Fisher mixes it up with vibrant color

BY STEPHANIE GROVES Staff Writer sgroves@delphosherald.com DELPHOS Anna Talei Fisher is an artist, a teacher and a member of the Delphos Area Art Guild, an organization she has been involved in for many years. At first, I entered their annual art show and then I taught childrens classes during summer camp, she explained. I have participated in various workshops offered there over the years. She is very excited to be teaching classes again at DAAG and seeing the Home School begin to grow as well as Art for Everyone. Fisher said she has found a perfect niche which allows her to work in her studio and teach classes at art centers, nursing homes and facilities with groups of challenged individuals. Fisher was born in Suva, the capital of Fiji, and her love of art began with the incredible colors of the flowering plants, sun and sea. Her family then moved to England and she

grew up in East Anglia with artistic parents within a community of artists. She said everyday she watched artists working and played in their art studios and developed a love for creating art. I think being born in Fiji and living in East Anglia UK among many artists opened my eyes and soul to the creative path, Fisher explained. She began her college experience at Colchester College in England and later moved to the United States with her husband, where she attended The Ohio State University in Lima. She then went on to graduate from Bluffton University with a Bachelor in Fine Arts. Over time, Fishers art has developed into an extension of herself. I feel art is always a central part of who I have become, she detailed. I am creating new works that reveal pieces of my life; images that I remember, pieces from my history that tell a story to the viewer. See FISHER, page 9

... a surgical nurse

By JIM LANGHAM DHI Correspondent news@delphosherald.com VAN WERT - For 27 years, Faye Mohr has served with dedication as a registered nurse at Van Wert Hospital. In all of those years, she has never missed work due to weather conditions in spite of the fact that she lives in the country four miles southeast of Van Wert. Mohr admitted that she has somewhat of an advantage because her family farms and is into snow removal. Her driveway is always clean in the morning when she leaves for work. Once there was a close call, said Mohr, but a family member plowed the entire four miles to the hospital with the dedicated nurse right behind him. See NURSE, page 9

For The Record

One Year Ago Investigator Benjamin Becker of the Delphos Police Department has been named 2012 Officer of the Year by Delphos Police Chief Kyle Fittro. It is the second time Becker has been so honored. Becker joined the department as an auxiliary officer in 2002, then transitioned to full time in 2005.

FROM THE ARCHIVES

25 Years Ago 1989 St. Davids Day suppers are planned at Venedocia and Gomer churches. Salem Presbyterian Church, Venedocia, will hold its supper March 1. The Rev. Scott Myers will show a video tape of a recent trip of Gomer and Venedocia church people to Wales. St. David, patron saint of Wales, who died March 1, 549, will also be honored with a supper March 3 at Gomer United Church of Christ. Sunrise Sunset chapter of Ohio Child Conservation League met recently in the home of June Gable with Rosie Hesseling as cohostess. Hans Pleureekers, an exchange student from Belgium, was guest speaker. Hans spoke on his homeland and the difference between his and American culture. The March meeting will be at the home of Martha Drerup. The action was fast and furious and the noise level fairly raised the roof as the Jefferson Wildcats defeated the St. Johns Blue Jays 73-66 in the upper bracket of the boys Division IV sectional tournament Tuesday evening in Van Wert. Leading scorer for the Blue Jays and the game was Curt Mager with 32 markers. Duane Grothause added 18. Three Wildcats were in double digits. Jon Boggs led the way with 18, Chris Renner added 14 and Mike Minnig 11. 50 Years Ago - 1964 Delphos St. Johns Blue Jays eliminated the Elida Bulldogs from further tournament play Friday night by edging the Bulldogs 76-71 in a thrill packed Class AA sectional tourney tilt at Lima Senior High gym. Jerry Carder led the Blue Jay scoring with 28 points and Larry Schwinnen and John Rupert were in the

double digit column with 15 and 10. Hearts of Gomer residents of Welsh ancestry will swell with pride March 3, when they celebrate St. Davids Day with a dinner, bazaar and program. The event, in honor of the patron saint of Wales, will be the 69th observance to be held in Gomer. The first St. Davids Day observance in Gomer was in a form of a tea, with the pourers dressed in black dresses, shawls, white aprons and their native hats of Wales. Carol Coffee, secretary-treasurer of the senior class at Elida High School, and Mike Herzog, president, were chosen for first and second place respectively in the 1964 Ethan Allen Honor Society. To be eligible for this organization one must be in the top 25 percent of his graduating class. Fifteen percent of this 25 percent receive membership in the Honor Society.

75 Years Ago 1939 A deal was completed this week whereby James Zaras of Findlay has purchased the business building at 212 N. Main St. which has been owned for approximately 13 years by C. F. Lehmann. Lehmann stated that his entire stock of furniture, pianos, musical instruments, office fixtures, etc., will be liquidated within the next 60 days. As part of a project on The Middle Ages, grades five and six of St. Johns Portable presented a program Tuesday afternoon in their class room. The project was a correlation of history, English and art. The boys in charge of this work were Carl Williams, James Elwer, Robert McKowen, James Klausing, Mello Post, Howard Best and John Auer. A delightful social affair was the etiquette party held at the Jefferson School Tuesday evening for the girls of the sophomore class. Ila Scott of the faculty sponsored the party. The evening was devoted mainly to games and dancing. In the games, Betty Moorman was high, Marilyn Buettner second, Agatha Sheeter third and Jeane Rohr fourth.

The Herald 3

Judge Killits denies story Those were in Lima newspaper

Judge John Killits, of the Federal court at Toledo, absolutely denies having delivered a tirade against Delphos as a Lima paper puts it. This Lima publication states that Judge Killits called Delphos the most flagrant violator of liquor laws we have encountered. This statement is alleged to have been made concerning this city in connection with a liquor case which came before Judge Killits, in which the principal person involved resides southwest of Delphos. The Herald took occasion to communicate with Judge Killits personally by Friday and to ask him to the correctness of the report. He stated that he had not mentioned Delphos in his remarks Thursday; that the report concerning his indictment of this city was absolutely without foundation and that it probably emanated from the brain of a reporter who desired to make a good story. Delphos Herald, Dec. 7, 1928 Bowling League Formed Here Bowling is taking its place among the major sports in Delphos and is rapidly finding its way into popular favor. A Major Bowling League is being formed here at the present time. It will be sponsored by four local merchants and the Royal Alleys and the games will be rolled at that place. The best bowling talent in the city is expected to be included in the league. Each team will roll once each week. Prizes amounting to $50 in merchandise and cash are to be offered, and all of the members of several teams in the league will be eligible for these prizes. The league is scheduled to get underway next week. It is being sponsored by the Boston Store, Eagle Shoe Store, Odenwellers Clothing Store, the Crescent Laundry and the Royal Alleys. Personal of the teams will be announced soon. Delphos Herald, Dec. 7, 1927 New Use Found For Electric Chair A new use for the electric chair has been found. Instead of curtailing life it can now be used to extend it. Such a chair was shown at the New Health exhibition at the Royal Horticultural Hall, Westminster, London, recently.

