Vol. 63, No. 91

EMS-911 director submits resignation
Charlene Hoeflich

choeflich@civitasmedia.com

POMEROY — The resignation of Doug Lavender as director of the Emergency Medical Services and 911 as well
as Training Site Director, was
accepted by the Meigs County
Board of County Commissioners at its Thursday meeting.
In his letter of resignation,
Lavender said he has enjoyed
his 21 years with the EMS and
911 but was resigning for family
reasons and has plans to return
to his prior career in nursing. He
also noted that he is vacating his
positions on LEPC, the Family
Healthcare Executive Board and
the Healthcare Coalition.
As a part of his resignation
letter, he made some recommen-

dations as to current employees
qualified to fill the position,
and also gave some suggestions
about changes needed for future
growth which are contingent on
budget and management .
The Commissioners are currently advertising for an EMS director with letters of application
to be submitted by June 14.
The $31,050 bid from Ron
Evans Enterprise, Inc. of Jackson for septic tank repair and
replacement on private property
which had been referred to the
Meigs County Grants Office for
review last week was accepted
by the Commissioners during
the meeting, and a second public hearing on the infrastructure
grant program in which both
Syracuse and Pomeroy have expressed interest was held.

At the request of Chris Shank,
director of the Meigs County Department of Jobs and Family Services, several resolutions were
passed by the Commissioners.
One pertained to an amendment
to the security manual regarding
release of information. Another
addressed the issue of a contract
renewal with the Meigs County
Juvenile Court to provide a juvenile diversion program for an additional year at a cost of $30,000.
Also included in the renewal
requests from the Jobs and Family
Services was a Title 20 contract
with the Meigs County Council on
Aging in the amount of $40,000 to
be used for homemaker services.
A contract amendment regarding youth services provided
through Jobs and Family Services
with assistance from the Meigs

County Sheriff’s office, for services from July 1, 2013 through
June 30, 2014 in the amount of
$140,000 was approved, as was
a contract renewal for work force
and economic services for two
years in the amount of $79,745.
It was reported that the Commissioners had received an allocation for general projects in the
county from Ohio Community
Development Services Agency in
the amount of $86,000.
Read at the meeting was a letter
from the staff of Senator Lew Gentile inviting the Commissioners to
the Rio Grande Center on June 10
where he will be speaking.
It was also noted that on Friday, June 21, there will be a hot
dog sale on the street near the
Courthouse to make money for
the dog shelter. It was reported

that Dr. Landry will be speaking
on the drug rehab program from
9 a.m. to noon on June 25 at the
Mulberry Community Center.
Announced was the candlelight
vigil on the parking lot in remembrance of people who have died
from drug overdose and in support of those who are currently
in rehabilitation programs.
Steven Mahr , who recently
completed his freshman year at
Ohio State University, attended
the meeting in his quest to
learn how county government
works and to offer his services
in some capacity.
All three commissioners, Tim
Ihle, president, Michael Bartrum, vice president, and Randy
Smith were present for the meeting which opened with a prayer
by Del Pullins.

Walkers gathered before starting the two mile Walk for Life on the steps of Grace Episcopal Church.

Walking for life and helping others
POMEROY — Area residents came together for
the annual Walk for Life for the Athens Pregnancy
Resource Center despite the rain.
Walkers came together at the Grace Episcopal
Church and walked along the river path. The event
which simultaneously took place in locations
at Athens and Nelsonville, is a two-mile walk
designed to bring awareness of the APRC and
raise money as well.
Tania Meek led the walk and represented the
APRC. She spoke before the walk about the services the center offers. The center has locations in
Nelsonville and Athens including an office on the
Ohio University campus. Services include: 24-hour
helpline; high sensitivity pregnancy tests; parenting
classes including Earn While You Learn; adoption
referrals; maternity and infant clothing; furnishings;
post-abortion support; memorial for the unborn;
nutrition education; STD testing and counseling;
relationship counseling; in-school at risk programs;
men’s services; and are in the process of undergoing
medical conversion to offer ultra sounds.
“We are thrilled and excited to see what God is
doing in people’s lives through the Center,” she said.
Totals were not available at press time, but the initial count indicated the combined total at all three
sites was nearing the goal of $10,000.
The APRC also serves residents of Meigs County.

Former OSU player indicted
on drug, weapon charges
Sarah Hawley

shawley@civitasmedia.com

MEIGS COUNTY — Former Ohio State University
football player Raymond A. Small, 26, of Columbus has
been indicted by the Meigs County Grand Jury on drugs
and weapon charges.
Small was indicted on three counts by the grand jury
earlier this year. He appeared in Meigs County Common
Pleas Court for arraignment in mid-May.
Small is charged with aggravated possession of drugs,
a felony of the second degree; aggravated possession of
drugs, a felony of the third degree; and carrying a concealed weapon, a felony of the fourth degree.
According to the indictment, Small was in possession
of 117 bundles of heroin, a schedule I substance and the
amount of the unit doses equals or exceeds 100 unit doses
but less that 500 unit doses. He was also allegedly in possession of 243 oxycodone tablets, a schedule II substance.
The alleged crime occurred on or about February 26, 2012.
According to a report at that time, Small was arrested
on Feb. 26, 2012, by troopers with the Gallia-Meigs Post
of the Ohio State Highway Patrol. He was arrested along
U.S. 33, 3.5 miles west of the William S. Ritchie (Ravenswood) Bridge.
At the time it was reported that Small was found
with 243 pills believed to be Oxycontin, an undisclosed
amount of suspected heroin, some hand-rolled marijuana
cigarettes and a loaded 25 caliber pistol.
ESPN.com reports that the Cleveland native played for
the Buckeyes during their 2006-09 seasons.
Columbus based attorney Eric Brehm has been retained
by Small. Small was released on his own recognizance.
A pretrial hearing is scheduled for July 22 at 11:30 a.m.,
with a trial date of August 8.

