4th of July fest goes off with a bang

BY STACY TAFF staff@delphosherald.com Wisher said. The weathers been really generous to us this year. The crowds died down a little during the day but with the long weekend we expected that. It always picks back up in the evening. The kickball tournament has been a great addition and a big success. Aside from that and the dunking booth, everything has pretty much stayed the same except the celebration just keeps getting bigger and bigger each year. Even with all of the people and alcohol at Stadium Park, things went smoothly with minimal complications. There were no major issues and I guess you could say that everything went off without a hitch, Craig Mansfield of the Parks and Recreation Department said. The new additions have gone over really well, the dunk tank and kickball the Kiwanis did; and of course the weather has cooperated beautifully. As for the fireworks, Wishers said they would be just as good, if not better than last year.

Perennials such as miniature golf, rides and games of chance were also part of the event as Jared Lucas played the ring toss.

DELPHOS Its impossible to imagine more perfect weather for the Independence Day celebrations Delphos residents enjoyed over the weekend. According to the Delphos Kiwanis Club and Parks and Recreation Department, the weather wasnt the only thing that was perfect. The whole weekend just went really well, Kiwanis member Jamey

The donations we received have been great, he said. We spent about $8,000 on the fireworks display this year. It should be a good show. Mansfield expressed the Parks and Recreation Departments gratitude to the Kiwanis for making their job easy. We really appreciate the Kiwanis taking the lead this year, he said. Theyve put in a lot of volunteer hours and a lot of work and I think its really paid off. The community is very happy with it.

Fireworks, parades: US celebrates 4th of July

By KAREN ZRAICK Associated Press NEW YORK The nations most extravagant display of July 4 fireworks Monday was a triumphant celebration that turned sober briefly to commemorate the 10-year mark since the Sept. 11 attacks. Tens of thousands of people from around the world streamed to Manhattans West Side to see the pyrotechnics show over the Hudson River between New York and New Jersey, featuring more than 40,000 shells exploding in choreographed, multicolored progression. Its beautiful, said Rosa Riveras, a 57-year-old health educator from Manhattan, as bursts of light filled the sky. Its amazing. Im loving it. NBC ran an exclusive broadcast from a pier along the river, with Nick Lachey of the show The Sing-Off hosting. Viewers got prerecorded performances by Beyonce, filmed in front of the Statue of Liberty, and country music star Brad Paisley. Then the fireworks lit up the sky, tightly choreographed to a half-hour soundtrack from Katy Perry, LeAnn Rimes, Jennifer Hudson and other artists. Beth Cochran of Scottsdale, Ariz., was with two childhood friends from Fishkill, N.Y. The group of three periodically broke into renditions of God Bless America and other patriotic songs. We do not take friendship or freedom for granted, said Cochran, wearing an American flag tank top. Im proud to be an American. John Woods, a 52-yearold information technology consultant from Wimbledon, England, said he appreciated the diversity of the crowd, which included many immigrants and tourists from around the country and abroad. I think its just a celebration of being an American, he said. The show, sponsored by Macys, paid tribute to the 125th anniversary of the Statue of Libertys debut in New York Harbor. Fireworks blasted off from six barges along the river to heights of 1,000 feet. As Amazing Grace was sung, bursts of golden fireworks lit up the sky to pay tribute to victims of 9/11. Big cheers broke out in the crowd during the finale. All across the country, Americans marked the 235th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence with parades, fireworks, barbecues plus presidential campaigning, a White House birthday and competitive eating. Thousands showed up near the Washington Monument to eagerly await the annual fireworks show on the National Mall, while others were throwing on Hawaiian shirts and shorts to ski the stillsnowy slopes at resorts from California to Colorado. Earlier in the day on New Yorks Coney Island, the annual Nathans Famous July Fourth hot dog-eating contest brought out the biggest names in competitive eating for a clash that was short in timespan but high in calories. Joey Jaws Chestnut, of San Jose, Calif., wolfed down 62 hot dogs and buns during the 10-minute contest, winning his fifth straight title. Sonya The Black Widow Thomas chowed her way to victory in the first-ever women-only contest, eating 40 hot dogs, one shy of her 2009 total. In Boston, the annual Boston Pops concert was a must. In Akron, Ohio, the Rib, White & Blue Food Festival was enticing. And then, there were Nevadas casinos, which promised a pyrotechnics extravaganza that could be a gamblers best bet. At the mountaintop home of Thomas Jefferson in Charlottesville, Va., officials continued a nearly five-decade-old tradition of swearing in new U.S. citizens. Seventy-seven people took their oaths during a naturalization ceremony at Monticello. The holiday is celebrated as the nations birthday, but it also was Malia Obamas 13th birthday. The presidents eldest daughter had to share her parents with hundreds of others as Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama invited troops and their families to attend a special barbecue and USO concert on the South Lawn. Speaking to U.S. troops, Obama told them, America is proud of all of you. You represent the latest in a long line of heroes who have served our country with honor, who have made incredible sacrifices to protect the freedoms that we all enjoy, the president said. Some of the Republicans hoping to replace Obama in the White House spent part of the day campaigning in states where presidential politics are as much a part of the holiday as fireworks and barbecues U.S. Rep. Michelle Bachmann, of Minnesota, marched in a parade in Clear Lake, Iowa. In New Hampshire, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman both marched in the Amherst parade. Businessman and GOP hopeful Herman Cain skipped the parades but threw out the first pitch at a minor league baseball game in Manchester, N.H. Aside from the politicking and the handshaking and the enthusiasm that our campaign is determined to generate in this state, were going to reflect on what it means to be an American, Huntsman told reporters. To share inalienable rights, to share our Constitutional privileges. There were also fireworks mishaps Monday, including at least one death in Oklahoma after fire officials said a 20-year-old man was struck in the throat by a rocket-type firecracker. In Kansas, fireworks were blamed for starting at least one house fire in the Topeka area.

