No budget, no pay advances despite reservations

By ANDREW TAYLOR The Associated Press WASHINGTON In an earlier era, a move like the one engineered by House GOP leaders to pass a no budget, no pay measure probably would have been stopped in its tracks. But with Congress approval ratings in the gutter, House lawmakers pushed aside questions about fairness and constitutionality and tacked the idea on to an unpopular, must-pass measure to increase the governments borrowing cap. The measure temporarily would withhold pay from any member of the House or Senate whose chamber doesnt pass a budget this year. The Senate is expected to approve it in the coming week, but only after leaders make clear they think no budget, no pay is rife with flaws and is not going to be repeated. The proposal is before the Senate because the House breezed past objections that the idea is unconstitutional because it could vary the pay of lawmakers in violation of the 27th Amendment to the Constitution. The House ignored concerns that the measure is unfair to members who are in the minority and are powerless to determine whether a budget passes or not. Nearly unmentioned was the prospect that withholding lawmakers pay favors wealthy members over those of more modest means and could, in theory, attract more affluent candidates better able to withstand having some of their $174,000 salary withheld. The last thing we want to do is to say to people running for Congress, If youre not a millionaire, dont run because theres no guarantee youll be paid, said Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y. For these reasons and more, the idea went nowhere in the last congressional session. But it was embraced about a week ago by House GOP leaders such as Speaker John Boehner of Ohio as they struggled to avoid

The hardworking people that I represent wouldnt be paid if they didnt show up and they didnt do their job. And this place should operate no differently.
Rep. Michael Fitzpatrick, R-Pa. a potential market-crippling default on government obligations. The proposal is a slap at the Democratic-controlled Senate, which hasnt passed a budget since 2009. Republicans advanced the measure as a oneyear experiment rather than a permanent law. The logic behind no budget, no pay goes like this: Passing a budget is the core responsibility of Congress, so why should lawmakers get paid if they dont do their main job? The hardworking people that I represent wouldnt be paid if they didnt show up and they didnt do their job, said Rep. Michael Fitzpatrick, R-Pa. And this place should operate no differently. For Republicans, much of the appeal of the measure was that it was a rare opportunity to cram something down the Senates throat. Two years of polarizing battles over issues big and small have left little good will between the GOPrun House and the Democraticcontrolled Senate. In the Senate, traditionalists such as Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., opted to set aside their concerns and avoid the task of beating back such an irresistible message. Reid also welcomed the reprieve from a potential economy-rattling government debt crisis.

Barge hits Mississippi River bridge; Oil cleanup ongoing

The Associated Press VICKSBURG, Miss. Cleanup crews with booms skimmed oily water from the Mississippi River a day after a barge with more than 80,000 gallons of oil struck a railroad bridge near Vicksburg, spreading a sheen of light crude that kept part of the waterway shut to ship traffic today, authorities said. The spill backed up at least 21 tugboats, barges and other vessels on the normally bustling corridor, Coast Guard spokesman Lt. Ryan Gomez said. He said he didnt know when the shutdown would be lifted. At least 11 northbound vessels and 10 southbound vessels were waiting to pass today, according to Gomez.

Survivors at the event at the bowling alley include, from left, Jim Bryan, Laura Peters, Monique Bryan and Pat Bryan.

Theyre still trying to determine how much leaked, how much was gone from the tank, Gomez said. He added that details remain unclear, though investigators reported a towboat or tug was pushing two tank barges when the collision occurred about 1:30 a.m. Sunday. The second barge was damaged, Gomez said, and authorities inspected and cleared the railroad bridge afterward. The oily sheen was reported up to three miles downriver from the bridge at Vicksburg on Sunday. Gomez said crews have laid down a boom and also a secondary boom. They also were using a rotating skimmer device to See BRIDGE, page 2

sweep up oily water in the river. They have the boom to contain any crude oil thats leaking out of the barge. They have a secondary boom to corral any crude oil that gets past the first boom, he said. He said crews also were in the process of working to transfer the remaining oil. They are continuing to try to remove the product from the damaged tank to one of the non-damaged tanks on the same barge, he added. The ultimate goal is to transfer all of the crude to a different barge. He said the barge was southbound at the time of the collision, but investigators were still trying to figure out exactly what happened Sunday. The oil sheen from Sundays incident was unlikely to pose a threat to the Gulf of Mexico, located more than 340 river miles south of Vicksburg. But it appeared to be coming from one or two tanks located at the stern of the first barge, Gomez had said previously. He said that there was no indication that any oil was leaking from the second barge and that it was still unclear whether the second barge also hit the bridge or was damaged through a collision with the first. United States Environmental Services, a response-and-remediation company, was working to contain the oil with booms before collecting it, Gomez said. Railroad traffic was allowed to continue after the bridge was found safe for trains, Petty Officer Carlos Vega said Sunday.

The Akron Beacon Journal reports that about 40 people came together Sunday night to remember Jamarcus Allen near the spot where he was killed. Authorities say Jamarcus was riding in a car driven by his father Wednesday when he apparently found a gun and shot himself in the head. The childs father, Terrence Allen, has been charged with involuntary manslaughter, child endangering and illegal weapons possession because a previous felony conviction prohibited him from carrying a firearm. The 48-year-old Allen is being held in the Summit County Jail. Some people attending the vigil said they hoped people would get rid of their guns.

Ohio gas prices still rising

BRIEFS

Aging America

STATE/LOCAL

Wind turbines will save OSU money

COLUMBUS (AP) Ohio motorists will see higher gas prices to start the work week. The average price for a gallon of regular gas in Ohio was $3.39 in Mondays survey from auto club AAA, the Oil Price Information Service and Wright Express. Thats 9 cents higher than a week ago. Experts say prices are continuing to rise because of solid economic recovery in China and the U.S. and other factors. The national average Monday was $3.35 about 4 cents higher than a week ago and 6 cents higher than this time last month. The Ohio average is about the same as a year ago at this time. The lowest average price in Ohio Monday was about $3.35 in the Toledo and Youngstown areas.

Elder abuse, use of shelters rising

By DAN SEWELL The Associated Press MASON She raises her hands to her snow-white hair in a gesture of frustrated bewilderment, then slowly lowers them to cover eyes filling with tears. The woman, in her 70s, is trying to explain how she wound up in a shelter that could well be where she spends the rest of her life. While the woman was living with a close family member, officials at the Shalom Center say, her money was being drained away by people overcharging for her grocery shopping, while her body and spirit were sapped by physical neglect and emotional torment. She says she was usually ordered to go to bed, where she lay in a dark room, upset, unable to sleep. She just yelled at me all the time. Screamed at me, cussed me out, the woman says of a family member. I dont know what happened. She just got tired of me, I guess. The Shalom Center offers shelter, along with medical, psychological and legal help, to elderly abuse victims in this northern Cincinnati suburb. It is among a handful in the country that provide sanctuary from such treatment, a problem experts say is growing along with the age of the nations population. The number of Americans 65 and over is projected to nearly double by 2030 because of the 74 million baby boomers born in 194664, and the number of people 85 and over is increasing at an even faster rate. The number of seniors being abused, exploited or neglected every year is often estimated at about 2 million, judging by available statistics and surveys, but experts say the number could be much higher. Some research indicates that 1 in 10 seniors have suffered some form of abuse at least once. Thats a big number, said Sharon MerrimanNai, project director of the Clearinghouse on Abuse and Neglect of the Elderly, based at the University of Delaware. Its a huge issue, and its just going to get bigger. Recognition of and mech-

