He explained that Issue 1 simply reauthorizes a program that has been in effect in Ohio for 27 years, granting local government funding for infrastructure projects. It is a State Capital Improvement Program that was first approved by voters in 1987, overwhelmingly reauthorized in 1995 and 2005, and is now up for renewal. Triplett described it as “a program that has touched every corner of Meigs County by providing funds for bridge and road improvements.” He emphasized that voters must understand that reauthorization of the State Capital Improvement Program “does not result in an increase in taxes, and that non-passage will not result in a decrease in taxes.” However, the county engineer stressed that the outcome of the statewide vote could make a difference on whether improvements continue or not in Meigs County. He said funding from the State Capital Improvement Program has benefited nearly ever resident in Meigs County, noting that it has resulted in providing more than $40 million worth of improvements, including projects in Middleport, Pomeroy, Racine, Syracuse, Tuppers Plains, Reedsville, Portland, Pageville, Harrisonville and Chester. Triplett said bridges have been replaced and roads have been paved in all 12 townships. He said the program is the principle reason that most county roads have hot mix surfaces as opposed to gravel and chip seal of 30 years ago. Issue 1 has been endorsed by the Ohio Democratic Party, the Ohio Republican Party, the Oho County Commissioners Association, all 88 of Ohio’s County Engineers, and numerous organizations and individuals all over the state. “When armed with the knowledge of the value of this program, there is no reason for anyone to vote any othSubmitted photo er way than ‘yes’ on Issue 1,” he said. Improvements to Success Road was financed with Issue 1 funds. Photo by Mindy Kearns Pete Burris is pictured in his barber shop in New Haven.

Photos by Charlene Hoelfich | Daily Sentinel As a kickoff to the National Day of Prayer, dozens of Christians holding hands surrounded the Meigs County Courthouse to pray for county officials. Prayer time for Meigs County officials By Charlene Hoeflich choeflich@civitasmedia POMEROY — The annual kickoff for Thursday’s observance of the National Day of Prayer took place Sunday afternoon at the Meigs County Courthouse. Christians holding hands surrounded the courthouse and at 3 p.m. Charlie Jones blew the shofar to announce the beginning of prayer time for officials of the county and concerns of the community. The prayer service was followed by hymn singing led by Brenda Barnhart, event chairman. Following the courthouse service, marathon Bible readings began on the parking lot stage until 8 p.m., resuming Monday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and continuing for those hours through Wednesday. Prayer posters have been placed along the riverside walkway, and Grace Episcopal Church is open for prayer both today and tomorrow from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. At 11:30 p.m. Thursday, residents will gather in front of the courthouse for a service of remembrance and prayer for the welfare of the county, state and country. The service will include several speakers addressing problems and calling for the prayers of concerned citizens, along with special music and recitations. To conclude the week-long observance, there will be a family fun night Friday at the Pomeroy parking lot from 7 to 9 p.m. It will include local entertainment, games, food and inflatables — all free and sponsored by local churches. This marks Meigs County’s 23rd annual obser- Charlie Jones blew the shofar to begin and end the vance of the National Day of Prayer. prayer service. A cut above the rest Bend Area barber retires after 67 years By Mindy Kearns Special to The Register NEW HAVEN — An iconic business in New Haven has closed its doors, not because of economic woes as so many nowadays, but due to the owner’s retirement. After cutting hair for the past 67 years, barber Howard J. “Pete” Burris has decided to lay down his scissors and razor. His last day of business was March 22. Stepping into Pete’s shop is like stepping into Floyd’s Barber Shop in Mayberry from “The Andy Griffith Show.” It was built by Pete’s father, Howard K. Burris, in 1934 and has served as a local hangout for many people over the years. Three nostalgic black and white barber chairs take up the center of the room. Mirrors line one wall, while memories marked by photos and newspaper clippings line the remaining ones. Even though Pete will be 85 years old in July, his memory is impeccable. His retirement has nothing to do with his age, or his ability to cut hair. It has more to do with knee problems he is now experiencing. Pete attended barber college in Wheeling. He can recall the day he left New Haven (March 1, 1947) and the school’s address (1420 Market St.). See BARBER | 3 Judge recuses herself from animal cruelty case By Michael Johnson michaeljohnson@civitasmedia.com GALLIPOLIS — Municipal Court Judge Margaret Evans has recused herself from hearing animal cruelty charges against former Gallia County dog warden Jean Daniels. According to court documents, the case against Daniels, who is charged with 13 counts of second-degree misdemeanor animal cruelty stemming from an investigation into the Feb. 14 deaths of 11 vaccinated dogs at the Gallia County Animal Shelter, has been placed on “time stayed” status, most likely because of Evans’ recusal and the subsequent process to find a new judge to preside over the case. The state is also wrapping up its evidence discovery phase. It is not known exactly why Evans recused herself from the case. Also charged in the case are Gallia County dog warden Paul L. Simmers, who faces 32 counts of second-degree misdemeanor animal cruelty, and his former assistant Jason Harris, who faces 12 counts of second-degree misdemeanor animal cruelty in connection with the dog deaths. All three are charged with negligently causing unnecessary pain and suffering to dogs being euthanized at the animal shelter located in the 100 block of Shawnee Lane. They allegedly didn’t follow correct procedures during the euthanasia process, which investigators said caused the animals to suffer unnecessary pain. All three have pleaded not guilty to the charges.

Black bear sightings down across Ohio By Michael Johnson michaeljohnson@civitasmedia.com GALLIPOLIS — Gallia and Meigs counties each remain among the lowest in Ohio when it comes to black bear sightings, according to a wildlife report issued by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. Statewide, black bear sightings decreased in 2013. The ODNR’s Division of Wildlife’s Waterloo Wildlife Research Station in Athens released its Black Bear Observation Report, which is used to help track, report on and summarize sightings of the animal in Ohio. According to the report, there were 158 black bear sightings across the state last year involving about 74 in- Meigs, Jackson and Lawrence counties each reported two sightings.

