Bob Murray, CEO of Murray Energy Corp., called on state legislators to cut West Virginia’s severance tax on coal from 5 to 2 percent during his keynote speech for the 43rd annual West Virginia Mining Symposium, held at the Charleston Civic Center, Wednesday and Thursday. “Only immediate action to reduce the state’s tax on coal extraction will help protect” the coal jobs remaining in West Virginia, Murray said, speaking to coal industry representatives gathered just blocks away from the state Capitol where legislators are in session. As keynote speaker, Murray followed West Virginia Senate President Bill Cole and Speaker of the House of Delegates Tim Armstead to the podium and called on both legislative leaders to hear his message. “Past West Virginia leadership carried the state’s ﬁnances on the back of coal,” Murray said, urging the current leadership to stop talking about the importance of coal jobs in the state and take action to save those jobs. Eliminating just the current 56-cent a ton tax on coal added on to bail out the state’s workers’ compensation fund — as has been discussed this legislative session — will not be enough to make West Virginia competitive with Indiana, Illinois and Pennsylvania, which have no severance tax, or Ohio and Maryland where the tax is less than 15 cents a ton. West Virginia’s current severance tax is $2.81 a ton, Murray said. The current 5 percent severance tax is a hardship on West Virginia coal companies and puts them at a disadvantage with other states competing for the same market, Murray said, telling those assembled that on New Year’s Eve, Murray Energy “made a $7.5 million severance tax payment to West Virginia and simultaneously was forced to lay off another 675 miners,” most at West Virginia mines. There are currently 49 bankrupt coal companies in the United States, according to Murray’s presentation, and 27 of them are in West Virginia. Speaking earlier, Cole and Armstead told those assembled of the state’s ﬁnancial woes. Cole said he fears the state budget deﬁcit in the current ﬁscal year could reach $450 million. The current estimate is at $353 million, Cole said, explaining that ﬁgure “is probably light.” West Virginia’s original deﬁcit estimate was $250 million, with a $190 million decline in severance taxes, Cole said, adding he knew it would be much greater than $250 million because if severance is down, other revenue - payroll taxes, spending, sales taxes — would also be down. The ﬁrst estimate didn’t estimate the impact of losing coal mine jobs correctly in Cole’s opinion. Murray generated discussion during his speech by presenting estimates that each coal mine job in West Virginia generates between $1.2 million (a WV Coal Association ﬁgure) and $6.3 million (a Murray Energy ﬁgure) in annual economic activity. While Murray spoke about the accuracy of his accounting ﬁrm’s numbers, many people on social media, who were following postings about the coal symposium, began challenging the ﬁgures.

The bracelets are $6 each, with $5 going towards the benefit of the Nicaraguan employees, and $1 going towards a Spanish fund that will allow Spanish students to visit the Mexican market in Columbus. Pulsera Project comes to Pomeroy By Lindsay Kriz lkriz@civitasmedia.com POMEROY — In 2009, a group of American students on a trip to Nicaragua met artists living at the foothills of the country who were gifted at weaving pulseras, which is Spanish for bracelet. However these artists had no market in which to sell their products. So when they left a few of these American students brought the bracelets with them to sell. And seven years and nearly 2.5 million bracelets later the Pulsera Project has made it to Meigs Local High School. Richelle Hecker, Meigs High School Spanish teacher, said she heard about the project from a friend a few years ago, and decided to contact the company about selling the bracelets in her classroom. The bracelets have only been on sale since Monday, Jan. 25, and as The weaving done for each bracelet is intricate but eventually can eventually become second nature to an employee, Hecker said. She also had a small assortment of bracelets made in Uganda out of recycled paper. Bracelets are being made in Honduras as well. of Thursday afternoon about $650 worth of bracelets had been sold. The bracelets will continue to be sold at Meigs Local until Feb. 21. She said she thought the timing was perfect, as some of her students are studying celebrations in Spanish-speaking countries. In these countries Valentines Day is seen as more of a day to celebrate both romantic love and friendship, and that the purchase of friendship bracelets around this time worked perfectly. Each bracelet also comes with a tag showing the portrait and signature of the person who created the item.

