LIGHTING THE FUSE

PUBLISHER’S STATEMENT

The Berdan Effect Glass City ABCs, Part 2

T

here are a number of “big empties” dotting the Toledo landscape, but this summer has brought news of activity that should inspire cautious optimism. In June, the Eyde Company, Toledo City Council and the administration of Mayor Mike Bell began exploring the complicated funding systems that could transform the former Fiberglas Tower into the “Tower on the Maumee,” which could offer housing and retail space. It was recently reported that the Toledo-Lucas County Port Authority could transform the old Jeep plant’s 111acre site and clean it up for productive use. At an Aug. 25 Economic Development Committee meeting, councilman Rob Ludeman led a discussion with Brad Peebles, commissioner of economic development, on the efforts of Landmark Management of Cleveland to rehabilitate the Berdan Building on Washington Street. Thomas F. POUNDS As reported by Lisa Renee Ward at Glass City Jungle, “Landmark RE Management of Cleveland [is] interested in re-developing the Berdan Building … to make it high-end market-rate apartment units.” Many of the same issues involved with the “Tower on the Maumee” are involved with the Berdan Building: historic tax credits, federal Section 108 funding, HUD loans, the Brownfields Economic Development Initiative and other sources of funding. There are questions about how much authority council and the city have to utilize some of these funding sources. And while some might wonder if there is enough demand for Downtown housing to justify the work and city involvement, it should be agreed that even the consideration for such investment is a positive sign and an indicator that the slow but encouraging growth of Downtown continues. Yes, there are still some “big empties” to deal with — the riverfront steam plant remains one of the region’s most frustrating examples — but the relative flurry of activity this summer shows there is great behind-the-scenes action starting to come to light. How much city and taxpayer involvement is warranted will have to be determined case-by-case, but for now, at least the wheels are turning and the rust is being shaken off. The Tower, Jeep Plant and now the Berdan Building could greatly benefit from this development, which means the city and its citizens will have opportunities as well. We encourage Bell, Ludeman and Council to aggressively pursue these projects and focus on partnering with the private sector to make these plans and visions a renaissance of reality. Thomas F.

ade versus Iott, a 2008 civil case filed in Franklin County Common Pleas Court, raises questions about statements reportedly made by Ohio 9th District Congressional candidate Richard Iott. The complaint language states that five college students entered into a lease agreement with Ian Iott, with his father Richard as a co-signer. There was a planned move-in date for the fall 2008 semester at The Ohio State University. In August 2008, it appears Ian Iott wanted to be removed from the lease. Richard Iott communicated with one of his son’s roommates, Jared Wade, via e-mail. The e-mail sent by Iott to Wade reportedly made statements that were described as “unacceptable threats and comments” in a complaint filed Sept. 3, 2008. “In addition to anticipatorily breaching their obligations to Plaintiffs, and despite their obligations of good faith and fair dealing to Plain-

The Iott campaign was contacted via the e-mail address that they state media is to use and an e-mail was sent to Richard Iott’s personal e-mail address, and the campaign has not responded.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Case against UT dismissed, but outcome not reported TO THE EDITOR, I might begin this letter by asking “Do you remember this?” It was the summer of 2007 and The Blade was giving its “Tom Noe Treatment” to the University of Toledo with a barrage of daily and wildly overemphasized stories about misdeeds in the athletic department brought to its attention by an “undercover reporter,” disgruntled employee Suzette Fronk, who was claiming dismissal and harassment as a “whistleblower” for bringing all kinds of egregious practices to the attention of one of America’s great newspapers. The flurry of Blade stories and dozens of column inches, billed by the paper as “exposés” of practices within the athletic department deemed almost criminal and highly unethical, sullied the good names of team coaches, doctors and faculty athletic representatives, especially that of director Michael O’Brien, whose “secret e-mail” to a Blade executive was supposedly a critical piece of evidence of wrongdoing. Because I had been employed by UT for nearly 30 years as an athletic department representative and was thoroughly familiar with many of the practices being excoriated by The Blade, I sought out Toledo Free Press as the avenue to let Toledoans know that its daily newspaper was making much ado about nothing out of the ordinary to anyone remotely familiar with intercollegiate athletics. My efforts to defend Mr. O’Brien and his coaches were the subject of a July 22, 2007 cover story, in which I was dubbed “Mad Max.” Well, three years later, “Mad Max” is writing again, this time

to let the public know that those I defended have been completely vindicated by the Ohio Court of Claims in a suit brought by The Blade’s “undercover reporter,” Ms. Fronk, and to ask why, as of Sept. 2, one of America’s great newspapers has reported nary a word about the outcome of the case. In a 15-page decision published Aug. 20, 2010, by Judge Joseph T. Clark, Ms. Fronk’s case for liability against the University of Toledo was rejected and judgment rendered in favor of the defendant, UT, with all court costs assessed against the plaintiff, Ms. Fronk. The Blade’s heroine in the case, Ms. Fronk, testified that she was wrongfully discharged and that her privacy had been violated by UT publishing false statements about her, which she alleged were highly offensive and caused her to be viewed in a false light. However, the court found that Ms. Fronk “has failed to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that she was, in fact, discharged.” The court also found that Ms. Fronk had “failed to prove that the actions taken by UT amount[ed] to discipline.” Citing numerous examples of case law, the court found that Ms. Fronk’s charges “did not constitute an actionable claim for violation of public policy.” “This court is not inclined to create or recognize a cause of action for harassment in violation of public policy based upon these facts,” reads the decision. Regarding Ms. Fronk’s charges that The Blade’s publishing of Mr. O’Brien’s “secret e-mail” to Blade executive Joe Zerbey had cast her in a false light, the court found that phrases used in the e-mail did not rise to the level of being highly offensive

to a reasonable person. The court also found that Ms. Fronk’s testimony regarding the e-mail correspondence was “disingenuous inasmuch as plaintiff admitted that she initiated contact with newspaper reporters and provided them the details of her employment dispute.” And as for Ms. Fronk’s argument that Mr. O’Brien’s e-mail comments about her were defamatory, the court cited Ohio case law to find that “the two comments made by O’Brien, even if they could be considered highly offensive to plaintiff, are clearly O’Brien’s opinions and not factual statements.” In conclusion, the court found that “plaintiff (Ms. Fronk) has failed to prove that she was discharged or disciplined in violation of a public policy or that defendant (UT) invaded her privacy by placing her in a false light. Accordingly, judgment shall be rendered in favor of defendant. With respect to the court’s decision, defendant’s motion to dismiss is denied as moot.” Thanks to Toledo Free Press for allowing me to bring public attention to how The Blade continues to manipulate news in this metropolitan area by overemphasizing the negative and then by underreporting (or in this case not reporting at all) news that leaves egg on its face.

