The “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign will pair increased public awareness with high-visibility enforce- ment, resulting in fewer drunk drivers on area roads, according to the release. In 2012, there were 10,322 people killed in drunk-driving crashes in the United States. Over Labor Day Weekend (6 p.m. Friday to 5:59 a.m. Tuesday that year, more than a third — 38 percent — of all traffic fatalities were in drunk driving crashes, according to the sheriff’s office. “It’s tragic how many people lose their lives to drunk driving,” Meigs County Sheriff Chief Wood said. “If the news reported that more than 10,000 people were killed in a preventable crime spree, the American public would be outraged.” The Meigs County Sheriff’s Office will be joining the national “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign, and will arrest anyone caught driving drunk. Over the Labor Day weekend in 2012, there were 147 people killed in alcohol-impaired driving crashes across the country. According to the release, 25 percent of the fatalities that weekend were attributed to drivers with blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .15 grams per deciliter (g/dL) or higher. See POLICE | A5 Mason favors lower speed limit By Mindy Kearns Special to the Sentinel MASON — Residents traveling the streets of Mason will soon see a change in the speed limit. Town Council member Emily Henry made the motion to decrease the speed limit on municipal streets from 25 mph to 15 mph. The motion passed following a second by Councilman Ralph Ross. The council also discussed the use of ATVs and golf carts on back streets. The municipal ordinance reads that drivers of these vehicles must be licensed, wear a helmet if under the age of 18, and the ATV or golf cart must be insured. Councilman Ray Varian reported on the Region II Abandoned and Dilapidated Property meeting he attended. Varian said there are several ways to raise money for the destruction of a building. One example given at the meeting was a “land bank” in which townspeople would contribute. This must be passed countywide, however, and not just by a municipality. He added there are a lot of requirements and procedures necessary prior to receiving any funding for the destruction of dilapidated properties. The council postponed setting a date for the upcoming Harvest Festival. Members want to know the schedule of the Wahama Band prior to setting it. In other action, the council:Discussed a veterans memorial project to be placed next to the bridge; See LIMIT | A5 — NEWS Obituaries: A2 Faith & Family: A4 Weather: A5 — SPORTS Football: B1 Volleyball: B2 NASCAR: B4 — FEATURES Classified: B5 Television: B6 Comics: B7 JOIN THE CONVERSATION What’s your take on today’s news?

Albert Proffitt’s replica of one of the four crosses found in the World Trade Center wreckage weighs 1,200 pounds Party in the Park Memorial RACINE — The 13th anniversary of the September 11, 2013, terrorist attacks is approaching in the next few weeks, and this year it will coincide with Racine’s Party in the Park. Albert Proffitt, a local resident, knew he had to do something to honor this anniversary during the three-day event. So as a contribution, Proffitt created a 17-foot replica of the World Trade Center cross, which is a group of steel beams found amongst the debris of both World Trade Center buildings that resembles the Christian cross. Proffitt, who’s been welding for 40 years, and said the cross weighs about 1,200 pounds. “The cross is bare like a Christmas tree, and everything else is like tinsel that goes on to deliver the message,” he said. Proffit also said the day of Sept. 11, 2001, was personal for him as well, as it was also the week that he was finalizing a divorce, retiring and selling his home.

Council member Sharon Older said this abolition could only be done by ordinance, and made a motion during Monday’s council meeting to create an ordinance to abolish the position. Roger Manley seconded and all council members, except Emerson Heighton, voted in favor of eliminating the position. The mayor reminded council that getting rid of the village administrator position does not eliminate the requirement of having a licensed water operator and sewer operator for the village’s systems. Vaughan said the mayor didn’t supervise the two village administrators enough. The mayor said the village department heads were all highly regarded at the state level and did not question their expertise.

In 1993, my Grandpaw Lineberry was very ill and in the hospital in Winston-Salem, N.C. I went to see Grandpaw in the hospital, and also to visit with Grandmaw and my mom, who was there to give assistance. One afternoon, Grandmaw’s pastor visited. That was the first time I met the Rev. Danny Shore. I took an instant liking to Danny. As I got to know Danny, I learned that he was into karate as a hobby. He had earned five black belts. But, I also learned that the man was an outstanding preacher of the Word of God. The following Sunday after first meeting him, I attended the church he pastored. About halfway through his message, I thought, “Wow! That man can preach!” After the service, I invited him to preach a series of revival meetings at the church I pastored. I had him pital at Winston-Salem. twice for revivals at that Three weeks later, on church, and twice at July 27, the Lord took the church I currently Danny to home in pastor, Faith Baptist of Heaven.

God gives me understanding from His Word. God’s principles undergird me. God’s affirmations strengthen my faith. So, when the Word tells us that no one actually pays attention about what the death of a Godly person means, we probably should pay attention, don’t you think? Should we not pay attention that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil, and that the righteous are taken that they may enter into peace and rest? Better yet, should we not pay attention that living a God-oriented, Bible-based life presents the best potential for the deathevent which will come to each of us? I think it prevails upon each of us to pay attention to this. If anything, as it involves the comfort it brings when A HUNGER FOR MORE might try to “swat” a few here and there, but don’t even allow that to steal your gaze from the face of Jesus. Getting caught up in trying to eliminate all distractions is too distracting a venture to venture upon. Eliminate those things that can be removed but recognize that you cannot cut yourself off completely from responsibility nor can you foresee every contingency that might introduce distraction back into your life. Also recognize that there is a spiritual power at work that does not want you to tune into God and will attempt to step up your distractions. Just as the Lord Jesus, in a critical time alone with God, found Himself the target of distracting ideas, suggestions, and temptations from the prince of that evil power (from Matthew 4:1-11, Mark 1:12-13, & Luke 4:113), you too will find yourself subject to notions and impulses that will try to grab hold of your attention and keep your gaze turned away from the Prince of Peace. These spiritual “flies” will buzz and buzz, but you and I need to just let them buzz while we stay busy with seeking God’s face in His Word, through prayer, and in service to Him for the sake of His kingdom. It is not a coincidence that a “nickname” for the devil is “Beelzebub” (meaning “Lord of the Flies”). He is indeed the “Lord of Distraction,” as well as, I might point out, the “Lord of Lies.” We too easily follow his leading over the leading of God Himself. Nevertheless, we have in God both true light and real life. Let us not allow ourselves then to be robbed of an unspeakably marvelous gift by failing to spend quality time with Him in prayer and in personal worship. Even the “Lord of Flies” is tiny and inconsequential compared to the King of all creation. “For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, the mighty, and the awesome God. … He is your praise. He is your God, who has done for you these great … things that your eyes have seen” (Deuteronomy 10:17a, 21 ESV).

