The festival will feature a cook-off and free activities for all ages in the park from 3-8 p.m., Additionally, BBQ sandwiches and samples, beverages and beer will be available for attendees to purchase. “We are thrilled to bring this new event to our downtown area ,” said Amanda Crouse, executive director of GCCVB. “We have had many individuals mention to us for a few years now that Gallia County needs their own BBQ fest, so we figured it was time to give our community what they wanted.” The cook-off will feature a maximum of 10 teams that will each be provided with two pork shoulders and two briskets from R&C Packing and Custom Butchering. There will be six judges and a People’s Choice Award trophy. “What (the teams) will do is they’ll cook the pork shoulders — we’re going to have one brisket and two pork shoulders — they’ll each cook those, they’ll turn in their meat portions for judging and then the rest of the meat we’ll take out in separate warmers for each team. The public can then buy sandwiches and samples, and get a chance to turn in their vote for the People’s Choice,” said Karen McCarty, office manager and events coordinator for GCCVB. The registration fee for the cook-off is $75 per team, with all proceeds going to the $500 cash prize. All entries must be received by Aug. 22. Any excess money the festival makes will go back into GCCVB’s general funds for future events, Crouse said. Entertainment will include music, face painting by local artist Jody Rife from 5-7 p.m., and live music from local artist Paul “Bub” Williams. “We’re also asking community organizations, civic organizations, to sign up and do membership drives, sort of as a ‘get to know your community’ type thing,” Crouse said. Organizations interested in participating are asked to register with GCCVB before the festival. Groups must provide their own tables, tents and chairs. Sales of concessions are not allowed. There are also different sponsor levels available for those interested: “Pit Master” for $1,000 and over, which includes two samples from each entry, two souvenir cups, an entry for a chance to be one of the six judges and a display for your establishment’s banner. The “Boss Hog” sponsorship level, for $500-$999, includes one sample from each entry, two souvenir cups and a display for your banner, and the “Raging Bull” sponsorship level, for $250-$499, includes two souvenir cups and a display for your banner.

Member SIPC. Kroger restricts pseudoephedrine sales in W.Va. CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Supermarket chain Kroger is tightening monthly purchase limits of cold medications that contain pseudoephedrine at its West Virginia stores. The new limits at Kroger’s 40 pharmacies in the state will be effective in the coming weeks and are more restrictive than those under West Virginia law. Kroger didn’t follow the lead of some competitors that barred sales of cold medications that have pseudoephedrine as their only active ingredient. “Single-ingredient (pseudoephedrine) is a legal and effective medication that customers with legitimate health needs want to be able to purchase,” Kroger spokesman Carl York said Wednesday. Kroger customers next month will be allowed to buy no more than 3.6 grams per month of cold medications containing pseudoephedrine, The Charleston Gazette reported. West Virginia law allows people to purchase 7.2 grams per month. CVS in July announced it will no longer sell medications that solely contain pseudoephedrine at its 50 West Virginia stores and at 40 stores in neighboring states that are within 15 miles of the West Virginia border. Rite Aid, Fruth Pharmacy and Walgreens also have stopped selling singleingredient pseudoephedrine cold products in West Virginia. Fairplain Tractor Sales, INC.

The House on Monday passed the Transparent Airfares Act, which will allow airlines to advertise the base price of a ticket before taxes and fees are added. Under current federal regulations, airlines are required to emphasize the full ticket price in their advertising. If the new bill is approved by the Senate and president, we fear it will make air travel confusing for paying customers and ultimately will be bad for the airlines themselves. The measure comes thanks to the hard work of the lobbyists who represent the airlines and those who represent the airline employee unions. Those are two sides that don’t normally get along, but together they argued that showing the full price of a ticket dampens the demand for travel. Depending on how you calculate it, taxes and fees on the cheapest flights can add up to somewhere between $48 and $63. That’s in the neighborhood of 20 percent of a $300 ticket. The airlines also argue that forcing them to advertise the full price hides the costs imposed on air travel by the government. That’s a valid point. However, there are plenty of ways to convey that message to customers without giving them sticker shock. They can inform customers about these costs through the advertising, via email after a ticket is purchased or over the phone during a booking call. We’re sure airlines and airline unions also are lobbying Washington to get these taxes and fees reduced on behalf of their customers but, as any American knows, once the government levies a tax, it’s almost impossible to get it reduced or eliminated. The Airfares Act comes as airlines are seeing positive trends in customer satisfaction. According to the 2014 J.D. Power survey, airlines scored 712 points on a scale of 1,000 in customer satisfaction. That was a record high number and an improvement of 17 points from last year. We wonder, though, how those numbers will fare when customers start getting surprised at the ticket booth with taxes and fees. Will they blame the government, as the airlines are clearly hoping, or will they accuse the airlines of a bait and switch? Regardless of what happens, this is another reminder for shoppers to always check