Williams, 69 50 cents daily WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 2012 Vol. 62, No. 218 Middleport Council discusses Commissioners’ proposal Charlene Hoeflich choeflich@mydailysentinel.com MIDDLEPORT — A discussion on a Meigs County Commissioners’ proposal to hire Middleport Village to administer Rutland’s public works system highlighted a meeting of Middleport Village Council Monday night. In mentioning the proposal which apparently came from not only the Commissioners but also the Environmental Protec- tion Agency (EPA), Mayor Mike Gerlach emphasized that before anything is agreed to “it has to be profitable for the village … it has to work for us … it has to be beneficial to Middleport.” He said the final decision on any action has to be made by the Council. He also said that Middleport was selected as the best to administer Rutland’s system on the basis of experience. As Gerlach explained it, the Commissioners want to contract with Middleport to administer the sewage/water system in Rutland which the Commissioners are in the process of taking over from the Rutland Village administration. The water for the village comes from the Leading Creek Water System. The mayor said that an informational meeting with the Commissioners and EPA representatives has been scheduled for today (Wednesday). During the meeting at the request of Mick Childs, Council approved naming the bridge over Leading Creek in lower Middleport in honor of his late father, Bill Childs, a former Middleport Council member. The bridge, Gerlach reported, is owned by Meigs County. He said he contacted Gene Triplett, county engineer, who agreed to the bridge naming and volunteered to make the sign. A discussion was held on the AEP”s recent increase in rates for electricity and the possibility of using an alternative vendor offering a lower rate in order to save village money. Clerk/ Treasurer Susan Baker was authorized to explore different companies and rates and then make a choice of one offering a lower rate. Council approved bills of $10,834.81 and heard the mayor’s report of $5,824 in collections with the village share being $4,776. Council then moved into executive session to discuss legal matters with the village solicitor. Village to purchase new refuse truck Staff Report mdsnews@mydailysentinel.com RACINE — During a recent meeting, members of Racine Village Council approved the purchase of a new refuse truck. The lone bid received was from Tom’s Truck Sales of Manassas, Virginia, in the amount of $127,900. The truck is a 2013 Kenworth T370. According to council discussion, the price was a little better than was expected for the truck. Council approved the purchase by a 6-0 vote. The old truck is to be bid out to be sold. Council spoke with Ruth Frank about the property she owns in the village. The village had received reports of possible problems with the property. Mayor Scott Hill and several council members reported receiving complements on the sidewalk project recently completed in the village.

Ohio’s 2012 fall wild turkey hunting season was open Oct. 13-Nov. 25. This year’s total is a 2.5 percent decline from 2011, when hunters bagged 1,372 wild turkeys. The 2010 harvest total was 1,425. “Wild turkey hunting is a challenging activity that thousands of hunters enjoy year after year with family and friends,” said ODNR Director James Zehringer. “Ohio’s wild turkey population remains strong, and we appreciate those hunters who participated in the fall wild turkey season this year.” The top 11 counties for fall turkey harvest were: Ashtabula (61), Coshocton (56), Geauga and Tuscarawas (53 each), Knox (46), Clermont (42), Lick- ing (41), Guernsey (39), Holmes (38) as well as Adams and Richland (37 each). Ashtabula was also the top county in 2011, with 67 wild turkeys. Meigs County hunters harvested 30 turkeys, up from 15 last year. Gallia County hunters harvested 25 turkeys, down from 36 last year. Prior to the start of this fall’s hunting season, Ohio’s wild turkey population was approximately 180,000. More than 17,000 hunters, not including private landowners hunting on their own property, enjoyed Ohio’s fall wild turkey season. Hunters could pursue a wild turkey of either sex in 48 counties using a shotgun, muzzleloading shotgun, bow or crossbow. More information about Ohio wild turkey hunting can be found at wildohio. com.

There is such a high sensitivity in business to sexual harassment issues that you need to be very careful about your words and actions. It wouldn’t be the first time that someone used sex appeal and flirting to get ahead at the office, but solid business efforts and results would be a better path to promotion. That is not to say that if you have a naturally flirtatious nature you should try to stifle yourself and become someone you’re not. In fact, a new study by UC Berkeley Business School leaders found that flirting can be an effective strategy for women, as long as it is authentic, playful and friendly. The key to success is to project a confident attitude so it’s really not just about batting your eyelashes and hoping you’re cute. Flirting that results in office gossip shows that you had better refine your work-related skills before everything backfires.

