VIEWPOINT THE SYLVANIA HERALD Page 5

Elusive memories Letters to InnerViews

I write wonderful
columns in my sleep-
deeply philosophical,
great topics, Pulitzer-
Prize-winning works
to stir the soul. But, by
morning’s light, I can’t
even remember what they
were about.
Dreams are difficult
to recall but memories of
our past are a different
story.
I can remember how
customers had to parallel
park at the old Sylvania
Post Office on Main
Street. If I couldn’t find a
spot I could just pull into,
I would drive around and
around until I found one.
That site is now an office
building, and I don’t
know if clients have to
parallel park.
Getting a pedicure
at the beauty salon on
the northeast corner of
Sylvania at McCord is
vivid in my memory
because it was in a
building that once
housed the Church of the
Nazarene (before that, it
was a school). It’s now a
RiteAid at that corner.
Looking back at
ancient yearbook photos,
the seniors always look
so funny looking and old.
Old-fashioned hairstyles,
dated eyeglass frames
and clothing always
made them appear to
be about 30 years old. I
righteously felt that didn’t
apply to my generation.
Yet, if I happen to see a
bevy of prom goers at a
restaurant in the spring,
I always think, “Gosh…
look at those dresses,
and their hair, and their
makeup! I can’t believe
they’re in high school!”
So logically, I guess my
senior photo is just as
dated.
I just read the new book
written by Marlo Thomas.
You know her; she’s
married to Phil Donahue,
the old talk show host.
She was the star of “That
Girl” and was the real-
life daughter of Danny
Thomas of “Make Room
For Daddy,” one of my
favorite old shows. Read
this paragraph to anyone
under thirty, and they will
say “Who???”
Remember when,
Thinking
about
yesterday
By Sheila
Painter
if someone received
annoying crank phone
calls, they’d have to file
a police report? Then a
tap would be installed on
their phone line to find
out who was making the
calls? There was no such
thing as caller ID, then;
it would have made the
process so much simpler.
Long distance calls were
so expensive, it was a
special occasion to call
someone far away!
There are many more
Sylvania memories I can
recall, like when Sylvania
branch library moved
into the Major Magic
plaza while they were
renovating their building.
I took my kids for story-
time there, and it looked
so weird seeing the books
crammed into such a tiny
storefront space. Many
items were in storage for
that year and not even
available. I’m sure glad
it happened, though,
because our current
Sylvania library branch is
so beautiful and a true joy
to visit.
I recall the brief time
when the Burger King on
Monroe Street, now gone,
had a giant inflatable
jumping thing set up.
We had never seen such
a thing at a hamburger
place before. Now,
inside playgrounds are
common.
My favorite discount
shopping was done at
Basix or the Pharm. Just
memories now. Every
now and then, I come
across an old package in
my cupboard with one of
their price stickers on it.
Nowadays, there aren’t
even price stickers!
I may not recall what I
had for lunch yesterday,
but old memories are
vivid. What are your
old fond Sylvania
memories? Share them at

Dear neighbors,
My family and I recently
moved to Sylvania. Before
we decided on Sylvania,
my wife spent hours
researching the schools
all the way from Dundee
to Toledo and ultimately
chose to live here based
on that comparison. We
figured that if the schools
are good, then the city
must be safe, city services
must be superb and the
residents must be the kind
of people we would like to
have as neighbors. That is,
good schools meant good
neighborhoods. When
the levy issue failed last
November we started to
worry. My wife and I are
well educated so we are
not worried about our
daughter’s education. We
have the capacity to teach
her what she needs to learn.
I am, however, worried
about the environment
in which she grows up.
If the schools are not
well funded, then the city
will lose what makes it
Sylvania. Home values
will certainly go down,
driving down the taxes
collected by the city. As
a result the infrastructure
will crumble, city services
will get worse and
Sylvania will not be a place
where people will want to
move. I understand that
some people are annoyed
after passing a levy just
two years ago. We are
To the Editor:
Winter weather has
blanketed much of the
nation over the past several
weeks, and the storms
are taking a toll on all of
us. Perhaps even more
important is the impact
this weather has had on
our nation’s blood supply.
You may not realize it,
but every two seconds,
someone in the United
States needs a blood
transfusion. The American
Red Cross was forced to
cancel more than 750 blood
drives in January alone,
resulting in a shortfall of
over 28,000 scheduled
blood donations.
asked to pass another one,
an operating levy this
time. Times are tougher
now and we are trying
to save as much as we
can. But according to the
Community Update 2010,
the levy’s cost would be
$150 a year for the owner
of a $100,000 home.
According to Wikipedia
the median income of a
household in Sylvania
is about $74,000. Is this
really a high price to
pay? We will be living in
this city for a long time
and we must approach this
important issue rationally
and not emotionally. We
must think long term. If
you heard that a city of
20,000 residents is laying
off 100 teachers, would
you choose to move there?
If the schools get worse,
what sort of neighborhood
and neighbors do you
expect to have? Isn’t $150
a year (for a $100,000
home) a small price to pay,
versus risking a further
drop in your property
value? What sort of city
would you like to live in,
and what is it worth to you
to live there? Those are
the questions we must ask
ourselves.
It is very easy to tarnish
a good reputation but very
hard to build one.