EDUCATION

By Kristen Rapin TOLEDO FREE PRESS SPECIAL SECTIONS EDITOR krapin@toledofreepress.com

The people behind two competing review committees say they have the same goal: achieving the best education for every child in the Toledo Public Schools (TPS) district. On Aug. 25, a group of 10 area organizations challenged the TPS Board of Education to sanction a committee of area professionals to perform an “indepth and independent review” of the district. Board president Bob Vasquez proposed the idea of assembling a similar committee independent of TPS to examine the district’s procedures in June. Both would have individuals from outside the district review TPS policies and make recommendations to the board of education on how to improve the district. Additionally, both aim for a more efficient TPS system that provides a quality education in every setting to every child in the district.

JOHN JONES IS PRESIDENT AND CEO OF THE GREATER TOLEDO URBAN LEAGUE.

Challenging the board In May, after the Greater Toledo Urban League (GTUL) took a stand against a TPS levy, individuals and organizations started talking about the need for change within TPS, said John Jones, GTUL president and CEO. “People started popping out of the woodwork and that’s when we started coalescing,” he said. “Not just individuals, but organizations. People were basically saying ‘Enough is enough. If we don’t do something to help our young folks, what are we going to do?’” The groups began discussing what they could do “collectively and proactively as part of the community” to help drive discussions, Jones said. After a few meetings, facilitated by the GTUL, the groups developed a joint statement about the state of the TPS. The statement, delivered at an Aug. 25 press conference, called for a board-chartered committee autonomous of the school district to perform a review of TPS. “Every one of these groups, in one shape or another, I believe, has expressed frustration in their dealings with TPS and many had offered to be part of the solution,” said Steven Flagg, member of the Urban Coalition, one organization involved in the statement. “This was our opportunity to challenge [the board] to be accountable, justify or say why suggestions weren’t effective. It was done in spirit of cooperation, to be a productive process. “Times have changed. It’s time we look at how we can be effective in this nanosecond world.”

BRINGING THE FLAVORS OF

Additional organizations involved in the joint statement include: AfricanAmerican Bureau of Commerce, African-American Parents Association, Cherry Street Mission Ministries, Toledo NAACP, Toledo Area Ministries, Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce, United North and United Pastors for Social Empowerment. “It’s a good broad cross section of our city,” said Carol Van Sickle, vice president of public affairs for the chamber of commerce. “We all, all the people in those groups, feel it’s very important to support good education in TPS. We’re having challenges as many metro school district are. We need to look at things long term and work together to get the best education we can for the children.” The group said its decision to make a joint statement does not have to do with a 7.8 mill levy on the November ballot, or the $824,000 that was “found” the previous day. “This is way beyond the levy,” Jones said. The organizations would like the committee that is established to do an extensive review of the district, examining curriculum, union contracts, the use of buildings, size of the administration and finances, Jones said. An example of what it would examine is curriculum efficiency and how minor changes to procedure could allow teachers to be more efficient in the classroom, saving costs elsewhere, Jones said. “Let’s look at everything and see what’s going to be that tipping point

that causes us to move in the right direction, positively,” he said. The committee would require individuals from a vast array of skill sets, all of which Toledo has, Jones said. The groups are asking the board to sanction a committee, but aren’t trying to take its power, Jones said. “It’s not an effort to abdicate authority or ask the board to abdicate their authority by no stretch. We want you to use your authority, get engaged, get involved, make sure that process is ushered through to completion,” he said. Although the group is asking for a committee, it does not want board members or district staff to be on the committee. The groups are also calling for all committee members to be “free of financial or other relationships that pose a conflict of interest” with the district. “Should the institution be responsible solely themselves to review themselves? That don’t work,” Jones said. Jones noted, however, that some institution involvement may be necessary. Jones also said defining conflict of interest may be difficult. “Let’s be honest about this. You have a $300 million organization; who in Toledo ain’t got a piece of that pie? Full disclosure, the Urban League has a program in the summer that gets a small amount of money from the district to do it — about $3,000,” Jones said. “Would that $3,000 be considered a conflict of interest in the scope of $300 million? I would say no, but the flip of that is

how do you really determine it?” Jones said committee members should be picked based on their skill set and if there is a conflict of interest they should remove themselves from the discussion. “For instance, my wife’s a teacher, so if I were on the committee, and I’m not asking to be, I’d probably need to recuse myself from the discussion of a union contract,” he said. “Would I be able to have a discussion about a review of actual finances, like finding $824,000 somewhere? I probably could because I have an auditing background. It’s those types of things we’d have to walk through.” The organizations involved in the public statement are not suggesting they be the committee the board appoints, Jones said. As a collective, the 10 groups did not talk to any board members before making their announcement, Jones said. The group did meet briefly to discuss with Superintendent Jerome Pecko what some of the community concerns are. Jones said the groups were aware that Vasquez made a statement in June about forming a review committee. “Vasquez had already said he wanted to see a committee formed. We agree with that,” he said. “As we were talking in May and he said that early June we were like, ‘Hey, that’s a winner ,thumbs up.’ The question then becomes how this committee is formed, what are they commissioned to do and is it really all-inclusive?” ■ TPS CONTINUES ON A7

Getting Help for Anxiety Everyone gets nervous or anxious once in a while – before a big event, a job interview or a test. But if you have constant, overwhelming feelings of panic or other distress, you might suffer from an anxiety disorder. The term “anxiety disorder” is fairly broad and includes panic attacks, obsessive compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, social anxiety disorder, phobias, and other psychological problems. All can cause distress that interferes with your ability to lead a normal life. Someone with an anxiety disorder might feel panic, fear or uneasiness during normal, everyday activities. They may have uncontrollable thoughts, nightmares or flashbacks of traumatic experiences. Many have trouble sleeping, which makes it harder to function during the day. Anxiety sufferers might also have physical symptoms like cold sweats, shortness of breath, nausea, heart palpitations, or dizziness.

Vasquez’s plan Vasquez was taken aback when the groups announcement that the board needed to create an outside committee. “I am surprised they took the same idea that I had and asked for it again,” he said. “The other thing that surprises me even more is that John Jones is on my committee.” Vasquez hosted a meeting of approximately 20 area business leaders and higher education staff Aug. 26 to discuss solutions for TPS, he said. Individuals were asked to attend one week prior by e-mail, Vasquez said. Jones said he was at the meeting but was under the impression it was a discussion and not a committee yet. If a committee does result from the discussions and if it gets it right, it will pay for the century to come, Jones said. “I believe there are a couple of different ways to get to a spot ... What I would hope is the discussion spurred is a community feel that backs up what we already know. We need to dig in and get this thing right and there has to be some change. The model that currently exists for Toledo is not sustainable,” he said. “I could care less who participates. At the end of the day, let’s get something done,” Jones said. Vasquez hopes to have the group meet again to discuss a possible setup for a committee, define and expand the mission and decide how to proceed, he said. Once those details are decided, Vasquez would like to bring his committee to the board for approval.

