NFL Owners See Value in Super Bowl Chaplains, U.S. CEOs See Similar Benefit in Growing Trend

The Carolina Panthers touched down this week in the sunny San Francisco Bay Area as heavy favorites in this weekend’s Super Bowl 50, due to their stellar 15-1 season and their all-star quarterback Cam Newton.

A greatly overlooked trend for Carolina and the majority of NFL teams, including their Sunday opponent Denver Broncos, is the use of a workplace chaplain supported by the team owner. All 32 NFL teams have a chaplain on their staff, either as a full or part-time member, or in a voluntary capacity from an athlete service organization Athletes in Action.

Marketplace Chaplains, America’s largest and original workplace chaplaincy organization, has several hundred companies in North America providing workplace chaplains with the support of strong company leadership.

“It’s one more thing we can do to not only say we care about our employees, but show how we care about our employees and their families,” said Johnny Bledsoe, President of Waco, Texas-based Sturdisteel, Inc. “It’s easy to give away a trip, but to have a real impact in someone’s life who is facing life’s problems is certainly more important.”

Panther team Chaplain Mike Bunkley, a former college running back, has been with the Panthers since the team started in 1995. Panther’s owner Jerry Richardson, in the past, has publicly spoken about the importance of a personal faith in his life. “The owner and the coach have been very supportive of our work here and have really opened some doors,” said Bunkley, who flies with the team to each road game and has gained excellent access. “We realize we’re not at home this week, we’re in a different

environment, but it’s still time to praise Him. This is a great group of guys to work with and I’m thrilled to be here.”

While not in the overpowering media spotlight of one of the world’s biggest sport events this week, Marketplace Chaplains work with a wide variety of employees on a voluntary, confidential basis.

Currently, Marketplace has nearly 2,000 chaplains serving in over 3,668 company locations, helping over 624,003 employees and their family members.

“We had some people wonder what would happen when we started the chaplain program, but now our employees would be in an uproar if we tried to take it away,” said Steve Luse, CEO of The Luse Companies, located outside of Chicago.

Regardless if the Panthers win or lose in pro football’s ultimate game, Bunkley said his

role is to help in the joy and problems of their life. The same can be said for Marketplace Chaplains.

“While millions of Americans will tune in to watch the Super Bowl this weekend, few may notice the role the two team chaplains play in what is more important than on-field wins or losses,” said Marketplace CEO and Executive President Doug Fagerstrom. “The same is true for the visionary workplace leaders who invite Marketplace Chaplains into their workplace every day.”

For more information on this unique employee benefit which has been featured with Marketplace Chaplains on CNN, NBC Nightly News, and in the Washington Post, the New York Times and Bloomberg BusinessWeek, visit www.mchapusa.com.

Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas Dismissed Complaint Filed by County of Cuyahoga

The Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas, on January 26, 2016, dismissed the complaint filed by the County of Cuyahoga pertaining to its 2005 purchase of the Ameritrust building and the 2007 purchase of the adjoining parking garage at the corner of East 9th Street and Prospect Avenue.

The Court found that the County’s

claims pertaining to its purchase of both properties were time barred. The County filed its complaint on May 30, 2014 which is outside of what the Court found to be the statute of limitations for all claims filed.

In finding in favor of defendants the Court determined that the statute of limitations on the County’s claims

began to run on or around July 29, 2008 when publicity surrounding a search warrant on former commissioner Jimmy Dimora’s office in the County’s former administration building became known. The Court also found that a contractual release in a Cease Work Contract by and between the County and one of the defendants also barred the County’s

claims.County Law Director Robert Triozzi

stated that the County is reviewing the Court’s analysis and identifying matters that could be raised on appeal. The County has until February 25, 2016 to file an Appeal with the 8th District Court of Appeals.

WalMart to Shut Down in BedfordShoppers rushed in to get last

minute deals as the Bedford Walmart prepares to close its doors Thursday night.

