President urges them to reject cynical voices BY JOSH LEDERMAN The Associated Press COLUMBUS (AP) — A year to the day after kicking off his victorious re-election campaign on this college campus, President Barack Obama returned to Ohio State University and told graduates
that only through vigorous participation in their democracy can they right an ill-functioning government and break through relentless cynicism about the nation’s future. “I dare you, Class of 2013, to do better. I dare you to dream bigger,” Obama said. In a sunbaked stadium
filled with more than 57,000 students, friends and relatives, Obama lamented an American political system that gets consumed by “small things” and works for the benefit of society’s elite. He called graduates to duty to “accomplish great things,” like rebuilding a still-feeble economy
and fighting poverty and climate change. “Only you can ultimately break that cycle. Only you can make sure the democracy you inherit is as good as we know it can be,” Obama told more than 10,000 cap-and-gownclad graduates gathered for See OBAMA/Page 4
Botkins FFA livestock team wins state title BY TOM MILLHOUSE civitasmedia.com BOTKINS — After finishing second for the past two years, the Botkins FFA general livestock team was determined that nothing less than first would be satisfactory in this year’s state competition. Thanks to long hours of practice and spending Saturdays at warm-up contests around the state, the team’s tenacity paid off last week as they took center stage Friday night to claim the first-place banner at the state FFA convention at the Ohio State Fairgrounds in Columbus.
Not only did Botkins claim first place in the team contest, two members tied for first place in the individual competition. When all of the points were tallied, junior Michaela Kramer and senior Logan Russell tied for first place. After a tie-breaker was factored in, Kramer was awarded first place. “To have the top two from our school, that’s pretty amazing, said Chad Berning, FFA chapter adviser. “This is the first time in recent history that Botkins has won the state,” Berning said. He noted that when the preliminary See FFA/Page 3

CINCINNATI (AP) — Students at a southwest Ohio high school have had a spring prom after all. The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that some 200 Withrow High School students showed up in formal attire Saturday night at the NaUnderground tional Railroad Freedom Center in Cincinnati. Alumni sponsored the replacement prom after principal Withrow’s canceled their prom because of a senior prank. Withrow alumnus Jay Rodgers says he put up money for facility rental because he didn’t think students should miss their last chance for a prom, especially since many weren’t part of the prank. Principal Sharon Johnson had warned students against the prank, a mass in-school water balloon fight. She says it was a painful decision, but she told them of the consequences. There will be a school breakfast to celebrate graduating seniors.

COVINGTON — A two-vehicle crash Friday at the intersection of Versailles Road and Mulberry Grove-Rakestraw Road resulted in serious injury to the driver of one of those vehicles. Miami County deputies say that Connie Wright, 65, of Houston, was southbound on Mulberry Grove-Rakestraw Road just before 6 p.m. when she failed to come to a complete stop at a stop sign. As she entered the intersection, her vehicle was struck in the passenger side by a car
FFA judging began earlier this spring, 740 FFA members from around Ohio were bidding to earn honors in the state contest. The other two team members, sophomores Lucas Buehler and Kyle Moellenkamp, also fared well in the state competition, placing 23rd and 25th, respectively. Berning said the team put in a lot of time this year to prepare for the state contest. “Since February, about every Saturday we’ve been going to invitationals around the state,” he said, adding that the team also had practice sessions. The competition was formidable when the top 10 teams from around the state who qualified in earlier contests met at The Ohio State University beef barn on Wednesday to judge swine, beef
driven by Justin Robbins, 25, of Fletcher. The impact sent Robbins into a ditch and Wright into a utility pole. Robbins was transported to Upper Valley Medical Center to be checked out and Wright was flown to Miami Valley Hospital aboard CareFlight. Authorities at Miami Valley Hospital say that Wright is listed in serious condition as of Sunday evening. Deputies say that citations in the crash are pending.

As the name of the contest implies, the general livestock competitors couldn’t specialize on one species, but had to be proficient in judging four different types of animals. Russell said he had been part of a second place general livestock team for the past two years and the team placed in the top 10 when he was a freshman, but he as looking for bigger things this year. “Our goal was definitely to take the (first place) banner home this year,:” he said. “Everybody on the team has really been dedicated this year.” Russell, who plans to major in ag business and economic at The Ohio State University next year, said the team appreciates the support from Berning, past members. the community.

After winning the state championship, the team now has a shot at winning national honors. The Botkins team earned the right to compete in the national FFA general livestock contest, which will be held the last week in October in Louisville, Ky.

