Starting June 6, the Ohio Department of Transportation closed a small section of Ohio 124 south of Antiquity in Letart Township near Blind Hollow Road for slip repair. ODOT is spending $95,525.70 to repair the slip which has been an ongoing problem in the area and was compounded by the spring’s heavy rains. The job, which is under construction by Alan Stone Company of Cutler, is set to be completed by Aug. 21 - repairing the slip isn’t the issue with some local farmers but rather the detour or lack thereof, as some see it. ODOT’s official detour for the project is Ohio 124 at Rock Springs to US 33 to Ohio 124 in the Great Bend Area which some residents feel is the long way around the area unfortunately, these are the closest roads ODOT has jurisdiction over to declare a detour.

This week, Pomeroy Village Council approved entering into an agreement with the Ohio Department of Transportation which will take the lead in the administrative aspects of the project. However, the village will be advertising the project for bid and approving the contractor. Bill Lambert with ODOT, suggested the village start the bidding process mid-July to the first of August. The projected cost is $348,119 with $250,000 in grant funds secured from the Appalachian Regional Commission and the remainder funded by the Community Improvement Corporation which owns the property the road will sit on. Once completed, the road will become the village’s property. Lambert said the road is approximately 850 feet long and if a person faces Taco Bell from Ohio 833, the road will run to the left of the restaurant. Lambert also told council the ARC requires the project be under contract within 18 months of being awarded funding - the funding was awarded last August. Councilman Vic Young said residents had noticed erosion under the retaining wall of the Bridge of Honor and Village Administrator Paul Hellman said there was currently a hole near the site big enough to “drive a truck through.” Hellman said the village would check to see if a drain near the site was plugged and needed cleaned. Hellman also reported the generator which provides backup power to the village’s water plant was not working after the village paid over $1,000 to have it repaired recently.

Afghan police were battling the assailants with machine-gun fire and rocket-propelled grenades as tracer rounds went up over the blacked out building. Associated Press reporters at the scene heard bursts of gunfire and saw shooting from the roof of the five-story Inter-Continental hotel, which is frequented by Afghan political leaders and foreign visitors. Police ordered bystanders to lay on the ground for safety. There was no immediate word on casualties in the rare, nighttime attack in the Afghan capital. Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid claimed responsibility in a telephone call to the AP. A guest who was inside said he heard gunfire echoing throughout the building. The hotel sits on a hill overlooking the city and streets leading up to it were blocked. The scene was dark as electricity at the hotel was out. Azizullah, an Afghan police officer who uses only one name, told an Associated Press reporter at the scene that at least one bomber entered the hotel and detonated a vest of explosives. Another police officer, who would not disclose his name, said there were at least two suicide bombers. Jawid, a guest at the hotel, said he jumped out a one-story window to flee the shooting. "I was running with my family," he said. "There was shooting. The restaurant was full with guests." The Inter-Continental ‚Äî known widely as the "Inter-Con" opened in the late 1960s, was the nation's first international luxury hotel. It has at least 200 rooms and was once part of an international chain. But when the Soviets invaded Afghanistan in 1979, the hotel was left to fend for itself. It was used by Western journalists during the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan in 2001. On Nov. 23, 2003, a rocket exploded nearby, shattering windows but causing no casualties. Twenty-two rockets hit the Inter-Con between 1992 and 1996, when factional fighting convulsed Kabul under the government of Burhanuddin Rabbani. All the windows were broken, water mains were damaged and the outside structure pockmarked. Some, but not all, of the damage was repaired during Taliban rule. Attacks in the Afghan capital have been relatively rare, although violence has increased since the May 2 killing of Osama bin Laden in a U.S. raid in Pakistan and the start of the Taliban's annual spring offensive. On June 18, insurgents wearing Afghan army uniforms stormed a police station near the presidential palace and opened fire on officers, killing nine. Late last month, a suicide bomber wearing an Afghan police uniform infiltrated the main Afghan military hospital, killing six medical students. A month