6 tanks at Hanford nuclear site in Wash. leaking

BY SHANNON DININNY The Associated Press YAKIMA, Wash. Six underground tanks that hold a brew of radioactive and toxic waste at the nations most contaminated nuclear site are leaking, federal and state officials said Friday, prompting calls for an investigation from a key senator. Washington Gov. Jay Inslee said the leaking material poses no immediate risk to public safety or the environment because it would take a while perhaps years to reach groundwater. But the leaking tanks raise new concerns about delays for emptying them and strike another blow to federal efforts to clean up south-central Washingtons Hanford Nuclear Reservation, where successes often are overshadowed by delays, budget overruns and technological challenges. Department of Energy spokeswoman Lindsey Geisler said there was no immediate health risk and said federal officials would work with Washington state to address the matter. Regardless, Tom Towslee, a spokesman for Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., said the senator will be asking the Government Accountability Office to investigate Hanfords tank monitoring and maintenance program. Wyden is the new chairman of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee. State officials just last week announced that one of Hanfords 177 underground tanks was leaking 150 to 300 gallons a year, posing a risk to groundwater and rivers. So far, nearby monitoring wells havent detected higher radioactivity levels. Inslee traveled to Washington, D.C., this week to discuss the problem with federal officials. He said Friday that he learned in meetings that six tanks are leaking waste. We received very disturbing news today, the governor said. I think that we are going to have a course of new action and that will be vigorously pursued in the next several weeks. The federal government built the Hanford facility at the height of World War II as part of the Manhattan Project to build the atomic bomb. The remote site produced plutonium for the bomb dropped on Nagasaki, Japan, and continued supporting the nations nuclear weapons arsenal for years.

Traditional, Club or Open-Faced?

This is the first installment of a series examining multi-generational household dynamics. BY STEPHANIE GROVES sgroves@delphosherald.com According to a survey conducted by the Pew Research Center, just over 1 of every 8 Americans aged 40 to 60 is both raising a child and caring for a parent, in addition to between 7 to 10 million adults caring for their aging parents from a long distance. Whos living together and why Theres no doubt the Sandwich Generations are making big financial sacrifices to help each other. Many 19-22-year-old college students, 60 percent of young adults, receive monetary assistance from their parents. In fact, a survey conducted of 2,500 adults found that 50 percent of those aged 40-59 have financially supported at least one child who is 18 or older. The Full Nest Syndrome has been revived. Throughout the recession and the slow recovery, more adult children in their 20s and 30s, called the Boomerang Generation, have returned home from college or for a fresh start while they look for jobs. Nearly half (48 percent) of adults ages 18-34 who are not employed either live with their parents or moved in with them temporarily because of economic conditions. Among those who are employed full or part time, 35 percent are still living at home or moved back for a short time. The Office for National Statistics figures released in 2012 read that nearly a quarter of 20-34-year-olds were still living with their parents in 2011. In addition, the number of married couples living in a parents home has escalated to levels not seen since the turn of the 20th century. As more and more people live longer, a significant portion of the older boomer generation or Sandwich Seniors, affectionately named returnto-the-roost-ers, will rely upon their family for support. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the number of older Americans increased by 9.7 percent from 2000 to 2010, when there were about 40 million people age 65 or older. The first of the baby boomers hit age 65 on Jan. 1 and between 7,000 and 10,000 more will pass that mark every day for the next 19 years.

Family dynamics are evolving. Today, more than 50 million Americans reside in multi-generational homes.

cial strain, the country as a whole will suffer the consequences of the overextension. Medicare will be the first federal program to feel the economic pinch. With 2.5 million Americans enrolling in the program this year and another 70 million or so over the next 18 years flooding the system, providing aging Americans with long-term care is a major concern since the program will remain solvent only until 2024. The overflow into the system could deplete the very health insurance account that baby boomers have paid into their whole working lives. Medicaid and Medicare statistics The total number of Medicare recipients in Ohio in 1990 was 1.7 million and by 2010, the number increased to almost 1.9 million. In the year 2000, there were 42,887,000 people receiving Medicaid in the United Statesover 3 million of the recipients were age 65 and overwhich totaled close to $169 billion.

Gettysburg would decrease by 2 one-fifth the numbers of school chil3 dren who learn about the historic 4 Pennsylvania battle that was a turning 5 point in the Civil War. As Americas financial clock ticks 6-7 8 toward forced spending cuts to countless 9 government agencies, The Associated Press has obtained a National Park Service memo that compiles a list of potential effects at the nations most beautiful and historic places just as

National park cuts detailed in memorandum

spring vacation season begins. Were planning for this to happen and hoping that it doesnt, said Park Service spokesman Jeffrey Olson, who confirmed that the list is authentic and represents cuts the department is considering. Park Service Director Jon Jarvis last month asked superintendents to show by Feb. 11 how they would absorb the 5 percent funding cuts. The memo includes some of those decisions. While not all 398 parks had submitted plans by the time the memo was written, a pattern of deep slashes that could harm resources and provide fewer protections for visitors has emerged. In Yosemite National Park in California, for example, park administrators fear that less frequent trash pickup would potentially attract bears into campgrounds. The cuts will be challenging considering they would be implemented over the next seven months peak season for national parks. Thats especially true in Yellowstone, where the summertime crush of millions of visitors in cars and RVs dwarfs those who venture into the park on snowmobiles during the winter. More than 3 million people typically visit Yellowstone between May and September, 10 times as many as the park gets the rest of the year. This is a big, complex park, and we provide a lot of services that people dont realize, Yellowstone spokesman Al Nash said. They dont realize were also the water and wastewater treatment operators and that its our job to patch potholes, for heavens sake. The memo says that in anticipation of the cuts, a hiring freeze is in place and the furloughing of permanent staff

is on the table. Clear patterns are starting to emerge, the memo said. In general, parks have very limited financial flexibility to respond to a 5 percent cut in operations. Most of the Park Services $2.9 billion budget is for permanent spending such as staff salaries, fuel, utilities and rent payments. Superintendents can use about 10 percent of their budgets on discretionary spending for things ranging from interpretive programs to historic-artifact maintenance to trail repair, and they would lose half of that to the 5 percent cuts. Theres no fat left to trim in the Park Service budget, said John Garder of the nonprofit parks advocacy group the National Park Conservation Association. In the scope of a year See CUTS, page 2

