Aeiker is charged with one count of abduction, a felony of the third degree; domestic violence, a misdemeanor of the fourth degree; and inducing panic, a misdemeanor of the first degree. The charge of abduction also carries a gun specification according to the indictment. Aeiker was arraigned recently in Meigs County Common Pleas Court on the charges. Bond for Aeiker was set at $1 million, with 10 percent cash permitted. Pre-trial hearings in the case are scheduled for Dec. 16 and Jan. 6, with a trial date of Jan. 21. David Baer was appointed to represent Aeiker. The charges are the result of an incident which occurred soon after dismissal of most Meigs Local students on Wednesday, Oct. 23. Deputies with the Meigs County Sheriff’s Office received a call from the Middleport Police Department of a domestic dispute from a Rutland-area resident. According to Meigs County Sheriff Keith Wood, information was received from Tonya Aeiker of Rutland, reporting an alleged domestic violence incident in which her husband, Lester Aeiker, had made threats to shoot her and their children and then take his own life. Wood advises that it was reported that Lester Aeiker also made statements that if he couldn’t shoot himself, he would point a gun at law enforcement so an officer would have to shoot him. Tonya Aeiker stated that when her husband left for work around 1 p.m., he made a phone call to her stating that “today is the day” and that he wanted her to pick up their children from school and come home so he could end it all for all of them. She also advised that he had called his step-father and told him what he was going to do. According to Wood, Tonya Aeiker stated that she attempted to contact the schools about her mother picking up the kids so the kids would not ride the bus home, but she received a call from her brother stating that Les- ter Aeiker was located at Tonya’s parents’ house near Darwin in a green Pontiac minivan and told Tonya Aeiker’s father that he better get there before he (Lester) does or he would be burying his daughter and grandchildren. Wood said that officers responded, and School Resource Officer Jim Riley was notified as he was at the Meigs Primary/Intermediate School in Rutland. Officers also responded to the Meigs Middle School as the children were located at both schools.

Tri-county talent entertains Charlene Hoeflich choeflich@civitasmedia.com MIDDLEPORT — There’s no doubt about it — the large crowd attending the recent “Christmas Along the River” talent revue held in the Riverbend Arts Council left the auditorium with more Christmas spirit than they had when they came. From the pre-show music of Tony Dingess and the Big Bend Community Band to the full cast finale, there were singers and dancers and instrument players from the tricounty area performing before an appreciative audience. Linda Warner emceed the show which featured costumed dancers from the Gallia-Meigs Performing Arts Studio, a first time appearance for the Cabaletta Children’s Chorus, composed of young students from Mason County Schools, a chorale group from the Bradford Church of Christ, soloists, Bonnie Smith Kreseen, Todd Bissell, Lindsey Jackson, Holly DeLong, and instrumentalists, Bob DeLong and Bill Crane. Bob DeLong presents holiday music on his keyboard during intermission. POMEROY — There’s no place like home for the holidays and since this is the time when families gather, it’s a good time for a reality check on how aging parents and loved ones are really getting along. An emphasis of visiting elderly relatives, advises Gwynn Stewart of the Area Agency on Aging 8 of which Meigs County is a part, should be on observing whether seniors are struggling with the day-to-day tasks of cooking and taking their medications, or perhaps suffering from mild depression or other conditions which affect the way they live. “We always see an increase in community needs during the holidays,” said Rick Hindman, AAA8 director. “When family members reconnect, especially those from out-oftown, they tend to notice changes.”Statistics now show that more than one in four adults in America is caring for a loved one who needs help, and that it is usually a parent. The situation is so common that AARP has released a checklist of tips and questions to simplify observing how Mom and Dad are doing. (see checklist below) Hindman said that once a family has taken stock of what might be needed to support a loved one in the home, then the Area Agency can help connect aging seniors and their caregivers to home and community-based resources. To help families with their challenges and to provide essential resources, Hindman said that there are certified staff specialists in aging information and assistance ready to help caregivers and families connect to services. An assessor will come to the home for a free, no obligation visit., he said, and they will do an assessment of what kinds of help the person might need or what they can use. In addition, AAA8 helps maintain a web resource. The Network of Care empowers seniors and people with disabilities, and caregivers with long-term care information and education. The SE Ohio version may be accessed at http:// SEOhioADRN.oh.networkofcare.org/aging. Hindman said that the Network of Care site helps people find the right services at the right time, that it is a great resource for folks to find resources, and even confidentially manage their personal medical information on the free personal health record accessible from anywhere with internet service. Those interested in learning more should request a free in-home consultation by calling AAA8 at 1-800-331-2644. AAA8 serves Athens, Hocking, Meigs, Monroe, Morgan, Noble, Perry and Washington counties. AARP checklist is as follows: 1.

