City moves toward closing budget gap

BY NANCY SPENCER Herald Editor nspencer@delphosherald.com DELPHOS City Auditor Tom Jettinghoff had good news for Delphos City Council at Wednesdays special meeting. Loan payments totaling nearly $1.5 million have been deferred for six months. The Ohio Water Development Authority granted the deferment to extend the loans out six months past the scheduled last payment, keeping $525,000 in the Water Fund and nearly $900,000 in the Sewer Fund. The good news came on the heels of an executive session that opened the meeting. The session was called to discuss personnel matters, compensation of employees and contract negotiations. When council returned to regular session, Mayor Michael Gallmeier and Safety Service Director Greg Berquist announced a Memorandum of Understanding was reached with the firefighters union to delay the layoffs of the part-paid personnel for 45 days until the city receives word if it has been awarded a Safe Grant from Homeland Security and the Federal Emergency Management Agency for the full salaries and benefit packages of three full-time firefighters. We received a call from FEMA on Friday with questions for us to answer and then received a second call the same day to answer more, Berquist said. I would say they are giving us a good look for these funds. The grant would re-employ the three full-time firefighters who received lay-off notices in early October for two years. This would keep our fire department staffed at the previous levels, Berquist said. Berquist said the administration is in progressive talks with the firefighters union for upcoming contracts. Berquist also reported Acting Fire Chief Kevin Streets has gone over the standard operating guidelines for reduced staff. On an emergency medical call, the firefighter on duty will still act as a first responder with paramedics and EMTs to follow. On a fire call, two full-time firefighters will take two pieces of equipment and respond to the scene with part-paid personnel responding to the station for additional equipment and then to the scene. With the previous staffing levels, the part-paid personnel would respond directly to the scene with the equipment brought by the full-time personnel. Council also voted 4-3 to have city employees pick up 4.75 percent of the estimated 9.43-percent increase in health insurance premiums. Councilman Mark Clement was one of the no votes. He stated that he didnt believe the public would go for not passing on the full increase to employees with the citys finances in their current state. We are going to have to put in place water and sewer rate increases and were asking them to pass a .25-percent income tax increase, Clement said. I just dont agree with not passing the full increase on to the employees. The next regular city council meeting will begin at 7 p.m. Nov. 4.

Ottoville OKs $12K for water meter device

BY STEPHANIE GROVES Staff Writer sgroves@delphosherald.com OTTOVILLE Board of Public Affairs member Phil Hilvers presented a quote to council members for the purchase of a new Sensus AutoRead water meter reading device, software and support during the village council meeting Monday evening. BPA members originally spoke with council about purchasing the new equipment at Septembers council meeting and explained the benefits of the system. BPA member Dan Honigford said the handheld reader records the serial number of the meter and takes the reading of 100 meters at a time. After reading the data, it is uploaded and there is no handwritten information. In addition, the system wont charge a homeowner twice and notifies the user of

missed meters and flags highusage levels. Honigford said the handheld reader currently in use only takes eight readings and then the results have to be handwritten. Given the benefits of upgrading, council agreed to approve the purchase of the Sensus AutoRead for $12,069. Hilvers also reported in last months meeting that the villages water towers were recently inspected. The 1,000-gallon tower was found to be in good shape and the 2,000-gallon tower is in need of interior and exterior painting. He said the paint was flaking off and needs attention. Hilvers said BPA members are still working on getting quotes for the painting of the towers so they have a plan of action and can get the painting completed before the next inspection.

Fire dept. purchases new rescue equipment

Using various fundraising activities, (Turtle Races, Gun Raffles, and Firemens Convention), along with generous donations from Ottoville VFW Post 3740 and Ottoville Lady Otts, the Ottoville Fire Department was able to purchase a set of HURST Jaws of Life extrication tools for $22,050. This is a heavy-duty tool that can cut through metal or pry apart sections of an automobile. It is used especially to free people trapped in wrecked vehicles. During emergencies, when a few wasted seconds can cost lives, the Jaws of Life are brought in to remove victims from the crashed vehicle. These devices are also used to extricate victims from collapsed concrete and steel structures. Before being put into service, the department will go through extensive training in the proper and safe use of these tools. State Certified instructors will be used to conduct this class at an additional cost of more than $3,500. The department will continue to have fundraisers to purchase additional equipment that will enhance the usefulness of these tools. (Submitted photo)

