Official testifies alongside ousted IRS chief WASHINGTON (AP) — Senior Treasury officials were made aware in June 2012 that investigators were looking into complaints from tea party groups that they were being harassed by the Internal Revenue Service, a Treasury inspector general said Friday, disclosing that Obama administration officials knew

there was a probe during the heat of the presidential campaign. J. Russell George, the Treasury inspector general for tax administration, testified alongside ousted IRS head Steven Miller, who did little to subdue Republican outrage during hours of intense congressional questioning. Both defiant and apologetic, Miller

acknowledged agency mistakes in targeting tea party groups for special scrutiny when they applied for tax-exempt status, but he insisted that agents broke no laws and that there was no effort to cover up their actions. Miller only stoked the criticism of many Republicans, who are assailing the administration on a

sudden spate of other controversies, as well, even as some Democrats tried to contain the political damage. “I don’t know that I got any answers from you today,” Rep. Mike Kelly, R-Pa., told Miller. “I am more concerned today than I was before.” At one point in the day’s hearing, Treasury IG George said he

Mission: Veterans to D.C. to hold final celebration

COMING SUNDAY

BY ALYSSA RECK Staff Writer pdceditorial@civitasmedia.com

Dairy farm is certified organic If you ever pondered why the cow jumped over the moon in the classic children’s rhyme, just ask a dairy farmer: cold hands. Ask an organic dairy farmer for his answer, and the reply most likely would be that the cow jumped over the moon to clear the mountain of paperwork to become a certified organic dairy producer. The Bair family has owned and operated their dairy farm for decades, and they enjoy sharing with the public how they’ve made the transition — or giant leap — to become a certified organic dairy farm.

BY MELANIE YINGST Staff Writer myingst@civitasmedia.com Thousands of children turned the Stillwater Prairie Reserve into the Stillwater Prairie Rock & Roll Party all week during the Miami County Park District’s annual Hug the Earth Festival. More than 3,000 students rocked out with the Banana Slug String Band all week as part of the end of the school year festival. Students learned songs such as “Dirt Made My Lunch” and “Water Cycle Boogie” during the school year and celebrated with the educational band at the Hug the Earth festival along with a day full of fun and a

MIAMI COUNTY variety of activities from Earthball to ropes courses. Heywood Elementary fourthgraders Meryah Garrett, Ayzia Love, Cassidy Poland and Emily Wenrick took advantage of the shade to reflect on their day of outdoor adventures. “I learned about the six different plant parts today,” Poland said, noting that her favorite activity was the high ropes course. “I liked doing the zipline because when you go down, it tickles and feels like you’re flying,” Garrett said. • See OUTSIDE on 2

The group Mission: Veterans to D.C. pulled together the last of its resources to host an event that provides veterans the opportunity to learn more about the D.C. memorials that honor their service to our country. Veterans are invited to visit with one another over a provided meal, while listening to music from the past. A collection of military vehicles also will be available to browse during the event. This celebration for Miami County veterans will be from 3-7 p.m. June 15 at Piqua Junior High School. There is no cost to attend the celebration, but an RSVP is requested. Mail the veteran’s name, address and phone number along with the information for one optional guest to Mission: Veterans to D.C., P.O. Box 569, Piqua, OH 45356. Tickets can be picked up at the door the day of the event and dress is casual. This final celebration encompasses the success of 11 trips to the capital, which started in 2007. Glenn Devers, founder of Mission: Veterans to D.C., started the trips to honor his four brothers, who returned safely from World War II. “I began to wonder if other veterans would enjoy going to see their monuments,” Devers said. On the morning of day one, veterans gathered to get onto the bus and drive to just outside of D.C. The second day was spent at the memorials and gave veterans time to talk about the memorials. The final day was spent driving back to Piqua, providing time for reflection. The bus ride to and from D.C. offered veterans a chance to talk about their experiences and their personal journey. “When the veterans talk to • See VETERANS on 2

TROY amazing supply of water in its rivers and underground in the aquifers,” organizer Dusty Hall said. “What people often don’t think about is all these opportunities we can create to drive the economy, which also requires a skilled workforce, and in order to

With more than 20 college and university members within SOCHE,

developers have the opportunity to connect young people to water-based fields. “We can leverage water resources for production, for example, of something directly water-related like aqua-farming, such as in ponds.

had told the department’s general counsel about his investigation on June 4, 2012, and Deputy Treasury Secretary Neal Wolin “shortly thereafter.” But, George cautioned, those discussions were “not to inform them of the results of the audit. It was to inform them of the fact that we were conducting the audit.” After the hearing, inspector general spokeswoman Karen Kraushaar said George “informed Department of Treasury officials that we were looking into the IRS’ handling of applications for taxexempt status, partly due to allegations raised by conservative organizations.” Kraushaar said the dis-

closure was part of a routine briefing about the office’s activities. Treasury The Department issued a statement Friday saying officials first became aware of the actual results of the investigation in March of this year, when they were provided a draft of George’s report, a standard practice. George’s disclosure came before the House Ways and Means Committee in the first of several congressional hearings on the matter. He was joined by Miller, who spoke publicly about the controversy for the first time. Miller was contrite as he apologized for the actions of agents who singled out conservative political groups for additional,

often burdensome scrutiny. “First and foremost, as acting commissioner, I want to apologize on behalf of the Internal Revenue Service for the mistakes that we made and the poor service we provided,” he told the committee. “The affected organizations and the American public deserve better.” But the hearing turned prickly when Miller insisted he did not deceive Congress, though he repeatedly failed to reveal the controversy last year when he was asked about it by lawmakers even after he had been briefed. “I did not mislead Congress or the American people,” Miller said. The administration is on the defensive for a trio of issues that are threatening to derail the presi-

about in the classroom outside in the environment,” Hall said. “This ties in perfectly with the curriculum and reinforces what we’ve been teaching,” Stanislaw shared. “Plus, it’s some of these kids’ first times out in a county park so it’s exciting for them to be able to enjoy the outdoors in a place they’ve never been.” It was new experiences such as the Zipline, high ropes course and a new tree climbing station that keeps students excited about learning and exploring their outdoor environment, said Cinda Hanbuch-Pinkerton, education director for the Miami County Park District. “Every year they come back and perform different songs and still remember the words to the ones they’ve done in the past,” she said. “It’s really a great program that engages each student in a way they learn.” The program integrates environmental explorations with art, music and innovative science activities and takes

place over the school year in the school classroom, land labs and outdoors in the Miami County Park District parks. HanbuchPinkerton said students enjoyed activities such as the Ohio Aggregates and Minerals Industrial Association “Big Dig,” where students searching through gigantic piles of sand to uncover different rocks and fossils from Ohio. After identifying them, students learned how they are used in everyday life. “Whether it’s hands-on concepts with the physical activities like with the rock digs, or if they may learn best through the art projects they make to go with their song or if they may learn the best by learning the songs and the hand motions — it all goes together and we sneak in the learning while they do it,” Hanbuch-Pinkerton said. The Hug the Earth Festival continues today from noon to 6 p.m. at Stillwater Prairie Reserve. For more information, visit www.miamicountyparks.com.

dent’s second-term agenda. In addition to the IRS case, President Barack Obama and other officials are being pressed about last September’s terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya, that killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans, and the government’s seizure of Associated Press telephone records as part of a leaks investigation. “Listening to the nightly news, this appears to be just the latest example of a culture of cover-ups and political intimidation in this administration,” said Rep. Dave Camp, R-Mich., chairman of the Ways and Means Committee. “It seems like the truth is hidden from the American people just long enough to make it through an election.”

Teen charged in deaths Veterans

May 18, 2013

TOLEDO (AP) — A 17year-old who told authorities last week where they could find the bodies of two teenage brothers has been charged in their deaths, and prosecutors want to try him as an adult. The aggravated murder charges announced Friday against Michael Fay came just over a week after he and the teens were named in an Amber Alert issued after the slain brothers’ mother discovered a gun and blood inside a trailer

home where the three boys lived with their mothers. The mother frantically called 911 on May 9, telling authorities to “please hurry.” The brothers, 14-yearold Blaine Romes and 17year-old Blake Romes, were found dead several hours later. Fay told officers that the Romes brothers were dead and pointed authorities to their bodies after he was found with a stolen car at a gas station in Columbus.

