An inside view of the poacher’s world

Special to The Daily Sentinel

POMEROY — To catch a wildlife
poacher, or to take down a poaching ring, you have to immerse yourself into their world.
That was one of the points made
by R.T. Stewart, Meigs County resident and retired undercover investigator for the Ohio Department
of Natural Resources’ Division of
Wildlife who spoke at Tuesday
night’s annual meeting and banquet
of the Meigs Soil and Water Conservation District.
Approximately 100 people attended the annual meeting which
was held at the Meigs High School
cafeteria.
Stewart, is the subject and co-author of the recently released book
“Poachers were my Prey: Eighteen
Years as an Undercover Wildlife
Officer” as told by noted Ohio outdoor writer W.H. “Chip” Gross. For
nearly two decades as an undercover wildlife officer with the Ohio
Department of Natural Resources’
Division of Wildlife, Stewart infiltrated poaching rings throughout
Ohio and the country.
Stewart gave attendees an inside
look at the world of game poachers,
a world he was forced to embrace
in order to catch them. The poachers were outlaws in the literal sense
of the word, most of them were no
strangers to law enforcement and

POMEROY — A misunderstanding about how the
government shutdown may be affecting the WIC (women, infants, and children) program, administered by the
Meigs County Health Department, received some clarification today from Leanne Cunningham, BSN, RN,CLC
Meigs WIC director.
“In light of the current shutdown of the United States
Government, the Meigs County WIC Office has been
fielding many calls from participants who have seen or
heard inaccurate information regarding the future of the
Ohio WIC Program through social media sites, such as
Facebook and Twitter,” said Cunningham.
The information being shared is stating that the Ohio
WIC offices are now closed or that Ohio WIC offices will
be closing on a certain date. “That information is inaccurate,” said Cunningham. “In reality, Ohio WIC and Meigs
County WIC are operating business as usual. There is
no definitive date for any Ohio WIC office to close or to
delay services at this time.”
She emphasized that participants should continue to
come to their WIC appointments as scheduled and spend
their WIC coupons just as they always have.
“Unfortunately, we do not know how long this shutdown will continue, but certainly, as the local WIC office learns information from the State WIC office, we will
share accurate information with our participants and the
public, ” she concluded.
Any questions may be directed to the Meigs County
WIC Program office at 740-992-0392.

POMEROY — Plans for Pomeroy’s downtown observance of Halloween on Oct. 31, and for decorating the village for the Christmas holidays, along with electing a new
president, were highlights of the Tuesday meeting of the
Pomeroy Merchants Association held at Peoples Bank.
Luke Ortman, director of the Meigs County Chamber
of Commerce, reported on plans for the village Halloween
party. He said that registration of children will take place
in the Court Street mini park and that the children will be
taken though the downtown area in groups where treats
will be given out by the merchants. Appropriate music for
the season will be played and a photographer will be on

open for parking cars.
President Dan Short reported that new lights and garlands for use in decorating the downtown period light
posts for Christmas have been purchased by the association. Since the downtown businesses will be observing

would ordinarily begin with complaints by landowners and sportsmen, like those phoned in on the division’s TIP line (1-800-POACHER)
followed by preliminary exploration
to determine if a more detailed investigation was needed. If that was the
case, then Stewart would move in
and immerse himself in the poachers’
environment, generally portraying a
poacher himself in order to gain their
trust.
Through means including the
use of secret surveillance he would
amass evidence until regular officers
would move in and arrest all of the
suspects simultaneously, with all of
the evidence they possessed the division had a 100 percent conviction
record.
He used a series of often-colorful
videotape clips to give the audience
a glimpse into the poaching business. Some of the clips were comical,
including a poacher who boasted of
only needing one rifle cartridge to
kill a deer, and who then proceeded
to lose the cartridge on the floor of
his van. Other videos included a deer
being shot out of a landowner’s yard,
a tape where an unseen landowner
apparently returned fire, and then
finally a daytime scene with a man
encouraging his young son to shoot
a robotic deer from the road, and
then taking a shot at it himself before
wildlife officers swooped in to make
an arrest.
Stewart began his wildlife career in
1989 and was first assigned as a wildlife officer in Union County. Within
three years he made the transition
to wildlife investigator where he developed and used his skills first in
1992 in Operation Clan Bake, which
established undercover operations as
a permanent part of the wildlife law
enforcement program.
A graduate of Meigs High School,
Stewart comically pointed out the
spot in the cafeteria where he sat in
detention hall, commenting that his
life has now brought him full circle.

WHEELING, W.Va. (AP) — The U.S. Marshals Service
says a man with an assault-type rifle fired 15-20 shots at
the federal courthouse in Wheeling before security officers returned fire, critically injuring the man.
Chief deputy Mike Claxton of the Marshals Service in
northern West Virginia said one officer was injured by
shattered glass inside the courthouse but no other injuries
were reported during the incident Wednesday afternoon.
Claxton said the gunman was located in a parking lot
across from the courthouse in downtown Wheeling. He
said officials are attempting to determine a motive.

tion that the defendant used his VIP
connections to prod donors.
The defense counters that Thompson’s connections show the legitimacy of the charity.
In an attempt by defense lawyers to
show that Thompson’s relationships
were authentic, Steen was shown a
poster-size photo similar to the one
on the coffee mugs. He said he wasn’t
sure where it was taken, but it was
apparently in a formal setting.
Thompson showered politicians,
often Republicans, with donations.
Last week, the judge rejected a renewed defense request to subpoena
testimony from leading Ohio Republicans including U.S. House Speaker
John Boehner.
Later Wednesday, a Montville,
N.J., telemarketing executive, Mark
Gelvan, testified that Thompson set
state-by-state fundraising limits for
the work that Gelvan’s firm did for
the charity. The aim was to avoid
triggering costly audits tied to instate fundraising totals, Gelvan said.

His firm was paid more than
$41,000 for fundraising during 2003
and 2004, Gelvan said.
The prosecutor sought to track the
donations by eliciting testimony from
Gelvan that his firm was obligated to
deposit the money in accounts controlled by the charity. Prosecutors
have said most of the nearly $3 million raised in Ohio vanished.
On cross-examination, defense attorney Joseph Patituce attacked Gelvan’s reliability by challenging the
accuracy of fundraising reports made
to state regulators.
Gelvan acknowledged numerous
documents entered into evidence
lacked notice that they had been received by state regulators or didn’t
reflect active fundraising drives.
Thompson was indicted in 2010
and disappeared for almost two
years. He was arrested last year in
Portland, Ore., where agents and
deputy marshals found him with
fake IDs and a suitcase containing
$980,000 in cash.

