Telling The Tri-Countys Story Since 1869

Monday, July 2, 2012

HERALD
Delphos, Ohio others have been going door to door to check on customers to be sure they have water, food and a working phone in case they would need to call 9-1-1. AEP Ohio and other utilities provided the PUCO with a list of life support customers. AEP Ohio has also stressed in the press releases distributed thus far that neighbors/family members need to check on their elderly family members and neighbors. Approximately 300 transmission structures are down without Western Ohio district. Once these have been replaced restoring service to the substation, distribution restoration would move smoothly. Transmission issues are in the Van Wert, Haviland, Kalida, Ottawa and Columbus Grove areas. A number of outside resources arrived in Findlay, Lima and Van Wert areas over the weekend which will expedite restoration. According to press releases, AEP Ohio is working around the clock to restore service to customers as safely and quickly as possible. Personnel dedicated to system repairs work 16 hours a day. Support resources work through the night to reconcile restoration completed during the day to prepare work packages, maps and instructions for the crews to use the following morning. Generators can cause back feed on the electric distribution system, which can cause serious injury to line crews working to restore electric service. Call AEP Ohio at 1-800672-2231 to report your generator. Notifying AEP Ohio protects residents and line workers as they work to restore power. Portable generators can be useful when temporary or remote electric power is needed, but also can be hazardous if they arent isolated properly. To properly isolate portable generators, be careful you never connect it to an electrical outlet. Instead, appliances should be connected directly to the generator. The Van Wert chapter of the American Red Cross continues to operate an emergency shelter at the Van Wert Middle School, 10709 SR 118. Those who need assistance should arrive at the shelter with their own medication, clothes, pillow and blankets. Showers will be available and residents should bring their own soap, towels and other hygiene items. Pets will not be permitted in the shelter. If you have no other means to get to the shelter, contact the Van Wert Emergency Management Agency 419238-1300. People who need small quantities of water can obtain them at the shelter. You should provide your own container and should receive no more than 25 gallons. Main transmission lines north of the city of Van Wert were damaged in the storm. Power crews have rerouted electricity with priority on restoring service to health care facilities. At 8 a.m Sunday much of the south end of Van Wert City had power restored. AEP crews are working to establish service in the Village of Convoy, which could take another 48 hours. See POWER, page 14

One third of Delphos still without power

Staff reports Greg Berquist announced wood chippers will be available at the big item recycle on Saturday in the parking lot across from the municipal building on Canal Street. Residents can begin dropping off tree debris for chipping Wednesday. By 6 p.m. Sunday, AEP Ohio had restored power to more than 250,000 of the 660,000 customers affected by the catastrophic storms that moved through the state Friday. A line of new storms resulted in 20,000 additional customer outages Sunday evening. Approximately 435,000 customers remain without power at 9 p.m. Sunday. At the peak of the storm on Friday, approximately 45 percent of AEP Ohio customers were without power. Approximately 12,096 Allen County customers without power Sunday; 5,436 in Putnam County; and 8,342 in Van Wert County. Fort Jennings and Ottoville remain without power except outlying areas. Ottoville Local Schools Superintendent Scott Mangas said Fort Jennings Local Schools had power and allowed his staff to move food to the neighboring district.

2nd round of storms cuts power for more Ohioans

By DAN SEWELL and KANTELE FRANKO The Associated Press COLUMBUS More than 445,000 Ohio customers were without power today after a second burst of thunderstorms knocked out electricity for thousands, including some who were left in the dark early in the weekend but had their power restored. With temperatures expected to climb into the 90s, residents were left lining up for ice at stores and scrambling to find ways to stay cool. Natalie Driscoll first lost power at her home near Springfield for a few hours on Friday night, prompting her family to buy flashlights that proved useful Sunday when storms cut the electricity again. My 2-year-old thought it was kind of fun at first, Driscoll said. She got to play with the new flashlights. With their power not expected to return before Tuesday evening, Driscoll packed two coolers with food from her refrigerator and took her two young daughters to stay with her parents in Upper Sandusky, a two-hour drive away. Her husband stayed at home, where Fridays storm had torn the top off their tall pine tree and left it in their yard. It looked like somebody pulled a Christmas tree down and laid it in our yard, instead of putting it by the curb, said Driscoll, 28. About 420,000 AEP customers were without power Monday throughout the southern two-thirds of the state. More than half of its customers in each of 19 counties, largely in southeast and central Ohio, had no power. Dayton Power and Light planned free ice giveaways at several locations to help some of its 17,000 customers without power. Duke Energy had about 8,900 customers still affected. Gov. John Kasich declared a state of emergency during the weekend, called out the National Guard and sought help from President Barack Obama, who declared a federal emergency in Ohio. Federal aid trucks carrying water were sent to six distribution points in southern and eastern Ohio. Federal Emergency Management Agency officials were working with state officials and relief workers to determine the biggest and most urgent needs. The Ohio EMA said it was fielding dozens of calls from people who mistakenly thought state and federal officials were offering access to generators for personal use, and the agency was redirecting those callers to local 211 hotlines and the American Red Cross for information about local cooling shelters. About 200 National Guard members continued going door-to-door in the Columbus and Dayton areas Monday to check on residents who might need help. Columbus planned to open fire hydrants at four locations Monday afternoon to help residents cool off. In southeast Ohio, more than half of Wayne National Forest was closed to the