Delphos Herald, Mar. 31, 1927 One of the Earliest Pioneers of Delphos Dies Mrs. Louis Mueller, of West First Street, received word telling of the death of her uncle, David Beckman, a former resident of Delphos. Mr. Beckman passed away at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Louis Brink of Toledo. His death resulted from infirmities due to his old age. He was past ninety-seven years of age. Mr. Beckman was born in Germany in 1831. When he was twelve years of age he came to America with his parents, first settling in Delphos, which was then a dense woods. Father Bredeick was also in the company with the Beckman family, crossing the ocean on the same boat. They were among the first settler in this city. Local people have often heard interesting but pitiful stories related by Mr. Beckman when he told them of the hardships the first settlers had to encounter when striving to build up the city. Mr. Beckman was united in marriage to Miss Frances Gerker. She preceded him in death about 15 years ago. The many friends and acquaintances of the deceased man in Delphos and surrounding country will be sorry to learn of his demise. Delphos Herald, Dec. 14, 1928 Bout Won By Colored Van Wert Fighter Dude Evans, Van Wert colored fighter who has appeared on cards in Delphos and is well-known to the fight fans in this city, was the win-

ner of a preliminary bout at Ft. Wayne, Wednesday night. Referring to the fight, the Fort Wayne Journal Gazette says: The second preliminary ended after four rounds, with Dude Evans the winner over Battling Gans, both of them colored. Evans was outweighed 16 pounds, but his superior boxing skill more than overbalanced this disadvantage. Gans, an extremely well-built fellow, made a good fight of it and appears to have some prospects as a fighter.

Carl Dienstbergers Harlum Hotel orchestra broadcasts over WWJ between the hours of 6:00 and 8:00 p.m. every night except Saturday and Sunday. His Eastern Star orchestra broadcasts from the BookCadillac Hotel over WJR between 10:00 p.m. and 12:30 a.m. nearly every night except Monday and Tuesday.

Horne has played with Delphos against Lima in the fall series for three seasons past. The Jersey City club of the International league sold pitcher Berly Horne to the Chicago Cubs for $20,000. (Would that be like $200,000 in todays dollars?) Horne pitched in 42 games last season, winning 18 and losing 10. Delphos Herald, Dec. 13, 1928

Description

Over 40 years ago, the people of Delphos First Assembly of God had a dream. They saw the need for constructing a multi-purpose building that would be a blessing to the church family and to the surrounding communities. Through prayer, the giving of money, work, time and sacrifice that dream became a reality. For four decades, the multi-purpose building at 800 Metbliss Avenue has served the people of our church and the surrounding communities. For more than 25 years, the multi-purpose center was known as Sonshine Day Care. During my time as the churchs pastor, the name was changed to The ROC (Righteous Outreach Center). Many church ministries like The C.R.E.W. (Christ reaching Everyones World) youth ministry and community ministries like Upward Basketball and Cheerleading, our monthly food ministry, Tri-Co Wrestlers, Teens For Christ, Community Thanksgiving Meals and so much more have taken place at The ROC. Only God knows how many thousands of lives have been touched, how many people saved, how many people influenced by the love of God because more than 40 years ago the people of this church had a dream; a unified vision! A unified vision; a unified dream has power! Ecclesiastes 4:12 (NIV) Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken. Soaring up to 350 feet in height, west coast redwoods are the tallest trees on earth. Although redwoods have no natural predators, they have a shallow root system that digs roughly 10 to 13 feet into the ground before spreading 60 to 80 feet outward. Those roots would normally put such tall trees in danger of being ripped free and toppled by high winds. However, each tree intertwines its roots with those of nearby trees, adding strength and stability to the group or grove. And so it is with people. While one person can have a dream, that dream is more likely to be achieved through the power of God and His people working together through the power of a unified vision to achieve that dream! Dreams can be compromised by settling for something less. There was a little

We have a dream
boy who lived on a farm in the late 1800s. He had never seen a circus. You can imagine his excitement, when one day a poster went up at school announcing that on the next Saturday a traveling circus was coming to the nearby town. He ran home and asked his daddy if he could go. Although the family was poor, the father sensed how important this was to the boy. He told him he could go if he got all of his Saturday chores completed ahead of time. Come Saturday morning, the chores were done and the little boy stood by the breakfast table, dressed in his Sunday best. His father reached into the pocket of his overalls and pulled out a dollar bill the most money the little boy had possessed at one time in all his life. The father cautioned him to be careful and then sent him on his way to town. The boy was so excited his feet hardly seemed to touch the ground all the way. As he neared the outskirts of the village, he noticed people lining the streets, and he worked his way through the crowd until he could see what was happening. Lo and behold, it was the approaching spectacle of a circus parade. The parade was the grandest thing this boy had ever seen. Caged animals snarled as they passed, a band played, acrobats did gymnastics and waved flags and ribbons. Finally, after everything had passed where he was standing, the traditional circus clown, with floppy shoes, baggy pants, and a brightly painted face, was at the end of the circus parade. As the clown passed by, the little boy reached into his pocket and took out that precious dollar bill. He handed the money to the clown, turned around, and went home. What had happened? The boy thought he had seen the circus when he had only seen the parade. Are you experiencing all that God has for you? The Christian life is an incred-

ible adventure. Its an exciting journey! Many people including Christians seem to be content to live a mediocre Christian life, settling for less than God wants for them. Do you want the abundant life that Jesus promised? Do you want to live life to its fullest? Dont set your sights too low! Determine to become all that God created you to be. At about 4:15 p.m. on Feb. 9, the roof of The ROC collapsed. People had been in and out of the building throughout the afternoon; however, no one was inside during the time of the collapse. For that, we are extremely grateful. Is The ROC and the ministry that took place in it dead just because the roof caved in? Is our dream to have greater impact in the city of Delphos and the surrounding area dead? Is your dream dead? Our God is still a dreamgiver! Just as we will see The ROC rise up from its current collapse and brokenness so too we will see our God-given vision and our God-given dreams come to pass! We have a dream! Our dream allows us to give up any moment all that we are in order to receive all that we can become. Our dream helps us sense the invisible so that we can see the impossible. Our dream allows us to trust Gods resources since the dream is bigger than all our abilities and acquaintances.

DEAR EDITOR: Just thought I would let our community know there are snow angels working hard here. This winter, and it has sure been a long one, I have had two guys who have kept my driveway, sidewalks, steps and patio cleared off so this if I really want to go out, I have no problem. I thank Carl Kohorst and Charles Wauben for their frigid labors on my behalf. Thanks, you guys are deeply appreciated. Id like to thank two young ladies, Sammi and Katie Knepper, for their wonderful cookies. As Rachel Ray says ... YUMMO! Sincerely, Mary Lou Wrocklage Delphos

Point of View

Ive come to eye the weather reports on a regular basis as Im sure many of you are. Ive peeked into next week and while the fourletter word is in three of the days forecast, it seems pretty tame, considering. I am gratefully watching the snow disappear from my yard and Little Ringo is also pretty excited about seeing some grass and snow that doesnt come up to his neck when he forges in. The Spencer household is getting restless. You can feel it. Ringo needs a romp in the park with his dad. Dad is tired of the cold and Mom is just tired of it all. To pass the time, weve been watching some old shows. We recently acquired the first season of some oldie-but-goodies, according to us, of course. We added Fantasy Island, The Love Boat and Green Acres to our collection. Each day after work, we snuggle in and watch an episode or two from the new collection. Its been fun. A year ago nearly to the date I wrote of my bucket list and what would not be on it a cruise. I had been following the Carnival Triumph story of an engine fire, malfunctioning bathrooms, lack of food and the smells, I think Ill just erase that line on my list. The ship was dead in the water for five days. It has been said passengers were fighting over food, urinating in showers, doing the other in plastic bags and sleeping on the top deck because it was too hot and stinky anywhere else. One report said there were five working toilets for 4,200 people. It was also believed there was no electricity or air conditioning on board. That means no ventilation. No air moving. No way to move smells out of cabins and off decks. That led me to decide a cruise just wasnt for me.