I dont know how closely you have been following a couple of cases but my husband and I have found Jodi Arias fascinating. She looks like the girl next door. However, dont be fooled. She stabbed her ex-boyfriend 30 times, shot him in the face and slit his throat. She lied twice, saying at first she wasnt there, then ninjas did it and then she claimed self-defense. Ninjas? Really? No. Not really. I have watched her try to explain why all the lies if it was self-defense and even saw a new friend say anyone who is scared lies. Really? No. Not really. Ive heard her describe their relationship and say she feared for her life even though they were broken up at the time and he allegedly planned to take another woman to Mexico. I think what she feared was that the man she wanted was slipping away. Perry Mason, where are you? Matlock got any ideas? I would make a really crappy juror. I say balderdash when I see or hear balderdash. Once she said something that I knew could not be true, I would be done. A liar is a liar is a liar. I feel Miss Arias just makes it harder for people who are truly abused and fighting for their lives and/or those of their children. She admitted she had broken up with him.

Arias and Pistorius: cell mates?

For The Record

On the Other hand

If she truly felt threatened by him, why did she go to his home? The only question that remains for me is why do I keep watching this stuff? Oscar Pistorius walked out of a South African court Friday a free man after he was release on bail ahead of his premeditated murder trial over the shooting death of his girlfriend. He says he thought she was an intruder in his bathroom when he fired seven shots through the closed door. Lots of questions remain unanswered here, too. If he thought there was an intruder in his home, why didnt he check on his girl-friend to make sure she was OK? Why didnt he just call police or get them both out of the house? Why? I realize neither of these two is going to tell me what really happened. The time for that has passed. They are now fighting for their lives and anything goes that will help. I think these two would make great cell mates. They spend their time making up silly reasons for why they do things.

FDA approves new targeted The Delphos breast cancer drug Herald
BY MATTHEW PERRONE WASHINGTON (AP) The Food and Drug Administration has approved a first-of-a-kind breast cancer medication that targets tumor cells while sparing healthy ones. The drug Kadcyla from Roche combines the established drug Herceptin with a powerful chemotherapy drug and a third chemical linking the medicines together. The chemical keeps the cocktail intact until it binds to a cancer cell, delivering a potent dose of anti-tumor poison. Cancer researchers say the drug is an important step forward because it delivers more medication while reducing the unpleasant side effects of chemotherapy. This antibody goes seeking out the tumor cells, gets internalized and then explodes them from within. So its very kind and gentle on the patients theres no hair loss, no nausea, no vomiting, said Dr. Melody Cobleigh of Rush University Medical Center. Its a revolutionary way of treating cancer. Cobleigh helped conduct the key studies of the drug at the Chicago facility. The FDA approved the new treatment for about 20 percent of breast cancer patients with a form of the disease that is typically more aggressive and less responsive to hormone therapy. These patients have tumors that overproduce a protein known as HER-2. Breast cancer is the second most deadly form of cancer in U.S. women, and is expected to kill more than 39,000 Americans this year, according to the National Cancer Institute. Genentech said Friday that Kadcyla will cost $9,800 per month, compared to $4,500 per month for regular Herceptin. The company estimates a full course of Kadcyla, about nine months of medicine, will cost $94,000. FDA scientists said they approved the drug based on company studies showing Kadcyla delayed the progression of breast cancer by several months. Researchers reported last year that patients treated with the drug lived 9.6 months before death or the spread of their disease, compared with a little more than six months for patients treated with two other standard drugs, Tykerb and Xeloda.

19 million people) including over 4 million aged 65 and over totaling $318 billion. In addition, the Social Security system is already paying out more than it is taking in. According to the Social Security Board of Trustees annual report, the assets in the trust funds are expected to be exhausted in 2033. In December of 2012, there were over 56.7 million people receiving Social Security benefits estimated at $65 million and approximately 39.5 million of them were aged 65 years or older. Supplemental Security Income Statistics The Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program pays benefits to disabled adults and children who have limited income and resources. SSI benefits also are payable to people 65 and older without disabilities who meet the financial limits. In December 2010, there were 7.956 million people receiving SSI benefits and 2,041,490 of the beneficiaries were 65 years old or older. One year later, in 2011, there were over 156,000 more people receiving benefits and an of federal spending, these cuts would be permanently damaging and save 15 minutes of spending.

increase of 18,000 in the 65 + range. By December 2012, there were approximately 8.263 million people (up 150,000) receiving payments and an increase of 22,000 more people who were 65 years old or older. Looking at the figures, in just two short years, the number of people receiving benefits expanded by approximately 306,000 and the number of people 65+ increased by over 40,000. All told, in 2012, there were close to 2.1 million people aged 65 years or older 25 percent of the total number of recipientsreceiving SSI benefits totaling approximately $867 million. The majority of the recipients were female (54 percent), 16 percent were under age 18, 59 percent were aged 18 to 64 and 25 percent were aged 65 or older. Eighty-five percent of the recipients were eligible on the basis of a disability. More than half (57 percent) had no income other than their SSI payment. Thirty-four percent of SSI recipients also received Social Security benefits. Despite their disabilities, about 313,000 recipients (4.5 percent) were working in December 2011. In 2012, the highest federal

SSI payment is $698 a month for an individual and $1,048 a month for a couple. Tax credits Members of the sandwich generation caught between supporting elderly parents whose assets are nearly exhausted and adult children without jobs might find some relief come tax time. With the life expectancy on the rise, baby boomers are caring for their elderly parents at home or footing the bill for an assisted living or nursing home facility for a lengthy amount of time. In addition, the unemployment rate for young adults age 20-24 was 13.7 percent in December, forcing them to return home, never leave and rely on mom and dad for food, lodging and more. So, what does this mean for the sandwiched at tax time? Depending on the individual circumstances, a taxpayer may be able to claim both their parents and their children as dependents and file an exemption of $3,800 for each.