In a 4-3 ruling, the divided high court upheld the map approved last year on grounds that Ohio’s Constitution does not require political neutrality in the process. Democrats, who brought the challenge on behalf of a group of voters, had argued the five-member Ohio Apportionment Board intentionally sought political advantage with the maps as prohibited in the constitution, in a maneuver known as gerrymandering. Republicans in the case argued the state constitution asks the map-drawing board to consider minimizing county, township, city and precinct splits but sets no absolute rule. The court ruled that opponents of the maps didn’t present convincing evidence the Republican-controlled apportionment board manipulated the districts for GOP political gain. “The role of a supreme court in considering constitutional challenges to an apportionment plan is restricted to determining whether relators have met their burden to prove that the plan adopted by the board is unconstitutional beyond a reasonable doubt,” Justice Terrence O’Donnell wrote for the majority. In his dissent, Justice Paul Pfeifer said the Constitution does not set the stringent proof standard perceived by the majority. “In order to justify its finding of constitutionality, the majority opinion expresses two conclusions of questionable legitimacy; these anchors of the majority opinion fail the tests of logic and fairness,” he wrote. “First the majority opinion erects a nearly insurmountable barrier to a successful constitutional challenge by assigning to the board’s actions a blanket presumption of constitutionality and requiring proof beyond a reasonable doubt to establish that the plan fails to meet all constitutional requirements. Pfeifer went on, “Proof beyond a reasonable doubt is typically necessary only in criminal cases. Such a high burden of proof in the current constitutional matter turns this court into a rubber stamp, not the guardian of the constitution that it is designed to be.” O’Donnell was joined in the majority by justices Judith Ann Lanzinger, Robert Cupp and John Willamowski, sitting in for Evelyn Lundberg Stratton, who had recused herself for unstated reasons. Pfiefer, Chief Justice Maureen O’Connor, and Justice Yvette McGee Brown, the court’s only Democrat, dissented. O’Connor signed both Pfeifer’s and McGee Brown’s dissenting opinions. Besides the proof burden, the majority cited limits in the court’s ability to judge legislative maps. “This court does not sit as a super apportionment board to determine whether a plan presented by the relators is better than the plan adopted by the board,” O’Donnell wrote. “Instead, we determine whether the board acted within the broad discretion conferred upon it by the provisions of (the Constitution) when it adopted its plan.” Ohio, like other states, redraws its congressional and legislative maps once every decade to reflect population shift records in the U.S. Census. The litigation says the latest state legislative map of 99 House and 33 Senate districts split cities, counties and other community units more than 250 times. Democrats said a more neutral map was possible that split only 30, rather than 50, of Ohio’s 88 counties. The Apportionment Board was made up of the governor, secretary of state, state auditor, Senate president and House minority party. In 2011, four of five of those were Republicans. The panel voted 4-1 along party lines in September 2011 on the map challenged in the lawsuit. During 2012 elections run using the new district boundaries, the GOP retained majorities in both legislative chambers. The court had delayed its ruling to keep from affecting the 2012 election — allowing the disputed map to remain in place for legislative races this fall. Voters First, a coalition of voter advocacy groups that advanced an unsuccessful 2012 ballot proposal to overhaul Ohio’s map-making process, found in a post-election analysis that 97 of 99 Ohio House districts went to the party favored by new district lines. They pointed to the review as proof that map makers, not voters, control Ohio elections. The apportionment lawsuit failed to name Apportionment Board member Armond Budish, the House Democratic leader who opposed the disputed maps, in a move questioned by a justice during oral arguments this April and scolded again in Tuesday’s opinion. The court said “it remains better practice” to name an entire board that’s being challenged regardless of how individual members voted. Pot-enjoying Ohio Neighbor arrested in killing defendant agrees to quit of abused Arkansas girl CINCINNATI (AP) — An avid marijuana user has agreed to give up his pastime to avoid a jail sentence from a judge who had been perplexed by his reluctance. Damaine Mitchell, 19, got credit for time served of 72 days for marijuana possession, ending that case. Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge Melba Marsh convicted him of possession Monday after ruling him not guilty of trafficking. Mitchell first had to pledge to stop smoking marijuana and to seek treatment. The local newspaper reported that Mitchell had told her earlier that he doubted he could stop smoking marijuana, which he’d been doing since age 10. During the earlier appearance this month, he stunned Marsh by asking if he could at least have one more marijuana joint. She said she refused to allow one “for old time’s sake.” On Monday, faced with a possible sentence of one year in prison, he told Marsh he knew he needed to “cut back on smoking marijuana.” Marsh replied: “Cut back?” “Stop, I need to stop,” Mitchell corrected himself. “I need treatment.” He agreed to treatment and will have a counselor visit him in jail, where he awaits a Dec. 6 appearance on a trespassing charge. Marsh had received several calls about the case, including from a man in Colorado who told the judge she was persecuting Mitchell and that he was welcome to move there. Voters in Colorado and Washington this month approved marijuana legalization measures. Mitchell appeared in court Monday wearing a white jail uniform, signifying he was working in the jail kitchen. The judge noticed that and asked: “You’re not cooking, are you?” He replied that he helps clean up, sweeping floors and wiping tables. “I was just wondering if you were making brownies or something,” Marsh said, drawing snickers in the courtroom. NJ Gov. Christie’s focus: Rebuilding, re-election MIDDLETOWN, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie plans to spend the next year leading efforts to rebuild his home state after Superstorm Sandy — and running for re-election. Christie announced his intention to seek a second term Monday, after telling his campaign