setting off many inquiries at collection time. OFBF is

hoping to give a little relief to Ohio farmers.
Farm Bureau used as an example Ohios most
prominent soil type (Miami silt loam), which the
organization projects cropland valuations will be
26-percent lower and woodland valuations will be 54percent lower than previously projected. Part of the
CAUV formula is based on soil type, which reflects
the lands productive capacity. There are more than
3,500 soil types in Ohio.
Farm Bureau cautioned, These projected reductions apply only to the valuation and not to the overall
tax amount, which is also affected by local millage
rates and other factors. While tax bills will likely be
higher, this formula change will moderate the amount
of increase.
Farm Bureau has already begun discussions on
further adjustments to the CAUV formula with the tax
department and its Agricultural Advisory Committee.
Among those options are making the formula
better reflect the value of land for farming and be
less affected by non-farm factors. The OFBF is also

raising concerns with tax officials about minimum

values, treatment of conservation lands and woodlands and the current method of factoring an average
millage rate into values, which negatively affects
the most vulnerable farmland in areas threatened by
development.
OFBF thanked Tax Commissioner Joe Testa and
his staff for being responsive to the needs of Ohios
farm community.
A Farm Bureau statement explained that The
recommendations forwarded by Farm Bureau came
following thousands of hours of work by members
and staff who conducted research and held meetings
with tax experts, state and local tax officials, accountants, attorneys, appraisers, farmers, landowners and
other stakeholders. Farm Bureaus goal was to identify adjustments to the formula that provide relief to
landowners and protect the integrity of the program.
Ohio Farm Bureau stated that members will
receive more detailed information through the organizations publications and e-letters.

Bloody Sunday 50th

anniversary: Thousands
crowd Selma bridge
SELMA, Ala. (AP) Thousands of people crowded
an Alabama bridge on Sunday, many jammed shoulder
to shoulder, many unable to move, to commemorate a
bloody confrontation 50 years ago between police and
peaceful protesters that helped bring about the 1965
Voting Rights Act.
A day after President Barack Obama had walked atop
the Edmund Pettus Bridge, police said at least 15,000 to
20,000 people had joined the crush on and around the
small bridge. Many came from around the country for
several events commemorating the landmark moment.
William Baldwin, 69, of Montgomery, brought his two
grandsons, ages 11 and 15, to the bridge Sunday so they
could grasp the importance of the historic march he took
part in a half century earlier.
Theyre going to take this struggle on and we have to
understand the price that was paid for them to have what
they have now, Baldwin said. It wasnt granted to them,
it was earned by blood, sweat and tears.
Some sang hymns and others held signs, such as
Black lives matter, all lives matter.
On March 7, 1965, police beat and tear-gassed marchers at the foot of the bridge in Selma in a spasm of
violence that shocked the nation. The attack help build
momentum for passage of the Voting Rights Act later
that year.
Attorney General Eric Holder, speaking at Brown
Chapel AME Church Sunday, drew parallels, without
being explicit, between the events of 1965 and today. He
noted that the Bloody Sunday march was sparked by
the murder of activist Jimmie Lee Jackson, an unarmed,
young black man.
An unarmed, young black man, he repeated.
Annie Pearl Avery, 71, recalled being arrested on
Bloody Sunday as she tried to get a nurse to the bridge.
She said it was one of many times she was arrested during
the freedom rides of the 1960s.

Music & Memories with Pat Boone

Disorder linked to recurrent

aggressive impulses
BY STEPHANIE GROVES
DHI Media Staff Writer
sgroves@delphosherald.com
Have you ever stopped at an intersection,
cautiously checked to the right and left for
traffic before proceeding, only to be surprised by a driver rolling through a stop sign
completely oblivious to the fact they almost
clipped the front end of your vehicle? Did you
get a little irritated or say a few choice words
in the name of safety and then proceed to your
destination forgetting about the incident?
In milliseconds, some people who experience the same scenario might become so
enraged they have an aggressive outburst due
to their inability to regulate their emotions.
The disorder is called Intermittent Explosive
Disorder (IED) and includes outbursts of
aggressive driving, including speeding, frequent and unnecessary lane changes, tailgating
and running red or yellow lights while behind
the wheel; in other words, road rage.
According to Psychology Today, IED falls
in the category of Impulse-Control Disorders
and is characterized by failure to resist re-current aggressive impulses, resulting in serious
assaults or property destruction. Behaviors
include threatening to or actually hurting
another person and purposefully breaking or
damaging an object of value.
Heather Koontz, MSW, LISW-S, of The
Ohio State University Lima Campus said of
those people diagnosed with IED), a little over
50-percent have experienced road rage.
These people do not premeditate their
reactions in these types of situations and there
are environmental factors that influence their
behaviors, she said. Some are socialized in
some way to have hyper-vigilant episodes and
others act out to control their environment.

They are unaware of the behaviors and only

know they feel fear.
Koontz said these behaviors start as early
as 6 and individuals who have a history of
physical and/or emotional trauma are at a high
risk for the disorder.
There are also genetic factors involved.
Weve looked at first-degree relatives (parents) with IED, which increases a childs risk
for the disorder, Koontz said. There have
also been twin studies performed where twins
were separated at birth and found to have the
same level of aggression.
Koontz said there are also physiological
implications where an individual may lack
or have a lower level of serotonin and/or
dopamine.
According to Psychology Today, dopamine is a neurotransmitter that helps control
the brains reward and pleasure centers. It
also helps regulate movement and emotional responses and enables people not only
to see rewards, but to take action to move
toward them. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that is synthesized, stored and released
by specific neurons in the brain. Natural
serotonin is involved in the regulation of
several processes within the brain, including depression, mood, emotions, aggression, sleep, appetite, anxiety, memory and
perceptions and regulates the processes
through pathways that connect to varying
brain regions.
Typically, the individual has had other
patterns of aggressiveness, she said.
Unfortunately by the time many seek
anger-management help, its court-ordered
due to a domestic violence charge and/or

