Passengers slog home after cruise

The Associated Press MOBILE, Ala. Passengers who finally escaped the disabled Carnival cruise ship Triumph were on the move early today, some checked into the comfort of hotels, others on buses or headed to charter flights home after five numbing days at sea on a ship paralyzed by an engine-room fire. The vacation ship carrying some 4,200 people docked late Thursday in Mobile to raucous cheers from passengers weary of overflowing toilets, food shortages and foul odors. Sweet Home Alabama! read one of the homemade signs passengers affixed alongside the 14-story ship as many celebrated at deck rails lining several levels of the stricken ship. The ships horn loudly blasted several times as four tugboats pulled the crippled ship to shore at about 9:15 p.m. CST. Some gave a thumbs-up sign and flashes from cameras and cellphones lit the night. It was horrible, just horrible said Maria Hernandez, 28, of Angleton, Texas, tears welling in her eyes as she talked about waking up to smoke in her lower-level room Sunday from the engine-room fire and the days of heat and stench that followed. She was on a girls trip with friends. It took about four hours for all passengers to disembark. Carnival spokesman Vance Gulliksen said passengers had three options: take a bus straight to Galveston, Texas, to retrieve cars parked at the ships departure port, take a bus to New Orleans to stay at a hotel before a charter flight home or have family or friends pick them up in Mobile. Gulliksen said up to 20 charter flights would leave New Orleans later today to take guests who stayed in hotels there to their final destinations. Nearly 2,000 passengers arrived at a New Orleans Hilton in the wee hour of the morning, and by dawn many were headed out again to fly by chartered plane to Houston. They would then have to get a connecting flight home or take a chartered bus back to their cars in Galveston. It just feels so good to be on land again and to feel like I have options, said Tracey Farmer of Tulsa, Okla. Im just ready to see my family. Its been harder on them than us I think because theyve been so worried about us. Its been extremely stressful for them. Buses began arriving at the Port of Galveston this morning after an eight-hour drive from Mobile. Port of Galveston police said as many as 800 people would arrive by bus to retrieve their vehicles or be shuttled onto other buses to reach home. Elaine Roberts of Gainesville, Texas, and her family were among the first to arrive in Galveston. She told KHOU-TV the conditions on Triumph were a cesspool. For some, once they get to Galveston to their cars, they still face long drives getting home. Its going to be a very long day, said Dwayne McAbee, who says hell

Delphos, Ohio drive from Galveston to his home in Fort Worth, Texas, a roughly six to seven hour drive. It wasnt long after the ship pulled into the Port of Mobile that passengers began streaming down the gang plank, some in wheelchairs and others pulling carry-on luggage. An ambulance pulled up to a gate and pulled away, lights flashing. For 24-year-old Brittany Ferguson of Texas, not knowing how long passengers had to endure their time aboard was the worst part. Im feeling awesome just to see land and buildings, said Ferguson, who was in a white robe given to her aboard to weather the cold nights. The scariest part was just not knowing when wed get back. As the ship pulled up, some aboard shouted, Hello, Mobile! Some danced in celebration on one of the balconies. Happy V-Day read one of the homemade signs made for the Valentines Day arrival and another, more starkly: The ships afloat, so is the sewage.

DELPHOS Those wishing to acquire a General Equivalency Degree (GED) should consider doing so before this coming August. Sara Ricker, coordinator of ABLE (Adult Basic Literacy Education), the GED program at Vantage Career Center, says the price is expected to triple after that point. The classes are free but right now you pay $40 for the test, she said. In August, it will go from being pencil and paper to being all on computer. Theyre estimating the new price will be around $120 because now well have to pay for software updates and everything else. The registration deadline for the old test is Aug. 9. The new computer-based GED test will be initiated Jan. 1, 2014. You have to be an adult. We do take 16-18-year-olds but theres a lot of extra paperwork, Ricker said.

