REED BREED@MYDAILSENTINEL.COM Jack Williams of Syracuse has joined the staff of Teaford Real Estate in Pomeroy. He recently completed stringent state testing and the educational requirements for joining a real estate firm. He is a member of the National, Ohio and Athens County Board of Realtors. Williams has business experience having at one time owned and operated Williams Insurance Agency. He also has past experience as a bank examiner which, he says, gives him extra benefits to provide new home buyers. MIDDLEPORT — Sheriff Robert Beegle said no arrests have been made in a breaking and entering last week at a Middleport-area gasoline station. The theft of a safe from the store is one of three B&E crimes, two of which are likely connect- ed, now under investigation, Beegle said. Beegle said his department responded to a call last Wednesday morning of a breaking and entering at the TNT Pit Stop, Hobson. Beegle said a safe stolen from the store in the April 13 incident was found Friday in Montgomery County. The store was the site of an armed robbery last sum- mer. “There have been no arrests yet, but we know where (they) went,” Beegle said Monday. “The location of the safe has been of great value in the investigation.” Friday morning, the department was notified of a breaking and entering at the Brazel Co. building on Leading Creek Road near Middleport. Beegle said a 1990 Honda 4-Trac 300, 20 new brass valves, and two Stihl weed trimmers were stolen. The four-wheeler was driven west in the lawn towards Leading Creek Road, Beegle said. Right across the road, entry was attempted into a garage owned by Randall Davis. Beegle said the lock on the door there was broken, and a Hunting for Easter eggs tool used to pry on the door. Beegle said a log was used on each side in an attempt to open the door, but after a prior B&E, Davis had installed dead bolts to secure the door. Investigation is ongoing in each case, Beegle said, and anyone with information is asked to contact his office at 9923371. Brunner to keynote JeffersonJackson event BY BRIAN J. REED BREED@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM Egg hunt rescheduled RACINE — The Meigs County District Public Library’s Annual Easter Egg Hunt has been rescheduled for 11 a.m., Saturday, April 23 at the Racine Library. Last week’s event was canceled due to inclement weather. Bloodmobile coming POMEROY — With the American Red Cross reporting a critical need for blood donors at this time, residents of the Bend area are encouraged to donate blood at one of several bloodmobile visits scheduled in Meigs County this month and in early May. The scheduled visits of the bloodmobile are as follows: April 20 – Mulberry Community Center in Pomeroy, 1 to 6 p.m. April 28 – Southern Local High School, Racine, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. May 3 – Eastern High School, Reedsville, 9:30 to 2 p.m. May 9 – Meigs High School, Pomeroy, 9 a.m. Charlene Hoeflich/photos Sure to be repeated many times this week will be children scrambling across lawns hunting for colorful plastic eggs filled with goodies. The weather was cool Sunday afternoon but the children of the First Baptist Church of Middleport didnʼt seem to mind. With Easter baskets in hand they searched about outside and then came indoors to check out the downstairs social rooms where more eggs had been hidden. Little Aleena Dosci found enough Easter eggs to fill her container, as did Hunter Faulk who seemed to enjoy checking out what was inside the egg as much or more than the hunt.

Ohio Department of Health issues warning to food service operators COLUMBUS — The Ohio Department of Health (ODH) today is reminding Ohio food service operators to be suspicious of individuals calling or entering establishments claiming to be state health inspectors. “I want to remind Ohio’s restaurants and food service establishments not to give out any personal, private, or secure information to anyone without first confirming the person’s identity, said ODH Director Ted Wymyslo, M.D. “Employees from the ODH Food safety program will never come into an establishment alone to conduct an inspection, they will always be with local inspectors.” Over the past few weeks, the ODH Food Safety Program has received numerous phone calls from local health departments and restaurants across the state indicating that people claim- ing to be state health inspectors are contacting food service operators throughout Ohio. In some instances, these individuals request to schedule an inspection of the food service operation. In other instances, individuals have entered establishments trying to collect business and personal information. “ODH food safety staff will never ask food service operators for credit card, personal or financial information,” Dr. Wymyslo added. In Ohio, local health departments license and inspect food service establishments. Local inspectors typically will not schedule any inspections in advance or call to request an inspection. Food service operators with questions about the inspection process should contact their local health department.