She also commended the enormous talent of those who weave the bracelets. “They are very intricate,” she said. “(People) see them and they look very easy to make, but the strings are long and have intricate details. However, once they get good enough, (the employees) can weave while talking to you.” Along with selling the bracelets in the classroom, Hecker said she’s entrusted certain students to sell bracelets outside of class, and even invites individuals to check in with the school during the day for bracelet purchasing, or talk to a high school student about the purchase of one. Bracelets can be purchased by cash or a check made out to Meigs Local High School. For more information visit pulseraproject.org. Reach Lindsay Kriz at 740-9922155 EXT. 2555.

She “went ﬁrecracker. When I refused, he said her way into the city, and said to the that he would tell Dad. men, ‘Come, see a man, which told me all things that I ever did. Is not this the Christ?’” Can you not imagine that one of the blind men healed by Jesus really liked to tell the part, “One thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.” The Apostle Paul must have really liked telling the story how he met the Lord on the Damascus Road. The Book of Acts records Paul telling the story at least three times. But, one can be rather sure that he really liked telling others what Christ did for him that day when he was in route to Damascus. Three stories I really like telling concerning my relationship to Jesus Christ have to do with the day I got saved, when I freed the stuck coon hound from the fallen log, and about the day that I cut my leg with the chainsaw. In each of these accountings, I really like drawing a bee-line to my Savior, Jesus Christ. Tell the story of Jesus Christ, His Death, His Resurrection. Let that be your favorite story to tell. If you have other stories you like to tell, associate them with the power and blessings that come from Jesus Christ. In the meantime, I absolutely do not remember anything about setting off ﬁrecrackers down along the run. But, apparently Chris liked telling it, and Ron liked hearing it. Some stories you just cannot live down. teacher. He might ask you to talk to someone about Jesus or stand up for what is right when it will be very hard to do so. Whatever it is that God calls you to do in this life, remember what He said to Jeremiah, “Don’t say, ‘I can’t!’” If God calls you to do something, He will reach out His hand and touch your life to give you the ability to do it. Let’s say a prayer. Dear Father, there may be some things in this life that we think we just cannot do, but we know that if You ask us to do it, You will give us the ability to do so if we will just trust in You. Even if we are afraid or unsure, help us to remember You are always with us and will help us do what You call us to do. Amen.

He derides the Law of God bring our thoughts under as being for others, or infecontrol, and be sober in rior to his own position our thinking. This disciplining of the and philosophy, and seeks to have others agree with mind is a rather imporhim, rather than bending tant thing. Just before his own will to that of the the admonition we cited Almighty. It is in pride from Romans 12:3, the Bible also says, “do not be that a man seeks to dominate others to his own will, conformed to this world, but be transformed by the rather than loving them as equals and seeking to renewing of your mind.” be their servant, as God (Romans 12:2a; NKJV) desires. From the two passages “The rich and the poor cited above, let us make have this in common: The two points about the sober-judgment God wants Lord made them both.” (Proverbs 22:2) And, “All from men. Firstly, we see from the have sinned and fallen passage from Romans, that short of the glory of God.” a sober minded judgment (Romans 3:23) When we forget these practical is humble. If we think of ourselves more highly than ideas, and start elevating we ought to, our judgment ourselves over others, seeking equality or superiis faulty, our reasoning ority with God, forgetting unsound, and the concluthat we are but the clay sions and behavior that follows will be of a similar and He alone is the potter, we have left the realm of unsound nature. We might add to this, as good sense and sobriety a side-note, that if we lack and have moved into foolish and harmful thinking. humility, we also lack the A second point to make about sober-thinking, derived from Titus 2:12, is this: it requires curbing our impulses. Speciﬁcally, it requires that we turn away from ungodliness and worldly lust. A man cannot embrace sin and at the same time embrace soundness of thought. Sin is destructive and harmful, its wages is death, and all who succumb to it will perish eternally, deprived of a place in glory (cf. Romans 3:16-17, 6:23; John 8:21, 24) Thus did Jesus warn that unless men repented, they would perish (cf. Luke 13:3, 5). If we give in to all our carnal desires, renouncing the righteous behavior of God, we have left the path of wisdom and salvation, and are trodding the sure and easy path that leads to destruction. (cf. Matthew 7:13-14) How much smarter is the man who instead renounces the things of this world and submits himself to the commands of the Lord? (cf. Matthew 7:24-27) Such a man is exhibiting both great wisdom and sound judgment.

