Flu reports light in area
BY STEPHANIE GROVES
slgroves@delphosherald.com
Despite disturbing nationwide reports on epidemic-like
flu outbreaks, Allen County has seen a slight increase in the
number of hospitalized flu cases, where Putnam and Van Wert
counties remain steady.
Becky Dershem, Director of Nursing at the Allen County
Board of Health, reports that the county has seen 89 residents
hospitalized with influenza-like illnesses (ILI) since October,
as compared to 66 last year during the same time frame. Recent
data from the Ohio Department of Health indicate that patient
ER visits with ILI symptoms have decreased from 5.1 percent
to 3.32 percent and most flu cases are influenza A, which is
covered by the current vaccine.
Since Oct. 1 to the present, Ohio has logged 1,962 ILI
cases and tallied more than 850 hospital admissions, Dershem
accounted the latest statistics.
Dershem strongly urges everyone to get a vaccination as
soon as possible and if already sick, stay home and out of pub-
lic spaces. If it is necessary to go out while ill, avoid spreading
the virus to others by wearing a mask. Take every precaution to
avoid contracting the virus by washing hands with warm water
and anti-microbial soap and use hand sanitizer as many times
as possible throughout the day.
Vaccinations through the Allen County Board of Health
are available from 8-9 a.m. or 3-4 p.m. Mondays, Wednesdays
and Fridays or by appointment. The vaccine is recommended
for everyone 6 months of age and older. Cost is $25 cash or
check; Medicare/Medicaid, Anthem, and Med Mutual insur-
ances are accepted.
The Putnam County Board of Health has had 13 hospital-
ized cases with ILI symptoms since the beginning of October.
Sheri Recker, registered nurse at the agency, reports the coun-
ty is not seeing a decline in ILI-related doctor visits. Recker
emphasizes the importance of making an appointment for and
getting a flu vaccination as soon as possible and stresses that
people who are ill should stay home.
If experiencing a cough, avoid cross-contamination by
coughing into the elbow and/or sleeve of clothing, Recker
was adamant with her directive.
Flu vaccinations are available by appointment and can be
made from 9-11:30 a.m. and 1-4 p.m. for Tuesdays and until
6 p.m. on the second and fourth Tuesdays. Also, appointments
can be made from 9:30-11:45 a.m. the fourth Wednesday of
every month. Other days of the week are by appointment with
a nurse. Bring a childs current vaccination record. Medicaid

and Anthem insurance accept-
ed. No one is denied VFC (vac-
cine For Children) vaccine due
to inability to pay. Flu shots are
$20 for adults and $10 for chil-
dren up to 18 years of age.
It is helpful to check with
the insurance carrier prior to
the appointment to see if immu-
nizations are covered.
Infectious Disease Nurse at
the Van Wert County Board
of Health Linda Bissonette
reports there have been three
hospitalized cases with ILI,
which is comparable to last
years figures at this same time.
Director of Nursing Kim Haas
indicates that the agency still
has plenty of vaccine for chil-
dren aged 6-35 months and a
limited quantity of flu mist for
children 3-18. Adult vaccines
will no longer be available
through the agency. Instead,
residents can make arrange-
ments at Community Health
Professionals, Family Health
Care of Northwest Ohio and
CVS Pharmacy.
It is critical to wash hands
and avoid touching mouth and
eyes, Haas detailed preventa-
tive measures. If sick, stay
home at least until your fever
breaks.
Van Wert County flu vac-
cines are available from 9
a.m. to noon on Wednesdays
through January. Medicaid,
Medicare and some insurances
are accepted. The cost is $12
for children, ages 6 to 18.
The proportion of people
seeing their health care pro-
vider for influenza-like illness
(ILI) decreased from 6.0 per-
cent to 4.3 percent for the week
ending in Jan. 5, but remains
above the national baseline for
the fifth consecutive week.
Twenty-four states and New
York City are now reporting
high ILI activity and 16 are
reporting moderate levels of
ILI activity; an increase from 9
states in the prior week. Since
Oct. 1, 3,710 laboratory-con-
firmed influenza-associated
hospitalizations have been
reported; an increase of 1,443
hospitalizations from the previ-
ous week. This translates to a
rate of 13.3 influenza-associat-
ed hospitalizations per 100,000
people in the United States.
Influenza-associated hospi-
talizations are highest among
people 65 and older. Of the
3,710 influenza-associated
hospitalizations that have been
reported this season, 46% have
been among people 65 and
older.
The proportion of deaths
attributed to pneumonia and
influenza (P&I) based on the
122 Cities Mortality Reporting
System is now slightly above
the epidemic threshold for the
first time this season.
Two influenza-related pedi-
atric deaths were reported dur-
ing the week between Dec.
30 and Jan. 5. One of the
deaths was associated with an
influenza A (H3) virus, and
one was associated with an
influenza A virus of unknown
subtype. This brings the total
number of influenza-associat-
ed pediatric deaths reported to
CDC for 2012-2013 to 20.