These students received plaques for their accomplishments. Staff reports PUTNAM COUNTY Area students showed off their science knowledge as the 59th annual Putnam County Science Fair took place at Glandorf Elementary School on Saturday. Twenty-four pairs of judges evaluated 128 student projects from Putnam County students in grades 6-9. Individual projects were judged on a 40-point scale (team projects were judged on a 50-point scale), which evaluated knowledge achieved, effective use of scientific method, clarity of expression, originality and creativity. Projects receiving a score of 36-40 (45-50 for teams) were awarded a superior rating, those receiving scores of 24-35 (30-44) were awarded an excellent rating, those receiving 12-23 (1529) were awarded a good rating, and those receiving 4-11 (5-14) were awarded a satisfactory rating. The Regional Science Fair will be held at Northwest State Community College in Archbold on March 2. Students who earned superior or high excellent ratings at the county fair are eligible to advance to the District Science Fair, which will be held at Ohio Northern University on March 23. If students receive high enough ratings at these fairs, they are eligible to compete at the State Science Day, hosted by The Ohio State University, on May 11, where over $4.3 million in scholarships are available. Special thanks was given to the administration and staff of Ottawa-Glandorf Local Schools for hosting the 2013 Putnam County Science Fair, including Kevin Brinkman, superintendent; Scott Ketner, elementary school principal; and Ted Elliot, technology coordinator. Thanks also went out to the staff at Glandorf Elementary School, including the cafeteria and janitorial staff, PTO and the Student Council. Finally, a special thank you to Norm Schnipke, Tina Basinger, Marita Deatrick, Deb Schroeder, Gary Herman and Dr. Jan Osborn for all of their help behind the scenes.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. A 150-foot asteroid hurtled toward Earths backyard, destined today to make the closest known flyby for a rock of its size. NASA promised the asteroid would miss Earth by 17,150 miles, avoiding catastrophe. But thats still closer than many communication and weather satellites; scientists insisted these, too, would be spared. Asteroid 2012 DA14, as its called, is too small to see with the naked eye even at its closest approach around 2:25 p.m. EST, over the Indian Ocean near Sumatra. The best viewing locations, with binoculars and telescopes, are in Asia, Australia and eastern Europe. Even there, all anyone can see is a pinpoint of light as the asteroid zooms by at 17,400 mph. As asteroids go, DA14 is a shrimp. The one that wiped out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago was 6 miles across. But this rock could still do immense damage if it struck, releasing the energy equivalent of 2.4 million tons of TNT and wiping out 750 square miles. Scientists are certain it wont impact Earth. And chances are extremely remote it will run into any of the satellites orbiting 22,300 miles up. Most of the solar systems asteroids are situated in a belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, and remain stable there for billions of years. Some occasionally pop out, though, into Earths neighborhood. The flyby provides a rare learning opportunity for scientists eager to keep future asteroids at bay and a primetime advertisement for those anxious to step up preventive measures. We are in a shooting gallery and this is graphic evidence of it, said former Apollo astronaut Rusty Schweickart, chairman emeritus of the B612 Foundation, committed to protecting Earth from dangerous asteroids. Schweickart noted that 500,000 to 1 million sizable near-Earth objects asteroids or comets are out there. Yet less than 1 percent fewer than 10,000 have been inventoried. Humanity has to do better, he said. The foundation is working to build and launch an infrared space telescope to find and track threatening asteroids. DA14 discovered by Spanish astronomers last February is such a close call that it is a celestial torpedo across the bow of spaceship Earth, Schweickart said in a phone interview Thursday. Astronomers organized asteroid-encounter parties for today and experts just about everywhere were giving flyby rundowns. NASAs deep-space antenna in Californias Mojave Desert was ready to collect radar images, but not until eight hours after the closest approach given the United States poor positioning for the big event. Scientists at NASAs Near-Earth Object program at Californias Jet Propulsion Laboratory estimate that an object of this size makes a close approach like this every 40 years. The likelihood of a strike is every 1,200 years.

Ohio to let feds run health exchange

By ANN SANNER The Associated Press COLUMBUS Ohio officials on Thursday confirmed the states intentions not to run its own health insurance exchange but, instead, have the federal government operate the new online marketplace under President Barack Obamas health care law. A letter sent Thursday to the Obama administration reiterates what Republican Gov. John Kasich told federal officials in November that Ohio will keep its authority to regulate health plans in and out of the exchange, but leave running it to the federal government. Exchanges can be run by the states, the federal government, or a state-federal partnership. Consumers can get private health insurance, subsidized by the government, through the online health insurance marketplaces in each state. Small businesses will have access to their own exchanges. Open enrollment starts Oct. 1, and coverage takes effect Jan. 1, 2014. The federal government initially instructed Ohio officials to submit a more detailed blueprint of its plan, which is required of those pursing a federal-state partnership. But recent conversations between officials clarified that Ohio no longer fit into that category. Kasich told the Obama administration in a Nov. 16 letter that setting up a statebased exchange is too costly and states have little control over how to operate exchanges. Regardless of who runs an exchange, the end product is the same, he said at the time. The states letter on Thursday to Gary Cohen of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services restates Ohios intentions to let the federal government be responsible for the exchange. Lt. Gov. Mary Taylor, who is also the director of the states insurance department, stipulated in the letter that Ohio would have regulatory authority over the insurance business in Ohio as well as the capacity to oversee the certification of qualified health plans. She said the department would continue to collect and analyze information on plan rates, covered benefits, and cost-sharing requirements. It would also ensure ongoing plan compliance and resolve consumer complaints. Continuing this regulation at the state level, as Ohio has done for decades, will preserve the high quality oversight of the industry for

which Ohio is known, and also help provide stability to our states insurance market at this time of considerable volatility, Taylor wrote. Kasich has decided to proceed with another key part of Obamas law: expanding Medicaid coverage for more low-income Ohioans.