My argument always is, if all you do is come in when the crisis has occurred, it is much more costly than preventative care. Were going to have to pay for it anyway.
Joy Solomon, a former Manhattan assistant prosecutor, pioneer of elder abuse shelters anisms for dealing with elder abuse are many years behind strides that have been made in child abuse awareness and protection, experts say. Getting comprehensive numbers of the abused is complicated, experts say, because the vast majority of cases go unreported out of embarrassment, fear of being cut off from family most abuse is at the hands of relatives or confusion about what has happened. Abuse sometimes comes to light only by chance. County-level adult protective services caseworkers can get anonymous tips. In one recent Ohio case, a hair stylist noticed her elderly client was wincing in pain and got her to acknowledge she had been hit in the ribs by a relative. Another Shalom Center patient was referred by sheriffs detectives who said his son beat him. Are these older people going to be allowed to live their lives the way they deserve to? said Carol Silver Elliott, CEO of the Cedar Village retirement community, of which the Shalom Center is a part. We really are not addressing it as a society the way we should. The Obama administration has said it has increased its focus on protecting American seniors by establishing a national resource center and a consumer protection office, among other steps. But needs are growing at a time when government spending on social services is being cut on many levels or

Ohio Honda plant installs wind turbines

COLUMBUS (AP) Ohio State University officials say they expect to save $1 million in energy costs this year thanks to wind turbines in northwest Ohio. The university in Columbus signed a 20-year agreement last fall to buy 50 megawatts of power annually generated by spinning wind turbines at Blue Creek Wind Farm. Its the state largest commercial wind farm, with 152 turbines in Van Wert and Paulding counties. One megawatt of electricity can light about 300 homes. And 50 megawatts are enough to power about a quarter of the campus. The Columbus Dispatch reports that its part of the universitys goal of becoming carbon neutral. Ohio State recently named energy as one of three priority focus areas for university wide teaching, research and community outreach over the next 10 years.

COLUMBUS The state is eliminating 34 jobs staffing 11 information centers along Ohios interstate highways and one on at the Statehouse in Columbus. Ohio Department of Transportation spokesman Steve Faulkner says the jobs are going because travelers can now access the same information on their smart phones and other web devices. But tourism professionals are lamenting the move. They say the face-to-face interaction drives more tourism for the state. The travel centers, occupying small rooms at highway rest stops, have operated for decades. The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer reports that cutting the jobs will save $2.1 million for roads and bridges. The travel-center workers are being offered open jobs elsewhere in the department. The transportation department has cut 500 jobs since Gov. John Kasich took office.

Ohio eliminating travel info jobs

RUSSELLS POINT (AP) The Honda transmission plant in western Ohio will be among the first U.S. automotive manufacturing facilities to get a substantial amount of electricity from wind turbines on the property. The Bellefontaine Examiner reports that the industrial wind turbines at its Russells Point plant will be up and running sometime this year. Company spokesman Ron Lietzke says it will be the first Honda plant in the world to introduce a wind turbine project of this size. The turbines, built by Juhl Wind Inc. of Pipestone, Minn., will sit atop two 260-foot towers. Each will have blades 160 feet long that will drive generators capable of producing about 10,000-megawatt hours annually. Thats about 10 percent of the plants electrical needs. It also will help reduce its carbon dioxide emissions.

not keeping up with demand. In Ohio, slowly recovering from the recession, budgets have been slashed in such areas as staffs that investigate elderly abuse cases. Staff at the Job and Family Services agency in Hamilton County in Cincinnati is about half the size it was in 2009, spokesman Brian Gregg said. Even as national statistics indicate elder abuse is increasing, the number of elder abuse cases the agency can probe is lower, down from 574 cases in 2009 to 477 last year, he said. There are no longer enough adult protective services investigators to routinely check on older adults unless there is a specific report of abuse or neglect. We do the best we can down here, Gregg said, noting that the agency has a hotline to take anonymous reports and that it is seeing more financial scams targeting elderly people. The price for not getting ahead of the problem and preventing abuse of people who would otherwise be healthy and financially stable will be high, warned Joy Solomon, a former Manhattan assistant prosecutor who helped pioneer elder abuse shelters with the Weinberg Center for Elder Abuse Prevention, which opened in 2005 at the Hebrew Home community in New York City. My argument always is, if all you do is come in when the crisis has occurred, it is much more costly than preventative care, said Solomon, director of the shelter, which takes in about 15 people a year. Were going to have to pay for it anyway. She and others in the field say the first steps are to raise public awareness and train police, lawyers, criminal justice officials and others to recognize and respond to signs of abuse. Prosecutors often have been reluctant to pursue elder abuse cases, which can be complex because of medical and financial complications, the witness ability to testify or reluctance to testify against relatives, according to research for the National Institute of Justice.

Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously. A person may be proud without being vain. Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what From Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen (1775-1817) we would have others think of us.

Senators reach agreement on immigration reform

By ERICA WERNER The Associated Press WASHINGTON A bipartisan group of leading senators has reached agreement on the principles of sweeping legislation to rewrite the nations immigration laws. The deal, which was to be announced at a news conference Monday afternoon, covers border security, guest workers and employer verification, as well as a path to citizenship for the 11 million illegal immigrants already in this country. Although thorny details remain to be negotiated and success is far from certain, the development heralds the start of what could be the most significant effort in years toward overhauling the nations inefficient patchwork of immigration laws. President Barack Obama also is committed to enacting comprehensive immigration legislation and will travel to Nevada on Tuesday to lay out his vision, which is expected to overlap in important ways with the Senate effort. The eight senators expected to endorse the new principles Monday are Democrats Charles Schumer of New York, Dick Durbin of Illinois, Robert Menendez of New Jersey and Michael Bennet of Colorado; and Republicans John McCain of Arizona, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Marco Rubio of Florida and Jeff Flake of Arizona. Several of these lawmakers have worked for years on the issue. McCain collaborated with the late Democratic Sen. Edward M. Kennedy on comprehensive immigration legislation pushed by thenPresident George W. Bush in 2007, only to see it collapse in the Senate when it couldnt get enough GOP support. Now, with some Republicans chastened by the November elections which demonstrated the importance of Latino voters and their increasing commitment to Democrats, some in the GOP say this time will be different. Whats changed, honestly, is that there is a new, I think, appreciation on both sides of the aisle including maybe more importantly on the Republican side of the aisle that we have to enact a comprehensive immigration reform bill, McCain said Sunday on ABCs This Week. I think the time is right, McCain said. The group claims a notable newcomer in Rubio, a potential 2016 presidential

This is a terrible idea for reasons too numerous to list in this space, which forces me to recommend my 2008 book, Save the Males, in which I devote a chapter to the issue. The most salient point happens to be a feminist argument: Women, because of their inferior physical capacities and greater vulnerabilities upon capture, have a diminished opportunity for survival. More on this, but first lets be clear. Arguments against women in direct combat have nothing to do with courage, skill, patriotism or dedication. Most women are equal to most men in all these categories, and are superior to men in many other areas, as our educational graduation rates at every level indicate. Women also tend to excel as sharpshooters and pilots. But ground combat is one area in which women, through quirks of biology and