Ohio gas prices
tick up amid
recovery hopes
Womans body
found mutilated
at Toledo
apartment
Texas co. to acquire
stake in Longaberger
COLUMBUS (AP)
Ohio gas prices are higher to
start the new work week.
The average price for a
gallon of regular gas in Ohio
was $3.24 in todays survey
from auto club AAA, the Oil
Price Information Service and
Wright Express. Thats 5 cents
higher than a week ago.
Ohios prices are still below the
national average of $3.30, which
is about the same as last week.
The lowest average price in
Ohio today was $3.16 in the
Toledo area.
Experts say China and the
U.S. appear to be on a solid
track of economic recovery,
which supports oil prices at
higher levels. Prices are also
rising because of increased
energy consumption in China,
which is enduring its coldest
winter in nearly three decades.
TOLEDO (AP) Police
have arrested a man on a mur-
der charge after authorities
found a womans naked, muti-
lated body in a northwest Ohio
apartment.
The Blade newspaper reports
that police were sent to the
west Toledo apartment at 9:30
a.m. Sunday after a caller told
authorities that a woman was
found with her chest open.
Authorities arrived at the apart-
ment to find 49-year-old Joan
Annette Watson deceased.
An autopsy is scheduled for
Monday.
A message seeking addi-
tional details was left Monday
morning with Toledo police.
A Lucas County coroners
investigator told the newspaper
that the homicide was one of
the most graphic ones hes seen
in his 20 years of work.
A resident at the apart-
ment building told police he
didnt hear any commotion
on Saturday night or Sunday
morning.
NEWARK (AP) A
Texas company plans to
acquire a controlling stake in a
longtime central Ohio basket-
making company that has seen
sales and employment dip in
recent years.
The Newark-based
Longaberger Co. and Dallas-
based Computer Vision
Systems Laboratories Corp.,
or CVSL, have signed a letter
of intent for CVSL to acquire
a controlling voting interest
in the company known for its
handcrafted baskets, home and
lifestyle products including
pottery. The companies made
the announcement Friday.
Longaberger, which is also
known for its iconic basket-
shaped home office, celebrates
its 40th anniversary this year.
It had $1 billion in sales and
8,000 employees in 2000. It
now has about $100 million in
annual sales, according to the
trade publication Direct Selling
News, and fewer than 1,000
employees at last count, The
Columbus Dispatch reported.
Longaberger President and
CEO Tami Longaberger told
the companys annual sales
force meeting that she intends
to transfer her majority share
in the company and said in a
release that this is the perfect
partnership for us.
She said the acquisition
would provide more capital
and opportunity for improve-
ments and allow employees to
become shareholders.
Longaberger wrote in a let-
ter to the sales force that one
of her fathers dreams was
to make it possible for all of
our extended family to own
a piece of this company we
love, The (Newark) Advocate
reported I have found a cre-
ative way for Longaberger to
be part of a public company
while preserving 100 percent
of our identity.
Terms of the deal were not
disclosed but will be negoti-
ated in the coming weeks, said
Russell Mack, a spokesman
for CVSL and Longaberger.
The deal would require lend-
er, shareholder and regulatory
approvals.
CVSL will be a docking
station for Longaberger and
other direct-selling companies,
and more shipping or manu-
facturing operations from
other CVSL companies could
be added to the Longaberger
facilities, he said.
Mack, who said that
Longaberger has a great loca-
tion, said there is a great
possibility that over time, jobs
can be created in the area for
CVSL using currently under-
used Longaberger facilities.
The companies could not
immediately be reached for
comment Sunday. A security
guard said Longaberger offic-
es were closed. A message
was left for a telephone listing
for CVSL.
The Longaberger headquar-
ters office is in Licking County,
and County Commissioner
Tim Bubb said he hopes any
change in majority ownership
will help the company survive
and thrive.
Tami Longaberger will
remain president and CEO
of the basket maker, and the
company will continue operat-
ing as a stand-alone business,
Mack said.
TOLEDO (AP) The
decision by Ohio utility
regulators to block plans for
American Electric Power Co.
to use power from a southeast
Ohio solar farm is having an
impact on a solar-panel maker
in northwest Ohio.
Isofoton North America
executives were counting on
the $180 million project to
bring new jobs to their solar-
panel plant in Napoleon.
The company has 33
employees at the plant south-
west of Toledo but had plans to
eventually hire 330 workers.
A company official says
there are other projects in the
works but the company was
counting on the southeast Ohio
solar farm to get the factory off
the ground.
The Public Utilities
Commission of Ohio voted
Wednesday against funding
the Turning Point project that
was touted in 2010 as the larg-
est solar energy project east of
the Mississippi River
Regulators said AEP hadnt
demonstrated that investing in
the project would benefit rate-
payers, nor that it was neces-
sary to meet the companys
renewable energy require-
ments. The solar farm planned
near the wildlife conservancy
called The Wilds was project-
ed to create hundreds of jobs
and produce enough electricity
to power 25,000 homes.
Under recent changes to
Ohio law, utilities are required
to generate a portion of their
electricity through alternative
energy sources, including solar.
AEP had agreed to pur-
chase power from the facil-
ity for 20 years to help fulfill
state renewable energy rules.
The PUCO ruling blocked that
arrangement.
Meanwhile, future job-cre-
ation goals are up in the air at
the solar-panel plant in north-
west Ohio, said Michael Peck,
chairman of Isofoton North
America.
Turning Point represents
that kind of critical mass pur-
chase order that you need to
get a factory up and running,
he told The Blade.
The European solar panel
maker put its North American
headquarters in Ohio mainly
because of the Turning Point
development, Peck said.
Isofoton received a $5 mil-
lion loan from the Ohio Air
Quality Development Authority
and a $3 million loan from the
Ohio Development Services
Agency to get started.
Peck said he still intends to
repay the state.
A spokesman for the
Turning Point project has said
its developers are still hopeful
that the proposed solar farm
can be built.
Blocking of Ohio solar farm hurts panel maker
Plan to ship wastewater
into Ohio is put on hold
COLUMBUS (AP)
A Texas-based company
wants to use river barges to
move its potentially toxic
wastewater in Ohio, but
federal officials must first
decide whether its safe.
The Columbus Dispatch
reports that Grapevine,
Texas-based GreenHunter
Water has its plan on hold
as authorities investigate
environmental questions
regarding the wastewater
from the gas drilling indus-
try.
The industry uses water
and chemicals to stimulate
production of natural gas
locked in shale. Some of
that water comes back to
the surface. It gets recy-
cled or is taken by truck to
industrial treatment plants
or deep injection wells for
treatment or disposal.
The newspaper reports
that GreenHunter Water has
bought liquid-storage tanks
at an Ohio River terminal in
New Matamoras in south-
eastern Ohio. The terminal
could serve as a transfer
point to truck the waste.

WASHINGTON Unlike
many who recently have joined
the debate about gun rights,
I have a long history with
guns, which I proffer only in
the interest of pre-empting the
elitist, liberal, swine, prosti-
tute, blahblahblah charge.
I grew up in a home with
guns, lots of them, and was
taught early how to shoot, care
for firearms and treat them
respectfully. My fathers rules
were simple: Never point a
gun at someone unless you
intend to shoot them; if you
intend to shoot, aim to kill.
Dear ol dad was a law-
and-order guy a lawyer,
judge and World War II vet-
eran who did everything by
the book except when it
came to guns. Most memo-
rable among his many lectures
was a confidence: There is
only one law in the land that
I would break, he told me. I
will never register my guns.
I suppose if he hadnt also
opposed bumper stickers, he
might have attached the one
about cold dead fingers to
his fender. He also might have
liked a slogan I read recently:
With guns, we are citizens;
without them, we are sub-
jects.
By todays standards my
father would be considered
a gun nut, but his sentiments
were understandable in the
context of his time. Like oth-
ers of his generation, he had
witnessed Germanys dis-
arming of its citizenry and
the consequences thereafter.
Thus, the slippery slope of
which gun rights advocates
speak is not without precedent
or reason.
But the history of gun con-
trol laws is not without contra-
dictions and ironies that belie
the current insistence that guns-
without-controls is the ipso
facto of originalist America. In
fact, the federal government of
our Founders made gun own-
ership mandatory for white
males, while denying others
slaves and later freedmen
the privilege.
Today, the most vociferous
defenders of gun rights tend
to be white, rural males who
oppose any regulation. But
theirs was once the ardent-
ly held position of radical
African-Americans. Notably,
in the 1960s, Black Panthers
Bobby Seale and Huey
Newton toted guns wherever
they went to make a point:
Blacks needed guns to protect
themselves in a country that
wasnt quite ready to enforce
civil rights.
In one remarkable incident
in May 1967, as recounted in
The Atlantic by UCLA law
professor Adam Winkler, 24
men and six women, all armed,
ascended the California capi-
tol steps, read a proclamation
about gun rights and proceed-
ed inside with their guns,
which was legal at the time.
Needless to say, conser-
vatives, including then-Gov.
Ronald Reagan, were sud-
denly very, very interested in
gun control. That afternoon,
Reagan told reporters there
was no reason why on the
street today a citizen should be
carrying loaded weapons.
The degree of ones alle-
giance to principle apparently
depends mainly on who is
holding the gun.
While black activists were
adamant about their right
to protect themselves, the
National Rifle Association
wasnt much interested in the
constitutional question until
the mid-70s when an organi-
zational split produced a new
leader, Harlon Carter, who
was dedicated to advocacy
and determined to dig a deep
line in the Beltway sand.
The Second Amendment
debate about what the
Founders intended was clari-
fied in 2008 when the U.S.
Supreme Court in District
of Columbia v. Heller deter-
mined that the right of the
people to keep and bear arms
included individuals, not just
a well-regulated militia.
However, as Winkler pointed
out, Justice Antonin Scalias
opinion left wiggle room for
exceptions, including prohi-
bitions related to felons and
the mentally ill. Scalia was
not casting doubt, the jus-
tice wrote, on laws imposing
conditions and qualifications
on the commercial sale of
arms.
This still leaves open the
loophole of private sales that
do not require background
checks, which President
Obama wants to close. We
will hear more about this in
coming weeks, but the call
meanwhile to ban assault
weapons or limit magazines in
the wake of the horrific mass
murder of children and others
at Sandy Hook Elementary
School in Connecticut is hard-
ly draconian. It wont solve
the problem of mentally dis-
turbed people exacting weird
justice from innocents, but it
might limit the toll. Having to
stop ones rampage to reload
rather breaks the spell, or so
one would imagine.
One also imagines that the
old Reagan would say theres
no reason a citizen needs an
assault weapon or a magazine
that can destroy dozens of
people in minutes. He would
certainly be correct and, in
a sane world, possibly even
electable.