Often the Miami County veterans would end up talking to someone not in the group and share their experiences with them. “There is a lot of understanding that takes place,”

Devers said. On each trip Devers attended, a book was passed around, being filled with the signatures of the veterans present. From this book, it was clear the gratitude veterans had for being able to go to D.C. Devers was humbled by the experience of meeting the veterans, hearing their stories and giving back to them. “I’ve received the blessings most of all,” Devers said. Devers mentioned that the trips were designed to express appreciation for the veterans and give them a marvelous experience. The final trip took place spring 2012. With this last trip, a total of more than 350 Miami County veterans have been honored, 200 traveling companions have provided support for their loved ones by going on the trip and more than 180 volunteers have gone to D.C. “It’s important to listen to your heart and obey what your heart is saying,” Devers said.

aquaculture, another term for the farming of fish. With the U.S. importing about 90 percent of seafood consumed in the U.S., aquaculture could provide a way to significantly boost the local and regional economy, said Hall, who previously worked for the Miami Conservancy District. Taking a big-picture approach to the water supply could yield significant advantages for the local and regional economy, he added. “Water factors in a whole bunch of ways, including attraction and retention as well as creating opportunities to drive the economy and create jobs,” Hall said. “It has the one-two punch of job creation and then the ability to attract and retain the workforce to fill those jobs.” Ohio’s Great Corridor Association (OGC) in particular is connecting city waterfronts by offering water-related activities such as kayaking and canoeing, as well as development strategies to bolster economic development. “Troy has amazing leadership to drive this conversation and keep it alive,” Hall noted. At the forum, Troy Project Manager and OGC executive Stan Kegley will provide an update on issues related to the water supply.

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

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP The Star-Ledger, Newark, N.J., on Angelina Jolie’s public announcement of double mastectomy is heroic: Angelina Jolie, in publicizing her double mastectomy, now joins a pantheon of celebrities who have gone public with private pain to help others. It was a brave decision that will almost certainly save lives. And it should also ignite a discussion about the costs of genetic testing for women who are at high risk, as Jolie was. Jolie, 37, wrote about her decision to have the procedure done as a preventive measure in today’s New York Times. Her mother died of ovarian cancer at the age of 56 in 2007. She has six children with actor Brad Pitt - three adopted, three biological — and the thought of leaving them motherless was a strong motivating factor for the actress. She has been expert at using her celebrity to advance the causes she cares about — refugees and rural poverty among them — so perhaps her personal announcement is not so strange. Jolie’s genetic tests revealed she carried the faulty gene that gave her a heightened risk of developing breast cancer, and to a lesser extent ovarian cancer. That’s when she decided to take action and have both breasts removed in February; breast reconstruction followed nine weeks later. Jolie’s announcement brings to mind other high profile declarations of disease and illness: Betty Ford’s battle with breast cancer in 1974 was the first to bring the big C out of the closet for many women. Later, Ford would do another public service by openly discussing her alcoholism and addiction to pills, and establishing a clinic to treat addictions. In more recent years, Magic Johnson’s announcement that he was infected with HIV raised awareness and helped remove the stigma associated with the virus that causes AIDS. But Jolie’s announcement is in many ways singular. She is an actress at the height of her stardom, beauty and sex appeal — the latter is a big factor in her popularity. She and Pitt have been expert at managing their fame as the hot celebrity couple of their generation. By going public with her personal challenge, while still very much in the public eye, Jolie has shown extraordinary courage, the kind that leaves her cinematic heroines in the dust. Chicago Tribune on Biotech crops and Europe, losing battle against progress: Last year, too dry. This year, too wet. Spring planting is never perfect in America’s agricultural heartland. The past few growing seasons have been especially challenging. Yet crop yields have held up. One reason: bioengineered seeds, a big improvement on the ones Grandpa planted: The corn and soybeans grown across Illinois today are nearly all genetically modified to resist insects or tolerate herbicides. By protecting against pests and weeds, this technology helps to ensure ample harvests even in lousy conditions. Combine bioengineering with much-improved crop genetics, and the bins overflow. So why won’t Europe let its farmers plant these improved seeds? Farmers want that technology because it works and it’s safe: Two decades of experience here has yielded no harm to people or the environment. The EU’s food safety watchdog has given its OK for cultivation of more genetically modified crops. But politicians won’t give their OK. The irony is that while Europe keeps its farmers from growing genetically modified crops, its citizens consume them in rising abundance. Europe especially depends on bioengineered soybeans from abroad for the animal feed used to produce meat, milk and eggs. The same crops officials won’t approve for planting routinely enter the continent via import. Unless the Europeans change their ways, they will have to keep importing more from the U.S. and other foreign sources, because their hypocritical policies make their agricultural sector less productive than it should be. Europeans compound the damage they do to the poor by discouraging the developing world from adopting genetically modified crops. European opponents of modern practices claim that embracing them would put poor farmers at the mercy of big companies such as Monsanto that sell state-of-the-art seed, fertilizer and pesticide. They also falsely claim the jury’s out on whether genetically modified crops can increase yields. Some of their scare tactics are terribly patronizing: The opponents suggest, for instance, that farmers in the developing world should continue planting inferior seeds in the interest of promoting biodiversity.

DOONESBURY

You truly know you are a parent when ... Seriously, I’m so ready for July. Between doctor appointments, 3-year-old birthday parties and dance classes, being a parent these days can be exhausting. And don’t forget to add in the whole nourishing, bathing, rocking to sleep, soothing and entertaining part of raising a child too. My husband and I like to joke about our life before children. Like when it was just the two of us and our dog. We used to think we were busy. Now, we can’t imagine what we were busy doing — pretending to be busy, perhaps? Then when we had our daughter three years ago, we thought for sure we understood what it was to feel time crunched. Getting anywhere with a little human being in tow took at least 30 minutes longer. And then we had Braeburn. As parents of two, we laugh about the “fast-paced” life we had with one child. We like to say that we were just playing house when we had one child. We still outnumbered her, we could easily find alone time and did I mention we outnumbered her? Now, with Braeburn in the picture, there isn’t a sane moment in the home it seems. All those times I regurgitated some parenting

Amanda Stewart Troy Daily News Columnist crap about how another couple or family’s strategy for raising multiple children wasn’t right went out the window. When you have more than one child, there is no such thing as planning. You do what keeps you and your partner sane and you just try to survive. Something else happens when you have a second. Your brain essentially turns to mush. I have the hardest time remembering tasks for the day, let alone to renew the tags on both of our vehicles on my birthday. Happy birthday Amanda, you have to pay $40 in late fees because you can hardly recall putting laundry detergent in the wash; so naturally you remembered to renew your tags, 31 days late.

— Alexis Schwartz PTO President 2013

And while we’re on the topic of memory, let’s talk about that big bachelor/bachelorette combo party you and your husband are planning for your best friends this weekend. It’s great that you remembered to get the four cases of alcoholic beverages for your house, but it might be nice if these people knew where your house was. Or when the party was, for that matter. You know you’re really a parent when you and your partner start arguing over who gets to remain stone-cold sober for the “big party.” Sure, you’re the maid of honor and he’s the best man, but by the second child you know the wrath of a morning-after hangover with children all too well — and you’re not falling for it this time. You know what’s more fun than drinking an obscene amount of alcohol with your friends? Not waking up hungover the next day with two children who want to build forts and cry if you’re not holding them. But before you get ready for that big party, you’re going to have to take a shower. And well, there’s something else about being a parent that comes along with bathing yourself. You probably haven’t taken a shower alone since before

they were born. It doesn’t matter if you sneak in at 5 a.m. after a spinning class; even if you’re not accompanied by a breathing child splashing at the edge of your tub, you’ll be greeted by a hoard of rubber duckies, plastic cups and pointy action figures (that feel like daggers when you step on them). I know what you’re thinking, exercising at five in the morning? No parent would ever do that, they want their sleep. You’re almost on the right track — except there’s one thing a parent wants more than sleep — alone time away from their child. If that happens to entail running 5Ks, 10Ks or a half marathon in June to get said alone time, there’s no distance you won’t run (or walk very fast in the event you feel like you might die from running). The truth is though, despite all the not-so-glowy things that come along with being a parent, it’s something most wouldn’t trade for anything in the world. Except for maybe some alone time. And a coffee.

