Welcome back Sister city officials to again attend Strawberry Festival

With promises of delectable food and time-honored festivities, the Strawberry Festival attracts visitors near and far — but perhaps nowhere farther than Takahashi City, Japan.

After a fun-filled time at the festival in 2010, Mayor Takanori Kondo wanted to make a return visit to its sister city, said Troy Mayor

“Mayor Kondo enjoyed the festival so much last time that he requested to come again,” Beamish said. “He loves the parade, the bed races and the levee — those are the three things that he thinks are most important for him to see.”

Iowa rivers overflowed Tuesday after many communities in the state received up to 8 inches of rain in just three days, but a lull in the wet weather was giving many local officials time to regroup ahead of more rain that could hit and bring major flooding. See Page 10.

So many books, so little time I can hardly believe it, but we’re almost halfway through 2013. Wasn’t it just Christmas? Didn’t I just write like a gazillion (OK, only two) stories about snow removal in Troy? How was that months ago?

Anyway, I’ve been trying to keep up with my New Year’s resolution of reading 52 books in 52 weeks. Five months through and with 19 down, I think I’m a little behind but still pretty much on track. See Page 5.

W.M. woman faces three sex charges

J.B. Gibson, a Vietnam veteran and captain of the VFW Post No. 5436 Honor Guard, stressed the importance of teaching America’s youth about the men and women in our military who gave their lives to defend freedom.

“We all know we’re a segment of the population that’s rapidly dwindling, so it is incumbent upon us to instill in the youngest Americans a reverence for the losses of war,” Gibson said.

Local Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts helped to decorate the graves of departed soldiers and learned from veterans about the responsibility of citizenship.

Navy veteran Don Rutledge and his wife Jean scatter rose petals from the Adams Street Bridge to honor those who died at sea.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Home prices are surging, job growth is strengthening and stocks are setting record highs. All of which explains why Americans are more hopeful about the economy than at any other point in five years.

Investors on Tuesday celebrated the latest buoyant reports on consumer confidence and housing prices, which together suggest that growth could accelerate in the second half of 2013.

Greater confidence could spur people to spend more and help offset tax increases and federal spending cuts. And the fastest rise in home prices in seven years might lead more Americans to put houses on the market, easing supply shortages that have kept the housing recovery from taking off.

“Freedom is never free, it has to be earned. A nation that forgets its veterans will itself be forgotten.”

Beamish reminded the crowd to reflect on the sacrifices those in the military make to protect the American way of life. He thanked all veterans for their service and commended local veterans’ groups for supporting veterans and their families.

“On a personal note, this memorial day has special meaning for me. Just last week we lost another World War II vet, a Navy veteran who had served in Pearl Harbor aboard a troop transport aircraft carrier,” Beamish said. “This person was my hero: it was my dad. With his death we lost many of his personal memories.”

DENVER (AP) — A set of laws to govern how recreational marijuana should be grown, sold and taxed was signed into law Tuesday in Colorado, where Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper called the measures the state’s best attempt to navigate the uncharted territory of legalized recreational pot.

The laws cover how the drug should be raised and packaged, with purchasing limits for out-of-state visitors and a new marijuana driving limit as an analogy to blood alcohol levels.

Hickenlooper didn’t support marijuana legalization last year, but he praised the regulatory package as a good first crack at safely overseeing the drug.

“Recreational marijuana is really a completely new entity,” Hickenlooper said, calling the pot rules “commonsense” oversight, such as required potency labeling and a requirement that marijuana is to be sold in child-proof opaque packing with labels clearly stating the drug may not be safe.

Colorado voters approved recreational marijuana as a constitutional amendment last year. The state allows adults over 21 to possess up to an ounce of the drug. Adults can grow up to six plants, or buy pot in retail stores, which are slated to open in January.

The governor said Tuesday he believes the federal government will soon respond to the fact that Colorado and Washington state are in violation of federal drug law.

But Hickenlooper didn’t have a specific idea of when.

“We think that it will be relatively soon. We are optimistic that they are going to be a little more specific in

their approach on this issue,” Hickenlooper said.

Pressed for details, the governor jokingly referred to unrelated scandals surrounding the U.S. Department of Justice.

“They’ve been kind of busy,” Hickenlooper said.

Colorado’s new marijuana laws include buying limits for out-of-state visitors.

Visitors over 21 would be limited to one-fourth of an ounce in a single retail transaction, though they could legally possess the full ounce.

Colorado laws attempt to curb public use of marijuana by banning its sale in places that sell food and drinks that aren’t infused with the drug, an attempt to prevent Amsterdam-style pot cafes. Food laced with the drug also would have to be to-go orders.

Colorado’s laws also include a first-in-the-nation requirement that marijuana magazines such as High Times be kept behind the counter in stores that allow people under 21. That provision has prompted promises by attorneys representing at least two publications to challenge the restriction, which would treat pot magazines similar to pornography.

Besides the magazine restriction, Colorado’s laws differ in several more ways from proposed marijuana regulations pending in Washington state. Colorado makes no attempt to ban concentrated marijuana, or hashish, unlike Washington. Colorado also has different possession limits on edible marijuana.

Colorado also is planning a brief grandfather period during which only current medical marijuana business owners could sell recreational pot.

Both states are poised to require all pot-related businesses to have security systems, 24-hour video surveillance and insurance. One of the Colorado laws signed Tuesday gives state pot businesses a chance to claim business deductions on their taxes, something currently prohibited because the industry is illegal under federal law.

Watershed association disbands after 10 years

BY ANDREW WILSON For the Troy Daily News tdneditorial@civitasmedia.com After 10 years of helping to protect and preserve local waterways, Honey Creek Watershed Association (HWCA) members have announced they are ceasing operation. HCWA members stated that due to a lack of grant funding along with the tight economic times, they will no longer be able to continue their organizational activities.

“We greatly appreciate the support the community has given us over the past 10 plus years and regret we can no longer proceed with our mission of protecting our local water resources,” HCWA Director Leigh Ann Gerardi McCulla said. “The water quality in our area is very precious and valuable, and we hope that everyone will continue to protect it.