BRIEFS
Lima Memorial offers free lung cancer screenings
Information submitted LIMA In observance of National Lung Cancer Awareness Month, Lima Memorial will offer a limited number of free low-dose lung screenings to those at high risk for the disease in November. The screening is for smokers and former smokers age 55-79 with a 30 pack-year history or age 50 with a 20 pack-year history and additional risk factors. The screenings will be funded by the Lima Memorial Hope Fund, developed to support Lima Memorial Health System patients with oncology related needs. For us, it really is about expanding accessibility, said G. Brooks Brennan, M.D., Medical Director of the Lima Memorial Radiology Department. The goal is to detect the disease process at its earliest state, to improve survivability. Launching the regions first lung cancer screening program, Lima Memorial seeks to connect patients at high risk for developing lung cancer with resources for early detection. A multidisciplinary team has developed a comprehensive program to better detect, treat and educate high risk individuals against lung cancer. We have tailored our program considering recommendations from multiple national medical organizations and will additionally provide patients with preventative options to educate them on reducing their risk for cancer, said Brennan. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the U.S.; each year, more people die of lung cancer than of colon, breast and prostate cancers combined. The American Cancer Society estimates there will be 228,190 new lung cancer cases diagnosed this year alone and that 72,220 women and 87,260 men will die from the disease, whose leading cause is tobacco use and second-hand smoke. For more information or to receive a screening assessment, call 419-226-5030.

Information submitted COLUMBUS The State of Ohio War of 1812 Bicentennial Commission announces a research contest open to any Ohio student ages 13-18 and in grades 7-12. The contest boasts $10,000 in cash prizes. We are very grateful to our sponsor, Medical Mutual of Ohio, for providing the funding for this contest, said Joseph H. Zerbey IV, chairman of the commission. The research project may take the form of an essay, a website, a podcast or a Powerpoint presentation. Our goal is for students to present historical narrative and interpretation in a compelling and informative manner, said Dr. Peter Hahn, a Commission member and chairman of the history department at The Ohio State University. Not only do we want them to conduct research for the contest, but we hope they share it with their classmates. We want all Ohio students to know the rich history of Ohio. Cash prizes will be awarded to the first-, second- and third-place winners in each grade category. First-place winners will each receive $3,000. Second-place winners will each receive $1,500 and third-place winners will each take home $500. Students in grades seven-nine should prepare submissions based on one of the following prompts: 1.

How important was the encroachment by U.S. farmers and pioneers upon Native American lands in the development of this alliance?

Herbicide treatment in fall helps in spring

Mark Loux, OSU weed specialist wrote the following article for fall weed control. Farmers who have existing infestations of winter annuals or marestail, or need to control biennials (wild carrot, poison hemlock) or perennials (dandelion, quackgrass, Canada thistle) should apply herbicides in the fall. The primary value of fall herbicide treatments is to prevent these weeds from getting too tall and hard to control in the spring. Fall emerged marestail tends to be the highest weed seed producer the following year. Here is a core group of fall applied herbicides that will control emerged weeds: For soybeans planted in the spring: Canopy EX or DF + 2,4-D, Glyphosate + 2,4D, or Metribuzin + 2,4-D (excluding dandelions). For corn planted next spring: Basis + 2,4-D, Glyphosate + 2,4-D, or Simazine + 2,4-D (except dandelion). Its possible to use other treatments in the fall, such as dicamba + 2,4-D, Autumn + glyphosate or 2,4-D, or Express + 2,4-D, but these are not more effective than the treatments listed above (and can be less effective on dandelion). Glyphosate + 2,4-D is the most effective for control of most perennial and biennial weeds, and glyphosate can be added to the other treatments to accomplish this. Combinations of 2,4-D plus Canopy or Basis have been the most consistently effective on dandelion. Only Canopy products provide substantial residual control of annual weeds that emerge in spring or early summer. Our research shows that it is largely a waste of money to apply residual soybean herbicides other than Canopy in the fall with the goal of controlling weeds that emerge after soybean planting the following spring, because they all largely dissipate during winter to the point of providing little to no activity the following spring. In most soybean fields it is a big mistake to apply all of the residual herbicide in the fall, with the goal of making only post emergence glyphosate applications the following year. It is possible to do this with Canopy products in fields with low populations and no glyphosate resistance issues, but most fields benefit from use of residual herbicides in the spring, along with some additional burndown herbicide if needed. This program (fall residual followed by POST glyphosate next year) is frequently doomed to fail in fields with marestail problems. Most of the marestail in the state is now glyphosate-resistant, and many populations are resistant to ALS inhibitors also. This means that it is impossible to control marestail after soybeans have emerged, unless the field is planted with LibertyLink soybeans. In those fields requiring a fall herbicide treatment for management of other winter annual weeds, dandelion, etc., where marestail also occurs, it is essential not to apply all of the residual herbicide in the fall. The majority of the residual herbicide should be applied in the spring, to maximize control of marestail that emerges in May and June. The most effective residual herbicides include two modes of action, to ensure effectiveness on ALS-resistant marestail. Examples: Envive, Valor XLT, Gangster, Sonic,