7 missing after boating accident

By MARIANA MARTINEZ Associated Press TIJUANA, Mexico Mexican rescuers were scouring the Gulf of California for seven Americans whose fishing boat capsized two days ago, saying they were extending their search because the missing tourists could still be alive in the warm, calm waters. One American has been confirmed dead in the accident, which came after a flash storm upended the boat before dawn Sunday, spilling dozens of tourists and crew members into the water. The identity of the dead man was not released. By early Monday, 19 of the tourists and all 16 crew members had been picked up by the navy or other fishing boats after clinging to coolers, rescue rings and life vests for more than 16 hours. Mexican Navy, army and state officials met late Monday to discuss the search and there were reports they would call off rescue efforts. But instead they announced the search would continue over an extended area. Mexican navy Capt. Benjamin Pineda Gomez said that with the warm weather and water temperature in the Gulf of California, its still possible that the missing tourists are alive. A person who casts away can survive many days. That

TRASH TALK

sea is calm, he said. The U.S. Coast Guard offered Mexico help in the search and rescue operation and said it will continue its operations. The 115-foot (35-meter) vessel, the Erik, sank about 60 miles (100 kilometers) south of the port of San Felipe around 2:30 a.m. local time Sunday, the second day of a weeklong fishing trip the group had organized for several years each Independence Day holiday. The boat capsized less than two miles (three kilometers) from shore, but the navy extended its search 60 miles (100 kilometers) deeper into the gulf later Monday after searching the area by helicopter and airplane and finding nothing, Pineda said. Most of the 27 men on the fishing excursion are from Northern California and had made the trip before. Im beyond concerned, said Kristina Bronstein, who is engaged to missing tourist Mark Dorland of Twain Harte, California. She heard about the accident Monday morning from a trip organizers wife, who told her Dorland, 62, was one of the first people to fall into the water. He wasnt wearing a life vest. The couple are to be married next month.

In 1947, Larry Doby made his debut with the Cleveland Indians, becoming the first black player in the American League. In 1948, Britains National Health Service Act went into effect, providing governmentfinanced medical and dental care. In 1971, President Richard Nixon certified the 26th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which lowered the minimum voting age from 21 to 18. In 1975, Arthur Ashe became the first black man to win a Wimbledon singles title as he defeated Jimmy Connors. In 1984, the Supreme Court weakened the 70-year-old exclusionary rule, deciding that evidence seized in good faith with defective court warrants could be used against defendants in criminal trials. In 1991, a worldwide financial scandal erupted as regulators in eight countries shut down the Bank of Credit and Commerce International. Actress Mildred Dunnock died in Oak Bluffs, Mass., at age 90. Ten years ago: President George W. Bush named veteran prosecutor Robert Mueller (MUHL-ur) to take over the FBI. Five years ago: North Korea test-fired seven missiles into the Sea of Japan, including at least one believed capable of reaching the U.S. mainland.

