AAA: Ohio gas
up 4 cents from
last week
COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio
gas prices are edging closer to
$4 a gallon as supply problems
in Libya push oil to near $113
a barrel.
A survey from auto club
AAA, the Oil Price Information
Service and Wright Express
puts the statewide average
price for regular-grade gas-
oline at $3.86 a gallon, up
4 cents from last Monday’s
average of $3.82.
Libyan rebels said Sunday
they won’t produce crude for
at least a month as they repair
fields damaged in fighting.
Turmoil in Libya has contrib-
uted to a 34 percent surge in
crude oil prices since mid-
February.
Prices at Ohio gas pumps
are up 30 cents from a month
ago, when regular was averag-
ing $3.56. Last year at this
time the state’s motorists were
paying an average $2.76, $1.10
less than the current price.

Ohio’s teacher pay system
could be 1st of its kind
COLUMBUS (AP) —
Ohio’s new law to limit col-
lective bargaining for public
workers could make it the first
state with a mandatory system
to pay teachers based on their
performance.
The measure passed by the
Republican-led Legislature
and signed by GOP Gov. John
Kasich bans strikes by pub-
lic workers and replaces auto-
matic pay increases with merit
raises or performance pay.
That means it eliminates salary
schedules and step increases
of 110,000 full-time public
teachers in the state, The Plain
Dealer reported Sunday.
Ohio would be the first state
in the U.S. to replace automat-
ic raises with a performance-
based pay system for teachers
statewide, said Kathy Christie,
chief of staff for the Denver-
based Education Commission
of the States, a nonpartisan
group that researches educa-
tion policy.
“That is the type of com-
ponent that really, really reso-
nates with the public,“ she told
and then moved on into Allen
County.
McCoy said the tornado
touched down on Liberty
Union Road one-half mile
south of Lincoln Highway at
the George Adams residence
which sustained heavy damage.

sorts of things you want to see
teachers doing, then you don’t
move up at all.“
A Colorado school district
that made a similar change in
pay systems has found success,
Christie said, and other schools
throughout the country have
tried linking student achieve-
ment to staff bonuses, though
teachers were guaranteed any
pay raises outlined in their con-
tracts.
A handful of states have
tried performance-based pay
programs, but Christie said
many have had trouble finding
an equitable way to offer pay
raises for everyone while giv-
ing some merit pay.
If the Ohio law remains
in place, state officials would
develop new standards to eval-
uate teacher performance, and
student achievement would
constitute half of an educator’s
evaluation, affecting whether

this was nearly the same path as
the destructive 2002 Van Wert
Tornado which cut through the
entire county.
The National Weather

spring season will continue
to remain quite active with
storms and possible tornadoes.
Because of the recent and
ongoing LaNina weather pat-
tern which caused active winter
storms is now dominating the
spring months. McCoy contin-
ues to urge the public to watch
the weather closely as severe
storms may occur again this
Tuesday into Wednesday with
additional flooding rains likely.

Obama re-election prospects
By MARK S. SMITH
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — With
gas prices climbing and lit-
tle relief in sight, President
Barack Obama is scrambling
to get ahead of the latest poten-
tial obstacle to his re-election
bid, even as Republicans are
making plans to exploit the
issue.
No one seems more aware
of the electoral peril than
Obama himself.
“My poll numbers go up
and down depending on the
latest crisis, and right now
gas prices are weighing
heavily on people,” he told
Democratic donors in Los
Angeles this past week.
In fact, Obama raised the
issue unsolicited in a series
of town meetings in Virginia,
California and Nevada that
were ostensibly about his def-
icit-reduction plan. And he
made the gas spike the sub-
ject of his weekly radio and
Internet address Saturday.
“It’s just another burden
when things were already
pretty tough,” he said.
As Obama well knows,
Americans love their cars and
remain heavily dependent on
them, and they don’t hesitate
to punish politicians when the
cost of filling their tanks goes
through the roof. Indeed, for
presidents, responding to
sudden surges is a recurring
frustration.
Past House GOP tactic proves useless to Dems
By JIM ABRAMS
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A year
ago, when Republicans were
in the minority on Capitol
Hill, they drove Democrats
crazy by using an obscure
parliamentary maneuver to
change, delay and even kill
Democratic priorities.
Now that Republicans are
running the House, Democrats
have tried to stymie the GOP
agenda by relying on the tac-
tic, known as the motion to
recommit. But they’ve failed
on every one of their 23
attempts this year.
That motion is almost
always the last step just before
the final vote on a bill. It gives
the minority party, which has
little voice and few rights in the
House, a last chance to amend
a bill, or in a more traditional
sense, return it to the commit-
tee level for further work.
Often, the maneuver is
aimed at forcing members of
the majority into an untenable
choice between opposing their
party’s position or casting a
vote that opponents could use
against them in election cam-
paigns.
For a recommit motion to
work, the minority party must
pick off at least some mem-
bers of the majority. Thus
Democrats would need at least