One in five international tourists visits one of Americas 398 national parks, research shows, and the parks are one-third of the top 25 domestic travel destinations. If the cuts go though, the memo shows national parks will notice fewer services, shorter hours and the placing of some sensitive areas completely offlimits to visitors when there are too few staff members to protect resources. The Park Service also writes that communities around parks that depend on tourism to fill their hotels and restaurants would suffer. Cape Cod National Seashore would close the Province Land Visitor Center, shutting out 260,000 people from May through October. Without monitors to watch over nesting birds, large sections of the Great Beach would close to keep eggs from being trampled.

visitors who use Grand Tetons Jenny Lake Visitor Center in Wyoming would be sent to other areas of the park. The parks nonprofit association would lose a quarter million dollars in sales. In Yosemite National Park, maintenance reductions mean the 9,000-foot-high Tioga Pass, the parks only entrance from the east, would open later in the year because there would be no gas for snow plows or staff to operate them. The town of Mammoth Lakes in the eastern Sierra depends on Yosemite traffic to fill its hotels and restaurants. Even programs important to the long-term environmental health of spectacular places are in jeopardy. In Yosemite, an ongoing project to remove invasive plants from the entire 761,000 acres would be cut. The end of guided ranger programs in the sequoia grove would leave 35,000 visitors unsupervised among the sensitive giants. And 3,500 volunteers who provide 40,000 hours on resource management duties would be eliminated for lack of anyone to run the program. Glacier National Park in Montana would delay the opening of the only road providing access to the entire park. When the Going-to-theSun Road has closed previously, it meant $1 million daily in lost revenue, the memo read.

The Clearasil Kid discouraging words

BY PASTOR DAN EATON I attended nine different schools in grades 1-12. My eighth-grade year was spent at Wahama High School which was a grades 7-12 school. It was a pretty good year for me. I was the leading scorer on the basketball team and won the Daughters of the American Revolution Citizenships Award but the thing I remember the most about that year was the hurt and humiliation of being called The Clearasil Kid. Like many teenagers, I was having some problems with acne. Each morning I would get in front of the mirror and use tinted Clearasil to try to cover up and hopefully eliminate the blemishes on my face. Perhaps most of the kids always noticed it and were kind enough not to say anything but not so for one of my critics. It was a nice spring day and a large group of us were outside during our lunch break. The bright sun felt so good on my face but apparently also revealed my poor attempt at hiding zits. Here comes the Clearasil Kid! yelled one of my classmates. My face started burning with embarrassment as the other students looked at me. I couldnt think of anything to say in retaliation, so I turned and walked back into the school hoping that we would soon move again and I could get a fresh start somewhere else with a better complexion and a better nickname. It may seem easier to run away from criticism and hurtful words or to not get mad, just get even. But Ive discovered in my journey though life it takes courage to overcome our critics and the sting of discouraging words, gossip and slander. Remember the old western song Home, home on the range where the deer and the antelope play. Where seldom is heard a discouraging word and the skies are not cloudy all day? Discouraging words and nonconstructive criticism can be very destructive. I am so blessed to be a pastor of a great church and know that we as pastors are supposed to be the spiritual leaders in our homes, churches and communities. We are the ones who through our actions and our encouraging people to fight the good fight of faith, demonstrate to others that with Gods help we can defeat the giants in our lives. However, the latest statistics reveal that over 1,700 ministers in the United States are quitting the ministry each month. The No. 1 reason? DISCOURAGEMENT. Sad to say the statistics also indicate that 50 percent of pastors report feeling so discouraged they would leave the ministry if they could. Discouraging words, complaints and criticism speak louder than compliments. You can receive 15 compliments and one complaint and the complaint will stick. When you hear criticism and look out to see empty pews or chairs, it can be difficult to recognize the positive impact youre hopefully making. Ive been pastoring for 22 years but Ive been alive a lot longer than that and I know that we as human beings can become so discouraged and so hurt that we just want to give up. The saying Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me is simply not true. Our words can build others up or tear them down. I hope you are blessed to have people in your life who encourage you. Ive been blessed to know people like that. In Acts 4:36 of the Bible we find that the apostles called Joseph, a Levite from Cyprus, Barnabas (which means Son of Encouragement). A few years ago, Bill and Pat Hardy

Booed soldier joins Ohio same-sex marriage effort

DAYTON (AP) The former business administrator of a southwest Ohio center for developmentally disabled adults has been charged with stealing more than $400,000 from the center. Montgomery Countys prosecutor says 46-year-old Douglas Carter of Gahanna was indicted Friday on 15 felony counts including aggravated theft, theft in office, forgery, money laundering and tampering with government records. Carter was business administrator of a state-operated center in Huber Heights from 2009 until March 2012. Authorities say Carter took Social Security, disability and pension money from an account for patients, using it for personal expenses including liposuction. There was no Gahanna telephone listing for Carter. An Ohio Inspector Generals investigation of the alleged theft has resulted in a report recommending procedures for the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities to safeguard residents funds from potential theft.

Pastor and Janie Eaton became a part of our church family at Delphos First Assembly of God. Bill was a retired minister who understood the power of encouragement. He became my friend and was such an encourager to me that I nicknamed him Barnabas Bill. He had the gift of making the people he was around feel good about themselves by his positive words. Last year, Bill gave me a plaque which I have hanging on the wall in my office. It has some wonderful words of encouragement engraved on it. Underneath the words of appreciation is engraved Barnabas. Bill died a few months later, but the encouraging words that he spoke and the encouraging letters he wrote continue to live on in the lives of the people he touched. Barnabas Bill fought the good fight, he finished the race and he is enjoying his eternal reward. We all have a purpose in life and the opportunity to accomplish our Godgiven destiny. If we leave this life knowing that we have done our best to leave a legacy of love and encouragement we can know it was a life well lived.