toddler found alive 14 hours

after car crash in Utah river
SPANISH FORK, Utah (AP)
An 18-month-old girl survived a car
crash in a frigid Utah river after being
strapped in a car seat upside-down for
some 14 hours before being found by a
fisherman, officers said.
The condition of Lily Groesbeck was
upgraded from critical to stable but critical condition at a Salt Lake City hospital, but her 25-year-old mother, Lynn
Groesbeck of Springville, was found
dead in the car, police said Sunday.
She is doing remarkably well considering the circumstance. The doctors have
been hopeful so far, the mothers sister,
Jill Sanderson, told KSL-TV of Salt Lake
City on Sunday. We would like to express
our appreciation to the Spanish Fork rescue
team for saving the babys life.
The fisherman discovered the car on
its top about 12:30 p.m. Saturday in the
Spanish Fork River in Spanish Fork,

police Lt. Matt Johnson said.

Investigators believe the wreck
occurred about 10:30 p.m. Friday when a
resident near the accident scene reported
hearing a noise, Johnson said. The resident was unable to find anything unusual
when checking the area near Provo.
The girl was found hanging upside
down above the river that flowed through
the car, and the water never reached high
enough to touch her, Johnson told the
Deseret News newspaper. Her mother
was found in the drivers seat.
The car struck a cement barrier on
the bridge and careened into the river,
investigators said. It landed under the
bridge and was difficult to see from the
road. Police are unsure why the car left
the road, and the Utah Highway Patrol
is assisting in the accident investigation.

Ottawa womans grandson lands cover of Time

BY ANNE COBURN-GRIFFIS
DHI Media Editor
agriffis@putnamsentinel.com

Mary Limpach is holding Time featuring a photo of her grandson. (Submitted photo)

OTTAWA If you picked up the

February special health double-issue of
Americas iconic magazine Time, you
likely admired the cherubic face on the
cover. What you probably didnt know is
that you were seeing a familiar face, two
generations removed.
The baby on that cover is Apollo Alvarez,
the grandson of Ottawas Mary Limpach.
The photo was selected from New York photographer Evan Kafkas portfolio to front
the magazines feature story This Baby
Could Live to be 142 Years Old: Dispatches
from the Frontiers of Longevity. From the
original photo shoot five years ago, that
photo has had quite a journey.
We lived in Yonkers when my son was
just a baby. We had access to the city,
said Apollos mother, Alli. Its interesting
because for an adult to get an agent for print
work is very tough. But for children, its a
pretty open door. At that time, a part of me
said I never got this chance. Its also a way
to make a little bit of money for my son. Its
not a huge amount but if you book a job,
they pay you rather well.
She took Apollo to what is referred to as a
go see often a long line of tired babies

and caregivers where a quick photo is

taken and greetings are exchanged. There
is no payout at this time. That only happens
if the subject is booked for a job. Alvarez
said she did this for about a year. Along the
way, her son booked a few things, including an advertisement for retailer Babies R
Us. In the case of Kafka, who she said is
well-known in the photography world for
portraits, images of Apollo became part of
the photographers portfolio. The February
cover photo was actually taken for another
Time magazine cover but didnt make it.
They always double-book because
babies get cranky, said Alvarez. Twins

have another baby. Its hard for them.
But that job came full circle. Kafka
emailed Alvarez to OK use of the photo
and an agent negotiated the rate. And
Apollo himself, now 6 years old, was unaffected by the entire process. His mother
said that she tried to take a photo of him
next to the magazine at a newsstand and
the answer was no.
When he was talking, it became really clear that he didnt want to do it, she
laughed. To this day he doesnt like to
get photographed, which is funny because
my husband is a photographer. He made it
pretty clear that he wanted to stop and we
stopped.

States public universities owe $6.5B in debt

DAYTON (AP) Ohios 14 public universities owe
$6.5 billion for debt mostly created by what some education experts have called unnecessary campus building
booms.
College officials say they have been constructing
necessary facilities, but some higher education experts
say universities have gone on unnecessary spending
sprees to lure students to their campuses, the Dayton
Daily News reported.
An official with Moodys Investors Service says most
public universities across the country have doubled
their debt in the last decade, partly driven by a highly
competitive environment.
Frankly, theres a risk from not borrowing and
investing in facilities because then you can lose competitiveness and enrollment, said senior vice president
Susan Fitzgerald. The credit rating agency rates the risk
of university bond issues.
But Fitzgerald says the big increase in debt isnt too
much concern to Moodys as revenues and enrollments
have grown with debts.
From our perspective, debt levels remain manageable for most universities, Fitzgerald said.
Some debt-financed college projects in the state
include an $80 million football stadium at the University
of Cincinnati and a $1.1 billion medical center expansion at Ohio State University. The University of Akron,
which is $487 million in debt, has constructed 24 new
buildings and carried out 20 additions or renovations of
existing buildings since the early 2000s.
We know that weve got a substantial debt load
that we need to address over the coming years, said
Nathan Mortimer, associate chief financial officer for
University of Akron.
University of Cincinnati leaders say they plan to hold
the line on the $1.1 billion they owe and pay down 48
percent of the outstanding debt over the next 10 years.
Ohio State officials dont have plans to borrow or
build anytime soon.
Ohio University economist Richard Vedder says students and their families likely are picking up the tab for

extra amenities offered by universities.

Anytime you borrow money and spend that money,
youre using resources, and youre using dollars for
that purpose, said Vedder, who is also director for The
Center for College Affordability and Productivity.
The state isnt increasing its subsidies to finance all
of this, he said. I think universities are adding to their
annual costs and someone is paying for it.
Vedder says Ohio should consider putting caps on
what colleges can borrow, like some other states have
done. He says that might slow down the competition
among campuses.

