JANUARY Jan. 2 Another historic building in Paulding was slated to hit the ground as county commissioners have taken steps toward demolishing the old jail building on South Williams Street. The jail was built in 1876 and operated continuously until a new facility opened in 2007. The building had been empty for five years and used only for storage.

Jan. 14 Despite disturbing nationwide reports on epidemic-like flu outbreaks, Allen County has seen a slight increase in the number of hospitalized flu cases from 66 last year at this time to 89 this year and Putnam and Van Wert counties remain consistent with last years numbers with 13 and three hospitalized cases. Jan. 18 Sarah Jane Living Center in Delphos ranked 13th scoring 94.82 out of 100 among more than 900 facilities participating in the 2012 Nursing Home Family Satisfaction Survey. Jan. 24 The building that housed the C. Scherger Monument Company, which was started in 1874 by Constantine Scherger, was being torn down. The current building at 507 N.

Feb. 2 The government, for the first time, was proposing broad new standards to make sure all foods sold in schools are more healthful, a change that would ban the sale of most candy, high-calorie sports drinks and greasy foods on campus. Under new rules proposed by the Department of Agriculture Friday, school vending machines would start selling water, low-calorie sports drinks, diet sodas and baked chips instead. Lunchrooms that now sell fatty a la carte items like mozzarella sticks and nachos would have to switch to healthier pizzas, low-fat hamburgers, fruit cups and yogurt.

One Year Ago The Lady Blue Jays took advantage of deep foul trouble by Spencerville and used the free-throw line to emerge with a 50-26 non-league hardwood victory Thursday night at Spencerville. The Jays lead bounced between a high of 24 the final margin and 18 as the fourth period finished off the contest. 25 Years Ago 1988 Thirty-five years ago, Santa (Bob Shelmadine of Gomer) visited the home of the Bert Redmons of Delphos, where Greg Redmon and his cousin Rodney McGuire delighted in their annual visit from Santa. On Monday, the visitation was reversed when McGuire of Eaton Rapids, Mich., donned his Santa suit and went to Gomer to visit Shelmadine. McGuire had been so impressed by Shelmadines spreading the holiday spirit that three years ago he began the custom in the homes of his friends. On the strength of a strong first half, the Elida Lady Bulldogs proved inhospitable hosts as they sent the Blue Jays from St. Johns home on the short end of a 58-37 score. The only Blue Jay in twin digits was Lisa Sadler with 10, followed by Lori Youngpeter with eight and Missy Hilvers seven. Getting the candles lit for the luminary was not an easy task. Rosie Bonifas and her sister, Eileen, placed candles at their home at the corner of Second and State streets. Although various groups placed candles on the major streets, some families placed candles at their homes. Candles were placed on Second Street by Bob Ulm, Don Schimmoller and Dave Dickman. 50 Years Ago 1963 It will be the St. Johns Blue Jays going against undefeated Celina Immaculate Conception Saturday evening at St. Johns gym for the holiday tournament championship honors.

The Maine couple spent Christmas Eve at a family members home without electricity. Christmas morning found them at their own home without power. And to complete their holiday, they traveled to a third darkened home to exchange gifts that afternoon.

Troy woman claims $1 million Mega Millions share
TROY (AP) An Ohio woman has claimed a prize of $1 million following the near-record Mega Millions drawing earlier this month. The Ohio Lottery says Patricia Edwards of Troy matched all five white balls in the Dec. 17 drawing. Had she matched the Megaball as well, the 54-year-old would have won part of the $648 million jackpot. Lottery officials say she made her claim on Monday. Her $1-million prize was one of 11 sold for the drawing, and the only one in Ohio. Edwards bought her ticket at a Speedway in Troy, which gets a $1,000 sales bonus.

