Bulletin on Tuesday evening the storm is developing over such a wide area, it is highly unlikely that it will miss Van Wert County (or other counties inline with the storms) completely. Heavy rains should be expected but, much like the storm in June 2012, it is the winds that will cause the most damage. Damage last year was increased because of the full foliage on the trees, heightening See , page 10 Jefferson Middle School Principal Terry Moreo has announced his retirement. Moreo has been with the district since 1984. (Delphos Herald/Nancy Spencer)

When I started at the middle school, my oldest was in the eighth grade, he said. It was neat for me but I dont know how much fun it was for her. Moreos philosophies are simple: Make a personal connection with the staff and students and if you are successful with that connection, all things are possible. You have to find the good in every child. Theres bad in all of us. You need to find the good and build on it, he said. Moreo said he hopes to leave behind a legacy of treating each child with dignity, leaving the middle school with self-discipline and that the tradition follows them through life. Moreo has worn many hats while at the city schools, including special-education officer. He was responsible for assessing students needs, formulating Individual Education Plans for those who needed it and making them successful alongside their peers.

SALT LAKE CITY An Ohio man linked to the hacker collective Anonymous has reversed course to plead guilty to charges that he breached police-agency websites, under an agreement with the federal government that calls for prison time and nearly $230,000 in restitution. Court documents filed April 15 show 22-year-old John Anthony Borell III has agreed to plead guilty to five charges related to the hacking of law enforcement web-
sites in Utah, California, New York and Missouri. The Toledo, Ohio, man would receive three years in prison and have to pay restitution under the agreement, which still needs court approval. Borell is scheduled to appear before a judge at an Aug. 21 hearing for approval of the plea deal, and sentencing. A spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorneys Office in Utah declined to comment on the agreement. Messages left with Borells attorney Jamie Zenger were not immediately returned Tuesday. As part of the deal, Borell would admit to hacking into the websites for Salt Lake City police; the Utah Chiefs of Police Association; police in Syracuse, N.Y.; the city of Springfield, Mo.; and the Los Angeles County Canine Police Association. He also would admit to hacking into a local community website in Illinois called Pendleton Underground. The attacks all occurred between September 2011 and February 2012. Borell was arrested in March of that year after he took credit for taking down the websites on his Twitter account.
POLICE REPORT
At 7:26 p.m. on Monday, Delphos Police were called to the 900 block of Lima Avenue in reference to a burglary complaint at a residence in that area. Upon officers arrival, the victim showed officers damage to several doors at the residence where attempts were made to gain entry. The victim stated that nothing appeared to be missing from inside the residence. At 3:53 p.m. on Monday, Delphos Police received a call to the 300 block of North Jefferson Street in reference to a subject wanting to harm himself at that location. A short time later, officers arrived on scene and attempted to make contact with Glenn Feathers, 50, of Delphos, who was locked inside his residence. After several attempts to speak with Feathers both through the locked door and over the telephone, Feathers continued to threaten harm to himself. Feathers Officers used a battering ram to gain entrance into the locked residence at which time Feathers continued to fail to comply with officers and their commands. After several minutes, Feathers actions towards officers resulted in them using a Taser on him to gain control. Feathers was transported to a facility in Lima for evaluation. The case was presented to the Van Wert Municipal Court Prosecutors Office, at which time charges of obstructing official business were approved.

