It was reported by Faymon Roberts, village administrator, that the Environmental Protection Agency now requires that brass fittings be used as replacements on water lines to eliminate lead getting into the drinking water of residents. He noted that the village has been using the brass fittings to correct leaks as they have occurred for some time now, but as of the first year the EPA’s requirement goes into effect. Council will complete action to make the purchase before the end of the year, it was decided. Susan Baker, the village’s financial officer, reported that the village is pursuing recovery of the $300 spent on cleaning up a property on South Fourth considered a public safety issue. She said the property has an out-of -town owner who declined to do the required clean-up or pay for it, so she said she has sent the required paperwork to the auditor as a first step in recovery. Councilman Roger Manley brought up the matter of Middleport being the only community in the county without a public recycling center in the village. It was reported by Mayor Mike Gerlach that a dumpster for recycling will be placed in the village by Rumpke as part of a new program which goes into effect in January by the Tri-County Solid Waste Management District. During the meeting on the recommendation of Officer Mony Wood, Frank Stewart who has been employed as a police officer by the village since 2008, was given a promotion and a salary increase as an incentive for him to remain on the Middleport Force. His salary by unanimous vote was increased to $14.25. Also at the request of Wood, Council approved new tires for one of the cruisers. He also talked about the possibility of a video conference center in the jail which would provide video arraignments in the jail as well as instant contact with other agencies.It was noted that the system cost would be about $10,000. Outside funding is being sought for the purchase, it was reported. As for fiances received from the jail operation Wood reported that from Jan. 1 to Oct. 31 there had been $323,000 in receipts making it a highly successful operation for the village. Proceeds from the jail opera- tion pay not only for all expenses for operating the jail, but provides money to make the semiannual payments for the renovation of the building before the move from the old village hall. It was noted that village hall was recently inspected by the fire marshal and that in compliance to his recommendation, the old boiler room filled with miscellaneous items, have been cleaned out. Additional inspections will be made to assure compliance, it was reported. Council members attending were Rae Moore, Roger Manley, Penny Burge, Emerson Heighton, and Craig Wehrung.

Supreme Court will take up new health law dispute WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court agreed Tuesday to referee another dispute over President Barack Obama’s health care law, whether businesses can use religious objections to escape a requirement to cover birth control for employees. The justices said they will take up an issue that has divided the lower courts in the face of roughly 40 lawsuits from for-profit companies asking to be spared from having to cover some or all forms of contraception. The court will consider two cases. One involves Hobby Lobby Inc., an Oklahoma City-based arts and crafts chain with 13,000 fulltime employees. Hobby Lobby won in the lower courts. The other case is an appeal from Conestoga Wood Specialties Corp., a Pennsylvania company that employs 950 people in making wood cabinets. Lower courts rejected the company’s claims. The court said the cases will be combined for arguments, probably in late March. A decision should come by late June. The cases center on a provision of the health care law that requires most employers that offer health insurance to their workers to provide a range of preventive health benefits, including contraception. In both instances, the Christian families that own the companies say that insuring some forms of contraception violates their religious beliefs. The key issue is whether profitmaking corporations can assert religious beliefs under the 1993 Religious Freedom Restoration Act or the First Amendment provision guaranteeing Americans the right to believe and worship as they choose. Nearly four years ago, the justices expanded the concept of corporate “personhood,” saying in the Citizens United case that corporations have the right to participate in the political process the same way that individuals do. Hobby Lobby calls itself a “biblically founded business” and is closed on Sundays. Founded in 1972, the company now operates more than 500 stores in 41 states. The Green family, Hobby Lobby’s owners, also owns the Mardel Christian bookstore chain. The 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said corporations can be protected by the 1993 law in the same manner as individuals, and “that the contraceptive-coverage requirement substantially burdens Hobby Lobby and Mardel’s rights under” the law. In its Supreme Court brief, the administration said the appeals court ruling was wrong and, if allowed to stand would make the law “a sword used to deny employees of for-profit commercial enterprises the benefits and protections of generally applicable laws.” Conestoga Wood is owned by a Mennonite family who “object as a matter of conscience to facilitating contraception that may prevent the implantation of a humsan embryo in the womb.” The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against the company on its claims under the 1993 law and the Constitution, saying “for profit, secular corporations cannot engage in religious exercise.” The Supreme Court will have to confront several questions — can these businesses hold religious beliefs, does the health care provision significantly infringe on those beliefs and, even if the answer to the first two questions is “yes,” does the government still have a sufficient interest in guaranteeing women who work for the companies access to contraception. The companies that have sued over the mandate have objections to different forms of birth control. Conestoga Wood objects to the coverage of Plan B and Ella, two emergency contraceptives that work mostly by preventing ovulation. The FDA says on its website that Plan B “may also work by preventing fertilization of an egg … or by preventing attachment (implantation) to the womb (uterus),” while Ella also may work by changing of the lining of the uterus so as to prevent implantation. Hobby Lobby objects to those two forms of contraception as well as two types of intrauterine devices (IUDs). Its owners say they believe life begins at conception, and they oppose only birth control methods that can prevent implantation of a fertilized egg in the uterus, but not other forms of contraception. In a third case in which the court took no action Tuesday, Michiganbased Autocam Corp. doesn’t want to pay for any contraception for its employees because of its owners’ Roman Catholic beliefs. Physicians for Reproductive Health, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and other medical groups tell the court that the scientific and legal definition of a pregnancy begins with implantation, not fertilization. Contraceptives that prevent fertilization from occurring, or even prevent implantation, do not cause abortion “regardless of an individual’s personal or religious beliefs or mores,” the groups said. But another brief from the American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the Catholic Medical Association and others say in a separate filing that “it is scientifically undisputed that a new human organism begins at fertilization.” Emergency contraception that works after fertilization “can end the life of an already developing human organism,” regardless of the definition of pregnancy, they said. Senators writing new sanctions in case Iran cheats Ohio Valley Forecast ward with new sanctions when lawmakers return from their Thanksgiving break. But he took a more cautious approach Monday, saying on NPR’s “Diane Rehm Show” that Menendez and Sen. Tim Johnson, D-S.D., chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, will study the interim agreement with Iran and “hold hearings if necessary.” “If we need work on this, if we need stronger sanctions, I am sure we will do that,” Reid said. The interim agreement allows Iran to keep central elements of its nuclear program, which it says is for peaceful purposes only, while capping its uranium enrichment to levels well below the concentration of fissionable material needed for nuclear weapons. Iran also must grant U.N. inspectors greater access to nuclear sites, neutralize higher-enriched uranium stockpiles and halt work on a planned heavy water reactor near Arak. In exchange, Iran receives about $7 billion in relief over the next six months from international sanctions that have crippled its economy. More than half of that amount comes from money now in frozen accounts to which the Iranians will be given access. Iran also will be allowed to restart limited sales of petrochemicals and other products. Having voted new sanctions against Iran four months ago, the House is waiting for the Senate to act.