Ryan: GOP needs to pick its fights with Obama

Leading Democrat: Gun control faces uphill climb

The Associated Press WASHINGTON Sen. Dianne Feinstein, whos leading the push to restore an assault weapon ban, acknowledged on Sunday that the effort faces tough odds to pass Congress and she blamed the nations largest gun-rights group. Feinstein, D-Calif., on Thursday introduced a bill that would prohibit 157 specific weapons and ammunition magazines that have more than 10 rounds. The White House and fellow Democrats are skeptical the measure is going anywhere, given lawmakers who are looking toward re-election might fear pro-gun voters and the National Rifle Association. This has always been an uphill fight. This has never been easy. This is the hardest of the hard, Feinstein said. I think I can get it passed because the American people are very much for it, Feinstein said of the measure that follows a similar measure she championed into law 1994 but expired a decade later. She acknowledged, however, the NRAs political clout. They come after you. They put together large amounts of money to defeat you, Feinstein said. She also said the group was a pawn of those who make weapons. The NRA is venal. The NRA has become an institution of gun manufacturers, she said. The NRA disputed her characterization. The NRA is a grass-roots organization. We have more than 4 million dues-paying members and tens of millions of supporters all across this country. Our political power comes from them. Decent and logical people would understand that, spokesman Andrew Arulanandam said. The Senate Judiciary Committee plans to take up the proposal on Wednesday and hear from the NRAs CEO and senior vice president, Wayne LaPierre. Mark Kelly, the husband of former Rep. Gabby Giffords, D-Ariz., who was shot in an assassination attempt, also plans to testify. Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, the GOP vice presidential nominee in

candidate whose conservative bona fides may help smooth the way for support among conservatives wary of anything that smacks of amnesty. In an opinion piece published Sunday in the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Rubio wrote that the existing system amounts to de facto amnesty, and he called for commonsense reform. According to documents obtained by The Associated Press, the senators will call for accomplishing four goals: Creating a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants already here, contingent upon securing the border and better tracking of people here on visas. Reforming the legal immigration system, including awarding green cards to immigrants who obtain advanced degrees in science, math, technology or engineering from an American university. Creating an effective employment verification system to ensure that employers do not hire illegal immigrants. Allowing more lowskill workers into the country and allowing employers to hire immigrants if they can demonstrate they couldnt recruit a U.S. citizen; and establishing an agricultural worker program.

2012, said Congress should focus on the causes of violence and not the weapons alone. We need to look beyond just recycling failed policies of the past. Lets go beyond just this debate and make sure we get deeper. Whats our policy on mental illness? Whats going on in our culture that produces this kind of thing? You know, we need to have that kind of a discussion and debate, Ryan said. Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., also urged lawmakers to consider mental health issues. When I hear some of this conversation, I think that were looking at symptoms, were not looking at the root causes, she said. And I understand the senators passion for this, but I got to tell you, an assault ban is not the answer to helping keep people safe. New York City Police Commissioner Ray Kelly, who favors the assault weapons ban, expressed skepticism that it would be returned to law.

Point of View
human nature, are not equal to men a difference that should be celebrated rather than rationalized as incorrect. Remember, were not talking about female officers of a certain age pacing the hallways of the Pentagon when we speak of placing women in combat, though perhaps we should be. My favorite bumper sticker remains: Im out of estrogen and I have a gun. Were potentially talking about 18-year-old girls, notwithstanding their adult designation under the law. (Parents know better.) At least 18-yearold males have the advantage of being gassed up on testosterone, the hormone that fuels not just sexual libido but, more to the point, aggression. To those suffering a sudden onset of the vapors, ignore hormones at your peril. Now, hold the image of your 18-year-old daughter, neighbor, sister or girlfriend as you follow these facts, which somehow have been ignored in the advancement of a fallacy. The fallacy is that because men and women are equal under the law, they are equal in all endeavors

and should have all access to the same opportunities. This is true except when the opportunity requires certain characteristics. Fact: Females have only half the upper-body strength as males no small point in the field. Further to the fallacy is the operating assumption that military service is just another job. The rules of civil society do not apply to the military, which is a top-down organization in which the rules are created to maximize efficiency in killing enemies. It is not just another job that can be managed with the human resources departments Manual on Diversity and Sensitivity. The argument that womens performance on de facto front lines in Iraq and Afghanistan has proved concerns about combat roles unwarranted is false logic. Just because women in forward support companies can return fire when necessary or die doesnt necessarily mean they are equal to men in combat. Unbeknownst perhaps to many civilians, combat has a very specific meaning in the military. It has nothing to do with stepping on an IED or suffering the consequences of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. It means AGGRESSIVELY ENGAGING AND ATTACKING the enemy

with deliberate offensive action, with a high probability of face-to-face contact. If the enemy is all around you and you need every available person that is one set of circumstances. To ask women to engage vicious men and risk capture under any other is beyond understanding. This is not a movie or a game. Every objective study has argued against women in direct combat for reasons that havent changed. The threat to unit cohesion should require no elaboration. But lets leave that obvious point to pedants and cross into enemy territory where somebodys 18-year-old daughter has been captured. No one wants to imagine a son in these circumstances either, obviously, but women face special tortures. And, no, the rape of men has never held comparable appeal. We can train our men to ignore the screams of their female comrades, but is this the society we want to create? And though some female veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars have endured remarkable suffering, their ability to withstand or survive violent circumstances is no rational argument for putting American girls and women in the hands of enemy men. It will kill us in the end.

Arlington too much for Jefferson boys

Lady Green overwhelms Jeffcats

By JIM METCALFE jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com DELPHOS The Jefferson girls basketball team usually plays its home games at the high school but Saturdays clash with topranked and unbeaten Ottoville was moved to The Stage of the Jefferson Middle School. It didnt matter where it was played as the Lady Green lived up to that top billing with a 78-35 dismantling of the Lady Wildcats. They just have too much size and strength; they are a very good team, Jefferson mentor Dave Hoffman said. You have to try and pick your poison as to how you defend them and hope they arent hitting from the outside. I think we were also a little intimidated at the start and that didnt help us. We didnt match up physically with them the first half; it was just a mismatch. Ottoville (17-0) unleashed a balanced offense: inside-out and all over the place; as they canned 33-of-57 shots (5-of15 treys) for 57.9 percent. The senior twin towers of 6-0 Rachel Beining and 6-2 Abby Siefker dominated inside with 24 points and nine boards and 18 and 13, respectively. Senior Rachel Turnwald added 11 on three treys. Ottoville dominated on the glass as well 42-24 (17-15 offensive). For Lady Green mentor Dave Kleman, it was what he likes to see. Im much more comfortable when we can spread the wealth and share the basketball. We have done a nice job with that this year; we pass the ball well and really work well together, Kleman said. I like to see us get half to 2/3 of our baskets on assists. Its our second week without Tonya (Kaufman) and though we arent quite the same without her, were still a good team. Were getting others like Kendra (Eickholt), Haley (Landwehr) and Annie (Lindeman) experience in filling some of what she did. The long and lanky Ottoville 1-2-2 zone (fulland half-court) limited the

