A3 50 cents daily FRIDAY, AUGUST 31, 2012 Vol. 62, No. 148 Ohio texting ban takes effect today Sarah Hawley shawley@heartlandpublications.com OHIO VALLEY — A ban on texting while driving goes into effect today throughout the state of Ohio. On June 1, Governor John Kasich signed House Bill 99 into law, banning the use of some electronic devices while behind the wheel of a car. For drivers over the age of 18, it will be illegal to use a handheld electronic wireless communications device to write, send or read a text message while driving. A violation will be a minor misdemeanor which could result in a fine of up to $150. For adults, texting will be a secondary offense, meaning the driver would have to be pulled over for another offense such as speeding in order to receive a ticket for texting. The law is stricter for drivers under the age of 18. Drivers under the age of 18 are prohibited to use any electronic wireless communications device while driving. This includes texting or talking on cell phones, Bluetooth, Bluetooth speakers, On-Star or similar devices. Also prohibited for drivers under the age of 18 is the use of computers, laptops, or tablets, e-mail, video games or a GPS unless it’s a voice-operated or hands-free device. Exceptions are allowed for the use of a pre-programmed GPS, vehicles in a stopped and outside the lane of traffic, and emergency calls to law enforcement, hospital or fire department. For drivers under the age of 18, a violation of the law will be a primary offense, meaning the driver can be stopped for the use of any prohibited device. A first violation would result in a $150 fine and a 60-day driver’s license suspension. Repeat violations would result in a $300 fine and a one-year driver’s license suspension. A recent survey of the motoring public by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety found that 35 percent of motorists of all ages admitted to text messaging while driving. Nearly half of drivers ages 18 to 24 admitted to text messaging while driving. Currently, 39 states and the District of Columbia have laws that address text messaging by all drivers. Some Ohio cities ban texting on a primary basis and those laws will take precedent due to Ohio’s Home Rule laws.

Church hosts back-to-school party Bullit County to perform at Party in the Park Charlene Hoeflich choeflich@mydailysentinel.com POMEROY — There was plenty of fun under the sun at the Back to School Bash block party staged by the First Southern Baptist Church on the Pomeroy parking lot last weekend. Everything from bounce houses to bead stringing and from a car show to a gospel concert was included in the party activities. Cornhole games were taking place, rides were being offered on a mini-train with Kenny Longstreath as the engineer, the Pomeroy firemen were on site with a truck to talk about safety and demonstrate the capabilities of the equipment, lamas were brought in for the kids to pet, and hotdogs were available for everyone. The Gideons were there distributing Bibles, and the Ohio University College of Osteopathy medical van was there to offer glucose screenings and blood pressure readings and to encourage healthy living habits. Seeing red was a mark of the day since the church hosts for the public party were wearing bright red shirts proclaiming “The Church has Left the Building,” Sarah Hawley shawley@heartlandpublications.com Charlene Hoeflich | Daily Sentinel Kids enjoyed rides up and down the parking lot in Kenny Longstreth’s train. Child Support Awareness Month helps local cases Staff Report mdsnews@mydailysentinel.com MIDDLEPORT — With National Child Support Awareness Month wrapping up, the Meigs County Child Support Enforcement Agency (CSEA) is focused on ensuring payments are made on a regular basis. Currently, Meigs County has 2,320 active child support cases. Of those, ap- POMEROY — There are a few confirmed or suspected cases of pertussis (whooping cough) in Meigs County, according to a report from the Meigs County Health Department. The Gallia County Health Department confirms that the same is true in neighboring Gallia County. Health Commissioner Larry Marshall said a couple of families recently brought their concerns about their children’s cough and the probability of whooping cough to the Meigs County Health Department. As a precaution against spreading pertussis, the department immediately began distributing information through Meigs schools on what symptoms parents need to watch for and what action to take if symptoms appear. To check the prevalence of the bacterial disease in the area, a contact was made with the Gallia County Health Department which confirmed that this year to date, from mid-April to the end of July, there were seven suspected cases of pertussis — one probable, and six confirmed — in Gallia County. Andrew Brumfield, public health emergency preparedness coordinator for Meigs County, said these few cases brought to the local health department’s attention are See ALERT ‌| A2 proximately 1,000 will be heard in the courts this year. According to the CSEA, more than 1,000 absent parents have a suspended driver license due to failure to pay child support. From now until Sept. 21, the Meigs CSEA is offering an opportunity for those persons to have their license reinstated by paying one month of support. During this time period, a driver’s license will be released from suspension if the participant will pay the amount due for one month of their child support obligation. To complete the process, the reinstatement fee must also be paid to the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles. To avoid further suspensions, the participant must continue to pay their RACINE — The Nashvillebased country rock duo Bullit County will perform during Racine’s annual Party in the Park. The duo will perform on the first night of the festival, Sept. 6, at 6 p.m. Bullit County consists of Canadian born, Mandy McMillan and Long Bottom, Ohio native, Alison Rose. The duo met in October 2011 while McMillan was in Nashville writing and recording with a mutual friend, Danick Dupelle of Canadian country group Emerson Drive. “We instantly became great friends and quickly realized we shared the same desire and passion and wanted to continue our musical journey together,” said Rose. “Our musical style is a bit rock and a bit country. Some influences include Waylon Jennings, Fleetwood Mac, singer/songwriter Jeffrey Steele, Johnny Cash, and Miranda Lambert… to name a few. We have written with some well renowned songwriters in town and have performed at some of Nashville’s most popular honky tonks.” The duo has plans to record in the near future and release their first single. Additional information about the duo can be found on the Bullit County Facebook page. Also performing on Thursday, which is Gospel-Bluegrass night, are the Truly Saved Trio at 5 p.m.; Shelia Arnold at 7 p.m.; and Open Rail at 8 p.m. Amusement rides, arcade games, craft and food vendors, and a petting zoo will take place from 5-10 p.m. More on the Friday and Saturday lineups for the three day festival will appear in a later edition of The Daily Sentinel. monthly obligation when it is due.

Adults and children seven years of age and older who get whooping cough may have only a very mild case with only a prolonged cough. However, pertussis can be a serious illness, especially for young infants,” Brumfield added.

To control the possible spread of pertussis, the local health department is providing information to parents and guardians about pertussis and letting them know about the vaccines available to prevent serious illness. While Brumfield says there is no need for alarm, he adds that parents should know the symptoms of pertussis and the precautions they need to take. “Whooping cough (also known as pertussis) is a bacterial disease that can spread from person to person,” said Brumfield. “It spreads through the air during talking, sneezing or coughing. During the first one to two weeks, persons with whooping cough may only experience a runny nose and non-productive cough, similar to a cold. Young children may have more serious coughing fits, often followed by a whooping sound as they try to catch their breath.” “After coughing, a person may have difficulty catching their breath, vom- �Friday, August 31, 2012 The Daily Sentinel • Page A3 www.mydailysentinel.com For The Record URG’s Masterworks Chester Council, Chorale seeking new DofA planning reception Sept. 9 choir members Ask Dr. Brothers Father of newborn feels postpartum depression Dear Dr. BrothDear Dr. Brothers: My son was ers: A friend of born just a few mine is constantly weeks ago, and making really imI’m feeling sort of pulsive decisions, depressed.