before that, a suicide attacker in an army uniform sneaked past security at the Afghan Defense Ministry, killing three people. Other hotels in the capital have also been targeted. In January 2008, militants stormed Kabul's most popular luxury hotel, the Serena, hunting down Westerners who cowered in a gym during a coordinated assault that killed eight people. An American, a Norwegian journalist and a Philippine woman were among the dead. A suicide car bomber in December 2009, struck near the home of a former Afghan vice president and a hotel frequented by Westerners, killing eight people and wounding nearly 40 in a neighborhood considered one of Kabul's safest. And in February 2010, insurgents struck two residential hotels in the heart of Kabul, killing 20 people including seven Indians, a French filmmaker and an Italian diplomat. Recipe for safe food: Clean, cook, chill, separate WASHINGTON (AP) — Clean. Cook. Chill. Separate. That’s the message of a new U.S. government campaign to raise awareness of safe food handling in the wake of a European E. coli outbreak that has killed almost 50 people. The campaign, launched just before the barbecue-heavy Fourth of July holiday, hopes to remind busy home chefs to clean off surfaces and utensils, wash hands, separate raw meats from other foods and cook meat to the right temperature, among other safety precautions. The ad blitz — it will be seen on television, in print and through social media — is spearheaded by the Ad Council, which is behind other famous government ad campaigns like “Friends don’t let friends drive drunk” and Smokey Bear’s efforts to stamp out forest fires. “This is just a good reminder to make sure that in the rush of trying to get the meal on the table you don’t forget one of these rules and put yourself at additional risk,” says Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack. The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 48 million people — or one in six Americans — are sickened every year by a foodborne illness. Of those, 180,000 are hospi- talized and 3,000 die. The last several years have seen high-profile outbreaks in peanuts, eggs and produce. The USDA is launching the campaign this week to get the message out as people plan holiday cookouts. Elisabeth Hagen, head of food safety at USDA, says consumers too often ignore the temperature of meat. Ground beef, which is more prone to pathogens than other cuts of beef, should always be cooked through to 160 degrees. Color is not always a reliable indicator. “The most important thing you can do is buy yourself a meat thermometer and use it,” Hagen says. Feds to brief families of W.Va. mine blast victims BEAVER, W.Va. (AP) — Federal investigators plan to release their latest findings about the Upper Big Branch mine explosion in a private briefing Tuesday for the families of 29 coal miners killed in the 2010 tragedy in southern West Virginia. Mine Safety and Health Administration officials are scheduled to meet with the families privately Tuesday evening at the agency’s academy in Beaver. A public briefing is set for Wednesday at the academy. The agency said last week it expects to provide information about physical evidence gathered from the Raleigh County mine as well as summaries of other evidence. Director Joe Main said in May the briefing will largely be an oral version of the agency’s final report. The April 5, 2010, explosion remains the subject of a criminal investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice. As a result, some information won’t be released at the briefings, MSHA said. MSHA also is still investigating, but officials said in January they believe the explosion started with a small methane gas ignition fueled by coal dust. The agency blamed a poorly maintained cutting head on a piece of mining equipment for sparking the blast and a malfunctioning water sprayer for failing to douse it. An independent investigation commissioned by former Gov. Joe Manchin reached the same conclusion last month. The independent report blamed former owner Massey Energy for ignoring the most basic safety practices in the industry, allowing highly explosive coal dust and methane gas to Excavation work includes: Driveways, Land Clearing, Ponds, Trenching, Reclamation, & Much More!

Like MSHA, the independent investigators determined a spark from the worn teeth on a cutting machine caused the initial explosion and broken water sprayers failed to douse the small fireball. MSHA spokeswoman Amy Louviere said the briefings will cover what the agency knows to date and are unlikely to waver from what’s been released so far, though potentially investigators could come across something else. Massey was acquired earlier this month by Alpha Natural Resources, which has not spoken publicly about what it thinks caused the explosion — the deadliest at a U.S. coal mine since 1970.

