POMEROY — The Meigs County Humane Society has been awarded two grants that will benefit the county’s animals and assist the Meigs County dog warden in carrying out the duties of that position. A grant from the PETCO Foundation of $2,500 is designated for its spay/neuter program, and the one from Binky Foundation in the amount of $1,711 was given to the purchase the Talon Animal Capture System kit, which is a humane way to capture dogs. Since 1999, the PETCO Foundation, whose mission has always been to raise the quality of life for the nation’s pets, has worked with national and local animal welfare organizations to help them provide assistance for companion animals of all kinds. The foundation works to raise the quality of life for pets and the people who love and need them. This PETCO grant is intended to provide funding for projects that support the PETCO Foundation 4Rs: Reduce (through spay/ neuter); Rescue (through adoptions); Rehabilitate (through training); and Rejoice (through promoting and assisting with the human/animal bond). “This 4Rs grant is invaluable for us living in an area where many people cannot afford to sterilize the family pet,” said Dixie Sayre, Meigs County Humane Society president. “Unfortunately, many people decide not to keep a dog or cat, particularly a female, because of the likelihood that the pet will eventually end up with puppies. But this need not happen. Through this most welcome grant, we can help many additional pet owners, through our Spay/Neuter Fund, to have their pets sterilized. They can stay in the family living longer, happier lives.” “Pet owners who are interested in spay/neuter assistance or those who See CARE | 2 �Page 2 s The Daily Sentinel Meigs County Church Calendar Community Sing LONG BOTTOM — The Faith Full Glospel Church will have a community sing at 7 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 13, at the church located on State Route 124, Long Bottom.

The kit is packed in a compartmentalized aluminum carrying case for rapid easy deployment. “These two grants could not have come to us at a better time,” said Baer. “We can now increase the number of spay/neuter coupons we can offer residents of Meigs County, which means we can make a dent in the number of unwanted litters. In addition, we now have a way to capture unwilling or scared dogs at a distance, which has not been possible before now. We are so grateful to the PETCO Foundation and the Binky Foundation for their generous help.” Care From Page 1 may need emergency help in purchasing pet food, are required to provide documentation which is proof of low income, such as Social Security Disability or Medicaid cards, or unemployment verification,” Sayre added. The Binky Foundation (Helping People Help Animals), based in New York City, was founded in 2004 by Michalina and Peter Bickford and is named for their beloved cat, Binky, who lived with them for 18 years. The Binky Foundation maintains that education is the most im- portant shield against the destruction of habitat and its dependent wildlife and the development of understanding and respect for all animals (whether domestic or wild). The Binky Foundation awarded the Meigs County Humane Society a ” First Steps” grant, designed for individuals or organizations looking for initial seed grants of less than $2,500 that address a specific issue. The Binky Foundation grant permitted the organization to purchase a humane capture system for the Meigs County Dog Shelter. “In the last few years, www.mydailysentinel.com �Tuesday, December 10, 2013 The Daily Sentinel s Page 3 www.mydailysentinel.com Ferrell PVH employee of the month Pleasant Valley Hospital announces the Customer Service Employee of the Month for November 2013 is Carrie Ferrell in the Environmental Services Department.