COLUMBUS (AP) A gay U.S. soldier who was booed during a Republican presidential debate in 2011 has joined the effort to overturn Ohios ban on samesex marriage. Leaders of FreedomOhio, a group seeking a reversal of the ban, said Friday that Stephen Snyder-Hill will help lead outreach efforts. Snyder-Hill had asked the GOP candidates in 2011 if they would reinstate the ban on openly gay troops. He was booed for the question, which he recorded while deployed in Iraq. FreedomOhio wants to overturn the 2004 state constitutional amendment that banned gay marriage. Supporters started collecting signatures last year to place their own constitutional amendment on the ballot either later this year or in 2014. The measure would not require churches and other religious institutions to perform or recognize a marriage.

Never doubt that a small, group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. Margaret Mead, American anthropologist

This and
by HELEN KAVERMAN
In days gone by when a girl joined the convent she would be headed for an occupation of teaching, nursing, cooking or housekeeping. Just a few years ago those were the careers of women outside the convent also. If she were a wife and mother her occupation included all of those. Times have changed for the nuns as well as others. When I look back a stay at home mom was pretty good, after all. We just didnt have as much money to spend. Vatican II really changed convent life. The sisters still spend much of their time in prayer, which is good for all of us. After Vatican II, during the sixties the sisters modified their habits with shorter veils that showed some hair and shorter skirts. As time went by most of their attire consisted of any nice dress or suit in the Franciscan Brown. A cross on a chain or a pin was also part of the outfit. Many sisters also put their veils aside. Before that they didnt have to worry about a bad hair day. With all the changes nuns were asked to make, some sisters suffered traumatically while others felt an exhilarating freeing of the spirit. The sisters were asked to become mature, valiant, concerned, up-dated, involved Women of the Church. Prayer still remains a very important part of their life-styles. Today, only a few nuns wear the Franciscan Brown, along with a more comfortable veil. Sister Edna Ricker and Sister MaryAnn Lucke wear this modified habit. The Franciscans are not behind the convent walls anymore. Today they can wear almost anything that is respectable. Naturally they would avoid clothing that was not respectable. The Sisters of St. Francis have taken up a variety of occupations. Just a few are teachers. Many live right among the people they work with, while helping them find a better way of life Sister Jackie (Jacqueline) Doepker is the Community Minister, formerly referred to as the Mother Superior. Sister Jackie said My doors are always open. Jackie lived in Kalida until age seven, when her family moved to Tiffin. She entered the convent in 1961, following graduation from high school. The Tiffin Franciscans govern themselves with a five member Franciscan Council. With Sister Jackie at the helm, the other members of council are Sr. Mary Kuhlman, Sr. Joanne Lammers, Sr. Edna Michel and Sr. Andrea Inkrott. All five members of the Council are from Putnam County. Sister Jackie is one of the Recker Book cousins. She lives in the Independent Living area of the Franciscan campus. Her 97 year old mother lives there also, in her own apartment. Jackies father died recently so Jackie is nearby to help her mother. Sister Jackie shares her apartment with Sister Paulette Schroeder. Sister Paulette recently returned from a three year tour of duty with the CPT (Christian Peacemaker Teams) on the West Bank in the Middle East. She lived in Hebron, Israel and worked in Palestine, with the Muslim people, sharing their stories and working toward reconciliation between Israel and Palestine. The Sisters have missions in several states in our United States, including West Virginia, N. Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, Florida and Texas, where they work with the poor children and adults.

One Year Ago The Delphos Columbian Squires collected $1,250 on Super Bowl weekend at St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church during the Squires Souper Bowl event. Chief Squire T. J. Hoersten doled out the money to the Rev. David Howell of the Delphos Ministerial Association, Becky Strayer of the Interfaith Thrift Shop and Dennis Hickey of the St. Vincent DePaul Society. 25 Years Ago 1988 Margaret Maggie Harter, 95, widow of the late Paul Harter Sr., founder of Harter & Son Funeral Home, died Feb. 21 at Delphos Memorial Home. Harter was receptionist and greeter for over 65 years, retiring in May 1987 at the age of 94, and had been involved in many aspects of the funeral home. Since her husbands death in 1968, the funeral home has been operated by her son Paul Jr., and her grandson, Douglas. St. Johns broke a school record in wiping out the defenseless Toledo Start Spartans 115-71 Saturday night at St. Johns gym. The old scoring record of 112 was set in the 1969-70 season. Mike Williams led the Jays with 26 points and 12 rebounds. Other starters plus substitute Steve Jettinghoff scored in double digits. Curt Mager hit a season-high 24, Doug Etgen 15, Duane Grothause 13, Jettinghoff 12 and Brian Heitz 10. Bruce VanMetre takes a 126-pin lead over his closest competitor into round 2 of the city champions singles bowling tournament at the Delphos Recreation Center. VanMetre made it look easy, thanks to an impressive six-game block of 1357. Even more impressive was VanMetres perfect 300 game. VanMetre was calm and cool throughout the 300 game, noted tournament director and proprietor of the Delphos lanes, Frank Cardone. 50 Years Ago 1963 A determined Jefferson Wildcat team roared from behind in the second half to stun top seeded Perry, 81-63, in the opening tilt of the Allen County tournament Friday night at Bluffton Founders Hall. The sparkplug of the Jefferson attack was junior Kenny Jackson, who rippled the nets for 29 big points. The Wildcats also dominated on the backboards where Gordie Vogt was a pillar of strength. Masonic Night was observed at the meeting of Delphos Chapter No. 26, Order of the Eastern Star Thursday night at the Masonic Temple. Following a regular business session, a program was held with Mrs. Ernest Beerman as soloist. Mrs. Richard Thompson served as pianist. Refreshments were served with Mrs. O. J. Truesdale serving as chairman of the committee. Cage fans from all over poured into St. Johns gym Friday night to see what was billed as one of the outstanding games in this part of Ohio. Over 2,000 fans saw the Blue Jays come from a 10-point deficit at half time to defeat a classy Shawnee Indians team, 80-65. Scoring honors for the Blue Jays were shared by Gene Klaus with 27, Grothous with 21 and Pothast with 18. 75 Years Ago 1938 In an effort to raise money for the missions, the members of the Theta Club of St. John the Evangelist unit of the Catholic Students Mission Crusade will sponsor an important social function at St. Johns auditorium Sunday evening. They will entertain with a Sport Dance. Cards and bunco will also be played. Chaperons are Mr. and Mrs. William E. Gladen, Mr. and Mrs. O. S. Schosker, Mr. and Mrs. Otto H. Stallkamp and Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Weger. The annual Father-Son Banquet was held Tuesday evening at the Methodist Church. A delicious dinner was served by the Ladies Aid and the program followed. Richard Redd, representing the sons, gave a short talk. Rev. Clarence Swearingen represented the fathers. The principal speakers were Attorney Jesse Beam and Mr. Foster, of Van Wert. A splendid address was enjoyed by the members of the Delphos Club at their weekly meeting at the Beckman Hotel Tuesday evening. The program was arranged in honor of Washingtons Birthday. Supt. E. W. Bell was the speaker on this occasion. O. J. Birkmeier, chairman of the program committee, was in charge of the program for the evening and introduced the speaker.