to resume chemotherapy for her leukemia. Instead, they decided to use natural medicines, such as herbs and vitamins. The Hershbergers shun many facets of modern life and are deeply religious. They have said they stopped chemotherapy not for religious reasons but because it was making Sarah too sick and they feared it could end up killing her. Doctors at Akron Childrens Hospital believe Sarahs leukemia is treatable but have said she will die within a year without chemotherapy. Schimer, an attorney whos also a registered nurse, has asked the court to let her drop her attempt to force Sarah to resume chemotherapy, because it became impossible to make medical decisions for Sarah after the family fled. If approved by a judge, Schimers resignation could end the familys monthslong fight against the hospital and pave the way for them to return home, where they live on a farm and operate a produce stand near the village of Spencer, about 35 miles southwest of Cleveland. Medina County Probate Judge Kevin Dunn has delayed a decision on the resignation request. He said he first wants to make sure he has authority to grant it in light of the ongoing appeal in state court. In a separate filing on that issue this week, the familys lawyer argued that Dunn should immediately accept the resignation and that it wouldnt hinder the appeal. Dickinson has said that an attorney told him the hospital wont continue its legal push to get chemotherapy for Sarah if her guardians resignation is approved.

Join the LSO at the Crouse Performance Hall of the Veterans Memorial Civic and Convention Center to watch Chaplins comedic brilliance come alive on the big screen accompanied by the orchestra. Charlie Chaplin (18891997) not only starred in, wrote and directed City Lights himself but also composed the musical score for the film.

past, Chaplin stayed true to the belief that body language and expression spoke to people in a way that no words could. His belief proved true after the films great financial and artistic successes, eventually being considered one of Chaplins greatest pieces of cinematic art.

Green has 1,365 yards on catches, leaving him 76 away from breaking Chad Johnsons team record from 2007. Green has 94 catches and could become only the third Bengals receiver to have 100 in a season, joining Carl Pickens (100) and T.J. Houshmandzadeh (112). Records and their first division championship together are considered a preface to what really matters. Were playing for a bigger picture thats the Super Bowl, Green said. No Bengals player has more pressure than Dalton, who had miserable games in playoff losses to Houston each of the last two seasons. The Bengals havent won a playoff game since 1990, tied for the seventh-longest stretch of futility in NFL history. Dalton has dealt with the stress by putting together one of the best seasons in club history. And hes done it in his low-key way. I like the way he is, I think the players respect the way he is, that he doesnt get too high or too low at any time, Gruden said. Hes very evenkeel and he keeps everybody in a calm state of mind.
BEREA Josh Gordons season went beyond what he or anyone else expected. Way beyond. The second-year wide receiver has broken Browns records, set league marks and evolved into one of the games top playmakers. And, hes done it despite being suspended for two games. Next year, he has even higher goals. Hands down, just be outright the best wide receiver in the NFL, he said. Move over, Megatron. On Thursday, Gordon was unanimously voted Clevelands MVP for 2013 by the local chapter of the Pro Football Writers Association. Gordon wrapped up his victory weeks ago, when he went on a 4-game tear unlike any the league has ever seen. He rewrote the record books, becoming the first player to top 200 yards receiving in consecutive games, totaled 649 yards in three games and racked up 774 yards in four. He turned short catches into long gains. He dominated highly-regarded New England cornerback Aqib Talib and the 6-3, 225-pounder gave Cleveland fans a reason to watch the Browns, who fell apart following a 4-5 start and enter the season finale against Pittsburgh on a six-game losing streak and with nine losses in 10 games. Gordon was virtually unstoppable. I think I did pretty well, considering the circumstances and what I wanted to get done, he said. I think I met every expectation I could have had. Maybe I could have made a few more plays here or there, little things. I think I did all right. With 1,564 yards, Gordon enters the weekend leading Detroits Calvin Johnson (1,492) for the league lead. No Cleveland player has ever finished the season on top, and Gordon, averaging 120.3 yards per game and 19.6 yards per catch, would like to add that his growing
resume along with a Pro Bowl trip. But despite his brilliance, Gordon hasnt been perfect. By his lofty standards, Gordons past two games have been pedestrian. He had just 67 yards all in the second half in a loss to Chicago two weeks ago. Last week against the New York Jets, Gordon dropped two passes, one on a fade pattern in the end zone that cost the Browns a touchdown. The lapses stood out because Gordon has been so dependable, so dominant. He, too, was puzzled and disappointed by his performances. I want to do the best that I can do and I never want to let anyone down and miss a play, he explained. I always want to make a play and be a guy that can be relied upon. It seems as though Ive missed a few plays the past few games and it seemed out of character for me. I cant really say what it was. Gordon acknowledged he may have been pressing, trying to make big plays and losing focus. Hes only 22 and still learning that consistency is the key to greatness. Hes still a receiver thats learning on the go, Browns quarterback Jason Campbell said. Hes had some outstanding games this year. Theres still some things he can continue to keep working on, continue to keep improving and really the skys the limit for a guy like him. Campbell said he spoke to Gordon about last weeks game and urged him to put it behind him. I said, Every player has those games, you just cant get stuck on it, Campbell recalled. Bounce back this week and go out and perform in practice and move on and just challenge yourself to be that elite receiver that you want to be. Gordon understands hes a work in progress. Im glad where Im at right now, he added, but I think I could always do a lot better.