High-fashion stylist
turns focus to all
women with QVC line
COLUMBUS (AP)
As Lori Goldstein
was beginning her
career in the late 1970s,
stylists werent a staple
of the fashion industry, home shopping networks didnt exist and
a naked and pregnant
Demi Moore had yet to
bare her belly at checkout counters everywhere from the cover
of Vanity Fair.
But for Goldstein
decades later: Check,
check and check.
She spent years as
a stylist determining
just the right look for
subjects of award-winning ad campaigns,
chart-topping music
videos and iconic magazine covers including
Moores.
Then the Ohio native
sought a change.
Goldstein focused
on offering style to the
masses with an original line on home shopping network QVC and
last week started a new
one-hour weekly show.
There was a whole
world out there that
wasnt privy to the
world that I was in,
Goldstein, who continues to work as a stylist
and fashion editor-atlarge for Elle magazine, said in a phone
interview. I knew that
I somehow wanted to
tie those two worlds
together.
Dubbed LOGO by
Lori Goldstein, the
brand is less about couture and more about
creativity.
Launched in 2009,
it emphasizes layering,
including longer tops
with asymmetrical cuts
as well as leggings of
varying length. LOGO
and its line extensions,
including a jewelry
collection and a line
for young girls, bring
a variety of colors and
textures.
With her brand,
Goldstein hoped to
be an authentic fashion guide and give
all women regardless of their proximity to a fashion capital
license to express
themselves
through
flattering
clothes.
Goldstein remembered
people complimenting
her outfits while growing up in Ohio, but saying they could never
pull off her style.
So many women are
afraid to wear things
because they dont
understand fashion the
way I do, or theyre
scared to, Goldstein
said.
QVC viewer and
LOGO shopper Deborah

Bonfanti found theres

no cookie-cutter way
of wearing Goldsteins
clothes.
It crosses generations,
Bonfanti,
53, said. Lori gives
women my age permission to play.
Goldstein, 58, was
born in Columbus and
moved to Cincinnati
when she was 8. She
worked for retailer Fred
Segal after moving to
Los Angeles when she
was 18, then moved to
New York City in the
late 1970s.
I cant imagine ever
not coming from the
Midwest, she said.
There is that normalcy and also that understanding of this great
picture of America.
Over
35
years
Goldstein built her
fashion career in New
York on her knack for
pairing garments and
accessories for photo
shoots and videos,
becoming one of the
first stylists in the fashion industry.
Goldstein worked
with
photographer
Annie Leibovitz in
the 1980s on projects
including
American
Express award-winning Portraits campaign and numerous
Vanity Fair covers.
She went on to work
on dozens of Italian
Vogue
covers
and
served in editor roles
for that and other fashion publications. Shes
styled numerous artists
and actors, including
Madonna in her 1984
Take a Bow music
video.
Fellow QVC designer Isaac Mizrahi calls
Goldsteins brand democratic and inclusive
and says customers
gravitate to her.
Its not just a connection,
he
said.
Theres a kind of
fire. Theres a passion
between the ladies and
their Lori.
Goldstein,
who
recently bought a house
in Chester County,
Pennsylvania,
and
returns to Ohio occasionally to visit family, is someone fashion hopefuls in the
Midwest can look up
to, said Gargi Bhaduri,
assistant professor at
Kent State Universitys
fashion school.
People like Lori
can, of course, set
examples as to how, if
you just have the fashion, and you know what
you want to do, you can
just go out and make
your mark, Bhaduri
said.

Chappie tops slow weekend,

Unfinished Business tanks
LOS ANGELES (AP) Neither
a hyper-intelligent robot nor Vince
Vaughn could save the box office
this weekend, which is down 38.5
percent from the same weekend last
year, according to Sunday estimates
from box office firm Rentrak.
While Neill Blomkamps R-rated
Chappie might have taken the No.
1 spot in its 3,201 theater debut, its
modest $13.3 million gross is hardly
anything to celebrate. Its a career
low for Blomkamp, whose previous
films Elysium and District 9
debuted at $29.8 and $37.4 million,
respectively.
Distributor Sony remains optimistic about its $49 million film
about a police robot (voiced by
Sharlto Copley) that learns how to
think and feel.
It certainly opened in our realm
of expectations for it for the weekend, said Rory Bruer, Sonys president of worldwide distribution. He
noted that the demographic breakdown of 60 percent male and 57 percent under 30 was good for the film.
Sony and its subsidiaries have
released all three of Blomkamps
films. I certainly believe, like
Neills other movies, that its going
to have a really strong multiple, and
were going to come out fine on the
movie, Bruer said.
The R-rated Vince Vaughn comedy Unfinished Business fared
even worse, opening at No. 10 to a
dismal $4.8 million. The $35 million film about a chaotic European
business trip also stars Dave Franco
and Tom Wilkinson.
In its second weekend in theaters, Will Smiths Focus fell an
estimated 46 percent to take second
place with $10 million, bringing its

domestic total to $34.6 million.

These are not exactly world class
numbers, said Paul Dergarabedian,
Rentraks senior media analyst.
This is two weekends in a row
where weve seen original R-rated
movies just not resonate with audiences with Focus last weekend and
Chappie this weekend.
One bright spot was Fox
Searchlights retiree comedy The
Second Best Exotic Marigold
Hotel, which opened in third place
with a strong $8.6 million from
1,573 locations.
Its one of the very rare instances of an indie sequel. You normally
dont see that, Dergarabedian said.
The PG-rated film, which reunites
Judi Dench, Maggie Smith and Bill
Nighy, will be expanding to about
1,800 screens next weekend.
The first film was somewhat of a
sleeper hit in 2012, grossing $46.4
million domestically on a budget of
$10 million.
Holdovers Kingsman: The Secret
Service and The SpongeBob
Movie: Sponge Out of Water
rounded out the top five with $8.3
million and $7 million, respectively.
This is the proverbial calm
before the storm. Were still on
track for a massive, record-breaking year. But there are going to be
a lot of casualties along the way,
and were seeing that right now,
Dergarabedian said.
Estimated ticket sales for
Friday through Sunday at U.S. and
Canadian theaters, according to
Rentrak. Where available, the latest
international numbers for Friday
through Sunday are also included. Final domestic figures will be
released today.