Beyond the mere act of procreation, God gives each parent the responsibility of raising their children, training them to be able to survive in this world. Unlike animals, which are often born with a myriaad of survival instincts and abilities, God has given men very few such traits. We know how to breath and eat; and almost everything past this must be taught and learned. We teach our children how to eat, how to walk, how to talk, and then go on to instill moral values and academic knowledge. It is a serious task and one that should not be undertaken lightly. More than just teaching our children basic skills, we should also be mindful of the legacy that we leave behind for them. Most parents desire to give their children an inheritance and many people spend much of their lives working, not for their own comfort, but to provide their children a better inheritance than the one they received. This is not necessarily a bad thing; every generation needs to consider what they will be handing down to the next generation. Too often, however, we are so caught up in our physical pursuits that we forget the best thing we can leave to our children and grandchildren is an eternal inheritance. All earthly wealth will fade over time, but there is an an “inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you,” (1 Peter 1:4) and we can hand this treasure on down to future generations if we ourselves possess it strongly. No earthly inheritance can compare to the spiritual treasure that is a genuine eternal inheritance in heaven. As Jesus reminds us, earthly wealth soon fades (cf. Matthew 6:19). Solomon was mindful of this fact when he wrote Ecclesiastes, realizing that after he was done building all his many buildings, and accumulating wealth, it was likely that the next generation would squander what he had done, and eventually all that he had done would be gone (cf. Ecclesiastes 2:18-19, 4:16). Indeed, none of Solomon’s many vaunted buildings remain to grace us with their presence today. Likewise, the things we build in this world will also fade away with time, no matter how hard we worked for them. Yet a spiritual inheritance, rightly passed down, will have eternal benefits for every generation that partakes of it. We cannot pass on something that we ourselves do not possess. We cannot teach what we ourselves do not know. Our children can not profit from following our example unless we are choosing to live a worthy life. Thus, if we desire for our children to receive a goodly spiritual inheritance, than it follows that we must ourselves invest in spiritual things. We should invest in developing our faith so that we might pass it on to our descendants. Paul commented to Timothy, “I call to remembrance the genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am persuaded is in you also.” (2 Timothy 1:5) Timothy had received a firm foundation of faith from his mother and grandmother upon which to build his own faith. This faith, based in God’s word (2 Timothy 3:15, Romans 10:10), was able to guide Timothy, both as he himself served God, and as he strove to teach others God’s word. Again, we cannot pass on what we do not possess. If faith comes by hearing the word of God, the more we study God’s word, the stronger our faith should be. More than just hearing and reading the Word, we must also strive to put it into practice. God’s word is meant to be more than an intellectual exercise; it is a guide for how we live. Faith without works is a dead faith (James 2:26). It is when the word of God is obeyed that it truly imparts life to the hearer (cf Romans 2:6-8). If we have faith and righteousness in our lives, we then need to take the next step and impart these things on to others, our children and grandchildren not the least. We should be making sure that we are teaching our offspring what God says to do, and we are training them in righteous behavior, so that after we are gone, they will know how to live and they will, indeed, be living that way. Paul writes, “you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord.” (Ephesians 6:2) Notice the use of the word “training.” Children do not learn by accident or osmosis, at least children seldom learn good things that way. Training involves learning, practice, and work. Nobody would expect to train an athlete or a doctor merely by leaving them to their own devices and figuring the necessary skills will show themselves in time. In the same way, spiritual discipline takes work and we should work with our children to instill in them the right lessons, remembering that bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness has value both for the life that is and that which is to come.” (1 Timothy 4:8). Let us take the time to do that which is necessary to leave our children an inheritance that matters. If you would like to begin the journey of laying up spiritual treasures for yourself and others, we invite you to study and worship with us at the Church of Christ, 197 Chapel Drive, Gallipolis. At the Church of Christ, we seek to serve God now that we might be with Him then, and to so serve, all of our lives. �LOCAL Daily Sentinel Friday, August 29, 2014 A5 McDavis delivers Ohio’s address Staff report TDSnews@civitasmedia.com ATHENS — In opening his State of the University address, President Roderick J. McDavis reflected on Ohio University’s transformation since he first took office 10 years ago. “Ten years has given me pause to reflect on Ohio University’s story and the chapters that have been added since I assumed office,” McDavis said. “As we gather today, evidence of our growth is all over campus.” In a speech peppered with university points of pride, McDavis talked about the many transformations Ohio University has experienced over the last decade that have enhanced all aspects of the student experience and rank Ohio in the top 2.2 percent of the world’s higher education institutions for its quality of education. He went on to cite many examples of the transformation that Ohio is effecting in the community and around the globe:Transforming affordability: “The university is committed to lessening the financial strain on students and graduates.

Also during that time, all military personnel will be asked to raise their hands so that they can be recognized and honored. Proffitt has also invited the Ohio Patriot Guard Riders, the Christian Motorcycle Association, Veterans of Foreign Wars and any church group that want to attend. He also asked that if any church groups have tea cup candles to donate for a special ceremony during “Amazing Grace” to bring them to the event. “We’re doing it for the people who honored us, so we’ve got to honor them,” he said. “We wouldn’t be doing Party in the Park if the military didn’t risk their lives.” LOCAL STOCKS AEP (NYSE) — 53.32 Akzo (NASDAQ) — 23.50 Ashland Inc.