Authority First, Canopy DF + metribuzin. Where the marestail is resistant to ALS inhibitors as well as glyphosate, fall application of Canopy will fail to provide control of spring-emerging marestail. This will usually not be improved with application of a premix such as Valor XLT/Envive, Authority First/ Sonic, etc. Our research shows that the best approach where marestail are resistant to both glyphosate and ALS inhibitors: Apply glyphosate + 2,4-D in the fall and follow with broad-spectrum residual herbicides in spring combined with enough burndown herbicide to ensure complete control of marestail. This can be a challenge in the parts of the state where wet soils in spring can result in late planting and big marestail. But applying more residual herbicide in the fall wont solve this problem, and we have burndown options that can work on big marestail (Ignite + Sharpen, Ignite + metribuzin, glyphosate + Sharpen, etc.). See our factsheet on marestail control at: http:// agcrops.osu.edu/specialists/ weeds/marestail/marestailfact09_000.pdf/view Some farmers wonder whether they should spray their fields before or after planting cover crops. If you are using cereal rye as a cover crop, drop out the glyphosate and apply only the 2-4D to take out the marestail. Since cereal rye is a grass, the 2-4D has only a negative effect on broadleaf weeds. You can also apply the 2-4D in the early spring if you want the cover crop to continue growing OR use 2-4D with glyphosate to kill off the cover crop and weeds in the spring.

Continental farmer growing innovative new soybeans

Information submitted CONTINENTAL Hybrid cars, iPads and drones are just a few technologies developed to revolutionize various industries. Ohio farmers have adopted the same approach to innovation in their fields with high oleic soybeans. One example is Continental farmer Dan Heitzman. He planted this new type of soybeans this year to provide benefits to the food industry, as well as other soybean customers. It feels great to be on the cutting edge of innovation for the U.S. soybean industry, said Heitzman. We are promoting the use our soybean oil and developing new uses for it, as well. From restaurants to food manufacturers and grocery stores, soybean oil is the most commonly used vegetable oil in the United States. But, the oil from the Heitzmans new soybeans will give those same restaurants and food manufacturers an improved oil with better functionality that avoids trans fats and contains less saturated fats. For the product to be available in local stores and appear on food labels, farmers like Heitzman need to take advantage of the opportunity to grow these cutting edge varieties. As farmers, it is our responsibility to grow a product that is better for end-users and for our neighbors, said Heitzman. Ohio is one of few states chosen to roll out this innovation, which comes with the same proven genetics and agronomic packages farmers have come to expect. Seed companies developed high oleic soybeans during the last decade to ensure they perform comparably with farmers on-farm averages. And, Heitzman is taking the opportunity to be on the cutting edge of this technology. These high oleic varieties perform comparably with my on-farm average, said Heitzman. They are also comparable with the pest and disease packages my other varieties come in. Growing a product with advantages for customers will grow demand for

U.S. soybeans and increase farmers profit potential. High oleic soybean oil even has the potential to open up new industrial markets for farmers, with uses such as motor oils. Heitzman is growing a product that will meet customer needs and grow not only his business, but also the profitability of the entire industry. I like growing these new soybeans, said Heitzman. Its good for me as a farmer and for the industry to open up new potential markets. It takes food companies two years to incorporate a new ingredient into their products, so consumers may not see the results right away. But, Ohio farmers can begin filling the demand now. Farmers who are interested in joining Heitzman in this innovation should contact their local seed or processor representative today to find out about marketing contracts suitable for their individual operations. Or, visit www.SoyInnovation.com for contact information for elevators and processors ready to collect and contract high oleic soybeans. The 69 farmer-directors of USB oversee the investments of the soy checkoff to maximize profit opportunities for all U.S. soybean farmers. These volunteers invest and leverage checkoff funds to increase the value of U.S. soy meal and oil, to ensure U.S. soybean farmers and their customers have the freedom and infrastructure to operate, and to meet the needs of U.S. soys customers. As stipulated in the federal Soybean Promotion, Research and Consumer Information Act, the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service has oversight responsibilities for USB and the soy checkoff.

Langer needs win and help to take top prize

By RICK EYMER Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO Bernhard Langer knows what he needs to do at TPC Harding Park to win the Charles Schwab Cup season points title and $1 million annuity. And it isnt going to be easy. Kenny Perry enters the season-ending Charles Schwab Cup Championship with a 612-point lead over Langer. Langer, who lost to Perry in a playoff Sunday in San Antonio in the AT&T Championship, not only needs the 880 points that go to the tournament winner, he needs Perry to finish sixth or worse. Langer said he would focus on his game and not worry about anything else. Its hard enough, he adds, to think through his own approach.

