Health care questions put on hold

BY JOSH LEDERMAN Associated Press WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (AP) — Millions of uninsured people may have to wait until after Election Day to find out if and how they can get coverage through President Barack Obama’s health care law.

More than two weeks after the Supreme Court gave the

green light to Obama’s signature legislative achievement, many governors from both parties said they haven’t decided how their states will proceed on two parts under their control: an expansion of Medicaid, expected to extend coverage to roughly 15 million low-income people, and new insurance exchanges, projected to help an additional 15

million or so purchase private insurance.

In some states, such as ColOklahoma and orado, Wyoming, governors said they’re crunching the numbers to determine what’s best for their residents. But in other states, including Virginia, Nebraska and Wisconsin, Republican governors said not to expect a decision

before Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney square off in November.

If Romney wins, the argument goes, he’ll work to throw out the health care overhaul, and the issue will be moot.

Food, frolicking and fun highlight Houston festival

BY JENNIFER BUMGARNER jbumgarner@sdnccg.com HOUSTON — Rain stayed away for the second annual Houston Community Classic Festival over the weekend bringing an estimated crowd of 3,000 people to the two-day festival, according to organizers.

The festival opened on Friday with the Adam Kemp Memorial Car Show. This year there were 77 participants in the car show. The winner of the Adam’s Daughter Choice Award was Bob Council, of Sidney, and his 1954 Chevy pickup truck with trailer.

This year the festival held its first co-ed volleyball tournament. The winning team was Kelli Boyer, Jessica Dexter, Maria and Jason Vanskyock, Cara Alexander, Kristen Everett and Sally Keener.

The Houston Congregational Christian Church held a pork tenderloin dinner on Friday night and the Houston Community Association also sold dinners. According to cochair Dian Carey thought both groups had a good turnout for the dinners.

“The tenderloin dinners

were well received,” said Carey. “The community association sold 400 prime rib sandwiches that night. On both Friday and Saturday, the crowd really grew around dinner.”

On Saturday, a few groups benefited from the festival.

Following the fourth annual Houston 5K Classic, breakfast was served by the Houston FFA at the school. The community association sold hamburgers, hot dogs and brats for lunch and Houston Fire Department sold 300 chicken dinners.

The festival committee sponsored activities for the kids on both days,including jumpys and putter golf. On Saturday, the Houston Rescue hosted more kids activities.

“The jumpys were full all weekend and we sold 200 rounds of golf,” said Carey.

“Kids also had a lot of fun with the other activities and cotton candy was one of the kid favorites.”

Three big attractions on Saturday were the dodgeball tournament, poker run and SDN Photo/Luke Gronneberg the kiddie tractor pulls.

Clean Sweep 2012 Since keeping track of such things, the Clean Sweep of the Great Miami River has taken out more than 4,500 tires and nearly 330 tons of trash with the help of nearly 4,500 volunteers. Some of the strange items found include hot tubs, carpeting, shopping carts, play sets, beds, ovens, canoes, motorcycles, bowling balls, safes, television sets, puppets, and even a very valuable Native American relic. Some of the items did get their on their own due to getting caught up in high water that came after big storms. But other items, unfortunately, got there because someone dumped the items there. It may be hard to understand why someone would do such a thing, expecially when there are places where a person can take their refuse and trash. Instead they choose to litter and make things around them subject to the pollution.

Depending on what the litter is, it could pollute the water, hurting the animals and fish that live near or in the water or damage the riverbed or streambank making erosion even worse. Whatever the case, it always upsets the beauty of the river and makes things more unpleasant for all of us.

ALWAYS THINK SAFETY When you’re in a boat, canoe or kayak: • Always wear a PFD (personal flotation device) also known as a life jacket • Tell someone where you’re going • Wear clothing that isn’t binding and dries quickly • Wear sunscreen and a hat is recommended • Watch for strainers or debris that has been caught up in a shallow or narrow areas of the river

For more tips on safety go to http://ohiodnr.com/Watercraft.

At all times, avoid low dams. www.miamiconservancy.org/recreation/boating.

There are more than 60 low dams on the rivers and streams in the Great Miami River Watershed. The low dams create a pool of water upstream of the dam for recreation including boating and fishing.

Low dams can be deceptively calm and incredibly dangerous. Low dams may range from a 25-foot drop-off to a mere 6-inch drop-off. Water flowing over the dam form currents that can trap objects as well as boaters.

Low dam safety tips: • Know the location of all low dams and waterfalls on the river you plan to boat.

• Never attempt to boat over a dam or waterfall.

• Carry your boat around the low dam and launch at a safe distance, well downstream of the backwash of the low dam, which can pull you back into the dam.

• Watch for a smooth line connecting the banks. This may be the top of a low dam.

• Listen for splashing sounds of turbulence and the dangerous currents of dams.

• Scout the river and know the location of all river hazards

Page sponsored by: The Miami Soil and Water Conservation District

– not just low dams.

• Boat with experienced, responsible boaters and learn from them.

• Look for concrete retaining walls, which some dams have at each ban, making the dams easier to spot.

• Unless you are trained in low-dam rescues, never enter the water in an attempt to rescue someone trapped by the low dam. Immediately call for help; then, throw a line from shore to the trapped person.

When you’re not on the water but walking or riding your bike, pick up trash that you’re able to safely. For example, don’t pick up anything with sharp edges unless you have gloves. Try to use waste receptacles when you can and encourage friends and family to do the same.

Secure garbage that you place outside so it doesn’t work itself free and become part of the litter you see.

Butler and Hamilton counties held their Clean Sweep on May 5, pulling 13.88 tons of trash out of the Great Miami River.

Logan County will hold their Clean Sweep on July 28. All other sections will hold theirs either on July 20 or 21. Occurring on different dates, but indentifying itself as a collective event, it’s the Clean Sweep of the Great Miami River!

However, this event is so popular that many sections have closed their canoe availability but walkers are usually needed throughout. Check out the website at: www.cleansweepofthegreatmiamiriver.org to learn what section is closest to you. To learn availability and what might be right for you within the Miami County, call Linda at Miami Soil and Water Conservation District 335-7666, ext. 230.