STATE/LOCAL

COLUMBUS (AP) Ohios aging population has brought a surge in the number of handicapped parking tags given out in the state. The Columbus Dispatch reports the Bureau of Motor Vehicles last year issued more than 320,000 of the placards greater than the number issued in 2001 and 2002 combined. The tags allow vehicles to park in special spaces closer to businesses and facilities. Nearly 1.2 million Ohio residents, or 10 percent of the states population, held valid handicapped parking permits in 2010. A doctors prescription is needed for obtaining a placard. The Dispatch reports the tags are issued only for specific reasons laid out in state law, such as a motorist or passenger not being able to walk 200 feet without needing to rest.

At the end of the day you look yourself in the mirror and you say to yourself, Did I do what was right for families and for children? If I paid a political price, so what?

Loose mountain lion reported in northeast Ohio

Organ donations down, yet donor SW OH counties charge jail fees, had drawn lawsuit sign-ups rise CINCINNATI (AP) there is worth going after, them, sheriffs spokesman
DAYTON (AP) More Ohioans are registering as organ donors, while donations are down in the state this year. Organ procurement agency Life Connection of Ohio says 2011 figures show nearly 58 percent of Ohio motorists have declared themselves organ donors on their driver licenses. Thats up from less than 48 percent in 2002. Meanwhile, the Dayton Daily News reports 13 people have donated organs in Ohio through June 1 of this year, Two southwest Ohio counties that had been sued in federal court over jail reception fees have resumed making inmates pay something for their stays, to help with jail costs. But this time, fees are being charged only to inmates who have been convicted, not those merely awaiting trial. The sheriffs office in suburban Butler County began charging convicts a $20 booking fee on Friday, the Cincinnati Enquirer reported Monday. Any revenue stream out Chief Deputy Anthony Dwyer told the newspaper. Operating the jail is about a $5 million annual expense for Butler County, which has laid off nearly 100 sheriffs office employees during the last two years. Hamilton County, which includes Cincinnati, has been charging convicted inmates $40 each since 2008 to help offset the Independently Owned and Operated costs of housing Steve Barnett said. According to county financial data, the program has raised close to $200,000 per year. Earlier inmate reception fee programs in Hamilton and Butler counties became the target of federal lawsuits more than a decade ago, and the counties were ordered to reimburse some of the money as part of settlements.

CANTON (AP) Authorities in northeast Ohio are searching for a loose mountain lion. Police in Canton say sightings of the animal were reported Monday in Canton and nearby Louisville. A dispatcher told The Associated Press early Tuesday that police believe the mountain lion escaped from an exotic animal farm in the area. Police Sgt. Les Marino tells The Repository newspaper of Canton that residents should be cautious and call 911 if they see the big cat. He says police are being helped in the search by sheriffs deputies, county park rangers and state troopers using a Highway Patrol helicopter.

They do what they think they need to do to right the ship, and theyre not as warm and fuzzy as probably a lot of people would like, said Parizek, 49, who works for a New York investment fund. I think thats the profile of the kind of person you need to make really tough, fundamental structural change. Kasich exudes confidence when he enters a room, even being so bold as to deliver his State of the State address without a script. His style can lend itself to verbal gaffes. At Ohio Memory Day, a day of advocacy for people with Alzheimers disease, he told the crowd he drew a blank trying to write his remarks. He called a police officer who once pulled him over an idiot in front of a gathering of Ohio EPA workers. Kasich later apologized. George Tucker, an AFLCIO union leader for the Toledo region, interprets such misstatements by Kasich as a disregard for other people. He said the governor is just out of touch. I dont think he has any feelings or sympathy for working people, Tucker said. He doesnt have to look people in the eye who are being put out of their jobs like we do and tell them, Youre not going to get that assistance you were counting on. Kasich, known in Congress for fighting for a balanced budget, ran for president in 2000 but dropped out before the Republican primary. His work as a speaker, best-selling author of books on his conservative philosophies, former Fox News commentator and managing director at since-failed investment bank Lehman Brothers helped make him a millionaire so he says hes not worried about being a one-term governor. He says hes trying to fix Ohios economy and cant be distracted by lousy poll numbers, Statehouse protests and critics who parse his every word. By clashing with wellfunded unions and special interests such as nursing homes and casinos, he says he never expected to be liked. In fact, his

