Council to hear permanent 2014 Budget Monday
BY NANCY SPENCER
Herald Editor

DELPHOS Delphos
City Council will hear a slim
but balanced 2014 Permanent
Budget Monday, according
to Finance Committee Chair
Josh Gillespie.
Gillespie told the com-
mittee Thursday evening he
and Interim Safety Service
Director Sherryl George and
department heads met and
reviewed their respective
budgets line item by line item
and were able to meet Auditor
Tom Jettinghoffs target
for 2014 at $14,706,053 in
expenditures.
We were able to bal-
ance the budget against our
proposed income for 2014,
Gillespie said.
George cautioned that all
pay with non-union employ-
ees was figured on a 74-hour
work week, accounting for
the 3-hour weekly furlough.
If council chooses to
bring everyone back up to
a 40-hour work week, those
numbers will change,
George said.
George said Parks and
Rec Superintendent Craig
Mansfield was able to trim
1,000 man-hours from his
budget and most other depart-
ments were close to last
years budget.
The budget will be up
for first reading on Monday
and we need to pass it by
the end of March, Gillespie
said. After that, we need to
start working on cuts to put
in place if the income tax
doesnt pass in May.
Jettinghoff said that if
nothing is done, the Water
Fund will see a $55,000 defi-
cit at the end of 2015 and
the Sewer Fund will have a
nearly $500,000 gap.
Council will meet in regu-
lar session at 7 p.m. Monday.

FJ Telephone purchases
storage space in Delphos

DELPHOS Fort
Jennings Telephone vehicles
have been a more common
sight in Delphos over the last
month. The company based
in the neighboring village has
purchased the former Cintas
(Van Dyne Crotty) business
office on East Fourth Street.
According to General
Manager Mike Metzger, the
company will use the space
for equipment and the park-
ing lot for several vehicles.
Right now, we are stor-
ing equipment here to ser-
vice our Delphos customers
better. Our fiber runs along
Washington Street, Metzger
said. There will be at least
one service vehicle here for
an employee who lives south
of Delphos to make it more
convenient for after-hours
calls.
FJ Telephone has resi-
dential users in Heritage
Meadows and services many
businesses on Main Street
and Elida Road. It offers tele-
phone, cable TV and/or high-
speed Internet services to
nearly 2,300 customers over-
all and has six employees.

VAN WERT Youve heard it before this winter but
a familiar warning has been sounded: watch out for a big
snow storm this weekend.
Van Wert County Emergency Management Director
Rick McCoy issued the news on Thursday.
The new computer models are out and it looks like
theres going to be a really big storm system thats going to
produce a lot of severe weather across southern states. The
north end of it is going to be an ice- and snow-maker across
the southern part of the state and that will extend back to
almost Oklahoma. Up here, its going to be cold enough it
doesnt look like we are going to see any overrunning warm
air which gives you the freezing rain, so it looks like it will
be a complete snow event here, he stated.
The new snowfall this weekend would make this winter
the third snowiest in recorded history in Van Wert County.
With the snow coming in, the light snow could begin
Saturday evening, McCoy explained. The heavier snow
wont start until after midnight and continue at least 24
hours into Sunday night and possibly Monday morning.
So with the prolonged period of snow, it looks like up
through here, everybody should see six inches of snow
across the region and there will be isolated areas of at least
10 inches.
Although meteorologists are still debating where the
heaviest snow totals will fall, the conventional wisdom now
puts the heavy stuff coming down south of U.S. 24.
Another big snow
storm on tap for
the weekend
The Delphos Ministerial Association donated a faith gift of $1,000 for the recon-

Today is Friday, Feb. 28, the 59th
day of 2014. There are 306 days left in
the year.
Todays Highlight in History:
On Feb. 28, 2013, Benedict XVI
became the first pope in 600 years
to resign, ending an eight-year pon-
tificate shaped by struggles to move the
Catholic Church past sex abuse scandals
and to reawaken Christianity in an indif-
ferent world. (Benedict was succeeded
the following month by Pope Francis.)
On this date:
In 1844, a 12-inch gun aboard the
USS Princeton exploded as the ship
was sailing on the Potomac River, kill-
ing Secretary of State Abel P. Upshur,
Navy Secretary Thomas W. Gilmer and
several others.
In 1861, the Territory of Colorado
was organized.
In 1911, President William Howard
Taft nominated William H. Lewis to
be the first black Assistant Attorney
General of the United States.
In 1942, the heavy cruiser USS
Houston and the Australian light cruiser
HMAS Perth were attacked by Japanese
forces during the World War II Battle
of Sunda Strait; both were sunk shortly
after midnight.
In 1953, scientists James D. Watson
and Francis H.C. Crick announced they
had discovered the double-helix struc-
ture of DNA.
In 1960, a day after defeating the
Soviets at the Winter Games in Squaw
Valley, Calif., the United States won
its first Olympic hockey gold medal by
defeating Czechoslovakias team, 9-4.
In 1972, President Richard M. Nixon
and Chinese Premier Zhou Enlai issued
the Shanghai Communique, which
called for normalizing relations between
their countries, at the conclusion of
Nixons historic visit to China.
In 1974, the United States and Egypt
re-established diplomatic relations after
a seven-year break.
In 1986, Swedish Prime Minister
Olof Palme was shot to death in cen-
tral Stockholm. (The killing remains
unsolved.)
In 1988, the 15th Olympic Winter
Games held its closing ceremony in
Calgary, Canada.
In 1993, a gun battle erupted at a
religious compound near Waco, Texas,
when Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and
Firearms agents tried to arrest Branch
Davidian leader David Koresh on
weapons charges; four agents and six
Davidians were killed as a 51-day stand-
off began.
In 1994, Lorena Bobbitt was released
from a state mental hospital in Virginia,
five weeks after being acquitted by rea-
son of insanity of sexually mutilating
her husband, John.
Ten years ago: Iraqs U.S.-picked
leaders failed to meet a deadline for
adopting an interim constitution. Six-
nation talks on ending North Koreas
nuclear weapons program ended in
Beijing with an agreement to hold more
negotiations. The Bow Mariner, a tanker
carrying ethanol, exploded and sank off
the Virginia coast; 21 crew members
died while six men survived. Former
Librarian of Congress Daniel J. Boorstin
died in Washington, D.C. at age 89.
Five years ago: Paul Harvey, the news
commentator and talk-radio pioneer
whose staccato style made him one of
the nations most familiar voices, died
in Phoenix at age 90. Oakland Raiders
linebacker Marquis Cooper, free-agent
NFL defensive lineman Corey Smith
and former South Florida player William
Bleakley died when their boat overturned
in rough seas off the coast of Florida.
One year ago: President Barack
Obama urged the Supreme Court to
overturn Californias same-sex marriage
ban and turn a skeptical eye on similar
prohibitions across the country. Bradley
Manning, the Army private arrested in
the biggest leak of classified informa-
tion in U.S. history, pleaded guilty at
Fort Meade, Md., to 10 charges involv-
ing illegal possession or distribution
of classified material. (Manning, who
has since adopted the female identity
Chelsea Manning, was sentenced to up
to 35 years in prison after being con-
victed of additional charges in a court-
martial.) In Seffner, Fla., a sinkhole
opened up under a mans bedroom and
swallowed him up without a trace; Jeff
Bush is presumed dead.

Jim Lange, The Dating Game host, dies
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) Jim
Lange, the first host of the popular
game show The Dating Game,
has died at his home in Mill Valley,
Calif. He was 81.
He died Tuesday morning after
suffering a heart attack, his wife
Nancy told The Associated Press
Wednesday.
Though Lange had a successful
career in radio, he is best known for
his television role on ABCs The
Dating Game, which debuted in
1965 and on which he appeared for
more than a decade, charming audi-
ences with his mellifluous voice and
wide, easygoing grin.
He also played host to many celeb-
rity guests. Michael Jackson, Steve
Martin and Arnold Schwarzenegger,
among others, appeared as contes-
tants.
Even a pre-Charlies Angels
Farrah Fawcett appeared on the
program, introduced as an accom-
plished artist and sculptress with a
dream to open her own gallery.
The shows format: a young man
or woman questions three members
of the opposite sex, hidden from
view, to determine which one would
be the best date.
The questions were designed by
the shows writers to elicit sexy
answers.
Ive never been out on a date
before. What do two kids like us
do on a date? a teenage Michael
Jackson asked one of his potential
dates on a 1972 episode of the show.
Well, wed have fun, the girl
answered. Wed go out to dinner,
and then Id go over to your house.
Lange was born on Aug. 15, 1932,
in St. Paul, Minn., where at 15 he
discovered a passion for local radio
after winning an audition at a local
station.
They wanted a boy and a girl, he
said in a 1992 interview with the Bay
Area Radio Digest. They wanted the
boy to do sports and the girl to do the
dances and stuff that was going on in
the Twin Cities very sexist and
play music once a week.
He hosted that show for two years
before attending the University of
Minnesota and doing a three-year
stint in the Marines, according to the
Bay Area Radio Museum.
His big break on network TV
came in 1962 when he was made
an announcer and sidekick on The
Tennessee Ernie Ford Show.
Later, after The Dating Game
brought him national recognition,
he also hosted the game shows
Hollywood Connection, $100,000
Name That Tune and The New
Newlywed Game.
Lange also worked as a disc jock-
ey for decades in Los Angeles and
the San Francisco Bay Area, and
upon his retirement from broadcast-
ing in 2005, he was the morning DJ
for KABL-FM, which specializes in
playing classics from the Big Band
era to the 1970s.
As much as hes known for his
television work, his real love was
radio, his wife said. He loved
doing local radio, especially before
it was computerized.
Lange himself once told the Bay
Area Radio Digest that his favorite
aspect of the medium was that you
dont have to worry about lighting
directors and cameramen or script
writers and all that.
Good radio is still the most fun,
he said, It always will be. Plus, you
dont have to wear makeup and you
dont have to shave.
Lange is survived by a sister, five
children, two stepchildren and four
grandchildren.