the fine print. Today in history Today is Saturday, Aug. 2, the 214th day of 2014. There are 151 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Aug. 2, 1964, the destroyer USS Maddox suffered light damage during a skirmish with North Vietnamese patrol torpedo boats in the Gulf of Tonkin. (This and an alleged second incident two days later led to congressional approval of the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution that propelled America deep into war.) On this date: In 1776, members of the Continental Congress began attaching their signatures to the Declaration of Independence. In 1873, inventor Andrew S. Hallidie (HAH’-lihday) successfully tested a cable car he had designed for the city of San Francisco. In 1876, frontiersman “Wild Bill” Hickok was shot and killed while playing poker at a saloon in Deadwood, Dakota Territory, by Jack McCall, who was later hanged. In 1909, the original Lincoln “wheat” penny first went into circulation, replacing the “Indian Head” cent. In 1923, the 29th president of the United States, Warren G. Harding, died in San Francisco; Vice President Calvin Coolidge became president. In 1934, German President Paul von Hindenburg died, paving the way for Adolf Hitler’s complete takeover. In 1939, Albert Einstein signed a letter to President Franklin D. Roosevelt urging creation of an atomic weapons research program. President Roosevelt signed the Hatch Act, which prohibited civil service employees from taking an active part in political campaigns. In 1943, during World War II, U.S. Navy boat PT-109, commanded by Lt. (jg) John F. Kennedy, sank after being rammed in the middle of the night by the Japanese destroyer Amagiri off the Solomon Islands. Two crew members were killed. In 1945, President Harry S. Truman, Soviet leader Josef Stalin and British Prime Minister Clement Attlee concluded the Potsdam conference. In 1974, former White House counsel John W. Dean III was sentenced to one to four years in prison for obstruction of justice in the Watergate coverup. (Dean ended up serving four months.) In 1985, 135 people were killed when a Delta Air Lines jetliner crashed while attempting to land at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. Their view When men walked as blind men A centennial view of The First World War This year marks the 100th anniversary of the beginning of World War I. On July 28, 1914, the assassination of the heir to the Austrian-Hungarian throne, a comparatively minor event, led to what some believe to be the most terrible and disastrous war of the 20th century. Terrible and disastrous in so many ways. For years, wise men had speculated why such a European war would not come. Money trumped politics, some said; bankers and men who comprised the financial and industrial elite would not risk a general war. Since leading nations were now industrialized, a general war would be too wasteful. It was one thing to lay waste in agricultural societies, but quite another to destroy large factories, transportation systems and large cities in an industrial era. The spread of scientific ideas, together with advances in education and social reform, led others to believe that intelligence and negotiation would prevent large-scale wars. The growing destructiveness of new military technology would inoculate human beings against the social illness of war. In addition, a small minority of idealists held that international socialism, which had gained converts amid the growth of industrial power, would prevent the outbreak of a great war, for working men in the nations of Europe would not take up arms against each other. Yet in August 1914, all of these reasons were swept aside. When no one knew what they faced, millions of people were elated. Celebrations erupted in Berlin (Let’s go!”), Paris (“We’ll see you in Berlin in September”) and St. Petersburg (“Support the Czar!”). A romantic, patriotic war would be “over by Christmas.” However, each nation also harbored an abundance of skepticism, that is, until the armies engaged each other. It was as if war came overnight. On one side were the “Central Powers” — Germany and AustriaHungary — and on the all for 1,000 yards. Men broke under other, the Allied those conditions, Powers — Russia, sought relief in France and Great sick bays or solace Britain.

Extreme economic dislocations occasioned trade and tariff wars that underlay The Great Depression of the 1930s. There is more. Spread in part by the movement of ships carrying soldiers and sailors who lived in close quarters, the Great Flu epidemic of 1918-19 circled the world, and in less than a year killed between 30 million and 50 million people (there is no official count), including 675,000 the United States. Whatever words may describe the foregoing, victory and human progress are not among them. “Human nature” a roadblock to peace? War is as old as civilization — indeed is an expression of it — because through the centuries war did benefit some societies. But there are certain melancholy understandings of history and human nature that the tragedies of the past century will not let us shake from memory. One is that suffering becomes unbearable as hundreds, thousands and millions either die or are maimed for life, physically and psychologically. Another is that even normally peaceful people can be roused to fight in anger by political duplicity, a felt need for revenge, and even clownish propaganda. The seven deadly sins remain deep-seated in the human heart. Some find it possible to subdue them; others do not. But now that war is so lethal — born of historical experience if not of morality — we should better be able to see the humanness in our putative enemies and insist that our governments do likewise. Humanity has made enormous progress since the ancient days of tribal warfare. Our work is to facilitate that movement through our era of nationalism and sophisticated, destructive technologies.

