POMEROY — Computers for Students is still going strong, with two major upcoming events in the next two months. The first event will be a collection of any electronics — except televisions — at the Sternwheel Festival on Sept. 11-13. Electronics can be dropped off at the Pomeroy Parking Lot. But if anyone would like to make a donation but cannot drive to the Pomeroy Parking Lot during the upcoming Sternwheel Festival, Iva Sisson, of Computers for Students, will drive to resi- dences to pick up equipment. She said the children of the community will appreciate the donation. To have Sisson pick up a donation, call her at 740-7422187 or 740-508-7353 and leave a voicemail if she is not available. See COMPUTERS | 5 September is Safe Driving Awareness Month in Ohio Staff report TDSnews@civitasmedia.com POMEROY — September has been designated as Safe Driving Awareness Month in Ohio, and the Ohio State Highway Patrol is reminding motorists to do their part in keeping roadways safe by driving defensively, while never driving distracted or impaired. The patrol is also encouraging motorists to always buckle up. There is simply no disputing that wearing a safety belt can save your life. Additionally, motorists should take their time and be knowledgeable of all traffic safety laws. “By devoting their full attention to the road, motorists can reduce their risk of getting into a crash,” said Lt. Max Norris, Gallipolis post commander. “We need all motorists to practice safe driving habits to make the roadways safe all across Ohio.” From 2009-13, an average of 290,556 motor vehicle crashes occurred on Ohio’s public roadways. More than 900 involved fatalities with 1,046 people being killed. Last year was the first in Ohio’s history recording fewer than 1,000 fatalities in a year, with 990 people killed in 918 motor vehicle crashes. September was designated by Senate bill 294, signed by Gov. John Kasich in June 2014, to honor Maria Tiberi and other victims of motor vehicle crashes. Maria Tiberi was a 21-year-old college student who died in a distracted driving crash in September 2013. She was the daughter of Columbus television sports anchor Dom Tiberi. To view the statistical analysis regarding safe driving awareness month, visit www.statepatrol. ohio.gov/doc/SafeDriving_Bulletin_2014.pdf. As always, the patrol asks drivers to call #677 to report impaired drivers or drug activity. — NEWS Obituaries: 2 Opinion: 4 Weather: 5 — SPORTS Cross Country: 6 Volleyball: 8 Golf: 10 — FEATURES Television: 2 Classified: 7 Comics: 9 JOIN THE CONVERSATION What’s your take on today’s news?

The store is also working toward a more varied menu, which will possibly include breakfast foods and sandwiches. “We’re all excited, just very excited,” Grueser said.

Ohio productivity grew by nearly 67 percent between 1979 and 2013, while median hourly wages fell by 1.1 percent when adjusted for inflation. That’s according to a recent analysis of jobs data from Policy Matters Ohio, a Cleveland-based economic think tank. Ohio’s median wage was $15.81 last year, slightly above 2012 but well below the highs of $17.11 and $17.12 in 1999 and 1979. The report says Ohio’s median wage is now nearly 90 cents less per hour than the national median. Economists say that much of the productivity improvement in recent years has been driven by technology, which requires fewer workers, according to the Dayton Daily News. Ohio’s manufacturing sector produced $99.8 billion worth of goods, or 4.8 percent of the nation’s manufacturing output in 2013, ranking it fourth in the U.S. after California, Texas and Illinois, according to the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis. Tom Traynor, a Wright State University economics professor, said Ohio’s manufacturing sector is becoming more “capital intensive,” while using progressively less labor over time. “In a way, manufacturing is going through a long-term process similar to that which farming went through a long time ago,” he said. “Today, if you look at U.S. agriculture, there is more food produced than ever in this country, but we just have so many fewer people producing it.” Four men fatally beaten in four separate homes 32 teens escape from detention center Chatman, 55, and Freelin Hensley, 67, according to Crawford County Coroner Dr. Michael Johnson. On Tuesday, the body of 65-year-old Darrell Lewis was found in his apartment. Johnson said the identity of the fourth victim, found in an apartment in the same complex Tuesday, hasn’t been confirmed. Johnson said the deaths are homicides, but specific causes haven’t been determined. He said a preliminary autopsy report will be available Thursday. “There was trauma to all of them,” Johnson said. He said authorities believe the slayings are related “because of the sequence and time, and appearance of the scene.” He declined to release any more details. Crall and city police officials didn’t immediately return phone messages Wednesday.