public and some visitors were asked to leave recreation areas as a precaution while park workers inspected trails for fallen trees and other damage. We dont want anybody hurt, spokesman Gary Chancey said. Falling trees can be deadly. AEP said Fridays storm was Ohios worst since the state was battered in 2008 by remnants of Hurricane Ike. Out-of-state reinforcements were limited by big needs in Washington D.C. and neighboring states that were also hit by storms. Ohio officials confirmed one storm death. A 70-yearold woman died Friday evening in Muskingum County when a barn collapsed after she had gone to check on animals during the storm. State Treasurer Josh Mandel said small business owners, farmers and other Ohioans might be eligible for interest rate reductions on loans to recover or rebuild from the storm damage. He said hes made $25 million available through the states Renew Ohio & Rebuild Ohio emergency financing programs.

YOUNGSTOWN (AP) A company has formally asked Ohio officials for permission to relocate its two horse racing tracks and add slots-like gambling to the facilities. Penn National Gaming Inc. plans to move Beulah Parks thoroughbred racing from suburban Columbus to just outside Youngstown, where it will build a new track near the Ohio Turnpike. It also wants to close Raceway Park in Toledo and relocate to a new track in Dayton on the site of a shuttered auto plant. The company filed its state paperwork on Saturday. If given approval, the Wyomissing, Pa.based company hopes to break ground this fall on the tracks and open them in early 2014. Ohio stands to pocket nearly $150 million from the tracks relocation, as part of a memorandum of understanding with Gov. John Kasich.

Ohio governor vetoes test of pricy painkiller drug

The Associated Press COLUMBUS The decision by Ohio Gov. John Kasich to veto a $1 million pilot program that would test a treatment for painkiller addicts in trouble with the law hasnt stopped substance abuse centers from looking for ways to fund their own use of the drug, which can cost as much as $1,000 a month. The drug, depot naltrexone, marketed as Vivitrol, is not new, but the application a monthly shot in the buttocks is seen as an alternative to older methods of treating heroin and painkiller addictions. An alcoholic who hasnt had a drink for 40 years can lose those 40 years in one hour, said Paul Coleman, executive director of Maryhaven, the oldest substance abuse counseling center in central Ohio. There is always the risk of returning to the behavior that causes the disease. Vivitrol minimizes it. Maryhaven, with offices in several Ohio counties, has applied for a federal grant to cover the use of Vivitrol in Franklin County because of the cost. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved Vivitrol in October 2010 to treat and prevent

STATE/LOCAL

An alcoholic who hasnt had a drink for 40 years can lose those 40 years in one hour. There is always the risk of returning to the behavior that causes the disease. Vivitrol minimizes it.
Paul Coleman, executive director of Maryhaven relapse after patients addicted to drugs like heroin and painkillers have gone through detox. The drug, which blocks the drugs effects, was approved to treat alcohol dependence in 2006. Coleman calls the treatment another tool in treating addiction among the general population, but promising when it comes to ex-offenders trying to kick the habit. Vivitrol generally works best with people like inmates who have been forced off

their drug of choice but are at risk of relapse. The pilot vetoed by Kasich last month would have paid for Vivitrols use before and after release by 150 inmates in Franklin and Scioto counties who are either alcoholics or addicted to heroin or painkillers. Kasich said singling out Vivitrol contradicted his all strategies forward approach of tackling the painkiller problem. Dublin, Ireland-based Alkermes, the drugs manufacturer, criticized Kasichs decision, calling it a mistake because of the need to do something to keep drug-addicted offenders from relapsing. Drug overdose deaths driven by painkiller addictions are now the leading cause of accidental death in Ohio, surpassing car crashes. The same is true in dozens of other states, including Florida, Kentucky and Utah. Short sighted is how Ed Hughes, director of the Counseling Center in Portsmouth, a southern Ohio city hit hard by the painkiller epidemic, described the decision. Hughes agency would have been a testing site for the Vivitrol program. The pilot would have given us the ability to test this medication with a cli-

ent population that has a high relapse rate and is costing our state enormous amounts of money for incarceration for non-violent, drug-related crime, Hughes said in an email. Pilot programs testing the effect of Vivitrol on ex-inmates leaving jail are under way in Los Angeles; Washington County, Md.; and Barnstable County, Mass. Bobby Hunt became addicted to OxyContin after a doctor prescribed it following his fall from a ladder in 2006. As his prescriptions ran out, Hunt bought it on the street and tried in vain to kick the habit. But traditional drugs used to treat painkiller or heroin addictions the class of narcotics known as opiates didnt work. He started the Vivitrol injections last year after his grandparents researched the drug, and hes been clean since. I used to get up every day and hustle up money to try to find my next fix, said Hunt, 37, of Portsmouth. Once I got on Vivitrol, I realized it wasnt important. Proponents argue the drug is less expensive than the long-term price of dealing with addicts who move in and out of prison and through multiple rehab centers.