Guns without roses
By EILEEN SULLIVAN
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON The
powerful gun lobby is gauging
enough support in Congress
to block a law that would
ban assault weapons, despite
promises from the White
House and senior lawmakers
to make such a measure a
reality.
Senators plan to introduce
a bill that would ban assault
weapons and limit the size of
ammunition magazines, like
the one used in the December
shooting massacre that killed
27 people, most of them chil-
dren, in Newtown, Conn.
Democratic Sen. Dianne
Feinstein of California has
promised to push for a renew-
al of expired legislation.
The National Rifle
Association has so far prevent-
ed passage of another assault
weapons ban like the one that
expired in 2004. But some
lawmakers say the Newtown
tragedy has transformed the
country, and Americans are
ready for stricter gun laws.
President Barack Obama has
made gun control a top prior-
ity. And on Tuesday, Vice
President Joe Biden is expect-
ed to give Obama a compre-
hensive package of recom-
mendations for curbing gun
violence.
Still, the NRA has faith
that Congress would prevent
a new weapons ban.
When a president takes
all the power of his office, if
hes willing to expend politi-
cal capital, you dont want to
make predictions. You dont
want to bet your house on the
outcome. But I would say that
the likelihood is that they are
not going to be able to get an
assault weapons ban through
this Congress, NRA presi-
dent David Keene told CNNs
State of the Union.
Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz.,
responded with a flat out no
when asked on CBS Face
the Nation whether Congress
would pass a ban on assault
weapons.
Democratic West Virginia
Sen. Joe Manchin, a lifelong
member of the NRA has
said everything should be on
the table to prevent another
tragedy like Newtown. But
he assured gun owners he
would fight for gun rights at
the same time. I would tell
all of my friends in NRA,
I will work extremely hard
and I will guarantee you there
will not be an encroachment
on your Second Amendment
rights, Manchin said on
ABCs This Week.
The NRAs deep pockets
help bolster allies and punish
lawmakers who buck them.
The group spent at least $24
million in the 2012 elections
$16.8 million through
its political action commit-
tee and nearly $7.5 million
through its affiliated Institute
for Legislative Action.
Separately, the NRA spent
some $4.4 million through
July 1 to lobby Congress.
Keene insists the group repre-
sents its members and not just
the gun manufacturers, though
he said the NRA would like
industry to contribute more
money to the association.
We know what works and
what doesnt work. And were
not willing to compromise on
peoples rights when there is
no evidence that doing so is
going to accomplish the pur-
pose, Keene said.
The NRA, instead, is push-
ing for measures that would
keep guns out of the hands of
the mentally ill, until a person
gets better. If they are cured,
there ought to be a way out of
it, Keene said.
Currently, a person is
banned from buying a gun
from a licensed dealer if the
person is a fugitive, a felon,
convicted of substance abuse,
convicted of domestic vio-
lence, living in the U.S. ille-
gally or someone who has
been adjudicated as a mental
defective or has been commit-
ted to any mental institution.

CRUTSINGER
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON The
U.S. trade deficit expanded in
November to its widest point
in seven months, driven by
a surge in imports that out-
paced only modest growth in
exports.
The Commerce Department
report Friday suggests trade
will drag on economic growth
in the October-December
quarter. A wider trade gap
slows growth because it
means Americans spent more
on foreign products while
U.S. businesses earned less in
overseas sales.
Still, the report showed
consumers have maintained
an appetite for spending. They
kept buying iPhones and other
imported goods in November,
despite high unemployment
and low wage growth.
A strong rebound in
imports is not necessarily all
bad for the U.S. economy
because it indicates that con-
sumers are spending. It shows
the private sector is not dead,
said Gregory Daco, senior
economist at HIS Global
Insight.
The trade gap widened 15.8
percent to $48.7 billion in
November from October, the
report noted. Imports grew 3.8
percent, led by gains in ship-
ments of cell phones, includ-
ing Apples new iPhone.
Exports increased only 1
percent. Exports to Europe fell
1.3 percent, further evidence
of the prolonged debt crisis
that has gripped the region.
Paul Ashworth, chief
U.S. economist at Capital
Economics, predicts trade
trimmed growth by about
0.5 percentage point in the
final three months of the year.
He expects fourth-quarter
growth to be no more than
an annual rate of 1.5 percent.
That would be nearly half the
3.1 percent rate reported for
the July-September quarter,
which was helped by healthy
growth in exports.
Martin Schwerdtfeger,
senior economist at TD Bank,
expects the trade deficit to sub-
tract from October-December
growth. But he said the flood
of imports could be signaling
stronger consumer spending
and business investment.
The higher imports could
mean that domestic consump-
tion is improving. That would
override some of the drag
from a higher trade deficit,
Schwerdtfeger said.
Through the first 11 months
of 2012, the trade deficit is
running at an annual rate of
$546.6 billion. Thats roughly
2.4 percent lower than the
2011 deficit.
Imports of consumer goods
grew to a monthly record
in November. Much of the
growth was from cell phones
and other household electron-
ics products.
Oil imports dropped 2.5
percent, reflecting a fall in
prices and lower volume.
Imports of foreign-made
autos and auto parts rose,
likely reflecting catch-up
shipments following port dis-
ruptions in October caused by
Superstorm Sandy.
The U.S. trade deficit with
China, the largest with any
country, totaled $29 billion in
November. Thats down slight-
ly from the monthly record of
$29.5 billion in October. But
the trade gap with China is still
on track to set a new annual
record in 2012.
Trade was a modest positive
for overall economic growth
in 2012 and many economists
believe that trend will con-
tinue in 2013. However, that
forecast is based on a view
that the European debt crisis
stabilizes and growth in Asia
begins to rebound.
In its latest outlook, a fore-
casting panel for the National
Association for Business
Economics predicted that the
U.S. trade deficit for 2013
will total $533 billion, a slight
improvement from the $540
billion deficit they expect
when the trade numbers are
totaled up for all of 2012.
WASHINGTON (AP)
Conservatives and watchdog
groups are mounting a not-so-
fast campaign against a $50.7
billion Superstorm Sandy aid
package that Northeastern gov-
ernors and lawmakers hope to
push through the House this
coming week.
Their complaint is that lots
of the money that lawmakers
are considering will actually go
toward recovery efforts for past
disasters and other projects unre-
lated to the late-October storm.
A Senate-passed version from
the end of the last Congress
included $150 million for what the
Commerce Department described
as fisheries disasters in Alaska,
Mississippi and the Northeast,
and $50 million in subsidies for
replanting trees on private land
damaged by wildfires.
The objections have led
senior House Republicans to
assemble their own $17 billion
proposal, that when combined
with already approved money
for flood insurance claims, is
less than half what President
Barack Obama sought and the
Senate passed in December
That $17 billion package
will be brought to the floor
by the House Appropriations
Committee, and Northeast law-
makers will have a chance to add
$33.7 billion more.
House Speaker John Boehner
intends to let the House vote on
both measures. Hes respond-
ing both to conservatives who
are opposed to more deficit
spending, and to Govs. Andrew
Cuomo, D-N.Y., and Chris
Christie, R-N.J., who are irate
that the House hasnt acted
sooner.
Critics are taking the sharpest
aim at $12.1 billion in the amend-
ment for Department of Housing
and Urban Development emer-
gency block grants. Any state
struck by a federally declared
major disaster in 2011, 2012 or
this year would qualify for the
grants, and thats just about all
the states, said Stephen Ellis,
vice president of Taxpayers for
Common Sense, a budget watch-
dog group. Only South Carolina,
Arizona and Michigan would
not qualify, he said.

