Beginning on Nov. 1, all U.S. residents who receive benefits from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) will see a cut in their benefits. Formerly known as food stamps, SNAP allows U.S. residents who meet certain income requirements to receive monthly benefits that can only be used for food. According to information from the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services’ Public Assistance Monthly Statistics (PAMS), Gallia County had 7,298 SNAP recipients in May. May is the most recent month available from the PAMS database. Meigs County, meanwhile, had 6,012 SNAP recipients at that time. In 2009, the SNAP benefits were increased as part of the federal government’s economic stimulus program. That increase was temporary, though, and is set to expire at the end of October unless the federal govern- ment takes action to stop it. That seems unlikely, though, as most of the debate in Congress has been over additional cuts to the food program. What this means for area residents is that if they receive any food assistance benefits now, they will see a cut in November. “With the scheduled reduction being a few months away, it is my hope that our federal government will recognize that although unemployment reflects improvement, it is evident that food assistance is still a significant concern and the scheduled reduction should not occur,” said Gallia County Job and Family Services Director Dana Glassburn. “In that, if food stamps were covering current needs there would not be an issue with food banks in Gallia County, as well as throughout the state of Ohio, running out of food. The projected $29 less per month for a family of three would mean an increased demand on food banks which cannot cover the current demand.” For a family of three in Ohio, the maximum amount that the family can currently receive in food assistance benefits is $526. Most families do not receive the maximum amount, though, and the average benefit in Gallia County is $128 per person or $384 for a family of three, according to the PAMS figures. In Meigs County, the average benefit is $122 per person or $366 for a family of three. Beginning in November, the food benefits will be cut by up to $11 for individual recipients, $20 for two-person households, $29 for three-person households and so on, increasing by $9 for each additional person in a household, according to figures from the Center for Budget and Policy Priorities.

O’Bleness consolidates services, forms partnership Staff Report tdsnews@civitasmedia.com MIDDLEPORT — The bid of Enyart & Sons to work toward a solution to the sewer problem between Mill and Main Streets was accepted by Middleport Village Council at its Monday night meeting. It was reported that there is currently no access (no manhole) to that stretch which is causing basement problems for some residents . The plan is to do what is called a “clean-up” entering at each end which may reveal a manhole which has been covered up, but if not to arrange for up to five cleanups. There were two bids on the project which included two to five cleanups with the lowest bid of $2,040.10 for each cleanup being accepted by Council. Discussed at the meeting was the paving currently going on in some sections of streets in Middleport. The work is being done by the contractor, Enyart & Sons, which completed the sewer project. The paving is being done to restore areas where settling or other problems have occurred as a result of replacing the sewers. The cost of the work is being paid from the remainder of grant monies awarded to the village for the sewer project. Mike Hendrickson reported during that the meeting that the impound work is “ready to go,” that the only thing remaining is the screening on the fence and barbed wire on top of it. He also noted that housing inspections are going on and presented a report on the latest 21 inspected. A second reading on an ordinance changing the traffic direction on a section of North Third Street was approved. Two donations were acknowledged, one for $150 from Wayne’s Place in appreciation for the village’s cooperation in closing a section of Race Street for a benefit party, and a second from Vivian May for use of the auditorium for clogging lessons. Council voted to use the money to purchase additional tables and chairs for the auditorium. to share studies with each other through the transmission of images from one location to another. “This is an exciting benefit for our community because it gives our patients that same level of service and expertise they would expect from OhioHealth Riverside Methodist Hospital in Columbus or from any large metropolitan hospital,” said Greg Long, President and Chief Executive Officer of O’Bleness Health System. “The field of radiology has become increasingly specialized and we are pleased to be able to offer to our patients specialists in each area of our imaging to ensure accurate and speedy diagnosis and treatment.” The electronic pipeline to Columbus is part of a recently-completed renovation of the hospital’s radiology department that also includes a consolidation of services and a new mammography suite. “Our goals were to improve privacy, patient flow and accommodations,” said Debra Adams, administrative director of radiology. “It looks like a different place.

Isabel Dill stated that the ride would begin at noon on Saturday, Sept. 28 at the farm located at 34843 Beech Grove Road just outside of Rutland. Despite the bad weather on Saturday, many people arrived earlier in the week, camping and enjoying music on Friday evening. The ride travels for 10 miles through scenic Rutland Township. Halfway through the ride organizers provide an intermission and refreshments. There is no charge to participate in the 10-mile ride though donations to St. Jude are welcome. All the proceeds from the event go to benefit St. Jude Research Hospital. Last year, $23,129.76 was raised for St. Jude with 353 riders registered. This was an increase of more than 100 from 2011, when 222 riders took part, with 286 people either riding or making donations. To date, the annual trail ride has collected $168,871.01 for St. Jude. Once again, ribbons and prizes will be presented to the top three money collectors for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital which has a mission to find cures for children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases through research and treatment.