Dark clouds hang over air shows after budget cuts

BRUNSWICK, Maine (AP) — Patty Wagstaff is a Hollywood stunt pilot, three-time U.S. aerobatic champion, inductee to the National Aviation Hall of Fame and favorite on the air show circuit. One of her tricked-out planes is on display at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. But this weekend, she’s grounded. Federal budget cuts that eliminated military flying acts triggered the cancellation of dozens of air shows, meaning lost income for air show performers, announcers, concessionaires, vendors and others who depend on air shows and the millions of spectators. The cancellations also mean disappointed fans, fewer events that celebrate aviation and inspire youngsters and lost military recruiting opportunities. “This is as American as apple pie,” said Sean Tucker, another top aerobatic pilot, from Salinas, Calif. “It’s the Indianapolis 500, the Fourth of July, and ‘Top Gun’ rolled into one.” Air shows pump about $1.5 billion into the economy and draw nearly three times more spectators than OBERT ENKINS NASCAR events, according to the International Council diploma in TROY — of Air Shows. 1976.

The U.S. Navy Blue Angels precision flying team has canceled its appearances around the country this year. Federal budget cuts eliminated the military flying acts and triggered the cancellation of dozens of air shows. expose kids to aviation, and it’s the only place where you can go and touch an airplane, sit in the cockpit, talk to the pilots.” All told, 64 air shows including the Great State of Maine Air Show that depended on military participation have canceled, accounting for a loss of nearly a third of air show revenue, and the figure could go as high as 100, said John Cudahy, the air show council’s executive director. Industry insiders believe the military jet teams will be flying again next year, but there’s no guarantee from the military or Congress. It’s a huge disappointment to fans like Candace Muehleisen, a real estate broker who has attended nearly 20 air shows over the years in California and Maine, where she now lives, always arriving early to ensure she’s on the front row. Military jet pilots inspire spectators with their aweinspiring skill while showing off the military’s capabilities for taxpayers, Muehleisen said. “It’s a very positive thing for young people, just to see the skill and the beauty of what these guys can do and the training they get. It’s a really, really good thing,” she said. Not everyone shares that view. Critics like Bruce Gagnon say air shows pollute the environment, waste money and glorify war. “It’s a recruiting gimmick, a very expensive recruiting gimmick, and we think it’s part of this, sadly, growing culture of militarism in our country,” said Gagnon, a peace activist from Bath who served in the Air Force in the Vietnam era. Not all air shows are being canceled. And many in the air show business will do fine this summer.

In this June 1999 file photo, Patty Wagstaff stands near the tail of her plane, an Extra 300S, during a break in a performance at Cannon Air Force Base in Clovis, N.M. The cancellation of dozens of air shows causes lost income for performers like Wagstaff, along with air show announcers, concessionaires, vendors and others who depend on air shows and the millions of spectators. Tucker, who’s performing over Memorial Day weekend at the Jones Beach Air Show in New York, said corporate sponsors are trying to line up smaller events to fill his schedule after eight of his 20 shows were canceled. For others, it’s a bigger deal. In Tallahassee, Fla., Bob Anderson and his family operate a six-figure business selling T-shirts at air shows. Business was so good for his product line that focused almost exclusively on the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds that he upgraded to a motor home for his seasonal business travel. Instead, the motor home

is parked, and he’s installing floors. Air show announcer Rob Reider of Cincinnati lost half his season, which is his primary source of income. “Am I angry? Yes, because it’s hurting me,” he said. “If something doesn’t brighten up by the end of this year, I’ll be looking to do other things and air shows will become a backburner business.” The losses carry on down the line to the concessionaires who feed spectators, vendors who provide hundreds of portable toilets, rental car companies that supply vehicles, hotels that house pilots and crews, and providers of aviation fuel.

A Friday morning house fire in Piqua displaced two families and resulted in heavy damage to a home. Piqua firefighters were called to 515 Adams St. around 5:30 a.m. on a reported fire with possible entrapment. They arrived to find the multi-family structure heavily involved in flames. Piqua Assistant Fire Chief Vince Ashcraft said the family living in the downstairs portion, including one confined to a wheelchair, were all able to escape the flames. Two of the three upstairs residents were able to get out of the burning home but one was trapped on an upstairs balcony. Firefighters were able to rescue the resident by getting a ladder to the balcony. Witnesses on the scene reported that a man jumped from the upstairs

of my grandparents walking around the block with samples,” Dexter said of Saturday’s Lemonade Day. “I don’t think I’m going to do that, because I don’t want to become like a chain restaurant.” Grandparents influenced Dexter to make one change for this year’s Lemonade Day. He plans to donate part of his earnings to the American Cancer Society after two grandparents battled cancer. Last year, he made a donation to his church, First United Methodist. He also has an idea of what he’d like to buy with the money he earns. He’s hoping to combine his Lemonade Day money with some savings and purchase an iPod Touch. Lemonade Day fills a gap, according to Dexter’s mother, Nicole Griffin. Children don’t always have an outlet for business interests, she said. “It’s really a great program,” she said. “If your kids are interested in music or chess or some other interest, there are a lot of different programs in

school. Dexter definitely has ambitions of becoming an entrepreneur.” Dexter has shown creativity in the process of running his lemonade stand, said his father, Donald Griffin Jr., who owns Griffin Realty at 205 N. College Ave. in Bloomington. “He has ideas of what can be done that are different than what I thought,” he said. Those ideas include his future. “I have thought about going to college and getting my real-estate license,” Dexter said. “Then I can let my dad retire and take over his business.”

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — Dexter Griffin’s experience at last year’s Bloomington Lemonade Day was sweet enough that he’s keeping his stand on the same spot for 2013. “I really liked the turnout last year,” said Dexter, an 11-year-old sixth-grader at University Elementary School. He staked out the corner of Sixth Street and College Avenue for his lemonade stand, dubbed Little G’s Lemonade. “I picked the corner because right down there is the farmers’ market,” he said. “So when people get back from the farmers’ market, they can grab something to drink.” Dexter plans to man his stand from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. He’s scheduled to be one of nearly 250 children scattered throughout the city for the second annual Bloomington Lemonade Day on Saturday. The kids will work with 180 mentors to sell from about 200 stands, The Herald-Times reported. Bloomington is one of 36 cities in the United States and Canada hosting Lemonade Days this year. The events aim to teach kids entrepreneurship skills by having them build stands and operate their own childhood small businesses. It instructs them on creating budgets, setting profit goals and repaying investors. It also attempts to teach children to spend some of their profits, save some profits and give some profits back to the community. Last year, children did end up with profits in Bloomington, according to Lemonade Day statistics. The 216 registered children averaged $65 in expenses while earning an average of $270 in revenue an average profit of $205. The program seems to have Dexter building some entrepreneurial muscle. He’s been handing out save-the-date cards to people who might want to visit his stand Saturday. And he’s been pouring his lemonade at events such as a Boys and Girls Clubs of Bloomington dance in March. “We talked about some