Death toll tops 600
TODAY IN HISTORY BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Monday, May 6, the 126th day of 2013. There are 239 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On May 6, 1863, the Civil War Battle of Chancellorsville in Virginia ended with a Confederate victory over Union forces. On this date: • In 1840, Britain’s first adhesive postage stamp, the Penny Black, officially went into circulation five days after its introduction. • In 1882, President Chester Alan Arthur signed the Chinese Exclusion Act, which barred Chinese immigrants from the U.S. for 10 years (Arthur had opposed an earlier version with a 20year ban). • In 1910, Britain’s Edwardian era ended with the death of King Edward VII; he was succeeded by George V. • In 1935, the Works Progress Administration began operating under an executive order signed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. • In 1937, the hydrogen-filled German airship Hindenburg burned and crashed in Lakehurst, N.J., killing 35 of the 97 people on board and a Navy crewman on the ground. • In 1942, during World War II some 15,000 Americans and Filipinos on Corregidor surrendered to Japanese forces. • In 1954, medical student Roger Bannister broke the four-minute mile during a track meet in Oxford, England, in 3:59.4.• In 1960, Britain’s Princess Margaret married Antony ArmstrongJones, a commoner, at Westminster Abbey. (They divorced in 1978.) • In 1962, in the first test of its kind, the submerged submarine USS Ethan Allen fired a Polaris missile armed with a nuclear warhead that detonated above the Pacific Ocean. • In 1987, CIA Director William J. Casey died at age 74. • In 1996, the body of former CIA director William E. Colby was found washed up on a southern Maryland riverbank, more than a week after he’d disappeared. • In 2002, Dutch politician Pim Fortuyn was shot and killed in Hilversum, Netherlands. (Volkert van der Graaf was later convicted of killing Fortuyn and was sentenced to 18 years in prison.)
OUT OF THE BLUE
Gerbils strut their stuff BEDFORD, Mass. (AP) — The American Gerbil Society’s annual pageant brought dozens of rodents scurrying to New England this weekend for a chance to win “top gerbil.” The Bedford competition called for agility demonstrations in which the gerbils must overcome obstacles and race to the end of a course. Breeders of the small animals vie for coveted ribbons based on body type and agility. “A male gerbil should be a good, strong, hefty-looking gerbil,” said Libby Hanna, president of the American Gerbil Society. “If you are going to think of it in human terms, you might think of a football player - somebody who’s big, thick neck, nice, strong-looking male gerbil.” An ideal female gerbil will have a more streamlined appearance that even humans covet, she said. “So she would be strong and athletic-looking — not really scrawny, but slim,” said Hanna, who serves as a judge in the show.

