They check yourblood pressure. Theymeasure your heightand weight. They lis-ten to your heartbeat.They perform routineexams and some-times even prescribemedication. They arenurses and they areresponsible for manytasks in health care.Fortunately, thereare hundreds ofnurses of differenttypes.

Types of nurses inthe United States in-clude:

• Licensed practi-cal nurses. Nurses inthis group typicallyhave two years oftraining in nursingand have passedstate and nationalboards. Many workunder the supervi-sion of physicians inoffices, clinics andhospitals, while oth-ers work under the

supervision of regis-tered nurses in long-term care facilities.

• Registerednurses. Nurses inthis group usuallyhave a bachelor’s de-gree in nursing, plusmany hours of clini-cal experience. Theymay practice nursingor perform any num-ber of jobs from edu-cators, managers andexecutives to thera-pists, mentors and re-searchers in a varietyof settings.

• Advanced prac-tice nurses. Nurses inthis group have amaster’s degree orhigher in nursingand may have addi-tional certificates.They may practice ascertified nurse mid-wives, nurse practi-tioners, clinical nursespecialists or certi-fied registered nurseanesthetists.

• Doctorally pre-pared nurses. Nurses

in this group have aPh.D. or another doc-toral degree special-izing in research andclinical nursing.Some practice nurs-ing, while othersteach and do researchin the field of nurs-ing.

Although they arenot technically con-sidered nurses, thereare other groups inhealth care that workalongside nurses andcould be consideredpart of nursing.These include:

• Nursing assis-tants. Individuals inthis group may becertified and assistnurses in many waysfrom taking vitalsigns to providing hy-gienic care. Manywork in hospitals andlong-term care facili-ties.

• Orderlies. Indi-viduals in this groupoften help nursestransfer patients and

assist them withother duties.

• Technicians. In-dividuals in thisgroup often performduties typically as-sociated with nurs-ing, such as passingout medication ordrawing blood. Theymay work as certi-fied medicationaides, phlebotomytechnicians, surgicaltechnologists andmachine operators.

Individuals whowork in the field ofnursing play manydifferent roles.Whether a techni-cian or a registerednurse, all are impor-tant and make vitalcontributions tohealth care and tothe care of patientsin general. They areheroes to many.

This year’s theme for NationalNursingWeek is a continuation of thecampaign “Nursing: The Health of aNation”. Without nurses, we wouldsuffer through longer waits at ourpublicly funded health institutions,our elderly and bed-ridden would beforced to endure the agony of clinicwaiting rooms, and our children andteens would know a lot less about howto keep in good health.

Sponsored by the CanadianNurses Association, National NursingWeek is a celebration of those whowork in public health clinics, hospi-tals and clinics, and private andhome-care organizations. CNA president Judith Shamian says itis a time to “acknowledge and celebrate nursing — a profession inwhich going above and beyond is a daily occurrence.”

The CAN represents just over 145,000 registered nurses who

work on the front lines and behind thescenes. Not only do they assist physicians inadministering direct care, they work to edu-cate community members about hygiene,safe sex practices, disease control, and dis-ease prevention.They are the front-line caregivers in hospital emergency rooms,medicalclinics, learning institutions, and homes forthe elderly.

In many of Canada’s remote northerncommunities, often the only health carepractitioner who lives on-site and treats peo-ple is a registered nurse or nurse practi-tioner. These women and men are all-in-one:they deal with emergencies, take care of vac-cination programs, educate the public about

health and reproductive issues, and of course they often serve ascounsellor-friends to community members.

This year, let’s all find a way to recognize the nurses who workhard to make our healthcare system accessible and efficient.

The men and women who practise nursing are the front-linehealthcare providers in every community.

Nursing: The Health of a Nation

SEA banquet Tuesday

CLEVELAND (AP) —An appeals court thisweek has reversed a de-cision ordering FordMotor Co. to pay nearly$2 billion in damages tothousands of commercialtruck dealerships, send-ing the case back to thelower courts for a newtrial.The decision Thurs-

day by the 8th OhioCourt of Appeals over-turned last year’s rulingthat said the automakerhad violated dealeragreements and over-charged for commercialtrucks over an 11-year

period. It determinedthat a trial judge inCleveland had abusedhis discretion in exclud-ing possible evidence inFord’s favor.The appeals court

called the contract inquestion “ambiguous”and said it can be inter-preted in different ways.It said a jury, which orig-inally only heard certainarguments because somewere excluded, shouldhave heard all key argu-ments in the case.The appeals court also

ruled that CuyahogaCounty Common Pleas

Judge Peter Corriganerred in not allowingFord attorneys to chal-lenge expert testimonyfrom the plaintiffs whenit was determining dam-ages in the case.The class-action law-

suit, brought on byWest-gate Ford Truck Sales ofYoungstown in 2002, in-cluded dealers who pur-chased a series 600 truckor higher from Ford from1987 to 1997. The law-suit accused the au-tomaker of violating itscontract by failing to re-veal that price conces-sions were given to somedealers.The jury awarded

$4.5 million in damagesto Westgate, to whichabout $6.7 million in in-terest was added. TheDearborn, Mich.-basedFord later appealed.The $2 billion award,

which included a judg-ment of about $781 mil-lion and about $1.2billion in interest, cov-ered more than 3,000dealerships around thecountry and about474,000 trucks.Attorney James Lowe,

who represents some ofthe dealers, said he had-n’t seen the decision anddeclined to comment Fri-day.

KENT (AP) — Sevenpeople wounded by OhioNational Guard gunfireat Kent State University42 years ago Friday haverenewed an appeal for an-swers to lingering ques-tions, such as whether anorder to fire was given.“OurMay 4movement

for truth and justice hascontinued for 42 years,and we will not desistuntil truth about thisgovernment crime is ac-knowledged by our gov-ernment,” the group saidThursday on the eve ofthe anniversary of theshooting, which killedfour people and helpedgalvanize opposition tothe VietnamWar.The survivors are

launching a campaign topersuade state and fed-eral lawmakers and otherofficials to convene hear-ings to examine new evi-dence from the May 4,1970, shootings.“We have undeniable,

verifiable, digital, foren-sic, recorded evidenceproving a shouted mili-tary command endingwith the word ‘FIRE!’preceded the barrage of67 deadly gunshots firedby the Ohio NationalGuard on this campus,”the statement by sur-vivors said.Backers of a renewed

investigation said a 2010analysis of a recently en-hanced audio recording

concluded that someonemay have ordered troopsto prepare to fire duringthe campus protest. Butthe federal governmentsaid its reviewwas incon-clusive in determiningwhether the recordingprovided such evidence.Assistant Attorney

General Thomas Perezsaid last month on theissue of a command tofire that the govern-ment’s analyst showed“no military-like voicecommands to fire or oth-erwise were heard;rather,many of the wordsheard were probably ut-

tered by several differentindividuals located closerto the microphone.”The original reel-to-

reel audio recording wasmade by Terry Strubbe, astudent who placed a mi-crophone in a window sillof his dormitory overlook-ing the anti-war rally. Acopy of the audio tapewas found in a libraryarchive in 2007.The survivors asked

Gov. John Kasich andOhio Attorney GeneralMike DeWine to clear theway for an analysis of thetape by state crime labo-ratory investigators.

