Medal of Honor recipientshares tales, shakes hands

BY PATRICIA ANNSPEELMAN

You can tell a lot about aman’s character by the snapdecisions he makes.HerschelWoodrow “Woody”

Williams, of Huntington,W.Va., made a momentous oneas a Marine corporal on IwoJima in 1945. For it, he re-ceived the Medal of Honorfrom President Harry S. Tru-man.He made another one Fri-

day at the end of a speech atFairlawn Local Schools. It wasmuch more quiet. Much lessnewsworthy. But it swelledthe heart of everyone in at-tendance.When teacher Rebecca Eg-

bert asked if he’d be willing toshake the hand of each stu-dent leaving the assembly,Williams didn’t bat an eye orstop to consider whether itwould take a physical toll. Hesimply said, “Yes.”The 89-year-old World War

II veteran then gave an un-forgettable moment to each ofthe more than 200 students,

faculty, staff and communitymembers who had listened ashe talked about gratitude andappreciation of freedom.Theirline wound through the audi-torium as they filed across thestage. He grasped each per-son’s hand warmly and spokea word of thanks to his audi-ence one by one.Williams was in Sidney

due to the efforts of local in-surance company presidentand private pilot Dale Peter-son. The Medal of Honor re-cipient arrived at the Sidneyairport Friday morning, to begreeted by Sidney MayorMichael Barhorst with aproclamation and 20 Ameri-can flags that had beenerected at 6:30 a.m. by Dr.Charles Edelen.Williams wasescorted by Shelby CountySheriff John Lenhart to Sid-ney High School, where he ad-dressed 225 governmentstudents and teachers, then tothe American Legion hall forlunch with legion members.He spoke at Fairlawn LocalSchools Friday afternoon, ad-dressed 65 people at a cele-bratory dinner at St. Paul’s

United Church of Christ andgave a final speech in thechurch sanctuary to an audi-ence of about 105.Each presentation was pre-

ceded by the screening of avideo that describedWilliams’s heroic action inWorld War II. Backed up byMarine riflemen, he usedflame throwers to wipe outseven pillboxes, now known asbunkers, during a four-hourperiod. His work opened U.S.access to enemy airfields onthe island of Iwo Jima.“The day after I got the

Medal of Honor from Presi-dent Truman, I went to theCommandant of the MarineCorps, who was also a Medalof Honor recipient. I don’tknow who I was more afraidof, the president or the com-mandant. He said, ‘Thatmedal doesn’t belong to you. Itbelongs to all the Marineswho didn’t get to come home.Don’t ever do anything to tar-nish it.’”At Fairlawn, Williams

urged students to appreciatethe freedoms they enjoy with-

IRS targetedtea partygroupsBY STEPHEN

OHLEMACHERAssociated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) —The Internal Revenue Serviceapologized Friday for what itacknowledged was “inappro-priate” targeting of conserva-tive political groups duringthe 2012 election to see if theywere violating their tax-ex-empt status.IRS agents singled out

dozens of organizations foradditional reviews becausethey included the words “teaparty” or “patriot” in their ex-emption applications, saidLois Lerner, who heads theIRS division that overseestax-exempt groups. In somecases, groups were asked forlists of donors, which violatesIRS policy in most cases, shesaid.The agency — led at the

time by a Bush administra-tion appointee — blamed low-level employees, saying nohigh-level officials wereaware. But that wasn’t goodenough for Republicans inCongress, who are conductingseveral investigations andasked for more.“I call on the White House

if I thought I could matchyour knowledge and yourwisdom,” he said. “Youhave the Internet, email,Facebook, Twitter, iPods,worldwide communica-tion. You can find outhow to make a bomb ormanufacture dope or usea computer to spread allkinds of falsehoods.There’s no prosecutionfor perjury on the Inter-net.”He told the audience

that they don’t have tosay the Pledge of Alle-giance to the flag or puttheir hands on theirhearts to sing the na-tional anthem if theydon’t want to.“In other countries,

you don’t have thechoice,” he said. “I’m con-fident that everyone inthis room loves America.How long has it beensince you said that toyourself or anybodyelse? Is America the bestplace to live in theworld?”Williams talked about

what it was like to growup on a farm during theGreat Depression.“Imagine this sce-

nario:” he said, “You’reliving in a home with no

radio, TV, newspaper,magazines, not even achurch, youth center, nomovies, no skating rinksor community building.But everyone around wasin the same shape. Onevalue that we had thatyou perhaps don’t have isthat what we had, we re-ally appreciated.”He told them that

rules shape our lives andfoster responsiblity andhonor.“The Bible says, ‘The

truth will set you free,’”he said. “That’s becausewhen it’s the truth, itjust is. You don’t have totry to remember whatyou said.”A member of the Con-

gressional Medal ofHonor Society, Williamsdiscussed medals the so-ciety awards to civiliansfor acts of heroism. Hetold of a 14-year-old boywho rescued a baby froma burning house.“No one I know ever

said, ‘I’m going to fightthe enemy to get amedal of honor,’”Williams said. “He wasat a moment in timewhen, without thoughtof himself, he put his lifein danger to save some-one else. They happenall over America and wedon’t hear about them.”

When Peterson askedhim if he thought allAmericans should jointhe armed services,Williams said, “No. Noteveryone is suited forthat. But every graduateshould give some kind ofservice to the commu-nity. They should givesomething back.”He thinks, he said,

that at the end of suchservice, people would bemore mature when theyrejoined “civilian” lifeand they would be morecompassionate.At the church, he

spoke about miracles.“When I was born, I

weighed three pounds.Three-pound babiesweren’t supposed to live.We had no oxygen, nodoctors. A neighborhelped my mom.We hadno incubators. But wehad an incubator for thechickens.The chicken in-cubator saved a three-pound baby. So it’s amiracle that I’m heretoday,” he said.He has questioned

throughout his life themiracle that saved himduring the war, when8,120 others were killedand 21,000 injured onIwo Jima.“In the early part of

my life, I was not associ-

ated with a church. I hadno learning or schoolingabout faith,” he said.“When I was in the Ma-rine Corps, I had nofaith, but I had hope. Iwas engaged to a girlwho kept me going.” Hishopes for their futurewere what he held ontoin dark times.“I did come home and

marry her, and we had63 wonderful years ofmarriage together,” hesmiled.At Sidney High