World leaders to speak at memorial JOHANNESBURG (AP) — South Africa prepared Monday for a massive memorial in a soccer stadium honoring Nelson Mandela, where an eclectic mix of world leaders will eulogize the anti-apartheid icon before a crowd of nearly 100,000 mourners. As a prelude to the stadium event, United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and retired Archbishop Desmond Tutu spoke at an event at the Nelson Mandela Centre of Memory Monday night. “What a fantastic gift God gave to us in this Mandela, who quickly became an icon, a global icon of forgiveness, of generosity of spirit,” Tutu said. “He really was like a magician with a magic wand, turning us into this glorious, multi-colored, rainbow people,” said Tutu. At the Soweto stadium where Mandela made his last public appearance at the 2010 World Cup, workers busily constructed a stage protected by bulletproof glass for Tuesday’s memorial. Police promised “thousands” of officers would secure the stadium, though security appeared lax Monday and a security company owner used his small car as a mobile office to hire guards just at the stadium. Nearly 100 heads of state are expected at the 95,000-capacity FNB Stadium, where some mourners are already camped out to be the first ones inside. Authorities expect overflow crowds to watch the event at nearby stadiums as well, saying they’d shut off access if the crowds grow too large. Officers will direct traffic, protect mourners and help the bodyguards of visiting dignitaries, Lt. Gen. Solomon Makgale, a spokesman for the South African Police Service, said Monday. “We will be on hand to make sure people are able to grieve in a safe environment,” Makgale told The Associated Press. Makgale said a joint taskforce of police, diplomats and intelligence service personnel already have been making plans and talking to the foreign delegations who plan to attend the ceremony. Makgale said police were prepared for Tuesday’s event, which also will include speeches from Mandela’s family and friends. “Whether we have 10 heads of state coming or 70 or 100, we do have the capacity and plans in place to facilitate their movement,” Makgale said. United States President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle left Washington for Johannesburg aboard Air Force One on Monday. In a rare get-together, they were joined by former President George W. Bush, his wife Laura and former first lady Hillary Clinton. Former Presidents Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter are traveling separately to South Africa. A program released by the South African government showed Obama would speak, as would United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and Chinese Vice President Li Yuanchao. Others speakers include Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff, Namibian President Hifikepunye Pohamba, Indian President Pranab Mukherjee and Cuban President Raul Castro. South African President Jacob Zuma will give the keynote address. Though security remains a concern, an AP reporter walked unsearched into the stadium Monday by showing only a national press card issued in Europe. It took about three minutes before a security officer asked journalists to leave the stadium’s field. However, reporters freely roamed throughout the stadium and walked the aisles to see the ongoing stage construction. Officials from the U.S. Consulate in Johannesburg also toured the venue Monday, but declined to speak to journalists. Meanwhile, a private security firm called Sidas Security was still hiring guards for Tuesday’s event on Monday, using a compact car as an office. Sidas manager George Mathabe said the company will have 1,500 guards on duty Tuesday. “I’m doing this from the bottom of my heart, just to thank Tata,” Mathabe said, using the Xhosa word for father as an endearment name for Mandela. “My son is coming tomorrow as a visitor too. He’s going to live in a free country. He’s going to be able to do whatever he likes thanks to Tata.” Roads several square kilometers (miles) around the stadium will be closed Tuesday, and people will have to walk or take public transport to the stadium.

Mass. pension board settles Alpha Appalachia suit BOSTON (AP) — Massachusetts has reached a $265 million settlement with mining company Alpha Appalachia Holdings Inc. for allegedly misrepresenting its safety record in an effort to artificially inflate its stock price following an explosion at a West Virginia mine that killed 29 people, state officials announced Monday. The Pension Reserves Investment Management Board, which oversees public pension investments in Massachusetts, was the lead plaintiff in a class-action lawsuit brought by multiple investors against the company formerly known as Massey Energy Co. Parent company Alpha Natural Resources bought Massey for $7.1 billion in 2011. “Businesses need to be open and transparent to the people who invest in them, and this case sends a clear message that misrepresentations and bad business practices will not be tolerated and will have severe consequences,” said Massachusetts Treasurer Steven Grossman, who’s also chairman of the investment board. Investors’ share of the settlement will be proportional to their percentage of shares damaged in value as a result of the misstatements by Massey, officials said. “This settlement returns significant taxpayer money to the state pension system that was lost as a result of misleading information,” state Attorney General Martha Coakley said. “Businesses must be truthful and honest with investors and our office will continue working to ensure we protect these important public funds.” The plaintiffs alleged that Massey told investors it strongly adhered to proper safety procedures, but the company had a culture of safety violations, leading to the April 2010 explosion at the Upper Big Branch coal mine in West Virginia, the worst U.S. coal mining disaster in 40 years. Investigators uncov- ered hundreds of safety violations, causing the company’s stock to plunge.