New sanctions are needed “so that Iran will face immediate consequences should it renege on its commitments or refuse to negotiate an acceptable final agreement,” the group said. Imposing stiffer economic penalties against Iran enjoys wide support in Congress. President Barack Obama has pleaded personally with lawmakers to give him more time and room for diplomatic efforts. The interim agreement promises no new penalties against Iran while it is in effect. Administration officials say new pressure from Congress now could prompt the Iranians to walk away from the deal and cause unrest between the U.S. and its negotiating partners in the so-called P5+1 — Britain, China, France, Germany and Russia. “We need to give diplomacy a chance to work,” Tony Blinken, Obama’s deputy national security adviser, said Monday on MSNBC. “New sanctions now, on top of the ones that are already in existence and will continue to be implemented, we fear would be taken as a sign of bad faith, not just by the Iranians but, indeed, by our partners in the P5+1 and other countries around the world whose cooperation we require to implement the sanctions and make them effective.” Blinken said sanctions can be turned up “on a dime” six months from now if no comprehensive agreement is reached in the interim. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., has yet to determine how he’ll react to the agreement, Democratic aides said. Reid said last week that the Senate would move for- x t e n d e d Hours ½ Carat Solitaires Starting @ $999 The arat Patch Diamonds- N- Gold 740-446-3484 418 Silver Bridge Plaza Gallipolis, OH 60466367 WASHINGTON (AP) — Leading Democratic and Republican senators are crafting legislation to reinstate the full force of sanctions and impose new ones if Iran doesn’t make good on its pledge to roll back its nuclear program, brushing aside the Obama administration’s fears about upending its diplomatic momentum. Sens. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., and Mark Kirk, RIll., hope to have the bill ready for other lawmakers to consider when the Senate returns Dec. 9 from its two-week recess, according to legislative aides. Many in Congress are skeptical, if not outright hostile, to the deal reached by Iran and world powers over the weekend in Geneva. The Kirk-Menendez measure would require the administration to certify every 30 days that Iran is adhering to the terms of the six-month interim agreement and that it hasn’t been involved in any act of terrorism against the United States. Without that certification, sanctions worth more than $1 billion a month would be re-imposed and new sanctions would be added. The new measures would include bans on investing in Iran’s engineering, mining and construction industries and a global boycott of Iranian oil by 2015. Foreign companies and banks violating the sanctions would be barred from doing business in the United States. The senators hope to send the bill to the White House before the end of the year, said the aides, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to speak by name on the matter. “I do not believe we should further reduce our sanctions, nor abstain from preparations to impose new sanctions,” Menendez, the chairman of the Senate Foreign M A L L Business Saturday �The Daily Sentinel OPINION Page 4 Wednesday, November 27, 2013 Iran: It’s not about 10 more years in Afghanistan nuclear weapons David Swanson Sheldon Richman If you want to understand the U.S.-Iran controversy, know this: It is not about nuclear weapons. You’re thinking: Of course it’s about nuclear weapons. Everyone says so. Well, not everyone does. But it isn’t a numbers game. As William O. Beeman points out in the Huffington Post, There is a strange irony in President Obama’s announcement of the temporary agreement. He mentioned the term “nuclear weapon” multiple times in his announcement, implying that Iran was on a path to develop such a weapon. One wonders if he actually believes this or if his repeated implied accusation was a rhetorical device designed to placate his hardline critics. The president must know by this time that there is no evidence that Iran has or ever had a nuclear weapons program. Every relevant intelligence agency in the world has verified this fact for more than a decade. Two U.S. National Intelligence Estimates that were made public in 2007 and 2011 underscored this. The International Atomic Energy Agency has also consistently asserted that Iran has not diverted any nuclear material for any military purpose. Even Israeli intelligence analysts agree that Iran is “not a danger” to Israel. Ironically, when critics of the interim agreement say Iran gave up little, they are right. “By yielding to the P5+1 demands, in essence Iran has allowed itself to be persuaded to stop temporarily doing what it never intended to do — make a nuclear weapon,” Beeman writes. “The United States and its allies … made the improbable leap that having enriched uranium would immediately lead to a nuclear weapon. This is an immense mistake — so large that one must suspect that it is essentially hyped for public consumption.” In return for agreeing to stop doing what it had no intention of doing, Iran will get the slightest relief from the economic sanctions that inflict so much suffering on the people. There’s another irony. The reactionaries on all sides – including in the U.S. Congress – oppose rapprochement between Iran and the United States for some of the same reasons. Look at the leading opponents of the agreement: Israel and Saudi Arabia. They are among the U.S. government’s closest allies in the Middle East. For overlapping reasons, both would hate to see the 34-year-old cold war between the United States and Iran come to an end. Saudi Arabia, which is well-equipped militarily by the United States, is an Arab Sunni Muslim kingdom. Iran is the large, influential Persian state dominated by the other side in the Islamic schism: Shiism. (What Iran calls the Persian Gulf, Arabs call the Arabian Gulf.) Iran was a U.S. client-state until 1979, when the Islamic Revolution overthrew the repressive shah, whom the U.S. government had restored to power after ousting a democratic regime in 1953. Saudi Arabia, which enjoys protection under America’s nuclear umbrella, does not want to see Iran back in the good graces of the United States, The Daily Sentinel Reader Services Correction Policy Our main concern in all stories is to be accurate.