Major sponsors of this event include Cargill, Atlantis Sportswear, Miami Conservation District, Newspapers in Education, Ohio Community Media, Scott Family McDonalds, CareSource, Cox Media Group Ohio, Dayton Daily News, Rivers Unlimited and American Rivers, plus countless local sponsors.

Your safety is our number one concern. This can be a strenuous day and we have to trust that volunteers realize their own capabilities. Also, we require all volunteers to dress properly for the weather and to wear appropriate shoes that cover toes and have a thick sole. Old running shoes are ideal. If the section leader feels that your attire is not suitable, they may ask that you canoe another time. A safety talk created by ODNRDivision of Watercraft on Boating Safety will be part of the morning preparation period.

The Ghost in the Courthouse Statue Written by Bill Bailey Illustrated by Michelle Duckworth Chapter 16 Town abuzz about Donnie’s ‘powers’ STORY SO FAR: The sheriff's posse sneaks into the newspaper office, planning to kill Jake, Holly, and Donnie. But Donnie has prepared a series of scary surprises for them. Donnie makes them think that Mr. Elder, the editor they poisoned, has come back to life as a skeleton. When the posse flees from the building, they are confronted by the Jefferson City Police. Sheriff Matlock convinces Chief Charlie Banks that he and his posse were in the building to catch some thieves.

Just when I was thinking there was no way Police Chief Banks would believe my word against a sheriff, a deputy, and a judge, Felix had given me some encouragement. I had been practicing for this moment, he had said. Now, it was time for me to take action.

Looking down from the roof of the newspaper building, I paused to get up my nerve. Then, I pulled Mom's audio recorder out of my pocket and yelled, "Chief Banks, I've got it all on this!"

Everyone stared up at me. I held the recorder up, right in front of my face. The next thing they knew, the voice of the sheriff was coming down through the air to them.

"A tough old bird, are ya? Too tough for our poison, huh? Then how 'bout eatin' some of our bullets!" Even though the sound wasn't loud, they all knew what they had just heard.

Judge Lulu panicked. "He recorded us!" she blurted. "But I didn't have anything to do with this, Chief. It was all the sheriff and Clint's idea to poison Mr. Elder."

"You stupid idiot!" Clint hissed. "Shut up!" Realizing Chief Banks was watching him closely, Clint caught himself and smiled sheepishly. "This is just a misunderstanding, Chief," he said.

"Don't act so innocent," Sheriff Matlock said, turning on Clint. "You and the Judge killed George, and you know it. I been watchin' you like a hawk, son – pretending to go along with your killing ways, so's I could get the goods on the both of ya."

"You liar!" yelled Clint. "It was all your idea to begin with. And don't call me 'son' – you crooked old coot!"

The posse erupted into a frenzy of namecalling and shoving before the police pulled them apart and handcuffed all three of them.

"Hey guys," I yelled from the roof, getting their attention. "By the way, that wasn't a recording you just heard. It was me, throwing my voice. I'm pretty good at voices, don't you think?" In my deepest sheriff's voice, I added, "I been watchin' you like a hawk, son."

I could see the sheriff backlit by the headlights, wide-eyed, stunned. "What?!" he said, apparently not believing his ears.

"I didn't record you, Sheriff," I explained. "Too bad you all just ratted each other out."

"You tryin' to make a fool out of me, boy?" the sheriff asked, glaring hard up at me.

"No sir," I said. "You just beat me to it."

I'll never forget the shellshocked look on his face, like he couldn't believe he'd been tricked by a kid.

Once Chief Banks investigated deeper, the posse's accusations and finger-pointing led to more evidence against them.

Eventually, they were tried in court.

The jury found them guilty of Mr. Elder's murder, as well as attempted murder,

breaking and entering, and trespassing on private property. Considering the rough treatment Ol' Bag a' Bones had gotten, I thought it was too bad there weren't any laws against shooting skeletons in the back. Still, the posse was headed to prison for a long, long time.

Standing at the statue the day after the posse's arrest, Jake, Mom, Humpty, and I basked in the glow of our success. Thanks to Mom and Jake's article in The Times – and the TV news crews – I was enjoying my 15 minutes of fame.

The kids who had taunted me just a few days ago came by to chat. And they had girls with them – including my favorite one, Lolly.

"Hi, Donnie!" Monty McGarrity and Shannon Pilant yelled. "What's up, Donnie?" added Rodger Patton.

It was hard to believe that these guys were acting so buddy-buddy. Only a week ago, they had treated me like I had a contagious disease. But Jake had written a story about the "haunted" office and my "powers." And suddenly, I was popular.

Lolly flashed me a smile. "Wanna join us, Donnie? We're going to The Dip to get some ice cream." I could hardly believe it, but she seemed to be flirting with me.

"No thanks," I said.

Then Humpty quickly added, "He may not want anything, toots. But I could sure use a butterscotch milkshake."

They all laughed.

"Who's paying – you or Humpty?" Lolly asked.

Humpty pointed at Jake. "The guy with the big bucks," he said.

"Okay, I'll pay for the shakes," Jake said. "On one condition – that Holly lets Donnie come back to work for me at The Jefferson Times."

"You have to, Miss

NIE Coordinator: Dana Wolfe / Graphic Designer: Scarlett E. Smith

Hutch," said Monty.

"Donnie's the town hero now."

Mom thought about it a second, then turned to Jake.

"Okay. But I have one condition, too. You can't use my son for any more dangerous stunts."

"You drive a hard bargain," Jake sighed. "But it's worth it, Holly. After all, we make a pretty good team."

"A good team?" Mom asked. "You and me?"

"Mom, chill," I interrupted. "He's trying to be nice."

Jake reached out and held Mom's hand.

Amazingly, she didn't jerk it away. "Holly, I know we started off on the wrong foot, but I'd like to know you better. Do you think I have a chance?"

Mom hesitated, then said. "Well... maybe a ghost of a chance."

Jake smiled.

"Speaking of ghosts, is Felix on the team, too?" asked Humpty.

Jake laughed. "Sure – why not?" he said, patting Felix's statue.

"Please to remove ze dirty hands," said a voice. "Show ze proper respect, Monsieur."

Jake jumped. Then a smile crept across his face. "Nice try, Donnie."