Vasquez has support from three other board members for his committee and hopes to have it sanctioned within the next month, he said. The next meeting of business professionals is tentatively scheduled for Sept. 9, with Mayor Mike Bell leading the meeting, he said. Jen Sorgenfrei, public information officer for the city, confirmed the mayor will be involved. “Everyone in that room sees value in TPS and participating in the success in TPS,” she said. Sorgenfrei noted, however, that a formal request for the mayor to be part of a committee has not been made yet. Vasquez has been working since June to bring business leaders to the table to help reorganize TPS, he said. He’s spoken at business luncheons and at the Toledo Rotary requesting assistance. Members of the group he’s established include chamber of commerce members and University of Toledo President Dr. Lloyd Jacobs. Vasquez plans to do a complete review of the district focusing on three main parts. In the first part, the committee will look at the structure of the district—who reports to who and what are the positions’ responsibilities, Vasquez said. Second, the committee needs to look at how the district provides services, he said. The committee will need to look at curriculum and how that meets the needs of current and future students, Vasquez said. Last, the district needs to look at finances and compare how the district finances things in relation to other districts, he said.

Visit www.toledofreepress.com m “I’m not looking for a study or strategic plan. I want to get the information that we need and make changes that we need to right away,” Vasquez said. Vasquez said he hopes to use the business leaders as a steering committee and eventually reach out to other organizations within the region for their input, he said. The major difference between what he and the groups are proposing is the involvement of the district in the committee, Vasquez said. In Vasquez’s committee, the superintendent, the treasurer and Vasquez are all members. “Dr. Pecko and Dan Romano are part of the committee so they know what the suggestions are, because they are part of implementing whatever recommendations that come out of the committee,” Vasquez said. Having a board member, the superintendent and the treasurer present also saves time, he said. The trio have the institutional knowledge and the policy knowledge to know whether or not something can be done, he said. “We talked about online classrooms. The superintendent, Mr. Foley, had to share a certain number of hours [teachers] have to have with students face-to-face. I didn’t know that and I’m sure the general public doesn’t know that,” Vasquez said. “This doesn’t mean we can’t do things, we just need to have that information so we can make good recommendations,” he said. Vasquez also emphasized his committee is separate from the levy. “We’re interested in long-term transformation change. It’s no trick or

It is important for people suffering from anxiety to realize that mental illness is not their fault. Anxiety disorders can be caused by chemical imbalances in the part of the brain that controls mood and memory. If you think you might be suffering from an anxiety disorder, talk to your family physician. Anxiety disorders are highly treatable, and a mental health professional can offer you treatment options including medication, therapy or lifestyle changes.

VASQUEZ anything for the levy,” he said. “I’m not politicizing this committee. That’s why I was not out having a press conference for the meeting. I wasn’t looking for the media,” he said. Both Vasquez and Jones said there is a sense of urgency to help TPS, but it doesn’t mean the committees are going to work haphazardly. In addition to possible committees to review TPS operations, the Ohio Auditor;s office just began its yearly audit of TPS. All recommendations made by any committee that is formed must be voted on by the school board before suggestions are implemented.

POLITICS

Kaptur, Iott, Jaffe to debate on Oct. 11 From Staff Reports A Columbus Day debate among the candidates running for the 9th Congressional District seat will take place Oct. 11. Democrat Rep. Marcy Kaptur and her challengers — Republican Rich Iott and Libertarian Joseph Jaffe — will attend a debate sponsored by Toledo Free Press and broadcasted live on FOX Toledo. KAPTUR The event will be blogged live at Glass City Jungle. A limited number of tickets will be available for the debate.

Kaptur was first elected to the 9th District seat in 1982 and has since become a member of the Agriculture, Transportation/Housing and Urban Development and Defense Congressional subcommittees. “The American people have always met the great challenges. I will continue working to build an America that is strong at home and respected abroad,” she stated on her website. IOTT Iott wants to reduce Washington’s involvement in taxation and borrowing money from overseas. “Amer-

ican workers and American entrepreneurs are the most productive and innovative in the world… they can do anything they set their mind to doing as long as Washington stops throwing financial and regulatory roadblocks in their way,” he told Toledo Free Press. Iott was the president and CEO of Food Town Supermarkets until 2000 when the company merged with Spartan Foods. He also serves in the JAFFE Ohio Military Reserve. Jaffe’s family owns restaurant supplier Tyler Meat Company in Down-

town Toledo’s warehouse district. Jaffe does different jobs for the business, including driving a delivery truck, working on assembly lines and working in management.

“I have a pretty good perspective of both sides [of a business],” he told Toledo Free Press, explaining that he thinks Congress needs more “career people” and fewer career politicians.

STORMING BACK

Blank continues Lake booster duties Editor’s note: Toledo Free Press will follow the Blank family of Millbury for the next year as they rebuild their lives after a June 5 tornado destroyed their Main Street home. By Brandi Barhite TOLEDO FREE PRESS ASSOCIATE EDITOR bbarhite@toledofreepress.com

As Ed Blank rebuilds his family’s life, he also o finds time to help his son’s tornado-ravaged d high school. Ed is a trustee on the Lake Athleticc Boosters, which has been scrambling to comee up with a plan to pay its debt. The club depends on fundraising with h BLANK the bulk of the $25,000 to $30,000 it raisess annually coming from concessions, ac-cording to treasurer Tom Steedman. Unfor-tunately, the tornado could put a dent into o profits, he said. In addition to destroying the high school,l, the June 5 tornado ruined the visitor’s conces-sion stand. For the first home football game Sept. 3 and those that follow, the boosters will sell concessions on the home side and will likely sell on the away side with a makeshift station. “We are trying to get our ducks in a row,” Blank said. “Concessions are how we raise money. We just built that big track barn and we didn’t anticipate being hit by a tornado.” A $262,000 barn was built for the track and soccer teams and was not damaged by the tornado. The barn includes a press box, concession area, bathrooms and storage. Steedman said the boosters has a “sizeable loan through a local bank and we aren’t going to be driving concessions that we are used to.” So far, the loan for the barn has been paid down to about $125,000, said boosters president Kurt Johnson. “We have done pretty well and we saved a fair amount of

