Chamber members advised on ‘fracking’ payouts
By Charlene Hoeflich

choeflich@mydailysentinel.com

POMEROY — With
many Meigs Countians
considering leasing of acreage for hydraulic fracturing
for oil and gas recovery
and anticipating large signon bonuses, the question
of guidance about how to
best handle a large amount
of money may arise.
With that in mind, the
Meigs County Chamber
of Commerce recently
brought in a financial adviser, who is also knowledgeable about government tax issues, to speak
at its March meeting.
Speaking on the subject
to Chamber members was

Ed Long, financial adviser
for Edward Jones located
in the Lafayette Center in
Marietta. Long said that
he began working with
families who had already
leased their land several
months ago to establish
estate plans which can conceivably retain money for
generations of families because of the leasing payout
and royalties.
“This is a real play, and
something is going to happen right here in Meigs
County,” said Long who
went on to explain that he
is not a geology man nor
a land man but a financial
adviser. He said he is currently working with the
Ohio Group which includes
Washington, Perry and

Athens to assist with financial advice.
Long talked about the
coming changes in fuel
products, not only here but
in other countries, as a result of what is happening
in Utica Shale in eastern
Ohio. Her described the oil
and gas retrieved will replace fossil fuels and create
a “renaissance in this area.”
He talked about Columbus
engineers who are working on compressing natural
gas to supply countries like
Japan which, he said, is
“phasing out nuclear and
going to gas turbines. We
will be exporting this energy,” he said.
He explained the fracking process, the use of
water and sand, the regula-

tions of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources,
and the landowners benefit.
Then he specifically
talked about the large
amount of money many
will receive, the tax ramifications, the revitalization it
will create in communities
and for businesses, and
how to handle the newfound wealth in a constructive way, like through estate planning.
Long noted that Edward
Jones has on staff a certified public accountant as
well as an estate planning
attorney. He encouraged
families to “be wise, have
a plan and know what you
want to do with the resources.”

Merchants embrace
free parking for
shoppers

Hodge creates rifle to honor coal miners
By Nathan Jeffers

njeffers@heartlandpublications.com

POINT PLEASANT — “We work in the
dark, so you can live in the light.”
This saying is very common among one
particular groups of people — coal miners.
While some may find this phrase to be somewhat humorous and witty, the everyday, and
sometimes unthought-of, use of electricity depends on the dedication of these individuals.
Boyd Hodge, a retired coal miner of Point
Pleasant, originally of Frazier’s Bottom, recently decided to do something to honor this
particular group of people. Hodge has been
working for 18 months and 16 days with
Henry Repeating Arms Company and has
designed a new .22LR — the Henry Golden
Boy Special Edition Coal Miner Tribute.
A special event to honor the launch of the
firearm has been set for 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, March 17 at Tri County Sports Shop.
According to owner John Burris, this new
firearm will not be available for purchase

POMEROY – After Monday, shoppers coming to
Pomeroy won’t have to pay
the meters if they park on
the upper side of the parking lot.
At the request of the
Pomeroy Merchants Association’s president, Dan
Short, Pomeroy Village
Council has agreed to free
the meters as a step toward
stimulating shopping in the
downtown area. The parking
meters will be “bagged” on
Monday. It was emphasized
that the freed meters are only
for shoppers — not store employees — and are available
to each shopper for up to two
hours.
If the two-month trial run
does what it is supposed to
do – increase the number of
shoppers coming here – then
consideration will be given to
extending the courtesy. However, Short said if others take
advantage of the free parking,
then it will probably not be
extended.
For a long time, merchants
have contended that the parking meters and the tickets
issued to shoppers have hindered business in Pomeroy.
Signs designating “Shoppers Only” will be going up,
and business owners are encouraged to advise their employees of the need to cooperate by not parking in the free
spaces.
While Short was at Council meeting, he discussed
the problem of getting the
holiday decorations up and
asked about assistance in

the future. He was assured of
help this year when the time
comes to hang the garlands
and put up the lights on the
numerous downtown period
light posts.
It was noted that Derek
Brickles is in the process of
organizing the summer farm
market and his concern is
about getting enough vendors to participate. Presently,
he has only five. He has proposed a Saturday morning
market instead of the Friday
night ones which were held
prior to the summer Rhythm
on the River programs.
Again this year, the Merchants Association will sponsor an Eastern Egg hunt on
the Pomeroy football field,
and Jenny Dunham will be
the chairman. It will be held
on the Saturday before Easter — April 7 — at 1 p.m.
As in years before, the field
will be divided into three sections for different age groups.
There will be small prizes for
all youngsters and larger prizes for the finders of the golden eggs. There will be one
golden egg in the designated
area for each age group.
The merchants voted to
provide $300 for the expense
of staging it. Volunteers will
be needed to assist in putting
out the eggs and handling
other activities in conjunction with the event. The
Easter bunny will be there to
greet the children.
It was noted that the 2012
Visitors Guides are in and
available at the Meigs County
Chamber of Commerce office.

Sheriff’s deputies
prepare for
Meth lab found in home of runaway boys St. Patrick’s Day Blitz

GLENWOOD — The
case of the runaway boys
from Glenwood took another twist when investigators
say they discovered a working methamphetamine lab
in the home the two brothers fled from on Monday.
Capt. Charlie Stearns
with the Mason County
Sheriff’s Department confirmed the working lab was
discovered, as were several
meth making materials, including pseudoephedrine.
The meth lab was reportedly found after a search warrant was issued for the resi-

pick-axe, an engraving of a coal miner, which was reported to be Boyd Hodge
himself, and a scroll with the words “Coal Miners United.”