POLITICS

Courage is the price that life exacts for granting peace, The soul that knows it not, knows no release from little things.

Amelia Earhart (1897-1937?)

For Obama, a transcendent win still not assured

BY BEN FELLER The Associated Press WASHINGTON Presidents live in a world of wins and losses quickly forgotten. Rarely are they presented with the kind of defining moment that President Barack Obama experienced when the Supreme Court upheld his health care law. Its one that will transcend his presidency, change Americas social safety net and shape how he is likely to be remembered. Then theres the catch. If Obama does not win a second term in November, he risks losing both the law and the core of his legacy. Republican Mitt Romney will try to gut the law and impose something else. All the rest of what Obama accomplishes will fall under the dimmer view of history assigned to one-term presidents. Immediate attention isnt on the lasting consequences. Right now, the campaign retains its focus and remains a biting contest between two men with vastly different visions about how to fix the economy. Obamas re-election message is not expected to differ because of the ruling. But his presidency has changed. Where others failed, he succeeded, pushing through a plan to get basic health coverage to millions of uninsured people in the richest nation on earth. Obamacare, as critics derisively call it and supporters adoringly do, is his Medicare, his Social Security. The high court ensured that the law would crown Obamas legacy. He did it with no Republican help in Congress, with half the country against him, with a Supreme Court led by a conservative chief justice who produced the surprising, deciding vote to rescue his law. If he wins re-election, hes got one huge marker down that he can build upon, said Bill Daley, Obamas former chief of staff. Daley said if Obama achieves a long-term debt deal on immigration or brokers an energy plan as well, and avoids major mess-ups for eight years, then that has the potential to be a very significant presidency. Douglas Brinkley of Rice University, among the presidential historians who have met with Obama for dinners, said Obama wants to be remembered on the scale of Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Lyndon Johnson. Now, Brinkley said, Obama is poised to go down as one of the leading progressive presidents for delivering on a health care promise that has eluded so many, for so long. Its a bit of confounding presidency, Brinkley said. It always seems like Obama is about to flip off the rails. And then lo and behold, hes back on top again. And if he loses to Romney? It all changes, Brinkley said. One-term presidents have a hard time building tremendous legacies. The law is built around a mandate that people who can afford to buy health insurance must do so to help rein in the costs of coverage for everyone. Overall, the legislation is unpopular with the public, although individual parts of it are not. Romney calls it an act of government intrusion and says he will ask Congress to repeal the law. Obamas triumph at the Supreme Court, therefore, seemed less about legislative permanency and more about electoral urgency. Within hours, a fundraising appeal under Obamas name warned donors of Romneys undo-it plans and said, We cant allow that to happen. We have to win this election. Just dont expect Obamas

Pelosi: GOP repeal of Obamacare is unrealistic

WASHINGTON (AP) Minority leader Nancy Pelosi says House Democrats are happy to debate dismantling Obamacare, but repeal is unrealistic. In an interview on NBCs Meet the Press slated to air Sunday, Pelosi says Republicans from Mitt Romney to members of Congress are being the mouthpiece of the health care industry when they talk about reversing the Affordable Care Act. Pelosi says the act puts people in charge of how they receive coverage and health care. She said Republicans will ask for repeal, repeal of all the things ... that help children, help young adults, help seniors, help men or women who may have prostate cancer, breast cancer, whatever it is, any precondition. And everybody will have lower rates, better quality care and better access. So thats what they want to repeal, she said. were happy to have that debate. The Supreme Court upheld President Barack Obamas health care overhaul in a highly anticipated decision issued on Thursday. The House is scheduled to vote to overturn the law on July 9. The vote will largely be symbolic since the Democrats control the Senate. But it will put lawmakers on record for the upcoming political campaign.