The Shelby CountySheriff ’s Office is warn-ing residents of a scamthat seems to have sur-faced in the county.This latest scam is

from group called theDisabled Veterans Na-tional Foundation.Sheriff John Lenhart

is warning residentsthat packages are beingmailed to residents con-taining a pocket plan-ner/calendar and ahandheld calculator.Also in the package is arequest for donations tothe Disabled VeteransNational Foundation outof Washington, D.C.The national charity

watchdog group, CharityWatch, has given thegroup, Disabled Veter-ans National Founda-tion an F rating. CNNand “Anderson Cooper360” have also donesome investigating ofthe Disabled VeteransNational Foundationand the following is aquote from their article:“The independent groupCharity Watch gave theDisabled Veterans Na-tionalFoundation an F

grade. More than 30 vet-erans charities were

rated by the independ-ent group by the amountthey spend on fundrais-ing compared to actualdonations, and two-thirds were given eithera D or F grade, accordingto Charity Watch presi-dent Daniel Borochoff.”Residents should be

suspicious of organiza-tions that use nameslike the “Disabled Veter-ans National Founda-tion” as they are verysimilar to the long-standing and trusted or-ganizations such as theDisabled American Vet-erans and the Veteransof ForeignWars, Lenhartsaid.As a way to avoid

these scams, Lenhartand the staff at theSheriff ’s Office urge res-idents to avoid scams bynever agreeing to handlefinancial transactionsover the phone orthrough the mail withpeople they are unfamil-iar with, no matter whatthe reason.“As sheriff, my staff

and I stand ready to as-sist any county residentthat feels they have beenscammed or are in con-tact with a scammer,”Lenhart said.

Sheriff’s office warnsof charity scam

COLUMBUS (AP) —Ohio Attorney GeneralMike DeWine has angrilyrebuked a promoter ofvideo raffle machines,saying the businessmanmisstated his office’slegal position on thegames and should retracthis statements.In a March letter to

Tim Smith, the attorneygeneral wrote: “Your or-ganization is misrepre-senting the AttorneyGeneral’s position onyour machines. We de-mand that you ceasemaking these misrepre-sentations, and takesteps to correct thesemisrepresentations.”Smith is a liaison to

the OhioVeterans & Fra-ternal Charitable Coali-tion, and a consultant toCharitable Management& Capital Group, thevendor of the machinesthat are pitched to groupslike the Masons, Eaglesand Moose. DeWine’s of-fice released a copy of theletter Friday toTheAsso-ciated Press.Smith said in a letter

last spring to membercharities of the coalitionthat DeWine is “fully in

favor” of the terminalsand agreed they werelegal — a statementDeWine says is not true.In Smith’s letter, obtainedby the AP, Smith de-scribed the devices as “araffle form of bingo” that’slegally allowed in Ohio.He sought to assuage

clients’ concerns that theraffle terminals might beconsidered Internet cafeslike those now targetedby a proposed statewideban.“This is unsettling for

those fraternal and mili-tary organizations thateither have some of thosemachines in their clubsor posts, or are contem-plating adding CMCG’sVideo Raffle Terminals totheir organization,” hewrote.Smith described

“many meetings” withDeWine, Gov. John Ka-sich and CharitableMan-agement chief executiveAl DeLeon to work outdetails for accepting themachines statewide.“They are fully in favor

of our raffle-based termi-nals and agree they meetthe criteria for the Re-vised Code,” Smith wrote.

mento County sheriff'sDeputy Matt Campoy inthe face Tuesday as he leftthe main jail at the end ofhis shift. He grabbed herand took her inside the jail,where she slapped his armas soon as he turned herloose.Once she was hand-

cuffed, the 5-foot 1-inchLopez told Campoy shepicked him because he wasin uniform and she wantedto make sure she struck alaw enforcement officer.“She waited all day for a

deputy to come out becauseshe knew if she assaulted adeputy she would go to jailand be inside long enoughto quit her smoking habit,”Campoy told The Sacra-mento Bee.

Jay Carney declared it was in-deed inappropriate for the IRSto target tea party groups. Buthe brushed aside questionsabout whether the WhiteHouse itself would investigate.Instead, Carney said the

administration expects a thor-ough investigation by theTreasury Department’s in-spector general for tax admin-istration. The inspectorgeneral has been looking into

the issue since last summer,and his report is expected tocome out next week, the IG’soffice said Friday.Carney said he did not

was wrong for the agency totarget groups based on politi-cal affiliation.“That was absolutely incor-

rect, it was insensitive and itwas inappropriate. That’s nothow we go about selectingcases for further review,”Lerner said at a conferencesponsored by the AmericanBar Association.“The IRS would like to

apologize for that,” she added.Lerner said the practice

was initiated by low-level

complained during the cam-paign that they were being ha-rassed by the IRS.They accusedthe agency of frustrating theirattempts to become tax exemptby sending them lengthy, intru-sive questionnaires.The forms, which the

groups have made available,sought information aboutgroup members’ political ac-tivities, including details oftheir postings on social net-working websites and aboutfamily members.

THE 408-FOOT spire at thetop of One World Trade Cen-ter is seen from lower Man-hattan, Friday in New York.The tall, heavy spire was fullyinstalled Friday, bringing OneWorld Trade Center to itssymbolic height of 1,776 feet.