IN THIS image taken from video obtained from the Ugarit News, which has been authenticated based on its contents and other AP reporting, smoke and fire fill the the skyline over Damascus, Syria, early Sunday after an Israeli airstrike. Israeli warplanes struck areas in and around the Syrian capital Sunday, setting off a series of explosions as they targeted a shipment of highly accurate, Iranian-made guided missiles believed to be on their way to Lebanon’s Hezbollah militant group, officials and activists said. The attack, the second in three days, signaled a sharp escalation of Israel's involvement in Syria’s bloody civil war. Syria’s state media reported that Israeli missiles struck a military and scientific research center near the Syrian capital and caused casualties.
Israeli airstrikes prompt threats, anger in Syria BY KARIN LAUB The Associated Press BEIRUT (AP) — Israel rushed to beef up its rocket defenses on its northern border Sunday to shield against possible retaliation after carrying out two airstrikes in Syria over 48 hours — an unprecedented escalation of Israeli involvement in the Syrian civil war. Syria and its patron Iran hinted at possible retribution, though the rhetoric in official statements appeared relatively muted. Despite new concerns about a regional war, Israeli officials signaled they will keep trying to block what they see as an effort by Iran to send sophisticated weapons to Lebanon’s Hezbollah militia ahead of a possible collapse of Syrian President Bashar Assad’s
regime. Israel has repeatedly threatened to intervene in the Syrian civil war to stop the transfer of what it calls “game-changing” weapons to Hezbollah, a Syrian-backed group that battled Israel to a stalemate during a monthlong war in 2006. Since carrying out a lone airstrike in January that reportedly destroyed a shipment of anti-aircraft missiles headed to Hezbollah, Israel had largely stayed on the sidelines. That changed over the weekend with a pair of airstrikes, including an attack near a sprawling military complex close to the Syrian capital of Damascus early Sunday that set off a series of powerful explosions. The Israeli government and military refused to comment. But a senior Israeli official said both airstrikes targeted ship-
ments of Fateh-110 missiles bound for Hezbollah. The Iranian-made guided missiles can fly deep into Israel and deliver powerful half-ton bombs with pinpoint accuracy. The official on condition of spoke anonymity because he was discussing a covert military operation. Syria’s government called the attacks a “flagrant violation of international law” that has made the Middle East “more dangerous.” It also claimed the Israeli strikes proved the Jewish state’s links to rebel groups trying to overthrow Assad’s regime. Syria’s information minister, Omran al-Zoubi, reading a Cabinet statement after an emergency government meeting, said Syria has the right and duty “to defend its people by all available means.”
Bride-to-be, 4 others die in fire SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A limousine taking nine women to a bachelorette party erupted in flames, killing five of the passengers, including the bride-to-be, authorities and the mother of one of the survivors said Sunday. The limo caught fire at around 10 p.m. Saturday on one of the busiest bridges on San Francisco Bay, California Highway Patrol officer Art Montiel told The Associated Press. Five of the women were trapped, but the four other women managed to get out after the vehicle came to a stop on the San Mateo-Hayward Bridge, the patrol said. Rosita Guardiano told the San Francisco Chronicle that the woman for whom the bachelorette party was being thrown was to be married next month. Guardiano said her daughter was one of the survivors. Investigators haven’t determined what sparked the fire, but the patrol said the white stretch limo became engulfed in flames after smoke started coming out of the rear of the vehicle. A photo taken by a witness and broadcast on KTVU-TV showed flames shooting from the back. Aerial video shot after the incident showed about one-third of the back half of the limousine had been scorched by the fire. Its taillights and bumper were gone and it appeared to be resting on its rims, but the remainder of the vehicle didn’t appear to be damaged.
The driver of the limo — 46-year-old Orville Brown of San Jose — was the only person to escape unhurt. It wasn’t clear how he managed to escape without injury. Investigators Sunday afternoon were still seeking witnesses, the CHP said. “Four people got out, as far as what was going on inside, I don’t know,” CHP officer Jeremy Lofstrom said Sunday. CHP investigators Sunday afternoon were still seeking witnesses to the incident. All five women were pronounced dead at the scene. Autopsies were being conducted, San Mateo County Supervising Deputy Coroner Michelle Rippy said. The company that operated the limo was identified as Limo Stop, which offers service through limousines, vans and SUVS. A telephone message left at the company seeking comment by The Associated Press wasn’t immediately returned. Attempts to reach the driver were also unsuccessful. Guardiano said her daughter — 42-year-old Mary Grace Guardiano of Alameda — was being treated for smoke inhalation. The three other women who escaped the fire, Jasmine Desguia, 34, of San Jose; Nelia Arrellano, 36, of Oakland; and Amalia Loyola, 48, of San Leandro, were taken to hospitals to be treated for smoke inhalation and burns, the patrol said.
DHAKA, Bangladesh (AP) — More than 600 bodies have been recovered from the garment-factory building that collapsed well over a week ago, police said Sunday as the grim recovery work continued in one of the worst industrial accidents ever. Police said Sunday night that the death toll had reached 622. Well over 200 bodies have been recovered since Wednesday, when authorities said only 149 people had been listed as missing. The stench of decomposing bodies remains amid the broken concrete of the eight-story Rana Plaza building, and it is anyone’s guess how many victims remain to be recovered. The April 24 disaster is likely the worst garment-factory accident ever, and there have been few industrial accidents of any kind with a higher death toll. It surpassed longago garment-industry disasters such as New York’s Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire, which killed 146 workers in 1911, and more recent tragedies such as a 2012 fire that killed about 260 people in Pakistan and one in Bangladesh that same year that killed 112. An architect whose firm designed the building said Sunday that it had not been designed to handle heavy industrial equipment, let alone the three floors that were later illegally added. The equipment used by the five garment factories that occupied Rana Plaza included huge generators that were turned on shortly before the building crumbled.
Uncle planning suspect’s funeral WORCESTER, Mass. (AP) — The uncle of Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev arrived in Massachusetts on Sunday to arrange for his burial, saying he understands that “no one wants to associate their names with such evil events.” Ruslan Tsarni, of Montgomery Village, Md., and three of his friends met with the Worcester funeral home director and prepared to wash and shroud Tsarnaev’s body according to Muslim tradition. The 26-year-old died after a gun battle with police on April 19. Funeral director Peter Stefan said he hasn’t been able to find a cemetery in Massachusetts willing to take the body. He said he plans to ask the city of Cambridge, where Tsarnaev lived, to provide a burial plot, and if Cambridge turns him down, he will seek help from state officials. Tsarni told reporters that he is arranging for Tsarnaev’s burial because religion and tradition call for his nephew to be buried. He would like him buried in Massachusetts because he’s lived in the state for the last decade, he said.

