Warnings credited in tornado outbreak

By SEAN MURPHY and GRANT SCHULTE The Associated Press WOODWARD, Okla. When a tornado shrouded in darkness and wrapped in rain dropped quickly from the sky above this northwest Oklahoma town, many residents relied on television weathermen to warn them of impending devastation. Others learned of the monster twister from neighbors or calls from frantic relatives. One backup they couldnt count on was the towns 20 outdoor tornado sirens, which were knocked out when lightning struck a tower used to activate the warning system. The storms, which caused multiple outbreaks of severe weather most of Sunday from Kansas to Minnesota, were part of an exceptionally strong system tracked by the National Weather Services Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Okla., which specializes in tornado forecasting. The center took the unusual step of warning people more than 24 hours in advance of a possible highend, life-threatening event. In the end, only the Woodward tornado proved fatal. While its unknown whether the disabled sirens contributed to the toll in Woodward, residents and officials in hard-hit areas of Kansas, Iowa and elsewhere credited days of urgent warnings from forecasters for saving lives. We cant do this with every event, said the prediction centers Ken Miller, noting that many storm systems are not as easy to predict whether they will be a potential threat to life and property. Miller said he was pleased the warnings were heeded. We measure our success by how the public reacts, he said. Do they take precautions seriously and act on them? In south central Kansas, Sedgwick County Emergency Management Director Randy Duncan credited the dire language warnings for saving lives. People become used to those warnings. That is a dangerous complacency, Duncan said. We need to break through the clutter of everyday noise to get peoples attention. The warnings had Larry Hills attention. The 72-yearold sifted Sunday through glass and debris of his home. Hours earlier, Hill had barricaded himself in a closet as a tornado ripped the roof off his home in the southwest Iowa town of Thurman. He kept a close ear on their television as Saturday night approached, and had bought extra groceries the night before. Wed been on the lookout for it for three days, he said. ... We were as ready as we could have been. A National Weather Service official said a months worth of tornados were spotted Sunday in Kansas. About 100 homes were damaged in a Wichita mobile home, but no serious injuries or fatalities were reported. We knew well ahead of time that this was going to be ugly. People listened to the warnings, Sedgwick County

Killer admits massacre, claims self-defense

By KARL RITTER The Associated Press OSLO, Norway With a defiant closed-fist salute, a right-wing fanatic admitted today to a bomb-and-shooting massacre that killed 77 people in Norway but pleaded not guilty to criminal charges, saying he was acting in selfdefense. On the first day of his longawaited trial, Anders Behring Breivik rejected the authority of the court as it sought to assign responsibility for the July 22 attacks that shocked Norway and jolted the image of terrorism in Europe. Dressed in a dark suit and sporting a thin beard, Breivik smiled as a guard removed his handcuffs in the crowded court room. The 33-year-old then flashed his salute before shaking hands with prosecutors and court officials.

I dont recognize Norwegian courts because you get your mandate from the Norwegian political parties who support multiculturalism, Breivik said in his first comments to the court. Eight people were killed in Breiviks July 22 bombing of Oslos government district and 69 others were slain in his shooting massacre at the leftleaning Labor Partys youth camp on Utoya island outside the capital. Breivik has said the attacks were necessary to protect Norway from being taken over by Muslims. I admit to the acts, but not criminal guilt, he told the court, insisting he had acted in self-defense. The key issue to be resolved during the 10-week trial is the state of Breiviks mental health, which will See KILLER, page 3A

Van Wert County election campaign costs counted

By ED GEBERT Times Bulletin Editor VAN WERT All across the country, the amount of money spent on political campaigns continues to increase. Whether federal or state office, the expenses involved are increasing and as well as the willingness to spend. The same trend is true in Van Wert County elections. The recent primary race for county commissioner may be the most expensive campaign in county history. There were two seats contested for commissioner on March 6. One race featured two candidates Stan Owens and Denzil Wortman. The other contest had four candidates. That four-way race cost the candidates $27,000. While that figure is dwarfed by reports of presidential campaign spending along with candidates running for the U. S. House of Representatives and the Senate, the 2012 spending listed on financial reports, which were due Friday at the Board of Elections Office, showed greater spending at the county level than in previous years. Todd Wolfrum was at the top of the list, with reported expenses paid of $8,546.76. Next was Bill Evans, who reported expenses of $7,085.56, followed by Kim Brandt at $6,910.96 and Phil Baxter with spending at $4,575.12. The average spent in the four-sided contest was more than $6,750. Three of the candidates spent more than the average. The campaign spending average in the other

commissioners race was just $2,300. The four-way race was won by Wolfrum, with 38 percent compared to Brandt at 29 percent, Evans at 22 percent and Baxter at 10 percent. The reports show Wolfrum spent about $4.40 for each vote received, Brandt $4.70, Evans $6.35 and Baxter $8.70 The Owens-Wortman contest went to Owens with 77 percent of the vote; however, Wortman outspent Owens handily. Wortmans report showed spending of $3,174.27 while Owens spent $1,917.50 for a total of just over $4,600. That figure showed Owens spending approximately 50 cents per vote received while Wortman spent approximately $2.82 per vote. The only other candidate in a county race to show any expenses was sheriff candidate Tom Riggenbaugh, who spent just under $200 running unopposed. In general, costs in Van Wert County are lower than in most areas of the country. For instance, county races in 2010 in Dyer County, Tennessee, were much higher. There, a pair of sheriff candidates spent more than $37,000 combined, an average $18,500 each. A report from the Center for Responsive Politics showed that winners of congressional races in 2010 spent 70 percent more than winners did in 2000. While the candidate with the largest war chest is not guaranteed a win, wise spending in a campaign can certainly give a candidate an advantage through advertising and public exposure.

Victim reports assault

POLICE REPORT
Police seek hit/ skip driver
Police are looking for the driver of a vehicle that struck a parked vehicle in the parking lot of the Deer Creek Apartments. Matthew Binkley reported to police at 3:08 p.m. Saturday his vehicle had been legally parked in a parking space at 1020 Lima Ave. When an unknown vehicle struck the right side and left the scene of the accident without reporting it. If any one has information on his accident, contact the Delphos Police at 419-692-4015.

Illegal lane change causes crash

At 1:47 a.m. on Saturday, Delphos Police were called to the 400 block of West Clime Street in reference to an assault complaint. Upon officers arrival, they spoke with the victim who stated that while at a business in that area, a subject approached them and assaulted them. A copy of the report was forwarded to the prosecutors office for review and possible charges.

