That, to me, is lost in the process. Those were my concerns.” To address those concerns, Toledo Free Press adjusted circulation and agreed to expand home delivery during the two weeks the notices would run. Last year, Toledo Free Press was the only publication to submit a bid and published the notices at a cost of $168,025. The results demonstrate Toledo Free Press can more than handle the job. Between 2009-12, the notices were published by The Blade at an average cost of $321,000. In those years, an average of $6.8 million in taxes was recouped each year between January and March following the publication of the notices, according to county records. The county paid The Blade $339,935 to run the notices in 2009, $287,135 in 2010, $347,272 in 2011 and $309,870 in 2012. Between January and March of the following years, delinquent taxes owed dropped $6.8 million in 2010, $6.4 million in 2011, $6.9 million in 2012 and $7.1 million in 2013.

she declined to say by whom — to reopen bidding after the bidding period had ended and Toledo Free Press’ bid had been revealed. To her credit, she said no. “I was definitely asked to reconsider, asked would I object to re-advertizing the bid or allowing this bidding to be reopened last year and I said, ‘No, I think we move forward,’” Lopez told Toledo Free Press earlier this year. “We had an eligible paper that met the qualifications, that had met the concerns from 2012. And the numbers had already been made public, so whoever would compete against that bid would know how to lowball them. You just can’t do that. That undermines the entire process of a public bid.” Lopez also noted last year’s numbers showed “good results.” “The numbers speak for themselves. We are saving money,” Lopez said. “It’s very hard to argue with that.” Lopez is right — the numbers do speak for themselves. Awarding this year’s bid to Toledo Free Press would save county taxpayers almost a quarter million dollars while delivering the same, if not better, results.
All local governments are experiencing a financial squeeze and taxpayers expect government entities to spend their money wisely. Lucas County faces overcrowding at an outdated jail that will need to be replaced in the near future and has unplanned expenses from the region’s water advisory this summer. There’s also the city’s recent decision to start charging most offenders under state laws rather than municipal ordinances — a move expected to save the city $4 million to $5 million a year, while costing the county the same amount. It seems fiscally irresponsible for the county to needlessly add to that burden by paying $213,000 more than necessary to publish these legal ads. We’re pleased Lopez has confidence in our ability to do the job and we believe we’ve earned the chance to run the list again. We trust the county commissioners will accept her recommendation.

Both mentioned their willingness to compromise in such a way as to make it abundantly clear that neither really was.

Three years ago, Candice Milligan was one of the people who planned Toledo’s first Transgender Day of Remembrance. The event was created to recognize transgender people from around the world who have been victims of violence and discrimination. This year, MILLIGAN Milligan came perilously close to being one of the names read during the event’s memorial service. Milligan was attacked and robbed by three men near 13th Street and Madison Avenue at 2:50 p.m. Nov. 3. According to a police report, Milligan was punched in the face, mouth and head, and her phone was taken from her hand. She was transported to Mercy St. Vincent Hospital, where she
stayed until Nov. 6. One of her alleged attackers, Christopher Temple, 20, has since been arrested and charged with aggravated robbery and felonious assault. Police still are trying to identify other people involved in the assault. Milligan declined to speak to media until after Temple’s court case is resolved. He is scheduled for arraignment in Lucas County Court of Common Pleas on Nov. 20. This year’s Transgender Day of Remembrance will be at 7 p.m. Nov. 20 at the Sylvania United Church of Christ, 7240 Erie St. Organized by Toledo Area Transgender Support (TATS), the event includes a recognition reading, speakers, a memorial service and fellowship. TATS founder and facilitator Edie Recker visited Milligan while she was in the hospital after the attack. She visited to provide support, not just for Milligan, but for Milligan’s family as well. “I gave them a lot of advice to help them understand the journey that Candice was going on,” said Recker, who is also transgender. “I think it was a lifechanging experience for them.” n TRANSGENDER CONTINUES ON 7