Men indicted in rape caseDAYTON (AP) — An

adoptive father who’sbeen accused of rapingthree boys in his carewas indicted along withanother man Friday onrape charges.The 39-year-old adop-

tive father from Troywas indicted by a Mont-gomery County grandjury on three counts ofrape of a child under 13and four counts of com-plicity to commit rape ofa child under 13. PatrickRieder, 31, of Dayton,was indicted on fourcounts of rape of a childunder 13.The adoptive father is

accused of bringing theboy to Rieder’s home,where both men engagedin sexual conduct withthe child, county prose-cutor Mat Heck Jr. said.The men were intro-

duced in a chat room andeventually agreed tomeet, Heck said.The Associated Press

is withholding the fa-ther’s name to protectthe child’s identity.All the counts carry a

possible penalty of 10years to life. Both menalso were indicted withsexually violent predatorspecifications that wouldmake the sentences 25years to life on eachcount if the men are con-victed.Rieder’s attorney did-

n’t immediately returncalls for comment Fri-day. Court records don’tlist an attorney for theadoptive father, who is inMiami County jailawaiting trial on 31counts of rape involvingthree boys in his care.The adoptive father

was indicted in March ina Miami County oncharges that he rapedthe three boys.A third man, 29-year-

old Jason Zwick, ofBeavercreek, was in-dicted in March inMiami County on threecounts of rape. Prosecu-tors say he raped a boyin meetings arrangedthrough the adoptive fa-ther.Both the adoptive fa-

ther and Zwick havepleaded not guilty to thecharges in MiamiCounty. Zwick’s lawyerhasn’t returned mes-sages for comment.Officials have said

that the Troy manadopted three children,including a 9-year-oldgirl, and was in theprocess of adopting afourth child.

Survivors want answersOhio court: Judge erred in$2B award against Ford

COLUMBUS (AP) —Five exotic animals areback on the eastern Ohiofarm where they livedmonths ago before theirowner abandoned themand released dozens ofother wild animals intothe rural community,then killed himself.The widow of Terry

Thompson picked up twoleopards, two primatesand a bear from theColumbus zoo on Fridayand returned them totheir former home inZanesville where 50 ani-mals — including blackbears, mountain lionsand Bengal tigers —were released Oct. 18.Authorities killed 48

of the animals, fearingfor the public’s safety.Two others were pre-sumed eaten by otheranimals. The survivinganimals were found incages and placed underquarantine at the zoo.Ohio’s agriculture direc-tor lifted the quarantineorder Monday, after testresults showed all fiveanimals were free ofdangerously contagiousor infectious diseases.Thompson’s suicide,

the animals’ release, andtheir killings led law-makers to re-examineOhio’s restrictions on ex-otic pets, which are con-sidered some of thenation’s weakest.Now that Marian

Thompson has retrievedthe animals, nothing inOhio law allows state of-ficials to check on theirwelfare or require im-provements to condi-tions in which they arekept. The state’s agricul-ture department says it

will be up to local au-thorities to be alert totheir caretaking.“Ohio has done every-

thing in its power tokeep local officials in-formed throughout thisprocess to ensure theyhad as much informa-tion as possible in ad-vance of this threatreturning to their back-yard,” said DavidDaniels, the state’s agri-culture director.Ohio lawmakers are

considering legislationthat would ban newownership of dangerousanimals — but grandfa-ther in owners such asThompson. The bill is ontrack to pass the Legis-lature this month.Should it become law,

Thompson would have toregister the animalswith the state, obtain li-ability insurance andpay permit fees of atleast $1,000 by 2014.She also would have topass a backgroundcheck, microchip the an-imals and meet strictnew caretaking stan-dards, including fencingrequirements.For now, Muskingum

County Sheriff MattLutz said there is notmuch local authoritiescan do as long as the an-imals are being cared forproperly. “At the firstcomplaint we have, we’llfollow up,” he said.Ron Welch, the

county’s assistant prose-cuting attorney, said hisoffice made several at-tempts to persuadeThompson’s attorney toallow an inspector, thesheriff and a humane of-ficer to see the cages at

the property before theanimals returned. Theywere denied.“We were very disap-

pointed with that be-cause we felt that wejust wanted at that pointto provide some sense ofsecurity to our citizensand our community thatthis was in fact a safeplace for these animalsto be kept,”Welch said.Thompson arrived at

a loading area at the zoomid-morning Friday,driving a pickup truckpulling a silver horsetrailer. The two leopardsgrowled as they wereloaded into crates in thetrailer. A forklift loadeda steel cage carrying thebear. Thompson put herhand on the metal cage,as if to comfort the ani-mal. In smaller carriers,the monkeys wereplaced inside the back-seat of the truck cab.Zoo staffers, including

veterinarians and keep-ers, helped with thetransfer. Two U.S. De-partment of Agricultureinspectors were also onhand.Thompson ignoredshouted questions fromnearby news reporters.Thompson previously

tried to get the animalsback from the zoo, but thequarantine prevented herfrom taking them.Her home in

Zanesville sits about aquarter-mile from arural road, surroundedby fields and pastureswhere horses graze. A“Welcome Back!” balloonwas tied to the mailbox,as her truck carrying theanimals made its waydown the property’s longlane.

Johnsonre-electedLONDON (AP) — Lon-

don’s rumpled, comic andoutspoken Boris Johnsonhas won a second term asmayor of the British capital,triumphing in a surpris-ingly close election that in-stalls the unvarnished andunpredictable Conservativeas host of the 2012Olympics.Johnson’s victory, in elec-

tion results confirmed lateFriday,was a bright spot ona rough day for his col-leagues in Prime MinisterDavid Cameron’s governingConservative Party, whotook a drubbing in localelections.Voters stripped both the

Conservatives and LiberalDemocrats — the juniorpartner in Britain’s coali-tion government — of hun-dreds of local authorityseats, punishing them forbiting austerity measuresand Britain’s stalled econ-omy.Known best for his shock

of blond hair, and some-times shocking outbursts,the 47-year-old Johnsonnarrowly beat out theLabour Party’s Ken Living-stone — his predecessor asmayor— for the privilege ofleading Britain’s capitalinto the global spotlightwhen the Summer Gamesbegin on July 27.In his victory speech,

Johnson thanked voters forgiving him a “new chance”and promised to continue“fighting for a good deal forLondoners.”

Men fareworse

CHICAGO (AP) — Menrarely get breast cancer, butthose who do often don’tsurvive as long as women,largely because they don’teven realize they can get itand are slow to recognizethe warning signs, re-searchers say.On average,womenwith

breast cancer lived twoyears longer than men inthe biggest study yet of thedisease in males.The study found that

men’s breast tumors werelarger at diagnosis, moreadvanced andmore likely tohave spread to other partsof the body. Men were alsodiagnosed later in life; inthe study, they were 63 onaverage, versus 59 forwomen.Many men have no idea

that they can get breastcancer, and some doctorsare in the dark, too, dis-missing symptoms thatwould be an automatic redflag in women, said studyleader Dr. Jon Greif, abreast cancer surgeon inOakland, Calif.The American Cancer

Society estimates 1 in 1,000men will get breast cancer,versus 1 in 8 women. Bycomparison, 1 in 6 men willget prostate cancer, themost common cancer inmen.

Snake blamedfor power

— Officials say a snakeslithered into anOklahomaCity electric substation andknocked out power to about10,000 customersovernight.OklahomaGas andElec-

tric Co. says the power out-age affected customers innorthwest Oklahoma Cityat about 2 a.m.Thursday.Aspokesman tells OklahomaCity television stationKWTV that workers founda snake in the transformerat the LoneOak substation.OG&E says power was

million jobs created. But hesaid: “We’ve got to do more.”The 8.1 percent unemploy-

ment rate is the lowest sinceJanuary 2009, the monthObama was sworn in.Still, the weak job growth

caused stocks to fall sharplyon Wall Street. The Standard& Poor’s 500 index lost 1.6percent and closed its worstweek of the year. The price ofoil fell more than 4 percent be-cause of fears of a slowingeconomy, which should meanlower gasoline prices soon.Some of the slower job

growth may be because an un-usually warm winter allowedconstruction firms and othercompanies to add workersahead of schedule in Januaryand February, effectivelystealing jobs from the spring.The weaker job growth in

March and April “looks likesome weather payback,” saidPaulAshworth, chief U.S. econ-omist at Capital Economics.