TVPG �The Daily Sentinel OPINION Page 4 Tuesday, December 10, 2013 Analysis: Crises in Asia Five trends beneath the surface in jobs report let Biden show US resolve Josh Boak AP Economics Writer Josh Lederman The Associated Press SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — As Vice President Joe Biden left for Asia on a mission to reinforce America’s determination to be a major Pacific player, a regional crisis over disputed airspace threatened to drown out his message. In the end, it was quite the opposite. From one capital to the next, Biden found himself at the center of the dispute, playing referee for China and its neighbors. He also acted as emissary between Japan and South Korea in a separate feud between the U.S. allies. The intense diplomacy on issues far removed from Washington made clear the degree to which leaders in Asia still look to America to try to solve problems when it seems like no one else can. Biden tried repeatedly to head off the notion that the Obama administration’s push to “rebalance” its foreign policy toward a fast-growing Asia had petered out. “The United States never says anything it does not do,” Biden said in Seoul. Even if the White House has found it difficult to keep one foot in Asia amid crises in the Mideast, there was little doubt that Asian powers see the U.S. playing a leading role, decades after wars in Japan, Vietnam and Korea brought tens of thousands of U.S. troops to the region. Each country wanted something specific from Biden. Japan and South Korea wanted the U.S. to stand firm against China’s unilateral declaration of an air defense zone over disputed islands in the East China Sea. Japan, in par- ticular, wanted assurances the U.S. wouldn’t acquiesce by advising U.S. commercial pilots to comply with the zone. China wanted the vice president to mimic specific phrasing about pursuing a “new model of majorcountry relations” that’s become an officially sanctioned mantra for Chinese officials. He did, often. South Korea wanted Biden to help choreograph an exchange of public gestures between Seoul and Tokyo to alleviate resentments over Japanese colonialism that have reached a fever pitch. As if to demonstrate how closely Asia is watching the U.S., North Korea released an elderly U.S. tourist detained since October — hours before Biden was set to visit the Demilitarized Zone. Security experts speculated the move probably was intended to deny Biden the chance to cast a spotlight on the U.S. list of indictments against the North. Biden just wanted everyone to cool it. He quietly urged Beijing to refrain from enforcing the airspace zone, hoping to give the government a way out, rather than insisting that it formally rescind the zone. He wanted Tokyo to drop its objections to a major trade deal. He wanted Seoul to avoid sudden movements and consult with its neighbors before expanding its own air defense zone to send a stern message to China. South Korea on Sunday said it was expanding its zone, which overlaps with China’s, and the State Department said it supported the step. It’s an open question whether Biden achieved The Daily Sentinel Reader Services Correction Policy Our main concern in all stories is to be accurate.

In more than one instance, Biden’s outreach seemed to brush up against the reality that some American diplomatic pursuits in Asia are working at cross purposes. Biden said the U.S. commitment to its allies is unwavering. But the U.S. is pursuing closer economic ties with China, whose growth and increasing assertiveness have the region on edge. Michael Green, a White House adviser on Asia in the George W. Bush administration, said by embracing Chinese diplomatic language about a new model of major-country relations, Biden sent an implicit message that America’s bonds with allies like Japan and South Korea are becoming less important. “That was not the intended message, I am sure, but that is how it is being read by worried allied capitals,” Green said. U.S. officials have said they don’t want to be the mediator for regional disputes in Asia. In fact, the U.S. has tried to avoid taking sides on the question of sovereignty of the islands in the East China Sea — a major point of contention for China and its neighbors. But it’s difficult to be “all in,” as the White House has described its Asia policy, and also stay out. Asian nations looking to the U.S. for leadership and conflict resolution may be less inclined to welcome America’s presence in the region if they perceive the U.S. only wants to engage when it has something to gain. WASHINGTON (AP) — As the U.S. job market improves, it’s also evolving, with winners and losers. Warehouses and trucking companies are doing more holiday hiring than the stores they’re working for. Factory workers are getting more overtime, while pay is nearly flat for hotel and restaurant employees. Retirement-age Americans are staying on the job. And for people who’ve been out of work for more than six months, the outlook has gone from painful to desperate. Here’s a look at five trends that emerge from the November employment report released Friday: — HOLIDAY SHOPPING Hiring typically gets a boost from the holiday season. But online shopping has changed the mix. Take a look at transportation and warehouse jobs: Those sectors added 30,500 jobs in November, the Labor Department said. That’s 50 percent more than the November 2012 increase. These are FedEx and UPS gigs— the seasonal workers who ship you the deluxe limited DVD edition of “Downton Abbey.” Amazon alone planned to hire 20,000 additional holiday workers this year, according to the personnel firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas. Last month, the shipping sector added more jobs than brick-and-mortar retailers did. Stores added 24,800, only half as many as in the previous year. Still, you might hold off on getting your commercial driver’s license. If Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos can deliver on his now-famous dream, many of those shipping jobs could eventually flow to Bezos’ armada of drones. — DEATH OF FACTORIES GREATLY EXAGGERATED There’s been a lot of handwringing about the plight of manufacturing. Factory orders have tumbled in recent months, government reports show. But industry surveys show that assembly lines are still cranking away. Friday’s jobs report suggests that factories are booming. Manufacturers added 27,000 jobs. The result is that total factory employees cracked the 12 million mark for the first time since 2009. What’s more, factory workers are averaging 4.5 hours of overtime each week, an increase of nearly 10 percent over the year. We’re talking more cars, more steel, more machinery — and more spillover effects that boost other sectors, like transportation and technology. — GRAYER WORKERS The unemployment rate is just 4.9 percent for Americans older than 65, compared with 7 percent for adults as a whole.