Hair littered the ground at Kings Island as 213 people had their heads shaved at part of the park’s Kicks Cancer campaign to raise awareness and money for the fight against cancer. The current record of 182 heads shaved simultaneously was achieved by a cancer charity in Canberra, Australia, on March 29, Guinness World Records says. Stylists from Great Clips salons around the state did the shaving at the park north of Cincinnati as males and females of all ages sacrificed their tresses. For some, there were personal motivations as well. Eric Gagliano and his 11-year-old son, Ben, said they especially wanted to participate because Ben’s grandmother is fighting brain cancer. “We just felt this was something we needed to do for my mother-in-law, and we also have a good friend who lost a child to brain cancer,” said Eric Gagliano, 42, of Beavercreek, near Dayton. “I think everyone knows someone who has been touched by cancer.” Ben, who said he never had his head shaved before, said he would probably do it again to help others. But when his dad jokingly talked of shaving the rest of the stubble from his son’s newly shorn head for a completely bald look, Ben’s Beaver From page 1A clerk of courts and signed by the defendant, her counsel and the prosecution in this case, states that, through the plea agreement, a “joint recommendation” is being made by the state and the defendant to the court. This recommendation says that, in consideration of the defendant’s guilty plea, Beaver will be sentenced to a total of four years and 11 months of imprisonment “with an agreement that the defen- dant may apply for Judicial Release after serving six months in prison and that the parties agree that she should be granted judicial release at that time.” In addition, the plea agreement further outlines that the defendant will be placed on community control for a period of three years following her release from prison and will be required to register as a Tier I Sexually Oriented Offender. As a Tier I sex offender, Beaver will be required to register her place of residence, place of employment and place of attaining Jamboree From page 1A “The cars will all be parked on First Avenue so people can come in look at them. If it rains, they’ll have it at the Quality Inn and the cars will be in the parking lot there,” Gallia County’s Convention and Visitor’s Bureau Office Manager and Events Coordinator Karen McCarty said. On Saturday, the cars will tour Point Pleasant and Mason County, beginning at Fort Randolph, from 8-10 a.m. The cars will then tour various parts of the county. The cars will also be parked at the First Church of the Nazarene at 1110 Fist Ave. in Gallipolis from 6-7:30 p.m. Saturday for the jamboree’s banquet. At 7:30 p.m., the cars will return the Quality Inn parking lot. The weekend will conclude with a Sunday tour through Gallia County, beginning at 8 a.m. Part of the tour will go through Centenary, Raccoon Creek Park, Cadmus, Patriot and Gage, before arriving at the Bob Evans Farm at noon for lunch and a tour of the farm. After lunch, the Model T’s will return to their homes. Since the Model T’s travel at slower speeds than other cars, the visitor’s bureau asks that residents be mindful of that fact, McCarty said. For more information on the upcoming jamboree, call or visit the Gallia County Convention and Visitor’s Bureau.

She said her grandmother died of cancer. “I was just so happy to be able to be a part of this,” said House, 29, of South Lebanon. A Guinness spokeswoman said Friday that it will take about six to eight weeks to certify the park’s claim. higher education with the sheriff ’s office in the county in which she resides for a period of 15 years. A victim’s statement filed on Thursday and signed by a representative of the victim in this matter stipulates the victim representative’s agreement to the aforementioned plea agreement. As previously reported, Beaver was indicted in April of this year, and, soon thereafter, appeared for an arraignment hearing, pleading not guilty to her seven-count indictment, which outlines five charges of the unlawful sexual con- duct with a minor, one count of the illegal use of minor in nudity-oriented material, and one count of disseminating matter harmful to juveniles. According to the indictment, between June 1, 2013, and Aug. 31, 2013, Beaver allegedly engaged in sexual intercourse with the male victim, who was 13 years of age but less than 16 years of age at the time of the incidents. The indictment also alleges that the defendant possessed or viewed material that shows the victim, as well as disseminated to the victim material that is harmful to juveniles. Following her arraignment hearing in April, the defendant was released on an own recognizance bond. The defendant appeared in court on Thursday with her retained counsel, K. Robert Toy, of Athens, while the state of Ohio was represented by special prosecuting attorney Angela R. Canepa of the Ohio Attorney General’s Office. In consideration of her guilty plea, the state of Ohio dismissed the remaining five counts of her indictment. Also during the hearing, the defendant was advised that she will be subject to a mandatory period of five years of post release control without reduction. Beaver was further ordered to have no contact with the victim or his family. She was given credit for one day served, along with future custody days awaiting transportation. The defendant was ordered to pay the costs of prosecution. She was remanded to the custody of the Gallia County Sheriff ’s Office following the hearing and will be transported to the appropriate prison facility.

OXProvider YGEN 446-0007 Jackson 60521249 594-7000 Gallipolis Associated Press COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Democratic candidate for Ohio governor and his wife said Friday they’re disappointed by personal attacks following a news report that police two years ago responded to a call about the candidate and another woman in a car. Ed FitzGerald and his wife, Shannon, also said they’re upset that friends in Ireland are being dragged into a negative campaign. The couple’s announcement came just hours after a northeastern Ohio news organization published details of 2012 police records about FitzGerald and an Irish woman in a vacant suburban Cleveland parking lot at about 4:30 a.m. Fitzgerald told the Northeast Ohio Media Group Friday that nothing inappropriate happened with the woman, a friend. FitzGerald canceled planned events Friday associated with his endorsement by Ohio’s Fraternal Order of Police. He called the report an “unwarranted and cheap” attack by the team of incumbent Republican Gov. John Kasich, FitzGerald’s opponent in the fall. A message was left with Kasich’s campaign. FitzGerald’s campaign released a statement from members of an Irish delegation, who called the 2012 encounter an “innocuous incident.” The statement says FitzGerald was driving Joanne Grehan back to her hotel in 2012 at the Irish delegation’s request when they got separated from others and stopped to map the route. A police officer approached the car, checked that everything was OK and left, according to a statement by Grehan and another delegate, Peter Hynes, who said FitzGerald proceeded to the hotel and dropped off Grehan. “We are outraged and disgusted to find our names being drawn into what is clearly a controversy fabricated with political motivation and we confirm that there is absolutely no basis for the unfounded speculation and nasty innuendo which surrounds reporting of this incident,” the delegates said. The news comes in the same week as new poll numbers showing that FitzGerald has gained little ground against Kasich.

