B1 Teen charged after 3-car accident Friday on N. Main St. S BY TRC DVIS TH SHRIDN PRSS SHRIDN teenager under the influence of inhalants is thought to be the cause of a three vehicle accident at the intersection of North Main Street and 11th Street Friday night. Sheridan Police Lt. Chris Dahmke said officers were dispatched to the location at approximately 9:45 p.m. and found one of the vehicles had come to rest in the yard of a residence on the 500 block of North Main Street, and the 17-year-old driver of the vehicle was laying on the ground with an injured leg. "The driver had made the comment he had been huffing, which means inhaling intoxicants like canned air or paint, and had blacked out," Dahmke said. He added that huffing is a dangerous practice that can potentially lead to irreversible brain damage. "It actually causes permanent damage after heavy use and probably even moderate use," he said. "If there had been high speeds involved in this crash, someone probably would have died." Dahmke indicated there were other passengers in the car at the time of the accident, one of whom was transported to Sheridan Memorial Hospital along with the driver for injuries. CCIDNT, PG 2 Improvements for city parks, pathways in the works BY HNNH WIST TH SHRIDN PRSS 3, 2, 1 Takeoff! n owl found on top of a resident s house in Sheridan takes flight Sunday evening. TH SHRIDN PRSS JUSTIN SHLY SHRIDN Sheridan City Council held a work session Monday to discuss Sheridan s parks and pathways. The discussion included project highlights from the year and goals for future expansion of one of Sheridan s signature perks. Of Sheridan s 8.5 square miles of land area, approximately 11 percent, or nearly 600 acres, is dedicated to parks and open spaces to be used for recreation and relaxation. Sheridan also boasts approximately 14 miles of pathways, a system that stretches north to south through town and connects nearly every school. Parks Superintendent Chuck Carbert highlighted numerous projects that were completed over the last year and delineated future goals for the parks and pathways system. Sheridan Recreation District Business Manager Rich Bridger also discussed the status of Kendrick Pool. The highlight is the work that we re doing to the pathway system, extending it north and south out of town, Carbert said. Pathways are linear parks. If you get out and walk and travel our pathway system, you ll see how heavily used they are. I believe pretty much all of our parks are actually connected by this pathway system, so it s very important. In the last year, city crews paved the 1.25 miles of pathways in North Park, which consisted of a gravel base for a couple years. S PRKS, PG 2 arly childhood symposium to be held at Sheridan College BY CHRISTIN SCHMIDT TH SHRIDN PRSS SHRIDN Sheridan will host the statewide symposium Building Communities Where Children and Families Thrive: The Science of arly Childhood on Sept. 26 and 27. The event will be held at Sheridan College in the Whitney Presentation Hall and is free and open to the public. What we are trying to do is really raise people s knowledge of the link between adversity in early childhood and impacts on the individuals and communities over time, said Michelle Sullivan, who is helping organize the event on behalf of the Homer and Mildred Scott Foundation and the Center for Inspired Learning nvironments. I think we all kind of inherently understand that early childhood is an important topic but this new research really shows how critically it is linked to the success of individuals over the course of their entire lives, she added. Sullivan said the focus of the symposium is to present cutting-edge research on early childhood development issues and translate that research into on-the-ground efforts that will positively impact the health and vitality of children and families over the long term. Several national experts will present their research throughout the two days and First Lady Carol Mead will open Friday s program. It has really not happened in the state before as far as I know, Sullivan said about the caliber of the symposium and the speakers coming to present. The uniqueness of it is bringing really strong research into practice.

She said Friday s presentations are geared toward a broader audience including business owners, policy makers and other members of the community who can contribute to the well-being of community children. The programs begin each day at 8:30 a.m. complete agenda of events is available at www.wyokidsfirst.org I am hoping that we ll begin a regional dialogue that this is not an issue reserved for families and parents and caregivers, but it needs to be a community conversation and ultimately our community will be much more vital if we are paying attention to how we support all children and families in our communities, Sullivan said. I think a lot of adversity in Sheridan and a lot of communities like ours is hidden, she continued. You have a significant amount of the population that is in very stressful situations and trying to go it alone and that is extremely damaging for children in particular. So by really understanding how we all take responsibility for creating those systems of support, I think we can improve the outcomes for all children. lthough the event is free, organizers are asking that participants pre-register if possible at www.wyokidsfirst.org or by calling 307-996-6903. CCIDNT: Unclear if alcohol was involved FROM 1 The occupants of the other two vehicles involved in the accident declined medical care at the scene. Dahmke said alcohol was also present at the crash site, but it is unclear whether the teenager had consumed any or just had it in his possession. Dahmke said the teenager was ultimately charged with five offenses: driving under the influence, minor in possession, driver's license required, seatbelt required and running a stop sign. court date has been set for Oct. 8 in circuit court. The MIP citation was one of three issued by Sheridan Police over the weekend. nother was given to a 20-year-old female who had fake identification. This was her second MIP offense citation. different MIP citation stemmed from a parent who notified police when their child came home intoxicated. PRKS: Pool only has a few years left Ponds pathway across from South Park that extends On the opposite end of from Brundage Lane along town, crews created the Teal Wetlands Drive to Coffeen venue across from Sheridan College. The pathway has a gravel base and will be paved at a later date. Public Works Director Nic Bateson said the city is working with the Wyoming Department of Transportation on design concepts for pathway crossings on Brundage Lane and Coffeen venue. The North and South Park pathways were paid for with public benefit and Optional One-Cent Sales Tax funds. The city is working on the dams Ranch pathway to reach Woodland Park School, which is the only school not connected to the pathway system, Carbert said. Other pathways in progress include South Dome Drive to West Loucks Street, Marion Street between ighth and 11th streets and Colony South down to the pathway between Sheltered cres Park and South Park, which will likely be a step system due to the slope of the hill. In Kendrick Park, the lion dogs at the entrance were sent to a conservator in Denver for repair, additional sod and fencing was added and the bathrooms were updated with improved flushing mechanisms and soap dispensers. n arboretum with 56 trees was planted below Kendrick Mansion. The road and parking lot at Mavrakis Pond was paved with a porous black top that will allow water to seep through and be purified by a layer of rocks beneath the paving before it runs into the pond. FROM 1 Carbert also highlighted Huntington Bowl Dog Park, which will be more than two acres once it s complete. He said there have been a few problems with off-leash dogs getting into surrounding neighborhoods, so the parks department plans to fence the area. We have the one dog park in the community, and we want to try to create at least one more or maybe an offleash area up in the north. We have the center part of the community covered, and we d like to cover the south part of the community, as well as do something up north, Carbert said. In the future, the city hopes to install an educational boardwalk over the wetlands in South Park and make Mill Park an area to interpret local and regional history at the confluence of the Goose creeks where so much of that history occurred, Carbert said. Funding efforts and a public input process are underway for the Kendrick Park Pool, Carbert said. stimates to fix the pool came in at 1.5 to 2 million, while the cost to build a new pool will be approximately 5 to 7 million. Regardless of funding or non-funding, that pool has a limited lifespan, Bridger said. Kendrick Pool has been open since 1947, and Bridger said it is estimated to have three to five years left. We have to figure out how to take care of what we ve got, or in the future people will look back and say, Remember Kendrick Park Pool? I wonder why they didn t do more to save it?, Mayor Dave Kinskey said. Former Laramie mayor joins credentials lawsuit LRMI (P) former Laramie mayor who was recently hired for a city management job has entered a lawsuit in which the city is suing a newspaper and a city councilor over their efforts to get access to the former mayor s personnel records. The Laramie Boomerang reports that District Judge Jeffrey Donnell has granted a request from former mayor Jodi Guerin to enter the lawsuit. The city sued after the newspaper and Councilor Joe Vitale requested information about Guerin s qualifications. She was hired as city recreation manager in March at a salary of 62,000 a year. The city is asking for the judge to declare whether it has to release the information. Guerin requested to get into the lawsuit saying she wants to protect her interest in keeping the job.