By JIM METCALFE jmetcalfe@ delphosherald.com DELPHOS Columbus Grove put together an excellent first half Friday night on The Stage of Jefferson Middle School. That was enough as the visiting Bulldogs grabbed a 53-35 Northwest Conference boys hardwood victory over the Wildcats. The Wildcats (4-17, 2-7 NWC) had two seniors: Zach Ricker (5 points, 2 boards, 1 steal) and Seth Wollenhaupt; play their final home games at The Stage. We gave up way too much penetration the first half, no matter what defense we used; (Jace) Darbyshire and (Collin) Grothaus got into the paint whenever they wanted. Its going to be a long night for your defense when that happens, Jefferson coach Marc Smith explained. That meant we had to rotate defensively and that put us out of position on rebounding, as well as looking to get into transition. We didnt get to the line at all the first half as a result and when we arent getting there, it hurts our offense. Jefferson scored first off the opening tap as junior Ross Thompson (a familiar doubledouble of 11 markers and 14 boards) hit a jumper form the left elbow 24 ticks into the game. However, Grove (17-4, 6-3 NWC) tied it on a putback by senior Brady Shafer (11 counters) 20 seconds later and another putback by Shafer at 6:30 to take the lead for good. That just started a strong first period for the Bulldogs, with Shafer adding another basket to lead the way. Grove shot a solid 9-of17 from the floor against the Jefferson zones, fueled by their dribble penetration that Coach Smith referred to. When senior Josh Tussing hit a 3-ball from the right wing with 1.1 ticks on the board, Groves lead was 20-8. The Grove attack slowed down some in the second period but not a whole lot. This time, 6-6 junior Will Vorhees (12 counters, 8 boards, 2 blocks) dropped in six counters to lead the way. The Wildcats struggled with some ballhandling committing five of their game-total of 13 turnovers and couldnt overcome that by only hitting 4-of-9 against the Grove 2-3 matchup zone. They tried to stay close but fell behind by as much as 20

yet to quite play through the contact. We expected them to play zone we prepared for it all week. Jefferson finished 14-of41 shooting, 2-of-15 downtown, for 34.1 percent; 5-of-10 singles (50%); with 30 boards (9 offensive) as junior Austin Jettinghoff added four (and 5 assists); and 10 fouls. They take on Allen East 7 p.m. Tuesday (single game) in the opening round of the Wapakoneta Division III sectional. We expected them to come out in something different the second half; Coach Smith knows what hes doing and he was looking to try something different, Stechschulte added. You expect that when you score 36 points in a half. Just for us, Id like to see us put together that 4-quarter game, which we have yet to do. In junior varsity action, Grove closed out the season with a 35-22 victory, outscoring Jefferson (4-16, 0-9) 13-0 in the fourth period. Freshman Logan Diller led the victors with 11, while junior Tyler Rice dropped in 14 (4 treys) for the Wildcats.

By BOB WEBER The Delphos Herald btzweber@bright.net HAVILAND Friday night saw two teams regular seasons come to an end as the Ottoville Big Green traveled northwest to take on the Raiders of Wayne Trace in a non-league boys basketball contest. The game was close throughout; however, the Raiders got some clutch foul shooting down the stretch and seven of junior Colby Spieces 12 points in the fourth quarter to seal the win over the Big Green 55-50. Friday night marked the final time four seniors of the Raiders performed in front of the hometown faithful. Grady Gudakunst, Dalton Sinn, Nick McClain and Ryan Kortokrax were escorted to mid-court by their parents and given a nice picture frame to remember their careers and teammates that theyve been a part of over the past four years. The first half was a very closely-played half of basketball with both teams on occasion getting a 3-4 point lead but to see the other team fight right back to tie or take the lead themselves. Both used the hot shooting of one player to lead them in scoring throughout the half. Sophomore Tyler Roby, as hes done all year, came off the Big Green bench and drilled three 3-pointers to keep his squad close throughout the half. On the other side, Sinn played a solid 16 minutes of ball and led the Raiders with 12 (10 in second quarter) of his teams 28 first-half points. As both teams headed to the locker room, the Raiders held a narrow 28-26 lead. The third quarter saw both teams score 13 points each. Neither could break away from the other as only one turnover was committed in the entire quarter by both teams. After three quarters of play, the Raiders held to their 2-point advantage, 41-39. As has been the case for the Big Green in several games this year, they found themselves trailing going into the final quarter and had to foul to get the ball back. The Raiders were up to the challenge as they went to the char-