Israel, the world’s largest recipient of U.S. military armaments, a nuclear power, and thus the most potent country in the region, has used its might to subjugate the Palestinians, systematically steal their land, and intimidate its neighbors, for example, by periodically invading Lebanon. Its leadership needs to manufacture enemies to distract the world from its inhumane policies, which the U.S. government, pushed by Israel’s lobby, enables. Thus the Iranians, who have made repeated peace overtures, are portrayed as an “existential threat,” which is absurd: Even if one were to make all the fantastic assumptions required to see Iran with a nuclear weapon, what good would it be against Israel, which has hundreds of nukes, some of them on invulnerable submarines? Yoel Guzansky, a former member of Israel’s National Security Council, revealed much when he condemned the interim agreement as giving “Iran … a signature that it’s a legitimate country.” How hypocritical. The Iranian people, which includes a large, educated middle class, would welcome friendship with America. Both they and the American people would prosper from trade, tourism, and other personal contact. As a bonus, such friendship would inevitably weaken Iran’s theocracy – which is why the hardliners on all sides are determined to prevent it. Sheldon Richman is vice president and editor at The Future of Freedom Foundation in Fairfax, Va. (www.fff. org). When Barack Obama became president, there were 32,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan. He escalated to over 100,000 troops, plus contractors. Now there are 47,000 troops these five years later. Measured in financial cost, or death and destruction, Afghanistan is more President Obama’s war than President Bush’s. Now the White House is trying to keep troops in Afghanistan until “2024 and beyond.” Afghan President Hamid Karzai is refusing to sign the deal. Here is his list of concerns. He’d like the U.S. to stop killing civilians and stop kicking in people’s doors at night. He’d like the U.S. to engage in peace negotiations. He’d like innocent Afghan prisoners freed from Guantanamo. And he’d like the U.S. not to sabotage the April 2014 Afghan elections. Whatever we think of Karzai’s legacy — my own appraisal is unprintable — these are perfectly reasonable demands. Iran and Pakistan oppose keeping nine major U.S. military bases in Afghanistan, some of them on the borders of their nations, until the end of time. U.S. officials threaten war on Iran with great regularity, the new agreement notwithstanding. U.S. missiles already hit Pakistan in a steady stream. These two nations’ concerns seem as reasonable as Karzai’s. The U.S. public has been telling pollsters we want all U.S. troops out of Afghanistan “as soon as possible” for years and years. We’re spending $10 million per hour making ourselves less safe and more hated. The chief cause of death for U.S. troops in this mad operation is suicide. When the U.S. troops left Iraq, it remained a living hell, as Libya is now too. But the disaster that Iraq is does not approach what it was during the occupation. Much less has Iraq grown dramatically worse post-occupation, as we were warned for years by those advocating continued warfare. Humanitarian aid to Afghanistan — or to the entire world, for that matter, including our own country — would cost a fraction of what we spend on wars and war preparations, and would make us the most beloved nation on earth. I bet we’d favor that course if asked. We were asked on Syria, and we told pollsters we favored aid, not missiles. Obama’s gatekeeper now point man on health care Jim Kuhnhenn The Associated Press WASHINGTON — White House chief of staff Denis McDonough was ready to vent. “I’ve had too much humble pie,” he fumed, striding into a top aide’s West Wing office. “That was the last slice. I’m full.” McDonough had just finished another hand-holding meeting with health care advocates anxious over the disastrous rollout of the health care law. For weeks, President Barack Obama and White House officials had been apologizing for and promising fixes to a faulty website and an unmet promise to insurance holders that they could keep their policies. McDonough’s message: It was time to change tac- 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.

Letters should be in good taste, addressing issues, not personalities. “Thank You” letters will not be accepted for publication. tics, quit lamenting the problems and start emphasizing the benefits of the health care overhaul. When Obama assembled his second-term team last January, his new chief of staff promptly put his energetic stamp on things. He increased White House outreach to lawmakers, worked to rebuild relations with the Cabinet and stepped up contacts with business leaders. Ten months later, McDonough is trying to manage one of the roughest patches in Obama’s presidency as the White House labors to explain how the president got blindsided by the problematic enrollment launch of his health care law. As the president’s gatekeeper, McDonough is at the center of the maelstrom, the man charged with deciding what the president needs to know and when. With his periodic treks to the Capitol and his credentials as a former Senate staffer, McDonough has built a deep reserve of good will among lawmakers from both parties. But the botched health care rollout has angered many Democrats who wonder why the White House did not see the trouble coming. “This is so important to the president, this is his signature issue,” said Rep. Elijah Cummings, the top Democrat on the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. “Not only is it his signature issue, it is the signature issue for the Republicans on the negative side. That’s a hell of a combination. The Daily Sentinel Ohio Valley Newspapers 111 Court Street Pomeroy, Ohio Phone (740) 992-2156 Fax (740) 992-2157 www.mydailysentinel.com Sammy M.

