Kiwanis celebrate 50th anniversary

BY NANCY SPENCER nspencer@delphoshderald.com DELPHOS In the spring of 1963, gas was 29 cents, JFK was president, the average home cost $12,650, a loaf of bread was 22 cents and on April 30, 1963, the Delphos Kiwanis Club charter was penned. Ohio District Governor Craig Wallace noted these historical facts as he congratulated the local service organization on its 50th anniversary Wednesday evening at the Firemens Club. You have changed your community, Wallace said addressing the 35 club members in attendance and their spouses. We can look around Delphos and see the projects the Kiwanis have accomplished and the impact it has had. The K-kids are a great group and impact your youth. I have a feeling the next 50 years will be even better. The Kiwanis Club has been prominent in the community, completing playground equipment projects at three Delphos parks and picking up events left by the disbanded Lions Club, including the Fourth of July celebration and the annual Pancake and Sausage Day. The group has also stepped forward to assist with Hometown Christmas. Proceeds from Kiwanis events are also put back in to the community through donations to local post proms, the Rotary Club Music in the Park series and Little See KIWANIS, page 10

St. Johns to offer Once Upon a Mattress

St. Johns High School will present Once Upon a Mattress at 7:30 p.m. today and Friday in the Robert A. Arnzen gymnasium. Tickets are available by calling 419-692-5371. General admission tickets and reserved seating are available both nights. Above is the cast. Once Upon a mattress is based on the story The Princess and the Pea by Hans Christian Andersen. The book was written by Jay Thompson, Marshall Barer and Dean Fuller with music by Mary Rodgers and lyrics by Marshall Barer. In this story, a love-sick nobleman seeking to marry his sweetheart does his best to find his ruling prince a suitable bride so that he himself may wed. No one in Prince Dauntlesss kingdom is permitted to marry until the prince himself exchanges vows a problem hindered by the fact that the princes overprotective mother, Queen Aggravain, has thus far thwarted all efforts to marry her son. This does not sit well with the honorable Sir Harry, a man whose heart longs to wed the fair Lady Larken, and after a long and arduous journey specifically designed to find the prince a bride, Sir Harry returns to his kingdom to present Princess Winnifred of the swamps. Immediately stricken by the princess, Prince Dauntless sets into motion plans for a lavish wedding as his scheming mother cooks up a test thats sure to send his marital plans awry. The St. Johns production features a cast of 30 students grades 8-12. The musical is directed by Susie Slawinski, St. Johns choir director. (Charlie Ashby photo)

Fire out hours after fuel barges explode in Alabama

MOBILE, Ala. (AP) Today firefighters extinguished a huge blaze that erupted hours earlier when two fuel barges exploded in Mobile, Ala., leaving three people with critical burns and forcing the evacuation of crew from a nearby cruise ship. The cause of the fire, which started Wednesday night, remained under investigation, but it was believed to be accidental, Mobile Fire-Rescue spokesman Steve Huffman said in a statement. Firefighters from Mobile and Coast Guard officials responded after 8:30 p.m. CDT Wednesday to a pair of explosions involving the gas barges in the Mobile River east of downtown. Additional explosions followed over the next few hours. Authorities say three people were brought to University of South Alabama Medical Center for burn-related injuries. The three were in critical condition early today, according to hospital nursing administrator Danny Whatley. Across the river, the Carnival Triumph, the cruise ship that became disabled in the Gulf of Mexico last February before it was towed to Mobiles port, was evacuated, said Alan Waugh, who lives at the Fort Conde Inn in downtown Mobile, across the river from the scene of the explosions. Waugh saw the blasts and said throngs of Carnival employees and others were clustered on streets leading toward the river as authorities evacuated the shipyard.

The initial blast took place in a ship channel near the George C. Wallace Tunnel which carries traffic from Interstate 10 under the Mobile River, Vega said. The river runs south past Mobile and into Mobile Bay, which in turn flows into the Gulf of Mexico. The tunnels were still open and operating, Mobile fire officials said in a statement. As daybreak approached, the Mobile Fire-Rescue Departments fireboat Phoenix was moving toward the barges, checking to make sure their mooring lines were secured, the fire department said in a statement. The cause of the explosion was not immediately clear, Huffman said.

Ohio man gets prison for Facebook rants
CLEVELAND (AP) An Ohio man who had been arrested for drunkendriving has been sentenced to 17 months in prison for subsequent Facebook rants against police and judges. The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports that 27-year-old William Bement was sentenced Wednesday after pleading guilty to attempted retaliation. The North Olmsted man was given probation on a drunken-driving conviction on Feb. 5. Thats when authorities say he took to Facebook to post comments such as stop shooting up schools and start shooting cops in courthouses. Another said, Kill your local judges!!!!!!! Bement told the judge Wednesday that he was just venting and never intended for anybody to feel threatened. He said he did it for shock value. A prosecutor said someone else could have read the postings and acted on them.