Please remember to consider the affect your activity may have on water quality in your decisions as a resident or as a professional.”

The organization, which came together in 2002, strived to be proactive in protecting and preserving water resources within the “watershed.” The watershed is “an area of land that drains downhill through a network of ditches, streams, creeks, lakes and wetlands to converge at the lowest point and form larger and larger rivers. Watersheds

include both surface water and groundwater and are also called ‘catch basins’ or ‘drainage basins.’”

According to the HCWA website, the Honey Creek watershed consists of 143 square miles and embodies 70 percent of the area known as the Upper Great Miami River. The buried water aquifer within the watershed supplies the Dayton area with more than 36 million gallons of drinking water per day. Furthermore, the watershed contains 290 wetlands with a concentration of high quality wetlands along Honey Creek, between New Carlisle and Tipp City.

Among the notable waterways protected by the watershed are the Great Miami River, Honey Creek, East and West Forks Honey Creek, Indian Creek and Pleasant Run. All of the waterways are located near towns such as Vandalia, Huber Heights, Tipp City, New Carlisle and Christiansburg.

The HCWA has helped protect the watershed by providing numerous educational programs within the community. Such programs include watershed festivals, stream team trainings, storm water education programs for local cities and stream restoration projects among others. Additionally, the HCWA has served as a

place where communities and stakeholders can come together and address water quality problems in an environment that is free of political boundaries.

“The large feature of any watershed group, basically is to provide a neutral platform for political agencies to come together,” Gerardi McCulla said.

It was funded by individual, family and municipal memberships, grants and state matching funds.

Despite closing their doors this month, the HCWA will maintain its 501 (c) 3 nonprofit status for the next five years in addition to keeping its status as a nonprofit organization if someone wishes to resurrect the organization and continue its mission.

“One thing that’s going for this area is that we don’t have a specific large problem to deal with, like Lake St. Mary’s,” Gerardi McCulla said to encourage local community members to continue the organization. “Which is a blessing and a curse a little bit, because if there was one specific problem that the community could identify with, then that will help pull people together and fix the water quality issue. So in that instance, it’s a little bit of a curse. We have spots here and there that have issues, but overall I think the watershed is doing well.”

Question: Do you plan on attending this year’s Troy Strawberry Festival?

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 The Khaleej Times, Dubai, on the UK’s continent vote: The British Tories are up in arms against David Cameron.

One after another conservative leaders are voicing their concern over the ongoing debate and direction of the party, and squarely blame the British prime minister for opening a Pandora’s box with reference to the country’s geopolitical relationship with the European Union.

The latest one to air his grievances was conservative cabinet minister Lord Howe. He said that the Tory leadership is running scared of its MPs by offering to renegotiate Britain’s relationship with the continent.

The elder politician and backbencher also criticised Cameron for kicking a tin on his way and in initiating this debate and politically losing the ground in terms of steering the party towards a leadership role.

He didn’t mince words and warned of grave consequences on leaving the Union. It is now, however, a foregone conclusion that Cameron wants a referendum by the year 2015, if his party wins the next general elections As I The Japan Times, Tokyo, See It on China’s defense policy: ■ The Troy Last month, China released its white paper Daily News on national defense, the eighth since Beijing welcomes began releasing the document in 1998.

In a world characterized by multiple and complicated security threats and challenges — and the “arduous task to safeguard its national unification, territorial integrity and development interests” — that means the modernization of China’s military will continue.

To allay concerns about the expansion of those capabilities, the white paper insists that China’s foreign and defense policies are “defensive in nature.”

It reiterates the claim that “China will never seek hegemony or behave in a hegemonic manner, nor will it engage in military expansion.”

In a departure from previous editions, this year’s white paper provides actual numbers of military personnel, designations of the force organization and structure, and details of China’s missile forces.

According to the white paper, there are some 850,000 men and women in the People’s Liberation Army, organized in 18 corps and brigades under seven military area commands.

White papers are intended to provide context for defense thinking and spending, and answer the question “how much is enough?” This white paper does the first, but not the second.

LETTERS

Concert will bring problems To the Editor: I agree 100 percent with Terri Schlosser’s letter to the

editor printed in the May 20 edition of the Troy Daily News.

My question to Troy Main Street is who made the decision to sell alcohol and to sell it on school property?

This does not make sense.

All I can see for this event being held in Troy is problems for the residents of Troy.

So many books, so little time this year Troy Troy Daily News I can hardly believe it, but we’re almost halfway through 2013. Wasn’t it just Christmas?

Didn’t I just write like a gazillion (OK, only two) stories about snow removal in Troy?

How was that months ago?

Anyway, I’ve been trying to keep up with my New Year’s resolution of reading 52 books in 52 weeks. Five months through and with 19 down, I think I’m a little behind but still pretty much on track.

I totally copied off my friend for this idea, by the way, believing it would be a somewhat ambitious goal, yet also entertaining and educational. Unlike other resolutions, this one is actually pretty fun, and I don’t dread reading at all, even though I’m pretty much forcing myself to do it.

The thing is though: reading requires a fairly substantial amount of time — time that could be spent doing perhaps more productive things. Plus, after working at a desk most of the day, often the last thing I want to do is sit still some more and read words on a page — no matter how interesting the

Natalie Knoth Troy Daily News Columnist book is. Still, I’m trying to persevere because my list of “mustreads” is becoming overwhelming.

There’s “Z: A Novel of Zelda Fitzgerald,” which traces the life of Great Gatsby author F. Scott Fitzgerald’s wife Zelda and their tumultuous marriage.

There’s also “The Unbearable Lightness of Being,” a philosophical novel of sorts about the forces that shape our lives, as seen through the relationships of two couples.

Another I’ve been meaning to read is Amanda Knox’s memoir, “Waiting to Be Heard” about being convicted of murder in her Italian roommate’s death and then having the conviction overturned, after four years in

prison. And finally “The Still Point of the Turning World” piqued my interest when I read the summary: a mother reflects on her young son’s diagnosis with a fatal genetic disorder.