Sharp fall in US jobless claims boosts outlook

BY CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER The Associated Press WASHINGTON The outlook for the U.S. job market is brightening after a government report showed a sharp drop in the number of Americans applying for unemployment benefits. Weekly applications fell 27,000 to a seasonally adjusted 341,000, the Labor Department said Thursday. Outside a few weeks last month affected by seasonal distortions, thats the lowest level in nearly five years. The four-week average, which smooths week-to-week fluctuations, stayed near a five-year low. Economists were encouraged by the decline but want to see the progress sustained and more jobs created. Since the recession ended in June 2009, the job market has shown brief bursts of improvement in the winter months only to falter in the spring. In addition, the huge snowstorm that affected the Northeastern states over the weekend could push up applications in the coming weeks. The latest report covered the week ended Feb. 9, prior to when the storm hit. This is tentatively a positive signal for the labor market, Daniel Silver, an economist at JPMorgan Chase, said in a note to clients. Falling applications signal fewer layoffs. More hiring usually follows, but not always. Since November, the fourweek average has declined 5 percent to 352,500 applications. And job growth has increased to an average of 200,000 net positions a month from November through January, up from 150,000 in the previous three months. But the employment report measures net job gains, which equals total hiring minus layoffs, quits and other separations. A decline in layoffs can boost net job gains even when total hiring is flat or down. A separate Labor Department report earlier this week showed that layoffs fell to a 10-year low in December. Overall hiring, however, also declined. Many companies may be more cautious about hiring now that a 2 percentage point increase in Social Security taxes is cutting consumers take-home pay. That could slow growth. Still, if applications remain consistently below 350,000, net job growth should increase, said Carl Riccadonna, an economist at Deutsche Bank. Monthly gains could rise to an average of 225,000 per month, he added. Gains at that level should steadily lower

The world is too dangerous to have this period of uncertainty, said Carl Levin, D-Mich., chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee. The nomination of John Brennan as CIA director was also delayed; the Senate Intelligence Committee pushed off a vote amid Republican demands that the White House turn over more details about drone strikes against terror suspects and about the Benghazi attack. In contrast, the Senate swiftly confirmed John Kerry to succeed Hillary Rodham Clinton as secretary of state. The Pentagon and CIA will continue under their current leadership, and Panetta will stay on as defense secretary until his successor is confirmed. At a Pentagon award ceremony for Clinton, Panetta said it was fitting to recognize her accomplishments as secretary of state on Valentines Day. And he said the secondbest Valentines Day present would be for the Senate to confirm Hagel and allow Panetta and his wife to get the hell out of town. He said hes got his belongings packed.

Obama attempting to change face of the judiciary

BY NEDRA PICKLER The Associated Press to White House figures. Most of the Bush nominees were approved in less than a month after clearing committee, the White House said. Michael L. Shenkman, a fellow at the Center for Law and Politics at Columbia Law School who worked on Obamas judicial nominations team in the first two years of his presidency, calculated that district judge vacancies across the country represented more than 275 lost years of judicial work and $160 million in wasted public resources during Obamas first term. Having an empty bench means people dont get their cases heard, Shenkman said, adding that federal law requires that judges give priority to criminal cases, so civil cases can face repeated delay. It makes litigation more frustrating and more expensive. Nationwide, 90 out of 874 federal judgeships are vacant, with 31 of those vacancies labeled emergencies by the judiciary because of heavy caseloads. The Senate Judiciary Committee approved 13 of Obamas nominees Thursday. White House press secretary Jay Carney argues that the judges approved by the committee are extremely wellqualified and reflect the pres-

the still-high unemployment rate, which ticked up to 7.9 percent in January from 7.8 percent in December. Economists expect the rate will decline if hiring continues at last years monthly pace of 180,000. The rate fell 0.7 percentage points in 2012. The number of people receiving benefits has increased. More than 5.9 million people received benefits in the week ended Jan. 26, the latest data available. That was about 325,000 more than the previous week. The economy contracted at an annual rate of 0.1 percent in the October-December quarter, hurt by a sharp cut in defense spending, fewer exports and sluggish growth in company stockpiles. Thats much slower than the 3.1 percent growth recorded in the July-September period. Still, economists expect that figure will be revised in the coming months to show a small increase, after more data about last quarter has been reported. Economists at Barclays Capital estimate the economy expanded 0.5 percent in the fourth quarter. Growth will likely pick up a bit in the January-March quarter to an annual rate of 1.5 percent, analysts forecast. Thats better than the fourth quarter but below last years expansion of 2.2 percent.

