To truly appreciate all things strawberry, one must get eye-level with the celebrated fruit. The berries were flying as festival-goers young and old tested their gastronomical skills at the annual pie-eating contest at the West Stage of the Strawbery Festival Saturday. Tyler Harvey experienced his sixth pie eating contest victory and shared his strawberry strategy. “Don’t try to chew too much and be determined,” the native Trojan

BY MELANIE YINGST Staff Writer myingst@tdnpublishing.com Arms were raised in joy — from both teams — as shots at the soccer net flew overhead during a nailbiting overtime as the Miami County Magic gave their “berry” best effort to defeat their opponents from Montgomery County. Yet, the girls and boys in blue from Montgomery County were declared the victors at the end of the game, 7-4, as teams from around the region participated in the Berry Special Olympics soccer matches at the Paul G. Duke Park Saturday. “Today’s the Strawberry

said after he swept the men’s division. More than 88 quarts of strawberries were gobbled up in mere minutes, according to the contest’s coordinator, Matt Watkins, who was “creamed” after the Celebrity Strawberry Showdown. “The reality sets in that I have to clean every single one of those strawberries,” said Watkins of the 100 strawberry pies prepared for the event. “Thankfully I had a lot of family to help. How can you go
wrong with kids eating whipped cream and strawberries without a spoon or fork?” More than 100 pies were devoured during the event and 12year-old Haley Howard swept her division for the fourth time in a row. “I do this every year,” Howard said as she wiped off the inch-thick whipped cream from her forehead. “It’s fun and challenging.”

The venue may have been different, but the Strawberry Festival marched on through the city streets in true Mardi Gras fashion. “It’s been awesome,” said Strawberry Festival manager Heather Dorsten. TROY “Response has been so ridiculously positive.” For 35 years, the Troy Strawberry Festival was held on the levee near the Great Miami River. Due to the reconstruction of the Adams Street Bridge, this year’s festival was moved to downtown Troy. Positive remarks about the festival’s move downtown included the wide open space of the city streets and accessibility for families with strollers and wheelchairs. “Booths were selling out of food and that’s a great problem to have on the first day,” Dorsten said. “Many of our craft vendors said

Downtown • Continued from A1 they were selling out of products, which is great for them, but there should be plenty of things for people for Sunday.” Dorsten said the festival shuttle bus service was a success, despite a wait at the WACO Air Museum for more than an hour. “There haven’t been too many complaints and we are working to get more buses for people for shuttles,” Sunday’s Dorsten said. Dorsten said she heard from several downtown businesses that the festival downtown was a hit.
“I talked with the folks at Round About Books and they had a great turnout and were thrilled,” Dorsten said. “It’s been a really good response.” Dorsten said the downtown venue was a “great change” and “something to think about.” Wednesday night’s set up went smoothly and only one generator was replaced Saturday, Dorsten said. Although Dorsten did not have an official crowd count, she said organizations selling out of food on Saturday shows the great response to the downtown relocation due to the Adams Street Bridge closing.
Troy Mayor Michael L. Beamish and his wife Ginny were at the Day of Caring’s “Holy Cannoli” booth to try the latest treat on the street. “The crowd speaks for itself,” Beamish said. “It’s been a beautiful day so far and from what we’ve been hearing people like the wide open space.” Beamish said he heard many positive remarks about the downtown streets being beneficial to those in wheelchairs and stroller accessible for families. “The handicapped can get to where they need to be and I thought that was
nice to hear,” Beamish said. “Whether it’s food or stuff, people have their hands full of things,” Ginny Beamish said. This year’s featured strawberry concoction was the “Holy Cannoli,” a strawberry and cheese Italian treat, which sold out of the more than 1,200 prepared desserts. The “Holy Cannoli” were part of the Day of Caring organization affiliated with both the Troy’s First United Church of Christ and the Polk Grove United Church of Christ in Dayton. The Day of Caring serves the homeless and hungry in both Dayton and Troy.
“It’s going fantastic,” said Steve Pax, an event coordinator for the Day of Caring. “It’s our first year here at the festival and you couldn’t ask for a better weekend.” Daytonian Pax said he was a former Troy resident and decided to bring the famous “Holy Cannoli” to the festival as a fundraiser for the Day of Caring. “The people in Troy are so great so we wanted to come out here to try the Strawberry Festival,” Pax said. The Strawberry Festival is open today from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Pie • Continued from A1 Yard after yard of paper towels whisked away the strawberry pie debris Saturday. One family from Beavercreek hauled two trophies from the pie eating event as a brother and sister team swept their
Soccer respective divisions. Brooke Grieshop, 7, of Beavercreek, along with her 10-year-old brother, Matthew, both were victorious in conquering the pie. Matthew also won the pie eating contest when he was 7 years old. “Keep your face in the pie and take a breath every
few seconds,” Matthew said of his plan of attack. “Don’t look up until your done.” The siblings traveled from Beavercreek with their parents Ellen and John Grieshop. The Grieshops said they come to the Strawberry Festival each year as a fun family event.
“I’ve been coming for the last 25 years — we have to go every year,” Ellen said. “The food is great. I enjoy the crafts and we all have a lot of fun.” The event is sponsored by Clopay, Main Street Market and Jumpy’s Fun Zone.
Cargo plane crashes in Ghana’s capital Boeing 727 hits bus, kills all 10 inside vehicle ACCRA, Ghana (AP) — A Boeing 727 cargo plane attempting to land at the international airport in Ghana’s capital crashed Saturday, slamming into a bus loaded with passengers on a nearby street, killing all 10 people inside the vehicle, emergency responders and airport officials said. The crash occurred in Accra near Kotoka International Airport, which sits near newly built high-rise buildings and hotels. Witnesses said the plane first smashed through the fence that runs around the airport before hitting the bus. Local television showed images of the plane lying
across a road with its tail damaged as the flight crew jumped off and received help from emergency responders. Police and soldiers quickly cordoned off the neighborhood where the plane crashed. Anaglate, Billy spokesman for the Ghana Fire Service, said that all 10 passengers in the bus were killed on impact. The plane’s four crew members survived the crash and were rushed to a local hospital for treatment. “What happened is that the Allied (Air) Cargo plane, actually I was told, was traveling from Nigeria to Ghana. At the landing it was short of the boundary, and it went off onto the
roadside. It crashed into a bus,” said Anaglate, who was reached by telephone late Saturday. “… (The plane) broke the barrier and went onto the road and hit the vehicle and unfortunately in the vehicle everyone ended up dying. The poor people were killed.” Doreen Owusu Fianko, the chief executive of the Ghana Airport Co., said that operations at the airport had returned to normal after the crash Saturday. Fianko, who addressed reporters at a press conference hours after the accident, said the plane was coming from Lagos, the commercial capital of Nigeria, when it
crashed after a failed landing attempt. Witnesses said the plane was labeled as belonging to Allied Air Cargo, a fact confirmed by Anaglate. The name and symbols on the aircraft matched those of the Nigerian air freight company based out of Lagos. Telephone numbers for the company in London, Lagos and the Nigerian city of Port Harcourt rang unanswered Saturday night. Ghana, a nation of more than 25 million in West Africa, has not had a major airplane crash in recent years. The last air emergency the country had was in June 2006, when a TAAG Linhas Aereas De Angola flight to Sao Tome hit birds during takeoff.

• Continued from A1 Maria Schafer coached the Miami County Magic and shared how hard the team members worked to prepare for the Berry Special Olympics games. “They were so excited to play today,” Schafer said. “They talked about it every practice.” Goalie Joshua Reynolds tried to keep the Montgomery County players from scoring. “You got to be very careful about people flipping over your back at these games — but I did my best,” Reynolds said. “We do this (soccer tournament) every year and I’m going to do the 2K Run tomorrow,” said 18-year-old Wilkinson. Elizabeth Wilkinson said she’ll be up bright and early for the 2K Shortcake Strawberry Run at Troy Memorial Stadium, beginning today at 7:45 a.m. Wilkinson said her favorite part of the festival is, of course, the Troy Music Boosters’ strawberry doughnuts because “They are so good!” Paul Brown, coordinator for the Berry Special Olympics, said more than 65 athletes participated in various events, including six teams playing volleyball at Riverside of Miami County Board of Developmental Disabilities gymnasium. The athletes came from five different counties this year, including a team from Sandusky County. Brown said more than 14 teams had participated in events before, but due to traveling expenses and the economy, turnout was lower this year. “This is a great event because everybody walks away a winner,” Brown said. “Everyone comes out, has a great time and they recreate together and enjoy a beautiful day.” Brown said the events for athletes such as Karnehm and Wilkinson are unique outside the official statewide Special Olympics held each year. “We started this in 2000 to get our folks involved in the festival and events such as the soccer tournament have grown,” said Brown, adding that he knows no other festival or fair that hosts events like the Berry Special Olympics like Troy’s Strawberry Festival. “This tournament is a little more relaxed and laid-back so everyone looks forward to it — it’s all about coming out and having fun.” “We continue to try and get as many folks involved in the community,” Brown said. Brown serves as supervisor of recreational services at Riverside of Miami County Board of Developmental Disabilities and is the local coordinator for the Special Olympics.

Documents may be released WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Department of Justice says at least some materials sealed as part of the court case against seven men involved in the 1972 Watergate burglary should be released. The agency responded Friday to a request by a Texas history professor who is seeking access to materials he believes could help answer lingering questions about the burglary that led to President Richard Nixon’s resignation. Justice attorney Elizabeth Shapiro wrote in a court document filed Friday that the office would not oppose the release of at least some documents.

Park district to officially open Paul G. Duke Memorial Bikeway The Miami County Park District will officially open the “Paul G. Duke Memorial Bikeway” at 10 a.m. June 8. The opening will take place in the parking lot of the Apostolic Church of Christ, 1624 N. County Road 25-A. The section of bikeway is located on the original site of the Duke Nurseries and was funded by The Paul G. Duke Foundation and the Clean Ohio Trails Fund. “It seems fitting that this section of bikeway be named in Mr. Duke’s honor — after all, this is where he started his business,” said J. Scott Myers, executive director of the Miami County Park District. A unique feature of this section of trail is the re-use of the old FairviewSnodgrass Road Bridge that was donated by the county engineer.
TROY “It seems fitting that this section of bikeway be named in Mr. Duke’s honor — after all, this is where he started his business.” — J. Scott Myers, Miami County Park District The “Paul G. Duke Memorial Bikeway” extends from Lytle Road north to Eldean Road. “This section is a vital link as we continue toward connecting the bikeway between Troy and Piqua,” Myers said. Construction on the final section, which will join the Twin Arch Reserve trail to Peterson Road by way of a bridge over the Great
Miami River, is set to begin in fall 2013. The first sections of the bikeway were constructed more than 10 years ago with the goal of someday connecting Piqua to Montgomery County. Today, hundreds of residents use the bikeway each day. “The bikeway adds to the high quality of life in Miami County. Whether you walk, run or bike, it’s a great way to get outside and get healthy,” Myers said. Patricia Duke Robinson leads The Paul G. Duke Foundation, which was established by her father in 1983. The Paul G. Duke Foundation is strongly committed to carrying on Mr. Duke’s philanthropic tradition of supporting non-profit organizations primarily in Miami County where the Duke Garden Centers originated.