On the Other hand

Three or four episodes of Love Boat and I think Im back on board with the whole cruise thing. You can do anything, everything or nothing. Food and drink appear, theres sun and swimming and other activities and you can even choose to disembark and visit an exotic stop or two. It has gotten my hubby thinking about it, too. Hes shared my view on the whole business and perhaps we were too hasty. Of course Im not just basing this on an old TV show, Ive been doing a little research. My sister-in-law will return from a cruise next week and you can be sure I will be pumping her for information and all the details of her voyage all of them. I want to know the good, the bad and the ugly. Shes just the person to spill it all. She wont hold back. Of course, all this could have come about because we have been buried in snow, freezing our tuchuses off and are tired of fighting our way through snow, ice, frost quakes, blizzards, thunderstorms, sleet, etc. Maybe its just cabin fever that has steered us toward a cabin on a cruise ship. One thing I know for sure. If we do end up on a cruise, it would take a lot to make us say, Gosh, I wish were back home during January and February 2014 when we had all that snow and crazy-cold temperatures. I can say that with the utmost confidence.

A fading passion debt, deficits recede from view

BY JIM KUHNHENN Associated Press Its hard to deny that there is less political momentum at this moment, in the year 2014, for the type of extensive budget negotiations we saw in 2011 and 2012, said Gene Sperling, the director of the White Houses National Economic Council and a close Obama adviser. That doesnt mean the problem has been solved. Far from it. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office projects deficits will rise again in a couple of years, pushed up by an aging population, rising health care costs and anticipated increases in interest on the nations debt, the amount accumulated over the years by deficit spending. But the public has shifted its anger. The 2008-2009 bank bailouts and the stimulus spending that Obama set in motion in 2009 sparked the revolt in 2010 as swing voters those who might vote for either Democratic or Republican candidates demanded more fiscal accountability. With another midterm election this year, swing voters appear more concerned about their own personal economic circumstances, and Republicans are focused on making the election a referendum on Obamas health care law. A Gallup poll last week showed public preoccupation with debt and deficits falling as concerns over jobs took over as the top worry for Americans. Health care continued to rank among the top problems cited by those surveyed, though it has dropped slightly from its high in November during the botched enrollment rollout of the law. Deficits and debt remain salient with the Republican base, but the middle has moved on, Republican pollster Wes Anderson said. They were there in 2010, but now they are pretty strongly focused on Obamacare, with the economy as an issue picking up steam. Indeed, Republicans are now not only attacking the

Now, Where Was That?

Retirement May Far Off, You Put Them In a Be Safe Place.

WASHINGTON Just four years ago, deficits and debt were an explosive political combination, propelling Republicans to control of the House and fueling the budget fights that would ensue over the next three years. Today, they are an afterthought a dying ember in Washingtons political and policy landscape. The nations annual deficit, the amount the government spends beyond what it receives in revenue, has been cut by nearly two-thirds from its 2009 high, thanks to a combination of tax increases, an improving economy and mandatory across-theboard cuts in programs from defense to transportation to education. And lawmakers, fatigued by their budget battles, have called a truce and abandoned the brinkmanship that led to unnerving default threats and a partial government shutdown. As a result, the impulse to cut will be decidedly weaker when President Barack Obamas submits his latest budget plan to Congress early next month. The White House drove home the point Thursday when it said Obamas budget would drop his past offer to cut spending on federal benefits with lower cost-of-living increases for beneficiaries.

health care law but shifting from calling for cuts to complaining about them. House Republican leaders drew attention to the health care laws reductions in spending for Medicare Advantage, an option available to older Americans who are eligible for Medicare. In a letter to Obama, House Speaker John Boehner and other top House Republicans complained that the cuts, which Republicans themselves have included in past budgets, would result in higher health care costs for those who enroll in the program. Now is not the time to shortchange seniors choices, the Republicans wrote in a not-so-veiled appeal for the over-65 vote. That fundamental shift in attention may well be both a blessing and a curse. If the cease-fire over budgets holds, the economy no longer will be convulsed by eleventh-hour negotiations, missed deadlines, threatened shutdowns and fears of jeopardizing the nations credit. The new 2014 projection from the Congressional Budget Office $514 billion this year from a $1.4 trillion high 2009 means this years deficit would be about 3 percent of the nations economic output, good news in that it would virtually match the average percentage of the past four decades. But the nations debt continues to grow, the CBO says, ever rising as a share of the nations gross domestic product. The CBO estimates that the federal debt will equal 74 percent of GDP at the end of the year, the highest since 1946, and it projects that based on existing laws, it will rise to 79 percent in 2024. The main drivers of the debt are the governments biggest benefit programs Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. The government revenue stream is simply not keeping up with the aging population and with the increases in the cost of care. See DEBT, page 9

Earnhardt Jr. primed for another banner season

Associated Press DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. Its been a decade since Dale Earnhardt Jr.s lone Daytona 500 victory. Hes come close so many times since, even finishing second three of the last four years, but has yet to make that coveted drive down pit road and into Victory Lane. No one should be surprised to find him back there Sunday. Forget that Denny Hamlin and Matt Kenseth have won the first three Sprint Cup races during Speedweeks. Disregard that Richard Childress Racing has pole-sitter Austin Dillon, who is driving the No. 3 made famous by Earnhardts late father, as well as three other stout cars. Ignore that anything can and often does happen at Daytona International Speedway. This just might be Juniors year. The 39-year-old driver seems primed for his best season ever, and it starts at the track forever linked to his family name because of triumph and tragedy. Im excited about getting back out there, Earnhardt said. Im looking forward to seeing how we can do and how our performance is going to be right Earnhardt Jr. off the bat. Its going to be a fun year, I think. I think were going to enjoy ourselves. We did last year. We seem to get better every year, and hopefully that trajectory is still the same going into this season. Earnhardt was fifth in points last season, his best showing since finishing third in 2003. And had NASCAR already switched to its new points system, Earnhardt would have won his first Cup championship. He had eight top-10 finishes in the 10-race Chase, hitting his stride just a few weeks too late to catch Hendrick Motorsports teammate Jimmie Johnson. Johnson edged Kenseth for his sixth title in the last eight seasons. Earnhardt was nearly as hot as those two down the stretch, and hes hoping to find some carry-over into The Great American Race. He won the 2004 Daytona 500, the first of his six victories that season. But he has just four victories since and no multi-win seasons. It doesnt seem like its been that long, but time goes by pretty fast, Earnhardt said. It seems like these last several years have really flown by, especially when you enjoy yourself. They seemed to grind out when youre not running too well but the last couple of years have flown by pretty fast. Earnhardt made the Chase the last three years, becoming increasingly comfortably at Hendrick while working with crew chief Steve Letarte. Together, they turned around the No. 88 Chevrolet and made it a contender. But Letarte announced last month he will step down after this season, leaving to become a race analyst for NBC Sports in 2015. So this year could be the ultra-popular drivers best chance to win his first Cup championship. The biggest thing that stands out is just how well he and Junior connect, said fellow Hendrick driver Jeff Gordon, who previously worked with Letarte. You want to be able to have that experience as well as knowledge. Hes a smart guy, and you want to have that on your side in any shape or form, whether as a crew chief or in another role at Hendrick. That connection led Earnhardt to finish second to Jamie McMurray (2010), Kenseth (2012) and Johnson (2013) in recent years at Daytona. Theyve all been close, he said. In none of those races did I have a situation where I went, I let it slip by. I messed up right there. Most of the time, we run our guts out and come to the finish line and we just never had a chance to make a move on the guy leading the race.

