West Milton dog shot by neighbor Canine survives bullet to the neck

BY MELANIE YINGST Staff Writer myingst@tdnpublishing.com

Teen shooting suspect to be tried as adult A 17-year-old will be tried as an adult in the school shooting deaths of three students, a juvenile court judge ruled Thursday after hearing a sheriff’s deputy describe how the teen wore a Tshirt with the word “Killer” and admitted shooting people.

T.J. Lane admitted firing at students sitting at a cafeteria table at Chardon High School east of Cleveland on Feb. 27, killing three and seriously wounding two, authorities say.

WEST MILTON — A West Milton dog owner went out to check on one of their three dogs late Tuesday night and found her canine shot in its neck.

According to the Miami County Sheriff’s Office, William Leffew, of

Emerick Road, West Milton, reported his wife found their dog in the back of their fenced in yard with a bullet hole in its neck.

The dog was treated at an emergency veterinarian’s office where the bullet was cut out of the dog’s chest area. Pictures of the dog have circulated around social media sites such as Facebook.

Leffew believed his neighbor,

WEST MILTON Gary Barga, shot his dog, stating that the neighbors have had an ongoing dispute involving the dogs for a few years.

Barga called the sheriff’s office and reported the dog had attacked him and that’s why he shot it.

Barga said he was awakened by his own dogs barking and grabbed his 9mm Glock handgun and went

outside. He said he saw the two dogs near his own dogs, which were crated. Barga yelled at the dogs to run off and one left. Barga claimed the other dog lunged at him and Barga claimed to have fired a warning shot, but the dog did not move. The dog reportedly lunged at Barga again, and he then shot it. Barga said he saw the dog run to Leffew’s porch and he

School leaders reject Romney’s education plan Mitt Romney struggled to find support for his education proposals while campaigning at an inner-city school Thursday, one day after declaring education the “civil rights issue of our era.”

The visit, the first by the likely Republican presidential nominee to such a school, came as he begins to court a broader cross-section of the electorate he needs to defeat President Barack Obama in November. See Page 6.

where we could win, it was with bars in Ohio,” he said.

Thompson said he expects the fight to move now to the state Legislature, where a bill is already in the works to exempt bars from the ban.

Overwhelmingly approved by voters in 2006, Ohio’s ban prohibits smoking in most indoor public places.

Penalties for proprietors violating the ban range from a warning letter for a first violation to fines of $100 to $2,500 for subsequent violations.

Fines can be doubled for intentional violations.

Justices said there was evidence that the bar tacitly allowed smoking and had plastic cups partially filled with water that were placed around the bar as ash trays. They said the

As participants in the RAD self-defense workshop next week, local women will learn techniques for protecting themselves and fighting back against attackers. The attendees will even get to test their skills during a simulated tussle with police, in which the women are encouraged to strike and kick in retaliation.

“We expect them to fight for their life and show us how they do that,” said Troy Police Department Capt. Joel Misirian, who has organized the “Rape, Aggression, Defense” workshop since 2007. “Our purpose is to give a woman a viable option she may not have thought of before she attended.”

Classes are from 6-9 p.m. May 29, May 31, June 5 and June 7, with skills building in each class.

Participants are strongly encouraged to attend all four days. The workshop’s 20 spots have already been filled, though previous RAD participants may contact Misirian if they wish to attend the third or forth class.

The first session takes place at the Troy Police Department and consists of an introduction to topics including awareness of personal surroundings and basic techniques. Future classes involve hands-on participation and will be hosted at the Robinson Branch of the YMCA, 3060 S. County Road 25-A in Troy.

Women of all ages have attended the workshop in other years.

“It’s a very diverse range. In the past, I’ve had as young as 10 and as old as mid-70s. The neat thing is, it’s based on your own abilities,” said Misirian, who also works with residents on issues including child safety seats, neighborhood watch groups and home and business security surveys.

Piqua and Tipp City officers will be participating in the workshop as well. During the last day of class, women will test all they have learned by fending off feigned attacks by officers, who will wear protective suits with head-totoe, front-to-back protective padding.

Big changes ahead for P.E. Mandates for physical education classes to be in place next year

BY JENNIFER RUNYON For the Troy Daily News editorial@tdnpublishing.com Physical education teachers all over the state are preparing for big changes.

For the first time, beginning next school year, students will have standards that must be met in their physical education classes.

These standards will be included on the district’s report card, but will not affect rating. Standards must be met in academic subject areas, but previously were not required for physical education.

“It’s holding us accountable that we are teaching quality material,” said

COVINGTON Laura Kaiser, physical education teacher at Covington Elementary School.

The state adopted the standards in 2009.

Students are classified by grade bands with each grade band having six standards.

The grade bands are: kindergarten to second grade, third to fifth grade, sixth to eighth grade and ninth to twelfth grade.

Each standard has two benchmarks.

Teachers must implement these assessments by the end of the grade band using provided spread-

sheets and report the data to the Ohio Department of Education. Teachers will give students a rating of 3, advanced; 2, proficient; or 1, limited.

According to Kaiser, Covington is shooting for level 2 from their students.

The ODE will then take an average of the reported data and that will be included on the report cards. Individual results will not be shown on the report card.

Academic assessments must be done during the week set by the state such as with Ohio Achievement Assessments and Ohio Graduation Tests. However, gym teachers will determine when to do the

physical education assessments. These can be done throughout the year, if so desired.

Amended Substitute House Bill 119, effective June 30, 2007, required the state board of education to adopt standards for physical education.

It also required the ODE to hire a coordinator of physical education.

The final part of this bill required all school districts, community schools and chartered nonpublic schools to report the number of minutes and classes per week of physical education for students in grades K-8 during the 2006-07 and 2007-08 school years.

The state then formed a committee to look at physical education needs and create consistent language

On behalf of Bartec and Allen, the 1851 Center for Constitutional Law argued that the smoking ban was supposed to be enforced against smokers, not businesses.

Maurice Thompson, the bar’s attorney, called the ruling discouraging. He said it means “there’s really no meaningful limit on the regulation of private property in Ohio by the government.”

Thompson said it is unlikely the center would appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court on a federal propertyrights issue, even though Ohio’s is the first state Supreme Court to rule on that issue with regard to a smoking ban. He said Ohio has some of the strongest property protection laws in the country.

• CONTINUED FROM A1 complaints were against the bar, not individual smokers.

The opinion further noted the bar had access to an appeals process and did not take advantage of it eight of 10 times.

Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine, legal counsel to the Ohio Department of Health, noted that Zeno’s currently owes more than $40,000 for its repeated smoking ban violations.

“This is great news for the health of Ohioans and for the democratic process,” DeWine said in a statement. “The Ohio Supreme Court has upheld a law passed by a statewide majority of Ohio voters, and

patrons and employees of Ohio businesses will continue to enjoy surroundings that are safer because they are smoke-free.”

Lanzinger’s opinion noted that the bar argued “that prohibiting smoking in an adults-only liquorlicensed establishment, such as Zeno’s, is unduly oppressive and amounts to a taking.”

She said that was “an as-applied challenge” that suggested their unique circumstances made the law unconstitutional for them.

The legal issue was disregarded because it had not been raised in earlier phases of the case.

The 10th District Court of Appeals in Columbus had upheld enforcement of

the law, saying there was overwhelming evidence that Zeno’s owners had intentionally violated the ban.

That decision reversed a lower court ruling that tossed the violations and said the state health department exceeded its authority by holding Zeno’s responsible for the actions of its patrons.