Medicaid expansion plan in Ohio takes another hit

BY JOHN SEEWER TOLEDO (AP) Gov. John Kasichs plan to expand Medicaid health insurance coverage to more low-income Ohioans as part of the state budget has come up against another roadblock from Republicans who control the Legislature. The Senates version of the state budget wont include the governors proposed Medicaid expansion, Senate President Keith Faber said Wednesday, but he said that Medicaid reform is not dead in Ohio. Whether that includes Medicaid expansion a key element of President Barack Obamas signature health care law is not as clear. Lawmakers in the Ohio House and Senate will begin working on a Medicaid plan that is separate from the state budget, said Faber, who was careful to say that the focus will be on reform and longterm cost savings, not just the expansion of the taxpayerfunded health insurance program. That may include adding more people to the Medicaid system, but it has to include flexibility to perform and transform a system that works better for Ohioans, Faber said. Republicans in the Ohio House already had stripped the Medicaid proposal from the budget, but supporters were hopeful the Senate could revive it. Kasich did not appear discouraged by the change in direction by the Legislature. I dont care how they do it. Just do it, he said. The governor has spent the past three months trying to persuade state lawmakers to go along with extending Medicaid coverage by drawing on a wide-range of people for support, from hospital executives to food bank operators. Hes also appealed to the spiritual side of his fellow GOP legislators, telling them that the weak and vulnerable should not be left behind. Im just going to keep at it because I think its the right thing for our state, Kasich said Wednesday. Roughly 366,000 Ohio residents would be up for coverage under the expansion beginning in 2014 if its approved. The Medicaid expansion is one of the key components of the federal Affordable Care Act. Of the nearly 30 million people expected to gain insurance coverage under the law, about half would get it from the expansion. A Supreme Court ruling allowed states to decide for themselves whether to expand the program. Kasich has said that going forward with the expansion Deli will allow theIn statethe to recapture Ohio taxpayers federal money. Many GOP lawmakers are averse to Obamas law and resistant to expanding government programs. And some question whether the federal government will keep up with its share of the costs or pass along a bigger chunk of the bill to the states. Faber, a Republican from Celina, said Wednesday that any Medicaid proposal must include cost savings and some flexibility on the part of the federal government. The Kasich administration has been in talks with federal officials for months over whether President Barack Obamas health law allows any flexibility to use the money from Washington to provide private coverage to some who would eligible under the Medicaid expansion. Lawmakers in Ohio still have many questions about the proposal and concerns about the federal governments ability to pay the entire cost of the expansion for three years and 90 percent of the cost down in the following years.

Ohio teen arrested after alleged threat

NEW CARLISLE (AP) Authorities say a 15-year-old western Ohio girl is in a juvenile detention facility after saying she wished she could blow up the school. The teen attends Tecumseh High School in New Carlisle, near Dayton. The Clark County Sheriffs Office said she is charged with two counts of delinquency by reason of inducing panic. Shes also charged with delinquency by reason of being an unruly juvenile. The Dayton Daily News reports the girl first violated rules by using a cellphone in school, then cursed school officials and made the comment about blowing up the school in front of parents and other students. School officials and the sheriffs office said she was taken into custody because they are intolerant of such threats and behavior.

SHEERAN and JULIE CARR SMYTH COLUMBUS (AP) As he enters the race for Ohio governor, Cuyahoga Countys Democratic leader and former FBI agent Ed FitzGerald must convince voters that being Public Official 14 in a county corruption probe didnt imply wrongdoing. Republicans are seizing on the connection to the probe, calling Democrat FitzGerald an unusually weak candidate. FitzGerald, the leader of Cuyahoga County government in Cleveland, officially entered the campaign Wednesday to challenge Ohio Republican Gov. John Kasich in next years election and called the incumbent and his policies divisive and extreme. The county executive and former Lakewood mayor kicked off his campaign in a crowded Cleveland ballroom, describing the Kasich administration as lobbyistdirected, cutting school aid and backing tax policies that benefit the rich. The 44-yearold calls himself a reformer

Amish seek compromise with Ohio county

KENTON (AP) The Amish in one Ohio county say they want to work with county health officials who voted to evict them from homes that dont have proper wells and outhouses. An Amish community leader in northwest Ohios Kenton County apologized to members of the health board Wednesday and said they are seeking a compromise. Last month, eviction notices were issued for two new homes built by the Amish because they didnt have required septic systems for their outhouses. The Columbus Dispatch reports that the board seemed open to compromise. Board members said one builder had designed a cap for his well and has agreed to do other work to bring it to code. The board also said families can design and build their own watertight tanks for under their outhouses.

Using correct fertilizer is important

BY JIM LOPSHIRE Extension Educator OSU-Extension Paulding County Fertilization is an important part of landscape maintenance, particularly in areas where much of the native topsoil is removed during development and replaced by subsoil that is deficient in essential nutrients for plant growth. Unfortunately, fertilization is a rather simple cultural practice made complex and confusing by a wide variety of fertilizer products on the market today from general-purpose garden fertilizer to specialty products, such as pre-mixed liquid fertilizer concentrates, water-soluble crystals, slow-release fertilizers, azalea/camellia fertilizers and rose specials. Plants generally do not care whether a fertilizer is granulated, liquified, encapsulated, or pelletized. Plants simply want nutrients in any form they can use. Fertilizers, however, differ in nutrient content and release duration. The type of fertilizer you select should be based not only on its cost but also on the types of plants being fertilized, the existing nutrient content of the soil, and the type of growth response desired. Liquid or water-soluble fertilizers, for instance, are often used on annuals and herbaceous perennials immediately after transplanting because their nutrients can be absorbed quickly and used by the plant.

Food, farms, jobs and economic growth

BY JOHN CRABTREE johnc@cfra.org Center for Rural Affairs Recently, Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and Representative Chellie Pingree (D-ME) introduced the Local Farms, Food and Jobs Act in the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives. The sponsors worked diligently to write commonsense legislation that addresses the infrastructure challenges and informational barriers that family farmers and ranchers face in their efforts to develop local and regional food systems. By overcoming these barriers and making smart investments that will expand business and marketing opportunities for family farmers and ranchers as well as increase consumer access to local, healthy foods, this legislation will help create jobs and economic growth on Americas country roads and small town mainstreets. The Local Farms, Food and Jobs Act is comprehensive, touching seven major Farm Bill sections - from credit and crop insurance to research,

That investment is small in overall farm bill terms roughly one-tenth of one percent of total farm bill spending but big in helping a growing sector of the food system flourish, while creating jobs and lasting economic benefits to family farmers, ranchers, consumers and Americas rural cities and small towns.

