Vision Screening for Preschoolers
Waking each morning to the sight of the sun touching the earth with its wide array of colors is something that is often taken for granted. When vision is impaired -- especially in young children -- waking to a world where everything is a blur and colors are unclear can be very frustrating. Small children may not understand why they can't see things and often lose interest in reading, writing or playing. This is one of the reasons why early vision screening is so important.
Preschoolers depend upon their vision to learn tasks that will help ready them for school. Areas such as reading, learning to write and recognition of colors, shapes, letters and numbers can be affected if there is a vision problem. "Impaired vision may prevent a child from retaining interest in areas such as story time or coloring," says Dr. Liviu Saimovici, an optometrist for the Advance Eye Care Associates of New York. "As the interest in these areas fades due to vision difficulty, so does the level of education and learning."
Approximately 48 percent of all children have or will have some type of vision problem before reaching the age of 8, according to the American Academy of Optometrists. These vision problems may be due to an illness and will last only a few weeks or months or may be due to a genetic trait and may last their entire lives. Due to the variation of vision development in preschoolers, the AAO recommends that children receive at least one vision screening prior to school enrollment and continue to receive vision screening annually unless there is an indication of vision problems.
Acting Out
Children who are experiencing vision problems may exhibit inappropriate behaviors in frustration, anger or fear. These behaviors may include defiance; outbursts of anger; throwing books, pencils or crayons; self-isolation or even signs of depression. As the behaviors are a result of a child's emotions, parents are encouraged to approach their children with love and concern in an attempt to discover if vision difficulty is the root cause. "If a parent becomes frustrated with the child in return, the situation can escalate," says Saimovici. "This should be avoided as it could mask or hide the reasons behind a child's behavior as it relates to vision difficulty."
"My son wouldn't even let me read to him," says Karen Winniski, a mother from Chicago, Ill. "My husband and I would tuck him into bed at night and ask what book he wanted to read. He would usually say he didn't want a story. If we did read to him, he would turn toward the wall and not even look at the pictures. At the age of 4, you would think he would still want us to read to him, but he didn't. I knew something had to be wrong."
Is There A Problem?
Usually, preschool staff will help in detecting a problem with a child's vision and offer screenings throughout the year. However, if a child does not attend preschool the detection of a potential vision problem is then left up to the parents. "Parents can be tricky about it without letting the child know they are 'testing' them," says Saimovici. "Asking a child to look at something across the room while sitting at the dinner table to see if he/she can find it or if they squint to see it is one way a parent can 'test' their child. If a child does look at books or can recognize colors or shapes, making a homemade eye chart can also offer clues to the parents as to whether or not a child may have a vision problem."
Testing for preschoolers is done in a way that helps place the child at ease. As the letters are replaced with pictures, shapes and objects, the characters the children are asked to identify are very common and well known. "Some pediatric optometrists will make the visit fun to help put the child -- and the parents -- at ease," says Saimovici. "The children may state that they see a cow on the screen and soon the room will be filled with 'moos.' It's a simple process and one that can help eliminate various stresses and frustrations for the children and their parents."
In addition to frustration, fear and anxiety related to vision problems, parents may also find their child suffering from headaches while attempting to read, color or draw. "My daughter would get headaches almost daily," says Renee Wheeler, a nurse's assistant from Columbus, Ohio. "She was in daycare for about six hours a day during the week. Each day when I would pick her up, she would begin telling me about her day and then inform me that she had another headache. When I asked her doctor about it, he asked me if I had ever had her vision checked. I hadn't done it to that point, but within a week she went to see an eye doctor."
One Parent's Experience: Donna Wolf, mother of two from Evanston, Ill.
"I was shocked in preschool when my daughter Leah (then 4) came home with a note saying she failed a vision screening. Indeed, we went to a pediatric ophthalmologist who said Leah had severe astigmatism in both eyes. Astigmatism makes everything blurry, and kids who have it are usually born with it -- it doesn't develop. The good news is it usually doesn't get worse.
"I asked the doctor how strict I should be about making Leah wear the glasses. Her response was, 'Once she puts them on, she won't take them off.'
"When we saw her glasses and the degree of correction, I cried. The whole world had been a complete blur to her for all her years and we never knew. She didn't sit close to the television or squint or hold books very close ... because that wouldn't make it any better. She gave no clue that I could tell that she had any trouble. That was just the way the world was to her.
"I believe not being able to see much for those first years affected her personality. She was always cautious about entering into new situations. Not clingy, just observing a long time before joining in. I thought she was just sort of sizing things up socially. Now I realize she was just trying to see what was going on. Her fine motor skills got better at this point, too.
"I think vision screening should be a part of pediatric exams. We had all our checkups. Thank G-d she was in preschool, or we wouldn't have found out until kindergarten. I don't know why the doctor didn't test. She only would ask if we noticed any problems and since we didn't, she didn't.
"Getting the vision screening was worth the price of preschool. I will always feel indebted to them for that."
After a Diagnosis is Made
Once a vision problem has been diagnosed, the next step may be glasses. As small children fear being teased or made fun of, it is important for a parent to ease their child's mind and let them find glasses that they feel comfortable with. "Children know what they like," says Saimovici. "Parents should allow a child to pick their own glasses since they will be the one who is wearing them. Also, parents can help their child feel comfortable with their new glasses if they let the child know how good they look, how special the glasses are and how well they will be able to see with them."
Young children may not understand why they can't see well and may be frightened to tell anyone due to fear of what what's to come. Using subtle methods, explaining the process as it unfolds and allowing the child to ask questions can help in relieving that fear while they make their way to seeing all the world has to offer. "Vision problems are common in both children and adults," says Saimovici. "Letting a child know how special they are, regardless of how they see, will take the focus off of the problem and place it back on the child."

