Tri Star eyes drug testing policy
By JANICE BARNIAK
Staff Writer
MINSTER — The local Tri Star
program may soon seek approval to
conduct random drug testing for students, Minster Superintendent Brenda
Boeke told the Minster Board of Education this week.
During a meeting of Tri Star superintendents, the administrators were
updated on the reasons the technical track program wants to drug test.
Boeke said the decision is partly based
on safety concerns.
Students are learning construction,
welding and other trades where a compromised attention to safety could en-
danger the students. Boeke also said
random drug testing mimics the workforce these workers plan to enter.
“It would be random,” Boeke said.
“Anyone, anytime, any program.”
She noted to pinpoint a certain set
of students could be discriminatory.
The proposed testing is non-punitive,
which would mean students testing
positive for substances would not be
turned over to the police or face academic repercussions.
Currently the program has legal
counsel and is trying to write the policy.

NEW BREMEN — When an inside recess
because of snow was announced at New Bremen Elementary on Thursday, a clap, cheer
and whistles rose from the crowd eating their
lunches in the cafeteria.
While their red-clad mascots may have
travelled south for the winter, the Cards cosy
in their classrooms were glad to welcome the
flakes.
Abbie Buitton said she likes the snow.
“You get to jump in it and make snow angels,” she said.
Mara Lozier agreed.
“I like to go sledding and have snowball
fights with my dad,” she said.
Many New Bremen fathers have snowball
fight traditions, including in Hayden Sellers’,
Adam Fledderjohann’s and Jonny Heitkamp’s
families who also like throwing snowballs.
“I like to throw snowballs,” Jonny said.
Greyson Pleiman elaborated on the family
festivities.
“When me and my dad have snowball fights
we hide behind our camper,” he said.
Jackson Lennardt said he builds forts in the

Talking to Giovanna

she explains that a scientific
journey is sometimes for a
researcher as much an inquiry into the self as it is a
curiosity about the outside
world. She gave the example
that when she was pregnant,
she thought about studying
pregnancy and martial arts,
now she has children and
she’s interested in finding

Student debt
improving
COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio’s nationwide rank
for average student debt is improving, but education officials, students and researchers disagree on
whether progress actually is being made on college
affordability in the state.
A report from the Institute for College Access and
Success shows students who received bachelor’s degrees in 2013 at Ohio colleges and universities graduated with an average of $29,090 in student debt,
The Columbus Dispatch reported.
The report ranked Ohio 11th in the nation for the
most college debt, but the state has improved in the
rankings in recent years. Just two years ago, it had
the seventh-highest student debt.
Although 68 percent of students in Ohio graduated with college debt last year, Ohio Board of Regents
Chancellor John Carey said Ohio schools are doing
more to help students save money. Institutions are
advising students to utilize dual-enrollment programs in high school, intervening early in cases of
struggling students and providing better information about college costs, he said.
Carey said the improvement in rank is a measure
of success, but the report showed Ohio’s rank isn’t
necessarily improving due to lower student debt, but
rather that debt rose faster in other states. Last year’s
average was a nominal $53 more than in 2012.
Nationally, the average for student debt rose by 2
percent since 2012, showing the situation isn’t improving, said Debbie Cochrane, co-author of the report.
Celia Wright, president of Ohio State University’s
student government, told the newspaper that state
cuts to higher education funding has hurt students.
The high cost of college keeps students from pursuing advanced degrees and forces some to take parttime jobs rather than join student groups, Wright
said.
“It’s unfortunate that Ohio has not been able to
make higher education a priority,” she said.
McConnell
to lead GOP
WASHINGTON (AP) — Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky won election by fellow Republicans
on Thursday to become Senate majority leader when
the new Congress convenes in January, fulfilling a
long-held ambition.
A Senate Republican official said McConnell, 72
was chosen by acclamation at a closed-door meeting
of the rank and file.
As majority leader, McConnell will set the Senate’s agenda. Along with House Speaker John Boehner, he will decide what legislation is sent to the
White House in the final two years of President Barack Obama’s term.
McConnell was elected to a sixth Senate term last
week in elections in which Republicans gained a majority for the first time in eight years.
He will formally assume his duties as majority
leader in January. Democrats have assailed him in
recent campaigns as a guardian of gridlock for his
opposition to nearly all of President Barack Obama’s
initiatives.
At the same time, his office in the Capitol is decorated with two paintings and a bust of Henry Clay, a
19th century Kentuckian known as the Great Compromiser who favored government development of
roads and bridges in a young America.
Senate Republicans had only one contested leadership race, and selected Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi to chair the party’s campaign committee for
the 2016 elections. He defeated Sen. Dean Heller of
Nevada.
Neither Republican leader faced public opposition on the eve of Thursday’s party elections in
closed door meetings. If the sessions were celebratory occasions for Republicans, they were less than
that for Democrats, who took a pounding in the Nov.
4 midterm elections.
After eight years in the minority, Senate Republicans picked up at least eight seats from Democrats
and are still hoping for a ninth in a Louisiana runoff
set for Dec. 6.
The party also padded its majority in the House,
where a handful of races remain unresolved. Republicans are on track to equal or eclipse the 246 they
won in 1946, a figure that stands as a post-World
War II high.
Despite sizable election losses, Democrats appeared ready to hand their own leaders another two
years at the helm, postponing a generational change
that appears not far in the future.
Sen. Harry Reid of Nevada, a few weeks shy of
his 75th birthday, was in line to become the minority leader in the new Congress. He was first elected
Democratic leader in 2004.
Officials said Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, a favorite of liberals, would be given a seat
at the leadership table. At the same time. Sen. John
Tester, a second-term moderate from Montana, was
in line to become head of the party’s campaign organization for 2016.
Rep. Nancy Pelosi of California, 74, is expected to
be elected to a new term as House Democratic leader when the rank-and-file meets next week. She first
won her post a dozen years ago. She was speaker for
four years when Democrats held the majority, and
has served as minority leader for eight.