Applications for those wanting to exhibit art work can be picked up at Farmers Bank in Pomeroy or King Ace Hardware in Middleport. Deadline is Sept. 22. Assistance From Page 1 This is in addition to a cut in food assistance benefits that took place earlier this year for Ohio residents. That cut was related to change in the formula for determining food assistance and how much Ohio residents would be able to factor in for utility expenses. This change resulted in a loss of more than $20 per month in food assistance benefits for many Ohio families. SNAP benefits, as the name suggests, are intended to just supplement the food budget for U.S. residents and the funding provides between two and three weeks worth of food. Many families run out of food at the end of the month and have to turn to food pantries and other charitable organizations. Many Ohio food pantries have reported an increase in demand for assistance in recent years due to the country’s economic problems. Lisa Hamler-Fugitt, executive director for the Ohio Association of Foodbanks, said in an article published in a central Ohio newspaper that the cut in food assistance benefits will hurt Ohio residents in numerous ways, impacting the health of many state residents and also affect- ing the economy, specifically for grocery stores. The Center For Budget and Policy Priorities Report estimates that the SNAP reduction will mean that Ohio will lose out on $193 million in SNAP funding between November 2013 and September 2014. All of that funding is spent at grocery stores, convenience stores and farmers markets. The reduction of SNAP funding in Gallia and Meigs counties could also have a negative impact on local grocery stores. “It will impact grocery stores in our area significantly, but people will find a way to eat, so when they cannot cover costs through food assistance services, human instinct of survival will cause an honest person to be dishonest to feed their family, as well as themselves,” added Glassburn. “That means more expense on tax payers through our criminal system. “The key to public assistance reduction is employment,” said Glassburn. “Without sufficient employment opportunities, we, as a society, have a responsibility to assist one another with basic needs for survival. Otherwise, we are not a civilized society and shall eventually reap what we sow.” Sewer From Page 1 Generator maintenance which powers not only village hall, but the water and sewer systems of the village, was discussed again and it was noted that estimates are coming in but additional ones are expected.

The contention is that aggregation is better financially for residents in that it brings “one big block” to a company which can then offer a the prisoners. He said that one freezer is not providing adequate space, particularly now when the prisoner count is high.

Longtime O’Bleness radiologists John Murrey, DO, and Jeffry Benseler, DO, have joined RRIA and continue to practice at O’Bleness. “Through the use of technology, we feel like we have created the best possible scenario for the community,” Adams said. “We still have local management of our department with local physicians, while offering access to these specialists in Columbus.” Other renovations of the radiology department include the following: Bone density testing and mammography have been relocated from the Castrop Center to consolidate imaging services at one site for the convenience of patients. The hospital now offers a full array of radiologic services including CT, MRI, nuclear medicine, ultrasound, x-ray, bone density testing and mammography. The new mammography suite improves privacy, comfort and patient flow. It is designed for patients to proceed directly from the dressing room into the exam area without having to wait in a public area. Digital mammography remains the standard of care.

Gentile opposes closing of training center COLUMBUS — State Senator Lou Gentile (D-Steubenville) on Tuesday expressed his strong opposition to closing the Jerry L. Stewart Mine Safety Training Center and called on the Ohio Department of Natural Resources to work with the Village of Cadiz to keep the facility open. ODNR Director James Zehringer recently acknowledged his agency is considering shutting down the training center and moving the existing offices to another location. ODNR has not announced plans to reconstruct a new mine training facility. “The safety of Ohio’s coal miners should be a top priority and closing this facility would be a mistake,” said Senator Gentile. “I’ve written to Governor Kasich calling on him to direct ODNR to reconsider its plans to close the Mine Safety Training Center. This facility provides hands-on training that is incredibly important to saving lives if a disaster should strike one of Ohio’s coal mines.” The Stewart Mine Safety Training Center was designed and built in response to the Sago mine disaster in West Virginia that left a dozen miners dead. The Cadiz facility is equipped with a training simulator that enables miners from Ohio and neighboring states to practice safety procedures outside the classroom. “Besides the training center’s safety benefits, it represents an important economic engine in Harrison County,” said Senator Gentile. “The training center provides good jobs and helps support local businesses by bringing hundreds of coal miners to the area, many of whom stay in local hotels and eat in local restaurants.” ODNR officials have cited potential code violations at the Cadiz facility as a reason for closing the training center. However, as Senator Gentile pointed out in a letter to Governor Kasich, “the alleged code violations have never been raised before as a concern, despite the fact that over the past four and a half years, hundreds of miners have undergone on-site training.” Senator Gentile has stated he is willing to work with ODNR and the Village of Cadiz to address any concerns about the current building to ensure the training center remains at its current location. Senator Gentile represents Carroll, Jefferson, Harrison, Belmont, Monroe, Noble, Washington, Meigs, and part of Athens and Vinton Counties.

The two primary points of contention that must be resolved are the overall spending levels of the federal agencies, and whether or not the “Affordable Care Act”, commonly referred to as Obamacare, should be defunded. The Affordable Care Act is proving costly to those families who already have insurance, is having a dampening effect on our economy as businesses lay off workers and cut employee hours, and is proving to be widely unpopular with the American people. In my view, Congress should not increase spending. For all of President Obama’s dire warnings about the spending reductions (his spokesman indicated that the sequester would prove “devastating”), the lower spending levels did not cause the sky to fall. Families have cut their budgets during these challenging economic times, and Washington must do the same. As for Obamacare, I believe it is bad policy. It’s expensive. It will put Washington bureaucrats between you and your doctor. It’s resulting in dramatic premium increases (the Ohio Department of Insurance says the average Ohio family will see a 41 percent increase in their insurance costs), and it’s a primary reason that businesses say they aren’t hiring: compliance costs are too high. Our health care system was far from perfect before Obamacare, but the solution should not be to have the federal government take it over. And, all these negative consequences of Obamacare spell more hurt and more pain for America’s hardworking middle class, those who get up every day and go to work to support their families and keep America moving forward. On Friday, I voted for legislation that keeps the spending cuts in place while also defunding Obamacare. This was an unconventional measure, but the American people are becoming increasingly concerned about In my view, Congress should not increase spending. For all of President Obama’s dire warnings about the spending reductions (his spokesman indicated that the sequester would prove “devastating”), the lower spending levels did not cause the sky to fall. Families have cut their budgets during these challenging economic times, and Washington must do the same. — Johnson how the President’s takeover of America’s health care system will impact their lives. The House of Representatives has heard their concern, and took action to prevent it from being implemented. The resolution has been sent to the Senate for its consideration; it’s now time for the Senate to do its job. But, because Sen. Harry Reid, the Senate Majority Leader, is a supporter of Obamacare, it is widely believed that the Senate will restore Obamacare funding, increase the overall levels of spending, and then send that legislation back to the House. These are challenging times - full of partisanship, gamesmanship, and irresponsible bluster in Washington, on TV, on radio, and online. The President has been talking about a potential government shutdown for months, and many political pundits believe the issue favors the Democrats. Politicians, pundits, and special interest groups all have their own spin and agendas. Some would have me defund Obamacare at all costs (despite the irrefutable math of Republicans controlling one-half of one-third of the federal government), or shutdown the government. But, shutting down the federal government could jeopardize social security payments, ground air travel, prevent our troops from getting paid and equipped, weaken border security, and leave our veterans without the benefits that they earned in defense of our freedom, just to name a few.