Others include “Catch 22” and “Wuthering Heights” (never did read those in high school), along with “The Language of Flowers,” “The Interestings,” “Casual Vacancy,” “Curious?” and “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.” Not to mention I still haven’t tackled the books I borrowed from friends — “Sarah’s Key” and “Cane River.” I also haven’t read the popular book I bought at Barnes & Noble recently, “Into The Wild” nor the two Nicholas Sparks books I’ve been meaning to read, called “The Best of Me” and, of course, “The Notebook,” of which the wildly popular movie is named.

Beyond finding the time to read these, I also simply need to seek these books out. As a side note, I’ve never been a Kindle user, nor do I think I could be. There’s something about holding a book in your hands, flipping through the

pages, maybe flipping back a few too, to recall something that happened earlier.

I’ve always been a huge fan of libraries (I could spend all day in one) but there’s something about buying the book (for cheap online, usually).

Even years after taking English classes, I still find the need to jot in the margins and underline passages.

Plus, I like passing them on to a friend, who, come to think of it, probably doesn’t appreciate all those notes. Oops, sorry about that.

A sign of a good book, I believe, is being unable to resist marking passages. I found myself doing that all the time when I read “Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking” by Susan Cain and “Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me” by Mindy Kaling. So if you’re looking for a new book to read…these have my blessing.

On to the next one.

NAOMI J. KELCH PIQUA — Naomi J. Stephan Kelch, 88, of Piqua, went to be with the Lord on Tuesday, May 28, 2013, after a long and wonderful life shared graciously with her family and many lifelong friends.

She was born March 22, 1925, in Piqua, to the late Vernie and Caroline (Boyd) Stephan.

She was a graduate of Piqua High School.

Naomi married Raymond Charles Kelch on April 4, 1943, at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Piqua by the Rev. Simon Long.

Together they raised three children. Naomi is survived by a daughter, Klarinda KELCH (Stephen) King of Piqua; a son, Spencer (Corky) Kelch of Indiana; and a daughter-in-law, Linda Kelch of Piqua.

For many years Naomi was the secretary for her husband’s business, Kelch Appliance Service. She was an active member of St. John’s Lutheran Church of Covington since 1980.

She enjoyed collecting buttons and giving “Button Talks” at various events.

She was always known as the button lady.

Naomi and Ray made a trip to Alaska by car, camping along the way for their 25th wedding anniversary and created many fond memories.

She also worked at the election board, was a member of the Piqua Leisure Club and attended classes at Edison State Community College from 1995-1997.

Naomi spent many countless hours compiling genealogy.

She also enjoyed going to garage sales with her daughter and sharing her home with her white cat “Mr. Wiskers.”

Naomi is also survived by a sister Phyllis Hixson; brother Wendell (Pat) Stephan; sisterin-laws Margie Rupe and Betty (Bill) Riegle, and a brother in law Bob Kelch.

Her husband Raymond preceded her in death in 1989 after 43 years of marriage, as well as her son Terry Kelch in 2012.

Renowned sports surgeon Lewis Yocum dies at 66 LOS ANGELES (AP) — Renowned orthopedic surgeon Lewis Yocum, who extended the careers of many big leaguers by repairing injuries that once would’ve ended their playing days, has died. He was 66.

Yocum had been the team orthopedist of the Los Angeles Angels for 36 years.

Team spokesman Tim Mead said Tuesday that Yocum died on Saturday in Manhattan Beach.

Yocum had been ill with liver cancer.

“I wouldn’t be here without him,” Washington Nationals pitcher Jordan Zimmermann said. “He’s fixed a lot of guys and done a lot for the game of baseball.”

Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig called Yocum “a giant in the field of sports medicine.”

“All of our clubs relied upon Dr. Yocum’s trusted opinion and judgment,” Selig said in a statement. “Throughout the last 36 years, the lives and careers of countless players benefited from his pioneering expertise, and he made our game on the field better as a result.”

Yocum specialized in sports medicine, shoulder, elbow and knees, according to the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopedic Clinic Web site. The Los Angeles clinic was founded

by Frank Jobe, a doctor who pioneered elbow ligament replacement surgery, popularly known as Tommy John surgery, in 1974.

Yocum, Jobe and James Andrews became the key surgeons for big leaguers.

“They’re just as much a part of the game as the players, keeping us on the field,” Washington manager Davey Johnson said.

Nationals pitchers Stephen Strasburg and Zimmermann were among the players operated on by Yocum.

“He’s saved a lot of guys’ careers,” Zimmermann said.

Zimmermann recalled Yocum’s dry sense of humor when the doctor checked him to see if the pitcher had a ligament that was big enough in his wrist.

“Obviously, it wasn’t,” he said. “He told me what to do and his stuck out about a half-inch. I said, ‘Can I just take yours?’

He didn’t smile one bit and said, ‘You

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

You need to discuss these issues with your wife soon Dear Annie: My wife and I have been married for 34 years. I changed jobs so I could have better hours and pay and more time with my wife and son.

Eighteen months ago, I went on disability due to severe arthritis.

A few years back, I noticed that my wife was coming up with reasons for us not to have sex. She said my work hours kept her up too late, and then she played Internet games all night. A year ago, her father died, and she claims she has to stay with Mom five nights a week. In the past eight months, we've had sex twice.

I never forget an occasion and bought her lovely gifts for Valentine's Day, her birthday and our anniversary. She got me nothing. She could have asked her brother to stay with Mom, but didn't. I spent my birthday alone, without even a phone call. I spent our anniversary watching her play Internet games, and when we finally got into bed, she pushed me away, telling me to leave her alone. We had a big argument, and she said she doesn't love me and only stays because of our 30-year-old son.

She also said I need her because of her insurance.

Annie, I am afraid I am going to die alone and in pain. I am looking at a bottle of pills, wondering whether I should take them and simply get out of her way. — Rejected Dear Rejected: Please don't.

Your wife isn't looking to divorce.

The main problem is that she's no longer interested in sex. She believes (and perhaps rightly) that being around you means she will feel pressured to be intimate.

So she avoids you by spending time online or with Mom. The two of you have decisions to make. Is she willing to have sex on occasion? Are you willing to live without it? Are there other accommodations you could reach regarding intimacy? Please discuss these issues honestly and openly. If you find it too difficult to start this conversation, talk to your doctor about a referral to a marriage counselor.

