DELPHOS Unverferth
Manufacturing received an Economic
Development Rate Stabilization Plan
Grant totaling $100,000 on Wednesday
to assist in the relocation of power lines
on the Delphos property.
The power lines were moved for a
70,000-square-foot expansion, which is underway.
The facility was chosen for expan-
sion after an agreement was finalized
with AEP Ohio for relocation of a sec-
tion of subtransmission that crossed
the west side of the Unverferth prop-
erty, which is where the addition will be
located. New machinery and equipment
will be added in the expanded area.
Utility rate hikes
squeak through
city council
BY NANCY SPENCER
DHI Media Editor

DELPHOS Water and sewer rates passed by narrow
margins during Wednesdays special Delphos City Council
meeting.
A 5-percent water rate increase passed 5-2 with Councilmen
Mark Clement and Jim Fortener casting no votes; and a
10-percent sewer rate increase past 4-3 with Clement, Fortener
and Councilman Kevin Osting saying nay.
The water increase raises $90,000 in revenue and the sewer,
$210,000. The rate changes will be seen on the August billing.
Clement and Fortener both expressed concern about the
impact of the additional cost on residents and businesses.
Im afraid were going to chase people out of town if we
keep raising these rates, Fortener said.Some people may be
unaware these increases are coming and could be upset since
they just passed the income tax increase.
Auditor Tom Jettinghoff pointed out that the rate increases
have been talked about for months and most residents should
be aware of them. The utility bill for a family of four is expect-
ed to increase $10 per month or $30 per billing.
This was on paperwork council has had since the last year,
Jettinghoff said.Its been in the newspapers and on the news.
Councilman Del Kemper spoke during the water rate
increase discussion.
In the end, weve got to pay the bills, he said. I dont know
any other way. This is how we got into trouble the last time. These
issues were bantered about and bantered about without taking any
action. We can do a rate decrease later if the budget allows.
D.A.R.E. Camp 2014 promotes team creativity
D.A.R.E. Officer Mike White said that the 2014 Camp has been very successful with close to 130
students from Van Wert, Delphos, Spencerville, Bath and Elida schools participating in the program.
Throughout the three-day camp, eight teams earn points doing various activities from plane and
photo frame design to helping clean up after an activity. The team with the most points earns a gold
medal, second gets a silver medal and third gets a bronze medal. Above: Team members work on dec-
orating a photo frame keepsake with a picture of their team attached. (DHI MEDIA/Stephanie Groves)

Correction
In the Wednesday, June
18, 2014, edition of The
Delphos Herald, the story
headlined, Have we seen the
last of new Van Wert County

incorrect attribution to a pair
of quotes. Instead of a release
from Iberdrola Renewables,
the release should have been
attributed to the American

The only statements from
Iberdrola are the quotes
from Project Developer

DELPHOS Pam Wade considers herself
very fortunate. Both times she was diagnosed with
Lymphoma, she was being seen for other medical
procedures and had no symptoms relating to the
cancer.
I was cancer-free up until three years ago when
I went in for a tonsillectomy and they found a nod-
ule on my tonsil, Wade explained.
The doctor initially told Wade and her partner
Jane Irwin that the nodule was not cancer. After a
biopsy and testing, they were told it was cancer.
I had no control over the cancer and I turned
it over to a higher power, Wade said. I decided I
cant live my life afraid.
She went through six months of chemotherapy
and said she was lucky to have no real effects from
the treatment.
Irwin said each time Wade was diagnosed, there
was a huge range of emotions she experienced.
I was shocked and scared, she said.
The first time Wade was diagnosed in 1994, she
went through radiation treatments which fried her
salivary glands. Now, she has to drink a lot of water.
Its all worth it, Wade exclaimed.
She said with the radiation, she was really sick
and detailed the events of one day after receiving
treatment.
On a Monday, I remember wanting to die and
the next day, Tuesday, while sitting with our dog
Honey Bear, I felt good, she explained. I felt well
enough to wallpaper Janes bathroom.
Wade survives cancer twice

Todays Highlight in History:
On June 19, 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1964
was approved by the U.S. Senate, 73-27, after
surviving a lengthy filibuster. Hours later, a twin-
engine plane carrying Sens. Edward Kennedy,
D-Mass., and Birch Bayh, D-Ind., crashed near
Springfield, Massachusetts. Kennedy was seri-
ously injured, Bayh and his wife, Marvella, less
so, but two people, including the pilot, were killed.
On this date:
In 1764, Jose Gervasio Artigas, considered the
father of Uruguayan independence, was born in
Montevideo.
In 1864, during the Civil War, the
Confederate sloop-of-war CSS Alabama was
sunk by the USS Kearsarge (also a sloop-of-
war) off Cherbourg, France.
In 1865, Union troops commanded by Maj.
Gen. Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston,
Texas, with news that the Civil War was over,
and that all remaining slaves in Texas were free,
an event celebrated to this day as Juneteenth.
In 1910, the first-ever Fathers Day was cele-
brated in Spokane, Wash. (The idea for the obser-
vance is credited to Sonora Louise Smart Dodd.)
In 1934, the Federal Communications
Commission was created; it replaced the Federal
Radio Commission.
In 1938, four dozen people were killed when
a railroad bridge in Montana collapsed, sending a
train known as the Olympian hurtling into Custer
Creek.
In 1944, during World War II, the two-day
Battle of the Philippine Sea began, resulting in
a decisive victory for the Americans over the
Japanese.

