“We’re draining the pools

the pool this year,” he said.
“The baby pool has a liner in
it that we basically just clean
and scrub but we’re paint-

doing some major plumbing

thing else that needs to be
painted.”
“Attendance has dropped

he continued. “This might be

For The Record

Condemned Utah killer
could face firing squad
By JENNIFER DOBNER
The Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY — A
condemned killer appears
headed for a date with death
in Utah that could see him
sit before a firing squad —
a development that would
likely re-ignite protests over
an antiquated, Old West-style
of justice.
At a hearing today, 3rd
District Judge Robin Reese
will consider whether to sign
a warrant of execution for
Ronnie Lee Gardner, who
killed a man during a failed
escape 25 years ago.
Under state law Gardner,
49, would be allowed to
decide whether he would be
killed by lethal injection or
be shot by a five-man team
of executioners firing from a
set of matched rifles, a rarely
used relic that harkens back
to Utah’s territorial history.
Of the 35 states with the
death penalty on the books,
Utah is the only one to use
the firing squad as a method
of execution since the U.S.
Supreme Court reinstated
capital punishment in 1976.
Two men have died in a
hail of bullets since that deci-
sion: Gary Gilmore, on Jan.
17, 1977 — after famously
uttering the last words, “Let’s
do it” — and John Albert
Taylor on Jan. 26, 1996.
Oklahoma is the only other
state that considers a firing
squad an acceptable option,
but by law would only use it
if lethal injection was deemed
unconstitutional. The state
has never used the method.

Ohio museum
seeks to put
area complaints
to music
By JEFFREY SHEBAN
The Columbus Dispatch
COLUMBUS (AP) —
Having a cow?
The Columbus Museum
of Art wants your beef put
to music.
The museum is sponsor-
ing a complaints choir — a
group of volunteer singers
working with a songwriter
to give voice to whatever is
bugging the populace.
A 25-person group will
perform an original song
— composed by museum
employee David Holm,
with lyrics submitted by
the muttering masses — at
7 p.m. June 5 in the First
Congregational Church, as
part of the Columbus Arts
Festival.
Jeff Sims, a videogra-
pher and another member
of the museum staff, will
document the effort for a
museum exhibit.
Gripes of all stripes can
be submitted online.
“We don’t know exactly
what we’re going to get,
but it’s a good challenge,”
said the 42-year-old Holm,
a lead singer, songwriter
and guitarist in the cen-
tral Ohio rock bands Total
Foxx and Ugly Stick.
“I just need to formulate
a song around what people
are going to turn in.”
Columbus marks the lat-
est city worldwide to field
such a choir.
The idea is credited to
Finnish artists Tellervo
Kalleinen and Oliver
Kochta-Kalleinen, who
thought the idea of put-
ting bellyaching to music
would be engaging.
Their inspiration was an
expression in their native
tongue: valituskuoro,
which literally means
“complaints choir” and is
used to describe situations
— not unlike talk radio
in the United States — in
which many people com-
plain at once.
The Finns offered the
concept to various troupes
and festivals in Europe.
The first to embrace it
was a group of performance
artists in Birmingham,
England, called the
Springhill Institute.
The 2005 rendition, a
cornucopia of consterna-
tion, has attracted a wide
following. A video clip of
the song has been viewed
more than 600,000 times
on YouTube.
The singers share a vari-
ety of complaints about
bad-hair days, traffic con-
gestion and rude co-work-

tive refrain:
Why does my computer

can’t the bus driver talk

“There is
something about
complaining —
when you sing
about it — that
almost makes
you feel happy.”
— Lisa Dent, a
ssociate curator for
contemporary art.
The Columbus
Museum of Art
joined in on the act:
Singers from Philadelphia,
Helsinki, Jerusalem and
Tokyo are all seen on
YouTube.
As with the Birmingham
selection, none of the tunes
features pleas for world
peace or calls for universal
health care.
A common thread is the
personal and often-trivial
nature of laments.
Choir members in
Chicago complain that
only tourists like deep-dish
pizza, while their counter-
parts in Budapest, Hungary,
demand to know why their
children’s clothing is never
washed in laundry-deter-
gent ads.
A singer in Jerusalem
kvetches about an aunt who
is pushing her to marry.
All the grumbling is sur-
prisingly uplifting.
“There is something
about complaining —
when you sing about it —
that almost makes you feel
happy,” said Lisa Dent,
associate curator for con-
temporary art at the muse-
um.
The Columbus institu-
tion represents the first
museum in North America
— and the second world-
wide — to sponsor a com-
plaints choir, said Dent,
who operated an art gal-
lery in San Francisco
before moving last year to
Columbus.
The 39-year-old has been
in touch with the Finnish
artists, who don’t directly
supervise the productions
but maintain artistic con-
trol through a web site with
guidelines.
Complaints, she said,
have been rolling in —
including:
I do not like broccoli.
Gum in my hair.
Stop texting and drive;
write a letter at home.
Why do people leave
empty milk cartons in the
refrigerator?
Holm doesn’t expect the
song to change the world
but hopes to provide good
therapy.
“Maybe people will feel
better when it’s done,”
he said. “They’ll let their
complaints out and have a
better summer.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
DEAR EDITOR:
“I pledge my head to clearer thinking, my
heart to greater loyalty, my hands to larger
service, and my health to better living, for
my club, my community, my country, and
my world.” The 4-H pledge sums up what
4-H teaches our youth. The 4-H motto “To
Make the Best Better,” combined with the
theory of “Learning by Doing,” guide youth
as they learn valuable skills to help them-
selves, their families and surrounding com-
munity.
4-H has been a part of my family for
four generations—as a 10-year member, I
belonged to two clubs where I showed sheep
and completed projects in conservation, sew-
ing and leadership. Later I became an advisor
for the club my grandma started, and both of
my children were 4-H members, who learned
much about community service through our
club’s activities. I served on the Defiance
County 4-H Council, and I am proud to be
a charter member of the Defiance County
4-H Endowment, which provides funds for
4-Hers to attend local, state, and national 4-H
leadership camps and experiences.
While interviewing for the superinten-
dency at Vantage Career Center, I was asked
“who is the most influential person in your
life?” Other than my parents, it is my 4-H
extension agent, Bill Rohrs. He served as the
Defiance County 4-H agent for the major-
ity of my 4-H years. He encouraged me to
participate in the county safety speaking
event when I was 10 years old, and I still
remember the thrill of winning second place
that evening. That accomplishment helped a
shy child begin to develop self-esteem and
put me on a competitive path which contin-
ues today.
Please vote YES for the 0.4 mill OSU
Extension levy. I know it’s the best $1 per
month I will spend to help develop the youth
in our community.
Superintendent Staci Kaufman,
Vantage Career Center
DEAR EDITOR:
Why vote for a 0.4-mill property tax for
Van Wert Co. Extension, 4-H and Agriculture
to be more specific? Agriculture is the prime
industry in the county and will be for the fore-
seeable future probably more important in the
future than the immediate past.
Extension provides education and timely
warning as to disease and insect problems.
A 1 percent yield increase or decrease in
soybean and corn yield results in an increase
or decrease of $864,000 more or less income

