Ethan Bonifas won Junior
Showmanship for hogs this
weekend at the Van Wert
County Fair. The 11-year-
old Delphos Pathfinder has
showed goats at the fair for
the second year now but
this is his first time show-
ing hogs. He says hogs are
easier and more obedient.
“I think hogs are easier;
goats are harder because you
have to grab them by the
collar but with hogs, you use
a stick. They follow direc-
tion better than goats do,”
he said. Kim Schnipke shows her steer Saturday at the Van Wert County Fair. She won the
Bonifas got involved with Senior Showmanship competition through the Delphos Pathfinders 4-H Club.

Each group is limited to
15 children and sign up is

Storytime is geared for chil-
dren ages 3-6. Story and music
activities are also planned for

ing and get prepared to learn
to read. This group meets at

hogs because of his brother.
“My brother Brock had
been doing it and I thought
it was cool and decided I
wanted to do it,” he said.
“He taught me how to feed
them and we take turns
doing it. I spend a lot of
time with them; two hours
every day washing them and
walking them. I have two
hogs and I keep them at Joe
Burgei’s farm and he taught
me a lot, too. He taught me
how to walk them and gave
me tips on what to feed them
and how to show them at the
fair.”
His mother, Cathy, says
her son has learned sever-
al key life skills by raising
livestock.
“He has the responsibil-
ity of taking care of some-

to make sure it’s healthy
and has everything it needs.
That has taught him to
think of something beyond
just himself. He also has
to do a job and do it well.

Kim Schnipke won Senior
Showmanship for Steer at this
year’s Van Wert County Fair.
The St. John’s 17-year-old
has worked with livestock
since she was young and says
it’s a full-time job.
“I have been showing at
the fair since third grade. I
have two pigs and two cows in
our barn and it’s a lot of work
taking care of them every
day,” she said. “I spend three
hours with them every morn-
ing and another three hours
every night. It takes six hours
to walk all of them a mile,
feed them, water them and
wash them. Most of the time
is spent walking them and
you have to oil them so their
skin is shiny. With the steer,
you have to rinse them down
to bring down their body tem-
perature because they grow
their hair when they are cool.
Some people have air condi-
tioned barns, but we don’t so
I work hard.”
In addition to raising live-
stock day-in and day-out,
she is also involved with the
junior fair board and is the
beef barn superintendent.
She said she has meetings
in the evenings and now that
school has started, she gets to
do homework, too.
Vicki Schnipke is the
workhorse’s proud mother
who says her daughter has
learned much from having
such a busy schedule.
“She has learned a lot of
responsibility, time-man-
agement and organizational
skills. She has to take care of
the animals, go to school, do
her homework and she serves
on the junior fair board. She’s
very responsible,” she said.
Because of her age, the
Delphos Pathfinder has more
years ahead of her at the fair.
“Because of my age, I
still have two years at the
fair. The fair is when I get
to see my friends from other
schools. I have had a lot of
fun in 4-H and I encourage
kids to give it a try, even if
it’s just for a year,” she said.

Wildfire levels
dozens of homes
in Colorado
DENVER (AP) — A wind-
whipped wildfire sent flames
roaring through a rugged can-
yon in the Colorado foothills,
forcing hundreds of people to
flee and destroying dozens of
homes — some that belonged
to the firefighters themselves,
authorities said early today.
Firefighters were waiting
until sunrise to count the exact
number of houses that have
burned, said Brett Haberstick
of the Sunshine Fire Protection
District.
The blaze broke out Monday
morning in Four Mile Canyon
northwest of Boulder and rap-
idly spread across 5 1/2 square
miles or 3,500 acres. Erratic
45-mph gusts sometimes sent
the fire in two directions at
once.
Crews managed to save
the historic town of Gold Hill,
including an old West grocery
store and structures once used
for stagecoach stops. But fire-
fighters in the area had to relo-
cate their engines and equip-
ment several times to avoid the
flames.
“The fire moved too quickly
and was much more active than
anticipated,” Haberstick said.
Despite the fire’s destructive
advance, no injuries have been
reported, although some resi-
dents told of narrow escapes.
“I just drove through a wall of
flames,” Tom Neur told KDVR-
TV. “The bumper is melted off
in the front of the van.”
Neur’s wife, Anna, left ear-
lier, and the couple reunited at
temporary shelter. They said
their house was destroyed.
“I don’t care about the
house,” Anna Neur told her
husband. “I’m just glad you’re
OK.” At 1:10 p.m. Sunday,

