MEIGS COUNTY — Within just
months of each other, four women
at the three Farmers Bank branches
in Meigs County are celebrating 25
years with the company, which has
been in existence since 1904 after
being founded in Pomeroy.
Since then, the company has
branched out, with ﬁve total
branches: two in Pomeroy, one in
Tuppers Plains, one in Mason, W.Va.,
and one in Point Pleasant, W.Va.

POMEROY — The U.S.
Department of Agriculture’s
Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) now has
2016 federal conservation program funds available for Ohio
farmers and forestland owners, including two programs
geared toward Meigs County
landowners.
Farmers and forestland
owners may apply for funding under the Environmental
Quality Incentives Program
(EQIP) at any time throughout the year, but application
selections for funding are
made at speciﬁc times. The
ﬁrst 2016 application deadline
is Feb. 19.
EQIP provides ﬁnancial
assistance for conservation
management and structures
(practices), and technical
assistance to develop a conservation plan. The conservation plan and practices help
agricultural producers and
forestland owners improve
the natural resources on their
property. These practices also
beneﬁt the public by improving water quality, reducing
soil erosion, and improving
soil health, wildlife habitat
and conserving energy.
Programs geared toward
southeastern Ohio landowners include the Southern Ohio

cally staffed with two individuals who are also tasked with
booking incoming inmates.
Occasionally, a third deputy is
added to watch inmates.
Deputies in the past have
encountered people they
believe were under the inﬂuence and will not accept the
inmate into the jail facility
until they have undergone
medical inspection. In regard
to this incident, deputies
believe the drug may have
been administered after booking.
According to Browning,
two of the three inmates were
taken to the emergency room
and re-released into police
custody. The third inmate
reportedly inhaled his own
vomit during the overdose episode and required the use of a
ventilator while at the hospital.
He has reportedly since been
removed from the ventilator.
Deputies reportedly administered Nalaxone, also called
Narcan, to the inmates during
the overdose after discovering
one lying on the ﬂoor during
routine cell block inspection.

OHIO VALLEY — The subject line says “Get Protected”
and the email talks about
new features from the Social
Security Administration that
can help taxpayers monitor
their credit reports, and know
about unauthorized use of
their Social Security number.
It even cites the IRS and the
ofﬁcial-sounding “S.A.F.E Act
2015.”
It sounds real, but it’s all
made up.
It’s a phishing email to get
people to click on a scammer’s

you to a spoof site — a lookalike website set up by a scammer to trick you into entering
your personal information.
Not sure if an email is really
from the government? Here
are a couple of clues. Did the

ﬁlters to help catch phishing
scams and spam from getting

THEIR VIEW

Public’s rights
must be factor
in police videos
Although body- and dash-camera use by police is
increasing quickly, the technology is not new. Nor
are the questions about whether the average person
should have access to the real-life events captured by
the unblinking, all-seeing digital lens.
Why, then, have so few states addressed the issue?
Perhaps because the answers are far from easy.
There are legitimate concerns about balancing the
right to privacy against the public’s right to know. In
between those two lies a wide spectrum of gray that
is going to be hard to reconcile.
It’s understandable a couple wouldn’t want the spat
inside their own home becoming tomorrow’s engaging post on Facebook just because police were called
to calm things down. It’s harder to be empathetic
when someone wants to keep the video of their DUI
arrest out of reach because they would be embarrassed by its release.
On the higher end of the scale are video records
that involve allegations of police wrong-doing or use
of deadly force.
The questions about how to handle new technology and the growing use of existing technology are
numerous. At the heart of it all, though, is the reality
that everything from the most mundane footage to
the most exciting car chase all relate to the public’s
business even though they are under the control of
law enforcement agencies.
The National Conference of State Legislatures says
16 states passed laws in 2015 requiring the use of
body cameras — 20 states and the District of Columbia now have such guidelines — but just 10 address
how the release of videos should be handled by applying the particular state’s open records laws.
These videos are records, no different in that sense
from a piece of paper, and should fall under existing
laws.
But even then, there are some changes necessary
to ensure their release is handled with impartiality.
Too many states and some individual law enforcement agencies are trying to shoe-horn body-cam
and dash-cam videos into open-records exemptions.
In Iowa City, Iowa, police maintain all images and
sounds captured by such equipment are the exclusive
property of the police department. In Greensboro,
N.C., most videos are considered records of criminal
investigation and not public records. Some cities
allow people to view speciﬁc incident videos but not
copy them.
Many times, the absence of clear and detailed
guidelines that keep pace with the technology leaves
the decision-making about release with police. That
shouldn’t be the case. Law enforcement ofﬁcials by
nature view this material in a different, more subjective light. To them, it is evidence, often part of an
ongoing investigation.
A proposal by state Rep. Art Turner — a Democrat
from Chicago, a city that could provide the textbook
case of how not to handle the release of police videos
— may be a good start to maintaining a balance.
His legislation, which has been backed by more than
a dozen lawmakers from both political parties, would
remove law enforcement agencies from the decisionmaking process in some instances. Instead, videos
involving use of force by police would be subject to
release unless a judge was convinced there was compelling reason to withhold it for some period of time.
It isn’t a perfect solution and still won’t resolve
what is likely to be an increasing source of friction as
video becomes a more frequent part of police operations.
It is a start, though, and events of the past months
show that states must get ahead of the issue rather
than fall behind.