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP The Daily Gazette, Schenectady, N.Y., on Facebook’s initial public offering. When investors, be they large institutions or small individuals, put money into a stock, they have to accept the possibility that their investment won’t pan out. That’s probably truer of an initial public offering for a stock than of one that’s already been trading, because not only is there more known about the latter company, its stock has some kind of track record. Still, investment bankers that underwrite IPOs provide their institutional clients — who usually get first dibs — with information about the company’s performance, so these preferred clients can make educated guesses as to the IPO’s prospects. When the IPOs are winners, the stocks take off like rockets on the first day of trading, and the institutions can flip them for handsome profits, or hang on for bigger long-term gains. By now, everyone knows that’s not what happened with the muchanticipated, heavily hyped Facebook IPO May 18. And while many institutional investors bought less of the stock beforehand or unloaded immediately that day, apparently because they’d been tipped off by underwriters that the company’s prospects had dimmed since the initial prospectus was issued, many retail investors who didn’t get that information bought more than they should have and got stuck holding the bag, which is now worth anywhere from onefifth to one-third less than they paid for it. Understandably, they’re demanding to know what happened, and have found sympathetic ears in Washington. Loveland (Colo.) Reporter-Herald on eliminating voter fraud: When a report showed that thousands of registered voters in Florida were, in fact, dead, it played directly into the suspicions that some have about the prevalence of voter fraud. You see, some people — on both sides of the political debate — believe the only way their opponents can win is through cheating. The interesting supplemental fact, however, to the dead voter report is the fact that no cases of voter fraud have been documented directly from the revelation. When Florida lawmakers authorized the expansion of database searches for voter registration purposes, they put into place a mechanism that would produce exactly this result: finding voters who had died in other states but whose passing was not previously noted by local elections officials. In Florida, that’s an all-too-common occurrence, because many older voters live in other states during the summer months but have Florida addresses come November, when Election Day arrives. What the showing from Florida reveals is that increased linking of databases will help to clean up voter registration rolls much more efficiently for cases where people have multiple addresses or parttime residences. States such as Arizona and Texas also face many instances of split residencies. The discovery that some people on a voter registration roll are no longer living or are newly naturalized citizens should not be taken as direct evidence of fraud; in fact, the discoveries should be celebrated for the fact that it means election officials are staying on top of their duties to ensure those who are eligible to vote may do so, and those who would be tempted to cheat have far fewer means to do so.
THEY SAID IT “Today, stand in remembrance of those who have come home. Some say those were the lucky ones. But they remember every day those who were lost … their pain continues today.” — Troy American Legion Post No. 43 Commander Bruce Ball, during Memorial Day services at Riverside Cemetery “It’s a great ride for families. We have a ride event for people of all ages and we had a lot of families last year and we look forward to them coming back again.” — Troy Strawberry Festival Bike Tour Chairman Larry Smith “We sell 54 dozen doughnuts every seven minutes. So getting that many doughnuts from the fryers to the downtown site was something we had to think about this year.” — Troy High School band director Kathy McIntosh, on the Troy Music Boosters strawberry doughnut sales at the Troy Strawberry Festival

It’s not a zombie apocalypse? Too bad This has been a pretty bad week to be a zombie movie fan. Or a good one, depending on your point of view. Personally, I find the whole faceeating incident in Miami to be a little played out. Last weekend, a 31-year-old man named Rudy Eugene chewed the face quite literally off of a homeless man, 65-year-old Ronald Poppo. When police attempted to intervene, Eugene ignored them completely. When he was shot, he merely growled and continued his gruesome attack. Police proceeded to fire on Eugene until he was dead — no reports on whether or not they hit him in the head — and saved Poppo’s life in the process, although he had lost 75 percent of his face. Once details of the attack hit the Internet, it spread faster than a zombie-producing contagion. Zombie fanboys of all ages proclaimed “the zombie apocalypse is upon us!” They shared the story over every social media site imaginable, each time prophesizing the world’s doom at the hands of the flesh-eating undead. Ad nauseum. Sunday afternoon, it was still mildly amusing. By Monday, the Internet had been taken over by people rooting for the zombie apoca-
which, if true, would put a whole new spin on Woodstock’s “don’t eat the brown acid” from back in the 1960s. And in an article on CNN.com, Eugene’s mother openly proclaims that her son “was no zombie.” Right. That’s exactly what a family member would think. “My son’s been bitten? Don’t worry, little one, Josh Brown you’ll be o … OW!” *chomp chomp Sunday Columnist chomp* She said that police used exceslypse, each time using the Miami sive force in stopping his grisly story as their evidence. On every attack, saying that “they could have search engine in existence, “zombie tased him.” apocalypse” was the top trending Again, sure.

Some reports say bath salts, surfaces. some say an extra-powerful LSD — But Poppo has been in the hospi-
tal for a week now and has not died, returned to life and begun eating everyone in the hospital — which is a good sign for us all. Instead, the poor man will have to undergo many reconstructive surgeries — he lost one of his eyes in the attack, as well — and will likely not get a face transplant. His road to recovery will be long and hard, and the Internet should be wishing him the best, both for unselfish reasons as well as the hopes he doesn’t return as a zombie. Then again, Eugene’s girlfriend — who describes the attacker as loving God and carrying his bible everywhere he went — claims that he may have been under a “voodoo curse” when he committed the attack. And voodoo, in addition to a religious kind of judgment day, is one of the more classic kickoffs for a zombie apocalypse — only in the last few decades has the theory of diseases been pushed and pushed hard. So we should remain ever vigilant. But still avoid the proclamations of fair-weather doomsayers. TDN Sports Editor Josh Brown appears Sundays. At least no one has written a terrible book about a sparkly zombie that falls in love with a generic, useless high school girl *cough* “Twilight” *cough*.

Waitress Ginny Hopkins sits at a table outside Johnny’s Downtown restaurant in Cleveland where she works, Saturday. Hopkins recently received a federal tax refund check for nearly $435,000, which she returned to the local IRS office. She is still awaiting her more modest refund from 2011.
Ohio waitress gets check for $434K CINCINNATI (AP) — If only it was a tip. Veteran Cleveland waitress Ginny Hopkins grabbed her mail on her way to work and found a federal tax refund check for nearly $435,000. She “laughed out loud,” then took the check with her to Johnny’s Downtown Restaurant to show around. She enjoyed the speculation for a couple days about what she could do with the apparent windfall. Her granddaughters were thinking tickets to see the popular boy band One Direction. She had other ideas. “Grandma hasn’t had a vacation in 28 years,” she said. “I would have gone to Hawaii.” It was all in fun. On Thursday, she said, she instead went to the Internal Revenue Service office in Cleveland with the check. “I’m here to give you a half million dollars,” she recounted telling employees. She said she had to show them a photo ID. “Like anybody would walk in and just give them a big check,” she said. She said the IRS employees politely told her the mistake
would be investigated internally. A message was left Saturday at the IRS office. A waitress for 40 years, she wouldn’t say how much she earned last year, but laughed and replied: “Not enough to warrant a refund like that.” She said she had originally filed her return in January with her son’s help, but an electronic filing glitch caused information on her return to get deleted. She filed an amended return in April, claiming a $754 refund. She still hasn’t gotten that. She said the IRS folks gave her information for checking on the status of her refund. She said next year, she’ll file her return requesting direct deposit of her refund. Hopkins, who spoke by telephone Saturday before heading to her job for her sixth day of work in the week, said she wasn’t sure what she would do if another $434,712 suddenly showed up in her bank account next year. “I’d have to start balancing my checkbook a lot better, I can tell you that,” she said.

Community program helps fill fresh food gap Reading Road to his apartment. “This is in our community, which is why I came over,” Jasper said. At the site of the former St. Michael’s and All Angels Church, which closed in 2008, Gabriel’s Place grew out of the desire of the Episcopal Diocese of Southern Ohio to maintain a presence in the neighborhood. After opening last fall, it has emerged as an urban oasis in its first spring: 150 individual households have shopped, most now regular customers, and 87 volunteers have contributed 340 hours of service to the market. The mix of projects, like the melding of generations, is what makes Gabriel’s Place different. Kathy Schwab, in her travels and work, has seen many food-related programs to alleviate food deserts the buzzword for the lack of groceries and fresh fruits and vegetables available in low-income
Actress Kathryn Joosten dies LOS ANGELES (AP) — Kathryn Joosten, a character actress best known as the crotchety, yet loveable, Karen McCluskey on “Desperate Housewives” and the president’s secretary on “The West Wing,” has died. She was 72. Joosten, who had battled lung cancer for 11
years, died Saturday at her home in Los Angeles, her publicist Nadine Jolson said. Joosten “was surrounded by love and humor ‘til the end,” her family said in a statement. Joosten won two Emmy awards for her portrayal of Mrs. McCluskey.
neighborhoods. “But I have never seen (a program) that combines all of these elements,” said Schwab, executive director of Local Initiatives Support Corp. Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky, the regional office of the national nonprofit to help resident-led projects in lowincome communities. The nonprofit provided some engineering and architectural services for Gabriel’s Place and pays the salary of its new program director, Troy Frasier, through its AmeriCorps program. Gabriel’s Place does have a model, though. The Milwaukee-based Growing Power program grows vegetables and raises fish, using a water-filtration process known as the aquaponic system, in abandoned factories in food deserts in Milwaukee and Chicago. Avondale’s community council, youth council, the Cincinnati-Hamilton County Community Action Agency and the Center for
Closing the Health Gap were involved with the Episcopal diocese at the site beginning in 2009. Forty members of the youth council grew vegetables on adjacent land purchased by the diocese. By 2010, the number in the Do Right Teen Garden program had expanded to 80 members of the youth council. Bishop Thomas Breidenthal said the diocese did not want to leave Avondale or abandon its urban mission. They listened to residents. “Everyone told us they didn’t have access to healthy food,” said Breidenthal, whose leadership of 10 partner agencies and $400,000 in diocese seed money for the project have helped it grow. The industrial kitchen and community room in the parish house next to the church will be ready this summer. The first session of a junior chef program through partner the Midwest Culinary Institute at Cincinnati State Technical and Community College, is forming.

OTTOVILLE, Ohio — Geraldine T. Grubenhoff 91, of Ottoville, died at 9:08 a.m. Friday, June 1, 2012, at St. Rita’s Medical Center. She was born Jan. 21, 1921, in Delphos, to the late Frank and Veronica (Elwer) Osting. She was united in marriage on Sept. 1, 1943, to Edwin Grubenhoff, who preceded her in death. She is survived by two daughters, Janet (Al) Mescher of Troy and Mary Jean (Ron) Schweller of Fort Jennings; three sisters, La Donna (Leo) Schmelzer of Delphos, Earlene (John) Williams of Delphos and Vera (Jim) Koester of Delphos; four brothers, Moletus Osting of Delphos, Alvin (Marilyn) Osting of Troy, Norm (Karen) Osting of Troy and Roger Osting of Cridersville; four grandchildren, Kevin Mescher, Diana (Scott) Myers, Jennifer (Bryan) Harris, and Julie (Doug) Kimmet; and seven great-grandchildren, Jason and Megan Myers, Beckett
and Isabella Harris, and Kaitlyn, Lauren and Madison Kimmet. In addition to her husband and parents, she was preceded in death by her brothers, Wilfred, Eugene, Urban, Ed and Earl, and sister, Marie. She enjoyed sewing, quilting (more than 60 quilts), gardening and canning. She especiallly enjoyed spending time with her family and friends. She was a member of Immaculate Conception Church. Services will be at 10:30 a.m. Monday, June 4, 2012, at Immaculate Conception Church, with the Rev. Fr. John Stites officiating. Burial will follow at St. Mary’s Cemetery in Ottoville. Visitation will be from 28 p.m. Sunday, June 3, 2012, at Harter and Schier Memorial Chapel, 209 W. Third St., Delphos. Memorial contributions may be made to the donor’s choice.

AVONDALE (AP) — Fifteen-year-old Marcelous Riggs does not know 49year-old Donna Cornett, and neither knows 82-year-old Milton Jasper. Yet these Avondale residents are linked through a unique ministry and community building program called Gabriel’s Place. It combines multiple sustainable projects garden plots, greenhouse (hoop house), fish hatchery for tilapia, market, industrial kitchen, youth cooking classes in a single, pastoral location with a single focus: food. Riggs, as a member of the Avondale Youth Council, worked last summer swinging a sledgehammer to break up an old concrete foundation where the Gabriel’s Place greenhouse now stands. Cornett is nurturing a 4-by-8-foot plot filled with plants that started as seeds growing cabbage, lettuce, beans and tomatoes vegetables for which Jasper paid $5.65 at the ministry’s farmers’ market and carried back across

Trojans ■ CONTINUED FROM A6 Saturday at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium. • Still Wanting More Only nine girls 4x200 relay teams competed on the season’s final day. And of those, a mere five teams in the state of Ohio were able to beat Troy. Still, the Trojans wanted and felt like they were capable of more. A coach couldn’t ask for a better attitude — especially out of a group of four underclassmen. Freshman Gracie Huffman and juniors Catelyn Schmiedebusch, Ashley Rector and Todda Norris finished sixth in the state, running a time of 1:42.82 — missing their best time by fractions of a second on the biggest stage they’ve seen. And with the season finally over, they could all rest after collecting their hardware. “Dead tired,” Huffman said when asked how she felt. “I had a lot of fun here and got to know the girls a lot more.” Rector, who was slowed by tightness during Friday’s preliminaries and was walking around with ice on her thigh after the race, echoed that. “We’re pushing through at the end of the season. It’s hard every year, no matter when it ends,” Rector said. “Throughout most of the season, you might be disappointed in a race, but there’s always the next day.” And the anchor leg and vocal leader of the team said it all. “I’m happy we got sixth, but I felt like we could have been up there,” Norris said. “(The race)
was fast. I just tried to do the best I could for my team.” For Schmiedebusch — who ran the relay all season long until the beginning of the postseason to focus on her hurdles races — getting the state experience was a surprise. “I didn’t know I’d be running it. It was a lastminute thing,” she said. “I left the meet yesterday, and coach said I’d be running today. I’m glad I got the experience (of running at state). You never know when you’re going to get it again.” But with all five members — sophomore Shanelle Byrd ran in the preliminary heat Friday and got state experience, as well — coming back next season, hopes are high. “We don’t have any seniors, and we’re all coming back next year,” Huffman

But we also have a team that strives to be better, no matter what we do.” • The Highest Note Nick James didn’t begin Saturday the way he wanted to. He finished it better than he realized at the time. While resting up and waiting to collect his second medal of the day after finishing seventh in the 200, the Troy senior was informed of his time by an official — and he lit up
even as the words were being spoken. “I ran 22:05 (seconds),” James said, smiling. “I finally broke the school record. I’d tied it three times this year, and I finally got it here at the state finals. “That’s how you end your senior year on a good note.” Earlier in the day, James ran a time of 11.09 seconds in the 100 to finish eighth — which netted him his first medal of the day. “I felt pretty tight, didn’t get out of my blocks well — I just didn’t run like myself,” he said. “It may have been nerves, first race in the state finals. But in the 200, I was a little calmer and did a little better.” It was a particularly special feat considering that James had never been past the district level in an individual event prior to this year. “I hadn’t been to the regional in open events, I’d only made it on a relay before,” he said. “To make it all the way to state and place twice, that’s a pretty big improvement. “I lifted a lot of weights, ran a lot of indoor track, worked on my form, got stronger and got in better shape. And it all paid off.” And he got to end his high school career on a high note. “Anyone that can make it to state should feel fortunate. I’ve enjoyed the ride the whole way,” James said. “You don’t think about things like that when you’re a freshman. But I’m just happy to be here.” The medals don’t hurt, either.