WASHINGTON President Barack Obama is trying to change the face of a federal judiciary that has a long tradition of white men passing judgment on parties from all walks of life if he can get his nominees past the Senate. Republicans have used the powers accorded the Senate minority party to slow Obamas influence on the federal bench. But recent changes to Senate rules suggest the process may begin to move faster, at least at the lower, U.S. District Court level. Under a recent bipartisan agreement, the Senate will limit debate on district court judge nominees to two hours, far below the 30 hours that used to be allowed. The hope is that will curtail a tradition that dates back to the Clinton administration of the presidents opposing party stalling judicial nominees. Democrats also used the tactic for some of President George W. Bushs nominees, but the delays have been particularly long under Obama. Nearly half of Obamas nominees have waited for more than 100 days for confirmation votes, while less than 10 percent of Bushs waited that long, according

NJ Sen. Frank Lautenberg says he will retire

BY ANDREW TAYLOR The Associated Press was diagnosed with cancer in 2010 and successfully treated and a case of the flu this winter caused him to miss the Senates Jan. 1 vote on avoiding the so-called fiscal cliff of rising taxes and falling government spending. But he has beaten back health problems before and a primary opponent who suggested he was too old for the job. Lautenberg first won election to the Senate in 1982. He was set to travel today to his hometown of Patterson to announce his retirement. In 2008, Rep. Rob Andrews challenged Lautenberg in a Democratic primary, but Andrews fell well short of unseating Lautenberg as most of the states Democratic Party establishment still backed him. Lautenberg was diagnosed in February 2010 with B-cell lymphoma of the stomach and underwent chemotherapy treatments until he was declared in June 2010 to be free of cancer. He worked between the treatments. The diagnosis came just days after the death of Sen. Robert Byrd, D-W.Va., which made Lautenberg the oldest mem-

idents unprecedented commitment to a judiciary that reflects the nation it serves. The group of 13 includes eight women, six minorities and one openly gay candidate. This needless delay is unacceptable, and these nominees deserve immediate consideration by the full Senate, Carney said. White House officials express little hope that the Senate will change its ways. They point to Wednesdays confirmation of William Kayatta of Maine to the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Boston. Kayattas nomination a year ago was supported by both of Maines Republican senators. But other Republicans in the Senate refused to agree to a vote so Obama had to renominate Kayatta again this year, even though he ultimately passed without much controversy and 88 votes in support. Despite the delays, Obama was able to make some progress on diversity in his first term, with more black, Hispanic and openly gay federal judges confirmed than in the two Bush terms, according to the White House. Nearly half of Obamas confirmed judges have been women, compared with about a quarter for Bush and Clinton, the White House said.

WASHINGTON Democratic Sen. Frank Lautenberg of New Jersey, a staunch advocate of gun control and public infrastructure and a champion of the Amtrak railroad system, announced Thursday he will not seek reelection in 2014. This is not the end of anything, but rather the beginning of a two-year mission to pass new gun safety laws, protect children from toxic chemicals, and create more opportunities for working families in New Jersey, Lautenberg said in a statement. Lautenberg, at 89 the oldest senator and the Senates last veteran of World War II, has been easily elected five times, but he was facing a likely challenge from Cory Booker, the charismatic mayor of Newark. Booker would enter the race as a strong favorite to keep the seat in Democratic hands, though Democratic Rep. Frank Pallone may also be mulling a run. He has also had health problems in recent years. He

ber of the Senate. Lautenberg got into politics in 1982 after building a fortune as a founder of Automatic Data Processing. In that race, he defeated patrician Republican Rep. Millicent Fenwick, the model for the cartoon character Lacey Davenport in Doonesbury, while spending $3 million of his own money. In the Senate, Lautenberg has been a reliably liberal vote, crusading against smoking and youth drinking and supporting gun control and stiffer environmental laws. While I may not be seeking re-election, there is plenty of work to do before the end of this term and Im going to keep fighting as hard as ever for the people of New Jersey in the U.S. Senate, Lautenberg said. In a statement, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, a Republican, said: Frank Lautenberg and I have had our differences through the years, but Ive always respected him for his tenacity, devotion to the people of New Jersey and his love for and commitment to public service.

Pirates down Jeffcats in NWC finale

By NICK JOHNSON DHI Correspondent sports@timesbulletin.com DELPHOS The Jefferson Lady Wildcats welcomed the Bluffton Lady Pirates for Senior Night at Jefferson High School though the Wildcats have no senior players on Thursday night for a Northwest Conference girls basketball matchup. The battle went down to the wire as Bluffton edged Jefferson for a 46-42 win in the regular-season finale. With the score tied at 4-4, Jefferson went on a 6-1 run to close out the first period as Rileigh Stockwell scored four points and Hannah Sensibaugh added in a layup. The Lady Pirates got late foul shots from Katie Palte to make the score at the end of the first stanza 10-5, Lady Wildcats. Bluffton open the second quarter with a bang as Paige Buroker nailed a 3-pointer to cut the Jefferson lead to 10-8. Two made free throws from Alex Lugibihl allowed the Lady Pirates to tie the game later at 14-14. Bluffton finished the first half on a 7-2 run, which included five points from Sierra Amstutz, to make the score going into intermission 21-16, Lady Pirates. Jefferson got seven straight points coming from Stockwell as the Lady Wildcats cut the Bluffton lead to 27-23 in the third period. The Lady Wildcats finally regained the lead after a Sensibaugh runner and a Makayla Binkley 3-pointer made the score 29-28, Jefferson. Both teams exchanged hoops to end the third quarter as Blufftons Sarah Schriner got a layup but Jefferson countered with a layup from Binkley to end the period and make the score 33-30, Lady Wildcats. The Lady Pirates got a big boost in the final period when, after Lugibihl knocked down her first foul shot, Buroker collect the miss on the second free throw and put it back for a quick three points for Bluffton to cut the Jefferson lead to 35-33. A little later in the quarter, the