Dear Annie: My dad is getting remarried on Labor Day weekend.

Though I'm happy for him, this will be his third marriage. I went to the last two ceremonies.

During his most recent marriage, he put his new family's needs ahead of those of my siblings and me from the "old marriage." I'm expecting the same this time around.

Here's the problem: I have been training for months to run a full marathon that happens to be scheduled the same day as the wedding. I didn't know about the wedding until after I'd already signed up for the marathon.

Although I'd be finished running by the time the ceremony begins, it's three hours away and a long drive after a physically and emotionally intense event.

My dad says it's really important to him that I go, and so do my siblings. But I'm turning 30 soon and am weary of Dad's immaturity. Should I go to both events? Should I put my needs first and not go at all? — LongDistance Runner Dear Running: We think you should make an effort to go, even if it means arriving late. He's still your father, and your presence matters to him. And who knows?

Maybe the third time's the charm.

Dear Annie: I'm 73 and have been sending emails for quite awhile. I don't remember hearing that all caps means shouting. For many of us, finding the "Caps Lock" button is already an accomplishment. The alternatives you suggested to enlarge the lettering is so beyond our abilities, they could have been in a foreign language.

I can't imagine any seniors getting upset about receiving a letter all in caps, even if it were shouting. Many of us are also hard of hearing. — N.D.

With ‘Arrested,’ ‘Archer,’ prime time for Walter

The new “Arrested” season is structurally different from the first three, with each episode LOS ANGELES (AP) — There was a time when Jessica dedicated to catching viewers up on a single character. Kristin Walter couldn’t get “Arrested.”

Wiig plays the young Lucille. An In 2003, the Emmy-winning “Arrested Development” movie actress read the script for may be next.

“Arrested Development” and Walter also gets prestigious wanted the role of Lucille Bluth, the monstrous matriarch of the enterprise billing (“… and Jessica Walter”) on another curquirky sitcom’s decidedly dysrent series, the FX ‘toon functional family.

“But they weren’t seeing me,” “Archer,” which is something of Walter recalled, referring to the a James Bond movie meeting show’s producers. “Yeah, tragic, TV’s “The Office.” Walter voices another mad mama, intelliisn’t it?” she continued, with a gence-agency chief Mallory sly smile.

Archer. The plots are so twisted, Walters eventually got the gig, and “Arrested Development” scripts so pop-culture crammed, “half of the time, I don’t even would go on to win a 2004 understand what’s going on,” Emmy for outstanding comedy Walter admitted. series.

With “Arrested Development” “It exposed me to a demographic of people who thought I back and “Archer” just renewed after a season of record-breakwas sick or dead,” commented ing ratings, it appears to be the 72-year-old Walter, who, prime time for the veteran until “Arrested”’s fall 2003 debut, was probably best known actress.

MONDAY’S SOLUTION:

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Water bottle suggestion really works — no yolk!

Dear Heloise: A simple way of removing egg yolk and leaving the whites behind is with an empty water bottle. Squeeze the upside-down water bottle.

Place the bottle opening against the yolk (raw egg). Let go so the yolk is drawn up into the bottle. Move the bottle to another dish and squeeze so the yolk comes out. Perfect! — Barbara M. in West Virginia What an interesting hint, and one that we tested in Heloise Central, my home and office. The only tricky part is once the yolk is in the bottle.

You need to slightly tilt the bottle to the side to keep the yolk from falling back out.

Hints from Heloise Columnist Also, we tried a small water bottle first, which did not work.

It must be the larger size, approximately 16 ounces. — Heloise P.S.: For any bacteria concerns, as long as you make sure to cook all the egg parts you are using to the proper temperature, any bacteria will

be destroyed during the process.

DISHWASHER DRAINER Dear Heloise: I spent an entire day baking treats for my family. The amount of dirty dishes was overwhelming.

Most of the pans and utensils I used could not be washed in the dishwasher.

After filling the dish drainer, I still had dishes left to wash and dry. So, I opened the dishwasher door and used the empty racks for drying the remaining dishes. — K.G. in Tennessee PREPARE PLANTAINS Dear Readers: Plantains are not bananas, but they sure

do look like them, don’t they?

They are a little larger than a banana, with a little thicker skin. Plantains are starchy but are lower in sugar than bananas. You can’t eat them raw, but once they are cooked, they can be used much like potatoes in Caribbean cuisine.

Plantains are now available in most stores year-round!

They can be eaten at every stage from green to yellow.

Green plantains are best prepared fried or boiled, while yellow plantains often are grilled or baked. Black plantains, which are the sweetest, usually are baked into desserts. Step out and try them! — Heloise

HOROSCOPE

SNUFFY SMITH

BY FRANCES DRAKE For Thursday, May 30, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) In the next six weeks, you'll identify more strongly with your beliefs. This is why you will be keen to get others to agree with you.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Do not get caught up in thinking your possessions or bank account is really who you are. This might be the case in the next month or so. Be aware of this.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Mars is in your sign now and for the next six weeks. Make sure you get extra physical exercise to burn off some of this pent-up steam building within you.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Secrets and people working against your best interests might be the case for the next month or so. Nevertheless, you will discover what you need to learn.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Expect to be active with groups, especially competitively, during the next six weeks. Or one person in particular might challenge you to excel in some way.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Your ambition will be aroused in the next two months, which is why you will try hard to make your mark in the world. Just make sure you don't create conflict with bosses.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You will love exploring creative intellectual work and study in the next month. In fact, you will want to do anything that expands your mind.

Learn something new!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Disputes with others about shared property might occur in the next six weeks. This is not a good time to go for a loan or a mortgage.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Because Mars will be opposite your sign for the next six weeks, it's easy to be annoyed with others. Keep this in mind and just be patient. Cut people some slack.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) In the next two months, you will be gung-ho to clean up your act. Buy paint, cleaning equipment, shelving, file folders, labels -- whatever you need to get better organized.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Romance and playful excursions will be tops on the list for you in the next month. Take a vacation if you can.

Time for fun!