n TRANSGENDER CONTINUED FROM 6 After Milligan’s attack, the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, questioning and allied (LGBTQA) community organized a community conversation to provide a safe space to discuss newsworthy issues. The group discussed steps to ensure the safety of the transgender community. Conversations included how to be a caring ally, how the media covers the transgender community, how police treat transgender people and artistic avenues in which their community can express themselves. “EqualityToledo, BRAVO (Buckeye Region Anti-Violence Organization) and TransOhio knew the importance of bringing together the LGBTQ communities in Toledo as well as our allies to have a conversation about the state of our community,” EqualityToledo Executive Director Dave Crafts said. “We wanted to give everyone an opportunity to discuss how we can best support Candice as well as talk about our safety and how we can move forward. The conversations were very positive and many goals
were derived from the meeting. ... The conversations are not over.” Living in fear is not helpful, Recker said. She said education is the most important way to change attitudes. Even the straight community needs to be aware, she said. “Straight people don’t have any more guarantees than we do,” she said. “Both sides need to be educated to live and work in a society that may not be their best friend. “You think it’d never happen … but it did,” she said. Transgender Day of Remembrance has grown each year: the first event was held in 2011 at Levis Square with eight people standing outside in the snow, Recker said. Last year, 100 people squeezed into a room at Sylvania United Church of Christ that could only hold 80. This year, the event will be held in the church’s sanctuary and Recker hopes to fill it. Recker said it’s an event that provides a glimpse of the brutality the transgender community goes through. “The stronger we are there, the stronger we are the next day on the street,” Recker said. O

The Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) civil rights organization, recently released its third annual report assessing LGBT equality in 353 cities across the nation, including six in Ohio. The group’s Municipal Equality Index rates cities on LGBT inclusion in municipal law and policy. The average score for cities in Ohio was 83 out of 100 points, which is above the national average of 59. Toledo, with 58, is the only Ohio city to fall below that average. Other Ohio cities rated include Akron (68), Cincinnati (100), Cleveland (79), Columbus (100) and Dayton (95). For more information, visit hrc.org/mei.

Understanding the transgender community The term “transgender” refers to anyone who transitions from one gender to another, according to www.transohio.org. It includes anyone whose gender identity differs from their assigned gender at birth. There is a difference between a gay or lesbian person and a transgender person: The former deals with sexual orientation, which is the emotional and physical attraction to others, while the latter deals with gender identity and expression. Transgender people also have a sexual orientation, which can include heterosexual, gay, lesbian, bisexual or asexual. Many transgender people face violence, insufficient access to medical and mental health services or lack of inclusive and accessible health insurance, according to the site. One of the biggest issues relates to the lack of legal protections: 81 percent of transgender people in Ohio reported experiencing harassment or mistreatment on the job, 28 percent lost a job, 27 percent were denied a promotion and 46 percent were not hired because they are transgender. Buckeye Region Anti-Violence Organization (BRAVO) works to eliminate violence against the LGBTQ community. If anyone in the community experiences theft, vandalism, the burning of the rainbow flag, homo/bi/transphobic comments or threats, call BRAVO at 1-866-86-BRAVO, email report@bravo-ohio.org or visit www.bravo-ohio.org.

ProMedica recently unveiled plans and renderings for its $40 million move Downtown, which will bring around 800 administrative employees together on one consolidated campus. As part of the move, ProMedica intends to renovate the former Toledo Edison Steam Plant and also occupy the entire KeyBank office building, both along Summit Street. The proposed campus will also incorporate a new multilevel, partially underground parking garage to be built on a section of the adjacent Promenade Park along the Maumee River. “The project will help boost economic development in the community and provide a catalytic energy for a revitalized Downtown in the future,” said Robin Whitney, ProMedica’s vice president of property acquisition and development. “We are working collaboratively with city and state officials on this project and upon receiving the historic and new market tax credit approvals, the renovation and construction for the Downtown campus could begin in the fall of 2015.” ProMedica plans to create several levels inside the historic steam plant, preserving architectural elements while creating an open, contemporary environment and allowing for collaboration among employees and other community members. According to a ProMedica news release, final details must still be worked out with city and state officials regarding usage of the land in Promenade Park, which is owned by the city. Local officials have applauded the

move since intentions were first revealed in February, and now visuals of a potential campus have them equally excited. “ProMedica’s move Downtown is going to be a great move for the city,” said Toledo Mayor D. Michael Collins. “It’ll be a domino effect of economic development. Downtown in five years is going to be nothing like the Downtown of today. It’s going to bring new jobs, too.” ProMedica’s consolidation will bring 700 workers Downtown, and ProMedica plans to add 100 new positions, for a total of 800, said Stacy Weber, public information officer for the City of Toledo. ProMedica will take over the entire KeyBank building when KeyBank moves its offices to the 15th floor of the nearby Edison Building. “They’ll occupy the whole thing, so I’m sure they’ll be renovating every floor,” said Jim Hoffman, KeyBank president. “We’ve taken some time and decided that would make sense for them, and for us to be across the street. We won’t move out of here until June of 2015. It’s great for the community and great for Downtown.” The Regional Growth Partnership (RGP) said this is the largest influx of workers to Downtown in the organization’s 20 years of existence. “We’re looking at this as a more Downtown revitalization story,” said John Gibney, RGP vice president, marketing & communications. “This is a great story for the region. ProMedica is a huge piece of that. A lot of times the downtown is the face of the community and whenever you have positive news taking place, it shows a vibrant community and that things are happening.