Wildcats heading to Regional finals with OT thriller

By Charlie Warnimont DHI Correspondent news@delphosherald.com TIFFIN Kalida and Ottawa Hills were involved in a defensive struggle Wednesday evening. After both teams scored a first-half goal, the two defenses took over this Division III boys soccer regional semifinal. Playing through a scoreless second half and one overtime period, 15 minutes separated the two teams from going through the penalty kick phase of the match. However, a defensive foul on the Green Bears gave the Wildcats an opportunity to win the game on a penalty kick in overtime. After a Kalida player was fouled going into the box against two Green Bear defenders, Kalida was awarded a penalty kick. Senior Ian Richey converted the opportunity for the Wildcats, setting off a celebration as Kalida advanced in the tournament with a 2-1 win over Ottawa Hills at Frost-Kalnow Stadium at Columbian High School. The win sends Kalida (15-2-3) to the Division III regional finals Saturday at noon at Findlays Elmer Graham Stadium against Mansfield Christian (191). Mansfield Christian was a 2-1 winner over Elyria Catholic. Ottawa Hills ends its season at 12-8. Kalida had the ball to start the second overtime period and immediately went on the attack, sending a long pass into the Ottawa Hills end of the field. After a throw-in by the Green Bears, the Wildcats were able to get the ball back as a Kalida player dribbled into the box, where he was tripped by an Ottawa Hills defender. The referee immediately signaled for a penalty kick to the dismay of the Ottawa Hills squad 36 seconds into the second overtime. Kalida coach Mark Czubik sent Richey, a senior, up to take the shot and he had to wait a little longer as Ottawa Hills goalie Jack Hylant argued about where the ball was being spotted. Once the referee signaled for play to resume, Richey struck the ball and snuck it past Hylant into the left corner of the net, keeping the Wildcats season going. When you are in that situation, you have to keep under control and I settled down, Richey said. I just had to put it away. The mark was about 15 yards out and I thought that was a little too far. I stepped it off and he (Hylant) didnt like that. What he was doing didnt work. My dad puts me in those situations, so I was ready. I can go anywhere with the ball and I put it in the lower left corner. Czubik was confident Richey was the player he wanted at the PK line in that situation. I wont say I knew he was going to make it but I was pretty confident he was going to make it, Czubik said. Hes done that his entire career for me. He is a fantastic, wonderful player. While Czubik was pleased with the outcome, he knows the call could have went either way at that point in the contest. It looked like a trip to me, Czubik added. You could play that over with 10 different referees and get 10 different opinions; he made the call. Its a tough way to lose, obviously, but were not going to give it back. The goal ended a night where both teams were unable to capitalize on the few scoring chances they had in the contest. Kalida appeared to score a goal with 25:13 left in the opening half when Devin Kortokrax knocked in a shot. However, the Wildcats were called for a foul, negating the goal. Kalida scored with 19:22 left in the first half when Austin Swift knocked in a shot after getting a pass from Andrew Krouse. Ottawa Hills tied the match with 4:52 left in the half on a 35-yard shot by Nick Hauck. Kalida keeper Brent Hovest appeared to have a bead on the ball, until it took a bad hop in front of him and glanced off his shoulder and into the net. That would be all the scoring until the second overtime.

Kalida senior Ian Richey approaches a penalty kick late in the second overtime Wednesday of the Wildcats boys soccer Regional semifinal, while an Ottawa Hills player appeals to a higher authority. However, Richey was on target to give Kalida a 2-1 victory and advance them in the tournament. (Delphos Herald/Charlie Warnimont)

From the hilarious to the serious and in between

By JIM METCALFE Sports Editor jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com When I saw this article, I started laughing. It reminded me of a famous or is it infamous? moment in movie history. A British soccer fan was sent to jail for a year for drumroll, please punching a police horse in the head after his team Sunderland lost a derby match. It seems one Barry Rogerson got rather, well, upset he was already drunk after his team lost 3-0 to fierce rival Newcastle United and violence to these hooligans that is a loving nickname for these partisans is far from rare. He was accused of first clapping in the face of the horse, Bud, then punched the poor beast working for West Yorkshire Police. Not only does Rogerson have to spend a year in jail but, worst of all, he cannot attend any soccer matches in the Kingdom for six years. It reminded me of when the late Alex Karras, playing Mongo, bashed a horse in the head and knocked him out. Wonder if Mr. Rogerson knocked Bud

out or if he broke his own hand? Did the man even feel it? I changed my mind. At first, I was going to write about the two scenes Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant threw on the sideline in Sundays loss to the Detroit Lions. I was going to term them tantrums that children would be punished for, let alone how adults should not act. Then I heard the audio and somewhat altered my perception. It still is not the way to address issues during a game; having to be restrained . I understand that he is passionate and wants to win badly but, I assume, so does everyone else on that team. If not, they should be summarily fired. See MUSINGS, page 7

