Search for survivors ending 24 dead after tornado MOORE, Okla. (AP) — Helmeted rescue workers raced Tuesday to complete the search for survivors and the dead in the Oklahoma City suburb where a mammoth tornado destroyed countless homes, cleared lots down to bare red earth and claimed 24 lives, including those of nine children.

Scientists concluded the storm was a rare and extraordinarily powerful type of twister known as an EF5, ranking it at the top of the scale used to measure tornado strength. Those twisters are capable of lifting reinforced buildings off the ground, hurling cars like

Residents of Moore began returning to their homes a day after the tornado smashed some neighborhoods into jagged wood scraps and gnarled pieces of metal. In place of their houses, many families found only empty lots.

The Miami East Local School District received favorable fiscal news at its regular board of education meeting Monday.

According to treasurer Lisa Fahncke, the district has submitted paperwork to the Ohio Department of Education to be removed from the “Fiscal Caution” list.

“Overall, we’re looking a whole lot healthier than we did several years ago,” Fahncke said Tuesday

more than state estimates in the income tax collections for fiscal year 2013, said Fahncke.

In 2013, the district collected $2,912,426 in income tax which surpassed state estimates of $2,500,050. Fahncke also reported new Ohio casino revenue and an increase in kindergarten enrollment also boosted state unrestricted revenue for the year.

The district expects to carry-over a cash fund balance of $1,038,331 for 2013, up significantly from 2011 fiscal year’s balance

of just $65,032 in 2011 and adds to the $310,225 cash fund balance in fiscal year 2012.

Fahncke said the biennium budget from the state still is yet to be determined for the next two school years and is expected to be passed by June 30.

Therefore, Fahncke kept state aid projections flat and used 2012’s state aid foundation’s formula to account for the forecast’s state aid.

Fahncke said she projected general property

after the board meeting Monday. “We are still looking at every expenditure and continuing to be frugal with our dollars.”

Fahncke shared the district’s five-year forecast, which planned for “conservative estimates” for both revenues and expenditures through 2017.

According to the fiveyear forecast, total revenue from all sources is expected to be $12,101,050, with expenditures of $11,373,744 for fiscal year 2013.

Currently, the district has collected $362,426

A $10 permissive tax effective 2014 was passed at Monday’s council meeting to fund road repairs that city officials said could not be funded without additional revenue.

Council heard from several residents opposed to the $10-per-vehicle assessment, before deciding that the tax was in the best interest of the city.

During the citizen comments portion of council, Troy resident Jerry Rickard said he didn’t like the idea of residents being assessed an additional fee when the city, he said, did not plan properly. He cited a new swimming-pool slide as an example of irresponsible spending.

Other residents also voiced their opposition to the tax, but Director of Public Service and Safety Patrick Titterington countered that the city has been facing a budget shortfall due to state-wide budget cuts of about $1 million annually over the last couple years. Other factors playing into the need for an assessment include the rising costs of asphalt, harsh weather conditions that deteriorate roads and the cumulative effect of not having the finances to address the paving problem sooner.

Titterington said the city’s paving program has fallen short in funding or has not been funded at all since 2007.

“We should be spending $600,000 per year on the program but we’ve averaged $275,000 over the last seven years,” Titterington stated following the meeting.

The revenue acquired from the $10 tax assessment can be used only for the paving program.

At the meeting, councilman Tom Kendall had reminded residents that should the tax not be approved, the county could opt to impose an assessment tax on Troy residents instead, except this money

BUSINESS ROUNDUP BANGKOK (AP) — Asian stock markets were mostly higher Wednesday after investor confidence was boosted by a Federal Reserve official’s comments that the U.S. central bank should stick with its super-easy monetary policy.

Regional Fed chief James Bullard said in a speech Tuesday that the Fed should continue its monthly $85 billion in bond purchases, which drives down interest rates and thus encourages lending and spending, to help spur the U.S. economic recovery.

That helped put Wall Street back on positive footing Tuesday and hours later boosted Asian shares, since some of that easy money inevitably washes up in stocks.

Japan’s Nikkei 225 index rose 1.2 percent to 15,559.95. South Korea’s Kospi rose 0.6 percent to 1,992.12. Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 fell 0.3 percent to 5,163.20.

Benchmarks in Singapore, Taiwan and the Philippines rose.

Mainland Chinese shares were higher.

Trading in Hong Kong was temporarily suspended due to bad weather.

Later today, the Fed will release minutes from its most recent policy meeting, while Fed chairman Ben Bernanke will testify before Congress to discuss his outlook for the U.S. economy.

Analysts at Capital Economics said in an email commentary that Bernanke is expected to emphasize that “the Fed stands ready to quicken or slow the pace of its monthly asset purchases.”

could be used throughout the county, not just in Troy.

“My point is, whether we take it or not, the county could,” Kendall said, referring to the city of Troy.

“It doesn’t mean the citizens of Troy aren’t going to get a permissive tax.”

The $10 city permissive tax will be in addition to the $10 permissive tax for the county, which county commissioners passed last year. Both taxes will begin in 2014.

If council had not passed the assessment Monday night, the county could have opted in the future to add another $5 fee in addition to the $10 that will already be collected in 2014. Under state

law, the city and county cannot assess residents more than $20 per license plate.

Council also authorized a $30,900 loan to nonprofit Troy Community Works at 221-223 E. Main St., to fund repaving the parking lot. Combined with a loan of $144,300 approved last year, TCW will have a repayment period of 30 years.

The Troy Downtown Loan Committee had compromised with Don Willis of TCW on the loan repayment period. Committee members were hesitant to lengthen the term by five years to 32 and a half years and thus proposed a fiveyear extension as well.

TCW had approached the city again when potential business tenants voiced their concerns about the condition of the parking lot. Due to unforeseen costs, such as that to correct drainage issues, Willis stated that capital was not available to afford the parking lot. In addition, the TCW board had originally planned to patch the lot, but after the property was surveyed, they realized parts of the area had never been paved.

• CONTINUED FROM A1 After nearly 24 hours of searching,the fire chief said he was confident there were no more bodies or survivors in the rubble.

“I’m 98 percent sure we’re good,” Gary Bird said at a news conference with the governor, who had just completed an aerial tour of the disaster zone.

Authorities were so focused on the search effort that they had yet to establish the full scope of damage along the storm’s long, ruinous path.

They did not know how many homes were gone or how many families had been displaced. Emergency crews had trouble navigating devastated neighborhoods because there were no street signs left.

Some rescuers used smartphones or GPS devices to

guide them through areas with no recognizable landmarks.

The death toll was revised downward from 51 after the state medical examiner said some victims may have been counted twice in the confusion.

More than 200 people were treated at area hospitals.

By Tuesday afternoon, every damaged home had been searched at least once, Bird said. His goal was to conduct three searches of each building just to be certain there were no more bodies or survivors.

The fire chief was hopeful that could be completed before nightfall, but the work was being hampered by heavy rain. Crews also continued a brick-by-brick search of the rubble of a school that was blown apart with many children inside.