Justice: Time to rethink elections
COLUMBUS (AP) — The number of uncontested
judicial races in Ohio is reason to once again consider
appointing rather than electing judges, the chief justice of the state Supreme Court argues.
Supreme Court statistics show that 69 percent of
judicial races were uncontested this election, just
down from 70 percent during an equivalent election
year in 2010.
This year’s uncontested races included campaigns
for 13 appeals court seats, the state’s second-highest
judicial position.
Chief Justice Maureen O’Connor said people are
casting what she calls “complimentary votes” in such
races.
“If you inform the voters, do you know that almost
70 percent of the judges that have been on the ballot in 2014 are unopposed, do you still think you’re
electing your judges?” O’Connor said in an interview
about the most recent elections.
The goal is to take politics out of judicial campaigns, O’Connor said. She favors a system where
the governor would appoint judges based on recommendations from a screening committee, with voters
casting ballots in retention elections two years later
to decide whether the judges should keep their jobs.
That plan would “still allow the voters to weigh in,
but you would be judging the candidate on their record, what have they done for the two years during
the interim,” O’Connor said. “That preserves the best
of both worlds.”
Currently, Ohio judges run in partisan primaries
and nonpartisan general elections. O’Connor has
also pushed unsuccessfully to eliminate partisan pri-
maries.
Lawmakers would have to approve such changes
and it’s unclear if there’s any appetite for it. Ohio voters have rejected appointment schemes as far back as
1938. In 1987, Ohio voters again declined to change
the state constitution to do away with elected judges.
O’Connor’s predecessor, the late Thomas Moyer,
pushed as recently as 2009 to change the constitution to require the appointment of Supreme Court
justices, but the effort went nowhere.
The American Bar Association supports appointment of judges. Several studies have found a number
of uncontested judicial races around the country, according to the National Center for State Courts.
Practices vary from state to state. In Indiana, the
governor appoints supreme court justices and appeals
court judges based on recommendations, with those
judges then facing a retention election. Lower court
judges run in partisan elections.
Pennsylvania voters elect judges in partisan races,
but the judges thereafter face retention elections to
stay in office.
In Kansas, appeals court and supreme court judges are appointed, while half the state’s district court
judges run in partisan elections and half are appointed.
O’Connor is pushing other reforms, such as moving judicial races to odd-numbered years to avoid
information overload for the public as well as judges’
races getting “lost in the shuffle” of more high-profile
elected offices.
She also wants the position of judicial races raised
on the ballot to increase voter participation.
Legislators look to curb war criminals’ benefits
WASHINGTON (AP) — A bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced legislation Thursday to strip
suspected Nazi war criminals of
their Social Security benefits, insisting American taxpayers should
not be underwriting the retirement of anyone who participated
in the Third Reich’s atrocities.
The Nazi Social Security Benefits Termination Act comes in response to an Associated Press investigation published in October
that revealed millions of dollars in
benefits have been paid to dozens
of former Nazis who were forced
out of the United States. At least
four are alive, living in Europe on
U.S. Social Security.
The legislation would end benefits for Nazi suspects who have lost
their American citizenship, a step
called denaturalization. U.S. law
currently requires a higher thresh-
old — a final order of deportation
— before benefits can be terminated. A companion bill to close
this so-called loophole was introduced in the Senate.
Mike Long, a spokesman for
House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, said “we’re eager to get this
done” during the lame-duck session that will last until a new Congress begins in late January.
AP’s investigation found that
the Justice Department used the
loophole to persuade Nazi suspects to leave the U.S. in exchange
for Social Security benefits. If they
agreed to go voluntarily, or simply
fled the country before being deported, they could keep their Social Security benefits. The Justice
Department denied using Social
Security payments as a tool for expelling former Nazis.
“Our bill will eliminate the
loophole that has allowed Nazi
war criminals to collect Social Security benefits,” Rep. Carolyn Maloney, the bill’s main sponsor, said
in a statement. “We should work in
a bipartisan and expeditious manner to terminate these benefits
once and for all.”
Republican Reps. Jason Chaffetz of Utah and Leonard Lance of
New Jersey joined with Maloney
to introduce the legislation. There
are 11 other co-sponsors.
The Senate bill is sponsored by
Sens. Bob Casey, D-Pa., Chuck
Schumer, D-N.Y., and Bill Nelson,
D-Fla. The White House and the
Social Security Administration
have signaled support for denying
benefits to former Nazis. The Justice Department said it is open to
considering proposals that would
terminate the Social Security payments.

Association seeks
playground funds
From Staff Reports
ST. MARYS — The Lake Improvement Association has announced the purchase of a new playground
set to be installed on the banks of Grand Lake St.
Marys in Spring 2015.
The new playground set will be located on the east
side of Grand Lake St. Marys and feature modern
equipment, an accessible walkway and ADA-compliant handicap accessibility, on-site educational signage
and benches. It will serve as a means to bring families
to the banks of Grand Lake St. Marys, reinforce the
lake’s prominence as an attractive recreation destination, and also provide an opportunity for the LIA to
educate families about the ongoing efforts to restore
the lake via on-site signage. The playground will be
free for public use during park hours.
The LIA is seeking tax-deductible donations to help
fund the playground and installation in partnership
with The St. Marys Community Foundation. Please
consider a tax-deductible donation to help the LIA
make possible a play area all children can enjoy.

the substance. While it’s
never happened, a student could potentially
eat something in the cafeteria or be stung by a bee
for the first time on the
school campus. If the allergy was severe enough,
the student might have a
limited time frame to receive treatment.
However, the difficulty with the school
providing that treatment
is that the school nurse
would essentially have
to determine whether
the symptoms of the
student were consistent
with anaphylactic shock
and make the judgment
of whether to administer the shot, and the
potential for a misdiagnoses would be inherent.
Minster Superintendent
Brenda Boeke said current protocol is for the
nurse to call the squad,
who will then arrive to
make the judgment.
Boeke said the school
nurse expressed concerns about the potential
for repercussions if a student would have a negative reaction to the EpiPen. EpiPen’s website
lists possible side effects
from injecting epinephrine as adrenaline excess that can cause rapid
heartbeat,
trembling,
shaking and anxiety. The
Center for Disease Control estimates allergies
cause 300,000 ambulatory emergencies a year.
Boeke said there’s no
way to be sure if what a
student is experiencing
is a previously unknown
allergy or another condition that could be negatively affected by epinephrine.
“(The nurse) would
100 percent love to have
this and know it would
work,” Boeke said. “By
the same token, she
doesn’t want to play doctor.” In calls to area doctors, who would have to
prescribe an Epi-Pen to
the school, none were
willing to take on that
responsibility or liability, she said.

Police patrol in town with tiger on prowl
PARIS (AP) — Scores
of police patrolled a small
town west of the French
capital on Thursday night
after a tiger eluded a massive search and remained
on the prowl in the region
near Disneyland Paris.
The small beast was
spotted Thursday morning near a parking lot in
Montevrain by a woman
who snapped a photo of
it.
Still on the loose by
nightfall, some began to
doubt whether it really
was a tiger.
The Parc des Felins, a
wild cat animal park 29 kilometers (18 miles) from
Montevrain, said none of
its cats are missing.
EuroDisney, the operator of Disneyland Paris,
a top tourist destination
in Europe, went out of its
way to say the theme park
has no tigers.
But authorities remained on alert.
Montevrain said 100
police would patrol the
town of less than 10,000
overnight and the search
for the animal would begin anew Friday. However, a helicopter with
infrared equipment was
to continue combing the
area overnight, according
to Cedric Tartaud, top
aide to the mayor.
“We ask you for the
greatest prudence,” Montevrain told its residents
on the town’s Facebook
page.
Entrances to the town’s
schools also were being
guarded ahead of Friday
classes.

Other views from around the country
Americans of every stripe should echo The Associated Press’ recent demand that the Federal Bureau
of Investigation never present its agents as journalists again.
This appeal comes after the FBI acknowledged
two weeks ago that one of its agents posed as an AP
reporter to snare a teenager making bomb threats
against a Thurston County high school in 2007.
FBI Director James B. Comey argued in a Friday
letter to The New York Times that, when such tactics
are employed, they are done “reasonably and legally,”
and are subject to close court supervision.
Journalists disagree, and so should anyone who
values the fundamental freedoms of American life.
If sources think that journalists are cooperating with
law enforcement, or actually are law-enforcement officers, those sources with important information to
tell would not trust reporters.
Stories would not be shared, investigated, published. The watchdog would not be as strong.
The AP’s demand is grounded in the constitutional guarantee that the press be free from any government interference. More fundamentally, that First
Amendment aegis preserves the freedom to share
ideas and convey information vital to a functioning
republic.
By impersonating journalists, the FBI directly
infringes upon the freedoms the Founding Fathers
explicitly safeguarded in the Bill of Rights.
And instead of ensuring the safety of Americans,
the secretive intelligence agency could be endangering the lives of America’s truth-tellers.
Such impersonations could imperil the safety of
journalists if violent sources, at home and abroad,
suspect they are cops instead.
Some of America’s enemies believe that American
intelligence operatives often pose as reporters to affect credible and free-ranging cover identities.
By using this ruse at home, the FBI legitimizes
these suspicions abroad. And American journalists
might be endangered because of it.
Think of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl,
who was branded a “spy-journalist” by an al-Qaida
group in Pakistan and beheaded in 2002.
Or American freelance video journalist James Foley, who was beheaded just three months ago. His Islamic State killers later claimed Foley was a spy.
No U.S. agency — whether the FBI, Central Intelligence Agency, or some other entity so shrouded in
secrecy that we don’t know it exists — should ever
allow its agents to masquerade as news gatherers.
This deception undermines core American principles. It should stop.

