2011 Canal Days Chair Tony Wehri, left, and Mayor Michael Gallmeier lead the toast to the city at Thursdays annual event. BY NANCY SPENCER [email protected] DELPHOS Five hundred Delphites raised a glass to the citys achievements Thursday evening at the 2011 Canal Days Toast to the City. Mayor Michael Gallmeier and Canal Days Chair Tony Wehri led the toast, telling those in the capacity crowd they should be proud to call Delphos home. The Pimpas family, John, Penny Gerdeman and Paula Nakos, brought the Greek flavor for the Grecian Nights theme chronicling how they came to Delphos. Their father, Gust Pimpas, traveled back to Greece in 1955 with his mother, who was recently widowed. While riding with his cousin in a horse-drawn wagon, Gust caught a glimpse of his future wife, Joann, on the balcony of her familys home. It was love at first sight and the pair married on June 19, 1955. Dad always said he got

On June 8, 1955, the newlyweds boarded the SS Andrea Doria for the two-week voyage to the United States. A little more than a year later, when approaching the coast of Nantucket, bound for New York City, the Andrea Doria collided with the eastbound MS Stockholm of the Swedish American Line in what became one of historys most infamous maritime disasters. The couple first settled in Canton and Gust ran a laundromat with his bride putting her sewing skills to use sewing on buttons and mending garments. After the laundromat caught fire and burned to the ground, the pair moved to Waterloo and Gust managed a restaurant. When the eatery closed, he became a truck driver, passing through Delphos three or four times each week and liked what he saw. When a truck stop located just west of Delphos on Lincoln Highway came up for sale, the couple jumped at the opportunity. They piled us all in the woody station wagon and we drove the three or four hours from Waterloo to Delphos. Dad pulled in to a parking spot near Main and Second streets and said, This is where were going to live, Nakos said. The Pimpases also operated the Line Up Restaurant on Main Street in Delphos before purchasing TJs Pizza on West Fifth Street and the Topp Chalet was born. We love what we do; we love to cook and we love to celebrate, Gerdeman said. We get to do that every day. Following brief remarks by Canal Commission President Ed Ulrich, who invited everyone to visit the Canal Commission Museum, the Pimpas family led the crowd in several traditional Greek dances before turning the evening over to the On the Beach Band. Todays events include See TOAST, page 2

The rain we have had in the last few weeks has surprisingly helped some of the late-maturing corn. We have grain on some of the corn that was looking very poor in August. It isnt looking nearly as bad as it was but its still very immature.
Dr. Curtis Young, Van Wert County OSUExtension Educator cally nothing, Young said. He added that wet grain can attract mold and insect infestation. They must be stored dry, so farmers will likely wait to harvest crops to avoid spending money to artificially dry their grain. Farmers will want crops to dry down in the fields because they need their grain See CROPS, page 2

at 15 percent moisture for storage. If corn reaches black layer, which forms between the kernel and where it attaches to the cob when the grain reaches maturity, they may look at harvesting in mid or late October, said Putnam County OSU Extension Educator Glen Arnold.
He went on to say farmers hope corn will reach maturity before the first frost but if it has reached black layer and hasnt had a chance to dry further, it will be around 32-35 percent moisture. He added that soybeans are finishing their pods and will begin to ripen shortly. Beans, too, are behind schedule this year but will benefit from late summer rainfall. The Delphos Rotary Club would like to thank the many sponsors for their help and support of the summer Concert in the Park series. Thanks to all the organizations that provided concessions before the concerts: St. Johns Band Boosters, the Delphos Museum of Postal History Board of Directors, the Delphos Canal Commission, Upward Basketball/ Cheerleading Program, Trinity United Methodist Church Missions Committee and Cub Scout Pack 42 for making popcorn. Also thanks to the Delphos Parks and Recreation Department for keeping the park area clean and inviting. We are especially grateful to the Hanser family for the pavilion, which is beautifully placed to hold concerts. Most of all, we want to thank everyone who attended and enjoyed the concerts. Were sure the musicians appreciated your attendance as much as we did. The Delphos Rotary Club