GlaxoSmithKline to pay $3 billion for health fraud

Some Dems still skittish on health care; GOP riled

BY DONNA CASSATA and HENRY C. JACKSON The Associated Press WASHINGTON Victory at the Supreme Court for President Barack Obama and Democrats on health care is reopening political divisions within the party over the unpopular law. Four months to an election with control of Congress in the balance, the courts affirmation of the law left several Democrats insisting that the issue was settled and its time to focus on helping the sluggish economy. Other Democrats saw the newfound attention as a chance to reset the debate and make a fresh case for the laws more popular elements, especially as 12.8 million people start getting health insurance rebate checks in the coming months. The most vulnerable Democratic incumbents and challengers Montana Sen. Jon Tester and North Dakotas Heidi Heitkamp among them cautiously welcomed the courts judgment but said the law could be improved. Even before Obama signed the measure in March 2010, Republicans were unified in opposition and clear in their message: repeal and replace. The White House and divided Democrats have been frustrated in trying to explain and sell the law to a skeptical public in a sharp contrast to the GOP. The courts decision was a reminder of political reality. Two years ago, grassroots outrage over health care contributed to the Democrats losing the House majority and seven Senate seats. Republicans and outside groups promise more of the same in the campaign push to November. The court has done a favor for Republicans, freshman Rep. Allen West of Florida, who owes his seat in part to that anger, said in an interview. Why would the Obama administration and Democrats want the pre-eminent issue of 2010 to be the pre-eminent issue of 2012? Conservative leader Richard Viguerie said the courts decision has raised that anger to a revolutionary fervor that will sweep President Obama and many other Democrats from office. The Tea Party Express appealed to its supporters for money and backing to defeat Obama and a liberal U.S. Senate that have foisted Obamacare down our throats. Outside groups, both parties and candidates have been furiously fundraising off the ruling. In North Dakota, Crossroads GPS released an ad Friday that calls out Heitkamp, the Democratic Senate candidate, for her support of the law and contends that it raises taxes and expands regulations. Crossroads GPS is the conservative-leaning group tied to former President George W. Bushs longtime political director, Karl Rove. Looking to finesse a difficult issue, Heitkamp has aired an ad that argues for the law in personal terms. Im Heidi Heitkamp and 12 years ago, I beat breast cancer, she says. When you live through that, political attack ads seem silly. The former state attorney general, whos in a close race with Republican Rep. Rick Berg, said the bill has its good and bad points and needs to be fixed but that she would never deny coverage to seniors. In suburban Chicago, Democratic candidate Tammy Duckworth said that as a survivor of a health crisis, she understands the importance of affordable health care. Duckworth, who piloted a

fundamental pitch to voters to turn much at all, White House and campaign officials said. To the degree that the health care law becomes a more prominent part of his campaign, it will still be in the framework that Obama has settled upon, his vision of economic revival and opportunity and fair taxation. He wins by persuading people about the potential jobs ahead, not the health care fight behind him. Campaign officials say they do see some fresh opportunity to change perceptions about the law and draw contrasts with Romney. They will do that by focusing on popular elements that could disappear, such as the promise of insurance for people with medical conditions. In his majority opinion, Roberts made clear he was not offering a policy endorsement of what Obama and his Democratic allies had done. Those decisions are entrusted to our nations elected leaders, who can be thrown out of office if the people disagree with them, the chief justice said. It is not our job to protect the people from the consequences of their political choices. Obama is that guy trying not to get thrown out of office. He had an eye on the legacy of the law within hours of knowing it was saved. Im as confident as ever that when we look back five years from now, or 10 years from now, or 20 years from now, well be better off, because we had the courage to pass this law and keep moving forward, he said. Implied in there was his message to voters to keep moving forward with him. The court victory is a huge step towards making affordable health care a reality to everyone in the country, said Robert Gibbs, a senior advisor to Obamas campaign. We have another big hurdle left. Its called the election.

Moderately confused

WASHINGTON The Justice Department says GlaxoSmithKline will pay $3 billion and plead guilty to promoting two popular drugs for unapproved uses and to failing to report important safety data about a diabetes drug to the Food and Drug Administration. Government officials say its the largest health care fraud settlement in U.S. history. Prosecutors say GSK encouraged use of Paxil for children although it was not approved for anyone under 18. The company also promoted Wellbutrin for uses besides major depressive disorder, its only approved use. They say that between 2001 and 2007 GSK failed to report on two studies of the cardiovascular safety of Avandia, a diabetes drug. Of the penalties, $1 billion covers criminal fines and forfeitures and $2 billion is for civil settlements with the federal and state governments.

Black Hawk helicopter in Iraq, lost both legs when her aircraft was hit in 2004. She highlighted the popular elements of the law: banning denial of coverage for people with medical conditions, allowing children to stay on their parents insurance until age 26, and reducing seniors Medicare prescription drug costs by closing the donut hole. But Duckworth complained about the laws unfair burden on employers, especially our small businesses, and promised to address the issue if she ousts first-term Republican Rep. Joe Walsh. Public opposition to the health care law remains high. Forty-seven percent of respondents in a recent Associated Press-GfK poll said they oppose the law while 33 percent said they support it. Thirteen percent said they are neutral. Those who strongly oppose the legislation also outnumber those who strongly support it, 32 percent to 17 percent, about a 2-to-1 margin. Critical to both parties, just 21 percent of independents support it, the lowest level of support the AP-GfK poll has recorded on the issue. Much of the polling does find strong support for individual elements, like allowing young adults to remain on their parents plan to age 26. Some Democrats see that as an opening to reframe the debate. I see this as a huge moment for us, Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., said in an interview. Now that the benefits are kicking in, its a lot easier to explain it. Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, said the courts ruling lifts a cloud of uncertainty. Now the American people are going to say, Now whats in that for me? Harkin said.

