Habern new commander at DAV


BY JIM LANGHAM
DHI Media Correspondent
news@timesbulletin.com

VAN WERT Veteran Robert


Habern is assuming responsibility as
commander of Disabled American
Veterans, Chapter 54, of this area.
His office will be located at 111
N. Shannon St., Van Wert. Habern
noted that the Disabled American
Veterans (DAV) is a non-profit organization dedicated to the service of
our nations injured heroes.
DAV is here to help you and to
ensure that you are not alone on your
road to recovery. We are dedicated to
a single purpose: empowering veterans to lead high-quality lives with
respect and dignity, noted Habern.
We accomplish this by ensuring that
veterans and their families can access
the full range of benefits available to
them. We fight for the interests of
Americas injured heroes on Capitol
Hill and educate the public about the

great sacrifices and needs of veterans


transitioning back to civilian life,
added Habern.
Habern entered the U.S. Army
on June 21, 1970, and served until
Dec. 31, 1993. Two of his best-known
assignments came out of his work with
the 3rd U.S. Infantry at Fort Myer,
Virginia. During that time, he was
involved in numerous White House
ceremonies and Changing of the
Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown
Soldier. Habern served at the Tomb
of the Unknown Soldier for a year on
a 24-hours on, two-days off rotation.
He noted that during the 24 hours
he was on duty, he lived in the amphitheater at the tomb. When he wasnt
on actual guarding of the tomb, he
would prepare his uniform and continue to train.
The White House was fine but
after six months there, it kind of
wears out, said Habern.

fall in love. When the summer comes to an end, Sandywho is going back to Australiafrets that they may never
meet again, but Danny tells her that their love is only the beginning. After her parents decided not to return to
Australia, Sandy enrolls at Rydell High School where her Danny, a greaser, is a member of the T-Birds. Danny
is forced to maintain his bad-boy attitude in front of his pals, upsetting Sandy. See if this unlikely pair can truly
find love. Above: Kenickie (Kurt Wollenhaupt, left, sings about his dream car Greased Lightning while fellow

OKLAHOMA
CITY
(AP) Every day when
Dr. Rosslyn Biggs goes to
work as a federal government veterinarian she is
reminded of her mother,
one of 168 people killed in
the Oklahoma City bombing and honored Sunday
on the 20th anniversary of
the deadliest terrorist attack
on U.S. soil until Sept. 11,
2001.
Biggs has the same job
once held by her mother, Dr.
Margaret L. Peggy Clark,
as a food safety veterinarian
at the U.S. Department of
Agriculture. She interacts
often with some of the people who worked with and
recall her mothers professionalism.
I remember her spirit
and her dedication, Biggs
said as she and other family
members gathered around
an empty chair adorned
with flowers in a field of
empty chairs designed to
memorialize the victims of
the April 19, 1995, bombing.
Its wonderful to see
that people still remember
and still care, Biggs said.

Todays Highlight in History:
On April 20, 2010, an explosion on the Deepwater Horizon
oil platform, leased by BP, killed 11 workers and caused a
blow-out that began spewing an estimated 200 million gallons
of crude into the Gulf of Mexico. (The well was finally capped
nearly three months later, on July 15.)
On this date:
In 1314, Pope Clement V, the first of the Avignonese popes,
died at Roquemaure, France.
In 1792, France declared war on Austria, marking the start
of the French Revolutionary Wars.

Northern Virginia, and eventually became general-in-chief of
the Confederate forces.)
In 1863, President Abraham Lincoln signed a proclamation
admitting West Virginia to the Union, effective in 60 days (on
June 20, 1863).

In 1889, Adolf Hitler was born in Braunau am Inn, Austria.


In 1912, Bostons Fenway Park hosted its first professional
baseball game while Navin Field (Tiger Stadium) opened in
Detroit. (The Red Sox defeated the New York Highlanders
7-6 in 11 innings; the Tigers beat the Cleveland Naps 6-5 in
11 innings.)
In 1914, the Ludlow Massacre took place when the
Colorado National Guard opened fire on a tent colony of
striking miners; about 20 (accounts vary) strikers, women and
children died.
In 1945, during World War II, allied forces took control of
the German cities of Nuremberg and Stuttgart.
In 1968, Pierre Elliott Trudeau was sworn in as prime minister of Canada.
In 1972, Apollo 16s lunar module, carrying astronauts
John W. Young and Charles M. Duke Jr., landed on the moon.
In 1988, gunmen whod hijacked a Kuwait Airways jumbo
jet were allowed safe passage out of Algeria under an agreement that freed the remaining 31 hostages and ended a 15-day
siege in which two passengers were slain.
In 1999, the Columbine High School massacre took place
in Colorado as two students, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold,

STATE/LOCAL

Politicians working on lowering college costs


COLUMBUS (AP) Ohios governor
and key state legislators agree that college
affordability is a priority, although they are
offering different approaches.
The Columbus Dispatch reports that universities are likely to feel the pinch after
House Republicans and Gov. John Kasich
agree on a plan.
Kasichs proposed budget capped tuition
hikes at 2 percent over two years, while
legislators want a flat $200 cap on increases
at four-year schools, with a $100 cap on twoyear and regional campuses. The House also
would ban course overload fees for students

who want to take more than the typical full


loads.
A Miami University official said the
schools high cost is still a value because of
its education results. David Creamer, senior
vice president for finance and business services, Friday asked legislators to go back to
Kasichs 2 percent cap proposal.
Rep. Mike Duffey, R-Worthington, who
headed the finance subcommittee on higher
education, said a flat dollar rate is fairer,
while a percentage cap would allow large
tuition increases at expensive schools.
If affordability is the No. 1 issue right

now in higher education, and I think it is,


then we should focus on those who are less
expensive, Duffey said.
Miami University, at $24,674, has the
highest net cost among the nations fouryear public institutions, according to the
U.S. Department of Educations College
Affordability and Transparency Center.
The Dispatch reports that Ohio State ranks
ninth in that measure, with the University of
Cincinnati 16th, Kent State 19th and Ohio
University 22nd. The net cost includes tuition, fees, book and room and board, without
grants and scholarships.