other projects

DELPHOS The St.
Johns boys hardwood unit
dominated the third quar-
ter 26-10 and went on to
a 72-55 non-league vic-
tory over Shawnee Saturday
night at Robert A. Arnzen
Gymnasium.
Two senior Blue Jays (8-3)
put in double-doubles: Curtis
Geise with 33 markers and 12
boards and Ryan Buescher
with 13 points and 10 car-
oms. Junior Eric Clark was
the third in double digits with
11 as the hosts shot 27-of-50
(54%).
The Indians (1-10) had a
pair in twin digits: junior Thad
Vernon with 21 (5 treys) and
classmate Austin Brachok
with 12 (all on treys).
The Indians used the long
ball to only trail 36-35 at the
half, knocking down 8-of-17.
However, that all changed
in the third period; the Blue
Jays (8-3) found the Indians
main shooters: Vernon and
Brachok; much better so they
werent getting as good of
looks. On the other end, the
Jays were getting into transi-
tion and their offense was in
high gear. Geise and Buescher
were having their way, both
scoring nine points. There
was were four lead changes,
the last one breaking a 44-all
tie as Geise hit a transition
jumper from the left elbow
at 4:32 to give the Blue and
Gold the lead for good. This
was in the midst of a 23-1
splurge over the final 5:30
of the canto and ended when
Clark hit a transition triple
from the right wing with 3.1
ticks on the board for a 62-45
spread.
It was the defensive end
that we addressed at halftime.
We had allowed those two to
get loose, not finding them on
the perimeter and giving them
open looks, St. Johns coach
Aaron Elwer said. We did
better at that the second half,
at recognizing where they
were and keeping closer to
them. We knew we were fine
offensively; we just had to do
a better job defensively.
The nearest the Tribe could
get in the fourth was 15 and
the largest lead came at 66-45
early on from a Buescher
deuce. They also led by 20
72-52 on a layin by senior
Cole Fischbach at 1:25 before
settling for the final margin.
Geise (12 counters) and
Vernon (11) went at it in the
first period, with Geise doing
his work on drives to the bas-
ket and jumpers, while Vernon
hit three triples. The hosts led
19-12 on a Geise transition
drive at 1:42 before Vernons
trifecta from the right wing at
1:22 made it 19-15.
Geise continued his torrid
pace in the second period, net-
ting 12 more counters. Vernon
scored six but it was Brachok
who caught fire, knocking
down all four of his bombs.
The lead changed hands four
times in the final three min-
utes, including the last at 3.1
seconds to go as Geise hit a
triple from the key, to put the
Jays up 36-35.
Shawnee knocked down
16-of-53 shots, 11-of-32
from long range, for 30.2
percent and 12-of-19 singles
for 63.2 percent. They owned
29 rebounds, 11 offensive,
as Vernon, Jay Thomas and
Marquis Miller had four each.
They added 11 errors and 16
fouls.
St. Johns added 5-of-13
3-balls and 13-of-16 free-
bies (81.3%); 38 caroms (7
offensive); 12 miscues; and
22 fouls. They visit New
Knoxville 6:30 p.m. (junior
varsity start) Friday.
We scored 72 tonight and
68 last night. This was the
best week of offensive prac-
tices we had yet this year
and we carried it over into
both games, Elwer added.
We were patient, even when
they were scoring at the other
end; we didnt allow that to
influence us offensively. We
didnt force things. It wasnt
just about Curtis, it was get-
ting everybody involved. We
are growing up more and
more.
In JV action, the Jays used
31-of-48 free-throw shooting
(64.6%), including 9-of-14
in overtime, to grab a 60-53
triumph.
Aaron Hellman hit 12 free
throws en route to 19 points
for the victors (4-7) and Alex
Odenweller hit 15 singles for
his 17 points.
Brennan Gaffer led the
Tribe (4-7) with 18 and
Griffin Hites and JaQuan
Tucker added 14 each.