Snowville Creamery on Ohio Ecological Food tour
Charlene Hoeflich

choeflich@civitasmedia.com

POMEROY — The
Snowville Creamery in
Meigs County is the first
of several farms and businesses in Ohio which will
be visited on the free public tour series sponsored
by the Ohio Ecological
Food and Farm Association, the Coalition of Ohio
Land Trusts, and the Ohio
State University Sustainable Agriculture Team.
The tour to the Columbia Township creamery
will take place on Saturday,

June 8, from 1 to 4 p.m.
Snowville Creamery is
a dairy processing plant
operated by Warren and
Victoria Taylor. It is located
on Bill Dix and Stacy Hall’s
300 acre pasture-based
dairy farm. Fresh milk from
250 grass-fed, cross bred
daily cows is processed and
packaged on-site.
The touring group will
join creamery owners for
a look at everything from
the pasture and its sustainable management to
the milking parlor and the
creamery to learn how
milk is processed.

According to the Taylors,
the milk is different in that
their contention is that it is
perfect when it comes from
the cow and requires minimum processing. The milk
isn’t homogenized but it is
pasteurized at the lowest, legal temperature, resulting in
what the creamery believes
is milk that tastes “sweet,
clean and delicious.”
The cows producing the
milk are “home grown” in
Meigs County.
Snowville
Creamery
exclusively provides the
cream for the popular Jeni’s
Splendid Ice Creams cen-

trally located in the Columbus area. The milk is sold in
many Ohio stores as well as
in several other states.
Currently the creamery
is in the process of producing yogurt. Four flavors
are currently available in
selected stores, and four
more will become available by fall. The Snowville
Creamery recently announced a planned expansion of the business.

Kasich revises drilling-tax
plan; Ohio budget OK’d
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)
— Gov. John Kasich is trying to line up support in
Ohio’s drilling heartland for
his proposed oil-and-gas tax
increase by offering to send
a quarter of the proceeds
back to Appalachia.
The emerging proposal
is likely to surface as part
of compromise talks on
the $61.7 billion, two-year
state budget that cleared
the Ohio Senate in a 23-10
party line vote Thursday.
Both GOP-led legislative
chambers have thus far
rejected the drilling tax increase, but they supported
significantly different tax
packages that will need to
be reconciled.
The Republican governor
initially proposed raising
severance taxes on Ohio’s
burgeoning shale drilling
industry to 4 percent and
directing proceeds toward
a statewide income-tax
cut. Tax-averse lawmakers,
energy companies and
economically challenged

balked,
forcing
the
administration to regroup.
State Rep. Ross McGregor, a Springfield Republican, said he supported the original proposal
and wants to see whatever changes are necessary to move the drilling
tax forward. He likened
sending money to affected Appalachian areas to
earmarking the bulk of
Turnpike bond proceeds
to northern Ohio, where
the roadway is located.
“I’m sympathetic with
colleagues whose districts
are the most impacted (by
drilling),” McGregor said.
“Certainly, these areas of
the state have had a real
draught in economic development, not just over the
past couple of years but for
decades. I also see taxes
from this resource as a benefit to the whole state.”
The new plan would
raise the severance tax rate
to 4.5 percent and send 25

RAVENSWOOD, W.Va.. — Bethany
Spaun of Pomeroy is one of four McDonald’s® employees in the Tri-State area that
have been awarded a $2,500 scholarship
courtesy of the Betty Hadler Memorial
Scholarship Fund.
The scholarship is locally funded by McDonald’s Owner/Operators in the Tri-State
area, who know their employees work hard
to balance school, work and family. They
are pleased to support these efforts by
providing educational assistance. The recipients were selected based on academic
achievement, job performance, leadership
qualities, school and community involvement and financial need. In addition to
the $2,500 scholarships previously mentioned, two $1,000 and five $500 scholarships were also awarded.
Spaun is a 2013 graduate of Meigs
High School. She participated in archery,
cheerleading, National Honor Society and
Student Council. She also volunteered for
Relay for Life and as a softball and Upward
cheerleading coach. Spaun plans to study
nursing at Kent State University with a goal
of becoming a pediatric oncology nurse.
Spaun has worked at the McDonald’s
in Ravenswood for over three years. She
credits her McDonald’s employment with
teaching her how to work with a team,

train new employees and work with children and families, which will be important
skills in her chosen career.
“Bethany is a hard worker and loves
working with the public and children,”
said Lee Spaun, general manager of McDonald’s in Ravenswood. “She is very dependable, trustworthy and dedicated. Our
customers love to see her in the drive thru
because of her big smile and personality.”
The namesake of the scholarship,
Betty Hadler, was a McDonald’s Owner/
Operator in Marietta, Ohio for 17 years.
Until her death from bone cancer in 1993,
Hadler was an active member of her community and believed the greatest success
was helping others succeed.
She was honored with the first Marietta
Area Chamber of Commerce Business Person of the Year Award and was also a member and President of Zonta International,
an organization that helps women become
stronger business and community leaders.
Laurie Strahler, Hadler’s daughter and
the current Owner/Operator of five McDonald’s restaurants in the Marietta, Ohio
area said, “My entire family is extremely
honored that this scholarship was named
in my mother’s memory. We’re all very
proud of the achievements of these outstanding individuals and wish them the
best as they continue their education.”