The mayor said he wanted it noted in the minutes that the administration was strongly recommending the waterline replacement project and felt it was wrong of village council to not go forward. Council was then presented with copies of Resolution 199-14, which is a resolution authorizing Middleport’s mayor to prepare and submit an application to participate in the Ohio Public Works Commission State Capital Improvement Program and to execute contracts as required. This was explained as an application for a grant and loan to pave streets with the village supplying up “I take great pride in the accomplishments and strategic direction of the past decade,” McDavis said. “But even more invigorating is contemplating what is yet to come. The question facing forward-thinking leaders of the day is this: How can we best focus intellectual and creative resources to effect positive change in the world?” The answer, McDavis explained, inspired The Ohio Innovation Strategy, an emerging process for future investment with innovation to a 26 percent match for the approximately $90,000 project, which could make the cost up to $23,000. Manley made a motion to adopt the resolution and Heighton seconded. Council voted with six yes votes to approve. The council approved Corrections Cpl. Amy Hart as a signer on the village’s Jail Commissary account. The mayor said the basketball court in Ferman Moore Park behind village hall will soon be resurfaced and a walking path constructed. These projects are both paid for with funds from a Meigs County Health Department grant. Manley said he thought the cemeteries had high grass and looked horrible. He said council was not criticizing the police or fire departments. Resident Bruce Martin spoke as a central focus. The strategy identifies areas of strength, impact and collaboration to address significant societal problems. According to McDavis, four portfolios where the university has strengths have already been identified — Energy, Environment and the Economy; Digitally Connected World; Health and Wellness and Vibrant Societies and Economies. By investing in areas of strength, Ohio University will advance its efforts to effect positive change in Southern Local Wellness Center Valley Healthcare for All Ages Phone: (740) 949-2348 • Fax: (740) 949-2536 s 7E CAN ADJUST FEES BASED ON FAMILY SIZE � INCOME �IF QUALIlED s 3LIDING FEE SCALE s -OST INSURANCE � (-/�S ACCEPTED s /HIO -EDICAID APPROVED Welcoming students, staff & community Operated by Wirt County Health Services Association, Inc. 60523748 Attention: Denture Sufferers!

Emerson, a dome-shelled Galapagos tortoise estimated to be about 100 years old, arrived at the Toledo Zoo on Wednesday evening from the San Diego Zoo. He was escorted by Toledo Zoo personnel on his FedEx flight to Detroit before being driven to Toledo and uncrated inside a heated shed, dubbed the “torta-bode,” for the night. “He is a spectacular animal,” R. Andrew Odum, the Toledo Zoo’s curator of herpetology, said. “He’s a very majestic, statesman tortoise.” Emerson arrived at the zoo about 8:30 p.m., greeted by a crowd of staff members. He emerged from his yellow wooden transport crate with no hesitation and explored his new surroundings. Handlers rewarded him with carrot and sweet potato treats and a neck rub. Later this year, the zoo also will receive three 2-year-old Galapagos tortoises from the Gladys Porter Zoo in Brownsville, Texas. The trio, who do not yet have names, will be kept in the zoo’s hospital for their 60-day quarantine period before going on display in the Reptile House. Because of their much smaller size, they will not be housed with Emerson until they grow up a bit. The young tortoises won’t be of breeding age until they are about 20 or 25 years old, but the zoo plans to participate in a breeding program with them. Jeff Sailer, executive director of the Toledo Zoo, said visitors will be able to compare the hulking, centenarian Emerson to the young tortoises, which can be picked up with one hand. Families will watch the youngsters grow up and share that experience with several generations. “The little ones could be here for 150 years or more,” Mr. Sailer said. No one yet knows the average lifespan of a Galapagos tortoise because they live so long. Tracking the animals with known hatching dates takes several generations of humans, but experts estimate the giant reptiles may live anywhere from 150 to 200 years. Emerson is the zoo’s first Galapagos tortoise since 1983 when his predecessor, Galopy, was sent to San Diego by former Toledo Zoo We’ve Got Money to Lend! 740-949-2210 60526109 60423165 By Alexandra Mester AP Photo Val Hornyak, of the Toledo Zoo, feeds a carrot to Emerson, Galapagos tortoise, as he is delivered and unboxed Wednesday in Toledo, Ohio. Emerson is a wild-born tortoise estimated at 100 years old. He is being donated by the San Diego Zoo. director William Dennler at the recommendation of the Galapagos Tortoise Species Survival Plan. Galopy was also a wild-born tortoise and was the much-beloved face of the Toledo Zoo for 32 years. Many area residents have memories of riding atop the reptile’s dome shell in the Wonder Valley children’s zoo. Link to Galopy Galopy was tortoise No. 29 in San Diego. Emerson was No. 30, having arrived there the same year. The two were housed together with other members of the San Diego tortoise group. “This tortoise knew Galopy, and knew him well,” Mr. Odum said. “So that’s pretty neat.” Records from the San Diego Zoo indicate Galopy had been undergoing repeated diagnostic testing and treatment for extreme generalized edema. He died in the San Diego zoo’s hospital in March, 1995, at an estimated age of about 75. A definitive cause of death could not be determined, but the necropsy report suggested renal or thyroid disease as possibilities. Galapagos tortoises, an endangered species, are one of the foremost examples of the impact of human activity on the natural world and are a common symbol of the need for conservation. Because they can live for months without food or water, their populations were decimated in the 1800s when whalers rounded them up to store aboard ships as a reliable source of fresh meat. Now, predators and habitat destruction from invasive species are the primary concern. “These are one of the most terrific ambassadors of any species,” Mr. Odum said. “We are extremely excited to have them here.” Tommy Owens, lead reptile keeper at the San Diego Zoo, knew and cared for Emerson for a little more than 13 years. “We’re happy he’s going to a place where he can be an ambassador for Galapagos tortoises,” Mr. Owens said. “They are one of those animals in zoos that people most of the time wouldn’t have an opportunity to see otherwise. They leave an impression that lasts for a lifetime.” Born in the wild Emerson was born in the wild on the Galapagos Islands before being brought to the United States, so his age and history are only a best guess. Conflicting genetic tests to determine his subspecies indicate he is either a natural hybrid of tortoises from the Wolf and Alcedo volcanoes on Isabela Island or is from Santiago Island. “He is unique genetically,” Mr. Odum said. “There is nothing in the United States similar.” The three youngsters will be of the subspecies from Darwin Volcano on Isabela Island. Before being loaned to San Diego in 1983, Emerson was at the St. Louis Zoo. In a quasi three-way agreement, the St. Louis Zoo formally donated Emerson to the San Diego Zoo last month, so he could then be donated from San Diego to the Toledo Zoo. A spokesman with the St. Louis Zoo said records show the tortoise arrived there on New Year’s Eve, 1959, but there are no records that say exactly where Emerson came from other than having been acquired through a “private source.” “Record-keeping back then wasn’t like what it is now,” Mr. Sailer said. Mr. Odum said that given Emerson’s age and characteristics, he could be one of 180 tortoises brought to the states from Isabela Island in 1928 by Charles H. Townsend. The New York Zoological Society naturalist and director of the New York Aquarium was one of the first to notice the plight of Galapagos tortoises after examining logbooks from whaling ships and realizing how many had been taken. He led an expedition to the archipelago in an attempt to preserve them. “I’m fairly confident Emerson is one of the original Townsend animals,” Mr. Odum said.