Owens likely headed for ‘fiscal watch’ By Sarah Ottney
Toledo Free Press Editor in Chief sottney@toledofreepress.com
Faced with a steep drop in enrollment over the past several years, leaders at Owens Community College recently announced the school is expected to be placed on “fiscal watch” by the state sometime early next year. On Nov. 10, Owens announced a fivepart recovery plan to stabilize its finances. The plan includes efforts to BOWER increase student enrollment and retention, a proposed tax levy, more analysis of spending, position eliminations and salary/wage reductions. “We are proposing some very challenging measures while focusing on initiatives which will improve our revenue,” said Owens President Mike Bower on Nov. 10. “We will be challenged to be more entrepreneurial, to share difficult sacrifices and to move this college forward. We can and will transform this college.” The official designation won’t come until the Ohio Board of Regents receives Owens’ audit and calculates its official composite ratios that measure fiscal health, expected to occur during the first quarter of 2015.
The ratio takes into account a school’s reserve levels, net income and viability levels and rates it on a scale from 0 to 5. An institution that scores 1.75 or less two years in a row is placed on fiscal watch. Owens’ ratio was 1.1 in 2013 and is expected to be 1.0 for 2014, said Jeff Robinson, the Board of Regents’ director of communications. No other Ohio schools are currently on the board’s radar for fiscal watch, Robinson said. “That’s the only one we’re looking at right now within the next year or so,” he said. The only other Ohio school to ever be placed on fiscal watch was Central State University in Wilberforce, from 1997 to 2002. Schools on fiscal watch are required to report finances to the state more frequently and to develop and implement a three-year recovery plan. Owens’ five-part recovery plan includes: 1. Revenue enhancement through strategic enrollment growth, retention and completion. 2. Develop new long-term revenue sources, including but not limited to a tax levy proposal. 3. Analyze spending to ensure all spending is focused on recruiting and educating students and implementing a student completion plan. 4. Reduce employment costs through position elimination. It is not yet known how many positions
might be impacted. College leadership will consult with deans and department heads and staff will be informed which positions will be included in the reduction in January, according to a news release. 5. Implement salary and wage reductions among non-bargaining staff beginning Jan. 1, while requesting all bargaining units to take similar reductions. In addition, the college will offer the opportunity for employees to take voluntary furloughs. Salary reductions will range from 2 to 5 percent. Bower said he plans to take a 6 percent reduction in salary. Owens cut $16 million out of its fiscal year 2014 budget, but remains hampered by reduced enrollment, which has dropped by 38 percent over the past four years. The school’s enrollment peaked at 23,606 in the fall of 2009 during the recession, but has been steadily dropping since, with 12,577 students enrolled this semester at all locations. Robinson said community colleges statewide have been dealing with drops in enrollment, and applauds Owens’ efforts to improve. “It shows they are taking a proactive approach to this and are wanting to turn things around,” Robinson said. “President Bower hasn’t been there too long and I know he’s wanting to get things moving in the right direction and stabilize enrollment. Owens is taking an approach that shows they are interested in righting the ship.” O

Lucas County Children Services begins its annual gift drive By Joel Sensenig
TOLEDO FREE PRESS Managing Editor jsensenig@toledofreepress.com
Lucas County Children Services (LCCS) believes every child deserves the “best gift ever” this holiday season.
The agency is hosting its eighth annual Holiday Gift Drive, which will provide presents for 2,500 children who are victims of abuse and neglect. Donation boxes have already been placed at various businesses throughout Northwest Ohio for community members to place
new, unwrapped toys. Toys will be accepted through Dec. 17. “We ask people to buy the things their own children and grandchildren would love, because our kids are the same as their kids,” said Julie Malkin, LCCS public information officer.

SMALLER INCISIONS. QUICKER RECOVERY. EASIER DECISIONS.
I was treated at my neighborhood hospital, St. Anne.
Less invasive than traditional surgery.
Back on my feet—and on the mat—sooner than I expected.
She noted this year’s campaign, running under the theme “Give the Best Gift Ever,” is expected to serve up to 600 more children than last year because children in foster care will receive gifts this year. Last year, foster parents were given a larger stipend to help cover the cost of gifts, but the agency’s financial situation prevents that from happening this year, Malkin said. People can also make a $5 donation to the drive by texting BESTGIFT to 41911. These funds will go toward gifts to be purchased by co-sponsor Friends of LCCS, a 501(c)(3) organization that supports LCCS. The agency is in particular need of gifts for children 3 years of age, and younger as well as giftcards for teenagers. “We love the basic kinds of toys,” Malkin said. “Our kids oftentimes are behind in some of their basic skills.
When you have games like Legos, like board games, arts and crafts supplies, those are learning opportunities as well as toys.” Toys can be dropped off in marked boxes at the LCCS offices, 705 Adams St., or at any of the following businesses: Allshred Services, 3940 Technology Drive, Maumee; Barnes & Noble, 4940 Monroe St. (books only); Brondes Ford, 5545 Secor Road and 1511 S. Reynolds Road, Maumee; The Town Center at Levis Commons (selected retailers); all Toledo-area Burger King locations; all Toledo-area Family Video locations; all Lucas County Kroger stores; Toledo Auto Care, 4544 Monroe St.; Woodcraft, 5311 Airport Hwy.; and all Yark Automotive locations.