Congress backs Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense By Bradley Klapper Associated Press WASHINGTON — The Senate on Friday rushed through a $225 million bill to replenish Israel’s missile defense system, and House approval was expected in the final hours before lawmakers began a summer break. The money will go to restocking Israel’s Iron Dome, which has been credited with shooting down dozens of incoming rockets fired by Palestinian militants over three and a half weeks of war. The vote came two days after the Pentagon announced ammunition deliveries to the Jewish state and as a planned 72-hour ceasefire between Israel and Hamas unraveled almost as quickly as it began. Efforts in the Senate to approve the money stalled Thursday night after Republican Sen. Tom Coburn of Oklahoma sought cuts elsewhere in the budget to pay for the aid. Earlier, senators attempted to lump the Israel money into a broader spending bill that included border security and wildfire assistance money. That bill failed to get the necessary 60 votes on Thursday, and the House had little interest in it, anyway. Friday’s separate Israel bill passed by voice vote. At a White House Tires & Brakes 30 sycamore street Gallipolis, Ohio 740-441-1199 60506033 news conference Friday, President Barack Obama reiterated his support for Israel’s right to self-defense while urging greater protection for Palestinian civilians. He cited Iron Dome as a concrete way the U.S. is helping “make sure that Israel is able to protect its citizens.” The Iron Dome system has emerged as a game-changer in the current round of violence, with Israeli officials citing a success rate as high as 90 percent. The system uses radar, advanced tracking technology and anti-missile batteries to follow the trajectory of an incoming rocket or mortar and determine if it is headed for a major population center. If an urban area is threatened, interceptors are fired to detonate in the air in close proximity to the missile. Projectiles not posing a threat are allowed to fall in empty fields. The sys- tem targets short-range rockets with a range between 2 miles and 45 miles; interceptors cost as much $100,000 apiece. Created by Israel’s Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, Iron Dome has enjoyed strong U.S. technological and financial support. Throughout its history, the U.S. has provided more than $700 million to help Israel cover costs for batteries, interceptors, production costs and maintenance, the Congressional Research Service said. The total already appeared set to climb above $1 billion after Senate appropriators doubled the Obama administration’s request for Iron Dome funding for fiscal 2015. Now it seems likely to rise even further, with Obama expected to sign any bill swiftly into law. It’s unclear, however, how quickly the new supplies might reach the battlefield. And Israel and Hamas may be in for a prolonged fight. A cease-fire arranged by the United States and United Nations collapsed shortly after its start Friday morning, with at least 60 Palestinians and two Israeli soldiers killed. And the apparent capture of an Israeli infantry officer set the stage for a major escalation in a conflict that already has devastated large swaths of Gaza. The Obama administration, which had grown increasingly irritated with the mounting Palestinian casualties, condemned the capture as “absolutely outrageous.” More than 1,400 Palestinians, mostly civilians, and more than 60 Israelis, mostly soldiers, have been killed in the last 25 days. Some of Congress’ Iron Dome money could go to U.S. defense contractor Raytheon, which can manufacture components of the system after a March 2014 agreement between Israel and the United States. The two companies also are collaborating on a system targeting mid-range rockets that can travel between 45 miles and 200 miles to protect Israel against Hezbollah in Lebanon and President Bashar Assad’s government and Sunni extremists in Syria. With an eye on Iran, Israel also is developing a deterrent against longer-range threats. The next generation of the Arrow system is scheduled to deploy in 2016. Shortly after the Gaza conflict erupted, Obama praised the missile defense systems as proof of America’s commitment to Israeli security. His administration sent the Israeli request to Congress for more Iron Dome money even as the president and Secretary of State John Kerry have been seeking a humanitarian cease-fire.