Public health and medical groups lined up Wednesday to praise the ruling. Groups opposed to the ban have included the Ohio Licensed Beverage Association and the Buckeye Liquor Permit Holders Association, where an official has said it is devastating small businesses in Ohio.

Ohio legislators OK new drilling rules COLUMBUS (AP) — Rules regulating oil and gas well construction, water handling, and the disclosure of chemicals used in drilling cleared final legislative hurdles Thursday before heading to Gov. John Kasich.

The Ohio Senate by a 218 vote approved the new regulations governing hydraulic fracturing in the Utica and Marcellus shale formations running under sections of the state.

The provisions are part of the wide-ranging energy bill that also addresses Ohio’s clean energy standard and makes dozens of other changes.

The Ohio House

approved the measure 73-19 earlier in the day.

The energy bill now heads to Kasich, who is expected to sign it.

“We’ll be better stewards of our environment because of it, and our kids and grandkids will thank us for it,” Kasich said in statement. environmental Some groups turned against the bill Wednesday after a provision was added limiting who can sue energy companies for chemical trade secrets.

Among them were the Ohio Environmental Council and the Sierra Club, which had previously been

neutral.

The Kasich administration said it fought to guarantee that owners and adjacent neighbors of well properties could file trade secret challenges.

Environmentalists argued, however, that the language requires all others to show current or potential harm from the secret chemicals before a lawsuit would be allowed.

The language could also preclude the environmental groups themselves from waging legal battles against drillers over their trade secrets, though they could sue on behalf of an affected person.

ONLINE POLL

(WWW.TROYDAILYNEWS.COM)

Question: How much credit does Barack Obama deserve for the death of Osama bin Laden?

Watch for final poll results in Sunday’s Miami Valley Sunday News.

Watch for a new poll question in Sunday’s Miami Valley Sunday News.

PERSPECTIVE

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

— First Amendment, U.S. Constitution

ANALYSIS

G-8 stresses growth, but means are scarce WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama and other leaders of wealthy nations underscored an increasing consensus that their countries need to adopt growth measures alongside relentless budget cutbacks to work their way out of their debt troubles.

It’s a juggle that’s much harder in real life than it is on paper.

Their eight-paragraph statement from the presidential retreat at Camp David, Md., on Saturday seamlessly bridged both sides of the austerity versus growth debate and let each decide exactly what the new growth emphasis is going to mean. And it said little about where the money for more spending might come from.

Their agreement reached quickly after a morning’s discussion at Camp David bridged disagreement by not rejecting one approach in favor of the other, but adroitly combining them. Balance budgets, yes, but find ways to spend, or rather “invest,” on things like education and public works.

The statement clearly reflected Obama’s wish for Europeans to go beyond the austerity approach championed by Germany. Obama’s stance appears to show concern that a deep European recession or financial implosion from Greece leaving the euro could hurt the U.S. economy and complicate his already difficult re-election bid.

In particular, the statement blesses some things that eurozone leaders are likely already doing, such as letting some indebted countries like Spain and Italy move a bit more slowly to close their large budget deficits. Countries need “sustainable” efforts to fix their finances, meaning they can “take into account countries’ evolving economic conditions.”

That could mean slower cuts. Spain, a recent focus of the crisis along with Greece, has sunk into recession and seen unemployment jump to 24 percent, 51 percent for people under 25. Spain is supposed to cut its deficit to the 3 percent EU limit next year, even though the European Commission itself predicts the deficit will come in at twice that. Economists say that the EU may give them and others more time.

Slowing the cuts removes less of the stimulus from government spending. Budget-cutting in countries such as Greece has meant slashing bloated public payrolls a necessary step but one that takes money out of thousands of consumers’ pockets. Italy’s Mario Monti, a G-8 member, has already conceded his country won’t balance its budget next year as planned, but in 2014.

Yet Europe’s chief apostle of austerity, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, gave up very little. She said that she was open to investment in things that would boost growth over the long term. But she made clear that didn’t mean “stimulus,” a word that, like “spending” does not appear in the document.

“This is not about stimulus programs in the usual sense, the way we applied them after the crisis,” she said. “What’s needed much more than that are investments in research and infrastructure, for instance in Europe in digital networks.”

She conceded she was “open” to more use of Europe’s EIB development bank and unspent EU infrastructure funds to help tiny, bankrupt Greece, now in the fifth year of a profound recession. But she insisted Greece’s promises to cut back in return for bailout loans must be strictly observed. The country has no elected government right now and faces new elections June 17; an indecisive election May 6 showed a majority against the austerity measures demanded under the bailouts. Greek rejection of those terms could lead already exasperated eurozone leaders to cut off more bailout payments. That would leave the country unable to pay its bills, a step that could mean an even more savage recession and reintroduction of a devalued drachma in an effort to gain international competitiveness.

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP Arab News, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on Palestinian prisoners: Special Rapporteur Robert Falk of the United Nations, having completed a visit to jails where the Palestinians are held, said that Israel was not treating the hunger strikers in line with international standards. He said he was appalled at Israel’s continuing abuse of the human rights of their prisoners.

Falk cited two men in particular who had been refusing to eat for 63 days in protest at being detained without trial or even the hope of a trial, one for almost two years and the other

since last August. Despite pressure from Israeli human rights groups, the prison authorities have refused to transfer the pair to a hospital. Both are reportedly close to death, taking only water.

This treatment of prisoners, most especially those who have been convicted of no crime whatsoever, is entirely unacceptable.

What is both so startling and depressing about this affair is that the international community seems so remarkably unaware of the plight of these luckless Palestinian prisoners, as they persevere with the brave and dangerous protest of their

hunger strikes.

In part, it could be argued that they have chosen their moment badly.

There is simply too much else happening in the Middle East, not least in Syria, for their predicament to merit much media attention.

However, now that the full details are emerging, both Washington and Brussels should take a lead in demanding that the Israelis live up to the values and responsibilities that they claim to hold so dear. It should be made clear to them, that if any of the hunger strikers dies, they will be held accountable.

DOONESBURY

It’s official: We survived another school year My kid brought home six sweatshirts from school yesterday.

Six. Count them, six.

I try to send the boy with decent layers of clothing, even on the hottest of forecasted days. It’s the Norma Jean in me.

So when I was running low on hoodies, I panicked. Where were they going?

And much like the Twilight Zone, something eerie, downright spooky happened yesterday — my son cleaned out his locker from school.

Much a like a camel, Evan hauled 180 days’ worth of papers, pencils, homework (complete and hidden) and worn down crayons and frayed markers back to the farm. I didn’t find the change from the book fair money I graciously gave him after he bribed the secretary in to calling me for some funds to buy fancy pencils.

Note: Book fair = rip off.

But we survived another year.

Did I just say we? I meant he survived another year. I almost didn’t make it. Barely.

And, to top it off, Evan was the “new kid” at his school this year.

Much like small, rural schools, Evan will still probably be labeled as the “New Kid” until graduation

Melanie Yingst Troy Daily News Columnist day 10 years later.

The new school also had a new school starting time — a whole hour earlier than most schools.

Remember how I’m not a morning person? It was noted several times. Believe me.

Another bonus to this school year was when the Ohio Department of Education decided not to make second graders learn cursive writing anymore.

Don’t you all see that this is good for us parents! Delayed forgery notes! Hello! And to tell you the truth, that cursive ‘z’ was losing its edge because no one really knew how to do it right anyway.

Well, I don’t even know why schools bother with the “Last of School.” They should just call it what it really is: Principal’s Pre-

Approved Movie Day. So here’s a recap of all the little highlights of the past year for Evan and me: 1. The end is the beginning: On the ride home from school today, Evan shared with me that he was going to miss school. Me too little fella. Me. Too. More than you’ll know.

