Students taste adult life
BY STEPHANIE GROVES

OTTOVILLE Fort
Jennings and Ottoville
eighth-graders and freshmen
students experienced a trial
run at adult spending in a
two-hour program simulating
the real-life experiences of
money management and the
correlation between educa-
tional attainments and earn-
ing power.
Each year, Americas high
schools graduate thousands of
young adults who are unpre-
pared in matters of employ-
ment and financial decisions.
With Real Money, Real World
programs partnerships of
the OSU County Extension
Office, schools and business
communities young peo-
ple are given the opportunity
to make lifestyle and budget
choices through an active,
hands-on experience.
Putnam County 4-H Youth
Development Educator Jason
Hedrick explained the pre-
liminary work the students
perform prior to attending the
hands-on program.
Each student completes
three or four lessons in a
careers- and/or finance-
related class, Hedrick said.
Then they are given a ran-
dom generated family a
wife or husband and children
and then try to balance
the necessities, as well as
luxuries, with the reality of
monthly income.
Fort Jennings eighth-
grader Kyle Maag chose his
profession as an electrician.
With a family of three to sup-
port and a budget of $3,125
per month, he found that after
deducting a car with insur-
ance, a house with insurance,
entertainment, a credit card,
college loan payment and a
loss of income on a chance he
took, he had only $1,042 left
to purchase the balance of his
necessities.
Its been a good learn-
ing experience and teaches
real life situations, Maag
was introspective, especially
when you jump from high
school to paying for every-
thing yourself.
Jessica Young, a freshmen
from Fort Jennings, chose to
be a pharmacist. Her simu-
lated family included a hus-
band, one toddler and a bud-
get before taxes of $6,500.
This experience opened
my eyes to the expenses my
parents incur everyday,
Young spoke insightfully.

NY mayor seeks more disaster
aid for Sandy victims
By ANDREW MIGA
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON New
York City Mayor Michael
Bloomberg appealed to con-
gressional leaders Wednesday
for quick action on provid-
ing tens of billions of dollars
in new federal aid to help
his city and state and oth-
ers recover from Superstorm
Sandy but was told it might
be some time before its
forthcoming and it likely
wont be all at once.
Bloomberg met with more
than a half-dozen lawmakers,
including several who chair
or sit on committees control-
ling the governments purse
strings, as well and both par-
ties leaders in the House and
Senate.
Hurricane recovery is
not a partisan issue, he told
reporters at a news confer-
ence in between the meetings.
We have to bring together
both sides in Washington.
New York state alone is
seeking $42 billion in addi-
tional federal aid. New Jersey
is seeking federal aid to cover
most of the nearly $37 billion
cost for recovery and rebuild-
ing.
So far about $2 billion in
federal funds about half
for direct assistance to indi-
viduals have been pro-
vided to the two most heav-
ily damaged states and nine
others in the storms path.
Theres about $5 billion left
in the Federal Emergency
Management Agencys disas-
ter relief fund, but last years
budget agreement permits
President Barack Obama
to seek another $5.4 billion
without hitting a ceiling on
spending.
Sen. Susan Collins of
Maine, a member of the
Appropriations Committee
and the top Republican on
the Homeland Security
Committee that oversees
disaster relief, struck a skep-
tical note after her meeting
with the mayor.
Its going to be a
hard sell, she said, given
Congresss preoccupation
with the fiscal cliff crisis
and tight budget restraints.
Reflecting a line taken in
the past by House Budget
Committee Chairman Paul
Ryan and other fiscal con-
servatives, she said at least
some of the new spending for
Sandy relief and rebuilding
should be offset by spend-
ing cuts in other government
programs.
Otherwise its just going
to be added to the debt and
that makes it even more dif-
ficult for us to deal with the
fiscal challenges, she said.
Collins said she needs to
see more detailed numbers
on damages before deciding
on how much Sandy aid is
needed. But she said New
Yorks request is reason-
able if the damages can be
documented and added that
state and city officials have
not tried to exaggerate the
damages, as she claims hap-
pened with Hurricane Katrina
seven years ago.
Bloomberg and New York
Sen. Chuck Schumer said
they were pressing White
House officials for as much
money as possible, as soon
as possible, but they didnt
know what amount Obama
will seek. Whatever it is, the
request could get tied up in
the talks aimed at averting
the fiscal cliff a $6 trillion
combination of automatic tax
increases and spending cuts
beginning in January.
Theres no doubt this is
going to be a hard fight,
said Schumer. We have a
Congress that is decidedly
less friendly to disaster aid
than any in 100 years. Were
in very strenuous negotia-
tions over the fiscal cliff.
We know money is short in
Washington, just as it is in
New York.
Schumer said he expects
the fight for Sandy money
to drag on for months and
that several emergency
spending bills will be need-
ed. State officials worry that
Congresss desire to satisfy
the hunger for aid will fade as
time wears on.
Faber to lead Ohio Senate
Faber
Information submitted
COLUMBUS State
Senator Keith Faber (R-Celina)
Wednesday was unanimously
elected by the Senate Majority
Caucus to serve as President of
the Ohio Senate for the 130th
General Assembly.
President-Elect Faber, who
was first elected to the Ohio
Senate in 2007, has served on
the Senate leadership team
since 2009 when he was select-
ed as Majority Floor Leader
by his colleagues. Currently,
Senator Faber serves as the
Senate President Pro Tempore,
the chambers number two post.
Prior to his time in the Ohio
Senate, Senator Faber served three terms in the Ohio House of
Representatives.
Keith Faber is an outstanding legislator with well-respected
leadership abilities, said outgoing Senate President Thomas E.
Niehaus. I am confident with Senator Fabers background in
both the private and public sector. He has the experience the
Senate needs to navigate these challenging economic times.
The Senate President presides over the chamber when the
Senate is in session and is in charge of enforcing the rules of the
Senate. He also serves as the leader of the Majority Caucus.
I am humbled that my Senate colleagues have placed their
trust in my leadership for the coming General Assembly, said
Faber. As our economic recovery continues, I look forward
to working with Governor Kasich and Speaker Batchelder to
maintain a responsible, balanced state budget while continuing
our work to make Ohio more business friendly.
Having maintained their control of 23 of the chambers 33
seats, the Republicans continue to hold the largest Ohio Senate
majority in more than four decades.
Senator Faber will take the gavel as Senate President when
the 130th General Assembly convenes on Jan. 7, 2013.
Joining the new president will be a newly elected Republican
leadership team that will be made up of Senator Chris Widener
(R-Springfield) as President Pro Tempore, Senator Tom Patton
(R-Strongsville) who will return as Majority Floor Leader and
Senator Larry Obhof (R-Medina), who will serve as Majority
Whip.
Senator Faber resides just outside Celina with his wife and
two children. He is active with the Chamber of Commerce,
the Ohio Farm Bureau and the Ohio Right to Life. He is also
a member of the National Rifle Association and the Mercer
County Sportsman Club.
Hurricane recov-
ery is not a parti-
san issue. We have
to bring together
both sides in
Washington.