The balmy weather proba-bly exaggerated job growth inthe winter and makes it looksmall now, Ashworth said. Heexpects job creation to settleinto a lackluster range be-tween 175,000 and 200,000.The economy may not be

growing fast enough to pro-duce anything stronger. Econ-omists surveyed by TheAssociated Press expect theeconomy to grow 2.5 percentthis year. That is consistentwith monthly job growth ofonly about 135,000, accordingto calculations by Brad De-Long, an economist at theUniversity of California,Berkeley.That is barely enough to

keep up with populationgrowth not nearly enough torecover the jobs lost in theGreat Recession quickly. Atthis year’s pace, it will takeuntil May 2014 to restore em-ployment to its 2008 peak of138 million.

The United States has onlyrecovered 3.8 million, or 43percent, of the 8.8 million jobslost between the peak, in Feb-ruary 2008, and January2010.David Boyce, 30, is one of

those still looking for work.He lost his sales job two yearsago and ran out of unemploy-ment benefits in September.He and his wife, who is work-ing reduced hours as a nanny,are struggling to get by.“We lived off savings for a

while,” he said. “And nowwe’re living off ramen noodlesbasically.”April’s hiring slump was

broad. Only two of 10 largecategories tracked by the gov-ernment, retailers and profes-sional and business services,hired more workers in Aprilthan they did in March.The categories of manufac-

turing and education andhealth services added thefewest jobs in five months. Ho-

tels, restaurants and enter-tainment companies addedthe fewest in eight months.Friday’s report noted that

that the average hourly wagewent up one penny in April.Over the past year, averagepay has increased 1.8 percent,almost a full percentage pointshy of the inflation rate, whichmeans the average Americanisn’t keeping up with price in-creases.Even April’s bright spot,

the lower unemployment rate,fades on closer inspection.The government only

counts people as unemployedif they’re looking for work.And 340,000 Americansstopped looking and droppedout of the labor force in April,which is why the unemploy-ment rate fell slightly. Thedropouts mean just 63.6 per-cent of working-age Ameri-cans were working or lookingfor work, the lowest since1981.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) —Five priests will be perma-nently barred from ministryafter the Philadelphia arch-diocese substantiated allega-tions of sexual abuse orinappropriate conduct, aRoman Catholic archbishopsaid Friday.Three other suspended

priests will return to ministry,and another died during theinvestigation, ArchbishopCharles Chaput said.Another17 cases remain under review,he said.“When a child is harmed,

the church has failed. Whentrust is lost, the church hasfailed. When the whole com-munity suffers as a result, thechurch has failed,” Chaputsaid. “We can’t change thepast. But I pray — and I dobelieve — that the lessons ofthe last year have made ourChurch humbler, wiser, and amore vigilant guardian of ourpeople’s safety.”Four of the five cases sub-

stantiated were said to in-volve “boundary” or“behavioral” problems, notsexual assaults.Yet a lawyer for one ac-

cuser said one of those fourpriests had raped his client atSt.Timothy’s Parish rectory inPhiladelphia in the

early 1970s.“How do they define bound-

ary issues, if somebody re-ports, credibly, that he wassexually raped — both orallyand anally — as a 9-to-11-year-old?” said the man’slawyer, Daniel Monahan ofExton.The accuser, now in his 50s,

contacted the archdiocese in2006. He met last year withchurch investigators, a teamled by a former child sex-crimes prosecutor and retireddetective, and detailed his al-legations, Monahan said.The announcements came

as a former archdiocesan offi-

cial, MonsignorWilliam Lynn,stands trial on child-endan-germent and conspiracycharges. He faces up to 28years in prison if convicted ofhelping the church cover upabuse complaints as the sec-retary for clergy from 1992 to2004. Defense lawyers say hetook orders from the late Car-dinal Anthony Bevilacqua.None of the accused priests

whose fates were announcedFriday could be reached forcomment. Phone listings rangunanswered or had been dis-connected, and their formerparishes did not know theirwhereabouts.

9/11 trial returns to GitmoBY BEN FOX

GUANTANAMO BAYNAVAL BASE, Cuba (AP) —The man who once braggedabout planning Sept. 11 “fromA to Z” may mount a defenseafter all to charges that he or-chestrated the worst terror at-tack in U.S. history, withfamilies of the dead watchingintently from the U.S. onclosed-circuit TV.Khalid Sheikh Mohammed,

charged with four others withplanning and helping to carryout the 2001 terror attackthat sent hijacked jetlinersinto the World Trade Centerand Pentagon, will be ar-raigned Saturday at the U.S.military base in Cuba.Mohammed had previously

mocked the military tribunaland said he would welcomethe death penalty. His co-de-fendant, Ramzi Binalshibh,also told the court he wasproud of the attacks thatkilled nearly 3,000 people inNew York, Washington andShanksville, Pa.But “I don’t think anyone is

going to plead guilty,” said JimHarrington, Binalshibh’s civil-ian lawyer, who added the de-fendants are expected to fightthe charges against them,which include murder andterrorism and carry a poten-tial death penalty.Harrington declined to say

what would be the basis of his

defense and lawyers for Mo-hammed did not respond tomessages seeking comment.The men, held in a secret

prison in Guantanamo that isunder such tight security evenits exact location on the baseis classified, have not beenseen in public since a pretrialhearing the day after Obama’sJan. 21, 2009, inauguration.Their arraignment comes

more than three years afterthe Obama administration’sfailed effort to try the suspectsin a federal civilian court andclose the prison at the U.S.base in Cuba. Attorney Gen-eral Eric Holder announced in2009 that Mohammed and hiscodefendants would be triedblocks from the site of the de-stroyed trade center in down-townManhattan, but the planwas shelved after New Yorkofficials cited huge costs to se-cure the neighborhood andfamily opposition to trying thesuspects in the U.S.Six family members who

won a lottery to attend theproceedings will face Mo-hammed and the other men incourt; others were watchingon closed-circuit video at mil-itary bases in New York Cityand the eastern U.S.Cliff and Christina Russell

traveled from their RockawayBeach neighborhood in NewYork to honor the memory ofCliff ’s younger brother,Stephen, a firefighter killedresponding to the attacks.