treasurer to file papers so he can begin hiring campaign staff, selecting a headquarters and raising money toward his re-election. A formal announcement is expected in January. “It would be wrong for me to leave now. I don’t want to leave now,” Christie, 50, said Monday. “We have a job to do. That job won’t be finished by next year.” “The public needs to know that I’m in this for the long haul, that the person who has helped to lead them through the initial crisis wants to help lead them through the rebuilding and restoration of our state,” he said at a news briefing at a fire house in Middletown, where he had come to thank first responders and volunteers. The gubernatorial election is a year from now. The governor said he talked it over with his wife and four children, ages 9 to 19, over the weekend, and the decision that he should run was unanimous. So far, no one has stepped forward to challenge him as governor. Several Democrats, most prominently Newark Mayor Cory Booker, have been thinking aloud about running for their party’s nomination. Christie said he hadn’t spoken with Booker other than by text in about 10 days and he didn’t know the mayor’s political intentions. One recent public opinion poll ranked Booker as the Democrat who could come closest to beating the Republican governor. But a new poll released Tuesday shows six out of 10 registered voters now support a second term for Christie, up 15 points since September. The Rutgers-Eagleton poll also found the number of voters opposed to Christie’s re-election declined from nearly half in September to about a third now. Christie wins every hypothetical head-to-head matchup measured in the poll, including against Booker, who the poll has losing 34-53 percent with 13 percent choosing neither. Christie carried the Democratic-leaning state by 86,000 votes in 2009. Christie, who has become a national figure during his first term, is riding an unprecedented wave of popularity because of how he handled the storm, which he said Friday had caused more than $29 billion in damage in New Jersey. Even Democrats have applauded his hands-on response. He appeared on “Saturday Night Live” in his trademark fleece pullover this month to lampoon his own nationally televised storm briefings. About the only criticism directed his way since Superstorm Sandy attacked the coast in late October has come from fellow Republicans who have lambasted him for embracing President Barack Obama as the two toured New Jersey’s ravaged coastline six days before the presidential election. Some even blame Christie for tipping a close election to the president. Christie was the first governor to endorse Mitt Romney; he raised $18.2 million for the GOP nominee and crisscrossed the country as an in-demand surrogate for Republican candidates. Some are still questioning his party loyalty, however, as they did after Christie delivered the keynote address at the party’s nominating convention in Tampa. Critics saw that August speech as too much about Christie and not enough about Romney. The prospect of Christie seeking a second term became likely after he spurned overtures by Republican bigwigs to enter the 2012 presidential contest and more so when he later ruled himself out as vice presidential material with a resounding “I love the job I have now.” Buzz over a Christie 2016 run has become muted since the governor boarded Marine One with Obama. With the help of Democrats who control both houses of the state Legislature, Christie took on public worker unions, enacting sweeping pension and health benefits changes that cost workers more and are designed to shore up the underfunded public worker retirement and health care systems long term. Christie’s education reforms have been slower to accomplish, and Democrats have refused to budge on his signature issue for this year, a phased-in 10 percent tax cut. With tax collections underperforming the administration’s projections and storm rebuilding threatening to eat further into revenues, Democrats are unlikely to waver on their position that the state can’t afford the cut. Christie’s handling of the state’s struggling economy, a potential Achilles heel, has taken a back seat to the storm recovery. But unemployment remains a stubborn 9.7 percent, or 1.6 percent above the national jobless rate, and it’s too early to tell whether tax collections will rebound to match administration projections for the fiscal year that began in July. BENTONVILLE, Ark. (AP) — A neighbor has been arrested as a suspect in the killing of a 6-year-old Arkansas girl whose high-profile child abuse case last year sent her father and stepmother to prison, police said. Jersey Bridgeman was reported missing the morning of Nov. 20. Minutes after a search for her began, Jersey’s body was discovered in an abandoned house two doors from her home in Bentonville. Zachary Holly, 28, who lives next door to where Jersey was staying, is being held in the Benton County Jail on charges of capital murder, kidnapping and residential burglary, police Chief Jon Simpson said Monday night. Simpson said Holly will have a bail and probable cause hearing Wednesday, during which a probable cause affidavit will be released. At that point, “many questions related to this investigation and arrest will be answered,” Simpson said. He did not release details of how Jersey died or what led police to Holly. Simpson said work by the State Crime Lab helped speed the arrest. Jersey’s short life was checkered with discomfort. About a year before her death, her father and stepmother were charged with abuse after investigators discovered they had chained her to a dresser to stop her wandering around the house at night. David Bridgeman, Jersey’s father, told investigators he restrained his daughter to prevent her from getting into medication and other things around the house. David and Jana Bridgeman, Jersey’s stepmother, pleaded guilty in June to false imprisonment, permitting abuse of a minor and endangering the welfare of a minor. Jana Bridgeman is serving a 12-year prison sentence, plus three years for a probation revocation. David Bridgeman is serving an 18-year prison sentence. Police Capt. Justin Thompson said there was “no reason … for the community to be worried at this point,” but otherwise revealed little more about the homicide investigation in Bentonville some 215 miles northwest of Little Rock. 60373204 �The Daily Sentinel Opinion Page 4 Wednesday, November 28, 2012 Influence game: Tax them, not us, groups say Big bill for levee upkeep comes to New Orleans Charles Babington, NEW ORLEANS — In the busy and under-staffed offices of New Orleans’ flood-control leaders, there’s