(Math was mine!) There will be times in your life Our Bible lesson today is when God will come to you, as about a man named Jeremiah. he did to Jeremiah, and ask you One day, God spoke to Jeremiah to do something special for Him. and said, “Before you were even He may call you to be a preacher, born, I chose you to be My a missionary, or a Sunday School Strongly consider including Jesus For a moment, consider Jesus’ call for you to follow Him as Lord of your life. For a minute, consider how you’d respond if He came to you, placed His nail-scarred hand upon your shoulder and invited you to “get up” and follow Him. Would you do it? Is His eternal love for you sufﬁcient for you to desire to please Him? Is His holy majesty enough for you to bow your head before Him and say, “All right, Lord. Not my will but Your own be done in and through my life”? Imagine the disciple Matthew’s encounter with the Lord as described in Matthew 9:9. If Jesus is only the carpenter most people who’ve met Him think Him to be, the whole situation A Hunger would be laughable. “Follow Me,” Jesus says. For More And not only does this Jesus person have the Thom audacity to just waltz up to Matthew’s table Mollohan and utter what seems to be the most ridiculous invitation he’s ever heard, the Man also just turns and walks away as if He really expects Matthew to simply hop up from his table and run after Him. And yet… Matthew thinks of all he’s heard about Jesus. The famous Teacher heals sick people, gives sight to blind men, and even rebukes evil spirits with stern authority. “Yes, there’s something different about this Man,” Matthew muses. “He’s so much more than a carpenter.” He sighs as he looks at the money on the table before him piled up in neat little columns. Beside them are stacks of ledger parchment recording the taxes paid by his fellow Judeans. The gold just doesn’t seem as shiny to Matthew anymore. Its yellow surface now seems sickly and pale compared to the light that he’s seen in Jesus’ face. He thinks about the direction his own life has taken and he isn’t sure that he likes it. Every day he gets up, gets dressed, comes to work, puts up with difﬁcult bosses and faces down a hostile public. He sighs again. No, he deﬁnitely doesn’t like it anymore. What’s more, he doesn’t like who he is anymore either. His eyes slowly raise from where they have long gazed at piles of money on his little table. They now begin to focus on the ﬁgure of the only One Who holds the door to change. No, more than just a simple change. A transformation. Suddenly, Matthew’s mind is emptied of any more thought of gold. His eyes remain locked upon the Master, almost unable to look anywhere else. His body now seems to take a life of its own, separated from his previous shallowness, and slowly pushes away from his table and brings him to his feet. Unaccountably, he ﬁnds himself in pursuit of Jesus. He would never have dreamed earlier that morning that he would abruptly be chucking his career to accept an invitation to go out into the wide world alongside the One that some called “Messiah”. On the one hand, it seems like madness. Matthew’s old sensibilities feebly attempt to deter him from what he is about to do. On the other, the rays of love and glory are unmistakable in the glance of Jesus. Matthew cannot now be deterred. He picks up his pace, rushing through the crowd so that he may walk beside Jesus. Without a single glance behind him, Matthew leaves behind his old life, his old dreams, his sin and selﬁshness and starts out on a journey that will not only leave him forever a changed man, but will be used by God to change the fates of millions of others in generations to come. Later, although the scope of what is happening in his life cannot possibly be realized, he knows simply that Jesus has changed his life forever. To Matthew’s mind come the images of his old friends and associates, “tax collectors” and “sinners”. Here indeed are people only too used to dislike, rejection and failure. Do they have any hope of being accepted by God? Morally and spiritually, they were the lowest of the low, traitors to God and to their own people. But hadn’t Jesus accepted Matthew? Hadn’t Matthew’s faith in this Savior’s grace and authority to forgive