50 daily www.delphosherald.com BY MARK SHERMAN The Associated Press WASHINGTON The Supreme Court today upheld the individual insurance requirement at the heart of President Barack Obamas historic health care overhaul. The decision means the huge overhaul, still only partly in effect, will proceed and pick up momentum over the next several years, affecting the way that countless Americans receive and pay for their personal medical care. The ruling also hands Obama a campaign-season victory in rejecting arguments that Congress went too far in requiring most Americans to have health insurance or pay a penalty. Breaking with the courts other conservative justices, Chief Justice John Roberts announced the judgment that allows the law to go forward with its aim of covering more than 30 million uninsured Americans. The justices rejected two of the administrations three arguments in support of the insurance requirement. But the court said the mandate can be construed as a tax. Because the Constitution permits such a tax, it is not our role to forbid it, or to pass upon its wisdom or fairness, Roberts said. The court found problems

ing non-consenting states all Medicaid funding, the dissenters said in a joint statement. Republican campaign strategists said presidential candidate Mitt Romney will use the courts ruling to continue campaigning against Obamacare and attacking the presidents signature health care program as a tax increase. Obama might have his law, but the GOP has a cause, said veteran campaign adviser Terry Holt. This promises to galvanize Republican support around a repeal of what could well be called the largest tax increase in American history.
be rude, Seitter says. At the same time, I think its a little discriminatory for a practice that is considered legal. Bans on use, advertising and sales of tobacco in all its forms are being enacted or considered at perhaps half of campuses nationwide, sometimes over the objections of student smokers, staff and faculty. The movement is driven by mounting evidence of the health risks of secondhand smoke, the reduced costs of smoke-free dorms and a drive to minimize enticements to smoke at a critical age for forming lifelong habits. Californias state system will begin to bar tobacco use in 2013. A ban on use and advertising at the City University of New York system goes See SMOKING, page 3

COLUMBUS With heat and humidity on the rise, the Ohio Department of Health and Ohio Emergency Management Agency urge residents to use extra care to avoid heat-related illness over the next several days. Even short periods of high temperatures can cause serious health problems. During hot weather health emergencies, keep informed by listening to local weather and news channels or contact local health departments for health and safety updates. Doing too much on a hot day, spending too much time in the sun or staying too long in an overheated place can cause heat-related illnesses When temperatures are extremely hot and there is high humidity, the body has to work extra hard to try to maintain a normal temperature, said ODH Director Ted Wymyslo, M.D. We start to see heat-related illnesses such as heat stroke and
is overwhelmed. Its important to pay attention to warnings; in 2010 there were nine related deaths in Ohio. According to FEMA, most heat disorders occur because a person has been over-exposed to heat or has over-exercised for his/her age and physical condition. People most at risk for heat injuries are infants and young children; people age 65 and older; overweight people; people who over-exert during work or exercise; and people who are ill or on certain medications. Summer is the ideal season for increased outdoor activity and fun in the sun, said Nancy Dragani, Ohio EMA executive director. But summer is also the time where people have increased injuries and accidents. If you have neighbors who are elderly or have special medical needs, check on them to ensure theyre cool enough and have enough water to drink. See CAUTION, page 3

Witnesses reported hearing one blast, but state-run TV said two explosions struck the area. The report also said a roadside bomb was found but did not explode. Syria has been hit by a wave of massive explosions in recent months, killing dozens of people. Most of the explosions targeted the security agencies of President Bashar Assad, who is fighting to end a 15-month-old uprising against his rule. Last month, an explosion targeted a military intelligence compound south of Damascus killing 55 people. It was Syrias deadliest blast.