Ohio lawmaker proposes LeBron license plate Associated Press CLEVELAND — An Ohio lawmaker wants to give the state’s motorists the chance to score a license plate honoring LeBron James. State Rep. Bill Patmon is planning to introduce legislation to permit the sale of a commemorative “LeBron James Witness 2.0” plate honoring the Akron native’s decision return to the Cleveland Cavaliers. “When LeBron came home, it was a big deal for us,” said the Democrat from Cleveland. “It might not be for the rest of the world, but it’s a big deal for Cleveland.” James, a four-time NBA most valuable player, was drafted by the Cavaliers in 2003 but left town for Miami after seven seasons. Last month, he announced he would re-sign with Cleveland. His representatives declined to comment Friday on the license plate proposal. The Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles offers more than 150 specialty plates, including one that Patmon pushed through the Legislature that honors comic book hero Superman. The Man of Steel was created by two Clevelanders, Jerry Siegel and Joe Schuster, who grew up in the Glenville neighborhood that Patmon represents. “People from all over country and world called (the BMV) office about the Superman license plate,” Patmon said. Unfortunately for Superman’s out-of-state and international fans, they would have to register a vehicle in Ohio to get a plate, although Patmon thinks there’s an “after-market” for them as there would be for a LeBron James plate. The state currently does not offer any license plates commemorating a real person, dead or alive. Lindsey Bohrer, a spokeswoman for the Ohio BMV, is not aware that the state has ever had one. Ohio does have plates for more than two dozen Ohio colleges or universities, 40 with military themes, seven for professional sports teams and more than 80 others that tell let the motoring world know you are a prospective organ donor, an Eagle Scout or a “Friend of Coal.” The motor vehicle bureau charges $35 for most specialty plates plus an agreed-to amount that goes to charity. For example, a breast cancer awareness plate adorned with a pink ribbon, generates $25 for the Breast Cancer Fund of Ohio. Patmon wants the LeBron James Family Foundation to receive the additional cost those plates would generate. He said he has spoken to James’ representatives. CANTON, Ohio — NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell defended himself Friday against criticism that he was too lenient in suspending Ray Rice two games for his “horrible mistake.” “We just can’t make up the discipline,” Goodell said. “It has to be consistent with other cases. And it was in this matter.” Goodell stressed that the Baltimore running back has assumed responsibility for his conduct, has no history of assault and is following a court order to enter a diversionary program following his domestic violence arrest. “We’ve dealt with it in a serious manner, and we’re very confident that this young man understands where he is and what he needs to do going forward,” Goodell said. “I think what’s important here is Ray has taken responsibility for this. He’s been accountable for his actions. He recognizes he made a horrible mistake that is unacceptable by his standards, by our standards. And he’s got to work to re-establish himself.” Goodell spoke a day before the Pro Football Hall of Fame induction ceremony. It was his first opportunity to answer questions regarding Rice since disciplining him July 24. A day earlier, Rice apologized at training camp in his first comments since the suspension. He called his actions “totally inexcusable” and acknowledged he must live with this for the rest of his life. See Goodell | 2B Looking to the future the coming 2014 season Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com The countdown is on. In less than four weeks, the 2014 high school football season kicks off in both Ohio and West Virginia as nine area teams take aim at winning league championships and qualifying for the postseason. Three Ohio Valley Publishing schools — Point Pleasant (11-1), Wahama (10-2) and Southern (8-3) — qualified for the playoffs a year ago, with SHS being the only squad to not win its opening round matchup. Two more schools — Meigs (7-3) and South Gallia (6-4) — came up just short of a postseason qualification, while Gallia Academy (5-5), Eastern (2-8), River Valley (1-9) and Hannan (2-8) all posted .500 or below records to finish the 2013 campaign. The good thing about a new season is the chance to start anew, as the successes and failures from a year ago no longer matter. Everybody starts over again. In examining the 89 local regular season football contests this fall — yes, 89, because PPHS only has nine games on its schedule — there are several things of interest that stand out in each of the three counties. There are also a total of 24 new games on the collective 2014 schedule in comparison to a year ago. The most notable game of interest in the area is the return of the Gallia Academy-Point Pleasant game, which is commonly referred to as ‘The Battle of the Bridge.’ The series returns after a five-year hiatus and will be played Week 5 at Ohio Valley Bank Track and Field in Point Pleasant. GAHS leads the alltime series by a 40-34-5 overall margin and brings a 10-game winning streak into the renewal of the cross-river rivalry. The Blue Devils won every game against PPHS between 1999 Bryan Walters/file photo Point Pleasant quarterback Aden Yates (16) scrambles away from the pocket and keeps an eye downfield during this Week 10 football contest against Oak Glen on Saturday, Nov. 3, 2013, at Ohio Valley Bank Track and Field in Point Pleasant, W.Va. and 2008 by a combined score of 285-85. The Blue Devils and Big Blacks, however, are not the only big game in the area this year. In fact, there are several outings that will need some special attention. Here’s a brief look at each local team and some of the changes from last year to this year. The Big Blacks — who enter 2014 with the area’s longest regular season winning streak at 14 games — will have three new opponents this year in GAHS, Wayne and Parkersburg South. Point’s opponents combined for a 41-49 overall mark in the regular season last fall. Wahama begins the first full season under head coach Dave Barr, who replaced Ed Cromley in midseason a year ago. The only change on the White Falcons’ schedule this year is in the opening week, as WHS will travel to Ravenswood for a Week 1 matchup. Wahama enters 2014 with an eight-game regular season winning streak and takes on a schedule that collectively finished 46-54 a year ago. Half of Hannan’s 2014 schedule is new from a year ago, with those opponents accumulating an 18-73 overall mark last season. The new additions include South Floyd (Ky), Bellaire St. John, Tygarts Valley, Green and Pike Eastern — which will officially begin varsity football within the OHSAA next fall. Gallia Academy has two new opponents on its schedule in PPHS and Chesapeake, and the 2014 schedule combined to go 58-42 last season. GAHS has lost four straight regular season contests entering 2014 and will also be on the program’s third head coach in three years. South Gallia made only one change to its 2013 schedule, picking up former rival Symmes Valley in place of Van. The Rebels — who enter this season with a two-game regular season winning streak — will take on a schedule that combined to go 52-48 last year.