The storm sprung out of the West and has been blamed for at least 11 deaths, half of them in Texas. It limped across Arkansas with a smattering of snow, sleet and freezing rain that didn’t meet expectations. “It’s just really cold. We had drizzle but no snow,” said Courtney O’NealWalden, an owner of the Dairyette diner on U.S. 270 in Mount Ida, Ark. “You can see (ice) on the power lines but the roads are fine.” She said ominous warnings of a wintery storm kept most people inside — although schools remained open — and few stopped by the diner for Monday’s $5.99 special of popcorn shrimp, fries and a medium drink. But the system packed plenty of punch as it moved eastward. John Robinson, the warning coordination meteorologist at the National Weather Service in North Little Rock, said winter storm warnings were issued for parts of the eastern half of the United States through Wednesday afternoon. Some of the country’s busiest airports — New York, Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Boston and Charlotte, N.C. — could see big delays at one of the peak travel times of the year. This holiday will likely see the most air travelers since 2007, according to Airlines for America, the industry’s trade and lobbying group, with the busiest day being Sunday, an estimated 2.56 million passengers. Wednesday is expected to be the second-busiest with 2.42 million passengers. Ninety percent of travelers this week will drive, according to AAA, and an estimated 38.9 million people — 1.6 percent fewer than last year — are expected to drive 50 miles or more from their home. In New Jersey, officials advised travelers to check with their airlines and reduce speed on highways as a winter weather advisory was set to take effect shortly before midday across the state’s northwest areas. Meanwhile, forecasters were predicting 5 to 8 inches of snow in Buffalo, more in the northern Adirondacks, and a winter storm watch was posted for central New York state with heavy rain expected in parts of the Hudson Valley. In the nation’s capital, federal agencies opened Tuesday though the National Weather Service issued a winter weather advisory for the northern and western suburbs of Washington, D.C., and Baltimore, amid forecasts of a light mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain that could be topped off by heavy rain. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management, which sets leave policies for 300,000 federal workers in Washington, said that while government was open Tuesday, employees could take unscheduled leave or unscheduled telework. Penny Lane: Gitmo’s other secret CIA facility WASHINGTON (AP) — A few hundred yards from the administrative offices of the Guantanamo Bay prison, hidden behind a ridge covered in thick scrub and cactus, sits a closely held secret. A dirt road winds its way to a clearing where eight small cottages sit in two rows of four. They have long been abandoned. The special detachment of Marines that once provided security is gone. But in the early years after 9/11, these cottages were part of a covert CIA program. Its secrecy has outlasted black prisons, waterboarding and rendition. In these buildings, CIA officers turned terrorists into double agents and sent them home. It was a risky gamble. If it worked, their agents might help the CIA find terrorist leaders to kill with drones. But officials knew there was a chance that some prisoners might quickly spurn their deal and kill Americans. For the CIA, that was an acceptable risk in a dangerous business. For the American public, which was never told, it was one of the many secret trade-offs the government made on its behalf. At the same time the government used the threat of terrorism to justify imprisoning people indefinitely, it was releasing dangerous people from prison to work for the CIA. Nearly a dozen current and former U.S officials described aspects of the program to The Associated Press. All spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss the secret program, even though it ended in about 2006. The program and the handful of men who passed through these cottages had various official CIA codenames. But those who were aware of the cluster of cottages knew it best by its sobriquet: Penny Lane. It was a nod to the classic Beatles song and a riff on the CIA’s other secret facility at Guantanamo Bay, a prison known as Strawberry Fields. Some of the men who passed through Penny Lane helped the CIA find and kill many top al-Qaida operatives, current and former U.S. officials said. Others stopped providing useful information and the CIA lost touch with them. When prisoners began streaming into Guantanamo Bay in January 2002, the CIA recognized it as an unprecedented opportunity to identify sources. That year, 632 detainees arrived at the island. The following year 117 more arrived. “Of course that would be an objective,” said Emile Nakhleh, a former top CIA analyst who spent time in 2002 assessing detainees but who did not discuss Penny Lane. “It’s the job of intelligence to recruit sources.” By early 2003, Penny Lane was open for business. Candidates were ushered from the confines of prison to Penny Lane’s relative hominess, officials said. The cottages had private kitchens, showers and televisions. Each had a small patio. Some prisoners asked for and received pornography. One official said the biggest luxury in each cottage was the bed, not a militaryissued cot but a real bed with a mattress. The cottages were designed to feel more like hotel rooms than prison cells, and some CIA officials jokingly referred to them collectively as the Marriott. Current and former officials said dozens of prisoners were evaluated but only a handful, from varying countries, were turned into spies who signed agreements to spy for the CIA. Course From Page 1 Police Department was presented by Brian Hendrickson, DVM, of the Riverbend Animal Clinic. According to Hendrickson, offering the class to local K9 handlers, as well as local emergency medical service personnel, is critical as a means to help prevent the loss of any K9 officers in the field. “We had the police dog a few years ago get stabbed, and, from that time on, and, even before that, we worked with the handlers and, we’ve even done more since, because these dogs have no fear of the situation. They don’t know that they could get hurt and they just do it because they are told to do it and it’s their job. They put themselves in harm’s wary just as their handlers do everyday,” Hendrickson said. “These guys love their dogs and we do too, and, so, if we can make a difference at all in any situation, then it’s worth my time to help these guys save one of these dogs because they are critical. They find the drugs, they help the cops all the time.” Hendrickson reported that the class was basically a first aid class teaching EMS personnel and the K9 handlers what they can do at the scene in the event that a K9 officer is injured — aid that could be used to stabilize the dog until it can be transported to a veterinarian. “This is what to do before they can get to a veterinary facility,” Hendrickson said. “If I can teach them one thing that they can do that reduces the chances of that dog dying, then it will help.” Hendrickson further reported that, as trained emergency medical responders, those in attendance for Saturday’s class already have the background knowledge needed to provide first aid to K9 officers. “A lot of the medicine is the same. A person in shock, a gun shot person, is the same as gun shot dog, but you have to know where the veins are to hit them and you have to know what the differences are and that’s what we were trying to push here,” Hendrickson said. “There is nothing really that they need to carry different, they just need to know the differences when it comes to that critical moment.” Following the program, Champlin, on behalf of his fellow K9 handlers, spoke of the importance in organizing the class to prepare for any future emergency situations involving their dogs. “Our dogs are placed in situations on a common, day-to-day basis where they can incur mass trauma or drug overdoses or heat stroke or any type of traumatic event like that,” Champlin said. “It’s important, number one, for us to know how to do it. Number two, the reason that we pulled the EMS into this realm is because they are more familiar with anatomy, not just of a person, but of a dog, and how do things intravenously, and things of that nature, that we don’t know how to do. So, we want to be able to partner with them, so, in light of a traumatic event, they can use their skills to prolong our dog’s life or help us stabilize them in a fashion that we wouldn’t know the proper steps to do.” In attendance on Saturday were members of the Gallia County EMS, Mason County Community Emergency Response Team (CERT), Mason County EMS, Jackson County EMA, Ohio Special Response Team units, Portsmouth Ambulance, Bluffington EMS and Meigs County EMS.