Holzer recognizes occupational therapist staff GALLIPOLIS — Throughout April, Holzer joins American Occupational Therapy Association to celebrate National Occupational Therapy Month and the more than 140,000 occupational therapists, occupational therapy assistants and students who work nationwide to create fuller lives for clients and their families. Occupational therapy focuses on regaining independence and activities of daily living for patients who have experienced a recent medical setback. Occupational therapy practitioners enable people of all ages to live life to its fullest by helping them promote health and prevent — or live better with — injury, illness or disability. Below are a few of the services that occupational therapy practitio- ners can provide: Helping children with mental disabilities such as autism spectrum disorder and physical disabilities such as cerebral palsy to participate fully in school and social situations. Keeping older drivers safe and independent in their vehicles by providing in-car assessments, recommendations for adaptive equipment, and appropriate self-restrictions. Offering a client who is recovering from a stroke ways to resume independence in bathing, dressing, and cooking a meal. Providing inpatient treatments, as well as outpatient therapies to individuals who are relearning or modifying skills necessary for day-to-day living. Providing support for older adults experiencing physical and cognitive changes. Evaluating an older adult’s home to promote safety and prevent falls. Helping Wounded Warriors overcome physical injuries such as limb loss, and mental challenges to reintegrate into the community. Occupational therapy practitioners have a holistic perspective, in which the focus is on adapting the environment to fit the person, who is an integral part of the therapy team. Holzer officials say they are proud to recognize staff in the Occupational Therapy department. Throughout the system, occupational therapists provide a vital service for our communities, providing care in Holzer’s outpatient, home care, long-term care and inpatient settings.

VILONIA, Ark. (AP) — The sky turned black as the funnel cloud closed in, and Maggie Caro rushed with her husband and two children to a community shelter at a Vilonia school, where they were among the last to get inside the fortified gym before the doors were shut. “They were screaming, ‘Run! Run! It’s coming!’” Caro recalled. And then all hell broke loose. The half-mile-wide tornado carved an 80-mile path of destruction through the Little Rock suburbs Sunday evening, killing at least 14 people, flattening rows of homes, shredding cars along a highway and demolishing a brand-new school before it even had a chance to open. Officials said the death toll could have been worse if residents hadn’t piled into underground storm shelters and fortified safe rooms after listening to forecasts on TV and radio, getting cellphone alerts or calls or texts from loved ones, and hearing sirens blare through their neighborhoods. Also on people’s minds: memories of a weaker tornado that smashed through on April 25, 2011. It took nearly the same path and killed at least four people. “You had people breaking down because they were reliving three years ago,” Kimber Standridge said of the scene inside the community shelter, which she said was packed with perhaps more than 100 people. Standridge and a friend had gathered up seven children they were watching and sped through the streets just minutes before the twister hit. “When they shut the doors, we knew it was on us,” Standridge said. “Everybody hunkered down. There were a lot of people doing prayer circles, holding hands and praying.” Caro and Standridge said the shelter was so solid they barely felt or heard the tornado. It was among a rash of twisters and violent storms across the Midwest and South that killed 16 people in all on Sunday. With forecasters warning of more of the same Monday across the South, a large tornado damaged homes and downed trees and power lines around Tupelo, Miss. There were no immediate reports of any injuries. Most of the dead in Ar- AP Photo Sherry Lee, left, and her daughter-in-law Amanda Lee react after finding family photos among the ruins of Sherry Lee’s home on Cemetery Street on Monday after a tornado struck the town of Vilonia, Ark., on Sunday evening. Amanda Lee lost her brother Jeff Hunter in the storm. kansas were killed in their homes in and around Vilonia, population 3,800. Firefighters on Monday searched for anyone trapped amid the piles of splintered wood and belongings strewn across yards. Hospitals took in more than 100 patients. The tornado that hit the town and nearby Mayflower was probably the nation’s strongest so far this year on the 0-to-5 EF scale, with the potential to be at least an EF3, which means winds greater than 136 mph, National Weather Service meteorologist Jeff Hood said. It wrecked cars and trucks along Interstate 40 north of Little Rock. Also among the ruins was a new $14 million intermediate school that had been set to open this fall. “It’s amazing to me how wide it was,” Mayflower Mayor Randy Holland said. “It was the loudest grinding noise I’ve ever heard.” Arkansas Gov. Mike Beebe said officials didn’t yet have a count of the missing. He said the dead included a woman who was in a safe room but was hit by debris that went through the door. “Mother nature and tornadoes, sometimes you can’t explain how that works,” Beebe said. Three people died when the tornado tore a Paron home down to the foundation. Emily Tittle, 17, said her family took shelter under the stairs of their two-story home before the twister ripped the walls away. She said her father, Rob Tittle; 20-year-old sister Tori and 14-year-old sister Rebekah were killed, and her six other siblings were taken to hospitals. In Vilonia, Raella Faulkner and Bobby McElroy picked through their demolished home, searching for family photos and a bow-and-arrow kit belonging to McElroy’s son. The two had taken refuge from the storm in an underground storm shelter about 10 feet from their home. “We were going to get married. Now I guess we’ll have to wait,” McElroy said. Homes in the South are frequently built on concrete slabs, without basements. Slabs are cheaper and easier, and the need to protect pipes from freezing by putting them below ground is not as great as it is in the North. For storm shelters, many people in the South and other parts of Tornado Alley in the nation’s midsection have holes dug into the sides of hills with a door attached to the front. But these tend to be in older homes. Hall Sellers, 53, was in the Vilonia home he built a decade ago when the warn- ings grew more intense. He had been through plenty of storms, including the twister three years ago that damaged the house, but this time he and his wife scrambled across the street to another home that he owns, an older one with an old-fashioned storm cellar. “I don’t know,” Sellers said. “I don’t usually go to the cellar, but this just felt right this time.” A neighbor wasn’t so lucky. Sellers said his body was found 300 yards away in a field. “If I’d have known he was home, I would have gotten him into the cellar,” Sellers said. Sara Sutter, 23, was at her brother’s home when the storm hit. When the home was built a year ago, the builder urged construction of a safe room. On Sunday, Sutter, her mother, father and brother huddled in the safe room until the twister passed. “Building the safe room was a great decision,” Sutter said. A separate twister killed one person in Quapaw, Okla., on Sunday evening, then crossed into Kansas, where it destroyed more than 100 homes and businesses and injured 25 people in the city of Baxter Springs. A farm building collapsed in Iowa from either a tornado or powerful straight-line winds, killing one woman. �Tuesday, April 29, 2014 www.mydailysentinel.com The Daily Sentinel Page 3 Ohio to increase lethal Discrimination suit can proceed injection drug dosage CINCINNATI (AP) — A woman with Crohn’s disease who alleges Ohio State University discriminated against her when she applied for a doctoral program because of her health can continue with a lawsuit, a federal appeals court ruled Monday. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled a lower court was wrong in dismissing the suit. A magistrate earlier found that Caitlin Sjostrand lacked sufficient evidence that would allow a jury to find the school rejected her application to a doctoral program in school psychology because of her illness, a chronic condition that causes inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The school stated that her application was rejected because she was a better fit for the counseling program, among other reasons. The three-judge panel ruled that while a jury might find the school’s stated reasons for reject- COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio said Monday it’s boosting the dosages of its lethal injection drugs even as it stands by the January execution of an inmate who made unusual snorting and gasping sounds that led to a civil rights lawsuit by his family and calls for a moratorium. The state’s new policy considerably increases the amount of the sedative used in its two-drug combination and raises the amount of the painkiller, both of which are injected simultaneously, according to a court filing. The state said it was making the changes “to allay any remaining concerns” after the last execution. The Department of Rehabilitation and Correction said its review of the Jan. 16 execution of Dennis McGuire determined he was asleep and unconscious a few minutes after the drugs were administered. “He did not experience pain, distress or air hunger after the drugs were administered or when the bodily movements and sounds occurred,” the state said. “Therefore, his execution was conducted in a constitutional manner consistent with the policy.” The state’s policy change comes 30 days before the next scheduled execution on May 28, when a man convicted of killing a Cleveland produce vendor in 1983 is set to die. McGuire’s 26-minute execution was the longest since Ohio resumed putting inmates to death in 1999. The long and fitful execution of McGuire with a thenuntested combination of chemicals brought cries of cruel and unusual punishment. A gasping, snorting McGuire took 26 minutes to die after the chemicals began flowing. McGuire’s adult children complained it amounted to torture, with the convicted killer’s son saying: “Nobody deserves to go through that.” States are in a bind for two main reasons: European By Pam Ramsey companies have cut off supplies of certain execution drugs Associated Press because of opposition to capital punishment in Europe.