Kasich getting more serious


about presidential bid

Red Cross launches new app


INFORMATION SUBMITTED
FINDLAY The American Red Cross announces
the release of its new Emergency App which gives
people instant access to weather alerts, life-saving
information and ways to contact family and friends in
one free, easy-to-use app for mobile devices.
This all-inclusive app provides expert
advice on what to do in case of disasters
such as hurricanes, earthquakes, floods,
tornadoes, home fires, wildfires and more.
The free Emergency App is available in
app stores for smartphones and tablets by
searching for the American Red Cross or by
going to redcross.org/apps.
When an emergency occurs, its
important for families to stay safe and
connected, said Todd James, executive director of the North Central Ohio
Chapter. Our Emergency App does that.
It covers 14 different types of disasters and lets
users customize more than 35 emergency alerts so
that they will know what to do no matter where they
live or travel.
Family Safe is a new, unique feature that allows
the app user to notify loved ones who are in an area
affected by an emergency or disaster. The recipient
can instantly see the alert details as well as specific
what to do now steps, and then respond with either
Im safe or Im not safe. This feature works even
if the recipient has not downloaded the Emergency
App.
The Emergency App has many features, including:

Some university officials argue that the


rankings reflect lack of state funding, which
has dropped well below 2000 levels.
State Senate President Keith Faber,
R-Celina, has challenged universities to find
ways to lower overall student costs by 5 percent. He said hes been happy with responses
so far from the universities.
Faber expects that the Senate will increase
higher-education funding in its budget work.
Higher education has taken a back seat on
the budgetary bus too long, Faber said. If
they show efficiency, they should be entitled
to some additional state resources.

Emergency first aid information for situations such


as heart attacks, heat-related emergencies as well as
water safety information;
Preloaded content so users can access guidance
from Red Cross experts even without mobile connectivity;
A single map with open Red Cross shelter locations
and weather information;
A home fire section with detailed prevention and safety tips as well as Red Cross
After the Fire information;
A Make a Plan feature to help families
plan what to do and where to go if a disaster
strikes; and
The ability to easily toggle between
English and Spanish.
In addition to smartphones and tablets,
this feature will be available on the new
Apple Watch and can be downloaded from
the Apple Watch App Store starting April 24.
Red Cross apps have been downloaded more
than 6 million times and nearly 400 million alerts
have been sent since the launch of the first app in
2012. In the past year alone, more than 350 million
pages were viewed and the Im Safe feature was
accessed just over 550,000 times across all preparedness apps.
While apps can help prepare someone for disasters,
its important to note that they are not substitutes for
training. People can take Red Cross First Aid and
CPR/AED courses so theyll know what to do in case
help is delayed. They can get information and register
at redcross.org/TakeAClass.

CINCINNATI (AP) Ohio Gov. John Kasich said Sunday


hes getting more and more serious about jumping into the
2016 presidential race, a contest in which he said he would
be the most experienced candidate.
Kasich just made visits to
the key Republican primary
states of New Hampshire and
South Carolina, and said he
has a pretty heavy schedule
ahead.
I have more experience
than anybody in the field, said
Kasich, a former veteran congressman in his second term as
governor. Thats really what
I have that stands out. I dont
just talk about what I want to
do; I can tell people what Ive
Kasich
done.
But he stopped short of
announcing his plans on NBCs Meet the Press, which greeted him with a clip of his 1999 announcement on the show that
he would explore a 2000 presidential bid that he later dropped.
Kasich said Sunday all his options are still on the table. He
said his family would be a consideration in making his decision as well as determining what the Lord wants him to do.
Kasich said as House budget committee chairman, he
helped balance the budget, and as governor has brought Oho
out of a total mess. He also called Ohio a microcosm of
America.
Ohio Democratic Party chairman David Pepper said

Star Wars design team teases


Force Awakens themes
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP)
Star Wars: The Force
Awakens is about a generational transfer in more ways
than one. Set 30 years after
the events in Return of the
Jedi and coming to theaters
just over 30 years after the
film first debuted, that idea
remained top of mind for the
films brand new production
design team, fans learned
at Star Wars Celebration on
Saturday.
In other words, they
didnt have to reinvent the
wheel. They just had to
update it a bit.
Rick Carter, an Academy
Award winner for Lincoln
and Avatar, was joined
on stage by his co-production designer Darren
Gilford (TRON: Legacy),
Doug Chiang (Star Wars:
Episode I - The Phantom
Menace), and Industrial
Light + Magic Art Director
Christian Alzmann (A.I.
Artificial Intelligence) to
discuss their work together
on the seventh film in the
Star Wars saga.
While the artists couldnt
reveal any specifics about
the plot, they did treat a
packed auditorium to a few
revelations about modernizing aesthetics of everything
from the X-wing fighters to
the Millennium Falcon.
Seven comes after six.
It doesnt come after three,
said Carter, referring to the
poorly received prequels.
This is a period piece that
were bringing forth. Were
always going back to go forward.
Indeed, at the insistence
of director J.J. Abrams, the
team relied on the original art of illustrator Ralph
McQuarrie to inform the