STAFF REPORT RUTLAND — The new picnic shelter at the Meigs SWCD Conservation Area was officially dedicated during a brief ribbon-cutting ceremony Thursday morning. Joe Bolin, president of the Meigs SWCD Board of Supervisors made a few brief comments recognizing volunteers and donors for the project including American Electric PowerGavin Plant, the Meigs County Health Department, Rutland Township Board of Trustees as well as the contractor, Right-hand Builders, Meigs SWCD staff members and others. “This shelter house on our Conservation Area was built to serve the present local community as a place to observe nature, have family gatherings, walk the trails, view the wildlife, and just enjoy the outdoors,” he said. “The shelter house will also be used for our future generations as a place of education. It will serve as a starting point for our annual watershed camps, junior high and high school envirothons, soil judging, grade-school field days, teacher workshops and other educational gatherings for children and adults.” The new picnic shelter is 56 feet long by 30 feet wide. The bulk of the cost of installation was through a $9,000 donation from American Electric Power’s Gavin Plant. Baum Lumber donated the geotextile fabric while G & W Plastics donated the drain pipe, and $1,000 left over from the walking path construction was also utilized. As-yet-unnamed benefactors donated the four 16-foot picnic tables. The 174-acre Meigs SWCD Conservation Area has been a steady work in progress since it was purchased by the district in 2003 under the Clean Ohio grant program. The past eight years have also seen the construction of trails and paths, a parking lot, prairie areas and a 2-acre wetland. The Conservation Area is located along New Lima Road between Rutland and Harrisonville and is generally open to the public from dawn to dusk. The new shelter is available for use by the public on a first-come, first-served basis but can also be reserved for specific days by calling the Meigs SWCD at 740-9924282.

Meigs County Notice of Explanation Flood Plain Development Meigs County intends to undertake a CDBG 2010 Neighborhood Revitilization Program Clearance project, for the purpose of demolition of various housing units within the Village of Racine. Portions of the project may be located in the 100 year floodplain. The proposed projects cannot be undertaken in any other location as there is no practical alternative for the locations of the projects. The CDBG Neighborhood Revitalization demolition project can only take place where there is a need and it is known that the need may be targeted in these base flood areas. Therefore, it is the judgement of the Meigs County Commissioners that the benefits to the residents that live in these areas in various locations in Racine Village, outweighs consideration of Executive Orders 11988 and 11990. A more detailed description of the project and the FIRM Flood Maps are available for citizen review at the Meigs County Grants Office, 117 E. Memorial Drive, Suite 7, Pomeroy, Ohio 45769.

Books threaten to take over her home Dear Dr. Brothers: Everyone seems to be talking about people hoarding things, and there seem to be a lot of shows on TV featuring people who can’t live in their homes because of all their belongings. Even people who collect too many cats or dogs have their own shows now, it seems. Well, I have a similar problem, but it is not that out of control yet: I find I can’t stop collecting books. Is there any cure for this, or will I be doomed to have my books take over my house? — A.C. Dear A.C.: It’s a little worse when you collect books instead of, say, newspapers. They cost more, are heavier, take up more room and are harder psychologically to get rid of. And there is a fine line between responsible collecting of anything and going overboard. It sounds like you have just recently acquired this bad habit of bringing more books into your home than you think is reasonable. If this is the first time you have collected something or indulged in a compulsive behavior, you may be quite bewildered about what is going on or how to put a stop to it before it does become a drain on your life in some way. As with other hoarding issues, you could have a problem with compulsivity, or you could have an impulse-control issue. If you can make some rules Dr. Joyce Brothers for yourself and stick to them, you may be able to step back and look at your behavior in an objective way. Decide what area of your home you are happy to give over to books. Put a limit on the amount of money you are going to spend or how many volumes you can handle. See if going to the library and returning books satisfies you. At this point, you should have a better idea of how serious an issue this is for you, and whether it would be best to seek some help. ••• Dear Dr. Brothers: It seems that every time our book discussion group gets together — once a week — one of the members, who happens to be a working poet, tries to take over every discussion. Somehow, no matter what the book topic starts out to be, he twists it around to be all about him. He does contribute valuable insights when he stays on topic, so we like to have him as a member, but how do we try to rein him in without cutting him off or insulting him? — C.M. Dear C.M.: It sounds like your poet member senses he is the life of the book-group party, and is making every effort to milk it for all it’s worth. As someone who performs regularly, he may have a really different view of the gatherings than you and the other members do. To you, perhaps it’s an informal or more formal setting in which to casually discuss some of your current reading. He may find this a bit of a challenge, especially if you all wish he would shut up and sit down. And that might not happen without a change of rules or procedure within your group. Without singling out any individual, you