dence on Old River Road on
Tuesday afternoon.
Stearns said no criminal
charges had been filed, yet,
though investigators were
working on a report about
the situation to then pass
on to Mason County Prosecuting Attorney Damon
Morgan for review. As for
the home the boys were living in, persons are prohibited from the property at
this time.
On Monday evening,
brothers Daniel Tucker,
15, and Jeremiah Austin,
9, went missing from their
backyard and were found
the next day at a neighbor’s
home on Guyan Creek Rd.,

a few ridges over from their
home, after spending the
night in the woods. They
were missing for nearly 18
hours, and a massive search
was undertaken by several
law enforcement agencies
to locate the duo.
Once the boys were found,
they were placed in the custody of the West Virginia
Department of Health and
Human Resources Tuesday
afternoon. A spokesperson
from the sheriff’s department said the boys decided
to runaway due to “family
issues.”
As for where the boys are
now, Stearns said it was his
understanding they were

placed with a relative in
Gallipolis, Ohio.
Southern Mason County
has unfortunately been
gaining unwanted notoriety
as of late due to a string of
meth lab busts in the area.
In the past two months,
there have been at least four
meth labs discovered in
Ashton, the latest of which
was discovered about two
weeks ago. About a month
ago, a meth lab was also
discovered in Pliny on the
Mason/Putnam
County
line. At least two of these
recent cases involved suspects who had prior arrests
for allegedly cooking meth.

Kim Grueser, Program Chairman,

used Leap Year as her topic. Julius Caesar introduces Leap Year in the Roman
Empire over 2,000 years ago, but the
Julian calendar had only one rule: any
year evenly divisible by four would be
Leap Year. This lead to way too many
Leap Years, but didn’t get corrected until the introduction of the Gregorian Calendar more than 1,500 years later. Leap
Years are needed to keep our calendar in
alignment with the Earth’s Revolutions
around the sun. Our next Leap Year will
be 2016.
Greuser also said, according to an
old Irish legend or possibly history, St.
Bridget struck a deal with St. Patrick to
allow women to propose to men — not
just the other way around — every four
years.
The April meeting will be proceeded
by a pork tenderloin dinner at 6:30 p.m.
All members are invited.

until that date, and it will be
introduced exclusively at Tri
County Sports Shop.
One particular reason
Hodge wanted to honor coal
miners is because he feels that
the only other time this group
of individuals are discussed
is, unfortunately, if there is
some kind of tragedy, such
as a mine collapse or explosion. He also reported on his
interest in guns. He said that
when he was five years old, he
would tag along with his father and brother, since he was
too young for a gun. He said
he received his first gun when
he was eight. He combined
his love for guns and the desire to honor coal miners, and
the end product is a new rifle.
Hodge said when he first
had the idea for the gun, he
contacted Henry Repeating
Arms and was turned down
twice. Hodge said he did
some research and came up
with his own version of the
gun. The company also had
its own version of the gun,
and Hodge said they had to
agree to disagree. But then,
the person from the company
Hodge had dealt with caught
a television program entitled
“COAL” one night. After seeing the show, which follows
coal miners and reportedly
covers every aspect of the
occupation, Hodge was contacted again and was told his
gun concept would be made a
reality.
According to Hodge, it
takes a special breed of people
to be coal miners — not only
the coal miners themselves,
but their families also have
to be very supportive, as well,
since there is always a chance
their families may never see
them again, because of the
dangers below.
“It’s
a
brotherhood,”
Hodge’s wife, Linda, said.
Hodge added that while
some miners might argue outside the mine, once they go
down into it, no one would be

left behind should something
unexpected happen.
Another personal touch
Hodge added to the gun was
his coal miner’s prayer. He
added that he said this prayer
every time before he went
into the portal, which is the
entrance to the mine. It is
engraved on the stock of the
rifle, and it reads:
Lord, as I enter this portal
of man-made darkness, keep
me safe from the dangers below, and bring me back to the
light of day. In this, oh Lord, I
pray, and if the worst should
happen, let my friends and
loved ones know that I did not
suffer on this … my final day.
Hodge will be at Tri County
Sports Shop on Saturday and
will be signing certificates of
authenticity for the first 100
guns. There will also be refreshments and door prizes.
It was also reported that
John Raese is planning to
attend the event and plans
to purchase one of the new
rifles. Raese will reportedly
take the rifle with him on his
campaign, as a tribute to coal
miners, as well as for support
for the second amendment.
“This is a tribute to coal
miners all over the world,”
Hodge said.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)
— A man accused of stabbing four people at a downtown office building before
he was shot on the street
by a police officer is being
charged with four counts of
felonious assault, authorities
said Thursday.
Authorities say a man
armed with three knives
entered a downtown office
building that housed a career
college and other offices on
Wednesday afternoon and
stabbed four men, the first
an employee of Miami-Jacobs
Career College.
Police named the suspect
as John W. Mallett, 37, who
lived in Nashville for 10 years
until a month ago when he
came to Columbus.
Columbus police spokesman Sgt. Rich Weiner said
the attack appeared random.
Mallett has no criminal record in Columbus.
An aunt in Columbus reported to police that she
thought the suspect was Mallett, Weiner said. She told
police he was mentally ill and
had been off his medications.
“We have no link as to why
he went there,” Weiner said.
Two of the victims worked
for the college, one was a student and another worked for
the attorney general’s office,
Weiner said.
Two victims and the suspect are in critical condition,
and a third victim is hospitalized in stable condition, authorities said. A fourth victim
has been released from the
hospital and returned to the
building to help officers with
their investigation.
A knife was recovered
inside the school, and two
knives were found near the
attacker outside after he had
been shot. Police wouldn’t
describe the knives except
to say they were bigger than
pocket knives.