Friday night was no exception as Bluffton came to The Stage of Jefferson Middle School and put the Wildcats through another wringer. The hosts put together a strong finish 14-6 and used stellar free-throw shooting (a torrid 22-of-24 for 91.7%) to finally subdue the Pirates 56-49 in Northwest Conference action. Bluffton is a pain in the rear to play; every year, they get us into this type of game. Coach (Todd) Boblitt and his staff prepare their kids well and they are so disciplined, Jefferson coach Marc Smith noted. They force you to make 1-on-1 plays and they give you nothing easy. As far as free throws go, I am not surprised; this is not bragging or anything but we shoot 76 percent as a team. Wildcat sophomore Dalton Hicks returned form an extended layoff due to an injury but played only a short time. The Wildcats (13-8, 3-5 NWC) led 42-36 to commence the finale but went through a scoring drought the first 4:54 of the fourth as the Pirates (9-13, 2-6) grabbed their last lead of 43-42 on a steal and layin by Austin Bricker at 3:57. The Wildcats, who had missed their first five shots from the field in the period and turned it over three times (14 total), finally broke that drought on a layin by sophomore Trey Smith (14 counters, 6 boards) courtesy of a midcourt diving steal and lead pass by freshman Jace Stockwell (7 markers, 5 assists, 3 thefts, 3 boards). The Wildcats then took advantage of Blufftons foul troubles (21 for the game versus 9 for Delphos). Stockwell hit both

at 3.6 ticks, Bluffton led 12-11 at the end of one. The Wildcats used 5-of-6 foul shots in the period to stay close as they were in the 1-and-1 to start the second. Smith picked up his second offensive foul of the half at 6:18 and went to the bench. However, senior Tyler Rice (10 markers, 7 caroms), installed into the starting lineup, picked up the slack with a pair of 3-pointers as the Wildcats worked their way to a 22-19 edge on his second bomb at 1:18. Joel Siefker tied it 22-all with his triple from the right wing at 50 ticks. The tempo continued slow in the third, with two ties and one lead change, until Jefferson went to a 1-2-2 3/4-court press at the 6-minute mark. That forced five Bluffton miscues in that span (16 overall), leading to a 16-7 run that was capped by a Smith (10 counters in the stanza) transition reverse layin at 22 ticks for a 42-34 edge. When Levi Kistler (12 points, 4 boards) hit a leftelbow jumper at 7.1 ticks, it as 42-36, Jefferson. Bluffton netted 19-of47 shots, 7-of-19 trifectas, for 40.4 percent and 4-of-6 foul shots (66.7%); and secured 25 rebounds (5 offensive) as Trent Phillips had six and Mitchell Ault (3 assists) four. Jefferson notched 15-of-41 fielders, 4-of-17 triples, for 36.6 percent; and 29 off the glass (6 offensive). That zone really helped us get some easier looks. It changed the tempo and forced them to go faster, Coach Smith added. That gave us a cushion. They did come back but they were battling uphill from that point on. Our kids again had to find a way to win a tough battle. We told them at the half all year, actually to play through contact and not worry about fouls; if they are called, they are.

Canada beats US 1-0 to reach gold-medal game

Associated Press SOCHI, Russia For the rematch, Canada skipped the overtime and shelved the theatrics. One slick goal and 60 minutes of stifling defensive hockey kept the Canadians firmly on top of the U.S. and moved them to the brink of gold again. Jamie Benn scored in the second period, Carey Price made 31 saves and Canada beat the United States 1-0 Friday night in the semifinals of the Olympic mens hockey tournament. Canada advanced to the goldmedal match Sunday against Sweden, which beat Finland 2-1 in the earlier semifinal at Bolshoy Ice Dome. With an unbeaten run through Sochi, the Canadians are a win away from their third gold medal in four Olympic; theyre guaranteed their first medals outside North America in 20 years. Although it was fast-paced and well-played, this win had none of the flair of Sidney Crosbys overtime goal to beat the U.S. four years ago. The Canadians didnt care. We didnt score a lot of goals but we didnt have to, Canada forward Jonathan Toews said. The next game will follow that work ethic. We can check, we can work our tails off and we can make things real tough for the other team. After its first loss in Sochi, the U.S. will face Finland for bronze today. The Americans were hoping for redemption from their gutwrenching defeat in 2010 but only got a businesslike reminder of Canadas clout. We didnt show up to play, U.S. defenseman Ryan Suter said. Its too bad. We sat back. We were passive. You cant play scared. I thought we sat on our heels and just didnt take it to them at all. Indeed, the defending Olympic champions left little doubt about their North American hockey dominance in a rematch of the finale of the Vancouver Games. Although the Canadians had no signature moments and never pulled away, they also never appeared seriously threatened. From faceoff to final buzzer, Canada was in control thanks to Price, Benn and defenseman Jay Bouwmeester, whose pass created Benns goal. All three players werent on the Canadian team in Vancouver but theyre a win away from earning their own gold medals. The Canadians havent even trailed in the Sochi Olympics and coolly maintained border supremacy on the U.S. by defending their blue line with authority. Their stifling defense has allowed just three goals in five games and clamped down on an American offense that had scored 19 goals in Sochi for every minute of a slightly anti-climactic evening. We didnt really create much offense, U.S. forward Patrick Kane said. Its a little disappointing. I think everyone expected a tightchecking game but to say we would have gotten shut out, I dont think anyone would have thought that.

Big Green falls in regular-season finale By KEVIN WANNEMACHER DHI Correspondent news@delphosherald.com OTTOVILLE The Ottoville boys basketball team wrapped up the regular season Friday night with visiting Wayne Trace opening a quick lead and holding on for a 68-62 win over the Big Green. The visiting Raiders got a game-high 28 points from freshman guard Ethan Linder while senior guard Colby Speice posted 15 markers. The Raiders finish the regular season with a record of 19-3, going into next weeks sectional riding a 5-game winning streak. Its always good to go into the sectional on a winning streak and I thought the guys came out and did a good job tonight, commented Raider head coach Jim Linder. We came out and established ourselves offensively, getting a lot of people involved right away, and that was a big key tonight. The Raiders quickly jumped in front 12-6, using a pair of Speice treys and two Devin Wenzlick baskets to grab control.