COLUMBUS (AP) Ohios three largest
cities Cincinnati, Cleveland and Columbus
have been named finalists in the competition to
host the 2016 Republican National Convention.
Republican National Committee Chairman
Reince Priebus named the three among the par-
tys eight finalists Thursday on Twitter. They
join Denver, Dallas, Kansas City, Las Vegas and
Phoenix.
Its the first time in modern memory that all
three have bid to host the convention in the same
year, with Cincinnatis bid coming in just under the
wire of a Wednesday deadline.
Former longtime Ohio Republican Chairman
Bob Bennett says hed like to see the perennial
swing state chosen.
Not in all my time in politics I dont ever
recall three (Ohio) cities bidding at the same time,
Bennett said. Im in favor of it coming to the
Midwest anyway, because Ohio is a battleground
state.
Party and city officials in the three Ohio
metropolises are counting on the states pivotal
role in electing presidents to boost the chances that
the party will pick one of their cities for its biggest
event.
No Republican has ever won the White House
without carrying Ohio, and its been half a century
since a Democrat John F. Kennedy won the
presidency without Ohio.
The state also is known as the mother of presi-
dents, with eight to its name.
Ohio is the right state for a lot of reasons, said
Ohios Republican U.S. Sen. Rob Portman, who
spoke at the 2012 convention and is considered
a possible 2016 national-ticket contender. One
is, we are a classic swing state. Often the election
hinges on what happens in Ohio.
Its clear the road to the White House runs
through Ohio, Ohio Republican Chairman Matt
Borges said, pledging his partys support to land a
bid for any one of the cities. Not only does Ohio
have three world-class cities capable of hosting a
national convention, but bringing one here would
put our candidate and partys message directly in
front of voters, he said in a statement.
Landing a convention also is a potential boon
to tourism for any host city, bringing visitors and
attention to the area surrounding the event.
Its tremendous publicity for the host city, not
only nationally but internationally, Bennett said.
It would help economic development statewide if
an Ohio city is chosen.
With all three in the running, Ohios chances of
hosting are heightened, though Las Vegas is widely
considered the front-runner.
Representatives from the cities will make
presentations at the site selection meeting in
Washington on Monday.
RNC spokesman Ryan Mahoney said the panel
will announce by mid-March the sites it will
visit and name a narrowed list of finalists in late
spring after making the visits. The full Republican
National Committee will cast ballots for the host
city in late summer or early fall.
Alex Triantafilou, chairman of the Hamilton
County Republican Party, told supporters in an
email Wednesday that Cincinnatis bid has biparti-
san and nonpartisan support. It also has the backing
of political and business leaders in neighboring
northern Kentucky.
The Cincinnati group has been promoting the
role of Hamilton County, in southwestern Ohio, as
a pivotal area in the swing state. In 2008, Barack
Obama became the first Democratic presidential
candidate to carry Hamilton County since Lyndon
Johnson in 1964, and he won it again in 2012 to
help him take Ohio a second time.
Columbus Mayor Michael Coleman has been
aggressively pitching the states capital city as a
national convention venue both to Republicans
and to fellow Democrats.
Members of both parties launched a joint effort
in November Columbus 2016 aimed at land-
ing one of the conventions for Columbus, which
has never hosted.
The group estimated that landing a convention
could mean as many as 45,000 visitors 15,000
of them U.S. and international media and $150
million to $200 million for the citys economy.
FitzGerald to challenge
states early voting rules
CLEVELAND (AP) Cuyahoga County Executive
Ed Fitzgerald, the leader of the states largest county and
a Democratic gubernatorial candidate, said Thursday that
he plans to challenge a new Ohio law that bars county
elections boards from mailing unsolicited, absentee-ballot
applications to voters in the political swing state.
Absentee ballots allow Ohio voters to cast an early
ballot by mail or in person. They do not have to give a
reason.
FitzGerald said he plans to introduce legislation in the
countys council next month that asserts its home-rule
authority to ensure the applications could be sent to voters
in the county, which includes Cleveland.
Last week, Republican Gov. John Kasich signed into
law a bill allowing the secretary of state to send the appli-
cations for general elections assuming the Legislature
approves money for it. Other public officials would be
banned from doing so.
Chris Schrimpf, a spokesman for the Ohio Republican
Party, accused FitzGerald of being quick to jump at
political opportunities at the expense of Ohio voters.
The laws GOP supporters say the change helps
achieve fairness and consistency across county lines.
But voter advocates and Democrats argue that not every
county is the same.
Ohios larger, urban counties traditionally have sent
voters the applications without residents requesting them.
Residents in Cuyahoga County have been getting the
unsolicited applications since 2006, said the countys law
director, Majeed Makhlouf. Our voters became very
accustomed to this way of voting, he said.
FitzGerald also laid the groundwork Thursday for
potential legal action over the states early voting hours.
Secretary of State Jon Husted, a Republican, issued a
directive this week setting the hours and days that voters
can cast early ballots in person this fall. Ohio voters will
get two Saturdays but no Sundays or evenings to cast
in-person, absentee ballots. Its based on a plan from the
bipartisan Ohio Association of Election Officials.
Husteds office said the secretary of state supports the
fair and equal treatment of all the states voters.
Search begins for Mrs. Van Wert County 2014
VAN WERT Emily Stark, the Ohio
director for the Mrs. America Pageant sys-
tem, has announced the search is on for the
new Mrs. Van Wert County. Once select-
ed, the community representative will then
advance to compete in the Mrs. Ohio America
Pageant to be held in the spring, in downtown
Columbus. City and county titleholders will
compete to win over $15,000 in prizes, one of
which includes an all-expense-paid trip to the
prestigious Mrs. America Pageant.
Interested applicants must live or work in
the Van Wert County area, must be married
during the time of competition, a resident of
the state for at least six months, a U.S. citizen
and be at least 18 years old. There is no age
limit or performing talent.
In its 38th year, the Mrs. America Pageant
is the only nationally televised pageant dedi-
cated to recognizing the one person who
contributes so much to modern family life
Americas Married Woman! While beauty is
a key element in the competition, Mrs. Ohio
America contestants are also urged to voice
their opinions on marriage and important
issues of the day.
Interested applicants are invited to find
out more about the competition at www.mrso-
hamerica.com or can request and receive free
entry information by contacting Stark at the
Mrs. Ohio America office at 303-593-1199.

State agency examines
group-home placements
COLUMBUS (AP) Child welfare workers should have
known more about the background of a group home resident
who has been charged in the slaying of a jogger in a central
Ohio park last fall, according to a new report.
The report released Wednesday by Franklin County
Children Services said it needs to better assess youths who end
up in group homes. The agency also said it plans a review of
its group-home placements.
The 16-year-old boy is accused of the fatal stabbing of
55-year-old Jane Juergens, who was attacked on Oct. 20 as she
went for a run in a park in Blendon Township near Columbus.
The Columbus Dispatch reported that of 125 cases studied,
about 15 percent of the group-home teens had violent, aggres-
sive or self-harming behavior. About 10 percent were recom-
mended for further assessment to determine whether they need
a higher level of care. About 14 percent of the teens were on
probation with the county juvenile court.
The report said the jogger yielded insights and opportuni-
ties for practice change in several areas.
Evaluations need to take into account the childs family and
early life, the report said. The assessments should lead to better
placements and services for troubled youths, not more incar-
ceration, said Chip Spinning, the agencys executive director.
The institutionalization of youths is not favorable long
term. Ultimately, they come back to the community, he said.
The agency wants more placement options, including in the
homes of foster parents who are trained and willing to care for
troubled teens, so that they dont have to be placed in group homes.