ÆM_j^� j^[� ckppb[beWZ[h� i[Wson and almost two months of archery hunting yet to come, Ohio hunters have many more opportunities to harvest a deer,” said Scott Zody, chief of the ODNR Division of Wildlife. Hunting is the best and most effective management tool for maintaining Ohio’s healthy deer population. Hunters have harvested 162,720 deer so far in the 2013 hunting seasons, compared to 171,867 at the same point last year, a 5 percent difference. The ODNR Division of Wildlife remains committed to properly managing Ohio’s deer populations through a combination of regulatory and programmatic changes. The goal of Ohio’s Deer Management Program is to provide a deer fefkbWj_ed� j^Wj� cWn_c_p[i� h[Yh[ational opportunities, while minic_p_d]� YedÓ_Yji� m_j^� bWdZemd[hi� and motorists. This ensures that Ohio’s deer herd is maintained at a level that is both acceptable to most, and biologically sound. Until recently, the populations in nearly all of Ohio’s counties were well above their target numbers. In the last few years, through increased harvests, dramatic strides have been made in many counties to bring those populations closer toward their goal. Once a county’s deer population is near goal, harvest regulations are adjusted to maintain the population near that goal. Archery season remains open through Sunday, Feb. 2, 2014. J^[�ckppb[beWZ[h�i[Wied�_i�@Wd$� 4-7, 2014. Counties reporting the highest number of checked deer during the 2013 gun season: Coshocton (2,658), Muskingum (2,604), Tuscarawas (2,604), Guernsey (2,401), Ashtabula (2,334), Harrison (2,133), Carroll (2,019), Knox (1,966), Licking (1,887) and Belmont (1,851). Coshocton County also had the most deer checked in the 2012 deer gun season (3,119). Ohio’s first modern day deergun season opened in 1943 in three counties, and hunters harvested 168 deer. Deer hunting was allowed in all 88 counties in 1956, and hunters harvested 3,911 deer during that one-week season. Hunters are encouraged to donate deer to help the needy in their area. The ODNR Division of Wildlife is working with Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry (FHFH) to help pay for the processing of donated venison. Hunters who donate a deer to a food bank are not required to pay the processing cost as long as funding for the effort is available. More information about this program can be found online at fhfh.org. Other opportunities for hunters to donate venison can be pursued through Safari Club International’s Sportsmen Against Hunger program. Information about this program can be found at safariclubfoundation.org. Whitetails Unlimited chapters also use local funds for programs such as venison donation. Go to whitetailsunlimited.com to find a local chap- ter and make a donation. Deer hunting in Ohio continues to be a popular activity for many who enjoy the outdoors. Ohio hunters checked 218,910 deer during the 2012-2013 season. Ohio ranks fifth nationally in resident hunters and 11th in the number of jobs associated with hunting-related industries. Hunting has a more than $853 million economic impact in Ohio through the sale of equipment, fuel, food, lodging and more, according to the National Shooting Sports Foundation’s Hunting in America: An Economic Force for Conservation publication.

The strikes touched off a national debate about raising wage floors. But this debate has been missing some critical context: a data-driven analysis of what it actually takes to make ends meet in America today, and how the $15 threshold and other proposals stack up. People who are working full-time should earn enough to be able to make ends meet. This is a basic American value. But it turns out $15 an hour falls short – for most family structures, far short. Furthermore, our current economic path isn’t creating nearly enough jobs that pay above even this basic threshold. These are some of the findings of a new economic study, released December 3rd by the Alliance for a Just Society, providing the datadriven analysis needed to put the wage debate in context. The study, America’s Changing Economy: Searching for Work that Pays in the New Low-Wage Job Market – 2013 Job Gap Study, calculates what it costs to make ends meet by analyzing statelevel data on the components of a basic, no-frills household budget – including food, housing, utilities, child care, health care, and transportation. The Job Gap Study uses these household budgets to calculate living wage levels in 10 states, including lowercost states like Idaho and higher-cost states like Connecticut, and also New York City. It calculates living wages for five different household structures, from a single individual to two working parents with two kids. So what is a living wage? The study finds the living wage for a single individual ranges from $13.92 an hour in Montana to $22.66 an hour in New York City. For two working parents with two kids, the living wage ranges from $17.69 per parent in Idaho to $24.52 per John LaForge “This isn’t just a ‘jobless recovery’ — it’s an economic course that has slashed 4 million better-paying jobs (above the $15 median wage threshold) and replaced them with 3.6 million lower-paying ones (below the $15 threshold). The findings of the Job Gap Study cast the wageraising proposals in a new light. Raising the federal minimum wage to $10.10 an hour, for example, still falls far short of any living wage level.” — LeeAnna Hall parent in New York City. For a single parent with one child, it ranges from $19.36 in Montana to $30.02 in New York City. How many job openings will pay these living wage levels, under current economic trends? Not nearly enough. Even at the lowest living wage level, the number of job seekers for each projected job opening that pays a living wage ranges from 5 to 1 in Colorado to 25 to 1 in Connecticut. This is a serious “job gap.” At the national level, the numbers are similarly troubling. With 20.8 million job seekers in 2012, there are 7 job seekers for every projected job opening in occupations with median wages above $15 an hour. Low-wage jobs are on the rise since the official end of the recession in 2009: jobs with median wages below $15 an hour grew from 36.6% of total employment in 2009 to 39.5% in 2012. This isn’t just a “jobless recovery” – it’s an economic course that has slashed 4 million betterpaying jobs (above the $15 median wage threshold) and replaced them with 3.6 million lower-paying ones (below the $15 threshold).

Raising the federal minimum wage to $10.10 an hour, for example, still falls far short of any living wage level. As for the fast food workers’ call for a $15 an hour wage, it only begins to get in the ballpark of the lowest living wage thresholds – which seems a modest target. This debate about wages is important for our whole economy. Because when 50 million workers don’t make enough to cover the basics – as we have now – the whole economy stagnates. If we don’t want the trend toward low-wage jobs – and anemic growth – to become America’s “new normal,” we need to chart a new course with the rules we write for the economy. One element of this course should be responsible wage floors – floors that uphold the principle that people working full-time should be able to make ends meet while re-orienting job growth to create more economy-boosting jobs.

