POMEROY — An affordable housing complex constructed in 1979 received a major renovation recently and held a ribbon-cutting event with development partners and residents to celebrate the grand reopening. Pomeroy Cliffs is the $4.8 million rehabilitation of 30 units in four buildings located in Pomeroy. The renovated townhomes and one-story attached row houses feature one-, two-, three- and fourbedroom units, and will accompany the renovated building housing the management office, maintenance utility rooms, a common laundry facility and community room. Units include new energy efficient appliances, window blinds, carpet, central air conditioning, ceiling fans and patios in the townhouse units. The development also contains a bus shelter for school children and a walking path with exercise stations. Gallia Meigs CAA will provide service coordination to the residents. The Pomeroy property consists of four residential buildings and the management office. All units have a HUD Section 8 subsidy. Energy efficiency and handicapped accessibility will be part of the rehabilitation, including Energy Star appliances, low flow fixtures, added insulation and accessible turn areas, widened doorways and no step access. The property is currently owned by a limited partnership, Pomeroy Cliffs Ltd. represented by a local attorney. None of the current investors will be part of the new ownership entity. The property has been managed by Gorsuch See CLIFFS | 5 A park for everyone Program promotes blood donations By April Jaynes ajaynes@civitasmedia.com OHIO VALLEY — With numerous local blood drives coming up, one American Red Cross program gives high school students the chance to win a college scholarship in an effort to foster lifelong blood donors. Students who sponsor a successful blood drive between Dec. 15 and Jan. 15, 2015, through the Leaders Save Lives program will be entered for a chance to win a college scholarship and receive a gift card, according to a recent news release from the American Red Cross. Marianne Spampinato, external communications manager for the Red Cross, said high school and college students account for about 20 percent of all blood donations to the Red Cross. “Many blood donors report making their first blood donation while in high school,” she said. “Individuals can begin donating at 17 years old, or 16 in some states, and continue to donate as long as they meet eligibility requirements.” Individuals who are 17 years of age, or 16 with parental consent in Ohio and West Virginia, weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. “Blood donations often decline during the winter holidays when school is not in session,” Spampinato said. ” (So) the Red Cross is offering 16- to 24-year-old students currently enrolled in school a way to help overcome this seasonal decline and have a chance to win a college scholarship.” To apply for the Leaders Save Lives Program, students can apply online at www.redcrossblood. org/leaderssavelives and students will be contacted by a local American Red Cross representative to discuss their potential as a Leaders Save Lives blood drive coordinator, according to the website. Red Cross representatives remind individuals that donors are needed year-round, particularly those with types O negative, A negative and B negative blood. To make an appointment to donate blood, eligible donors are encouraged to download the new See DONATIONS | 5 — NEWS Obituaries: 2 Opinion: 4 Weather: 5 ABOVE LEFT, Jim Smith, of Middleport, came up with the idea of a wheelchair turnaround for disabled attendees who visit Mulberry Pond.

COLUMBUS — Emergency rooms are starting to see patients that doctors are calling “the worried well” showing up with flu-like symptoms that have them concerned about Ebola, state health officials said Tuesday. Fever and diarrhea are common complaints with any type of viral illness and especially now that flu season is approaching, said Dr. Carol Cunningham, state medical director for the Ohio Department of Public Safety. The key is to remember that contracting the Ebola virus would involve a history of travel to three countries in West Africa only, she said. “Without that history, it’s more likely to be a viral illness,” she said, reminding people that it’s important to get a flu shot. Any report of Ebola would launch a ripple effect of health officials immediately identifying anyone who had contact with a patient, added Sheila Hiddleson, with the Association of Ohio Health Commissioners. “We will call you,” she said. “If we think that you’ve been exposed, even if it’s a remote exposure, we’re going to be contacting you, See CONCERNS | 5 �LOCAL 2 Wednesday, October 15, 2014 OBITUARY Daily Sentinel DEATH NOTICES MARY KATHRYN KIMES GRUESER BUMGARDNER MASON, W.Va. — Teresa Earlene Bumgardner, 75, of Mason, passed away Monday, Oct. 13, 2014, at Cabell Huntington Hospital in Huntington, W.Va.