Fiscal • CONTINUED FROM A1 revenue with a 5.2 percent increase to allow for new construction in the district and the county’s triennial property evaluation update which was completed this year.

After Fahncke’s presentation, Board President Kevin Accurso said, “I hope things have turned in the right direction.”

The board also approved to seek bids for two new school uses through the district’s education purchase cooperative. Dr. Todd Rappold, superintendent, said the district has not bought a new bus in four years. Rappold said the district held off purchasing new schools buses while it sought a grant to obtain four propane-fuel buses through the EPA. Previous bids were obtained for $72,000 without accessories per bus, according to Fahncke.

The board approved the Ohio Teacher Evaluation System, which is based on the Ohio Board of Education’s model. Rappold said the policy has undergone numerous changes and a committee of teachers helped mold the policy over the course of a year. The

OTES model allowed each evaluation to have a rating of 1 (accomplished); 2 (proficient); 3 (developing) or 4 (ineffective). The rating also is based on 50 percent of both teacher performance and student growth measures.

Rappold said the policy will be reviewed each year. Each teacher has two formal observations each year. Rappold said principals will receive more training on June 1113 for student learning objectives for the OTES. More than 40 people have applied for the Miami East High School principal opening and the board of education has narrowed down the applicants to two candidates.

The Miami East Board of Education adjourned into executive session for more than an hour Monday to discuss personnel. Two candidates was been selected to replace Tim Williams as Miami East High School principal. He will retire on June 1 after 19 years of service in the district.

No official action was taken, but Superintendent Dr. Todd Rappold said a new high school principal should be appointed by June’s board meeting.

Rappold also reported that the Miami County Sheriff’s Office will complete road reports in a office supplied by the district. Miami County Sheriff ’s Officer road deputies will have a computer in the office in the high school by the entrance where officers can complete road reports at the school in exchange for indoor/outdoor walkthroughs of both facilities, Rappold said.

“It’s a positive relationship,” Rappold said. Rappold said the sheriff’s office will maintain the post throughout the summer as well.

The district approved a fiveyear contract with Upper Valley Medical Center to provide athletic training services for $1 per year.

Board president Kevin Accurso commended athletic trainer Annette Bair for her services as well as allowing high school students to assist her to gain more knowledge about the field of athletic training.

Rappold also said UVMC has helped the district form its concussion policy which has undergone numerous changes.

The board also approved a oneyear pilot of its revised dual enroll-

ment policy. The board approved the policy for students to have their college fees waived if the student earns a “B” or better in the class.

Students enrolled in the dual enrollment courses offered at Miami East High School earn credit while being taught by high school teachers who serve as adjunct personnel through the university.

Rappold said the district offers six classes in conjunction with Urbana University as well as Edison State Community College based on student enrollment.

Rappold said the dual enrollment courses are $75 per credit hour,classes being offered in English, math and sciences which are up to three credit hours per course. The district continues to offer post secondary option courses at local community colleges, but Rappold said the dual enrollment courses allow students to remain on campus and earn college credit at the same time.

The next scheduled board of education meeting is at 7 p.m. on Monday, June 17 in the high school lecture room.

Taylor said that TMCS staff have been exploring funding options, including asking local businesses and organizations for donations and applying for grants.

They have already increased participation fees, especially for nonresidents.

Council also discussed the impact the Affordable Care Act will soon have on the city.

The Affordable Care Act, which goes into effect September 2014, requires employers with 50 fulltime employees or more to offer affordable health insurance to to those employees who work an average of 30 hours or more a

week.

Many of the city’s part-time employees consistently work more than 30 hours a week, particularly those in the EMS and Fire Department, making them eligible for health insurance coverage under ACA. The city currently offers health insurance to all 72 full-time employees. Under ACA standards, the city would have to offer insurance to another 18 employees. The penalty for not offering health care to all eligible employees is $2,000 per employee.

The EMS department currently plans to hire additional part-time

employees to keep all part-time employees below the 30 hour minimum. Other affected departments will be reducing hours to keep employees below the minimum.

Council also authorized a contract with Monroe Township for the annual Independence Day fireworks and declared three city vehicles to be surplus property.

Two of those will be replaced by old police cruisers.

The total cost of this year’s fireworks show is $15,450, which the city and the township split. The city’s portion of the cost is $9,270 and the township will contribute $6,180.

Rent • CONTINUED FROM A1 community events and festivals.

“It’s an invaluable service that you provide. And it relieves the burden from us in a lot of respects,” Councilman Joe Gibson said.

Most of TMCS’ funding is generated by their .5-mill tax levy, which costs the average taxpayer about two cents a day. The TMCS budget is supplemented with donations from area businesses, clubs, and organizations.

Participation fees for the various programs also help to offset costs.

Sen. Beagle visits Hobart Institute For the Troy Daily News Workforce development was at the top of the list of discussion items during meetings that took place for Ohio Senator Bill Beagle’s visit to the Hobart Institute of Welding Technology. Senator Beagle is the chairman of the Senate Standing Committee on Workforce and Economic Development, a newly created panel.

“Without a proper workforce, companies won’t be able to expand in or relocate to Ohio,” Beagle said.

As part of his work on the committee, the senator co-sponsored Senate Bill 1 to create a revolving loan fund that will provide loans to Ohioans who need additional job training.

Included in those efforts are training programs offered by schools similar to Hobart Institute that have training designed to meet job-specific needs.

“Over the past few years, my work in the Statehouse has revolved almost exclusively around stabilizing Ohio’s economy and providing jobs to those who need them most,” Beagle said. “Senate Bill 1 is the next step in making that goal a reality.”

Beagle’s plan ensures

This relationship will help shape the curriculum in a way that prepares graduates for open job opportunities, thus facilitating quick job placement.

“This legislation is designed to address both the critical skills gap that persists within our workforce today, as well as the financial roadblocks that many prospective workers face when seeking to better their employment situation,” added Beagle.

“With the demand for welders being great,” explained Hobart Institute President André Odermatt.

“This is just one more way that our students can fund their education and obtain the training they need to be prepared for the workforce.”

In addition to participating in meetings with Hobart Institute administrators and staff, the senator toured the institute and the Hobart Gallery of Welding History with Odermatt and vice presidents Ron Scott and Scott Mazzulla. The tour helped the senator gain a better understanding of the techniques that go into the various arc welding processes as well as the role that welding and Hobart Institute has played in history.

Teachers credited with saving their students in Okla. tornado Stories recounted of them sheltering their pupils MOORE, Okla. (AP) — The principal’s voice came on over the intercom at Plaza Towers Elementary School: A severe storm was approaching and students were to go to the cafeteria and wait for their parents to pick them up.

But before all of the youngsters could get there, the tornado alarm sounded.

The plan changed quickly.

“All the teachers started screaming into the room and saying, ‘Get into the hallway! We don’t want you to die!’ and stuff like that,” said sixth-grader Phaedra Dunn. “We just took off running.”

In the moments that followed, some of the children at Plaza Towers Elementary would, in fact, die. At least seven were killed by the twister Monday afternoon. Others would crawl out of the rubble, bloodied and bruised, utterly terrified.

