The luau-themed Greene County MDA Lock-Up was held at Texas Roadhouse in Fairborn, with individuals representing numerous local businesses and public officials attempting to raise their “bail” to help the Muscular Distrophy Association reach their goal of $50,000. Participants from all over Greene County have been working on raising donations since January. Roughly 170 jailbirds raised a combined $35,000 prior to Wednesday’s event and had raised another $2,000 before noon by making phone calls from “jail.” “This is a very warm community,” said Laura Shepherd, MDA Executive Director. “You really get a feel for what people are like when you do this in different towns. The people in Greene County are so friendly and giving.” Participants included many Greene County public officials, workers from local municipalities, law enforcement officers, and other individuals from Fairborn, Yellow Springs, Beavercreek and Xenia. Among the Fairborn group were police Captain Terry Bennington; Kim Bigelow from Fairborn Primary School; Councilwoman Marilyn McCauley; and Mark Neuman, City of Fairborn IT Director. The two largest amounts were raised by Dave Judson of JJR Solutions in Beavercreek with $2,634 and Bill Isaacs of the Ohio State Fraternal Order of Eagles with $3,795 as of Tuesday. Isaacs’ goal is to raise $4,000 by the end of campaign. “This $50,000 is critical to our programs we have for our families,” Shepherd said. “Basically that money is already spent at beginning of the year.” Donations will go toward flu shots for the MDA See living history FAIRBORN — The Mercer-Smith Historical Park will host an open house and living-history demonstration on hearth cooking from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, March 17.

The 2012 Christmas in Action of Fairborn, Inc. work day is scheduled for May 5, with a rain date of May 12. Christmas in Action is a volunteer organization of Fairborn citizens dedicated to improving their city and neighborhoods. “We were very proud last year that the people really did pull together,” said Dan Kirkpatrick, a local volunteer and Fairborn councilman. “This was a catalyst for neighbors helping neighbors. Not a single person complained to us and dozens said ‘Count me in for next year.’” Last year, nearly 90 local volunteers from all walks of life worked on 14 Fairborn homes. “Most of these projects involved paint, we re-roofed a garage and did window seals,” Kirkpatrick said. “We also did a lot of caulking.

Herald photos by Amanda Crowe 4 By ASIA AIKINS Beavercreek Editor [email protected] BEAVERCREEK — Steve Austria made a stop at the Greene County Dailies newsroom yesterday to talk about his priorities during his final year representing the seventh Congressional district. Last year, Ohio Legislatures passed a revised district map that eliminated Austria’s seventh district and divided the area among three other districts. Austria announced soon after that he would not campaign for another term in the 2012 election. “One of my biggest concerns is that the redistricting gives us less represen- tation in the Dayton area and less representation for Wright-Patt,” he said. “Wright-Patt will go from three representative to one.” Representation at Wright-Patt, Austria said, is crucial right now because of cuts being made to Air Force bases nationwide. Running to maintain his seat in Congress would also require Austria to move his family to Columbus to be able to run in another district, a move he didn’t want to make. “Greene County is our home,” he said. Although he has decided not to run in the 2012 election, Austria plans to See AUSTRIA, Page 2A ➤ Gazette photo by Barb Slone Spring fast forward Wild flowers sprout up as warm temperatures moved through the area.

Yellow Springs, OH www.youngsdairy.com Find us on: LOCAL 2A Thursday, March 15, 2012 Fairborn Daily Herald Kroger offers special ‘stylish’ ID bracelets By ELIZABETH STUDEBAKER Feature Writer [email protected] XENIA — Kroger pharmacies have the answer to a critical issue for many children and adults diagnosed with a chronic medical condition. If someone has a true medical emergency and unable to communicate, medical ID jewelry communicates to emergency personnel. Emergency personnel are trained to look for it on your left arm. Wearing it can prevent potentially harmful medical mistakes from happening and assists prompt diagnosis of your condition. Kroger’s pharmacies nationwide, including those Xenia, Beavercreek, Bellbrook and Fairborn, can find a new and different accessory that also may be life-saving. They are “more stylish” medical ID bracelets and other medical jewelry that can be ordered on-line or by telephone. Until recently, lower-cost medical ID bracelets were available, but was unattractive, “clunky” and particularly unappealing to children and young adults. Medical ID Marketplace has introduced a series of bright, colorful rubber, mesh, crystal, Kroger pharmacies offer beads, rope, leather and other designs to expand choices avail- fancy ID bracelets, able. Other options are pendant Submitted photos. and “dog tag” jewelry. The jewelry can be customized at no additional charge with engraved information about the medical condition of the wearer. An additional option is TextID. The wearer can pay a small annual fee to have a complete medical profile stored in a secure online account. Each account has a PIN number that is engraved on the jewelry item, along with a phone number (51020) that can be accessed by a medical technician. Medications and numbers of emergency contacts can be included. For Beavercreek Kroger Marketplace Pharmacist Erin Hoy this story comes with personal experience. When a family member, diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease and went missing, it was a “terrifying, traumatic situation,” she said. Now, to prevent this from ever happening again, the elderly gentleman wears a medical ID bracelet with his name, diagnoses and contact information. When a 16-year-old youth collapsed in a Kroger store in another state, 9-1-1 was called by a salesperson. When emergency personnel arrived, because the young man was wearing the ID jewelry, the EMT quickly knew his condition (Type II diabetes), administered medication and his condition quickly stabilized. Greene County Kroger locations include: Beavercreek – 3165 Dayton-Xenia Road; Bellbrook – 6480 Wilmington Pike; Fairborn – 1161 E. Dayton-Yellow Springs Road; and Xenia – 1700 West Park Square.