COLUMBUS (AP) A death row inmate scheduled to die next month for slashing a 72-year-old womans neck during a robbery that netted the womans penny collection deserves mercy because of a horrific childhood, attorneys argued before the Ohio Parole Board on Thursday. Joseph Murphy was beaten, starved and sexually abused growing up in West Virginia, including an instance in which his father allowed a local moonshiner to rape the boy in exchange for a drink, attorneys told the board and argued in a filing presented to the panel. Murphys attorneys also said the board should consider the Ohio Supreme Courts 4-3 decision upholding Murphys 1992 death sentence, in which one of the three dissenting judges included then Chief Justice Thomas Moyer. The courts vote is significant because the high court is rarely divided on death penalty cases, and Moyer, who died last year, was a death penalty supporter who practically always upheld death sentences. Retired Justice Herbert Brown, the only surviving justice to vote against death for Murphy, told the parole board Thursday he had never seen such a tragic background. The state says Murphy should not be spared because he showed no mercy to victim Ruth Predmore in Marion in 1987 and has not shown remorse or personally offered strong reasons why he should be spared. Prosecutors told the board in a filing that Murphy threatened Predmore ahead of time with an extortion note. They also said that, as a boy, Murphy received help from social service agencies in four states. The board will make its recommendation next week to Gov. John Kasich, who has the final say on whether to spare Murphy. The execution is scheduled for Oct. 18.

YELLOW SPRINGS (AP) An Ohio liberal-arts college will welcome students next week, about two years after it was purchased by an alumni group after it closed due to financial problems. Antioch College in Yellow Springs reopens as an independent college, with classes starting Oct. 4. The 35 students arriving Sept. 24 for orientation will have their four-year tuition covered by the Horace Mann Fellowship, named after the schools first president. The southwest Ohio school founded in 1852 is known for its social activism and alumni that include Coretta Scott King and Twilight Zone creator Rod Serling. It closed in 2008 and was purchased by alumni the following year. As part of its bachelors degree programs, students complete six terms of full-time work, with the final assignment abroad or in a multicultural setting.

would give minority candidates another opportunity to have a seat in Congress. I think its far past the time for there to be more than one minority person in the state of Ohio, especially based on population, Williams said. Chris Redfern, the chairman of Ohios Democratic Party, told reporters Thursday that map does not ensure that another minority candidate could win the Columbus-area seat because primary battles could knock them out of the contest. Already, former U.S. Rep. Mary Jo Kilroy, who is white, has hinted she may run again under the new boundaries in the wake of her 2010 defeat to Stivers. The party is considering whether it would launch a ballot repeal effort of the proposed map, should it become law. Redfern said they were also looking at ways to challenge the maps legality. We are prepared to use every tool at our disposal to fight this unfair, anti-voter congressional map, he said. Senate Democrats are discussing whether to introduce their own map in that chamber, though it would be unlikely to get much traction. Republicans hold a 23-10 edge there. Sen. Keith Faber, who chairs the Senates redistricting committee, has said its too early to say whether the Senate will swiftly pass it. Faber said he thought the map was constitutional, and incorporates a lot of comments members received around the state. I think there is general acceptance that when you go from 18 to 16, in many cases youre allocating disappointment, Faber said Wednesday. A new congressional map needs to be adopted by Dec. 7, or 90 days before the March 6 primary, at the earliest. An elections bill that also cleared the House on Thursday would move the primary date to May, though it wouldnt immediately take effect. Democrats had earlier backed out of a deal to support the switch, protesting what they say is a rushed timeline for remapping the states U.S. House districts. Minority Leader Armond Budish had said that Democratic support for the immediate primary move, which requires seven Democrats to pass, was contingent on extra time being given for the public to review the GOP-drawn map.