“Don’t pay any attention to the critics — don’t even ignore them.”
— Samuel Goldwyn, American movie producer (1879-1974)
County-wide. With potential disease and
insect problems that exist, a few hours warn-
ing could be critical.
Currently animal agriculture is important
and there are issues within that area that need
dealt with to meet some of the challenges of
that industry. Extension can be a help and is
involved.
Extension also provides pesticide applica-
tor training and licensing. If we do not have
a local office we may need to travel further
to get the training that we need every three
years.
What this is really about is local control
verses State or Federal control. The closer
to home the control is the better. The adage
the squeaky wheel gets the grease is true, the
further away the lube point the harder it is to
get our grease to it.
Based on my calculations it will cost me
12.6 cents per $1,000 of tax value that is a
little more than current Senior Citizens tax
(12.4) and little less than current Library tax
(13.5). This is a five year levy, not a perma-
nent tax. I will support the levy and I would
urge you to also support the levy.
We must be frugal, but we cannot save our-
selves into prosperity. We must invest to pros-
per. Leadership is a good investment (4-H).
Charles Profit,
Van Wert
DEAR EDITOR:
To the Van Wert County Residents:
I have been a 4-H Volunteer for over ten
years and an advisor for the Pathfinders of
Delphos for 4 years. I am asking for your
support for the OSU Extension/4-H Levy on
May 4. Since I have been involved with the
4-H, I have seen many 4-H members grow
in knowledge, communication skills, respon-
sibility and also having fun in doing it. The
children and young adults, since the age is
from Cloverbud, age 6, to high school age
18, continue to learn project books as sew-
ing, creative writing, rockets, cooking, and
taking care of their livestock after school is
out for the summer. This is a great learning
experience and something to keep their minds
growing with education even after the school
year has ended.
I ask you to consider to vote, yes for this
levy because these children and young adults
are the extension of our future.
Sincerely,
Susan Hempfling,
Pathfinders of Delphos
4-H Advisor

Report says health care will
cover more, cost more
By RICARDO
ALONSO-ZALDIVAR
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — “During 2010-2019, how-
President Barack Obama’s
health care overhaul law is
getting a mixed verdict in
the first comprehensive look
by neutral experts: More
Americans will be covered,
but costs are also going up.
Economic experts at the
Health and Human Services
Department concluded in a
report issued Thursday that
the health care remake will
achieve Obama’s aim of
expanding health insurance
— adding 34 million to the
coverage rolls.
But the analysis also found
that the law falls short of the
president’s twin goal of con-
trolling runaway costs, raising
projected spending by about
1 percent over 10 years. That
increase could get bigger, since
Medicare cuts in the law may
be unrealistic and unsustain-
able, the report warned.
It’s a worrisome assess-
ment for Democrats.
In particular, concerns
about Medicare could become
a major political liability in
the midterm elections. The
report projected that Medicare
cuts could drive about 15 per-
cent of hospitals and other
institutional providers into the
red, “possibly jeopardizing
access” to care for seniors.
The report from Medicare’s
Office of the Actuary carried
a disclaimer saying it does not
represent the official position
of the Obama administration.
White House officials have
repeatedly complained that
such analyses have been too
pessimistic and lowball the
law’s potential to achieve
savings.
The report acknowl-
edged that some of the cost-
control measures in the bill
— Medicare cuts, a tax on
high-cost insurance and a
commission to seek ongoing
Medicare savings — could
SEC staffers watched porn as economy crashed
By DANIEL WAGNER
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Senior
staffers at the Securities and
Exchange Commission spent
hours surfing pornographic
websites on government-
issued computers while they
were being paid to police the
financial system, an agency
watchdog says.
The SEC’s inspector gen-
eral conducted 33 probes of
employees looking at explicit
images in the past five years,
according to a memo obtained
by The Associated Press.
The memo says 31 of
those probes occurred in the
2 1/2 years since the financial
system teetered and nearly
crashed.
The staffers’ behavior vio-
lated government-wide ethics
rules, it says.
It was written by SEC
Inspector General David
Kotz in response to a request
from Sen. Charles Grassley,
R-Iowa.
The memo was first
reported Thursday evening by
ABC News. It summarizes
past inspector general probes
and reports some shocking
findings:

Dems set showdown vote on Wall Street bill
By DAVID ESPO

The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — of Nevada. That drew a quick
Declaring themselves short
of patience, Democrats set
an initial showdown vote for
next Monday on legislation
to clamp new regulations on
the financial industry while
Republicans insisted on more
bargaining. President Barack
Obama admonished Wall
Street leaders “to join us
instead of fighting us” to pre-
vent a future national financial
collapse.
The test vote loomed in
an election-year climate, with
lawmakers ready to campaign
this summer on the results
of this legislation — written
in reaction to the economic
crisis that threw the nation
into recession — as well as
the hard-fought health care

increases beyond 2020. But it
held out little hope for prog-
ress in the first decade.
ever, these effects would be
outweighed by the increased
costs associated with the
expansions of health insur-
ance coverage,” wrote Richard
S. Foster, Medicare’s chief
actuary. “Also, the longer-
term viability of the Medicare
... reductions is doubtful.”
Foster’s office is responsible
for long-range costs estimates.
Republicans said the find-
ings validate their concerns
about Obama’s 10-year, near-
ly $1 trillion plan to remake
the nation’s health care sys-
tem.
“A trillion dollars gets
spent, and it’s no surprise —
health care costs are going to
go up,” said Rep. Dave Camp,
R-Mich., a leading Republican
on health care issues. Camp
added that he’s concerned the
Medicare cuts will undermine
care for seniors.
In a statement, HHS
Secretary Kathleen Sebelius
sought to highlight some pos-
itive findings for seniors. For
example, the report concluded
that Medicare monthly pre-
miums would be lower than
otherwise expected, due to the
spending reductions.
“The Affordable Care Act
will improve the health care
system for all Americans, and
we will continue our work to
quickly and carefully imple-
ment the new law,” the state-
ment said.
Passed by a divided
Congress after a year of bitter
partisan debate, the law would
create new health insurance
markets for individuals and
small businesses. Starting in
2014, most Americans would
be required to carry health
insurance except in cases of
financial hardship. Tax cred-
its would help many middle-
class households pay their
premiums, while Medicaid
would pick up more low-
ters spent up to eight hours a
day looking at and download-
ing pornography. When he
ran out of hard drive space,
he burned the files to CDs
or DVDs, which he kept in
boxes around his office. He
agreed to resign, an earlier
watchdog report said.
— An accountant was
blocked more than 16,000
times in a month from visiting
websites classified as “Sex”
or “Pornography.” Yet he still
managed to amass a collec-
tion of “very graphic” mate-
rial on his hard drive by using
Google images to bypass the
SEC’s internal filter, accord-
ing to an earlier report from
the inspector general. The
accountant refused to testify
in his defense, and received a
14-day suspension.
— Seventeen of the
employees were “at a senior
level,” earning salaries of up
to $222,418.
— The number of cases
jumped from two in 2007 to
16 in 2008. The cracks in
the financial system emerged
in mid-2007 and spread into
full-blown panic by the fall
of 2008.
California Rep. Darrell

overhaul.
“The time for stalling
is over,” declared Senate
Democratic leader Harry Reid
response from the Republican
leader, Mitch McConnell
of Kentucky: “I don’t think
bipartisanship is a waste of
time.”
Without an accord with the
GOP, which was blocking the
start of formal debate on the
bill, Democrats would need
60 votes to move ahead in the
Senate. Despite some signs of
wavering, all 41 Republicans
in the 100-member Senate
remained publicly opposed on
Thursday.
Reid was eager to test the
Republican resolve, even as
bipartisan negotiations con-
tinued. Reid conceded that
the timetable for a vote could
change if the talks bear fruit.

income people. Insurers
would be required to accept
all applicants, regardless of
their health.
The U.S. spends $2.5 tril-
lion a year on health care,
far more per person than any
other developed nation, and
for results that aren’t clearly
better when compared to more
frugal countries. At the out-
set of the health care debate
last year, Obama held out the
hope that by bending the cost
curve down, the U.S. could
cover all its citizens for about
what the nation would spend
absent any changes.
The report found that the
president’s law missed the
mark, although not by much.
The overhaul will increase
national health care spending
by $311 billion from 2010-
2019, or nine-tenths of 1 per-
cent. To put that in perspec-
tive, total health care spending
during the decade is estimated
to surpass $35 trillion.
Administration officials
argue the increase is a bar-
gain price for guaranteeing
coverage to 95 percent of
Americans. They also point
out that the law will decrease
the federal deficit by $143 bil-
lion over the 10-year period.
The report’s most sober
assessments concerned
Medicare.
In addition to flagging
provider cuts as potentially
unsustainable, the report pro-
jected that reductions in pay-
ments to private Medicare
Advantage plans would trig-
ger an exodus from the pop-
ular alternative. Enrollment
would plummet by about 50
percent. Seniors leaving the
private plans would still have
health insurance under tra-
ditional Medicare, but many
might face higher out-of-
pocket costs.
In another flashing yellow
light, the report warned that a
new voluntary long-term care
insurance program created
under the law faces “a very
serious risk” of insolvency.
Reform, said it was “disturb-
ing that high-ranking officials
within the SEC were spend-
ing more time looking at porn
than taking action to help
stave off the events that put
our nation’s economy on the
brink of collapse.”
He said in a statement that
SEC officials “were preoccu-
pied with other distractions”
when they should have been
overseeing the growing prob-
lems in the financial system.
An SEC spokesman
declined to comment Thursday
night.
About 16 percent of men
with Internet access at work
admit to looking at online
porn while at the office,
according to a 2006 survey
by Websense Inc.
Former SEC spokes-
man Michael Robinson said
he shares the public’s out-
rage about SEC staffers who
enjoyed porn on the taxpayer
dime when they were sup-
posed to be keeping the mar-
kets safe.
“That kind of behav-
ior is just intolerable and
atrocious,” said Robinson,
now with Levick Strategic
Communications. He said he
expects SEC Chairman Mary
Schapiro and her team are
“very focused on” the issue.
Democrats were determined
to portray Republicans as
Wall Street allies and put them
through test votes until enough
senators agreed to proceed.
Emerging from a late after-
noon meeting with Banking
Committee Chairman
Christopher Dodd, the com-
mittee’s top Republican,
Richard Shelby, said chanc-
es of an agreement before
Monday’s vote were “prob-
ably not probable.” He pre-
dicted Republicans would
vote as a bloc to put off action
on the bill.
At the same time, senior
Democrats signaled Thursday
they hope to ease day-old
restrictions a Senate commit-
tee slapped on the trading of
financial derivatives, the com-
plex investments blamed as
a contributing factor to the
economic near-meltdown of
2008.

