In the clink for
a good cause

FAIRBORN — Nearly 200 “jailbirds” from all over
Greene County, dressed in their Hawaiian best,
were locked up Wednesday for a good cause.
The luau-themed Greene County MDA Lock-Up
was held at Texas Roadhouse in Fairborn, with individuals representing numerous local businesses and
public officials attempting to raise their “bail” to
help the Muscular Distrophy Association reach
their goal of $50,000.
Participants from all over Greene County have
been working on raising donations since January.
Roughly 170 jailbirds raised a combined $35,000
prior to Wednesday’s event and had raised another
$2,000 before noon by making phone calls from
“jail.”
“This is a very warm community,” said Laura
Shepherd, MDA Executive Director. “You really get
a feel for what people are like when you do this in
different towns. The people in Greene County are
so friendly and giving.”
Participants included many Greene County public officials, workers from local municipalities, law
enforcement officers, and other individuals from
Fairborn, Yellow Springs, Beavercreek and Xenia.
Among the Fairborn group were police Captain
Terry Bennington; Kim Bigelow from Fairborn
Primary School; Councilwoman Marilyn
McCauley; and Mark Neuman, City of Fairborn IT
Director.
The two largest amounts were raised by Dave
Judson of JJR Solutions in Beavercreek with
$2,634 and Bill Isaacs of the Ohio State Fraternal
Order of Eagles with $3,795 as of Tuesday. Isaacs’
goal is to raise $4,000 by the end of campaign.
“This $50,000 is critical to our programs we
have for our families,” Shepherd said. “Basically
that money is already spent at beginning of the
year.”
Donations will go toward flu shots for the MDA

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

BEAVERCREEK — Steve Austria
made a stop at the Greene County
Dailies newsroom yesterday to talk
about his priorities during his final year
representing the seventh Congressional
district.
Last year, Ohio Legislatures passed a
revised district map that eliminated
Austria’s seventh district and divided
the area among three other districts.
Austria announced soon after that he
would not campaign for another term in
the 2012 election.
“One of my biggest concerns is that
the redistricting gives us less represen-
tation in the Dayton area and less representation for Wright-Patt,” he said.
“Wright-Patt will go from three representative to one.”
Representation at Wright-Patt,
Austria said, is crucial right now
because of cuts being made to Air Force
bases nationwide.
Running to maintain his seat in
Congress would also require Austria to
move his family to Columbus to be able
to run in another district, a move he didn’t want to make.
“Greene County is our home,” he said.
Although he has decided not to run
in the 2012 election, Austria plans to

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

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

Over the years, Austria and
members of the Congressional
Unmanned Systems Caucus
and the Federal Aviation
Administration have discussed
potential plans to integrate the
UAS and the National
Airspace System. Recently,
these efforts resulted in an
amendment of FAA regulations to allow air space in six
additional national locations to
build and test the UAS.
Currently, 22 sites are competing for FAA approval,
including Wright-Patterson Air
Force Base.
“Bringing a test site to our
area would open the door for
more businesses and more
jobs,” Austria said. “There are
companies that have already
said that they would move here
if we are chosen as one of the
six sites.”
Members of the FAA have
expressed safety concerns in
these locations, especially in
regions with heavy commercial air traffic. Because of
these concerns, Austria said
the CUSC found a location in

southwestern Ohio where there
is sufficient air space to test
the UAS. He hopes that this
location will aid in the FAA’s
approval of production in the
Dayton area.
The Dayton region is a very
competitive site for the development of these crafts, Austria
said, because of the research
being done and advanced technology being used by WPAFB
and its Air Force Research
Laboratory.
“We already have the radar
systems in place, sensors, and
all the things we need to make
it safe,” he said.
In addition, UASs are
already being controlled from
Springfield by the Springfield
National Guard.
In a recent press release,
Austria noted our region as
being “at the forefront of UAS
development, making it an
ideal location for one of these
pilot programs.”
The expansion of a production test site in the Dayton
region will also bring more
opportunities for businesses to
work with colleges, providing
unique training for students
before entering the workforce.
“UASs will become more
prominent as military aircraft
systems continue to technologically advance,” Austria said.
“This will put us in the
Department of Defense’s
future strategy.”
The language of the FAA
Reauthorization Reform Act of
2011 will establish each site
for five years.