The Daily Sentinel • Page A2 Obama, Biden plan debt session with Senate Dems WASHINGTON (AP) — At least they're still talking. While President Barack Obama and congressional Republican leaders have publicly dug in their heels on critical debt-limit negotiations, Obama's spokesman said Tuesday the president and Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell will continue discussions. Obama and Vice President Joe Biden spent more time in the Oval Office on Monday with McConnell than they did with a fellow Democrat, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. The president and vice president have scheduled another meeting for Wednesday to consult with Reid — and also invited Sens. Dick Durbin and Charles Schumer, both members of the Democratic leadership team. The White House did not announce a new meeting with Republicans. But Obama spokesman Jay Carney called the meeting with McConnell "useful" and said that "importantly" they agreed to continue meeting. "They will continue to talk," McConnell spokesman Don Stewart had said after the meeting. But about what? To be sure, neither McConnell nor Obama is fond of small talk. Obama and Democrats insist that for there to be a deal on reducing long-term deficits, any agreement must include some tax increases on the wealthy or on corporations, mostly through closed loopholes. But before McConnell even walked into the white House, he had flatly rejected tax increases. "It's time Washington take the hit," he said, "not the taxpayers." That would seem to put a damper on the conversation. But the deal is crucial to winning congressional support for raising the government's borrowing limit, a step it must take by Aug. 2 to avoid a potential default. The current debt ceiling of $14.3 trillion would likely have to be increased by $2.4 trillion to last through the end of next year. Republicans want an equal amount in deficit reduction over the next 10 years and say they cannot support increasing the debt ceiling without a budget deal at the same time. "Compromise and an agreement will depend on each side being willing to accept some tough choices," Carney said Monday. Failure to raise the ceiling "would do serious damage," said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics, whose views are frequently cited by the Obama administration. "It will unhinge the already very fragile collective psyche." But Zandi said that if Republicans are being asked to give up their deepseated opposition to tax increases, then Obama needs to sacrifice as well by abandoning a major campaign promise, such as his demand that Congress end Bush-era tax cuts for wealthier Americans. Another option is for Obama to propose his own plan for further savings in Medicare. Republicans might find that appealing after the House Republican plan ran into broad public opposition and became a campaign issue for Democrats. "The president needs to take a chance himself, and do something that shows he's willing to give up something that's very large to move this forward," Zandi said in an interview. The president stepped up his personal involvement in negotiations after bipartisan talks led by Biden stalled last week. Republican lawmakers abandoned the negotiations, saying the issues still on the table had to be addressed by the president. Obama already has met privately with House Speaker John Boehner, ROhio, and with House Democrats. Until Friday, Biden had held a series of meetings over several weeks with bipartisan teams from the House and Senate, focusing on areas where the two sides were amenable to cuts until the dispute over taxes led Republicans to walk out. The White House is pushing for some tax increases on the wealthy or the elimination of tax breaks for big companies and wealthy individuals as part of a deficit-cutting plan. During the Biden-led negotiations, Democrats proposed about $400 billion in additional tax revenue, including ending subsidies to oil and gas companies, an idea that has failed previously in the Senate. The administration also would tax private equity or hedge fund managers at higher income tax rates instead of lower capital gains rates, change the depreciation formula on corporate jets, and limit itemized deductions for wealthy taxpayers. It also has called for repealing a tax benefit for an inventory accounting practice used by many manufacturers. All in all, Obama has proposed more than $600 billion in tax increases and would like a ratio of $1 in tax revenue for every $3 in spending reductions. "At the end of the day I would be surprised if it was that 1-to-3 ratio the White House was talking about," said Chris Krueger, a policy and politics analyst at MF Global's Washington Research Group. "That is probably a bridge too far for congressional Republicans. But I wouldn't be surprised if there a couple of ceremonial revenue raisers." While Republicans insist on no tax increases, they have been willing to consider other forms of revenue, particularly higher user fees. "Revenues have never been off the table," said Sen. Jon Kyl of Arizona, the Senate's Republican participant in the Biden talks. "There are some user fees that are probably way low compared to when they were originally set." Obama's budget wants $85 billion in new fees over 10 years, including raising the airline passenger security fee from a maximum of $5 per oneway trip to $11. Other proposals range from Food and Drug Administration food inspection fees to duck hunting fees. The $85 billion includes a federal auction of parts of the broadcast spectrum and the sale of surplus federal property. Complicating matters is the congressional schedule. While the Senate is in session, the House is off this week ahead of the July 4 holiday. The House is scheduled to return next week when the Senate will be away. That makes it difficult for leaders in both chambers to find consensus among their respective memberships. and businesses with little proof they are effective in creating jobs. The House is likely to approve the bill Wednesday. Gov. John Kasich has until Thursday to sign the measure. against Libya. The vote was 14-5 in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Tuesday. The resolution imposes a one-year limit on U.S. intervention and prohibits U.S. ground forces. The vote puts the panel at odds with the House and sends a muddled message from Congress about the NATO-led operation against Moammar Gadhafi's forces. Last Friday, the House overwhelmingly rejected a similar resolution.