two lucky winners for
record Powerball jackpot
By M. sPenCer
Green and JiM CoLe
the Associated Press
CHICAGO Powerball
officials say tickets sold in
Arizona and Missouri matched
all six numbers to win the
record the record $579.9 mil-
lion jackpot. Now the hunt for
the winners begins.
Early this morning officials
confirmed that two winning
tickets had been sold.
The numbers drawn
Wednesday night are: 5, 16,
22, 23, 29 and Powerball of 6.
A lottery official said late
Wednesday that the jackpot
increased to $579.9 million by
the time of the drawing, mak-
ing the cash option $379.8
million.
Americans went on a tick-
et-buying spree in recent days,
the big money enticing many
people who rarely, if ever,
play the lottery to purchase
a shot at the second-largest
payout in U.S. history.
Among them was Lamar
Fallie, a jobless Chicago man
who said his six tickets con-
jured a pleasant daydream:
If he wins, he plans to take
care of his church, make big
donations to schools and then
retire from being unem-
ployed.
Tickets were selling at
a rate of 130,000 a minute
nationwide about six times
the volume from a week ago.
That pushed the jackpot even
higher before the Wednesday
night drawing, said Chuck
Strutt, executive director
of the Multi-State Lottery
Association.
The jackpot had already
rolled over 16 consecutive
times without a winner, but
Powerball officials said ear-
lier Wednesday they believed
there was a 75 percent chance
the winning combination will
be drawn this time.
Some experts had pre-
dicted that if one ticket hit
the right numbers, chances
were good that multiple ones
would. That happened in
the Mega Millions drawing
in March, when three ticket
buyers shared a $656 million
jackpot, which remains the
largest lottery payout of all
time. And it happened again
for Wednesdays Powerball
drawing.
Yvette Gavin, who sold
the tickets to Fallie, is only
an occasional lottery player
herself, but the huge jackpot
means shell definitely play
this time. As for the promises
she often gets from ticket pur-
chasers, Gavin isnt holding
her breath.
A lot of customers say if
they win they will take care of
me, but I will have to wait and
see, she said.
In the hours before
Wednesdays drawing,
Associated Press photogra-
phers across the nation sought
out ticket buyers and asked
about their lottery fantasies.
Heres a look at what they
found:
In Philadelphia, seafood
salesman Billy Fulginiti
bought 50 Powerball tickets
with co-workers and a few
more with a small group. He
said he only plays when the
jackpot is especially large.
You go to bed at night
wishing you wake up a mil-
lionaire, Fulginiti said. He
planned to take a long vaca-
tion and help a lot of people,
a lot of charities, if any of his
tickets turn out to be winners.
Fewer fatalities this
Thanksgiving holiday
information submitted
COLUMBUS
Provisional numbers
released today by the Ohio
State Highway Patrol show
fewer motorists were killed
on Ohios roadways this
Thanksgiving Holiday.
During the reporting peri-
od, which began at mid-
night on Nov. 21 and ran
through 11:59 p.m. Sunday,
11 people were killed on
Ohios roadways. This is a
decrease from the past three
years when 17 were killed
in 2011; 18 in 2010; and 20
in 2009.
Even though fatalities
were on the decline this
holiday weekend, all of
those killed in motor vehi-
cle crashes were not wear-
ing a safety belt. During
the initial hours of the holi-
day reporting period, four
people were killed when
they were ejected during
a single vehicle crash in
Warren County where alco-
hol is suspected.
We are encouraged by
the reduction of fatalities
this weekend however,
motorists need to remember
that wearing a safety belt
is the single most impor-
tant thing they can do to
protect themselves during a
crash, said Colonel John
Born, Patrol superintendent.
Simple things like wearing
a safety belt or designating
a sober driver can go a long
way in ensuring these trag-
edies dont occur.
The patrol arrested 459
drivers for OVI during the
holiday weekend.
A complete statisti-
cal analysis of the patrols
enforcement activity over
the holiday weekend is

with Sara Berelsman
November is a month about gratitude.
There are so many things Im grateful for. One
thing I am grateful for each and every day is
my sobriety. Quitting drinking a little over a
year ago is one of the best decisions Ive ever
made. Id
like to share
a book thats
helped me.
Its called
Living Sober
Sucks (but
living drunk
sucks more)
and its writ-
ten by Mark
Tuschel.
I was
b r o w s i n g
A m a z o n
when I dis-
covered this,
and the title
immediately
drew me in. I am rather sarcastic by nature,
and the name of this book just sounded like
something that would very well accommodate
my sardonic nature. I was right.
Mark Tuschel doesnt have a PhD and hes
not claiming to be a Dr. Phil or Dr. Drew. He
is simply sharing his experience of becom-
ing sober, and sharing some strategies that
have worked for him. His writing voice is
extremely accessible, and I love his sense of
humor. Overcoming alcoholism is no easy
feat, but Ive found that, like with anything
else in life, it helps to accomplish something
big by lightening the mood and being able to
have a sense of humor about it.
Mark Tuschel doesnt hold back when it
comes toanything. If youre turned off by
profanity, then this might not be for you. If
youve made the decision to quit drinking and
want an incredibly caring, yet wisecracking
friend to help you along the way, then this
might be for you. Tuschel talks about the
emotional roller coaster one embarks upon
when sobering up, he talks about how friends
might/will most likely change, he tells of
when he hit rock bottom. He is honest. He is
hilarious. He is smart. And, above all, hes
devoted his life to helping others sober up and
stay that way.
I have read a few other books on this topic,
and their tone was so somber that I couldnt
take it. I kinda wanted to drink after reading
them. This book, though, has been like the
diamond in the rough for me. He has also
written several other books, like his follow-
up to this one, Okay, I quit. Now what? and I
plan on reading those, too.
So obviously this book might not appeal
to everyone, like those who have no inten-
tion of quitting drinking and thats fine.
I think it could be a breath of fresh air for
those who attend AA meetings and those
who dont, but who are interested in becom-
ing sober on their own. I know its helped me
tremendously.

her husband and their two daughters. She

Public Library.
Statistics can prove anything even the truth.

WASHINGTON
Amid increasing anxiety
that the White House and
top Republicans are wasting
time as the government slides
toward an economy-rattling
fiscal cliff, administra-
tion officials are heading to
Capitol Hill for talks with
congressional leaders.
Treasury Secretary Tim
Geithner and senior White
House aide Rob Nabors were
to visit separately today with
the four leaders of the House
and Senate to discuss how to
avert a series of tax increases
and spending cuts due to begin
in January. Republicans com-
plain that the White House is
slow-walking the talks and
has yet to provide specifics
on how President Barack
Obama would curb the rapid
growth of benefit programs
like Medicare and Medicaid.
Theres been little evi-
dent progress in negotiations
between the White House
and the lead GOP negotiator,
House Speaker John Boehner
of Ohio. Boehners lieuten-
ants say the White House has
been slow to engage.
We have not seen any
good-faith effort on the part
of this administration to talk
about the real problem that
were trying to fix, said
House Majority Leader Eric
Cantor, R-Va.
Obama is mounting a pub-
lic campaign to build support
and leverage in the negotia-
tions, appearing at the White
House with middle-class tax-
payers and launching a cam-
paign on Twitter to bolster
his position.
Right now, as we speak,
Congress can pass a law that
would prevent a tax hike on the
first $250,000 of everybodys
income, Obama said. And
that means that 98 percent
of Americans and 97 percent
of small businesses wouldnt
see their income taxes go up
by a single dime.
Obama is insisting that tax
rates go up on family income
exceeding $250,000; Boehner
is adamant that any new tax
revenues come from over-
hauling the tax code, clearing
out tax breaks and lowering
rates for all.
Republicans are also
demanding significant cuts
to so-called entitlement pro-
grams like Medicare, such as
an increase in the eligibility
age for the program from 65
to perhaps 67.
Its time for the presi-
dent and Democrats to get
serious about the spend-
ing problem that our coun-
try has, Boehner said at a
news conference Wednesday
in the Capitol. Boehner, like
Obama, expressed optimism
that a deal could be reached.
At issue are steep, across-
the-board cuts to the Pentagon
and domestic programs set to
strike the economy in January
as well as the expiration of
Bush-era tax cuts on income,
investments, married couples
and families with children.
That combination of tax
increases and spending cuts
would wring more than half a
trillion dollars from the econ-
omy in the first nine months
of next year, according to
the Congressional Budget
Office.
No one anticipates a stale-
mate lasting that long, but
many experts worry that even
allowing the spending cuts
and tax increases for a rela-
tively brief period could rattle
financial markets.
From their public state-
ments, Obama and Boehner
appear at an impasse over
raising the two top tax rates
from 33 percent and 35 per-
cent to 36 percent and 39.6
percent. Democrats seem
confident that Boehner ulti-
mately will have to crumble,
but Obama has a lot at stake as
well, including a clear agenda
for priorities like an overhaul
of the nations immigration
laws.

The Associated Press
WASHINGTON Bitter
campaign foes just weeks
ago, President Barack Obama
and Mitt Romney are sharing
lunch at the White House
with an eye on overlapping
interests rather than the sharp
differences that defined their
presidential contest.
In their first meeting since
the election, Obama and the
Republican nominee are to
meet in the White Houses
private dining room today,
fulfilling a promise Obama
made in his victory speech
the night of Nov. 6.
White House spokesman
Jay Carney said Obama had
no specific agenda for the
meeting, but he said the presi-
dent would like to discuss
Romneys ideas for making
government more efficient.
Obama has proposed merging
some functions of government
related to business and has
asked Congress for authority
to undertake some executive
branch reorganization.
The president noted that
Gov. Romney did a terrific
job running the Olympics and
that that skills set lends itself
to ideas that could make the
federal government work bet-
ter, which is a passion of the
presidents, Carney said.
Obama aides said they
reached out to Romneys team
shortly before Thanksgiving
to start working on a date
for the meeting. The two
men will meet alone in the
White Houses private dining
room, with no press coverage
expected.
While in Washington,
Romney will also meet with
his former running mate,
Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan,
according to a Romney cam-
paign aide. Ryan is back
on Capitol Hill, where hes
involved in negotiations to
avert a series of automatic
tax increases and deep spend-
ing cuts that have come to be
known as the fiscal cliff.
Much of that debate cen-
ters on expiring tax cuts first
enacted in the George W. Bush
administration. Obama and
Romney differed sharply dur-
ing the campaign over what
to do with the cuts, with the
Republican pushing for them
to be extended for all income
earners and the president run-
ning on a pledge to let the
cuts expire for families making
more than $250,000 a year.
The White House sees
Obamas victory as a signal
that Americans support his
tax proposals.
Obama and Romneys sit-
down today was expected to
be their most extensive pri-
vate meeting to date. The
two men had only a handful
of brief exchanges before the
2012 election.
Even after their political
fates became intertwined,
their interactions were largely
confined to the three presi-
dential debates.
Romney has virtually dis-
appeared from politics fol-
lowing his election loss. Hes
spent the past three weeks
largely in seclusion at his
familys Southern California
home. He has made no public
appearances, drawing media
attention only after being
photographed at Disneyland
in addition to stops at the
movies and the gym with his
wife, Ann.

