1 CAPTURED, 1 DEAD Hunt is over for Boston bombing suspects BY ADAM GELLER Associated Press BOSTON (AP) — Moments after investigators went before television cameras to broadcast photos of two men in ball caps wanted for the Boston Marathon bombing, queries from viewers started cascading in — 300,000 hits a minute that overwhelmed the FBI’s website. It marked a key turning point in a search that, for all the intensity of its first 72 hours, had failed to locate the suspects. While it’s unclear how much the tips that resulted helped investigators zero in, experts say it instantly turned up already intense pressure on the two men to flee or almost certainly be recognized — increasing the chances they’d make mistakes that would lead to them being exposed. The decision that led to their quarry — whether or not to make photos of the suspects public — was something of a gamble, one that investigators had to weigh carefully. Late Friday, the bloody trail at last reached an end in the Boston suburb of Watertown, when police cornered 19-year-old suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, hunkered down inside a boat parked in the backyard of a three-bedroom house, where he exchanged gunfire with police for an hour before being captured. Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis said the suspect, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, was hospitalized late Friday in serious condition. His brother, 26-year-old Tamerlan, was killed earlier Friday in a furious attempt to escape police. “It was a good decision to put this out to the public … and this would have been a calculated risk. But the intent would have been to get these guys to change their pattern” of behavior, said Martin Reardon, who spent 21 years as an FBI agent and is now a vice president of security consultant The Soufan Group. Releasing the photos

POLICE OFFICERS guard the entrance to Franklin Street during a crime scene search for the suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings, Friday in Watertown, Mass. Gunfire erupted Friday night amid the manhunt for the surviving suspect, and police in armored vehicles and tactical gear rushed into the Watertown neighborhood in a possible break in the case. where else as associated with the bombing … you would act irrationally, and that’s exactly what they did.” After three days without being able to identify a suspect by name, investigators clearly made the decision to release the photos Thursday on the belief that, without doing so, the suspects might remain at large for weeks or months, with the chance to flee or to act again, said David Weinstein, a former federal prosecutor in Miami. So with photos in hand, investigators made a choice AP Photo/Craig Ruttle deemed both necessary and A POLICE officer gives a thumbs up to another in Watertown, prudent. “And then the worst possiMass., Friday, after the second of two suspects in the Boston Marathon bombing was captured.

SHS grads join Hall of Honor Millhoff, Ross named for 2013 recognition On Friday evening, family, friends and community members filled the Sidney High School auditorium to honor this year’s inductees at the annual Hall of Honor ceremony. Doug Millhoff and Dr. Bill Ross III make up the 2013 honorees. The purpose of the Hall of Honor, celebrating its 20th year this year, remains to recognize people — living or deceased — who through their performance and achievements reflect credit on the Sidney schools, so that today’s students may find identity with the past and establish goals for the future,” said Hall of Honor Chairman Tom Milligan. This year’s ceremony marks the 19th year of the

Hall of Honor, with 107 individuals now enshrined. Each of this year’s inductees made a significant impact on the world in various fields of study and callings in life. All share a common thread; a strong devotion to their community and a passion for their field. Both of this year’s inductees are graduates of Sidney High School.

She told me all about it when I came home on leave. She also said she told our mother but was accused of lying. I immediately took my sister to the police station. The following day, our father was arrested, and my sister was placed in my aunt’s house. Mom finally got the message that her husband was molesting his daughters. She was devastated, but she has only herself to blame. When confronted by the authorities, Dad admitted everything and said he was sorry. Unfortunately, sorry wasn’t enough. My life at home was worse than the worst nightmare. No child should ever be subjected to such terror. My mistake was telling my mother, and when she didn’t believe me, not telling another trusted adult.

Drug drop-off continues Shelby County Sheriff’s Lt. Cori Steiner examines some of the prescription and over-the-counter drugs that have been left in a drop-off box in the lobby of the Shelby County Sheriff’s Office. Sheriff John Lenhart, right, said the drugs are turned over to the Drug Enforcement Agency. He said he has been pleasantly surprised by the volume of drugs being dropped off. He said it’s important to get rid of prescription drugs that are no longer being used because criminals sometimes break into homes to steal prescription drugs, and they also pose a potential danger to young children who may find them in their parents’ or grandparents’ homes. The drugs may be dropped off at any time in the box at the Sheriff’s Office on Gearhart Road.

Some residents want to retain lettering on tower MINSTER — About 20 local residents attended the Minster Village Council meeting Tuesday night to let community leaders know they want to retain the Old English lettering when the village water tower is painted. A council committee has recommended a script font be used for the word “Minster” on the water tower instead of the current font. Village Administrator Don Harrod said that at the end of a 45-minute discussion, council agreed to decide on the lettering at its next meeting, which will be held May 21. The water tower will be painted at a cost of $219,119, with work expected to begin late next month. Harrod said the tower will be sandblasted down to bear metal and then painted. He said this process will alleviate a problem with algae on the bottom portion of the tower bowel. Council approved a resolution in support of continuing tax-exempt financing for local governments. Harrod said as a means of generating more tax revenues for the federal government, consideration is being given to eliminating tax-exempt bonds for infrastructure work by villages, cities and other government units. Harrod was authorized to seek bids on village street projects. Streets to be

paved are East Seventh Street from Garfield to Paris streets; Ohio Street from Sixth to Fourth streets; Lincoln Street from Fourth Street to Lincoln Drive; and the north side of Lincoln Drive. In his administrator’s report, Harrod stated: • The Parks Department will sponsor the Pitch, Hit and Run contest at the Four Seasons Park on April 27 at 9 p.m. Registration begins at 8:15 a.m. • The village will receive $194,000 in state Issue I funds for the new raw water main in the new well field. • Recent heavy rains in the area of Second and Third streets between Lincoln and Hanover streets led to some backup of sewage in basements. He said it is believed the problem is due to storm water improperly entering a sanitary sewer line. • The Auglaize County Solid Waste District has announced its annual Household Hazardous Waste Day will be held May 11 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Wapakoneta Public Works Department. • Village residents are asked to contact the zoning administrator at (419) 628-3497 if there is a property in their neighborhood that may need addressed under the exterior property code.

ANNA — New federal resources have been awarded to the Anna Fire Department. U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH) announced Thursday that the Anna Fire Department has been awarded $54,915 for operations and safety by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Assistance to Firefighters Grants (AFG) program. “Our first responders put their lives on the

PV2 CHRISTOPHER Ammerman (left) of Anna, hugs his mom Teresa Ammerman, of Anna, at Lee’s Chicken after Ammerman surprised her with an unexpected stop home. Ammerman, an Army unit supply specialist, had been in quartermaster school at Fort Lee in Virginia and will be heading to Fort Wainwright in Alaska on May 6, where he will join the 25th Infantry 1st Striker Brigade. Ammerman’s mom did not know she would be seeing her son before he left for Alaska. Ammerman will be home for two weeks assigned to hometown recruiting for the Army but he will also spend as much time as he can with his family doing things like eating out and going to movies.

Soldier surprises mom BY TOM MILLHOUSE tmillhouse @civitasmedia.com Mission accomplished. Home on a two-week leave before leavi n g heading north to be stationed in F a i r banks, Alaska, A r m y Ammerman P V 2 Christopher Ammerman wanted to surprise his mother, who was unaware that he was coming home. From the look on her face when she turned around at Lee’s Famous Recipe on Friday to see her son in Army fatigues, it was obvious that his plan worked. Ammerman enlisted the help of his father, Dennis Ammerman, of Anna, and a family friend, Misty Sharp, of Sidney, in pulling off the surprise. Ammerman flew in from Fort Lee, Va., Friday morning and Sharp picked him up at the airport. Since Sharp usually met his mother,

Police: Man attacked officer with saw blade COLUMBUS (AP) — Police have arrested a central Ohio assault suspect accused of repeatedly hitting an officer in the face, head and arms with the blade of a large saw. Police say the Columbus officer was attacked Friday when he found the man hiding in a garage after a pursuit. Police say the injured officer was treated at a hospital and released. The suspect, a 22year-old Columbus man, was being held in jail on charges of felonious assault and assaulting a peace officer. Police said he had been sought initially because he was suspected of firing a handgun at his children’s mother as she drove away after a fight. A bullet hit the vehicle, but there was no report of any injuries in that situation.