through their development
agencies. The remaining
75 percent would still go
to statewide income-tax reductions. That could mean
more than $370 million for
the region and $1.1 billion
in tax cuts over five years.
Kasich spokesman Rob
Nichols said that through
discussions on the tax,
the administration has
determined that offering
a portion of proceeds to
the region where drilling
is booming is “the right
thing to do.”
“All of Ohio stands to
benefit enormously from
the shale boom, especially eastern Ohio,” he said.
“As the boom continues
to grow it’s only right
that eastern Ohio communities have the resources

Screenings
PFOA, became the subject
of a class action lawsuit
against DuPont by thousands of people whose
water became contaminated with the manmade
substance as the result of
manufacturing processes
at DuPont Washington
Works near Parkersburg,
West Virginia. As a condition of a groundbreaking
settlement
agreement,
a panel of independent
epidemiologists
known
as the C8 Science Panel
was selected to determine whether or not the
impacted population was
at greater risk for disease
because of the exposure.
The C8 Medical Panel,
which includes Dean Baker, MD, M.P.H., Melissa
McDiarmid, MD, M.P.H.,
D.A.B.T., and Harold Sox,
MD, M.A.C.P, was appointed to determine what
medical screening is appropriate for people who
have been drinking water
contaminated with C8 in
light of findings by the C8
Science Panel.
Water districts found to
be contaminated with C8
include Belpre, Tuppers
Plains, Little Hocking and
Pomeroy, Ohio and Lubeck
and Mason County, West
Virginia. The criteria for
participation in medical
monitoring is not based
on an individual’s current
place of residence. According to the settlement
agreement, class members
are those residents who

lived or worked in one of
the local water districts
and consumed the water
for more than one year
prior to 2004.
In a report filed with
the Wood County, West
Virginia Circuit Court on
May 24, the C8 Medical
Panel developed a protocol for the six diseases
linked to C8 exposure.
This document will provide guidance for class
screening and diagnostic
testing to be provided to
members of the class at
DuPont’s expense.
The Medical Panel recommends that every member of the class should
have access to screening
and diagnostic testing, regardless of whether they
have a primary care physician or medical insurance.
Some specific screenings
are based on criteria such
as age or pregnancy status.
High Cholesterol
Class members age 2 and
older should be screened
for high cholesterol by
means of a blood test.

for children, but encouraged physicians to talk
with parents about whether to screen.
Pre-eclampsia
Medical screening for
the onset of gestational
hypertension and preeclampsia is a standard
component of prenatal
care which should be made
available to all class members who become pregnant.
Ulcerative Colitis
In order to screen residents for ulcerative colitis,
the medical panel recommended that a questionaire regarding symptoms
should be completed beginning at age 15. Those
with symptoms should
have a sigmoidoscopy or
colonoscopy and biopsy.
Clinicians may request
other laboratory testing or
stool testing.
Testicular Cancer
The panel also recommended the administration of a questionairre for

Thyroid Disease
All adult class members
should have a one-time
screening for thyroid disfunction. The screening
program should make an
“especially determined effort to identify pregnant
women, or women trying
to become pregnant, and
screen them for thyroid
disease”. Also, the panel
recommended
against

male class members age 15
through 50 to evaluate risk
factors related to testicular
cancer. Routine check-ups
for children should include
an examination of the genitalia until self-examination
can be taught. Ultrasound
is recommended for high
risk individuals.
Kidney Cancer
According to the Medical Panel’s report, there
is no inexpensive, accurate test suitable for
mass screening for kidney
cancer. The panel recommends an imaging test for
class members who suffer
from gross hematuria or an
abdominal mass.
One item that remains
unclear is how long the
medical monitoring will
continue into the future.
The Medical Panel “decided to defer addressing this
issue in order to concentrate on defining the protocol for initial screening
and diagnostic testing”.
In the near future, the
Medical Panel is expected
to develop a form that

said when the plan for
implementation is in place,
impacted residents will receive additional notice on
how to participate.
“We have received the
Medical Panel Report,
and are reviewing its recommendations,” said Dan
Turner of DuPont Public
Engagment and Media
Relations. “DuPont understands the Medical
Panel has additional work
to complete under the settlement. DuPont continues to fulfill its obligation
under the settlement and
looks forward to receiving the additional information from the Medical
Panel. Consistent with
our core values of health,
safety and environmental
stewardship, DuPont has
taken and continues to

God. Saint Paul addressed
this many times. He said
that even if we are slaves,
we are to do our work well.
We are to be humble and
work hard at everything
we do, doing it as if it is all
for God alone. We are supposed to love God and love
our neighbor. Wow. If we
could just do that, how awesome would that be?
We should be one in
spirit, and one in the Lord.
We should be unified as
Christians, not divided and
judgmental of one another.
We should not be judging
anyone and that includes
looking down at poor people, people without employment and those with “less
than popular occupations.”
We should be following that
simple, yet so complex commandment to love God and
love one another. I think it
all comes back to a song by
Jason Upton. “They Will
Know We are Christians
By Our Love” pretty much
says it all.
“We will walk with each
other. We will walk hand
in hand. We will walk with
each other. We will walk
hand in hand. And together
we’ll spread the news. That
God is in our land. We will
work with each other. We
will work side by side. We
will work with each other.
We will work side by side.
And we’ll guard each man’s
dignity. And save each
man’s pride. And they’ll
know we are Christians. By
our love, by our love. Yes,
they’ll know we are Christians by our love.”
If you profess to be a
Christian, then you should
walk in that faith. Everything from the way we treat
servers at restaurants to
employees to our children
to the police officer that
writes you a ticket — ALL
— should be treated with
respect and love because
we are followers of the man
from Galilee. He gave all
that we might have life. He
forgave those who nailed
him to a tree, what is your
problem? Forgiveness, love
and patience are all a part
of being a Christian. It is
that plain and that simple.
What is the occupation of
your heart? What or who
occupies it?
It is time that we were
more concerned with
guarding each one’s dignity
and walking hand in hand.
It is time that we turn the
tide of division with unity.
It is time we stopped worrying about conspiracy
theories and doom and
gloom by living a life trusting that God is still on the
throne. It is time we turn
the tide by carrying our
candle — one light, one
heart — to the darkness.
It is time we stop walking
in fear and start walking in
hope only God can give. It
is time we stopped seeking
the rapture just so we can
point judgmental fingers at
those who disagree with us.
It is time we lived the Gospel of Christ that the captives may be set free. It is
time to strip away our own
personal hang-ups and replace them with the power,
might, and light of the Holy
Spirit. It is time we love. It
is time, so that my daughter’s generation and future
generations may have an
America where Grace is