DURHAM, N.C. No.
4 Ohio State looked plen-
ty capable of accomplish-
ing something no non-ACC
team could do in more than
a decade: Beat Duke on its
home court.
Then, all of a sudden,
things went wrong for the
Buckeyes.
An untimely
cold spell and
an inability to
stop No. 2 Duke
down the stretch
sent the Buckeyes
to a 73-68 loss
Wednesday night.
Deshaun Thomas scored 16
points to lead Ohio State (4-1)
and Aaron Craft scored 11 on
3-of-15 shooting. His jumper
with about 3:15 remaining
was the Buckeyes last until a
dunk by Evan Ravenel in the
final seconds.
Ohio State a 52-percent
shooting team hit just 33.8
percent from the field in this
one.
If you had told me we
were going to shoot 34 per-
cent, I would have said we got
ran out of the gym tonight,
coach Thad Matta said.
The Buckeyes also had no
way to slow Duke freshman
Rasheed Sulaimon in the sec-
ond half. He scored all 17 of
his points after halftime.
Mason Plumlee had 21
points and a career-high-
tying 17 rebounds and Ryan
Kelly added 15 points and
hit 3-pointers on consecutive
trips downcourt early during
the 20-7 run that put the Blue
Devils (7-0) ahead to stay and
sent them to their third win
over a top-5 team this month.
Shannon Scott pulled the
Buckeyes within 66-64 with a
free throw with 28.9 seconds
left but had a critical turnover
on the next trip down; Quinn
Cook sealed it by hitting six
free throws in the final 27.3
seconds.
Cook finished with 12
points for Duke, which shot
58 percent in the second half
Sulaimon was 7-of-10 in
the final 20 minutes to
remain unbeaten at home in
the made-for-TV ACC-Big
Ten Challenge and preserve
its school-record winning
streak at home against non-
conference opponents.
The Blue Devils who
beat then-No. 3 Kentucky
in Atlanta and then-No. 2
Louisville in the Bahamas
won their 97th straight against
non-ACC visitors to Cameron
Indoor Stadium.
But for much of the way,
nothing came easy for them.
They were outrebounded
40-37, couldnt get anything
going on the offensive glass,
struggled to keep up with
Ohio States quick ball move-
ment and couldnt find their
touch.
When you play the
schedule that weve played,
this is not Xbox or fantasy
stuff where these guys are
healthy all the time, Duke
coach Mike Krzyzewski said.
He just played three games
(in the Battle 4 Atlantis), get
back Sunday afternoon and
go out and play these guys
on Wednesday thats an
effort. Thats a hell of an
effort and for a freshman, he
got knocked back, and at half-
time, I thought he responded
... and gave us a verve.
Not to mention a spark, by
hitting the first in a series of
three straight 3-pointers that
swung the game.
Sulaimon buried one from
the key to pull the Blue Devils
within 51-50 with about 6 1/2
minutes left. Kelly then hit 3s
on consecutive trips down the
court, including one in Amir
Williams face that put Duke
ahead to stay, 56-53 its
first lead since the 14-minute
mark of the first half.
Plumlee followed up
Cooks missed layup with
a dunk that made it 58-54
with 4 minutes left and sent
the rowdy Cameron crowd
into ear-splitting madness.
Sulaimon capped the run with
a fast-break dunk that put
Duke up 66-58 with just over
a minute to play.
Lenzelle Smith Jr. had 11
points for Ohio State.
No. 9 ARIZONA 93, NORTHERN
ARIZONA 50
TUCSON, Ariz. Mark Lyons
scored 18 points and Nick
Johnson had 10 points
and seven assists for
Arizona.
The Wildcats (4-0)
overwhel med the
Lumberjacks from the
get-go, showing no signs
of rust after an 8-day
break. The Wildcats
built an 18-point lead
in the first half and shut
down Northern Arizona in the second
for their 29th straight win over the
Lumberjacks (2-4).
Arizona shot 58 percent, made
12-of-21 from 3-point range and had
22 assists on 30 field goals to kick
off a stretch of four games in 11
days. Solomon Hill had 17 points,
Brandon Ashley grabbed 11 rebounds
and Johnson added four steals for the
Wildcats.
Dewayne Russell had 13 points
and Blake Hamilton 11 for Northern
Arizona, winless in 24 all-time games
against ranked opponents.
BOISE ST. 83, No. 11 Creighton
70
OMAHA, Neb. Derrick Marks
scored a career-high 35 points, includ-
ing 18 straight in the second half, to
lead Boise State to the upset.
The Broncos (5-1) beat a ranked
opponent for the first time in four sea-
sons and beat one on the road for the
first time since March 2005. Creighton
(6-1) hadnt lost a regular-season
November home game since 1989.
Anthony Drmic had 17 points
and Jeff Elorriaga added 12 for the
Broncos.
Doug McDermott led Creighton
with 21 points.
Creighton got within five points
in the last 3 minutes of the game
but Drmic scored twice and Marks
made four free throws to seal the
Broncos first win over a ranked oppo-
nent since they beat Utah State in
February 2009.
The Broncos had come into the
game having lost 18 of 19 on the road
against ranked teams, with the lone
win against Nevada in March 2005.
Marks scored 28 points in the
second half.
MIAMI 67, No. 13 Michigan St.
59
CORAL GABLES, Fla. Senior
Trey McKinney Jones scored a
career-high 18 points and Miami held
Michigan State without a field goal for
a 5 1/2-minute stretch in the second
half.
McKinney Jones went 5-for-7 from
3-point range, including a basket that
capped a 14-2 run to start the second
half that put them ahead 41-33. The
lead grew to 57-45 and Miami (4-1)
went 8-for-8 from the free throw line
over the final 2:11 to seal the victory.
Keith Appling had 15 points for the
Spartans (5-2), who lost for the first
time since the season opener against
Connecticut.
No. 22 ILLINOIS 75, GEORGIA
TECH 62
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. Joseph
Bertrand made 3-pointers on consecu-
tive possessions and scored every
point in a 10-0 run for Illinois in the
ACC-Big Ten Challenge.
Illinois (8-0) took charge behind
Bertrand, who also scored on a drives
in the decisive surge to lift the Illini
from a 58-54 deficit late in the second
half.
The Illini finished the game on a
21-4 run.
Bertrand, a redshirt junior, scored
12 of his 15 points in the second half.
Brandon Paul also scored 15 points
for the Illini while forward Tyler Griffey
and guard D.J. Richardson had 14
points apiece.
Kammeon Holsey led Georgia
Tech (4-2) with 14 points while Jason
Morris and Mfon Udofia scored 10
points apiece.
No. 24 UNLV 85, UC IRVINE 57
LAS VEGAS Freshman Anthony
Bennett and junior Mike Moser scored
19 points apiece to lead UNLV.
Using tenacious defense, the
Rebels held UC Irvine scoreless dur-
ing a crucial 5 minutes of the second
half, long enough to widen their lead to
20 points and take the Anteaters out of
the game. UNLV outscored UC Irvine
51-31 in the second half to pull away
for the easy win.
Katin Reinhardt added 13 points
for the Rebels (4-1).
UC Irvine (3-4) scored just 21
points over the final 14:59 of the game
nine of which came from the free
throw line.