Heart and Vascular Center at St. Ritas receives Chest Pain Center accreditation with PCI
Information submitted LIMA The Henry & Beverly Hawk Heart & Vascular Center at St. Ritas Medical Center recently received full accreditation with PCI from the Society of Cardiovascular Patient Care. Heart attacks are the leading cause of death in the United States, with 600,000 people dying annually of heart disease. More than five million Americans visit hospitals each year with chest pain. SCPCs goal is to significantly reduce the mortality rate of these patients by teaching the public to recognize and react to the early symptoms of a possible heart attack, reduce the time that it takes to receive treatment, and increase the accuracy and effectiveness of treatment. The Accredited Chest Pain Centers protocol-driven and systematic approach to patient management allows physicians to reduce time to treatment during the critical early stages of a heart attack, when treatments are most effective, and to better monitor patients when it is not clear whether or not they are having a coronary event. Such observation helps ensure that patients are neither sent home too early nor needlessly admitted. With the increase in chest pain centers came the need to establish standards designed to improve the consistency and quality of care provided to patients. SCPCs accreditation process ensures that centers meet or exceed quality-of-care measures in acute cardiac medicine. The Accredited Chest Pain Center at St. Ritas has demonstrated its expertise and commitment to quality patient care by meeting or exceeding a wide set of stringent criteria and undergoing an onsite review by a team of SPCPs accreditation review specialists. Key areas in which an Accredited Chest Pain Center must demonstrate expertise include the following:
Integrating the emergency department with the local emergency medical system Assessing, diagnosing, and treating patients quickly Effectively treating patients with low risk for acute coronary syndrome and no assignable cause for their symptoms Continually seeking to improve processes and procedures Ensuring the competence and training of Accredited Chest Pain Center personnel Maintaining organizational structure and commitment Having a functional design that promotes optimal patient care Supporting community outreach programs that educate the public to promptly seek medical care if they display symptoms of a possible heart attack.

June 13 Tyler Dickrede Janet Feathers Kyrsten Slygh Tom Wilmoth Collin Heitmeyer The bench wagon goes from place to place, wherever church is being held. This is the bench wagon in Lovinas district. The benches are stored in the wagon along with a lost n found box and a few other items to help hold services smoothly. (Submitted photo) BY LOVINA EICHER It is Thursday morning and the children are all sleeping in a little longer. Its their first day of not having to go to school for the summer. Yesterday, daughter Susan and I attended the school picnic. After the awards were presented to the children, everyone moved outside to do the various activities planned for the last day of school. A picnic lunch was served to everyone and then the children enjoyed the Slip and Slide on the hill. It was chilly in the morning but by lunchtime it was warmer and the water on the slide cooled everyone off. It was nice to take a break since the last few weeks have been busy cleaning and preparing for church services. Verena has now completed the eighth grade and is finished with her school years. We attended her graduation on Monday evening. This fall, Benjamin, 13, will be an eighth-grader. Loretta, 12, will be in seventh grade, Joseph, 10, will be in middle school as a fifth-grader, Lovina will be in third and Kevin, 7, will be in second grade. Meanwhile, we put a lot of rhubarbs into juice this week. That will make a lot of good drinking during the summer months. It seems to quench your thirst on those hot summer days. Today, I want to cut out my suit for nephew Noahs wedding, which is next Tuesday already. Daughter Elizabeth has hers cut out so I might need to help her with hers since shes working at the factory. Elizabeth and Timothy will be tablewaiters at the wedding. I have to help cook on Saturday and I will also go help bake pies for the wedding. On Sunday morning, it was nice and sunny for our church services. By 9 a.m., when the services started, our basement was filled with people from our church district as well as the many guests from other church districts. I dont remember our basement ever being this filled with people for church services. There were even a few families missing from our own district. We appreciated the many friends and relatives coming in honor of our daughters Elizabeth and Susan, and Susans friend Mose, starting instructions for baptism. What an encouragement to them to see so much support. Lord willing they will be baptized this fall after following instruction every two weeks until then. Our church lunch menu consisted of homemade wheat and white bread (which the women from our church baked 50 loaves for me), butter, strawberry jam, freezer pickles, dill pickles, red beets, hot peppers, peanut butter spread, cheese, summer sausage, egg salad, coffee and tea, along with a variety of cookies of which quite a few hundred were also brought in. Sister Emma made the many gallons of iced tea from the spearmint and peppermint tea leaves out of her garden. It was delicious and took a lot of work off my hands to have this all prepared. We had a good-sized crowd back for supper and our menu was potluck potato casserole, grilled hot dog sandwiches, lettuce salad, homemade bread, egg salad, pickles, hot peppers, jello cake, chocolate cake and chocolate pie, coffee and iced tea. Church services will be held here again on June 16. Gods blessings to all. Ill share my potluck potato recipe POTLUCK POTATO CASSEROLE 2 pounds potatoes, peeled (4 cups) 1/2 cup melted butter 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper 1/2 cup chopped onion 1 can cream of mushroom soup 1 pint sour cream 2 cups diced Velveeta Cheese 2 cups crushed corn flakes 1/4 cup melted butter Cut up potatoes and cook until almost tender. Add 1 /2 cup butter, salt, pepper, onion, soup, sour cream and cheese. Blend thoroughly. Pour into greased 5 quart casserole dish. Top with corn flakes mixed with 1 /4 cup butter.