Teresa Ammerman, for lunch on Friday, that seemed like a good time to pull off the surprise. His father said he knew for a couple of weeks that his son was coming home to perform hometown recruiting duties before heading out for what could be a three-year assignment at Fort Wainwright, Alaska. They decided to keep his wife in the dark about the visit. “It was tough to not let the cat out of the bag,” he said. The younger Ammerman said “we left some hints” about the surprise visit, but his mother didn’t catch on. “It was a total surprise,” she said as she enjoyed a family lunch. Surprising his mother was just the first big event of the day, Ammerman also planned to surprise his girlfriend, Katie Miller, of Wapakoneta, Friday evening at her job. It has been a few months since he was home after completing basic training. Military service is a tradition in the Ammerman family. His father served first in the Army and then joined the Navy. He retired from the Navy. Both of his

grandfathers also served in the military. The younger Ammerman admits he’s not fond of cold weather, but he’s looking forward to serving at Fort Wainwright, which is known as the “Home of the Arctic Warriors.” A recent graduate of quartermaster school, the 2005 graduate of Anna High School will be serving with the 25th Infantry Division at Fort Wainwright. With an eye on seeing the sights out West, Ammerman will make a two-week drive to report for duty in Alaska. His parents said they are considering taking a vacation trip this summer to see their son in Alaska. Ammerman said he is scheduled for a 36month stint at Fort Wainwright, he realizes that with the turmoil in the world, he could be deployed for duty if trouble erupts in one of the many hotspots. “I’m in the infantry and if they get the call, I have to go no matter what,” he said. For now, Ammerman said he plans to spend as much time as possible with his family during the next two weeks.

COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio’s unemployment rate was unchanged in March but remains below the national average, according to data released Friday. The seasonally adjusted rate of 7.1 percent was the same as the revised February rate and up just slightly from 7 percent the previous month, according to the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services. The static numbers so far this year followed months of small, steady unemployment declines in 2012. Ohio’s unemployment rate remains below the national rate, which was 7.6 percent in March. That was down from 7.7 percent in February and 8.2 percent in March 2012. The number of nonagricultural jobs in the

main steady since July 2011. Ohio leaders say they continue to expect slow growth as the economy continues to recover after the Great Recession. Goods-producing industries lost 1,400 jobs during March, according to Friday’s report. The 3,300 decreases in construction jobs outweighed a 1,800 increase in manufacturing jobs and 100 jobs added in mining and logging. Private service-providing industries lost 15,400 jobs, and employment also decreased in leisure and hospitality, and professional and business services. There was growth in trade, transportation and utilities, and financial activities. Federal and local governments shed 3,600 jobs, while state government employment remained constant.

4 adults shot in head, found in townhome ID’d AKRON (AP) — Autopsies show two young men and two young women found dead in a northeast Ohio townhome died of gunshot wounds to the head, the Summit County examiner’s office said Friday. The deaths were ruled homicides as investigators sorted through information from interviews with neighbors and others, hoping to pick up clues about what happened to the four people found dead a day earlier in a housing complex in Akron, about 35 miles south of Cleveland. Police released few details, and there was no word on any possible motive or suspect. Akron Mayor Don Plusquellic said in a statement Friday that it appeared the dead were not victims of a random act of violence. “The victims appear

to have been targeted for reasons still under investigation,” he said. Police found the bodies after responding to an emergency call Thursday afternoon. The neighbor who called 911 said a man had banged on the door, frantically seeking help to contact police about someone dead in a basement, according to a recording of the 911 call. The medical examiner’s office identified the men as 24-year-old Ronald Roberts and 23year-old Kem Delaney,

NATION/WORLD TODAY IN HISTORY BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Saturday, April 20, the 110th day of 2013. There are 255 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On April 20, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln signed a proclamation admitting West Virginia to the Union, effective in 60 days (June 20, 1863).

Judge jails texting juror SALEM, Ore. (AP) — A judge in Oregon noticed an unexpected glow on a juror’s chest while the courtroom lights were dimmed during video evidence in an armedrobbery trial. The juror, it seemed, was texting. Marion County Circuit Judge Dennis Graves cleared the courtroom and excused all jurors except 26year-old Benjamin Kohler. According to a news release from the Marion County Sheriff’s Office, Kohler had no explanation for his actions. Jurors in Oregon are given explicit instructions at the outset of each trial not to use cellphones in court. Graves held Kohler in contempt, and Kohler spent most of Tuesday and Wednesday in the county jail. He was released Wednesday night.

Experts say ricin easy to make OXFORD, Miss. (AP) — The ricin mailed to the president and a U.S. senator is relatively easy to make but generally can’t be used to target a large number of people, experts say. A Mississippi man, Paul Kevin Curtis, 45, has been charged with mailing letters laced with the naturally occurring toxin to President Barack Obama, U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker and a Mississippi judge. Curtis has denied making the ricin and mailing the letters. The FBI has not yet revealed details about how the ricin was made or how lethal it may have been. It was in a powdered form inside the envelopes, but the FBI said no one has been sickened by it so far. A senate official said Thursday that the ricin was not weaponized, meaning it wasn’t in a form that could easily enter the body. More than a dozen officials, some wearing hazardous materials suits, were searching the home Friday where Curtis was arrested in Corinth, Miss. FBI spokeswoman Deborah Madden would not say if authorities have found ricin or materials used to make it in

FEDERAL AGENTS wearing hazardous material suits and breathing apparatus inspect the home and possessions in the West Hills Subdivision house of Paul Kevin Curtis in Corinth, Miss., Friday. Curtis’ home, and officials have not provided details about how Curtis may have either obtained or made the ricin. Law enforcement agents should be able to test the toxin found in the letters to determine its potency and purity, as well as learn what chemicals may have been used to extract it from widely available castor beans, said Murray Cohen, the founder of the Atlanta-based Frontline Foundation, which trains

workers on preparedness and response to bioterrorism and epidemics. Those chemicals might then be able to be linked to purchases made by Curtis or materials found in his home. Curtis’ ex-wife has said he likely didn’t have the knowhow to make ricin, and she did not know where he would buy it because he was on disability. But Cohen said ricin was once known as “the poor man’s bioterrorism” because

the seeds are easy to obtain and the extraction process is relatively simple. “Any kid that made it through high school science lab is more than equipped to successfully make a poison out of this stuff. Any fool can get recipes off the Internet and figure out how to do it,” Cohen said. Those seeds, which look a bit like coffee beans, are easy to buy online and are grown around the world; they are often used to make medicinal castor oil, among other things. However, using the seeds to make a highly concentrated form of ricin would require laboratory equipment and expertise to extract, said Raymond Zilinskas, a chemical and biological weapons expert. “It’s an elaborate process,” he said. Cohen said ricin is not common because other poisons, such as anti-freeze, can easily be bought at a store. And it’s not a weapon of choice for mass casualties because it would need to be eaten or inhaled to be most deadly. “You can put this stuff in an envelope, but how are you going to get the intended person to inhale or ingest it?” Cohen said.

At least 2 killed in China earthquake BEIJING (AP) — At least two people were killed Saturday when a powerful earthquake jolted China’s Sichuan province near the same area where a devastating quake struck five years ago, with state media warning the casualty toll could climb sharply. The government’s seismological bureau said the quake hit shortly after 8 a.m. in Lushan county in the city of Ya’an, home to China’s famous pandas. The news office for the Sichuan provincial government said on its official microblog account that two people were reported killed in Lushan and that two townships had suffered severe damages. A state-run China News Service, quoting unnamed local media, said more than 100 people may have been killed or hurt in

the earthquake. The seismological bureau initially measured the quake at magnitude-7, while the U.S. Geological Survey recorded it at 6.6-magnitude, powerful enough to cause severe damage. Its depth was shallow, less than 13 kilometers or 8 miles, which could magnify the impact. The official Xinhua News Agency said that the quake rattled buildings in the provincial capital of Chengdu 115 kilometers, or 70 miles, to the east. There are reports that the airport in Chengdu was closed shortly after the earthquake, and State-run China Central Television reported the Chengdu airport was temporarily closed, and that delays and flight cancellations were expected.

