other officials quickly exited the courtroom while officers worked to subdue Gregory Dale Russell, 36, 806 1/2 S. Main Ave. Russell was appearing for charges stemming from a standoff at his home Tuesday morning. When Russell first entered the courtroom, he appeared agitated and loudly objected to a Sidney Daily
News photographer taking his photo as he sat in the jury box. He was told by Deputy Bailiff Mike Martz to be quiet while another person stood before the judge. He quieted down until it was his turn to appear before the judge. As he walked up to stand next to his lawyer, Heath H. Hegemann, he suddenly
swung his fist and punched Hegemann in the back of the head. As Hegemann fell to the floor, Russell continued to try to punch him. Court officials immediately ran to Hegemann’s aide. Capt. Jerry Tangeman with the Sidney Police Department, Chief Bailiff Noah Faulder, Martz and See ASSAULT/Page 11A

Hottest weather of MUNICIPAL COURT summer begins today BY TOM BARNETT tbarnett@sdnccg.com Sidney and Shelby County will be experiencing an extreme heat surge beginning today, which is expected to continue throughout the weekend. The National Weather Service in Wilmington has issued a Heat Advisory alert for Sidney and other Miami Valley communities from noon to 8 p.m. today. Weekend temperatures are expected to hover close to 100 degrees with higher humidity readings. Heat Index values may reach 101 degrees with dew points around 60. The alert also includes Auglaize, Darke, Miami, Mercer and Preble counties. A high of 99 degrees is being forecast today with 93 degree readings Friday and 91 on Saturday. Highs of 93 are expected both Sunday and Monday with no chance of rain. Temperatures could dip to the high 80s by the July 4 holiday Wednesday. Beginning today, the Family Life Center in Jackson Center will be open from 1:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. as a shelter from the heat for county residents and the Senior Citizens Center in Sidney will be open during regular hours from 8 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. for seniors seeking relief from the heat. The center will be extending hours to 6:30 p.m. next week. Wilson Memorial Hospital Emergency Room manager Rhonda Sanvido said the hospital has not seen an influx of patients due to the heat. “Occasionally, we see patients in the ER due to extreme sunburn, but that is typical during the summer months.” The Shelby County Health Department and Wilson Hospital are cautioning residents to
take extra precautions if they work or spend time outside during the hot, dry weather to guard against heat stroke, heat exhaustion and other heat-related illnesses. Margie Eilerman, RN, the health department’s director of nursing, offers residents the following tips to prevent heat-related illness: • Drink more nonalcoholic fluids regardless of activity level, even if not thirsty. Avoid very cold drinks, as they can cause stomach cramps. • Stay indoors and if all possible, stay in air conditioned places. Go to the shopping mall or public library for a few hours of relief from the heat. • Electric fans may provide comfort, but when temperatures are in the high 90s, fans will not prevent heat-related illness, Taking a cool shower or bath or moving to an air-conditioned place is better. • Wear lightweight, light-colored loose-fitting clothing. • Although anyone can suffer heat-related illness, some people are at greater risk. Check regularly on infants and young children, people age 65 or older, and those who are physically ill, especially with heart disease or high blood pressure. Visit adults at risk at least twice a day and watch infants and young children even more frequently. • Never leave anyone

in a closed, parked vehicle. • Residents who must be out in the heat should protect themselves by wearing a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses and using a sun screen of SPF 15 or higher. At Fair Haven Shelby County Home, Yvonne Ditmer, unit manager, said staff always monitors residents for dehydration during periods of extreme heat. “We limit their time outside and make sure they are accompanied by a staff member. We also offer more fluids and cooling things like popsicles and ice cream.” Local residents are also reminded not to forget their pets in extreme heat. Greg Schmiesing, DVM, at Flinn Veterinary Clinic’s small animal hospital in Sidney, says dogs especially need extra care during extreme heat. “They need plenty of clean water and a shady area out of the sun,” he began. “Dogs actually become more stressed than humans. Bring them inside in air conditioning or in a garage or other shelter from the sun. “It’s also important to make certain any cuts or skin infections are properly cared for,” Schmiesing continued, “And don’t forget flea control since flea infestations are worse in hot weather. “And,” he stressed, “never leave a dog or any animal in a hot parked car. Dogs can die in extreme heat.”

Court won’t revisit tax on satellite TV COLUMBUS (AP) — The U.S. Supreme Court won’t revisit whether Ohio was fair in imposing a sales tax on satellite TV companies that didn’t apply to cable competitors. On Wednesday, the
court rejected a request by DirecTV Inc. and Echostar Satellite Corp. to review the Ohio Supreme Court’s 2010 decision to uphold the nineyear-old tax. The satellite companies’ basic legal argument
was that subjecting them and not their cable competitors to the 5.5 percent sales tax violated their rights to interstate commerce, because their companies operate between states and cable companies operate within them.

Lawsuit dismissed COLUMBUS (AP) — A judge has dismissed a lawsuit brought over the Columbus city school district’s use of timeout rooms for children with severe emotional and behavioral problems. The March lawsuit filed by the Ohio Legal Rights Service was sparked by a parent’s complaint to the agency that her autistic son had been placed in such a room where he allegedly contracted a staph infection. The lawsuit alleged the district failed to provide the legal rights group with documents it requested about the rooms, including how many the district has and the names of students placed in them during this school year. U.S. District Court Judge Gregory Frost dismissed the lawsuit Wednesday at the request of the legal rights’ group, which said it has received the documents.

Trotwood man appears in court A Trotwood man appeared in Sidney Munici p a l Court on We d n e s day for his scheduled preliminary hearing for his alleged role in an Norton eighthour standoff that ended peacefully on June 18. Carl Bruce Norton Jr., 21, of Trotwood, waived his right to a preliminary hearing. By waiving his preliminary hearing, Norton’s case will be bound over to the Shelby County Common Pleas Court. He is cur-
rently incarcerated at the Shelby County Jail with a $40,000 bond. He is charged with aggravated robbery, a felony of the first degree and kidnapping, a felony of the second degree. Norton was taken into custody shortly after 11 p.m. on June 18 following a standoff at the Travel Inn that involved several local law enforcement agencies. The incident started when Sidney police received a report of a bank robbery in progress at the Chase Bank, 2030 Michigan St. Michigan Street was closed from Vandemark Road to Interstate 75 for several hours during the incident.
Two arrested after drug bust Two Sidney residents were arrested following a narcotics search by officers and detectives from the Sidney Police Department and t h e Shelby Kennedy County Sheriff’s Office. The search happened at 204 W. South St. around 9:40 a.m. on Wednesday. As a result of the search, evidence was recovered leading to the arrest of Isaac Kennedy, 18, and Georgina Kirtley, 43, both occupants of the residence. Kennedy was charged with one count of trafficking in drugs, a felony of the fourth degree, and one count of criminal tools, a felony of the fifth degree, Kirtley was charged with two counts of criminal tools felonies of the fifth degree. Both were in-
carcerated at the Shelby County Jail as result of the charges. When officers first entered the residence, they encountered a large aggressive male pit bull that was killed by officers. Discovered during the search were narcotics believed to be marijuana and instruments which were reportedly used for consumption of drugs of abuse. The warrant execution is a combined effort by the Sidney Shelby County Narcotics Task Force to combat drug abuse and drug trafficking in Shelby County. Information resulting in this warrant was derived in part from concerned citizens. All citizens of Shelby County are asked that if they have any information about drug activity to contact the Sidney Shelby County Narcotics Task Force at 498-8777 or Crime Stoppers at 4988477 (TIPS).

Company to pay $2.5M LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A Californiabased company accused of preying on veterans for their education benefits agreed Wednesday to pay $2.5 million to 20 states and turn over its website — GIBill.com — to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. The consumer protection settlement between the states and QuinStreet Inc. was filed Wednesday in a Frankfort, Ky., court. “The actions were unconscionable and purposefully drove veterans to for-profit colleges who were perhaps more interested in getting their hands on the federal benefits than in educating our soldiers and their families,” said Kentucky Attorney General Jack Conway in announcing the settlement. The agreement comes against a backdrop in which military veterans are a lucrative market for colleges. The newly expanded Post 9/11 G.I. Bill will pay colleges of all types around $9 billion this year to educate nearly 600,000 veterans. As a result, many colleges boast of being “military friendly and “veterans friendly.”