Taylor confirms health site pesky
COLUMBUS,
Ohio
(AP) — Ohio’s insurance
director said Wednesday
that while exploring the
federal government’s website on the new health care
system, she has encountered the same computer
glitches and delays that
have frustrated many consumers looking for insurance coverage.
Lt. Gov. Mary Taylor, a
Republican and one of the
state’s more vocal critics of
President Barack Obama’s
health care overhaul, told
a group of small business
owners that her insurance
department is asking people to be patient and to try
the healthcare.gov website
during off hours.
“Maybe if we all get up
at midnight and try to get
on the system — well, if we
all do, it won’t work,” she
joked to Ohio members of
the National Federation of
Independent Business.

subsidized by the federal
government, through the
new insurance markets created by the 2010 law. The
markets opened on Oct. 1.
Consumers have until Feb.
15 to enroll in a health care
plan to avoid penalties for
not having insurance. Coverage starts on Jan. 1.
Ohio chose to let federal
authorities run its online
marketplace, which has
been snarled by technical
glitches and long waits.
Taylor said she went to the
website because she wanted to know how it worked.

“I’ve been on,” Taylor
told reporters. “The note
that comes up to be patient, high volume — experiencing high volume of
users. You know, it is frustrating.”
Those promoting the nation’s new health insurance
system have said that consumers still have months
to make decisions and that
it’s more important for people to take their time and
make an informed choice
— even if that means waiting a month or more.
Taylor told the business
owners that she started
bracing for problems this

summer, when the insurance department struggled
to send Washington information by computer on
Ohio’s health plans. “This
is what we expected,” she
said.
Taylor said she doesn’t
know how many Ohioans
have successfully enrolled
in the new markets because Washington is running them.
Also Oct. 1, the state
launched a new benefits
website to help people find
out whether they are eligible for Medicaid, the federal-state health program
for the poor and disabled.
The website has been directing people to the federal health care exchange if
they aren’t eligible for the
Medicaid program. And
under guidance from the
state, county offices also
are steering people to the
new insurance markets if
they don’t meet Medicaid
qualifications.

Stimulus hike in food stamps set to end
CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — A temporary increase in food stamps expires Oct. 31, meaning for millions of
Americans, the benefits that help put
food on the table won’t stretch as far
as they have for the past four years.
Food stamps — actually the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program — go to 47 million Americans
a month, almost half of them children
and teenagers.
“Every week is a struggle as it is,”
said Heidi Leno, 43, who lives in
Concord with her husband, 9-yearold daughter and twin 5-year-olds.
“We hate living paycheck to paycheck and you have to decide what
gets paid.”
Starting in 2009, the federal stimulus pumped $45.2 billion into SNAP,
increasing what would have been a
monthly benefit of $588 a month to
$668 for an average household of
four. In November, that same family will start getting $632 a month,
about a 5 percent cut.
The benefits, which go to 1 in 7
Americans, fluctuate based on factors including food prices, inflation

and income.
Families and providers worry the
expiration of the stimulus bump
comes at a particularly bad time:
— Though Census figures from
September show poverty remains
stuck at around 22 percent, in some
states, including New Hampshire,
the number of children living in poverty is climbing.
— The House voted to cut almost
$4 billion a year from the roughly
$80 billion-a-year program in an effort to find savings in the budget. A
Senate bill would cut around $400
million a year.
— In cold weather states, even a
slight decrease in the benefit can
trigger a decision between heating
and eating. Heating fuel prices are
expected to increase this year too,
the government warned this week.
And the program could face another shortfall if the government is
shuttered past Nov. 1.
Danielle Walker, 37, was shopping
at a discount Aldi store in Morgantown, W.Va., with what little cash
she had, the end of September still

three days away. Her food stamps
had run out because of a previous cut
from $500 to $61 a month that came
about when the father of her 12-yearold son died, giving the boy survivor
benefits that changed the family’s income level.
With two disabled sons, 12 and 16,
each with different dietary requirements, she can barely imagine how
she’ll absorb another cut. So, she’ll
visit food pantries, clip coupons and
shop at the least expensive stores
she can find. She also explains her
situation to manufacturers, who send
coupons.
“I’m a mom who does outside-ofthe-box things,” she said, adding, “I
have to feed my boys.”
But the stimulus was never intended to be a permanent source of money, said former New Hampshire Sen.
Judd Gregg. He opposed the stimulus, calling it at the time “a great deal
of money not well spent.”
“All stimulus funding was to be
temporary,” Gregg, now the CEO
of a banking industry group, said
Wednesday.

peppers US courthouse

CLEVELAND (AP) — A onetime
fugitive charged in a suspected $100
million charity fraud highlighted his
GOP-leaning political connections
and tried to duck state audits, witnesses testified Wednesday at his
trial as the prosecution tried to show
that the charity wasn’t what he made
it out to be.
The defendant, who identifies
himself as Bobby Thompson, ran the
United States Navy Veterans Association of Tampa, Fla. Authorities say
he is a 67-year-old Harvard-trained
attorney and former military intelligence officer named John Donald
Cody.
The first witness of the day, Gary
Steen of Tampa, Fla., testified about
$30,000 worth of dental work he did
for Thompson and said Thompson
showed his appreciation with a gift of
three coffee mugs showing him with
a smiling President George W. Bush.
“I was impressed that he was in