While Beating Up Republicans, Press Lets Obama Super-Sized Fib About His Job-Creation Record Pass
Since when does a "few" mean thirteen? The answer appears to be: "When Barack Obama says it does, and when the press won't call him in it."
Rush Limbaugh today talked about a January 25 speech President Barack Obama made at Conveyor Engineering and Manufacturing in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and pointed to a particular segment demonstrating in his view that Obama was deliberately "downsizing the American Dream." When I went to the actual speech at the White House's web site, I found a statement the President made about his administration's jobs record which was quite problematic (i.e., false), and which, despite the press's rips at Republican candidates who dare question the specifics of Obama's economic performance or the legitimacy of the economic recovery in general, received no press coverage I could locate:
Now, today, three years after the worst economic storm in three generations, we are making progress. Our businesses have created more than 3 million jobs over the last 22 months. If you look at a job chart, if you look at a chart of what's happened in terms of jobs in America, we lost 4 million jobs before I took office, another 4 million in the few months right after I took office, before our economic policies had a chance to take effect, and we've been growing and increasing jobs ever since -- 3 million over the last 22 months. Last year, we created the most jobs since 2005. And today, American manufacturers like this one are hiring again, creating jobs for the first time since the 1990s. And that's good news.Story Continues Below Ad ↓
"In the few months"?
My research on the meaning of "a few" indicates that though there is no hard and fast rule, most people believe that "a couple" is two and "a few" involves three. Even after bending the meaning curve upward a bit, there's no support for the idea that "a few" is thirteen, which is the actual time period to which the President deceptively referred where uninterrupted seasonally adjusted job losses continued, both overall and in the private sector:
Further, no one in the White House was claiming at the time the stimulus became law in mid-February 2009 that it would take a full 13 months to begin "to take effect."
Beyond that, the fall in full-time employment was worse, and its recovery has been weaker. Overall, that the current "recovery" is the worst since World War II -- by miles -- is indisputable.
At the Associated Press that day, Jim Kuhnhenn's coverage was headlined "Upbeat and on a roll, Obama showing some swagger," and didn't mention Obama's mischaracterization of his jobs performance. Neither did Helene Cooper's coverage at the New York Times. Speaking of mischaracterizing, the Kuhnhenn's case for "swagger" is pretty weak in light of the following sentence from his dispatch: "Arriving in Iowa on Wednesday, he jogged, grinning, to a rope line of a couple of dozen supporters." Wow, a whole couple of dozen.
Bigger picture, a Google News search on "Obama Cedar Rapids" (not in quotes, for January 25-29, sorted by date) returned 129 items in a 3:30 p.m. search. Add the word "chart," and it dropped down to one -- a full transcript posted at a local newspaper's web site.
But let any GOP candidate say anything harsh -- often completely truthful -- about where Obama's economy is, and you'll see swarms of "fact check" items get unleashed by the protective press.