Herald photo by Amanda Crowe Mike Green (left to right), Charles Russell and Marvin Shelton, all of U.S. Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine, get in the luau spirit. ➤ Cause continued from 1A families; MDA clinics in Cincinnati and West Chester; support groups; research; sturdy medical equipment for the MDA loan closet program and repairs up to $500 on that equipment; and summer camp at $800 per child. “It’s always good to do things like this,” said Marvin Shelton of the U.S. Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine, who convinced his colleagues, Mike Greene and Charles Russell to get locked up as well. “We’re here to help get MDA up to their goal.” Hans Marlette and Nancy Herbert from Day of Caring brought along their coworkers and friends to help bail them out Wednesday. Marlette has a personal connection to this event as he had Polio when he was a child. “Organizations like this are all about helping the community and sharing awareness with the community,” he said. ➤ “It’s that sense of service that led me to participate. And with my background, I know the importance of having a support network. That’s what this is all about.” “I recently became involved with several other charities, and this just hit my heart the right way,” Herbert added. Kelly Grody, representing Jeff Schmitt Auto Group in Fairborn, raised $250 before the event, and raised more over the phone by calling and sending text messages. She even won one of the many contests held throughout the day by raising another $200 for a gift card. “It’s all about giving back,” said Grody. “I have been blessed with healthy children and a great life. God has given me so much, I feel I have to give back when I can. And this is a cool, fun event. I’ll probably do it again next year.” The lock-up lasted from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. with jailbirds coming and going. Christmas continued from 1A through a couple cases because we had a lot of elderly with drafty houses. We focused on basic home repairs these residents can’t do on their own due to age or can’t afford.” In their second year, the group is offering free home repairs including interior and exterior painting, roof repair, deck repair, handicap ramp repair and installation, landscaping, screen doors and windows. The majority of the homeowners that participated last year were senior citizens, some of which were living in homes that were in need of repairs for safety reasons. “Especially in this economy, they are in situations where they are living on pensions, retirement or Social Security, so it’s paycheck to paycheck,” said Angie Botkin of the Fairborn Community Center. “They are not able to afford repair homes and a lot of the elderly are not able to get out and do these things themselves.” Christmas in Action is currently accepting applications from low income homeowners and senior citizens until April ➤ to bring jobs to the area through UAS (Unmanned Airial Systems — remote piloted planes) air space and test sites.

Each new arrival was placed behind bars and their mug shots were taken before they were treated to a free lunch. “This is our way of thanking the participants for what they’ve done and it gives them a chance to network with other people in their community,” Shepherd said. This is the third year this Texas Roadhouse location has hosted the MDA fundraising event. The restaurant donates all the food and drinks, while the servers and cooks volunteer their time to open up shop for this private party. “I think this has been the busiest year so far,” said manager Lance Walker. “We really enjoy it.

A FFOR DA BL E GLASS & MIRROR “Our name says it all” 7210 Chambersburg Rd., Huber Heights • 937-236-1481 Over the years, Austria and members of the Congressional Unmanned Systems Caucus and the Federal Aviation Administration have discussed potential plans to integrate the UAS and the National Airspace System. Recently, these efforts resulted in an amendment of FAA regulations to allow air space in six additional national locations to build and test the UAS. Currently, 22 sites are competing for FAA approval, including Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. “Bringing a test site to our area would open the door for more businesses and more jobs,” Austria said. “There are companies that have already said that they would move here if we are chosen as one of the six sites.” Members of the FAA have expressed safety concerns in these locations, especially in regions with heavy commercial air traffic. Because of these concerns, Austria said the CUSC found a location in 2265821 Expires 3/29/12 90 Day EZ Payment Plan Over 95% Approved G No Credit Check JobSourceOhio.com 2259818 southwestern Ohio where there is sufficient air space to test the UAS. He hopes that this location will aid in the FAA’s approval of production in the Dayton area. The Dayton region is a very competitive site for the development of these crafts, Austria said, because of the research being done and advanced technology being used by WPAFB and its Air Force Research Laboratory. “We already have the radar systems in place, sensors, and all the things we need to make it safe,” he said. In addition, UASs are already being controlled from Springfield by the Springfield National Guard. In a recent press release, Austria noted our region as being “at the forefront of UAS development, making it an ideal location for one of these pilot programs.” The expansion of a production test site in the Dayton region will also bring more opportunities for businesses to work with colleges, providing unique training for students before entering the workforce. “UASs will become more prominent as military aircraft systems continue to technologically advance,” Austria said. “This will put us in the Department of Defense’s future strategy.” The language of the FAA Reauthorization Reform Act of 2011 will establish each site for five years.

Deer DEER IN HEADLINES If illiteracy is the disease, then literacy is the cure Most Americans probably take for granted the ability to read and understand the words on this page. As a writer, I depend on the ability of the media-consuming public for my livelihood. But according to the National Adult Literacy Survey more than 42 million of my fellow Americans will never be able to enjoy (or detest) what I write because they can’t read. Back in college, I took a job with the school newspaper as a staff writer where I learned a great deal about journalism and the power of the written word. One of the best lessons came from our staff advisor who once said, “No matter what your career or life path, your communications skills, reading and writing, will be your most valuable asset.” She couldn’t have been more correct. I spent several years in the engineering fields for which I earned my degree, but ultimately I found my place as a fulltime business writer, editor and columnist. Unfortunately, I found my calling far later in life than I’d have liked to due to an undiagnosed learning disability that seriously impacted my reading speed and comprehension. Thousands of Ohio school children with learning disorders that affect their reading and writing skills continue to slip through the proverbial cracks every year, for a multitude of reasons I’ll reserve comment on for another time. Suffice to say, it’s our own fault, and by “our” I mean the taxpaying public that does far more to insist on a fancier football stadium than to demand instructional accountability and better support for these kids. Yes, there are laws in place and special education professionals to help identify and establish individualized educational plans for them, but, somehow, that never seems enough. Far too many still grow up unable to interpret the instructions on a can of soup. Growing up, a person with illiteracy will adopt various coping skills needed to get by, but are never able to fully realize their potential. Illiterate adults have more difficulty finding jobs, developing business relationships or even doing household chores like paying bills. Many politicians believe that illiteracy is one of those liberal issues, best left to bleeding hearts. In fact, such a staggeringly high number of illiterate citizens can be phenomenally detrimental to productive nation with a stable economy. As the economy crawls to recovery, illiteracy will continue to keep some people on the unemployment lines, thus, adding one more contributing factor to suffocating fiscal growth. Adults struggling with illiteracy earn, on average, less than $250 per week, work less than 20 weeks per year and are at least ten times more likely to live below the poverty line. How do we solve the problem? That’s a good question, with no easy solution. It often boils down to manpower and, dare I say it, money. If we think of illiteracy as the disease, then, surely, literacy should be the cure. So the best first step is to seek out help. Whether a child or an adult with a reading problem, there is help available, but sometimes you may have to get things started. If you believe your child is struggling, meet with his or her teacher as soon as you believe there might be a problem. With tighter budgets, class sizes are increasing and sometimes being pro-active is the best way to get individualized help from an overwhelmed, underpaid faculty. You can also find tutors at local colleges and civic centers. The same goes for adults as well. Community and career centers, local libraries and even senior citizen organizations are now offering adult literacy classes, either free or at a minimal cost. And schools can help too by reinforcing the importance in the curriculum of the Three R’s – Reading, Writing and Arithmetic - with sharp emphasis on the first R, which will make the other two far easier to learn. And, while technological education is important, particularly in today’s world, it might be time to cut back on the advanced computing classes and focus more thoroughly on reading skills. After all, knowing how to click a mouse is pointless if you can’t read what’s on the computer screen. Independent columnist Gery L.