BY TED SHAFFREYAssociated Press

NEW YORK (AP) — TheWorld Trade Center’s rebirthhas long revolved around creat-ing a centerpiece of unsparingsymbolism: a skyscraper 1,776feet tall, its height an homageand a bold statement aboutlooking forward.The new 1WorldTrade Cen-

ter reached that heightwith thelowering of a silvery spire froma crane onFriday, officially tak-ing its place as a signature ofthe city’s skyline and, withsome argument, the nation’stallest tower.After years of waiting for

and watching the building’srise, the moment resonated formany, fromworkerswho lookedon from the building’s roof tovisitors on the ground.“It’s a pretty awesome feel-

ing,” Juan Estevez, a projectmanager for Tishman Con-struction, said from a tempo-rary platform on the roof of thetower where workers watchedwith shouts of joy as the finaltwo sections of the 408-foot,758-ton spire were installed.Carol Johnston gazed up at

the structure later Friday froma nearby building.“It’s sort of a renewal … like

‘you can’t keep us down,’” saidJohnston, a tourist from FortWorth,Texas.Even — or perhaps espe-

cially — for New Yorkers whohave followed the World TradeCenter rebuilding after theSept. 11, 2001, terror attacksdestroyed the twin towers, thespire’s completion was an im-pressive milestone.“I was giving them at least

fivemore years to be done,” saidGil Areizaga, a Manhattan res-ident who took out-of-towncousins to see the building Fri-day.The skyscraper, expected to

open next year, is the focal pointamong the buildings designedto replace the fallen twin tow-ers. When master plans for thesite were unveiled inDecember2002, architect Daniel Libe-skind envisioned the tower“restoring the spiritual peak ofthe city, creating an icon thatspeaks to our vitality in the faceof danger and our optimism inthe aftermath of tragedy.”

Investigation launchedinto Texas plant explosion

BY RAMITPLUSHNICK-MASTI

Associated Press

WACO, Texas (AP) —Texas law enforcement offi-cials on Friday launched acriminal investigation intothe massive fertilizer plantexplosion that killed 14 peo-ple last month, after weeks oflargely treating the blast asan industrial accident.The announcement came

the same day federal agentssaid they found bomb-makingmaterials belonging to a para-medic who helped evacuateresidents the night of the ex-plosion. Bryce Reed was ar-rested early Friday on acharge of possessing a de-structive device, but law en-forcement officials said theyhad not linked the charge tothe April 17 fire and blast atWest Fertilizer Co.“It is important to empha-

size that at this point, no evi-dence has been uncovered toindicate any connection to theevents surrounding the fireand subsequent explosion …and the arrest of Bryce Reedby the ATF,” the McLennanCounty Sheriff ’s Office said ina statement.Texas Department of Pub-

lic Safety said earlier Fridaythat the agency had in-structed the Texas Rangersand the sheriff ’s departmentto conduct a criminal probeinto the explosion. The agen-cies will join the State FireMarshall’s Office and the Bu-reau of Alcohol, Tobacco,Firearms and Explosives,which have been leading theinvestigation and never ruledout that a crime may havebeen committed.“This disaster has severely

impacted the community ofWest, and we want to ensurethat no stone goes unturnedand that all the facts relatedto this incident are uncov-ered,” DPS Director StevenMcCraw said.McLennan County Sheriff

Parnell McNamara said resi-dents “must have confidencethat this incident has beenlooked at from every angleand professionally handled —they deserve nothing less.”The statement did not de-

tail any further reasons forthe criminal investigation andsaid no additional informa-tion would be released.Reed, meanwhile, was in

federal custody. A criminalcomplaint unsealed Friday af-ternoon said he was arrested

after McLennan Countydeputies were called earlierthis week to a home in Abbott,a town about five miles fromWest, and found bomb-mak-ing materials — including agalvanized metal pipe, canis-ters filled with fuses, a lighter,a digital scale and a variety ofchemical powders.“After further investiga-

tion, it was determined thatthe resident had unwittinglytaken possession of the com-ponents from Reed on April26,” says the complaint signedby ATF special agent DouglasKunze.An ATF explosives special-

ist and a chemist examinedthe items and agreed the“combination of parts can bereadily assembled into a de-structive device,” the com-plaint says.Reed made an initial ap-

pearance in federal court inWaco on Friday, but did notenter a plea.Officials have largely

treated the West explosion asan industrial accident, thoughinvestigators still searchingfor the cause of a fire that pre-ceded the blast have said theywould treat the area as acrime scene until all possibil-ities were considered.

Woman rescued after 17days in Bangladesh rubbleBY JULHAS ALAM

Associated Press

SAVAR, Bangladesh (AP)— For 17 days, the seamstresslay trapped in a dark base-ment pocket beneath thou-sands of tons of wreckage astemperatures outside climbedinto the mid-90s F. She ra-tioned food and water. Shebanged a pipe to attract atten-tion. She was fast losing hopeof ever making it out alive.In the ruins of the col-

lapsed eight-store garmentfactory building above her, thefrantic rescue operation hadlong ago ended. It had turnedinstead into a grim search forthe decaying bodies of themore than 1,000 people killedin the world’s worst garmentindustry disaster.“No one heard me. It was so

bad for me. I never dreamedI’d see the daylight again,” theseamstress, Reshma Begum,told Somoy TV from her hos-pital bed after her astonishingrescue on Friday.The miraculous moment

came when salvage workersfinally heard Begum’s bang-ing. They pulled her to safety.She was in shockingly goodcondition, wearing a violetoutfit with a large, brightpink scarf.“I heard her say, ‘I am alive,

please save me.’ I gave herwater. She was OK,” saidMiraj Hossain, a volunteerwho crawled through the de-bris to help cut Begum free.The rescue was broadcast

on television acrossBangladesh.The prime minis-ter rushed to the hospital, asdid the woman’s family to em-brace a loved one theythought they’d never againsee alive.On April 24, Begum was

working in a factory on the

second floor of Rana Plazawhen the building began col-lapsing around her. She saidshe raced down a stairwellinto the basement, where shebecame trapped near a Mus-lim prayer room in a widepocket that allowed her tosurvive.Her long hair got stuck

under the rubble, but sheused sharp objects to cut herhair and free herself, saidMaj. Gen. Chowdhury HasanSuhrawardy, the head of thelocal military units in chargeof the disaster site.“There was some dried food

around me. I ate the driedfood for 15 days. The last twodays I had nothing but water.I used to drink only a limitedquantity of water to save it. Ihad some bottles of wateraround me,” Begum told thetelevision station, as doctorsand nurses milled about, giv-ing her saline and checkingher condition.More than 2,500 people

were rescued in the immedi-

ate aftermath of the disaster,but crews had gone nearlytwo weeks without discover-ing anyone alive. The last sur-vivor had been foundApril 28,and even her story endedtragically. As workers tried tofree Shahina Akter, a firebroke out and she died ofsmoke inhalation.Crews were instead en-

gaged in the painstaking workof trying to remove bodies sothe victims’ families could burytheir loved ones. They eventu-ally approached the sectionwhere Begum was trapped.“I heard voices of the res-

cue workers for the past sev-eral days. I kept hitting thewreckage with sticks and rodsjust to attract their attention,”Begum said.She finally got the crews’

attention when she took asteel pipe and began bangingit, said Abdur Razzak, a war-rant officer with the military’sengineering department whofirst spotted her in the wreck-age.