BRIEFS
a summer vacation
tem goes into effect in September, and the University of Missouri at Columbia is going smoke-free in 2014. Ohio higher education officials plan a vote next month urging all public campuses to ban tobacco use. That includes Ohio State, one of the nations largest universities, which currently bans only indoor smoking. According to the surgeon generals report for 2012, tobacco use among people ages 18 to 25 remains at epidemic proportions nationwide. The review found 90 percent of smokers started by age 18, and 99 percent by age 26. About a quarter to a third of college students smoke, studies have found. The study found the U.S. would have 3 million fewer young smokers if success in reducing youth smoking by state tobacco-cessation programs from 1997 to 2003 had been sustained. Many of the programs have been hit by budget cuts. Health and education officials, anti-smoking groups and a generation of students who grew up smoke-free are increasingly united on the issue, says Bronson Frick, associate director of Americans for Nonsmokers Rights. There are many reasons why a college or university may choose to pursue this type of policy, whether secondhand smoke, dorm fires, or other issues, he says. They are also questioning what the role of tobacco is in this academic setting, where were supposed to be standing for truth and training the next generation of leaders. According to data kept by the nonsmokers group, campus tobacco bans have risen from virtually zero a decade ago to 711 today. That includes both four-year and two-year institutions, both public and private. One of the first campuses to ban tobacco was Ozarks Technical Community College in Springfield, Mo., which endorsed the move in 1999 and put it in place four years later. The school also established a research center that works with other colleges and hospitals pursuing similar moves, now known as the National Center for Tobacco Policy. Ty Patterson, the centers director, says Ozarks quickly realized that its previous policy of allowing smoking in designated outdoor areas was impractical and couldnt be properly enforced.

To help avoid heat injuries and illness, people should plan outdoor activities for either early morning or late evening, when the sun is less direct. Wear loose-fitting, light-colored clothing and a wide-brimmed hat to protect against sunburn. Move to the shade or into an air conditioned building at the first signs of becoming overheated. Heat-related symptoms can come on quickly. Use the following tips from ODH and Ohio EMA to help beat the heat: Drink cool (not icy cold) fluids Active people should drink 2-4 glasses (16-32 ounces) of cool, non-alcoholic fluids every hour. Drinking water is best. Do not take salt tablets without a physicians advice. Avoid beverages that contain alcohol or caffeine, because they can add to dehydration and increase the effects of heat illnesses. Monitor or limit outdoor activities Young children may become preoccupied with outdoor play and not realize they are overheated. Adults should mandate frequent breaks and bring children indoors to cool down and have cool drinks. Children or adolescents

involved in team sports should be closely monitored for signs of heat stress. Consideration should be given to modifying practice or games during the hottest parts of the day. Know how to treat heat exhaustion Symptoms of heat exhaustion include: heavy sweating, paleness, muscle cramps, tiredness, weakness, dizziness, headache, nausea or fainting. People experiencing these symptoms should be moved to a shady or air-conditioned area. Remove or loosen tight clothing and apply cool, wet clothes or towels. Have person sip on a half glass of cool water every 15 minutes. If the person refuses water, vomits or loses consciousness, call 911 or the local emergency number. Know how to treat heat stroke Heat stroke is a lifethreatening situation. Call 911 immediately. Symptoms include: a body temperature of 103 degrees or higher, red, hot and dry skin with no sweating, rapid pulse, headache, dizziness, nausea, confusion, unconsciousness, and gray skin color.

Sky-high temperatures arent unusual in this part of the country, but it is warm enough this week that five records were set on Tuesday. Anderson preheated the skillet for 10 minutes in the sun, and it took an hour for the meat to fully cook. And, yes, they ate it. My only regret is it was turkey bacon instead of pork bacon, but thats all we had, Anderson said. __ Not everyone is sweltering In the northern corners of the United States, the weather was the opposite of infernal.

hose or by placing the person in a cool tub of water. Never leave children or pets in vehicles Even in cool temperatures, cars can heat up to dangerous temperatures quickly. Even if the windows are cracked open, interior temperatures can rise almost 20 degrees within the first 10 minutes. Children or animals left inside a vehicle is at risk for serious heat-related illnesses or even death. When traveling with children (even routine drives), remember to do the following: To remind yourself that a child is in the car, place bags, phones or other items you will take with you in the back seat. This will force you to turn around before exiting the car. When leaving your vehicle, check the front and back seats to make sure no sleeping children (or pets) are left in the car.