Cliff Russell said he hopes thetribunal will end with thedeath penalty for Mohammedand his co-defendants.“I’m not looking forward to

ending someone else’s life andtaking satisfaction in it, but it’sthe most disgusting, hateful,awful thing I ever could thinkof if you think about what wasperpetrated,” he said.The men never entered for-

mal pleas in previous hear-ings, but Mohammed had toldthe court that he would con-fess to planning the attacksand hoped to be a “martyr.” Hedismissed the military justicesystem, saying, “After tortur-ing, they transferred us to in-quisition land inGuantanamo.”The arraignment is ex-

pected to be followed by ahearing on defense motionsthat challenge the chargesand extreme secrecy rules im-posed to prevent the release ofinformation about U.S. coun-terterrorism methods andstrategy.New rules adopted by Con-

gress and Obama forbid theuse of testimony obtainedthrough cruel treatment ortorture. The defendants wereheld at secret CIA prisonsoverseas where they weresubjected to what the govern-ment called “enhanced inter-rogation techniques.”Mohammed was water-boarded 183 times, officialshave said.

clash inCairo

BY MAGGIE MICHAELAssociated Press

CAIRO (AP) — Egyptiantroops blasted protesters withwater cannons, tear gas andlive ammunition, trying toprevent them from marchingon the Defense Ministry Fri-day in clashes that left onesoldier dead and scores of peo-ple injured just three weeksahead of presidential elec-tions.The fierce street battles

raised fears of a new cycle ofviolence surrounding the up-coming vote to replace HosniMubarak, who was oustedmore than a year ago. For thefirst time in Egypt’s chaotictransition, hard-line Is-lamists, rather than secularforces, were at the forefront ofthe confrontation with themilitary rulers who have beenaccused of trying to cling topower.The military council im-

posed an 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. cur-few on the area surroundingthe Defense Ministry, whichhas emerged as a flashpointfor the protesters’ anger afternine people were killed onWednesday in clashes be-tween unidentified assailantsand protesters who mainlycomprised supporters of a dis-qualified Islamist presidentialcandidate.The violence has thrown

the campaign for the May 23-24 elections into turmoil, withtwo front-runners and severalother candidates temporarilysuspending their campaignsto protest the military’s han-dling of the situation.

The Rainbow Garden-ers learned about plantfavorites and plantingtechniques during theirApril meeting recently.

Patt Van Skiver pro-vided the springarrangement of tulips,Gerber daisies, grapehyacinths, boxwood, anddaffodil foliage.

Janell Welker, clubmember and co-owner ofProgreen Nursery inBotkins, shared infor-mation on some of thenew perennials and an-nuals for 2012, as wellas some tried-and-truefavorites. Before plant-ing any annual in a con-tainer, hanging basket,or window box, she said,be sure to use pottingmix, not garden soil.Potting mixes arelighter and allow for bet-ter drainage. Some pot-ting mixes come withfertilizer mixed in.When using plain pot-ting mix, add fertilizer ifleaves start to lighten incolor.

To reduce damagedue to disease, fungus,or insects, Welker usesan organic Neem oilproduct. It acts as an in-secticide, fungicide andmiticide. Neem oil comesfrom the seeds of anevergreen tree and is ef-fective against biting,piercing and chewing in-sects. Butterflies, hum-mingbirds and bees cangather nectar, andpollen from plantssprayed with Neemwithout experiencingany harm. And goodbugs, such as ladybugsand praying mantises,can safely eat affectedinsect pests on plantssprayed with Neem.

When planting in thegarden or landscape, re-member to mulcharound, not on top of

plants, Welker said. Theidea is to conserve mois-ture and reduce weeds.

Putting mulch on thecrowns of plants or rightnext to stems andtrunks invites diseasesand provides a hidingplace for insects, de-pending on the type ofmulch used. Avoid usingnonorganic materialssuch as stones androcks, recycled rubber orplastic unless they’remade into steppingstones.

Hundreds of newplant varieties and hy-brids are introducedevery year by a muchsmaller number of majorplant growers andbreeders.

Proven Winners isone of the best known,she said, along withBall, Suntory, TerraNova, Monrovia, andDummen. These breed-ers produce nearly iden-tical plants withdifferent names, makingit difficult for gardenersto know how cultivarsdiffer from one another.

Welker recommendedchecking with a localgreenhouse or nurseryowner for the best infor-mation.

The Spring PlantSale Committee re-minded members to potplants they wish to do-nate for the May 26 saleon the court square. Thisis the opening day of theFarmer’s Market.Lavender-scented handlotion will be sold, alongwith a variety of annu-als, perennials, and gar-den accessories.

Members were toldthat the Rainbow Gar-deners web page hasbeen updated and isready for public viewing.Readers can access it atwww.ShelbySites.com/R

ainbowGardeners.Club members voted

to continue the ShelbyCounty Summer GardenAwards program for res-idential gardeners. Thecontest will take placeduring the last weekendin June.

Any noncommercialgardener can enterhis/her garden or aneighbor’s garden. Forinformation, email Rain-b o w G a r d e n [email protected].

The following horti-cultural tips were pro-vided:

• Cut an orange orgrapefruit in half andremove the edible citrus.Fill the shells with pot-ting mix and use themas containers to startseeds such as sunflower,cosmos, alyssum, dill,anise, daisies, fenneland coreopsis. Dill, aniseand fennel are espe-cially attractive to but-terflies and ladybugs.

• Block ants with cin-namon. Sprinkle wher-ever ants are located.Ants will not cross thecinnamon trail, and itmakes a room smellgood.

• Place a wren houseat least 50 feet awayfrom vegetables or fruittrees. Wrens enjoy eat-ing the fruits of yourlabor and are better sit-uated near conifers.

• Tie dryer sheetsaround selected hy-drangea branches torepel deer.

a novel way to have a“home” dryer like at thecarwash. However, man-ufacturers don’t recom-

mend this use for leafblowers. Try using a mi-crofiber cloth or chamoisto dry the car. You willuse fewer, comparedwith regular towels. —Heloise

PULLING WEEDSDear Heloise: When

pulling weeds, if youdon’t get all of the rootout, that weed will comeright back. After I pullout the weed, I spraysome weedkiller in thehole. This keeps me frompulling the same weedsover and over again. —

Jane from SpringBranch, TexasJane, a glug or two of

vinegar would work also!— Heloise

THE LAST LITTLEBIT

Dear Heloise: If I havea small amount of bath-room cleaner left in thespray bottle, I spray thetoilet-bowl brush andpour the residual cleanerinto the brush holder.I like using the fresh-

ened-up brush and thelast little bit of cleaner.— Rose M., via email

PIQUA — A free, one-hour educational semi-nar titled “Smart SocialSecurity Planning” willbe held May 15 and 17 atEdison Community Col-lege.The seminar is de-

signed for “babyboomers,” people whohave recently retired orwho are approaching re-tirement age, accordingto John Eikenberry ofEikenberry RetirementPlanning, one of the pre-senters.“We are holding this

free educational seminarbecause so many retireesand those nearing retire-ment age do not under-stand how their SocialSecurity benefits reallywork,” Eikenberry said.“And,most baby boomersdo not understand theoptions available tothem.”Eikenberry and Nick

Boeckman will be pre-senting the seminars.Both are trained in themost up-to-date SocialSecurity planning tech-niques and tools and arelicensed members of

Planmybenefit.com, aneducational programdedicated to providing itsmembers with the latestSocial Security planningtools.Eikenberry said the

majority of financial ad-visers do not understandhow Social Securityworks or how retirement-age men and womenneed to plan to be able tobest utilizea their SocialSecurity benefits.“Deciding when to

start taking Social Secu-rity benefits can have atremendous impact onthe amount of benefits anindividual receives dur-ing his/her lifetime,” hesaid. “One of the easiestways to understand yourretirement is to imagineit as a carton of eggs —

your nest eggs, so tospeak. Deciding how toarrange your nest eggs,and how to crack thosenest eggs in the mostbeneficial order, is whatwe are trying to teachbaby boomers.”As an example, Eiken-

berry said individualscould incur a penalty ofas much as 30 percent oftheir benefits if they starttaking them at age 62.“That’s one of the ben-

efits of this seminar,” hesaid. “We’re going to edu-cate folks about their op-tions and how thoseoptions can affect thempositively and nega-tively.”Eikenberry said other

information that will bepresented at the seminarincludes:• What the Social Se-

curity office doesn’t tellyou.• When it makes

sense to delay benefitsand when it does not.• Why checking your

earnings record for accu-racy is important.• How to coordinate

your benefits with those

of your spouse for maxi-mum potential.• Reducing or elimi-

nating taxes on your So-cial Security retirementbenefits.• Ways to integrate

your Social Security ben-efits with your overall re-tirement plan.He said the seminar

will also cover Social Se-curity basics and willalso reveal little-knownstrategies for maximiz-ing Social Security bene-fits.“If you are recently re-

tired or approaching re-tirement age,” he said,“attending this seminarwill be time well spent.”He stressed that the

seminar is free and noth-ing will be sold.The sem-inars will be held in theNorth Hall ConferenceCenter at Edison Com-munity College in Room057.Because there is lim-ited seating, Eikenberrysuggests people inter-ested in attending or whowould like additional in-formation to call toll-free(866) 945-3220 to reservea seat.