A nuclear-powered Russian submarine with two propulsion reactors onboard burned for five hours last September after sparks, reportedly from an improperly operated welding torch, set the blaze. The submarine Tomsk was being repaired near Vladivostok in Russia’s Far East, according to Russia’s Defense Ministry, which said after the blaze was extinguished Sept. 16 that radiation levels were “normal.” The ministry also declared that no one was injured in the fire, but federal investigators later reported that 15 “servicemen” had been hospitalized. When thick black smoke filled the boat and billowed from the area, the crew evacuated. The blaze started between the Tomsk’s two hulls, burning paint, cables and insulation, and was put out using foam, according to various reports quoting the state-owned United Shipbuilding Corporation. Reuters said further that a rubber seal and cables were also burned. The Tomsk had reportedly been in dry dock undergoing repairs at the Zvezda shipyard in Bolshoi Kamen on the Sea of Japan for years. The Defense Ministry said the sub had all its weapons removed, and that its two propulsion reactors were in cold shutdown. The Serbian Times noted that, “The incident was clearly alarming since the region has a large population and is in proximity of Japan, China, and North Korea.” The paper said the Tomsk is regularly armed with Cruise missiles, mines and torpedoes. With highly radioactive reactor fuel and coolant on board, the fire and it duration raised concerns about airborne and Pacific Ocean contamination being added to that already spewing from the triple reactor meltdowns at Fukushima on Japan’s Northeast coast. The Tomsk has been under repair since 2009, “due to the breakdown of cooling plant at one of the reactors” as the Serbian Times put it, or “due to problems with the cooling engine” according to the Qatar News Agency. The French news agency Agence France Presse, quoting the Russian Information Agency, reported that “Radiation in the area of the emergency incident onboard the Tomsk is normal.” Reports of the size and function of the Tomsk differed significantly. The New York Times said Tomsk, “is an attack submarine and, as such, would not carry strategic nuclear warheads.” But a widely-circulated Associated Press report said, “Tomsk is of the same class as the nuclear submarine Kursk, which sank in 2000 in the Barents Sea after an explosion, killing all 118 people aboard.” The Kursk was giant a ballis- 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.

Fiery Precedents and Radioactive Irony The Norwegian news service Bellona noted that the blaze inside the Tomsk was the fourth Russian submarine fire since 2006 and the sixth major incident aboard a Russian submarine since the catastrophic sinking of the Kursk in 2000. Fire broke out on Russian nuclear submarine Yekaterinburg in Murmansk in December 2011, and 19 people were injured. At the time, the shipyard in northwestern Russia announced that no weapons were onboard. But infestations by Belonna raised questions about the claim that weapons had been removed before maintenance. Eventually, Russian deputy prime minister Dmitry Rogozin confirmed that weapons were aboard the Yekaterinburg during the fire. The name “Tomsk” may have rung a bell because of a far more devastating accident of the same name. On April 6, 1993, in the Siberian city of Tomsk-7, a tank of radioactive waste exploded and burned sending a cloud of radiation across the country in what Russian authorities said was the worst disaster since Chernobyl in 1986. The tank was part of a plutonium separation factory — like waste tanks at the Hanford site in the Washington State and at Savannah River in South Carolina — where highly radioactive reactor fuel had plutonium chemically stripped out for use in H-bombs. After first denying that plutonium has been in the tank, Russian officials belatedly acknowledged that both uranium and plutonium salts were dispersed by the explosion. The underground tank held about 20 cubic meters of liquid wastes, and while a plume it drifted away from the city of Tomsk with half a million residents, radioactive fallout contaminated 2,500 acres and risked dousing 11 Siberian towns, each with several thousand people. The explosion was so severe, Greenpeace Moscow said at the time, that it blew off a concrete slab covering the tank and “released all of the radioactive materials to the atmosphere.” Nuclear Energy Ministry spokesman Vitaly Nasonov told the press then that several firefighters were exposed to dangerous levels of radiation, while Georgy Kaurov, head of NEM’s information department, said only one had received a high dose. The Russian State Committee on Emergencies reportedly put 500 civil defense to work digging up contaminated snow and soil for burial somewhere else. If only there was such a place.

CB Dre Kirkpatrick gets bigger role with Bengals CINCINNATI (AP) — Cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick walked past one of his Cincinnati Bengals teammates in the locker room and summed up his week to everyone within earshot. “Showtime!” he said loudly. Yes. It finally is. The first-round draft pick is moving up the Bengals’ depth chart, one that’s been a steep climb for him. With starting cornerbacks Leon Hall and Terence Newman sidelined by injuries, the playmaker from Alabama’s national championship teams gets to move into a bigger role with the playoffs on the line. Cincinnati (9-4) is closing in on the AFC North title. The Bengals can clinch it if they win in Pittsburgh on Sunday night and second-place Baltimore loses in Miami on Monday night. “I feel I’m doing pretty good, just taking it one day at a time,” Kirkpatrick said. “Like I said, it’s just baby steps. It’s all about baby steps right now.” The Bengals expected him to move into a starting role quickly when they took him with the 12th overall pick last year. He was hurt for most of his rookie season, sidelined by a chronic knee injury and a concussion. He’s been healthy most of this season, but has been limited on the field because Hall, Newman and Adam THURSDAY EVENING BROADCAST 3 (WSAZ) 4 (WTAP) 6 (WSYX) 7 (WOUB) 8 (WCHS) 10 (WBNS) 11 (WVAH) 12 (WPBY) 13 (WOWK) CABLE 6 PM 6:30 WSAZ News 3 WTAP News at Six ABC 6 News at 6 Euromaxx Highlights NBC Nightly News NBC Nightly News ABC World News Nightly Business Report Eyewitness ABC World News at 6 News 10TV News CBS Evening at 6 p.m. News The Big Bang Two and a Theory Half Men BBC World Nightly News: Business America Report 13 News at CBS Evening 6:00 p.m. News 6 PM 6:30 “Pacman” Jones played so well.