Logano wins at Dover DOVER, Del. (AP) — Joey Logano had wasted enough shots at winning Dover to feel like he was on the brink of doing it again. Out in front for most of the race, Logano fell back after a four-tire pit stop, paving the way for Ryan Truex to take the lead. Back in the pack, Logano wondered if he’d blown another win at Dover. “I was thinking the same thing was happening today,” Logano said. “It figures.” Logano instead powered his way to the lead with six laps left when Truex got mired in lapped traffic on Saturday to win the Nationwide Series race at Dover International Speedway. “When you lead it and you think you gave it away, and then you get it back there at the end,” Logano said, “that’s exciting.” Truex started from the pole and raced for the first time since he needed an appendectomy nearly two weeks ago. He had the top car toward the end of the race until he got loose with less than 10 laps left.
CLEVELAND (AP) — Joe Mauer broke out of a slump with three hits and three RBIs, including a tworun homer, to lead the Minnesota Twins to a 7-4 win over the Cleveland Indians on Saturday night. Mauer entered the game in an 0-for-10 skid, but had an RBI single in Minnesota’s four-run first inning. He also singled in the second and hit a tworun homer in the seventh off Tony Sipp. Trevor Plouffe’s one-out homer in the sixth off Josh Tomlin (2-3) broke a 4-all tie. Brian Duensing (1-2) pitched two scoreless innings as the Twins won for the fourth time in five games. Matt Capps pitched the ninth for his 11th save. The Indians have lost six of eight, due primarily to poor starting pitching. Cleveland’s starters are 2-6 with a 9.52 ERA in the last eight games. Mauer was behind the plate Saturday for the first time since being hit in the
face mask with a foul tip Monday. Minnesota sent nine men to the plate in the first off Tomlin, who needed 32 pitches to get through the inning. Mauer and Justin Morneau had RBI singles and Plouffe added a tworun single with the bases loaded. Twins starter P.J. Walters couldn’t hold the lead and didn’t get through the fifth inning. The righthander allowed four runs in 4 1-3 innings. The Indians scored in the first on Michael Brantley’s fielder’s choice with the bases loaded and again in the third on Asdrubal Cabrera’s RBI single. Lou Marson’s RBI groundout cut the lead to 43 in the fourth. Brantley tied the game with an RBI single in the fifth that extended his hitting streak to 11 games. Walters appeared to tweak his right arm earlier in the inning when he attempted a pickoff throw to first base after Jason
Kipnis singled. Walters stepped behind the mound and was visited by manager Ron Gardenhire and a trainer. He remained in the game without throwing a warmup pitch. Walters retired Cabrera, but gave up singles to Jose Lopez and Brantley before being replaced by Duensing. Singles by Denard Span and Ben Revere started the first-inning rally. Mauer’s single to left scored Span and Morneau’s one-out single to right made it 2-0. After a walk loaded the bases, it looked like Tomlin might avoid further damage when Brian Dozier’s ground ball forced Mauer at home, but Plouffe followed with a two-run single. The Indians loaded the bases with one out in the first, but scored only one run on Brantley’s fielder’s choice. Kipnis started the third with a single, stole second and scored on Cabrera’s single to left. Cabrera was thrown out at second trying for a double by Josh Willingham.

Tippecanoe’s Grant Koch (5) runs in a pack early in the 800 Saturday at the Division I State meet at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium.
Red Devils ■ CONTINUED FROM A6 Wharton shattered the Tippecanoe High School record and his own PR by running a 9:01.24, dominating the field in the state finals — all except Reynoldsburg’s for Tsehaye Hiluf, who broke the D-I record in 8:55.04 to win the race. “It was brutal,” Wharton said. “We started out a little slower than I would’ve liked, but then (Hiluf) picked it up and made it a good race.” Copley’s Nicholas Pupino was third in 9:10.55, while Anderson’s Nick Vogele — who Wharton was runner-up behind at the regional meet — was a distant fourth in 9:13.92. “I knew if Vogele was still in it with two laps to go, he’d be dangerous,” Wharton said. “So I tried to put him away as quick as I could. Then I stayed with Tsehaye and tried to outkick him at the end, but it was all I could do to keep up with him.” And although Tippecanoe is new to D-I this year after many years in D-II, Wharton is no stranger to that level of competition — during cross country season in the fall, he was second behind Hiluf in the state meet, as well. “He’s a fierce competitor, and he’ll do whatever it takes to win,” Wharton said. “He took control of the race and didn’t let anyone else dictate. He ran his race.” Both Wharton and Hiluf broke the Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium record, but Hiluf got the meet record and D-I mark. It wasn’t good enough for the all-divisions record, though — Sandusky Perkins’ Scott Fry set the in D-II in 1985 by running 8:49.4. And even though he ran such a landmark race, Wharton – who was second at state in D-II in the event last year – still wanted a little more. He was visibly disappointed once he saw his time was above nine minutes. “At the beginning of the year, my goal was to go 8:59, to break the nine-
minute barrier as a junior,” he said. “That’s pretty rare for a junior to do. That would’ve been awesome. “I still have another year to do it. It’s a new high point for me. Anytime you can come into a field like this and get second … I’m happy with how I did.” • Gang’s All Here After surprise district and regional championships, Grant Koch had one more trick up his sleeve. The Red Devil junior broke his PR with a 1:55.24 in the state finals of the 800, laying claim to sixth place in the state in the process. “It feels amazing,” Koch said. “I’m really glad all of the training I did pair off this year.” Koch’s strength has been fighting through at the end of races, and Saturday was no different. As he waited to collect his medal, he struggled with a cramp in his leg that had hit near the race’s end – just like in the regional race. “This one hurt about five times as much,” he said with a laugh. “Today was good, though. We had a nice, cool day to run, so we were able to push through when it got tough in the last 200.” Another thing helping him along was all of the past Tippecanoe distance heroes there to cheer him and Wharton on. “It helps a lot,” Koch said. “When we were freshmen, some of them were seniors or graduated already. To have people like Kevin Fink, Tyler Feitshans, Jason Salyer, state champ Katie Landwehr … these are all people we’ve looked up to the whole time. It’s nice to see them here when it’s our turn to step up.” And the Devils are far from done. “Sam and I will be back next year, and we’re hoping to get Ricky Andrews here, too, and we’ve got some good girls coming up,” Koch said. “We’re excited for next year already, even though this one just ended.”

Triple Crown bids often come undone at Belmont By The Associated Press A nose. That’s all that separated Real Quiet from racing immortality.

Another in the Belmont. But 10 other rivals are likely, including Derby alsorans Dullahan, Optimizer and Union Rags. The others are horses that skipped one
or both of the first two legs, leaving them well-rested for the 1 1-2 mile run around the deep, sandy dirt track. “It ain’t like the old days where everyone used to run
in all three,” said Hall of Fame jockey Mike Smith, who is 1 for 13 in the Belmont. “It’s taxing on the horse to run in all three. If somebody is hiding behind the bushes waiting to jump you when they’re all fresh, they can beat you.” Smith will be aboard one of the fresh ones in next Saturday’s Belmont. He’ll ride Paynter, who skipped the Derby and Preakness. Nineteen times since 1944 horses have come to the Belmont with a chance to win the Triple Crown. Big Brown was the last horse to take a shot in 2008. But he bombed out in the Belmont, mysteriously getting eased at the top of the stretch and leaving nearly 95,000 fans stunned at the sight of the colt with the bad feet failing to finish. The final 1 1-2 miles on the Triple Crown trail can do a number on a horse, trainer and jockey.

Levin holds lead at Memorial DUBLIN, Ohio (AP) — Spencer Levin realizes that a one-shot lead going into the final round means next to nothing. If he didn’t learn this by blowing a six-shot lead at the Phoenix Open earlier this year, he was reminded of it on the back nine Saturday at the Memorial. For the longest time, Levin simply couldn’t miss. He chipped in for eagle from behind the fifth green. He holed a chip from 30 yards short of the 10th green for birdie, this one giving him a four-shot lead on a tough day at Muirfield Village. Eight holes later, his lead AP PHOTO was down to one over Rory Spencer Levin watches his tee shot on the 14th hole Sabbatini. during the third round of the Memorial golf tournaIf that wasn’t enough, a ment Saturday in Dublin, Ohio. collection of stars and
proven players were lined up behind him including four-time Memorial champion Tiger Woods. Levin relied on a few good breaks and one good par save to match the low round of the day with a 3under 69, giving him another chance at his first PGA Tour victory and an opportunity to get into the U.S. Open on Sunday without having to go through a 36-hole qualifier. The circumstances are far different from when Levin lost that six-shot lead in Phoenix, not only the margin but the caliber of players chasing him. He’ll find out Sunday if he learned from his failure, though the self-styled Californian already is
loaded with perspective. “I did learn that I still got to play golf, I still got to eat the same stuff, still have the same friends, still have the same family, so nothing really changed,” he said. “Obviously, you want to win when you’re in positions. But I’m just going to go out there tomorrow and have fun. Nothing really changed in my life, and I don’t think anything will change that big in my life if I do win. It’s just going out there and try and do my best.” It might take more than that. Levin, who had one of only three rounds in the 60s, was at 8-under 208 and will play in the final group with Sabbatini, a six-time PGA Tour winner who shot 71.
The attention figures to be on the twosome in front of them Rickie Fowler (69), the Quail Hollow winner who has been playing his best golf over the last month, and Woods, whose other win this year came in demanding conditions at Bay Hill. Woods bogeyed two of the last three holes for a 73. Right behind them were Ryo Ishikawa (71), Henrik Stenson (71) and Jonathan Byrd (72), with Vijay Singh (69) on the outskirts of contention, six shots behind. “Four shots is definitely manageable around this golf course, considering the conditions and what they’re going to be tomorrow,” Woods said. “A lot of guys are still in this ballgame. It’ll be an exciting day tomorrow.”

Ferrer of Spain, Youzhny used the toe of his right sneaker to carve a mea culpa in the red clay near the baseline. He etched out “SORRi!” stamping the dot atop the lowercase last letter for emphasis before heading to the sideline for a changeover. “People in the stands may not have noticed, but I think I had to do this,” Youzhny said after his 6-0, 6-2, 6-2 loss. “There was a lot of people. That’s why I write ‘sorry’ because I can’t show them a nice game,” he explained. “The way we played in the beginning, it was not really interesting for people.” Ferrer, who said he didn’t see Youzhny’s lettering, was part of Spain’s 5-0 showing Saturday, led by Rafael Nadal, who contin-

Whether it’s 6-0, 6-0, whether it’s a tough threeset match, you’re trying to do what you have to do.” Sharapova’s section of the draw seems to be getting a bit easier by the hour.