Others believe the President should be given everything he wants: more spending, rapid implementation of Obamacare, and higher taxes. I disagree with this view as well. Yes, President Obama was reelected, but so was the House Republican majority. It is my constitutional responsibility to hold President Obama in check when he tries to take America in the wrong direction. Elections have consequences, and the American people spoke clearly in 2012: they want the President and Congress to work together to solve problems and get this economy moving again. We could eliminate the onerous, job killing parts of the President’s health care law, improve the parts of the law that work (like preventing exclusions of coverage for pre-existing conditions, and allowing young people to remain on their parents insurance until age 26), and stop Washington from spending America into fiscal ruin, all without threatening a government shutdown if the President would simply lead, and come to the table to discuss responsible solutions. I believe our federal government is too large, spends too much, and has no business taking over the health care industry. I’ll continue to work hard to repeal Obamacare, replace it with patient centered solutions, and remove the barriers that Washington has placed in the way of our job creators. But, a government shutdown simply because I don’t like the 2012 election results is not the answer. That would be irresponsible. And, there’s far too much irresponsibility in Washington already. David Espo, AP Special Correspondent WASHINGTON — Under relentless pressure from their right wing, Republicans are in the midst of a risky fight with President Barack Obama they know they will lose, little more than a year before an election that history says they should win. To minimize the damage, the party must re-define victory as something less than a full defunding of the three-year-old health care law, yet persuade the most conservative GOP supporters that Republican lawmakers succumbed after a principled fight. All without triggering a government shutdown or a default by the Treasury, or otherwise offending independents whose ballots will settle the 2014 elections. Already, party leaders are making that effort. “I just don’t happen to think filibustering a bill that defunds Obamacare is the best route to defunding Obamacare,” Sen. Mitch McConnell said archly Tuesday. “All it does is shut down the government and keep Obamacare funded.” That was one day after rejecting the path outlined by the party’s rebel-in-chief, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz — who began a speaking marathon on the Senate floor Tuesday afternoon in which he said politicians in both parties routinely ignore the voters’ wishes. Seeking to turn the heat on to Democrats, McConnell said that four years ago they voted for the health care law with the “excuse that they didn’t know how it would turn out. Well, they don’t have that excuse now. I think we deserve to know where they stand now.” In addition to the future of health care and a possible government shutdown, the perennial struggle for raw political power is at the root of the struggle. Republicans will need to pick up six seats in 2014 to win control of the Senate, a tall hurdle but not impossibly so. The party out of power in the White House historically has won an average of three to four seats in midterm elections since 1934, and Democrats are defending a half-dozen in difficult circumstances. In the House, the GOP holds a 233-200 majority with two vacancies, and the historical trends show a 27-seat gain in midterm elections for the party locked out of the White House. Enter the campaign to defund Obama’s health care overhaul, accompanied by the risk of a shutdown or default. Democrats, holding a Senate majority and seeking the same in the House, figure that chaos is their friend in the current political climate. They calculate that the public will blame Republicans for any interruption in government services or benefits, as it did two decades ago in the last shutdown confrontation that approximates the current one. As a result, Democratic leaders employ rhetoric designed to raise questions about Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada routinely refers to them as tea party “anarchists.” Sen. Chuck Schumer if New York says they have embarked on an “insane plan.” New York Rep. Steve Israel, who heads the House Democratic campaign committee, says Republicans have launched a “kamikaze mission to shut down the U.S. government and our economy.” Speaking over the weekend to the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation, Obama was less personal but just as pointed. “This is an interesting thing to ponder, that your top agenda is making sure 20 million people don’t have health insurance,” and you are willing to shut down the government to win the point, he said. Behind the president’s remarks lie Democratic assumptions that the health care law isn’t as unpopular as Republicans say it is, and that millions who now lack coverage will decide they like it once they have it. In a three-cornered fight, each side cites polls to prove its point. Cruz and his allies are focused largely on the tea party slice of the electorate as they flirt with a partial shutdown — an outcome the Texan says he doesn’t want — in their drive to defund “Obamacare.” McConnell and other Republican leaders focus on other soundings. So do Obama and congressional Democrats. Each finds something to like in a survey by the Pew Research Center. Among the general population, just 33 percent of those surveyed said they want lawmakers to defund Obamacare if it means a government shutdown. For independents, it is 36 percent, sobering for Republicans whose goal is to win a majority in November, rather than merely a series of primaries. Among tea party members, 77 percent said they want to defund Obamacare even if a shutdown results. That’s enough to give hope to a challenger running against even the most entrenched Republican next fall, and to a potential 2016 GOP presidential candidate as well. After eight months in the Senate, Cruz is already counted among them, and he has easily eclipsed fellow White House hopefuls Rand Paul and Marco Rubio as the face of the drive to “Defund Obamacare.” The Texas Republican co-stars with fellow Sen. Mike Lee of Utah in television commercials to promote the cause. The ads are funded by the Senate Conservatives Fund, one of a cluster of organizations that makes a specialty of backing tea party-aligned challengers in congressional primaries. For now, at least, establishment Republicans speak dismissively of such organizations, which they accuse of seeking to raise money for their own political purposes with little or no concern for the broader fortunes of the party. Yet they can scarcely ignore them. The Daily Sentinel Ohio Valley Newspapers 111 Court Street Pomeroy, Ohio Phone (740) 992-2156 Fax (740) 992-2157 www.mydailysentinel.com Sammy M.