money. We can survive for this year,” he said. Subsequent years could get tricky, though, because of uniform costs. Generally, Lake Athletic Boosters pays for the replacement of athletic uniforms. But because all the uniforms were destroyed in June, the replacement of them will come at the same time instead of being staggered. “Before the tornado, we committed $5,000 a year to uniforms and the rest was to $ pay p off the building,” Johnson said. The club is also worried about home basketball games. The high school’s temb porary home in an Owens Community p College building doesn’t have a gymnaC Fortunately, Owens has offered the s FAMILY: sium. use u of its main campus for games, but the boosters will have to bring the concessions b to t and from the games. “It is not going to be fun. It is going to be interesting, ” Johnson said. “We are trying to i get g through fall sports first.” The booster members also plan to have their reverse raffle in March, deh spite losing some of the necessary equipment to the tornado. It will also run its 200 Club raffle during basketball season. Blank is organizing a golf outing for Oct. 10, which will benefit the boosters’ account as it “suffers with the transition we will encounter over the next two years or so,” he said in an e-mail. The community has helped, too. The boosters at Bowsher, Perrysburg and Liberty Benton donated money. Alan Miller Jewelers is organizing a fundraiser, which includes a prize of jewelry. While boosters membership has remained steady at 150, more people are getting involved and not just because of the tornado, Johnson said. Membership is $25 or $50, depending on the level selected.

BEER OF THE MONTH

Gut Bier, Ja? Warsteiner Pilsner Bier has been brewed in a little town in the heart of Germany since 1753. It has been the absolute dominating brand among all German beers for many years. The German Purity Law of 1516 dictates this beer is brewed with no chemicals, additives or preservatives. Pouring a light straw color it has a smooth, rich full bodied taste wrapped in a thick creamy head. The ingredients lend themselves to the smooth taste with its forest spring water, tworow malted summer barley and all German hops. This beer is perfect for lazy summer days because of its clean, crisp flavors and a refreshing hop finish with no aftertaste. Warsteiner Pilsner tastes best when chilled to a temperature between 46 and 50 degrees. As the dog days of summer approach what could be more appealing than a light dinner accompanied by the refreshing light taste of an icy cold Warsteiner Pilsner Bier.

Orphanage hosts reunion; Center of Hope open house planned By Kristen Rapin TOLEDO FREE PRESS SPECIAL SECTIONS krapin@toledofreepress.com

Thousands of children spent portions of their childhood at the Miami Children’s Center, formerly the Lucas County Children’s Home, during its 100-year existence. The orphanage closed 24 years ago and those who were once residents of the home are hosting a reunion Sept. 11. “The orphanage may be gone, but it had a big impact on a lot of lives,� said Christine Parra (Almanza), chairwoman for the reunion. Parra and five of her brothers and sisters lived in the Miami Children’s Center growing up in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The Lucas County Children’s Home opened its Maumee location in 1886 and operated at 2500 River Road from 1887 to 1960 when it was renamed Miami Children’s Center. The center closed in 1986. During its operation the or-

phanage had numerous buildings and a farm, Parra said. Children who lived in the orphanage or individuals who worked at the home are invited to attend the reunion. Parra urges those who may attend to bring any pictures from while they were at the orphanage, or any articles about the home. “So many people have memories, whether good or bad about the orphanage. Whether it was a sad thing or relief to go to the center,� she said. This is the orphanage’s third reunion, the first coinciding with the dedication of an Ohio Historical Marker in 2008. The marker was dedicated to remember all the children whose lives were affected by the center, said Jack Paquette, former resident of the home. “If you go to where the state historical marker is and look to the left, all you see are modern houses. Without the marker there is no evidence of an institution having been

there for 100 years,� he said. Paquette lived in the Lucas County Children’s Home during the 1930s and wrote about the orphanage in a chapter of his book, “A Boy’s Journey through the Great Depression.� Paquette, who lived in the home from the age of 8 until he was adopted at the age of 14, said living in the orphanage was positive for him. “My living conditions in East Toledo were so horrible that three meals a day and a warm bed to sleep in was a lifesaver,� he said. The reunion is at the Wolcott House Museum, 1035 River Road, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. Sept. 11. The Ohio Historical Marker commemorating the Lucas County Children’s Home/Miami Children’s Center is located at Maumee’s Fort Miami Elementary School, where the orphanage’s original playground once stood. To RSVP for the reunion, e-mail ChristineJParra@gmail.com.

Center of Hope invite-only open house Journey of the Heart Ministries’ CEO and Founder Mary Michel said that after a recent renovation that tripled the space of the Center of Hope, it’s ready to be a haven to women of all ages. “We’ve created this beautiful environment, like a refuge,� Michel said. The Center of Hope, located on South Byrne Road in Toledo, provides free one-on-one mentoring services for women of any background on a broad range of issues.. “Women come for different life issues, to gain new perspective, to learn how to embrace change and rediscover worth,� Michel said. The Center of Hope will hold an invitation-only open house to themedia and elected officials Sept. 9 from 4:30 to 7 p.m. “This is really our first opportunity to let the full community know what we’re doing,� Michel said. For information, call (419) 720-2446. — Amy Biolchini

‘America 911’ event A group of local artists will host an event, “America 911,� at The Ground Level Coffee Shop on Sept. 11. “It’s going to be an eclectic mix of artists —outsider artists,� said Stephen Daniel, owner of Shystie Films and an artist at the event. “We’re going to have some great acts and for $3, it’s the best night you’re going to have.� The event features experimental band Bastard Love Child and The Lesbian Commotion, fASTCLOUDS and Tranquil, plus films from Daniel and a puppet show from Thyme Studios. The majority of the art is more provocative and less mainstream, said Terry Burton, promoter of the event and member of Bastard Love Child and The Lesbian Commotion. The show is from 8 p.m. to midnight and is $3. For more information, visit www. myspace.com/oursocial. — Kristen Rapin

Imposter scams target Columbia Gas customers By Amy Biolchini TOLEDO FREE PRESS STAFF WRITER news@toledofreepress.com

Individuals posing as Columbia Gas employees left two area customers

embarrassed and angry after they were scammed into paying out hundreds of dollars in cash. Chris Kozak, communications manager for Columbia Gas of Ohio, said he believes different individuals

conducted the scams; however, the circumstances of each were strikingly similar. A Columbia Gas customer who resides on Starr Avenue in Oregon was recently approached at the door

Sun Dental and Dentures “We take the fear out of seeing the Dentist”

