2104 Van Wert County Fair is open
BY ED GEBERT
DHI Media Editor
egebert@timesbulletin.com
VAN WERT One hundred fifty-
eight. Thats how many times Van
Wert County has seen the opening day
of the Van Wert County Fair. The day
has changed many times since 1855,
the location has changed, the number
of displays have changed and the dress
of the fair-goers has certainly changed
but what has not changed is the fact
that opening day is widely-anticipated
and widely-celebrated.
Day One of Fair number 158 went
well on Wednesday. Temperatures,
which had been on the hot and
muggy side earlier in the week,
moderated to a high of a bearable
83 degrees just before 4 p.m. with
a relative humidity of 65 percent.
However, many people were still
able to break a sweat walking the
midway and searching for their
favorite traditional food vendors.
Landeck students try out green thumbs
Landeck Elementary School students and staff planted a garden at the end of last school year as a
school project. Over the summer, the staff took turns tending the garden. The students were excited
to see how much the garden grew over the summer when they came back to school this week. Some
of the teachers treated their students with snacks made from the garden such as salsa or carrots.
Above: Students gather in the pumpkin patch. They include Audrey Violet, Jaiden Mossing, Griffin
Mericle, Bailey Hile, Luke Rode, Kellen Carder, Gavin Hageman and Sheldyn Fetter. This is the second
year for the project. (Submitted photo)

unteers will grease the wheels for

Carnival. Activities will begin at

because of the extended week-
end, many former residents
return for the festivities.
We see a lot people come
back to Ottoville for the carnival
because they get that extra day,
Moreno said. Its like a home-
coming of sorts.
In his fourth year of a leader-
ship role for the event, Moreno
said the committee has really lis-
tened to sponsor and participant
feedback when planning for the
next year.
We talk to a lot people dur-
ing the event and then look at
Facebook and other social media
to see what everyones talking
about after, he said. We find out
what we did well, what we fell
short on and what people would
like to see us offer.
The main attractions for the
2014 Ottoville Park Carnival
include Detroits Fifty Amp Fuse
performing on the main stage
from 8:30 p.m. to midnight
Saturday. Fifty Amp Fuse is mak-
ing a repeat appearance for this
years event and will again per-
form a life multimedia spectacu-
lar that celebrates six decades of
both American and British pop/
rock hits.

Motorcyclist avoids collision,
receives minor injuries
A motorcyclist received minor injuries on Tuesday afternoon after falling
from the vehicle while trying to avoid a collision with another vehicle.
Michael Landrie, 64, of Van Wert was riding his motorcycle eastbound
through the intersection of West Fifth and North Main streets at 12:41
p.m. Tuesday. He observed a vehicle, driven by Nancy Mahlan, 54, of Deca-
tur, Indiana, who was traveling westbound on East Fifth Street, turning
left into his path. Landrie took evasive action to avoid colliding with the
vehicle and fell to his right side onto the roadway. The vehicles did not
collide. Mahlan was cited for failing to yield the right of way when turning
left. (DHI Media/Stephanie Groves)