Iran deals may not herald rapid changes
By Adam Schreck
Associated Press

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates —
The lifting of crippling international
sanctions linked to Iran’s nuclear program and the ﬂurry of diplomacy that
led to the release of Americans held
by Tehran suggests a new era could be
dawning.
But anyone hoping for rapid change
is likely to be disappointed.
President Hassan Rouhani and his
team have plenty to celebrate now that
nuclear sanctions have been removed.
The moderate leader promised to
boost Iran’s struggling economy and
improve its relations with the wider
world during his 2013 campaign. The
nuclear deal achieves both aims.
He hailed the deal Sunday as a way
to open “new windows for engagement with the world,” and said fresh
investments and newly freed overseas
assets could kick-start the transformation of a country struggling with high
unemployment and inﬂation. At the
top of the shopping list are more than
100 planes from Europe’s Airbus.
It will take time for the economic
beneﬁts to trickle down to ordinary
Iranians, but the goodwill from the
deal could translate into electoral
gains for moderate and reformist
candidates in parliamentary elections
late next month. Voters will also
select members of the 88-seat Experts
Assembly, an inﬂuential clerical body
that picks a successor for the 76-yearold supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali
Khamenei, in the event of his death.
Rouhani may have pushed for the
rapid implementation of Iran’s commitments under last summer’s nuclear
deal, ensuring faster sanctions relief,
with the electoral timetable in mind.
But he still faces intense domestic
opposition from hard-liners who
believe he has given away too much
and fear Iran’s opening to the outside
world leaves it exposed to corrupting
foreign cultural inﬂuences.
In the months leading up this
past weekend’s implementation of
the nuclear deal, Iranian authorities
pursued a renewed crackdown on free
expression, jailing several writers and
artists, including award-winning ﬁlmmaker Keywan Karimi.
The November anniversary of the
1979 takeover of the U.S. Embassy in

Tehran drew thousands of demonstrators, who burned American ﬂags and
hoisted signs denouncing McDonald’s
and Starbucks.
That hard-line pushback also helps
explain paradoxes like the fact that
ofﬁcials, including Foreign Minister
Mohammad Javad Zarif, tout the
deal’s beneﬁts on Twitter even as Iranian censors block the site and other
social media services at home.
Khamenei, Iran’s top decisionmaker, has left little doubt where he
stands on the question of whether the
opening with the West should lead
to a relaxing of conservative values.
During a speech to prayer leaders
this month, he warned that “one of
the main objectives of the enemies
of Islam and the Iranian nation is to
change the culture and moralities of
people, particularly their lifestyle.”
Those hoping for greater openness in Iran will face resistance from
entrenched interests such as the powerful Revolutionary Guard, notes Cliff
Kupchan, the chairman of the Eurasia
Group. He predicts “a path of slow,
non-linear political and economic
liberalization” in the wake of the deal’s
implementation.
“Khamenei has been intent on
showing that the deal is a one-off,
not a détente,” Kupchan wrote. “And
for some years the Leader will need
the image of the ‘Great Satan’ to
legitimize his rule in the eyes of key
constituencies — the (Revolutionary
Guard), conservative clerics and the
pious poor.”
And for all the conversations U.S.
Secretary of State John Kerry and
Zarif have had over the past few years,
the fact remains that they represent
countries that do not have formal diplomatic relations.
Ofﬁcial ties were severed after
the 1979 Islamic Revolution and
the storming of the U.S. Embassy.
Wide-ranging U.S. sanctions imposed
over the years and unrelated to Iran’s
nuclear program remain in place. That
will complicate American companies’
ability to do business in the Islamic
Republic.
“Both sides would like to open a
new chapter. This does not mean they
see eye to eye,” said Fawaz Gerges,
a Middle East expert at the London
School of Economics. “This does not