after birth, during infancy or childhood. Usually just one hip is affected, but in about 20 percent of children with this condition it affects both hips. The condition is more common in babies who were breech deliveries. It also seems to run in families. It happens more often in little girls than in little boys, and more often in firstborn infants. We dont know why. Doctors routinely check for developmental dysplasia of the hip in newborns and at follow-up well-baby visits. If the doctor feels unusual movement of the hip, he or she will use ultrasound or X-rays to confirm the diagnosis. Left untreated, developmental dysplasia of the hip can lead to a shortened leg, arthritis, difficulty walking and long-term pain. But with early treatment, most children can walk normally and have normal hip function. Treatment depends on the childs age: -- Newborns usually wear a special device, such as the Pavlik harness or the Frejka
splint. These devices keep the top of the femur in the socket the right way. The hip ligaments gradually tighten and the hip joint usually stabilizes. -- For infants age 1 month to 6 months, the doctor will try a harness or splint. If these devices dont help, the doctor will consider gently (and nonsurgically) putting the head of the femur in place while the child is under anesthesia. This is called a closed reduction. The child then wears a body cast (spica cast) until the hip joint is normal. -- Most children age 6 months to 2 years can be treated with closed reduction and a spica cast. Some require open surgery. -- For children older than 2 years, surgery is often needed, followed by a spica cast. Fortunately, treatment is usually effective, and the child does not have hip problems later in life. (Dr. Komaroff is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School.

between a revocable trust and a nonrevocable trust? -- L.W., via e-mail DEAR L.W.: Very simply, as the word implies, a revocable trust can be put aside anytime. An irrevocable trust is written in stone. Its set up so the rights of someone cant be taken away. Before you get involved in either of these trusts, be certain to consult an attorney and find out which one is best for your circumstance. Generally speaking, the revocable trust is the one that would be in your best interest. (Send questions to bruce@ brucewilliams.com. Questions of general interest will be answered in future columns.