Tropical Storm Hermine
crosses into Texas
By PAUL J. WEBER
The Associated Press
McALLEN (AP) —
Tropical Storm Hermine
began to lose its punch as
it pushed north today, after
causing landslides in north-
east Mexico and leaving one
Texas town almost entirely
without power.
As when Hurricane Alex
lashed the same flood-prone
Rio Grande Valley in June,
there was a feeling that
Hermine could have been
worse. There were no reports
of serious injuries or major
damage early today, and
authorities ordered no evacu-
ations.
Hermine dumped between
5 inches to a foot of rain
after crossing into Texas
late Monday. The storm
made landfall in northeastern
At 12:11 a.m. Sunday,
Delphos Police Officers
responded to the 700 block
of S. Main Street in reference
to an active domestic dispute.
When the officers arrived the
victim reported she had been
assaulted by her son during
an argument. While one offi-
cer spoke with the victim the
other officers took 29 year
old Travis Wood into custody
who had fled from the resi-
dence. He was transported
to the Allen County Justice
Center and will appear in
Lima Municipal Court on
Domestic Violence Charges.

But unlike Alex, which

Hermine was felt in more

“This is going to be much
more of a memorable storm

Service meteorologist Joseph

Gun stolen in
1987 turns up
in Washington
OXFORD (AP) — A gun
stolen from a southwest Ohio
home has been recovered 23
years later at a pawn shop in
Washington state.
Police Chief Michael Goins
in Ohio’s Oxford Township
say there’s no telling how the
.45-caliber Colt 1911 series
pistol made the cross-coun-
try trip. Police discovered the
gun’s whereabouts using a
computer database of informa-
tion gathered from pawn shops
and other businesses.
Goins’ department was
alerted about the gun several
months ago by a detective in
Lakewood, Wash.
The pistol had been taken
during an October 1987 bur-
glary at the Oxford Township
home of Ralph Rud. Rud, who
now lives in Connersville, Ind.,
says he’s amazed police still
had the gun on their books.

US to throw money at
Afghanistan for years
By DESMOND BUTLER
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP)
— The U.S. government’s
financial commitment to
Afghanistan is likely to lin-
ger and reach into the bil-
lions long after it pulls com-
bat troops from the country,
newly disclosed spending
estimates show.
The United States expects
to spend about $6 billion a
year training and supporting
Afghan troops and police
after it begins withdrawing its
own combat troops in 2011.
The estimates of U.S.
spending through 2015,
detailed in a NATO train-
ing mission document, are
an acknowledgment that
Afghanistan will remain
largely dependent on the
United States for its security.
That reality could become
problematic for the Obama
administration as it continues
to seek money for Afghanistan
from Congress in a time of
increasingly tight budgets.
In Brussels, a NATO offi-
cial said Monday that alli-
ance commander Gen. David
Petraeus had asked for 2,000
more soldiers, with nearly
half to be trainers for the
rapidly expanding Afghan
security forces. The NATO
official requested anonymity
because he was not autho-
rized to speak on the subject.

Obama getting fewer judges
confirmed than Nixon did
By MARK SHERMAN
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A
determined Republican stall
campaign in the Senate has
sidetracked so many of the
men and women nominated
by President Barack Obama
for judgeships that he has put
fewer people on the bench than
any president since Richard
Nixon at a similar point in his
first term 40 years ago.
The delaying tactics have
proved so successful, despite the
Democrats’ substantial Senate
majority, that fewer than half of
Obama’s nominees have been
confirmed and 102 out of 854
judgeships are vacant.
Forty-seven of those
vacancies have been labeled
emergencies by the judiciary
because of heavy caseloads.
Even some Republican sen-
ators have complained. Sen.
Lamar Alexander took to the
Senate floor in July to plead
with his own leaders for a
vote on an appeals court judge
supported by Alexander and