B RO T H E R S Quiz: Gifted Children Whether it's in our child's elementary school or on the news, we've all heard the phrase "gifted and talented" being thrown around, but what does the term "gifted" really mean? All children have their own individual talents, and should be rewarded and praised for all their enthusiastic endeavors. This quiz will test your knowledge of the meaning of being gifted and some of the myths surrounding gifted and talented children. 1. More than five percent of students in the U.S. are estimated to be gifted. TRUE ( ) FALSE ( ) 2. Being considered gifted has no real definition, since all children have special individual gifts and talents. TRUE ( ) FALSE ( ) 3. It can be difficult to assess and determine whether a child is gifted academically. TRUE ( ) FALSE ( ) 4. "Gifted" and "talented" are the same thing when it comes to academics and educational opportunities. TRUE ( ) FALSE ( ) 5. Allowing gifted children to skip grades or start school early sometimes may be the best option for them academically. TRUE ( ) FALSE ( ) 6. Kids with learning disabilities like dyslexia can't be considered gifted. TRUE ( ) FALSE ( ) 7. Gifted kids don't need special programs or attention from teachers in school; because they're equipped to excel, they can manage on their own. TRUE ( ) FALSE ( ) : ANSWERS 1. TRUE. According to the National Association for Gifted Children, there are approximately 3 million gifted children in the U.S., which is equivalent to more than five percent of students in the could be considered academically talented. In many schools, gifted and talented students can be grouped together for higher-achievement classes, which will allow both types to thrive. 5. TRUE. Gifted kids can be bored or feel out of place in classes with kids their own age. While it is important for them to play and have social time with their peers, there is no reason they should be held back by being forced to learn with them. Placing gifted kids among intellectual peers will allow them to thrive, and often these kids are happier and share more in common with older students anyway. 6. FALSE. There is no rule that gifted kids can't have a learning disability as well. These kids, termed "twice exceptional," can be even harder than gifted children to recognize and understand, because often the disability can mask the gift, causing the child's performance to be average. 7. FALSE. Gifted students, like all children, need guidance from teachers who are properly trained to challenge and support them so that they can reach their full potential. Teachers need to be able to recognize and nurture gifts in these children, because it is easy for gifted kids to be overlooked and develop bad academic and social habits out of boredom and frustration. Without the proper guidance from teachers, as the years go by and gifted children are challenged more, they will find it harder and harder to meet those challenges, since they've never been pushed to excel. If you were able to answer five of the seven questions correctly, you're more informed than most on this subject. Dr. Joyce Brothers country. These numbers take into account only those students who are gifted in an academic or scholastic sense, not children who excel in creative, artistic or interpersonal realms. 2. FALSE. All children are special and unique, but the term "gifted" has a definition developed by the federal government to guide educators who have such children in their classrooms and schools. The current definition was proposed in the 1970s, and has been modified several times since. It defines gifted children as those children who show evidence of an ability for high achievement in various realms, including intellectual, creative and artistic and social endeavors, and therefore require services not normally provided by schools to fully develop their abilities. 3. TRUE. Whether a child is gifted may not be reflected in his school performance, or even on certain tests. This holds true especially for students gifted in areas that aren't focused on in the majority of schooling, like artistic talents. On the other hand, making good grades or even scoring high on an IQ test doesn't necessarily mean a child is gifted. 4. FALSE. Just because a child makes good grades does not mean he or she is gifted in that area, but instead (c) 2011 by King Features Syndicate Gotta Regatta!