is almost a holy mission. Do you have any idea the pounding Ive taken in six months? he asked a group of reporters and Cabinet directors at a Friday event. I kind of like it, I think it accrues to my benefit not in this world, but by doing the right thing, I get points, OK? He started taking on reporters even before he took office denying them records and attempting to bar them from his ceremonial inauguration. After he was criticized, he went beyond changing his mind to hosting the largest midnight swearing-in anyone could remember with more than 150 onlookers and his entire Cabinet. Two months later, Kasich tried to bar recording equipment at the medias technical briefing on his budget, hoping to focus attention on a public budget unveiling that evening that starred Ohios budget as Apples latest iPad and Kasich as Steve Jobs. Confronted again, Kasich relented but not before the political blogosphere lit up with allegations that he was becoming a serial obstructionist. Kasich has often answered his critics bloggers, unions, Ohio Democrats and latenight comedians with a well-timed appearance on Fox News, where he used to host From the Heartland with John Kasich, or upbeat Twitter posts like this one from Wednesday: Proud of my partners in the legislature. Together, we closed an $8 billion budget gap and cut taxes! With the Ohio vote so closely divided between the parties, the question will be whether Kasich can ultimately win over the state with his bold approach. Right now, it seems for every Ohioan who appreciates what hes attempting, there is another who disagrees, like Democrat John Hisey, a 60-year-old retired manufacturing worker from Newark. Criticizing Kasich and his fellow Republicans, Hisey said the governor is bad for Ohio.

Anti-tax diehard looms in spending showdown

By CHARLES BABINGTON Associated Press WASHINGTON Without a bipartisan agreement this summer to reduce the federal deficit and raise the debt limit, the economy could suffer a horrendous blow, leaders of both parties say. If that happens, some will point fingers at a bearded, slightly disheveled man whos barely known outside political circles in Washington. For two decades, Grover Norquist has been the driving force in pushing the Republican Party toward an ever-more rigid position of opposing any tax increase, of any kind, at any time. He has been so successful that some GOP officials fear theyve let Norquist squeeze them into a corner where theyll be unable to declare victory even if they win the great majority of their budget demands in negotiations with congressional Democrats and President Barack Obama. Democrats, meanwhile, use Norquist to paint the GOP as an unreasonable party that kowtows to billionaires at the expense of middle-class Americans. Obama is insisting that even if a deficit-reduction accord relies overwhelmingly on spending cuts, it also must By ALAN FRAM Associated Press have some revenue increases. Democrats say they should start with eliminating some not-so-popular tax breaks that Norquist and his allies stoutly defend. Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell has decided to walk out on the same limb as Grover Norquist, Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., told reporters last week. It seems leader McConnell is willing to tank the economy for the sake of protecting tax breaks for oil companies and corporate jets. Obama didnt name Norquist in his feisty news conference Wednesday, but he cited the same tax breaks. Ive said to some of the Republican leaders: You go talk to your constituents, the Republican constituents, and ask them, are they willing to compromise their kids safety so that some corporate-jet owner continues to get a tax break? Obama said. Republican lawmakers scoff at the notion that killing a $3 billion tax break for small jets would make a dent in the $14 trillion debt. But they have complicated their ability to parry the Democrats on such matters by signing the famous anti-tax pledge of Americans for Tax Reform, which Norquist heads. All but a handful of House and Senate Republicans have

New air traffic control system at crossroads

GOP uses budget, other tools to sap financial law

WASHINGTON President Barack Obamas financial overhaul law is nearly a year old. For congressional Republicans, the fight to weaken it is just starting. Wary of trying to repeal the entire statute and being portrayed as Wall Streets protectors banks rank among the countrys least popular institutions GOP lawmakers are trying to nibble away at the behemoth measure. Its a crusade theyve waged all year, despite lacking the White House and Senate control they need to prevail. Days ago, one Republicanrun House committee approved bills diluting parts of the law requiring reports on corporate salaries and exempting some investment advisers from registering with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Another House panel voted to slice $200 million from Obamas $1.4 billion budget request for the SEC, which has a major enforcement role. Meanwhile, Senate Republicans are continuing a procedural blockade that has By ADAM GOLDMAN and MATT APUZZO Associated Press helped prevent Obama from putting Elizabeth Warren or anyone else in charge of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which opens its doors in two weeks. The law hurts the formation of capital, the cost of capital and access to capital, and you cant have capitalism without capital, said Rep. Jeb Hensarling, R-Texas, a leader of the House Financial Services Committee. So Republicans in the House will be examining each and every one of the 2,000-plus pages of the law, which he called a job creators nightmare. Confident that Obama and the Democratic-controlled Senate can prevent the House from doing major damage, Democrats view the Republican drive as a political exercise for now. Its mostly setting a marker for the election. And it helps with their campaign contributions, said Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., who chaired the Financial Services Committee last year and was a chief author of the law. But it also tells people in the financial community that if they win the next election, theyll be able to undo it all. their names linked to the bin Laden operation. The Associated Press has agreed to the CIAs request not to publish his full name and withhold certain details so that he would not become a target for retribution. Call him John, his middle name. John was among the hundreds of people who poured into CIAs Counterterrorism Center after the Sept. 11 attacks, bringing fresh eyes and energy to the fight. He had been a standout in the agencys Russian and Balkan departments. When Vladimir Putin was coming to power in Russia, for instance, John pulled together details overlooked by others and wrote what some colleagues considered the definitive profile of Putin. He challenged some of the agencys conventional wisdom about Putins KGB background and painted a much fuller portrait of the man who would come to dominate Russian politics. That ability to spot the importance of seemingly insignificant details, to weave disparate strands of information into a meaningful story, gave him a particular knack for hunting terrorists. From 2003, when he joined the counterterrorism center, through 2005, John was one of the driving forces behind the most successful string of counterterrorism captures in the fight against terrorism: Abu Zubaydah, Abd al-Nashiri,