NFL suspends Browns star
WR Gordon for 2014 season
By TOM WITHERS
Associated Press
CLEVELAND Josh Gordons
wait is over and so is his 2014 season.
Now the star wide receivers career is
in peril.
The Browns learned Wednesday that
Gordons indefinite suspension by the
NFL has been upheld and he will miss
at least 16 games for another violation
of the leagues substance abuse policy.
A repeat drug offender, Gordon had
appealed the penalty, hoping it would
be reduced so he could play this season.
The NFL, though, came down hard
on Gordon, who must now pay the price
for stepping out of bounds.
The league announced that arbitrator
Harold Henderson supported Gordons
yearlong suspension for marijuana use.
The Pro Bowler, who was subject to
more frequent testing, will begin serv-
ing his suspension immediately and the
league announced in its statement that
his eligibility for reinstatement will be
determined following the 2014 season.
In the meantime, Gordon is not
allowed to practice with the team, attend
meetings or other club functions.
Browns general manager Ray Farmer
expressed some disappointment at the
decision but said the team has no choice
but to move ahead without Gordon.
While we may have strong feelings
on the timing and the process of this
decision, we have also consistently com-
municated that we will focus on what we
can control in our day to day approach,
Farmer said in a statement. Right now
that is preparing our team for the 2014
season and at the same time, supporting
Josh however we are able under NFL
guidelines during his suspension.
The Browns had feared for months
this would be the outcome and now
that its official, the club will
have to somehow make up for
the league-leading 1,646 yards,
18.9 yards per catch and nine
touchdowns Gordon produced
last season.
Id like to apologize to
my teammates, coaches, the
Cleveland Browns organization
and our fans, Gordon said in
a statement. I am very disap-
pointed that the NFL and its
hearing office didnt exercise
better discretion and judgment in
my case. I would like to sincerely thank
the people who have been incredibly
supportive of me during this challenging
time, including my family, my agent, my
union, my legal team and the Cleveland
Browns staff.
While hes out, Gordon, who served
a 2-game suspension for a drug violation
last season, will need to pass drug tests,
comply with treatment and apply for
reinstatement with Commissioner Roger
Goodell before he plays again. Gordon
could possibly return inside a year if he
stays clean.
Gordon met with league officials
in New York on Aug. 4 to appeal his
suspension. As the days past, there was
growing speculation he might not be
punished to the letter of the collective
bargaining agreement. But Henderson
sided with the leagues initial ruling
after an exhaustive process.
The Browns have known Gordon
could be banished for some time and
theyve been eager for a resolution to
his case, which hung over their train-
ing camp. He continued
to practice and played in
Clevelands first three exhi-
bition games.
Gordon fought the sus-
pension by hiring attorney
Maurice Suh to represent
him at the appeal hearing.
Suh, who had successfully
gotten a suspension reduced
for Seattle cornerback
Richard Sherman, argued
that Gordon tested positive
for marijuana due to second-
hand smoke. Gordons representatives
also said test results of his samples were
inconsistent and should be thrown out.
There was speculation the league
might go softer on Gordon following the
public outcry after Baltimore running
back Ray Rice was suspended for two
games on a domestic violence charge.
Instead, the league put Gordon on the
sideline for all 16 games and will wait
to see how he behaves before deciding
whether to let him back.
Gordon didnt help his cause with
two legal issues as his case dragged
on. He was charged with drunken driv-
ing after his arrest in Raleigh, North
Carolina, on July 5. In May, he was
stopped for speeding in Strongsville,
Ohio, and one of the passengers in his
car was cited for marijuana possession.

Kenseth likes title chances despite lack of wins
Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. Matt Kenseth was
a 5-time winner this time last year and an
established championship threat. He doesnt
feel any less confident about his title
chances this season even though he
has not visited Victory Lane.
Kenseth goes into Atlanta Motor
Speedway this weekend winless but
ranked a solid fifth in the Sprint Cup
standings. With just two races remain-
ing to set the 16-driver Chase for
the Sprint Cup Championship field,
Kenseth should make it in on points and
doesnt feel like he needs to go for broke
to get a win in the next two weeks.
When you try harder than your
hardest, thats when you always get
in trouble. Thats when you wreck,
Kenseth said. I dont know that we even need
a win. I believe in momentum, to a certain
point, but I dont necessarily need a win. Id
just like to have two solid weeks.
The field will be reset following the Sept.
6 race at Richmond and Kenseth believes his
Joe Gibbs Racing team is far more prepared
for a run at the title than they were a year ago.
That may seem strange considering
Kenseth had a dream debut season in the No.
20 Toyota, which he drove to a series-high
seven wins while taking Jimmie Johnson to
the wire before Johnson captured his sixth
title. But Kenseth is currently only 25 points
behind third-place driver Brad Keselowski,
a 3-time winner this season, and he points
to wrecks at Sonoma, Pocono and
Michigan for not having him closer
to the top of the standings.
So what needs to change?
Not much, according to Kenseth.
He doesnt think his team is very
far off from Hendrick Motorsports
and Team Penske and theyve
excelled at finishing higher than they
should. He doesnt believe he had a
third-place car at Bristol last week
but landed there through strategy
when he found himself in contention
for the win near the end of the race.
If we can just get that little bit
more we need, I feel like everything is in
place as good, or in some ways better, than it
was last year, Kenseth added. I feel like our
pit stops are better than they were last year.
Confidence and execution and planning are
better than they were last year. Everything
is right there, if we can just get that little bit
extra out of our cars that I know we need, I
feel like the rest of it is in place and we can
put together a string of races and be very com-
petitive and hopefully contend.