DEFIANCE The Defiance
College mens basketball team
extended its home winning streak
in non-conference action to 15-
traight and improved to 5-0 in
home openers under head coach
Kyle Brumett with a 76-60 vic-
tory against Alma on Wednesday
night inside the Karl H. Weaner
Community Center.
The Jackets used the long
ball to fuel the attack all night
long, connecting on 10-of-24 tries
from 3-point territory to keep the
Scots at bay. Back-to-back tri-
ples from Drew Frizell and Travis
Schomaeker opened up an early
21-14 lead for Defiance and it
would not look back, despite
Alma closing the half on a 10-2
spurt to draw to within 39-37.
DC wasted no time putting
the game away in the second
half, using a 15-0 rally out of
the intermission to break open
a 54-37 lead at the 14:00 mark.
Another trey from Frizell capped
the eventual 20-2 run to open
the half and pushed the Defiance
lead to 59-39.
The Jackets cruised from
there, never allowing Alma any
closer than 13 points the rest of
the evening and completing the
76-60 non-conference win.
Defiance complimented the
long-range assault with a 32-18
edge in the paint and a 40-37
advantage on the glass. The
Purple and Gold also flexed its
defensive muscle by limiting AC
to 24.0-percent shooting in the
second half and only 35.1 percent
in the game. DC notched seven
steals, while holding an opponent
under the 70-point barrier for the
third time in four outings this
season.
Ryan Hicks turned in another
stellar performance, recording his
third collegiate double-double by
hauling in 10 rebounds to go with
a career-high 20 points and three
steals.
Frizell joined Hicks by setting
his own personal best with 17
points on 5-of-9 shooting from
beyond the arc and Wade Wooley
turned in the finest showing of
his young collegiate career with
seven points and a career-high
11 boards.
Logan Wolfrum added 16
points to continue his climb up the
all-time scoring charts at Defiance
College, surpassing C.J. Johnson
(2004-08) and Nick Sales (2006-
10) and moving into 16th place in
DC history with 1,387 points.
Defiance (2-2) will look to
extend its current 2-game win-
ning streak when it opens the
Heartland Collegiate Athletic
Conference portion of its
schedule on Saturday at Rose-
Hulman.

The four Rs
By James J. Hoorman
assistant professor
OSU-Extension
The 4Rs concept is being
promoted by Ohio State
University extension and
other government agencies.
The concept means using
the right fertilizer source at
the right rate, right time and
the right place (Fertilizer
Institute). The goal is to keep
the nutrients on the land
and not in the air or water
while increasing agricultural
production and profitability.
That requires matching nutri-
ents applied with nutrients
taken up by the plants while
minimizing losses. For more
information on this concept,
visit the Fertilizer Institute
website at nutrientsteward-
ship.com.
Using the right fertilizer
rate starts with knowing your
crop nutrient requirements.
The right rate should be based
on soil and tissue tests taken
from an accredited labora-
tory and should be based on
Tri-state agronomic fertilizer
guidelines. Soil tests should
be taken a minimum of every
3-5 years. A study of agri-
cultural testing laboratories
found that while a majority
were testing and reporting
nutrient levels correctly; their
guidelines for the amount of
fertilizer to apply were vastly
different. So in many cases,
fertilizer was being recom-
mended when it was not
needed (Mullen and Dayton,
2011). Farmers need to keep
good fertilizer records to see
how their soil tests change
over time.
The right fertilizer source
means adjusting for the puri-
ty and the solubility of the
product. Many companies are
using products like Avail or
Jumpstart with P fertilizer.
These products increase the
solubility, making them more
plant-available but also easier
to lose. With fewer impu-
rities, the fertilizer nutrient
content increases. Plants
take up soluble nutrients but
unfortunately that increases
the chance of surface water
runoff.
Putting fertilizer in the
right place means either
injecting or incorporating the
fertilizer into the soil. If the
fertilizer is surface-applied, it
should be applied to a grow-
ing crop. This will require
some changes in the way it
is applied. Farmers typically
apply phosphorus (P) and
potassium (K) broadcast in
the fall before planting crops
in the spring. While some
starter fertilizer is applied on
corn in row in the spring, the
majority of P and K fertil-
izer is broadcast in the fall.
Current recommendations
are to either incorporate the
fertilizer or apply it to a live
crop like a cover crop to
minimize surface runoff.
Utilizing no-till and cover
crops will allow the fertilizer
to soak into the soil when it
rains or be absorbed before
runoff occurs.
Applying fertilizer at the
right time means not applying
fertilizer or manure to frozen
or snow-covered soil. The
recommendation is to apply
fertilizer or manure to grow-
ing crops or when the crops
will need the nutrients to min-
imize losses. Incorporating or
banding fertilizer at planting
time is the preferred meth-
od. Do not apply before a
projected heavy rainfall or
precipitation event like melt-
ing snow. Frozen and snow-
covered applications have
the greatest risk of off-site
movement whether manure
or commercial fertilizer
(LaBarge, 2012). About 90
percent of the nutrients are
lost each year during major
rainfall events (2 inch rains
or greater) or during snow
melt (Sharpley, 2012).
What other practices can
farmers do to minimize
P losses? Farmers should
continue to utilize proper
best management practices
like soil conservation. Avoid
plowing and tilling the soil
and utilize no-till or mini-
mum till with at least
30-percent residue cover.
Protecting the soil with resi-
due increases water infiltra-
tion and allows the nutrients
to contact the soil particles
where it may be absorbed
and available for plant
uptake. Using cover crops
will improve soil health and
nutrient retention and recy-
cling. Most major and minor
soil nutrients are tied up in
an organic form and are less
susceptible to runoff. Filter
strips, grass waterways,
buffers, and wetlands are
encouraged to treat and filter
out nutrients before it reach-
es our rivers and lakes.
Other practices that farm-
ers can adopt include repair-
ing and fixing broken tile
lines quickly before the soil
erodes and nutrients are lost.
Surface inlets should be pro-
tected with a plastic cover
to prevent surface runoff. A
majority of the nutrients are
in the top 1-2 inches of top-
soil. When the soil erodes,
the sediment that is lost is
composed of the richest soil,
the soil organic matter which
tends to float and to be eas-
ily transported to surface
water. Concentrated surface
runoff should be treated if
possible before entering a
stream. Nitrogen and phos-
phorus bioreactors situated in
tile outlets have been shown
to reduce nutrient losses
by 70-90 percent (Brown,
2011). Controlled drainage
structures which hold back
the water during the winter
have shown similar results
(Brown, 2011).

NBA GLANCE
(Continued from Page 8)
Los Angeles welcomed
Chauncey Billups back to the lineup
for the first time this season.
Billups had seven points and
three assists in 19 minutes as the
Clippers ended a 4-game losing
streak. The 5-time All-Star, begin-
ning his 16th NBA season, was
sidelined for more than nine months
after tearing his left Achilles tendon
on Feb. 6 in a 107-102 victory at
Orlando. Blake Griffin had 18 points
and six rebounds.
Kevin Love had 19 points and
12 rebounds for Minnesota and
is averaging 23.0 points and 15.6
boards in five games since return-
ing from a broken right hand he
sustained in the preseason.
PISTONS 117, SUNS 77
AUBURN HILLS, Mich.
Brandon Knight and Charlie
Villanueva scored 19 points apiece
and Detroit routed Phoenix to win
back-to-back games for the first
time this season.
Detroit is 5-3 since opening 0-8.
The Pistons led 55-44 at halftime
and then broke the game open
when the Suns came unglued in
the third quarter. Phoenix picked
up four technical fouls in the third
and trailed by as many as 44 in
the fourth.
Rodney Stuckey added 18
points for Detroit. Kyle Singler and
Tayshaun Prince contributed 12
each.
Luis Scola scored 11 points for
the Suns.
HAWKS 94, BOBCATS 91
ATLANTA Al Horford scored
17 points and hit two clinching
free throws to help Atlanta beat
Charlotte for its sixth straight vic-
tory.
Josh Smith and Lou Williams
also had 17 points apiece for the
Hawks.
Ben Gordon finished with 26
points and Ramon Sessions had 18
to lead Charlotte.
Gordons straightaway 3-pointer
with 29.1 seconds remaining cut
Atlantas lead to 92-91. The Bobcats
got the ball back but Sessions
inbounds pass from the left side-
line was ruled a turnover after the
officials watched replays and con-
cluded neither Gordon nor Smith
touched the ball, which bounced
out of bounds on the other side of
the court with 5.2 seconds to go.
SPURS 110, MAGIC 89
ORLANDO, Fla. Manu
Ginobili had 20 points, Gary Neal
scored 19 and San Antonio raced
past Orlando for its fifth straight
win.
Tim Duncan added 15 points
in 27 minutes and Tony Parker
chipped in 14 points and eight
assists. The Spurs also posted
their eighth consecutive victory on
the road and have now beaten
the Magic in five of their last six
meetings.
Arron Afflalo led the Magic
with 16 points, followed by Jameer
Nelson with 14. The Magic struggled
from the field, connecting on just
two of their 15 3-point attempts.
JAZZ 96, HORNETS 84
NEW ORLEANS Al Jefferson
had 19 points, Marvin Williams
scored 16 before leaving with con-
cussion symptoms and Utah won
its second straight game by defeat-
ing New Orleans.
Paul Millsap scored nine of
his 16 points during a dominant
third quarter for Utah and Gordon
Hayward had 13 of his 15 points in
the fourth quarter to help the Jazz
overcome one last New Orleans
surge.
Robin Lopez and Greivis
Vasquez each scored 18 points for
New Orleans. Brian Roberts added
11 points but the Hornets struggled
from 3-point range, going 5-of-21.
Utah was a disciplined 6-of-11
from deep.