"He's onto you now, Donnie," said Humpty. "You can't fool him any more." The puppet winked at Felix's statue.

At that moment, a sound that hadn't been heard in 130 years swept across the courthouse lawn and out over the town of Jefferson. The bells in the courthouse tower were ringing. We all turned to look at the tower. The clocks on all four sides of the tower had started ticking again, right on time. It was 5 o'clock – the time of Felix's death in 1879. Everybody who was gathered around me took off running toward the tower to get a closer look. Mom and Jake were laughing and holding hands like a couple of teenagers.

I was about to follow them, when I felt someone watching me. I turned to the statue.

Felix's eyes were twinkling right at me. The statue's arm swept down across his waist, and he gave a stiff bow.

"Ze clock, ze bells," Felix said. "Eet ees a salute from me to you, Donnie. You used ze noodle, and you dug deep inside for ze courage," he said, tapping his head and patting his stomach." I am proud of you."

Locking eyes with him, I knew this could be our last talk. I said, "Felix, you taught me a lot. You've been a great friend."

I bowed back at him in salute and said, "Merci."

Then Felix slowly returned to his cold, nose-in-the-air, statue pose... and I realized that my ghostly adventure was coming to an end.

Or was it? As I turned to leave, I gave him one last glance. And that's when I saw it. The thin trace of a rascally smile. Then, he winked and said one last thing.

"Theese, mon ami, ees only ze beginning."

Team searches for Storm damage closes courthouse WWII pilot’s remains BELLEFONTAINE (AP) — A windstorm that twisted a 150-foot bell tower has forced abandonment of a western Ohio courthouse on the National Register of Historic Places.

Structural engineers say the June 29 storm moved the wood-and-steel tower several inches off its base atop the Logan County Courthouse in Bellefontaine, making the 142-yearold building unsafe.

The Columbus Dispatch reports that court employees are working out of back rooms and hallways around the city about 60 miles west of Columbus.

Officials hope the tower can be taken down, rebuilt and put back. But they say it’s too soon to estimate the cost or how long it would take.

County commissioners are trying to find a temporary location where at least some courthouse operations can be consolidated again while they determine what to do. ___ Information from: The Columbus Dispatch, http://www.dispatch.com

Autopsy ID needed Police kill MANTEO, N.C. (AP) — The sheriff heading the investigation into a body found on North Carolina’s Outer Banks says detectives need help from medical examiners to determine if the corpse is that of a missing Ohio woman.

Dare County Sheriff Doug Doughtie said Sunday an autopsy could be done as early as Monday, a step he says is needed to identify the body found about 20 to 30 miles from where 33-year-old

Lynn Jackenheimer, of Ashland, Ohio, disappeared.

Sheriff ’s investigators were unable to tell if the body is a woman or a man.

Jackenheimer was reported missing when she didn’t come home from a vacation on the Outer Banks with her two children and her onand-off boyfriend, Nate Summerfield.

Police say Summerfield dropped the children off in Ashland and drove away.

gunman COLUMBUS (AP) — Police say officers have killed a man who pointed a gun at them in Ohio’s capital city.

Columbus police say a bar employee stopped officers early Sunday in front of the Franklinton business and pointed out a man with a gun. The officers confronted the man, and they say he then pulled out a handgun and pointed it at them.

FREMONT (AP) — U.S. and Canadian agencies have teamed up to search for the remains of a northwest Ohio pilot who was killed 70 years ago with four others when their plane capsized in the Gulf of St. Lawrence near a remote Canadian village.

Joint Prisoners of War/Missing in Action Accounting Command , a federal agency that works to recover members of the military who are missing in action, began an operation Thursday with Parks Canada to search the amphibious plane’s wreckage, The News-Messenger in Fremont reported.

The agencies are searching for the bodies of Fremont native Jack Zimmerman and four others aboard the craft, said Marc-Andre Bernier, chief of Parks Canada’s Underwater Archaeological Service.

Zimmerman, a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Army Air Corps, also was a pioneer in the commercial aviation industry. He flew the first scheduled flight into LaGuardia Airport the day it opened in New York City, earned the nickname “Million Miler” and flew military missions in Northern Europe during World War II, according to Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Center records.

Zimmerman had flown military officials to a U.S. military base at the village of Longue-Pointe-deMingan in Quebec so they

The Allies needed the airport as part of a route used to send troops, supplies and aircraft to Northern Europe, Bernier said. Snow was falling when the two-engine Catalina developed a leak after two failed takeoffs and sank into the gulf.

Divers and others from the agencies plan to spend a month diving on the plane’s wreckage and hope to recover bodies and any personal items that might have belonged to Zimmerman and the crew, Bernier said.

Any remains that are found would be identified and returned to the families at some point, along with any personal items,

said U.S. Army Capt. Russell Grigsby of JPAC. The village had about 200 residents then, and about 10 village residents who saw the plane crash are still alive.

“They remember the accident very clearly,” Bernier said. “To see the Americans come to recover their own is quite touching.”

The plane, which is lying on its wing and partially buried in sand, is not expected to be moved.

Parks Canada discovered the plane’s wreckage in 2009 while in the area looking for shipwrecks. ___ Information from: The N e w s - M e s s e n g e r, http://www.thenewsmessenger.com

OUT OF THE BLUE ‘Man of Steel’ flies into Comic-Con SAN DIEGO (AP) — There are lots of people dressed like Superman at Comic-Con, but the real guy — or at least the actor playing him in the latest Superman film — made a surprise appearance at the fan festival.

“Man of Steel” director Zack Snyder presented new footage from the film on Saturday and introduced star Henry Cavill to an audience of more than 6,000 fans.

The British actor said “it’s a dream come true” to play the iconic superhero, but confessed “it is pretty intense.”

The footage showed Clark Kent as a boy and Cavill in his super suit, along with glimpses of costars Amy Adams and Russell Crowe.

Snyder said the film will make Superman more relatable than previous depictions that showed him as “a big blue Boy Scout up on the throne and you can’t really touch him.”

‘Oklahoma!’ star dies NEW YORK (AP) — Celeste Holm, a versatile, bright-eyed blonde who soared to Broadway fame in “Oklahoma!” and won an Oscar in “Gentleman’s Agreement” but whose last years were filled with financial difficulty and estrangement from her sons, died Sunday, a relative said. She was 95.