The psychiatric view of "it could have been worse".
Submitted by drsamherman on Tue, 02/21/2012 - 5:11pm.
I hear this "it could have been worse" way too much from my narcissistic and sociopathic patients. It implies that the smallest of their efforts saved someone or something from a worsened condition, and also implies that the person making the observation is to be credited for doing something even if they did nothing. In other words, the conditions are set such the commenter is not at risk or is due some credit even for inaction. Constructively, it also permits the patient to avoid criticism for inaction or incorrect action and to preserve the narcissistic status quo. This is a perpendicular argument designed always to set the patient at the right angle with respect to assuring they will be talked about and praised. Those who agree or suborn the observation are enablers, and this is most evident with the media and BHO.
Case in point (patient is now dead so HIPAA requirements are discharged):
Over fifteen years ago, I had diagnosed a young male patient with Bipolar type II disorder with co-morbid cluster B symptoms heavily weighted towards narcissism. Cluster B is a delusional, self-absorbed, parasitic symptom grouping focused entirely on self. The ability, desire or even willingness to display empathy, sympathy or concern for others is soundly absent in most of these patients. In this particular case, the young man was on a horrible manic phase that just never seemed to end. He had all of the classic symptoms: push/rush of speech, thought and ideas; absolute intolerance of the feelings of others; and serious impulse control problems. He was placed into the psych unit by his parents and he was committed for a 30 day period commensurate with Texas law at the time. As I started to treat him, his symptoms worsened as he simultaneously detoxed from an ecstasy high. In other words, this patient was a real bear to treat. He was very cunning, and managed to get discharged at the end of his 30 day period while I was on vacation and another psychiatrist, who did not know the patient, was bamboozled by this young man. Not three hours after he was released, he went on an ecstasy bender with a bottle of Jack Daniel's. He wrapped his car around a house and seriously injured three people living in the house. His comments once he was detoxed? If you guessed "It could have been worse, but I am a better driver than anyone else!" That case reminds me of BHO and his enablers in the press.

Good story Doc...
Submitted by ontheright on Tue, 02/21/2012 - 5:45pm.
A little off topic, but to your point...I have a friend (recently disavowed) that exhibited the EXACT same behavior you describe in your story. I've tried, and tried, and tried to reconcile what this friend believes to be "our" differences and what I know to be reality. And like your story, this friend was also cunning; so much so that I nearly harmed my relationship with my family because I was so enchanted. (e.g. consistently dropping whatever I was doing, whether with my family or not, to run to the assistance of this so-called friend). I often questioned my perception of our relationship and even considered that I might actually be the culprit in the endless arguments and disagreements. However, after much reflection and caring outside input, I realized that I was only a small fraction of the problem.
Long story short; this type of self centered, narcissism is dangerous, IMHO. I have learned to move as far away as possible, and quickly too.
Thank you for your story - it further cements the logic of my decision to release my friend from the bonds of our one-way "friendship".

