Mark Rhonemus, treasurer/CFO, noted that the figures include all grants received by the district, but does not include student activity funds. In preparation for the coming school year, the board handled personnel changes, accepting resignations and hiring staff. In the resignations to the board was one from Mark Rhonemus as treasurer/CFO, effective Jan. 1, 2015, for retirement purposes. Other resignations accepted were from Amy Carroll and Christopher Van Reeth, both special education teachers. Hired were John Gaus as a bus driver on a one year contract.

Racine awarded grant RACINE — Racine Village Council has been awarded a grant of up to $10,000 by the Buckeye Hills-Hocking Valley Regional Development office through the Governor’s 2014 Community Investment Program for the installation of new windows on the second floor of the municipal building. The project cost cannot exceed the $10,000, but as Clerk David Spencer advised, the cost of the project has been estimated to be $9,750, with the grant to fund $8,775. “Putting in the new windows, some of which are now boarded over, will make that second floor available for use by the village,” Spencer said. “We’re fortunate to get the grant because it gives us an opportunity to make that floor into an expanded business area.” Production to restart idled New Haven plant Associated Press Cheyenne McMeeken and Justin Sayre work at removing dire from Racine’s downtown sidewalks. Cleanup time in Racine village RACINE — Things are looking better in Racine village, thanks to a student summer work program supported by TANF funds. The TANF program is designed to help families achieve self-sufficiency. States receive block grants to design and operate programs that accomplish purposes of the TANF program, which includes providing assistance to families so that children can be cared for in their own homes, and reducing the dependency of parents by promoting job preparation, work and marriage. Part of Racine’s makeover includes street cleaning, clearing dirt from sidewalks and in drains, painting and general maintenance. Town employees John Holman and Jack Lyons, along with some other employees, assist the students working in the program. Much of the work in Racine has been along the parade route in preparation for the Fourth of July observance. The parade moves out from the school where it assembles at 10 a.m. Friday. It will be followed by a chicken barbecue at the firehouse at 11 a.m. Fireworks will be at 10 p.m. at Star Mill Park. The Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funds are distributed to qualifying counties and families, giving students an opportunity to gain work ethics and experience toward becoming self-sufficient. Other villages in Meigs County and surrounding areas are also utilizing these funds as well as area schools in preparation for the opening of the new school year. NEW HAVEN — Felman Production is restarting its idled plant in Mason County following an agreement with Appalachian Power on a special electricity rate for the facility. Operations will resume immediately and two of the silicomanganese plant’s three furnaces will resume full production by the end of July, Felman said in a news release. Felman had idled the plant that makes the material used in steel production and laid off more than 140 workers in 2013 because of poor market conditions. The company did not say how many workers will be recalled. “I am very pleased that we have been able to successfully restart operations. Our special rate provides us with the necessary flexibility to continue operating during periods of weak commodity prices, while ensuring that we pay more than 100 percent of variable costs over the life of the contract,” Felman Chief Executive Officer Mordechai “Motti” Korf said in a news release. The West Virginia Public Service Commission had authorized a special rate plan for the plant in April.

Ohio ends fiscal year with $800 million surplus By Julie Carr Smyth Associated Press COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio ended its budget year with an as-expected sur- Holzer is proud to announce that Mario Matos, MD, Board Certified Cardiothoracic Surgeon, has joined our team of highly skilled professionals. plus of nearly $800 million, money set aside to fund tax breaks and any unexpected Medicaid expenses resulting from the federal health care overhaul, the state budget director said Wednesday. The state beat projections for the fourth consecutive fiscal year through spending cuts and betterthan-expected tax revenues, budget director Tim Keen said. Overall, revenues lagged the previous year because of tax cuts in Republican Gov. John Kasich’s current two-year budget, he said. Besides $300 million earmarked for a Medicaid reserve, the funds will pay for $76 million in tax credits for low- and middle-income Ohioans; $91 million in accelerated income-tax cuts; and $229 million for expanded income-tax breaks for small-business owners. What’s left carries over to the new fiscal year that began Tuesday. Keen said beating projections for four years running doesn’t indicate the state’s projections under Kasich have been overoptimistic, but that the state is managing its budget properly. The surplus represents just 2.8 percent of Ohio’s $28.9 billion general revenue fund, so Keen said it’s a reasonable amount to have left over at the end of a fiscal year. “We intend to produce slightly conservative economic and revenue forecasts,” he said. “And so our revenue estimates are about 1 percent over the Plant Lunch Along the River 1st Wednesday thru October Dave Diles Park 11-1 Delivery Available 591-6095 ~ 416-2247 ~ 444-9157 From Page 1 We Still Have July 25th Cat’s Meow’s Free Movie - 6:30 Of Local Landmarks Middleport Village Hall Middleport Community Association 60517249 Civitas Media, LLC (USPS 436-840) Telephone: 740-992-2155 Dr. Matos received his Doctor of Medicine at the University of Puerto Rico School of Medicine, San Juan, Puerto Rico.

In the grand scheme of things, that’s pretty good.” Democrats, the minority party in both legislative chambers, have been critical of Republicans for holding back money that could be spent on other priorities, particularly schools and local governments. After last year’s budget surplus was announced, for instance, Senate Democrats said the $397 million could have provided an additional 88,000 children with access to high-quality preschools. In 2012, Democratic state Reps. Dan Ramos and Connie Pillich introduced legislation that would have diverted Ohio’s budget surplus to a local government job fund. The plan will enable Felman to buy electricity from Appalachian at as much as $9 million per year off its full rate. The discounted rate will be calculated each month based on the costs of raw material used in production and commodity prices. Felman and Appalachian Power filed a revised electricity contract with the PSC on Tuesday that implements the plan. Felman had said earlier that the plant had not been profitable since at least 2010 and would not reopen unless it received the special rate. Members of United Steelworkers Local 5171 approved modifications to their contract with Felman in April. Details of the changes were not released. Felman, a subsidiary of Miami-based Georgian American Alloys Inc., bought the facility from Highlanders Alloys for $20 million in 2006. Do your part!