In 1999, author Stephen King was seriously
injured when he was struck by a van driven by
Bryan Smith in North Lovell, Maine. Britains
Prince Edward married commoner Sophie Rhys-
Jones in Windsor, England.
Ten years ago: The U.S. military stepped up
its campaign against militant leader Abu Musab
al-Zarqawi, launching an airstrike that pulverized
a suspected hideout in Fallujah. President George
W. Bush told Americans in his weekly radio
address that the economy was growing stron-
ger and more jobs were being created despite
Democrats claim hed presided over a downturn
for the country.
Five years ago: New York Times reporter
David S. Rohde and Afghan reporter Tahir Ludin
escaped from militant captors after more than
seven months in captivity in Afghanistan and
Pakistan. Texas billionaire R. Allen Stanford was
indicted and jailed on charges his international
banking empire was really just a Ponzi scheme
built on lies, bluster and bribery. (Stanford was
sentenced to 110 years in prison after being
convicted of bilking investors in a $7.2 billion
scheme that involved the sale of fraudulent cer-
tificates of deposits.)
One year ago: Afghan President Hamid
Karzai suspended talks with the United States
on a new security deal to protest the way his
government was left out of initial peace negotia-
tions with the Taliban. President Barack Obama,
speaking in front of Berlins Brandenburg Gate,
pledged to cut deployed U.S. nuclear weap-
ons by one-third if Cold War foe Russia did
the same. Actor James Gandolfini, 51, died
while vacationing in Rome. Country singer Slim
Whitman, 90, died in Orange Park, Florida.
Asthma rates drop but
experts not breathing easier
NEW YORK (AP) A new survey suggests asthma in the
U.S. may finally be on the decline. But the results are so surpris-
ing that health officials are cautious about claiming a downturn.
I wouldnt say its good news yet, said the studys lead
author, Jeannine Schiller of the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention.
The findings come from a large national health survey con-
ducted last year. The drop could just be an unexplained statisti-
cal blip, and Schiller said shes waiting for data from this year
before proclaiming asthma is on the decline.
The CDC released the report today.
For the past few years, about 8.6 percent of Americans have
said they have asthma. But in last years survey, 7.4 percent said
they currently had it. That was the lowest mark in a decade, and
represents a decline of more than 3 million people.
The largest declines were seen in black children and women.
There was also a drop in those who said theyd had an asthma
attack or episode in the past year. The number fell from 4.4 per-
cent in 2012 to 3.8 percent last year the lowest mark in more
than 15 years.
The new survey involved in-person interviews of more than
47,000 Americans and covered both adults and children.
Asthma can cause bouts of coughing, wheezing, and chest
pain. Experts arent sure what causes it, but asthma attacks can
be triggered by things like tobacco smoke, air pollution, pollen,
and cockroaches. Studies have pointed at decrepit housing and
climate change as some of the possible reasons for the increase
in asthma seen in the past decade.
The disease can be controlled through medication. Some
studies have shown a gradual decline in the percentage of
asthma patients who said they suffered an attack in the previous
year.
Experts say theres been no recent major advance in asthma
treatment or improvement in the environment that would
account for the latest figures.
Nationally, Im not aware of anything that would explain
these statistics, said Dr. Karen Freedle, an Emory University
specialist in pediatric asthma.
Feds seek ways to expand use of addiction drug
WASHINGTON (AP) The gov-
ernments top drug abuse experts are
struggling to find ways to expand use
of a medicine that is considered the best
therapy for treating heroin and painkiller
addiction.
Sen. Carl Levin of Michigan on
Wednesday pressed officials from the
White House, the National Institute
of Drug Abuse and other agencies to
increase access to buprenorphine, a medi-
cation which helps control drug cravings
and withdrawal symptoms. It remains
underused a decade after its launch.
First approved in 2002 under a
law crafted by Levin, a Democrat, and
Utah Republican Sen. Orrin Hatch
buprenorphine was hailed as a major
advance over methadone, the decades-old
standard for addiction treatment. Among
other advantages, buprenorphine has a
lower risk of overdose and milder side
effects. It can be prescribed as a take-
home medication in the privacy of a
doctors office, helping patients avoid the
stigma of going to a methadone clinic.
But even amid a national epidemic
of drug abuse and addiction, access to
buprenorphine remains limited by fed-
eral restrictions, inconsistent insurance
coverage and a lack of acceptance by
physicians.
As long as we have too few doc-
tors certified to prescribe bupe, we will
be missing a major weapon in the fight
against the ravages of addiction, Levin
told the forum, which also included
patients and non-government medical
experts.
Only 4 percent of the 625,000 U.S
doctors who are eligible to prescribe
buprenorphine have received certification
to use the drug, which comes as a pill or
a film that dissolves under the tongue.
Certification requires an eight hour train-
ing course in addiction medicine.
Meanwhile an estimated 2.5 million
Americans are addicted to prescription
painkillers or heroin, known collectively
as opioids, and less than half are receiv-
ing medical treatment.
Its somewhat paradoxical that phy-
sicians will use opioids to create a
problem, but there seems to be reluc-
tance to help address the problem,
said Dr. Westley Clark of the Center for
Substance Abuse Treatment. Clark and
other experts noted that there is still a
stigma attached to treating opioid addic-
tion and many physicians are uninter-
ested in learning how to use drugs like
buprenorphine.
Government officials agreed that
more training is needed to familiarize
both medical students and experienced
physicians with science showing that
addiction can be successfully treated
with medication.
Even among doctors who are certified
to prescribe buprenorphine, federal law
caps the number of patients they can treat
at 100.
Dr. Corey Waller, an addiction spe-
cialist from Grand Rapids, Michigan,
said he has a constant waiting list of
patients trying to get a prescription.
Its the only medication that has a
limit of treatment capability out of all the
medicines in the U.S., said Waller, who
also spoke on behalf of the American
Society of Addiction Medicine. The
group has proposed raising the cap to as
high as 500 patients for physicians who
complete 40 hours of training.
But federal officials cautioned against
raising the number, noting that buprenor-
phine itself can be abused.
Dr. Nora Volkow, director of the
National Institute on Drug Abuse, noted
that buprenorphine overdoses are routine-
ly reported in Europe, where the drug is
less restricted. Other officials warned that
raising the prescribing limit might lead
to buprenorphine pill mills, where rogue
doctors prescribe drugs indiscriminately
in exchange for money from addicts.
Methadone and buprenorphine are
themselves opioids, part of that class of
highly addictive drugs that mimic the
effect of the opium poppy. When dosed
carefully though, both drugs can reduce
opioid withdrawal symptoms includ-
ing anxiety, sweating, nausea and vom-
iting without producing the euphoric
high seen with drugs like heroin.

American Pickers, a History Channel show currently searching for locations
to shoot in Van Wert County. (Submitted photo)
American Pickers
picks Van Wert
VAN WERT American Pickers will
make their way to western Ohio and Indiana
and are looking to spend some time picking
in Van Wert County. The History Channels
hit television series American Pickers will
be in the area July 14-27 and is now actively
seeking locations to feature in Van Wert
County.
The documentary-style show follows pro-
fessional pickers Mike Wolfe and Frank
Fritz on adventures that bring them to small
towns across the country in search of unique
Americana and fascinating people.
Were looking for people with barns, ware-
houses and out buildings full of odd, unique
and interesting collections, said Anthony
Rodriguez, Casting Associate Producer with
Cineflix USA. We also love to explore the
history of the locations tied to the items.
Mike and Frank are always looking for great
characters, too the kinds of people within
the nooks, crannies and back roads of this big
country. Our favorite picks feature multiple
buildings crammed with lots of cool stuff. We
love for our guys to really work for what they
find, digging through piles and coming up
with treasure.
Mike and Frank are longtime pickers or
as they call themselves modern archaeolo-
gists. They drive the back roads of America
knocking on doors, digging through barns and
basements, and sifting through junkyards and
warehouses. The dirty, rusty treasures and
antiques they pull out of these places are not
just given a new life; theyre saved for future
generations to appreciate. Along the way the
guys meet the amazing people and interesting
places that make America great.
How exciting for the Van Wert com-
munity! Many of our county residents have
treasure troves waiting to be discovered by
Mike and Frank, shared Van Wert Chamber
President/CEO Susan Munroe. The stories
and journeys attached to those treasures as
shared by their owners is often whats the best
part of the show.

Lima Memorial saves lives
with lung screening program
LIMA In November 2013, Lima Memorial
Health System conducted more than 40 free
low-dose lung screenings to those at high risk
for lung cancer. As a result of the free screening,
Beverly Nandi was able to tackle lung cancer
head on.
Nandi felt compelled to participate in the
screening after seeing an advertisement on tele-
vision.
I heard about it on television and felt com-
pelled to do it. I knew I fit all of the criteria,
said Nandi.
During her initial screening, Dr. Brooks
Brennan, medical director of Radiology, noticed
a small ground glass nodule and recommended
she return for a follow-up scan in three months.
The follow-up scan revealed that the nodule
had become larger and darker. She was admitted
for surgery in April to remove the lower lobe
of her left lung. Due to early detection, Nandi
was able to avoid chemotherapy and radiation.
Beverly was discharged less than a week after
surgery.
I would recommend this screening to any-
one who thinks they are a good candidate, she
said. It saved my life.
Dr. Brennan notes newer CT technology allows
for the detection of very small, low-grade cancers
at a fraction of the dose of a traditional CT.
While not much more radiation than a two-
view chest X-ray, there is a significant increase
in sensitivity in tumor detection, Brennan said.
Through Lima Memorials Lung Cancer
Screening Program, a reduced-cost ($149) low-
dose CT is available to those who meet the
criteria.