fuel tank on your farm, then youll need a full SPCC plan which is much more tedious and expensive to conduct (Ohio Country Journal, MidApril, 2013). What in a SPCC plan? The purpose of the SPCC plan is to prevent discharges of fuel or oil products into the environment. The plan includes information about all storage containers including volume, sizes, and materials stored; secondary containment facilities; how you will control a spill if a spill occurs; requires inspection and testing records; training; maintenance records; security; emergency response; and how waste products will be disposed. The plan also includes information about personnel on the farm (who is in charge) and information about the farming business operation. Any employee handling fuel or oil must be trained on the plan and what to do in emergency situations if a spill occurs. The plan needs to be updated every 5 years or sooner if additional fuel or oil storage is added to the facility. The plan is kept on the farm and needs to be available if USEPA shows up for an inspection. The SPCC plan includes an inventory of the entire farming operation. This includes all containers 55 gallons or greater. Some things that are exempt include fuel tanks on tractors and combines or harvesting equipment. Mobile fuel tanks, nurse tanks, and heating oil are also exempt but they should be noted on the SPCC plan (Ohio Country Journal, Mid-April, 2013). The secondary containment and storage of fuel and oil must be large enough to contain any spill and is designed to contain 110 percent of the largest container in the containment area. Secondary containment is required for any operation with greater than 1,320 gallons of above ground fuel or oil products. The containment area is designed to prevent discharge and to make cleanup easy. If secondary containment cannot be constructed or if diking cannot be used, then a professional engineer is required to certify the operation (Ohio Ag Manager). Double walled fuel and oil containers are another option, however; they are expensive and hard to find due to the implementation of these new USEPA rules.

The National Holiday er, uh, the NFL Draft (Im sorry, the NFL Player Selection Meeting!) is upon us tonight! Can I tell you that I dont like the 3-day format! I was getting used to attending Draft parties on Saturdays basically and having healthy disagreements with fellow attendees regarding their teams and my team! Come to think of it, we generally agreed that the Cowboys drafts under Mr. Jerry Jones and Gil Brandt toward the end of the Landry era were rotten, lousy, terrible and some might say mediocre! Oh, well, Paul Tagliabue, Roger Goodell and the powers-that-be didnt ask for my 2-pennies worth, especially with the dollar signs that supposedly were dancing in their heads like sugar plums at Christmas time from the networks should they make this move! I wonder if I am in the minority in this regard because if Im not, I am sure NFL offices would have been inundated with complaints in the time since they did this starting in 2010. Some interesting tidbits about the Draft that I didnt know or wasnt necessarily sure about: it began in 1936 with John Jacob Jay Berwanger from the University of Chicago, the first winner of the Downtown Athletic Club Trophy in 1935 (the next year renamed the Heisman Trophy) wait, UC had a football team? In the Big Ten Conference? the first pick by

Let the arguments begin!

the Philadelphia Eagles. There is some discrepancy as to the reasons why he ended up being traded to Da Bears under George Papa Bear Halas and never played a down of professional football. I will go with the explanation I read in The Milwaukee Journal archives remember the saying the more things change ? the Iggles didnt believe they could meet his salary demands of $1,000 per game! He also didnt sign with Da Bears so he could remain an amateur and try out for the 1936 Summer Olympic team in the decathlon; after he didnt make the cut, he and Halas couldnt agree on a salary and he retired from the game. Another item: the Draft used to be held on weekdays until 1988. The Mr. Irrelevant moniker the final player selected, was begun in 1976. Now, as far as who should be the first pick and who should draft whom, I havent a clue. When you have as bad a track record as I do in my fantasy football leagues and as rotten luck, too: I thought picking Toby Gerhart from Minnesota was a great pick this past year with Adrian Pederson recovering from a bad knee injury and other guys at the draft agreed and then AD makes a MIRACULOUS recovery and has a ridiculous year! I should stay out of these types arguments. Unless, of course, its the Cowboys and the Draft Genius makes another

Frazier, Latos team up for Reds 1-0 win over Cubs

The Associated Press CINCINNATI Todd Frazier gave Mat Latos all the run support he needed and Latos gave the Cincinnati Reds exactly what they needed to finish off a 10-game homestand in style. Latos retired the first 10 batters and 15 of the first 16 he faced and mostly spared an overworked bullpen, Frazier hit a long home run and the Reds beat the Chicago Cubs 1-0 Wednesday. This is what we wanted so bad, Reds manager Baker said. This sets us straight for a couple of days. With one out in the sixth inning of a scoreless tie, Frazier blasted a 2-1 pitch from Jeff Samardzija 480 feet to straightaway center field to increase his team-leading home run total to six. The homer, which bounced high off the batters eye, is the longest at Great American Ball Park this season and the seventh-longest in the facilitys 11-year history. I was just trying to get a fastball, said Frazier, who became the first Cincinnati player to homer in a 1-0 win since Sean Casey against St. Louis on Aug. 26, 2004. I havent seen too many lately. I got one and I took advantage of it. I took a couple of steps and figured it was out but I didnt know how far until I saw it hit the (batters eye). Latos (1-0), the victim of two blown saves among his first four starts this season allowed four hits and a walk with four strikeouts. He had to rely solely on his 2- and 4-seam fastballs, too. It turned out not to be a problem. In the bullpen, I had a really good slider and changeup, said Latos, whos strung together 11 consecutive scoreless innings. I dont know what the hell happened. Its tough. Everybody in the big leagues can hit the fastball. I had to focus on hitting spots, keeping the ball down and away and getting them to hit it on the ground. Jonathan Broxton replaced Latos with two runners on base and nobody out in the eighth. Both runners moved up on Cody Ransoms sacrifice bunt but pinch-hitter Alfonso Soriano struck out and shortstop Zack Cozart went deep behind second base to flag down David DeJesuss grounder and throw him out to end the inning. I was going to throw it regardless because there were two outs, Cozart said. I saw out of the corner of my eye that he wasnt too close to the bag. Ive been struggling at the plate lately, so to make a play like that makes you feel pretty good. Cubs manager Dale Sveum said thats just the way its been going for the Cubs, who are 1-5 on their current road trip. That was an unbelievable play in that situation, he added. Aroldis Chapman pitched the ninth for his fourth save. Latoss effort left Cincinnatis starting pitchers with a combined 5-0 record and 1.54 ERA on the homestand. Samardzija (1-4) had his fourth consecutive loss after beating Pittsburgh on Opening Day. The righthander allowed seven hits and three walks with eight strikeouts and a wild pitch. The Reds had baserunners in each of the first five innings, including the third, which Devin Mesoraco and Latos led off with singles before Samardzija struck out Shin-Soo Choo, Cozart and Joey Votto the top three batters in Cincinnatis lineup. The Reds wrapped up the homestand, the first of two of 10 games on their schedule this season, with eight wins despite playing two games that lasted 13 innings, another that went 10, a third that was suspended almost 19 hours from one night to the next day by rain,and Wednesdays game, the start of which was delayed 89 minutes by rain. They won eight games on a homestand of 10 or fewer games for just the sixth time