After seeing his team’s 15-point lead dwindle to four, Durant took over midway through the fourth quarter by scoring all 16 of the Thunder’s points during a span of just over 5 minutes to keep the Spurs at bay. With All-Star teammate Russell Westbrook limited to seven points, Durant did almost all of the damage late to send the series back to San Antonio all square for Game 5 on Monday night. The three-time scoring champion hit three
straight jumpers, the last one coming after he bumped into Tony Parker in the lane to draw a foul and set up a three-point play. Then he attacked the rim for his next three baskets, getting to the line again when he was fouled on a layup off of James Harden’s alleyoop. Durant hit another jumper after coming off a Westbrook screen for the last basket in his personal run and the Spurs were still within striking distance. Rookie Kawhi Leonard bracketed a pair of 3-pointers around that Durant jumper, and the Spurs were only down 102-96 with 1:24 left. The Spurs succeeded in getting the ball out of Durant’s hands on the next possession, only for him to provide the assist on Harden’s 3-pointer from the left wing that bumped the lead to nine.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — Players testing positive for marijuana in the mighty Southeastern Conference do not face the one-year suspension that comes from getting busted by the NCAA. In the most successful league of the BCS-era, players routinely get third, fourth and even fifth chances before they’re booted from the team; failed drug tests administered by the NCAA result in the automatic suspension. The finding comes from an Associated Press examination of the drug policies at 11 current members of the SEC. Vanderbilt, a private institution, declined to make its rules available. All the SEC schools
the AP looked at had far more lenient drug policies than the NCAA, though the penalties varied widely. The NCAA conducts its own drug checks and leaves testing policies to the schools, but the governing body released a report in January saying that more than a quarter of college football players admitted in 2009 that they smoked marijuana in the previous year. Just how many suspensions for recreational drug use are handed down in the SEC or any NCAA-affiliated conference is unknown because privacy rules prohibit schools from disclosing positive tests. They’re not even required to tell the NCAA.

Americans preoccupied with protein Nutrient found in unique sources BY MICHAEL HILL Associated Press Carbs? Calories? Fat? They are so very last decade. Dieters and would-be healthy eaters know the nutrient of the moment being tallied, sought and bought is protein. Spurred by trainers, diet gurus and weight-loss plans, Americans are seeking more and more unique sources of protein, from almonds ground into milk and soy reshaped as pasta, to peas and whey turned into powders and shakes. And food producers are happy to oblige. Powders and energy bars packed with 20, 30 or even more grams of protein per serving are selling briskly. Supermarket shelves once crowded with foods boasting of being high in fiber or low in fat now are jammed with claims of protein content. Yet this is happening even as Americans eat less meat, the go-to source of protein for generations. “People are getting smarter about foods in general,” said Phil Lempert, a food marketing expert known as The Supermarket Guru. He sees higher meat prices driving people to other sources of protein, a movement that has becoming more pronounced this year. “Longer term, I think you’re going to see people starting to look at more vegetables and different combinations to create proteins like rice and beans.” Amanda Perry an on-the-go mom with two jobs and a 1-yearold is a good example. She counts on lots of protein to keep her feeling full and full of energy. But she needs it to be portable, so she often mixes protein powder with almond milk, maybe a banana and some peanut butter.

Amanda Perry mixes a protein shake for lunch at her home in Tyngsborough, Mass., May 15. Perry, a gym owner and personal trainer, blends a vegan protein powder with almond milk, natural peanut butter, ice and a banana as a drink in her daily diet. A surge in protein as both a nutrient and a marketing element has been added to the American diet. “It’s easily portable, which I think is awesome for busy people because you’re on the run,” said Perry, a 31-year-old personal trainer who owns a gym in Chelmsford, Mass., with her husband. “You can’t really take a chicken breast or a piece of steak with you if you’re going to be out for several hours.” Red meat, a rich source of protein, is going through an especially bumpy run. Prices are up, and so are health concerns about beef and its saturated fat content. Americans are expected to consume about 15 percent less beef on a per capita basis this year compared to 2007, according to Steiner & Company, an economic consultant to the food industry. Per capita consumption of all red meat and poultry is expected to be down by 10 percent over the same period. But if forces are pushing people away from meat, health conscious Americans are simultaneously being lured to other sources

DETROIT (AP) — Easier credit, hot new cars and falling gas prices kept Americans buying vehicles at a strong pace in May despite bad economic news. May sales totaled 1.3 million cars and trucks, up 26 percent from the same month a year earlier. It was the best May for the industry since 2008. The good results surprised some analysts, since car sales usually hew closely to the performance of the stock market and to consumer confidence numbers. In May, confidence was wobbly and the stock market had its worst month in two years. “We should have had a disastrous new vehicle sales month, but consumers are still interested in the new products,” said Jesse Toprak, vice president of market intelligence for the car buying site TrueCar.com. “This was an anomaly.” Toprak thinks June sales will stumble as people weigh troubling headlines, like Friday’s report that

more health conscious and busier, protein bar sales are increasing because they are a convenient way to gain protein on the go,” said IBISWorld analyst Mary Nanfelt, adding that many protein bars are eaten after a workout to help the stressed-out muscles. Also popular are the proteinrich powders, often made with whey, once associated mostly with weightlifters looking to bulk up. Perry said her protein powders which are vegan because they sit in her stomach better make her feel more energetic. “I used to be afraid of it. And I have friends and clients who are sort of afraid of it. They think, ‘Oh, I’m going to gain too much weight, it’s too many calories.’ But what they don’t know and this is common for a lot of women is that they’re not getting enough calories, and they’re not getting enough protein.” Actually, most Americans eat plenty of protein.

of protein, such as nuts, beans, soy and seafood. Protein has had popularity peaks before think of the Atkins diet craze not so many years ago though this time there are a chorus of voices touting the benefits of protein-heavy regimens like the Paleo Diet, which stresses the lean meats and wild plants eaten by our ancestors. And it’s being helped along by accumulating evidence that plant-based protein can lower cholesterol levels and have other beneficial effects. A trip down the grocery aisle shows food makers are tuned in to this trend and happy to engage shoppers about it, from Yoplait Greek yogurts (“2X protein”) to Boca meatless lasagna (“21 g protein”) to Perdue chicken breast tenders (“excellent source of protein”). Like your protein concentrated? Analysts say sales are up for high-protein bars. “As Americans are becoming
available federal survey of what Americans eat, which covers 2007-2008, shows both men and women commonly consuming more protein than needed, sometimes by a third or more. Of course, the amount of protein needed varies by age, weight and activity level, though federal recommendations suggest 56 grams daily for a 154 pound man and 46 grams for a 126 pound woman. Those levels are not difficult to achieve if, say, you scramble eggs for breakfast, grab a couple of slices of pepperoni pizza for lunch and eat chicken and broccoli for dinner. “There’s this whole idea that I think a lot of people are plagued by that you have to get so much protein. And the truth is most of us do get enough protein and you don’t have to have as much as you think,” said Marisa Moore, an Atlanta-based dietitian and spokeswoman for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. People worried about protein might do better focusing on a healthy, diverse diet rather than counting grams. Margaret McDowell, a nutritionist with the National Institutes of Health’s Division of Nutrition Research Coordination, notes that lean meats and poultry, seafood and fat-free dairy products are all good ways to get protein. “If you can consume your foods from a normal diet, that would be preferable because foods give a lot of other things beside protein and it’s probably more tasty and enjoyable to eat a lean piece of grilled chicken,” McDowell said. “I only eat protein bars if I’m desperate, if I’m running for a long time or need a quick snack.” Proteins from meat, poultry, fish, eggs, and milk are “complete,” meaning they contain all the essential amino acids the body needs, while proteins in plants like beans and peas, grains, nuts, seeds, and soy are “incomplete” proteins because they lack in one or more of the essential amino acids.

U.S. unemployment rose for the first time in 11 months. He expects sales to pick up at the end of the year as the economy improves and the presidential election ends political uncertainty. But others don’t think the disappointing news will derail the industry’s recovery. “I don’t believe that the employment data in and of itself will have an impact,” said Ken Czubay, Ford’s U.S. sales chief. Czubay said dealer traffic was strong in May, particularly over Memorial Day weekend. Toyota led sales increases with an 87 percent rise from a year earlier, while Honda saw a 48-percent jump. In May 2011, both companies ran short of cars and trucks after the earthquake in Japan crippled their factories. But their showrooms are full again, and they’re rapidly gaining back the market share that they lost to competitors such as Hyundai and GM. Sales of the Toyota Prius hybrid

tripled from a year ago, while Honda Civic sales were up 80 percent. Chrysler reported a 30 percent increase, followed by Volkswagen at 28 percent and Nissan at 21 percent. Ford and Hyundai both saw gains of 13 percent. General Motors Co. was up 11 percent. Among the reasons car buyers put aside worrisome economic news: There’s pent-up demand. Consumers who held off buying new cars during the recession are reaching the point where they must replace their vehicles. The average truck on the road is a record 10.4 years old and the average car is 11.1, Ford economist Jenny Lin said. GM expects pentup demand from the recession to boost sales into next year as long as the economy keeps growing. Carmakers are rolling out new models faster than ever before, and they’re catching buyers’ eyes. New models usually fuel demand, even in a weak economy.

Stay or go? Some towns eyeing retreat from sea LOS ANGELES (AP) — Years of ferocious storms have threatened to gnaw away the western tip of a popular beachfront park two hours drive north of Los Angeles. Instead of building a 500-foot-long wooden defense next to the pier to tame the tide, the latest thinking is to flee. Work is under way to gauge the toll of ripping up parking lots on the highly eroded west end of Goleta Beach County Park and moving a scenic bike path and buried utility lines inland away from lapping waves. Up and down the California coast, some communities are deciding it’s not worth trying to wall off the encroaching ocean. Until recently, the thought of bowing to nature was almost unheard of. But after futile attempts to curb coastal erosion a problem expected to grow worse with rising seas

A man and woman walk in the parking lot at Ocean Beach in San Francisco May 24. In San Francisco, officials are mulling a significant retreat on its western flank, where the Great Highway is under assault from the Pacific Ocean. Right now, a beach parking lot that abuts the highway is crumbling into the sea just across the highway from the San Francisco Zoo. fueled by global warming there is growing acknowledgment that the sea is relentless and any line drawn in the sand is likely to eventually wash over. “I like to think of it as
getting out of the way gracefully,� said David Revell, a senior coastal scientist at ESA PWA, a San Francisco-based environmental consulting firm involved in Goleta and
other planned retreat projects. The issue of whether to stay or flee is being confronted around the globe. Places experimenting with retreat have adopted vari-
ous strategies. In Britain, for example, several sites along the Essex coast have deliberately breached seawalls to create salt marshes, which act as a natural barrier to flooding. In the U.S., the starkest example can be found in Alaska, where entire villages have been forced to move to higher ground or are thinking about it in the face of melting sea ice. Hawaii’s famous beaches are slowly shrinking and some scientists think it’s a matter of time before the state has to explore whether to move back development. Several states along the Atlantic coast have adopted policies meant to keep a distance from the ocean. They include no-build zones, setbacks or rolling easements that allow development but with a caveat. As the sea advances, homeowners promise not to build sea-

walls and must either shift inland or let go. Over the past half-century, the weapon of choice against a shrinking shoreline has been building a seawall or other defense. Roughly 10 percent of California’s 1,100-mile coast is armored. In Southern California, where development is sometimes built steps from the ocean, a third of the shore is dotted with man-made barriers. While such buffers may protect the base of cliffs, and the land and property behind them, they often exacerbate the problem by scouring beaches, making them narrower or even causing them to disappear. This is one reason state coastal regulators in 2009 turned down a proposal by Santa Barbara County to fortify an eroding section of Goleta Beach park lashed by periodic storms.
LONDON (AP) — It was a royal day at the races, as Queen Elizabeth II watched a horse with the courtly name of Camelot win the Epsom Derby on Saturday the kickoff to a four-day celebration of the British monarch’s 60 years on the throne. Later in the weekend the queen will make a trip down the River Thames, and then take in a concert, all accompanied by tens of thousands of her subjects, coming out to fete a monarch whose longevity has given her the status of the nation’s favorite grandmother. An armada of vessels from historic sailboats and barges to kayaks, lifeboats and military launches was mustering along the Thames ahead of today’s river pageant. The queen aboard the royal barge will lead the flotilla of 1,000 boats.