The Daily Sentinel Page 3 AG orders Clarksburg to halt code enforcement CLARKSBURG, W.Va. (AP) — The West Virginia Attorney General’s Office has ordered Clarksburg to stop enforcing its building codes following a complaint filed by the state Fire Commission against the city’s code enforcement office. The complaint alleged that the city’s building codes are unlawful and that code enforcement officers are uncertified. The complaint also alleged that the city targeted specific property owners, and that some officials used public funds to enrich themselves and others, The Exponent Telegram reported. The complaint consolidates seven formal complaints received by the Fire Commission between Dec. 19, 2013, and May 20. Assistant Attorney General Stephen R. Connolly sent a letter dated Tuesday to the mayor ordering the city to immediately cease all building code enforcement until it adopts a current version of the state building code, or until the outcome of the complaints. City agents have retaliated against property owners since the Fire Commission filed its complaint, revoking building permits without valid stop work orders and “generally continuing to engage in violation of the state building code,” Connolly alleged in the letter. The Attorney General’s Office is the Fire Commission’s legal representative. City Manager Martin Howe declined to comment to the newspaper, saying he hadn’t received a copy of the letter yet. The Fire Commission directed the Attorney General’s Office in September 2013 to evaluate the city’s building code, based on complaints filed with the commission, the Governor’s Office, the Fire Mar- shal’s Office and the Department of Military Affairs and Public Safety, according to the commission’s complaint. The investigation found that the city adopted ordinances exceeding statutory authority and failed to comply with notification requirements stipulated in the state building code. Code enforcement officers either misrepresented their credentials or conducted inspections while uncertified, the commission’s complaint alleged. The city is still responsible for public safety, despite the ceaseand-desist order, Department of Military Affairs and Public Safety spokesman Lawrence Messina said. “The city should react by forming ordinances to comply with state law,” Messina told the newspaper. Clarksburg’s code enforcement activities are also the subject of two federal lawsuits. Free speech suit targets student code at Ohio U COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A lawsuit challenging Ohio University’s student conduct code alleges administrators violated constitutional free speech rights by telling students not to wear Tshirts bearing a sexually suggestive double entendre, though the school denies that officials made such comments. The suit against the president and two other administrators was filed Tuesday in federal court in Columbus on behalf of student Isaac Smith. He is in the campus group Students Defending Students, which provides free help for students facing the school’s judicial process. Group members at an involvement fair in August wore shirts with a phrase that could reference that assistance but also has a lewd connotation. Smith said the slogan was used by the organization in the 1970s. “It was a throwback slogan that we were bringing back,” he told The Columbus Dispatch. Members stopped wearing the shirts out of concern they might be disciplined under the conduct code, the newspaper said. A university spokeswoman said administrators were involved in discussion about W.Va. agency in contempt of mental health orders CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — A judge has ordered two West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources officials to appear at a hearing later this month after finding the agency in contempt of court orders regarding staffing shortages at the state’s two psychiatric hospitals. The DHHR also must immediately reduce the number of patients at William R. Sharpe Jr. Hospital in Weston and at Mildred-Mitchell Bateman Hospital in Huntington to alleviate understaffing until the agency submits a plan approved by the court, Kanawha County Circuit Court Judge Duke Bloom said in the order issued Tuesday, The Charleston Gazette reported. Bloom scheduled a show-cause hearing for July 15 to determine whether to impose sanctions against the DHHR. He ordered Health and Human Resources Secretary Karen Bowling and Victoria Jones, commissioner of the Bureau for Behavioral Health and Health Facilities, to appear at the hearing. “Despite the court’s orders, many of the same problems that have run rampant since 2009 persist today,” Bloom wrote. “As laid out in the court’s June 3, 2014, order, patients at the hospitals are suffering from inadequate direct care and lacking community integration opportunities. The hospitals have failed to recruit and retain direct care staff, failed to comply with court orders regarding pay raises for direct care workers, failed to offer community integration services, and have con- sequently failed to provide direct care to patients at the hospitals.” As of March 30, there were 48 vacant positions at Sharpe and 41 vacancies at Bateman.. Bloom’s order is the latest in a case originally filed in 1981 by a group of patients at the Huntington hospital. The case, known as the Hartley case, centers on the treatment of mental health patients. Allison Adler, the DHHR’s spokeswoman, told the newspaper that the order marks the first time the DHHR has been declared in contempt in the case’s history. In June, Bloom rejected proposals submitted by the DHHR to address staffing shortages, noncompetitive wages for workers and other issues at the hospitals. One proposal would have privatized the facilities, while another would make all employees contract workers. The other proposal would have made all employees classified as exempt under Division of Personnel code. “The Bureau developed and provided three options which were in compliance with the Judge’s directives,” Jones told the newspaper in a statement. “No action by the Bureau warrants a contempt order. We are continuing to provide the highest quality of care for our patients and to strive for a positive working environment for our employees.” Jones had testified at an April hearing that the DHHR has utilized contractual employees and mandatory overtime to keep the hospitals adequately staffed. whether the shirts were appropriate and whether such attire would “inhibit their efforts to serve other students,” but group members weren’t told not to wear the shirts. She said the students were never threatened with action for misconduct. “We believe our conversations represented civility in disagreement and that the university administrators acted properly as responsible educators in their handling of this situation,” spokeswoman Katie Quaranta wrote in an email to the newspaper. The lawsuit seeks to block part of the student code and also seeks monetary damages. It’s one of several lawsuits targeting campus speech this week that were filed with help from the nonprofit Foundation for Individual Rights in Education. Playpen bag used to carry body CLEVELAND (AP) — An Ohio man charged with killing a teenage girl stuffed her body in a playpen bag and carried it past her mother — even offering the woman a chance to “buy a baby thing” — before disposing of the remains in the trash, police said. Ricki D. Williams IV, 18, of Youngstown, was