The moral cost of new military strategy is too high The Iraq War was a disaster, so the United States needs a new foreign policy. Instead of invading foreign countries with tens of thousands of troops and trying to occupy and control the political process, President Barack Obama has embraced a new foreign military policy relying on “unmanned” drones and limited counterinsurgency forces. The poster child for this new war effort is the ongoing U.S. military action in Pakistan. ButWashington has also dramatically expanded the use of armed, unmanned military drones in East Africa and part of the Arabian Peninsula. The Congressional Research Service reports that our military has more than 7,000 drones in its arsenal. The arguments for drones are easy to make. In an era of federal budget deficits, drone warfare is cheaper than deploying soldiers, and apparently has widespread public support — 83 percent of people interviewed in a February 2012 ABC News/Washington Post poll said they approved of the president’s use of drones strikes to kill “terrorists.” The Obama administration’s new military strategy released earlier this year calls for shrinking the number of troops and relying more on drones and small-footprint military interventions. Following a series of interviews with administration officials, the journalist David Rohde dubbed this the new “Obama doctrine.” Before embracing this new strategy, Congress should consider its consequences. Our country doesn’t need a new era of secret wars with armed, military drones as the lead- COMMENTARY By Jim Cason Syndicated Columnist ing edge of covert or semi-covert military campaigns around the world. Yet that’s what we are getting. The operations that have been reported in the media include Somalia, Yemen, and of course Libya. And the results now include the extrajudicial killings, without charge or trial, of U.S. citizens. The explanation usually provided is that these were really bad people. “I want to make sure that people understand that drones have not caused a huge number of civilian casualties,” President Obama declared in January. “For the most part, they have been very precise, precision strikes against al-Qaeda and their affiliates.” Leaving aside the fact that people in Pakistan would dispute his count of civilian casualties, this is a slippery slope. We’re a nation of laws, not a nation of assassins. We have these laws precisely because we don’t want the president to become judge, jury, and executioner. What’s more, we don’t even know the scale of these killings because they are almost all secret. When Sen. Ron Wyden asked for details about the legal basis for using drones to kill U.S. citizens in another Don’t allow yourself to get old I have this theory. I think too many people allow themselves get old. How many times have you heard somebody say something like “Hey, Bill, let’s try this or that?” and Bill says “Oh, no, I’m too old to do either one.” Get real, Bill. If you are really too old to do both, it’s OK. But if you think maybe you CAN do both despite your advanced age then give it your best shot. The worst thing you can do is refuse to do something or other. I don’t mean try next-toimpossible things, like becoming an astronaut or making the Olympic ski team or signing a multi-year contract as a quarterback for the Cincinnati Bengals. I mean smaller, but just as important things, such as tak- COMMENTARY By Bob Batz Senior Moments ing a hike around the block or playing a little one-on-one basketball with a grandkid or spending the whole day fishing at your favorite lake or stream.

Rohde saw the impact of drones firsthand during the seven months he spent as a Taliban captive in the tribal areas of Pakistan. He has concluded that the Pakistani state is failing and the Obama administration’s drone war is only making things worse. “Pakistan is more unstable today than it was when Obama took office,” he writes in the latest issue of Foreign Policy. “And the percentage of Pakistanis supporting the use of the Pakistani Army to fight extremists in the tribal areas…dropped from 53 percent in 2009 to 37 percent today.” In Yemen, Obama’s drone strikes have increased the ranks of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula from 300 fighters in 2009 to more than 1,000 today. Washington now seems intent on exporting this same strategy to East Africa, where the Obama administration is using a combination of drone strikes and mercenary trainers for EastAfrican military forces to help stabilize Somalia. Rather than relying on a new type of military force, the Obama administration needs to invest in more diplomacy, development, and international cooperation. Unlike drones, they are proven tools for building peace.

(ISSN 8750-4650) (USPS) 94-540) RELIGION Plan to stand Joshua Chapters 23 and 24 record Joshua’s farewell address to his nation. Like many speeches, this speech has a statement that is always remembered. He says in 24: 15: “…as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” His bold promise to stand for the Lord no matter what should not be looked at as an arrogant statement, but rather a testimony of following a plan that God had laid down for his people. Joshua is sharing things he had observed in his eighty plus years of service in the nation. He had been the servant of Moses (what a mentor) and had led the nation of Israel himself in possessing the land of Canaan. After some twenty years of observing how the nation was doing in their new land, Joshua shares those truths that had guided his life. Let’s look at them. First, he was committed to the principles of God’s Word. Chapter 23 verse 6 says to keep and do all that is written in the book of the Law of Moses. We are not given the choice to just do what we want or what others think is alright. In his call to be the replacement for Moses, God instructed him to mediate on that Word day and night (1:8). We need to be obedient to what God says. He always has a good reason for what He does. Second, Joshua was appreciative of the person of God. Chapter 23 verse 7 warns against any other gods. Their nation would hear of the gods that the people of Canaan had served. There would be those that would come from other nations that also would introduce them to their gods. Israel was to DEVOTIONAL By the Rev. Ron Swiger Guest Columnist give all of their attention and allegiance to the God that had formed their nation since the days of Abraham. Joshua instructed them to remember what God had done for them. We do well today to remember what our God has done for us. Third, he was aware of the beauty of the presence of the Lord. Chapter 23 verse 8 admonishes us to be close to our God. The God of the Bible is known as one who desires to be close to his people. What a blessing it is to have a personal relationship through Jesus Christ with the god who made the World and all that is within it. As Joshua had witnessed in his 110 years on this earth, our God is an awesome God who is worthy of all of our worship and attention. What great advice Joshua had given to the people of his nation. The sad truth is that his words did not have a lasting effect upon them. Not long after his death and burial, they were openly serving other gods. Let’s not make the mistake they made. Let’s live by His principles, come to learn more of His person, and enjoy the blessing of His presence. Community dinners set FAIRBORN — Celebration Worship Ministries offered their first free community dinner Monday, Feb. 27. A spaghetti and meatball dinner served with a tossed salad and bread sticks was enjoyed by all who came. There were also cookies for dessert. With the success of this event, CWM will offer a free community dinner at 6 p.m. the last Monday of every month. Everyone is invited. “We want to help our neighbors as much as we can,” said Peggy Foland, Community Outreach Director. “We know that at the end of the month, some- times, grocery money and/or food stamps start to run very low. We want to assist Fairborn families meet their needs. Knowing a dinner is available to serve your family when the cupboards are bare is a great peace of mind. No one understands the stress a parent has when they have to worry about feeding their children unless they have been put in that place. We understand and want to help.” According to Foland, CWM wants their neighbors to know that they can reach out to them in their time of need. Other Fairborn churches are wonderful to offer free meals through the Sonset Café on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday throughout the month, so CWM wanted to help on a day that meals might be also needed. “We thought the end of the month would help lessen a little of the burden,” Foland said. The church also wants to invite those that would enjoy some conversation with friends. “No one likes eating alone, so we encourage singles, seniors, anyone that would like a dinner out to come and enjoy a free dinner,” Foland added. “We don’t mean for this to be just for the needy. We want to be a good neighbor to everyone.“ Farmers market meeting scheduled BATHTOWNSHIP — Vendors interested in participating in the 2012 Bath Presbyterian Church Farmers Market are invited to an open planning meeting at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 19 at the church, 4624 Bath Road.

