Patrik Norstrom, a 20 year old armless student from Borås Sweden, studies at the Columbus College of Art and Design. He paints with his feet and uses them to drive, shoot arrows, and play ping pong. He arrived Aug 21, sold art to hairstylists in Sweden to fund his trip, aims to make a living from art, and says he wants to be treated as normal.

Handyman Rath Remakes Homes From Schoolhouse To Barn
Rath, a retired Standard Oil transportation analyst with 36 years at the company, builds and renovates as a avocation. He moved his son’s house, bought a 96-year-old Rt. 113 schoolhouse in South Amherst, and helped Avon United Methodist Church construct a new building in 1965 and renovate two other structures. Contractors for the barn include John Engels of Elyria, Glen West of Elyria, and William Duffy of Grafton. The project features 1980s-style comforts such as a whirlpool, vented attic with octagon window, central a/c and heating, vinyl clad doors, double-glazed glass, and a 30-year roof. The Baths may sell or rent their Detroit Road home in Sheffield Village.