HI AND LOIS
down Gary Coopers Oscarwinning role in High Noon (1952) and Charlton Hestons Oscarwinning role Marlon in Ben-Hur Brando (1959). Q: One of my favorite singing teams from the 1960s and 70s was Sandler and Young. Whatever happened to the duo? -- G.L., Torrance, Calif. A: Tony Sandler and Ralph Young met in Milan, Italy, in 1963 while rehearsing separately for a Las Vegas revue. They became friends and then merged their talents, which led to an active nightclub and recording career. Young retired in 1983 at the age of 65; however, he later made solo appearances. He died at his Palm Springs, Calif., home on Aug. 22, 2008, at age 90. Sandler, who was 16 years younger than his one-time partner, continued his entertainment career. Q: After seeing the World War I epic War Horse, I was wondering: When did the Battle of the Somme take place? Was it an important battle? -- G.H., Jacksonville, Ind. A: The Battle of the Somme took place between July 1 and Nov. 18, 1916, on either side of the Somme River in France. By the time fighting stopped, the forces involved suffered more than 1 million casualties, making it one of the bloodiest military operations ever recorded. The opening day of the battle saw the British army suffer the worst day in its history, sustaining nearly 60,000 casualties. Some historians have portrayed the Somme as a preliminary to the defeat of the German army.

Dream
(Continued from page 1) Tim along with wife Lois and their children Travis, Matt and Rachel will depart their residence in Pandora Tuesday to head for the warmer climate of Florida. They will be renting a house in Clearwater, Fla., where Tim has some relatives living. We are going to Florida for three months to get out of this cold, Tim said. With the help of Jeff and his organization they are making this possible. I had dreamed of moving to Florida after I retired and now I will get to experience that. This is going to be a family adventure. Without the help of the PHAALS Foundation, Lois said Tims activities this winter would have been restricted due to the cold weather. If we were here all winter, he (Tim) would not be able to get outside at all, Lois said. The cold affects his hands and he is not able to deal with the cold like he used to. He doesnt have the muscles there to protect him. It gives him something to look forward to, instead of dreading the winter. Tim was inducted into the PHAALS Foundation Hall of Fame last spring during a baseball game between Pandora-Gilboa and Miller City at Fifth Third Field in Toledo. Before being presented their donation from the PHAALS Foundation, Swick had this to say about Tim: Tim has always been instrumental in his community, school, church and family. Since being diagnosed, he has continued to work from home for his employer, Grob Systems, as an electrical engineer. Tim always had dreamed of living in Florida when he retired. Due to his diagnosis, this dream has been challenged and this is where the assistance of family and friends come in. Tims wife and children have made changes to their work and school schedules so that the entire family can enjoy a warm winter in Florida, spending quality precious time together making memories that will last a lifetime. We here at the PHAALS Foundation are proud and excited to be part of fulfilling Tims Diamond Dream request. Besides the donation from the PHAALS Foundation, Grob Systems will also be making a donation to assist the family on their trip. This is one of our goals; to give our families somebody to reach out to, Swick said. We are so geared and wanting to be for the family directly. The chapters in the association are so good at doing the things on the larger scale, in terms of research and stuff like that. We want to be the funnel, thats kind of our slogan, because there are so many little things that get bypassed when it comes to the big deal; we kind of bring that down and do things directly that we can get our hands on. The hands-on approach to the families is where we can get inside the family and say What can we do for them now? Its not whats going to be done because we dont know whats going to happen down the road but it gives us the chance to do things like this. Funding for projects, such as the Diamond Dreams Program, comes from events throughout the year along with the foundations business partners, donations and volunteers. Many of these fund raising events are held at high school baseball games throughout Northwest Ohio in the spring. Jeff is a fantastic guy that is really doing the best for people with ALS. There are a lot of people in this area that have it. Jeff Swick is outstanding to do this stuff, Tim said. A second family was presented a Diamond Dreams donation in Robin and John Mower of Toledo. Robin was diagnosed with ALS in 2009. Robin and John wanted to travel the country by RV seeing the sights, meeting other ALS patients and spreading awareness about Lou Gehrigs Disease. Their travels took them from Toledo to Washington, D.C., to Florida to New Orleans to San Diego, Calif. They returned from that trip on December 17. At the presentation, it was announced the PHAALS Foundation will be awarding $2,500 educational scholarships this March and they will be establishing the PHAALS Foundation Hall of Fame Research Grant that will be given to hospitals doing ALS Research.