Social media users who said they were in Lushan county posted photos of collapsed buildings and reported that water and electricity had been cut off. A man who answered the phone at the Ya’an city government said telecommunications were cut and that medical and rescue teams are on the way to the area. “I felt the strong quake this morning in my office. All drawers of the desk opened and some stuff on the table fell on the floor,” said the man, who refused to give his name, as is usual with low-ranking Chinese government officials. The epicenter lies along the same Longmenshan fault where the devastating 7.9-magnitude quake struck in May 2008, leaving more than 90,000 people dead or missing and presumed dead.

CAPTURED stitute of Technology police officer, a carjacking, the shooting of another transit police officer and a block-by-block manhunt that led officials to shut down Boston and many of its surrounding suburbs. But all agreed the photo release was pivotal in breaking open the case, because it instantly deprived suspected bombers Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, and his brother, Dzhokhar, of time, anonymity and options. By late Friday, many of the details in the chain of events that led to the older brother’s death and the capture of the younger one after a massive manhunt were still unclear. It began just after 5 p.m. Thursday, when investigators released the photographs and video of two unidentified suspects and asked for the public’s help. Just over five hours later, shots were heard on the campus of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, across the Charles River from Boston in Cambridge. Ten minutes later, an MIT campus police officer who was responding was found shot multiple times in his vehicle and was later pronounced dead. Soon after, two armed men carjacked a Mercedes SUV in Cambridge, holding the driver for about half an hour before releasing him unharmed. Police pursued and the men inside the vehicle threw explosive devices from the windows, while exchanging gunfire. A Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority officer was wounded in the firefight and the older brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, was fatally injured and pronounced dead. The hunt then continued for the younger brother, who fled on foot. In the pre-dawn hours Friday, dozens of police officers and FBI agents converged on Watertown after gunshots and explosions were heard, or-

THIS MONDAY, April 15, photo provided by Bob Leonard shows third from left, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who was dubbed Suspect No. 1 and second from left, Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev, who was dubbed Suspect No. 2 in the Boston Marathon bombings by law enforcement. This image was taken approximately 10-20 minutes before the blast. dering people to stay inside. But the search proved fruitless, leading authorities to shut down Boston’s mass transit system and urge residents of several cities and towns to stay indoors. State Police spokesman Dave Procopio said police realized they were dealing with the bombing suspects based on what the two men told the carjacking victim during their getaway attempt. The chaos of the pursuit contrasted sharply with the sweeping, methodical investigation that began almost immediately after the Monday afternoon bombing that killed three and wounded more than 180, and was marked by officials’ notable reluctance to disclose information. In the hours and days after the bombing, dozens of investigators in white hooded suits carefully combed, cataloged and photographed evidence at the scene, even canvassing the roofs of nearby buildings to search for items blown into the air by the bomb’s force. Investigators gathered hours of videotape footage from security cameras that scanned

the area around the bombing and appealed to the public to turn in their own video and photos, for help in determining the sequence of events and identifying a suspect. They then used software to search for certain types of objects or people matching a height and weight description. The technology can also spot patterns that human analysts might not notice, such as a car that turns up in different places, said Gene Grindstaff, a scientist at Intergraph Corp., a company that makes video analysis software used by the FBI and other law enforcement agencies. “Back in the days of 20 years ago, you were lucky if you had video and it was probably of poor quality and it took a tremendous amount of enhancement. Today you have a completely different issue,” Grindstaff said. “Here’s the first thing that the computer was told: Tell me if you can find the same people at both of those (bombing) locations,” said Taylor, the criminologist. Additional parameters would further narrow the

search to, for example, look for people carrying backpacks. “It’s kind of like going through a series of strainers and filters,” Taylor said. But with the video winnowed down, the process required examination frame-by-frame, a laborious process done by an FBI unit called the Operational Technologies Division, said Joe DiZinno, former director of the FBI lab in Virginia. By Thursday, once facial recognition software and agents had narrowed the search to images of two young men, investigators had to make a decision about how to proceed. Meanwhile, the Tsarnaev brothers were already on edge. At an auto body shop near their home, the younger brother, Dzhokhar, had often stopped to talk with owner Gilberto Junior about cars and soccer. But on Tuesday, the day after the bombing, the normally relaxed young man showed up biting his nails and trembling, Junior said. The mechanic told Tsarnaev he hadn’t had a chance to work on a Mercedes he’d dropped off for bumper work. “I don’t care. I don’t care. I need the car right now,” Junior says Dzhokhar Tsarnaev told him. By Thursday afternoon, the brothers had to know their options were narrowing quickly. And then the FBI released their photos to millions of viewers across the city, and around the world via newspaper, television stations and websites. The time to move was now. “I think this developed rather quickly last night,” State Police Col. Timothy Alben said late Friday. “I would wager that most of the activity that was printed in the media yesterday forced them to make decisions or take actions that ultimately revealed who they were.”

How to keep homes healthy April is Healthy Homes Month and the Ohio Department of Health (ODH) encourages you to learn about creating a safe and healthy environment in your home. A healthy home is clean, safe, well-maintained and well-ventilated. It is free from pests, mold, moisture, dust, dirt and other household contaminants. Hazards in the home include lead, mercury,

radon, environmental tobacco smoke, carbon monoxide, mold, allergens, pests and safety issues. ODH’s Ohio Healthy Homes and Lead Poisoning Prevention Program takes a comprehensive approach to helping Ohioans maintain a residence that is safe and healthy. The seven elements of a healthy home include: • Keep it dry: Pre-

vent water damage and mold growth by checking your plumbing, roof and draining systems for leaks. • Keep it clean: Keep all areas free of clutter and contaminants. Wash kitchen surfaces daily, bathrooms, floors and horizontal surfaces weekly and vacuum often using a wellmaintained vacuum with a HEPA filter. • Keep it safe: Insmoke/carbon stall monoxide detectors and

fire extinguishers, while taking other safety measures to prevent injuries (such as slips, trips, falls and burns). • Keep it well-ventilated: Supply fresh air and eliminate the concentrations of moisture, radon and carbon monoxide in your home. • Keep it contaminant-free: Reduce your exposure to lead and other contaminants in your home (i.e. volatile organic compounds

Seniors to meet in New Bremen

WIN gets organized Women In Networking held its April meeting at the Hampton Inn and heard Janet Jackson of Organization Solutions as she gave tips for organizing a desk and office. “Clutter is postponed decisions,” Jackson said, and noted that disorganization costs $20 per hour and it wastes a person’s time for 30 minutes a day, according to statistics. To get and stay organized, she said to set boundaries, make decisions quickly, change habits and behaviors and keep it simple. She talked about grouping responsibilities and then making a list of each role and grouping files for those roles. She also showed everyone how to make a “thought and conversation log” for miscellaneous items that do not quite fit into one particular file. The computer programs One Note and Evernote are good tools to help stay organized, she said. Jackson holds classes in conjunction with Sinclair Community College on Microsoft programs and the GO System. Her information can be found at www.OrganizationSolutionsLLC.com. Lunsford, Connie Deanna Kindell, Julie Rourke and Christi Thomas received prizes from Jackson for various aspects of organizing clutter. Thomas also received the monthly Chamber of Commerce gift certificate. The May meeting will be at the Sidney Fire Department and is tentatively scheduled to be about gardening. The June meeting will feature Channel 7 news anchor Cheryl McHenry on June 24 at the Sidney Conference Inn. WIN is a council of the Sidney-Shelby County Chamber of Commerce and provides a forum for the exchange of ideas among women in business, a network of support, and programs of interest, which promote success to the membership.