The Associated Press
GOLF
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif.
In a proposal that would affect
golfs major champions as well
as amateurs at local clubs, the
guardians of the 600-year-old
sport want to write a new rule
that would outlaw a putting stroke
they fear is taking too much skill
out of the game.
The U.S. Golf Association and
the Royal & Ancient Golf Club
announced they are not banning
the belly putter or the longer
broom-handle putters only
the way they are used. The pro-
posed rule would prohibit golfers
at all levels from anchoring a club
against their bodies while making
a stroke.
The rule would not take effect
until 2016.
PRO BASKETBALL
CHICAGO The short-
handed Dallas Mavericks will
sign 16-year veteran point guard
Derek Fisher today, coach Rick
Carlisle announced after teams
101-78 loss to Chicago.
The move is contingent on
Fisher passing a physical.
PRO FOOTBALL
SANTA CLARA, Calif. Colin
Kaepernick has earned himself a
third straight start at quarterback
for the San Francisco 49ers.
Coach Jim Harbaugh
made the announcement that
Kaepernick would go Sunday at
St. Louis over Alex Smith after
the second-year pro led the NFC
West-leading Niners (8-2-1) to
victories in the past two games,
his first two NFL starts.
Harbaugh is still leaving open
every possibility, saying it could
be a week-to-week decision.
ALLEN PARK, Mich.
Detroit Lions defensive tack-
le Ndamukong Suh was fined
$30,000 by the NFL but says
he didnt kick Houston Texans
quarterback Matt Schaub on
purpose.
Suh spoke to reporters for the
first time since his left cleat con-
nected with Schaubs groin area
in Detroits loss to Houston last
Thursday.
NEW YORK More NFL
players are testing positive for
amphetamines, a class of sub-
stances that includes the ADHD
drug Adderall.
Since the start of last season,
more than 10 players suspended
for failing drug tests have publicly
blamed it on taking the stimulant.
And while the league doesnt
identify the substance when a
player is penalized, senior vice
president Adolpho Birch acknowl-
edges that the number of posi-
tives for amphetamines has
increased.
Because the type of drug isnt
disclosed under the NFLs agree-
ment with the union, nothing pre-
vents a player from claiming he
took Adderall when, in fact, he
tested positive for a steroid or
another stimulant. The tests dont
differentiate between Adderall
and other amphetamines, Birch
added, but he does believe
Adderall abuse is on the rise in
the league.
COLLEGE FOOTBALL
Les Miles has a new 7-year
contract at LSU that also will
result in a pay raise for one of
the most successful coaches in
the history of the Tigers football
program.
The new contract runs through
2019, which amounts to a 2-year
extension. LSU athletic director
Joe Alleva said financial details
were still being worked out and
will be released after LSU plays
in a still-undecided bowl game to
close out this season.
A person familiar with the con-
tract told the Associated Press
that Miles new annual pay would
be in the range of $4.3 million, on
condition of anonymity because
financial details of Miles deal
were not released.
Miles previous contract paid
about $3.75 million annually
through 2017.
NEW HAVEN, Conn.
Kansas State QB Collin Klein,
Texas A&M QB Johnny Manziel
and Notre Dame LB Manti Teo
are among the five finalists for
the Walter Camp player of the
year award.
Oregon RB Kenjon Barner and
Southern California WR Marqise
Lee are the other finalists. The
award will be presented Dec. 6.
COLLEGES
The Atlantic Coast Conference
announced that its presidents and
chancellors unanimously voted to
add Louisville as the replacement
for Maryland.
ACC Commissioner John
Swofford said Louisville was the
best fit for the league following
Marylands announcement last
week that it would join the Big
Ten in 2014.

Almost everyone we know
has packed up and gone south
for the winter. The ones who
havent left yet will be gone
soon. Our friends who live
south of us are leaving to go
even farther south. I have
never been to Belize or Costa
Rica or the Cayman Islands,
but I constantly hear people
say they are going back for
the fourth or fifth time because
they liked it so much. They
also have much more money
and time.
Where did I go wrong?
Once again, I will probably
have to spend the whole winter
in my own house in my own
town. How is it that Sue and I
never spend the winter in Baja
California or Montserrat?
This year I am determined
to get out of town, if not for
the whole winter, at least for a
few weeks.
How about Mexico? I
asked Sue.
Fine, she said, if our
beheading is free. I dont want
to pay extra for that. Make sure
its part of our all-inclusive
vacation package. I forget:
How do you say, Please,
dont kill me, in Spanish? I
only took one year of it in high
school. Do you use the polite
form of you or the familiar?
If you dont want to go,
you could just say no like a
normal person, I said. Im
sure there are plenty of places
in Mexico that are just as safe
as it is here. Cancun, Cabo,
San Miguel de Allende ...
No doubt. Lets do it. Ive
been meaning to lose some
weight, and I hear amoebic
dysentery is just the thing
for that. The pounds just fall
away.
The Johnsons go to
Oaxaca, and they always have
a wonderful time.
Yes, they do. She told me
they never drink the water.
What do they drink?
Tequila. Its why they have
such a wonderful time. Theyre
stewed 24 hours a day.
OK, fine, I said. We
wont go to Mexico. What
about Greece? The islands
are nice and warm, full of
history.
Good idea! Are you sure
you can find us a hotel close
to a violent anti-government
demonstration? I hear theyre
very relaxing, like being at a
spa where they club you with
a thick stick. You book it while
I learn the words for tear gas
and Molotov cocktail.
How about a cruise? You
can drink the water, beheadings
are pretty rare and the food is
great. Theres dancing, live
shows, rock climbing ...
... seasickness, retching,
puking, dry heaves, she
finished.
We could go to one of those
towns that hate children.
Sue perked up. Dont toy
with me. Is there really such a
place?
Sure, hundreds of them.
What country do we have
to go to?
This one. Theyre all over
the U.S.
And people say we dont do
anything right in this country,
she said. Are you telling me
there are towns right here in
the USA with signs out front
that say, You have to be this
tall to live here?
No, because some of
the residents are actually
shrinking. Theyre for people
like us. No one under age 55
can live there.
Is that legal?
Sure. As long as they
keep out all children of all
races, religions and sexual
orientations.
Hows the beheading
situation?
Very rare. Most drug
kingpins dont live to be 55.
It does sound like a little bit
of heaven on Earth. Whats the
hitch?
You have to like living with
a bunch of old people.
I do that already. What else
you got?
I was running out of ideas.
We could go to a movie.
Didnt we go to one last
year?
I think it was two years
ago.
Whats playing?
The Beheading at 2, 4 and
6 oclock.
Nah, lets stay home. Well
do something next year.