held without bond after a court hearing Wednesday in the June 23 death of 16-year-old Gina Burger. Investigators said he confessed to killing the girl, whose body was found in a Pennsylvania landfill two days later. Burger was stabbed inside an apartment at a complex in the Youngstown suburb of Austintown where she lived with her mother, police said. Another woman helped Williams dispose of the body under threat of death, according to police. Williams is charged with aggravated murder and kidnapping. More charges are expected, said Austintown Police Chief Robert Gavalier. It is unclear if Williams had an attorney. Jaqueline Bacher reported her daughter missing around 11 p.m. on June 23, three hours after Burger had left their apartment to borrow bags for iced tea. A police report said Bacher told officers that while she waited outside for an officer to take a missing person’s report, she saw Williams walk out of another apartment struggling to carry what appeared to be a bag used to store a portable playpen. Bacher told police that Williams asked her if she “wanted to buy a baby thing.” An officer soon arrived and Bacher did not see what Williams did with the bag, the police report said. She said she saw what appeared to be the same bag in a trash container outside the apartment complex the next day. A worker found Burger’s body June 25 at a landfill in Mercer County, Pa., about 45 miles south of Pittsburgh. On June 26, police went to the apartment of a woman Burger sometimes visited. A manager of the complex let them inside and police discovered blood stains throughout the house. Investigators found the woman who lived in the apartment the next day. She told officers she helped Williams dispose of Burger’s body in the bag for her son’s playpen after Williams threatened to kill her. The woman said Williams forced her and Burger into the woman’s bedroom and allowed them to smoke a “last cigarette,” the police report said. Williams then tried to force the woman to stab Burger. When she refused, Williams grabbed the knife and stabbed the teen once in the chest, the report said. A fugitive task force from the U.S. Marshal’s Office found Williams on Tuesday evening in Youngstown and arrested him. Kentucky gay marriage ban nixed, but no weddings yet begin issuing marriage licenses. It’s a conundrum that’s played out nationwide in the fight to legalize gay marriage: The rulings mark a significant shift as rulings in favor of gay marriage pile up, but confusion emerges as to when those marriages can begin. In Wisconsin, for example, samesex couples had a window of about a week to get married before a judge ordered officials to stop issuing them marriage licenses. And in Utah, more than 1,000 couples who rushed to marry after a judge overturned that state’s ban will have to keep waiting for many legal benefits of being married. For now, lead plaintiff Timothy Love of Louisville said he will celebrate the latest victory with his partner of 34 years, 55-year-old Larry Ysunza. “It’s a win and we’re going to win in the end. Now, the headline is ‘Love Wins,’” Love said Tuesday afternoon. He also said he anticipated a wait: “We all probably have to wait until the Supreme Court makes its decision” on gay marriage bans across the nation. In the Kentucky case, U.S. District Judge John G. Heyburn II concluded that the state’s prohibition on samesex couples being wed violates the Equal Protection Clause by treating gay couples differently than straight couples. Heyburn previously struck down Kentucky’s ban on recognizing same-sex marriages from other states and countries, but he put the implementation of that ruling on hold. “Sometimes, by upholding equal rights for a few, courts necessarily must require others to forebear some prior conduct or restrain some personal instinct,” Heyburn wrote. “Here, that would not seem to be the case. Assuring equal protection for same-sex couples does not diminish the freedom of others to any degree.” Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear said the state will appeal Heyburn’s decision. The U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals has scheduled arguments on rulings from Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky and Tennessee in a single session on Aug. 6. Although the cases are unique, each deals with whether statewide gay marriage bans violate the Constitution. It’s not yet clear if Kentucky’s appeal of the latest decision will also be heard in that session. 60516251 LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Gay marriage advocates nationwide heralded the ruling striking down deeply conservative Kentucky’s ban on same-sex marriage as a significant milestone, though matrimonies won’t begin in earnest there anytime soon. Tuesday’s ruling by a federal judge, which said Kentucky’s ban violated the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution, was put on hold because similar cases from other states are being heard by a federal appeals court. It’s unclear when Kentucky may �The Daily Sentinel OPINION Page 4 THURSDAY, JULY 3, 2014 Supreme Court says founding principles still matter The Supreme Court resoundingly established that the principles set forth in the founding of the country still apply in the digital age, when privacy has become an oftenelusive thing. By unanimously requiring police in most cases to obtain a search warrant before searching a cell phone, the nine justices affirmed the continuing Fourth Amendment right of citizens to be free of unwarranted government intrusions. They also showed a technical awareness that might surprise some observers. In writing the opinion for the court, Chief Justice John Roberts noted that 90 percent of Americans have cell phones, the average user has 33 apps and that a poll showed that “nearly three-quarters of smartphone users report being within five feet of their phones most of the time, with 12 percent admitting that they even use their phones in the shower.” And Roberts was right when he explained what that means: Cell phones are not like other objects police may find when conducting a search of a person. They have become an integral part of most people’s lives, containing vast troves of information involving likes and dislikes, lifestyles, habits, communications such as emails and phone calls and even where their users have been. In many cases, police could find more information by searching on a cell phone than by searching a home, as the court noted. “The term ‘cell phone’ is itself misleading shorthand; many of these devices are in fact minicomputers that also happen to have the capacity to be used as a telephone,” Roberts wrote. “They could just as easily be called cameras, video players, rolodexes, calendars, tape recorders, libraries, diaries, albums, televisions, maps or newspapers.” Which is all the more reason to apply the nation’s founding principles to the new age of technology. Roberts was exactly right when he wrote, “The fact that technology now allows an individual to carry such information in his hand does not make the information any less worthy of the protection for which the founders fought.” The court acknowledged there might be times when circumstances require an immediate search. True, but those circumstances should be rare and clearly defined. In most cases, police should, as Roberts said, “Get a warrant,” because as society moves further into the digital age, protecting those rights becomes ever more important.