Moderately confused
WASHINGTON (AP) House Speaker John Boehner describes himself as a pretty simple guy who sleeps well at night and doesnt get angry despite the frustrations of working with a Democratic president and his own oftenrecalcitrant Republican colleagues. Boehner, answering questions after a speech on jobs at the Economic Club of Washington D.C., also compared his youth, when he grew up with 11 siblings, to his current job. The chaos, he said, is the same thing I deal with every day. And one benefit of working in his fathers bar in Cincinnati was that you have to learn to deal with every jackass who walks through the door. Relaxed and joking, Boehner said he was happy that I got the job of Speaker after Republicans captured the House last year, but added that Im not having any fun. Somebody show me where the fun is. He said that while Im not leaving anytime soon, hed like to accomplish my mission and get out. He also said he has no interest in being the vice presidential candidate on the GOP ticket next year. Its hard enough for me to go to funerals of people I know, much less people I dont know. Boehner said he and President Barack Obama have a very good relationship although they come from different worlds and sometimes their conversations are like two different people from two different planets. But he said that during his ultimately unsuccessful negotiations with Obama last summer on coming up with a deficit reduction plan, I slept very well every night and I never worried about the outcome... Ive done the stress thing before. It doesnt accomplish anything. He said dealing with 87 Republican freshmen in the House, many with tea party affiliations, has not really been a big challenge, and that there were some more senior members who, God bless them, no matter what I do its not good enough for them. Speaking of his efforts to get Republicans to go along with the final deficit reduction proposal, he said that nobody on my staff ever heard me scream. I dont do anger. But he said there were a couple of freshmen, a couple of young whippersnappers, who seemed to have all the answers. Boehner, a smoker, said he told them that he wasnt going to open the door until he got their support and I said Ive got a week-and-a-halfs-worth of cigarettes in that chest over there. It still took about 45 minutes. Asked if he ever wanted to be a pro athlete when he was a high school linebacker, Boehner, who ran a plastics and packaging firm in Ohio, said, I always wanted to be a salesman and thats what I did.... I thought I was going to do that the rest of my life, but along the way I got involved in my neighborhood homeowners association and I ended up in the U.S. Congress... This could happen to you.
beneficiaries as campaign props such as Texas Gov. Rick Perry may have trouble reconciling campaign rhetoric with their records. Perry once made headlines by refusing $556 million in stimulus funds for his states unemployment insurance program. But since February 2009, Texas government agencies and businesses have received more than $17 billion from the recovery act. Thats more than any state in the union but one. And the influx of stimulus funds some of which Perry used to plug budget holes came over the same period Texas enjoyed significant job growth, an accomplishment Perry cites at nearly every campaign stop. But he railed against the federal policy in his 2010 book, Fed Up! Our Fight to Save America From Washington. We are fed up with bailout after bailout and stimulus plan after stimulus plan, each one of which tosses principle out the window along with taxpayer money, he wrote. Bachmann, a conservative firebrand who regularly knocks the federal stimulus, held a recent campaign event at South Carolinas Trident Technical College, an institution that last year received a stimulus grant to help boost its healthcare education programs. Critics cried hypocrisy, but her record as the representative for Minnesotas 6th Congressional District raises further questions.
His lawyers called to tell Buck of the reprieve and the inmate was praying in his cell when Texas Department of Criminal Justice spokesman Jason Clark approached. Praise the Lord! Buck told Clark. God is worthy to be praised. Gods mercy triumphs over judgment. I feel good. In its one-paragraph decision, the court said it stopped the punishment so it could further look at Bucks request, known as a writ of certiori. If the court decided against the writ, the justices said the reprieve would be lifted, making Buck eligible for receiving a new execution date. Buck was convicted of gunning down ex-girlfriend Debra Gardner, 32, and Kenneth Butler, 33, outside Houston on July, 30, 1995, a week after Buck and Gardner broke up. A third person, Bucks stepsister, Phyllis Taylor, also was wounded, though she has since forgiven Buck and sought for his death sentence to be commuted to life in prison. Bucks attorneys went to the Supreme Court after losing appeals in lower courts. A clemency request to the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles, all of whom are Perry appointees, also failed.
Solyndras gloomy future. An email from Greg Nelson, a White House official who had been involved in the planning of Obamas May 2010 trip to Solyndras headquarters, to a Solyndra executive downplayed a July 2010 news story in a trade publication that criticized the companys financial health. Seems B.S., Nelson wrote. A 2009 report by the Energy Departments inspector general warned that the DOE lacked the necessary quality control for the loan guarantee program, which was created in 2005 to support clean-energy projects that could not obtain conventional bank loans due to high risks. In July 2010, the Government Accountability Office said the Energy Department had bypassed required steps for funding awards to five of 10 applicants that received conditional loan guarantees. The report did not publicly identify the companies that were not properly vetted, but congressional investigators say one of them was Solyndra. The company was the first to receive a loan guarantee after the program was expanded under the 2009 stimulus law.