At this point, the doctor
looks at him with a frustrated and bewildered look on
his face and responds: “I’m
not sure, I can’t even get
my medical bag opened.”
Isn’t it interesting how
many times we go to
“Doctor Jesus” for our
needs, only to see no results
for a while. However,
what we do notice is God
working on other areas
of our lives which causes
frustration. We are praying
for one thing, but seemingly
getting answers for others,
leading to the issue at hand.
As we anxiously await
for our breakthrough we

see God working in other
areas, causing more frustration, generating more
questions, and at times
we can even become angry with God. Since we do
not want to “square off” at
God due to our reverence,
yet we take our frustrations and anger on others.
After a while, we ask
questions such as: “God
what is going on here?
What is wrong with my
spouse? What is wrong with
me? When are you going to
answer my prayers? Why
won’t you listen to me?”
His response becomes
rather perplexed to our

senses, when He replies:
“As soon as I can get other things strengthen out,
then I’ll deal with your immediate request.”
I want to encourage you
today to keep in mind that
as you pray and do not get
your prayers answered
“promptly” God has not
forgotten about you. In fact,
God is working other things
out on your behalf, so that
when He does answers your
immediate prayer everything falls right into place.
God knows what He is
doing, and sometimes He
needs other “tools” to work
with as He fixes other areas

in our lives, before He digs
into His “medical bag” and
provide us with the breakthroughs we need.
God is a good God and
He has His best interest at
heart for you. Make sure
to use your time at the
“waiting room” to discern
the times and seasons of
God instead of allowing
the enemy to generate
questions, fears, insecurities and anger as you wait
for your answer. God is
not interested in giving
you just “an answer” to
your prayers, He want to
give you a breakthrough.
Make it a Great Day!

IRS official apologizes
for lavish CA conference
WASHINGTON (AP) —
An Internal Revenue Service official whose division
staged a lavish $4.1 million
training conference and
who starred as Mr. Spock
in a “Star Trek” parody
shown at the 2010 California gathering conceded
to Congress on Thursday
that taxpayer dollars were
wasted in the episode.
“We’re now in a very different environment” with
new IRS spending curbs,
Faris Fink, who was a top
deputy in the agency’s
small business division at
the time, told the House
Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
Fink, who now heads that
24,000-employee division,
said he believes many of
the expenditures “should
have been more closely
scrutinized or not incurred
at all and were not the best
use of taxpayer dollars.”
The mea culpa by Fink
was echoed by new acting
IRS chief Danny Werfel
as the embattled agency
struggled to contain public and congressional ire
over its targeting of conservative groups seeking
tax-exempt status and its
spending of $49 million on
225 employee conferences
over the past three years.
Werfel called the 2010
gathering in Anaheim, Calif., “an unfortunate vestige
from a prior era” and said
IRS spending on travel and
training has fallen 80 percent since then.
“Our work in this area is
one part of a much larger
effort to chart a path forward in the IRS. This is
obviously a very challenging time for the agency,”
Werfel said.
Werfel, who testified
after Fink had left the
committee room, became
acting commissioner last
month after President
60419085

Barack Obama forced Steven Miller out of the job.
Werfel appeared a day after putting two IRS officials
on administrative leave for
accepting free food at a party in a private suite at the
Anaheim conference.
Fink insisted that his
agency followed federal
guidelines in planning the
gathering for 2,600 IRS
workers in Anaheim. He
said the conference was
justified because at the
time, around 30 percent
of its managers were new
and the agency was facing
increased security threats.
Sitting at the same witness table was J. Russell
George, the Treasury inspector general whose
scathing reports on the
IRS’ targeting of conservatives and conference spending have rocked the agency.
George said he uncovered
no criminal violations involving the conference.
Those comments didn’t
shield Fink from a threehour tongue-lashing from
the panel.
Committee Chairman
Darrell Issa, R-Calif., called
the spending for the California conference “at best
maliciously self-indulgent.”
Top panel Democrat Elijah Cummings of Maryland
said he viewed the “Star
Trek” video at 3 a.m. Thursday and said, “I tried to get
to the redeeming value.
Can’t get there.” And Rep.
Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y.,
called the video “an insult to
the memory of ‘Star Trek.’”
Fink sat stoically as TV
screens in the hearing
room showed excerpts of
that nearly six-minute video, in which he and other
IRS employees wore “Star
Trek” uniforms on a set resembling the bridge of the
series’ Starship Enterprise
and Fink sported pointy
ears and a black wig.