Goodell From page 1B The six-year veteran will miss the Ravens’ season opener against Cincinnati on Sept. 7 and the Sept. 11 game against Pittsburgh. Rice allegedly struck then-fiancee Janay Palmer, now his wife, on Feb. 15 in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The 27-year-old player has been accepted into a diversion program and upon completion could result in the charges being expunged. Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was suspended six games in 2010 after being accused of sexually assaulting a 20-year-old college student. That suspension was eventually reduced to four games. Goodell said, unlike Roethlisberger, Rice had not had off-field problems before. “If it’s a first offense, someone who’s had a strong background of being very responsible in the community, doing the right things and not violating other policies or anything else that reflect poorly on the NFL, then we would take that into account,” Goodell said. “And when there’s a pattern, we also take that into account on the other side.” Many critics contend Rice’s suspension is insufficient when compared BEST PRICED T REN BOOTS BUY IT AROUND! IT to longer suspensions for players who violate the league’s substance abuse policy. Goodell noted there is a policy in place to determine punishment based on the number of times a player tests positive. “You have to respond to facts here. You have a lot of people voicing their opinions,” Goodell said. “But I think it’s important to understand that this is a young man who made a terrible mistake.” Goodell also stressed that Rice acknowledged he was wrong and promised to speak out against domestic violence. The commissioner said it was important he had the chance to meet with both the player and Palmer. “What I want to see is success stories,” Goodell said. “I want to see people, when they make a mistake, I want to see them take responsibility, be accountable for it and make a difference going forward. I hope that’s what Ray Rice is going to do.” On other league matters, Goodell declined to comment on possible suspensions for three players implicated in the Miami Dolphins’ bullying scandal last season, but he said they’ve fulfilled league requirements so far. Richie Incognito, Mike Pouncey and John Jerry were all implicated in the episode, which prompted tackle Jonathan Martin to quit the team. “There are different issues with different individuals,” Goodell said. “The bottom line is everything is proceeding. They’re doing what they’ve been asked to do. And that we will make individual decisions if necessary.” Pouncey is still with the Dolphins. Jerry is with the New York Giants. Incognito, whose troubled relationship with Martin caused the scandal to mushroom, is unsigned. “I would say the one person that has been very responsive and has gone through the program is Richie Incognito,” Goodell said. “We’re working with his people and monitoring his progress.” Athens, Vinton County and Wellston. RVHS has also added Southeastern, Eastern and Northwest to its non-league schedule — which makes the overall strength of schedule a combined 41-59 from a year ago. River Valley enters 2014 having lost five straight regular sea- son tilts. The Tornadoes enjoyed a magical run in 2013 after earning the school’s first playoff berth, and building on that success will be a key rallying point for SHS this fall. Southern enters 2014 with a one-game regular season winning streak and two new opponents in Portsmouth Notre Dame and Frontier. Southern’s current schedule went a combined 53-47 a year ago. Meigs made major strides in the second year under coach Mike Bartrum, as the Marauders followed up a 3-7 campaign with a 7-3 flip. MHS also suffered all its losses to playoff teams and went a perfect 5-0 at Farmers Bank Stadium in 2013. Meigs has added Logan and Ironton to its 2014 schedule, which finished last fall with a combined 47-53 overall mark. MHS also enters this year with a one-game regular season winning streak. Eastern will be on its third head coach in three years as it enters the 2014 campaign. The Eagles have two new opponents in River and River Valley, giving their 2014 schedule a combined 52-48 record a year ago.

I think it’s been back and forth. It’s something that I don’t try to evaluate every day. I try to just coach both of them and get them better. Usually in my experience, when you’ve been in a situation like this, it usually plays out. “We’ve been in a week. Hopefully as these preseason games go, as these practices go, I hope one of them will make the decision easy on us, one will just take off and start playing really well. Usually the answer becomes pretty easy. If they make it tough, I hope it’s because they’re both playing really well.” Manziel acknowledged some “ups and downs” during his first week in camp. He claims not to be worried about whether he’s made up ground on Hoyer, who as expected, has looked sharper than his younger teammate. Manziel said his sole focus is on getting a handle on learning Cleveland’s offense. “I’m not worried about one or the other being ahead,” he said. “I’m worried about me making sure I know what I need to know to get out here and execute and run the offense and not have any mistakes. Once I go through a couple of days with no mental errors or getting where I need to be every single time, then I’ll feel a lot better. “Right now, it’s me versus the playbook and there’s nothing else.” Manziel is finding it difficult to operate the same way he did in college, where he shattered records and captivated a generation of fans with his uncanny ability to ad lib and turn a routine play into something spectacular. It’s a whole different game in the pros with bigger, faster, stronger players. Shanahan said Manziel is beginning to understand he has to be a different quarterback. He doesn’t have a choice. There’s not time to freelance or be creative and run around in