Dating to November 2012, the number of senior citizens who either have a job or are looking for one has grown by nearly half a million to 7 million. In some cases, they kept working after they reached retirement age because their nest egg vanished during the financial crisis. There’s another factor, too: Social Security. To receive full Social Security benefits, Americans now have to wait until age 66, instead of 65. — STAGNANT PAY AT THE BOTTOM Restaurants and hotels created nearly 16 percent of the jobs added over the past 12 months. Those industries are known for paying low wages to their fry cooks and cleaning staff. Fast food chains like McDonald’s have been at the epicenter of a battle over low wages, with employees around the country last week staging walkouts. Restaurants and hotels added 361,000 workers this year. And basic economic theory says greater demand for workers usually leads to higher pay. So how much did restaurants and hotels have to raise pay to attract people in November? Just 15 cents an hour to $11.80. Based on the average number of hours the industry’s employees work each week, that wage is roughly at the poverty line for a parent and child. And since September, leisure industry wages have actually dipped 3 cents an hour. — LONG-TERM UNEMPLOYED Even as the number of unemployed Americans has fallen nearly 350,000 in the past two months, the ranks of the longterm unemployed have barely budged. They number about 4.1 million. And they’re not catching many breaks. Companies are shying away from hiring workers with extended gaps in their resumes. More than 37 percent of unemployed Americans in November have been out of work for half a year or more, a higher proportion than in October. If most of these Americans continue to be viewed as unemployable, that trend will hold back the economy’s growth. White House officials and Democrats in Congress argue that such figures illustrate the need for extended unemployment benefits, which are set to expire Dec. 28. The extended benefits program provides 28 extra weeks in most states, paid for by the federal government, on top of the 26 weeks typically available. If that program lapses, 1.3 million people will immediately lose benefits. An additional 800,000 would do so in the first two months of 2014. The White House and Democrats on Capitol Hill have stepped up their support for extending the extra benefits as part of budget talks.