Rootless corn syndrome
affects plants around area
BY JAMES HOORMAN
Putnam County Extension
news@delphosherald.com
Dr. Peter Thomison, OSU Extension
Corn Specialist, reports that he has
received several reports of rootless
and floppy corn in northwest Ohio.
Rootless corn (or rootless corn syndrome)
occurs when there is limited or no nodal
root development. Plants exhibiting root-
less corn symptoms are often leaning or
lodged. Affected corn plants may only be
anchored in the soil by seminal roots or
by a single nodal root. This condition is
generally observed in plants from about
the three-leaf stage to the eight-leaf stage
of development.
The problem often becomes evi-
dent when corn is subjected to strong
winds, which result in plants falling over
because there is a limited number or no
nodal roots. Leaning and lodged plants
(sometimes referred to as floppy corn)
may also be wilted. When affected plants
are examined, the nodal roots appear
stubby, blunt, and unanchored to the
soil. Rootless corn problems are usu-
ally caused by several factors including
shallow plantings, hot, dry surface soils,
compacted soils and loose or cloddy soil
conditions. Excessive rainfall and shal-
low plantings may cause erosion and soil
removal around the crown region that can
result in rootless corn.
High crown syndrome has been
associated with rootless corn prob-
lems (bulletin.ipm.illinois.edu/article.
php?id=1650). One of the causes of high-
crown syndrome is subsidence of the soil
due to rainfall after planting, when plant-
ing occurs in dry soils fluffed by tillage.
If the planting furrow opens as soils dry
after planting, coleoptile growth stops
and the crown can be set near the seed,
essentially placing the seed and seedling
above the soil (Nafziger, 2012).
The nodal roots develop above the
seed and comprise the permanent root
system of corn. The nodal roots, not the
seminal roots (associated with the seed),
are important in providing the water and
the mineral nutrients that the corn plant
needs for normal growth and develop-
ment. If corn seed is planted 1.5 to 2
inches deep, then the nodal (or crown)
roots begin develop at about 3/4 inches
below the soil surface. However, if seed
is planted shallower (1 inch or less), then
the nodal roots may form near or at the
surface where they are more exposed to
fluctuations in soil moisture and tem-
perature.
Nodal root growth is very sensitive
to high temperatures (with root growth
slowing or stopping at soil temperatures
exceeding 86 degree Fahrenheit) com-
mon on conventionally tilled soils. When
unshaded surface soil temperatures reach
the mid 90s or higher on hot days, the
nodal root growth of shallow planted
corn may stop. Plants are forced to rely
on the seed root system or limited nodal
root growth until more favorable tem-
peratures and moisture conditions allow
nodal root growth to resume.
Certain types of herbicide injury (e.g.
2,4-D, Banvel) and insect feeding (e.g.
corn rootworm) may also cause lodging
to occur in corn plants during vegetative
development. Generally they are not the
major causes of the rootless corn prob-
lems. However, there may be situations
where insect feeding and/or herbicides
may be a contributing factor.
Can rootless corn recover? Yes, after
plants lodge, adequate rainfall will pro-
mote crown root development and plants
can recover. Cultivation to throw soil
around exposed roots may aid the corns
recovery. Since affected corn is likely to
be vulnerable to potential lodging prob-
lems at maturity, it should be harvested
as soon as grain moisture conditions per-
mit. Thomison, 2014 CORN newsletter).

more information.
Dr. Andy Michael, OSU Entomologist
supplied the following information:
Black cutworms are laid by moths
attracted to fields growing yellow rocket,
wheat, annual weeds or cover crops
in April and May. A cutworm will cut
three to four plants at night over its
lifetime and live in burrow underground
during the day. For more information,
see: (extension.entm.purdue.edu/pest-
cr op/ 2014/ i ssue6/ i ndex. ht ml #mot hs) .
Any corn should be scouted for the
presence of cutworm activity. For man-
agement, see ohioline.osu.edu/ent-fact/
pdf/0035.pdf
Slugs: Heavy slug feeding is starting
so like cutworm, any inspect corn or soy-
bean fields for slugs, especially in fields
with a history of slug damage. The two
available baits are those containing met-
aldehyde (Deadline MPs and others), and
those with iron phosphate (Sluggo). See
the slug fact sheet for more information:
ohioline.osu.edu/ent-fact/pdf/0020.pdf .
Armyworm: Corn is especially at risk
from true armyworms when planted into
rye cover crops. Armyworm is of most
concern on wheat when feeding on the
flag leaf. A fact sheet on armyworms
on wheat is available at http://ohioline.

Scientist gets World Food
Prize for wheat advances
DES MOINES, Iowa
(AP) A crop scientist
credited with develop-
ing hundreds of varieties
of disease-resistant wheat
adaptable to many cli-
mates and difficult grow-
ing conditions was named
Wednesday as the 2014
recipient of the World Food
Prize.
Sanjaya Rajaram, 71,
wins the $250,000 prize
founded by Nobel Peace
Prize laureate Norman
Borlaug that honors vital
contributions to improv-
ing the quality, quantity
or availability of food
throughout the world.
Rajaram, who was born
in India and is a citizen
of Mexico, began research
and field work with
Borlaug in 1969. He suc-
cessfully crossed varieties
of winter and spring wheat
with his own plant breeding
techniques, which led to
the development of plants
that have higher yields and
dependability under a wide
range of environments
important in keeping pace
with the growing world
population.
He is credited with
developing 480 wheat
varieties that have been
released in 51 countries on
six continents.
Its a great honor,
Rajaram said. Im a very
humble person but very
honored the World Food
Prize committee has rec-
ognized me for the work I
have done.
The next big challenge,
Rajaram believes, is devel-
oping plants with more
drought tolerance, staving
off the effects of salt water
intrusion as oceans rise,
and other issues related to
climate change.
Future crop production
is bound to decline unless
we fully factor in the issues
related to climate change,
soil fertility and water defi-
cits, and utilize advanced
genetics in the next 20 to
30 years, he said in a tele-
phone interview.
Rajaram was born in a
small village in the Uttar
Pradesh state in northeast
India, where people lived
on very little. He expanded
upon his mentor Borlaugs
work with his own achieve-
ments, said World Food
Prize Foundation President
Kenneth Quinn.
His breakthrough
breeding technologies have
had a far-reaching and sig-
nificant impact in provid-
ing more food around the
globe and alleviating world
hunger, Quinn said in a
statement.
Quinn said its fitting
that the prize be award-
ed to Rajaram as the Des
Moines-based organization
celebrates the centennial
of Borlaugs 1914 birth in
Cresco, Iowa. Borlaug,
who won the 1970 Nobel
for boosting agricultural
production in what has
become known as the Green
Revolution, launched the
World Food Prize in 1986.
He died in 2009.
Borlaug once referred
to Rajaram as the great-
est present-day wheat sci-
entist in the world, Quinn
said.
Raj ar am succeed-
ed Borlaug in lead-
ing wheat research at
the International Maize
and Wheat Improvement
Center, which was found-
ed in 1966 through an
agreement between the
Rockefeller Foundation
and t he Mexi can
Secretariat of Agriculture.
Prior to Rajarams
research, winter wheat and
spring wheat were distinct
gene pools. Rajarams new
varieties can be grown in
marginal areas, such as
small mountain plots in
Pakistan, remote areas in
China, and in the acidic
soils of Brazil, the founda-
tion said.
Rajaram said he plans
to give some of the money
from the prize to private
organizations in India who
work with the poor and use
the remaining money for
plant breeding research.
The announcement
was made at a ceremony
in Washington featuring
Secretary of State John
Kerry.
He said by inventing
heartier crops and new spe-
cies, Rajaram led an effort
to save 1 billion lives. With
projections that the global
population will grow by 2
billion more people in the
next three decades, its
not hard to figure out this
is the time for a second
Green Revolution, Kerry
said.
Innovation and inven-
tion are the way forward
and the way that we can
face the challenges of
food security and climate.
When it comes to climate
change, when it comes to
food security, we are lit-
erally facing a moment
of adversity perhaps even
dire necessity.
Rajaram will receive the
award at an Oct. 16 cer-
emony in Des Moines.