wearing these colors again and have a Wahoo on, McDonald said before the game. You never know where baseball is going to take you. I didnt think I was going to get a chance to wear it again as a player. With shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera on the DL with a right quadriceps strain and expected to be out another 2-4 weeks,
the Indians got McDonald from Pittsburgh in a trade Monday for a player to be named or cash considerations. McDonald was a 12th-round pick by the Indians in the 1996 draft and made his major-league debut in 1999. He played for Toronto, Detroit, Arizona and Pittsburgh since leaving Cleveland after the 2004 season. Pittsburgh recalled McDonald from a rehab assignment at Triple-A Indianapolis and activated him from the 15-day DL before sending him to Cleveland. The infielder had been on the DL since May 15 with lower back and right elbow inflammation. He played in 16 games for the Pirates and was only 2-for-31 (.065). He has hit .237 in 970 career games before Tuesday. McDonald said he hurt his back taking extra swings but is healthy now. He added the arm feels good, too. To make room on its 25-man roster, Cleveland optioned infielder Juan Diaz to Triple-A Columbus. The Indians initially made room on their 40-man roster Monday by moving right-hander Brett Myers to the 60-day DL. Myers has been on the DL since April 20 with tendinitis and a mild ligament sprain in his right elbow. There are no current players who were also with the Indians when McDonald was last there. But Cleveland bench coach Sandy Alomar Jr. was one of his teammates. As for his role, McDonald can play second base, shortstop or third.
By DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press ARDMORE, Pa. The photo of Ben Hogan hitting his 1-iron into the 18th green at Merion in the 1950 U.S. Open is among the most famous in golf history, capturing the pure swing of one of the greatest players when the pressure of a major championship was at its peak. Instead of marveling at the swing, Tiger Woods thought more about the results. That was to get into a playoff, Woods said Tuesday, sounding more like a golf historian than the No. 1 player in the game. Got about 40 feet and still had some work to do. Its a great photo. But it would have been an all right photo if he didnt win. He still had to go out and win it the next day. Hogan managed to lag the long putt to about 4 feet and quickly knocked that in for his par to join a 3-way playoff, which he won the next day over Lloyd Mangrum and Tom Fazio. Of his four U.S. Open titles, that meant the most to Hogan because he proved he could win just 16 months after a horrific car accident that nearly killed him. On battered legs, Hogan had to play the 36-hole final, followed by the 18-hole playoff. Knowing the fact that he went through the accident and then came out here and played 36 and 18, thats awfully impressive, Woods said. In some small way, Woods can relate. Five years ago, Woods tried to play the U.S. Open with the ligaments shredded in his left knee and a double stress fracture in his lower left leg. The USGA published a book called Great Moments of the U.S. Open and the
photo it selected for the cover showed Woods arching his back and pumping his fists after making a 12-foot birdie putt on the 72nd hole at Torrey Pines to get into a playoff. It wouldnt have been much of a photo if he missed. Woods had to go 91 holes that week. He had to make another birdie on the 18th hole of the playoff to go extra holes before finally beating Rocco Mediate. I think there was a lot of people pulling for Tiger, said Rory McIlroy, who was 19 at the time, a rookie on the European Tour who failed to qualify for the U.S. Open. He was playing on a broken leg pretty much, so I was definitely pulling for Tiger. It was probably one of the best performances golf has ever seen, if not sport in general. Hard as it might have been to believe that day, it also was the last major Woods won. He had one more chance at a major after his season-ending knee surgery, losing a 2-shot lead to Y.E. Yang in the 2009 PGA Championship. After two darks years brought on by the collapse of his marriage and more injuries to his left leg, he had at least a share of the 36-hole lead in two majors last year and an outside shot at the Masters in April going into the final round. Majors dont come as easily as they once seemed to for Woods, though he never looked at them that way. It wasnt ever easy, he explained. I felt it was still difficult because the major of the majors, three of the four always rotated. It was always on a new site each and every year. Augusta was the only one you could rely on from past experiences. A lot of majors that I won were on either the first or