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

The moral cost of new
military strategy is too high
The Iraq War was a disaster, so the United
States needs a new foreign policy. Instead of
invading foreign countries with tens of thousands of troops and trying to occupy and control the political process, President Barack
Obama has embraced a new foreign military
policy relying on “unmanned” drones and
limited counterinsurgency forces.
The poster child for this new war effort is
the ongoing U.S. military action in Pakistan.
ButWashington has also dramatically expanded the use of armed, unmanned military
drones in East Africa and part of the Arabian
Peninsula. The Congressional Research
Service reports that our military has more than
7,000 drones in its arsenal.
The arguments for drones are easy to make.
In an era of federal budget deficits, drone warfare is cheaper than deploying soldiers, and
apparently has widespread public support —
83 percent of people interviewed in a February
2012 ABC News/Washington Post poll said
they approved of the president’s use of drones
strikes to kill “terrorists.”
The Obama administration’s new military
strategy released earlier this year calls for
shrinking the number of troops and relying
more on drones and small-footprint military
interventions. Following a series of interviews
with administration officials, the journalist
David Rohde dubbed this the new “Obama
doctrine.”
Before embracing this new strategy,
Congress should consider its consequences.
Our country doesn’t need a new era of secret
wars with armed, military drones as the lead-

ing edge of covert or semi-covert military
campaigns around the world. Yet that’s what
we are getting. The operations that have been
reported in the media include Somalia,
Yemen, and of course Libya. And the results
now include the extrajudicial killings, without charge or trial, of U.S. citizens.
The explanation usually provided is that
these were really bad people. “I want to
make sure that people understand that
drones have not caused a huge number of
civilian casualties,” President Obama
declared in January. “For the most part, they
have been very precise, precision strikes
against al-Qaeda and their affiliates.”
Leaving aside the fact that people in
Pakistan would dispute his count of civilian
casualties, this is a slippery slope. We’re a
nation of laws, not a nation of assassins. We
have these laws precisely because we don’t
want the president to become judge, jury,
and executioner. What’s more, we don’t even
know the scale of these killings because they
are almost all secret. When Sen. Ron Wyden
asked for details about the legal basis for
using drones to kill U.S. citizens in another
Don’t allow yourself to get old
I have this theory.
I think too many people
allow themselves get old.
How many times have you
heard somebody say something like “Hey, Bill, let’s try
this or that?” and Bill says
“Oh, no, I’m too old to do
either one.”
Get real, Bill. If you are
really too old to do both, it’s
OK. But if you think maybe
you CAN do both despite your
advanced age then give it your
best shot.
The worst thing you can do
is refuse to do something or
other.

Olympic ski team or signing a

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

RELIGION
Plan to stand
Joshua Chapters 23 and 24 record
Joshua’s farewell address to his nation. Like
many speeches, this speech has a statement
that is always remembered. He says in 24:
15: “…as for me and my house, we will
serve the Lord.” His bold promise to stand
for the Lord no matter what should not be
looked at as an arrogant statement, but rather
a testimony of following a plan that God had
laid down for his people. Joshua is sharing
things he had observed in his eighty plus
years of service in the nation. He had been
the servant of Moses (what a mentor) and
had led the nation of Israel himself in possessing the land of Canaan. After some
twenty years of observing how the nation
was doing in their new land, Joshua shares
those truths that had guided his life. Let’s
look at them.
First, he was committed to the principles
of God’s Word. Chapter 23 verse 6 says to
keep and do all that is written in the book of
the Law of Moses. We are not given the
choice to just do what we want or what others think is alright. In his call to be the
replacement for Moses, God instructed him
to mediate on that Word day and night (1:8).
We need to be obedient to what God says. He
always has a good reason for what He does.
Second, Joshua was appreciative of the
person of God. Chapter 23 verse 7 warns
against any other gods. Their nation would
hear of the gods that the people of Canaan
had served. There would be those that would
come from other nations that also would
introduce them to their gods. Israel was to