The state university is represented by the Ohio attorney general’s office, which declined to comment Monday. Sjostrand, of Newark, filed the lawsuit in 2011, alleging OSU violated her rights under the federal Americans with Disabilities Act and Rehabilitation Act. A magistrate granted summary judgment to OSU last year, dismissing the case. Sjostrand alleges her two interviews with professors in the doctoral program focused mostly on her ailment. The professors questioned her at length about her ability to handle the stress and workload of the program given her disease, her lawsuit stated. The stress may aggravate the symptoms of Crohn’s, according to the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of America. The appeals court noted that Sjostrand, who graduated from OSU’s Newark campus in two and a half years, had a grade-point average tied for highest in the applicant pool and was the only one of the seven applicants rejected. OSU offered an “overarching” reason — that she was a better fit for the counseling program — for rejecting her application, and added more specific concerns related to her responses on her written application, according to the appeals court. But the record indicates that the interviews didn’t include any questions about those specific concerns, the appeals ruling stated. Sjostrand’s lawsuit seeks a judgment that she was discriminated against and unspecified punitive and compensatory damages. W.Va. judge accused of violating code with affair WVU faces $33,380 fine for waste violations messages and nude photos of herself to Carter on his county-issued telephone and computer. In a response to the charges, Wilfong admitted to performing oral sex on Carter in her office “three or less times” but denied that the acts occurred between court proceedings. She also admitted to sending the sexually explicit material to Carter. Wilfong self-reported the affair to the commission in October 2013. Carter resigned his position with the community corrections program in December 2013. The commission also alleged that Wilfong failed to disclose the relationship to the community corrections program’s board, although she is a non-voting member. She also failed to disclose the relationship in court proceedings in which Carter or his staff was called on to provide testimony or opinions regarding a de- fendant’s participation in the program. Wilfong said Carter never testified in her court during the relationship. She said the relationship did not affect her decisions about using the community corrections program or any other matters before her. “The Statement of Charges does not allege that my work on the bench was compromised by the relationship; it alleges that the appearance of the judicial system and its integrity were harmed and I admit that,” she wrote. “I now have the benefit of hindsight and others’ perspectives on this situation and I admit it was harmful to my position and the public’s perception of my position.” No litigant has requested a hearing or suggested that he or she was treated differently or unfairly as a result of the relationship with Carter, the judge said. “I trust when all of the facts are learned about this matter, people will determine that though what I did was wrong, it did not impair my ability to conduct court and do the work the citizens of Randolph County hired me to do,” Wilfong wrote. “I know that the citizens of Randolph County have to be disappointed in me, as I am disappointed, but I deserve the right to be judged fairly and impartially and I have the right to defend myself from the charges leveled.” She said the relationship with Carter was inappropriate because they each were married to other people and she takes full responsibility for her actions. The charges will be considered by the Judicial Hearing Board, which will then make a recommendation to the Supreme Court. Wilfong, a member of the hearing board, said she has resigned her seat. Barber From Page 1 Pete rode the train back home on weekends, often visiting his dad’s barber shop. One weekend, a patron of his dad’s, Fronnie Litchfield, was in a hurry to get to the livestock auction in Point Pleasant. Even though Pete wasn’t due to graduate for another month, Litchfield asked him to cut his hair, thus becoming Pete’s first paying customer. After graduation, Pete con- tinued working with his dad for 41 years. Haircuts were 35 cents when Pete started, but rose shortly after his return. “I remember people kidded dad that when I came home, he had to raise his prices,” Pete said. “When cuts went to $5, dad and I couldn’t believe it.” At the time Pete stopped cutting hair a few weeks ago, he was charging $8, which is still lower than in some surrounding areas. There were no beauty shops in the Bend Area when Pete began his career. Along with men and boys, Pete cut a lot of women’s hair, a tradition that remained until just weeks before his retirement. All of Pete’s books were kept by hand. Each customer was noted on paper, only by the price of the service that was received. Pete kept his figures daily, weekly and monthly, even tracking his tips to be reported to the IRS. Pete has cut the hair of at least five — possibly six — genera- tions of Bend Area families, although he isn’t quite sure of that. He wanted to thank all of his former customers for their patronage throughout the years. Family is important to Pete, and many of the stories he tells are about them. Not only were Pete and his father barbers, he had four uncles who also were barbers, and two aunts who were beauticians. Barbering wasn’t Pete’s only job though. He sold cars part- time for 32 years. His wife, Betty, is a retired Mason County school teacher, and they have three children, Joe, Becky and the late John. As for future plans, Pete is a little unsure. He said he might hang a sign on the front door that reads “Information,” and spend an hour or two a day at the shop. If you see his white pickup truck in the driveway, stop in. You won’t get a haircut, but you are sure to hear a good story or two. Bear From Page 1 dividual bears. The number compares with 224 sightings of an estimated 93 bears in 2012. In Gallia County, there was only one reported sighting, while Meigs, Jackson and Lawrence counties each reported two sightings. Athens County reported three total sightings. Trumbull County in northeast Ohio led the state with 22, followed by Portage County — which borders Trumbull — with 17. Ross County led southern Ohio with 12 reported black bear sightings last year. The actual number of confirmed sightings, however, was far lower. Of the two sightings in Meigs County, only one was confirmed. Lawrence County had the same results — two sightings and one confirmation. Gallia County’s lone recorded sighting was not confirmed, according to the report. Sightings are confirmed by evidence such as tracks in the ground or photos. Among the 158 statewide sightings, only 34 percent — or 54 — were confirmed by Division of Wildlife personnel. According to the report, the number of statewide black bear sightings had risen from less than 50 in 1998 to more than 200 in 2012. Among the reasons the report is compiled is to discover what might be bringing the bears into closer contact with human populations. Twenty-five of the 158 sightings involved nuisance situations such as bears raiding bird feeders, eating from garbage cans, damaging beehives, eating bird food and garbage, damaging deer feeders, uprooting plants and tearing down hanging baskets, eating from a feed bucket in a chicken coop and damaging corn crops. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, black bears in recent years have been moving into Ohio in greater numbers. To reduce the chances of an encounter, the service suggests: Storing all items with a strong odor indoors — including garbage and pet food. Cleaning barbecue grills. Picking ripe foods or vegetables immediately and removing unharvested food from the garden. Avoiding placement of food where black bears can find it as bears become accustomed to areas where human food is available. Should you encounter a bear, the Forest Service suggests the following actions: Act calm and do not run. Bears have a natural chase instinct. Warn the bear you are there. Talk in a firm but calm voice to let the bear know you are there and that you are human. Allow space between you and the bear. If you are on a path, step aside and hopefully the bear will keep on its way. Back away slowly. Raise your hands above your head to appear larger. If the bear is still following you, clap your hands, shout at the bear or throw Case From Page 1 Brenda Wright is currently serving as interim dog warden of Gallia County. The case gained a full head of steam shortly after Feb. 14, when the Ohio Society for the Prevention of Cruelty of Animals said it planned to “fully investigate” the deaths of 11 dogs at the Gallia County Ani- mal Shelter. The Ohio SPCA cited the concerns of the Friends of Gallia County’s Animals (FGCA), a local rescue group whose members said all of the dogs killed were vaccinated and in the process of being adopted. The alleged animal cruelty occurred between March 16, 2012, to Feb. 14, 2014. Each charge, according to Gallipolis City Solicitor Adam R. Salisbury — he investigated the case for misdemeanors after Gallia County Prosecutor Jeff Adkins found no felony violations — is punishable by up to 90 days in jail, a $750 fine, five years’ probation and 200 hours of community service. If convicted on all charges, Simmers faces almost eight years in jail and $24,000 in fines. Harris faces almost three years in jail and $9,000 in fines, while Daniels faces slightly more than three years in jail and $9,750 in fines. something like a stick toward it to scare it off. Leave the area, detouring around the area of black bear activity. ODNR officials say black bear attacks are rare, but that should a bear become aggressive, use any means possible to fend it off. Black bears are a stateendangered species and protected by state law. They disappeared from Ohio in the 1850s, but have moved back from neighboring states since the 1980s.

