Morning fire displaces two families All residents escape, woman tosses baby from upstairs to man standing below

Firefighters’ little helpers

Piqua firefighters work to extinguish hot spots at 515 Adams Street on Friday morning following a fire that caused heavy damage to the multi-family dwelling.

BY MIKE ULLERY Chief Photographer mullery@civitasmedia.com PIQUA — A Friday morning house fire in Piqua displaced two families and resulted in heavy damage to a home.

Piqua firefighters were called to 515 Adams St. around 5:30 a.m. on a reported fire with possible entrapment. They arrived to find the multi-family structure heavily involved

in flames.

Piqua Assistant Fire Chief Vince Ashcraft said the family living in the downstairs portion, including one confined to a wheelchair, were all able to escape the flames. Two of the three upstairs residents were able to get out of the burning home but one was trapped on an upstairs balcony. Firefighters were able to rescue the resident by getting a ladder to the balcony.

Witnesses on the scene reported that a man jumped from the upstairs apartment and woman tossed a baby down to him. The woman who dropped the baby to the man below is thought to be the woman who was rescued by firefighters.

In spite of heavy flames making entry to the structure difficult, firefighters were able to extinguish the blaze although damage is considered to be

very heavy.

All three upstairs residents were transported to Upper Valley Medical Center for treatment of possible smoke inhalation, but none of those injuries are considered life-threatening.

No firefighters were injured. The state fire marshal was called to the scene to assist in determining a cause.

The American Red Cross is assisting the displaced families.

Kids celebrate nature at Hug the Earth

BY BETHANY J. ROYER Staff Writer broyer@civitasmedia.com PIQUA — The question ‘Are you smarter than a fifth-grader’ may need to be applied to thirdgraders as Mike “The Rock Man” Manning had a sharp audience at the annual Hug the Earth Banana Slug Festival held Thursday at Stillwater Preserve.

Third-grade area students from primary schools of Piqua Catholic, Newton, Kyle, Hook, St. Patrick, Piqua, Cookson and Washington were quick to identify the various rocks, minerals, and

fossils presented by Manning. They also identified fool’s gold, dinosaur parts, and even petrified wood, making for a well-educated, smart bunch. Even a meteor or rather, a meteorite as a space rock having fallen to the Earth is titled, could not stump the students though the dinosaur droppings, having long since turned to stone, did and drew a chorus of disgust.

Of course, the majority of the presentation offered by the Rock Man beneath a large canvas tent and amongst other fun activities such as a rock climbISAAC HALE/STAFF PHOTO ing wall, music, a zip-line Washington Intermediate fourth graders prepare to roll the bouncy earth ball over their fellow students as and more, consisted of part of the Hug the Earth festival held at Stillwater Prairie Reserve on Thursday. The festival aims to teach See Earth/Page 2 kids about the environment through fun games and other activities.

PIQUA — Mission: Veterans to D.C. pulled together the last of its resources to host an event that provides veterans the opportunity to learn more about the D.C. memorials that honor their service to our country.

Veterans are invited to visit with one another over a provided meal, while listening to music from the past. A collection of military vehicles will also be available to browse during the event.

This celebration for Miami County veterans will be held from 3-7 p.m.

June 15 at Piqua Junior High School. There is no cost to attend the celebration, but an RSVP is requested. Mail his/her name, address, and phone number along with the information for one optional guest to Mission: Veterans

Megalodon — a prehistoric shark — tooth.

The students were given a special opportunity to touch all the pieces, minus the dinosaur egg that drew quite a collective circle of questions and eyeballing, that Manning has collected over the years.

As a former teacher and

a geologist, Manning has spent his entire life collecting rocks from around the world.

“You are going to see things you may have never seen before,” said Manning to each new group that gathered beneath the tent and looked eagerly to the heavilyladen tables. Such a group

included students from the Piqua Catholic school with Assistant Principal Sister Mary Alice Haithcoat.

“It’s going great,” said Haithcoat of her students enjoying the day’s event and especially Manning’s presentation. “It’s fun and it’s a good time for the kids.”

to D.C., P.O. Box 569, Piqua, Ohio 45356. Tickets can be picked up at the door the day of the event and dress is casual.

This final celebration encompasses the success of 11 trips to Washington, D.C., which started in 2007.

Glenn Devers, founder of Mission: Veterans to D.C. started the trips to honor his four brothers, who returned safely from World War II. “I began to wonder if other veterans would enjoy going to see their monuments,” Devers said.

On the morning of day one, veterans gathered to get onto the bus and drive to just outside of D.C. The second day was spent at the memorials and give veterans time to talk about the memorials. The final day was spent driving back to Piqua, providing time for reflection.

The bus ride to and from D.C. offered veterans

a chance to talk about their experiences and their personal journey.

“When the veterans talk to other veterans and even to me, there is healing of old wounds,” Devers said. “They have a language all their own.”

During the full day in Washington, D.C., the veterans would visit the Arlington National Cemetery, the World War II Memorial, the Marine Corps War Memorial, and the Korean Veterans Memorial, among others.

Often the Miami County veterans would end up talking to someone not in the group and share their experiences with them.

“There is a lot of understanding that takes place,” Devers said.

On each trip Devers attended, a book was passed around, being filled with the signatures of the veterans present. From this book, it was clear the grat-

itude veterans had for being able to go to D.C. Devers was humbled by the experience of meeting the veterans, hearing their stories, and giving back to them.

“I’ve received the blessings most of all,” Devers said.

Devers mentioned that the trips were designed to express appreciation for the veterans and give them a marvelous experience.

The final trip took place spring of 2012. With this last trip, a total of more than 350 Miami County Veterans have been honored, 200 traveling companions have provided support for their loved ones by going on the trip and more than 180 volunteers have gone to D.C. “It’s important to listen to your heart and obey what your heart is saying,” Devers said.

Man likely to appeal conviction Murder trial hinged on paralyzed victim blinking eyes

BY LISA CORNWELL Associated Press CINCINNATI (AP) — The man convicted in a murder trial that hinged on a paralyzed victim blinking his eyes to identify his shooter plans to appeal, a defense attorney said after the verdict.

A jury on Thursday found Ricardo Woods guilty of murder and felonious assault for the death of David Chandler, who was shot Oct. 28, 2010, while sitting in a car in Cincinnati.

Woods, 35, had no obvious reaction as the verdict was read on the third day of jury deliberations but later said “I’m innocent” as he was led to jail. Sentencing is scheduled for June 20, and he could face up to life in prison.

Chandler’s halfbrother, Richard Tucker, said in a telephone inter-

view that Chandler’s family was “happy that justice has been served” and that the verdict helps ease their pain and grief.

“It’s been a long time coming,” said Tucker, 50, of suburban Cincinnati.

Police interviewed the Chandler 35-year-old after he was shot in the head and neck. He was only able to communicate with his eyes and died about two weeks later.

During the trial, jurors viewed the videotaped police interview that prosecutors say showed Chandler blinked three times for “yes” to identify a photo of Woods as his shooter. The defense had tried to block the video, saying Chandler’s blinks were inconsistent and unreliable.

Defense attorney Kory Jackson said Thursday he expects the video will play a part in Woods’ ap-

peal.

“We have said since the beginning that the video should not have been allowed into evidence,” Jackson said.

He had argued that Chandler’s condition and drugs used to treat him could have affected his ability to understand and respond during the police interview.

Judge Beth Myers, who ruled that jurors could see the video, had noted that Chandler’s identification was made by pronounced, exaggerated movement of the eyes. A doctor who treated Chandler later testified that Chandler was able to communicate clearly about his condition.

In the video, police had to repeat some questions when Chandler failed to respond or when the number of times he blinked appeared unclear. But Chandler blinked his eyes hard

three times when police asked him if the photo of Woods was the photo of his shooter. He again blinked three times when they asked him if he was sure.

The defense also had argued that showing Chandler only one photo that of Woods instead of presenting a lineup of photos was “suggestive.”

Jackson said the case against Woods was about misidentification and “a misguided investigation.”

Jocelyn Chess, an assistant county prosecutor, said jurors made the right decision.