BARTHOLOMEW BROWN, a junior studying mechanical engineering at Cleveland State University, smokes as he reads a book between classes in Cleveland Tuesday. Smoking shouldn’t be one of the things kids learn at college, say state officials pushing sweeping tobacco-use bans on campuses across the country.
Colleges move toward total ban on smoking COLUMBUS (AP) — As a political science major at Ohio State University, Ida Seitter says, she lit up many a cigarette to help her through the stress of exam season. Right or wrong, they were her security blanket as she toiled through college. Seitter, now 26, was old enough by then to make her own decisions, she says. She opposes efforts by policymakers in Ohio, New York, California and other states to impose bans on tobacco use not just in buildings at public colleges, but also anywhere on the campus — even in the open air. “Just back away from me a little bit. I won’t blow it in your face and I’ll try not to be rude,” Seitter says. “At the same time, I think it’s a little discriminatory for a practice that is considered legal.” Bans on use, advertising and sales of tobacco in all its forms are being enacted or considered at perhaps half of campuses nationwide, sometimes over the objections of student smokers, staff and faculty. The movement is driven by mounting evidence of the health risks of secondhand smoke, the reduced costs of smokefree dorms and a drive to minimize enticements to smoke at a critical age for forming lifelong habits. California’s state system will begin to bar tobacco use in 2013. A ban on use and advertising at the City University of New York system goes into effect in September, and the University of Missouri at Columbia is going smoke-free in 2014. Ohio higher education
officials plan a vote next month urging all public campuses to ban tobacco use. That includes Ohio State, one of the nation’s largest universities, which currently bans only indoor smoking. According to the surgeon general’s report for 2012, tobacco use among people ages 18 to 25 remains at epidemic proportions nationwide. The review found 90 percent of smokers started by age 18, and 99 percent by age 26. About a quarter to a third of college students smoke, studies have found. The study found the U.S. would have 3 million fewer young smokers if success in reducing youth smoking by state tobaccocessation programs from 1997 to 2003 had been sustained. Many of the programs have been hit by budget cuts. Health and education officials, anti-smoking groups and a generation of students who grew up smoke-free are increasingly united on the issue, says Bronson Frick, associate director of Americans for Nonsmokers’ Rights. “There are many reasons why a college or university may choose to pursue this type of policy, whether secondhand smoke, dorm fires, or other issues,” he says. “They are also questioning what the role of tobacco is in this academic setting, where we’re supposed to be standing for truth and training the next generation of leaders.” According to data kept by the nonsmokers group, campus tobacco bans have risen from virtually
zero a decade ago to 711 today. That includes both four-year and two-year institutions, both public and private. One of the first campuses to ban tobacco was Ozarks Technical Community College in Springfield, Mo., which endorsed the move in 1999 and put it in place four years later. The school also established a research center that works with other colleges and hospitals pursuing similar moves, now known as the National Center for Tobacco Policy.
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is ramping up a fresh phase of his reelection bid with a bus tour next week, focusing more on direct engagement with voters and less on ritzy fundraisers. Obama’s two-day road trip through Pennsylvania and Ohio, two key battleground states in the November election, kicks off July 5, a campaign official said. It will be the president’s first bus tour of the 2012 campaign. The bus trip also will coincide with the release of the monthly nationwide jobs report, a key economic indicator that could directly affect the president’s re-election prospects. The most recent report, for May, showed a slight uptick in the unemployment rate, raising fears among Obama aides of an election-year economic slowdown. While Obama has been running for re-election for months, his ef-
forts thus far have focused largely on hauling in cash from supporters in dozens of fundraising events across the country as his campaign seeks to compete with energized Republican donors. He spent the early part of this week on a two-day, four-state fundraising blitz that brought in more than $5 million. The president will still headline campaign fundraisers through the fall, but the official said Obama’s schedule would start to include more of a mix of campaign rallies and other events focused on speaking directly to a wide swath of voters in the states Obama needs most in order to hold the White House. Further underscoring his strategy shift was his campaign’s announcement this week that Jennifer Psaki, a former senior White House aide, was joining the president’s re-election team as traveling press secretary.
Poll: Obama opening lead TOLEDO (AP) — A new poll shows President Barack Obama with a slightly larger lead over Republican Mitt Romney in Ohio compared with a similar survey nearly two months ago. The Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday finds Obama with 47 percent to 38 percent for Romney. The university’s poll in early May had them nearly even in Ohio. Other recent polls suggest Romney and Obama
are just about deadlocked in the state. The Quinnipiac poll taken over the last week shows Obama doing much better among women and independents. But it’s almost an even split between those who say the president deserves a second term and those who think he doesn’t deserve to be reelected. The survey of 1,237 Ohio voters has a margin of error of 3 percentage points.

CLEVELAND (AP) — A graduation-day wreck that killed four high school students occurred as their car raced at 69 mph over a sloping railroad crossing and went airborne at a well-known spot where motorists “jump” their vehicles, according to an accident reconstruction report. The 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier fell 5 feet to the ground and traveled almost 90 feet before landing, according to the State Highway Patrol report released Tuesday. The June 3 accident in Columbia Township southwest of Cleveland occurred hours before two of the victims were set to graduate from Brunswick High School. A fifth student was injured. The driver and two passengers, including the survivor, were wearing seatbelts, according to the report. There was no indication alcohol was involved. “The section of road where this crash took place appears to be a well-known location for residents of the area to ‘jump’ their vehicles,” the report said. “Fresh acceleration marks present on the eastern edge of the railway crossing also indicates area residents target this specific point to ‘jump’ vehicles.” The estimated speed when the car hit the ground was 59 mph. The vehicle’s data recorder indicated the brake wasn’t engaged. The road has a 55 mph speed limit. New signs set a 25 mph limit near the crossing. The accident killed driver, Jeffrey the Chaya, and Kevin Fox — both 18-year-olds who were scheduled to graduate later in the day — and Blake Bartchak, 17, and Lexi Poerner, 16. A 17-year-old girl, Julia Romito, was injured. She has been released from the hospital.

NATION/WORLD TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Thursday, June 28, the 180th day of 2012. There are 186 days left in the year. Today’s Highlights in History: On June 28, 1712, philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau, one of the most influential thinkers of the 18th century Enlightenment, was born in Geneva. On this date: ■ In 1778, the Revolutionary War Battle of Monmouth took place in New Jersey; it was from this battle that the legend of “Molly Pitcher” arose. ■ In 1836, the fourth president of the United States, James Madison, died in Montpelier, Va. ■ In 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and his wife, Sophie, were assassinated in Sarajevo by Serb nationalist Gavrilo Princip — the event which sparked World War I. ■ In 1919, the Treaty of Versailles was signed in France, ending the First World War. In Independence, Mo., future president Harry S. Truman married Elizabeth Virginia Wallace. ■ In 1922, the Irish Civil War began between rival nationalists over the Anglo-Irish Treaty establishing the Irish Free State. (The conflict lasted nearly a year, resulting in defeat for anti-treaty forces.) ■ In 1939, Pan American Airways began regular trans-Atlantic air service with a flight that departed New York for Marseilles, France. ■ In 1944, the Republican national convention in Chicago nominated New York Gov. Thomas E. Dewey for president and Ohio Gov. John W. Bricker for vice president. ■ In 1950, North Korean forces captured Seoul, the capital of South Korea. ■ In 1962, a jury in New York awarded $3.5 million to former radio-TV personality John Henry Faulk in his libel suit against the group AWARE Inc. and two individuals who’d accused him of Communist sympathies and gotten him blacklisted. (The judgment was reduced to $550,000 by an appeals court.) ■ In 1978, the Supreme Court ordered the University of California-Davis Medical School to admit Allan Bakke, a white man who argued he’d been a victim of reverse racial discrimination. ■ In 1981, a bomb exploded at the Tehran headquarters of Iran’s ruling Islamic Republic Party, killing 74 people, including Iran’s chief judge, Ayatollah Mohammad Beheshti. ■ In 2000, seven months after he was cast adrift in the Florida Straits, Elian Gonzalez was returned to his native Cuba.