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — A former superintendent in prison for his actions at the Upper Big Branch mine says his lawyer was ineffective, had conflicts of interest and made him a scapegoat for the 2010 disaster that killed 29 coal miners to help protect former Massey Energy executives from prosecution. Gary May has asked a judge to set aside or change the 21-month sentence he’s now serving at the Federal Correctional Institution at Morgantown. U.S. Magistrate Clarke VanDervort hadn’t scheduled a hearing as of Tuesday afternoon. May said defense attorney Tim Carrico refused to let him testify that illegal advance warning of safety inspections was common practice at former Massey Energy operations now owned by Virginia-based Alpha Natural Resources. May said more than 100 people at Upper Big Branch participated in the unwritten scheme, but he was muzzled to protect executives including Chris Blanchard and Don Blankenship from prosecution in the worst U.S. coal mining disaster in four decades. Blanchard was the president of Performance Coal Co., the Massey subsidiary that ran the mine near Montcoal. Blankenship was Massey’s CEO. May claims that longtime Massey general counsel Shane Harvey was among those directing Carrico’s actions. Carrico didn’t immediately return a phone message, but Harvey denied he had any involvement in May’s case or his attorney’s defense strategy. May said that prosecutors were “looking for a villain,” and that he “became an easy scapegoat for the U.S. Attorney’s Office to relieve public pressure with a conviction and became a sacrificial lamb for Massey and its corporate successor, Alpha.” Assistant U.S. Attorney Steve Ruby declined comment. Earlier this month, Berger sentenced another Massey executive — former White Buck Coal Co. president David Hughart — to 3 1/2 years in prison for his role in the advance-warning system that he testified was common at Massey mines. At his plea hearing, he implicated Blankenship in the conspiracy. Blankenship has never been charged, and federal prosecutors have refused to identify the targets of their continuing criminal probe. Hughart is in federal custody, while former Upper Big Branch security chief Hughie Elbert Stover is also behind bars for his actions in the mine. May, who filed his petition without the help of an attorney, pleaded guilty to a conspiracy charge last year and was sentenced in January to 21 months in prison. He had 17 years with Massey at the time of the disaster and said advance notice of inspections by the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration “is an industry standard,” with inspectors themselves often facilitating. May said Blanchard specifically ordered him to provide such notice at UBB. Yet when he tried to raise the scheme in his own defense, May said, Carrico shut him down. “It is now clear why Carrico was kicking his client May under the table at the sentencing hearing during the court’s questioning,” telling him not to discuss corporate policy, the petition says. “May assumed he would have another opportunity to divulge this information, but this never occurred.” Massey hired Carrico on his behalf, he said, and Alpha paid Carrico after it acquired Massey. Carrico was “in constant communication” and “dependent upon” Alpha’s general counsel, May claims, and also consulted with Harvey’s wife, Blankenship defense attorney Tammy Harvey. Alpha spokesman Ted Pile said May was represented by his own personal attorney. “We’re not aware of any Alpha attorney being involved in providing legal advice, formulating strategy or providing any sort of input for Mr. May’s criminal case,” Pile said in an email. He could not immediately say whether Alpha paid May’s legal bills, as alleged. Carrico also represented Hughart in his criminal case, May’s petition said. Court records show Carrico withdrew about six weeks before Hughart’s February plea hearing. Four separate investigations into the Upper Big Branch disaster found that Massey allowed highly explosive methane gas and coal dust to accumulate, and that worn and broken cutting equipment created the spark that ignited the fuel. Broken and clogged water sprayers allowed what should have been a minor flare-up to become an inferno that ripped through miles of underground tunnels, killing men instantly. MSHA said the root cause of the explosion was Massey’s “systematic, intentional and aggressive efforts” to conceal life-threatening problems. MSHA said mine managers went so far as to maintain two sets of pre-shift inspection books — an accurate one for itself, and a fake one to throw off inspectors. May said he was wrongly accused of disabling a methane monitor in a work area and ordering a subordinate to falsify inspection books, and contends that Carrico refused to have the erroneous facts removed from his pre-sentencing report. That failure, May said, made him appear “more culpable than he was” and affected his sentence. Kenyan president: Terrorists defeated NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — Kenya’s president proclaimed victory Tuesday over the terrorists who stormed a Nairobi mall, saying security forces had “ashamed and defeated our attackers” following a bloody four-day siege in which dozens of civilians were killed. President Uhuru Kenyatta said the dead included 61 civilians whose bodies have been recovered so far and six security forces, while some 175 were injured, including 62 who remain hospitalized. Three floors of the mall collapsed and several bodies were trapped in the rubble, said Kenyatta. His office later said a terrorist’s body was among those in the debris. Five other extremists were killed by gunfire, he said in the televised address to the nation. He said 11 other suspects had been arrested; authorities had previously announced the arrest of seven at the airport and three elsewhere. “These cowards will need justice as well their accomplices and patrons, wherever they are,” Kenyatta said. Kenyatta declared three days of national mourning starting Wednesday. At the Westgate mall, there were no immediate signs of the Kenyan Security forces closing their operation. Two Kenyan soldiers who had recently been inside the mall told The Associated Press shortly before the president spoke that the operation was effectively finished, but they said security forces were still combing the facility and had not definitively cleared all the rooms inside. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were under orders not to speak to the media. Kenyan forces had for two days said they were in the “final phase” of the operation, only to be battled back by the militants inside the building. Explosions rang from the upscale Westgate mall in Nairobi throughout Tuesday, and the chatter of gunfire from inside the building could also be heard. Fresh smoke rose from the building in the afternoon. The Kenyan Red Cross had previously said 62 people had been killed, and it seemed certain that the number of confirmed deaths would rise as security forces search the building. Nairobi’s city morgue had already braced for the arrival of a large number of bodies of people killed, an official said. Kenyan Red Cross spokesman Abbas Gullet said it was still not known how many more may be dead inside the building. “It is certainly known that there are more casualties,” he said. A government official told The Associated Press that the morgue was preparing for up to an additional 60 bodies, though the official didn’t know an exact count. The government official insisted on anonymity so he would not face retribution from government officials. Earlier Tuesday the al-Qaidalinked attackers used social media to give accounts of the fighting inside the mall that conflicted with the government reports. “There are countless number of dead bodies still scattered inside the mall, and the mujahideen are still holding their ground,” the Somali rebel group al-Shabab said in one Twitter message considered to be genuine. It added it still held hostages, who were “still alive looking quite disconcerted but, nevertheless, alive.” Kenyatta did not mention the fate of the hostages — if it was indeed true that there were still some being held — in his address. Al-Shabab, whose name means “The Youth” in Arabic, said the mall attack was in retribution for Kenyan forces’ 2011 push into neighboring Somalia. African Union forces pushed the al-Qaidaaffiliated group out of Somalia’s capital in 2011. “You could have avoided all this and lived your lives with relative safety,” the group Tweeted Tuesday. “Remove your forces from our country and peace will come.” Kenyatta said “initial reports had suggested that a British woman and two or three American citizens may have been involved in the attack,” but that “we cannot confirm the details at the moment. He said experts were working to try and determine the nationalities of the terrorists. Earlier, Kenyan Foreign Minister Amina Mohamed had said “two or three Americans” and “one Brit” were among those who attacked the mall. A security expert with contacts inside the mall described the attackers as “a multinational collection from all over the world.” U.S. officials said they were looking into whether any Americans were involved. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said Monday that the department had “no definitive evidence of the nationalities or the identities” of the attackers. Britain’s foreign office said it was aware of the Kenyan foreign minister’s remarks, but would not confirm if a British woman was involved. Al-Shabab, responding to a request from AP, denied that any women had attacked the mall, saying “these are just baseless rumors.” “We have an adequate number of young men who fully committed and ready to sacrifice their lives for the sake of Allah and for the sake of their religion,” said the al-Shabab press office in what is thought to be an authentic email address. The attack began on Saturday when an estimated 12 to 15 alShabab militants invaded the mall, wielding grenades and firing on civilians inside the complex, which includes shops for Nike, Adidas and Bose and is popular with foreigners and wealthy Kenyans. The militants specifically targeted non-Muslims, and at least 18 foreigners were among the dead, including six Britons, as well as citizens from France, Canada, the Netherlands, Australia, Peru, India, Ghana, South Africa and China. Nearly 200 people were wounded, including five Americans. �The Daily Sentinel SPORTS WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 2013 mdssports@civitasmedia.com Teams look to overpower the other COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio State coach Urban Meyer loves the spread offense. He loves winning with a robust running game even more. In that regard, he’s far closer to Woody Hayes than he is to, oh, Chip Kelly. “We like to pride ourselves on being balanced,” Meyer said Tuesday. “However, (our spread) is very physical — it’s not the chuck ‘n’ duck, basketball-on-grass type of offense at all. It’s a power-oriented run game.” So in other words, when No. 23 Wisconsin comes to Ohio Stadium on Saturday night to face the fourthranked Buckeyes, both sides want to throw the ball, but their first priority is jamming it down the opposing defense’s throat. Even though most Ohio State fans think of Meyer’s spread as a cuttingedge offense with multiple receivers, backs getting the ball out wide, quick snaps, no huddles and lots of passes, in many ways it’s back to the future for the Buckeyes. Make no mistake about it: The Buckeyes like to run the ball. And they like to run it straight at you, if at all possible. Wisconsin first-year coach Gary Andersen, a former Meyer lieutenant who remains a close friend, isn’t misled. “They’re going to do what they do. They want to run the ball first,” he said. “They want to be very effective in the play-action run game. You’ll see the football go out sideways to get you to run, get the defense tired, and they’ll come back at you and start running the ball and trying to be physical with you.” Both Ohio State and Wisconsin are best when running. Wisconsin is third in the nation in rushing, averaging 350 yards. Ohio State is sixth at 311.