sin made a new man of him? “If Jesus did it for me, maybe He will do it for them,” Matthew decides. In short order, Matthew hosts a party with Jesus as the guest of honor. Matthew’s old cronies and old colleagues show up in force. Aside from the free food, these societal rejects have a curiosity of this Teacher Who doesn’t spurn them or ﬁnd fault with them. He doesn’t need to point out the sin in their lives for they know it all too well. Instead, they come and, as Matthew had hoped, they ﬁnd grace. Oh, but then those who don’t seem to really understand grace crash the party. Matthew bites his ﬁngernails nervously, hoping against all hope that they’ll just go away. Always they look down their long and haughty noses at him and his friends, snifﬁng contemptuously as if they aren’t even worth looking upon. “Will they shame Jesus into leaving?” he tortuously wonders. “Will they embarrass my friends? Will my friends turn from God because of this? Will Jesus even forsake me?” A sick feeling emanates from his stomach and he feels himself turning pale, the blood rushing from his head to the bottom of his feet. But Jesus glances over at Matthew, gives him a quick wink, and then turns to face the prickly party-poopers. “Why do I eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?” He says, echoing their question. He smiles at them gently, grace radiating from His countenance to these who will not see it. “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick,” He answers. “I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance” (from Luke 5:30-31). His detractors blink stupidly for a moment, wondering if there’s a hidden rebuke in what had just been said to them. While they puzzle over their encounter with Jesus, trying to think of stinging rebuttals, Matthew smiles inwardly for he knows how true are the words just spoken by the Lord. Matthew had been, only a short time before, one of those who are “sick” – sick of heart, sick in their soul, sick both spiritually and morally. Only an invitation from Jesus to “get up” and follow had altered his destiny from destruction and despair to that of life and hope. Now, as our imagination returns to the here and now, I once again ask you to consider Jesus’ call for you to follow Him as Lord of your life. I again implore you to consider how you’d respond if He came to you, placed His nail-scarred hand upon your shoulder and invited you to “get up” and follow Him. Would you do it? Isn’t His love enough? Isn’t His majesty sufﬁcient? “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to His great mercy, He has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undeﬁled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you” (1 Peter 1:3-4 ESV). Bible provides keys to sober thinking There are two different Greek words which are typically rendered by the English word, “sober,” or a variation thereof. The ﬁrst of these, from the Greek, “nepho,” refers to an actual abstinence from intoxicants. It is the word used, for instance, in 1 Peter 5:8, 2 Timothy 4:5 and 1 Thessalonians 5:6. Those who sometimes argue that the Bible does not speak against the use of alcohol as a beverage would do well to consider this Greek word and what it means. But the other word translated as “sober” in English is the Greek word “sophron” and it refers not to an absence of intoxicating substances, but instead denotes the presence of a soundness of thought. That is, the ﬁrst word warns against those substances which remove our ability to think, but the second word refers to the self-control and selfdiscipline which enables us to think properly. Consider for instance this passage of Scripture: “For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned.” (Romans 12:3; ESV) Also, we read, “For the Daily Sentinel �LOCAL Daily Sentinel Friday, January 29, 2016 5 MEIGS HIGH SCHOOL SECOND NINE-WEEKS HONOR ROLL Contributed Article Brendan Payne, Randy Pendleton, Matthew Randolph, Brody Reynolds, FEC;HEO�Å�J^[�\ebbem_d]�ijkGraci Rifﬂe, Kori Robie, David Robdents were named to the Meigs High son, Caroline Roush, Jacob Roush, School Honor Roll for the second nine 7boiiW�Hem["�8h_jjWdo�Hemb[o"�;bW_dW� weeks: Scarberry, Gloria Sisson, Carter Smith, Freshman – Noah Anderson, Kacie