POLITICS
Man is born free; and everywhere he is in chains. One thinks himself the master of others, and still remains a greater slave than they.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778)
Moderately confused
WASHINGTON (AP) The House on Tuesday turned back an attempt by a tea party-backed GOP conservative to slash taxpayer subsidies for air service to isolated smaller cities and towns that can cost hundreds of dollars a ticket. The 238-164 vote killed a bid by Rep. Tom McClintock, R-Calif., to slash the Essential Air Service program, which subsidizes flights to 120 communities in 35 states in the continental U.S. and Puerto Rico and 43 towns in Alaska. The vote came as the House debated a $107 billion transportation spending bill for the budget year beginning Oct. 1. Republicans controlling the House had voted to eliminate the oft-criticized program last year while they considered renewing federal aviation programs, but a coalition of Democrats and Republicans representing rural America reversed the move in the Senate. Despite modest changes to the program enacted earlier this year, its budget now would reach a new high to $214 million under Tuesdays legislation. McClintocks amendment would have eliminated $114 million in direct taxpayer subsidies; he was blocked under House rules from attacking $100 million in subsidies automatically financed by overflight fees paid by aircraft that fly over the U.S. but dont take off or land here. This is about the easiest choice the House could possibly make, to put an end to the so-called Essential Air Service that lavishly subsidizes some of the least essential air services in the country, McClintock said. Rural life has both great advantages and disadvantages, and it is not the job of hardworking taxpayers who choose to live elsewhere to level out the differences. The program awards contracts, usually worth between $1 million and $2 million a year, to subsidize airlines that serve airports such as Altoona, Pa., Paducah, Ky., and Cape Girardeau, Mo. Such subsidies can be quite modest, but can reach hundreds of dollars each way on a round trip ticket from places like Ironwood in Michigans Upper Peninsula or several towns in Montana. The changes enacted earlier require that subsidized routes must average at least 10 passengers a day if they are to be renewed when current contracts are up, and new communities are blocked from receiving the subsidies. Last year, Congress prohibited subsidies from exceeding $1,000 a passenger. The savings from such steps will take a while to take hold but are likely to prove modest. Supporters of the subsidies say having access to air service is crucial to the economies of rural towns. This program plays a key role in the economic development in many rural communities by ensuring that air service continues, said Rep. Tom Latham, R-Iowa. In fact, the wide reach of the program contributes to the sweeping support it gets, both from Democrats but also from conservative Republicans who suspend their anti-big government rhetoric when their districts are affected.
the government charges no interest while students are still in school, even if it takes them longer than six years to graduate. The financing was described by Senate Democratic and GOP aides who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss details of the emerging agreement. Asked if Boehner would sign off on the agreement, spokesman Michael Steel said, Well take a look. The pension money was also being discussed as way to finance an extension of federal transportation programs, which expire this weekend. Leaders were hoping agreement on both bills could be approved before Congress leaves town for its July 4 break at weeks end. Obama spent part of this spring traveling to college campuses to underscore his effort to prevent the interest rates from rising. In so doing, he was appealing to student-age voters who supported him strongly in the 2008 presidential election. Hoping to pre-empt Obama from using student loans as an issue this fall, GOP presidential challenger Mitt Romney said in April that he supported extending the lower loan rates. Congressional GOP leaders said they supported an extension as well, though some rank-and-file Republicans still oppose the idea, arguing it is too expensive and that financial markets should set the lending rates.
WASHINGTON Congressional leaders have tentatively agreed on a twoyear bill to overhaul federal highway programs that drops a requirement that the government approve the Keystone XL oil pipeline. Senate aides said they were working Wednesday to put the agreement into legislative language, which must happen before House and Senate leaders formally sign off on the deal. The leaders will also want time to sound out their members support for the measure. The aides described the deal on condition of anonymity because the deal wasnt final. House Republicans had pushed for inclusion of a provision that would go around President Barack Obama by requiring a federal energy agency approve the oil pipeline, which would transport oil from Canadas tar sands to Port Arthur, Texas. The White House threatened to veto the bill if Keystone were included. Also eliminated from the bill was another provision sought by House Republicans that would have blocked the
pedestrian projects. Republicans have criticized the enhancements program as wasteful, saying it pays cities to plant flowers. Highway landscaping has been an eligible category for funds under the program, but supporters say far more money has gone to biking and walking projects. Under the agreement, the highway bill would be combined with another bill to prevent a doubling of student loan interest rates. Thats because lawmakers plan to use pension law changes to help pay for both measures. Congress is also facing weekend deadlines for both bills: Highway programs and the governments power to levy federal gasoline and diesel taxes are due to expire on Saturday. Interest rates on subsidized Stafford loans would double from their current 3.4 percent for 7.4 million students expected to receive such loans in the year beginning July 1 unless Congress acts. Both parties see the transportation bill as a jobs creator, and Congress best bet to do something about the nations stubbornly high unemployment rate before the November election.
by boosting feelings of satiety and fullness. Obesity Society President Patrick ONeil said hes encouraged by the drugs approval because it underscores the idea that lifestyle changes alone are not enough to treat obesity. This is good news because it tells us that the FDA is indeed treating obesity seriously. On the other hand, its not the answer to the problem or even a big part of the answer, said ONeil, who teaches at Medical University of South Carolina and was the lead researcher on several studies of Belviq. Even if the effects of Belviq are subtle, experts say it could be an important first step in a new line of treatments that attack the underlying causes of obesity. The way these things tend to work is you have some people who do extremely well and other people dont lose any weight at all. But if we had 10 medicines that were all different and worked like this, we would have a real field, said Dr. Louis Aronne, director of the weight loss program at Weill-Cornell Medical College.
WASHINGTON The Food and Drug Administration has approved Arena Pharmaceuticals anti-obesity pill Belviq, the first new prescription drug for long-term weight loss to enter the U.S. market in over a decade. Despite only achieving modest weight loss in clinical studies, the drug appeared safe enough to win the FDAs endorsement, amid calls from doctors for new weight-loss treatments. The agency cleared the pill Wednesday for adults who are obese or are overweight with at least one medical complication, such as diabetes or high cholesterol. The FDA denied approval for Arenas drug in 2010 after scientists raised concerns about tumors that developed in animals studied with the drug. The company resubmitted the drug with additional data earlier this year, and the FDA said there was little risk of tumors in humans. The approval of this drug, used responsibly in combination with a healthy diet and lifestyle, provides a treatment option for Americans who