aesthetic of The Force


Awakens.
The early trailers for the
film, out Dec. 18, reveal a
dirty, grungier world. Droids
and ships are beat up and
run down in the desert landscape, much like they were
in the original films.
We wanted to play tribute to Ralph McQuarrie.
When we got stuck on something, we would go back
and look at what hed done
before. Its come full circle,
said Chiang.
Alzmann said there was
even talk about creating
What Would Ralph Do
bracelets for the design team.
They had access to the
extensive Lucasfilm archives
to answer even the minutest
questions. Sometimes that
backfired. When Abrams
told the team that he wanted
the Millennium Falcon to
look identical to the way
it did in the originals, they
realized there were actually
three versions.
In the end, using elements
of all three, they created the
quintessential fan version
of what the ship should be.
Even the designers themselves saw themselves as part
of this generational shift in
ushering George Lucass original vision to the big screen.
Gilford, whose father
illustrated the Star Wars
cover of a 1977 issue of
magazine Cinefantastique,
said that even working out of
Pinewood Studios in London
connected the production to
the past.
There he encountered
many people who had either
worked on the original films
or had relatives who did.
See FORCE, page 10

CLEVELAND (AP) Ringo Starr


was ushered into the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame with a little help from one of
his famous friends.
The mop-topped drummer who kept
the beat for the Beatles, Starr was
inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame as a solo artist on Saturday
night during a ceremony jammed with
scintillating performances and touching
moments.
Starr was the last of the Beatles to be
inducted for his individual work, getting
in after bandmates Paul McCartney,
John Lennon and George Harrison. He
was always the fourth Beatle John,
Paul, George and Ringo but now
hes been immortalized as a frontman.
Starr was inducted along with Green
Day, underground-icon Lou Reed,
Joan Jett and The Blackhearts, soul
singer-songwriter Bill Withers, guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double
Trouble, The Paul Butterfield Blues
Band and The 5 Royales.
The 74-year-old Starr was inducted by McCartney, who said he could
always count on Starr to have his back
on every song.
You dont have to look with Ringo,
McCartney said. Hes there.
Starr, amazingly fit and looking 20
years younger than his age, then stepped
to the podium and said: My name is
Ringo and I play drums as if anyone
didnt know.
He was then joined on stage by
Eagles guitarist Joe Walsh on It Dont
Come Easy before McCartney came
out to play bass, the two living Beatles
jamming again, to A Little Help From
My Friends.
The evening concluded, as it always
does, with an all-star jam, this time to I
Wanna Be Your Man.
With plenty of punk attitude and
energy, Green Day thrashed its way into
the Rock Hall.

DELPHOS

LOS ANGELES (AP) Even in its debut weekend, Kevin


Jamess Paul Blart sequel couldnt outpace Furious 7.
The reigning box office champion might have slowed
from its blockbuster debut, but Furious 7 maintained first
place for the third weekend in a row with an estimated $29.1
million, according to box office tracker Rentrak on Sunday.
This brings the high-octane action movies domestic total
to a staggering $294 million, well above the $202.8 million
that Fast & Furious 6 had earned at the same point in the
cycle in 2013. The film crossed the $1 billion mark Friday.
The film has set a new standard for the potential for
box-office in the pre-summer month of April and has truly
become part of movie folklore with its record setting numbers, strong reviews, spectacular word-of-mouth and of
course the outpouring of support for late star Paul Walker,
Rentraks Senior Media Analyst Paul Dergarabedian said.
Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 came in a close second with an
estimated $24 million. While the PG-rated comedy didnt
perform as well as the first films $31.8 million opening in
2009, it did surpass Sonys modest expectations. Also, it only
cost $30 million to produce.
Its a great result. Its going to be very profitable for
us and a big success, Sonys President of Worldwide
Distribution Rory Bruer said.
It was something that Kevin really wanted to do and we
wanted to do it with him, he said. Kudos to Kevin for working so hard in promoting the film.
Dergarabedian said Blarts opening proves that if you
give the people what they want, you can make a tidy profit.
Meanwhile, the low-budget, social media themed thriller
Unfriended took third place with $16 million sixteen
times its production budget.
With Furious 7 topping the charts again and a strong
debut for Unfriended, Universals President of Domestic
Distribution Nick Carpou marveled how both of films are so
successful at both ends of the spectrum.
When you find success you look to repeat them, he said
of Universals partnership with Blumhouse on microbudget
horror films. It works.
Unfriended is the 11th microbudget film to open above
$15 million for Blumhouse. Other successes include Ouija,
The Purge series and The Boy Next Door.

The Two Of Us. Stevie Wonder said


he would often hear Withers music and
say, I wish I could have written that
song.
Withers was humbled Wonder would
be the one to induct him.
Its like a lion opening the door for
a kitty cat, he said.
Wonder performed Aint No
Sunshine with Withers sitting next to
him on stage enjoying every second.
Withers, who has rarely performed in
public over the past three decades, then
helped sing the Lean On Me chorus
with John Legend.
Jett couldnt keep her rough rocker
edge for long. After being introduced,
Jett, the black-leathered girl you might
not bring home to meet your mom, was
moved to tears.
I tried not to cry and be tough, she
said, her black mascara starting to run.
Jett opened the show with a rip-roaring version of Bad Reputation and
was joined by Foo Fighters frontman
and former Nirvana drummer Dave
Grohl for a blistering Cherry Bomb,
one of her hits with The Runaways,
a band that broke down barriers for
women in rock.
Sadly, Vaughan died in 1990 at the
height of his blossoming career in a
helicopter crash. Armed with his signature Stratocaster, the Texas bluesman
was an unstoppable force on six strings.
John Mayer called it the honor of a
lifetime to induct Vaughan, whom he
called the ultimate guitar hero.
Stevie used his guitar to lead him out
of town, said Mayer, who later traded
licks on Texas Flood with Gary Clark
Jr. He gave me hope because heroes
give you hope. While Jimi Hendrix
came down from outer space, Stevie
came up from below the ground.
HBO will broadcast the event on
May 30.

The

The Bay Area trio, which formed


as teenagers and helped make punk
rock radio friendly in the 1990s, briefly turned the star-studded event into
one of their high-intensity shows with
a powerful set of some of their most
memorable hits.
From the opening power chords of
American Idiot, Billie Joe Armstrong,
Mike Dirnt and Tre Cool had the crowd
at Clevelands Public Hall bouncing and
dancing in the aisles.
Brash and belligerent, Green Day
blasted onto the music scene just as
Seattles grunge sound was growing
stale. The band borrowed riffs from
punk pioneers like The Stooges and Sex
Pistols, flavored them with some power
chords and pop hooks and helped redefine a genre.
Reed was both daring and provocative as a songwriter and lyricist, pushing
boundaries with ballads about forbidden
subjects like drugs, prostitution and suicide. Reeds songs like Walk On The
Wild Side, Vicious and Heroin
remain vibrant today. Although he died
in 2013, Reed continues to influence a
young generation of musicians touched
by his rebel ways.
Patti Smith remembered Reed the
poet and recalled being at Rockaway
Beach when she got the news of his
death. She rode the subway back to
New York City, Reeds city.
People were crying on the street,
Smith said. You could hear his voice
coming out of cafes. Everyone was
playing his music. Thank you, Lou,
for brutally and benevolently injecting
poetry into your music.
Withers was inexplicably left off
the halls ballot for years, perhaps an
unfortunate oversight. But the 76-yearold, who walked away from the music
industry in the 1980s, is now part of
musical royalty with a catalog of timeless songs like Lean On Me and Just

According to exit polls, audiences for Unfriended were


60 percent female and 74 percent under the age of 25.
Rounding out the top five were holdovers Home and
The Longest Ride, with $10.3 million and $6.9 million,
respectively.

Mark Hamill said he was


suspicious of J.J. Abrams
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP)
Mark Hamill knew he
had to say yes when George
Lucas told him about the
plans to move forward with a
new Star Wars trilogy.
Its not like a choice.
Its like I was drafted,
Hamill told a massive crowd
Saturday night at Star Wars
celebration of his decision
to reprise his role as Luke
Skywalker in the Star Wars:
The Force Awakens.
Could you imagine if for
some reason I said I dont
think I want to do it? I would
have all of you surrounding my
house like villagers, angry villagers with lightsabers instead
of torches, joked the 63-yearold Star Wars veteran.
Hamill admitted he was
caught off guard when Lucas
invited him to lunch. When
Hamills wife surmised that perhaps there was a new film in the
works, Hamill laughed. Lucas
had told him specifically that he
was done making Star Wars
movies after the prequels.

He assumed Lucas was


going to announce a 3-D
release or roll out another
box set of the films, laughing
about the number of versions
that have been made available.
Still, his interest was
piqued when Lucas disinvited
Hamills daughter. He knew
that meant it must be big.
When things started coming together, Hamill said he
was cautiously optimistic
about J.J. Abrams, the chosen director for The Force
Awakens.
I was a little suspicious
because he was a Star Trek
guy, said Hamill, laughing.
The actor quickly clarified
that he likes Star Trek.
It just seems odd, he said.
He went on to compliment
Abrams for his inclusiveness.
Abrams, Hamill noted, is also
the first Star Wars director
to be borne out of true fandom of the original films.
He feels the way you feel
in terms of wanting practical
effects. Real sets, he said.

Big 3 lead Cavaliers past


Celtics 113-100 in Game 1
Associated Press
CLEVELAND More than hour
after his first playoff game with LeBron
James and Kevin Love, Kyrie Irving
made a statement more profound than
anything he did on the floor.
We, Irving said, are the Big 3. We
have really great players on this team
but we set the tone.
Tone set.
Irving scored 30 points
in his playoff debut, James
added 20 in his first postseason game with Cleveland in
five years and Love shook off
a slow start to record a double-double,
leading the Cavaliers to a 113-100 victory in Game 1 over the Boston Celtics
on Sunday.
Irving made five 3-pointers and
Love, another postseason rookie, added
19 points 13 in the second half
and 12 rebounds
It was Clevelands first home playoff
game since May 11, 2010, when the
Celtics won Game 5 and James left the
floor to some boos from Cavaliers fans.
He departed for Miami two months later
but hes home now, all is forgiven and
Cleveland is aiming to end a championship drought dating to 1964.
Isaiah Thomas scored 22 points to
lead the seventh-seeded Celtics. They
will try to even the best-of-7 series in
Game 2 on Tuesday night.
The Cavs built a 20-point lead in
the third quarter, let the Celtics get as
close as six and then finished the quarter
with a 9-0 run capped a 3-pointer by

James Jones to take a 15-point lead


into the fourth. Boston climbed within
10 in the final 12 minutes, but Love
made a crucial 3-pointer with 3:32 left
to slow Boston.
In the days leading up to the opener,
James expressed confidence Irving and
Love would be ready for the playoffs
but added you never know, perhaps
the superstars way of motivating his teammates. Irving
and Love looked like playoff
veterans as Clevelands Big
3 combined for 69 points.
Irving said four days of
preparation helped the Cavs
get ready and while he and Love didnt
say they were nervous, they both
seemed relieved to have the opener
behind them.
Love started slowly, going 2 of 11 in
the first half. But he was assertive in the
third quarter and James liked what he
saw in a player whose game has been
scrutinized all season.
James came in with more playoff experience 158 games than
Bostons entire roster, an inequality that
seemed to favor the Cavaliers. However,
the young Celtics werent overwhelmed
on the bigger stage or intimidated by
Clevelands towel-waving fans sporting
T-shirts that said, All In, the teams
postseason slogan.
Boston led by eight in the first quarter but got careless with the ball and
finished with 14 turnovers 13 after
the first quarter.
With Clevelands lead slipping away
in the third quarter, thanks to a 14-0 run

by the Celtics, reserve James Jones hit


a turnaround jumper and then made a
3-pointer at the horn to give the Cavs a
91-76 lead.
Jones gives the Cavs experience and
another offensive weapon.
James (1,026) passed Michael Jordan
(1,022) for ninth place for career postseason assists.
HAWKS 99, NETS 92
ATLANTA Kyle Korver scored
21 points, including five 3-pointers, and
the top-seeded Atlanta Hawks held off
the Brooklyn Nets 99-92 in Game 1 of
the Eastern Conference playoff series
Sunday night.
The Hawks led nearly the entire
game and pushed the margin as high
as 16 points but the Nets kept coming
back. Finally, Jeff Teague dropped in
a floater coming off the left wing, giving Atlanta a 95-89 lead. Joe Johnson
missed a 3-pointer from the corner for
Brooklyn and Teague made a pair of
free throws with just under a minute
remaining to essentially seal it.
Teague and DeMarre Carroll scored
17 points apiece.
Eighth-seeded Brooklyn finished 22
games behind the Hawks and slipped
into the playoffs on the final day. But,
with Johnson and Brook Lopez each
scoring 17 points, they didnt look overmatched by a team that won the season
series 4-0 and earned a No. 1 seed for
the first time since 1994.
Game 2 is Wednesday night in
Atlanta.

Hunter homers for Twins


in 7-2 win over Indians
By MIKE COOK
Associated Press

MINNEAPOLIS Torii Hunter feels good about


his swing and so do the Minnesota Twins.
Hunter hit his first home run for Minnesota since
2007, helping Trevor May and the Twins beat the
Cleveland Indians 7-2 Sunday.
Im just happy to get the home run out of the
way in a Twins uniform in Target Field, said
Hunter, flashing his charismatic smile.
Hunter, who rejoined the Twins this year after
five seasons with the Los Angeles Angels and two
with Detroit, hit a 3-run homer in the sixth off former Minnesota pitcher Anthony Swarzak for a 7-1 lead.
He has been working with hitting coach Tom
Brunansky to firm up his swing and make consistent
contact.
Following a 1-5 opening trip, Minnesota won four
out of six at home against Kansas City and Cleveland.
After the start we had, to come back here and protect our home field this week and win a couple series
against teams in our division, thats a good thing for us,
said manager Paul Molitor.
Making his second start since coming up from the
minors when Ricky Nolasco went on the disabled list,
May (1-1) allowed one run and four hits in six innings.
With Ervin Santana serving a drug suspension, May is
bidding to remain in the rotation when Nolasco returns
from elbow inflammation.
Cleveland scored on Michael Brantleys RBI single
in the first and Carlos Santanas ninth-inning home run

Associated Press
HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C.
Jim Furyk won the RBC Heritage on
Sunday for his first PGA Tour title in
five years, making birdies on both playoff holes to outlast Kevin Kisner.
Furyk was ahead by a stroke when
Kisner birdied the 72nd hole to force
the playoff, the fourth in the last six
tournaments at Harbour Town.
Furyk won the 2010 event on the
first playoff hole after Brian Davis
called a 2-stroke penalty on himself for
moving a loose impediment in a hazard
during his backswing.
On the first extra hole this year,
Kisner rolled in a second straight birdie
putt on the 18th. But Furyk, the 2003
U.S. Open champion, answered with a
birdie to keep the playoff going.
After Kisner missed his birdie try
on No. 17, Furyk sank a 12-foot putt
for his 17th career PGA Tour win. He
dropped his putter and punched the air
in celebration.
Furyk shot an 8-under 63 and Kisner
had a 64 to finish at 18-under 266.
Third-round leader Troy Merritt was
at 16 under after a 69. Defending champion Matt Kuchar (68) was at 14 under
and Masters winner Jordan Spieth (70)
was eight shots back.
GREATER
GWINNETT
CHAMPIONSHIP
DULUTH, Ga. Olin Browne won

off J.R. Graham, the 100th home run of Santanas bigleague career.
Cleveland has scored just 13 runs in its last five
games.
I always want us to have 15 hits and nine runs,
manager Terry Francona said. Weve got to fight
through it and until you really get rolling, find a way to
manufacture, find a way to win by one.
TJ House (0-2) gave up five runs and seven hits
in 5 2/3 innings, leaving him with a 14.14 ERA. He
allowed six earned runs on six hits in 1 1/3 innings in
his first start a week ago.
Minnesota loaded the bases in the second on a
walk, double and hit batter. Oswaldo Arcias sacrifice fly, Eduardo Escobars RBI single and Shane
Robinsons run-scoring grounder, which was misplayed
by shortstop Jose Ramirez, built a 3-0 lead.
STRUGGLING SWINGERS
Seven of Minnesotas hitters entered hitting .229
or less four no better than .200. Cleveland had five
hitters batting .220 or lower, including four under .200.
TRAINERS ROOM
Indians: RHP Carlos Carrasco had his scheduled
start today pushed back to Tuesday. He left his last start
April 14 after being hit in the jaw by a line drive off the
bat of Melky Cabrera.

Jeffcats, Vikings split baseball twin-bill


By JIM METCALFE
DHI Media Sports Editor
jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com

LEIPSIC Saturdays afternoon


baseball doubleheader involving
Jefferson at Leipsic saw typical Ohio
spring weather all rolled into one.
It started with temperatures in the
70s and very little wind and ended up
with much-cooler temps and a gusty
wind blowing in toward home plate.
The Wildcats held off a late Viking
charge for a 5-4 first-game triumph,
only to see a complete game by Leipsic
lefty Tyler Selhorst help pace a 9-5
victory in the nightcap and a split at
Charles H. Bennett Park.
The first contest was a pitchers duel as Jeffersons Ryan
Bullinger held down the Vikings
on three hits, five walks and a
run in the first five innings and
Leipsics Nick Schey gave up
four hits and five walks in 6 2/3
innings; all five runs he ceded
were unearned due to four errors.
Jefferson took a 2-0 edge in the top of
the third. With two down, Gaige Rassman
got aboard on an error and advanced on a
wild pitch. After a walk to Gage Mercer,
a wild pitch moved Rassman up and
Mercer stole second. Both scored as Jacob
Pulfords hard grounder hugged the thirdbase line into left field.
The Vikings halved their deficit in
the home fourth on a 1-out walk to
Grant Rader, a line double to left by
Ross Schroeder and an RBI knock to
left by Rob Laubenthal. On a double-steal effort, Laubenthal burgled second but Schroeder was nabbed at home
by alert shortstop Jace Stockwell.
Leipsic had a grand chance for at
least a tie in the home fifth as Schey
got on via a throwing error, advanced
on a groundout and moved up on a wild
pitch. After Justin Ellerbrock walked,
he stole second; however, alert catcher
Nick Fitch caught Schey too far off
third for a big out.
The Wildcats got three crucial and
eventually game-winning runs in the
top of the seventh, again with two outs.
Stockwell walked and Rassman was
hit by a pitch. Mercer got aboard on an
error, with Stockwell coming around to
score, and the other base-runners moved
up on another error on the play. After
Pulford was intentionally walked to
load the sacks, back-to-back free passes
to Bullinger and Fitch plated Rassman
and Mercer, consecutively. That finished Schey after 118 pitches (71 for
strikes) and brought in Schroeder, who
retired Brandan Herron for the final out.
Leipsic made it interesting in the
home seventh on a bases-loaded hit bat-

ter (J. Ellerbrock, scoring Devin Hiegel)


and three walks, including one with the
bases loaded to John Berger (Schey).
That brought Mercer in to pitch (for
reliever Herron). Alex Ellerbrock
bounced out to plate Pierce Henry and
put the tying and winning runs at third
and second. However, Mercer fielded
Raders nibbler, nearly stumbled but
threw him out to end the first contest.
In the second game, Selhorst threw
98 pitches (77 for strikes), did not walk
a batter, fanned seven and ceded six hits.
All five runs were unearned.
The Red and White went up 4-0 in the
top of the first. With one out, Rassman
beat out an infield nibbler past the pitcher;
an error on the play put him at second.
Mercers grounder was booted,
plating Rassman. An out later,
a throwing error on Bullingers
grounder left both runners safe.
Fitchs fly ball was dropped for
a 2-base error, scoring Mercer,
and both remaining runners
scored as Herron blooped a hit
just beyond the reach of diving second
baseman Schroeder in short center.
Leipsic finally answered with a
5-spot in the bottom of the third versus starter Mercer, using a walk and
five hits. One of those was a wellplaced 2-run double down the rightfield line by Schroeder (scoring Henry
and Berger) and another was a 2-run
bloop to the same spot by Laubenthal
(A. Ellerbrock and Schroeder) to put the
Vikes in front for good at 5-4.
The hosts put their final four tallies
on the board in the home fifth batting around against three pitchers:
Brett Mahlie (1 out), the lefty Rassman
(1 out) and Tyler Shrider (1 out). They
used two hits, including an RBI single
by Hiegel (plating Schroeder); three
walks, the third with the bases loaded
to Schey (Laubenthal); and an error on
Henrys grounder (Rader and Hiegel).
The Wildcats made it 9-5 in the top
of the sixth on a 2-out throwing error on
Kurt Wollenhaupts grounder, a steal, a
wild pitch on a third strike (Jacob Boop)
and a hit to left by Stockwell.
For the most part, we got solid
pitching outside of a couple of innings.
We were inconsistent at the plate; we
would have a big inning and then the
bats went silent, Delphos coach Doug
Geary observed. In the second game,
we had the big first inning and then
couldnt add to it. We got a split today
against a good team on the road. We had
four games this week and the two today;
a very tough week. With the Northwest
Conference games coming, we are in
good position pitching-wise.
Leipsic coach Darren Henry was
most concerned with his defense.

We arent great defensively but we


are usually more solid that we were
today; we usually only have an error
or two a game. Our pitchers didnt give
up an earned run and really did their
jobs, Henry added. Offensively, we
have had a string of facing pitchers that
throw in the 80s and we had lost some
confidence at the plate. It took us a
while today but when we had that 5-run
third in the second game, you could tell
we loosened up quite a bit.
Both teams are back in action today;
Jefferson (3-9) at Spencerville and
Leipsic (6-4) at Cory-Rawson.

Do just
one thing
by Danny Seo

When you receive a large envelope in the mail


made from Tyvek,
the strong synthetic polyethelyene fibers, dont toss it in
the trash. Because
Tyvek envelopes are
water-resistant and
they are nearly impossible to tear (but
can be easily opened
with scissors), there
are myriad ways
to reuse them. One
idea is to reuse the
envelopes to store
your important documents, photos and
other sensitive printed pieces. The water resistance will
protect them, and
the natural UV light
barrier of the material will prevent fading. Just seal it with
packing tape to make
sure the Tyvek protects your precious
documents. You can
write whats in the
envelope on the outside with a permanent marker.

sion, anxiety and anger issues. Occasionally he has explosive episodes


where hell throw things and punch
or kick inanimate objects.
Recently things escalated. He was
angry with himself after getting angry
with me for disturbing his process
while making dinner, and he threw a
potted plant across the room.
Im not an idiot. I know these are
serious issues. Every friend or family member of mine who knows him
believes hes a good guy deep down.
But they all tell me to leave him. I
talked with him after the incident.
He called a therapist, set up an appointment and has promised he wont
drink anymore.
Im struggling with the judgment
Im feeling from my friends and
family. Dean is a man I see a future
with, and I dont want to give him up
when hes finally seeking treatment.
My friends are concerned about me
getting hurt, either in the crossfire or
when I try to stop him from hurting
himself. Am I an idiot for not walking
away? -- NOT READY TO WALK

self for a while.


He may have many fine qualities,
and the fact that he is willing to seek
help for his explosive temper says a
lot for him. Thats why Im suggesting you and Dean pay a visit to his
therapist together and ask whether it
would be better if you live apart until
he learns to recognize and manage his
triggers. It may give him the incentive to work harder on his problems
-- because it appears he has more than
a few to deal with.
DEAR ABBY: Recently my
11-year-old son, Jackson, was at a
neighbors house playing with another boy a few years younger. The boy
told my son he plays with him only
because his parents make him, and he
said he isnt Jacksons friend and never wanted to be.
Jackson came home upset, and I
was heartbroken for him. I comforted
him and told him at least the boy was
honest. I advised Jackson to find another friend to play with.
Im at a loss on what to do next,

DEAR MAMA BEAR: Tell the


parents what happened if they ask
again for Jackson to come over. While
children say all kinds of things in the
heat of the moment, it would be better
for your son if you found some other
activities for him -- group activities
involving sports or science or the arts
-- for at least a while.
While its understandable your
neighbors son may resent being
forced to play with Jackson, it is
equally understandable that Jackson
might be reluctant at this point to
have anything more to do with him.
Dont push it.

Annual checkup is useful for catching disease early

DEAR DOCTOR
K: Im 73 and in great
health. Do I really
need to have an annual physical?
DEAR READER:
Lets start by defining great health.
I would define it as
having no known
chronic
(ongoing)
illnesses. However,
most people your
age have at least one
chronic illness, such
as high blood pressure. People with
chronic illnesses need
to be checked out at
least once a year, and
usually more often.
Even if they dont
have
any chronic illri
b
Fa cation & Welding Inc.
nesses, I ask my patients to come in for
a checkup every year.
That includes asking
and answering some
questions, a physical examination and
some screening tests.
The
questions
probably are the most
important part of an
annual checkup. For
example, I remember
a man in his 50s who
had no chronic con-

ditions and exercised


every day. He had
a healthy diet -- he
was a vegan. When I
asked him if he had
been having any bothersome symptoms, he
answered no, but
hesitated just briefly
before saying it. So I
pushed him: Even a
mild symptom thats
not very bothersome,
but that is something
new?
He replied: Well,
sometimes I get this
tingling sensation in
my feet. It comes and
goes.
That gave me an
idea, and influenced
what I did on the
physical
examination.
There is not a lot
of evidence that a
complete physical examination is valuable.
In fact, an analysis of
14 trials that included
more than 180,000
patients did not find
that a yearly general
health checkup decreased the risk of
death or illness.
I always examine

the heart, lungs, abdomen and skin. Even


this limited examination is of unproven value. But Ive
discovered irregular
heart rhythms, mild
asthma and the occasional skin cancer.
But when a person has a symptom,
parts of the physical
examination can be
extremely valuable.
In my patient with the
tingling sensations, I
took a tuning fork and
whacked it to make it
vibrate. I asked him
to close his eyes and
to tell me when he
felt the vibrations
touch his skin. When
I placed the tuning
fork on his ankles, he
said nothing.
During an annual
checkup, it is important for adults to get
several types of immunizations every so
often and a flu shot
every year. I checked
my patients immunization record and
gave him a flu shot.
Then it was time
to order tests. The

Dr. Anthony Komaroff

On
Health
screening tests that I
prescribe during an
annual checkup didnt
turn up any problems
in this person, this
year, but they are effective in catching
(and sometimes curing) diseases in an
early stage, such as
various types of cancer and heart disease.
I added a blood
test for vitamin B12
to the screening tests
in my patient. His
symptom of tingling,
his inability to feel
the vibration of the
tuning fork, and the
fact that he was a
vegan made me suspect that his vitamin
B12 levels were low
-- and they sure were.
Fortunately, vitamin
B12 pills prevented
what could have been

permanent damage to
his spinal cord.
So, Id advise you
not to skip an annual
visit to your doctor.
You dont need to
have every nook and
cranny of your person
probed every year.
But you do need certain questions asked,
screening tests performed and immunizations given.