“They looked at all the evidence, and the evidence showed that Ricardo Woods was guilty,” she said.

A jailhouse informant testified that Woods told him he shot at Chandler because he caught him buying drugs from someone else while still owing Woods money for drugs.

Treasury officials told of IRS probe in June 2012

BY STEPHEN OHLEMACHER Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — Senior Treasury officials were made aware in June 2012 that investigators were looking into complaints from tea party groups that they were being harassed by the Internal Revenue Service, a Treasury inspector general said Friday, disclosing that Obama administration officials knew there was a probe during the heat of the presidential campaign.

J. Russell George, the Treasury inspector general for tax administration, testified alongside ousted IRS head, Steven Miller, who did little to subdue Republican outrage during hours of intense congressional questioning. Both defiant and apologetic, Miller acknowledged agency mistakes in targeting tea party groups for special scrutiny when they applied for tax-exempt status, but he insisted that agents broke no laws and

that there was no effort to cover up their actions.

Miller only stoked the criticism of many Republicans, who are assailing the administration on a sudden spate of other controversies, as well, even as some Democrats tried to contain the political damage.

“I don’t know that I got any answers from you today,” Rep. Mike Kelly, RPa., told Miller. “I am more concerned today than I was before.”

At one point in the day’s hearing, Treasury IG George said he had told the department’s general counsel about his investigation on June 4, 2012, and Deputy Treasury Secretary Neal Wolin “shortly thereafter.” But, George cautioned, those discussions were “not to inform them of the results of the audit. It was to inform them of the fact that we were conducting the audit.”

After the hearing, inspector general spokeswoman Karen Kraushaar said George “informed Department Treasury offi-

cials that we were looking into the IRS’ handling of applications for tax-exempt status, partly due to allegations raised by conservative organizations.”

Kraushaar said the disclosure was part of a routine briefing about the office’s activities.

The Treasury Department issued a statement Friday saying officials first became aware of the actual results of the investigation in March of this year, when they were provided a draft of George’s report, a standard practice.

George’s disclosure came before the House Ways and Means Committee in the first of several congressional hearings on the matter. He was joined

by Miller, who spoke publicly about the controversy for the first time.

Both defiant and apologetic, Miller did little to subdue Republican outrage in hours of intense congressional questioning, acknowledging agency mistakes in targeting tea party groups but insisting agents broke

no laws and there was no effort to cover up their actions.

Miller was contrite as he apologized for the actions of agents who singled out conservative political groups for additional, often burdensome scrutiny.

“First and foremost, as acting commissioner, I want to apologize on behalf of the Internal Revenue Service for the mistakes that we made and the poor service we provided,” he told the committee. “The affected organizations and the American public deserve better.”

But the hearing turned prickly when Miller insisted he did not deceive Congress, though he repeatedly failed to reveal the controversy last year when he was asked about it by lawmakers even after he had been briefed.

“I did not mislead Congress or the American people,” Miller said.

The administration is on the defensive for a trio of issues that are threatening to derail the presi-

dent’s second-term agenda. In addition to the IRS case, President Barack Obama and other officials are being pressed about last September’s terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya, that killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans, and the government’s seizure of Associated Press telephone records as part of a leaks investigation.

“Listening to the nightly news, this appears to be just the latest example of a culture of coverups and political intimidation in this administration,” said Rep. Dave Camp, R-Mich., chairman of the Ways and Means Committee. “It seems like the truth is hidden from the American people just long enough to make it through an election.”

Committee Democrats were also critical of the IRS, but several took offense at Camp’s assertion that this matter is part of a wider problem within the administration. They noted that there has been

no evidence so far that anyone outside the IRS was involved in targeting conservative groups.

“If this hearing becomes essentially a bootstrap to continue the campaign of 2012 and to prepare for 2014, we will be making a very, very serious mistake,” said Rep. Sander Levin of Michigan, the top Democrat on the panel.

Levin said Lois Lerner, who heads the IRS division that makes decisions about tax-exempt groups, “should be relieved of her duties.”

Lerner is the IRS official who made the scandal public May 10 in what Miller said was a planned event at a legal conference.

“The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knows them that trust in him.”

(Nahum 1:7 AKJV)

Commentary

Assaulting our core values F

inally, an issue Republicans and Democrats can agree on: The Justice Department went too far in secretly obtaining phone records from the Associated Press that covered parts of two months and more than 20 separate lines.

The department says it needs the records to investigate how AP uncovered a story about a foiled terrorist bomb plot in Yemen. And White House press secretary Jay Carney was correct in saying “a balance needs to be struck” between two competing interests: the country’s right to know and its right to be safe.

But on this one, the Obama administration lost its balance and crash-landed.

Here’s Michael Steel, a spokesman for Washington’s top Republican, House Speaker John Boehner: “The First Amendment is first for STEVE AND COKIE a reason. If the Obama adROBERTS ministration is going after reporters’ phone records, they better have a damned good explanation.”

And here’s Sen. Pat Leahy, the Vermont Democrat who heads the Judiciary Committee:“The burden is always on the government when they go after private information, especially information regarding the press or its confidential sources. ... I am concerned that the government may not have met that burden. I am very troubled by these allegations and want to hear the government’s explanation.”

This bipartisan outrage is totally justified. The role of the press as a watchdog and whistle-blower is more vital than ever. The White House has a rapidly growing ability to bypass the media filter and communicate directly with the public. This White House has raised that power to a whole new level by creating what might be called the OBN, the Obama Broadcasting Network, which uses a combination of tweets, texts, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook to feed favorable information to its supporters.

That’s a positive trend when it engages citizens more deeply in the democratic process. But it has a downside.

Direct communication is not scrutinized and not accountable. Questions go unasked, facts unchecked, biases unrevealed.

It falls to independent journalists to do that asking, checking and revealing. In order to perform that role, they sometimes have to rely on anonymous sources who fear retribution if their identities are disclosed. And a Justice Department that raids reporters’ phone records on such a massive scale can poison and paralyze that whole process.

News organizations are under tremendous financial pressures these days, and investigative reporting is extremely expensive. The AP, a nonprofit cooperative owned by other news outlets, still has the resources to maintain a robust investigative staff. An attack on them is an attack on all journalists everywhere.

Steven Aftergood, an expert on government secrecy at the Federation of American Scientists, is absolutely right in calling the AP case “an astonishing assault on core values of our society.”

That assault is part of a pernicious pattern. In our entire history, before Obama became president, there were only three cases of an American government prosecuting a source for disclosing classified information. Since he took office, there have been six cases and more investigations are underway.

News organizations have a profound obligation to take national security seriously, and most of them do — consulting regularly with military and intelligence agencies and even withholding information when those agencies can make a compelling case for the dangers of disclosure.

In fact, AP did exactly that on the Yemen story.

By its own account, AP delayed publication of the story when government officials said it would “jeopardize national security” and only released it after those “concerns were allayed.”

But that still wasn’t good enough for the Justice Department. They went after AP anyway, and in the process might well have violated their own guidelines. Those guidelines say that subpoenas can only be issued in extraordinary circumstances — when a clear crime has been committed and the government cannot obtain evidence of that crime in any other way. Even then, subpoenas are supposed to be drafted “as narrowly ... as possible,” and news organizations are generally told in advance, so they can negotiate a deal or challenge the summons in court.

None of that happened here. The subpoenas are extremely broad, and they were issued in secret, preventing AP from challenging them until they had already been executed.

In 49 states, journalists are largely protected by “shield laws” that limit government’s investigative power. But there is no federal shield law, and as this case demonstrates, there should be.

Governments have a right, and an obligation, to safeguard national security. They do not have a right to intimidate journalists who are trying to hold them accountable for their actions.

For stars, ‘Hangover’ series a game changer

Mom dreads rivalry between daughter and her new sibling

BY MICHAEL CIDONI LENNOX AP Entertainment Writer

DEAR ABBY: I am the mother of a 5-year-old daughter I’ll call Mandy.

Her father and I separated when she was 16 months old and now we are divorced. I am newly engaged to a wonderful man and very happy.