OTTAWA Ottawa-
Glandorfs tough man-to-man
defense rendered the offense
of the St. Johns girls bas-
ketball team moot Saturday
afternoon, leading to a 45-19
non-league victory on The
Supreme Court inside Robert
Hermiller Gymnasium.
The Lady Titans (8-5) held
the Lady Blue Jays (6-6) to
18.2-percent shooting (6-of-
33) and forced 25 miscues.
It continues; we lack
confidence offensively, espe-
cially handling the ball. We
keep working at it and will
continue to do so, Jays men-
tor Dan J. Grothouse said.
We just dont seem to be
playing relaxed or with any
joy. Give credit to O-G; they
applied a lot of pressure to our
guards and they kept coming
at us. They forced different
people to handle the ball at
times in situations they arent
comfortable.
That defense helped O-G
to shoot 56.4-percent from the
floor 21-of-39.
We started out in a zone
the first two possessions
and gave up a three and free
throws. We havent used it
that much this year, so we
just went straight man, O-G
coach Troy Yant noted. Our
offense starts with a lot of
what we do on defense and
we played it well. I was happy
with the pressure we applied
and how it allowed us to get
into transition.
Elissa Ellerbrock paced the
hosts with 19 markers, while
Kristen Miller added 12.
Top scorer for the visi-
tors was Brooke Zuber with
six points, while Katie Vorst
and Jessica Recker added four
each.
There were three lead
changes in the first two min-
utes of the opening period
and one tie at 4-4 on a Zuber
free throw. When Danielle
Schroeder scored inside at
4:04, the hosts had the lead
for good at 6-4. Ellerbrock
led the Lady Titans with six
markers in the period and the
Titan pressure forced seven
miscues in the same span,
leading to transition baskets
by the hosts. When Miller
scored off an isolation play
on a 10-footer with 33 ticks to
go, O-G led 14-6.
The only points for the
Jays came on three Zuber
singles and a triple by Emilie
Fischbach.
The Titans Molly Closson
and the Jays Tara Vorst
exchanged deuces to open the
second period. O-G didnt
force as many turnovers in
the canto (2) but the Jays
didnt shoot very well, can-
ning 4-of-10. The hosts kept
even by hitting 4-of-13 and
led 22-15 on a transition layin
by Miller with 2:00 on the
clock.
The Lady Jays offense
wasnt exactly clicking on all
cylinders in the first half; it
went positively kaput in the
second. The only counters in
the third period came from
Katie Vorst on a basket at
the 6-minute mark. The Jays
turned it over nine times and
only went 1-of-4 from the
field. The Lady Titans took
advantage by nailing 6-of-10
shots, making in transition
looks off their defense. They
erected a 35-17 bulge on a
steal and layin by Ellerbrock
with 2:45 showing.
The Jays scored two
freebies from Katie Vorst
at 7:54 of the fourth period
and didnt score again. In
the process, they added their
final seven turnovers and
missed all nine tries from
the floor. The Lady Titans
steadily built an ever bigger
lead until the final margin of
26.In sum, St. Johns hit 1-of-
9 3-pointers (11.1%); 6-of-9
from 15 feet (66.7%); secured
27 rebounds (12 offensive)
as Vorst led with nine; and
added 10 fouls. The Lady
Jays host New Knoxville for
a varsity-only matchup 7 p.m.
Thursday.
Defensively, we struggle
to get back in transition. Our
transition defense has been a
concern much of the year,
Grothouse added. It doesnt
help when were turning the
ball over in the back court or
mid-court and when it leads
to them getting into transi-
tion. Again, we just have to

DELPHOS Jefferson head
coach Marc Smith thought
his kids battled with visit-
ing Wayne Trace for the first
two quarters and the Wildcats
trailed only 34-23 at the inter-
mission Saturday night in non-
league boys basketball action.
However, quarter num-
ber three provided a different
story.
The visiting Raiders forced
11 Wildcat turnovers in the
third quarter and opened the
stanza with a 24-0 run as
Wayne Trace ran away from
Jefferson for a 69-37 win at
Jefferson Middle School.
It was a case of the Raiders
stepping up the intensity on the
defensive end and that defense
generated offense, a combi-
nation the Wildcats couldnt
control.
They made some adjust-
ments at halftime and I thought
they really came out and played
well there in the third quarter,
noted Smith after the contest.
They were able to get their
hands in the passing lanes and
it really caused us problems.
You have to give them credit;
they are a very good basketball
team.
The Raiders were 11-of-17
from the field in the stanza and
got points from six players in
the period.
Wayne Trace opened the
scoring on a pair of Corbin
Linder free throws, coming
via a technical foul against the
Wildcats, and the floodgates
were opened. Nick McClain
scored on the ensuing posses-
sion off of a Grady Gudakunst
assist and the lead quickly went
to 38-23. The Raiders followed
with two Dalton Sinn buckets,
a McClain basket and a Colby
Speice 3-point play to widen
the margin to 47-23.
It was a momentum
swing, noted Smith of the
technical foul. But they made
plays to give themselves the
scoring opportunities. They are
a veteran team and they came
out and played that way.
I thought we came out with
more intensity there in the third
quarter, commented Wayne
Trace head coach Jim Linder.
We were able to get some
turnovers and that allowed us
to get some easy baskets. Our
kids played hard tonight and
I thought we showed a lot of
positives tonight.
The Wildcats lone bucket
of the period came from Trey
Smith with the Raiders on top
58-25 before Wayne Trace
settled on a 63-25 advantage
entering the final stanza.
We are very young and we
just need to learn and get bet-
ter, noted Smith.
Early on, Jefferson battled
the visiting Raiders. Wayne
Trace opened a quick 7-0 lead
after a trey by Gudakunst and
baskets from McClain and
Speice. The Wildcats, though,
hung around as they trailed
only 20-13 at the end of eight
minutes of action. Smith led
the Wildcats with five first-
quarter points with Nick Fitch
adding four. Dalton Hicks and
Ross Thompson also added
baskets.
Jefferson pulled within 25-17
in the second stanza on two
free throws from Smith but the
Raiders answered. Two straight
Ryan Kortokrax baskets and a
trey from Gudakunst pushed the
margin back to 32-17.
The Wildcats made one
more run, getting a basket by
Austin Jettinghoff and two
buckets from Smith to pull
within 34-23 at the intermis-
sion.
We are asking a lot out of
Trey as a freshman, noted the
Wildcat mentor. Ross played
extremely hard tonight and is
working very hard for us. Nick
played well tonight and had
one of his better games. We
are making progress but we
have to stay positive and keep
working. We have some teams
coming up on the schedule
that we match up better with.
We played two pretty good
teams this weekend in LCC
and Wayne Trace.
Smith netted 17 points and
Fitch added eight markers for
the Wildcats, who drop to 3-8
on the season. Fitch also had
six boards and recorded a pair
of steals along with Thompson.
Hicks and Zach Ricker picked
up five caroms each.
Gudakunst paced Wayne
Trace with a dozen markers
followed by Corbin Linder and
Kortokrax with 11 each. Speice
and McClain posted 10 apiece
for the Raiders, who won for
the eighth straight time in mov-
ing to 9-1.
Devin Wenzlick topped the
Raiders on the boards with six
with Speice dishing out three
assists and adding five steals.
Jake Arend, Linder and Sinn
all had three steals and Arend
added three assists.
In the reserve contest,
Wayne Trace forced Jefferson
into 13 turnovers in the first
quarter and posted a 22-1 lead
after one period en route to a
50-24 victory.
Brock Worden led the
Raiders (8-2) with 15 points
while Gabe Wobler added 11.
Tyler Rice topped the
Wildcats (1-9) with nine points
and Kurt Wollenhaupt chipped
in eight.
Wayne Trace returns to
action on Thursday in hosting
Ayersville in Green Meadows

visits Lincolnview in Northwest
Conference play on Friday.