Blue Jays rock Big Green 12-2
By JIM METCALFE
The Delphos Herald
jmetcalfe@delpho-
sherald.com
OTTOVILLE — St. John’s
has been hitting the cover off
the baseball for most of the
2010 baseball season.
The Blue Jays continued
that trend Thursday night,
rocking Ottoville 12-2 in
Ottoville.
Not only did the
visitors compile 12
hits against three Big
Green (4-10) pitchers
but added nine steals.
“We have both: a
lot of power and a lot of
speed. They are a great com-
plement,” Jays coach Dan
Metzger said. “We have been
hitting the ball well and did
so tonight. When you can get
people on base, that pressures
the defense, especially when
you have the speed we can
out out there. A pitcher can’t
really dig in there because
he has to be worried about
being quick to the plate, so
our hitters are getting better
pitches to drive. It also gets a
defense moving, so that opens
up holes in the defense; we’re
finding them.”
The Jays (7-8) started it
right off the bat, with Tanner
Calvelage (2-for-4, 3 runs, 2
steals) leading off with a bloop
single to left center. He stole
second, went to third on a
sacrifice bunt by Ty Bergfeld
(2-for-3, 2 runs) and came
home on Jordan Leininger’s
slow bouncer to short, with
Calvelage easily beating
the throw home from Matt
Honigford. Leininger stole

Jefferson’s offense had been
in a bit of a lull lately but that
disappeared for at least a night
Thursday as the Wildcats
exploded for 11 hits in a 10-4
Northwest Conference vic-

Jordan Jettinghoff was
the big bat, going 3-for-4 —
including a home run and a
double — with three runs bat-
ted in, while Austin Teeters
went 2-for-4 (RBI).
Also getting RBIs were
Ben Babcock, Curtis Miller,
Austin Clarkson, Jordan Rode
and Nick Cook.
Tony George was the
recipient, getting the victo-
ry on the mound with five
innings of work (3 strikeouts,
4 walks). Nik Moore scored
three times.
Losing pitcher Aaron
Swaney (3 Ks, 5 walks) went
2-for-4 at the plate (1 RBI),

COLLEGE BASKETBALL
INDIANAPOLIS — The NCAA
announced a 14-year, $10.8 bil-
lion deal with CBS and Turner
Broadcasting that will begin with
an expanded men’s basketball
tournament next March. But
instead of jumping to a 96-team
field, a possibility that drew criti-
cism from bracket-obsessed fans
to coaches, the NCAA plans to
expand by only three teams, from
65 to 68.

second. An out later, Chris
Pohlman (2-for-3) ripped
a run-scoring hit to left cen-
ter. He stole a base (where
Honigford was banged up and
left the game the next inning)
and came home as Mitchell
MacLennan blasted a 2-run
round-tripper to left center for
a 4-0 lead. Austin Vogt walked
and Nate Webb doubled to left
center, chasing Ottoville starter
Tyler Turnwald
and bringing in
Bryan Hohlbein.
He got the final
out.
“They jumped
on us early. They
have such an athletic
team that hits the ball and
runs well,” Ottoville coach
Tony Castronova observed.
“We’ve got so many fresh-
men and sophomores on our
roster and we’re struggling
with that right now. We’ll
keep plugging away.”
The outburst gave Vogt
(1-3; 5 innings, 3 hits, 2
earned runs, 3 walks, 5 Ks)
plenty of early support.
The Jays continued in the
second frame. Calvelage beat
out an infield hit to third
and burgled second. Bergfeld
beat out a running bunt, put-
ting runners on the corners
and stole second. Both came
home courtesy of Leininger’s
2-run slash to center for a 6-0
edge. He was caught steal-
ing by catcher Aaron Wehri.
An out later, C. Pohlman got
aboard on an infield single
off the glove of second sack-
er Craig Odenweller but was
left stranded.
Wehri grounded a single
into right to lead off the

Big Green half and moved
to second an out later on a
walk to Turnwald. He went
to third as Kyle Karhoff
forced Turnwald at second
but remained there as Vogt
retired Hohlbein.
The Jays put a 6 spot on
the board in the third, send-
ing 10 to the dish. With one
down, Webb got aboard via
an error and swiped second.
Curtis Geise walked.
Calvelage got on via
an outfield error, scor-
ing Webb; Geise and
Calvelage ended up
at third and second
after the throw home.
Bergfeld ripped a hit
to left to plate Geise and
put runners on the corners.
On a double steal, Bergfeld
swiped second and Calvelage
took home. Bergfeld scored
as Leininger rocked a triple
to right field. J. Pohlman
walked to end Hohlbein’s
stint on the mound and bring
in lefty Derek Schimmoeller.
Pohlman stole second. An out
later, both runners touched
home plate via a ground knock
into left by MacLennan.
That ended the Jays’
scoring as Schimmoeller
squelched the two base-run-
ners the Jays had after that,
both on errors: Geise with
one down in the fourth and
pinch-hitter Ryan Edelbrock
with two down in the fifth.
Meantime, the Big Green
tried to respond in the third
as Greg Rue led off with a hit
to right. A wild pitch moved
him up. Two outs hence,
Jordan Schimmoeller walked
but Vogt again got out of the
frame unscathed.