I have just learned that my ex is having a baby boy with a woman he has stated he does not love and isn’t even in a committed relationship with. I would like to protect Mandy from any pain this might cause her because she is a Daddy’s girl.

How should I deal with this and maintain my composure regarding the sibling who will now forever be a part of my daughter’s life (and mine)?

— STRESSED OUT IN SAN DIEGO

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Four years ago, Bradley Cooper had built a solid reputation as a scene-stealing supporting player. Ed Helms was best known for his sweet but buffoonish Andy on “The Office.” And few, besides comedy-club bookers and his own family members, could wrap their mouths around the last name of Zach Galifianakis.

Then came “The Hangover,” which would go on to become the highestgrossing R-rated comedy in North American box-office history. A 2011 sequel would take in more than half-abillion dollars worldwide. And next week comes the third and allegedly the last of the trilogy of films about friends on road trips gone extremely awry.

Folks still have trouble pronouncing Galifianakis but the careers — and lives — of all three co-stars have been changed forever by the series.

“I never would have gotten ‘Hangover II’ if it wasn’t for ‘Hangover I,’” joked Helms in a recent joint interview with his cast mates. ‘“The effect it’s had on my life, from a career standpoint, it just is off the charts. I’ve gotten to do some really great, cool, fun stuff that I never would

have been able to do,” Helms said.

Those include two well-reviewed 2011 low-budget comedies, “Cedar Rapids” and “Jeff Who Lives at Home.”

Before “Hangover,” Galifianakis was somebody — making a living as a stand-up comic, whose credits included his own Comedy Central Presents special. But that success was nothing compared to what would come. “Well, you know, financially,” Galifianakis said, winding up for a Mother’s Day joke. “It (was) really great to be able to pay to get her a saltand-pepper shaker set.”

Asked Cooper: “Set?” Helms: “Salt AND pepper?”

Galifianakis: “For years it was just salt, just the salt shaker.”

“Not even the shaker,” added Cooper, “just the salt in a Ziploc (bag).”

“So now I can afford a set,” Galifianakis continued, laughing. “So that’s how it’s changed my life.”

Cooper’s star was already on the rise before “Hangover,” after having had done a number of TV series (including five seasons on “Alias” and starring in Fox’s short-lived “Kitchen Confidential”). He acted opposite Julia Roberts and Paul Rudd on Broadway in “Three Days of Rain” (2005), and made a strong impression as a maid of honor’s hotheaded boyfriend in the big-screen “Wedding Crashers” (2005).

Then came roles in Jim Carrey’s” Yes Man” (2008) and the ensemble romcom, “He’s Just Not That Into You” (2009).

In fact, Cooper was already such hot stuff, he’d hosted “Saturday Night Live” some four months before the first “Hangover’’’s release.

And yet, Cooper said, the “Hangover” series also changed the course of his career.

“The truth is, ‘The Hangover’ sort of equally hit us all,” he noted, pointing to film studio Relativity Media’s giving him the lead in his first major bigscreen drama, “Limitless” (2011), opposite Robert De Niro. “If I had not been a part of a movie that was financially lucrative, there’s just no way,” Cooper explained. “And then, following the success of ‘Hangover II,’ I don’t think I could afford to do four movies where you just don’t get paid that much.”

Among them: “Silver Linings Playbook,” for which he earned an Academy Award nomination as best actor.

“We’ve also just learned about ourselves,” Cooper said. “We’ve all grown a lot. There was the movie and then what happened with the movie, and then being about to go all over the world. I had never done that before ...

It’s been a multi-faced learning experience.”

Dark clouds hang over air shows after budget cuts

BY DAVID SHARP Associated Press BRUNSWICK, Maine (AP) — Patty Wagstaff is a Hollywood stunt pilot, threetime U.S. aerobatic champion, inductee to the National Aviation Hall of Fame and favorite on the air show circuit. One of her tricked-out planes is on display at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum.

But this weekend, she’s grounded.

Federal budget cuts that eliminated military flying acts triggered the cancellation of dozens of air shows, meaning lost income for performers, air show announcers, concessionaires, vendors and others who depend on air shows and the millions of spectators.

The cancellations also mean disappointed fans, fewer events that celebrate aviation and inspire youngsters and lost military re-

cruiting opportunities.

“This is as American as apple pie,” said Sean Tucker, another top aerobatic pilot, from Salinas, Calif. “It’s the Indianapolis 500, the Fourth of July, and ‘Top Gun’ rolled into one.”

Air shows pump about $1.5 billion into the economy and draw nearly three times more spectators than NASCAR events, according to the International Council of Air Shows.

And the biggest acts are the Navy Blue Angels and Air Force Thunderbirds, the precision flying teams whose performances were abruptly canceled April 1, along with the Army skydiving team, military flyovers, demonstration flights and even static displays.

The cancellations caused by automatic budget cuts known as sequestration sent ripples through the industry, because the jet teams anchor most shows in which they

perform.

Without them, organizers of major air shows like Wings over Wayne at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in North Carolina and Skyfest 2013 at Fairchild Air Force Base in Washington state scheduled for this weekend, coincidentally on Armed Forces Day, opted to cancel.

Large air shows like those feature pilots pulling seemingly death-defying maneuvers in all manner of aircraft from biplanes to jets, precision formation flying, skydivers jumping from planes and, of course, screeching military jets pulling high-G maneuvers.

One of Wagstaff’s signature moves is to use her plane’s propeller to clip a rib-

Not everyone loved sleepaway camp

Beaty-Rogers announcement

This May 15 photo shows Lauren Russ in Chicago reading letters that she wrote home as a child from sleepaway camp begging her parents to come and get her. While many children enjoy attending overnight camp, Russ is one of a number of adults who look back on the experience with less-than-fond memories of feeling homesick and lonely. Russ’ tearful letters home to mom and dad are so famous in her family that her parents even read them at her wedding shower 10 years ago.

He is currently employed at Farmington High School as a football coach. He received his bachelor’s degree in sports administration at Ball State University.

The couple is planning a June 8 wedding at Stillwater Valley Golf Club and will be residing in Belleville, Mich.

NEW YORK (AP) — When the school year ends a few weeks from now, millions of kids will head off to sleepaway camp for a summer filled with color wars, kayaking and bunk life. Most will have a great time, some will make friends for life, and many will look back on the experience fondly.

But amid these happy campers is another group of veterans who recall sleepaway camp quite differently. These were the kids who cried every day and sent letters home begging to be picked up. They were lonesome, miserable, bullied; hated the bugs, hated the pool. Many refused to ever go back, and decades later, they can recall their suffering in visceral detail — from poison ivy to wretched food.

“Oh did I hate overnight camp,” recalled Lauren Russ, 43, who lives in Chicago. “I cried every day and wrote two letters home a day asking my parents to come get me.”

Russ’ mom and dad saved those notes and even read some of them aloud at her wedding shower 10 years ago. “I got another letter from you,” reads one of the heartwrenching lines in Russ’ schoolgirl’s script. “Every time I get a letter I cry and become very homesick.”

What was so bad about camp? Let Russ count the ways: “I’ll never forget the first night I had to sleep in a tent. I hated the public showers, I hated sharing a room with several other girls, I hated the anxiety of packing and saying goodbye.”

For Kelsey Tomascheski, 48, of Santa Clara, Calif., camp memories center on bad food. “I will admit that I was a picky eater, but the problem was more on quality,” said Tomascheski. “I could only handle so many bland spaghetti feeds, toosalty chicken strips, and soggy fries.

Usually halfway through the week I gave up and only ate PB&J at all three meals.”

Some unhappy campers hated bunk life. “It was dirty,” recalled Gerry Cotten, 25, a website developer in Toronto. “I was always into computers, and some sort of computer camp probably would

have been fun, but sleeping in an ancient old wooden cabin, with disgusting washrooms a fiveminute walk away, wasn’t really appealing.”