Jefferson freshman Kylee Haehn is ready to make sure this ball gets into the net as Lincolnview sophomore Lydia Myers is far too late to stop her Thursday evening. Megan Gilden was credited with this goal off a mishandle but Haehn netted a hat trick to lead the Wildcats past the Lancers 7-2.
and unleashed a 15-yarder that got just under the keeper and into the near side of the net. Just five minutes later, it became 5-1, courtesy of a Haehn run down the right side and 12-yarder from the wing that got inside that post. Were getting better in a lot of the phases of the game. What I wanted to see was the intensity we showed against Ottoville (the second match) and I saw that tonight, Drerup added. We also maintained it. There are always ups and downs in a match but we were more up than down. Overall, we played a good match and that is pleasing. Smith also saw some things she liked; just not enough. We had some moments there where we threatened, just missing one wide-open shot and then hitting the bar. That seemed to take the wind out of our sails, she added. Its so easy to let down, especially when youre trailing most of the time. Unfortunately, that is true for a lot of teams, especially one that is as young and
new to varsity as we are. The Wildcats continued to control the ball most of the second half and kept forcing J. Thatcher to come up with saves. They made it 6-1 at 24:04 when Haehn again made a run down the right wide and fired a 14-yarder to the other side, completing her hat trick. The Lancers got within 6-2 at 4:13 when McCleery hooked up with K. Thatcher behind the defense, setting up a 1-on-1 look against junior backup keeper Paige Miller (4 saves, 5 shots) and finding the back of the from in close. Delphos finalized the scoring at 2:18 when junior Jenna Moreo made a long run from midfield to the right wing and her 15-yarder found the left side of the net past sophomore backup keeper Kennedy Mengerink, who replaced J. Thatcher at 7:10 when she was injured. Lincolnview hosts Coldwater 1 p.m. Saturday; Jefferson visits Ada 5 p.m. Monday.

returned the serve to Grove with a kill. Columbus Grove ran off the next four points for a 24-17 lead before closing out the set on a serve into the net by Lincolnview after a sideout. We have found ourselves in big holes and have had a hard time coming through that, Lepley added. We have worked hard in practice to start strong and are working in practice, when we get to practice, to finish strong. I keep telling them dont wait for the other team to make mistakes because it may not happen. You have to finish it with a kill, block or ace. Thats the way we want to finish games, not waiting on the opponent to make a mistake. Coming off a big win in set two, the Bulldogs immediately went in front in the third set scoring the first five points. Lincolnview battled back to pull within 10-8. Thats where the comeback ended as Columbus Grove scored six of the next seven points for a 16-9 lead. Columbus Grove went up 24-9 before Lincolnview scored two straight points to trail 24-11. A kill by Riley Eversole ended the match. Nicole Langhals had 20 assists for the Bulldogs in the win and Stechschulte had four aces. Kelli Vorst and Rachel Schumaker both had nine digs. Columbus Grove won the junior varsity match in two sets 25-8, 25-9. Grove entertains St. Johns 10 a.m. Saturday, while Lincolnview hosts Parkway Monday.