The tornado that devastated this Oklahoma City suburb of 56,000 people destroyed Plaza Towers and also slammed Briarwood Elementary, where all the children appear to have survived.

Students and parents recounted stories Tuesday of brave teachers who sheltered their pupils, in some cases by herding them into a closet and a restroom amid the fear and panic.

After the tornado alarm went off, students at Plaza Towers scrambled into the halls. But the halls some of which were within the view of windows did not appear safe enough.

Sixth-grader Antonio Clark said a teacher took him and as many other youngsters as possible and shoved them into the three-stall boys’ bathroom.

“We were all piled in on each other,” the 12-yearold said. Another teacher wrapped her arms around two students and held Antonio’s hand.

Hospitals treat hundreds after Oklahoma tornado OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Hospital officials say they’ve treated hundreds of patients, including dozens of children, since a tornado hit an Oklahoma City suburb.

About 60 patients remained hospitalized following Monday’s tornado, though some were expected to be released Tuesday.

Norman Regional Hospital spokeswoman Melissa Herron says 20 of the more than 100 patients her hospital treated remained hospitalized.

Spokeswoman Brooke Cayot (KAY’-ot) says about 20 of the 90 patients seen at Integris Southwest Medical Center also remained at the hospital.

OU Medical Center spokesman Scott Coppenbarger says his hospital has treated 93 people, including 59 children, since a round of storms Sunday. Twenty patients remained hospitalized Tuesday.

St. Anthony Hospital spokeswoman Sandra Payne says her hospital and affiliated facilities have seen 36 patients, including 14 children. All patients were being released or transferred.

“She saved their lives by putting them in a closet and holding their heads down,” Wheeler said.

Gabriel and the teacher whom Wheeler identified as Julie Simon had to dig their way out of the rubble.

The boy’s back was cut and bruised and gravel was embedded in his head, Wheeler said. It took nearly three hours for father and son to be reunited.

Other parents waited even longer, as they drove from one emergency shelter to another in search of their children.

At St. Andrews United Methodist Church, 15year-old Caitlin Ulrey waited about seven hours before her parents found her. Her high school had not been hit by the tornado. But her nerves were frayed.

“I was starting to panic and shake and have an anxiety attack,” Caitlin said.

ONLINE POLL

(WWW.TROYDAILYNEWS.COM)

Question: Should this year’s Troy Strawberry Festival have been held in downtown Troy or on the levee?

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

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP Orlando (Fla.) Sentinel on rein in pay and perks for Florida college presidents: Start with a six-figure base salary for state college presidents. Add five figures for their retirement, another five for deferred compensation and another five for housing.

In some cases, add another five figures for a vehicle and another five for major medical.

Throw in a host of "other compensation benefits" and pretty soon you're talking real money.

Too much, really, to be fair to students struggling to pay for a college education.

And too much for taxpayers.

These extravagant compensation packages for the presidents of Florida's state colleges, formerly known as community colleges, were revealed this month in a state audit. In handing out pay and perks, it looks like too many college boards of trustees approach the negotiating table with a blank check, rather than a posture of protecting the public purse.

Look no further than Edison State College in Fort Myers, where ex-president Kenneth Walker got $837,085 a year.

Gov. Rick Scott deserves credit for ordering the audit, which found presidential pay and benefits vary widely — from $144,000 at North Florida Community College to more than $630,000 at Miami-Dade College — often with no clear rationale.

Only eight of Florida's 28 state colleges tie their presidents' pay to performance.

The Florida Legislature passed a law in 2010 that limits pay for presidents to $225,000 a year from taxpayers. But the law allows trustees to supplement salaries with private funds, and the average president's compensation has swelled to $350,403.

Scott says he wants taxpayers to get the best return on our investment in higher education.

Now that he's pulled back the curtain on presidential perks, we encourage him to rein in the increases, set clear performance measures and restore public confidence that our dollars aren't simply going to support the lifestyles of the rich and famous.

The Anniston (Ala.) Star on sloppiness at the IRS : The controversy over the IRS applying extra scrutiny to tea party groups seeking nonprofit status is a teachable moment.

What precisely should be taught is a matter of perspective.

Tea Party members, already concerned about what they see as Big Brother government, are saying their fears are justified by the news that the IRS targeted them and other conservatives.

Republicans are doing their best to tie the scandal to President Barack Obama, suggesting that a president they frequently deride as incompetent has suddenly been revealed as an uber-competent Nixonian schemer who is pulling all the strings.

Conservatives are making it an opportunity to bash a favorite target, the Internal Revenue Service.

Members of Congress at a hearing on the matter late last week did what they do best — striking a disingenuous posture of outrage. They are shocked — shocked, mind you! — that the IRS would stoop to such a tactic and in response must play to the TV cameras.

Such is the state of our politics, and in this case things are likely to get worse before they get better. ...

ProPublica goes on to set up how government streamlining set in motion 15 years ago is a major contributor in how one ideology was singled out for close inspection.

Sloppiness and corner-cutting might be the best explanation at this stage.

Thus far, no investigation has yielded evidence of partisanship or a political order from higher up in the government. Republicans in Congress vow to look closer to see if political motivations are at the heart of the policy at the Cincinnati office.

Perhaps Congress and the president should examine the conditions that led to the most recent incident and seek out solutions to fix it.

As former IRS attorney Bryan Camp told ProPublica, "The story people are overlooking is: Congress is complaining about underpaid, overworked employees who are not adequately trained."

City should not sell park land To the Editor: I read recently in the Troy Daily News that the city’s public service and safety director, Patrick Titterington, is advertising bids to sell surplus park land.

Hey, wait a minute, Pat! You are not thinking of Troy’s future!

Troy is growing by leaps and bounds! What about all the new people who (if not aborted) are born after us who are alive today? We will be dead in 30 years.

The population of Troy will be doubled by then?

And WOW, good ol’ Pat sold all of the park land!

We will be left with maybe a park bench or two!

Awe, heck, why should I care about parks? Heck, I might be buried under the sold land!

DOONESBURY

Celebrities should be treated with respect Dr. Seuss once wrote: “A person’s a person, no matter how small.” I would like to extend that statement to, “A person’s a person, no matter how famous.”

For anyone who’s missed a few of my columns (shame, shame), I’m a huge fan of pop culture. You know those celebrities your 8-yearold niece adores and tabloids repeatedly pick apart? Yes, I’m fans of them. We’re talking Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, Taylor Swift and One Direction. You name it, chances are I have the entire album downloaded and several interviews clipped from magazines.

So it is with much regret that I a) missed the Billboard Music Awards on Sunday night and b) heard Justin Bieber was booed upon receiving the Milestone Award at said awards show. For those who also missed it, Bieber won the first-ever designation over finalists Bruno Mars and Taylor Swift. As a fan of them all, I was excited for Bieber but would have been fine with any winner.

Yes, I do understand why some people don’t like the Biebs, as he’s frequently nicknamed. He does seem a little full of himself and is

Natalie Knoth Troy Daily News Columnist the type of guy Americans love to hate — or, more accurately, I think — hate to love. But booing him?