Vikings pull away from Kalida in PCL boys

By DAVE BONINSEGNA The Delphos Herald zsportslive@yahoo.com KALIDA The Leipsic Vikings boys basketball team was coming off a 102-point performance against Van Buren on Friday night and went into Kalida looking to continue to mount up the points. In the first few minutes of the contest, it appeared as if the guests were going to pick up where they left off; scoring the first five points of the game and 19 in the opening period. However, after a back-andforth battle in the last two frames, the Wildcats could not contain their Putnam County League rival as the visitors stayed undefeated in the league with a 65-53 victory. Devin Mangas surpassed the 20-point mark for the second straight game, leading all scorers with 21; Zach Kuhlman drained 19 while hitting five shots from long range in the win. Kalida dominated the low post on the offensive side as Austin Horstman knocked down 20 points; Cody Mathew made sure the outside game was covered, hitting 16 points and four shots from beyond the arc. The Vikings came out and pressed early and often; Mangas picked off a Kalida dribble at mid-court and took it in for an easy layup to give the guests a 13-5 lead midway into the first frame. However, Kalida answered back with a steal of its own with Horstman taking a half-court pass for a deuce to cut the deficit to 15-11 late in the frame. The next 90 seconds-plus was a back-and-forth, up-and-down battle; when the horn sounded at the end of the first eight minutes, the Vikings held a 19-13 advantage. The Leipsic pressure continued into the second canto but in a reverse of the start of the game, the Wildcats were the ones coming out with a 5-0 run; Randy Zeller nailed a long-range shot to cut the Leipsic lead to three at 21-18 with 7:23 to go before the break. Mangas answered right back on the next trip down court. Kalida battled back in See VIKINGS, page 7

Sandwiched between Ottovilles Annie Lindeman and Haley Landwehr, Jefferson junior Katie Goergens battles for a defensive rebound Saturday afternoon at The Stage. The top-ranked Lady Big Green romped past the host Lady Wildcats 78-35. (Delphos Herald/Tom Morris). Wildcats (6-12) to 11-of-52 shooting (3-of-22 long range) for 21.2 percent. Junior Hannah Sensibaugh led the scoring with 13. The Lady Green exploded out of the gate with 28 first-period points against the Jefferson 1-2-2 zone. In particular, Beining was on fire with 12 markers, while Siefker added six and junior Nicole Vorst five. On the other end, the much smaller Wildcats struggled to get much going inside against their taller foe, thus relying a lot on their perimeter game. They struggled, going 2-of-9 from the floor and committing seven of their 20 turnovers, and added 4-of-4 shooting at the line to get all their points. When Vorst hit an 18-footer from the left side with a tick left, Ottoville led 28-9. They finished 12-of-21 shooting in the canto. The Green and Gold lead continued to grow in the second period, though the Ottoville offense slowed down. They turned it over five times out of the game total of 19 but still dropped in 9-of-15 from the field. On the other end, the Red and White were 3-of-15 as Sensibaugh netted all seven of their points. When the sophomore Lindeman took a lob from Siefker to the glass with 51 ticks on the clock, Ottovilles lead was 42-16. The trend of the first half continued into the third: the Green and Gold were simply too big and too loaded for the senior-less Wildcats to deal with. The margin grew to 67-19 on a turnaround from the right block by Siefker before junior Jasmine McDougall scored from in front at 34 ticks and Sensibaugh hit a toss at 28.2 ticks to make it 67-22. With all that was left to be decided was the final score, Ottoville went to its deep

reserves in the fourth period. Jefferson junior Rileigh Stockwell shook loose for six of her eight points in the stanza as the Red and White outscored their foe 13-11. The second half, we focused on trying to be more physical with them and we were better at it. We just lost to a better team, Hoffman added. Ottoville totaled 7-of-10 freebies (70%); and 12 fouls. They visit Elida Tuesday We went zone, figuring that with the tough shooting background here (windows at each end of the court) and our long and lanky defense, it would be tough for them to shoot, Kleman added. Jefferson finished 10-of-13 at the line (76.9%); and 11 fouls. They host Spencerville Thursday (tip TBD). In junior varsity action, Ottoville improved to 13-4 with a 34-28 triumph. Sophomore Courtney Von Sossan led the victors with 12 (4 treys). Freshman Taylor Stroh topped Jefferson (5-12) with nine.

Panthers survive for 13th win of the year

By BOB WEBER The Delphos Herald btzweber@bright.net came from the foul line. The Schimmoeller brothers contributed all six of the Big Greens points with Lukes four and Dereks. After three quarters of play, the game was knotted at 24 apiece. The final eight minutes of play saw the Big Green have some great looks at the basket; however, they couldnt connect and the Panthers outscored them 14-8 in the final stanza. The Panthers were 6-10 from the stripe and their defensive pressure caused the Big Green to turn the ball over several times in the final couple of minutes to preserve the hard-fought win. Big Green head coach Todd Turnwald was disappointed that his team could not pull it out this night: Its kind of disappointing because we played the game that we wanted; we wanted them to play a basketball game tonight because we knew coming in that athlete-to-athlete, they had some very good players and lots of them. We felt basketball-to-basketball, we could compete with them and obviously we did tonight; we can play with anybody. We held their leading scorer (Foor) to two points. We just need to be able to beat some of these teams and thats where the execution at the end of the game comes in and we cant foul 3-point shooters like we did tonight twice and turn the ball over late in the game and expect to win games. The Panthers (13-3) were led in scoring by Kauser with 14 points. The Panthers shot 38 percent from the field (9-23 inside the arc and 2-6

from 3-point land). From the foul line, the Panthers were 14-22 (64%) and brought down 15 rebounds and committed 15 turnovers. The Big Green (6-10) was led in scoring by Landin and (Luke) Schimmoeller with nine points each. The home team shot 29 percent from the field (11-27 inside the arc and 1-14 from beyond the arc). The Big Green was 7-7 from the charity stripe, pulled down 25 rebounds and committed 18 turnovers. The Panthers will next be in action Friday night as they host the T-Birds of Lima Central Catholic. The Big Green will also be on the road Friday as they travel to Kalida to take on the Wildcats in a PCL matchup. The Panthers won the junior varsity game by a score of 25-8.

BLUFFTON The Bluffton University mens basketball team defeated Franklin College, 72-69, on Saturday, showing off in front of the Alumni Day and Hall of Fame crowd. Bluffton improved to 9-10 overall and 5-7 in the Heartland Conference with its fifth victory in the last six games. Franklin fell to 11-8 overall and 6-6 in the HCAC. Junior Will Pope (Somerville/ Preble Shawnee) made a layup to tie the score up at four just over two mintues into the game. Franklin went back ahead before Pope cashed in with another layup to tie the game at six. The Beavers went ahead by two with a jumper from freshman Billy Taflinger (Lima/Central Catholic). Less than 20 seconds later, Franklin scored for the third tie of the game. The home team pulled ahead once again with a jumper from sophomore Ryan Ebbeskotte (Fort Jennings/Delphos Jefferson) and a layup from Taflinger. With 10:07 on the clock, the Grizzlies took the lead and held on until the 5:35 mark when senior Josh Fisher (Rockford/Parkway) made two free throws. Six Bluffton freebies, including four from Fisher

Beavers continue winning ways with 72-69 victory over Franklin By Keisha Holtsberry Sports information assistant