1. Chappie, $13.3 million

($13.7 million international).
2. Focus, $10 million ($17.7
million international).
3. The Second Best Exotic
Marigold Hotel, $8.6 million ($5.6
million international).
4. Kingsman: The Secret
Service, $8.3 million ($17 million
international).
5. The SpongeBob Movie:
Sponge Out of Water, $7 million
($9.6 million international).
6. Fifty Shades of Grey, $5.6
million ($17.7 million international).
7. McFarland, USA, $5.3 million.
8. The Lazarus Effect, $5.1
million ($700,000 international).
9. The DUFF, $4.9 million.
10. Unfinished Business, $4.8
million ($2.6 million international).

Estimated ticket sales for Friday

through Sunday at international
theaters (excluding the U.S. and
Canada), according to Rentrak:
1. Jupiter Ascending, $25.3
million.
2. Big Hero 6, $19.6 million.
3. Focus and Fifty Shades of
Grey, $17.7 million each.
4. Kingsman: The Secret
Service, $17 million.
5. American Sniper, $14.6 million.
6. Chappie, $13.7 million.
7. From Vegas to Macau II, $10
million.

9. Wolf Totem, $9.5 million.
10. The Second Best Exotic

$5.6 million.

Tax incentives for film, TV

projects total nearly $44M
HAMILTON (AP) Ohio has given nearly $44
million in tax incentives to movie, television and commercial crews since 2010 in an effort to lure the film
industry to the state, records show.
About 50 movies, TV shows, commercials and
video games have been made in Ohio since 2011, the
Hamilton-Middletown Journal-News reported (http://
bit.ly/1Nx2xuh ). Ohios tax incentive program for film
and television production, which began in 2009, will
cover up to 25 percent of production costs and wages,
and up to 35 percent for Ohio resident wages.
Production projects earning the largest incentives
from Ohio included Captain America: Winter Soldier
with nearly $4.9 million, Alex Cross with about $4.5
million and Draft Day with $4.3 million.
Studies have shown film production projects often
return funds to Ohios economy by providing more
business to local establishments and creating jobs. A
University of Cincinnati study last year showed that
three projects filmed in the area spent $46 million on
jobs, production and indirect spending for the films.
A 2012 Cleveland State University study found that
$1.20 was pumped back into Ohios economy for every
dollar the state spent on film production projects.
While filming has brought big names to Ohio including George Clooney, Ryan Gosling and Cate Blanchett,
the economic impact of productionwww.edwardjones.com
projects is more
exciting than the visiting stars, said Ivan Schwarz, presidentYou
of the
Greater
Cleveland
Film Commission.
Put
Them
In a Safe
Place.
Some of the movies that are coming through the
state, people are all excited about it because a certain

actor is here, Schwarz said. What they should be

really excited about is the jobs and economic development.
Its not about bringing Hollywood to Ohio, or
Cleveland, or Columbus. Its about bringing an industry, he added.
Ohio must compete with 38 other states that also
offer tax incentives for film projects.
When determining where a project will be filmed, its
all about price, said Norton Francis, a senior researcher
at the Tax Policy Center in Washington. If California
starts giving out more money, films would simply stay
put, he said.
Ohio caps its film incentives at $20 million per year,
but some want more money for the program.
Schwarz said he hopes the state will offer up to $50
million in incentives each year, but added that more
crew members need to gain experience to handle the
increased filming.
Still, the state union that represents most film workers has nearly tripled since the incentive program began.
Ive been in the business since 1975, said Ken
McCahan with the International Alliance of Theatrical
Stage Employees. Ive never seen this much movie
work in Ohio.

Buettner, Vonderwell qualify for

State Wrestling Championships
By LARRY HEIING
DHI Media Correspondent
news@delphosherad.com

TROY

Delphos
St. Johns wrestlers Brett
Vonderwell and Wes Buettner
survived two days of
high-competition wrestling
to advance to the Division
III State Tournament to be
held at Ohio States Jerome
Schottenstein Cente starting
Thursday.
Delphos Jefferson senior
Tyler Foust also qualified as
an alternate.
Vonderwell came into
the District tournament held
at Hobart Arena in Troy as
sectional champion at 160
pounds. Vonderwell quickly
moved onto the semifinals
with an opening-round pin
of Blanchesters Gage Egner
in 1:26 and a 6-3 decision
over Jacob Thompson of
Triad. After suffering a loss
in the next round, Vonderwell
punched his ticket to State
with an emotional 7-1 victory
over Adas Dylan Hannah.
Districts were a great
experience, taking on some
tough upperclassmen commented Vonderwell. Our
hard schedule that included
facing D-1 and D-2 wrestlers
during the season really helps
at this stage. I just take one
match at a time and I am really happy to be going to State
as a sophomore.
Buettner qualified for
State last season at 170
pounds and was looking for
a return trip this time at
195 pounds. He barely broke
a sweat on his way to the
semifinals with quick pins
of Caden Hellyer of Miami
East in 1:19 and took 36
seconds to nail Blanchesters
Cade Huston. In the go-to
round (semi-inals), Buettner
scored a 3-1 overtime win
over Colton Booth of TriCounty North to qualify for a
return trip to Columbus.
I thought that I wrestled
pretty well this weekend,

St. Johns senior Wes Buettner defeated Colton Booth of

Tri-County North 3-1 in overtime Saturday afternoon at
Hobart Arena in Troy to qualify for the State Wrestling
Championships for the second straight year. (DHI Media/
Larry Heiing)