Kirk NationaLease wins Exceptional Service award
Information submitted Kirk NationaLease, with a facility located at 203 Hunt Street, Delphos, OH, has been awarded the Exceptional Service Award by its peers in the NationaLease System. During the week of May 14-17, Randy Johnston, director of maintenance, and John Wearly, regional manager, from Kirk NationaLease, attended the NationaLease Spring Maintenance Meeting in Chicago, IL. At this meeting, Randy Johnston had the pleasure of accepting the Exceptional Service award, on behalf of Kirk NationaLease at the awards dinner held on May 16. The maintenance managers of the individual NationaLease affiliates vote on the awards for exceptional reciprocal service prior to this meeting. These managers are the people that use the different members for emergency repairs, and know who provides the best service. It allows the affiliates to show appreciation to the companies that consistently go above and beyond the call of duty. Kirk NationaLease was one of 15 affiliates that received an award, out of the 120 members in the NationaLease system. This achievement was made possible due to the Kirk NationaLease shop personnel providing high quality service, including exceptional efficiency in communication and responsiveness to the emergency repair needs of other affiliates. NationaLease is the largest member-owned system of interdependent, full-service leasing companies in North America. NationaLease represents independent leasing companies (affiliates) that supply maintenance and administrative services for over 100,000 vehicles at over 600 facilities across the United States and Canada. Kirk NationaLease leases and maintains trucks, trailers, and related equipment, as well as provides 24-hour emergency road service for breakdowns, throughout the eastern Midwest region of the United States, and operates 24 maintenance facilities in 9 different states; Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Kentucky, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama and Mississippi. A new location in Texas will be coming soon.
Chief Supermarket donates more than $191,000 to local food pantries since 2009
Information submitted DEFIANCE Chief Supermarket has held Good Neighbor Day each spring since 2009 and has donated a total of $191,000 to local food pantries over five years. The $64,224 donated this year was made possible by customer food and monetary donations, vendor support, a percentage of sales from May 7 and a food donation from Chief. Good Neighbor Day was a total success. Since 2009, Good Neighbor Day has allowed Chief to donate over $191,000 to local food banks and pantries. We had excellent participation from all of our communities and these donations will make a difference for many families that are facing difficult situations, Chief Supermarkets Director of Marketing Annette Hoeffel said. According to the West Ohio Food Bank: 45 percent of clients served by the West
Ohio Food Bank report having to choose between paying for food and paying for gas for a car; 44 percent had to choose between paying for food and paying for utilities or heating fuel; 36 percent had to choose between paying for food and paying their rent or mortgage; and 35 percent had to choose between paying for food and paying for medicine or medical care. Funds donated will allow local food pantries to purchase staple food items, including produce, meat and frozen foods, at greatly reduced prices from the West Ohio Food Bank, which serves more than 200 programs in 11 counties throughout West Central Ohio. Each dollar donation to West Ohio Food Bank will provide 25 pounds of food that will make 19 meals, enough to feed 2 people for 3 days. Selected local food pantries that are not part of the West Ohio Food Bank group will also benefit directly from the donated funds.