signed it. By doing so, they vow to oppose any effort to increase marginal income tax rates and any net reduction or elimination of deductions and credits, unless matched dollar for dollar by further reducing tax rates. In other words, even a temporary tax cut cannot be undone. Even a tax break that seems to have lost its purpose, when economic conditions change, cannot be touched unless it is offset elsewhere. Some Senate Republicans have grown weary of Norquists strict interpretation of the pledge, and a minirevolt occurred in mid-June. Thirty-four of the Senates 47 Republicans voted to end a tax break for ethanol production, which has come under political fire in recent years. Norquist strongly opposed the move, and denounced its leader, conservative Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla. Coburn, who says some revenue increases must join deep spending cuts to reduce the deficit, claimed a turning point. Youve got 34 Republicans that say theyre willing to end this, regardless of what Grover says, he told reporters. Thats 34 Republicans that say this is more important than a signed pledge to Norquists group.

CIA analyst spent 10 years hunting Osama bin Laden

WASHINGTON After Navy SEALs killed Osama bin Laden, the White House released a photo of President Barack Obama and his Cabinet inside the Situation Room, watching the daring raid unfold. Hidden from view, standing just outside the frame of that now-famous photograph was a career CIA analyst. In the hunt for the worlds most-wanted terrorist, there may have been no one more important. His job for nearly a decade was finding the alQaida leader. The analyst was the first to put in writing last summer that the CIA might have a legitimate lead on finding bin Laden. He oversaw the collection of clues that led the agency to a fortified compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. His was among the most confident voices telling Obama that bin Laden was probably behind those walls. The CIA will not permit him to speak with reporters. But interviews with former and current U.S. intelligence officials reveal a story of quiet persistence and continuity that led to the greatest counterterrorism success in the history of the CIA. Nearly all the officials insisted on anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to reporters or because they did not want

The financial industry leans Republican in its campaign contributions but not overwhelmingly. Sixtyone percent of the $9 million that commercial banks gave federal candidates for the 2010 elections went to Republicans, while 54 percent of the securities and investment industrys $9 million went to Democrats, according to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics. Democrats are using the GOP drive for their own fundraising. In one email sent last week under Franks name soliciting money for House candidates, the party wrote that Republicans want to bring back the days of unrestrained excess, deception and de-regulation of Wall Street. The mailing called it payback to their big contributors in the financial services industry. Obama signed the banking and consumer protection measure last July 21, a keystone achievement that responded to the biggest financial crisis and most severe recession since the 1930s. It passed Congress with solid Democratic support and near-uniform GOP opposition. Khalid Sheik Mohammed, Ramzi bin Alshib, Hambali and Faraj al-Libi. But there was no greater prize than finding bin Laden. Bin Laden had slipped away from U.S. forces in the Afghan mountains of Tora Bora in 2001, and the CIA believed he had taken shelter in the lawless tribal areas of Pakistan. In 2006, the agency mounted Operation Cannonball, an effort to establish bases in the tribal regions and find bin Laden. Even with all its money and resources, the CIA could not locate its prime target. By then, the agency was on its third director since Sept. 11, 2001. John had outlasted many of his direct supervisors who retired or went on to other jobs. The CIA doesnt like to keep its people in one spot for too long. They become jaded. They start missing things. John didnt want to leave. Hed always been persistent. In college, he walked on to a Division I basketball team and hustled his way into a rotation full of scholarship players. The CIA offered to promote him and move him somewhere else. John wanted to keep the bin Laden file. He examined and reexamined every aspect of bin Ladens life. How did he live while hiding in Sudan? With whom did he surround himself while living in Kandahar, Afghanistan? What would a bin Laden hideout look like today?