give all of their attention and allegiance to
the God that had formed their nation since
the days of Abraham. Joshua instructed them
to remember what God had done for them.
We do well today to remember what our God
has done for us.
Third, he was aware of the beauty of the
presence of the Lord. Chapter 23 verse 8
admonishes us to be close to our God. The
God of the Bible is known as one who
desires to be close to his people. What a
blessing it is to have a personal relationship
through Jesus Christ with the god who made
the World and all that is within it. As Joshua
had witnessed in his 110 years on this earth,
our God is an awesome God who is worthy
of all of our worship and attention.
What great advice Joshua had given to the
people of his nation. The sad truth is that his
words did not have a lasting effect upon
them. Not long after his death and burial,
they were openly serving other gods. Let’s
not make the mistake they made. Let’s live
by His principles, come to learn more of His
person, and enjoy the blessing of His presence.
Community dinners set
FAIRBORN — Celebration
Worship Ministries offered their
first free community dinner
Monday, Feb. 27. A spaghetti and
meatball dinner served with a
tossed salad and bread sticks was
enjoyed by all who came. There
were also cookies for dessert.
With the success of this event,
CWM will offer a free community dinner at 6 p.m. the last
Monday of every month.
Everyone is invited.
“We want to help our neighbors as much as we can,” said
Peggy Foland, Community
Outreach Director. “We know that
at the end of the month, some-
times, grocery money and/or food
stamps start to run very low. We
want to assist Fairborn families
meet their needs. Knowing a dinner is available to serve your family when the cupboards are bare is
a great peace of mind. No one
understands the stress a parent has
when they have to worry about
feeding their children unless they
have been put in that place. We
understand and want to help.”
According to Foland, CWM
wants their neighbors to know that
they can reach out to them in their
time of need. Other Fairborn
churches are wonderful to offer
free meals through the Sonset
Café on Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday throughout the month,
so CWM wanted to help on a day
that meals might be also needed.
“We thought the end of the
month would help lessen a little of
the burden,” Foland said.
The church also wants to invite
those that would enjoy some conversation with friends.
“No one likes eating alone, so
we encourage singles, seniors,
anyone that would like a dinner
out to come and enjoy a free dinner,” Foland added. “We don’t
mean for this to be just for the
needy. We want to be a good
neighbor to everyone.“

Dealing with challenging days
“I consider everything a
loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for
whose sake I have lost all
things.’” (Philippians 3:8a)
Have you had a tough
week? Is today not looking
much better? Paul, in the
Bible, was human just like
you and me. He experienced
the “ups and downs” of life
like us but something was
different about him. What
Paul had is not out of yours
and my grasp.
Paul went through all
kinds of hardships: beatings,
shipwrecks,
starvation,
homelessness, and imprisonment. At one point he was in
a Roman prison in chains for
speaking boldly for Christ.
He pens a letter to many of
the churches in the region
near Ephesus. We call this
letter
in
the
Bible
“Ephesians.”
Ephesians is one of the
most beautifully written
books in the Bible. In the
first chapter, he describes
the position of the believer
in Jesus Christ and gives
great thanks for their faith in
Him.
How could a man chained
in prison have the perspective and fortitude to write
such a wonderful epistle?
First, Paul knew his own
identity. In Ephesians 1:1 it
says, “Paul, an apostle of
INSPIRATION
By William Northington
Guest Columnist
Christ Jesus by the will of
God…” An apostle is “one
sent”. Paul had met the Lord
on the road to Damascus and
clearly heard his call to live
for Him. He knew Jesus had
sent him to preach the good
news of God’s Kingdom to
those who were lost.
Everything he did was
because God wanted him to
do it. Paul knew who he was
and this was demonstrated
through his actions.
Second, Paul was othersfocused. Paul rarely referenced himself and his own
troubles unless it was to
encourage or challenge others. In the second part of
Ephesians 1:1, it indicates
the letter is sent “To the
saints in Ephesus, the faithful in Christ Jesus.” The reason we have so many letters
from Paul that contribute
signif icantly to our Bible
today is because Paul had a
true heart for others. He
cared about what others
needed and demonstrated
this through reaching out
through his missionary trav-

els. When he could not or
was not allowed to travel
because of imprisonment, he
used written communication. No doubt if Paul was
with us today he would have
used any and every appropriate media possible to reach
out to others.
Third, Paul focused on
Christ and blessed others.
“Praise be to the God and
Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ, who has blessed us in
the heavenly realms with
every spiritual blessing in
Christ.
For he chose us in him
before the creation of the
world to be holy and blameless in his sight.” (Ephesians
1:3-4) Paul continues in this
f irst
chapter
to
the
Ephesians to share with
them how they are loved,
redeemed, adopted, chosen,
and included in Christ. His
focus is completely on
Christ and the significance
of who people are in Him.
When you are having a
challenging day, remember
who you are in Christ,
change your focus to others
and on the Lord Jesus
Himself. Out of this perspective and the life found in
the Spirit, you will experience the same joy as Paul.