The report, which appears in the November issue of the journal Seismological Research Letters, identified nearly 400 tremors on a previously unmapped fault in Harrison County between Oct. 1 and Dec. 13, 2013. That included 10 quakes of magnitudes of 1.7 to 2.2. That’s intense enough to have temporarily halted activity under Ohio’s new drilling permit rules had they been in place at the time, but is still considered minor. The quakes fell along a fault lying directly under three hydraulic fracturing operations and tended to coincide with nearby activity, researchers found. About 190 quakes were detected in a single three-day period last October, beginning within hours of the start of fracking. None of the quakes was reported felt by people. Ohio Department of Natural Resources spokeswoman Bethany McCorkle said the state has installed seismic monitoring equipment throughout eastern Ohio over the past year and is keeping close watch for earthquakes strong enough to be felt. Fracking involves the highpressure injection of water, sand and chemicals into shale to break up the rock and NEWS AROUND OHIO Associated Press Ohio groom, friend killed in crash on wedding day UPPER SANDUSKY — An Ohio man was killed on his wedding day when a pickup truck carrying him, his new wife and friends crashed. Friends and family were mourning the deaths Andrew Bloomfield, 27, of Galion, and his 26-year-old friend Elizabeth Shelton, who were killed Sunday in northern Ohio’s Wyandot County when the truck’s driver lost control, a report said. Bloomfield had married 37-year-old Ruth Driskill hours before the crash, which happened just before 4 p.m., the Bucyrus Telegraph-Forum reported Tuesday. Driskell was in critical condition, as was the driver, Timothy Tebbe. The truck drove off the left side of the road and struck an embankment and a utility pole before rolling several times and coming to rest in a cornfield, the patrol said. Driskell and Tebbe had to be extricated from the wreckage, a Wyandot County Sheriff’s Office report said. Shelton was dead at the scene, and Andrew Bloomfield died later at a hospital. The crash is under investigation. Man pleads guilty in death of child rape suspect URBANA — A man has pleaded guilty in the death of a central Ohio child rape suspect who died after a jail assault. A report by the Champaign County Sheriff’s Office says inmate David Piersol was the victim of an assault on April 5 at Tri-County Regional Jail in Mechanicsburg and died a few days later. Champaign County prosecutor Kevin Talebi says defendant Zachary Butler, of Richwood, pleaded guilty Tuesday to one count of reckless homicide and one count of tampering with evidence. Talebi says the tampering charge involves an accusation that the 24-yearold Butler traded blood-stained pants with another inmate. While Butler’s family has said other inmates forced him to attack Piersol, Talebi says no other charges are expected. A message was left with Piersol’s attorney. Feds say pilot error led to Ohio air show crash DAYTON — Federal safely investigators have determined that pilot error was the probable cause of a fiery crash at a 2013 Ohio air show that killed a wing walker and pilot in front of thousands of horrified spectators. The Boeing Stearman biplane crash killed 45-year-old wing walker Jane Wicker and 64-year-old pilot Charlie Schwenker, both Virginia-based performers, at the Vectren Dayton Air Show on June 22, 2013. The Dayton Daily News reports that the National Transportation Safety Board concluded the pilot attempted to fly “a modified airshow maneuver, which placed the airplane at low altitude and airspeed and out of position within the performance area.” The findings follow an initial Ohio State Highway Patrol investigation in July 2013 that also attributed the cause of the crash to pilot error. release trapped oil and gas. Rowena Lohman, an assistant professor of geophysics at Cornell University who was not involved in the study, said some faults cannot be discovered until underground activity is attempted. She said the latest findings can be used to try to prevent worse quakes. “We’ve known for a really long time, going back to the ’70s, that when you do any subsurface manipulation you cause small earthquakes,” she said. “The big question is: Are we doing something now that increases the probability that it will induce larger quakes?” Study co-author Paul Friberg, a seismologist at New York-based Instrumental Software Technologies Inc., said that fracturing rock results in micro-earthquakes but that some of the Harrison County tremors were significantly larger than expected. Ohio determined a probable link between fracking and five small tremors in eastern Ohio in April, in the first such tie announced in the northeastern U.S. Ohio judge convicted, but jury hangs on eight counts By Dan Sewell had told them to keep trying, but they returned later Tuesday to say they couldn’t reach unanimous verdicts on CINCINNATI — A suspended juve- the other counts. nile court judge was convicted TuesHunter was convicted of using her day of a single felony count, but the authority as a judge to get documents jury hung on the other eight counts related to her brother’s employment against her. that she wasn’t supposed to have.

The group calling itself the Camera Removal Team plans the demonstration Tuesday afternoon at an intersection on the city’s east side, according to the Northeast Ohio Media Group. The group says it will be joined by members of Black on Black Crime Inc. and Liberate Ohio, a non-partisan political action committee that promotes the local ballot issue process. Group representatives say the redlight camera program deprives those who receive citations of their due process rights. The city council voted last month to approve the issue for the ballot after more than 13,000 people signed petitions. Ohio man in explosives case committed to hospital COLUMBUS — A central Ohio man who was found mentally incompetent to stand trial for having explosive devices in his home has been committed to a state psychiatric hospital. Fifty-six-year-old Mark Kulis was committed to the facility after a judge in Columbus ruled that a six-month psychiatric treatment program had failed to restore him to a point where he could understand the charges against him and assist his lawyer. He will now be held indefinitely. Officers who went to the house in January found six improvised explosive devices, bomb-making materials, several firearms and ammunition. The house was in foreclosure. Authorities say rambling writings in the home indicated Kulis believed he was sovereign citizen not bound by most laws. Deputies say he was carrying a loaded revolver when arrested.