Holm had been hospitalized about two weeks ago with dehydration. She asked her husband on Friday to bring her home and spent her final days with her husband, Frank Basile, and other relatives and close friends by her side, said Amy Phillips, a great-niece of Holm’s.

Holm died around 3:30 a.m. at her longtime apartment on Central Park West, located in the same building where Robert De Niro lives and where a fire broke out last month, Phillips said.

“I think she wanted to be here, in her home, among her things, with people who loved her,” she said.

In a career that spanned more than half a century, Holm played everyone from Ado Annie — the girl who just can’t say no in “Oklahoma!”— to a worldly theatrical agent in the 1991 comedy “I Hate Hamlet” to guest star turns on TV shows such as “Fantasy Island” and “Love Boat II” to Bette Davis’ best friend in “All About Eve.”

IN THIS March 12, 1997, file photo, actress Celeste Holm poses at a friends' home in Santa Monica, Calif. Celeste Holm, a versatile, bright-eyed blonde who soared to Broadway fame in “Oklahoma!” and won an Oscar in “Gentlemen’s Agreement” but whose last years were filled with financial difficulty and estrangement from her sons, died Sunday a relative said.

She was 95.

She won the Academy Award in 1947 for best supporting actress for her performance in “Gentleman’s Agreement” and received Oscar nominations for “Come to the Stable” (1949) and “All About Eve” (1950).

Holm was also known for her untiring charity work — at one time she served on nine boards — and was a

board member emeritus of the National Mental Health Association.

She was once president of the Creative Arts Rehabilitation Center, which treats emotionally disturbed people using arts therapies. Over the years, she raised $20,000 for UNICEF by charging 50 cents apiece for autographs.

President Ronald Reagan

appointed her to a six-year term on the National Council on the Arts in 1982. In New York, she was active in the Save the Theatres Committee and was once arrested during a vigorous protest against the demolition of several theaters.

But late in her life she was in a bitter, multi-year family legal battle that pitted her two sons against her and her fifth husband — former waiter Basile, whom she married in 2004 and was more than 45 years her junior. The court fight over investments and inheritance wiped away much of her savings and left her dependent on Social Security. The actress and her sons no longer spoke, and she was sued for overdue maintenance and legal fees on her Manhattan apartment.

The future Broadway star was born in New York on April 29, 1917, the daughter of Norwegian-born Theodore Holm, who worked for the American branch of Lloyd’s of London, and Jean Parke Holm, a painter and writer.

She was smitten by the theater as a 3-year-old when her grandmother took her to see ballerina Anna Pavlova.

“There she was, being tossed in midair, caught, no mistakes, no falls. She never knew what an impression she made,” Holm recalled years later.

Stallone’s son dies; cause unknown LOS ANGELES (AP) — There were no signs of foul play or trauma in the death of Sage Stallone, whose sudden passing at the age of 36 left his father Sylvester Stallone devastated, a publicist and investigators said.

Sage Stallone was found unresponsive in his Los Angeles home Friday by an employee and a relative, and police arrived and confirmed Sage Stallone was dead, Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter said.

“Sylvester Stallone is devastated and grief-stricken over the sudden loss of his son,” publicist Michelle Bega said in a statement. “His compassion and thoughts are with Sage’s mother, Sasha.”

The cause of death was not clear.

No suicide note was found, Winter said, though prescription bottles were recovered from the home on Mulholland Drive in the Studio City area.

Winter could not say what kind of medication bottles or how many, and whether they had a role in the death.

Winter said an autopsy will be performed in the next few days and investigators will look into Stallone’s medical history, but a cause of

death was likely to take several weeks while toxicology tests are performed.

George Braunstein, an attorney who has represented Sage Stallone for 15 years, said friends and acquaintances had become concerned because they hadn’t heard from Stallone in the past day, Braunstein said. He said the employee who found the body was a housekeeper.

Sylvester Stallone appeared Thursday at ComicCon, the San Diego pop culture festival, to promote his upcoming film “Expendables 2” with friend and costar Arnold Schwarzenegger.

It was not clear whether he had remained at the convention or had returned to Los Angeles Friday.

Sage Moonblood Stallone was the oldest of Sylvester Stallone’s children and costarred with his father in two films. He was the first of two sons Stallone had with first wife Sasha Czack.

“Sage was a very talented and wonderful young man, his loss will be felt forever,” Bega said.

Sage Stallone made his acting debut in 1990’s “Rocky V” and also appeared with his father in 1996’s “Daylight.”

‘Driving Miss Daisy’ producer dead at 77 LOS ANGELES (AP) — Film producer Richard Zanuck, who won the best picture Oscar for “Driving Miss Daisy” and was involved in such blockbuster films as “Jaws” and “The Sting” after his father, Hollywood mogul Darryl F. Zanuck, fired him from 20th Century Fox, died Friday. He was 77.

Zanuck’s publicist says he died of a heart attack at his Beverly Hills home.

Zanuck’s run of successes as an independent producer rivaled the achievements of his legendary father who reigned over 20th Century Fox from the 1930s until age and changing audience tastes brought him down.

The production company the younger Zanuck founded with David Brown produced “The Sting” in 1973, as well as Steven Spielberg’s first fea-

ture film, “The Sugarland Express,” in 1974 and Spielberg’s first blockbuster, “Jaws,” in 1975. “The Sting” also won the best movie Oscar, although Zanuck and Brown were not listed as its producers. “Jaws” was nominated for best picture, as was the Zanuck-produced “The Verdict.”

“In 1974, Dick Zanuck and I sat in a boat off Martha’s Vineyard and watched the mechanical shark sink to the bottom of the sea,” Spielberg recalled in a statement Friday. “Dick turned to me and smiled. ‘Gee, I sure hope that’s not a sign.’ That moment forged a bond between us that lasted nearly 40 years. He taught me everything I know about producing. He was one of the most honorable and loyal men of our profession and he fought tooth and nail for his directors.”