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

They’re helping to sustain us.”
The rules are simple enough: No
photography, no flip-flops, no exiting
during the sermon. They are printed
on pamphlets and multilingual signs
and announced at the start of every
service. But they are often ignored.
Ushers roamed the pews like security
guards, stopping more than one person from filming on digital cameras.
“I understand that you’re visiting
and you want to have a memory of it,”
said Carlos Smith-Ramsay, who
joined the church several years ago.
“But when we ask you to stop and you
continue to do so after the fact, that’s
disrespectful.”
Some pastors quietly manage the
crowds by requiring a written confirmation of guests from tour operators,
refusing walk-in visitors. Some
churches provide assigned seating for
tourists, while others demand a list

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

“They want to see what they’ve

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

Wife’s respect for husband shrinks as tall tales grow
DEAR ABBY: My husband, “Sam,” and I
have been married for 32 years, and all these
years he has lied continually. It has gotten so bad
that I cringe every time we’re invited to family
functions or get-togethers with friends. Sam uses
these gatherings to be the star of the show,
spilling out the most outrageous whoppers you
can imagine.
My family knows when he’s lying or exaggerating about something. They roll their eyes and
nudge me to let me know they know. Sam fabricates the most outlandish stories and never owns
up to anything he has done wrong. Instead he
blames me or others for his actions. If I confront
or challenge him, he gets defensive and says I’m
“always” belittling or challenging him in front of
others.

don’t have the respect I wish I had for him. What
can I do? — DISENCHANTED IN THE

XENIA — The ODNR Division of Wildlife hosted open houses in
five locations across Ohio. Locally the open house was at the Greene
County Fish and Game Association on Union Road. The open house
events provide sportsmen and women the opportunity to get information on proposed hunting, fishing and trapping regulations. It is
also a prime opportunity to meet with Division personnel to get questions answers.
This year the major hunting regulation changes deal with some
counties moving from Deer Zone A to Zone B, meaning that additional deer may be harvested.
District 5 Wildlife Biologist and acting District Manager Dave
Kohler explains the proposed changes, “There are several counties in
western Ohio moving from Zone A to Zone B for deer hunting. We
are above the target deer population numbers in those counties and
want hunters to harvest more deer there.
Additionally, the use of the special antlerless only deer tag will no
longer be available for the deer gun week in Zone C. This makes the
proposal consistent statewide the way it was in 2007 when that special permit was introduced.”

Girls State Basketball Tournament
Eagles on their way to Columbus
Bellbrook girls
hoping to slay
another giant in
the state tourney
By WAYNE BAKER
Sports Editor
wbaker@xeniagazette.com
BELLBROOK — Wednesday,
Bellbrook High School held a
pep rally to show its support for
the girls’ basketball team and its
amazing accomplishments this
season.
With four starters back from
last year’s 21-2 team, the Eagles
won the program’s 11th
Southwestern Buckeye League
title in 12 seasons.
On Friday, Bellbrook will be
playing in the state Final Four for
the first time since 1976, when
the Lady Eagles made it to the
Class AA title game against
Columbus Hartley, losing 45-44.
The road to Columbus has
been a very competitive and
challenging one, but Bellbrook
(22-4) has answered every challenge to win sectional, district
and regional championships.
Those titles were captured this
year against Alter, Kenton Ridge
and Carroll respectively. A huge
regional semi-final win against
CJ has made the tourney run
even sweeter.
Last year, Bellbrook lost to
CJ, 57-55, in the sectional final
and CJ ended up falling to
Carroll in the regional title game.
But this year, the team always
seems to find a way to win and
snatch victory from the jaws of
defeat.
“The girls never forgot the
feeling after losing to CJ last
year,” Bellbrook head coach
Jason Tincher said yesterday at
Herald photos by Barb Slone
practice. “They worked hard in
Bellbrook players take part in their final practice before
the off-season, getting into the
departing for the Division II state semifinals today. The

Golden Eagles will play Shaker Heights Hathaway Brown

NCAA First Four
South Florida works over Cal in NCAA tourney
By JOE KAY
AP Sports Writer
DAYTON (AP) — Ugly, ugly,
ugly. Just the way South Florida
likes it.
The Bulls introduced the NCAA
tournament to the Big East's nastiest defense Wednesday night, putting more than just a chill into a
California team that had never seen
anything like it. The Bulls allowed
only 13 points in the first half and
brushed their way to a 65-54 victory.
South Florida (21-13) will play
■
No. 5 seed Temple in Nashville on
Friday, a matchup of teams known
for gritty defense. Few have been
better than this one for the first 20
minutes on the NCAA stage.
The Bulls swarmed 'em, bumped
em' and swatted their shots away —
those that weren't air balls, that is.
California (24-10) didn't score
over the last 8:55 of the first half,
missing 10 shots and turning it
over twice while South Florida
pulled ahead 36-13.
Guard Jorge Gutierrez, the Pac12 player of the year, was held to
10 points on 4-of-10 shooting.
It wasn't all defense that got it
done for South Florida. Freshman
point guard Anthony Collins, a
thin-built player with a youthful
face that reminds coach Stan Heath
of a 12-year-old kid, played like a
star in his first NCAA tournament
game, scoring 12 points. Victor
Rudd had 15 points
The Golden Bears won't soon
forget the way they got worked
over. They must have felt as if there
were six Bulls on the floor at times
playing defense.
No, only five. The refs counted.
The Bulls set a Big East record
by giving up only 56.9 points per
game this season. Their problem:
They score about as many points as
they give up. South Florida didn't
have a player average in double
figures for the season.
Realizing he didn't have many
scoring options, Heath instituted
the defense-first, defense-last philosophy that got them to their first
NCAA tournament appearance in
20 years and, now, their first win.
The Bulls came in 0-2 in the tour-