Pain Doctor Discovers Blood Flow-
Busting Material Into Miracle Socks
for Diabetics and Foot Pain Sufferers!
Breakthrough circulation-boosting fibers improve blood flow, relieve swelling,
boost oxygen flow, and eliminate foot fatigue - naturally in as little as 5 minutes!
Being Diabetic, I never had pain-free feet - UNTILNOW!
PAD ADVERTSEMENT
What part of your swollen, tired,
or achy feet would you like to see
go-away?
If you suffer from poor circula-
tion, injury, swelling or any condi-
tion that leaves your feet fatigued
and sore, then read on to discover
the breakthrough that can change
your life.
Good news comes in the form of
a pain-busting microfiber that is
used to weave a circulation-boost-
ing sock, called Bambusa
TM
.
Better Blood Flow
The miracle sock is made from
a new, patented anion-technology
that is weaved into every strand of
thread used to make a Bambusa
TM
sock. This special micro-fiber
thread is made from revolutionary
bamboo charcoal to stimulate
blood flow andrevitalize feet.
When this material comes in con-
tact with body-heat it is proven to
release circulation-boosting ions.
The 3D-weave technology used
in the material has been compared
to infrared light therapy to help re-
vitalize stiff and sore muscles. The
manufacturer, who also makes a
back and wrist sleeve, says the ma-
terial provides almost instant relief
to any part of the body it touches,
making it ideal for diabetics, ath-
letes,inflammation, stiffness and
swelling.
Anne M. from California agrees.
Bambusa socks are absolutely the
most comfortable socks I have ever
worn! My feet are no longer fa-
tigued!
Therapy
Without A Prescription!
When the socks were pho-
tographed using a thermographic
imaging camera, results showed up
to a 17% to 22% increase in blood
flow. This helped to improvemus-
cle oxygenation and decrease foot
fatigue. The socks have been proven
to provide extended relief from
cold, swollen and fatigued feet.
Doctor
Recommended
Pain specialist
of 30 years, Dr.
Jahner comments
on the 3D-weave
technology. In-
frared therapy has
been used for
years at medical
clinics to treat vascular and circula-
tory conditions. Physical therapists
use infrared therapy to speed re-
covery. Better blood flow equals
less pain. This microfiber works
much the same way.
"Circulatory dysfunction affects
MOST of the adult population in
the United States. Heart Disease,
Strokes and Diabetic conditions are
at epidemic levels; anything that
improves circulation improves cel-
lular health and vitality. I use the
Bambusa product myself and rec-
ommend it to my clients. It really
works! states Dr Jahner.
Results in Minutes?
John G. of California claims he
felt immediate results with his
tired, swollen feet. Without exag-
geration the relief was almost in-
stantaneous. It is like a heating pad
set to low and wrapped around my
calf. I will be replacing my entire
set of dress socks with these
socks!
Relief for Tired, Swollen Feet
Bambusa
TM
socks are not a med-
ical device or compression socks
because they dont restrict blood
flow. Utilizing the special negative-
anion technology, they comfortably
increase blood flow and oxygen to
tissues. My feet felt wonderful,
cool, and I never got that pins and
needles feeling anymore. I love my
Bambusa
TM
socks, says Nancy,
from NJ.
They are ideal for diabetics and
those suffering from neuropathy or
injury from repetitive use. Bam-
busa
TM
socks can also bring com-
fort to tired legs within minutes of
putting them on, energizing indi-
viduals who spend long hours on
their feet.
Goodbye to Pain and Numbness
Marilyn H. has suffered persist-
ent foot problems for years and no-
ticed fast results. The issue for me
was persistent numbness in my
toes - it was gone completely after
a few days of wearing these socks!
Being diabetic, I never had pain-
free feet - UNTILNOW!
I went out on the golf course

SENIOR LUNCHEON CAFE
Sara Says ...
By Sara Berelsman
I know you shouldnt judge a book by
its cover. But Ill admit it, I do. I cant help
it. And this book sucked me in from the
second I caught a glimpse of the cover. A
Portion of the Eternal by Maurice Jovan
had me at hello.
Okay, not hello. It had me at the
beautiful picture on the front, a pair of
outstretched hands holding
a dragonfly and heart locket.
I was intrigued. The intrigue
lasted through every last
page.
This book is pure poet-
ry. Literary magic. Jovan
manages to paint the most
indelible, stunning picture
of everything he describes,
which caused me to pause
and reflect quite a bit, and
its kind of rare for a book
to do that to me. I havent
been excited to read for quite
some time for some reason;
Ive been in sort of a read-
ing rut. This book woke me
from that. There are so many
themes woven throughout this text that my
mind was spinning as I simultaneously lin-
gered on every word, desperately wishing
I could write the way he does.
The chapters are short, which I love.
Long chapters in books can bog me down
and overwhelm me. This one moves right
along. I love the chapter titles: creative and
thought-provoking. The storyline had me
examining my own life, as every charac-
teristic of this book is deep and caused me
to stop and think. Dont read this book if
you dont like thinking. Ill admit, it took
me a long time to get through it, because it
is such heavy material. A girl is raped. Her
boyfriend has died, and the cause is some-
what mysterious. Everything that happens
resulted in strong self-examination for me.
I probably stopped a million times to think
really think about what Id just read.
Not because its difficult reading, because
its not. Its just eloquent, beautiful beyond
measure, and like a perfect
symphony, I wanted to soak
in every note.
I dont want to give away
too much of the plot, so I
wont. Ill just say there are
twists and turns at regular
intervals, and I was never
bored. Jovans creativity and
lyrical prose simply leaps off
the page, and it kept me
immersed in this powerful
story from beginning to end.
Its one of those books that,
upon reading, you wish you
had short-term memory loss
to forget it so you can read it
all over again and experience
its magic as brand new. Well,
Ill be reading it again regardless. Going
back through each and every Post-It where
I marked my favorite passages (and I think
I went through two packs) and re-examin-
ing my thoughts I had along the way.
This book is dark but its full of hope.
Its heavy but the way it makes you think
inevitably makes you feel lighter. Its like a
painting you want to stare at for hours and
dont want to walk away from.
I highly recommend A Portion of the
Eternal by Maurice Jovan. It will change
the way you read; the way you think; the
way you live. In a word love.
Add a little
southern flair to

You may just get
what you wish for !
By JIM METCALFE
Sports Editor
jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com
Perhaps this item goes along in some regards
with my column from last week about Donald Sterling
and his issues with the NBA.
Here goes.
The U.S. Patent and Trademark office ruled that
the Washington Redskins name was disparaging of
Native Americans and should lose its trademark pro-
tection.
Is anyone surprised by this news?
This was as unexpected as an arson fire.
I have written about this stuff before and I re-iter-
ate now what I put to pad and pen then be careful
what you wish for; you may not like what you get.
First of all, is the term Redskins offensive?
I know there is some controversy about why the
team was renamed the Redskins from the Boston
Braves in the early 1930s was it to honor the then-
coach and six of his players or for some other reason
but it made sense to distinguish the Boston Braves
(before moving to D.C.) football team from a baseball
team of the same name.
All I know is I can only speak for myself
when I think of the Washington Redskins, I think of
a football team; I do not think of what is now termed
Native Americans.
Just like when I think of the Dallas Cowboys, I
dont think of a bunch of guys roping a cow and rid-
ing a horse.
Can someone else have a different opinion and
truly be offended? By all means.
I guess that is determined by what youve experi-
enced in your life, your perceptions, views, etc., and I
cannot speak to what someone else might feel or think
in their heart of hearts.
I dont pretend that the history with Native
Americans is all roses and sugar plums.
However, when a national sports writer wrote an
opinion that if one yes, ONE person is offended
by a word, it is offensive, Houston, we have a prob-
lem!
If we take that to its logical end, well, you get the
picture.

Spain out; Netherlands
cruising; Africa struggles
By JOHN LEICESTER
Associated Press
RIO DE JANEIRO The king is dead.
The World Cup will have a new champion.
And the Netherlands look increasing-
ly like credible pretenders for that newly
vacated crown.
Just like France in 2002 and Italy in
2010, defending champion Spain is going
home tail between its legs.
Chile delivered the mortal blow to an
uninterrupted 6-year era of dominance for
Spain, the European and world champions
whose dazzling footballers ran out of puff in
Brazil. They were made to look vulnerable
last week in losing 5-1 to the Netherlands
and then simply plain ordinary in a 2-0 loss
to a physical and quick Chilean side.
The Netherlands, 3-2 winners against
Australia on Wednesday, and Chile are now
both sure to advance to the next knockout
round having won their two first matches.
They will now play each other Monday
to determine which of them tops Group B
and avoids a possible encounter with host
Brazil in the first knockout game on June
28.
In Wednesdays evening game, Croatia
ensured Cameroon wont go further, deliv-
ering a 4-0 thumping to the African side
whose injured star, Samuel Etoo, didnt
come off the bench.
This is shaping up as another tough
World Cup for Africa. Only Ivory Coast
has won so far its opener, 2-1, against
Japan. It plays Colombia in Group C
today, with the other matches Uruguay
vs. England in Group D and Japan vs.
Greece in Group C.
With strikers Mario Mandzukic
and Ivica Olic both scoring and mid-
fielder Ivan Perisic getting a goal, too,
Croatia presents a tough challenge
for Mexico in their last Group A match
Monday. Mexico needs at least a draw
to guarantee a place in the last 16. In the
other Group A match, Brazil should have
little difficulty against the feeble Cameroon
side that was reduced to 10 men after 40
minutes against Croatia when Alex Song
was shown red.
At the Maracana Stadium in Rio de
Janeiro, fevered Chile fans yelling Its
over! Its over! taunted Spanish support-
ers, some of them in tears, bitterly con-
templating the end of an era for one of
footballs greatest ever teams. Its success
back-to-back European titles and the
World Cup in 2010 has provided succor
in brutal economic times for Spaniards.
The only happiness weve had in
recent years has been football, said
Beatriz Corral, who came to Rio from
Madrid to cheer for Spain. Now the crisis
is complete. We dont have bread or the
circus.
Demolishing Spain last week
showed the Dutch can be spectacular.
Toughing out a come-from-behind
3-2 victory against Australia showed
them to also be resilient and cool
under pressure vital qualities for
the knockout rounds.
Arjen Robben opened the scoring for
the Netherlands before Tim Cahill brought
the sides level a minute later with a stun-
ning volley, one of the best strikes so far
in the tournament that has seen 60 goals
in 20 games.
Mile Jedinak then converted a 54th
minute penalty and Robin van Persie
equalized for the Netherlands with his
third goal of the tournament. A goal-
keeping blunder by Maty Ryan then
handed substitute Memphis Depay his
first international goal, the winner for the
Netherlands.