General, Reconstructive, Computer Computer-Guided Guided Implant Surgery, Surgery, and Cosmet Surgery Cosmetic Dentistry The All-on-4 ™ Technique is perfect for existing denture patients providing the following benefits: - Avoidance of sinus grafting - Immediate loading to the final prosthesis if desired - Can be utilized in edentulous and patients in need of extractions - Higher patient acceptance due to shortened cost and less treatment time - More affordable fixed screw retained prothesis prothesis

by an individual claiming to be with the company. The individual asked for $250 to restore gas service to the customer, of which the customer paid as much as possible: $242, in cash. The individual then promised the customer that after visiting the truck, to come back to turn the gas on, but never returned and left with the money, Kozak said. Several weeks prior, an Elm Street resident was also approached by an individual claiming to be with Columbia Gas. Kozak said the individual demanded $200 to keep the customer’s gas on, which the customer paid. After the customer discovered an outstanding balance with Columbia Gas, the customer realized the scam. “Every once in a while we get stories like this,” Kozak said. “Everyone

needs to be on their toes.” According to Kozak, it is company policy to never ask for cash at the door. Columbia Gas employees always carry identification cards and drive in clearly marked vehicles. “Ask questions,” Kozak said. “We want to protect our customers.” Payments to Columbia Gas are only made on weekdays via phone or at payment centers. If customers feel uncomfortable or uneasy when a representative visits their home, Kozak advised calling the police or the gas company with a detailed description of the person and their vehicle. “In this economy, it’s understandable people will have outstanding bills. Before anyone gets in that state of disconnect, call and we’ll help you pay your bill,” Kozak said.

CLIENT KARLIE JOHNSON HAS HER HAIR STYLED BY ALINA DUNBAR AT SALON ONYX.

Salon Onyx beautifies Downtown By Candice Harrison TOLEDO FREE PRESS STAFF WRITER news@toledofreepress.com

Walking through the doors of Salon Onyx, clients may feel as if they have entered a well-decorated “loft-style” apartment featured on one of the popular home improvement television shows. That is, until they notice uniquely placed salon-grade hair dryers stylishly hanging from the walls, trendy washbowls, a relaxing massage room, nail booths and Vichy services. At that point, it is clear that they have entered Toledo’s newest luxury, full-service salon and spa. Salon Onyx is located in the Davis DUNBAR Building, 123 N. Michigan Ave., in Downtown Toledo. The Davis Building is also home to Sophie’s Sister, The Paula Brown Shop and Suite Vibrations. Owner Alina Dunbar, a Toledo native and DeVilbiss High School graduate, has been in the hair industry for 21 years. She started as a shampoo assistant prior to starting before becoming a stylist. She moved to Chicago briefly, then returned to Toledo and began working in commissioned high-end salons, such as the former Jacobson’s and The Lion Store, now operating as Dillard’s. She credits her savvy in coloring and cutting hair of various textures to her experience at those high-end salons, which she describes as her “forte.” Dunbar has been a business owner for 15 years, most recently in a partnership. She believes the time had come to

offer Toledo something fresh and new. “I was inspired to open in the Downtown Toledo area because I always wanted to be a part of the revitalization of Downtown,” she said. “There are so many new businesses opening, I felt that opening Salon Onyx would be a great way to do that. I am impressed with the flow and energy of Downtown and love the big-city feel.” What was once a vision of bringing cutting-edge multi-ethnic hair trends to Downtown Toledo is now a reality and available for clients to come and enjoy. “We want clients of all types to come in and experience our services. We want it to be a place that definitely projects diversity,” Dunbar said. “Salon Onyx is different because when you enter our doors, we are committed to meeting the needs of our clients. They can expect a high level of ethics and professionalism as well as an upscale atmosphere each time they visit us.” The term “onyx” is known by most people as a black stone found in jewelry. But, to Dunbar it is much more than that. “Onyx is actually of many different colors, and it also helps to increase our grounding and productivity It is so much more than what people know of it,” she said. Dunbar has a grand vision for the future of Salon Onyx. “We are hoping to reach all people and I envision Salon Onyx being a stone to energize and make clients feel good about themselves,” she said. “We see it continuing to grow in the future.” Salon Onyx is searching for experienced, professional stylists looking to join a cutting-edge styling team.” For further information about Salon Onyx, contact Dunbar at (419) 243- 6699.

More businesses are banking with Key. Shouldn’t you?

hough many try, in our business it’s extremely hard to ignore politics. Aside from being difficult, it can also be expensive. After all, government policy has a tremendous impact on economics, which in turn influences the global financial markets. As we’ve written before, generally speaking we try to remove ourselves from our own political opinions while analyzing investments. Unfortunately, we can’t ignore them completely. To do so would be to ignore one of the biggest factors impacting the investment world. However, while we have our own opinions, we also recognize that when analyzing the current political or economic atmosphere, our opinions simply don’t make a difference. This has nothing to do with whether our views align with the current Dock David TREECE party in power. It is simply necessary that we understand that our own opinions are of no consequence, and we need to take an objective view of the world. Each and every day, market prices are determined by consensus. Though the market continues to reach this consensus, we have been seeing markets become increasingly divided — just like the current political situation in this country. As in Washington, people on Wall Street are tending toward extremes. Today, some argue that we are in the midst of the most severe depression since the 1930s, while others argue that we are on the verge of one of the fiercest bull markets in a generation. It might seem strange, but these forecasts are strongly influenced by political beliefs. Beliefs, not in what politicians in Washington should do, but how circumstances will likely play out because of what’s already been done. Across history, the vast majority of the time this country is relatively centrist, politically speaking. At different times in history, though, the U.S. can become torn between extremes. This seems to be one of those times. Further, the extreme opinions on politics are also impacting people’s view of the economy and markets. For an example of the division currently facing our country, look no further than Glenn Beck’s Aug. 28 rally at the Lincoln Memorial. Just as importantly, explore the differing reactions people have to that event. It’s important to understand the factors weighing on the world today, but just as important is where we go from here. Some say revolution or a second civil war. These are so unlikely that they’re hardly worth considering. Through history, while extreme opinions sometimes come to dominate political or business climates, they always back to the center. This theory of mean reversion applies across a great deal of disciplines, from meteorology and chemistry to sociology and philosophy. Thankfully, it also applies to economics, politics and finance. Each of these subjects is the study of either people or the world around us, both of which have natural equilibriums that exist. Despite the occasionally extreme conditions which occur, these equilibriums tend to be sought out.