Schimmoeller boys lead
Big Green over Rockets
By BOB WEBER
The Delphos Herald
btzweber@bright.net
OTTOVILLE Saturday
night, the Ottoville Big Green
welcomed the Rockets of
Pandora-Gilboa for a Putnam
County League boys basketball
game.
Both teams came into the
contest looking for their first
league win on the year. After
a close first quarter, the Big
Green outscored the Rockets
the next three quarters, leading
to a 52-37 win.
The first quarter saw both
teams coming out shooting the
ball very well. The Rockets of
head coach Josh Klear got start-
ed quickly behind the hot hand
of 6-2 junior Seth Schmenk (6
points) and fellow 6-0 junior
Brian Schneck (a deep 3 from
the left side) accounting for
nine of their teams 12 points
in the quarter.
The Big Green also looked
to one of their junior leaders in
6-3 Luke Schimmoeller, who
netted eight points of his own,
six coming from two 3-point-
ers drilled from the left side.
Big Green head coach
Todd Turnwald praised
Schimmoellers effort on the
evening: Luke needs to be sick
more often. Hes had two real
good games of late. He had the
flu last week and he has a little
bit of strep throat going on now.
He had a heck of a game; not
feeling well and goes out there
and takes three charging fouls
on the Rockets; just shows the
character of that kid.
The second quarter saw the
other Schimmoeller, Lukes
older brother Derek, take over
the game as he tossed in 10
of the 18 points the Big Green
scored in the quarter. He was
6-6 from the foul line during the
quarter. What made the effort
of Schimmoeller so impressive
was that he had left the game at
the 1:41 mark in the first with
an apparent shoulder injury;
however, he was able to return
and lead his squad to a 30-23
lead going into halftime.

start playing with more con-
fidence and more relaxed.
Well keep working to get
better.
In toto, Ottawa-Glandorf
missed all three of its 3-point
tries; notched 3-of-8 singles
(37.5%); seized 25 off the
glass (8 offensive) as Jill
Rosselit had four; had 15
steals (Anna Bellman 4); and
amassed 14 fouls. They enter-
tain Liberty Center Tuesday.
We want to beat teams
down the floor. We want those
easier looks before a team can
set up in its half-court defense;
that makes things better for
us, Yant added. We play a
lot of girls because we have a
lot of quality depth and I think
that takes a toll on the other
team. We were deeper than
St. Johns and I think we wore
them down.
In junior varsity action,
O-G stayed perfect (13-0)
with a 30-23 triumph.
Megan Schecklehoff led

Rebekah Fischer and Halie

Titans
By PAUL NEWBERRY
The Associated Press
ATLANTA Matt Ryan
wont have to answer that
question anymore.
Neither will Tony
Gonzalez.
Theyre both
playoff winners.
Finally.
Ryan got over
the postseason
hump in his fifth
season, guiding the
Atlanta Falcons
to an improb-
able comeback in the final
half-minute for a 30-28 vic-
tory over the gritty Seattle
Seahawks in an NFC divi-
sional game Sunday.
If Ryan was feeling relief,
imagine what was going
through Gonzalezs mind.
The 16-year veteran, in what
is likely the final season
of a Hall-of-Fame career,
removed the only blotch
from his brilliant record with
his first playoff win.
No wonder he broke down
in tears when it was over.
Ive cried after a loss. But
never a win, said Gonzalez,
who had been 0-5 in the
postseason. I thought it was
over. Sixteen years. Six play-
off games. I was like, Here
we go again. Especially with
that big lead. I thought it just
wasnt meant to be.
The Falcons (14-3) led
20-0 at halftime and were
still up 27-7 going to the
fourth quarter. No team had
ever blown such a daunt-
ing lead in the final period
of a playoff game. But the
Seahawks, led by Russell
Wilson, nearly pulled off a
historic win.
Wilson passed for two
touchdowns and ran for
another, then led a drive that
looked like the game-winner.
He completed three passes
for 50 yards, the last of them
a short throw to Marshawn
Lynch that the bruising run-
ner took all the way to the
Falcons 3.
On the next play, after the
rattled Falcons were penal-
ized for too many players
on the field, Lynch powered
over from the 2 to give the
Seahawks (12-6) their first
lead of the day, 28-27 with
31 seconds remaining.
Ryan and Gonzalez went
back to work.
First, Ryan hit a deep pass
to Harry Douglas right in
front of the Atlanta bench, a
22-yard completion to mid-
field. Then, with one tim-
eout remaining, Ryan went
to Gonzalez on a 19-yard
throw over the middle. The
Falcons quickly stopped the
clock again and Matt Bryant
connected on a 49-yard field
goal with 8 seconds left for
the victory.
Atlanta will host the NFC
championship game for the
first time next Sunday against
the San Francisco 49ers,
another team that features a
mobile quarterback.
The Falcons
overcame their rep-
utation for choking
in the playoffs, win-
ning their first post-
season game since
the 2004 season.
Ryan came into
the game with an
0-3 mark in the playoffs,
including a crushing loss to
Green Bay two years ago
when the Falcons were in
the same position, the NFCs
top-seeded team with home-
field advantage in the play-
offs.
Now, hell no longer be
asked why he cant win in the
playoffs.
Bryant made his third
game-winning kick of the
season. But hed never made
one like this, with so much
on the line.
Wilson finished with 385
yards passing and led the
Seahawks in rushing with 60
yards on seven carries.
A botched squib kick
by the Falcons gave Seattle
the ball at its own 46 and a
chance at one more come-
back. But Wilson threw a
short pass that only picked up
6 yards, forcing a desperation
heave into the end zone on
the final play.
Falcons receiver Julio
Jones, who had practiced for
just such a situation during
the week, went in on defense
and leaped up to make the
interception.
Ryan had a couple of
interceptions but threw three
touchdown passes, tying a
Falcons playoff record. He
completed 24-of-35 for 250
yards the first time hes
eclipsed 200 yards in the
postseason.
The scoring passes were
1-yarder to Gonzalez, who
made a leaping grab in the
back of the end zone; a
47-yarder to Roddy White
that stretched the lead to 20-0
late in the second quarter; and
a 5-yarder to Jason Snelling, a
quick throw after a fake pitch
to Jones, gave the Falcons a
seemingly comfortable edge
late in the third period.
Wilson took over from
there, running 1 yard for a
touchdown to make it 27-14,
then going to Zach Miller
on a 3-yard touchdown pass
that closed the gap to 27-21.
Ryans second interception,
an ill-advised deep throw
into double coverage, helped
keep the Seahawks alive.
But the Seahawks will
likely spend the offseason
kicking themselves for that
last Falcons drive and for
squandering two scoring
chances in the first half.
On fourth-and-1 at the
Atlanta 11, Seattle passed on
a field goal and a chance to
give the ball to Lynch, their
beast of a back. Fullback
Michael Robinson was
stuffed for a 1-yard loss by
safety William Moore.
With the clock wind-
ing down before halftime,
Seattle used all its timeouts
and wound up regretting it
when Wilson was sacked by
Jonathan Babineaux at the
Atlanta 20. Time ran out
before the Seahawks could
get off another play, sending
Atlanta to the locker room
still up by 20.
Patriots 41, Texans 28
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. Tom
Brady made history. Now its his
coachs turn.
The Patriots quarterback added
to a string of postseason success
that stretches back more than a
decade, earning his 17th playoff
win to break a tie with his boyhood
idol, Joe Montana, for most by a
quarterback.
After New Englands 41-28 vic-
tory over the Houston Texans on
Sunday night, Bill Belichick needs
two more playoff wins to match
Tom Landrys NFL high of 20. If
Belichick gets there this season,
hed also tie Chuck Noll for most
Super Bowl championships by a
coach with four.
First, the Baltimore Ravens
stand in the way next Sunday in
a rematch of last years AFC title
game.
Sunday was Bradys day to
reach a milestone. His first postsea-
son win came in the 2001 season,
which ended with his first Super
Bowl title. Now hes guiding the
NFLs most productive offense into
his sixth AFC championship game
in his 13 seasons.
The Texans (13-5) lost four of
their last six games, starting with
a 42-14 rout by the Patriots (13-4)
on Dec. 10 on the same field where
their season ended.
Brady threw for three scores
and 344 yards and seldom-used
running back Shane Vereen, see-
ing more action because Danny
Woodhead hurt his thumb on the
Patriots first offensive play, had
three touchdowns. Wes Welker had
eight catches for a career postsea-
son-high 131 yards and the defense
held Arian Foster to 90 yards rush-
ing, his first sub-100-yard playoff
game in the four hes had.
The Patriots also overcame the
loss of tight end Rob Gronkowski,
who broke the left arm he origi-
nally broke on Nov. 18 in a 59-24
win over the Indianapolis Colts and
needs season-ending surgery, a
person with knowledge of the injury
told The Associated Press.
Gronkowski missed the first
game against the Texans, one of
five he sat out after his first injury,
and it didnt matter.
The Texans were more com-
petitive on Sunday and trailed
only 17-13 at halftime as Foster
scored on a 1-yard run and Shayne
Graham kicked a 55-yard field goal
in the last 1:11 before intermission.
But the Patriots scored on two
of their first three series in the third
quarter on Stevan Ridleys 8-yard
run and Bradys 5-yard pass to
Brandon Lloyd that made it 31-13.
Lloyd scored just six plays after
Rob Ninkovich ended a Houston
threat with an interception that gave
New England the ball at its 37-yard
line.
The Patriots needed just one
play after taking over on downs
early in the fourth quarter, scoring
on an outstanding over-the-shoul-
der catch by Vereen for a 33-yard
touchdown and a 38-13 advantage.
The third-string back finished
with 124 total yards 83 on five
receptions and 41 on seven car-
ries.
On the very first play, Danieal
Manning returned the kickoff 94
yards before being hauled down
by Devin McCourty at the Patriots
12. But all the Texans could get out
of that was a 27-yard field goal by
Shayne Graham.
The Patriots punted on their first
two series, then took the lead for
good on Vereens 1-yard run follow-
ing Bradys consecutive completions
of 13 yards to Ridley, 25 to Vereen
and 14 to Aaron Hernandez.
The Texans offense got going
again in the fourth quarter but it was
too late. Matt Schaubs touchdown
passes of 25 yards to DeVier Posey
and 1 yard to Foster in the last 12
minutes just made the margin of
defeat closer.
Jefferson senior Geoff Ketcham wrestles Logan Ferrell
from Tippecanoe at 285 pounds Saturday at the Lima
Senior Spartan Invitational. Ketcham finished first, along
with fellow seniors Colin McConnahea (195) and Quinten
Wessell (220) as the Wildcats were 8th in the 16-team
event. (Photo submitted)
Roundup
The third quarter saw the
Rockets try to battle back
on the road but the Big
Green would have noth-
ing of it as they outscored
the visitors 11-5 and extend-
ed their lead to 41-28. The
game was really decided in
the middle quarters where
the Big Green outscored the
Rockets 29-16.
The Big Green received
a nice all-around game out
of 6-2 sophomore Brandt
Landin (5 assists) as he tal-
lied six of his eight points in
the third quarter, helping the
team to its fifth win in the last
seven games.
One of the things that have
led to the recent success for
the Big Green has been their
knack of getting to the foul
line, especially late in the
game.
Coach Turnwald knows
the importance of his teams
performance at the line:
Were shooting around 72
percent from the line for the
season and shot 16-of-20
(80%) tonight. Thats the dif-
ference for us to start scor-
ing some points in knock-
ing down some free throws
because were getting there.
Its nice to see the kids get-
ting rewarded for all the extra
time theyre putting in shoot-
ing foul shots.
The Big Green went
4-of-6 from the line in the
final stanza and outscored
the Rockets 11-9 in the final
eight minutes to come away
with their first PCL win on
the year.
P-G (2-9, 0-4 PCL) was
led by Schmenks 15 points
on the night. The Rockets
shot a very respectable 12-25
(48%) from inside the arc;
however, they were only 2-14
(14%) beyond the arc and 7-13
(54%) from the stripe. They
hauled down 24 boards and
committed 13 turnovers and
host Liberty-Benton Friday
night in a BVC tilt starting
with a 6:30 JV game.
The Big Green (6-7, 1-1
PCL) were led by Derek
Schimmoeller with 19 points,
followed closely by Luke
Schimmoeller with 16. The
hosts shot 44 percent from
the field by going 12-17 from
inside the arc and 4-9 from
3-point land. They only had
six turnovers and hauled down
18 boards (Ryan Honigford
6). The Big Green will next
play Friday as they travel to
Miller City.
The JV game went to
the Big Green 23-16 behind
freshman Dustin Trenkamps
12 points.