The weather will dictate how long Emerson will be on exhibit each year. Tortoises can be outside in cooler temperatures as long as there is strong sunshine they can absorb to warm themselves, but overcast and wet days require warmer air temperatures. In the winter, Emerson will be moved into an extralarge shed with heated floors. Mr. Sailer said Emerson will have a temporary partial-year exhibit for three to five years until a permanent, year-round home for the Galapagos tortoises can be built. “That will be part of the next capital outlay plan that we’re working on right now,” Mr. Sailer said. The zoo is working on ideas for the exhibit to allow visitors to have some up-close experiences with the animals, though visitors will not be able to ride them as was done with Galopy years ago. Mr. Sailer said zoos have done away with tortoise rides over the years for the safety and well-being of the animals. Galapagos tortoises are herbivores and have very efficient digestive systems that allow them to survive on foods with low nutrient content. They will eat most greens such as leaves, hay, grass, and shrubbery, and also enjoy cacti. An adult tortoise like Emerson may eat 4 or 5 pounds of dry grasses in a week. Tops in Ohio Emerson will be Ohio’s top tortoise. In Galapagos tortoise exhibits in accredited Ohio zoos, Emerson is the largest and oldest tortoise. The Akron Zoo has two captive-hatched tortoises that are 25 years old. One weighs a little more than 300 pounds, while the second has a genetic abnormality that affects its growth and is much smaller, at about 160 pounds. The Cincinnati Zoo has four 6-year-old tortoises, also hatched in captivity, ranging in weight from 55 to 65 pounds. The Cleveland and Columbus zoos have exhibits of Aldabra tortoises, a species of giant tortoise found on the Aldabra Atoll off the east coast of Africa north of Madagascar. In the future, the Toledo Zoo also hopes to acquire an adult female Galapagos tortoise as a companion for Emerson. The two would not be prevented from breeding, but would not be a formal part of a breeding program because Emerson’s genetics are not part of the Species Survival Plan. As Emerson explored his new home Monday night, zoo staffers were excited to greet the behemoth reptile. “He’s a grand old man,” Mr. Odum said. �Sports Daily Sentinel Friday, August 29, 2014 s Page B1 Hannan hosts Pike Eastern in Week 1 Point, Wahama open season on the road By Alex Hawley ahawley@civitasmedia.com Bryan Walters | file photo Point Pleasant receiver Jon Peterson (1) breaks away from three Ripley defenders during a 2013 Week 2 regular season contest at Ohio Valley Bank Track and Field in Point Pleasant, W.Va.

See HANNAN | B2 Ironmen picked to win SEOAL title By Craig Dunn Special to OVP LOGAN, Ohio — In what will be, at least for the time being, the final time the Southeastern Ohio Athletic League fields at least five football teams, SEOAL media predict the Jackson Ironmen will prevail. A panel of a dozen sportswriters, broadcasters and Internet personnel — with each conference school represented by at least one voter — picked the Ironmen to dethrone the defending champion Logan Chieftains and earn their third conference crown in four years. The poll was again conducted by The Logan Daily News. Jackson was selected for first place on 10 of 12 ballots and received 57 out of a possible 60 points. The Ironmen were named runner-up on one ballot and third on another. Points are awarded on a 5-4-3-2-1 basis for first place through fifth. Logan (46 points) garnered the other two firstplace votes while accumulating six runner-up ballots and four third-place votes. Portsmouth (35 points) was tabbed for third, receiving four second-place votes, four third-place mentions, three fourth-places and one fifth place. Gallia Academy (24) ran the voting gamut between second and fifth, receiving one second-place vote, three thirds, three fourths and five fifths. The Blue Devils were picked for fourth, ahead of Warren (18), which had its 12 votes split between six fourthplaces and a half-dozen fifths. Last fall, SEOAL media picked Gallia Academy to defend its 2012 crown, but Logan won its first title (and 26th overall) since 2009 while Jackson placed second and Gallipolis, Portsmouth and Warren all tied for third. If the order of anticipated finish holds up, the league’s marquee showdown will be Friday, Oct. 10, when Logan visits Jackson for a week-seven clash. This is the final season for Portsmouth, which leaves the SEOAL after the current school year. Gallia Academy, Jackson, Logan and Warren will remain together in a four-team conference beginning with the 2015 football season. The annual Southeastern Ohio Athletic League preseason football poll, conducted by The Logan Daily News, is as follows. Firstplace votes are in parenthesis, followed by total points received (maximum of 60 possible points) ranked on a 5-4-3-2-1 basis: 1. Jackson (10) 57; 2. Logan (2) 46; 3. Portsmouth 35; 4.