Come on now, people.

In his acceptance speech, Bieber said, “I’m 19 years old. I think I’m doing a pretty good job.

From my heart, I really just want to say it should be about the music, about the craft. This is not gimmick. I’m an artist and I should be taken seriously.”

Amen to that. I realize that fame-hungry celebrities, perhaps including Bieber, enjoy the added attention that comes with revelations from their personal life. But I don’t think that gives the public permission to outright disrespect them. Plus, lest we forget, no one actually really truly knows these famous people, except their closet

— Ronald K. Quillen Sr. Troy

friends, family and confidants.

I suppose I am a hypocrite, though, in that I think it’s perfectly acceptable to devour tabloid magazines while also claiming that celebrities have the same right to privacy as anyone else.

Yes, it comes with being rich and famous, but I think ethically we should afford celebrities the same respect as we do ordinary people.

Perhaps I took too m any psychology, philosophy and psychology courses in college, but I think we as a society need to be careful how we perceive each and every one in society — celebrities included — because we don’t know what they’re going through. “Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle,” as Plato (reportedly) said. Especially for celebs like Bieber and Swift, who are constantly ridiculed their bodies and relationships, you have to wonder how their self-esteem is holding up. They undergo more scrutiny in one day than I ever will in my entire lifetime.

Sure, they have lots of money, personal trainers, hair stylists, designer clothing and, oh, did I mention money? But I’m also guessing they feel horribly con-

fused, alone, embarrassed, slighted and devastated sometimes, too.

Just look at Amanda Bynes.

She appears to be going through some tough times lately, though like I said earlier, everything we know about her can only be gleaned from the media. But regardless, why do we find it laughable when celebs seem to be going through a rough patch?

(Think Britney Spears a few years ago, too.) Could it be that we find it comforting that people who seem to have it all may actually be facing bigger issues than our own?

Not to mention, are we that insecure that we must mock how someone looks in a bathing suit (Kim Kardashian) or the dating history of an accomplished singer (Taylor Swift)?

I’m not sure what the motivation is. But what I do know is that booing, deriding or mocking said person — famous or not — is never acceptable.

Now excuse me while I go check out the latest Bieber news on People.com.

Council discusses upcoming events

BY AMY MAXWELL For Civitas Media tdneditorial@civitasmedia.com The Covington Village Council met on Monday evening and discussed upcoming events taking place in the village. Mayor Ed McCord delivered the mayor’s report and reminded council of the upcoming Memorial Day Parade, happening on Monday, May 27 at 1 p.m.

Village Administrator Mike Busse also reminded everyone of the village’s designated garage sale days of May 31 and June 1. Also, village clean-up days are scheduled for June 3, 4 and 5.

Village employees will be picking up extra items that are set out by village residents with their regular trash. This will be at no additional charge to residents for most items that are set out.

During the administrator’s report, Busse brought

COVINGTON a new ordinance before council to be reviewed before it will be voted on.

“Planning and Zoning is recommending to Council that we pass an ordinance prohibiting the burial of construction, demolition and grubbing materials onsite in the village as well as prohibiting improper disposal of hazardous material,” Busse said. “For example, if you tear a deck off the back of your house, we don’t really want people to dig a big hole in their backyard and pile that stuff in and bury it. We really want them to take it to the landfill and the solid waste disposal site.”

Busse informed council of the plans for work to begin on the 2013 Sidewalk Program by M & T in the first week of June and should be complete by July 1. There are also four monthly mosquito sprayings scheduled to begin

this week done by Bug A Boo Inc. The monthly sprayings will take place in May, June, July and August.

Council was also reminded of the upcoming Ohio Bicycle Great Adventure, or GOBA, event that will be passing through Covington on Tuesday June 18 on their 25th Reunion Tour. “GOBA is a weeklong bicycle trip and they are coming through here on the morning of the 18th and they are stopping at the middle school,” McCord said. “We have received a donation of $3,600 from the Community Chest to cover the cost of purchasing Covington lapel pins as it is a tradition to distribute the pins to the participating riders at the stops along their route. We greatly appreciated their donation for the pins and it will help promote Covington as a great place to visit and live.”

Chuck Cox, left, motions as he describes the search for his missing daughter as he stands with attorney Anne Bremner during a news conference Tuesday in Seattle.

Lawyer: Feds investigating the Susan Powell case that theory in court.

Last year, as the investigation continued, Josh Powell killed himself and his two young sons in an explosive house fire, leaving nearly all of his life insurance proceeds to his brother, Michael, who later jumped to his death from a parking garage in Minnesota.

Bremner, who was joined at the news conference by Chuck Cox, Susan Powell’s father, said the federal probe is looking at what Josh Powell’s father, Steve, knew about his daughter-in-law’s disappearance.

West Valley City Deputy Police Chief Mike Powell said he believed Bremner was mistaken.

He said he wasn’t immediately aware of any ongoing federal investigation but would look into it.

“We have made it clear

we worked closely with our law enforcement counterparts across 11 states,” Powell said.

Bremner said she was informed of the ongoing investigation and its general scope by a federal agency, but she declined to say which. The FBI office in Salt Lake City declined to comment on her remarks.

Steve Powell had a sexual obsession with Susan Powell and thoroughly documented it in journals seized by police. He is currently serving a prison sentence after being convicted of voyeurism charges for secretly recording young neighbor girls.

Utah police said Monday that they do not believe he was directly involved with Susan Powell’s disappearance but may know more about it than he has let on.

Both Bremner and Cox disputed the notion that prosecutors in Utah never had enough evidence to prosecute Josh Powell.

WEST VALLEY CITY, Utah (AP) — The lawyer for the family of missing Utah woman Susan Powell said Tuesday that there’s an ongoing federal investigation into her disappearance, but POWELL the FBI declined to comment on that and police in Utah said they didn’t know anything about it.

Anne Bremner made the announcement at a Seattle news conference a day after local officials in Utah said they had closed their investigation into the Susan Powell case.

“This is not over,” Bremner said.

Newly released police records show that Utah officials believe Josh Powell likely killed his wife in late 2009, and that his brother, Michael Powell, helped dispose of the body, but authorities felt they didn’t have enough evidence to prove

Arias asks jury to give her life please don’t do that to them.

I’ve already hurt them so badly, along with so many other people,” she said. “I want everyone’s healing to begin, and I want everyone’s pain to stop.”

Arias admitted killing boyfriend Travis Alexander and said it was the “worst thing” she had ever done.

But she stuck to her story that the brutal attack which included stabbing and slashing Alexander nearly 30 times, shooting him in the head and nearly decapitating him was her defense against abuse.

“To this day, I can hardly believe I was capable of such violence. But I know that I was,” she said. “And for that, I’m going to be sorry for the rest of my life.”

Her testimony came a

day after her attorneys asked to be removed from the case, saying the fivemonth trial had become a witch hunt that prompted death threats against a key witness in the penalty phase.