TERRY MATTINGLY
On
Religion
Worship this week at the
church of your choice.
When pollster David Kinnaman went to
college two decades ago, his Generation X life
was surrounded by electronic screens and all
the gadgets that connected to them.
There were TV screens, movie screens
and new computers, some of which even had
speakers. There were VCRs, CD players,
cassette recorders, video cameras and other
cool devices. The hottest trend was email
that allowed students to do something Baby
Boomers could only dream about -- send
private, instant messages to friends in nearby
dorms or around the world.
Pop culture was huge. Technology was
powerful. But today, all those devices have
evolved into one life-changing screen carried
by millions of the so-called Millennials -- the
smartphone. And through these screens stream
the myriad channels, icons, brands, apps and
voices that are shaping a generation.
But what religious leaders and educators
must understand is that this updated screen
culture has created the opposite of a unified
youth culture, said Kinnaman, president of the
Barna Group, a faith-centered research firm.
While its accurate, for example, to say pop
culture is in some ways the new religion,
that doesnt mean all digital consumers raised
during past quarter century share one faith --
quite the opposite.
Pop culture is becoming a new religious
grid, its becoming the filter through which
they examine and interpret their reality, he
said, speaking at a national conference in Los
Angeles held by the Council for Christian
Colleges and Universities (the global network
in which I teach, through the Washington
Journalism Center).
The smartphone screen age is dictating
this new 20-something reality, which should
affect everything from how churches address
sexuality to how colleges teach the Bible, he
added. How it is that we will disciple in this
... digital Babylon is terribly important for us
to consider.
The bottom line: The pieces in the puzzles
that complicate so many young lives have been
radically individualized. Thus, the Millennials
mantra: Its complicated.
This includes faith. Over the past decade,
Kinnaman noted, Barna researchers have con-
ducted 27,000 interviews with Millennials
(ages 18-31) and found that more than half
of those with a Christian background have, at
some point, stopped going to church.
In his book You Lost Me, Kinnaman not-
ed that 10 percent of these straying Millennials
are Prodigals who have lost the faith --
period. Another 30 percent are Exiles, who
to some degree remain inside a church, but feel
lost and cannot find a comfortable niche. The
largest segment -- 40 percent -- are Nomads
who have left the institutional church, but still
claim the label Christian.
The hard truth that many religious lead-
ers have never accepted, he added, is that
Millennials are merely walking the do-it-your-
self spirituality path used by many of their par-
ents. Nomad faith is now the American way.
What we learn in our research, he said,
is that a majority of Americans are Christian
nomads -- adults of whatever generation.
Right? We see that most adults in the country
are Christian, and yet very few of them are
very active as Christians. They have accepted
the IDEA of being Christians.
This reality is now affecting how young
Americans make decisions about sex, mar-
riage, family life and careers, with more and
more Millennials delaying the burdens, com-
mitments and uncertainties of adulthood.
In the 1960s, he noted, 77 percent of
women and 66 percent of men had -- by age 30
-- completed the major transitions of life, such
as leaving home, finishing school, achieving
financial independence, getting married and
having children. In 2014 these numbers were
quite different, with 46 percent of women and
a mere 31 percent of men having made these
steps into adulthood by age 30.
Will it be a challenge for older adults to
offer spiritual guidance as young Americans
struggle with these issues? Obviously, said
Kinnaman, because adults are adults and peers
are peers.
This is a generation that wants ... (to)
be engaged with people, with diversity, with
friends from around the world, with different
points of view, with different religions, with
different perspectives, he warned the educa-
tors in attendance.
If you tell them that you have to choose
between being friends with somebody and
their faith, they will choose being friends.
They will choose relational connection over
what you think they need to believe in terms
of orthodoxy. ... We are finding that with
Millennials their peers are their moral and
spiritual compass.

The Ohio Development Services Agency
and the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio
(PUCO) want to remind Ohioans that assistance
is available if you have been disconnected or are
threatened with disconnection from your utility
service.
The Winter Crisis Program, a component of
the Home Energy Assistance Program, provides
assistance to eligible households that are threat-
ened with disconnection, have been discon-
nected or if their tank contains 25 percent or less
of its capacity of bulk fuel.
The gross income of eligible households
must be at or below 175 percent of the fed-
eral poverty guidelines. For a family of four, the
annual income must be at or below $41,212.50.
Individuals interested in receiving Winter
Crisis assistance must have a face-to-face inter-
view at their Winter Crisis Program provider.
Ohioans also can call the toll-free hotline at
800-282-0880 Monday through Friday (hearing-
impaired customers may dial 800-686-1557
for assistance) or visit energyhelp.ohio.gov for

The Public Utilities Commission of Ohios
Winter Reconnect Order allows residential cus-
tomers the opportunity to pay a designated
amount to have their service restored or main-
tained. Residential customers are required to pay
no more than $175 to maintain service under the
reconnection order.
If the customers service has already been
disconnected, the customer must pay the $175
and possibly a reconnection fee of no more than
$36 to restore service.
There is no income-eligibility requirement
or sign-up required to use the Winter Reconnect
Order.

NASCARs task is duplicating
Daytona 500 thriller
By JENNA FRYER
Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. When the race finally resumed
some six hours after the Daytona 500 was brought to a water-
logged halt fans that made it to the finish were treated to one
of the most intense races in memory.
As NASCAR heads West for a 2-race swing through Phoenix
and Las Vegas, the challenge is to somehow duplicate all that
energy from the Daytona 500. There are 36 events left this year
and NASCAR would have very few problems if they are half as
exciting as the 500.
It was electric, man, winner Dale Earnhardt Jr. said. I dont
know what the hell was going on or why it was like that. I wish
I knew because thats what NASCAR wants to bottle and sell.
NASCAR spent much of last year working on a new rules
package to improve the on-track action at 1.5-mile tracks; the
first test wont come until March 9 at Las Vegas. First up is this
Sundays race at Phoenix, a 1-mile, low-banked tri-oval in the
desert that will give teams a far better indicator than Daytona of
how prepared they are for the season.
But there will be new eyes watching, partly because of
Earnhardts victory and partly because of the sheer competitive-
ness of Daytona, and theyll be expecting a similar show.
I know everybody thinks its the greatest race they ever saw
because Dale Jr. won it, Earnhardt added. Taking that out of
the equation, I think it really was an exciting race and one of the
most exciting Daytona 500s Ive ever been in and one of the most
intense races Ive ever been in.
It felt so different than any other race Id ever been in. The
intensity level was at a max. Races usually have a lull in the
middle, dont get going til the end when its time to put money on
the line, people start picking up the intensity. We sustained it from
the time we started, restarted, all the way to the end. I couldnt
believe it.
The race had 42 lead changes, 37 of them after the rain delay.
Drivers ran 3-wide when the situation called for single-file or
maybe side-by-side racing. They seemed to treat every lap as if
it was the last.
Theres no one reason to credit for the aggression but a likely
contributor was that no one was sure if it would rain again. Should
the sky suddenly open up, the race would have ended and the win-
ner would have been the leader on that lap.
NASCAR Chairman Brian France famously declared last
September that he expected drivers to give 100 percent on every
lap; the Daytona 500 was evidence that everyone in the field is
capable of meeting that demand.
I think everyone raced a hard, 500-mile race. I never saw
a lull in the action from where I was sitting, said third-place
finisher Brad Keselowski. I couldnt be more pleased as both a
participant and naturally a fan of the sport with how the 500 went
from a competitive standpoint.
Now its up to the drivers to deliver a similar product going
forward.
TWEETING FOOL: So reluctant to get involved in social
media, Earnhardt Jr. is suddenly a tweeting fool.
He joked with Michael Waltrip that hed consider joining
Twitter if he won the Daytona 500 and followed through with that
promise with his first tweet early Monday.
Earnhardt has since proven to be an expert at selfies, used pho-
tos of his whirlwind winners media tour to show his humor, and
has already hosted his first Twitter chat. His account was estab-
lished by JR Motorsports in 2008 just in case he ever wanted to
use Twitter. It gradually added followers, even though the account
was dormant, and a Twitter official reported this week Earnhardt
had 215,106 the day before the Daytona 500.
That number had gone up to 216,320 by midnight on Sunday
and had swelled to 416,219 a mere 24 hours later.
Now, Earnhardt has passed the half-million mark and is rapidly
closing in on 6-time champion Jimmie Johnsons mark 548,000
followers. Next up on the list? Danica Patrick, who last weekend
became the first driver in NASCAR or IndyCar to reach 1 million
followers.
I just felt like I was going to join Twitter sooner or later and
just didnt know when, Earnhardt said. Its becoming such a
big part of our lives and such big part of exposure to our partners.
Im having fun with it. I thought it would be after an event like
winning the championship or the Daytona 500 it felt natural
(Sunday night) to go ahead and kick it off. We had 200,000 fol-
lowers without one tweet. I figured theyd been waiting around
for something.
DEJECTED DENNY: Denny Hamlin could spend a lot of time
second-guessing what he could have done differently in the clos-
ing laps of the Daytona 500.
He won two races during Speedweeks and was going for the
trifecta with a victory in the Great American Race. But when
he climbed back into his car after the lengthy rain delay, his radio
communication was intermittent at best. He told his spotter he
could only hear him on the backstretch and there were times he
could hear nothing at all.
Since drivers rely on spotters to navigate traffic, Hamlin was
hamstrung, particularly in the final 2-lap sprint to the finish when
he made his charge through the field. He wound up second but
had trouble finding much joy in the result.
Buettner eliminated from State wrestling,
Hunter advances in consolation bracket
By LARRY HEIING
DHI Correspondent
news@delphosherald.com
COLUMBUS With the
District wrestling tournament
behind him and practices
over for the season, this was
supposed to be a time for St.
Johns wrestling coach Derek
Sterling to enjoy the labors of
his hard work.
Junior Wes Buettner fin-
ished fourth at the Troy dis-
tricts and qualified for the
77th annual State Wrestling
Tournament, marking the
10th straight year a Blue Jay
wrestler made it that far.
Instead, things off the mat
seemed to get in the way.
Sterling received news
on Tuesday morning that
his motel reservations were
canceled due to water dam-
age. So instead of concentrat-
ing on wrestling, the next
24 hours were spent search-
ing for motel rooms for the
coaches and 170-pound
junior wrestler Wes Buettner.
Finally on Wednesday
morning, Sterling received
confirmation of new reserva-
tions and it was time to focus
on wrestling again.
In the Division III ranks,
Buettner flooded his oppo-
nent, Jacob Wise (37-1) from
Bloomdale Elmwood, in the
first round Thursday after-
noon, with numerous shots
but was unable to score. Wise
scored first on a takedown
and Buettner recorded an
escape, making the score 2-1
after two minutes.
Buettner got his second
escape of the match to tie
the score at 2 at the end of
the second period but Wise
scored an escape to open the
third to win the match 3-2.
Neither wrestler made a
mistake in the match after
Wes surrendered the take-
down, said Coach Sterling.
He definitely left in all on
the mat and worked hard to
get in a shot but just couldnt
score any points. I am pleased
with the way he wrestled out
there.
In his second match in
the consolation round later
Thursday, Buettner was again
trailing 2-1 entering the third
period. But in this match,
Buettner was in obvious pain
after hurting his back on a
move by Leo Herrman (44-
2) of Steubenville Catholic
Central.
Buettner gave up a rever-
sal and lost the match 4-1 to
end his 2013-14 State run.
After the match, Buettner
was hopeful for next season.
It was good to get down
here as a junior and this was a
great experience for next sea-
son, he explained. In my
second match, I just couldnt
finish anything after I hurt
my back. My mind was in
the match but my body just
couldnt perform
this as it usually does.
Buettner ends the season
with a 41-10 record.
Those that advanced into
todays program were George
Clemons (Wayne Trace), who