Slumping Dolphins face 1st-place Bengals

By STEVEN WINE Associated Press MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. Emerging from the Miami Dolphins complex through a back door, Ryan Tannehill wrinkled his nose as he walked past a stack of fertilizer for the practice fields. Ugh, it smells like sulfur, Tannehill observed. The Dolphins aroma is becoming tough to ignore. After a 3-0 start, Miami (3-4) has lost four consecutive games, with each defeat more pungent than the last. Especially odoriferous was the latest loss, when the Dolphins blew a 2-touchdown lead in the second half at New England. With little time to regroup, theyll try to revive fading playoff hopes today against AFC North leader Cincinnati (6-2). We are in a tough spot, obviously, coming off four losses, Tannehill added. At home, short week, a very good opponent its a big game for us. The Bengals are happily heading in the opposite direction with four consecutive wins. Another victory would give them a 3-game lead, which would be the biggest in any division. Its a lot of fun to come out and play the way weve been doing, quarterback Andy Dalton said. It has been a lot of fun for the fans and everybody thats in Cincinnati that is rooting for us. Theres a lot of pride about our team and

Here are five keys to watch as the Bengals try to continue their streak and the Dolphins try to end theirs: WHO CAN GET OPEN?: Speedy Marvin Jones set a Bengals record against the Jets last week with four touchdown catches, which is four times the number he totaled as a rookie last year. It was a breakout performance by the former fifthround draft pick. Jones emergence ensures additional headaches for a defense that must also contend with Bengals All-Pro receiver A.J. Green.

Red Sox win WS title, beat Cards 6-1 in Game 6

By RONALD BLUM Associated Press BOSTON There hasnt been a party like this in New England for nearly a century. Turmoil to triumph. Worst to first. David Ortiz and the Boston Red Sox, baseballs bearded wonders, capped their remarkable turnaround by beating the St. Louis Cardinals 6-1 in Game 6 on Wednesday night to win their third World Series championship in 10 seasons. Shane Victorino, symbolic of these resilient Sox, returned from a stiff back and got Boston rolling with a 3-run double off the Green Monster against rookie sensation Michael Wacha. John Lackey became the first pitcher to start and win a Series clincher for two different teams, allowing one run over 6 2/3 innings 11 years after his Game 7 victory as an Angels rookie in 2002. With fans roaring on every pitch and cameras flashing, Koji Uehara struck out Matt Carpenter for the final out. The Japanese pitcher jumped into the arms of catcher David Ross while Red Sox players rushed from the dugout and bullpen as the Boston theme Dirty Water played on the public-address system. And the Red Sox didnt have to fly the trophy home. For the first time since Babe Ruths team back in 1918, Boston won the title at Fenway Park. The 101-year-old ballpark, oldest in the majors, was packed with 38,447 singing, shouting fans anticipating a celebration 95 years in the making. There wasnt the cowboy-up comeback charm of The Idiots from 2004, who swept St. Louis to end an 86-year title drought. There wasnt that cool efficiency of the 2007 team that swept Colorado. This time, they were Boston Strong playing for a city shaken by the marathon bombings in April. After late-season slumps in 2010 and 2011, the embarrassing revelations of a chicken-and-beer clubhouse culture that contributed to the ouster of manager Terry Francona and the daily tumult of Bobby Valentines 1-year flop, these Red Sox grew on fans. Just like the long whiskers on the players faces, starting with Jonny Gomes scruffy spring training beard. Across the Northeast, from Connecticuts Housatonic River up to the Aroostook in Maine, Bostons eighth championship will be remembered for all the beard-yanking bonding. Ortiz, the only player remaining from the 2004 champs, had a Ruthian World Series. He batted .688 (11-for-16) with two homers, six RBIs and eight walks including four in the finale for a .760 on-base percentage in 25 plate appearances. Even slumping Stephen Drew delivered a big hit in Game 6, sending Wachas first pitch of the fourth into the right-center bullpen. By the time the inning was over, RBI singles by Mike Napoli and Victorino had made it 6-0 and the Red Sox were on their way. The win capped an emotional season for the Red Sox, one heavy with the memory of the events that unfolded on Patriots Day, when three people were killed and more than 260 wounded in bombing attacks at the Boston Marathon. The Red Sox wore Boston Strong logos on their left sleeves and erected a large emblem on the Green Monster as a constant reminder. A B Strong logo was mowed into center-field grass at Fenway. Among the players blamed for the indifferent culture at the end of the Francona years, Lackey took the mound two days shy of the second anniversary of his elbow surgery and got his first Series win since the 2002 clincher. He pitched shutout ball into the seventh, when Carlos Beltrans RBI single ended the Cardinals slump with runners in scoring position at 0-for-14. Junichi Tazawa came in with the bases loaded and retired Allen Craig on an inning-ending grounder to first. Brandon Workman followed in the eighth and Uehara finished. St. Louis had been seeking its second title in three seasons but the Cardinals sputtered. Symbolic of the teams struggles, reliever Trevor Rosenthal tripped while throwing a pitch to Ortiz in the eighth, balking Dustin Pedroia to second. Pedroia had brought back memories of Carlton Fisks 1975 Game 6-winning home run, sending a first-inning drive about 10 feet foul of the Green Monster foul pole and waving his left arm once to try to urge the ball fair as he came out of the batters box. Lackey escaped a 2-on, none-out jam in the second when he retired Matt Adams and David Freese on flyouts and, after a wild pitch, struck out Jon Jay. Boston wasted a similar threat in the bottom half, then went ahead on the third. Jacoby Ellsbury singled leading off and went to second on Pedroias grounder. Ortiz was intentionally walked, Napoli struck out and Gomes was hit above the left elbow with a pitch, loading the bases. Victorino, wearing red, white and blue spikes with an American flag motif, had been 0-for-10 in the Series and missed the previous two games with a bad back. Dropped from second to sixth in the batting order, he took two balls and a called strike, then turned on a 93-mph fastball and sent it high off the Green Monster, the 37-foot-high wall in left. Gomes slid home as Yadier Molina took Matt Hollidays 1-hop throw and applied the tag, then argued with plate umpire Jim Joyce. Victorino, pumped with emotion, went to third on the throw and pounded his chest with both fists three times.