U.S. SECRETARY of State Hillary Clinton (rear centre) stands at attention during a flag-raising ceremony at the U.S. Consulate General in the Mediterranean city of Alexandria, Egypt, Sunday. Clinton is in Egypt to meet with the nation’s newly elected president and other government and civil leaders and to to speak about the relationship between the United States and the new democracy.

Clinton’s calls fall flat in Eygpt CAIRO (AP) — The head of Egypt’s military took a tough line Sunday on the Muslim Brotherhood, warning that he won’t let the fundamentalist group dominate the country, only hours after U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton urged him to work with Egypt’s elected Islamist leaders.

Clinton’s visit to Egypt underscored the difficulty Washington faces in trying to wield its influence amid the country’s stormy post-Hosni Mubarak power struggles.

Islamist Mohammed Morsi, a longtime Brotherhood figure, was sworn two weeks ago as Egypt’s first democratically elected president. Led by Field Marshal Hussein

Tantawi, the military handed over power to him June 30 after ruling Egypt for 16 months. The military, however, dissolved the Brotherhood-led parliament and stripped Morsi of significant authorities in the days before his inauguration, while retaining overwhelming powers for itself, including legislative power and control of the writing of a new constitution.

The United States is in a difficult spot when it comes to dealing with post-Mubarak Egypt — eager to be seen as a champion of democracy and human rights after three decades of close ties with the ousted leader despite his abysmal record in advancing either.

Red Cross: Syrian conflict is civil war DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — Syria’s 16-month bloodbath crossed an important symbolic threshold Sunday as the international Red Cross formally declared the conflict a civil war, a status with implications for potential war crimes prosecutions.

The Red Cross statement came as United Nations observers gathered new details on what happened in a village where dozens were reported killed in a regime assault. After a second visit to Tremseh on Sunday, the team said Syrian troops went door-to-door in the small farming community, checking residents’ IDs and then killing some and taking others away.

According to the U.N., the attack appeared to target army defectors and activists.

“Pools of blood and brain matter were observed in a number of homes,” a U.N. statement said.

Syria denied U.N. claims that government forces had used heavy weapons such as tanks, artillery and helicopters during the attack Thursday.

Cattlemen plan many upcoming events The Shelby County Cattlemen’s Association (SCCA) has a busy schedule of events planned for summer and fall this year.

First on the calendar will be the SCCA Beef Cookout at the Shelby County Fair. Cookout dates are July 24 and 27.

The cookout will be held behind the Kent Feeds Show Arena.

This year’s Beef Cookout menu will feature ribeye sandwiches and all-beef hotdogs grilled over an open flame, as well as chips and pop. A sandwich value meal will also be offered. Stop by for a sandwich during the cattle shows and sales during the 2012 fair.

Proceeds from the Beef Cookout benefit various youth and adult programs throughout Shelby County, including Conservation Day Camp and the Quality Assurance Programs for 4-H and FFA members. Also, each year the SCCA sponsors the Shelby County Beef Ambassador, who represents our county at the state level.

This year’s ambassador is Sierra Heaton, of Russia.

SHELBY COUNTY Cattlemen’s Association members grill ribeye steaks at the 2011 Shelby County Fair. The group also will have a Beef Cookout at this year’s fair.

In addition to the Beef Cookout, the SCCA will also sponsor the “Born in Shelby County” steer and heifer show at the 2012 fair to support the youth who have purchased calves from SCCA members. The show will take place Sunday at 3:30 p.m. This year features a few exciting updates, in-

cluding a feeder calf class.

The Ohio Cattlemen’s Association (OCA) will hold its annual Young Cattlemen’s Conference & Tour Aug. 9-11. This conference and tour offers emerging Ohio beef industry leaders and young producers the opportunity to build leader-

ship skills as they network with beef industry leaders, government officials, businesses, and media.

The following weekend, the OCA Roundup will be taking place in the Wooster area. This year’s event will feature a Friday night social at Certified Angus Beef, ed-

ucational seminars Saturday morning at OARDC, and area tours Saturday afternoon.

For more information on either event, visit the OCA website at www.ohiocattle.org.

Looking ahead, the SCCA will hold its annual Fall Roundup on Sept. 4 at the Bensman Farm, 2219 TawawaMaplewood Road. A facility tour will begin at 6 p.m., and dinner will be served at 7 p.m.

The roundup is an opportunity for area cattlemen and women to gather for an exceptional meal featuring the Cattlemen’s ribeye sandwiches with all the fixings. Also included in the program are tours of the Bensman cattle facility and a program of knowledgeable special guests speaking on current topics in the cattle industry. Everyone is invited, and there is no charge to attend.

Beyond the SCCA, the Ohio Cattle Farmers have been striking out hunger during the 2012 baseball season. The Ohio Beef Council is in full swing with a partnership teaming Ohio’s

Beef Checkoff with the Columbus Clippers, Kroger and the Mid Ohio Foodbank in an effort to strike out hunger during the 2012 baseball season.

During this year’s Clippers baseball season, the Ohio Beef Council is proud to announce that with each strikeout recorded by the Clippers’ pitching staff, 2 pounds of lean ground beef will be donated to the Mid Ohio Foodbank.

Just 1 pound of lean ground beef can provide a family of four with a meal packed full of 10 essential vitamins and nutrients while accounting for just 150 calories, which is the ultimate bang for your calorie buck. The Ohio Beef Council needs your help in striking out hunger this season.

Visit ww w.o hi o be e f p r o m o tions.com to learn how you can donate your pound of lean ground beef. Let’s show hungry Ohioans that we are all on the same team when it comes to striking out hunger in 2012.

Sidney Daily News, Monday, July 16, 2012

HEALTH exchanges that four months from now I may not need,” Gov. Bob McDonnell, R-Va., said on the sidelines of the National Governors Association meeting.

Although the high court upheld the requirement that individuals either have insurance or pay a fine, the justices undercut Obama’s plan to get almost all Americans insured, ruling that states can opt out of the expansion of Medicaid, the government-run insurance plan. People earning up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level qualify for Medicaid under the health care law, except in states that reject the expansion.

The Obama administration said last week that people won’t be fined for not having insurance in states that turn down the expansion, meaning Obama’s hard-fought overhaul could fall far short of the 30 million or more uninsured he had hoped would get coverage.