stupid pick! I always love the argument that well, we cant replace so-and-so because who are we going to replace him with? in this particular case, it is Tony Romo. Well, why dont you draft someone that might be able to take his place or at least you could groom instead of relying on retreads and has-beens that really werent that great to begin with? When the quarterback you are grooming was an option quarterback in college and wasnt a great thrower as compared to many great throwers that have been drafted over the years well, you get the picture. You continue to address needs such as offensive line and secondary that you will need to address in two years because these buffoons you pick are not the greatest thing since sliced bread and dont address other needs with guys that CAN play such as quarterback. I am sure that fans of every team that is represented in our beloved Big D can lament with me on this! I am sorry: Im going to stay out of these arguments!

in franchise history and the second in two years. They went 8-2 against St. Louis, Arizona and Milwaukee on a homestand last July. This was a weird homestand, Cozart added. It was a battle every game.
NOTES: A sharp one-hopper by Julio Borbon, the second batter in the game, glanced off Latoss right foot. He recovered to grab the ball and throw Borbon out and stayed in the game after a couple of practice tosses in front of Baker and trainer Paul Lessard. Samardzijas effort to catch Choos bouncer in the bottom of the first left him with a slight cut on his pitching hand but it quickly closed enough to allow him to continue. Choo, who went into the game leading the major leagues with a .535 on-base percentage, has reached base at least once in all 21 of the games hes played this season. CARDINALS 4, NATIONALS 2 WASHINGTON Yadier Molina hit a 2-run single off Stephen Strasburg during St. Louis 3-run first inning and the Cardinals beat the Nationals 4-2 Wednesday to complete a sweep and give Washingtons All-Star ace the only 4-start losing streak of his young career. J a i m e Garcia (2-1) allowed a run on Bryce Harpers sixth-inning groundout but otherwise added to the offensive struggles of the Nationals, who have lost six consecutive home games and nine of their last 12 overall to fall to 10-11. Washington produced only four runs in the 3-game set, a rematch of the 2012 NL division series won by St. Louis. Needing to be nearly perfect given Washingtons lack of offense, Strasburg (1-4) struggled through a 26-pitch, 12-minute first inning. Strasburg, who hasnt won since opening day against Miami, settled down and threw 110 pitches over seven innings, giving up no other runs and a total of five hits, along with seven strikeouts. ROCKIES 6, BRAVES 5, 12 INNINGS DENVER Wilin Rosario scored on Yorvit Torrealbas single to left in the 12th inning as Colorado rallied in the ninth to deny Atlantas Tim Hudson his 200th career win. Michael Cuddyer and Josh Rutledge homered for the Rockies, who ended a 3-game skid behind 1-hit pitching by the bullpen over the last six innings. Matt Belisle (1-1), the fourth reliever used by Colorado, pitched two perfect frames. Rosario led off the 12th with a double to left off Luis Ayala (1-1). After Cuddyer was intentionally walked, Belisle struck out on a bunt attempt. Torrealba ripped a single to left and Justin Uptons throw home was wide as Rosario slid in with the winning run. DIAMONDBACKS 3, GIANTS 2, 10 INNINGS SAN FRANCISCO Pinch hitter Will Nieves delivered a sacrifice fly in the 10th inning to lift Arizona to a victory over San Francisco. Gerardo Parra and A.J. Pollack also drove in a run for the Diamondbacks, who beat the Giants in 11 innings Tuesday night. Didi Gregorius had two hits. Arizona led 2-1 before Brandon Crawford hit a tying homer off David Hernandez (1-0) with one out in the ninth. Crawford also doubled home a run in the seventh and finished with three hits. Matt Reynolds got three outs for his second save in as many days. Chad Gaudin (0-1) worked 2/3 of an inning in taking the loss. PIRATES 5, PHILLIES 3 PHILADELPHIA Brandon Inge got a pinch-hit tie-breaking RBI single in the eighth inning and Pittsburgh rallied to beat Philadelphia. Roy Halladay pitched six innings of 1-hit ball and Chase Utley and Ryan Howard hit upper-deck solo homers off Wandy Rodriguez, but Mike Adams (1-2) couldnt protect an eighth-inning lead. Pedro Alvarez hit a solo homer off Antonio Bastardo in the seventh and his RBI single in the fourth was the only hit off Halladay. Halladay struck out eight and walked two. Vin Mazzaro (1-0) retired the four batters he faced to earn the win. Mark Melancon worked the eighth and Jason Grilli finished for his ninth save in nine tries. METS 7, DODGERS 3, 10 INNINGS NEW YORK Jordany Valdespin hit a grand slam in the 10th inning and New York rallied past Los Angeles to save early sensation Matt Harvey from his first loss of the season. David Wright tied it with a 2-out single in the ninth off Los Angeles closer Brandon League, handed his first blown save in six chances. Matt Kemp homered and drove in three runs as the Dodgers grabbed a 3-1 lead against Harvey. John Buck led off the 10th with a single against Josh Wall (0-1) and Ike Davis walked on four pitches. Both moved up on Marlon Byrds sacrifice,and Lucas Duda was walked to load the bases. Bobby Parnell (1-0) worked around a leadoff walk in the 10th to get the win. PADRES 2, BREWERS 1 SAN DIEGO Edinson Volquez threw seven strong innings and Carlos Quentin hit his first home run of the season, helping San Diego snap Milwaukees 9-game winning streak. Volquez (1-3) allowed just five singles, struck out three and did not walk a batter, lowering his ERA from 8.84 to 6.39 as San Diego ended a 5-game skid. It marked only the fourth time in 127 starts that Volquez did not walk a batter. Marco Estrada (2-1) pitched 6 1/3 innings, allowing two runs, one earned, with two walks and three strikeouts. Huston Street worked the ninth for his third save in as many oppor-