If the stakes weren’t so high, it would be gratifying to see the same politicians who created such unpalatable choices forced into much the same corner. But forcing President Barack Obama and Congress to choose between Syria’s Bashar al-Assad, and the Islamic State, is far too serious a matter to be taken lightly. As President Obama told CBS News’ “60 Minutes,” it’s a “contradiction in a contradictory land and contradictory circumstances.” Indeed, attacking the Islamic State and extending those attacks into Syria could help Assad, who is a product of the more secular Arab nationalist movement, as was Saddam Hussein. Its influence in the Middle East has gradually given way to Islamic fundamentalism. Obama chose not to help arm and train more moderate factions fighting in the Syrian civil war, and now they have been overwhelmed by the fanatics. He has reversed his position, but it will take a long time to turn the rebels into an effective fighting force. Obama’s reluctance to extend aid to Middle Eastern rebels is understandable. Groups that are friendly when they need help can turn those same weapons on the very people who provided them. Gratitude has proved short-lived in that part of the world. Again foreign policy often boils down to a choice between the lesser of two evils. It is good to see that Obama is coming to grips with that reality. His predecessor, George W. Bush, was stubbornly wedded to the idea that Iraq could be pacified without an adequate number of troops. He was forced to reverse his position, and eventually the 2007 troop surge did the job, at least temporarily. Obama has yielded several times to pragmatism. He may be forced to yield once more and send more ground troops. Meanwhile, Congress should recall that it has a role when the nation moves toward war. It should not abrogate all of its war powers to the executive branch, no matter how convenient that might be. The president has only limited war-making powers. It is up to Congress to provide him with the authority he needs specific to the action he seeks to take. Congress has authorized action against Saddam Hussein’s Iraq and al-Qaida. The Islamic State fits neither description, and while Syria and Iraq may look alike, it does matter on which particular patch of desert the bombs fall. The president has said Congress can come along for the ride if it likes. Congress should take an active role, debating the president’s proposal and determining the limitations on how he will proceed. It might be an unpleasant choice, but it’s better than watching congressional power wane through inaction. Reprinted from the Jacksonville (N.C.)

Wittner American politicians are fond of telling their audiences that the United States is the greatest country in the world. Is there any evidence for this claim? Well, yes. When it comes to violence and preparations for violence, the United States is, indeed, No. 1. In 2013, according to a report by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, the U.S. government accounted for 37 percent of world military expenditures, putting it far ahead of all other nations. The two closest competitors, China and Russia, accounted for 11 percent and 5 percent, respectively. From 2004 to 2013, the United States was also the No. 1 weapons exporter in the world. Moreover, given the U.S. government’s almost continuous series of wars and acts of military intervention since 1941, it seems likely that it surpasses all rivals when it comes to international violence. This record is paralleled on the domestic front, where the United States has more guns and gunrelated deaths than any other country. A study released in late 2013 reported that the United States had 88 guns for every 100 people, and 40 gun-related deaths for every 400,000 people — the most of any of the 27 economically developed countries surveyed. By contrast, in Britain there were 6 guns per 100 people and 1 gun-related death per 400,000 people. Yet, in a great many other areas, the United States is not No. 1 at all. Take education. In late 2013, the Program for International Student Assessment released a report on how 15-year-old students from 65 nations performed on its tests. The report showed that U.S. students ranked 17th in reading and 21st in math. An international survey a bit earlier that year by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development found that the ranking was slightly worse for American adults. American health care and health fare even worse. In a 2014 study of healthcare (including infant mortality, healthy life expectancy, and mortality from preventable conditions) in 11 advanced industrial countries, the Commonwealth Fund concluded that the United States ranked last among them. Other studies reach somewhat different conclusions, but all are very unflattering to the United States. What about the environment? Specialists at Yale University have developed a highly sophisticated Environmental Performance Index to examine the behavior of nations. In the area of protection of human health from environmental harm, their 2014 index placed the United States 35th in health impacts, 36th in water and sanitation, and 38th in air quality. These and other areas of interest are dealt with by the Social Progress Index, which was developed by Michael Porter, an eminent professor of business (and a Republican) at Harvard. According to Porter and his team, in 2014 the United States ranked 23rd in access to information and communications, 24th in nutrition and basic medical care, 31st in personal safety, 34th in water and sanitation, 39th in access to basic knowledge, 69th in ecosystem sustainability, and 70th in health and wellness. The widespread extent of poverty, especially among children, remains a disgrace in one of the world’s wealthiest nations. A 2013 report by the United Nations Children’s Fund noted that, of the 35 economically advanced countries that had been studied, only Romania had a higher percentage of children living in poverty than did the United States. Of course, the United States is not locked into these dismal rankings and the sad situation they reveal about the health, education, and welfare of its citizens. It could do much better if its vast wealth, resources, and technology were employed differently than they are at present. Ultimately, it’s a matter of priorities. When most U.S. government discretionary spending goes for war and preparations for war, it should come as no surprise that the United States emerges No. 1 among nations in its capacity for violence and falls far behind other nations in providing for the wellbeing of its people. Americans might want to keep this in mind as their nation embarks upon yet another costly military crusade.