The Daily Sentinel s Page 5 Congress ready to extend ban on plastic firearms WASHINGTON (AP) — A Senate vote to renew an expiring ban on plastic firearms capable of evading metal detectors and X-ray machines is shaping up as a bittersweet moment for gun control supporters, days before the anniversary of the deadly mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut. Monday’s vote to extend the prohibition on plastic guns for another decade responds to a growing threat from steadily improving 3-D printers that can produce such weapons. But gun control advocates seem sure to lose an effort to impose additional, tougher restrictions on plastic firearms — a harsh reminder of their failure to enact any new federal gun curbs in the year since 20 first-graders and six educators were murdered in Newtown, Conn. The slayings last Dec. 14 prompted the newly re-elected President Barack Obama to push gun control to the top of his domestic agenda. But Congress approved nothing, and gun control advocates face the same uphill struggle in 2014, complicated by internal divisions over what their next step should be. “The gun lobby still has enormous power in Washington — more, frankly, than I thought they still had,” said Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., who represented Newtown last year while in the House. Illustrating the roadblocks that have thwarted gun control forces, an effort by Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., to make plastic guns more detectable by requiring them to have a permanent metal part seems certain to fail Monday. His plan is opposed by Republicans and the National Rifle Association. The Senate is then expected to easily approve a 10-year extension of the ban, which would otherwise expire Tuesday. Schumer and other Democrats, as well as guncontrol advocates and law enforcement officials, say there’s a problem with current law on plastic guns: It lets gun makers meet its requirements by including a metal part that can be easily detached — thus letting the weapon evade screening devices. In a statement last week, the NRA expressed no opposition to renewing the law. But the gun lobby said it would fight any expanded requirements, including Schumer’s “or any other proposal that would infringe on our Second Amendment rights” to bear arms. 60468728 �The Daily Sentinel SPORTS TUESDAY, DECEMBER 10, 2013 mdssports@civitasmedia.com Marauders outlast River Valley, 51-50 Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com BIDWELL, Ohio — You only have to win by one. The Meigs boys basketball team picked up its first victory of the 2013-14 season Saturday night following a hard-fought 5150 victory over host River Valley in a non-conference matchup in Gallia County. The visiting Marauders (1-1) handed the Raiders (1-2) their second straight setback, but only because a last-second shot at the buzzer rimmed out on RVHS — allowing Meigs to claim the nar- row one-point triumph. The game was fairly close throughout, although RVHS held leads of one point and five points after each of the first two periods of play. The Raiders jumped out to a small 1110 edge after eight minutes of play, then went on an 18-14 run in the second canto for a 29-24 cushion at the break. The Marauders, however, countered with a pivotal 14-6 run in the third stanza, which allowed the guests to claim a 38-35 lead headed into the finale. RVHS closed regulation with a slim 15-13 run, but ultimately came up one point short in its comeback bid. Meigs made 19 total field goals, four of which were trifectas, and committed 24 turnovers in the triumph. The Marauders also went just 9-of-24 at the free throw line for 38 percent, including a 4-of-13 effort in the fourth quarter. Kaileb Sheets led the guests with a game-high 19 points, followed by Damon Jones with 16 points and Ty Phelps with eight markers. Isaiah English and Jordan Hutton respectively rounded out the winning tally with five points and three points. River Valley made 12 total field goals, three of which were from behind the arc, and committed 21 turnovers in the setback. RVHS was also 20-of-31 at the charity stripe for 65 percent, including an 8-for13 effort in the finale. John Qualls paced the Raiders with 15 points, followed by Justin Rusk with 11 points and Seann Roberts with nine markers. Kirk Morrow chipped in seven points, while Tyler Twyman and Jordan Howell respectively added four and three markers. Dayton Hardway rounded out the home scoring with one point.

Defenders win Calvary Classic Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com HURRICANE, W.Va. — A weekend worth celebrating. The Ohio Valley Christian boys basketball team evened its season record to .500 with a pair of wins Friday and Saturday at the 2013 Calvary Classic held at Calvary Baptist Academy in Putnam County. The Defenders (3-3) shot at least 43 percent from the field in each game, as OVCS scored a 52-34 decision over host CBA in the opening round Friday before earning a 61-43 victory over Teays Valley Christian in the championship game Saturday afternoon. Ohio Valley Christian also held both opponents to under 36 percent from the floor in both triumphs. OVCS shot 47 percent from the floor against host Calvary, which included a 6-of-12 effort in the opening quarter while establishing a 13-2 advantage. Both teams traded 15 points apiece in the second canto, allowing the Defenders to take a 28-17 edge into the intermission. Ohio Valley Christian kept that momentum going into the second half, as the guests used a 16-10 spurt to gain a 44-27 lead headed into the finale. OVCS closed regulation with an 8-7 run to wrap up the 18-point victory. T.G. Miller led the Defenders — who went 22-of-47 overall from the field — with a game-high 27 points. Marshall Hood was next with 12 points, followed by Danny Ballantyne and Austin Ragan with four markers apiece. Dillon Ragan chipped in three points to the winning cause, while Evan Bowman rounded out the scoring with two markers. OVCS was 8-of-16 at the free throw line for 50 percent and also went 0-for-5 from three-point range. CBA connected on just 13-of-38 shot attempts in the setback for 34 percent, including a 2-of-13 effort from behind the arc for 15 percent. The hosts were also 6-of-12 at the charity stripe for 50 percent.

