The Icon received this request from a Main Street business owner. We've also stepped into this "scat" or whatever you'd like to call it.
Would you be able to put something on the Icon regarding people walking their dogs and not cleaning up their messes?
Especially along Main Street businesses! We have had several issues since last fall with a dog(s) pooping on the sidewalks.
Not to provide too much detail but mess appears to come from a large dog. Today there were about six or seven large logs right in front of the double doors to our building.
A group of Ohio Northern University students and their professor are researching the concert and how it impacted the Ada community, according to Harry Wilson of ONU's management and information systems.
This May 9th marks the 40th anniversary of the event at ONU’s newly-built King Horn center. This was during KISS’ Dressed to Kill tour and they were on the verge of becoming very famous.
"We have reason to believe that KISS played Rock & Roll All Nite for the first time ever live at the ONU concert," said Wilson.
There are crop circles (you won't find them in Bluffton), and ice circles (and now you will find them in Bluffton).

Here's a definition from the Internet:
An ice disc, ice circle, or ice pan is a natural phenomenon that occurs in slow moving water in cold climates.
Bluffton photographer Dennis Morrison provides Icon viewers with an interesting series of photos that are more difficult to take than you might at first think.
Last fall he photographed scenes at the Bluffton University college cabin and Riley Creek along Bixel Road.
Then, following the recent heavy snowfall, he repeated his photography.
The result is an interesting collection of two scenes - one from fall and the other from winter.
Open the attachment at the bottom of this story to view his work.
The Icon “lost and found” classified ad posted on the evening of Feb. 3 read: FOUND: A little boy lost one of his favorite toys at a Bluffton home basketball game. I did not get a name of his mom. But I did finally find it. She can contact me at: [email protected] - Thanks, Daryl Shields.
Sounds like an almost hopeless loss.
Then, 12 hours later, on Feb. 4 this email arrives at the Icon:
