2011 and April 13, 2012as compensation for hisposition as the sheriff,but the attorneys arguethat the Ohio RevisedCode “speaks for itself”that he does not have topay the money back. TheAG’s lawsuit contendedthat the law “permits apolitical subdivision torecover monies from anyformer public official ofthe political subdivision,

the amount of compensa-tion paid to that formerpublic official from thedate of the former publicofficial’s suspension tothe date the former pub-lic official pleads guilty oris found guilty of anyfelony with which the for-mer public official wascharged.”

Kimpel’s attorneysseek dismissal of the law-suit, arguing that while

he was indicted on Sept.21, 2011 in AuglaizeCounty on a charge ofsexual battery and ac-cepted the suspensionfrom office, the sexualbattery charge wasdropped as part of theplea bargain and it wasthe sexual battery chargeunder which the suspen-sion was obtained andunder which theAG’s Of-fice is suing for the re-coupment of his salary.

Kimpel is also askingfor “reasonable attorneyfees and expenses andcosts and for any otherrelief….to which (Kim-pel) may be entitled.”Kimpel’s attorneys alsoseek a jury trial in thecase.

A telephone confer-ence on the case has beenscheduled for Feb. 7 at8:30 a.m. in ShelbyCounty Common PleasCourt. While JudgeJames Stevenson is listedas the Judge of record,his office told the SidneyDaily News they are un-certain if he will recusehimself from the caseuntil the telephone con-ference is held. He hadpreviously recused him-self from Kimpel’s crimi-nal case.

Kimpel was foundguilty of one count ofunauthorized use of acomputer, cable orte lecommunicat ionsproperty, a fifth degreefelony, and was sen-tenced to two years pro-bation at his sentencingon June 8, 2012.

former Shelby CountySheriffs Mark Schemmeland Doug Schlagetter;Dr. Fred Haussman, whoprovides medical care forShelby County Jail in-mates, and Debra Lee, aShelby County Jailnurse. Several “John andJane Does” are alsonamed who will be iden-tified during discoveryprocedures. In additionto being named in theirofficial capacity, the fol-lowing are being sued in-dividually: Kimpel,Stevenson, Bauer, Wag-ner, Kincaid,Wertz, Frye,Henry, Schemmel,Schlagetter, Haussmanand Lee.

The lawsuit involves acase in which Trapp,along with Vance Short,were indicted on chargesstemming from the mur-der of Trapp’s brother,Gregory, on May 21,1998. The case had gonecold until reopened bythe Shelby County Sher-iff ’s Office and Mont-gomery County ColdCase Unit, resulting inindictments of Trapp andShort on Jan. 24, 2011.

Short was later con-victed and sentenced oncharges of conspiracy tocommit aggravated mur-der and complicity tocommit aggravated bur-glary. He was sentencedto 15 years in prison.

Trapp, who wascharged with the aggra-vated murder of hisbrother, was releasedfrom jail on a medicalfurlough in December2011 after Lenhart de-scribed his medical con-dition as “lifethreatening.” Haussmanhad worked with Trappon an outpatient basisand had Trapp placed inthe intensive care unit atWilson Memorial Hospi-tal. He was later re-leased and returned tojail.

Trapp is reportedly adiabetic with high bloodpressure who had lostboth legs to amputations.

Trapp reportedly wasthe beneficiary of his

brother’s $200,000 lifeinsurance policy.

In January 2012,mur-der charges againstTrapp were dismissedwith prejudice, allowingfor them to possibly bere-filed in the future.Thelawsuit makes severalclaims and is filed on thebasis of the following:

• Deprivation of CivilRights under the Fourth,Fifth, Eighth and Four-teenth Amendments ofthe U.S. Constitution

• False arrest• Malicious prosecu-

tion• Negligence/Reck-

less/Wanton/Willfull Dis-ability pursuant to theOhio Revised Code

• Intentional Miscon-duct, Negligence, Med-ical Malpractice/MedicalClaims (Deliberate Indif-ference to Serious Med-ical Conditions).

• Intentional Inflic-tion of Emotional Dis-tress and Conspiracy.

Trapp’s attorney,Dwight Brannon ofBrannon and AssociatesInc. of Dayton, noted inthe lawsuit that Trappfirst discussed the casewith his office on Jan. 7of this year and the filefrom Trapp’s public de-fender, now ShelbyCounty Prosecutor TimSell, was provided onJan. 10.

“So a complete investi-gation and review hasnot been even close tocomplete.This complaintis filed in order to pre-serve the Statute of Lim-itations.” It was notedthat Trapp “appears tobe subject to disability.”

The lawsuit asks forcompensatory damagesin an amount greaterthan $25,000, punitivedamages in an anamount greater than$25,000 and costs of ac-

tion, including reason-able attorney fees. Thesuit also seeks to havethe defendants payTrapp’s medical bills.

Among may otherclaims, the lawsuit al-leges that Trapp was in-c a r c e r a t e d“unnecessarily” for “al-most a year” on an “un-constitutional(ly) highbond of $1,000,000.”

The lawsuit claimsthat both Kimpel andBauer used prosecutionof the case to promotetheir campaigns for re-election and that theAG’s office and cold casedetectives were “at-tempting to maintainand request funding fortheir cold case programby this prosecution aswell as others upon in-formation and belief.”

The suit also claimsthat a “delay in investi-gation, prosecution, in-carceration, indictmentand then dismissal with-out prejudice one yearlater” were a violation ofTrapp’s civil rights andConstitutional rights.

Shelby County Prose-cutor Tim Sell, who rep-resents the county andlocal officials in their of-ficial capacities, was thepublic defender at thetime of Trapp’s indict-ment and subsequent in-carceration. Whencontacted Friday, he saidthat because he repre-sented Trapp previously,there would be a conflictof interest with his in-volvement in the casenow.

“I will be talking tothe (Shelby County)Commissioners aboutthis lawsuit and whattheir options are with re-gard to counsel,” he said.“Obviously, I can’t givethem legal advice aboutthe merits of the case.”

DP&L.,VectrenEnergyDelivery and the Sidneywater department wereable to secure all utilityservices to the building.

“There was an explo-sion in the processing sideoft the plant, said Assis-tant Fire Chief CameronHaller. “The plant’s sprin-kler system kept the firein check and we extin-guished it with a handline when we arrived, hesaid”

Haller also said thesprinkler system andsafety procedures estab-lished by the businesskept the building fromburning to the ground.

“When something likethis happens, I meanyou’re really unpreparedfor it,” said Terry Stotler,plant supervisor. “It’skinda like a house fire. Imean you get caught bysurprise and you’re doingeverything you can tomake sure everyone’ssafe.”

Stotler said he is notsure where the plant willgo, since there are a lot ofelements to consider. Thecompany, owned by IVEXProtective Packaging Inc.,is headquartered in La-chine, Canada.

IVEX operates twoplants in Sidney, with atotal of 45 employees.

Records show Sidneyfirefighters have previ-ously responded to twofire alarms from the loca-tion in 2012 — in Marchand July — and two fireswere reported there inMarch of 2010.

OBITUARY POLICY

BY RACHEL [email protected]

Shelby County will play hostduring the 30th annual OhioMock Trial District Competition,with two Sidney teams, oneLehman team and three Belle-fontaine teams going head-to-head in the courtrooms ofdowntown Sidney Friday.

The teams will take over theJuvenile Court, Common PleasCourt and Municipal Courtcourtrooms, with two trials setfor each during the day.

Throughout the state, about3,500 high school students frommore than 180 schools in 31counties will be competing Fri-day, making this year’s districtcompetition the largest since2006. The mock trial competitionis sponsored by the Ohio Centerfor Law-Related Education. It isOhio’s largest high school aca-demic competition.

Two of the three Sidney HighSchool teams that competed inlast year’s district level won theirrespective competitions andmoved on to the regional compe-titions.

Each year, the Center writesan original case based on a cur-rent constitutional issue that isdesigned to educate studentsabout their rights as well as helpthem develop critical thinking,reading, writing, public speakingand listening skills. Studentstake on the roles of witnesses andattorneys, while local legal pro-fessionals throughout the statevolunteer their time to serve asjudges, competition coordinatorsand team advisers.

Each team consists of five to11 students who are required toprepare both prosecution and de-fense cases and participate intwo trials against differentteams.

This year’s case will have the

students analyze a person’s rightunder the Fifth Amendment re-garding improper confessions.Dakota Allen, a ficticious highschool sophomore, is suspected ofsetting a school fire that resultedin a maintenance worker’s death.While investigating, the policeengage in a lengthy interrogationthat includes trips to the scene ofthe crime and the victim’s home.Allen makes a statement claim-ing responsibility for the fire andis charged with murder andarson. She later recants her con-fession, alleging the statementswere coerced by the police.

District winners will advanceto the regional competition Feb.22. The state competition will beMarch 7-9 in Columbus, and thechampionship round will be heldat the Ohio Statehouse. The win-ning team will represent Ohio atthe National High School MockTrial Championship in Indi-anapolis, Ind., in July.

Mock trial set for Friday

(AP) —You don’t have toturn your smartphoneoff at the ProvidencePerforming Arts Center— at least not if you’resitting in the “tweetseats.”

The theater is nowsetting aside a smallnumber of seats forthose who promise tolive-tweet the perform-ance. Twitter usersmight offer impressionsof the set, music or cos-tumes, or lines from theshow that resonate withthem.

At a recent staging ofthe musical “Million Dol-lar Baby,” even a fewcast members weretweeting from back-stage.

A growing number oftheaters, including someon Broadway, have beenexperimenting in recentyears with tweet seatsand other real-time usesof social media. Some in-sist theaters should re-main free ofsmartphones, but otherssay theaters can’t affordnot to engage the digitalgeneration.

WIND CHILLWARNING – Issued whenthe wind chill temperature is forecast tobe -25°F or lower.

How do winter storms form?Winter storms derive their energy

from the clash of two air masses ofdifferent temperatures and moisturelevels.Winter storms usually formwhen an air mass of cold, dry,Canadian air moves south and inter-acts with a warm, moist air massmoving north from the Gulf of Mexico.The point where these two air mass-es meet is called a front. If cold airadvances and pushes away thewarm air, it forms a cold front.Whenwarm air advances, it rides up overthe denser, cold air mass to form awarm front. If neither air massadvances, it forms a stationary front.How is snow formed?

Snow is commonly formed whenwater vapor undergoes deposition,which is when water vapor changesdirectly to ice without first becoming aliquid, high in the atmosphere at atemperature of less than 32°F andthen falls to the ground.How do blizzards form?

A blizzard is a long-lasting snow-storm with very strong winds andintense snowfall.You need threethings to have a blizzard: cold air atthe surface, lots of moisture and lift.Warm air must rise over cold air.What are snowflakes?

Snowflakes are made of ice crys-tals. Each snowflake is six-sided and

made of as many as 200 ice crystals.Snowflakes form in clouds where thetemperature is below freezing. Theice crystals form around tiny bits ofdirt that has been carried up into theatmosphere by the wind. As the snowcrystals grow, they become heavierand fall toward the ground.

Why is snow white?Bright snow blinds us with its

gleaming white color because itreflects beams of white light. Insteadof absorbing light, snow's complexstructure prevents the light from shin-ing through its lattice formation. Abeam of white sunlight entering asnow bank is so quickly scattered bya zillion ice crystals and air pocketsthat most of the light comes bouncingright back out of the snow bank.Whatlittle sunlight is absorbed by snow isabsorbed equally over the wave-lengths of visible light, thus givingsnow its white appearance. So whilemany natural objects get their blue,red and yellow colors from absorbinglight, snow is stuck with its whitecolor because it reflects light.

SANTAMARIA,Brazil (AP)— A fast-moving fire roaredthrough a crowded nightclub insouthern Brazil early Sunday,within seconds filling the spacewith flames and a thick, toxicsmoke that killed more than230 panicked partygoers whogasped for breath and fought ina stampede to escape.It appeared to be the world’s

deadliest nightclub fire inmorethan a decade.Firefighters responding to

the blaze at first had troublegetting inside the Kiss night-club because bodies partiallyblocked the club’s entryway.Witnesses said a flare or

firework lit by band membersstarted the blaze in SantaMaria, a university city ofabout 260,000 people. Officialsat a news conference said thecause was still under investi-gation— though police inspec-tor Sandro Meinerz told theAgencia Estado news agencythe bandwas to blame for a py-rotechnics show and thatmanslaughter charges could befiled.Television images showed

black smoke billowing out ofthe Kiss nightclub as shirtlessyoung men who had attendeda university party joined fire-fighters using axes and sledge-hammers to pound at windowsand hot-pink exterior walls tofree those trapped inside.Bodies of the dead and in-

jured were strewn in the streetand panicked screams filled

the air as medics tried to help.There was little to be done; of-ficials said most of those whodied were suffocated by smokewithin minutes.Within hours a community

gym was a horror scene, withbody after body lined up on thefloor, partially covered withblack plastic as family mem-bers identified kin.Outside the gym police held

up personal objects — a blackpurse, a blue high-heeled shoe

— as people seeking informa-tion on loved ones lookedcrowded around, hoping not torecognize anything beingshown them.Guido Pedroso Melo, com-

mander of the city’s fire de-partment, told the O Globonewspaper that firefightershad a hard time getting insidethe club because “there was abarrier of bodies blocking theentrance.”Teenagers sprinted from the

scene after the fire began, des-perately seeking help. Otherscarried injured and burnedfriends away in their arms.Many of the victims wereunder 20 years old, includingsome minors.“There was so much smoke

and fire, it was complete panic,and it took a long time for peo-ple to get out, there were somany dead,” survivor LuanaSantos Silva told the Globo TVnetwork.

Fire claims 230 lives

‘No budget, no pay’ advancesWASHINGTON (AP) — In an earlier

era, a move like the one engineered byHouse GOP leaders to pass a “no budget,no pay” measure probably would havebeen stopped in its tracks.But with Congress’ approval ratings in

the gutter, House lawmakers pushedaside questions about fairness and con-stitutionality and tacked the idea on toan unpopular, must-pass measure to in-crease the government’s borrowing cap.The measure temporarily would with-

hold pay from any member of the Houseor Senate whose chamber doesn’t pass abudget this year. The Senate is expectedto approve it in the coming week, butonly after leaders make clear they think“no budget, no pay” is rife with flaws andis not going to be repeated.The proposal is before the Senate be-

cause the House breezed past objectionsthat the idea is unconstitutional becauseit could “vary” the pay of lawmakers in vi-olation of the 27th Amendment to the

Constitution. The House ignored con-cerns that the measure is unfair to mem-bers who are in the minority and arepowerless to determine whether a budgetpasses or not.Nearly unmentioned was the prospect

that withholding lawmakers’ pay favorswealthy members over those of moremodest means and could, in theory, at-tract more affluent candidates betterable 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 you’renot a millionaire, don’t run becausethere’s no guarantee you’ll be paid,’” saidRep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y.For these reasons and more, the

idea went nowhere in the last congres-sional session. But it was embracedabout a week ago by House GOP lead-ers such as Speaker John Boehner ofOhio as they struggled to avoid a po-tential market-crippling default on

government obligations.The proposal is a slap at the Demo-

cratic-controlled Senate, which hasn’tpassed a budget since 2009. Republicansadvanced the measure as a one-year ex-periment rather than a permanent law.The logic behind “no budget, no pay”

goes like this: Passing a budget is thecore responsibility of Congress, so whyshould lawmakers get paid if they don’tdo their main job?“The hardworking people that I repre-

sent wouldn’t be paid if they didn’t showup and they didn’t do their job,” said Rep.Michael Fitzpatrick, R-Pa. “And thisplace should operate no differently.”For Republicans,much of the appeal of

the measure was that it was a rare op-portunity to cram something down theSenate’s throat. Two years of polarizingbattles over issues big and small have leftlittle good will between the GOP-runHouse and the Democratic-controlledSenate.

New health caremarkets on the wayWASHINGTON (AP) — Buying your own health insurance

will never be the same.This fall, new insurance markets called exchanges will

open in each state, marking the long-awaited and much-de-bated debut of President Barack Obama’s health care over-haul.The goal is quality coverage for millions of uninsured peo-

ple in the United States.What the reality will look like is any-body’s guess — from bureaucracy, confusion and indifferenceto seamless service and satisfied customers.Exchanges will offer individuals and their families a choice

of private health plans resembling what workers at majorcompanies already get. The government will help many mid-dle-class households pay their premiums, while low-incomepeople will be referred to safety-net programs they mightqualify for.Most people will go online to pick a plan when open enroll-

ment starts Oct. 1. Counselors will be available at call centersand in local communities, too. Some areas will get a storefrontoperation or kiosks at the mall. Translation to Spanish andother languages spoken by immigrants will be provided.When you pick a plan, you’ll no longer have to worry about

getting turned down or charged more because of a medicalproblem. If you’re a woman, you can’t be charged a higher pre-mium because of gender. Middle-aged people and those near-ing retirement will get a price break: They can’t be chargedmore than three times what younger customers pay, comparedwith six times or seven times today.If all this sounds too good to be true, remember that noth-

ing in life is free and change isn’t easy.Starting Jan. 1, 2014, when coverage takes effect in the ex-

changes, virtually everyone in the country will be required bylaw to have health insurance or face fines. The mandate ismeant to get everybody paying into the insurance pool.Obama’s law is called the Affordable Care Act, but some

people in the new markets might experience sticker shockover their premiums. Smokers will face a financial penalty.Younger, well-to-do people who haven’t seen the need forhealth insurance may not be eligible for income-based assis-tance with their premiums.

State of emergency declaredCAIRO (AP)—Egypt’s pres-

ident declared a state of emer-gency and curfew in three SuezCanal provinces hit hardest bya weekend wave of unrest thatleft more than 50 dead, usingtactics of the ousted regime toget a grip on discontent over hisIslamist policies and the slowpace of change.Angry and almost scream-

ing, Mohammed Morsi vowedin a televised address on Sun-day night that he would nothesitate to take even more ac-tion to stem the latest eruptionof violence across much of thecountry. But at the same time,he sought to reassure Egyp-

tians that his latest moveswould not plunge the countryback into authoritarianism.“There is no going back on

freedom,democracy and the su-premacy of the law,” he said.The worst violence this

weekend was in the Mediter-ranean coastal city of Port Said,where seven people were killedon Sunday, pushing the toll fortwo days of clashes to at least44. The unrest was sparked onSaturday by a court convictionand death sentence for 21 de-fendants involved in a masssoccer riot in the city’s mainstadium on Feb. 1, 2012 thatleft 74 dead.

Holocaust items put on displayJERUSALEM (AP) —

When Stella Knobel’s familyfled World War II Poland in1939, the only thing the 7-year-old girl could take withher was her teddy bear. Forthe next six years, the stuffedanimal never left her side asthe family wandered throughthe Soviet Union, to Iran andfinally the Holy Land.“He was like family. He was

all I had. He knew all my se-crets,” the 80-year-old saidwith a smile. “I saved him allthese years. But I worriedwhat would happen to himwhen I died.”So when she heard about a

project launched by YadVashem, Israel’s nationalHolocaust memorial and mu-seum, to collect artifacts from

aging survivors, she reluc-tantly handed over herbeloved bear Misiu, Polish for“teddy bear,” so the memoriesof the era could be preserved.“We’ve been through a lot

together, so it was hard to lethim go,” said Knobel, who waswidowed 12 years ago and hasno children. “But here he hasfound a haven.”On Sunday, Knobel’s tat-

tered teddy bear was on dis-play at Yad Vashem, one ofmore than 71,000 items col-lected nationwide over thepast two years. With a miss-ing eye, his stuffing burstingout and a red ribbon aroundhis neck,Misiu was seated be-hind a glass window as part ofthe memorial’s “Gathering theFragments” exhibit.

YOUR HOROSCOPE

DR. WALLACE: I amenrolled in apublic speakingclass at the Uni-versity of Iowa,and I reallyenjoy this class.I’ve always beennervous aboutgiving oral re-ports and that’swhy I’m takingthis class. I amscheduled togive my firstspeech in frontof the class in a couple ofweeks. I know my mate-rial about being kind andcompassionate to animalsbecause I want to becomea veterinarian, but I feeluncomfortable about theformal presentation.I know that you speak

to a lot of different audi-ences, and I would like tohear any good advice youcould give me about pub-lic speaking. I really enjoythis class and want to domy best, and I really needan A in this course. —Abby, Davenport, Iowa

ABBY: Indeed, I have

been asked to speak be-fore manygroups, rangingin size from 20 toover 2,000 in theaudience.But re-gardless of thegroup’s size, I’malways a bitnervous beforespeaking. How-ever, once thespeech is under-way, the butter-flies go away.I also enjoyed

a public speaking classone summer at the Garyextension of IndianaUni-versity. The class helpedprepare me to speak withnervousness, but withoutfear. Here are the tech-niques I’ve picked upalong the way. Good luck!1. Never memorize a

speech, but know yoursubject matter.2. Use note cards

whenever possible. Keywords and ideas shouldbe printed in easy-to-readform.3. Practice your speech

in front of a mirror, look-

ing yourself in the eye.4. Know as much

about your audience aspossible.5. Keep constant eye

contact with the audi-ence.6. Whenever possible,

use a rostrum.7. Don’t consume food

for two hours beforespeaking.Never consumecoffee, tea or soft drinksbefore speaking.8. Keep a glass of

water on the shelf be-neath the rostrum.9. Project your voice so

the people in the last rowcan hear you.10. If you make a

grammatical mistake ormisstatement, correctyourself immediately.

DR. WALLACE: Myparents are in Arizonawhere my dad is workingon a project for one year. Iam staying with mygrandparents so I can goto my own school. Myproblem is that I hatebeans of all kinds. Mygrandpa loves beans of allkinds so we have some

beans at almost everydinner. They don’t makeme eat this icky stuff, butthey keep telling me thatbeans are very nutritious.I have heard that theyare very fattening.Whichis true? —Nameless,Springfield, Mass.

NAMELESS: Beansare a type of legume andedible seed. According tothe Mayo Clinic HealthLetter, beans are high inprotein and a good sourceof folate, potassium, iron,phosphorus and magne-sium.The nutritional

makeup of beans mayhelp prevent chronic dis-eases such as cancer, dia-betes and cardiovasculardisease. Beans are fa-mous for their high fibercontent; a diet high infiber promotes digestivehealth and can help re-duce the risk of heart dis-ease.Do yourself a favor and

try a few. Beans are notfattening if you don’t addbutter or sugar to thiswonderful vegetable.

About dates on egg cartonsDear Read-

ers: Here is thisweek’s SoundOff, about storesmixing andmatching eggcartons:“The date on

egg cartonsmust not meanvery much. In agrocery store, Isaw an em-ployee adjustingthe eggs accord-ing to the breakage. Hewould remove the brokenor cracked eggs from onecarton and fill it from an-other carton that had

empty spaces. Ofcourse, they allmay have beenthe same date,but you can’t besure of that. —B.J. in Tennessee”The date does

mean something.According to theUnited StatesDe-partment of Agri-culture: “For bestquality, use eggswithin three to

five weeks of the date youpurchase them. The ‘sell-by’ date usually will ex-pire during that length oftime,but the eggs are per-

fectly safe to use.” So itseems to me that evenwith a “mix and match”carton of eggs, you aresafe eating them. —HeloiseNOT-SO-INSTANT RE-

MOVALDear Heloise: Can you

please tell me how to re-move instant glue frommy countertops? — LanaE., Klondike,TexasA big factor is the type

of countertops. If they aremarble, granite or a spe-cialty type, you shouldcontact the manufacturerfor its recommendation.Do not use nail-polish re-

mover on these surfaces.If you have laminatecountertops, here is a hintto try: Place a hot, wetcloth (like awashcloth) onthe glue spots. Leave thecloth on a spot until itcools, then replace it withanother hot,wet cloth.Re-peat this process until theglue has softened and youcan peel it off. If thismethod doesn’t work, theydo make special productsfor instant-glue removal.Just be careful whenusing, as they can dull thefinish. Test an out-of-the-way spot before using. —Heloise

NEW YORK, N.Y. —The “Big Game” has be-come much more than afootball game: It’s thesecond biggest day forfood consumption in theUnited States afterThanksgiving.So, to choose the most

splurgeworthy foods,here are the exerciseequivalents for some ofyour favorite footballsnacks from CharlesPlatkin, PhD,MPH, pub-lic health advocate, edi-tor of DietDetective.comand distinguished lec-turer at the City Univer-sity of New York Schoolof Public Health atHunter College.The idea is to use ex-

ercise equivalents to pro-vide a reference forcalories.• Handful of pita

chips, each with arti-choke dip = Running 141football fields.Each chip is 13 calo-

ries, plus just 1 table-spoon, probably justabout a chips worth, ofdip is 80 calories.Diet Pro: Make your

own 100 percent whole-wheat pita chips, anduse salsa instead of theartichoke dip.There are many dif-

ferent kinds of salsa.They’re good, and they’reonly 15 calories per ta-blespoon.• Four Dominos

stuffed cheesy bacon andjalapeno breadsticks =193 touchdown dances inthe end zone.While the stuffed

cheese bread is probablyvery tasty, with all thatfat it’s also a caloriekiller at 160 calories perpiece, or 640 calories forfour.Diet Pro: You can

toast 100 percent whole-wheat pita bread withbutter spray and Parme-san cheese.• Two slices of Domi-

nos bacon cheeseburgerfeast hand-tossed spe-ciality pizza (16 inches)= 209 minutes perform-ing in a

marching band.Pizza AND a cheese-

burger what will theythink of next? Each sliceis 490 calories, but it ishand tossed.Diet Pro: Try thin-

crust pizza, and if youreally want to be superhealthy, how about get-ting pizza without thecheese just add your ownParmesan.• Half of aWhite Cas-

tle Crave case withcheese = Face painting111 wild fans.These are sliders with

cheese. Each slider is170 calories.That’s 2,550calories for 15, butthey’re not very large,and there are 30 in acase.Diet Pro: How about

having just one or two?Make your own burgerswhite meat turkey burg-ers if you really want tobe super healthy, or atthe very least very leanground meat.• Three Sierra Ne-

vada Bigfoot beers = 211minutes of coaching foot-ball.There are some high-

calorie beers out there,and this is one of thehighest.Diet Pro: Unless you

love Sierra Nevada andrealize the calories, yourbest bet is a regular beeror, even better, one ofthose micro-light beers.The best would be

Beck’s Premier Light atonly 64 calories per 12-ounce bottle or MGDLight, also 64 calories.Michelob Ultra and Nat-ural Light have 95, oryou can go very low withBudweiser Select for 55.Sample a few light

beers before the game tosee which ones you pre-fer.• One sloppy Joe = 59

minutes of climbing thestadium stairs.This is a Tex-Mex cre-

ation that includes fattyground beef, sugar,ketchup and even flour.Sloppy Joes have morethan 500 calories with

the bun (about 150 calo-ries).Diet Pro: Use lean

ground beef and try alow-calorie sauce (with-out sugar). It will stilltaste great. Also, addveggies (onions, peppers,broccoli all chopped up)to the meat to loweroverall calories and in-crease health benefits.• Six traditional

hand-spun Buffalo WildWings dipped in ranchdressing = Doing “thewave” 6,480 times.Stand up, wave your

hand and be counted6,480 times.Six wings from Buf-

falo Wild Wings have990 calories. Then addabout two servings ofranch dressing at 170calories each for a totalof 340 calories. That’s1,330 calories if you haveonly a small dip of dress-ing per wing.Diet Pro: You can cer-

tainly make your ownchicken wings. Go skin-less and bake instead ofdeep frying them.

• Two handfuls ofCheetos jumbo puffs =30 minutes of playingprofessional football.The only problem is

that, according to TheWall Street Journal,there are only about 11minutes of actual ballplaying in a footballgame.That means you need

to play almost threegames of professionalfootball to burn off twohandfuls of Cheetos.Keep in mind, that’s 320calories for about 2ounces yes, only 2ounces.Diet Pro: How about

making your own pop-corn? Sprinkle it withParmesan cheese andspray it with butterspray.• One handful of trail

mix = 49 touchdowndances in the end zone.Keep in mind, nuts

and chocolate haveabout 160 calories perounce, which is not bad if

you don’t take five hand-fuls before you’ve evennoticed.Diet Pro: Try having

only nuts. Nuts arehealthy, but they’re veryhigh in calories, so don’tkeep a huge bowl infront of you. And try toeat them one at a timemeaning don’t shove anentire handful into yourmouth all at once.

• Bubba Gump jam-balaya = 375 minutes ofpreparing, cooking, serv-ing and cleaning up afterthe Super Bowl party.That’s more than six

hours of cooking, prepar-ing and cleaning. Yes,Bubba Gump is a chain,and the jambalaya has1,100 calories. Jamba-laya is typically madewith chicken, shrimpand andouille sausagesauté with peppers,onions, rice and spicysauce.Diet Pro: Make a

healthy jambalaya withboneless chicken breastand brown rice. Thatsthe way to go.• Outback baby back

ribs, full order = 123minutes of team practiceand conditioning.Ribs are fatty, and the

sauce is sugary. For therecord, Outback BabyBack ribs are 1,156 calo-ries.Diet Pro: Try making

them yourself, and trimall visible fat before andafter cooking. Also, in-stead of coating your ribswith an excessiveamount of sauce before-hand, partially cookthem loaded with sea-sonings, brush themlightly with the sauce,and then finish cooking.• Four bacon-

wrapped smokies = 156minutes being the teammascot.Little sausages

wrapped in bacon pop-ping just four of those inyour mouth will cost you156 minutes of jumpingaround and acting a bitfoolish (the good news isyou’ll be wearing

a costume).The bacon alone,

(without the sausageand brown sugar) ismore than 80 calories,for a total of more than160 calories per appe-tizer. Four of them godown easy for 640 calo-ries.Diet Pro: If you need

to eat some type ofbacon-wrapped horsdoeuvres, go with Apple-gate Farms OrganicHickory Smoked Un-cured Turkey Bacon. Itsonly 35 calories per slice.Hebrew National BeefFranks in a Blanket are60 calories each.• Three Pepsis = 57

minutes of dancing toBeyonce during theSuper Bowl half-timeperformance.Each 12-ounce can is

100 calories. So to burnoff just three Pepsis youneed to dance for morethan an hour to a Bey-once song.Have you heard her

music?Have you danced for

an hour straight?Diet Pro: Water, fla-

vored seltzer, unsweet-ened ice tea there are somany low- or no-caloriedrinks.

Aging America:

Elder abuse, use of shelters risingBY DAN SEWELLThe Associated Press

MASON (AP) — Sheraises her hands to hersnow-white hair in a ges-ture of frustrated bewil-derment, then slowlylowers them to covereyes filling with tears.The woman, in her 70s,is trying to explain howshe wound up in a shel-ter that could well bewhere she spends therest of her life.While the woman was

living with a close familymember, officials at theShalom Center say, hermoney was beingdrained away by peopleovercharging for her gro-cery shopping, while herbody and spirit weresapped by physical neg-lect and emotional tor-ment. She says she wasusually ordered to “go tobed,” where she lay in adark room, upset, unableto sleep.“She just yelled at me

all the time. Screamed atme, cussed me out,” thewoman says of a familymember. “I don’t knowwhat happened. She justgot tired of me, I guess.”The Shalom Center

offers shelter, along withmedical, psychologicaland legal help, to elderlyabuse victims in thisnorthern Cincinnati sub-urb. It is among a hand-ful in the country thatprovide sanctuary fromsuch treatment, a prob-lem experts say is grow-

ing along with the age ofthe nation’s population.The number of Ameri-

cans 65 and over is pro-jected to nearly doubleby 2030 because of the74 million baby boomersborn in 1946-64, and thenumber of people 85 andover is increasing at aneven faster rate. Thenumber of seniors beingabused, exploited or neg-lected every year is oftenestimated at about 2million, judging by avail-able statistics and sur-veys, but experts say thenumber could be muchhigher. Some researchindicates that 1 in 10seniors have sufferedsome form of abuse atleast once.“That’s a big number,”

said Sharon Merriman-Nai, project director ofthe Clearinghouse onAbuse and Neglect of theElderly, based at theUniversity of Delaware.“It’s a huge issue, and it’sjust going to get bigger.”Recognition of and

mechanisms for dealingwith elder abuse aremany years behindstrides that have beenmade in child abuseawareness and protec-tion, experts say.Getting comprehen-

sive numbers of theabused is complicated,experts say, because thevast majority of cases gounreported out of embar-rassment, fear of beingcut off from family —most abuse is at the

hands of relatives — orconfusion about whathas happened.Abuse sometimes

comes to light only bychance. County-leveladult protective servicescaseworkers can getanonymous tips. In onerecent Ohio case, a hairstylist noticed her eld-erly client was wincingin pain and got her to ac-knowledge she had beenhit in the ribs by a rela-tive. Another ShalomCenter patient was re-ferred by sheriff ’s detec-tives who said his sonbeat him.“Are these older peo-

ple going to be allowed tolive their lives the waythey deserve to?” saidCarol Silver Elliott, CEOof the Cedar Village re-tirement community, ofwhich the Shalom Cen-ter is a part. “We reallyare not addressing it asa society the way weshould.”The Obama adminis-

tration has said it hasincreased its focus onprotecting Americanseniors by establishing anational resource centerand a consumer protec-tion office, among othersteps. But needs aregrowing at a time whengovernment spending onsocial services is beingcut on many levels or notkeeping up with de-mand.In Ohio, slowly recov-

ering from the recession,budgets have been

slashed in such areas asstaffs that investigateelderly abuse cases.Staff at the Job and

Family Services agencyin Hamilton County inCincinnati is about halfthe size it was in 2009,spokesman Brian Greggsaid. Even as nationalstatistics indicate elderabuse is increasing, thenumber of elder abusecases the agency canprobe is lower, downfrom 574 cases in 2009to 477 last year, he said.There are no longer

enough adult protectiveservices investigators toroutinely check on olderadults unless there is aspecific report of abuseor neglect.“We do the best we

can down here,” Greggsaid, noting that theagency has a hotline totake anonymous reportsand that it is seeingmore financial scamstargeting elderly people.The price for not get-

ting ahead of the prob-lem and preventingabuse of people whowould otherwise behealthy and financiallystable will be high,warned Joy Solomon, aformer Manhattan assis-tant prosecutor whohelped pioneer elderabuse shelters with theWeinberg Center forElder Abuse Prevention,which opened in 2005 atthe Hebrew Home com-munity in New YorkCity.

“My argument alwaysis, if all you do is come inwhen the crisis has oc-curred, it is much morecostly than preventativecare,” said Solomon, di-rector of the shelter,which takes in about 15people a year. “We’regoing to have to pay forit anyway.”She and others in the

field say the first stepsare to raise publicawareness and train po-lice, lawyers, criminaljustice officials and oth-ers to recognize and re-spond to signs of abuse.Prosecutors often

have been reluctant topurse elder abuse cases,which can be complexbecause of medical andfinancial complications,the witness’ ability totestify or reluctance totestify against relatives,according to research forthe National Institute ofJustice.In suburban Los An-

geles, Orange Countystarted an Elder AbuseForensic Center nearly10 years ago; it helps po-lice, geriatrics special-ists, lawyers and socialservices workers coordi-nate efforts to identify,investigate and prose-cute abuse cases.NewYork City started

its Elder Abuse Centerto 2009 to bring a multi-organization approach tothe problem, sayingnearly 100,000 olderpeople are abused intheir homes in the city

alone. While he wasOhio’s attorney general,Richard Cordray, now di-rector of the federal Con-sumer FinancialProtection Bureau, initi-ated in 2009 the stateElder Abuse Commis-sion, something currentAttorney General MikeDeWine has continued.The commission has

focused on training andeducation and hopes tolaunch a public aware-ness campaign this year,said Ursel McElroy, thelongtime adult protec-tion services investiga-tor who leads it. Thecommission also hasbeen pushing for legisla-tion to improve legal pro-tection and abuseprevention, expandtraining, and improvestatistical data.In New York, part of

the Weinberg Center’smission is to help othercommunities replicate it.It has assisted shelterstartups in upstate NewYork, Connecticut,Rhode Island and Min-nesota along with theShalom Center in Ohio.The center marked its

anniversary in January.While more than 40 peo-ple have been referred tothe nonprofit, faith-based center, only threehave gone through withadmittance, signs of thereluctance of people whofear losing family rela-tionships — even if theyare bad — or the feelingof being at home.

Female inmate overcrowding problem for jailsATHENS (AP) — The warden

of a regional jail in southeastOhio says overcrowding of femaleinmates is becoming an increas-ing problem there and at othercounty and regional jails aroundthe state.There are 32 beds available for

women at the Southeastern OhioRegional Jail in Nelsonville and— often — they are all occupied,warden Jeremy Tolson told TheAthens Messenger.Tolson said the overcrowding

is “kind of a new trend,” occurringstatewide.Various factors have con-

tributed to the overcrowding, in-cluding a state legislative changein 2011, according to some jail of-ficials. That change enabled fifth-

and fourth-degree felons to be in-carcerated in county jails.Robert Cornwell, executive di-

rector of the Buckeye State Sher-iffs’ Association, said the changewas seen as a way to save thestate money and reduce its prisonpopulation. It gave judges moreflexibility to put nonviolent felonsin local control settings such ashalfway houses or community-based correction facilities, hesaid.“But that can put a burden on

local jails,” Cornwell said. “Manyof the jails that were constructedin the last 20 years didn’t envi-sion this increase in the femaleinmate population.”He said another factor con-

tributing to overcrowding is that

more women are being arrestedon drug-related charges consid-ered nonviolent offenses.“They stay at the local jail

when they are arrested, and ifthey are put on a local controlprogram and violate that, they goback to jail,” he said. “It can belike a revolving door.”In the regional jail in Nel-

sonville, 185 of the 226 inmatebeds are designated for its mem-ber counties. Those include thecounties of Athens, Hocking,Mor-gan, Perry and Vinton. The re-maining beds are used foroverflow.There were only about 200 in-

mates at the regional jail as ofJan. 23, but all of the beds forwomen were filled.

Ohio bankruptciesfall to recent lowAKRON (AP)—Court statistics show the number

of bankruptcy filings in Ohio last year fell to the low-est total since 2006.Experts point to several reasons for the drop, in-

cluding mortgage lenders holding off foreclosure pro-ceedings and people having somuch financial troublethat they have no assets left to protect, The AkronBeacon Journal reported.But experts also see studentloan debt drivingmore people into bankruptcy courts.University of Dayton professor Jeffrey Morris, a

member of theNational Bankruptcy Conference, saidincreased awareness of rough economic conditionsalso may make people more cautious financially.The roughly 50,600 personal and business bank-

ruptcies in 2012mark a drop of 14 percent from 2011,when there weremore than 58,800, according to datafrom Ohio’s two U.S. Bankruptcy Court districts. It’sthe lowest total since 2006, when about 36,000 werereported.The Columbus region had the most, with more

than 11,000 bankruptcies. In northeast Ohio, thethree-county Akron area had a bit more than 4,100,and the eight-county Canton region had about 3,500,the newspaper said.The data doesn’t differentiate between personal

and business filings, but increased difficulty in get-ting financing for new businesses also could con-tribute to fewer bankruptcies.“If you can’t open a new business, you can’t get into

financial trouble,” saidMarc Gertz, a lawyer inAkronwho has administered thousands of bankruptcy cases.

“Sidney City Schools helped prepare me for the challenges of college life and the real world ahead. Inside the classroom at Sidney High School, teachers pushed me and fellow students to perform at the next level, sparking the intellectual curiosity it takes to succeed in college, while also mentoring us to be good citizens. Because of their e!orts, I had no trouble adjusting to university level work.

Outside of the classroom, coaches and advisors helped shape my values and character. From them, I learned the value of hard work, dedication, and the spirit of never giving up, all of which have helped me succeed in my career as an o"cer in the US Army.

Sidney City Schools are big enough, with enough diversity, to expose students to the variety of people, cultures, and opinions it takes to understand and succeed in today’s society, yet small enough to maintain a sense of family, community, and cohesion. I credit my ability to thrive among di!erent cultures during my time in the Army to my experiences with a diverse student body within Sidney City Schools.”

Wildermuth attended Ohio University on an Army ROTC scholarship, from where he received Bachelors degrees in History and Political Science (2001) and a Masters in International Development Studies (2012). Wildermuth is a Major in the US Army, specializing in telecommunications. He is currently serving as an advisor to various Afghan local, national and border police in Paktia, Afghanistan, near the Pakistan border. In July, he and his family will be moving to Belgium, where he will serve as an operations o!cer servicing the communication needs of NATO.