One officer used a stun
gun on the attacker at around
the time another officer shot
him, Weiner said.
The attacker had a knife
in each hand when he went
at officers, said Jim Gilbert,
president of the local Fraternal Order of Police.
Multiple shots were fired
at the man by the officer who
was closest to him, Gilbert
said. The officer, who has
been on the police force for
15 years, “did what she had
to do,” Gilbert said.
Officer Deborah S. Ayers
was on her downtown patrol
assignment of a year and a
half when she got the call
and arrived first, followed
by numerous other officers,
Weiner said.
Columbus officers responded within a minute
of 911 calls Wednesday to
a “very chaotic scene” with
people screaming, Gilbert
said.
“Many citizens’ lives were
saved today because of the
quick actions, quick response
of the Columbus police officers that responded,” he said.
Ayers was taken to a hospital with a minor knee injury
suffered as she was backing
away when the attacker approached her, Weiner said.
Jason Jackson, who works
at Gordon’s Gourmet in
the building lobby, said he
heard that someone had been
stabbed, so he ran out of the
building. When he went back
to see what was happening,
he saw the attacker outside.
“He had a knife, and the
police had just pulled up,
and they’re saying, ‘Sir, you
need to stop. You need to
just put the knife down.’ He
wouldn’t,” said Jackson, of
Reynoldsburg. “They drew
guns. ‘Sir, please put the knife
down.’ And he kind of lunged
at them, so they shot him.”

How would Jesus be received here at home?

I have a question for you:
… “If on any given day Jesus walked the streets of
Pomeroy—or Middleport,
Gallipolis, etc., etc.—what
would he observe and how
might he be received?”
Perhaps you’ve wondered
the same thing. Maybe he’s
already been here and done
that! Certainly there are
those who whole-heartedly
subscribe to this idea.
They would be followers of Joseph Smith, who
is credited with establishing The Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-Day Saints
(a.k.a., The Mormons).
In the year 1820, while a
resident of New York State,
Smith claimed to have experienced the manifestation
of both God the Father and
God the Son, who commissioned him to restore true
Christianity in the world.
There’s more. At some
later point, in Pennsylvania, Smith is supposed to
have been baptized, along

with an associate, by John
the Baptist — sent by Peter, James, and John — to
confer upon Smith and this
same associate the Old
Testament “Aaronic Priesthood.”
These are a few details
excerpted from the history
of The Mormons. Meanwhile, has anybody seen Jesus pounding the pavement
here in Pomeroy?!?
Would we want to? Do
we want Him around? Do
we really want him to come
back?!?
We’re talking about someone who, most assuredly,
was NOT the incarnation of
Dale Carnegie! Jesus didn’t
come with a divine mandate
to “win friends and influence people.”
He managed to do both;
sometimes with the approval of others, other times
not. It seems to be a matter
of record that Jesus alienated at least as many people
as he befriended!

Take the time to rest
and reflect

For those of you who
normally read my column, you may have wondered where I have been
the past couple of weeks.
Well, I was really sick
with pneumonia. At first
I thought it was the flu,
but it wasn’t. I thought if
I rested and drank enough
fluids, I would be ok. Well,
my stubborness in not
wanting to go the doctor
paid off with a four day
“vacation” in the hospital.
Thankfully, I am well now.
While I was resting in
the hospital, I listened.
I listened to those who
were taking care of me,
and I listened to God. I
also listened to my body.
Burning the candle at both
ends had to stop.
One of the most difficult
things I find to do as a pastor and just as me, is to
relax. I constantly think of
something else to be done.
Between family, church
and community, I am always fairly well booked.
During my “vacation” and
the days that followed, I

Carrie Wolfe
Pastor

had to learn to relax and
rest. Wait a minute …
didn’t God say something
about resting? Hmmm …
Yes, I am learning to
rest. To take that Sabbath
time to enjoy just laughing
with my family (or even
by myself) and have quiet
times. I used to do that
more, but when you have a
mind that is always racing
with thoughts, it isn’t easy.
It is necessary for us
to rest though. Why else
would God include it in

the commandments? Maybe your work schedule is
different. It doesn’t matter
when you rest, only that
you do take the time to do
so. Everything will still be
there for you. It won’t go
anywhere.
Have a cup of tea, watch
an old movie, curl up with
a good book, listen to the
birds sing — but give
yourself the gift of time
without
expectations
and aggravations.
For me, I have started
feeding the birds. I have
two, beautiful Downey
woodpeckers,
several
finch and other birds
coming to the feeders.
I can sit at our dining
room table and watch
the birds. It is incredibly
relaxing and entertaining. Do yourself a favor,
cut yourself some slack,
and enjoy yourself just
resting. The work of
the Kingdom will still
be there when you are
ready, and do remember
to live a life of Grace Out
Loud.

Step to stronger faith
with five easy steps
The common complaint among many in the
Church is that their faith
seems so weak so much
of the time. These often
point to Christians who
exhibit great faith, and
say something to the effect, “I wish I had the
strong faith they have.”
Well, now you can have
that stronger faith which
has eluded you through
those dark moments of
uncertainty in your life.
No longer will you have to
feel spiritually weak and
spindly when controversy
confronts you. No longer
will you have to stand
doubtful to what it takes
to have faith.
Stronger faith does not
require some sort of elaborate spiritual formula.
You do not have to agonize or exercise through
a complicated religiousbased ritual. Utilizing
the Scriptural evidence
found in Romans 4, five
easy steps for stronger
faith are clarified. As you
incorporate each step
in your experience with
God, you will be amazed
at the spiritual results for
quality Christian living
like you have never before
experienced.
The first easy step for
stronger faith is simply
this — remember your
salvation
experience.
Every person’s salvation
experience is a faith response to God’s offer for
eternal redemption. By
faith, one recognizes their
sinful status before God,
and requests forgiveness.
By faith, one receives
the redemptive work and
Lordship of Jesus Christ.
Therefore, since God enabled you to have faith for
salvation, it then follows
logically that there is the

Ron Branch
Pastor

potential for strong faith
for every day and for every need. In other words,
you did it before, you can
do it again!
Second,
reciprocate
God’s open plan for every
Christian to have strong
faith. According to Apostle Paul, strong faith was
not only for Abraham,
but for those “who also
walk in the steps of that
faith.” Strong faith is not
reserved for super saints.
But, if there is such a matter as super saints, it is
firmly based on the fact
that such saints seize the
opportunity to practice
faith provided and presented to all by God. In
other words, since God
has an open-door policy
for you to have strong
faith, seize the day!
The third easy step calls
on you to simply reflect
on the heroes of faith. Ruminate on Abraham, who
“was strong in faith.” Read
Hebrews 11, which contains the Bible’s version
of a Faith Hall of Fame.
Recreate meditatively the
accounts of their victorious experiences because
of their strong faith. In
other words, if they could
do it, then you can, too!