There are 77 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 15, 1914, the Clayton Antitrust Act, which expanded on the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890, was signed into law by President Woodrow Wilson. On this date: In 1860, 11-year-old Grace Bedell of Westfield, N.Y., wrote a letter to presidential candidate Abraham Lincoln, suggesting he could improve his appearance by growing a beard.

In 1928, the German dirigible Graf Zeppelin landed in Lakehurst, N.J., completing its first commercial flight across the Atlantic. In 1939, New York City Municipal Airport was dedicated by Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia, for whom the facility was later renamed. In 1946, Nazi war criminal Hermann Goering fatally poisoned himself hours before he was to have been executed. In 1954, Hurricane Hazel made landfall on the Carolina coast as a Category 4 storm; Hazel was blamed for some 1,000 deaths in the Caribbean, 95 in the U.S. and 81 in Canada.

Nurse Nina Pham was among about 70 staff members at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital who cared for Thomas Eric Duncan, according to medical records. The 26-year-old nurse was in the Liberian man’s room often, from the day he was placed in intensive care until the day before he died last week. “I’m doing well and want to thank everyone for their kind wishes and prayers,” Pham said in a statement issued by the hospital, which said doctors were hopeful that she would recover. She and other health care workers wore protective gear, including gowns, gloves, masks and face shields — and sometimes full-body suits — when caring for Duncan, but she became the first person to contract the disease within the United States. Duncan died Wednesday. Pham understood the risks and tried to reassure her family that she would be safe, according to a family friend. When Pham’s mother learned her daughter was caring for Duncan, Pham told her: “Don’t worry about me,” Christina Tran told The Associated Press on Monday. Pham went to the hospital Friday night after finding she had a fever. The health organization’s assistant director-general, Dr. Bruce Aylward, gave the infection projection during a news conference in Geneva and confirmed the death rate in the current outbreak has risen to 70 percent. Previously, the WHO had estimated the Ebola mortality rate at around 50 percent. If the world’s response to the crisis isn’t stepped up within 60 days, “a lot more people will die,” Aylward said. Meanwhile in Berlin, a U.N. medical worker infected with Ebola in Liberia died. The 56-year-old man, whose name has not been released, died overnight of the infection, the St. Georg hospital in Leipzig announced Tuesday. Leipzig authorities said the man, who was from Sudan, would be cremated.

Concerns From Page 1 so hopefully that will help with the worried well not showing up at the hospital doors.” In Dallas, a nurse became infected with Ebola while treating the first patient diagnosed in the U.S. Also on Tuesday, the World Health Organization projected that West Africa could see up to 10,000 new Ebola cases a week within two months and confirmed the death rate in the current outbreak has risen to 70 percent. Ohio hospitals have access to equipment such as protective suits they would need in the unlikely event of an outbreak, said Michael Abrams, president and CEO of the Ohio Hospital Association. A measles outbreak in Ohio’s Amish community earlier this year was attributed to an unvaccinated Amish man contracting the disease on a trip to the Philippines. But the state has no plans to warn against travel because of Ebola. “There’s a really wonderful impulse to help and we don’t want to discourage people from going over to do that,” said Heath Department director Richard Hodges. “We’re just trying to equip them with the information so that they know how to protect themselves and also know what to look for when they return mostly to reassure themselves that they don’t have Ebola.” The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say travelers should avoid nonessential travel to Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone in West Africa and practice enhanced caution if traveling to the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The CDC has authorized the Ohio Health Department to conduct initial Ebola testing, with confirmation testing done by the federal agency. Ebola is spread through direct contact with the blood or body fluids of someone with the virus, or through items contaminated with the person’s blood or body fluids. Ebola is not spread through the air, food or water. LOCAL STOCKS AEP (NYSE) — 54.72 Akzo (NASDAQ) — 20.65 Ashland Inc.

SGHS never trailed in the second game and the Lady Rebels charged to a 25-10 victory and a 2-0 lead in the match. Miller scored just one service point in the second game. MHS led early in the third game, but South Gallia rallied back and the Lady Rebels claimed a 25-13 victory and the match by a 3-0 count. Hineman led the Lady Rebels with 12 service points, followed by Courtney Haner with nine. Sara Bailey and Jayla Wolford each marked eight points; Kirstin Burnette added four, while Tiffany Beaver and Katie Bostic each had three points.

Gallia Academy slays Dragons, 6-1 By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com CENTENARY, Ohio — No more of that seven-year itch. The Gallia Academy soccer team won its first postseason match since the 2007 campaign Monday night following a 6-1 victory over visiting Fairland in a Division II sectional quartefinal contest at Lester Field in Gallia County. The eighth-seeded Blue Devils (5-11-2) dominated from the opening minute as the hosts fired the first 17 shots of the game en rout to a sizable 48-6 advantage in total shots, which included a whopping 29-2 edge in shots on goal. GAHS got a hat trick from Logan Carpenter in first half, as the junior scored goals in the 11th, 30th and 36th minutes to give the Blue and White an early 3-0 advantage. Isaiah Lester also scored a goal in the 38th minute to give Gallia Academy a 4-0 edge at the intermission. Lester added his second goal of the night in the 55th minute for a 5-0 lead, then Jacob McCormick tacked on the Blue Devils’ final score of the game in the 58th minute for a 6-nil cushion. Robert Thompson scored the Dragons’ lone goal in the 77th minute on a penalty kick, wrapping up the five-goal outcome. Ninthseeded Fairland (3-7-4) managed its first shot of the game at the 17:47 mark of the first half, or after roughly 22 minutes of play. Lester added two assists for the hosts, while Cole Tawney and Hunter Bennett also had an assist apiece in the victory.