NEW YORK (AP) — The U.S. keeps stumbling
from one budget crisis to another, but the damage
never sticks.
Global investors still see it as the world’s best place
to park their money. Even the threat of an unprecedented government default doesn’t seem to have
dulled the allure of Teflon America. The 10-year
Treasury note, the bedrock of the government’s debt
market, has attracted more money in recent weeks,
not less, and the stock market is still close to record
highs.
Still, the squabbling in Washington over the debt
ceiling, which follows squabbling over automatic
spending cuts earlier this year, is severely testing investor patience. Many fear a default would be a tipping point, sending bond and stock prices plunging.
The repeated budgetary brinkmanship is making
some question their faith in the U.S.
“The more times you give politicians a chance to
completely muck something up, the more chance …
they will do it,” says Gary Jenkins, managing director of Swordfish Research in London. “If this were
to become a regular occurrence, then, who knows?”
The U.S. Treasury has warned it will run out of
money if Congress does not agree to raise a $16.7
trillion cap on borrowing by Oct. 17 and allow it to
issue more debt. That has raised the specter that the
U.S. won’t be able to pay interest on its debt. Republicans say they won’t allow more borrowing unless
Democrats agree to restructure benefits programs or
cut the deficit; the White House has ruled out negotiations tied to the debt cap.
The Treasury says a default on bond payments
could freeze global credit, spike borrowing costs and
trigger a collapse worse than the Great Recession.
Even with such a dire scenario, investors continue
to buy Treasurys. On Wednesday, the yield on the 10year note, which falls when investors buy, was 2.67
percent, near a two-month low.
U.S. stocks have been drifting lower the past three
weeks. Even so, the Standard and Poor’s 500 index
is just 4 percent below an all-time high reached Sept.
18.
The debt ceiling fight echoes the Congressional
standoff over the same issue in the summer of 2011.
Experts say the U.S. attracts money now for the
same reason it did back then: Many other countries
are faring worse than the U.S. China, India and Brazil
are slowing dramatically. Japan is struggling to shake
off a two-decade slump. The 17 countries of the eurozone have just emerged from a recession.
“We’re the best of worst,” says David Sherman,
head of Cohanzick Management, a manager of bond
funds. He adds that the U.S. tends to “bounce back”
from crises.
In the 2011 crisis, for example, U.S. stock prices
dropped, but recovered most of their losses by the
end of the year.
Many investors think the costs of a default are too
high for politicians not to raise the borrowing cap before the deadline. But they’re still worried. Congress
hasn’t agreed on a spending bill for the new budget
year that began Oct. 1. A lack of funding led to a partial shutdown of the government, which entered its
ninth day on Wednesday.
“If we’re having trouble with this government shutdown, and no negotiation, what’s going to happen in
two weeks?” asks Talley Leger, a strategist Macro Vision Research, an investment consultancy.
Leger thinks it may take a further drop in stocks,
perhaps a big one, to force lawmakers to compromise.
The precedent for this is the 778-point drop in the
Dow Jones industrial average on Sept. 29, 2008, after
Congress rejected a $700 billion bailout bill, known
as Troubled Asset Relief Program. The TARP bill
was passed within days.
“This whole shutdown could easily drag out to
the debt deadline,” says Bill Strazzullo, chief market
strategist of Bell Curve Trading.
His thinks the Dow could fall to 14,200 — down
600 points from Wednesday’s close.
The prospects for U.S. bonds are more complicated.
When investors anticipate a crisis, they tend to buy
U.S. bonds. Treasurys are one of the mostly widely
held assets in the world, so it’s easy to buy and sell
them, even when people are panicking.
“People crave Treasurys because it is the most liquid market,” says Mark Vitner, a senior economist at
Wells Fargo.
After the rating agency Standard and Poor’s
stripped the U.S. of its top credit rating in August
2011, people bought more U.S. debt. The yield on
the 10-year Treasury fell below 2 percent for the first
time in a half century.
“For all its theatrical problems, the U.S. is still a
haven,” says Marshall Mays, director of Hong Kongbased Emerging Alpha Advisors. Mays says money
should continue to flow to the U.S. from Asia.
There is another reason to buy Treasurys. The
worse things get, the less likely it is that the Federal
Reserve will slow its economic stimulus. The Fed is
buying $85 billion in Treasury and other bonds each
month, driving bond prices up and their interest
rates down. The goal is to lower rates on consumer
loans, which are pegged to Treasurys.
The Fed extended that program last month, partly
because it though the economy still needed help.

Govt health and safety Questionable design blamed
efforts slowed or halted
for health website woes

Mary Clare Jalonick
The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The
government shutdown has
slowed or halted federal efforts to protect Americans’
health and safety, from
probes into the cause of
transportation and workplace accidents to tracking
foodborne illness. The latest example: an outbreak
of salmonella in chicken
that has sickened people in
18 states.
The federal Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention said Tuesday that
it was recalling some of
its furloughed staff to deal
with the outbreak, which
has sickened more than
270 people. Before then,
the CDC had only a handful of scientists working on
outbreak detection, severely hampering its ability to
track potentially deadly illnesses
With federal workers on
leave, the states have had
to pick up much of the
slack.
In the case of food safety,
state labs are investigating
foodborne illnesses and
communicating with each
other — without the help
of federal authorities, in
many cases — to figure out
whether outbreaks have
spread.
Dr. Christopher Braden,
head of the CDC division
that investigates foodborne
illness, said the agency will
be able to better monitor
the salmonella outbreak
with the recalled federal
staff. But the agency is
monitoring more than 30
outbreaks, and gaps still
exist as the federal bureaucracy limps through a shutdown beginning its second
week.
“There’s a backlog, and
the team is going to have
to work diligently and
long hours to try and overcome that,” Braden said.
“It’s possible we may find
something we’ve missed,
and when that’s the case
it’s harder to start investigations later than earlier.”
With staff furloughed

last week, the CDC stopped
monitoring for some foodborne pathogens, including shigella and campylobacter. The agency is now
watching for those again,
but Braden said some investigations are still on the
back burner, including an
ongoing outbreak of salmonella from handling live
poultry that has sickened
more than 300.
CDC isn’t the only agency protecting health and
safety that’s strained. The
shutdown has forced the
federal Mine Safety and
Health Administration to
halt its regular mine safety
inspections, which it normally conducts at each of
the nation’s underground
mines every three months.
The lack of inspections
is coming under scrutiny
after three mine workers died in separate accidents on three consecutive days during the past
week. The coal mining
industry has not had three
consecutive days of fatal
accidents in more than a
decade. MSHA has said
it’s premature to draw any
conclusions about the link
between the shutdown and
the accidents, but the nation’s largest mine workers
union has raised alarms.
“The
government’s
watchdog isn’t watching,”
United Mine Workers President Cecil Roberts said.
“Safety violations that
would normally be caught
and corrected as a result of
those inspections are being
missed. Even the smallest
violations, when allowed
to accumulate, can lead to
dangerous conditions very
quickly in a coal mine.”
Federal
occupational
safety and health inspectors also have stopped
most workplace checks,
and the National Transportation Safety Board is only
investigating accidents if
officials believe lives or
property are in danger.
The Food and Drug
Administration also has
stopped routine inspections of food facilities in the
United States and abroad,

and border controls could
be delayed. Food imports
are still being inspected at
borders, but any samples
that need to be analyzed
could be stalled because
there are fewer scientists
to analyze them.
The CDC also has had to
halt its surveillance of flu,
an infectious disease that
kills about 24,000 Americans in an average year.
This early in the flu season there is little illness,
meaning little to test yet.
But to fill in the gap, some
state health departments
have been receiving and
testing samples that otherwise would have gone
to CDC, said Kelly Wroblewski of the Association
of Public Health Laboratories.
CDC also is slashing its
staffing on quarantine stations at 20 airports and
entry points. When airline
pilots or customs workers
become aware of a sick
traveler, they flag quarantine officers who can detain, examine and isolate
those who might be an infectious threat to the U.S.
public.
During the shutdown,
quarantine station staff has
been cut by 80 percent,
meaning there’s essentially
only one person working
at each station, said Dr.
Martin Cetron, who leads
CDC’s division of global
migration and quarantine.
The lack of staff could
heighten the possibility
that some diseases could
slip into the country at a
time when measles is raging in Turkey and cholera
is breaking out in Mexico.
Still, many federal workers who protect safety and
health are still working,
from air traffic controllers to airport screeners
to the majority of federal
law enforcement. Active
duty military personnel
are on duty. USDA’s Food
Safety Inspection Service,
the agency responsible for
investigating the poultry
farm in California that is
linked to the salmonella
outbreak, is also mostly
staffed.