Gassard participated Rhodes names deans list students in 70th anniversary of Battle of the Midway
Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class Joseph Gossard, son of Judy Gossard of Elida and Gary Gossard of Lima, is currently deployed. Gossard along with fellow Sailors and Marines aboard the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise (CVN 65) commemorated the 70th anniversary of the Battle of Midway with a ceremony, a fitting tribute given the ships close ties to the battle. The previous USS Enterprise (CV 6) and her wing played a vital role in the pivotal World War II battle that took place June 4-7, 1942. The Battle of Midway is regarded as the turning point in the war of the Pacific. Alongside three other carriers the USS Enterprise and the U.S. Strike Forces defeated the Imperial Japanese navy carrier task force under the direction of commander in chief of the Japanese Combined Fleet, Adm. Yamamoto. USS Enterprise and her wing were credited with sinking three of the four Japanese carriers that day at Midway. At the opening of the ceremony, Rear Adm. Ted Carter, commander, Enterprise Carrier Strike Group described the heroic roles of the Sailors and Marines who fought and died during the historic battle. We were not without losses of our own, however, said Carter. Although Enterprise was not attacked during the battle, her air wing suffered the heaviest losses of any air wing at sea up to that point. Hamilton, Commander, Carrier Air Wing (CVW) 1, Capt. Jeffery L. Trent and Capt. Joseph J. Leonard, commodore, Destroyer Squadron 2, also spoke about the roles USS Enterprise, the air wing and the destroyer strike group played during the battle. Knowing this is our legacy, it is an absolute honor and privilege to remember the heroes of the Battle of Midway aboard our nations most historic and legendary aircraft carrier, a great warship with a long-standing bond with Destroyer Squadron Two, said Leonard. The partnership between Enterprise and Destroyer Squadron 2 began at Midway 70 years ago and continues today. As part of the commemoration, Enterprises First Class Petty Officers by performed a wreath-laying ceremony on the fantail aboard the ship. The fallen Sailors and Marines were also honored with a 21-gun salute and the sounding of Taps. Aircraft assigned to CVW-1 performed a missing-man flyover formation to commemorate the aviators who lost during the battle. Throughout the course of the day Enterprise went on to announce a historical timeline recounting the events of the Battle of Midway over the ships announcing system. Gossard is a 2007 graduate of Elida High School of Elida, Ohio and joined the Navy in March 2009. For more information, visit navy.mil, facebook.com/ usnavy or www.twitter.com/ usnavy.

Tiger Woods squeaks out a win at Congressional

The Associated Press BETHESDA, Md. The flight of his shot into the 18th green was so pure that Tiger Woods immediately started walking and twirled his club, knowing that it effectively wrapped up another win at the AT&T National. Making it even more special was the sound of thousands of fans at Congressional to see it. One day after spectators were kept away from the golf course because of debris from a violent wind storm, they returned Sunday in full force and got what they expected Woods in his red shirt, outlasting Bo Van Pelt in a back-nine duel, and posing with another trophy. Yesterday was a silent day, Woods said. I think everyone saved up for today. What an atmosphere to play in front of. Woods closed with a 2-under 69 at one point going 41 holes without a bogey on a Congressional course that was tougher than when it held the U.S. Open last year and won for the third time this year. It was the 74th win of his career, moving him past Jack Nicklaus into second place on the PGA Tour, eight short of Sam Sneads record. Not bad for a guy who only five months ago walked off the course at Doral with another injury to his left Achilles tendon. I remember there was a time when people were saying I could never win again, Woods said. He stayed at No. 4 in the world, but a couple of other rankings indicate how he is trending. Woods moved to the top of the PGA Tour money list and the FedEx Cup standings for the first time since September 2009. And this win puts him in a position to reclaim No. 1 over the final two majors of the year. The ranking is based on points over two years. If it were a vote, Van Pelt knows how he would cast his ballot. I think hes the only guy to win three tournaments on tour this year, is that correct? he said. On three different golf courses. And he was leading the U.S. Open after two days. So Id say that hes playing the best golf in the world right now. Van Pelt made him work for it. Three times, Woods took the outright lead in the final round. Each time, Van Pelt made a birdie of his own to catch him. The tournament was decided on the last three holes, and it featured a surprising turn of events. Van Pelt had Woods on the ropes on the par-5 16th by ripping a 345-yard tee shot and having only a 6-iron into the green. Woods hit a spectator in the left rough with his tee shot, laid up, and then attacked a back flag only to see the ball tumble over the green and down an 8-foot slope. It looked as if it might be a two-shot swing for Van Pelt, or at least the lead going to the 17th. Thats when Van Pelt answered with unforced errors of his own. His 6-iron was slightly heavy and didnt quite reach the bunker, meaning he had to plant his feet in the sand and grip the wedge on the shaft for his third shot. He moved it only a few yards, still in the collar of the rough, and chipped about 12 feet by the hole. Woods chip up the slope rolled 15 feet by, and he missed the par putt. Van Pelt also missed his par putt, and they walked away from that mess still tied for the lead. It was difficult from the standpoint I had my legs in the bunker, and if I hit that chip a little too hard it goes over the green because you cant put any spin on it, Van Pelt said. I was just trying to get the ball up in the air and play it out to the right a little bit and just got underneath it a little bit. And the second one, I thought I hit great. I was surprised it rolled that far. And the putt, I mean, Ive probably never hit a better putt than that in my life under those kind of circumstances. I pretty much hit every shot the way I wanted to that hole, just ended up being 6. On the 17th, Van Pelt caught a flier from the first cut of rough and the ball shot over the green and near the grandstand, leaving him an impossible chip. He hit through the green and had to scramble to make bogey, and Woods took the outright lead for the third time all day this time for good. He made a 6-foot par putt, taking a one-shot lead to the 18th, and played it to perfection. Brendon de Jonge of Zimbabwe, who had a oneshot lead going into the final round, didnt make birdie and closed with a 77. Adam Scott went out in 31 and was briefly tied for the lead until a few bogeys on the back nine. He had to settle for a 67, which put him alone in third at 5 under. Billy Hurley, the Annapolis graduate who spent five years in the Navy, closed with a 72 and tied for fourth along with Robert Garrigus (70), Jhonattan Vegas (71) and Seung-yul Noh of South Korea, who had a 73. Woods has three wins, all of them in a different manner. He pulled away early at Bay Hill and played efficiently for a five-shot win; he rallied from four shots behind with an incredible chip-in late in the round and won the Memorial. This was a two-man duel he hasnt experienced in America since he was on the losing end to Y.E. Yang in the 2009 PGA Championship. One day after spectators were kept out of Congressional because of toppled trees and hundreds of limbs scattered about the course, they were as loud as ever. The marshals were back to work, collecting a half-dozen cell phones from fans who were caught taking pictures. Woods complained of a camera on his tee shot on the 16th, and having to back off his tee shot on the 17th because of another camera. That didnt happen on Saturday. But he loved what he called the pent-up energy of the crowd, and couldnt imagine what it would have been like if there had been no spectators when the trophy was handed out.