Obama poised to act on immigration
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
Obama administration is considering a plan that would shield possibly around 5 million immigrants
living in the country illegally from
deportation as part of a broad set
of executive actions that President
Barack Obama could announce as
early as next week, people familiar
with the discussions say.
Obama has pledged to move on
the measures by year’s end, and
White House officials are debating
whether to act soon after he returns
this weekend from his current trip
to Asia and Australia or wait until
after Congress approves a major
spending bill in December.
A senior Obama administration
official said it’s possible Obama’s
immigration announcement could
come next week, but the official
said the president hadn’t made a
decision yet either about timing or
content of the decision.
Several officials said Obama
still hasn’t received formal recommendations from Department of
Homeland Security Secretary Jeh
Johnson, but they said Obama is
well acquainted with the realm of
possibilities. The officials spoke
on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to
discuss the status of the decision
publicly. The 5 million estimate includes extending deportation protections to parents and spouses of
U.S. citizens and permanent residents who have been in the country for some years. The president is
also likely to expand his 2-year-old
program that protects young immigrants from deportation.
Such a step would represent an
expansive use of Obama’s executive authority. The step would fall
shy of what many immigrant advocates have been demanding, but
is sure to enrage Republicans who
are already trying to devise ways
Power

real and what wasn’t (in
the movies) at the time,”
she said.
The black belt’s experiences in rugby and
martial arts guided her
dissertation on gender
in sports. Her current
research is focused on
groups and led by thinking that empowerment
is an equal opportunity
experience that can look
different for each person — particularly each
woman.
Follo described teaching martial arts to students, which at Lake
Campus can come in a
variety of demographics. She said she remembers showing the class
a move and seeing a
non-traditional student,
older somewhat than the
direct-from-high-school
cohort, struggling with
the move, maybe not as
to thwart his actions.
“We’re going to fight the president tooth and nail if he continues
down this path. This is the wrong
way to govern. This is exactly what
the American people said on Election Day they didn’t want,” House
Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio,
said Thursday. “And so, all the options are on the table.”
Some conservatives in the
House and Senate announced
plans to push for language in mustpass spending bills to block the
president from acting. But other
Republicans warned that such a
push could result in another government shutdown like the one
last year over Obama’s health care
plan.
“My sense is that the vast majority of us want to do everything
we can to stop it, but also want to
avoid outcomes that would prove
bad for the country as a whole,”
said Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla. It
wasn’t clear, though, what other
options Republicans had.
Traveling in Asia, Obama said
Friday Congress could simply
undo his executive actions by
passing comprehensive immigration legislation.
“I would advise that if in fact
they want to take a different approach, rather than devote a lot of
time trying to constrain my lawful
actions as the chief executive of
the U.S. government in charge of
enforcing our immigrations laws,
that they spend some time passing
a bill,” he said during a news conference in Yangon, Myanmar.
Immigration advocates, who
spoke on condition of anonymity ahead of a public announcement, said final details of the plan
remained in flux. But the White
House is likely to include parents
and spouses of U.S. citizens and
permanent residents, stipulating
much with the physical
movement required as
giving herself permission
to execute the maneuver.
She said she met the
woman’s eyes.
“You can do this,”
she recalled saying, and
added that the moment is
important in her memory, part of the reason she
wants to do the work,
calling it “the best thing
ever.”
Follo said what she’s
learning about women in
martial arts is that some
women prefer learning
in a mixed sex group and
others prefer an all women’s group but both ways
can be empowering. Follo
also said she’s discovered
a move to be more inclusive about what women
view as empowering or
feminist, whereas in the
past there may have been
a move to exclude expression of femininity in
more traditional ways as
not truly feminist.
Follo said there’s been
a willingness among
that they’ve resided in the U.S. for
some period of time — possibly
as little as five years. That group
totals around 3.8 million people,
according to the Migration Policy
Institute.
Although Obama is not able to
grant citizenship or permanent
resident green cards on his own
without Congress, he can offer
temporary protection from deportation along with work authorization, as he has done in the past.
Adjustments also are expected
to the existing Deferred Action for
Childhood Arrivals program that
allowed immigrants under 31 who
had arrived before June 2007 to
apply for a reprieve from deportation and a work permit. More than
600,000 young immigrants have
been shielded from deportation
to date under the program. Removing the upper age limit so that
applicants don’t have to be under
31 — one option under consideration — would make an additional
200,000 people eligible.
There may also be tweaks to
business visa programs to speed
up visas or make more available for
high-tech workers or others.
Changes are also expected on
the law enforcement side, including to a controversial program
called Secure Communities that
hands over people booked for local crimes to federal immigration
authorities. A former administration official with knowledge of the
plans said the Secure Communities program would be eliminated
or at least renamed, although some
of the concepts would remain.
Priorities for immigrants to be
picked up by immigration authorities will also be revised to eliminate some of the less serious conduct that previously would have
caused someone to be detained,
said the former official.
women to say if a woman
wants to put on makeup,
for example, before she
executes a takedown because it makes her feel
good that doesn’t negotiate her status as an empowered person.
“Society wants to
pit different feminists
against each other,” she
said.
What she’s finding
however is a move to be
inclusive and empowered,
dynamics she’s lucky
to study by comparing
mixed sex and single sex
groups.
For some people, Krav
Maga, developed by the
Israeli military, is empowering because it focuses
on meeting people where
they are physically at any
age and making the focus
survival against a potentially more powerful opponent. The empowerment comes through the
women giving themselves
permission to break societal rules about what is
appropriate behavior for
women. Even imagining
it would be the difference
between life and death, it
can still be very hard for
some women to break
through to a point where
they could hit someone,
essentially asserting their
right to live by whatever
means necessary.
That reticence especially shows up when
students are instructed
to aim for the groin area,
even in a practice situation, as she said she hears
a whoosh of air go around
the room, and a nervousness arise from people
who are afraid they would
hurt their attacker. Follo
said men are socialized to
see themselves as protectors of their families.
“One of the things
women could become
aware of is they don’t
have to be in the victim
role,” Follo said. “They
can make themselves
their own protectors, and
if they have a family they
could choose to defend
that family.”