He nearly got divorced, endured public scrutiny of his daughter Miley's behavior and a resulting backlash over his parenting, and saw the end of "Hannah Montana," the Disney phenomenon that changed the Cyruses lives forever. But even though Cyrus has lived out his drama in the tabloids, he believes everyone can identify with his struggles. "I've been through a lot," Cyrus said. "That being said, I think people around the world can look at my life and say, 'That guy is kind of just like us — peaks and valleys, ups and downs. That's what I've lived. Somewhere along the line, I think I just realized that the key to life for me and for everybody on this planet, it's not about how many times you get knocked down, it's about how many times you get back up. Everybody has adversities. Everybody has crossroads." That's especially true of members of the military, who have been on Cyrus' mind since the early days of his career. He salutes them on his new album, "I'm American," out Tuesday. He offers seven new songs on the Buddy Cannon-produced "I'm American" and a remake of "Some Gave All," the title track to his multi-platinum debut album that also included his breakthrough, "Achy Breaky Heart." That remake includes appearances by Jamey Johnson, Craig Morgan and Darryl Worley. "Three guys that not only are they veterans themselves, but they also just sing with their voices and the power and the realism that they put into the song. For me as the writer, to hear them sing it was just absolutely an awesome experience," Cyrus said. Cyrus, who also hosts TLC's new militarythemed show "Surprise Homecoming," has performed regularly for troops overseas, visited military hospitals, and says those who serve are never far from his thoughts. He said the idea for the album started with one of his trips to a combat zone. "It was during a performance in Afghanistan on 'Some Gave All' when some bombs went off in the background, a young soldier stood up and said, 'Keep going Mr. Cyrus. We're used to it,'" Cyrus said. "At that moment, I knew that I felt like I was going to come back and record 'Some Gave All' and start an entire album on a concept that was based solely on taking my hat off and saluting our troops."

Wednesday, June 29, 2011 The last president of the 20th Century? BY RICH LOWRY Sometime between 2008 and today, President Barack Obama lost the future. He rose to high office on a gust of hope and change, but despite the future-oriented marketing has proved himself devoted to old pieties and existing governmental structures. At this rate, he'll be remembered as the last president of the 20th century. His economic policy has been a reprise of the best economic thinking circa 1932. It's been all Keynesian stimulus, and the soggy results are all around us. With the economy still weak and unemployment still high, he's checkmated by his own stale orthodoxy. He's unable to advance any significant proposals that wouldn't simply be more of the same and politically unacceptable in this era of anxiety over the debt. In his misplaced faith in the "shovel ready" project, he must have had visions of the Hoover Dam and the interstate highway system -- those jewels of 20th-century American infrastructure, built relatively rapidly before the regulatory state had tied itself in knots -- rising up from his stimulus. Instead, the stimulus has built little or nothing anyone will remember. Obama's health-care program is radical in its sweep, but distinctly mid-20th century in its orientation. An enormous part of it simply depends on the expansion of Medicaid, the pride of 1965. In the first blush of the Great Society, Medicaid might have seemed a glorious innovation. Now, its results are so poor that some studies show that the health outcomes for people on Medicaid Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution Rich Lowry aren't any better than those without any insurance at all. As the baby boomers retire, the 20th-century entitlement state is under increasing strain. Paul Ryan proposes transforming Medicare to harness the power of the market and rein in the program's costs over time. Obama proposes a bureaucratic board to dictate its future in command-and-control fashion out of World War II. Tim Pawlenty a few weeks ago proposed a "Google test" for government services: Anything that's readily available on the Internet perhaps shouldn't be provided by government. Obama is attached to retrograde, pre-Google government. He can't give up what blogger Walter Russell Mead calls "the blue social model" -- high taxes, spending and regulation. The public-sector unions that are such an influential Obama constituency depend for their very livelihoods on this model. It is coming undone under the solvents of demographics (an aging population), fiscal realities (unsustainable levels of debt) and market changes (globalization and new technologies favoring the quick and nimble). It's not the 1950s anymore. For all the contempt it heaps on the era of Ward and June Cleaver, the left wants to preserve the government that arose out of that moment. As Michael Barone writes in The Wall Street Journal, midcentury American society had a faith in big institutions -- including big government -- that's impossible to imagine today. Yet government lumbers on. How many rounds of restructuring and downsizing has corporate America gone through over the decades? For the private sector, all is flux. For the public sector, the more things change, the more they stay the same. Obama's political strategy is based on savaging the Republicans who dare challenge this status quo. He's gone from agent of change to the best friend of government as we know it. He's gone from capturing the restlessness and discontent of the American public to relying on the sheer power of inertia to resist Republican plans to tackle the debt and update the entitlement state. He's the great obstacle to adjusting to new realities. All around Obama the cracks in the edifice are showing. The AARP is signaling openness to Social Security cuts. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, the son of liberal lion Mario Cuomo, is pursuing reformist measures unimaginable a few years ago. Yet Obama apparently still needs a weatherman to tell him which way the wind is blowing. If Bill Clinton built the bridge to the 21st century, Barack Obama is adamantly refusing to cross it, rendered immobile by his ideology and self-interest.