charge to attend. Mone-tary donations in anyamount will be accepted.Carry-outs will be avail-able.Proceeds will benefit

the Wounded WarriorProject, a national or-ganization based inFlorida whose mission isto honor and empowerwounded warriors.“I feel so bad seeing

all these people comingback without arms andlegs, and I wished Icould do something,”

said auxiliary memberJackie Thoma, of Sidney.“I imagine lots of peoplefeel the same way and ifthey can come and havea nice dinner and theirmoney goes to help,that’s a good thing.”The group hopes that

200 people will attend.Members have not set amonetary goal.“I’d be tickled if we

got $2,000,” Thoma said,“but we’ll be happy withanything we get.”They will hang a ban-

ner at the event thatreads “We remember.”That’s because afundraising letter fromthe Wounded WarriorProject said, “The great-est casualty is being for-gotten.”Thoma and Marie

Theis, of Sidney, havebeen busy preparingsauce.They had received a

donation of 32 pounds ofground beef and havebeen adding their home-made sauce to the storesin the legion’s freezer forseveral weeks.AliceWil-son, Aunalee Moore,

lar efforts supportedSidney’s Singing Sol-diers.“Our husbands were

in the Singing Soldiers,”

Thaman said.TheWoundedWarrior

Project (WWP) beganwhen several veteransand friends, moved bystories of the firstwounded service mem-bers returning home

from the current con-flicts, took action to helpothers in need, accordingto WWP information.What started as a

program to provide com-fort items to woundedservice members has

grown into a completerehabilitative effort toassist warriors as theyrecover and transitionback to civilian life.For information about

WWP, visit wounded-warriorproject.org.

alike are invited to par-ticipate. The course willbe a flat, scenic tow path,finishing along theMiami Erie Canal at theCrown Pavilion.

formed to help a littleboy and his family gen-erate the funds neededfor a service dog.Oliver suffers from an

average of 100 seizures aday due to Dravet Syn-drome, a severe form ofepilepsy.Dravet Syndrome is

caused by a genetic mu-tation that alters theway the brain cells con-duct electricity, leadingto severe seizures.The first seizure usu-

ally occurs in an other-wise normal, healthyinfant before one year ofage.There is no cure for

Dravet Syndrome andOliver will never out-grow his seizures. With

the help of a seizure dog,Oliver’s family will bealerted prior to aseizure, allowing forOliver to get anticonvul-sant medication before aprolonged seizure wouldstart, potentially savinghis life. Oliver’s dog willalso serve as a compan-ion for Oliver during thescary times all childrenwith a chronic illnessface.The mission of the

Epilepsy Foundation isto lead the fight to stopseizures, find a cure, andovercome challenges cre-ated by epilepsy in the11-county service area:Auglaize, Champaign,Clark, Darke, Greene,Logan, Mercer, Miami,Montgomery, Preble andShelby.The Flame Walk for

Epilepsy is an event tocelebrate those livingwith seizures and thefamily members thatsupport them.This day also provides

an opportunity to raiseawareness for the one in26 people that will be di-agnosed with epilepsy intheir lifetime and tohonor the memory of allwho have passed due tothe complications ofepilepsy.To create a fundrais-

ing team, visitwww.flamewalk.org. Aportion of the proceedswill assist Oliver and hisfamily in getting a serv-ice dog.The remainder will

stay in the local commu-nity and benefits theprograms and services ofthe Epilepsy Foundationof Western Ohio.

Council dubs Minster ‘AGreat Community’

MINSTER – After lis-tening to a group of vil-lage residents make aplea to keep the oldworld-style lettering onthe south-side watertower, Minster VillageCouncil voted unani-mously to go with thenew brand, “Minster AGreat Community.”

Armed with a petitioncontaining 975 signa-tures, members of thegroup urged council tokeep the traditionalscript when the watertower is painted laterthis month.Those oppos-ing the script letteringand logo on the towersaid council should fol-low the wishes of thepeople on the matter.

The group was criti-cized for the door-to-doorcanvassing of the villageto gain signatures on thepetition. CouncilmanSteve Kitzmiller said hereceived a call from aresident whose elderlymother reportedly hadbeen coerced into sign-ing the petition.

The branding initia-tive begin in 2008 whenthe Minster Civic Associ-ation, Minster Journey-man’s Club, MinsterService Club and the vil-lage launched a market-ing campaign.

Village resident MaryJane DeLoye requestedthat council memberssee what can be done toprevent flooding base-

ments on Second andThird streets.

Village AdministratorDon Harrod said theproblem is with thesewer lines in the area.He said village employ-ees will do inflow and in-filtration testing in thearea to see if somethingcan be done quickly tocorrect the problem.

Jeff Puthoff of ChoiceOne Engineering of Sid-ney said one option is toreplace sewer lines withlarger lines, which willcost $500,000. He alsosaid more testing isneeded to eliminatestorm water from flow-ing into sanitary sewerlines.

In other business

the council:• Granted military

leave to police officerAdam Bergman, who isbeing deployed overseas.

• Approved a requestfrom village residentMary Lou Slonkosky forthe third annual youthtriathalon on villagestreets July 14.

• Discussed periodicproblems with odorsfrom the Dannon plant.It was reported the yo-gurt company is takingstops to alleviate theproblem.

• Approved a resolu-tion opposing House Bill5, which seeks to man-date statewide adminis-tration of municipalincome taxes.

DR. WAL-LACE: I’m 18and so is Lori,my so-calledgirlfriend. Wehad been goingsteady for ayear, but webroke up twodays before wegraduated. Ourfirst ninemonths weresuper, but wehad lots ofproblems the lastthree. The last strawwas when shescreamed out loud infront of my friends thatI was a “stupid idiot.”Losing my temper, Islapped her face andpulled her hair.I’ve tried calling her,

but she won’t answerthe phone and hermother keeps tellingme to stop calling be-cause Lori doesn’t wantto see me anymore. Irealize that I made amistake, and I want toget back with her. Whatcan I do to get herback? —Nameless,Merrillville, Ind.

