Zeller said a new schedule for construction of the new school, for which district voters. approved a $31 mil lion bond issue, will be drawn up following a USACE public hearing on the wetlands issue set for Sept. 6 at Brookside High School. "Everything's on hold for now," Zeller said. "We can't break ground or even start clearing away the trees until we have the wetlands permit in hand. We'll reissue a compressed construction schedule sometime after the public hearing, since the buffer time built into our original schedule, to account for weather or other possible delays, has already been used up. If we can advertise for bids while waiting for the permit to be issued, probably by January but possibly as soon as November, and we can start the construction process this winter, in January or Feb ruary, and everything goes well, especially the 6:30 p.m. weather, classes could still be in session in the new building by late August of 2014. But everything would have to go well in order to be able to move in that time."

Water-loving vegetables wither, while drought-toler ant plants like peppers and Todd Danielson tomatoes produce great tasting vegetables/fruits even though the plants may not look good. Here are suggestions to help keep your lawn, garden and landscaping healthy. . Lawn Most lawns planted in northern Ohio can handle mod drought. Brown lawns mean that they are dormant. means that the grass has died. If let your lawn Gray erate yo� you CARTOON your lawn. Lawns need about one inch of water a week, and dividing it into. no. more than two. soakings is optimal.

To best protect that lawn, let the grass grow longer, Keeping it between three and four inches long is recommended. The longer blades will shade the soil and limit evaporative losses. If YDU do water, deeper, less frequent soakings are much better for Northeast Ohio is currently experiencing a moderate drought, which is a huge change from last summer; and these conditions are expected to persist through October, Thereare'avariety of ,-----------, are • http://alwtr.us/GrassMgt. The best time to. water is between about 4 and 9 a.m. The secDnd best time is between about 4 and 7 p.m. Mid day watering wastes up to. 30 percent to. evaporation. Nighttime watering increases susceptibility to. fungus and mold diseases on plants. Gardens Hopefully, YDU conditioned your garden with organic humus Dr compost. That will hold moisture better than native soils. The best way to' maintain your garden is through drip irrigation Dr soaker hoses that apply water directly to' the soil above the root zone, Preferably, these hoses are placed under two' to three inches Df mulch that helps retain soil moisture. Landscaping Trees and shrubs need more water when freshly as they mature. Freshly less and planted trees planted, should receive about five gallons applied to. the' root ball about every other day. Shrubs need about a gallon every few days. It is important not to. overwater, Feeling the moisture level with your finger two. to. three inches below ground surface Dr using a moisture sensor will help en sure you don't drown Dr dry DUt your plants. More mature trees/shrubs need water applied near the drip line (about the outer edge of where the leaves are) weekly or less. See http://alwtr.us/'freeWtr for more information.

Dan LaVigne Avon Lake Poor park management To the Editor: I'm having a hard time understanding why the manage ment of Lorain County Metro Parks, along with TruNorth Cultural Arts, found it necessary recently to' hire talent from outside Lorain County to entertain the public at Lakeview Park in Lorain. A swing band was hired from Cleveland for a concert at Lakeview Park when Lorain County has a gem EDITOR of a big band, the Swing City Big Band right here in Lorain County with members that live right her in Lorain County. In my opinion, in this case, by not hiring local talent, the Lorain County Metro Parks and TruNorth seem to be mismanaged and used very po.or judgment. We as a county can do better for our own public and county by promoting talented musicians who. live and work in Lorain County, Gary Lyman Sanders Sheffield Lake Speedway debate heats up To the Editor: On July 18, I attended with a grDUp of concerned citi of Sheffield Lakes Board of Appeals. Speed meeting needed a way huge amount, seven total, of variances so they could squeeze one of their formula gas stations in to' a too small size lot, All valences were passed unanimously, with no. regard to' Citizen objections, Planning Commission meet were also held because ings Speedway also needed a spot zoning change from Bl to' B5 on the expansion property. The Planning Commission approved this change unani mously, The change to' B5 zoning brings with it manymore safety and environmental hazards. Zoning is put in place for a reason and to. pass all these changes so. lightly makes a mockery of zoning. These committees should be doing what is best for our citizens. These changes only enrich big zens a corporate Speedway. It was noted in the meeting that Lake Road only has a 6inch pipe for water runoff Speedway reps presented a last minute, Dn the fly change that will have them use the creek behind the property that runs in to. Lake Erie as a better so lution. The choice is to. possibly pollute Lake Erie with gas station chemical runoff Dr have more flooded.basements, Maybe the solution is that Sheffield Lake really doesn't need a bigger gas station and also should work on its infra structure before growing: alSo. there is no. need for a bigger convenience store when we already have many conven ience stores on Lake Road. The words "non-conforming residential use" has been .used by many in a way that suggests some sort of illegal sta tus to. the houses in the Bl area. Fact is most of these houses predate any zoning, and it is not illegal to. build a new house inaBl zone. - Letters to the Editor policy The Press encourages Letters to the Editor.