When the hell are the REPUGS going to quit taking a knive to a gun fight? The idiot spokespeople who are on TV for the REPUGS, just bligthly answer the questions from lib broadcast people, while the answers from the DIMWITS are from the three talking points that they came into the broadcast with, and nothing is going to stop them from saying them over and over.
Think, It's the Economy Stupid, the worst economy since the depression, etc. Well now it is the worst economy since the depression, it is the economy stupid, it is 15% unemployment rate according to Obama's CBO people. I have yet to hear that number from any GOP spokesperson, politician or any others except FOX. No lie, it is 15% according to the CBO. Every person on the air should be uttering this.
Where is the talking point of the number of people now drawing SS disability for mental illness after their 99 weeks have run out. I do not blame a father trying to feed his family from turning to whatever way he can bring in an income, I blame the idiot in the White House for ruining an economy further than it was. If you give Obama the 3mm created or saved jobs, it turns out over 125k per job. You should have given them the money without the politicians taking their cut, and the economy would be further ahead.
They should every time a dimwitted broadcasters touts the success of the auto bailout, say only in DC and in liberal television is a loss to the American People of 28 Billion dollars concidered a success. Obama put the companies through BK himself after giving the damn companies to the unions. Why are we not on the air with this?
Gingrich gave you the path, do not sit there and be a punching bag, call the reporters out, remind them that the Dem's have spokesperson on the show, you do not need to take on two to one. Get up and walk out on an interview, after you have had your say.

An Adams County probation officer and a 2012 graduate of the Adams County Drug Court program have been arrested on meth related charges.
They were arrested Friday night at the home of John Grotts at 207 Walker Street in Ursa. Officials say Grotts had been working as a liaison to the Adams County Drug Court program. He was charged with possession of less than 5 grams of methamphetamine, and unlawful use of a structure to violate the methamphetamine control act.
In a Monday news conference, Adams County State's Attorney Jon Barnard says Grotts has been an probation officer for more than 12 years and says there was never any reason to suspect him of drug related activity.
"This is a cautionary tale," Barnard said. "Illicit drugs in general, and methamphetamine in particular, are equal opportunity scourges. Drugs make no fine distinction about their targets or the destruction they wreak. That this may have occurred within an organization whose mission it is to conquer the scourge of drug addiction is evidence of that."
Barnard says officials were tipped to the scene after Grotts' neighbors reported suspicious activity at his home. Grotts has been relieved from his position and is on administrative leave, pending the outcome of the investigation.
Officers with the West Central Illinois Drug Task Force also arrested Devin Lawton, 35, on an outstanding warrant for unlawful possession of methamphetamine precursors.
Officers say the two had been living together in Grotts' home. They seized numerous items used to make meth there and also arrested a woman in connection to the search.
Barnard says they will continue to move forward with the Drug Court program, however, they are going over possible changes in procedure.
"This is a sad, and painful, moment, but it is just that; a moment," Barnard said. "The work of Drug Court, on the other hand, is a journey, the goal of which is to save lives."
"Make no mistake; we will deal with this," Barnard added. "Drug Court will move forward, its efforts undiminished, its successes continuing."
He says the investigation is continuing, and other charges are pending.

Miss U marched down the aisle Friday in her wedding dress and veil and vowed to follow Mr. Q forever in words like quack, quiver and quip.
"Dear friends, we are gathered together here today to witness the joining in marriage of Mr. Letter Q and Miss Letter U," Northwestern Elementary School Principal Ron Owings said. "This is a solemn occasion that should not be taken lightly because on this day, Mr. Q and Miss U will pledge themselves to be together forever and ever."
For thirteen years, the elementary school has been marrying the letter pair in a famous wedding ceremony.
If you ask Northwestern High School students to name the things they most remember about elementary school, the wedding always makes the list, Owings said.
It's become quite the affair, teacher Darvenia Smith said.
Friday, more than 25 family members came to watch the event.
A professional photographer captured the ceremony. Girls in the wedding party lined the aisles with flower petals as they walked to their spots at the front of the crowd.
Both lowercase and uppercase couples were present. Mr. Q and Miss U walked up one aisle. While Mr. q and Miss u walked up a second aisle arm in arm.
Both brides beamed in their white dresses and veils.
A choir of children wearing letters of the alphabet around their necks greeted them at the front.
Owings moved the ceremony forward until it came time for the vows.
Mr. Q and Mr. q were up first.
"I, Mr. Letter Q, do promise you, Miss U, to always stand beside you in word, in sentence and in paragraph and to forever make the sound 'qu,'" the boys recited. "This is my promise to you."
The girls, bouquets in hand, recited the same vows, and Owings pronounced the couples Mr. and Mrs. QU.
He asked them to turn, face the crowd and make their sound. And they did.
The choir of children erupted in song. It was a tune a Northwestern teacher wrote especially for the ceremony.
"Q and U, from this day, joined together they will stay," the children crooned. "U will always follow Q like most good friends often do."
After the ceremony, the children ate cupcakes iced with the letters Q and U and sipped fruit drinks.
Parents took photos of the wedding party and sifted through the construction-paper wedding program.
The program talked lovingly about the couple and the problems the two might have.
"Q will have to be understanding when other words need U," it said. "Words like umbrella and underwear have no need for Q. U will have to be there for Q in all words. Like other married couples, they will have their quarrels. Even so, they must stick together like quicksand to solve any quandaries."
Parents and children alike laughed during the comical ceremony.
Smith said that's the point. The unique activity will help kids remember letter pairings like Qu, Sh, Ch and Ph.
Teacher Dallas Calloway started the wedding ceremony in 2000. Since then, she became a Title I teacher at Howard Elementary School.
The wedding is useful when she is working with struggling readers, she said.
"When they're struggling to spell something, I say, 'Now remember the wedding,'" Calloway said. "They say, 'Oh, yeah.'"
For 6-year-old Emma Mula, the wedding was just fun.
She was chosen to be Miss u. Emma said she had to talk loud when she said her vows.
Emma thought about what she learned from the wedding. Then she quietly said she would have to spend her whole life trailing her new husband.
"The U always comes after the Q," she said.