could ask the group to set up some new guidelines for the discussions so that everyone can be included — and if you think about it, the poet probably is hogging the time some less-assertive person would be using to put in his or her two cents’ worth. Take turns, set time limits, ask different people to host — in other words, try to bring out some other players on book day so that the poet can recede a bit into the background. If this doesn’t help, someone might need to suck it up and speak to him privately. (c) 2011 by King Features Syndicate �OPINION Page 4 Tuesday, April 19, 2011 Super rich see federal taxes drop dramatically BY STEPHEN OHLEMACHER ASSOCIATED PRESS Still scrambling to file your taxes? You’ll probably take little consolation in hearing that the super rich pay a lot less taxes than they did a couple of decades ago. And nearly half of U.S. households pay no income taxes at all. The Internal Revenue Service tracks the tax returns with the 400 highest adjusted gross incomes each year. The average income on those returns in 2007, the latest year for IRS data, was nearly $345 million. Their average federal income tax rate was 17 percent, down from 26 percent in 1992. Over the same period, the average federal income tax rate for all taxpayers declined to 9.3 percent from 9.9 percent. The top income tax rate is 35 percent, so how can people who make so much pay so little in taxes? The nation’s tax laws are packed with breaks for people at every income level. There are breaks for having children, paying a mortgage, going to college, and even for paying other taxes. Plus, the top rate on capital gains is only 15 percent. There are so many breaks that 45 percent of U.S. households will pay no federal income tax for 2010, according to estimates by the Tax Policy Center, a Washington think tank. “It’s the fact that we are using the tax code both to collect revenue, which is its primary purpose, and to deliver these spending benefits that we run into the situation where so many people are paying no taxes,” said Roberton Williams, a senior fellow at the center, which generated the estimate of people who pay no income taxes. The sheer volume of credits, deductions and exemptions has both Democrats and Republicans calling for tax laws to be overhauled. House Republicans want to eliminate breaks to pay for lower overall rates, reducing the top tax rate from 35 percent to 25 percent. Republicans oppose raising taxes, but they argue that a more efficient tax code would increase economic activity, generating additional tax revenue. President Barack Obama said last week he wants to do away with tax breaks to lower the rates and to reduce government borrowing. Obama’s proposal would result in $1 trillion in tax increases over the next 12 years. Neither proposal included many details, putting off hard choices about which tax breaks to eliminate. In all, the tax code is filled with a total of $1.1 trillion in credits, deductions and exemptions, an average of about $8,000 per taxpayer, according to an analysis by the National Taxpayer Advocate, an independent watchdog within the IRS. Rep. John Tierney, D-Mass., has introduced a bill to eliminate about $60 billion in tax breaks, mostly for businesses. The bill would require a regular review of all tax breaks to see if they still serve their original purpose. “Right how they don’t even come into the conversation,” Tierney said. “We need to get them into the conversation and have the information on which to make a good solid decision.” More than half of the nation’s tax revenue came from the top 10 percent of earners in 2007. More than 44 percent came from the top 5 percent. Still, the wealthy have access to much more lucrative tax breaks than people with lower incomes. Obama wants the wealthy to pay so “the amount of taxes you pay isn’t determined by what kind of accountant you can afford.” The Obamas released their 2010 federal income tax return Monday and reported an adjusted gross income of $1.7 million. They paid $453,770, or 26 percent, in federal income taxes. Vice President Joe Biden and his wife, Jill, reported an income of $379,178. The Bidens paid $86,626 in federal income taxes, or 23 percent. Eric Schoenberg says to sign him up for paying higher taxes. Schoenberg, who inherited money and has a healthy portfolio from his days as an investment banker, has joined a group of other wealthy Americans called Responsible Wealth, which is project of the group, United for a Fair Economy. Their goal: Raise taxes on rich people like themselves. Schoenberg, who now teaches a business class at Columbia University, said his income is usually “north of half a million a year.” But 2009 was a bad year for investments, so his income dropped to a little over $200,000. His federal income tax bill was a little more than $2,000. “I simply point out to people, ‘Do you think this is reasonable, that somebody in my circumstances should only be paying 1 percent of their income in tax?’” Schoenberg said. Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah, the top Republican on the Senate Finance Committee, said he has a solution for rich people who want to pay more in taxes: Write a check to the IRS. There’s nothing stopping you. “There’s still time before the filing deadline for them to give Uncle Sam some more money,” Hatch said. Schoenberg said Hatch’s suggestion misses the point. “This voluntary idea clearly represents a mindset that basically pretends there’s no such things as collective goods that we produce,” Schoenberg said. “Are you going to let people volunteer to build the road system? Are you going to let them volunteer to pay for education?” The law is packed with tax breaks that help narrow special interests. But many of the biggest tax breaks benefit millions of American families at just about every income level, making them difficult for politicians to touch. The vast