Sharapova loses to Lisicki in Wimbledon 4th round

BY STEPHEN WILSON The Associated Press WIMBLEDON, England Top-seeded Maria Sharapova was knocked out of Wimbledon on Monday, losing 6-4, 6-3 to Sabine Lisicki in the fourth round a month after completing a career Grand Slam. Lisicki, a 15th-ranked German, simply outplayed the 2004 Wimbledon champion in windy, rainy conditions on Court 1 for her first career victory over Sharapova in four matches. She avenged a loss in the semifinals to Sharapova here last year. Also advancing were fourtime winner Serena Williams and defending champ Petra Kvitova. Four-time Grand Slam champion Kim Clijsters lost in what she says is her final Wimbledon before retirement later this year. In mens play, six-time champion Roger Federer was the first to reach the quarterfinals, overcoming an early injury scare to beat Xavier Malisse 7-6 (1), 6-1, 4-6, 6-3 and extend his record for most consecutive Grand Slam round of eight appearances to 33. After smacking an ace down the middle on her third match point, Lisicki collapsed to her knees on the grass and shook both fists. Among those cheering for Lisicki in the guest box was German NBA star Dirk Nowitzki of the Dallas Mavericks. Its just unbelievable, Lisicki said. For the third time Ive beaten the French Open champion here. Im just so happy. Ive lost the three previous meetings against her. Now I just played well and beat her for the first time. Sharapova was trying to become the first woman since Williams in 2002 to win the French Open and Wimbledon in the same year. I just went for my shots. Really from the first point on I felt great out there, Lisicki said. Its my favorite tournament. I love playing on grass; I love the crowd here. I just love it. Lisicki will next face another German, No. 8 Angelique Kerber, who drubbed Clijsters 6-1, 6-1. The 47th-ranked Belgian has said she is retiring after this years U.S. Open this time for good, having returned to the sport in 2009 after a twoyear break. Clijsters, who has been dogged by injuries this year, walked off Court 3 with a brief wave. Third-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska also advanced, beating Italian qualifier Camila Giorgi 6-2, 6-3. Leading Malisse 4-3 in the opening set, Federer called for a medical timeout and left Centre Court with the trainer for treatment in the locker room for a back problem. When play resumed eight minutes later, Federer didnt seem visibly affected, although the speed on his first serve lacked its usual velocity. Still, in the final game, Federer hit two service winners and closed out the match with a 122 mph ace. Hell next play Mikhail Youzhny, who beat Denis Istomin of Uzbekistan in five sets. The sixth-seeded Williams won the last three games to beat 65th-ranked wild card Yaroslava Shvedova of Kazakhstan 6-1, 2-6, 7-5 in cool and gusty conditions on Court 2. Williams hopped in joy with both feet in the air after hitting a big forehand that forced an error by Shvedova on the first match point, ending a hard-hitting contest that lasted nearly two hours. I didnt want to lose today and I thought, Just stay relaxed, Williams said. I knew the whole match I could play better. Williams will next face Kvitova, who rallied from a set and a break down to beat former French Open champion Francesca Schiavone 4-6, 7-5, 6-1 in an error-filled match on Court 3. It was the second straight tough three-set victory for Williams, who won 9-7 in the third to beat Zheng Jie in the previous round.

