By Delphos Herald Staff
DELPHOS Group Publisher
Kirk Dougal from dhi MEDIA has
announced several changes to the
Delphos Herald intended to enhance
the newspaper for readers. Beginning
Saturday, the Delphos Herald and
the Times Bulletin will print a joint
Weekend Edition product to be deliv-
ered to homes and businesses on
Saturday and be available for single-
copy sales all weekend long.
After collecting hundreds of
readership surveys and spending
months on planning, we are thrilled
to offer our readers the changes and
enhancements they have asked for,
Dougal said. We are adding features,
bringing back some items that readers
have requested and packaged them all
in a fresh, new look.
The first item readers will notice
is the size of the newspaper as pages
are being added to provide informa-
tion and entertainment for the entire
weekend. Dougal pointed out what
those pages consist of depended upon
the responses from the readership
surveys.
While we expected the front page
and Local/State stories to be the most
widely read, we were surprised by
how avid our readers were about the
Opinion page, Dougal said. With
that in mind, we will provide a sec-
ond page of columns and letters to the
editor. Also, in addition to maintain-
ing our local sports coverage, we plan
on adding at least one more page of
sports which will allow us to provide
coverage of more sports from around
the state and nationally.
The Weekend Edition will also
include a second page with area and
statewide news, a new history page and
a return of the Real Estate page with
property transfers and stories. Dougal
also said while the Delphos Herald will
continue to focus its news report on
local stories first, more pages also mean
the opportunity to print more news and
entertainment articles from around the
country and the world.

Pain Doctor Discovers Blood Flow-
Busting Material Into Miracle Socks
for Diabetics and Foot Pain Sufferers!
Breakthrough circulation-boosting fibers improve blood flow, relieve swelling,
boost oxygen flow, and eliminate foot fatigue - naturally in as little as 5 minutes!
Being Diabetic, I never had pain-free feet - UNTILNOW!
PAD ADVERTSEMENT
What part of your swollen, tired,
or achy feet would you like to see
go-away?
If you suffer from poor circula-
tion, injury, swelling or any condi-
tion that leaves your feet fatigued
and sore, then read on to discover
the breakthrough that can change
your life.
Good news comes in the form of
a pain-busting microfiber that is
used to weave a circulation-boost-
ing sock, called Bambusa
TM
.
Better Blood Flow
The miracle sock is made from
a new, patented anion-technology
that is weaved into every strand of
thread used to make a Bambusa
TM
sock. This special micro-fiber
thread is made from revolutionary
bamboo charcoal to stimulate
blood flow andrevitalize feet.
When this material comes in con-
tact with body-heat it is proven to
release circulation-boosting ions.
The 3D-weave technology used
in the material has been compared
to infrared light therapy to help re-
vitalize stiff and sore muscles. The
manufacturer, who also makes a
back and wrist sleeve, says the ma-
terial provides almost instant relief
to any part of the body it touches,
making it ideal for diabetics, ath-
letes,inflammation, stiffness and
swelling.
Anne M. from California agrees.
Bambusa socks are absolutely the
most comfortable socks I have ever
worn! My feet are no longer fa-
tigued!
Therapy
Without A Prescription!
When the socks were pho-
tographed using a thermographic
imaging camera, results showed up
to a 17% to 22% increase in blood
flow. This helped to improvemus-
cle oxygenation and decrease foot
fatigue. The socks have been proven
to provide extended relief from
cold, swollen and fatigued feet.