The programrequirement for these programswill remain the same, except allparticipants who are eligible toparticipate in these programsmay choose DCP or ACRE in2013. Producers who were partic-ipating in ACRE may choose toparticipate in DCP and partici-pants who are in DCP may chooseto participate in ACRE.

All contracts from dairy pro-ducers participating in the MILCprogram will be extended to Sept.30. Producers do not need to re-enroll in the MILC program.

We were informed the maxi-mum eligible quantity changedfrom 2.4 million pounds to 2.985million pounds. Also, the feed-cost-payment rate has been in-

creased to 43 percent andthe payment for Septem-ber was changed from 0.0to approximately 59cents. The payment forOctober is approximately2 cents.

Producers will be up-dated with any informa-tion on programrequirements, updates,and sign-up dates as the

The Farm Service Agency willcontinue to accept SURE applica-tions for 2011 crop losses throughJune 7. The SURE Program pro-vides payments to producerswhen crop revenues are less thanthe crop guarantee. The SUREProgram is equal to 60 percent ofthe difference between the cropguarantee and revenue.

To determine the guaranteeand revenue for the SURE Pro-gram, all crops on all farms for aproducer are included in the cal-culation. Payments under theSURE Program are limited to$100,000.

To be eligible for the 2011SURE Program, producers musthave crop insurance on all insur-able crops. For crops that are notcovered by crop insurance such aspumpkins and cucumbers, pro-ducers must have purchasedNon-Insured Crop Disaster Assis-tance Program (NAP) coveragefrom FSA. The Crop Insuranceand NAP purchase requirementis waived for crops that are not

economically significant to thefarming operation. To be eligible,the producer must have at leastone crop with a 10 percent pro-duction loss.

NAP is a federally funded pro-gram that helps producers re-duce the risk when growing foodand fiber crops, specialty cropsand crops for livestock feed.These benefits are only availablefor crops for which the cata-strophic level of crop insurance isnot available. Applications forcoverage must be filed by the ap-plicable crop’s application closingdate. Production records for allcrops must be reported to FSA nolater than the acreage reportingdate for the crop for the followingyear. FSA requires that any pro-duction reported in a loss year tobe verified according to agencyspecifications. NAP losses mustbe reported within 15 days ofloss.

WPW not cause of rapid heartbeat

Mom must work to overcome hostility toward child

DEAR DR.ROACH: Canyou tell me howthe WPW syn-drome is de-tected? Mymother had theWPW syn-drome, and Ithink I have it.Sometimes myheart beats fastand wobbly. Mywhole chestsometimes goesup and down. Iwent to a cardiologist.My stress test was good.My echocardiogram wasgood.Does my heart have to

be in the throes of beat-ing off track for the doc-tor to record and detectWPW syndrome? — T.Y.

ANSWER: The

“WPW” is Wolf-Parkinson-Whitesyndrome, a com-mon (1 in 100)heart condition inwhich the electri-cal impulse com-ing from theheart’s pacemakerin the atria takesan alternate path-way to the ventri-cles of the heart.Normally, theelectrical stimu-lus travels down a

pathway so that it ar-rives in the ventricleprecisely when needed.However, in WPW syn-drome, the impulsecomes too quickly downthe alternate path. Occa-sionally, this leads to abig problem, because theelectrical impulse can

travel back up the nor-mal path and down thefast path again, over andover, causing an ex-tremely rapid heart rate.WPW usually is found

on a routine EKG. Thereare cases where it can’tbe seen, in which case astress test is often diag-nostic. But there aremore causes for fastheartbeats. Your cardiol-ogist has done both theecho and the stress test.If you keep having symp-toms, you could wear adevice that records yourheartbeats continuouslyfor 24-48 hours, called aHolter monitor, or anevent monitor for evenlonger times. Speak toyour cardiologist if youkeep having symptoms.WPW can be treated

with medication, but itnow is more frequentlybeing treated with radio-catheter ablation, wherethe extra pathway is de-stroyed with radiowaves. Not everyonewith WPW needs treat-ment.

The experi-ence left me hurt andhumiliated, and I con-tinue to harbor resent-ment toward him.I’m happily remar-

ried now, but Emma is aconstant reminder ofmy bad marriage. I feelshe’s selfish, rude, lazyand disrespectful —characteristics Scottpossesses. I have littletolerance for her behav-ior and I’m hard on her.Sometimes I feel likeI’m talking to him in-stead of to a little girl.I have seen several

therapists, butnobody has beenable to help. Ihave been told,“Your child isn’tyour ex so youneed to get overit!”Compounding

the problem isthe daughter Ihave with mysecond husband,a little girl Iadore beyond

words. She’s sweet,kind, friendly and es-sentially the opposite ofEmma. I love this childmore than I love Emma,and I’m disgusted withmyself for feeling thisway. It was Scott whohurt me, but I can’t getpast the hurt.Abby, what can I do?

DEAR DIS-TRESSED: Try harderto rebuild the bond youdidn’t form with Emmawhen she was born be-cause of your anger at

her father. It can stillbe done, but it will takework on your part.Emma’s behavior maybe the result of how youhave treated her, and ifYOU can change, somay she. I’ll share withyou a letter I printedseveral years ago fromanother mother whoshared your problem:“DEAR ABBY: The

best advice I ever re-ceived for coping withmy contrary daughterwas from a neighborwho had a surly girl ofher own. She made aconscientious effort tobe more demonstrativeto her daughter, hugher more and hold on alittle tighter to showher how valued shewas.”I tried it with my

daughter, going out ofmy way several times aday to express my lovefor her. It was awkwardat first, but I perse-vered. I committed my-self to loving that

unlovable being, andslowly but surely itpaid off. At first, shewould lean away, buteventually she wouldask me to hold on ‘justone more minute.’“My daughter is 24

now and on her own.Her life isn’t what Iwould have hoped for orexpected, but that’s OK.I’m her touchstone forlove and acceptance. Ican’t imagine my lifewithout her. — AN-OTHER MOM IN CAL-IFORNIA”Emma may be a diffi-

cult child, but she’s notstupid. She sees the dif-ference between howyou react to her half-sister and the way youtreat her. A first stepfor you would be toapologize to her, putyour arms around herand tell her that fromnow on you will try todo better as a mother.Emma didn’t ask to beborn, and you owe herthat.

The weather patternstays unsettled for the nextfew days.There’s achance ofscattereds howerst h r o u g hTuesday.Tempera-tures willbe well above seasonal nor-mals with highs approachingnear 60 on Tuesday.