an uneasy feeling about what lies ahead. By the time the next hurricane season starts in June of 2013, the city will take control of much of a revamped protection system of gates, walls and armored levees that the Army Corps of Engineers has spent about $12 billion building. The corps has about $1 billion worth of work left. Engineers consider it a Rolls Royce of flood protection — comparable to systems in seaside European cities such as St. Petersburg, Venice, Rotterdam and Amsterdam. Whether the infrastructure can hold is less in question than whether New Orleans can be trusted with the keys. The Army Corps estimates it will take $38 million a year to pay for upkeep, maintenance and operational costs after it’s turned over to local officials. Local flood-control chief Robert Turner said he has questions about where that money will come from. At current funding levels, the region will run out of money to properly operate the high-powered system within a decade unless a new revenue source is found. “There’s a price to pay for resiliency,” the levee engineer said from his office at the Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection Authority-East. “We can’t let pieces of this system die away. We can’t be parochial about it.” On Nov. 6, New Orleans voters were faced with one of their first challenges on flood protection when they voted on renewal of a critical levee tax. The tax levy was approved, meaning millions of dollars should be available annually for levee maintenance. Bob Bea, a civil engineer at the University of California, said the region must find additional money to keep the system working The Associated Press WASHINGTON — A big coalition of business groups says there must be give-and-take in the negotiations to avoid the “fiscal cliff” of massive tax increases and spending cuts. But raising tax rates — a White House priority — is out of the question, the group adds. The homebuilding industry says it won’t tolerate even a nick in the mortgage interest deduction. It doesn’t matter, industry leaders say, if it’s part of a broad, spread-the-pain package designed to tame the soaring debt. And there’s no ambiguity in the views of the top lobbying arm for retirees. “AARP to Washington: No cuts to Medicare and Social Security in lastminute budget deal” the group’s Web site declares. AARP nixes the notion of slowing the cost-of-living formula for Social Security recipients, even if it’s part of a big, bipartisan compromise package. And President Barack Obama should drop his idea of raising Medicare’s eligibility age, AARP adds. So much for the notion of shared sacrifice as Congress and the White House face a Dec. 31 deadline to craft a far-reaching deficitreduction plan. If they fail, the government tips over the so-called fiscal cliff, at least for a time. Nearly everyone’s taxes will rise, and federal programs will be whacked. Financial markets might quake, and a new recession could begin, economists say. In Washington, meanwhile, it’s virtually every group for itself, scrambling to protect 100 percent of each tax break and government payout it now enjoys. America is split down the middle politically, as the last half dozen presidential races have shown. Aside from a few think tanks and civic-minded groups, there’s almost no talk of splitting the pain among interest groups, populations and professions in a manner that seems inevitable if lawmakers are to achieve the trillions of dollars in deficit-reduction both parties call for. The old adage, “Don’t tax thee, don’t tax me, tax the man behind the tree” was never more in vogue. Of course, some of the tough talk may be posturing. No one wants to show a willingness to compromise at the start of a long, tough negotiating season. Still, the adamant positions that major interest groups are taking — and their insistence that sacrifices hit others, not them — underscore the difficulty Obama and congressional leaders face. The tougher a group talks to its members and the public, the harder it is to back down later when a bit of shared pain for everyone emerges as the only path to a deal. The line-in-the-sand talk begins, of course, with top politicians themselves. “Raising tax rates is unacceptable,” House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said shortly after Obama won re-election. He seemed unfazed by Obama’s campaign promise to let the Bush-era tax cuts expire for couples making over $250,000 a year. Washington insiders think both men might bend, as they did last year when they nearly struck a “grand bargain” combining major spending cuts with tax increases. Boehner’s conservative colleagues rebelled before the package took final shape. Boehner’s House caucus seems slightly less restive now. But outside groups are gearing up to fight virtually every idea being floated to reduce spending or raise revenues. To reach a deficit-cutting package big enough to replace the fiscal cliff, lawmakers will have to stare down these groups, which pour mil- The Daily Sentinel Reader Services Correction Policy Our main concern in all stories is to be accurate.

Interest groups, like many politicians, talk warmly of compromise in the abstract. But they dig in when the talk turns to specific ideas that run counter to their philosophies or profitability. AARP is equally firm in opposing changes to Social Security and Medicare, the mammoth “entitlement” programs that economists say must be reined in soon to avoid disastrously large deficits in future years. Seventeen months ago, AARP showed more flexibility. Its policy chief said the group would consider modest cuts in Social Security for future retirees, noting that such changes seem all but inevitable at some point. AARP members complained, the official left, and the organization resumed the stance it holds today: no reductions in Social Security or Medicare benefits. Itemized tax deductions are another area where Democrats and Republicans are looking for possible ways to generate more government revenue. Here, too, powerful lobbying groups are rallying to oppose any changes that would cost their members money. “We urge you and House leaders not to impose any limits or caps to the charitable deduction,” the Charitable Giving Coalition said in a recent letter to Boehner and others. Like other interest groups, this one says it has special attributes that set it apart. “The charitable deduction is different than other itemized deductions in that it encourages individuals to give away a portion of their income to those in need,” the letter said. And so it goes, group by group, tax break by tax break, payout by payout. Everyone is special. Everyone is deserving.