TUSDY, SPTMBR 24, 2013 www.thesheridanpress.com TH SHRIDN PRSS 3 City Planning Commission OKs rezone on Val Vista BY HNNH WIST TH SHRIDN PRSS SHRIDN Sheridan City Planning Commission voted Monday to recommend approval for a rezone on Val Vista Street. The rezone would consist of nearly 17,000 square feet of property west and south of Zowada Plumbing, located at 724 Val Vista St. between West Third and West Fourth streets. The zoning would change from R- 3 residential to B-1 business. Dan Black, who owns Zowada Plumbing, which is zoned B-1, and the land behind Zowada that is zoned R-3 submitted the original petition for a rezone since the area behind Zowada has historically been used for parking and staging in conjunction with commercial activity at 724 Val Vista St. Kent and Katie Sherwood, who own Sheridan Physical Therapy on the corner of West Third and Val Vista streets, as well as the property zoned R-3 south of Zowadas, joined the petition to have the property at 706 Val Vista St. rezoned to B-1. The primary reason for the rezone request was to bring zoning consistency to the block, Planning and Development Director Robert Briggs said. The area is on the fringe of the downtown area, Briggs said. dditionally, the use of surrounding parcels is mixed but leans more toward the business/commercial side. Lots 715 through 743 on the east side of Val Vista are all rental properties zoned R-3 residential, which is the most lenient residential zoning. Briggs said city staff felt impacts to the surrounding area would be minimal with a rezone since Val Vista is already used for commercial traffic. The properties are served with water and sewer that will be sufficient for the commercial uses allowed under B-1 zoning. Commissioners held little discussion before voting to recommend approval of the rezone to City Council, which will consider the matter Oct. 7.

Durham police spokeswoman Kammie Michael did not respond to messages from The ssociated Press asking why police officers were pursuing the man. She referred questions to the school and the State Bureau of Investigation, which is reviewing the shooting. SBI agents called in to help by campus police were working to confirm the dead man s identity, spokeswoman Jennifer Canada said. The officers have been placed on administrative leave while the SBI investigates. University Chancellor Debra Saunders-White said in an email to students, faculty and staff that the school would hold a meeting Tuesday to discuss the events. North Carolina Central is part of the University of North Carolina system with an enrollment of more than 8,000 students. The historically black school opened in 1910.

Former Yellowstone superintendents Bob Barbee and Mike Finley joined current Superintendent Dan Wenk for a fireside chat on Saturday with several hundred members of the Greater Yellowstone Coalition. The Jackson Hole News & Guide reports the three said that, although the park is healthy in many respects, there are looming threats to its integrity. mong the problems are bison herds that find natural wintering grounds outside Yellowstone and decimation of the native cutthroat trout population by exotic lake trout. The three spoke at a convention in West Yellowstone, Mont., celebrating the 30th anniversary of the conservation organization. They said park managers alone may not be able to defend Yellowstone adequately and support from outsiders is critical. Barbee, who served from 1982 to 1994, said, things are in better shape today than they ever have been. Barbee said grizzly bear numbers have increased and wolves are back as part of the landscape in the years since he first served as superintendent. Finley served from 1994-2001, and Wenk has been in the job since 2011. Wenk agreed with Barbee about improvements with grizzlies and wolves, but said Yellowstone still has a number of problems. Wenk said the National Park Service has not decided how to cope with global warming, Wenk said. He said grizzlies remain a threatened species as key foods have dwindled for a variety of reasons.

OPINION 4 TH SHRIDN PRSS www.thesheridanpress.com TUSDY, SPTMBR 24, 2013 High risk, low yield This has been the worst time, politically, for President Barack Obama since he took office. Recent polls reveal that public confidence in both his domestic and foreign policies has been falling, amid revelations about their defects and dangers. ven people who once supported and defended him have now turned against him. There have even been rumblings against Barack Obama in the Congressional Black Caucus and among labor unions that were a major factor in helping him get elected and re-elected. Two of President Obama's own former Secretaries of Defense have publicly criticized his gross mishandling of the Syria crisis, which has emboldened merica's enemies and THOMS SOWLL undermined our allies around the world. s ObamaCare continues to go into effect, step by step, its high costs and dire consequences for jobs have become ever more visible as have the lies that Obama blithely told about its costs and consequences when it was rushed into law too fast for anyone to see that it would become a "train wreck," as one of its initial Democratic supporters in the Senate has since called it. s more and more revelations have come to light about the cynical and dangerous misuse of the Internal Revenue Service to harass and sabotage conservative political groups, the lies that the Obama administration initially told about this, as part of the coverup, have also been exposed. So have the lies told about what happened in Benghazi when four mericans were killed last year. Their killers remain at large, though they are known and are even giving media interviews in Libya. With Congressional investigations still going on, and turning up more and more revelations about multiple Obama administration scandals, the political problems of this administration seem to loom ahead as far out as the eye can see. What could possibly rescue Barack Obama from all these political problems and create a distraction that takes all his scandals off the front page? Only one thing: the Republicans. By making a futile and foredoomed attempt to defund ObamaCare, Congressional Republicans have created the distraction that Obama so much needs. lready media attention has shifted to the possibility of a government shutdown. Politically, it doesn't matter that the Republicans are not really trying to shut down the government. What matters is that this distraction solves Barack Obama's political problems that he could not possibly have solved by himself. Should ObamaCare be defunded? bsolutely. It is an economic disaster and will be a medical disaster, as well as destroying the Constitution's protections of merican citizens from the unbridled power of the federal government. For that matter, President Obama deserves to be impeached for arbitrarily waiving laws he doesn't like, in defiance of his oath of office and the Constitution's separation of powers. Chief Justice John Roberts also deserves to be impeached for his decision upholding ObamaCare, by allowing the government's taxing power to override all the Constitution's other provisions protecting merican citizens from the arbitrary powers of government. But, for the same reason that it makes no sense to impeach either President Obama or Chief Justice Roberts, it makes no sense to attempt to defund ObamaCare. That reason is that it cannot be done. The world is full of things that ought to be done but cannot in fact be done. The time, effort and credibility that Republicans are investing in trying to defund ObamaCare is a high risk, low yield investment. ven if, by some miracle, the Republicans managed to get the Senate to go along with defunding ObamaCare, President Obama can simply veto the bill. There is a United States of merica today only because George Washington understood that his army was not able to fight the British troops everywhere, but had to choose carefully when and where to fight. Futile symbolic confrontations were a luxury that could not be afforded then and cannot be afforded now.