Miller City
upends Lincolnview
By NICK JOHNSON
DHI Correspondent
sports@timesbulletin.com
MIDDLE POINT
The Lincolnview Lancers
welcomed the Miller City
Wildcats to Lincolnview High
School on Saturday night for
high school boys basket-
ball action and the Wildcats
escaped with a 58-56 win.
Miller City started the
game with six points from
Ross Kaufman, jumping out
to a 6-5 lead in the first quar-
ter. After the Lancers used
a timeout, Justis Dowdy
drained a 3-pointer. Miller
City countered with a Adam
Niese 3-point play and a bas-
ket from Austin Lammers to
take an 11-10 lead at the end
of the first.
The Lancers started the
second stanza on a 6-0 run
with a layup from Kade Carey
and two more from Conner
McCleery to give them a
16-11 lead. The Wildcats got
four points from Kaufman to
help bring the score to a tie
at 16. Miller City went on
a 10-2 run after that, which
included 3-pointers from
Adam Drummelsmith and
Russell Niese. Lincolnview
countered with a 7-0 run as
Kyle Williams knocked in a
3-pointer and Carey added a
layup to make the score 29-28,
Lancers. Drummelsmith
nailed a 3 to send Miller City
into the half with a 31-29
lead.
The Lancers started the
second half with a huge 15-4
run giving them a 44-35
lead, getting eight points
from Williams and four from
Carey. Miller City used a run
of its own to cut the defi-
cit to 44-42 as they got five
points from Drummelsmith;
the game went into the fourth
stanza with Linconlview lead-
ing 44-42.
In the fourth quarter,
neither team could separate
and the game looked like
it would come down to
whomever had the ball last.
The teams fought to ties at
49, 51 and 53 before Miller
City used a timeout with
1:41 left. The Wildcats
got layups from Kaufman
and Cory Heuerman but
sandwiched in between that
was a Lancers 3-pointer
from Dowdy, to make the
score 57-56 Miller City.
Lincolnview got the ball with
26 seconds left and looked
to take the last shot. After
killing some clock, they
used another timeout with
10 seconds left. The Lancers
couldnt convert on the final
play, however, and couldnt
get a shot off before turning
the ball over.
Miller City got a late foul
shot from Heuerman to give
the Wildcats a 58-56 victory.
The Lancers had three
players in double digits.
Carey had 14, Dowdy had
11 and Williams had a team-
high 20 points.
The Wildcats got a big
game from Kaufman, who
had a game-high 25 points.
Drummelsmith added in 11
points on the night.
The Lancers fall to 3-9 on
the season with the loss. They
host Jefferson Friday.