Indians McAllister solid but loses to White Sox

The Associated Press CHICAGO Cleveland Indians starter Zach McAllister was able to wiggle through some early wildness against the Chicago White Sox with minimal damage. It was a big blow in the fifth off the bat of Alex Rios that was McAallisters ultimate unraveling. Rios hit a 2-run homer and Jeff Keppinger had two hits and drove in a run for the White Sox in a 3-2 win over the Indians on Wednesday. He had to dodge some traffic, especially early, Indians manager Terry Francona said of McAllister. But because of the use of his fastball, he keeps guys off the scoreboard. And they almost left with one run, he got ahead of Rios and fastball came across the wrong part of the plate even though it was elevated and he ran into it for two runs, two big runs. He kept competing and he kept them off the board. McAllister gave up five hits, three earned runs and walked five while striking out six in 5 2/3 innings. The Indians bullpen was even better, extending its scoreless streak to 19 consecutive innings. Rios connected in the fifth, driving the ball to left on a 0-2 pitch for his team-high sixth homer and a 3-0 lead. Unfortunately for the Indians, White Sox starter Jose Quintana was just a hair better. Quintana breezed through three perfect innings and then worked out of a jam in the fourth after the Indians loaded the bases. Michael Brantley reached on a leadoff single and moved to third on Mark Reynolds 1-out double to the right-field corner. Nick Swisher walked to load the bases but Ryan Raburn grounded into an inning-ending double play. A year ago Quintana was just trying to hang on to a spot in Chicagos starting rotation. His position is secure now, especially after another strong outing ended the teams 4-game losing streak. Hes been pitching great, said White Sox manager Robin Ventura. Maturitywise, hes just getting strong as far as the makeup of his belief that hes a big-leaguer. Last year, he was just trying to survive and it kind of felt game-to-game for a while. Quintana (2-0) allowed two runs and four hits in 5-plus innings to help the White Sox earn a split of the rain-shortened series. Im happy about the victory; thats the most important thing. We needed to get that win in there and its a start, Quintana said through a translator. I feel like Im learning still but I feel like Im a big part of this and a big part of this. I just have to keep making the necessary adjustments. Clevelands first three batters of the sixth got on base, with Jason Kipnis singling in Drew Stubbs. Nate Jones then replaced Quintana and Reynolds hit a sacrifice fly to cut Chicagos lead to 3-2. Kipnis stole second and third, but Jones struck out Swisher and got Raburn to fly out to end the inning. The Indians rallied for a 3-2 victory in the series opener Monday night before Tuesday games was postponed by rain. Chicago got off to a nice start when Alejandro De Aza had a leadoff walk in the first, stole second and came home on Keppingers single to center. The White Sox threatened again in the third, putting runners on first and second with one out, but Keppinger popped out and Rios grounded out to end the inning. White Sox right-handed reliever Addison Reed worked a scoreless ninth for his sixth save, tied for second in the AL. White Sox slugger Adam Dunn walked three times, finishing 0-for-1 to drop his average to .043 (2-for-46) in his last 11 games. Chicago opens a 4-game home series against Tampa Bay today, while Cleveland is off. The Indians kick off a 4-game set Friday at Kansas City.
NOTES: The Indians activated C Lou Marson (neck strain) from the 15-day DL and optioned Yan Gomes to Triple-A Columbus. Marson got the start and went 0-for-3. C Yan Gomes was sent to Triple-A Columbus. He needs to play, for his career this is a good thing for him to do right now, Francona said. Indians OF Michael Bourn is scheduled to be examined today in Cleveland and could resume baseball activities with the removal of sutures from a right index finger laceration. Hes scheduled to come off the disabled list on April 30. RED SOX 6, ATHLETICS 5 BOSTON Stephen Drew hit a 2-run triple, David Ortiz had two hits and drove in a run and the Boston Red Sox beat the Oakland Athletics 6-5 on Wednesday afternoon to take a 3-game series. It was Bostons ninth win in 12 games and came after a 13-0 loss to Oakland a night earlier. Chris Young had a 3-run homer and a solo shot for the Athletics, who finished a 6-game road trip 1-5. They were swept at the Tampa Bay Rays over the weekend. Ortiz is 8-for-16 since returning to the lineup on Saturday for the first time since last August. He missed 71 of the final 72 games last season and all of spring training with an Achilles tendon injury. BLUE JAYS 6, ORIOLES 5, 11 innings BALTIMORE Jim Johnson walked Maicer Izturis with the bases loaded in the 11th inning to force in the tie-breaking run and the Blue Jays beat the Orioles to avert a 3-game sweep and end Baltimores run of consecutive extra-inning victories at 17. The Blue Jays hit four home runs but the decisive run came without Izturis taking a swing. With two outs in the 11th, J.P. Arencibia and Munenori Kawaski singled before Johnson (1-2) hit Brett Lawrie with a pitch and issued a 4-pitch walk to Izturis, the No. 9 hitter in the lineup. Esmil Rogers (1-1) pitched the 10th and Casey Janssen got three straight outs for his sixth save. ASTROS 10, MARINERS 3 HOUSTON Chris Carter, Ronny Cedeno and Brandon Laird homered, Lucas Harrell pitched seven innings and the Astros beat the Mariners. The Astros took 2-of-3 in the series and four of their seven wins this season have come against the Mariners, their new AL West foe. Seattle and Miami are the only teams without a series win this season. Carter hit a solo shot in the second, Cedeno belted a three-run shot in the fourth and Laird also connected for a 3-run drive in Houstons 5-run sixth. Harrell (2-2) allowed a run and six hits. TIGERS 7, ROYALS 5 DETROIT Jose Valverde returned to Detroit with a save and Victor Martinez drove in a pair of runs to help the Tigers beat the Royals. Max Scherzer (2-0) got the win, allowing five runs in five innings, with three Tigers relievers finishing the game. Valverde, called up earlier in the day, returned to the Tigers with a perfect ninth inning. Valverde lost the closing role during the postseason and wasnt offered a contract but signed a minor-league deal earlier this month and returned to Detroit after a short minor-league stint. Wade Davis (2-1) took the loss, giving up seven runs three earned in 3 2/3 innings. Davis allowed eight hits and four walks while only getting 11 outs. RAYS 3, YANKEES 0 ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. Alex Cobb scattered three hits over 8 1/3 innings, Ben Zobrist drove in two runs and the Rays beat the Yankees. Cobb (3-1) gave up only two hits through the eighth Eduardo Nunezs second-inning single and an infield single by Jayson Nix in the sixth. The right-hander, who struck out seven and walked one, was replaced by Fernando Rodney after giving up a 1-out single in the ninth to Brett Gardner. After allowing Ichiro Suzukis single, Rodney completed his third save by retiring Robinson Cano and Travis Hafner. Zobrist put the Rays up 2-0 on a 2-out, 2-run double off Andy Pettitte (3-1) in the fifth. RANGERS 11, ANGELS 3 ANAHEIM, Calif. Nelson Cruz capped a 9-run fourth inning with a 3-run homer, Lance Berkman had four RBIs and the Rangers helped Yu Darvish cruise to a victory over the Angels. Darvish (4-1) allowed three hits over six scoreless innings, struck out 11 and lowered his ERA to 1.65 after getting staked to an 11-0 lead. It was the right-handers 11th double-digit strikeout performance in 34 majorleague starts. Darvish, who did not allow a runner past first base, is 5-1 with a 3.83 ERA in eight starts against the AL West-rival Angels whom he has faced more than any other team since coming over from Japan last season.