TV14 “So yeah, he’ll get obviously an opportunity to expand his role.” The defense has overcome several significant injuries and remained one of the league’s best. It needs Kirkpatrick to uphold the standard. Hall, the Bengals’ top cornerback, tore his right Achilles tendon during a 27-24 win at Detroit on Oct. 20. Newman hurt his left knee during a 42-28 win over the Colts on Sunday and will be sidelined this week in Pittsburgh. That means Kirkpatrick has to move into a full-time role. “I like how he’s progressed,” Hall said on Wednesday. “Obviously he’s had some injuries but anytime he’s been out there — whether it’s out there the little bit of time he’s had on the field or whether it’s in practice — he’s done well. “And anything he hasn’t done well, he’s one of those guys who asks about it, asks what he did wrong, asks how he can get better. So that’s a trait you like to see.” Kirkpatrick didn’t get on the field for more than 10 plays on defense in any of the first seven games. He played 27 the week after Hall was hurt, but was on defense for only 20 plays in the next two games combined. He played a season-high 29 plays on defense during a 41-20 win over Cleveland, but gave up a 74-yard touchdown catch by Josh Gordon. He had 25 plays on defense against the Colts. Kirkpatrick knows that Ben Roethlisberger is likely to challenge him on Sunday night. “But hopefully I can put that to a stop early,” he said. The defense ranks eighth overall after one of its worst showings. The Bengals allowed Andrew Luck to become only the second quarterback to throw for 300 yards against them this season. Luck threw four touchdown passes in the second half. He completed a slant pass that Da’Rick Rogers took 69 yards for a touchdown and another short pass that LaVon Brazill turned into a 19-yard touchdown by slipping through the hands of six defenders. Linebacker Vontaze Burfict said defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer showed them eight plays on Wednesday that he deemed unacceptable, and made his point loudly. “You’d probably have to put some earplugs in,” Burfict said. NOTES: RG Kevin Zeitler, who missed the last three games with an injured right foot, fully practiced on Wednesday, a sign he’ll be ready to play in Pittsburgh. RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis missed practice because of an illness. … The Bengals will take a bus to the University of Cincinnati’s covered practice field on Thursday. Temperatures in the teens are forecast for the morning. Cincinnati is the NFL’s most northern team without its own covered practice field. Do we have your attention now?

His vintage, not to mention gravity-testing somersault into the end zone on a 19-yard interception return for a touchdown in the third quarter turned momentum swiftly in Pittsburgh’s favor at snowy Heinz Field on Sunday afternoon. Then it was relegated to a mere footnote in a 34-28 defeat that all but sank whatever postseason hopes the Steelers were clinging to. “What does it matter?” Polamalu said. “We lost.” The game. The season. And maybe just the latest golden era of one of the NFL’s most successful franchises. The Steelers (5-8) are all but mathematically eliminated from the playoffs with three weeks remaining, the earliest they’ve been out of it since finishing 6-10 a decade ago. Three mostly meaningless games remain starting next weekend against Cincinnati, a stretch that could serve as a long goodbye for familiar faces who have a Super Bowl ring or two tucked away somewhere. Though Polamalu remains under contract in 2014, fellow safety and close friend Ryan Clark is not. And the 34-year-old certainly sounded like he is eyeing the exit door after the Steelers allowed the Dolphins to go 80 yards in four plays late in the fourth quarter to take the lead for good. “Everybody’s time comes,” Clark said. “For me, I just want to enjoy it, keep playing.” It’s a sentiment echoed throughout the locker room, one the Steelers have found themselves repeating far too often this fall. They did it during an 0-4 start. They did it after getting pounded in a record-setting loss to New England in late October. They did it again while quietly dressing after a defeat that had all the hallmarks of a season that never seemed to get off the ground. The defense allowed a trio of big plays, including a 55-yard run by Daniel Thomas that set up Charles Clay’s winning 12-yard touchdown with 2:53 to go. The offense committed penalties on consecutive snaps in the fourth quarter with the Steelers at midfield hoping to close it out. The special teams allowed a punt to be partially blocked and did little in the return game. “We understood what was at stake in terms of us and this football game, specifically,” coach Mike Tomlin said. “We’ll take responsibility for whatever transpires. We understand the gravity of these moments.” And now Tomlin finds himself with one of the more pressing tasks of his still young coaching career: finding a way to keep focused a room full of guys used to playing for something this time of year. Cornerback Ike Taylor insists it won’t be a problem even while allowing he is “frustrated” and “hurt” that the Steelers are assured of consecutive non-winning seasons for just the second time since 1986. “When you’ve consistently been inconsistent? .500 record,” Taylor said. Actually, that’s being generous. Pittsburgh needs to win its final three games to get back to break even, a daunting task considering the way the AFC North leading Bengals (9-4) are playing at the moment. Cincinnati won the first meeting 20-10 back in Week 2. Not much has changed over the last three months. The Bengals remain young and hungry. The Steelers still look like they’re trying to figure it out. Pittsburgh appeared on its way early against the Dolphins. Rookie running back Le’Veon Bell spearheaded a long touchdown