“It’s embarrassing and
I apologize,” he told the
lawmakers. He called the
video “a well-intentioned
way to use humor to open
the conference.”
George’s report concluded that rather than saving
money by negotiating lower
room rates with the three
Anaheim hotels, the IRS
paid a standard government
rate of $135 per room but
accepted perks in return.
Asked why the IRS
didn’t negotiate for lower
room rates, Fink said, “I
was not aware we had the
ability to do that.”
The perks included some
tickets to Los Angeles Angels baseball games and
free upgrades for some
executives to fancy suites
that normally cost up to
$3,500 per night and included wet bars and billiard tables. The report
said 132 IRS employees
got room upgrades.
The report found the
IRS used two private event
planners whose commissions were based on the
hotel bills and therefore
had no incentive to save
money; spent $50,000 on
the “Star Trek” video and
another showing IRS employees line dancing; and
paid $135,000 to 15 outside speakers.
It also spent $35,800 for
IRS workers to make three
planning trips to the conference site; paid $30,000
for 45 IRS workers in local offices to stay in hotels and collect per diem
expenses from the government; and spent more
than $64,000 for gifts including bags and journals
with the conference logo.
The conference included
two dozen workshops, including one led by IRS officials entitled, “Political
Savvy: How Not to Shoot
Yourself in the Foot.”

Rodriguez to ‘monitor’ MLB investigation
NEW YORK (AP) — Alex
Rodriguez says he plans to keep
tabs on developments in Major
League Baseball’s latest drug investigation — the one where his
name keeps popping up along
with several other stars.
And New York Yankees teammate Derek Jeter says he’ll
comment on the scandal after
A-Rod does.
Rodriguez, an All-Star third
baseman, was among several
high-profile players linked to a
Miami clinic called Biogenesis of
America and its founder Anthony
Bosch in a January report in the
Miami New Times. Bosch agreed
this week to cooperate with
MLB’s probe, which could lead to
suspensions for Rodriguez, Ryan
Braun, Melky Cabrera and others.

MLB hopes Bosch will provide
information implicating players in
the use of banned performanceenhancing drugs.
MLB has already started
interviewing players linked to
Biogenesis.
“Myself and others are being
mentioned in a media report
before the process is even concluded,” Rodriguez said Thursday in a statement issued by his
new spokesman, Ron Berkowitz.
“I will monitor the situation and
comment when appropriate. As I
have said previously, I am working out every day to get back on
the field and help the Yankees
win a championship. I am down
here doing my job and working
hard and will continue to do so
until I’m back playing.”

Rodriguez is recovering from
the hip surgery he underwent
in January and regularly works
out at the Yankees’ minor league
complex in Tampa, Fla.
After The Miami New Times
story was published, Rodriguez issued a statement through spokesman Terry Fahn saying: “Alex
Rodriguez was not Mr. Bosch’s
patient, he was never treated by
him and he was never advised by
him. The purported documents
referenced in the story — at least
as they relate to Alex Rodriguez
— are not legitimate.”
Rodriguez did not stop to
speak with reporters before or after Thursday’s workout in Tampa, where there was heavy rain
from Tropical Storm Andrea.
But Jeter did, saying he had

spoken with A-Rod and that he
seemed “fine,” but wouldn’t go
into further details.
“You guys know what I’m going to say,” the rehabbing Yankees captain said. “I do not comment on anyone’s situation until
they comment on it first. Let him
speak about it first.”
Yankees catcher Francisco Cervelli, recovering from a broken
hand, also was at the training
complex. He said in February he
consulted with Biogenesis after
a foot injury but did not receive
any treatment.
“I’ve got nothing” to add, Cervelli said.
Berkowitz is the latest in a succession of A-Rod publicists. His
Berk Communications has a client list that includes Jay-Z along

with many New York restaurants
and night clubs
Rodriguez hired Richard Rubenstein, a son of New York public
relations executive Howard Rubenstein, in 2009 around the time
A-Rod admitted using PEDs while
with Texas from 2001-03. After
the Miami New Times report, Rodriguez switched to the Los Angeles-based Fahn of Sitrick and Co.
Earlier this year, Rodriguez
hired Miami lawyer Roy Black,
whose clients have included Rush
Limbaugh and William Kennedy
Smith. Jay Reisinger, a lawyer
and agent for baseball players, is
representing Rodriguez in MLB’s
probe. Reisinger was counsel for
Andy Pettitte and Sammy Sosa
during past congressional investigations into drugs in sports.

George Karl out as coach of Nuggets
DENVER (AP) — The
starless Denver Nuggets
just lost their biggest name
on the bench.
George Karl was ousted
Thursday less than a month
after winning the NBA’s
Coach of the Year award.
His tenure with the Nuggets
is over after 8½ seasons.
The longtime coach is
following general manager Masai Ujiri out the
door in Denver after Ujiri, the league’s executive
of the year, recently left
to become GM of the Toronto Raptors.
“So, we lost a GM now
and a coach, what’s next?”
tweeted Nuggets big man
Kenneth Faried.
Karl had just a year left
on his contract, which
may have played a role in
this decision. Calls and
emails to Karl’s representatives were not returned
Thursday.
But Karl did take to
Twitter, posting on his
certified account: “I want
to thank Nuggets fans for
their support over the past
8 yrs. The karma on the
street was incredible. Denver will always be home.”
There are quite a few
teams currently on the
lookout for a new coach.
The Los Angeles Clippers,
Brooklyn Nets and Philadelphia 76ers also have
head coaching vacancies
and the Memphis Grizzlies have given coach Lionel Hollins permission to
speak with other teams.
“George has been an
instrumental part of our
success over the past de-