A few weeks ago, I was speaking to the father of one of my patients. He was concerned with his 6-year-old sons frequent lies and he was unsure of how to deal with it. He told me, Its not even logical. I can actually see him do something and he will still look right at me and deny it! I told him that to his son, it would be completely logical. If his goal is to get out of being punished, the only chance he would have is to lie about it. The problem is, telling the truth isnt logical. The truth isnt the logical thing to do, it is the right thing to do. We tell the truth because it makes us feel better inside. We tell the truth because telling a lie is like a heavy weight that you carry around on your soul. We tell the truth because no matter who you fool with your lies, you will never fool yourself. We tell the truth because the freedom of the truth will

I dont want my son to tell the truth because I might catch him in a lie. I want him to tell the truth because I might not catch him. I want my son to understand that there is no punishment that I could give him that is worse than the loss of his self-respect. I want him to know that

accepting the consequences of his actions and knowing that he is a person of honor is the best reward I can give him. I have told my son from the time he was very little to Do the right thing, not the fun thing. What I want him to understand is that he will be faced throughout his life with options and I will not always be there to guide him. It is not always fun to do the right thing. It is not always easy. That is why they call it strength of character. I know this is pretty heavy stuff for a child to grasp and I know my son has lapses just like every other person. My hope is that by consistently emphasizing this with him, he will understand how important this is. If I can raise him to always try to do the right thing and to take responsibility when he does the wrong thing, it is the best I can hope for. It is the best any of us can hope for.

walking three and whiffing 13. However, Hallfeldt (1-0), using a mix of fastball and offspeed stuff, was even better, tossing a 1-hitter in his 101pitch outing (72 strikes), walking three and fanning 11. With runs at a premium, Crestview scored in the top of the first on typical smallball fashion: a leadoff walk to Rolsten, consecutive stolen bases and an error on the latter, putting them up 1-0. The Wildcats (10-5) tied it in the second. With one out, Justin Rode walked and swiped second. Kyle Anspach walked. An out hence, Jeff Schleeter sliced a hit to right to get Rode home and put runners on the corners. Schleeter swiped second but the next batter fanned. After striking out the side in the Knight second, the Knights went up 2-1 in the third, again on small-ball. With one gone, Blake Meyer walked and advanced on a passed ball. An out later, Brown walked; a wild pitch put runners on the corners. Holden lined a 3-2 single to right to get Meyer in and again put runners on the corners. Holden stole second. However, Kortokrax induced a pop-up to leave the damage at 2-1. Hallfeldt sent down the next 12 batters. The Knights (9-9-1) got a leadoff infield single by Jake Wortman to start the fifth. Meyer sacrificed him to second and a Rolsten bounceout put him at third. However, he was left stranded. Crestview got a 2-out baserunner in the seventh; an error on a ball hit by Wortman; but left him on. Weve been tearing it up offensively until the last two games; for some reason, we stopped hitting, Jefferson coach Mark Jettinghoff said. Drew pitched a great game and we were solid enough defensively. We just couldnt hit the last two nights. We were looking to find our upthe-middle defense starting the summer we lost our shortstop and second baseman to graduation and we got some younger kids some innings pitching. The Wildcats threatened in the home seventh. With one out, Rode was hit by a pitch and Anspach walked, with Zavier Buzard pinch-running at second. However, Hallfeldt induced a pair of pop-ups to end the game. Jared established his fastball early and then got his breaking ball going, Crestview coach Matt Perkins noted. Kortokrax was unbelievable, too; he has a great arm. This was just a great game to watch. We got just enough offense. Kalida didnt quite get the pitching performance they had in game 1 of the PauldingPutnam County ACME sectional tournament. The Wildcats made up for what they didnt get on the mound at the plate. Kalida pounded out 11 hits as they defeated Ottawa-Glandorf 10-4 in the winners-bracket semifinals of the tournament. The win sends the Wildcats (114) to the championship game tonight against Columbus Grove (8-10) at Miller City. The winner advances to the district tournament at Lima Central Catholic. After riding the arm of Jordan Laudick in the sectional opener, the Wildcats went with Jared Zeller Sunday. Zeller didnt enjoy that kind of success but was able to leave with a lead as the Wildcat bats picked up the slack. After a scoreless first inning, the Wildcats struck for three runs in the second inning with two outs. With one out, Eric Kahle reached on an error at third base and stole second. Ben Von der Embse then dropped a single into short left as Kahle had to hold up to see if the ball was caught. With Zeller at bat, Kahle was caught trying to steal third base for the second out as Von der Embse took second. Zeller gave the Wildcats two base runners as he walked and Neil Recker put them on the scoreboard with a double down the left-field line. A double over the left fielders head by Paul Utendorf scored two runs, giving the Wildcats a 3-0 lead. Getting the lead was big for us, Kalida coach Joel Rampe said. We need to get the lead. The mentality of our team changes when we get the lead and our pitchers just seem to settle in and come through pretty nice once we get the lead. Kalida had a 3-0 lead going to the bottom of the third when O-G scored a run. Zeller retired the first seven O-G batters he faced before he walked opposing pitcher Tyson Yungmann. Zeller went on to load the bases as Logan Borgelt and Matt Stechschulte walked to load the bases before Drew Schierloh hit a slow roller down the third-base line to score a run before Zeller regrouped to get a strikeout and a fly ball to left to end the threat. Kalida answered the O-G rally with two runs in the top of the fourth inning. With one out, Nate Kortokrax walked before doubles by Jordan Ellerbrock and Nathan Jorrey scored two runs to make it a 5-1 game. Seven of our first eight runs all came with two outs, Rampe said. We had a bunch of clutch hitting. Jordan Ellerbrock had some big hits, Nate had a good 2-out double, Paul hit the ball well. We spread it out again today. O-G answered in the bottom of the inning as Tyler Ellerbrock opened the inning with a walk. After he took second on a groundout, a pair of wild pitches allowed him to score. Once again, the Wildcats answered back as they scored three runs in the fifth inning. With one out in the Kalida fifth, Von der Embse singled to right and took second on an error. After the second out, Recker walked before Utendorf lined a double off the right-field wall to score two runs, making it a 7-2 game. A single to left by Kortokrax gave Kalida an 8-2.