Defending Sonoma winner Truex wants repeat
Associated Press
Martin Truex was the toast of wine country when he left the
road course of Sonoma a winner for the first time in six years.
Truex returns this weekend aiming for another win, but so
much else has changed.
Hell bring a new team, different car and new sense of
desperation as he tries to force his way into the Chase for the
Sprint Cup Championship.
Truex was booted from the Chase last season in the aftermath
of the Richmond scandal. In his first season driving the No. 78
Chevrolet for Furniture Row Racing, Truex hasnt come close
to sniffing a checkered flag, buried at 25th in the points stand-
ings with only three top-10 finishes and no top fives.
He posted consecutive top-10s and Dover and Pocono
before an early-race accident last weekend at Michigan
knocked him out of the race.
We just need to start a new streak in Sonoma, said Truex.
Weve had way too much bad luck so far but we will keep
plugging away and hope what goes around comes around.
Truexs previous only Sprint Cup Series win had been at
Dover in 2007 and he was on a 218-race winless streak before
winning at Sonoma for Michael Waltrip Racing. He led 51 out
of 110 laps, though it was far from the breakthrough victory
he hoped it would become.
He lost his sponsor and job following Richmond a trifec-
ta of bad news that left him scrambling for a ride late in 2013.
Truex didnt strike a deal with Furniture Row until November.
Furniture Row, a 1-car operation based in Denver, far
removed from NASCARs North Carolina hub, had amazing
success last season with Kurt Busch. Busch turned the orga-
nization into championship contenders, helping them become
the first single-car team to earn a berth in the Chase.
Under the revamped Chase rules, Truex can do the same with
a victory. Hed love for a win to jump-start a rough season that
has been far from expected from one of last seasons top drivers.
When it comes to winning, this is one race that has been
circled on the schedule, Truex added. However, there are so
many excellent road course drivers right now and I am sure
this race has also been circled on their calendars as well.
TOYOTA DEAL: Toyota signed a 3-year extension to remain
the co-title sponsor of the Sprint Cup race at Sonoma Raceway.
Toyota Motor Sales USA and the Northern California
Toyota Dealers have served as co-title of the race since 2007.
Toyota is also Sonomas official vehicle. The 2014 season
marks Toyotas 10th anniversary participating in NASCAR
national series competition.

(Continued from page 6)
I have tried to do some research
before I wrote this (it is by no means
exhaustive and comprehensive and any-
one interested in this subject can look
into it more) but what I have found is
that the majority of people polled (some-
times by a wide margin, sometimes
not) including some done by Native
American interests is that the name
should not be changed or they have no
opinion.
In the reportage on this item, the
office itself claimed it used polls
along with old movie clips, current
dictionaries and other evidence that
claimed at least 30 percent of Native
Americans were offended to make its
ruling.
If this is part of the why, then what
about the other 70 percent that appar-
ently either dont give a flip or arent
offended? They might have other issues
on the table to worry about.
I also dont necessarily like to use
polling for various reasons but it
is part of the story here.
Quite frankly, when I hear politicians
talk about Washington owner Daniel
Snyder doing what is right or some
other remark - well, consider the
source.
Are these same nattering nabobs of
negativism going to demand if they
are consistent, they should, but we all
know how that turns out that the Notre
Dame Fighting Irish are offensive?
How about as a Catholic: the New
Orleans Saints? It is supposed to be a
term of endearment and part of its his-
tory but is it really, with Bourbon Street
and all?
When you think of the NO Saints, do
you really think of saints?
Or the San Diego Padres, with its
mascot being the Swinging Friar
what looks to me like a fat friar that I
consider a cartoon of a real Franciscan
friar.
We can go on down the list: the
cut-throat Raiders, Buccaneers, Pirates,
Vikings, etc. those that murdered
and stole as a way of life. Should we be
celebrating or honoring their spirit?
Are Braves, Chiefs, Seminoles and
the like offensive or are they somehow
OK as positively celebrating a spirit
(Tomahawk Chop, anyone?)?
Guaranteed, someone is angry about
nicknames such as Bears, Bengals, etc.,
as being offensive to animals, to being
anti-animalist.
Why is my offended not as impor-
tant as someone elses?
It can get pretty ridiculous, cant it,
but I guarantee you that I am not the
only one thinking this way.
Snyder has vowed he will not change
the name of his team. He is arguing out
of principle.
We shall see if that holds sway.