Ray Bergeron, owner of Fleur De Lis Car Care, a service station in the Lakeview neighborhood where water rose to rooftops after levees collapsed during Hurricane Katrina in August 2005. Before Katrina, Bergeron said the local levee boards were complacent. “They told everybody everything was fine, ‘oh yeah, it’s fine. Let’s go have martinis and lunch.’” After Katrina, the locally run levee boards that oversaw the area’s defenses were vilified, and quickly replaced by the regional levee district run by Turner. Congressional investigations found the old Orleans Levee Board more interested in managing a casino license and two marinas than looking after levees. Though the Army Corps of Engineers had responsibility for annual levee inspections, the local levee boards were responsible for maintenance. Still, the boards spent millions of dollars on a fountain and overpasses rather than on levee protection. And there was confusion over who was responsible for managing the fragmented levee system, U.S. Senate investigations revealed. Still, experts generally agree the old levee board’s failings did not cause the levees to collapse during Katrina. Poor levee designs by the corps and the sheer strength of Katrina get the lion’s share of the blame. Since the Flood Control Act of 1936, the Army Corps has given local or state authorities oversight of water-control projects, whether earthen levees in the Midwest or beach walls in New England. “That’s been the eternal problem with flood-protec- tion systems,” said Thomas Wolff, an engineer at Michigan State University. “You build something very good and then give it to local interests who are not as wellfunded.” New Orleans is an unusual case because the area is inheriting the nation’s first-of-its-kind urban flood control system. “We’ve given a very expensive system to a place that may not be able to afford it over the long term,” said Leonard Shabman, an Arlington, Va.-based water resources expert. Letting the Army Corps run it isn’t much of a solution either, he added. The nation has spent lavishly on fixing the system in the seven years since Katrina flooded 80 percent of New Orleans and left 1,800 people dead. “It is better than what the Dutch have for the types of storms we have,” said Carlton Dufrechou, a member of the board of the Lake Pontchartrain Basin Foundation, which monitors local environmental issues. The biggest headaches are several mega-projects with lots of moving parts, all needing constant upkeep. The corps is building them across major waterways that lead into New Orleans. Take for instance the 1.8-mile-long, 26-foot-high surge barrier southeast of the French Quarter that blocks water coming up from the Gulf of Mexico across lakes and into the city’s canals. Water from this direction doomed the Lower 9th Ward and threatened to flood the French Quarter. Maintaining this giant wall alone will cost $4 million or more a year. Col. Ed Fleming, the New Orleans corps commander, said his outfit will work to ensure the transition to local control is smooth. “This happens with corps civil projects all over the country. That’s the way it works in Iraq, Afghanistan,” he said. “We have authority to build, but we have no authority to do operations and maintenance.” The Daily Sentinel Ohio Valley Publishing Co. 111 Court Street Pomeroy, Ohio Phone (740) 992-2156 Fax (740) 992-2157 www.mydailysentinel.com Sammy M.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Emerging from a closed-door meeting, three Republican senators said Tuesday they are more troubled than ever with comments made days after the deadly Sept. 11 raid in Libya by Susan Rice, the U.N. ambassador and President Barack Obama’s possible choice for secretary of state. Sens. John McCain, Lindsey Graham and Kelly Ayotte met privately with Rice and acting CIA Director Michael Morell for more than an hour on her much-maligned explanations of the attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, that killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans. Ayotte said Rice told the lawmakers that her comments in a series of national television interviews five days after the attack were wrong. However, that failed to mollify the three lawmakers, who have talked about blocking her nomination if the president taps her to succeed Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. “We are significantly troubled by many of the answers that we got and some that we didn’t get concerning evidence that was leading up to the attack on the consulate and the tragic death of four brave Americans and whether Ambassador Rice was prepared, or informed sufficiently, to give the American people the correct depiction of the events that took place,” McCain told reporters. Said Graham: “Bottom line I’m more disturbed now than I was before that 16 September explanation.” The three insisted that they need more information about the Libyan raid before they even consider Rice as a possible replacement for Clinton. “I’m more troubled today,” said Ayotte, who argued that it was clear in the days after the attack that it was terrorism and not a spontaneous demonstration prompted by an anti-Muslim video. Despite lingering questions over her public comments after the Benghazi attack, Rice has emerged “We are significantly troubled by many of the answers that we got and some that we didn’t get concerning evidence that was leading up to the attack on the consulate and the tragic death of four brave Americans and whether Ambassador Rice was prepared, or informed sufficiently, to give the American people the correct depiction of the events that took place.” —Sen. John McCain On Susan Rice’s comments after Sept. 11 raid in Libya as the front-runner on a short list of candidates to succeed Clinton, with Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., seen as her closest alternative. The strong statements from the three senators clouded Rice’s prospects only two days after Republican opposition seem to be softening. Rice planned meetings on Wednesday with Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee, who is in line to become the top Republican on the Foreign Relations Committee, and Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine. Corker said Tuesday that he had concerns with a possible nomination. “When I hear Susan talk she seems to me like she’d be a great chairman of the Democratic National Committee,” Corker said. “There is nobody who is more staff supportive of what the administration does. That concerns me in a secretary of state.” Rice’s series of meetings on Capitol Hill will be a critical test both for Republicans, who will decide whether they can support her, and the administration, which must gauge whether Rice has enough support to merit a nomination. A senior Senate aide said the administration was sounding out moderate members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, such as Corker and Sen. Johnny Isakson, R-Ga. Assessing the prospects for Rice before Obama makes any announcement would avoid the embarrassment