NEW BREMEN St. Johns put together a solid basketball game Thursday night at New Bremen. The Blue Jays just couldnt close the deal late, with the Lady Cardinals outscoring the Jays 15-9 in the final period to grab a 49-45 victory in Midwest Athletic Conference action on S e n i o r Night at Katie Vorst Cardinal Gymnasium. The Jays (8-12, 8-14, 1-8 MAC) led 36-34 to start the ultimate quarter but struck first on a 3-ball by junior Erica Saine (12 points on 4 treys) at 5:50. Later on, the Jays led 42-38 on a triple by senior Jessica Recker (7 markers, 6 assist) at the 3:25 mark. That is when the Blue and Gold offense fell silent for the next 3:10. In that time frame, they missed their next four shots and turned it over three times (20 total). In the same span, the Cardinals scored the next seven markers, taking the lead for good on a triple from the right side by senior Haley Moeller (11 counters) at 1:47. Senior Meagan Brandt hit a pair of throws at the 24.3-second mark for a 45-42 edge. Blue Jay senior Katie Vorst (18 counters, 7 rebounds) then drove for a deuce at the 15-second mark and the Jays called their final timeout. Cardinal senior Kyla Otting hit two more throws at 12:6 ticks and called their final timeout to discuss strategy. Junior Emilie Fischbach was fouled and hit the first of the 1-and-1 at 7.5 ticks and missed the second, with the Jays getting the ball again after it was knocked out of bounds. However, on the inbounds pass, the Jays could not get a shot off and turned it over with a foul with .4 of a second left. Senior Hannah Holdren (9 markers, 8 caroms, 3 steals) hit the ninth and 10th singles of the period for the Cardinals (15-of-18 for the game for 83.3%) to seal the deal. We put ourselves in position to win the game but couldnt finish. We have struggled with our confidence all season and that returned in the wrong situation, St. Johns mentor Dan J. Grothouse said. We got in too much of a hurry down the stretch and at certain times during the second half, getting rid of the ball before we should. Either that or wed hesitate to make the necessary pass. Its something we need to work on and try to solve. It was the foul shooting that was the key for New Bremen coach Chris Burden. We work on that every day, trying to put our players in pressure situations. Its hard to do that all the time and really match what they face in a game, he explained. Our seniors refused to lose tonight; they wanted to go out on their home floor with a win. They kept us composed and poised; they just kept us hanging around and fighting to the end. They hurt us on the offensive glass the first half but we adjusted and did better, especially on Vorst. We simply made her work harder. Saine started out on fire coming off the bench, hitting a pair of treys in the first canto. Vorst was also active, netting five, as the Jays built a 16-10 edge. Saines trifecta

from the left wing with 2.1 ticks on the board made the score what it was at the end of eight minutes. The Jays and Cardinals went at it on even terms in the second period, though the Jays led the entire way. Their smallest lead was four twice the last at 19-15 on a 3-ball by Brandt (10 counters) at 5:35. Their biggest lead was eight three times the last at 27-19 on two Vorst (6 points in the period) freebies at 2:01. When junior Karli Jones hit a third-chance basket at 1:01, New Bremen had closed within 27-21 for the halftime scoreboard. The Jays seemed on the v e r g e of taking some control in the third, building up a 34-25 advantage on a Vorst charity toss with five Saine minutes left. Back came the Cardinals behind six from Otting, including her runner from the free-throw line just before the horn, to get the hosts within 36-34. We played solid defense the first half; not as good the second, Grothouse added. We gave up way too much dribble penetration. We also didnt rebound like we had. Again, we played a much better offensive game tonight than Tuesday night but we didnt finish. Credit New Bremen for hitting all those free throws late to seal the deal. Both teams shot 41 times, with the Jays hitting 15 (6-of18 long range) for 36.6 percent and the Cardinals (11-11, 3-6 MAC) knocking down 16 (2-of-10 beyond the arc) for 39 percent. The Jays won the battle off the backboards 32-26 (12-10 offensive) as freshman Sydney Fischbach added seven and Emilie Fischbach six for the Jays. New Bremen had 13 errors. The Jays had 18 fouls to 16 for the hosts. St. Johns begins Division IV tournament play Tuesday in the first game at Van Wert (6:15 p.m.), while the Cardinals take on Minster in the second game the same night at Coldwater. The Cardinals closed junior varsity play with a 30-26 victory. Debbie Paul netted eight for the hosts. The Lady Blue Jays were topped by sophomore Colleen Schulte with seven.