Lady Eagles sweep South Gallia Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com MERCERVILLE, Ohio — After having its 39-match league winning streak snapped last Thursday, the Eastern volleyball team returned to its winning ways Monday night following a 25-19, 25-17, 25-22 victory over host South Gallia in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division matchup in Gallia County. The Lady Eagles (13-2, 8-1 TVC Hocking) struggled a bit against SGHS, as the guests trailed in two of the three games played and never led by more than eight points in any one contest. Still, the 3-0 match decision allowed EHS to secure a season sweep after posting a 25-9, 25-17, 25-14 over the Lady Rebels (5-8, 3-6) at Eastern back on August 29. There were six ties and seven lead changes in the opening game, as South Gallia jumped out to an early 7-3 lead — its largest advantage in Game 1. EHS countered with a 7-3 run to knot things up at 10, then went on a 13-7 surge to claim its biggest lead of the opener at 23-17. Both teams traded points over the next four services, which allowed the Lady Eagles to claim an early 1-0 match lead. Eastern never trailed in Game 2 and held leads of eight points on three different occasions, the last of which came at the final score of 25-17 — giving the guests a decisive 2-0 match advantage. The Lady Rebels, however, didn’t make the evening sweep easy on the Lady Eagles, as both teams battled through six ties and seven lead changes in the finale. SGHS also held the biggest lead for either team in Game 3, twice owning advantages of four points — the last of which came at 19-15. Eastern, however, responded with 10 of the next 13 points, allowing the guests to wrap up the 3-0 match deci- Eastern sophomore Kelsey Johnson (22) blasts a spike attempt past South Gallia’s Courtney Haner (12) during Monday night’s TVC Hock- See SWEEP | 8 ing volleyball match in Mercerville.

(AP) — Oklahoma State has had considerable success winning on the road recently and has plenty of confidence heading to West Virginia this weekend for its Big 12 Conference opener. Coming off an early bye week, No. 11 Oklahoma State (3-0) has won its last three games away from Boone Pickens Stadium and has a 16-5 record on the road since the start of 2010. Rallying around an ‘us against them’ mindset has paid off for the Cowboys in hostile territory. “When you’re going to go on the road and play against 50, 60, 70,000 people who don’t like you and want you to fail, you have to get excited for that,” said sophomore quarterback J.W. Walsh. “There’s not a better feeling almost than being able to go out there and shut up 70,000 people.” Several Oklahoma State players noted that coach Mike Gundy has referenced the movie “300,” which features a small group banding together to battle overwhelming odds and a much larger army. “When you go on the road, we’ll travel with 70 players, give or take a few, and with staff, our travel party on an airplane will be about 115,” Gundy said of the typical road contest. “But when you get there, it’s 115 people against however many people their stadium holds, for the most part. We’ve always challenged our team that way to get them to come together as a group and play hard and that gives us the best chance to win.” Heading into Morgantown will feature another interesting wrinkle for the Cowboys, since third-year Mountaineers coach Dana Holgorsen served as Oklahoma State offensive coordinator in 2010. After a 37-0 loss at Maryland on Saturday, West Virginia (2-2 overall) is 0-1 in Big 12 play after a 16-7 defeat at No. 14 Oklahoma on Sept. 7. But even though he’s been gone for three years, Holgorsen’s impact can still be felt in Stillwater, as many current Cowboys were around during his tenure, including running back Jeremy Smith and backup quarterback Clint Chelf. “Coach Holgorsen is a pretty good coach, I know he can overcome (the recent loss),” said Smith, a senior. “West Virginia is a pretty good team, but this really isn’t about them. It’s about the way we prepare, the way we go out there and take care of business.” One of Holgorsen’s biggest contributions to Oklahoma State is the no-huddle offense that has been so successful so far this season, racking up 115 points over the last two games. “The offense that we still run is the offense that he brought here, even though we’ve tweaked it a bunch and added our own nuances over the years,” said Walsh, who See PREP | 10 Sweep From Page 6 sion with a narrow three-point win. Katie Keller led the EHS service attack with 15 points and four aces, followed by Lindsay Wolfe with 10 points and Jordan Parker with eight points. Erin Swatzel chipped in four points, while Maddie Rigsby added three points. Kelsey Johnson and Sabra Bailey also contributed a point apiece to the winning cause. Parker and Wolfe each had two aces for the guests, while Swatzel and Johnson added an ace apiece. Wolfe also dished out a team-high 18 assists, while Parker led the defense with 30 digs. Rigsby added 26 digs , while Paige Cline contributed 24 digs. Parker and Rigsby led the net attack with seven kills each, followed by Swatzel with four kills and Johnson with three kills. Keller added two kills and two blocks, while Parker and Swatzel added two blocks and a block respectively. Bailie Corbin led the SGHS service attack with 10 points, followed by Sara Bailey with eight points and Shelby Sanders with three points. Katie Bostic and Alicia Hornsby each had two service points, while Courtney Haner added one point. Corbin, Hornsby, Bostic and Haner all had one ace apiece in the setback. Haner led the South Gallia net attack with eight kills and two blocks, followed by Bostic and Brynn Adams with six kills and a block each. Rachel Johnson was next with three kills, while Hornsby and Bailey respectively chipped in two kills and one kill.