To
Your
Good
Health
Dr. Keith Roach,
M.D.
DEAR
DR.
ROACH: I am a 66year-old woman with
moderate
osteoporosis, according to a
bone density test done
two months ago. My
T-score in the lumbar
spine was -0.6; in the
left hip -0.3; and in the
left femoral neck -1.2.
My mother also had
osteoporosis and, before she passed a year
ago, had sustained
many falls, though she
did not fracture a hip.
I am wondering what
your thoughts are on
calcium and vitamin D
supplements for myself.
I have read and heard
many opinions about
this, some from doctors
and nurse practitioners,
and am not sure which
way to proceed. I am a
retired RN and have
read and seen many
ways of treating osteoporosis, though I seem
to remember that it is
something that doesn’t
go away. Also, do you
know of any contraindications to taking calcium supplements with
regard to warfarin or
increasing the risks of
cardiac events? -- C.L.
ANSWER: I am
glad to tell you that you
don’t have osteoporosis. What you do have
is low bone mass, or
osteopenia. These are
similar conditions in
that they both refer to
bone loss, but the difference is how much bone
is lost. The T score is
the difference in density between your bones
and a healthy young
woman’s bones. A T
score of zero means no
difference, and a minus
sign indicates that your
bones have less density
(meaning less calcium,
roughly speaking) than
healthy young bone. A
T score between zero
and -1 is considered
normal, -1 to -2.5 represents osteopenia, and
a T score below -2.5 is
osteoporosis, which has
a much higher fracture
rate, though it still is
possible to fracture a
bone with osteopenia,
or even a normal bone.
Density is not a perfect
predictor of fractures.
In women with osteopenia, the goal is
to prevent progression to osteoporosis.
There remains some
controversy about calcium supplements, so
for several reasons,
getting calcium from
diet is preferred. The
controversy is about
a possible increased
risk of heart disease in
calcium-supplement
takers in some, but
not all, studies. Also,
calcium supplements
increase kidney stone
risk, whereas dietary
calcium reduces it. So,
calcium from good dietary sources such as
dairy, calcium-fortified
juices, beans and dark,
leafy green vegetables
are
recommended.
The goal is 1,200 mg
of calcium daily. I also
recommend 800-1,200
IU of vitamin D for
women with osteopenia as a starting point.
For most people, I don’t
recommend treatment
of osteopenia with
most drugs used for osteoporosis.

‘Dumb and
Dumber To’ falls flat
By ROGER MOORE
McClatchy-Tribune News Service
(MCT) — Twenty years after they permanently
lowered the bar on broad and dumb character comedies, Lloyd and Harry are back, “Dumb and Dumber”
than ever in “Dumb and Dumber To.”
And within moments of the opening credits, you
may find yourself overcome with sentimental warmth
at seeing two 50something actors as characters that
the years have not made smarter. Jim Carrey and Jeff
Daniels energetically reprise their popular roles, and
the warmth follows.
Sure, it’s only trickling down your leg and never
comes close to reaching your heart, but warmth is
warmth, right?
Those fart-joke farceurs, the Farrellys, re-team with
their stars and an equally aged supporting cast for a
film of occasional funny lines, random uproarious
sight gags and bodily function jokes, all scented with
a whiff of sad desperation. They’re “Stooges” in a post”Hangover” world, and the staleness shows.
Harry visits a catatonic, bearded Lloyd in a rest
home only to learn he’s been the butt of Lloyd’s 20year-long practical joke. His comeuppance? Harry enlists two groundskeepers to help him yank out Lloyd’s
catheter (after changing his colostomy bag, with his
teeth, of course).
And they’re off, doubling up on a Schwinn to visit
Harry’s estranged Asian parents and then the aged,
bloated floozy (Kathleen Turner, enduring jokes about
her current appearance) who supposedly had Harry’s
baby and gave her up for adoption, decades ago.
Harry needs a kidney donor. So the 50something
“10-year-olds” motor to Maryland and then El Paso in
search of the dopey bombshell (Rachel Melvin, out of
her depth) who might be his donor-daughter, a “genital donor match.”
The Farrellys, who peaked with the raunchy, rude
and yet romantic “There’s Something About Mary” in
1998, hurl miss-or-hit sight gags and throw-away lines
at us. Harry looks over 20 years of mail his parents
saved for him.
“Oh. I got into Arizona State!”
Six credited writers and you get malapropisms such
as “It’s all water under the fridge,” and “That’s just a
suburban legend!” Carrey ensures that he gets almost
all the funny lines here. But the fetching Miss Melvin
tries her hand at a couple as her character wonders if
she should “go to India and volunteer at one of those
Leprechaun colonies!”
The road trips, with Rob Riggle playing a malevolent schemer trying to keep them from reaching Harry’s daughter, have an epic fart joke, but too many lame
zingers to get them or us all the way across the country.
Carrey’s recent appearance on “Saturday Night
Live” reminded us of his gift for mimicry, and his postFarrelly films have shown ambition and flashes of brilliance. Daniels has been reliably funny in a wide range
of comedies over the decades. They can still bring it.
Watching Carrey eat a mustard-drenched hot dog is
positively Keatonesque — Buster, not Michael.
Truth be told, I was never a fan of the first “Dumber,” but the stars made it endurable and convincingly
stupid. Here, they’re sometimes funny, and sometimes
just forlorn. They’re better than this, no matter how
good they are at hiding the fact that they know it.
A whole generation has grown up on the antics of
these two Rhode Island rubes, so a little nostalgia isn’t
unwarranted. Box office hopes for this pre-packaged
but very late sequel should be high. But the strain
shows in the wizened-but-not-wiser stars.
It’s just that comedy left the Farrellys behind over
10 years ago, and even their best efforts at reviving
their PG-13 Three Stooges style feels old-fashioned
and tired.
And that warmth we feel in those promising early
scenes? With luck, it’ll come out in the wash.

Dear
Abby
Abigail Van
Buren
DEAR ABBY: I
am a junior in high
school and will graduate in the first semester of my senior year.
Someday I would like
to be a stay-at-home
mom. I have no interest in going to college. I feel it would be
a waste of money for
me to go when I don’t
intend to use my degree.
To say my parents
are disappointed in
me over this is putting
it mildly. They have
a life planned for me
that includes college.
I would also like to
move away to somewhere where it’s warm
year-round, and they
don’t like that idea either.
How do I make
them understand that
this is MY life and everything will be OK?
-- UNINTERESTED IN IDAHO
DEAR
UNINTERESTED:
I’ll
paraphrase an old
proverb:
“When
man makes plans,
God laughs.” What
it means in your case
is that a smart cookie
stays FLEXIBLE.
Let’s say, for instance, that you get
the life you fantasize
about: You marry a
man who adores you,
doesn’t mind that
you have only a high
school degree and is
wealthy enough to
support you. You have
two or three beautiful children together
and things are going
great.
But what if, heaven
forbid, he becomes
seriously ill and can’t
work -- or worse,
drops dead, leaving
you the sole support
of those kids? It has
been known to happen. (And then, of
course, there’s also
the possibility of divorce, which has been
known to happen,
too.)
Be SMART. Listen
to your parents, and
arm yourself with the
best education you
can possibly attain
because the reality is,
one day you may need
to use it.
DEAR ABBY: I
frequently receive requests via Facebook
and other social media sites asking for
prayers for people
who are ill or suffering a loss. I’m not a
religious person, but I
would like to acknowledge their pain and
extend my sympathy.
Any suggestions? -CHALLENGED IN
TUCSON
DEAR
CHALLENGED: That you
are not a religious person doesn’t mean that
you’re not a caring and
sensitive one. When
you receive news that
someone you know
is going through a
rough patch, respond
by saying you are sorry for his or her pain,
and that he or she is
in your thoughts.

Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline

Obama’s veto pen could be busy
WASHINGTON (MCT) — President Barack Obama might want to find
some veto pens. A lot of them. After setting a modern record for fewest vetoes
thanks to a Democratic Senate — just
two early on in his presidency — Republicans could soon be sending him
reams of legislative cannon fodder.
While conventional wisdom suggests relatively few controversial bills
would head to the president’s desk, because after all, Republicans will need at
least six senators who caucus with the
Democrats to beat back filibusters —
Republicans can bypass filibusters in
multiple ways if Democrats try to gum
up the works.
Republicans have already talked
about using the budget reconciliation
rules to bypass filibusters so they can
put spending and tax bills on the president’s desk with their priorities — in-
cluding potentially an attempt to gut
much of Obamacare.
They also plan to use another power
to strike at the heart of Obama’s penand-phone agenda. Under the Congressional Review Act, the House and Senate can vote to block recently enacted
regulations, and such votes cannot be
filibustered.
Back in 2011, Senate Republicans
forced a vote on a resolution to block
the Federal Communications Commission’s rules on “net neutrality.” ThenSen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, R-Texas, offered the disapproval resolution, which
Democrats rebuffed, 46-52. Should the
FCC move ahead in the coming year on
rules that are in line with what Obama
and the White House outlined Monday, Republicans could have the votes
to send a disapproval resolution to the
president’s desk.
That’s after Republicans from all
corners panned Obama’s announcement Monday that he supported viewing consumer broadband as a utility
and encouraged FCC Chairman Tom
Wheeler to ensure net neutrality.
“The president’s call for the FCC to
use Title II to create new net neutrality restrictions would turn the Internet
into a government-regulated utility and
stifle our nation’s dynamic and robust
Internet sector with rules written nearly 80 years ago for plain old telephone
service,” said Senate Republican Conference Chairman John Thune. “The
president’s stale thinking would invite
legal and marketplace uncertainty and
perpetuate what has needlessly become
a politically corrosive policy debate.”
The South Dakota Republican is in
line to take the gavel of the Commerce,
Science and Transportation Commit-
tee next year. That panel’s jurisdiction
includes telecommunications policy.
The EPA — and climate change regulations in particular — also face incoming fire from Sen. James M. Inhofe,
the Oklahoma Republican in line to regain the chairmanship of the Environment and Public Works Committee.
“Last year, Senator Inhofe said he
would be using the Congressional
Review Act on any major EPA regulation that comes out under the Obama
administration, and I expect you will
only see more momentum for this now
that the Republicans have the majority in the Senate,” Inhofe spokesperson
Donelle Harder told CQ Roll Call in
an email. “There is widespread concern
for how the EPA’s overbearing regulations are going to impact American job
creation and the affordability and reliability of our nation’s electricity grid.”

new CBO head
WASHINGTON (MCT) — Flush from their
capture of the Senate, Republicans in both chambers are reviewing more than a dozen potential candidates to succeed Douglas W. Elmendorf as director of the Congressional Budget Office after his term
expires Jan. 3.
They include Donald Marron, who directs economic policy initiatives at the Urban Institute and
served as acting CBO director in 2006, and N. Gregory Mankiw, a Harvard economist who happened
to be on the dissertation committee for Elmendorf’s
doctoral thesis, according to several sources who are
familiar with GOP discussions. Marron and Mankiw
declined to comment.
The appointment is being closely watched, with a
number of Republicans pushing for CBO to change
its budget scoring rules to use dynamic scoring,
which would try to account for the projected impact
of tax cuts and budget changes on the economy.
Elmendorf, a Democrat whose past jobs include
chief of the macroeconomic analysis section at the
Federal Reserve, still could be reappointed an unprecedented second time after his four-year term
ends next year. He is highly regarded for his professionalism and impartiality among both Republicans
and Democrats on the Hill, as well as among budget
experts.
But that would buck a historical trend. Of the
eight CBO directors since 1975, only two besides Elmendorf have been reappointed: Alice M. Rivlin, the
first director of the CBO, and Robert D. Reischauer.
Elmendorf was first appointed director in January
2009 to fill the unexpired term of Peter R. Orszag,
who left to become President Barack Obama’s budget
director. Elmendorf was then reappointed in 2011.
Elmendorf has not said publicly whether he would
want another term, but when asked about reappointment during a news conference in August, he said, “I
love doing this job. And I’m very focused on doing it.
And I’m going to worry about what happens at the
end of the year when we get to the end of the year.”
Another person under consideration for CBO
director — G. William Hoagland, senior vice president at the Bipartisan Policy Center — said he was
“flattered” to be on the list. But, referring to previous
CBO directors, he added: “No way do I meet the stature of a Rivlin, Reischauer, Orszag, (Douglas) HoltzEakin, (Dan L.) Crippen or Elmendorf.” Hoagland
previously worked as vice president for federal affairs
for Cigna, and earlier served as a top budget aide to
Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist of Tennessee and
former Senate Budget Chairman Pete V. Domenici
of New Mexico.
Apart from Hoagland, only one other person on
the list — William Beach, chief economist for Senate
Budget Committee Republicans — acknowledged
that he is under consideration. Beach will receive his
Ph.D. in economics this month from the University
of Buckingham in England.
Among those being considered, according to
sources, are Alan D. Viard, an economist at the
American Enterprise Institute, and Alex M. Brill, a
research fellow at AEI and former economist at the
House Ways and Means Committee.
NEW YORK (AP) —
Those low gas prices on
station signs aren’t going
away soon, the government says.
In a dramatic shift
from previous forecasts,
the Energy Department
predicted that the average price of gasoline in
the U.S. will be below
$2.94 a gallon in 2015.
That a 44-cent drop from
an outlook issued just a
month ago.
If the sharply lower
estimate holds true, U.S.
consumers will save $61
billion on gas compared
with this year.
Rising oil production,
particularly in the U.S.,
and weak spots in the
global economy have led
to a sharp reduction in
oil prices over the past
four months. Not seeing
much of a change ahead,
the government cut its
forecast for global oil
prices next year by $18 a
barrel to $83.
As a result, U.S. drivers will pay on average 45
cents less for a gallon of
gas next year compared
to this year. Based on
expected gasoline consumption, that’s a savings
of $60.9 billion.
That may not seem like
a lot in the context of a
$17.5 trillion U.S. economy, but economists say it
matters because it immediately gives consumers
more money to spend on
other things. Consumer
spending accounts for 70
percent of the U.S. economy.