Under this umbrella known as the American dream is the pursuit of owning a home, a car, a stable paying job and the ability to provide for our food, clothing and enough cash to care for our family. Americans work one or two jobs 40 to 60 hours a week to keep this umbrella over our heads. Independence is never easy or cheap. Most Americans pay 2030 years to own a house. Many Americans never own one. Young adults are graduating from college owing $28,000 to more than $100,000 before they even begin their first real job. Americans with medical insurance often end up tens of thousands of dollars in debt due to being responsible for 20 percent of their medical bills. Almost 2 million people filed bankruptcy due to medical bills in 2012 and 56 million more Americans struggled with medical bills. Too many Americans have worked for corporations for 10 to 20 years to learn their employer is moving to Honduras, Mexico or simply closing to reorganize and reopen in another state. Traditionally, Americans have dreamed of plugging into an employer or career and working 30 years. The hope is to progress, grow and be rewarded throughout the career. When retirement age comes, then we hope to pay ourselves to do whatever we want to do which could include golfing, fishing, traveling or walking the beach. Our forefathers came here seeking independence from British rule. They wanted to enjoy religious freedom, own some land and have the freedom to carve out a living for themselves and their families. The pursuit of their dreams was tough and many died. Their sacrifices paved the way for survivors and others who would follow. They and every generation that followed handed to us the America we enjoy. It is humbling to walk the national cemetery in Arlington knowing that so many died for what we have today. Whether standing at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier or at a friend’s grave in Kentucky, who died in Vietnam, I am starkly reminded that a huge price of sacrifice has been paid for all of us in America. My mother and father worked hard for 40 years. I benefited from their labor. Numerous schoolteachers invested in me for years without a lot of pay. The spectrum of debt we all owe is wide. From the Wright Brothers, Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Jonas Salk, Martin Luther King, Bill Gates and millions of others our lives are enriched because so many have worked hard and sacrificed much. Americans have enjoyed the freedom to dream, pursue, fail and try again. All the while everything we are doing today has been made possible or a little easier because of the price paid by so many others who have given so much.

President Obama plays with fire in Ukraine Your trash, my By Sheldon Richman “The U.S. is sending about 600 ground troops to Eastern Europe … to ‘reassure’ allies there as Washington resumes its campaign of pressure on Russia over the Ukraine standoff.” — Politico How many American parents would proudly send their sons and daughters off to kill or be killed in Slovyansk or Donetsk? How many young men and women aspire to be the first American to fall in Kramatorsk? Those towns are in eastern Ukraine. President Obama says the “military option” — war, that is — is not on the table in his effort to oppose Russia in the Ukraine crisis, but can we trust him? As pressure mounts on him from America’s war hawks, what will he do when sanctions fail to persuade Russian President Vladimir Putin to acquiesce? Will the military option then find its way onto that infamous table? Obama has dispatched 600 soldiers to Poland, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia. The U.S. Navy has ships present in the Black Sea, an understandably sensitive matter for Russia, which long has had a naval base in Crimea. That may not sound like a large force, but it takes only one soldier to be a tripwire for greater U.S. involvement in this volatile region. Americans should be uneasy with this recklessness on Obama’s part. Those four former members of the defunct Soviet bloc are now members of NATO, the very active alliance established after World War II ostensibly to keep the Red Army out of Western Europe. One might have expected NATO to disappear along with the Soviet Union, but something happened on the way to the post-Cold War world. The so-called defensive alliance not only remained in existence; it moved aggressively eastward toward Russia by inducting former Soviet allies and republics as members. This expansion broke a promise that President George H.W. Bush made to former Soviet chief Mikhail Gorbachev, who was willing to live with NATO in western Europe even with newly unified Germany as a member. But that state of affairs wasn’t good enough for America’s rulers, who, like most American rulers going back to the 18th century, believed the United States is destined to rule the world. There was no chance that an alliance as useful as NATO was going to go away just because its apparent reason for being had ceased to exist. The New York Times reports that Obama “and his national security team are looking beyond the immediate conflict to forge a new longterm approach to Russia that applies an updated version of the Cold War strategy of containment.” This is bad reporting because, as noted, the U.S. leadership never ended the Cold War and never saw containment as an obsolete strategy. It would brook no rival of any kind, however friendly or regional. Since Ukraine is not (yet) a member of NATO, the U.S. government would not have the same formal obligation to intervene should a shooting The Daily Sentinel Reader Services Correction Policy Our main concern in all stories is to be accurate.