SPORTS

After throwing a lot of pitches in four innings, Kalida made a pitching change, bringing in Utendorf. The Titans nearly rallied as Matt Stechschulte singled, stole second and moved to third on a wild pitch before scoring on an error. The Titans loaded the bases after an out as Jake Hashbarger walked, Tyler Zender was hit by a pitch and Ellerbrock singled. A popup to second base and a strikeout ended the threat. O-G added a run in the sixth as Yungmann doubled to start the inning and scored on two straight groundouts. Leading 8-4 going to the seventh, Kalida added two runs as Kortokrax had a 2-run double that scored pinch-runner Kehres and Utendorf. In the bottom of the inning Utendorf gave up a 2-out single to Matt Samuelson before getting the final out. Zeller picked up the win for Kalida as he went four innings, allowing two runs on two hits with five strikeouts and four walks. Utendorf finished the game, allowing two runs on five hits with two strikeouts and with a walk and hit batter. Pitching-wise, I dont know how you explain Jared. Hed get up in the count, then let them back in it and then finish it off. He had five strikeouts in the four innings, Rampe said. You cant complain about that. He had a nice game. Utendorf led Kalida at the plate with two doubles, a single and four RBIs. Kortokrax, Ellerbrock and Von der Embse all had two hits. Yungmann took the loss for O-G as he went the distance in allowing 10 runs on 11 hits. Schierloh and Yungmann both had two hits for the Titans. We didnt play well, O-G coach Ryan Zender said. That is a good team and they came up with the clutch hit when they had runners on base.