“It would be a reversal
of the trend over the last
few years where consumers can’t stretch a dollar
far enough,” says Tim
Quinlan, an economist
at Wells Fargo.
Quinlan says the price
of gasoline is one of the
three big drivers of consumer confidence, along
with stock prices and
the unemployment rate.
“Lately all three are moving in the right direction,” he says.
After falling for 48
straight days, the average gasoline price in the
U.S. is $2.92, the lowest
since December of 2010,
according to AAA. That
was also the last full year
when the average came
in below $3 a gallon.
While it’s not unusual
for gas to hit its low for
the year in late fall, the
government is now saying that these prices
aren’t just a low point,
but instead will be the
norm next year.
Adam Sieminski, administrator of the Energy
Information Administration, the Energy Department’s statistical arm, attributed the lower pump
prices to lower prices for
crude oil and weak fuel
demand. The EIA did
hedge its bet on lower oil
prices though, as it cautioned that OPEC could
cut production in order
to push prices higher.
The global price of
crude has fallen by $35
a barrel, or 30 percent,
since late June and closed
at $80.38 Wednesday.
Oil production around
the world has been strong
in recent years. A boom
in the U.S. has pushed
domestic production up
70 percent since 2008. At
the same time, demand
for fuels is growing more
(AP) — Early enrollment for
the health overhaul’s small business insurance exchanges fell far
short of the 2 million workers who
were expected to sign up this year.
The shortfall calls into question
the future of the exchanges as they
begin accepting enrollment for
2015.
About 76,000 people had purchased coverage on 18 exchanges
through June 1, according to a
report released Thursday by the
U.S. Government Accountability
Office. Enrollment figures from
33 state exchanges that are run
through the federal government
are not yet available, but researchers expect those totals to be low as
well.
“It’s still unclear whether or not
these are going to take off in a substantial way, but we can’t assess
that from where we are now,” said
Linda Blumberg, an economist for
the nonpartisan Urban Institute
who has studied the exchanges.
The Small Business Health Options Program opened this year to
companies with 50 employees or
fewer. Its exchanges were expected to give more options and better
prices to small businesses that can
pay as much as 20 percent more for
their coverage than larger companies.

slowly than expected
in Asia and Europe because of weak economic
growth.
The U.S. economy is
faring relatively well, but
more fuel-efficient cars
and changing driving
habits are keeping domestic gasoline demand
low. The EIA expects demand to fall slightly next
year despite the lower
pump prices.
The EIA also slightly
lowered its prediction for
growth in U.S. oil production because lower
prices will force some
drillers to cut back. Production is expected to
reach 9.4 million barrels
a day in 2015, down from
a previous estimate of 9.5
million barrels per day.
Still, that would be an increase of 4 percent over
this year and the highest
domestic crude production since 1972.

Glance
Wapak faces Wing-T of Tippecanoe
BY BRAD FRANK
WDN Sports Editor
Friday’s matchup features some big-play potential by both offenses.
The Wapakoneta Redskins are coming off of a
season-high scoring output after its 49-14 win
over Talawanda.
The Tippecanoe Red
Devils, meanwhile, are
averaging just under 40
points per game for the
2014 season.
Wapakoneta
(11-0)
and Tippecanoe (9-2) will
meet in a Division III, Region 10 semifinal Friday
at Sidney
Memorial Stadium in
the second round of the
high school football playoffs.
“They’re
extremely
well-coached and have
great players,” Redskins
coach Travis Moyer said
of Tippecanoe. “We expect a great challenge Friday.”
Both teams feature
some speedy playmakers
who could hassle defenders Friday on the newly
installed turf in Sidney.
Tippecanoe’s top offensive performer is lanky
junior Jakob Prall (6 feet,
2 inches; 173 pounds),
who has emerged in a major way for the Red Devils
this season.
Prall — similar to Redskins’ junior playmaker
Cameron Lauck — does
not get the ball often offensively, but when he
does, it impacts the game
in a major way.
This season Prall has
hauled in a receiving TD
every three catches, with
seven TDs on 21 receptions for an average of
24.4 yards per catch.
Prall is also averaging 9
yards per carry, with 928
total and eight rushing
touchdowns. He even has
one passing TD this year.
Last season Prall totaled only 10 yards on six

carries and did not notch
any receptions.
Lauck — who operates
in the Wapakoneta backfield and along the line of
scrimmage as a wideout
— is averaging one TD
every five offensive touches this season.
The Red Devils’ backfield is anchored by senior
fullback Austin Clack
(5 feet, 10 inches; 192
pounds), who was an honorable mention All-Ohio
selection in 2013.
Clack averages 6 yards
per rush and has scored 18
touchdowns this season.
Clack is roughly similar to the fullback for
Wapakoneta’s primary
rival — St. Marys’ Isaac
Fitzgerald — who led the
Western Buckeye League
in rushing yards, rushing
TDs and scoring in 2014.
With almost 100 fewer
carries, Clack has nearly
stiff arms Talawanda junior Logan Keebler (4).
matched Fitzgerald’s 21
rushing scores with 19 of
his own. Fitzgerald also
gained about 6 yards per
attempt this season.
St. Marys’ offense this
season was what the Redskins ran the past four seasons under the same head
coach, Doug Frye.
“Their offense is pretty
similar to St. Marys,”
Wapakoneta linebacker
Adam Henderson said.
“It’s nice seeing that from
St. Marys. We ran that offense last year. Knowing
what they’re going to try
to do just helps being prepared.”
Tippecanoe’s offense is
guided by senior quarterback Zack Blair (6’0, 175).
Blair has 124 attempts
this year for 1,212 yards,
13 TDs and four interceptions.
Kodi Morgan, conversely, has attempted
136 passes this season for
1,119 yards, 10 TDs and
two interceptions for the
Redskins.
Blair is coming off of
a season-high 117-yard
rushing
performance
against Kenton Ridge,
with his previous best this
season being 35 in one
game.
When the Red Devils
pass, Blair usually sprints
one way or another outside of the tackle box to
look for receivers downfield.
Although commonalities exist between Tippecanoe and St. Marys, the
Red Devils also run various formations typical of
spread offenses.
“They present us a lot of
challenges for the fact that
they have the ability to go
underneath center and
run the ball. They have the
ability to play-action pass
on you and also spread
you out,” Moyer said.
“We’re going to have to be
extremely disciplined.”
The Wapakoneta defense was tested the most
it has been all season
last Friday in their firstround contest against the
Talawanda Braves, who
featured senior Maurice
Thomas — a commit to
Miami (Ohio) University.
Thomas entered the
game with a 250 yards
per game rushing average with 29 TDs on the
ground.
The Redskins contained Thomas somewhat,
surrendering 209 yards
and two rushing scores to
him.
Thomas’ TD run on the
Braves’ first drive of the
game was the first rushing
score the Redskins’ starting defense allowed this
season.
Coming off the program’s first-ever playoff
victory with a 36-7 win
over Crestview, Spencerville now takes on
undefeated Tinora at
Spartan Stadium tonight.
Spencerville’s Zach
Goecke ran for 151 yards
on 23 carries in the win.