Primetime Emmy Awards: Rebecca Romijn
by POPSUGAR Fashion 63 Reactions 0 Shares Print
Newlywed "Ugly Betty" star, Rebecca Romijn is glowing in this flapper-esque vintage Guy Laroche beaded gown. I am seeing the bare neck trend we first spotted at the Oscars continuing here at the Emmys. Also, I just have to say that I think her hair is so cute! What do you think?

Love her hair, first and foremost. I would have liked to see her with some red lips though. As far as the dress goes: while the flapper look isn't necissarily "new" anymore, I think Rebecca makes it her own and she has enough confidence to make this dress her own. Props to her for standing out a bit on the red carpet.

Gunman in Sikh temple attack was white supremacist
OAK CREEK, USA (AP) — The gunman who killed six people at a Sikh temple in Wisconsin before being shot to death by police was identified Monday as a 40-year-old Army veteran and former leader of a white supremacist heavy metal band.
Wade Michael Page strode into the temple carrying a 9mm handgun and multiple magazines of ammunition and opened fire without saying a word, authorities said.
Page joined the Army in 1992 and was discharged in 1998, according to a defense official who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because he was not yet authorised to release the information.
When the shooting at the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin in suburban Milwaukee ended, six victims ranging in age from 39 to 84 years old lay dead. Three others were critically wounded.
Page was a "frustrated neo-Nazi" who led a racist white supremacist band, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Mark Potok, a senior fellow at the non-profit civil rights organization in Montgomery, Alabama said Page had been on the white-power music scene for more than a decade, playing in bands known as Definite Hate and End Apathy.
"The name of the band seems to reflect what he went out and actually did," Potok said.
"There is a whole underworld of white supremacists music that is rarely seen or heard by the public," Potok said, describing lyrics that talk about carrying out genocide against Jews and other minorities, he said.
Potok said there's no research showing white supremacists hating Sikhs, suggesting Sunday's attack could have been an example of someone mistaking Sikhs for another group, such as Muslims.
In a 2010 interview, Page told a white supremacist website that he became active in white-power music in 2000, when he left his native Colorado and started the band End Apathy in 2005.
He told the website his "inspiration was based on frustration that we have the potential to accomplish so much more as individuals and a society in whole," according to the law center. He did not mention violence.
End Apathy's biography on the band's MySpace page said it was based in Nashville, North Carolina

farmall cub feaver in Maine
I was up in Maine the last week droping off my finished super C and came across a 48 cub with a trip bucket loader. I beleive it is a henderson. It has a pump that has its own resivoir on it, and it runs off the pto. maybe not the best idea when clutch is disengaged no pto. any way I could not find any info on the pump. Has any one seen this set up before? Funny I had cub feaver, but I didnt feel sick!