The teen showed up about two hours later, and briefly saw his parents and family, she said. “He wanted to see his mom, and nieces and nephews and his sisters, so he came home,” she said. “But when we found out that he ran, I jumped in my truck and put him in there and brought him back.” Once back in custody, the teens who escaped were being taken to juvenile court to face potential escape charges, officials said. Most of the 78 juvenile delinquents held at the center Monday night had committed at least three felonies, Johnson said, but the facility is more like a high school with security than an adult prison. There are no guard towers or barbed wire. The teens stay in single rooms that for their own security are locked on the outside, so that only those with keys can enter. But they can push their room doors open if they need to. They wear blue pants with white or light gray T-shirts, with no markings. LOCAL STOCKS AEP (NYSE) — 53.36 Akzo (NASDAQ) — 23.77 Ashland Inc.

Member SIPC. 60525949 BUCYRUS, Ohio (AP) — Authorities in this small Ohio city are trying to figure out why four men were fatally beaten in four separate homes. A suspect is in custody but hasn’t been charged. Police in Bucyrus, about 65 miles north of Columbus, said the slayings are likely related, but they don’t know if the men knew each other. Two bodies were found Monday, and the two others were discovered Tuesday morning. The suspect came into the police station and led officers to the last two bodies, authorities said. Prosecutor Matthew Crall told reporters Tuesday night that “charges will be filed as soon as possible.” Crawford County Sheriff Scott Kent said Wednesday that the suspect gave some details as to why the killings occurred, but authorities aren’t releasing details. The sheriff’s office is assisting police in the investigation. “One (slaying) can be complicated, four is overwhelming,” Kent said.

Video would improve the odds of truth and justice prevailing in court, comforting those who don’t trust the system. If it showed an unjust execution, society would have more assurance of appropriate charges and a conviction. If it showed an act of self-defense, the officer would have more protection from the prospect of unfair, politically motivated prosecution. A recording could offer a glimpse of truth — the greatest equalizer of all. Cameras in public, a controversial practice, do more good than harm. If they weren’t of value, the NFL wouldn’t review tape to reverse bad decisions on the field. A culture that demands state-of-theart justice in sporting events should tolerate no lesser standard in matters of life, death and liberty. So it’s a welcome development to see the Colorado Springs Police Department outfitting officers with body-worn cameras. It’s part of a five-month pilot program that will hopefully lead to a permanent practice. The benefits seem obvious and are not theoretical. A yearlong study by Taser International and England’s University of Cambridge determined uniform cameras reduce use-of-force incidents by 59 percent. They reduce overall complaints about police by nearly 88 percent. Cameras are neither pro-cop nor anti-cop. They are neither pro-suspect nor anti-suspect. They are neither pro-civil rights nor anti-civil rights. And, no, they are not Big Brother. They are objective, inanimate eyes and ears that protect police, suspects and the community. Police are more likely to obey the letter of the law when their actions are recorded. Moreover, they are more protected against false accusations of excessive force and other abuses of authority. The American Civil Liberties Union champions the cameras but also warns of a downside. “Transparency and accountability are both great reasons for police to use body cameras, but we’ll want to know which guidelines and procedures will be put into action to make sure the technology isn’t misused and people’s rights to privacy are protected,” said Denver ACLU public policy director Denise Maes. Privacy is a reasonable concern but a minor one in terms of interactions with police. Sidewalks, streets and places of public accommodation are open for all the world to see — even from the lens of an officer-worn camera. Police interaction with the public is not a private matter — even on private property. If it were, Americans would have no means of policing the police. Police evidence, regardless of any suspect’s innocence or guilt, belongs to the public. Ultimately, after sensitive investigations run their course, the public has access to all evidence and transcripts of investigations and arrests. Transparency is the greatest asset in defense of civil rights — for police and civilians. As local law enforcement experiments with more cameras, questions will arise. The city will need to determine what discretion officers have in turning cameras on and off, whether they have authority to edit footage, where footage will be stored and for how long. Police officials must also determine which recording equipment suits them best. At the end of the experiment, city officials should devise policies that maximize the amount of on-duty police activity that gets recorded. Doing so might prevent injustice or perceived injustice. It could save lives and prevent more destructive riots that set this country back. Reprinted from the Colorado Springs (Colo.) Gazette.