too many turnovers and we put them at the foul line and they converted. Jefferson falls to 7-15, 3-6 in the NWC. They open Division IV tournament play Tuesday at Van Wert by taking on Spencerville in the second game (approximately 8 p.m.). I was very pleased with our intensity in the second half; we need to continue that on into the tournament and play at that level. Not like we did in the second quarter; we just let them have too many easy baskets, Hoffman added. We just need to take care of the ball. Its good to be in games like this; this seasons you a little more and last week, we got beat by Allen East in overtime. We have had a couple of close games the last couple of weeks and hopefully it helps us season and we can handle the pressure a little bit better going into the tournament and next year. With the win, Bluffton improves its NWC record to 5-4 and overall record to 11-11. Jefferson won the junior varsity game 37-22. Lindsay Deuel led the Lady Wildcats with 11.

Lancers earn 17th win of campagne 68-53

By BRIAN BASSETT DHI Correspondent sports@timesbulletin.com MIDDLE POINT - After winning only seven games two years ago and six last season, the four seniors on the Lincolnview Lady Lancer basketball team set a goal for this season to run things around. After Lincolnview clinched its 17th win of the season with a 68-53 victory Thursday night on Senior Night in the season finale against Spencerville, its safe to say that goal has been achieved. Just to see the girls be rewarded for their hard work over the last couple of years (is great); theyve been through a lot of injuries and ups-anddowns on and off the floor. To have them be rewarded in this fashion is awesome; they deserve it and, hopefully, we can get a couple of wins in the tournament, said Lincolnview coach Dan Williamson. The Lancers (17-5, 7-2) shot an impressive 51 percent (29-of-57) from the field Thursday night, 50 percent (4-of-8) from behind the arc. Lincolnview senior guard Claire Dye led all scorers in her final regular-season game for the Lady Lancers with 21 points. She hit three 3-pointers on the evening, two of which helped turn the tide in their favor. With Lincolnview leading by two, 24-22, late in the third, Dye hit a three to give the Lady Lancers a 5-point lead and sparked a 9-2 rally, which included another Dye trey, to close the half and give Lincolnview a 33-24 lead at the break. Claire Dye has shot the ball well all season and shes a big reason why we were able to get the win tonight, explained Williamson. As well as she shot the ball from the outside, we were kind of struggling offensively, not

really finding our way yet, when she hit that first (three). Shes very streaky; when she hits one, shes going to hit two or three. Spencerville (3-19, 1-8) narrowed the deficit to as few as five points, 37-32, in the second half but the Lady Lancers pulled away by continuously breaking the Lady Bearcat press. We were able to take advantage when they started pressing us, Williamson said. Thats how we play our basketball; up-and-down. We took better care of the ball after the first quarter.

Pirates down LadyCats in PCL action

By DAVE BONINSEGNA The Delphos Herald zsportslive@yahoo.com KALIDA Momentum. Impetus. The ebb and flow. Whatever one chooses to call it, in sports, when your team has it, more often than not you are going to come out on top. The flow of the final game of the regular season for the Kalida Lady Wildcats and the Continental Lady Pirates started out with the Pirates from the opening tip and carried to the final buzzer as the guests put the spoils on Senior Night in Kalida with a 32-26 Putnam County League victory. The Pirates (15-7, 5-2 PCL) scored 10 of the first 12 points in the contest and went on a 13-2 run in the first half to set the tone. Taylor Williamson led all scorers for Continental with 10 points; Leva Weller added eight. On the home-team side, Jackie Gardner led the LadyCats (13-8, 4-3 PCL) with eight markers. Weller hit the opening basket from the low post just seconds into the game and only a Julia Vandemark bucket for Kalida stopped the scoring spurt by the guests. Kalida shot just 3 of 22 in the first half and only 9 of 42 in the game. However, the Pirates did not fair much better; connecting on just 7 of 23 in the first 16 minutes and only 12 of 39 in the contest. The home team was able to take the third frame, outscoring their guests 12-7 and drawing to within five at 17-12 when Gardner hit a bucket with 5:32 to go in the frame. Nonetheless, the Pirates went on another stretch, this time a 8-0 run, capped off by a Willamson long range shot to make it a 22-12 score with just under four minutes to go in the third. The pendulum would swing back the way of the hosts as Kalida would grab the next eight points with Gardner and Nicole Recker (5 markers) providing the scoring. Recker hit one from inside and one from beyond the arch; Gardner nailed a shot from the paint to cut the Continental lead down to four at 24-20 with 5:24 to go in the game. But, the shift in the impetus would turn again with the visitors connecting on 6 of 10 from the foul line and despite a lone bucket from the field by Weller the Pirates were able to hang on and not relinquish the lead. Williamson hit a pair of key free throws with just over a minute to go to help seal the win for the visitors. The two could potentially square off again Saturday February 23 in the Sectional Finals at