Lady Titans keep going in girls District
By Charlie Warnimont

ELIDA Columbus Grove knew
Ottawa-Glandorf would bring a lot of
defensive pressure at them during their
Division III District semifinal on the
Union Bank Court at the Elida
Fieldhouse Thursday evening.
But all the practice one can
have doesnt quite prepare you
for what O-G does through-
out a game. Coming at the
Bulldogs in waves, the Titans
jumped out quickly and never let up in
posting a 52-33 win.
The win moves the Titans (22-2) into
the district finals 3 p.m. Saturday against
Liberty-Benton (22-2) at Elida. Liberty-
Benton advanced with a 76-38 win over
Lima Central Catholic in the second
game at Elida Thursday.
Columbus Grove saw its season end
at 13-12.
Ottawa-Glandorfs pressure comes in
the full-court variety and with an equally
good half-court man defense. That com-
bination forced 19 Grove turnovers on
the night and when the Bulldogs were
able to get off a shot, it was usually very
well-contested as the Bulldogs were
9-of-25 shooting for the game.
Playing O-G, you know what
they are going to do. They are going
to fullcourt man you, get after you
and challenge you a little
bit, Grove coach Brian
Schroeder said. You know
whats coming but trying to
stop it and trying to simu-
late it in practice and coun-
tering it is another thing.
Its one of those things where they are
so athletic and so good at keeping girls
in front of them without fouling, we just
werent able to handle the pressure.
The Titans pressure forced turnovers
on two of the Bulldogs first three pos-
sessions. That allowed O-G to take a 4-0
lead on two baskets by Elissa Ellerbrock
as the Titans could only connect on 2-of-
7 shots in the early going. Julie Wynn
pulled the Bulldogs within 4-3 with a
3-point play before the Titans went on a
7-0 run as Danielle Schroeder canned a
3-pointer that was followed by baskets
from Anna Bellman and Kylie White.
The two teams traded points the rest of
the quarter as O-G was up 16-7 after
eight minutes.
Sammi Stechschulte opened the sec-
ond-quarter scoring for Grove with a
basket but the Titans went on another
7-0 run as Bellman had five
points and Ellerbrock a basket.
The Titans closed out the first
half with a 6-4 run as they were
up 29-13 at halftime.
This has kind of been our
recipe all season: defense and
transition baskets, O-G coach Troy
Yant said. We beat them by 22 earlier
in the season but they are a much bet-
ter team now. We just figured that even
with our defensive pressure this would
be a grind it out game and we would
just have to consistently pound at them.
I told the girls to play it like a vise: just
keep tightening up the pressure whether
you are up or down; were just going to
keep pressuring them.

No. 22 Ohio State loses 65-63 to Penn State
Associated Press
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. With one shot, No. 22 Ohio
State had a chance to wash away a game full of missteps and
prevent Penn State from pulling off yet another upset of the
Buckeyes.
Aaron Craft drew the defense to him and passed to a wide-
open Lenzelle Smith Jr. but his 3-pointer with just seconds
left drew iron. Penn State grabbed the rebound and
the win 65-63 on Thursday night at the Bryce Jordan
Center.
Aaron made a great read. It was a wide-open
shot, Ohio State coach Thad Matta said. Small
things win you games and small things lose you
games. Tonight the little things lost us the game. We
had a chance in the first half to open it up. We missed
free throws and we missed point-blank looks at the basket. To
Penn States credit, they kept fighting. They kept clawing.
D.J. Newbill scored 23 points, Tim Frazier added 16 and
Penn State held off a late rally by the Buckeyes.
Nittany Lions coach Patrick Chambers didnt think it was
the matchup or the fact that it was Senior Night that allowed
his team to beat Ohio State again.
No, it was something more basic.
I think we were mad, he explained, emphasizing that
Penn State had been thumped by Iowa and Nebraska in
its previous two games. It just happened to be Ohio State
tonight. We came out and played desperate and with a sense
of urgency. And we played angry.
The Buckeyes (22-7, 9-7 Big Ten) had a chance to win
at the end. Coming out of a timeout with 6.8 seconds left,
Smiths 3-pointer rimmed out. The Nittany Lions (14-14,
5-10) grabbed the rebound and time expired.
Ohio State was led by LaQuinton Ross, who
scored 19 points. Craft, plagued by foul trouble most
of the game, added 10.
It was one of those games where two guys pound
the ball off the backboard and it bounces out and they
make a 3 on us, Matta continued. Little things like
that is kind of the way the game went.
Penn State swept the season series. The Nittany Lions
upset then-No. 23 Ohio State 71-70 in overtime on Jan. 29 in
Columbus.
Nittany Lions forward Donovan Jack made a turnaround
jumper, was fouled and hit the free throw to give Penn State a
60-55 lead with 1:59 to go.