2. Lunch Buddies: During those wee hours of the morning, I found that I actually enjoy packing Evan’s lunch. It may not be the healthiest lunch in the world, but I found I really enjoyed putting Doritos in sandwich baggies.

It was kind of therapeutic. Plus I always liked hearing Evan say, “Mom, you pack better lunches than Dad.” That brings a bit of evil joy in my heart. Moms rule.

And brown bag puppets never get old. Trust me.

3. Parking lot in life: To be totally honest, I take Evan to school every day. Nothing against bus drivers, I just like sleeping in.

Plus that Mean Old Bus Driver retired so I no longer worried about her passing the stories of my impeccable behavior on the bus on to my son. So I pick Evan up at school every day and enjoy the five minutes of “Twin-Time” catching up on my stack of maga-

zines and watching the kids walk by.

4. Blank slate: I try to make an effort to put my kid in clean clothes and decent shoes each day. This year, Evan got more particular about his fashion statements. Well, more like, the lack of the statement. One morning I set out a plain T-shirt which had no lettering, graphics or a silly cartoon on it. Evan said, “What is this? It’s a blank T-shirt. Are you nuts? I can’t be seen wearing a blank T-shirt! That’s just ridiculous.” I vow to never make this mistake again. Swear on my dog’s life.

5. My kid’s teacher is cooler than yours: Enough said. She’s awesome. Amen. All in all, it was a pretty good year. Sure there were some tears (mine) and some rough days (again, mine) but I’m thankful for the hard work of all teachers in all schools. You guys have one tough gig. So go ahead and enjoy the movie, enjoy the peace and quiet and of course, enjoy your summer!

Romney faces tough questions Inner city school leaders reject candidate’s plan PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Mitt Romney struggled to find support for his education proposals while campaigning at an innercity school Thursday, one day after declaring education the “civil rights issue of our era.”

The visit, the first by the likely Republican presidential nominee to such a school, came as he begins to court a broader crosssection of the electorate he needs to defeat President Obama in Barack November. In a speech Wednesday, Romney proposed expanding charter schools, which are privately run but funded by taxpayers, and creating a voucher-like system in which poor and disabled students could attend private schools, also using public money.

But if praise was what he was looking for, Romney had a hard time finding any at the Universal Bluford Charter School in West Philadelphia, a largely African-American neighborhood facing economic, educational and social challenges. Romney wants to deny a second term to the nation’s first black president, whose photograph hung in one of the school’s hallways.

During a round-table discussion, teachers and local education leaders rejected some of Romney’s education prescriptions, including his assertion that

class size doesn’t matter.

Romney also identified two-parent families as one of three keys to educational success, along with good teachers and strong leadership.

Local education leader Abdur-Rahim Islam pushed back, telling Romney that two-parent families are unrealistic in the community. “We will never get to that second part described about having a two-parent situation, parent support, as a key component,” Rahim said.

Steven Morris, a music teacher at the school, disputed Romney’s assertion on class size.

“I can’t think of any teacher in the whole time I’ve been teaching, over 10 years — 13 years — who would say that more students would benefit them.

And I can’t think of a parent that would say ‘I would like my kid to be in a room with a lot of kids,’” Morris said. “So I’m kind of wondering where this research comes from.”

In response, Romney cited a study by the McKinsey consulting firm, which he said examined education systems in foreign countries and concluded that class size wasn’t a significant issue.

While he struggled to win over the group, Romney does not necessarily expect to do well in Philadelphia, a Democratic stronghold. Nor does the

Black voters, who four years ago helped expand the electoral map in places like North Carolina and Virginia and lifted Obama to victory in those states, remain solidly behind him.

An Associated Press-GfK poll this month found that 90 percent of blacks would vote for Obama in November and just 5 per-

cent would support Romney. At the same time, just 3 percent of blacks said Romney “understands the problems of people like you” better than Obama does.

But coming off a divisive Republican primary that was dominated by staunch conservatives, Romney is eager to expand his appeal to independents and moderate voters in swing states like Pennsylvania, where Obama defeated his Republican opponent by 10 points in 2008. The school

Ohio teen to be tried as adult in high school shooting The judge, over the objections of The Associated Press and other media outlets, cleared the courtroom of everyone but Lane and attorneys while a surveillance video of the shooting scene was played. The tape could jeopardize Lane’s chance to get a fair trial, the judge ruled.

Attorneys in the case are under a gag order and the judge extended it to prohibit any discussion of the video.

Geauga County Sheriff’s Deputy Jon Bilicic, who hurriedly dressed when called to duty for the shooting, testified that he helped arrest Lane, who was wearing a T-shirt with the word “Killer,” about a mile from the school and questioned him closely.

Asked by defense attorney Mark DeVan if Lane had admitted, “I shot people,” the deputy answered yes.

The deputy said that Lane was asked about a motive and responded, “I don’t know.”

Asked by the deputy how many people he had shot, Lane responded, “I have no idea,” Bilicic said.

The deputy also acknowledged that Lane indicated he hadn’t been using drugs, wasn’t suicidal or depressed and hadn’t been bullied.

Asked if he had hit anyone in the head, Lane told the deputy, “I don’t know.”

The defense line of questioning apparently was meant to underscore a psychiatrist’s findings that

T.J. Lane, 17, is brought into Juvenile Court in Chardon, Ohio, on Thursday.

Lane sometimes loses touch with reality and suffers from hallucinations, psychosis and fantasies.

One of the first officers at the scene, Chardon Patrolman Matt DeLisa, testified that he found the victims near a cafeteria table with lots of blood around.

Some relatives of victims held hands during the testimony and choked back tears. Relatives weren’t called to testify and deputies guarded the doors as family members left before others in the courtroom were allowed to leave.

Grendell previously found the teenager mentally competent to stand trial in juvenile court, where he was charged with three counts of aggravated murder and two counts of attempted aggravated murder.

Grendell said the ruling on mental competency may not be used in other legal

that a one-day experience in the heart of West Philadelphia is enough to get you ready to run the United States of America.”

Besides discussing his policies with nearly a dozen local education leaders, Romney also visited with children.

He shook hands with a classroom of third-graders and stood virtually motionless for several minutes, bobbing his head ever so slightly at times, as a music class sang and danced for him.

proceedings, meaning the issue may be revisited in adult court.

A psychiatrist had testified that none of Lane’s symptoms detailed in a mental evaluation would prevent him from understanding the case against him and helping in his defense. The psychiatrist said he saw no evidence that Lane was faking mental illness.

Lane attended an alternative school for students who haven’t done well in traditional schools; he had been at Chardon waiting for a bus.

Prosecutor David Joyce said Lane has admitted taking a .22-caliber pistol and a knife to the high school and firing 10 shots at a group of students sitting at a cafeteria table.

The motive for the shooting remains unclear, though Joyce apparently has ruled out theories involving bullying or drug dealing.

2277954

CHARDON, (AP) — A 17-year-old will be tried as an adult in the school shooting deaths of three students, a juvenile court judge ruled Thursday after hearing a sheriff ’s deputy describe how the teen wore a T-shirt with the word “Killer” and admitted shooting people.

T.J. Lane admitted firing at students sitting at a cafeteria table at Chardon High School east of Cleveland on Feb. 27, killing three and seriously wounding two, authorities say.

Lane, with his grandparents and the relatives of victims sitting apart in court, swallowed hard and blinked as Geauga County Juvenile Court Judge Timothy Grendell announced that he should be tried as an adult.