cade, and we appreciate
everything he did to keep
us among the top teams
in the Western Conference,” team President
Josh Kroenke said in a
statement. “He is a Hall
of Fame coach whose
legacy in Denver will last
for years to come. George
is a legend in the game of
basketball and I could not
have more respect for him
as a person and coach.”
His players shared that
feeling.
“I had a great relationship with him and I was
honored to be coached by
him,” forward Danilo Gallinari told The Associated
Press in an email. “Hopefully the management now
will do smart choices.”
Karl guided the thirdyoungest team in the NBA
to the third-best record in
the Western Conference
with a franchise-record
57 wins, but the Nuggets
were bounced from the
first round of the playoffs
for the fourth straight season. The news of Karl parting ways was first reported
by Yahoo! Sports.
Recently, reports have
surfaced that the Clippers
might be interested in
talking to Karl about their
vacancy. All this week,
Karl was evasive when he
showed up at the team’s
facilities to watch potential draft picks work out
for the Nuggets. Karl declined interview request
after interview request as
he made his way from the
gym to his car.
Karl is the latest to pack

up and leave the team.
Last week, the Raptors
lured away Ujiri, a rising
star among the league’s
front office ranks. Ujiri
earned respect for his handling of the Carmelo Anthony trade to New York
and his ability to assemble
a relatively starless roster
that still managed to be a
formidable foe in the West.
Ujiri helped assemble
Karl’s kind of team this season, one featuring a deep
roster full of up-tempo and
unselfish players. Only, the
year ended in an all too familiar fashion for the Nuggets — another early exit.
The only time Denver advanced past the first round
under Karl was when the
team reached the Western
Conference finals in 2009.
Karl did a masterful job
this season with a lineup
that had nary an All-Star,
was riddled by injuries
to several starters and
wound its way through
a grueling early-season
schedule in which 22 of
the team’s first 32 games
were on the road.
His teams simply wore
out opponents, especially
in the thin air of the Mile
High City, where they
went an NBA-best 38-3 at
home. The Nuggets won
their last 23 games at the
Pepsi Center in the regular
season and went 24-4 overall after the All-Star break.
That’s why the Nuggets
were a big favorite heading into the Golden State
series to open the playoffs. But Denver sorely
missed Gallinari (knee)

and fell in six games to a
Warriors squad that was
led by the sharp-shooting
Stephen Curry.
Still, his work in the
regular season was recognized by the league as
he received 62 first-place
votes, followed by Erik
Spoelstra of the Miami
Heat with 24 votes, for
Coach of the Year. It was
the first time Karl had won
the award in his career and
he joined Doug Moe as the

only Denver coaches to
earn the honor.
The 62-year-old Karl kidded down the stretch that
he’d rather not be Coach of
the Year, only because of the
track record of those coaches eventually being let go.
He led the Nuggets to nine
straight playoff appearances
and a 423-257 mark in the
regular season. Those 423
wins rank second in team
history behind Moe (432).
A two-time cancer sur-

vivor, Karl changed his
coaching style after returning from throat cancer in
2010. He delegated more
duties at practice, relying
on his assistant coaches to
do much of the teaching.
In addition to Denver,
he’s also had coaching stops
in Cleveland, Golden State,
Seattle and Milwaukee during his 25-year career. His
1,131 regular season wins
are among the most in
NBA history for a coach.

Retiring Ohio State

Browns
president cites age, family
COLUMBUS,
Ohio
(AP) — Retiring Ohio
State University President
Gordon Gee attempted to
make his departure personal on Wednesday, citing
everything from his age
to his 7-month-old twin
granddaughters to a California girlfriend as reasons
for his abrupt departure
next month.
He continued to downplay the furor over remarks
first reported by The Associated Press jabbing
Roman Catholics, Notre
Dame and the Southeastern Conference, comments
taken seriously enough by
university trustees that
they threatened in March
to fire him for further verbal transgressions.
If anything, the remarks
helped Gee reflect on what
he wanted to do next, he
said at a morning news
conference.
“It played that role but
not a defining role in terms
of my own conversation
with myself,” Gee said.
Gee left that news conference for a closed-door
meeting with board trustees to discuss a long-term
university plan. He says
that upcoming project is
another reason he wants to
step down now rather than
later. He couldn’t say when

asked if he would have
made a different decision
had the remarks, recorded
in December, not been
made public last week.
Gee explained away his
abrupt resignation by citing a desire not to stay on
any longer.
“I’m not a victory lap
guy,” Gee said Wednesday.
“The last thing I want to
do is be queen for a day.
I want to move on. I want
the university to move on.”
Trustee chairman Robert Schottenstein denied
Gee had been forced out.
In Dec. 5 comments to
the university Athletic
Council, Gee jokingly
referred to “those damn
Catholics” at Notre Dame
and poked fun at the
academic quality of other
schools. He apologized
when the comments were
disclosed, saying they
were “a poor attempt
at humor and entirely
inappropriate.”
Ohio State at the time
called the comments unacceptable and said it had
placed Gee on a remediation plan to change his behavior.
It was the latest in a
string of remarks Gee
has made in recent years
that put him in hot water, though the first that

brought such a strong
warning from trustees. He
apologized last year for
likening the difficulties of
coordinating various university divisions to the
Polish Army.
In 2011, Gee got egg
on his face for saying at a
news conference that rather than firing his embattled
football coach he was worried that the coach “doesn’t
dismiss me.”
In 2010, he apologized
for criticizing other bigtime football programs for
having a schedule equivalent to playing “the Little
Sisters of the Poor.”
Gee, 69, wearing one
of his trademark bowties, said he was finding
it more and more difficult
to do his job the way he
wants, which is like a man
half his age.
“I want to run it in the
way that I can run full tilt,”
said Gee, how says he’s
in good health. “And so
I don’t ever want to ever
lose a step.”
Gee, a Mormon, said
the opportunity to hold
his twin granddaughters in
his arms on a recent cruise
gave him pause.
“I’m sitting on the deck
of the ship, and I’m rocking these little girls, and
I’m thinking this is the
first time I’ve ever rocked
a child for 33 years,” said
Gee, who in a tweet later
in the morning said life “is
all about perspective” and
included a picture of his
granddaughters.