LTTR Good city employees needed Re: Press editorial, Sept. 14 When you need to get the word out on something going on in the small community of seniors that I live near, you do it one of two ways: either, "tell it to Virginia or put it in The Sheridan Press." Most people operate daily going about their daily schedules and routines without knowing all the information. We are all products of not clearly and consistently communicating all we know to one another. The Sheridan Press is no exception. Restrictions are clear on not using road and bridge funds to give pay raises to the city s workforce. Repairs to roads are collected from the tax we all pay on gasoline and can only be used for that purpose. Water, sewer and garbage taxes are used for some of the repairs on the cities infrastructures in the cities that they are collected. Grant money for our pathway system has to be accountable in improving and maintaining our pathways. nd who doesn't think we have some wonderful paths throughout the area to walk and ride on? The idea behind this restriction is to give fiscal soundness to a city s budget. We should avoid the embarrassment of what happened in Detroit. The default response in the U.S., given our free society, is that it is cheaper to just pay the money than risk litigation, according to the Press. This solution is costly to all involved and is contrary to creating a sustainable community. I have never heard Mayor Dave Kinskey say anything negative about the work that city employees and staff do for the city of Sheridan. It should seem evident to folks in the community that Sheridan is doing well thanks to the hard work of its employees. We have a clean, well-lit, attractive and safe environment to raise a family or retire to a beautiful surrounding. For the city of Sheridan to remain competitive in acquiring competent employees for jobs that may be required in the future and after the hiring freeze is lifted, it must pay wages that would allow a professional to want to work in government. Sheridan city government is not reinventing the wheel in a nation trying to recover from a crippling economic recession. It can look at other similar metropolitan situations and see how they have addressed pay raise issues. Or, it can say, our roof just never leaks when it is not raining." With winter fast approaching, my plan is to stay warm and dry. Republicans dangerous rationality DN MILBNK QUOTBL It has become fashionable to give a psychiatric diagnosis to those Republicans teeing up a government shutdown. They re on a different planet, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), a member of the Senate Democratic leadership, said last week. Off the deep end. Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said Republicans define insanity with their behavior. I ve lapsed into the off-the-rocker shorthand, too, but this misstates and understates the problem. The trouble isn t that Republicans on the defund-obamacare mission are insane. It s that they are being entirely rational. Certainly, what they are doing is dangerous to the country and to the GOP brand: minority are saying that if their demands are not met, they will throw the nation into default and shock the economy by closing down the government. But this doesn t mean that the 228 House Republicans (joined by two Democrats) were acting irrationally when they voted Friday to keep the government operating only if Obamacare is jettisoned. Most of them were acting in their own rational selfinterest, doing what s necessary to survive in a political system gone mad. The tally by political handicapper Stuart Rothenberg says that 211 of the 234 Republican seats in the House are safe, leaving only 23 even marginally competitive. Some of those seats are made safe by the incumbents skills or bank accounts. But many of them are safe because district lines have been drawn to make them uncompetitive. The only way these Republican lawmakers would lose their seats is if they were ousted by a challenger in a low-turnout primary dominated by conservative activists and distorted by an explosion of independent expenditures by ideological groups. The surest way to keep their spots, therefore, is to vote against anything and everything President Obama supports Obamacare above all. The situation is similar for Republicans in the Senate, where 14 of the 15 GOP seats up in the next election cycle are either safely Republican or favoring the Republicans. To them, as well, the threat comes primarily if not entirely from the right. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.), the man leading the shutdown campaign, knows this better than anybody. Sen. John McCain (R-riz.) called him a wacko bird, but Cruz is, in fact, coldly calculating. new article about Cruz by Jason Zengerle in GQ confirms my impression of him as an opportunist driven more by ambition than ideology. Harvard Law School roommate of Cruz s told Zengerle that Cruz refused to study with anyone who hadn t been an undergraduate at Harvard, Princeton or Yale. But when the tea party became a political force and Cruz saw a route to power, he shed his elitism and posed as a rebellious outsider. His rise, and his ability to make even the grizzled Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell cower, is the result of a cunning and thoroughly rational exploitation of the system. The only wacko bird in Cruz s office is on the Daffy Duck baseball cap that he keeps as an answer to McCain. nd McConnell, who is facing a conservative primary challenge in Kentucky, is also acting rationally in trying to keep up with the Cruzes. FROM TH SSOCITD PRSS We re not here to feed the attackers with pastries but to finish and punish them. Police Inspector General David Kimaiyo in a post on Twitter as Kenyan security forces battled al-qaida-linked terrorists in an upscale mall for a third day in what they said was a final push to rescue the last few hostages in a siege that has left at least 62 people dead. Chicago Police detectives continue to work tirelessly to solve this case and hold the criminals who committed this senseless act of violence last Thursday night responsible for their actions. Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy in a statement after two men were charged in connection with a shooting that injured 13 people, including a 3-year-old boy. Joseph Barani Sheridan McConnell has been a proud internationalist and hawk throughout his career, but after Cruz and fellow wacko-bird Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) opposed military action in Syria and McConnell s primary opponent took the same position, poor McConnell broke with other Republican leaders and declared that he, too, opposed military action. If McConnell and the other frightened Republicans are to be faulted, it s for putting their own political survival above all else and doing things they know are dumb. For example, Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.), one of the last moderates, told Wolf Blitzer that the defund Obamacare effort makes no sense at all and that Cruz is carrying out a fraud. He then voted for the very effort he had called a kamikaze mission and likened to Gallipoli. One of the most honest assessments of the Republican position came from Rep. Thomas Massie (Ky.), who explained last week why he favored the shutdown showdown: ll that really matters is what my district wants. nd my district is overwhelmingly in favor of my position. n enlightened officeholder might decide that other things matter, too: his oath to the Constitution, the national interest and his obligation to lead people and not just reflexively to follow public opinion. His constituents may not be aware of the hit the economy takes from a government shutdown and a default but Massie should. Massie s position is shortsighted but it is rational. Until Republicans can fix their truly insane primary system, it may be the only logical response.

Public Notices TUSDY, SPTMBR 24, 2013 www.thesheridanpress.com TH SHRIDN PRSS 7 WHY PUBLIC NOTICS R IMPORTNT Public notices allow citizens to monitor their government and make sure that it is working in their best interest. Independent newspapers assist in this cause by carrying out their partnership with the people s right to know through public notices. By offering an independent and archived record of public notices, newspapers foster a more trusting relationship between government and its citizens. Newspapers have the experience and expertise in publishing public notices and have done so since the Revolutionary War. Today, they remain an established, trustworthy and neutral source that ably transfers information between government and the people. Public notices are the lasting record of how the public s resources are used and are presented in the most efficient and effective means possible. GLOSSRY OF TRMS Default: Failure to fulfill an obligation, especially the obligation to make payments when due to a lender. ncumbrance: right attached to the property of another that may lessen its value, such as a lien, mortgage, or easement. Foreclosure: The legal process of terminating an owner s interest in property, usually as the result of a default under a mortgage. Foreclosure may be accomplished by order of a court or by the statutory process known as foreclosure by advertisement (also known as a power of sale foreclosure). Lien: legal claim asserted against the property of another, usually as security for a debt or obligation. Mortgage: lien granted by the owner of property to provide security for a debt or obligation. Power of Sale: clause commonly written into a mortgage authorizing the mortgagee to advertise and sell the property in the event of default. The process is governed by statute, but is not supervised by any court. Probate: The court procedure in which a decedent s liabilities are settled and her assets are distributed to her heirs. Public Notice: Notice given to the public or persons affected regarding certain types of legal proceedings, usually by publishing in a newspaper of general circulation.

8 TH SHRIDN PRSS www.thesheridanpress.com TUSDY, SPTMBR 24, 2013 TODY IN HISTORY FROM TH SHRIDN PRSS 1988 The Sheridan Broncs ran short of the magic that had carried them to two straight wins, as Casper s Kelly Walsh rode a fast start to a 25-22 win last night at Central Field. Sheridan had won in dramatic fashion in their two previous games, but last night the Broncs slow start proved deadly. 2003 Councilman Dirk Sanderson was outraged with action taken Tuesday by the Sheridan City Council concerning decorative metal benches and trash receptacles for Main Street. The Council voted 5-1 to award a 49,788 contract to a Kunkirk, Md., company for the items without taking further public comment, as requested by Sanderson. 2008 Volunteers of merica Wyoming and Montana announced Tuesday it received 636,637 in federal funds to construct a 10-bed transitional living facility in Sheridan and purchase a van to serve Wyoming veterans. 2012 With 300,000 in Wyoming Business Council funding securely in place, the Sheridan Health Center formerly known as the Free Clinic will soon have a new home. TH SSOCITD PRSS Today s Highlight in History: On Sept. 24, 1976, former hostage Patricia Hearst was sentenced to seven years in prison for her part in a 1974 bank robbery in San Francisco carried out by the Symbionese Liberation rmy. Hearst was released after 22 months after receiving clemency from President Jimmy Carter. On this date: In 1789, Congress passed a Judiciary ct, which provided for an attorney general and a Supreme Court. In 1869, thousands of businessmen were ruined in a Wall Street panic known as Black Friday after financiers Jay Gould and James Fisk attempted to corner the gold market. In 1929, Lt. James H. Doolittle guided a Consolidated NY-2 Biplane over Mitchel Field in New York in the first all-instrument flight. In 1948, Mildred Gillars, accused of being Nazi wartime radio propagandist xis Sally, pleaded not guilty in Washington, D.C., to charges of treason. Gillars, later convicted, ended up serving 12 years in prison. In 1955, President Dwight D. isenhower suffered a heart attack while on vacation in Denver. In 1961, Walt Disney s Wonderful World of Color premiered on NBC. In 1963, the U.S. Senate ratified a treaty with Britain and the Soviet Union limiting nuclear testing. In 1969, the trial of the Chicago ight (later seven) began. Five of the defendants were later convicted of crossing state lines to incite riots at the 1968 Democratic National Convention, but the convictions were ultimately overturned. In 1991, kidnappers in Lebanon freed British hostage Jack Mann after holding him captive for more than two years. Children s author Theodor Seuss Geisel, better known as Dr. Seuss, died in La Jolla, Calif., at age 87. In 2001, President George W. Bush ordered a freeze on the assets of 27 people and organizations with suspected links to terrorism, including Islamic militant Osama bin Laden, and urged other nations to do likewise. Ten years ago: fter four turbulent months, three special legislative sessions and two Democratic walkouts, both houses of the Republican-controlled Texas Legislature adopted redistricting plans favoring the GOP. The top candidates vying to replace California Governor Gray Davis joined in a lively debate. Five years ago: Officials reopened Galveston, Texas, to residents who were warned about Hurricane Ike s debris and disruption of utilities. Japanese lawmakers elected Taro so, leader of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party, prime minister. One year ago: President Barack Obama told the BC talk show The View that the deadly attack earlier in the month on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, was not the result of mob violence; he said there s no doubt that the assault wasn t spontaneous. Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney accused Obama of minimizing the Benghazi attack as a mere bump in the road. Provocative ads began appearing in New York City subways, equating Muslim radicals with savages. Today s Birthdays: ctor-singer Herb Jeffries is 102. ctress Sheila MacRae is 92.