majority of those who escape federal income taxes have low and medium incomes, and most of them pay other taxes, including Social Security and Medicare taxes, property taxes and retail sales taxes. The share of people paying no federal income tax has dropped slightly the past two years. It was 47 percent for 2009. The main difference for 2010 was the expiration of a tax break that exempted the first $2,400 of unemployment benefits from taxation, Williams said. In 2009, nearly 35 million taxpayers got a tax break for paying interest on their home mortgages, and nearly 36 million taxpayers took the $1,000-perchild tax credit. About 41 million households reduced their federal income taxes by deducting state and local income and sales taxes from their taxable income. About 36 million families cut their taxes by nearly $35 billion by deducting charitable donations, and 28 million taxpayers saved a total of $24 billion because their income from Social Security and railroad pensions was untaxed. “As a matter of policy, there would be a lot of ways to save money and actually make these things work better,” said Leonard Burman, a public affairs professor at Syracuse University. “As a matter of politics, it’s really, really difficult.” Poll: Students optimistic despite money doubts BY CONNIE CASS ASSOCIATED PRESS The American dream of life getting better for each new generation feels like a myth to many of today’s young adults. After coming of age during a deep recession, most expect to have a harder time buying a house and saving for retirement than their parents did. More than 4 in 10 predict it will be tougher to raise a family and afford the lifestyle they want, according to an Associated Press-Viacom poll of Americans ages 18 to 24. Only about a fourth expect things to be easier for them than the previous generation — a cherished goal of many hardworking parents. “I just don’t really see myself being able to obtain the kind of money my parents could when they were my age,” said Mark McNally, 23, who earned a history degree from the University of Minnesota a year ago and now works part-time in a liquor store. San Francisco State University nursing student Ashley Yates is confident she’ll build a career in health care but expects money to be tighter in her lifetime. “Social Security may not even exist when I’m older,” said Yates, 23. “Health insurance is going up. Everything just costs more.” Sounds like a bummer, right? Yet most young adults are shrugging it off. Despite financial disappointments, they overwhelmingly say they’re happy with their lives, much more so than older folks in similar surveys. Youthful optimism — with perhaps a touch of naivete — lives on. A whopping 90 percent expect to find careers that will bring them happiness, if not wealth. Linka Preus, who’s taking a year off her career track to work in an Ithaca, N.Y., bagel bakery, figures every generation has its own struggles, and bad economies eventually improve. “Even if it never gets better permanently, we’ll adjust to whatever it is,” said Preus, 22, a linguistics and cognitive science grad from Cornell University who plans to pursue her passion for science in graduate school. McNally, the history major, says he’s enjoying life as a part-time clerk in the Minneapolis suburb of Edina before he gets tied down in a research or analyst job. “I’ll be able to find one in the future, I’m sure of it,” McNally said. “I’ll find one or go back to school.” High unemployment has left lots of young lives in limbo. Among students who don’t plan to go to work right after college, three-fourths say the limited number of open jobs in their field was important to their decision. Riding out the tough times in grad school is a popular choice for those with the means. But for some without such options, optimism is hard to muster.

At least I feel that way,” said Watkins, 23, a high school graduate who lives with his mother and tries to compensate her by doing chores. He’s seeking work of any type. “Honestly, at this point, I wouldn’t care. In this economy, you take what you can get.” Young people today are more pessimistic about their economic futures than young adults in a similar poll in April 2007, eight months before the recession began. And most say they cannot afford the things they want or are struggling at least a little to make their money last through each week. About half are dependent on family members for financial support. Seventy-five percent say the economy is in poor shape, on par with older people surveyed in a recent AP-GfK poll. And they’re not just worried about themselves; 7 out of 10 fret about their parents’ finances. About 20 percent saw a parent laid off during the past year and a half, according to the AP-Viacom study, conducted in partnership with Stanford University. Money troubles are steering the course of young lives. A majority say finances were a key factor in deciding whether to continue their educations Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Lucas Ward couldn’t keep up with the tuition in community college, despite working three jobs at once — at a gas station, a hotel and a restaurant in scenic and touristy Hood River, Ore. With youthful pluck, he found opportunity elsewhere. Ward fell into a job doing a bit of everything for a small outdoor clothing company, and the business took off. The housing collapse that busted so many baby boomers made prices suddenly affordable, so Ward bought a home. At 23, he’s about to invest in a second house and building his own clothing company. “A lot of stuff in the news is telling everyone that they can’t, that the economy is crumbling and there’s no room for anyone to do anything,” Ward said. “But I’m watching that being disproven every day.” The AP-Viacom telephone survey of 1,104 adults ages 18-24 was conducted Feb. 18-March 6 by GfK Roper Public Affairs & Corporate Communications.