Indians beat Orioles 6-2 behind Justin Masterson

BY DAVID GINSBURG, The Associated Press BALTIMORE The Cleveland Indians came to Camden Yards mired in a five-game losing streak. Worried that his players might switch into panic mode, manager Manny Acta called a team meeting to remind them that things can change in a hurry. His words rang true. Cleveland won three of four from the Orioles, including a 6-2 victory Sunday that provided an uplifting finish to a 4-6 road trip. Justin Masterson pitched seven innings of five-hit ball, Shelley Duncan homered and hit two doubles, and Aaron Cunningham contributed a solo shot. Cleveland totaled 55 hits in the four games, including eight for extra bases in the finale. A nice bounce back to finish a road trip that started in such an ugly way, Acta said. The Indians lost two of three in Houston and were swept in three games by the Yankees before bullying the skidding Orioles. Being able to finish by winning three of four boosts the boys as we head back home, finally, Masterson said. Masterson (5-7) retired the first 12 batters he faced and earned his first road win in four tries since May 3. The right-hander gave up two runs, one earned,, struck out seven and walked none. Masterson was dominant the majority of the game, Acta said. He was in command all day. He was able to throw that four-seam by guys whenever he wanted to at 95 or 96. Never a doubt. Jim Thome went 0 for 4 in his Baltimore debut. Acquired Saturday in a trade with Philadelphia, the 41-year-old slugger struck out twice and grounded out twice against the team with which he broke into the majors in 1991. All-Star selection Adam Jones drove in a run and scored one for the Orioles, who have lost five of six and nine of 12. Baltimore starter Brian Matusz (5-10) didnt make it out of the fifth inning and lost his fifth straight start. After the game, the left-hander was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk, where the Orioles hope he can regain his form. I think theres a couple adjustments he can make that will help him, said Dan Duquette, the teams executive vice president of baseball operations. Hes not too far away from being a winning major league pitcher. With a couple adjustments and some consistencies that will help him command his fastball better, that will give him a much better chance. Matusz allowed five runs, four earned, seven hits and three walks in four-plus innings. In his two previous career starts against Cleveland, he was 1-0 with an 0.64 ERA. But in his last five games overall, Matusz allowed 20 earned runs and 40 hits over 21 1-3 innings. Thats why the demotion came as no surprise. No, not at all. In my last five, six outings just havent been getting the job done, Matusz said. Today was just really inconsistent, I had some signs of good pitches, just havent been putting it together. Its killing the bullpen. Its making it tough, so moves have to be made. I have to go down and get better. Cleveland, which came into the series 5-16 against left-handed starters, beat lefties Wei-Yin Chen, Dana Eveland and Matusz. Up to now, only (Asdrubal) Cabrera and (Michael) Brantley have been able to hit left-handers, Acta said. But we have guys here that have done it in the past. That was the case today. Cunningham, who homered off Matusz, said, Our guys can hit lefties. Im sure throughout the season well get better with it. After Matusz left, Miguel Gonzalez struck out five and gave up one run in 4 1-3 innings. The rookie was recalled earlier in the day to fortify an overworked bullpen. Duncan put the Indians up 1-0 in the second with his sixth home run, and Cunningham added a solo shot in the third. Doubles by Jose Lopez, Duncan and Casey Kotchman, along with a sacrifice fly by Lou Marson, made it 5-0 in the fourth. Baltimore got an unearned run in the fifth. After Jones reached on a bad-hop grounder to Cabrera at shortstop that was ruled an error, Ryan Flaherty lined a two-out RBI single to left. The Orioles closed to 5-2 in the sixth when J.J. Hardy singled and scored on a double by Jones. But Baltimore got only two hits the rest of the way. Cleveland added a run in the ninth on a double by Cabrera and an RBI single by Jason Kipnis. NOTES: Indians 3B Lonnie Chisenhall underwent surgery Saturday to repair a fractured bone in his right forearm. The team says he can resume baseball activities in 10-12 weeks. ... The Orioles optioned OF Xavier Avery and RHP Tommy Hunter to Norfolk. ... Baltimores Wilson Betemit extended his hitting streak to 11 games. ... Cleveland improved to 16-0 on the road when leading after six innings. ... Baltimore went 3-6 on its final homestand until July 13-15.