FORT JENNINGS Jeffersons ACME summer baseball team put it all together at the plate versus Fort Jennings Wednesday night: 13 hits, nine bases-onballs, eight stolen bases and two hit batters; plus getting the benefit of five Musketeer errors and two balks. In the end, it ended up being a 17-5 rout on a warm evening at Fort Jennings Village Park. For the third game in a row, the Wildcats (8-6) got off quickly, scoring five times in the first inning. Tyler Wrasman (4 runs scored, 2-for-4, 2 runs batted in) was hit by a pitch from Musketeer starter Dylan Van Loo (2 2/3 innings pitched, 8 hits, 10 runs, 6 earned, 3 walks, 1 hit batter, 1 balk) to lead it off, stole second and took third on an error on the play. Zach Ricker (3-for-4, 3 runs, 2 RBIs) singled him in. He took second on an error on a pickoff play. A single to left by Austin Jettinghoff (3-for5, 2 runs) singled him to third and stole second himself. Zach Kimmett bounced out to third to plate Ricker for a 2-0 lead, with Jettinghoff taking third. An out hence, Seth Wollenhaupt walked and also swiped second. An error on Zavier Buzards grounder scored Jettinghoff and advanced Wollenhaupt. An error on a pickoff play allowed Wollenhaupt to score and put Buzard at third, from where he scored on Nick Fitchs blooper to short left for a 5-0 spread. That largesse staked Jefferson southpaw Gaige
Rassman (3 IPs, 4 hits, 2 earned runs, 1 wild pitch). Ricker got aboard on a 1-out ground single to left in the second and stole second but remained there. The Musketeers got within 5-2 in the home half. Josh Wittler singled to right; two outs later, Caleb Bankey also singled to right. Spencer Dray doubled to left to score both. Delphos made it 10-2 in the third. Drew Kortokrax walked to lead it off, stole second and took third on a grounder by Wollenhaupt. Buzard walked and burgled second. Fitch launched a sacrifice fly to left to score Kortokrax. Rassman shot a sinking liner into center to score Buzard and himself swiped second, scoring as Wrasman ripped a double down the left-field line. In turn, Ricker blooped a single down the left-field line to score Wrasman. Jettinghoff nailed a ground-rule double to left center to finish Van Loo and bring in Brent Clay (3.2 IPs, 5 hits, 7 runs, 6 earned, 4 BBs, 2 Ks). A wild pitch brought Ricker in for a 10-2 edge. Van Loo commenced the Musketeer half with a double to left center that Buzard dove for and took third on a wild pitch. However, Rassman got out of the frame unscathed. In the Wildcat fourth, Buzard beat out an infield hit with two down and stole second. Fitch walked. Both advanced on a balk and