Common Pleas Court Civil • A civil judgment action filed by Capital One Bank against Warren D. Hart, Pomeroy. 15-state tornado outbreak deadliest since 2008 BY RANDOLPH E. SCHMID ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — The devastation is stunning — homes and lives shattered as the deadliest swarm of twisters in three years battered up to 15 states. Ultimately, this could turn out to be among the top 10 three-day outbreaks for number of tornadoes, though experts can’t be sure until all the reports are sorted, said Greg Carbin of the federal Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Okla. While tornadoes occur regularly, their power always shocks. This time it was storms battering their way from Oklahoma to North Carolina, claiming at least 44 lives, almost half of those in North Carolina. It was the deadliest since Feb. 5, 2008, when 57 died in the “Super Tuesday” election day tornadoes in the Southeast. And that was the highest tornado death toll since 76 died in 1985. “A major storm system like this is going to happen every few years, usually in April or May,” said Carbin. While May is the nation’s busiest month for twisters, they surge sharply in April, and most early spring tornadoes strike the Southeast and South Central states. Indeed, the biggest tornado outbreak on record occurred April 3-4, 1974 when 147 confirmed twisters touched down in 13 states, claiming 310 lives in the United States and 8 in Canada. For about the past 30 years, the United States has averaged 135 tornadoes in April, the highest number being 266 in 1974, according to Jake Crouch of the National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, N.C. In these latest storms, the National Weather Service is investigating 267 preliminary tornado reports — including 97 in North Carolina on Saturday. But many of those will turn out to be duplicates, Carbin said in a telephone interview Such a large number of reports has become typical in recent years as more people watch for the storms and call them in. Normally more than half turn out to be duplicates and Carbin estimated that the final count for this series of storms will be around 140. Teams are out assessing the damage now, but he said it can take several days to more than a week to make a final determination. In this case, the storm system first developed over the Pacific and intensified when it got to the central Plains on Thursday where the dry western air collided with the warm humid air from the Gulf of Mexico. The Daily Sentinel • Page 5 Powell was chosen for his “amazing compassion and dedication to his job.” White said Powell is literally “on call” 24 hours a day and not just for the youth of Meigs County but neighboring Mason County, W.Va. — juveniles ending up in court for drug offenses seem to know no boundaries. Along with his already existing commitment to the IMPACT program, this year Powell’s efforts to educate the public about synthetic marijuana and its affects on young people prompted organizers to choose him for the “Hero of the Year” award. “He really led the charge last year to get synthetic marijuana outlawed which was really harming kids,” White said. “He reaches out and does more than the job he was hired to do and as far as we’re concerned, he had a huge impact getting synthetic marijuana off the streets. We can count on him doing the right thing as well as supporting our program which he attends every year.” Powell himself said he was surprised when in front of 7,000 people he leaned he’d received the award. Instead of talking about why he thought he was chosen for the award, Powell instead wanted to talk about the ever increasing drug problem amongst juveniles. He said in eight years the caseload for children’s services has tripled and he guessed four out of every five cases he hears is drug-related. Powell, along with many others, continue to network and inform the public of drug trends in Meigs County through a community coalition which meets monthly. “Everyone working together is the only way to make an impact,” Powell said. S&P cuts long-term outlook for US debt to negative BY PAUL WISEMAN ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service downgraded its outlook Monday on U.S. government debt, expressing unprecedented doubts over the ability of Washington to bring the massive federal budget deficits under control. The agency lowered the long-term outlook to “Negative” from “Stable,” saying there is a one in three chance the United States could lose its top investment rating on its debt in the next two years. S&P said it has little confidence that the White House and Congress will agree on a deficit-reduction plan before the fall 2012 elections and doubts any plan would be in place until after 2014. The government is on pace to run a record $1.5 trillion deficit this year, the third consecutive deficit exceeding $1 trillion. President Barack Obama and congressional Republicans are sparring over how to reduce the nation’s red ink. Their differences over where to cut have put a crucial decision over raising the nation’s debt limit in jeopardy. “We see the path to agreement as challenging because the gap between the parties remains wide,” said Standard & Poor’s credit analyst Nikola G. Swann. Stocks plunged after the rating agency lowered its outlook The Dow Jones industrial average fell more than 200 points in afternoon trading. S&P reaffirmed its investment-grade credit ratings on the U.S. long- and short-term debt itself. But it said the U.S. government is in danger of losing the top ranking if it doesn’t come up with a credible plan for reducing its debt. The agency gives its top investment rating to just 19 of the 127 countries it analyzes. But it says Britain, France and Germany have moved much more quickly to contain deficits after the 2008 financial crisis and 2007-2009 recession — which cut tax revenues and forced governments to spend more on unemployment benefits, aid to the poor and bailouts of the banking system. S&P said the U.S. has a fundamentally strong, diversified economy. Still, the agency noted that the U.S. deficit grew to 11 percent of gross domestic income in 2009. That is much higher than the 5 percent or less the country had averaged in the previous six years. Obama and Republicans have each proposed plans that would cut $4 trillion from future deficits over the next 12 years. The White House wants to reduce the deficit through spending cuts and by ending tax cuts for the wealthy enacted during the presidency of George W. Bush. Congressional Republicans oppose that approach, rejecting what they see as an increase in taxes. They seek instead to narrow the deficit largely by overhauling Medicare and cutting spending elsewhere. Mary Miller, the assistant Treasury secretary for financial markets, said S&P “underestimates the ability of America’s leaders to come together to address the difficult fiscal challenges facing the nation.” The president and Congress are working on ways to reduce budget deficits over the long term, she said. The fight over the deficit and next year’s budget is threatening the government’s ability to borrow. Analysts say S&P is warning the two parties not to play politics with the debt ceiling. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said Sunday that Republican leaders have privately assured the Obama administration that Congress will raise the government’s borrowing limit in time to avoid an unprecedented default on the nation’s debt.