How you deal with new possibilities could change dramatically. Your ability to trust your knee-jerk reactions will lessen as you recognize that you are breaking patterns. Your choices will add to your quality of life. Your career will be demanding, but you have what it takes to succeed. If you are single, you could meet someone through your work or just by being out and about. If you are attached, the two of you need to pursue a common interest; the time to begin is now. GEMINI teases your imagination. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) You naturally are drawn to the most unexpected situations. The question is: Which way do you go? The answer will emerge quickly, as you are not one for waiting. Understand that many people see you manifest your desires like lightning. Tonight: Catch up on a friend’s news. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Take a look at what is going on within your immediate circle. Understand what is taking place behind the scenes with a money matter. You might sense some deception. If that is the case, go for a holding position rather than cause yourself a bigger problem. Tonight: Your treat. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You’ll beam in more of what you want in order to make a situation work. Fatigue might be the only obstacle preventing you from bringing others together to gain the support that you think you need. You might choose to continue, regardless. Tonight: Ease the pace a bit. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Everyone has days when they don’t feel quite up to snuff. Why would you be any different? Allow yourself to call out of work for the day. If you already aren’t working, play it low-key. Take this time to revitalize and do what you want for a change. Tonight: Not to be found. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might want to see a situation evolve to a new level. It is your focused energy that will take it there. Be sure to take your time, and sift through each possibility to the same end. Trust yourself to find the most appropriate method to get there. Tonight: Share your ideas. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Visualize and create a better platform from which to work, whether you are a boss or an employee. You will find that your effectiveness will be enhanced, and others will respond in a more authentic manner. Tonight: Discuss a grievance with a wise family member or friend. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Your ability to gather the facts and see what is missing will help you as well as others. You’ll weigh the pros and cons of an issue, but know that the outcome will be positive. You have time to fill in the blanks. Someone’s criticism might just be jealousy. Tonight: In the limelight. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Listen to news, and ask for a friend’s perspective. You might opt to go along with this person’s thinking. You could be surprised by the way events play out as a result. When allowed to wander, your mind will come up with amazing scenarios! Tonight: Togetherness works. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You could be taken aback by a situation that is developing. Maintain a sense of humor. You will be happier as a result, and you also will gain a new perspective with ease. Understand what is going on behind the scenes. Tonight: Listen to others’ “war stories” of the day. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Your caring yet methodical manner creates change quickly. Realize what is happening within your circle of friends. Someone might be angry, and this person is likely to toss a boulder in your way. Do not take his or her reaction personally. Tonight: Ask, and you shall receive. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You will go directly toward a creative option that appears quite suddenly. Finding out what is workable could test your limits. You might be holding back your feelings, whereas someone else isn’t. Do not engage this person. Tonight: How about some fun? PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Being centered at home might be a higher priority than it normally would be, as much pressure seems to emanate from others’ demands. You will make an effort to be responsive, but you are only human. Stay somewhat unavailable, and screen your calls. Tonight: Stay anchored. Jacqueline Bigar is on the Internet at www.jacquelinebigar.com. �Page 10 s The Daily Sentinel www.mydailysentinel.com Wednesday, September 25, 2013 UK welcomes winless Vikes, Steelers LONDON (AP) — The NFL is back in London boasting the star power of Adrian Peterson and Ben Roethlisberger. Trouble is, their teams have nothing to brag about. The Minnesota Vikings and Pittsburgh Steelers are both 0-3 heading into Sunday’s game at Wembley Stadium, and a fourth loss will all but put the playoffs out of reach for one of them. The first of two regular-season NFL games is expected to be a sellout despite the teams’ current woes. “It doesn’t bother me. I love the atmosphere,” said Rachel Green, who with husband Matt has been to all six of the NFL games played at Wembley. “I prefer it to be close, which it will more likely be with them both 0-3.” As of Tuesday, about 84,000 tickets had been sold, with only singles and premium seats still up for grabs. The Vikings arrived in London on Tuesday and were already mixing with local schoolchildren and fans as part of the duties of the designated home team. The Steelers arrive Friday. All eyes will be on Peterson, the Vikings running back, and Roethlisberger, the Steelers quarterback, as they look to lead their clubs to victory with their seasons teetering on the brink. Minnesota lost 31-27 to the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, while the Steelers fell 40-23 to the Chicago Bears. “These are two teams that the U.K. crowd have not seen before and you have star power with the Vikings in Adrian Peterson and, with the Steelers, you have one of the most successful franchises in NFL history,” NFL UK managing director Alistair Kirkwood said. “What you want is a very competitive game, and you know you are going to get it with both teams going after a must-win.” The New England Patriots, New Orleans Saints and Denver Broncos are among the teams that have played in London since the International Series was launched. The New York Giants’ victory over the Miami Dolphins in the inaugural 2007 game helped turn their season around en route to winning the Super Bowl. The Vikings went 10-6 last season and made the playoffs, while the Steelers finished 8-8. When they were selected to play in London, no one could have expected they would be a combined 0-6 heading into this week’s game. “For me, the chance to see a team as storied and famous as the Steelers is a big draw,” said 30-year-old Matt Green, who counts the Green Bay Packers as his favorite team. “It’ll be interesting to see how a franchise that has been challenging year in, year out will cope with the difficulties they’ve been facing recently. “To be honest, I would go regardless of the teams playing. The chance to hang out and chat with so many like-minded NFL fans is one of my favorite parts of the day.” The second game, scheduled for Oct. 27, also features two teams currently struggling. The Jacksonville Jaguars’ 0-3 start is not a big surprise, but the reigning NFC champion San Francisco 49ers are unexpectedly 1-2 after two straight losses. Still, the 49ers will likely be heavy favorites. That game is sold out, which bodes well for building the Jaguars’ fan base in Britain. Jacksonville has signed up to play one of its home games at Wembley over the next three seasons.