DEAR BRUCE: Can BRUCE WILLIAMS you explain a little about CDs? I want to leave some extra money to one of my children, and a relative suggested buying CDs. This way it would not be in the will, as I dont want the other children to feel like I am favoring one over another. One child has more need, and one of the others cannot understand that. -- R.P., via email DEAR R.P.: As I have said many times in my column and on my show, I wouldnt feel any guilt about giving one child more than another. Needs vary, and everyone should understand that. You have every right to leave whatever to whomever. You can buy a CD in your name with a provision that it will become that childs upon your death. Nobody has to know that you set it up this way. Just be certain the beneficiary knows the CD is there, so that he or she can contact the institution quickly and have the money turned over to him or her. DEAR BRUCE: Is there any way I can protect myself from my husbands debt? -- Reader, via email DEAR READER: You have asked a profound and deep question to which there is no absolute answer. First, it depends on what you have signed during your marriage. Generally speaking, a husband and wife are both considered liable for debts incurred during the marriage. Even if the courts decide that your husband is responsible as far as creditors are concerned, you -- as his wife -- are very much on the notes. If you are as concerned as you appear, you should consult an attorney in your state and find out precisely what you can do now to protect your interests. Time is your enemy; get on it. DEAR BRUCE: We are trying to settle my in-laws estate in Florida since they both are deceased. One of the siblings won a lottery last summer and now has more money than he needs. He has agreed to sign over his share of the estate. We were told that his children, as his heirs, could claim his share by Florida law for up to four years. Could they sign the form as well and that would solve the issue, or would his share then go to the two grandchildren? -- Reader, via email DEAR READER: Im a little perplexed. I must assume that both of your in-laws died without a will. If there is a will and one of the heirs decides he doesnt wish to share in the estate, thats the end of it. His share would be split among the remaining heirs. I have no reason to believe that the children of the sibling who is relinquishing his rights can claim his share. I dont want to sound like a broken record, but I would suggest that you consult an attorney if any appreciable monies are involved -- not to handle the matter, but just for information as to what you should do when your brother signs off.

activity. Weight loss has a very direct effect: As people lose weight, the fatty liver becomes less fatty. Theres been some research into using diabetes drugs, vitamin E and fish oil to treat fatty liver disease and NASH. But theres not enough evidence yet to recommend them. Research on fatty liver disease is intense. Many different hormones that the body naturally makes are being linked to it. All of us carry trillions of bacteria in our intestines, but there is some evidence that the type of bacteria in our gut may influence whether we get fatty liver disease. I regard all of this as interesting but speculative; we still dont really understand what causes the condition. However, we do know this: (1) if you are overweight or obese, losing weight will help reduce the fatty liver; (2) if you have diabetes, treatments for it (particularly those that act to reduce insulin resistance) also often help.

HI AND LOIS
Be patient when it comes to your objectives and aims in the coming days. Your progress might be rather slow in the beginning, but with each passing month, your momentum will gradually increase. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -You should be able to call the shots with excellent results. Just be sure to pick the right people for your team. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Be your own person, striving to do your own thing. If you can work independently of others, youll be able to make significant progress. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -Try to spend some time with very special friends. Certain events are occurring that will cement such bonds even further. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- If youre motivated by unselfish reasons, you can make some major achievements. When doing things for others, youll find yourself advancing your own causes as well. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -What you say is likely to carry far more weight than usual, especially for a friend who is in dire need of encouragement. Devote as much time as possible to being this persons booster. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- You have two especially strong assets that can be utilized for profitable ends. The first one is your commercial instinct for what the public needs; the second is your knowledge of the market. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23Dec. 21) -- Dont attempt to do everything single-handed today when you have plenty of others waiting to help. Besides, success is more likely when the effort to attain is collective. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Having plenty of time to play will not necessarily satisfy your restless nature. To assuage this uneasiness, you need to feel that youve accomplished something worthy. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- All work and no play could quickly put you in a rut. Keep your nose to the grindstone early on, so that youll have some time to do something relaxing later. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -This is an excellent day to take care of deadlines. Fortunately, youre a strong finisher, and you should be able to clean up some critical matters. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- If youre feeling restless, why not get in touch with some old friends whom you havent seen or talked to in quite a while? Itll be worth it. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Stay on top of arrangements that could add a sizeable amount to your resources. Plans that you are in the midst of developing could become quite meaningful.