Everybody is convinced that the best mom in theworld is theirs. That’s probably whyMother’s Dayis celebrated in dozens of countries around theworld, although not always on the same date.

There’s nothing new about honouring a mother’sunique role within the family and society as awhole. Ancient Greeks were known to celebrateRhea, the mother of the Gods, and countless otherreligions have celebrated the fertility and nurtur-ing qualities of women.

The perpetuation of this tradition in North Amer-ica goes back to an American, Anna Jarvis, wholost her mother on the second Sunday of May,1906. She convinced the authorities in her smallVirginian town to mark Mother’s Day with a reli-gious ceremony the following year. The idea wasso popular that the entire state of Virginia beganan official celebration for mothers in 1907. A fewyears later, in 1914, U.S. PresidentWoodrowWil-son officially designated the second Sunday inMay as Mother’s Day.

Since then, many countries including Canada,Brazil, Italy, Japan, and Belgium have followed

this lead and made the second Sunday in May aday of flowers and words of love for moms.

Strangely enough, Mother’s Day is celebrated ona wide range of dates around the world. It’s cele-brated as early as February in Norway and as lateas December in Panama and Indonesia. Betweenthese two extremes, hardly a month goes by with-out some country honouring their mothers with aspecial day. One thing is certain though, no mat-ter the place or the date, mothers deserve to becelebrated!

Mother’s Day is celebrated on differentdates around the world.

Let her know howgrateful you are

Mothers give so much ofthemselves to their children,from the time they’re babies,through childhood and beyondthe trials of adolescence.That’s half a lifetime spentcaring for their children! Hon-oured since antiquity, mother-hood represents the source oflife and nurturing.

Why not make your cherishedmother’s greatest wish cometrue for Mother’s Day? If youand your sibling haven’t beenon speaking terms for months,if you’re annoyed with a fam-ily member over a trifle, whynot bury the hatchet, turn thepage, and try to get along foryour mother’s sake. A familyreconciliation might very wellbe the most wonderful gift shecould receive.

Perhaps you don’t demon-strate the love you feel foryour mother on a regular

basis. Mother’s Day is theideal moment to express thislove, with heartfelt wishes,gifts, or gestures that will gostraight to her heart. If youhave a limited budget, offerher some quality time, spenttogether doing an activity sheparticularly loves. Or help herout with some chores she findsdifficult. At the very least, apretty card in which you ex-press your wholehearted lovefor her will surely bring herjoy.

Another great idea is to de-velop the habit of expressingyour gratitude to your motherand spoiling her every chanceyou get. It will allow you tobuild a closer relationshipwith her, something that mightfeel great for both of you.Why wait for Mother’s Day toshow your affection to the onewho gave you life and to tellher how much you love her?

If you loveyour motherbut forget totell her on aregular basis,now is theperfect timeto tell herhow you feel.

Personalized gifts for mothersHere are some personality-based gift ideasthat are sure to please your mother no mat-ter what her style, interests, or age.

FOODIE MOMSWhy not an apron embroidered with herfirst name, a gourmet box of chocolates,or a fancy high-quality kitchen gadget? Ifyour budget is more ample, she wouldsurely love a gastronomic weekend away,with meals featuring local products and acouple of nights in a cozy inn.

TENDER-HEARTED MOMSOpt for a heart-shaped locket, a jewellerybox engraved with a loving message, or adigital photograph frame filled with familyphotos. Or how about a personalized novelin which she plays the heroine and re-counts her experiences as a young womanor as a mother.

ACTIVE MOMSIf she loves being active but is hesitant totreat herself, offer her some sports equip-ment that she wouldn’t splurge for her-self. Or make a gift of a short- orlong-term membership at the nearest gymor a few sessions with a personal trainer.

CURIOUS MOMSHow about a subscription to a newspaperor magazine, a tablet computer, orbooks about different travel desti-nations? You could also offer adaytrip to a museum or art galleryin a neighbouring town or city.

PAMPERED MOMSIf your mom loves feeling pam-pered, then a massage followed

by dip in a thermal spa is just thething. A box of different herbal teas orcoffees would also be well received, aswould bath products or a pair of ultra-comfortable slippers.

NOSTALGIC MOMSShe might adore a mixed CD or an e-tunes playlist with music from her youth.Or how about a vintage decorative item or,even better, an object dating from her yearof birth that a grandparent might havetucked away.

BBYY:: CCOOLLLLEEEENN KKIINNNNIINNGGEERRIf you have ever driven by Lehman during the month

of May, you have most likely seen the display of 3,600white crosses on the front lawn. These crosses arenot a mere decoration, but they represent the numberof babies who are aborted in the United States everysingle day.Back in 2009, the Pro-Lifeguards decided that they

wanted to show people driving by the school the seri-ousness of abortion. After a few months of collectingsupplies, painting, and building the crosses, thecrosses were ready to be set up by the road.The crosses serve as a public witness to all those

who travel by Lehman. They serve as a visual re-minder of the horrors of abortion that take place everysingle day. It is one thing to think of the number of liveslost every day, but to see the symbolic graveyardbrings the figure home.

Pro-Lifeguards Vice-President Emily Pax com-mented about the crosses, “They are a powerful wit-ness. They really speak to me at how many lives arelost by abortion every day and every year.”Every year since 2009, the Pro-Lifeguards have set

up the crosses during the month of May. This year, thecrosses will be set up May 5. As you drive by Lehmanduring May, remember that these crosses are not justa decoration, but a witness to the evilness of abortion.

Powerful Witness “Sharing the Limelight”BBYY:: JJUULLIIAA HHAARRRREELLSSOONNThe Lehman Music Department is offering an excit-

ing opportunity this year for students in grades 5through 8. On May 8, the students who registered willget to be “in the Limelight.” They will spend the entireday learning dances and songs, playing games, andmeeting members of the Lehman Show Choir (theLimelighters), and the Cavalier and Concert Choirs.That evening, they will perform with the Lehman choirstudents during a 7:00 p.m. concert. The day will start off at 3:30 with students checking

in and playing games. At 3:45, the dance clinic willstart. This will be led by Limelighter choreographersChad Hewitt (LHS ’06) and Libby Galbreath (LHS ’08).They will learn the lyrics and dances to two songs:“I’m a Believer” and “Life is a Highway.” From 5:45 toabout 6:30, the students will have time to eat pizza fordinner, hang out and meet new friends. Then at 7:00,the performance will begin.The Limelighters will start the show singing “Like a

Prayer.” Their other selections include “Popular,” “GuysSing Off,” “Firework,” and “Journey Medley.” The Cav-alier and Concert Choirs will sing “Come Sail Away”and “Fireflies.” All the Lehman choirs will join togetherto sing “Life is a Highway” and “I’m a Believer” with thegrade school students. Admission to the concert is free, so come and watch

future Cavaliers as they are “Put into the Limelight!”