Emmert says change coming for NCAA GRAPEVINE, Texas (AP) — President Mark Emmert said Monday he expects “a lot of change” for the governance structure of Division I sports over the next year. “I’ve said publicly on a number of occasions the only thing everybody agrees on with Division I governance is that it doesn’t work,” Emmert said during his opening remarks at a meeting of more than 100 Division I faculty athletics representatives. He later said NCAA directors are looking at the next six to eight months in particular. “I think the board anticipates a lot of change,” he said. “They’re going into their October and January meetings expecting to look at a whole different governance model for Division I. So it will be significantly different.” The NCAA’s annual convention is in January. The board hopes to adopt proposals at its meeting next April, and then have a special meeting for the full membership next summer. The discussion focused on transparency and the public perception of the NCAA. Emmert has received sharp criticism for months, for everything from the unprecedented sanctions handed to Penn State for the Jerry Sandusky child sex-abuse scandal to the botched investigation of alleged misconduct in University of Miami athletics. He, and the NCAA in general, have been singled out by conference commissioners, professional athletes and even current college football players. Houston Texans running back Arian Foster, who says in an upcoming documentary he accepted money while at Tennessee, recently called the NCAA a bully. Some college players wore patches Saturday with the letters APU, standing for All Players United, to call for NCAA reform. Additionally, SEC Commissioner Mike Slive suggested last week that the NCAA’s rules on governing agents are part of the problem amid reports of possible problems at Alabama and Tennessee. “I haven’t talked to Mike about it, so I can’t speak for him,” Emmert said Monday. The third-year president is fully aware of the public’s perception of the NCAA. Emmert said the board and other NCAA officials have concerns about that. The public sees him as more of a commissioner of a professional sport, which Emmert said is not the case. He said getting people to understand the NCAA is more than just him or the board of directors — decisions are driven by the hundreds of member schools — is a difficult task. “To think that the president of the NCAA has ever been anything like the commissioner of baseball is ludicrous,” Emmert said, “but yet that would be the most popular perception I suspect that people have of what my job is.” The discussion did touch briefly on whether the NCAA would consider creating a new big-school Bowl Division — in essence, splitting up the current Division I. A packet distributed at the session called “Principles and Model for New Governance Structure” suggests that FBS institutions and conferences that are more closely aligned in issues and athletics resources form a new division. “The simpler the governance structure, the better,” the packet states. TMS planning largest HD video board FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Texas Motor Speedway is planning to have the world’s largest highest-definition video board in place before the NASCAR Sprint Cup race there next spring. TMS officials announced plans Monday night for the nearly half-acre display board dubbed “Big Hoss TV.” The screen will be 218 feet wide and about 95 feet high, and placed about 125 feet above ground in the middle of the backstretch at the 1½-mile track. Construction of the 108-ton board will begin after the Sprint Cup race in November and is scheduled for completion in March. The board will be larger than the 200-footwide, 80-foot-tall screen at Charlotte Motor Speedway, another Bruton Smith-owned track that currently has the biggest such screen. Both video boards are a partnership with Panasonic. Also Monday night, TMS released its 2014 racing schedule. The Sprint Cup race will be on April 6, on a Sunday afternoon instead of its normal Saturday night slot for the spring so as to not conflict with the NCAA Final Four games going on at the Dallas Cowboys’ stadium in nearby Arlington. The other 2014 Sprint Cup race at Texas will be Nov. 2, the eighth of 10 Chase races. The board at TMS will feature 20,634 square feet of HD display, about 79 percent larger than each of the twin video boards with 11,520 square feet of display hanging over the field at the Cowboys’ stadium. Teams From Page 6 Florida A&M, an FCS team, the Buckeyes passed 34 times. But that was an anomaly. Wisconsin would like nothing better than for its big guys up front and in the offensive backfield to decide the game. The Buckeyes swear that regardless of how people define the spread, they remain a power team. “It probably is a little bit of a throwback,” Ohio State center Corey Linsley said. “In terms of our offense, we definitely run a high-tempo offense. That’s our whole goal. But the physicality has never left.” The offense is based on double-team blocks on the line, he added. “If we can’t do that,” Linsley said, “we’ll lose the football game.” That’s a product of the coach. Meyer may be an innovator in the spread, but he first learned the game as an Ohio State graduate assistant under Earle Bruce in the late 1980s. Bruce loved power backs like Keith Byars, but his teams actually passed for more yards than they ran for Dr. Ayoubi, Board Certified Interventional Cardiologist, received his Doctor of Medicine from Indiana University School of Medicine in Indianapolis, Hospital, Indianapolis, Indiana, and completed Cardiovascular Medicine Prep Fellowships at Wright State University, Dayton, Ohio, and at The Ohio From Page 8 Indiana.

People talk about his coaching style, but he was definitely a lot of fun to get recruited by and talk to, and I know he’s a great coach.” Gundy elaborated a bit on the Holgorsen’s role in attracting Walsh to Oklahoma State, which included almost every year. That’s because he used talented receivers such as Cris Carter, Doug Donley, John Frank and Mike Lanese in the open field. “The head coach sets the tone for the program, the mentality of the team, the attitude of the team,” said Ohio State receivers coach Zach Smith (who also happens to be Bruce’s grandson). “It’s no more evident than what we’ve done up to date here, just the intensity that we play with and the physical demeanor; that is who our head coach is, and that’s why we play that way.” So Meyer will revert to his old self and try to power the ball against a Wisconsin team that will attempt to do the same behind a former acolyte of Meyer’s. The Buckeyes are happy to be a part of it. “It’s a more fun week of preparation in regard to it’s more physical,” Linsley said. “We’re pounding the ball. When we go 1s against the 2s in practice, it’s going to be run-blocking. We’re not going to sit back there and pass it. We’re going to work on our run game.” his friendship with John Walsh, J.W.’s father, who still coaches Denton Guyer. “We knew about J.W., but Dana kind of pushed the issue with him, and his relationship with Coach Walsh was really good,” Gundy said. “From there, when we saw his tape and his history of being a winner, it didn’t really take much to convince us to bring him in, but he was the one that pushed the en- velope early.” Even though he’ll be facing Holgorsen, Walsh will be focused on maintaining the proper focus on the road. “This year, every time we’ve traveled, we’ve handled it well, we’ve traveled the right way,” Walsh said. “We’ve treated it like a business trip, and with the leadership we have on the team, I think we’ll continue to travel with success.” � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