They also argued for a mistrial. The judge denied both requests.

Arias acknowledged the pain and suffering she caused Alexander’s family, and said she hoped her conviction brought them peace.

“I loved Travis, and I looked up to him,” Arias said.

“It’s never been my intention to throw mud on Travis’ name,” she said, adding she had hoped to reach a deal with prosecutors before the case ever went to trial.

“I was willing to go quietly into the night,” Arias said.

The jury paid close attention to Arias as she spoke, their gaze turning to the large screen behind her as she ticked through family photos and explained the stories behind each image.

Arias retained her composure throughout much of her

“At one point, he was the world to me. This is the worst mistake of my life. It’s the worst thing I’ve ever done.”

She said she considered suicide after Alexander’s death but didn’t kill herself because of her love for her own family.

Arias said she regretted that details of her sex life with Alexander came out during the trial, and described a recorded phone sex call played in open court as “that awful tape.”

statement, pausing occasionally as she apparently cried, but no tears were visible.

Alexander’s family showed little emotion as Arias’ mother, father and sister looked on from the other side of the gallery and cried.

After Arias finished speaking, the judge told jurors they can consider a handful of factors when deciding her sentence, including the fact that Arias has no previous criminal record.

You can have relief from Neuropathy.

Some of the most difficult cases we care for involve Peripheral Neuropathy. This condition causes damage to the nerves of the legs and feet, and result in ongoing pain, numbmess, swelling or burning that often grows worse overtime.

Finally, there is an effective treatment for the symptoms of Peripheral Neuropathy that is safe, doesn’t involve drugs and is providing lasting relief for many people. Now there is hope for people, who until today, simply had to live with this terrible pain.

PHOENIX (AP) — Jodi Arias begged jurors Tuesday to give her life in prison, saying she “lacked perspective” when she told a local reporter in an interview that she preferred execution to spending the rest of her days in jail.

Standing confidently but at ARIAS times her voice breaking, Arias told the same eight men and four women who found her guilty of first-degree murder that she planned to use her time in prison to bring about positive changes, including donating her hair to be made into wigs for cancer victims, helping establish prison recycling programs and designing Tshirts that would raise money for victims of domestic abuse.

She also said she could run book clubs and teach classes to prisoners to “stimulate conversations of a higher nature.”

Arias became emotional as she played a slideshow of pictures from her photo album for the jury. The images included family portraits, pictures of her and friends and boyfriends and young relatives she has met only from behind bars.

Arias concluded her statement by pleading that jurors not give her the death penalty for the sake of her family.

“I’m asking you to please,

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Urge son and wife to get back into counseling Dear Annie: My wife and I are caught up in our son's dysfunctional marriage. "Martin" and his wife have three children together, and he has an older child from a previous marriage. All of the children are wonderful. They do well in school. But their mom and dad hate each other, drink too much and fight constantly.

Martin was recently fired after several incidents at work, some of them physical. They lost their home and now rent.

They each accuse the other of being crazy and stupid. One sleeps constantly. They do not communicate in any way. They have given up hope of ever being happy or ever achieving anything.

We listen to them and can't decide who is right or wrong.

We think they are both at fault, but we have no idea how to help them. Divorce is out of the question. They've been to counseling and thought it was a joke. We're getting too old for this. — Usually Have an Answer Dear Usually: There is no definitive "right" or "wrong."

Your son and his wife have an alcohol problem and other issues that they are not addressing. No one should endure such an unhappy life if things can be done to make it better.

Please urge them to go back to counseling for their children's sake. If they didn't like the first counselor, they can look for someone who is a better fit. They can go separately or together. They also should look for a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous, and the kids can check out Alateen (al-anon.alateen.org).

In the meantime, please offer to take those children into your home as often as possible so they have some semblance of stability.

Dear Annie: My widowed mother is 79 years old and has been diagnosed with mild dementia that is getting progressively worse. She lives alone, and I am 10 minutes away.

Here's my question: What is the best way to care for my mother? When will I know the time is right to place her in a nursing home? What kind of facility is best? I have a sister, but she has nothing to do with me. I feel alone and naive about Mom's care. Do you have any suggestions? — Doing It Myself Dear Doing: A lot of this is dictated by finances. Can your mother afford round-the-clock care in her own home? That is often the kindest solution. Is there an affordable CCRC (Continuing Care Retirement Community) that offers independent living, followed by assisted living, followed by nursing home care as needed?

You can contact the Eldercare Locator (eldercare.gov) at 1800-677-1116 to find resources in your area. Or, if you can afford it, you can get help navigating your options by hiring a private care manager through the National Association of Professional Geriatric Care Managers at caremanager.org.

Dear Annie: My heart goes out to "A Regretful Grandma," who grieves her grandchild aborted 40 years ago. Your advice to seek grief counseling was excellent, but many counselors are not trained or sensitive to this particular kind of grief.

I would like to let Regretful Grandma and others know about the National Office of Post-Abortion Reconciliation and Healing (noparh.org) at 1800-5WE-CARE. They offer both secular and religious resources and referrals, and their website has a page just for grandparents. — Reader in Baton Rouge Dear Baton: Many readers wrote to us with referrals, many to Rachel's Vineyard, and most of which are religious in nature. Thank you for helping.

SUDOKU PUZZLE

Barbra Streisand to Seth MacFarlane receive honorary won’t return as PhD in Israel 2014 Oscar host JERUSALEM (AP) — A leading Israeli university says it will present singer Barbra Streisand with an honorary Ph.D. when she visits Israel next month.

The Hebrew University of Jerusalem said Monday it was granting the singer the degree because of her concern for human rights and dedication to Israel and the Jewish people.

Streisand, 71, is expected to perform at a June conference in honor of the 90th birthday of Israeli President Shimon Peres.

She will also appear in two public concerts. It will be the first time the Jewish singer performs in Israel.

The university’s school of Jewish studies, established in 1984, is named after Streisand’s father, Emanuel.

Streisand also holds an honorary doctorate in Arts and Humanities from Brandeis University in the U.S.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Seth MacFarlane is too busy to host the Oscars in 2014.

The multitalented comedian says on Twitter that he “tried to make it work schedule-wise, but I need sleep.”

MacFarlane said in his tweet Monday that Academy Awards producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron are among the best in the business.

Zadan and Meron produced this year’s Oscar show, which earned higher ratings among coveted younger viewers, and will be returning for the 2014 telecast.

MacFarlane earned mixed reviews for his first outing as Oscar host in February, with some finding his material sexist and anti-Semitic.

The creator of “Family Guy” suggested Oscar producers tap the eccentric actor Joaquin Phoenix to host the show.

MONDAY’S SOLUTION:

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Here are some hints to get grilling season going Dear Readers: With Memorial Day weekend just days away, it’s time to get the outdoor grill ready.

Here are some hints to start off the season right: • Remove all grates, clean with soap and water, and rinse well.

• Check all the parts of the grill: the burner, gas tubes and lava rocks (if used). Make sure there are no bugs (they love to hide in the little spaces), grease or dirt in the line to prevent gas from coming through the lines or out of the burners.