Is today not looking much better? Paul, in the Bible, was human just like you and me. He experienced the “ups and downs” of life like us but something was different about him. What Paul had is not out of yours and my grasp. Paul went through all kinds of hardships: beatings, shipwrecks, starvation, homelessness, and imprisonment. At one point he was in a Roman prison in chains for speaking boldly for Christ. He pens a letter to many of the churches in the region near Ephesus. We call this letter in the Bible “Ephesians.” Ephesians is one of the most beautifully written books in the Bible. In the first chapter, he describes the position of the believer in Jesus Christ and gives great thanks for their faith in Him. How could a man chained in prison have the perspective and fortitude to write such a wonderful epistle? First, Paul knew his own identity. In Ephesians 1:1 it says, “Paul, an apostle of INSPIRATION By William Northington Guest Columnist Christ Jesus by the will of God…” An apostle is “one sent”. Paul had met the Lord on the road to Damascus and clearly heard his call to live for Him. He knew Jesus had sent him to preach the good news of God’s Kingdom to those who were lost. Everything he did was because God wanted him to do it. Paul knew who he was and this was demonstrated through his actions. Second, Paul was othersfocused. Paul rarely referenced himself and his own troubles unless it was to encourage or challenge others. In the second part of Ephesians 1:1, it indicates the letter is sent “To the saints in Ephesus, the faithful in Christ Jesus.” The reason we have so many letters from Paul that contribute signif icantly to our Bible today is because Paul had a true heart for others. He cared about what others needed and demonstrated this through reaching out through his missionary trav- Global Youth Service Day planned FAIRBORN — Global Youth Service Day is April 21 - 22, 2012.

No doubt if Paul was with us today he would have used any and every appropriate media possible to reach out to others. Third, Paul focused on Christ and blessed others. “Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.” (Ephesians 1:3-4) Paul continues in this f irst chapter to the Ephesians to share with them how they are loved, redeemed, adopted, chosen, and included in Christ. His focus is completely on Christ and the significance of who people are in Him. When you are having a challenging day, remember who you are in Christ, change your focus to others and on the Lord Jesus Himself. Out of this perspective and the life found in the Spirit, you will experience the same joy as Paul. William “Carey” Northington of One Master Ministries in Xenia may be contacted at OneMaster.org.

They outnumbered the congregation itself: a handful of elderly black men and women wearing suits and dresses and old-fashioned pillbox hats. “We’re hoping that you will remain in place during the preaching of the Gospel,” a church member said over the microphone at this Harlem church on a recent Sunday morning. “But if you have to go, go now. Go before the preacher stands to preach.” No one left then. But halfway through the sermon, a group of French girls made their way toward the velvet ropes that blocked the exit. An usher shook his head firmly, but they ignored him and walked out. The clash between tourists and con- gregants plays out every Sunday at Mother African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, the oldest black church in New York state. It’s one of many Harlem churches that have become tourist attractions for visitors from all over the world who want to listen to soulful gospel music at a black church service. With a record number of tourists descending upon New York City last year, the crowds of foreigners are becoming a source of irritation among faithful churchgoers. To preserve the sanctity of the service, pastors struggle to enforce strict rules of conduct. But the reality is that these visitors are often filling church pews that would otherwise remain empty and filling the collection basket with precious dollar bills. “Our building is in need of repair,” church member Paul Henderson said after the service. “We need assistance.

And still more forbid the tour companies from advertising which churches are on the tour in hopes of curbing the number of unwanted visitors. The Rev. Gregory Robeson Smith, Mother AME Zion’s pastor, refuses to work with tour operators. He doesn’t even like to use the word “tourist,” preferring instead to call them part of his “international congregation.” And he won’t turn anyone away. “I refuse to commercialize the church worship experience,” he said. “You don’t pay people to experience the Lord, to come and pray. I think that’s unconscionable.” Yet the tourists’ presence is undeniable. At Mother AME Zion, there were nearly 200 of them, overwhelming the congregation by at least 5 to 1.

Tours Unlimited. “They want to see what they’ve seen in the movies.” The gospel tour industry has exploded since it was born in the early 1980s. On a busy summer Sunday, Harlem Spirituals, one of the oldest and largest tour operators, might run 15 full buses, said Erika Elisabeth, a company vice president. Ticket prices but can cost up to $55. Most churches get a cut of the profit. Others, like Mother AME Zion, make money by encouraging visitors to drop a suggested donation into the collection basket. Without the tourists’ wallets, the organ might never get fixed. Mother AME Zion’s congregation is dying off, and there are very few young people left to fill the generation gap.

It has gotten so bad that I cringe every time we’re invited to family functions or get-togethers with friends. Sam uses these gatherings to be the star of the show, spilling out the most outrageous whoppers you can imagine. My family knows when he’s lying or exaggerating about something. They roll their eyes and nudge me to let me know they know. Sam fabricates the most outlandish stories and never owns up to anything he has done wrong. Instead he blames me or others for his actions. If I confront or challenge him, he gets defensive and says I’m “always” belittling or challenging him in front of others. Abby, even though I still care for this man, I don’t have the respect I wish I had for him. What can I do? — DISENCHANTED IN THE LAND OF ENCHANTMENT DEAR DISENCHANTED: After 32 years, there is nothing you can do about it. Your husband has a personality problem — probably related to insecurity — that causes him to lie to get By Abigail attention. It’s pathetic, really.