Talking cure for peace

Point
of View
times. Different faces, ethnici-
ties and nationalities, but the
same dynamic and, for mem-
bers of an older generation,
the same revelation.
The ancient rivalries and
the heavy burden of history
are being lifted among a rising
generation of world citizens
even as the taupe generation
rehashes the same -- may I
just say -- absurd arguments
over who gets to claim which
square inch of the sandbox.
That is so last millennium.
Enter the Facebook gen-
eration, for whomel mundo
es un panuelo, as perhaps
500 million people might put
it. Translation: It’s a small
world. When one can com-
municate with another with a
keystroke or a click, the world
is a computer bit.
As I watched these four
interact, it occurred to me that
in Facebook world, where
friends connect, and friends
of friends “friend” each other,
and networks of associations
expand like a circulatory
system to all reaches permit-
ted by technology (and gov-
ernments), it is increasingly
unlikely that the warring fac-
tions can sustain themselves
for much longer.
Friends don’t kill friends
infrastructure projects, includ-
ing a military hospital and
military and police academies,
aimed at “establishing endur-
ing institutions” and “creating
irreversible momentum.”
Spending for training is
projected to taper off from
$11.6 billion next year to an
average of $6.2 billion over the
following four years. Much of
the reduction reflects reduced
spending on infrastructure.
The Obama administra-
tion recently announced that
it intends to ramp up the total
Afghan army and police force
from nearly 250,000 today to
more than 300,000 by late
next year. The mission will be
largely paid for by the United
States, with smaller contribu-
tions from NATO allies. The
projected multibillion-dollar
cost of maintaining those forc-
es would be inconceivable for
Afghanistan’s small economy
without foreign aid.
One of the arguments
against dramatically increas-
ing the size of Afghan security
forces, even during George
W. Bush’s administration,
was that the Afghan govern-
ment would be unable to pay
for them for the foreseeable
future. The NATO document
shows that the U.S. will end
up footing most of the bill.
The Obama administration
has boosted the training mis-
sion in preparation for next
year’s drawdown. The United
States spent over $20 billion
on training between 2003 and
Sen. Bob Corker.
With Congress returning
Sept. 13 for a session short-
ened by members’ desire to
campaign for re-election in
November, there’s little time
to reverse the trend. Some say
there’s little chance of revers-
ing it as polls show a rising
chance the GOP will capture
the Senate, which could stiff-
en GOP resistance to confir-
mation votes.
The Obama administration
got a slow start sending names
to the Senate last year and has
yet to try to fill two vacancies
on the high-profile federal
appeals court in the District of
Columbia, where four current
Supreme Court justices once
served.
Obama has voiced only
tepid public objection as
more and more of his judicial
nominees become stranded
in Senate limbo, and Senate
Majority Leader Harry Reid
has been unwilling to set aside
the considerable time needed
to force votes under complex
Senate rules.
Now there are 45 nominees
-- most of the time.
We seem to understand the
opportunities social network-
ing provides for commercial
and political purposes. Barack
Obama is president in no small
part because of the grass-roots
facility of social media. That
same power can be harnessed
for peace. In fact, it is happen-
ing under our noses.
But why not be strategic
about something so easily
channeled for good?
Bibi, Abbas and Obama
may be rich in vowels, but
the words are all the same.
In a virtual universe, where
Google can translate almost
any language instantaneously,
younger people of all nation-
alities are creating and com-
municating through a com-
mon idiom.
Not to be a Pollyanna,
but it is striking to realize
that peace becomes plausible
when barriers to communi-
cation are eliminated. More
than 500 million people use
Facebook alone. Of those, 70
percent are outside the United
States. MySpace has 122 mil-
lion monthly active users, and
Twitter reports 145 million
registered users.
Obviously, some countries
don’t like these media for the
very reasons we do. People
talk. Facebook is blocked in
Syria and China, and until
recently was also blocked in
Iran, Pakistan and Bangladesh.
Where freedom flourishes, so
do open channels of commu-
nication.
And vice versa.