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Talk to a lawyer and see what your options are Dear Annie: I've been married to "Ned" for 25 years, and each year it seems to get worse. When we married, he told me I could do whatever I wanted with the house, but he never said I'd be the one paying. The house was barely furnished, the bedding had holes in it, the carpet was a mess, and the curtains were stained. I replaced all of that, but Ned wouldn't contribute a dime. Aside from being cheap, he never mowed the lawn, raked the leaves or cleaned the garage. He only wanted to fish. I did the maintenance as long as I could, and now we pay someone else to do it. Here's the current problem: Ned has dementia and doesn't realize that his kids have control of his money. His kids have told him he can drive to get his mail. Of course, he then drives all over town. He's been in three accidents already. I saw a lawyer to get my name removed from the car title in case Ned injures someone. I don't want to be financially or criminally responsible. I don't know how much more I can take. I spend all my money on the upkeep of the house. What can I do? — Second Wife Dear Wife: Please notify your police department or the Department of Motor Vehicles that Ned has dementia and should not have a driver's license. Ned's doctor can help. When Ned is in an accident, do not repair the car unless you need it yourself. Let his kids fix it, or allow the car to become too damaged to run. Talk to your lawyer about Ned's will. Does he have a health care power of attorney? Who owns the house? Can you stay there if Ned dies? You need to sort this out and see what your options are. Dear Annie: My mom is in an excellent skilled nursing facility. The staff is great, but they sometimes say things that are not helpful. Last month, a staff person said, in front of residents and visitors, "Your mom really wants to go to church. She cries about it." I was embarrassed and said, "Fine." By Sunday, however, Mom said she didn't want to go. This is how it is with her for every occasion. When I do convince her to go, she procrastinates and we arrive late. She then falls asleep and later complains that she didn't have a good time. Part of this is dementia, but it's also her personality. She has always been a manipulator. What Mom really wants is for me to be with her 24/7. She has even suggested that I sleep on the tiled floor next to her bed. The staff members don't see this. So, please do not humiliate the adult children. This public berating, no matter how sweetly delivered, leaves my mother unhappier than before. If you need to consult with us, please do so in private. — Her Daughter Dear Daughter: All such suggestions should be done privately. Please cut this out of your newspaper (or print it from the website) and bring it to the nursing home where the staff can see it. They mean well, but this is not appropriate. Dear Annie: I read the letter from "Uneasy About Switching," who wants to change hairstylists. I am a hairstylist, and I have realized over the years that we can't possibly please everyone. I have had clients I treasured and thought were "forever clients," but when I couldn't accommodate them due to scheduling, surgery, etc., they went to someone else. It hurt my feelings until I realized we don't "own" anyone. In fact, I, too, have switched who does my hair over the years. But I would appreciate being told why. — A Hairstylist Who Understands Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) Country star Randy Travis has filed a lawsuit to prevent two state agencies from releasing a patrol car video of his 2012 DWI arrest in North Texas. The Austin AmericanStatesman (http://bit.ly/108QQ5x ) reported Thursday that the lawsuit filed in Austin names the Texas Department of Public Safety and the state attorney general’s office. Travis pleaded guilty in January to driving while intoxicated. A judge sentenced him to two years’ probation and ordered a 180-day suspended jail term. The judge also granted a defense motion asking that the arrest video not be made public. Media groups have requested the video from DPS. The AG’s office ruled May 3 that the judge doesn’t have discretion to bar the video’s release. DPS and the AG’s office

Karan sheds light on Haitian artisans MIAMI (AP) — Fashion designer Donna Karan visited Miami’s Little Haiti. The Little Haiti Cultural Center is exhibiting art, accessories and furnishings produced by artisans in Haiti. The items are sold through Karan’s Urban Zen Foundation. Karan spoke at the cultural center Friday afternoon about working with Haitian artisans. She’s among the designers and celebrities who have advocated for Haitian artisans since a catastrophic earthquake shook the Caribbean country in 2010. At the National Retail Federation Awards in January, Karan said she’s often asked why she’s committed to working in Haiti. She said she believes that where there is creativity, there is hope. She called Haiti “the most hopeful place I know.”

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Adoption brings new life for dogs and cats Dear Heloise: I, too, want to say “thank you” for promoting adoption of shelter dogs and cats. I persuaded my husband to let me foster a dog until it could be adopted. The Humane Society gave us a 3-year-old white boxer found wandering the streets, underweight and with injuries. The Humane Society had taken him from animal control, where he was scheduled to be put down the next day. It took only a few hours for us to fall in love with him, so instead of fostering, we adopted him. We treated his injuries and helped him get back to his ideal weight. When we meet people during our daily walks, they tell our dog how lucky he is that we adopted him. But we

She would go to the bigger stores, and the flowers cost her quite a bit.At a dollar store, I saw pretty artificial flowers that were only $1! I told my grandma, and now she gets the flowers there. They are just as pretty, and they save money. — Josephine M., via email How thoughtful of you to help your grandmother save money. — Heloise PET PAL Dear Readers: Paul “Maggie” Maguranry of Hammond, Ind.,

sent a photo of his black-and-white cat, Anna, looking a little scary. Her mouth is open and her teeth are showing, with her eyes a bit narrowed and her ears back.

HOROSCOPE BY FRANCES DRAKE Saturday, May 18, 2013 There’s a strong possibility that in coming months you will become involved in an endeavor that requires secrecy. It could either bomb or turn out better than you anticipate. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Unless you think for yourself, others will do your brainwork for you. You might not be too happy about what they come up with. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Think through your moves carefully when it comes to financial dealings. Impulsive behavior will instigate numerous errors. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — What others think of you might be more important than usual. Be careful that you don’t do anything that could lower the high esteem in which you’re now held. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Follow a previously conceived plan for a project to the letter. On-the-spot changes could seriously gum up the works. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — By being too inquisitive, you are likely to ask questions whose answers you don’t want to hear. What you don’t know can’t hurt you. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Success is likely if you continue to use the same methods that have worked well in the past. Making revisions could throw you off course. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Don’t let your ego cause you to take an unsupportable position. Your pride can get you in some extremely hot water, if you’re not careful. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Matters that affect your earnings must be given top priority. If something of a frivolous nature should pop up, put it on the back burner where it belongs. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Even though you might not get the last word in every instance, don’t let it frustrate you. If you’re patient, you’ll still be able to make your most important points. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — You’ll make good progress on your goals, though few will be completed. Be grateful for whatever headway you do end up making. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — When socializing with friends, find the balance between cheapness and extravagance. Don’t spend more than you can afford, but don’t hold back, either. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — A situation that has been souring a close relationship with a friend can be resolved, if you’re motivated to do it. Both parties must be forthright.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Saturday, May 18, the 138th day of 2013. There are 227 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On May 18, 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed a measure creating the Tennessee Valley Authority. On this date: In 1863, the Siege of Vicksburg began during the Civil War, ending July 4 with a Union victory.

In 1896, the Supreme Court, in Plessy v. Ferguson, endorsed “separate but equal” racial segregation, a concept renounced 58 years later in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka. In 1910, Halley’s Comet passed by earth, brushing it with its tail. In 1969, astronauts Eugene A. Cernan, Thomas P. Stafford and John W.Young blasted off aboard Apollo 10 on a mission to orbit the moon. In 1980, the Mount St.

Helens volcano in Washington state exploded, leaving 57 people dead or missing. Ten years ago: Pope John Paul II celebrated his 83rd birthday with an open-air Mass and requests for prayers so he could continue his papacy. Five years ago: President George W. Bush lectured the Arab world about everything from political repression to the denial of women’s rights in a speech at the Egyptian resort of Sharm El-Sheik.