36-16 on a triple by senior Collin Grothaus at 1:02 but when freshman Trey Smith (8 points) slice his way to the hoop with 47 ticks on the board, the halftime score was 36-18. Jefferson switched out of its zone into man-to-man to start the second half and that seemed to do the trick, at least throwing the Bulldogs out of rhythm. The Wildcats sliced their deficit to 14 markers twice the second time on a Thompson layin at 1:21 but when Grothaus swished a 3-pointer just inside the halfcourt line as time expired, Grove led 45-28. Thats the story of our season: we have a half like tonight or even a quarter where we look like we can do some damage in the tournament, then we struggle, Grove coach Ryan Stechschulte noted. Its not the same pattern, either; it can be the first half we play well, like tonight, but then it might be the second half we play well. I felt we got the same good shots the second half we did the first but

couldnt make them. The closest the Wildcats could get from then on was the 17-point barrier and the largest Grove lead was 21 a pair of times. In sum, Grove canned 23-of56 from the floor, 5-of-13 beyond the arc, for 41.4 percent; 2-of-4 free throws (50%); secured 34 boards, 14 offensive, as senior Derek Rieman had 11 (to go with 4 assists and 2 blocks); and added a mere four errors and 11 fouls. The Bulldogs are off until 6:15 p.m. Friday as they will take on the McComb/PandoraGilboa winner at the Division IV Ottawa-Glandorf sectional. We went man and we were better the second half but still gave up too much penetration; we were fortunate that Grove missed some shots, Smith added. We also rebounded better the second half. The game was officiated where it was clear not many fouls were going to be called and thats fine; you have to adjust to that but we arent physically strong enough

Lancers bomb out Mustangs By NICK JOHNSON DHI Correspondent sports@timesbulletin. com MIDDLE POINT The Lincolnview Lancers welcomed the Allen East Mustangs to Lincolnview High School on Friday night for Northwest Conference boys basketball action. The Lancers used hot 3-point shooting to jump out to an early lead and never looked back en route to a 70-45 victory. In the first half, it seemed like the Lancers couldnt miss from behind the arc. Lincolnview got a 3-point play from Justis Dowdy to take an early 3-1 lead. The Mustangs countered quickly with baskets from Tanner Richardson and Marcos Qunitero to take the lead 5-3. The Lancers then knocked down four 3-pointers: two from Kyle Williams, one from Kade Carey and the final one from Mark Evans; to make the first-period score 19-8, Lancers. Allen East got two foul shots from Matt Shuey to cut the Lincolnview lead to 19-10 at the end of the first quarter. In the second period, the Lancers got 3-pointers from Evans and Williams and a layup from Carey for a 27-10 lead. The Mustangs got four straight points from Clay Plaugher to chip away at the deficit but Carey knocked down another 3-pointer and Evans added two more as the Lancers built the lead to 40-19 in the second stanza.

OHIO DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES DIVISION OF WILDLIFE Fish Ohio Report Umbrella Rig use in the state of Ohio Bass tournament anglers in Alabama, Kentucky and other states have recently won tournaments using an umbrellastyle fishing rig. Originally used as a saltwater trolling bait for striped bass and bluefish on the east coast, the rig employs an umbrella-shaped frame with a central head or attachment point from which five or more wires originate. A single-hook swimbait or similar lure is normally attached to the end of each wire with the resulting lure resembling a school of baitfish. The tournament success has generated many questions from anglers about the legality of the umbrella rigs use in Ohio. Regulations applicable to the umbrella rig are found in the definition of angling in Ohio Administrative Code 1501:31-1-02: (C) Angling means fishing with not more than two hand lines, not more than two units of rod and line, or a combination of not more than one hand line and one rod and line, either in hand or under control at any time while fishing. The hand line or rod and line shall have attached to it not more than three baited hooks, or not more than three artificial fly rod lures, or one artificial bait casting lure equipped with not more than three sets of three hooks each. This regulatory definition limits the number of hooks on an umbrella rig to three. These hooks could be single or treble hooks. Umbrella rig options that would be considered legal in Ohio include: Rig with only three wires that have attached to the end of each wire a single bait with a hook, for a total of three that contain hooks; Rig with five or more wires of which not more than three wires contain a single bait with a hook, for a total of three baits that have hooks; and the remaining wires containing decoy/dummy baits without hooks, spinner blades or other decoy material. Anglers with further questions about the use of the umbrella rig should contact their local District Office Fish Management personnel. Ice fishing flourishes at Grand Lake St. Marys CELINA The fish are actively biting at Grand Lake St. Marys in western Ohio, according to the ODNR. We are pleased to see anglers enjoying success in the waters of Grand Lake St. Marys, said ODNR Director James Zehringer. After a decade of stocking the lake, the fish are thriving and the populations continue to grow. We want to encourage everyone to enjoy the great fishing happening at Grand Lake St. Marys. The fish, a mix of walleye and/ or saugeye, have been stocked by the ODNR Division of Wildlife, which stocked walleye in Grand Lake St. Marys from 1999 until 2008. In 2009-10, the DOW stocked saugeye. The fish at Grand Lake St. Marys are mostly being caught near the mouth of Coldwater Creek. This area was recently dredged, making it deeper, and food is plentiful, which also attracts fish to that area. People interested in ice fishing are encouraged to be extremely careful on the ice. Featured Fish: Walleye The walleye (other names: Pickerel, yellow pike, walleyed pike, white salmon) is the largest of nearly 250 species in the family Percidae found in North America. Walleye (Sander vitreus) are a large predatory sport fish that have many sharp teeth in their mouth. The first dorsal fin has no spots and the membrane between the spines is opaque not clear like a sauger. Also, there is a large dark blotch at the rear base of the first dorsal fin. The body color of a walleye is typically olive, gray or silver color compared to the definite bronze or brown of a sauger. Walleye have a series of dark saddles over their back which can be seen on the upper part of their sides as

thin vertical bars. Walleye also have large bright white areas at the edge of the lower part of their tail and anal fins. Walleye prefer clear to slightly turbid waters of large lakes and rivers, usually occurring in greatest abundance over reefs, shoals of gravel, bedrock and other firm bottoms. Historically, walleye were abundant in Lake Erie, the Ohio River and many of their larger tributaries. They are still abundant in Lake Erie and