Local Roundup

We didnt come out ready to play and that was disappointing, noted Ottoville mentor Todd Turnwald. You have to give Wayne Trace credit. They played hard despite facing a little adversity and they deserve credit for that. Buckets from Kyle Bendele and Colin Bendele brought the Big Green within 12-11 before the Raiders responded. Wayne Trace closed the opening stanza with 11 straight points, using treys from Ethan Linder, Luke Miller and Speice, to widen the margin to 22-11 after eight minutes of action. The Raiders pushed the lead to 35-15 early in the second quarter, capping a 13-4 run with buckets by Jake Arend and Ethan Linder. We had a lot of guys step up and make plays tonight, continued the Raider head coach. I thought we moved the ball and did a good job of giving guys scoring opportunities in good positions. With the red, white and blue in front 36-18, Ottoville would make a run just before halftime. See ROUNDUP, page 7

Blue Jays honor seniors with a victory

By LARRY HEIING DHI Correspondent news@delphosherald.com DELPHOS The St. Johns boys basketball team used a huge second half to roll to a 50-34 Midwest Athletic Conference victory over the Parkway Panthers Friday night at Robert A. Arnzen Gymnasium. The Blue Jays outscored Parkway 29-16 in the final two quarters. Coach Aaron Elwer was happy with his teams performance in the second half: For most of our games this season, the third quarter has been our downfall. We came out and the ball started falling in the rim and our confidence grew on both sides of the ball. St. Johns honored six seniors before the game: Eric Clark, Ben Wrasman, Aaron Hellman, Ryan Koester, Nick Bockey and Jake Csukker. Fittingly enough, Koester scored the first points of the game with a triple from the corner. Clark followed his senior teammate, grabbing a loose ball after a Panther turnover and his layin put the Jays up five. The first quarter was back-and-forth as Andy Grothouse and Alex Odenweller both hit 3s. Parkway countered with triples from Tanner Bates and a pair by Austin Adams to knot the score at 11 when the first-quarter buzzer sounded. Parkway took its only lead of the game when Dakota Shaffner hit a jumper from the baseline to put the Panthers in front by two. St. Johns tied the game on a putback by Tyler Conley after an offensive rebound; Koester scored after driving the Vatican baseline for the bucket and the Jays never looked back and took a 21-18 lead into the locker room. St. Johns third-quarter outburst was started when Conley hit a turnaround jumper from the foul line. Koester drilled a triple and Conley made two from the charity line for a 10-point lead. Clarks steal of a Panther pass and coast-to-coast layin forced Parkway coach Rick Hickman to call timeout to stop the bleeding with 4:44 left in the third. The third-stanza scoring was highlighted by Grothouse and Odenweller draining 3s and St. Johns headed into the seniors final eight minutes on the floor at Arnzen Gym leading 40-21. Parkways Brant Barna scored first in the fourth with a bucket after a Blue Jay turnover. Koester found Odenweller under the bucket for an assist and scored after a steal from Parkway to put the home team ahead by 20. With the Blue Jays safely in control of the game, Elwer worked all six of his seniors on the floor in the closing minutes of the game for their final curtain call. The game ended when Bockey took the ball from the top of the key and drove down the lane to put the closing exclamation mark on a final victory at home. St. Johns shot 43 percent from the field, including a hot 12-of-23 from 2-point land. The Panthers, meanwhile, shot only 29 percent, due in part to the tough Jays defense. On the boards, Parkway brought down 20 misses compared to 15 rebounds for St.

The Big Green closed the first half with two free throws each from Luke Schimmoeller and Kyle Bendele before adding a Kyle Bendele bucket to slice the deficit to 38-24 at the intermission. I thought we became more aggressive in the second half but we have to do that in the first two quarters, Turnwald continued. Quarter number three saw the two teams play virtually even, with Wayne Trace outscoring the Big Green 14-13 to post a 52-37 lead entering the fourth quarter. However, it was all Ottoville at the start of the final period. The hosts scored the first 11 points of the quarter to trim the deficit to 52-48 on a Tyler Roby basket 5:48 remaining in the contest. Ottoville actually pulled within 54-52 on a Landin bucket at the 4:41 mark but the Raiders would respond. An Ethan Linder basket, one of two free throws from Wenzlick and a trey by Ethan Linder widened the red, white and blue advantage to 62-54, a margin that would prove to be too much for Ottoville to overcome. Wayne Trace expanded the lead to 64-55 following a pair of Miller foul shots before a Schimmoeller three point play cut the Big Green deficit to 64-58. Miller added two more charity tosses to make it 66-58 but Ottoville again answered, getting a 3-point play from Landin to trim the lead to 66-61 with 30 seconds left. Linder, though, finished the Raider scoring on the night with two free throws to seal the 68-62 victory. Ethan stepped up for us tonight, added the Raider head coach. Luke came in and hit some shots for us again and we got some big shots from Colby as well. All of them contributed in their own ways tonight. David Sinn chipped in seven markers for the Raiders while Wenzlick added six markers. Speice and Wenzlick both picked up six caroms as well. Linder dished out three assists and recorded four steals while Jake Arend posted three assists and three steals. Landin led the way for Ottoville with 21 points followed by Schimmoeller with 20 and Kyle Bendele chipped in 13 markers. Austin Honigford, Schimmoeller and Kyle Bendele all had six caroms for the Big Green, who won the battle of the boards 27-24. Ottoville did commit 18 turnovers on the night compared to Wayne Traces 13. The Raiders were 22-of-46 from the field (48 percent), including hitting 10-of-20 (50 percent) from beyond the arc. Ottoville connected on 22-of-43 shots (51 percent) on the night but was only 3-of-14 (21 percent) from 3-point land. We have to get better, Turnwald concluded.

Vikings spear Musketeers in PCL By DAVE BONINSEGNA DHI Correspondent news@delphosherald.com LEIPSIC It was raining triples at Leipsic High School on Friday night at the Fort Jennings Musketeers and the Leipsic Vikings rounded out the boys regular season in the Putnam County League. The Musketeers hoisted 25 attempts from beyond the arc, while the hosts delivered 13 shots. The guests made good on eight, Leipsic on four, but in the end, the home team came through when it counted, coming away with a 69-52 victory. Leipsic had five players in double figures in a balanced scoring effort: Matt Schroeder and Jordan Brown had 15 each for the home team, Oscar Lopez 13, Zach Kuhlman 11 and Gavin Cupp 10 in the win. Conner Wallenhorst paced the Musketeers with 17 markers, hitting three from beyond the arc; Nick Von Sossan put 10 on the board, nailing a pair of shots from long range. After a back-and-forth battle to start things off, Leipsic went on a 9-0 run to set the tone for the game. Schroeder hit a long-range shot, followed by a pair of Brown buckets from in the paint; a Lopez steal and conversion sent the Vikes up by a count of 22-13 with seconds left in the first frame. The Musketeers tried to combat the deficit in the second as Von Sossan drained a pair of long balls, along with Wallenhorsts third 3-pointer of the night, cutting the Leipsic lead down to 33-26. However, the home team responded with a pair of 3s of their own by Kuhlman and Schroeder, the latter giving Leipsic a 38-29 advantage going into the break. In the second half, the long attempts kept coming from the visitors but the conversions were fewer and farther between; Fort Jennings made just 2-of-8 3-pointers in the second 16 minutes of play, while Cupp hit from eight of his 10 markers in the third canto. Lopez went on a personal 8-0 run in the period to help extend the home team lead to 54-36