Fourth, stronger faith is
easily attained when you
refer to the promises of
God. After all, Paul points
out that Abraham “staggered not at the promise
of God.” God gives us so
many promises you cannot beat it with a stick.
For example, God promises His presence, “I will
never leave thee.” God
promises His protection,
“I am thy shield.” God
promises His providence,
“I know the thoughts
that I think toward you,
thoughts of peace, and
not of evil.” God promises
His purposes, “All things
work together for good
to them that love God.”
God even promises His
pampering, “Come unto
me, all ye that labor and
are heavy laden, and I will
give you rest.” These, and
others, are described as
“exceedingly great and
precious promises,” all
of which give solid bases
for strong faith. The Lord
gives us every reason to
trust Him. Why should we
make up reasons not to?
The fifth easy step for
settling the concern for
stronger faith simply calls
on you to rehearse the
passion of Christ, “who
was delivered for our offenses, and was raised
again for our justification.” He did it to deliver
us from damnation, doubt
and despair. But, let us
not forget that all that He
did was faith-based, too,
most supremely verified
when He prayed to His
Father in the garden, “Not
my will, but thine, be
done.” Rehearse His faith.
Then, reverse your doubt!
Step to stronger faith
today. It is really that
simple.

denied. There would be no
more “business as usual.”
Foremost on their minds
was revenge.
Did Jesus care he had offended them? Not according to Matthew, Mark, Luke
or John.
But, then — why would
he?!? What the Jews took
for granted Jesus knew as
his “Father’s house,” a place
meant for the worship of Almighty God.
The Gospel’s are agreed
in their condemnation of
those responsible for the
maintenance and preservation of The Temple for this
purpose, but who instead
had betrayed their sacred
trust. They conveniently
re-imagined their “official”
job description to include
certain loopholes and perks,
thereby enabling them to
significantly enhance their
own livelihood.
In so doing they trespassed against the Lord.
Honestly, The Bible doesn’t

condemn anyone for making
an honest living; to the contrary, this is encouraged—
profit and all. What is condemned, in the Bible and by
Christ, is corruption, graft
and greed, and the exploitation of innocent others.
This is the despicable phenomenon Jesus observed
when en route to Jerusalem,
where he knew he was going
to be crucified. I’m inclined
to think Jesus went to the
Temple to worship God, a
special activity that was always near and dear to his
heart.
Obviously, he first needed
to “clean house”— and so he
did! Fruitful and meaningful
worship is not possible when
true piety is displaced by
self-serving scams; neither
can I conceive of anything
more vulgar to God than a
performance masquerading
as one’s worship of Him.
May God’s Spirit inspire
our worship, that it always is
sincere and sacrificial.

A Hunger for More
A “Christian” who does
not put into practice the
truth of God as the Holy
Spirit works invisibly inside him, reminds me a lot
of the chick of the cowbird,
which, my children once
informed me, is a “brood
parasite” (a lot like the European Cuckoo). With great
indignation, my children described to me how this little
villain of the avian world
(its scientific name being
“Molothrus ater”) mooches
off of other birds by sneaking into nests in which eggs
have been laid. Unlike most
birds, the cowbird can lay
an egg in lightning speed
and be gone before the
owners return from finding
food. The cowbird is so cunning that it will even push
out one or more of the original eggs in order to increase
the likelihood of success.
The egg will hatch and the
cowbird chick will live with
the other chicks eating their
food, and frequently becoming so aggressive that it will
starve the others by eating
their share. Indeed, they
will even kick out other
eggs or young birds in order
to be the only one benefiting from the parent birds’
care! And when they grow
up, do they have any sense
of loyalty to the birds which
raised them? No, they fly
away to find others of their
own kind, eventually laying
eggs of their own in other
birds’ nests.
The counterpart that
we could find in the
Christian world are those
who like being a part of
a society of Christians
(who are, after all, commanded to be loving), but
have no intention of being fruitful parts of their
respective corners of the
Kingdom of God. Don’t
miss the point that people who generally fall into
this category don’t regard
themselves as doing so.
You and I must understand that as God invests
in us His forgiveness and
promises of grace, that
we are not redeemed to
serve ourselves but to be
agents of devotion to our
God. God, Who did not
spare us His Own Son, intends our priorities, our
passions, and our lives
to be beacons of hope for
those who are spiritually
perishing. If you and I are
living selfishly, what can
be done? How can I turn
the light of Christ from
being merely a benefit to
myself towards driving
away the darkness spun
by tendrils of pride, lust,
hate, envy, greed, and despair?
“Here is a trustworthy
saying that deserves full
acceptance: Christ Jesus
came into the world to
save sinners – of whom I