• Wipe down the entire grill, inside and out, with soap and water. Rinse and let dry.

• Clean out any old grease from the collection pans or ashes that have accumulated.

Hints from Heloise Columnist • Make sure the grill is set up away from the house and is not near any bushes or overhanging trees.— Heloise P.S.: Your garage is not the place to grill, either. Just imagine if there was a mishap and a fire started! This same advice applies to turkey fryers, too!

PASTRY BLENDER Dear Heloise: Is a pastry

blender really a necessary tool to have when making pastry dough?

— Joanne in Colorado Some would say “Yes!” The pastry blender is a baking tool that’s worth investing in. This tool, usually stainless steel, has a smooth, rounded handle, with curved wires creating a half-moon shape. The wires cut the shortening or butter evenly and quickly into the flour.

Use a pastry blender to blend the two ingredients before the butter or shortening starts to warm up and melt. It is bigger pieces of butter or shortening inside the dough that creates a flaky crust once it is baked. — Heloise BURNT BEANS Dear Heloise: A couple of

weeks ago, I attempted to boil some baby lima beans, but unfortunately I let them boil dry and then burn. The bottom of my cooking pot looked beyond cleaning. I remembered that I had your book “Heloise From A to Z.” I found the following hint for pots and pans: “Cleaning aluminum: Put about 3 tablespoons of cream of tartar and about 1 quart of water in the gunky pot.

Bring the mixture to a boil, and let it continue to boil for about 10 minutes. Wash and rinse the pot well.” Worked perfectly! Thanks, Heloise. — Emilie P. in Arkansas You’re welcome, and thank you for the nice words about my book!

— Hugs, Heloise

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Wednesday, May 22, the 142nd day of 2013.

There are 223 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On May 22, 1913, the American Cancer Society was founded in New York by a group of doctors and business leaders under its original name, the American Society for the Control of Cancer.

On this date: In 1860, the United States

and Japan exchanged ratifications of the Treaty of Amity and Commerce during a ceremony in Washington.

In 1969, the lunar module of Apollo 10, with Thomas P. Stafford and Eugene Cernan aboard, flew to within nine miles of the moon’s surface in a dress rehearsal for the first lunar landing.

In 1992, after a reign lasting nearly 30 years, Johnny Carson hosted NBC’s “Tonight Show” for the last time.

Five years ago: A Texas appeals court said the state had no right to take more than 400 children from a polygamist group’s ranch the previous month. (The children were returned to their parents.)

Britain’s Conservative Party won a special election that was viewed as a rebuke to Prime Minister and Labour Party leader Gordon Brown. Indiana Jones returned to the big screen in “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.”

Face-chewing victim still Poll: Teens recovering, playing guitar migrating

MIAMI (AP) — A homeless man whose face was mostly chewed off in a bizarre attack last year appeared Tuesday to be mostly at peace with his disfigurement, strumming a guitar, making jokes and thanking people for their donations to help pay for his care.

Ronald Poppo doesn’t like to leave his hospital room, though, and he won’t allow anyone to visit him, other than Poppo’s his doctors video: and nurses.www.youtube “My face,” he .com/watch? says. v(equals)byV Poppo lost ewbZYqhA. his left eye, his nose and most of the surrounding skin when a naked man attacked him for no reason alongside a Miami highway a year ago.

In a video posted online Tuesday by the hospital caring for him, his left eye socket is a hollow shadow, his blinded right eye is covered by a skin graft and his nose is reduced to just the nostrils. Still, Poppo joked with his nurses and, though he wears a baseball cap, leaves his face uncovered to address the camera.

“People in my predicament need to be helped out, and I’m sure there’s other people also that have the same type of predicament.

I thank the outpouring of people in the community, I’ll always be grateful for that,” Poppo said in the brief video, which was shot recently.

He spent nearly a month in the hospital after the attack, before moving to a long-term care facility.

His doctors at Jackson Memorial Hospital and the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine praised Poppo for his resilience and said he’s satisfied with the surgeries and skin grafts that have closed his wounds.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Twitter is booming as a social media destination for teenagers who complain about too many adults and too much drama on Facebook, according to a new study published Tuesday about online behavior. It said teens are sharing more personal information about themselves even as they try to protect their online reputations.

Teens told researchers there were too many adults on Facebook and too much sharing of teenage angst and inane details like what a friend ate for dinner.

“The key is that there are fewer adults, fewer parents and just simply less complexity,” said Amanda Lenhart of the Pew Research Center, one of the study’s authors. “They still have their Facebook profiles, but they spend less time on them and move to places like Twitter, Instagram and Tumblr.”

In the poll, 94 percent of teens who are social media users have a profile on Facebook flat from the previous year. Twenty-six percent of teen social media users were on Twitter.

That’s more than double the figure in 2011 of 12 percent.

“Facebook just really seems to have more drama,” said 16-year-old Jaime Esquivel, a junior at C.D. Hylton High School in Woodbridge, Va., in an interview.

Esquivel said he still checks his Facebook account daily but isn’t using it as regularly as in the past. He sees teens complaining on Twitter, too, so Esquivel has been using the photo-sharing service Instagram more often, post-

ing a couple of pictures each day and communicating with friends. Facebook purchased Instagram last year.

In what may be a concern to parents, more than 60 percent of the teens with Twitter accounts said their tweets were public, meaning anyone on Twitter friend, foe or stranger can see what they write and publish. About one-quarter of kids said their tweets were private and 12 percent said they did not know whether their tweets were public or private.

Teens are also sharing much more than in the past.

More than 90 percent of teen social media users said they have posted a picture of themselves up from 79 percent in 2006, the poll said. Seven in ten disclose the city or town where they live, up from about 60 percent over the same time period. And 20 percent disclose their cell phone number up sharply from a mere two percent in 2006.

Even so, Parry Aftab, an attorney and online child safety advocate, says kids seem to be exercising more caution about their posts.

“They are sharing. This is their life,” Aftab said in an interview. “But they tend to be sharing personal stuff far better than they ever did before.”

The poll suggested teens are also taking steps to protect their reputations and mask information they don’t want others to see.

For example, nearly 60 percent of teen social media users said they have deleted or edited something that they had published. Just over half the teens have deleted comments from others on their profile or account.

Vikings win sectional title, 7-4 Staff Reports

MIAMI COUNTY

BROOKVILLE —A lot of teams feel like they have to be playing flawless softball at this point in the season.

The way Miami East hit the ball Monday, it could afford a couple of mistakes.

The Vikings (21-6) doled out 15 hits and posted six runs in the third inning during the Division III sectional title game Monday at Brookville, holding on from there to knock off Versailles 7-4 and advance to Saturday’s district final.

“We came out and hit the ball well, especially in the third inning to break it open,” Miami East coach Brian Kadel said. “We played pretty good defense for most of the game (three errors), but we didn’t let them take advantage of many of our mistakes. We just battled.

“It wasn’t perfect, but at this point in the season, it doesn’t have to be. You’ve just got to find ways to win, and that’s what we did.”