receiver group at minicamp
BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Davone
Bess is the oldest wide receiver on the
Cleveland Browns, but that’s strictly a
relative term.
Bess, 27, is squarely in the prime
of his career and was the most consistent pass catcher throughout a
three-day minicamp that concluded
Thursday.
Emerging wideouts Greg Little and
Josh Gordon are Cleveland’s future at
the position, but Bess might be its most
important asset. The sixth-year pro was
acquired from the Miami Dolphins in
an April 26 trade, then promptly signed
a three-year contract extension.
“My job is to help the Cleveland
Browns win games by making plays,
but I also know they brought me here
to work with the younger guys,” Bess
said. “Greg and Josh, they’re such
physically gifted athletes and they can
run, jump and catch.
“You can tell that they’re hungry, so
I’m just trying to show them the way
I approach the game and answer any
questions they have for me.”
Little was a second-round pick
two years ago, while Gordon, a 2012
supplemental draft choice, cost the
Browns their second-round pick this
spring. At 6-foot-2 and 6-3, respectively, their potential is high, but their
maturity remains a concern.
The latter issue again came to the
forefront Wednesday, when Gordon
used his Twitter account to brag that
he was “undefeated” drag racing on
nearby Interstate 71. The tweet was
deleted within hours.
“Davone goes about his business
the right way and I think it’s rubbing
off on the entire locker room,” quarterback Brandon Weeden said. “He
brings consistency to the field and he
doesn’t make many mistakes. He also

knows how to prepare, so you want to
follow his example as a player.”
The 5-10, 195-pound Bess has lined
up in the slot since arriving in Cleveland, which was his main role throughout his five seasons in Miami. He made
321 receptions and scored 12 touchdowns in 77 games with the Dolphins,
topped by a 79-catch season in 2010.
During the same timeframe, the
only Browns wide receiver with more
than 55 grabs in a season was Little,
who had 61 as a rookie. In 2012, Little
made a team-high 53 receptions and
Gordon had 50.
“You grow up fast being thrown
into the fire like I did, but it made me
a better player, and it will help both
of those guys, too,” said Bess, who
played in his first NFL game at age
22. “But it is a bit weird being the old
man in the group because I remember coming into the league so young.
Now, it’s been six years. Time flies.”
Former Bills receiver David Nelson
likely will join Bess in the slot once
he recovers from reconstructive right
knee surgery, along with speedster
Travis Benjamin. Nelson is one year
younger than Bess, but has played
two fewer seasons in the league.
All five receivers figure to see significant snaps in the up-tempo offense
being installed by new Browns coach
Rob Chudzinski and offensive coordinator Norv Turner.
“With the weapons that we have, and
Norv’s track record for scoring points
and gaining yards, the sky is the limit,”
said Bess, who has posted 130 thirddown receptions over the last five seasons, ranking second in the NFL. “I’ve
felt that way from the first time I met
Norv and Chud because they’re great
guys and you can understand their passion for the game.

CINCINNATI (AP) — Ten of the Bengals piled off the
bus with their green bowling pins in hand, trophies from
their first-place finish.
A boys’ night out? Nope. End of their organized offseason workouts.
The Bengals finished three weeks of workouts by trying
their hand at some other things. They went to Great American Ball Park and took batting practice on Tuesday night before the Reds’ 12-4 loss to the Colorado Rockies. Linebacker
J.K. Schaffer and a few other players reached the stands.
On the final day of OTAs on Wednesday, they loaded
onto buses and headed to a bowling alley called “Super
Bowl” for a different kind of team competition.
The 10-member team led by a guy from the Steelers won
this Super Bowl trophy. Linebacker James Harrison was so
excited that he tweeted updates and photos from the alley.
“It’s a nice little release from being serious and getting
at football all the time,” said Schaffer, who was on Harrison’s bowling team. “Definitely a nice getaway. It was a
lot of fun, too. You get us out there in another competitive
situation, but where we can also have fun.”

Penn St athletic director expects O’Brien to stay
WATERBURY, Conn.
(AP) — Penn State
Athletic Director David Joyner expects Bill
O’Brien to be the Nittany
Lions’ football coach for
a long time — even if
O’Brien keeps attracting
interest from the NFL.
In an interview Wednesday with The Associated
Press, Joyner said he and
O’Brien speak several
times a week and when
they do, “I can tell you we
talk in terms of years and
years. We make plans for
years and years.”
O’Brien led the Nittany
Lions to eight victories last
season, his first with the
school. Penn State was in
the first season of a fouryear postseason ban, part of
severe NCAA sanctions related to the Jerry Sandusky
child sex abuse scandal.