He’s got a decent chance of To reach for his promised achieving an immigration deficit reduction, Obama has overhaul. Activists who once proposed breaking his tax ridiculed his promise to be a
“fierce advocate” of gay rights say he’s come around and become just that. Much else is bogged in the budget swamp or is a nonstarter for one reason or another. Anything costing big money comes with big obstacles, and one promise that cost relatively little, gun control, is dust. Yet Obama, in powering through with his health care overhaul, financial regulation and stimulus spending in his first term, has shown that tough causes aren’t always lost ones. A look at Obama’s leading promises and what’s happening with them: Debt: The promise: Cut deficits by $4 trillion over a decade. Prospects: Deals with Congress to cap spending and raise taxes on wealthier people, along with the resulting savings on interest payments on the debt, have already
achieved a projected $2.6 trillion in deficit reduction for the years ahead. But the rest of the $4 trillion will be tough. To get there, he proposes a 10year $583 billion tax increase, an additional layer of tax increases from slower indexing of tax brackets for inflation and modest curbs to federal health care programs, all helping to produce further interest savings. Republicans are so far standing firm against further tax increases and liberal Democrats are a tough sell on trimming entitlement programs and other spending. This, as the Congressional Budget Office warns that “such high and rising debt would have serious consequences” if unchecked. Among those consequences are reduced national savings and investment, a potential fiscal crisis and higher interest costs for the government.

The Shelby County Historical Society has installed an exhibit at the Ross Historical Center, 201 N. Main Ave., and planned several activities to commemorate the middle year of the Civil War, the bloodiest year for Shelby County soldiers. The exhibit highlights what a day in the life of a Shelby County soldier might have been like during the war. In addition to a dinner featuring Civil War-era foods and a presentation about the Underground Railroad that occurred Thursday, the society has planned the following programs, all of which will begin at 7 p.m.: • Bill Sell will portray Abraham Lincoln on a campaign stop in 1864 for a program on June 13 at the Masonic Temple. Lincoln’s political rival, Stephen Douglas, will introduce him. • On June 20, a tour of Graceland Cemetery will visit sections where Civil War veterans are buried. Re-enactors will portray some of them during the tour. • Local historian and author Rich Wallace will give a talk, “A Retrospective on July 1863: The Month that Turned the Tide in U.S. History,” on July 18 in the Monumental Building.

Moms are celebrated around the world
There’s nothing new about honouring a mother’s unique role within the family and society as a whole. Ancient Greeks were known to celebrate Rhea, the mother of the Gods, and countless other religions have celebrated the fertility and nurturing qualities of women.
The perpetuation of this tradition in North America goes back to an American, Anna Jarvis, who lost her mother on the second Sunday of May, 1906. She convinced the authorities in her small Virginian town to mark Mother’s Day with a religious ceremony the following year. The idea was so popular that the entire state of Virginia began an official celebration for mothers in 1907. A few years later, in 1914, U.S. President Woodrow Wilson officially designated the second Sunday in May as Mother’s Day.
Since then, many countries including Canada, Brazil, Italy, Japan, and Belgium have followed
this lead and made the second Sunday in May a day of flowers and words of love for moms.
Strangely enough, Mother’s Day is celebrated on a wide range of dates around the world. It’s celebrated as early as February in Norway and as late as December in Panama and Indonesia. Between these two extremes, hardly a month goes by without some country honouring their mothers with a special day. One thing is certain though, no matter the place or the date, mothers deserve to be celebrated!
Mother’s Day is celebrated on different dates around the world.

Everybody is convinced that the best mom in the world is theirs. That’s probably why Mother’s Day is celebrated in dozens of countries around the world, although not always on the same date.

4-R’s of nutrient management 2012 may elect to enroll in DCP in 2013 or may re-enroll in ACRE in 2013. Likewise producers who were enrolled in DCP may opt for ACRE enrollment. For the 2013 crop year, 100 percent of the Direct Payment will be issued to farm producers in October 2013. All payments under the DCP are subject to the availability of funds and compliance with all laws including those that may be passed after a DCP Contract is signed. This may include a reduction in the amount of Direct Payments due to any sequester order required by legislation. Producers should contact the Shelby County Farm Service Agency to schedule an appointment for the 2013 DCP/ACRE sign-up at 492-6520 (ext. 2). The deadline to enroll in the 2013 DCP is Aug. 2 and for ACRE is June 3. SURE applications The Farm Service Agency (FSA) will continue to accept SURE applications for 2011 crop losses through June 7. The SURE Program provides payments to producers when crop
revenues are less than the crop guarantee. The SURE Program payment is equal to 60 percent of the difference between the crop guarantee and revenue. To determine the guarantee and revenue for the SURE Program, all crops on all farms for a producer are included in the calculation. SURE payments are limited to $100,000. To be eligible for the 2011 SURE Program, producers must have crop insurance on all insurable crops. For crops that are not covered by crop insurance such as pumpkins and cucumbers, producers must have purchased Non Insured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP) coverage from FSA. The Crop Insurance and NAP purchase requirement is waived for crops that are not economically significant to the farming operation. To be eligible, the producer must have at least one crop with a 10 percent production loss.