Kim Kardashian divorce
inches toward trial
By ANTHONY
McCARTNEY
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES Kim
Kardashians divorce attor-
ney told a judge Wednesday
that the reality star wants to
move on with her life but is
handcuffed to her estranged
husband because the case is
not yet ready for trial.
Superior Court Judge
Stephen Moloney told attor-
neys for Kardashian and
NBA player Kris Humphries
to return to court in mid-
February to set a trial date to
either dissolve or annul the
couples 72-day marriage.
He didnt set a deadline
for depositions and other
pre-trial investigation to be
completed, but indicated a
trial could be held early next
year if it is ready by Feb.
15.
Humphries, a power for-
ward for the Brooklyn Nets,
is seeking an annulment based
on fraud, but his attorney says
he needs more time to col-
lect documents from compa-
nies that handle Kardashians
reality shows.
Kardashian is seeking a
traditional divorce and her
attorney Laura Wasser has
cited both the marriages
short duration and a prenup-
tial agreement as reasons
for why it should be quickly
resolved.
I dont think his client
has a fraud case, Wasser
said in court of Humphries
attorney. I think theres a
fishing expedition going on
here.
Humphries attorney
Marshall Waller said he need-
ed to be sure he had docu-
ments from E! Entertainment
and NBC Universal before
deciding the scope of his
case, but that he was narrow-
ing it down.
I do understand the desire
to get this case moved,
Waller said. Theres nothing
in particular about this case
that makes it more important
than anybody else.
Wasser however said that
unlike in a regular divorce
proceeding, Kardashian can-
not have her marriage dis-
solved and resolve other
issues later. Ms. Kardashian
is now handcuffed to Mr.
Humphries, she said.
Kardashian filed for divorce
more than a year ago, citing
irreconcilable differences just
weeks after the couples star-
studded and televised wed-
ding. Humphries later filed
for an annulment, claiming
the marriage was based on
fraud but he has yet to lay out
any specific evidence for his
claim.
Wasser says Kardashians
mother, Kris Jenner, and cur-
rent boyfriend, Kanye West,
have been deposed in the
case.
Kardashian, 32, has not
yet been deposed in the
case. She is the star of the
E! Entertainment Television
series Keeping Up with the
Kardashians.
Rapper PSY wants Tom Cruise
to go Gangnam Style
By JOCELYN GECKER
The Associated Press
BANGKOK The
South Korean rapper behind
YouTubes most-viewed
video ever has set what might
be a Mission: Impossible
for himself.
Asked which celebri-
ty he would like to see go
Gangnam Style, the singer
PSY told The Associated
Press: Tom Cruise!
Surrounded by screaming
fans, he then chuckled at the
idea of the American movie
star doing his now famous
horse-riding dance.
PSYs comments
Wednesday in Bangkok were
his first public remarks since
his viral smash video
with 842 million views and
counting surpassed Justin
Biebers Baby, which until
Saturday held the record with
803 million views.
Its amazing, PSY told
a news conference, saying
he never set out to become
an international star. I made
this video just for Korea,
actually. And when I released
this song wow.
The video has spawned
hundreds of parodies and
tribute videos and earned him
a spotlight alongside a variety
of superstars.
Earlier this month,
Madonna invited PSY onstage
and they danced to his song at
one of her New York City
concerts. MC Hammer intro-
duced the Korean star at the
American Music Awards as,
My Homeboy PSY!
Even President Barack
Obama is talking about
him. Asked on Election Day
if he could do the dance,
Obama replied: I think I
can do that move, but then
concluded he might do it
privately for Michelle, the
first lady.
PSY was in Thailand to
give a free concert Wednesday
night organized as a trib-
ute to the countrys revered
King Bhumibol Adulyadej,
who turns 85 next month. He
paid respects to the king at a
Bangkok shopping mall, sign-
ing his name in an autograph
book placed beside a giant
poster of the king. He then
gave an outdoor news confer-
ence, as screaming fans per-
formed the Gangnam Style
dance.
Determined not to be a
one-hit wonder, PSY said he
plans to release a worldwide
album in March with dance
moves that he thinks his inter-
national fans will like.
I think I have plenty of
dance moves left, he said,
in his trademark sunglasses
and dark suit. But Im really
concerned about the (next)
music video.
How can I beat Gangnam
Style? he asked, smiling.
How can I beat 850 million
views?

Answer to Puzzle
Dear Sara: During the winter,
my carpet gives static shocks. Is
there any way to stop this? My
cat thanks you. -- Jill, New York
Dear Jill: To avoid static
electricity, you can add moisture
to the air by using a humidifier,
boiling water or simmering
potpourri on the stove. You
can also try bringing in some
houseplants, or spraying the
carpet with a 4-to-1 mixture of
water and fabric softener.
Dear Sara: My kids take off
their clothes in the bathroom
when they shower. Their dirty
clothes never make it to the
hamper in their bedroom. Im
tired of nagging every single day.
How do you get kids to put their
clothes into a hamper and not
leave them on the floor? -- Gina,
California
Dear Gina: If possible, put the
hamper in the bathroom or a more
accessible place. Otherwise,
try waiting to do their laundry
rather than gathering it off the
floor ASAP for them again and
again. Let it pile up. They need
a consequence for their actions,
and when they run out of nicely
laundered clothes, theyll catch
on quickly. Let them know if
they dont use the hamper, they
can wash their own clothes. I do
understand its often easier to
simply pick it up, but they wont
learn anything other than that you
would never let them go without
their favorite clean clothes.
You can also let kids know
that using a hamper is a family
rule that everyone follows, and
explain the reasons: It saves
laundry-sorting time, keeps
the house from looking messy
and helps them care for their
belongings. Reward them for
using the hamper. It doesnt
have to be anything big -- a
sticker, a fun treat, an extra story
at bedtime, etc. Occasionally,
they might still slip and need a
reminder, but do not allow them
to slip twice or they can end
up going right back to leaving
them on the floor all over again.
Hold them accountable for their
actions.

Ask Mr. Know-it-all
Wayne had a death-defying movie career
By Gary Clothier
Q: You have settled several
lunchroom discussions in the
past; now I have one for you.
How many onscreen deaths did
actor John Wayne endure? --
E.M., Millbrook, Ala.
A: Of the more than 200 films
he made, John Wayne dies in
only eight: Central Airport
(1933), Reap the Wild Wind
(1942), The Fighting Seabees
(1944), Wake of the Red Witch
(1948), Sands of Iwo Jima
(1949), The Alamo (1960),
The Cowboys (1972) and The
Shootist (1976). He is shown
dead at the beginning of The
Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
(1962); the movie is a flashback
of his life. His fate in The Sea
Chase (1955) is undetermined;
he may have died when his ship
sank, or he and Lana Turner may
have made it to shore.
Q: Although Im not a big fan
of The Rolling Stones, the song
Angie is one of my favorites.
Who is Angie? -- L.U., High
Springs, Fla.
A: First, let me tell you
about the song.
Written by Mick
Jagger and Keith
Richards, Angie
describes the end
of a romance.
Some say it is
about David
Bowies ex-wife
Angela Bowie,
who had an affair
with Jagger during
her marriage.
Jagger has said
that Richards
wrote the title of
the song and that
it was probably
named after his
daughter, Angela
Richards (1972-).
Angie features
prominently on the bands 1973
album, Goats Head Soup.
Q: Where is the oldest winery
in the United States? -- K.M.O.,
Miami Beach, Fla.
A: Although several wineries
lay claim to the title, it is generally
believed to be the Brotherhood
Winery in Washingtonville, N.Y.
Established in 1839, the winery
continued to operate during
Prohibition (1920-1933) by
producing sacramental wine for
the Catholic Church.
Q: More than 10 years ago,
I saw a movie starring Denzel
Washington and Ed Asner, I
think. Anyway, the name of
the movie was Its a Heart
Condition. Denzel dies, and Ed
gets his heart. No one can see
Denzel except the man who has
his heart. I found it amusing, but
no one seems to remember this
movie but me. Does the film still
exist? Ive searched everywhere.
Im beginning to think I dreamed
it all. -- M.A., Shillington, Pa.
A: Heart Condition (1990)
stars Denzel Washington as
sleazy but lovable ambulance-
chasing lawyer Napoleon Stone.
Bob Hoskins is also featured as
police sergeant Jack Moony, a
crazed and manic cop. After the
lawyer is gunned down, Moonys
out-of-control lifestyle catches up
with him, and he suffers a heart
attack. When Moony recovers in
the hospital, he discovers he has
Stones heart. Stone appears to
Moony and presses him to solve
his murder. Negatively received
by moviegoers and critics, the
film is available in both DVD
and VHS. You can check out
Amazon.com or other outlets.

Horoscope
By Bernice Bede Osol
Hubby needs
transparency from
cheating wife
Dear Annie: A few
months ago, I discovered
that my wife was having
an affair with her boss. She
works for a small company
that requires long hours and
some traveling.
When I confronted her,
she didnt deny it. When
I asked her why, she said
it was all the long hours,
traveling and a little drink-
ing that made it
happen. She took
full responsibili-
ty. She claims she
doesnt love him,
it was a mistake
and it will never
happen again.
I confronted
her boss, who is
also married with
grown kids and
gr a ndc hi l dr e n.
He, too, said it
was a mistake
and that in his 30
years in business, nothing
like that had ever happened
before. He said he loves
his wife and family and
feels terrible, and acknowl-
edged that sleeping with
an employee is unethical
and immoral. He insisted
he would do everything he
could to rebuild my trust.
I chose to forgive both of
them, but for months now I
have not been able to enjoy
my life. My wife continues
to work for this company,
and all the conditions that
existed before are still there.
My wife doesnt understand
why I am so suspicious or
why I dont want her to
travel with him. They both
reassure me that nothing is
going on, but its hard to
believe. They are constantly
on the phone, sending emails
or texting. She insists it is
all work related, but all of
her electronic devices have
codes, and she refuses to let
me see anything.
Am I being played for a
fool? Ive been in therapy
and will continue. While its
helping me deal with my
feelings and moods, the ther-
apist cant tell me whether
or not to stay with my wife.
What do you think? Need
Some Help, Please
Dear Need: Ideally, your
wife would quit her job or
at least refuse to travel with
this man. But if the job is a
necessity, she needs to be
completely transparent in all
dealings with her boss. You
should be able to look at her
text messages and emails
and even listen to her phone
conversations. If she insists
on keeping things from you,
it means she has something
to hide. Sorry.
Dear Annie: I am asex-
ual, which means I am not
interested in sex and am not
sexually attracted to men or
women.
I am tired of having to
explain myself to every-
one, tired of people judging
me and tired of defending
myself. Why does every-
one feel the need to tell
me its just a phase, or
that I am only trying to be
different? I am 22, and I
know who I am. Why cant
people accept me? Tired
in Maine
Dear Tired: You really
arent required to discuss
your sexual preferences
or feelings with
anyone. These
things are per-
sonal and dont
require justifica-
tion. Please con-
tact the Asexuality
Visibility and
Education Network
at asexuality.org
for support and
assistance.
Dear Annie:
May I say a few
things to Unhappy
Gr a n d mo t h e r ,
whose son died two months
ago and her daughter-in-law
is already dating?
The loss of a child is
very different from that of
a spouse. Many people get
involved in relationships
right away, and some remar-
ry within a year. For some
widows and widowers, it
is a need not to be alone.
Others marry again because
they want to recapture the
happiness they felt. Some
might remarry because a
child has so much grief that
they want to fill that space
and help the child heal.
I lost my husband when
our son was 3 years old and
started dating six months
later. Please dont allow
your grief to get in the way
of your daughter-in-laws