Fresh Summertime Produce Two Convenient Locations 1 Jenkins Lane, Gallipolis OH (740)446-1711 Staff Report mdtnews@mydailytribune.com RIO GRANDE — The Masterworks Chorale at the University of Rio Grande/ Rio Grande Community College is looking for more members and is encouraging area residents to consider joining the group. Made up of Rio Grande students, faculty and staff, along with local high school students and community members of all ages, the Masterworks Chorale is a comprehensive group that performs at the end of the fall and spring semesters at Rio Grande each school year. The Masterworks Chorale members rehearse on Monday evenings, from 7-9 p.m. in Room 115 in the Berry Fine and Performing Arts Centers. The members rehearse each Monday evening during the academic year, except for holidays such as Labor Day on Monday, September 3, when there will not be a rehearsal. All area residents are invited to join in, whether they have experience singing in a group or not. “Although most members know how to read music, it is not a requirement,” Director Sarin Williams, DMA, explained. Williams, who also serves as the Director of Choral Activities at Rio Grande, will work with anyone who is interested in joining; all that is required is a love of singing and the desire to work diligently with the other members of the group to prepare for the performances. The fall semester concert will be held on Nov. 18, and it will be a special concert that combines the Masterworks Chorale with the Rio Grande Symphonic Band. “I’m very excited about this show and the opportunity to collaborate with the Symphonic Band,” Williams said. The Symphonic Band is also made up of Rio Grande students, faculty and staff, along with local community members. This year’s concert will feature the music from “A Christmas Cantata,” by composer Nils Lindberg. The Swedish composer is known for his jazz songs, and this concert will feature jazz pieces that audience members will enjoy hearing. “It will be an engaging and entertaining performance,” Williams said. The concert will feature solos and small group performances in the different songs, and Williams is pleased that the Masterworks Chorale members will be able to take part in this show. She added that she is also very impressed by the musicians in the symphonic band, and is excited about hearing them perform, too. The concert will also feature some Christmas carol sing-along numbers that the audience members will enjoy. Currently, the Masterworks Chorale has around 20 members, but Williams is looking to expand the group and eventually have up to 40 members. “The Masterworks Chorale members have a good time singing together each week, and it is a great way to get to know people from all ages from throughout the community,” added Williams. New members do not need to audition to be a part of the group. For more information on joining the Masterworks Chorale, area residents are invited to stop by the rehearsals on Monday evenings in the Berry Fine and Performing Arts Center on the Rio Grande campus, or they can call Williams at 1-800-282-7201 or 2457124, or send her an e-mail at williamss@rio.edu.

Dowell, �Faith and Family The Daily Sentinel A Hunger For More Not a day goes by that we should fail to look about us in bright-eyed wonder at the glorious work of our Creator. Whenever the red-gold light of dawn breaks the bonds of night’s embrace, we should celebrate anew the Father’s provision of a brand new day. Whenever we see the twinkling lights of heaven peering down at us from a velvet sky or when the aura of the waxing moon casts its silver countenance upon the world, we should give thanks to God. Whether we stop in quiet delight when summer blooms color the world or we find ourselves stunned by the shocking repercussions of a blast of thunderous lightning, awe should fill our hearts and praise of God fill our mouths. How much more then should we tremble and gasp at the incredible grace of God Who reached down to humanity through the outspread hands of His Son, Jesus? And what a famished life is his who does not pause and engage the spiritual spheres of his life, perhaps not recognizing that the short time we spend here on earth is not intended to be anything but a realm of incubation as Creator God seeks to raise up a people for Himself who “will love Him in Spirit and in Truth” (John 4:23-24). A lot of folks describe themselves as being “spiritual”, yet fail to see that true spirituality is incomprehensibly more than the mere appreciation of those things that are unseen. It is rather the product of our grappling with the fact of God’s activity in the world around us and particularly His pursuit of our own hearts. He is a God Who, having spoken the world into existence from a void of empty darkness, has made for Himself of paramount concern our welfare, searching the world over for hearts of men and women and children that will turn to Him, opening up to the sunlight of His Thom Mollohan Pastor love as spring flowers do when a warm morning sun shines upon them. Through Jesus Christ we are given the doorway to know God personally and be given a destiny other than the one we’d surely find if we remained in our sin. If you want to know God, then you must want to know Jesus. And if you do know Jesus, then you must want to make Him known. “The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the One and Only, Who came from the Father, full of grace and truth…. To all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God – children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God…. For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and (children of God) have been given fullness in Christ, Who is the head over every power and authority” (John 1:14, 12-13; Colossians 2:9-10). It’s a strange thing that we can be awestruck by natural wonders and yet fail to be knocked to our knees in fervent worship of the One Who commands them. But once we are caught up in the perpetual novelty of Jesus, His grace and glory overwhelm us. His wisdom and power amaze us. And His holiness and mercy humble us. Only a “god” who is truly boundless in every way deserves the lifelong passion and devotion that our God deserves. And even as we begin to appreciate the majesty of this measureless God, as feeble as such appreciation is, we have finally begun to live out in truth the meaning of life. “Through Him you believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and glorified Him, and so your faith and hope are in God. Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for your brothers, love one another deeply, from the heart. For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring Word of God. For, ‘All men are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall, but the Word of the Lord stands forever.’ And this is the word that was preached to you” (1 Peter 1:21-25). So, while the world screams by you, racing madly on its way to nowhere, stop and place your hand in the hand of Him Who bore savage nails for you. While society paralyzes itself in pointless squabbling over pointless things, take upon yourself a mantle of forgiveness and renewal from the One Who took upon Himself cruel lashings for you. And while the shrouds of hopelessness and despair entwine the people of today, rise up in the new life prepared for you by the One Who laid Himself in the arms of death so that, through His resurrection, you might have the surety that this God Who saves from the penalty of sin, saves from the power of death.