Also left to the governors is what to do about the exchanges — Internet-based markets designed to offer one-stop shopping for insurance — that are also part of law. States are supposed to set up their own exchanges, but if they don’t, the federal government will run them instead.

About a half-dozen states have announced plans to forgo the Medicaid expansion and relinquish the massive infusion of federal dollars that would come along with it. All have Republican governors, many of whom argued Medicaid is an underfunded entitlement already weighing down their cash-strapped budgets.

Others faulted the

YOUR

From Page 1 Obama administration for failing to provide the specifics that states need to make an informed decision. That sentiment was echoed in a list of 30 questions about the law that the Republican Governors Association sent Obama last week.

The law picks up the entire cost of covering more people for the first three years, and then drops to 90 percent, with states covering the remaining 10 percent.

It’s a great deal, proponents argue, especially compared to the current Medicaid rates, wherein Washington pays as little as half of the cost in some states.

But a handful of GOP governors attending the NGA meeting said they suspected a bait-andswitch in which states would agree to the expansion only to see Congress cut some or all of the funds, leaving governors on the hook and potentially bankrupting state budgets.

“At any whim they could just pull the money,” Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer told The Associated Press. “So yeah, I’m a little gunshy.”

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who survived a recall election in June, said in an interview that governors were grumbling among themselves about the federal government’s track record on special education. Congress in 1975 pledged to fund 40 percent of the cost of special education, but routinely has fallen far short of that commitment.

The politics are tricky for governors weighing how to proceed. Just one-third of Americans supported the health care overhaul in Associated Press-GfK poll conducted in mid-June. But

because federal tax dollars are covering the Medicaid expansion, states that opt out are essentially consigning their residents to subsidize coverage for those in other states.

Also, Alabama, Pennsylvania, Utah and other states that are still weighing their options were among those that sued the federal government in an attempt to have the law overturned. If they were so opposed then, the law’s supporters ask, why are they leaving the door open to implementing it now?

Both the Medicaid expansion and the exchanges don’t kick in until 2014, meaning states technically have some breathing room before they need to make a final decision.

But governors who’ve agreed to take the expansion accused their taciturn colmore leagues of playing election-year politics at the expense of taxpayers.

“It’s not only irresponsible, it’s disingenuous,” Vermont Gov. Peter Shumlin said at a news conference organized by Democratic governors. “To say ‘I’m going to criticize the plan, but I won’t tell you whether I’m taking the loot until after the election,’ that’s what breeds cynicism in the American people.”

Shumlin didn’t back down even when reminded that some Democrats too are taking the wait-and-see approach, including Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper.

“I believe my comments should apply to every governor in the nation, on a bipartisan basis,” Shumlin said.

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCIS DRAKE What kind of day will tomorrow be?

To find out what the stars say, read the forecast given for your birth sign.

For Wednesday, July 18, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You will do everything you can today to liberate yourself from an oppressive situation with someone. You will demand your freedom. (Be very careful.)

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your work routine likely will be interrupted by computer crashes, canceled meetings and equipment breakdowns. In addition, you want credit for what you do, and others might disagree. (Yikes.)

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Parents need to be extra vigilant today because this is an accidentprone day for your children. It’s also an accident-prone day if you work with children. Be careful!

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Guard against household accidents today. Small appliances might break down. Technology and computers will be unreliable. Something definitely will interrupt your home routine.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) This is an accident-prone day for your sign, so slow down and take it easy. Don’t shoot from the hip. Think before you act or say anything.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Keep an eye on your money and your possessions today. You might find money; you might lose money. You might break something or do something that jeopardizes your job. (Oops.)

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Hold your temper and do not strike out rashly against others. People are explosive, and there’s lots of tension

today. You’re not the only one who feels impatient. (Easy does it.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) If you are doing something secretive or behind the scenes, it could backfire or explode in your face, so be careful.

A very strong unpredictable element is present today.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) A friend will surprise you today or alternatively, you could meet a real character. Most likely, you will butt heads with someone in a group over a sudden disagreement. Go carefully.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Don’t get into disagreements with bosses, parents and authority figures today. People are impatient and the situation is explosive. Don’t quit your day job (not today).

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Travel plans will be canceled or changed today. Ditto for meetings and classes in higher education. Expect the unexpected with publishing, the media, medicine and the law.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Conflicts about shared property, inheritances, debt and taxes are likely today. This is a poor day for these kinds of discussion. You won’t resolve anything.

YOU BORN TODAY You are courageous, committed, persevering, confident and not afraid to strive for the impossible. Although you are an independent leader, you can work well with others. You are genuinely concerned about society as a whole. You need to have goals and will always aggressively pursue them to help you to stretch and reach beyond your grasp.

An important choice will arise in the coming year. Choose wisely.

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE For Tuesday, July 17, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Definitely avoid arguments with authority figures, because these easily can erupt today. And if they do, they will escalate into something nasty very quickly.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Be patient with co-workers, especially if you are trying to introduce improvements and reforms where you work.

Others will not be receptive. Tread lightly.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Romantic partners might be at odds with each other today. This is a challenging day for parents when dealing with their children, because temper tantrums and meltdowns are likely. Be patient.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Minor appliances might break down at home today, and similarly, family relationships can break down. Don’t push your agenda with others. Take it easy.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Battles with siblings, neighbors and relatives might take place today, because people are pushy and relentless.

Who needs this? Run away!

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) When it comes to financial matters or discussions about earnings and cash flow, if you are too pushy, you will lose everything. Wait until you see an opening. Or wait until Thursday.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You can use today’s energy to creatively transform the world around you. Or you can have fierce power struggles with others. Which is it going to be? (That’s a no-brainer.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) You might be doing a slow boil because you feel angry, but you also feel that you cannot speak up. This is always frustrating. But you probably are right. Hang in there.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Squabbles with others are likely today, because people are at odds with each other. You might find yourself in confrontation with a member of a group.

Be cool.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Do not clash with authority figures today — this means parents, teachers, bosses, VIPs and the police. People are rigid, intense and unforgiving. You will only increase opposition to you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Avoid controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues today, because discussions could escalate into a fierce argument in a New York minute. Just take it easy.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) This is not a good day to discuss how to share things or address inheritances or divide jointly held property. Postpone this kind of discussion until Thursday.