The River Valley girls basketball team received 47 points from its frontcourt and used a 25-17 surge through the middle quarters Monday night to secure a 55-48 victory over visiting Federal Hocking in a season opening non-conference matchup in Gallia County. The host Lady Raiders (1-0) battled FHHS to a 15-all tie after eight minutes of play, but RVHS countered with a 16-10 charge in the second frame to claim a 31-25 edge at the intermission. River Valley kept some of that momentum going into the second half, as the hosts made a small 9-7 run to extend their lead out to 40-32 headed into the finale. The Lady Lancers (0-2) closed regulation with a slim 16-15 run, but never came closer than two possessions down the stretch — allowing the Lady Raiders to hand first-year coach Sarah Evans-Moore her first varsity win with the Silver and Black. River Valley had an even balance in the scoring department, as seven players scored in the triumph — with six of the seven scorers chipping in at least one point in each half. RVHS also received five or more points from four different players, compared to just three Lady Lancers with at least five markers. Leia Moore led the victors with a game-high 22 points, which included both of River Valley’s trifectas on the night. Rachael Smith was next with 10 points, followed by Shelby Brown with nine markers and Chelsea Copley with five points. Courtney Smith, Tiana Qualls and MiKayla Pope also chipped in three points apiece to the winning cause. RVHS finished the night 15-of-33 at the free throw line for 45 percent, which included a 5-of-13 effort in the fourth quarter. Destiny Tabler paced Federal Hocking with 16 points, followed by Ashton Cale with 14 points and Megan Thompson with eight markers. FHHS was 11-of-20 at the charity stripe for 55 percent. Cale had all three trifectas for Fed Hock in the setback. Kyle Robertson | Columbus Dispatch | MCT photo Ohio State Buckeyes head coach Urban Meyer celebrates the 17-16 win over Michigan State Spartans at Spartan Stadium in East Lansing, Michigan, Saturday, Sept. 29, 2012. Oh no! Meyer slips up, says the word ‘Michigan’ COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio State coach Urban Meyer made a major blunder on Monday. No, he didn’t make a brash prediction or mock an opponent. In the eyes of many, however, this might have been worse. He said the word “Michigan.” Around these parts, Buckeyes coaches, fans and players refer to their biggest rival as “That Team Up North” or maybe “That School Up North,” but almost never by the university’s actual name. “Did I really?” Meyer said, looking stricken, after being told of his faux pas. “Wow. I apologize.” That might sound petty to people not acquainted with the bitter rivalry known as “The Game,” but the pettiness works both ways. Michigan coach Brady Hoke calls the final opponent on his schedule “Ohio” — something that drives Buckeyes’ fans crazy. “We are excited (about playing) Ohio,” Hoke said Monday. “It’s such a great rivalry that we’re fortunate to be able to play in and coach in. This is a week that gets everybody involved. Everybody has an opinion, which is good for The Game because it’s talked about.” Beyond Meyer’s little slip-up, just about everything followed form as the Buckeyes spoke publicly for the final time before going deep into their practice facility/war room to scheme and dream for Saturday’s big game at The Big House in Ann Arbor, Mich. The third-ranked Buckeyes (11-0, 7-0 Big Ten) are favored by 12½ points, largely because they’re riding a school-record 23-game winning streak. In addition, that sizable favorite’s role is also because the Wolverines (7-4, 3-4) have struggled lately, losing four of their last six games. Jack Mewhort, one of Ohio State’s captains and a starter on the offensive line, grew up in Toledo, almost in the middle both geographically and in terms of partisanship, between the two rivals. He disregarded Michigan’s recent hard times heading into the 110th playing of The Game. “That makes no difference because of the tradition and history that go into this rivalry,” he said. “It’s al- ways a tough, smash-mouth game. We’re prepared to get their best shot, and they’re going to get ours, too. The records aren’t really a big deal this week.” One thing that might be a factor is that The Game doesn’t stand alone at the end of the regular season for the Buckeyes this year. For the first time ever, they’ll be playing in the Big Ten championship game a week later against No. 11 Michigan State. Meyer, the coach at Florida 2005-2010, has encountered a similar situation three times before. In 2006, ‘08 and ‘09, his Gators squared off with rival Florida State in their last regularly scheduled game and then had to play in the Southeastern Conference title game a week later. They beat the Seminoles in all three, winning two SEC championship games. “I don’t want to say it’s awful, but you talk about blowing out your staff and players,” he said. “Our focus is on this one, but we know what’s coming. You have to be so disciplined in the way you practice, and I’m going to warn our coaches and myself about sleep and taking care of yourself, because these next two weeks are going to be brutal.” The players don’t sound as if they’ll have the slightest problem concentrating on a team that many native Ohioans are born and bred to despise. “There is a dislike for that team up north,” defensive lineman Michael Bennett, who hails from suburban Dayton, Ohio. “I think every guy gets a little bit of motivation from that and coach Meyer gets extra motivation from that. It filters down to us.” The Buckeyes have been on a roll: the lengthy winning streak, taking a division title, locking up a berth in the conference title game and remaining in the thick of the national championship picture at No. 3 in the BCS rankings. But all of that doesn’t mean a whole lot if they can’t win the game that’s most important to their fans. “This is the whole season, really,” safety C.J. Barnett said. “Everything is out the window, records, everything we’ve done, haven’t done — it’s all about this week.” Photos by Alex Hawley | OVP Sports Gallia Academy junior Kendra Barnes (center) drives between SGHS defenders Mikayla Poling (left) and Alicia Hornsby (right) during the Blue Angels 55-53 overtime victory, Monday night in Centenary. Blue Angels edge South Gallia in overtime Alex Hawley ahawley@civitasmedia.com CENTENARY, Ohio — It took four extra minutes but the Blue Angels started the year with a win. The Gallia Academy girls basketball team needed overtime but eventually took the 55-53 non-conference decision over guest South Gallia, Monday night. The Lady Rebels (1-1) wasted little time, outscoring GAHS (1-0) 15-9 in the opening stanza to gain the early advantage. Gallia Academy answered in the second quarter and pulled within four points, 24-20, at halftime. After the intermission the offensive pace slowed down, as each team scored just six points in the third quarter. Both offenses revved up the pace in the fourth quarter however and Gallia Academy fought back to tie the game at 51 as regulation expired. The Blue Angel defense came up big in overtime, holding SGHS to just two points en route to a 55-53 win. Micah Curfman led the Blue Angels with 19 points, including a pair of three pointers. Kendra Barnes marked 15 points, including a 13-of-16 performance form the charity stripe. Jalea Caldwell marked seven points, while Kassie Shriver and Jordan Walker each had six and Carly Shriver marked two. SGHS senior Rachel Johnson led all scorers with 31 points, including 19 after halftime. Sara Bailey marked six points, Mikayla Poling had five, while Lesley Small and Katie Bostic each had four points. Alicia Hornsby rounded out the Lady Rebels’ scoring with three points in the game. Walker led all rebounders with 11 boards for GAHS, while Caldwell had nine and Curfman had eight. Barnes led the defense with seven steals, followed by Caldwell with five. Curfman and Kassie Shriver each had three steals in the triumph. Barnes also led the Blue Angels with two assists, followed by Curfman and Walker with one each. Caitlyn VansCoy had 10 rebounds to pace SGHS, followed by Poling with eight and Johnson with six. Poling’s three steals led the Lady Rebels, followed by Bailey with two and Lexi Williamson with one. Lesley Small finished with a game-high seven assists, followed by Poling with four and Bailey with three.