Until he’s ready to Columnist admit to himself that he has damaged his credibility so badly that no one believes a word he says, nothing will change. DEAR ABBY: My close friend “Kate” has just told me she’s getting a divorce. She confided that she cheated on her husband, “Phil,” and says she doesn’t want to try to work on her marriage, even though they have a baby together. Kate says that Phil is a great father and he’s not abusive — she just doesn’t love him anymore. This came as a shock to me, and I’m not sure how to be supportive. When I divorced, my husband was the one who cheated and left me, so I know how Kate’s husband feels. I know I should be sympathetic to her, but I don’t know what to say. Can you help? — TRYING NOT TO DEAR ABBY JUDGE DEAR TRYING: Continue trying not to judge. It is understandable that you’d identify with Kate’s husband since his position is so similar to what you experienced. If you know and like him, befriend him. I’m sure he could use a friend right now. However, before you do, ask Kate if she would mind. As to your question about what to say to her, all you really need to do is acknowledge her announcement by saying, “I’m sorry to hear it. I hope you have given it careful consideration.” Period.

All Rights Reserved. YDOLD SWUNIE UNDARO A: Yesterday’s XENIA — The ODNR Division of Wildlife hosted open houses in five locations across Ohio. Locally the open house was at the Greene County Fish and Game Association on Union Road. The open house events provide sportsmen and women the opportunity to get information on proposed hunting, fishing and trapping regulations. It is also a prime opportunity to meet with Division personnel to get questions answers. This year the major hunting regulation changes deal with some counties moving from Deer Zone A to Zone B, meaning that additional deer may be harvested. District 5 Wildlife Biologist and acting District Manager Dave Kohler explains the proposed changes, “There are several counties in western Ohio moving from Zone A to Zone B for deer hunting. We are above the target deer population numbers in those counties and want hunters to harvest more deer there. Additionally, the use of the special antlerless only deer tag will no longer be available for the deer gun week in Zone C. This makes the proposal consistent statewide the way it was in 2007 when that special permit was introduced.” Gazette photos by Larry Moore Looking ahead to the 2013 deer season, the Division was gatherDivision of Wildlife biologist, Brett Beatty (left) discussing input on a possible early season October two-day antlerless deer only season.

The comments will be summarized and presented to the Ohio to learn the details of the Division of Wildlife proposed Wildlife Council for consideration. hunting, fishing and trapping regulation changes.