OSU prepared for Navy’s offense COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — It’s already difficult enough to play Navy because of the tough, dedicated and disciplined players demanded by any service academy. “These guys are guys who are trained to be fearless and they’re trained to be relentless,” Ohio State linebacker Joshua Perry said. “So we know that we have to go full-go the whole game. Are we prepared to play 60 minutes? Yeah.” But there’s more. On top of that, No. 5 Ohio State must get ready for the Midshipmen’s lethal and unique offense when they meet on Saturday in Baltimore. Navy is one of the few full-time practitioners of the triple-option left at the college level. Last year, Ohio State’s defense was riddled in consecutive losses to end the season after a 24-game winning streak. Cornerback Doran Grant was asked whether he was worried about how good the pass defense would be this season. “That’s not what we’re worried about,” he said. “We’re worried about beating Navy. That’s what we’ve been focused on this training camp. They have a unique style of playing offense.” The Buckeyes, who are opening their 125th season, have an idea what they’re up against. Navy came into Ohio Stadium to open the 2009 season against an Ohio State team that would end up going 11-2, winning the Big Ten and then beating No. 7 Oregon in the Rose Bowl. And the Midshipmen almost left Columbus with a victory. Navy cut a 13-point halftime deficit to two with 2:23 left — and had a two-point conversion pass to tie it. But Ricky Dobbs’ throw was picked off by linebacker Brian Rolle and he returned it for two points the other way to seal a 31-27 victory. The current Midshipmen, coming off a 9-4 season which included a win in the Armed Forces Bowl, still follow the same offensive philosophy under seventh-year head coach Ken Niumatalolo. “We’ve got to try to find every edge and do everything we can,” he said earlier this week of the Season 1.

Navy has players who might not be as big or as fast as those at Top-25 powerhouses, but it levels the playing field by using the option. The read-and-react offense, predicated on split-second decisions, sterling execution and quickness, is unique in many ways. “We feel we have a wrinkle for every (question),” offensive coordinator Ivan Jasper said with a chuckle. “Whether it’s going to work or not, we’ll see.” Junior quarterback Keenan Reynolds leads an offense that was No. 2 in the Football Bowl Subdivision last year in rushing at 325.4 yards per game. Reynolds ran for 1,346 yards and 31 touchdowns. “He’s their guy,” Perry said. “He’s a guy who isn’t necessarily a burner, speedwise, but he has really good vision and he knows where the seams are. Once he puts his foot on the ground and he gets vertical, that’s what he likes to do. We have to take really good angles. We can’t overrun anything.” quarterback Joe Burrow, who committed to The Ohio State University over the summer. Burrow threw for 3,721 yards with a 71.2 completion percentage in his junior year at Athens, while throwing 47 touchdowns and just seven interceptions. 5. The road team has won six consecutive times in the series and AHS has not defeated GAHS in Athens County in over 10 seasons. Gallia Academy is 44-38-3 against the Bulldogs all-time.