of 30 years, Dr.
Jahner comments
on the 3D-weave
technology. In-
frared therapy has
been used for
years at medical
clinics to treat vascular and circula-
tory conditions. Physical therapists
use infrared therapy to speed re-
covery. Better blood flow equals
less pain. This microfiber works
much the same way.
"Circulatory dysfunction affects
MOST of the adult population in
the United States. Heart Disease,
Strokes and Diabetic conditions are
at epidemic levels; anything that
improves circulation improves cel-
lular health and vitality. I use the
Bambusa product myself and rec-
ommend it to my clients. It really
works! states Dr Jahner.
Results in Minutes?
John G. of California claims he
felt immediate results with his
tired, swollen feet. Without exag-
geration the relief was almost in-
stantaneous. It is like a heating pad
set to low and wrapped around my
calf. I will be replacing my entire
set of dress socks with these
socks!
Relief for Tired, Swollen Feet
Bambusa
TM
socks are not a med-
ical device or compression socks
because they dont restrict blood
flow. Utilizing the special negative-
anion technology, they comfortably
increase blood flow and oxygen to
tissues. My feet felt wonderful,
cool, and I never got that pins and
needles feeling anymore. I love my
Bambusa
TM
socks, says Nancy,
from NJ.
They are ideal for diabetics and
those suffering from neuropathy or
injury from repetitive use. Bam-
busa
TM
socks can also bring com-
fort to tired legs within minutes of
putting them on, energizing indi-
viduals who spend long hours on
their feet.
Goodbye to Pain and Numbness
Marilyn H. has suffered persist-
ent foot problems for years and no-
ticed fast results. The issue for me
was persistent numbness in my
toes - it was gone completely after
a few days of wearing these socks!
Being diabetic, I never had pain-
free feet - UNTILNOW!
I went out on the golf course
for 18 holes of golf, and when I got
home my feet werent swollen,
they werent sweating and my feet
didnt hurt, says Lou B. from New
York.
BENEFITS:
Increased blood flow and
oxygen
Reduced swelling and pain
Anti-microbial
Wicks away moisture
Increased range of motion
IDEALFOR:
Neuropathy
Raynaud's Syndrome
Cramping
Cold Feet
Tom from NJ reports, I suffer
from chronic foot cramps. My feet
were sore for days after the cramp-
ing. My wife gave me the Bam-
busa
TM
socks, I wore them, and the
foot cramps stopped. I replaced all
my socks with Bambusa
TM
. My
feet feel great now.

The infrared anions generated by the charcoal bamboo in-
crease blood flow and deliver oxygen to the tissues. After
wearing for only minutes there is an increase in temperature
due to the increased blood flow, resulting in improved com-
fort and reduced swelling. Twenty minutes after using the
anion-fiber infused socks, patient has better blood flow and
less numbness.

Make Strides Against
Breast Cancer hosts 5K
Information submitted
LIMA Making Strides teams across the
region are planning for their annual walk to
raise money to fight breast cancer.
The American Cancer Society is the
official sponsor of more birthdays and there
would be no better gift than to
have thousands of Allen and sur-
rounding county residents par-
ticipate in the Societys Making
Strides Against Breast Cancer
5K Walk on Oct. 18. This event
will help the Society finish the
fight against breast cancer.
The walks which take place
in nearly 300 communities across
the country - help to raise $60 million dol-
lars for the American Cancer Society each
year to save lives from breast cancer. The
dollars raised fund groundbreaking research
to find, prevent, treat and cure breast cancer;
ensure access to mammograms for women
who need them; and provide free resources
and support to the one in two newly diag-
nosed women who turn to the Society for
help and support, including transportation
and lodging during treatment.
Making Strides Against Breast Cancer
unites us to walk together as the most
powerful force to end breast cancer, said
Jennifer Mills, Making Strides Against
Breast Cancer Planning Committee Chair.
When you join Making Strides, you are
supporting the worlds leader in the fight
to end breast cancer. Last year $25,000
returned to the community in a grant and the
money you raise helps the American Cancer
Society do the most for people
with breast cancer today to end
the disease tomorrow.
The groups website is cur-
rently live and ready to accept
team registrations. Anyone
interested in forming a team
can check out veteran teams,
including St. Ritas Medical
Center, to learn what goes into
being a successful team!
Making Strides Against Breast Cancer is
the largest network of breast cancer aware-
ness events in the nation. Local sponsors
of this years walk include: First Federal
Bank, St. Ritas Medical Center, Tom Ahl,
HCF Management, Chief Supermarkets,
Arbys, Tim Hortons and Cold Stone
Creamery.