Gordon learns his
fate and it isnt nice
By JIM METCALFE
DHI Media Sports Editor
jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com
Finally, the National Football League has come
down with the expected calendar-year-long suspension
of the Cleveland Browns gifted but troubled (sound
familiar?) wide receiver, Josh Gordon.
I really wonder why it took the NFL that long it
must have seemed like years, especially for Browns
fans to come to a decision.
How many times must a guy screw up before he
gets set down?
To claim it was second-hand marijuana smoke
seemed, to say the least, an interesting legal move.
At worst, it seemed it was a dont blame me/it
wasnt my fault I was with these guys/I didnt know
what they were doing when they lit that match or
flicked that lighter and I smelled something funny
stratagem that only a er dolt would have accept-
ed.
Maybe the NFLs totally blown 2-game suspension
of running back Ray Rice forget everything else;
that was ridiculous also had something to do with
the wait.
Supposedly, the NFL is making changes in its
player-conduct policy to deal with it but apparently,
Rice wont be affected.
As far as Gordon, you hope for his sake he gets
some help and he can return next year.
However, perhaps it opens up another can of worms.
They just did a survey of players apparently only
82 guys responded who believe marijuana is no
worse than alcohol.
I also have read articles that there is a move among
some players it seems to be growing, too to ask
the NFL to allow marijuana use to deal with the pain
issue, especially since two states (Washington and
Colorado) have legalized it.
We shall see where that goes but if something hap-
pens quickly, you think perhaps Mr. Gordon will ask
the NFL to reconsider?
Hmmmm.