McIlroy takes the
lead at Honda Classic
Associated Press
PALM BEACH
GARDENS, Fla. On the
course where Rory McIlroy
first rose to No. 1, he looked
as if he might be headed in
that direction again.
McIlroy swung freely and
walked briskly on his way to a
7-under 63 on Thursday, with
birdies on the last
two holes at PGA
National giving him
a 1-shot lead over
Russell Henley after
the first round of the
Honda Classic.
If nothing else,
it was big improve-
ment from the last
official round he
played on PGA
National.
McIlroy was 7 over through
eight holes last year when
he became so frustrated with
mounting expectations and a
slumping game that he walked
off the course in the middle of
the second round. He said it
was a mistake that he would
never repeat.
He apparently buried the
past with his clubs, if not his
head.
Its not something I real-
ly thought about out there,
McIlroy said. Coming in this
week, I knew that I was play-
ing well and I just wanted to
try and get off to a good start.
Regardless of what hap-
pened last year or where it
is, its always nice to shoot a
round like this and get your-
self in the mix early.
Tiger Woods wouldnt
know the feeling so far this
year.
In first tournament in a
month, Woods couldnt make
a birdie putt early and had to
scramble for pars late in his
round. A birdie on the last hole
gave him a 71, leaving him
eight shots behind.
I hit it good starting out,
hit it kind of scrappy in the
middle and then hit it good
at the end, Woods said. But
it was just one or the other. I
either hit it good and missed
the putt, and then scrap around
and make a putt.
In his other two events this
year, Woods was eight shots
behind after the opening round
at Torrey Pines and five shots
behind at Dubai. He goes into
the second round today out-
side the cut line.
Henley opened with five
birdies and six holes before he
cooled off for a 64. Past cham-
pion Rory Sabbatini, William
McGirt and Jamie Donaldson
of Wales were at 65.
Zach Johnson was four
shots behind and thrilled about
his 67. He hit two shots into
the water on his way to a
quadruple-bogey 8 on his sec-
ond hold of the tournament.
The former Masters champ
followed with seven birdies to
get back in the game.
It was a day where it
could have gone the other way
quick, Johnson said.
McIlroy has been shift-
ing gears since late last year,
which he closed out with a
win at the Australian Open.
He had chances to win in Abu
Dhabi and Dubai and played
well in a second-round loss
to Harris English last week at
Match Play.
But this looked like the
McIlroy who won two majors,
each by eight shots, bobbing
along the fairways and swing-
ing with no fear. It helped to
make a few putts, such as the
25-foot birdie on No. 2 and a
45-foot birdie putt on No. 11.
He had a few par saves that
kept him motoring along, such
as the up-and-down from 40
yards at No. 9, making a putt
from just outside 10 feet.
Boy Wonder
took off from there.
He hit into 8 feet
for birdie on the
493-yard 10th hole,
made the long one
at No. 11 and then
stuffed a gap wedge
into 6 feet on No.
12.
You cant fake
it around here,
McIlroy said. You have to
play well to shoot good scores
and I was able to do that
today.
McIlroy put last year
behind him, though it was
hard to ignore the turnaround.
He was the defending
champion and No. 1 in the
world last year, newly signed
to a big Nike contract and
struggling to break par. He
also was in the early stages of
leaving a management compa-
ny for the second time in two
years. It all got to be too much
and as he walked up to the
18th green at PGA National,
he shook hands and headed
straight to the parking lot. He
suggested then he was not in
a good place mentally.
Now he is playing well. He
is adjusted to his equipment.
Hes engaged to tennis player
Caroline Wozniacki, who fol-
lowed him around the golf
course.
Im in a great place,
McIlroy said. I couldnt be
happier.
The finish didnt hurt. The
24-year-old from Northern
Ireland took aim at the flag
over the water on the par-3
17th and made a 12-foot birdie
putt. He finished with a fair-
way metal into the front bun-
ker, and a simple shot to 4 feet
for birdie on the par-5 closing
hole.
He still hasnt won a PGA
Tour event since the BMW
Championship at the end of
the 2012 season. He hasnt
won on the European Tour
since Dubai at the end of that
year to capture the money title
on both sides of the Atlantic.
But with every tournament,
hes moving in the right direc-
tion.
Ive reached a point now
where Im very comfortable
with everything in my game
and my swing, he added.
Im seeing shots the way I
want to see them. When I do
that, I feel like the scores are
just a byproduct of all the
hard work and making good
swings.
DIVOTS: Phil Mickelson,
playing PGA National for
the first time since he was
an amateur, had two bird-
ies and a double bogey for
a 70. Masters champion
Adam Scott, in his first tour-
nament in six weeks, opened
with a 68. Jason Allred,
whose tie for third at Riviera
enabled him to get into the
Honda Classic, opened with

Crestview, Leipsic earn District finals
By NICK JOHNSON and JIM COX
Times Bulletin Correspondents
sports@timesbulletin.com
LIMA The Leipsic Lady Vikings
faced off against fellow Putnam County
League member Ottoville Thursday night
at Lima Senior High School in Division IV
girls district semifinal action.
The Lady Vikings won a hard-fought
game 47-44 over the Lady Green.
Leipsic got off to 4-0 lead thanks to
baskets from Haley Gerten and Shalynn
Morman to start the first quarter.
The Lady Green finally got on the board
with a layup from Annie Lindeman to cut
the Lady Viking lead to 4-2. After a Leipsic
putback basket from Amber Gerdeman put
them up four, Ottoville get a jumper from
Alicia Honigford to cut the lead back down
to two with the score 6-4, Leipsic.
The Lady Vikings got baskets from
Kelly Nadler and Gerdeman, which forced
Ottoville Dave Kleman to burn a timeout
with 3:09 left in the first quarter.
Out of the timeout, the Lady Green
got two 3-pointers from Nicole Kramer to
make the score at the end of the first period
11-10, Lady Vikings.
Leipsic got a jumper from Gerten to
open the second stanza before Kramer
drained another trey to tie the score 13-13.
The Lady Green quickly took the lead with
a basket from Lindeman but Leipsic got
a quick layup from Kaufman to bring the
score to a tie at 15-15.
After two made foul shots by Lexie
Wannemacher for the Lady Green, Gerten
got a layup right before time expired on the
first half scoreboard to make it 19-19 after
two quarters.
The Lady Vikings open the second half
with a layup from Rachel Rieman but the
Lady Green got another 3-pointer this time
from Honigford to bring the score to 22-21,
Ottoville.
Leipsic went on a 7-0 run to recap-
ture the leading getting five points from
Morman, including a 3-pointer, and a
Gerten layup to make it 28-22, Vikings.
Ottoville got a two 3-pointers one from
Kramer and one from Taylor Mangas but
that wasnt enough as Leipsic went into the
fourth period with a 31-30 lead.
Leipsic opened the final quarter getting
seven points from Gerdeman to increase
their lead to 38-32.
Mangas drained a 3-pointer for Ottoville
to cut the Leipsic lead to 38-35 midway
thru the fourth quarter.
The Lady Vikings got four points from
Gerten in between two made foul shots
from Wannemacher for Ottoville to make
the score 42-37, Leipsic.
After a Mangas layup cut the Lady
Viking lead to 44-41, Leipsic was able to
go three out of four from the foul line in the
waning moments of the game.
A last second 3-pointer from Lindeman
for Ottoville cut the Lady Vikings lead to
47-44 but quick passing by Leipsic allowed
them to run all the time off the clock and
secure the victory over Ottoville.
We know coming into the game that we
would be happy with just a 1-point win and
we know what kind of game it was and we
know the kind of pressure they would bring.
We just had to find ways to score but in the
end we found a way to have a 3-point lead
and win the game and we will take it. We
want to get the ball inside and gets some
fouls and get into the bonus. Amber made
some good post moves to extend the lead.
Rachel and Haley made some late foul shots
and its a team effort and we got the win as a
team, said Leipsic coach Gary Kreinbrink.
We battled really hard both teams play-
ing hard and wanting to finish and win the
game. We played real hard and I thought
we improved a lot through the year and
Garys team just out-played us a little bit
towards the end. Thats great for them;
they are a good team. They dont have that
record for nothing and you dont go 7-0 in
the PCL and not be a good team. I thought
Nicole Kramer keeps in the first half with
her three 3-pointers but we are a little green
and very young. I look forward to what we
can do in the future, said Ottoville coach
Dave Kleman.
Leipsic got big nights from Gerten
and Gerdeman as both players scored 17
points on the night and Gerdeman fell one
rebound short of the double-double with
nine boards.
Ottoville had two girls in double figures
as Kramer had 12 points off the bench and
Lindeman chipped in 11 points for her
squad.
In the opener, Crestview turned in an
all-around solid performance.
Still, it wasnt until halfway through the
fourth quarter when Terra Crowle buried
her fourth 3-pointer of the game that Lady
Knight fans could relax and enjoy it.
The final result was a 56-42 Crestview
win that advances the Knights (22-1) to
Saturday nights 7 p.m. final versus Leipsic.
There was a damper on the victory,
however, as Crestviews Kennis Mercer
went out with a knee injury with 1:56 left in
the game. The feisty lefty point guard was
on crutches afterwards. A MRI today will
reveal the extent of the injury.
Although leading only once at 3-2, the
pesky Lady Rockets (16-9) managed to
stay within striking distance, barely, until
Crowles dagger from the right corner
made it 50-34 with 4:12 left in the game.
Lindsey Motyckas six points and treys
from Mackenzie Riggenbach and Mercer
sparked Crestview to a 14-4 lead after one.
Crowle then entered the fray and promptly
swished a trifecta to make it 17-4 but thats
when the Rockets warmed up, going on a
4-minute 14-6 spurt to get within 23-18 at
the 3:50 mark.
That was where we had our turnovers,
said Knight coach Greg Rickard of P-Gs
second-quarter run. I think we had six at
halftime and four were in that stretch. We
let em right back in the game. We gave
them extra possessions and they scored
out of it. They wanted it to be an up-tempo
game and we didnt want it to be because
we knew that was their style.
Motycka answered the Rocket run with
an old-style 3-point play. She then added a
17-foot jumper from the left wing and one
out of two free throws in an 8-2 run to make
it 31-20, Knights, with eight seconds left in
the half. The Rockets Hunter Hermiller hit
two freebies, her fifth and sixth in as many
tries in the first half, to make it 31-22 at
the break.
The Knights halftime lead was due
largely to better shooting. Crestview hit
10-of-23 (43 percent) from the field, while
P-G landed only 6-of-21 (29 percent). Five
of the Knight buckets, one by Mercer and
two each from Crowle and Riggenbach,
were from long range. The Rockets hit two
treys, getting one each by Hermiller and
Olivia Maag.
Motycka even got into the long-range
act, draining one from the right wing half-
way through the third stanza to push the lead
out to 38-26. Two minutes later, Crowle
drained her third triple and Mercers nifty
6-foot floater at :43 gave Crestview a 43-30
lead after three.
The veteran Rockets, who started five
seniors, had the better of it in turnovers
10-15 and free throws, 78 percent (7-of-
9) to 67 percent (12-of-18). However, the
Lady Knights dominated the boards 31-19,
as well as the field goal shooting, hitting
47 percent (18-for-38) for the game to 32
percent (16-for-50) for the Rockets.
They (the Rockets) have nice size,
theyre quick, aggressive defensively, said
Rickard. We shot really well from the
perimeter. We got the ball inside, which
we thought we could because they played
behind a lot. For us, the key was taking
care of the ball. We had some spells where
we had turnovers but most of the time we
took care of the ball. We did a great job on
the boards, limiting them to one shot, which
was huge.
Motycka, Emily Bauer and Crowle led
Crestviews scoring with 17, 14 and 12,
respectively.
Megan Maag, a 1,000-point career scor-
er, had 18 for Pandora-Gilboa. Hermiller
added 11 for the Rockets, while Olivia
Maag scored nine points in the loss.