Page A4 Friday, August 31, 2012 Search the Scriptures “These were more noble…they searched the scriptures daily…” In Matthew 16:11-12, Jesus warned against both the Doctrine of the Pharisees and the Doctrine of the Sadducees, two very different doctrines with this in common: they were both wrong. In our previous article we discussed the Doctrine of the Sadducees. Now let us look at what Jesus had against the teachings of the Pharisees. If you were to ask what the false teaching of the Pharisees was, many might answer: “legalism.” This is a poor answer for a number of reasons. Firstly, it is a nebulous term, not used in the Scriptures, and subject therefore to a multitude of definitions. Some, in decrying “legalism” attempt to dissuade men from following any of the commands of Christ and God, though Christ Himself said we were to teach all things He had commanded us (cf. Matthew 28:18-20) and God says that those who do not obey the truth will be judged and destroyed (cf. Romans 2:8, etc.) We need to be obedient to the full counsel of God and those who teach otherwise are teaching error. The second reason that “legalism” is a bad answer is because Jesus never accused the Pharisees of such. The Pharisees were conservative Jews who believed in the inspiration of the Scriptures and the resurrection of the dead. In many ways, one would think that they should have been Jesus’ targeted audience, but while many of them did believe (cf. John 3:1ff; Acts 15:5), they were also those with whom Jesus had the most conflict. However, in all of Jesus’ dealing with the Pharisees, He never once complained of their obedience to God. In fact, He told them that they were in the right for keeping those commands they did, even to the tithing of herb leaves, though there were other commands they were neglecting (cf. Matthew 23:23). He also told the people that in and so far as the Pharisees taught the commands of Moses, they should be listened to as teachers of the Law (cf. Matthew 23:2-3). The Lord’s primary complaints concerning the Pharisee’s religion and doctrine were of two sorts: adding to God’s word and hypocrisy. Space permits us to deal only with the first of these this week, we will deal with the other, hypocrisy, in our article next week. Jesus rebuked the Pharisees for adding to God’s Word things which were not in it, even to the point of replacing God’s commands with their own (cf. Mark 7:9). He quoted Isaiah 29:13 to say that the faith and doctrine of the Pharisees was based, not on God’s word, but on the commands of men. Proverbs reminds us, “Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him. Do not add to His words, lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar.” (Proverbs 30:5-6) It is wrong for men to replace God’s word with their own opinions, but this is what the Pharisees, through their traditions, had done. When the Pharisees converted men, they converted them, not to God’s word, but to the traditions of the Pharisees, indoctrinating them in the things they had added to God’s will. Thus Jesus said, “you travel land and sea to win one proselyte, and when he is won, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves.” (Matthew 23:15) Men today still try and replace God’s word with their own opinions and preferences. They add new practices, commandments and doctrines to the Scriptures, and then feel upset when men refuse to follow these innovations. How many feel that they must have a piano to worship, though God asks for no such thing, even to the point of canceling worship if there is no one to play the instrument God has not asked for? How many follow man made holidays and then deem them to be among the holiest days of the year? How many worship in ways, not because it is what God asked for, but because it is how things have been done for years? Far from being pleasing to God, such innovations are examples of men adding to God’s word, just as the Pharisees did. As Jesus said of them, so He might say of us, “in vain do you worship, teaching as doctrine the commandments of men.” We cannot be saved if we replace God’s word with man’s (cf. Galatians 1:6-9). Our worship to God is rejected if we replace God’s word with man’s. This was one of the reasons why Jesus was so upset with the Pharisees. Not because they were concerned with the minutiae of God’s word, but because they were more concerned about their own, madeup, traditions. Let us be careful not to fall into the same trap. If you would worship according to nothing but the commands of God, we would love to have you join us in worship at the church of Christ, 234 Chapel Drive, Gallipolis. The Christian’s purpose in life is to be more than fish bait Two night crawlers nosed into each other in the wet grass. The happenstance contact caused an immediate recoiling into their respective holes. Night crawlers love being above ground on damp cool nights, but they are very skittish about it. After several cautious moments, both re-emerged but warily kept a snug tail-end hold in the hole they had burrowed up through in the moistened soil. Recognizing each other, they entered into a wormy conversation, which went something like this. “I heard that nice rain going on up here, and I just had to come out on top for a while. That dirt we are pushing through is packed hard. Which reminds me—have you ever asked yourself what our purpose in life has to be? I mean, look at us. We are night crawlers. I get tired of working up ground every day-and-night, not knowing if there is something else special I am supposed to be doing.” “You actually concerned what our purpose in life actually is? Well, come to think about it, I’m not sure about what our actual purpose is, either. The only thing I know is that you do not want to be caught for fish bait. You get impaled on a hook, and, then, to make matters worse, you get thrown into the water to dangle around for something called a catfish to gulp you down. I once heard about it from a couple of crawlers who got caught but eventually got returned to the ground where they were snatched from. They told me what happened to the and vacations. others that were Some consider not so lucky.” accumulating It prevails luxury items upon us at this or savings acpoint to intercounts as most rupt and put purposeful. this night crawlOthers tend to er conversation emphasize raison hold for a ing families and moment, which regaling friends. does bring up Living life to the a rather good fullest within point to conthe short paramsider when coneter of time we sidered from have it is often Ron Branch the perspective the summarizaPastor of the Christian tion of it all. life. By contrast, Either of what is actually these points are the Christian’s purpose in certainly matters of emphasis this life? for the people of the Church. A variety of answers seem But, none of these are sufto satisfy many associated ficient considerations about with the Church. For some, it what a Christian’s main purinvolves a focus on vocations pose in life involves. The bottom line purpose for the people of the Church in this life we live is to bring God honor and glory. Very few live it. Most do not. Apostle Paul stated, “Whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.” “Unto Him be glory in the Church.” We are supposed to be “filled with the fruits of righteousness…unto the glory and praise of God.” If the Church correctly understands and embraces this spiritual ideal, the life we live has an extreme value placed on it super-ceding any other value in life we may have. This being altogether true, we are confronted with the question: how shall we bring God honor and glory? The Biblical principles are before us to direct us. Living expressly the new, changed life in Jesus Christ is paramount. This means that we should live out in obedient fashion what the Gospel truly is: the death, burial, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ. The resurrection of Christ is particularly central to what the Gospel is due to its proving the regeneration work of God. If we do not live out the expectations of changed life in Christ to bring God honor and glory, then we just become a type of fish bait dangling on the hooks of worldly affairs. “How do you keep from being caught for fish bait?” asked the intrigued crawler. The other responded “Don’t look long at the light. As a matter of fact, you see that light coming up right behind you…?” Quasi-theological malarkey rampant in today’s world As they often do, last night our neighbor’s dogs started barking. I have no idea why they started barking, or what it was they were barking at, but dogs will be dogs — and dogs bark. Dogs bark; but lions, on the other hand — ROAR! They roar to assert themselves, and they roar when they are hungry and actively seeking something to eat. Lions don’t roar just to hear themselves make noise, but even if they did what other animal would tell them to be quiet?!? After all: a king of any species is still a king, and by their nature lions are at the very top of the food chain — totally “lean, mean, killing machines.” With this in mind, in the first of his two Epistles, the Apostle Peter cautioned his readers to always be on their guard against their very real and ever-present adversary, the devil—which Peter described as a ravenous and roaring lion (5:8). Unlike a lion, however, the devil is NEVER content or satisfied with the havoc he wreaks; his is the perpetual goal to cause still more. It’s a sad fact of life in this modern-day that many of God’s children no longer read or heed what is written in the Bible. Even so, those reading it may “read into” a given passage whatever counsel or meaning they want to extract from it — never mind how obtuse, perverse, or self-serving that may be! Some years ago, I was talking with another Christian who was lamenting the fact neither his own pastor nor the denomination to which he then belonged believed in either the devil or hell. Sound familiar? It should. Surprised? Don’t be. There’s a lot of this quasi-theological malarkey in the world today, but what’s worse is the fact it’s coming out of the Church! The driving not.

That there was only One AlWE CANNOT—and we will mighty God was beyond their comprehension, as was the likelihood one man’s name and influence would endure far longer than their Empire. The decline of the Roman Empire was due in large part to its decadent and degenerate lifestyle, and such behavior on the part of other countries always culminates in their eventual demise, as well. As Americans, we would be foolish to imagine we can continue in the ways we have been going, but not suffer the same fate. There is nothing special about these United States to compel God to bless us in spite of and in the midst of our own sinful lifestyles. The “lifestyles of the rich and famous” is the devil’s smorgasbord; don’t go there. We need to consider another scenario, that of “sinners in the hands of an angry God” — and with this in mind proclaim the real truth of God’s love. (John 3:16 and 17 is always good for starters.) Having mentioned Adolf Hitler, know this: when the German Christians first saw what was happening and were in a position to challenge Hitler’s immoral ideas and practices … they said nothing, they did nothing. When they finally moved to oppose him, it was too late. It would be easy to blame this Country’s troubles on the blather and bluster, the dithering and dickering of our elected officials; it would also be wrong. As Christians, we’ve dodged the bullet of offending others by “going along to get along” — only to offend God with our temerity. Feel the urge to comply or compromise? Lions may roar, but the Devil can purr; be careful. Can God yet bless America? Certainly. How? 2nd Chronicles 7:14 is the door; open it. �Friday, August 17, 2012 Friday, August 2012 24, 2012 Friday, July 13,3,2012 2012 Friday, 27, Friday, August 31, 2012 Friday, March 2012 Friday,July July 20,2, 2012 Friday, February 24, 2012 www.mydailysentinel.com www.mydailysentinel.com www.mydailysentinel.com www.mydailysentinel.com www.mydailysentinel.com www.mydailysentinel.com www.mydailysentinel.com TheThe Daily Sentinel • Page A55 5 The Daily Sentinel • Page Daily Sentinel • •Page The Daily Sentinel The Daily Sentinel •• Page A5 The Daily Sentinel • Page Page The Daily Sentinel Page 5 55 The Daily Sentinel • Page 5 WORSHIP GOD THIS WEEK Please email changes to mdtnews@mydailytribune.com Fellowship Apostolic FellowshipFellowship Apostolic Apostolic a.m.; Sunday mass, 9:30 a.m.; daily mass, 8:30 a.m.Westside Church of Christ Church ofHome ChristRoad, 33226 Children’s Church of Jesus Christ Apostolic Pomeroy.