Under Article 5 of the NATO treaty, an attack on one member is regarded as an attack on all. But it also says, “If such an armed attack occurs, each of them, in exercise of the right of individual or collective self-defense … will assist the Party or Parties so attacked by taking forthwith, individually and in concert with the other Parties, such action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force, to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area.” That amounts to wiggle room, but Americans should not be comforted. Could Obama withstand the immense pressure he would face to intervene directly if open hostilities broke out? How would he handle what David Brooks of the New York Times calls Obama’s “manhood problem”? (Apparently, one is manly to the extent one is willing to risk a senseless war.) The U.S. government’s and news media’s demonization of Putin (who’s no saint) should not be allowed to overshadow the fact that America’s rulers have needlessly provoked the Russians, the coup in Kiev being just the latest example. In 1998, the architect of the postwar containment policy, George Kennan, warned that humiliating Russia by expanding NATO “is a tragic mistake.” Must we learn this the hard way?

Welton After I picked up the sticks in the yard and raked the leaves that had collected over the winter, I perused the lawn and enjoyed the various signs of spring. A few crocuses were already in bloom. The daffodils were starting to poke up. Indeed, that last little pile of snow would disappear yet this very afternoon. Then I looked toward the road. The melted snow had revealed enough litter to fill my entire garbage can. Fast food wrappers and cups; beverage cans and bottles; even a few diapers. These sights have historically caused me to sing my own satirical version of “I’m Proud to Be an American.” I have realized lately, however, that the problem is international. CNN recently ran a story about the search for Flight MH370 entitled, “Plane search hampered by ocean garbage problem.” Granted, some of that ocean garbage is due to natural disasters, but really now, can’t we do a better job? I am embarrassed to admit that, when I was a child, several times a year my family took our garbage (cans, glass, etc.) to the local dump, and tossed it onto the pile. The original owners of my current property did the same, but they just made their own pile out back in the woods. Every year I find more glass and cans. For the most part, our society has learned to do a better job. We have developed some new norms. We recycle our newspapers, cans and bottles. We pay to have our car batteries, tires and electronics recycled. We collect our old oil. My local utility company pays me to have my large appliances recycled. Nevertheless, the litter problem along our roads continues. Granted, we have developed a means of cleaning the roadsides, as generous companies and individuals adopt sections of roadway. I ask, however, why we don’t take personal responsibility for our own trash. In some cases, it is obvious that the litter is intentional. Bags full of fast food trash, half-full plastic bottles and used diapers don’t just blow out the window. In other cases, it is unintentional. Sometimes the wind does blow something from your car. The bear or raccoon rips through the bagged trash. High wind pulls papers out of your hand. Let’s honestly admit, however, that much of the litter is fully intentional. All states have enacted littering fines, even for small infractions. Sometimes these fines are as small as $20 (Colorado); sometimes as much as $30,000 (Maryland). In my state, Pennsylvania, littering from a vehicle is subject to a fine as high as $900. Based on my inspection driving down my residential road as well as driving down the interstate, I conclude that the state laws are not working. Ultimately, our roadside litter problem will not be corrected by enacting larger legal penalties. Instead, we need to foster a new national norm — a new way of thinking. Folks, it is no longer acceptable to expect someone else to clean up your litter. It is no longer acceptable to throw your trash onto someone else’s land. You do not have the right to despoil the beauty of God’s creation in the American outdoors. I say “Thank you!” to those who walk the roadsides and pick up the litter. You are doing a valuable public service for all of us. Ultimately, however, the litter needs to be prevented rather than picked up. Efficient offices learn how to handle papers and forms with fewer touches. The trash problem can easily be handled with fewer touches if we all took personal responsibility. Reduce your litter and improve the beauty of the roadsides. We may not know how to solve the ocean garbage problem, but the roadside litter problem is an easy fix. I don’t want to see your litter; I don’t want to pick up your trash next spring. �Tuesday, April 29, 2014 www.mydailysentinel.com Obituaries McDaniel and Alexis (Jason) Stock; 10 great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews.

Filing: Ex-official sought fake birth certificate COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio ex-deputy treasurer demanded that his wife get him a fake birth certificate from Pakistan for a passport and threatened to harm her when she refused, according to a request for a protective order she filed. Amer Ahmad has also been verbally and physically abusive, according to the request by Samar Ahmad, who says in the filing she is worried he will kidnap their children and take them to Pakistan. “He believes that he is not guilty and deserves a life with the children and repeatedly gets very angry if I say anything,” according to Samar Ahmad’s filing in the domestic violence division in Cook County Circuit Court in Chicago on Thursday. The filing lists three children. Amer Ahmad has tried to run over his wife and her father with a car before, the filing said. On Friday, the day after Samar Ahmad’s filing, federal prosecutors issued an arrest warrant for Amer Ahmad, who pleaded guilty in December to federal charges in a kickback scheme. The warrant was issued after prosecutors received information that he violated terms of his release. Amer Ahmad, 39, faces up to 15 years in prison for bribery and conspiracy. He was released on bail until he could be sentenced but surrendered his passport. Ahmad resigned as Chicago’s comptroller last year. A message seeking comment was left Monday with Ahmad’s attorney, Karl Schneider, and with Samar Ahmad. Schneider filed a motion March 11 asking for more time to submit objections to a pre-sentence investigation report. U.S. District Court Judge Michael Watson had given him until Tuesday. The December plea came days after Ahmad’s friend Mohammed Noure Alo, a Columbus attorney and lobbyist also charged in the scheme, pleaded guilty to a wire fraud charge. Between 2009 and January 2011, Ahmad, Alo and others conspired to use Ahmad’s role then as deputy state treasurer to direct state brokerage services to Cantonbased broker Doug Hampton, who returned more than $500,000 to them in payments, according to court documents. Ahmad and Joseph Chiavaroli, of Chicago, hid such payments using the accounts of a landscaping business in which the two had ownership interests, according to prosecutors. Hampton and Chiavaroli pleaded guilty last year. FENDERBOSCH GALLIPOLIS — Sherrie Linn Fenderbosch, 63, of Gallipolis, died Thursday, April 24, 2014, at Erlanger Medical Center in Chattanooga, Tenn.