Hibbett launches mobile site Company moving Hibbett Sporting Goods Inc., based in Birmingham, Ala., and with a store in Sidney, has announced the launch of it’s new mobile website and “Get Your Thumb in the Game” campaign. On the new site, customers will have the ability to browse products, redeem coupons and manage their MVP Rewards account. “The vast majority of consumers are now using mobile devices to search and shop for products,”

said Joy McCord, vice president of marketing at Hibbett Sporting Goods. “Soon to be located in 30 states, our network of 850 stores gives us a great presence at the local level, and trends suggest a very strong tie between mobile usage and local shopping. Our objective is for the mobile experience to compliment the instore experience, and this site is built to ensure just that.” The new Hibbett mobile site and accompanying campaign, designed

by Mobile, Ala.-based Red Square Agency, encourages customers to “Get your thumb in the Game” by introducing a number of fun-loving “athlete-inspired” thumb characters. The characters are representative of a football, basketball, baseball, soccer and softball player. “It’s gratifying to have a role in both the digital product and its promotion,” said Rich Sullivan, chief executive officer and executive creative director of Red Square Agency. “Our partners at

Hibbett have allowed us to have fun on both sides. For the campaign, we thought ‘since people are going to be using their thumbs a lot on the new mobile site, let’s give an athletic identity to the thumb as a clever introduction.’” Customers interested in visiting the new mobile website can do so by visiting hibbett.com on their mobile device. The website is friendly to devices using both the iOS and Android operating systems.

AMP receives A1 rating Moody’s Investors Service affirmed the A1 issuer rating on American Municipal Power, Inc. (AMP). In addition to affirming the A1 rating, Moody’s identified the outlook as stable. The issuer rating is significant in that it is a total entity rating as opposed to a specific bond issue rating. This rating is relied upon by power supply counterparties, banks and financial institutions doing business with AMP. An A1

rating as opposed to a lower rating means AMP and its members will realize significant savings in power supply costs and credit and financing costs over the long term. In the rating affirmation, among other things, Moody’s recognized AMP’s established role in providing competitive and reliable wholesale power supply to its diverse membership; the financial strength of AMP member utilities;

AMP’s credit monitoring system; AMP’s strong financial liquidity position; and its strong strategic planning to diversify and manage member power supply. Moody’s noted that AMP is providing a more diverse resource mix for its members and reducing reliance on market purchases, creating more competitive and reliable options. “This rating is very

Business filing Auto dealers donate numbers reported to Fisher House DAYTON — The Dayton Area Automobile Dealers Association board of directors presented a $20,000 check to the Fisher/Nightingale Houses Inc. at a luncheon on Feb. 20 kicking off the 2013 Dayton Auto Show by supporting the men and women of the U.S. military. Giving back to the Dayton community is a long-standing tradition for the dealers and considered an extension of their mission. Last year. the dealers made a donation to Dayton Children’s Hospital. Fisher Houses provide comfortable housing free of charge for military families so they can be close to a loved one during a hospitalization. With 60 houses on VA bases across the country and overseas, some 19,000 families received housing last year alone. Christopher Stanley, the executive director of the Fisher/Nightingale Houses Inc. expressed gratitude for the association’s support and said their donation will cover more than 800 nights in

the house, or 1 1/2 months of operating expenses. “No one plans for a crisis of a loved one who is suddenly hospitalized,” Stanley said. “The stress of the situation, not knowing how long it will take and how much it will cost — no one plans for that. Families can lose that source of income while bills mount up with no end in sight. We provide a home environment for them at no cost. One that supports them and lifts that burden so they can focus on taking care of their loved one and their families.” For more information about the Dayton Area Automobile Dealers Association, visit www.daada.org or www.fnhi.org.

COLUMBUS – Secretary of State Jon Husted has announced that 8,808 new entities filed to do business in Ohio in March 2013. These numbers are down slightly compared to March 2012, in which 9,204 new entities filed with the Secretary of State. The Secretary of State’s office has assisted with 23,965 new business filings to date in 2013 (JanuaryMarch). This is an increase from the same time period last year, in which there were 23,800 new business filings. Though the most visible role of the Secretary of State is that of chief elections officer, the office is also the first stop for individuals or companies who want to file and start a business in Ohio.

While recognizing these numbers can’t provide a complete picture of Ohio’s jobs climate, they are an important indicator of economic activity that Secretary Husted hopes will add to the discussion of how to improve the state’s overall climate for business. New business filings are classified as forms filed with the Ohio Secretary of State that declare the formation of a business entity, including for-profit, non-profit and professional corporations, limited liability companies, partnerships, limited partnerships and limited liability partnerships. Filing as a business in Ohio does not guarantee the company will begin operations, be profitable or create jobs.

A there any way to tell the few years ago, when she exact age that I’ll be when was in her 50s, my sister I’m done with it? — C.G. developed a deep vein ANSWER: Indeed, the thrombosis. DNA testing

found that she had a genetic mutation Factor V Leiden R506Q, and she was advised that she must take warfarin for the rest of her life. The genetic mutation may have been inherited from my father’s side of the family, as he had a stroke in his 60s and his brother had a DVT in his leg in his 50s and had part of his leg amputated as a result. His brother’s son died as a result of a stroke at about the age of 60. I discussed this with my family physician years ago, but apparently at that time DNA testing was expensive, and it was not thought to be of benefit to me, as it could not be prevented. What is the current view on DNA testing for genetic mutations that cause DVT? — B.D. ANSWER: Factor V Leiden mutation is a change in the gene for blood-clotting factor V,

and having this mutation increases the risk for abnormal clotting of the blood, such as a deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolus. Testing family members of those with genetic predisposition for blood-clotting abnormalities makes sense only if it changes what you would do about it. Having the mutation increases the risk of developing a DVT or PE by about 0.5 percent per year. The risk of preventive treatment, such as warfarin, is higher than that, and I don’t recommend treatment with warfarin for someone with the mutation. Consequently, doing the testing may not be advisable. However, there are some times when it may be useful to know if there is increased risk for blood clotting, such as if a woman were considering taking birth-control pills.

100 years April 20, 1913 George Kraft, proprietor of the White Front saloon and restaurant on the west side of the square, was instantly killed in an automobile accident at the corner of Grove Street and St. Marys Avenue between 6:30 and 7 o’clock this morning. Oscar Amann and Earl Dunn, who were riding in the tonneau of the car, escaped without any injury. It is believed that a faulty steering gear caused Mr. Kraft to lose control of the car as he was making the turn from Grove Street into St. Marys Avenue, and the vehicle rolled over and down the 20 foot embankment on the east side of the street. The vehicle was reported going about 10 miles per hour at the time. ————— The Monarch Machine Co. yesterday shipped a large, specially constructed lathe to Chicago, Ill.

ODDS & ENDS VIENNA (AP) — Volunteers are searching for a pair of wallabies hopping through Austria — yes, Austria. The kangaroo-like marsupials, which are smaller than “roos” and primarily found in Australia, escaped from a farm in the Upper Austrian countryside, about 110 miles northwest of Vienna. Thursday was the third day of the

quest to find them. There are actually three wallabies on the loose — owner Gabrielle Schrammel says the female has a joey in her pouch. Austrians often express irritation at being confused for Australians while abroad, and mail meant for Australia occasionally surfaces in this central European Alpine country.

‘Get the Carp Outta Here’ Wildlife workshop in Piqua April 26 tourney set at Grand Lake The carp in Grand Lake St. Marys will be targeted in a “Get the Carp Outta Here” fishing tournament May 17, 18 and 19 at Grand Lake St. Marys. Fishermen can use conventional tackle or a bow and arrow to get the carp, and up for grabs is more than $5,000 in prize money. This is the third year for the tournament. There will be prizes for most carp caught in the bow and bait categories, and prizes for the biggest carp caught. And through the generosity of the Kiwanis Clubs, special prizes will also be awarded in categories for kids under 16 years old. In addition, this year there will

be 23 tagged carp in the lake, each worth $100. The cost to participate is $10 for adults and $5 for kids under 16. The tournament is part of the effort to bring Grand Lake St. Marys back into ecological balance. Carp and other rough fish are overly abundant in the lake.

Reducing the number of carp is one small piece of the plan to improve water quality. The carp population increases turbidity in the water, making it difficult for the native fish population to breath and find food. Bottom-feeding carp can also uproot aquatic plants, reduce aquatic habitats and re-suspend phosphorus from the lake bottom. The carp themselves also produce a great amount of phosphorus, all of which contribute to blue-green algae growth. Interested fishermen can call 1-800-860-4726 for more information or to have a tournament brochure sent to them.

PIQUA — An educational wildlife workshop will take place April 26 at the Upper Valley Career Center, Piqua. “The Good, the Bad and the Hungry” will deal with with wildlife conflict in your landscape on April 26.