that just went wide, hit a post, or were right at the keeper, Continental coach Toby Bidlack said. And weve had that at times this year. Hopefully we get that worked out. Their goalie did a real good job of reading angles and getting herself into the right position. A lot of the shots that went right at her was because she was in the right spot as she was moving her feet, especially the first half when we were taking shot after shot and she handled it well. Thats why it was close. The Blue Jays were able to end a long drought in the shot column when Courtney Grothouse finally took a shot near the 10-minute mark. Pirate goalie Leva Weller grabbed it and kept the contest scoreless. Kreeger got some help from her defense two minutes later when a defender headed a shot attempt over the goal after a Continental player chipped an attempt past her after she came out to play a loose play. Freshman Caitlin Geckle broke up this scoreless match with 5:10 left in the half as she put home a goal off a corner kick. Koppenhofer took the corner kick and played it into the box. Kreeger was unable to control the ball and Geckle was there to knock a shot home. The Pirates had a chance to make it 2-0 a little later as Taylor Williamson got behind the Blue Jay defense, picked up a clearing pass from a Pirate defender and went at Kreeger 1-on-1. She sent her shot just wide of the left post as Continental had a 1-0 halftime lead. Both teams had their chances on goal in the second half but neither team was able to score until the Pirates did with 12:02 left. Kiana Warnement scored the Pirates second goal on a penalty kick after a Blue Jay defender was called for a foul

just inside the box. Warnement sent a shot towards the left side of goal that got past Kreeger. Williamson finished the scoring with 6:20 left when she blasted a shot towards Kreeger after getting past a Delphos defender. Kreeger was able to get her hands on the attempt but was unable to stop it. The second half, the game was a little more wide open, which we think plays into our hands, Bidlack added. That allows us to use our speed and get our players into 1-on1 situations. We got a little stretched out between our forwards and defense but our forwards made a few plays. Taylors shot was hit so hard, there the shot just trickled past the keeper. Overall, I thought
The Cougars record sits at 4-4-1 after the victory. Just over a minute into the match, Van Werts Joey Hurless got the ball and found a hole in the Spartan defense.

The 28-minute scoring drought was broken when Daniel Thompson found Caleb Markward open in front of the net for another Cougar goal, which made the
we played well but we will need to play better as we face Miller City Tuesday night. Munoz felt a slight halftime adjustment in their formation allowed them to get a few more shots on-goal. We changed our formation a little bit for the second half, Munoz said. We tried to move people around and I felt our rotation was better in the second half. We were getting some good runs and looks at the goal but for some reason we just cant seem to get one in the goal. Kreeger was credited with 23 saves in the match and Weller had nine saves for the Pirates. St. Johns hosts Elida 1 p.m. Saturday.