Same course, new cast of players at Pinehurst
By DOUG FERGUSON
Associated Press
PINEHURST, N.C. The sounds at
Pinehurst No. 2 were the first indication
that the second week of U.S. Open golf
would not be exactly the same as the
first one.
Players arrived on the first day of
practice to hear clanging from workers
tearing down half of the grandstands
around the 17th and 18th greens. They
heard the whoosh of water coming from
a hose that watered the greens to keep
them softer.
That didnt make the stage for the
U.S. Womens Open feel any smaller.
We play good golf courses but some-
times we dont play great golf courses,
said Juli Inkster, playing the Womens
Open for the 35th time. It seems the
men play great golf courses week in and
week out. I think when we come here,
were maybe a little more appreciative
of playing a great golf course. Its in
fabulous shape. I really didnt know
what to expect, us playing after the men.
And its turned out great.
You cant even tell that the men
were here the week before except for
the huge tents and everything.
The U.S. Womens Open gets started
today in golfs version of a doublehead-
er. Just four days after Martin Kaymer
won the U.S. Open with the second-
lowest score in history (271), its the
womens turn.
Everyone from the 53-year-old
Inkster to 11-year-old Lucy Li will get a
crack on a Donald Ross course fresh on
the minds of golf fans who watched the
U.S. Open last week.
Last week with the men, they proved
that under par is possible, defending
champion Inbee Park said. So yeah,
we should go out there and try to shoot
under par.
Its the first time the men and women
have competed on the same golf course
for a major in back-to-back weeks.
Pinehurst No. 2 will play at 6,649 for
the women just over 900 yards short-
er than for the men though it most
likely wont play as long as the card
indicated, just as it didnt a week ago.
The plan is for the greens to be the
same speed, except a lot less firm. Even
though a shorter course should allow the
women to use the same clubs, the major-
ity do not hit the ball as high or with as
much spin.
And then there are the optional extras.
Reg Jones, the senior director of both
U.S. Opens, told reporters bleachers
around the 18th green that seated 4,077
seats now are big enough for 1,560 fans.
Six supplemental concession stands
have closed.
The USGA refers to this double-
header as a celebration of womens golf.
It sounds a bit more like an
experiment.
No one is sure what to
expect.
Cristie Kerr, who won her
U.S. Womens Open up the
road at Pine Needles in 2007,
already was concerned about
the weed-filled sandy areas
that replaced thick rough.
Kaymer last week hit a 7-iron
from 202 yards out of the scrub area to 5
feet for eagle on No. 5, one of the more
pivotal shots of his blowout win.
The native areas the stuff they
were calling it last week thats going
to play a lot tougher for us than it is
for the men, Kerr said. Were hitting
longer clubs out of it than the men are.
Were not hitting down on it as much.
So it plays tougher for us. They
wanted us to hit the same clubs into the
greens as the men. But I have to tell
you, were hitting longer clubs into the
greens than the men and we dont spin
it as much.
What will that mean to a sixth-grade
girl?
Li has been the biggest attraction this
week as the youngest qualifier in U.S.
Womens Open history, with a chance
to become the youngest player to make
the cut. Marlene Bauer was 13 when she
tied for 14th in the 1947 U.S. Womens
Open in Greensboro.
The perfect week? I just want to go
out there and have fun and play the best
I can, Li told reporters. And I really
dont care about the outcome.
The biggest fear was the amount of
divots left behind from the men, though
that doesnt appear to be a problem.
We really feel like were well-posi-
tioned for a great championship this
week, USGA executive director Mike
Davis said.
The biggest concern is making sure
the greens dont get so crusty from
temperatures expected to approach 100
degrees that its impossible for balls to
stay on the green.
As soon as the U.S. Open ended, the
maintenance staff applied water to the
greens in 4-minute cycles, three times a
day. It plans to water the greens every
night.
Theyve obviously chucked a lot
of waters on the greens since Sunday,
Laura Davies said after her practice
round Tuesday. I didnt have one shot
bounce crazy off the back of the green. I
think we all thought that it should have
been the other way around
we all felt we should have
come here first and then the
guys.
But I think the USGA has
got it spot on. Because they
have turned the course around
and gone from a Sunday of
a U.S. Open to having it play
really fair at the moment.
Im sure by next Sunday
it will be hard and bouncy and were all
going to be complaining like we always
do.
Inkster says 35th US Womens Open will be her
last: Inkster made the cut in her first U.S. Womens
Open when she was an 18-year-old amateur. She
finished 10 shots behind Hollis Stacy. JoAnne Carner
was a runner-up. That was in 1978, back when Willie
McCovey was still playing first base for the San
Francisco Giants.
Inkster is playing the Womens Open for the 35th
time this week and the 53-year-old from the Bay Area
announced Wednesday it probably will be her last.
Probably.
Im not playing much, Inkster said. I think Im only
going to play a couple more this year. And next year
Ill probably just play like six tournaments, too. This is
probably my last one.
A moment of sadness? Not quite.
Shoot, Ive played in 35 of these, so thats pretty
impressive, Inkster said, a 2-time Open champion and
Hall-of-Fame member. I love where I am right now. I
look at the young girls out there and Im like, Wow. Im
so glad Im not starting. So Ive really enjoyed golf. Ive
really enjoyed the competition. I love playing. Ive got a
lot of new stuff, Solheim stuff, and doing a little TV com-
mentating. Im still going to be out here and be busy. But
Im definitely not going to play as much.
Inkster hasnt won in nearly eight years and last
made the cut in the Womens Open in 2009. She
qualified this year at No. 69 on the LPGA Tour money list
from last season. The top 70 are exempt from qualifying.
She won her first Womens Open at Old Waverly
in 1999 and then captured the career Grand Slam
a few weeks later at the LPGA Championship. But her
highlight was at Prairie Dunes, when she closed with a
66 to overtake Annika Sorenstam in 2002 at the height
of the Swedes game.
As for the probably?
Go back to Old Waverly, her first Womens Open.
Her daughters were in the first and fifth grades. Inkster
spoken then that was 15 years ago about slowing
down.
My goal right now is to play on the Solheim Cup in
2000 thats in Scotland, she said after her victory. After
that I said this two years ago that I was going to cut
back but I just really foresee myself playing 10 to 12
tournaments a year.
She played at least 18 events for 11 years after
that Solheim Cup team. She played on six more teams.
One daughter is out of college. Another is at Villanova.
Inkster loves to compete. She doesnt like the daily grind
of practice, saying golf today is more of a job.
With no points from its first two games, Spain will play
only for pride when it meets Australia also winless in its
first two games in their last match Group B match.
Then it will be adios and a return home to the inevitable
post-mortem of how a team that played like clockwork in
defending its European title two years ago could fall so far, so
quickly.
In Brazil, the advancing age of key players, grievous mis-
takes from captain Iker Casillas and others and coach Vicente
del Bosques failure to read the writing on the wall fatally
threw the Spanish machine out of gear.
Spains demise was also a reminder of how difficult it is to
retain the World Cup and for coaches to keep teams fresh and
motivated in the 4-year gap between tournaments.
Only Italy winners in 1934 and 1938 and Brazil
champions in 1958 and 1962 have won back-to-back World
Cups.
Del Bosque came to Brazil with a goalkeeper, Casillas, who
is no longer undisputed No. 1 at his club, Real Madrid. They
have a midfield playmaker, Xavi Hernandez, who at 34 is
passed his peak, and with a new striker, Diego Costa, who has
been a major disappointment, not finding the net once.
Spain
Masters champion Bubba Watson won
the 2010 tournament for his first PGA
Tour title, overcoming a 6-stroke deficit
and beating Scott Verplank on the sec-
ond hole of playoff. J.J. Henry won
in 2006 to become the first Connecticut
winner in tournament history. The
Quicken Loans National is next week at
Congressional in Bethesda, Maryland, fol-
lowed by The Greenbrier Classic in White
Sulphur Springs, West Virginia.

ARCA COVERAGE: CBS Sports Network will become
the newest ARCA Racing Series television partner this week-
end when the network broadcasts the Akona 250 at Elko
(Minnesota) Speedway on Saturday.
ARCA and CBS Sports Network signed a contract earlier
this year for the network to broadcast three live ARCA races
this season. CBS Sports Networks coverage begins with the 9
p.m. ET race from the short track in Minnesota.
In addition, CBS Sports Network will televise races July 6
from Winchester (Indiana) Speedway and Aug. 24 at Madison
International Speedway in Oregon, Wisconsin. The stock car
series, which has no affiliation with NASCAR, sometimes
serves as a support race during the weekend.
AMBROSE CONTRACT: Marcos Ambrose is one driver
who cant wait to hit the road course at Sonoma. Hes a noted
road course ace, with two wins at Watkins Glen and five top
10s and a pole at Sonoma.
Ambrose could use a win to vault him into Chase conten-
tion and perhaps solidify his standing with Richard Petty
Motorsports. Ambroses deal is up at the end of the season,
leaving him open to speculation that hell return to Australia
to race in the V8 Super Series.
Im in a renewal year with Richard Petty for 2015,
Ambrose added. Im not really thinking about myself here.
I just want the best for RPM. They have decisions to make
along the way here. I want to help them make their decisions
and be where they want to be.

handle their finances and health
care can be a challenging gift
to give. You want to honor
their wishes and respect their
boundaries, while at the same
time acting in their best interest.
But it can be hard to know where
to begin and whom to trust, and
you always wonder if youre
forgetting something.
To help your readers carry
out this important role, the
Federal Citizen Information
Center created the free Family
Caregivers Kit. It features
publications from the Consumer
Financial Protection Bureau that
explain how to manage a loved
ones money and protect seniors
from scams. And it also contains
publications from the FDAs
Office of Womens Health to
keep track of medications and
learn to use them safely. The kit
is full of practical tips that give
caregivers the confidence they
need to manage a loved ones
affairs.
Abby, thanks for sharing the
free Family Caregivers Kit. From
one daughter to another, you
know how important it is to stand
up and support family members
through lifes challenges. --
SARAH CRANE, ACTING
DIRECTOR, FEDERAL
CITIZEN INFORMATION
CENTER
DEAR MS. CRANE: Thank
you for offering this important
information to my readers. It
is important because accepting
this kind of responsibility
should not be done without fully
understanding what it will entail.
The publications you sent to me
-- and will send to my readers --
provide an illuminating overview
of the responsibilities involved.
Readers, this years packet
is not to be missed, particularly
if you have aging relatives or
a friend who may need you to
handle his/her affairs, even for a
short period of time.
These booklets are offered
free of charge and include the
Managing Someone Elses
Money series of publications,
which cover Power of Attorney
and Managing Trusts, Property
and Benefits. They are written in
plain English and are in an easy-
to-understand format.
Also included is a pamphlet
on using medications wisely.
Did you know that 125,000
people die each year because
they didnt take their medication
as directed -- and many more
get sick because they didnt
properly follow the directions
on the label? (I didnt.) Another
pamphlet shares information on
recognizing and avoiding health
scams, so you and your loved
ones can watch out for miracle
devices and cures that really
ARE too good to be true.
But wait! Theres more ...
You will also receive a copy
of the 2014 Consumer Action
Handbook, which contains not
only information you need to
make the best decisions about
what you buy and the service
providers you use, but also a
sample complaint letter to help
you get results.