While the Titans pressure was key, they
also did a good job controlling the boards, out-
rebounding the Bulldogs 31-15 as Ellerbrock
had six and White five. The Titans pulled down
17 offensive rebounds in the game to just four
for Grove.
That was kind of surprising, Yant said.
They showed zone and we have been work-
ing on if for a couple of weeks and we wanted
to make sure we were not settling for outside
shots and it worked both against a man and
zone. We were able to get Anna, Danielle
and Elissa to find open seams and get to the
bucket for offensive rebounds and shots.
When you give a great team like O-G
second and third chance opportunities, they
are going to make you pay, Schroeder said.
They didnt shoot it exceptionally well but
when they get twice as many shots as you do
in a game, it really doesnt matter a whole
lot.
While the third quarter was the Bulldogs
best offensively scoring 12 points the
Titans wouldnt let them cut into their lead
scoring 17. O-G had an 8-0 run in the quarter
as Ellerbrock and Kristen Miller both had
four points.
Ellerbrock and Bellman both had 13 points
for the Titans for the game, while Miller,
Schroeder and White all had six.
Wynn had nine points and three rebounds
for Columbus Grove, while Sydney McCluer
had eight points and Stechschulte seven.

Titans
Ross and Craft each made a pair of free throws, sand-
wiched around two by Frazier, to pull the Buckeyes to 62-59
with just more than a minute to go.
Frazier pushed Penn States lead to five with 39.4 seconds
left with a pair of free throws.
After Ross made two more free throws, Shannon Scott
stole the inbounds pass and passed to Trey McDonald for a
layup that cut it to 64-63.
Penn State missed two free throws on the ensuing pos-
session but Smiths shot caromed off the rim and over the
backboard, giving the Nittany Lions the ball back with under
10 seconds left.
Frazier was fouled and made one of two at the line, setting
up Smiths last-second attempt from 3-point range.
When we executed what we were supposed to do, it was
amazing what happened. We didnt have the flow that we nor-
mally do, Matta added. That was the difference. We talked
about it and talked about it. We couldnt get it to where we
needed it.
Frazier, a senior point guard, was recognized before the
game as part of Senior Night festivities. He is one of 10 final-
ists for the Senior CLASS Award, given annually to a student-
athlete with notable achievements in four areas of excellence:
community, classroom, character and competition. Frazier
will leave Penn State as the schools career leader in assists.
Frazier acknowledged that his uneven play early was due
to the emotions and nerves of the night.
It was very emotional. I was basically trying to hold back
tears in the beginning. Obviously you tell at the beginning
of the game I had so many emotions running through me.
Turnovers left and right. Airballs, he added.
Chambers was happy to see a player who has meant so
much to the program get a win on his special night.
Hes an amazing kid. A man now. Hes a man, Chambers
added. Its Senior Night. Youve got family there. Youve got
one game left in this building. Youve been here five years.