the NFL. It’s get the ball, make a decision and get rid of it. “The test when you get to the NFL is a lot of times those defenses won’t allow you to do that,” he said. “They’re going to keep you in the pocket. They’re going to have their containment. So you can’t always be looking for it. You’ve got to be able to do both, and when something’s not there or when a defense gets out of their lanes, yeah, make them pay.” Shanahan doesn’t want Manziel to abandon his playmaking ways, but he must know when to improvise. “You never want to take that away from him, but you’ve got to continue to develop as a quarterback because these defenses in this league, especially once you get into the regular season and coaches game plan for you, if they want to keep you in the pocket, they can,” he said. “So you’ve got to be able to do both, and if you can do both, you can be a great one.” Steelers WR Antonio Brown aims for repeat of 2013 Associated Press LATROBE, Pa. — Antonio Brown rolled up to the dorms at Saint Vincent College last week in a Mercedes conversion van. It’s fitting in a way. Five years into a blossoming career, the Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver is playing the role of dad — OK, maybe slightly older brother — to a group long on talent but short on experience. Four years ago, Brown was one of those players who arrived at his first NFL training camp confident but curious. Now the 26-year-old is the sage to rookie Martavis Bryant and second-year guys Markus Wheaton and Justin Brown. Ask Brown if he’s OK with being in the spotlight and he flashes a grin. At this point, does he really have a choice? “Everyone’s watching,” Brown said. “Everyone’s watching my attitude, my demeanor my approach. Coach (Mike Tomlin) says I’m the guy to look to do things, so there’s a lot of emphasis on how to handle things and how to go about a lot of things being the leader.” It’s a far cry from his days as a founding member of the “Young Money Family” — the nickname Brown, Mike Wallace and Emmanuel Sanders gave themselves as the next generation to become quarterback Ben Roethlisberger’s favorite targets behind veteran Hines Ward. The trio eventually did get paid, but Wallace and Sanders had to leave Pittsburgh via free agency to cash in. Not Brown, who signed a lengthy $42 million extension two summers ago. At the moment, he looks as if he’s one of the better bargains in the league a season after setting a club record with 1,499 yards receiving and becoming the first player in NFL history to have five receptions and at least 50 yards receiving in all 16 games. Heady territory for a former sixth-round pick turned two-time Pro Bowler who still prefers football pants over shorts during walkthroughs because it better simulates how he’ll feel during a game. It’s that attention to detail that has helped the 5-foot-10 Brown thrive at a position dominated by decidedly larger men. “I thought AB was dominant the first year he got here,” Steelers cornerback William Gay said. “I was wondering why he was drafted so low. Money don’t make a difference. Pro Bowls don’t make a difference. He still feels like he’s the underdog.” Maybe that’s because he is. You won’t find Brown on the cover of a video game or hawking sports drinks. Not that he’s complaining. If he feels disrespected, he keeps it to himself. No matter, the guys he works for are happy to take up the cause. “I think AB, in my opinion is just as good as most of the receivers around the league,” wide receivers coach Richard Mann said. “He might not be as big as some of them but the production is there, the yards after catch are there. A lot of times beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” And no wide receiver in the franchise’s eight decades of football had a better year than Brown did in 2013. Thrust to the top of the depth chart after Wallace took his sprinter’s speed to Miami, Brown caught 110 passes, hauled in eight touchdowns and averaged 12.6 yards as a punt returner. Handling kicks isn’t in the job description of most No. 1 receivers. Yet it’s a responsibility Brown will happily embrace if he’s not supplanted by Wheaton or rookie running back/ receiver Dri Archer. For all his success, however, Brown insists there is plenty to work on. He’s not the most instinctive run blocker. Mann calls Brown’s ability “adequate” but allows there is plenty of room for improvement in sealing off defensive backs. “A lot of time your presence is good enough,” Mann said. “We want him to be accountable and I think he’s stepping up to the plate.” It’s what Brown does. Though he’s not one to invite controversy, he is growing more comfortable with the idea that what he says carries weight. When Sanders told a Denver radio station earlier this week that Ron Jenkins/Fort Worth Star-Telegram/MCT Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown (84) celebrates a touchdown as Dallas Cowboys cornerback Mike Jenkins (21) walks away during game action at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, Sunday, December 16, 2012. Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning is a far better leader than Roethlisberger, Brown chastised his friend while also sticking up for the teammate who helped Sanders land a lucrative free agent deal with Denver in the first place. “That was terrible,” Brown said. “You don’t throw your quarterback under the bus, the guy who makes you who you are.” Brown feels an equal sense of ownership as the longest-tenured player at his position. Sure, he had a career year last fall. It didn’t stop the Steelers from missing the playoffs. Getting back in 2014 will depend in part on how quickly he can brink the kids along. And Brown knows it. “I think the potential is nothing unless we unlock it,” he said. “We have to unlock it.” Classifieds - continued from page B6 Money To Lend Help Wanted General Houses For Sale Apartments/Townhouses NOTICE Borrow Smart.