FORECAST

Inland Lakes and Rivers CENTRAL OHIO Deer Creek Lake (Fayette, Madison, and Pickaway counties) White bass males are being caught at this 1287 acre lake south of Columbus. As water temperature increases more males and females will move up the creek to spawn. Fish the creek north of Cooks - Yankeetown Road, use small jigs and twisters, or small rooster tails. Most of these fish will measure eight to 12 inches. Crappies can be caught around submerged woody cover using minnows suspended under a bobber. Crappies must be nine inches long or longer to keep. Channel catfish can be taken on chicken livers, shrimp, night crawlers and cut shad. NORTHWEST OHIO Sandusky River (Sandusky County) — The river level is high and the water clarity is poor. Recent fishing has been poor due to the water level. Most anglers use a floating jig head fished on an 18-24 inch leader with a 1/4 to 1/2 oz. weight depending on the water current. Anglers seem to have the best success tipping the jig head with a twister tail of white or chartreuse color. The best area to try is around the Miles Newton Bridge. The daily bag limit is 4 fish. Do NOT keep any walleye shorter than 15

inches. Please take a ruler with you. Maumee River (Lucas County) — The river level is near flood stage and walleye fishing has been poor as a result. Depending on weather, the river may be fishable later this week; however, the water quality will likely be poor. Once the water level begins to recede, try the Orleans Park and White Street Landing area. Most anglers use a floating jig head fished on an 18-24 inch leader with a 1/4 to 1/2 oz. weight depending on the water current. Anglers seem to have the best success tipping the jig head with a twister tail of white or chartreuse color. The daily bag limit is 4 fish. Do NOT keep any walleye shorter than 15 inches. Please take a ruler with you. SOUTHWEST OHIO Adams Lake (Adams County) — Anglers are catching trout by using wax worms, Berkley Power Bait, or corn as bait. Cast into areas with submerged trees and brush. Keep the bait about two to three feet deep. C. J. Brown Reservoir (Clark County) — Walleye fishing continues to improve. Try early morning boat angling fishing jigs tipped with a night crawler over the mid-lake humps and in the north end of the lake to catch some nice walleye. Remember

Shelby County Whitetails offering $1,000 scholarship

there is a 15-inch minimum size limit and daily bag of six on walleye. Bluegills can be caught around the rocky shorelines of the dam and the marina. Also, try fishing the wooden piling structures near the boat ramp and campground. Use wax worms or redworms for bluegill, fished under a bobber. Anglers can still catch white bass along the rocky shorelines. Try using small spinners, jigs, or minnows. Tawawa Lake (Shelby County) — Located near Sidney will be stocked with rainbow trout ranging from 10-13 inches on April 18. This is a 4 acre lake; no boats allowed. Try fishing for trout with maggots, wax worms, redworm, trout dough baits, minnows, and spinners.

The spring and youth turkey seasons are open statewide with the exception of Lake La Su An Wildlife Area in Williams County, which requires a special hunting permit. In a new tagging procedure implemented this year, hunters will need to make their own game tag to attach to a wild turkey. Game tags can be made of any material (cardboard, plastic, paper, etc.) as long as it contains the hunter’s name, date, time and county of the kill. Go to the Turkey Hunting Resources page at wildohio.com for more information on changes to the game check process.

The 2012 hatch should produce more jakes (1year-old male turkeys) this year and will help offset the poor 2011 hatch. However, the woods may be quieter with fewer 2year-old toms (male turkeys). These turkeys are generally the most vocal gobblers and readily located by hunters. harvested Hunters 17,657 wild turkeys during the 2012 youth and spring turkey seasons. The total checked in 2011 was 18,162 wild turkeys.

HR off Chapman beats Reds CINCINNATI (AP) — Justin Ruggiano hit a solo homer off Aroldis Chapman in the ninth inning Friday night, sending the Miami Marlins to a 2-1 victory that snapped the Cincinnati Reds’ winning streak at four games. It was a stunning moment for the Marlins, who have the worst record in the majors at 4-13 and had only four homers ‚Äî fewest in the majors ‚Äî when Ruggiano connected off the Reds’ spotless closer for his second homer in two games. Chapman (2-1) hadn’t allowed a run in his eight previous appearances, giving up only three hits while fanning 13. Ruggiano connected on a 3-1 pitch, driving it deep to center for his third homer. No one else on the Marlins has more than one. It was only the seventh homer Chapman has allowed during his four seasons in the majors. Left-hander Mike Dunn (10) retired the last two batters in the eighth. Steve Cishek gave up a hit in the ninth while earning the Marlins’ first save of the season. Nick Green had three singles and scored the Marlins’ first run on a raw, wet night. It was 46 degrees at the first pitch, and showers moved through during the game. Marlins right fielder Gian-

CINCINNATI REDS catcher Ryan Hanigan prepares to tag out Miami Marlins’ Donovan Solano (17) trying to score at home in the third inning of a baseball game Friday in Cincinnati. carlo Stanton wore a ski mask under his cap. Reds starter Mat Latos remained winless in four starts this season, which include two blown saves behind him. He allowed one run on six hits and struck out 10, fanning pinch-hitter Greg Dobbs with runners on second and third to end the Marlins’ seventh inning and keep it tied. Marlins starter Kevin Slowey remained winless in the majors since 2010, a streak that includes 10 losses,

several injuries and very little help from his offense. The Marlins were shut out in his first two starts this season, and managed only one run in his third. This time, the major leagues’ least-productive offense got two runners thrown out at the plate and managed one run while Slowey was in the game. He left after six innings, having allowed four hits. Slowey held down an offense that had scored 11 runs

in each of its last two games. Shin-Soo Choo opened the Reds’ first with a triple and scored on Joey Votto’s sacrifice fly. That was it for Cincinnati. By contrast, the Marlins got chances against Latos and wasted them. Miami got him a run in the third, but could have had more. Nick Green and Donovan Solano singled, and Slowey advanced them with a sacrifice bunt. Placido Polanco singled to right for one run, but Solano was thrown out at home by Jay Bruce. Juan Pierre opened the sixth with a double and advanced on a fly out. He was out at the plate when he tried to score on Stanton’s grounder to shortstop Zack Cozart with the infield drawn in. Pierre lowered his shoulder, but catcher Ryan Hanigan held on after making the tag. NOTES: The Marlins designed struggling reliever John Maine for assignment and called up RH Tom Koehler from Triple-A New Orleans, where he was a starter. He’ll move into Maine’s role as a long reliever for now. ... University of Cincinnati football coach Tommy Tuberville threw a ceremonial pitch. ... Latos doubled with two outs in the fifth — his first hit in seven at-bats this season —but was stranded.

QUOTE OF THE DAY “Hopefully, our focus coming into these playoffs changes; we’re going to be ready for it. We’re excited about it and we’re ready to go.” —Forward Tim Duncan on the San Antonio Spurs, who head into the playoffs having lost seven of their last 10 games.

Sheriff warns about warm-weather scams

Unveiling the feast With a wave of his arm, the Rev. Jim Egbert (right), of Cincinnati, gives the sign for Kirk Stienecker, of New Knoxville, and other helpers to unveil a feast of traditional German food at the New Knoxville Historical Society’s annual dinner meeting held recently at the New Knoxville First United Church of Christ. The German meal was created under the supervision of Egbert. Included in the meal were Bavarian pork roast, mettwurst and fried cabbage. The guest speaker was Dr. Don Heinrich Tolzmann, of Cincinnati, who gave a presentation on German immigration and heritage in western Ohio.

Board to seek public input on possible levy NEW BREMEN — During a recent meeting, members of the New Bremen Board of Education discussed gaining community input on a possible bond levy to construct a new building. Board member Mandy Niekamp suggested that an effort begin soon to gather community input on a levy and proceed with placing a bond levy on the November ballot. She said that way, if community sentiment is against the issue, there would be time to take it

off the ballot. Two possible sites for the building would be at the site of the current elementary-junior high building and at the high school site. Superintendent Howard Overman said while the original funding was 49 percent from the state and 51 from local funds, the state funding may only be one-third because state funding is only for a kindergarten through sixth-grade facility, and any facilities for seventh- and eighthgrade students would not

be covered. The board also discussed a simulation of what the district’s state report card might be using this year’s data as an example. While the district received its 13th consecutive “excellent” rating this year, Overman said the simulation revealed under the new letter-grade method, the district would receive some “C” grades. Overman said the area of students with disabilities lowers the district’s rating under the new system.