of a protracted fight with the Senate early in the president’s second term and the possible failure of the nominee. Rice is scheduled to meet with Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., her most vocal critic on Capitol Hill, and Sen. Kelly Ayotte, RN.H. McCain and Ayotte are members of the Senate Armed Services Committee. On talk shows the weekend following the attack, which took place on the 11th anniversary of 9/11, Rice was given talking points that described the attack as a spontaneous protest of the film, even though the Obama administration had known for days that it was a militant assault. Republicans called her nomination doomed, leading to a vigorous defense of her by Obama in his first postelection news conference. Since then, GOP lawmakers have appeared to soften their views. McCain, who said earlier this month that would he do everything in his power to scuttle a Rice nomination, said Sunday that he was willing to hear Rice out before making a decision. Sen. Jim Inhofe, ROkla., a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, had issued a statement highly critical of Rice on the day of Obama’s news conference. He indicated Monday that perhaps she didn’t know what had transpired in Benghazi on the day of the attack. “I assumed she had full knowledge of everything that went on. I’m not at all convinced of that now. She very well could have been thrown under the bus,” Inhofe said in an interview. He said she hadn’t requested a meeting but he would be glad to meet with her. White House spokesman Jay Carney said Monday that the administration appreciated McCain’s latest comments about Rice, but wouldn’t say whether the president saw them as an opening to make the nomination. “Ambassador Rice has done an excellent job at the United Nations and is highly qualified for any number of positions,” Carney said. Several diplomats currently serving with Rice said that what she lacked in Clinton’s star power, she could make up with a blunter approach that demands attention and has marked her tenure thus far at the United Nations. Rice, who at 48 is relatively young, has been known to covet the job for years, but was passed over for Clinton in 2009. Since arriving in New York, she can point to a series of diplomatic achievements — most notably the NATO-led air campaign that toppled Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi and tougher sanctions against Iran and North Korea over their nuclear programs. But Rice has also been criticized — along with other Security Council leaders — for the failure of the U.N.’s most powerful body to take action to end the 19-month civil war in Syria. Ohio mom, 20, held in slaying of 3-year-old son CLEVELAND (AP) — Police in Cleveland are awaiting results of an autopsy on a 3-year-old boy whose 20-year-old mother is being held as a suspect in his slaying. Police said Camilia Terry was arrested Monday after the body of her son, Emilliano Terry, was found in trash bags at a waste processing site. She initially had reported the child missing from a city park Sunday. Investigators said Camilia Terry’s story changed during questioning, leading them to suspect that she was involved. FBI agents stopped a garbage truck while searching the neighborhood. That led to the discovery of the body inside trash bags that had been picked up from a garbage bin near the family’s apartment building. Terry’s two other boys, ages 5 and 5 months, are in the custody of social services. Weather Wednesday: Sunny, with a high near 46. Calm wind becoming west 5 to 8 mph in the morning.

A 7-0 run over the final 2:16 of regulation ultimately allowed Ironton to claim a 57-55 victory over visiting River Valley in the season-opening girls basketball game for both clubs in Lawrence County. The Lady Raiders (0-1) led 55-50 with just over two minutes remaining, but the host Lady Ti- gers (1-0) rallied to knot things up at 55-all after Lexi Barrier drained a three-pointer with 42 seconds left in the fourth. Both teams came away emptyhanded on their ensuing possessions, but RVHS committed a turnover on an inbounds pass — giving Ironton the ball with five seconds remaining. Carrier provided the home heroics with a successful 15-footer just before the buzzer, allowing IHS to complete its rally and claim a twopoint decision. River Valley outrebounded the hosts by a 40-35 margin and sank 22-of-29 free throws in the setback. RVHS was 15-of-41 from the field for 37 percent, including a 3-of-11 effort (27 percent) from three-point range. The Lady Raiders also had 28 turnovers, a dozen more than Ironton (16). Leia Moore paced River Valley with 18 points and 10 rebounds, followed by Cady Gilmore with 15 points and Shelby Brown with nine markers. Chelsea Copley added eight points, while Shalin Comer chipped in three points. Justyce Stout and Rachael Smith rounded things out for the guests with a point apiece. Brown had eight rebounds and two assists, while Gilmore added two steals and two assists. Barrier led IHS with 13 points, followed by Lexie Washington with 12 markers and Ariel Schweickart with 10 points. Ironton was 24-of-67 from the field for 36 percent, including a 3-of-16 performance from behind the arc for 19 percent. The Lady Tigers were also 6-of-11 at the charity stripe for 55 percent. Washington led the hosts with eight caroms and five steals, while Schweickart and Karlee McMackin each dished out three assists. Ironton led 16-15 after eight minutes, but an 11-8 second quarter charge gave the guests a 26-24 edge at the break. IHS outscored the Lady Raiders 1512 in the third for a 39-38 lead headed into the finale. Ironton gained a small 18-17 edge down the stretch to wrap up the onepossession outcome. Ball leads all-Big Ten selections Buckeyes’ Miller named top QB PARK RIDGE, Ill. (AP) — Career touchdown leader Montee Ball of Wisconsin was selected the Big Ten’s top running back for the second straight year and was a first-team allconference pick by both the coaches and media. The announcement Monday came two days after he became the NCAA’s all-time leader in touchdowns. He set the record with his 79th TD when he scored on a 17-yard run Saturday against Penn State. With 1,528 yards rushing and 18 touchdowns this season, it was hardly a surprise that the coaches and media both picked Ball. They also went with conference rushing leader Le’Veon Bell of Michigan State (1,648 yards), but they were split at quarterback. The media went with Ohio State’s Braxton Miller and the coaches choosing Nebraska’s Taylor Martinez. Miller got the top QB award. The coaches and media also agreed on the top receivers, going with Penn State’s Allen Robinson and Wisconsin’s Jared Abbrederis at receiver. Rounding out the first team on offense for the coaches was Penn State’s Matt Stankiewitch at center; Michigan’s Patrick Omameh, Nebraska’s Spencer Long and Penn State’s John Urschel at guard; Michigan’s Taylor Lewan and Wisconsin’s Rick Wagner at tackle; Jacob Pedersen of Wisconsin at tight end; and Northwestern’s Jeff Budzien at kicker.