Sophomore teammate Brett Vonderwell also qualified for

state with a 7-1 decision over Adas Dylan Hannah.
explained Buettner. I lost a
close match in the finals to
(Kyle) Dieringer of Versailles
and need to learn from my
mistakes to get better and
focus on next week.
Fousts opening round
ended with a pin of Jeremy
Heglin in 5:14. He lost to
Lehman Catholic sectional
champion Ben Miller (463) in round two, dropping
him down to the consolation
bracket. Foust wasnt about
to go away quietly as he
defeated Jarod Woodland of
Ada and pulled off his biggest victory, defeating Tytus
Collins of Waynesville 9-7.
After suffering his second
setback, Foust went on the

offensive with a 18-4 decision over Blake Lawson to

qualify as a state alternate
with his fifth-place finish.
Two Jefferson wrestlers
suffered defeat in the championship bracket but made it
through the tough consolation bracket to make it to the
awards podium at the end of
the day.
In the 132 bracket, Wyatt
Place scored a major decision
in the opening round before
suffering his first defeat.
Place then went 2-2 to finish
in sixth place. Josh Kroeger
lost his opening match but
then won three straight before
dropping the final two to also
finish in sixth place.

To have three placers

at the toughest Division III
tournament in the state is
outstanding, commented
Wildcat head coach Mike
Wilson. Our wrestlers
defeated some stiff competition this weekend but fell
short in the end. Im thrilled
for Tyler to qualify as an
alternate because this was his
best all-around performance
of the year.
Lincolnviews Alexander
Rodriguez followed a similar
path as the Jefferson wrestlers to earn 6th-place honors. Rodriquez defeated Trey
Lynch of Blanchester with
a 10-0 major decision 10-0
in the opening round before
suffering a setback. In the
consolation round, Rodriguez
defeated Bryson Mills to
earn his 100th career victory.
Rodriquez defeated a very
good Chase Sumner of Ada
for his last victory before suffering a pair of defeats.
A pair of State qualifiers
from last season earned the
return trip back to the Schott
as George Clemons and Tyler
Showalter (Wayne Trace)
survived to move on.
Im happy for their
chance to return to State,
exclaimed Raiders head
coach George Clemons Sr.
But districts are such an
emotional rollercoaster as we
had kids on one mat winning to qualify and others
suffering defeat to end their
seasons and careers.
Other area wrestlers that
participated but failed to
qualify included: Andrew
Foust and Reid Corzine
(Jefferson); Justin Siefker,
Austin Schulte and Alex
Haunhorst (St. Johns);
Caleb Sutherland and Tyler
Dues (Spencerville); Ryan
Stoller, Brady Couts and
Kaleb Cantrell (Van Wert);
and Preston Brubaker, Nick
Ogle, Christian Stechschulte,
Andrew Nichols and Eli
Wiswasswer
(Columbus
Grove).

Defending champ Harvick grabs 1st win

By JENNA FRYER
Associated Press
LAS VEGAS After winning the
Sprint Cup championship in their first
season together, Kevin Harvick and his
team came up with a new set of goals
this year.
Near the top of the list was winning at
Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Harvick, who grew up racing across
the West Coast, had never won at Las
Vegas and he told crew chief Rodney
Childers It would mean the world to
him to come here and win.
So Stewart-Haas Racing built him a
fast race car for their first visit to the
track and the team felt it had a chance
to win last years race. But a mechanical
failure derailed his effort and the loss
stuck with them for the entire year.

The shooting adds some

Johnson, who will be 30 in

to become an unrestricted

the NFLs new league year

Johnson on Feb. 14, when
they declined to exercise
their contract option on him
meaning he will be free to

Finally some snow for Iditarod mushers

By MARK THIESSEN
Associated Press

FAIRBANKS, Alaska Winter has

finally cooperated with the Iditarod.
More than four inches of new snowfall greeted Stan Hooley, the chief executive officer of the Iditarod Trail Sled
Dog Race, when he arrived in Fairbanks
on Sunday, a day before the competitive
race begins.
Seems a little bit more like the
Iditarod when you actually have some
snow around, said Hooley.
Warm temperatures have played
havoc with the Iditarod all winter long

as the same stalled jet stream that buried the eastern seaboard in snow has
left Alaska unseasonable warm and
dry. Officials last month decided conditions in the Alaska Range were so
poor because of a lack of snow that the
competitive start would be moved over
the mountain range to Fairbanks.
That wasnt the only change officials were considering and the ceremonial start in Anchorage could have
been moved to Fairbanks, as well, also
because of the weather.
It was closer than Id like to admit,
yeah, he said. We like to tell people
the Iditarod will never be canceled and

it wouldnt. But the possibility of the

ceremonial start needing to be moved as
well, was very real.
The temperature of 14 degrees and
light snow in Fairbanks Sunday morning were very different from the conditions mushers faced in Anchorage a
day before, when it was 40 degrees and
rainy. Municipality of Anchorage crews
trucked in snow so mushers could travel
downtowns streets for the ceremonial
start but Hooley said if the event had
gone on another hour, that all would
have been melted away.