WAPAKONETA — Auglaize County Sheriff Al Solomon has issued a warning for residents of the county to be alert to common scams that are associated with the warm-weather season. “Typically in this season we receive complaints where citizens are victims of fraudulent repairs to the home,” said Solomon. These repair scams involve spouting, tree trimming, house or barn painting, asphalt driveway resurfacing, or lightning rod replacement. The fraudulent repairs consist of substandard or nonexistent work being done. The

victim is often not aware of the fraud until after the contractor is paid and long gone. “We have already received calls that these persons are in the county scamming people,” he said. Residents should also be concerned over people showing up at the door offering their services where their real intent is to look around the property to see what valuables are present only to return later when the resident is not home to steal the items. In the past, this scam has been prevalent with people posing as antique dealers offering to buy

Minster Band Boosters kick off fund drive to replace instruments MINSTER — The Minster Band Boosters have kicked off their fund drive to raise money to replace some band-owned instruments. The band is currently using multiple instruments that date back as far back to 1906 and the 1920s. Many dents have occurred in these instruments, which makes them unable to be tuned. This affects the entire sound of the music performed by Minster’s band, boosters said. The Minster band has grown more than 400 percent in the last 13 years. There are 130 members in this year’s band. Sponsorships for new instruments include an eighth note ($50 to $99 donation), quarter note ($100 to $249 donation), half note ($250 to $499 donation), and whole note ($500 and up donation). The group is hoping to replace 15 instruments at a total cost of $127,102. Instruments to be replaced include a 1906 tuba, 1925 French horn, 1927 French horn and 1928 contra bass clarinet. Recently, a flier explaining the need to replace these instruments was mailed to every home business in the 45865 zip code. For more information about becoming a sponsor, contact Lynn Kitzmiller at (937) 417-4384 or Marna Arling at (419) 6283725.

valuable items from residents. There are many local and area firms that do provide these reputable services, Solomon said. Be suspicious of door-todoor vendors who have no connections to this area. Don’t be rushed into making a decision based on price discounts. Do not pay money up front to businesses that have no physical address or connection to the area. Obtain an estimate, contact the Better Business Bureau, and/or your local law enforcement agency to check if the business is legitimate or reputable.

Village gets grant NEW KNOXVILLE — Members of New Knoxville Village Council learned during a recent meeting that the village has received a $58,000 grant from the Ohio Public Works Commission for various street projects. Among the street projects planned is the slurry sealing of West South Street, West German Street, Bielefeld Street, Walnut Street, Kuck Street and South East Street. Also planned is an asphalt overlay on Werheim Street and a short section of North Mill Street from Ohio 219 to the American Legion parking lot. Council gave second reading to an ordinance that would permit the village to assess a collection fee for delinquent income

tax payments. The amount of the fee has not been established. An ordinance to authorize Administrator Rex Katterheinrich to pursue the sale of a bucket truck was approved. A meeting to review the cost-of-service/rate study with Courtney and Associates has been set for May 14 at 6:30 p.m. Mayor Keith Leffel asked council members to examine properties in the village to see if any need to be brought into compliance with property maintenance policies. He also asked Katterheinrich to obtain quotes for replacing curbs on various streets that need to be replaced. Council member Robert Jaynes also noted there is a need to repair potholes in village streets.

Author to sign books CELINA — Author Ted Goodwin will hold a book-signing Thursday at 6 p.m. at Potter’s House and Java Nation, 108 S. Main St. Goodwin, a resident of Celina, will be available to sign copies of his book, “Lessons from a Headache.” Proceeds of the book sales will go to CALL Food Pantry and Harvest Table Soup Kitchen. On June 23, 2009, Goodwin experienced the beginning of what became a continuous migraine headache. Reduced to tears by the intensity of the pain in his head, he fi-

nally drifted off into a fitful sleep. For more than three years, every hour of every day, Goodwin has been dealing with a chronic daily migraine headache. In that time, he has learned not only about headache treatments and care, but has also gleaned 19 life lessons to apply in any situation. His hope for readers is that they would live life to the full, no matter what the source of pain in their lives may be. Goodwin shares the process of his growth and his own experience with pain and healing.

HOROSCOPE BY FRANCES DRAKE For Sunday, April 21, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Ego battles with bosses and authority figures are likely today, because you feel highly independent t. (In truth, Aries people don’t like to be told what to do.) TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Quarrels about secrets or something that was hidden from you might erupt today. You are probably dealing with someone who refuses to help you, which is why you are upset. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Quarrels with others, especially in group situations, might arise today because people are hotheaded and not willing to compromise. Avoid nastiness by staying light on your feet. (You’re clever with words.) CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Disputes with people in authority are hard to avoid today. Perhaps this will give you a chance to clear the air and put your cards on the table. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Avoid controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues today. People are just looking for a reason to have a fight. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Differences about how to share something or divide an inheritance might arise today. This is a poor day to discuss jointly held property. But it’s a good day to get rid of what you no longer need. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Be patient with partners and close friends today, because arguments can easily erupt. Who needs this? Not you. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Don’t force your views on others today. Instead, use your strong energy to clean up your workplace. Get rid of what is surplus and no longer necessary. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Be patient with children. This is also a rocky day for romance, so try to avoid arguments, because they will be nasty. Take it easy. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You might want to clean up garbage areas or attack plumbing problems at home today. It’s a good day to recycle and get rid of useless stuff. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You have a lot of mental energy today if you want to study something. However, don’t coerce others to agree with your point of view. Easy does it. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Avoid arguments about money and possessions today because they will arise easily. In part, it’s because you are so hung up on one idea that it crowds out everything else in your mind. YOU BORN TODAY You appreciate beauty and have excellent taste. You’re a caring individual who strives for excellence in standards. You want the approval of others. You have a good head for money and are energetic in your daily activities. Most of you, especially females, are generous and giving. In your year ahead, you will work hard to construct or build something. Your rewards soon will follow.

Sensory gardens:

Create a haven for the senses

AP Photo/ Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, William Cullina

THIS UNDATED publicity photo provided by the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens shows the Lerner Garden of the Five Senses in Boothbay, Maine. Visitors partake in a sensory outdoor experience immersed in a broad array of fragrant, colorful, edible and textured plantings. There is a reflexology labyrinth, sound stones, benches, walkways, raised beds and water features, allowing visitors of all abilities to explore the garden. garden for kids as circuitous as you can, she says, with winding paths and structures that double as hiding places. Bean tepees and sunflower houses are a big hit. SIGHT A swath of cool blues, purples and whites provides a soothing, tranquil atmosphere. Warm yellows, oranges and reds are more energetic. Varieties of green — pines, grasses, ornamental shrubs — can bring a Zen vibe to the garden. You may want to add some artistic elements as well, especially if you have small children: hanging ribbons or mobiles, or ornamentals that attract wildlife. Consider bee balm, red columbine, lantana and trumpet vine to draw hummingbirds. Echinacea, buddleia, black-eyed susan, Joe Pye

weed, coreopsis and violets will call the butterflies. How is the garden experienced at night? Grace asks. “Think of white blooms and foliage to reflect moonlight, lights under water with a rippled effect,” she says. TOUCH Consider plants with an interesting feel. Fuzzy lamb’s ears, soft mosses and succulents, cottony silver sage, prickly or spiky thistles, broom, conifers and other trees with intriguing bark. For the hardscaping, you’ll want pebbles, stones or gravel, or a padded path of grass, fine mulch or sand. A metal bench that warms in the sun and cools in the shade provides additional tactile interest, as does fencing,

and vessels made of textured or smooth materials. SOUND Put seating near rustling grasses or hardstemmed plants like bamboo that make knocking noises in a breeze. Deciduous tree leaves whoosh, and pine trees whisper. A little portable trickling fountain makes even a small garden feel grounded in nature; a water feature of any sort will likely attract songbirds and small animals or reptiles. A wind chime may play a tune in the slightest breath of air.