NAMELESS: Stopcalling Lori. Send her acard and, in a few well-chosen words, tell heryou are sorry for yourunacceptable behaviorand ask her to forgiveyou. End by asking herto call you, but don’thold your breath untilshe does. Your behaviormight be in the unfor-givable category. Hadshe contacted the po-lice, you could be writ-ing to me from behindbars.

DR. WALLACE:Carly and I have beenclose friends for manyyears. Recently she

broke up withher boyfriendbecause she gottired of him.Last week shetold me I hadbetter hangonto myb o y f r i e n dtightly becauseshe was think-ing of takinghim away fromme. She saidshe was only

fooling, but I’m not sosure she was.Last night she and

another friend metMatt and me at themall, and she reallymade a play for him,telling him he washandsome and such agood athlete. I almostthrew up on the spotlistening to her.Now I’m convinced

she’s out to steal Mattaway from me. Pleasetell me what I can do toinsulate Matt from herclutches. Please don’ttell me to drop Carly asa friend. That wouldonly make mattersworse. I like Matt verymuch, and I’m prettysure he feels the sameabout me. At least hesays he does. —Denise,Knoxville, Tenn.

DENISE: There’snothing like a “closefriend” to make you feelinsecure. If you reallyhave a friendship withher, ask her for yoursake, to stay away fromMatt. If she ignoresyou, she really isn’tyour friend, so drop-ping her as one isn’teven an option.Meanwhile, the next

time you go out, tellMatt your fears aboutCarly. Let him knowthat you care for him

very much and hope hefeels the same wayabout you. Chances are,Matt will laugh aboutCarly and reassure youthat you’re his one andonly.If his response falls

somewhat short of that,perhaps things aren’tgoing all that well be-tween you.In either case, the

issue isn’t Carly, butabout you and Matt. Ifthe two of you are solid,she won’t be a threat.

For Monday, May 13,2013

ARIES(March 21 to April

19)Your imagination is

heightened today, whichis why you will spendtime daydreaming orslipping away on flightsof fantasy. Don’t worryabout this; you might getsome bright ideas.

TAURUS(April 20 to May 20)You might be tempted

to go overboard spend-ing money on luxuriousitems today. Althoughyou love antiques andcollectibles, don’t do any-thing you will regretlater.

GEMINI(May 21 to June 20)You feel sympathetic

to others today, but youmight be tempted to fall

for a sob story. Remem-ber: True generosity isgiving what is needed.

CANCER(June 21 to July 22)You feel selfless today

and are willing to putthe wants and needs ofothers before your own.This is noble. However,make sure you knowwhat you’re doing (andnot just being a sucker).

LEO(July 23 to Aug. 22)Help a friend if you

can today, but do not letanyone take advantageof you. It’s always a fineline. Your feelings ofsympathy might be con-fused with martyrdom.

VIRGO(Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)Some of you might de-

velop a crush on a bossor someone in a positionof authority. Make surethis is based in reality.(It could be just pixiedust and very tempo-rary.)

LIBRA(Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)Fantasies of travel to

distant places appeal toyou today. Likewise, dis-cussions about philoso-phy, religion and politicsmight sound appealing,but they, too, might beunrealistic and fanciful.

ing with others or mak-ing important decisionsabout inheritances andjointly held property.You’re tempted to giveaway the farm. Don’t dothis.

Conversations withpartners and closefriends will be mutuallysympathetic today. Peo-ple are willing to shareand listen. (This is agood thing.)

CAPRICORN(Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)Although you might

feel sympathetic to a co-worker, make sure yourefforts to help aregrounded in reality.Don’t promise more thanyou can deliver.

AQUARIUS(Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)Romance is appealing

today, and you might de-velop a crush on some-one who is unlikely orimpossible to relate toyour world. Remindyourself to stay realistic.

PISCES(Feb. 19 to March 20)You will want to help

a family member today,which is a good thing.Make sure you knowwhat you’re doing andwhy you’re doing it.

YOU BORN TODAYYou are well-spoken andskilled with words, andyou know how to usehumor and satire tomake your point. Manyof you are entertainersand writers. You valuefamily, and you appreci-ate a beautiful home(ideally, mortgage-free).In the year ahead, youwill have lots of socialopportunities to enjoyyourself; and your rela-tionship with others willimprove. Birthdate of:Daphne du Maurier, au-thor; Stephen Colbert,political satirist; RobertPattinson, actor.

To the editor:I am writing to ex-

press the hope that mywife has a greatMother’s Day. This iswhy:When I was a

teenager, I met this won-derful and beautiful girl,Glenna, that must havebeen one of God’s angelsfrom Heaven. Throughthe mystical, magicaland unstable teenageyears, we got married in1975. Through the years,we had three great andwonderful sons. As theyears went by, I haveseen her work a full-timejob, come home, cook,clean, stay up late tomake a birthday cake,take care of us when wewere sick and still raisethree boys (some say fourboys, including myself). Icould write a book about

this wonderful lady.Over the years, we

had our trials and tribu-lations and we never gotrich with money, but weare rich in some wonder-ful friends, family andeach other. She never gotwhat she really deservesfor being such a wonder-ful wife and mother andshe has never com-plained about anything.Always giving — nevertaking.I know that for being

a wonderful wife andmother, God will have agreat blessing for herwhen she entersHeaven!On this Mother’s Day,

I am grateful to her forbeing a wonderful wifeand a great mother.

There’s no home remedy for COPD

Happy tween troubled by bouts of depression

DEAR DR.ROACH: In a re-cent column, yourecommended“very aggressivetreatment” of theCOPD in a manwho was nearlypassing out whencoughing due to acold. I know aman who hasbeen diagnosedwho continues tosmoke a non-fil-tered brand ofcigarette.His coughing ispersistent, and he coughsup phlegm.He is pushing70, and suffers shortnessof breath with minimalexertion.He cannot seemto gain weight despiteeating a high-fat and -carb diet. He avoids doc-tors. Is there anythinginvolved in the treatmentyou referred to thatmight ease this man’scondition? Short of givingup smoking, he appears

in enough dis-comfort to wantrelief. — S.C.