It does now,” Sheri Marcum, a senior said. “I really had a lot of doubt about whether or not I could do this.” Like the experiments students must conduct in their classes, the process of creating and delivering a new major uncovered the unexpected. “I think students underestimate the power they have to impact a program,” said Jacob White, Ph.D., associate professor of chemistry. “They’ve each contributed to the program in their own way. There is always that opportunity at Rio.” An unexpected turn Dr. White said when the Chemistry Department decided to offer a major, the plan was simple: sophomores use research templates; juniors meet in the middle in a “bridge” format; and seniors do original research. The Provost’s Academic Excellence Initiative at Rio changed that plan. The grant affords student funding to work on special projects with their professors. In this case, the Chemistry Department leaders decided that the students would complete an experiment and present at the Ohio Academy of Science Annual Meeting. Nobody from the Rio Chemistry Department had ever presented at this prestigious meeting before. “This peer review process is pretty intense,” John Means, Ph.D., assistant professor of chemistry, explained. “The Local stocks AEP (NYSE) — 42.80 Akzo (NASDAQ) — 19.02 Ashland Inc.

Member SIPC. students were put through the ringer.” In order to present at the Ohio Academy of Science Annual Meeting, students must provide original research. One year ahead of schedule, the junior chemistry majors were challenged beyond their expectations and would have to deal with a change in plans. “The students dove into the deep-end of the original research pool,” Dr. White said. A calming force Marcum is used to stress. “My children are older than my classmates,” she said when talking about her age. For years, Marcum worked as a lab technician and although she was doing higher-level work could not receive a promotion without a four-year degree. “I like a good challenge, and if you want a good challenge, further your education,” she said. So Marcum enrolled at Rio majoring in chemistry. At one point, Marcum worked overnight, took a nap in the morning and went to class in the middle of the day. White and Means both said Marcum’s professional experience helped guide the entire department through the research and experimentation phase of their proposals. But Marcum just saw this as another day’s work. “In the lab, it’s feast or famine,” she said. A thorough review Marcum said each student created an individual presentation, but all of her classmates offered a helping hand. After a peer review, all four abstracts received an invitation to present at the Ohio Academy of Science Annual Meeting. “Pushing yourself beyond your comfort zone and being equal to others from different universities, it was a great sense of pride that you met the challenge,” Marcum said. Not only was this the first time anyone from the Rio Chemistry Program presented in front of this statewide audience, they had just seven weeks to prepare when other universities had the entire academic year. “We are extremely proud of these students,” Means said. “Things changed on the fly for them and they adapted quickly.” A bright future Experiments don’t always go as planned and, as he looks to the future, White says his biggest challenge is trying to find a way to top last year’s success. “It was even more of a transformative experience than we had hoped for,” he said. “We could see the students’ confidence levels increase tremendously. That’s a gratifying experience.” So, too, will watching the four students who walked into class three years ago experience one final year together. In May 2013, they will become the first graduating class of the newly redesigned Chemistry Program at the University of Rio Grande. “Many think chemistry is unattainable if you’re out of school for a certain time, but the main thing is you have to be willing to work hard,” Means said. “If you set your mind to it and have the desire to work hard, it’s quite attainable.” “Furthering your education pays for itself in the long run,” Marcum agreed. “By far.” Marcum Construction and General Contracting Mike W.

Hunting with Heroes is pleased to announce its fall hunting opportunities for disabled hunters. The fourth annual Lt. Colonel Ted Epple Veterans with Disabilities Bow Hunt is set for Nov. 9–11. These hunts have been successful with participants. Two deer were harvested in 2011, five deer were harvested in 2010 and three deer were harvested in 2009. Ten hunters participated in last year’s hunt, and coordinators are hoping 20 hunters will participate this year. The second annual Dream Catchers Bow Hunt, held on prime whitetail deer property in Allen County, gives 10 young hunters a great outdoor recreational experience. Young hunters may register to be selected to participate in this hunt. The Dream Catchers Bow Hunt is open to disabled youth 17 years of age and younger and will take place on Oct. 27–28. Each hunter will be paired with an experienced guide, and these guides offer whatever assistance may be needed in the field. Ohio Department of Natural Resources’ (ODNR) Division of Wildlife officers will be available to help the hunters as well. Generous donations from the local community make it possible for these hunters to enjoy a free weekend hunting. To register for either hunt, participants are asked to contact Joe Sawmiller at (419) 204-2805 or email huntingwithheroes@hotmail.com. Registrations must be received by Oct. 1.