Lady Green holds on in riveting

District final versus Kalida
By JIM METCALFE
DHI Media Sports Editor
jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com
LIMA A bad loss to Kalida way
back on Jan. 8 gave Ottoville coach
Dave Kleman a chance to have a heartto-heart talk with his players.
The Lady Big Green came full circle,
not only turning their seeason around
but gaining revenge with a 41-39 triumph over the LadyCats in Saturdays
Division IV District final clash at Lima
Senior Spartan Gymnasium.
The Lady Green (18-7) move on to
battle New Riegel, a 50-39 conqueror
of Attica Seneca East, at 6:15 p.m.
Thursday in the Elida Regional semis.
We had played a very poor game
then: we were uninspired and not playing as a team. We had that talk with the
girls about not having personal agendas, Kleman explained. The points
take care of themselves but its the
hustle plays defense, rebounding,
hitting the floor for loose balls, sharing
the ball that get you to that point and
we werent doing them. The girls took it
to heart and we have played some very
good basketball against some very
good teams since.
Senior Annie Lindeman echoed her
coach.
We didnt want to ever have that
feeling again as we had after the first
Kalida game. We also started to grow up
some, especially our younger girls, and
that was fun to see, she added.
The Lady Green (18-7) had led by as
much as 13 twice in the first half but one
just knew that the LadyCats (20-6) and
head coach Adam Huber would have
something to say about it.
The Maroon and White behind its
full-court press rallied to 31-28 to
commence the fourth period and what
an eight minutes it was. As one might
expect, any tussle between these two
PCL foes will be hard-fought and hotly-contested. A 3-ball by junior Nicole
Kramer (9 markers - 3 triples) gave the
eventual victors a 34-28 edge at 6:32 of
the finale. Kalida finally broke into the
scoring column at 4:47 with a 3-ball by
junior Brittany Kahle (13 counters), followed by a hard drive by junior Katelyn
Siebeneck at 3:38 and two foul shots by
senior Jacquelyn Gardner (12 markers, 8
boards, 3 steals) eight ticks hence to give
the LadyCats their first lead of the night.
Freshman Bridget Landin hit two
singles at 2:09 for Ottoville but Gardner
sliced to the hoop at 1:58 to give Kalida
its final lead of 37-36. Ottoville grabbed
the lead for good on a drive by Landin
at 1:45 and Lindeman (12 markers - 4
bombs - 4 boards) bloodlessly drained
a bomb from the left wing at 1:00 for
a 41-37 spread. Gardner was fouled
attacking the hoop and hit two foul shots
at 50.8. Forced to foul, Ottoville was
in the bonus but Lindeman missed two
front ends (after an offensive rebound)
at 32.9 and 28.5 ticks. Gardner missed
a chance for the tie and after Ottoville
committed its final turnover (14), Kalida

Kylie Osterhage tries to keep from falling down against the pressure of Ottovilles Nicole Kramer and Lexie Wannemacher during Division IV District-final action Saturday at Lima Senior. Ottoville grabbed a 2-point barn-burner of
a victory to advance. (DHI Media/Ken Poling)
called its last two timeouts and worked
the ball to senior Nicole Recker; her
spinning move in the paint would not
go down and Ottoville got alternating
possession after a mad scramble. Landin
was fouled with :00.3 ticks on the clock
and missed both shots but Kalida had no
chance to fire a full-court heave as time
expired.
Im so proud of how this team
battled back and gave themselves a
chance to win; the only thing I told
them at the last timeout was not leave
anything on the floor and they didnt,
Huber acknowledged. I felt we had two
good looks to tie it at the end but the
ball didnt go our way. I want to give
Ottoville the credit they made plays,
too, and have girls step up when needed.
I just feel badly for our two seniors,
Jackie and Nicole; its tough to lose but
thats high school sports.
Ottoville had fallen 37-25 to Kalida
in their PCL tussle, so the Lady Green
knew they needed a fast start in this one.
That happened. A triple by Lindeman
started it at the 7-minute mark and they
used 3-of-3 shooting from 3-land
8-of-20 for the game (with an overall
mark of 14-of-36 for 38.9%) in
leading by 13-5 on a putback by Alicia
Honigford at 30 ticks. When Kahle
knocked down a jump-stop 5-footer at
14 ticks, Kalida was within 13-7.
Ottoville was 5-of-9 shooting in the
period to 3-of-8 for Kalida.
Ottovilles man-to-man defense did
the trick again in the second period,
making things difficult for its foe (2-of-7
shooting). The Green slowed down some
4-of-10 but was more effective
as they twice led by 13 the second
at 25-12 on two foul shots by Brooke
Mangas (6 points) at 1:10. Siebeneck

was fouled shooting a deep ball at 29.5

ticks and hit 2-of-3 foul shots to get her
LadyCats within 25-14.
Kalida did two things after halftime: they went with a more wideopen offense to create driving space
and upped the defensive intensity with
their diamond press. Both worked. They
forced five turnovers and shot 4-of-8
from the floor, as well as got Ottoville
in foul trouble. They hit 5-of-8 at the
line (13-of-20 for the game for 65%) and
when Kahle drained two singles at 59.7
ticks, they stood within 31-28.
Overall, Ottoville finished 5-of-10
at the line (50%); secured 16 boards (3
offensive); and totaled 18 fouls.
In sum, Kalida downed 12-of-32
from the floor 2-of-7 rainbows for
37.5 percent; tracked down 21 caroms
(6 offensive); and added 14 miscues and
14 fouls.

Iditarod
(Continued from page 6)
There was one casualty
during the ceremonial run
when Stuart, a dog on Buena
Vista, Colorado, musher
Lachlan Clarkes team, was
struck and killed by a car in
Anchorage after it got loose.
Fairbanks hasnt been
entirely without weather worries either. The race was to
have started on the Chena
River but a string of days near
the freezing mark prompted

worry the ice wouldnt be

strong enough to handle the
weight of mushers, dog teams
and all the volunteers needed
at the start. Officials have
moved the start a few hundred feet onto land and mushers will go about a half-mile
before getting on the river.
The route change will put
78 mushers on an entirely
new route to the finish line
in the old Gold Rush town
of Nome on the Bering Sea,
most of it on river ice. The

winner, who will pocket

$70,000 and the keys to a
new pickup, is expected in
about nine days.
Fairbanks North Star
Borough
Mayor
Luke
Hopkins thanked community volunteers for making the
Fairbanks start a reality in
spite of the short turnaround.
You know, Fairbanks
steps up to it, he said.
It helps Fairbanks has an
extensive history with the
sport. The 1,000-mile Yukon

Quest International Sled Dog

Race, considered by some to
be even more rugged than the
Iditarod, alternates its start
and finish each year between
Fairbanks and Whitehorse,
Yukon Territory, Canada.
Fairbanks also plays host to
many sled dog sprint races
throughout the year.
Fairbanks
is
dog
mushing. Its more than a
sport here, its a lifestyle,
explained Deb Hickok, president of Explore Fairbanks.