A N S W E R :Chronic obstruc-tive pulmonarydisease (COPD),comes in twoforms, emphy-sema and chronicbronchitis. Smok-ing is by far themost likely causeof these condi-tions. Persistentcough is the hall-

mark of chronic bronchi-tis. Smoking causes aprogressive, inexorabledestruction of the lungsin susceptible people, andthe only way to halt itsprogress is to quit smok-ing. Apart from quittingsmoking, there are someother therapies that canhelp people with COPD.

Many people withCOPD have constrictedairways, similar to peoplewith asthma, so inhalers

can help open these air-ways and relieve some ofthe shortness of breaththat comes from COPD.Other types of inhalershelp reduce the abnor-mal, thick mucus thatplugs the airways.Steroids — usually in-haled but sometimestaken by mouth, espe-cially during exacerba-tions — often are used toreduce the inflammationin the lungs.

If the lungs are dam-aged to the point whereoxygen levels in the bloodare low,which is quite ad-vanced COPD, then theuse of oxygen at home notonly helps people feel bet-ter but can help them livelonger as well. However,oxygen use in currentsmokers is dangerousand increases the risk offire.Many physicians areuncomfortable prescrib-ing home oxygen tosmokers.

Weight loss withCOPD is very common.Ahealthy, balanced diet isthe right approach, withmaybe some extrahealthy fat, such aspeanut butter, which re-duces the amount of worklungs need to do, if onlyslightly.

Medications and oxy-gen are available onlyfrom a physician or nursepractitioner. If he wantsrelief, it’s time for him tostop avoiding them.

The booklet on COPDexplains both emphy-sema and chronic bron-chitis, the two elementsof COPD, in detail. Read-ers can obtain a copy bywriting: Dr. Roach — No.601, Box 536475, Or-lando, FL 32853-6475.Enclose a check ormoneyorder (no cash) for $4.75U.S./$6 Can. with the re-cipient’s printed nameand address.

DEAR ABBY:I am a 12-year-old girl who ishappy, healthyand doing greatin school. Butlately I have feltsad, lonely andjust plain frus-trated. I used totalk to my par-ents about it, butI don’t feel com-fortable doing itanymore, and my friendsdon’t like listening to me.

I have tried hard topush back these feelings,but it is putting a strainon me. Sometimes Ibreak down crying andcan’t stop. Most peoplethink it’s just my age,but it’s not. It’s morethan that. I want to talkto a psychologist, but I’mscared to ask for one.What do you think? —SO MIXED UP

DEAR SO MIXEDUP: Admitting you needprofessional help with aproblem isn’t somethingto be scared of. It is asign of maturity.

Your mood swings

may be causedby the hormonalchanges going onin your body asyou are becom-ing a woman.However, be-cause they are ofconcern to you, itis important thatyou let your par-ents and yourpediatrician or acounselor at

school know how you arefeeling. It’s the surestway to get the reassur-ance and, if necessary,the counseling you thinkyou need.

DEAR ABBY: My 6-year-old daughter wantsa dog more than any-thing in the world. Shementions it at least oncea day.

She’s a great kid,well-behaved and doingwell in school, so I hateto disappoint her. But Ihave absolutely no inter-est in taking on theadded responsibility of apet like that.

My wife and I worklong hours and our home

is unoccupied for most ofthe day. It would have tobe adjusted to be pet-friendly. I have nothingagainst pets, but I couldnever be considered ananimal lover.We currentlyhave two goldfish, but Ican see that the timethose guys bought me isquickly running out.

I want my daughterto be happy and re-warded for what a greatkid she is. I DON’T wanta dog. What do I do? —BAD DADDY OUTWEST

DEAR DADDY: Iwould have suggestedthat you consider allow-ing your daughter toadopt a hamster orguinea pig, but they re-quire a certain amount ofcare. A child has to be re-sponsible enough to feed,water and clean the cagedaily, and at 6, yourdaughter is not matureenough. Tell her thatwhen she is older youwillconsider letting her havea pet. Cats require muchless care than dogs do.

Perhaps a compro-

mise could be workedout at a later date.

DEAR ABBY: I am75, and when I pass on Iwould like the under-taker to remove my sixgold caps from my teeth.Then my wife can sellthem to pay for my fu-neral. I think this willwork out well. What isyour take on this? — EDIN FLORIDA

DEAR ED: As Istarted researching“dental gold,” I realizedthat while there arecompanies that buy it,the price your wifewould get will dependupon the weight of thegold — most of which is16-karat — and the cur-rent market value of themetal.

Because of the nose-dive that gold has expe-rienced lately, I’madvising you to startsaving up for your fu-neral NOW and to livelong and prosper. My ex-perts have informed methat most funeral homesare unwilling to removefillings, caps, etc.

We'll see some sunshinebefore an-other coldf r o n tm o v e sthrough thearea by thel a t ee v e n i n g .This willbring usa n o t h e rchance fora few lightshowe r s .You'll definitely notice thecooler temperatures thisweekend with highs only inthe 50's.

CINCINNATI (AP) —Brandon Phillips homeredand made a spectacular rally-busting play — using his leftknee to get a forceout andstart a double play — as theCincinnati Reds beat the Mil-waukee Brewers 4-3 on Fri-day night.Phillips had an RBI single

off Yovani Gallardo (3-2) andadded a solo homer in the sev-enth after making a savingplay in the top of the inning.With two Brewers aboard, hegot to Ryan Braun’s grounderup the middle, tagged secondbase with his left knee whilefalling down and threw tofirst for a double play.The Reds won for the fifth

time in seven games. Cincin-nati is 14-6 at Great Ameri-can Ball Park, the most homewins in the majors.Milwaukee got solo homers

from Jean Segura and Braun,but lost for the seventh timein eight games.Alfredo Simon (3-1) threw

two innings in relief of rookieleft-hander Tony Cingrani.Aroldis Chapman gave up arun on a wild pitch in theninth while getting his eighthsave in as many chances.Carlos Gomez went 0 for 4

and grounded into a doubleplay, ending his hitting streakat a career-best 14 games.Neither Gallardo nor Cin-

grani lasted more than fourinnings on a wet night, test-ing both bullpens’ depth. Bothwere stingy, but Cincinnati’shad a one-run lead to hold.Reds relievers allowed threehits and four walks in five in-nings.The Brewers gave up eight

hits and nine walks.The Reds pulled ahead 2-0

in the third on Phillips’ two-out RBI single and JayBruce’s double off the glove ofNorichika Aoki in right field.Bruce improved to .419