Connor Wollenhorst was hit by Jefferson reliever Ricker (2 IPs, 1 unearned run, 1 hit batter, 1 wild pitch, 1 walk, 2 Ks) with one out in the home half and advanced as Bankey bounced out but couldnt score. The Red and White made it 12-2 in the fifth. Wrasman led off with a free pass, advanced on a wild pitch, a groundout by Ricker and another wild toss. Jennings got a 1-out free pass to Van Loo in the fifth, a stolen base, a wild pitch and scored as Clays grounder was booted for a 12-3 edge, keeping the game going. Wollenhaupt doubled down the right-field line with one out in the Delphos sixth but was left there. Jennings tried to get closer in its half against Buzard. He plunked Wittler to lead it off and also hit Wollenhorst an out later. Bankeys comebacker advanced both but they could get no farther. The Wildcats (8-6) tallied five more in the seventh. Dylan Haehn beat out an infield hit to short, got to third on a wild pitch and passed ball and scored on a single to left by Wrasman. He advanced on a wild pitch. Ricker walked. Jettinghoff grounded a sharp single into right to score Wrasman and
put Ricker at third. Kimmett walked to finish Clay on the mound and bring on Mark Metzger. He plunked Kortokrax, scoring Ricker. An out later, Buzard walked to force home Jettinghoff for a 16-3 edge. Fitch forced Buzard at second to get Kimmett home and that 17-3 bulge. Jared Hoersten led off the host seventh by drawing a walk off Kimmett, the fourth Delphos pitcher. Van Loo walked and both advanced on a wild pitch. An out hence, Metzger bounced out to score Hoersten. After Van Loo stole third, he touched the dish on a wild pitch to finish the nights scoring. Jefferson is at Ottoville 6 p.m. Friday.