Hagel orders review of sex-abuse prevention WASHINGTON (AP) — Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel on Friday ordered the military to recertify all 25,000 people involved in programs designed to prevent and respond to sexual assault, an acknowledgement that assaults have escalated beyond the Pentagon’s control. He said this step, which also applies to the military’s approximately 19,000 recruiters and must be completed by July 1, is one among many that will be taken to fix the problem of sexual abuse and sexual harassment within every branch of the military. At a news conference with Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Hagel said he believes alcohol use is “a very big factor” in many sexual assault and sexual harassment cases, but there are many pieces to the problem. He and Dempsey spoke one day after all of the military’s leadership were summoned to the White House to discuss the sexual assault problem with President Barack Obama, who has expressed impatience with the Pentagon’s failure to solve it. At his Pentagon news conference, Hagel said it has become clear to him since taking office in February that holding people accountable for their

Martin Dempsey, and the service secretaries, service chiefs and senior enlisted advisers to discuss sexual assault in the military in the Cabinet Room of the White House in Washington Thursday. actions is important, but simply firing people is not a solution. He said he gets a lot of advice on that. He said some ask him, “Well, why don’t you just fire some people?” He said his answer is, “Well, yeah, we could do that. And, you know, who are you going to fire?” Hagel signed a one-page memorandum addressed to the uniformed chiefs and civilian heads of each of the military services requiring that the credentials and qualifications of

all recruiters, sexual assault response coordinators and sexual assault victim advocates be reviewed to ensure that they meet current standards. They also will be given refresher training on professional ethics and the impact of violations. “I am concerned that this department may be nearing a stage where the frequency of this crime and the perception that there is tolerance of it could very well undermine our ability to effectively carry out the

mission, and to recruit and retain good people,” Hagel wrote. A catalyst for congressional outrage has been the disclosure in recent days of at least two cases in which a military member with responsibility for sexual assault prevention programs has himself been accused of sexual misconduct. Cases of sexual assault allegations against military recruiters also have arisen recently. Dempsey, who has been among the most outspoken

Pentagon official on this topic, called sexual assault in the military “a crime that demands accountability and consequences.” “As the president made clear to us yesterday, we can and must do more to change a culture that has become too complacent,” Dempsey said. “We have a serious problem that we must solve: aggressive sexual behavior that rips at the bond of trust that binds us together.” Earlier Friday, the Air Force’s top general said that sexual assaults in his branch of the military typically involve alcohol use and can be traced to a lack of respect for women. “We have a problem with respect for women that leads to many of the situations that result in sexual assault in our Air Force,” Gen. Mark Welsh told reporters in a lengthy interview in his Pentagon offices. Welsh said combatting the problem, which he characterized as a crisis, is his No. 1 priority as the Air Force chief of staff. He said he reviews every reported case of sexual assault; last year there were 792 in the Air Force. Welsh addressed criticism about his comment last week, in response to questions at a congressional hearing, that the problem can be explained in

part by a “hook-up mentality” in the wider society. Some said his remark implied that the blame rests mainly with victims. “If I had this to do over again, I would take more time to answer the question and not try to compress it,” he said, adding that his point was that every person who enters the Air Force needs to be instructed in “this idea of respect, inclusion, diversity and value of every individual.” “Now, I didn’t say it that way in the hearing, and I wish I had because I think it gave, especially victims, the opportunity for someone to interpret what I said as blaming the victims,” he said, adding that as a result, “I am sorry about that because there is nothing that is farther from the truth.” Obama said after Thursday’s meeting with the military leaders that he is determined to eliminate the “scourge” of sexual assault in the military, while cautioning that it will take a long and sustained effort by all military members. “There is no silver bullet to solving this problem,” Obama said. “We will not stop until we’ve seen this scourge, from what is the greatest military in the world, eliminated,” he told reporters.

U.S. slams Russian anti-ship missiles going to Syria WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration denounced Russia on Friday for providing Syrian President Bashar Assad’s regime with anti-ship missiles, saying the weapons would only worsen a war that Washington and Moscow have been promising to work together on stopping. Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, criticized what he called an “unfortunate decision that will embolden the regime and prolong the suf-

fering.” He spoke at a news conference after the New York Times reported that Russia recently delivered an advanced version of Yakhont anti-ship cruise missiles to Syria. “It’s ill-timed and very unfortunate,” Dempsey said. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel also urged Russia to rethink its military aid, saying that the U.S. and Russia both wanted to stabilize Syria after more than two years of civil war but that the Kremlin’s military sup-

port makes the situation even more dangerous. “What we don’t want to see happen, the Russians don’t want to see happen, is for Syria to erupt to the point where we may well find a regional war in the Middle East,” Hagel said. “So we continue to work with the Russians on their interests and everything we can do to convince the powers that are involved in the region to be careful with escalation of military options and equipment,” he said, adding that the U.S.

was planning for every military contingency. Dempsey’s comments, in particular, seemed to contradict that of the State Department, where spokeswoman Jen Psaki said earlier Friday that the U.S. was aware of no “new shipments” of the weapons. For the Obama administration, the anti-ship missiles are the second such worrying report in as many weeks at a time when Secretary of State John Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov say

they are coordinating closely to try to get Syria’s government and rebels into the start of a peace negotiation. They are hoping the talks begin next month in Geneva. Almost immediately after last week’s announcement by Kerry and Lavrov of a new peace push, Israeli officials warned that Moscow was preparing to give Assad state-of-the-art ground-to-air missile systems in the coming months. Both sets of missiles would only add to the administration’s reserva-

tions as it evaluates a range of options, including military ones, to break the stalemate in Syria’s civil war and respond to evidence that Assad’s forces used small amounts of chemical weapons in two attacks in March. Obama previously declared chemical weapons use his “red line” for a more forceful American intervention, though Kerry and other U.S. officials have since suggested that no such step would be taken while the new peace push still has hope.

ADVERTISING

Landing a Job in a Digital Era W

ith people updating their social networking pages from their PDAs and downloading favorite tunes from their mobile phones, it should come as no surprise society has grown increasingly reliant on technology. Individuals about to dive into the job-seeking market may have to rethink their search skills to maximize the potential of reaching employers and companies that likely embrace a digital mind set. As of June 2009, the U.S. unemployment rate reached 9.7 percent, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.This means there are a great deal of people — from the recently laid off to the newly graduated — who are all vying for the same jobs. Thinking creatively and exploring numerous ways of advertising oneself can help land a job in today’s market. Newspaper: The newspaper has long been a respected and effective means to find work. It is still a viable way to find jobs that are local without having to search through hundreds and hundreds of positions, which is common with online job posting sites. However, why not turn the tables and use the newspaper — and its respective online site — to advertise yourself? For a relatively low investment of time and money, you can place a classified ad that you are seeking work and briefly explain your credentials. Create a separate, free e-mail address with your favorite mail provider specifically for receiving inquiries to this advertisement. Personal Web site: Employers are short on time and many want to exert the least amount of energy possible when seeking job candidates. A personal Web page can put your information in the hands of employers in a concise and eye-catching way.The Web page can feature a brief description of yourself and also include a digital resume. Simply provide a link to your site when applying for a job. Remember, a personal Web site should be all business. Now is not the time for a pretty picture or stories about your pets. Employers are looking for skills. Be bold with buzzwords: Turn your experience into a list of buzzwords, keywords and important phrases when writing a resume. It used to be that verbs were the key to landing a job. Using strong action words should relay your experience. However, today resumes are frequently reviewed by a digital eye, rather than a human eye. This digital eye is programmed to recognize certain words and phrases that will sort your resume out from the others. Including the right keywords ensures your resume has a better chance of being picked. Use as many words as you can that were included in the original job posting — they’re likely to be programmed keywords. Most of these words are nouns that signal job titles, technical skills and levels of education or experience. Use social networking sites to your advantage: Employers and recruiters have admitted they frequently go to social networking sites, such as MySpace, Facebook and LinkedIn to “check up” on potential hires — or even employees they already have on staff. Many a person has compromised his or her chances for hire by questionable material posted on their pages. Instead of being a victim of the pitfalls of social networking, use it to your advantage. Seed your pages with information that may be interesting to a potential employer by doing a little research. For example, if you know a certain company to which you’d like to apply places significant emphasis on the environment, list the “green” functions you’ve attended and the groups to which you

Keeping up with the digital world could be the key to landing your next job. belong on your page. Know a hiring manager is an avid golfer? Talk about your passion for the game. It’s these little things that may get you in the door to an interview. Think differently: There are some people who want to take their job search to another level.With the market saturated by job seekers, sometimes it’s the person who has the nerve to stand out from the crowd that will land the job. Today it’s not uncommon to find door-todoor solicitation of jobs, people posting job requests on YouTube or similar sites, or even standing in a busy downtown area with a sign that says, “Looking for Work.” Others turn to popular blogs to get the word out. The more people who know you’re looking for work, the better chance you will find a position. Technology is technology: There are certain tips you should keep in mind when applying for jobs: - Scanners that look at resumes work well with these typefaces: Helvetica, Courier, Futura, Optima, Palatino, New Century Schoolbook, and Times. And they work best with type sizes in the 10to 14-point range. - Don’t send your resume as an attachment, or include any attachments, unless specified. There are always concerns about computer viruses and attachments can even get lost. Paste everything into the body of your e-mail. - Use the subject line of an e-mail as a theater marquee and sell yourself. - Use the proofreading/spell-check functions of your word processing software, but also print out your materials and read them over. There’s no excuse to be excluded from a job because of a silly typo. - Follow-up with all job applications. It could move your resume to the top of the pile.