M[ib[o�Ic_j^"�JWobeh�ImWhjp"�7i^jed� Ballard, Zachary Bartrum, Rhett LWdY["�9Whebod�MWhZ"�:Wl_Z�MWjied"� Beegle, Johnathon Betzing, Kassidy A[l_d�Oekd] Betzing, Kloey Bonecutter, Deidra Sophomore�Ä�9WdZWY[�8heYa[hj"�M_bCleland, Jade Conley, Joseph Cotliam Chapman, Olivia Davis, Paige Denterill, Madison Cremeans, Allison ney, Savannah Diehl, Paige Dill, CarCunningham, Josie Donohue, Cole men Doherty, Trenton Durst, Nathaniel :khij"�BoZ_W�;ZmWhZi"�CWZ_ied�<_[bZi"� Gearheart, Mariah Haley, Zachary HelIsaiah Fish, Hannah Fortner, Hannah ton, Madison Hendricks, David Hoff<hedjp"�7bb_ied�>Wdij_d["�;j^Wd�>Whj"� man, Marrisa Keesee, Sydney Kennedy, ;lWd�>[dd_d]jed"�CWjj^[m�@WYaied"� Rachel Kesterson, Kyle Lawson, BradAlysha King, Kole Lambert, Hayley ley Logan, Isabella McDaniel, Theodare Lathey, Kayla Lemley, Shalynn MitchCY;bheo"�Ceh]Wd�C_Y^W[b"�J^[bcW� [bb"�MoWjj�D_Y^ebied"�CWh_iiW�DeXb["� Morgan, Kaitlynn Newland, Chelsea Officials and were approved by the commissioners.

Too many missed shots, too many turnovers, and 14 missed free throws threw a wrench into the Lady Raiders’ plans on Wednesday night, as visiting Athens upset River Valley 41-34 in a Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division girls basketball makeup matchup. Athens never trailed in the contest, and Alexis McCollum clinched the win with four critical made foul shots in the ﬁnal minute and three seconds. With the loss, the Raiders fell to 8-10 — unfortunately having dropped eight of their last nine games. River Valley fell to 4-6 in the TVC-Ohio, while the Bulldogs improved to 3-6 in the league, part of 4-12. The game was postponed from Monday night due to inclement weather. The Raiders had defeated Athens 49-33 on Dec. 14 at Athens’ McAfee Gymnasium. River Valley actually almost came back and captured the win, but by an inability to make free throws and by missing many makeable opportunities, that rally fell short.

Athens itself only made 15-of-28, but Emma Harter hit 4-of-6 in the ﬁrst half, followed by McCollum making her ﬁnal four in the ﬁnal minute. In a foul-ﬁlled affair, the Raiders committed 23 and the Bulldogs 22, as Athens only made a dozen total ﬁeld goals and the Raiders 11. With both clubs in the double bonus free-throw situation for the ﬁnal minute-and-a-half, McCollum canned the second of two with 1:03 left to make it 37-33. After Tianna Qualls split a pair for River Valley with 44 seconds to play, McCollum again split a front-and-back with 36 seconds — with the second one sinking to make it 38-34. It was then Lauren Abdella’s turn at the foul line, as River Valley’s Courtney Smith missed a three-point attempt with 15 seconds to play — and Abdella converted the second of yet another two freebies. Finally, following a Raider turnover, McCollum sealed the win with two more made tosses with 4.6 seconds left. Harter, who had four ﬁeld goals over the opening three quarters, led the Bulldogs with a dozen points. Taylor Gregory, whose back- to-back threes gave Athens its largest lead (23-9) with 3:24 to play in the second stanza, netted nine along with McCollum. McCollum made both of her ﬁeld goals in the opening eight minutes. Sophie Miller muscled two ﬁeld goals and 2-of-4 free throws towards six points, while Abdella added a fourth-quarter ﬁeld goal and Katie Johnson two second-period free throws. Athens is also playing without Claire DeBruin, one of its former starters who is out with a concussion. Athens led 11-7, 26-16 and 30-23 at the end of each quarter, as the Raiders — following the ﬁrst period — came no closer than three points twice (36-33 and 37-34). The Bulldogs also withstood a second-half scoring drought, which spanned from the twominute mark of the third canto to the 5:45 point of the fourth. Athens only scored four points in the third, including a Harter basket and McCollum’s ﬁrst free throw. Gregory bookended that drought with her free throw in the third and an inside deuce in the last. The Raiders’ drought of their own, however, was worse. River Valley endured a ﬁveminute scoreless second period, in which Athens answered with eight unanswered includ- over the ﬁnal three periods. Jaden Neal — on a ﬁeld goal and 2-of-2 free throws — chipped in four, while Carly Gilmore gained a ﬁeld goal in the third.