Lancers edge Bearcats in NWC tilt By NICK JOHNSON Times-Bulletin Correspondent sports@timesbulletin.com MIDDLE POINT The Lincolnview Lancers welcomed the Spencerville Bearcats to Lincolnview High School on Senior Night for the Lancers as six seniors played their last home game in front of the Lancer faithful. The Lancers got a 1-point victory over Northwest Conference foe, Spencerville, by a 56-55 score. The Lancers said goodbye to Kyle Williams, just the sixth Lincolnview boys basketball player to reach 1,000 points scored in a career; he ranks second all-time in made3-pointers. Lincolnview also bid goodbye to fellow seniors Derek Friesner, Ethan Fraker, Conner McCleery, Eli Farmer and Logan Miller. We have six seniors that have giving me four great years since we have been in the high school program. I wanted to send them out the right way and Williams, McCleery and Farmer brought the energy tonight and great effort; then we got Logan, Ethan and Derek, who have been great every day in practice and they really deserve this to go out with a win, said Lincolnview coach Brett Hammons. On the night Williams was honored for pointscoring ability, Williams open the game with a 3-pointer. Spencerville cut the lead to 3-2 with two made foul shots from Ben Bowers. After that, the Lancers went on a 9-0 run, getting a basket from McCleery, four points from Hayden Ludwig and three from Justis Dowdy. The Bearcats got a 3-pointer from Mason Nourse and a basket from Zach Goecke but a layup from Williams gave Lincolnview a 14-7 lead at the end of first period. Lincolnview opened the second quarter with an 8-0 run to make the score 22-7 but the Bearcats got 3s from Nourse and Bowers to cut the Lancers lead to 25-14. Each etam scored four points to bring the halftime score to 29-18, home team. Spencerville wasnt messing around to start the third quarter as Nourse scored seven straight points, including two 3s, to cut the Lancer lead to 29-25 and a layup from Goecke cut it to two points but layups from Dowdy and McCleery extended the lead back to 33-27. Dakota Prichard got a steal and took the ball coast-to-coast for the Bearcats to make the score 35-31, Lincolnview, at the end of the third stanza. After a Bowers jumper to start the fourth for Spencerville, Lincolnview got a 3 from Williams and baskets from Dowdy and McCleery to increase

the lead to 42-33. Midway thru, a Nourse trey cut the Lancer lead to 44-40 but Lincolnview quickly countered with a 3-point play from Dowdy. The Lancers had a 53-44 lead with three minutes left but Spencerville got hot from beyond the arc as Bowers drained two 3s and Nourse one. After two made Goecke foul shots, the Bearcats were just down two with seconds left on the clock. Spencerville fouled Williams and he calmly drained two foul shots to give the Lancers a 56-52 lead. With seconds ticking off the clock, Bowers knocked down a triple for Spencerville to make it 56-55 but the Lancers quickly inbounded the ball and the horn sounded. We didnt deserve to win; we gave ourselves some chances in the second half. We didnt deserve to win and they played harder than us all game, said Spencerville coach Kevin Sensabaugh. They beat us to the ball with offensive rebounds and loose balls. Our guys didnt come ready to and we got what we deserve. We didnt shoot the ball well and I think part of that isnt not having the intensity we have had all year and we were not in the right frame; I just know that wasnt the team I had coach the last couple weeks. Extremely proud of the players; we know it was going to be our last game here and we came in on a 3-game losing streak and playing a tough game against Wayne Trace last night, Hammons added. We had to get back up for this game. I thought we battled all game long and we were able to get out to an early lead and luckily we were able to hold Spencerville off at the end, said coach Hammons. The Bearcats had two scorers in double digits as Bowers had a game-high 24 points and seven rebounds and Nourse chipped in with 19 points for Spencerville. The Lancers had three players in double figures points as Ludwig had 15 points and seven rebounds, Williams added in 13 points and Dowdy put 12 points and nine boards in for the Lancer victory. The Bearcats and Lancer both finish the season 6-2 in the NWC, which is good enough for second place. Spencerville drops to 15-5 on the year, whereas the Lancers improve to 11-11 on the season.

Have no fear! Spring will arrive next month, at least according to the calendar, and then comes summer. I like winter hibernation better than being a prisoner to air conditioning. Of course, I dont have to work in itI just work from home. I like cozy sweatsuits and warm slippers better than summer clothes. Maybe its because sweatsuits hide more. At any rate, Im glad I didnt live back in the old days. It must have been terribly cold in those log cabins back in the 1840s and 1850s. They had only one fireplace and some had to use blankets for doors before the got the right piece of wood for a door. When the first group of pioneers came to Delphos in 1842 they had a terrible walk from the Maumee River through the wilderness until they reached Fort Jennings, where those hardy people took them into their homes to stay for the winter. It was spring until they could walk on to Section Ten. Most of our parents and grandparents had sleds and mud boats which were pulled by a team of horses for their winter transportation. They had their meat supply hanging in the attic or smoke house and all their vegetables and fruits in the cold old storage rooms. There was also a cupboard in the basement filled with delicious canned goods. Naturally they had enough flour on hand to bake bread. Sometimes the farmers had to dig their

Rode home, where we played on their hills. When we went in the house to dry off, we played Rise Table Rise with Alice, Lenore and Arnie. To play the game you had to have a wooden table but it really would go up and down, in reply to some of our silly questions. The game wasnt exactly blessed by the Catholic Church but it was fun. Every other day, the Rode kids would hike the same route to our home. We had really nice hills along the creek so we had a really fun time. We also had littler brothers, who were not old enough to tag along. After sliding down the hills we went to our house to dry off and warm up. While in the house, we played Monopoly. Mom would let us keep the game table up so our tokens and money stayed just the way we left it when it was time for them to go home. We just continued with the same game when it was their turn to come to our place. We also make some of our own rules for Monopoly. During all these free days for us, and many other schools in Putnam County, my Delphos friends had to go to school because the buses would run on the main roads, so the kids had to find their own means of transportation to the bus stop. Back in those days we didnt have to make any of those calamity days up. The guys in Columbus didnt know or care what was happening up north. The winter of 194445 was my favorite winter of all time.