WASHINGTON — A decision by the
Obama administration to require that
consumers create online accounts before
they can browse health overhaul insurance
plans appears to have led to many of the
glitches that have frustrated customers,
independent experts say.
Most e-commerce websites — as well
as medicare.gov — are not designed to
require those merely browsing to set up
accounts. But it’s one of the first steps on
healthcare.gov.
Consumers trying to create their accounts multiplied the volume of online
transactions that overwhelmed the website last week, causing long waits and exasperation. Many people were stopped by
a balky security questions page.
The administration threw in additional
computing hardware to handle the volume,
and deployed software experts to patch
the mechanism for creating accounts, but
reports of delays persisted Tuesday.
For President Barack Obama, glitches
involving his signature legislation are an
unwelcome twist. A devoted smartphone
user, his political campaigns were models
of high-tech efficiency. Yet the problems
that have surfaced so far with healthcare.
gov don’t even involve the site’s more complicated functions.
Allowing consumers to browse anonymously was one of the recommendations
of Enroll UX 2014, a $3 million, 14-month
project to design an optimal user experience for the insurance marketplaces. The
well-known San Francisco design firm
IDEO led the project and undertook extensive consumer interviews to create an
easy-to-use site.
“The first thing people said to us is, ‘I
need to be able to understand what my options are,’” said Sam Karp, vice president
of programs at the California HealthCare
Foundation. The nonprofit helped organize and finance Enroll UX 2014, which
also involved the federal government and
11 states.
Karp said he was concerned when he
tried the federal website last week and
found that anonymous shopping wasn’t
part of it. He considers the omission a
“major design flaw.”
“That was a design recommendation
and they didn’t do it,” Karp said. While
several states that built their own online
marketplaces do allow for window shopping, the federal site serving 36 states
does not.
Technology-wise, requiring accounts
greatly magnified the amount of work the
federal website would have to do, increasing chances of bottlenecks and other problems.

Congress shall make no law
respecting an establishment of
religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof; or abridging
the freedom of speech, or of the
press; or the right of the people
peaceably to assemble, and to
petition the Government for a
redress of grievances.

Letters to the editor should be limited to 300 words.

Letters should be in good taste, addressing

accepted for publication.

“There is an awful lot of stuff going back
and forth in this system,” said Bill Curtis,
chief scientist at CAST, a software quality
analysis firm, and director of the Consortium for IT Software Quality, which develops standards. “There is a lot of inefficient
(software) code in there, and then when
you throw a huge load on it, it really exacerbates the problems.”
Added Karp, “If they had had anonymous shopping, many people would have
taken that route and it would have potentially relieved the traffic on the identity
verification part of the site.”
The health care law was designed to
provide insurance for people who don’t
have access to coverage on the job. Middle-class uninsured people can buy a government-subsidized private plan, while
the poor and near-poor will be steered to
Medicaid in states that agreed to expand
the safety-net program. The online insurance markets were envisioned as the 21st
century portal to an overhauled system.
Health and Human Services spokeswoman Joanne Peters said Tuesday the
government omitted a window-shopping
function because officials first wanted
consumers to know the amount of the
subsidy they might be eligible for. Those
income-based tax credits can dramatically
reduce premiums for people with modest
incomes, and personal financial information is needed to calculate the subsidies.
“Our process allows us to show consumers plans with prices that reflect what they
will pay with the tax credit they may be
eligible for,” Peters said. “Window shopping would not allow for this.”
The result seemed strange to Maureen
Bardusk of Galena, Ill., who’s hesitant
about giving her personal information before she can shop.
“I’m reluctant to give information so
it can be tracked when I’m simply looking for information,” said Bardusk, who’s
looking to replace expensive temporary
coverage she’s had since her husband was
laid off in June.
“I don’t want to be part of a marketing
scheme,” she added. “I assume they set it
up that way so they could see who’s coming in, how many times they come in and
what they buy after they get there…but
that isn’t really customer-oriented.”
Colorado, one of the states that designed its own market, made a deliberate
decision to allow window-shopping, the
opposite of what the feds decided.
Officials didn’t want to “spook” consumers, said Gary Schneider, IT program
manager for Connect for Health Colorado,
the state’s marketplace. “We were trying
to be less intrusive and create a more consumer-friendly experience.” Consumers
are allowed to set up their accounts after
they’ve narrowed their options.

As for the parking lot stage and the two
gazebos, the churches will again this year
be asked to decorate them in the holiday
theme.
Toney Dingess will again this year be
in charge of the Christmas parade which
will take place at 2 p.m. on Sunday Dec. 1,
which is the Sunday after Thanksgiving.
Tina
Rees, branch manager of Peoples

be present to greet the children following
the parade.
The question of freeing the parking meters for the holiday season and the advantage or not to merchants was discussed.
Ed Zatta of Swisher-Lohse Drugs
contended it was a disadvantage
to his business because of all-day parking
by downtown workers leaving no open
spaces for customers.
The candy, cookie and crafts contests

Following Short’s announcement that
he could not serve as president for another year, Ed Zatta of Swisher and Lohse
was elected to the lead position.

Pentagon: Foundation
to pay death benefits
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama
administration, scrambling to tamp down
a controversy over suspended death benefits for the families of fallen troops, announced Wednesday that a charity would
pick up the costs of the payments during
the government shutdown.
“The Fisher House Foundation will
provide the families of the fallen with the
benefits they so richly deserve,” Defense
Secretary Chuck Hagel said in a statement, adding that the Pentagon would
reimburse the foundation after the shutdown ended.
Hagel said Fisher House, which works
with veterans and their families, had approached the Pentagon about making the
payments. The Defense Department typically pays families about $100,000 within
three days of a service member’s death,
but officials say the shutdown was preventing those benefits from being paid.
A senior defense official said the government could not actively solicit funds
from private organizations but could accept an offer. The official was not authorized to publicly discuss the offer by name
and insisted on anonymity.
The failure to make the payments has
stirred outrage on Capitol Hill and at the
White House. Obama spokesman Jay Carney said Wednesday that the president
was “disturbed” when he found out the
death benefits had been suspended and
demanded an immediate solution.
“The commander in chief, when he
found out that this was not addressed, he
directed that a solution be found, and we
expect one today,” Carney said before the
Pentagon announced the agreement with
Fisher House.
The Republican-led House unanimously
passed legislation Wednesday to restore
the death benefits. But it’s unclear whether the Democratic-led Senate will take up
the measure or whether Obama would
sign it. Obama has threatened to veto
other legislation passed by the House in
recent days that would reopen individual
funding streams, arguing that a piecemeal
approach to ending the shutdown was un-

acceptable and that the entire government
must be reopened.
As of Wednesday afternoon, the Obama
administration had yet to issue a formal
veto threat for the death benefit bill.
Before the government shutdown last
week, Congress passed and Obama signed
a bill allowing the military to be paid
during the federal closure. However, the
death benefit payments were not covered
by that legislation.
Carney said the Pentagon told lawmakers before the shutdown that the death
benefit payments were not covered by the
bill and would be cut off during a shutdown. However, he repeatedly refused to
say when the president was first told that
death benefits would not be paid.
Amid the controversy, Hagel made a
rare trip Wednesday to Dover Air Force
Base for the arrival of remains of four soldiers killed in Afghanistan. The remains
of every U.S. military member killed overseas are flown to Dover for processing.
Family members attend the arrival, but
the secretary of defense usually does not.
Among the soldiers whose remains
were brought to Dover on Wednesday was
Pfc. Cody J. Patterson, 24, of Philomath,
Ore. Patterson’s family allowed members
of the media to witness the return of his
remains, but an Army liaison officer who
works with mortuary officials at Dover
said the family did not want to talk to reporters.
The other soldiers whose remains were
returned were 1st Lt. Jennifer M. Moreno, 25, of San Diego, Calif.; Sgt. Patrick
C. Hawkins, 25, of Carlisle, Pa.; and Sgt.
Joseph M. Peters, 24, of Springfield, Mo.
In a statement Tuesday, U.S. Army Special
Operations Command said Hawkins and
Patterson were members of the 3rd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment, and Peters
was a special agent assigned to the 286th
Military Police Detachment.
Hagel put his hand over his heart as
white-gloved soldiers carried the flagdraped case carrying Patterson’s remains
from a C-17 cargo plane to a white panel
truck for transfer to the Dover mortuary.