father a gift, but would it make you feel better to send something anyway? We suggest you handle future communications in whatever way gives you peace of mind. You have tried to please your parents and discovered that it is impossible. Its OK to please yourself. Dear Annie: I am 31 and a never-married single mother. Along with raising a happy 5-year-old, I have a small business, and I attend school part time. Im tired of supposed well-meaning friends implying that I should marry. They ask, Do you want to die alone? or Dont you want a father for your son? I answer them with humor, but I dont appreciate the questions. Please help your readers understand that it is OK not to be interested in marriage. Not everyone wants to share a bed or a bathroom or a bank account. Many of the married moms I know are unhappy, and quite a few end up raising their husbands, as well as their kids. Being single isnt a mark of failure and doesnt require an explanation. I understand the value society places on marriage, but what happened to the value of minding your own business? -- Parent in the Northeast Dear Northeast: Good luck with that. If the same friends keep making the same intrusive remarks, tell them politely, I cannot imagine why you think this is your business. It may be less gentle than youd like, but it should put an end to the questions. Dear Annie: Friend of a Young Cancer Victim said its a waste to have flowers at a funeral. Flowers not only provide comfort for the bereaved, but also create jobs from growing the flowers to shipping them, providing containers for the arrangement, filler for the containers, etc. Without these beautiful arrangements, some of us would be unemployed and unable to donate to those charities she champions. -Linda Annies Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Phelps locks up another 8-race program in London

BY PAUL NEWBERRY The Associated Press OMAHA, Neb. Michael Phelps Olympic program is set. Hell be going for another eight gold medals. Hes not the only one wholl be busy in London. Get ready to see a lot of Missy Franklin. And how bout Anthony Ervin! After eight years away from swimming, hes going back to Olympics, too. Phelps wrapped up another stellar week at the U.S. trials Sunday night, rallying to win the 100-meter butterfly and secure his spot in five individual races at the Olympics. Throw in the three relays, and that adds up to eight. Again. I guess thats OK, Phelps said nonchalantly. Franklin will have four individual races in London after capping her week with a dominating win in the 200 backstroke. Shes expected to swim all three relays, as well, setting her up to become the first U.S. woman to swim seven events in a single games. Uhh, make that the first female. Shes still a girl, a 17-year-old wholl be a high school senior in the fall. But first, shes got some important business this summer: the Olympics. I cant believe I have seven events, Franklin said. Its so overwhelming but so exciting. The whole week went really, really well. Ervin will have only one event in London, a chaotic dash from one of the pool to the other. But its amazing that hes going at all, considering he walked away from the sport in 2003 while at the peak of his career, burned out and desperate to discover a deeper meaning to life. He spent eight years working odd jobs, finished his college degree and even auctioned off the gold medal he won in the 50 free at Sydney in 2000 to aid tsunami victims. Now, after returning to the sport just a year ago, hes got a chance to win another gold. A runner-up finish behind Cullen Jones in the 50 freestyle locked up his improbable spot on the American team. I am surprised to be here at all, said the 31-year-old Ervin, whose has a sleeve of tattoos on each arm and turns interviews into a discussion on everything from philosophy to Biblical parables. He put on quite a show during the medal ceremony, grabbing the mic and shouting, The journey continues, because Im going to Londonnnnn! Then, after slamming it to the deck with a loud thud, he took off on a

victory lap around the arena, soaking up the cheers of more than 12,000 fans. A couple of other races provided quite a generation gap. Fifteen-year-old Kathleen Ledecky earned a spot on her first Olympic team with a win in the 800 freestyle, while 45-year-old Dara Torres advanced to the final of the womens 50 free and a shot at her sixth Olympic team with the third-fastest time in the semifinals.

At the direction of President Obama, the Federal Emergency Management Agency and its federal partners continue to work closely with states affected this weekend by severe storms in parts of Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania and the District of Columbia. Saturday night the President issued emergency disaster declarations for all counties within the states of West Virginia and Ohio in response to requests from the Governors of those states and directed FEMA to coordinate all disaster relief efforts in those states. FEMA is strategically positioning supplies closer to impacted areas of West Virginia and Ohio. Emergency generators needed to supple critical infrastructure such as shelters, and water are positioned in staging areas in Morgantown and Charleston, West Virginia and Columbus, Ohio to support state and local response needs.

Keeping Food Safe After a Power Outage The power outages caused by Fridays storm create health concerns, especially when it comes to food safety. If people area still without power at this point, all perishable food in people refrigerators should be considered unsafe to eat and should be discarded, says Kathy Luhn, Allen County Health Commissioner. The Allen County Health Department offers the following reminder and tips when the power is out. Keep refrigerator and freezer doors closed as much as possible to maintain the cold temperature. Refrigerator-The refrigerator will keep food cold for only about 2-4 hours if it is unopened. Freezer - Full freezers will keep the temperature for about 48 hours (24 hours if it is half full) if the door remains closed. When the power is restored

Discard all perishable food such as meat, poultry, fish, eggs or leftovers. (See chart below) If in doubt about the safety of food in your refrigerator or freezer, use boxed or canned foods, milk, and water. When in doubt, throw it out.