way to the barn to milk the cows and feed the chickens and horses. They didnt have running water in the barn either. In the house they probably had a hand pump at the kitchen sink and it was a cold walk to the outhouse. Weve got it good as long as the electricity stays on. When its not too cold, winter weather provides kids and adults with several recreational activities. My memory takes me back to the winter of 1944-45 when we didnt have school at Fort Jennings for the whole month of January and it was absolutely wonderful. It was truly an old-fashioned winter. It just kept snowing and blowing, making it impossible for the one and only Jennings Township snow plow to keep the roads clear. We lived on our farm in the far southwest corner of Jennings Township, practically on top of Delphos. My dad made a snowplow and mounted it on his Farmall tractor so we were able to come and go as we pleased. The Jennings Creek traversed our farm and we had nice hills along the creek. Our good friends, the Rode family lived over on State Route 190, near the confluence of the Jennings Creek and the Flat Fork Creek. They also had nice hills along the creek. I was 13 and my brother, Nub, was 10 and we went sledding everyday. Every other day Nub and I would trek over the fields and through the woods to the

available on U.S. packages because the changes are still winding their way through the monograph process. The system was originally set in place by Congress as a way for the FDA to review some 800 nonprescription drugs that predated modern drug safety regulations. Initially a panel of FDA experts went through the entire list of medications and determined whether they were generally recognized as safe. These findings were published as tentative rules for various drug classes, though many have never moved beyond that phase. The FDA has issued 150 of these tentative monographs to date. But an agency spokeswoman said Friday its unclear how many total reviews are outstanding, since one review can splinter into multiple reviews over time. The decade-spanning review process has increasingly come under fire from scientists, consumer groups and members of Congress. Last year the FDA said for the first time that there was no evidence that common anti-bacterial soap cleansers, including triclosan, were more effective than regular soap. The agency issued that statement only after a three-year court battle with the Natural Resources Defense Council, an environmental group that sued the FDA to jumpstart its stalled review of the cleansers, which had been in regulatory limbo since 1978. The FDA said Thursday it wants to design a new system that will allow for innovative changes to drug products and provide FDA with the ability to respond promptly to emerging safety or effectiveness concerns. But the leading industry group for nonprescription drugmakers says it supports the current monograph system. The system ensures consumers have access to a wide variety of safe and effective medicines, while at the same time providing FDA with access to important information on safety and quality, said Elizabeth Funderburk, spokeswoman for the Consumer Healthcare Products Association. We welcome the opportunity to provide input to FDA and hope they will use the input received to improve the rule making process to enable innovation and to update labeling in a timely manner.

Cellphone calls on planes? Dont ask the feds

WASHINGTON (AP) It looks like the government is more conflicted about cellphones on planes than most travelers. Even as one federal agency considers allowing the calls, another now wants to make sure that doesnt happen. Passengers particularly those who fly often oppose allowing calls in flight, polls show. In line with that sentiment, the Transportation Department signaled in a notice posted online Friday that it is considering retaining the 23-year-old ban on the calls and asked for public comments. But the notice comes just two months after the Federal Communications Commission voted to pursue lifting the ban. The Transportation Department regulates aviation consumer issues. The FCC has responsibility over whether the use of cellphones in flight would interfere with cellular networks on the ground. FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler has said he wants to repeal the current ban, calling it restrictive and outdated. He also wants the airlines, not the government, to have final say on in-flight calling. He declined to comment Friday on the departments notice. Echoing some travelers concerns, the Transportation Department said it believes allowing passengers to make cellphone calls may be harmful or injurious to other passengers. This is because people tend to talk louder on cellphones than when theyre having face-to-face conversations, the department said. They are also likely to talk more and further increase the noise on a flight, as passengers would not be simply talking to the persons sitting next to them but can call whomever they like. Some planes already have seat-back phones in place, but they are rarely used, it said. The concern is not about individual calls, but rather the cumulative impact of allowing in-flight calls in close quarters, the department said. In an Associated PressGfK poll three months ago, 48 percent of those surveyed opposed letting cellphones be used for voice calls while planes are in flight, while 19 percent were in favor and 30 percent were neutral. Among those whod flown four or more times in the previous year, the rate of opposition soared to 78 percent.

Mexico to trump Japan as No. 2 car exporter to US

CELAYA, Mexico (AP) Mexico is on track to become the United States No. 1 source of imported cars by the end of next year, overtaking Japan and Canada in a manufacturing boom thats turning the auto industry into a bigger source of dollars than money sent home by migrants. The boom is raising hopes that Mexico can create enough new jobs to pull millions out of poverty as northbound migration slows sharply, but critics caution that most of the new car jobs are low-skill and pay too little. Mexicos low and stagnant wages have kept the poverty rate between 40 and 50 percent since the passage of the North American Free Trade Agreement two decades ago. An $800 million Honda plant that opened Friday in the central state of Guanajuato will produce more than 200,000 Fit hatchbacks and compact sport-utility vehicles a year, helping push total Mexican car exports to the U.S. to 1.7 million in 2014, roughly 200,000 more than Japan, consulting firm IHS Automotive says. And with another big plant starting next week, Mexico is expected to surpass Canada for the top spot by the end of 2015. Its a safe bet, said Eduardo Solis, president of the Mexican Automotive Industry Association. Mexico is now one of the major global players in car manufacturing. When NAFTA was signed two decades ago, Mexico produced 6 percent of the cars built in North America. It now provides 19 percent. Total Mexican car production has risen 39 percent from 2007, to nearly 3 million cars a year. The total value of Mexicos car exports surged from $40 billion to $70.6 billion over that span. I congratulate Honda for its having confidence in Mexico, for having total confidence in the development of our country, said Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto, who attended the opening of the plant in the town of Celaya along with Honda CEO Takanobu Ito. Theyre contributing to two basic objectives, generating wealth and creating jobs in this country. Manufacturing in Mexico is now cheaper than in many places in China, though the vast majority of the cars and trucks made in North America are still produced in the U.S. for domestic consumption and export to other countries. And many of the vehicles built in Mexico are assembled with parts that are produced in the United States and Canada and cross the border without tariffs under NAFTA. There was a realization that there were some structural issues that had to be resolved in the auto industry to make it more competitive again. Moving parts, not all of the production, to Mexico was a good way to deal with that, said Christopher Wilson, an expert in U.S.-Mexico economic relations for the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars.

Colorado, Utah move to hike smoking age to 21

Nurse

DENVER (AP) Two Western states with some of the nations lowest smoking rates are considering cracking down even more by raising the tobacco age to 21. Utah and Colorado lawmakers both voted favorably on proposals Thursday to treat tobacco like alcohol and take it away from 18- to 20-year-olds, a move inspired by new research on how many smokers start the habit as teenagers. By raising the age limit, it puts them in a situation where theyre not going to pick it up until a much later age, said Marla Brannum of Lehi, Utah, who testified in favor of the idea there. In Colorado, the testimony was similar that pushing the tobacco age could make it harder for teens to access tobacco, and possibly reduce usage rates among adults. What Im hoping to do is make it harder for kids to obtain cigarettes, said Rep. Cheri Gerou, a Republican who sponsored the measure. Both proposals face several more votes. But theyre the furthest any states have gone to curb access to cigarettes by teens. The director of tobacco studies at University College London didnt know of any other countries considering a tobacco age threshold of 21, but he said raising the tobacco age from 16 to 18 in the United Kingdom proved to be a public health winner. Altria Group Inc., which owns the countrys largest cigarette maker, Philip Morris USA, said in a statement Friday that they support 18 as the minimum age to purchase tobacco, which Congress approved in 2009. The company, whose tobacco brands include Marlboro, Parliament and Virginia Slims, said states should wait until the Food and Drug Administration finishes a pending study of about raising the purchase age higher than 18. While we recognize that these are difficult issues, we believe Congress has established a thoughtful process for understanding the issue better, and we intend to engage in that process, with FDA, as it takes its course, the statement said.