Thom Mollohan
Pastor

am the worst. But for that
very reason I was shown
mercy so that in me, the
worst of sinners, Christ
Jesus might display His
unlimited patience as an
example for those who
would believe on Him and
receive eternal life. Now
to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only
God, be honor and glory
for ever and ever. Amen”
(1 Timothy 1:15-17).
The truth of God has
the enormous capacity
to change your life! Consider the potential for
spiritual fruit and kingdom growth if the meat
of your trust in Christ is
fleshed out in experience!
For one who lives his or
her life with the conviction that God is in loving
and gracious control, the
future holds little power for terror! Even if it
seems in doubt due to illness, financial instability,
relationship breakdowns,
or those pivotal moments
when we stand at crossroads wherein our next
decision sets the course
of the rest of our lives
and possibly the lives of
others, that which will
yet come to pass can only
ultimately end in blessing!
So let us be cautious in
how we handle such mercies as they are rained
down upon us! It is entirely possible to “miss
the point” of the grace of
God and continue to live
our lives in self-centered
abandonment. It is even
possible to actively participate in “religious”
activities, siphoning off
the provisions of God’s
mercies as though we
were spiritual chicks of
the cowbird, keeping the
promises of God for ourselves and not permitting
them to fulfill their purposes within us by failing
to channel such blessings
through us into the lives
of others!
What a shame when
those who are called
“Christian” never see a
harvest of the fruit of the
Kingdom of God in their
lives, “… having a form
of godliness but deny-

ing its power… the kind
who worm their way into
homes and gain control
over (the weak-willed),
who are loaded down
with sins and are swayed
by all kinds of evil desires, always learning but
never able to acknowledge the truth” (2 Timothy 3: 5a, 6-7). And how
much greater the tragedy
if and when such spiritual
selfishness on our parts
were to displace one in
whom God’s truth would
indeed bring fruit!
But this does not need
to be so if we’ll trustingly
follow God and obey His
Word in the living of our
lives and in the making
of our choices. “…Continue in what you have
learned and have become
convinced of (in regard
to the Bible)… and how…
you have known the holy
Scriptures, which are
able to make you wise for
salvation through faith in
Christ Jesus. All Scripture is God-breathed and
is useful for teaching,
rebuking, correcting and
training in righteousness, so that the man (or
woman) of God may be
thoroughly equipped for
every good work” (2 Timothy 3:14-17).
Let the Word of God
yank the reins of your life
from your hands and put
them into the hands of
God. What does His Word
have to say about how you
live your life? What does
it have to say about your
plans? What about your
habits or even your relationships? Is God’s truth
being “fleshed out” in
your decisions? Your actions? Your attitudes? Let
us be stricken to the core
of our being by the goodness that God has shown
us and let us love Him
for it. Let that love turn
our hands into faithful
instruments of God’s love
in the world today. Let
us “fight the good fight
of faith and take hold of
the eternal life to which
we were called” when we
placed our faith in Christ
Jesus, and let us “lay up
treasure for ourselves as
a firm foundation for the
coming age, so that we
may take hold of the life
that is truly life” (from 1
Timothy 6:12 and 19).

Buckeyes still smarting from last year’s NCAA
exitMichigan confident Trey Burke will bounce back
PITTSBURGH (AP) —
Ohio State has four sophomore starters and one bad
NCAA tournament memory.
The Buckeyes were
knocked out of last year’s
tournament in the regional
semifinals by a jumper by
Kentucky’s Brandon Knight
with 5 seconds to play. A
No. 1 seed last year, the
Buckeyes felt their season
ended way too soon.
A No. 2 seed this year,
Ohio State starts a run at
a 10th Final Four when it
plays 15th-seeded Loyola
(Md.) on Thursday night

in the second round of the
East Regional.
“I just think it affected
everyone a little differently
last year,” sophomore guard
Aaron Craft said. “Everyone kind of took a step back
and felt what they could do
to make the game change.
At the same time I think we
did a good job of trying to
move on. We can’t live in
the past. Figure out a way
to help this basketball team
be better, because it’s not
the same as last year.”
The Buckeyes (27-7)
were a tri-champion of the
Big Ten this season. Loyola

(24-8) finished second in
the Metro Atlantic Athletic
Conference and won the
conference tournament to
seal its second NCAA tournament berth, 22 behind
the Buckeyes.
“I know what a great
team Ohio State is. It’s an
honor to play them,” Greyhounds coach Jimmy Patsos said. “We probably have
little chance of winning the
game. Four minutes at a
time, we’ll see what we can
do.”
Ohio State’s Jared Sullinger was a first-team AllAmerica last season as a

freshman. He averaged 17.6
points and 9.3 rebounds
this season while earning
All-Big Ten honors.
“In March you enter the
tournament, records go out
the door. It’s not about what
conference they’re from,”
Sullinger said. “Doesn’t
matter what is the record.
Everybody is fighting for
their life. We got to understand that tomorrow is not
a promise. I think that’s the
biggest motto this basketball team has to embrace is:
Tomorrow’s not a promise.”
Sullinger sounded like
someone who believes that

when he talks about Loyola,
which had the first 20-win
season in school history in
2011-12.
“They’re a very athletic
basketball team. They like
to get up and down the
floor. Love transition,” Sullinger said. “A lot of guys
can score the basketball for
them. I mean, they have
five guys averaging double
figures so they’re a very
balanced team. One person
is not going to beat us. It’s
a team effort. We have to
stop everybody.”
That’s what Patsos is
afraid of.

“We’ll still run and press
against them,” said Patsos,
a longtime assistant to former Maryland coach Gary
Williams. “Ohio State wants
to play their way. If you play
their way, you’re not going
to beat them. I think they
can win the national championship this year.”
Thad Matta has taken
the Buckeyes to the NCAA
tournament six times in
his eight seasons, and they
have reached the round of
16 three times, including
the national runner-up finish in 2007.