YOU BORN TODAY You might appear shy, quiet or reticent, but underneath this cover is a huge ambition to succeed. You also have a marvelous sense of humor. Freedom and independence are important to you. Your self-confidence allows you to be very patient in waiting for what you want. In the year ahead, partnerships will be extremely important and will teach you much about your style of relating.

DEAR ABBY: My wife and I have a “friend” who is involved in a charitable organization that provides donated items to people in need via community giveaways.

Over the years we have given various items to this person to use in these giveaways.

However, we have noticed that some of the items we have given her are now showing up in her home, and clothing we donated is being worn by her family members.

Abby, we donated because we believed our things were going to those in need. Are we wrong to be upset that they have been

kept for her family’s use? We are considering no longer giving our donations to her.

She is a wonderful person, and we’re hesitant to confront her with our concerns, but we are left feeling our generosity was abused. How should we handle this? — USED AND ABUSED IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA DEAR USED: Unless this “wonderful person” has been paying the organization for your items, what she is doing could be considered theft or fraud and an abuse of your generosity. To prevent it from happening in the future, deliver the items directly to the organization and not to her.

Whether posting or responding to an advertisement, watch out for offers to pay more than the advertised price for the item. Scammers will send a check and ask the seller to wire the excess through Western Union (possibly for courier fees).

The scammer's check is fake and eventually bounces and the seller loses the wired amount.

While banks and Western Union branches are trained at spotting fake checks, these types of scams are growing increasingly sophisticated and fake checks often aren't caught for weeks.

Funds wired through Western Union or MoneyGram are irretrievable and virtually untraceable.

Kahne wins at New Hampshire

BY HOWARD ULMAN AP Sports Writer LOUDON, N.H. (AP) — Kasey Kahne got his second Sprint Cup win of the season.

Denny Hamlin and his crew chief had trouble communicating.

Kahne took the lead from Hamlin during a restart on the 240th lap of the 300-lap race at the one-mile New Hampshire Motor Speedway on Sunday. The winner was helped by miscommunication between Hamlin, who wanted two tires changed, and crew chief Darian Grubb, who thought he wanted four.

That longer pit stop left Hamlin all the way back in 13th place, but he kept passing cars until only Kahne remained in front. Kahne stayed ahead and won by about 10 car lengths.

It was Kahne’s 14th win of his career and first since May 27 at Charlotte. Clint Bowyer, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Brad Keselowski rounded out the top five.

The win enhances Kahne’s chances of qualifying for the Chase, the last 10 races of the season in which the top 10 drivers in the point standings win automatic berths. Two additional spots go to the drivers with the most wins who are ranked 11th to 20th in points.

Kahne began the day in 16th place, but his two wins are more than anyone in the second group of 10.

“We’ve been pretty tough all year, but we just haven’t finished ‘em off a lot of the times,” Kahne said. “From here on

AP Photo/Autostock, Nigel Kinrade

KASEY KAHNE celebrates with a burnout after winning the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series auto race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, Sunday in Loudon, N.H. out, we need some more top 10s and top fives the rest of the way. It doesn’t get us in the Chase yet, but it does help with a win today.”

The turning point came when the third caution flag came out on the 234th lap for oil dropped on the track by David Reutimann.

Hamlin went into the pit, telling Grubb over the radio that he wanted tires. Grubb, who first planned to change just two, interpreted that to mean four. As Hamlin went back on the track, Grubb told him, “My bad, bud.”

And after the race, Grubb took the blame: “That was 100 percent my fault.”

Hamlin’s Toyota was the best car in the race, which enabled him to pick off one car after another as he recovered from the error.

“It’s such a team sport,” he said. “We just had a slight miscommunication and that one little miscommunication will

magnify it.”

Kyle Busch, the pole-sitter, led the first 66 laps before his own costly pit stop. It took longer than usual as his crew had a problem with the right tire. Then there was more trouble — a drive-through penalty against Busch for entering pit road too fast. When he finally returned to the track, he was all the way back in 22nd place.

His crew chief, Dave Rogers, tried to reassure the sometimes temperamental Busch.

“No emotion right now. No emotion,” he told Busch over the radio. “One hundred percent driving talent. Long way to go. Just chip away, one by one.”

Busch finished 24th.

Busch’s teammate, Hamlin, took over the lead from Busch after that problem.

The first caution of the race came on the 90th lap to clear debris from the track. All the

drivers on the lead lap made pit stops except for Jeff Gordon, who went in front.

But through 100 laps Busch had climbed all the way up to ninth while Hamlin, Gordon, Jimmie Johnson, Kahne and Earnhardt held the top five spots. The last four all drive for Hendrick Motorsports.

Sprint Cup points leader Matt Kenseth finished 13th and has won just once this year — in the season-opening Daytona 500 in February.

Sam Hornish Jr., replacing the suspended AJ Allmendinger, came in 22nd. Allmendinger was suspended about 90 minutes before the race at Daytona International Speedway last weekend after a urine sample taken the previous weekend at Kentucky Speedway came back positive for what his team identified only as a stimulant. His “B” sample is to be tested, probably this week, with his toxicologist present.

TORONTO (AP) — Carlos Villanueva doesn’t have an overpowering fastball or a knee-buckling curve. But when the Blue Jays pitcher needs a strikeout, he knows how to get one.

Villanueva (4-0) fanned a career-best eight in six scoreless innings, Jose Bautista had two hits and Toronto beat the Cleveland Indians 3-0 Sunday afternoon.

The right-hander threw just 55 of his 102 pitches for strikes but was at his best when it counted, ending four of his six innings with strikeouts.

“He doesn’t give in,” Blue Jays manager John Farrell said. “He’s got those three or four pitches that he can go to.

He reads swings very well and he’s extremely intelligent.”

When Villanueva struck out Jack Hannahan for the final out of the second, it was his 500th career K. “I’m glad I came out on top today,” Villanueva said, “and

Making his third start of the season after working in relief for much of the year,

Villanueva allowed just three hits and walked five as the Blue Jays won their first series since taking two of three at Miami from June 22-24.