Re: farmall cub feaver in Maine
Yup, sure looks like a Henderson.
Pics courtesy of TM Tractor
The Henderson normally does not have a PTO pump as it connects to the Cub Touch Control. I imagine that a PO made the modification to the PTO pump. The Henderson does come with an auxillary reservoir though. Nice looking loader and Cub
Confusion breeds Discussion which breeds Knowledge which breeds Confidence which breeds Friendship
Re: farmall cub feaver in Maine
i recognize that pump , looks just like the jeep plow pump that was on my 1963 cj-5 plow jeep when i was a kid. i think it even said jeep or willies on the side.
Re: farmall cub feaver in Maine
Thats the same thought I had when I saw the picture of the pump. I had that on our Jeepster Comando.
Re: farmall cub feaver in Maine
I would call that an understatement. But several hundred thousand Farmall H's and M's were made without live hydraulics. It beats doing it with a shovel.
Fun is loading gravel or cow exhaust with a trip bucket loader, no live hydraulics, no power steering, and one way cylinders.
Using a trip bucket loader in 12 easy steps;
#1 While driving into pile steering with left hand, push rod with right hand to lower bucket
#2 Push in clutch, take out of gear, release clutch (may or may not need brakes)
#3 Pull lift rod with right hand to raise bucket
#4 Push in clutch, put in reverse, release clutch
#5 Watch where your backing, then push in clutch, put in forward, release clutch
#6 Head for truck, trailer, or spreader watching that bucket is high enough to clear side of same
#6A Bucket can be raised higher as tractor is going forward towards trailer if needed
#6A1 If bucket won't clear by the time you arrive at side of trailer repeat steps #2 and #3 then return to step #6
#7 Push in clutch with load centered over trailer (may or may not need brakes)
#8 Pull trip lever
#9 Shift into reverse, release clutch, watch where you're backing
#10 Push in lift rod to lower bucket to ground after clearing trailer until bucket latches
#11 Pull lift rod to raise bucket
#11A If steps #10 an 11 can't be accomplished because of room repeat step #2
#11B Lower bucket until it latches
#11C Raise bucket to a suitable height and proceed to step #12
#12 Push in clutch, shift to forward and repeat from step #1 a couple dozen times
It definitely beats a shovel, of course if you do this for any length of time it will feel like you've been beaten with a shovel. Remember while doing all this you still have to work the throttle. Sometimes you just literally don't have enough hands to work everything. Done by someone with a little practice and it almost has a ballet quality.

Good post, Scrivet! How well I remember that drill! You forgot to mention the complications added, when you also have to steer the tractor with the same hands that you're doing everything else with.
Re: farmall cub feaver in Maine
There are a lot of Cubs in Maine!
Must have some kind of pulley/sheave on the pto with a bracket for the pump? I have seen that done with a pump for a sprayer rig, never for a loader. Several advantages to running it on the TC, one is the pressure is regulated.

Re: farmall cub feaver in Maine
May I add to Scrivetts post. Park spreader far enough from barn so loader can be raised from low enough to clear barn to high enough to clear spreader without stopping. Vern

Re: farmall cub feaver in Maine
Very True!
Also another complication I left out between steps 1 and 2 is our Farmall H would always raise the front wheels off the ground about a foot when really digging good and kicking the clutch in would let the front end slam back down onto the ground. You had to hit the clutch before stalling the tractor and time the brakes so they engaged at the same moment the clutch released to keep the front end hanging. Then ease off on the brakes to slowly lower the front end back onto the ground.