The RedStorm garnered 539 points in the balloting of a panel of head coaches representing each of the conferences, independents and unaffiliated groups to move up one spot into the No. 3 ranking in the poll released Tuesday. Head coach Scott Morrissey’s club posted shutout wins over Shawnee State University and Asbury University last week. Rio Grande (9-2-1), which makes its 81st straight appearance in the poll, returns to action on Wednesday night when it hosts 20th-ranked Union (Ky.) College. Davenport (Mich.) claims the No. 1 ranking for the first time in school history. The Panthers, who posted 20 first-place votes and 591 total points, hold an 11-1-0 overall record and are the fourth different team this year to be No. 1. Davenport replaced previous No. 1 Thomas (Ga.) after the Night Hawks tripped up on Oct. 10. Like Rio Grande, No. 2 MidAmerica Nazarene (Kan.) moved up one position in the poll with 562 points. The Pioneers have either improved or held steady each week in the Top 25 as they have now been ranked in 30 consecutive polls. No. 4 Thomas fell from the top spot after suffering its first loss against Florida Memorial, 3-2. The Night Hawks tallied 522 total points. Holding steady at No. 5, Auburn Montgomery (Ala.) lands 518 points. The Warhawks tangle with No. 23 William Carey (Miss.) on Thursday. Two ranked teams who faced off last week - No. 18 Reinhardt (Ga.) and No. 20 Union - both saw significant movement within the poll. Reinhardt claimed the biggest improvement, mov- ing up six spots after the 4-2 win over the Bulldogs on Oct. 8. Conversely, Union slipped down six positions after falling for the first time on the year and seeing an 11-match win streak snapped. No. 25 Hope International (Calif.), is ranked for the first time with 132 points, since poll records date back to the 2000 season. After a loss to NCCAA member Bethesda (Calif.) on Sept. 9, the Royals have reeled off eight wins and a tie (8-01). They hold a 1.5-game lead in the Golden State Athletic Conference (GSAC) standings with a 10-2-1 overall record and 6-0-0 mark in the GSAC. After its first ranking in over two years last week, Great Falls (Mont.) (No. 23) drops out. The Argos lost a 1-0 overtime decision to Jamestown (N.D.) in the NAIA Game of the Week last Saturday. Seventeen of the 21 conferences/independents/unaffiliated groups were represented this week. The Southern States Athletic Conference claims the most teams in the Top 25 among all conferences/independents/unaffiliated groupings with three: Auburn Montgomery, No. 15 Mobile (Ala.) and William Carey. Five other conferences and the Unaffiliated Group (Gulf Coast / Kentucky Intercollegiate) all claim two ranked teams. Raiders get through bad week, go on to win game By Rusty Miller Associated Press Canfield South Range got through a lot, then had to play a game. After being rocked earlier in the week by the forfeit of last week’s win over East Palestine due to the use of an ineligible player and the related suspensions of head coach Dan Yeagley and offensive coordinator Wayne Allegretto (also the athletic director), the Raiders took a 17-0 lead in the first quarter and Joe Alessi ran for 306 yards and four touchdowns on 19 carries to hand Hanoverton United its second loss of the season, 52-28. “We’ve all played together for so long, we just wanted to win for each other,” QB Ryan Miller said. “We really came together and had one of our best practices of the year. We came out tonight and played South Range football. It was a great program win.” Assistant Nick Haught served as the interim head coach. The two coaches were subsequently reinstated for using the ineligible player. “It was unbelievable how the kids responded,” said Haught, whose only head-coaching experience was at the junior-high level. “We were destroyed on Wednesday, but Ryan took it to his heart to look everybody in the eye Thursday and get them fired up.” TURNING IT AROUND: A year removed from an 0-10 season, Sandusky Perkins clinched its first winning season since 1990 and moved closer to its firstever playoff appearance. GROUND-POUNDERS: Wellsville’s Zack Mellott ran for 321 yards and three TDs on 35 carries in a 42-14 win over Lowellville; Nick Coleman, a Notre Dame commitment, rushed for 289 yards and scored five TDs in the first half of Kettering Alter’s 56-20 win over Hamilton Badin; Oxford Talawanda’s Maurice Thomas, a Miami University commit, had 280 yards and four touchdowns (including one on a 97-yard run) on 13 carries in a 46-13 win over Morrow Little Miami; Derek Walker rushed for 270 yards and six TDs and passed for another score in Archbold’s first win of the season, a 63-33 victory over Metamora Evergreen; Trevor Anderson ran for 257 yards and scored four TDs including the game-winner with 30 seconds remaining as West Liberty-Salem stunned Mechanicsburg 42-38, which boasted Kaleb Romero rushing for 264 yards on 14 carries; Findlay LibertyBenton’s Austin Combs carried 20 times for 270 yards and three TDs in a 42-7 win over Mount Blanchard Riverdale; and Spencerville had 481 yards rushing in a 60-20 win over Bluffton, including 231 yards and three TDs from Zach Goercke. GOING UP TOP: Division IV No. 1 Clarksville Clinton-Massie has a run-pass play ratio of 238-34 this season. But it was a 6-yard TD pass from Hunter Fentress to Bryce Boyd with 7 seconds