The great outdoors didn’t hold much charm either: “Taking a dip in the lake each morning instead of having a shower wasn’t really for me. They called it the Polar Dip.” According to the American Camp Association, nearly 9 million kids under the age of 18 attend one of the country’s 7,000 overnight camps each summer, with stays ranging from a week to two months. Research on the association’s website suggests that going to camp can build confidence, selfesteem, social skills, independence and a sense of adventure.

But for some campers, the experience was more like the funny 1963 hit song performed by Allan Sherman: “Hello Muddah, hello Fadduh, here I am at Camp Granada. Camp is very entertaining. And they say we’ll have some fun if it stops raining.”

Kim Cooper, 46, hated the structured activities.

“They said ‘You need to go make lanyards now,’” she recalled. “Why do I need a lanyard?” She preferred “hiking solo in the woods looking for interesting wildlife.”

But other campers thought that was weird, and Cooper soon found herself “surrounded by a group of scary big kids who were shoving me around and calling me Moses” — because of a stick she carried on her treks.

“I had no alternative but to bite one of them,” she said. Not surprisingly, she was soon sent home.

But Cooper didn’t grow up to be a hermit in the woods. In fact, she makes a living dealing with

an adult, Strauss says, he’s loved wilderness expeditions, and even though he hated the camp pool, he’s become an Ironman athlete who goes “swimming in the ocean for miles.”

Maybe, he observes, some kids just aren’t “ready to separate” from mom or dad when they’re first sent to camp. “Eventually we do grow up and learn independence but everyone is different and has their own pace,” he said.

So what’s the take-away for parents, given that some campers never get over being homesick, others grow to enjoy camp, and some who hate the experience as kids became adventurous adults?

Fran Walfish, a family psychotherapist in Hollywood who writes for Parents magazine’s “Ask the Expert,” doesn’t recommend sleepaway camp for kids under 9 unless they are very outgoing and transition easily, or unless an older sibling is at the same camp. Even with older kids, she recommends sending them to camp with a good friend so they have a built-in buddy.

And if you get tearful letters or calls home, “do not ever leap abruptly to rescue,” she advises. But do call the camp, and “if the trend is not getting better by day three or four, that is cause for concern.”

Some kids have more separation anxiety than others, and a depressed child who can’t eat or sleep shouldn’t be forced to stay away.

But it’s also important to make sure kids don’t spend the summer watching TV and playing videogames. Fortunately, Walfish notes, there’s an alternative: Day camp, where they “can sleep in their own beds at night.”

Others also note that being miserable at summer camp is not a sign that someone’s going to be meek or fearful as an adult. Ryan K. Croft, 29, of Arlington, Va., was once a “mama’s boy” who cried himself to sleep at camp.

But he grew up to found an international adventure travel company, leading more than 100 group trips to 20 countries on four continents.

“My family likes to say I was a late bloomer and just needed more time than others to find my way,” he said. “I personally just think it’s coincidental or irony at its finest.”

Sometimes the problem with sleepaway camp was a simple mismatch. One woman was sent to a Bible camp even though her family never went to church. Jason Fischbach, 23, was sent to a Jewish camp in New York, but “I didn’t know the prayers. I couldn’t tell the same stories as other kids, and I didn’t fit in at all. I was bullied for being different.”

Some kids hated camp at first but over the course of several summers grew to like it. Kevin Strauss, 43, of Leesburg, Va., cried all the time at his first camp, at age 7. Other kids made fun of him, and he even got into a fight. “I can still remember it 36 years later,” he says. His second time away, he got poison ivy. “I spent a lot of time at the infirmary because it felt like someone was there to take care of you, kind of like your mom,” he said.

But his third time, as a sixth-grader, was “fantastic,” recalled Strauss, founder of a website called FamilyeJournal.com. As

Edison among eleven honored Honey, I moved the kids with 2013 Award for Excellence ave you discovered that you and your family have to relocate? Even if you’ve contacted a real estate agent, found a great home, and feel prepared for the move, your children may not share your enthusiasm.

Experience shows there can be two emotions at play, depending on your child’s age – fear or anger. Young children may fear the unknown – where will they go to school? How will they make new friends? Where will they play and have fun?

Show them how they’ll continue all their activities in their new community.

Visit the school. Spend time KATHY HENNE in the park, and drive them Re/Max Realtors through the neighborhood where other children are playing.

If you’ve got teenage kids,you may face resentment about moving. They feel more established in their schools, sports, and friendships.Accentuate the positive – maybe the sports program is one of the best in the state, and maybe their best friend can visit over school breaks.

If you can move during the school year, so much the better. They’ll immediately begin making new friends, instead of spend potentially lonely months during a summer vacation.

Explain that you’re making transitions in your activities and relationships, too, and how excited you are to develop new interests and learn about your new home city together.

Children are amazingly adaptable – they may just surprise you! Enjoy your journey together!

If you know somebody who is having trouble making their house payment, have them call the Kathy Henne Team.

Kathy has earned the prestigious Certified Distressed Property Expert (CDPE) designation, having completed training in foreclosure avoidance and short sales. More and more lenders are willing to consider short sales because they are much less costly than foreclosures.

Edison doesn’t have to look far for coach Davis to lead Chargers spikers

BY ROB KISER Sports Editor rkiser@dailycall.com

When Edison Community College went looking for a volleyball coach after Faye Barhorst resigned this fall, it didn’t have to look far.

Chris Davis will take over as Edison coach after six successful years as Piqua High School coach.

Davis was 76-57 at The Piqua Lady Indians Piqua and advanced to the Youth Basketball Camp district finals in four of six (grades 4-6) will be held seasons coaching the Lady June 10-13 from 10 a.m. to Indians.

Lady Indians to hold camp

His daughter Jasmine ended a recordsetting career as Piqua setter this year. “ M y plan was just take it easy DAVIS and be able to go watch her wherever she decided to play,” Davis said. “Once she made her decision, then I talked to Chip (Edison athletic director Chip Hare) and made my decision.”

Right now, Davis’ priority is on finding players — and he is confident he can do that.

“It is something like eight days until Piqua gets out of school,” Davis said. “So, yes, I would say it is pretty late to be find-

ing players. But, that is where my focus is right now.”

And Davis has plenty of insight on that — and is helped by the fact this area is a hotbed for high school volleyball.

“I am very familiar with the GWOC, which has a lot of great programs,” Davis said. “Plus, my time coaching with Atlantis (JO volleyball). I have met a lot of players that way.”

Davis knows playing in the Ohio Community College Athletic Conference will involve some traveling — with Sinclair being the only member that is less than a 90-minute drive.

Cincinnati pitcher Tony Cingrani fires a strike Friday night.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Domonic Brown drove in the tiebreaking run on an infield grounder in the eighth and the Philadelphia Phillies snapped the Cincinnati Reds' six-game winning streak with a 5-3 victory on Friday night.

Jimmy Rollins hit a two-run homer and Cliff Lee threw seven sharp innings for the Phillies, who've won four of five.

Joey Votto hit a tying solo homer off Antonio Bastardo in the eighth, and Jay Bruce connected for a tworun shot for Cincinnati.

Lee gave up two runs and six hits, striking out seven. Justin De Fratus (2-0) got two batters out in the eighth and Jonathan Papelbon finished for his eighth save in eight tries.

Korda leads at Mobile Bay Webb one back

Bradley stays in front at Nelson

MOBILE, Ala. (AP) — Jessica Korda shot a 7-under 65 to take a one-stroke lead over Hall of Famer Karrie Webb after the second round of the Mobile Bay LPGA Classic.

Korda had seven birdies in her second straight bogey-free round to reach 13 under on The Crossings course at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail's Magnolia Grove complex.

The daughter of former tennis players Petr Korda and Regina Raichrtova, the 20-year-old Korda won the 2012 Women's Australian Open for her lone LPGA Tour title.

Webb also had a bogey-free round, birdieing the last three holes for a 63. The 38-year-old Webb won the last of her 38 LPGA Tour titles in 2011. The Australian played alongside Korda and Brittany Lincicome.

Chella Choi was two strokes back at 11 under after a 66.