drive that gave the Steelers an early lead. Yet Bell was largely invisible in the second half, carrying the ball just five times. When pressed on why Bell wasn’t more involved, quarterback Ben Roethlisberger suggested talking to offensive coordinator Todd Haley. Roethlisberger has never been through a losing season in his life. Not in high school, not in college at Miami (Ohio) and not in 10 seasons with the Steelers. It’s a personal point of pride for the two-time Super Bowl winner, one he expects his teammates to hold close to their hearts too. “We are just going to give it everything we have every day,” Roethlisberger said. “There isn’t going to be any quit from anybody.” Browns WR Josh Gordon on record run Chris Hays | Orlando Sentinel | MCT West Virginia head coach Bob Huggins speaks with an official during a 63-60 loss to Davidson in the Old Spice Classic semifinals at the HP Field House in Lake Buena Vista, Fla., on Friday, Nov. 23, 2012. No. 20 Gonzaga beats West Virginia, 80-76 MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — Center Przemek Karnowski’s height advantage helped No. 20 Gonzaga overcome its worst shooting performance of the season. The sophomore scored a season-high 19 points, Kevin Pangos added 18 and the Bulldogs came from 10 points down to beat West Virginia 80-76 on Tuesday night. A 7-foot-1 native of Poland, Karnowski had his way against West Virginia’s undersized front court, which doesn’t have a player over 6-10. Karnowski made 6 of 11 field goals and matched a career high with 13 rebounds for the second double-double of his career. “The guys were finding me,” Karnowski said. “I had great passes, I just had to finish them.” A 48 percent free-throw shooter, Karnowski went 7 of 8 from the line. And he had just one foul called on him after spending half of his games in foul trouble, including fouling out twice. “We knew coming in that we had a size advantage,” Gonzaga coach Mark Few said. “Pzem did a good job in traffic and finished some plays. The best thing that he did tonight was rebound, because any team that (West Virginia’s Bob Huggins) coaches is tough and they are going to fight you on the glass.” Gonzaga (9-1) held a 43-36 rebound advantage. Eron Harris led the Mountaineers (6-4) with 23 points, but he had just five points in the second half. Juwan Staten added 17 points and Terry Henderson had 15 for West Virginia. “We did a much better job on Harris in the second half,” Few said. “He was lighting us up in the first half.” The Bulldogs entered the game with the nation’s best field goal percentage at 54.9 but were held to 44.3 percent (27 of 61) in their first game on an opponent’s court this season. Their previous worst was 48.1 percent in a Nov. 25 loss to Dayton in the Maui Invitational. Gonzaga has won five straight games since. Gary Bell Jr. added 15 points and Sam Dower scored 11 for the Bulldogs. As tough as Karnowski was to stop, so too was Pangos down the stretch. After going 3 of 10 from the field in the first half, the junior went 4 of 7 after halftime. Pangos had 11 points in the final 6 minutes as Gonzaga rallied from down 53-43, its only double-digit deficit this season. “Kevin kept at it,” Dower said. “He didn’t give up. He was persistent. He hit some really big 3s and that’s what he does. We knew it was coming sooner or later. That lifted up the team’s morale as well, and got everybody going.” West Virginia failed to seize on an opportunity to pad its resume and get its first win over a marquee opponent. West Virginia lost in the past two weeks to No. 4 Wisconsin and Missouri. The Mountaineers were held to one field goal over a 7-minute stretch late in the game. “I think the whole thing started when we didn’t get back on defense,” Huggins said. “We are so close to being pretty good, but at the same time, we are so far away.” West Virginia had just five turnovers but was held to its secondworst shooting performance of the season at 37.3 percent (25 of 67). The Mountaineers have lost 13 straight times to ranked opponents. Pangos hit a 3-pointer with 4:09 left to give Gonzaga the lead for good, 68-66. It was the Bulldogs’ first lead of the second half. Pangos made two more wideopen 3-pointers over the next 2 minutes and Bell made two free throws with 1:52 left to give Gonzaga its largest lead, 76-68. After Pangos was called for a charge into Harris, Staten hit a basket with 51 seconds left to pull West Virginia within 76-74. But the Mountaineers didn’t score another field goal the rest of the game. Austin Dillon to bring No. 3 to Sprint Cup Series CONCORD, N.C. (AP) — The late Dale Earnhardt’s famed No. 3 will be back on track in the elite Sprint Cup Series next season with Austin Dillon using the number. The move has been long anticipated because car owner Richard Childress has allowed his grandson to use the No. 3 as he’s moved through NASCAR’s ranks. “I know in my heart, today, as I sit here, Dale Earnhardt is smiling down,” Childress said at Wednesday’s unveiling. “He would want to see this 3. He didn’t want it to ever go away. But I felt it was the thing to do right after Daytona, and I know today that he’s accepting this highly. I knew him that well.” The number has not been used since Earnhardt’s death in the 2001 season-opening Daytona 500. The car was rebranded to No. 29 for Kevin Harvick following Earnhardt’s fatal accident. But Dillon has been using it NASCAR national competition since 2009, when he made his Truck Series debut in the No. 3. He won the Truck championship in 2011 driving the No. 3 for Richard Childress Racing, and the Nationwide title this year in the same number. Childress kept the num- ber out of the Cup Series, though, intent on hanging on to it for the right driver. “We held the number, I’ve been paying NASCAR for it throughout the years and Bill (France) Jr. told me ‘You know, if