Four Turns

Tracks on Tap

One of the keys to
1 VERSATILITY
Kevin Harvick’s success on the Sprint

Cup level comes in the form of his
versatility on different types of tracks.
Of his 22 career Cup wins, six have
come on intermediate tracks (one to
two miles), five each on short and flat
tracks, three at the plate venues of
Daytona and Talladega and one victory on a road course (Watkins Glen).

GAME Matt Kenseth leads
2 NUMBERS
the championship standings thanks in
large part to his two wins. Kenseth’s
and Jimmie Johnson’s average finishes tell the tale: In four Chase races,
Kenseth has averaged a 5.0-place
finish, while Johnson (one win) sits
one full position better at 4.0. Kevin
Harvick, with one win, has averaged a
7.5-place showing, while Jeff Gordon
is at 7.0 and Kyle Busch 10.75.

Clint Bowyer has been a
3 FALLOUT
non-factor in the Chase’s four races

— but it’s not due to a dip in production. Having averaged a 12.3-place
finish in the 26-race regular season,
Bowyer’s No. 15 team ranked in the
top 5 in the standings from late-April
through mid-September. The bunch
has averaged a 12.5-place Chase finish, but finds itself buried at ninth in
the standings. Other teams (see item
No. 2) have upped the ante.

FOR SCRAPS Austin Dillon
4 FIGHTING
leads the Nationwide Series point

standings despite yet having to visit
Victory Lane in 2013. One of the reasons? Cup regulars. Cup Series drivers dipping into the lower division
have claimed 24 wins in the 29 races
thus far. Consecutive 17th-place
showings by Sam Hornish Jr. have
surrendered the points lead to Dillon,
who has two straight sixth-place runs.

races. The problem? The “other” two
races came in the Chase, where
they ran 13th in New Hampshire
and 21st at Dover.
KASEY KAHNE Kahne and his
Hendrick Motorsports team won
two races in the regular season, but
have slumped in the Chase. The No. 5
team has averaged a 19.25-place finish

Race: Bank of America 500

When: Saturday, Oct. 12
TV: ABC (6:30 p.m. EST)
Layout: 1.5-mile quad-oval
Banking/Turns: 24 degrees

2012 Winner: Clint Bowyer
Crew Chief’s Take: “I’m not a big fan of
Charlotte because we’ve never done well
there. It’s one of those tracks where we
practice a bunch during the day and then
run at night, so it makes it a mystery. If
you’re a team that is having a good year
and you’re confident in your program,
then it is a place you can run well. The
track is very basic, but you don’t get to
practice under the race conditions, so it
makes it a challenge. Aside from the track
itself, it’s nice for the teams to sleep in
their own beds. This may sound weird, but
for us it’s like taking a working vacation.”

Kevin Harvick wins
a wild Hollywood
Casino 400 from pole
By MATT TALIAFERRO
Athlon Sports Racing Editor

By all outward appearances,
Kansas Speedway is a typical 1.5mile racetrack. Although it, along
with its intermediate tri-oval brethern Chicagoland, Las Vegas and
Michigan have their particular
characteristics, Kansas certainly
does not distinguish itself from the
rest in a way the half-mile bullring
at Bristol or the flat, one-miler in
New Hampshire do.
So what is it about the progressively-banked venue in Kansas
City, Kan., that make it such a
tricky stop when the NASCAR
Sprint Cup Series makes it’s October Chase pilgrimage?
On Sunday, that question had a
clearly defined set of answers: A
new, harder-compound Goodyear
tire combined with a surface that
was repaved just over one year
ago run on an afternoon that provided much cooler temperatures
than any test session had previously presented.
The result was a treacherously
slick track that witnessed drivers on
the edge of control, spurring a trackrecord 15 caution periods, including
nine for accidents.
Oddly, for a race such as this, the
best car actually won.
Kevin Harvick and his No. 29
Richard Childress Racing team sat
on the pole for the first time in
over seven years and led a racehigh 138 of 267 laps and (most importantly) stayed well ahead of the
madness to score his third win of
the 2013 season in the Hollywood
Casino 400.
Harvick gained 14 points on
championship leader Matt Kenseth
by virtue of the win, moving to
within striking distance of a title at
25 markers back in the standings.
“It was an interesting weekend
to say the least,” Harvick said.
“Everybody was battling the tires
and the track, and I think it was
like driving on a razor blade. I told
(the team) yesterday, we’ve just
got to try to get some kind of consistency because that was the thing
that for me stuck out the most was
our lap times; one would be good,
one would be bad, one would be
good, and that’s always our strong
point where you have that nice
curve of lap times.
“To sit on the pole and win the
race is obviously a great weekend,
and controlling our own destiny by
doing that, putting ourselves closer
to where we need to be with the
championship race — we’ll just

keep having fun and keep doing
what we’re doing.”
Chase frontrunners Kenseth,
Jimmie Johnson and Kyle Busch
— as well as Harvick — experienced a malady of tests throughout
the afternoon. Each driver found
himself well back in the field at
one point or another due to pit
strategies that often coincided with
one of the many caution periods.
While Harvick, Johnson (sixth)
and Kenseth (11th) all battled back
to post respectable finishes, Busch
was the event’s big loser.
Busch, who came into the event
12 points back in the standings,
went to a back-up car because of a
practice crash on Saturday, and
therefore started the race in the rear
of the field. He narrowly missed
damaging his Toyota in a first-lap
accident involving Danica Patrick
and David Reutimann but spun on
two different ocassions, the second
ending his day on lap 201.
He finished 34th and dropped to
fifth in the standings, 35 points
behind Kenseth. It was Busch’s
third straight finish of 31st or
worse in Kansas.
“The racetrack is the worst racetrack I’ve ever driven on, the tire
is the worst tire I’ve ever driven on
and track position is everything,”

Busch said. “It certainly hinders
(the title hopes), but we’ll just try
to get back in it,” Kyle Busch said.
“Try to work hard and see what
falls our way. If it doesn’t happen,
it doesn’t happen.”
Kenseth led 21 laps prior to the
halfway mark of the race, but a pit
road speeding penalty during a
round of stops on lap 139 dropped
him to 40th. He spent the remainder of the day catching up.
“I haven’t had to drive a car like
that in a long time,” Kenseth said.
“Everybody’s on the same tire so
you can’t blame that. It was just incredibly treacherous. I was just so
loose I was ready to crash pretty
much all of the race.
“I feel lucky for not being
wrecked and I feel really fortunate
to still be leading the points. Not
the day we wanted. But could have
been worse.”
Johnson dodged a bullet late,
when his engine began to fail
with two laps to go. Although he
lost a position limping to the
checkered flag and “felt bummed
that I left points on the table,”
was grateful to have survived an
eventful afternoon.
“At the same time, I’m happy I
made it to the finish line under
power and got a nice finish,” he said.

