Cougars tough and fearless; Are they headed for Ohio?

I've always been interested in animals. I'm curious about their lives, what they do, and why they do it, which is why I ended up with a master's degree in zoology from The Ohio State University and 30 years of teaching high school biology. These days I pretty much know how squirrels will react in a given situation, where a rabbit will sit and where he'll go when jumped and the best places to hunt deer. But there's one animal I've never quite understood, one that makes me wonder why they do what they do. That's cougars, and especially why and how they attack humans.

Encourage kids to take tough classes|SCHOOL MATTERS - Wayne Babcanec

How can I encourage my child to consider some challenging classes for next school year? At Norwalk Middle School and Norwalk High School, students are in the process of signing up for classes for the upcoming school year. Often times, students are concerned that scheduling a challenging class might adversely affect their grade point average. More and more research, however, is backing up what many parents have always known. Most students, not just those who always seem to get straight As, can do well in tough classes if they are willing to work hard.

Chief: Cruiser at home is for K-9 officer

An issue was raised as to why a Willard Police officer is allowed to drive a cruiser home every day. The officer is the K-9 officer. The cruiser he drives is 5-years-old with well more than 100,000 miles. It was converted from a patrol car to a K-9 cruiser. The K-9 officer is allowed to take the cruiser home because of the nature of his work. He and his K-9 partner, Rexi, work nights. He is always on call and may need to respond to an incident as soon as possible.

Writer wrong about cruiser

In response to Lois Moore's Feb. 27 letter, ("Willard doesn't need more taxes") I believe a few points need clarified. I live at the residence mentioned with my husband, Officer Chris Kelbley of the Willard Police Department. The cruiser she mentioned is used to transport K-9 Rexi, the city's drug dog that was purchased in 2003 with much community support, who lives with us. The cruiser is outfitted with an enclosed cage used to protect Rexi in an accident. The cruiser is only for transporting Rexi when on duty, to training, to demonstrations or other official business. When Officer Kelbley and Rexi are off duty the cruiser is parked. This is a standard practice among other departments that have K-9 units.