The practice of placing a joke on the two-sided sign has been a welcome sight for many Avon Lake residents.

"Then we put up a notice about our vacuum cleaners, and people started talking about that, and we put up some more jokes. keeping it clean for the public. After that it just caught on.

Traveling down Detroit Road in Avon, motorists will see signs advertising local businesses, new home construction and probably a few garage sales. However, Cheryl Huene has a sign in front of her De troit Road home advertising something different: free copies of the U.S. Constitution. The sign directs any one interested to the side porch, where a basket full of the documents rests. Next to the basket, a second note reads, "Help yourself and take extra to share." "I think we're losing our Constitution," Huene said. "I think it's being chipped away and it's being ignored and abused, and so we felt that perhaps peo ple would have a change of heart if they actually had a chance to read it. We just feel that people, if they have studied the Constitution in school, they have forgotten it, perhaps, and that it's important that everybody know what the Constitution has to say." Huene reported she became politically active about eight years ago, and the idea to offer copies of the U.S. Constitution came to her while visiting Or rville, Ohio. At the time of her trip to Orrville, Huene said, she was frustrated with the state of the federal government and was unsure of how to begin confronting her frustrations. During her trip she stopped in a restaurant and found a pocket-sized U.S. Constitution on her table. "When I picked it up, it was, like, this is it; 'peo ple need to see what the Constitution actually says and make their own decisions, and from there we or dered them online and we started handing them out," Huene said. r: ,o".�., ;" _"« ': ,'<' , ...,.ED STATES POCKET' 0_' CONSTITVrION ( iliON PORCH Huene has been _ offering the pocket Constitutions for about a year and a half, and she estimates that she has given away around 2,700 copies of the docu taken them to the different places we go, also taken them to 'different organizations we belong to and of fered them. We have also given them to two of the different schools, Avon Lake and Westlake." Huene explained that an eighth-grade teacher from Westlake City Schools stopped over one day. The teacher said he was educating his students about the Constitution, and Huene provided him with around 375 copies of the Constitution to hand out to the entire eighth-grade class. Despite the current divisive environment sur rounding national politics, Huene reported that no passersby have had any negative reactions to her offer. Furthermore, she noted that no one has stopped and attempted to debate politics with her. "Everybody that stops is just very, very nice; we have met wonderful people," Huene said. "We have had people ask, 'Is there a reason that you're doing this?' and no. there is no political agenda behind it. I just think people need to be aware of what the Con stitution is." Huene plans to continue offering free pocket Con stitutions for the foreseeable future. For anyone in terested in picking up a copy of the document, travel down Detroit Road near the Avon-Westlake border and look for the white sign on the south side of the road. ment.

"I was always getting suspended from school, and my dad got me into it," Williams said about how he began to box around five years ago. "I have probably matured a lot faster doing boxing." Williams said he trains four or five hours a day. The mental aspect of fighting is just as important as the physical training, he said. "Sticking to the game plan, that's what you got to keep in your mind," Williams said. "Just block out everybody else' and just focus on you and the man in the ring and listen to your corner." Abigail Johnson, '15, of Avon. is one of the few women training at Chu To Bu. Johnson is involved in the judo program and trains with fully grown men. "It's a little different. The women don't necessarily fight harder or less hard; they fight different," John son said. She added that training with and against men has advantages and disadvantages in helping her prepare for judo competitions.