Nominations requested for
Agriculture Hall of Fame
Information submitted
LIMA The Lima/Allen
County Chamber of Commerce
is requesting nominations for
the second annual Allen County
Agriculture Hall of Fame. This
award honors men or women
who have been instrumental to
the success and excellence of
agriculture in Allen County, either
as a farmer or in an agriculturally-
related field. The purpose is to
pay tribute to those who have
brought distinction to themselves,
have made outstanding contri-
butions to their professions and
whose community involvement
has served as a stimulus to others.
With over $87 million in
annual crop and livestock sales,
production agriculture is Allen
Countys largest industry. Farms
in Allen County occupy over 75
percent of its land base.
So its only natural for the
Lima/Allen County Chamber
of Commerce to have a plat-
form from which they annu-
ally honor people who have
impacted agriculture locally,
reported Chamber Agri-Business
Committee Chair, Beth Seibert.
Applicants are being sought in
two categories: Producer/Breeder
and Agricultural Related.
Candidates chosen for nomi-
nation must have made their
major contribution to agriculture
primarily as a result of being
born, growing up, living in or
beginning their career in Allen
County. The goal is for honorees
to have at least 25 years of experi-
ence in agriculture. Nominations
can be made posthumously.
In 2013, Calvin Leimbach
and Edgar Begg were honored as
the programs first inductees.
The Chamber will honor the
awardee(s) during the upcoming
Wake Rattle and Roll breakfast
event at the Allen County Fair on
Aug. 22.
Award nomination forms can
be secured through the Chamber
office at 144 S. Main St. in Lima
or on their website at limacham-
ber.com. Deadline for submission
of applications is July 11.
Toledo election officials
facing ouster get hearing
TOLEDO (AP) Top election officials in one northern Ohio
county have had a chance to make a case for keeping their jobs.
Three members of the Lucas County board of elections in
Toledo along with its director are facing being ousted by Ohios
elections.
Secretary of State Jon Husted wants to remove them because
he says the board has been plagued by dysfunction.
A former state official appointed by Husted to evaluate the
board told the members and director at a hearing Thursday that
there was a long list of problems that forced the state to act.
The board has experienced several years of infighting and
accusations of wrongdoing. A series of missteps and squabbling
earlier this month delayed voting results for hours in the primary
election.
Tornado confirmed; rain spurs flooding threat
CEDARVILLE (AP)
Flood watches remained in
effect across much of eastern
and northern Ohio Thursday as
communities recovered from
several days of heavy rain and
storms, including a tornado
that destroyed several build-
ings in western Ohio.
The National Weather
Service predicted an end to the
precipitation and some falling
temperatures today and into
the weekend.
Preliminary information
indicates a tornado that struck
in Greene County had an esti-
mated maximum wind speed
of 145 mph, the weather ser-
vice said.
The Dayton Daily News
reported fire crews rescued
seven people from the base-
ment of a house that was flat-
tened near Cedarville. Officials
said everyone was OK.
You watch it on television,
and you see them on television
all the time, Cedarville police
Chief Chris Gillaugh told the
newspaper. But to see it and
actually know that its destroy-
ing places and things, you have
a whole other respect for it.
Communities under a flash
flood watch Thursday includ-
ed Coshocton, Guernsey and
Muskingum counties. Flood
watches also were issued for
several counties in southeast
and northern Ohio.
A flood watch was to remain
in place overnight tonight in
northeast Ohio, meteorologist
Frank Kieltyka said.
Flooded roads were report-
ed in Marion in north-central
Ohio, and several communities
in southern and central Ohio
reported hail.
High rain waters caused
yet another delay in return-
ing Ohios historic sternwheel
towboat to the Ohio River
Museum.
The W.P. Snyder, the
nations only remaining steam-
powered sternwheel towboat,
had been moored at the con-
fluence of the Muskingum
and Ohio rivers for about
a week after undergoing
repairs.
High waters from recent
storms prevented the boat
from getting under the Putnam
Bridge to the museum.
The Marietta Times report-
ed Thursday that the Ohio
History Connection moved
the boat to West Virginia
protectively amid weather
service predictions of water
levels up to 32 feet, three feet
below flood stage.
Ohio Insurance Director
Mary Taylor encouraged res-
idents and businesses with
weather damage to call their
insurance company as quick-
ly as possible and document
damage to cars and property
with photographs.
P&G distribution
center planned
for Union
COLUMBUS (AP)
Consumer products giant
Procter & Gamble will locate
a major distribution center
in southwest Ohio to serve
the Midwest, the company
announced Thursday.
The $89 million, 1 million-
square-foot facility is expect-
ed to open next winter in
Union, northwest of Dayton.
It is one of six vast new com-
plexes P&G is locating near
major U.S. population centers
and easily accessible road and
rail networks.
Spokesman Jeff LeRoy
said the goal is to reduce cor-
porate transportation costs
and get products to custom-
ers faster. LeRoy said the
program will reduce rail and
truck miles logged to carry
P&G products to stores by 7
percent.
Two Ohio companies have
been tapped to operate the
Union facility. Columbus-
based Exel, a supply-chain
logistics provider, and
Cincinnati-based Quality
Associates, a contract pack-
ager, are expected to employ
about 800 people at the site.
JobsOhio, the states priva-
tized economic development
office, said it recommended
state incentives in landing the
facility, details of which arent
yet available. Spokesman Matt
Englehart said the information
will be will be posted once a
final agreement is executed.
JobsOhio President and
Chief Investment Officer
John Minor said Ohio was in
competition with several other
locations for the facility.
The city of Union,
Montgomery County,
the Montgomery County
Transportation Improvement
District and the Dayton
Development Coalition coop-
erated with JobsOhio and the
administration of Gov. John
Kasich to land the site.
The Republican governor
said in a statement that hes
proud P&G chose to expand
in its home state.
Cincinnati-based P&G is
the worlds largest consumer
product maker. It makes such
well-known brands as Tide,
Pampers and Crest.