Feds are likely to reiterate flexible policy on rates WASHINGTON (AP) — In her first weeks as Federal Reserve chair, Janet Yellen has made one thing clear: The Fed will keep all options open in deciding when to raise interest rates from record lows. Gone are the benchmarks that her predecessor, Ben Bernanke, used to try to guide investors: That by a certain point in the future or when unemployment reached a specific rate, the Fed would consider slowing its stimulus for the economy. In a speech this month, Yellen said the Fed “must respond to significant unexpected twists and turns the economy may take.” On Wednesday, when it ends a policy meeting, the Fed will likely repeat that theme and echo a point it made after Yellen’s first meeting as chair last month: That even after the job market strengthens and the Fed starts raising rates, it will likely keep rates unusually low to support a stillsubpar economy. Yellen’s message of flexibility may help convey the Fed’s willingness to respond to abrupt shifts in the economy. Yet it can also be tricky. It can leave investors uncertain and fearful of a sudden shift in the Fed’s approach to interest rates. Financial markets hate uncertainty. The Fed will be meeting in a week when the government will issue a flurry of reports on the economy — from manufacturing growth and consumer spending to home prices, consumer confidence, economic expansion and job gains. Collectively, they will help sketch a more detailed portrait of the economy. And they are among the many indicators Yellen has stressed the Fed must monitor to fully assess the economy’s health and decide when to start raising rates. That message marks a shift from the approach Bernanke took over the past five years as the Fed struggled to strengthen the economy after the Great Recession. Under his leadership, the Fed sought to be as publicly specific as possible about its intentions. And it did so by focusing primarily on the unemployment rate. In December 2012, for example, the Fed said it intended to keep its benchmark short-term rate near zero at least as long as unemployment remained above 6.5 percent. The idea was to signal roughly how long the Fed was committed to keeping borrowing rates at record lows to spur spending and economic growth. Yellen has said the unemployment rate, now 6.7 percent, overstates the health of the job market and economy and that the Fed must assess a range of barometers. She has expressed concern, for example, that a high percentage of the unemployed — 37 percent — have been out of work for six months or more and that pay is scarcely rising for people who do have jobs. Some economists say Yellen’s decision to shift away from the Bernanke Fed’s approach of providing specific guideposts for a future rate increase — its “forward guidance” — carries risks. “The whole idea of forward guidance is to project this air of clarity and confidence, and that is not happening,” said David Jones of DMJ Advisors. “This is a time when the markets need confidence in the Fed.” Yellen also faces skepticism from some fellow Fed members on inflation. The Fed favors consumer inflation of about 2 percent annually. It becomes concerned if inflation goes too much above or below that target. The inflation index the Fed monitors most closely is measuring about 1 percent. Some critics on the Fed say its efforts to keep rates super-low have elevated the risk of igniting inflation or inflating bubbles in assets like stocks or homes. Others counter that inflation remains too far below the Fed’s target and that rates should be kept historically low.

Sterling, in a 2008 file image, is being investigated by the NBA after an audio recording surfaced, with a voice attributed to Sterling, containing racist remarks. NBA announcement coming on Sterling amid fallout By Tim Reynolds Associated Press Outrage over racist comments purportedly made by embattled Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling hit a crescendo Monday, with corporations pulling their sponsorship deals with the team and coach Doc Rivers saying he believes “a very strong message” is coming from the NBA in response to the scandal. That message will come Tuesday, when NBA Commissioner Adam Silver holds a news conference in New York where he could reveal sanctions the league will impose on Sterling. A suspension of indefinite length and hefty fine — Silver can issue one of up to $1 million without approval of owners — are possible options. However, it remains unclear how far Silver’s powers can reach at this point, even though the NBA constitution gives the commissioner’s office a lot of latitude to protect the game’s best interest. Many players simply want Sterling ousted, with Lakers star Kobe Bryant tweeting he “should not continue owning the clippers.” “It needs to be handled in the right way,” Rivers said. “I don’t even know what the right way is. I have a hunch. But I don’t know.” The Clippers had Monday off, with Rivers saying he wanted his team to try and regroup mentally after a whirlwind weekend where Sterling’s alleged comments were revealed, first by TMZ and then in another recording posted on Deadspin. The NBA has not said if it was able to authenticate the tapes, but Sterling’s wife told KABCTV in Los Angeles that it was her husband on the recordings. Rivers, who has declined a chance to speak with his boss, believes Sterling is on the tape. “I can’t tell you how upset I am,” Rivers said.

Ed Suba Jr. | Akron Beacon Journal | MCT photo Newly-hired Cleveland Browns general manager Ray Farmer answers a question during a news conference at the team’s training facility on Tuesday, Feb. 11, 2014, in Cleveland. Browns GM offers few clues about draft plans BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Browns general manager Ray Farmer didn’t give up a thing. He offered some clues, provided insight and lavished praise on several players. But during a 30-minute news conference, Farmer failed to reveal any specific plans for his first NFL draft, arguably the most important selection of players for Cleveland’s flopping franchise in decades. Farmer may be a rookie GM, but he played the guessing game like a seasoned pro. Heading into next week’s draft with 10 picks, two in the first round and five of the top 83, Farmer has assets to improve the Browns. Along with Cleveland’s scouting department and coaches, he’s done his homework. Farmer’s ready. More than ready. “Let’s go,” he said. “Can we call New York and get it done?” The Browns won’t be on the clock until May 8, but the countdown to this year’s delayed draft has been unlike any in recent memory. With so much mystery at the top, and endless specula- tion and debate about the longterm prospects of high-profile players like Jadeveon Clowney and Johnny Manziel, this draft has something for everyone. “This is bigger than a lot of sporting events,” Farmer said. “It’s interesting because everybody is fired up about the NFL draft and rightfully so. This will be Christmas in May.” Cleveland’s first gift will come fourth overall, a choice many feel should be devoted to a potential franchise quarterback. Farmer was careful not to single out anyone he has in mind for the pick; Houston, St. Louis and Jacksonville will pick before Cleveland. Like he was in the pocket dodging a blitzing linebacker, Farmer smoothly danced around whether any QB is worthy of the No. 4 selection. “That’s interesting because if I say yes, people will make the assumption that we’re going to take a quarterback at four,” he said. “If I say no, they’re going to make the assertion that we’re going to pass on a quarterback. So, I’m going to plead the fifth (amendment). “We have players on our board at the right positions that we do think are worthy with that pick and it just comes down to what happens in front of you. There may be somebody there that we think is worthy and he may not be available when it’s our turn to select.” Manziel is the most polarizing player in this year’s draft. There are questions about the Texas A&M star’s size, character, durability and whether his dynamic game translates to the pro level. The Browns didn’t attend Manziel’s pro day, but worked him out recently in College Station, Texas. Manziel visited the Browns last week. “I don’t think I have any reservations about who Johnny is,” Farmer said. “We had a lot of conversations and spent a lot of time with him. He’s a good young man.” As for Manziel’s potential as a pro player, Farmer described Manziel as both “dynamic” and “different.” See BROWNS | 8 Irish hold off Point Pleasant, 4-2 By Alex Hawley ahawley@civitasmedia.com CHARLESTON, W.Va. — Doubled up on the road.