we’re ever challenged, we’ll have to let someone have that 3,’ ” Childress said. “But we weren’t, and I knew that the right opportunity would come. It would have to be an Earnhardt or one of the Childress family that we would put behind that.” Childress said he publicly floated the idea of allowing Dillon to use the No. 3 at the start of the year to get a fan response, and got 90 percent positive feedback the day after he mentioned the number. “That said to me it was time, and if Austin wanted to it was his choice,” Childress said. Dillon said he was ready, and it’s the only number he’s ever used in NASCAR. “My grandfather has done a great job of teaching me how to handle certain responses to things, and I think we’re going to go forward with it,” Dillon said. “I’ve heard a lot of good feedback from the fans, and every time I’m at an autograph session I’ve had someone ask what’s going to happen. They are excited and we are, too, at RCR. BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Once the ball was in his hands and then tucked under his right arm, Josh Gordon let his legs take care of the rest. With every long stride, Cleveland’s sensational wide receiver pulled further away from New England Patriots cornerback Aqib Talib, who after being slowed by a stiff arm, had no chance of catching Gordon and eventually slowed down and watched him complete his 80-yard touchdown reception. Like Usain Bolt in shoulder pads, Gordon was a blur. From the sideline, Browns cornerback Joe Haden knew Talib was in trouble. “Once he didn’t tackle him as soon as he caught it, I was like, ‘Oh yeah, he’s about to run away from this dude,’” Haden said. “That’s a bad feeling when you just can’t catch somebody.” Lately, nobody can catch Gordon. With 774 yards receiving, Gordon has put together the best four-game stretch of any player in NFL history. In the past four games, he has 36 catches, five touchdowns, two 200-yard games, set team records for yards in a game and season and tied the club mark for receptions in a game. Gordon’s 1,400 yards leads the league and he’s averaging 127.3 yards per game, also tops in the league. He’s accomplished it all despite playing in just 11 games after being suspended from the Browns’ first two games for failed drug tests. However, the most impressive number tied to Gordon may be 22 — his age. He’s just getting started. “He can get so much better,” said Haden, who goes against Gordon in practice. “I hope he knows how good he can get. I try to tell him and I think he’s getting it. When he locks in and he comes out there and he goes hard and just imposes his will basically. He’s big, fast, strong, can catch, and when the ball comes his way, he’s just — J.G.’s different. He’s just different.” Gordon finished with seven receptions for 151 yards on Sunday, and although it wasn’t his best statistical game, it may have been his most impressive performance to date. Patriots coach Bill Belichick put Talib, his best defensive player, in single coverage on Gordon. It was a mismatch as Gordon dominated Talib, who was called for three penalties — one was declined — while trying to stop the 6-foot-3, 225-pounder. Unable to handle Gordon physically, Talib resorted to some verbal warfare. “He talked a lot,” Gordon said. “He definitely talked a lot like I expected him to. We exchanged some words, but you know I think the plays spoke for themselves a lot more.” There was Gordon’s 80-yard TD on a slant, his 34yard run on a reverse and his 19-yard catch on thirdand-17 in the fourth that set up a touchdown, giving Cleveland a 26-14 lead. Gordon did all he could to put his team in position to win, but just as they’ve done during his remarkable four-game stretch, the Browns lost. Gordon said the four-game slide has stung. “It does because they’re so close, games that we could’ve won, we should’ve won just coming down to the last few seconds,” he said. “Teams are scoring points with a few seconds or maybe like a minute left in the game. It hurts to watch everything you worked hard for just crumble down so quickly.” But Gordon’s spectacular rise has given Cleveland fans hope and brought some deserved attention to a player just starting to tap into his potential. Gordon’s credits his success to hard work and staying hungry. He won’t change now. “I haven’t reached where I’m trying to go and I try to stay humble,” he said. “That’s really just my personality through and through.” That humility has made an impression on Gordon’s teammates, who marvel at his talent every day in practice and rest of the world sees on game day. Haden believes Gordon has moved into the elite class of wide receivers with Calvin Johnson, A.J. Green and others. “J.G., he’s playing on another level right now,” he said. “He’s doing the right things. He’s making all the plays he has to. I mean 230 (yards), 260, 150, there’s nothing else you can say. Nobody else is doing it. If other receivers were doing this stuff, then other people would be like, ‘they’re stepping up, they’re becoming elite.’ He’s just becoming better and better and better. He’s still young, he’s 22 and he’s handling it. “He’s got 1,400 receiving yards. Numbers don’t lie.” NOTES: Browns QB Brandon Weeden practiced for the first time since sustaining a concussion on Dec. 1 against Jacksonville. Browns coach Rob Chudzinski said it’s too early to know if Weeden can back up Jason Campbell this week against Chicago. … Haden expressed confidence he will be with Browns after his contract expires in 2015. He said he doesn’t know if negotiations are underway for a new deal. … Browns RB Willis McGahee missed practice as he recovers from a concussion suffered Sunday against New England. �Page 8 s The Daily Sentinel FINANCIAL SERVICES PUBLIC NOTICE NOTICE: is hereby given that on Tuesday, December 17, 2013 at 10:00 a.m., a public sale will be held at 211 W.