BLUFFTON The Bluffton women looked to answer Wednesdays loss at Earlham with a Saturday win as they welcomed Franklin College to Sommer Center, but the Grizzlies held off a late Bluffton comeback to nail down a 61-50 victory on Hall of Fame Day. Franklin jumped out to a 6-0 lead through the first three-anda-half minutes before Brenna Kurilec (Mt. Gilead/Gilead Christian) put the Beavers on the board with a layup at the 16-minute mark. The sophomore wing then followed that up with two free throws which cut the Grizzly lead to two. After a quick Franklin spurt made the score 13-5, Kaitlyn Pennekamp (Hamilton/Ross) hit a three before converting a steal and layup to make it 13-10. Franklin widened the spread until Kylee Burkholder (West Unity/ Hiltop) hit a jumper and Taylor Whitaker (Mansfield/Lexington) drilled a three on consecutive possessions, making the score 20-15 at the 9:26 mark. After a Krista Schott free throw put the visitors up nine, Brooke Ruffer (Stryker) hit two free throws and Brenna Kurilec converted an old-fashioned three-point play on consecutive possessions that quickly cut the deficit to four, 24-20, with 5:31 left in the half. Another Kurilec basket and two free throws from Ruffer tied the score at 24 just two minutes later, but the Grizzlies closed the half on a 6-2 run for a 30-26 lead. The Grizzlies scored the first four points of the second half before Whitaker found the net for two at the 17:09 mark, but a 6-2 Franklin run put the visitors ahead 40-30 with 14:13 left Franklin continued to pour it on, going up by as many as 16 at the 10:31 mark before the Beavers began their comeback attempt. A Whitaker three at the 9:08 mark sparked a 10-0 Beaver run that consisted of eight points from her and a jumper by Pennekamp, pulling the home squad within six with 4:37 left. However, poor shooting and costly turnovers by the Beavers helped the Grizzlies close out the game on an 11-6 run while securing their ninth conference victory of the season, 61-50.

Franklin drops Bluffton 61-50 on Hall of Fame Day By Evan Skilliter Sports information assistant

and two by Pope, a Taflinger trifecta gave the Beavers a 36-32 lead at the break. The Beavers came out ready to roll in the second half and quickly increased their lead to 10 thanks to consecutive treys from Ebbeskotte. The lead hovered between six and ten points until Gunner Erwins layup and triple with 16 ticks left made it a two-point game (69-67). With four seconds left Erwin got to the rack, pulling Franklin within a point, but two free throws from Ebbeskotte sealed the win. Bluffton was led by Pope with 15 points and eight rebounds. Ebbeskotte contributed a careerhigh 13 and went 2-of-2 from deep. Taflinger dropped in a career-best 12 markers on 5-of7 shooting from the field. Josh Fisher added 12 points and five dimes. Franklins Erwin led all scorers with 29 points on 9-of20 from the field and 8-for-10 at the line. The Beavers went 23-of-50 (46.0 percent) from the field, while Franklin was 24-of-55 (43.6 percent). Bluffton converted on 23-of-30 (76.7 percent) at the stripe compared to Franklins 16-of-22 (72.7 percent). The Beavers went 3-of7 (42.9 percent) from distance, while Franklin finished just 5-of-20 (25.0 percent). The win over Franklin, coupled with Mount St. Josephs loss to HCAC-leading RoseHulman, moves Bluffton into a tie with the Mount for sixth place and a berth in the Heartland Conference tournament. The Beavers will have a chance to avenge their November 28 loss to the Mount when Bluffton heads to MSJ on Wednesday night. Tip-off is slated for 7:30 p.m. in Cincinnati. -

Second half paces Jays over Bearcats

jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com

By JIM METCALFE

DELPHOS Both St. Johns and Spencerville were coming off of tough league losses from Friday night: the Blue Jays to MAC power St. Henry and Spencerville to NWC stud Crestview; when the two boys basketball units met up Saturday night at Robert A. Arnzen Gymnasium. The Bearcats had the better of things in the first half, leading 25-24 at the break, but the Blue Jays dominated the second half including a shutout in the fourth period to emerge with a 54-35 non=league triumph. You always worry about how your team will come out after a tough league loss the night before. We were playing another good team in Spencerville and they hit some shots early; (Ben) Bowers got them going right away, Jays coach Aaron Elwer noted. I felt that after we got through the first period, we were OK. We started to hit some shots and that got us into the game a lot more. For Spencerville mentor Kevin Sensabaugh, it was another Saturday night game that got away. We had a tough game the night before, a close loss to Crestview, but St. Johns was in the same boat coming off a loss, he explained. In all honesty, we have not played well on Saturday nights all season for some reason. Bowers led the Bearcats with 15 points; 11 of those came in the first period as he netted three treys to stake the visitors to an 18-11 edge. St. Johns senior Ryan Buescher tried to counter Bowers as he dropped in nine of his teamand game-high 18 but Seth

By HOWARD ULMAN The Associated Press BOSTON The Celtics grip on the last playoff spot in the Eastern Conference already was slipping. Now theyll have to hang on without Rajon Rondo. Bostons star point guard will miss the rest of the season and undergo surgery for a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. The Celtics won without him on Sunday, beating the Miami Heat 100-98 in double overtime. But what will the Celtics (21-23) do without him for the remaining 38 games with just a 2 1/2-game lead over the ninth-place Philadelphia 76ers? Well see, coach Doc Rivers said. Obviously, thats a blow. Its a huge blow for us. Rondo had triple-doubles in his last two games, giving him five for the season. He brought the ball up, got it to the right people and even improved his weak shooting so much that his 48.4 field goal percentage was third best among NBA guards. He was averaging career highs of 13.7 points and 5.6 rebounds along with 11.1 assists this season. And he was chosen as the starting point guard for the Eastern Conference in the All-Star game in Houston on Feb. 17. Now hes done. The club said he was hurt late in Friday nights 123-111 loss, also in double overtime, in Atlanta. We still like our chances

Loss of Rondo for year hurts Celts playoff chances

in the Eastern Conference, said Paul Pierce, who had his own triple-double Sunday with 17 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists. Responsibilities definitely go up when you have Rondo out of the game. (Im) more of a facilitator. (I) have to (do) a little bit of everything for this ball club. Kevin Garnett led the Celtics with 24 points and 11 rebounds and they responded well without Rondo. Their other guards Avery Bradley, Courtney Lee, Jason Terry and Leandro Barbosa each played at least 25 minutes and combined for 35 points. The Celtics prospects were bleak even before Rivers learned about 25 minutes before the game that Rondo wouldnt play. They had lost six straight games, their longest slide in six seasons. The Heat had won their last four and had the best record in the East. At first, Rondo thought he had a hamstring injury, Rivers said. Then he was ruled out of the game with what the team said was a hyperextended right knee. An MRI was done and Rivers learned about the ACL tear during the game. Hes known to play through injuries, Pierce said. If Rondo can suit up, hes going to suit up. So he didnt suit up today and we knew it wasnt good. Rivers told his players of the severity of Rondos injury after the game. Even LeBron James, who led all scorers with 34 points, expressed sympathy. As much as Ive been a rival with Boston over the years, I never want to see anyone go down, James said. Its terrible. James had a chance to put the Heat ahead after Pierces 22-footer gave Boston a 99-98 lead with 31 seconds left in the second overtime. But James missed a 12-foot jumper with 6.8 seconds to go. Pierce got the rebound and was fouled. He sank the first shot. Then, as a fan shouted This ones for Rondo, he missed the second. Miami had one last chance but Shane Battier missed a long jumper at the buzzer. They defended that very well, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. There are about three different options to it, four different options to it. They defended each one of them. The Heat also could have won in the first overtime but Dwyane Wade, who had 17 points, missed a jumper as the buzzer sounded. Boston could have avoided the first overtime when Pierce inbounded from behind his backboard to Terry with 2 seconds left. But Terrys shot from the top of the key was short. The Heat had tied it on a 3-pointer by James with 7 seconds remaining in regulation after Ray Allen missed a 3-pointer with 15 seconds to go. This game was Allens first in Boston since he left the Celtics after five seasons and signed as a free agent with Miami. He scored 21 points. The crowd gave him a standing ovation when highlights of his career were shown on the video board above center court during a See RONDO, page 8