Cody Sockwell led PPHS with two hits, followed by Austen Toler and Bruce McDermitt with one hit each. Gage Buskirk and Kaleb Beckner each scored a run, while Toler and Trevor Porter each had an RBI. Buskirk had the lone stolen base for Point Pleasant. Thad Jameson, Conner Golden and Luke McKown each had two hits for CCHS, while Sam McKown and Nick Russo each had one hit.

The Wahama baseball team tallied eight runs in the sixth inning to help seal the 11-0 mercy rule victory over Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division host Miller, on Thursday in Perry County. After three scoreless innings the White Falcons (11-5, 10-1 TVC Hocking) broke through in the top of the fourth when Tyler Grimm drove in Hunted Bradley with a single. Kane Roush and Wyatt Zuspan both crossed the plate in the fifth inning to extend the lead to 3-0 lead. Wahama began the sixth inning four straight hits and eventually scored eight runs in the frame. Miller (5-8, 3-8) went away in order in the sixth and WHS took the 11-0 triumph. Hunter Bradley earned the victory for Wahama after allowing three hits in five scoreless innings, while striking out nine. Wyatt Zuspan threw the final inning and allowed one hit. Garrett Sinift suffered the loss after allowing nine runs on eight hits and two walks, while striking out five. Hunter Starlin allowed two runs on two hits and a walk, while striking out one in one inning. Tyler Grimm, Hunter Bradley and Kane Roush each had two hits, followed by Mason Hicks, Wesley Harrison, Garrett Miller and Brent Larck with one hit each. Roush, Bradley and Zuspan each scored twice, Miller, Josh Petry, Ryan Thomas, Jacob Bennett and Demetrius Serevicz each scored once. Larck led Wahama with two runs bated in, while Roush, Zuspan, Harrison, Bradley, Grimm and Nathan Redman each had an RBI. Bradley and Roush each had two stolen bases in the win. Austin Doughty led Miller with two hits, while Cole Geil and Garrett Sinift each added one. Wahama finished with 11 runs, 10 hits, two errors and eight runners left on base, while Miller had no runs, four hits, six errors and three runners left on base. The White Falcons defeated Miller on Wednesday by a count of 7-2 in Mason. Reds waiting to ‘Pretty hairy’ lightning hits Churchill hear from MLB on replay dispute LOUISVILLE, Ky.

When training resumed, Hoppertunity was the only other Derby horse to work. Trainer Bob Baffert, seeking a fourth Derby win, sent the Rebel Stakes winner out for a half-mile drill in 48 seconds. “A big relief,” Baffert said. “When I got here at 6:15, it was really coming down. I was panicking. There were ruts in the track. I was almost ready to call it off until tomorrow. Then it started to let up a little bit, but the lightning was pretty hairy out there.” Hoppertunity finished second to probable Derby favorite California Chrome in the Santa Anita Derby. Baffert has a second Derby runner in Chitu, the Sunland Derby winner. The other Derby horses that hit the track at Churchill Downs merely went for jogs in the slop. ——— NO DERBY FOR BAYERN: Baffert ruled out a Derby run for Bayern following the colt’s disqualification from first place to second in the Derby Trial on Saturday night. A victory would have given him enough points to make the cut, with the top-20 horses earning spots in the starting gate. Baffert said he would look elsewhere for another race, even if defections this week open up a spot for Bayern. “I’m happy with my horse,” he said. “At least he ran his race. He’ll get a lot out of it. It was basically a prep for something else.” Baffert would not designate the Preakness as the “something else.” “I’ll just let my horse tell me what’s next,” Baffert said. “We’re still trying to figure out this horse. He’s still a young horse and has a big future.” Bayern ran third in the Arkansas Derby, his previous start before the Derby Trial. ——— GENERAL A ROD SOLD: Starlight Stables and Skychai Racing doubled their Derby chances by purchasing General a Rod on Monday. Terms of the acquisition from J. Armando Rodriguez were not disclosed. Starlight teamed with Skychai to buy the colt that has never been worse than third in five starts. General a Rod comes into the Derby off a third-place finish in the Florida Derby. Starlight also owns Derby contender Intense Holiday, giving the partnership headed by Jack Wolf two of the 20 horses in the field. Starlight has had four previous Derby entrants, with its best finish seventh by Harlan’s Holiday in 2002. Skychai already had Harry’s Holiday in the field, so that syndicate group also has a pair of Derby runners. Skychai and primary owner Jim Shircliff have been in the Derby twice before. Hansen produced their best result: ninth in 2012. General a Rod will remain with trainer Mike Maker and Joel Rosario retains the ride. ment.

Regardless of what happens Tuesday, the saga surely will continue. And if Sterling is suspended, someone would likely have to be appointed to run the team, if even on an interim basis. Plus, there are numerous legal issues at play, including whether the recording was legally made and the matter of Sterling’s wife suing the woman purported to be on the tape with Sterling. Those issues, however, are not expected to play an immediate role in how the league decides to proceed. “Clearly, there’s things that have happened, but I don’t know what they could have done in the past,” Rivers said. “I know now that there seems to be proof that they can do something now. And so I’m not worried about the past — I’m worried about now and how we handle this. I think this is going to be handled the right way. I really have a lot of faith in Adam and the league.” Houses For Sale IF YOU HAVE A ROCKING CHAIR. WE HAVE THE FRONT PORCH FOR YOU! THE BEST VIEW IS FROM THE FRONT PORCH LOOKING IN. BRICK HOME.