Lane could face life in prison if he’s convicted.

Minors are not eligible for the death penalty in Ohio.

Had his case been routed to juvenile court, the maximum possible penalty would have kept him jailed until he turned 21.

The judge said he found probable evidence in all six charges against Lane, including aggravated murder counts.

He rejected a defense request to release Lane on a $500,000 bond and said Lane would pose a risk to flee and a safety risk to the community.

The ruling capped a morning hearing that offered new details about the attack but left unanswered the question of motive.

visit was in line with the “passionate conservative” push that Republican George W. Bush used to soften his image and win over moderate voters when he was elected president in 2000.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Food stamp recipients are ripping off the government for millions of dollars by illegally selling their benefit cards for cash — sometimes even in the open, on eBay or Craigslist — and then asking the government for replacement cards.

The Agriculture Department wants to curb the practice by giving states more power to investigate people who repeatedly claim to lose their benefit cards.

It is proposing new rules Thursday that would allow states to demand formal explanations from people who seek replacement cards more than three times a year. Those who don’t comply can be denied further cards.

“Up to this point, the state’s hands have been tied unless they absolutely suspected fraudulent activity,” said Kevin Concannon, the department’s undersecretary for food, nutrition and consumer services.

Overall, food stamp fraud costs taxpayers about $750 million a year, or 1 percent of the $75 billion program that makes up the bulk of the department’s total budget for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.

Most fraud occurs when unscrupulous retailers allow customers to turn in their benefits cards for lesser amounts of cash.

But USDA officials are also concerned about people selling or trading cards in the open market, including through websites.

Last year, the department sent letters urging eBay and Craigslist to notify customers that it’s illegal to buy and sell food stamps. USDA officials followed up last month, saying they are still getting complaints that people are using the websites to illegally market food stamps.

Both eBay and Craigslist have told the government they are actively reviewing their sites for illegal activity and

would take down ads offering food stamp benefits for cash. The USDA also has warned Facebook and Twitter about the practice.

South Dakota, Oklahoma, Washington, D.C., Minnesota and Washington state have the highest percentage of recipients seeking four or more replacement cards over a year. But USDA officials said that doesn’t necessarily indicate a high rate of fraud. All states are required by law to reissue lost or stolen cards to those who are eligible for benefits.

Wyoming, Idaho, New Hampshire, North Carolina and Alabama have the lowest percentage of households requesting four or more cards in a 12month period.

In North Carolina, the state already issues warning letters to people who request four replacement cards in a year, letting them know that officials are monitoring them closely. Dean Simpson, chief of economic family services for the North Carolina Division of Social Services, said the new rules would give her state even more of a boost in curbing food stamp fraud.

“I think it would help with the trafficking and let individuals know they are being observed and watched,” said Simpson, who oversees the state’s distribution of food stamps.

More than 46 million people receive food stamps, nearly half of them children. The average monthly benefit is $132 per person.

Benefit cards work like debit cards, allowing users to swipe them for food purchases at some 231,000 stores around the country that are authorized to take part in the food stamp program. Once a card is reported lost or stolen, it can be disabled immediately. But the USDA does not require photo identification, since several members of a family, including children, may use the cards at different times.

AP MOVIE REVIEWS

THE INTOUCHABLES: On paper, this looks like eatyour-vegetables cinema: The story of a wealthy, white disabled man and the troubled black youth from the projects who becomes his reluctant caretaker. Surely, life lessons will be learned by all and an unlikely friendship will form across racial and socioeconomic lines and we'll all feel good about ourselves walking out of the theater afterward.

It could have been painfully mawkish, but writers and directors Olivier Nakache and Eric Toledano upend expectations by infusing the comedy with a subversive, playful tone throughout, with some totally inappropriate humor and even some surprises. It's sweet but not saccharine, and the result is irresistibly crowd-pleasing. (The film is already a huge hit in its native France and beyond, having made nearly $340 million worldwide and earning Omar Sy the Cesar Award for best actor over the Oscar-winning star of "The Artist," Jean Dujardin.) While you're watching it, you can just imagine how easy an English-language remake would be, you could cast it in your head — and indeed, the property already has been optioned for that very purpose. Until then, though, we can be charmed by the original. The hugely charismatic Sy stars as Driss, who spends his days hanging out with his pals on the streets of Paris and not really trying to find work. He only answers an ad seeking help for the rich quadriplegic Philippe (Francois Cluzet) because he wants to make it appear as if he's job hunting in order to keep receiving welfare. But there's something about this guy that Philippe likes; Driss is hired, despite being totally unqualified. And so begins the journey in which each helps the other become a better man. While it all sounds too impossibly inspirational to be true, "The Intouchables" happens to have been inspired by a true story. Yes, the "Magical Negro" element of Sy's character may sound like a cliche and it might make some viewers uncomfortable, but his character is complex and flawed enough to transcend type. He and Cluzet are delightful together, each bringing a different kind of energy while bringing out the best in the other. R for language and some drug use. 112 minutes. Three stars out of four. — Christy Lemire, AP Movie Critic.

MEN IN BLACK 3: There's a moment early on when Will Smith's Agent J sits down next to his longtime partner, Tommy Lee Jones' Agent K, and bemoans the fact that he's too old for this sort of thing — for running around New York in matching dark suits, chasing down aliens and zapping them with their shiny metal weapony doohickeys.

We're paraphrasing a bit. But unfortunately, that's an excellent observation. We're all too old for this sort of thing — the shtick itself has gotten old, and it has not aged well. Fifteen years since the zippy original and a decade since the sub-par sequel, we now have a third "Men in Black" movie that no one seems to have been clamoring for except maybe Barry Sonnenfeld, the director of all three. Long-gestating and written by a bunch more people than actually get credited, the latest film shows the glossy style and vague, sporadic glimmers of the kind of energy that made this franchise such an enormous international hit. But more often it feels hacky, choppy and — worst of all — just not that funny. And of course, it's in 3-D for no discernible artistic or narrative reason. Smith and Jones don't seem to be enjoying themselves, either, in returning to their roles as bickering secret government agents. The plot requires J to go back in time to prevent an old alien nemesis of K's (Jemaine Clement) from killing him during the summer of '69. This prompts all kinds of obvious jokes about the era but also introduces the best part of the whole movie: Josh Brolin as Young Agent K, channeling Jones in eerily dead-on fashion. Enjoyable as Brolin's performance is, though, the novelty wears off pretty quickly. PG-13 for sci-fi action violence and brief suggestive content. 105 minutes. One and a half stars out of four. — Christy Lemire, AP Movie Critic.

MOONRISE KINGDOM: The contradiction inherent to all Wes Anderson films — the juxtaposition of the meticulous artificiality of the settings and the passionately wistful emotions that are longing to burst free — is at its most effective in a while here. The director and co-writer's tale of first love, filled with recognizable adolescent angst and naive fumblings, feels at once deeply personal (and, indeed, it was inspired by a boyhood crush of his own) and universally relatable. Of course, it features the fetishistic obsession with production and costume design that is his trademark; nothing ever happens by accident in Anderson's films, which are frequently and accurately described as dollhouses or dioramas. If you love him, you'll love this: The screenplay, which Anderson co-wrote with Roman Coppola, has resulted in his sweetest and most sincere live-action movie since the one that remains his best, 1998's "Rushmore" (2009's "Fantastic Mr. Fox," which he crafted through painstaking stop-motion animation, is also a charmer). And, similar to "Rushmore," it has precocious, misunderstood young people at the center of its precise yet off-kilter world. Newcomers Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward star as Sam and Suzy, 12-year-old loners who find each other and run away together at the end of summer 1965. Sam, an orphan, flees his Boy Scoutstyle troupe of Khaki Scouts (Edward Norton plays their loyal leader); Suzy, the only daughter and eldest child of married lawyers who ignore each other (Anderson regular Bill Murray and Frances McDormand), feels neglected and has been acting out. Trouble is, these two have nowhere to go — they live on the insular New England island of New Penzance, a rocky, rugged place with no paved roads and only one phone — and a storm of epic proportions is on its way. Bruce Willis, Tilda Swinton, Bob Balaban and longtime Anderson friend and collaborator Jason Schwartzman round out the excellent supporting cast. PG13 for sexual content and smoking. 94 minutes. Three and a half stars out of four. — Christy Lemire, AP Movie Critic.