Member SIPC. Pentagon inquiry clears McChrystal of wrongdoing BY ROBERT BURNS ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — A Pentagon inquiry into a Rolling Stone magazine profile of Gen. Stanley McChrystal that led to his dismissal as the top US commander in Afghanistan has cleared him of wrongdoing. The probe’s results released Monday also called into question the accuracy of the magazine’s report last June, which quoted anonymously people around McChrystal making disparaging remarks about members of President Barack Obama’s national security team, including Vice President Joe Biden. At the time he dismissed McChrystal, Obama said the general had fallen short of “the standard that should be set by a commanding general.” The Defense Department inspector general’s report, however, concluded that available evidence did not support the conclusion that McChrystal had violated any applicable legal or ethics standard. Last week the White House tapped McChrystal to head a new advisory board to support military families, an initiative led by First Lady Michelle Obama and Jill Biden, wife of the vice president. The selection of McChrystal was announced on April 12, four days after the inspector general’s report was finished. The inspector general’s conclusions were first reported Monday by The New York Times, which obtained the report under a Freedom of Information Act request. The Pentagon subsequently posted the report on its website. �Page A6 • The Daily Sentinel www.mydailysentinel.com Tuesday, April 19, 2011 www.mydailysentinel.com �Tuesday, April 19, 2011 POLICIES Ohio Valley Publishing reserves the right to edit, reject or cancel any ad at any time. ¾Errors Must Be Reported on the first day of publication and the TribuneSentinel-Register will be responsible for no more than the cost of the space occupied by the error and only the first insertion.

On June 2, 2010 U.S. EPA replaced the 24hour and annual standards with a new short-term standard based on the 3-year average of the 99th percentile of the yearly distribution of 1-hour daily maximum SO2 concentrations. U.S. EPA established the level of the new 1-hour standard at 75 parts per billion (ppb). Ohio does not currently have any areas designated as nonattainment for SO2.Comments received will be used to formulate the State’s formal recommendation proposal to U.S. EPA due by June 3, 2011. Ohio EPA’s preliminary recommendations to address the revised SO2 standard are as follows: · Recommend the following areas be designated nonattainment: Belmont County, Columbiana County, Cuyahoga County, Jefferson County, Lake County, Meigs County and Cheshire Township in Gallia County, and Morgan County and Waterford Township in Washington County; · Recommend that the following counties be designated attainment: Ashland, Brown, Carroll, Champaign, Clinton, Crawford, Darke, Defiance, Delaware, Fairfield, Fayette, Geauga, Hancock, Hardin, Harrison, Highland, Hocking, Holmes, Huron, Jackson, Knox, Logan, Madison, Medina, Mercer, Miami, Morrow, Noble, Perry, Portage, Preble, Putnam, Vinton, Warren, Williams, and Wyandot. · Recommend that the remaining counties in Ohio be designated unclassifiable.

Reds’ Leake arrested on shoplifting charge CINCINNATI (AP) — The Reds placed utility player Juan Francisco on the 15-day disabled list Monday with a strained left calf. Francisco hurt the calf while completing a swing during a game on Saturday night. He’s batting .211 in nine games. The Reds selected the contract of outfielder Jeremy Hermida from Triple-A Louisville to take his spot. He signed a minor league deal with the Reds in January. Hermida was with Florida from 2005-09. He played in 52 games last season for Boston, batting .203 with five homers and 27 RBIs before getting designated for assignment. He went to Oakland and batted .250 in 21 games with a homer and five RBIs. The Reds also moved right-hander Jared Burton from the 15-day to the 60-day dis- CINCINNATI (AP) — Reds pitcher Mike Leake was arrested on a shoplifting charge at a downtown department store Monday, accused of trying to steal six shirts valued at $59.88. The 23-year-old starter was booked at the Hamilton County Justice Center on a firstdegree misdemeanor charge of shoplifting. It carries a maximum of 180 days in jail. He was arrested about two hours before Reds pitchers were expected at Great American Ball Park to take batting practice before the final game of a series against Pittsburgh. Leake started and got the victory in an 11-2 win over the Pirates on Saturday afternoon. The Reds were trying to get details of the arrest and had no immediate comment. Police arrest reports said Leake removed the price tags from six American Rag shirts at a Macy’s store and tried to leave without paying for them. Leake makes $425,000 in his second season in the majors. Leake was the eighth overall pick in the June 2009 draft and made the jump directly from Arizona State to the majors last spring, when he won the fifth starter’s spot in the rotation. He was the 21st player who went right from the draft to the majors since 1965. The right-hander helped the Reds get started toward their NL Central title, going 8-4 with a 4.23 ERA in 22 starts and two relief appearances. The Reds shut him down at 138 1-3 innings, not wanting to hurt his arm by pushing him too far as a rookie. The Reds have been relying on Leake again this season while they get through shoulder injuries to starters Johnny Cueto and Homer Bailey, who are on rehab stints in the minors and could return by the end of the month. Leake has made three starts, going 2-0 with a 5.40 ERA.