The Week Ahead: Feb. 20 through Feb. 26, 2011
Aries (March 21-Apr. 19)
When it comes to finances, it’s really important to use caution
and balance when spending money. If you are planning to make
a purchase, next week will be a much better time energetically
to do so. Stay grounded this week and everything will work
out.
Taurus (Apr. 20-May 20)
Relationship issues come to a head this week. What have
you been avoiding in your life? Whatever it is face up to it and
have the conversation you need to have in order to clear the air.
Don’t be afraid of the outcome. It will go better than what you
think it will.
Gemini (May 21-June 21)
Issues with family arise this week when there is a lack of
communication. Your frustration gets to a boiling point and
you just can’t take it anymore. Speak your mind but it’s best to
use caution with your words. Remember you can’t always take
them back.
Cancer (June 22-July 22)
There’s a lot of energy and a lot of needed space for you this
week. That long-needed break that you’ve been wanting for the
last few months is finally here. Take time for yourself and don’t
make a lot of plans. Remember to just be in the moment and
breathe.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Emotions are up and down this week making you feel very
uncertain about things in your life. Know that outcomes can
always change depending upon what you embrace and how
much you love inside. Take time to put positive thoughts in
your mind and release negative ones.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Over the last three weeks, you haven’t been feeling well and
finally you are getting your energy back. Now, it’s time to talk
about the things you have been tucking away. Make sure that
you use clarity in your conversations with the people in your
life.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
It’s time this week to really, really set some goals and make
some decisions. Make sure the balance you are looking for is
about you. Get in touch with what is deep down inside your
heart. You might be surprised at what you can make manifest
when you do this.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
This week is all about letting go of the things that you hold
against yourself. You know that self blame, doing bad things and
feeling sorry for yourself does not serve your highest good. Let
go and forgive yourself. It’s time to manifest new beginnings.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
This is a week that feels a little up and down. You’ve been
feeling like you are not sure which way you are going. If you
have been dating a Sagittarius, you may feel like your head is
spinning. Take time this week to find clarity. Quick decisions
aren’t always the best.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Financial issues come up this week as you find yourself
in a little bit of a bind. Don’t fret because it’s only temporary.
Holding negative thoughts and worrying will only make matters
worse. So, stay positive and things will ease up for you sooner
than you think.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
This is the week for you to breathe. Things have been crazy

(born 1932), whose work

World of Fernando Botero
that opens later this spring
at the museum.
Tom Loeffler, who
organized the print
exhibition, noted that
the Baroque period,
roughly 1600– 1750, was
inspired by the Catholic
Church, which wanted to
display realistic images to
influence its congregation.
Artists responded by
Overall, 62 percent of
TARTA’s non-TARPS rid-
ership reduction was the
result of Toledo Public
Schools cutting TARTA’s
student service.
Total non-TARPS rider-
ship was down by 776,444
riders, a 23 percent reduc-
tion compared 2009’s total
ridership. Of that reduced
number, 485,319, or 62 per-
cent, of those rides were in
the student category, defined
as students riding TARTA
buses using passes from
Toledo Public Schools.
“At the beginning of
2010, we didn’t anticipate
TPS’s action. It turned out
to be the largest category of
ridership reduction record-
ed by TARTA for the year,”
Gee said.
Also, effective Dec. 27,
2009, TARTA was forced to
put into effective sweeping
schedule revisions based on
projections it would lose
$900,000 in tax revenue
as a result of falling prop-
erty tax values and increas-
ing foreclosures. TARTA’s
main source of revenue is
two property tax levies.
These changes impacted
all of TARTA’s nine service
areas and involved the ma-
jority of its fixed-line ser-
vice routes, including elim-
ination of some routes, and
changes in frequency for
Call-A-Ride and TARPS.
The cutbacks represented
six percent of TARTA’s to-
tal service.
“As it turned out, our
budget loss from tax rev-
enue reductions was higher
than expected at slightly
more than $1 million; and
the service cuts, as expect-
ed, resulted in ridership
losses,” Gee said.
Gee also pointed to
“comparatively” low fuel
costs in 2010 as a reason
many individuals chose
to drive their vehicles in-
stead of using TARTA’s
service. Average price for
regular gas in Ohio fluctu-
ated during 2010 from a
low of $2.41 per gallon of
regular gas in mid-February
to a high of $3.18 per gallon
of regular gas on Dec. 29,
according to the web site
ohiogasprices.com.
TARTA’s 2010 total
non-TARPS ridership was
3,298,806, a reduction from
4,075,250 in 2009.

“Most of my books are

Dr. Judi Nath, professor at Lourdes College, recently
co-authored an anatomy and physiology book. This is
her fifth published book.
cycle. As soon as one
publishes, I have to
begin work on another. It
really is a never-ending
process and I always
have a ‘working copy’
sitting on my desktop. I
am continually marking
notes for corrections,
suggestions, additions,
deletions and re-
organization for the next
edition.”
Dr. Nath says the first
book she wrote was in
fact decades before ever
becoming a published
author. “I still have
two books that I wrote
on anatomy in the 5th
grade - apparently I was
destined to enter biology
and become an academic
author!”