NEW BREMEN — TheJackson Center Tigers over-came all kinds of adversity topost a big road win Saturdaynight, beating the New Bre-men Cardinals 43-35 in non-league boys basketball actionSaturday at Bremen.The Tigers, now 14-2, are

back in action Tuesday athome against Marion Localbefore hosting the Anna Rock-ets in County play Friday.Jackson had two players,

Gavin Wildermuth and EricRyder, both foul out, and lead-ing scorer Alex Meyer washeld to just two field goals theentire game. But Wildermuthdid plenty of damage beforehe departed, scoring 10 pointsin the first half to lead theTigers to a 23-14 lead at thebreak. New Bremen madeseveral runs in the secondhalf, but the Tigers never letthe Cardinals get closer thanthree points.“It was a very good win,”

said Jackson coach ScottElchert. “It was a war, and Imean that in a good way.Every possession was a battleand it was one of those gameswhere every possession wasbig.”The Tigers were solid de-

fensively all night, andElchert pointed to Levi Win-ner as being a key on that endof the floor.“Levi was kind of the un-

sung hero,” he said. “Heplayed (Bremen’s) CarsonManger real tough in the sec-ond half after we had to dosome switching because offoul trouble.”Wildermuth finished with

12 points to lead the Tigersand Meyer added 11, hittingsome big free throws down thestretch.Manger had 10 for the now

13-3 Cardinals, who were heldto 25 points below their scor-ing average for the season.Bremen returns to action

——Caudill leads

Jets over VikingsCASSTOWN — Fairlawn

has been struggling of late,but got just themedicine itneeded, an excel-lent road per-formance inbeating theMiami EastVikings 56-51Saturday night.The Jets are

now 11-6 overalland play at Russia Fridaynight in County play. MiamiEast is now 10-5.“This was a good win and

hopefully it will get us back ontrack,” said head Fairlawncoach Justin Tidwell.The key to the game was

likely the unselfish play of sen-ior Trey Everett and the long-range shooting of Brad Caudill.The Vikings came out in a

3-2 zone that troubled theJets for a while, until Tidwellput Everett in the middle.When he got the ball, theVikings were all over him, buthe was able to dish out to theopen man.The biggest beneficiary was

Caudill, who made theVikings pay dearly, and tied a

school record, by hitting seventhree-pointers. He finishedwith a game-high 23 points,and also had five rebounds.“Miami East collapsed on

Trey when he got the ball inthe middle and he did a goodjob of kicking it out,” said Tid-well. “And Brad had a bignight shooting the ball.”Everett scored only two

points, well below his average,but still finished just shy of adouble-double. He had 10 as-sists and pulled down nine re-bounds.Anthony Gillem added 14

points for the Jets.The loss was the first ever

by a Miami East high scoolteam in its two-year-old gym-nasium. The volleyball, girlsbasketball and boys basket-ball teams were all unde-feated in the new gym untilSaturday night.

——Yellow Jacketslose at St. MarysST.MARYS— Sidney’s Yel-

2-15 with the setback and willreturn to actionTuesday nightat home against Wapakoneta.St. Marys is now 5-10.“We weren’t shooting well,”

said Sidney coach Greg Sny-der. “We were fighting to stayclose, but James Daniel andTyree Manley were both infoul trouble.”Snyder said a key point in

the game came late in thefirst half. The score was tight,but the Roughriders were ableto go on an 8-0 run to open upa 32-21 bulge at the intermis-sion.“We made some mistakes

and they took advantage,”said Snyder. “And they hit athree at the buzzer to put usin a tough position going in atthe half. In the second half, wedid some good things and got

some stops but foul troublehurt us again.We weren’t ableto make enough shots and wemissed some free throws.”Jalen Herd was the only

Jacket to manage double fig-ures, finishing with 10.“Jalen came off the bench

and gave us a nice spark,” Sny-der said of Herd. “He was ag-gressive and made some niceplays at both ends of the floor.”

SAN DIEGO (AP) —The fog listed Sundayand revealed a familiarsight: Tiger Woods incommand at TorreyPines.Despite finishing with

a bogey on the easiesthole of the back nine,Woods began to pullaway from the field witha 3-under 69 in the thirdround to build a four-shot lead in the FarmersInsurance Open. Woodshas only lost twice on thePGA Tour in 40 previoustimes that he has heldthe outright leadthrough 54 holes.Because fog wiped out

all of Saturday, playerswere going as long asdaylight allowed beforereturning Monday tocomplete the tourna-ment.Woods, who was at14-under 202, was likelyto get in about six holesbefore darkness, and hedidn’t bother switchingto a red shirt for thestart of the final round.Brad Fritsch, a PGA

Tour rookie fromCanada, had a 70 andwas at 206. Erik Comp-ton finished birdie-eaglefor a 71 and was alone inthird, five shots behind.Asked about trying to

chase Woods, Comptonstarted laughing.“I’m trying to chase

myself,” he said.Woods has won seven

times at Torrey Pines asa pro, including a U.S.Open, and another winMonday would give himthe most wins on anycourse.The tournament staff

followed the final groupalong the back nine,ready to change thehole locations to getready for the finalround. Players hadabout 30 minutes to getsomething to eat andhit a few balls beforegoing right back out.Woods had superb

control of his tee shotsand was rarely out of po-sition on a day thatbegan under a light driz-zle and soon gave way topatchy clouds and clearviews of the Pacific surfbelow the bluffs.Starting with a two-

shot lead, he stretchedthat quickly with a tap-in birdie on the secondhole and a beautiful teeshot to a left pin on thedownhill par 3 to about4 feet. The SouthCourse played evenlonger with the soft con-ditions, and only sevenplayers broke 70. AaronBaddeley had the low-est score of the roundwith a 68.

MIDDLETOWN —Even with leading scorerNatalie Billing seeinglimited time on the floorbecause of foul trouble,the Anna Lady Rocketsstill put themselves inposition to win a bigroad game Saturdayagainst perennial powerMiddletown Madison.But Madison came up

with a couple of big back-to-back three-pointers toswing the momentum,then hit free throwsdown the stretch to de-feat the Lady Rockets ina non-league girls bas-ketball game Saturdayin Middletown, 66-56.The loss leaves Anna

at 14-4 on the year head-ing into another bigchallenge Thursday atTipp City.Billing, Anna’s top

scorer and rebounder,picked up three fouls inthe first quarter andwent to the bench for theremainder of the half.She re-entered the gamein the third quarter butpicked up her fourth,dispatching her to thebench again.“She got her second

foul in the first quarterand I took a chance,” saidhead coach Jack Billing.“Madison is so big thatwe needed her in there.But it didn’t work out.”When the game

ended, Natalie hadplayed only nine min-utes or so.But even with that,

Anna took now 16-2Madison to the limit,and Jack Billing pointedto a key series early inthe final period. With5:40 remaining in thegame, Anna had a three-point lead and posses-sion of the ball.“We missed a layup

and they hit two three-pointers in a row,” thecoach said. “So instead ofus going up by five, wewere down three, andthat really changed themomentum. We had tostart fouling and theyhit their free throws.“Madison played well

and hit some big shotswhen they had to,” headded. “We’re just notgetting any breaks.”Anna has toughened

up its schedule substan-tiallywith games like this.Others this season in-clude Dayton Carroll andCincinnatiWintonWoods,and then there is TippCity on Thursday. Andthey all have one thing incommon– all have been orwil be on the road.Cayla Bensman and