Q: I have a question about the 1950 film Riding High, starring
Bing Crosby, Coleen Gray, Charles Bickford, Frances Gifford and
William Demarest. Crosby was a horse trainer who fell on hard times.
Out of desperation, he relies on his horse, Broadway Bill, to win a
major race. I love the movie! It seems eerily familiar though. Was this
film based on another with a similar plot? -- G.U., Spring Hill, Fla.
A: Riding High (1950) is a remake of the 1934 film Broadway
Bill. Frank Capra directed both films.
Broadway Bill starred Warner Baxter and
Myrna Loy. Raymond Walburn and Clarence
Muse appeared in both movies.
**
Q: Maybe you can settle a dispute. I recently
watched the 1943 movie Girl Crazy on TV. In
it, there is a scene where Mickey Rooney plays
the piano with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra.
I watched it closely, and I think he is really
playing the piece. My friend says it was dubbed
in. Who wins? -- G.H., Lockport, N.Y.
A: Mickey Rooney does play the piano, and
he plays it well. Rooney really played along
with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra in the song
Fascinatin Rhythm.
**
DID YOU KNOW? The role of Adrian Monk
on Monk was originally offered to Michael
Richards, better known as Cosmo Kramer on
Seinfeld. The project never took off. It was
pitched again to another network, and Tony
Shalhoub was offered the role. He accepted.
Shalhoub won three Emmys for his portrayal
of the obsessive-compulsive detective.
Q: I have come across the term bread
and circuses when describing an unpleasant
situation several times over my many years of
existence. I have no idea what the term means
and how it applies to harsh times. -- C.L.,
Alliance, Neb.
A: The term is said to have originated in the
satires of Roman poet Juvenal as panem et
circenses, so its been around for quite some
time. In this instance, circus refers to the
games of ancient Rome, like the chariot races.
Bread and circuses is a term that describes
the things that keep people happy and divert
attention from problems.

Abandon the dead weight
that is holding you back. Learn
from past experience and set
new goals. Identify whats
important to you and how you
can use your skills to suit your
dreams, hopes and wishes for
the future. Positive action is the
answer.
GEMINI (May 21-June
20) -- You will not get a lot of
cooperation today. Be prepared
to do as much as you can on
your own, without worrying
about what others are up to.
CANCER (June 21-July
22) -- You will get along well
with others today. Share your
hopes and dreams to elicit
some interesting suggestions.
This would be an ideal time for
a getaway.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
-- Money matters appear
favorable. Financial aid will
appear from an unexpected
source. An intriguing offer
will lay the groundwork for a
change of direction.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
-- Resist the inclination to give
up when faced with an obstacle.
Dont let stubbornness lead to
a missed opportunity. You will
discover that things arent as
diffcult as you thought.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
-- Dont get fustered by the
changes taking place lately.
Things will calm down in good
time. Ride out the storm and
show maturity and leadership.
After all, the situation is only
temporary.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
22) -- You will be rewarded for
your hard work. Your skills and
common sense are valuable
qualities, so make sure you
are available to attend as
many career functions or get-
togethers as possible.

complain or try to rationalize
your behavior. Do your share
and avoid criticism and bad
feelings.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-
Jan. 19) -- Get in touch with
someone you havent seen in

old business acquaintance
or friend, re-establishing
the connection will be eye-
opening.