Sydnee Michaels had a courserecord 62 to join Pornanong Phatlum and Thidapa Suwannapura at 10 under. Phatlum shot a 65, and Suwannapura had a 67.

Defending champion Stacy Lewis was 4 under after her second straight 70.

IRVING, Texas (AP) — Keegan Bradley again bogeyed Nos. 1 and 18 in the second round of the Byron Nelson Championship.

Unlike the first round, Bradley didn't set a course record. But he still finished with a three-stroke lead.

Bradley started and ended his round Friday with those bogeys, part of a 1-under 69 that got him to 11-under 129, the lowest 36hole total at the Nelson since 2001.

"I'm almost more proud of this round than yesterday because I didn't feel comfortable all day," said Bradley, whose opening 60 included his only bogeys at those same holes in the middle of that round. "I don't know what it was, I can't put my finger on it but, you know, I bogeyed the first hole. I was a little uncomfortable and then I settled in and hit some really good shots."

Tom Gillis, who shot 63 in the first group of the day off the No. 10 tee, and Sang-Moon Bae (66) were tied for second.

A stroke further back were 2012 PGA Tour rookie of the year John Huh (64), Ryan Palmer (68) and 2011 Masters champion Charl Schwartzel (70).

Schwartzel had an opening 63 See BRADLEY/Page 11

Reds rookie starter Tony Cingrani allowed three runs and five hits in five innings.

After Cincinnati tied it in the eighth, the Phillies answered in the bottom half against Sean Marshall (0-1). Michael Young worked his third walk of the game with one out. Ryan Howard followed with a check-swing, infield single.

Jonathan Broxton came in and hit Delmon Young to load the bases.

Brown then hit a grounder up the middle that shortstop Zack Cozart fielded on the second base side. Second baseman Brandon Phillips tried to barehand Cozart's flip and dropped it for an error.

Young crossed the plate with the go-ahead run and Howard scored

Former U.S. Open champ dies at 82 Venturi recently inducted into golf ‘Hall’ (AP) — Ken Venturi, who overcame dehydration to win the 1964 U.S. Open and spent 35 years in the booth for CBS Sports, died Friday afternoon. He was 82.

His son, Matt Venturi, said he died in a hospital in Rancho Mirage, Calif.

Venturi had been hospitalized the last two months for a spinal infection, pneumonia, and then an intestinal infection that he could no longer fight.

Venturi died 12 days after he was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame.

He couldn't make it to the induction. His sons, Matt and Tim, accepted on his behalf after an emotional tribute by Jim Nantz, who worked alongside Venturi at CBS. "When dad did receive the election into the Hall of Fame, he had a twinkle in his eye, and that twin-

kle is there every day," Tim Venturi said that night.

Venturi was all about overcoming the odds.

A prominent amateur who grew up in San Francisco, he captured his only major in the 1964 U.S. Open at Congressional, the last year the final round was 36 holes. In oppressive heat, Venturi showed signs of dehydration and a doctor recommended he stop playing because it could be fatal.

Venturi pressed on to the finish, closed with a 70 and was heard to say, "My God, I've won the U.S. Open."

He had a severe stuttering problem as a child, yet went on to become one of the familiar voices in golf broadcasting.

He began working for CBS in 1968 and lasted 35 years.

"Doctors told his mother he will never

speak," Nantz said at the Hall of Fame induction.

"He will never be able to say his own name. That's what drove him to golf, to sit on a range, beating balls, hearing himself in total clarity in his head, 'This is to win the U.S. Open.' And he overcame that with great will and determination, and became the longest-running lead analyst in the history of sports television."

Venturi played on one Ryder Cup team and was U.S. captain in the 2000 Presidents Cup team.

As an amateur, he was the 54-hole leader in the 1956 Masters until closing with an 80, and he was runner-up at Augusta National in 1960 to Arnold Palmer, who birdied the last two holes.

Venturi was born May 15, 1931, in San Francisco, and he developed his game at Harding Park Golf Course.

Browns sign quarterback

Bradley Continued from page 9

Hoyer gets deal Brian Hoyer signed his two-year contract with the Browns on Friday after agreeing to terms on Thursday, the club announced.

Tight end Garrett Hoskins was waived to create a roster opening.

Hoyer, Jason Campbell and Thaddeus Lewis are battling for two backup spots.

Reds Continued from page 9 on a headfirst dive on Carlos Ruiz's sacrifice fly for a 5-3 lead.

The Reds closed to 3-2 when Bruce connected in the sixth after Phillips led off with a double.

They tied it when Votto took Bastardo deep to right-center leading off the eighth. Bastardo, who normally works the seventh, was pitching in the setup role because Mike Adams is day to day with a mid-back strain.

Bastardo left after Bruce hit a one-out single.

De Fratus came in and nearly gave up a go-ahead extra-base hit to Todd Frazier, but right fielder Delmon Young made a leaping catch at the warning track.

Rollins blasted a 3-1 pitch out to left to put the Phillies up 2-0 in the third inning. He is batting .375 (9 for 24) in his last six games.

Lee, a good-hitting pitcher, helped himself with a leadoff double in the bottom of the fifth. Lee knocks balls out of the park routinely in batting practice, and just missed his third career homer when his drive to right bounced high off the wall.

He hustled into second after trotting down the first-base line, and appeared slightly annoyed the ball didn't go out.

Lee advanced to third on a sacrifice by Rollins and scored on Michael Young's two-out triple to deep left-center for a 3-0 lead.

The Reds had chances in the first two innings, but couldn't get a key hit.

Lee stranded five runners, striking out Cozart to leaves the bases loaded in the second.

NOTES: An MRI revealed a strain in the middle of Adams' back. ... The Phillies recalled RHP B.J. Rosenberg from Triple-A Lehigh Valley and optioned LHP Raul Valdes down. ... Rollins is tied with Chase Utley for the team lead with 16 extrabase hits. ... The Reds are 8-3 on the road since losing eight in a row away from home in April. ... Frazier is hitless in his last 19 at-bats. ... Cincinnati swept a three-game series at home vs. the Phillies last month. .. Bronson Arroyo (3-4, 3.76 ERA) takes the mound for the Reds against Kyle Kendrick (41, 2.47 ERA) on Saturday afternoon.

Carl Edwards won the pole for the NASCAR All-Star race Friday.

Edwards pays tribute to late NASCAR driver

and was the closest to Bradley after the first round.

"It was a bit up and down out there," said Schwartzel, who had three birdies and three bogeys.

"Bit of a frustrating day, but I suppose it's the mix."

Bradley, whose first PGA Tour victory came as a rookie at the Nelson two years ago, started his second round with a drive that missed the fairway at the 458-yard first hole, then left his approach short of the green.

"The first hole is probably the easiest hole out here," he said. "I don't know why I keep making bogey on that hole."

At No. 18, he drove right into rough under the trees again near a cart path.

He punched the ball, which rolled and flirted with water to the left before settling into a swale behind the green.

He chipped to 6 1/2 feet, but then missed the par putt.

"I've got a four-shot lead, so the last thing I wanted to do was plop it in the water. I bailed out," said Bradley, who also won the PGA Champi-

onship in 2011 and the World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational last year. "I didn't hit that bad of a shot it just got in the wind. I thought it was going to be way left of where it was, but I'm going to hit good ones Saturday and Sunday."

In between those bogeys, Bradley had another bogey at No. 6, four birdies and several nice par-saving shots, including a twoputt from 35 feet after driving into the trees at No. 14 and a blast to 4 feet of the hole from a greenside bunker at No. 15.

Guan Tianlang, the 14year-old amateur from China, missed the cut with rounds of 70 and 77.

After driving into the rough and then hitting into two bunkers for a double-bogey 6 at No. 12, his third hole Friday, Guan had a 19-foot birdie putt on the following par 3. He then had five consecutive bogeys.

Guan last month made the cut at the Masters and then again in New Orleans, becoming the youngest player ever to make the cut on the PGA Tour.

Wins pole for All-Star race at Charlotte Golf CONCORD, N.C. (AP) past his pit stop when his Kyle Busch called last — Carl Edwards captured the pole for the Sprint AllStar race at Charlotte Motor Speedway, paying tribute to the late Dick Trickle along the way.