There is a lot of teamwork among our coworkers, said Mohr. If there is bad weather here or on the way, we switch call days. Town people who can get here easier will take call on certain days if bad weather is predicted. For floor nurses, there are rooms available on the fourth floor where they can stay, continued Mohr. The hospital has been very gracious for adding extra beds to use. Mohr said that if nursing employees are in a weather position where they feel that they cant make it to work within 20 minutes, then they are asked to spend the night. Mohr trained for her nursing degree at Parkview Hospital and worked there briefly in the operating room. However, when an opportunity opened at Van Wert, she decided to move back to this area. Mohr, the daughter of Larry and Sue Linton who operate a family farm in rural Van Wert County, graduated from Lincolnview High School. She attributes her call to nursing to a seri-

ous farm accident she was involved in when she was 13-years-old. When I was 13, I was in a bad tractor accident, said Mohr. I had to have multiple surgeries. I was so impressed by the nurses that I decided that I wanted to be a nurse. Mohr chuckled about her professional decision because most of her family members didnt like hospitals. They were amazed when I said that I wanted to be a surgical nurse, said Mohr, whose husband, Greg, works at Eaton Corporation. The Van Wert County couple has two children, Kelsey, a senior at Lincolnview who is looking to train for occupational therapy, and a son, Ryan, who farms with her father and is a Beck seed salesman. Once I got into nurses training, I realized that this was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life, said Mohr. Being from a small area, I know a lot of the patients who come in here. Its a great feeling to be able to help them out but when you have to give some bad news, you have to keep in mind

that you are doing all of this to help people. In addition to certain commitment requirements, Mohr said that there are daily meetings considering the safety needs of each individual patient. Special consideration is given to each individual need in the event of threatening weather. I never think of staying home during bad weather; all I want to do is get in here to help the people. You want to feel like you are giving them the best care possible, whatever it takes, observed Mohr. Im so glad I did this, said Mohr, now the managing surgical nurse. Even though her responsibilities these days are more closely connected to details and leadership, she still tries to intermingle with patients when opportunities present themselves. I like to stay in touch with everything that goes on back there, said Mohr. I laugh and cry with the patients. Their care is what matters the most to me. I really care about each individual.

Cuts may be in store for Medicare

Fisher

WASHINGTON (AP) Cuts are on the table next year for Medicare Advantage plans, the Obama administration said Friday. The politically dicey move affecting a private insurance alternative highly popular with seniors immediately touched off an electionyear fight. The announcement gave new ammunition to Republican critics of President Barack Obamas health care law, while disappointing some Democratic senators who had called on the administration to hold rates steady. Insurers are still hoping to whittle back the cuts or dodge them altogether. Late Friday after financial markets closed, Medicare issued a 148page assessment of cost factors for the private plans next year. It included multiple variables, some moving in different directions, but analyst Matthew Eyles of Avalere Health estimated it would translate to a cut of 1.9 percent for 2015, a figure also cited by congressional staffers briefed on the proposal.

The CBO also predicted that after 2016, the health care law also will lower total working hours as many employees choose to cut back on work to qualify for federal insurance subsidies. Such a reduction would contribute to lower tax revenues and thus higher deficits, CBO director Doug Elmendorf said. That conclusion has become yet another piece of Republican ammunition against the law. White House officials say the revenue projections in the presidents budget wont be as pessimistic as CBOs, in part because they will factor in deficit reduction from their immigration overhaul plan. Under White House projections, deficits as a share of the economy will be below 2 percent after the 2023-2024 fiscal year. The CBO says they will rise to about 4 percent.

Fisher remembers a time during her childhood being in the studio of Richard Constable the great grandson of the famous British artist John Constable and watching him paint. She said at that point, she knew what she wanted to do. I also remember the wonderful smell of oil paint in my fathers studio and being able to watch and be a part of a portrait, Fisher reminisced. My art is inspired by my father who was a writer and painter and by my mother who inspired my love of nature. As a child, she watched in reverence as an older artist, who was losing his sight, created incredibly detailed etchings all his life his labor with love to complete his work. She said he could have become angry at life but he continued following his passion. Passion is an essential ingredient for my art, as well as love and commitment, Fisher explained. She said her favorite places to visit are woods, beside the sea and out west in the wide-open spaces. She most enjoys creating images from clay in sculpture or with mixed media, water color, prisma pencil and oil pastel. I am often my happiest alone with my brushes painting or working with clay on a new sculpture, she said. She has had some memorable responses to the colors she uses in her art and to the images and the story intertwined with the creation. Fisher has been greatly influenced by art from the Impressionist Movement and her favorite artist is Georgia OKeeffe. I love her enlarged images of flowers and her western scenes, Fisher said. I admire the artist herself as much as her work. With regard to her art, the best advice she has received was from a professor at OSU who encouraged her to be totally committed to her art and never stop creating.

Although we can argue that women shouldnt get drunk and convey mixed signals (try dissecting that the next day), they are functionally less able to resist the advances of a determined male. This presumes that men should be chivalrous toward women, a concept not much in vogue these days. But worse than an old-fashioned idea is a modern state that believes it should review with whom and how you conduct your sex life. Kathleen Parkers email address is kathleenparker@ washpost.com.

Mark | Lima
Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Percutaneous coronary intervention is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that uses a catheter to insert a small mesh tube called a stent to open up blood vessels in the heart with blockages caused by plaque buildup, a condition known as atherosclerosis. Using fluoroscopic X-ray imaging as a guide, the catheter is usually inserted into the blood vessel either in the groin or in the arm, then threaded through the blood vessels into the area of the heart where the coronary artery is blocked or narrowed. When the tip is in place, a balloon at the tip covered with the stent is inflated. The balloon simultaneously compresses the plaque and expands the stent. Once the plaque has been compressed and the stent is in place, the balloon is deflated and withdrawn, while the stent stays in the artery, holding it open to allow blood to flow freely.

Winners in the Weblos II Den were, from left, Jared Liebrecht, first place; Jack Sellman, second; and Eric Wieging, third; and Derek Weyrauch, Best in Show.

A heart attack stopped Mark. We got him running again.

After a nine-mile run with the cross-country team, Coach Mark suffered a massive heart attack. He was airlifted to Lima Memorial, where cardiologists found several coronary arteries dangerously blocked. Using minimally invasive surgery, surgeons installed stents to force the blocked arteries open. After his life-saving surgery, Mark knew he faced a long road ahead preparing for his next marathon. With Lima Memorials heart and vascular team in his corner, Mark takes it all in stride.

Lima Memorial Health Systems exceptional care for heart attack patients has made them one of only six healthcare facilities in Ohio to earn the American Heart Associations Mission: Lifeline Heart Attack Receiving Center accreditation.