TERRY MATTINGLY
On
Religion
Worship this week at the
church of your choice.
As the members of the town board of
Greece, New York, prepared for business,
a local Catholic priest rose to offer a short
prayer.
Heavenly Father, you guide and govern
everything with order and love, said Father
John Forni of St. John the Evangelist parish.
Look upon this assembly of our town lead-
ers. ... May they always act in accordance with
your will, and may their decision be for the
well-being of all. The Lord bless you and keep
you. The Lord let his face shine upon you and
be gracious to you. The Lord look upon you
kindly and give you peace. Amen.
Perhaps it was the Father God refer-
ence, or even that final trinity of blessings,
but this 2004 prayer was listed among those
considered too sectarian during the Town of
Greece v. Galloway case that recently reached
the U.S. Supreme Court.
Most religious conservatives cheered the
high courts 5-4 ruling, which said local lead-
ers could continue to allow volunteers from
different faiths to open meetings with cer-
emonial prayers that included explicit doc-
trinal references to their traditions, even refer-
ences to Jesus Christ. The court majority also
said it was crucial that one faith not dominate
others and that prayers must not be allowed
to denigrate other viewpoints, to threaten
damnation or to preach conversion.
However, Justice Anthony Kennedy noted
for the majority: To hold that invocations
must be nonsectarian would force the leg-
islatures sponsoring prayers and the courts
deciding these cases to act as supervisors and
censors of religious speech, thus involving
government in religious matters to a far greater
degree than is the case under the towns cur-
rent practice of neither editing nor approving
prayers in advance nor criticizing their content
after the fact.
Kennedys bottom line: It is doubtful that
consensus could be reached as to what quali-
fies as a generic or nonsectarian prayer.
Even among church-state analysts who
disagreed on the decision, this theme -- that the
state must be denied the power to determine
which prayers are generic or safe enough --
emerged as crucial common ground.
Put bluntly, government has no right to
declare that the only God welcome in public
is a generic God, noted the Rev. R. Albert
Mohler Jr., president of the Southern Baptist
Theological Seminary, in online commentary.
That is a profoundly important constitutional
argument. For Christians, this is also a pro-
foundly important theological argument. We
do not believe that any generic God exists,
nor can we allow that some reference to a
generic God is a reference to the God of the
Bible.
On the liberal side of Baptist life, Bill
Leonard of the Wake Forest School of Divinity
openly challenged the belief that the state
should have the power to determine when
prayers cross the line and become oppressive.
What government official, he asked, will
judge when one persons prayerful convic-
tion becomes anothers damnation?
Labeling his perspective that of an old-
timey Baptist, Leonard said the big question
is why so many rush to embrace ceremonial
prayers in the first place.
There may be government-centered cere-
monies where the deity is addressed in various
forms, but lets not stoop to calling it prayer,
he said in online analysis. Prayer is talking
to God, not to the emperor, the president, the
congress, political parties, county commis-
sioners or people gathered for hearings about
potholes, zoning or sanitation. They may all
need prayer, but certainly not the ceremonial
kind.
Prayer is anything but ceremonial; it burns
in the soul, dances in the feet, erupts from the
gut. ... No, no, Mr. Justice. Government use
of prayer to tout privileged religious leaders
or their institutions trivializes faiths most
wondrous connection: a confrontation with the
Divine.
This complex debate is packed with
political and religious ironies, noted Francis
Beckwith, who teaches philosophy and
Church-State Studies at Baylor University.
Many liberals, especially unbelievers,
would like to ban public prayer altogether,
yet accept nonsectarian prayers as their own
kind of dont ask, dont tell policy, he
said. Meanwhile, some conservatives feel so
squeezed out of everything and so under
attack that they grudgingly accept watered-
down expressions of public faith.
In the end, he added, Christians -- on the
left or the right -- should worry about repre-
sentatives of the state trying to co-opt their
leaders and their symbols and their language to
serve some particular political cause or move-
ment. ... That temptation is always out there.