Former Driver To Appear In Court A former NASCAR driver who led police on a highspeed chase through Nevada, Arizona and Utah has been ordered to appear in Utah state court next month. The (St. George) Spectrum reports a preliminary hearing is scheduled June 13 in 5th District Court for 33-year-old Timothy Tyler Andrew Walker and 30-year-old Raelle Hann McDonald. The couple from Hermosa Beach, Calif., was arrested in St. George Jan. 30 after a Nevada Highway Patrol trooper started chasing them in a BMW at speeds up to 150 mph. Both face drug charges after troopers say they found methamphetamine, marijuana and an open bottle of vodka in the car. Walker also is charged with failure to stop for police. NASCAR suspended Walker in 2007 for violating its substance abuse policy.

Edwards wins AllStar pole

Autopsy Planned An autopsy has been planned for the body of a NASCAR fan who went missing from a campground outside the Talladega Superspeedway, but investigators say they don’t suspect foul play in the man’s death. The body of 28-year-old Nicholas Bower, of Villa Rica, Ga., was found by an Etowah County Sheriff’s Office helicopter in the Choccolocco Creek Tuesday afternoon, Deputy Talladega County Coroner Larry Seals said. The site is near the campground where he was last seen May 4. “All his personal effects were still on him when he was found - his wallet, cellphone,” Talladega County Sheriff Jimmy Kilgore told AL.com. “There were no visible signs of trauma, nothing that would send up any red flags.”

Failed Tests NASCAR has suspended two crew members for failing random drug tests. One of the two suspensions issued Tuesday was to Lee Dodson, a mechanic on Clint Bowyer’s car. Michael Waltrip Racing fired Dodson upon learning he’d failed a drug test. The other suspension was issued to Frank Earnhardt, who NASCAR identified only as a crew member for a Nationwide Series team.

Kyle Busch, right, and crew members look over a tablet during practice for the NASCAR Sprint All-Star auto race at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord, N.C. Friday.

Almost payback time? Busch will understand if Kahne retaliates soon CONCORD, N.C. (AP) — Kyle Busch holds a 3-0 advantage over Kasey Kahne this season and understands Kahne may be planning some retaliation. In fact, he jokingly told Kahne he was ready for revenge. “I just told Kasey, don’t make it hurt too bad,” Busch said. Nobody knows when — or if — Kahne will issue a payback for the three incidents he’s had this season that all involved Busch. The latest came last Saturday night at Darlington Raceway when Kahne spun as the two were racing for the lead with 33 laps remaining. “Three times this year me and Kyle had contact and I had a chance — capable, winning cars — it’s disappointing on the points side and not winning some of these races,” Kahne said after the race. “Whether he hit me or just blew the air off, whatever it was, he blew his entry. I’m not sure what he was thinking on that.” Busch shrugged the Darlington incident off as hard racing in the closing laps of the race. But he admitted Friday at Charlotte Motor Speedway that incidents with Kahne in the season-opening Daytona 500 and two weeks ago at Talladega were mistakes on his part. The Daytona accident triggered a nine-car pileup, while the Talladega wreck collected 16 cars. “The first two instances were a mistake, just misjudgment,” Busch said. “Last week was just hard racing. Whether or not we touched, I think

that’s insignificant because I’m not racing to wreck Kasey Kahne, but Kasey Kahne did crash because of me so it’s a part of hard racing at the end of the race and I hate that it keeps being the same guy.” Busch confirmed he’s reached out to Kahne since Darlington, and it led to him joking about retaliation. But he’s not convinced it’s coming from Kahne, who isn’t known to be hottempered or vengeful on the race track. “I don’t think Kasey is that kind of guy,” he said. “But if it happens, I’ll understand.” If it does happen, Saturday night’s Sprint All-Star Race is the perfect stage for a showdown. The race is an exhibition only with a cool $1 million to the winner — track owner Bruton Smith has offered an additional $1 million bonus if the winning driver sweeps all five segments. With no points or championship implications on the line, Kahne retaliating would not harm Busch’s bid to make the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. Dale Earnhardt Jr., Kahne’s teammate at Hendrick Motorsports, didn’t understand why the All-Star Race would be the best place for payback. “What’s wrong with the other races?” Earnhardt asked. Jimmie Johnson has spoken to both drivers, and described both their moods as “frustrated” and said he could relate based on past incidents he’s had. “Kasey’s come out on the losing

end three times,” Johnson said of his teammate. “It’s not like Kyle has an issue; it’s just stuff. I had it with Kurt (Busch) and also Sterling Marlin in 2003-04. It’s no fun when it happens and you have a magnet for (another) car.” Once a driver starts to have repeated incidents with the same driver, it can be difficult to stop, Johnson said. “The way I’ve been able to break the cycle is you just have to consciously get away,” he said. “If it goes to the third time, it’s OK, if I see you coming I’m getting the hell out of the way. You have to try to make it stop that way.” Busch is frustrated beyond the incidents with Kahne. He led 265 of 367 laps at Darlington but a tire problem caused him to fade at the end and finish sixth. It was the 11th time Busch has led at least 200 laps in a Sprint Cup race, yet he’s only won four of those. “If you lead 260 whatever laps and don’t win, it’s a lost race, it’s gone, it means nothing. It is what it is,” Busch said. “On the flipside, if you can only lead one lap and lead the last one and win any race, I’d have that happen every single week. It’s all about taking home the trophy and the checkered flag, it’s not necessarily about how many laps you lead. “When you lead all those laps it shows that you’re good, you’re team’s good, you’re car’s good and everything else, but it just goes to show you how much bad luck (Busch) has.”

CONCORD, N.C. (AP) Carl Edwards captured the pole for the Sprint All-Star race at Charlotte Motor Speedway, paying tribute to the late Dick Trickle along the way. Edwards, the 2011 winner in the exhibition event, completed three laps and a four-tire pit stop Friday night in 1 minute, 51.297 seconds. Kurt Busch will start alongside Edwards on the front row Saturday night. Greg Biffle, Kyle Busch and Joe Logano round out the top five. Edwards had Trickle’s name written just above his window, a tribute to the 71year-old former NASCAR driver who died Thursday of what authorities said was a self-inflicted gunshot wound in Boger City, N.C. Edwards said many of his crew members are from Wisconsin, where Trickle grew up and became a famous short-track driver. “We felt like we needed to do something to honor him,” Edwards said. “I don’t know that I deserved to have his name above my window.” For the first time since 2000, NASCAR waived the pit-road speed limit, allowing drivers to enter and leave the pits at high rates of speed. “This was awesome,” Edwards said. “I vote that we do this at every race track.” Not all agreed. Judging the speed needed to stop in the pit stall threw off some drivers. Defending All-Star race champion Jimmie Johnson was among a handful of drivers who skidded past his pit stop when his breaks locked up. He was forced to back up, losing valuable time. “I didn’t have the car under control in the breaking zone,” said Johnson, who’ll start 18th. Kevin Harvick’s pit stop was even worse. He overshot his pit stall and didn’t back up far enough before his crew jumped the wall and began working on a tire change with his car still slightly over the line. His time was disallowed and he’ll start at the back of the field Saturday night. Dale Earnhardt Jr. was in second place after 16 cars but a loose lug nut cost him a 5-second penalty and dropped him out of the top 10. Tonight’s All-Star race encompasses 90 laps, including four 20-lap segments leading up to a final 10-lap shootout for $1 million.