Those photos need to be private

Today: 5 p.m.: Community Bulletin Board 6:30 p.m.: Talking Pictures 7:30 p.m.: Around Troy

Dear Annie: I am becoming excessively annoyed by a new trend I'm seeing with my friends who have recently become parents — the "naked mommy."

I'm 27 and have not yet had children. Several of my friends are having their second or third, but most are on their first. I work in a physician's office, so I see a lot of medical-related nudity, and it is not a problem for me. But when I check my email, text messages or Facebook page, it is an entirely different story. All of my "mommy friends" are posting pictures of themselves breast feeding or otherwise with everything hanging out for the world to see.

A friend of mine recently posted a very detailed video of the birth of her daughter. Another friend could have fielded a softball team with the number of people who were in the delivery room, including her husband's male friends. It was weird. My sister, bless her heart, dropped her undies at a friend's baby shower to show her episiotomy stitches.

I understand that going through the process of having a baby makes you inured to being naked. But that doesn't mean others want to see you in the raw.

I've tried telling my friends that I have no interest in their breastfeeding and delivery videos, but they say I'm a prude. Am I wrong to think that just because you can take a picture of it doesn't mean you should? — Not a Prude, Just Prudent Dear Prudent: This is a combination of new mommy pride and the current obsession to publicize every private moment — with a little exhibitionism thrown in.

New parents are often so enamored of their amazing experience that they feel compelled to share all the specific details with everyone. We agree that they should save the explicit photos, videos and dropped panties (for heaven's sake) specifically for those who ask to see them.

Dear Annie: A young adult nephew recently sent a letter to family and friends asking for donations to help pay for a summer humanitarian aid trip working as a missionary in a Third World country.

While this person is one of my favorite relatives, I have a problem with this. My idea of fundraising for personal goals is working your tail off at a car wash, not hitting up relatives for money. More importantly, I believe in respecting the religious beliefs of indigenous cultures and providing humanitarian aid with no religious strings attached.

I feel if I raise the first objection, I'll become the black-sheep "Scrooge" of the family. Raising the second point will offend this nephew's religious beliefs. My inclination is to send a small donation and keep my mouth shut. What would you do? — Reluctant Contributor Dear Reluctant: It is not necessary to argue the merits of the trip or your opinion about fundraising.

Your choice is simply to donate or not. If you think a small amount will maintain peace in the family and not overly irritate you, it's a reasonable compromise.

Dear Annie: "Worst Fiance Ever in Toronto" sounds as if he has a lot of remorse about sleeping with his soon-to-be sister-in-law.

However, he can't keep this inside forever.

I really think it's best for him to come clean and tell his fiancee everything, even though the consequences will most probably be the termination of the engagement and possibly the end of her brother's marriage. He messed up big time, and even though it will devastate her family, he owes her the truth so she can plan the rest of her life.

The sister-in-law is just as guilty and needs to bear the consequences of her actions. — Calling It as I See It in Connecticut Dear Calling: We agree that he should tell his fiancee that he cheated. However, naming names and destroying the sister-in-law's marriage is not so simple, and we don't recommend it. That should be her decision, not his.

HOW TO PLAY: Complete the grid so that every row, column and 3x3 box contains every digit from 1 to 9 inclusively. Find answers to today’s puzzle in tomorrow’s Troy Daily News.

YESTERDAY’S SOLUTION:

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Use the Lincoln method to test tires Dear Readers: Do you know how long you should wait before buying new tires?

Several factors go into determining whether you need new tires, not just wear or time.

Here are some hints on what to consider: Tires are considered worn out when the tread depth reaches 1/16th of an inch.

To easily measure this, insert a penny with Lincoln’s head down.

If the top of Lincoln’s head is visible, the tread is too low. It’s time for new tires!

Another important factor is age. Most manufacturers rec-

Hints from Heloise Columnist ommend (regardless of wear) that tires be replaced every five to six years.

Over time, the rubber deteriorates and can cause the tire to fail.

To find the manufacture date, check the sidewall. There is a four-digit number. For example, 4611 means that the

tires were produced the 46th week of 2011. — Heloise Readers, please see the letter below for another safety hint.

TRAVEL HINT Dear Heloise: On a trip to a major theme park, I lost my rental-car keys. Luckily, I had taken a picture of the car and license plate with my cellphone.

I showed the picture to the agent at the lost-and-found desk, and she was quickly able to identify my keys.

The key chain indicated the make and license-plate number.

Thank you for making life a little easier — one hint at a time. — Joan, via email LETTER OF LAUGHTER Dear Heloise: I have a question for you. I would like to know why my cat insists on lying on my feet!

No matter whether I am sitting in the front room or in the bathroom, she comes in and throws herself down on my feet — I think she is trying to keep me at home. — Vivian, via email She must like your company, and your feet are available when a “lap” may not be. — Heloise

HOROSCOPE Friday, May 25, 2012 You should do quite well in the year ahead with endeavors that allow you to use a lot of creativity, be it yours or someone else’s. You’ll be fully prepared and ready to expand upon others’ ideas without depleting their talents.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — If you feel insecure for some reason, be careful not to slip up and try to impress others with false airs or pretenses.

You’re perfectly good being just the way you are.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) — You’ll be sorry if you confuse wishful thinking with intuitive insights. If your hunches don’t play out, you’ll end up being unhappy and sorely disappointed.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — It’s more than likely that you might not be as good at reading the intentions of others as you think you are. Don’t make the mistake of judging your friends’ actions in advance.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — It might take a lot more effort than usual to convince your close associates that your idea and concepts are good. People in general tend to be a bit more skeptical than usual at this point.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Play it smart and don’t offer any unsolicited advice to co-workers regarding something you know little about. If you’re wrong, it’ll make you look bad.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Treat the property of others with the same care and respect you show to all your possessions. If a mishap should occur through carelessness, you will be held accountable.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Don’t make the mistake of assuming your mate will automatically be in accord with you regarding a vital matter. Don’t be sorry afterward, check first and avoid some serious conflict.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Have all the instructions in front of you when attempting to do something new and difficult. If your memory is faulty, you might not be able to correct any mistakes on your part.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Steer clear of an involvement in which the elements of chance are extremely pronounced. Regardless of how lucky you usually are, the odds might not hold up this time.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Your advice to someone who needs a lot of counsel might not be sound. In your desire to spare this person any pain, you might not be as frank as you should be.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Watch what comes out of your mouth very closely. Usually you’re pretty good at keeping promised secrets, but during this cycle you could easily slip and tell what you shouldn’t.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Sharpen up if you find yourself negotiating with a shrewd horse trader. If you are not careful, your desire to get a bargain could cause you to slip and negotiate in a way that works against you.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Friday, May 25, the 146th day of 2012. There are 220 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On May 25, 1787, the Constitutional Convention began at the Pennsylvania State House (Independence Hall) in Philadelphia after enough delegates had shown up for a quorum. (The Convention ended four months later with the delegates adopting the Constitution of the United States.)