A patient’s seemingly simple move from lying on the back to the stomach is having major impacts in the treatment of breast cancer, doctors say. Dr. Julia White of Ohio State University’s James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute has helped develop a modified treatment board that allows patients to lie comfortably on their stomachs while the breast tissue falls away from the chest wall, allowing the radiation to target the cancer. Often referred to as a prone therapy board, the method is utilized at the University of Toledo Medical Center as well as ProMedica hospitals. A representative of Mercy was not able to be reached for comment. “Most women, when they get that breast radiation, it’s given with the patient lying on their back,” said White, who is director of breast radiation oncology at Ohio State’s Stefanie Spielman Comprehensive Breast Center. “And it’s good — I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with it, but it has some limitations.” Those limitations include exposing organs in the chest cavity — including the heart and lungs — to radiation fields. Recent studies show prone radiation treatment cuts the amount of lung and heart tissue affected by radiation by 90 percent. Another side effect of the on-the-back treatment is the cosmetic damage it does to the breast shape, often leaving the breast with a conical shape. White developed the prone therapy board with Qfix, a world leader in radiotherapy patient positioning and mobilization. “It’s a board that allows us to treat a patient in a way that there’s a hole for the affected breast,” she said. “The breast falls through the hole in the
table. She lies on her unaffected breast and her arms are straight ahead. In doing that, the breast becomes an almost easier radiotherapy target because it’s lying below the chest wall.” Sharon Nugent, clinical manager of the Hickman Cancer Center at ProMedica Flower Hospital, said the facility has utilized the board for the past three years. It was used initially on larger-busted women but now on an increasing number of patients, regardless of breast size. Nugent said the women like the board because it’s more comfortable, while physicians prefer it because it offers better positioning and reproducibility in reviewing results. The prone treatment — which White started working on in 1997 — is most often used on women with stage 1 or early stage 2 breast cancer who have elected to have a lumpectomy and hope to preserve as much of the breast tissue and shape of the breast as possible. Nugent said up to 70 percent of these patients receive therapy in the prone position. “When we treat a patient prone, we know we don’t have to talk to them about risks to their heart, because their heart won’t be in the field,” White said. “One of the things that happens when we treat a patient on her back is that she breathes, which is obviously good. But it also means we have to take into account chest wall motion with breathing. When a woman lies on her belly, she fixes that chest wall so it allows us to have a very tight margin to place the field right at the rib junction so we can treat all the breast tissue in front of the ribs and exclude that tissue below the ribs into the chest wall cavity where the heart and lungs are.” “It’s been slower to be adopted than one would think, but … everyone’s been used to doing treatment one way, with women lying on their

back. It does take a little more technical savvy, a little more time. Having the new breast boards that are in development now will help enable institutions feeling more comfortable treating patients like this.” White said it’s important to remember that no one treatment will work for every patient. “The idea is we give every woman the treatment that’s right for her. For some women, that’s going to be lying on her back. For some women, it could be lying on her belly if the technology is available,” she said. “First and foremost, we want to cure her, but if she elects to keep her breast, we also want to keep her [breast] as intact as possible. If you’re going to go through breast conservation, we want the breast to look as normal as can possibly be afterward, with the minimal amount of long-term effects from the radiotherapy.” O

Since 1922, Toledo Memorial Park has served the community as a peaceful place to lay family members to rest. Ear-
lier this year, it extended that offering to four-legged family members as well. The cemetery opened its 6-acre Reflections Garden at Toledo Memorial Park Especially For Pets in the northwest corner of its lot at 6382 Monroe St., Sylvania.
“We’ve had quite a bit of interest from customers at the cemetery wanting to be buried with their pets or have their pets buried here,” said Jeffery Clegg, president and CEO of Toledo Memorial Park.