Cueto’s status unknown

BY JOE KAY AP Sports Writer CINCINNATI (AP) — The Reds aren’t sure whether right-hander Johnny Cueto will be able to start as planned on Tuesday because of a blister on the index finger of his pitching hand.

The first-place Reds aren’t used to worrying about a starter. Cincinnati has used only five different starters, the first time in modern franchise history that it’s gone this deep into the season with its rotation intact.

Cueto was supposed to start on Sunday night against the St. Louis Cardinals, but was pushed back two days after he developed the blister

during a bullpen session. He swapped places with Homer Bailey, who was moved up to Sunday’s game. The current plan is to have Cueto pitch against Arizona on Tuesday.

Manager Dusty Baker was waiting to see how Cueto’s finger responds to treatment before deciding whether to consider other options for next Tuesday’s game.

“We don’t know what the backup plan is yet,” Baker said before Sunday night’s game. “We haven’t even discussed one.”

Cueto is the Reds’ top starter. He leads the staff with 10 wins, and his 2.39 ERA ranks third in the National League.

The right-hander also had

a blister problem during the 2010 season, but managed to keep pitching. The Reds were cautious with him for a couple of games, limiting his pitch count to let the finger heal.

They’re hoping they can do the same thing again — get Cueto through the blister without having to have him miss a start.

“It depends on how quickly his body heals,” Baker said.

“Some guys, it’s like they can grow skin overnight.”

The Reds had won five in a row heading into Sunday’s game, pulling them into a first-place tie with Pittsburgh in the NL Central.

Michael Brantley in the sixth, then ended his outing by striking out Casey Kotchman.

“We just couldn’t do anything against Villanueva,” Indians manager Manny Acta said. “He pitched well.”

Wiggins holds Tour lead FOIX, France (AP) — Crashes, falls, fractures — Bradley Wiggins has seen it all.

Now add tacks and nails to list.

Still, nothing can break his stranglehold on the Tour de France.

On a day of sabotage in the Pyrenees, Wiggins had luck on his side. He avoided the chaos and spent another trouble-free stage as his Sky team controlled his main rivals to protect his yellow jersey.

At least 30 riders were disrupted by tire punctures at the top of the final climb after tacks and small nails were tossed on the road. Tour officials asked police to investigate.

Defending champion Cadel Evans was caught in the havoc.

The Sidney American Legion Post 217 baseball team will be playing in the OSU camp and fourgame tournament beginning today in Columbus.

The tournament continues through Wednesday.

District tournaments begin Friday for the team at Simmons Field in Lima. They play at 7 p.m. Friday and at 10 a.m. Saturday.

During the past five games, Sidney won one game, lost three and tied one game.

The team faced Piqua and it ended in a tie at 6-6 when the game was called due to rain.

The team posted a 63 win when they faced Findlay.

“Rusty Hodgson pitched a great game,” said coach Jason

McLain. “He went eight innings to get the win.

Nick Lauth came in and got the save. Both these guys have pitched some big innings for us this season.

“We were able to start some younger players in this game. Caleb Robert, a freshman, and Dakota Bollinger, an eighthgrader going to be a freshmen, came in and played well for us.”

Dalton Bollinger went 2-3 at the plate, while Mike Rutschilling went 2-4. Ryan Miller was 1-4 but “hit the ball hard four times and should have been 4-4,” said McLain. “Findlay made some great plays on him. His one hit was a big one. It tied the game and gave us some momentum.”

The team fell to Marysville Legion 6-15.

“We brought a lot of subs in the game after the fourth inning,” said McLain. “They played very well. Alex Roberts hit the tar out of the ball and went 3-3. He really stepped up.

“We have a lot of young talent on the team that has been earning more playing time.”

Treg Francis was the pitcher in the first game.

The catchers were Dalton Bollinger and Cole Proffitt.

Sidney lost a doubleheader to Springfield Armory at Wittenberg.

They lost the first game 9-2 and the second game 7-0.

Knicks’ Kidd arrested on DWI charge Jason Kidd mentoring Jeremy Lin was a nice story last week.

Then Kidd was arrested on a drunkendriving charge, Lin’s departure from New York for a “ridiculous contract” in Houston became more realistic, and a position of strength suddenly was one of turbulence for the Knicks.

Kidd’s arrest came within hours of the Knicks agreeing to a trade for fellow point guard Raymond Felton, raising the possibility

they will refuse to match Lin’s offer sheet with the Rockets.

Police said Kidd crashed his SUV into a telephone pole in the Hamptons on Sunday, days after signing with the Knicks.

Treated at a hospital for minor injuries after the crash, Kidd was arraigned on a misdem e a n o r driving-whileintoxicated charge and released without bail, Southampton Town police said.

Phone and email messages were left seeking comment from Kidd’s agent.

The Knicks, who

signed the 10-time AllStar in free agency last week, had no immediate comment. Nor would they comment on their plans for Lin, even as speculation grew that Linsanity was headed elsewhere.

Kidd, 39, was alone in the 2010 Cadillac Escalade when it hit a pole and veered into the woods around 2 a.m. in Water Mill, police said.

Water Mill is a serene, mainly residential community east of Southampton Village.

Kidd’s next court date wasn’t immediate available. The DWI charge carries the potential for up to a year in jail.

The Knicks signed Kidd away from the Dallas Mavericks in a deal that will pay him about $3 million a year.

Kidd had played in New Jersey, leading the Nets to two NBA Finals appearances, before being traded to Dallas and remains fond of the New York City area, where his children continue to live.

The two-time Olympic gold medalist has been in trouble with the law before. While playing with Phoenix in 2001, he was arrested on a domestic violence charge, acknowledging he struck his former wife.

was great,” said Carey.

“Karma’s Pawn brought in a huge crowd for us.”

Money made from the festival stays in the community according to Carey and the festival committee does not profit from holding the festival.

“The committee gives the community a way to come together and thrive,” said Carey. “We give other groups in the community a way to raise money.”

Any money received from the festival by the committee goes into planning for the next festival. The committee is already excited about planning next year’s festival.

“The reward is seeing all of these groups come together and seeing the community come out in support,” said Carey.

“We’ve had such a great turnout of volunteers, community groups and also great support from the community which is just so nice to see.”