The curious case ofPierce Bennett

BBYY:: MMEEGGHHAANN BBEENNNNEETTTTIt is not everyday that you would

find a young man wearing bootsand a belt buckle walking the hallsof Lehman, but junior Pierce Ben-nett doesn’t seem to mind theodds. The fact that he is carrying a tennis magazineunder his school books just adds to his overall unique-ness.

It is also very common to find Pierce popping intoclassrooms, even if the only reason is to say to SisterGinny, “How’s your day going, Sister?” The most im-portant thing about Pierce is that his smile, along withhis never ending jokes and fun-loving attitude, canlight up an entire classroom of students.Growing up on a farm has given Pierce many expe-

riences throughout his life. He and his family raisemarket lambs every year through the 4-H program.He has also won awards at the Ohio State Fair for hiswork in natural resources. The outdoors is where youwill most likely find him on a daily basis. Let’s just saythose boots and that belt buckle definitely define hisoverall character. Because of his interest in the outdoors, it is only fit-

ting that Pierce plays a sport that puts him outside allthe time. That’s right, this cowboy has a passion fortennis. Pierce has been a district qualifier two years ina row and is currently playing first singles for theLehman Cavs this spring. Pierce is involved in several clubs and activities. He

has participated on the state-qualifying ScienceOlympiad team, as well as being a four year memberof the Envirothon team. Pierce also works as a pre-senter for the Ohio Energy Project and is a LehmanAmbassador. Pierce’s classmates are quick to agree that Pierce

is definitely a keeper. Senior Kandis Sargeant com-mented, “Pierce is one of kind. He’s the little brotherI’ve always wanted. He is quick to make a joke aboutyou, but in the end he has always got your back.” Sen-ior Daniel Sehlhorst also is quick to chime in, “Pierceis a great friend and loyal teammate. You can alwayscount on him - accent, belt buckle, boots, and all - tobe there for you or give you a good laugh.” Writing this article is extra special for me because I

have the honor of calling Pierce my brother. Let mejust say I couldn’t ask for a better one! Thanks forbeing a great addition to Lehman and our family!

Not so new facesBBYY:: MMAADDIILLYYNN BBRROOWWNNOver this school year, the newest faculty members have made their places in the Lehman community. These

four staff members teach a range of classes. We have enjoyed their additions to Lehman, but how did they liketheir year?Mrs. Baker, who teaches five classes a day with four different subjects (Environmental Science, Chemistry,

AP Biology, and Integrated Science) said she is “blessed to have this job.” Although she has a very busy day,she has enjoyed helping the students. “College doesn’t prepare you for all the work a teacher does,” she said. “This year was different than previous teaching,” said the creative art teacher, Mrs. Grant. “The students are

very easy to work with.” That probably comes in handy for a teacher who teaches six different subjects duringthe day (Fundamentals, Art History 1 and 2, Ceramics, Studio Art, and Drawing and Painting). She is also theArt Department Chair. “Not one part of this year was boring.” Surely, her students feel the same way.Another first year faculty member at Lehman is Mr. Normile. You may know him from sitting in one of his many

social studies classes. He teaches Geography, U.S. History, and U.S Government, but his favorite subject toteach has been Government. “Lehman has exceeded my expectations,” he said.

Mrs. Jenkinson who teaches three music classes and also helps out with the band. “I was wary about get-ting this job, but since I am a Lehman alumna, I thought I had a good chance,” she said. She has really enjoyedbeing in the choir program again, since she was very involved in it when she attended Lehman. “I have lovedwatching the kids pick out different music, and the kids have definitely progressed in their abilities.”Although some consider these faculty members to still be “new,” they have already had a long busy year. They

have had a very good impact on the Lehman students and community.

The SHS Marching Band left for Disney World WednesdayApril 18th to march in a parade at Epcot. The trip to Disney was 20hours there and back by bus. While at Disney, the band had the op-portunity to not only visit the parks and march in a parade, but alsotake part in a work shop with a professional Disney musician. This tripis nothing less than an experience of a life time.

Thursday, the first day in Florida, the band visited Disney’sAnimal Kingdom. From 11am-7pm they had the chance to explore thepark and see all the big attractions. After a decent night’s sleep in acomfortable bed, they woke up the next morning to begin their event-ful day in a Disney music workshop.

The workshop was directed by a Disney performer namedChad. Chad played in all the parks and even on some of the Disneymovies, while also being a local college professor. He taught the bandmany valuable tools to better themselves and their band as a whole.They played songs from many different Disney movies including: “Yo-ho” from Pirates of the Caribbean, “Poor Unfortunate Souls” fromThe Little Mermaid, “Trashin’ the Camp” from Tarzan; accompaniedby Chad, and their feature song “A Whole New World” from Aladdin.The band accompanied the motion picture Aladdin with the song “A Whole New World”. When it was all recorded and put together they had the chance to watch the film and lis-ten to all the songs they had played.

The part of Disney that puts on the workshops was gave the band a copy of the dvd, commemorative draw string bags, and even inducted them into an organization byDisney called Ears for the Arts. They also presented the Director Mr. Chris Adams with a trophy signifying their experience and accomplishments at Disney World.

When the workshop was over the band spent the rest of the day at Magic Kingdom from noon until 10pm. They even got the chance to see the night parade and the laserlight and fireworks show before leaving that night.

Early Saturday morning the big day had finally arrived. The band had to be in block by 10 am, the parade started at 10:30 am. They started out at the U.K in Epcot and cir-cled around to end in Canada. When the Parade was over their final day at Disney World was spent at Epcot taking in the last bits of Disney magic that they could before leavingthat night.

The bus arrived back at the high school at 2:30 pm Sunday afternoon. As the members unloaded the bus and greeted their parents, a sense of sadness was felt by some. Theband became a true family on the trip sharing laughs, memories, and an experience that they will never forget.

Hearing aids not linked to brain cancer

Artist can achieve dream but must find a job

DEAR DR.DONOHUE: Afew months agowhile watchingTV, I heard thatcellphones couldpossibly causebrain tumors.I wear one

hearing aid.Every so often, Inotice pimplesbreaking out onthe outside of theear with the aid.S o m e t i m e sthey’re behind the ear.They either itch or aresore.When this happens,I use witch hazel, whichhelps for a couple ofweeks. They heal anddisappear. Does myhearing aid also causebrain tumors? —W.D.

ANSWER: The num-

ber of peopleusing hearingaids is large, andthe number ofyears that thesedevices havebeen used is long.I have not seen asingle reportthat hearing aidsare linked tobrain tumors. Idon’t knowwhat’s causingthe ear rash. Youhave to let a doc-

tor examine the out-break.The cellphone issue is

a different matter. Cell-phones have been in cir-culation from themid-1980s. Since the be-ginning of the 21st cen-tury, their use hasbecome widespread. It

almost seems that somepeople have one graftedto their ear. The brain-tumor link to cellphonesis something that peri-odically surfaces. Abouta year ago, the Interna-tional Agency for Re-search in Cancer, a partof the World Health Or-ganization, reviewedthe evidence and sug-gested that the electro-magnetic fieldsgenerated by cellphonesmight be a possible fac-tor in producing braintumors.I’m not sure what

that means. It seems tome that with such wide-spread use of cellphonesand with no great in-crease in brain tumors,the possibility is not abig threat.

DEAR DR. DONO-HUE: When you com-ment on cholesteroltreatments, please men-tion gemfibrozil. It’scheap, effective and hasnot caused any side ef-fects for me. — V.S.