A Bluffton man was charged with a marked lane usage violation following a two-vehicle crash at East Fifth and North Washington streets reported at 10:59 a.m. Saturday. Police reports indicate Douglas Nickels, 51, of Bluffton was traveling eastbound in the inside lane on East Fifth Street and attempted to change lanes, not seeing a vehicle driven by Lola Busch, 63, of Delphos, traveling eastbound in the outside lane, resulting in an accident. No one was injured. Both vehicles sustained moderate damage.

decide whether he is sent to prison or into psychiatric care. Anxious to prove he is not insane, Brevik will call rightwing extremists and radical Islamists to testify during the trial, to show that others also share his view of clashing civilizations. Norways NRK television was broadcasting parts of the trial live but was not allowed to show Breiviks testimony. During todays opening session, he remained stonefaced and motionless as prosecutors read the indictment on the terror and murder charges, with descriptions of how each victim died, and when they explained how he prepared for the attacks. But Breivik suddenly became emotional when prosecutors showed an anti-Muslim video that he had posted on YouTube before the killing spree, wiping away tears on his cheek with trembling hands. After a lunch break, Breivik was again expressionless as he watched prosecutors present surveillance footage of the Oslo explosion. The blast ripped through the high-rise building that housed government headquarters, blowing out windows and filling surrounding streets with smoke and debris. He didnt flinch as prosecutors played a three-minute recording of a young womans frantic phone call to police from Utoya. Shots have been fired, the woman, who survived the

massacre, said with panic in her voice. Im pretty sure that there are many injured. More than a dozen shots in close succession could be heard as the woman fell silent. Are you still there? the police officer asked. Yes, she whispered. She fell silent again, breathing into the phone as more shots cracked in the background. Breivik also announced he doesnt recognize the authority of Judge Wenche Elisabeth Arntzen, because he said she is friends with the sister of former Norwegian Prime Minister and Labor Party leader Gro Harlem Brundtland. The anti-Muslim militant described himself as a writer, currently working from prison, when asked by the judge for his employment status. He claims he targeted the government headquarters in Oslo and the youth camp to strike against the left-leaning political forces he blames for allowing immigration in Norway. If deemed mentally competent, Breivik would face a maximum prison sentence of 21 years or an alternate custody arrangement under which the sentence is prolonged for as long as an inmate is deemed a danger to society. While Norway has a legal principle of preventive selfdefense, that doesnt apply to Breiviks case, said Jarl Borgvin Doerre, a legal expert who has written a book on the concept.

have lost their loved ones, especially the children, said Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin, who declared a state of emergency Sunday after touring the damage. Its always devastating to hear about the loss of life of children. Many residents in tornado alley have grown up counting on tornado sirens to warn them when a twister has been spotted on the ground, but emergency officials say that can be one of the least reliable methods, especially when a tornado hits at night. An outdoor warning system should never be the only way or even the primary way to receive a warning, said Rick Smith, a warning coordination meteorologist with the National Weather Service. Our message that we preach is you have to have several ways to receive a warning. Curt and Andra Raymer had taken steps to prepare for the storm, but thought they were in the clear when a television meteorologist warned residents to take cover just minutes before the storm hit. We heard the sirens yesterday afternoon, and they blew for 40 minutes, said Andra Raymer, 44, as she picked through the rubble of her home that was covered with insulation, broken glass and splintered wood. Last night when this one came through, we didnt hear anything. The couple and their dogs took shelter in an interior bathroom as the roof was lifted from their home and smashed in their backyard. Were just lucky to be alive, Curt Raymer said. We walked out into the street and just couldnt believe it. Emergency management officials urged residents to take advantage of weather radios, smartphones and television warnings to keep them up to speed when weather turns dangerous. Sirens are not designed to wake residents who are sleeping or to penetrate the thick insulation in todays homes, said Albert Ashwood, the director of Oklahomas Office of Emergency Management. Sirens are referred to as outdoor warning systems, and thats what theyre there for: to tell people who are outdoors to come inside and find out whats going on, Ashwood said.

Supermarket sets Good Neighbor Day

Information submitted The effects of the downturn in our economy are being felt in West Central and Northwest Ohio, where the number of families needing assistance to keep nutritious food on the table is on the rise. In response to this critical need, Chief Supermarket is sponsoring Good Neighbor Day at all store locations on Tuesday. This is the fourth annual Good Neighbor Day at Chief. More than $97,000 has been donated to local food pantries since 2009. On Tuesday, Chief will donate a percentage of sales to support our local food pantries. Customers are also being encouraged to purchase nonperishable food items to donate when they shop at any Chief location on April 17th. As customers check out, they can also opt to add a cash donation to their order for any amount. According to Chief Supermarkets Director of Marketing Annette Hoeffel, hunger is a growing problem for many families in every community. It affects children, who cant concentrate in school because they didnt eat a nutritious dinner the night before; Parents are having to choose between food and lifesustaining medicine; Families are wondering whether to pay the electric bill or buy food. Its a growing problem, said Hoeffel. Our business is feeding families and supporting the communities that support us. As a family-owned, local company, Chief feels compelled to help keep families together, starting with making sure they have enough of the right kind of food to eat every day. Together we are making a difference in our neighborhood. According to the West Ohio Food Bank: 45 percent of clients served by the West Ohio Food Bank report having to choose between paying for food and paying for gas for a car. 44 percent had to choose between paying for food and paying for utilities or heating fuel. 36 percent had to choose between paying for food and

paying their rent or mortgage. 35 percent had to choose between paying for food and paying for medicine or medical care. Funds donated will allow local food pantries to purchase staple food items, including produce, meat and frozen foods, at greatly reduced prices from the West Ohio Food Bank, which serves more than 170 pantries in 11 counties throughout West Central Ohio. Each dollar donation to West Ohio Food Bank will provide 25 pounds of food that will make 19 meals to feed 2 people for 3 days. Selected local food pantries that are not part of the West Ohio Food Bank group will also benefit directly from the donated funds. About Chief Supermarkets Chief Super Markets, Inc. is a family-owned, regional supermarket chain. The company operates 12 stores under the Chief and Rays banners in nine communities in northwest and west central Ohio.

Dont wait for Social Security check in mail

By STEPHEN OHLEMACHER Associated Press WASHINGTON Starting next year, the check will no longer be in the mail for millions of people who receive Social Security and other government benefits. The federal government, which issues 73 million payments a month, is phasing out paper checks for all benefit programs, requiring people to get payments electronically, either through direct deposit or a debit card for those without a bank account. The changes will affect people who get Social Security, veterans benefits, railroad pensions and federal disability payments. Tax refunds are exempt, but the Internal Revenue Service encourages taxpayers to get refunds electronically by processing those refunds faster than paper checks. About 90 percent of people who receive federal benefits already get their payments electronically, the Treasury Department says. New beneficiaries were required to get payments electronically starting last year, and with a few exceptions, the rest have to make the switch by March 2013. Its just that natural progression of moving to how people are used to receiving their funds, said Walt Henderson, director of the By RICARDO ALONSOZALDIVAR Associated Press Treasury Departments electronic funds transfer division. Henderson said electronic payments are safer and more efficient than paper checks; in 2010, more than 540,000 federal benefit checks were reported lost or stolen. The switch will save the government about $120 million a year. Social Security will save $1 billion over the next decade, according to the Treasury Department. You think of that paper check floating out there in the delivery system, with personal information on it, its much more susceptible to fraud versus an electronic payment, Henderson said. Advocates for seniors say they understand the governments desire to cut costs and take advantage of technologies that most workers already use. The food stamp program switched from paper coupons to debit cards in 2004. But they have raised concerns about requiring the switch for older retirees who may not be used to electronic payments. This will affect some very frail elderly people who are living by themselves, many of them, and doing well, but usually within the context of that old paper check that they deposit in the bank, said Web Phillips, a senior policy advisor for the National Committee to Protect Social Security and Medicare.