MARQUES COLSTON, WR, SAINTS Sure, New Orleans quarterback Drew Brees topped the 50,000-yard mark for his career during a 31–13 statement win over NFC South rival Carolina on Sunday night. But it was the resurgence of Brees’ go-to wideout, Colston, that has Saints fans ready to party like Fat Tuesday came early this year. Colston — who has accounted for 8,115 of Brees’ 50,026 yards — added nine catches for 125 yards and two trips to the end zone. The breakout effort was Colston’s second 100-yard game this year and his first multi-TD contest since Week 17 last season (also against Carolina). JOHN ABRAHAM, LB, CARDINALS The 14th-year veteran pass rusher took down St. Louis’ Kellen Clemens for three sacks — one of which resulted in a safety — along with a forced fumble during a 30–10 victory over the Rams. Abraham also bull-rushed his way to ninth on the all-time sacks list with 133.0, passing Lawrence Taylor and Leslie O’Neal, both of whom had 132.5 career sacks. Abraham is five sacks shy of overtaking John Randle and Richard Dent’s 137.5 career sacks for seventh place on the all-time list. LESEAN MCCOY, RB, EAGLES Shady was a one-man Iditarod during a 34–20 come-from-behind win over the Lions, slicing and dicing his way through eight inches of snow en route to 29 carries for 217 yards and two TDs. Philadelphia continued its quest to go from worst to first in the NFC East by scoring all 34 points in the second half — including 28 fourth-quarter points — in blizzard-like conditions at Lincoln Financial Field. McCoy led the way with 148 fourth-quarter yards on his way to breaking Steve Van Buren’s single-game team rushing record (205) set in 1949. Although the Houston Texans have been in the midst of a free-fall, star wide receiver ANDRE JOHNSON has been putting together another solid fantasy season — with 95 receptions for 1,277 yards (13.4 ypc) and five TDs with three games remaining. Over the past six games, Johnson has four 100-plus-yard games and a pair of multi-TD contests. With the Week 15-16 traditional fantasy playoff schedule around the corner, fantasy owners hope Andre the Giant continues to produce at a championship pace.

Gary Kubiak fired after 61–64 record in eight years. Drama in D.C. Shanahan, RG3, Snyder in power struggle By NATHAN RUSH Athlon Sports Editor Not so long ago, Robert Griffin III and Mike Shanahan were taking the Washington Redskins to the playoffs and the biggest Scandal in D.C. was an ABC prime time drama starring Kerry Washington. Times have changed in the nation’s capital. Some are calling for an emergency midterm election — i.e. the Redskins’ first midseason coaching change since Norv Turner was fired by owner Daniel Snyder after 13 games in 2000. To be fair, Turner had been hired by the late, great Jack Kent Cooke in 1994 and was never Snyder’s “guy.” No, Snyder’s list of head coaching hires reads Marty Schottenheimer (2001), Steve Spurrier (2002-03), Joe Gibbs’ second term (2004-07, following his Hall of Fame stint from 1981-92), Jim Zorn (2008-09) and, drum roll please, Shanahan (2010-who knows?). Following a humiliating 45–10 blowout loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 14 — Washington’s 10th loss this season — Shanahan’s status is in doubt. Then again, so is the status of RG3, whom Shanahan claims may be benched for the final three games of the season as a health precaution. “We had 24 sacks in the last five games. That’s a lot,” Shanahan said. “I want to make sure he’s healthy. I think that’s the most important thing going into the offseason, that he has his first full offseason of being healthy. And if something did happen to him, I think it would set out franchise back.” Athlon Board of Experts This Week’s Games & Experts’ Records Chargers at Broncos (Thu.) Redskins at Falcons 49ers at Buccaneers Seahawks at Giants Eagles at Vikings Patriots at Dolphins Bills at Jaguars Texans at Colts Bears at Browns Chiefs at Raiders Jets at Panthers Packers at Cowboys Cardinals at Titans Saints at Rams Bengals at Steelers Ravens at Lions (Mon.) Athlon Sports Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III has 16 total TDs and 16 turnovers this season, compared to 27 total TDs and seven turnovers as a rookie last year. Griffin III famously suffered a devastating knee injury on Jan. 6 earlier this year and many have speculated that the 23-year-old former Heisman Trophy winner has still not returned to 100 percent. The numbers back that assertion. As a rookie, RG3 had 27 total TDs and seven turnovers while leading the Skins to a 10–6 record. This year, he has 16 total TDs and 16 turnovers with a miserable 3–10 record, including the team’s current five-game losing streak. Stats and losses are only part of the problem in Washington, where the cozy friendship between RG3 and his owner, Snyder, is under the microscope. Shanahan allegedly feels his power has been usurped by his young signal-caller and his relationship with Snyder may have been damaged beyond repair. Normally, a team in such bad shape can at least look forward to the upcoming NFL Draft. Washington, however, traded away its 2014 firstround pick to the St. Louis Rams as part of the bounty to acquire RG3 in 2012. “There’s always a lot of noise when you’re 3–10,” Shanahan said. “I understand that, and every organization has it. There’s going to be a lot more noise over the next few weeks.” Mitchell Light 138-69-1 Rob Doster 137-70-1 Nathan Rush 136-71-1 Steven Lassan 134-73-1 Mark Ross 133-74-1 Broncos by 10 Falcons by 1 49ers by 3 Seahawks by 13 Eagles by 7 Patriots by 3 Jaguars by 1 Colts by 7 Browns by 3 Chiefs by 2 Panthers by 7 Cowboys by 11 Cardinals by 1 Saints by 3 Steelers by 3 Lions by 3 Broncos by 7 Falcons by 3 49ers by 10 Seahawks by 7 Eagles by 6 Patriots by 3 Jaguars by 2 Colts by 6 Browns by 1 Chiefs by 9 Panthers by 10 Cowboys by 5 Cardinals by 1 Saints by 4 Bengals by 1 Lions by 2 Broncos by 14 Redskins by 1 49ers by 10 Seahawks by 7 Eagles by 9 Patriots by 4 Bills by 2 Colts by 10 Bears by 3 Chiefs by 7 Panthers by 14 Packers by 1 Titans by 3 Saints by 6 Bengals by 8 Ravens by 4 Broncos by 10 Falcons by 7 49ers by 9 Seahawks by 11 Eagles by 8 Patriots by 2 Bills by 3 Colts by 7 Bears by 4 Chiefs by 10 Panthers by 14 Cowboys by 6 Cardinals by 3 Saints by 4 Steelers by 3 Lions by 3 Broncos by 10 Falcons by 6 49ers by 10 Seahawks by 9 Eagles by 4 Dolphins by 1 Jaguars by 3 Texans by 1 Browns by 1 Chiefs by 10 Panthers by 10 Cowboys by 3 Cardinals by 1 Saints by 10 Bengals by 4 Ravens by 3 Consensus 137-70-1 Broncos by 10 Falcons by 3 49ers by 8 Seahawks by 9 Eagles by 7 Patriots by 2 Jaguars by 1 Colts by 6 Browns by 1 Chiefs by 8 Panthers by 11 Cowboys by 8 Cardinals by 1 Saints by 5 Bengals by 1 Lions by 1 San Diego at Denver 8:25 p.m. Washington San Francisco Seattle Philadelphia New England Buffalo Houston Chicago Kansas City N.Y.