business decisions in retali-
ation against union workers.
Unionized workers in the com-
pany’s Everett, Wash., facility
have gone on strike several
times in recent years.
But does this mean that
Boeing’s decision to locate a
second production line in anoth-
er state constitutes retaliation?
Intimidation? Or is it merely a
good business decision based on
several factors, including a bet-
ter climate and a tax-friendlier
environment? Prettier women?
Kidding, kidding!
When it comes to red-meat
issues around which conser-
vatives can coalesce, you
couldn’t do much better than
unions versus private indus-
try, especially in historically
anti-union South Carolina. The
NLRB just tossed a Kobe ten-
derloin to the GOP.
Putting history aside for
the moment, this battle sim-
plifies and clarifies the stakes
in the private versus public
debate and may make it easier
for fence-straddlers to pick a
political side. Other related
issues have been somewhat
less clear-cut for all but the
most ideologically corseted.
In Wisconsin, for instance,
“These gas prices are kill-
ing you right now,” Obama
said at Facebook headquarters
in Palo Alto, acknowledging
that many Americans can’t
afford new fuel-efficient cars
and must drive older models.
For some, he said, the cost
of a fill-up has all but erased
the benefit of the payroll tax
holiday that he and congres-
sional Republicans agreed on
last December.
On Saturday, Obama
insisted in his radio and
Internet address that the best
answer is a long-term drive to
develop alternatives to fossil
fuel. He also renewed calls
to end $4 billion in subsidies
for oil and gas companies.
“Instead of subsidizing yes-
terday’s energy sources,” he
said, “we need to invest in
tomorrow’s.”
Republicans contend that
high gas prices are the inevi-
table result of an administra-
tion they accuse of stifling
domestic drilling, and which
placed new curbs on offshore
exploration after last spring’s
disastrous BP oil spill.
“The administration
has declared what can only
be described as a war on
American energy,” said
Senate Minority Leader
Mitch McConnell.
“Obama is vulnerable on
gas prices and the Republicans
have and will exploit this as
a wedge issue,” said James
Thurber, who directs the
a few dozen of the House’s 241
Republicans to vote with them
this year. Their best showing
so far on any motion: two GOP
votes.
Republican leaders may
have a hard time keeping their
troops in line on the budget and
social issues, but there’s near
ironclad unity when it comes
to keeping Democrats in their
place.
A Democratic motion on
a recent bill to cut off fed-
eral dollars for National Public
Radio would have continued
money for Amber alerts on
NPR regarding abducted chil-
dren. The motion didn’t get
a single Republican vote. Nor
did Democrats get a nibble
when they called for federal air
marshals on high-risk flights as
part of aviation legislation.
On a highway spending
bill, Democrats were shut
out when they tried to cut
off federal aid for “bridge to
nowhere” projects in Alaska.
They drew a single vote on a
motion to the last short-term
spending bill stating that there
would be no cuts to Social
Security or Medicare. “That
is simply a fog screen,” GOP
Rep. Hal Rogers of Kentucky,
chairman of the House
Appropriations Committee,
said in opposing it.
Such motions rarely suc-
ceed for either party. But
where unions and Gov. Scott
Walker have battled over
whether state workers should
have collective bargaining
powers beyond wage nego-
tiations, a fair determination
could seem elusive at times.
Shouldn’t workers have the
right to negotiate as a team?
The governor’s position was
that the state couldn’t afford to
meet public-employee union
demands on pensions, forcing
taxpayers into indefinite debt.
South Carolina’s situation
is less murky.
Critics of the NLRB com-
plaint claim that the Obama
administration is merely mas-
saging the union vote. Critics
of Boeing see the company’s
business decision as intimidat-
ing to its other workers, who
may fear their jobs are at risk
and their bargaining powers
diminished.
The key question isn’t
whether Boeing executives
are trying to avoid strikes and
maximize productivity and
profits. Of course they are.
The more compelling concern
is whether unions should be
allowed essentially to veto
where a company locates and
conducts business.
Perhaps the question will
have to be answered by the
courts, but South Carolinians,
including Gov. Nikki Haley
and Republican Sens. Lindsey
Graham and Jim DeMint,
promise a fight. In the interim,
a couple of facts are worth con-
sidering: One, 2,000 jobs have