It is not that Burger King is “shirking” on taxes on its U.S. business through its move. It will have to pay U.S. rates on that regardless. It is avoiding paying the high U.S. taxes on its overseas business, and avoiding what would in effect be a tax increase for Tim Hortons by making it subject to the U.S. system. If this seems unscrupulous, consider the wisdom of the Sage of Omaha, Obama’s go-to economic mascot, whom he has often used to make arguments from authority. “I will not pay a dime more of individual taxes than I owe, and I won’t pay a dime more of corporate taxes than we owe,” Warren Buffett told Fortune magazine this year. So it shouldn’t be a surprise that he evidently has no compunction about helping to finance a deal widely derided for minimizing Burger King’s taxes. Despite all the yowling and patriotic chest-beating, our corporate tax system isn’t the Declaration of Independence, or the Golden Gate Bridge, or the GI Bill. It is an ungainly, politicized disgrace that unduly burdens American business. The best way to keep American companies from wanting to flee it is simply to reform it. It’s either that, or try Warren Buffett for treason. Rich Lowry can be reached via e-mail: comments.lowry@nationalreview.com TODAY IN HISTORY... Today is Thursday, Sept. 4, the 247th day of 2014.

Sisson said that anyone wishing to drop off can find the Computers for Students location in the Pomeroy Parking Lot right across from Court Street, so residents can pull their vehicles right in and won’t have to walk too far to unload. She also stressed that while the health department is having a Meigs Cleanup Day, she hopes residents would save their electronics for the Computers for Students drive happening Sept. 11-13, while still donating non-electronics to Meigs Cleanup Day. “The kids desperately need this,” she said. “Some kids haven’t been placed with a computer yet, and this drive will help us get equipment to give to the kids. Give us your electronics and governor of Somalia’s Lower Shabelle region, Abdiqadir Mohamed Nor. The attack took place 105 miles (170 kilometers) south of Mogadishu in a forested area where al-Shabab trains its fighters, he said. Godane, also known as Mukhtar Abu Zubeyr, is al-Shabab’s spiritual leader under whose direction the Somali militants forged an alliance with al-Qaida. In 2012 the U.S. offered a reward of up to $7 million for information leading to his arrest. If Godane has been killed, the leadership upheaval could bring al-Shabab to break away from al-Qaida and instead pledge allegiance to the Islamic State group in Syria and Iraq, according to two security experts. Godane has no obvious successor and there are reports of a rift within al-Shabab over which global terror group to align with, said Matt Bryden, the head of Sahan Research in Nairobi. A struggle for power seems likely, he said. “Advanced splintering seems like a probable outcome,” terrorism analyst J.M. Berger said. “If Shabab ends up exiting al-Qaida, there will be global implications for that ... but it’s hard to say right everything else to the health department.” The second event is in connection with the Connect Appalachia Broadband Initiative (CABI) Fund, which was established at the Foundation for Appalachian Ohio and seeks to address the digital divide facing rural Appalachian Ohio, according to a press release. The fund is supported by Connect Ohio with the generous support of individuals, foundations and corporations — now which way that will go.” Godane, 37, was publicly named as leader of al-Shabab in December 2007 and has since exercised command responsibility for the group’s operations across Somalia, according to the National Counterterrorism Center. Last year he was said to be in a feud with foreign militants, including an American jihadi from Alabama, Omar Hammami, who accused