Hoffenheim's Boris Vukcevic was involved in a serious automobile accident Friday afternoon. The midfielder was sent to a Heidelberg hospital in critical condition with life-threatening head injuries suffered on impact. He is currently in a medically induced coma.
The club released a statement on their website detailing some of the incident with a quote from sporting director Andreas Müller: "We're distressed by this news. The team, the coach, everyone at the club is shocked. Our thoughts are with Boris and his family."
Vukcevic, 22, was traveling on a road in Bammental which is a small town between Heidelberg and Hoffenheim. His car slid and struck an oncoming truck. The driver of the truck was not seriously injured. Bild has an eyewitness report that says he was cut out of the vehicle before being airlifted to Heidelberg. You can also see photos of Vukcevic's car after the accident.
The Croatian-born player has appeared in all five league matches to begin the season, starting four of them, and scored one goal. He has made several appearances for Germany's national youth sides but is still eligible for Croatia's senior side.

A crop of American cockroaches brings in serious cash.
A Toledo man has died after he was shot multiple times on Christmas Day. Police are still looking for the gunman.
Family members say Anthony Sisson, 30, was walking to eat Christmas dinner when he was gunned down on Ross Street near Belmont Avenue in central Toledo just before 4 p.m.
"He was supposed to come to my house for dinner, but he never made it," said sister Janisha Sisson.
Sisson was rushed to a local hospital, where he died a short time later. Lucas County Coroner Dr. James Patrick says Sisson had several gunshot wounds to his chest.
Toledo Police searched the scene with a K-9 unit, looking for clues and are continuing to investigate the incident. Investigators say they recovered three shell casings at the scene.
"Our detectives are working hard. They are following up on some leads. They got some information and they're working this case vigorously," said Sgt. Kevin Braun with the Toledo Police Department.
On Thursday, family members remembered Sisson with a memorial.
"He was a good person. He loved my two boys. You know, he was real close with them," said Janisha Sisson.
The memorial hangs just feet away from where Sisson was killed.
"Everybody knew him. That's why it's so hard to see that somebody has did this to him," said Janisha Sisson.
Completely caught off guard, she has a message for whoever is responsible:
"Whoever did it, you might as well turn yourself in, that's all I'm going to say, because you're going to get caught."
Anthony Sisson was the youngest of five and has many friends in the community who consider him family. They're all in disbelief still.
Police say they don't have any suspects at this point. If you have any information that could help this case, contact CrimeStopper at 419-255-1111.

John Densmore...
Born in Los Angeles, John Densmore attended Santa Monica City College and California State University, Northridge.
He joined
The Doors
in 1965 and remained a member until the band's dissolution in 1973.
Densmore met keyboardist Ray Manzarek and guitarist Robby Krieger at a Transcendental Meditation lecture.
After the Doors' last performance with Morrison in New Orleans in 1970, the band agreed to discontinue performing live.
Densmore allowed "Riders on the Storm" to be used to sell Pirelli Tires, in England only. Densmore later stated that he "heard Jim's voice" in his ears and ended up donating the money earned to charity.
In 2002, Densmore vetoed an offer by Cadillac for $15 million for "Break on Through (To the Other Side)" because of his strong views to conserve the environment.
John Densmore formed a band with fellow ex-Doors Robby Krieger in 1973 called The Butts Band but disbanded after two albums in 1975.
John Densmore left rock and roll in the 1980s, moving to the world of dance as he performed with Bess Snyder and Co., touring the United States for two years. In 1984, at La Mama Theatre in New York, he made his stage acting debut in Skins, a one-act play he had written. In 1985, he won the LA Weekly Theater Award for music with Methusalem, directed by Tim Robbins.
In 1988, he played a feature role in Band Dreams and Bebop at the Gene Dynarski Theatre. He developed and performed a one-man piece from the short story, The King of Jazz, at the Wallenboyd Theatre in 1989. With Adam Ant, he co-produced Be Bop A Lula at Theatre Theatre in 1992. He has acted in numerous TV shows, most memorably as himself in the show Square Pegs, working as a drummer for Johnny Slash's band Open 24 Hours.
His film credits include: Get Crazy with Malcolm McDowell, Dudes directed by Penelope Spheeris, and The Doors directed by Oliver Stone.
As the drummer and an influential member of The Doors, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He worked as a technical adviser on the 1991 film The Doors, and was very impressed with Val Kilmer's performance as Morrison and overall was quite happy with the film.
In 2006, his band, Tribaljazz, released their first album of original work.
Densmore appears alongside Krieger and Manzarek in 2012's RE:GENERATION, a documentary directed by Amir Bar-Lev. It features Densmore collaborating on a new song with Skrillex.
In 2013 Densmore released "The Doors Unhinged", a book covering his legal battle with Krieger and Manzarek over the use of the name The Doors for a tour they were doing, and Densmore's veto over a 2003 offer by Cadillac to buy the rights to The Doors music.