IT WAS NEWS THEN

Obama gets refocused on US

WASHINGTON (AP) President Barack Obama is returning to his familiar agenda of righting the U.S. economy and winning a second term, wrapping up three days of Latin American summitry that yielded mixed results and were clouded by a Secret Service scandal. Domestic issues are immediately on tap, with the Senate scheduled to vote today on Obamas proposal to increase taxes on millionaires. The proposal stands little chance of passing Congress, but Obama has cast it as an election-year theme as he seeks to paint sharp contrasts between himself and his likely Republican challenger, Mitt Romney. Obama returned to Washington late Sunday with a key free trade deal with Colombia ready to be fully enforced next month and with important face time with Latin American leaders that cannot hurt his diplomatic outreach. But the weekend trip to Cartagena, Colombia, for the sixth Summit of the Americas also underscored old and new fissures that exist between the United States and its southern neighbors, from the U.S. isolation of Cuba to calls by some Latin American leaders to defang the violent drug cartels by legalizing drugs. The trip was clouded by unseemly allegations against Secret Service personnel and military service members working on security in Cartagena ahead of Obamas arrival. Obama, at a press conference in Cartagena, said that if the accusations, proved true of course Ill be angry. The Secret Service sent 11 agents home and placed them on leave for misconduct as the agency investigates what happened. Five members of the military working with the Secret Service were confined to quarters, pending an investigation into an alleged prostitution scandal. I expect that investigation to be thorough, and I expect it to be rigorous, Obama said. We are representing the people of the United States, and when we travel to another country, I expect us to observe the highest standards. The story could also be kept alive in Congress where at least one Republican committee chairman suggested the scandal may not be an isolated incident. Obama began moving forward to domestic issues even as he was still wrapping up business in Cartagena. At the news conference, with Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos at his side, Obama mounted a vigorous defense of his tax proposals. I want everybody to remember, Im going to say this repeatedly: This is not an argument about taking from A to give to B. This is not a redistributionist argument that were making. Were making an argument about how do we grow the economy so that its going to be prospering in this competitive 21st century environment, Obama said.

Big gaps found in nursing homes disaster plans

WASHINGTON Tornado, hurricane or flood, nursing homes are woefully unprepared to protect frail residents in a natural disaster, government investigators say. Emergency plans required by the government often lack specific steps such as coordinating with local authorities, notifying relatives or even pinning name tags and medication lists to residents in an evacuation, according to the findings. Nearly seven years after Hurricane Katrinas devastation of New Orleans exposed the vulnerability of nursing homes, serious shortcomings persist. We identified many of the same gaps in nursing home preparedness and response, investigators from the inspector generals office of the Health and Human Services Department wrote in the report being released today. Emergency plans lacked relevant information. ... Nursing homes faced challenges with unreliable transportation contracts, lack of collaboration with local emergency management, and residents who developed health problems. The report recommends By KIMBERLY DOZIER AP Intelligence Writer that Medicare and Medicaid add specific emergency planning and training steps to the existing federal requirement that nursing homes have a disaster plan. Many such steps are now in nonbinding federal guidelines that investigators found were disregarded. In a written response, Medicare chief Marilyn Tavenner agreed with the recommendation, but gave no timetable for carrying it out. Nationally, more than 3 million people spent at least some time in a nursing home during 2009, according to latest available data. Nearly 40 percent of them, 1.2 million, were in the top 10 disasterprone states. The typical nursing home resident is a woman in her 80s or older, dealing with physical and mental limitations that leave her dependent on others for help with basic daily activities. Investigators pursued a two-track approach. First they looked at the number of nursing homes that met federal regulations for emergency planning and training. Then they went into the field to test how solid those plans were, in a sample of homes drawn from 210 facilities substantially affected by floods, hurricanes and wildfires across seven states in 2007-2010. On the surface, things stakes diplomatic jockeying. The parliament approved on Thursday recommendations intended to guide Pakistans government in its negotiations to reset the U.S. relationship. The guidelines allow for the blockade on U.S. and NATO supplies to be lifted. The lawmakers demanded a halt to CIA-led missile attacks but did not make that a prerequisite to reopening the supply lines. The relationship between Pakistan and the U.S. faltered after a series of incidents in 2011 that have damaged trust on both sides from the controversy over CIA security officer Ray Davis who killed two Pakistani alleged assailants and was later released to the U.S. Navy SEAL raid that killed Osama bin Laden in Pakistan in May, without Pakistani permission. But the arguable nadir in relations came in November, when U.S. forces returned fire they believed came from a Pakistani border post, killing 24 Pakistani troops. Those incidents led to the ejection of U.S. military trainers whod worked closely with Pakistani counter-insurgent forces, slowed CIA drone strikes, and joint raids and investigations by

The change has to be handled carefully and with a lot of sensitivity so there arent people who lose track of a payment or dont understand they have a card that came in the mail thats the source of their payment, Phillips said. Thats our concern. The switch is mandated by a Treasury rule issued in December 2010. Since then, the department has worked to educate the public. The government has created a website, www.GoDirect.org and a toll-free phone number, 1-800-333-1795, people can call for assistance. Treasury acknowledges they have a lot of education to do for people about how these things work, said David Certner, legislative policy director for AARP. Were a bit concerned about how easy its going to be to provide education, particularly for some in this older population who are not familiar with debit cards and dont have bank accounts. Certner said AARP wants the government to make it easier to get an exemption. Under the Treasury rule, current beneficiaries who are 90 and older wont be required to make the switch. People can get a waiver if using a debit card would impose a hardship, but the Treasury Department says those would be extreme, rare circumstances.

US officials: Drone strikes will go on in Pakistan

WASHINGTON The White House has no intentions of ending CIA drone strikes against militant targets on Pakistani soil, U.S. officials say, possibly setting the two countries up for diplomatic tensions after Pakistans parliament unanimously approved new guidelines for the countrys troubled relationship with the United States. U.S. officials say they will work in coming weeks and months to find common ground with Pakistan, but if a suspected terrorist target comes into the laser sights of a CIA drones hellfire missiles, they will take the shot. Its not the first time the U.S. has ignored Pakistans parliament, which demanded an end to drone strikes in 2008. Whats different now is that the Pakistani government is in a more fragile political state, and can no longer continue its earlier practice of quietly allowing the U.S. action while publicly denouncing it, Pakistani officials say. The White House declined to comment. All other officials spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the high

appeared to be in good shape. Ninety-two percent of the nations 16,000 nursing homes met federal regulations for emergency planning, while 72 percent met the standards for emergency training. A different story emerged when inspectors showed up at 24 selected nursing homes and started pulling files and interviewing staff. The specific facilities in California, Louisiana, Minnesota, North Carolina, North Dakota, Tennessee, and Texas were not identified in the report. All had been affected by disasters; 14 had evacuated and the remainder sheltered in place. A detailed, well-rehearsed emergency plan is a basic requirement for disaster preparedness. But at one home, the emergency plan was in several boxes. At another one, it was on a legal pad. Of the 24 emergency plans, 23 did not describe how to handle a residents illness or death during an evacuation. 15 had no information on specific medical needs of patients, such as feeding tubes and breathing equipment. Seven plans were silent on how to identify residents in an evacuation, such as by attaching wristbands or name tags. Inspectors said 15 made no provision for including medication lists. Pakistans intelligence service together with the CIA and FBI. The border incident led to the shutdown of border supply lines into Afghanistan, more than doubling the cost of shipping in supplies for the war effort. A recent series of high level U.S. military and State Department visits have produced backroom understandings on almost every issue except the drones, one former U.S. official briefed on the talks explained, with U.S. officials offering to negotiate some sort of payment to use the border crossing points, for instance. The White House is also still considering issuing an official apology for the deadly border incident, two senior U.S. officials say, which would help ease Pakistani outrage and demonstrate the Pakistani government wrested at least one major concession from the US. And while the U.S. has no intentions of stopping its CIA and FBI counterterrorist activities on Pakistani soil, the White House could take the step of withdrawing some of the staff for a few months until the spotlight is off the controversy, as it did last year after the Ray Davis incident, and again after the Bin Laden raid.