(AP) — Clint Trickett made a confession of sorts that might have best been saved for after Nick Saban unleashes Alabama’s defense on the West Virginia quarterback. Trickett’s first kiss was with Saban’s daughter, Kristen. “I don’t know if I should have said that,” Trickett said earlier this week. “For clarification, we were like 6 years old.” Trickett’s father, Rick, was LSU’s offensive line coach for one season in 2000 when Saban became the Tigers’ head coach. The elder Trickett left the following season for West Virginia, where he spent six seasons. He’s been the offensive line coach at Florida State since 2007. Clint Trickett graduated from Florida State last year, transferred to West Virginia and was eligible to play immediately. He started seven games, passing for seven touchdowns with seven interceptions, and underwent offseason surgery in January on his throwing shoulder. He’ll get the first real test of that repaired shoulder Saturday when the Mountaineers play No. 2 Alabama at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta. “Probably the biggest game I’ve been a part of,” Trickett said. Trickett missed spring practice and so far has had no issues with his arm. Nearly all of the talk has been about his continued grasp of West Virginia’s offense and ability to find any glitches in an Alabama defense that allowed just 13.9 points per game last season. “Every team has strengths and weaknesses,” Trickett said. “They just happen to have more strengths than weaknesses, and we got to expose those few weaknesses out there.” In his first start a year ago, Trickett led the Mountaineers to a 30-21 win over then-No. 11 Oklahoma State but otherwise had a forgettable season, completing just 53 percent of his pass attempts as West Virginia finished 4-8. Trickett threw for more than 250 yards four times, including a season-best 356 yards in a triple-overtime loss to Iowa State. But there also was a 9-for-28 performance against Baylor. Still, Saban saw enough on film to take notice. “When Clint Trickett played quarterback last year, I think that he did a really good job for them,” Saban said. The knock on Trickett was that he had little time to learn the complexities of coach Dana Holgorsen’s offense. Trickett was hampered by an inability to change plays at the line of scrimmage. “I didn’t fully understand why I wasn’t starting at the beginning of the year last year at the time, but now I do and I wasn’t ready to go,” Trickett said. “Now I am ready to go.” At the start of fall practice, Holgorsen said Trickett’s sense of urgency was “night and day” compared to any point last year. “It’s just nice to be able to not have to coach a guy every single play,” Holgorsen said. West Virginia offensive coordinator Shannon Dawson said Trickett has the chance to silence his doubters. “I think he’s prepared,” Dawson said. “This camp has been a good one for him. He’s definitely been a different person. He’s just got to go out there and play within himself. Don’t try to go out there and be superman.” Marshall QB Cato overcomes personal struggles CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Marshall University’s mantra, shaped from the worst disaster in U.S. sports history, is “From the ashes, we rose.” The same could be said for quarterback Rakeem Cato. Tragedy to glory is still a work in progress for Cato, who brings big expectations for a senior season at Marshall that starts Saturday at Miami, Ohio. Like the Marshall program that was on the brink of extinction but persevered after a 1970 plane crash killed all 75 aboard, Cato overcame personal setbacks growing up in the Liberty City section of Miami, Florida. His mother, Juannese, died of pneumonia in 2005 when he was 13. He had never met his father, who was in prison since before he was born. Through it all, the ultracompetitive Cato never gave up. He recalled that on the same the day of his mother’s death, he went on to play in a baseball game. The next day, he went to school. His passion was football, which his mother first had signed him up for at age 6. “When my mom passed, I knew I had to man up quick,” Cato said. “I was always a leader. I never was a follower. I had to accomplish to be successful not only for me but my family to make her proud. I just wanted to do the right thing.” The long list to help Cato make the transition from middle school to manhood included older sister Shanrikia, his grandparents, the families of team- mates T.Y. Hilton, Tommy Shuler and Miami Central coach Telly Lockette. In 2010, Cato transferred from Miami Springs to Miami Central for his senior season. Lockette “was the father figure that I never had,” Cato said. “He took me in like I was his own.” But Cato’s bouts with anger got him in trouble. “His dad going to prison before he was born. His mom dying at 13. Moving from house to house and there’s no real stability … he had a lot to be angry about,” said Lockette, now the running backs coach at South Florida. “You’ve got to understand, his sanctuary is the football field. He competes like crazy. If something goes wrong, he’s mad at himself and he’s mad at somebody on the field.” It happened after Cato misread a play during a game in Texas. He was benched and, according to Lockette, nearly got kicked off the team. In the state playoffs, Lockette’s wife found Cato crying near a back gate after a poor first half against Miami Northwestern. After some consoling, Cato responded with a great second half to beat Louisville-bound Teddy Bridgewater. Three weeks later, Cato rallied Miami Central from a 17-0 deficit to beat Orlando Dr. Phillips for the Florida 6A championship. During his freshman year at Marshall, Cato had a sideline meltdown during a rainy loss at Central Florida. He played poorly and lost the starting job for a month. He’s been clicking ever since. Cato has thrown for more than 3,900 yards in two straight seasons, including a touchdown pass in 32 consecutive games. He’s poised to surpass former first-round draft picks Chad Pennington and Byron Leftwich on Marshall’s career passing charts. Cato’s father, Keith Jones, is now out of prison. The pair started talking about a year ago, trying in a small way to make up for 21 years of missed athletic events, family gatherings and simply bonding. And Cato got to hear the words every son wants to hear from his dad. “We just talk about personal life. We talk about football, of course,” Cato said. “He was telling about all the mistakes he went through. He was always thinking about me. He also told me he loved me — he thought about me every day while he was in jail.” Shuler remembered the times that Cato would come to his house and watch “We Are Marshall,” the 2006 film about the 1970 plane crash starring Matthew McConaughey. “We watched it over and over,” said Shuler, who like Cato is a senior at Marshall. “We made our mind up that we want to play for that program and help that program come up and win a championship.” For Cato, that quest starts Saturday. “I’m just trying to get better as the days go on, to be the best quarterback of Marshall University,” Cato said.

(AP) — Tony Stewart will return to Sprint Cup competition Sunday night at Atlanta Motor Speedway, ending a three-race hiatus taken after he struck and killed a fellow driver during a dirt-track race. The three-time NASCAR champion has not raced since his car hit Kevin Ward Jr. at an Aug. 9 sprint car event in upstate New York. Stewart pulled out of the NASCAR race at Watkins Glen the next morning, then skipped races at Michigan and Bristol Motor Speedway. Stewart, who was described by police as “visibly shaken” the night of Ward’s death, has been in seclusion ever since. Stewart-Haas Racing executive vice president Brett Frood has said the emphasis was on giving Stewart time needed to get him “in a better place than he is.” Stewart’s only comment since the Stephen M. Dowell | Orlando Sentinel | MCT crash was a statement the day after Tony Stewart answers questions during NASCAR Media Day on Thursday, Feb. 13, 2014, at Daytona the crash in which he said “there aren’t International Speedway in Daytona, Fla. words to describe the sadness I feel about the accident that took the life of Kevin Ward Jr.” Ward had climbed from his car after it had spun while racing for position with Stewart. The 20-year-old walked down onto the racing surface waving his arms in an apparent attempt to confront Stewart. Authorities said the first car to pass Ward had to swerve to miss hitting him. The front of Stewart’s car then appeared to clear Ward, but Ward was struck by the right rear tire and hurtled through the air. He died of blunt force trauma. Stewart will return with a decision pending on whether he will be charged in Ward’s death. Ontario County Sheriff Philip Povero has said investigators did not have any evidence to support criminal intent by Stewart. Povero said Thursday the investigation is still ongoing. Meanwhile, the 43-year-old NASCAR superstar will move forward with his career and attempt to salvage his season. NASCAR released a statement saying that Stewart was eligible to return because he “has received all necessary clearances required to return to all racing activities.” NASCAR said it would have no further comment until President Mike Helton speaks Friday afternoon. Stewart, who has 48 career Cup wins in 542 starts, is one of the biggest stars in the garage. His peers have been protective of him as questions emerged in the aftermath of the crash, and it pained them that Stewart was grieving in private and had cut off communication with so many of them. He will talk to the media for the first time since the fatal crash on Friday. NASCAR rules state a driver must attempt to either qualify or race the car in every points-paying event to be eligible for Chase for the Sprint Cup championship, unless a waiver is granted. There was no immediate word if NASCAR would grant that waiver. Since Ward’s death, NASCAR has announced a rule that prohibits drivers from exiting from a crashed or disabled vehicle — unless it is on fire — until safety personnel arrive. Last week, Denny Hamlin crashed while leading at Bristol and stayed in his car until safety personnel arrived. But Hamlin then exited his vehicle and angrily tossed a safety device at Kevin Harvick as he passed by moments later. He was not penalized.

