Fairborn Ohio News February 23, 2015

As you see below city of Fairborn is putting the finishing touch on the road construction that seems like it never was gonna end here in Fairborn. Some of the roads are really in bad shape in Fairborn and it seems like with the taxes that we pay that the city could get it together and do a better job than not let the road to get bad as they have been here in Fairborn over the years. Some may times they just want to make excuses and just go through the motions and sometimes it gets really really old.

FAIRBORN — Motorists may have noticed construction activity on Dayton-Yellow Springs as the final phase of several years of improvements began this week.

DP&L began working this week on utility pole and street light relocations ahead of contractor RB Jergens, who will perform the remaining work on the Dayton-Yellow Springs Road Improvements Project.

“Phase III of the Dayton-Yellow Springs Road project begins this week as DP&L is already relocating signals. RB Jergens begins their portion of the project the first week in March,” said city public relations specialist Katie Lewallen.

Due to funding constraints this overall project was designed and constructed in three different phases. Phase 1, from I-675 to Southlawn Drive, was completed in 2008 at a cost of $1,201,532. Improvements included roadway widening and resurfacing, new curb and gutter on the north side, new traffic signal installed at the relocated Community Park entrance and Park Hills Drive, decorative fencing along the park property and a water main replacement.

Phase II, from Beaver Valley Road and Ironwood Drive, was completed in June 2013 and included roadway widening and resurfacing, new curb and gutter, storm sewer modifications, traffic signal modifications at Five Points and a water main replacement, at a cost of $1,044, 950.

Phase III involves the section of Dayton-Yellow Springs between Beaver Valley Road and Southlawn Avenue. The roadway will receive a number of improvements including the addition of a westbound lane, new storm sewers, modifications to the signal at DYS and Southlawn, and installation of a decorative curbed median island between the access road and DYS.According to City Engineer Don O’Connor,

The following story below you'll see that the president of the Wright State University is making excuses Agan covered his butt, because of the menu that was posted, some have felt that it was racially motivated. Personally I think it was this an honest mistake in people just need to relax a little bit. I'm not saying that we don't have to be sensitive towards people, but at same time isn't there other things that are more important that we can focus on. Instead of talking about what were doing wrong let's talk about what were doing right as a society and as a culture. One thing we need to do is we need to respect each other and not this assume that the other person is doing something that is racially motivated.
The president of Wright State University and its dining services vendor have apologized for a Black History Month menu that featured fried chicken and collard greens.
The menu screens at the Ohio school also offered mashed potatoes and cornbread under photos of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and other black leaders. The Dayton Daily News reported (http://bit.ly/1DGCPii ) that people circulated images of it on social media, calling it offensive and disrespectful. Fried chicken has long been associated with racial stereotyping in the United States.
President David Hopkins sent an email Thursday asserting the university's commitment to diversity and pledged to prevent a repeat.
"I apologize to anyone hurt by the display," Hopkins wrote. "To our credit, the menu was quickly removed. But the larger question remains: Why was it done? I will find out. We will take steps to prevent this kind of behavior occurring in the future."

congratulations go out to Dr. Soin who has an office in Beavercreek Ohio and I personally have visited him for some issues that I was having I have to say that he is very committed that none of his patients get addicted to any type of pain medication.
Dr. Amol Soin, Medical Director of the Ohio Pain Clinic, with an office in Beavercreek, has announced the development of a treatment for diabetic neuropathy pain, which is an investigational, non addicting/sedating pill. Dr. Soin and his team filed a patent last February and filed an Investigational New Drug Application with the FDA in December, 2014 paving the way for clinical tests to be done locally starting within a few months.

A co-inventor of this medication, Dr. Soin points out that over 300 million people worldwide suffer from diabetes, and this number is expected to grow by over 50 percent by 2035. News reports note that the diabetes epidemic shows no signs of slowing in the United States and around the world. This new pill features enteric coated, time released sodium nitrite which stimulates blood vessel growth and has been shown in a previous study to significantly reduce pain in patients suffering from diabetic neuropathy without being addicting or sedating.