Busch, Keselowski renew old rivalry
By MATT TALIAFERRO
Athlon Sports Racing Editor

Kyle Busch and Brad Keselowski
engaged in a war of words after the
two tangled in Saturday’s Nationwide Series race in Kansas.
In the incident, Keselowski spun
off the front bumper of Busch and
hit the wall, ending his day. Keselowski ran toward Busch’s pit,
pointing a finger in the team’s direction, but did not engage.
Later Keselowski said, “He didn’t
want me to race him hard so he
dumped me down the straightaway.
I think that’s pretty self-explanatory
and I’m not going to stand it. He’s
got a lot more to lose than I do. Like
I said, I guess that’s the only good
thing about not being in the Chase.”
Busch claimed that the accident

was not intentional.
“I just got real tight off of (turn)
four,” Busch said. “I’d been battling
tight underneath him and behind
him and everything else. I thought I
had a run and I tried to stay in the
gas so I could get a run on him and
get to his quarter and side draft him
down the front straightaway and I
got too tight — got inside his wake
and got too close to him and spun
him out.”
It did not end there, though, as the
two who’ve had a history of run-ins
continued to spout off in interviews
with USA Today:
“I got wrecked by a dirty driver,"
Keselowski said. “There is no other
way of putting it.”
“Brad Keselowski knows what
dirty drivers are because he’s done
it plenty of times,” Busch re-

Charlotte Motor Speedway
History has proven that it’s extremely
rare and difficult for a driver not in the
Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup to win
a race during the sport’s 10-race playoff.
But that’s exactly what Jamie McMurray
did in the Bank of America 500 at Charlotte Motor Speedway in October 2010.
McMurray, despite winning two of the
sport’s “crown-jewel” events — the Daytona 500 and the Brickyard 400 — earlier
that season, missed the Chase, but he
played the role of Chase spoiler to a tee
at Charlotte, where none of the 12 championship-contending drivers could hang
with his No. 1 Earnhardt Ganassi Racing
Chevrolet when it counted.
McMurray led 65 laps and prevailed by
1.866 seconds over Chase driver Kyle
Busch and third-place finisher Jimmie
Johnson, who went on to win the title.
In winning at Charlotte, McMurray returned to Victory Lane at the site of his
first Sprint Cup Series triumph eight years
earlier with team owner Chip Ganassi.

Athlon Fantasy Stall
Looking at Checkers: Kasey Kahne has
four consecutive showings of eighth or
better in Charlotte. He was far and away
the best car in May, but was burned by a
late caution and finished second.
Pretty Solid Pick: Kevin Harvick swooped
in for the win here in May and carries momentum after a victory in Kansas.
Good Sleeper Pick: Joy Logano’s 9.6place average finish in nine starts at CMS
is a series-best.
Runs on Seven Cylinders: Charlotte isn’t
Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s favorite stop, as he’s
averaged a 19.6-place finish while registering only 11 top 10s (zero wins) in 27
points-paying starts.
Insider Tip: Clean air and track position
at night’s end will determine your winner at the 1.5-mile track in Concord.

crew after an incident in Kansas.

sponded. “I have yet to wreck a person on purpose.”
Keselowski then vowed that retribution would come, to which Busch
said, “That goes to show you the
kind of person Brad Keselowski is
and the class he doesn’t have.”

Riverside wins 2013 River Cup
Staff Report

Alex Hawley | Civitas Media

Eastern junior Christian Speelman (11) pulls down an interception during the Eagles 28-0 victory over Waterford in
Tuppers Plains.

MASON, W.Va. — A two-foot putt
made all the difference.
The 2013 River Cup was decided
on the last hole of play in the singles’
match finale between Jeremy Tucker
and Rusty Saunders when Tucker
sank a two-footer to give Riverside
a narrow one-point overall victory
at Riverside Golf Course in Mason
County.
Tucker’s putt allowed him to defeat
Saunders 1-up and gave Riverside a
final team tally of 18.5 points, which
was one full point ahead of Cliffside
final two-day total of 17.5 points.

The annual event started play on Saturday, Oct. 5, and ended on Sunday,
Oct. 6.
The competition opened on Saturday with the best-ball matches, with
two-man squads from each team playing eight head-to-head matches. Riverside came away from that division
with a small 4.5-point to 3.5-point
advantage.
The next set of matches were a
scramble format, with six two-man
teams from each squad going headto-head. Riverside picked up three
extra points following that division
after outscoring the guests by a

4.5-point to 1.5-point margin, giving
Riverside a 9-5 overall lead.
The second day opened with alternate shot matches, consisting of
six two-man squads from each team.
Riverside and Cliffside battled to
a 3-3 draw in that event, allowing
Riverside to extend its edge to 12-8
headed into the finale.
Each team had 16 individuals
particpating in the singles matches,
which Cliffside won by a 9.5-point to
6.5-point overall margin. But despite
the late charge, Riverside was able
to hold on and win the 24th annual
event.

EHS offensive leaders
last week: QB Dylan Bresciani 4-of-8, 87 yards; RB
Zach Browning 7 carries,
26 yards, TD; WR Daschle
Facemyer 2 catches, 35
yards.
THS offensive leaders last week: QB Konner
Standley 9-of-17, 246 yards
2 TDs; RB Bryce Smathers

EHS defense last week:
146 rushing yards, 98 passing yards.
THS defense last week: 7
rushing yards, 10 passing
yards.
Notes: At this point the
question isn’t will anyone upset the Tomcats, so
much as will anyone score
againt that defense. The
Trimble defense has given
up just one score this season (a one yard touchdown
run to Wahama’s Hunter
Bradley) in six games.
Eastern will be looking to
get back in the win column
with a monumental task of
defeating Trimble for the
first time since 2000. Trimble defeated Eastern by
an average margin of 30.8
since 2001. The last time
the Eagles defeated Trimble was Week 6 of the 2000
season when EHS won

34-6. The Tomcats have
earned shutout victories
in each their last three contests against Eastern. The
Eagles are just 3-23 against
Athens County teams over
the last 10 seasons. The
last time Eastern traveled
to Glouster was October
7, 2011, which resulted in
a 49-0 THS victory. The
Eastern offense this season is led y quarterback
Dylan Bresciani and runningback Zack Scowden.
Bresciani is 14-of-49 passing for 316 yards and two
touchdowns, with 146
yards and two touchdowns
rushing. Scowden has 313
yards on 70 carries and a
touchdown. EHS will return home for two straight
games following its trip to
Glouster, while Trimble
will hit the road for one
game. Trimble holds an
18-3 all-time record against
Eastern dating back to the
teams’ first meeting in
1993. The Tomcats haven’t
lost a TVC Hocking game
to anyone except Wahama
since 2007 when Waterford
took a 27-8 decision.