It feels pretty good. Im pretty excited about it, Harvick said. This whole
Chase thing, there is a lot of strategy to
get in to it. The best strategy is to go out
and win races.
Next up for Harvick? A stop at
Phoenix, where he has won four of
the last five races. His November win
pushed him into the championship race.
Harvick led 142 of the 267 laps and
beat Martin Truex Jr. to the finish. He
did it while battling a vibration that
developed after his final pit stop.
It got to be a handful there at the
end, Harvick added. For whatever reason, we got really, really loose the last
run. Tires started vibrating and we were
just kind of hanging on. Glad the race is
over for our own good.
Truex was second and now has three
top-8 finishes to open the season. He
only had one top-5 finish last year, his
first with Furniture Row Racing.
Ryan Newman, runner-up to Harvick
in the championship finale, finished third
and was followed by Dale Earnhardt Jr.
in a Chevrolet sweep of the top four
spots.
Denny Hamlin was fifth in a Toyota
and followed by AJ Allmendinger, a
Chase qualifier last year.
Brad Keselowski was sixth and fol-

Results

Harvick
(Continued from page 6)

The Herald 7

lowed by Kyle Larson, Matt Kenseth,

Joey Logano and Jamie McMurray.
The race had several small incidents,
including one on lap 194 when Carl
Edwards squeezed Kasey Kahne into an
outside wall. Kahne then drove down
the track and seemed to hit Edwards,
sending him into a spin.
Edwards had to take his car to the
garage and took the blame for the initial
contact.
Completely my fault, he explained.
Jimmie Johnson, winner last week at
Atlanta, had a strong car but his day was
ruined by two different tire failures.
The first one, they said the bead
blew on it thats kind of a freak deal,
Johnson explained. The second one,
it went soft. So there could have been
some damage that caused it or some
rub or something like that and it went
soft going into Turn 3 and I hit the wall,
unfortunately.
Jeff Gordon had won the pole for the
race, but an accident in the closing minutes of Saturdays final practice session
sent him to a backup car. He had to drop
to the rear of the field at the start of the
race and although he picked his way
through traffic early, he had to avoid
teammate Johnsons contact with the
wall. It sent Gordons car into the back
of rookie Jeb Burton and caused enough
damage that Gordon had to go to pit

road for repairs.

He finished 18th and went over to
speak to Burton after the race.
Haas wants to know if Kurt Busch
will be eligible for Chase: Kurt Buschs
team owner doesnt know when the
suspended driver will be reinstated by
NASCAR.
But Gene Haas seemed to indicate
Sunday that Busch will be back in the
No. 41 when he is cleared to compete.
The co-owner of Stewart-Haas Racing
said the organization wants to know if
Busch will be eligible to race for the
championship when he returns.
Busch was suspended two days before
last months season-opening Daytona
500 for an alleged domestic assault
against a former girlfriend. He was not
criminally charged, and NASCAR said
Busch is working with them toward
reinstatement.
Hes missed three races and would
only be eligible for the Chase if
NASCAR granted him a waiver.
Haas said after Kevin Harvick gave
SHR its first win of the season on
Sunday that he has no indication when
Busch will be back in the car.
At this time, thats really up to
NASCAR, Haas added. Some of our
concerns are obviously does he come
back, could he get into the Chase? Those
issues really reside with NASCAR.

ing headaches were a direct

result of high blood pressure.
To make matters worse, the
same high blood pressure that
was causing my head to throb
was also destroying my kidneys.
I wish I had known about
my high blood pressure sooner and taken it seriously.
When I finally learned about
my kidney damage, it was too
late to save them.
More than 73 million people are at risk for developing
kidney disease, and I sincerely want to help them avoid
this fate. My battle with kidney disease has turned me into
an advocate for patients and
those who are at risk. In honor
of National Kidney Month in
March and World Kidney Day
on March 12, will you please
help me spread the word? -LANCE TAYLOR IN MINNESOTA
DEAR LANCE: Im
pleased to help you in this
worthwhile effort. According
to the National Kidney Foundation, one in three American
adults is at risk for kidney
disease. Major risk factors for
kidney disease include dia-

obesity and cardiovascular

disease.
Kidney disease often goes
undetected because it lacks
physical symptoms until the
very late stages. By then the
organs have already failed.
But early detection, healthy
lifestyle changes and proper
treatment can slow the progress of kidney disease. Those
at risk should have simple
blood and urine tests to check
if their kidneys are working
properly.
Readers, if you are at risk,
during your next physical examination, ask your health
care practitioner to check your
kidneys. To learn more about
prevention, visit kidney.org.