Biden in Colorado Review: New Surface tablets make typing easy views flood devastation DNVR (P) Vice President Joe Biden is in Colorado for a helicopter tour of flood damage and to survey recovery efforts. Biden arrived at Buckley ir Force Base and boarded an rmy Blackhawk helicopter for Monday s tour. His helicopter flew over floodaffected areas in Broomfield, Boulder, stes Park, Loveland and Greeley before landing in Greeley, where Biden took a motorcade for a briefing by the Federal mergency Management gency. t times it was difficult to see specific flood damage from the air, with the exception of roads wiped out by the flooding. Creeks and rivers were still very swollen along Front Range canyons. Some roads were buried beneath mud. rea reservoirs were full, brimming with brown-colored water. Biden arrived at a Federal mergency Management Center in Greeley and was given a tour of the facility by FM s administrator, Craig Fugate. Biden was accompanied by members of Colorado s congressional delegation, including Sen. Michael Bennet and Reps. Mike Coffman and Cory Gardner. Looking at a map of the devastation, Biden said, I tell you what, man, the water is powerful. He talked about the damage he saw from the air on his way to Greeley. It s amazing what it does, he said, again referring to the water. Biden greeted workers at a FM disaster center in the same facility, shaking hands, thanking them for their work and asking them how they were doing. You guys are doing a heck of a job, man, he said. Biden and Fugate said FM has improved since Hurricane Katrina. Four or five years ago, or actually a little bit longer, I was down in the Gulf, and I said FM, and ducked, Biden joked. In Greeley, Biden insisted the threat of a government shutdown over the budget won t affect federal aid or recovery efforts. There s a reason to be scared but not in terms of disaster relief, Biden said. Biden promised that government help would not go away when the news camera did. I promise you, there will be help. It may take some time in some of your cases, Biden said. Biden said the 35 million that the federal government has already given the state for road repairs is obviously not going to be enough. nd he said it might cost more than anticipated to fix Colorado roads. He praised the FM personnel who were on the ground, saying the response has changed from five or six years ago though he did not specifically mention Katrina. NW YORK (P) Is Microsoft s Surface a tablet or a laptop? I m not quite sure, but it is a lot easier to type on than an ipad. The software company unveiled updates to its Surface tablet computers Monday at an event in New York, where I had a short amount of time to try them out. It almost seems unfair to categorize the new Surface 2 and Surface Pro 2 as tablets. lthough they have touchscreen keyboards like regular tablets, they work best when attached to an optional cover with a keyboard on the inside. The better one I tried was the Type Cover 2. In addition to coming in four fun colors pink, purple, blue and black that cover has backlighting, silent keys and a typing feel similar to that of a laptop keyboard. t 130, it is just 10 more than a Touch Cover 2, which doesn t have movable keys like real keyboards. The slick wireless mouse designed for the tablets is helpful, too, as is the docking station created to go with the Pro version of Surface. The result is something that looks more like a laptop than an ipad or ndroid tablet. nd that s what Microsoft wants, calling its tablets the most productive on the market. The Surface 2 model even comes with a version of Microsoft Office, including the Outlook email and calendar program for the first time. The Surface 2 starts at 449 and runs a lightweight version of Windows called RT, meaning it works only with apps designed specifically for it. The Surface Pro 2 starts at 899 and runs a full version of Windows, so it works with programs designed for traditional desktops and laptops. Both come with 200 gigabytes of online storage through Microsoft s SkyDrive for two years. With the Surface, Microsoft is trying to create a seamless transition between home, work and the field. Microsoft doesn t want this device to just replace your tablet and laptop, but your office PC as well. It s a great idea, and I ll be interested to see if it can actually work in practicality. Like a laptop, both the Surface 2 and the Surface Pro 2 balanced well and didn t slide around on my lap when attached to keyboards. I felt very comfortable typing and had a clear view of the screen. setup like this would be very helpful for all those events I ve had to cover, including Monday s, where I wasn t able to sit at a table and had to balance my tablet or laptop on my lap while I typed. For the new versions, Microsoft improved the built-in kickstand used to hold the tablet up like a laptop screen. It is sturdier and works in two positions, one for sitting on your lap and another for placing on a table. The kickstand on older Surfaces had just one position, for the table. My only complaint is that the keyboard was just a little bit too big for my lap and didn t have quiet enough space to lay flat. But at 5 foot, 2 inches, I m small. If you re taller, you shouldn t have a problem. lthough the tablets are focused on productivity, they also have some fun elements. Besides the usual games and apps available in Microsoft s app store, the Surface Pro 2 can be used to play PC and Xbox games such as the popular World of Warcraft and Halo series. lthough you don t quite get the same visual experience as you do with a big screen, gamers will like portability. It s a big step up from playing ngry Birds or Fruit Ninja. (Yes, those games are available in Microsoft s app store, too.) Both Surface models felt a little bulky and heavy to me. That said, the Surface 2 weighs about the same as the latest version of the full-size ipad at about 1.5 pounds, while the Surface Pro 2 weighs in at 2 pounds. t the same time, the Surface tablets feel a little more rugged than an ipad. Microsoft touts them as nearly indestructible, pointing to their heavy-duty glass and magnesium-alloy casing.

10 TH SHRIDN PRSS www.thesheridanpress.com TUSDY, SPTMBR 24, 2013 4 men charged in Chicago shooting that injured 13 CHICGO (P) Prosecutors have charged a man who they believe opened fire with an assault-style rifle in a crowded Chicago park, injuring 13 people including a 3-year-old boy. Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy says Tabari Young was charged with attempted murder and aggravated battery in Thursday night s shooting at Cornell Square Park on the southwest side. McCarthy said Tuesday that three other men who were also involved in the attack faces the same charges. They are Bryon Champ, Kewane Gatewood and Brad Jett. The shooting injured 3-year-old Deonta Howard, who was shot in the face. Mary Pickford film found in NH barn KN, N.H. (P) Carpenter Peter Massie has come across some interesting finds over the years antique bottles, old newspapers stuffed in walls. But his biggest discovery of all is the only known copy of a 1911 Mary Pickford movie that marked a turning point in the silent film star s career. The Library of Congress is funding a project to restore the film, titled Their First Misunderstanding, and it will be shown next month at Keene State College, where a retired professor has overseen the restoration. The film is the first for which Pickford was given credit in the advertising materials. Before that, movie studios didn t want actors to become household names because they d demand more money, said Pickford scholar Christel Schmidt, editor of Mary Pickford: Queen of the Movies. Massie, who discovered the film along with six other vintage reels in a New Hampshire barn he was tearing down in 2006, is looking forward to seeing it. This is the coolest thing I ve ever found on any job, he said. It s pretty fantastic, that s what I think. They were seconds away from going into a Dumpster. The property where Massie found the films apparently used to be a summer camp for boys, and the movies were probably shown to entertain the campers, said Larry Benaquist, who founded the film program at Keene State. Massie donated the films to the college, and Benaquist led the effort to identify and restore them. Pickford, known as merica s Sweetheart, was one of Hollywood s earliest stars. She was a cofounder of the United rtists film studio and helped establish the cademy of Motion Picture rts and Sciences. She retired from acting in 1933 and died in 1979. The 10-minute comedydrama stars Pickford and her first husband, Owen Moore, as newlyweds having their first argument. The first minute or so was destroyed, but the rest was in remarkably good condition, Benaquist said. He quickly determined that one of the reels was a lost 1913 silent film about braham Lincoln. But it took longer to identify the Pickford film because the 35 mm celluloid had stuck to itself. Once a lab was able to separate the layers, Benaquist reached out to Schmidt. I was really stunned, because a lot of those early films, you just figure they re gone, Schmidt said Monday. For that one to turn up was really exciting. Pickford had been known only as Little Mary, The Girl with the Curls and The Biograph girl, after her former studio, but that changed after Their First Misunderstanding, Benaquist said. Now she was an actor with clout, and I think she used that to great advantage, he said.