No. 8 Ohio St. must avoid trap at Minnesota
M I N NE A POLIS
(AP) — With a decisive
win over rival Iowa, Minnesota regained a treasured traveling trophy and
forged a three-way tie for
first place in the Big Ten
West Division with three
games to go.
Coach Jerry Kill could
be forgiven, though, for
his reluctance to revel the
rest of the weekend.
“We come off a good
win, and then you go
home, and you’re going
to kick back and relax and
get you a bowl of ice cream
and then you put on the
TV and then you watch
Ohio State,” Kill said. “So
then you don’t sleep the
rest of the night, you don’t
get a chance to enjoy the
win, and now all you do is
worry about what you’re
going to do.”
The Gophers knew
how grueling November
was going to be, but about
eight hours after that
51-14 humiliation of the
Hawkeyes the challenge
came sharply into focus.
The Buckeyes dismantled
Michigan State’s daunting defense with a 49-37

Series Record: Ohio State leads 43-7.
WHAT’S AT STAKE
Ohio State, fresh from a dismantling of Michigan State’s defense,
has surged forward in the push for a place in the College Football
Playoff. If the Buckeyes can avoid a letdown at Minnesota, they’ll
have a smooth path to the Big Ten championship with home games
against Indiana and Michigan to follow. The Gophers also have their
sights set on a spot in the conference title game, with a three-way
tie for first place in the West Division, and an upset here would be a
huge boost toward that goal.
KEY MATCHUP
Ohio State QB J.T. Barrett against the weather. The Gophers have
a decent defense, having held Iowa to 205 total yards in a 51-14
blowout of the Hawkeyes last week. They’re fifth in the conference
in points allowed and second in interceptions. Just as important will
be Barrett’s ability to keep his feet and keep the Buckeyes offense
humming on an afternoon with a forecast high of 26 degrees and a
chance of snow.
PLAYERS TO WATCH
Ohio State: WR Devin Smith is second in the Big Ten with eight
touchdown catches, coming off a stellar performance against the
Spartans in which he had six receptions for 129 yards.
Minnesota: RB David Cobb, playing his last home game, is third in
the FBS in carries per game with 25.2. The Gophers are 9-2 when
he reaches 100 yards rushing or more.
FACTS & FIGURES
The Buckeyes are 36-2 against the Gophers since losing at Minnesota in 1966. The only wins by the Gophers in that span were in

catches, one behind Cris Carter for second place on Ohio State’s
all-time list. David Boston (34) is the leader. ... The Gophers are 6-0
at home. The last season they won all their home games was 1967.
Football Playoff.
Ohio State (8-1, 5-0),
eighth in both the Associated Press poll and the latest CFP rankings that will
determine the final four,
has won 12 straight games
in an opponent’s stadium.
That’s the longest active
streak in the FBS. The
Buckeyes, though beaten
by the Spartans in the
conference title game last
year, have won 21 regular
season Big Ten games in
a row. They’re 9-0 in November under coach Urban Meyer. They haven’t
lost at Minnesota since
1981.
That’s all part of why
this matchup with the
Gophers (7-2, 4-1, No. 25
CFP) could be dangerous.
“This is kind of like one
of those trap games. It’s going to be cold,” Ohio State
defensive tackle Adolphus
Washington said. “We just
have to go out and play because Minnesota is what,
7-2? They’re not a bad
team.”
Here are some key
angles to know about the
Ohio State-Minnesota
game:
conditions will hardly be
ideal for the speed-based
spread option offense the
Buckeyes have humming
behind quarterback J.T.
Barrett.
“By any means, at all
costs, as the coach says.
The weather’s not going
to be a factor. They put on
their pants just like we do,”
safety Vonn Bell said.
They’ve played three
straight night games, so
this will be an adjustment
in several ways. But don’t
count on the Buckeyes
being caught off guard by
these hurdles.
“You just have to go out
there and play. There’s always going to be some different reason why you’re
not going to play your
best game, but you have to
push through that,” defensive tackle Michael Bennett said.
ABOUT THAT
WEATHER
BEYOND HIS YEARS
He understands defenses
really well now. And his
accuracy, when he’s accurate, that’s a tough one to
stop,” Meyer said.
NONCOMPETE
CLAUSE?
The Gophers are 2-36
against the Buckeyes since
1966, last winning at Ohio
Stadium in 2000. The average score of the last five
matchups has been 40-9,
but this will be Kill’s first
shot in four years with the
program. Ohio State won
the last meeting, 52-10 at
Minnesota in 2010.
SENIOR DAY
The Gophers are trying
to go unbeaten at home for
the first time since 1967,
and this will be the last
time playing in Minnesota for 22 seniors, many
of whom comprised Kill’s
first recruiting class.

in the four-man Sprint Cup championship finale. Hamlin, Joey Logano
and Ryan Newman advanced through
points. Jeff Gordon, Brad Keselowski,
Kenseth and Carl Edwards dropped

at the track. Newman is winless in his
first season in Richard Childress Racing’s No. 31 Chevrolet.
Gordon can return to Browns on Monday
BEREA (AP) — For
two months, suspended
wide receiver Josh Gordon has passed Browns
offensive coordinator
Kyle Shanahan in the
hallway and had the
same conversation.
“I always ask him
how many days, and he
always knows the exact number,” Shanahan
said.
It’s down to just a few.
Gordon’s
10-game
suspension for repeated
violations of the NFL’s
drug policy is set to end
Monday, when the Pro
Bowler will be allowed
to rejoin his teammates
after being exiled since
September.
The Browns, who
managed to move into
first place in the AFC
North without Gordon,
can’t wait to have their
troubled, big playmaking
star back in the huddle.
“I can’t wait to get
him back, looking forward to it,” said Shanahan, who hasn’t been
able to devise a game
plan that includes Gordon. “I haven’t seen him
out on the football field
since training camp, so
we got to see where he’s
at physically and everything and we’ll try to
get him in there. And as
soon as he’s ready to go,
we’ll make sure to work
to get him the ball.”
Gordon had a oneyear ban reduced to 10
games on Sept. 19 for numerous failed drug tests.
The Browns had feared
they would be without
him all season, but the
lessening of his suspension will bring him back
just as the club is poised
to make a strong run
In this Aug. 18, 2014, file photo, Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon
warms up before an NFL preseason football game. Gordon’s 10-game suspension for repeated violations of the NFL’s drug policy is set to end Monday, Nov.

Devon Still eager to shake Payton’s hand
CINCINNATI (AP)
— Bengals defensive
tackle Devon Still is eager to shake hands with
Saints coach Sean Payton
and say thanks in person
for buying so many of his
jerseys.
Payton bought 100 of
Still’s jerseys — at $100
apiece — when the lineman and the Bengals were
starting a campaign to
raise money for pediatric
cancer research and treatment. Still’s 4-year-old
daughter, Leah, started
another round of treatment for cancer this week
at a Philadelphia hospital.
Still and Payton have
talked on the phone. They
plan to meet on the field
Sunday in New Orleans
after the Bengals (5-3-1)
play the Saints (4-5) in an
important game for both
teams.
“He’s basically what got
the ball rolling with everything,” Still said. “A lot of
the credit goes to him for
what he did.
“You can’t thank somebody the way you want to
or are supposed to over the
phone. It’s something you
have to do face-to-face, so
I’m definitely looking forward to meeting him.”
Leah was diagnosed
with cancer in early June
and had a tumor removed
from her abdomen. The
Bengals decided to donate proceeds from sales
of Still’s No. 75 jersey to
Children’s Hospital in
Cincinnati for pediatric
cancer research.
The team presented a
check for more than $1
million to the hospital
after the first quarter of
a 24-3 loss to Cleveland
last Thursday night at Paul
Brown Stadium. Leah flew