Edwards, the 2011 winner in the exhibition event, completed three laps and a four-tire pit stop Friday night in 1 minute, 51.297 seconds.

Kurt Busch will start alongside Edwards on the front row Saturday night.

Greg Biffle, Kyle Busch and Joe Logano round out the top five.

Edwards had Trickle's name written just above his window, a tribute to the 71-year-old former NASCAR driver who died Thursday of what authorities said was a self-inflicted gunshot wound in Boger City, N.C. Edwards said many of his crew members are from Wisconsin, where Trickle grew up and became a famous short-track driver.

"We felt like we needed to do something to honor him," Edwards said. "I don't know that I deserved to have his name above my window."

For the first time since 2000, NASCAR waived the pit-road speed limit, allowing drivers to enter and leave the pits at high rates of speed.

"This was awesome," Edwards said. "I vote that we do this at every race track."

Not all agreed.

Judging the speed needed to stop in the pit stall threw off some drivers.

Defending All-Star race champion Jimmie Johnson was among a handful of drivers who skidded

breaks locked up. He was forced to back up, losing valuable time.

"I didn't have the car under control in the breaking zone," said Johnson, who'll start 18th.

Kevin Harvick's pit stop was even worse. He overshot his pit stall and didn't back up far enough before his crew jumped the wall and began working on a tire change with his car still slightly over the line.

His time was disallowed and he'll start at the back of the field Saturday night.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. was in second place after 16 cars but a loose lug nut cost him a 5-second penalty and dropped him out of the top 10.

Saturday night's AllStar race encompasses 90 laps, including four 20-lap segments leading up to a final 10-lap shootout for $1 million.

NASCAR has installed new rules to discourage drivers from sandbagging.

Last year's champion Jimmie Johnson won the first segment and hung back in the pack for the other three segments knowing he'd secured a top four starting spot in the final 10-lap shootout.

That strategy worked well for Johnson, who jumped out to a big lead on the 10lap shootout and cruised to an easy — and uneventful — victory.

This year's segment winners aren't guaranteed a top four spot, and drivers will enter a mandatory pit stop prior to the 10-lap final segment based on their average finish in the first four segments.

year's rules "stupid" and said he encouraged NASCAR to change them.

"I think the rules are right this year," Busch said. "Last year, you're exactly right, you win a segment and you roll in the back. We all knew that and that was the strategy you have to play. Jimmie (Johnson) played it the best obviously. For this year, that's entirely out the window."

Track owner Bruton Smith also added some incentive by offering an additional $1 million incentive if a driver can win all four segments and the 10-lap shootout, meaning it's conceivable a driver could take home $2 million.

Busch estimated the odds of a driver accomplishing that feat are about "300 to one."

The top two finishers in the Sprint Showdown and the winner of the fan vote will fill out the 22-car field.

Danica Patrick is among those hoping to drive her way into the field.

There have been some rumblings from fans that NASCAR clarified its rule so that the fan vote winner doesn't have to finish on the lead lap of the Sprint Showdown to qualify for the All-Star race as a way to ensure Patrick gets in.

"From my understanding that was a mistake on NASCAR's part earlier in the week," Patrick said.

"So, outside of that I have absolutely no idea what the rules are from the past or what they're going to be or what they've been. It's all new to me."

Continued from page 9 after losing another round-robin match at Thracian Cliffs.

Poulter, the 2001 winner, lost to South Africa's Thomas Aiken, 1 up, when the English star bogeyed the last hole after missing the fairway.

Poulter lost to Thongchai Jaidee on Thursday. On Friday morning, Jaidee beat Aiken, 1 up.

Jaidee is one of only four players to win both early matches, joining Francesco Molinari, Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano and Scott Jamieson.

The round of 16 pairing are: Branden Grace vs.

Brett Rumford; Richard Sterne vs. Chris Wood; Molinari vs. Carl Pettersson; Shane Lowry vs.

Aiken; Jamieson vs. Felipe Aguilar; Jaidee vs. Peter Hanson; Fernandez-Castano vs. Nicolas Colsaerts; and Graeme McDowell vs.

Bo Van Pelt.

MADEIRA OPEN In Santa Da Serra, Madeira Islands, Scotland's Craig Lee took a one-stroke lead over American Peter Uihlein and Chile's Mark Tullo on Friday during the suspended second round of the Madeira Islands Open.

Lee shot a 4-under 68 to reach 9-under 135 at Santo da Serra Golf Club.

Uihlein, the former Oklahoma State star who won the 2010 U.S. Amateur, settled for a 64 after playing the first 12 holes in 10 under with an eagle and eight birdies. He bogeyed Nos. 15 and 16.

Tullo had a 69. France's Thomas Levet was fourth at 7 under after a 67.

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE Saturday, May 18, 2013 There’s a strong possibility that in coming months you will become involved in an endeavor that requires secrecy. It could either bomb or turn out better than you anticipate.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Unless you think for yourself, others will do your brainwork for you. You might not be too happy about what they come up with.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Think through your moves carefully when it comes to financial dealings.

Impulsive behavior will instigate numerous errors.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) — What others think of you might be more important than usual. Be careful that you don’t do anything that could lower the high esteem in which you’re now held.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Follow a previously conceived plan for a project to the letter. On-the-spot changes could seriously gum up the works.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — By being too inquisitive, you are likely to ask questions whose answers you don’t want to hear. What you don’t know can’t hurt you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Success is likely if you continue to use the same methods that have worked well in the past. Making revisions could throw you off course.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Don’t let your ego cause you to take an unsupportable position. Your pride can get you in some extremely hot water, if you’re not careful.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Matters that affect your earnings must be given top priority. If something of a frivolous nature should pop up, put it on the back burner where it belongs.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Even though you might not get the last word in every instance, don’t let it frustrate you. If you’re patient, you’ll still be able to make your most important points.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — You’ll make good progress on your goals, though few will be completed.

Be grateful for whatever headway you do end up making.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — When socializing with friends, find the balance between cheapness and extravagance. Don’t spend more than you can afford, but don’t hold back, either.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — A situation that has been souring a close relationship with a friend can be resolved, if you’re motivated to do it.

Both parties must be forthright.

CULTURE 13 Wineries want to help raise a glass to veterans PIQUA DAILY CALL • WWW.DAILYCALL.COM

BY MICHELLE LOCKE Associated Press If you’re looking to raise a glass to veterans this Memorial Day you might consider filling it with wine that will raise funds for them, too. A number of wineries are making the veterans-and-vines connection. And if you’re not so fine on wine, there’s even a liquor — Wild Turkey — that’s gotten into the spirit with a Boots and Bourbon campaign.

At the Murphy-Goode Winery in California’s Sonoma County wine country, winemaker David Ready Jr. says linking vines and vets was natural for his family. His great-grandfather served in World War I, he had two grandpas in World War II and his late father served in the early days of Vietnam.

So when he and his team came across Operation Homefront, a national organization that provides emergency financial assistance to military families, they knew they had a fit.

“It’s an organization that’s just simply there to help out our active military families or veterans that need little things or big things,” he says.

Since fall 2011, the winery has donated more than $100,000 to Operation Homefront and is on track to donate $300,000 this year, partly through

the release of a special wine, Homefront Red, scheduled for the holiday season. A portion of the winery’s profits will be donated to Operation Homefront and distributors also have agreed to donate part of their profits.

In a second initiative, the winery ran a “grill sergeant” campaign, looking for a veteran to serve as winery chef and tour the country for barbecue events. Meanwhile, the winery is wrapping up a Facebook campaign, “A Few Goode Heroes,” in which people nominated local heroes and winners got $1,000 donated to their charity of choice while the winery donated another $1,000 to Operation Homefront. The contest ends in June with a grand prize winner who will get to have the Murphy-Goode Grill Sergeant visit their town and throw a July 4th party in their honor.

“Wine is a lifestyle,” says Ready. “It’s not just a beverage. It’s not just a food. It’s a lifestyle and it’s about getting together with friends and laughing and sharing conversations and what better what to do that than throw a barbecue?”