Panthers score late, win

PAULDING — Paulding
score a run in the bottom of
the seventh frame to down
visiting Lincolnview 4-3 in
Northwest Conference soft-
ball action Thursday.
In the seventh inning,
Paulding got the leadoff bat-
ter on thanks to an infield
error, moved up to second on
a groundout to third and then
scored on a single to right
center.
The run — with one out
— handed right-hander Kela
Fries (6 1/3 innings, 9 hits, 4
runs, 2 earned, 2 walks, 2 Ks)
the loss and dropped the Lady
Lancers to 11-5 (3-2 NWC).
K. Beck outdueled her,
going the distance in ced-
ing seven hits and three runs
(1 earned), fanning five and
walking none.
Jodie Doner went 3-for-4
for the visitors, scoring twice.
J. Vance went 2-for-2 for
the Lady Panthers (8-5, 5-0
NWC), including a game-
winning hit, as did Kayla
Owens. Shelby Erford went
2-for-4.
“We hit the ball hard all
night but seemed to be right at
people each time we needed
a big hit,” Lincolnview coach
Dave Evans noted. “We need
to continue to work on our
defense to give ourselves a bet-
ter chance in the big games.”

GLANDORF — Kalida’s
baseball team got out very
quickly — 8-0 after the first
two innings — and held off
Ottawa-Glandorf 10-7 in
non-league action Thursday
at Titan Field.
Nick Guisinger and Tyler
Verhoff each had a pair of
hits for the visiting Wildcats
(6-5) and Paul Utendorf had

later, Cody DeLong doubled

in. A wild pitch moved him
up to third, from where he
scored thanks to a bounce-out
to second by J. Schmmoeller.
However, Vogt fanned Wehri

Talbot helps Indians
top Twins 8-1
By DAVE CAMPBELL
The Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS — The
Cleveland Indians needed
a game like this, with their
lagging offense finally keep-
ing up with the pitching and
defense.
Mitch Talbot set the bar
high and Andy Marte
and his teammates were
up to the task.
Talbot turned in
another strong start,
Marte homered and
drove in three runs and
the Indians finally got
some hits in an 8-1 victory
over the Minnesota Twins on
Thursday.
Cleveland came into the
game last in the league in bat-
ting average and slugging per-
centage, raising those marks to
.222 and .351 after hitting six
doubles — five off Minnesota
starter Scott Baker — and
matching a season high with
eight runs.
“I know that at the end of
the season that the runs are
going to be there and that
our offense is going to be
there,” manager Manny Acta
said, adding: “I just want to
see quality at-bats from all the
guys and it’ll happen because
you just can’t have that many
guys for the whole year strug-
gle.”
Talbot (2-1) followed
his first major-league win, a
complete game last weekend
against the Chicago White
Sox, with six impressive
innings. He held the Twins to
two hits and no earned runs
to keep them from sweeping
the 3-game series. He walked
three and struck out three with
help from an effective chan-
geup.
The Indians turned four
double plays, highlighted by
shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera’s
diving stop of a sharp ground-
er by Michael Cuddyer to turn
two and end the seventh inning.
Marte hit a 2-run homer to left
in the fourth inning and a
sinking RBI single to center
during a 3-run sixth.
Rolen sparks Reds’ rally
in 8-5 win over Dodgers
The Associated Press
CINCINNATI — Mike
Leake was pretty laid-back for
a guy who had just earned his
first professional win.
The Cincinnati rookie last-
ed seven innings and benefited
from a go-ahead, 2-run double
by Scott Rolen late in the
Reds’ 8-5 victory over the Los
Angeles Dodgers on Thursday
night.
Drafted eighth
overall out of Arizona
State last year, Leake
was making his third
pro start — all in the
major leagues this season. He
became the first Cincinnati
starter to win in 2010 but his
postgame demeanor suggested
somebody waiting for a bus.
“Not a lot gets to me,”
said the 22-year-old pitcher,
barely old enough to drink the
beer his teammates showered
him with in celebration. “I’m
excited. I just don’t show it
too much. It feels good, not
necessarily for my first one,
but for the starters and the
team.”
Reds manager Dusty Baker
was happy to see a starter last
that long after his first two in
the series couldn’t get through
the sixth.
“Leake gave us every-
thing you can ask for and we
got some big runs late in the
game,” Baker said.
Jay Bruce hit a 2-run homer
in the sixth for the Reds, who
came from behind twice for
their seventh victory of the
year.
Dodgers leftfielder Manny
Ramirez left in the sixth after
straining his right calf while
running out a single. Los
Angeles manager Joe Torre
said the slugger would be out
at least two days and possibly
the entire weekend series at
Washington.
Andre Ethier and pinch-
hitter Garret Anderson each
had a 2-run homer for Los
Angeles.
The Dodgers were leading
5-4 when Rolen smacked a
2-run double off the left-center
wall with two outs in the sev-
enth. Drew Stubbs and Ryan
Hanigan added run-scoring
www.delphosherald.com
“When you get runs and
get ahead, it makes your job a
lot easier — a lot less stress,”
said Talbot, who spent last
season in the minors, hindered
by a sprained right elbow.
This was only his fourth
major-league start.
The Indians were happy to
leave with a 7-8 record with
all their problems at the
plate — especially Marte,
who was 1-for-8 entering
the game but played in
place of sputtering third
baseman Jhonny Peralta.
Russell Branyan dou-
bled and drove in two
runs and Luis Valbuena also
hit an RBI double.
Baker (2-2) gave up 10 hits,
the first such time since exactly
a year ago in a game at Boston
against the Red Sox. He was
hurt by some well-placed hits,
starting with back-to-back
ground-rule doubles — one
down each line — by Cabrera
and Grady Sizemore to start
the game. Baker allowed six
runs before his day was done,
allowing five straight 1-out
hits in the sixth while a 2-run
Indians’ lead grew to 5-1.
The Twins have won all
five series this year, though
they had only four extra-base
hits while taking two out of
three games from the Indians
and finishing 6-3 on their first
homestand at Target Field.
“We’re not exactly killing
it right now, but we’ve been
catching the ball and throwing
it over to this point,” manager
Ron Gardenhire said. “We
have a good offense. We’ll
be fine.”
The weather was a winner,
too, with nary a delay or post-
ponement and mostly sunny
skies at the open-air ballpark.
The Twins won’t play here
again until May 3.
Notes: Twins 3B Nick Punto
missed his sixth straight game
because of a sore groin muscle. ...
Twins rookie Drew Butera started
for Joe Mauer for only the second
time in 16 games, throwing out
Marte trying to steal in the sixth
and getting a single in the third
for his first major-league hit. He’s
the son of former Twins catcher
Sal Butera.