It’s different. It’s not how you generally think of playing the position and being effective from the pocket, but the guy has definitely been a very good college football player.” Farmer praised Clowney and Buffalo linebacker Khalil Mack, two players expected to go in the top five. He also was effusive in his approval of Clemson wide receiver Sammy Watkins, considered the best talent in a deep class of receivers. “Big, big, really big, ginormous,” Farmer said when asked what Watkins could bring. “He’s a good football player. He’s explosive. He’s got really good hands. He’s demonstrated he can run all the routes. He can be productive. So saddle him on the opposite side of Josh Gordon and Wow!” Farmer’s endorsement of Watkins may have been a sign of his interest in him or a ploy to get another team excited enough to propose a trade. Only Farmer knows the truth. “It’s a game,” he said. “It’s a game of figuring out who you like, where you think you can get those players, and then use the ammunition we have to put ourselves in position to take the best players.” Miscellaneous Miscellaneous ANNUITY.COM Guaranteed Income For Your Retirement Avoid market risk & get guaranteed income in retirement!

Free agent quarterback Vince Young is taking a physical with the team Monday and is expected to participate in Cleveland’s minicamp this week. Browns general manager Ray Farmer said the team has been tracking Young, who hasn’t played in an NFL regular-season game since 2011 with Philadelphia. He has spent parts of the past two offseasons with Buffalo and Green Bay. Young, selected third overall by Tennessee in 2006, is 31-19 as a starter. “Our interest in Vince is that he’s been productive and he’s had success in the National Football League,” Farmer said at a predraft news conference. “We wanted to take the opportunity to get a chance to see where he was. We’ve been kind of following him through the offseason and he had been doing some things that kind David Pokress | Newsday | MCT photo of caught our eye and made us kind of Vince Young of the Philadelphia Eagles sets up to pass against the New York Giants at Met Life take note and we wanted to see what that Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, Sunday, November 20, 2011.

The Browns need to add a veteran to back up Brian Hoyer, who is penciled in as the starter heading into this season but is coming off knee surgery. Other than Hoyer, the only quarterback on Cleveland’s roster is Alex Tanney, who was signed late last season as the Browns were hit hard by injuries at quarterback. Both Young and Thigpen are mobile, and Farmer said that’s an important quality in new coordinator Kyle Shanahan’s offense. “They both are very good athletes,” Farmer said. “They both have had relative success — I know Vince you would easily say probably more than Tyler. That’s a good piece. I think Kyle would tell you that he likes a quarterback that is mobile. The offense definitely is going to require the quarterback to do different things, play outside the pocket to some degree.” The Browns own the No. 4 and No. 26 overall picks in next week’s draft, and it’s possible they could use either of them on a quarterback such as Blake Bortles, Johnny Manziel or Teddy Bridgewater. UFC: Jon Jones defends light heavyweight title BALTIMORE (AP) — Jon Jones had the Baltimore crowd roaring when he broke out the “squirrel” dance made famous by Ray Lewis. It was just the opening act of a dazzling performance. “I hope I got the dance right,” Jones said. He nailed it — then went out and punished Glover Teixeira. Jones flawlessly mixed jabs and elbows in one of the greatest fights of his career, winning a unanimous decision over Teixeira on Saturday night at UFC 172, successfully defending his light heavyweight championship for the seventh straight time. Jones (20-1) won 50-45 on all three scorecards and rolled to his 11th straight victory, the longest streak among active UFC fighters. “I think it was the best peformance of his career,” UFC President Dana White said. “I thought he never looked better than he did tonight.” He opened his pre-fight walk with the dance Lewis made his signature move. The former Bal- timore Ravens linebacker had a cageside seat and stood several times to root on Jones. Chandler Jones and Arthur Jones, his NFLplaying brothers, also attended and sat near Lewis. Arthur Jones, who plays for the Colts, was a Super Bowl champion with Lewis and the Ravens. Often booed, the fighter nicknamed “Bones” turned Baltimore into a home-cage advantage and showed Lewis that perhaps imitation was the sincerest form of battery. “It was great to have the crowd on my side again,” he said. “I practiced that dance all day today. Ray was happy.” Teixeira (22-3) ended a 20-bout winning streak that dates nine years. “To beat a guy who hasn’t lost in 20 fights, I can’t complain about that peformance,” Jones said. Jones was warned twice about eye pokes in the first two rounds and was threatened to have a point deducted if he did it again. No need. He battered and bloodied the challenger, opening a cut over Teixeira’s right eye, and sending his mouthpiece flying with a hard right. Jones took down Teixeira in the final seconds of the fourth and pounded away on his face before the horn sounded. He was in complete control in his latest dominant performance, something he vowed to do after he took a pounding the last time out against Alexander Gustafsson. Jones, one of UFC’s biggest active pay-per-view draws, pinned Teixeira against the cage several times and wore him down with body shots. White said Gustafsson and Jones will have a rematch next. “I had to answer a lot of questions after my last fight,” Jones said. “Had I lost my mojo? I answered those tonight.” Just blocks away from Camden Yards, the real heavy hitters were inside Baltimore Arena for UFC’s debut in the city. In the co-main event, Anthony “Rumble” Johnson cruised to a unanimous decision victory over former Penn State wrestler Phil Davis. Johnson fought for UFC for the first time in more than two years after he was cut once before for repeatedly failing to make weight. White welcomed Johnson back with one caveat, he would never return if he failed to make weight for the Davis bout. Johnson made weight for the 205-pound bout — and made Davis pay. He busted open Davis near his left eye with a flurry of strikes early in the first, stopped all eight takedown attempts over three rounds and won 30-27 on all three cards. Looking at White, Johnson expressed gratitude for his second chance. “Mr. Dana White, thank you for what you did,” he said. “He’s the man who changed me. He’s the man who turned me into a beast!” Earlier on the pay-per-view card, Max Halloway choked out Andre Fili in the third round and Jim Miller did the same against Yancy Medeiros in the first round. Luke Rockhold tapped out Tim Boetsch in the first round to keep UFC 172 humming along. “It’s the night of guillotines, I guess,” Miller said. With UFC bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey in her corner, Jessamyn Duke dropped a unanimous decision to Bethe Correia in the only women’s bout. Rousey, perhaps UFC’s biggest star, accompanied Duke to the octagon and shook her head in disgust after the scores were announced. “I thought I had it,” Duke said. “I knew it was going to be close, but I really thought the fight was mine.” Rousey coached Duke on “The Ultimate Fighter” and they train together with other female fighters known as “The Four Horsewomen.” Rousey’s appearance had fans standing and snapping pictures and was a highlight among the preliminary bouts. Chris Beal opened the card with a flying right knee that connected flush on Patrick Williams’ chin for a KO. “This might have been the most perfect flying knee I’ve ever seen!” White tweeted.