Spencerville coach Warren Pughsley said lapses in execution allowed for easy Lady Lancer baskets: There are little things that shouldnt happen, whether the other team is experienced, better, more talented or whatever. There are little things that should not happen, like not getting back on defense. At least, I would say, seven baskets came off of that. Despite the miscues, including 21 turnovers, Pughsley was happy with the effort he saw from his team, which continues to get healthier as the tournament nears. I thought our girls played really hard against a good team and against a team in which you can see the level of experience they have Overall, I was happy with our effort. I think three of our last

four games have been like that, so I think were prepared for the tournament, the Lady Bearcar coach explained. Spencerville shot 40 percent (19-0f-48) on the night. For Lincolnview, Dye was joined by her sister and the teams leading scorer, senior guard Katie Dye, in double figures, with 11 points. Fellow senior, center Kaitlyn Brant, chipped in 12 points, as did sophomore guard Julia Thatcher. Senior center Abby Freewalt led the Lady Bearcats with 15 points. Freewalt has been consistent for a team battling inconsistency due to injuries. She has been hurt all year; she has had a nerve issue and a hip issue since tryouts. Shes been playing through it, Pughsley described of

Freewalt. Shes one of the only four (players) who has played in every game. She works hard. Sometimes we sit her out of practice when shes really hurting but even then she doesnt like to. Her sacrifices this year, we talked about it at senior night, dont go unnoticed. Someone else who doesnt go unnoticed for Spencerville is the only other senior, guard Alyssa Mulholland, who has also battled adversity this season. Alyssa had a concussion and her mother was diagnosed with cancer. Its been like an emotional roller-coaster but the only practices she missed were the ones we told her to miss when her mom was having surgery and she had the concussion. Other than that, shes been there, Pughsley

added. Sophomore goard Schylar Miller had 10 points for the Lady Bearcats, sophomore guard Emilee Meyer had 10 and Mulholland added seven. The teams could meet again very soon. Spencerville opens tournament play at Van Wert next Tuesday against Jefferson; Lincolnview awaits the winner.

CONVOY The Crestview Lady Knights wrapped up their regular season Thursday night at home against the Columbus Grove Lady Bulldogs. The Lady Knights sent their one and only senior, Mariah Henry, away with a 55-30 victory over Northwest Conference foe Columbus Grove. The Lady Knights never trailed in the game. With the score tied at two early in the first quarter, Crestview went on an 8-0 run started by Henry with an easy bunny shot, then sophomores Terra Crowle and Lindsey Motycka hit back-to-back threes to extend the lead to 10-2. Columbus Grove fought back before the end of the quarter. A three by Sammi Stechschulte and two free throws by Megan Verhoff helped the Lady Bulldogs pull within five but Crestview freshman Emily Bauer hit a basket off an assist from Mackenzie Riggenbach that gave the Lady Knights a 14-7 lead after one. After the teams exchanged baskets to begin the second quarter, the Lady Knights went on another 10-2 run to close out the period. Sophomore Kennis Mercer and Riggenbach had threes

during the run, while Bauer added a basket and a free throw. Henry also hit a free throw to close out the scoring on the run, putting the Lady Knights up 26-11 at the break. Crestview put the game away by opening up the third quarter on a 9-2 run to take a commanding 35-13 lead midway through the period. The Lady Knights outscored the Lady Bulldogs 19-6 overall, grabbing total control at 45-17 after three. Crestview maintained its lead in the fourth quarter on its way to a 25-point rout. The Lady bulldogs were led in scoring by Sydney McCluers nine points. The loss drops the Lady Bulldogs to 5-16 on the season (3-6 NWC). Grove ends the regular season Saturday afternoon (1 p.m. JV) at home versus Pandora-Gilboa. Crestview played extremely well tonight. We really couldnt stop their inside game, so we had to play zone and thats what killed us, said Grove coach Chad Ricker. Second half, we played more man-to-man and got some points on the board. We felt sorry for ourselves at times; we struggled hitting shots and taking care of the ball. We also didnt execute as crisply as I would have liked but give Crestview a lot of credit for that.

is a reason they are 20-2 on the season. The Lady Knights had a very balanced night offensively. Motycka led the with 13 points, Bauer added 12 and Riggenbaugh wasnt far behind with nine. I thought we played really well and that this was one of our most complete games from start to finish, said Crestview coach Greg Rickard. We shot well, moved the ball well, had a lot of assists and rebounded really well. I thought we did a good job defending, challenging shots and keeping them off the glass. The victory completed a perfect conference season for the Lady Knights at 9-0 and moved them to 20-2 overall. Crestview plays next Feb. 23 at Van Wert versus Tuesday nights winner between St. Johns and Parkway.