With four starters back from last year’s 21-2 team, the Eagles won the program’s 11th Southwestern Buckeye League title in 12 seasons. On Friday, Bellbrook will be playing in the state Final Four for the first time since 1976, when the Lady Eagles made it to the Class AA title game against Columbus Hartley, losing 45-44. The road to Columbus has been a very competitive and challenging one, but Bellbrook (22-4) has answered every challenge to win sectional, district and regional championships. Those titles were captured this year against Alter, Kenton Ridge and Carroll respectively. A huge regional semi-final win against CJ has made the tourney run even sweeter. Last year, Bellbrook lost to CJ, 57-55, in the sectional final and CJ ended up falling to Carroll in the regional title game. But this year, the team always seems to find a way to win and snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. “The girls never forgot the feeling after losing to CJ last year,” Bellbrook head coach Jason Tincher said yesterday at Herald photos by Barb Slone practice. “They worked hard in Bellbrook players take part in their final practice before the off-season, getting into the departing for the Division II state semifinals today. The weight room and playing AAU Golden Eagles will play Shaker Heights Hathaway Brown ball.” in the tournament on Friday at 3 p.m. in Value City Arena See STATE, Page 14A ➤ at the Jerome Schottenstein Center. ■ NCAA First Four South Florida works over Cal in NCAA tourney By JOE KAY AP Sports Writer DAYTON (AP) — Ugly, ugly, ugly. Just the way South Florida likes it. The Bulls introduced the NCAA tournament to the Big East's nastiest defense Wednesday night, putting more than just a chill into a California team that had never seen anything like it. The Bulls allowed only 13 points in the first half and brushed their way to a 65-54 victory. South Florida (21-13) will play ■ No. 5 seed Temple in Nashville on Friday, a matchup of teams known for gritty defense. Few have been better than this one for the first 20 minutes on the NCAA stage. The Bulls swarmed 'em, bumped em' and swatted their shots away — those that weren't air balls, that is. California (24-10) didn't score over the last 8:55 of the first half, missing 10 shots and turning it over twice while South Florida pulled ahead 36-13. Guard Jorge Gutierrez, the Pac12 player of the year, was held to 10 points on 4-of-10 shooting. It wasn't all defense that got it done for South Florida. Freshman point guard Anthony Collins, a thin-built player with a youthful face that reminds coach Stan Heath of a 12-year-old kid, played like a star in his first NCAA tournament game, scoring 12 points. Victor Rudd had 15 points The Golden Bears won't soon forget the way they got worked over. They must have felt as if there were six Bulls on the floor at times playing defense. No, only five. The refs counted. The Bulls set a Big East record by giving up only 56.9 points per game this season. Their problem: They score about as many points as they give up. South Florida didn't have a player average in double figures for the season. Realizing he didn't have many scoring options, Heath instituted the defense-first, defense-last philosophy that got them to their first NCAA tournament appearance in 20 years and, now, their first win. The Bulls came in 0-2 in the tour- Area Athlete ■ Greeneview’s Woods commits to play soccer for Michigan By JON RUDY Sports Writer [email protected] JAMESTOWN — Being an Ohio State fan growing up, Greeneview’s Rylee Woods was hoping he wouldn’t like Michigan when he visited the campus. Turns out, he liked everything about it. The Rams’ junior has verbally committed to play soccer for the Wolverines in 2013. He’ll sign his National Letter of Intent next February. “Everything about the school, from the coaches to the education, I liked,” said Woods. “The whole attitude up there was just great.” Woods said he had made visits to Ohio State, Cincinnati and the College of Charleston. In the end though, despite approaching the school with cautious optimism, Michigan was too appealing. “There’s nothing you can’t like about it,” Woods said. Woods will be the third Greeneview player under head coach Bob Eakins to sign with a Division I college. Ryan Hartman signed with Dayton, and Kyle Bryan signed with Wright State. “Not that I had anything to do with it. I’m just excited for the kid,” Eakins said. “It’s quite an accomplishment, and it’s a testament to his work ethic and willingness to succeed on the field.” Michigan’s men’s soccer program recently hired former Providence College head coach Chaka Daley to be its new head coach. Woods said he was excited to play for Daley as well as new assistant coach Tommy McMenemy, who joined the program after coaching at Columbia University. “I like the coaches’ style. They said they like to knock the ball around and keep possession, and since I’m more of a technical player, I like that style of play,” Woods said. Woods is a part of the Crew Academy soccer team, which recently switched to a 10-month season. Because of the overlap on the high school varsity season, Woods will likely have to decide whether he wants to continue to play for the Rams for his senior season, or play for the Crew for the remainder of his prep career. “I like to play at that high level with the Crew, especially going into college,” Woods said. “I’d love to enjoy my last year of high school soccer, but the Crew environment might be better for me.” nament. Other teams exult when one of their players hits a big basket. The Bulls cheer from the bench as the other team passes the ball around helplessly and hopelessly. They were cheering their defense from the opening tip. The first time down the court, Gutierrez forced a running shot that was too hard, a taste of the misery ahead. California missed its first five shots and eight of its first nine, helping South Florida pull ahead 15-3. Boys Prep Volleyball Fairborn boys’ volleyball team ready for season FAIRBORN — The Fairborn boys varsity volleyball program will open the 2012 season hosting its first ever TriState Tri-Match against Wapahani High School (Selma, Indiana) and Holy Cross (Covington, Kentucky) on March 24, 2012 at the Fairborn Memorial Field House located at Fairborn Baker Middle School. The Fairborn Skyhawks look to rebound from a rough 2011 season after going 1-22. The 2012 season is now in the hands of first year head coaches James and Molly Patterson. The duo has a long history of collegiate coaching experience and recently spent the 2011 boys’ season with Wayne High School. Along with a change in coaching staff comes a change in scenery. The program will now host its home matches at the Fairborn Memorial Field House located adjacent to the Fairborn Baker Middle School facility. The varsity and junior varsity teams will also be breaking in brand new uniforms this season donated by the Fairborn Skyhawk Athletic Club. The Tri-State Tri-Match will begin at 11 a.m. with Holy Cross and Fairborn followed by Holy Cross and Wapahani at 12:15 p.m. and finally Wapahani and Fairborn at 1:30 p.m. Following the tri-match the Fairborn volleyball, parents will be providing a meal for all the teams in attendance prior to their departure. SPORTS 14A Thursday, March 15, 2012 ■ Fairborn Daily Herald Cleveland Browns Browns release Steinbach, lose Hillis By TOM WITHERS AP Sports Writer CLEVELAND (AP) — On the second day of free agency, the Cleveland Browns cut loose a reliable player and parted ways with a problematic one. The team released veteran offensive guard Eric Steinbach, once a major acquisition who missed last season following back surgery and was due to make $6 million this season. Also, running back Peyton Hillis signed a one-year deal with Kansas City, ending his star-crossed stay in Cleveland. The 31-year-old Steinbach underwent an operation to fix a disc in August and was forced to sit out his out his fifth season with Cleveland, which signed him to a seven-year, $49.5 million deal in 2007. Agent Jack Bechta was unable to negotiate a new deal with the Browns. According to ■ Prep Basketball ■ Bechta, the team wanted Steinbach to "take a significant salary reduction." In releasing Steinbach, the Browns will be further under the salary cap. It's still possible Steinbach could resign with the Browns after testing the open market. "These types of decisions are the difficult part of this job, especially when it involves a player such as Eric Steinbach," Browns general manager Tom Heckert said. "Eric exhibited tremendous leadership and passion for the game during his time here. We want to thank him for his contributions." As for Hillis, the Browns kept open the possibility of re-signing the former 1,100-yard-plus rusher whose 2011 season was loaded with unnecessary drama. With the Chiefs, Hillis will be reunited with former Browns offensive coordinator Brian Daboll, who was with Hillis in Cleveland in 2007 when he rushed for 1,177 yards and 11 touchdowns. He'll also play for former Browns coach Romeo Crennel. After agreeing to his deal with the Chiefs, Hillis tweeted: "Appreciate all my fans in Cleveland for the support given to me in my time there. Can't wait to get back on the field and go to work in KC." Last week, Browns general manager Tom Heckert said the club was still interested in re-signing Hillis, who changed agents three times in the past year as he tried to work out a longterm deal with Cleveland. Hillis' contract issues bled into the regular season, when he was sidelined with a hamstring injury and angered his teammates by sitting out a game with strep throat. He's run away on start anew. Steinbach proved to be money well spent by the Browns. He played in 62 of 64 games — every offensive snap in 2009 and 2010 — before hurting his back during training camp and undergoing surgery. Steinbach, who played four seasons in Cincinnati before signing with Cleveland, has been working hard to get back in shape and believes he can still play at a high level. When Steinbach was lost for the season, rookie Jason Pinkston filled in at left guard alongside Pro Bowl tackle Joe Thomas and did a solid job. The 6-foot-6, 295-pound Steinbach was a presence on and off the field for the Browns. He and his wife, Caroline, have been active in the Cleveland community. Steinbach released a statement thanking the Browns, owner Randy Lerner and Cleveland's fans.

The three-time defending Division II state champions Blazers posted their 27th straight win to get to the state. Last year, Hathaway Brown defeated Carroll in the D-II title game, 54-51. Hathaway has a trio of juniors that are at least six feet tall. Vanessa Smith, 6-foot-1, Nia Marshall, 6-foot-1 and six-foot-four Stephanie Poland. Smith is the top scorer for the Blazers and Marshall can score as well. Poland uses her length to alter shots around the rim. While watching film yesterday, the Eagles remained confident that they can find a way to win in Columbus. “I feel like we can play with them and I think we can overcome their size,” said Bellbrook’s six foot sophomore post, Chea Taylor, who has performed well against other talented inside players this year. “She’s (Poland) is tall, but I think I will have a strength advantage.” Junior Erin Dorn can make shots during crunch time of game. She’s ready for the challenge of playing against the Blazers. “The nerves might be there at first but we have played in big games and big arenas, so I think we will be ready Friday,” Dorn said. And of course you cannot talk Bellbrook hoops without the mention of senior Leisha Crawford. She took over the second half against Carroll and helped push the Eagles to victory. She’s ready to do it again Friday. “We feel a sense of pride in representing our school and community by going to Columbus,” Crawford said. “I think we all feel confident that we can play with them and win the game.” Tincher, who was a standout athlete at Bellbrook and then Wilmington College, is very proud of his squad making it to Columbus. “I feel very fortunate to be a part of all of this,” he said. “I am glad to have a front row seat to watch what these girls have accomplished.