Coming of age Young Indians come up big, win sectional title

BY JOSH BROWN Sports Editor jbrown@civitasmedia.com When Becca Carpenter sent a shot towards right field with the tying run on third base and two outs in the bottom of the sixth, Newton pitcher Kirsten Burden had little time to think about what was going on.

Second baseman Madison Mollette had even less.

“I just knew that I had to get it,” Mollette said.

BY BEN ROBINSON Sports Writer A seven-run second inning got Covington rolling in a 12-2, fiveinning run-rule victory over Russia in the sectional final at Tipp City on Tuesday.

The victory advances the Buccaneers to their fourth straight district final on Saturday at Brookville, where they look for a third straight district championship. Standing in the way is Franklin Monroe, who knocked off Tri-Village 9-8 in 12 innings at Newton High School.

BRANDT The freshman leapt up, fully extended her arm and snared the line drive, ending the threat and keeping the Indians ahead by one run. As clutch as the play was, it was also one of many that the young Newton defense made as the Indians continued to come of age, hanging on for a 2-1 victory over Southeastern in the Division IV sectional title game Tuesday at Bethel High school.

Once the play was over, though, Burden had plenty of time to think about what had happened.

“I was just glad (Mollette) has hops,” she said with a laugh.

“We just keep getting better,”

“We’re playing hard and staying focused,” Covington coach Dean Denlinger said. “It’s one game at a time.”

Covington had run-ruled Russia twice during the season in a doubleheader, but the Raiders made things interesting early by recording outs on Covington’s first three batters — one a pick-off at second on an attempted steal by Jessie Shilt.

“Russia played a good game and I’d like to give them credit for that,” Denlinger said. “They played solid defense.”

But Covington just had too much offensive firepower and broke through in the bottom of the second inning for seven runs.

“That was huge,” Denlinger said. “We did a good job of staying back on off-speed pitches. We hit the ball hard today. Even our outs were hit hard.”

DAYTON

Bethel’s Maddie Ellerbrock had a big night Tuesday.

Which set the junior up for a potentially-bigger Saturday.

Ellerbrock qualified for the finals in all three of her preliminary races Tuesday at the Division II district meet at Welcome Stadium as the Bee girls and boys performed well

— and may be in line for a solid number of regional qualifiers.

Ellerbrock was third in the 200 (28.26 seconds), was third in the 4x100 relay (54.64 seconds) along with Lytia Hart, Courtney Golden and Ashlyn Bird, and she was fifth in the 100 (14.10 seconds).

“Maddie probably ran the best I’ve ever seen her run in her life,” Bethel girls coach Steve Pytel said. “She had a lot of confidence and looked like she wanted to be the great track athlete she can be.”

Jill Callaham (55.77 seconds) and Courtney Schmidt (57.33 seconds) were seventh and eighth in the 300 hurdles.

Jason Clendening was fourth in the 110 hurdles (18.18 seconds) and fourth in the 300 hurdles (45.26 seconds). Derrick Diddle was fourth in the 400 (55.55 seconds). Andrew Hurst was second in the 800 (2:09.87) and eighth in the 100 (12.37 seconds). Eric Landes was fourth

Bruins take 3-0 series lead over N.Y. Rangers NEW YORK (AP) — Daniel Paille snapped a tie with 3:31 left in the third period, and the Boston Bruins put the New York Rangers on the brink of elimination with a 2-1 victory in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinal series on Tuesday night.

Boston leads the best-ofseven series 3-0 and can advance to the conference finals as early as Thursday

at Madison Square Garden.

Only three teams in NHL history have rallied from an 0-3 hole to advance.

The Bruins trailed 1-0 heading into the third, but defenseman Johnny Boychuk tied it at 3:10 of the period with his fourth of the playoffs. The Rangers hadn’t lost in regulation when leading after two periods since Feb. 4, 2010.

Boston thought it had

grabbed the lead seconds before Paille actually scored when a shot deflected off the mask of Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist, popped up in the air and landed on the goal line. Lundqvist couldn’t find it before Paille swooped in from behind the net and poked in the puck.

Taylor Pyatt had made it 1-0 in the second period for the Rangers, who were outscored 8-4 in two losses

at Boston to begin the series. New York had won nine straight games at home, including three in the playoffs against Washington in the first round.

Lundqvist was sharp until the third period and finished with 32 saves.

Tuukka Rask stopped 23 shots in the win.

The Rangers again failed to get their power play

untracked, failing in both of their chances and dropping to 0-for-10 in the series.

New York has only two power-play goals in 38 opportunities during these playoffs.

Despite being outshot 14-5 in the second period, the Rangers carried a 1-0 lead into the third.

Boychuk was credited with the tying goal after the puck appeared to deflect

into the net off Rangers defenseman John Moore. game turned The rougher moments later when New York forward Chris Kreider was struck under his visor by the stick of Boston’s Tyler Seguin, who was following through on a shot just inside the blue line. Seguin was then clipped in the exchange by the stick of Rangers defenseman Steve Eminger.

Cavs get 1st pick in draft

Reds cash in on error

NEW YORK (AP) — What’s not to like? Being in the lottery every year.

Nick Gilbert expects the Cleveland Cavaliers are through with it, and if so he sent them out a winner again.

The Cavaliers and their owner’s son beat the odds for the second time in three years, winning the lottery Tuesday night to give them the No. 1 pick for the June 27 NBA draft.

Two years after charming viewers by responding to a question about being on stage by saying: “What’s not to like?” the bowtiewearing son of Dan Gilbert wore a stern look before this one. He said he expected he was done coming here and that he believed the Cavs would be in the playoffs next season.

Then they got a great jump on that goal, earning the first pick even though they had only the thirdbest odds to do so.

And 16-year-old Nick Gilbert delivered it, just as he did in 2011, when the Cavs used the pick to take eventual Rookie of the Year Kyrie Irving.

“Kyrie is a hell of a player … but this also felt almost as good,” Nick Gilbert said. “That was the first time. This is the second time, but man does it feel good to get the first pick this last time. Get that last player to give us a push.”

The Orlando Magic fell back one spot to No. 2, while the Washington Wizards vaulted from the No. 8 spot to third.

Ten years after winning the lottery that landed them LeBron James, the Cavaliers picked up anoth-

er opportunity to help speed up the rebuilding process since his departure to Miami in 2010.

James’ exit shook a franchise that had become a perennial contender with the Ohio native, but the Cavs aren’t thinking about that now.

“It’s so long ago already.

I knew it is only three years but in NBA years it’s like dog years. It seems like it is 15 or 20 years,” Dan Gilbert said. “We’ve been just so focused on building the team the last few years, I can’t look back. There is nothing you can do. I am just happy about today.”

The potential No. 1 pick this year, Kentucky freshman Nerlens Noel, is no James. But he could be a nice addition for the Cavs once he’s recovered from a torn ACL if they keep the pick. They also have Nos. 19, 31 and 33 for new coach Mike Brown, who they rehired after firing Byron Scott following a 24-58 season.