The Gallia Academy boys basketball dropped a pair of games this weekend, falling to Warren 88-39 in an Southeastern Ohio Athletic League contest, and then getting doubled-up by Chesapeake on Saturday, 62-31. Warren (2-0, 1-0 SEOAL) outscored the Blue Devils (0-3, 0-1) 27-to-9 in the opening period and 19-to-11 in the second to hold the 46-20 halftime advantage. The Warriors weren’t content with the lead and went expanded it, outscoring GAHS 20-to-10 in the third period and 22-to-9 in the finale to take the 88-39 victory.

Peyton Kramer’s interception gave Marion Local the ball on the Trimble 11 and Jacy Goettemoeller scored on the next play to make it 19-0. Chris Lochtefeld picked off another pass on Trimble’s next possession and Bertke scored on a 3-yard run to give Marion Local a 26-point lead. “I think it really took them out of what they wanted to do offensively,” Flyers coach Tim Goodwin said. “It really played into our hands. We match up really well when teams want to spread us out and throw the ball. It’s kind of our strength. It was bad news for them.” Scoring quick is nothing new for an offense led by Bertke, a Pittsburgh recruit. Marion Local averaged 45.8 points in the playoffs coming in. The Flyers totaled 414 yards of offense, including 153 rushing. Bertke finished 17-of-28 for 216 yards and added 47 yards rushing. Goettemoeller had 44 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. “Once we get into a groove we have the mentality that no one can stop us,” Bertke said. “Once we settle down and everyone knows what they’re doing, it’s good.” LEGALS Drivers & Delivery Restaurants AUTOMOTIVE "TO THE FATHER REGARDING THE ADOPTION OF DAKOTA RUSSELL CLONCH" MEIGS COUNTY PROBATE COURT Please be advised a Petition for the Adoption of Dakota Russell Clonch has been filed in the Meigs County Probate Court.

Joiner (Columbus, OH) came off the bench to score 11 points and grab a game-high 10 rebounds to lead the University of Rio Grande in a 75-64 victory over Berea (Ky.) College in the opening round of the 30th Annual Ivanhoe’s Classic, Friday night, at Taylor University’s Odle Arena. The RedStorm, who won for the third straight time, improved to 6-2 overall and advanced to Saturday afternoon’s championship game against the host Trojans, who defeated Indiana-Dabney, 94-72, in last night’s opening game. Berea lost for just the third time in 10 outings. The Mountaineers jumped to an 8-1 lead inside the game’s first four minutes, but Rio Grande responded with an 18-3 to grab a lead it would never relinquish. Berea did get as close as two points late in the half and trailed by four, 38-34, at the intermission, but the RedStorm opened the second half on a 19-8 run to enjoy their biggest lead of the night, 57-42, following a conventional three-point play by freshman forward Bilal Young (Cleveland, OH) with 8:56 remaining in the game. Berea twice closed the gap to nine points, but got no closer the rest of the way. Warmack, a senior guard from Orange, N.J., also had seven rebounds to go along with a game-high four assists and four steals for Rio Grande, which shot 50 percent from the floor in the second half (11-for-22). Sophomore forward Phillip Hertz (Rungsted Kyst, Denmark) also reached double figures with 10 points. The Mountaineers were led by Daishon Robinson’s 14 points and four steals, while Deon Banks and Richard Parker added 11 and 10 points, respectively. Seth Beckham paced BC in rebounding with six. �Tuesday, December 10, 2013 The Daily Sentinel s Page 9 www.mydailysentinel.com BLONDIE By Dean Young and John Marshall BEETLE BAILEY By Mort, Greg and Brian Walker Today’s answer RETAIL By Norm Feuti HAGAR THE HORRIBLE HI AND LOIS By Chris Browne Written By Brian & Greg Walker; Drawn By Chance Browne THE BRILLIANT MIND OF EDISON LEE By John Hambrock BABY BLUES ZITS By Jerry Scott & Rick Kirkman By Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman PARDON MY PLANET CONCEPTIS SUDOKU By Vic Lee RHYMES WITH ORANGE Hank Ketcham’s DENNIS THE MENACE by Dave Green By Hilary Price THE LOCKHORNS By Bunny Hoest & John Reiner By Bil and Jeff Keane Make the Switch to DISH Today and Save Up To 50% Call Now and Ask How! 1-800-401-1670 All offers require 24-month commitment and credit qualification.Call 7 days a week 8am - 11pm EST Promo Code: MB0913 *Offer subject to change based on premium movie channel availability Today’s Solution THE FAMILY CIRCUS Promotional prices ly ... starting at on FREE OVER 30 PREMIUM MOVIE CHANNELS mo. ths for 12 monHo pper Not eligible wi2 th or iPad offer.