Center for Congressional
and Presidential Studies at
American University.
Legislative aides report
House Republicans are con-
sidering a series of hearings
and floor votes on measures
to boost domestic oil and gas
production when Congress
returns from its Easter break.
Meantime, Obama has
ordered his Justice Department
to form a task force to look
for fraud or manipulation in
the oil markets. It will “root
out” any abuses, he told a
town meeting in Reno, Nev.
The president is among those
who’ve said the surging price
for crude is caused by worries
about political upheaval in
the Arab world and increas-
ing demand from China and
elsewhere.
Still, Americans have a
tradition of holding the party
in power responsible for ris-
ing gas costs.
Obama’s focus on the
issue came as a New York
Times/CBS News poll pub-
lished Thursday found that 70
percent of the public believes
the country is headed in the
wrong direction. That fol-
lowed a March AP-GfK sur-
vey reflecting widespread
discontent over the economy,
with just 15 percent seeing
an economic improvement
the previous month. Through
the spring, Obama’s approval
numbers in several polls have
slipped.
Republicans in the recent
past have managed to entice
conservative and vulnerable
Democrats with motions on
sensitive subjects such as
guns, abortion and immigra-
tion.
Republicans nearly suc-
ceeded in derailing the health
care act last year with a motion
to recommit that contained
anti-abortion provisions.
Democratic leaders had to
appease their own anti-abor-
tion wing to secure their votes
against the GOP motion.
In 2007 Democrats had
to withdraw a bill giving
residents in the District of
Columbia a vote in the House
because of a motion to repeal
the city’s tough gun laws.
Last spring Republicans
succeeded in changing a bill
to subsidize people who buy
energy-efficient products for
their homes. GOP lawmak-
ers made the changes part of
a recommit motion barring
contractors from hiring child
molesters.
A week later they watered
down a science and technol-
ogy bill by attaching their
version to a proposal to fire
government works who view
pornography on the job. Many
Democrats, envisioning elec-
tion-year attack ads claiming
they supported pornography,
had to go along.
been added to the Everett plant
since the South Carolina project
was announced, so job security
seems to be a nonissue. Two,
given that the South Carolina
plant has been well under way
for a couple of years, the timing
of the NLRB complaint raises
questions of motive.
The complaint may be
political, but this isn’t mere
politics. The debate cuts to
the core of how this country
defines itself. As Graham put
it, the complaint is “one of the
worst examples of unelected
bureaucrats doing the bidding
of special-interest groups that
I’ve ever seen.”
Meanwhile, one couldn’t
find a more personal issue to
bestir local passions in a state
that boasts politics as blood
sport. Feds and “outside agita-
tors” telling locals what to do
and robbing jobs in the process?
See: Fort Sumter. Obviously
this skirmish doesn’t compare
to slavery or Jim Crow, the end
of which did require outside
“interference.” But even today,
it doesn’t take much to unscab
the twin wounds of invasion
and humiliation.
Republican candidates will
have no trouble picking the
right side of this argument,
and Democrats will be hard-
pressed to choose such an anti-
business posture. Any poli-
tician would be mistaken to
ignore the stakes. By any other
name, this is civil war.