At the IRS, stuff just happens Lois Lerner managed to contain her disappointment when she learned in 2011 that she had lost two years’ worth of emails — forever. After being told that her data was being sent to the “hard drive cemetery,” never to return, Lerner replied with philosophical equanimity, “Sometimes stuff just happens.” Yes, the IRS is incredibly susceptible to stuff happening. First, it happened when the agency singled out the applications of conservative groups for special scrutiny and delayed their applications for taxexempt status prior to the 2012 elections. Then it happened when then-IRS Commissioner Douglas Shulman went before Congress in March 2012 and denied that the targeting was taking place. It kept happening last year, when Lerner arranged to reveal the targeting via a planted question at a tax conference, and proceeded to falsely blame a few rogue employees in the Cincinnati office. It is still happening now, as the IRS failed to tell Congress about the missing Lerner emails until two weeks ago.

We aren’t talking about getting to the bottom of wrongdoing at the U.S. Board on Geographic Names or the Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization. This is the IRS, the most intrusive and demanding agency of the federal government. Yet it can’t straightforwardly cooperate with an investigation into misconduct that — once upon a time — outraged even the president of the United States. As time has passed, President Barack Obama has grown much mellower about this little unpleasantness at the IRS. He could order the White House and every other agency of government to undertake a search for emails received by Lois Lerner tomorrow. He could order the director of the FBI to undertake a forensic review of what happened to them. Instead, he is clearly hoping that the IRS scandal becomes another Benghazi, a watchword in the press for an irrational inability of Republicans to “move on.” Republican investigators will, regardless and rightly, keeping asking questions. Knowing its rotten luck, the IRS won’t be able to answer. Rich Lowry can be reached via email: comments.lowry@nationalreview.com. Today in history... Today is Thursday, July 3, the 184th day of 2014. There are 181 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On July 3, 1863, the three-day Civil War Battle of Gettysburg in Pennsylvania ended in a major victory for the North as Confederate troops failed to breach Union positions during an assault known as Pickett’s Charge. On this date: In 1608, the city of Quebec was founded by Samuel de Champlain. In 1775, Gen. George Washington took command of the Continental Army at Cambridge, Massachusetts. In 1890, Idaho became the 43rd state of the Union. In 1913, during a 50th anniversary reunion at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, Civil War veterans re-enacted Pickett’s Charge, which ended with embraces and handshakes between the former enemies. In 1938, President Franklin D. Roosevelt marked the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg by dedicating the Eternal Light Peace Memorial. In 1944, during World War II, Soviet forces recaptured Minsk from the Germans. In 1950, the first carrier strikes of the Korean War took place as the USS Valley Forge and the HMS Triumph sent fighter planes against North Korean targets.

Ruling backs nonprofits’ birth control plan WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration said Wednesday that the Supreme Court’s ruling in favor of the religious claims of Hobby Lobby and other for-profit businesses supports the government’s position in separate, ongoing disputes with religiousoriented nonprofit organizations. The administration urged the justices to deny a request from evangelical Wheaton College in Illinois that the government says would block its students and employees from free access to emergency contraceptives. The Justice Department said the Hobby Lobby decision essentially endorses the accommodation the administration already has made to faith-affiliated charities, hospitals and universities. Wednesday’s court filing was the administration’s first legal response to the Supreme Court decision on Monday that allowed Oklahoma-based Hobby Lobby Inc. and other businesses to assert religious claims to avoid covering some or all contraceptives in employee health plans. Houses of worship and other religious institutions whose primary purpose is to spread the faith are exempt from the requirement to offer birth control. The issue in the lawsuits filed by Wheaton and other nonprofit groups is different because the administration already has allowed them to opt out of paying for the objectionable contraception by telling the government that doing so would violate their religious beliefs. But they must fill out Form 700 that enables their insurers or thirdparty administrators to take on the responsibility of paying for the birth control. The employer does not have to arrange the coverage or pay for it. Insurers get reimbursed by the government through credits against fees owed under other provisions of the health care law. The fight is over completing the form, which the nonprofits say violates their religious beliefs because it forces them to participate in a system to subsidize and distribute the contraception. The justices pointed to the accommodation as an acceptable way to get contraception to women without stepping on the religious beliefs of the forprofit companies. The administration said the outcome strongly suggested that the court would come out in its favor if and when it takes on the nonprofits’ challenge. “The decision in Hobby Lobby rested on the premise that these accommodations ‘achieve all of the Government’s aims’ underlying the preventivehealth services coverage requirement ‘while providing greater respect for religious liberty,’” the Justice Department said, quoting from Justice Samuel Alito’s majority opinion. Most groups that have challenged the accommodation have won temporary reprieves from having to complete the form that government requires. On Monday, just hours after the Hobby Lobby decision, the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta granted one such request from the Alabama- based Eternal Word Television Network. Judge William H. Pryor Jr. said in a separate opinion in that case that the administration “turns a blind eye to the undisputed evidence that delivering Form 700 would violate the Network’s religious beliefs.” 60513513 THURSDAY EVENING BROADCAST 3 (WSAZ) 4 (WTAP) 6 (WSYX) 7 (WOUB) 8 (WCHS) 10 (WBNS) 11 (WVAH) 12 (WPBY) 13 (WOWK) CABLE www.mydailysentinel.com PM 6:30 WSAZ News 3 WTAP News at Six ABC 6 News at 6 Euromaxx Highlights NBC Nightly News NBC Nightly News ABC World News Nightly Business Report (N) Eyewitness ABC World News at 6 News 10TV News CBS Evening at 6 p.m. News The Big Bang Two and a Theory Half Men BBC World Nightly News: Business America Report (N) 13 News at CBS Evening 6:00 p.m. News 6 PM 6:30 THURSDAY, JULY 3 7 PM 7:30 Wheel of Jeopardy!