Gordon and Gustafson gunning for the leaders

By JENNA FRYER Associated Press CHARLOTTE, N.C. As Jeff Gordon crossed the finish line at Martinsville Speedway to pick up his first win of the season, the chemistry was clicking between the No. 24 crew. You guys are awesome! Gordon screamed on his radio. Never give up! What a fight! Thats right, champ! replied crew chief Alan Gustafson. The relationship wasnt so rosy three months ago, when driver and crew chief had a talk following a 10thplace finish at New Hampshire. Gordon had expected a win that day, at minimum a strong finish, and he failed to lead a single lap. I had a bad attitude and he and I had a heart-to-heart conversation afterward, and Im so proud of him for stepping up, Gordon said. The things that I said, the attitude I had, was just not the way we were going to get ourselves into Victory Lane. To me, that turned things around. I was like, You know what? Ive got to go and work as hard as I can, give these guys everything Ive got because theyre working their butts off and lets pull it together. I think from that race on, we started seeing improvement and sometimes youve got to have those moments, and Im proud that we did. Gordon slowly pulled himself into contention for the Chase for the Sprint Cup Championship and might have made it in if not for late-race shenanigans by several different drivers in the deciding race at Richmond. NASCAR chairman Brian France ultimately ruled that Gordon was unfairly affected by the manipulations and took the unprecedented step of adding him to the Chase field as a 13th driver. Hes made the most of his chance, slowly climbing through the standings through the seven Chase races. Gordons win on Sunday moved him into third place, just 27 points behind Matt Kenseth and Jimmie Johnson, who go to Texas Motor Speedway tied for the lead. Gustafson called the post-New Hampshire talk a reset. We said, Hey, being negative is not going to do any good, were going to have to go at this and be positive and fight hard and put ourselves in position and try to win some races, Gustafson recalled. Once France put them into the Chase two days before the opening race, the focus has been forward. It is a special chance to compete for a championship at this level and you dont know how many of those youre going to get, Gustafson added. When we didnt have it for a couple days, that was one of the most terrible feelings in the world. Were not going to squander this opportunity. It wont be easy to catch Kenseth and Johnson; Gordon knows he needs to race for wins over the final three stops. Gustafson broached splitting with Gordon during their discussion but Gordon said he believes in his crew chief and is proud of what theyve accomplished this season. When youre Jeff Gordons crew chief, a lot of people like to say things when things arent going well and it makes it even tougher to be in his position, Gordon added. So when things arent going well, the toughest thing is to see him go through criticism or to criticize himself. When were not doing well, I can tell you, Im not questioning him, Im questioning myself. Once he stops believing in me and I stop believing in him, then were done. Luckily for us, that has not been the case this year and thats why I think weve been able to stay so strong and come back and be where were at today. ___ CONTACT SPORT: NASCAR chairman Brian France has made it clear he likes exciting racing and an on-track product that has fans talking for days. He got it at Martinsville Speedway in the Truck Series race when Ty Dillon spun Kevin Harvick while the two were fighting for position late in the race. Harvick was running second at the time and the contact from Dillon led to flared tempers on pit road and harsh words after the incident. All of that is a part of NASCAR, France said Tuesday on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio. When youre talking about late in the race, listen, this is a contact sport. We have gotten where weve gotten because were able to have the best drivers in the world, the best team owners, then give them a package that creates the most exciting racing. We dont always get it right but were really working diligently to make sure that we do as much as possible. France expects that level of intensity to carry over into the final three Sprint Cup Series races of the season. Kenseth and Johnson go into Texas this weekend tied for the points lead, with Gordon 27 points behind in third and Harvick just one point behind Gordon. I hope the last three events go down to the wire and it looks like they will, France added. This is a very close battle going down to the wire and what we saw about Martinsville, again, this is a contact sport. You are going to have times late in the race where things are going to happen. We expect in a truck race or any race, drivers with a faster car to have contract. Thats NASCAR thats what were about, so I expect tight racing over the final three.