The retail giant announced it would close 269 stores worldwide.

No one really understands why this Walmart is closing, even city officials

are baffled. “We were notified at 8:15 Friday

morning and I believe their press release went out shortly after 9,” Michael Mallis, Bedford City Manager said.

Walmart purchased the land and built this supercenter eight years

ago, making a significant investment in the community, but suddenly, it didn’t fit into its portfolio.

Across the nation, Walmart departments are leaving grocery shopping voids. Many local stores closed their doors because Walmart moved in to take over.

And Bedford isn’t the first local retail to pack up and go. There was City View Center in Garfield Heights, which closed for “safety concerns.” That building still sits empty.

More than 300 people will lost their job after the closing.

The Cleveland Museum of Art Announces Upcoming Contemporary Exhibitions

To celebrate the Cleveland Museum of Art’s centennial year, the department of contemporary art has organized four solo exhibitions featuring a wide variety of artistic expression and concerns. At Transformer Station, Jon Pestoni: Some Years is the LA-based painter’s institutional solo debut that explores his blend of painterly tropes and psychological responses. Next is an exhibition focused on Dan Graham’s career-long analysis of rock music—fitting for the city where it all began. At the museum, Kara Walker debuts a new series of drawings in her exhibition opening in September. And closing out the year, the museum presents Albert Oehlen: Woods Near Oehle, a thought-provoking and unconventional survey, the largest exhibition of Oehlen’s work in the US to date. Additionally, Converging Lines: Eva Hesse and Sol LeWitt, organized by the Blanton Museum of Art, opens in April. Each exhibition is accompanied by a publication, furnishing in-depth material on each artist and their work. Additionally, Albert Oehlen: Woods Near Oehle features a “box set” containing a newly pressed EP, an exhibition catalogue, and a book of poetry, among other objects.

Bedford Schools’ V.I.P. Program Wants YOU!It takes many people from all

walks of life to support the teachers in the Bedford City Schools in the service of their students. Parents can provide a great deal of support to the school population. Also, talented community members from all walks of life, as well as local business partners, offer valuable real-world insights that allow the classrooms to open up their walls to the world around them in a very special way.

The District has recently developed a program that encompasses the helping hands and wisdom of these people, called the V.I.P. initiative (Volunteering Is

Powerful). This program was rolled out in all six schools this October. It encompasses all the volunteers that actively contribute their time to assist with the advancement of the students, whether it is in academic, athletic or fine arts programs.

There are approximately 200 adults currently working with students in various capacities. While the staff is grateful to all of these generous volunteers, the number of volunteers in the schools has decreased over the last several years. The Bedford staff would like to invite you to enroll in the V.I.P. program and join their powerful team of volunteers that serve the

students. Knowing that many people have very busy schedules, any help you can offer would be most appreciated, even if you cannot come in on a regular basis. Enrollment into the V.I.P. program should go through the school principals:

Show Your Heart Some Love: Panel Discussion and DinnerA Cleveland Clinic Healthy Community Initiative

Wednesday, Feb. 24, 2016 | 5 to 8 p.m.

LaCentre Conference and Banquet Facility, 25777 Detroit Road, Westlake 44145Please join us to hear renowned Cleveland Clinic experts from the Sydell and Arnold Miller Heart & Vascular Institute

discuss heart health and how to keep your heart healthy at every stage of life – with added emphasis on exercise and heart-healthy eating habits.

Free program includes health screenings, information booths and vendors, heart-healthy dinner and panel discussion.

For more details and to register online, go to clevelandclinic.org/HeartCommunityEvent.

An appointment with a cardiologist can be stressful, especially when you’re concerned about your health. In order to make the most of your cardiology appointment, there are things you can do ahead of time to ensure a more productive and positive experience for both you and your cardiologist.