an improvement in procedure. Head cooks at each building will be given additional hours to take on added responsibilities left by the eliminated positions. The district also received a federally-funded Cafeteria Expansion Grant to purchase additional software service from Meals Plus Program, which provides the school buildings with electronic lunch tickets. Rostorfer said the new services will help with the increase in free- and reduced-lunch students. Keith Gudakunst was employed as middle school science and math teacher. According to Sukup, after the retirement of Laura Osburn and the subsequent internal movements, this was the remaining position. Gudakunst comes to the district with nine years of experience and finished this school year at Ada. The board also retained Sukup on an as-needed basis through July 1. By law, the district must have an acting superintendent at all times and newly-elected Kevin Wolfe is still under contract at Ayersville. An updated policy for the evaluation of staff was approved. The policy was formed by administrators and teachers. In line with the adoption of the new policy, the board approved a memorandum of understanding agreement to amend the current negotiated agreement with the Delphos Education Association, leaving all other parts of the agreement unchanged and in full effect. Students and parents will notice a difference in the Athletic Handbook for the 2013-14 school year. A student found to be using tobacco, drugs and/or alcohol will be immediately removed from a sports team. This includes junior high and high school students. In the past, disciplinary measures included the student being suspended for a percentage of the sports season. In other business, the board: Approved issuing supplemental contracts to Damon Ulm for assistant track coach for 2013; Matt Bullinger for junior varsity golf coach for 2014; and Jeff Rex, Science Club/Marine Biology advisor for 2014; Accepted the supplemental resignation of Josiah Stober for junior high boys basketball coach and from Stephanie Braun as junior class advisor and Prom coordinator; and Approved moving John Vennekotter to the Masters colknowledgeable in specialumn of the salary schedule to begin the 2013-14 school year. education needs Ive worked with, Sukup said.

Division V finals at The Shoe and knocking out LCC in the sectional finals 2-0 in softball to go on to the districts. While reflecting on his career, Moreo has a few words of advice for his successor. Middle school students are concerned with two things: physical appearance and social status. Everything revolves around those two things. It takes them a while to learn the world is much bigger than that. You know theyre going to be OK but you have to deal with the crisis of the moment but longevity tells you it will be OK, he said. You have to care deeply about each child and humor goes a long way. You have to have a sense of humor. Moreo added that the new guy or gal will learn to arrive a little early, stay a little late and never lose sight of the fact that they are impacting lives. You have to be positive, he added. Always be positive even if it hurts. Moreo and his wife, Phyllis, a special-needs instructor at Franklin Elementary, have two grown daughters: Christine and Lyndsey. Christine is a teacher at Holgate and coaches varsity softball and junior high girls basketball. Lyndsey is a speech and language pathologist in Sylvania.
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. At least four major wildfires broke out along the front of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado Tuesday, burning a handful of houses and chasing people from thousands of homes in hot, gusty weather. Thick smoke plumes visible for hundreds of miles billowed from fires near Colorado Springs, in southern Colorado, and in Rocky Mountain National Park to the north. The most serious appeared to be a wildfire in a residential area northeast of Colorado Springs, where 2,530 homes faced mandatory evacuations. El Paso County Sheriff Terry Maketa said that about eight homes had burned, but had no exact number because the fire was moving so quickly across parched forest. Right now the firefighters are more focused on fighting fires, drawing lines. And law enforcement, to be very honest, is scrambling to get people out of there as well as do searches, Maketa said. Three helicopters were battling the Colorado Springs fire, he said. The area is not far from last summers devastating Waldo Canyon Fire that destroyed 346 homes and killed two. All the Colorado wildfires were moving quickly, driven by hot, gusty winds and record-setting temperatures. Weather is not working with us right now, but our guys are giving it a heck of a shot, Maketa said. There were no immediate reports of injuries in any of the fires. In southern Colorado, the Bureau of Land Management said three structures have been lost in a fire on about 300 acres near the Royal Gorge Bridge. Authorities evacuated Royal Gorge Bridge & Park. A third wildfire in southern Colorado erupted Tuesday in rural Huerfano County. The Klikus Fire had burned an estimated 45 to 50 acres west of La Veta, prompting evacuation orders to about 200 residences northeast of the fire. There were no immediate reports of injuries or structure damage from the Klikus Fire. A fourth wildfire was burning in Rocky Mountain National Park, covering 300 to 400 acres. No structures were threatened.