After flirting with pitches from di rector Darren Aronofsky, who would have been an interesting choice to do dark mate rial with the caped crusader, it's obvious in hindsight Warner Bros. made the right rector were choice with Nolan. Nolan made the terrific mystery thrillers "Memento" (2000) and "Insomnia" (2002) before being hired to resuscitate the Batman franchise with "Batman Begins" in 2005. Nolan wanted to base his characters and story in a real world, with serious top-shelf actors (Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Liam Neeson, Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman, Tom Wilkinson, etc.). Nolan and co-screenwriter David S. Goyer took their time developing the char acters and the origin of Batman, so by the time the superhero makes his first on screen appearance (nearly 45 minutes into the hooked into the story line and cared about the plight of Bruce film), viewers Wayne. were With the "Dark Knight," the filmmakers were challenged with making a sequel that was at least as good as the first installment. Nolan's brilliant stroke was not only having the Joker as the main nemesis, but casting the talented Heath Ledger as one of the if not best, movie villains ever seen greatest, on screen. With Gotham's hero district attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart) broken down and turned into the' evil Two-Face by the Joker, and with the city in shambles due to the clown-faced maniac's reign of-terror, Batman confides to Commissioner Gordon (Oldman) he needs to disappear. Batman feels his presence only endangers Gotham's citizens from crazed super villain types. Taking place eight years after the events of "The Dark Knight," "The Dark Knight Rises" opens with the introduction of Bane and his terrorist organization staging the hi jacking of an airplane in midflight. Bane is a hulking villain who is Batman's most physically intimidating foe to date. With his face partially covered by a breathing device reminiscent of Hannibal Lecter's mouth guard, Bane's scary presence is even more frightening by his voice, altered by his mask. Tom Hardy, who had a scene-steal ing role in Nolan's 2010 epic masterpiece "Inception," plays the mysterious Bane. Bane has a master plan to take over Gotham, and Bruce Wayne, now older and physically banged up, is wrestling with the decision to bring Batman back out to help save the city. In addition to Hardy, there are a few big-name actors joining the franchise in this final installment. Selina is a clever cat thief (played by Oscar nominee Anne Hathaway), and while she-is never called Catwoman, her leather outfits and the clever way Nolan makes her night vision goggles look like cal ears definitely inform the viewers she is Nolan's version of Cat woman. Oscar-winning actress Marion Cotillard ends on high CHRISTIAN BALE RETURNS Warner Bros. as Batman in "The Dark plays Miranda, who appears to just be Bruce Wayne's potential new love interest at first, but has a deeper connection to the story than first appears. Joseph Gordon Levitt, who was also in Nolan's "Inception" ensemble, plays young police officer Blake, who mayor may not know Wayne is really a world full of corruption and crooked cops, Blake is one man Batman and Commissioner Gordon can trust. Batman and Bane have a famous show- Batman. In I note Knight Rises:' Photo courtesy of down in one comic book in which the vil lain breaks our hero's back after some hand to-hand combat. With Nolan and Bale swearing this is the final installment of the trilogy, many fans are worried if Batman will be killed off at the end of the film. All I will say is Nolan ends the, series with a clever and extremely satisfying ending, proving he is one of the smartest filmmak ers in Hollywood.

But, as an investor, one of the biggest risks you face is that of not achieving your long-term goals, such enjoying a your life. To help reach your need to own "a variety of investment, objectives, you and each carries its own type of risk. vehicles If you spread your investment dollars among ve hicles that carry different types of r.isk, you may in crease your chances of owning some investments that do well, even if, at the same time, you own oth ers that aren't. As a result, you may be able to re duce the overall level of volatility in your portfolio. (Keep in mind, though, that diversification can't guarantee a profit or protect against all losses.) To diversify your risk factors, you first need to recognize them. Here are some of the most com mon types of investment risk: This is the type of risk that every Market risk the risk that you could lose' prin one thinks about cipal jf the value of your investment drops and does not recover before you sell it.

Fixed-income investments can help pro vide reliable income streams, but you also need to consider investments with growth potential to help work toward your long-term goals. Interest-rate risk Bonds and other fixed-income investments are subject to interest-rate risk. If you own a bond that pays 4 percent interest, and newly issued bonds pay 5 percent, it would be difficult to sell your bond for full price. So if you wanted to sell it prior to maturity, you might have to offer it at a discount to the original.price. However, if you hold your bonds to maturity, you can expect to receive return of your principal provided the bond does not - Waiting for Home Price You Out of the many prospective buyers While further price declines may be realized, I believe there is a greater likelihood of rising interest rates making purchasing now a better option than waiting for further potential price decl ines. We' have said before that no one can be sure we are at the bottom of the housing crisis with prices but I will also state that house prices can not go much lower. As proof' offer the simple truth discussed at length in last weeks article that the number of homes for sale in our market area are at the fewest number in 10 years. From last week's article from"2006 through 2010 home prices dropped dramatically and 'many home owners, who wanted to sell, could not afford to sell those year's market prices. As prices increase, more and more of these owners will come back on at Bonds, along with some more complex investments, such as options, are subject to default risk. If a company issues a bond that you've bought and that company runs into severe financial difficulties, or even goes bankrupt, it may default on its bonds, leaving you holding the bag. You can help protect against this risk by sticking with "in those that receive high vestment-grade" bonds from independent rating agencies such as ratings Standard & Poor's or Moody's. Liquidity risk Some investments, like real es tate, are harder to sell than others. Thus, real estate is considered more "illiquid" than many common - - investments. Make sure you understand what type of risk is as sociated with every investment you own. And try to avoid "overloading" your portfolio with too many investments with the same type of risks. Doing so will not result in a totally smooth journey through the investment world, butit may help eliminate some of the bumps along the way. .