Inside the city, there were bursts of sunshine, the fortified defenses held and life began to slowly get back to some sort of normalcy. As the storm slogged its way across the state and windy conditions calmed, the extent of some of the damage became clear. Hundreds of homes, perhaps more, were underwater, thousands of people were staying at shelters and half of the state was without power. About 500 people had to be rescued by boat or high-water vehicles and at least two people were killed. And the damage may not be done. Waters continued to rise and a dam at a lake near the Louisiana-Mississippi border was under a lot of pressure. Evacuations were ordered in a lot of places ahead of the storm, but Isaac’s unpredictable, meandering path and the amount of rain — as much as 16 inches in some places — caught many off guard. “I was blindsided, nobody expected this,” said Richard Musatchia, who left his home in LaPlace, northwest of the city. Musatchia said 5 feet of water filled his home before a neighbor passed by with a boat and evacuated him and his 6-year-old boxer, Renny. He piled two suitcases, a backpack and a few smaller bags onto the boat and said that’s all he has left. He left a brand-new Cadillac and a HarleyDavidson behind. “People have their generators, be- cause they thought the power would go out, but no one expected the water,” he said. Others trickled into a parking lot of the New Wine Christian Fellowship church, delivered by National Guard vehicles, school buses and pickup trucks. Daphine and David Newman fled their newly decorate home with two trash bags of clothing. They have lived in their subdivision since 1992, and they never had water in their home from previous storms, including Katrina. The comparison was common one since Isaac hit on the seventh anniversary of the devastating 2005 storm, though the differences were stark. Katrina was more powerful, a Category 3 at landfall, while Isaac was a Category 1 at its peak. Isaac wobbled around; Katrina barreled into the state and quickly moved through. David Newman was frustrated the government spent billions reinforcing levees for New Orleans and Jefferson Parish after Katrina and now he had the water. “The water’s got to go somewhere,” he said. “It’s going to find the weakest link, and with the wind directions, we was ground zero.” Along the shores of Lake Ponchartrain near New Orleans, officials sent scores of buses and dozens of highwater vehicles to help evacuate about 3,000 people as rising waters lapped against houses and left cars stranded. Floodwaters rose waist-high in some neighborhoods, and the Louisiana National Guard was working with sheriff’s deputies to rescue people stranded in their homes. A Coast Guard helicopter hoisted a couple and their dogs early Thursday from a home in LaPlace, between the Mississippi River and Lake Ponchartrain, after storm surge poured into their neighborhood and local authorities called for help. The couple was taken to New Orleans and reported in good condition. “The husband and wife and their two dogs were in an area where a lot of houses washed away,” said Lt. Cmdr. Jorge Porto. “They used a flashlight inside the house as a signaling device, which made all the difference in locating them effectively.” To the east, evacuations were ordered in a sparsely-populated area as a lake dam threatened to break near the Mississippi-Louisiana border. Officials in Tangipahoa Parish, La., feared the water it would pour into the already swollen river would flood low-lying areas downstream. Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal said officials there would release water at the dam. A tow truck driver was killed Thursday morning when a tree fell on his truck in Picayune, Miss., just across the state line from Louisiana. In Vermilion Parish, a 36-year-old man died after falling 18 feet from a tree while helping friends move a vehicle ahead of the storm. Deputies did not know why he climbed the tree. President Barack Obama declared federal emergencies in Louisiana and Mississippi late Wednesday, allowing federal aid to be freed up for affected areas. Isaac arrived seven years after Hurricane Katrina and passed slightly to the west of New Orleans, where the city’s fortified levee system easily handled the assault. “Unfortunately, that’s not been the case for low-lying areas outside the federal system, in particular lower Jefferson and Plaquemines parishes,” said Louisiana Democratic U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu. “Hurricane Isaac has reinforced for us once again just how vulnerable these critical areas are. We must re-engage the Corps of Engineers on this.” Louisiana’s Public Service Commission said 901,000 homes and businesses around the state — about 47 percent of all customers — were without power Thursday. Utility company Entergy said that included about 157,000 in New Orleans. New Orleans’ biggest problems seemed to be downed power lines, scattered tree limbs and minor flooding. “Hopefully, as far as the city of New Orleans is concerned, the worst is behind us,” Mayor Mitch Landrieu said Thursday. In Plaquemines Parish, a sparsely populated area south of the city that is outside the federal levee system, dozens of people were stranded in flooded coastal areas and had to be rescued. The storm pushed water over an 18mile levee and put so much pressure on it that authorities planned to intentionally puncture the floodwall Thursday to relieve the strain. Officials rushed to evacuate more than 100 nursing home residents Wednesday from Plaquemines Parish, an area with a reputation for residents hunkering down to weather storms and perhaps the hardest hit by Isaac. In this hardscrabble, mostly rural parish, even the sick and elderly are hardened storm veterans. “I don’t think we had to evacuate to begin with,” said Romaine Dahl, 59, as he sat in a wheelchair. “The weather was a hell of a lot worse last night than it is now. And I got an idea that after all this is said and done they’re going to say everything is over with, go on back home.” By midafternoon Wednesday, Isaac had been downgraded to a tropical storm. The Louisiana National Guard ceased rescue operations in Plaquemines Parish, saying it felt confident it had gotten everyone out. There were no serious injuries. National Guard spokesman Capt. Lance Cagnolatti said guardsmen would stay in the area over the coming days to help. Isaac’s maximum sustained winds had decreased to 40 mph, and the National Hurricane Center said it was expected to become a tropical depression by Thursday night, meaning its top sustained winds would drop below 39 mph. The storm’s center was on track to cross Arkansas on Friday and southern Missouri on Friday night, spreading rain as it goes. Forecasters expected Isaac to move farther inland over the next several days, dumping rain on drought-stricken states across the nation’s midsection before finally breaking up over the weekend. Isaac came ashore late Tuesday as a Category 1 hurricane, with 80 mph winds near the mouth of the Mississippi River. It drove a wall of water nearly 11 feet high inland. GOP calls for broader gun rights, unlimited clips dent, also endorses “stand your ground” rights for gun owners. That legal concept, which says gun bearers don’t have to retreat if they feel threatened in a public place, drew national attention after February’s fatal shooting of an unarmed Florida teenager by a neighborhood watch volunteer. Republicans traditionally embrace gun rights in their quadrennial party platforms. The one approved this week went farther than those of 2004 and 2008. Gun control advocates see it as an audacious answer to calls for firearms restrictions after a gunman killed 12 people in Colorado last month, and another gunman killed six people in Tucson, Ariz., early last year. Gabrielle Giffords, then a Democratic congresswoman holding an outdoor meeting, was gravely wounded in the Tucson assault. “Gun control only affects and penalizes law-abiding citizens,” the 2008 Republican platform said. This year’s platform adds: “We oppose legislation that is intended to restrict our Second Amendment rights by limiting the capacity of clips or magazines.” The shooters in Colorado and Arizona used largecapacity weapons capable of firing many rounds quickly. The 2004 GOP platform said “law-abiding citizens” should have the right “to own firearms in their homes for self-defense.” This year’s platform supports “the fundamental right to self-defense wherever a law-abiding citizen has a legal right to be.” It calls for federal laws “that would expand the exercise of that right by allowing those with state-issued carry permits to carry firearms in any state that issues such permits to its own residents.” Dan Gross, president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, said that, by making these changes, Republican leaders have “put themselves farther out of touch with their constituents.” His group supports bans on large-capacity weapons, which it says are “designed to shoot a lot of people quickly and efficiently.” The T he B Best est Zero Z erro T e Turn urn Mower M ower Built B uiilt iin u n tthe he USA!

His attorneys say Holmes is mentally ill and that he sought help from Fenton at the school, where he was a Ph.D. student, until shortly before the July 20 shooting that killed 12 people and wounded 58 others. Prosecutors allege that Holmes may have been angry at the failure of a once promising academic career. Insanity is unlike the mental competency argument used for Jared Loughner, who ultimately pleaded guilty in federal court to the 2011 Arizona shooting that killed six people and wounded 13 others, including then-Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. Mental competency involves whether a defendant is aware of what’s happening in court and can assist his or her attorneys with a defense. In Loughner’s case, he received treatment, became competent and entered his plea. In an insanity defense, a defendant is deemed not guilty because he didn’t know right from wrong and is therefore “absolved” of the crime, Jefferson County District Attorney Scott Storey said, who recently lost an insanity case. If Holmes is found sane and goes to trial and is convicted, his attorneys can try to stave off a possible death penalty by arguing he is mentally ill. Prosecutors have yet to decide whether to seek the death penalty. Authorities have said that Holmes meticulously stockpiled ammunition and other gear and booby-trapped his apartment to kill, suggesting that he knew what he was doing. With the burden on prosecutors, those details don’t matter, prosecutors say. Insanity cases depend on a court ordered evaluation by state psychiatrists and up to two additional state evaluations requested by defense attorneys or prosecutors and approved by a judge. In about 40 states and in federal court, the burden of proof is on the defense, which must prove that a client is insane. Two recent cases illustrate their difficult task. In October, Bruco Strong Eagle Eastwood was acquitted by reason of insanity of attempted first-degree murder in the wounding of two children outside a Colorado school, a case that garnered national headlines after a math teacher tackled him and stopped the shooting. Eastwood is spending time in a mental hospital. His case will be reviewed every six months until he’s deemed sane and released. Storey, the prosecutor, said the average stay in a state hospital for homicide is 7.5 years. Storey had Dr. Steven Pitt, known for his work on the Columbine shooting, examine Eastwood’s mental health records and interview witnesses — but by law, Pitt could not interview Eastwood. At trial, Pitt testified he could not say Eastwood was sane at the time of the shooting because he could not see him. Two court-appointed state doctors did find Eastwood, previously diagnosed with schizophrenia, insane, even though Eastwood had visited the school hours before the shooting, waited for a school resource officer to leave and acknowledged in questioning after his arrest that he knew what he did was wrong. Asked what he was thinking during the shooting, Eastwood told investigators: “Accuracy.” Storey attributed Eastwood’s acquittal to Pitt’s in- “The Red Carpet Treatment” Serving SE Ohio & Bend Area Since 1986 Marty O’Bryant Owner 1-888-992-7090 1-740-992-7090 www.redcarpettreatment.org 3 Rooms Sofa, Loveseat Each Additional & Chair Room $3000 Cleaned* Add Hall or Bath* Cleaned* $ 95 $ $ 1000 109 14900 * Call Today for Details 60340848 ability to examine Eastwood. “I think it’s a flaw in the statute that needs to be corrected,” he said. In Boulder County, District Attorney Stan Garnett is appealing a judge’s decision not to allow a prosecution expert to examine Stephanie Rochester, who suffocated her 6-month-old son in 2010 because she said she feared he had autism. A state psychiatrist determined that Rochester had a major depressive disorder, and the judge declared her not guilty by reason of insanity in January. “You need to make sure that both sides have equal access to the same information, which in a sanity case is the opportunity to examine the defendant,” said Garnett, who cited evidence that Rochester tried to suffocate her baby over several hours, returning to the dinner table with her husband after an unsuccessful attempt. In his appeal, Garnett isn’t seeking a retrial of Rochester but an opinion to clarify the law for judges in future cases. “Because the defendant is the sole source of evidence in this situation, courts have noted a defendant’s opportunity to manipulate the information the prosecution receives,” Garnett argued in his appeal. Defense attorneys say the system is fine because a defendant gives up certain rights when pleading insanity, including the right to remain silent. Once a defendant enters his plea, the court orders an independent evaluation by a state doctor, from whom findings of insanity in criminal cases are rare, said Scott Robinson, a Denver criminal attorney. “It’s not an ‘our doctor, your doctor’ thing,” Robinson said. “There is a certain built-in advantage for the defense, but only if the opinion from the state evaluation is insanity.” “What they’re saying is, ‘When we don’t like what the independent state-hired psychiatrist finds, we want to be able to get our own hired guns and find somebody to say that he is not insane,’” said Denver criminal defense attorney Dan Recht, a former public defender and past president of the Colorado Criminal Defense Bar. “The constitution says, ‘Sorry, you don’t get that in this case or any other case.’” 60348430 what it takes to be crowned the DENVER (AP) — If James Holmes pleads not guilty by reason of insanity, prosecutors wanting to prove that he methodically carried out a deadly Colorado movie theater shooting have a difficult task before them: They must prove he is sane. Unlike other states where the defense needs to prove insanity, prosecutors in Colorado are the ones who have to show that a defendant is sane — all without the ability of having their own experts examine Holmes. “It’s burden of proof on steroids,” said Marcellus McRae, a former federal prosecutor now in private trial attorney in Los Angeles. “It’s totally subjective. It’s not like proving somebody pulled the trigger. That’s objective.” Whether he pleads guilty by reason of insanity, the case against Holmes promises to focus on his mental health. A court hearing Thursday will examine his relationship with University of Colorado psychiatrist Lynne Fenton, to whom he mailed a package containing a notebook that reportedly contains violent de- 60348423 Think your Pet has �The Daily Sentinel FRIDAY, AUGUST 31, 2012 mdssports@heartlandpublications.com Sports INSIDE Bar set low for Browns B3 Mason County Week 2 Football Preview Bryan Walters bwalters@heartlandpublications.com Wahama White Falcons (1-0) at Trimble Tomcats (1-0) Last Week: Wahama 35-7 win at Fayetteville; Trimble 21-14 win at Nelsonville-York.