After all, he says, a name like Murphy-Goode takes a little living up to.

“We’re just trying to do good and be good and I think that’s really cool.”

winery in the Livermore Valley wine-growing region southeast of San Francisco, it’s all about the vets. The winery was founded in 2007 by Iraq War veteran Josh Laine, who got interested in the

business through an exgirlfriend who worked in the industry. Laine, who received three Purple Hearts, currently has 58 veterans on payroll and another 200 veterans who volunteer.

Poetry finally joining e-book revolution

The winery has been producing 3,000 cases a year but plans to ramp up to 15,000 cases. Valor produces a sauvignon blanc, chardonnay, zinfandel and sangiovese. Proceeds go to the Vets & Vines Foundation created by Laine, which employs the vets.

Working hard in the fields has “a couple of byproducts; one is camaraderie,” says Laine. Another benefit is mental and physical therapy.

“A lot of these veterans are getting back into shape; they go home tired at night. There’s a lot less fighting with their families and bills are getting paid,” Laine said, who also is in the process of adding a brewery.

McClean Vineyards, set in California’s Paso Robles wine country, is focused on helping returning soldiers with rehabilitation. McClean was founded by Vietnam War veteran Michael McClean. A Distinguished Service Cross recipient, McClean got interested in wine nine years after his return to civilian life when he enrolled in a wine class. McClean Vineyards has been open since 1993 and makes limited quantities of viognier (vee-ohn-yay, a delicate white wine) and syrah. Ten percent of proceeds from wine sales go to the Armed Forces Foundation.

Musical using Leo Tolstoy a messy thrill

BY HILLEL ITALIE AP National Writer

BY MARK KENNEDY AP Drama Writer

NEW YORK (AP) — Over the past two years, publishers have been steadily filling one of the largest gaps in the e-book catalogue — poetry.

Adrienne Rich, Allen Ginsberg, Langston Hughes and Wallace Stevens have been among the poets whose work recently became available in electronic format.And Random House Inc., W.W. Norton and several other publishers now routinely release new books in both print and digital versions, including last month's Pulitzer Prize winner for poetry, Sharon Olds' "Stag's Leap."

"In the spring of 2010, we actually formed a team to focus on books that were complicated to make into e-books, like poetry and illustrated nonfiction," says Liisa McCloy-Kelley, Random House Inc.'s vice president and director of e-book production,strategy and operations."Over the past 20 months, we really shifted into production."

The problem had been how to transfer a poem from paper to screen without either breaking a line up — a primal violation of the art form — or making the font size too small to read. It's unlikely that publishers can design a perfect solution, but they have managed to find acceptable compromises. In part, they credit advances in technology that make it easier to keep the original look intact. They also cite a technique long used in print.

The hanging indent.

The poet's worst fear is for a line to break up randomly, ruining the rhythm and mood of the verse. But publishers and poets have been agreeable to ending the line at a specific word, then creating a second, indented line, alerting the reader that the train of thought belongs with the line above.

For instance, here are the first two lines of Olds' poem "Love," as they appear in the hardcover edition:

NEW YORK (AP) — What do you get when you take a 70-page melodrama at the center of "War and Peace" and turn it into a musical? Now layer dance music onto the traditional Russian folk music.

Now put it in a tent. While you're at it, throw in a meal and strobe lights.

What you get is the thrilling and yet cluttered musical "Natasha,Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812" — a feast for the senses and an assault at the same time.

Dinner theater has never seemed as undusty.

The sung-through musical premiered at New York City's Ars Nova in a sevenweek run last year before finding a new 6,000-square-foot space in the meatpacking district. It opened Thursday.

Befitting the ultra-cool neighborhood's roots, the show packs so much in that it feels overstuffed — snowflakes fall, strobe lights pulse, actors race about and smoke pours. It sometimes drags, the food isn't as well integrated into the show as it could be,and it often feels like an art project run amok.

And yet there's no denying that creator, composer and performer Dave Malloy has crafted a daring piece of theater.

It just needs some editing.

Each ticket comes with a full Russianthemed meal — borscht, dumplings, brown bread, pickled vegetables, chicken and salmon — and a glass of wine or a cocktail. There's a full bar in back.

After the food is cleared, the 360-degree show begins. It centers on a bright young thing, Natasha, who falls for one man, only to be seduced later by another.

The 16-person cast encourages you to follow the various turns of the thick plot via helpful program notes.

The show reaches for an immersive experience by trying to erase the line between audience and performer. You may find yourself asked to pass along a love letter, caressed by a pretty young thing, temporarily share a table with an actor or watch a shot of vodka slammed down on your table by a drunken soldier.

Malloy's songs are stunning in their breadth. While the music careens from Russian folk to thumping house beats to proto-rap, the lyrics are similarly establishing an uneven tone, slipping from heart-wrenchingly un-ironic — "I love him/I love him" — to the almost mockingly helpful — "In 19th century Russia,

I had thought it was something we were in. I had thought we were in it that day, in the capital Here is how they look on an iPad 3: I had thought it was something we were in. I had thought we were in it that day, in the capital Poetry e-sales are a tiny subset of poetry sales, a perennial subset in publishing. But for publishers, and poets, it's less about commerce than accessibility. Olds says she doesn't have a lot of interest in e-books and has not seen the electronic edition of "Stag's Leap," but that she "certainly respected the fact that readers like to read in different ways." Poet Philip Levine allowed such collections as the Pulitzer Prize-winning "The Simple Truth" to be digitized, even though he also has little personal interest in e-books.

"I don't think the people who would buy an e-book of one of my books, or one of (W.S.) Merwin's books would want it other than what it's supposed to look like," Levine said.

Part of the challenge is the devices themselves, with screens varying in size and feel from Apple's iPad touchscreen to such smaller, standalone devices as Amazon.com's Kindle and Barnes & Noble's Nook.The e-book editions for Random House and other publishers will commonly include a reader's note that suggests the proper font size for a given device.

Some works are especially challenging, like Anne Carson's collection "Red Doc," in which poems begins at various points on a given page. Random House decided on a fixed format, according to McCloy-Kelley,who says that the text "cannot be enlarged without a pinch and zoom," meaning it can only be changed on a touchscreen.The verse of the late Greek poet C.P. Cavafy, who sometimes used extra spaces between words,proved so difficult to set accurately that English-language translator Daniel Mendelsohn settled for an e-book edition admittedly much different than what appeared on paper.

"You have to accommodate to a new medium in order to survive," says Mendelsohn, an award-winning author and critic. "I take the long view and say, 'It was ever thus.' When the Greek tragedies were first written down, the lines were written straight across the page, with no distinction of different speakers and no stage directions. Now, you obviously want to identify the speakers. The original way is not necessarily the ideal."

Smaller presses have cited limited budgets as a deterrent to digitizing.But a top poetry publisher, Copper Canyon Press, last year began an e-book program funded by a grant from the Paul G. Allen Foundation. Copper Canyon has issued electronic versions of collections by former U.S. poet laureates Charles Simic and Ted Kooser, along with dozens of other works.

"One of the things we've done is put a note at the beginning of the book to show which is the longest line of the poem," said Copper Canyon's e-book coordinator, Amelia Robertson. "The note demonstrates what will happen if that line is broken up and suggests the best setting on the device for keeping the line intact."

Progress is incomplete and some of the best poets of modern times remain entirely or mostly unavailable in electronic format, from Merwin and Richard Wilbur to Robert Lowell and Elizabeth Bishop.In some cases,poets prefer it that way.C.K.Williams,a prize-winning poet known for his long lines, has seen some of his work show up on the Internet and has not been encouraged.

"I'm quite horrified by how little it has to do with what I had in mind when I wrote it," Williams says. "Ultimately, it's about the words.You can say you have to sacrifice one thing for another, and I suppose I will have to accept that, because e-books are such a central part of our literary culture. But I haven't been terribly happy about it."

pioneering vintner Robert Mondavi, partnered with ONEHOPE to help the families of veterans. ONEHOPE integrates causes into products including wine and coffee. Half of the profits go to various charities. Mondavi’s ONEHOPE Wine, a zinfandel, raises money for Snowball Express, an organization that supports families and children of fallen soldiers.