For more information, visit www. naia.org Browns agree to terms with QB Tanney CLEVELAND (AP) — Alex Tanney can perform trick shots with a football. The Browns don’t need him to do anything more fancy than learn their plays. At least, for now. With starter Jason Campbell out with a concussion, the Browns agreed to contract terms with Tanney on Tuesday, bringing him in to back up Brandon Weeden, who is expected to start on Sunday against Jacksonville. Tanney has spent this season on Dallas’ practice squad. The second-year pro set several Division III records while at Monmouth College (Ill.), and he’s also a YouTube sensation with a video in which he throws a football over scoreboards, into a moving pickup truck, from 40 yards from his knees to hit a goal post’s crossbar, and into basketball hoops from long range. The Browns had one quarterback on their roster and needed some insurance in case Weeden, who has twice lost his job and is being booed by Browns fans, gets hurt or struggles. Tanney completed 40 of 73 passes for 423 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions in the exhibition season for the Cowboys. He signed as an undrafted free agent with Kansas City last year, but spent the season on injured reserve with a finger injury. At Monmouth, he set Division III career marks with 14,249 yards passing and 157 TDs. On Monday, Browns coach Rob Chudzinski said Campbell is following the NFL’s protocol for head injuries after he was hurt in Sunday’s home loss to Pittsburgh. Campbell was struck in the head by cornerback William Gay on a blitz and the Browns QB banged his head on the frozen turf when he fell. Campbell has not been formally ruled out, but Chudzinski said “chances are” Weeden will start. Weeden replaced Campbell and completed 13 of 30 passes for 209 yards with one interception — returned for a TD — and one score. The 30-yearold was targeted by some Browns fans, who booed him as he took the field and after every incompletion. Browns linebacker Paul Kruger said the team has not lost confidence in Weeden, and empathizes with his situation. “That’s the one position on the field that matters more than anything. You’ve got 53 other guys depend- ing on you and you really can’t make a mistake,” he said. “You’ve got to be a special guy. That’s a tough position. That’s why they get paid the way they do, they’re protected the way they are. There’s a reason for those things and it’s because those guys can change the game for the better or the worse. “So I’ve got Brandon’s back. He’s a good player. He’s out here working hard every day. He’s got a strong arm. He’s smart. It’s a really hard position, and there’s only a few guys in the league who are exceptional at it.” NOTES: The Browns were awarded TE Andre Smith on waivers from the Dallas Cowboys and waived OL Patrick Lewis and WR Brian Tyms. In his second NFL season, Smith appeared in three games with the Cowboys. Seahawks remain on top as unanimous choice Barry Wilner The Associated Press The Seattle Seahawks were a unanimous choice Tuesday for the top spot in the AP Pro32 power rankings, and their opponent on Monday night, New Orleans, came in second. Seattle remained first in the voting by a 12-member panel that regularly covers the league, but improved from seven first-place votes to sweeping all of them. The Seahawks did so even though they were idle last week. They host the Saints in prime time this week, with New Orleans jumping from fourth to second place. Seattle earned 384 points in the voting, and New Orleans got 368. “The Monday night matchup against the Saints is so tasty, it doesn’t need any extra hype,” said Ira Kaufman of the Tampa Tribune. “Many QBs have been psyched out playing in noisy Seattle. Drew Brees isn’t on the list.” There’s also a new team at the bottom of the rankings, Houston. The Texans lost to Jacksonville last Sunday, which drops them to 32nd and moves the Jaguars out of the cellar for the first time this season to 30th overall. “After 15 weeks of the 2012 season, the Texans were 12-2 and holding down the top seed in the AFC playoff bracket,” noted Rich Gosselin of the Dallas Morning News. “Since that time, including playoffs, they have won only three of their next 12 games. They own the worst record in the AFC at 2-9.” Houston began the year ranked seventh, so its fall hasn’t been the steepest. Atlanta (also 2-9) was one successful play away from winning the NFC championship last season. The Falcons now rank 31st after beginning the year as the No. 3 team in the AP Pro32. “Injury-riddled and a bad-looking team at this point,” Pat Kirwan of CBS Sports and SiriusXM Satellite Radio said. “I hope Matt Ryan stays healthy to the end. The Falcons will regroup in 2014.” Back at the top of the power rankings through Week 12, Denver and New England tied for third with 349 points. Seems appropriate because they went into overtime on Sunday night before the Patriots won 34-31. “Tough loss to the Patriots, but the silver lining is that they found themselves a running game,” said Herm Edwards of ESPN. “The Brady-Gronk Show is back and looking for first-round bye,” added John Czarnecki of Fox Sports. Rounding out the top 10 were Carolina, Kansas City, San Francisco, Cincinnati, Arizona and Indianapolis. The biggest moves up the rankings were made by San Diego, from a tie for 22nd to a tie for 16th, and Arizona, from 13th to ninth. “Time to take this team seriously, especially after the way they completely dismantled the Colts in a 40-11 rout at home,” Bob Glauber of Newsday said of the Cardinals. “Philip Rivers has at least 390 yards passing in four games this season, tying Dan Marino and Joe Montana for the most such games in a single season,” Charean Williams of the Fort Worth Star Telegram said. Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP—NFL Two arrested in EMU football player’s shooting death YPSILANTI, Mich. (AP) — Police have arrested two people in the fatal shooting of Eastern Michigan University football player at an off-campus apartment complex, the Ypsilanti school announced Monday. One suspect was arraigned Sunday and the other was being arraigned Monday in the slaying of Demarius Reed, the university said on its website. The Ypsilanti Police Department planned to release more information following the second arraignment. The school didn’t identify the suspects, but court records obtained by MLive.com (http://bit. ly/18BZJZI) show that two 20-year-old Detroit men are charged with open counts of murder. Ed J. Thomas and Kristopher K. Pratt also face armed robbery and other charges, it said. Thomas was in the Washtenaw County jail, and Pratt was jailed in neighboring Wayne County, MLive.com reported. It said Pratt also faces charges on accusations that he stole a man’s Air Jordan shoes, then fired a shot at him. The