Rockets up intensity but lose 105-102 to Thunder

The Associated Press OKLAHOMA CITY Russell Westbrook slammed his hand on the scorers table in anger. He had been slowing down to call a timeout when rookie Patrick Beverley came careening in to try for a steal and crashed into Westbrooks knee. Oklahoma Citys guard shook off the pain and the Thunder withstood a challenge from an energized Houston Rockets team looking to bounce back from a Game 1 blowout. Westbrook and Kevin Durant scored 29 points apiece as Oklahoma City recovered after squandering a 15-point, fourth-quarter lead to beat Houston 105-102 on Wednesday night and take a 2-0 lead in the Western Conference first-round series. Oklahoma Citys big lead melted away with nine straight scoreless possessions as the Rockets mixed in a zone defense. James Harden spearheaded a 21-2 Houston comeback by getting into the lane to create his own opportunities and he also kicked the ball out to set up two 3-pointers by Carlos Delfino. His second 3, from the right wing, provided a 95-91 lead with 3:27 to go. But the Rockets couldnt keep it up. Oklahoma City came back to tie it before Harden knifed to the basket for a layup to give Houston its last lead at 97-95 with 2:42 to play. Durant answered 14 seconds later with a deep 3 from the left wing and the Thunder wouldnt give up the lead again. Oklahoma City came up with back-toback stops before Thabo Sefoloshas 3 provided a little breathing room at 101-97. Chandler Parsons, who went tumbling to the court as Sefolosha shot, explained Oklahoma City center Kendrick Perkins prevented him from closing out on the shooter. It was obvious what Perkins did to me. He grabbed me with two hands and I couldnt go out there and contest Sefolosha, Parsons, who scored 17, added. Its part of the game. Serge Ibaka added a long jumper to make it 103-98 after the Rockets forced Durant to give up the ball. Durant and Kevin Martin, both in the top five in the league in free-throw percentage, both went 1-for-2 at the foul line in the final 12 seconds to give the Rockets one last chance. Houston didnt have any timeouts left after Durants miss with 1 second left and Delfino couldnt connect on a desperation shot at the buzzer. Game 3 is Saturday night in Houston. Harden finished with 36 points and 11 rebounds; Beverley had 16 points, 12 rebounds and six assists for Houston. The Rockets made up for a 40 percent shooting mark with a 57-40 advantage on the boards and a 50-30 scoring edge in the paint, engineering a massive turnaround after getting blown out 120-91 in Game 1. And they did it without starting point guard Jeremy Lin, who didnt play in the second half because of a muscle contusion in his chest. Lin said X-rays were negative and he could play in Game 3 if spasms stop. Our team is a young team and were not a perfect team by any stretch of the imagination but theyll fight, coach Kevin McHale said. Theyre a bunch of scrappers. Theyll go out and fight you for it. So, I knew our team would play well today. Thats who they are. Beverley moved into the starting lineup as Houston went with a 3-guard unit and it didnt take long for the rookie to get under Westbrooks skin with his lunge for the steal. Later in the half, Beverley knocked Westbrook down on a foul and then reached out to help him up. Westbrook slapped his hand away. Its part of basketball, playoff basketball. Everyone wants to go out there and win, Beverley said. Anyone who knows me, knows my character, that Im not going to back down from anyone, Russell Westbrook or anybody else. Westbrook said he relishes those moments when he gets challenged by an opponent. Its fun. During this time of the year, as a team weve got one goal and we cant let nobody get in the way, Westbrook added. Thats how I feel and thats how I want my team to respond as well. Another rookie, Greg Smith, drew a technical foul when he jawed at Ibaka