batters to the plate against
Los Angeles relievers Hong-
Chih Kuo (0-1) and Ronald

Leake (1-0) allowed eight
hits and five runs with one

Francisco Cordero pitched
the ninth for his sixth save in
seven opportunities.
Dodgers starter Vicente
Padilla gave up eight
hits and four runs —
three earned. He didn’t
walk anybody and fin-
ished with eight strike-
outs, giving him 1,000

fastballs with changeups reg-
istering as low as 53 mph on
the Great American Ball Park
radar gun, including one in
the sixth inning that Bruce
hit into the visitors’ bullpen
for his third home run of the
season, giving the Reds a brief
4-3 lead.
Matt Kemp singled in the
first inning to extend his hit-
ting streak to 11 games and
Ethier followed with his fifth
home run of the season and
second in two nights.
Chris Dickerson led off the
bottom half with an infield
single, moved to third on
Orlando Cabrera’s chopper
over the head of third base-
man Casey Blake and scored
on Joey Votto’s sacrifice fly
down the left-field line that
Ramirez tracked down with a
lunging catch after a long run.
The Dodgers got that run
back in the fifth on Blake
DeWitt’s leadoff single and
a 2-out RBI single by Rafael
Furcal.
After the Reds took their
4-3 lead, Anderson got it back
for Los Angeles by lining a
2-run drive into the right-field
seats in the seventh. The homer
was his first since last Sept. 21
for Atlanta at New York.
Notes: Stubbs batted some-
where other than leadoff for the
first time in 49 career starts.
Stubbs, who went into the game
hitless in his last 19 at-bats, flied
out in the first before singling in
the fifth while batting seventh. ...

and recalled RHP Carlos Fisher.

Bradford, Tebow and the NBA PLAYOFFS

Big 12 lead NFL draft

By BARRY WILNER
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Heismans
and hoopla accompanied Sam
Bradford and Tim Tebow
during their college careers.
Now, the quarterbacks share
something else heading into
the NFL: first-round status in
the draft.
For Bradford, it was a mat-
ter of whether he would go at
the top of the first prime-time
draft Thursday night. He did,
to the St. Louis Rams.
For Tebow, it was a ques-
tion of how deep in the pro-
ceedings his name would be
called, with many predicting
it would not happen until the
second round. The Denver
Broncos ended the intrigue
at No. 25 after trading with
Baltimore to get that spot.
Celebration, drama and a
touch of mystery at Radio City
Music Hall: The Rockettes
would have loved this show.
“I want to be a great quar-
terback,” said Tebow, who
helped Florida win two nation-
al championships, earning
the 2007 Heisman. “For the
next few years, my mindset is
going to be to repay (Denver
coach Josh McDaniels) for
what he did for me, believing
in me. Just like it was when
I was at Florida. My big-
gest joy was doing things for
Coach (Urban) Meyer, win-
ning championships, being
able to help him.”
At least Tebow goes to a
team with some talent around
him. Bradford, the 2008
Heisman winner who missed
all but three games in 2009
after right shoulder surgery, is
saddled with the Rams, who
scored 175 points on the way
to a 1-15 record last year.
He’s not complaining.
“You have no idea how
excited I am just to have
the opportunity to come to
St. Louis and play my NFL
career there,” Bradford said.
“It’s just a blessing and I
can’t wait to get there and get
to work.”
While Tebow figures to
serve an apprenticeship in
Denver as he adapts to a
pro-style offense, Bradford
almost certainly will start for
the Rams. Their most accom-
plished quarterback is A.J.
Feeley.
“There’s no preconceived
notion or game plan with
Sam right now,” coach Steve
Spagnuolo said. “I think
we’ve put ourselves in a situ-
ation that we can go either
way. We’ll do what’s best for
him and what’s best for our
team.”
What was best for most
teams in the first round was
raiding the Big 12, with
Oklahoma leading the way
with four drafted players.
Starting with Bradford,
five of the top six picks were
from the Big 12 — three of
them Sooners. In all, nine
first-rounders came from the
conference.
“That’s pretty cool because
I know the Big 12 has been
getting a lot of slack lately,”
said Bradford. “People for
some reason didn’t think that
we played much football in the
Big 12 and sure didn’t think
we played much defense, so
for two defensive tackles to
go in the first three picks is a
credit to the Big 12.”
Bradford was immediately
followed Thursday night by
defensive tackle Ndamukong
Suh of Nebraska, the AP
Player of the Year; DT
Gerald McCoy and OT Trent
Williams, Bradford’s team-
mates with the Sooners.
And what about the
Sooners’ run at the top of the
festivities?
“It’s insane isn’t it?”
McCoy asked with a huge
smile. “We can’t play foot-
ball in the Big 12 but the first
four picks went out the Big
12? Mmmmm — three of
’em from Oklahoma, by the
way.”
Suh is considered the best
defensive tackle prospect in
more than a decade. He won
the Lombardi, Bednarik and
Nagurski trophies in 2009 and
comes off a dominant Big 12
title game in which he had 12
tackles with 4 1/2 sacks.
“He made it an easy pick
for us,” Lions coach Jim
Schwartz said. “He’s not
just a one-year wonder. He’s
strong. He’s good versus the
run. He’s good versus the
pass. He’s very intelligent.”
McCoy should boost a
Tampa defense that once was
feared but flopped last season
when it yielded 400 points.
He displayed his Buccaneers
jersey to the crowd and
pumped his fist high in the air
as “Pirates of the Caribbean”
played on the loudspeakers.
The Big 12 bonanza kept
rolling when Washington took
Williams, an All-American,
to fill a huge hole at tackle
left by the retirement of Chris
Samuels. Williams engulfed
commissioner Roger Goodell
in a hefty bear hug onstage.
Tennessee safety Eric
Berry, also an All-American,
went fifth to Kansas City,
breaking the Big 12 strangle-
hold. Berry, noted for his ver-
satility, also has the potential
to play cornerback.
Then it was back to the Big
12 for Oklahoma State OT
Russell Okung, who went to
Seattle, where perennial Pro
Bowl blocker Walter Jones
might retire.
Florida CB Joe Haden was
chosen by Cleveland, fol-
lowed by Alabama inside LB
Rolando McClain to Oakland.
Both were All-Americans last
season.
That also gave the
Southeastern Conference
three picks in the first eight.
Clemson RB C.J. Spiller
went ninth to Buffalo, then
the surprises and the swaps
began.
Jacksonville took
California DT Tyson Alualu,
projected as a second-round-
er by many. San Francisco
moved up two spots, deal-
ing for Denver’s pick to get
Rutgers OT Anthony Davis.