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Renovations and increased activity at home might be exhausting. Practice patience with loved ones, because anger only serves to make everyone miserable.

YOU BORN TODAY You love speed, and you love your freedom. You are not someone who is happy with routine because you thrive on thrills and change. You have a quick mind and are skillful at many tasks. Even your moods change quickly! In the year ahead, a major change might take place, perhaps as significant as something that occurred around 2004.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Wednesday, May 29, the 149th day of 2013. There are 216 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlights in History: On May 29, 1913, the ballet “Le Sacre du printemps” (The Rite of Spring), with music by Igor Stravinsky and choreography by Vaslav Nijinsky, had its chaotic world premiere in Paris. The D.H. Lawrence novel “Sons and Lovers” was first published by Duckworth & Co. of London, albeit in an expurgated version.

On this date: • In 1917, the 35th president of the United States, John F. Kennedy, was born in Brookline, Mass.

• In 1932, World War I veterans began arriving in Washington to demand cash bonuses they weren’t scheduled to receive until 1945.

• In 1943, Norman Rockwell’s portrait of “Rosie the Riveter” appeared on the cover of The Saturday Evening Post.

• In 1953, Mount Everest was conquered as Edmund Hillary of New Zealand and Tensing Norgay of Nepal became the first climbers to reach the summit.

• In 1973, Tom Bradley was elected the first black mayor of Los Angeles, defeating incumbent Sam Yorty.

• In 1987, a jury in Los Angeles acquitted “Twilight Zone” movie director John Landis and four associates of involuntary manslaughter in the movie-set deaths of actor Vic Morrow and two child actors, 7-year-old Myca Dinh Le and 6-year-old Renee ShinYi Chen, who were killed by a falling helicopter.

• Today’s Birthdays: Actor Clifton James is 92. Former Baseball Commissioner Fay Vincent is 75.

Race car driver Al Unser is 74.

Singer LaToya Jackson is 57. Actor Ted Levine is 56. Actress Lisa Whelchel is 50. Rapper Playa Poncho is 38.

Iowa residents deal with flooded roads, basements haven’t been able to reach the SUV because it is submerged in deep, swiftly moving water, a scene too dangerous for divers.

The Iowa River in Marshalltown in central Iowa was falling after cresting at 21.6 feet Monday.

Flood stage is 19 feet.

Marshall County Emergency Management Coordinator Kim Elder said officials are regularly checking the city’s levee to be sure it’s holding.

Flash flooding Saturday and Sunday caused mudslides and road damage. “We have no homes under water but we have a lot of basement flooding right now.

We’re holding steady and hoping for no more rain,” Elder said.

In eastern Iowa, the Iowa River reached 18.2 feet at Marengo on Tuesday morning and is expected to hit 19

feet by Friday. Flood stage is 14 feet. The high water could flood the parking lot of the Amana Refrigeration factory by week’s end and plans were being made for sandbagging operations, Iowa County Emergency Management Coordinator Josh Humphrey said.

Iowa Homeland Security and Emergency Management was sending truckloads of bottled water to New Sharon in southeast Iowa and Galva in northwest Iowa, where flooding shut down municipal water plants.

The agency’s spokesman, John Benson, said the concern the next few days will be heavy rain.

“One of the things we’re going to be stressing is for the public to start paying real close attention to the flash flood warnings and flood warnings and understand what the weather is

doing and how that can impact their area,” Benson said.

In Ames, Iowa State University closed the Lied Recreation Athletic Center for sandbagging and installed flood gates at Hilton Coliseum, Scheman Building, Stephens Auditorium, and the MapleWillow-Larch residence halls.

The campus is preparing for potential flooding from Squaw Creek and the South Skunk River. The river was at 22.3 feet after cresting early Tuesday at 22.6 feet.

Flood stage is 21.5 feet.

Iowa State University officials said in a statement that they are concerned about the potential for more rain in the forecast.

University of Iowa officials said they planned to

move 84 students from the Mayflower Hall on Thursday because of the potential for flooding by the Iowa River north of campus.

The residence hall, one of the first buildings on campus to flood in 2008, is housing students taking summer courses at the university.

The wet weather pattern remains active at least until Thursday when the current system begins moving east out of Iowa, said National Weather Service meteorologist Jeff Johnson. So a continued threat of rain exists through Thursday.

While this year’s flooding is serious in some locations, it hasn’t risen to the level of 2008 when a series of storms left nearly 44 inches of rain for the year, nearly 10 inches above normal.

The Des Moines and Cedar rivers posted historical record-high stream flows and levees were breached in Des Moines and Cedar Rapids. Damage was estimated at $10 billion statewide, making it the worst disaster in Iowa history.

The next few weeks of weather will determine how severe this year’s spring flooding becomes.

“This is how big floods happen,” said Johnson, the meteorologist. “You start out like this and the spigot doesn’t turn off. Everything is going to be dependent on the weather pattern for the next two weeks.”

He said the forecast for the next eight to 14 days calls for average temperatures, but above-normal chances of precipitation.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa rivers overflowed Tuesday after many communities in the state received up to 8 inches of rain in just three days, but a lull in the wet weather was giving many local officials time to regroup ahead of more rain that could hit and bring major flooding.

Portions of at least 10 state highways are already covered in water and closed to motorists, while numerous cities have also shut down streets because of flooding.

In northeast Iowa, Butler County Sheriff Jason Johnson said authorities still are trying to get to a 71year-old Ackley man who drove his SUV over rapidly moving water Monday morning. The vehicle was swept into a creek west of Parkersburg.

Bulldogs ready for the next level

BY JOSH BROWN Sports Editor jbrown@civitasmedia.com Matt Brumbaugh knows what the next level is all about.

Kenton Dickison and Jack Blevins got a small taste of it at the district tournament.

Friday morning at Ohio State University, the three MiltonUnion Bulldogs — Brumbaugh in the singles bracket and Dickison and Blevins in doubles play — will play at the highest level there is, the Division II state tournament.

“The level of play changes now,” Milton-Union coach Roger Davidson says. “It changed from Thursday to Saturday at district,

WEST MILTON and it’ll change from that Saturday to Friday. There’s not going to be anything easy.”