Greeneview’s Woods commits
to play soccer for Michigan
By JON RUDY
Sports Writer
jrudy@xeniagazette.com
JAMESTOWN — Being an Ohio State
fan growing up, Greeneview’s Rylee
Woods was hoping he wouldn’t like
Michigan when he visited the campus.
Turns out, he liked everything about
it.
The Rams’ junior has verbally committed to play soccer for the Wolverines
in 2013. He’ll sign his National Letter
of Intent next February.
“Everything about the school, from
the coaches to the education, I liked,”
said Woods. “The whole attitude up
there was just great.”
Woods said he had made visits to
Ohio State, Cincinnati and the College
of Charleston. In the end though,
despite approaching the school with
cautious optimism, Michigan was too
appealing.
“There’s nothing you can’t like about
it,” Woods said.
Woods will be the third Greeneview
player under head coach Bob Eakins to
sign with a Division I college. Ryan
Hartman signed with Dayton, and Kyle
Bryan signed with Wright State.
“Not that I had anything to do with
it. I’m just excited for the kid,” Eakins
said. “It’s quite an accomplishment, and
it’s a testament to his work ethic and
willingness to succeed on the field.”
Michigan’s men’s soccer program
recently hired former Providence
College head coach Chaka Daley to be
its new head coach. Woods said he was
excited to play for Daley as well as new
assistant coach Tommy McMenemy,
who joined the program after coaching
at Columbia University.
“I like the coaches’ style. They said
they like to knock the ball around and
keep possession, and since I’m more of
a technical player, I like that style of
play,” Woods said.
Woods is a part of the Crew
Academy soccer team, which recently
switched to a 10-month season.
Because of the overlap on the high
school varsity season, Woods will likely
have to decide whether he wants to continue to play for the Rams for his senior
season, or play for the Crew for the
remainder of his prep career.
“I like to play at that high level with
the Crew, especially going into college,” Woods said. “I’d love to enjoy my
last year of high school soccer, but the
Crew environment might be better for
me.”
nament.
Other teams exult when one of
their players hits a big basket. The
Bulls cheer from the bench as the
other team passes the ball around
helplessly and hopelessly.
They were cheering their defense
from the opening tip.
The first time down the court,
Gutierrez forced a running shot
that was too hard, a taste of the
misery ahead. California missed its
first five shots and eight of its first
nine, helping South Florida pull
ahead 15-3.

Fairborn boys’ volleyball
team ready for season
FAIRBORN — The Fairborn
boys varsity volleyball program will open the 2012 season hosting its first ever TriState Tri-Match against
Wapahani High School
(Selma, Indiana) and Holy
Cross (Covington, Kentucky)
on March 24, 2012 at the
Fairborn Memorial Field
House located at Fairborn
Baker Middle School.
The Fairborn Skyhawks
look to rebound from a rough
2011 season after going 1-22.
The 2012 season is now in
the hands of first year head
coaches James and Molly
Patterson. The duo has a long
history of collegiate coaching
experience and recently spent
the 2011 boys’ season with
Wayne High School.
Along with a change in
coaching staff comes a
change in scenery. The program will now host its home
matches at the Fairborn
Memorial Field House located adjacent to the Fairborn
Baker Middle School facility.
The varsity and junior varsity
teams will also be breaking in
brand new uniforms this season donated by the Fairborn
Skyhawk Athletic Club.
The Tri-State Tri-Match
will begin at 11 a.m. with
Holy Cross and Fairborn followed by Holy Cross and
Wapahani at 12:15 p.m. and
finally Wapahani and
Fairborn at 1:30 p.m.
Following the tri-match the