THE RETIREMENT GUYS

Learn from info that will affect your family’s financial future

W

hat do you think of what is going on in our country these days? The Retirement Guys spoke at a recent conference of financial advisers and also had the opportunity to listen to several interesting and informative speakers. One of the speakers spoke about watching a reporter from one of the top news networks interviewing an 80-year-old lady. The lady was out working in her garden, and the reporter approached

and asked the elderly woman if it was OK to ask her a question. The woman agreed and the reporter asked, “What do think of what is going on in our country today?” The woman replied, “I think it is the most wonderful thing that has ever happened in our country.” The reporter lost her composure and actually did an obvious double-take when she heard the response to her question. She was so surprised that she asked the question again. The lady

repeated her answer, “I think it is the most wonderful thing that has happened in our country.” The reporter asked why she would say that. The lady replied, “Because it is time for Americans to take responsibility for their own lives.” We utilize strategies that we believe will have a great effect on our client’s financial future. Strategies such as Roth IRA’s, cash value life insurance, Mark and 529 plans. We feel it is important Nolan to stay informed on what is going on in the world and in our country, and how it may affect our clients. If you don’t understand this information, your family’s financial future could be in jeopardy. What are you talking about, you ask? Consider for a minute what is going on in the world and our own country. Ask yourself a couple key questions. First, do you think taxes are going up in the future, yes or no? Second, do you think benefits will be reduced in the future, yes or no? The concern here is whether the government will have enough money to go around to solve all of our problems. We have already seen massive bailouts and the money is going to have to come from somewhere. The folks who will pay for this are the taxpayers. The

disturbing thing is that according to a Tax Facts report from the Tax Policy Center, only 53 percent of single filers and 72 percent of married filers actually pay tax. Let’s look at government benefits for a moment. If you are receiving Social Security and look closely at the statement, you will notice that it says that Social Security will go into negative cash flow by 2016. The govCLAIR ernment has been using Social Security BAKER surplus to pay down our deficit. We pointed out in our “Social Insecurity” column a few weeks ago, Social Security is actually going to go into negative cash flow this year! If Social Security is heading toward bankruptcy, $14.5 trillion liability, do you think it will be fixed? We would say it is very probable, but at what cost? This will likely mean higher taxes. According to The Washington Post, Medicare has unfunded liabilities that exceed $30 trillion. Considering Social Security and Medicare liabilities, which will be easier to fix? If we are going to have a hard time fixing Social Security, how will we fix Medicare? The biggest age group we have in our society are those considered “baby boomers.” How many baby boomers are on Medicare? If we consider that

they were born between 1946 and 1964 and qualification for Medicare is at age 65, that would mean zero. Having unfunded liabilities for Medicare in the trillions of dollars and considering we have not begun to pay for the baby boomers yet is scary. The consequences again will probably mean higher taxes. What does this mean for you? It means as the 80-year-old lady said, “taking responsibility for your own life.” We deal with many folks with retirement accounts. Typically, a large portion of the typical retiree’s savings is in an IRA, 401(k), 403b or some type of retirement account. In a traditional retirement account, the money has yet to be taxed. If taxes are going up in the future, it may be important to create a distribution plan now to help reduce or eliminate taxes. If the taxes on these accounts are not dealt with now, they will be dealt with later, which could have a disastrous result. Take advantage of what the current tax laws are now before they change.

unhappy. The decisions that were made Sept. 1 took into account the whole conference because the Big Ten is more than just Ohio State and Michigan. The fan reaction was like that of a child, throwing a tantrum when they did not get their way. There has been a standing consensus nationally that Big Ten football is stuck in the stone age of college football. Other conferences are on the cutting edge while the Big Ten is not. The expansion helped change that perception and vaulted the conference into modern football. But the fans’ reaction these past few weeks proved then even as the Big Ten tries to evolve, the fans may never let it happen. This situation was not about purposely breaking a tradition. To me, it was always about moving forward. It was about growing. It was and still is about moving towards the future of college football. It was these angry fans, who are stuck in time and averse to change, that have held back the conference and its football programs from evolving. It was time to embrace the future, Buckeye and Wolverine fans. It was time to stop being a collective wet blanket and accept the inevitable change. With the conference expansion, here was that opportunity. I just can’t help and wonder when will these fans shake their “3 yards and a cloud of dust� mentality?

Chrysler dealers hear plans to sell Fiat minicars DETROIT (AP) — Chrysler on Aug. 30 told 400 dealers about its plans to bring the Fiat brand back to the U.S. after a 30-year absence, starting with the Fiat 500 minicar later this year. Fiat-run Chrysler Group LLC wants the bulb-shaped 500 to become a strong contender in the U.S. small-car market, where the Detroit automaker has struggled for years. The car will be sold by about 165 Chrysler Group dealers in 125 mainly big-city markets starting in December. Chrysler hopes the tiny Italian car will help its lackluster sales. Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep dealers who gathered in Detroit on Aug. 30 are being asked to build separate showrooms and have separate sales and service staffs for the cars. Chrysler

wants to create a distinctive European aura for the 500. Dealers have until Sept. 22 to apply for Fiat franchises. Chrysler said it will select its dealers in the fourth quarter. The car will come in standard, convertible, high-performance and electric versions. Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne, who was given control of Chrysler after it emerged from bankruptcy last year, turned around Fiat in five years as CEO. He is hoping to work the same magic with Chrysler. But he won’t be able to turn around the company with the 500 alone. Sales of minicars like the Toyota Yaris, Honda Fit and Ford Fiesta make up only about 5 percent of U.S. car sales. But the 500 can draw in customers and lend its European sophistication

AAA: Ohio gas prices up 5 cents from Aug. 23 COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio gasoline prices have risen a nickel since Aug. 23 as a rally on the stock market helped push oil prices higher. The current survey from auto club AAA, the Oil Price Information Service and Wright Express puts the state’s average price for regular-grade gasoline at $2.62 per gallon, up from $2.57 Aug. 23. The current Ohio price is 6 cents lower than the national average. Oil prices jumped after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said the central bank would step in if the U.S. economy showed further signs of weakening. His comments helped investors feel more positive, sending the Dow industrials up 1.7 percent Aug. 27. Ahead of the Labor Day holiday weekend one year ago, Ohioans paid $2.50 for regular gas, on average.

september 5, 2010 n FIAT CONTINUED FROM A18 Dealers chosen for Fiat dealerships will also get the first crack at selling Alfa Romeos when that Fiat-owned brand returns to the U.S. market in 2012. Dealers also saw some future Fiat models, but Chrysler wouldn’t comment on what they saw. Fiat last sold cars in the U.S. in 1983, but pulled out of the country

after a string of quality problems that gave it the nickname “Fix it Again Tony.’’ On one model, warranty repair costs wiped out any profits in the U.S. Until recently, Fiat had a similar reputation in Europe, but industry analysts say the company’s new models are vastly improved. The brand got low customer satisfaction scores in J.D. Power surveys in the U.K., Ger-

many and France this year, but the 500 scored well individually. Although Marchionne has narrowed Chrysler’s losses, it is still suffering from a lack of new models. Including lower-profit sales to fleet customers, such as rental-car companies, Chrysler’s U.S. sales are up 11 percent through July. The Fiat 500 will be built in Toluca, Mexico.