The visiting Lady Falcons (9-5) stormed out to a 2-0 lead after a half-inning of play, but the Lady Marauders (44) rallied with three scores in their half of the first for a 3-2 edge after one complete. Meigs kept its momentum going in the second frame as Hannah Porter was issued a leadoff walk, then Cheyenne Beaver followed with a single to put runners on the corners with nobody out. Kelsey Shuler grounded out, but Porter scored on the play to give the hosts a 4-2 cushion after two complete. The score stayed that way until the top of the fourth, as Wahama erupted for three runs to recapture the lead at 5-4. WHS would go on to lead the rest of the way. Kelsey Billups delivered a two-RBI double Billups Beaver that allowed Molly Larck and Sierra Carmichael to score for a 4-all tie, then Kastle Balser brought home Billups with an RBI single for a Wahama 5-4 edge. The Lady Falcons added three runs in the sixth for a 8-4 cushion, but Meigs countered with a run in the bottom of the seventh to pull back to within 8-5 with two outs in the inning. Larck induced Tess Phelps into a groundout, which wrapped up the decision for the guests. Both teams managed double-digits in the hit department, as Wahama knocked out 15 safeties and Meigs had 10 hits. Wahama also committed one error and the Lady Marauders made two miscues. Balser and Larck led WHS with three hits apiece, followed by Billups and Mariah VanMatre with two safeties apiece. Carmichael, Karista Ferguson, Alex Wood, Ashley Templeton and Chelsea Stewart rounded things out with one hit each. Phelps, Chandra Stanley and Cheyenne Beaver all had two hits apiece for the Lady Marauders, followed by Porter, Liddy Fish, Emalee Glass and Allyson Davis with one safety each. Molly Larck was the winning pitcher of record, allowing four hits and one run over five innings of relief while fanning one. Ashley Templeton started and record one walk and one strikeout over two innings, allowing five hits and four runs. MHS starter Lisa Marie Wise took the loss, allowing 15 hits and five earned runs over seven innings while walking one and striking out six.

RedStorm unable to score at All-Ohio BY MARK WILLIAMS SPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL CINCINNATI, Ohio — The University of Rio Grande RedStorm men’s and women’s track and field squads competed at the All-Ohio Championships this past weekend at the University of Cincinnati’s Gettler Stadium. Rio was not able to generate any points in competing against 14 other schools on the women’s side and 13 on the men’s side, mostly from the NCAA Division I level. The top performer for the RedStorm was sophomore Travontae Wilson. Wilson finished 12th in the triple jump with a top effort of 38 feet, 1 1/4”. Wilson also registered a 22nd place finish in the 100-meter dash, posting a time of 11.95. Senior hurdler Justin Francisco finished 13th overall in the 110-meter hurdles with a time of 15.99.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. got the checkered flag. Maybe they should go in the NASCAR record books as co-winners. In a finish that matched the closest in Sprint Cup history, Johnson edged Clint Bowyer by about a foot to win a Talladega two-step Sunday — a victory that wouldn’t have been possible without a big push from Earnhardt. Junior gave up a chance to end a 101-race winless streak, selflessly agreeing to shove the No. 48 car of his Hendrick Motorsports teammate instead of vice versa in what was essentially a tag-team event. “I can’t thank Junior enough,” Johnson said. “He made the decision that my car was faster leading. And the way these things are finishing up, the lead car’s going to get the win. ... He was more worried about the team having a good performance than anything.” The official margin was two-thousandths of a second, tied with Ricky Craven’s win at Darlington in 2003 for the closest since NASCAR went to electronic timing. It came down to an eight-car sprint. Well, actually, four pairs of cars, with only the guys at the front of the duos having a chance to win the Aaron’s 499. After laying back most of the day, the five-time series champion hugged the yellow line at the bottom of the track — flirting with a penalty — and pulled out his 54th career victory and first of the season. “We were just the lucky guy at the end with a good run,” Johnson said. “We had some big mo on our side, and off we went.” He couldn’t have done it without Earnhardt, who was given the checkered flag by the winner. “That just came to my mind,” Johnson said. “He was like, ‘Man, I don’t want that.’ But I told him, ‘I have to give you something for the push and working with me.’ He just said, ‘That’s what teammates do.’” Even though Earnhardt hasn’t won since 2008, he thought it was a no-brainer to get behind Johnson. “If I couldn’t win the race,” Junior said, “I wanted Jimmie to win the race, because I had worked with him all day and he is my teammate.” There was a bit of dispute over Johnson’s winning move. He clearly touched the yellow line with his left tires, but appeared to be forced low by an attempted block from his other two Hendrick teammates, Jeff Gordon and pusher Mark Martin. NASCAR officials ruled it was a legal pass. “I was not focused on where the yellow line was,” Johnson said. “I was more worried about causing a big pileup. Luckily, the 5 car (Martin) quit coming down. I don’t know where my left-side tires were, but I’m glad we’re not here worrying about that.” Johnson got a huge run coming out of the fourth turn, surged past Gordon and Martin coming through the trioval and edged Bowyer in a fourwide dash down the long finishing straightaway at T a l l a d e g a Superspeedway. “What a bummer,” said Bowyer, who led a racehigh 38 laps. “I saw him coming.” Earnhardt was fourth. Kevin Harvick, who was Bowyer’s pusher, wound up fifth. Carl Edwards almost got into the mix as well, going right up against the outside wall with Greg Biffle on his bumper but didn’t have enough room to pull it off, finishing sixth. Biffle was seventh, while Martin slipped to eighth. The top eight were just 0.145 seconds apart. The finish made up for a day of lackluster racing with this new tandem style, which the drivers began using at the season-opening Daytona 500 and really perfected at this 2.66-mile trioval. Twenty-six leaders swapped the top spot 88 times, tying the record set in last year’s spring race at Talladega. Many of those changes were carefully choreographed by pairs who were merely trying to stay out of trouble, conserve their cars and give themselves a chance at the end. “If you didn’t like that finish and forget about the race, there’s something wrong with you,” Bowyer said. “It always seems to fix itself at the end of these restrictorplate races. We always have a hell of a finish.” Hendrick Motorsports claimed the first four spots in qualifying, only the third team in NASCAR history to sweep the first two rows in a Cup race. They were all right there at the end. “With as crazy as it gets in these closing laps, sometimes a third is almost like a victory at these type of race tracks,” Gordon said. Before that, it was a lot of mundane ridingaround. Rather than run together in huge drafting packs, which used to be the norm at the restrictorplate tracks, the drivers figured out they can go even faster in pairs. So, everyone cut deals before the race, usually with teammates, and swapped radio frequencies so they could make changes on the fly if needed once the green flag dropped. One guy in the pairing would run out front for a while, then they’d switch positions before the driver doing the pushing overheated his car. The most important thing was staying together. During an early pit stop, Johnson stayed in a little longer to make some adjustments on his car. Earnhardt just idled in his box, waiting to go back out with his partner. “It’s different,” said Chad Knaus, Johnson’s crew chief. “It’s definitely different.” Of course, bumping cars from behind and pulling off choreographed switches at 190 mph didn’t always go smoothly — especially when the second driver in a tandem can’t see a thing. Kurt Busch can attest to that. He twice got into cars while pushing, totally blind to what was going on in front of him. First, the No. 22 car nudged the rear bumper of Landon Cassill’s machine on lap 28, sending him into Brian Vickers, whose car smashed into the outer wall at the start of the backstretch. Fortunately, Vickers entirely missed a wave of cars bearing down on his sliding vehicle. Busch was at the center of things again on the second crash of the day. He appeared to clip Brad Keselowski from behind when the lead car slowed, sparking a five-car melee that also took out Daytona 500 winner Trevor Bayne, David Ragan, Marcus Ambrose and Kasey Kahne, who had to abandon his smoking car before getting back to pit road. The 20-year-old Bayne had another disappointing finish since that improbable Daytona win in just his second Cup start. The youngster hasn’t finished higher than 17th since then, dropping all the way to 40th at Talladega. “So much is out of your hands here,” said Matt Kenseth, who was taken out in the other big crash of the day. “It’s a frustrating type of racing, to say the least. It would be nice to be able to see and control your own destiny a little more.” �SPORTS The Daily Sentinel Lady Raiders 2nd, Lady Eagles 3rd at Warren Invite BY SARAH HAWLEY SHAWLEY@MYDAILYTRIBUNE.COM VINCENT, Ohio — The River Valley and Eastern track teams took part in the 2011 Warren Insurance Invitational on Saturday at Warren High School.