alShabab leaders of enjoying extravagant lifestyles with taxes collected from Somali residents. Hammami was killed last September following months on the run after falling out with Godane. After Monday’s airstrikes, masked Islamic militants in the area arrested dozens of residents they suspected of spying for the U.S. and searched nearby homes, a resident said. “Everyone is being detained,” said Mohamed Ali, who lives in Sablale district. “They even searched nearby jungles and stopped the nomads transporting milk and grass to the towns for questioning.” The U.S. has carried out several airstrikes in Somalia in recent years. A missile strike in January killed a high-ranking intelligence including Intel Americas and Chesapeake Energy. In the fall, when the Hocking Hills are at its finest, the group picks a Saturday when Ohio State is not playing football to host a fundraising concert at the historic Stuarts Opera House in Nelsonville that features entertainment with ties to Appalachian Ohio. Sisson said last year was a tremendous success and the near sellout officer for al-Shabab, and last October a vehicle carrying senior members of the group was hit in a U.S. attack that killed al-Shabab’s top explosives expert. The latest U.S. action comes after Somalia’s government forces regained control of a high-security prison in the capital. Seven heavily armed suspected al-Shabab members attempted on Sunday to free other extremists held there. Al Shabab is now mostly active in Somalia’s rural regions after being ousted from the capital by African Union forces in 2011. Somali military officials last week launched a military operation to oust al-Shabab from its last remaining bases in the southern parts of Somalia. On Saturday the militants withdrew from the town of Bulomarer, located about 110 kilometers (70 miles) south of Mogadishu, after hours of fighting. Al-Shabab attacked the mall in Nairobi last year to punish Kenya for sending troops into Somalia against the extremists. Godane said at the time that the mall attack was carried out in retaliation for the West’s support for Kenya’s Somalia intervention and the “interest of their oil companies.” crowd had a terrific time, so the group has the same lineup this year.

Then there were those games against the nation’s top two teams — and most recent national champions — that weren’t as lopsided as predicted. “I don’t think anyone really that’s involved in the Big 12 finds that as a big surprise,” said Kansas coach Charlie Weis, who got to watch a lot of games since his was the only Big 12 team that didn’t play. “Maybe people in others parts of the country think it’s a big surprise, but we all know that this is a loaded league.” West Virginia, picked by Big 12 coaches to finish eighth in the league, was a fourtouchdown underdog against No. 2 Alabama. But the Mountaineers had chances into the fourth quarter before losing 33-23 to the Crimson Tide, which won three of four national championships before Florida State’s title last season. The Seminoles opened their title defense as 19-point favorites over Oklahoma State and jumped out to a 17-0 lead. But Jameis Winston and Co. had to hold on for a 37-31 victory against a Cowboys offense desperately short on experienced players. Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy said Monday on the weekly Big 12 coaches teleconference that his players “should be able to establish a certain level of confidence from the way they played.” Meanwhile, the league’s Top 25 teams — No. 4 Oklahoma, No. 10 Baylor and No. 20 Kansas State — won their openers by an average margin of 39 points. In the new College Football Playoff, games against other powerfive conferences (ACC, Big Ten, Pac-12, SEC) could have a big impact on the perception of the Big 12 and whether the league gets one of those four playoff spots.