BUSINSS TUSDY, SPTMBR 24, 2013 www.thesheridanpress.com TH SHRIDN PRSS B1 Biotech conference wraps up at Sheridan College merging issues in Recruitment genetic engineering key part of BY TRC DVIS TH SHRIDN PRSS event SHRIDN Last week's Biotech Conference at Sheridan College brought in world-renowned experts in the area of biological law and policy to provide an overview of emerging issues in genetic engineering. Dr. Harvey Blackburn, coordinator of the National nimal Germplasm Program for the Department of griculture, introduced concepts from Nagoya Protocol of the international Convention on Biological Diversity to a small audience of scientists and entrepreneurs. The protocol, which will be accepted by many U.S. trading partners, establishes guidelines for developers who trade, and possibly modify, genetic information. Blackburn said the protocol sets up a code of ethics for genetic business opportunities. "There is a perception by some countries that the developed world uses genetic resources without giving out a fair share of revenue," Blackburn explained. The Nagoya Protocol, named after the Japanese city where the guidelines were established for world trade, calls for complete disclosure of intended uses of genetic information, like plants or livestock, before the resources leave its country of origin. S ISSUS, PG B2 Counseling via video teleconference BY TRC DVIS TH SHRIDN PRSS SHRIDN The word "biotechnology" often conjures up images of science fiction novels, or at least mysterious genetically modified pets and plants to many non-scientists. However, the word can also apply to the idea of using technology to facilitate established procedures and treatments. Case in point: psychological counseling via video teleconference. Dr. Phil Hirsch has practiced psychology for more than 30 years and now serves as Chief Clinical Officer for HealthLinkNow, a company that specializes in offering online health care technology services. For Hirsch, biotechnology simply means using video teleconferencing to provide counseling to patients who could be hundreds of miles away. Locally, the Healthy Lifestyle Clinic in Sheridan is the only venue to offer psychological therapy via Web conference. Family Nurse Practitioner Brenda Mosher said people are usually slow to accept the idea of Web-based counseling. Upon initial consideration, the idea of contacting a professional counselor via Skype or FaceTime might seem like another impersonal substitute for actual human-to-human interaction. "We call it the 'You've got to be kidding,' phenomenon when we begin talking to people about delivering any behavioral health service whether it's psychiatry, pharmacology, or whether its counseling or psychotherapy," Hirsch said. However, he said, that doesn't last long before the real benefits become apparent. S VIDO, PG B2 BY TRC DVIS TH SHRIDN PRSS SHRIDN Last week, Sheridan hosted a small, diverse group of scientists, entrepreneurs and policy makers who discussed a range of topics related to biotechnology. n initiative of Forward Sheridan, the annual Biotech Conference is targeted to bring fresh faces to town and provide a unique opportunity for intellectual conversations between experts of different disciplines, but also to lay the groundwork for business recruitment. "The reason we pull (bioscience experts) into these kinds of conferences is so our community can explore the possibility of diversifying our economy and attracting those industries to Sheridan," said my rickson, dean of science, math, agriculture and culinary arts at Sheridan College. "That's our not-really-secret goal here." conomist with the University of Wyoming, Dr. nne lexander, explained that Wyoming's fossil fuel economy can serve as both an asset and a liability. She said the main cornerstones of Wyoming's economy are agriculture, tourism and energy. "It would be good to not have all the burden on economic development on just a couple of industries' shoulders," she said, indicating a safer strategic bet for the state involves moving away from a heavy focus on just a few sectors of the economy and finding other ways to take advantage of Wyoming's other inherent resources. That's where biosciences come in. lexander said traditionally, Wyoming's strong university presence in every county coupled with available land and human capitol have generated success where biotech-related companies have taken off. prime example, she explained, is the utilization of "Roundup Ready" sugar beets, which have proven to be a profitable endeavor for farmers in the state. Currently, bioscientists with the UW extension office in Sheridan are working on a genetically modified grape that can withstand Wyoming's alkaline soil and cold weather. Plans are the new plant could be used for land reclamation. lexander said biosciences in the state are struggling because many young career seekers choose other avenues. "The constant struggle we're always having in Wyoming is kids can graduate from high school, go out and work in an oil field and make a lot of money, but then they don't have an education once that's over," lexander said. "That's a very high risk occupation. If they get hurt, they can't make money anymore." lexander said biological science workers are sorely needed for economic diversity within the state, and potential earnings of bioscience technicians compete with traditional jobs in the energy industry, which contributes 5.3 billion per year to the state's economy in terms of wages. "The average wage of a person in biosciences in Wyoming is almost the same as a roughneck, which is good," she said. "t the very least, we want them to think of being scientifically literate as a good thing and we want them to think about bioscience as an alternative, maybe as fallback." lexander said no industry is likely to rival oil and natural gas as revenue generators for the state.

Main St. Landon s offers free workshops ISSUS: Constraints, protocols hampering progress FROM B2 From there, provisions for benefit sharing extend into infinite future generations. While approximately 20 countries have accepted the protocol, the United States has not. Blackburn said natural variations in expression of genes, called genetic drift, frequently cause a sample population to yield a markedly different species within relatively few generations. He said the Nagoya Protocol provides for royalty payments back to a host country even when significant, planned scientific investment has created an essentially different life form than what was initially taken. "The issue we have with all this is these policy initiatives are so broad and they have not considered many types of specifics in their formulation," Blackburn said. Blackburn said the protocol could cause increased transaction costs and a reduction in the flow of genetic resources between countries. Dr. ric Welch, director of science technology and environmental policy at the University of Chicago, said the potential chilling effect on genetic research implemented by the protocol is an obstacle to genetic innovation. "What you need are 'weak ties,'" he said. "People with unusual sources, unusual data, different material, stuff that isn't in your close, trusted tie network." "These constraints are affecting the strategy of collaboration of our scientists," Welsh said, who added most sharing of genetic data happens via informal means within the U.S. The sharing and discussion of global policies was hosted at Sheridan College in an initiative by Forward Sheridan to raise awareness about what Sheridan has to offer biotechnology-based businesses looking to relocate. VIDO: xpanding the reach of help to rural areas FROM B1 "What we tend to see experientially is even people who are a little reluctant or a little bit skeptical, that you can establish the rapport necessary. That reluctance tends to go away within the first 30 or 45 minutes of the initial interview," Hirsch said. He added that more than 450 studies published in scientific journals attests to the efficacy of telemedicine for a psychology practice. Ultimately, the use of Internet conferencing puts rural clients within reach of professionals who can give them the help they need. "For people in communities like Sheridan, where there's a less than full supply of mental health professionals, where somebody might have to travel and hour or two or three hours to see a psychiatrist in person, their satisfaction with the telepsychiatry modality is higher because they avoid the travel strain." Mosher added that using video conferencing may be the more attractive choice for a patient looking for privacy in a small town. "Sometimes, people won't go to counseling services because they know the counselor," she said."the may be on the same golf team or something and prefer not to go to someone they know socially. This allows the option of a little more anonymity. Hirsch was one of the speakers at the Forward Sheridan Biotech Conference last week.

Preparing for a busy season CONFRNC: Growth FROM B1 But that doesn't mean there's not room for other industries in the economy. "Oil and natural gas, while they have contributed and will continue to contribute greatly to our economic structure, our tax base, our economy, they are more volatile because they are export driven. Biosciences have some international aspects to it, but it's not necessarily as volatile," she said. lexander pointed out that while Wyoming was only mildly affected by the Great Recession when compared to other states, fields related to biosciences within the state showed steady growth despite an unstable economy.