Golf

All I am writing is do it with some class. Be professional and act like a man, not a spoiled brat; treat your teammates the same as you want them to treat you. Slamming your helmet is a childish act, especially when you might be just as guilty of any breakdown as anyone else. Also probably not a smart thing to protect your head in a game! Instead of claiming you have no problem with it, owner/ GM/director of player personnel/true coach/etc. Jerry Jones needs to start taking these guys to task instead of trying to be their buddy. You are paying these guys good money that, quite frankly, I am not sure ANY of them are truly earning. Unless you dont give a rats rear end about your beloved Boys and want to continue this ridiculous mediocrity for Americas Team! By the way, I have always, always need I add always? hated that putrid moniker. Sometimes, good things do end up happening. It seems that NFL Hall-of-Fame wide receiver Lance Alworth had his Super Bowl VI ring for the Cowboys 24-3 win over Miami stolen 21 years ago. Well, he finally got it back the other day. Good for him. Must be stinking nice to have this kind of money! Or get it from someone! I am referring to the approval for the Atlanta Falcons proposed new stadium to replace the Georgia Dome. It seems they want to eventually demolish the Georgia Dome what the heck is wrong with it? after they build an estimated $1.2 billion (expect that to grow to $2 billion before its all said and done!) multi-purpose open-air stadium in time for the 2017 season. Personal-seat licenses and the citys hotel-motel tax will supposedly pay for $200 million, while the team and the NFL will pay the rest. Hmmmm! Think it will happen exactly that way? You wonder if this will be something to really worry about by the powers-that-be in the NFL. I am referring to Washington Redskins safety Brandon Meriwethers earlier comments about taking out a receivers knees instead of paying another fine and/or getting another suspension for a helmet-to-helmet hit. You wonder if that is NOT on the minds of other defensive backs in The League because they are afraid of hitting ANYONE high, even when it isnt H-to-H. I almost cant blame them. At the same time, one of the unwritten rules of professional football is you dont take a guys knees out and possibly end their careers. In fact, any survey I have seen suggests that players prefer to get hit high rather than low.

Bengals

stretch of Daltons career has come during the Bengals winning streak. The third-year pro has started to play like a franchise quarterback, setting a franchise record for a 3-game span with 11 touchdown passes, including a career-high five last week. His three consecutive 300-yard games tie the team record set by Ken Anderson, whose No. 14 is worn by Dalton.

Iraq seeking new US aid after pushing out troops

BRUSSELS (AP) The backlash in Europe over U.S. spying is threatening an agreement that generates tens of billions of dollars in trans-Atlantic business every year and negotiations on another pact worth many times more. A growing number of European officials are calling for the suspension of the Safe Harbor agreement that lets U.S. companies process commercial and personal data sales, emails, photos from customers in Europe. This little-known but vital deal allows more than 4,200 American companies to do business in Europe, including Internet giants like Apple, Google, Facebook and Amazon. Revelations of the extent of U.S. spying on its European allies is also threatening to undermine one of President Barack Obamas top transAtlantic goals: a sweeping freetrade agreement that would add an estimated $138 billion (100 billion euros) a year to each economys gross domestic product. Top EU officials say the trust needed for the negotiations has been shattered. For ambitious and complex negotiations to succeed, there needs to be trust among the negotiating partners, EU Justice Commissioner Viviane Reding said Wednesday in a speech at Yale University. At the very least, the Europeans are expected to demand that the U.S. significantly strengthen its privacy laws to give consumers much more control over how companies use their personal data and extend those rights to European citizens, maybe even giving them the right to sue American companies in U.S. courts. The Europeans had long been pressing these issues with the Americans. But since former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden began to leak surprising details on the extent of U.S. surveillance in Europe, the European demands have grown teeth.