No reason to feel sorry for Furyk
By DOUG FERGUSON
Associated Press
PARAMUS, N.J. The good news for Jim Furyk is
that people finally stopped talking about his golf swing
that only a mother could love and a father could teach.
Now its whether he knows how to win.
Forgotten are his 16 victories on the PGA Tour. Among
full-time players, only Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson,
Vijay Singh, Davis Love III and Ernie Els have won
more times. Furyk has a major championship. He has
played on nine straight Ryder Cup teams, one short of
the U.S. record held by Mickelson. And per-
haps more impressive than his $60 million
in career earnings is that at age 44, he is the
highest-ranked American in the world.
Hes not in a rut on the golf course. Hes
in a rut when he talks to the media.
Since his last victory in 2010 at the Tour
Championship, Furyk has been in front eight
times going into the final round and has not
converted. The most recent occasion was
Sunday at The Barclays. He was tied for the
lead with Jason Day. Fifteen players were
separated by three shots going into the final
round, which is like having no lead at all. It
was anyones tournament to win. Just not his.
So when he was asked about another
Sunday when he didnt punch it in, Furyk
punched back.
I feel like every time I go to the press room, I under-
stand the questions coming and I feel like were in a
morgue, he replied. Like everyone is looking at me
with this blank stare and they ask me depressing ques-
tions. And they bring up the Ryder Cup the last time (a
singles loss to Sergio Garcia) and we go through Akron
(a double bogey on the 18th hole) and I leave there
like I lost my dog.
Its golf. I didnt die out there today. I dont expect
anyone to feel sorry for me.
Furyk doesnt have a great record as a closer. Not
many do. Even as Furyk was fighting to stay in the hunt
as he made the turn, Shawn Stefani spoke for just about
every tour player when he said, I picked the worst
sport for winning.
Love has 20 career victories, including a major. He
holed the winning putt the last time the Americans won
the Ryder Cup on European soil.
Love also had a stretch once that was similar to
what Furyk is going through now. He went six straight
tournaments over three years when he didnt win after
taking at least a share of the lead going into the final
round. In his last 12 chances, Love converted only two
of them.
Not everyone can be Woods. No one is.
Part of the problem for Furyk and so many oth-
ers is that Woods set a standard that no one should
be held against, whether its his untouchable record as
a closer (54-4 on the PGA Tour), making the cut in 142
consecutive tournaments over seven years or winning the
career Grand Slam twice before he turned
30.
And part of the problem is perception.
Theres no harm in criticizing Furyk for
having eight consecutive chances without
cashing in. Furyk knows as well as anyone
in golf that a player is judged by his score.
Its that simple. There are explanations. No
one wants to hear excuses, and Furyk rarely
offers any.
Whats amazing is that hes had that many
chances.
Furyk is a pea shooter in an era of heavy
artillery. Golf is about power and has been
for the majority of his career. He still has
been among the top players for two decades.
Even now, at age 44, he finished No. 3 in the
Ryder Cup standings.
A top player who considers himself a friend suggested
Furyk wouldnt be able to sustain a high level of play
on the PGA Tour for much longer. There were too many
players who were young, hungry, polished and power-
ful. That was four years ago. Furyk had chances in two
majors since.
Furyk recalls one writer who asked him in 2006 if the
game was passing him by. When he won the FedEx Cup
in 2010, he saw the writer and smiled.
Hes not out to prove anything. He is trying to win tourna-
ments. And he is being reminded more often than hed like
that its not easy and never has been. Hes also not trying to
lash out at the media.
I understand why yall ask the questions, he added. I
guess I want everyone to know that Im like, God, this is
kind of a sad conversation. I want to walk in there happy. I
guess Ive got to win to do that. So if and when it happens,
Ill have a big smile on my face.
Buckeyes expect Navys
offense to be a handful
By RUSTY MILLER
Associated Press
COLUMBUS Its already dif-
ficult enough to play Navy because of
the tough, dedicated and disciplined
players demanded by any service acad-
emy.
These guys are guys who are trained
to be fearless and theyre trained to
be relentless, Ohio State linebacker
Joshua Perry said. So we know that we
have to go full-go the whole game. Are
we prepared to play 60 minutes? Yeah.
But theres more. On top of that,
No. 5 Ohio State must get ready for
the Midshipmens lethal and unique
offense when they meet on Saturday in
Baltimore.
Navy is one of the few full-time
practitioners of the triple-option left at
the college level.
Last year, Ohio States defense was
riddled in consecutive losses to end
the season after a 24-game winning
streak. Cornerback Doran Grant was
asked whether he was worried about
how good the pass defense would be
this season.
Thats not what were worried
about, he replied. Were worried
about beating Navy. Thats what weve
been focused on this training camp.
They have a unique style of playing
offense.
The Buckeyes, who are opening
their 125th season, have an idea what
theyre up against. Navy came into
Ohio Stadium to open the 2009 season
against an Ohio State team that would
end up going 11-2, winning the Big Ten
and then beating No. 7 Oregon in the
Rose Bowl.
And the Midshipmen almost left
Columbus with a victory.
Navy cut a 13-point halftime defi-
cit to two with 2:23 left and had a
2-point conversion pass to tie it. But
Ricky Dobbs throw was picked off
by linebacker Brian Rolle and
he returned it for two points
the other way to seal a 31-27
victory.
The current Midshipmen,
coming off a 9-4 season which
included a win in the Armed
Forces Bowl, still follow the same
offensive philosophy under seventh-
year head coach Ken Niumatalolo.
Weve got to try to find every edge
and do everything we can, he said
earlier this week of the matchup with
the Buckeyes.
Navy has players who might not
be as big or as fast as those at Top-25
powerhouses but it levels the playing
field by using the option. The read-
and-react offense, predicated on split-
second decisions, sterling execution
and quickness, is unique in many ways.
We feel we have a wrinkle for
every (question), offensive coordina-
tor Ivan Jasper said with a chuckle.
Whether its going to work or not,
well see.
Junior quarterback Keenan Reynolds
leads an offense that was No. 2 in the
Football Bowl Subdivision last year
in rushing at 325.4 yards per game.
Reynolds ran for 1,346 yards and 31
touchdowns.
Hes their guy, Perry said. Hes
a guy who isnt necessarily a burn-
er, speedwise, but he has really good
vision and he knows where the seams
are. Once he puts his foot on the ground
and he gets vertical, thats what he
likes to do. We have to take really good
angles. We cant overrun anything.
Ohio State coach Urban
Meyer is aware of and wary of
Reynolds.
The Navy coaches and some
people Ive talked to think that
hes the best that theyve ever
had, he added. That takes
your breath away a little bit.
The Buckeyes defense has a bit of a
chip on its shoulder.
Many considered Ohio State a strong
contender to make the initial College
Football Playoffs this fall. Then quar-
terback Braxton Miller went down with
a shoulder injury that will cost him the
season.
Now, with freshman J.T. Barrett in
command of the offense, there are a lot
of people saying the Buckeyes no lon-
ger belong in the title discussion.
The defense believes it has to domi-
nate even against a volatile offense
like Navys option in order to
give its own offense time to adapt to
Barrett.
Oh yes, weve got to, lineback-
er Curtis Grant said. Defense wins
championships. Were going to come
out each and every day, high energy
and just do what we need to do to keep
moving forward.