Bockey was the only other scorer for the Jays in the stanza with a deuce. The Jays (10-4) put the clamps on Bowers in the second frame, limiting him to a field goal. Zach Goecke (2), Coleman McCormick (2) and Derek Goecke (1) accounted for the rest of the Bearcats points in the period. The Jays werent exactly lighting it up but did enough Buescher and Curtis Geise (limited to 6 points overall) netting four each to get within 25-24 at the half. The third period saw the hosts outscore the Bearcats (7-6) 20-10 to assume a 44-35 edge. Junior Ryan Koester exploded for three triples all of his points for the game for the home team to lead the way, while Spencervilles Hunter Patton knocked down his two trifectas for the contest to try and help them keep pace. However, Spencerville was done in the fourth, getting shut out from the field and the foul line, as the Jays finished it off. We started to get some stops after the first period and limited them to one shot; that got us into a better offensive flow because we could run more, Elwer added. I felt physically and mentally we kind got back into the flow after a slow start; that is what you are concerned about on the back end of double-weekends, especially after a loss. For Sensabaugh, it was about his team running out of bodies. We came into the game down a couple of players in our rotation due to injuries, so our depth has been a struggle, he added. Then we had some issues with kids turning their ankles tonight, limiting their effectiveness. We simply wore down the second half.

Spencerville defenders like Coleman McCormick had their hands full with St. Johns senior Ryan Buescher, here headed to the basket for two of his game-high 18 in Saturdays 19-point Blue Jay victory at Arnzen Gymnasium.

the period, bringing the Viking lead down to just one 27-26 on the strength of another Mathew 3-pointer with just under two minutes left before the break. However, a foul on the hosts on an inbound pass with under 10 seconds left turned the ball back over to the Vikings and Mangas drained his second three of the period, sending the guests into the locker room with a 30-26 lead. Quarter number three started much like the previous with the Cats catching the early momentum; Kalida tied the game at 30-30 on a Horstman low-post bank-in and Mathew gave the home team their first lead of the game on a longrange shot from the left side to make it 33-32 two minutes into the frame. Nonetheless, it would be short-lived and the last lead that the Wildcats

enjoyed as Leipsic went on a 7-0 spurt, sparked by a Zach Kuhlman 3-pointer, to give the visitors a 39-33 advantage. Kalida made a couple of attempts to get back into the contest; Horstman made another low-post shot to cut the deficit to one at 42-41 late in the third, but as was the trend in the game, every time the home team got close, the Vikings answered back. Mangas did just that with just over a minute left in the third with a bucket from the paint. The contest was a streaky one with the opponents trading 5- or 6-point runs. The guests had their turn to start the final period, scoring six unanswered points and outscoring the Wildcats 22-11 in the final eight minutes to pull away for the win. Kalida shot 21-of-41 from the field in the game, while turning the ball over just 12

times; the Vikings in turn took care of the ball as well for the most part; giving it up just nine times and draining 21 of 48 attempts from the field and connecting on 16 of 22 from the foul line. Kalida falls to 3-10 overall and 1-2 in the PCL; Leipsic moves to 12-2 in all games and is 4-0 in league play. In the JV contest the Vikings jumped out to an early lead and maintained it throughout

to take a 34-23 victory.

Reds expecting continued success

By DAVE BONINSEGNA The Delphos Herald zsportslive@yahoo.com LIMA Success breeds interest. The Cincinnati Reds posted a 97-65 record last year and reached the playoffs before losing to the Giants 3-2 in the first round. That is a very good reason for nearly 1,300 Reds fans to turn out to greet the National Central League champions at the Lima Mall on Saturday afternoon. The Reds have won the division title two of the last three years and the group known as the Rock Star Tour consisting of my friend and Hall-of-Fame announcer Marty Brenneman; announcer Chris Welsh; All-Star second baseman Brandon Phillips; and former Red and member of the 1990 World Series team Todd Benzinger were just a few of the representatives. Gapper and Mr. Red were on hand to greet the young and old alike. The Lima stop has always been a popular one on the tour and fans came out en masse to welcome their heroes. This has been huge every year; we had a huge crowd in Columbus today and I know that we have a good crowd here today. The enthusiasm is great and I think that we are going to see a good team this year. Brenneman stated. After the press got some private time with the Rock Stars, the group headed to greet the masses for some Q-and-A time. Most of the questions were directed at the very popular Phillips. Number 4 was denied a Gold Glove last year, a honor he arguably deserved much more that the second baseman chosen, but Phillips answered the why not you? question with humility. To tell you the truth, I have no idea. I thought I was going to get one last year. I dont know how many I can get. The only thing I can do is catch the ball the only way I know how and hopefully they vote for me, Phillips commented. The 2013 edition of the Reds is looking bright: the everyday lineup is set this year with Joey Votto at first, Phillips at second, Zack Cozart at shortstop, Todd Frazier at third, Ryan Hanigan behind the plate and an outfield of Ryan Ludwick in left, Shin-Soo Choo in center and Jay Bruce in right. That is a good move (Choo for Drew Stubbs) that any team that is a contender has made this off-season, which means that anybody else that had to bat further up in the lineup can move to a position in the lineup that will be more comfortable to them. I think Choo is going to be a good leadoff hitter; now Phillips can move down to second, Cozart can bat seventh and the rest of We were winning 3-0 in games, we were missing Eric (Davis was injured in the first inning of game 4) and Billy Hatcher (he got hit by a pitch in the top of the second and was out), Jose Rijo was on the mound and we wouldnt get him back until game seven, Benzinger continued. Carey Lansford came up and if he would have hit a home run, we could have been in trouble. When he hit that pop-up, I was the happiest person on earth; I never get tired talking about it. Benzinger spends his time now in the booth as the Dayton Dragons announcer after spending a couple of years in the dugout as a coach with the Dragons. Benzinger sold the ball to a Reds fan several years ago but was sporting the 1990 World Series ring. I sold that ball five or six years ago to a big Reds fan. I never had it on display. I had in it in a box in my basement for 15 years; Im not a memorabilia guy, Benzinger added. I have my ring (which was on his finger). . They could ask $100,000 for the ring and I wouldnt give it to them. I would never sell that. You have players that are in it for me but it is good to see that the Reds have a player in Phillips that truly does care about the fans and remembers what it really is all about. This is why we do this it is for the fans; you have to show love to the fans. I try to brand myself and be a fan-friendly person, Phillips stated. One of the plethora of fans had a poignant question during the Q-and-A for the Gold-Glover, wanting to know what is first and foremost in the second basemans life and what keeps him going in the game. Family; my family is first. If it wasnt for them, I wouldnt be the man that I am today and I thank them for that everyday, he answered. If it wasnt for my parents, I dont know where I would be today. I am just thankful for the fans you guys are why we are here. We dont have to do this; I choose to do it. I am a people person and love doing this and getting out with the fans. The second baseman was awarded with a multiyear contract and stated he couldnt be happier. I am happy to be here and let the people in baseball know that I am in Cincinnati to stay and I am happy for that, Phillips added. Opening day will be a bit different this year with interleague play a commonplace attraction this season as the Reds open up the season on April 1 against Josh Hamilton and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.