But they’re not phased at all.

“They’re excited,” Davidson said. “Practice has been a little more intense than it has been.

Then again, it’s only those three guys we’re focusing on. And they’re very focused. We’ve had some of the guys that are playing in college come back to hit with them, we’re scrimmaging against some of the best players in the area. The guys will be ready.”

Brumbaugh, a sophomore, qualified for state his freshman year, as well, fighting his way

through the backdraw at the district tournament to finish fifth.

This year, though, he grabbed one of the four automatic qualifying spots on the district tournament’s first day, finishing fourth. He then went on to win his first-round match before falling to Cincinnati Country Day’s Patrick Wildman in the second round.

He’ll face another sophomore, Coshocton’s Jim Magness, in the first round Friday morning.

Wildman is in his half of the bracket again, but that matchup wouldn’t happen potentially until the semifinal round.

“Matt’s good at analyzing the guy he’ll be playing,” Davidson said. “He said that the pressure

Cincinnati Reds’ Xavier Paul hits a two-run single off Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Zach McAllister in the first inning Tuesday in Cincinnati.

Reds keep rolling Hand Indians fifth straight loss, 8-2 CINCINNATI (AP) — Xavier Paul singled home a pair of runs in the first inning, and the Cincinnati Reds completed a two-game home sweep of the Cleveland Indians with an 8-2 victory on Tuesday night that was free of any up-and-in acrimony.

The intrastate rivals headed to Cleveland for two more games. The Indians lead the alltime series 42-41.

The Reds have won 14 of

their past 17 games overall, leaving them with the secondbest record in the majors at 3319. They trail NL Central-leading St. Louis.

Cleveland has dropped five straight — matching its season high — and seven of eight.

Mat Latos (5-0) handled a slumping lineup, allowing one run in 6 1-3 innings. The Indians have been outscored 3314 during their losing streak.

The Reds had 18 hits, one shy

of their season high.

Paul’s two-run single put the Reds ahead 3-0 in the first against Zach McAllister (4-4).

The Reds added four in the seventh against Cleveland’s struggling bullpen, with Derrick Robinson and Zack Cozart contributing RBI singles.

There was one lingering issue from Cincinnati’s 4-2 win in the series opener: Would the

Mario Chalmers had 20 points on a night the defending NBA champs failed to take command of the series.

They will host Game 5 on Thursday.

The Pacers started fast and spent the rest of the night trying to fend off Miami’s continual comebacks.

But with Indiana leading 8172 early in the fourth, Miami answered with a 14-2 run that gave the Heat an 86-83 lead.

Indiana tied the score on Paul George’s three-point play and erased the Miami lead by closing the game on a 16-6 run.

Slippery when wet No. 1 Djokovic wins on rainy day

Wings, ’Hawks prep for Game 7 It began with a convincing victory for the Blackhawks. Then Jimmy Howard and the Red Wings controlled the action for three straight games, pushing the NHL’s top-seeded team to the brink of elimination. See Page 14.

PARIS (AP) — Novak Djokovic spent the better part of a rainy Tuesday at the French Open wondering when and even whether he would wind up playing his first-round match at the only Grand Slam tournament he’s yet to win.

Unlike Wimbledon and the Australian Open, Roland Garros does not have a roof at any court.

Unlike the U.S. Open, though, at least there is a definitive timeline to build one.

Djokovic is thrilled about that

forthcoming addition in Paris, even if it won’t come until 2018.

He also can’t wait for them to install artificial lights at the French Open, which is supposed to happen sooner. Both of those improvements would have contributed to a more stress-free evening for the man ranked and seeded No. 1, who slipped and slid his way along the red clay to a 7-6 (5), 6-4, 7-5 victory over AP PHOTO David Goffin in the first round.

Dirtbags win MAK tourney

Back-and-forth battle Wings, Blackhawks prepare for decisive Game 7 CHICAGO (AP) — It began with a convincing victory for the Blackhawks. Then Jimmy Howard and the Red Wings controlled the action for three straight games, pushing the NHL’s top-seeded team to the brink of elimination.

Then there was the response from Chicago, which found its offense in time to take two in a row and grab at least one more home date.

Back and forth. Back and forth. Enough twists and turns to rival the greatest roller coasters.

The last act of the seesaw series between longtime rivals is set for Wednesday, when the Blackhawks face the Red Wings in Game 7 of the Western Conference semifinals.

It comes one night after the United Center hosts The Rolling Stones, who know all about exciting sold-out shows.

“It’s about what competition is all about,” Red coach Mike Wings Babcock said. “If you’re going to continue to play, you got to be successful in the game. You play to play again. … Anytime you go to Game 7, it’s been a heck of a series.”

The Dirtbags beat the West Carrollton Pirates 4-2, the Sting 14-3, the West Liberty Tigers 15-0, and ultimately run-ruled the Bellefontaine Chieftains 9-0 in the championship game. The team is: bottom, from left — coach Tony McLain, Donovan Martinez, Austin McLain, Bryce Kleiber, Josh Abbott and coach JJ Kleiber. Top, from left — coach Jon Hofmann, Torin Fletcher, Alby Baker, Kiefer Jones, Cole Hofmann, Parker Riley, Nathan Blei and coach Dave Riley.

Mark Kreusch was only four years old when he lost his young life on August 11, 2007 in a tragic boating accident. In his short life, he impacted many in a large way. In an effort to perpetuate his memory, his family created the Mark Andrew Kreusch Fund to benefit youth enrichment. The “MAK” baseball tournament was started in July 2008 as the very first fundraiser for the organization. This year, the event was expanded to two weekends to accommodate the demand from registered teams. Please visit www.markkreusch.com for more information.

The Red Wings just want to put their previous two losses behind them, while the Blackhawks were a long shot to even get to this point just a few days ago.

“I mean you’ve got to feel better about yourself coming off of two wins, but at the same time we’re keeping our feet on the ground, the same way we did when we were down 31 in the series,” Chicago captain Jonathan Toews said. “We know that it’s

just one game at a time and you can’t worry about too many things at once.”