Hayman Gymnasium. Eastern’s defense forced the hosts into 30 turnovers during the contest which led to many fastbreak opportunities. EHS (1-0, 1-0 TVC Hocking) began the game with a 8-0 run before the Lady Tornadoes (0-1, 0-1) got on the board with two points at the 5:45 mark. The Lady Eagles finished the opening stanza with a 13-0 run and led 21-2 after eight minutes. The teams traded baskets for the first 1:30 of the second quarter before EHS went on a 15-6 run to end the half. The Lady Eagles held the 38-12 advantage at the break. Eastern opened the second half with a 10-0 run that lasted nearly three minutes. EHS ended the quarter with a 10-3 run and led 5815. The Lady Eagles held Southern scoreless over the final eight minutes, while scoring 15 points of their own en route to a 73-15 victory. Jordan Parker led the Lady Eagles with 25 points on 12-of15 from the field, 10 steals, eight rebounds and seven assists. Jenna Burdette finished with 18 points on 8-of-13 shooting, six assists and six steals, while Maddie Rigsby scored 10 points on 5-of-8 shooting with five steals. Erin Swatzel was 4-of-13 from the field for nine points, and led the Lady Eagles with 16 rebounds, 11 offensive, on the night. Savannah Hawley had eight points on three of six shooting with four steals, Tori Goble had three points on 1-of-5 from the field, while Katie Keller contributed with four rebounds in the game.

You even might feel like a human seesaw of sorts. For some of you, a person in your inner circle could try to reflect the opposite opinion of what you choose. Instead of using black-and-white thinking, try to see that both viewpoints could work, and strive to find some middle ground. If you are single, you could meet someone significant to your life history, but you could have difficulty with the differences between you. If you are attached, resist the urge to fight with the one you love. GEMINI can challenge you. 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) HHHH The unexpected occurs, like it or not. You might feel as if you can’t make a situation conform to your expectations — or anyone else’s, for that matter. Stop attempting to handle this issue, and just let it flow naturally. Tonight: Make calls before deciding. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH If ever there was a time not to make a money commitment, it is today. Use care, even when counting your change. If you feel as though you are fiscally careless in some area, decide to change that pattern — if not immediately, then in the very near future. Tonight: A lucky turn of events. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH You could be overwhelmed by everything that is happening right now; however, know that you might be the linchpin in this case. Though at first you might not be able to get a grasp on the situation, you will, and faster than you think. Tonight: Enjoy the rollercoaster ride. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Full Moons greatly affect you, as your planetary ruler is the Moon. This particular Full Moon is an eclipse, which promises changes in the next few months with a child or a relationship. The outcome could be very good. Go with the flow, and take it easy. Tonight: Listen well. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH Something that you want might fall into your lap in a most secretive manner ... perhaps not today, but in the near future. A friend could complicate your life. It is up to you whether you will make a fuss about it or just let it go. Remain focused on a different matter in the meantime. Tonight: Celebrate. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Decide to loosen up rather than fight city hall. A boss could be demanding, which might cause a conflict for you with someone who has other plans. At the moment, you are seeing the situation as black and white. Try to find a way in which both demands can be met. Tonight: A must appearance. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH The unexpected marks a situation. You might be trying to hold on to something that really isn’t doable at the moment. Let it go. News from a distance might impress you, or at least make you smile. Know that you are heading in the right direction. Tonight: Act on an idea. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH You could be seeing a lot of back-and-forth in several of your more substantial friendships. Know that there is very little you can do to change this. Remain true to yourself, yet be willing to discuss a financial matter with a key person. Tonight: Say “yes” to an offer. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Having to juggle mixed energy, incoming requests and some irrational behavior could throw anyone off. Remain focused on what’s most important, and you will weather the storm. Stay on top of these hassles and allow greater give-and-take. Tonight: Go with someone’s suggestion. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Pace yourself, and you’ll accomplish a lot more than you thought possible. Understand that you might need to cut someone off or ignore a situation altogether in order to do this. Avoid getting involved in others’ issues; use this day for you. Tonight: Get some exercise. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You see a situation differently from others. You often come up with some far-fetched ideas, and this is yet another example. Your drive and energy help you turn an important idea into reality. Friendship will prevail, even if a quarrel begins. Tonight: Spend time with a favorite person. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Stay anchored, know what is happening and make choices accordingly. You could be a little offkilter because of what someone does. Understand that you do not need to put yourself in the line of fire; instead, you can withdraw and refuse to take part in this person’s scenario. Tonight: Happiest at home. Jacqueline Bigar is on the Internet at www.jacquelinebigar.com. �Wednesday, November 28, 2012 The Daily Sentinel • Page 10 www.mydailysentinel.com Year-old meeting resonates in Ohio State at Duke COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Thad Matta jokes that he has a secret weapon going into No. 4 Ohio State’s ACC/Big Ten Challenge showdown on Wednesday night at No. 2 Duke. Greg Paulus, in his second year as the Buckeyes’ video coordinator, was one of the Blue Devils’ patented scrappy point guards from 2006-09. He’s diagrammed where all the dead spots are on the floor at legendary Cameron Indoor Stadium. “He’s got it all mapped out,” Matta said, trying to hold back a grin. “There’s a big chart with pins stuck in it.” Instead of the nuances of the old gym, the Buckeyes are concerned more with how they play and how that measures up against the mighty Blue Devils in a key game for both teams. EHS Holiday Biddy Basketball Tourney TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio — The boys and girls basketball teams at Eastern High School will be hosting a Biddy Basketball Tournament for both boys and girls teams in grades 4-6 at the EHS gymnasium. The fundraiser event will start on Saturday, Dec. 22, and run through Sunday, Dec. 30. The deadline to enter a team is Monday, Dec. 17.