Garlic easy to locate VIENNA (AP) — Austrian police did not need sniffing dogs to locate this suspected heist — 9.5 tons of garlic. The Austria Press Agency says police stopped three overloaded and sagging vans about to cross into Hungary from Austria on Wednesday and found them packed to the roof with the pungent cargo. After questioning the five men in the vehicles they charged them on suspicion of receiving stolen goods. Police say the garlic apparently came from Spain and estimate its value at (EURO)30,000 ($37,500). The men — all Romanian nationals — were not named, in line with Austrian privacy laws.

Today’s the day: Supeme Court to issue ruling on health care BY RICARDO ALONSO-ZALDIVAR Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — It seems as if the entire nation is holding its breath for the Supreme Court’s health care ruling — the presidential candidates, governors of virtually every state, insurers with billions at stake, companies large and small and countless millions of Americans concerned about their own medical care and how they’ll pay for it. Still, Thursday’s expected ruling almost certainly will not be the last word on the nation’s tangled efforts to address health care woes. The problems of high medical costs, widespread waste and tens of millions of people without insurance will require Congress and the president to keep looking for answers, whether or not President Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act passes the test of constitutionality. A look at potential outcomes: Q: What if the Supreme Court, despite justices’ blunt questions during public arguments, upholds the law and finds Congress was within its authority to require most people to have health insurance or pay a penalty? A: That would settle the legal argument but not the political battle. The clear winners if the law is upheld and allowed to take full effect would be uninsured people in the United States, estimated at more than 50 million. Starting in 2014, most could get coverage through a mix of private insurance and
Medicaid, a safety-net program. Republican-led states that have resisted creating health insurance markets under the law would have to scramble to comply, but the U.S. would get closer to other economically advanced countries that guarantee medical care for their citizens. Republicans would keep trying to block the law. They hope to elect Mitt Romney as president, backed by a GOP House and Senate, and repeal the law, although their chances of outright repeal would seem to be diminished by the court’s endorsement. Obama would feel the glow of vindication for his hardfought health overhaul, but it might not last long even if he’s re-elected. The nation still faces huge problems with health care costs, requiring major changes to Medicare that neither party has explained squarely to voters. Some backers of Obama’s law acknowledge it was only a first installment: Get most people covered, then deal with the harder problem of costs. Q: On the other hand, what if the court strikes down the entire law? A: Many people would applaud, polls suggest. Taking down the law would kill a costly new federal entitlement before it has a chance to take root and develop a clamoring constituency. But that still would leave the problems of high costs, waste and millions of uninsured people. Some Republicans in Congress already are talking about passing anew the more popular pieces of the law if it’s thrown out. But the major
Syria violence escalates BEIRUT (AP) — Gunmen attacked a pro-government TV station Wednesday near the Syrian capital, killing seven employees in the latest barrage of violence as world powers prepared for a high-level meeting that the U.S. hopes will be a turning point in the crisis. Invitations to Saturday’s gathering in Geneva were sent by special envoy Kofi Annan to the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council — including Syrian allies Russia and China — but not to major regional players Iran and Saudi Arabia. The absence of those two countries, as well as the lack of any appetite for international military intervention, could make it difficult for the group
to find the leverage to end the bloodshed in Syria. An effort by Annan to broker a peace plan failed earlier this year. Diplomatic hopes have rested on Russia — Syria’s most important ally and protector — agreeing on a transition plan that would end the Assad family dynasty, which has ruled Syria for more than four decades. But Moscow has rejected efforts by outside forces to end the conflict or any plan to force regime change in Damascus. The United Nations said Wednesday that the conflict, which began in March 2011 as part of the Arab Spring that swept aside entrenched leaders across the region, is descending into sectarian warfare.

CAROL ANDERSON of Williamsburg, Va., reads as she is the first person in line to attend the reading the of decision at the U.S. Supreme Court is on the eve of Thursday's expected ruling on whether or not the Affordable Care Act passes the test of constitutionality Wednesday in Washington. GOP alternatives to Obama’s law would not cover nearly as many uninsured, and it’s unclear how much of a dent they would make in costs. Some liberals say Medicare-for-all, or government-run health insurance, will emerge as the only viable answer if Obama’s public-private approach fails. People who already have health insurance could lose
some ground as well. Employers and insurance companies would have no obligation to keep providing popular new benefits such as preventive care with no copayments and coverage for young adults until age 26 on a parent’s plan. Medicare recipients with high prescription drug costs could lose discounts averaging about $600.
Lawmakers reach compromise WASHINGTON (AP) — Facing weekend deadlines for action, congressional leaders have agreed to deals overhauling the nation’s transportation programs without a Republican provision forcing approval of the proposed Keystone XL oil pipeline, and avoiding a doubling of interest rates for new student loans, congressional officials said Wednesday. The agreements underscored the pressures both parties face to avoid angering voters and facing embarrassing headlines in the run-up to this November’s presidential and congressional elections. Letting road-building programs grind to a halt during an economic downturn would be a blow to the image of lawmakers, while Democrats and Republicans alike seemed eager to avoid en-
raging millions of students and their parents by boosting the costs of college loans. In contrast, enactment of the transportation measure would create or save 3 million jobs, said Sen. Barbara Boxer, DCalif., chief sponsor of the Senate version of the bill. And the student loan measure would spare an estimated 7.4 million students who get subsidized Stafford loans beginning July 1 — this Sunday — from facing $1,000 in higher interest costs over the lives of their loans, which typically take over a decade to repay. Congressional leaders were planning to combine the highway and student loan measures into a single bill to reduce potential procedural obstacles and hoped for final approval this week.
Heat wave: 1,000+ records fall in week BY SETH BORENSTEIN Associated Press Feeling hot? It’s not a mirage. Across the United States, hundreds of heat records have fallen in the past week. From the wildfire-consumed Rocky Mountains to the baconfried sidewalks of Oklahoma, the temperatures are creating consequences ranging from catastrophic to comical. In the past week, 1,011 records have been broken around the country, including 251 new daily high temperature records on Tuesday. Those numbers might seem big, but they’re hard to put into context — the National Climatic Data Center has only been tracking the daily numbers broken for a little more than a year, said Derek Arndt, head of climate monitoring at the center. Still, it’s impressive, given that records usually aren’t broken until the scorching months of July and August. “Any time you’re breaking all-time records in mid- to lateJune, that’s a healthy heat wave,” Arndt said. If forecasts hold, more records could fall in the coming

Syrian Christians VB feel vulnerable Fletcher as country burns United ACATION
IBLE SCHOOLS
BEIRUT (AP) — Inside the besieged Syrian city of Homs, where hundreds of civilians are caught up in a fierce battle between rebels and government troops, a small group of Christians is making its own desperate pleas for safety. Christians, who make up about 10 percent of Syria’s population, say they are particularly vulnerable to the violence sweeping the country of 22 million people. They are fearful that Syria will become another Iraq, with Christians caught in the crossfire between rival Islamic groups. “What is happening in these neighborhoods pains our hearts,” said Maximos al-Jamal, a Greek Orthodox priest who is still in Homs. He says about 90 of the civilians in two besieged Homs neighborhoods are Christians, down from thousands who lived in the area before the uprising began. “Before we were staying here to guard our homes but now the situation is unbearable,” one Homs resident told The Associated Press by telephone, asking that his name not be used for fear of reprisals by both sides of the conflict. He said he feared the rebels want to keep the Christians trapped in the city as a bargaining chip while the army’s bombardment and ground attacks on the city intensify. Syrian Christians have largely stuck by President Bashar Assad, fearing the strength of Muslim hard-liners in the uprising against his rule. Several mediators have made an urgent appeal to evacuate the Christians who they fear could be targeted for their religion. Syrian Christians don’t have to look far for an example of brutal treatment. Hundreds of thousands of Christians fled Iraq after their community and others were repeatedly targeted by extremist militants in the chaotic years after Saddam Hussein’s 2003 ouster. The Christians, who are trapped in Homs’ Hamidiyeh and Bustan Diwan neighborhoods, include four children under the age of 10. There is barely any electricity or running water, telephone lines are unreliable and they are forced to hide in shelters during daily shelling.