Trickle remembered by NASCAR drivers as a mentor CONCORD, N.C. (AP) — Mark Martin received a piece of advice very early in his career from Dick Trickle that he’s never forgotten. “He was the one that told me, and this is kind of corny, but it isn’t when you’re 18 or 19 years old he told me ‘In order to finish first, first you must finish,’” Martin said. “That stuck with me always.” The NASCAR garage was full of Trickle stories on Friday, a day after the 71year-old racer died of an apparent self-inflicted gun-

shot wound. An old-school driver with an odd name, and a guy who earned an almost cult-like following among fans, Trickle was mostly remembered Friday for his role as a mentor to many drivers who went on to have far greater success in NASCAR than Trickle ever achieved. A short-track star from Wisconsin Rapids, Wis., Trickle was believed to have won up to 1,000 races while inspiring hundreds of racers throughout the Midwest. Among them was Hall of

Famer Rusty Wallace, a St. Louis native who toured the same Midwest circuit and raced Trickle down to the wire for the 1983 ASA championship. “When I was short-track racing, I would call him every Monday morning and he would always help me with race setups and stuff,” Wallace said. “He and I had such a good time telling little stories, but he was the guy that taught me almost everything in the (Midwestern) American Speed Association. And he

was the guy that I battled right to the end for my 1983 ASA championship. I barely beat the guy that taught me everything.” Martin said he, Wallace and the late Alan Kulwicki, a Wisconsin native, owed their success to Trickle. “We wouldn’t have been the racers that we were when we got here had we not come under his influence,” Martin said. “For the influence that he had on us, and the etiquette and the way he raced he raced us real hard on the race track,

but off the race track, he was very free with parts or advice. He gave freely. Really, really good dude. I’m confused and broken-hearted about what happened.” Audio released Friday by the Lincoln County (N.C.) emergency dispatch center revealed a calm Trickle stating his location in the Forest Lawn Cemetery, and telling the dispatcher where to find a ‘93 pickup truck. “There’s going to be a dead body. A suicide,” said the caller, who never identified himself as Trickle.

Dalton commits to Oklahoma BY DAVID FONG Executive Editor fong@tdnpublishing.com TROY — When offered everything he could ever possibly want, Alex Dalton saw no reason to let the recruiting process drag on any further. “Oklahoma really is the perfect fit for me,” said Dalton, a junior offensive lineman at Troy High School who verbally committed to play football at

TROY Oklahoma University in the fall of 2014. Dalton — who can’t officially sign a national letter of intent until February — will finish his senior season at Troy this fall. “I don’t want anything else. They’ve got everything I want. They’ve got great academics. They’ve got the major I want, which is construction science. They will give me a chance to

play in the NFL. They will give me a chance to get a job after college. They’ve got great football facilities and a great coaching staff. DALTON “I just thought, ‘Why should I wait any longer?’

Devils finish strong at CBC Boys, girls place 2nd Staff Reports After an up-and-down second day at the Central Buckeye Conference meet at Bellefontaine, the Tippecanoe boys and girls teams both finished second — and had a few conference champions to speak of, as well. The boys took second with 90 points. Springfield Shawnee won with 135, while Tecumseh was third with 82.5.

BELLEFONTAINE Sam Wharton had the big win on the day, cruising to a nearly six-second victory in the 800 in 1:56.84 — which was half a second off of the meet record time of 1:56.3, set in 1998. Another state veteran from last season, Grant Koch, won the 1,600 (4:25.7), while Mitchell Poynter was fifth (4:34.95). Koch also was sixth in the 400 (53.37 seconds). Andy Droesch — who was also fifth in the 110 hurdles (17.09 seconds) — won the high jump (6-4). Rick Andrews was second in the 3,200 (9:49.86), while Jay Schairbaum was fifth (10:21.55).

Flying high again Reds Troy boys, girls win GWOC North Staff Reports Troy’s Nathan Fleischer soared to new heights Friday at the Greater Western Ohio Conference All-Star meet. And that trend seemed to carry over with the rest of the Trojans, as well. Fleischer cleared 14-9 in the pole vault, tying the GWOC meet record, which was set by Butler’s Matt Curry back in 2005. The Troy boys won the GWOC North as a team with a score of 145 — which was finally finalized on Friday with the running of the 800 and 3,200 — and finished fourth in Friday’s GWOC AllCENTERVILLE Star meet with 57 points. “We won the GWOC North back-toback, and it’s been a long time since that has happened,” Troy coach Deon Metz said. “It was a big deal when we won it last year, now we’ve done it twice.” Devante Bush, Miles Hibbler, Nick Zimmer and Blake Williams won the 4x100 relay in a time of 43.06 seconds. Junior Rohsaun Wesson was the runnerup in the 400 (50.68 seconds). “That 4x100 team returned three guys from the state team last year,” Metz said. “Now we’re first in the GWOC. They are really running well, and that gives us a little momentum heading into next week. “(Rohsaun) has been here, but he’s really starting to run well now. He had been running in relays and in the 400

Reds rookie starter Tony Cingrani allowed three runs and five hits in five innings. The Reds had chances in the first two innings, but couldn’t get a key hit. Lee stranded five runners, striking out Cozart to leave the bases loaded in the second.

Kipnis HR gives Tribe win Crosby leads CLEVELAND (AP) — Jason Kipnis’ three-run homer in the 10th inning gave the Cleveland Indians a 6-3 win over the Seattle Mariners on Friday night. Kipnis’ home run came on an 0-1 pitch from Lucas Luetge and capped a twoout rally that began with a walk and an infield hit. The Indians have won 15 of 19 and are 10-2 at Progressive Field since April 30. Vinnie Pestano (1-0), activated from the disabled list before the game, worked around a one-out walk in the 10th. Drew Stubbs, who homered in the fifth, drew a walk off Luetge (0-1). Stubbs broke for second with a 1-2 count on Michael Bourn, and Luetge threw to first baseman Justin Smoak, but Stubbs beat the throw to shortstop Brendan Ryan. Bourn hit a slow roller past the mound and second

the sixth tied the game, and the bullpens on both sides took over. Chris Perez retired the side in order in the ninth. Perez, who has been nursing a stiff shoulder, was pitching for the first time since May 11. Pestano had

been on the DL since May 1 with a sore right elbow. Mariners relievers Charlie Furbush and Carter Capps combined to pitch 3 1-3 scoreless innings. Capps struck out Mark Reynolds to start the 10th. Luetge got Michael Brantley to ground out before running into trouble. Seattle lost for just the seventh time in 19 games. Ubaldo Jimenez allowed two runs and struck out a season-high nine in five innings. He was pulled after Smoak led off the sixth with a single. Rich Hill was brought in to face Ibanez, who homered to right on an 0-1 pitch to tie the game. Jimenez, who had won three consecutive starts, struck out five of the first seven batters he faced. Seattle rookie Brandon Maurer allowed three runs in six innings. The righthander matched a career high with six strikeouts.