NFL Preseason Glance
Furyk
(Continued from page 6)
The Cincinnati Reds put starting
pitchers Mat Latos and Mike Leake on
revocable waivers.
That means they have three options:
if some team claims them my guess is
more than one will, especially Latos
either the Reds can pull them back, let
them go straight up or they have 48 hours
to work out a trade with the offenders!
I pray this is not the dreaded fire sale
and rebuilding job that almost never
works.
That might mean they feel they cannot
make a rally to make the playoffs with
their current horrible, rotten, even medi-
ocre offense being incapable of getting
hot or even lukewarm and they are
gauging the trade possibilities now or in
the off-season.
Maybe they feel they can get some
offensive weapons for a stretch run or for
a minor rebuild next year and some team
might be willing to offer them something
to try and make their own run.
To me, Latos has ace stuff and Leake
is more of a number 2 or 3 guy with time
to develop, especially with the emphasis
on pitching in MLB.
Should something come of this, the
Reds must feel comfortable that Tony
Cingrani will be back and ready to step
into the rotation, especially as a much-
needed left-handed starter, or others in
the farm system are ready to assume
major-league roles.
Or else they will get top prospects for
these guys that are ready.
I dont have much hope in this matter.

Trivia
Answers to Wednesdays questions:
Dinner should be delayed no more than 20 minutes
for a late guest, according to the most recent edition of
Emily Posts Etiquette.
Bunge jumping was inspired by a centuries-old
ritual performed by natives on the island of Pentecost,
in the South Pacific Republic or Vanuatu. But instead of
leaping from great heights with secured bungee cords
attached to their ankles, the islanders take the plunge
from a crude 98-foot-tall tower with secured tree vines
wrapped around their ankles.

How does the Hanukkah menorah differ from the
menorah traditionally displayed in Jewish temples?

Friends does teen heartthrob Justin Bieber use for

The fair officially opened at 8 a.m.
with a few vendors ready for business.
Many exhibits were still being prepared
for the week. Weigh-ins were held in sev-
eral barns. Action at the Fairgrounds had
actually begun earlier in the week as Jon
Germann was crowned Jr. Fair King and
Sophia Wilson was named Jr. Fair Queen
on Sunday. On Tuesday night, 19 local
truck tuggers competed in the Tug-a-Truck
competition at the Grandstand. Pre-fair
winning trophies went to Spencervilles
Matt Sites in both the 5,500-lb. and the
7,500-lb. weight classes.
Every kids dream, the opening of the
midway rides, happened at 3 p.m. and two
hours later the official ceremonies were
held, opening the 2014 Van Wert County
Fair. A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held,
complete with color guard. This year, the
ceremonies were not held at the front gate
but at the Grandstand.
After the ribbon cutting, the Van Wert
County Fair Board, Van Wert County
Commissioners, Van Wert County Sheriff,
and Van Wert City Mayor all took their
positions to complete the ALS Ice Bucket
Challenge. The group took buckets full of
ice water over the head, delivered by many
4-H kids who were more than happy to
soak the officials.
The challenge is a current craze which
is designed to raise awareness and money
to fight the disease Amyotrophic lateral
sclerosis, or ALS, more commonly known
as Lou Gehrigs Disease. Van Wert County
Economic Development Director Sarah
Smith accepted the challenge on Tuesday
night before the crowd gathered for the
Tug-a-Truck competition.
Back on track Wednesday night were
the harness racers. Races will be held
again tonight, and Derby Day featuring
quarter horse and thoroughbred racing is
set for Sunday at noon. It will be the 122nd
time Derby Day has been held in Van Wert
for the fair. Only a few venues for horse
racing are left in Ohio; Van Wert has a
rich tradition.
The debut of the fair dog show helped
wrap up Day One. The show, held at
the Farm Focus Arena, attracted a small
crowd, excited to watch the dogs be put
through their paces. A revival of Farm
Focus itself began on Wednesday and will
carry through to today with vendors and
speakers lined up for the two days. On the
agenda for the two days are speakers talk-
ing about GMOs or genetically modified
organisms, drone demonstrations, aquatic
ecosystems and other ag topics, designed
to be reminiscent of the days when Farm
Focus would pack in thousands at loca-
tions around the county.
Fair-goers are encouraged to come
out today for Kids Day when admis-
sion will be just $3 for adults and kids
admission is free. And remember the
fairs Lunch Ticket Program. Today and
Friday, come out to the fair from 11
a.m. - 2 p.m. and enjoy some food, take
in the animal or other shows, then when
upon exiting the fairgrounds, the admis-
sion price will be refunded. Its like a
quick visit to the Van Wert County Fair
for free.
