Finding a home on the hardcourt

LOVELAND, Ohio – Bobby Capobianco is used to being on the move. He was born in Orlando, Fla., but has since lived in six other states. In August 2005, his family moved to Loveland, just outside of Cincinnati. Prior to Ohio, Capobianco called Greensboro, N.C., his home. “I lived there for six years, which is the longest I have ever lived anywhere,” he said. Capobianco has been a welcome addition to Loveland, and he will likely end his four-year varsity basketball career as Loveland High School’s all-time leading scorer, rebounder and shot blocker. He’s already two-thirds of the way there, just 131 points short of that feat with 11 regular season games to go.

State tries to ease environmental rules

Many state environmentalists charge that the Indiana Department of Environmental Management’s plans to change environmental enforcement could make Indiana dirtier. IDEM announced in December plans to combine the office of enforcement with the separate offices of air, water and land quality.