Teen sharing
room with messy
cousins
Dear Annie: I am
a 13-year-old girl,
and I love reading
your column. I hope
you can help me. My
uncle Ted got a
divorce and
had to sell
his house.
My family
was happy to
let him stay
with us until
he found a
new home.
That was two
years ago,
but none of
us seems to
mind.
Heres the actual
problem: Uncle Ted
has two daughters who
come over every other
weekend. I love having
my cousins here,
but they are slobs.
Their mother allows
them to be this way
at home, and theyve
brought that same
sense of style to
our house. They both
sleep in my room and
are amazingly messy.
They never make their
beds or put their dirty
clothes in the laundry
room, and by the time
they leave, my room
looks like a pigsty.
How do I tell them
to clean up their act?
My Room, Not
Theirs
Dear My Room:
First talk to your
parents. They
undoubtedly have
rules for their home,
and your cousins
behavior should be
included. Explain the
problem to them and
ask for their help. But
you also can speak up.
Its your room. Its OK
to tell your cousins
that you expect them
to share the cleanup as
well as the fun.
Dear Annie:
Years ago, some dear
friends asked us to
invest in their sons
new business. They
said all the partnership
agreements, contracts,
etc., were finalized.
Mutual friends advised
us not to give them
any money. They said
there were rumors
floating around about
our friends credibility.
We thought they were
mistaken. We
were idiots.
We gave
their son several
t h o u s a n d
dollars. The
business lasted
for two months.
There was no
contract or
p a r t n e r s h i p
agreement. Our
money was lost,
and because
they were our friends,
we forgave them. We
didnt realize they
were con artists. They
took our money and
bought a luxury car
and a second home.
Theyve been sued
five times in the past 12
years, mostly for failed
business ventures.
I finally wised up and
ended the friendship
when I caught them
trying to extort money
from a department
store by claiming the
wife slipped on the
floor when I knew
she hadnt. Instead of
seeing a doctor, she
went on vacation.
Please tell your
readers to do due
diligence if they plan
to participate in any
business venture with
friends or family. An
attorney and proper
legal documents are
mandatory, and they
should never take
someones word for
it. Dont make our
mistake. We thought
we were helping our
friends. As it turned
out, they were helping
themselves to our
pockets. Wiser but
Sadder
Dear Wiser:
Your letter serves
as a cautionary tale
for anyone who is
considering investing
in a friends or a
relatives business.
Even people who arent
con artists can mess up
the paperwork, leaving
you at risk. If the
statute of limitations
hasnt expired, please
consider seeking
damages from your
friends for their
fraudulent practices.

TUESDAY, JANUARY 15, 2013
It looks like you could make two
valuable friends in the year ahead
who will prove to be helpful, each in
their independent areas of expertise.
Theres a chance the first pal will be
instrumental in leading you to the
second one.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) -- You seem to be better equipped
to handle mental assignments than to
do anything physical. Take care of
the brainwork, and let others do the
heavy lifting.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19)
-- Although youll have good earning
abilities, conversely you could also
have strong urges to spend. Dont
allow the latter to run the show and
put you in debt.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
-- You could be far more fortunate
than usual working on endeavors
or enterprises that you personally
initiate and/or manage. If there is
something youre anxious to get
rolling, dont wait on others.

Developments taking place behind
the scenes of which youll be unaware
are likely to have a constructive
effect upon your material well-being.
Soon all will become clear to you.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
-- Youll get a desired opportunity
to strengthen a troubling relationship

most of it; good friends can be hard
to come by.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
-- Once your ambitions are aroused,
theres no stopping you, as events
are likely to prove. In fact, youre
capable of accomplishing what even
you thought to be impossible.

a good student, youre likely to
learn something through a personal
experience that youll be able to put

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) --
In an endeavor that mutually affects
you and your special someone, dont
make a move without discussing it
with your partner, who might have
some good ideas on how to handle it.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) --
Regardless of what is asked of you,
perform to the best of your abilities.

well will provide you with enormous

can. Youll be better able to cope
with things knowing that you tried
your best.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec.
21) -- It doesnt matter how busy you

what really counts is how much you
complete. If youre smart, youll be
mindful of your limitations.

you to be luckier than usual in the
year ahead in terms of achieving
long-held dreams. This is possible
even if the effort you put forth is only
nominal.

the family that you would usually
reserve for weekends.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19)

What works out well for you is likely
to do so for those with whom youre
directly involved. This is because
everyone is apt to be looking out for
one anothers interests.

-- Think positive and keep the faith,
because at the very times when things
look like theyre going against you,
your associates are likely to come
through. Theyll not let you down.

Even though it might look like youre
behaving extravagantly, what youre
really doing is trying your best to
make a solid investment of good will
in your relationships with others.

ambition. If you want to succeed, you
must be as forthright as possible.

youve been restless lately and have

this might be a good time to make
some travel plans. Target a place that
youve always wanted to visit.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
-- This could be a profitable day in
more ways than one. Although you

learn something extremely valuable
in the process.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
-- Persons with whom youll have
one-on-one dealings, either socially
and commercially, are likely to treat
you in a more bountiful fashion
than usual. Be just as generous in
return.

Your motives for helping others will
be honest and sincere, yet owing to
conditions of which youre unaware,
youll be the one who stands to
benefit the most from your actions.

21) -- Although your rabbits foot
might not be working in high-risk
situations, you still could be very
lucky when dealing with someone
with whom you share strong
emotional bonds.

Argo, Les
Miserables win
best-pic Globes
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.
(AP) Argo is in big with
the Golden Globes, but not
so much with the Academy
Awards. Lincoln is sitting
pretty with the Oscars but
was mostly left out in the cold
at the Globes.
Sundays Globes left the
Feb. 24 Academy Awards
picture still muddled, with
the Iran hostage thriller
Argo winning for best
drama and director for Ben
Affleck, a prize he already
knows he cant win at the
Oscars, where he wasnt
even nominated.
The night featured for-
mer President Bill Clinton
getting a standing ovation
after introducing Lincoln
and Jodie Foster coming out
without really coming out
as this years winner of the
Cecil B. DeMille Lifetime
Achievement Award.
Besides the three wins for
Les Miserables and two
for Argo, the show was
a mixed bag, with awards
spreads around a number of
films.
Steven Spielbergs
Lincoln came in leading the
Globes with seven nomina-
tions but won only one award,
best actor for Daniel Day-
Lewis. Lincoln also leads
the Oscars with 12 nomina-
tions, with Spielberg, Day-
Lewis and co-star Sally Field
all in the running for possible
third Oscars.
Les Miserables was
named best musical or com-
edy and won acting honors
for Hugh Jackman and Anne
Hathaway.
Zero Dark Thirty star
Jessica Chastain won the
Globe for dramatic actress
as a CIA agent obsessively
pursuing Bin Laden.
Other acting prizes went
to Jennifer Lawrence as best
musical or comedy actress for
the oddball romance Silver
Linings Playbook and
Christoph Waltz as support-
ing actor for the slave-revenge
tale Django Unchained.