Titans survive vs. Cougs By BRIAN BASSETT DHI Correspondent sports@timesbulletin. com VAN WERT - When hosting Division III No. 6 OttawaGlandorf Friday evening at the Cougars Den, Van Wert elected to slow the tempo way down. The plan worked for a majority of the game but the Titans converted 4-of-4 from the field and 2-of-2 from the line in the fourth quarter to pull away for a 44-28 win. The Cougars (11-11, 3-6) came out eating plenty of clock in their offensive sets to try to slow the game down. O-G (19-3, 7-2) only took 31 shots on the night and Van Wert put up 34. Van Wert coach Dave Froelich agreed that the style is atypical of the Cougars but with 1:13 to play in the third quarter, Van Wert trailed by only two. The Cougars shot 11-of-33 from the field (33 percent) and only 1-of-7 from 3-point range. The glaring stat was that senior forward A.J. Smith, Van Werts top scorer who averages 15.4 points per game, scored only one point on the night, on 0-of-6 shooting. Sophomore guard Connor Holliday, who had a teamhigh 11 points, picked up some of the slack, scoring seven first-half points for Van Wert to keep the Cougars close. In that same span, sophomore forward Noah Bramlage had five points to top O-G, which held a 20-19 lead that the break. Bramlage topped the Titans with 10 points and eight rebounds. Bramlages

most important basket of the game came with time expiring in the third period, when he nailed a three to extend a 2-point O-G lead to five after three quarters. The Titans took advantage by not missing a shot in the final frame. Meanwhile, Van Wert went 1-of-7 from the floor and 0-of-2 from the foul line. The Titans shot 15-of-31 from the field (48%) including a 6-of-9 (67%) clip from long range. Bramlage was the only Titan in double figures, though eight O-G players scored. Senior guard Caleb Siefker and senior forward Michael Rosebrock each added eight. Senior guard T.J. Metzger added five points while battling foul trouble much of the night.

can be found upstream to the first dam in several of the larger tributaries to the lake. They are also still found in the Ohio River but are far outnumbered by the sauger. The further up-stream toward Pittsburgh, Penn., you go, the more common of a catch walleye become. Walleye are also stocked in several of Ohios reservoirs. Adult size is typically 14-22 inches and can reach 36 inches; walleye usually weigh 2-4 pounds but can reach 16 pounds. Walleye spawn throughout the month of April when water temperatures are between 40-55 F. Walleye deposit their eggs in the riffle areas of tributary streams or over gravel to boulder-sized rocks in reef areas of Lake Erie. The eggs hatch in about 10 days. Females can lay as many as 400,000 eggs. Young walleye feed on zooplankton and insect larvae for several months before shifting over to a diet of small fish. No parental care is given by the adults. Typical foods are gizzard shad and other small fishes. Bald Eagles begin nesting season Its February and Valentines Day is come and gone. That means love is in the air for Ohios growing population of bald eagles, which have been busy building their nests in preparation for their laying of eggs. The American bald eagle is one of Ohios great modern-day wildlife-management success stories. Near local extinction from Ohio in 1979 when only four breeding pairs of bald eagles were known to exist in-state, 2012 saw a record 194 breeding pairs that successfully produced a total of 254 eaglets. Once a bald eagle nest has become active with egg incubation, a process that typically begins here in February, it takes approximately 35 days for the eggs to hatch. After the eaglets hatch, they need 2 1/2-3 months before taking their first flight (a process known as fledging) from the nest. Though bald eagles have seemingly adapted well to the presence of humans, biologists remain concerned about potential human disruptions of the nesting and rearing process. As a result, some public access may temporarily be limited in areas close to eagle nesting sites. Share your tax refund Tax filing season is underway and that means most taxpayers will expect to receive an income tax refund. Ohioans are encouraged to designate a portion of their refund through a special state income tax checkoff to benefit natural areas and wildlife species that are threatened and endangered. Donations of all or a portion of your state income tax may be so designated on Line 25 of Form IT 1040, Line 18 of Form IT 1040 EZ, or Line 13-E of the Ohio Telefile income tax worksheet. Taxpayers who are not receiving a refund this year may contribute directly to the support of the natural areas and wildlife endangered species funds by sending their check to: ODNR Division of Natural Areas Fund, 2045 Morse Road, Building C, Columbus, OH 43229; or ODNR Wildlife Diversity Fund, 2045 Morse Road, Building G, Columbus, OH 43229 In addition to tax checkoff programs, there are a number of ways you can support ODNR. More information on these opportunities can be found here: www.

ohiodnr.com. Open house events scheduled for Mad River Designation COLUMBUS The ODNR) will host two open house events at Wittenberg University regarding the proposed designation of the Mad River in Clark County as a recreational river under the Ohio Scenic Rivers Program. These will be held from 7-8:30 p.m. on Thursday and 10-11:30 a.m. March 2. Both meetings will be held in Room 105A, Shouvlin Hall, located at 737 N. Fountain Ave., Springfield. Rivers are classified according to the outstanding qualities a stream possesses. The Scenic Rivers Act provides three categories for river classification: wild, scenic and recreational. Criteria examined include the streams length, adjacent forest cover, biological characteristics, water quality, present use and natural conditions. Scenic river designation is a cooperative venture among state and local government, citizen groups and local communities within a watershed. The designation process depends ultimately upon support and protection authority of local governments and citizens. All interested parties, including state and local officials, community groups and concerned citizens, meet to discuss the scenic rivers program and to encourage local support for the protection of the river as a natural resource. These events will provide information about the designation process as well as provide area residents an opportunity to submit written comments, ask questions and discuss the river with representatives from ODNR and other interested organizations. Ohio awarded $1 million for Wetland Preservation at Lake Erie Public Access Site PERRY TOWNSHIP Public access to Ohios 312-mile Lake Erie coast will be expanded because of a $1 million grant that will help Lake Metroparks acquire 209 additional acres as part of the Lake Erie Bluffs preservation site. The ODNR, in partnership with Lake Metroparks and the Western Reserve Land Conservancy, was awarded the funding from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services 2013 National Coastal Wetlands Conservation Grants Program. The land to be acquired includes 110 acres of high-quality coastal wetland habitat. Coastal wetlands serve as some of natures most productive fish and wildlife habitats