“It always helps when patients come to their appointment prepared with any questions they have, and a list of any information that they want to share with or obtain from me,” says Chad Raymond, DO, a Cleveland Clinic cardiovascular medicine specialist who sees patients at South Pointe Hospital. “The relationship between a patient and their cardiologist is a true partnership – to achieve the best outcomes, we need to work together.”

Take control of your heart health by taking these proactive steps to ensure the success of your cardiology appointment:

• Get copies of your recent medical records and

echocardiograms and catheterizations – are the best for doctors to review along with the written report.

Tips for talking to your cardiologist.• Write down your symptoms, when they occur and what

makes them worse or better.• List your cardiac risk factors, family history is especially

important.• Compile a list of your medications – include prescription

medications and over-the-counter medications, including any vitamins and supplements.

• Also include a list of medications that you may have experienced an allergic reaction.

• Prepare a list of any questions.

“Patients should bring all of this information with them to their appointment. I also encourage them to bring a

spouse or someone they trust as a second set of ears, as they may think of additional questions or provide insight from a caregiver’s perspective,” says Dr. Raymond.

It can be hard to remember everything, so take notes during your appointment. And before you leave, ask how often you’ll need to follow up with your doctor, and what phone number to call if you have questions once you get home.

To schedule an appointment with Dr. Raymond or another Cleveland Clinic cardiac physician at South Pointe Hospital call 216.491.7380. Cleveland Clinic offers same-day appointments.

As a new school year begins and summer slowly turns to fall, I think about how the world is constant-ly changing. For some people, change is feared and avoided, for others change is exciting and seen as presenting new opportunities. Whichever view you have, change is certainly inevitable.

Those of you who have been patients of Jane L. Dodson, DDS & Associates may have noticed changes in our office.

After meeting your dental needs at 88 Center road for the past 29

years, Dr. Dodson is making a change. She is transitioning into a new career about which she is very excited. We wish her well in her new adventure and know that she will be very successful. I am proud that she has chosen me, Dr. Mychael Davis, to carry on the tra-dition that she has established over these many years.

Cleveland Metroparks Swear-In New Patrol and Explosives Canine Officer, Tyson

The newest addition to Cleveland Metroparks Ranger Department K-9 Unit was sworn-in this morning. Tyson, Cleveland Metroparks newest Patrol and Explosives Canine Officer, was sworn-in alongside his partner, Ranger Trevor C. Poole at the Board of Park Commissioners meeting.

Tyson, an eleven-week-old German Shepherd, is the newest canine addition to Cleveland Metroparks Ranger Department’s K-9 Unit. Tyson will serve as a dual-purpose patrol and explosives detection dog, joining K-9 officers Chase, Rico and Logan, and their handlers Rangers Will Collins, Mike Barr, and

Sgt. Tim Garris in patrolling the more than 23,000-acre Park District.

The addition of Tyson allows for proactive protection measures at Cleveland Metroparks busiest park activities. Explosives detection canines have become a common sight at large sporting events, concerts, popular area destinations and at other large-scale events. They are becoming part of a new direction in law enforcement. Five Ohio Universities recently received bomb-sniffing dogs as officials expand a state program that makes more of those canines available for safety needs on and off campuses.

The University of Toledo, Kent State University, Ohio University and Central State University, each received a dog trained to detect explosives. A dog for Cleveland State University received extra training to be part of general patrol operations, according to Ohio Homeland Security.

Canines trained in explosives detection offer an added layer of public security and serve as an important bridge to interact with the public in a positive manner. Additionally, explosives detection canines offer a safe resolution should a bomb threat occur, allowing for a quick return to normal business

operations.Other agencies that have canines trained

in explosives detection near Cleveland Metroparks include the Regional Transit Authority (RTA), the Shaker Heights and Cleveland Police Departments, and the University of Akron.

Tyson’s handler is Ranger Trevor C. Poole, who has been with the Ranger Department since 2014. Ranger Poole is a 2007 graduate of Youngstown State University, where he also completed his basic Police Academy Training, as an Ohio Certified Peace Officer.