mean the end to mistrust. This does
not mean the end to divergent interests in the region.”
Still, the two diplomats have forged
a working relationship that can at
times bear fruit.
Months of negotiations resulted in
the release of four Iranian-Americans
from prison, including Washington
Post journalist Jason Rezaian, in
exchange for seven Iranians held in
the U.S., six of them also dual nationals. A ﬁfth American held in Iran,
student Matthew Trevithick, was also
released.
And rapid-ﬁre diplomacy managed
to get 10 U.S. Navy sailors and their
boats released from Iranian custody
in less than 24 hours last week — an
unthinkably quick turnaround compared to past cases where foreigners
found themselves in Iranian territory.
But there are limits.
Iranian-American businessman
Siamak Namazi, who is believed to be
detained in Iran, was not part of this
weekend’s prisoner swap. Also still
missing is former FBI agent Robert
Levinson, who disappeared in Iran
in 2007 on an unauthorized CIA mission.
Meanwhile, Iran remains a staunch
backer of Syrian President Bashar
Assad, putting it at odds with the U.S.
and Sunni Arab powers including
Saudi Arabia, even as it shares the
West’s interest in defeating the Islamic
State group. In Yemen, a U.S.-supported, Saudi-led coalition is ﬁghting
to roll back gains by Iranian-backed
Shiite rebels.
And mistrust runs deep on both
sides.
Rouhani said Sunday that even with
a deal in hand, Iranians will not easily trust the U.S. because “our people
have suffered from plenty of promisebreaking,” the ofﬁcial IRNA news
agency reported.
In Washington, President Barack
Obama hailed the American prisoners’
release and the implementation of the
nuclear accord as victories for “smart”
diplomacy, declaring that “this is a
good day.”
Not long before, his administration
announced new sanctions against Iran
— this time on 11 people and entities
involved in the country’s ballistic missile program.

RedStorm women roll past Midway
By Randy Payton
For Ohio Valley Publishing

MIDWAY, Ky. — Aly Herren
hit six of the University of Rio
Grande’s season-high 11 threepoint goals and led a quartet
of double-digit scorers for the
RedStorm in an 86-59 rout of
Midway University, Tuesday
night, in Kentucky Intercollegiate Athletic Conference
women’s basketball action at
Marshall Gymnasium.
Rio Grande improved to
13-5 overall and 6-1 in conference play, winning for the ﬁfth
straight time and the ninth
time in its last 10 outings.
Midway dropped to 0-20

overall and 0-7 inside the
KIAC.
Herren, a junior guard from
Mason, Ohio, connected on six
of her 10 attempts from beyond
the arc - three in each half - and
ﬁnished with 18 points.
Rio Grande, which led from
the outset, ﬁnished 11-for-20
from three-point range as a
team, surpassing the previous single-game high of nine
trifectas established in a win
over Ohio University-Lancaster
on Nov. 20 and equaled in a
win over Indiana-Kokomo two
weeks ago.
The RedStorm also got 16
points, eight rebounds and six
assists from senior Sarah Bonar