Improved Alston Bills sign free-agent DE Williams to 6-year deal
wins her 2nd Ms.
Basketball award

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)
— As good as she was
a year ago in capturing
The Associated Press Ms.
Basketball award in Ohio,
believe it or not Ameryst
Alston got even better.
As a result, the Canton
Mckinley star becomes only
the fourth player to ever
win the prestigious award
twice.
“I’ve matured,” she said
of the changes just from a
year ago to now. “I’ve grown
my all-around game and as
far as being a leader and
everything else. Such as being able to help mentor the
freshmen on our team, being a better leader on the
floor and off the floor.”
The four-time All-Ohioan
averaged 25.2 points a game
this season (up from 21.0
the season before), and also
provided 5 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 2.1 steals a game

while shooting 49.2 percent
from the field and 75 percent at the free-throw line.
The 5-foot-9 guard became Stark County’s alltime scoring leader with
2,032 points while leading
McKinley to four district,
two regional and the 2010
state championship.
She joins Vonda Ward of
Garfield Heights Trinity
(1990-91), Trinity’s Semeka Randall (1996-97) and
Mason’s Michelle Munoz
(2000-01) as the only multiple winners of the award,
which is determined in voting by a state media panel.
Alston’s coach at Mckinley, Pam Davis, has seen
how she has grown.
“I think I don’t think, I
know she improved in every statistical category from
a year ago,” she said. “She

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) —
Free agent defensive end Mario Williams says he was so nervous when it
came time to sign his contract with
the Buffalo Bills, he almost forgot
his name.
No one in Buffalo will soon forget.
Williams was introduced at a news
conference Thursday after signing a
contract touted as the richest ever
given to an NFL defensive player a
deal worth up to $100 million with
$50 million guaranteed, according to
his agent, Ben Dogra.
The deal was agreed to Thursday
afternoon after two days of talks.
Williams had been in Buffalo since
the NFL’s free agency period opened
Tuesday, having been flown in from
his home in North Carolina.
The start of Williams’ news conference was delayed a little more
than two hours. Without being specific, team spokesman Scott Berchtold apologized for the delay, saying
there were details still being worked
out.
Selected first overall in the 2006
draft by Houston, Williams had a
franchise-best 53 sacks in six seasons with the Texans.
Listed at 6-foot-6 and 285 pounds,
the pass rusher is a two-time Pro

Bowl starter, and set a single-season
team record with 14 sacks in 2007.
Williams was limited to playing just
five games last season as a result of
a torn chest muscle. He also missed
three games in 2010 after having
surgery to repair a sports hernia.
After quarterback Peyton Manning, Williams has been regarded as
one of the top free agents available
this offseason.
The Bills regarded improving
their pass rush as their top offseason
priority after managing just 29 sacks
last season 10 of them coming in one
game.
Williams spent Tuesday night
dining with team management and
coaches at a downtown restaurant.
After taking a physical and touring the Bills facility on Wednesday
morning, Williams was joined by his
fiance, who traveled to Buffalo and
was provided a tour of the region.
The Williams signing comes at a
hefty price for a small-market team
that has hit hard times since its Jim
Kelly-led heyday in the early 1990s.
The Bills were 6-10 last season and
have missed the playoffs for 12
straight years the NFL’s longest active drought.
But Bills management pledged

to be aggressive in free agency this
offseason and now they’ve added a
cornerstone for defensive coordinator Dave Wannstedt.
Williams joins a new-look defense
that’s making the switch to a four
linemen-three linebackers scheme
under Wannstedt, who was promoted to his post in January. Williams
will fit at the right defensive end
position, playing alongside tackles
Kyle Williams and Marcell Dareus.
Williams is a two-time Pro Bowl
player, who is expected to be fully
healthy after having surgery to repair a nagging foot injury. Dareus,
the third player picked in last year’s
draft, is coming off a promising
rookie season in which he led the
Bills with 5-1/2 sacks.
Chris Kelsay, a 10-year veteran,
is expected to start at left defensive
end.
Injuries and inexperience contributed heavily to the Bills defensive
struggles. Buffalo finished 26th in
the NFL in yards allowed and 30th
in points allowed. Buffalo gave up
400-plus yards offense eight times
last year, including a five-game run.
The 5,938 yards allowed were a
franchise worst. And the 434 points

Texas, Bearcats grow up on path to NCAA tourney
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP)
— With six freshmen, Texas
coach Rick Barnes planned
on the Longhorns needing
more than one year to come
of age.
He didn’t figure to use that
as an excuse to miss out on
the NCAA tournament.
“I think we were in a lot of
learning situations, and we
told them we would never use
the fact that being a freshman
team is an excuse because you
go back to last year’s national
champion
(Connecticut).
They started four freshmen.
We can’t use that,” Barnes
said Thursday.
And the Longhorns didn’t.
Instead, they grew up quickly
and earned the program’s
14th consecutive NCAA bid.
The 11th-seeded Longhorns
will face No. 6 seed Cincinnati Friday in the second round
in the East region.
The Bearcats know a
thing or two about growing
up. Their progress wasn’t as
much about age as it was maturity.

Cincinnati was without junior guard JaQuon Parker for
the first seven games because
of a groin injury and suffered
three early season losses.
That included the 76-53 romp
by Xavier better known for
the trash talking and bloody
brawl between the teams.
“We had to take some losses and get embarrassed and
have our season really be put
on the brink of extinction,”
Bearcats coach Mick Cronin
said. “I give all the credit to
our players because it was at
that point that the leadership
on our team basically said,
‘We’re going to start playing
hard, we’re going to buy into
hustle, rebound, defense,
toughness and play hard
enough to win.”
Cincinnati (24-10) responded to the embarrassment by winning 10 of its
next 11 games and defeated
a nation-leading seven ranked
teams this season including
No. 2 Syracuse in the Big
East tournament semifinals.
The Bearcats lost 50-44 to