TV14 (5:45) �The Daily Sentinel THURSDAY, JULY 3, 2014 SPORTS mdssports@civitasmedia.com Rio Grande officially joins KIAC By Randy Payton Special to OVP George Bridges | MCT RIO GRANDE, Ohio — The University of Rio Grande officially became a member of the Kentucky Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (KIAC) on Tuesday after spending the past five seasons as part of the Mid-South Conference. “After evaluating our time in the Mid-South Conference, we came to the conclusion that the future of the athletic department at Rio Grande fits better with the mission and the goals of the institutions within the KIAC,” said Jeff Lanham, Rio Grande’s Director of Athletics. “In the end, that’s what you want out of the conference you’re aligned with. You want things to fit with what you’ve got going at your institution and we believe that the KIAC definitely works better for us.” With the addition of Rio Grande, the KIAC is now comprised of 11 schools across four states. Alice Lloyd College, Asbury University, Brescia University and Midway College are the conference members located in Kentucky, while other members include Carlow University and Point Park University (both located in Pittsburgh, Pa.), Indiana University-East, Indiana University-Southeast, Indiana University-Kokomo and Cincinnati Christian University. The KIAC currently sponsors championships in 15 different sports – Baseball, Men’s and Women’s Basketball (NAIA Division II), Men’s and Women’s Cross Country, Men’s and Women’s Golf, Men’s and Women’s Soccer, Softball, Men’s and Women’s Tennis, Men’s and Women’s Track & Field and Volleyball. Rio Grande’s entrance into the KIAC actually marks its return to the league. The school was a member of the nearly 100-year-old conference until it joined the Mid-Ohio Conference in 1971. The MOC morphed into the now-defunct America Mideast Conference in 1998 and Rio remained a member until joining the Mid-South Conference in the fall of 2009. “When we first visited the MidSouth about becoming a part of their league, we knew the level of competition was going to be very strong and that proved to be true,” said Lanham. “The Mid-South was good to us, though, in the fact that they allowed us to continue to have the opportunity to be a part of a conference and to compete. They were there for us at a time in our history when it looked like we didn’t have any place to go. They took us in and we appreciate it, but we reached a point where we had to re-evaluate and we’ve decided to move in another direction.” KIAC Commissioner Bill Melton welcomed the addition of Rio, which was approved by a unanimous vote of the league’s presidents. “I remember when Rio was a member of the KIAC in the 1960’s,” Melton said. “I played baseball at Berea College during that time and competed against Rio teams. It is good to have them back in the KIAC.” Gordon Hayward (20) of the Utah Jazz dunks the ball in front of Terrence Jones (6) of the Houston Rockets in the first half of their game on Monday, March 17, in Houston. AP Source: Free agent Hayward to meet with Cavs CLEVELAND (AP) — Gordon Hayward once named Cleveland his least favorite NBA city. He might have to change his mind. Utah’s restricted free agent small forward has scheduled a meeting with the Cavaliers, who have turned their sights to improving their roster after getting All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving to agree to a contract extension. Hayward agreed Wednesday to meet with team officials, said the person who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the Cavs are not commenting during the NBA’s 10-day free agency moratorium. The Cavs have an interest in Hayward and wanted to bring the 24-year-old in for preliminary talks, said the person. Hayward averaged 16.2 points, 5.2 assists and 5.1 rebounds last season, his fourth with the Jazz, who selected the 6-foot-8 former Butler star with the No. 9 overall pick in the 2010 draft. If the Cavs choose to sign Hayward to an offer sheet, under NBA rules the Jazz will have three days to match it. Utah has expressed a willingness to keep Hayward. Last month, the Jazz extended a qualifying offer to Hayward, making him a restricted free agent and ensuring they would be able to have a chance to retain him. Hayward made 77 starts last season. In February, Hayward was asked by jazzfanatical.com to name his favorite and least favorite NBA cities. He picked Miami and Phoenix as his preferred spots because of the warmth and sun. At the other end? “Since I’ve been in the league, probably Cleveland,” he said. “Cleveland to me is like Gotham City. It’s, like, so dreary, and just, I don’t know, and then ever since LeBron left, I mean, the fans, they’re starting to pick up a little bit more, but I remember my rookie year, there was hardly anybody there.” Cleveland opened free agency Tuesday by offering Irving a five-year, $90 million extension. Irving accepted the deal, showing his commitment to the Cavs, who in the past two weeks have hired new coach, drafted Kansas forward Andrew Wiggins first overall and now locked up their best player through the 2019-20 season. Irving can’t sign his new deal until July 10. Nielsen: 21.6 million viewers for Belgium game NEW YORK (AP) — An estimated 21.6 million people watched Belgium knock out the United States soccer team in the World Cup on U.S. television — an impressive total for a weekday afternoon that almost certainly undercounts how many people actually saw it. The Nielsen company said Wednesday that 16.5 million people watched the game on ESPN, with 5.1 million more seeing it on the Spanish-language Univision network. In addition, nearly 1.7 million people watched an online stream of the event, Nielsen said. The record U.S. television audience for soccer is the 24.7 million who saw the United States play Portugal on June 24, which tied the 2010 World Cup final between Spain and the Netherlands. The Portugal game took place on a weekend, however, when there were more people with free time available to watch. The U.S.-Belgium game started at 4 p.m. on the East Coast, earlier in other time zones, during a working day. Nielsen does not measure viewership in bars, offices or other public places. In 2010, ESPN estimated that the stated audience size for weekday World Cup games would increase by 23 percent if public viewing were taken into account. Still, Tuesday’s knockout game exceeded the average viewership for the most recent World Series and NBA Finals, events that took place during prime-time when more people were home to watch. The just-concluded NBA series where the San Antonio Spurs beat the Miami Heat averaged 15.5 million viewers, with 18 million watching the final game. Last fall’s World Series averaged 14.9 million viewers, with 19.2 million watching the Boston Red Sox beat the St. Louis Cardinals in the last game. U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann said Thursday that everyone connected with the soccer team is excited to see how the sport is reaching a U.S. audience. He could see it coming, given the popularity of the game among young people and the large crowds that turned out for the team’s sendoff games before the World Cup. “Soccer is breaking through and gets its deserved recognition without taking anything away from the other big American sports,” Klinsmann said. He said it’s important for people to identify with the way Americans played the game. “The energy and the commitment and the tempo and the aggressiveness that we played with kind of made people proud at home and surprised a lot of people outside of the United States, maybe in Brazil or in Europe,” he said. The highest overall ratings for the U.S.