The best home face-lifts for making a good first impression


Is your house making a good first
impression? If the door and other areas around the front are looking like
they need work, it could put off potential buyers, not to mention visitors,
according to ShopSmart, the shopping magazine from the publisher of
Consumer Reports.
But its easy to upgrade your
houses curb appeal without spending a bundle. Start by clearing away
clutter, wash the windows and power-wash siding, if needed. ShopSmart
asked home stagers (who prep properties to maximize sale prices), designers, color experts and real estate pros
for the best under-$50 fixes that can
make a big impact.
ShopSmart suggests the following
ideas:
-- Freshen up the front door: $40
or less. Go for the unexpected, says
Debbie Zimmer, director of the Paint
Quality Institute. A deep, almost
eggplant purple works well with white
or pale blue siding and on contemporary wood-stained homes, she says.
Another hue that she loves is yellow
-- think mustard or pale yellow, not
school bus. It complements classic
red brick or painted siding, she says.
And red is a great choice for traditional white siding and black shutters.
Think barn, not candy apple. When
picking door colors, consider your
siding, roof and neighbors homes to
ensure a harmonious look. If youre

going bold on your entryway, take a


more muted approach on the garage
door, especially if both face the street.
That keeps the focus on the front door.
-- Get a new mailbox and numbers: $10 and up. Bland or worn-out
house numbers and mailboxes can
be replaced easily to bring the front
of your house back into focus. If the
ones you have are functional but dated or mismatched, consider investing
in a can of spray paint. Unless its
dented, theres no need to replace a
mailbox, says Rick Harris, a real estate broker for Coldwell Banker in
Ashland, Oregon. DeAnna Radaj, a
design pro based in Charlotte, North
Carolina, painted her mailbox, house
numbers and even the planters on her
front porch. I picked the color of the
trim of the house -- a warm brown
-- and went with a metallic paint that
matched it, she says.
-- Switch the doormat: $10 and up.
You can use a doormat to add a pop
of color to your entry, Zimmer says.
But if you have a door in a bold hue,
keep the house numbers, mailbox and
doormat in a timeless style and stick
with black, which wont compete
with the color. Go for textured types
that catch dirt from shoes.
-- Refresh the hardware: $15 and
up. If your hardware is in shoddy condition, replacements will make a huge
difference. A new doorknob starts
around $30; a kick plate ranges from

$15 to $30, depending on the metal.


Door knockers start around $13. Buy
hardware thats in sync with the architectural style of your house.
-- Lighten up: $15 to $50. Nothing
warms up an entry and makes it feel
welcoming like a few lights, especially once twilight falls. To brighten a porch, doorway and walkway,
Radaj uses outdoor-use LED lights.
ShopSmarts tests have shown that
they instantly brighten, even in frigid
temperatures, and can last for years. If
you already have the fixture, its just a
matter of switching the bulb.
-- Hide a shabby porch or stairs:
$45 to $50 (stair runner or treads). If
you havent gotten around to painting
your front porch or deck, try throwing an outdoor area rug over it. Plunk
down a bench and some plants, and
no one will notice. A runner made for
outdoor use can disguise a not-sopretty stairway.

Bombing
(Continued from page 1)
Former President Bill Clinton, who was president
when the attack occurred, spoke at Sundays service at the
Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum, where the
Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building once stood. Memorial
officials estimated that 2,500 people attended the observance.
Oklahoma City, you have chosen well, Clinton said.
For 20 years you have honored the memories of your loved
ones. You have inspired us with the power of renewal.
Clinton said the city has recovered from the terrorist
attack in the face of mad, crazy people who think that
differences are all that matter.
The whole world needs you now, the former president
said in reference to other deadly terrorist attacks that have
occurred around the world.
The service started with a 168-second moment of
silence to honor each of those who died. It concluded
about 90 minutes later with survivors and tearful relatives
of the dead reading the names of those killed.
This was a place of unspeakable horror and tragedy,
said Frank Keating, who completed his first 100 days as
Oklahomas governor the day before the attack. How
some evil individual would do what he did is unforgiveable and absolutely unimaginable.
The agony was consistent. The agony appeared never
to end, Keating said.
After the service, LaDonna Battle and her family were
standing between two of the 168 metal and glass chairs
that now stand as a testament to those who were killed. The
two chairs were inscribed with the names of her parents,
Calvin and Peola Battle, who were arranging to receive
Social Security benefits when the bomb detonated.
Were completing a journey with steel hearts. Were
rebuilding our lives. LaDonna Battle said.
Timothy McVeigh, an Army veteran with strong anti-government views, carried out the bombing as revenge for the
deadly standoff between the FBI and Branch Davidians
in Waco, Texas, on April 19, 1993 exactly two years
before Oklahoma City.
McVeigh was convicted on federal murder and conspiracy charges in 1997 and executed in 2001.
His Army buddy, Terry Nichols, was convicted on
federal and state bombing-related charges and is serving
multiple life sentences in a federal prison.
In a statement, President Barack Obama thanked first
responders who risked their lives after the bombing, law
enforcement and prosecutors who brought the perpetrators
to justice and ordinary men and women in Oklahoma for
their resilience.