Paws to Consider
Are there really any cowboys?
I dont know which will be worse. The ride
you had coming here or the one youre gonna
have going home.
I said that to Randy moments after I eutha-
nized his wonder-
ful old Labrador,
Cocoa, and a darn
good cat named
Pooh, in the back-
seat of his car in
our parking lot. It
was a beautiful,
sunny May after-
noon and I had been
pretty brave, at least
for me, up until
that point. Randy
seemed to be han-
dling it well, too.
But when the
light hit his sun-
glasses just right,
and I could see what
was really going on underneath, I felt my
own facade quickly crumble. I did manage to
squeak out, Take care Randy, before making
a hasty retreat to the back door.
The decision to euthanize a pet has to be
the hardest thing an owner will ever confront. I
have always been impressed, in awe, actually,
of the courage it takes to do this. About a year
ago, I wrote a column about a cowboy named
Bill, his dog, Skeeter, and how brave and stoic
he was following Skeeters euthanasia.
In the column, I included a letter Bill wrote
to my wife shortly after the dogs death detail-
ing how much Skeeter had meant to him. That
is a treasure she will keep forever. A few weeks
later, Bill delivered another treasure - a pen-
cil drawing of Skeeter cooling off in a water
trough on a warm Montana day. It now hangs
in the hallway outside our office, a constant
reminder of the power of the human-animal
bond and why we do what we do.
Not long after Bill and Skeeters column
appeared in the newspaper, a little dog named
Buster sadly met the same fate. Unlike Bill, his
owner, Mark, was visibly upset by the experi-
ence and even apologized to my wife: Im
sorry Im not a cowboy.
While maybe not cowboy brave, Mark
was brave nonetheless by virtue of the fact he
scheduled a euthanasia appointment, drove to
our hospital and was there with and for Buster.
My wife and I have had to euthanize some of
our own pets but we controlled the moment.
To actually pick up a phone, choose a time and
take a pet on their final journey, that is courage
I can only imagine.
Another cowboy incident occurred a few
weeks ago. Although this involved neither
euthanasia nor act of bravery, it did involve a
tall, rugged-looking man who loved his pet.
My patient, a white, fluffy dog Ill call Max,
had what his owner thought was an injured rear
leg. It turned out to be a bit of a back problem,
but thats not crucial to this story.
The night before, I received an emergency
message on my phone. The answering system
tells me how long the message is before I
push the final button to hear the actual spoken
communication. One minute, twenty-seven
seconds is a long message. A message such
as this usually includes way too much informa-
tion, perhaps some repeated statements, some-
times a little swearing, and often a blurp on a
key number that can never be deciphered.
But this message contained none of that. It
was straight to the point - the dog was limping
slightly on one leg, his owner was concerned but
not overly, and wanted to know if we thought
this was an emergency or could wait until the
next day. His spoken message of no more than
20 seconds was followed by a hang-up sound -
except the phone wasnt really hung-up. What
went on for the next minute or so sounded a lot
like baby talk. Although I couldnt make out
a word he said, it seemed like he had quite an
engaging conversation with Max.
Standing in our exam room looking up at
the tall man, though I thought about it, I never
did mention the eavesdrop incident. I guess I
didnt want to embarrass him. But there was
nothing to be embarrassed about. He was sim-
ply a guy who held his dog in very high regard.
Veterinarians appreciate people like him.
Ive been doing this for quite some time
now and it never ceases to amaze me how
much our pets mean to us. And why not? They
are the human friends we wish we had and the
friends we wish we could be - no pretense,
no prejudice, just unconditional love. Its a
wonder how any of us can truly be a cowboy
when it comes to them. Certainly not me, nor
Mark, nor Randy and Im pretty sure, beneath
his cool, brave cowboy exterior, not even Bill.