Lady Eagles spoil gym opening at Southern

RACINE, Ohio — Some things
just never change.
The Eastern volleyball team
spoiled Southern’s first-ever varsity sporting event at the new
gymnasium Tuesday night following a spirited 25-16, 25-17, 25-15
decision in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division matchup
in Meigs County.
The Lady Tornadoes (10-10,
9-6 TVC Hocking) finally ushered in a new era of SHS sports
by hosting their first match in the
new high school facility, which
came in a Volley for the Cure contest against their in-county rivals.
The Lady Eagles (19-2, 14-1)
fell behind 1-0 in all three games
and trailed by at least four points
in each contest, but the guests rallied back from each of those early
deficit to secure the straight-game
triumph.
Eastern, with the win, claimed
a season sweep of the Lady Tornadoes after posting a 25-11, 25-19,
25-19 in the first match at EHS
back on September 17. It was also
the Lady Eagles’ eighth straight
season sweep of Southern.
Eastern has now won 18 consecutive matches over the Lady
Tornadoes, who last defeated
EHS by an 18-25, 25-20, 16-25,
25-22, 15-11 margin back on
September 29, 2005 at Charles
W. Hayman Gymnasium. Two of
those 18 losses also came in postseason contests back in 2006 and
2012.
Southern stormed out to early
leads of 4-0 and 6-1 in Game 1, but
the Lady Eagles countered with a
22-8 surge to claim their biggest
lead in the opener at 23-14. Both
teams traded two points apiece
the rest of the way, allowing EHS
to secure an early 1-0 match lead.
There were 10 ties and 11 lead
changes overall in Game 2, with
Eastern finally gaining control

Haley Hill (3) during the second game of Tuesday night’s volleyball contest
against Eastern in Racine, Ohio.

after breaking away from a 14-all
tie with an 11-3 surge to claim an
eight-point win and a 2-0 match
advantage. Southern held seven
of the 11 leads produced in Game
2.
The Lady Tornadoes again

took control early on in the finale,
as the hosts captured an early
lead of 8-3. Eastern rallied to tie
things up at nine and again at 11,
then went on 14-4 charge down

Lady Spartans rally past Meigs

ALBANY, Ohio — A fast start
doesn’t always result in success.
The Meigs volleyball team won the
opening game convincingly Tuesday
night but it was Alexander, which
had the last laugh, defeating the
Lady Marauders in four games to
take the Tri-Valley Conference Ohio
Division win.
The Lady Marauders (7-11, 3-6
TVC Ohio) surged to a 25-13 victory

in game one, but the second game
went the way of the Lady Spartans
25-22. AHS won the third game by a
narrow 26-24 margin and rolled to a
25-12 victory on game four, securing
match victory.
Olivia Cremeans led the Maroon
and Gold with 13 kills, followed by
Brook Andrus with 12. Hannah Cremeans marked six kills, Aly Dettwiller had four, Devyn Oliver marked
three, while Ariel Ellis finished with
one kill in the setback. Oliver fin-

ished with a team-best 17 assists, followed by Ellis with 16.
With four service aces, Olivia Cremeans led the Lady Marauders, while
Andurs had two and Oliver marked
one. Hannah Cremeans paced the
defense with two blocks, followed by
Ellis and Olivia Cremeans with one
apiece. Dettwiller and Oliver each
had a dig in the contest.
Alexander also got the better of
Meigs on September 17th in Rocksprings.

against the Trojans, with
a 485-441 scoring advantage. The Trojans are just
1-3 at home this season,
while GAHS comes in with
a 1-1 road record. The Blue

Devils escaped with a 10-7
victory in their last trip
to Gallia Street, in 2011.
This is the first Southeastern Ohio Athletic
League game for the Blue
and White this season and
GAHS will hope for a similar campaign to last season. Gallia Academy went

in region 25, a full point
ahead of ninth place. The
Rebels will travel to Belpre this week, and meet
a Golden Eagle team that

Federal Hocking combined
for 91 points last week,
the most in a Rebel bout
since 2002. Jacob White
found paydirt five times
for the Red and Gold last
week, while fellow runningback Ethan Spurlock
scored twice. Belpre has
given up just 46 points in
the second half this season,
27 to Fort Frye and 19 to
Wahama. Last season’s 4-4
league record was Belpre’s
best since 2007 when the
Golden Eagles finished
4-1 in the TVC Ohio. The
last time SGHS visited
Belpre the Rebels won 627. In its three seasons in
TVC Hocking South Gallia holds a 2-1 record and
a 116-49 scoring advantage
over the Golden Eagles.
This is the shortest league
road game for South Gallia.

a 17-12 all-time record against Meigs,
but the Marauders have won four of the
last five matchup. Vinton County’s most
recent trip to Meigs County resulted in a

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday,
Oct. 10, 2013
2012:
This year you demonstrate your
strength and ability to come through
for others. Friendships from all walks
of life add to the quality of your life. Be
ready to respond to different people
and unique situations. Someone from
a distance will make an enormous
impact on you, as this person frequently presents an outside perspective. If you are single, a new bond
could become more. You will choose
someone who is intriguing and different from you. If you are attached, the
two of you gain from taking special
time away together. CAPRICORN triggers you.
The Stars Show the Kind of Day
You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive;
3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
Your vision upon waking
today could change rather quickly.
Where you might have thought you
were free to explore some new ideas,
you could discover that you are in a
position to take the lead. Your intuition will guide you in new direction.
Tonight: Revise your plans.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
Try to see what it’s like to
walk in someone else’s shoes. Detach
by taking a walk around the block or
by doing some yoga. This will work
wonders, as you’ll be able to see a
situation in a new light. Bring your
new understanding into a discussion.
Tonight: Let your mind lead.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
You know the power
of one-on-one relating. If you have
a question about what choices you
should make, follow through and
ask. One key person might be more
influential and responsive than others.
Reach out to this person more often.
Tonight: Opt for some closeness.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
You might not be as in
control as you might like today. Others
continue to seek you out, and you will
feel the need to respond. Someone
could inspire you to follow an offbeat
course, even if it’s just in making
weekend plans. Why Not? Tonight:
Only with favorite people.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
Pace yourself, and know what
you must do. You have the energy
to carry you through a major project.
Use it well. A long-overdue conversation with a partner will feel right-on.
You even might be inspired to head
in a new direction. Tonight: Choose a
relaxing activity.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
You won’t be able to contain yourself, even in the most serious
of situations. Your mind seems to be
everywhere except where it needs to
be. A new friend will understand you.
Clear up what is going on, so that
you can be more present. Tonight: Be
naughty and nice.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
A personal or domestic issue
dominates your thoughts. Realize that
you might need to make a decision
about an investment involving real
estate. Check in with some wise and
supportive friends for feedback. Don’t
act until you are 100 percent sure of
yourself. Tonight: Head home.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
You will ask the right questions, but someone might be reactive
and cause some confusion. It is possible that this person is mixed up, and
the fog that emanates from him or her
is reflective of his or her mindset. Be
willing to start a discussion on a basic
level. Tonight: Hang out.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You have a certain naivete
when it comes to money, as you
believe that the cost of a venture is far
less than it really is. Explore the price
with several people before you make
any commitments. You might need to
revise your finances. Tonight: Play it
conservatively.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
You will get past momentary
episodes of confusion. Your sense of
direction will help you break past a
barrier. Do not hesitate to find experts
or those in the know. Someone might
say something that could cause you to
regroup and head in a new direction.
Tonight: As you like it.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
One-on-one relating
remains pivotal in breaking past someone’s anger issues. You still might
decide to do nothing and let time work
its wonders. You would be wise not
to count on that premise succeeding.
If you care, you must venture out.
Tonight: Not to be found.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
Meetings and networking
need to take a high priority right now.
Be aware of your limitations when
dealing with a friend in a business situation. “Separate business and pleasure” would be a good motto for you
to live by today. Tonight: Go where the
crowds are.