doing something new. Consider

PISCES (Feb. 20-March
20) -- Bring your feelings out

Many rebuilding challenges
ahead for Nebraska town
PILGER, Neb. (AP)
Soon the roughly 350 resi-
dents of this farming town
in northeastern Nebraska
will face a momentous deci-
sion that people in other U.S.
towns devastated by tornadoes
have agonized over: stay and
rebuild, or leave.
Pilgers slogan The
little town too tough to die
has never faced this direct
a threat. More than three-quar-
ters of Pilger was damaged or
destroyed by Mondays tor-
nadoes, which also killed two
people and injured at least 19.
The storm didnt just damage
homes, but also the down-
town, middle school and the
Pilger Co-op, the towns big-
gest employer.
The post-storm recov-
ery struggles faced by places
such as Greensburg, Kansas;
Spencer, South Dakota;
Hallam, Nebraska; and
Thurman, Iowa; show it wont
be easy.
Pilger Board Chairman Jim
Duncan sounded upbeat about
his towns future despite all
the damage. After retrieving
a couple pairs of jeans from
the wreckage of his home,
Duncan even joked that people
who thought the town needed
a new middle school would
likely get their wish.
You just pick up the piec-
es and move forward, said
Duncan, who had bandages
affixed to his forehead and
temple for a bump and small
cut.
Most Pilger residents will
have to wait to learn how
much insurance coverage they
have before deciding wheth-
er to move. Business owner
Linda Oertwich said Tuesday
after viewing the extensive
damage that she wasnt sure
the town would recover.
People are much more
likely to rebuild if they live
in a close-knit community
and have ties to the area, said
Laszlo Kulcsar, director of the
Kansas Population Center at
Kansas State University.
Communities have been
destroyed by tornadoes before.
Most of them just rebuild,
said Kulcsar, who studied
Greensburgs decision to rein-
vent itself with green technol-
ogy when it rebuilt after a
2007 tornado wiped out most
of the rural community.
Greensburg lost roughly
half of its population as it was
being reborn as an environ-
mentally friendly town. Even
without drastic changes, towns
risk losing residents while
rebuilding, especially profes-
sionals whose jobs could be
done elsewhere.
As in most small rural
communities, Pilgers popu-
lation was already declining,
falling from a high of 578 in
1930 to 352 in the most-recent
Census. And Pilger residents
have the option of moving
to the larger communities of
Norfolk or Wayne less than
half an hour away.
In 1998, a tornado killed
6 people and leveled most
of the buildings in Spencer,
South Dakota. Despite efforts
to rebuild and attract resi-
dents, the towns population
fell from about 370 to fewer
than 170.
Spencer has a bank, cof-
fee shop, beauty shop, day
care, library and Post Office.
But many other businesses
and three of its four churches
werent rebuilt.
We havent had any houses
for probably two years now,
Donna Ruden, town board
president, said Wednesday.
Its slow. You always want
what your town had before the
tornado, but thats not going to
happen.
An April 2012 tornado
damaged 95 percent of the
southwest Iowa town of
Thurman, but didnt cause
serious injuries.
More than two years later,
Mayor Rod Umphreys said the
town is bouncing back.
The biggest thing was that
sense of community, and peo-
ple wanted to stay, Umphreys
said of the recovery effort.
They werent going to let
(the tornado) shake their spir-
its. Its where they lived, its
where they came from, and
that was what was important
to them, so they rebuilt.
Nebraska Gov. Dave
Heineman predicted Pilger
would rebound, just as other
Nebraska towns have, such
as Hallam, the southeast
Nebraska town that was nearly
obliterated by a tornado in
2004 and saw its population
drop from 276 to 213 after
rebuilding.
?We rebuilt Hallam.
Were going to rebuild Pilger,
Heineman said. I know we
are going to get that done.
Rebuilding the towns grain
elevator will be key. Officials
with the co-op, which is
owned by area farmers, were
busy trying to recover what
they could from the facility
Wednesday, so they werent
available to discuss the future.
Pilger wont be facing all
of its trials alone, however.
Officials said 1,800 volun-
teers helped out Wednesday,
and the city of Beaver
Crossing, which was hit by
a tornado on Mothers Day,
sent its city clerk to aid Pilger
officials.
Senators propose 12-cent gas tax increase
WASHINGTON (AP) Two
senators unveiled a bipartisan plan
Wednesday to raise federal gasoline
and diesel taxes for the first time in
more than two decades, pitching the
proposal as a solution to Congress
struggle to pay for highway and tran-
sit programs.
The plan offered by Sens. Chris
Murphy, D-Conn., and Bob Corker,
R-Tenn., would raise the 18.4 cents-
a-gallon federal gas tax and 24.4
cents-a-gallon diesel tax each by 12
cents over the next two years, and
then index the taxes to keep pace
with inflation. The increase would
be applied in two increments of 6
cents each.
The plan also calls for offsetting
the tax increases with other tax cuts.
Senators said that could be done by
permanently extending six of 50 fed-
eral tax breaks that expired this year,
but they indicated they would be
open to other suggestions for offsets.
The plan was immediately
embraced by industry and trans-
portation advocacy groups seeking
a long-term means to keep the fed-
eral Highway Trust Fund solvent.
However, it would require a lot of
heavy lifting from Congress in the
politically charged atmosphere of
an election year to pass such a plan
before late August, when the trust
fund is forecast to go broke.
Senate Finance Committee
Chairman Ron Wyden, D-Ore., has
indicated hes looking for means
to shore up the fund for about the
next six months while working on
a long-term plan. That would move
debate on a gas tax increase or
some other revenue-raising scheme
until after the midterm elections in
November.
Revenue from gas taxes and
other transportation user fees that
for decades hasnt kept pace with
promised federal transportation aid
promised to states. People are driv-
ing less per capita and cars are more
fuel efficient, keeping revenues
fairly flat. At the same time, the cost
of construction has increased, and
the nations infrastructure is aging,
creating greater demand for new and
rebuilt roads and bridges.
The last time federal gas and
diesel taxes were increased was in
1993 as part of plan to reduce the
federal budget deficit. Republicans
castigated Democrats for the tax
increase, and it was a factor in the
GOP takeover of the House and
Senate the following year.
Since then, lawmakers have been
reluctant to raise fuel taxes despite
calls from several blue-ribbon com-
missions to do so.
For too long, Congress has shied
away from taking serious action to
update our countrys aging infra-
structure, Murphy said in a state-
ment. Were currently facing a
transportation crisis that will only
get worse if we dont take bold
action to fund the Highway Trust
Fund.
Sen. Tom Carper, D-Delaware,
who attempted to increase the gas
tax increase in 2010, said he was
glad to see the idea gaining more
bipartisan support.
Since 2008, Congress has repeat-
edly dipped into the general trea-
sury for money to keep the trust
fund solvent, sometimes waiting
until the government was the verge
of slowing down payments to states.
States have complained that the
uncertainty over whether federal
aid will be forthcoming has limited
their ability to commit to larger
projects that take years to plan and
construct.
Congress should be embarrassed
that it has played chicken with the
Highway Trust Fund and allowed it
to become one of the largest budget-
ing failures in the federal govern-
ment, Corker said.
The six expired tax breaks iden-
tified by the senators as possible
offsets for fuel tax increases are
a research and development tax
credit, certain expensing by small
businesses, the state and local sales
tax deduction, increasing employ-
er-provided transit benefits to the
same level as parking benefits, a
deduction for spending by teach-
ers on classroom supplies, and an
increased deduction for land conser-
vation and easement donations.
The anti-tax Club for Growth,
which is influential with GOP
conservatives, issued a statement
opposing the plan. Congress should
devolve highway funding to the
states and let them fund their own
infrastructure needs, said Chris
Chocola, the groups president.
Ohio coal company sues
over carbon emissions rules
WASHINGTON (AP) One of the nations largest coal
companies on Wednesday sued President Barack Obamas
administration seeking to block the Environmental Protection
Agencys new carbon emissions rules for power plants.
The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the
District of Columbia Circuit by Murray Energy Corp. EPA
rules announced this month seek to reduce global warming by
forcing a 30 percent cut in carbon dioxide emissions from 2005
levels by 2030.
Murray Energy, based in St. Clairsville, Ohio, calls the
regulations illegal, irrational, and destructive and argues
they will destroy millions of jobs.
This is clearly an illegal attempt by the Obama EPA to
impose irrational and destructive cap-and-tax mandates, which
Congress and the American people have consistently rejected,
said Gary Broadbent, the companys assistant general counsel.
Murray Energy is the nations largest privately owned
coal company, according to its website. It employs more
than 7,200 people in West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois,
Pennsylvania and Utah.
An EPA spokeswoman, Liz Purchia, declined to comment
on the lawsuit. But she added that the EPA writes solid rules
and they stand up in court courts have reaffirmed our sci-
ence and reasoning time and time again.
Last month, Murray Energy filed a lawsuit challenging new
federal regulations to cut the amount of coal dust in coal mines,
saying they are overly burdensome and costly to the industry.

The RSP Grant program provides financial assistance to

jobs and generate new investment within the AEP Ohio ser-
vice territory.
We hope to get the new building closed in in the next
two weeks, weather permitting, Delphos Plant Manager Dave
Unverferth said Wednesday. We have a finish date of Sept. 1
and the new addition will house 70 percent manufacturing and
30 percent warehouse storage.
Unverferth said the new building will allow the business to
spread out production for more efficiency.
Unverferth also announced the purchase of 6 3/4 acres of
property that formally hosted Huffy Manufacturing and seven
acres of adjacent farm land on the south side of State Route
697 across the road from the facility.
We will be tearing the buildings down so the property
is no longer an eyesore and that will allow us to expand our
outside storage, Unverferth said.
Other business incentives which made the expansion at the
facility attractive for the Delphos plant was a Van Wert County
Enterprise Zone Tax Exemption for real property tax and a
JobsOhio grant coordinated by Regional Growth Partnership
(RGP) helped to make the project possible.
Unverferth was granted a 10-year, 90-percent tax abate-
ment by Delphos City Schools in late November for expansion
project.
Van Wert County Economic Development Director Cindy
Leis said she is pleased to see business retention and expan-
sion in the county and expects additional economic improve-
ments throughout the county in 2014.
Unverferth Manufacturing has been serving American
farm operations since 1948 with tillage equipment, pull-type
sprayers, hay, seed and grain handling equipment and agri-
cultural dual and specialty wheels. The company is based in
Kalida, with additional plants located in Shell Rock, Iowa,
and Delphos.

Clement asked Jettinghoff if the rate
increases were not passed, how long
it would take for the Water and Sewer
funds to become insolvent. Jettinghoff
said in four years, both accounts would
either break even or have negative bal-
ances.
Osting prefaced his no vote on
the sewer increase with concern over
increasing carry-over balances in that
account and what the money would be
spent on.
Im not willing to pass this because
I dont want that money in there and we
dont know what its being spent on,
Osting said.
With the increase in the sewer rate,
the ending balance on Dec. 31, 2014,
is projected to be $571,000, including
a $200,000 transfer from the General
Fund, representing a portion of the
money freed up in the account by the
income tax increase that will be exclu-
sively used for Parks and Recreation.
On Dec. 31, 2015, the projected balance
is $493,000 with a $300,000 transfer
from the GF; and in 2016, the fund is
expected to close at $746,000.
The administration must have coun-
cils approval to spend $25,000 or more.
Council also cleared three pieces of
emergency legislation on second read-
ing including a contract with Stolly
Insurance for general property and lia-
bility for $78,194. The policy amount
is $1,115 more than previously quoted
due to a $1 million increase in cover-
age at Stollys suggestion. The increase
brings the city in line with the coverage
of comparable municipalities.
Establishing a Park Fund within the
city accounts for the income tax increase
revenues and an agreement of separa-
tion for the citys dispatchers were also
approved.
The 2015 Budget was carried to third
reading.
The next council meeting will begin
at 7 p.m. on July 7.

We have had a lot of supportive friends who
have stood by us through it all, Irwin said.
They offered to help in any way; rides to
medical appointments, companionship, etc.
One couple bought me a huge Superman
throw, Wade explained. It was empowering
as well as comforting and they have always
been there.
Both agreed that pets also play a vital role
in the healing process.
All cats and dogs are intuitive as to whats
going on and have a calming influence,
Wade explained. When Jane is not feeling
well, Andi is right there by her side.
Wade said she does have to exercise some
preventative health maintenance since she has
diabetes and congestive heart failure.
She works in the yard like a dog with no
issues and does take care of her health, Irwin
said. Right now, her health is good and we
live each day to its fullest.
They both agree that it is important to
never lose hope and keep a positive attitude
each day they are alive.