Arrangements by Stennes Funeral Home, East Grand Forks, Minnesota, Authors From Page A1 to Chester in 1996 to learn more about her ancestors. That led her to the Chester Cemetery where her greatgreat-great grandfather was buried. At his headstone was a Civil War marker noting that he had served in the 1st and 4th West Virginia Infantry during the war. Learning that information inspired Helmers to begin the research which led her to writing her book on Meigs County’s role in the Civil War. Today she is involved with reenactor groups and can often be seen on a Civil War battlefield portraying a lady of that time period. Currently she is working on a second historical novel about the Civil War in Georgia during the Atlanta Campaign. Badgley is a native of Meigs County and a graduate of Eastern High School . The setting for his first novel titled “Arcadia,” which he describes as a “paranormal mystery blended with historical fiction” is near his birthplace of Letart Falls during the Civil War era. The research for his first book led him to write a second novel to address the question of how Letart Falls got its name. It is titled “Where the Lillies Cry.” He describes it as “historical fiction blended with historical fact of the village in that era.” His latest book is “A Point of Controversy” and deals with war in another place. It re-ignites the age-old question of whether the Battle fought at Point Pleasant was actually the first battle of the American Revolution. Badgley is the founder of Badgley Publishing Co., an internet business based at Canal Winchester. Slavens added though it is a 45 day closure, it could, depending on the weather, be closed for less time and at this time she explained the repair project was going according to plan with drainage and paving to follow, as well as a visit from the utility company to move poles back to their original places. Still, having the detour closer and/or opening Ohio 124 to one lane of traffic could, as some locals see it, alleviate the amount of driving time farmers must endure on the way to larger markets like Columbus, Cleveland and Pittsburgh. This could also make it easier on consumers from outside the county who aren’t as familiar with the area to make their annual trips to the farms to purchase fresh produce - in short, a direct route will encourage some direct cash into Meigs County’s economy and support its crucial agribusiness. “I think it’s horrible and it hurts business,” Scott Hill, a local farmer in the area said. Hill, who is also the mayor of Racine, said he called to speak with officials at ODOT about the situation and about possibly putting in a stop light to open one lane of traffic. Hill said he was told ODOT officials discussed the plans with local county officials prior to the closure but to his knowledge, Hill said ODOT didn’t talk to farmers in the area before developing their detour. Hill estimates there are at least seven-nine farmers/farms in the area near the slip repair. When asked about opening Ohio 124 to one lane of traffic, Slavens said the safety of the work crews was an important issue/factor: “We cannot open up one lane on Ohio 124 because of equipment and because the crews have to have room to work.” Hal Kneen, extension educator with The Ohio State University Extension Office, said the typical height of the growing/selling season for local farmers is July 4 through the end of August, which means the road closure, whether 45 days or less, will most certainly affect the local farmers and travelers. “It’s going to affect everybody,” Hill said. Crime From Page A1 crimes took place, but no arrest has been made. Jewelry was reported stolen in some of the cases. “Every cut in our police force means more of these people get away with their crimes and we suffer,” Gerlach said, referring to the recent voluntary layoffs of two senior officers in May. Village council approved the layoffs in order to address a growing and alarming budget deficit projection for later this year. Officials hope a new jail to be built and opened in six months or so will help generate money to keep police protection at current levels, but reductions in force were deemed immediately necessary. All shifts are currently covered on the police schedule, but the reductions have eliminated some overlapping shifts designed to beef up protection when most needed.. Council also voted to extinguish some of the street lights in the village in order to reduce the monthly bill by around $2,000 per week, and now proposes a levy to pay for the cost of street lights, to appear on the November ballot. Gerlach said revenue from that proposed levy will be set aside just for street lights. “Some people tell me we cannot afford to vote for the tax levies; can we afford not to vote for them?” “Someone recently told me they thought turning off the lights is a scare tactic, but if they wanted to scare the people of Middleport, they would turn off all the lights. That is easier to do.” “You see the list of crimes we are having in Middleport, and it will get worse in the dark.” Gerlach said the decision has not yet been made as to which lights to turn off and which to keep burning, and said dusk to dawn lights placed in the village will help with public security. “The plan is to keep us as safe as possible until this problem passes,” Gerlach said in his newsletter to village residents.