left that lifted the Falcons to a 22-19 win over Chillicothe Friday night. By the way, when the Cavaliers scored on their opening drive, it was the first time all season the two-time defending state champion Falcons had trailed in a game this season. AIR RAIDS: Huber Heights Wayne’s D’Mitrik Trice was 14 of 25 passing for 304 yards and two TDs in a 32-0 win over Kettering Fairmont; and Dom Fuller attempted only four passes in Arlington’s 62-0 win over Arcadia, but all four went for TDs. NOTEWORTHY: Behind 283 yards rushing and three TDs by Breck Turner, Norwalk stayed perfect by beating Bellevue, 49-27 — marking the first time since 1949-50 that the Truckers beat the Redmen in consecutive seasons; Chillicothe Zane Trace recovered four fumbles — two each by Walt Petzel and Aidan Place — in a 35-16 win over Piketon; Defiance Tinora limited Sherwood Fairview to 2 yards rushing, three first downs (two on penalties) and 41 total yards in a 45-0 triumph; had the season ended this past weekend, six of the 10 Midwest Athletic Conference schools would be in the playoffs (Coldwater, Fort Recovery, Marion Local, Minster, Delphos St. John’s and Versailles); Dustin Foley of Hamilton Ross returned an interception 105 yards in a 40-21 victory over Niles McKinley; Monroe, coming off a 1-9 season, improved to 6-1 with a 30-0 victory over Germantown Valley View; Ironton ran 71 plays and had 24 first downs in a 25-24 win over Col. St. Charles, which ran only 23 plays with eight first downs; and Symmes Valley won 16-0 and held Sciotoville East to only 38 yards total offense — none passing. Jeff Siner | Charlotte Observer | MCT NASCAR Nationwide Series driver Brad Keselowski celebrates his victory in the Drive for the Cure 300 at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord, N.C., on Friday, Oct. 10. Keselowski, Stewart fined after Charlotte CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — NASCAR fined Brad Keselowski $50,000 and Tony Stewart $25,000 on Tuesday for their roles in the fracas after the race at Charlotte Motor Speedway over the weekend. Both drivers were also placed on probation as NASCAR said the penalties “are about maintaining a safe environment following the race.” Matt Kenseth and Denny Hamlin were not penalized for their roles in the post-race skirmishes after Saturday night’s race. “We knew that the new Chase format was likely going to raise the intensity level, and we want our drivers to continue to be themselves,” said Robin Pemberton, NASCAR senior vice president of competition and racing development. “However, the safety of our drivers, crew members, officials, and workers is paramount and we will react when that safety could be compromised.” The sequence of events began on the cool-down lap when Hamlin admittedly brake-checked Keselowski to show his displeasure with how Keselowski raced him over the final two laps. Keselowski then tried, but failed, to spin Hamlin. He then hit Kenseth’s car as they traveled toward pit road in an act of retaliation, Keselowski said, for Kenseth driving across the front of his car under caution with six laps remaining in the race. Keselowski inadvertently ran into the back of Stewart’s car as the entire field headed toward pit road. Stewart responded by backing his car up into Keselowski’s car. Keselowski then drove around several stopped cars and into the garage, with Hamlin following in his car. The two drivers cut through an empty garage stall before coming to a stop, and Hamlin had to be restrained from confronting Keselowski. As Keselowski walked between two team haulers, Kenseth rushed in from behind and jumped him. Crew members quickly peeled Kenseth away and he made it clear he was upset Keselowski hit him while his seatbelts were off and his window net down. Keselowski could be heard on video yelling: “You hit me under yellow!” Hamlin, Kenseth and Keselowski are all competing for the Sprint Cup championship, and poor finishes Saturday night have Kenseth and Keselowski on the brink of elimination. Stewart did not qualify for the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. His involvement — however brief — put the three-time champion back in the spotlight. He sat out three races in August after a sprint car he was driving struck and killed Kevin Ward Jr. at a dirt track in upstate New York; a grand jury decided he would not be charged in Ward’s death. The penalties for Keselowski and Stewart are in line with past punishments for drivers who used their cars to retaliate. NASCAR did not find that Hamlin deserved to be punished for following Keselowski through the garage in his car, an act many onlookers deemed dangerous in a crowded and dark work space. NASCAR also didn’t follow precedent in not fining Kenseth. Both Marcos Ambrose and Casey Mears were fined in May for fighting in the garage, but Ambrose threw a punch in that situation. There was no evidence Kenseth threw a punch on Saturday night. Committee cautious when talking football By Ralph D. Russo Associated Press West Virginia athletic director Oliver Luck takes what he calls a lawyerly approach to talking about his involvement with the College Football Playoff selection committee. Luck focuses on process over substance. “That’s easy for me as a lawyer,” he said. He’ll talk about how he and the rest of the committee responsible for picking