Bryce Guthrie’s 43 along with a 46 shot by both Nick Smith and Jeff Andrews accounted for the final Trimble total. Cole Shifflet also played for Trimble, but his score was not part of the final score.

Speedy pace integral to Buckeyes’ new approach COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — After six years steeped in Southeastern Conference speed, Urban Meyer wants a similar look from his new team. “I just want guys to play fast,” he says. So in his first season at Ohio State, he has instituted warmups, drills and practice procedures all built around the central tenet of, well, hurrying. He has said he doesn’t care so much if a player does something wrong so long as they do it quickly. The message has soaked in, and it carries over from a fast-paced world: Don’t dawdle. For a generation raised on 140-character summations and rapid Google searches, it’s only natural that optimizing your time in football means packing as much as possible into a short period. “We’re very impatient,” Luke Fickell said, sounding more like a sociologist than a defensive coordinator. “So when things are happening fast, it’s almost like these guys are used to that. Everything is instant nowadays. So I think they enjoy the up-tempo practice. It adds a little bit more excitement.” And what the 18th-ranked Buckeyes do in practice they hope carries over to games, such as their opener on Saturday against Miami (Ohio). Meyer preaches that he wants everyone’s body clocks set to a span of 4 to 6 seconds of full-bore activity. He wants his offense to run so many plays so quickly that defenses either don’t have time to make adjustments or break down from the incredible pace. “Coach Meyer has that motto, ‘Practice hard so the games are easy,’” defensive lineman Michael Bennett said. “He’s doing that. Everything’s really fast. You don’t get a rest. So that when the game comes, the 8 seconds in between each play, you’re just loving it.” So, is this a track squad, a football team or a game of musical chairs? Truth be told, it’s all of those things. Meyer has been critical of his receivers and backs since the first day of practice because they don’t show the breakneck speed, versatility and athleticism he was used to during his time as coach at Florida. The SEC, winner of the last six national championships, is the acknowledged capital of sprinters in shoulder pads. “There’s some fast times that our (players were timed at) this year. Like, fast times. (But) they don’t play real fast,” Meyer groused midway through fall workouts. “So our job as coaches is to get them to play fast. I think there’s enough here that I hope to get wowed a little bit.” It started with his offense. The defense has had to adapt to keep up. Now opposing teams will have to follow suit. “Once the offense becomes second nature, the whole game slows down and the tempo doesn’t seem near as fast for the guys who are doing it,” offensive coordinator Tom Herman said. Even the massive, meaty linemen have gotten into the rhythm of things. “I felt like, in the spring, when we were scrimmaging, we got into that seventh or eighth play of the drive the defensive line was, like, ‘Oh, man!’ They’d never seen something like that, players like us going as fast as we can, getting the play off as fast as we can,” said center Corey Linsley, hardly a scatback at 6-foot-3 and 295 pounds. “It’s a huge advantage.” So much for the dog days of practice. There’s been no respite from the unrelenting pace. No. 11 WVU looks to defend Marshall WR Dobson MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — It was a catch that got its share of replays last year, a backhanded touchdown grab by Marshall’s Aaron Dobson between two East Carolina defenders. Dobson’s athleticism isn’t lost on No. 11 West Virginia. When the Mountaineers face Marshall on Saturday, they must find a way to keep the senior wide receiver from doing similar things to them. “It was a great catch, one of the greatest catches I’ve ever seen,” said West Virginia safety Darwin Cook. Cook is known for his own touchdown highlight, a 99-yard fumble return in the Orange Bowl against Clemson in January. “I was thinking, ‘Hey, this guy might think his play is better than mine,’” Cook said. “So I’ve got to prove him wrong when we get out there on that field.” Dobson’s grab was one of 12 touchdowns he scored a year ago, when he caught 49 passes for 668 yards. He was mostly quiet against the Mountaineers, but in 2010, West Virginia got caught in man-to-man defense and Dobson scored on a 96-yard pass play. “I want to make a statement,” Dobson said. “I’m going to get the opportunities again this year. And I’m going to try to make the best of them.” He’ll have to do it against a defense that has undergone several changes. West Virginia debuts a different scheme this season along with several new assistant coaches. “He’s a special player, there’s no doubt,” said Joe DeForest, West Virginia’s new defensive coordinator. “He’s got the ability to hurt you. But there are also other guys they go to. They’ve got a great group of receivers and they’re very, very dangerous on offense.” Preparing for Dobson isn’t too difficult, considering West Virginia has its own set of top threats in wide receivers Tavon Austin and Stedman Bailey. “We understand we are practicing against one of the more talented offenses in the country,” said West Virginia cornerbacks coach Daron Roberts. “And our unit, particularly the secondary, has really embraced the fact that we get the best look in practice in the country.” Dobson graduated from South Charleston High and has many friends in Morgantown. There’s been plenty of talk back-and-forth about the Marshall-West Virginia game, which will be the last for some time. This is the final year in the sevenyear contract between the schools. West Virginia has won every meeting. “People say this isn’t a rivalry because we haven’t won,” Dobson said. “But in the end, everyone in the state loves seeing us play the game against each other.” 28-13 loss vs. Symmes Valley.