Watchful waiting is usual treatment for acoustic neuroma

My doctor thinks it might be an acoustic neuroma and is ordering tests for that. I dont like the sound of this. Isnt an acoustic neuroma a type of brain tumor? DEAR READER: Yes, an acoustic neuroma is a type of brain tumor. There are really bad brain tumors and there are small, curable brain tumors. Fortunately, an acoustic neuroma usually falls into the small, curable category. Acoustic neuromas are benign (non-cancerous) growths, or tumors. Part of a nerve swells up into a little ball. These growths do not spread into other parts of the brain or body. An acoustic neuroma grows on the cochleo-vestibular nerve (the eighth cranial nerve). This nerve allows a person to hear and is also connected to the balance center inside the ear. It carries sound and balance information from the ear to the brain. For that reason, the main symptoms of an acoustic neuroma are hearing loss and tinnitus (ringing in the ears). Most people with acoustic neuromas have hearing loss when they have formal tests of their hearing. However, many of these people havent noticed the loss. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan can confirm the diagnosis. An MRI can show how big the tumor is and where it is located. There is no way to tell how fast a tumor will grow except by checking periodically with an MRI scan. Some acoustic neuromas can grow quickly, but most grow slowly, taking years to become large enough to cause symptoms. And some acoustic neuromas do not grow at all after they are diagnosed.

Tomorrows Horoscope
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 2013 In the year ahead, you should be able to put to good use much of what youve recently experienced and learned. Youll find that it will serve you well when competing for a position in your field of endeavor. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- If you are placed in a position of authority, strive to work with your underlings instead of lording over them. If you start to push, theyll push back. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -Dont think that people wont notice if you attempt to manipulate them using flattery. Your motives will be readily recognized and resented, and instead of going along with you, people will rebel. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -In search of a good deal, you could go overboard and make an offer that you cant afford, no matter how good a buy it is. Dont give in to this temptation. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Thinking that people should do things for you will make you a very unpopular person and lead to nothing but disappointment. If theres something that needs doing, youre the one to do it. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -Dont take it as a personal affront if associates arent in accord with your viewpoints. Everyone is entitled to his or her beliefs, the same as you are. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Should you have a minor misunderstanding with a friend, dont blow things out of proportion. In your desire to make a point, you could go too far. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -Generosity is one of your nobler traits, but you need to be careful not to carry it to extremes. Dont give out more than you can afford, especially to an undeserving party. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -Even if you are normally a creative and artistic person, your customary good taste might not be up to its usual high standards currently. Listen to people who are more aware of this than you are. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Be particularly careful about how you conduct yourself when in public. If you should commit a faux pas and make a big deal apologizing for it, youll only draw unnecessary attention to yourself. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -Even though you might mean well, there is a good chance that your efforts will only muddy the waters of a sensitive situation. Think before opening your mouth. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Its good to face challenges optimistically, but be sure that you are firmly based in reality as well. If you underestimate the odds against you, you could delude yourself into fantasy. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Do not offer to help another with something that you know nothing about. If you make a mistake, and it turns out to be costly, youll be held accountable.

Your problems are portable

I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I am about to spit you out of my mouth.
Revelation 3: 15-16

Friday, February 15, 2013

www.delphosherald.com

Each one should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves alone, without comparing themselves to someone else, for each one should carry their own load.
Galatians 6:4-5 People often assume that they can run away from their problems. It can be tempting to think that if you could only trade in your pushy boss and annoying coworkers for a better job elsewhere, all would be well. But, there are pushy bosses and annoying coworkers in most organizations. Perhaps we need to learn how to be more assertive with our boss and coworkers. Many people flee from relationships, assuming the problem is the other person when in fact the problem is at least partly their own doing. I recently heard someone say that everything in their life would be better once they left town. I immediately heard the voice of a wise counselor who told me years ago that my problems were portable. I have quit more than a few decent jobs because I was convinced that the problem was inherent in the situation rather than in me. Ive also given up on good relationships because I didnt have the patience, courage or

heartedly devoted. Its a bit like falling in love: you become utterly consumed by the thought of your beloved and nothing else matters. But, how sad it is when your love is not returned. God loves you; God is love itself. So, we should open our heart, accept Gods love and love God back with our entire being.

Are You All In?

You cannot be a dabbler or dilettante in religion. Either you are in, or you arent. The Bible repeatedly tells us that God requires a complete commitment. The first commandment is essentially a requirement that we acknowledge God and have no other gods before him. Jesus tells the Pharisee who asks, which is the greatest commandment, that it is to Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with your entire mind. In other words, you have to be fully committed. God is not looking for dabblers or those who are only superficially interested. Your very existence is proof that God is fully committed to you, so you must be committed to Him in return. There are many things in life that you can dabble at, such as hobbies, recreational activities, and perhaps even your studies. But, in your commitment to God, you must be completely and whole-

flexibility to work on my own issues. Many of lifes serious problems boil down to personal issues that we must work through ourselves, and even when the problem really is something or somebody else, how we deal with it matters more than almost anything else in determining the outcome. Christopher Simon