2009 and expects to spend
about the same this year and
next alone.
The head of the NATO
training mission, U.S. Lt. Gen.
Bill Caldwell, said bolstering
Afghanistan’s security forces
is cost-efficient.
“It will always be more
expensive to have a coali-
tion force doing something
than an Afghan counterpart,”
Caldwell said in a written
response to questions from
The Associated Press.
Caldwell said he is sensi-
tive to the concern that the
United States is creating
dependence and is looking for
ways of cutting costs.
“This dependency is some-
thing that we think about all
the time,” he said. “We know
the sooner the Afghan systems
are up and running the sooner
coalition forces can transition
responsibilities to the sover-
eign government.”
Todd Harrison, an analyst
with the Center for Strategic
and Budgetary Assessments,
said it will be difficult to wean
the Afghan security forces
quickly.
“We really do have a long
way to go before this winds
down,” he said.
Caldwell has said he aims
to have Afghan security forces
at sufficient numbers to begin
a U.S. withdrawal by October
2011. The mission has had to
deal with illiteracy, corruption
and desertion among Afghan
forces.
awaiting action, two for nearly
13 months. After Alexander’s
complaint, the Republicans
agreed to allow a mid-Sep-
tember vote for appeals court
nominee Jane Stranch, first
nominated by Obama in
August 2009.
At this point in President
George W. Bush’s first term,
72 judges had been confirmed
by a Senate that Democrats
controlled for much of Bush’s
first two years. By contrast,
the Senate has had 59 or 60
seats under Democratic con-
trol during Obama’s tenure
but has only confirmed 40
of his judges. Nixon got 33
judges through a Democratic-
controlled Senate.
“What’s interesting is you
got a guy (Bush) who was
barely elected president with
a Senate in the hands of the
opposing party, and he is
going to come out better in
his first two years than a guy
who got elected with a big
majority and had a big major-
ity in the Senate too,” said
Brookings Institution scholar
Russell Wheeler.
We also know that where
freedom and communication
flourish, wars are less likely.
This isn’t computer science
but human nature. Hence, we
gather around heavy tables to
talk things out.
Meanwhile, evidence
mounts that sentiments are
shifting among younger peo-
ple, whose worldviews are
broader than previous genera-
tions’. Recent polling by Frank
Luntz found that American
Jewish college students are
more willing than their elders
to question the Israeli posi-
tion. They resist groupthink
and desperately want peace.
Might Palestinian youth
feel similarly? Alas, no simi-
lar polls exist that I could
find.
If I were dictator for a
day, I would arrange for every
young person to “friend”
another in the enemy camp of
their choice, creating virtual
student-exchange programs in
every neighborhood on the
map. While the old folks bick-
er over their sandboxes, the
children could begin building
fortresses of friendship.
The hope for freedom and
peace that resides in most
human hearts may not be real-
ized soon. But for the first
time in history, it seems inevi-
table. Social media may not
create peace, but surely it will
increase demand for it.
The talking cure is at our
fingertips.

“There are only two last-
ing bequests we can hope
to give our children. One of
these is roots. The other is
wings.”
That is a quote by Hodding
Carter and it has always been
one of my favorites. It is a
good one to remember as this
new school year starts.
As we set out on a new
year, we are consumed with
school supplies and new
clothes. It is easy to get frus-
trated by the daily homework
grind and the “forgotten”
assignments.
Now is the perfect time to
make a plan with your kids.
Sit them down and set a goal
to have the best school year
ever. Try to set up some time
where you can work with
them or check their assign-
ments each day. Help them to
see that the work they put in
during the week pays off with
better grades. Plan a “Fun
Friday” or “Super Saturday”
as a reward for their hard
work.
Try to turn homework
time from an annoying chore
that you have to do into a
fun game. Encourage them
to set up questions from their
school work in style similar
to “Are You Smarter Than a
Fifth Grader.” See if they can
stump you. Wager chores,

litter. Not only is it a lot of
fun, but while they are scour-

rushed upstairs and put on the

as he carefully adjusted the
cape, fluffed it out a few
times so it sat just so, and
then leaped off the bed with
his arms outstretched.
He landed with a thunk
on the floor. Undaunted