Taxidermist nayat Rahimi places a glass eye in a mannequin for a client s trophy whitetail buck at Rahimi s Taxidermy in Ranchester Health care law reuniting Obama, Bill Clinton Painting NW YORK (P) Health care is reuniting President Barack Obama and former President Bill Clinton. The two are set to appear together Tuesday to discuss Obama s health care law at a session sponsored by the Clinton Global Initiative, the former president s foundation. The joint appearance comes exactly one week before people who don t have health insurance can start signing up on Oct. 1 for coverage plans through new insurance marketplaces. It also comes as the Obama administration and those who stand to benefit from the law s success, such as insurance companies, launch a campaign to inform consumers about their options under the law. The ffordable Care ct requires everyone to carry health insurance or face penalties. Obama has said the goal is to make health care more affordable while extending coverage to millions of people who don t have it. Clinton s appearance will be his second in recent weeks to help promote the 3-year-old law, which has been contentious from the start. In a speech earlier this month in his home state of rkansas, the former president explained how the law works and argued that it makes the country stronger. He urged opponents to quit trying to undo the law and to work instead to improve it. The law does give us the best chance we have to achieve nearly universal coverage, provide higher quality health care and lower the rate of cost increases, which we have got to do in a competitive global economy, said Clinton, who failed to expand access to health care during his eight years as president. The Republican-controlled House has voted more than three dozen times to repeal, delay or eliminate funding for the law, arguing that it hurts the economy by imposing too many requirements on businesses and individuals, and driving health care costs higher as a result. None of the bills have advanced in the Democratic-controlled Senate. Obama highlights popular, consumer-friendly provisions of the law, such as requiring that mammograms and other health screenings be conducted free of charge, and allowing parents to keep children on their plans until they turn 26. He also has highlighted requirements for insurers to spend a certain percentage of premiums on health care. But large numbers of mericans say they don t understand the law. n NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll conducted earlier this month found just 30 percent of people saying they understand the law and how it will affect them. Sixty-nine percent said they understand the law only some or not very well. The health care law also is now embroiled in a standoff between the White House and Congress over federal spending for the budget year that also begins Oct. 1. House-passed bill would continue funding the government while eliminating money to implement the health care law. The Senate is expected to pass and return to the House just the portion of the bill that would fund the government another year. The hourlong conversation between Obama and Clinton is taking place around the 20th anniversary of Clinton s address to a joint session of Congress in 1993 calling for an overhaul of the health care system. The presidential pair is to be introduced by Clinton s wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who tackled the health care issue unsuccessfully during her time as first lady. The event during Clinton s annual conference also begins a monthslong education effort by the administration that will employ Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, first lady Michelle Obama and several Cabinet secretaries to help inform consumers of the health care options they can begin signing up for between October and March 2014. workshop FROM STFF RPORTS SHRIDN Davis Gallery is hosting a Bubbles and Brushes painting workshop Thursday at 6:30 p.m. at the gallery.

JV football stays unbeaten FROM STFF RPORTS Todd Helton enters final homestand; Red Sox in Denver DNVR (P) very time Todd Helton stepped to the plate, the ovation from 43,736 fans got louder. With Helton's time as a Colorado Rockies nearing its the end, the Coors Field faithful showed their appreciation in his last Sunday home finale. Helton had three hits and drove in four runs in a 13-9 loss to the rizona Diamondbacks. He raised his RBIs total to 1,402. "I didn't realize I was coming up on 1,400 RBIs. That was a surprise to me," said Helton, who announced last week he will retire at the end of the season. "It's just one of those days at the plate. I struck out in my first at-bat and thought I should have taken this day game off. The line is in sight so it was good to go out and play hard." He played hard to the end, delivering a two-run single in the ninth before Colorado's rally fell short. The teams combined for 38 hits in a game that took 3 hours, 45 minutes. Helton had two doubles to push his career total to 591. He also scored his 1,400th run and became the 46th player in major league history to have 1,400 runs and RBIs. His three hits gave him 2,514 for his career and tied him with Buddy Bell for 95th. "It was a great day. Good crowd got to see Todd do things he's been doing for 17 seasons," manager Walt Weiss said. "It's great to see him go out with a bang, he's playing really well and is swinging the bat really well on this homestand. I'm happy for him, I'm happy for our fans getting to see that." Helton has two home games left this week before Colorado wraps up the season with a three-game series at the Los ngeles Dodgers. He heard the crowd before each at-bat, and the fans gave him a final standing ovation when he was forced out at second on Nolan renado's ninth-inning grounder. "It's great. It's cool walking to the plate," Helton said. Helton said he will not consider sitting out the final three games of the season and end his career at Coors Field. "This is my job and my job wouldn't be complete," he said. "There will be some finality to the whole things when I'm done here. I signed up for 162 games, and that's what I'll go for." SHRIDN The Sheridan Broncs junior varsity football team stayed unbeaten with a 36-2 win Saturday in Cody.

Jess dens handled a botched snap on the PT and threw a two-point conversion to Zach Campbell. In the second half, Cody got on the board after a high snap sailed over quarterback Campbell's head. Running back Saheed Kahn tried to bring the ball out of the end zone but was tackled for a safety. Jess dens recovered a blocked punt in the third quarter to make the score 29-2. Sophomore wideout Tom Fenn ran around left end for a 12-yard score in the fourth quarter. The Bronc junior varsity (4-0) plays Buffalo Saturday at Scott Field. Broncos roll Raiders DNVR (P) Two dropped passes. Two fumbles. Three field goals. OK, so Peyton Manning and the Broncos offense weren t exactly flawless. Hard to imagine what that scoreboard might look like if they ever do play the perfect game. ven with a mistake here and there, Manning finished 32 for 37 for 374 yards and three scores to lead Denver to a 37-21 runaway over the Oakland Raiders on Monday night. Manning s 12 touchdown passes this season are one more than Tom Brady s old record for the first three games, set in 2011. Manning still has yet to throw an interception, which matches a record held by Michael Vick, who also threw 12 touchdowns before his first pick in 2010. ric Decker, Julius Thomas and Wes Welker each caught a touchdown. No Oakland defender was within three steps of them when they made those catches. The Raiders (1-2) made their share of big plays, including a 73-yard touchdown pass from Terrelle Pryor to Denarius Moore that briefly cut their deficit to 17-7. But on the next play from scrimmage, Manning hit Decker for 61 yards. Three plays later, the Broncos (3-0) were ahead by 17 again and the rout was on. Denver has scored 127 points this season. Only the 1968 Dallas Cowboys scored more (132) over their first three games. Here are five things we learned from Denver s win over Oakland: 1. MNNING S MSTR: Nobody can break down an NFL defense better than No. 18. His 86.5 percent completion rate was a career high in any game in which he s thrown at least 20 passes. Hard to keep up this pace? Probably so, but Manning has shredded the first three defenses he has seen so far. Next up, the Philadelphia agles, who have given up an average of 340 yards passing through three games. 2. STILL FLWS: Singling out the mistakes of an offense that puts up 37 points feels a little like nitpicking, but rookie Montee Ball s second lost fumble of the season won t sit well with a quarterback who demands perfection. 3. PSSING PRYOR: Pryor showed he can throw a little bit, too, finishing 19 of 28 for 281 yards and one touchdown. Pryor, who led all quarterbacks in rushing with 162 yards coming into the week, added another 36 to that total before leaving in the fourth quarter with a concussion. 4. DNVR D: The Broncos will be a much better defense when Von Miller and Champ Bailey return. It wasn t so much that the Broncos gave up 281 yards to the inexperienced Pryor, who spent the entire evening playing catch-up. It was that, at times, the Denver D looked bad doing it. Most notably on Pryor s 73-yard touchdown pass to Denarius Moore that came after defensive backs Duke Ihenacho and Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie overcommitted and let Moore slip behind them. 5. POCKT PROTCTOR: Chris Clark needs more work before he ll be anywhere near the same category as Ryan Clady as Manning s blindside protector. Subbing for the injured Clady at left tackle, Clark let Lamarr Houston slip through for a sack and strip of Manning, which short-circuited a Broncos drive at the Oakland 13. Clark also got hit with an early holding call.