(AP) — Ohio University is headed to the Beef ‘O’ Brady’s Bowl to face East Carolina of Conference USA. It’s the second straight season that the Mid-American Conference will be represented in the pre-Christmas game held at Tropicana Field, home of baseball’s Tampa Bay Rays. Ball State made the trip last December, receiving the bid when the Big East was unable to fulfill the league’s bowl commitments. This time, the American Athletic Conference was unable to supply a team, and Ohio (7-5) will face East Carolina (9-3) on Dec. 23. It will be the fifth straight bowl trip for the Bobcats under coach Frank Solich. East Carolina will be making its 19th bowl appearance. The Pirates last appeared in a Florida bowl in 1965, when they beat Maine in the Tangerine Bowl. Maryland plays Marshall in Military Bowl ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) — Maryland won’t have to cross the state line for its first bowl appearance since 2010. The Terrapins (7-5) will face Marshall (9-4) in the Military Bowl on Dec. 27. The game will be held at the home stadium of the Naval Academy. Maryland finished 7-5 this season to earn its first bowl bid under third-year coach Randy Edsall. The last time the Terrapins played in the postseason, they beat East Carolina when the Military Bowl was held in the nation’s capital. This will be the sixth Military Bowl, the first in Annapolis. Marshall received its invitation on Saturday. The Thundering Herd went 9-4 and won the Conference USA East Division title before falling to Rice in the league championship game. Marshall and Maryland have never played each other in football. Cincinnati will face North Carolina in Belk Bowl CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — The Cincinnati Bearcats will look to defend their Belk Bowl title Dec. 28 against North Carolina. The Bearcats will be making their second straight appearance in the game after defeating Duke 48-34 last year in Charlotte, Belk Bowl officials announced Sunday night. Belk Bowl executive director Will Webb is excited about the matchup, saying in a release, “The Tar Heels finished the season very strong, as did Cincinnati, and it should provide a great matchup on the field.” Cincinnati (9-3) finished second place in the American Athletic Conference, winning six of their final seven games. North Carolina (6-6) also finished the season strong, winning five of its last six games to become bowl eligible. It has lost its previous three appearances in the game by a combined six points. Coldwater beats Ragland leads Moeller to another Division I title Bishop Hartley “My performance is kind of getting blown out of proportion. I owe it all to the guys up front, and in state contest the athletes around me. When you have talent CANTON, Ohio (AP) — Quarterback Gus Ragland ran for five touchdowns and threw for three more to lead Cincinnati Moeller to the Ohio Division I state championship with a 55-52 win over Mentor Saturday at Canton’s Fawcett Stadium. The Associated Press’ co-offensive player of the year tied the Division I state championship record for rushing touchdowns as Moeller (14-1) won its second consecutive title and ninth overall. He threw for 273 yards and rushed for 189. It’s the first time a school has won back-to-back championships in Division I since Cincinnati Elder did it in 2002-03 and the third time the Crusaders have done it (197980, 1975-77). “My performance is kind of getting blown out of proportion. I owe it all to the guys up front, and the athletes around me,” Ragland said. “When you have talent like that, it’s easy to be a good quarterback.” Mentor quarterback Conner Krizancic, the other co-offensive player of the year, set D-I championship marks for passing yards and completions. He was 36-of-55 for 419 yards and two touchdowns. “I thought it was a great football game,” said Moeller coach John Rodenberg. “We knew playing Mentor it would be a shootout. I think (Mentor Coach Steve) Trivisonno has a great offensive mind. like that, it’s easy to be a good quarterback.” — Gus Ragland Quarterback “They’re so well-coached. We knew we had to score points. It turned out to be one heck of a game. You feel sorry for Mentor, but I’m proud of our guys. We ended up on the winning side.” Moeller led 48-26 after the third quarter, but Mentor scored two touchdowns in the first 36 seconds of the fourth quarter. Krizancic rushed for a 3-yard touchdown with 