Richard, Minster offense puts out Lady Jeffcats
By JIM METCALFE
Staff Writer
jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com
MINSTER Sometimes, a team
is just that much better than yours and
there is nothing one can do about it.
That is what Jeffersons fast-pitch
softball crew found out about Minster on
a cold, wet and windy Thursday after-
noon at Four Seasons Park in Minster.
The host Wildcats handed the visiting
Red and White Wildcats a 17-0 5-inning
shutout in Division IV Sectional action.
Minster ace Kayla Richard (20-
2) gave up one base-runner: junior
Samantha Branham on a leadoff infield
hit up the middle in the second. She
fanned nine in facing 16 batters.
They did everything well, includ-
ing all the little things; we knew what
we were facing coming into today and
theres no shame today. They pitched
well, hit the ball hard, played good
defense, communicated well, every-
thing, Jefferson coach Josiah Stober
explained. They have a quality pro-
gram. Richard is one of the best pitchers
weve seen all season. We didnt give it
to them; they earned it. I asked the girls
what they learned from this game; thats
what you take from this.
Minster coach Scott Robinson fig-
ured he had an angry team coming in.
We stewed a bit on our losses to
Bath and Van Wert, two games we felt
we had won but let them back in. We
talked about that and came out swing-
ing, he added. Hitting three home runs
in this weather was amazing. We just
found out Kayla was MAC Player of the
Year and she dominated. We expect this
from her. Its tournament time and the
girls didnt mess around.
Jefferson junior Samantha Branham slides back into rst to avoid be-
ing picked off by Minster ace Kayla Richard Thursday night at Min-
sters Four Seasons Park. Richard tossed a 1-hitter to pace the host
Wildcats past the Lady Jeffcats in Division IV Sectional softball ac-
tion. (Delphos Herald/Jim Metcalfe)

Encarnacion has 2 HRs, Blue Jays top Indians 4-2
By IAN HARRISON
Associated Press
TORONTO Edwin Encarnacion hit two
home runs, Juan Francisco also connected and
the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Cleveland
Indians 4-2 Thursday night to give man-
ager John Gibbons his 400th career win.
Encarnacion hit a solo homer in the
second off Danny Salazar and added a
2-run blast in the fifth off C.C. Lee. It
was his second multi-homer game of the
season and the 13th of his career.
Encarnacion finished 3-fo- 4, adding a
double in the third.
Two batters after Encarnacions homer in the
second, Francisco also went deep off Salazar
(1-4), who lost for the fourth time in seven starts.
David Murphy homered for the Indians,
whose streak of series victories was snapped at
three.
Blue Jays left-hander J.A. Happ allowed one
run and six hits in a season-high six innings.
Happ (2-1) walked two and struck out four.
Brett Cecil pitched the seventh, Steve Delabar
got two outs in the eighth and Aaron Loup got
the third. Casey Janssen finished for his second
save in two chances.
One night after setting season-highs with
15 runs and 22 hits, Cleveland struggled to
get anything going offensively. Yan Gomes
grounded into a double play with men at first
and second in the second and two Indians
grounded into fielders choices with two on
in the fourth.
Murphy got the Indians on the board
with his 1-out homer in the fifth. Michael
Bourn reached on a 2-out single and Nick
Swisher walked but Ryan Raburn ground-
ed out.
Raburn hit a leadoff double in the eighth
and Santana walked before Asdrubal Cabrera
and pinch-hitter Lonnie Chisenhall flied out.
Gomes chased Delabar with an RBI single
before Loup came on and struck out Murphy.
Salazar allowed two runs and five hits in
four innings, his second shortest outing of the
season. He walked two and struck out three.
Salazar is 0-6 with a 4.28 ERA in 10 career
road starts.
The Blue Jays used a single, a hit batter and
a walk to load the bases against Salazar in the
fourth but Melky Cabrera struck out to end the
threat.

Theres no excuse for rude behavior
Dear Annie:
I patronize a
restaurant where a
small group of older
men sit around and
drink coffee. They
are very loud and
often rude and seem
to enjoy gossiping.
For instance, should
an overweight
person walk in, these
men think nothing of
pointing it out. These
men arent exactly
small themselves. I
find their behavior
despicable. Am
I wrong to want
nothing to do with
them? -- Somewhere
in the USA
Dear USA: These
men are rude, but
they also could be
hard of hearing and
dont realize their
remarks are audible
to everyone. They
also may not care.
Yes, steer clear if you
cannot get them to
keep their opinions
to themselves.
Dear Annie:
I read the letter
from Fed Up
in Wisconsin,
whose 21-year-old
boyfriend chews
with his mouth open,
smacks his lips and
speaks with his
mouth full.
My niece had
the same problem.
I could barely
stomach sitting
at the same table
with her. Constant
attempts to correct
her were fruitless
until I got the idea to
secretly videotape a
meal. When she saw
the tape, she said,
Thats disgusting!
and asked for help in
changing her habits.