Vikings walk way to victory over Jeffcats

SPORTS

By JIM METCALFE

DELPHOS Jeffersons baseball team tied Leipsic with five hits apiece in their encounter on a cloudy and dreary Saturday afternoon at Wildcat Field. However, Wildcat pitchers walked 15 Vikings as the visitors grabbed a 7-2 non-league triumph. Those 15 free passes forced Jefferson senior pitchers Mike Joseph and Tony George to threw 162 pitches, 89 for balls. That is a lot of walks and a lot of pitches we had to throw. On a positive note, we made some good fielding plays in the first few innings that kept us in the game, Jefferson coach Doug Geary said. We struggled fielding the ball this week, so we worked on that at practice and it seemed to help. You just cant defend walks, especially against a very good team like Leipsic. For Leipsic mentor Darren Henry, it showed maturity. We have a lot of veteran players and they showed a lot of patience at the plate, Henry explained. We didnt hit the ball that well we did the night before but we still had a lot of good at-bats. We took what was given us. Two of the walks came in the top of the first inning against Joseph (2-2; 4 innings pitched, 2 hits, 3 runs, 2 earned, 5 BBs, 2 strikeouts) and that allowed Devin Mangas to knock in Nate Schey (4 walks) with a single into the hole that just got by sophomore shortstop Austin Jettinghoff and into left field. The Vikings (13-1) made it 2-0 in the second as another walk (Austin Brown), his stolen base and a shot by Trevor Schroeder (2-for-4, 3 runs batted in) into right that handcuffed senior first baseman Curtis Miller brought in the second run. The Wildcats (5-10) got a hit batter (junior Zach Kimmett) with one down in the home half but Mangas (4-0; 5 IPs, 4 hits, 2 BBs, 6 Ks) picked him off. A walk and a fielding error allowed Leipsic to get the first two batters on in the third but

Lancers declaw Tigers in baseball By Nick Johnson Times Bulletin Correspondent sports@timesbulletin.com MIDDLE POINT - The Lincolnview Lancer baseball team faced off against the Waynesfield-Goshen Tigers on Saturday at Lincolnview.

by Dillion Little and Lake Turner. Lincolnview pitcher Derek Friesner stopped the bleeding by getting the next three batters out to keep the score 2-0, Tigers. Just like the start of the first frame, the Tigers started the second inning hot with a single and a double (Ryan Agnew and Dakota Castor). Agnew scored when Lucas Gray grounded out to third baseman Conner McCleery, making the score 3-0. The Lancers bats finally came to life in the third when Clayton Longstreth doubled and later came around to dent the plate when Nick Leeth singled him home. Leeth stole second and third and later scored on a wild pitch. Also in the frame, three straight Lancers batters: Tyler Lovett, Mike Klausing and Friesner; singled to score two more runs and give Lincolnview a 4-3 lead. In the fourth, Agnew singled and advanced to third on a double by Castor and was awarded home due to fielder interference, tying the game at four. The bottom of the frame started with a single by Dalton Kayser and three straight walks to McCleery, Klausing and Brady Niese, each collecting an RBI, making the score 8-4, Lincolnview. In the fifth, Kyle Williams singled, stole second and third

the final at-bat. Senior pinchhitter Evan Neubert walked and freshman pinch-hitter Nick Fitch followed with a walk. Rickers bouncer advanced both and an out later, both touched the plate as senior Kyle Anspach lashed a double down the right-field line. He moved up on a wild toss but a foul-out ended the contest. We have yet to figure out the consistent and sustained effort it takes to win varsity baseball games, Geary added. We have a few too many players that are just showing up and going through the motions; we have to get that figured out about how to come in ready to play from the first pitch. We arent good enough to not play with effort and not do all the little things, especially because we arent going to score a ton of runs on average. Due to the continuing rain, the second game of the slated twinbill was cancelled. Devin didnt have his usual control, so he threw more pitches than he normally needs, Henry added. He was getting a little tired so we decided to replace him on the mound. Jefferson hosts Spencerville 5 p.m. Monday, while Leipsic hosts Vanlue the same day.

O-G Gold Medal Meet By Charlie Warnimont Sentinel Sports Editor

TRACK ROUNDUP
The Elida boys team were led by their sprinters with a pair of second-place finishes. Austin Etzler finished second in the 200 (23.65) and they were second in the 400 relay (46.24) with the team of Keaton Greeley, Clark Etzler, Anthony Sumpter and Austine Onwuegbnuchu. Nick Pauff, Greeley, Quentin Poling and Austin Etzler finished third in the 800 relay (1:34.62) and the same group was third in the 1,600 relay (3:33.79). On the girls side, Amanda Clay had a solid day placing in four events, while Andi Foster and Sydney Riethman provided the team with wins at the meet. After missing the Bath Invitational with a sore leg, Riethman returned to the lineup and won the long jump. Riethman led the event after qualifying with a jump of 16-8 and maintained that throughout the competition. Austin Etzler also finished third in the long jump with a leap of 20-3 . Foster won the 3,200 meter run with a time of 11:55.29 which was nearly two seconds faster than runner-up Audra Schroeder of Liberty-Benton. Foster finished second in the 1,600 run in 5:32.80 as Blufftons Hannah Chappell-Dick won in 5:21.10. Clay had three runner-up finishes for the Cougars and one fourth-place finish. She was runner-up in the 100 (13.14) and 400 (1:03.15) and she teamed with Alexis Dowdy, Whitney Meyers and Riethman to take second in the 800 Relay in 1:53.64. Clay finished fourth in the 200 dash (27.87). Dowdy finished third in the shot put for the Cougars with a throw of 43-4. The girls did an excellent job. They actually scored better than they did last week, Collins added. Sydney Riethman coming back for a couple of events helped them as she won the long jump and she was part of a relay. We are just trying to build her back into it gradually. Amanda Clay once again had a huge day for us scoring in four events. Andi Foster went under 12 in the two mile and won and came in second in the mile and ran a PR in that as well. The girls had a solid day. Everyone did a good job. The majority of Elidas girls points were provided by Rachel Foust in the discus as she finished third with a throw of 92-8. COLUMBUS GROVE A quality track and field invitational early in the season helps coaches see just where they are at and what they may need to work on in the weeks remaining before league meets and the tournaments. Coaches from a handful of local teams had that opportunity Friday night as the annual Bulldog Invitational was contested at Clymer Stadium in Columbus Grove. And while coaches saw some good things come out of the meet, they all would agree there are some things still to work on. One of the teams that came away happy Friday was the host Bulldog boys team. Columbus Grove came out of the field events with the lead and held on through the running events to win the meet with 113 points, 10 points in front of meet newcomer Anna with 103. Jefferson finished seventh in the meet with 40.5 points, while Ottoville was 10th with 14.5 points and Fort Jennings had two points. On the girls side, Ottoville led the local contingent with 52 points for fourth place followed by Columbus Grove with 50 points and Fort Jennings had 36 points for sixth. Jefferson was eighth with 30 points. Shawnee won the team championship with 105 points. The Bulldogs won their own invitational for the second straight season. This meet brings out the best in us and has for years, Columbus Grove boys coach Chris Grothaus said. I think being home, 12 teams, the kids look forward. They have a lot of friends and family here and are comfortable with their own track. We always seem to perform real well here at this meet during my time as head coach. The Bulldogs won a pair of field events as Caleb Grothaus won the long jump (20-9 ) and Dakota Vogt won the high jump (6-0). Vogt also won the discus falling short of winning the title by inch to Annas M. Long. Vogt had a top throw of 148-8. On the track, the Bulldogs recorded three wins as Derek Rieman won the 110 high hurdles (15.5) when Jeffersons Cody Biglow clipped the ninth hurdle and stumbled, only to hang on for second place in 16.6. The two switched spots in the 300 hurdles as Biglow won in 43.10 and Rieman was ---second in 43.5. Late Friday night Junior Jake Graham won a pair of events, taking the 1,600 Columbus (4:42.90) and 3,200 (10:15.40). Grove Invitational In the 3200, Groves Alex Shafer was second in 10:15.40.