-Belgium game came in New York, Nielsen said. ESPN said that overall viewership for the World Cup is up 44 percent over 2010. Gerry Melendez | The State | MCT Bubba Watson walks up the 14th hole with his caddie Ted Scott during final-round action at The Masters at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Ga., Sunday, April 13. Bubba looks for title shot at new Greenbrier home WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. (AP) — To get ready for this week’s tournament, Bubba Watson simply has to walk out his front door. Watson moved his family a month ago into a home built at The Greenbrier, the resort in West Virginia that has hosted royalty and U.S. presidents — and now has its resident Bubba. “It’s nice sleeping in your own bed,” Watson said. He’ll tee it up in the Greenbrier Classic starting Thursday on the par-70 Old White TPC. Watson first learned about the stately resort from 2011 tournament winner Scott Stallings, who extolled its warm, relaxed setting. Watson played in the tournament for the first time last year, finishing eight shots behind winner Jonas Blixt. Shortly after, Watson joined the resort’s staff of professional golfers and broke ground on the new house. “We looked at what West Virginia has to offer,” he said. “You have a family atmosphere, many things to do besides golf. The mountains are nice views. So when you add that all up, it becomes an easy place to decide to move to.” When asked if he’s now a West Virginian, Watson replied, “I’m not sure. But I like it so far. So hopefully, everybody else likes me.” In addition to playing five rounds on Old White in the past two weeks, Watson tweeted pictures of himself fishing in a nearby river and pond, getting up-close looks at black bears and looking over the New Orleans Saints’ preseason training camp facility under construction at the resort. The Greenbrier has taken full advantage of Watson’s presence. On the two-lane road that winds into White Sulphur Springs, the two-time Masters champion and NBA Hall of Famer Jerry West, who also has a home at The Greenbrier, share an advertising billboard that reads “Live Where Legends Do.” “You’re talking about a legend in his sport, and then there is me,” Watson said. “Basically, it’s like I won the lotto and they put my picture up next to his. … I should be on the other side of the street facing the other way where nobody sees it.” Watson, at No. 3 in the world, is the top-ranked player in the Greenbrier Classic field. Others include No. 17 Jimmy Walker, No. 18 Steve Stricker and No. 25 Keegan Bradley. Jason Day at No. 6 withdrew with a recurring thumb injury. Walker is coming off a two-week break after the U.S. Open. He has top 5 finishes in three of the four previous Greenbrier Classics, including a runner-up finish last year. “It’s a golf course that I really like,” he said. The FedEx Cup points leader seemed more concerned about chasing after his two young sons along the massive Greenbrier hotel’s long hallways than being pursued in the standings. “I get more teased than anything about being on top,” Walker said. Among other golfers in the Greenbrier field worth keeping an eye on is Brendon Todd. The winner at the Byron Nelson Championship in May, Todd has three other top 10 finishes since then. “I think my short game’s been a little bit sharper here in the last two months and that’s probably been the difference maker,” said Todd, who will be paired with Watson in the first two rounds. Last week at Congressional, Todd was tied for the lead in the final round until a double bogey in the water on the 10th hole. He finished two strokes behind champion Justin Rose. The five-year-old tournament has had close finishes every time. It went to playoffs in 2012 and 2011, and Stuart Appleby shot 59 to win by a stroke in 2010. A year ago, Blixt came from four shots back to win by two strokes. He credits the resort’s surroundings for keeping him calm. “That Sunday a year ago here, I didn’t feel any nerves really,” he said. “It was just such a soothing kind of place. It just gives you good vibes when you get here.” Ten winners on Tour this season are entered, as well as the four past champions of the tournament and 16 former major champions, including Nick Faldo and Tom Watson, the Greenbrier’s golf pro emeritus. Among the top 12 on the final leaderboard, the four best finishers not previously eligible for the British Open will earn spots in the July 17-20 tournament at Royal Liverpool. Charges dropped for two school workers in rape case CLEVELAND (AP) — Charges have been dropped against two school employees as part of an investigation into whether other laws were broken in the rape of a 16-yearold girl by two high school football players. Strength and wrestling coach and elementary school teacher Seth Fluharty had been accused of failing to report the August 2012 rape. Elementary school principal Lynnett Gorman had been accused of failing to report rumors of a teen sex and drinking party in April 2012 unrelated to the West Virginia girl’s rape. The Ohio attorney general’s office confirmed Wednesday that misdemeanor charges of failure to report child abuse or neglect were dropped June 20 after Fluharty and Gorman met conditions of deals to avoid prosecution. Gorman had to perform 40 hours of community service at a rape crisis or victim assistance center and talk to teachers and administrators in Steubenville about the importance of reporting child abuse and neglect. She also had to encourage the school system to host a speaker from the Ohio Alliance Against Sexual Violence during Sexual Assault Awareness Month in April. Fluharty had to complete 20 community service hours at a domesticviolence shelter and attend anti-sexual violence training at Steubenville city schools. Gorman and Fluharty were among six people charged following a grand jury investigation announced March 17, 2013, the day a judge convicted the two players of rape. Attorney General Mike DeWine said it was necessary to continue investigating to ensure the community knew justice had been done. The case was dogged by allegations of a community cover-up to protect the celebrated Steubenville High School football team and a lack of cooperation. Charges against two other officials also have been resolved. Still ahead is the trial of district superintendent Mike McVey on Aug. 18 in Jefferson County Common Pleas Court. McVey has pleaded not guilty to charges including obstructing justice, tampering with evidence and making a false statement. No trial date has been set for the district’s former technology director, William Rhinaman, who has pleaded not guilty to charges of tampering with evidence, obstructing justice, obstructing official business and perjury. �Thursday, July 3, 2014 Professional Services LEGALS 60517845 Stanley Tree Trimming & Removal • Prompt and Quality Work • Reasonable Rates • Insured • Experienced • References Available Gary Stanley 740-591-8044 Please leave a message LEGALS The Rutland Township Trustees will hold a public hearing on the 2015 budget on Monday July 7 at 7:30 a.m. at the Rutland Township Garage.