Ariel Williams, 8, of Gallipolis, became National Little Miss Sweetheart queen (ages 6-8) the week of July 8-13 in Mason, Ohio. Williams, along with other girls from across the United States, competed in the Pure America Pageant — a pageant that emphasizes Christian morals, public speaking and community service. The pageant requires the girls to be completely natural in appearance, according to the group’s website. Williams’ journey began last September in Rio Grande, where she competed against other girls for the title of Little Miss Rio Grande. In March, she competed at the Ohio State Pageant Darst named 2013 Gallia County Officer of the Year and won the title of Little Miss Ohio State Sweetheart, which made her eligible to compete on a national level. Williams became eligible for the Little Miss Sweetheart title at the state level, after interviewing with judges and showcasing their personalities and qualities; contestants who do not compete for Little Miss Sweetheart title compete for the Little Miss title. “You always have a queen, but not everybody gets a Sweetheart,” her mother, Jennifer Neal, said. Williams said the experience made her nervous, but she found her own way to calm herself down. “I was really nervous, (but) I pretended like everyone (in the audience) was gone,” she said. While Williams won the title of Sweetheart, her mother became the Pure American Pageants Ms. West Virginia. Neal said that although at its heart the pageant world is about competition, in the end everyone really becomes close. “The pageant system is family,” she said. “They’re very good to each other.” ‘Rollin’ on the River’ Submitted photo Gallia County Sheriff’s Deputy Jerry Darst was named the 2013 Officer of the Year by the Gallia County Gun Club during a dinner held last week at the gun club. Pictured are Chairman Tom Meadows and Gun Club President Bill McCreedy presenting the officer of the year Kimber 45 automatic pistol to Deputy Jerry Darst. Staff Report GDTnews@civitasmedia.com BIDWELL — On Thursday, July 24, 2014, the Gallia County Gun Club held their annual dinner to honor all of the Gallia County and Gallipolis law officers and name the lawman of the year for 2013. About 95 lawmen and women and club members were treated to a good dinner. After the dinner, Gallia County Gun Club Officer of the Year Committee Chairman Tom Meadows presented Jerry Darst with a gun for being named Officer of the Year for 2013. His name will be inscribed on the officer of the year plaque. Deputy Sheriff Darst has been with the Gallia County Sheriff’s Office since 2010 and has been in law enforcement for 15 years. Deputy Darst’s drug arrests include stopping a couple from bringing marijuana into the Gallia County Fair with intent to sell and a heroin case in the county. Deputy Darst was also responsible for solving several burglary cases. Deputy Darst does a good job and takes pride in what he does,” Chariman Meadows said. “He works hard and cares about the welfare of the community and the people he serves.” Deputy Darst lives in Springfield Township with his wife and two children. “Get It All.” In the Classifieds Bryan Walters/photos The Belle of Cincinnati returned to Gallipolis this past week as it docked on Tuesday at the French Square.

Florida preserve brings wolves, people together Associated Press CHIPLEY, Fla. — At Seacrest Wolf Preserve in northern Florida, billed as the largest such facility in the Southeast, owners Cynthia and Wayne Watkins say they raise their wolves to become accustomed to humans — and for a $25 fee, they even let visitors mingle with a wolf pack. It lets wolves become ambassadors for their species, they say, and helps people become advocates for wolves. “We offer one of the rarest opportunities in the world for humans to see wolves up close and personal,” Cynthia Watkins says. The Watkinses estimate that Seacrest, near the small town of Chipley, gets 10,000 visitors a year. But some wolf experts worry that Seacrest may be allowing wolves and humans to get too close. Dave Mech, a senior research assistant with the U.S. Geological Survey who has spent decades studying wolves, says allowing visitors to enter a wolf pack enclosure isn’t safe. “They are still unpredictable because they are wild animals,” he said. “Wolves are not like dogs. Dogs have been domes- ticated for thousands of years and that unpredictability and wildness is taken out of them because of the breeding.” A worker was attacked and killed by a pack of wolves in 2012 at a wildlife park in Sweden. A Canadian biologist was killed by wolves at the Haliburton Forest & Wild Life Preserve in 1996. Seacrest requires visitors to watch an educational video before they interact with the wolves, has trained wolf handlers on hand during every tour and doesn’t allow children under 6 to take the tour, Watkins said. “We are not some little roadside zoo,” she added. The Seacrest preserve grew out of her passion for raising huskies, the sled dogs with a wolf-like appearance. That evolved into providing a home for wolves in need of relocation and later into a captive breeding program. The 30 gray, Arctic and British Columbian wolves, with names including Utah, Rio, Liberty and Spirit Prince, are separated into packs. Each pack has several acres to roam. On a recent afternoon, Cynthia Watkins sat on a log bench surrounded by seven howling gray (AP Photo) Founder Cynthia Watkins kisses a wolf inside the Seacrest Wolf Preserve in Chipley, Fla. The 450-acre preserve is home to 30 gray, Arctic and British Columbian wolves. It is the largest wolf preserve in the southeastern United States. The preserve was damaged during heavy rains that flooded the region in April. wolves. Watkins joined in their howling and pet and kissed each of them. “Little Red Riding Hood was wrong and the wolf is not the bad guy but indeed a very important keystone species,” she said. Seacrest also provides wolves to education programs around the country. Pat Goodman, curator of Wolf Park in Battle Ground, Indiana, has worked with wolves for more than 40 years, and said Seacrest has a good reputation for raising healthy wolves that serve as ambassadors for their species in places around the country. In Florida, thousands of miles from many of the wolves’ native habitat, Seacrest uses spray misters, large ponds and lots of shade inside the wolves’ densely wooded enclosures to help the animals deal with the heat and humidity. The preserve is still recovering from a major flood in late April when heavy rains burst a dam on the property, washing out the wolf enclosures. The flood led to the death of one British Columbian wolf that escaped from its enclosure. It was shot and killed by a sheriff’s deputy after an extensive search for the animal led by Florida’s Fish and Wild Conservation Commission. Stan Kirkland, a spokesman for Florida’s Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, said the deputy shot the wolf out of concern for public safety after officers spent days tracking the animal and trying to trap it without killing it. He said officers couldn’t get close enough to use a tranquilizer dart. “You are talking about a 90- to 100-pound wolf escaping and we really were out of options,” Kirkland said. The Watkins are petitioning Gov. Rick Scott to start an investigation into the death of the wolf. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