Participants attended from 37 states, the District of Columbia, and 12 international countries. Participants ranged in age from 16 to 70 with a variety of occupations and professions. Each graduate received a certificate of completion in recognition of completing The Way of Abundance and Power series. Students returned to their local communities with a greater sense of Christian service, event organizers said.

stern of the boat, sleeping on a pillow. The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?” Jesus got up, rebuked the wind, and said to the waves, “Peace. Be still. The wind and the waves immediately died down and it was completely calm. Jesus then said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Don’t you have faith yet (Common English Bible)?”
Out of work Thrown out of work, faced with an unexpected and frightening medical diagnosis, struggling with financial pressures, caught in a personal relationship that seems to be hopelessly deteriorating, or crushed by a phone call that comes, and all of a sudden our heart sinks into pain and anguish, we cry out to God in spite of ourselves, “Don’t you care if I drown?” Today turmoil comes from outside circumstances just like the disciples faced in the little boat, but also there is inner turmoil, the kind that cuts away within us, and tears us apart emotionally and mentally. No matter what the cause, we can cry out to God, and he is never absent or asleep, but ever present, and God will speak to the storm that is within our torn and tossed spirits. God will give us peace that passes all understanding, and he will deliver us. However, we must truly want to be delivered.
Stepping out In short, there is a stepping out in faith that is necessary along with a willingness, to let go of, or turn away from, those things that are destroying us. The disciples called out for help and God met them at their time of need. David stepped out in faith, and God was with him. When we cry out for help, whatever the need may be, no matter how large or small, God will be there and God is more powerful than any force or hardship we may face. God can and will deliver his children who cry out in faith. He always has and he always will. The writer is the pastor at Springcreek Christian Church of rural Sidney.

SIDNEY MIDDLE School student Katie Young, daughter of Deb Young, of Sidney, pets a goat during a recent event at Sidney Middle School.
Farm animals visit school A group of multipledisabilities students at Sidney Middle School recently hosted a group of unlikely visitors — farm animals. A friend of SMS teacher Cheryl Clark brought the animals to the school so students could have a preview of their upcoming field trip to Marmon Valley Farm in Zanesfield. Students in the two MD units at Sidney Middle School visited Marmon Valley Farm in late May. Students participated in a hayride, farm animal tour and mini lecture about animals and the opportunity
of a pony ride. “None of our kids had ever seen farm animals up close and personal,” Clark said. “We wanted to give our students an opportunity to feed, touch and get close to the animals they will see on the farm prior to the field trip, so that the field trip would be more educational and understandable.” Students were able to pet and feed a calf, donkey, baby goat, llama and horse during the visit to SMS. They were also given the opportunity to milk a dairy goat.

DR. WALLACE: I’m writing in response to your answer to the y o u n g w o m a n who went to, as she calls it, a “ f o r tuneteller.” The fortuneteller ’Tween a d v i s e d 12 & 20 her that Dr. Robert e r h Wallace boyfriend was not going to marry her. The woman was upset with the answer and wanted you to tell her the fortuneteller is a fraud and that she and her boyfriend would probably marry and live happily ever after. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what you did. Shame on you. I can tell you have never witnessed someone with a gift such as a medium, telekinetic, clairvoyant or telepathic. I am a psychic and a parapsychologist. You show your ignorance when you tell this girl that no human being can accurately predict the future. This is simply not true. My grandmother is a practicing palmist and “future” teller who is over 90 percent correct on her predictions. After all, nobody is perfect. She says that lines on the palm directly correspond to certain events. In the very near future, psychics will play a major role in total world peace. I read in a magazine that former President Ronald Reagan’s wife, Nancy, was a strong believer that certain humans can accurately predict future happenings. Everyone has a reason for being alive, even those few fortunate gifted humans who can peer into the future. I know that you will not change your mind on this subject, but will you please allow me to have my thoughts on this subject. — Sanjee, San Francisco, Calif. SANJEE: I have received several comments from readers who say that they have the ability to peer into the future and asked me to change my mind. I do not believe the future is accessible to human beings, but I respect their views, and I appreciate that you took the time to state your case. In case you can predict the future, please tell me what year the Chicago Cubs will win a world championship. If your prediction is true, I’ll be a very wealthy guy because I’ll watch the World Series in Las Vegas. But I won’t be rich long. The majority of the winnings would be given to help lower our national debt. My only splurge would be a two-week vacation in Ireland. Dr. Robert Wallace welcomes questions from readers. Although he is unable to reply to all of them individually, he will answer as many as possible in this column. Email him at rwallace@galesburg.net.

McArdle named SCCC director There’s a new person in charge of the Shelby County Counseling Cent e r (SCCC) at 1101 N. Vandem a r k Road. McArdle L y n M c Ar d l e has been named as new director following the resignation of Ken Ward during a recent board of directors meeting. McArdle has been executive director of Darke County Recovery in Greenville for the past 18 years. He said he plans to combine some of the office administrative staff to increase efficiency. Chairman Board Jesse Kent said he is encouraged by McArdle’s experience in Darke County. “Lyn is a people person,” said Kent. “He is going to work hard to get connected in this community by making new
relationships and strengthening old ones. Lyn has the complete confidence of the board to lead this agency.” The resignation of Ward was not the only personnel change at the recent meeting. Business Director Peggy Puthoff resigned from her position as well. According to Kent, both Ward and Puthoff “stated they were off to take on new opportunities and challenges,” but neither were available for comment. “They have gone on to accept different career challenges and the board is pleased that we’re heading in this new direction,” Kent said. He noted the SCCC will be working with Darke County Recovery on business matters and will not be filling the local business director position. The SCCC provides drug, alcohol and mental health services to anyone, regardless of their ability to pay.
ASSAULT
From Page 1
Ohio Department of Natural Resources Watercraft Officer Travis Martin rushed to subdue Russell. As he fought and continued to throw punches, Russell shouted obscenities. At the time of the incident there were several people in the courtroom and they were quickly ushered out. The courtroom was closed for a short time around 10 a.m. as evidence was collected and Hegemann was evaluated by paramedics from Sidney Fire and Emergency Services. Hegemann was reportedly transported to Wilson Memorial Hospital with minor injuries and later released. Hegemann was representing Russell as a public defender. No one else was injured during the incident. Russell was appearing in court for assault, vandalism and criminal damaging charges which stemmed from a Tuesday morning incident. That incident reportedly began as a domestic dispute about 1 a.m. with his live-in girlfriend, who escaped the situation early and was not involved in the standoff. Russell was reportedly armed with a knife and throwing household goods out of the windows and down the stairs. Officers on the scene called for additional assistance at 1:31 a.m. Russell also threw paint cans at officers and some of their uniforms were ruined by the paint. Charges have not yet been filed against Russell stemming from the court incident but his actions are under review by the Shelby County Prosecutor. He is expected to appear in court Friday morning.
FIRE The two barns which were complete losses were storage barns where feed, straw, hay and other items were kept. There was also a skid loader which was destroyed. The fire spread from the two storage barns and into the milking parlor. Huelskamp said that there were six cows in a pen in the milking parlor that died in the fire. There were also seven calves that died. The damage to the milking parlor halted the farm’s ability to milk cows for several hours. According to Huelskamp the farm milks around