But Manning didn’t have any problems in Week 10 this year, passing for 330 yards, four TDs and zero INTs during a 28–20 win at San Diego. The Broncos were a quick-strike offense that day, with scoring drives lasting 57 seconds, 1:25, 2:27 and 3:26, respectively. REDSKINS (3-10) AT FALCONS (3-10) One year ago, Washington and Atlanta hosted playoff games. How quickly a team can get caught in the undertow of NFL parity and flipped from first to worst in its division standings. 49ERS (9-4) AT BUCCANEERS (4-9) There are no moral victories in the NFL. A loss is a loss is a loss, obviously. But San Fran’s four defeats are at Seattle, Indianapolis, Carolina and at New Orleans — a quartet of teams with a combined 38–14 record this season. SEAHAWKS (11-2) AT GIANTS (5-8) Much has been made of Russell Wilson’s 14–0 career record at home in Seattle. Fewer Hawks fans are eager to bring up Wilson’s 5–5 mark (including playoffs) in the Eastern Time Zone. EAGLES (8-5) AT VIKINGS (3-9-1) The good news is it appears Adrian Peterson will not need surgery on his mid-foot sprain, which is not of the dreaded Lisfranc variety according to recent MRI results. The bad news is A.D. is in a walking boot and unlikely to play in Week 15, backup Toby Gerhart has a hamstring issue and third-string back Matt Asiata has three career carries for nine yards in 2012. PATRIOTS (10-3) AT DOLPHINS (7-6) New England beat Miami, 27–17, in Week 8. But the win was Tom Brady’s worst statistical game of the season, with season lows in completions (13), attempts (22) and passing yards (116). Brady’s 116 yards were his fewest since 2009. BILLS (4-9) AT JAGUARS (4-9) J-Ville has won four of its last five since coming back from London, where the Jags fell to 0–8 after a rock-bottom 32-point loss to the 49ers. TEXANS (2-11) AT COLTS (8-5) Indianapolis overcame a 21–3 halftime deficit to pull off a 27–24 win at Houston in Week 9. In three career games against the AFC South rival Texans, Luck has seven TDs and zero INTs. BEARS (7-6) AT BROWNS (4-9) Marc Trestman backs Jay Cutler as Chicago’s top QB, despite Josh McCown’s recent success. That’s nothing. Cleveland has had four guys throw TDs this season, including a punter. CHIEFS (10-3) AT RAIDERS (4-9) K.C. destroyed Oakland, 24–7, in Week 6, with the Chiefs D notching 10 sacks and three INTs. JETS (6-7) AT PANTHERS (9-4) The Cats’ top-ranked scoring defense (14.5 ppg) had not allowed more than two TDs in a single game until the Saints scored three times in one quarter during last week’s 31–13 loss — which was only the second time all season Carolina allowed 24 or more points. Meanwhile, the Jets have scored 14 or fewer points in seven games, including four games in single digits. PACKERS (6-6-1) AT COWBOYS (7-6) Obviously, the status of Aaron Rodgers is the giant cheese block in the room. But since even the doctor in charge isn’t sure of what to do about Title Town’s most valuable collarbone, let’s talk about Tony Romo’s 13–20 career record in December and January, instead. This rematch of the 1967 “Ice Bowl” will be awfully cold for the losing team in this must-win showdown. CARDINALS (8-5) AT TITANS (5-8) Bruce Arians beat Tennessee twice last season as the Colts interim coach, with a 19–13 win in Music City and a 27–23 victory at Indy. SAINTS (10-3) AT RAMS (5-8) New Orleans has marched to a 7–0 record at home and a 3–3 mark on the road. But St. Louis plays in a dome, where N’Awlins is 8–1. BENGALS (9-4) AT STEELERS (5-8) Andy Dalton has been unstoppable at home — with 14 TDs, five INTs and a perfect 6–0 record that includes victories over Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, Andrew Luck and Ben Roethlisberger. On the road, however, Dalton has been vulnerable — with 11 TDs, nine INTs and a 3–4 record that includes losses to Brian Hoyer, Jay Cutler and Ryan Tannehill. RAVENS (7-6) AT LIONS (7-6) Tampa-born, Dallas-raised and Georgia-educated Matthew Stafford is happy to be in a heated dome after last week’s blizzard in Baltimore. fever Visit our website to show your grasp of the gridiron for a chance to win great prizes!