BETSY (LEISTNER) McKinley speaks to Lehman Catholic High School students about her work with NASA. She is a 1993 Lehman graduate.
Lehman grad talks about NASA career
Began career From 1998-2002, McKinley began her career at NASA teaching astronauts and flight controllers in the classroom and by using simulators. She trained many of the astronauts who flew on the space shuttles. From 2002-08, she became an instructor for the Russian Training Integration program. She traveled often to Star City, Russia, actually living there for an entire year, to train Russian cosmonauts for trips to the International Space Station. Part of her preparation for the job was becoming fluent in the Russian language.
Constant travel Tired of the constant travel, McKinley came back to Ohio, teaching chemistry at Alter High School in Kettering for a year while still working part time for NASA. She was thinking of resigning her NASA position until they made her an offer she could not refuse. As part of the Chief Exploration Branch of the Astronaut Office, she now lives in Columbus, working on projects from home. She goes to the Houston
Space Center in Texas twice a month and visits Russia twice a year. Part of her work involves analyzing new vehicle designs to make sure they will work for the astronauts. Now that the space shuttles have been retired, American astronauts are dependent on Russia to get them into space while new rockets and spaceships are being developed. McKinley’s Russian language skills have made her invaluable. When in Russia, she is part of the support team for launches and landings at Mission Control Moscow. Her schedule allows her to take time to speak to students about space exploration and new advances in technology that are affecting what man can do in space. As part of her presentation at Lehman, she showed photos of the vast control panels used in the Apollo missions and commented that similar operations are done on a small laptop today.
‘Early days’ “In the early days of space travel, there wasn’t even email so the engineers sent messages across the room to each other with little tube-like capsules like you use at a bank drive-thru,” she said. McKinley started her presentation at Lehman with a Jeopardy-style game to test students’ knowledge of the space program. She then explained her work and showed a large collection of photos of the shuttles, the Space Station, Russian launches, and new rockets in development. She also described the moon rover vehicle that she had tested. “It can move like a crab from side to side as well as forward and back,” she said. “If you want to pick
up a rock, you can maneuver an arm with a claw to snag it and bring it into the rover.” Leistner gave credit to her teachers at Lehman Catholic for encouraging her interest in science. “I had some outstanding high school teachers who inspired me,” Leistner said. “I had two years of astronomy taught by Dave Musser, chemistry and physics taught by Sister Ginny Scherer, and life sciences taught by Denise Stauffer. Those courses and those teachers helped me discover the passion that became my life’s work.” “I truly admire Betsy,” Science Department Chair Sister Ginny Scherer stated. “While she was still in high school she told me that it was her goal to work in the space program. She pursued that objective and through hard work and sacrifice, personal achieved her goal.”
Questions At the end of her presentation, McKinley left time for questions and the big one on the students’ minds was obvious. “No,” she said, “I have never been to space.” Metal rods from some back surgeries in her youth took away that option, so she decided to do the next best thing. If she could not go there herself, she wanted to help others go there. “It’s an exciting time,” said McKinley. “There are always new things to explore — return trips to the moon, a manned mission to Mars, the capture of an asteroid — these things are all possible in the future.” Perhaps some of the young scientists hearing these words in the classroom will be the ones heading for space or preparing others for the adventure in years to come.

S&H Industries Board of Trustees heard a report on drop-in work at S&H and about Community Employment Assessments during its recent meeting. Adult Services Director Rick Husa told board members that work at S&H Industries has gone down recently. No reason for the decline was noted. In order to keep S&H employees busy during the times when there is less work, the program manager, program coordinators and some of the program department members have helped to develop a structured day for employees that includes exercise and enrichment activities such as a “travel hour” and guest speakers. Board members were told that Community Employment Assessments are still taking
policy regarding attendance. Ron Swain, a benefits analyst, was to give a presentation on April 24 on the benefits of working and still maintaining Medicaid benefits. The next meeting will be May 17.

If you are where you are supposed to be, you won’t have any problems.

Personally, you love to be surrounded by beautiful things, which is why many of you are collectors of antiques and collectibles. Your year ahead is the beginning of a fresh new cycle. Open any door!

Lehman Catholic High School graduate Betsy (Leistner) McKinley has a job that is literally out of this world. McKinley, who graduated from Lehman in 1993, spends her days working with astronauts as an engineer with the NASA. She returned “home” recently to share her adventures with current Lehman students. McKinley graduated from Purdue University with a degree in aeronautical engineering in 1998. She opted for a five-year co-op program so she could work at the Research Center at Langley Air Force Base in Virginia as part of her training.