(Continued from Page 6A) Grove sweeps BB twinbill By Dave Boninsegna The Delphos Herald COLUMBUS GROVE The Columbus Grove Invitational track meet was on Friday afternoon but the running continued into Saturday at the Bulldogs doubleheader baseball game with the CoryRawson Hornets. The Bulldogs not only swept the Hornets 10-0 and 13-9, they stole 10 bases on the day. The games had their defining contrasts as in the opener; Aaron Vorst pitched a runruled no-hitter. Vorst provided not only the pitching but at the plate, the lefty went 2-for-2 with a single, triple and a run batted in, while Blake Hoffman had a 2-for-2 morning with a pair of doubles and RBIs. In the nightcap, Vorsts batterymate, Matt Jay, provided the big pop for the Bulldogs as the hosts came from behind with a 6-run fifth on the strength of the aforementioned Jays grand slam to finish the sweep. Grove got the day going in the second inning of game one, sending nine batters to the plate, as the Bulldogs led 6-0. The hosts added three more in the third after Shafer, including Vorsts RBI triple and Hoffmans 2-bagger, making it

Roundup

OTTAWA Van Werts boys track team was missing a couple pieces of their usual lineup Saturday as they competed in the Gold Medal Invitational at Ottawa-Glandorf. Despite missing members of their usual lineup, the Cougar boys did quite well in what was a very difficult field of teams. The Cougars finished the day with 78 points which was good for second place. Liberty-Benton repeated as champions with 155 points and Bluffton was third with 58 points. The Elida boys finished seventh with 48 points, On the girls side, the Lady Cougars finished third with 79 points. The Lady Eagles repeated as Gold Medal champions with 150 points and OttawaGlandorf was second with 110 points. The Elida girls finished ninth with nine points. Liberty-Benton is very, very talented, they have a really strong program, Cougar coach Mark Collins said. We had some of the pieces of our puzzle missing today and that hurt a little bit as the competition is a little stiffer than last week. Overall, with the kids that came we did a nice job. They performed well, handled the conditions (wind, rain), warmed up well, didnt complain, got things accomplished and I was proud of them. Van Werts efforts Saturday were paced by junior Jared Fleming as he had a hand in three wins and one second place. Fleming won the 1,600-meter run in 4:39.59 and won the 800 in 1:59.25. To start his day, he joined Connor Holliday, Eric Easley and Luke Brubaker to win the 3200 relay. Fleming ran this race with very little warmup time as he taking the ACT test across the street at O-G High School Saturday morning. To finish a busy day, Fleming joined Nathan Wilhelm, Reggie Phillips and Seth Kopp to take second in the 1600 relay (3:33.43) behind LibertyBenton. Kopp provided the Cougars with four wins, taking the 400 dash in 51.74, while Reggie Phillips had a second-place showing in the 100 (11.59) and was fourth in the 200 (23.69). Connor Holliday was third in the 3,200-meter run (10:21.28) and Kase Schalois was fourth (10:32.33). The Cougars 800 relay team of Nathan Wilhelm, Kopp, Phillips and Tyson Crone were fourth (1:35.68) and Crone was fourth in the 300 hurdles (44.6).

and Shafer hit back to back doubles to put the game at 10-0. Game two looked to be more of the same as the Bulldogs platted four in the first inning and led 6-2 after two. Jay went 3-for-4 with four RBIs while Vorst had a 2-for-4 nightcap, driving in two runs. Trey Roney drove in three. The Hornets were led by Matt Alphachs 2-for-3 performance paired with three RBIs; Tyler Harris was 3-for-5 with a double and an RBI. Although down four the Hornets battled back in the nightcap, sending 11 batters to the plate in the fourth, scoring seven times and taking their first lead of the day at 9-6. The fifth inning would be the hosts big frame; the home team struck for six in the bottom half to retake the lead, including Jays grand slam. Grove added one more in the sixth to cap off the sweep. Grove hosts Bluffton this afternoon and visits Fort Jennings 5 p.m. Tuesday.

ally overachieved a little bit in this meet, Grothaus said. We came out of the field events in real good shape. Caleb won the long jump and Dakota the high jump and he just missed winning the discus. We had some surprises and thats all it takes. Derek winning the 110 hurdles but our distance guys were the key. Alex and Jake in that 3,200 sealed the meet for us as they went 1-2. They ran a smart race. Besides a first and second for the Wildcats Biglow, their 400 Relay team finished second in 45.10 to Annas record setting performance of 44.20. Joining Biglow on that squad were Darren Edinger, Chris Truesdale and Nick Gallmeier. We had a couple of nice showings from Cody Biglow in the 100 hurdles and 300 hurdles, Jefferson boys coach Bub Lindeman said. He didnt have his best time in the 300s but we feel he is chipping away at the times. Relay-wise, our 4x1 took second place with a good time for this time of the year and we were running against an Anna team that won this event at state last year. This gives us a good measuring stick for this early in the season. We were really happy with the teams effort tonight, but we are still trying to work some things out. The Jefferson girls were led by senior Kennedy Boggs as she won the high jump in clearing 5-2 and took second in the 400 in 1:02.5. The Lady Wildcats also placed in the sprint relays, taking fourth in the 800 relay and they were fourth in the 1,600 relay. We have some young girls that are in some different events this year after we graduated a strong senior class last year, Lady Wildcat coach Ryan Carder said. To get these girls some experience in a meet like this will help us out in future meets. We did about as well as expected. We didnt do as well as we had in the past but to get our young athletes some experience is key. The Fort Jennings girls team had three runner-up finishes in the meet as they took second in the 3,200 relay (10:33.6) as they inserted their sprinters into the lineup. They also took second in the 1,600 relay (4:22.70) and saw Kaitlyn Stechschulte finish second in the 800. Ottovilles Tonya Kaufman finished second in the high jump as she cleared 5-0 and she was second in the 300 hurdles (49.0) Tammy Wannemacher finished second in the shot put with a throw of 36-1 and Rachel Beining was third with a throw of 32-8. Wannemacher finished third in the discus with a throw of 111-9 right behind Columbus Groves Megan Verhoff as she was second with a throw of 118-6.