Associated Press left a phone message Monday with the Washtenaw County prosecutor’s office seeking information on the charges, court proceedings and the suspects’ legal representation. Reed was a 20-year-old communications major from Chicago and played six games this season, catching 15 passes for 185 yards. He starred as a receiver at Chicago’s Simeon Career Academy. He was fatally shot multiple times Oct. 18 at an off-campus apartment building in Ypsilanti in what police have said was a possible robbery. University officials have said that they are hiring four more full-time police officers to support offcampus patrols. Mizzou AD Alden ejects Antlers student fan group ST. LOUIS (AP) — In some quarters of college basketball fandom, derisive chants directed toward opponents are considered high art. Look no further than the Cameron Crazies, the famed student section at Duke University’s Cameron Indoor Stadium. The less heralded Antlers from the University of Missouri are also adept at what their student leader, known as the Grand Poobah, called “getting into the heads” of opposing players. But after a second straight ejection from Mizzou Arena — this time midgame Monday night — school officials say the unsanctioned group has crossed the line of good taste, trafficking not in animated school spirit but something that amounts to hate speech. “This is actually laughable to me, but let me just say this …. We have high expectations for our students and our staff at the University of Missouri,” Athletic Director Mike Alden told reporters Monday after Missouri’s 78-64 win over IUPUI. “Our core values are respect, responsibility, discovery and excellence, and it’s critically important that we represent those values every day in everything we do. “We just want to make sure that folks are representing the institution with class,” he added. Many fans booed loudly as the ousted students departed barely five minutes into the second half, just two days after the group was also escorted out of the arena by campus police before tipoff against Gardner-Webb. Missouri forward Tony Criswell high-fived several of The Antlers. Fans who sent angry emails to Alden were provided with a list of “observations” that The Antlers had said at games, including a halfdozen sexually suggestive chants, as well as jokes about abortion, masturbation, sexually transmitted diseases, animal cruelty and the deadly typhoon in the Philippines. During an opponent’s free throw attempt in the season opener against Southeastern Louisiana, The Antlers shouted, “Raise your hand if you thought Hurricane Katrina was a good thing.” In that same game, the group hollered “Just take him back out and throw him in a Dumpster” as an otherwise-silent arena watched an injured player get carried off the court. The Antlers have been at Mizzou basketball games 1976, but the ZouCrew is the official school-sanctioned student cheering section. Grand Poobah Emmett DeLaney, a junior business major from Festus, met last week with university leaders, including the vice chancellor for student affairs and the student government president. DeLaney said he acknowledged in the meeting that his 30-member, allmale group had gone too far. “Do we really want to keep going down this direction, or are we funnier, more smart and creative guys?” he told The Associated Press in a Tuesday interview. “It’s time to turn over a new leaf.” ing engineering studies, design, construction administration and construction observation; availability of staff; the CLASSIFIEDS EMPLOYMENT Drivers & Delivery Drivers: Don't get hypnotized by the highway, come to a place where there's a higher standard!

(AP) — The Baltimore Ravens have spent much of the season in bounce-back mode. Now they’ve finally reached a point where the objective is to sustain their momentum. With its refreshingly lopsided victory over the New York Jets on Sunday, Baltimore (5-6) climbed into a six-way tie for the second wild-card slot in the AFC and improved to 10-1 in November home games under coach John Harbaugh. Given their uneven play this season — they lost four of five before beating the Jets 19-3 — the Ravens would happily take a sixth straight trip to the postseason as the final wild-card team. But Baltimore still has an outside shot at winning the AFC North, trailing Cincinnati by two games with a victory over the Bengals in hand. The teams meet in the final week of the season. “We understand where we’re at. We know what everybody’s record is,” coach John Harbaugh said Monday. “But we also know we have to win. None of that matters unless we continue to win. We’ve got to win as many games as we can, and we’ll be hopeful that’s enough to get us in. “We haven’t given up the division championship yet, either. But we’ve got to win games. We have to win the next one on our schedule.” That would be a Thanksgiving night AFC North clash against the Pittsburgh Steelers (5-6), who have won three straight and defeated Baltimore earlier this season. With a victory, the Ravens can climb back to .500, create some separation between themselves and Pittsburgh, register their eighth straight home victory in November and celebrate their first win- ning streak since defeating Cleveland and Houston in September. First, Baltimore has to cope with a short week of practice. Instead of getting a day off Monday, the team had a late afternoon session and will work again Tuesday. “Physically, we have to get back. The turnaround is quick,” Harbaugh said. “We were just in a very physical game, and we’ve got to get our guys back to play another physical game. The other challenge is to be mentally prepared.” The Ravens can only hope to perform as well as they did against the Jets. “We’ve played this hard all year,” linebacker Elvis Dumervil said after the game. “It’s nice to see that it’s starting to work out for us now.” The schedule appears favorable, too. The Jets game was the first of three straight at home for the Ravens, who are 4-1 at M&T Bank Stadium and 1-5 on the road. Baltimore has allowed only three touchdowns at home this season while outscoring the opposition 100-54. Being in a must-win position is nothing new for the Ravens, who lost three in a row late last season before defeating the New York Giants at home. That clinched the AFC North and put Baltimore on the road to the Super Bowl. This season has been a comparative struggle, but the Ravens have managed to remain a part of the playoff picture. “Whether we were at the top of the wild card or the top of the division, we’ve always been in a pretty tight race where it’s come down to the last game of the season and having to win a football game,” quarterback Joe Flacco said. “We’ve been in tight races before, and we’re really in no Doug Kapustin | MCT different of a situation this year right now.