(Hartford, OH), while senior
Harley Adler (Burton, OH) had
14 points, eight rebounds and
four of her team’s season-high
11 blocked shots.
Junior Brooke Marcum (Vinton, OH) added 10 points and
a game-high 12 rebounds in the
winning effort and junior guard
Sharday Baines (East Cleveland, OH) equaled a careerhigh with 12 of Rio’s seasonhigh-tying 27 assists.
The RedStorm led just 14-13
after Midway’s Brittany Vandeventer connected on a pair of
free throws with 1:10 left in
the opening period, but a 7-0
run over the next three minutes produced an eight-point

Josh Gordon applies to
the NFL for reinstatement
CLEVELAND (AP) — Josh Gordon
has asked the NFL for another chance.
The suspended Browns wide receiver
applied to the league for reinstatement,
a person with direct knowledge of the
process told the Associated Press on
Wednesday. Gordon, who was banned
for a year in February for multiple violations of the league’s substance abuse
policy, formally asked Commissioner
Roger Goodell to allow him back, said
the person who spoke on condition of
anonymity because of the sensitivity of
the situation.
Gordon failed an alcohol test last
year, wiping out the talented receiver’s
2015 season.
According to league policy, Gordon
could apply in writing for reinstatement
within 60 days of his suspension ending. For Gordon to be reinstated, he will
have to demonstrate sustained abstinence during his suspension.
“In support of their applications, players generally put forward veriﬁable testing records and/or submit to periodic
NFL testing during the banishment
period,” league spokesman Greg Aiello
said in an email.
Gordon will also be interviewed
by the league’s medical director and
medical adviser, who will make a recommendation to Goodell on Gordon’s reinstatement. Goodell will make a decision
within 60 days of Gordon’s application.
If he can return to the Browns, he will
be under contract for 2016 for nearly
$1.1 million and can become a restricted free agent following the season.
ESPN Cleveland was ﬁrst to report
Gordon’s application.
A big-play threat whenever he
touches the ball, Gordon made the Pro
Bowl in 2013 when he led the league
with 1,646 yards receiving despite playing just 14 games. Gordon had nine
touchdowns that season, establishing
himself as one of the league’s elite pass
catchers.

However, he hasn’t been able to stay
out of trouble.
After Gordon pleaded guilty to driving while impaired on July 5, 2014,
in Raleigh, North Carolina, he was
required to submit to alcohol testing
under the third stage of the league’s
mandated program. Gordon said he
drank on a ﬂight to Las Vegas a few
days after the 2014 season ended and
failed a subsequent test. Gordon had
assumed any restrictions ended after
the season, but he didn’t clarify that
with the league.
Gordon was initially suspended for
the 2014 season after testing positive
for marijuana. His penalty was later
reduced to 10 games after the league
and NFLPA changed their substance
abuse policies. Gordon had to sit out
two games in 2013 for a failed drug
test, which he blamed on taking prescription cough medicine.
Gordon entered the league with questions about his character after testing
positive three times for marijuana in
college. The Browns took a shot on him
anyway, surrendering a second-round
draft pick in 2013 to select him in the
supplemental draft that year.
Quiet and unassuming off the ﬁeld,
the 24-year-old Gordon’s ability to turn
an 8-yard reception into an 80-yard
TD has the Browns hoping he can stay
clean.
At his introductory news conference
last week, new coach Hue Jackson, who
worked with Pro Bowl wide receiver
A.J. Green in Cincinnati, was non-committal about his plans for Gordon.
“What I’m anxious to do is evaluate
him just like we’re going to evaluate
every player on our roster and see if
they are the right ﬁt for the Cleveland
Browns,” Jackson said. “That’s what we
have to do with every player, whether
that’s Josh Gordon to whoever the last
guy is on the roster.”