They’re missing two starters on defense, two others are facing possible suspensions and there are questions up and down the roster as well as about secondyear coach Pat Shurmur. If all that wasn’t enough, the Browns play in the AFC North, arguably the NFL’s toughest division, and face a rugged schedule with no gimmes. No wonder several national prognosticators picked the Browns to go 1-15. “It’s not even a situation where we’re not getting any respect we deserve because we really haven’t done anything, but we’re not getting any … respect … at … all,” said T.J. Ward, pausing between his words for emphasis. It’s like we might as well not even be in the league.” The Browns are hoping Brandon Weeden can lead them back to respectability. Named Cleveland’s starting quarterback before the first exhibition game, Weeden, the former minor league pitcher and Oklahoma State standout has all the physical tools: size, arm strength, smarts. But it remains to be seen if the Browns have enough for Weeden to be productive. They scored just 218 points last season and never more than 27 in any game.

Linebacker Scott Fujita is appealing his three-game suspension for the Saints’ bounty scandal, and cornerback Joe Haden could be suspended for failing a drug test. Cleveland’s secondary made some plays in 2011, not enough of them. Dawson accounted for nearly half of Cleveland’s points last year. The 37-year-old tied a league mark with seven field goals beyond 50 yards, and he’s closing in on several team records including career points and games. More than anything, though, Dawson wants to get back to the playoffs. The Browns haven’t made the postseason since 2002, and it’s unlikely they’ll get there this season. But Dawson has seen enough to know anything is possible. “With a young team, you really never know how it’s going to respond,” he said. “But I’m excited. The fact that we’re not getting any recognition, I think that’s good. It would be a whole other kind of pressure if they were predicting 14 wins.

Mr. Accuracy was off the mark. Dawson has endured the freak injuries, the trades and firings, the heartbreaking losses and lopsided ones, and just about anything else you could imagine happening to a onceproud Cleveland franchise since 1999. The sole survivor from that expansion team and unquestionably the best thing about the Browns for years, Dawson, like everyone else, was stunned this summer to learn they were being sold. “It surprised me,” he said. “But what can you do?” Hopefully, the new boss has a plan. Jimmy Haslam III has work to do. Coming off a dismal 4-12 season, their eighth in nine years of at least 10 losses, the Browns enter 2012 with high hopes and low expectations. In addition to a new owner who could soon implement major changes, the Browns will start a 28-year-old rookie quarterback and a rookie running back who missed the exhibition season following his second knee surgery in less �� ���� ��� ������� ����­�������€ ��‚�ƒ�ƒ„�ƒ��ƒ�ƒ„�� � ���� �� � ������ �� �������  �������������€ ����� �� 60342185 Our Family is Here for Yours Not only do we have NISSAN The passing of a loved one is a painful experience.

The Bengals have gone to the playoffs in back-to-back seasons only once. They went to the Super Bowl for the first time and lost to San Francisco during the 1981 season, then made the playoffs again the following year. That’s it. It’s even worse by another measure. Only twice in their history have they followed a playoff appearance with so little as a winning record the following season. This is a franchise short on staying power. And that’s the first thing they want to change coming off their 2011 playoff loss to Houston. “That’s definitely the next challenge,” offensive tackle Andrew Whitworth said. “And what does that take? It takes being a consistent team every week and playing our style no matter who we play. That’s what it’s going to take for us to take the next step.” They’re not getting off on the right foot. The Bengals had an inordinate number of injuries during training camp and the preseason games. Both running backs — BenJarvus Green-Ellis and Bernard Scott — missed games. Starting left guard Travelle Wharton tore up a knee, and center Kyle Cook had a foot and ankle injury that could end his season, too. Cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick, their top draft pick, hurt a knee and missed all the preseason games. “You can get an onset of injuries that happen right away; you can get injuries that happen throughout the year,” Cook said. “Every team is different. Hopefully with the injuries we’ve had and the guys that are able to come back, it kind of stops the floodgates per se. Hopefully we’re done for the year and everybody stays healthy and people can come back.” They need to stay healthy — and have a lot of other things go right — if they’re going to go to the playoffs again this season. And that starts with their two young stars. They went 9-7 and won a wild card berth last season with rookies at quarterback and receiver. Andy Dalton and A.J. Green made the Pro Bowl together in their first goaround. There will be a lot more on them this time around. The Daily Sentinel • Page B4 www.mydailysentinel.com Green found himself getting tougher coverage as the season went along. Defenses tried to figure out Dalton’s weaknesses and take advantage of them. With an entire offseason to analyze the duo, opponents ought to be able to do even more this season. Green expects it. “Yeah, definitely,” he said. “Toward the end of the season, they started rolling coverage to my side a lot. But (now) I’m used to that stuff. Now I just have to be able to execute and not get as frustrated as I did last year about it.” The Bengals hoped to get a proven complement to Green, but head into the season with a lot of young, unproven receivers. The one advantage over last season is that they’ve been together for a year now. “It’s completely different,” Dalton said. “Guys have been in this system a long time. They know what they are doing. “We’ve installed the offense several times. Everyone knows it by now. We can move guys around.” The core of the defense remains intact, with top cornerback Leon Hall back from a torn Achilles tendon. Nate Clements starts at the other spot, with Kirkpatrick hoping to move into some role early in the season when he’s recovered from his knee injury. “It’s a long season,” Kirkpatrick said. “I’m not worried about if I’m starting, or am I going to get to play. I can contribute on special teams. I feel like I do a great job on special teams.” The Bengals realize they’re going to have to be much better than last season if they want to make the playoffs again. They were one of three AFC North teams to reach the playoffs last season, taking advantage of a favorable schedule under the league’s division-vs.-division rotation. Of their nine wins, only one came against a team that finished the season with a winning record. Overall, they were 0-8 against other teams that reached the playoffs. Essentially, they beat the many subpar teams on their schedule but couldn’t measure up against the best. This season will provide a better chance to see where they stand. “Teams that are good year-in and yearout are probably your most consistent teams,” Whitworth said. “Every week, they kind of play the same way. That’s what it takes to be that kind of team. Labor Day Holiday Hours Steelers have new faces, same expectations PITTSBURGH (AP) — Brett Keisel glanced around the Pittsburgh Steelers defensive meeting room one day at training camp and the defensive end was struck by what — or actually who — he didn’t see. No James Farrior. No Aaron Smith. No Chris Hoke. All important role players in Pittsburgh’s run of three Super Bowl appearances in six years. All part of a mass offseason exodus — by Steelers’ standards anyway — that left the team decidedly younger though Keisel stressed no less focused on a seventh Lombardi trophy. “Yeah, you notice when you’re one of the oldest guys in the room,” said Keisel, who turns 34 in September. “But you know how it is around here. The standard is the standard and these young guys, they know what’s expected and what they have to do to help this team win.” And win now. In that sense, it’s business as usual in Pittsburgh. It’s also one of the few things that have remained intact following a busy offseason for one of the NFL’s most stable franchises. Hines Ward, and his team-record 1,000 career receptions, was released. Offensive coordinator Bruce Arians was let go. Offensive guard Chris Kemoeatu was also shown the door as part of a youth movement along the offensive line. While coach Mike Tomlin allows the locker room will miss the presence of leaders like Ward and Farrior, he’s hardly concerned about how it will affect the Steelers on the field. “From the formation of a team and the playmaking standpoint, the plays are going to be made,” he said. “The wheels will continue to turn … it’s bigger than all of us. Somebody is going to catch passes. Somebody is going to tackle people.” Hopefully just a little bit better than they did a year ago. The Steelers went 12-4 in 2011 but lacked a certain killer instinct. They led the league in yards allowed but were last in turnovers created and let Tim Tebow kick them out of the playoffs with a wild overtime playoff win. Pittsburgh’s offense moved the ball with ease but struggled scoring points, one of the main reasons the popular and laid-back Arians was replaced with the fiery Todd Haley, who is hoping to give the running game some needed thump. “We want to be a team that most importantly, can run it when we want to run it and throw it when we have to throw it,” Haley said. To get there, the team drafted All-American guard David DeCastro in the first round and massive left tackle Mike Adams in the second in hopes they can bolster a line that gave up 42 sacks last season and made quarterback Ben Roethlisberger spend most of the year shaking off nagging injuries due to a constant pounding. That plan hit a significant bump in the preseason as Adams struggled to adjust to the NFL’s speed and DeCastro is out indefinitely with a right knee injury. Now the revamped line is merely reshuffled. Veteran Willie Colon moved from right tackle to left guard, while Ramon Foster will fill in at right guard until DeCastro returns. Max Starks recovered from offseason knee surgery in time to re-sign and protect good friend Roethlisberger’s blind side while Adams gets his bearings. “We’ve been through this before,” Starks said. “It’s not like this is something brand new and you’ve had the same five starters for three years and nobody’s had any reps. Our group is used to turnover and position flexibility.” Middleport Community Association Athens 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Lunch Along The River 1st WEDNESDAY OF EACH MONTH 11a.m. - 1p.m. Through October Dave Diles Park $5.00/donation Saturday, Sunday, Monday We Have Cats Meow $20@ W NE Middleport Pool Middleport High\Meigs Jr. High Meigs High School GREAT GIFT IDEA!