Louisville in the tournament
championship.
“Our back was against the
wall. We were shorthanded
and had to make it all work
once the suspended guys got
back,” said senior forward
Yancy Gates, whose six-game
suspension was the harshest
of the punishments doled out
after the brawl. “I think we
pretty much found our way.”
The Longhorns (20-13)
found themselves shorthanded nearly a year ago after losing all five starters from the
2010-11 team that finished
second in the Big 12.
When offseason workouts
started there were a grand
total of three players seniors
Alexis Wangmene and Clint
Chapman and junior J’Covan
Brown. Barnes eventually
added six freshmen and a pair
of walk-ons.
“Some of the workouts
weren’t good, but we just had
to find ways to put it together,
and these six freshmen we
battle with every day,” Brown
said. “They’re a great group

of guys and work hard. I think
the outcome shows that they
wanted to do whatever it
takes to win games.”
Having Brown around sure
hasn’t hurt. The guard leads
the Big 12 in scoring with
20.1 points per game, hitting
41.7 percent of his shots and
36.7 percent from 3-point
range.
Brown has been his best
in some of the Longhorns’
biggest games this season,
logging 24 points, seven assists, six rebounds and three
steals against No. 7 Kansas
on Jan. 21 and 32 points and
five assists against No. 6 Baylor on Jan. 28. In three career
NCAA tournament games,
Brown has averaged 21.3
points while converting 29-of31 free throws.
“I don’t think people really
understand how hard it is to
score 20 points a night, night
in and night out or do what he
Chuck Myers/MCT photo
does,” Barnes said. “I can assure you that every team that Cincinnati head coach Mick Cronin directs his team during
we played this year, he has second-half action against Georgetown at the Verizon Center in

From Page 6

“They only play six or seven guys. I feel like we can
run them. They try to slow
the game down. We try to
speed it up. Hopefully that
will work in our advantage.”
Patsos expanded on his
statement about the Greyhounds having little chance
to win.
“I think we have a chance,
though, I do, because if we
get the game going fast, we
have a chance,” Patsos said.
“If they put us in the meat
grinder and go slow, Sullinger goes to work, you can
call me at 4-1-0. I’ll be in
Baltimore Friday by noon.”
Loyola is on a one-game
winning streak against the
Big Ten, having beaten Indiana 72-67 on Dec. 22, 2002.
Its other NCAA appearance
was as a 15 seed in 1994
when the Greyhounds lost
81-55 to Arizona.
None of that matters to
Sullinger whose mind is
still on last year and that
heartbreaking loss to Kentucky.
“I think we understand
we thought we worked

pretty hard last year and
thought we had a good
mindset, and we still came
up short,” he said. “Just understanding, you know, it’s
a whole other level, but it
can be a lot of fun and hopefully we can enjoy this.”
ANN ARBOR, Mich.
(AP) Trey Burke looked
like a different player in
the Big Ten semifinals last
weekend one the Michigan
Wolverines don’t expect to
see again anytime soon.
Burke went 1 for 11 from
the field and turned the
ball over eight times in a
blowout loss to Ohio State
on Saturday, but with the
NCAA tournament about
to start, Michigan is dismissing that performance
as an isolated off night.
For most of his freshman
season, Burke has played
splendidly, taking over the
point guard duties from
Darius Morris and leading
the Wolverines to the top of
the Big Ten with poise and
flair.
“He’s as solid as they
come. I have no doubt that

he’ll bounce back and be
more than all right,” teammate Zack Novak said.
“I haven’t said anything
to him since probably we
went to Maui (in November) about getting ready for
an environment. He’s not
fazed by anything.”
Burke certainly hasn’t
been intimidated by his
crucial role at Michigan.
Morris became a star last
season for the Wolverines,
then left for the NBA. With
a vacancy at point guard,
coach John Beilein turned
over the reins to the 5-foot11 Burke, a Columbus,
Ohio, product who left
his home state to come to
Michigan.
“He had just an incredible freshman year,” Beilein
said. “He’s such a good
player and he really understands the game, and he
understands the ebbs and
flows of his performances.”
What Burke lacks in size
he more than makes up
for with quickness, and
he shoots more 3-pointers
than Morris did, making

him a good fit for Beilein’s
perimeter-oriented offense.
The Ohio State game was
only the fourth time this
season Burke was held under 10 points. He averages
14.8 points and 4.6 assists
per game.
Defensively, he’s athletic
enough to match up with
other top point guards like
Wisconsin’s Jordan Taylor. Burke leads Michigan
in steals and even blocked
shots.
The Wolverines finished
in a three-way tie for the
Big Ten regular-season
title with Michigan State
and Ohio State, but they
fell short in the conference
tournament, looking overmatched in a 77-55 loss to
the Buckeyes. Burke was
blunt the following day in
his assessment.
“We felt like we got
exposed (Saturday) and
we did,” he said. “After
each loss this year, we’ve
bounced back three times
harder.”
Michigan hasn’t lost
back-to-back games all sea-

son, and the Wolverines
did split with Ohio State
during the regular season.
Burke scored a team-high
17 points in a 56-51 victory
over the Buckeyes on Feb.
18.
When the teams met
again last weekend, Burke
couldn’t get untracked
against Aaron Craft and
the Ohio State defense, but
Beilein isn’t about to panic
over that one game.
“I watched the video on
the way back. Ohio State
is extremely talented,”
Beilein said. “I don’t know
what you guys think of Aaron Craft, just watching the
little things that he does, I
think we saw some things
that we have to just continue to improve as a team.”
The Wolverines are confident Burke will bounce
back, and there’s been no
evidence of a protracted
slump. In the Big Ten quarterfinals the game before
Ohio State Burke scored a
career-high 30 points in an
overtime victory over Minnesota.

“We’re averaging 27 wins
in eight years,” Matta said.
“I think from the standpoint of going to the NCAA
tournament, we’ve been a
1 seed twice, we’ve been a
2 seed three times, then I
think an 8 seed. From the
standpoint of who we’ve recruited, the type of kid that
we’ve brought in, the character of those kids, how
they’ve represented the
program and the university
probably most importantly,
I’m very excited where we
are and the direction we’re
heading in.”
The Loyola players believe they have a shot at a
major upset if the Greyhounds can control the tempo. They want to run, even
though it didn’t look that
way in the 48-44 win over
Fairfield in the conference
championship game.
“When I look at them,
they’re not very deep,” said
6-10 Shane Walker, who
will probably get the assignment of guarding Sullinger.

