He'll also announce new strategies for filling Ohio's $1.6 billion highway funding deficit.

DOCTOR ACCUSED OF MOLESTING CHILDREN

(AP) - Authorities say a 79-year-old northeast Ohio physician is accused of molesting children since the late 1990s. Dr. Mark Shaffer Jr., of Aurora, is being held with a $100,000 bond following his arraignment in Portage County earlier this week. He was indicted Friday on two dozen related changes, including rape and gross sexual imposition. Aurora police said the investigation of Shaffer began when the U.S. Postal Inspection Service discovered child pornography being mailed to his home.

CINCINNATI CASINO

(AP) - Cincinnati's $400 million downtown casino is now set to open March 4th. Horseshoe Casino Cincinnati will be the last of four voter-approved casinos to open in the state in less than a year. Casinos in Cleveland, Toledo and Columbus opened starting in May. Construction on the two-story, 400,000-square-foot facility is in its final stages, with work expected to finish up next month.

PRESCRIPTIONS FOR NEEDY PATIENTS

(AP) - The Michigan Senate has approved two House-passed bills that would allow collection and redistribution of prescription medication. The measures would allow medical facilities to donate unused drugs for distribution to needy patients. Most other states have enacted similar laws.

HELP FOR SANDY VICTIMS

(AP) - Financial help could be coming to people on the East Coast who were ravaged by Superstorm Sandy this fall. Senate Democrats have put together a $60.4 billion disaster aid package, but time is running short on the post-election session of Congress. Money authorized under such legislation would be disbursed to New York, New Jersey and other states that sustained damage.

GOOGLE SEARCHES

(AP) - A year-end Google report on Internet searches shows that people's attention around the world wavered between the tragic and the silly. The report says millions searched the Web to find out about a royal princess, to learn about the latest iPad, or to read about a record-breaking skydiver. Google's "zeitgeist" report says Whitney Houston was the "top trending" search of the year.