40 hours of clinical work. An EMT-paramedic is
required to complete a training program of 600
hours including 374 hours of clinical work.

certification are as follows:
EMT-BASIC - current national registry, 30 hour
refresher class or 40 hours of continuing education.
EMT-INTERMEDIATE - 60 hours of continu-
ing education.
EMT-PARAMEDIC - 92 hours of continuing
education.
The recertification for the state of Ohio is a must
every three years.

Run album and hit single.
Mr. Potato Head, to the dismay of anti-smoking activ-

GM recalls 2.7M more cars; industry on record pace
DETROIT (AP) General Motors
efforts to root out lingering safety prob-
lems across its wide range of cars and
trucks has produced another big recall
and highlights a sudden shift at GM
and throughout the industry toward issu-
ing recalls instead of avoiding them.
The nations largest automaker
announced a total of five recalls cover-
ing 2.7 million vehicles Thursday. The
biggest involves 2.4 million midsize
cars from model years 2004 to 2012
with brake lights that can fail.
GM acknowledged it knew about the
brake light problem as early as 2008.
That year it issued whats known as
a technical service bulletin, but that
only required dealers to offer to fix the
problem if the owner became aware of
it. Such bulletins typically cover prob-
lems an automaker considers minor,
and avoid the larger cost of a recall. But
a drivers safety could be jeopardized
by unknowingly operating a car with a
defective part.
In announcing the recall, GM said the
brake light problem has been tied to 13
accidents and two injuries.
GM launched a top-to-bottom safety
review after recalling 2.6 million small
cars earlier this year for faulty ignition
switches. GM knew about that problem
for at least a decade, issuing service
bulletins years before it started to recall
the cars. The switch problem, which can
unexpectedly shut down a cars engine,
has been linked to at least 13 deaths and
has prompted multiple investigations,
including one by the Justice Department.
Uneven global economy
a test for central banks
WASHINGTON (AP)
The global economy is plod-
ding ahead in fits and starts as
the largest countries struggle
to achieve consistent growth.
Europe is faltering again.
Japan is suddenly surging.
China is cooling. The U.S. is
strengthening.
In the background, central
banks are aiming to admin-
ister just the right amount of
stimulus not too much, not
too little. Their efforts have
yet to benefit many ordinary
people facing job shortages
and stagnant wages.
The unevenness of the
global recovery was thrown
into sharp relief Thursday,
when the 18 European nations
that use the euro reported
unexpectedly weak growth
for the years first three
months. A separate report
said Japans economy grew in
that same quarter at the fast-
est pace in nearly three years.
Fresh data from the United
States was mixed: Factory
output declined. But fewer
and fewer people are seek-
ing unemployment benefits,
a sign that solid hiring should
continue.
In China, weaker trade and
manufacturing have reduced
growth, and leaders there
foresee a further slowdown.
Most economists expect
the differing outcomes across
the worlds major economies
to add up to a modest expan-
sion this year.
Sept. 11 museum opens
to relatives and survivors
VERENA DOBNIK
Associated Press
NEW YORK Tears in her eyes, fire-
fighter widow Maureen Fanning emerged
Thursday from the new Sept. 11 museum
deep beneath ground zero, unable to bring
herself to look at all of it.
I just think it would be a little too
overwhelming today, she said, unsure
when she would return. Its a lot to digest,
to absorb. Not anytime soon.
Victims friends and relatives, rescue
workers and survivors of the terrorist
attack descended into the subterranean
space and revisited the tragedy as the
National Sept. 11 Memorial Museum was
dedicated by President Barack Obama as
a symbol that says of America: Nothing
can ever break us.
The museums artifacts range from the
monumental, like two of the huge fork-
shaped columns from the World Trade
Centers facade, to the intimate: a wedding
ring, a victims voice mail message.
Some relatives found the exhibits both
upsetting and inspiring.
Patricia Smiths visit came down to
one small object: the New York Police
Department shield her mother, Moira, was
wearing 12 years ago when she died help-
ing to evacuate the twin towers.
Patricia, 14, said she left feeling a new
level of connection to her mother. Still,
seeing that, reading the story that goes
along with it, even if I already know it, is
really upsetting, she said.
David Greenberg, who lost a dozen col-
leagues who met for breakfast at the trade