Wolves announce Derrick Williams trade to Kings MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Timberwolves’ five starters have logged more minutes than any other starting group in the NBA this year, in part because former No. 2 overall draft pick Derrick Williams couldn’t gain the trust of coach Rick Adelman. Williams is gone. New Wolves President Flip Saunders traded the former No. 2 overall pick to the Sacramento Kings for Luc Mbah a Moute in a deal that was completed on Tuesday morning. “Luc is known as one of the premier defensive players in the league with an ability to guard multiple positions,” Saunders said in a statement issued by the team. “He adds a lot of energy, grit and a high basketball IQ to our team. We thank Derrick for his contributions to our organization and wish him well in Sacramento.” Williams was the highest draft pick in franchise history when the Wolves grabbed him in 2011. But his style of play didn’t mesh with Adelman’s system, and the impasse reached a breaking point early this season. Williams missed one game because of back spasms and did not play in four other games as Adelman elected to go with Robbie Hummel and Dante Cunningham with the second unit instead. Adelman wanted to see more energy from Williams on both ends of court. But Williams often said that he had difficulty getting into the flow of the game with such sporadic minutes. He bounced between small forward and power forward in two-plus years with the Wolves, averaging 10.1 points and 4.9 rebounds per game. The Kings are hoping Williams can bring some offensive punch to a team that could use some more of it in the frontcourt alongside DeMarcus Cousins. The Kings have been searching for an answer at power forward after Carl Landry went out with a torn hip flexor in the preseason. They’ve used Jason Thompson and Patrick Patterson to varying degrees of success and see Williams as a player who may just need a change of scenery to realize his potential. Williams is more com- fortable playing the power forward, which he showed when filling in for the injured Kevin Love last season. But with Love back healthy this year, and Cunningham earning Adelman’s trust as a veteran off the bench, there was little room for the 22-year-old. Williams played less than 15 minutes per game this season, much of it in garbage time during blowouts. The move will help the Wolves balance their roster a little bit, relieving a glut at power forward while addressing a weakness at small forward. The 6-foot-8 Mbah a Moute played with Love in college at UCLA and brings some toughness and defensive presence that the Wolves are sorely lacking. With Chase Budinger still not close to playing while he recovers from knee surgery, the Wolves needed another body to help take some of the pressure off of Corey Brewer as the team’s primary perimeter defender. Adelman has told others in the organization that he likes Mbah a Moute’s game, an important endorsement if the Wolves were going to cut ties with Williams. Mbah a Moute’s size will help the Wolves better matchup with some of the toughest covers in the West, including Oklahoma City’s Kevin Durant, the Clippers’ Blake Griffin and Dirk Nowitzki from Dallas. Maddux, Glavine, Thomas on Hall of Fame ballot NEW YORK (AP) — Four-time Cy Young Award winner Greg Maddux, twotime winner Tom Glavine and two-time AL MVP Frank Thomas are among 19 newcomers on this year’s Hall of Fame ballot, joining steroid-tainted holdovers Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa. Mike Mussina, Hideo Nomo, Kenny Rogers, Jeff Kent, Moises Alou and Luis Gonzalez also are among the players eligible to be voted on for the first time by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America. The 36-player ballot will include Armando Benitez, Sean Casey, Ray Durham, Eric Gagne, Jacque Jones, Todd Jones, Paul Lo Duca, Richie Sexson, J.T. Snow and Mike Timlin, the Hall said Tuesday. Voters are the approximately 600 writers who have been members of the BBWAA for 10 consecutive years at any point. Ballots are due by Dec. 31, and results will be announced Jan. 8. Players elected along with choices announced Dec. 9 by the expansion era committee (1973 and later) will be inducted July 27 at Cooperstown. Among those on the committee ballot are retired managers Bobby Cox, Tony La Russa and Joe Torre; late Yankees owner George Steinbrenner; and late players’ union head Marvin Miller. Last year, the BBWAA failed for the first time since 1996 to produce any inductees. Craig Biggio came closest to receiving the necessary 75 percent, falling 39 shy with 388 (68.2 percent). Jack Morris, who will be on the ballot for the final time this year, was second with 67.7 percent, followed by Jeff Bagwell (59.6), Mike Piazza (57.8), Tim Raines (52.2), Lee Smith (47.8) and Curt Schilling (38.8). Making their first appearances on the ballot, Clemens was at 37.6 percent, Bonds at 36.2 and Sosa at 12.5. McGwire received 16.9 percent on his seventh try. Players remain on the ballot if they receive at least 5 percent support and can stay in the voting for up to 15 years. Other returnees include Don Mattingly, Edgar Martinez, Fred McGriff, Rafael Palmeiro, Alan Trammell and Larry Walker. Chicago Bulls star Derrick Rose is out for the season 60458345 CHICAGO (AP) — Derrick Rose’s comeback turned out to be a cameo, and the Chicago Bulls’ worst nightmare became a reality again. The Bulls’ hopes about contending for a championship this season took a serious hit. Their long-term plans appear to be up in the air, too. The team said Rose will miss the remainder of the season after having surgery Monday morning in Chicago to repair a torn medial meniscus in his right knee. For the Bulls and their point guard, it’s an all-too-familiar spot. “I felt for him. He is a great person, first and foremost,” coach Tom Thibodeau said before Chicago played at Utah. Rose was injured Friday night at Portland, a huge setback for him and the organization. The 2011 NBA MVP missed all of last season after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee in Chicago’s 2012 playoff opener against Philadelphia. He has played in just 50 NBA games — 49 in the regular season and that lone playoff game — since the Bulls’ run to the Eastern Conference finals during his MVP season. The latest injury occurred in the third quarter against the Trail Blazers. He lost his footing while trying to change direction to get back on defense when Nicolas Batum stole a pass from Joakim Noah and started the other way. Rose limped across the court and couldn’t put any weight on his knee. After the Blazers scored, he came out of the game during a timeout. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