Commissioners approve sales tax distribution Shelby County commissioners Tuesday morning adopted separate resolutions implementing a 0.5 percent sales tax to begin April 1, 2013, also adding two line items to county appropriations for distribution of the tax. The first resolution replaces the current 0.5 percent sales tax for roads and bridges which expires March 3i, 2013. The second resolution creates a line item for capital improvements for the county’s infrastructure and another for the road and bridge program. collected Revenue from the tax levy will be divided equally between the two line items. Commissioners conducted two public hearings this month on the proposed levy changes, designed to create a $5 million capital improve-
ment program to replace failing HVAC and electrical systems in the courthouse, annex and jail. The county’s sales tax will not change with the adoption of the two resolutions. Commissioners met with Bridget Davis, CASA program director, and Tiffany Kemp, Victim Services program director, to review grant funding for 2012-2013. The CASA breakdown includes a $10,920 VOCA grant award and a $3,640 project match from the county for a $14,640 project total and a $7,247 SVAA grant award. Victim Services funding includes a $42,071 VOCA grant and a $10,518 project match

There were at least four tanker trucks used to supply water. Perry-Port-Salem and Sidney medics also responded to provide assistance. The fire remains under investigation. There was no damage estimate available at press time.
from the county for a $52, 589 project total and a $44,557 SVAA grant award. The board of commissioners also met with Glen Pratt, an attorney representing Alcore Senior Inc. an organization interested in developing an assisted living in Shelby facility county. Commissioners issued a resolution of intention to issue revenue mortgage bonds for development of such a facility. The resolution in no way obligates the county financially, but creates a positive economic development opportunity. Commissioners said it would provide about 25 new jobs with a payroll of $700,000.

The milking parlor reportedly had a lot of damage to some of the equipment and the roof was removed from the building. “The fire built up in there and they pulled the roof off to get to the

One test isn’t sufficient evidence to prove testosterone deficiency. A repeat is necessary.

Are the calcium supplements I take responsible for this? — B.H. ANSWER: No, they’re not. Plaque (a buildup of fat, cholesterol and calcium) on an artery wall doesn’t come from supplements. It comes mostly from aging. The calcium contribution to plaque results from inflammation of the artery wall. It’s the body’s way of stifling inflammation.

If you are interested in him with an eye on becoming a couple, accept his invitation.

I am one of your male readers. I have a sister, “Eileen,” who is a bit older. We had a wonderful childhood and are close. When Eileen entered college, she became pregnant. Because she was
unmarried, she and Mom went to a different city and she had the baby. I believe the child was placed for adoption. I don’t know if it was a boy or girl. Eileen returned home, finished college, got married and now has a family. It was never mentioned again. I sometimes wonder if she thinks about the baby she had. I think about it a lot and wonder if I should ask her, or if it’s too painful for her to discuss after all these years. I sometimes think I have a niece or nephew out there and wonder what he or she is like. Should I ask my sister or just leave it alone? — WISTFUL OUT WEST DEAR WISTFUL: I’m sure your sister also sometimes thinks about the child she placed for adoption and wonders what he or she is like. However, unless she raises the subject with you, my advice is to leave it alone. If it has never been mentioned again, there is a good reason for it.

Roe heads for Trials Sidney High grad will swim the 50 free Saturday in Omaha BY KEN BARHORST kbarhorst@sdnccg.com Derick Roe thought he had traded in his swimming gear for a coach’s whistle. But someone had other ideas. Roe, the Sidney High grad who went on to a spectacular swimming career at Eastern Michigan, will compete in the Olympic Trials this weekend in the 50-meters in Omaha. He says he knows he’s a longshot to make the Olympic team. Only the top two in the event make the squad, and there are 170 entered. But he calls it a “very lofty goal.” Roe was content to just continue his career as an assistant coach at Colgate, in Hamilton, N.Y. “I thought I had hung up my suit and retired from swimming competitively when I finished college. But once I got to Colgate, the head coach was my coach when we went to the Olympic Trials in 2008. He said if there was one swimmer he wished he could have coached longer, it was me.” The head coach is Fernando J. Canales, and he

Roe will be swimming in the Olympic Trials this weekend. hired Roe right after he got the head coaching position at Colgate. So the two have been at the university for the past two years. “Last summer, it became clear I was going to try (for the Olympics) again,” Roe said. “He entered me into a Grand Prix event. He just said, ‘hey,
you’re going to swim.’ ” And with only 10 days of practice, Roe was only slightly off the Olympic Trials cut. “Just being able to race against that level of competition was a real rush,” Roe said. He will swim in the Trials on Saturday, which will be his
25th birthday. As you might expect, he’s been working hard getting ready. “All throughout the year, I was more focused on my career because that’s what I want to do long term,” Roe said. “So I just stayed in shape mainly out of the pool. Once our season was over, that’s when I really started picking it up.” He finished 17th in the Trials back in 2008. “For the 50 free, only two make the team so that’s a long shot and a very lofty goal,” Roe added. “But I was swimming for two straight years without a day off and I was 17th. I would love to make the top 16. It’s really hard to predict, but I’m as confident as I’ve ever been. I think I have a good shot at the top 16, but it’s a crapshoot. Even the best swimmers in the world canhave a bad start. “It feels great to get back,” he said. “I love swimming and I love the rush that I get from the 50 free.” The prelims and finals will be broadcast on NBC and NBC Sports. All prelims will be on NBC Sports with the finals starting at 8 p.m. on NBC.
Brewers avoid sweep
Albers Homers cost Reds’ Bailey in 8-4 loss reaches semifinals
CINCINNATI (AP) — No sidestepping it. The Milwaukee Brewers felt they had to win this game. After dropping four in a row and falling 8 1/2 games out, the defending NL Central champions were feeling the pressure on Wednesday. They got two-run homers from Rickie Weeks and Cody Ransom that set up an 8-4 victory over the Cincinnati Reds and eased their angst. “We needed it,” manager Ron Roenicke said. They had the right guy on the mound to get it. Zack Greinke (9-2) remained unbeaten against the Reds, allowing two runs in six innings. Greinke improved to 4-0 in six career starts against first-place Cincinnati, which now leads the Brewers by 7 1/2 games. “We’ve been playing good all month, just not really putting any streaks together,” Greinke said. “We should be winning more games than we are. “We’re a little bit out, but we’ve got a lot of talent on this team. If we get on a little roll, things can change,” he added. Bailey (5-6) has had nothing but trouble against Milwaukee, falling to 0-5 in 10 games with a 6.50 ERA. He left after failing to get an out in the fifth inning, trailing 52. The Brewers came to town hoping to take at least two of three and get back in the race. A slumping offense held them back the first two games. They didn’t even manage a hit until the eighth inning of a 4-3 loss on Tuesday night. Milwaukee broke out with 11 hits on Wednesday, including two doubles, a triple and two homers. “One thing the Brewers have always been able to do is hit the ball out of the ballpark,” Reds manager Dusty Baker said. “If you don’t make quality pitches, they’ll reach the fences.” The Brewers wasted a bases-loaded, none-out chance to break the game open in the seventh inning,

Milwaukee put it away with three in the ninth off Jose Arredondo, who walked Aramis Ramirez and Corey Hart with the bases loaded. Weeks hit a two-run homer in the second off Bailey, who snapped his glove toward the ground in anger as soon as the ball left the bat. Center fielder Chris Heisey jumped for the ball at the wall, but couldn’t quite reach it. Weeks’ first homer since May 26 left him 11 of 20 ca-
reer off Bailey with a pair of homers. It also made it 65 consecutive games at Great American Ball Park with at least one homer, the longest such streak since an 80-game stretch at Coors Field in 200203. Ransom hit a two-run homer in the fourth for a 5-1 lead. Since the Brewers claimed him off waivers from Arizona on May 23, he’d been batting only .152 with one other homer. See REDS/Page 15
OMAHA, Neb.

Coming back just 20 minutes after the semifinals of the 200 free, she caught Coughlin on the return lap to win with an American record of 58.85. Coughlin started strong and was under world-record pace at the turn. But the 29-year-old couldn't hold off two teenagers. Eighteen-year-old Rachel Bootsma got past the 11-time Olympic medalist, as well, claiming the second Olympic spot in 59.49. Coughlin was third in 1 minute, 0.06 seconds.