TASTE Plant edibles like nasturtiums, mint, pansies and berries that can be eaten right off the bush as visitors walk your garden. SMELL Jasmine, geranium, rose, honeysuckle, gardenia, lavender. If your zone allows for one or two of these heady scents, you’ll have a featured performer in your sensory garden. Herbs like lemon balm, thyme and peppermint are aromatic and easy to grow. Consider blending scented plants like chocolate cosmos and mock orange; pineapple sage and vanilla-scented clethra; curry plant and ornamental pine or cedar. jasmine, Besides Grace suggests Fringe Tree, Lilac and Carolina Jessamine as fragrant botanicals that grow in many zones. “Low herbs like thyme and oregano in the pathway will give off their aroma when walked upon,” she says. Night bloomers like tuberose, moonflower, white nicotiana, and peacock orchid have intense perfumes that give the evening garden a chance to perform. Be mindful of planting them too close to a bedroom window, however, if there are sensitive noses indoors.

The silky petals of a fragrant pink shrub rose; the crunchy texture of a gravel path; a nook where grass rustles and a stream runs. What we smell, see, hear, touch and taste can make a garden walk a wonderful sensory experience. If you’re designing a garden, consider creating one that’s a feast for one, several or all of the senses. Public examples that can provide inspiration include the William T. Bacon Sensory Garden at the Chicago Botanic Garden, and the Lerner Garden of the Five Senses at the Coastal Maine Botanic Garden in Boothbay. At the Bacon, a large sycamore tree with mottled bark sits at the center, while a crabapple meadow bursts into a cloud of sweet-smelling pink and white in spring. At the Lerner, a labyrinth path made of smooth stones is a reflexologist’s delight. Weeping larches flank the entry, and vertical cage planters called “flower towers” are stocked by garden staff with a variety of flavorful plantings. Stone sinks offer water to cleanse the palate. In California’s Napa and Sonoma valleys, there are wine sensory gardens; the Kendall Jackson Wine Estate has a pinot garden where visitors sample the strawberries, cherries and blackberries that inform the varietal’s flavor. If you want to create your own sensory garden, consider two things: your area’s hardiness zone and which senses you want to focus on. The former can be ascertained at www.garden.org; knowing your zone will help you choose plants that will thrive. If your regional public garden has a sensory exhibit, representatives there can help with sources and inspiration. And even if you find something you love that’s a bit tender for your zone, you can still plant it — just use a container so you can move it to a warmer, protected area when weather threatens. As for the senses, think about what attracts you to a garden. Is it mostly the scents, or is it the visuals? Perhaps you’re moved by how elements in a garden sound. Or are you a tactile per-

son who likes to touch every plant, rock and tree? Make sure guests to your garden can linger and enjoy its sensory pleasures, says Margie Grace, a garden designer and owner of Grace Design Associates in Santa Barbara, Calif. “There should be places to sit; places to slow down; places to feel the warmth of the sun, drink in the fragrant flowers, and hear the trickle of a stream or the music of wind chimes,” she says. Sensory gardens are also a great way to involve kids in gardening, says Emily Jackson of the Appalachian Sustainable Agricultural Project in Asheville, N.C. Plant herbs such as mint and lemon that are easy, prolific and have familiar scents. Or think about the ingredients of kids’ favorite foods — the oregano, tomatoes, onions and basil that go into spaghetti sauce, for example. Try growing some unusual things, too: carrots and potatoes in unusual colors, purple beans that turn green when you cook them, or watermelon radishes. “Radishes are very easy to grow. Kids don’t seem to like them much except for these watermelon ones, which are colorful and less spicy,” says Jackson, who works with an initiative called “Growing Minds: Farm to School,” which helps schools build gardens.

(Nearly) weedless gardening is possible BY LEE REICH The Associated Press

THIS UNDATED photo shows beds in a weedless vegetable garden in New Paltz, New York. other spent plants during and at the end of the growing season by just jerking them out of the ground, coaxing out plants with large roots, such as corn, by first cutting around their main roots with a garden knife. I also enrich the soil from the top down, spreading fertilizers and compost or other organic materials right on the surface. Most of a plant’s feeder roots — the roots that benefit most from organic materials and fertilizers — grow near the surface anyway. And near

or on the surface is where organic materials can also do the most good offering protection from the pounding of raindrops and the summer sun. Still, there are always those weeds that arrive in the garden as seeds hitchhiking in with the wind or dropped by birds. Each year, I smother them by spreading a thin, weed-free mulch over the soil. The mulch of choice depends on the look I want, the plants and the soil. Poor soil and hungrier plants demand the most

nourishing mulch. So every year, compost gets slathered an inch thick over the ground where vegetables grow. hulls, Buckwheat straw or wood chips are adequate and attractive for most flowers. Don’t walk on my bed Of course, you can’t just stop tilling, throw mulch on the ground and garden as usual. Walking on the soil and rolling a wheelbarrow, garden cart or tractor over it compacts the soil; tillage is then needed to aerate it. The way to avoid com-

Tips to save time on lawn maintenance StatePoint — If it feels as though your entire weekends are spent mowing, trimming and watering your lawn, there are steps you can take to speed up your lawn care routine. Automate How many times have you forgotten to water your lawn -- or worse yet, over-watered it? You can eliminate the guesswork (and the grunt work of dragging hoses around your yard) by installing an automatic sprinkler and drip irrigation system that is based on your specific landscape, characteristics and geographical region. A well-designed system ensures peak efficiency, which means you’re only watering your lawn when necessary. This is great for your grass and plants -- and for your pocketbook. New technologies are making it even easier to optimize a watering plan for your lawn, as they can be controlled from the comfort of your computer or from a handheld remote you can take into your backyard. For example, the Irritrol PCW Control system is a software system that allows you to set up an irrigation calendar for different areas of your property. This smart technology can even connect to the Internet and retrieve the day’s weather for your zip code, and change watering time and frequency accordingly. Homeowners can visit www.irritrol.com to learn more. Maintain equipment Keeping your mower properly maintained will save you time all season long. For walking mowers, a good maintenance routine is as follows: • Carefully check blades for sharpness. • Make sure the cutting deck is clear of clippings. Cooking spray on the underside of the deck will make a new mower easier to clean. • Check pull cords to ensure they aren’t frayed. • Check that attachments are connected and working properly. • If you use your mower infrequently, fill the tank with a fuel stabilizer. • Periodically change the oil and

perform air filter maintenance. Less is more It’s tempting to cut the grass as frequently as do your neighbors. But where mowing is concerned, less is more. You can prevent weeds from taking over your lawn by letting your grass grow out a bit, as longer grass supports a deeper root system. If you cut more than one-third of the grass length, you will have clumps of clippings that lie on top of the lawn, slower decomposition, and a less attractive, bristly appearing lawn Keeping grass longer also allows it greater surface area to carry out photosynthesis, which results in healthier plants. In addition, taller grass grows slower than shorter grass. You can use this fact to eliminate up to 20 percent of the mowing you do annually, an average savings of about eight hours a year, not to mention the savings of gasoline and wear on equipment. When you do cut the grass, be sure you’re using great time saving equipment. A model with great maneuverability will give you greater control around landscaping and obstacles. With all that time saved working on your lawn, you’ll have more time to kick back, relax and simply enjoy your lawn instead.

but for those that do, drip irrigation is the way to go. Drip irrigation puts water near garden plants, so none is wasted or promoting weed growth in the areas between plants or in paths. This is not to say that with the above four steps — drip irrigation, mulching, keeping traffic off planted areas, and not tilling — weeds never appear. They do. But weed problems do not. What few large weeds do appear get yanked out of the soil, roots and all, coaxed out, if necessary, with a garden knife or trowel at their roots. Colonies of small weeds are quickly done in with a “winged weeder,” colinear hoe or some other hoe with a sharp blade that can be slid along parallel to and just a fraction of an inch below the soil surface. Also important in keeping a garden weedfree is to search regularly for them. With the above four steps, this activity is pared down to nothing more than a few pleasant minutes per week. ——— Lee Reich is the author of “Weedless Gardening” (Workman, 2001) ——— Online: http://leereich.blogspo t.com/ http://leereich.com/