PRO FOOTBALL REVIEW
Last year’s bad dream now a memory
CHICAGO (AP) — The exorcism is
nearly complete.
Spooked as the New Orleans Saints
were — top to bottom — at this time a
year ago, “Bountygate” seems like little
more than a bad dream now.
After a businesslike 26-18 victory
over Chicago on Sunday, New Orleans is
at 5-0, instead of last season’s 1-4 start,
and still among the fast-thinning ranks
of unbeatens in the NFL. Drew Brees is
off to another scintillating start, Sean
Payton is back in charge, and if reuniting one of the best quarterback-coach
duos in the league wasn’t intimidating
enough, well, the Saints are suddenly
boasting a top-five defense to boot.
Most of the credit for that last development belongs to Rob Ryan, the son of
bona fide defensive genius Buddy Ryan,
and the less-well-groomed twin brother
of Jets coach Rex. Rob Ryan was calling
the shots for Dallas’ defense last season,
and the emergence of Cameron Jordan and
Junior Gallette along the Saints’ defensive
front, along with rookie Kenny Vaccaro in
the secondary, made his move to New Orleans look downright prescient.
But there’s no doubt up and down the
roster who has made the biggest difference in the Saints’ fortunes this time
around — even if Payton’s players find
it hard to say exactly why.
“Coach understands the temperature of
this team, when to turn it up and when to dial
it down,” veteran corner Jabari Greer said.
“Last year,” Brees said, “everything that
could have gone wrong went wrong. … It
hasn’t been perfect, but …”
“I can’t quite put my finger on it, ei-

With the return of Sean Payton, the New Orleans coach suspended last year in the wake of
“Bountygate,” the Saints have returned to their place as an elite team.

ther. But if I had to guess, I’d say Coach
Payton’s attention to detail is,” and here
tackle Charles Brown paused to find the
right word, “contagious.”
The Saints got lucky when Chicago’s
Matt Forte fumbled a pitch on the first
play of the game, but made their own
break on the first play of the next series,
when corner Malcolm Jenkins scooted
around the right end untouched on the
blitz and jarred the ball loose from quarterback Jay Cutler. New Orleans settled
for field goals after both turnovers; even
so, the Bears wound up chasing the

Saints the rest of the way.
“I thought our guys played real smart
and did what we needed to do to get a
good road victory,” Payton said. “It wasn’t
always perfect or clean in the second half,
but it was good enough.”
Payton conceded that watching Saints
games from his couch at home last year
was tough. He was parked there because
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell suspended Payton for a year in response
to a murky bounty system being run by
former New Orleans defensive coordinator Gregg Williams.

Reggie Bush has found his groove
ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP)
— Reggie Bush has found a
groove, on and off the field.
He is fitting in perfectly
with his third NFL team, the
Detroit Lions, who use him as
a dual-threat running back to
complement All-Pro receiver
Calvin Johnson.
Bush said he’s living a dream
as a football player, facing defenses that aren’t designed to
stop just him.
He also appears to be happy
away from the game, enjoying
life as a first-time father while
living in the Motor City with
his fiance, Lilit Avagyan, and
their daughter, Briseis, who
will be 5 months old Sunday.
“I love being a dad,” he said,
almost breathlessly. “I love going
home and seeing my little girl and
the innocent smile on her face.”
And he likes being in public
without having paparazzi in
his face as he did when he was
dating Kim Kardashian.
“That feels good, too,” Bush
said with a grin.
The Lions (3-1) have been
good this year, sharing first
place in the NFC North with
Chicago entering their game
Sunday at Green Bay (1-2), in
large part because Bush is in
their backfield.
The franchise, desperate for
success after flopping to a 4-12
finish last season, made signing Bush its top priority in the

offseason because it realized
Jahvid Best’s career — with
the Lions, at least — was over
because of concussions.
The Lions needed Bush, and
he needed them. He signed a
$16 million, four-year contract
in March as a free agent.
So far, the team’s investment
in the 28-year-old, eight-year
veteran has paid off.
Bush ranks second in the NFL
with an average of 144.3 yards
from scrimmage, trailing only
Philadelphia’s LeSean McCoy.
He is running between the tackles with power and to the outside
with speed, gaining 5-plus yards a
carry to put him on pace to rush
for 1,000 yards for the second
time in his career — even though
he missed the win over Washington with a knee injury.
With an ability to carry the
football or catch it in the flat or
as a dump-off option, Bush has
also opened up passing lanes
for Johnson, who has caught
four touchdown passes a year
after scoring just five times.
Johnson, in turn, pulls players out of the box to give Bush
room to run through perhaps
the biggest holes of his career.
“A lot of it has to do with
scheme and the fact that 81 is
out there,” Bush said, referring
to Johnson’s jersey number. “It
makes life a lot easier.”
Bush seemed to have it made

Reggie Bush, seen here in action against the Chicago Bears, seemingly has found a home, and his groove, with the Detroit Lions.

drafted No. 2 overall in 2006 by
New Orleans after helping USC
win two national titles and winning a Heisman Trophy.
He had personal and team
success as a rookie, scoring
nine times on the ground,
through the air and on a punt
return to help the Saints advance to the NFC championship game for the first time in
franchise history.
After that, though, Bush’s career was stunted by injuries. His
reputation took a hit because the
Trojans were stripped of their
2004 title, and the Heisman
Trust wanted his trophy back
because the NCAA determined
he got extra benefits in college.

And everywhere Bush went for
years, cameras followed him
because he was in an on- and
off-again relationship with Kardashian, a reality TV star.
New Orleans traded him in
2011 to Miami, who made him
a featured running back. He
gained more than 2,000 yards
rushing, nearly 600 yards receiving and scored 15 times over
two seasons with the Dolphins.
Detroit did its due diligence
when evaluating whether Bush
would be worth going after, and
got nothing but good reports.
When he joined the Lions for
offseason training, teammates
and coaches couldn’t brag
enough about him as a person.