OKLAHOMA CITY —
Kevin Durant had 29 points
and 19 rebounds and snapped
out of a shooting funk just
in time to lead the decisive
run in the first playoff game
played in Oklahoma City, lift-
ing the Thunder to a 101-96
victory over the Los Angeles
Lakers on Thursday night.
Durant and Russell
Westbrook scored 22 of the
final 23 for the Thunder,
including every point during a
10-2 surge that put Oklahoma
City ahead to stay.
The top-seeded Lakers got
back within 98-96 on Kobe
Bryant’s driving layup with
13.5 seconds left but the
Thunder closed it out from
the foul line to pull within 2-1
in the 7-game series.
Game 4 is Saturday night
in Oklahoma City.
Bryant scored 24 points to
surpass Jerry West’s franchise
record for playoff scoring and
Pau Gasol had 17 points and
15 rebounds for Los Angeles.
Bulls 108, Cavaliers 106
CHICAGO — Derrick Rose
scored 31 points, Kirk Hinrich
added 27 and Chicago hung to
beat top-seeded Cleveland in
Game 3 of its first-round series
after its 21-point lead dwindled
to one.
James scored 13 of his 39
points in the fourth quarter but
also committed some turnovers
down the stretch. Even so, the
Cavaliers were within 107-106
after Mo Williams nailed a 3-point-
er with 3.8 seconds left. They
immediately fouled Luol Deng,
who hit the first free throw but
missed the second.
Cleveland’s Anthony Parker
got the rebound and raced
up the right side but missed a
3-point attempt at the buzzer and
the Bulls escaped with the win
despite some shaky foul shooting
late in the game.
They will try to tie the best-of-
seven series on Sunday.

PORTLAND, Ore. — Jason
Richardson scored a playoff
career-high 42 points and Phoenix
dominated from the start in taking
a 2-1 lead over Portland in a first-
round series.
The Suns led by as many as
31 points before Portland mount-
ed a rally in the fourth quarter,
closing within 91-80 after Rudy
Fernandez hit three consecutive
3-pointers.
The burst came too late for the
Blazers, who suffered a setback
when starting forward Nicolas
Batum aggravated a shoulder
injury in the first half and did not
return.
Amare Stoudemire had 20
points for the Suns, while Steve
Nash finished with 13 points and
10 assists.
LaMarcus Aldridge led the
Blazers with 17 points. Andre
Miller, who scored 31 in Portland’s

The Associated Press
PITTSBURGH — Matt
Carkner scored at 7:06 of
the third overtime to give the
Ottawa Senators a 4-3 victory
over the Pittsburgh Penguins
on Thursday night, forcing
a sixth game in the Eastern
Conference series.
Carkner fired a slap shot
through traffic that deflected
off the Penguins’ Matt Cooke
from the right point for his
first goal of the postseason,
ending the longest game this
NHL playoff season.
Peter Regin tied it with
9:36 to play, Mike Fisher
and Jarkko Ruutu also scored
and Jason Spezza and Erik
Karlsson each had two assists
for the Senators, who have
won two of three at Mellon
Arena.
Sidney Crosby had a goal
and an assist to give him mul-

Flyers 3, Devils 0
NEWARK, N.J. — The
Philadelphia Flyers were the last
team into the Stanley Cup play-
offs but are the first to reach the
second round.
Flyers goalie Brian Boucher
stopped 27 shots for his sec-
ond career playoff shutout to help
Philadelphia finish off the series
in Game 5.
Claude Giroux scored twice
in the second period after Danny

lead in the first. Boucher made the
offense stand up as Philadelphia
beat New Jersey for the ninth time
in 11 meetings this season.
Blackhawks 3, Predators 0
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Patrick
Sharp scored his first two goals
of the postseason and Chicago
finally found its offensive form to
tie the series at 2-2.
Jonathan Toews also scored
his first playoff goal and had an
assist. Marian Hossa had an
assist, just his second in the
series, and rookie Antti Niemi
stopped 33 shots for his second
shutout.
The Blackhawks made a
couple lineup changes, includ-
ing playing defenseman Brian
Campbell for the first time since
he broke his collarbone and a rib
March 14.
Nashville lost its first Game 4
in three tries on home-ice. The
Predators gave no offensive

games.
Sharks 5, Avalanche 0
SAN JOSE, Calif. — Evgeni
Nabokov stopped 28 shots to
record his seventh career playoff
shutout, Logan Couture scored

and Dwight Helminen also scored
for the Sharks.
Colorado goalie Craig
Anderson stopped 29 on 33 shots
before being replaced by Peter
Budaj at 11:05 of the third period.
Tempers flared as San Jose
scored three times in the second
period in the biggest offensive
outburst by either team in the first
round.
Neither team had held a lead
of more than one goal until the
Sharks took a 2-0 lead.