On this date: • In 1810, Argentina began its revolt against Spanish rule with the

forming of the Primera Junta in Buenos Aires.

• In 1935, Babe Ruth hit the 714th and final home run of his career, for the Boston Braves, in a game against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

• In 1961, President John F. Kennedy told Congress: “I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth.”

• In 1992, Jay Leno made his debut as host of NBC’s “Tonight

Show,” succeeding Johnny Carson.

• Five years ago: President George W. Bush signed a bill to pay for military operations in Iraq that did not contain a timetable for troop withdrawals.

• Today’s Birthdays: Country singer-songwriter Tom T. Hall is 76.

Actor Sir Ian McKellen is 73. Movie director and Muppeteer Frank Oz is 68. Actress Connie Sellecca is 57.

Actor-comedian Mike Myers is 49.

Actress Octavia Spencer is 42.

Actress Molly Sims is 39. Singer Lauryn Hill is 37. Actor Cillian Murphy is 36.

National EMS Week: More than a job. A calling EMS professionals persevere in changing health care environment While the changes in health care continue all around them, Emergency Medical Service (EMS) providers continue to give vital, quality care, Tony Alexander, EMS manager for Upper Valley Medical

MIAMI COUNTY Center, said.

lighted during National EMS Week, May 20-26.

This year’s theme is “EMS: More Than A Job. A Calling.“ “I am grateful to the more than 250 EMS professionals in Miami County. We are very fortunate to have a lot of resources in this county,” Alexander said.

In 2011, the UVMC Emergency Department saw 42,693 patients, an increase from 2010 of about 2,000 patients.

EMS agencies that bring patients to UVMC have seen an increase over the past few years of about 12 percent. In 2011, nearly 8,000 patients were brought to the ED by 9-1-1 responders.

During the week, people are being asked to recognize the EMS providers who, like all health care professionals, are being affected by changes in health care.

“They are working more and more and with less funding and less staffing. It can be stressful,” Alexander said. “This has happened to everybody in health care. They are not immune to the changes.”

Volunteer EMS providers are harder to

Paramedics from the Piqua Fire Department take a patient from ambulance to UVMC Emergency Department come by as the role requires extensive time and effort.

To become an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) requires 150 hours of class time and four to five months to complete. Those going on to become paramedics have to meet EMT requirements plus another 1,500 hours in the classroom and about two years of training.

“People have to have

some ownership in it for the organization’s sole purpose is to help the community in a time of need,” Alexander said. “It is very rewarding from a personal satisfaction standpoint knowing that you made a difference helping someone in their time of need.”

Anyone interested in investigating the possibility of becoming involved in EMS is encouraged by Alexander to contact their

local EMS department.

“Several departments depend on community involvement and would greatly appreciate any participation they would be willing to provide,” he said.

For more information on EMS services in Miami County or becoming certified as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT), contact Tony Alexander at the UVMC EMS Education Center at 440-4886.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A Senate panel on Thursday rejected the Pentagon’s proposed cuts in personnel and equipment for the Air National Guard as it completed a far-reaching, $631 billion defense budget for next year.

Republicans and Democrats on the Armed Services Committee unanimously backed the budget, which called for the same amount of money President Barack Obama had proposed for the military earlier this year. The total is $4 billion less than the Housepassed bill, and House-Senate negotiators will have to work out the difference.

The committee followed Obama’s

lead on overall spending, but broke with the administration and the Pentagon on several policies. The panel rejected a call for another round of domestic military base closings and rebuffed the Pentagon’s plan to raise enrollment fees for the military’s health care program.

The Pentagon envisions reductions in the size of the force as it emerges from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The cuts also reflect last year’s budget agreement that calls for a $487 billion reduction in projected defense spending over 10 years, a number that could double if Congress and the Obama administration fail to agree on a way to

avert automatic spending cuts in January 2013.

In its budget proposal, the Pentagon called for a cut of 5,100 from the Air National Guard, 3,900 from active duty and 900 reservists as well as 134 aircraft.

The proposal ran headlong into a political reality: The nation’s governors pushed back hard against the cuts, and so did members of Congress.

“Never underestimate the influence of the National Guard,” Sen. John McCain of Arizona, the top Republican on the Armed Services Committee, quipped at a Capitol Hill news conference.

Yingst 1-hits Triad Buccs advance to regional final

BY BEN ROBINSON Sports Writer When you can keep the opposing team off the basepaths, there’s a pretty good chance of victory.

That’s what Covington junior pitcher Casey Yingst and the Buccaneers did Thursday night in a 3-0 shutout victory over a Triad team that had beaten the previous four tournament opponents by a combined score of 391.

“Casey threw a nice game for us,” Covington coach Dean Denlinger said. “Her changeup was working and she was hitting her spots for the most part.”

And Yingst had help behind the plate in catcher Connor Schaffer.

TIPP CITY “Schaffer caught a really good game,” Denlinger said. “She stayed down, which makes it much easier on the pitcher.”

Covington only allowed four Triad runners on base the entire evening, one on a hit, one with a walk and two on errors.

“The errors bother me,” Denlinger said. “Other than those two plays, we played well though.”

The reason the two errors didn’t come back to haunt Covington was due to some outstanding defensive plays and the pitching of Yingst.

Troy Post 43 has depth, experience, talent For the Troy Daily News

TROY

Troy Post 43 baseball opens its 45th season — and 41st under the tutelage of head coach Frosty Brown — by hosting the Memorial Weekend Tournament, beginning at 7 p.m. Saturday at Duke Park.

And with everything going on in the next two weeks, the first order of business will be getting used to the team’s chemistry.

“The start of every legion season is hectic,” Brown said. “Between awards mights, high school tournament play, all-star games and graduations it is very difficult to get everyone together for practice. It s great to see the enthusiasm of this year s team.

We set out to find exactly those kind of players for 2012. We were looking for guys who hustle, who

come to play, who love the game and want to compete. That mindset will be a big improvement.”

The Post 43 pitching staff will be solid as always, even after the of Doug departure Burchfield and Clint Nealeigh, two impact pitchers from last season.

Senior Alex Smith (Lehman) is a third-year veteran that was recently was voted All-Greater Dayton Area Division IV Player of the Year. He has over 150 strikeouts this spring.

Senior Michael Seagraves (Troy Christian) was a record setter in high school, working a lot of innings with a minuscule 0.57 ERA. Senior Steven Blei (Covington) and junior Luke Veldman (Bethel) will both add veteran

know-how to the rotation, while sophomore Ben Langdon (Troy), junior Michael Pierce (Wayne) and sophomore lefty Reid Ferrell (Tippecanoe) will add depth.

Catchers Ian Nadolny (Troy) and Garrett Mitchell (Miami East) have great arms and will work as relievers. Third baseman Nick Antonides (Troy) will be used as a set-up man and senior outfielder Ben Weber (Lehman) has performed well on the mound in his high school career.

The Post 43 catching duties will be handled by juniors Mitchell and Nadolny.

“The athleticism of these two catchers is Brown unbelievable,” said.

“Both have extremely strong arms and quick releases and can hit. Most important, above all else is their

intensity.”

Post 43 also has two sophomore catchers who will split time between the Troy Bombers and the legion team — Jimmy Pelphrey (Bethel) and Michael Fellers (Miami East).