After Chicago opened the series with a 4-1 win, Detroit turned up the pressure and Howard made 86 saves in 88 opportunities during a brilliant stretch that powered the Red Wings to a commanding edge.

The Blackhawks regained the momentum with another 4-1 victory in Game 5, and then stayed alive with a 4-3 win in Detroit on Monday night.

Now the Red Wings get one day to regroup for their second Game 7 on

the road this postseason.

“We knew it was going to be tough,” Howard said.

“They’re a really good team and they showed it in the last two games.”

Detroit carried a 2-1 lead into the third period on Monday, but Chicago grabbed control with a three-goal flurry that silenced the crowd at Joe Louis Arena.

First, Michal Handzus converted a wide-open opportunity right in front of the net, and then Bryan Bickell scored from in close. Michael Frolik used a nifty little move to convert a penalty shot at 9:43.

Lady Warriors ‘94 win at Strawberry Tournament

The Lady Warriors ‘94 Black team won its division of the Troy Strawberry Festival soccer tournament recently.

Reds ■ CONTINUED FROM 13 Indians retaliate for Aroldis Chapman’s inside pitches?

The Reds closer threw two of them up-and-in to Nick Swisher while closing out the game on Monday, resulting in stares.

Cincinnati’s Brandon Phillips and Shin-Soo Choo were hit on Tuesday, but went to first without complaint or warning from plate umpire Chad Fairchild.

The series matching teams from Ohio’s north and south has taken on an edge for the second straight

year.

Last year, Indians starter Derek Lowe got hit by a Latos pitch and gestured toward Reds manager Dusty Baker.

Baker acknowledged that he had Latos pitch inside because Lowe had hit Joey Votto in a game three years earlier.

Choo, who came from Cleveland as part of the offseason trade for Drew Stubbs, homered in the series opener and had another solid all-around game on Tuesday. He ran down two fly balls on the

warning track and opened the Reds’ first inning with a double.

Cozart followed Choo’s double with a bunt single, and Votto singled home a run. Paul’s single made it 30, matching the most earned runs that McAllister has allowed in a game this season.

Stubbs singled with one out in the fifth only Cleveland’s second hit and stole second. Michael Bourn singled off Votto’s glove at first base, cutting the lead to 3-1.

The Reds failed to score despite getting at least two runners aboard in the third, fourth, fifth and sixth innings before breaking it open by sending nine batters to the plate in the seventh.

NOTES: Indians closer Chris Perez, who went on the 15-day DL before the start of the series, had an MRI that found mild tendinitis. He won’t throw for at least five days. … SS Asdrubal Cabrera had his seven-game hitting streak snapped.

Focused on the Finals After finishing off Grizzlies, Spurs’ sights turn to title

Nike cuts ties to Livestrong

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Tim Duncan is so close to his first NBA championship in six long years that the Spurs star isn’t worried about the little issue of being rusty once the finals actually start.

“My sole focus is trying to get this done, trying to get another championship,” Duncan said. “I don’t care records; I don’t care age. I don’t care any of that stuff. I just want to do what I have to do to try to win a championship.”

San Antonio ended its six-year drought between NBA Finals by finishing a sweep of the Memphis Grizzlies 93-86 on Monday night for its fifth Western Conference title. The first sweep in a conference final since the Nets beat Detroit in 2003 also earned the Spurs a nine-day break before Game 1 of the finals June 6.

Duncan said the benefit will be the Spurs should be completely healthy with their legs underneath them.

“We’re going to be a little rusty starting the first game it’s just how it is,” Duncan said. “We’re going to try to figure out how to practice, how to stay sharp.

But bottom line, we’re going to be a little rusty.

Hopefully, we can shake that off real quick and get right back to our rhythm.”

All the Spurs worked hard to be just four wins away from adding a title to those won in 1999, 2003, 2005 and 2007. Duncan was the MVP of the first three of those finals, but he’s now 37 and wrapping up his 16th season.

Tony Parker said he’s been doing his best to get Duncan back to this point for what might be the 6foot-11 forward’s final chance at a championship.

He promised Duncan they would return after blowing a 2-0 lead in the conference finals a year ago to Oklahoma City, and speculation is picking up on whether this might be Duncan’s final season in the NBA. “I think everybody on the team, we really wanted to do it for him,” Parker said.

The Spurs now wait for Miami or Indiana to come out of the East after they

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — With Nike’s help, Lance Armstrong’s Livestrong cancer charity turned a little yellow wristband into a global symbol for cancer survivors.

Celebrities and rock stars sported them on stage. Politicians wore them on the campaign trail and in the White House.

And with Armstrong dominating the Tour de France, the trendy little pieces of plastic helped Livestrong pump millions of dollars in cancer survivor programs and spawned countless imitations.

But that partnership, which started in 2004, will soon end. Livestrong announced Tuesday the shoe and apparel company is cutting ties with the charity in the latest fallout from the former cyclist’s doping scandal.

Nike said it will stop making its Livestrong line of apparel after the 2013 holiday season.

Foundation and company officials said Nike will honor the financial terms of its contract until the deal expires in 2014.

Those terms were not disclosed, but the loss of revenue could have a huge financial impact on the charity. The partnership with Nike generated more than $100 million of the roughly $500 million raised by Livestrong since it was founded in 1997.

“While 2013 will be tougher than past years, the Livestrong Foundation views it as a rebuilding year in which it charts a strong, independent course,” the charity said in a statement.

Experts were divided whether Nike’s withdrawal would cripple the charity.

“It’s very damaging. It’s a significant signal to the market place that if your largest supporter says ‘I’m going to check out,’ it’s something that is likely to continue to spiral,” said Kelly O’Keefe, professor of brand strategy at the Virginia Commonwealth University Brandcenter.

San Antonio Spurs guard Tony Parker (9) looks to pass as Memphis Grizzlies center Marc Gasol (33) defends during Game 4 of the Western Conference finals in Memphis, Tenn., Monday. The Spurs defeated the Grizzlies 93-86 to advance to the NBA finals. swept two of their three opponents in the West. The Spurs took advantage of a three-day break in the conference finals to come into Memphis and beat a team that had lost only once on its home floor since Feb. 8.