But if wine isn’t your style, check out Wild Turkey Bourbon. The whiskey company has teamed up with The Boot Campaign, which supports veterans through the sale and promotion of combat boots. The “Boots and Bourbon” initiative began in April and continues through September.

Wild Turkey will be holding in-store promotions highlighting the Boots Campaign, which has a mission of raising awareness about returning veterans’ issues, as well as raising money.

Wild Turkey is donating $50,000 directly to the Boot Campaign, as well as encouraging consumers and friends in the industry to purchase 1,000 pairs of boots this year through various activities.

The Wild Turkey team, including master distiller Jimmy Russell and associate distiller Eddie Russell, will be wearing combat boots on the job to reinforce the message.

we write letters."

The addiction to recitative and use of descriptive passages grows weary and sometime seems just plain odd — "I throw my fur coat on my shoulders/Unable to find the sleeves," one character sings, as he finds the sleeves.Also it's unclear if LeoTolstoy actually wrote the immortal line, "Shut your damn mouth!"

The lack of consistency in lyrics and music may be cool but it also acts as something of a coolant. With so many styles and sounds, it's hard to get invested in the show, no matter how good the performances are.

And they're good:As Natasha,Phillipa Soo, a recent Juilliard graduate, is simply a wonder, a delicate beauty with a strong emotional voice. She's almost as pretty as Lucas Steele, a strong singer and actor with Vogue model poses who triggers electronica whenever he appears.

Malloy as Pierre may not have the greatest voice,but he compensates by unleashing the force of his acting to devastating effect. (Plus, he wrote the show, so the kid stays in the play.)

The rest of the cast fully commits, never breaking character over the 2½hour show. Costume designer Paloma Young mixes simple, beautiful period gowns and army uniforms on the featured actors, while dressing the ensemble in punk versions.

Some moments are thrilling — an opera-within-the musical that employs slow motion to hilarious effect is a sweet bit of stagecraft.And the cumulative song structure of the prologue — "Sonya is good/Natasha is young/And Andrey isn't here" — is a perfect stage-setter. Brittain Ashford also delivers a tingling "Sonia Alone" simply standing in a spotlight.

Choreographer Sam Pinkleton and Rachel Chavkin, the director who also manages the musical staging, use every available inch of Mimi Lien's ingeniously designed set and the audience's attention is always swiveling. Members of the eight-piece band are stashed in various pockets of the 199-person space and well led by Or Matias.

It is sensational, high-stakes stuff, especially as the room between tables is tiny and the speed the actors are moving is quick. Plus, there's alcohol flowing.

Somehow, all the actors find themselves under Bradley King's complicated and myriad lights perfectly in synch, even if that's in your startled lap.

Boston Symphony Orchestra names new music director BOSTON (AP) — Andris Nelsons has been named music director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra.

The chairman of the 132-year-old orchestra's trustees made the announcement Thursday.

The 34-year-old Nelsons, a native of Latvia, said in a statement that he is "deeply honored and touched" by the appointment and plans to make his first appearance in Boston as the orchestra's 15th music director in June.

Trustees Chairman Ted Kelly says Nelsons' "unique creativity and vi-

sionary instincts will bring a remarkable inspiration" to the orchestra.

Nelsons has earned distinction on both the opera and concert podiums, including those of the Berlin Philharmonic, Vienna Philharmonic, Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra and Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, and the Royal Opera House Covent Garden, Metropolitan Opera and Vienna State Opera.

James Levine was the orchestra's previous music director. He left in 2011.

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — He was a Russian-speaking truck driver who came to Idaho in 2009 to join hundreds of other Uzbekistan refugees for whom the state has become a sanctuary from violence in their home country.

But federal officials say in an indictment that Fazliddin Kurbanov also was teaching people to build bombs that would target public transportation.

It’s unclear whether those alleged targets were domestic or abroad or how far Kurbanov would have gone. Prosecutors said Friday only that they believe he is no longer a threat.

Kurbanov, 30, was arrested Thursday during a raid of his small apartment south of Boise’s downtown.

Prosecutors charged him with felonies in Idaho and Utah after an extensive investigation into his activities late last year and this year. They allege those activities included assisting a militant group in his home, Uzbekistan, a Central Asian country with a southern border with Afghanistan.

“Given his arrest, we believe any potential threat he posed has been contained,” U.S Attorney Wendy Olson said. She noted the investigation is ongoing but declined to say whether federal agents are pursuing additional arrests.

Kurbanov said little Friday during his first court appearance, where he pleaded not guilty with help from an interpreter and a federally appointed defense attorney. Kurbanov, who wore a jail jumpsuit, had dark hair and a beard that was much shorter than the one pictured in his Idaho driver’s license.

Kurbanov lists Uzbek as his first language and Russian as his second in court documents. Federal officials said they will enlist the help of an interpreter again Tuesday when he appears for his detention hearing.

Until then, Kurbanov will be held in the Ada County Jail. His trial on the three counts filed in Idaho is scheduled for July 2.

His lawyer, Richard Rubin, declined to comment.

Kurbanov is among about 650 Uzbeks living in Idaho. He was admitted to the U.S. as a refugee in August 2009, the same month he moved to Boise, said Jan Reeves, director of the Idaho Office for Refugees, citing immigration records. Kurbanov was here legally, federal officials said.

Uzbeks began coming to Idaho’s two refugee settlement centers, in Boise and Twin Falls, in 2003, Reeves said. The centers connect refugees with services such as language classes and help finding work.

The flow of Uzbeks to the state escalated around 2005, when a violent clash between protesters and the government left hundreds dead.

Kurbanov told authorities he had a job driving trucks and listed his only assets as used cars and a small amount of cash in checking and savings accounts.

On Friday, the apartment where he is believed to have lived had a sign on the door saying “Please respect our privacy.” Nobody responded to a knock.

Many immigrants from numerous countries live in the apartment complex, a series of two-level build-

KURBANOV ings across from a public high school.

Olson said she has seen Internet comments blaming Muslims living in Idaho since Kurbanov’s arrest, something she called “These inappropriate. charges shouldn’t be seen as a reflection on that community,” Olson said.

About 90 percent of Uzbeks in their home country are Muslim. Representatives of the Islamic Center of Boise, a meeting area for the region’s Muslim community, didn’t immediately return a phone call Friday.

The Idaho indictment charges Kurbanov with one count of conspiracy to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization and one count of conspiracy to give material support to terrorists and possession of an unregistered explosive device.

It alleges that between August and May, he knowingly conspired with others to provide resources, including computer software and money, to the IsMovement of lamic Uzbekistan, which the U.S. has identified as a terrorist organization. The group’s purpose is to overthrow the government of Uzbekistan, said David B. Barlow, U.S. attorney in Utah. The alleged co-conspirators were not named.

The indictment also alleges Kurbanov provided material support to terrorists, knowing it was to be used in preparation for a plot involving the use of a weapon of mass destruction.

On Nov. 15, Kurbanov possessed a series of parts intended to be converted into a bomb, including a hollow hand grenade and aluminum powder, according to the indictment.

A separate federal grand jury in Utah charged Kurbanov with distributing information about bombs. For 10 days in January, Kurbanov taught and demonstrated how to make an “explosive, destructive device and weapon of mass destruction,” the document states.

The Utah indictment, to be handled separately after the Idaho prosecution is resolved, alleges Kurbanov provided recipes for how to make improvised explosive devices and went on instructional shopping trips in Utah to help illustrate how to make the devices, Barlow said. Kurbanov also showed Internet videos on the topic, Barlow said.

Although the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan started in the 1990s with the stated aim of overthrowing the Uzbek regime and establishing an Islamic government, its goals have expanded to create a broader Islamic influence in Central Asia.

The movement’s fighters have a presence in Afghanistan’s northern provinces and in Pakistan’s Waziristan province. U.S. and Afghan officials say al-Qaeda has been building ties with the IMU.