The infield has a veteran look, as well, even at the coaching level.

“Last summer, our infield blossomed under coach Barry Coomes,” Brown said.

“They became team leaders that enabled us to win.

Barry is an infield expert. His hard work and the kids’ willingness to learn paid dividends last summer, and we intend for it to carry over this year.”

Senior first baseman D.J. Hemm (Lehman) brings a great bat back to the lineup, and the double-play combination senior Bradley of Coomes (Miami East) at

second and junior Dylan Cascaden (Troy) at shortstop brings good “D” and solid bats to the line-up. Antonides (Troy) is a threat with a bat and is one of the best fielders Post 43 has had at that position in years, according to Brown.

Junior infielder Bryton Lear (Covington) will see action as both short and second base, Blei will play at third and Nick Sanders (Troy) will split time with the Bombers and the legion team to maximize his playing time in the middle infield.

Weber is the lone returning outfielder from last season. Two new outfielders joining the squad are juniors Devin Blakely (Troy) and Dereck Dunham (Urbana), who both bring a great deal of speed and intensity to the team.

“I like Devin s com-

Brown petitiveness,” said. “We hope help him develop his natural tools because he s capable of amazing things at bat, on the bases and in the field. Dereck is an aggressive hitter and capable of playing either center or right field.”

The third new outfielder sophomore Colt Nealeigh (Greenville), and another talented sophomore who will see action in the outfield is Michael Fellers (Miami East).

“Coach Coomes and I are looking forward to this season,” Brown said.

“We are a revitalized team, with great seed, solid defensive skills, veteran hitters along with several excellent underclassmen. We have pitchers who want to take the mound and perform.

“We feel this team has a lot potential in 2012.”

Bulldogs

Milton-Union’s Cassie Schieltz carries the baton during the 4x800 relay Thursday.

■ CONTINUED FROM 11 here this year and we expected to make it out.

At every point of the race, we were in the mix.

“I have a saying about the 4x8 and the 4x4: You’ve got to get in it to be in it. We were in it the whole time, we just couldn’t pull it out.”

The Bulldogs had bounced back and forth between the first and fourth spot the whole race — even leading the race after Finfrock’s leg ended. Milton-Union was in fourth place when Jackson took over with two laps to go. He stayed in that position until Dunbar made the pass late in the race — but even then Jackson nearly was able to withstand and get his team back into the coveted fourth spot.

“With about 50 meters to go, it wasn’t definite yet because I thought Logan was actually coming back,” Meredith said.

“For 3,150 meters, we were on our way to state.

But it just wasn’t in the cards for us.

“I thought Sergei ran a great leg, got us off to a great start. Clay, Jake and Logan ran well. We just couldn’t get away from fifth place. It doesn’t matter if you’re first, second, third or fourth, it’s how close the team behind you is. They caught us in the end.”

• Back For More Finfrock, Kain Smiley, Minton and Zach Pricer landed themselves in the regional final of the 4x400. The team combined to run a time of 3:29.98, which was good enough for the eighth and final spot for Saturday’s final.

Finfrock also qualified for the finals in the 400 (51.46 seconds).

Chris McGrath’s season came to an end as he finished 12th in the region in the long jump (19-6), with the top four making the cut.

The season also ended for Southwestern Buckeye League champion Tyler Hunt, who failed to make it to the finals in

But for Hunt, going out at regional was a great way to end his sen-

ior season.

“For me to make regional and win league, it was a lot of fun this season,” Hunt said. “It

was a lot more than I expected. I was happy.

“Today was a big wakeup call. There are some good guys out there. That was some good competition. The wind was a pain today, but I made it this far. I had fun. It was a good year.”

• Keeping the Streak Alive The Milton-Union girls 4x800 team made its 17th consecutive trip to regional in the event as the team of Shelby Brumbaugh — a freshman who ran a time of 1:02.07 to miss the cut for Saturday’s finals in the 400 — Jessica Albaugh, Cassie Schieltz and Michela Litton competed on Thursday to earn a trip to state.

The team, however, went on to finish 10th (10:36.81).

“That’s what I told the girls so they would buy into running the 4x800,” Meredith said. “We’ve got a streak going that we don’t want to end.”

The D-II Regional finals will be held at Welcome Stadium Saturday. Start time is 11:30 a.m. for field events, 12:30 p.m. for running events.

CINCINNATI (AP) — Rookie catcher Devin Mesoraco capped a series full of homers with his first career grand slam on Thursday night, leading the Cincinnati Reds to a 63 victory over the Atlanta Braves.

The Reds completed their first four-game sweep of the Braves in Cincinnati since 1980 at Riverfront Stadium. They’ve won six straight, their longest winning streak since August 2010 when they started their push toward the NL Central title.

The teams combined for 16 homers 13 solo shots accounting for 21 of the 24 runs in the series.

Mesoraco connected off Kris Medlen, who relieved Randall Delgado (2-5) with the bases loaded in the

sixth. Drew Stubbs added a solo shot for Cincinnati.

Homer Bailey (3-3) gave up four hits in six innings, including Michael Bourn’s two-run homer. Bailey got back-to-back wins for the first time this season, coming off a victory in Yankee Stadium on Saturday.

Logan Ondrusek pitched the ninth for his second save in three chances, giving up a pair of singes before getting a double play.

The Braves have their first four-game losing streak since they dropped the first four games of the season. They’ll remember this one as four bad days in one of the majors’ most homer-friendly ballparks.

In a free-swinging series, they couldn’t keep up.

Statement sweep for Tribe CLEVELAND (AP) After the final out, closer Chris Perez let out a primal scream and punched the air in celebration.

The Cleveland Indians, overlooked and underappreciated even by many of their own skeptical fans had swept three straight from the Detroit Tigers and their high-priced lineup.

Maybe the AL Central will be a race after all.

Unless the Indians run away with it.

Justin Masterson matched Justin Verlander pitch for pitch for first his career win over Detroit, and the first-place Indians did just enough to beat the reigning AL MVP 2-1

Thursday and complete a three-game sweep of the underperforming Tigers.

Shin-Soo Choo homered on the third pitch from Verlander (5-2) as the Indians won for the eighth time in 10 games and opened a six-game lead over third-place Detroit.

“This is huge for the team,” said Perez, who saved all three games in the series after putting pressure on himself by ripping Cleveland fans for not supporting their team. “We played good ball these last three games. I said when I made the comments that I was just going to go out and do the job. Luckily, I’ve been able to come through.”

less than an NBA title will make for a satisfying summer in South Beach.

Two series down, two to go.

The Heat rallied from an early 11-point deficit, riding the hot hand of Wade in the opening half. He scored 26 points by the break, tying Tim Hardawayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 16-year-old franchise record for most playoff points in the first two quarters. James hit consecutive baskets with just over a minute remaining to close it out.

â&#x2013; Softball

Buccs â&#x2013; CONTINUED FROM 11 double play as Cassidy Cain froze the runner at second on a hard-hit ball to short and then threw to first base for the out.

Morgan Arbogast then threw a dart across the infield to third and Heidi Snipes put down the tag for the double play. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The first-to-third play was huge,â&#x20AC;? Denlinger said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cass (Cain) set it up by freezing the runner and then Arbs (Arbogast) made a perfect throw across the grain. That was one of their fastest runners, too.â&#x20AC;?

The second error came in the top of the seventh with one out, but Yingst struck out the next two batters to end matters with Covington on top 3-0.

But Denlinger felt Covington left runs on the field as it left seven runners stranded in the contest.