lead, which eventually grew to
13 points late in the ﬁrst half
before settling at 11 points,
35-24, by intermission.
Rio continued to stretch the
lead in the second half, taking
a 19-point cushion late in the
third quarter and enjoying a
28-point cushion inside the
ﬁnal minute of the game.
The RedStorm shot 47 percent for the game, including a
21-for-40 showing in the second half (52.5 percent) and a
12-for-17 effort (70.6 percent)
in the fourth quarter.
Rio also out-rebounded the
Eagles, 52-37, helping to offset
24 turnovers.
Jariana Gillespie scored a

game-high 24 points to pace
MU in the loss, connecting on
seven of 13 ﬁeld goal attempts
overall and ﬁve of six threepoint tries.
Gillespie was the only double-ﬁgure scorer for Midway,
which saw the rest of roster
connect on just 12 of their 48
shots (25.0 percent) and commit 25 turnovers.
Rio Grande is scheduled
to return to action on Friday,
weather permitting, when it
hosts Carlow University in
KIAC action at the Newt Oliver
Arena. Tipoff is set for 6 p.m.
Randy Payton is the Sports Information
Director at the University of Rio Grande.

Cards running game sputtering
heading into NFC showdown
TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) —
The Arizona Cardinals’
once robust running game
has all but vanished in
recent weeks. Now the
team has to try to rediscover it while facing the
punishing defense of the
Carolina Panthers.
In last Saturday’s 26-20
overtime victory over
Green Bay, the Cardinals
managed just 40 yards
rushing in 19 attempts,
an anemic average of 2.1
yards per carry.
David Johnson gained
35 yards in 15 tries, an
average of 2.3 per attempt.
Arizona’s longest running
play of the game was eight
yards.
“I think they had a good
scheme against us from
the two weeks before that
when we played them,
they were ready for us,”
Johnson said Tuesday
after the Cardinals’ walkthrough practice.
Arizona coach Bruce
Arians placed the blame
squarely on the offensive
line and not on his rookie
running back.
“Getting their (behind)
kicked up front,” Arians
said. “It’s not anything

David is doing. There’s
just not a lot of holes there
and we have to do a better
job. It’s a tough challenge
this week.”
When the Cardinals face
Carolina in the NFC championship game on Sunday,
they will go against a
defense that ranked fourth
against the run in the
regular season, allowing
88.4 yards per game.
Arians said Star Lotulelei and Kawann Short are
the best pair of defensive
tackles Arizona has seen
all season.
“The linebackers are
great,” Arians said, “but
they (the tackles) help
make them great.”
Lotulelei and Short are
great players, Cardinals
left guard Mike Iupati
said. “They’re big, fast,
strong.”
And they help make
linebacker Luke Kuechly
the great player he is.
Kuechly, Arians said,
has “got great instincts.”
“He’s really fast,” the
coach said. “What he
really is, he’s a great pass
defender. People see all
the tackles, but they do a
great job of keeping him

clean to make the tackles,”
The absence of defensive end Jared Allen, who
is doubtful for the game
due to a broken foot,
won’t have that much
impact, the Cardinals
coach said.
“They’ve got good
depth,” Arians said.
“Mario Addison gave us
problems last year and I’m
not sure there’s a drop off
there.”
Rest assured that the
Arizona offensive linemen
will hear a lot this week
about their run blocking
from Arians and offensive
coordinator Harold Goodwin, who specializes in
coaching those positions.
Iupati, named to the Pro
Bowl for the fourth time
in his six NFL seasons, is
considered one of the best
run blockers in the league.
“We’ve got to execute
better,” he said. “We’ve
got to block better, block
longer, extend your guys.
It’s no secret. … Us O-line
guys, we know what we’ve
got to do. We’ve just got
to go out there and open
holes for David or whoever’s in the backﬁeld and
protect the quarterback.”

Miller and Harris back for title game vs. Brady
DENVER (AP) —
Backslaps for the backups.
That’s all pass-rusher
Von Miller and cornerback Chris Harris Jr.
could provide the last
time the New England
Patriots played the Denver Broncos for the AFC
championship.
The backbone of Denver’s dominant defense
is ready for the rematch
Sunday.