Anniversary

Hunger Games earns $21.5M to slap down Stooges

By DAVID GERMAIN The Associated Press LOS ANGELES Movie fans have chosen real violence over the slapstick variety as The Hunger Games held off The Three Stooges to remain the No. 1 weekend movie. Lionsgates The Hunger Games, the blockbuster about teens competing in a televised fight to the death, stayed on top for a fourth-straight weekend with $21.5 million. That raises the films domestic total to $337.1 million. I think a couple of weeks ago, if someone had told us where wed be, we would have said, Wed like to see that number, but it would be a pleasant surprise. So were in that pleasant surprise spot at this point, said Richie Fay, head of distribution for Lionsgate. Peter and Bobby Farrellys slapstick update The Three Stooges opened in secondplace with $17.1 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. That was well above industry expectations of around $10 million for the 20th Century Fox update starring Chris Diamantopoulos as Moe, Sean Hayes as Larry and Will Sasso as Curly. Fox executives had figured the movie would appeal mainly to young males. But it also pulled in older men who grew up on the Stooges and a fair number of women and girls as whole families turned out to see it, said Chris Aronson, the By TOM WITHERS The Associated Press studios head of distribution. If youre predisposed to open your mind, its a laugh riot, Aronson said. The acclaimed horror tale The Cabin in the Woods debuted in third-place with $14.9 million. A smart, twisting take on the genre produced and co-written by Joss Whedon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), the long-delayed Cabin in the Woods had been one of the films caught up in MGMs bankruptcy but was finally released by Lionsgate. On the 100th anniversary of the ships sinking on April 15, 1912, the 3-D version of James Camerons Titanic sailed past the $2 billion mark worldwide. Titanic is just the second blockbuster to top $2 billion, trailing only the next film Cameron made the sci-fi sensation Avatar, which took in $2.8 billion. Domestically, Titanic held the No. 4 spot with $11.6 million. The 3-D re-release has taken in $44.4 million domestically to lift the films lifetime total to $645.2 million. Titanic also pulled in $88.2 million in 69 overseas markets, including a huge $58 million 3-D debut in China. That brought the 3-D reissues overseas total to $146.4 million and the worldwide sum for re-release to $190.8 million. Added to the $1.84 billion take from the original release of the 1997 hit, Titanic has climbed to a lifetime total of about $2.03 billion. Another big overseas haul came with Universals Battleship, which opened with $58 million in 26 countries five weeks ahead of its U.S. debut on May 18. The action tale featuring Taylor Kitsch and Liam Neeson is inspired by the game Battleship. The Hunger Games added $15 million overseas to bring its international total to $194 million and its worldwide haul to $531 million. The weekends other new domestic wide release, Film Districts sci-fi story Lockout, opened at No. 9 with $6.3 million. The movie stars Guy Pearce trying to quell an uprising at an orbiting space prison. With no big new debut on the domestic front, the overall box office slipped for only the second weekend this year. Domestic revenues totaled $117 million, down 10 percent from the same weekend last year, when Rio led with $39.2 million, according to box-office tracker Hollywood. com. Domestic revenues this year are at $2.98 billion, 19.3 percent ahead of 2011s, putting Hollywood on a record money pace with a big summer lineup just weeks away. The superhero tale The Avengers kicks off the summer season May 4. Revenues may continue to lag over the next couple of weeks compared to last year, when the action hit Fast Five boosted business just before the summer season.

Kenny and Joanne Wrasman of Delphos celebrated 45 years of marriage on April 8 with a family dinner.

Lionel Richie, Pamela Anderson among tax scofflaws

LOS ANGELES (AP) Pamela Anderson and Lionel Richie owe the government money. California tax authorities said Anderson owes $524,241 in personal income taxes. The Franchise Tax Board included the Baywatch star on a list of the states 500 biggest income-tax delinquents posted Friday. Meanwhile, E! Online reports Richie owes the federal government $1.1 million in unpaid taxes and that a lien has been issued warning that the singers assets may be seized if he doesnt pay up in a timely manner. A message seeking comments from Richies publicist wasnt immediately returned Saturday. A call to Andersons tax attorney, Robert Leonard, wasnt immediately returned. California law requires tax authorities to update and publish the names and amounts owed by the states 500 biggest tax scofflaws twice a year. When taxpayers do not pay their fair share, it places an unfair burden on those who do, the tax board said on its web site, which said the 500 owe the state nearly $233 million. Other notable names on Californias tax-delinquent list include CNET co-founder Halsey Minor, Joe Francis, the founder of the Girls Gone Wild video empire, actor Nick Cassavetes and boxer James Toney. Minor and his wife, Shannon, are on top of the list for owing the state $10.5 million in personal income taxes. Francis owes $794,000, Cassavetes, the son of filmmaker John Cassavetes and actress Gena Rowlands, owes $273,000 while Toney owes $354,000.

This year, we dont really have something like that, but with the 20 percent lead we have over last year, we dont really need it. We are in terrific shape going into summer, said Hollywood.com analyst Paul Dergarabedian. Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Hollywood.com. Where available, latest international numbers are also included. Final domestic figures will be released today. 1. The Hunger Games, $21.5 million ($15 million international). 2. The Three Stooges, $17.1 million. 3. The Cabin in the Woods, $14.9 million ($3.4 million international). 4. Titanic in 3-D, $11.6 million ($88.2 million international). 5. American Reunion, $10.6 million ($11.8 million international). 6. Mirror Mirror, $7 million ($10.2 million international). 7. Wrath of the Titans, $6.9 million ($16 million international). 8. 21 Jump Street, $6.8 million ($4 million international). 9. Lockout, $6.3 million. 10. Dr. Seuss the Lorax, $3 million ($8.6 million international).

Guns N Roses jams way into Rock Hall

CLEVELAND On their way into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Guns N Roses got together for one more gig. Axl Rose missed it. The hedonistic hard rockers, who became the worlds top music act amid endless dysfunction, members of Guns N Roses reunited for three songs on Saturday night before 6,000 fans, many of whom were thrilled to see at least most of the bands original lineup jam on classic hits like Sweet Child O Mine and Paradise City. Rose, the bands frontman and ringmaster of the G N R traveling sex, drugs and rock and roll circus, declined to attend the induction, saying he didnt want to be part of the ceremony because it doesnt appear to be somewhere Im actually wanted or respected. He was hardly missed. While his decision disappointed some hardcore fans and ended any possibility of a fullscale reunion of the original lineup, guitarist Slash, bassist Duff McKagan and drummer Steve Adler performed for the first time in nearly 20 years to the delight of the sell-out crowd inside historic Public Hall. Guns N Roses were one of the headliners of this years eclectic group of inductees, which included the Red Hot Chili Peppers, the Beastie Boys, folk icon Donovan, late singer-songwriter Laura Nyro and British bands the Small Faces and Faces. The event lasted well into the early morning with an AllStar jam featuring some of rocks biggest names closing the 5 1/2-hour ceremony with a stirring rendition of Stevie Wonders Higher Ground. Cleveland rocked without Rose. As he inducted Guns N Roses, Green Days Billie Joe Armstrong recalled the first time he saw the band on MTV. I thought, one these guys could end up dead or in jail, he said. Guns N Roses came out both barrels blaring and their debut album Appetite For Destruction, shook a music world that at the time was consumed with pop ballads and dance music.