For a time many years back, I would become nervous every time I went out to my garden to weed. The weeds were so few that I feared something was wrong with the soil. True, I had taken deliberate steps to create this condition, but initially it was hard to believe that results could so well bear out theory. The first step in creating this “weedless” condition was to stop turning over or tilling the ground. Buried in every soil are countless dormant weed seeds just waiting to be awakened by exposure to light and/or air. Not tilling — whether with a shovel, garden fork or rototiller — keeps those seeds buried and dormant. Added bonuses to the no-till approach are preservation of valuable soil humus (organic matter), earlier planting in spring, more efficient water use and, of course, not having to go through the trouble of tilling. Keep soil intact I now take great pains to avoid disturbing the layering that naturally develops over time in any soil. I clean up old marigold plants, tomato vines and

paction in the first place is to lay out the garden with permanent areas for plants and for traffic. Trafficked areas also need to be mulched, in this case with some lean, weed-free material such as wood chips, gravel or straw. Planted areas in my vegetable garden consist of rectangular beds 3 feet wide surrounded by 18inch-wide paths. Beds in my flower garden are more free-form or have stepping stones. Planted areas in a vegetable garden don’t need to be raised beds, however; they can be laid out flat on the ground. A big advantage of bed planting is that you can pack more plants into less space. Instead of planting carrots with 18 inches between rows, four or five rows can be planted with only a few inches between them. (That 18 inches is to let you walk between the rows for planting, weeding and harvesting. With a 3-foot-wide bed, you can do all that from the paths.) Also, different vegetables, flowers, or vegetables and flowers can be grown together in beds. Drip that water Changing watering technique was the final step on my road to “weedlessness.” Not all plants need regular watering,

Nature’s full of garden helpers BY DEAN FOSDICK The Associated Press Looking for some help in the garden? Many of nature’s most useful critters lie literally at our feet, underappreciated and ignored despite their ability to eliminate insects, condition soils and pollinate plants. Turtles, moths, moles, dragonflies, snakes, toads and spiders are among the many wild things that can help maintain a landscape. The payback is minimal — food, water, shelter, and easing off on harsh lawn and garden chemicals. “I believe in teamwork, using all the creatures that live in your garden,” said Sharon author of Lovejoy, “Trowel and Error” (Workman Publishing, 2003). “Start from the ground up with night crawlers as part of your workforce.” Add to the earthworms already in your plant beds with commercially available red worms. “Build a worm bin or a place where they can’t get out,” Lovejoy said. “Use all of your leftovers — your kitchen

Toads, turtles, moths, moles, dragonflies, snakes and spiders are among the many wild things that can help maintain a landscape yet most go unappreciated or ignored despite their ability to kill insects, condition soil and pollinate plants. Harmful insects make up more than 60 percent of a toad's daily diet. compost. Worms can process up to 6 pounds of garbage in a week.” “Grow an assortment of native plants, which will draw a great many bird species,” Lovejoy said. “Add plant hosts as food for butterfly and moth larvae.” That list would inmilkweed clude (monarch butterflies), borage (green lacewings), sunflowers (ladybugs) and yarrow (hoverflies). Many in-

sects in the larval stage are voracious predators. Green lacewings as juveniles are aptly named “aphid lions” because of their appetite for the sap-sucking pests. “I would certainly place spiders near the top of underappreciated life in the garden,” said Whitney Cranshaw, an extension entomologist with Colorado State University. “Although sometimes I think it is less that they are not

appreciated but rather people don’t want to think of them.” Spiders are credited for as much as 80 percent of all predator control in the garden. Jumping spiders, wolf spiders, lynx spiders and crab spiders are the standouts, Cranshaw said. Also great garden helpers are: • Toads. “Harmful insects make up 62 percent of a toad’s daily food supply,” said Lovejoy, who stacks rocks and wood in secluded spots to shelter toads, frogs, turtles, salamanders and lizards. • Dragonflies that can capture over 400 mosquitoes a day. • Moles. “They eat their body weight in insects, slugs and grubs while aerating the soil,” Lovejoy said. • Sphinx wasps that can pollinate 200 flowers in less than seven minutes, Lovejoy said. • Snakes. “Most snakes — about 99 percent of those found in gardens — are harmless helpers, and eat rodents and insect pests,” Lovejoy said. Garter and gopher snakes top her “beneficial” list. • Box turtles that

Maintain a healthy garden with ample spacing if you hope to attract beneficial insects, Dill said. “Spacing allows you to observe things better if you’re walking around, looking for trouble,” he said. “It also reduces the odds for (plant) disease.” ——— Online: For more about goodnatured gardeners, see this University of Maryland Extension fact sheet: http://www.hgic.um d.edu/content/attractwildlife.cfm You can contact Dean Fosdick at deanfosdick(at)netscape.net

feast on slugs, snails, insects, larvae and grubs. “They’re slow but sure,” Lovejoy said. • Bats. These nocturnal aerialists pollinate flowers, spread seeds and devour upwards of 600 mosquitoes an hour. Most predatory insects aren’t selective, though, feeding on anything that comes within reach. “Praying mantises are generalists,” said James Dill, a pest management specialist University of with Maine Extension. “So are many spiders. They’re very efficient but don’t discriminate in what they eat. They’d just as soon grab a honeybee if it happens by.”

How to have a lush lawn in extreme heat NewsUSA — According to reports, last year’s lack of rainfall, combined with the blistering heat, caused a moderate to severe drought that affected up to 63.5 percent of the contiguous U.S. It may have been the worst heat and drought Americans have experienced in nearly 50 years. But will the severity of 2012’s dryness repeat itself? Will this be the “new summer norm” that farmers and homeowners alike should expect? If watering restrictions once again go into effect, is there anything a homeowner can do to have a lawn that doesn’t turn into the color and consistency of straw? Relief is on the way. At the Zoysia Farms Nurseries in Maryland, a lawn grass called Amazoy Zoysia has been produced that will not only withstand extreme heat and drought, it will actually thrive. Amazoy Zoysia is very different from the typical grass planted from seed. It’s a lawn grass planted with living plugs, which are harvested fresh from Zoysia farms and then shipped to homeowners at the correct planting time, depending on the area. When lawns planted from seed get devastated by summer heat and lack of rain, Amazoy Zoysia lawns actually thrive, remaining green, lush and healthy. In fact, according

to spokesman John Ridgway of Zoysia Farm Nurseries in Taneytown, Md., “The hotter it gets, the better it grows.” For homeowners plagued by high water bills, continuing drought conditions, blazing heat and little time available for lawn maintenance, Amazoy Zoysia has turned out to be a blessing. One added benefit is that the grass grows into a “thick, soft, weed-free carpet that feels great in bare feet” without needing applications of chemical fertilizers to feed the grass or kill weeds. So, it’s kidfriendly and pet-friendly, not to mention healthier for the environment. Plus, because of its thickness, it’s perfect for high-traffic areas. It even grows in partial shade. “After you plant the freshly harvested Zoysia plugs,” said Ridgway, “an amazing thing starts to happen. It actually grows differently than ordinary grass because it sends out runners or stolons that expand sideways rather than growing tall.” No one can predict whether 2013 will see the repeat of drought conditions in dozens of states across America. But the signs of global warming continue to be ominous, and the new “norm” might just turn out to mean bristly grass for millions of homeowners, unless they plant Amazoy Zoysia.

CAUTION Whether posting or responding to an advertisement, watch out for offers to pay more than the advertised price for the item. Scammers will send a check and ask the seller to wire the excess through Western Union (possibly for courier fees). The scammer's check is fake and eventually bounces and the seller loses the wired amount. While banks and Western Union branches are trained at spotting fake checks, these types of scams are growing increasingly sophisticated and fake checks often aren't caught for weeks. Funds wired through Western Union or MoneyGram are irretrievable and virtually untraceable.

God bless you and keep you, until we meet again. Your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure. You are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure. Those we love we never lose, for always they will be, loved remembered, treasured, always in our memory. It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone. For part of us went with you, the day God called you home. My heart still aches in sadness, my silent tears still flow. For what it meant to lose you, no one will ever know. Memory is a lovely lane, where hearts are ever true. A lane I so often travel down, because it leads to you. Oh how we wish he/she was here today, to see all the blessings we have. Yet somehow you know that he/she is guiding us on our paths. Tenderly we treasure the past with memories that will always last. Remembering you on this day, comforted by so many memories. In the hearts of those who loved you, you will always be there. If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever. . Loved always, sadly missed. Forever remembered, forever missed. Suffer little children to come unto me.