Wyatt Main shot a 85-94 179, Wyatt Schumacher 92-93 185, Casey Caywood 99-95 194, Brock Donston a 145-101 246 and Riley Jones 150-138 288. Lady agle Kylee Knobloch shot 108-137 245. Main finished eighth and Schumacher finished 10th while the team placed sixth. Head coach Pete Kilbride said the tournament was a good learning experience leading up to state this week in Hulett. "For our younger kids, it's a chance to see what it's like to play back-to-back, and try to find consistency," Kilbride said. "The scores varied wildly from day one to day two; some for the better and some for the worse. It comes with time and experience, and that's what these tournaments are all about." He said that boys will compete this week four the fifth spot on the team they will take to Devil's Tower Golf Club to face 1 and 2 golfers from around the state. Wooden racket tournament winners, from left, Foy Hartman, Mike Brennan, Rick Schmierer and Lisa Kutz. COURTSY PHOTO Sports briefs First Wooden Racket tennis tournament a success SHRIDN The Sheridan Community Tennis ssociation and the Powder Horn held the first ever Wooden Racket Tennis Tournament over the weekend. The all-doubles event paired players with B players with ages ranging from 11- to 80-years-old. "Vintage dress was encouraged with those who donned old clothing being awarded a free mulligan per match," William Brooks of the SCT said. Matches featured eight-game pro-sets with round robin format. Winners of the two-day tournament were Rick Schmierer/Lisa Kutz with 56 total games; runnersup were Mike Brennan/Foy Hartman with 55 games. Third place winners were rlie Johnson/Dick Newman with 54 games. "There were 16 participants for this event, all brave enough to play with an old wooden racket," Brooks said. "veryone had a great time and will look forward to next year." 7th-grade football splits with Twin Spruce Smith named Mountain West offensive player of the week LRMI (P) Wyoming junior quarterback Brett Smith has been named the Mountain West Conference offensive player of the week. Smith produced the greatest day ever by a Wyoming quarterback, accounting for a school record 511 yards of total offense against ir Force last Saturday. He broke the previous Wyoming single-game record of 482 yards set by Josh Wallwork in 1996 versus Idaho. Smith s 511 yards of total offense is the second best single-game total in the FBS this year. It is second only to Johnny Manziel s 562 yards versus labama. gainst ir Force, Smith completed 35 of 41 passes for 373 yards and four touchdowns. He Smith also rushed for 138 yards and one TD. Sputtering Vikes hope losing stops in London DN PRIRI, Minn. (P) The Minnesota Vikings are taking some extra baggage to London. They don t have any wins to pack with them, though they re just saddled with questions after their third straight loss to open the season. Now they get a home game overseas. Minnesota is considered the host team at Wembley Stadium this Sunday against Pittsburgh for the NFL s annual international showcase, requiring them to spend the balance of the week in Britain. There will be plenty of time for bonding, sightseeing and interacting with curious locals, and given the angst in Minnesota over their September performance so far this is as good of an opportunity to leave town as any. Getting away and seeing things in a bigger picture over there maybe will help, linebacker Chad Greenway said. The Steelers are one of the other five 0-3 teams in the league, so the Vikings will face another vulnerable opponent. That s what Cleveland was supposed to be, however, and the Browns left the Metrodome with a 31-27 victory on Sunday. I feel like we have a mature bunch here, running back drian Peterson said. We ve just got to stay confident. Stay confident and keep swinging, but swinging a lot better. I feel like we will approach it with that mindset and attitude, and we ll be OK. Since his 78-yard touchdown run on Minnesota s first snap, Peterson is averaging only 2.99 yards per attempt. The offensive line has had trouble protecting quarterback Christian Ponder, too; six of their 10 sacks allowed this year came by the Browns. Pro Bowl fullback Jerome Felton has returned to the active roster this week following his three-game suspension, so his presence ought to help. To make room for him, the Vikings placed rookie fullback Zach Line on injured reserve. Obviously it s not just me coming back that s going to make the running game do what it needs to do, but I definitely think I can help and contribute, Felton said. We don t have time for it to take a few weeks. I ve got to hit the ground running. The Vikings had three turnovers against the Browns to go with six threeand-out possessions. The defense has eight takeaways over the last two games, a wasted accomplishment. Ponder isn t the only problem, but he has seven of the team s 10 giveaways and a persistence of off-target throws on critical plays. You can t turn the ball over at the rate that we re turning it over and expect to win, unless I ve said this before you re so superior to your opponents, coach Leslie Frazier said. nd we re not. There are plenty of issues on the other side of the ball, too, beginning with the quiet pass rush from a defensive line that s supposed to be one of the team s true strengths. The biggest concern this week, though, is depth at defensive back. Cornerbacks Chris Cook (groin) and.j. Jefferson (ankle) and safety Jamarca Sanford (hamstring) were scheduled for MRI tests Monday. Their injuries thinned out the secondary that s dearly missing cornerback ntoine Winfield, who was cut and later retired. Cook, the team s best player in pass coverage, has not been able to stay healthy since he was drafted in the second round in 2010. He s a guy we need on the field. He knows it. But if you re injured, you re injured. SHRIDN The seventh-grade football teams played Twin Spruce (Gillette) last week. The Sheridan Blue team defeated Twin Spruce Blue 40-0. Parker Christensen, Tristan Bower and Nate Roe all rushed for touchdowns. Cody Stults threw two touchdown passes one to Tobin Reynolds and another to Christensen. Bower hit four of five PTs. Coach Scott Stults said that the defense played well, with Daniel McMahan sacking the quarterback for a safety. Jaden Underwood and Beknazar likulov both blocked punts and Cody Stults had an interception. The Gold Team fell to Twin Spruce Gold 20-0, playing hard for four quarters, Stults said. Griz safety suspended for 1 game after arrest MISSOUL, Mont. (P) University of Montana free safety Matt Hermanson has been suspended for the Northern rizona game on Saturday after being arrested for criminal mischief. Hermanson, 21, of Sioux Falls, S.D., pleaded not guilty in Justice Court Monday to charges that he damaged road signs near Fort Missoula. He remains free on 500 bond. ttorney Paul Ryan said Hermanson also pleaded guilty to an earlier, unrelated speeding citation and paid a reduced fine of about 75. Matt feels terrible about this, Ryan said. We anticipate fixing the issue as far as any damages are concerned as quickly as we can and to come to a quick and speedy resolution to this case. Court records say the deputy who arrested Hermanson reported he was intoxicated, shirtless and thought he was in his home state of South Dakota. Hermanson told jail officers he had been out with friends, drank too much and somehow ended up alone and on foot, court records said. deputy saw someone throw a large, white object onto Old Fort Road at about 1:30 a.m. Sunday and contacted Hermanson, leading to his arrest. One sign was broken while a speed zone sign was folded. The deputy was able to bend the sign back to its correct position. The team announced Hermanson s suspension Monday afternoon, citing a violation of the student-athlete conduct code. The university statement also included an apology from Hermanson. I know it is a privilege to be a Grizzly student-athlete and that we are held to a high standard, the statement read. I am honored to be a student at the University of Montana. I am anxious to resolve this issue and move forward. Hermanson starts at free safety and is Montana s second-leading tackler. Driver dies after crash that killed Ohio football player CINCINNTI (P) n 18-year-old driver has died following the single-vehicle crash that killed one Cincinnati football player and injured two. University of Cincinnati Medical Center confirmed Tuesday that Sean VanDyne of Hamilton had died. uthorities say VanDyne was driving with three freshmen Cincinnati players returning from the Bearcats 14-0 win Saturday night at Miami University in Oxford, 25 miles north of Cincinnati. The crash killed offensive lineman Ben Flick of Hamilton and injured receivers Mark Barr of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and Javon Harrison of Dayton. They were redshirting and didn t dress for the game or travel with the team. VanDyne was a freshman at Miami. family statement released by the hospital says VanDyne and Flick had been best friends since second grade. The Bearcats have a bye week this week.

OZ & ROIZN Dr. Mehmet Oz and Dr. Michael Roizen MRY WORTH by Karen Moy and Joe Giella BORN LOSR by rt and Chip Sansom Did you ever think your dentist would go into manufacturing? Well about 10 percent of dental offices now have the latest in on-the-spot crown-manufacturing technology! This new type of digital dentistry is making it possible to get perfectly shaped porcelain crowns made and installed in your mouth in about an hour. No more "temporary" crowns or multiple office visits. nd they're not more expensive! How does it work? First, you have a digital scan made of your broken or misshaped tooth (the system can't scan below the gum line, so whileyou-wait implants are still in the future). Then the system feeds the data to an on-site CD/CM (computer-aided drafting/computer-aided manufacturing) system that mills the crown. fter a little prep work, it is ready for your dazzling smile. But this is new technology, and preliminary studies have shown that some of these machines make stronger and more fracture-resistant crowns than others. So here's our recommendation: Before you get your on-the-spot digital crown made, ask your dentist how many he's done, how the oldest one is doing today and what kind of problems he's run into. If he hasn't done many or can't discuss success and failure rates, hold off and go with the old tried-and-true method. ven though the process can be irritating, you know it's reliable -- and soon enough on-site digital dentistry will become a well-tested way to get a crown. We think that's enough to put a smile on anyone's face.