“We were hoping regardless of what pick we got that this would be our last lottery,” Dan Gilbert said. “We thought originally after everything had to be reset that it would be a three-year process. You never know. It could be four.

We thought three years, but having No. 1 and 19, we’ve got a pretty good chance of this being the last one for a while.”

Dan Gilbert and the rest of the Cavs entourage all wearing wine-colored bowties as well celebrated their latest victory, which came with 15.6 percent odds after they finished with the NBA’s third-worst record at 24-58.

NEW YORK (AP) — Any time a starting pitcher steps into the batter’s box before he stands on the mound, he’s in pretty good shape.

Mike Leake enjoyed that luxury Tuesday night.

Leake pitched three-hit ball for seven sharp innings and the Cincinnati Reds parlayed star third baseman David Wright’s early error into a 4-0 victory over the New York Mets.

Leake, one of the majors’ best-hitting pitchers, struck out to end the top of the first inning. The Reds already led 3-0 by then, scoring all those runs after Wright let a bases-loaded, two-out grounder skip through his legs.

“It always helps a little bit,” Leake said. “It helps you relax a little bit. It lets you attack hitters, instead of being timid.”

Devin Mesoraco homered as the Reds won for the ninth time in 11 games. And for the second straight day, they opened a 3-0 lead over the Mets in the opening inning.

Leake (4-2) struck out four, walked two and became the latest pitcher to shut down the Mets at Citi Field. New York has lost 10 of 12 at home, rarely scoring many runs.

Leake escaped his biggest jam by retiring slumping Ike Davis on a grounder with runners on second and third to end the fourth.

“Everything was seeming to work,” Leake said.

The 25-year-old righty has never pitched a shutout in the majors, and was pulled for reliever Sam LeCure to begin the eighth.

LeCure and Logan Ondrusek each threw a hitless inning to finish up.

Jonathon Niese (3-5) wasn’t charged with an

Niese set down the first two batters of the night before Joey Votto walked, Brandon Phillips looped a single and Jay Bruce walked.

Todd Frazier followed with a hard grounder right at Wright, and the ball bounced under his glove and let two runs score.

Earlier this season, Wright ran his errorless streak to 77 games, a team record for third basemen.

“That ball was scorched,” Reds manager Dusty Baker said. “I know they called it an error, but whatever happened to the old ‘too hot to handle?’”

Either way, the Reds were on their way.

“It was hit sharply and just got a tricky in-between hop,” Wright said. “I looked at the replay and trying to learn what I could have done differently and really couldn’t do much.”

“Just wish the ball would have found the glove because Jon Niese settled in and was fantastic those next five innings and really did a nice job saving the bullpen. So I wish I could have made that one,” he said. “When things aren’t going so great, one play like that can cost you a game and it did today.”

Donald Lutz then beat out an infield hit that reloaded the bases and Mesoraco drew another walk that forced home a run. Niese struck out Leake to end an inning in which he threw 48 pitches, and walked off the mound hold-

ing the glove in his throwing hand.

“That’s what you want to do jump ‘em early,” Baker said. “Break the spirit of the opposing pitcher. A lot times, they think they’re throwing good in the bullpen and then, ‘What happened?’”

Mesoraco hit reliever Collin McHugh’s first pitch in the ninth for his second home run.

Votto extended his hitting streak to 10 games while Bruce’s string ended at 11.

NOTES: Reds SS Zack Cozart returned to the lineup after missing two games because of a stomach illness. … Reds CF Shin-Soo Choo got a day off. … Mets ace RHP Matt Harvey (5-0, 1.55 ERA) starts Wednesday afternoon vs. RHP Mat Latos (4-0, 2.91).

Indians

Newton’s McKell Deaton breaks for first base after hitting the ball Tuesday against Southeastern at Bethel High School.

■ CONTINUED FROM 14 Newton coach Kirk Kadel said. “We made a lot of great plays on defense today.

(Southeastern) hit the heck out of the ball, but they hit it right at us.

“Maddie going up and getting that ball in the sixth was huge. Maddie, Laura (Oaks), Laura (Burden) and McKell (Deaton) made a lot of plays in the game.”

With top-seeded Southeastern’s Carpenter throwing well on the other side, Newton’s defense — which went through its growing pains throughout the early part of the season — came through and kept the Indians in the game early.

Southeastern began the first inning with a pair of one-out hits to put runners on first and second. But on a sinking line drive to center that could have scored the game’s first run, Newton center fielder Laura Oaks ran in and made a shoestring catch. And with the runner at second breaking for the plate, she trotted in and stepped on second to

Newton pinch runner Riley Schauer (right) breaks for third on a hit by Rose Studebaker. Schauer — running for pitcher Kirsten Burden, who had doubled — scored the game’s first run in the top of the fifth inning and the Indians went on to defeat Southeastern 2-1 at Bethel High School. record an unassisted double play from the outfield to end the inning.

Oaks, Deaton and Burden each Laura recorded four putouts.

Kirsten Burden only struck out two hitters in the game — but she knew she could trust her defense, and it didn’t phase her.

“I definitely have a lot of confidence in my team,” Burden said. “And they always prove me right.”

“It was extremely important. If not for the defense, we might not have won this game,” Mollette said.

But the Indians had to score runs to win it, too.

Kirsten Burden led off the top of the fifth with a double to the left-center gap, but Riley Schauer — who came in to run for her — couldn’t advance on a pop-out to first. But

balls to right in the bottom of the seventh, and Deaton recorded all three outs to end the game.

“At the beginning of the year, we didn’t even have an outfield,” Kadel said. “We had to make an outfield. And that’s a credit to coach Gibson and coach Oburn, who have been working with those girls all year.

“Give credit to Southeastern, too. They played well and (Carpenter) pitched well.

This was a good win for us.”

Newton now travels to Brookville on Friday for a district championship matchup against Seven Hills/Cincinnati Country Day.

Rose Studebaker faked a bunt and slapped a runscoring single to right to break the scoreless tie, Deaton bunted her to second with two outs and Laura Oaks yanked an RBI single to left to give the Indians some muchneeded insurance.

Needed because the Trojans weren’t going away without a fight.

They began the sixth with a pair of singles, and a groundout advanced the runners to second and third. A sac fly to Deaton in right cut the lead in half and advance the other runner to third, bringing up Carpenter — who had already doubled twice in the game.

And Carpenter roped one that looked headed for right field, but Mollette jumped up and stole the win. Burden then induced three fly

“We scored a lot of runs in the first inning. We haven’t scored a lot of runs in any inning in a long time,” Troy coach Ty Welker said.

“We’ve been struggling with the bats lately, so it was nice to get on the board right away.”

Nick Sander was 2 for 2 with a double and two RBIs, Greg Johnson was 2 for 3 with two RBIs and Jay Swigard and Cam Weaver both doubled for the Trojans.

Michael Fellers was 2 for 3 with three RBIs, hitting a two-run homer in the game for the Vikings, and Dylan Kinnison doubled.

The difference, however, was Covington’s ability to hit the ball as it tallied 11 hits in the contest.