O’Brien, a former NFL
assistant, was courted by
pro teams after the season, but chose to stay put.
Joyner, a former Penn
State wrestler and football player who took over
as athletic director in the
midst of the Sandusky crisis, said he doesn’t stress
over the possibility that
O’Brien will continue to
get NFL suitors.
“First, of all I think we’re
going to have this guy for
a long time. I truly, truly
believe that,” he said. “But
whenever the day comes
that Bill may chooses to
leave — if it’s five years from
now, if it’s 10 years; he may
never choose to leave, this
may be his last job, I certainly hope so — then we’ll
adapt and deal with it.”
The Nittany Lions’ surprising success last season

helped O’Brien win over
Penn State fans, many of
whom were still stinging
over the way the late Joe
Paterno was ousted after the shocking charges
against Sandusky came to
light in 2011.
Yet in a recent Sports
Illustrated story, former
Penn State players and
others who had been associated with the program
under Paterno questioned
some of the changes
O’Brien has made to the
way football players receive medical treatment.
O’Brien responded angrily to allegations that
he was not doing what
was best for his players,
and the story seemed to
signal that there is still a
rift within the Penn State
community.
Joyner said he doesn’t

think that division will push
O’Brien toward leaving, but
he would like his coach not
to have to deal with it.
“It sure would be nice if
Bill could be laser focused
and not have to react and
deal with those type of
things,” Joyner said. “I
think his job would be easier. He’s very good at focusing through the noise as
you know. But nonetheless
it still would be nice not
to have those distractions
so that in my mind that he
could really focus on what
he has to do and his players. As he does, he doesn’t
miss a trick.”
Joyner calls O’Brien the
best rookie head coach
in history, and is happy
to have the problem of
employing a head coach
who others find an

attractive job candidate.
“I’m also flattered because if we’d have made
a lousy hire, you wouldn’t
be asking me these questions,”
Joyner
said.
“That’s the baggage you
get for hiring a really, really good coach. Having
people want to talk him.
That’s great. That’s flattering. All indications are
we’re full speed ahead.”
While Joyner stresses
looking forward, the Paterno family and their
supporters have been
looking back at how the
Sandusky scandal was
handled by Penn State
and the NCAA, trying to
rehabilitate the legacy of
the Hall of Fame coach.
Joyner said the lawsuit
filed by the Paterno family, and their supporters’
attempts to re-examine the

case against the coach and
other school officials made
in the Louis Freeh’s report,
have not hindered the university’s efforts to move
away from the scandal.
“My job is to be laserfocused on moving the
athletic department forward and continuing to
learn from whatever has
come in the past,” Joyner
said. “I don’t begrudge
them their rights and
their feelings, but I don’t
focus on that at all.”
The successful football season, along with a
school-record eight Big
Ten championships in
2012-13, gave Penn State
confidence that the sanctions wouldn’t doom Nittany Lions athletics.
“It said, ‘We can do
this,’” Joyner said. “We can
do this.”

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday, June
7, 2013:
This year you attract new people.
Stop and think before you confide in
someone and tell him or her things that
normally would take you years to reveal.
Remember that trust is a gift, and time
is on your side. If you are single, this
person could be someone you might
start to date. Still, use caution. If you are
attached, you notice how often you and
your sweetie are on different planes.
You don’t need to do anything about it -just be aware. GEMINI understands you
as if you were born in the same family.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)
HHH You might not be aware of the
confusion that surrounds you. You feel
centered and focused. Use caution with
all your energy, as others simply are
not on the same page. Make it a point
to really listen to a friend or loved one.
Confirm all meetings. Tonight: Count on
intensity.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
HHH Whatever a boss or parent says, he or she means. How this
person delivers the message might
change, but the words will remain the
same. Don’t be surprised if you witness
a minor display of frustration. The smart
Bull will say little. Tonight: Maintain a
sense of humor.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
HHHH Others could associate your
dynamic personality with many different experiences. Should you choose
to reveal your fiery side, for example,
people might link you to high-energy
situations. Do not take any comments
personally. Tonight: TGIF! Start your
weekend now!
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
HHH If you can take the day off,
do. Take a walk by the water in order
to center yourself. Choose this type of
experience, and you’ll bypass much of
the confusion that marks today. Use
caution with others, and be aware
that their words speak of the moment.
Tonight: Keep your distance.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
HHHHH Focus on friendship. Let
your imagination play into the moment.
Your fiery side might emerge when
dealing with a friend who seems to
stomp all over your plans. Consider this
behavior a manifestation of this person’s confusion. Tonight: Where your
friends are.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

HHH You might decide to take the
lead in a project, as you’ll note a theme
of chaos running throughout the day.
Investigate what could be the root of
this issue. Consider that you might not
be hearing others clearly. The haze surrounds you, too! Tonight: Celebrate the
weekend.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
HHHH Listen to news with a bit
of cynicism. Your sixth sense kicks in
when you sense that something is off
or not adding up. Confirm facts and ask
questions, as your sources might not
realize that they are giving out distorted
information. Tonight: Try reading the tea
leaves.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
HHH You’ll want to rethink a personal matter. This could be difficult,
as someone might refuse to leave you
alone. Trust that the right moment will
appear, perhaps in a few days. By then,
you will have new information. Tonight:
Grab your favorite person, and go celebrate the weekend.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHH You might think that you
have solid plans, but so many invitations will appear that you could need to
make an adjustment. Whatever you are
doing, make sure that all parties are on
the same page. Confirm meeting times
and place just in case. Tonight: Be reasonable.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
HHH Recognize your limits, as you
start what you think is a very normal
day. Apparently, others already seem
to have bypassed their work schedule
for Friday plans. The reason might not
be as important as you recognizing the
issue. Tonight: Do whatever makes you
feel good.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
HHHH While others might act confused -- or in some cases, ornery -- you
are caught up in your efforts of pleasing
a loved one. You will have to decide
what should be done and what should
be left for a rainy day. A child could
make you laugh. Tonight: Keep spontaneity a high priority.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
HHHH Much is likely to wash right
over you, which will prevent you from
seeing clearly now. You might not want
to deal with what is coming up. Use
caution around a display of anger. You
might be far more vulnerable than you
are aware. Tonight: Home is where the
heart is.