The Associated Press
NBA
NEW YORK — Kevin Garnett
had 26 points and 10 rebounds,
Rajon Rondo added 21 points
and 12 assists and the Boston
Celtics swept their way into the
Eastern Conference semifinals,
holding on for a 101-89 victory
over the New York Knicks on
Sunday.
Ray Allen and reserve Glen
Davis each added 14 points for
the Celtics, the first team into
the second round after sweep-
ing a series for the first time
since a 3-0 victory over Indiana
in 1992, the last series victory
for their old Big Three before
Larry Bird retired.
They had a 23-point
lead cut to four in the
fourth quarter but pulled
away again behind
Garnett, who scored 20
after halftime.
The current Big Three
of Garnett, Allen and Paul
Pierce twice was extend-
ed to seven games in
the first round but this
one was far easier than
expected against the
injury-weakened Knicks.
The Celtics could now
have a week off while they wait
for likely second-round oppo-
nent Miami, which was forced to
a fifth game earlier Sunday after
a late rally by Philadelphia.
The Celtics almost faced the
same scenario but a Knicks
comeback attempt stalled in the
final minutes.
Carmelo Anthony had 32
points and nine rebounds and
Amare Stoudemire, who decid-
ed to play after his back felt bet-
ter, finished with 19 points and
12 boards but shot only 5-of-20
from the field.
The Knicks shot 34 percent
and were quickly dispatched in
their first playoff appearance
since 2004, when they were
also swept in the first round.
They haven’t won a playoff
game in 10 years.
76ers 86, Heat 82
PHILADELPHIA — Lou
Williams hit a 3-pointer with 8.1
seconds left to lead Philadelphia
over Miami and avoid a sweep.
Miami was 95 seconds away
from winning Game 4, holding
an 82-76 lead.
LeBron James, Dwyane
Wade, Chris Bosh and the rest
of the Heat didn’t score again.
Jrue Holiday made a 3 with
46.6 seconds left that sliced
the deficit to one. Williams fol-
lowed with a 3 from the top of
the arc for an 84-82 lead that
sent the nearly 20,000 fans into
a frenzy.
Game 5 is Wednesday in
Miami.
Williams and Evan Turner
led the Sixers with 17 points
each. Andre Iguodala added 16
points and Elton Brand had 15
points and 11 rebounds.
James scored 31 points for
the Heat and Wade 22. Bosh
scored 12 points and had two
blocks late in the game that
seemed to seal the win for the
Heat.
Hawks 88, Magic 85
ATLANTA — Jamal
Crawford scored 25 points and
Joe Johnson hit four big free
throws in the final 20 seconds
after Atlanta struggled most of
the night at the line, leading
the Hawks to a victory over
the Magic and a 3-1 lead in
their Eastern Conference play-
off series.
The Hawks will try to wrap
up the best-of-7 series Tuesday

night in Orlando.
Atlanta made only 12-of-20
free throws but Johnson came
through when the Magic were
forced to foul. Orlando had a
last chance to tie it up but Al
Horford knocked the ball away
from Hedo Turkoglu as he tried
to get loose for a 3-pointer.
Turkoglu got the ball back
with only enough time to force
one up. It missed badly and the
Hawks celebrated a command-
ing lead in the series.

NHL
CHICAGO — Ben Smith
scored on a rebound at 15:30
of overtime and the Stanley
Cup champion Chicago
Blackhawks beat the
Vancouver Canucks 4-3
on Sunday night to force a
seventh game in the open-
ing-round series.
The Canucks, with the
NHL’s best record during
the regular season, have
lost three straight after it
appeared they were in con-
trol of the series. Game
7 is Tuesday night in
Vancouver.
Chicago is attempting
to become the fourth team
in NHL history to win a 7-game
series after falling behind 3-0.
Philadelphia did it last year
against Boston in the Eastern
Conference semifinals.
Smith, a rookie, scored after
Niklas Hjalmarsson’s shot from
the point bounced off goalie
Roberto Luongo.
Luongo didn’t start the game
but was called upon in the third
period when Cory Schneider
had to be helped off the ice
when he was injured as he tried
to stop Michael Frolik’s penalty
shot that tied it at 3.
Bryan Bickell and Dave
Bolland added goals for the
Blackhawks and Chicago goal-
ie Corey Crawford made 32
saves, including 12 in overtime
when the Canucks appeared
ready to win the game and end
the series.
Daniel Sedin, Alexandre
Burrows and Kevin Bieska
scored for the Canucks.