By Dave Green �Page 10 The Daily Sentinel Thursday, July 3, 2014 www.mydailysentinel.com Patriots: Team owes Aaron Hernandez nothing Josie Lepe | Bay Area News Group | MCT San Diego Padres starting pitcher Tyson Ross (38) delivers against the San Francisco Giants in the second inning at AT&T Park in San Francisco, Monday, April 28. Ross 3-hits Reds, Padres get 1st sweep since ‘13 SAN DIEGO (AP) — Padres manager Bud Black had talked to Tyson Ross once or twice that it was getting to be time that the lanky right-hander threw his first career shutout. In his 55th career start, Ross got it, in dominating fashion. Ross threw a three-hitter for his first career shutout, struck out nine and walked none to help San Diego beat the Cincinnati Reds 3-0 Wednesday for its first series sweep since September. Ross got all the support he needed when Rene Rivera hit a three-run single off big league ERA leader Johnny Cueto in the first inning. “It’s special,” said the 27-yearold Ross, who’s in his second season with San Diego. “It’s the first time I’ve been able to finish. A couple of games I’ve gone eight innings and kind of ran out of gas but tonight I had enough in the tank and was able to finish.” Ross (7-8) was dominating. He retired the first 11 batters before Todd Frazier singled to left. Frazier had two of the Reds’ three hits. Only Reds batter reached second, when Brayan Pena doubled with one out in the eighth. Ross then retired the side. “I think that he really smelled the finish line, which was good,” Black said. “He’s been close a couple of times. He was there to- day. We talked just briefly after the eighth inning. There was no doubt in my mind he was going to go back out there and put up a zero. “It’s a tremendous feather in his cap,” said Black, a lefty who had 12 shutouts in 296 career big league starts. “You do it once, you can do it many more times. Good for him.” Ross said getting the complete game was due to “being efficient early. I had a lot of ground balls, a lot of outs in the first three pitches to hitters. I kept the pitch count low early and that allowed me to finish it off later.” Frazier said Ross “had a pretty good slider. I think that’s his best pitch. He kept most of us off-balance. We hit the ball hard sometimes. A couple of guys squared some up. To me, he just made a couple of mistakes. A good pitcher, when he makes mistakes, you have to take care of the business.” The Reds lost the last three games on 10-game trip after winning six of seven, including a fourgame sweep of the NL West-leading San Francisco Giants before coming to San Diego. “A frustrating team in general in that we came in playing really well and come out of it losing three straight,” manager Bryan Price said. “We had a chance to make up some ground on Milwaukee and St. Louis and we weren’t able to take advantage of it.” The Padres beat the Reds 1-0 Monday despite getting one hit, and then had a season-high 16 hits in an 8-2 victory Tuesday night. The Padres, who tied their season high with their fourth straight win, hadn’t swept a series since Sept. 6-8 against Colorado. With the bases loaded and two outs in the first, Rivera hit a blooper to the gap that hit off the heel of the glove of diving center fielder Billy Hamilton and rolled away to give San Diego a 3-0 lead. San Diego appeared to take a 4-0 lead on Seth Smith’s two-out double in the fourth, but the Reds appealed that Irving Falu missed third base. The umpires agreed, calling Falu out to end the inning. San Diego manager Bud Black argued, but the call was upheld on appeal. Ross had received only one run of support in his previous five starts, and he knocked in that run in his last start, a 2-1 loss to Arizona. Ross was 0-4 in his last five starts. Cueto (8-6) came in with the best ERA in the majors, 1.88. It rose to 1.99. He allowed three runs and seven hits in seven innings, struck out eight and walked three. BOSTON (AP) — The New England Patriots don’t owe “another penny” to former tight end Aaron Hernandez, who is charged in three killings, a team lawyer told a judge Wednesday. Attorney Andrew Phelan said the team terminated its contract with Hernandez shortly after he was charged last year in the death of semi-pro football player Odin Lloyd. He said the team does not believe it owes Hernandez a $3.25 million contract signing bonus. “The Patriots believe under the terms of that contract that they owe not another penny to Mr. Hernandez,” Phelan said during a hearing in Suffolk Superior Court on wrongful death lawsuits filed by the families of Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado, two Boston men prosecutors say were also killed by Hernandez. The families’ lawyer, William Kennedy, asked for an order barring the Patriots from paying Hernandez the $3.25 million if the team is ever ordered to do so by an arbitrator. According to the lawsuit filed by Kennedy, Hernandez has filed a grievance seeking the money, plus $82,000 he says is owed to him by the team. But Judge Bonnie MacLeod said the team is already subject to a similar order in the Lloyd case and accepted a signed stipulation from the Patriots. The agreement says The Patriots will inform the court if an arbitrator orders them to pay Hernandez and will be subject to any further orders from the court on the matter, Kennedy said. Kennedy also asked to add the Patriots organization as a defendant in the lawsuit. He said his primary goal in adding the team was to be able to get information on the terms of Hernandez’s contract with the Patriots in an effort to try to secure assets for the families in the event they are awarded damages by a jury. Each family is asking for $6 million in damages. MacLeod said she would take that request under advisement, but was leaning against adding the team as defendants. The judge said Kennedy has other ways of getting the information he is looking for from the Patriots. Hernandez’s attorney, John Fitzpatrick, argued in court papers that the attempt to prevent the team from paying Hernandez is “fundamentally unfair” because Hernandez needs the money to pay for his defense in the three killings and the civil cases. Depriving Hernandez access to his earnings “would impair his state and federal constitutional rights to counsel and to due process,” he wrote. Hernandez is accused of fatally shooting the two men in 2012 while they sat in their car at a stop light after one of them accidentally spilled a drink on Hernandez at a