Hollywood bean counters have started

God, cancer and movies
calling them “God films.”
The typical faith-based indie has a tiny
budget, and most of the actors are ama-
teurs or second stringers from television. It
doesn’t take much money to promote one be-
cause churches are eager to hold pre-release
screenings that fire up clergy and volunteers
to spread the word -- on foot and online.
Southern Baptist entrepreneurs in Geor-
gia made the pro-marriage drama “Fire-
proof” for $500,000, and it grossed $40
million at the box office before the DVDs
started reaching Bible bookstores. The new
Possibility Pictures team spent only $3 mil-
lion making its first film, “Letters to God,”
which opens this week.
Studio people can do the math.
“Lots of people are interested in that
‘Fireproof’ business model,” said Patrick
Doughtie, who wrote the original “Let-
ters to God” screenplay and helped direct
the movie. “They don’t really know what
they’re looking for in terms of content, but
they know that these movies are reaching an
audience and making some money.”
Doughtie, on the other hand, knew ex-
actly what he wanted to see when “Letters
to God” reached movie screens. He began
studying screenwriting in order to tell a
highly personal story based on the life of his
son, Tyler, who died in 2005 at age 9 after a
battle with a brain tumor.
After wrestling with anger and depres-
sion, Doughtie finally realized how much
his son’s faith had touched the lives of the
people around him, old and young, and es-
pecially other members of Grace Baptist
Church in Nashville, Tenn.
This provided the hook for a fictional sto-
ry about a boy named Tyler who has brain
cancer and begins writing letters to God full
of questions about his own life, as well as
prayers for his family and friends as they
struggle with their fears that he will die. The
letters end up in the hands of a postal worker
who is struggling with alcoholism and the
breakup of his own family.
After he had finished the basic script,
Doughtie found a notebook in which Tyler
had written some letters to God. This made
him even more determined to find producers
who were willing to tell the story with the
faith element intact.
“All kinds of people are touched by can-
cer, and they’re going to know what this
movie is all about,” he said, days before the
movie’s April 9 release in 900 theaters na-
tionwide. “But I didn’t want to write a story
that was just about cancer. I wanted to write
a story about hope and about what needs to
happen after a battle with cancer.”
For years, the makers of these faith-driv-
en films have insisted that they can serve as
evangelistic tools to reach nonbelievers --
even though they are full of hymns, prayers,
church services, mini-sermons and related
activities that tend to appeal to people who
are already in church pews.
Sure enough, most of the crucial scenes
in “Letters to God” pivot on confessions of
faith, accompanied by lilting flutes or heav-
enly choirs.
Even the most painful moments are
squeaky clean. The alcoholic mailman
doesn’t shout a single curse when he hits
rock bottom or when his wise bartender
refuses to serve him another drink. Tyler’s
mother, Maddy, is already a widow and, by
the end of the movie, knows that she will
lose her youngest son. Still, she loses her
cool only once -- when her own mother re-
minds her of a biblical parable about faith.
She shouts: “I wish everyone would stop
quoting the Bible to me. It’s not curing my
son.”
Doughtie said that he hopes nonbelievers
will see “Letters to God,” but he knows they
will not be the primary audience. More than
anything else, he hopes the movie will in-
spire church leaders to learn how to minister
to families affected by cancer.
“People wanted to help us, but they didn’t
know how,” said Doughtie.
“They loved us. They prayed for us. They
brought us casseroles. They wanted to help.
... But what are you supposed to do after you
pat someone on the back and say, ‘Hey, I’m
sorry you lost your kid’?
“What we have to do is remove the stig-
ma from childhood cancer. People in our
churches need to take their blinders off and
get more involved with cancer families.”

nalism Center at the Council for Christian Colleges and

G-20 officials convene for

talks on global economy
By MARTIN CRUTSINGER
and JEANNINE AVERSA
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Finance officials from
the world’s major countries believe the global
economy is in far better shape than it was a year
ago, but they are worried that a growing debt
crisis in Greece could cause the hard-won gains
to unravel.
Some are also concerned about the failure so
far to achieve consensus on the steps needed to
toughen regulations to make sure the financial
crisis that triggered the worst recession since the
1930s is not repeated.
Finance ministers and the heads of central
banks from the Group of 20 major economies
were to participate in daylong talks today at the
International Monetary Fund. The G-20 is com-
posed of the world’s richest industrial countries
and fast-growing developing nations such as
China, Brazil, South Korea and Russia.
The United States was being represented by
Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner and Federal
Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke. The talks
today were being held in advance of weekend
meetings of key policymaking boards of the
186-nation IMF and its sister lending institution,
the World Bank.
The administration is hoping the G-20 will
endorse a set of financial reforms that will com-
plement the sweeping overhaul that President
Barack Obama is seeking to get approved in
Congress. The U.S. measure was scheduled
for an initial showdown vote in the Senate on
Monday.
“It’s clear that the
Greek situation is a
very serious one. There
is no single way, no
silver bullet to solve it
in an easy manner.”
— Dominique Strauss-Kahn,
IMF managing director
IMF Managing Director Dominique Strauss-
Kahn on Saturday. Greece is seeking support
from European governments and the IMF for a
standby rescue package that it hopes it will not
need.
But with investors demanding punishingly
high interest rates, the chances that Greece will
get by without an IMF-supported rescue seemed
increasingly remote.
“It’s clear that the Greek situation is a very
serious one,” Strauss-Kahn told reporters
Thursday. “There is no single way, no silver
bullet to solve it in an easy manner.”
French Finance Minister Christine Lagarde,
speaking to a Washington think-tank late
Thursday, said she was confident Greece would
be able to successfully implement an austerity
program full of “very hard and harsh measures”
being demanded by the other governments as a
condition for support.