Chrysler says sales rise 7 percent over July DETROIT (AP) — Chrysler Group LLC says its August sales rose 7 percent over July as many of its models saw gains. The automaker's sales also increased 7 percent over August of 2009. But last year the company was just restarting factories after closing them during its stay in bankruptcy court. Chrysler got only a small sales boost last August from the government's Cash for Clunkers program. That program offered up to $4,500 in rebates for people to trade in older cars and trucks for more fuel-efficient models. Sales of the new Jeep Grand Cherokee nearly doubled over July. General Motors Co.’s August sales fell 7 from July, and an even sharper 25 percent from August of 2009, when sales were boosted by the government’s Cash for Clunkers rebates. Subaru, whose strong lineup of smaller cars benefited from clunkers last year, also suffered. Ford Motor Co. says its U.S. auto sales dipped 5 percent in August compared with July as consumers continued to hold off on big purchases. Ford’s sales dropped 11 percent over last August but that had been widely expected. Last August saw strong sales thanks to the government’s Cash for Clunkers program, which gave buyers up to $4,500 in cash to buy a more fuel efficient vehicle.

It would take a powerful personality — and some innocent audacity — to hijack an interview while talking with Barbara Walters. Cue Kaylee Halko. The bold 7-yearold from Moncolva was interviewed by the legendary journalist this past spring in New York City for a story set to air on ABC’s “20/20” at 10 p.m. Sept. 10. “Kaylee and Barbara went outside and talked,” said Tim Halko, Kaylee’s dad. “Barbara just made a comment afterward that Kaylee talked her ear off and kind of took over the piece and was actually asking her questions. “She has no idea who Barbara Walters is. She knows who she is now, but I don’t think her or the boys know exactly who she is and how long she’s been doing this.” Tim and his wife, Marla, and their children, Kaylee, T.J., Brendan and Jacob, traveled to the Big Apple the weekend of April 23-25 for the interview with Walters. “ABC approached us to do a story and originally they told us it would be a regular correspondent,” Tim said. “I guess Barbara Walters found out about it and she stepped in and said she wanted to handle this story.” Walters’ special report is titled “When 7 Looks Like 70 — A Race Against Time for Three Young Girls.” ABC released this description about the program: “What happens to a family when a child’s birth becomes a medical mystery? Barbara Walters reports on Kaylee Halko and Lindsay Ratcliffe, two vibrant young girls who suffer from a rapid aging disease called progeria, a fatal condition that

currently affects 68 known children in the world. The disease causes children to age at 10 times the normal rate. It is incredibly rare — occurring in only one in four to eight million births — and always fatal. On average, children die at the age of 13. Walters also interviews one of the oldest surviving children with progeria and explores the secrets of aging that her body may reveal.” Kaylee’s battle with progeria was documented in a 2009 TLC film, “6 Going on 60.” She also appeared on “The Dr. Oz Show” in February. She continues winning hearts. “[Walters] loved Kaylee,” Tim said. “Kaylee was telling her jokes and doing cheers.” “Kaylee wasn’t shy at all; she was just hamming it up,” Marla said. “I think that Kaylee had a good effect on [Walters]. She seemed to enjoy Kaylee.” “Kaylee is a delightful little girl, and I pray that the new research will prolong her life,” Walters said in a statement from ABC News to Toledo Free Press. “She and her family are a lesson to all of us about courage and devotion.” What did Kaylee think of Walters? “She was awesome!” Kaylee yelled. Marla agreed: “When we were doing the interview, it was really relaxing. I wasn’t really nervous because [Walters] was just so nice. She just puts you at ease.” The show will air as the Halkos wait to hear results from the first drug trial. “The trial team is working hard to analyze all the data, to make sure the information that gets out there is accurate and complete,” said Audrey Gordon, president and executive director of the Progeria Research Foundation. “We are hoping the results come out this year.”

Cost is $12 ($15 day of event) for the 5K run/2-mile walk; children 10 and younger are free. A silent auction also will be hosted, and there will be a raffle. Participants who register early will receive a T-shirt designed by Kaylee’s brother, T.J. Halko, 12. Proceeds from Kaylee’s Course will go to the Progeria Research Foundation Inc., a nonprofit organization dedicated to discovering treatments and a cure for the disease. During the past four years, the event has raised $170,000, according to Tim Halko, Kaylee’s father. “[My wife] Marla and I really appreciate the support we’ve received from the community,” he said. The Halkos are still looking for silent auction items and sponsorships. Contact Tim or Marla at tmhalko@msn.com or (419) 878-3231.

Ask The Expert Dear Doctor, I’m retired and do a lot of gardening. I recently tripped yesterday on some uneven ground in my yard and felt some pain in my left ankle. I noticed some swelling but it seems better today although there is still some soreness. Should I be concerned?

I

think what you are describing represents an ankle sprain. An ankle sprain is an injury to the ligaments of the ankle. The ligaments are Dr. Padanilam structures which An Orthopaedic Surgeon with support the ankle specialization in feet and help hold the and ankles with Toledo Orthopaedic Surgeons. He is joint together. An the Chief of the Division of ankle sprain can Foot and Ankle Orthopaedic vary in how severe Surgery at UTMC. it is. It can be a mild sprain with partial tearing of the ligaments. This usually causes mild discomfort and swelling, but will usually heal up without many problems. The ankle usually improves within a few days to a week. They are usually treated with rest, ice and gradual return to activity. Moderate and severe sprains are more signicant tearing of the ligaments in which patients have a hard time walking on the ankle after the injury and will notice a moderate to signicant amount of swelling and/ or bruising. If the swelling continues and is associated with difculty walking then evaluation by your physician is warranted. Most of the time ankle sprains can be treated with rest, ice, elevation and protection. One of the most important aspects of treatment is getting into a good physical therapy program.

Local groups compete for Pepsi grant “It’s certainly put us at the forefront of social engagement. I don’t think there’s been a program like this that has relied on the consumer base,” she said. Although Pepsi has not announced if it will continue the project into 2011, Pepsi Refresh has gained more popularity each month in 2010, Caruso said. “The public response has been overwhelming. Each month, the submission period fills up within a matter of minutes,” she said.

By Gail Burkhardt and Kristen Rapin Toledo Free Press Staff Writers news@toledofreepress.com

Organizations across the country hope to win thousands of dollars from Pepsi each month. Each month in 2010, the Pepsi Refresh Project will give away $1.3 million to people and organizations with ideas to better the world, using the money that PepsiCo otherwise would have spent on Super Bowl advertising. The monthly grants consist of two $250,000 awards, 10 $50,000 grants, 10 $25,000 grants and 10 $5,000 grants. One thousand entities can enter the competition each month and the top 100 vote-getters from each category are automatically entered into the competition for the next month. About 40 million votes across the country have been cast this year in the project from across the country, said Adrienne Caruso, a Pepsi spokeswoman.