KENNEDY For the Troy Daily News 25 Years Ago: June 3-16, 1987 • TROY — The 11th annual Troy Strawberry Festival drew a record crowd of at least 150,000, according to festival chair Jan Manning. She stated the usual “slack times” were not slack and the events and booths were busy all weekend. Some of the clubs ran out of food, participation in the events was outstanding and wherever you went there were smiles. Allin-all, there were a few bumps, but the festival is being viewed as having a very successful year with the weather, the people, all the food and crafts … everyone seemed to have a great time! • PLEASANT HILL — Ken Saunders loves Pleasant Hill. And because of this love, he wants the village to look its best everyday and, as a councilman, he is hoping some new guidelines can be put into place will help the western Miami County village to be neat and tidy. Pleasant Hill is a nice community, but there have been complaints about people who have not kept their property tidy, or have junk in their yards, etc. Saunders stated he just wants to set up some “housekeeping” guidelines for everyone that would be in force all year long. Currently, the law allows the mayor to call for a cleanup once a year in May. Saunders also said that most of what is being considered is basic maintenance of a property. 50 Years Ago: June 3-16, 1962 • TROY — One of the worst fires in recent years hit the Pearson Building on Sunday (June 3) and gutted a large portion of the interior of the structure. The cost is estimated to be approximately $50,000. A new furniture store was planning to open in the building next week. The fire, which started near the elevator on the south wall, quickly spread after igniting and used the elevator shaft as a conduit to the roof. The blaze, which did significant damage to the roof, gutted the fourth and third floors and minor damage to other areas, is being blamed on faulty electrical wiring. (Columnist’s note: Less one month, almost to the day, this fire took place in the same building in which the Troy Sports Center is located. As in 1962, we are grateful to our firefighters for a job well done. The recent blaze, as well as the one 50 years ago, could have been so much worse if not for the great work of the fire department.) • WEST MILTON — The village of West Milton made the switch to dial-up telephone
HIGHLIGHT IN HISTORY 120 Years Ago: June 316, 1892 • STAUNTON TOWNSHIP — The Methodist ladies at Raper Chapel on the Piqua-Troy Pike will hold a strawberries and ice cream festival for the benefit of the church and its pastor.

service on June 3, according to a spokesman at the General Telephone Co. of Ohio. The change was made without any problems and now customers in the West Milton area can dial directly to other areas and can be reached by the same method. Also installed at the same time in West Milton and Laura was the new seven-digit number system, which was easier to install while the direct dialing was being put in place rather than coming back later to change the system. 75 Years Ago: June 3-16, 1932 • DAYTON — An estimated $500,000 in damage was done by an enormous fire which destroyed most of a block in the industrial district in the Gem City. It is believed the conflagration broke out in the Hoban Brass Foundry and then quickly ravaged the Gonert & Lienesch Box Co. lumber yard before spreading to the The Buckeye Iron & Brass Works Foundry, which also was extensively damaged. The blaze necessitated the work of 12 fire companies to contain and then extinguish the fire. A 70,000-gallon fuel tank also was protected by the fire fighting crews. The block where the fire took place is bounded by Wyandot, East Third and Shawnee streets. Three firemen were injured during the action, but all will recover. • TIPPECANOE CITY — The Tipp City High School Dairy Judging team brought home first place in the state contest at the Ohio State University last week. The competition is held by the vocational agricultural department of the university. As a result of the achievement, the team was awarded a trip to Kansas City for the National Competition in the fall. Members of the judging team are: Charles and Robert Blauser and Warren Lee Beeson. On behalf of the team the school will receive a trophy cup for their achievement.

The reason for the relocation was a deal which was signed between the Spencer-Miller Co. and the Dayton, Troy and Piqua Railway Co. for the old property. The new location is owned by Daniel Spencer. The mill had been located on the old site for the past 20 years. 120 Years Ago: June 3-16, 1892 • TROY — A female baseball nine will be in town to challenge the high school nine, if they are willing. It is possible that even if the boys are ready the parents and guardians of the young men may not favor such a performance.

TV cameras trained on dogs during summer 2012 LOS ANGELES (AP) — Summer television used to mean reruns. This year it’s gone to the dogs. Several new shows star dogs and their owners in need of help. CBS has the lone network show in “Dogs in the City,” starring comic, dog trainer and businessman Justin Silver. It’s joined by documentaries on PBS and HBO and a series in the works for the Disney Channel, among others. Each Wednesday at 8 p.m., beginning May 30, Silver will try to help hound and human tackle unsettling problems like joint custody after divorce or dealing with significant others who just moved in. Is man or mutt usually to blame for problems? It’s 50-50, he said, but “a dog’s
behavior is shaped by the people in its life.” Silver says he won’t be the one solving problems, even though he jokes that he speaks dog. Instead he will provide techniques and experiences so owners can fix their own problems. “It’s that old adage: Give a man a fish and you’ll fill his belly. Teach him how to fish and he’ll never starve. I am teaching you how to fish. But no one learns how to fish perfectly in one hour. It takes constant practice.” If intervention is needed, he will call on his own pit bulls, Chiquita and Pacino. “I use my dogs as much as possible because the thing that influences dogs most is other balanced dogs,” he said. “Dogs in the City”

seems to have a lot in common with “The Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan” on the National Geographic Channel and “It’s Me or the Dog” with Victoria Stilwell on Animal Planet. “Bad Dog!” is another Animal Planet show, although it uses videotape to capture misbehavior in a test of sorts to see how far an owner’s love will stretch. Documentaries airing in May and June explore the rewards and redemption of shelter dogs. The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals says between 5 million and 7 million companion animals enter shelters every year and between 3 million and 4 million of them are euthanized.
“Shelter Me,” a PBS documentary, is narrated by actress Katherine Heigl and is sponsored by the pet food company co-owned by Ellen DeGeneres. It follows an animal control officer, adoption workers, female inmates who train rescue dogs, and vets who acquire former shelter dogs. “‘Shelter Me’ is about the lives that are changed when shelter pets are given a second chance,” Heigl said. Andrew J. Trotto, an Army veteran from Mission Viejo, was teamed up with Teka, a black Lab rescued from a Wyoming shelter by Freedom Service Dogs in Englewood, Colo. “If it wasn’t for her, I’d be dead right now,” Trotto says in the film.
“I was an evil person. I hated you or wanted to kill you,” he said, describing the PTSD demons that haunted him. “People say suicide is selfish. But when you are in the zone, you’re not thinking about that. The terror in your head drives you insane. She (Teka) will wake me up out of my night terrors.” “Shelter Me” will air across the country in late May and June. HBO will premiere a documentary called “One Nation Under Dog: Stories of Fear, Loss & Betrayal” on June 18 at 9 p.m. The film looks at America’s obsession with dogs, how far individuals will go for their pets and what it will take for people across the country to treat all dogs humanely.
The 73-minute documentary looks at the odds stacked against shelter dogs, spay and neuter education, puppy mills, dog bite victims and how some owners respond when their dog attacks. The Disney Channel also has a new dog show in the works for the fall and while it does involve a rescue dog, that’s where reality ends. The live-action, multicamera series called “Dog With A Blog” and revolves around a dog named Stan (who is really a 4-year-old named Kuma). In real life, Kuma is a husky, golden retriever and border collie mix who was rescued from a shelter. In the show, he is adopted to tame a pair of feuding stepbrothers. Turns out Stan can read, write and blog.

Can you teach kid to become bullyproof? Efforts about creating a culture of kindness BY BETH J. HARPAZ Associated Press NEW YORK — Teaching kids to become “bullyproof” is all the rage. Books, videos and websites promise to show parents how to protect their kids from being bullied; school districts are buying curricula with names like “Bully-Proofing Your School,” a well-regarded program used in thousands of classrooms. Even martial arts programs are getting into the act: “Bullyproofing the world, one child at a time,” is the motto for a jujitsu program called Gracie Bullyproof. But can you really make a child invulnerable to getting picked on? And even if you could, should the burden really be on potential victims to learn these skills, rather than on punishing or reforming the bullies? Parents and educators say when bullyproofing programs are done right, kids can be taught the social and emotional skills they need to avoid becoming victims. But bullyproofing is not just about getting bullies to move on to a different target. It’s also about creating a culture of kindness, beginning in preschool, and encouraging kids to develop strong friendships that can prevent the social isolation sometimes caused by extreme bullying. WHO’S GOT YOUR BACK? Bullies “sniff out kids who lack connections or who are isolated because of depression, mental health issues, disabilities or differences in size and shape,” said Malcolm Smith, a family education and policy specialist at the University of New Hampshire who has been researching peer victimization for more than 30 years. “So if you’re worried about your child being a victim, the best thing a parent can do from a very young age, starting in preschool, is ask, ‘Who’s got

This June 2010 photo provided by Lisa Suhay shows her son Quin Suhay, now 8, tackling Bill Odom, owner of Norfolk Karate Academy in Norfolk, Va., as part of a bullyproofing class that combines jujitsu — defensive moves only, no punching or kicking — with verbal strategies. Other types of bullyproofing programs, including guides for parents and regular classroom curricula, seek to make kids less vulnerable to being picked on by teaching them how to deal with teasing and how to make friends. your back? When you’re on the bus, when you’re in the hall, who’s got your back?’ If they can’t name someone, you should help them establish connections to their peers.” Smith, who is working on a program called “Courage to Care” that’s being tested in three rural New Hampshire schools, cited an example of a new boy who was being pushed and shoved by other boys in the hallway. “We didn’t know how to empower him,” Smith said, until the staff noticed that he’d become friends with a girl. “This girl is sweet but really assertive. What are seventh grade boys more afraid of than anything? Girls! So having her walk down the hall with this boy was the immediate solution to ending the bullying.” Psychologist Joel Haber, a consultant on the recent documentary “Bully,” says kids should also have “backup friends” outside school through sports, hobbies, summer camp or religious groups. “That’s hugely important, especially as kids move from elementary to middle school.”
EMOTIONAL SKILLS Haber says “most kids can learn skills to make themselves less likely to have the big reactions” that feed bullies. “Let’s say you’re one of those kids who, when I make fun of your clothes, you get really angry and dramatic. If I taught you in a role-play situation as a parent or a therapist to react differently, even if you felt upset inside, you would get a totally different reaction from the bully. And if you saw that kids wouldn’t tease you, your confidence would go up,” said Haber One way parents can help is to normalize conversations about school social life so that kids are comfortable talking about it. Don’t just ask “How was school today?” Ask, “Who’d you have lunch with, who’d you sit with, who’d you play with, what happens on the bus, do you ever notice kids getting teased or picked on or excluded?” advises Haber, who offers other bullyproofing tips and resources at RespectU.com. BODY LANGUAGE Bullies “feed on the body
A link between personality and Parkinson’s? Your personality sometimes can offer clues to your physical health. More than 50 years of research have confirmed, in the main, that aggressive, competitive Type A people are more likely to have heart attacks than calmer, more patient, Type B counterparts. Could there be a Type P? Kelly Sullivan, a researcher in neuroepidemiology at the University of South Florida’s Morsani College of Medicine, says there is evidence of an intriguing link between personality and Parkinson’s disease. She and a USF team found that patients with the condition are more likely to be cautious and avoid risk-taking. “They took fewer activity risks and had a greater preference for routine,” said Sullivan, who cautioned that this is a fairly small study that needs to be tested further. Researchers interviewed 89 people with Parkinson’s and 99 who didn’t have the disease. They were asked about their personalities in early adulthood and today. Did they ride roller coasters, motorcycles, wear seat belts, gamble or like to fly in small airplanes? Did they tend to plan out their days and stick to a schedule, including going to bed and rising at the same time throughout their lives? “Those with Parkinson’s
had higher levels of harm avoidance, took fewer risks in their 20s and 30s and remained that way across their lives,” said Sullivan. None of which is to say, however, that you can protect yourself from Parkinson’s by doing wild and crazy things. The study found an association; it didn’t explain how it happens. But here’s the theory: People with Parkinson’s have lower levels of a brain chemical called dopamine, which is associated with muscle movement. Lower dopamine levels also may affect personality. Dopamine gives us that rush of excitement, when driving at high speeds or riding a roller coaster. If you don’t get that rush of pleasure, you’re less likely to go in for risky activities. But it isn’t until dopamine gets very low, about 70 percent of normal or less, that the physical symptoms of Parkinson’s appear. By the time these hallmarks develop, scientists believe the progressive disease has been under way often for decades. So the USF research’s value could be in aiding earlier detection, and some day, better treatment. “Our findings suggest that early life personality characteristics might be useful in identifying people at higher risk for Parkinson’s,” said Sullivan. “This study gives us insight into the preclinical characteristics of the disease.”
social cues. “If I tease you and you cry, most kids will realize they crossed a line and will apologize, but if I’m a bully, I want more power, more status, and I see there’s an opportunity to go after you,” said Haber. “If you see your child bullying a child, the child not only has to apologize but do something nice, practice atonement. Being a bully is less exciting when you have other skills.” And beware the example you set when you treat a waitress or clerk rudely. “If you’re the kind of person who is constantly criticizing, you’re unconsciously role-modeling behaviors that kids will test out,” Haber said. PROSPECTS FOR SUCCESS Given what Smith calls “a history of failure” in reducing bullying, it’s easy to be cynical about whether bullyproofing can work. At one time, bullies were seen as having low self-esteem; now they’re seen as narcissists who think they’re superior. Conflict resolution was big in the ’90s, but that didn’t work because bullies don’t want to give up the power they have over their victims — even when they pretend to be conciliatory. “They say what we want to hear. But they’ll go back and do it again when nobody’s watching,” said Bisenius. But experts are hopeful about this new generation of bullyproofing programs, which teach social and emotional skills while promoting a caring school culture. Susan Swearer Napolitano, a Nebraska-based psychologist and co-director of the Bullying Research Network, who recommends a halfdozen bullyproofing programs on her website TargetBully.com, says “if these programs are implemented with fidelity and the messages are consistently communicated across a school community, then bullying prevention and intervention programs can help change the culture of bullying behaviors. However, ultimately it’s about people treating each other with kindness and respect that will stop bullying.”