Hyperparathyroidism should be regularly monitored

DEAR DOCTOR
K: A recent blood
test showed that the
calcium level in my
blood is high. My
levels of something
called PTH are also
high. Now my doctor
has scheduled a parathyroid scan. Why?
What does calcium
have to do with the
parathyroid?
DEAR READER:
You have four parathyroid glands. These
pea-sized glands sit
on your thyroid gland,
in the lower part of
your neck. (Ive put
an illustration of the
parathyroid glands on
my website, AskDoctorK.com.)
A hormone is a
chemical made in
one organ that enters
the blood, travels
throughout the body
and affects how different parts of the
body work. The parathyroid glands produce the parathyroid
hormone (PTH).
The job of the
parathyroid glands
is to adjust their production of PTH to
keep calcium levels
in your blood within a normal range. If
the calcium level in
your blood starts to
drop, the parathyroid

glands make more

PTH. If calcium levels rise, the glands
make less hormone.
How does PTH
influence
calcium
levels? In three different ways. Lots
of calcium is stored
in your bones. PTH
causes the bones to
release calcium into
the blood. PTH also
stimulates the intestines to absorb more
calcium from food.
Finally, PTH signals
the kidneys to withhold calcium from
the urine.
Hyperparathyroidism (hi-per-para-THIGH-royd-izm)
occurs when one (or
more) of the parathyroid glands becomes
overactive and makes
more PTH than it
should. Excess hormone is released into
the bloodstream. The
result is abnormally
high levels of calcium and PTH in the
blood.
If your hyperparathyroidism is mild,
you might not need
treatment. But you
should have regular
blood tests to measure your blood calcium level and make
sure its not going
higher. You will also

need periodic bone

density tests because
PTH causes calcium
to leak out of bones,
which causes them to
thin.
More severe hyperparathyroidism
can cause bone pain
and thin, brittle bones
that are more easily
fractured. Elevated
levels of PTH and
calcium can also
trigger the formation
of kidney stones and
cause kidney damage, dehydration and
confusion.
The reason your
doctor has ordered
an imaging scan is to
check for an enlarged
parathyroid gland or
a parathyroid tumor.
Parathyroid cancer
is extremely rare. A
doctor may never see
a single case despite
practicing medicine
for decades. I never
have.
If your condition
is severe enough, you
may need surgery to
remove the affected
parathyroid gland(s).
If Driver
its less severe,
your doctor may prescribe
medication.
Drugs used to treat
hyperparathyroidism
include hormone replacement
therapy
and bisphosphonates,

Dr. Anthony
Komaroff

On Health

both of which help

bones retain calcium.
Another type of drug
mimics calcium in
the body, in order to
trick the parathyroid
gland into releasing
less PTH.
Fortunately, many
people with hyperparathyroidism have
a mild condition that
never becomes serious enough to require
treatment. But it does
require regular repeat
testing to be sure its
not getting worse.

Some states fight to keep their wood fires burning

(Continued from page 1)

Dr. Jeremy J. Heffner, Medical Director of ICU,

also credited the Lima Memorial team. These numbers
reflect a commitment from not just our physicians, but
our nursing staff, administration and support staff to
provide each and every one of our patients high quality
care. Our organization has been able to accomplish this
by utilizing advanced therapies, guided by current best

of our patients.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP)

Smoke wafting from wood fires has
long provided a familiar winter smell
in many parts of the country and, in
some cases, a foggy haze that has filled
peoples lungs with fine particles that
can cause coughing and wheezing.
Citing health concerns, the
Environmental Protection Agency now
is pressing ahead with regulations to significantly limit the pollution from newly
manufactured residential wood heaters.
But some of the states with the most
wood smoke are refusing to go along,
claiming that the EPAs new rules could
leave low-income residents in the cold.
Missouri and Michigan already
have barred their environmental agencies from enforcing the EPA standards.
Similar measures recently passed
Virginias legislature and are pending in
at least three other states, even though
residents in some places say the rules
dont do enough to clear the air.

Its been a harsh winter for many

people, particularly those in regions
repeatedly battered by snow. And the
EPAs new rules are stoking fears that
some residents wont be able to afford
new stoves when their older models
give out.
People have been burning wood
since the beginning of recorded time,
said Phillip Todd, 59, who uses a woodfired furnace to heat his home in Holts
Summit. Theyre trying to regulate it
out of existence, I believe, and they really have no concern about the economic
consequences or the hardship its going
to cause.
Others contend the real hardship has
fallen on neighbors forced to breathe the
smoke from winter wood fires.
The EPA typically relies on states to
carry out its air quality standards. But
states may not be able to effectively
thwart the wood-burning rules, because
federal regulators could step in to do the

Impulses

(Continued from page 1)

According to the National

Institute of Mental Health,
to be diagnosed with IED,
an individual must have had
three episodes of impulsive
aggressiveness grossly out
of proportion to any precipitating psychosocial stressor, at any time in their life,
according to the standard
psychiatric diagnostic manual. The person must have
all of a sudden lost control
and broke or smashed something worth more than a few
dollars, hit or tried to hurt
someone or threatened to hit
or hurt someone.
Koontz said individuals are
evaluated through psychological assessments identifying
anger issues or depression.
We do an inventory screening with subjective questions and
find a score for their risk, Koontz
said. If they do not respond to

anger management, they may

have to participate in psychotherapy for four to six weeks.
She said medical intervention is the last resort.
These people can get angry
in a grocery store line thats
moving too slow or being
held up by a cashier thats
talking too much with customers, she said. They have no
coping mechanisms and they
depersonalize the situation.
As with road rage, Koontz
said individuals with IED
depersonalize the car and feel
protected.
They dont take into
account the humans (other
drivers) affected by their
behavior or the consequences, Koontz added. They
have a release of endorphins
after the outburst.

If the EPA wants to come in here
and enforce it, come on in. (But) Im not
going to help them, said Michigan state
Sen. Tom Casperson, whose law barring
state enforcement of the EPA regulations
takes effect March 31.
About 10 percent of U.S. households
burn wood, and the number relying on
it as their primary heating source rose
by nearly a third from 2005 to 2012,
the latest year for which federal figures
were available.
The EPAs new rules, which are to
be phased in over five years, apply only
to new wood heaters and wont force
anyone to get rid of their older models.
The EPA estimates the restrictions will
reduce fine particle emissions from wood
heaters by nearly 70 percent. It says that
will result in an average of one fewer
premature death per day and yield about
$100 of public health benefits for every
$1 of additional cost to manufacturers.