Is that something we should be looking into?’” he said. “We started an exploratory program looking at that to see if that’s something our customers would be interested in and overwhelmingly, they said yes.” The pet cemetery officially opened for business in the summer, although it will likely be spring before the grand opening is held as the park is still getting the word out about Reflections Garden. It is set up as a separate entity due to Ohio laws, but will be operated through trust accounts for perpetual care of the grounds. Clegg said it became clear the pet

there is a need to take care of these pets when they pass. … We wanted to have that extension of the family taken care of just like we would any of our other customers.” Although some of the costs associated with having a pet buried are still being adjusted, Clegg said basic packages — which include a marker (with etching), vase, burial space and fees —
start at a few hundred dollars. The Toledo area does have another cemetery that, unlike Toledo Memorial Park, only handles pet burials. Reith Pet Cemetery, 315 S. McCord Road in Holland, was established in 1964. Almost 5,000 pets have been buried on its 1.6 acres, according to owner Doug Ronau. At Reith, a small pet may be buried
starting at $225. “(Pet owners) want to be able to come out and visit them and be able to look at a marker just like they would a human grave,” Ronau said.

On Nov. 12, ProMedica Toledo Children’s Hospital unveiled a photography exhibit on its walls featuring children who are not defined by their disabilities. “Beyond the Frame” is a permanent installation in the main lobby of the facility. The display, sponsored by the hospital’s Family Advisory Council, features 30 photographs of the hospital’s patients, families and staff, highlighting the concepts behind the hospital’s patient and family-centered care philosophy. The shots were taken by New York City-based photographer Rick Guidotti, a former fashion photographer who now takes photos of children with genetic conditions and special health care needs for his company, Positive Exposure. “I’ve had exhibits in Grand Central Station, the Museum of Natural History in [Washington] D.C., but this where finally, these photographs belong — in a children’s hospital,” Guidotti said at a reception for the exhibit’s unveiling to the public. “These are kids that have had all kinds of challenges, but they’re kids, first and foremost. It’s overwhelming to see that on the walls.”

Positive Exposure’s mission is to change public perceptions of individuals living with disabilities. Emily Rippe, ProMedica content specialist, said the exhibit is permanent but noted the photographs may be switched out occasionally, as hundreds of photographs were taken for the project. Renee Ruth, 18, of Dana, Indiana, is among the exhibit’s subjects. “It’s really cool,” she said while gazing up at the close-up photograph of her face. “It’s on my bucket list to do modeling. I really look up to Rick. I
like photographing eyes, so that’s why he photographed my eyes.” Each photograph includes a quote from the patient or a family member. Ruth’s piece reads: “I am always smiling and never give up no matter the obstacles. I live each day to the fullest. I am currently in my second year of college.” Ruth, who has been coming to the hospital for two years, has dysautonomia, mitochondrial disease and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. She wants to be a counselor for those with chronic, terminal and rare diseases. O

Local homeowners Robert and Barbara Schmitt, along with their builder Bill Decker, claim to have the first Net Zero Energy home in Northwest Ohio. The U.S. Department of Energy defines a Net Zero Energy home as one that uses 60 to 70 percent less energy than a conventional home, with the balance of its energy supplied by renewable sources. It is essentially a home that sustains itself by generating the bulk of its own energy and makes extra to sell back to the utility. Zero net energy consumption also means the total amount of energy used by the building on an annual basis is roughly equal to the amount of renewable energy created on the site. The couple’s home appears to qualify under both definitions. The Schmitts selected energy-efficient builder Decker Homes of Lambertville in 2010 to build their new home in the Deer Valley development located in Monclova Township. The couple moved into the 2,415-square-foot house in March 2011 but didn’t achieve their ultimate goal of having a Net Zero Energy home until last month. Schmitt worked in the construction industry for many years before retiring in 2010 and asking Decker to help him and his wife accomplish their goal.
Decker Homes included a geothermal ground source heating and cooling system, Energy Star appliances, LED lighting and other energysaving technologies to reduce energy costs as much as possible. Schmitt insisted on having foam insulation sprayed in the attic, basement and walls of the house, and plans to add solar power in the future. When the cost dropped by 50 percent three years later, the time was right to add solar panels as the final step in having their Net Zero Energy home, Schmitt said. “More people are talking about Net Zero and asking about geothermal and solar. The cost of solar keeps coming down and making it more affordable,” Decker said. The Schmitt home was the fifth home built by Decker Homes in Deer Valley with solar energy but the only Net Zero Energy home, Decker reported. The Schmitt home is the only Net Zero Energy home in the area as far as the Home Builders Association of Greater Toledo knows, according to Executive Director Jennifer Lynch. The Schmitts signed a contract in August for an 8 kilowatts (kW) solar systsem at a cost of $3.57 per watt with Ohio-based Dovetail Solar and Wind, which Decker recommended. They designed a solar system that would reduce the household energy costs to zero, according to Dave Leahy, director of sales for Dovetail. “We had a three-year history of
energy consumption of the Schmitt home and we knew how much an 8K solar system would produce in the Toledo area to achieve net zero energy,” Decker said. The rooftop photovoltaic system consists of 32 SolarWorld 250-watt, 60-cell panels mounted on the roof of the home and garage. The tilt angle of the panels and roof is about 40 degrees, according to Dovetail. The solar installation was completed in late September. The system was approved and activated on Oct. 1. Toledo Edison installed a new digital meter to accommodate the solar system on the home. “They were surprised to see it was running backward,” Schmitt said. On a bright sunny “peak” day, Schmitt said it can generate as much as 45kW with the meter literally flying backward. In the first month, their system generated 663 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of the 802 kWh they consumed in October, leaving them with 139 kWh of usage that cost them less than $20. Schmitt said that it generated more than 110 kWh in the first four days of November. “You only get down to zero. They won’t pay you when it goes beyond that,” Schmitt said. “If we generate more than our total consumption, Edison will show a credit for the next month and the credit would build up.” They don’t expect that to happen. Decker said the Schmitt’s 8K solar