SPRINT CUP SERIES Track: Kentucky Speedway Race: Quaker State 400 Location: Sparta, Ky. When: Saturday, June 30 TV: TNT (6:30 p.m. EST) Banking/Turns: 14 degrees Banking/Tri-Oval: 8 degrees Banking/Backstretch: 4 degrees 2011 Winner: Kyle Busch Crew Chief’s Take: “Being a new venue last year, people didn’t know exactly what to expect. Although Kentucky is a 1.5-mile track, it has a lot of unique characteristics: It is really bumpy getting into Turn 1, and the banking continues off of Turn 4 a long way. It is flatter in the corners than places like Charlotte and Texas, so that also changes things with the setup. This year, teams will be better prepared for the challenges that Kentucky will bring them.”
Sonoma Surprise
Sprint Cup victory in only his 16th start for Michael Waltrip Racing, which enjoyed its third Cup triumph. MWR’s previous wins came with David Reutimann behind the wheel of the disbanded No. 00 entry (Charlotte 2009, Chicago 2010). Bowyer’s five previous victories came while driving at Richard Childress Racing. The last time a car numbered 15 went to Victory Lane was in 2003, when Michael Waltrip drove a DEI Chevy to the win at Talladega. SO CLOSE Kurt Busch nearly gave 2 team owner James Finch his first victory since 2009, when Brad Keselowski drove a Phoenix Racing car to the win at Talladega. Busch challenged Bowyer through the second half of the Toyota/Save Mart 350 and appeared to have a stronger car. However, he clipped a tire barrier in the closing laps and broke the rear sway bar. He finished third. FLAIR Nelson Pi3 INTERNATIONAL quet Jr. grabbed his first Nationwide Series win in only his third start on the circuit at Road America.

Clint Bowyer emerges from his car to celebrate his win at Sonoma.
Clint Bowyer takes first Cup road course win in California By MATT TALIAFERRO Athlon Sports Racing Editor
Perhaps Clint Bowyer’s win on the road course in Sonoma, Calif., should not have come as a surprise. After all, the seven-year NASCAR Sprint Cup veteran had recorded four top 10s in six starts at the 1.99-mile course prior to Sunday’s Toyota/Save Mart 350. Still, Bowyer, a Kansas native with Midwest dirt-tracking roots, has never been considered anywhere near a “road course ringer,” as the NASCAR types like to label those who excel when turning left and right. But Bowyer, crew chief Brian Pattie and their Michael Waltrip Racing crew became the eighth different team to go to Victory Lane at Sonoma in as many visits, fending off a feisty challenge from Kurt Busch and Tony Stewart in the final laps on the 12-turn road course. “Quietly, we’ve had good runs here,” a beaming Bowyer said following the win. “This is probably, quietly, been one of my favorite racetracks.” The victory was Bowyer’s first of the season and the first for MWR’s No. 15 team — a group pieced together late last season — and one Bowyer referred to as a bunch of “refugees.” “Basically, (I) kind of lost my ride at RCR (in 2011), walked into a new program with a lot of unknowns, and I had a lot of confidence in what was going on,” Bowyer said of what
brought him to MWR. “I still had confidence in myself. Michael, Rob Kaufmann (co-owner), everybody involved with MWR, paired me with Brian Pattie and paired me with a lot of good people and that’s what it takes to be successful in any good business and NASCAR racing is no exception.” Pattie’s “refugee” status was not much different than Bowyer’s. A crew chief for Juan Pablo Montoya at Earnhardt Ganassi Racing, Pattie was given his walking papers in mid-July with the team floundering at 17th place in the point standings (it was 21st by season’s end. Waltrip came calling in the fall). “I was in the same boat (Bowyer) was — he lost his ride and I lost my job,” Pattie said. “Last summer was eye-opening for me personally and career-wise. (I) had a lot of supporters call whenever times changed at my previous employer, and I’m just blessed to be here.” That Bowyer, Pattie and crew have pieced together nine top 10s in less than a half season together, are solidly in the top 10 in points and now have a win in their pocket to fall back on speaks to the immediate chemistry alive and well within the team. And the progress made by the organization as a whole is evident in the other cars in the stable. Martin Truex Jr., in the No. 56 car, sits ninth in points (Bowyer is seventh), while Mark Martin and Brian Vickers have split duties in the No. 55 to the tune of four top 5s. Bowyer’s move from Richard Childress Racing to MWR was seen by some as a lateral one, at best. But the

Toyota-backed company that first took to the Cup Series in 2007 has grown exponentially. Waltrip credits a better working relationship with fellow Toyota team Joe Gibbs Racing as a major reason. “I give Andy Graves a lot of credit any time I’m asked about where we are today,” Waltrip said. “The reason for that is simple: I went to him in January of 2011 and I said, ‘Are our cars as good as Job Gibbs’ cars?’ And he said, ‘No, they are not, because you don’t trust our process.’ “I said, ‘Well, we are changing directions, and we are going to start following you.’” While JGR has outclassed MWR in the win column this season, the latter’s consistency and reliability win the day. And Bowyer’s No. 15 team is leading the charge, riding a streak of four consecutive runs of seventh or better. For a first-year group competing against established teams with years of experience together, it makes the bunch a dangerous — albeit unproven — one as the circuit hits the homestretch to NASCAR’s playoffs. “It’s a long row to hoe before the Chase,” Bowyer said. “Everybody is in this sport because of the Chase and you can’t win a championship without being a part of that elite group. “I missed it (the Chase banquet in Las Vegas) last year and it sucked to sit at home and watch. I did get to deer hunt a little bit but I would much rather be partying.” If the post-race scene in Sonoma is any indication, Bowyer and crew have the chemistry to throw the most epic party Vegas has seen in some time.
ments and contributions to the team, and will always consider him a part of the Roush Fenway family.” In his time with the team, Kenseth has scored 22 career Cup wins, including two Daytona 500 titles (2009, ’12) and the 2003 Cup championship. Defending Nationwide Series champion Ricky Stenhouse Jr. will replace Kenseth in 2013. While Kenseth has not officially commented on where he will land, speculation centers on Joe Gibbs Racing, which could expand to a four-car operation or place Kenseth in its No. 20 Home Depot Toyota.

Classic Moments Kentucky Speedway David Gilliland scored one of the great upsets in Nationwide Series history in the 2006 Meijer 300 at Kentucky Speedway. Fresh off the K&N Pro Series West short tracks, Gilliland qualified a Clay Andrewsowned Chevrolet fourth and ran at the front of the field until the first round of pit stops. Andrews’ independent team employed an over-the-wall gang that did Gilliland no favors, routinely taking upwards of 19 seconds to complete a stop. However, the setup that crew chief Bill Wilburn put in the car was right, and the Riverside, Calif., native was able to drive it from mid-pack to the front each time. The decisive pass came with 11 laps to go, when Gilliland powered by J.J. Yeley’s Joe Gibbs Racing entry. He held on through a final caution period to earn his lone Nationwide Series win to date.
Athlon Fantasy Stall Looking at Checkers: Jimmie Johnson is averaging an 5.5-place finish (two wins) on the intermediate tracks this season. Pretty Solid Pick: Dale Earnhardt Jr. has been surprisingly competitive on the 1.5milers this season. Good Sleeper Pick: No guarantees, but Joey Logano has four top 10s in the last six races, including a win at Pocono. Runs on Seven Cylinders: Don’t be fooled by all the Michael Waltrip/Kentucky hype you’re bound to hear this week. Insider Tip: Kyle Busch was dominiant here last year, but the engine issues of late are cause for concern.