HOROSCOPE BY FRANCES DRAKE For Tuesday, May 7, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You have good moneymaking ideas today and will be aggressive about expressing them to others. Nevertheless, postpone moneymaking decisions until tomorrow. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You’re opinionated today, and others notice this. But here’s the catch: This is a poor day to stand by your opinions. Tomorrow, things could look different. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Your ability to research something and dig deeper for answers is excellent today. You won’t stop until you find what you’re looking for. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) In all groups (classes, meetings or conferences) you will be persuasive today! Others certainly will sit up and listen to you. Hot tip: Save important agreements for tomorrow. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You will have feisty discussions with authority figures (parents, bosses, teachers and VIPs) today. And possibly, they will be feisty, too. Keep things down to a dull roar. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Intense, philosophical discussions about religion, politics and profound topics might take place today. Racial issues could be important. You’re highly opinionated right now, and so is everyone else. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Spirited discussions about how to share jointly held property could take place today. Or perhaps you will debate an inheritance or the wealth and resources of your partner. Wait until tomorrow to decide what to do. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Conversations with partners and close friends are dynamic and lively today! Someone has his or her point of you, and so do you. Make sure you listen as much as you speak. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) You have lots of mental energy to apply to your job today. Not only will you work hard, you probably will tell others to work hard as well. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) This is a playful day and a particularly strong day for those of you involved in sports, the arts or working with children. You’re full of ideas and enthusiastic about whatever you’re doing. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Family disputes might arise because people are so opinionated today. Anger serves no purpose except to make everyone miserable. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) This is a strong day for those of you in sales, marketing, teaching, acting and writing. Nevertheless, this is not a good day for important decisions. Wait until tomorrow. YOU BORN TODAY You inspire others because you embrace whatever causes interest you with great devotion even to the point of making sacrifices in your life. You are not a quitter. Because you appear confident, self-assured and knowledgeable, others easily admire you. In your year ahead, something you’ve been involved with for about nine years will end or diminish in order to create room for something new.

ANSWER: Without doing an exam, obviously I can’t be sure, but I wonder if you have relapsing polychondritis. “Relapsing” means that it comes and goes, and “polychondritis” means there’s inflammation of different cartilage in the body. The firm, flexible tissue in the ears is cartilage, as is the firm tissue in your nose and your windpipe. Relapsing polychondritis is a rare disease, often with a long delay in diagnosis due to its rarity and intermittent nature. It can affect just one or two areas, as might be the
case with you, but it also can affect joints and critical organs, like lungs, heart, kidneys and blood vessels. It appears to be an autoimmune disease, one in which the body’s defense system attacks its own cartilage. Usually, there is some redness or swelling of the cartilage. Treatment varies with severity of the disease. Sometimes anti-inflammatories work wonders; other times, people need very powerful immune-suppression drugs. A rheumatologist is most likely to be familiar with this condition. I found a nice support group at http://health.groups.yah o o. c o m / g r o u p / R p o l y chondritis/.

She plans to stop attending all family events and celebrate only with me and our daughter. While that would be easier, I know it probably isn’t the best solution. Should I support her decision, or is there some answer I haven’t thought of yet? — LET DOWN IN TEXAS DEAR LET DOWN: Your wife should make no decisions about future celebrations while she’s angry. If she follows through on her impulse to boycott all family events, she will be cutting her nose off to spite her face. On those occasions when it’s not possible to attend extended family
gatherings, celebrating with immediate family seems like a sensible solution. Or consider hosting the celebration yourselves so you can set the party time. Your wife may have self-esteem issues that need to be addressed if she’s taking this personally. As a nurse caring for the most fragile of infants, she’s doing important work that should be respected. Please tell her to remind herself of that fact any time she feels “unimportant” because her efforts make the difference between life and death.

In our hearts your memory lingers, sweetly tender, fond and true. There is not a day, dear Mother/Father, that we do not think of you. Thank you for loving and sharing, for giving and for caring. 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.

REPLAY 50 years ago May 6, 1963 It didn’t take long for Dick Francis to assert pitching prestige in the Western Ohio League. The youthful Osgood hurler initiated the circuit’s 16th annual campaign by stoking a near-miss on a nohitter in pacing the Indians to a 4-0 shutout of Botkins Reds, on the Osgood lot Sunday afternoon.
25 years ago May 6, 1988 Lehman had little trouble with Covington as the struggling Buccs managed just four hits off Sean Moorman and Luke Voisard. Meanwhile, Lehman got two hits each from Tony DePriest, Rod Rayner, Mark Voisard, Chris Wilberding, Larry Searls and Tom Froning in a 12-1 win.
10 years ago May 6, 2003 Russia posted an 8-5 victory over Fairlawn in softball action. Kari Hoying had a big day for the Lady Raiders, going a perfect 4-for-4 with a double.
SPORTS IN BRIEF LeBron is MVP again MIAMI (AP) — LeBron James was at his best this season, and the voters tasked with selecting the NBA's Most Valuable Player took notice. Every voter except one, that is. The NBA still does not have a unanimous MVP, though no one has come closer than James did this season. The Miami Heat star was presented with the Maurice Podoloff Trophy for the fourth time in his career on Sunday after collecting 120 of the 121 first-place votes, with Carmelo Anthony of the New York Knicks picking up the lone remaining top choice.