Toledo-area contestants

Andrew’s Adventureland Memorial Playground has been entered to win a $50,000 grant from Pepsi. The project is headed by Amy Peterson who’s hoping to turn the field where her 11-yearold son died into a park. Andrew’s Adventureland Memorial Playground would feature a playground and picnic area so neighborhood children can enjoy the space.

“Voting is something that can quickly be done every day. Initially, it takes a couple minutes and you can be offline in a minute or two, once you’ve voted for a topic it automatically comes up on your profile for easy voting later,” Peterson said. Andrew VanHorn was found in a field near his home in South Toledo on July 13, 2009. The land where he was found, near Ventura Drive and Chorus Lane, has been zoned as a park for more than 30 years. “People hear Andrew’s story and they want to do something. This is one way to give back,” PeVANHORN terson said. “This is a way, every day they can spend a minute or two and it’s not costing them anything, but the end result could mean $50,000.” n PEPSI CONTINUES ON A22

A22 ■ TOLEDO FREE PRESS ■ PEPSI CONTINUED FROM A21 Peterson is working with the City to make sure the park has the appropriate support. In addition to Andrew’s Adventureland, this month multiple Toledo area organizations are going for grants. Imagination Station is asking for a $5,000 grant to fund outreach programs for 200 children in the Boys and Girls Club, and provide free memberships to 60 Boys & Girls Club families, said Anna Kolin, communications and public relations manager for Imagination Station. Kids Unlimited Toledo, which is going for $50,000, provides an afterschool program for 200 inner city children and a summer program for 300 children, said president Chris Amato. The Metroparks of the Toledo Area

is up for a $250,000 Pepsi Refresh grant. The money would help fund a natural outdoor playground for children at Wildwood Metropark. The park would feature two play areas, one for children ages infant to 5 and the other for children 5 to 12. My Seedlings, an organization that has worked to raise money after tornadoes destroyed parts of Lake Township, is in the contest for a $250,000 grant to form a nonprofit. The group hopes to use funds to establish a scholarship for Lake students who pursue a “green” career field, help tornado victims rebuild in a green-friendly manner and educate the community about green activities in the area. For more information about the group, visit www.myseedlings.org.

SEPTEMBER 5, 2010

profit organization that supports Bedford High School in Temperance, Mich., won a $250,000 grant from Pepsi to build a new weight room for the school. Like many of the Toledo organizations involved in the program, Mule Muscle used social media and other networking opportunities to gain votes, said Rebecca Regnier, the president of Mule Muscle and a 13abc reporter.

“It’s something that you have to work, work, work at,” she said. Mule Muscle entered the competition in April. Regnier called the first month a “learning curve” and said the organization pushed harder for votes in the ensuing months by using tools such as Facebook and e-mail, reaching out to fitness and other health organizations and telling others to get their friends to vote.

Most of the Toledo organizations are using similar tactics including teaming up with other organizations in the competition. One person gets 10 online votes a day, so groups can team up with nine other organization to share votes. But people can only vote once for a project each day. This month’s voting ends Sept. 30.

Metroparks opens nature photography exhibit Four nature photography exhibits open Sept. 4 at the National Center for Nature Photography inside Secor Metropark. “It’s more than just pretty pictures, but to inspire people to come out and enjoy the local natural areas,” said Scott Carpenter, director of public relations at Toledo Metroparks. “Most importantly, it showcases nature and the metroparks.” Karen Pugh said, gallery manager at Secor Metropark, said, “When you look closely at something, you can see it in new ways. When you appreciate something and learn more about it, you ultimately preserve and conserve it.” Visitors used to come to the metropark and stumble across the photography gallery, Pugh said. Now the gallery is a destination and draws an average of 8,000 to 9,000 visitors a year. The four new exhibits will be open for two months. Headlining the exhibit are 37 prints from noted photographer Howard Burkert, which are available for purchase. Burkert’s work is composed of landscape and wildlife photos taken locally and throughout North America. Adult participants from the Lucas County Board of Developmental Disabilities, who are learning nature photography, will have their photos on display as well. The Board of Developmental Disabilities partnered with Lott Industries to give the participants a chance to show their works in the “Lotts of Nature” exhibit. Other exhibits include photos from members of the Naturalists’ Camera Club of Toledo and the Toledo Photo Arts Club, featuring 50 close-up photographs of mushrooms taken by Bill Blanton. Director of photography at Secor Metropark, Art Weber will showcase 16 prints of autumn scenes taken on walks around the metroparks. Throughout the year, Pugh said the Secor Metropark hosts outdoor photography classes, as well as intro to photography workshops that begin indoors. The National Center for Nature Photography is free and open on weekends from noon to 5 p.m. It will host local artist Harold Roe when he gives a free presentation titled “Wanderings and Wonderings” at 2 p.m. Sept. 12. Roe is a four-time winner of the Ohio Wetlands Habitat Stamp competition, and is best known for his naturalistic paintings of birds. A former Navy seaman and traveler to Canada, Alaska, Africa and Australia, Roe has an established perspective as an outdoorsman. — Amy Biolchini

IN MEMORIAM: HELEN HUTT 83 YEARS OF SERVICE Aug. 25, 2010, Helen Hutt, a volunteer with the Greater Toledo Area Chapter of the American Red Cross for 83 years, and a volunteer in almost every line of service our organization has to offer, passed away on Aug. 24, at 97 years of age. Helen began her involvement with the Red Cross in 1927 when she became certified to teach swimming lessons and then went on to do so through her college years at Lake Erie College and later while obtaining her Master’s in Education at Columbia. When World War II came along, she volunteered her talents to the Army Special Services Recreation Unit and was immediately sent to the South Pacific to serve. In the 1950s and 1960s, she organized a “Learn to Swim” program for Port Clinton, children and the blind. Helen worked as a local disaster relief volunteer during the 1970s and then volunteered at Magruder Hospital recruiting blood donors and coordinating the Red Cross Hospital volunteers. Until last year, Helen attended Ottawa County Advisory Board meetings without fail. Her leadership throughout the years was invaluable to the success of the Ottawa County Branch Office - Greater Toledo Area Chapter of the American Red Cross. Throught the years, Helen received numerous honors, including the Clara Barton Volunteer Leadership Award. Memorable awards include receiving her 75year pin at the American National Red Cross office in March 2003. On Dec. 12, 2007, Helen was presented her 80 year service pin (the fifth pin made) by a senior vice president of the American National Red Cross at a surprise reception in her honor in Port Clinton. Helen was a great advocate of the American Red Cross and she will be greatly missed. It was our honor to have had her as a member of our American Red Cross family. At Helen’s request, donations can be made to the Greater Toledo Area Chapter of the American Red Cross - Ottawa County Branch Office, 1854 E. Perry St., Suite 600, Port Clinton, OH 43452.