Tomorrows Horoscope
By Bernice Bede Osol
Wednesday, July 6, 2011 Several social contacts could play important roles in your affairs in the year ahead. Depending on the issues, decide between which ones would be a big help to you business-wise and which ones will help enhance your popularity. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Because youre both curious and observant, there isnt too much thatll escape your attention, including things everybody else has missed. Youll share your insights with others. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Keep your wits about you at all times, especially when engaged with financial or commercial matters. You should be able to take what you learn and improvise on it profitably. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You have a talent that sometimes enables you to juggle several projects simultaneously. What baffles others, however, is your ability to do an equally good job on each task. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If you hope to fulfill an ambitious objective, keep all the essentials to yourself. The fewer people who interfere, the easier it will be for you to do a good job completing all the details. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -In order to save a bit of money, you need to be able to stay on budget. It behooves you not to go shopping with a good friend who always gives their credit cards a good workout. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- One of your greatest gifts is being able to use your mental agility to meet and overcome complicated challenges and obstacles. Youre likely to use it quite a bit at this juncture. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- When dealing with people under most conditions, it isnt wise to offer unsolicited advice. At this point however, if you have a suggestion that could help a confused friend, speak up. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -As long as all of the partners involved are making an equal contribution, joint ventures have a better than usual chance of working out quite well at this time. Speedy results are probable. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -There is a good chance that you will be required to decide an issue where all of the alternatives appear to be of equal value. Look favorably upon options that have worked in the past. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- The perfect opportunity to put down someone who hasnt treated you too kindly lately might pop up at last. Regardless of how great the temptation is to do so, be above it all. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -Taking a bit of a recreational break when possible could prove to be valuable to you and your work. The more relaxed you are, the better you will be able to perform. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -Two huge matters that you left hanging and are very anxious to wrap up will at last approach the final stages. Once you finish what youve been working on, go ahead and get em done, son.

Casey Anthony jury deliberations to resume

By KYLE HIGHTOWER Associated Press ORLANDO, Fla. Jurors were to resume deliberations today in the murder trial of Casey Anthony a day after spending about six hours dissecting it following a rebuttal summation by the prosecution. Judge Belvin Perry separated the main jury of seven women and five men from five alternates and sent them into the deliberation room just after noon Monday. They did not return a verdict by the time the judge released them for the evening just after 6 p.m. The alternates are being sequestered in a separate part of the Orlando courthouse. Prosecutors argued Monday morning the 25-yearold killed her 2-year-old daughter Caylee in June 2008 because the toddler interrupted her carefree partying and love life. The jury received the more than 400 pieces of evidence in the jury room that have been by both sides in the case since the trial began in late May. But jurors will be brought into open court should they request to view any of the video evidence, a court official said. Equipment for video viewing is not available in the deliberation room. The jury has the ability to send questions to Judge Perry via the court deputies, but had yet to do so. In their rebuttal closing argument, the prosecution said the defenses assertion that Caylees death was an accident made no sense. Anthonys attorneys say the girl drowned in the familys pool. They have said Anthony panicked and that her father, a former police officer, decided to make the death look like a homicide by placing duct tape over the childs mouth and dumping the body in some nearby woods. George Anthony has denied that. Prosecutor Jeff Ashton told the jurors no one makes an innocent accident look like murder. Thats absurd. Nothing has been presented to you to make that any less absurd, Ashton said. He also spent significant time reminding jurors about forensic evidence that he said links Anthony to her daughters death, including the smell and chemical signature of decomposition in her car. Anthony is charged with first-degree murder and six other charges. If convicted of first-degree murder, she could be sentenced to death or life in prison. The jury was chosen from the Tampa Bay area because of pretrial media coverage and have been sequestered in an Orlando hotel. They listened to 33 days of testimony and another two days of closing arguments. Lead prosecutor Linda Drane Burdick followed Ashton, telling the jurors that prosecutors presented every piece of evidence they promised in May during opening statements. Without saying it, she was pointing out that defense attorneys never presented direct evidence backing up their contentions that the child drowned. She then hammered on the lies Anthony, then 22, told from June 16, 2008, when her daughter was last seen, and a month later when sheriffs investigators were notified. Those include the single mother telling her parents she couldnt produce Caylee because the girl was with a nanny named Zanny a woman who doesnt exist; that she and her daughter were spending time in Jacksonville, Fla., with a rich boyfriend who doesnt exist; and that Zanny had been hospitalized after an out-of-town traffic crash and that they were spending time with her. Responses to grief are as varied as the day is long, but responses to guilt are oh, so predictable, Drane Burdick said. What do guilty people do? They lie. They avoid. They run. They mislead, not just to their family, but the police. They divert attention

away from themselves and they act like nothing is wrong. Thats why you heard about what happened in those 31 days. Burdick concluded the states case by showing the jury two side-by-side images. One showed Casey Anthony smiling and partying in a nightclub during the month Caylee was missing. The other was of the tattoo which meant beautiful life she got a day before her family and law enforcement first learned of the childs disappearance. At the end of this case, all you have to ask yourself is whose life was better without Caylee? Burdick asked. This is your answer. Anthony sat stone faced during much of the prosecutors arguments, but occasionally shook her head in disagreement and spoke under her breath. Defense attorneys claimed Anthonys lies and erratic behavior were brought on by her grief over her dead child and the sexual abuse she suffered as a child from her father.