in from Philadelphia and
was on the field for a loud
ovation from the crowd.
Payton was one of the
first NFL coaches outside
of Cincinnati to embrace
the cause. His example
prompted others to donate to pediatric cancer
research. Payton heard
about Still’s daughter on a
radio program while driving his car.
“Just hearing how they
handled it was pretty inspirational,” Payton said
this week, during a conference call with reporters in
Cincinnati. “It was really
spontaneous and something I thought would be a
good gesture.”
Payton has some connections with the Bengals.
He was an assistant coach
at Miami University in
nearby Oxford, Ohio, in
the 1990s and knows the
Brown family that owns
the Bengals. His familiarity with the team was a
factor in deciding to support Still.
“I really wasn’t familiar
with Devon as a player and
have obviously become
more familiar with him,”
Payton said.
Still’s story has gotten a
lot of attention from players around the league as
well. Browns quarterback
Brian Hoyer went up to
him after the game on
Thursday night to encourage him.
“He was just saying that
he respects what I’m doing
for pediatric cancer and
telling me how he gives
me a lot of credit for being
able to deal with what’s going on with my daughter
and still be out here playing football,” Still said.
Hoyer said that Still’s
story resonated with him
as a parent.
“I can’t imagine what
he’s gone through,” Hoyer
said. “Reading the stories,
it gets you choked up because you put yourself in
that situation and with especially how demanding
this job is.”
Leah has gotten chemotherapy and radiation
treatment. She started another round on Wednesday, and doctors hope
this one will get rid of the
remaining cancer cells.
She’ll have another body
scan in four to six weeks
to see if the cancer is gone
or if more treatment is
needed
“Hopefully this is the
one and only,” Still said.
Notes: Right tackle
Andre Smith (ankle),
linebacker Vontaze Burfict (knee), cornerback
Terence Newman (knee)
and running back Giovani Bernard (shoulder/
hip) were held out of practice on Thursday. Burfict
has missed the last two
games while recovering
from knee surgery and
was limping this week. ...
Linebacker Rey Maualuga
was limited in practice for
the second day in a row.
He missed the last four
games with a strained left
hamstring and returned
to practice this week.
and Gordon damaged
his chances of getting
any leniency when he
was arrested on drunken
driving charges in North
Carolina.
Gordon’s legal team
unsuccessfully argued
to an arbitrator that
his failed drug test was
the result of secondhand smoke and he was
pushed to the sideline,
forced to sit and watch
for 10 games.
On the brink of his return, his teammates believe Gordon is ready to
atone for his missteps.
“His mindset is he
wants to come back and
do something special in
the last six games,” safety Donte Whitner said.
“I don’t know if that’s
go for 1,000 yards in six
games or something like
that, but I know he wants
to do something special.
I know he missed two
games last year and went
over 1,600, so he can do
some special things.”
Gordon has only been
allowed to work out
by himself during the
suspension. When the
Browns have practiced
outdoors, Gordon has
been confined to the indoor field house, working with a strength coach
and catching passes from
a machine.
He’s told his teammates he’s ready.
“He’s just hungry,
man, just so hungry and
excited to get back out
here,” said Pro Bowl
cornerback Joe Haden.
“J.G., he loves football
and he’s really, really
good at it. He can’t wait
to get back out here and
start playing again.”

Just for Fun
BABY BLUES
Hints
from
Heloise
MAKE MOSS TAKE A HIKE
Dear Heloise: I have a patio
on the lower level of our
house that is covered by a
large deck. Every fall, this
porch is covered with bright
green MOSS -- even the
ground around the porch is
covered. What can you suggest that will remove this
thick covering of moss? -Nancy S., Knoxville, Tenn.
A tried-and-true Heloise hint!
Moss can be ugly, but it’s
easy to scare away and keep
away! First, scrub off as much
as possible with a brush. You
can use a stiff broom, or a
push broom if the patio is a
large space.
The next step? Kill it! You can
use full-strength (5 percent),
cheap white or apple-cider
vinegar. I just pour it on the
driveway, let it sit about 30
minutes, scrub and let dry. No
need to rinse. Please see the
photo of my driveway where I
tested some vinegar at www.
Heloise.com.
The other option? Regular
(not scented) household
bleach (6 percent sodium
hypochlorite) and water. The
suggested ratio is 1/2 cup
bleach to 1 gallon of water.
Stronger is NOT better,
according to the manufacturers and experts in the field.
Apply and let work for at least
five to 10 minutes, scrub
again and rinse off. If there is
vegetation where the runoff
might go, do rinse with water
first to avoid any damage to
the plant life. -- Heloise

EASY LEVEL
Dear Heloise: Some smartphones come equipped with
a level. You would be amazed
at all the things a smartphone
can do. If you don’t know
what yours can do, start
exploring, or look at the
instruction manual. -- Annabelle, via email
Instruction manual? Who
reads the instruction manual?
I do! Yes, it may seem boring
to some, but there is a lot of
information you don’t know in
those pages. Don’t cross
your eyes! Just thumb
through a few pages at a
time, mark the new information and move on. -- Heloise
RETAIL
ZITS
TRAVEL HINT
FAMILY CIRCUS
DENNIS THE MENACE
Dear Heloise: When traveling, it’s sometimes hard to tell
which clothes are dirty. When
I take clothes off, I turn them
inside out. I can see which
have been worn and which
are clean. When I get home, I
can throw them right into the
washer. -- Ray from New York
Love the travel hint! I put the
dirty ones in a plastic laundry
bag from the hotel. No guessing or odor! -- Heloise
LOST FAMILY PHOTOS
Dear Heloise: A family member had damage to his home
and lost all of his family photos. Our family and friends
got together with our photos
and put the ones that our
relative might want together.
We made copies and gave
them to him. He and his family were so grateful that we
gave them a little of what they
had lost. -- Haddie in Illinois
GARAGE SALE
YOUR DAILY HOROSCOPE
For Saturday, Nov. 15, 2014
Dear Heloise: My son collects
small toys from kids meals at
restaurants, birthday parties,
etc. I save them for the next
garage sale. The children
who come with parents get to
pick one toy for free. -- Patty

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)
Travel for pleasure and a chance to talk to
people from different backgrounds will
thrill you today. The bottom line is this:
You want to have fun! (It’s a good date
day.)
Take some time to work alone or behind
the scenes today, because you can do
something to make a difference at home or
for a family member. Research will go well.
Relations with partners and close friends
are much improved today. What a relief.
Just go with the flow and enjoy the company of others, especially loved ones.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
Activity with a female friend today will
delight you. This could be lunch, a meeting
or just a fun conversation. This person will
invigorate you!
Family discussions will go well today,
especially about inheritances, shared property and anything having to do with shared
expenses. People are willing to cooperate
today.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
You can get a lot done by working in tandem with someone today, especially a
partner or close friend. Their energy will
keep you going, and vice versa.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
This is a productive day at work, no question. You’re prepared to work hard to get
results, and at the same time, you are
observant and caring about others.
LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22)
The Moon is still in your sign! Fortunately,
things are much better than yesterday.
Enjoy movies, sports events, the arts, the
theater, playful times with children and all
social occasions.
LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)
SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)
Enjoy being high-viz today, because others
admire you. And yes, they will talk about
you. But you look good, so don’t worry!
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)
Grab every opportunity to expand your
horizons today. Explore further education,
training, talking to people from other countries and, of course, travel, if possible!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)
You might be pleased with how matters are
settled regarding insurance issues or
shared property. However, this is not your
day to ask for a loan or mortgage. Don’t
spend money today in any way.
PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20)
Your efficiency at work might suffer somewhat due to shortages and delays. Just
accept this, and don’t be too hard on yourself or others. Life is short (and fat).
YOU BORN TODAY You are patient, brave
and never back down from a challenge.
You are also passionate and surprising in
romance. (And memorable!) You plan
when to speak and when to act. Settle your
debts this year to prepare for financial
accumulation in the next three years. To
clear away indebtedness is the thrust of
this year. Consolidate your affairs for future
growth.

Sean Murray, actor; Jonny Lee Miller, actor.