How to help avoid fading hair color

Dear Sara: How do I keep my hair color from fading? I just got my hair highlighted yesterday (color, not bleach) and its an expensive process. But usually within the first two weeks it fades a lot. Ive done some reading and learned that hair color fades the most in the first two weeks and then stabilizes. I also heard that if I rinse it in vinegar it will stop the fading, but when I looked on the Internet I discovered thats what Im supposed to do if its too dark and I want it to fade faster. I dont know what to do! -- Bunny, Virginia Dear Bunny: Im not a specialist in this area, but Ive had good success with Redken Color Extend. You might find that brands such as TRESemme Color Revitalize Shampoo work just as well. I suggest you use cooler water versus hot water to shampoo, and avoid washing your hair in the first 48 hours after coloring. Semipermanent color fades faster than permanent hair color. Red dyes fade more quickly than other colors, too. I would think vinegar would lead to more fading, so I would focus more on making sure your hair is healthy and conditioned and not dry or damaged prior to coloring.

Frugal Living
Dear Sara: What do you think when you see an obscene display of wealth (which frugal people see all the time, right)? Today I saw a guy in his early 30s driving a Porsche Carrera, a pretty common sight where I live as there are many wealthy (or apparently wealthy) people living in my part of town. When I see that kind of blatant display of wealth, it just screams insecurity to me. Do they really value the fine engineering that can only be found in a Porsche, or are they just trying to impress the guy in the next lane? I just feel so lucky to not be caught up in all of that. Im curious to know if you feel as annoyed as I do about such blatant displays of wealth. -- B. Smith, forums Dear B. Smith: I cant say I think much about it. I suppose if I look for an example that annoys me, it would be when people are wasteful. But this happens with some people

whether theyre wealthy or not. While Im not extreme over it (I dont force my kids to eat every speck off their plate until its clean -- I simply encourage them to only take what they can eat), seeing food wasted seems to bother me the most. I cant help but think about those who go without. But when it comes to luxury cars or boats, homes, fashion, jewelry, etc., I just dont place as much value or priority on those kinds of things, so it doesnt affect me much. I dont consider those items obscene displays of wealth, though. Its not up to me to judge how other people spend their money or how much. I dont need to contrast another persons spending with my own frugality. And on the flip side, I dont really care how others value my own personal wealth.

UNs Ban: Syria must allow observers full access

By ZEINA KARAM The Associated Press BEIRUT U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said Monday the Syrian government is responsible for guaranteeing U.N. observers full freedom of movement to monitor the countrys tenuous cease-fire, which appeared to be unraveling as regime forces pounded the opposition stronghold of Homs, activists said. Even though the overall level of violence across Syria has dropped significantly since the truce took effect Thursday, the governments shelling of Homs over the weekend raised fresh doubts about President Bashar Assads commitment to special envoy Kofi Annans plan to end 13 months of violence and launch talks on the countrys political future. An advance team of six observers arrived in Damascus late Sunday and quickly set about negotiating the missions ground rules with Syrian authorities. Ban, speaking to reporters in Brussels, called on Assad to ensure the observers are not impeded in any way in their work. It is the Syrian governments responsibility to guarantee freedom of access, freedom of movement within the country, he said Monday. They should be allowed to freely move to any places where they will be able to observe this cessation of violence. He called the cease-fire very fragile, but said it was essential that it hold so that an inclusive political dialogue can continue. He said opposition forces should also fully cooperate. The U.N. plans to increase the advance team to 30 people, all of them unarmed, Ban said, adding that the Security Council is expected to authorize a formal monitoring team of about 250 people later this week. The advance team, led by Moroccan Col. Ahmed Himmiche, met Monday with Syrian Foreign Ministry officials to discuss ground rules, including what freedom of movement the observers would have, according to Annans spokesman, Ahmad Fawzi. Although the Security Council has demanded full access for the U.N. team, Assads regime could try to create obstacles. The failure of an Arab League observer mission earlier this year was blamed in part on regime restrictions imposed on the monitors, including having

to travel with government minders. Fawzi said in a statement issued in Geneva on Monday that the mission will start with setting up operating headquarters, and reaching out to the Syrian government and the opposition forces so that both sides fully understand the role of the U.N. observers. We will start our mission as soon as possible and we hope it will be a success, Himmiche told The Associated Press as he left a Damascus hotel along with his team Monday morning. The international community hopes U.N. observers will be able to stabilize the cease-fire, which formally took effect Thursday, although pockets of violence have persisted, particularly in the central cities of Hama and Homs.

Small bright side forms after Manson murders

By TRACIE CONE Associated Press CORCORAN, Calif. On August 9, 1969, two naive 17-year-old girls were launched on a path that led to the unlikeliest of friendships. That infamous night, four young people under the sway of a charismatic career criminal slipped into a neighborhood of Hollywood glitterati, then bludgeoned and stabbed rising young actress Sharon Tate, coffee heiress Abigail Folger and three others. Across town the next night, the band killed again. The name Charles Manson quickly became a synonym for unimaginable evil, which nobody knows better than Debra Tate, Sharons little sister, and Barbara Hoyt, the Manson family member whose testimony helped put the killers in prison. Weve got a lot in common, said Hoyt, now a retired nurse. She has been a big help to me. She makes sure I am holding my head up high, Tate said, and I do the same for her. Now both about 60, a Manson family member and the last living Tate family member have bonded in their long quest to keep those responsible behind bars. Both have testified repeatedly at Mansons parole hearings. Both say they still get threats from the cult killers supporters mostly white supremacists enamored with murders Manson orchestrated to incite a race war dubbed Helter Skelter. Even now not a day passes without Hoyt dwelling on the suffering Manson and her former comrades inflicted and on the widespread terror that ensued. We are completely linked by this event whether we want to be or not, she said of Debra Tate, who now runs a crime victims group. She understands me, and I understand where shes coming from. Hoyt never committed a crime for Manson, and her testimony helped send the cult leader and four followers to death row in 1971. The following year, when the California Supreme Court ruled the death penalty unconstitutional, their new life terms made them eligible for a while for annual parole consideration. That is when the lives of

Barbara Hoyt and Debra Tate began to intertwine. Over the decades, each has written letters to parole panels urging that the killers never be released, and each has traveled to obscure California farming towns for parole hearings in prisons housing some of the states most notorious convicts. At first Hoyt testified partly out of fear that the killers would seek revenge if released. But after becoming a registered nurse, she realized that the psychological and emotional pain of having to relive her involvement with the cult was another part of her payback to society. Its a descent into hell and then having to climb back out again, Hoyt said. I think about it and I feel I was simply there to be a witness, because that has been my role. God gave me that role, and thats my reality. Meanwhile Tates late mother, Doris, had become the driving force for victims rights in California and was instrumental in a 1982 law that allows family members to testify about their losses at trials and parole hearings. When Doris died, that left her daughters Debra and Patti to carry on with her work. Patti died of breast cancer in 2000, leaving Debra, disabled from a postal service accident, to go it alone. Over time our mutual efforts brought us together, Hoyt said. Now they talk regularly on the phone and get together when theyre in the same town, usually for a parole hearing. Tate lives in the Southern California desert, and Hoyt in the Pacific Northwest, the specific location she wants to keep secret. Trapped in drab institutional waiting rooms, they realized they were the same age and shared similar middleclass upbringings. Both were divorced mothers who raised daughters on their own. In 2006, when Manson associate Bruce Davis was up for parole for another murder Manson had orchestrated, the two had time to talk. I discovered that I really like Barbara, said Tate, who now works for victims rights through her website www.sharontate.net. She is a good person. She has a good soul and a good spirit and she has come through for us when it was very iffy whether these core members were going to get out.