CONCEPTIS SUDOKU
by Dave Green

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday,
March 16, 2012:
This year you visualize and, for
the most part, manifest your desires.
Make sure you really want what you
wish for; otherwise, there could be a
problem. You have a unique gentleness about you that attracts many
people. If you are single, you could be
dating a lot and could meet someone
special in the next six months. If you
are attached, as a couple you need
to visualize a long-term goal. The
process of making it real will bond
you even more closely. Count on
CAPRICORN.
The Stars Show the Kind of Day
You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive;
3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
HHH Hedge your bets, but also follow your instincts. You will stay on top
of work, a community effort or other
situation. You’ll see rewards come
forward for a job well done. Don’t hem
and haw; instead, make fun plans.
Tonight: A must appearance.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
HHHH A meeting helps center
you. You see beyond the immediate.
Through associates and detachment,
you visualize a fuller picture. Your
efforts are greatly appreciated. You
feel so much more connected. Invite a
friend to join you after work. Tonight:
Let the good times roll.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
HHHHH You are full of fun and
life. You have a way of letting someone know exactly what your expectations are. At this moment in time, the
response is likely to be positive and
upbeat. Be careful about a new person you meet today. Tonight: Spend
time with a special person.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
HHHHH Someone feels strongly
about you and what you have to offer.
You could be confused about your
options. Think carefully about what
could happen if you just relax. Be
aware that someone is giving you notso-subtle hints. Tonight: Sort through
invitations.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
HHH You have a lot of ground to
cover. Your follow-through helps a
key person. He or she appreciates
your respect and ability to get the job
done. You could be up for a promotion or change of title. You are being
noticed within your immediate circle.
Tonight: Join a friend for TGIF.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

HHHHH Clearly, the weekend
holds more interest than the present.
Still, toss yourself 110 percent into
whatever you are doing. You will feel
better about yourself, and the results
will reflect this intensity. Touch base
with a loved one. Tonight: Christen
the weekend in style.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
HHH You might decide to take
off early or work from home today,
if you are not lucky enough to take
the whole day off. You find a partner
unusually appealing. Maintain your
focus on what you must do in order
to make more time for fun. Tonight:
Head home and make some calls.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
HHHH Open up to suggestions.
Avoid screening calls, if possible. You
will get more done than you thought
possible. At the same time, catch up
on others’ news. An invitation to a
late lunch could wind up being a good
segue into the weekend. Let it happen. Tonight: Be open.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHH Be aware of the damages
you might create by making an impulsive financial decision. Sometimes
making a nurturing gesture can mean
as much as buying an appropriate
gift. Express your caring according to
your budget. Tonight: Try not to kiss
self-discipline goodbye.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
HHHH You are in your element
right now, so zero in on an important
matter. Others are much more likely
to come forward and express their
support. You could be hard to stop.
Don’t forget to touch base with a child
or loved one. Tonight: The action surrounds you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
HHH Once more, count on your
sixth sense. Others might have different opinions. The problem lies in
that each of you is sure you are right.
Be less rigid, and work with different
ideas. See where another person is
coming from. Tonight: Make the most
of the moment.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
HHHHH Zero in on what is important. Please don’t sell yourself short.
Investigate an opportunity or offer.
Return calls. You might be delighted
by how upbeat others are. You finally
can have a discussion that you have
been putting off. Tonight: At a favorite
spot with favorite people.

was one of two returning
starters from our last year’s

herself to her conditioning

But that’s just what she
contributed while on the

3.2 GPA, also nurtured the
younger players on a young
team.
“We had two starting
freshmen,” Davis said.
“She was a mentor to those
young girls, explaining how
difficult our schedule was

going to bring. Just really
kind of guiding them.”

“It seems like it went by
so quick,” she said.
Davis hates to see her go,
but also knows Alston must
move on.
“It’s bittersweet. She’s
had a great career. But this
is kind of the platform to
jump-start into another
phase of her life,” the coach
said. “I’m just glad I’m going to be able to watch her
on the Big Ten Network.”

At the Buffalo Sabres
NHL game against Colorado on Wednesday, chants
of “We want Mar-io!” were
heard throughout the arena.
On Thursday morning,
cars could be heard honking

as they passed by Ralph Wilson Stadium. There were
many fans who also showed
up in the stadium parking
lot looking for a chance to
get a glimpse of Williams,
or simply to be near their

double-doubles.
It’s the maturity and commitment and toughness Gates
and the rest of the Bearcats
have come to show down the
stretch of the season that will
help them make a run in the
tournament, Cronin said. But
just in case his players had
forgotten that, he took them
into Fifth Third Arena before
leaving for Nashville to gaze
at the two NCAA championship banners hanging from
the rafters.

“If we don’t win, it’s our
own fault. It’s because we’re
not tough enough,” Cronin
said. “We’ve got enough talent. We’ve got more wins
over ranked opponents than
anybody in the country. I just
think you’ve got to believe
that you can win it, and I
think my guys need to realize that it’s possible, and it’s
happened at the University
of Cincinnati. We’ve got to
believe that it’s going to happen again.”

“It was definitely a lot of
pressure,” Alston said. “I
just did what I did.”
From a solid basketball
family her father coached
her in youth and middle
school, her mother played
at Mckinley and her older
brother played at Canton
Timken she was strong
enough to handle it all.
Because of the support
she got from her family and
the Stark County area, she
found a special way to repay them. She is headed to
Ohio State this fall to play
basketball.
“It was family and my
community. I want everybody who’s been supporting
me in high school, I want
them to be able to get out
to a game,” she said. “Not
only that, but the program
was great, and it’s a great
school as well.”
Alston said she regrets
losing in the regional tournament this year and that
it’s been frustrating just
sitting around while other
teams geared up for big
games. Her senior season