It’s a toss up at the top, but J.J. has more wins and, as evidenced by his top-5 run at Sonoma is a more well-rounded driver than Earnhardt or Kenseth. That said, championships are not won on road courses, so Junior’s 23rd-place showing — to be fair, he ran around 15th most of the day — will not hurt his title quest. Can a “lame duck” driver win a championship? We know a crew chief can (see: Grubb, Darian). We’ll find out, as Kenseth leads the point standings but has an eye on new digs in 2013. Stewart has always been a somewhat streaky NASCAR driver, and his third-, second- and secondplace runs in the last three weeks find him on a hot one. Impressive seventh at Sonoma finds Biffle back in second in the point standings, just 11 points behind his Roush Fenway teammate. Kentucky should be good to him. Prior to his win in Sonoma, Bowyer had clicked off three consecutive finishes of seventh or better. What was surprising was that a dirt tracker from Kansas took his first win at MWR on a road course. Hamlin won earlier this season in Kansas and, let’s be honest, what’s the difference between that cookie cutter and the one in Kentucky? Last season’s Watkins Glen winner only registered a 12th at Sonoma, and was never really in contention. He needs to get out of the 12th- to 18th-place hole he’s been in of late. Truex led 15 laps and ran in the top 5 for a large part of the day until contact with Joey Logano on the final lap knocked him from sixth to 22nd. That’s tough to take, folks. Pit strategy wasn’t in Kahne’s favor on Sunday. In fact, he slipped from a certain top-10 run to 22nd only to rebound late and salvage a respectable 14th-place showing. TNT is just now noticing that Harvick ran out of fuel during a round of green flag pit stops. Ruffled quite a few feathers (including a teammate’s) en route to his third straight road course top 10. Pre-race favorite in Sonoma disappointed with a loose-handling car, managing a sixth-place finish. Grabbed second straight pole and second straight top 10 (Michigan and Sonoma). He’s ranked in the top 15 on raw talent alone. Has averaged a 27th in the last four races. Jeff Burton, Carl Edwards, Mark Martin, Paul Menard, Ryan Newman

Browns’ DT Taylor itching to return, but won’t rush it BY JEFF SCHUDEL AP Exchange Phil Taylor says he is “itching” to play football, but the mammoth Browns defensive tackle has no plans to suit up again until he is 100 percent. Taylor is recovering from surgery to repair a torn left pectoral muscle suffered while lifting weights on May 10. He was in the Browns’ training complex Tuesday morning and walked onto the practice field to meet Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III, who was in Berea with the other NFC rookies as part of the NFL Rookie Symposium. Taylor, the Browns’ firstround pick in 2011, and Griffin were teammates at Baylor. Griffin was
the second pick of the 2012 draft. General Manager Tom Heckert is confident Taylor will play in 2012 and predicted a midseason return. Taylor hasn’t started lifting weights but is working on his range of motion. He said he was lifting “three (hundred) something” when he was injured, but won’t be more specific. “I really didn’t know what happened because it didn’t hurt that much,” Taylor said. “I thought I just strained it, but obviously after the MRI it wasn’t just a strain.” Taylor talked to a teammate who became an expert on pectoral injuries — linebacker D’Qwell Jackson. Jackson missed 10
REDS The Brewers loaded the bases with no outs in the seventh, but Norichika Aoki struck out and Ransom was caught in a rundown off a failed suicide squeeze attempt with Nyjer Morgan, who got ready to bunt but pulled the bat back when the pitch was low.

games with a torn left pectoral muscle in 2009. He tore his right pec in training camp in 2010 and missed the entire season. Jackson returned last year and started every game. He led the team with 158 tackles. “He gave me lots of words of encouragement,” Taylor said. “He told me not to come back too early and keep my head up and keep working hard. “I’m itching to get back, but I’m not going to rush it. When I know it’s time for me to be out there, I’ll be out there.” Scott Paxson took most of the first-team reps as Taylor’s replacement during minicamp earlier this month. Taylor said the Browns “won’t miss a beat” with Paxson. He
From Page 13 in the ninth inning. The fan reached for the ball and grabbed Morgan’s glove. The outfielder yanked it away, and the fan yelled something at Morgan, who waved as he went back to his position. “Our hands just got tangled up,” Morgan said. “One of those things. I gave him a little ‘get-off-me.’ He was doing his part and trying to help his team out.” Greinke allowed five
hits and a pair of runs in six innings, including Ryan Ludwick’s solo homer. Ludwick had another solo shot in the ninth. Reds Gold Glove second baseman Brandon Phillips got hit in the face by Ramirez’s arm while tagging him out on a steal attempt in the third. Phillips was a little dizzy and left the game three innings later as a precaution.
also predicted rookies Billy Winn and John Hughes will see plenty of action. Taylor had an up-anddown rookie season in 2011. The grind did not affect him as much as it does some rookies because he prepared his body and mind for it. He said he was looking forward to building on a strong finish, but now that will have to wait. “I think I progressed a lot,” Taylor said. “In the beginning, I wasn’t playing so well because I was still learning, but toward the end I started to get things down. I did a lot better, but I still have a long way to go. I have a lot to learn.” Taylor finished seventh on the Browns with 59 tackles last year.
Sidney Post 217 finished 2-2 in the Dick Kuehn Wooden Bat Tournament in American Legion baseball action in Cincinnati. Sidney took on IDA of Michigan in its first game and got a gem of a pitching performance from Treg Francis, who went all seven innings and allowed just three hits. He fanned two and walked four in the 4-0 victory. He also led Sidney at the plate with two hits in three trips. Jake Lochard added a double. Sidney scored all four of its runs in the fourth inning, on five of its eight hits in the game. “Treg pitched a great game,” said Legion coach Jason McLain. “He kept them off balance. Treg has been a reliable pitcher all year and has shown he can play upper level baseball.” • Sidney then took on Worthington of Ohio and was roughed up by a 130 score. Sidney was outhit 165. Two of Sidney’s hits from Dalton came Bollinger in three at-bats. “We came out flat against a very big and very good Worthington team,” said McLain. “These were a bunch of college players that did a good job of captalizing on our mistakes. They outplayed us in all aspects of the game.” • Sidney then won a thriller in its next outing, edging MJ Riverdogs Post 281 8-7. Nick Buchanan went the first six and Lochard the seventh. Sidney started off with a four-run first inning on just two hits, and added a run in the third. But the Riverdogs tied it with three in the third, then took the lead with one in the fourth and two in the fifth. Sidney came back with two in the sixth and won it with a run in the seventh. Ryan Miller had a pair of doubles for Sidney. “This was a good battle,” said McLain. “We hit the ball well and so
did they. Jake Lochard did a great job of coming in and closing the game in the seventh to get the win. Nick Buchanan battled all day and did a good job of keeping us in the game. And both of Ryan’s doubles were big.” • Sidney’s fourth was against game Cincinnati Yeager Blue. Sidney managed only five hits in losing 8-1. Bollinger had two of the hits. “We had a lot of errors and were lacking intensity in this game,” said McLain. “We made a lot of mistakes that ultimately cost us a lot of runs in the fourth inning. But we played hard all weekend, and our two losses were to the two teams that played in the championship game (Worthington won). We just need to eliminate the mental and physical errors before we can have a chance to win a tournament.” • Sidney returned to its normal schedule on Tuesday and defeated Dayton Dynasty 7-2 on the road. After a scoreless first two innings, Sidney scored at least once in each of the last five to pull out the win. Alex White led a seven-hit attack with a single and a double, and both Storm Walter and Kaleb Earick had triples. Nick Lauth went the distance for Sidney and had just one rough inning, allowing both runs and five of the nine hits in the fifth. “Nick pitched a good game and gave us the opportunity to win,” said McLain. “Our players hit the ball behind him and played well enough to win. We still need to have better pitch selection and fielding. We have had a lot of errors in the last several games that we need to eliminate before the district tourney.” Sidney is back in action Friday at Piqua at 7 p.m., then hosts Findlay in a doubleheader on Saturday starting at noon.