while providing improved water quality and recreational opportunities, said ODNR Director James Zehringer. These grants will help our partners implement high-quality projects that support conservation and outdoor recreation. Ohios grant is one of 24 projects in 13 states to receive a share of the 2013 wetlands funding. The funding will be matched with local dollars to acquire, restore or enhance coastal wetlands and adjacent uplands, thereby providing long-term conservation benefits to fish, wildlife and their habitats. The Bluffs site targeted for acquisition includes forested wetlands, high-quality vernal pools and areas of hummock-hollow wetlands. These areas provide habitats for more than 15 statelisted rare plant and animal species, including the yellowbellied sapsucker, an Ohio species of concern, and the spotted turtle, an Ohio threatened species. The site also has 440-feet of Lake Erie shore and habitat suitable for the federally endangered Indiana bat. This latest proposed acquisition is part of a larger conservation initiative by Lake Metroparks and other partners to permanently preserve approximately 600 acres of undeveloped property along a nearly 2-mile stretch of Lake Erie shore. Through state, local and nonprofit partnership efforts, more than $5.48 million in grants have been secured for acquisition and improvements. The latest grant will be administered by the ODNR Office of Coastal Management, with a total of $3 million in local match provided by the Western Reserve Land Conservancy and Lake Metroparks, for a total project cost of $4 million. Once the land transaction is final, Lake Metroparks will own the Bluffs site and manage it as a nature preserve and public park open for passive recreational use and educational pursuits. The Western Reserve Land Conservancy will hold a permanent conservation easement to the property. Ohio Waterways Safety Council to hold meeting COLUMBUS The ODNR will host the Ohio Waterways Safety Council for their regular quarterly meeting at 10 a.m. March 6 at 2045 Morse Road, Building A-2, Columbus, OH 43229. This meeting is open to the public. The Council is a 5-member citizen advisory council which provides input on boating issues to the Division of Watercraft. People interested in attending the meeting should contact Janet Turner at 614-265-6476.

hardwood floors and oriental rugs. Suggestions Appreciated Dear Suggestions: It is perfectly OK to ask your guests to remove their shoes at the door, especially if you provide comfy little slippers for them to wear. You also should place doormats both inside and outside your front door so guests can wipe their feet. However, if someone refuses to take off his or her shoes, please welcome them into your home regardless. Hardwood floors can be cleaned, and oriental rugs can be rolled up and put aside. Dear Annie: This is in response to Midwest Cook, who cant believe that children are truly picky eaters. She says the fault lies with permissive parents. My husband and I followed a similar tactic for years with our four children. They either ate what we cooked, or they went without. The result was often bitter frustration for everyone involved, as well as utter shock on the part of those not familiar with our methods. In spite of that, two of our now-adult children are still genuinely picky eaters. Please dont assume parents arent doing their jobs. Frustrated Cook Dear Frustrated: You are right that some kids never outgrow their aversion to certain foods, but we hope parents will encourage more adventurous eating habits.

The Herald 9

Tomorrows Horoscope
By Bernice Bede Osol
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 2013 Conditions in general in the year ahead are likely to be much easier than usual for you. Just because things begin to run smoother, dont use it as an excuse to coast. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Dont make any grand, generous gestures if youre expecting repayment down the line. The response youll later get from the recipients will be anything but what you expect. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -Its always constructive to say nice things about our friends, but think twice about flattering someone who doesnt deserve it. Such behavior would make you look like a phony. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Unless your ambitions are in harmony with your will to work, it isnt likely that you will expend the effort needed to achieve your objectives. Just wishing for something wont cut it. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Its best not to pretend to be knowledgeable about something that you have little experience with. If you do, someone might test your words and find them wanting. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -The world doesnt owe you any free rides, especially concerning your financial or commercial dealings. If you expect to receive something you dont deserve, youre just kidding yourself. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Certain clandestine romantic adventures could be unusually appealing to you. Dont involve yourself in something from which youll have trouble extricating yourself. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -Usually, youre rather disciplined and feel a need to be industrious and productive at all times. Today, however, these urges might not be in play. Enjoy the break. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -Dont let it be said of you that youre only nice to those who can help you. When you try to manipulate people, it usually backfires. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- If you make it a point to toot your own horn in front of others, chances are all that will come out is a bunch of sour notes. Being modest will get you much better attention. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Try not to be cocky if you catch on to something far quicker than anybody else. If later you should encounter someone who is smarter than you, youll look foolish. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- When drawn into a joint endeavor that requires a cash outlay, make certain everyone antes up equally. Dont put up if no one else does. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Be careful about basing your promises on expediency rather than sincerity. It is far better to say no up front rather than risk disappointing someone depending on you later. MONDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 2013 Although some past lessons might have been very painful, you will make sure in the year ahead that you begin to profit from them. Doing so will put you miles ahead of your colleagues. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Unless you plan very carefully, you may have little to show for your effort, regardless of how hard you work. You wouldnt plan to build a bridge without a blueprint, would you? ARIES (March 21-April 19) -Youre likely to get an opportunity to show someone important that youre willing to stand behind him or her even if others arent. Dont miss this boat. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Unless you are extremely prudent, its not likely to be one of your better days for buying or selling anything, mostly because youll be indifferent to the outcome. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- If you hope to win the confidence and respect of your friends, youll need to have the courage to speak out for the things you believe in. However, do so in a respectful manner. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Be careful about usurping an associates ideas. Chances are you could easily miss the most important point and lose the message in the translation. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- There is a strong chance that something that looks good on paper might not work too well in reality. Before getting too deeply involved, study the matter much more carefully. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -Youll encounter far less opposition if you do what needs to be done without calling any attention to yourself. Its OK to aim high, but do so behind closed doors or in the shadows. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -If an old, trusted friend tells you something in confidence that he or she doesnt want revealed to others, make sure this persons trust is justified -- abide by his or her wishes. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Falling short of your mark might be traceable to your methods and not to the nature of the project itself. Working hard is part of the solution, but you must be smart as well. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Wishful thinking will lead to repeating an old mistake, even if you know better. Its foolish to believe that doing the same thing could lead to a totally different conclusion. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Certain things you should be taking care of personally you might unwisely delegate to others. Unfortunately, no matter how hard they try, their performance wont be up to your standards. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- When negotiating an important agreement, know what youre getting into and be mindful of the small details, especially if you know that youll be held to exacting terms.