Victoria Walker (59) and Sarah Curl (65) also played for Meigs but did not contribute to the team total. Eastern, which was unable to post a team score, was led by match medalist Grace Edwards with a nine-over par 43. Katelyn Edwards posted a 57 and Kaitlyn Hawk added a 65 for the Lady Eagles. Ashley Acree posted a 56 for Southern. The Lady Spartans were led by MJ Daugherty with a 52 and Ally McClain with a 53. Rounding out the AHS scoring were Kylee Sams with a 57 and Taylor Boggs with a 58, while Alexus Losesy added a 72 in a non-counting effort. Buckeyes game relies on Elliott, Smith, Samuel COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Without brawny Carlos Hyde and his 1,521 yards rushing, many Ohio State fans expected the worst out of the tailback position this season. So far, it’s been a bright spot. “Last year, we had a guy who was a 20- or 25-carry guy,” Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer said. “We have some pretty capable players. We also don’t have that body type to go just slam it in there so many times. We’re going to wait and see.” Rather than one power back to shoulder the load, Meyer has at least three players he can count on at tailback, not to mention speedsters such as Dontre Wilson and Jalin Marshall at the H-back spot. Linebacker Chase Williams, who will lead Virginia Tech up against the Buckeyes on Saturday night, doesn’t believe No. 8 Ohio State has lost much without the graduated Hyde and with the season-ending injury to QB Braxton Miller. “It seems like a similar offense. They’re fast. They’re athletic,” he said. “They’ve always got somebody they can plug in who can go out and make plays.” The Ohio State coaching staff was pleased with the job done by all of the backs in Saturday’s 34-17 win over Navy, starting with Ezekiel Elliott, who gained 44 yards on 12 carries including a 10-yard touchdown run. Elliott, a sophomore out of St. Louis, is the team’s leading returning rusher after gaining 262 yards in 11 games last year. He’s roughly 10 pounds lighter than the 235-pound Hyde and less of an inside-thetackle runner. But he’s still trying to copy aspects of what Hyde gave the Buckeyes. “(I’m following) just a little bit of his style,” Elliott said during fall camp. “Just how much of a bruiser he was and how good he was on contact. That’s something I want to add to my game.” But it’s not as if Elliott has a lock on the position. He’ll get his carries, but unless he just goes off statistically, he’ll likely share the spot. Rod Smith — a fifthyear senior who at one point was barely on the roster — is now in the thick of things at the position. Meyer has long said before players get critical time at the skill positions, they first must lay it on the line on special teams. Based on that, Smith has made a dramatic climb up the depth chart. “Rod Smith had the play of the day,” Meyer said of the Navy game, bypassing linebacker Darron Lee’s 61-yard fumble return or Devin Smith’s 80-yard TD catch from J.T. Barrett. “He held a block on a punt return for 11 seconds. And the way we do our business here, that entitled him to some carries.” Meyer, in his 13th year as a head coach and 29th coaching at the college level, called it “one of the greatest plays I’ve ever seen.” Rounding out the top three candidates at tailback is flashy freshman Curtis Samuel, who had a fine college debut. He collected 45 yards on just seven carries, coming in against a tired defense with a distinct advantage in quickness and speed. Samuel, out of Brooklyn, New York, believes he can provide a jolt to the running attack. “Just being able to take a little tight zone play and turn it into an explosive play of more than 12 yards,” he said. Despite what the fans might think, the top three tailbacks are confident. They don’t believe there’s been any falloff at the position. “I have to say the expectations are high,” Samuel said. “We have a goal that we want to reach. We’re chasing it.” WVU’s run game absent in opener CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — West Virginia might get an opportunity to unleash its running game in the second week of the season against Towson. It happened only sparingly in the opener. West Virginia’s depth at running back was considered the strength of the offense entering the 2014 season. But four backs managed just 58 yards on 19 carries in a 33-23 loss to Alabama. With the secondranked Crimson Tide clogging holes in the offensive line, West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen turned to his backs for pass protection and to catch screen passes. If Pittsburgh transfer Rushel Shell has his way, that could change when West Virginia (0-1) and Towson (0-1) meet on MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Timberwolves haven’t made the playoffs in 10 years and just traded the face of their franchise so he can go chase a championship with LeBron James in Cleveland. Kevin Love is gone now, and yet somehow the Timberwolves have parlayed that into a record-setting week at the box office. After completing the longrumored trade that sent Love to the Cavaliers and brought Andrew Wiggins, Anthony Bennett and Thaddeus Young to Minnesota, the Timberwolves have sold more than 300 full season-ticket packages in the last week. That beats the previous record in 