Reds win 7-4 for sweep CHICAGO (AP) — Joey Votto had three hits, Todd Frazier hit a two-run single and the Cincinnati Reds completed a three-game sweep of the Chicago Cubs with a 7-4 victory on Sunday. The Cubs rallied for three runs off Mat Latos to make it a one-run game in the fifth inning, helped when Reds center fielder Shin-Soo Choo and second baseman Brandon Phillips collided trying to catch Alfonso Soriano’s short fly. Latos (3-0) extended his scoreless streak to 21 innings, tying a career high, but didn’t pitch past the fifth inning for the first time in seven starts this season. He struck out six and walked three. J.J. Hoover earned his second save. Edwin Jackson (0-5) struggled again for the Cubs, allowing four runs and eight hits in five innings. He struck out five and walked one. He has yet to pitch past the sixth inning in seven starts this season. The Reds got a scare in the fifth when Choo and Phillips ran into each other. The ball deflected off Phillips’ glove and hit Choo in the face. Trainers checked both players. Phillips later exited in the eighth inning. Two runs scored on Soriano’s double, ending Latos’ scoreless streak. Nate Schierholtz followed with an RBI single to cut the lead to 4-3. The Reds got two more in the seventh. Votto’s second double drove in one, and Phillips had a sacrifice fly. The Cubs cut the lead to 64 in the bottom of the inning when David DeJesus scored on a groundout, but the Reds added another in the eighth. Jay Bruce hit an RBI dou-

The Reds added a run in the fifth on Zack Cozart’s sacrifice fly. Choo scored after he singled, stole second and advanced on catcher Dioner Navarro’s throwing error. The Cubs brought the tying run to the plate in the ninth with no outs after Scott Hairston reached on a single and advanced to third on Hoover’s throwing error to second when DeJesus hit a chopper to the mound. Hoover got three flyouts to end the game. NOTES: Reds OF Donald Lutz recorded his first major
league hit, a single off Shawn Camp in the seventh, and got his first RBI grounding into a force out in the eighth. . Cubs pitching coach Chris Bosio said struggling reliever Carlos Marmol’s main issues are his tempo and concentration. Marmol walked two, hit a batter and allowed three runs without recording an out in Saturday’s 6-4 loss to the Reds. Marmol has two saves in four opportunities and an ERA of 5.68. He pitched a perfect sixth Sunday. “Where Carlos gets in trouble along with the other guys is going too fast, and yesterday was a classic case of that,” Bosio said. “He’s got to slow it down and visualize the pitch and
execute the pitch.” . C Welington Castillo was out of the lineup Sunday after he was hit by a pitch on the ankle Saturday. Cubs manager Dale Sveum said Castillo is OK. . The Cubs will be hosting three teams in three days for the first time since Aug. 2123, 1960. The Cubs host the Texas Rangers on Monday in a make up of the rained-out game on April 17.

Joel Rosario rides Orb to win the 139th Kentucky Derby at
Churchill Downs Saturday in Louisville, Ky.
Orb prepares for Preakness run LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Now that Shug McGaughey has won the Kentucky Derby, it’s time for the 62-year-old trainer to go after another race missing from his Hall of Fame resume. Orb will follow up his win at Churchill Downs by running in the Preakness on May 18, giving the colt a shot at the Triple Crown. Orb arrived back at his home base in New York on Sunday, as did McGaughey and jockey Joel Rosario. The trainer was still absorbing what happened a day earlier. The colt extended his winning streak to five races, splashing through the slop to win the Derby by 21/2 lengths, giving McGaughey and Rosario their first Derby wins. Orb rallied from 17th and made a sweep-
ing move on the turn for home to win. “It did not matter if it was wet or dry, the best horse won,” rival trainer D. Wayne Lukas said McGaughey has never won the Preakness in two previous attempts. He hasn’t had a horse in the race since 1989, when Easy Goer finished second to Sunday Silence, duplicating their Derby finish that year. For a trainer who has always shown patience with his horses, McGaughey is eagerly anticipating the grueling Triple Crown campaign that compresses three races into a five-week span. “I can’t wait to get to the Preakness and do it again,” he said. It’s fitting that Orb is set to run in Baltimore, the home-
town of Stuart Janney III. He and co-owner Ogden Mills “Dinny” Phipps have never won the Preakness. “The Preakness is important to me. I grew up around it, went there all the time,” Janney said. McGaughey has worked exclusively for Janney and Phipps for years, training the horses they breed. In a sport known for rampant jealousy, there was an outpouring of goodwill for all three men after the Derby. Trainers Todd Pletcher and Chad Brown stopped by to wish McGaughey well, while Lukas and Bob Baffert, who didn’t have a horse in the race, spoke warmly of him, too. “It was a wonderful victory for Stuart Janney and Dinny Phipps. There was a lot of
karma there that rewards people that have been great to the sport,” Lukas said. “I saw Dinny before the race and told him that I thought it was going to be his turn and I was a little worried.” After watching replays of the Derby, McGaughey was more impressed with Orb. “The maturity he showed yesterday in everything he did, from his Derby day to his experience in the paddock, which was tremendous, going in the post and the way he raced, it was kind of amazing to me,” he said. Orb will see some familiar challengers in the 1 3/16-mile Preakness.