I’ve had my butt kicked before. We’ve kicked some butt. Tonight my butt’s sore.” As forgettable as that night was for the Blue Devils, it became a constant reminder to the Buckeyes (4-0). Throughout a 31-8 season that took them all the way to the Final Four, when things got tough they would fall back on what they did against Duke. “I wouldn’t say that game was easy,” guard Lenzelle Smith Jr. said. “I just think it was a defining moment for our team. Coach (Matta) talks all the time about five guys being connected. It doesn’t matter what team we would have played that game. I don’t think anybody could have beaten us we were so connected. No one cared about anything other than winning that basketball game. “Everybody had a job to do and everybody was focused on their job only.” Of course, Ohio State’s players have played in a lot of difficult places, from Allen Fieldhouse in Kansas to Michigan State’s Breslin Center and dozens of others. But a good performance at Cameron Indoor still counts for a lot. “We have a lot of guys like Lenzelle, myself, Deshaun (Thomas) and Evan Ravenel who have been in (difficult) situations and understand what it’s like. Some of the younger guys have been there but haven’t experienced playing in it,” point guard Aaron Craft said. Bengals finally get running game moving CINCINNATI (AP) — The Bengals’ offense is developing into a lot more than just Daltonto-Green, one of the main reasons they’re back in the playoff chase. Finally, they’ve figured out how to run the ball. Cincinnati has won three lopsided games in a row largely because the running game has finally gotten in gear. After struggling to find running room for the first half of the season, BenJarvus GreenEllis has put together 100-yard rushing games the last two weeks. Green-Ellis ran for a season-high 129 yards during a 34-10 win over the Raiders on Sunday that included the two longest runs of his career — 48 and 39 yards. The difference is noticeable. “Confidence plays a big role,” offensive coordinator Jay Gruden said. “Those guys love to run the ball and it takes the pressure off the quarterback. When you have success running the ball, guys come off (the snap) harder. “You can see our running game fluctuates from week to week, but they are buying into the system and doing a great job.” The Bengals (6-5) head to San Diego this weekend trying to stay in the mix for a playoff spot. They’re tied with Pittsburgh for the AFC’s second wild card, although the Steelers won their David Eullitt | Kansas City Star | MCT photo Cincinnati’s BenJarvus Green-Ellis (42) runs past Kansas Citys Tamba Hali (91) on Sunday, Nov. 18 in Kansas City, Mo. head-to-head meeting at Paul Brown Stadium this season. It should be a much tougher test in San Diego. The Bengals ran for a season-high 189 yards overall in a 28-6 win over Kansas City, which has only one victory all season. They followed that with 221 yards rushing against the Raiders, who have lost four straight and given up the most points in the NFL. The Chargers are tied for fifthbest run defense in the league, along with the Steelers. “We’ve got to keep this going,” quarterback Andy Dalton said. “The running game has done a great job the last two weeks. We’ve got to keep the balance.” The run game has improved as the middle of the line has developed. The Bengals suffered two significant injuries on the line during preseason. Left guard Travelle Wharton suffered a season-ending knee injury during the first preseason game. Center Kyle Cook hurt his right ankle in the final preseason game and needed surgery. Rookie Kevin Zeitler was given the starting job at right guard in preseason. Cincinnati signed center Jeff Faine only 10 days before the opener. When he suffered a hamstring injury, rookie Trevor Robinson took over. With all the changes, the running attack suffered. Green-Ellis was held under 70 yards in five of the first eight games, forcing Dalton to look for Pro Bowl receiver A.J. Green more than the Bengals would have liked. “It is tough,” Zeitler said. “We had to rely so much on our pass game early and just defenses could focus on that area more. But now that that’s going, it really helps open everything up and the offensive output has gone up, especially during the win streak.” It’s helped that defenses are giving Green a lot of attention lately, using a safety to help with double coverage instead of bunching more players at the line to worry about the run. Green-Ellis was able to break those long runs — backup Cedric Peerman also had a 31-yard gain — because the Raiders’ secondary was more worried about the pass. “Guys have to respect A.J.,” Peerman said. “He’s a phenomenal playmaker. You throw the ball up to him, he’s going to come down with it. That definitely helps us out in the running game. He’s just done a phenomenal job.” John got in the game with a wide range of sports, movies and more & saved up to $850!

That’s about the only concession the Buckeyes have made to the game beyond a series of hard practices. Hanging over the matchup is the specter of last year’s meeting between the teams. When No. 3 Duke played at secondranked Ohio State, the Buckeyes couldn’t do anything wrong and the Blue Devils could do nothing right. Ohio State scored the first 11 points, led by 19 at the half and was on top by as many as 25 in what ended up as an 85-63 landslide. Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said his team was tired and overwhelmed.