will be providing a meal for
all the teams in attendance

Cleveland Browns
Browns release Steinbach, lose Hillis
By TOM WITHERS
AP Sports Writer
CLEVELAND (AP) — On the second day of free agency, the Cleveland
Browns cut loose a reliable player and
parted ways with a problematic one.
The team released veteran offensive
guard Eric Steinbach, once a major
acquisition who missed last season
following back surgery and was due to
make $6 million this season.
Also, running back Peyton Hillis
signed a one-year deal with Kansas
City, ending his star-crossed stay in
Cleveland.
The 31-year-old Steinbach underwent an operation to fix a disc in
August and was forced to sit out his
out his fifth season with Cleveland,
which signed him to a seven-year,
$49.5 million deal in 2007. Agent Jack
Bechta was unable to negotiate a new
deal with the Browns. According to
■
Prep Basketball
■
Bechta, the team wanted Steinbach to
"take a significant salary reduction."
In releasing Steinbach, the Browns
will be further under the salary cap.
It's still possible Steinbach could resign with the Browns after testing the
open market.
"These types of decisions are the
difficult part of this job, especially
when it involves a player such as Eric
Steinbach," Browns general manager
Tom Heckert said. "Eric exhibited
tremendous leadership and passion for
the game during his time here. We
want to thank him for his contributions."
As for Hillis, the Browns kept open
the possibility of re-signing the former
1,100-yard-plus rusher whose 2011
season was loaded with unnecessary
drama.
With the Chiefs, Hillis will be
reunited with former Browns offensive
coordinator Brian Daboll, who was
with Hillis in Cleveland in 2007 when
he rushed for 1,177 yards and 11
touchdowns. He'll also play for former
Browns coach Romeo Crennel.
After agreeing to his deal with the
Chiefs, Hillis tweeted: "Appreciate all
my fans in Cleveland for the support
given to me in my time there. Can't
wait to get back on the field and go to
work in KC."
Last week, Browns general manager Tom Heckert said the club was still
interested in re-signing Hillis, who
changed agents three times in the past
year as he tried to work out a longterm deal with Cleveland. Hillis' contract issues bled into the regular season, when he was sidelined with a
hamstring injury and angered his
teammates by sitting out a game with
strep throat.
He's run away on start anew.
Steinbach proved to be money well
spent by the Browns. He played in 62
of 64 games — every offensive snap
in 2009 and 2010 — before hurting
his back during training camp and
undergoing surgery. Steinbach, who
played four seasons in Cincinnati
before signing with Cleveland, has
been working hard to get back in
shape and believes he can still play at
a high level.
When Steinbach was lost for the
season, rookie Jason Pinkston filled in
at left guard alongside Pro Bowl tackle Joe Thomas and did a solid job.
The 6-foot-6, 295-pound Steinbach
was a presence on and off the field for
the Browns. He and his wife,
Caroline, have been active in the
Cleveland community.
Steinbach released a statement
thanking the Browns, owner Randy
Lerner and Cleveland's fans.

All of that work will be needed Friday at 3 p.m. when the Eagles
square off against another private school powerhouse, Shaker
Heights Hathaway Brown (20-5), which is on their way to the Final
Four for the sixth straight year.
The three-time defending Division II state champions Blazers
posted their 27th straight win to get to the state. Last year, Hathaway
Brown defeated Carroll in the D-II title game, 54-51.
Hathaway has a trio of juniors that are at least six feet tall. Vanessa
Smith, 6-foot-1, Nia Marshall, 6-foot-1 and six-foot-four Stephanie
Poland.
Smith is the top scorer for the Blazers and Marshall can score as
well. Poland uses her length to alter shots around the rim.
While watching film yesterday, the Eagles remained confident
that they can find a way to win in Columbus.
“I feel like we can play with them and I think we can overcome
their size,” said Bellbrook’s six foot sophomore post, Chea Taylor,
who has performed well against other talented inside players this
year. “She’s (Poland) is tall, but I think I will have a strength advantage.”
Junior Erin Dorn can make shots during crunch time of game.
She’s ready for the challenge of playing against the Blazers.
“The nerves might be there at first but we have played in big
games and big arenas, so I think we will be ready Friday,” Dorn said.
And of course you cannot talk Bellbrook hoops without the mention of senior Leisha Crawford. She took over the second half against
Carroll and helped push the Eagles to victory. She’s ready to do it
again Friday.
“We feel a sense of pride in representing our school and community by going to Columbus,” Crawford said. “I think we all feel confident that we can play with them and win the game.”
Tincher, who was a standout athlete at Bellbrook and then
Wilmington College, is very proud of his squad making it to
Columbus.
“I feel very fortunate to be a part of all of this,” he said. “I am glad
to have a front row seat to watch what these girls have accomplished.
This is very special to the area and the community and the school.”