Court: School
can ban US flag
shirts for safety
SAN FRANCISCO (AP)
Officials at a Northern
California high school acted
appropriately when they
ordered students wearing
American flag T-shirts to turn
the garments inside out during
the Mexican heritage celebra-
tion Cinco de Mayo, a federal
appeals court ruled Thursday.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court
of Appeals said the officials
concerns of racial violence
outweighed students free-
dom of expression rights.
Administrators feared the
American-flag shirts would
enflame the passions of Latino
students celebrating the
Mexican holiday. Live Oak
High School, in the San Jose
suburb of Morgan Hill, had a
history of problems between
white and Latino students on
that day.
The unanimous three-judge
panel said past problems gave
school officials sufficient and
justifiable reasons for their
actions. The court said schools
have wide latitude in curbing
certain civil rights to ensure
campus safety.
Our role is not to second-
guess the decision to have a
Cinco de Mayo celebration or
the precautions put in place
to avoid violence, Judge M.
Margaret McKeown wrote
for the panel. The past events
made it reasonable for school
officials to proceed as though
the threat of a potentially vio-
lent disturbance was real, she
wrote.
The case garnered national
attention as many expressed
outrage that students were
barred from wearing patriot-
ic clothing. The Ann Arbor,
Mich.-based American
Freedom Law Center, a politi-
cally conservative legal aid
foundation, and other similar
organizations took up the stu-
dents case and sued the high
school and the school district.
Obama plan aims to improve
odds for minority boys
WASHINGTON (AP) In strong, often
personal terms, President Barack Obama on
Thursday called for vigorous efforts to reverse
underachievement among young black and
Hispanic males. He also cautioned young
minority men not to repeat his own youthful
mistakes in an unforgiving world.
The president kicked off his My Brothers
Keeper initiative from the White House East
Room, appearing on stage with teenagers
involved in the Becoming a Man program for
at-risk boys in his hometown of Chicago.
The aim is to start a different cycle,
Obama said. If we help these wonderful
young men become better husbands and fathers
and well-educated, hardworking, good citizens,
then not only will they contribute to the growth
and prosperity of this country, but they will
pass those lessons on to their children, on to
their grandchildren.
The president said he, too, could have been
a negative statistic, because of his own unfo-
cused anger over having no father at home.
I made bad choices. I got high, not always
thinking about the harm it could do. I didnt
always take school as seriously as I should
have. I made excuses. Sometimes I sold myself
short, Obama said.
The large, mostly African-American and
Hispanic crowd was dotted with dignitaries,
among them black and Hispanic members of
Congress, NBA great Earvin Magic Johnson,
former Secretary of State Colin Powell, former
New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg and
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel. Also present
were the parents of Trayvon Martin and Jordan
Davis, two black Florida teenagers killed in
separate shootings.
Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx was
there, too, and Obama said they had discussed
the fatherless childhoods they had in common.
Addressing Americas young men of color
directly, Obama told them to have no excuses
and to tune out the naysayers who say if the
deck is stacked against you, you might as well
just give up or settle into the stereotype.
Married man
becomes Maronite
Catholic priest in US
ST. LOUIS (AP) When
Wissam Akiki was ordained
as a Maronite Catholic priest
Thursday night in St. Louis,
he was welcomed by hundreds
of supporters, including his
wife and daughter.
For the first time in near-
ly a century, the Maronite
Catholic Church in the
United States ordained a
married priest in a ceremony
at St. Raymonds Maronite
Cathedral near downtown St.
Louis. Maronites are among
more than a dozen Eastern
Catholic church groups in the
U.S. Eastern Catholics accept
the authority of the pope but
have many of their own rituals
and liturgy.
Akiki, 41, speaking at the
end of the two-hour ceremony,
called it a historic day and
said he had been given two
great blessings marriage to
his wife of 10 years, Manal,
and the dream to serve the
Lord and church as a priest.
Eastern Catholic church-
es in the Middle East and
Europe ordain married men.
However, the Vatican banned
the practice in America in
the 1920s after Latin-rite
bishops complained it was
confusing for parishioners.
But Pope John Paul II called
for greater acceptance of
Eastern Catholic traditions,
and over the years, popes
have made exceptions on a
case-by-case basis for mar-
ried men to become Eastern
Catholic priests in America.
Pope Francis gave permission
for Akiki to be ordained.
Almost half of our priests
in Lebanon are married, so
its not an unusual event in the
life of the Maronite church,
though in the United States
it is, Deacon Louis Peters,
chancellor at St. Raymonds,
said.
The ordination ceremo-
ny featured several bishops
from within the Maronite
rite. Many members of the
St. Raymonds congregation
are of Lebanese descent, and
many of the prayers, hymns
and readings were in Arabic.
Members of the church
said they were ready to wel-
come the new priest.
Hell be a wonderful
priest, Linda Hill, 54, said.
The fact that hes mar-
ried will be exciting for the
church. Its tradition in the
old country. I guess were
finally catching up to the old
country.
Senate blocks Dems bill
boosting vets benefits
WASHINGTON (AP) A divided
Senate on Thursday derailed Democratic
legislation that would have provided $21
billion for medical, education and job-
training benefits for the nations veterans.
The bill fell victim to election-year dis-
putes over spending and fresh penalties
against Iran.
Each party covets the allegiance of the
countrys 22 million veterans and their
families, and each party blamed the other
for turning the effort into a chess match
aimed at forcing politically embarrassing
votes.
Republicans used a procedural move
to block the bill after Senate Veterans
Affairs Committee Chairman Bernie
Sanders, I-Vt., chided GOP lawmakers
about their priorities.
I personally, I have to say this hon-
estly, have a hard time understanding
how anyone could vote for tax breaks
for billionaires, for millionaires, for
large corporations and then say we
dont have the resources to protect our
veterans, said Sanders, the measures
chief author.
Democrats noted that more than two
dozen veterans groups supported the leg-
islation. But Republicans said they still
favor helping veterans while also wanting
to be prudent about federal spending.
Were not going to be intimidated on
this, said Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama,
top Republican on the Senate Budget
Committee. Were going to do the right
things for the veterans of America.
The fight over priorities demonstrat-
ed again the bitter divisions that have
restrained the legislative process in recent
years. Efforts to address immigration, a
tax overhaul and job creation all seem
likely to go nowhere this year.
Republicans criticized how most
of Sanders bill was paid for with
unspent money from the withdrawal of
U.S. troops from Iraq and the winding
down of American military involvement
in Afghanistan. The GOP says those are
not real savings because no one expected
those dollars to be spent as those wars
ended.
Republicans also objected to provisions
making more veterans without service-
connected injuries eligible for treatment at
Department of Veterans Affairs facilities.
They said that would swamp an already
overburdened system.
The vote sidetracking the bill was 56-41,
with supporters falling four votes short of
the 60 they needed to prevail. Sens. Jerry
Moran of Kansas and Dean Heller of
Nevada were the only Republicans vot-
ing to keep the legislation alive and the
only lawmakers crossing party lines on
the vote.
Veterans groups complained about
being caught in partisan crossfire.
Veterans dont have time for this non-
sense and veterans are tired of being
used as political chew toys, said Paul
Rieckhoff, founder and CEO of Iraq and
Afghanistan Veterans of America, which
supported the legislation.
Democrats wasted little time trying to
cash in on the vote.
Bumpy ride ahead through pothole purgatory
Associated Press
Hate potholes? Well, unless you
and your elected officials are ready to
cough up billions more for better roads
and proper preventive maintenance,
buckle up, cause its going to be a
bumpy ride.
What people have to understand
is you cant have a pothole with-
out first having a crack in the pave-
ment surface, says engineer Larry
Galehouse, director of the National
Center for Pavement Preservation, a
quasi-government entity affiliated with
Michigan State University. Agencies
have been cash-strapped for a number
of years, and now its all coming home
to roost.
And despite all the advances in
patching materials and equipment
in recent years, engineers say that
until someone ponies up, its going to
remain a case of patch as patch can.
If youve got a pavement in poor
condition thats got a lot of alligator
cracking where water is getting
into the pavement and freezing and
thawing, its going to break up the
structure, says Kevin J. Haas, a traf-
fic investigations engineer with the
Oregon Department of Transportation
in Salem. Its just the law of sciences
and physics and thermodynamics and
whatever other laws you want to throw
in there.
This winter, the law is coming
down hard on Americans.
In New York City, road crews
have patched a record 136,476 pot-
holes since Jan. 1. The Department of
Transportation had filled just under
57,000 by this same time in 2013.
New Englanders, famous for their
meteorological stoicism, are reel-
ing from what Boston Public Works
Commissioner Mike Dennehy calls a
pothole eruption.
We filled our 6,000th pothole this
morning since Jan. 1, Dennehy said
Tuesday. Last years comparable fig-
ure was about 1,600.
The pace was even too much for
the citys vaunted Potzilla a mas-
sive truck that keeps the fill material
hot en route to worksites. An electrical
failure last weekend caused the heat-
ing core and hydraulic augers to quit,
forcing workers to shovel up to 2 tons
of dried asphalt from the machines
bowels before the beast could hit the
roads again, Dennehy says.
In Philadelphia, theyre not even
attempting to keep count.
Were just trying to keep up as best
we can, says Gene Blaum, a spokes-
man for the Pennsylvania Department
of Transportation.
Since Dec. 1, PennDOT workers
have applied more than 2,000 tons of
patching material in the five counties
around the City of Brotherly Love,
says Blaum.
Its been a relentless winter sea-
son, he says.
Its the recipe for potholes,
agrees Dennehy. Its just freeze-
thaw-moisture, freeze-thaw-moisture,
freeze-thaw-moisture.
The Federal Highway
Administration defines a pothole as
Localized distress in an asphalt-sur-
faced pavement resulting from the
breakup of the asphalt surface and
possibly the asphalt base course.
Climate and traffic combine to remove
pieces of asphalt, leaving potholes
and localized distress for drivers.
Normally, major pothole trouble
comes in late February or early March.
But this seasons polar vortex meant
cities from the upper Midwest to
the Deep South have been repeat-
edly pummeled by ice and snow since
January and produced an early
crater crop.
Still, that wouldnt be as big a prob-
lem had the nation invested more up
front, Galehouse and others say.
In its report card on the nations
infrastructure last year, the American
Society of Civil Engineers gave
Americas roads a D. In a recent
post on the groups blog, contributor
Becky Moylan quipped that pothole-
dodging could be an Olympic sport.
But its no laughing matter. ASCE
estimates it would take an investment
of $3.6 trillion by 2020 to ensure the
safety of highways, bridges, the power
grid and other public resources.
American motorists are already
paying the price: TRIP, a nonprofit
organization that researches surface
transportation issues, released a report
last year estimating that unacceptably
rough roads cost the average urban
driver $377 a year in repairs or a
total of $80 billion nationwide.
Is anyone doing roads right?
In an interview with the Guardian
newspaper about the state of Great
Britains roads, David Weeks, direc-
tor of that nations Asphalt Industry
Alliance, even gave props to the
ancient rival across the Channel.
This sort of thing doesnt happen in
Scandinavia or France, where they
mend the roads properly, he said.
Mats Wendel of the Swedish
Transport Administration thinks
America could learn something from
his country, which he believes has
stricter rules on asphalt composition
and road construction than the U.S. to
account for the wet and cold. He says
additives such as cement and lime are
compulsory in the top layer of asphalt
on Swedish roads, and that there are
even stricter limits on air bubbles
within the asphalt.
We take the frost in the ground
into consideration when we construct
our roads, and they dont really do that
in the U.S., he says.
But he says Sweden has also bor-
rowed a page from road builders in
Arizona and California, who use rub-
ber in the mix to avoid cracks. Some
U.S. states use it to a great extent,
Wendel says. But not on the East
Coast.
New food labels would
highlight calories and sugar
WASHINGTON (AP) Those Nutrition Facts labels
that are plastered on nearly every food package found in gro-
cery stores are getting a new look.
Calories would be in larger, bolder type, and consumers for
the first time would know whether foods have added sugars
under label changes being proposed by the Obama adminis-
tration. Serving sizes would be updated to make them more
realistic. A serving of ice cream, for example, would double to
a full cup, closer to what people actually eat.
The proposed overhaul comes as science has shifted. While
fat was the focus two decades ago when the labels first were
created, nutritionists are now more concerned with how many
calories we eat. And serving sizes have long been misleading,
with many single-serving packages listing multiple servings,
so the calorie count is lower.
The idea isnt that people should eat more; its that they
should understand how many calories are in what they are
actually eating. The Food and Drug Administration says that
by law, serving sizes must be based on actual consumption, not
ideal consumption.
Our guiding principle here is very simple, that you as a
parent and a consumer should be able to walk into your local
grocery store, pick up an item off the shelf and be able to tell
whether its good for your family, said first lady Michelle
Obama, who was to join the Food and Drug Administration
in announcing the proposed changes Thursday at the White
House.
Mrs. Obama was making the announcement as part of her
Lets Move initiative to combat child obesity, which is cele-
brating its fourth anniversary. On Tuesday, she announced new
Agriculture Department rules that would reduce marketing of
unhealthy foods in schools.
The new nutrition labels are likely several years away. The
FDA will take comments on the proposal for 90 days, and a
final rule could take another year. Once its final, the agency
has proposed giving industry two years to comply.
The FDA projects food companies will have to pay around
$2 billion as they change the labels.
The Grocery Manufacturers Association, the industry group
that represents the nations largest food companies, did not
respond to any specific parts of the proposal but called it a
thoughtful review.
As always, the snow itself
is not what is causing con-
cern.
McCoy stated, Weve
had plenty of snow this year
and weve dealt with it. My
biggest concern right now
is the wind. Its going to be
such a strong system with
good deep low pressure so
the wind is going to kick up
pretty good with this. Were
looking at gusty winds all
day Sunday, Sunday night
and even into Monday, so
there will be a lot of blowing
and drifting.
So far this winter, Van
Wert County has received
60.7 inches of snow. That
total ranks as the fifth-high-
est total for the area. This
snowfall should put this
years total past the 63.0-
inch totals measured in 1963
and 1974. The largest snow-
fall in a season was 83 inch-
es in 1978, followed closely
by 82 inches total received
in 1982.
But McCoy cautioned
Van Wert County residents
not to assume that the snow-
fall total will stop growing
after this weekend or that the
temperatures will increase
significantly.
Theres no end in sight,
unfortunately. Were going
to see another arctic air mass
right behind the storm and
bring us back down to zero
again. The pattern is indi-
cating toward the end of
next week another big storm
developing in the southern
plains and where thats going
to track is the big question
right now. But its still going
to be a parade of storms
coming across the country.
But even if we get a brief
warmup, I dont see it stay-
ing warm. This may be the
story for March.
Snow
The question weve been
asked the most is if we are
going to expand our service
area in Delphos and at this
time, we dont have a time
frame for that, Metzger
added.
Fort Jennings Telephone
had its humble beginnings
when in the late 1800s,
farmers in the area wanted a
means to communicate with
one another, so they joined
together and set poles and
strung wire for telephone
service. The franchise for
telephone lines through
the village was granted in
1893. The Union Telephone
Company was granted the
right to erect lines along the
highways in the village in
1899. There were either two
telephone companies or the
names changed as Country
Home Telephone Company
was permitted to put a line
through the village in 1903.
In 1904, the Fort Jennings
Farmers Mutual Telephone
Company was organized and
was incorporated by the State
of Ohio on Feb. 17, 1908.
The telephone company was
a mutual company until the
mid-1900s. On Dec. 24, 1954,
Fort Jennings Telephone
Company was incorporated
as a for-profit corporation and
remains that way today.