Starting running back Rashard Mendenhall is still rehabbing the torn ACL in his right knee suffered in last season’s finale against Cleveland. Linebacker James Harrison spent the offseason dealing with a balky knee. So did nose tackle Casey Hampton. Harrison and Hampton vowed to be ready for the season opener in Denver on Sept. 9. Perhaps they will be, but their injury issues only highlighted just how close they are to the end of their brilliant careers. This may be their last chance at making a Super Bowl run. The same goes for perennial All Pro safety Troy Polamalu, who took on a more visible presence during the offseason, showing up at organized team activities — which he usually skips — to fill the void left by the departure of players like Farrior. “This team changed more than ever because of its loss of leadership,” Polamalu said. “This is a different personality team than it was in the past.” Perhaps nowhere is that change more evident than at wide receiver, where Antonio Brown seems poised to replace Ward as the unit’s spokesman. It’s not a coincidence that Brown — who signed a six-year extension at the start of training camp — moved into Ward’s abandoned locker. Even Pro Bowl wide receiver Mike Wallace, who ended his lengthy holdout less than two weeks before the start of the regular season, allowed Brown has emerged as the leader of the self-proclaimed “Young Money Family.” Wallace’s holdout failed to produce the long-term contract he desires, but his return means Roethlisberger now has a full complement of weapons. The 30-year-old quarterback has developed a newfound maturity in the last two years. He was married last summer, earned his college degree from Miami (Ohio) during the offseason and announced he and his wife will welcome their first child this winter. Though Roethlisberger initially balked at the way Arians was ushered out the door, he’s embraced the diverse attack Haley hopes will make the Steelers one of the most explosive offenses in the league. No wonder the quarterback was so pumped when the speedy Wallace finally showed up. “It’s kind of like your parents telling you you get a new car then it has to sit in the driveway because you don’t have any insurance,” Roethlisberger said. “Once you get that insurance, you get out and take it for a ride.” One the Steelers hope doesn’t end until New Orleans.

Your classic organizational skills might be overwhelmed by everything that could fall on your plate. In some manner, you could feel taunted by many new options and find it difficult to rely on the conventional methods your life has been built on. Change often causes insecurity, but is a worthy risk. If you are single, your attractiveness to the opposite sex cannot be denied. The person you choose today could be different from who you might choose 10 months from now. Use care. If you are attached, the two of you sometimes feel out of sync. Know that you simply are approaching issues differently. Accept this. PISCES offers what you don’t. 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 Today’s Full Moon throws you into a tizzy of sorts. You might choose not to share what is going on. Focus on your daily routine in order to stay grounded. You might be better able to judge what is happening from this perspective. Tonight: Hang out your “Not Available” sign. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH You could encounter strong reactions from others. As you witness a lot of changes, you’ll feel at peace. You know how you feel and what you are going to do. Listen to what is being suggested, but ultimately count on yourself. Tonight: Where people are. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH You might want to understand where others are coming from, especially because they seem hyper. You want to help people, but in order for that to happen, they need to listen to your ideas. You are not in the mood to debate. Tonight: To the wee hours. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH Reach out for someone and understand where he or she is coming from. If this person becomes difficult, do not push. A little empathy will go much further. Maintain a sense of humor, yet keep communicating ... even if you feel frustrated. Tonight: Hang out. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH You could choose to juggle various concerns, and you might need to do just that. Today’s Full Moon is far more challenging than you realize, especially concerning others and anything involving finances. Nothing is written in stone at the moment. Be direct in your dealings. Tonight: Dance away your problems. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Your energy could determine the near future in certain relationships. The good news is that generally you’ll err on the side of caution. Where other signs could get into a pickle, you are unlikely to be reactive. Tonight: Out with that favorite person. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You might be struggling with all the demands of your daily life and the added high-voltage energy of today’s Full Moon. Know that this, too, will pass. Make no decisions, if possible. Play the waiting game until tomorrow. Tonight: Easy works. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH You enjoy living to the utmost and seeing what will happen. The Full Moon emphasizes this gregarious quality and your love for life. Take advantage of the moment, be it networking or just taking off for a special adventure with your best friend. Tonight: Live it up. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH You could see this moment as critical. Understand that the Full Moon is adding to the sense that this moment might be more important than it really is. Kick back, and do not feel pressured. You might want to stay close to home. Tonight: Make a favorite meal. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH You know what you want to do, and the Full Moon cheers you on. Do what you feel is needed, but save part of the day for you. Return calls, especially those that might intrigue you. News could be shocking. Tonight: At a favorite spot. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Observe what is happening with others. You do not need to play into the commotion; you actually might want to distance yourself. Use care when handling your funds. With all the frenetic energy in the air, you might run into an unexpected problem. Tonight: Join friends. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH The Full Moon in your sign throws certain opportunities and people in your direction. Even something that might feel problematic could work out fine. Your personality seems to prevent a problem from emerging. Tonight: Zero in on what you want.

It all began with a father and son, each devoted to serving the health needs of his neighbors. Health care in southern Ohio had a humble beginning with Dr. Charles E. Holzer Sr. opening a private seven-bed hospital opening at 507 Second Ave. in Gallipolis, the first in the region. In addition, Dr. Charles E. Holzer Jr. followed in his father’s footsteps and founded Holzer Clinic in 1950. Holzer has grown from the founding six physicians to a multi-discipline health care system, providing services in 15 locations throughout southeastern Ohio and western West Virginia, reaching the larger metropolitan areas in our region, Athens, Charleston and Huntington; a dental care facility in Jackson; multiple long-term care entities including senior care facility and assisted living establishments in Jackson and Gallipolis; over 150 providers with over 30 medical specialties; and numerous joint efforts including Holzer Center for Cancer Care, Hol- zer Cardiovascular Institute, Holzer Weight Loss Solutions and Holzer Center for Joint Replacement. Complete specialties and services can be found at www.holzer.org and www.holzerclinic.com. Holzer Health System is the largest, strongest healthcare system serving south central Ohio into West Virginia and Kentucky. Comprised of over 2,500 employees, providing jobs throughout southern Ohio and western West Virginia, Holzer’s range of services include inpatient hospital services, outpatient clinical needs, cardiovascular and cancer services, orthopedic procedures including joint replacement, weight loss needs, as well as an entire division devoted to long-term care including hospice, home care, extra care, assisted living and senior care services. Holzer Health System provides unparalleled access to leading technology, right here at home, partnered with caring and compassionate healthcare.