Sharapova, the only Wimbledon champion remaining in the women’s draw after the Williams sisters were eliminated a day earlier, won eight straight games to win the first set and take control of the second. The fifth-seeded Russian has not lost a set at this year’s tournament, and she was nowhere near losing one Tuesday. “It’s been a few years since I got past the fourth round, and now I’m in the semifinals,” said Sharapova, who won the tournament in 2004 and also reached the semifinals in ‘05. “So this a great chance for me to take it a step further.” Sharapova will next face German wild-card entry Sabine Lisicki. She reached her first Grand Slam semifinal by beating 2007 finalist Marion Bartoli 6-4, 6-7 (4), 6-1 on another wet day at Wimbledon. “This is a player that’s playing with a tremendous amount of confidence right now and playing really great grass- court tennis, so it’ll be a really tough match but I certainly look forward to it,” Sharapova said. Cibulkova held serve in the first game against Sharapova, but couldn’t hold another. The only hiccup in the match for Sharapova came in the third game of the second set when Cibulkova broke. Sharapova won her first Grand Slam title at the All England Club when she was only 17. She added the U.S. Open title in 2006 and the Australian Open title in 2008, but has not won another since — mainly due to shoulder problems. “Well, to be in the semis of Wimbledon is a bonus,” said Sharapova, who finished with 23 winners and five aces. “To be able to come back and play tennis after a big injury — I was just quite happy to be back on the court. So to achieve this is wonderful. But the tournament isn’t over.” But with the Williams sisters, who have combined to win nine of the last 11 Wimbledon titles, both losing in the fourth round, Sharapova may be the one with the experience needed to win. The rain briefly delayed the start of play Tuesday as the roof was closed, while the opening match on Court 1 started after a 2?-hour delay. Once it did, Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic reached the Wimbledon semifinals for the second year in a row, beating Tsvetana Pironkova of Bulgaria 63, 6-7 (5), 6-2. “At the beginning I was better and I played so good like matches before,” said Kvitova, who had 54 winners to only 10 for Pironkova. “But then I get little nervous, and in my mind was something I don’t know what was it. I was mentally down.” Pironkova, who eliminated Venus Williams from the tournament for the second straight, lost in the semifinals last year. Kvitova will next face Victoria Azarenka, the highest-ranked player remaining in the women’s tournament. The fourth-seeded Azarenka defeated Tamira Paszek 6-3, 6-1 in a match that started on Court 1 but was moved to Centre Court because of rain after just one game. In the second game of the second set, Azarenka pulled off a forehand winner on break point that didn’t even have to clear the net. Instead, the Belarussian ran down a shot to her right and smacked it outside the post and into the court on the other side. With heavy rain causing a racket as it pelted down on the retractable white cover over the Corinne Dubreuil/Abaca Press/MCT Russia's Maria Sharapova defeated Slovakia's Dominika Cibulkova, 6-4, 6-7, 6-1, during their quarterfinals match during the Wimbledon Championships in Wimbledon, England on Tuesday. court, Lisicki used drop shots to perfection in the first two sets, becoming only the second wild-card entry to reach the women’s semifinals at the All England Club. “I cannot explain how I feel at the moment,” said Lisicki, the first German Grand Slam semifinalist since Steffi Graf in 1999. “It was just such a tough road back and it’s so wonderful to be standing on Centre Court in Wimbledon which I love so much. I’m just so happy.” Lisicki served for the match at 5-4 in the second and held three match points, but Bartoli saved them all. On the second, Lisicki went to her go-to drop shot but put it into the net. Bartoli eventually broke back — when Lisicki double-faulted for the first time — and then won the tiebreaker. In the third set, Lisicki broke to take a 3-0 lead, and then again to make it 5-1. She won when the tiring Bartoli put a forehand into the net. Lisicki, who finished the match with 52 winners to Bartoli’s 12, reached the quarterfinals at the All England Club two years ago but lost to Dinara Safina. Lisicki survived a scare early in the match, but it had nothing to do with tennis or even her opponent. After serving at 3015 in the second game of the match, Lisicki shuddered when a loud blast of thunder rang out overhead. She then lost the next two points and eventually the game, but recovered and broke for the second time in three games to take a 2-1 lead. Lisicki is now 3-1 against Bartoli. Her only loss came in the first round at Wimbledon in 2008, a year after Bartoli reached the final at the All England Club but lost to Venus Williams.