I have been working for the last five years and have saved enough to live comfortably on my own. Unfortunately, my parents have forbidden me to do it because they think I'm being manipulated into it by my boyfriend, that I just want to "do whatever I want" and be out until late (although I'm rarely up past 9 p.m. and they know it), and because I "can't stand them" anymore. I have no privacy! My mail is opened "mistakenly" and my calls are listened in on even when I politely -- and sometimes angrily -- ask them not to. They have even imposed a rule that I must show them my bank balance weekly. They have told me I will not leave the house without being married first. I would like to live on my own before I actually marry so I can experience what it's like. This is something I have always wanted to do. If I do move out, they say I'll "bring shame and embarrassment" to the family. There seems to be a double standard going on here because my older brother has his girlfriend sleep over. How can I accommodate my parents without being disowned? -- FLING HLPLSS IN ILLINOIS DR FLING HLP- LSS: Your parents have chosen to ignore that you are an adult, self-supporting and entitled to make your own choices. They may be wellmeaning, but they are extremely heavy-handed. Their hyper-vigilance -- opening your mail, eavesdropping on your phone calls and insisting on checking your bank balance weekly -- is over the top. They would like you to be "safely" married before you leave their protection. Is their problem that they disapprove of your boyfriend? If you get a place of your own, do you plan on moving him in? If that's not the case, there is no reason why your living independently might shame or embarrass them. Not knowing your parents, I can't judge whether their threat to disown you is serious or not. However, if it is, realize it's a form of blackmail, and you will have to decide which is more important -- your freedom or their support. DR BBY: "Lights Out in Federal Way, Wash."

B6 TH SHRIDN PRSS www.thesheridanpress.com TUSDY, SPTMBR 24, 2013 Man City voted team of week in P poll LONDON (P) Manchester City is first in this week s ssociated Press global soccer poll after beating city rival Manchester United 4-1, and Sergio guero s two goals earned him the top player vote. City received 157 points out of a possible 180 in the team vote to finish 20 points ahead of Napoli. guero received 131 votes, five more than Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo. Sergio guero got a goal and an assist against Viktoria Plzen in the Champions League and then scored a double in the derby game, Paris-based Irish soccer writer Mark Rodden said. Having netted the goal that won the league two years ago and the winner against United last season the rgentine can hardly be more popular with City fans. Napoli is second after opening its Champions League campaign with a 2-1 win over Borussia Dortmund before beating C Milan by the same score at the San Siro. Gonzalo Higuain, who scored Napoli s winner in the game against Milan, is fourth in the player rankings with 71 points, three ahead of Barcelona forward Lionel Messi. Rafael Benitez s side have won all of its five games so far this season and again impressed this week s P s panel of 18 voters. First, a convincing win over last season s Champions League finalists Borussia Dortmund and then a first away victory over C Milan since the days of Diego Maradona, Julian Bennetts of Hayters news agency said. There is a real sense of momentum around Rafa Benitez s side at present and they look genuine candidates for every competition this season. Mesut Ozil and aron Ramsey are once more recognized as the heartbeat behind rsenal s good run of form. The midfielders are sixth and seventh, respectively, in this week s rankings, falling from second and third place the previous week. Ramsey scored the opener in rsenal s 3-1 win against Stoke but Ozil received nine more votes (51) for an impressive display that included two assists. Ozil left his fingerprints all over rsenal s 3-1 win over Stoke City, said Tom Timmerman of the St. Louis Post, while Orfeo Gonzalez of l Mundo said: rsenal is different with Ozil in the team, a hors categorie player. While Ronaldo is in second place, his Real Madrid side was voted into sixth position in the team vote. Madrid is three points behind Barcelona. But Ronaldo has 58 points more than Messi, after the Portugal forward scored five goals in two games. Barcelona s Pedro is third in the player vote. Tied in 10th position are verton defender Leighton Baines and Napoli goalkeeper Pepe Reina, who both received 27 votes. Baines scored from two excellent free kicks in verton s 3-2 win against West Ham, while Reina became the first man to save a penalty from C Milan s Mario Balotelli, who had not missed in 21 previous spot kicks.

Phillip lder Dear Heloise: My sister-inlaw was BDRIDDN, and my brother-in-law had just retired and had lots to do around the house. very time he would go outside, she would call him. Sometimes he couldn't hear her, so he couldn't go out to the garage. We bought them a batterypowered doorbell and had him put the doorbell ringer on her headboard. One bell was in the back family room, and the other in the garage. When she needed him, she just pushed the doorbell ringer, and he could come running. It was such a blessing to both of them. -- Marianne D. in Kansas This is a good hint for anyone who is a nurse to someone who's sick at home. With cold and flu season coming up, I'd say it's time to buy a cheap doorbell! -- Heloise VINGR SPRY Dear Heloise: I love cleaning with vinegar, and I keep a spray bottle of one-third white vinegar and two-thirds water by my kitchen sink for cleaning raw vegetables. I even spray it on the outside of melons before slicing them. -- Cathie in marillo, Texas Cathie, vinegar is a good cleaner for many things. However, the Food and Drug dministration states that running water and a good rubbing are all that's required for cleaning fruits and vegetables. Your spray will kill some bacteria, but be sure to rinse all items well before serving. Vinegar is a must in every kitchen, which is why I wrote my pamphlet Heloise's Fantabulous Vinegar Hints and More! To receive a copy, send 5 and a long, selfaddressed, stamped (66 cents) envelope to: Heloise/Vinegar, P.O. Box 795001, San ntonio, TX 78279-5001. Vegetables wilted? Place them in the refrigerator in a mixture of 1 quart of cold water and 1 tablespoon of white vinegar. -- Heloise PRTTY POTTD PLNTS Dear Heloise: I lose plant markers or they blow away. I can't always tell the difference between the herbs just by looking. My daughter thought it'd be cute for all the pots to be the same, so we painted them with Omarr s Daily strological Forecast black chalkboard paint. We then used chalk to label each pot with the plant name and other important information. Luckily, you can't lose the marker if it IS the pot! -- Caroline D. in Iowa SY FIX Dear Heloise: I have French doors that separate my den from the rest of the house. The other day, I tried to close the doors to keep the dogs in the den for a while, but the doors wouldn't stay completely closed. I grabbed a rubber band and wrapped it around both doorknobs. This kept the doors closed tightly enough that the dogs were contained. -- K.. in Mississippi Glad it worked for you. Some dogs and many cats can figure out how to open and close doors, so keep an eye on them. - - Heloise RUBBR PLC MT Dear Heloise: Rubber shelf lining makes great place mats when cut into pieces. The jazzy designs give a splash to entertaining without much cost. They wash nicely, too! -- Bonnie M. in Indiana NOTHR TWO CHNCS FOR CON- TRCT SUCCSS lexandre Dumas, the father, not his son, said, "ll human wisdom is summed up in two words -- wait and hope." t the bridge table, one wishes that all wisdom isn't summed up in two words -- play and hope. Yes, you will often be hoping for the best, but ideally you find a 100 percent line of play or defense. In yesterday's deal, declarer had two chances to make his contract. Today's is similar. South is in six hearts. West leads the club queen. What are declarer's two chances? How should he play to combine them? North's two-no-trump response was the Jacoby Forcing Raise, guaranteeing at least four-card heart support and gamegoing values. South's threespade rebid indicated a singleton (or void) in that suit. Then, after two control-bids (cue-bids), North made a very aggressive jump to slam. If you bid the spots off the cards, you had better play them off, too -- and get lucky. South can see two possible losers: one diamond and one club. He has only 11 top tricks: one spade, six hearts, one diamond, two clubs and a spade ruff in South, the shorter trump hand. Declarer's first thought is probably that the diamond finesse needs to work. But he might also find clubs 3-3. nd that should be tried first. South takes the first trick, draws trumps, and plays two more rounds of clubs. Here, they divide evenly and declarer can claim, stating that he will discard one of dummy's diamonds on his last club. But if the clubs were not 3-3, the diamond finesse would still be available. www.thesheridanpress.com Jeraldine Saunders BIRTHDY GL: ctress Bridgette Wilson-Sampras was born in Gold Beach, Ore., on this date in 1973.