GOODYEAR,Ariz. (AP) — Aroldis Chapman wants to be a starter and took a big step toward that goal with a new pitch and new focus. Chapman pitched more than two innings in a big league game for the first time, allowing one run over three innings in the Cincinnati Reds' 9-4 loss to a San Diego Padres in a splitsquads game Wednesday. Chapman revived a split-finger fastball while allowing four hits, including a homer to Andy Parrino. "I threw some split-finger fastballs today," Chapman said through interpreter Tomas Vera. "The Reds asked me not to throw that pitch when I first signed with them but now since I'm a starter they told me to go ahead." The Cuban defector is being converted into a starter and is competing for the fifth spot in the Reds' rotation. He is the only left-hander among the group. As a reliever, Chapman relied heavily on a fastball clocked as high as 105 mph, but as a starter he needs to develop another quality pitch. What he is primarily focused on is throwing strikes. "Chapman had close to seven walks per nine innings," Dusty Baker said. "That's a lot. He was pretty good today. He gave up some hits but only one run." Chapman insisted he knew he allowed to many walks. "No one told me that I needed to cut down on walks. I've been focusing on throwing more strikes. My concentration wasn't always there last year because of personal problems.” "It has been a good ride in Cleveland and I hope it can continue," he said. "I'm proud to say that the offensive line has been a bright spot through the past few seasons. It has been a privilege to play for the city of Cleveland and its rich tradition. Mr. Lerner has always treated me with respect and I sincerely appreciate the opportunity to work for him and his organization. "I will continue to work with the Browns through my agent in hopes of striking a deal that is practical and fair for both sides. In the meantime, I will explore other opportunities. If I do move on, I want to thank the people and fans of Cleveland who have treated my family and I with great support and hospitality. If my time here comes to an end, I want the people of this great city to remember one thing; 'You stay classy Cleveland!'" ■ NCAA Tournament Buckeyes still smarting from last year's exit Al Behrman/AP Vermont forward Luke Apfeld hugs forward Matt Glass (34) after they defeated Lamar 71-59 in an NCAA first-round college basketball tournament game, Wednesday in Dayton. McGlynn scores 18 points, Vermont stops Lamar By RUSTY MILLER AP Sports Writer DAYTON (AP) — It's been seven years since Vermont's signature win in school history. The Catamounts think it's about time for another. North Carolina, are you paying attention? Freshman Four McGlynn came off the bench to score 18 points and Vermont grabbed an early lead and hung on to beat Lamar 71-59 on Wednesday night in a firstround NCAA tournament game. Matt Glass added 11 points, Sandro Carissimo 10 and Brian Voelkel had 12 rebounds to help the Catamounts earn a spot against the top-seeded Tar Heels on Friday in Greensboro, N.C. Their only previous NCAA tournament win was a stunning 60-57 upset of fourthseeded Syracuse by the 13thseeded Catamounts in the first round of the 2005 tournament. "The Syracuse game was a huge win for Vermont and the community," Voelkel said. "Obviously, we're going to come into North Carolina with a lot of confidence and hopefully we can pull off another upset and give the people of Burlington something to cheer about." The Catamounts (24-11) shot 50 percent from the field, blending an inside presence with McGlynn's touch from the perimeter. But the America East tournament champions will be severely tested down where the skies are Carolina Blue. "Obviously, North Carolina is one of the best teams in the country," first-year Catamounts coach John Becker said. "They've got a roster of future NBA stars. We're just going to do what we do — continue to play our brand of basketball." McGlynn, the only player in all of Division I to lead his team in scoring (12.0) without starting a game and yet playing in every contest, provided punch to Vermont's offense. He entered in the first half and immediately ignited a 130 rally that gave the Catamounts a lead that they never relinquished. "It was my first NCAA tournament game. I thought I played pretty well," McGlynn said after hitting 5 of 9 shots from the field including 3 of 5 3-pointers and adding 5 of 6 free throws. "I got in a good flow. I give all the credit to my teammates." Vermont's ability to hang on to a lead has been a rarity at University of Dayton Arena. Both Mississippi Valley State and Iona built big leads and then blew them in first-night losses to Western Kentucky and BYU, respectively. Devon Lamb and Mike James each had 16 points for Lamar (23-12), which had won six in a row since firstyear coach Pat Knight ripped his seniors after a loss in late February. He said they were "stealing money being on scholarship" and that his players had problems "off the court, on the court, classroom, drugs." By JIM O'CONNELL AP Basketball Writer PITTSBURGH (AP) — Ohio State has four sophomore starters and one bad NCAA tournament memory. The Buckeyes were knocked out of last year's tournament in the regional semifinals by a jumper by Kentucky's Brandon Knight with 5 seconds to play. A No. 1 seed last year, the Buckeyes felt their season ended way too soon. A No. 2 seed this year, Ohio State starts a run at a 10th Final Four when it plays 15th-seeded Loyola (Md.) on Thursday night in the second round of the East Regional. "I just think it affected everyone a little differently last year," sophomore guard Aaron Craft said. "Everyone kind of took a step back and felt what they could do to make the game change. At the same time I think we did a good job of trying to move on. We can't live in the past. Figure out a way to help this basketball team be better, because it's not the same as last year." The Buckeyes (27-7) were a tri-champion of the Big Ten this season. Loyola (24-8) finished second in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference and won the conference tournament to seal its second NCAA tournament berth, 22 behind the Buckeyes. "I know what a great team Ohio State is. It's an honor to play them," Greyhounds coach Jimmy Patsos said. "We probably have little chance of winning the game. Four minutes at a time, we'll see what we can do." Ohio State's Jared Sullinger was a first-team All-America last season as a freshman. He averaged 17.6 points and 9.3 rebounds this season while earning All-Big Ten honors. "In March you enter the tournament, records go out the door. It's not about what conference they're from," Sullinger said. "Doesn't matter what is the record. Everybody is fighting for their life. We got to understand that tomorrow is not a promise. I think that's the biggest motto this basketball team has to embrace is: Tomorrow's not a promise." Sullinger sounded like someone who believes that when he talks about Loyola, which had the first 20-win season in school history in 2011-12. "They're a very athletic basketball team. They like to get up and down the floor. Love transition," Sullinger said. "A lot of guys can score the basketball for them. I mean, they have five guys averaging double figures so they're a very balanced team. One person is not going to beat us. It's a team effort. We have to stop everybody." That's what Patsos is afraid of. "We'll still run and press against them," said Patsos, a longtime assistant to former Maryland coach Gary Williams. "Ohio State wants to play their way.