Social Security benefits to go up by 1.5 percent

WASHINGTON (AP) Social Security benefits will rise 1.5 percent in January, giving millions of retired and disabled workers an average raise of $19 a month to keep up with the cost of living. The increase is among the smallest since automatic adjustments were adopted in 1975, and reflects the fact that consumer prices havent gone up much in the past year. The annual cost-of-living adjustment, or COLA, is based on a government measure of inflation that was released Wednesday. Yea. Whoop-de-do, said Lance Colvin, a retired office worker in Kirkland, Wash. Thats my opinion. Automatic COLAs were adopted in 1975 so that benefits for people on fixed incomes would keep pace with rising prices. Some advocates for older Americans, however, complain that the COLA sometimes falls short, especially for people with high medical costs. Michael Hartzog of Charleston, S.C., said the small COLA will make it difficult to keep up with his wifes medical bills. Well probably need to reduce our spending even more, Hartzog said. I dont know exactly how. Hartzog, 63, is retired after working 38 years at the Social Security Administration in South Carolina. He said his federal pension and Social Security benefits are affected by the COLA. The COLA affects benefits for more than one-fifth of the country: nearly 58 million Social Security recipients, as well as benefits for millions of disabled veterans, federal retirees and people who get Supplemental Security Income, the disability program for the poor. Social Security pays retired workers an average of $1,272 a month. A 1.5 percent raise comes to about $19. Benefits are based on lifetime earnings. The more you make, the higher your benefit to a point. For someone who retired this year at age 66, the maximum monthly benefit is $2,533. That person will get a raise of about $38 a month. The amount of wages subject to Social Security taxes is also going up. Social Security is funded by a 12.4 percent tax on the first $113,700 in wages earned by a worker, with half paid by employers and the other half withheld from workers pay. The wage threshold will increase to $117,000 next year, the Social Security Administration said. Wages above the threshold are not subject to Social Security taxes. About 165 million workers pay Social Security taxes. About 10 million earn wages above the threshold, the agency said.

New security issues surface for health website

WASHINGTON (AP) President Barack Obama claimed full responsibility Wednesday for fixing his administrations much-maligned health insurance website as a new concern surfaced: a government memo pointing to security worries, laid out just days before the launch. On Capitol Hill, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius apologized to frustrated people trying to sign up, declaring that she is accountable for the failures but also defending the historic health care overhaul. The website sign-up problems will be fixed by Nov. 30, she said, and the gaining of health insurance will make a positive difference in the lives of millions of Americans. Obama underscored the administrations unhappiness with the problems so far: Theres no excuse for it, he said during a Boston speech to promote his signature domestic policy achievement. And I take full responsibility for making sure it gets fixed ASAP. The website HealthCare.gov was still experiencing outages as Sebelius faced a new range of questions at the House Energy and Commerce Committee about a security memo from her department. It revealed that the troubled website was granted a temporary security certificate on Sept. 27, just four days before it went live on Oct. 1. The memo, obtained by The Associated Press, said incomplete testing created uncertainties that posed a potentially high security risk for the website. It called for a six-month mitigation program, including ongoing monitoring and testing. Security issues raise major new concerns on top of the long list of technical problems the administration is grappling with. You accepted a risk on behalf of every user that put their personal financial information at risk, Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Mich., told Sebelius, citing the memo. Amazon would never do this. ProFlowers would never do this. Kayak would never do this. This is completely an unacceptable level of security. Sebelius countered that the system is secure, even though the sites certificate, known in government parlance as an authority to operate, is of a temporary nature. A permanent certificate will be issued only when all security issues are addressed, she stressed. Spokeswoman Joanne Peters added separately: When consumers fill out their online applications, they can trust that the information theyre providing is protected by stringent security standards and that the technology underlying the application process has been tested and is secure. Security testing happens on an ongoing basis using industry best practices. The security certificate is required under longstanding federal policy before any government computer system can process, store or transmit agency data. The temporary certificate was approved by Medicare chief Marilyn Tavenner, the senior HHS official closest to the rollout. No major security breaches have been reported.

NEW YORK (AP) Smoking may be a bad habit but New York City lawmakers want their residents to be older and wiser before deciding to take it up. The New York City Council voted overwhelmingly Wednesday to raise the age for purchasing cigarettes from 18 to 21, a move that would make the nations most populous city among only a handful in the United States to target young smokers by barring them from buying smokes. It also approved a bill that sets a minimum $10.50-a-pack price for tobacco cigarettes and steps up law enforcement on illegal tobacco sales. This will literally save many, many lives, said an emotional City Councilman James Gennaro, the bills sponsor, whose mother and father died from tobacco-related illnesses. Ive