language of fear. It’s a physical reaction — how the victim responds, how they hold their head and shoulders, the tone of voice,” said Jim Bisenius, a therapist who has taught his “BullyProofing Youth” program in more than 400 schools in Ohio and elsewhere. Teaching a kid to appear confident physically can sometimes be easier to teach than verbal skills, Bisenius said. “If a kid who’s never been mean in his life tries to fake it, or tries to outdo a bully with a verbal comeback, the bully sees right through that.” Lisa Suhay, a mom in Norfolk, Va., said her 8year-old son Quin was helped by Gracie Bullyproof, a martial arts program taught in 55 locations that combines verbal strategies with defensive jujitsu moves. Quin had been bullied so much on the playground that Suhay stopped taking him there. But she decided to give the park one last try after he completed the Gracie training. No sooner did Quin begin playing on a pirate ship than a bigger boy
knocked him down and ordered him to leave. But this time, as his mom watched in amazement, Quin grabbed the other kid around the waist “and landed on him like a big mattress, all while saying, ‘That was an incredibly bad idea you just had. But I’m not afraid of you.’” The other boy swung again, and Quin took him down again, then asked, “Now do you want to play nice?” They played pirates for the rest of the afternoon. “It’s about respect and self-confidence,” said Suhay. “You’re not teaching them to beat up the bully. But they’re not cowering. They make eye contact. They talk to the bully. So much of the time they avert the situation because the bully doesn’t expect them to say, ‘I’m not scared of you.’” HOW NOT TO RAISE A BULLY The classic bully profile is a child who was neglected, abused, or raised in an authoritarian home where punishment was the norm. But lack of discipline is just as bad: Children who have no boundaries, who feel entitled to whatever they want, can also become bullies. Smith worries that misguided efforts to boost kids’ self-esteem have produced a “sense of entitlement that we’ve never seen before.” He worries that we’re raising “the meanest generation” and says schools and parents must create a culture where meanness is not tolerated. “Kindness, empathy, caring and giving — you can teach those things.” Haber says parents and schools can start in preschool years by discouraging hitting, pushing and teasing: “Ask, how would you feel if someone did that to you?” Children can even be taught that being kind is fun. “Addict your child to kindness,” said Smith. “There are releases in the brain that feed endorphins that are very positive when you act with kindness. Encourage your kids to go over to a kid who’s alone and bring them in.” Some kids who bully need help learning to read

Alaska’s Denali Hiking in national park is fun, challenging DENALI NATIONAL PARK AND PRESERVE, Alaska (AP) — This is an enchanting but unforgiving landscape, where adventurers far more experienced than I have gotten lost or hurt. The dangers — weather and bears among them — can even be deadly. So it’s not surprising that my plans to hike solo here last summer were met with raised eyebrows and admonitions to please be careful. While I’m no novice, having taken backcountry trips on my own for most of my adult life in the Lower 48, Denali is different from other places I’ve been, namely in that there are virtually no marked trails here. One of the biggest challenges I faced was actually choosing where to start. I had no interest in doing anything dangerous; I just wanted to go on some challenging hikes and enjoy my surroundings. I planned to stick to day hikes, as my camping skills aren’t great, and I had come up with a list of places that looked or sounded fun to explore from two prior though brief trips here, conversations with park workers and bus drivers and a study of maps: Thorofare Pass, Polychrome Mountain, Stony Dome, Cathedral Mountain and Mount Healy. I generally went with places that had trails, and wandered on my own after they left off. Throughout the summer tourist season, shuttle buses provide the primary means of access to the park, with the 92-mile road closed to most personal vehicles past mile 15. (Some vehicles are allowed as far as mile 29, where the Teklanika campground is located, with reservations. You can also walk or bike in.) One of the most popular ways to see the park beyond mile 15 is on a bus, where you can view wildlife through the windows, sometimes at close range, with stops to experience the park through short walks, but you can also hop on and off the green buses and go off on your own to explore. To get to another destination or back to the park entrance, you can flag a later bus down provided you have a pass and there’s room on board. Reservations are advised, as buses can fill up fast. I carried a bus schedule with me so I knew when the last buses of the day would run and when I’d have to be on the road to catch one back. In my backpack, I also had rain pants, water and energy bars, a map, compass, camera and a whistle, in case I needed to make any noise to announce my presence to any wildlife in low-visibility areas. For my first day I planned to go to Thorofare Pass, which meant a four-hour bus ride into Denali. The weather started out gloomy with drizzling rain, but thankfully cleared up as the bus moved deeper into the park. We saw five bears including three right beside the dirt road, as opposed to farther off in the distance, and a fantastic view of Mount McKinley, North America’s tallest peak. Thorofare Pass isn’t a technically challenging hike; none of those that I did were. But it was a fun hike up and a welcome workout for my antsy legs after the ride in. The best part was running the ridge line and drinking in views of the mountain before it was partially obscured by clouds. The worst was encounter-

ing a group of loud hikers on my way down. I like hiking for the solitude and fellowship with nature. This was a buzzkill. I knew I didn’t want nearly as long a bus ride the next day; I was eager to run off on my own and spend as much time outside as possible. The bus trip started off agonizingly slow with people yelling “Stop!” to glimpse birds that seemed microscopic without high-powered binoculars, and me rolling my eyes in frustration. My attitude turned around fast, though, when the next “Stop!” was called out for a lynx, sauntering across a sandbar. I’d crossed off Stony Dome, given the time it would take to get there, and decided to bolt at Polychrome, a routine stop for the buses. It wasn’t long before the sound of traffic melted away, and I was all alone. It was incredible: vistas drenched in the colors of fall, yellow, orange, brown, rust (I was there in September, at the tail end of the season); and more ridge line to run. The wind in the area, though, was quite strong, literally clearing my nostrils. As the day wore on, I found walking the road to be a great pleasure, and had no problem catching a bus when I was finally ready to do so. I opted against the bus my third day and instead drove from the
motel I was staying at about a mile outside the park to Savage River, which is as far inside the park as most cars can go. There is a mountain and ridge line behind the rangers’ station that I was interested in trying, so I started up in sometimes spongy, uneven terrain. It looked pretty straightforward, but the higher I got, the higher the brambles and thicket got and soon I was among vegetation taller than I, branches clawing at my skin and clothes. Each time I expected to be at the top, I was greeted by more vegetation. I grew claustrophobic, and frustrated, and decided to cut my losses, descending to a social trail a path worn away by hikers along the river. I’d been that way before with my boyfriend and felt comfortable pressing on, even as the trail grew faint. It was beautiful, and I hadn’t seen anyone since I set out. On the way back, I wound up on a trail that led to large boulders jutting out into the river. This wasn’t right; I’d apparently taken the wrong fork in the social trail as I picked it back up. I backtracked, moving higher in hopes of picking up the trail. No luck, just a ledge with a decent drop. Higher still, same result. My heart had started to beat fast as I scrambled higher still, wondering how I could have been so stupid.
BUSES: Shuttle buses begin running to the Eielson Visitor Center on June 1. The entire park road will be open to buses, conditions permitting, starting June 8. Shuttle buses are scheduled to run through Sept. 13. Ticket prices and terms vary; see details at http://www.reservedenali.com. FOOD: There is only one restaurant within the park, the Morino Grill, which is near the entrance. The National Park Service says Riley Creek Mercantile sells sandwiches and pre-packaged food and the Wilderness Access Center, where bus tickets are purchased, sells snacks and coffee and other drinks. Both of those places, too, are near the entrance. There are restaurants, convenience stores, gear shops and other businesses along Highway 3, outside the park. SUPPLIES: For those going offtrail, the park recommends such things as you carry adequate food and water; bring a way to treat water, like purification tablets; wear appropriate clothing, choosing quick-drying synthetic materials or wool over cotton; plan for bad weather; avoid high ridges and exposed areas in a storm; be prepared for self-rescue and carry a first-aid kit; avoid hiking in wildlife closure areas.
When I picked the path back up, I was so relieved I practically skipped. I got up early my last day to get one last hike in before the four-hour drive to Anchorage to catch my flight. I decided on Mount Healy. The trail to get here is near the park entrance, so there is some traffic noise for a while. But I had the place virtually to myself, and after a bit of a scramble near the ridge line, was rewarded by the sight of a group of Dall sheep. I accomplished what I’d hoped to accomplish leaving tired and smiling and couldn’t help but think about all the things I wanted to do on my next trip here.

This film image released by Universal Pictures shows Charlize Theron in a scene from “Snow White and the Huntsman.” ensemble fit for a queen by dressing up chain mail with rolled leather and horsehair trim and topping it off with a particularly pointy metal crown. “We wanted to have a formidable silhouette,” Atwood said, “and from a distance
it’s spooky with the crown and her height and everything.” (Theron stands nearly six feet tall, the designer added.) In Sanders’ version of the Snow White story, Kristen Stewart portrays the only woman in the land fairer

Tim Burton’s “Dark Shadows,” starring Johnny Depp. Atwood and Burton are frequent and successful collaborators: Her most recent Oscar was for his 2010 film “Alice in Wonderland,” and she earned nominations for her costumes in Burton’s “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street” and “Sleepy Hollow.” Atwood’s “Snow White” costumes are miles and eras away from “Dark Shadows.” “They don’t resemble each other in any way,” she said, “so it was fun to shift from one to the other and have a whole different world to think about.” And slide right into. “Snow White” director Sanders said Atwood’s wardrobes “blend seamlessly into this world, and they speak volumes about the world and its characters.” Theron agreed. From the wedding dress, with its architectural shoulders that appear to be made from bones, to the twice-embroi-
‘Casablanca’ at 70: Time to renew vows
FILM REVIEW
BY MICK LASALLE San Francisco Chronicle
“Snow White & the Huntsman,” a Universal Pictures release, is rated PG-13 for intense sequences of violence and action, and brief sensuality. Running time: 125 minutes. Three stars out of four.
“Casablanca” is not my favorite movie, but along with “The Godfather,” it’s the one I can most easily be talked into watching again — and again. The latest welcome excuse is the 70thanniversary rerelease of the film in a deluxe three-disc set, consisting of a Blu-ray copy, a DVD copy and a disc of special features. It also comes with a poster and a hardcover booklet filled with stills and memos made during the production. But, really, this set is all about the packaging, about providing an opportunity for “Casablanca” lovers to express their love through buying the picture all over again. It’s like renewing vows. If you know you’re going to keep on doing something — in this case, watching “Casablanca” — any ritual that makes it feel more new and less familiar can’t be all bad. So I watched it again. And you know how it is: The movies don’t change, but we do, so if you wait a few years between screenings, you notice different things, or at least your perspective shifts. Here are some of the things I noticed on my most recent viewing of “Casablanca,” things you might want to look for the next time you watch it: • Rick’s devastation: His emotions are not really like those of a man in his 40s, which is what Humphrey Bogart was, or like that of a 37-year-old man, which is what Rick is supposed to be. Rather, he is as ruined as a teenager after his first breakup — and he’s that way a year and a half later. This might explain this movie’s rediscovery by college students in the ’60s and ’70s. Rick acts like one of them. • Renault would have sex with anybody: Renault (Claude Rains) takes advantage of every woman who needs an exit visa. Yet when he playfully says, at one point, that Ilsa’s questions about Rick have made him jealous, it doesn’t sound as if he’s jealous because he is attracted to Ilsa but, rather, because he is attracted to Rick. With the possible exception of Carl (S.K. Sakall), I don’t think there is anyone in this film Renault would not have sex with. • Look at Ingrid Bergman in the last Paris