system is expected to produce about 10,500 kilowatts of electricity per year with the home consuming about the same amount. The average over 12 months would create the net zero. Schmitt said the 30 percent solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC) from the federal government helped make the solar installation more affordable. Investment in solar installations will be 70 times higher in 2014 than when the ITC went into effect in 2006. However, the ITC is scheduled to expire in 2016, according to the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA). The SEIA launched a national campaign Oct. 20 to extend the 30 percent solar tax credit past 2016 by emphasizing tax fairness.
The next closest thing to a Net Zero Energy home in the Toledo area is probably the home of Al Compaan, retired professor of physics and astronomy who was involved in research and development of photovoltaic technology at the University of Toledo. Compaan said he has a net zero electricity home with a solar installation that provides power for all electrical use including the air conditioning. He uses natural gas for heat instead of geothermal systems found in most net zero energy homes, he said. Compaan currently serves as president and CEO of Lucintech Inc., a startup involved in the development of thinfilm photovoltaic modules that convert sunlight directly into electricity. O

jsensenig@toledofreepress.com
A Perrysburg specialty coffee shop is asking the public for help in delivering its caffeinated beverages to customers — wherever they may be. The Flying Joe, 2130 Preston Parkway in Levis Commons, is in the midst of a Kickstarter campaign to fund a coffee truck in its attempt to bring its caffeine to the masses. The 7-year-old coffee shop has through Dec. 1 to raise $25,000 for the mobile service, which will bring caffeinated beverages to customers throughout the Toledo area. “We were toying around with the idea of upgrading in the shop,” said owner Becky Ohm. “It sort of evolved into the coffee truck idea, as originally it was going to be a coffee cart.” Ohm said the shop gets asked to provide its coffee, tea and food at weddings, festivals and fundraisers, and the coffee truck could serve as a natural extension of its current offerings. “We thought, ‘If we could bring the coffee to the people, that would be really awesome,’” she said. “Then we could expose more people to the specialty coffee industry.” Through the shop’s month-long Kickstarter campaign, those interested in making the truck become a reality can donate an amount ranging from $1 to $2,500. Donors can receive anything from a bumper sticker to drinks and T-shirts and — for $2,500 — a flight with Becky and her husband John. The coffee

shop’s name stems from the fact Becky was a pilot with the 180th Fighter Wing of the Ohio Air National Guard for 14 years and currently serves as the Aircraft Maintenance Squadron Commander, while John is currently a pilot for the 127th Wing of the Michigan Air National Guard. Bri Gibson, general manager of The Flying Joe, is passionate about the shop’s coffee and is eager to take that A Toledo Tradition. passion on the road. “In a single location, we’re limited to whoever walks in the door,” she said. “There’s no way to bring specialty coffee to new customers, and we’re very hidden in the back of Levis Commons. We’re pretty committed to the 1/2 off breakfast current customer base we’ve got at the at Charlies on shop, and we’d never leave them. But my feet are itching to travel. … We’re Monroe trying to mobilize coffee in Toledo, bringing our passion to the table in a Visit us on the web for coupons way that nobody else has yet.” www.charliesoftoledo.com If the campaign were to fall short of its $25,000 goal, contributors’ would not be charged, and the Flying Joe would not get any funds. “It’s really a cool thing for the area — it would be the first coffee truck in the area,” Ohm said. “Toledo deserves something that cool, I think. We already have a lot of food trucks popping up. … The specialty coffee industry has come so far in the seven years since we opened, and this will expose more people to some really good coffee that’s out there.” For more information or to donate, go to www.kickstarter.com and search for “The Flying Joe” or visit www.theflyingjoe.com.