The Herald — 7A
return in another relief appear-
ance helped Philadelphia force
Game 7 in the first-round series
against Buffalo.
Danny Briere scored twice
and Boucher stopped 24 shots
over the final two periods and
overtime in a 5-4 victory Sunday
in the tightly-contested Eastern
Conference series.
Game 7 is Tuesday night in
Philadelphia.
Boucher took over to start
the second period after Michael
Leighton allowed three goals on
the first seven shots he faced.
Scott Hartnell had a goal and
assist and James van Riemsdyk
also scored for the Flyers, who
overcame a 2-goal deficit while
drawing upon Chris Pronger’s
presence. The gritty defense-
man played sparingly in his first
game after missing 21 because
of a broken right hand.
Thomas Vanek scored
twice for Buffalo, and Rob
Niedermayer and Nathan Gerbe
added goals.
Kris Versteeg helped set
up Leino’s goal. After getting
his first shot blocked, Versteeg
gained the rebound and flipped
the puck at the net, bouncing it
off several players. The puck
fell in the crease where Leino
— a step ahead of defender
Chris Butler — slid it into the
open side behind diving goalie
Ryan Miller.
Hartnell forced overtime by
scoring with 9:17 left in third.
Predators 4, Ducks 2
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Nick
Spaling scored his second goal
of the game at 4:53 of the third
period and Nashville closed out
its first postseason series vic-
tory to advance to the Western
Conference semifinals.
Steve Sullivan added a
goal, David Legwand had an
empty-netter and Jordin Tootoo
assisted On Spaling’s goals.
The Predators won the series
4-2 in their sixth postseason in
seven seasons.
Jason Blake scored a power-
play goal, and Teemu Selanne
also had a goal for the Ducks,
his sixth of the series. Anaheim
lost in the opening round for the
third time in seven playoffs.
The fifth-seeded Predators
must wait and see who they
play next.

COLLECTORS BUYING ALL TYPES

OF COINS. PAYING CASH.
By KEN MCINTOSH
STAFF WRITER

ICCA will be placing ads in newspapers,

radio and running television spots this week
asking people to bring in any old silver and
gold coins made before 1965. Those that
bring in their coins will be able to speak
with collectors one on one and have their
coins looked at with an expert set of eyes.
With the help of these ICCA members, offers
will be made to those that have coins made
before 1965. Offers will be made based
on silver or gold content and the rarity of
the coins. All coins made before 1965 will
be examined and purchased including gold
coins, silver coins, silver dollars, all types of
nickels and pennies. Those that decide to
sell their coins will be paid on the spot.
If you are like a lot of people you might
have a few old coins or even a coffee
can full lying around. If you have ever
wondered what they are worth now might
be your chance to find out and even sell
them if you choose. They could be worth
a lot according to the International Coin
Collectors Association also known as ICCA.
Collectors will pay a fortune for some coins
and currency for their collections. If it is
rare enough, one coin could be worth over
$100,000 according to Eric Helms, coin
collector and ICCA member. One ultra rare
dime, an 1894S Barber, sold for a record
$1.9 million to a collector in July of 2007.
While that is an extreme example, many
rare and valuable coins are stashed away
in dresser drawers or lock boxes around the
country. The ICCA and its collector members
have organized a traveling event in search

Other types of items the ICCA will be
purchasing during this event include U.S.
currency, gold bullion, investment gold,
silver bars, silver rounds, proof sets, etc.
Even foreign coins are sought after and will
be purchased.
Also at this event anyone can sell their
gold jewelry, dental gold or anything made
of gold on the spot. Gold is currently trading
at over $1,100.00 per ounce near an all
time high. Bring anything you think might
be gold and the collectors will examine,