centers Windows on the World restaurant
on Sept. 11, called the museum breath-
taking, awe-inspiring and emotional.
You have your moments when there
can be solitude, moments when there
can be happiness, and a mixture of emo-
tions through the entire museum, said
Greenberg, who worked at an office near-
by.
The museum opens to the public
Wednesday, but many of those affected
most directly by 9/11 could start exploring
it Thursday.
Family members also paid their first
visits to a repository at the museum that
contains unidentified remains from the
disaster.
Monica Iken never received her hus-
bands body. But hes here. I know hes
here, Iken, a museum board member, said
after leaving the repository.
Many in the audience wiped away tears
during the dedication ceremony, which
revisited both the horror and the heroism
of Sept. 11, 2001, the day 19 al-Qaida
hijackers crashed four airliners into the
trade center, the Pentagon and a field in
Pennsylvania. Nearly 3,000 people were
killed in an attack that plunged the U.S.
into a decade of war in Afghanistan against
al-Qaidas Taliban protectors.
Authorities: Casey
Kasem found in
Washington state
ANTHONY McCARTNEY
Associated Press
SEATTLE Authorities
said ailing radio host Casey
Kasem was on vacation not
in danger when they found
him in Washington state this
week.
A Los Angeles judge on
Monday expressed concerns
about his whereabouts and
safety amid a dispute between
his wife and children from
another marriage.
But the sheriffs office
in Kitsap County, west of
Seattle, tracked him down the
next day. He was at a home
where he and his wife, Jean,
had been staying with long-
time friends, Deputy Scott
Wilson said.
We know he has an afflic-
tion, but he was alert, upright,
dressed, groomed and cogni-
zant of what was going on,
Wilson said. We see a lot
of at-risk adults and children.
This wasnt anywhere close to
being suspicious.
Kasem, 82, gained fame
with his radio music count-
down shows, American Top
40 and Caseys Top 40, and
he was the voice of Shaggy in
the cartoon Scooby Doo.
His children rejoiced after
days of uncertainty.
Grief and rage as Turkey
buries mine disaster dead
SUZAN FRASER
Associated Press
SOMA, Turkey With photos of their loved ones pinned
to their chests and chanting the names of lost miners, grieving
relatives laid their dead to rest in mass burials Thursday, as
gravediggers labored to make room for scores more victims of
Turkeys worst mining disaster.
The love of my life is gone, women wailed loudly, sway-
ing and singing improvised laments about the departed as
bodies were lowered, one by one, into the freshly dug graves.
Rescue teams recovered another nine victims, raising the
death toll to 283 from Tuesdays disaster, with at least 140
miners believed still trapped underground, according to gov-
ernment figures.
Rage blended with grief as revulsion over poor safety
conditions and what some perceived as government indiffer-
ence set off protests across Turkey. Its not an accident, its
murder, read a banner waved by trade unionists who marched
through the streets of Istanbul.
The disaster has stirred up new hostility toward Prime
Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogans government and thrown his
presidential ambitions off stride. Blackening his reputation
further, Turkish newspapers published a photograph Thursday
of one of Erdogans aides kicking a protester who was being
held on the ground by armed police.
At a graveyard in the mining town of Soma, where coal has
been the main industry for decades, mourners said they spent
their whole lives fearing a disaster like Tuesdays, in which an
explosion set off a deadly fire just as workers were preparing
for a shift change, trapping hundreds underground. No miner
has been brought out alive since before dawn Wednesday.

One change dictated by readers they have already
noticed is the new Comics & Puzzles page. The surveys
showed several of the comics had grown stale and were
no longer being read while others, new and old, were very
popular. Alternate comics were rotated into the newspaper
nearly three weeks ago and the staff has received many
positive responses. Also, one of the most requested items
was a Sudoku puzzle, so one was also added to the page.
We are very excited about all the changes, Dougal
concluded, especially because we had so much reader-
ship involvement with the decisions. We believe this
joint weekend product gives us the best opportunity
to provide them with the news and entertainment they
want.

money for this great cause. Cancer Survivor and member of

Their Road To Recovery program provides transportation