The Herald 7

after dunking on the NBAs top shotblocker and Houston was within 57-55 at halftime. Just after Hardens driving throwdown put Houston ahead 63-61, Oklahoma City roared back with Ibaka keying a 13-0 run. He swatted Omer Asiks dunk attempt, hit two free throws and grabbed an offensive rebound that set up Westbrooks 3-point play. The Thunder started the fourth quarter with an 11-2 to run to push their lead to 89-74 after Martins 3-pointer with 9:22 to go. McHale called time out and the Rockets immediately responded with Beverleys 3-pointer off a set play beginning the comeback.
NOTES: Beverley had not started any games during his rookie season, moving into the rotation midway through the season and playing 41 games. After finishing second to Tyson Chandler in last years voting for NBA Defensive Player of the Year, Ibaka was third this year behind Marc Gasol and LeBron James. Ibaka has led the NBA in total blocks the past three seasons. He led the league three years in blocks. I guess that dont mean nothing nowadays, frontcourt partner Perkins added. At the end of the day, I think he deserves it. He should have won the thing. But its over with, so were just going to move on. SPURS 102, LAKERS 91 SAN ANTONIO Tony Parker had 28 points and seven assists and San Antonio beat the Los Angeles Lakers 102-91 on Wednesday night to take a 2-0 lead in their first-round playoff series. Tim Duncan and Kawhi Leonard had 16 points each, Manu Ginobili added 13 points and Matt Bonner had 10 for San Antonio. Dwight Howard and Steve Blake had 16 points each to lead Los Angeles. Metta World Peace and Pau Gasol added 13 points each but no other player had more than nine as the Lakers shot 45 percent from the field. Game 3 is Friday night in Los Angeles. The Spurs shot 51 percent from the field after shooting 38 percent in Game 1. San Antonio was 7-for-14 on 3-pointers, including 5-for-7 in the first half. The Lakers shot 37 percent (9-for-24) in the first quarter, a slight improvement over their 7-for-20 performance (35 percent) in the opening quarter of Game 1. PACERS 113, HAWKS 98 INDIANAPOLIS Paul George followed his triple-double by scoring a playoff career-high 27 points to lead Indiana to a 2-0 series lead. The Pacers have won four straight home games over the Hawks. Its the first time Indiana has held a 2-0 series lead since the 2004 Eastern Conference semifinals. George, playing in his first game since being named the leagues Most Improved Player, was 11-of-21 from the field, had eight rebounds, three assists and four steals and again played well defensively. George Hill had 22 points. Atlanta was led by Devin Harris with 17 points. Jeff Teague and Josh Smith both had 16. Game 3 is Saturday in Atlanta. Indiana again took control late in the first quarter and never trailed again.

The Associated Press EDMONTON, Alberta Patrick Kane had a goal and two assists and the Chicago Blackhawks secured the Presidents Trophy for the first time in 22 years with a 4-1 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Wednesday night. The Blackhawks (35-6-5) held off the Eastern Conferenceleading Pittsburgh Penguins for the top regular-season record in the NHL. Jonathan Toews, Patrick Sharp and Johnny Oduya also scored for the Blackhawks, who have gone 10-1-2 in their last 13 games and clinched the leagues best record for

the first time since 1991. Nail Yakupov scored for the Oilers (17-22-7), who lost for the ninth time in 10 games. Corey Crawford came in to replace Blackhawks starting goalie Ray Emery with 6:11 left in the first after Emery sustained a lower body injury. But Emery was credited with the win.
RED WINGS 3, KINGS 1 DETROIT Jordin Tootoo netted the go-ahead goal early in the third period and Johan Franzen scored on a power play with 6:26 left, lifting Detroit over Los Angeles and into eighth place in the Western Conference. Detroit is one point ahead of Columbus and one behind seventhplace Minnesota. All three teams have two games remaining. The Red Wings are aiming to extend their postseason

streak to 22, the longest in North American professional sports. Detroits Jimmy Howard made 23 saves and Pavel Datsyuk scored a game-tying goal midway through the second period. Kyle Clifford scored the lone goal for the defending Stanley Cup champion Kings, who are trying to finish fourth to earn home-ice advantage in the first round of the playoffs. Jonathan Quick made 33 saves, including 13 in the first period when the Kings recorded only four shots on Howard. LIGHTNING 5, MAPLE LEAFS 2 TAMPA, Fla. Martin St. Louis scored three goals and Tampa Bay snapped a 6-game losing streak with a victory over Toronto. St. Louis, who has 16 goals this season, took over the lead in the NHL scoring race with 58 points two more than teammate Steven Stamkos and injured Pittsburgh Penguins forward Sidney Crosby. Stamkos scored his 29th goal, two behind NHL-leading Alex Ovechkin of Washington, and added an assist. Radko Gudas gave the Lightning a 3-2 lead in the third period. With 55 points, Toronto is one point ahead of the New York Islanders for fifth place in the Eastern Conference.

Both teams, who have already clinched playoff berths, have two games remaining. Toronto took a 1-0 lead with 2:57 remaining in the first period when Phil Kessel pushed a wrist shot past goalie Ben Bishop. Joffrey Lupul scored with 24 seconds remaining in the second to get the Maple Leafs even at 2. COYOTES 2, SHARKS 1 GLENDALE, Ariz. Mike Smith stopped 33 shots and Phoenix prevented San Jose from moving up in the Western Conference standings. The Sharks had a chance to pass Los Angeles for fourth in the West but the Coyotes played more like the team still in the playoff hunt. Phoenix beat Thomas Greiss for two goals in the first period and played the tight-checking style that had been so successful the previous three seasons. That left the Sharks tied with the Kings at 57 points. Michael Stone and Keith Yandle both scored and Shane Doan had a pair of assists for Phoenix. Brent Burns scored and Greiss stopped 30 shots in his first start since March 6 for the Sharks, who will close the season against the defending Stanley Cup champion Kings in Los Angeles on Saturday.

The Associated Press AUTO RACING CHARLOTTE, N.C. NASCAR has a zero tolerance policy when it comes to engines, tires and fuel on a race car. Anything even slightly improper is dealt with swiftly and severely. NASCAR always throws the book at offenders. Matt Kenseth and Joe Gibbs Racing were no exception, getting hit with one of the largest penalties in NASCAR history Wednesday after the engine from Kenseths race-winning car at Kansas failed a post-race inspection. The team had nothing to do with the error and manufacturer Toyota immediately accepted responsibility for one of eight connecting rods failing to meet the minimum weight requirement by 3 grams less than an empty envelope. We take full responsibility for this issue with the engine. JGR is not involved in the process of selecting parts or assembling the Cup Series engines, Toyota Racing Development President Lee White said. Kenseth was stripped of everything but the trophy from Sundays win at Kansas. CHARLOTTE, N.C. Denny Hamlin wasnt

cleared to race at his home track in Richmond. Hamlin sustained a compression fracture of a vertebra in his lower back in a last-lap accident at California on March 24. Doctors said hed miss at least five races but Hamlin hoped to return early to race at Richmond, where hes a 2-time winner. But Hamlin wasnt cleared Wednesday to race after visits to Dr. Jerry Petty of Carolina Neurosurgery and Spine Associates and apparently consultations with others. COLLEGE FOOTBALL PASADENA, Calif. The grandest stage in sports was too much for the guys who are putting together the College Football Playoff to pass up. The BCS conference commissioners announced that Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, edged Tampa, Fla., in the bidding to be the site of the first championship game in the new playoff system. The stadium itself was the biggest determiner, BCS executive director Bill Hancock said about the 1.2-billion-dollar, 100,000-plus seat home of the NFLs Cowboys and the Cotton Bowl.