They could use some time off between games after a physical series with the Grizzlies. The Spurs helped clamp down on Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol with Duncan, Tiago Splitter, Matt Bonner and Boris Diaw all taking turns pushing the Grizzlies away from their favorite spots on the floor in disrupting their

high-low game.

It worked quite well the Spurs outscored Memphis in the paint in the final three games. Randolph, who averaged at least 18 points in the first two playoff series, averaged only 11 against San Antonio.

“I know our bigs, they have a lot of bruises,” Parker said. “So it’s going to be great to rest. I know Timmy and Manu (Ginobili), they’re going to love the rest, and we’re going to regenerate and get ready for whoever we’re going to play.”

It won’t be easy to

remain in the rhythm that the Spurs used to drive repeatedly to the basket and pick apart Memphis on the pick-and-roll. Trying to keep that rhythm and stay in shape over the next week will not be fun, Bonner said.

But this is where all the experience Duncan, Ginobili and Parker have with Spurs coach Gregg Popovich will come into play.

“I can’t say we’ve all been there before, but our three leaders have been in the finals multiple times, and they’re going to lead the way,” Bonner said.

tance.

Among the winners Tuesday were 2010 French Open runner-up and 2011 U.S. Open champion Sam Stosur, who beat 42-yearold Kimiko Date-Krumm of Japan 6-0, 6-2.

“It was spitting a little bit when we went out there,” Stosur said. “You think, ‘Oh, are we going to start or are we not?’ Lucky for me, I was able to finish the match before this last downpour came.”

Another Australian, Bernard Tomic whose father was barred from Roland Garros after being accused this month of headbutting Tomic’s hitting partner stopped because of a torn right hamstring while trailing Victor Hanescu 7-5, 7-6 (8), 2-1.

Three other men retired during matches: No. 28 Florian Mayer (right thigh), Alejandro Falla (stomach

problems), Simone Bolelli (right wrist).

No. 9 Stanislas Wawrinka, No. 12 Tommy Haas and No. 16 Philipp Kohlschreiber and No. 26 Grigor Dimitrov advanced, along with 20-year-old American Jack Sock in his French Open debut.

If Dimitrov he and Maria Sharapova are an item, so he was asked Tuesday about dealing with paparazzi reaches the third round, he could face Djokovic. That would be an intriguing matchup, given that Dimitrov defeated Djokovic on clay at Madrid three weeks ago.

“This is the kind of matches I’d always want to play in,” Dimitrov said. “I feel good on the big courts and playing against good players.”

Djokovic found Goffin in possession of that same attitude.

said Livestrong can survive because it has a solid organization that established a distinct identity among cancer-fighting groups.

“Losing Nike’s sponsorship by no means signals the end of Livestrong,” Lenkowsky said.

The charity insisted it remains on solid financial ground.

“This news will prompt some to jump to negative conclusions about the foundation’s future. We see things quite differently. We expected and planned for changes like this and are therefore in a good position to adjust swiftly and move forward with our patientfocused work,” the foundation said.

The organization reduced its budget nearly 11 percent in 2013 to $38.4 million, but said Tuesday that revenue is already 2.5 percent ahead of projections.

The foundation also noted that last month, it received a four-star rating from Charity Navigator, which evaluates charities based on financial health, accountability and transparency.

Less than a year ago, the Nike-LivestrongArmstrong connection was arguably one of the strongest in the field of sports marketing.

Armstrong was the feelgood story of the cancer survivor who returned to dominate a grueling sport.

His success in the Tour de France winning the race every year from 1999 to 2005 helped turn the small charity he started in a house in Austin into a growing force, and it moved to a new level when Nike started churning out the wristbands in 2004.

Nike stood by Armstrong and Livestrong for years as the cyclist denied accusations of drug use. But the relationship soured last year when the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency released a massive report accusing Armstrong of leading a complex doping program on his U.S. Postal Service teams.

Nike dropped its personal sponsorship of Armstrong last October.

French Open ■ CONTINUED FROM 13 we have been waiting for hours and hours. I think I warmed up five or six times today,” Djokovic said. “In these conditions … you need to adjust your game and tactics, because it’s quite different than comparing to the conditions when it’s dry and sunny.”

Even though his match against the 58th-ranked Goffin, a Belgian who was one of the revelations at Roland Garros a year ago, was the second to be played on Court Philippe Chatrier, they did not begin until after 6:30 p.m. They finished as light was fading shortly before 9 p.m.

“It was a long day,” Djokovic said.

At least he got to play.

Because of showers that began in the morning, there was a delay of more than 2 hours at the start. Then, after only 1 hours of action,

arrived another stop of more than an hour. All told, only 26 of 40 scheduled singles matches were completed, three were suspended in progress, and organizers wound up postponing 11 others entirely. That means players such as Victoria Azarenka, the reigning Australian Open champion, will be slated for firstround action Wednesday, the fourth day of the tournament (when, by the way, the forecast calls for more rain).

That sets up a situation where Azarenka, for example, would need to win seven matches across 11 days to take home the trophy, while 2002 champion Serena Williams who got to begin the tournament Sunday and is supposed to play in the second round Wednesday would have her seven matches spread over 14 days if she goes the dis-

In 2012, Goffin got into the French Open field as a “lucky loser” someone who loses in qualifying but is put in the main draw because another player withdrew and made it all the way to the fourth round.

That’s when Goffin got to face Roger Federer, his idol, and even took a set off the owner of the most career major titles before losing the match.

“He has a good chance to have a good future,” Djokovic said. “He likes playing here, obviously. He likes playing on a big stage.”

Perhaps. But Tuesday’s key moment came in the first-set tiebreaker, with Goffin serving at 5-all.

After he faulted once, a fan yelled, “Allez, David!” The 22-year-old Goffin then proceeded to miss his second serve, too, for a double-fault that gave Djokovic a set

point.

Goffin looked in the direction of the offending shout with palms up, as if to say, “What did you do that for?!”

“That’s what happens sometimes. When you play in Davis Cup, you see that on every serve, basically,” Goffin said. “Anyway, it was up to me to focus my mind.

This is the type of thing that can happen, and can happen to anybody. So tough luck.”