the four teams that will play for the national title plan to go about making that decision. When the cocktail party conversations turn to which team is better — say, Alabama or Oklahoma and West Virginia has played both — Luck politely eases out. “I’m very sensitive about that,” he said. While all 13 selection committee members have been encouraged to steer clear of public opinions about teams and how the season is playing out, the ADs have been advised to be especially cautious about what they do and say for fear of being perceived as biased. “Our positions require us to be a little more out in front,” Clemson athletic director Dan Radakovich said in a telephone interview Monday. Along with Luck and Radakovich, the five current athletic directors on the committee are: Arkansas’ Jeff Long, who is serving as the committee chairman, Wisconsin’s Barry Alvarez and Southern California’s Pat Haden. The committee will release the first of its weekly Top 25 rankings on Oct. 28. On Dec. 7, it will set the four-team field for the College Football Playoff and pick many of the teams that will play in the four other top New Year’s Bowls. Earlier this season, Haden forced the College Football Playoff into damage-control mode when he came down to the field during the Stanford game and confronted game officials. Haden was fined by the Pac-12, but his status on the committee did not change. �CLASSIFIEDS 8 Wednesday, October 15, 2014 Daily Sentinel EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY Professional Services Stanley Tree Trimming & Removal • Prompt and Quality Work • Reasonable Rates • Insured • Experienced • References Available Gary Stanley 740-591-8044 60533755 Please leave a message Notices NOTICE OHIO VALLEY PUBLISHING CO.

But OSU’s conference victories have come against Iowa State, Kansas and Texas Tech —a trio tied at the bottom of the Big 12 standings, all 2-4 overall and 0-3 in the league. “We’ve played a lot of football games here over the last five or six years with very experienced and NFL-caliber players, and right now we’re a young inexperienced team. So it’s different,” Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy said. “There’s some adjustments that we’re going through, but it’s OK. We’re glad that we’ve won five football games. But we know this week, and as we progress through the schedule, we’re going to play some really, really good football teams, and we’ll have our work cut out for us.” TCU coach Gary Patterson said he had no concern about his team being able to rebound from the 61-58 loss to Baylor, which kicked a field goal on the game’s last play. He said the Frogs had a “much better practice” Sunday than they did a week earlier when coming off an emotional home victory over then-No. 4 Oklahoma. Patterson’s message to his players was the same after both games: They have to move forward and can’t get too high or low to win a championship. “There were our goals, and there were everybody else’s,” Patterson said. “I don’t think anybody expected us to be 4-1 and take two of the teams in the top five in the nation to the wire, beating one and losing by three points to the other one.” The Bears follow their wild victory by going to West Virginia, where two years ago they fell 70-63 in the highest-scoring Big 12 game ever. Last season, Baylor won 73-42 at home against the Mountaineers (4-2, 2-1), who this season have already matched their 2013 win total after its own comeback Saturday. WVU rallied from 14 points down in the fourth quarter at Texas Tech and won when sophomore Josh Lambert kicked a 55-yard field goal as time expired. Asked if he expected another high-scoring game this week, Briles responded, “It’d be OK if we had one more (point) than them at the end. … It’s just going to be another great matchup.” OSU Buckeyes return vs. Rutgers COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — It only seems as if No. 13 Ohio State has been out of action more than it’s been in action the past few Saturdays. After two bye weeks in the last month, the Buckeyes play on the next seven Saturdays to complete the regular season. How things turn out will determine if they’re busy an eighth consecutive weekend at the Big Ten championship game. The Buckeyes (4-1, 1-0 Big Ten) are tired of sitting around and watching other teams play. “Oh, yeah, man. I’m glad it’s here,” wide receiver Evan Spencer said of this week’s game at home against Rutgers (5-1, 1-1). “Going through the bye week and having bye-week practices, it’s always good to refine some skills. But game weeks are always different. Everybody’s excited to kind of get going and get back in the groove.” Since coach Urban Meyer has never had so many byes so early in a season, he’ll challenge his team — today and for the days to follow. “If you have a bad team and guys that don’t quite listen to you, then you have to create things,” Meyer said on Monday. “(But) I’m going to talk to (our players) like grown men, and I’ll say, ‘This is where we’re at, this is what we have to do, you’ve had three days off, let’s pick up and go.’ I’m anticipating that they’ll answer.” The teams have a lot in common, even though the Scarlet Knights are a novelty in their first year in the Big Ten. They also are coming off a bye week and have also won their last three games. Coach Kyle Flood said his team benefited in the classroom by the Saturday off. “The biggest advantage we got from the bye week was when it fell academically into our calendar. Last week was a very academically intensive part of our semester,” he said. He added, “You always get a little bit healthier on the bye week. I think we handled that part of it well.” Meyer isn’t happy that his young team — riding a threegame winning streak with an average score of 56-17 — didn’t have a game again last week. It had been on such a roll. But he feels the Buckeyes made the most of the time, working on some problem areas while taking a deep breath before the trials that await. “Once again, I like our team,” Meyer said. “We’re certainly nowhere near where we’ll end up, in my opinion. We’re still growing and getting better. We’re a much better team than we were two weeks ago and that’s because you get in the game and gain experience.” The Buckeyes were clicking on offense, scoring at least 50 points in their last three games, before taking off last week. Offensive coordinator Tom Herman said a break can disrupt a team’s rhythm and timing and also cause it to lose concentration. “We need to do a good job of refocusing the team today and understanding that what lies ahead is as stiff a challenge as we’ll face on defense,” Herman said. “These guys throughout the season kind of handle themselves as pros and I don’t think that’s going to be an issue, although we’ll certainly address it with them and harp on the fact that we do need to now refocus since we’re in game week.” WEDNESDAY EVENING BROADCAST 3 (WSAZ) 4 (WTAP) 6 (WSYX) 7 (WOUB) 8 (WCHS) 10 (WBNS) 11 (WVAH) 12 (WPBY) 13 (WOWK) CABLE 6 PM WSAZ News 3 WTAP News at Six ABC 6 News at 6 In the Americas Eyewitness News at 6 10TV News at 6 p.m. Modern Family BBC World News: America 13 News at 6:00 p.m. 6 PM 6:30 NBC Nightly News NBC Nightly News ABC World News Nightly Business Report (N) ABC World News CBS Evening News Two and a Half Men Nightly Business Report (N) CBS Evening News 6:30 WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 15 7 PM 7:30 Wheel of Jeopardy!

TV14 Homeland "Shalwar The Affair Kameez" Sam Riche | MCT Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin watches game action in the first half of their game against the Colts on Sunday, September 25, 2011, in Indianapolis, Indiana. Erratic play has Steelers searching for some answers PITTSBURGH (AP) — Mike Tomlin doesn’t have the patience or the roster depth to make sweeping changes. Besides, the Pittsburgh Steelers coach isn’t sure they’re necessary. Last Tomlin checked, his team was 3-3 not 0-6, even if it felt that way after Cleveland crushed the Steelers by three touchdowns last Sunday, Pittsburgh’s worst loss to its nearest rival in a quarter-century. “We are a .500 football team,” Tomlin said. “That’s not something we desire to be.” Yet, it beats a bleaker alternative. Pittsburgh has been a maddening mixed bag during the first six weeks, flipping between exciting and erratic, often from possession to possession. The same team that trailed 31-3 in the fourth quarter Sunday dominated the first quarter and had a chance to take a two-score lead before fizzling. “We got to put a more positive, consistent performance on the grass than we’re putting right now,” Tomlin said. That means there may be some new faces in the huddle when the Steelers begin a pivotal three-game homestand Monday against Houston (3-3). Rookie nose tackle Daniel McCullers will likely be active for the first time with starter Steve McLendon out with a shoulder injury. And 6-foot-4 rookie wide receiver Martavis Bryant may finally get a chance to provide quarterback Ben Roethlisberger with the big red-zone target the Steelers have lacked for the better part of a decade. It’s not the way Tomlin would like to get his first-year players into the mix, but borne out of necessity because the veterans are not producing regularly. Offensive coordinator Todd Haley defended his playcalling in the red zone in a loss to Tampa Bay and a win over Jacksonville, a stretch in which the Steelers passed the ball on 18 of 19 snaps taken inside the opponent’s 20. He leaned heavily on the run against the Browns, including three straight from the Cleveland 7 in the first quarter. The drive ended the same way many others have: with Shaun Suisham trotting on for a field goal attempt. At least Suisham had a chance to salvage some points. He wasn’t so fortunate the next time the Steelers took a snap deep in Browns’ territory, when a third-and-3 from the Cleveland 17 quickly turned into disaster. Markus Wheaton couldn’t hold on to a Ben Roethlisberger pass that would have given Pittsburgh a first-and-goal. Holder Brad Wing botched the snap on Suisham’s ensuing field goal attempt, and Wing was driven into the ground. Five plays later, the Browns were in front and the Steelers were left wondering how a team that is sixth in total offense is 23rd in scoring — and sinking fast. “What I’m looking for is touchdowns,” Tomlin said. “I’ll be up here every week analyzing why we ran or why we passed or why we didn’t run or why we didn’t pass if we continue to kick field goals or attempt to kick field goals. The bottom line is we have to get the ball in the end zone in a more consistent manner when we’re on the short field.” � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