Too many cooks
Writer/director Casper Kelly on creating new cult classic. By Jeff McGinnis TOLEDO FREE PRESS POP CULTURE EDITOR PopGoesJeff@gmail.com
I
t starts out looking like most any cliche, cheesy sitcom opening sequence from the ’80s. Upbeat, bland theme tune. Actors turning with a smile to the camera. All very familiar. But then things start to happen that feel ... wrong. The theme music never stops; it just keeps on playing. More and more cast members appear, bringing it past the point of being ludicrous. The show’s genre seems to change — from sitcom to cop drama to prime-time soap and more. And then there’s the creepy guy who suddenly starts killing the rest of the cast.
This is “Too Many Cooks,” the comedy short that is taking the Internet by storm. Produced for Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim late-night lineup, the dark satire first aired in the network’s “Infomercial” slot — meaning 4 a.m. on Halloween. But something happened when the clip found its way online, and soon the bizarre short exploded virally. In about a week, the myriad postings of the short — both official and otherwise — had garnered over 5 million hits. At the epicenter of it all is a young writer and director named Casper Kelly, who is both ecstatic and a little dumbfounded. “It is super, super — three su-
pers — exciting and thrilling, almost veering into the other side, of flop sweat and panic,” Kelly said in an interview with Toledo Free Press. “I’m holding it together, having fun.” Kelly is not a new voice among Adult Swim’s class of comedic subversives. He has worked for years at production headquarters in Atlanta, composing funny promos for Cartoon Network shows, writing for shows like “Squidbillies” and “Aqua Teen Hunger Force” and co-creating the series “Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell.” Not typical fare, even for latenight basic cable, but Kelly revels in the creative freedom working at Adult Swim provides. n COOKS CONTINUES ON 20

Killer Bill: Atlanta actor makes mark as ‘Cooks’ silent assassin. By Jeff McGinnis TOLEDO FREE PRESS POP CULTURE EDITOR PopGoesJeff@gmail.com
The voice on the other end of the phone is kind. Bright. A little higher than you’d expect, given its owner. A definite southern twang — understandable since he’s lived in Georgia so long, though he’s Pennsylvanian by birth. He’s gracious, good-natured, a sweetheart. You wouldn’t guess how natural he looks chopping people’s heads off with a machete. William Tokarsky is his name,
and for the past week or so his face has become the central image of one of the Internet’s most wildly successful viral videos. He plays the killer — “Bill,” if the credit on IMDb.com is to be believed, though he’s never named in the short — at the center of the bizarre satire “Too Many Cooks,” produced by Cartoon Network. “I was working as an extra for [director and writer] Casper Kelly on another show he does on Adult Swim,” Tokarsky said in an interview with Toledo Free Press. n TOKARSKY CONTINUES ON 20