Blue Jays get clean sweep of Wildcats Lady Green shuts

By AUSTIN
CLARKSON
The Delphos Herald

DELPHOS — The St.
John’s Blue Jays volleyball
team started slowly against
Kenton Saturday morn-
ing at Robert A. Arnzen
Gymnasium.
However, after a tough
early going, the Lady Jays
rolled the rest of the way
as they swept the Wildcats
25-21, 25-19, 25-17.
The first game of the set
was back and forth and both
teams seemed like they were
not all on the same page yet,
as is typical of what you get
Saturday mornings. The Jays
were able to take advantage
of some of the Wildcats’ mis-
haps late in set 1 and got out
to a 21-18 lead. With the
score 24-21 in favor of the
home team, the Jays sent a
serve flying over the net that
the Wildcats were not able to
get back over the net in three
hits and gave the Jays the
set-winning point to a take a
1-set-to-0 lead.
St. John’s head coach
Kellie Sterling thought that
her team played pretty well
Saturday morning.
“I thought that we came out
a little slow today and I think
that some of that is because
this is our first Saturday game
St. John’s players Katie Wallenhorst and Shelby Reindel
combine for a block of an attempted Kenton hit Saturday
morning. The host Lady Blue Jays vanquished the Wildcats
in a sweep.
of the year and typically the
girls are a little slow to get
started,” she explained.
With the momentum on
the Jays’ side, the home team
Tom Morris photo
was looking to pick up where
it left off set 1 and get another
victory in set 2. The Jays got
out to another early lead by a
score of 10-8 and were look-
ing to continue the good play
and get out to a 2-0 lead after
two sets in the books. The
home team controlled the rest
of set 2 and held a 7-point
lead late, at 21-14. The Jays
were able to continue that
dominating fashion and won
set 2 by six points and take a
commanding 2-set lead.
Leading the way for
the Lady Jays overall were
seniors Tiffany Geise and
Gabby Metzner, who both tal-
lied up seven kills on the day,
while sophomore teammate
Emily Horstman had 10 digs
and three aces.
The Jays were looking to
close out set 3 and get the
clean sweep of the Wildcats
Saturday morning and they
did just that. The Jays got out
to yet another early lead in
the frame and were looking to
put the finishing touches on a
well-played game. Sophomore
Heather Vogt was able to tally
up five blocks on the day for
the Jays, while seniorKatie
Wallenhorst added 14 assists
Saturday. The home team was
able to finish the Wildcats off
late in the contest and take the
third frame by eight points,
thus finishing off the clean
sweep.
With the win, the Lady
Jays move to 3-1 on the year
and will travel to Lima Central
Catholic Wednesday night
to take on the Thunderbirds,
with a JV start time of 6 p.m.

OTTOVILLE — The
Ottoville Big Green hosted
the Vanlue Wildcats in vol-
leyball action Saturday morn-
ing.
They didn’t show a lot of
mercy toward their
foe, crushing them
25-14, 25-9, 25-6.
Vanlue only
led once the entire
match; that was in
the first set early with
the score of 2-1.
Ottoville won
the sets with big runs. The
first set, Ottoville had runs of
seven and 11 points to Vanlue
having one run of four points.
The Big Green had 6 aces and
Vanlue one in the first set.
Ottoville’s Tonya Kaufman
(17-of-18 serving, 13 points;
2 kills) led the match with
eight aces, four coming in
the first set. Tasha Kaufman
for Ottoville (11-of-12 serv-
ing, 9 serve points; 4 kills)
added two aces in the first set.
Vanlue had only one ace dur-
ing that time, their only one
in the match. The set ended
with Vanlue not being able to
get the volley over net, giving
the set to Ottoville.
contributed seven kills to the
effort. Ottoville had 15 kills
in the whole match compared
to Vanlue’s mere two kills
on the day. Ottoville had 3
runs in the set of 10, five and
four points that set the tone.
The set ended with a Vanlue
player stepping off sides.
“We were missing our two
best hitters today. I
know the team has it
in them to do great

seventh straight win.

victory, finishing with 2 2/3 innings of scoreless
relief. Jose Valverde (2-4) took the loss.
Manny Ramirez led off the Chicago 10th

Jeff Manship (2-0) gave up two runs in

Even though he leads the NL in victories,
Jimenez (18-6) hadn’t won since Aug. 4. He
allowed seven hits and matched a season high
with six walks, one intentional, in six innings
and 123 pitches. Troy Tulowitzki homered,
tripled and drove in three runs for the Rockies.
Carlos Gonzalez extended his hitting streak to a
career-best 14 games and finished 3-for-5 with
two RBIs, raising his batting average to .340.
Tulowitzki broke a 4-all tie in the fifth when
he homered off Bill Bray (0-2).