rial trip marked 100 years to the moment since the Titanic sent more than 1,500 people to a watery grave. As the 1912 disaster was commemorated around the world, the city that built the vessel Belfast, Northern Ireland looked back on the tragic sinking with a distinctive mixture of sorrow and pride. In the North Atlantic, passengers lined the decks of the MS Balmoral, a cruise ship that has been retracing the route of the doomed voyage, as the ship stopped early Sunday at the spot where the Titanic went down in the early hours of April 15, 1912. After a short service and a moment of silence, three floral wreaths were cast onto the waves as the ships whistle sounded in the dark. Jane Allen from Devon in southwest England, whose great-uncle perished on the Titanic, said the moment vividly reminded her of the horror of the disaster. All you could hear was the swell splashing against the side of the ship. You could see the white breakers stretching out to sea, she told the BBC. You are in the middle of nowhere. And then you look down over the side of the ship and you realize that every man and every woman who didnt make it into a lifeboat had to make that decision, of when to jump or stay on the ship as the lights went out. Another cruise ship, Journey, which traveled from New York, also held a service at the site, 400 miles (640 kilometers) off the coast of Newfoundland. The Titanic, the worlds largest and most luxurious ocean liner, was traveling from England to New York when it struck an iceberg at 11:40 p.m. on April 14, 1912. It sank less than three hours later, with the loss of all but 700 of the 2,208 passengers and crew. A century on, events around the globe marked a tragedy that retains its grip on the worlds imagination. In Belfast, a memorial monument was unveiled Sunday at a ceremony attended by local dignitaries, relatives of the dead and explorer Robert Ballard, who discovered the wreck of the Titanic on the ocean floor in 1985. A brass band played as the granite plinth bearing bronze plaques was uncovered beside Belfast City Hall. Officials say it is the first Titanic memorial to list all victims alphabetically, with no distinction between passengers and crew members, or between first-, second- or third-class travelers. We remember all those who perished and whose names are herein inscribed men, women and children who loved and were loved, their loss still poignantly felt by their descendants, the Rev. Ian Gilpin told the crowd. After a minutes silence, a choir sang Nearer My God To Thee the hymn Titanics band is reported to have played as the ship went down. Belfast spent decades scarred by its link to the disaster, but has come to take pride in the feats of engineering and industry involved in building the ship. Last month, a gleaming new visitor attrac-

tion, Titanic Belfast, opened on the site of the shipyard where the doomed vessel was built. The focus of the world is on Belfast and we are doing her proud, said Una Reilly, chair of the Belfast Titanic Society. We are all proud of this ship. What happened was a disaster; she was not. On Saturday, thousands attended a memorial concert in Belfast featuring performances by Bryan Ferry and soul singer Joss Stone. At St. Annes Cathedral in the city, a performance of composer Philip Hammonds The Requiem for the Lost Souls of the Titanic was followed by a torch-lit procession to the Titanic memorial garden in the grounds of city hall. The requiem performed by male choristers dressed as ships crew and female performers in black also included words by Belfast novelist Glenn Patterson, who imagined the victims reflecting on all they had missed in the last 100 years. We passed instead into myth, launched a library full of books, enough film to cross the Atlantic three times over, more conspiracy theories than Kennedy, 97 million web pages, a tourist industry, a requiem or two, Patterson said. We will live longer than every one of you.

Texas eatery serves $12K, 10-course Titanic meal

By RAMIT PLUSHNICK-MASTI Associated Press HOUSTON Crystal tinkles as women clad in dinner best bow their heads over champagne glasses, listening attentively to the captains evening address. The Armagnac they sip is circa 1900. The dishes, crystal and silverware also hark back to a bygone era one when the Titanic sailed the high seas, destined for disaster. On this evening, though, the captain is Ryan Roberts, executive director of Cullens restaurant in Houston. Were here to remember the people who perished on that fateful night, so if we could just bow our heads in a moment of silence, Roberts said, his white-gloved hands reminiscent of the opulence of the Edwardian era that birthed the lush first-class cabins and dining rooms of what was then the worlds largest ship. Its the 100th anniversary of the maiden voyage of the RMS Titanic, which hit an iceberg in the North Atlantic on a frigid, dark night, killing 1,514 people. And to mark the occasion, 12 people in Houston enjoyed a replica of the lavish 10-course dinner the wealthiest people aboard the ship enjoyed just before the crash. The dinner was one of many served from New York to Memphis, Tenn., and across the oceans to Hong Kong, as chefs attempted to transport diners to a time when waiters in starched coats and napkins hanging from their arms served an upper class that was far removed from the common man, who filled the lower portions of the Titanic and went largely unnoticed by the wealthy until they perished together in the cold sea. At Cullens, Roberts and Chef Paul Lewis spent months researching the menu, the waiters attire, the china, silverware, crystal, wines, cognacs and Burgundies, hoping to offer their guests an experience as close to the actual event as possible. Pairing up with the Museum of Natural Science to include a tour of its Titanic exhibit, they came up with a $12,000 feast for each party of 12 that will be offered through September, when the ships relics will move on to a new destination. After viewing the exhibit, diners are driven by limousine to the upscale restaurant about 20 miles south of downtown Houston, where they are seated in an exclusive dining area suspended over the main hall. There, they are treated to an array of foods from around the world prepared by cooks who have for months practiced and discussed how to interpret a menu too lavish for todays palette. The truffles are from France, the oysters from neighboring Louisiana, the salmon from Scotland. The portions, however, have been scaled down, and some such as the Consommi Olga, a Russian-style meat broth were given a more modern twist. We wanted to make sure theres enough there to give you the flavor or the substance but nothing to make you hugely uncomfortable sitting there, dreading the next course, Lewis said. Dinner back then was a little bit different as well. If you didnt want a course, you just waved it off and the waiter would just skip you and go onto the next person, Lewis said. Of course, we dont want that. We want to make sure that everyone gets a little bit of everything. Finding the menus from the Titanic first, second and third class was fairly easy. They are among the artifacts that were recovered from the wreckage. Rather, it was making sense of the scant descriptions, such as roast duckling, apple sauce, that was more complex, Lewis said. He cross-referenced the menu with other research, then came up with his interpretation of the meal. But what did the waiters wear? To answer this question, Roberts went to the movie and finally dressed his waiters in white tuxedo jackets, making sure all, including himself, donned white gloves. Unable to find a complete set of china, silverware and flatware for a 10-course meal or confirm the authenticity of HMS Titanic sets offered online, Roberts finally turned to those who have some memory of the era. We begged, borrowed and pleaded with a lot of grandmas to find that china, he said, noting that diners will eat off of sets from the 1900s that none of us have even touched and werent allowed to eat on, Roberts said. Tracking down some of the food was also a challenge, Lewis said. Truffles, for example, are between seasons and the chef was reluctant to use a canned variety. So he called in a favor from a friend who works at a restaurant in New York and the earthy mushrooms arrived barely 48 hours before the big dinner. And then, there was the hunt for the drinks. Roberts found no wine or drink list from the Titanic. So instead, he hunted down some wines and ports he believes the people on the ship may have enjoyed with their meal, and a couple of bottles of Armagnac from that era, one at a cost of $400 per ounce, or nearly $4,000 for the bottle.