4 minutes, 12 seconds left and an extra point cut Moeller’s lead to three. Ragland scored the eventual game-winning touchdown, which tied the D-I rushing championship touchdown record set by Davidson’s Bo Delande in 2006, with 2:13 left. Krizancic threw a 3-yard touchdown pass to Eddie Daugherty with 44 seconds left, but the Cardinals’ ensuing onside kick went out of bounds Daugherty (18 catches, 164 yards, 2 TDs) set an all-division mark for receptions in a state final. “That’s what you get in these type of games, great offenses that are hard to stop,” Trivisonno said. “(Ragland is) just a great player, and did as nice of a job as he’s done all year. He wasn’t the co-player of the year for nothing.” The 107 points that Mentor (132) and Moeller scored were the most in a D-I final, eclipsing the 71 by Hilliard Davidson and Moeller in 2006. The Crusaders and Cardinals set D-I state finals marks for most combined touchdowns (15), most combined passing yards (736) and most combined total yards (1,136). The Cardinals’ 586 yards total offense, and Moeller’s 55 points and eight touchdowns also set D-I records. “It’s surreal,” Moeller safety and Ohio State commit Sam Hubbard said. “I know these guys are speechless, too but I’m just proud of our senior class. MASSILLON, Ohio (AP) — Quarterback Brody Hoying rushed for 145 yards and scored three touchdowns on Saturday to lead Coldwater to the Division V state championship with a 24-7 victory over Columbus Bishop Hartley in Paul Brown Tiger Stadium. Hoying, a 5-10, 180-pound junior, scored two of his touchdowns during a span of 2:40 in the fourth quarter on runs of three and 32 yards as the Cavaliers broke open what had been an intense defensive game. He also set up his second touchdown, which gave Coldwater a 17-7 lead with 5:26 to play, when he intercepted a pass on his 3-yard line and returned it 33 yards. Hoying’s return ignited a 10-play, 64-yard scoring drive in which he carried the ball eight times - including six in a row - for 59 yards. He capped the drive by running around right end and diving into the end zone from three yards. He completed the scoring when he went 32 yards after Hartley (13-2) turned the ball over on downs near midfield. Coldwater, from the historically strong Midwest Athletic Conference, became the third school this weekend to successfully defend a state title. Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary and Clarksville Clinton-Massie won titles on Thursday and Friday, respectively. Ranked sixth in the final Associated Press poll, the Cavs also won the school’s fourth state title since 2005 and they finish 2013 with a 13-2 record. Hoying, a cousin of former Ohio State standouts Bobby Hoying and Ross and Adam Homan, was named as the Division V offensive player of the year by the Associated Press earlier this week. Coldwater’s defense played a key role in the victory as it turned back Hartley scoring threats four times inside the 30-yard line, once on Hoying’s interception and three times on downs. Both squads chose to keep the ball on the ground for the most part. Hoying attempted just 13 passes and Hartley’s Jared Brandewie attempted 12. Hoying and Mitch Schoenherr combined to run for 205 yards, while Brandewie and teammates Alonzo Saxton and Sam Mackowiak accounted for most of the Hawks’ 206 yards. Brandewie scored Hartley’s only touchdown on a 7-yard run in the third quarter. Buckeyes to face Clemson in Orange Bowl Athens Medical Associates 60467645 MIAMI LAKES, Fla. (AP) — The Bowl Championship Series came calling once again for Ohio State, albeit not the game the Buckeyes wanted. A day after seeing their national-title hopes and 24game winning streak end with a loss in the Big 10 championship game, the seventh-ranked Buckeyes were selected Sunday to play against No. 12 Clemson in the Orange Bowl on Jan. 3. It’s the 10th BCS berth for the Buckeyes, more than any other school, though one of those appearances was later vacated. “This team, a lot of these players have been through a lot of stuff,” Ohio State coach Urban Meyer said. “Last year they went 12-0 and were unable to go play in a bowl game. Now, their first chance to go play in a bowl game, they’re in a BCS game against a great team. … This group of kids wants to go win a bowl game and win their 13th game. That’s what we’re going to work awful hard to get done.” � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