First, Jessie Shilt opened the bottom half of the first with a triple, but Covington couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bring her across the plate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can blame that on me,â&#x20AC;? Denlinger said of failing to score in the first inning. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I should have had Heidi (Snipes) put one down, but I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t.â&#x20AC;?

Covington broke the ice in the bottom of the third as Shilt doubled and then scored on a double off the left-field fence by Snipes.

The Buccs scored again in the bottom of the fourth as Schaffer doubled and

Brittanie Flora drove her in with and RBI single.

However, Covington left runners stranded at second and third. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we could have strung together another hit, we may very well could have broken the game open,â&#x20AC;? Denlinger said.

Instead, Covington had to wait another inning before it would break through with another run.

Snipes doubled again with one out and then Casey Yingst hit into a fielderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s choice to move her to third. Schaffer drilled a double off the right-field fence to score the final run of the game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We struggled a little bit early with the outside pitch,â&#x20AC;? Denlinger said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once we found out where the outside pitch was, we hit the ball well â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and hard.â&#x20AC;?

Covington racked up eight hits in the contest as Shilt, Snipes and Schaffer all had two hits each. Both Shilt and Schaffer doubled and tripled, while Snipes connected on two doubles.

Also recording hits for Covington were Flora and Hannah Pond.

Covington improves to 24-4 on the season and advances to the regional final on Saturday against Minster.

Tippecanoe threatened to get right back into the game in the top of the second, but Cowboy starter Kelly Mitchell found his way out untouched.

Langdon and Cameron Johnson hit back-to-back singles to start the inning, but Steven Calhoun â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the hero of the district title game â&#x20AC;&#x201D; grounded into a double play, and a fly ball to the warning track stranded a runner on third. â&#x20AC;&#x153;First and second with no outs, we had to get something there,â&#x20AC;? Cahill said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to play for just one run and Steven has been hitting the ball well, so I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to just bunt the guys over. He hits into a double play, and the inning ends on a flyout to deep left that would have been a sac fly. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can always secondguess yourself once the game is over. After you lose, you can always say â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;what

should I have done?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; or â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;if I had done this or that â&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; But at the time, I thought I made the right call. And I still do.â&#x20AC;?

Mitchell, meanwhile, continued to keep the Devils off balance with a devastating curve that made his fastball appear faster than it really was.

He had control issues that cut his day short, though, with three strikeouts, three walks and three hits surrendered. After he walked Zack Blair to lead off the top of the sixth, Ben Hughes sat back on the curveball â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the first Devil to do so all day â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and drove it into center to chase Mitchell and bring on Kadish in relief.

Kadish quickly recorded two outs, striking out one batter, throwing a wild pitch to allow the runners to move up to second and third then forcing a grounder back to himself and holding the runner at

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I knew it was over his head, but I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sure it was out,â&#x20AC;? Spearman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I saw coach King signal to me it was a home run. To be honest, I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what to think.â&#x20AC;?

But the Cavaliers werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done yet.

DJ Hemm followed with a single and Ben Weber ripped a double over the center fielderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head to score Hemm. And with two outs, Hemmelgarn continued to show his ability to hit in the clutch with an RBI single. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was great (to have a 3-0 lead),â&#x20AC;? starting pitcher Alex Smith said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In fact, it is probably why we won the game.â&#x20AC;?

Tyler Begley settled down after that and the Cougars began to scratch their way back into the game, getting within 3-2.

He greeted Cougar pitcher Tyler Begley with a line drive that carried over the 340 mark in left field to quickly make it 1-0. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was pretty amazing,â&#x20AC;? Spearman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My first high school home run. I never expected that â&#x20AC;&#x201D; especially considering the dimensions here.

third. He then hit Calhoun on the top of the helmet to load the bases, though, and B.J. Donathan walked and Cole Quillen was hit by a pitch to make the score 3-2 and bring up Austin Clack with the bases still packed.

Clack ripped a shot that seemed to be headed to the gap in right-center, but center fielder Chalmers laid out and robbed Clack and the Devils of a sure three runs and preserved the Cowboy lead. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He hit that one off the end of his bat, so maybe thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why it seemed to hang up there for the center fielder,â&#x20AC;? Cahill said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He got a late jump on it but made up the ground in a hurry. If that gets past him, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three runs. Maybe if (Clack) had hit it a little farther down on the bat, that happens.â&#x20AC;?

Kadish recorded a onetwo-three seventh to earn a save and end the young Devilsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; season.

And while this Tippecanoe team saw plenty of success with a large number of underclassmen starters, Cahill knows itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what happens next that matters, not what just happened. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to see how these guys respond after this,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t automatically get placed back here (in the regional) next year.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to get better.

The Red Devils â&#x20AC;&#x201D; who used a highly improbable two-out rally to win its second straight district championship in stunning walkoff fashion a few short days before â&#x20AC;&#x201D; fell behind early and couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come up with another magic moment to get to the next level, falling 3-2 in the Division II Regional semifinal round to Wyoming Thursday at UDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Woerner Field.

And for Tippecanoe (246), one statistic said it all: 0 for 7 with runners in scoring position on the day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hit the ball that hard or that well,â&#x20AC;?

Tippecanoe coach Bruce Cahill said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had too many fly ball outs. We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make them make enough plays, gave them way too many easy plays. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we hit it hard on the ground, they can boot it or throw it away or it can take a bad hop â&#x20AC;&#x201D; anything can happen. Those fly balls were just too easy for them.

It was frustrating.â&#x20AC;?

Even more frustrating for the Devils was how the Cowboys got their runs in the first inning.

A dropped fly ball in left gave Wyomingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leadoff hitter a two-base error, then Casey Howell bunted for a hit after pitcher Carter Langdon slipped trying to field it. A walk loaded the bases with no one out, and Max Kadish ripped a single just under the first basemanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s glove to score the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first run. A passed ball and a squeeze bunt for a single later, it was 3-0. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The dropped fly ball, falling down fielding a bunt, being out of position at first and letting that ball get by, the passed ball â&#x20AC;&#x201D; we gave them three runs,â&#x20AC;?

Cahill said.

It could have been worse, too, but the Tippecanoe defense buckled down. Catcher B.J. Donathan tagged out one runner hung up between third and home on a botched delayed double steal, then right fielder Henry Scott gunned down a runner at the plate trying to score from second on a single to end the inning.

And from there, Langdon settled in and shut down the Cowboys, at one point setting down seven straight. For the game, he gave up six hits, four in the first inning, walked one, hit a batter, struck out three and gave up only one earned run. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He just throws strikes,â&#x20AC;?

Cahill said of Langdon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in and out of the zone, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tough to center up. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a strikeout pitcher, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a ground ball pitcher. And he did a great

extreme heat, and the temperature in a stationary vehicle can easily reach fatal extremes, even if the weather is only around 70° outdoors.

Parents might think they’ll only be a minute in the store and that it’s not worth wrestling with a car seat to bring a child inside with them, but studies show that the temperature inside a car can go from normal to 94.3° in just two minutes. Leaving the windows down does not let enough cooler air in to mitigate the heat increase inside.

Cars get so hot because dense, dark objects such as the dashboard, steering wheel, and seats absorb the sun’s heat and radiate it into the surrounding air of the car’s interior. Those objects themselves can be more than hot to the touch, reaching as much as 180°. That means it’s also important to always check the seatbelt buckles and seats to make sure they won’t burn a child’s tender legs.

Take extra precautions against hot-car hyperthermia by teaching children to never play alone inside cars and by making sure that all children have left the car when you reach your destination. Most important of all, never, ever, leave an infant to finish a nap in a parked car.