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — Growing up in West Virginia, Nick Saban would peek through the rails at the old WVU Fieldhouse as Jerry West played basketball far below. Watching West Virginia play football, meanwhile, “was like the highlight of my year,” Saban said. When Saban leads No. 2 Alabama against the Mountaineers in Atlanta’s Georgia Dome, his priority as always on fall Saturdays will be to win a football game — even against his home state program. He seemed to enjoy waxing nostalgic this week about his favorite boyhood team in memories that include the heartache of listening to his transistor radio when West and the Mountaineers fell 71-70 — yes, Saban remembers the score — to California in the 1959 national championship game. “You don’t forget stuff like that,” Saban said, “but now I’m Alabama’s coach. I’m an Alabama fan. We don’t really have to be concerned about any of that. We want to do what’s best for our team and the relationships that we have here. “But we also respect their traditions and the relationships that we’ve developed through the years in West Virginia.” Those ties will be evidenced by friends and family traveling to Atlanta for the game, people who say they saw Saban’s potential way back when. That group includes U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin, a former West Virginia governor, who grew up less than 10 miles away from the Sabans and still calls him “one of my best friends in the whole world.” Manchin played on youth sports teams coached by Saban’s father, Nick Sr., who also operated a service station while running an ice cream 60530800 “Why I love my career in advertising... Every day brings a different challenge and opportunity. Helping these businesses with their goals to achieve additional business gives me a feeling of accomplishment. Working for a newspaper company like Civitas Media gives me great opportunities to sell more than just traditional newspaper advertising. We now can offer web, video, mobile and magazines.

Nick Sr., Manchin said, “was a builder of men” and his son was always there soaking it in when he wasn’t helping out by washing cars or pumping gas. “He had all the genes for it and he had the tutelage of his father, who was very rigid and stoic about how he did things,” Manchin recalled. “You just saw the success come. He saw it by hard work, sacrificing, planning. He knew what it took to succeed, and Nick took it to the next level. “I always thought he would be the greatest football coach, I believe, in the country today and will go down in history as one of the greatest. And it’s all because of that coal-mining town.” Nick Sr. died of a heart attack in 1973 when the undersized Saban, spurned by the Mountaineers, was playing baseball and football at Kent State. Both Manchin and Saban played quarterback in high school. Manchin graduated from Farmington High in 1965, Saban from Monongah High in 1969. “The biggest mistake WVU ever made was not offering young Nick Saban a scholarship,” said Manchin, whose West Virginia career was ended early by a knee injury. “He was one of the best athletes to ever come out of the area. His size gave them pause to ever offer him a scholarship.” Sharing childhood memories weren’t the only time Saban showed a lighter side leading up to this game. He also challenged Manchin and others, including Florida coach Will Muschamp, to participate in the ice bucket challenge that’s gone viral in efforts to raise funds to fight Lou Gehrig’s disease. Manchin’s wife, Gayle, dumped the senator with ice water. Manchin said this game is one instance where he’ll be rooting against Saban. �CLASSIFIED Daily Sentinel Friday, August 29, 2014 B5 COUNTY : MEIGS COUNTY : MEIGS LEGALS Professional Services COUNTY : MEIGS Stanley Tree Trimming & Removal • Prompt and Quality Work • Reasonable Rates • Insured • Experienced • References Available The following applications and/or verified complaints were received, and the following draft, proposed and final actions were issued, by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (Ohio EPA) last week.

Harsh, but accurate. The defending AFC North champions are in what amounts to uncharted territory for their franchise. They’ve put together the best streak of regular-season success since their debut in 1968, reaching the playoffs three years in a row. Now, it’s time for the next step. They’ve gone 0-3 in the postseason over the past three years, extending one of the NFL’s longest streaks of playoff futility. They haven’t won a playoff game since the 1990 season, tied for the sixth-longest such drought. Mark Gail | MCT They’ve kept their roster Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (18) runs for a 73-yard virtually intact, settled on touchdown after catching a pass on the first play of the game during the first half at FedEx Field in Landover, MD, Sunday, Andy Dalton as their leader September 23, 2012. by giving him a six-year extension, and set out to do much more than win another division championship. “We have to win one in the playoffs,” owner Mike Brown said. “We are fully aware that didn’t happen. It sticks in our craw. First, we have to get the opportunity again. “That is a long, hard road. We have a tough schedule, we respect our opponents, we take nothing for granted. But in our hearts — in my heart, too — I think we stack up OK and we are anxious to prove we are going to be a successful team again.” Success will be defined by whether they get to the playoffs and keep going past that first game. Things to watch in the Bengals’ attempt to break their long drought: CAN DALTON BREAK THROUGH: He’s had three of the best regular seasons by any NFL newcomer.

He’s looking to do even more as he’s coming off another sensational season — fifth in the NFL in yards receiving (1,426), sixth in catches (98). His 260 catches are the most in NFL history for a player in his first three seasons. GENO’S RETURN: Defensive tackle Geno Atkins tore the ACL in his right knee last Oct. 31, costing the defense one of the NFL’s top interior linemen. It still finished third overall in yards allowed. Atkins is back, though not yet in full form. He got into the third preseason game for 13 plays and had trouble getting through blockers. Cincinnati offered rising star linebacker Vontaze Burfict a contract extension, but lost defensive end Michael Johnson to free agency and could use Atkins back in form to help pressure quarterbacks. The Bengals also are looking for a breakout year from end Margus Hunt, a second-round pick in 2013 who played sparingly as a rookie. MARVIN’S CHALLENGE: Dalton isn’t the only one getting a lot of attention in the playoff-winor-else spotlight. Marvin Lewis is 0-5 in the playoffs as the Bengals head coach. He has two new coordinators as he enters his 12th season — Jackson on offense, Paul Guenther on defense. Although he got a one-year extension through the 2015 season, Lewis has a lot at stake. Kosar have led their teams to the playoffs in each of their first three seasons as Dalton did. Yet no matter how well Dalton has played during the regular season, he’d done his worst in the three playoff games, including a 27-10 loss to San Diego last season that featured his three turnovers in the second half. Much of it falls on his shoulders. “I don’t feel any added pressure,” he said. “I don’t think this team does. We have improved every year. We haven’t gotten the win in the playoffs that we had been planning to get, but the team has gotten better overall.” GIO AND THE NEW GUY: New offensive coordinator Hue Jackson wants the Bengals to be more balanced to take some of the pressure off Dalton. They drafted Jeremy Hill in the second round and installed him as the backup to Giovani Bernard, who takes over for BenJarvus Green-Ellis as the starter. Cincinnati’s running game ranked 18th in the league last season. “Everybody says, ‘Run the ball and the pressure will be taken off (Dalton),’ but if you don’t run it effectively it won’t do that,” Jackson said.