By Bernice Bede Osol
Couple needs to reach compromise
on working from home
Dear Annie: My husband
and I are arguing about his
desire to work from home.
He has an offce job that he
can accomplish remotely, and
by working at home, it saves
him a 30-minute commute
each way.
Those are all great argu-
ments. However, I dont want
him working from home. I
have to admit that
the big reason is
simply because I
want him to get
out of the house
more. He rarely
leaves unless its
with the kids and
me. Does that
make me a terrible
wife?
I work a part-
time job, also with
a 30-minute com-
mute, that allows
me to be home in time for the
kids school bus. In addition,
I take the occasional phone
meeting from home, but of
course, now I have to take
those calls in the bedroom, as
my husband is occupying the
home offce.
Ive tried to compromise
and suggested he work from
home two days a week, but he
wants at least four. I feel like
we are on top of each other all
the time and that he is becom-
ing more of a hermit. This has
turned into a major argument.
Please Help
Dear Please: Its true
that for some people, work-
ing from home is detrimen-
tal. You never get out of your
pajamas, and so you avoid
other people and rarely leave
the house. But that argu-
ment may not fy with your
husband, who can respond
that its his personal choice.
The better argument is that
you are on top of each other,
which leads to annoyance and
then resentment and can dam-
age your relationship.
Your husband is not going
to give up the opportunity to
work from home, and so its
best if you both reach some
accommodation. How about
three days a week? Would
he vacate the home offce
when you need it for business
phone calls? Is there another
space in the house that could
be set aside as your personal
offce? Would you work lon-
ger hours if he met the school
bus and took care of the kids?
Ask your husband to cooper-
ate with you to fnd a solution
you both can live with.
Dear Annie: Can you
tell me what is the proper
etiquette for graduation an-
nouncements? A relative is
graduating from a military
academy and wants to put
a note in her an-
nouncement as to
where she is reg-
istered for gifts. Is
this appropriate?
Aunt
Dear Aunt: No.
The only time reg-
istry information
should appear is
with baby and wed-
ding shower invita-
tions, where gifts
are expected. Other-
wise, it is wrong to
send out notices inferring that
the recipient is obligated for a
gift. It would be better if the
graduate lets a close friend
and/or family member know
her preferences and they can
transmit that information to
anyone who inquires.
Dear Annie: I have fol-
lowed the many outraged
responses regarding adult
children who have cut elderly
parents out of their lives, so
let me give another view.
My mother is 86 and pos-
sessed of her faculties. She
can live alone and unassisted.
Both of my sisters cut her
out of their lives years ago.
Why? Because Mom has a
cruel mouth and is bigoted,
gratuitously insulting, highly
opinionated and very vocal
about what she thinks of you
and everyone else.
Mom complained that she
has been shunned because
of her age, and I told her it
is because she is unpleasant
and impossible, and that she
should get counseling. She
responded with a well-chosen
two-word obscenity. So Im
done.
I have tried with great
patience to keep Mom in my
life, but she is so diffcult that
I, too, have fnally thrown in
the towel. I dont need the
stress that she creates. Please
let your readers know that the
behavior of some adult chil-
dren may be abundantly justi-
fed. Finished in Chicago

4B - The Herald Friday, February 28, 2014
SATURDAY, MARCH 1, 2014
In order to gain the most from new
experiences, its imperative to release
yourself from past disappointments
or negative circumstances.
Positivity, dedication and intensity
are necessary to perform at your
optimum level. With the right attitude,
nothing can hold you back.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) --
Your diligence will help you be an
effective advocate for your favorite
cause. Proceed methodically, and
set realistic goals. Offer others the
opportunity to assist you, and you will
succeed.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
-- Discretion must be used when
dealing with others. Insisting that your
colleagues agree with your opinions
will cause friction. Its advisable to
let some of your thoughts remain
unspoken.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
-- Luck is with you. If you follow
your hunches, you will encounter
a pleasant surprise. Dont allow
negative remarks to discourage
you. A romantic adventure is in your
future.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) --
Make your intentions clear. Pursue
your challenges vigorously to achieve
amazing results. Dont let distractions
interfere. Aim high and proceed with
confidence and courage.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
-- You have the power to adjust
circumstances that you find
disagreeable. Follow the advice
of a trusted friend regarding your
professional life. Refrain from
involving yourself in emotional
scenes.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Dont
allow petty jealousies and unfounded
fears to get in the way of your romantic
life. Express your feelings truthfully
and emphasize your intentions. A
commitment can be made.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) --
Spend time with someone special.
Lighthearted fun will be the perfect
thing to perk you up. Your carefree
attitude will be contagious and will
attract positive attention.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) --
Something or someone is making
your life miserable. Its not the
responsibility of others to satisfy
your needs. Dont be reluctant to
distance yourself from an unpleasant
or disagreeable situation.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
-- Creativity will be required in
order to fulfill all of your obligations.
Family matters and outside interests
are both competing for your time.
Ingenuity and adaptability will solve
your problem.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21)
-- Someone may try to make you
appear untrustworthy. Dont make
promises that you cant keep, and
think carefully before committing
to any organization or activity. Your
integrity could suffer as a result.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) --
Open your mind to new possibilities.
Opportunities for love and romance
are on the horizon. In addition, you
may be given the chance to share in
a profitable financial enterprise.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19)
-- Circumstances in your personal
life have you feeling confused and
unsatisfied. Take a close look to
discover what is troubling you. You
can then take steps to correct the
issue.