Austin Arnold of Delphos met Gapper, one of the Cincinnati Reds mascots, during Saturday afternoons Reds Caravan at The Lima Mall. (Delphos Herald/Dave Boninsegna) the lineup will just fall into place. Brenneman noted. The topic of the Baseball Hall of Fame came into conversation as this writer and Brenneman lament about nearly every year; the lack of support for Martys partner in the booth for three decades, the old left-hander, the late Joe Nuxhall. However, this season, no former players were inducted as this ballot mostly comprised of players from the steroid era. That didnt bother me; I think that it added credibility to the Baseball Hall of Fame. You had Bonds, Clemens and Sosa; those that we said to have juiced, Brenneman continued. I think that Craig Biggio got the short end of the stick; he should have gotten in. Next year will be a banner one with the players that will be on the ballot: you got Greg Maddox, Tom Glavine and Frank Thomas and Biggio will be a holdover, so you could see four or five players in next year. It could be the biggest year we have seen in sometime. There was a lot of talk about the role of Aroldis Chapman; the fireballer is slated to join the starting rotation but the Hall-of-Fame broadcaster noted that it is a chance the Reds are going to have to take. Its a crapshoot, I think everybody professes a lot of confidence that he will make a successful transition and I think thats the approach you have to take, Brenneman remarked. The rotation is looking to be 1-to-4 Johnny Cueto, Mat Latos, Bronson Arroyo and Homer Bailey. Reds general manager

Walt Jocketty has said he plans to start spring training with the left-handed Chapman moving from closer to the starting rotation. Last year, Chapman compiled a 1.51 ERA and was 38-of-43 on save chances. In 71 innings, he struck out 122 and walked 23. Former Red and the man that has the distinction for catching the final out of the 1990 World Series, sealing the Reds 4-game sweep of the mighty Oakland As, Benzinger, said he sees similarities between this years defending Central Division championship team and his 1990 World Champions. What we have now is a team that won the division in 2010 and 2012 and should be a team thats a little ticked off and maybe playing with a chip on their shoulder. When you have a good team who is playing a little angry, thats a great combination; lets hope the Reds of 2013 are like that, Benzinger noted. Benzinger lamented about the 90 Series, where no one gave the Reds any chance of beating the As. Going into the first game of the World Series, we wanted to see in batting practice how far McGwire and Conseco would hit the ball and they were hitting them into the Reds seats regularly, he recalled. You know how rare that happened in a game but after Eric Davis hit that 3-run homer off Dave Stewart in the first inning, people started saying hey, this could be something. The headlines in newspapers around the United States after game one Davis Slays Goliath.

(Continued from Page 7) timeout with 5:33 left in the first quarter. At the Miami bench, he raised his left hand in recognition. When I saw it, just all those emotions came streaming back from all the great things we did here, Allen said. Ill always be a Celtic in my mind. Allen entered the game about a minute after the tribute and was booed when he touched the ball. The boos came down again when he took two free throws missing the first, making the second three minutes into the second quarter. Now the Celtics have neither member of their starting backcourt from the past five seasons, Allen and Rondo. Rondos injury puts this team and the rest of the guys in a position to be ready to step up, Pierce added. Sundays win was a perfect example. We showed we are capable.
NOTES: It was Miamis first game in Boston since it won Game 6 of the Eastern Conference finals behind James 45 points. James and Chris Bosh each had 16 rebounds for the Heat. The last time the Celtics played consecutive double-overtime games was on March 11 and 13, 1951. LAKERS 105, THUNDER 96 LOS ANGELES Kobe Bryant had 21 points, 14 assists and nine rebounds, Steve Nash added seven of his 17 points in the final 5 1/2 minutes, and the Lakers held off the NBA-leading Thunder. Pau Gasol scored 16 points in a reserve role as the Lakers picked up the most impressive victory of their thoroughly unimpressive season, coolly maintaining a small lead down the stretch of their second straight win after a four-game skid. Los Angeles had lost nine of its last 11 against the powerful Thunder, including four of five in the clubs second-round playoff series last spring. Kevin Durant scored 35 points and Russell Westbrook had 17 points, 13 assists and nine rebounds for the roadweary Thunder, who finished their longest trip of the season at 3-3. KNICKS 106, HAWKS 104 NEW YORK Carmelo Anthony tied a franchise record with nine 3-pointers, then converted a go-ahead, threepoint play with 12.5 seconds left to cap a 42-point night and lead the Knicks to the victory. The Hawks shot a season-high 60 percent from the field but had their threegame winning streak snapped when Josh Smith, burned on Anthonys basket, missed a 3-pointer on Atlantas final possession. Amare Stoudemire and J.R. Smith each had 18 points for the Knicks, who

The Associated Press CHICAGO Nick Leddy scored 2:45 into overtime and the Chicago Blackhawks improved to 6-0 the best start in franchise history with a 2-1 win over the Detroit Red Wings on Sunday night. After taking a cross-ice pass from Viktor Stalberg, Leddy fired from the left circle and beat Detroit goalie Jimmy Howard with a shot that slipped just under his glove. Detroits Johan Franzen connected early in the third to tie the game at 1 and set up overtime. Duncan Keith scored a power-play goal in the first period for Chicago, and Corey Crawford finished with 29 saves in his fifth start in six games. Howard, who has started all five of Detroits games, made 25 saves. The Blackhawks started 5-0 in 1971-72 Hall of Famer Bobby Hulls final season in Chicago and

matched it on Saturday night with a 3-2 win in Columbus.

SHARKS 4, CANUCKS 1 SAN JOSE, Calif. Joe Pavelski had two goals, Patrick Marleau scored again though only once and the Sharks stayed undefeated. Joe Thornton also scored for the Sharks, who improved to 5-0-0. Antti Niemi made 23 saves as coach Todd McLellan earned his 200th career victory. Marleau scored two goals in each of the first four games of the season, becoming the first NHL player do pull of that trick since 1917. Alexandre Burrows scored for the Canucks, who had a three-game unbeaten streak end. Cory Schneider also stopped 23 shots. Ryan Clowe tied a Sharks record with eight penalties, all in the first two periods, and a career-high 35 penalty minutes. The game became feisty even before the drop of the puck as Clowe and Burrows got into it at center ice and it remained that way. JETS 5, ISLANDERS 4, OT WINNIPEG, Manitoba Evander Kane scored 1:59 into overtime to give the Winnipeg Jets a come-from-behind victory. Kane, who also had an assist, tapped the puck in past goalie Evgeni Nabokov after a rebound from a long Olli Jokinen shot. Alexei Ponikarovsky, Bryan Little, Dustin Byfuglien and Alexander Burmistrov also scored for Winnipeg (3-11), which was down 4-2 midway through the third period. The Jets have now won three games in a row. John Tavares had a goal and two assists for the Islanders (2-3-0). David Ullstrom, Matt Moulson and Mark Streit

also scored for New York. Frans Nielsen had a pair of assists. BLUES 5, WILD 4, OT ST. LOUIS Vladimir Sobotka scored from close range at 2:16 of overtime to give St. Louis a victory.

Joel Ward had a goal and an assist, John Erskine also scored, and Michal Neuvirth made 22 saves for the Capitals, who had opened with four consecutive losses for the first time since the 1993-94 season. Marcus Foligno and Tyler Ennis scored, and Ryan Miller made 27 saves for the Sabres, who have lost three straight after opening the season with a pair of wins. PENGUINS 2, SENATORS 1, SO OTTAWA Sidney Crosby, Evgeni

Malkin and James Neal scored in the shootout to give the Pittsburgh Penguins a victory against the Ottawa Senators. Neal also scored in regulation to help the Penguins snap a two-game skid.