GREENE COUNTY —
Greeneview’s Ashton Lovely
was named second team AP
All-Ohio for D-III and
Cedarville’s Emily Sheridan
garnered Honorable Mention
honors for D-IV.
GOODYEAR,Ariz. (AP) —
Aroldis Chapman wants to be a
starter and took a big step toward
that goal with a new pitch and
new focus.
Chapman pitched more than
two innings in a big league game
for the first time, allowing one
run over three innings in the
Cincinnati Reds' 9-4 loss to a
San Diego Padres in a splitsquads game Wednesday.
Chapman revived a split-finger fastball while allowing four
hits, including a homer to Andy
Parrino.
"I threw some split-finger
fastballs today," Chapman said
through interpreter Tomas Vera.
"The Reds asked me not to
throw that pitch when I first
signed with them but now since
I'm a starter they told me to go
ahead."
The Cuban defector is being
converted into a starter and is
competing for the fifth spot in
the Reds' rotation. He is the only
left-hander among the group.
As a reliever, Chapman relied
heavily on a fastball clocked as
high as 105 mph, but as a starter
he needs to develop another
quality pitch.
What he is primarily focused
on is throwing strikes.
"Chapman had close to seven
walks per nine innings," Dusty
Baker said. "That's a lot. He was
pretty good today. He gave up
some hits but only one run."
Chapman insisted he knew he
allowed to many walks.
"No one told me that I needed
to cut down on walks. I've been
focusing on throwing more
strikes. My concentration wasn't
always there last year because of
personal problems.”
"It has been a good ride in
Cleveland and I hope it can continue,"
he said. "I'm proud to say that the
offensive line has been a bright spot
through the past few seasons. It has
been a privilege to play for the city of
Cleveland and its rich tradition. Mr.
Lerner has always treated me with
respect and I sincerely appreciate the
opportunity to work for him and his
organization.
"I will continue to work with the
Browns through my agent in hopes of
striking a deal that is practical and fair
for both sides. In the meantime, I will
explore other opportunities. If I do
move on, I want to thank the people
and fans of Cleveland who have treated my family and I with great support
and hospitality. If my time here comes
to an end, I want the people of this
great city to remember one thing; 'You
stay classy Cleveland!'"

Vermont forward Luke Apfeld hugs forward Matt Glass (34) after they defeated
Lamar 71-59 in an NCAA first-round college basketball tournament game,
Wednesday in Dayton.
McGlynn scores 18 points,
Vermont stops Lamar
By RUSTY MILLER
AP Sports Writer
DAYTON (AP) — It's been
seven years since Vermont's
signature win in school history.
The Catamounts think it's
about time for another.
North Carolina, are you
paying attention?
Freshman Four McGlynn
came off the bench to score 18
points and Vermont grabbed
an early lead and hung on to
beat Lamar 71-59 on
Wednesday night in a firstround NCAA tournament
game.
Matt Glass added 11 points,
Sandro Carissimo 10 and
Brian Voelkel had 12 rebounds
to help the Catamounts earn a
spot against the top-seeded Tar
Heels on Friday in
Greensboro, N.C.
Their only previous NCAA
tournament win was a stunning 60-57 upset of fourthseeded Syracuse by the 13thseeded Catamounts in the first
round of the 2005 tournament.
"The Syracuse game was a
huge win for Vermont and the
community," Voelkel said.
"Obviously, we're going to
come into North Carolina with
a lot of confidence and hopefully we can pull off another
upset and give the people of
Burlington something to cheer
about."
The Catamounts (24-11)
shot 50 percent from the field,
blending an inside presence
with McGlynn's touch from
the perimeter.
But the America East tournament champions will be
severely tested down where the
skies are Carolina Blue.
"Obviously, North Carolina
is one of the best teams in the
country," first-year
Catamounts coach John
Becker said. "They've got a
roster of future NBA stars.
We're just going to do what we
do — continue to play our
brand of basketball."
McGlynn, the only player in
all of Division I to lead his
team in scoring (12.0) without
starting a game and yet playing in every contest, provided
punch to Vermont's offense.
He entered in the first half
and immediately ignited a 130 rally that gave the
Catamounts a lead that they
never relinquished.
"It was my first NCAA
tournament game. I thought I
played pretty well," McGlynn
said after hitting 5 of 9 shots
from the field including 3 of 5
3-pointers and adding 5 of 6
free throws. "I got in a good
flow. I give all the credit to my
teammates."
Vermont's ability to hang on
to a lead has been a rarity at
University of Dayton Arena.
Both Mississippi Valley State
and Iona built big leads and
then blew them in first-night
losses to Western Kentucky
and BYU, respectively.
Devon Lamb and Mike
James each had 16 points for
Lamar (23-12), which had