Less than a year after 9/11, a New York Times columnist stunned the newspapers remaining conservative readers by suggesting that both the Vatican and al-Qaida were on the wrong side in the global war against oppression. The struggle within the church in recent decades, he argued, is interesting as part of a larger struggle within the human race, between the forces of tolerance and absolutism. That is a struggle that has given rise to great migrations (including the one that created this country) and great wars (including one we are fighting this moment against a most virulent strain of intolerance). After all, he noted: This is ... the church that gave us the Crusades and the Inquisition. The symbolism of Is the Pope Catholic? increased a year later when the self-proclaimed collapsed Catholic who wrote the essay was selected as the new executive editor of the Times. Now, shortly before stepping down as editor, Bill Keller has ignited another firestorm with a Times column arguing that religious believers -- especially evangelicals and conservative Catholics -- should face stricter scrutiny when seeking higher office. After all, he noted, if a candidate insists that space aliens dwell among us, isnt it
On Religion
crucial to know if these beliefs will shape future policies? Yet Keller also claimed: I honestly dont care if Mitt Romney wears Mormon undergarments beneath his Gap skinny jeans, or if he believes that the stories of ancient American prophets were engraved on gold tablets and buried in upstate New York, or that Mormonisms founding prophet practiced polygamy (which was disavowed by the church in 1890). Every faith has its baggage. ... I grew up believing that a priest could turn a bread wafer into the actual flesh of Christ. What gave this manifesto legs online was his decision to draft tough questions for suspicious believers such as Romney, Rick Perry, Michele Bachmann and Rick Santorum. After all, he argued, voters need to know if a candidate is going to be a Trojan horse for a sect that believes it has divine instructions on how we should be governed.
For starters, he said, journalists should ask these candidates if America is a Christian nation and what this would mean in practice. And if elected, would they hesitate before naming a Muslim or atheist as a federal judge? Voters also need to know if candidates hold orthodox Darwinian views on evolution. Journalist Anthony Sacramone, who blogs at the journal First Things, was one of many conservatives who immediately turned Kellers questions inside out. For example, he thought reporters could ask some candidates: Do you think that anyone who believes in the supernatural is delusional? If so, do you believe they should be treated medically? Heres another one: Do you believe that there is such a thing as life unworthy of life? Explain. The problem with Kellers essay, argued Amy Sullivan, author of The Party Faithful: How and Why Democrats are Closing the God Gap, is that it settled for aiming tough questions at Republicans, instead of seeking relevant questions sure to probe the beliefs of all candidates. If a candidate brings up his faith on the campaign trail, she noted, blogging for Time, there are two main questions journalists need to ask: (1) Would your religious beliefs have any bearing on the actions you would take in office? And (2) If so, how?
Another reason Kellers piece created controversy and hostility was that it contained crucial errors, such as grouping Santorum -- an active Catholic -- with GOP candidates affiliated with fervid subsets of evangelical Christianity. It didnt help, noted Sullivan, that his piece read like a parody of an outof-touch, secular, Manhattan journalist, with its references to evangelicals as mysterious and suspect. It was also easy to contrast the tone of Kellers broadside with the values he preached in a 2005 letter -- entitled Assuring Our Credibility -- that tried to address the concerns of his newspapers critics, including many who frequent religious sanctuaries. It is especially important, he concluded, for all members of the Times staff to make a concerted effort ... to stretch beyond our predominantly urban, culturally liberal orientation, to cover the full range of our national conversation. ... This is important to us not because we want to appease believers or pander to conservatives, but because good journalism entails understanding more than just the neighborhood you grew up in.

impetigo on my face and ear. I took two 20 mg pills of prednisone for one week, then one, but would like to know if there is a home remedy I can try instead. DEAR READER: Impetigo is a bacterial infection, so I am unclear why you were given prednisone. However, as long as the impetigo hasnt spread, you might try 1 tablespoon of white vinegar diluted in 16 ounces of water. Soak a cotton ball or gauze pad and apply to the area for 20 minutes two or three times a day. You might then want to apply an aloe vera ointment to the cleansed area following each application. Or, simmer 1/4 cup each of rosemary leaves and thyme in 2 cups water for about 15 minutes. Apply the cleansing mixture in the same manner several times each day.