Dont let it upset you if it appears
that youre doing all the giving

eventual reversal, and youll end up
sitting pretty.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec.

could benefit group endeavors. Some
of your greatest successes are likely to
come from working on humanitarian
pursuits.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) --
A winning attitude will be reflected

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) --
Dont hesitate to adjust an agreement

ability to get along with everybody
is one of your greatest assets. It isnt
likely youll be bored with anyones
company during this present cycle.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Youre

NJ spruce lights up as Rockefeller Center tree
BY DEEPTI HAJELA
The Associated Press
NEW YORK An 80-foot Norway
spruce that made it through Superstorm Sandy
was transformed into a beacon of shimmer-
ing glory Wednesday when New York City
Mayor Michael Bloomberg and others turned
its lights on at Rockefeller Center.
Thousands of onlookers crowded behind
barricades on the streets that surrounded the
center during the traditional tree-lighting cer-
emony for the Christmas holiday season. A
video screen projected an image of the tree
for those who did not have a direct line of
sight.
It makes me want to sing and dance, said
Zuri Young, who came several hours early
with her boyfriend to watch the lighting for
the first time.
Ive heard a lot about it. I was kind of sick
of staying home and watching it on televi-
sion, the 19-year-old nursing student from
Queens said.
Illuminated by more than 30,000 lights,
the tree from the Mount Olive, N.J., home
of Joe Balku was topped by a Swarovski
star. The 10-ton tree had been at the home-
stead for years, measuring about 22-feet
tall in 1973 when Balku bought the house.
Wednesday, its girth reached about 50 feet
in diameter.
Its an experience that I cannot get back
home, said Freyja Shairp, a 22-year-old from
Sidney, Australia, who is working in the U.S.
temporarily. She said she hadnt planned to
come, but was in the neighborhood.
Standing next to her was Donna
DAgostino, 48, and her 17-year-old daugh-
ter. She said she lived in New York City her
whole life and decided this was the year she
was going to see the lighting.
Its a bucket list item, said DAgostino.
I think it starts the whole season.
Balku lost power and other trees during
the Oct. 29 storm at his residence about
an hour outside of Manhattan. The spruce
survived, and Erik Pauze, the head gardener
at Tishman Speyer, one of the owners of
Rockefeller Center, picked out the tree. He
said he found it by accident when he got lost
while returning to the city on a tree hunting
expedition.
It wasnt even on our list. It was a good
find, Pauze said.
Pauze said workers prepared for Superstorm
Sandy by bracing the tree with cables to secure
and protect it. It was moved in November.
Officials turned on the lights just before
9 p.m. Wednesday in the 80th annual cel-
ebration. Prior to that, the tree-lighting event
include performances from Rod Stewart,
CeeLo Green, Scotty McCreery, Il Volo,
Victoria Justice, Brooke White, Mariah
Carey, Trace Adkins and Tony Bennett, along
with appearances by Billy Crystal and Bette
Midler.
The tradition of a Christmas tree at
Rockefeller Center started in 1931, when
workers building the center put up the first
one. No tree was put up the following year,
and in 1933, the first tree-lighting ceremony
took place.
People will be able to view the tree until
Jan. 7. After its stint in the spotlight, it will be
turned into lumber for Habitat for Humanity.
Officer: Suicide led to wariness about Manning
NJ Gov. Christies focus:
Rebuilding, re-election
BY ANGELA DELLI SANTI
The Associated Press
MIDDLETOWN, N.J. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie
plans to spend the next year leading efforts to rebuild his home
state after Superstorm Sandy and running for re-election.
Christie announced his intention to seek a second term
Monday, after telling his campaign treasurer to file papers so
he can begin hiring campaign staff, selecting a headquarters and
raising money toward his re-election. A formal announcement is
expected in January.
It would be wrong for me to leave now. I dont want to leave
now, Christie, 50, said Monday. We have a job to do. That job
wont be finished by next year.
The public needs to know that Im in this for the long haul,
that the person who has helped to lead them through the initial
crisis wants to help lead them through the rebuilding and resto-
ration of our state, he said at a news briefing at a fire house in
Middletown, where he had come to thank first responders and
volunteers.
The gubernatorial election is a year from now. The governor
said he talked it over with his wife and four children, ages 9 to
19, over the weekend, and the decision that he should run was
unanimous.
So far, no one has stepped forward to challenge him as gover-
nor. Several Democrats, most prominently Newark Mayor Cory
Booker, have been thinking aloud about running for their partys
nomination. Christie said he hadnt spoken with Booker other
than by text in about 10 days and he didnt know the mayors
political intentions.
One recent public opinion poll ranked Booker as the Democrat
who could come closest to beating the Republican governor.
But a new poll released Tuesday shows six out of 10 regis-
tered voters now support a second term for Christie, up 15 points
since September.
The Rutgers-Eagleton poll also found the number of voters
opposed to Christies re-election declined from nearly half in
September to about a third now.
Christie wins every hypothetical head-to-head matchup mea-
sured in the poll, including against Booker, who the poll has
losing 34-53 percent with 13 percent choosing neither.
Christie carried the Democratic-leaning state by 86,000 votes
in 2009, an upset win over Democratic incumbent Jon Corzine.
Christie, who has become a national figure during his first
term, is riding an unprecedented wave of popularity because of
how he handled the storm, which he said Friday had caused more
than $29 billion in damage in New Jersey. Even Democrats have
applauded his hands-on response. He appeared on Saturday
Night Live in his trademark fleece pullover this month to lam-
poon his own nationally televised storm briefings.
About the only criticism directed his way since Superstorm
Sandy attacked the coast in late October has come from fellow
Republicans who have lambasted him for embracing President
Barack Obama as the two toured New Jerseys ravaged coast-
line six days before the presidential election. Some even blame
Christie for tipping a close election to the president.
Christie was the first governor to endorse Mitt Romney; he
raised $18.2 million for the GOP nominee and crisscrossed the
country as an in-demand surrogate for Republican candidates.
Some are still questioning his party loyalty, however, as they did
after Christie delivered the keynote address at the partys nomi-
nating convention in Tampa. Critics saw that August speech as
too much about Christie and not enough about Romney.