Help Wanted General

“I was happy for my
teammates then, I’m
happy for my teammates
now,” Miller said. “But
I have a chance to go
in and affect the game.
There’s a little bit more
that I can do besides just
cheer my guys on. And I
plan to do that.”
Miller and Harris were
out with ACL injuries two
years ago in the Broncos’
26-16 win over the Patriots, then watched helplessly from the sideline
two weeks later as Seattle
destroyed Denver’s dismantled defense that was
also missing defensive
end Derek Wolfe in the
Super Bowl.
Denver’s duo was eager
to face Brady and Bill
Belichick, the best QB/
coach combo in history
with a record 22 playoff
wins, a year later when
the Broncos admittedly
overlooked the Colts and
never got that chance.
Not this time.
The top-seeded Broncos (13-4) took care of
Pittsburgh and the second-seeded Patriots (134) beat Kansas City, setting up a rematch in the
conference championship,
a 17th and likely ﬁnal
meeting between Brady

and Peyton Manning.
Instead of providing
moral support this time,
Miller and Harris get the
chance to dethrone the
defending champs.
“The Patriots come
here, we’re the No. 1
seed,” Miller said. “Exactly how we had it before
— but we get to play.”
Also sitting out that
conference championship two years ago was
Patriots tight end Rob
Gronkowski, who had an
injured knee courtesy of
then-Browns safety T.J.
Ward, now delivering
those big hits for these
Broncos.
Both Ward (ankle) and
Gronkowski (knee) were
knocked out of the game
when these teams met in
snowy Denver on Nov.
29, a game the Broncos
won 30-24 in overtime.
Also sitting out that
game was receiver Julian
Edelman, who’s back
in the Patriots’ loaded
lineup.
Both Gronkowski and
Edelman had monster
games against the Chiefs.
Edelman had 10 catches for
100 yards and Gronkowski
had 83 yards and two
touchdowns among his
seven receptions.

Miller realizes the
task is a lot tougher this
weekend than it was two
months ago.
“We wouldn’t want it
any other way,” Miller
said. “That’s the beauty
of playing in the National
Football League: We’ve
got great players going
against great players.”
Instead of watching on
crutches.
Harris displayed his
usual bravado this week
even though he’s dealing
with a deeply bruised
left shoulder that’s been
bothering him for three
weeks.
“We are a veteran
group, a veteran secondary. We have played
against Brady tons of
times. We have played
against their offense a billion times,” Harris said.
Harris drew Patriots
fans’ ire this week by
telling ESPN that if he
had to cover Gronkowski
1-on-1, he’d have to take
out the talented tight
end’s knees. Gronkowski,
who has a history of knee
injuries, responded with
an off-color retort on
Twitter. Harris, however,
won’t face Gronkowski
1-on-1. That task would
go to Ward or Aqib Talib.

Either way, Harris and
Miller are just glad they’ll
be suiting up for this one.
Miller, the second overall pick in 2012 who is
due for a huge pay raise
in the offseason, and
Harris, an undrafted free
agent whose ﬁrst bonus
was $2,000 and his second one $10 million, saw
their paths intertwined
after getting hurt in 2013.
They both had their
knees ﬁxed by Dr. James
Andrews in Pensacola,
Florida, and they became
workout partners for six
months. They reshaped
their bodies through
organic weight loss and
a determination to take
some stress off their
repaired ligaments. Harris dropped a dozen
pounds to 188 and Miller
lost more than 25 to get
down to 245.
They got their mojo
back.
Miller, who had his
right ACL repaired, has
piled up 25 sacks over
the last two seasons and
earned All-Pro honors
again in 2015. Harris,
who had his left ACL
repaired, went 35 games
without giving up a
touchdown and was
named second-team All-

Pro the last two seasons.
With Miller and
DeMarcus Ware providing the pressure and Talib
and Harris locking down
receivers, the four Pro
Bowlers teamed up to create what Steelers coach
Mike Tomlin labeled the
best pressure-cover combination in football.
One that will be tested
Sunday.
Denver led the league
in total defense, sacks
and pass defense, but
New England’s spreadand-shred offensive
philosophy along with
Brady’s ultra-quick
release is often indefensible and renders his
suspect offensive line a
non-factor.
“I’m fully conﬁdent
Chris and Talib and all
those guys are going to be
able to lock all that stuff
down and give us a little
bit of time,” Miller said.
“He’s a great quarterback.
Sometimes he doesn’t
even need an offensive
line. He knows where
he’s going to throw the
ball. He’s got great guys
that he’s throwing the ball
to. We’ve just got to take
advantage of the opportunity when it presents
itself.”