CONVOY - The Parkway ACME baseball team visited Convoy Wednesday evening to take on Crestview; after second baseman Cain Pontsler led the game off with a double and later scored, it looked like it would be a good night offensively for the Panthers. Unfortunately, Pontsler would be the only Panther to cross the plate on the evening and the Knights rolled to an 11-1 run-rule victory in six innings. After Pontslers double, rightfielder Brandon Moorman (2-for-2) singled him home with two outs to give Parkway a 1-0 lead. Knight pitcher Isaiah Simerman then struck out Panther catcher Kameron Roehm. Crestview answered by plating an unearned run in the home half. Simerman struck out to open but a passed ball allowed him to take first. First baseman Damian Helm singled him home to tie the game. Simerman went back to work on the mound, not allowing another Parkway run five innings, four hits, one earned run, three strikeouts. The Knight offense broke free in the third when third baseman Nick Thomas singled and centerfielder Cam Etzler and second baseman Brock Rolsten walked to load the bases. Simerman helped his cause with a 3-run double. Simerman was later forced out on the base paths but shortstop Bryce Richardson, who was hit by a pitch, came around to score on a single by leftfielder Alec Heffner to give
Crestview a 5-1 lead. Parkway starting pitcher Jordan Strader gave way to Pontsler on the mound. Rightfielder Alex Brown walked and scored on an RBI single by Etzler to give the Knights a 6-1 lead. Moorman and Roehm each singled with one out in the top of the fourth but Moorman was caught stealing third base. A flyout then ended the Parkway threat. Crestview plated a pair of runs in the fourth. Helm and Heffner posted back-toback singles before catcher Nate Owens plated both with a 2-run single, extending the Crestview lead to 8-1. After a scoreless top of the fifth, Crestview had a chance to end the game early. Etzler and Rolsten reached with consecutive 1-out singles, Etzler scored on another Simerman RBI but the Knights could only score one run in the frame, extending their lead to 9-1. Thomas entered on the mound in the top of the sixth for Crestview and hurled a perfect inning. Heffner drew a walk in the home sixth and Owens followed with a single. Thomas helped his cause with a 2-run single to end the game an inning early. Simerman led the Knights at the plate; 2-4 with a double, a run scored and four RBIs. Owens and Thomas each added two RBIs. Strader took the loss for the Panthers: two innings, four hits and five runs (4 earned). He walked three, hit a batter and struck out three.

So the Bowl to actually do less. Might try to argue that Championship Series will go the way of the do-do not every mens match goes 5 and many womens come 2014. Everyone can now matches got the distance but that is not true either; there breathe a sigh of relief. The powers-that-be a are a lot of 5-setters. committee of JIM METCALFE 12 university presidents in the game of college football voted Tuesday to adopt a jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com 4-team playoff to determine the The only way this works national championship. They followed the rec- is if they pay by the hour or ommendations of the com- the set. When both play bestmissioners of the top footof-3, I have no problem with ball conferences. Its still not perfect that. That is equal because because no one knows who the times tend to level out. Im not sure I agree will be on this new committee assigned to make with his other statement what most definitely will be that mens tennis is ahead tough picks and exactly of the womens overall what criteria will be used yes, the top-ranked woman but it seems that a consen- could not beat the 100thranked man, for example, sus has been reached. Basically, the title game but I dont think thats the will be within the first week issue here. Sometimes, things can of the New Year. Thats a good thing because the just be plain funny in the usual stumbling block world of sports.