Boston nightclub. The 2012 shootings took place weeks before Hernandez signed a five-year, $40 million contract with the Patriots. Lloyd’s body was found in an industrial area near Hernandez’s home in North Attleborough. Hernandez has pleaded not guilty in the three killings. Arbitrator rules Saints’ Graham is a tight end NEW ORLEANS (AP) — The Saints’ Jimmy Graham and the NFL Players Association were dealt a setback Wednesday when an arbitrator ruled that he can only be considered a tight end for the purposes of his franchise tag designation. NFLPA had filed a grievance arguing that Graham was used as a wide receiver often enough to qualify for the more lucrative receiver tag. But arbitrator Stephen Burbank disagreed and now the NFLPA is reviewing his ruling, and will advise Graham on his options, which could include an appeal. Graham’s case is being closely watched around the league because it could set a precedent for negotiations involving players who fill diverse roles in their teams’ offensive or defensive schemes. For example, some outside line- backers in a 3-4 defensive scheme could argue their right to receive the higher defensive end tag. NFL franchise tags, which allow each team to keep one prized player who is due to become a free agent, were set this year at $7 million for tight ends and $12.3 million for receivers. Burbank, who is also a University of Pennsylvania law professor, found that Graham could fulfill the standard duties of a tight end when he was lined up in the slot or within 4 yards of an offensive tackle, as he was for most of his snaps. Burbank further pointed out that defenses usually accounted for Graham as a tight end, regardless of his alignment, by assigning a linebacker or safety to cover him. “Like tight ends, wide receivers and running backs often line up in the slot,” Burbank’s ruling stated. “The defense employed against any player so aligned turns on the player’s position, not his alignment, because of the physical attributes and skill sets of the players in those positions.” Burbank indicated there could be merit to the NFLPA contention that Graham cannot be considered a tight end when he does in fact line up as a wideout. However, because both sides stipulated that Graham lined up within 4 yards of an offensive tackle for nearly 55 percent of his snaps, Burbank said he did not need to address the minority of instances in which offensive formations employed by Saints coach Sean Payton placed Graham at a wider distance from the offensive line. The NFL’s collective bargaining agreement states that franchise tags should be applied according to the Do we have your attention now? Advertise your business in this space, or bigger Call us at: The Daily Sentinel 740.992.2155 position at which a player lines up for the majority of his snaps. Graham has skipped Saints offseason practices while holding out for a new, long-term contract. A favorable ruling from Burbank would have further enhanced negotiating leverage for Graham, who last season led the Saints with 86 catches for 1,215 yards and 16 touchdowns. Saints spokesman Greg Bensel said the club would have no comment on the ruling, and Sexton did not respond to a request for comment. In its statement, the NFLPA said: “We will also continue to assist Graham and his representation as necessary to help the player reach a fair long-term deal with the New Orleans Saints.” Such disputes are not frequent, but draw lots of attention because of their potential to set a precedent. Baltimore’s Terrell Suggs, the 2011 Defensive Player of the Year, argued in 2008 that he should be tagged as an end, not a linebacker. The difference back then was about $800,000. That dispute ended when Suggs signed a new long-term contract with the Ravens. He later helped them win the 2012 NFL championship. July 15 is the final day a team can sign 2014 franchise players to long-term extensions. Otherwise, they must play under their franchise tag designation for one season, after which they would be set to become free agents. Stephen M. Dowell | Orlando Sentinel | MCT United States goalkeeper Tim Howard celebrates after a 2-1 win against Nigeria in a friendly in preparation for the World Cup, at EverBank Field in Jacksonville, Fla., on Saturday, June 7. Howard’s memorable play marks US World Cup run SAO PAULO (AP) — Tim Howard left a lasting impression on Americans from coast to coast — and fans around the world, really — for his incredible, improbable saves in the loss to Belgium in extra time that sent the U.S. home from the World Cup to a country captivated. Howard is a big reason — 6-foot-3, to be exact — for the fascination. He has become a Twitter sensation in less than a day, while raising one important question before he leaves Brazil: Will the 35-year-old goalkeeper be back for the next World Cup four years from now in Russia? “When you’re in the public eye, it’s part of what you have to deal with,” Howard said Wednesday of the hype from his record-setting World Cup. “I’ve been dealing with it for a long time. It’s nice that America knows about soccer now. That’s what’s important.” Howard’s 16 saves in the 2-1 loss were the most in a World Cup game since FIFA started tracking the statistic in 2002. Someone had fun with Howard’s heroics on Wikipedia, briefly listing the star goalie as incumbent “Secretary of Defense of the United States of America.” Later, the real defense secretary, Chuck Hagel, called Howard with congratulations and a team invite to the Pentagon. A photo from Howard’s high school yearbook even began circulating, featuring the quote, “It will take a nation of millions to hold me back.” Even Belgium captain Vincent Kompany tweeted: “Two words.. TIM HOWARD #Respect #BelUSA.” That post had received 59,675 re-tweets and 45,242 favorites by early evening Wednesday. “It’s fantastic because it also shows how all the games in the World Cup were received back at home,” U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann said, “and many people watched this competition maybe more than it was four years ago in South Africa. It’s fun to see that, and he deserves every compliment for his game last night.” The hashtag ThingsTimHowardCouldSave was trending on Twitter, and fans superimposed his image into all sorts of famous scenes. There’s an outstretched Howard preventing the Titanic from sinking, and breaking up Diego Maradona’s “Hand of God” goal. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