"What game? Is there a game?" Kentucky coach John Calipari joked Wednesday after he and his players answered 15 questions ranging from the coach's name surfacing in NBA circles to the fashion statement the 'Cats were making with snapback hats. It's easy to forget the Hilltoppers. They struggled so much this season that when they held a promotion for $1 tick- ets only about 2,000 fans showed up. Nearly four times as many Wildcats' fans watched Kentucky practice Wednesday at the KFC Yum! Center. "It's going to be a crazy environment," Western Kentucky guard Jamal Crook said. "They pack their fans in the arena everywhere they go. So you know it's going to be crazy." Western Kentucky was a longshot to even be here and is a 25-point underdog. But the Hilltoppers have won seven straight games, coming from behind each time, culminating with Tuesday's record rally. With President Barack Obama in attendance, Western Kentucky overcame an NCAA-record 16-point deficit with less than 5 minutes to go in a 59-58 victory over Mississippi Valley State to become the sixth team to win a game in the tournament with a losing record. "We're expecting to throw the first punch out there and do something tomorrow that a lot of people haven't seen before," said Hilltoppers guard Derrick Gordon, a teammate of Kentucky's Michael Kidd-Gilchrist in high school at St. Patrick's in New Jersey. "Nobody's ever seen a 16 seed take down a No. 1 seed, so we're just trying to make history." The Hilltoppers have had tournament success against Kentucky, knocking the Wildcats off in 1971 on the way to the school's only Final Four that was later vacated by the NCAA because of rules violations.

(AP) — "Pink slime" just went from a simmer to a boil. In less than a week earlier this month, the stomach-turning epithet for ammonia-treated ground beef filler suddenly became a potent rallying cry by activists fighting to ban the product from supermarket shelves and school lunch trays. Though the term has been used pejoratively for at least several years, it wasn't until last week that social media suddenly exploded with worry and an online petition seeking its ouster from schools lit up, quickly garnering hundreds of thousands of supporters. "It sounds disgusting," said food policy expert Marion Nestle, who notes that the unappetizing nickname made it easier for the food movement to flex its muscles over this cause. "A lot of people have been writing about it. Therefore, more people know about it, therefore more people are queasy about it, particularly when you start thinking about how this stuff turns up in school lunches," said Nestle, a professor at New York University's Department of Nutrition, Food Studies and Public Health. The controversy centers on "lean finely textured beef," a low-cost ingredient in ground beef made from fatty bits of meat left over from other cuts. The bits are heated to about 100 F and spun to remove most of the fat. The lean mix then is compressed into blocks for use in ground meat. The product, made by South Dakota-based Beef Products Inc., also is exposed to "a puff of ammonium hydroxide gas" to kill bacteria, such as E. coli and salmonella. There are no precise numbers on how prevalent the product is and it does not have to be labeled as an ingredient. Past estimates have ranged as high as 70 percent; one industry officials estimates it is in at least half of the ground meat and burgers in the United States. It has been on the market for years and federal regulators say it meets standards for food safety. But advocates for wholesome food have denounced the process as a potentially unsafe and unappetizing example of industrialized food production. The epithet "pink slime," coined by a federal microbiologist, has appeared in the media at least since a critical 2009 New York Times report. Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver has railed against it and it made headlines after McDonald's and other major chains last year discontinued their use of ammonia-treated beef. But "pink slime" outrage seemed to reach new heights last week amid reports by The Daily and ABC News. The Daily piece dealt with the U.S. Department of Agriculture's purchase of meat that included "pink slime" for school lunches. The story touched a nerve with Houston resident Bettina Siegel, whose blog "The Lunch Tray" focuses on kids' food. On March 6, she started an online petition on Change.org asking Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack to "put an immediate end to the use of 'pink slime' in our children's school food." "When I put it up, I had this moment of embarrassment," she said, "What if only 10 people sign this?" No problem there. Supporters signed on fast. By Wednesday afternoon, the electronic petition had more than 220,000 signatures. Organizers of Change.org said the explosive growth is rare among the roughly 10,000 petitions started there every month. Meanwhile, Google searches for "pink slime" spiked dramatically. It has become the food version of Joseph Kony, the rogue African warlord virtually unknown in the United States until this month, when an (AP Photo/Beef Products Inc.) In this undated image released by Beef Products Inc., boneless lean beef trimmings are shown before packaging. The debate over “pink slime” in chopped beef is hitting critical mass. The term, adopted by opponents of “lean finely textured beef,” describes the processed trimmings cleansed with ammonia and commonly mixed into ground meat. Federal regulators say it meets standards for food safety. Critics liken it to pet food _ and their battle has suddenly gone viral amid new media attention and a snowballing online petition. online video campaign against him caught fire. But why is "pink slime" striking a nerve now? Issues can to go from a simmer to an explosion when content with broad interest — such as like food safety — is picked up and disseminated by widely connected people, said Marc A. Smith, director of the Social Media Research Foundation. These people act like "broadcast hubs," dispersing the information to different communities. "What's happening is that the channels whereby this flood can go down this hill have expanded," Smith said "The more there are things like Twitter, the easier it is for these powder kegs to explode." In this case, Siegel thinks the added element of children's school lunches could have set off this round. "That's what upset me. This idea that children are passively sitting in a lunch room eating what the government sees fit to feed them and McDonald's has chosen not to use it, but the government is still feeding it to them," she said. "That really got my ire." The USDA — which did not directly address Siegel's petition — buys about a fifth of the food served in schools nationwide. The agency this year is contracted to buy 111.5 million pounds of ground beef for the National School Lunch Program. About 7 million pounds of that is from Beef Products Inc., though the pink product in question never accounts for more than 15 percent of a single serving of ground beef. "All USDA ground beef purchases must meet the highest standards for food safety. USDA has strengthened ground beef food safety standards in recent years and only allows products into commerce that we have confidence are safe," agency spokesman Aaron Lavallee said in an email. Beef Product Inc. stresses that its product is 100 percent lean beef and is approved by a series of industry experts. The company's new website, pinkslimeisamyth.com, refutes some common criticisms of the product ("Myth 4: Boneless lean beef trimmings are produced from inedible meat"). The National Meat Association also has joined the fight, refuting that the product is made from "scraps destined for pet food" and other claims. The industry group also said that ammonium hydroxide is used in baked goods, puddings and other processed foods. Association CEO Barry Carpenter, who has visited BPI plants and watched the process, said critics don't seem to have the facts. "It's one of those things. It's the aesthetics of it that just gets people's attention," Carpenter said. "And in this case, it's not even legitimate aesthetics of it. It's a perception of what it is." Proponents of the process stress that it is both federally regulated and safe. Though Nestle said the focus on safety misses the larger point. "I'm not arguing that that stuff is unsafe," she said, "I'm arguing that it's the lowest common denominator."