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Ohio
State has four sophomore
starters and one bad NCAA
tournament memory.
The Buckeyes were knocked
out of last year's tournament in
the regional semifinals by a
jumper by Kentucky's Brandon
Knight with 5 seconds to play. A
No. 1 seed last year, the
Buckeyes felt their season ended
way too soon.
A No. 2 seed this year, Ohio
State starts a run at a 10th Final
Four when it plays 15th-seeded
Loyola (Md.) on Thursday night
in the second round of the East
Regional.
"I just think it affected everyone a little differently last year,"
sophomore guard Aaron Craft
said. "Everyone kind of took a
step back and felt what they
could do to make the game
change. At the same time I think
we did a good job of trying to
move on. We can't live in the
past. Figure out a way to help
this basketball team be better,
because it's not the same as last
year."
The Buckeyes (27-7) were a
tri-champion of the Big Ten this
season. Loyola (24-8) finished
second in the Metro Atlantic
Athletic Conference and won
the conference tournament to
seal its second NCAA tournament berth, 22 behind the
Buckeyes.
"I know what a great team
Ohio State is. It's an honor to
play them," Greyhounds coach
Jimmy Patsos said. "We probably have little chance of winning
the game. Four minutes at a
time, we'll see what we can do."
Ohio State's Jared Sullinger
was a first-team All-America
last season as a freshman. He
averaged 17.6 points and 9.3
rebounds this season while earning All-Big Ten honors.
"In March you enter the tournament, records go out the door.
It's not about what conference
they're from," Sullinger said.
"Doesn't matter what is the
record. Everybody is fighting
for their life. We got to understand that tomorrow is not a
promise. I think that's the
biggest motto this basketball
team has to embrace is:
Tomorrow's not a promise."
Sullinger sounded like someone who believes that when he
talks about Loyola, which had
the first 20-win season in school
history in 2011-12.
"They're a very athletic basketball team. They like to get up
and down the floor. Love transition," Sullinger said. "A lot of
guys can score the basketball for
them. I mean, they have five
guys averaging double figures
so they're a very balanced team.
One person is not going to beat
us. It's a team effort. We have to
stop everybody."
That's what Patsos is afraid
of.
"We'll still run and press
against them," said Patsos, a
longtime assistant to former
Maryland coach Gary Williams.
"Ohio State wants to play their
way. If you play their way, you're
not going to beat them. I think
they can win the national championship this year."

No. 1 Kentucky starts NCAA title quest today
Hilltoppers (16-18) on
Thursday just 75 miles away
from home.
"What game? Is there a
game?" Kentucky coach John
Calipari joked Wednesday
after he and his players
answered 15 questions ranging from the coach's name
surfacing in NBA circles to
the fashion statement the
'Cats were making with snapback hats.
It's easy to forget the
Hilltoppers.
They struggled so much
this season that when they
held a promotion for $1 tick-
ets only about 2,000 fans
showed up. Nearly four times
as many Wildcats' fans
watched Kentucky practice
Wednesday at the KFC Yum!
Center.
"It's going to be a crazy
environment," Western
Kentucky guard Jamal Crook
said. "They pack their fans in
the arena everywhere they go.
So you know it's going to be
crazy."
Western Kentucky was a
longshot to even be here and
is a 25-point underdog. But
the Hilltoppers have won
seven straight games, coming
from behind each time, culminating with Tuesday's
record rally.
With President Barack
Obama in attendance,
Western Kentucky overcame
an NCAA-record 16-point
deficit with less than 5 minutes to go in a 59-58 victory
over Mississippi Valley State
to become the sixth team to
win a game in the tournament
with a losing record.
"We're expecting to throw
the first punch out there and
do something tomorrow that a
lot of people haven't seen
before," said Hilltoppers
guard Derrick Gordon, a
teammate of Kentucky's
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist in
high school at St. Patrick's in
New Jersey. "Nobody's ever
seen a 16 seed take down a
No. 1 seed, so we're just trying to make history."
The Hilltoppers have had
tournament success against
Kentucky, knocking the
Wildcats off in 1971 on the
way to the school's only Final
Four that was later vacated by
the NCAA because of rules
violations.

group. They've fought back
against every foe since falling
to 9-18, never folding even
after coach Ken McDonald
was fired in January after a 511 start and replaced with

won't die."
Even if they acknowledge
all this winning — and travel

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