He’s also given up a lot ofhomers — six in five starts,tied with Bronson Arroyo forthe team lead.Segura led off the fourth

with a homer that barelyeluded the top of Bruce’sglove in right field andbounced off the top of the wallbefore continuing into thestands. Braun homered to

CINCINNATI (AP) —TylerEifert lined up here, there andjust about everywhere duringhis first practice with theCincinnati Bengals. Felt likeold times.The Bengals got started on

their new tight end-heavypassing game Friday at thestart of a weekend rookieminicamp. A lot of the focuswas on Eifert, chosen in thefirst round to give quarter-back Andy Dalton anothertarget.Eifert lined up in a lot of

different spots at NotreDame. Judging by the firstday of practice in Cincinnati,he’s going to be doing thesame thing in the NFL.“A lot of the things I’m

learning are a lot of the sameplays we had in with twotight ends — move mearound in different posi-tions,” Eifert said. “Today Iwas out in the slot quite a bit.I think I’m picking it uppretty fast.”With Dalton watching from

the sideline, Eifert made anice one-hand catch duringthe morning workout, a pre-view of what he can bring toan offense that’s been overlydependent upon receiver A.J.Green.The Bengals haven’t added

another proven receiver in theoffseason. Rather, they tookEifert with the 21st overallpick, figuring his ability tocatch the ball in a crowd —heset a Notre Dame recover forcatches by a tight end — willgive them some versatilityand force defenses to worryabout someone other thanGreen.Eifert lined up as a tight

end on either side and also asa slot receiver during practice.The biggest challenge waslearning the Bengals’ lan-guage for each play and the

pass protections.“I think I picked it up bet-

ter than I thought I would atfirst,” Eifert said. “It’s not awhole lot, but it’s definitelysomething new for me. I’mcatching on pretty quicklyand moving around quite abit.”The Bengals would like to

use him along with tight endJermaine Gresham, their firstoverall pick in 2010. The NewEngland Patriots have shownthat a two-tight end approachcan keep defenses off balance,provided that both can catchthe ball.New England’s Tom Brady

set career highs in yards pass-ing and touchdowns in 2011,using his tight ends gener-ously. Defenses had trouble

handling both RobGronkowski and Aaron Her-nandez in the two-tight endapproach.Gronkowski had 90 catches

for 1,327 yards that season.Hernandez had 79 for 910.“You look at that year, and

a lot of people don’t realizethat Tom had his best statis-tical season ever in history,”said running back BenJarvusGreen-Ellis, who was withNew England then. “We threwthe ball numerous times. Weran the ball three to five timesa game.“Of course, that’s not what

you want to do when you’re arunning back. But we werewinning games. It was a shockto the league that year. It canactually be a great thing

when you have two guys whocan catch the ball. It takes alot of pressure off what youcan do because you had toprepare for all those guys.”Dalton thinks that having

two tight ends who can catchthe ball will make defensesvulnerable somewhere. Dal-ton wasn’t allowed to workout with the rookies duringminicamp. He left the field asthe morning workout waswrapping up.“You get the matchup of the

tight ends on the linebackersand safeties,” Dalton said re-cently. “So I think he’s goingto be a great addition. He’sgoing to make Jermaine a bet-ter player. I’m excited to gethim in here and get workingwith him.”

Bremen blanked by Parkway

DARLINGTON, S.C.(AP) — Kurt Buschended up on top at Dar-lington Raceway a weekafter finishing upside-down at Talladega.Five days ago, Busch

went airborne near theend of the Aaron’s 499and crash landed onRyan Newman.On Friday, Busch

sped around Darlingtonwith a fast lap of181.918 mph for histhird career pole here. Itsurpassed the two-year-old mark of 181.254 mphheld by Kasey Kahne.“Last week, we ended

on our lid and thisweek, we’re here with atrack record,” Buschsaid.Defending Southern

500 champion JimmieJohnson will start along-side Busch, followed byBusch’s younger brotherKyle, Kahne and MartinTruex Jr.It’s been quite a week

for the elder Busch.There was the fright-

ening crash in the lastSprint Cup race, then anIndy Car test session forMichael Andretti at theIndianapolis MotorSpeedway on Thursday.It’s also the 10-year an-niversary of thethrilling, side-by-sideduel with Ricky Cravenin which Busch lost therace by .002 seconds —the closest finish inSprint Cup since the se-ries went to electronictiming in 1993.“It’s been surreal,”

Busch said. “It’s been anamazing ride.”And it might not be

finished. Busch’s Furni-ture Row team was thesurprise winner at Dar-lington two years ago,Regan Smith holding onto bring victory to thesingle-car program andthe only NASCAR oper-ation based west of theMississippi River, inDenver.“To put it on the pole

is a great surprise, butit’s also showing the

strength of the team,”Busch said.Busch joined with

Craven earlier in theweek to talk about theirmetal-swapping duel,where both crossed theline in a virtual tie whilegrinding on each other.Busch said he felt like awinner despite finishingsecond because he racedhard, clean and gave allhe could in chasing vic-tory.“Maybe I’m on the

way to winning by two-thousands of a second,”he said, grinning.Busch was also stoked

about his Indy Car ses-sion, where he turnedlaps in excess of 220mph. “It was a kid in acandy store moment,” hesaid.Busch has had five

previous top-10 fin-ishes at Darlington, thelast coming when hetook third in 2010. Heremembered his firstpole here, set in 2001when he became the

youngest driver in his-tory to start up front atthe Southern 500.Busch was young andbrash and did not lis-ten to veteran com-ments about howdifficult the track “TooTough To Tame” couldbe.These days, Busch ac-

knowledged how luckyhe was to win that pole12 years ago, doingabout everything wrongon the way to surpassingJeff Gordon for the topspot. “Just because of mystupidity, I got it,” hesaid.