CLEVELAND (AP) — LeBron James wasn’t given much help via the NBA draft when he played for the Cavaliers. Kyrie I r v i n g won’t have Beal the same problem. With the No. 4 overall pick, another in the first round (No. 24) and two in the second round (No. 33 and 34), the Cavs are armed with assets to get at least one quality player and maybe more to support Irving, the talented point guard and reigning rookie of the year who proved to be the perfect choice for Cleveland. Taking Irving last June was an easy decision for the team. This year, the choice isn’t so simple. The Cavs, who found some optimism despite a 21-45 record last season, have considered packing picks in a trade to move up and get a coveted player. They also know they can stay where they’re at and wind up with a solid player like North Carolina forward Harrison Barnes, Kentucky forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist or Syracuse guard Dion Waiters, any of whom would immediately slide into Cleveland’s starting lineup. With all the uncertainty, one thing is clear, once Kentucky center Anthony Davis is taken with the top overall pick by the New Orleans Hornets, anything’s possible. There’s no telling what Charlotte and Washington will do with the respective Nos. 2 and

NEW YORK (AP) — For a team that just got swept and ran its losing streak to a season-high five games, the Cleveland Indians had plenty to be optimistic about. They put together better at bats against the Yankees in the finale than they had in the first two games, they put the go-ahead run on base in the ninth, and they even got another nice start on the road from Ubaldo Jimenez following a serviceable one from Justin Masterson. Even though it all added up to a 5-4 loss Wednesday in the Bronx, the Indians can expect their top two starters to make their next starts. The Yankees put theirs on the disabled list. Before the game, CC Sabathia went on the DL with a strained groin, and Andy Pettitte broke his fibula in the fifth inning when he was hit by a ball off the bat of Casey Kotchman. Robinson Cano hit a go-ahead homer off Jimenez (7-6) in the sixth after the Indians took the lead in the top of the fifth off the Yankees’ bullpen. “We played better, better baseball today. I really liked the at-bats, especially at the end,� Cleveland manager Acta said. Manny “Ubaldo threw the ball well. He made a few mistakes and they ended up making him pay for it.� Rafael Soriano had an adventuresome ninth inning in which put the first two batters on base and walked in a run with two outs before getting Asdrubal Cabrera to fly out to left for his 17th save. “We weren’t too far away,� Kotchman said. “Obviously the outcomes haven’t been favorable but we’re not too far away. We’re just trying to stay as positive as we can and things change around over 162� games. Pettitte was hit near his left ankle as he brought it around from the rubber while completing his delivery. The ball bounced toward the third base line and the left-hander went to field it, but it looked as if he couldn’t put weight on it and he went down on the grass. He got back on the mound and threw several warm-up pitches before manager Joe Girardi let him stay in. But when he came up limping after throwing his first live pitch, Girardi popped out of the dugout and signaled for a pitching change. “That’s not good to see,� Kotchman said. “You never want to see any player leave the field with that injury.� Right-hander Cody Eppley came on with Kotchman on first and no one out. Lou Marson singled and Aaron Cunningham bunted the runners over before Kotchman was thrown out at the plate on Michael Brantley’s grounder to first base against Clay Rapada. Cabrera hit a tying RBI single and Jason Kipnis followed with a blooper that fell in just beyond the glove of shortstop Jayson Nix to put the Indians ahead 3-2. Jimenez gave the lead back in the sixth when he allowed a leadoff double by Alex Rodriguez before Cano’s drive. Shelley Duncan hit an RBI double in the second for Cleveland.

College football playoff Q & A RALPH D. RUSSO AP College Football Writer A committee of university presidents approved a plan for a four-team college football playoff, starting in 2014. Here’s what you need to know about the new postseason format put together by the commissioners of the 11 major college football conferences and Notre Dame’s athletic director. HOW WILL THE TEAMS BE CHOSEN? A selection committee will pick the four teams, using guidelines such as strength of schedule, head-to-head results and won-loss record, after the regular season. The committee will give preference to conference champions. The makeup of the committee is to be determined, but it will likely be about 20 conference commissioners and college athletic directors.
WHERE WILL THE GAMES BE PLAYED? The two semifinals will rotate among six sites. The current BCS games are the Rose Bowl (Pasadena, Calif.), Sugar Bowl (New Orleans), Fiesta Bowl (Glendale, Ariz.) and Orange Bowl (Miami). The Cotton Bowl, now played at the state-of-the-art Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, has to be considered a front-runner to land one of the other two spots. Candidates for the other one? Try Atlanta and Jacksonville, Fla. The championship game will become college football’s Super Bowl. Any city can bid on it, even ones that host the semifinals and those that have not been traditional bowl sites. Expect most to be played in dome stadiums or warm weather sites. WHEN WILL THE GAMES BE PLAYED? The semifinals will be played on Dec. 31 and/or Jan. 1. College football
used to own New Year’s Day. The Bowl Championship Series got away from that. The leaders of the sport want to reclaim that day. The championship game will always be played on the first Monday that is at least six days after the semifinals. The first “Championship Monday� is Jan. 12, 2015. WILL THIS PUT AN END TO THE CONTROVERSY? No. Doubling the field from two teams to four alleviates some of the problems that the Bowl Championship Series couldn’t solve. There will still be plenty of complaining, but it will come from teams No. 5, 6 and 7, instead of Nos. 3 and 4. That’s better. The farther down you go in the rankings, the weaker the arguments get for inclusion. But there are plenty of people out there now that believe four is not nearly enough. HOW MUCH? Con-
servative estimates have the television right to the new playoff system being worth at least double what the BCS was worth. That means $300 million easy, probably more like $400 or $500. How it gets divided among the conferences is still to be finalized, though criteria has been set up: — On-field success — Teams’ expenses — Marketplace factors — Academic performance of student-athletes In short the five power conferences (SEC, Big Ten, Big 12, ACC and Pac-12) will get more than the others. The Big East no longer will get a big share, but how much smaller will it be? HOW SOON AND FOR HOW LONG? The four-team playoff will start in the 2014 season because the current TV have already deals locked the Bowl Championship Series in for two
more years. The next round of TV deals will be for 12 years. Those negotiations will begin in the fall. The 12-year deal accomplishes two goals for the commissioners: 1) They don’t want to deal with this every four years the way they have been. 2) It keeps the playoff from expanding for 12 years. WILL IT GROW EVENTUALLY? No doubt. It will be successful, so why not have more of a good thing. Also, many if not all of the people who put this thing together will have moved on when it’s time to come up with another plan. College football is moving away from the current bowl system, in which it farms out its postseason to third parties. As a new structure evolves and conferences continue to realign, there is no reason to think the playoff will continue to have only four teams.

HOROSCOPE Thursday, June 28, 2012 In the year ahead, you are likely to become involved with two different but distinct groups of friends. You’ll enjoy sharing one group’s worldly interests, while you’re more likely to enjoy spending time with the other socially. Each will have its benefits. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Conditions in general look extremely favorable for you, with one exception: the management of your resources. If you’re cautious in this area, everything will be fine. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Domestic issues should be given priority over all other mundane activities. Once you’ve met these obligations, go ahead and spend your time however you’d like. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — In matters where you allow your emotions to govern your behavior, you aren’t apt to like the results. Conversely, in situations where you logically think things through, all should go well. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — If there’s something special that you want and have been hoping to find at a good price, do your shopping early. You’ll have better luck before everything gets picked over. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Situations that you think through thoroughly and can personally control should work out rather well, as long as you haven’t overlooked anything. Be sure to check the small details. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — You can be a compassionate person who is ready to be helpful whenever possible. If you get a chance to exercise these fine qualities, keep your good deeds to yourself. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Assess all developments logically, but also give credence to your intuitive insights. These innate perceptions could fill in the blank spots that your practical side misses. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — If you’re involved with people who share your work world, it’s OK to talk shop. However, it you try to do so with anybody else, you’re likely to elicit a big fat yawn. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Activities that offer elements of friendly competition might be extremely appealing to you. The important thing is to engage in such with pals who enjoy the game for its own sake. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — If you find yourself in either a mentally or physically competitive situation, don’t despair. You have a hefty reserve to draw upon that your opponent lacks. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — When negotiating an important contract, hold firm to your terms and don’t jump at the first offer if it isn’t to your liking. You’ll get what you want if you don’t look desperate. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — New knowledge that you’ve had a difficult time assimilating will be utilized to your advantage when, all of a sudden, the lights go on in your noggin. You’ll suddenly have all the right answers. COPYRIGHT 2012 United Feature Syndicate, Inc.