ANSWER: Gemfi-brozil is the genericname for Lopid. It is use-ful for lowering triglyc-erides and cholesterol.Triglycerides are fats inthe blood that work withcholesterol in cloggingblood flow through arter-ies. This medicine in-creases good cholesterol(HDL cholesterol) andlowers bad cholesterol(LDL cholesterol).Gemfibrozil can cause

muscle pain. I’m glad it’sbeen such a success foryou.

DEAR ABBY:I’m an artist andbudding film-maker with aB.A. degree. Myproblems are myjob situation andwhere I live.My dad has

told me that —like him and hisfather — mybrother and Ishare a similarproblem. We all havetrouble getting andkeeping jobs. We neverseem to get ahead or becontent or comfortable.On my mother’s side,however, she, her father,her brother and mycousin all have heldsteady jobs.Why is that?As an artist, I feel I

don’t really fit into anyjob description. Momwould like me to workfor the federal govern-ment like she does, but Idon’t want to. I have hadpeople let me down thepast few years, and Ihave fought depressionand personal attacksfrom friends and class-mates who all told me to

give up and get a“real” job. Itmakes me evenmore determinedto realize mydream, but it’sgetting harder.Can you adviseme? — SWIM-M I N GAGAINST THECURRENT

D E A RS W I M M I N G :

I’ll try.Most people workso they can have food ontheir table and a roofover their heads. Theirjobs serve a purpose. Iagree with your motherthat you should have one— but I wouldn’t pre-sume to dictate whatkind.For your father to

imply that you will neverget or be able to hold apermanent job is wrongand unfair to you, and Iurge you not to fall intothat kind of self-fulfillingrut. You can hold a joband pursue your art andfilmmaking on your owntime, although your suc-cess may take longerthan you would other-

wise like. Many othershave done it, and so canyou. For inspiration, talkto your mother’s side ofthe family. You sharetheir genes, too.

DEAR ABBY: I livein a different state fromthe one where I grew up.Twice a week I call myelderly parents to touchbase. While I enjoyspeaking with Dad, mymother turns these callsinto a trial.Conversations with

her are one-sided. Sherarely asks me how I’mdoing, and when I tellher things, she ignoresor quickly glosses overmy news and redirectsthe subject to herself.She rambles on abouttrivial events in her life,barely acknowledgingme on the other end ofthe line.Some days I am pa-

tient and tolerate it. Onothers, my fuse isshorter and I ask her tofocus more on convers-ing with me, which of-fends her, and sheaccuses me of

being rude.I am an interesting,

successful man who isfrustrated my mothercan’t connect with memore meaningfully. Idon’t see my parentsoften and would like tobe part of their lives.Mom is not by nature agenerous person, but thetelephone seems to mag-nify her self-absorptionand lack of curiosity. Doyou have any thoughtson how to handle her? —LISTENING BUT NOTHEARD

DEAR LISTENING:Yes. It appears that youare seeking validationfrom your mother thatyou may have never re-ceived from her. It’s re-grettable, but at herstage of life, you are notgoing to change her. Shemay be rambling be-cause few people arewilling to tolerate herself-centeredness. Onthe days you are feelingmore patient, let herramble on; on those thatyou don’t feel that way,keep the conversationupbeat but brief.

REPLAY

50 years agoMay 5, 1962

Ivan Grilliot may have a bigoutdoor rifle season, if his per-fect firing at the Valley CityClub’s range is any indication.The Versailles Auto Parts spe-cialist scored a 200 with 17 X’sfrom the 50-yard line and an-other 200 with 16 X’s, at 100yards — all on prone firing.

25 years agoMay 5, 1987

Lehman needed a win to setup a showdown with Ver-sailles for the SouthwesternRivers Conference champi-onship, and coach SteveHunsucker was taking nochances, sending his ace left-hander Tom Froning to themound. Froning, just a soph-omore, and the area’s toppitcher with a 7-1 record, wasmore than up to the task ashe fired BBs at Tipp City,recording a no-hitter.

COLLEGE UPDATE

NEW YORK (AP) —For 15 years, MarianoRivera has decided whenthe game ends.Even with a freakish

injury that has likelyended his season, he ispromising to close outhis remarkable career onhis own terms and vowsto return no later thannext spring.Rivera confounded

batters with a cut fast-ball that changed direc-tion as it neared homeplate, shattered bats bythe hundreds and senthitters back to thedugout muttering. In histime in New York, theYankees added fiveWorld Series champi-onships to their recordtotal.He’s not ready to

leave just yet.In a sport filled with

debate, there is little ar-gument that Rivera isthe standard that all fu-ture relief pitchers willmeasure themselvesagainst.“I wouldn’t compare

him with any starter, butI think by acclimationhe’s the greatestcloser/relief pitcher inbaseball history,” broad-caster Bob Costas saidFriday.While shagging flies

in batting practice beforethe game Thursdayevening in Kansas City,the 42-year-old pitchercaught his foot on theedge of the warningtrack and his right kneebuckled. He was liftedonto a cart and driven offthe field that he so dom-inated.Likely sidelined for the

rest of a season by a tornanterior cruciate liga-ment and meniscus dam-age, Rivera needed lessthan 24 hours tomake hisdecision.He had hinted atthe start of spring train-ing this was going to behis final year, but on Fri-day he made clear his in-tent to return 2013.“I’m coming back,” he

said. “Write it down inbig letters.”

BEL-MAR HONOR ROLL

CHARLOTTE, N.C.(AP) — A lost ball didn’tcost Tiger Woods at theWells Fargo Champi-onship. A lost game did.Coming off his worst

performance as a pro atthe Masters, Woods did-n’t make a birdie on anyof the par 5s on anotherday of low scoring andwound up with a 1-over73 to miss the cut foronly the eighth time inhis career.“This is one of my fa-

vorite tour stops, and un-fortunately, I’m just notgoing to be around forthe last two days,”Woodssaid Friday.With swirling wind in

the afternoon, Quail Hol-low became tougher andthere was an outsidechance Woods could fin-ish among the top 70.Buthe knew the score longbefore the second roundended. He was at even-par 144, and that was notgoing to be good enough.Seventy-four players

made the cut at 1-under143, the first time in 10years of this tournamentthat the cutwasunderpar.It was the first Woods

missed the cut twice atthe same event. Woodsfailed to qualify for theweekend at Quail Hol-low in 2010 when he hadjust returned from thescandal in his personallife and his game was indisarray.It didn’t look much

better on a course wherehe won in 2007.Woods kept throwing

away shots with ahooked iron off the tee atthe 12th, a three-putt onthe 13th, a weak chip onthe 18th.Woods, as he did at the

Masters, attributed it tohis old swing underHankHaney. In an answer thatwas difficult to follow, hesaid he hits the ball bet-ter when he feels uncom-fortable over the ball.Part of that is because heis still learning a new

swing under Sean Foley.“It just that I get out

there and I want to getcomfortable, and I followmy old stuff,” he said.“And I hit it awful. Allthe shots I got uncom-fortable on, I just said,‘I’m going to get reallyuncomfortable and makeit feel as bad as it possi-bly could,’ I striped it. Iknow what I need to do.It’s just I need more repsdoing it.”His worst shot of the

day led to somethingeven stranger thanWoods leaving a tourna-ment on Friday.He never found his

ball and wasn’t penal-ized.Going for the green on

the par-5 fifth, Woodshooked his approachsome 30 yards left of thegreen and over thegallery. There was a madscramble by the galleryto get to the ball, butwhenWoods arrived, theball couldn’t be found.