Dalton said Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops and his staff plan on moving him from tackle to center. While Dalton has never played center before, he said Oklahoma told him they are confident he’ll be able to make the adjustment. “They are graduating nine offensive linemen in the next two years, so there’s a great chance I’ll get to play early. Playing for

someone like Coach Stoops will be more than a privelege. When I told Coach Bedenbaugh I was committing, he was excited. He told me he didn’t have to look for a center anymore.” Dalton also said that while Oklahoma isn’t exactly close, it isn’t too far away for his family to watch him play, either. “It’s about a 12-hour drive,” he said. “I mean, it’s

Pens past Senators, 4-3 PITTSBURGH (AP) — Sidney Crosby had his second career playoff hat trick and the Pittsburgh Penguins beat the Ottawa Senators 4-3 on Friday night to take a 2-0 lead in the Eastern Conference semifinals. Brenden Morrow added his first playoff goal in more than five years, Tomas Vokoun made 19 saves and the Penguins rode their superstar captain to their fourth straight victory. Crosby beat Craig Anderson three times in the game’s first 22 minutes, sending the goalie to the bench after stopping 18 of 21 shots. Kyle Turris, Colin Greening and Jean-Gabriel

Pageau scored for the Senators, but couldn’t stop Ottawa from falling into a deep hole against the Eastern Conference’s top seed. The Senators have never won a playoff series after dropping the first two games. Game 3 is Sunday in Ottawa. The Senators insisted they didn’t have to play a perfect game to hang with the Penguins, pointing to the way they controlled play at even strength for long stretches in a 4-1 loss in the series opener Tuesday night. Ottawa insisted if it could stay out of the penalty box and convert when it had the man advantage, it would be right there.

far, but it’s not California far. I think my parents will both be retired by next year and so they should be able to come to my games. My dad will be able to come down for practices and watch me. Plus, we play a couple of games back in the Midwest, so my Uncle Dave, my aunts and uncles and my cousins will be able to support me. “And really, if you go to

school and play a sport, you don’t have much time to come back home anyway. You are so busy, you don’t really have time to come home — and when you do, all you want to do is sleep. I’ll meet new people there. I just want to go somewhere where I can focus on my academics and playing football.” All of which made Oklahoma the perfect fit.

Dalton ■ CONTINUED FROM 15 was choosing Oklahoma, Dalton held offers from 24 Division I schools, including traditional powers Stanford, Michigan State, Nebraska, Penn State and West Virginia. “Everybody wanted him,” Troy football coach Scot Brewer said. “And really, why wouldn’t they? He’s got all the measurables the colleges want. He’s big, he’s

strong, he’s athletic and he moves well. Plus, he’s also got a lot of the intangibles programs are college always looking for. He’s a 4.0 student, he comes from a great family and he never gets in trouble. He’s been raised to do all the right things. He’s a kid that’s going to be successful in life, whether it’s football or whatever else. He’s got a great future ahead of him.”

Joel Rosario rides Orb during the 139th Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs May 4 in Louisville, Ky. standpoints.” Orb extended his winning streak to five with a thrilling victory in the Derby two weeks ago, when jockey Joel Rosario patiently guided the colt from 17th to first in the final half mile over a sloppy track. In the Preakness, Orb will break from the No. 1 post, a spot that has seen only one winner Tabasco Cat in 1994 since 1961. “Who knows how this race is going to go, but I don’t think it will be a problem,” Rosario said of the inside post. “He’s a horse that comes from behind, so I really don’t think it will affect him. I’m just excited to go into this with a horse who has a chance to win.”

A chance? While rival trainers aren’t conceding the race, most agree Orb is the best of the bunch. “Orb, he’s a freak. Right now, everybody should be rooting for Orb, except for the connections of the other horses in the race,” trainer Bob Baffert said and he’s got a horse in the race, 12-1 choice Govenor Charlie. “Anybody who’s not rooting for Orb, there’s something mentally wrong with them.” Baffert has been there before. Three of his five Preakness winners had also won the Derby, but were unable to complete the Triple Crown with a win in the Belmont. He says the Preakness is the least stress-

BALTIMORE (AP) — Everything’s a go for Orb. The Kentucky Derby winner was in a playful mood the day before the Preakness, making faces for photographers between nibbles of grass outside his stall at Pimlico Race Course. “He’s really settled in well. He seems to be energetic about what he’s doing so I couldn’t be more pleased,” trainer Shug McGaughey said on a warm and sunny Friday morning. “We’re excited about giving him a whirl to see if we can get it done and go on to the next step.” Getting it done would mean defeating eight rivals in the 1 3-16-mile Preakness to set up a Triple Crown try in the Belmont Stakes three weeks from Saturday. Orb is the even-money favorite, and there’s a growing feeling that this 3-year-old bay colt may be special enough to give thoroughbred racing its first Triple Crown champion since Affirmed in 1978. “We’d sure love to have that opportunity,” said McGaughey, seeming relaxed and confident. “Probably the racing world would love to see it, too. It brings a lot more attention to what we’re doing from all

ful of the three races. “There is absolutely no pressure, believe it or not because you’ve just won the Derby,” he said. “You’re flying high and everybody’s excited. You don’t think about it. The next one (the Belmont) is the pressure.” Getting to the next one may sound easy. It isn’t. Six of the past eight Derby winners did not win the Preakness, and McGaughey is well aware of the pitfalls. “There are a lot of ways you can lose. Freaky things can happen,” he said. “You hope he doesn’t get in any trouble, you hope he handles the track, you hope he handles the kickback of the dirt, you hope he handles the day. If he does all that, I would have to think it will take a pretty darn good horse to beat him.” Maybe it’s Goldencents, who did not take to the slop at Churchill Downs and finished 17th after winning the Santa Anita Derby in April. “Orb’s not like a one-race hit. All year long he’s been super impressive,” said Goldencents trainer Doug O’Neill, who won the Derby and Preakness last year with I’ll Have Another, only to scratch the colt the day before the Belmont because of a tendon injury. “But we’ve seen Goldencents do some brilliant things in the afternoon. If he does, I think he can beat him.”

Fairborn girl, but just couldn’t get her. Ashley ran her fastest time of the season, so you like to see that. Gracie actually had an asthma attack in the middle of the race and still was able to come through for us.” Huffman also placed fifth in the 100 (12.75). Rector took fifth in the high jump (4-11). Norris finished second overall in the long jump (16-6.75) and Rector placed sixth (1510.5). Huffman placed sixth in the 200 (26.27) and Norris got seventh in the event (26.32). Schmiedebusch placed second in the 300 hurdles. Her time of 45.85 seconds, however, broke the Troy High School record, which was set in 1991 by Zulaika Phillips (45.91). Schmiedebusch also got third in the 100 hurdles (15.62). “I think she’s got a shot at state in both,” said Snyder of Schmiedesch, who was part of the 4x200 relay team that reached state last season. “She didn’t get the start she wanted in the 100 tonight and still finished strong. She’s sitting at the top four (in the region) time-wise right now, so I think she has a good chance.” Troy’s 4x800 team (Sarah Adkins, Courtney Mazzulla, Caitlyn McMinn and McKenna Poling) placed seventh (10:29.17). Jessica Blakes placed seventh overall in the discus (93-5). In the pole vault, Mariah Sano set a new personal best (10-3) and finished third overall. Abby Brinkman placed sixth (93) in the event. McMinn placed second in the GWOC North in the (12:18.82) and 3,200 Cristina Dennison placed seventh in the event (12:50.28). Troy runs at the Division I district meet Wednesday in Piqua.

THE

Derby winner expected to win Preakness

■ CONTINUED FROM 15 this season, then all of a sudden, he comes up and gets second in the conference.” Troy Schultz finished eighth in the 1,600 (4:34.71), Hibbler placed eighth in the high jump (57). The Trojans had a pair of placers in the 3,200 as Jon Osman took third (9:33.85) and Branden Nosker finished sixth (9:43.58). In the North Division rankings, however, Osman was the winner and Nosker finished third in the 3,200. Williams placed fourth in the 200 (22.66). In the other field events, Seth Overla (144-8) and Alex Dalton (140-0) finished fourth and fifth in the discus. Dalton also placed fifth in the shot put (47-9.50). The Troy girls also won the North Division, finishing with a total of 183 points. The Trojans placed third in the GWOC AllStar meet (87 points). Wayne won with 106 and Centerville held off Troy for runner-up with 88 points. Troy’s 4x200 relay team of Shanelle Byrd, Gracie Huffman, Leah Michael and Catelyn Schmiedebush finished runner-up to Wayne, clocking in with a time of 1:44.58. Wayne won in a time of 1:43.95. Byrd, Sharice Hibbler, Michael and Todda Norris finished third in the 4x100 (50.02 seconds). Wayne’s team won it and set a new meet record in the process (49.22), while Xenia took second (49.97). Ashley Rector and Huffman finished neckand-neck in the 400, with Rector (58.02 seconds) edging Huffman (58.08) for second place. “That was awesome, they came out and got 14 big points for us,” Troy girls coach Kurt Snyder said. “They tried to fight off the