Thrilling and frightening ‘Snow White’ a gorgeous take on fairy tale BY CHRISTY LEMIRE AP Film Reviewer Astonishingly beautiful and breathtaking in its brutal imagery, “Snow White & the Huntsman” is thrilling and frightening in equal measure, yet as bereft of satisfying substance as a poisoned apple. Rupert Sanders’ revisionist take on the classic Brothers Grimm fable, the first feature from the respected British commercial director, upends expectations of traditional gender roles while simultaneously embracing what a fairy tale should be. It’s dark and dangerous, vicious and violent. Yes, there are dwarves and adorable, furry woodland creatures but more often, death is a constant threat. And yet the performances notably from Kristen Stewart as the iconic title character don’t always live up to the film’s visionary promise. First, there’s the problem of casting anyone who’s supposed to be fairer than Charlize Theron as the evil queen. But beyond Stewart’s distractingly inconsistent British accent, she simply lacks the presence to serve as a convincing warrior princess. She’s too slight, her Snow White seems too reticent and insecure as she leads her minions into battle, and she still relies on all those Bella Swan tics that define her
dered gown that eventually resembles an old, peeling skin, Atwood’s costumes reflect the evil queen’s obsession with appearances. “Every costume had a feeling of not quite what it seems,” Theron said. “In a way, these dresses were like torture devices for Ravenna. I love that because I feel like Ravenna was, in a way, more torturous toward herself than to the people she was killing.” To minimize the actual on-set torture, Atwood employed a team of about 50 people to help the actors in and out of the elaborate costumes. But the beetle wings remain dangerous. Thousands of the hard, brittle wings decorate the evil queen’s regal dress of silk and metal mesh. “They’re incredibly sharp, so I had to be careful about how I used them. If you hit them, you can hurt yourself,” the designer said. “They’re quite treacherous, which really suited the character.”
performances in the “Twilight” movies: the sulking and sighing, the skittish side glances. Theron, at the opposite end of the spectrum, tends to get too screechy; with her imposing height, deep voice and mesmerizing beauty, she’s far more powerful when she dials it down. She’s long been willing to play deeply flawed and even cruel characters, but here she gets downright campy at times. Still, she is always a startling vision to behold in Oscar-winning costume designer Colleen Atwood’s dramatic, intricate dresses and crowns. The look and the energy of “Snow White & the Huntsman” are what keep it engaging, if a bit overlong. Theron, as the magical and manipulative Ravenna, has married (and quickly killed) the widower king, locked his daughter Snow White in a tower and plunged a once-peaceful realm into a wasteland of misery and strife. Once Snow comes of age and earns her fairest-of-them-all status, Ravenna’s power is threatened, and nothing short of eating the princess’ heart will sustain her. This sets the film’s chase in motion: Snow White escapes, and Ravenna hires a veteran huntsman (Chris Hemsworth) to track her down in a treacherous place known as the Dark Forest.
But instead, this tormented soul ends up becoming her reluctant protector, which means Ravenna must send yet another team of bad guys to find them both. Hemsworth, the hunky “Thor” star, continues to solidify his intriguing screen presence; he’s got the looks and swagger of a bigger, bulkier Brad Pitt but also gets to show off his vulnerability and even some comic timing, too. And laughs are hard to find around here, which is why it’s so surprising to see our old friends the dwarves show up; given that everything else about this telling of the familiar fairy tale is so different, you don’t really expect them. There are eight of them, not seven, and they certainly don’t whistle while they work; similar to the dwarves in the other Snow White movie this year, the jokey, ornate “Mirror Mirror,” they’re scoundrels and thieves making mischief in the forest. But it’s the way they’re presented once they meet Snow and the huntsman that’s the real surprise, and it may cause you to do a double take. Sanders has rounded up a veritable who’s-who of esteemed British character actors including Ian McShane, Toby Jones, Bob Hoskins, Ray Winstone, Nick Frost and Eddie Marsan and, through some digital trick-
ery, seamlessly depicted them as little people. It’s just one of many examples of meticulous detail in the film, from the menacing trees that come alive in the Dark Forest to the hauntingly enchanted animals and fairies that greet Snow White and her new posse of pals as they continue along their arduous trek toward safety and, eventually, back to the kingdom to reclaim her rightful throne. There are no Rodents of Unusual Size, to borrow from “The Princess Bride,” but every other fantastical creature is here so they’d be right at home. And if there were, Snow would be the one to slay them. It’s certainly admirable to see this character depicted as a strong, capable woman rather than a damsel in distress, and it’s a great role model for girls in the audience. But it does make you wonder how Snow White, who’s been trapped in a tower for the entirety of her adolescence, knows how to ride a horse and wield a sword like some bad-ass in “Braveheart.”
scene: As a young fellow, I so identified with Bogart’s emotional through line that I didn’t pay proper attention to Bergman in the last Paris sequence — the scene in which Ilsa knows she is going to leave Rick, but he doesn’t know it. As always when Bogart has to play happiness, he smiles so much that he looks almost crazy, but Bergman is wonderful. She looks as if she is in absolute torment. Watch her. • A great small role: Most tiny roles don’t amount to a hill of beans, but the character of Yvonne, played by Madeleine LeBeau (the only surviving cast member), is an exception. She has a real journey and is one of the important emotional focuses of the “Marseillaise” sequence. • The “Marseillaise” sequence: Good writing and direction. The great Germans sing “Deutschland uber alles” and are drowned out when Victor Laszlo (Paul Henreid) instructs the band to play “The Marseillaise,” Rick nods his approval and everyone in the place sings along. It’s a great idea for a scene (it was in the original play), but what makes it so effective is Michael Curtiz’s care in making sure every actor knows what he or she is playing. Rick looks at these Nazis singing as though thinking, “I’ve been dealing with clowns like this all my life.” Ilsa looks miserable with dread that the Germans will exact revenge on Victor for this public act of defiance — and yet at the same time she’s proud of him. And Yvonne remembers that she’s French, and that these Nazis are bums. It’s a dynamic scene because so much is going on both externally and internally — and all of it is conveyed with utter clarity. • Rick’s resume: Curiously, the screenplay sees fit to recite Rick’s resume — that he ran guns to Ethiopia and fought with the Spanish loyalists — not once or twice but three times. But still, he’s no Victor Laszlo. He’s also a drunk, and quite an unattractive one in the famous “gin joints” scene.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Charlize Theron’s evil queen costumes for “Snow White and the Huntsman” called for hundreds of handcut rooster feathers, thousands of iridescent beetle wings from Thailand and one particularly imposing crown. The outfits, some of which are on view at an LA pop-up gallery ahead of the film’s June 1 opening, represented a host of firsts for Academy Award-winning costume designer Colleen Atwood. From the leather piping on the pleats of the queen’s wedding gown to the gauzy green metal trim on the beetle-wing dress, the ninetime Oscar nominee and three-time winner experimented with materials for director Rupert Sanders’ dark take on the classic fairy tale. “The idea of the fairy tale sets you free in a way because you can make it up,” Atwood said. “And I love to make up stuff.” She created an armored

Feast for film junkies Q-and-A with moviemakers a real treat BY DOUGLASS K. DANIEL AP Book Reviewer “Conversations at the American Film Institute With The Great Moviemakers: The Next Generation, From the 1950s to Hollywood Today” (Knopf), by George Stevens Jr.: For serious film junkies, those who want to take a movie apart to see what makes it tick, this collection of Q-and-A sessions with film students and filmmakers is like a textbook made of cotton candy, an intellectual treat. The American Film Institute’s founding director, George Stevens Jr., follows up a previous volume of such conversations by focusing on actors, directors and others active from the 1950s and beyond. Presented alphabetically from Robert Altman and Darren Aronofsky to Robert Towne and Francois Truffaut, the 32 people in “Conversations at the American Film Institute With The Great Moviemakers: The Next Generation, From the 1950s to Hollywood Today” are an eclectic bunch —there’s even a critic — who share a devotion to film. Such dialogues are only as revealing as the guests, of course, and they stand or fall according to how deeply they are willing to go in discussing their work. Some guests are better at that than others —there is very little gossip but all offer a sense of how they see themselves as artists in action. For example: Gregory Peck on giving up on acting as a young man: “I thought about it all the time. When it wasn’t on my mind, my father was writing to me reminding me that I was off on a fool’s errand and that I should go to medical school or law school. … But to me it was an exciting adventure.” “Bonnie and Clyde” director Arthur Penn on resisting the norm: “Trying to break the rules in Hollywood is an important goal. Your mission should be to put your personal stamp on the film.” Many of these sessions are two or more decades in the past, refreshed with more recent interactions at the AFI. Matters of technology and business can seem as removed from today as the silent era. Yet issues of creativity remain relevant in spite of the years that have passed.

BOOK REVIEW
Scholar argues U.S. influence is waning There are weaknesses in his arguments BY NAHAL TOOSI AP Book Reviewer “Obama and the Middle East: The End of America’s Moment?” (Palgrave Macmillan), by Fawaz A. Gerges: In his new book, Middle East expert Fawaz A. Gerges argues that the United States is losing influence in the Middle East, and that President Barack Obama has failed to live up to the expectations of many in the Arab and Muslim worlds to improve relations. Gerges, a professor at the London School of Economics and Political Science, is clearly a wellread academic with a solid ability to gather the information he needs to back up an argument. But much of what he writes is fairly obvious to anybody who closely follows news of the Middle East, and even then his analysis is not without flaws. In “Obama and the Middle East: The End of America’s Moment?” Gerges says U.S. influence is waning in the Middle East due to a host of reasons, from the invasion of Iraq, to ongoing alliances with autocrats, to the Arab Spring uprisings that Washington failed to foresee and properly capitalize upon. Obama’s policies have in many cases exacerbated tensions instead of eased them, Gerges posits. It’s hard to argue with many of his points. The Arab Spring uprisings that began in Tunisia

Gerges. and spread to Egypt, Libya and other nations do seem to have undermined America’s strength. Once-reliable allies are no longer predictable American toadies, and only time, an election or two and an injection of Islamist political power will show if they will become outright enemies. And Obama has been, if anything, a pragmatist who hasn’t applied a broad-brush ideological approach to his foreign policy but instead approached each situation case by case. Sometimes, reality has vastly undercut the president’s seemingly genuine aspirations. For instance, Gerges notes that Obama’s approach to the Israeli-Palestinian crisis has effectively been neutered, not least because of resistance among members of Congress loath to anger Israeli supporters. But there are some major
weaknesses in Gerges’ analysis. On the Israeli-Palestinian feud, his bias in favor of the Palestinians is so obvious that it undercuts some very valid points he is trying to make. Gerges brushes aside or seems to simply ignore legitimate Israeli security concerns. There was no need to strive for false balance he has a right to his opinion but devoting a bit more space to explaining the Israeli psyche would have added much-needed nuance. On the question of the alQaida terrorist network, Gerges seems utterly oblivious to some key aspects, to the point where it seems he’s downplaying a still real and present danger. For instance, he argues that the U.S. is too obsessed with alQaida, despite the fact that the terrorist group has largely been debilitated and is down to a few hundred surviving members. A strange argument, considering a major reason that al-Qaida is weakened is because the U.S. has been obsessed with it and acted on that obsession. Gerges, understandably, questions the wisdom of the drone strike program, which has been ramped up under Obama and which many say is contributing to the radicalization of young Muslim men. But he doesn’t give enough weight to arguments in favor of such strikes that they are often accurate and have taken out some top militants without requiring U.S. boots on the ground. If you think drones will radicalize people, think what a U.S. invasion of Pakistan would do. And never mind that all it takes is a few terrorists to cause a lot of damage, Gerges even fails to pay enough attention to alQaida’s greater impact: the way it has become a brand and
inspired other movements, some of whom are even more vicious than the late Osama Bin Laden’s bunch. The Pakistani Taliban, Somalia’s al-Shabab movement, militants fighting in Yemen to some extent these are all part of al-Qaida’s sphere of influence and its legacy. And they are still out there. One could also quibble with Gerges’ seeming disapproval of how Obama has handled Iran. Gerges criticizes the president for not openly backing the 2009 protests in Iran known as the Green Movement, saying that it was because Obama was trying to engage the Iranian government. But he fails to point out that many Iranian reformers adamantly opposed any sort of public U.S. intervention even moral support because they insisted it would undermine their movement’s claim to being homegrown. The White House was well aware of that sentiment. Again, Gerges’ broader point may be true: America’s influence in the Middle East is eroding. Turkey, Iran and other nations are battling for regional supremacy, and their interests do not always align with those of the White House. But is this a good thing for the world? Is it a bad thing? Here, I find myself wishing Gerges had been more clear. It would have been nice OK, perhaps fanciful to see some predictions, even wild ones, about what the Middle East will look like 20 years from now. Of course, if the Arab Spring taught us anything, it is that even for the most learned of experts, decoding the past is much easier than guessing what’s next.