Borchers receives ‘A+’ onhis 35 years in education

BY LORI OSTERLOHHAGAMAN

NEW BREMEN —Thirty-five years agoF r a n kBorchersbegan hiscareer ine d u c a -tion. As agraduateof Ver-s a i l l e sH i g hSchool, hes t ud i e deducation atWright StateUniversity. This under-graduate work landedhim a post with the Sid-ney City Schools to teachmath and science atBridgeview MiddleSchool. It was here thatBorchers also coachedbasketball and track.During his four years

at Bridgeview, Borchersearned his master’s de-gree in educational ad-ministration from theUniversity of Dayton.Upon completion of thisprogramhe transferred toSidney High School toteach earth science.Borchers explained,

“Fellow science teacherJimAnthony and I taughtall the earth scienceclasses, a required course,in a manner that allowedus to have all the fresh-man at some point in theschool year. The arrange-ment helped keep theclass fresh for both thestudents and the teach-ers. It also provided methe opportunity to get toknow every student in theschool, which proved

valuable to me when Iwas hired as an assistanthigh school principal atSidney High School.”Borchers held this po-

sition for five years. It wasduring this assignmentthat he was part of aweekly broadcast onWMVR radio.“The five minute seg-

ment allowed the districtto highlight some facet ofthe school system eachSaturday morning.Whileit was sometimes chal-lenging to come up withnew items every week, itdid require me to gainmore of a district-wideperspective rather thanfocusing solely on hap-penings at Sidney HighSchool.”In 1990 Borchers was

hired by theNewBremenSchool district as the highschool principal, a post hehas held for the past 22years. Among the manymemorable momentsBorchers has of his timewith New Bremen HighSchool is the school beingrecognized as a NationalNo Child Left BehindBlue Ribbon SchoolAward Recipient in 2005and having achieved anexcellent rating on itsState Report Card for 12consecutive years.Also he said, “ Travel-

ing with our students hasalso been memorable aswell. More than a dozentimes I traveled to Wash-ington, D.C.,with our sen-ior class and have had theopportunity to make anumber of trips to Vir-ginia Beach and DisneyWorld with our band

and choirs.”There have beenmany

changes in the 35 yearsBorchers has been in edu-cation. Among them hecited the increased expec-tations placed on stu-dents and schools. Ninthand 12th grade profi-ciency tests led to theOhio Graduation Testsand OAA.He said, “Soon another

new generation of man-dated tests will be re-quired of our students todetermine if they are col-lege- and career-ready.”He also pointed out the

push for graduating highschool seniors to haveearned college credits bygraduation.“Multiple options in-

cluding Advanced Place-ment coursework, dualenrollment, post-sec-ondary education options,flex credits and articula-tion agreements have alltaken their place in highschools as means for stu-dents to gain a head starton their college careers.”The pace at which

technological advance-ments have made an im-pact upon the implementsused by teachers is an-other change Borcherspointed out.“Change is now occur-

ring so rapidly and newinformation being createdat such a tremendouspace, that students can-not be expected to learneverything about a givensubject.As a result, one ofour primary focuses in ed-ucation has become thecritical need to teach stu-dents how to locate, ana-

lyze, evaluate and drawconclusions from the vastmultitudes of resourcesavailable at their finger-tips.”Upon retirement,

Borchers hopes to spendmore timewith his family,do some traveling and“enjoy the freedoms beingretired brings.”However, he leaves

some words of wisdom tothose just embarkingupon their careers in edu-cation.“I would say you are

entering the educationfield at an exciting andcrucial juncture.Since theway we have done busi-ness in the past is nolonger meeting the needsof our students, change isthe name of the game.This change provides un-told opportunities forthose willing to embracethe challenge of looking tothe future and discerningwhat the needs of our stu-dents will be. Our cur-riculum and instructionalpractices must be re-designed to meet thoseneeds in order for schoolsto remain viable.”One of the best things

about being involved ineducation for all theseyears, according toBorchers, is crossingpaths with former stu-dents. Hearing the storiesof their journeys afterhigh school and their fam-ilies can be fulfilling.He said, “The satisfac-

tion of knowing youplayed even a small rolein helping them achievetheir success is quite grat-ifying.”

Saturday, May 5, 2012Try not to get impatient in the yearahead if the fruits of your labors aremuch slower to ripen than you ex-pected. Time is your ally, and as longas you don’t upset the applecart, yourcrop could be greater than projected.TAURUS (April 20-May 20) —Unlessyou have the expertise, don’t try to in-struct another on how somethingshould be done. Your suggestionscould cause complications and makethe situation worse.GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Tryingto be someone or something you reallyaren’t could sour several people whomyou’re very anxious to favorably im-press. Relax and just be yourself.CANCER (June 21-July 22) — If youfind that most people tend to disagreewith your opinions, you’d better stopand ask yourself who is in the wrong.You might be the one out of step.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — This couldbe one of those days when you’re farmore negative than you realize. Un-less you lighten up, it isn’t likely you’llfind too much to like or enjoy.VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Unlessyou are extremely frugal, economicpressures could come to bear. Buyonly that which is essential and don’tget anything on an installment pro-gram.LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — In orderto avoid some petty conflicts withinthe household, you’ll need to be ex-tremely tactful when dealing withfamily members. It will be hard to re-tract any harsh words.SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Takecare not to unwittingly pass on anyharmful information about a friendthat is predicated on hearsay. If whatyou say ends up being taken asgospel, you’ll be held accountable.SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) —Even if you are normally a good man-ager of your funds, things could eas-ily go amok if you give in to yourwants. Try harder to keep you ac-counts in order.CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) —Normally you’re the first one to real-ize that there are no shortcuts to suc-cess, so don’t start banking yourhopes on wishful thinking. Be pre-pared to work hard for what youwant.AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — It be-hooves you to try to see things fromthe other guy’s perspective, not justyour own. You might even be sur-prised at how much you learn fromthe fresh view.PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Avoidbeing drawn into something of ques-tionable value in which the burden isbeing disproportionately placed onyou. First, make sure it’s worth it.ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Don’tlook for others to jump in and helpyou achieve your aims— it won’t hap-pen.

Nursing: The Health of a NationThis year’s theme forNational Nursing Weekis a continuation of thecampaign “Nursing: TheHealth of a Nation”.Without nurses, wewould suffer throughlonger waits at our pub-licly funded health insti-tutions, our elderly andbed-ridden would beforced to endure theagony of clinic waitingrooms, and our childrenand teens would know alot less about how tokeep in good health.Sponsored by the Cana-dian Nurses Associa-tion, National NursingWeek is a celebration ofthose who work in publichealth clinics, hospitalsand clinics, and privateand home-care organi-zations. CNA presidentJudith Shamian says it is atime to “acknowledge andcelebrate nursing — aprofession in which goingabove and beyond is adaily occurrence.”The CAN representsjust over 145,000 regis-tered nurses who work onthe front lines and behindthe scenes. Not only dothey assist physicians inadministering direct care,they work to educatecommunity membersabout hygiene, safe sexpractices, disease control,and disease prevention.

The men and womenwho practice

nursing are thefront-line healthcare

providers inevery community.

They are the front-line caregivers in hospital emer-gency rooms, medical clin-ics, learning institutions,and homes for the elderly.In many of Canada’s re-mote northern communi-ties, often the only healthcare practitioner who liveson-site and treats people isa registered nurse or nursepractitioner. These womenandmen are all-in-one: theydeal with emergencies, takecare of vaccination pro-

grams, educatethe public abouthealth and repro-ductive issues,and of course theyoften serve ascounsellor-friendsto communitymembers.This year, let’sall find a way to recognizethe nurses who work hardto make our healthcare sys-tem accessible and effi-cient.