...no, this is not Dave Tough - it's John Densmore
...but the resemblance is intentional. For an L.A. production of a play entitled "Bad Dreams and Bebop" former Doors drummer John Densmore was recruited to portray the legendary Dave Tough.

In a time when a lot of the world is looking for help, one Greenville soldier tried to do just that, and it ended up killing him.
This month, Brian Nelson received some news regarding his son, Specialist Joshua Nelson's death in Afghanistan. Nelson says Joshua was shot and killed by Afghan soldiers who were suppose to be allies. Joshua's was one of four U.S. soldiers killed during the attack.
"They were supposed to be helping set mortars, or something as a protective barrier, the Afghans that were supposed to be anti- against the Al-Qaeda, they the ones that turned on them," said Brian Nelson.
The Long War Journal says the Sept. 16th green on blue attack prompted the U.S. military to suspend Afghan/ U.S. soldier field patrols for a period of time.
This was Joshua's first deployment since joining the military in 2011.
The 22-year-old was scheduled to come home just a few weeks before he was killed.
Brian Nelson says though he has the investigative and autopsy reports, he says it's still too difficult to read through.
Joshua Nelson was awarded a Purple Heart for his service in the U.S. Army.
-------------------------------------------------previous story---------------------------------------------------
GREENVILLE, N. C. - Friends and family are honoring the life of a fallen soldier.
Specialist Josh Nelson, killed in action in Afghanistan, will be laid to rest Wednesday.
The body of the Pitt County soldier was returned home on Tuesday.
Rogue Afghan police officers shot and killed Nelson and three others two weeks ago.
It was Nelson's first deployment and he was supposed to come home next month.
Nelson graduated from North Pitt High School in 2008.
"His life is an example of what a young man can do when he puts his mind to it," his father Brian Nelson said. "I'm proud of my son. I'm very proud of him because I know out of this there are going to be some young men who are going to say they want to pattern their life after what Josh did," he said.
Josh's body was brought home Tuesday with full military honors.
His visitation is Wednesday from 4pm to 6pm at Mount Calvary Free Will Baptist in Greenville.
It is open to the public. Josh will be buried at the veteran's cemetery in Jacksonville.
"I'm grateful. I thank the Lord for letting me have him for as long as He let me have him and...i'm sad hes gone..i'm sad hes gone but he'll never be forgotten..." said Brian.
--- Original Story ---
GREENVILLE,N.C.(WNCT) - A soldier from right here in the East has died protecting our country.
Spc. Joshua Nelson died was killed in Afghanistan Saturday.
"He was just a really really good guy," said his father Brian Nelson.
It was back in May that Josh set out on his first ever deployment to Afghanistan.
But on Sunday, his father saw two men in uniform walking up to his home with news nobody wanted to hear, Josh had been killed in action. He was just 22 years old.
"I felt the heaviness in my heart just as soon I saw them, you know? I already knew what they were there for and it hurt really bad," his father said.
"He gave his life for his county and not for the streets," his father said proudly.
Brian Nelson says josh was brought up in the church. He played drums and in the band at North Pitt High School and sang in the gospel choir.
"Everybody loved josh you couldn't meet josh and not love josh because Josh was just himself he was not the type of person who tried please you or anything like that he was just himself he was what you see is what you and people just loved him man, they just loved him.
After graduating high school he married his true love, Quamisha Nelson.
The Army hasn't released the details of his death, but his family can't help but think it's tied to the attack surrounding the violent protests going on in Afghanistan.
Josh was just one month away from coming home
He paid the ultimate price protecting the two things his father says he loved most, his family and his country.
"He always had a plan for his life that he wanted to do something good for people, and so he ended up doing something good for our country as well," his father said.