Gibson, a 4-star recruit from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., who is rated one of the top dual threat quarterbacks in the 2015 recruiting class, might be dropping hints Ohio State is his favorite. He wore Ohio State cleats in his team’s game televised by ESPN on Sunday and a teammate called him an Ohio State commitment. Harris, a 5-star recruit from Madison, Ky., originally committed to Michigan but changed his mind. His other leading schools are Alabama, Florida, Kentucky and Texas A&M. Sweat, of Chesapeake, Va., is ESPN. com’s No. 1 overall recruit. He also has scheduled visits to Virginia Tech, Georgia, Florida State and Oregon. Four-star receiver Van Jefferson, son of former NFL receiver Shawn Jefferson, chose Georgia over Ohio State on Monday. OSU’s interest was strong but his decision was not a surprise. Ohio State has verbal commitments from 15 recruits so far in its 2015 class. Ten of those are defensive players. Don Speck/The Lima News Ohio State tight end Jeff Heuerman salutes the crowd after catching a touchdown pass against Michigan last season.

Five 91 Days until kickoff Promotional Packages Starting At... < QUARTERBACKS < RECEIVERS Redshirt freshman J.T. Barrett thought he was going to spend every game day this fall signaling in plays from the sidelines to Braxton Miller. His assignment changed radically when a torn labrum ended Miller’s season. Navy’s Keenan Reynolds rushed for 1,346 yards last season, second among NCAA Division I quarterbacks, and passed for 1,057 yards and 8 touchdowns. He scored 31 rushing TDs. He was intercepted only twice, but averaged just under10 pass attempts per game. Advantage: Navy OSU is still looking for a consistent, go-to receiver. Devin Smith (44 catches, 8 TDs) is a big play guy but he caught only six passes in the last five games last season. Dontre Wilson is expected to be more explosive in the hybrid role and Jeff Heuerman (26 catches) might be the best tight end in the Big Ten. Navy’s starting wide receivers are both first-year starters. But in an offense where the leading receiver had 13 catches last season, that is not a huge concern. Advantage: Ohio State < RUNNING BACKS Left tackle Taylor Decker will be surrounded by four first-year starters. Finding replacements at those positions probably was Ohio State’s biggest concern before Miller’s injury. The Midshipmen have four returning starters on the line. Left tackle Bradyn Heap and right guard Jake Zuzek, who has started 26 straight games, are the leaders of this group. Advantage: Ohio State Probably no running back is going to dominate the ground game the way Carlos Hyde did last season when he ran for 1,521 yards. Sophomore Ezekiel Elliott appears to be the leading candidate to replace Hyde as the No. 1 back. Navy spreads the wealth around in its triple option offense. Fullbacks Chris Swaim (420 yards) and Noah Copeland (339 yards), slot backs Geoffrey Whiteside (363 yards) and Brandon DeSanders (340 yards) all took their turns carrying the football last season.

Spence will miss this game and next week’s game because of testing positive for a banned supplement. Navy nose guard Bernard Sera checks in at 303 pounds, but the Midshipmen’s two defensive ends in their 3-4 defense, Paul Quessenberry and Will Anthony, weigh 251 pounds and 246 pounds. Only defensive starters weigh more than 231 pounds. Advantage: Ohio State < LINEBACKERS Curtis Grant and Joshua Perry are returning starters for OSU. Five-star freshman Raekwon McMillan could challenge for playing time. Replacing two starting inside linebackers is one of the big questions for Navy. Outside linebacker Chris Johnson (84 tackles) and Jordan Drake, who has moved from outside linebacker to the inside, are returning starters. Advantage: Ohio State < DEFENSIVE BACKS With new starters at three positions, OSU promises it will improve on last year’s disastrous pass defense. Cornerback Doran Grant is the only returning starter. Free safety Parrish Gaines and cornerback Brendon Clements each had three interceptions last season for Navy. Advantage: Ohio State COLUMBUS – J.T. Barrett’s name has already been spoken more in the last two weeks than it would have been the entire football season under normal circumstances. Until Braxton Miller’s seasonending injury, many Ohio State fans would have had a hard time Jim identifying him Naveau in a picture if he Columnist was out of uniform. He was possibly, but not certainly, the quarterback of the future. Then the future got here in a hurry. Now, the hope is that he can do enough that Ohio State could still win 10, 11, maybe 12 games without its most important player, maybe the most important player on any team in the Big Ten. With a lot of hope and fresh memories of Kenny Guiton’s heroic relief effort when Miller missed almost three full games last season, some fans and even some former players are optimistic Barrett can do that. On the Ohio State radio network’s Buckeye Roundtable on Monday night, exBuckeyes Jim Lachey, Craig Krenzel and Bobby Carpenter all expressed confidence OSU could win all of its games. Guiton’s efforts last year say it can be done. But two earlier examples of Ohio State losing players of similar importance as Miller say it won’t be easy. In 1985, Heisman trophy candidate Keith Byars broke a bone in his foot in practice. He ended up playing in only three games. The year before, he rushed for 1,764 yards. His replacement John Woolridge went for only 820 yards, though OSU was able to match the 9-3 record it had with Byars. In 1987, No. 1 receiver Cris Carter was declared ineligible for signing with an agent. He caught 69 passes in 1986. The top pass catcher in 1987 was Everett Ross with 29 catches and OSU dropped to six wins after winning 10 a year earlier.