Tomorrows Horoscope
SATURDAY, SEPT. 17, 2011 You could build quite a reputation for your leadership qualities in the year ahead. Because youll place great importance on organization, youll take the initiative and let others fall in line. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -Once it becomes clear to others that you truly believe in yourself, they will believe in you as well as the ideas you espouse. Remember that old adage: To thine own self be true. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- The aspects indicate that good fortune might come to you through others rather than from anything you do for yourself. The more friends you have, the better your chances of hitting the jackpot. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -Even when dealing with groups, youll have the unique faculty of making each person feel special and like theyre the center of your attention. This will gain you a lot of friends. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Two personal objectives can be achieved by finding a way to intertwine them. Once you do, each project will enhance the other and make them both more appealing. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Even if you dont deliberately seek competition, there is a good chance that it will find you. Dont be intimidated by it, however, because a challenge will stimulate your talents. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- This might be the day to attempt something that youve wanted to do for a long time. Even if you think youre not ready, try it anyway. You might surprise yourself at how well you do. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -Dont wait on your counterpart to take the initiative to start what needs doing -- you could wait all day. Get going yourself, and youll see others quickly falling in line. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- If youre sharp enough, youll spot several opportunities that could enhance your holdings and/or add to your resources in a significant manner. Keep an eye open. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -Instead of looking for others to lean upon, you should roll up your sleeves and do what needs doing yourself. Youll be glad you got off your duff. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Focus your efforts on something that youve been nurturing for far too long. Rearrange your normal schedule to accommodate what youd like to get off your to-do list. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -This is a day when things that worked out well for you in the past will once again turn out positively for you now. Concentrate on endeavors that youve had a hard time completing. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- There is a good chance that something you failed to achieve in the past tanked merely because you didnt try hard enough. Give it a go again, and persistence could pay off.

1,100 others, Brackens remains were never identified among the ruins of the twin towers. For his family, this place is the closest they have to a gravesite. Taking a rubbing of Brackens name may be the closest they can come to bringing him home. First seeing the memorial, I felt a little bit of sadness, said Brown, who lost three relatives in the attacks. But I felt better now that Ive seen their names and taken a rubbing. Mourners often are drawn to objects that represent a connection to the person they lost, said Charlton McIlwain, an American culture professor at New York University who has studied death rituals. People were looking for something tangible to hold onto, something that has some kind of emotional connection, for them, with their deceased loved one, he said. The memorial, placed in the footprints of the twin towers, was designed with the rubbings in mind. One earlier version of the design would have included raised names with water flowing over them, but that idea was scrapped after a family member worried it would prevent people from making mementos from their loved ones names, said memorial president Joe Daniels. Ultimately, planners chose to create bronze parapets displaying the visual litany of names, the letters cleanly cut out of the bronze, with only light and emptiness beneath. Now the memorial foundation is handing out rolls of white paper, ordered months ago, sized exactly so that visitors can make name rubbings. After testing a number of options, planners selected a black soy wax similar to a crayon that they believed made the clearest impressions, which theyre giving out along with the paper. Eventually, the memorial may charge visitors for a rubbing kit, Daniels said. But for the foreseeable future the materials will be free.
been kidnapped, but that story quickly unraveled as police arrested Elisa and charged her with forging a ransom note. More details about the case including Elisas abuse of Zahra were revealed during the hearing. Zahras death was caused by undetermined homicidal violence, medical examiners said in documents. An autopsy was conducted even though authorities hadnt recovered many bones, most notably the girls skull, months after she was reported missing. Several bones showed cutting tool marks consistent with dismemberment. During the hearing, Dietrich and Adam Baker begged Elisa Baker to tell them where the rest of the remains were located. What I truly want to see is Zahra be given the dignity and respect she deserves, Dietrich said.
Answers to Thursdays questions: Jacob was involved in an all-night wrestling match in the Bible (Genesis 32:22-31). Famous bird painter John James Audubon didnt really love birds. Because he wanted to paint them as realistically as possible, he shot them and posed them in naturalistic poses. But since dead birds lost their color so quickly, he shot as many as 100 birds a day for one painting. Todays questions: When dining out, what food is ordered the most in the United States? Who was the last U.S. president who never made it to college? Answers in Saturdays Herald. Todays words: Grummels: sediment, dregs Totipalmate: web-footed The Outstanding National Debt as of 7:30 a.m. today was $14,724,017,852,210.