The Associated Press
FORT MEADE, Md. An Army pri-
vate accused of sending reams of classified
U.S. documents to the secret-spilling web-
site WikiLeaks was kept in tight pretrial
confinement partly because another pris-
oner had recently committed suicide, the
former security chief at the Quantico, Va.,
Marine Corps base testified Wednesday.
Marine Col. Robert Oltman appeared
as a witness on the second day of a pretrial
hearing for Pfc. Bradley Manning, who is
seeking dismissal of all charges, claim-
ing his confinement in the Quantico brig
amounted to illegal punishment.
Oltman and others have testified that
psychiatrists who examined Manning at
Quantico repeatedly recommended that his
conditions be eased. But Oltman, whose
command included the brig, said he was
skeptical about at least one of those rec-
ommendations because another detainee
had killed himself in December 2009 after
his custody status was reduced based upon
the advice of the same doctor, Navy Capt.
William Hocter, the psychiatrist assigned
to the brig.
He didnt have the strongest credibility
with me with regards to his recommenda-
tions, Oltman said under questioning by
civilian defense attorney David Coombs.
Oltman said repeatedly that he pre-
ferred to err on the side of caution on
Mannings confinement.
Manning was held at Quantico for nine
months, from July 2010 to April 2011,
when he was moved to Fort Leavenworth,
Kansas. Throughout his time at Quantico,
he was designated a maximum custody
detainee and considered at risk of either
suicide or harming himself or others. He
was locked up alone for at least 23 hours
a day, forced to sleep naked for several
nights and required to stand naked at atten-
tion one morning, his lawyers assert.
At Fort Leavenworth, Manning was
re-evaluated and given a medium-security
classification.
Oltman said he told Hocter in January
2011 that Manning would remain on pre-
vention of injury status unless senior
officers decided otherwise.
Oltman acknowledged he told Hocter:
Nothings going to change. He wont be
able to hurt himself. Hes not going to be
able to get away, and our way of ensuring
this is that he will remain on this status
indefinitely.
On cross-examination by prosecutor
Maj. Ashden Fein, Oltman said that nei-
ther he nor any senior officers ever made
decisions regarding Mannings custody
classification. Oltman said those decisions
were made by the brig commander, a
position that during Mannings confine-
ment was held by Chief Warrant Officer 4
James Averhart and then by Chief Warrant
Officer 2 Denise Barnes.
Hocter testified later in the day that he
considered Manning a suicide risk when
the soldier first arrived at Quantico from
Kuwait. Eight days later, seeing no sui-
cidal tendencies, Hocter recommended an
easing to prevention-of-injury status and
the brig commander agreed. The change
meant jailers would check on Manning
every 15 minutes instead of every five.
But for the next four months, nearly until
Hocter deployed to Afghanistan, jailers
rejected his weekly recommendations
for further easing Mannings restrictions,
Hocter said.
It was just clear to me they had made
up their minds on a certain course of
action and that my recommendations had
no impact, he said.
Hocter said the long period of solitary
confinement hurt Mannings physical and
mental health, making him more irritable
and anxious, and less cooperative.
One of the security measures was the
removal of Mannings underwear at night,
starting March 2, 2011, after he told a
guard that if he wanted to kill himself, he
could hang himself with the waistband.
Coombs suggested Manning was com-
menting on the absurdity of his situation.
Coombs produced an email in which
Quanticos chief legal officer at the time,
Lt. Col. Christopher Greer, made light of
the underwear episode with a Dr. Seuss
parody: I can wear them in a box. I can
wear them with a fox. I can wear them in
the day. I can wear them so I say. But I
cant wear them at night. My comments
gave the staff a fright, Coombs read.
Oltman acknowledged that he respond-
ed to the email with the signature, Sam I
am, another Dr. Seuss reference.
Was it funny to you that Pfc. Manning
was being stripped at night? Coombs
asked.
No, it was not, it was a very serious
issue, Oltman said.
At least a dozen supporters of the
24-year-old Army private attended the
second day of what is expected to be a
six-day hearing.
Manning faces possible life imprison-
ment if convicted of aiding the enemy,
the most serious of the 22 charges that he
faces.
He is accused of sending hundreds
of thousands of classified Iraq and
Afghanistan war logs and more than
250,000 diplomatic cables to WikiLeaks
while he was working as an intelligence
analyst in Baghdad in 2009 and 2010.
The materials Manning is suspected
of leaking include sensitive reports on
foreign governments and leaders and a
2007 video clip of a U.S. helicopter crew
gunning down 11 men later found to have
included a Reuters news photographer
and his driver. The video garnered world-
wide attention. The Pentagon concluded
the troops acted appropriately during the
attack, having mistaken the camera equip-
ment for weapons.

PITTSBURGH Add seven swans, six geese and five
golden rings to the list of Christmas gifts that cost more than
they did a year ago.
And if you get all 364 items repeated throughout The
Twelve Days of Christmas carol, youll pay 6.1 percent more
this year, according to the annual Christmas Price Index com-
piled by PNC Wealth Management.
That comes to $107,300.
The rise is larger than expected considering the modest
economic growth weve had, said Jim Dunigan, managing
executive of investments for PNC. He noted the governments
Consumer Price Index has risen just 2 percent in the 12 months
before September.
Thrifty shoppers may find some reasons for cheer. Six
items mentioned in the song havent gone up in price: maids-
a-milking, ladies dancing, lords-a-leaping, calling birds, turtle
doves and the partridge. The eight maids-a-milking still cost
just $58 because the minimum wage hasnt risen.
Twelve drummers drumming ($2,775.50) and eleven pip-
ers piping ($2,562) might also be considered relative bargains
compared to seven swans, which will set you back $7,000.
Nine ladies dancing will cost you $6,294.03.
Dunigan said the 2011 drought caused the prices of some
birds to soar, partly because of corn and other feed costs.
The geese were up 29.6 percent, and swans were up 11
percent, Dunigan said, adding that none of the gifts in the
song went down in price this year.
The price of a pear tree is $189.99, an 11.8 percent jump
from last years $169.99. Five gold rings jumped 16.3 percent
this year, to $750, and three French hens are now $165, instead
of $150.
The $15 partridge is the cheapest item, and swans the most
expensive, at $1,000 each.
Last-minute shoppers who turn to the Internet will pay a
bit more for the gifts. Buying one set of the core items in each
verse costs $24,431 in traditional stores this year, but $40,440
online. Part of that difference is the extra expense of shipping
live birds, Dunigan said, adding that Internet costs rose 1.5
percent compared to last year.
PNC Financial Services Group Inc. checks jewelry stores,
dance companies, pet stores and other sources to compile the
list. Some of its sources this year include the National Aviary
in Pittsburgh and the Philadelphia-based Pennsylvania Ballet
Company.

Fort Jennings eighth-grader
Conner Stechschultes inten-
tions of becoming a police
or sheriff patrol officer, with
a wife and one child, would
yield him a budget of $3,558.
This [Real Money, Real
World program] will be bene-
ficial when I am on my own,
Stechschulte reflected on the
experience. It will help me
budget my money.
The booths were structured
to encompass normal monthly
expenditures like clothing,
food, utilities and car owner-
ship. Depending on the size
of the family, it is estimated
that a husband and wife with
a budget of less than $44,500
per year will spend $70 a
month on clothing and $30-
$60 more if they have a child.
Purchasing a small car would
cost $495 per month and
includes fuel, maintenance
costs and insurance. Buying
a small pickup would cost
considerably more at $806 per
month. A family husband,
wife and young child own-
ing a home would have util-
ity bills running upwards of
$345 per month and grocery
expenses ranging from $500-
$580.
Putnam County Deputy
Sheriff Dave Roney was on
hand to patrol the booth activ-
ities.
Im here to ticket the
students when they purchase
an auto from a booth, forget
about buying insurance and
then drive away to another
booth. I pull them over, give
them a ticket and hope they
learn the importance of driv-
ing with insurance, Roney
said.
Pam Hickey, Family
Consumer Sciences teacher at
Ottoville Elementary, tries to
instill one of the most impor-
tant financial habits an indi-
vidual can practice.
The most important line
item of any budget is P.Y.F.
(Pay Yourself First), Hickey
spoke adamantly. I teach my
students to deposit 5 percent
of their income into savings
before any other expenses are
paid.
The curriculum is com-
prised of six lessons, includ-
ing How Occupation Affects
Income; Deductions-What
You See is Not What You Get;
How to Use Checking and
Savings Accounts; Making
Choices - Preparing for the
Simulation; Real Money, Real
World Simulation; and What
Did You Learn?
Throughout the duration of
the program, students assume
the role of a young adult who
is the sole income provider
for a family. They choose
an occupation and receive a
monthly salary where students
learn to subtract savings, taxes
and health insurance amounts
from their income. The amount
of money left over is what they
have to spend during the sim-
ulation activity. The simula-
tion involves community vol-
unteers who represent actual
businesses in the community.
These volunteers set up and
staff booths representing real-
life businesses. By visiting the
appropriate booths, students
spend their salaries on items
typically found in a monthly
budget including housing,
utilities, groceries, insurance,
childcare and transporta-
tion. Throughout the activity,
students keep track of their
finances and attempt to com-
plete the simulation with a
positive balance. During the
post-simulation lesson, stu-
dents reflect on their experi-
ence and what they learned by
completing a self-assessment.
Many Ohio students have
graduated without minimal
formal education in finance.
In 2009, the State Board of
Education approved the
requirements of Amended
Substitute House Bill 1 (Am.

the development of academic
content standards in financial
literacy and entrepreneur-
ship in grades 7-8. Amended

requires that schools begin
teaching economics and finan-
cial literacy to all high school
students before the Class of
2014 graduates.