20 Star n COOKS CONTINUED FROM 19 “It’s wonderful, and our boss, Mike Lazzo — he’s a tough audience,” Kelly said. “He’s a very sophisticated viewer, and gets bored easily. But when he likes what you’re doing, he gives you a lot of rope, a lot of freedom to try it. And does not micromanage. He gives you kind of big ideas at the beginning, and might give you ideas at the end, but in the middle, he lets you do your thing — which is great.” Still, Kelly was hesitant to pitch the idea that would become “Too Many KELLY Cooks.” Though there was plenty of precedent for Adult Swim’s experimental ideas like it n TOKARSKY CONTINUED FROM 19 “And we became friends, and he liked my look. And there were two or three other people he had in mind for that role, and we all submitted this little tape and audition, and he picked me. And I think I did a decent job.” Tokarsky is putting it mildly. His gleefully crazed facial expressions and malevolent presence TOKARSKY are key to much of the short’s dark comedy. It’s a look that has served Tokarsky well since he first began dipping his toe into acting. “I retired from General Motors. And they were making a movie where I live. And suburban Atlanta has become a hotbed of movie and TV production. And I was talking to some people that used to be on the line working, and there’s people that were extras. And I thought, ‘Well, I could do that!’ And I just started doing that. “I have a unique look that garnered me a position up front sometimes, to the point where someone tapped me on the shoulder on [The] ‘Hunger Games: Catching Fire’ [set] and said, ‘You have a speaking line next week if you want it.’” No speaking lines were needed on the set of “Too Many Cooks,” though. Tokarsky’s silent maniac appears subtly at first, stalking in the background of many shots, to the point where many viewers may not notice him until he begins his mad slasher act in earnest. Even Tokarsky is surprised at how often he appears in the finished product. “I never had a script when we did it. So basically, what occurred was, they would place me, or give an action, and I would do it. And you don’t necessarily shoot in order. So it was a surprise to me that we were playing
November 16, 2014
A Toledo tradition since 2005 ToledoFreePress.com in their late infomercial slots, he wasn’t totally confident that the concept could sustain a full short. “I had the idea, and I didn’t even tell Mike Lazzo, because I didn’t know if it would work. So I was afraid to pitch it. But I told some co-workers, who at a work party told him. And the idea made him laugh, so I had to do it at that point.” Filming came together remarkably quickly given how complicated the finished product would prove to be, Kelly said. “Interestingly — and this was probably a good thing — we did not have a lot of time, because we had a narrow window open up where our production company could do it. So once I had the outline, I think we only had a couple of weeks. So I just had to think about it constantly and just kind of throw down every idea I could. “We had a lot of time in post, but ‘Where’s Waldo,’” he said. “I watched it the first time, and never saw myself in locations — like the 22-second mark in, where I’m standing behind the little girl — I didn’t see myself there. But I was there when we filmed the damn thing! It’s like I didn’t see the big picture in Casper’s mind when we filmed it. He gave me an action, and I did it.” The success of “Cooks” has come as a surprise for most. But even though Tokarsky admits he’s not exactly part of the demographic the short is aimed at, he said he had a feeling it would either be a colossal success or an equally memorable failure.” “I was speaking with my wife, and I said, ‘Well, there’s one of two things that’s going to happen. This thing is going to stink so bad, no one’s ever going to see it. Or, it’s going to go viral.’” Now that his latter prediction has come true, Tokarsky’s excited about the opportunities his sudden exposure may bring. “I would think I would get a few things out of it — you know, the creepy janitor on a TV show,” he said. “I’ve found my genre; I’ve found what I can do. I’m retired, and I have a decent pension, so, as a friend of mine, another actor, said — ‘It’s all gravy.’ And I’m having fun with it, I got an agent last April, I’ve pretty much stopped doing extra work except for Casper — I’m going to work for him, because I like him, and he likes me, and maybe I can get a contract out of him on his other show!” Is Tokarsky worried about being typecast, thanks to “Too Many Cooks”’ popularity? Not at all. In fact, he relishes the idea. “I know who I am, so it doesn’t bother me,” he said. “If you want to act, you got to get an agent, you get an agent where they don’t have 10 other guys looking for your role. Because how many guys want to be the creepy guy?” O
leading up to it was a mad dash. And so much work was getting headshots, and finding people that had the right look, to give you the feeling for that character.” Another crucial element would be the short’s music — that initially chipper tune that mutates into forms that are dramatic, haunting and more. Kelly was hands-on with its creation, as well. “That took a lot of time. I wrote the lyrics — most of the lyrics — and then we used one audio guy, who was great, and then it got to be too much.
Because we had no money — he was doing it for us as a favor. He did as much as he could, and then we had to hand it off to someone else to finish it, who did a great job. I think I really got the best out of both of them. “People were saying that song gets stuck in their head. It sure did get stuck in our head when we were editing it.” Kelly has no plans to rest on his laurels, even now that “Too Many Cooks” has garnered such fame and acclaim in a brief amount of time. He’s
hard at work on the second season of “Your Pretty Face,” and said he’s primed and ready for whatever opportunities may arise. “I’m excited, because I have opportunities now to make more stuff. And I have a notebook full of ideas, short films, and feature scripts and more. And I feel like a kid in a candy store right now.” View “Too Many Cooks” on Adult Swim’s YouTube page: http://bit.ly/ toomanyvideo. O

The musical follows two men who organize a Christmas show in order to save a neighborhood’s livelihood. This production is the second musical Start has done in seven years. Musicals were reintroduced to the school with last year’s production of “The Drowsy Chaperone.” “We have college-level musicians who often don’t get noticed. So it’s nice to bring them together for the community to see the young people and how hard they’ve worked,” Ludden said. “White Christmas” will be performed at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 21-22 at Start High School’s auditorium inside the West Toledo YMCA, 2110 Tremainsville Road. Tickets are available for $10 by calling (419) 671-3000. Reservations are recommended. O

Also, we have a giant tap number in the show.”

“I’m over 50 and I haven’t had a colonoscopy yet, so … you do the math.” On a list of fun things to do, a colonoscopy would come in somewhere between “root canal” and “chew on foil.” But it’s still critical that you schedule an appointment at ProMedica to have one done. Because if found early, colon cancer can be easily treated.

You can make an excuse or you can make an appointment by calling 800-PPG-DOCS.