2011 that was set when Ricky Rubio announced that he was coming over 60526109 60423165 From Page 6 740-949-2210 Saturday night in Morgantown. West Virginia used a rotation of Shell, Wendell Smallwood, Dreamius Smith and Dustin Garrison against Alabama. Shell wouldn’t mind letting the home crowd see what their legs can do if the opportunity presents itself against Towson, which allowed 192 rushing yards in a 31-27 loss to Central Connecticut State last week. “Every one of our backs in our backfield are great backs, and I feel any one of us could have a 100-yard, 200yard game,” Shell said. “Playing at home, this is a crazy place, crazy fans, it’s definitely a game I’m looking forward to, especially at night time.” With Trickett throwing for a career-high 365 yards against Alabama, the running backs turned into receivers, too. Smallwood caught six passes for 73 yards and Shell had a pair of catches for 19 yards. “Those guys might be in (pass) protection, but they may be in route running as well,” Holgorsen said. “That’s why Wendell’s role is so big. He can get involved in the passing game with whatever we want him to do. Rushel is not there yet, but that’s why he’s playing as much as he is because he is able to run with authority, as we know he can. He’s able to pass protect because he’s physical. “The surprising thing is that he can get out into the flats, catch a ball, make a guy miss, run a guy over and give you an explosive play. I think we’re all excited about seeing that.” Shell ran for 641 yards as a freshman at Pitt in 2012 before transferring to West Virginia. His first game for the Mountaineers was a reality check. After compiling 20 yards on his first three carries on the opening drive: he had 18 yards the rest of the game. “I felt I came out hot,” Shell said. “Then it disappeared.” What didn’t go away was West Virginia’s energy throughout the game, which Holgorsen called an “all-time high.” He would like to see that same level again this week against a Championship Subdivision opponent. “If we can get those guys to play with that kind of effort, with that kind of energy and with that kind of excitement, we’re going to have a good year,” he said. Timberwolves have record week Crown We’ve Got Money to Lend! said. “We’ve got Tuesday and Wednesday practice. I’ll know more by Thursday. … This is a much different opponent than we had last week.” As of right now, the only team on the Buckeyes’ remaining schedule that is currently ranked in the Top 25 is Michigan State on Nov. 8. Hoke recalled how legendary Wolverines coach Bo Schembechler always referred to the game against the Irish as “a measuring point” for the rest of the season. “We can’t worry about anybody else,” Hoke said. “We’ve got to worry about what we’re doing and people are going to write what they think period about the Big Ten. From that standpoint we hope the conference does well, but we’ve got a lot on our plate going into South Bend.” But the biggest game this weekend, no doubt, will be in Oregon. The Ducks’ high-flying offense against the Spartans’ physical defense. And no matter how much Dantonio wants to downplay it, a win for Michigan State would be a win for the Big Ten. “We’re in a great conference,” Dantonio said. “This is about Michigan State and Oregon and how we match up. But there’s no question we go there representing the Big Ten just like we do in every game and everything we do. I’m comfortable with that, but I think it’s more about how we play, how our players play against their players and how we match up individually in our little battles.” (29:02.9) and Hannah Nutter (31:03.5) respectively finished from Spain to play for the team. “The organization, from presidentlevel on down has just been re-energized,” Timberwolves senior vice president and chief revenue officer Ryan Tanke said. “Part of it is hope, and you have this great new hope. “But then there’s also the reality, which is it was a long, tough summer. For it to come to the head that it came to and have it be the outcome that we had, I think it creates this perfect storm environment for us.” The front office and players weren’t the only ones stuck in limbo this summer because of an NBA rule that prevented the blockbuster trade from being consummated until 30 days after Wiggins signed his contract. The Timberwolves’ sales staff had 42nd and 53rd. Ramsey Warren placed 54th with a mark of 31:03.5, while Natosha Rankin was 65th overall with a time of 33:46.2. Southern had only two to sit on its collective hands and wait for the official announcement to come before reaching out to fans to beef up a season-ticket base that dropped from 7,400 for the 201314 season to fewer than 6,000 this summer. Sales representatives were barred from discussing the trade with inquiring fans and the team certainly could not advertise the wholesale changes that were coming. “I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t a really challenging summer for our sales staff,” Tanke said. “When you don’t have the story to tell, you have to go to painstaking lengths to make sure they don’t tell a story and stay off of rumors. We’re unable to talk about that stuff so your challenge is compounded when you can’t even talk about it.” competitors in the girls race, which was three short of enough for a team score.