Erin Jackson hit both of the Silver and Black’s three-pointers, en route to a team-high 11 points.

SEC seeking respect, prepares to match up with Big 12 KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — This weekend’s Big 12/SEC Challenge offers a midseason opportunity for both leagues: The Southeastern Conference has a chance to improve its national perception, while the Big 12 seeks to solidify its status as the nation’s top basketball conference. “We’ll see if stepping outside the league and playing some really good teams from a really great league can help us in our standing for pursuit of NCAA Tournament berths,” Vanderbilt coach Kevin Stallings said. Saturday’s schedule includes Vanderbilt at Texas, No. 9 West Virginia at Florida, No. 14 Iowa State at No. 5 Texas A&M, Ole Miss at Kansas State, Tennessee at TCU, Texas Tech at Arkansas, No. 1 Oklahoma at LSU, Georgia at No. 17 Baylor, No. 20 Kentucky at No. 4 Kansas and Oklahoma State at Auburn. The SEC enters the weekend with much to prove. Although Kentucky added the nation’s top recruiting class and LSU has the likely No. 1 overall draft pick in freshman Ben Simmons, the SEC could have a tough time matching last season’s total of ﬁve NCAA Tournament bids. SEC teams have a combined 13-29 record against other Power 5 schools this season (4-5 against the Big 12, 8-11 against the Atlantic Coast Conference, 0-7 against the Big Ten and 1-6 against the Pac-12). The SEC’s only Top 25 teams are Texas A&M and Kentucky, which was ranked No. 1 early in the season. Only four of the SEC’s 14 members are in the top 50 of the RPI: Texas A&M (13th), Kentucky (18th), South Carolina (26th) and Florida (28th). In the Big 12, half of the league’s 10 teams are ranked 17th or higher: Oklahoma, Kansas, West Virginia, Iowa State and Baylor. Seven Big 12 members are in the top 50 of the RPI: Oklahoma (1st), Kansas (6th), Iowa State (8th), West Virginia (16th), Texas (21st), Baylor (23rd) and Texas Tech (37th). “I think it’s maturity,” Texas Tech coach Tubby Smith said of his league’s strength. The Big 12 has “a lot of returning players. Talented returning players on most teams. Excellent coaches from top to bottom. Great coaches in this league. Those are the main ingredients. And then the depth that we have in the Big 12.” Adkins ﬁnished with a game-high 18 points and 11 assists to lead the winning effort for WVU-Tech, while Savannah Shamblin added 17 points and seven assists of her own and Alexandra Combs ﬁnished with 13 points and a team-high seven rebounds. Courtney Fisher and Julie Conway had 12 and 10 points, respectively, to complete the Golden Bears’ quintet of double-digit scorers. Adkins, Combs and Fisher shared team honors with three steals each. Rio Grande, which equaled or surpassed the 25-turnover mark for the sixth time this season by committing 26 miscues, also had ﬁve players ﬁnish in double ﬁgures. Freshman Jaida Carter (New Philadelphia, OH) led the group with 17 points, while Eagles From Page 6 with 10 rebounds, followed by Collins with seven and Rebecca Pullins with six. Parker and Alyson Bailey each had ﬁve assists for EHS, while Laura Pullins and Rebecca Pullins both recorded three assists.