Mr. and Mrs. Kevin Siefker

By DAVID GERMAIN The Associated Press LOS ANGELES The CIA thriller Argo continues to steamroll through awards season, winning the top honor for overall cast performance at the Screen Actors Guild Awards. SAGs lead-acting honors Sunday went to Jennifer Lawrence for her role as a troubled widow in a shaky new relationship in the lostsouls romance Silver Linings Playbook and Daniel DayLewis as Abraham Lincoln in the Civil War epic Lincoln. Anne Hathaway of Les Miserables and Tommy Lee Jones of Lincoln won the supporting-acting honors. It was a brisk, businesslike and fairly bland evening as the actors union handed out honors to a predictable lineup of winners who generally had triumphed at earlier Hollywood ceremonies or past SAG shows. The SAG cast win came a day after Argo claimed the top honor from the Producers Guild of America, whose winner often goes on to claim best picture at the Academy Awards. Argo also was a surprise victor two weeks ago at the Golden Globes, where it won best drama and director for Ben Affleck. The awards momentum positions Argo for a rare feat at the Feb. 24 Oscars, where it could become just the fourth film in 85 years to be named best picture without a nomination for its director. To me this has nothing to do with me, it has to do with the incredible people who were in this movie, said Affleck, who also stars in Argo and accepted the SAG prize alongside his cast. Affleck plays CIA agent Tony Mendez, who masterminded the daring rescue of six U.S. embassy workers in Iran after the 1979 hostage crisis erupted. The Americans were brought out of Iran masquerading as crew members of a fake Hollywood sci-fi movie scouting locations. A directing nomination at the Oscars usually goes hand

in hand with a best-picture win. When Affleck was snubbed for a directing slot, awards analysts initially were counting Argo out for the best-picture Oscar, along with Kathryn Bigelows Zero Dark Thirty and Tom Hoopers Les Miserables, which also missed out on directing nominations. Only once in modern times has a film won best picture without a directing nomination, with 1989s Driving Miss Daisy. The other two times came in the shows early years, at the first Oscars in 1929 with Wings and for 1932s Grand Hotel. But Argo has proven a resilient crowd-pleaser, dominating at awards shows since then over Steven Spielbergs Lincoln, which leads the Oscars with 12 nominations. The next playoff round before the Oscars is Saturdays Directors Guild of America Awards, where Affleck, Bigelow, Spielberg and Hooper all are nominated, along with Ang Lee for Life of Pi. The winner there typically goes on to triumph with directing and best-picture Oscars, but only Spielberg and Lee are nominated for both the Directors Guild and Oscar prizes this time, throwing the awards picture into a muddle. Sundays acting prizes solidify those categories, though. Silver Linings star Lawrence won a Golden Globe and has become one of Hollywoods hottest talents, with part two of her blockbuster franchise, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, due out in November. Now I have this naked statue that means some of you even voted for me, and that is an indescribable feeling, Lawrence said after explaining she earned her SAG card at age 14 by filming a spot for MTV. Hathaway won for her role as a doomed single mother forced into prostitution in the adaptation of the stage musical based on Victor Hugos epic novel. Her win came over four past Oscar recipients Sally Field, Helen Hunt, Nicole Kidman and Maggie Smith.

The Herald 11

Tomorrows Horoscope
By Bernice Bede Osol
TUESDAY, JANUARY 29, 2013 You need not be fearful of having more than one major objective in the year ahead. Even if others might be unable to handle multiple ventures simultaneously, you should be able to do so with grace and aplomb. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- An involvement where you share a mutual interest with another should work out quite smoothly today in some dealings you have with a person who is very difficult to please. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -The timing could be unusually good for you to make a request of someone who doesnt readily grant favors. Point out to this person what would be in it for him or her. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -By cleaning out the basement, attic or garage, you might discover some gems that you put aside in the past and forgot about. Be sure to open all those old boxes. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- A social gathering could pair you with someone whom youve been very eager to approach. Dont be hesitant to introduce the reason why you wanted to get in touch. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Certain financial or commercial matters can be successfully concluded to your satisfaction if youre willing to take the time and effort to do so. Dont coast when you can run. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -Someone older or more experienced might point out a new direction for you. It could be some of the best advice youve received in a long time. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Youre in a favorable cycle for profiting from situations initiated by someone else. Be on the alert for anything different that sounds enticing. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Even if some of your present expectations seem to be a bit outlandish to some of your friends, they really arent that far-fetched from your perspective. Your view is clearer than theirs. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -Something extremely constructive could develop through the efforts of another, which will give you the assistance you need to get ahead. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -Youre likely to get an opportunity to cultivate a new friendship. It might even be with someone whom youve been anxious to get to know better. This could be the start of something beautiful. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- A little extra effort where your career is concerned could put you out in front of the pack. Be assertive and conscientious when pursuing your objectives. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- If you allow a past educational experience to guide you, everything should work out quite beautifully in your dealings with someone who is very difficult to please. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 30, 2013 Dont be surprised if, in the year ahead, you find yourself going through a sifting process regarding the objectives you are setting. If you want to be successful, you must be extremely selective about your aims. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Guard against an inclination to do things the hard way, especially where your work is concerned. If youre using an ineffective procedure, try something different. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Even if your hunches are usually correct, if they are more negative than positive, dump them as quickly as you can. Your imagination may be playing tricks on you. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Its time to phase out something that isnt living up to its potential in terms of profits. The longer you stay with it, the more money it will end up costing you. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- When pursuing an objective, take care not to walk over others. It might end up costing you far more than just time and money. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -Dont make the mistake of thinking that aggressiveness is the same as vision. Before imposing any of your ideas on your co-workers, make sure theyre feasible. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -Watch out for any little changes that may have been made to something without your or anybody elses knowledge. They could alter matters greatly. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- It isnt likely that youll be proud of your efforts if youre more interested in getting things done than you are in getting them done right. Quality over quantity is your mantra, today. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Although you will be a keen observer, unfortunately your focus is likely to be more on others failings than on their many positive qualities. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- It would be a huge mistake on your part to spend funds you have earmarked for something essential. If youre not disciplined in the handling of money, youll never get ahead. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Remember the adage: If it isnt broke, dont try to fix it, and your life will be much easier. Dont needlessly ask for trouble. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Youre not likely to look good in the eyes of others if you try to shirk or displace blame. Spend your energy making corrections, not accusations. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Unless you pay close attention to what youre spending, you wont be a good manager of your money. Dont shell out what you cant afford to lose.

Answers to Saturdays questions: Miners paid for vitamin-C rich potatoes with gold during the 1897 Alaskan Klondike Gold Rush. The passion flower got its name from symbolic connection to the passion of the Christ, which was first noted in the 16th century by Spanish missionaries in South America. They believed the flowers 10 petals and sepals represented the 10 disciples and the crucifixion; its three prominent

stigmas, the nails used to crucify Jesus; its five red stamens, the wounds; and it showy corona of filaments, the crown of thorns. Todays questions: Which capital city is the highest in the world? How long did it take 9,700 participants to find 510,000 hidden candy eggs in the biggest Easter egg hunt on record? Answers in Wednesdays Herald.

Underclassmen attendants include, front from left, junior Ali Eickholt, sophomore Megan Lambert and freshman Brooke Gable; and back, junior Lucas Maag, sophomore Tyler Roby and freshmen Austin Agala-Montano. Miniature attendants are Jocelyn Langhals and Cole Knippen.