Nittany Lions coach Bill OBrien wrote in a statement that Bench was granted a release to leave the program. He will finish the spring semester at Penn State. PRO FOOTBALL ASHBURN, Va. Mike Shanahan is adjusting his gut when it comes to Robert Griffin III. The Washington Redskins coach indicated hes going to be more cautious with his franchise quarterback from now on, to the point that hes going to make sure that Griffin never plays if hes not 100 percent. Griffin, the leagues offensive rookie of the year, is recovering from reconstructive surgery after reinjuring his right knee in a playoff loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Shanahan has been criticized for not removing Griffin from the game earlier, especially when Griffin was limping noticeably after a throwing a touchdown pass in the first quarter.

Tomorrows Horoscope
FRIDAY, APRIL 26, 2013 Although conditions may look promising, dont make the mistake of thinking you can coast on circumstances. Youll need to work hard to take advantage of the opportunities that come your way. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- If an agreement you make is not constructed fairly, you will be forced to make some adjustments later, which will prove difficult. Make sure things are equitable from the get-go. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Before implementing a new program, be sure everyone involved understands exactly how it will work. It could quickly fail if people are working at cross-purposes. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Dont attempt to turn a serious meeting into a social event. Mixing business with pleasure in this instance would only end badly. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -Procedures shouldnt be altered if they have been producing good results. Changing things for changes sake would only make things worse. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -Focus and deep concentration are essential to your success. Whatever you do, dont let your thoughts wander off whats important. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If you have to deal with someone whose ideals and standards arent on par with yours, take things with a grain of salt. Check out their information before you act on it. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Guard against inclinations to do things the hard way. Remember, just because something comes easily doesnt make it worthless. In fact, it could be quite valuable. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23Dec. 21) -- Even if youre willing to do more for your friends than theyve ever done for you, it doesnt necessarily make them self-serving. Keep your expectations reasonable. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Evaluate your objectives as realistically as possible. If you dont, you might strive to achieve something that turns out to be worthless. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- A good friendship could be jeopardized if it becomes competitive instead of compatible. Dont be the one to introduce such friction; instead be cooperative. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Examining your alternatives from every angle is the smart thing to do, but dont overanalyze things to the point of paralysis. First thought, best thought. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -Dont take offense if a colleague is paying a lot of attention to a relatively new acquaintance. Your pal is just trying to get to know him or her better.

Survey: Americans felt more secure in jobs in 2012

BY CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER WASHINGTON (AP) Confidence in the U.S. job market has rebounded to roughly a normal level from its record low after the Great Recession, a trend that could help boost the economy. Americans increasingly feel they could find a new job if necessary, according to the results of the 2012 General Social Survey, a long-standing poll of public opinion. And fear of being laid off dropped last year from its 2010 peak to roughly its average for the 35 years the question has been asked. The percentage of Americans who said it would be somewhat or very easy to find a job if they lost theirs rose to 54 percent last year from 46 percent in 2010. The 2010 figure was the lowest since 1983, when the United States was also emerging from a deep recession. On average in the surveys history, about 58 percent of respondents have said it would be very or somewhat easy to find a job. As layoffs have declined, fewer Americans fear losing their job. Last year, 11 percent of adults thought it was somewhat or very likely that theyd lose theirs. That was down from a record-high 16 percent in 2010. And it matches the 11 percent average the survey has found since it began asking the question. Americans may be feeling even more secure now than when the survey was taken last year. The number of layoffs fell in January to the lowest level in the 12 years the government has tracked the data. Fewer people are seeking unemployment benefits. And employers have stepped up hiring, though the job gains slowed in March. Employers added nearly 2.2 million jobs in 2012, an average of about 180,000 a month. Thats enough to slowly lower the unemployment rate. Even though the rate remains high at 7.6 percent, greater confidence among those who have a job could encourage more consumer spending and boost economic growth. From mid-March through September last year, 1,975 adults were asked about their financial situation and their feelings about the job market. The surveys margin of error was plus or minus 2.2 percentage points. The results were only recently made available. The survey found that confidence in the economy varied by education. Those with college degrees felt more job security than those with less education. And since the recession ended in June 2009, Americans with a college education have reported greater improvement in confidence than have those with high school degrees or less. Only 6 percent of college-educated Americans said in 2012 that it was somewhat or very likely that theyd lose their job. That was down from 10 percent in 2010. Those with high school degrees were also more confident in 2012: Twelve percent of this group feared losing their job, down from 19 percent two years earlier. But Americans with less than a high school degree reported little change: 26 percent felt it was somewhat or very likely they would be laid off in 2012, about on par with the 29 percent who felt so in 2010. On whether it would be somewhat or very easy to find another job, 59 percent of those with college degrees said so, up from 52 percent in 2010. Among high school graduates, that figure rose to 53 percent last year from

43 percent in 2010. Those without a high school degree still lack confidence: Only 40 percent said it would be somewhat or very easy to find new work, essentially unchanged from the 41 percent who said so in 2010. Among the surveys other findings: Fewer Americans say their financial situation has worsened in the past few years, though the proportion remains high. A record 37 percent of Americans in 2010 said their finances had deteriorated. In 2012, that figure fell to 30 percent, still the second-highest on record. More Americans define themselves as in the lower class than at any time since 1972. A record 8 percent classified themselves as lower class in 2012, the same as in 2010.