CENTRAL OHIOAlum Creek Lake

(Delaware County) -This 3,192-acre lakenorth of Columbus is agood bet for crappies,white bass, and channelcatfish now. Fishing jigsand minnows sus-pended by a floataround woody cover inthe upper end of thelake and in coves is agood way to catch crap-pie. Crappie must benine inches or longer tokeep. Use minnows,jigs, and small spinnersin the upper end of thelake north of HowardRoad when seekingwhite bass. White bassare also available in the

creek itself, at Kil-bourne. The area aboveHoward Road has goodnumbers of channel cat-fish; use cut shad forbest results.NORTHWEST OHIOFerguson Reservoir

(Allen County) - Crappiehave been biting at this305-acre reservoir lo-cated on Reservoir Rd,on the east side of Lima.Anglers have been hav-ing the best success inthe mornings andevenings. Try fishingalong the east bank ornorth bank near theboat ramp with jigs orslip bobbers with min-nows or wax worms un-derneath. The reservoirhas a primitive boatramp and boats are re-

stricted to electric mo-tors.SOUTHWEST OHIOEast Fork Lake (Cler-

mont County) - Anglersare reporting success oncrappie using minnowsand jigs with tubes. Trychartreuse and whitecolor patterns. They aregenerally being taken in18 to 24-inches of water.Fish around structure,fallen trees and in thecoves.Rocky Fork Lake

(Highland County) - An-glers are reporting de-cent saugeye fishing.Try crankbaits or trollwith a Shad-Rap. Crap-pies are hitting betweenthree to four feet, useblack or chartreuse jigsand minnows. Bass arebeing taken withcrankbaits in water twoto six feet in depth.

LAKE ERIEWestern BasinWalleye fishing was

excellent at times overthe past week (as of 5/7).The best areas were Wof South Bass Island, be-tween Middle Bass Is-land and North BassIsland, N of North BassIsland, and N of KelleysIsland. Trollers havebeen catching fish oncrankbaits and wormharnesses. Jigging hasslowed down on the reefsandW of the reefs as thespawning season is end-ing.Yellow perch have

been caught N of KelleysIsland. Perch spreaders

with shiners fished nearthe bottom produce themost fish.

Central BasinWalleye have been

caught nearshore offCleveland after 6:00 pmand at night in 10-15' ofwater using rapalas,husky jerks and reefrunners.Yellow perch fishing

Perch spread-ers with shiners fishednear the bottom pro-duce the most fish.Shore fishing has beenspotty in the Clevelandarea and off the Fair-port Harbor Pier. An-glers are usingspreaders with shinersand the mornings havebeen best.Smallmouth bass is

picking up in 15 to 25' ofwater around harborareas in Cleveland, Fair-port Harbor, Geneva,Ashtabula and Con-neaut. Anglers areusing drop shot rigs withrubber worms, soft-craws, leeches, tube jigs,and crank baitsThe water tempera-

A LARGE catfish is netted and pulled from the Dickand Dinah Martin pond on Children’s Home Roadthis week. The pond will cease to exist due to the

runway expansion at the Sidney Municipal Airport,and the Martins requested that the fish be movedprior to the beginning of construction.

The lakes in the Cityof Sidney’s park systemreceived a large numberof fish from the Dick andDinah Martin pond onChildren’s Home Roadthis week.The pond is scheduled

to be removed as part ofthe runway expansionconstruction at the Sid-ney Municipal Airport.However, the Martins

requested that the fish

in the pond be removedprior to construction be-ginning.According to Duane

Gaier, director for thecity’s Parks and Recre-ation Department, hemet SteveHeitmanwhilelooking for someone to re-move the fish. Heitmanowns Shelby Fish FarmonWells Road in Anna.“After he explained

what the process was for

seining the fish, I askedhim what he thought itmight cost to do thework,” Gaier said. “Stevefelt that since it wassomething for the com-munity, he would do it atno charge. So he and hisson-in-law (JeremyDearth) donated a cou-ple of hours of their time,equipment and gas totransfer the fish.“The park patrons

benefit from many actssuch as this,” Gaieradded. “Sidney andShelby County are fortu-nate that it is a givingcommunity.”There were over 300

fish that were movedfrom the pond to thelake at Roadside Park onthe south edge of Sidney,and to Tawawa andAmos lakes in TawawaPark.

For Sunday, May 12, 2013ARIES (March 21 to April 19)This is a creative day for writers andartists. (Remember: Aries is the signthat is the artisan of the zodiac.) Ex-plore ideas, but don’t agree to anythingimportant.TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)Although this is a pleasant day, it’s apoor day for important financial deci-sions. It’s also a poor day to shop foranything other than food or gas.GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)This is a fun-loving, lighthearted day;however, you feel a bit like a heliumballoon adrift in the sky. Enjoy chat-ting to others. Keep things light.CANCER (June 21 to July 22)Quiet moments of meditation orthoughtful contemplation will pleaseyou today. This is a good day for yogaand mind-centering activities. Cocoonat home.LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22)This is a wonderful day to schmoozewith friends and groups. However,don’t volunteer for anything or agreeto anything important. Wait until to-morrow to know what you’re doing.VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)Private details about your personallife might be made public today. Justbe aware of this in case you need to dosome damage control. (Oops.)LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)This is a great day to study and ex-plore new ideas; however, if traveling,you can expect delays and detours.Enjoy meeting people from other cul-tures.SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)Others feel generous to you today. Inturn, you might feel generous to oth-ers. However, avoid important deci-sions about finances and sharedproperty — just for today.SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)This is a good day for candid conver-sations with partners and closefriends, because people are open andwilling to share their feelings. Justkick some ideas around; postpone bigdecisions until tomorrow.CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)Expect shortages and delays at worktoday. Fortunately, co-workers are in agood mood. Go with the flow and takecare of business as usual.AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)This is a highly creative day! Tap intoyour natural talents or just be a kidagain — drawing, dancing, singing,whatever. It’s a good time for parties,vacations and entertaining.PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20)You feel generous to family memberstoday, and they probably feel generousto you. Nevertheless, this is a poor dayto make big decisions or impulsivelygive something away. Wait until to-morrow.YOU BORN TODAY You’re direct andhonest, and you never hesitate tospeak your mind. Others like to bewith you because they know they cantrust you. (Plus, you have a wonderful,dry sense of humor.) You’re a take-charge straight-shooter who exudesconfidence. In the year ahead, a majorchange might take place, perhaps assignificant as something that occurredaround 2004.