MORTGAGE WATCH
Mortgage rate falls to record 3.75 percent WASHINGTON (AP) — Average U.S. rates on 30-year and 15-year fixed mortgages dropped to record lows again this week, with the 15-year loan dipping below 3 percent for the first time ever. Low rates have helped brighten the outlook for home sales this year. They have made home-buying and refinancing more attractive to those who can qualify. Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said Thursday that the average rate on the 30-year loan fell to 3.75 percent. That’s down from 3.78 percent last week and the lowest since long-term mortgages began in the 1950s. The 15-year mortgage, a popular refinancing option, slipped to 2.97 percent. That’s down from 3.04 percent last week. Rates on the 30-year loan have been below 4 percent since early December. The low rates are a key reason the housing industry is showing modest signs of a recovery this year. A drop in rates could also provide some help to the economy if more people refinance. When people refinance at lower rates, they pay less interest on their loans and have more money to spend. In April, sales of both previously occupied homes and new homes rose near two-year highs. Builders are gaining more confidence in the market, breaking ground on more homes and requesting more permits to build single-family homes later this year. A better job market also has made more people open to buying a home. Employers have added 1 million jobs in the past five months. The unemployment has dropped a full percentage point since August, from 9.1 percent to 8.1 percent in April. Still, the pace of home sales remains well below healthy levels. Economists say it could be years before the market is fully healed. Many people are having difficulty qualifying for home loans or can’t afford larger down payments required by banks. Some would-be home buyers are holding off because they fear that home prices could keep falling. Mortgage rates have been dropping because they tend to track the yield on the 10-year Treasury note, which has fallen this week to a 66year low. Uncertainty about how Europe will resolve its debt crisis has led investors to buy more Treasury securities, which are considered safe investments. As demand for Treasurys increase, the yield falls.
Whether entertaining friends for a summer party or just planning dinner for the family, set up a lovely food service to make the meal extra-special. It’s remarkably easy to pull together a beautiful service display in minutes. One of the best spots to create a dynamite food-service display in seconds is on your dining-room buffet. Begin by scrutinizing the wall behind the buffet. Can it use some great artwork? I have a sensational painting hanging behind my buffet that is so big it almost spans the buffet’s width. Its presence alone ramps up the look of the whole presentation. Try flanking either side of the buffet with matching lamps. Forget those wimpy buffet lamps of old and go for larger, taller ones that make a statement. If your room has tall ceilings, like mine does, don’t be afraid to pick lamps that stretch toward the ceiling. Once these design cornerstones are in place, add a few accents you can leave on your buffet year-round, then spice up with seasonal decor. For instance, include a gorgeous English footbath or hurricane or serving bowl in the foreground of your buffet display, then use this fetching container to hold seasonal treasures, like seashells in the summer and gourds in the fall. Could it get any simpler? Or set the buffet as if you’re going to have a party that day. Use intriguing serving pieces to create an attractive display you can leave in place. Then, when you want to entertain, you just need to wash up the dishes and you’re ready to go. How easy is that? I really enjoy coming up with unconventional spots to serve food and drinks when entertaining. It’s fun to see guests’ faces light up when treated to an unexpected sur-

Think about how you can do something special in your home — like putting appetizers or drinks in a spot no one would suspect, turning it into a visually arresting display in the process. prise. June is my absolute favorite month for entertaining outdoors, and through the years I’ve done a lot of experimenting with ways to display appetizers, drinks and dinner on my screened porch and courtyard. This year I put an all-purpose black iron urn at the
foot of the steps that lead from my porch to my courtyard, then topped it with a silver three-tiered server. The coffee service, displayed on different levels of the server, suddenly went from looking like a functional necessity to artwork that brightened up the corner. Think about
how you can do something similar in your home — put appetizers or drinks in a spot no one would suspect, turning it into a visually arresting display in the process. When I entertain inside,

HOUSE HUNTING
Do pre-emptive offers work? The home-sale market has come to life this spring for the first time in years. Inventories of homes have dropped, interest rates are near all-time lows, and buyers feel the market has hit bottom and they’d be wise to buy now before prices rise. It’s impossible to call the peak or valley of a market cycle until after the event has occurred. In some hot micromarkets, like the housing markets around Northern California’s Silicon Valley, the market may have bottomed a while ago. In Silicon Valley, the inventory of homes for sale is too low to satisfy the demand of eager, newly made millionaires. The result is multiple bidding contests and sale prices over the list price, sometimes hundreds of thousands of

Silicon Valley is an extreme example, but there are low-inventory niche housing markets around the country, which is good for sellers and tough on buyers. Reminiscent of the bubble of 2005 and 2006, buyers often have to make offers on more than one listing before they have an offer accepted. Sellers in a low-inventory mar-

Food • Continued from C1 especially if I’m having a big group that won’t fit at my dining-room table, I like to create stations around my home where I can place drinks and appetizers, leaving my buffet open to serve the main course. One fun and unexpected spot for a beverage service is on a small table placed in front of the hearth. I think there are two keys to stress-free entertaining. One is to practice. The more you entertain, the easier it becomes because you find your own style and rhythm. The other key is to have the right serving tools at your
fingertips. Through the years, I’ve collected the serving pieces I need to pull together a party in a snap. If you don’t already have a good set of versatile serving pieces, start collecting them right away. Let friends and family know what kinds of pieces you’re looking for — chances are, they will be happy to have some ideas for birthday or holiday gifts. Here is my list of musthave serving pieces for when I entertain: • Multitiered servers. Whether they are epergnes, tiered servers or multileveled plate stands, serving pieces that allow
you to elevate food selections are the key to creating a great display. • Cake plates. If you want to make anything look special, serve it on a cake plate. For an even sweeter presentation, stack two or three cake plates on top of each other. • Platters. Whether filled with savory food or holding silverware bundles, beautiful platters add to the elegance of a presentation. • Silver trays. They make everything look elegant. Use them to serve food, hold plates or corral glasses on the bar. They serve a million and one purposes, and you’ll wonder how you ever got along
without them. • Apothecary jars and hurricanes. These essential decorating tools are not only great accents for displays, they can be used to help serve meals as well. • Beverage urns and pitchers. I keep a glass urn with a spigot on my dining-room buffet to serve water, punch or tea. When I’m not entertaining, I fill it with treasures, like gourds. • Serving bowls. For added punch, put a serving bowl or two atop a cake plate or another riser. Take advantage of vertical space. In my courtyard, for a recent function, I created a drink-service
display using a metal planter fitted with several leaf-shaped tiers. I rested wine glasses and an ice bucket on the leaves. I used a silver gallery tray to hold the wine. The live topiary next to the tray and the maidenhair fern in the tiered planter added to the garden ambiance of this outdoor bar. When selecting serving pieces and accents for a display, pull together a mix of heights, styles and mediums. I love to pair elegant pieces with the more rustic. The column has been adapted from Mary Carol Garrity’s blog at www. nellhills.com.
Summer is right around the corner. That means it’s time for the slew of warmweather toys, tools and sundries that have been stashed away for winter to come out of hiding and reenter the regular rotation of “stuff ” in your home. Before the season is in full swing, try setting up a few organizational stations to keep these items in check. Here are some easy ideas for keeping everything at the ready. • Flip-flops are the designated shoes of summer in our households. The only problem is, they end up in big piles by the front door, the back door or in the kitchen. Find a large bin or tin bucket, label it with the words “Flip-Flops” with paint or a sticker and place it by the door. • In our homes the center of the kitchen shifts outside, to the grill, during the summer. If you’re not careful, scrub brushes, grill baskets and grill spatulas linger around outside in a jumble and other items get shoved in kitchen drawers that are often too small to properly contain them. Set up a tall tin bucket to hold grill tools or hang hooks that you can use to keep grill tools organized. • There’s nothing like a big canvas bag when it comes to swimsuits and pool gear. Keep a large one in your coat closet. Put all dry bathing suits in the bag so you don’t have to go searching for them when you need them. In addition, keep two or three towels in there so you can just grab it and go when you’re ready for a dip. • Set up your car in advance to maximize the fun you have outdoors. Keep one or two folding chairs along with a canvas bin in the back. Inside the canvas bin keep a bottle of sunscreen and bug spray, a mesh bag with small sand toys, and a towel. • Set up an outside-toy station in your garage or on your porch and encourage your children to put their toys away in that each evening when they are done playing with them. • Help children make healthier choices by having a snack box organized on a shelf that’s at eye-level for them. Keep cut fruits and veggies, cheese sticks, yogurt and maybe a small sandwich or two. Then let them know that whenever they are hungry, they can always grab something from the snack bin in the fridge. • Before the hot weather really hits, invest in hanging candleholders designed for outdoor use, along with citronella tealight candles.

Riding the wave of shipshape decor HIGH POINT, N.C. — Get ready to be shellshocked. The International Home Furnishings Market was awash in all manner of sea life as manufacturers dove into an ocean of design ideas. Oyster-shell mirrors and chandeliers, seashell consoles, votives and lamps combined with coral, fish and watery hues had the spring market swimming in coastal style. “One of the first things we noticed after seeing several showrooms was this very strong nautical theme,” observed Stacy Weiss, owner of Weisshouse furniture in Pittsburgh. The store ended up taking home a massive iron anchor that stands upright like an instant sculpture. More than 100 years old and 200 pounds, it’s the ultimate way to anchor a room. You can have it for $2,250. Neptune has surely risen and his trident is aimed directly at the world of interior design. For Currey & Co. this is not so much a trend as a tradition. “The shells are part of our DNA,” said design director Cecil Adams. The company is known for its shell designs on lamps, consoles, tables and mirrors. Its round coffee table, The Montauk, features a driftwood base. “What we did for this market was take the very popular Moroccan look and include shells. I like to say it’s Montauk meets Morocco,” says Adams. The Aladdin occasional table is just that, while the Silvio chandelier by Marjorie Skouras is a wonder of shells and sea life. Another company keen on shells, marsh reeds and driftwood is Low Country, which was showing new oyster-shell votive candleholders, plant urns and hanging lanterns. Made Goods showed several versions of mirrors framed with coral or shells such as the Ava, a reproduction clamshell, and the Katherine, an octagonal mirror covered in hand-placed cut shells. It wasn’t just mollusks making the move to interiors. Vintage boat pillows, oars, anchors, water skis and life preservers all got the call. Genesee River Trading Co. specializes in vintage accessories, including old water skis and fishing poles. If you aren’t quite sure you have your sea legs, Blue Ocean Traders had a boatload of old life preservers. . The company specializes in unusual pieces, antiques and welldone reproductions. Some of the life preservers were turned into mirrors, just as old ship wheels once were. Blue Ocean also had reproduction figureheads, the figures at the bow of a ship. Some are mermaids, but they can be almost anything. Theodore Alexander introduced the Yacht cocktail table with a curved bow and stern in white lacquer. The top is fitted with stainless-steel cleats and line-strung decking details. Bassett created several collections for the new HGTV line. Water’s Edge, with watery hues and compass-inspired hardware, is all about evoking a coastal life style. Of course, Coastal Living magazine has its own line of sand- and sea-inspired furnishings. Jamie Young was inspired by ships’ rigging in wrapping the Nautique chandelier in rope. Dransfield & Ross for Tozai Home navigated into nautical decor with the working-compass side table with rope-covered base. OOMPH, which showed off
wonderfully rich lacquer pieces, introduced the chart coffee table. The nautical chart covered in glass and framed by lacquer is available in navy, cream, sky blue and other colors. The customer can also choose the map or chart to be used. Other companies riding the wave were Global Views, with turquoise accessories, ceramic mermaids, bubbles and fish wall decorations, and Palecek’s glass fish and large clamshell display stand, which is perfect for serving shrimp cocktail. Lilly Pulitzer showed its Whitney club chair in a Splendor Pacific fabric with a coral pattern. Not everything was so literal. Lexington Home Brands introduced its Aquarius collection, which featured several high-gloss lacquer pieces. The aqua Neptune chest, with wavelike front, suggests the cool calm of a pool. C.R. Laine’s Clayborn sofa in Cove Ocean fabric and Jack sofa in Hartford Navy with nail trim around the arms and paneled back is reminiscent of a naval officer’s uniform with shiny buttons. So what caused this maritime madness? Perhaps it’s an unconscious reaction to global warming; with oceans rising, we could all be living near a large body of water soon. Ann Maine, editor in chief of Traditional Home magazine, thinks there may be several reasons for the sudden tsunami of seaside style. “It’s likely some designers took their cues from fashion. Stripes are everywhere. On the runway, Michael Kors showed a nautical striped top paired with pants and SHNS PHOTOS BY PITTSBURGH POST-GAZETTE/PATRICIA SHERIDAN gold chains,” she says. Blue Ocean Traders has vintage life preservers from old Eastern European vessels as well as repro“I sensed an optimism this duction mermaid figureheads. market,” she continues. “Perhaps people are simply ready to relax and not worry. You have to admit that crisp blue and white, vintage accessories and whitewashed woods say beach, weekends away and good times.” The original beach boy of design, Barclay Butera, seems to agree. “The fresh air, life-affirming sunshine, ocean breezes — these are a designer’s quintessential inspirations. One of my favorite go-to palettes for design has always been soothing coastal colors — washy blues, fresh, crisp whites, rich, sandy shades. They are the perfect foundation for creating what I call casual coastal Theodore Alexander’s Yacht cocktail table — nautically inspired, complete with a curved bow and elegance. It’s a real lived-in but spectacularly beautiful environstern. ment.”

• TIP: Thread count is important when selecting linens. Generally, a higher thread count means lighter, suppler fabric. However, the higher the thread count, the more expensive the sheets will be. Consider thread count if you are looking for durability. We recommend a thread count of 200 or more. The higher the number, the tighter the weave and the stronger the sheet.

CAUTION Whether posting or responding to an advertisement, watch out for offers to pay more than the advertised price for the item. Scammers will send a check and ask the seller to wire the excess through Western Union (possibly for courier fees). The scammer's check is fake and eventually bounces and the seller loses the wired amount. While banks and Western branches are Union trained at spotting fake checks, these types of scams are growing increasingly sophisticated and fake checks often aren't caught for weeks. Funds wired through Western Union or MoneyGram are irretrievable and virtually untraceable. If you have questions regarding scams like these or others, please contact the Ohio Attorney General’s office at (800)282-0515.