AGRIBUSINESS
The inspection personnel try very hard to explain not only the law but the reasons why its beneficial for their future sales, as well as what is healthy for the consuming public, Whitcomb said. Setting aside the legal aspects, theres nothing worse for sales from somebody getting sick from what they just bought from you. The local ordinances, he said, are invalid because theyre superseded by state and federal laws. That warning, though, wasnt enough to dissuade residents in Livermore and Appleton from green-lighting the same ordinance in their towns last week. Cathy Lee, who collected signatures to force a vote at Livermores town meeting, said theres a long history of home rule in Maine. Food safety issues, such as E. coli and salmonella problems, are more likely to crop up with large food corporations than with local farms. State regulations, she said, require added paperwork, more inspections and expensive upgrades that are geared toward large farms and corporations. The regulatory burden, she said, is enough to put some farms and food producers out of business. In Maine, people in Fayette voted down a proposed food self-governance ordinance on Saturday. Town Manager Mark Robinson said residents and the board of selectmen are supportive of local farms and small-scale food producers. But they realized that a local ordinance wouldnt carry any legal weight. The ordinance really did nothing other than send a message, he said. It gives the issue attention, but I would think so could an effort to amend state laws to address the issue.
Delphos FFA member Luke Wrasman, above, recently exhibited market steers and goats at the 2012 Putnam County fair. In his market steer classes he placed second and third respectively. Below: In his market goat class, Wrasman placed second also in both of his classes. One of his goats placed third overall out of all goats showed in the market show.

Tomorrows Horoscope
By Bernice Bede Osol
FRIDAY, JUNE 29, 2012 Leaping from one project to another could turn out to be a fruitless waste of time in the year ahead, so try to get a handle on things. Take plenty of time to establish a strong foundation in any enterprise that you become involved in. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- In order to gratify a personal ambition, you might unthinkingly do something at the expense of another. Consider all of the ramifications before taking action. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Most of the time youll be very pragmatic, but some little thing you take for granted could be your downfall, causing you an unexpected loss. Be detail-conscious at all times. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -When it comes to your commercial dealings, keep your guard up constantly. If youre naive, theres a chance you could link up with someone who isnt as ethical as you are. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -Regardless of their ingenuity, if your ideas are not implemented properly they wont produce the results you want. Make their execution as bright as your initial thinking. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Pay particular attention to details, especially if you are working on a group endeavor in which many folks have a finger. If someone makes a mistake, another will compound it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- It would be best not to volunteer to help someone with a project about which you know nothing. You might be the one who is held accountable if anything goes wrong. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- In order to placate your mate, you might agree to do something that goes against your better judgment. You would be far better off hammering out an agreement that you can both live with. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Just in case something disruptive should occur that interrupts your work, it would be better for you to focus on getting essential tasks done early in the day. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -You can be a pretty good manager of your funds when you put your mind to it. However, itll be up to you to prevent your whimsical impulses from gaining the upper hand. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Nothing good will come of you and a colleague pulling in opposite directions. Youll have to first straighten out your differences before you can work together. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Regardless of how juicy the news, you should check it out before passing it on as gospel. You could wrongly ruin someones reputation. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -Its good to be enthusiastic about something that you want, but check out its price first before you make a financial commitment. It might be much cheaper somewhere else.

SAFETY
Fireworks are synonymous with summer. They mark special occasions, festivals and warm-weather holidays like Independence Day. When handled by professionals, fireworks can be quite the spectacle. However, if lit by amateurs, fireworks can be very risky. Though they offer awe-inspiring views, fireworks can be dangerous. According to data collected in 2008 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, an estimated 7,000 people in the United States were treated in emergency rooms for injuries sustained from fireworks during the period of June 20 to July 20, 2008. Nearly half of all people injured were children under the age of 15. Most injuries occurred to young people under the age of 20.All types of fireworks have an inherent danger, even sparklers. Sparklers burn at more than 1,000 F and can ignite clothing very quickly. Those who take an active roll in the lighting and shooting of fireworks are more prone to injury. The most common injuries include burns and injuries to the eyes caused by cuts and foreign objects lodged in the eyes. Although fireworks injuries are common, they also are largely preventable. The following are a few safety tips aimed at helping people avoid injury when enjoying fireworks displays.
When lighting a firework, never stand with any part of your body over the firework, and always wear eye protection. Avoid storing fireworks. If you must keep them, store them in a cool, dry place, safely out of reach from children. Never throw unused fireworks in the trash. When lighting fireworks, use a smooth, flat, outdoor surface. It should be a safe distance away from homes and things that could catch fire, such as dry leaves.