The Cavs got a twohitter from AJ Hemmelin beating garn Cedarville. “He pitched out of some tight situations in the first two innings,” said Lehman coach Dave King. “Once we got the three runs in the second, I think he settled down.” Cole Proffitt singled and Andrew Gilardi walked to start the second, then Andrew Gilardi’s bunt was thrown away, allowing one run to score.

Loramie splits twin bill with Parkway ROCKFORD — Fort Loramie lost the first game of a doubleheader 3-2 to Parkway thanks to the pitching of Parkway’s Sierra Fent, who struck out 10 Lady Redskins. “We scored two in the seventh to make it interesting but for the most part, Fent was in command,” said Loramie coach Brad Turner. Loramie had just four hits, including a two-run single in the seventh by Holly Frey. Paige Ordean pitched
well again, allowing just one hit in five innings. The Lady Redskins bounced back to win the second game 8-4 to leave with a 15-4 record. Elizabeth Barhorst had three hits and drove in two, Darian Rose singled and doubled, and Holly Frey singled and doubled.

The story of Mother’s Day is a long one. It is neither a recent phenomenon as many people believe it to be. Nor is it the creation of the card and gift marketers syndicate as assumed by cynics of Mother’s Day festivities. To the surprise of lot many people, Mother’s Day celebrations are first said to have taken place in the time of ancient Greeks and Romans hundreds of years ago. Even Mothers Day celebrations in UK began much before the tradition saw the light of the day in the U.S. In the U.S. the efforts of Ms. Julia Ward Howe and Ms. Anna Jarvis are greatly recognized for starting the tradition of Mother’s Day, but several other women also made remarkable contributions to further the cause of the Mother’s Day holiday. Today, Mother’s Day is celebrated in more than 46 countries around the world though at different times in the month of May and in some countries it is celebrated in entirely different times of the year. In the present time Mothers Day has come to be internationally recognized as the day to honor all mothers and thank them for the services they impart for the benefit of their individual child and consequently to the development of mankind. Celebrations in the time of Greeks and Romans The tradition of Mother’s Day started with the ancient Greeks who celebrated their annual spring festival in honor of Rhea, the mother of many gods and goddesses in Greek mythology. Ancient Romans too celebrated a spring festival by the name of Hilaria in honor of Cybele, a mother goddess, some 250 years before Christ was born.
Celebrations in UK In the UK, Mother’s Day celebrations started by the name of Mothering Sunday, several years before the tradition found its roots the in UK. Mothering Sunday came to be celebrated following the practice in the UK of 17th century wherein children of poor families were sent to work as apprentice and domestic servants with the rich. These children were allowed to visit their “Mother Church” or the Cathedral of their hometown annually in the middle of the fasting month of Lent. Children met their mothers after visiting the church and presented them with flowers and special “Mothering Cakes.” The custom received a set back with the advent of the Industrial Revolution when the lifestyles changes. American soldiers contributed in the revival of the tradition after World War II. Genesis of the Festival in U.S. The story of Mother’s Day in the U.S. began with the efforts of a dynamic writer and poetess, Julia Ward Howe in 1872. An activist to the core, Julia utilized her potentials to further the cause of Mother’s Day. She wrote a powerful Mother’s Day Proclamation in Boston in 1870 and demanded declaration of the official holiday and celebrations on
Mother’s Day. Her idea gained popularity, but she could not get the idea implemented. Julia also is credited for penning words for the Civil War song, "Battle Hymn of the Republic." Struggle of Anna Jarvis A loving daughter from West Virginia, Anna Jarvis is recognized as a “Founder of Mother’s Day” and “Mother of Mother,s Day.” Anna kept the word of her activist mother, Mrs. Ann Marie Reeves Jarvis who once expressed a wish that someone should strive to provide mothers their due recognition. After her mother’s death in 1905, Anna's determination became strong and she, along with several supporters, started lobbying for the official holiday on Mother’s Day by writing letters to the people in power. To celebrate Mother’s Day, Anna began to send her mother’s favorite flowers, carnations to her local church requesting people wear them in honor of their mothers. The idea gained immense popularity over the years and in 1910, West Virginia became the first state to recognize Mother’s Day holiday. On May 8, 1914, President Woodrow Wilson signed a joint resolution designating the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day.