Korea Source: Goodell, Smith DRESDEN, Germany (AP) — Once, twice, three times and then a fourth, Lauren Cheney launched a shot with her foot only to watch it go right into the hands of the North Korean goalkeeper. Finally, she used her head. And just like that, the Americans looked more like a team that could contend for a third Women’s World Cup title than the one that took a self-described “bumpy” road to Germany. “I wasn’t frustrated,” said Cheney, whose goal in the 54th minute sparked a 2-0 win over North Korea on Tuesday. “I knew if I kept going, I’d get one. I’m pretty happy I did.” So did her teammates. After hearing about their inconsistency and shortcomings for months, the win in their tournament opener gave the Americans a needed dose of confidence. When the final whistle sounded, the U.S. reserves ran onto the field to celebrate while the North Koreans stood just beyond midfield, watching. It was the fourth straight time the teams had met in group play at the World Cup, and the Americans have won all games but one. North Korean coach Kim Kwang Min blamed his team’s failings in the second half on a June 8 lightning strike during training in Pyongyang that sent “more than five” players to the hospital. Goalkeeper Hong Myong Hui, four defenders and some of the midfielders were the players most affected, Kim said. “The physicians actually said the players were not capable of playing in the tournament,” Kim said through an interpreter. “They’re not physically ready for this match, but they had a strong will.” The Americans now face Colombia, which lost 1-0 to Sweden, on Saturday in Sinsheim. The young North Koreans — only two had played in a World Cup before — looked pretty good in the first half. The Americans started the game strong, controlling play with crisp passing and good speed. But the North Koreans gained confidence as time went on, shutting down the U.S. attack in the midfield and repeatedly pushing forward in the closing minutes before halftime. Kim Su Gyong took a shot from close range in the 34th minute, but U.S. goalkeeper Hope Solo punched it away. Four minutes later, Song Jung Sun slid a shot right in front of the goal that Solo couldn’t reach. No other Americans were there to clear it away — neither were the North Koreans kind of like the monkey off your back,” Wambach said. The Americans practically camped themselves on North Korea’s side of the field, with Wambach hitting the crossbar in the 65th and Amy Rodriguez putting a shot wide in the 73rd before Rachel Buehler scored the insurance goal in the 76th minute. A shot off the crossbar ricocheted back into the scrum and Carli Lloyd collected the ball and headed it to Buehler, who unleashed a monster strike with her right foot. Hong dove and stretched out her hand, but she never got close and the ball rolled into the net. It was the second goal of the defender’s career. “Hopefully, we’ll be able to build confidence off this win,” Buehler said. The Americans have heard plenty of criticism about their uncharacteristic inconsistency these last few months. After going more than two years without a loss, the U.S. dropped three games in five months. The Americans were stunned in the semifinals of regional World Cup qualifying by Mexico, a team that had been 0-24-1 against its northern neighbor. The U.S. had to win a home-and-home playoff with Italy just to get to Germany. — and Ali Krieger finally booted the ball to safety. “The opening to any game, emotions are going to be flying, players are going to be flying, it’s going to be ugly sometimes,” Solo said. “It was a little sloppy at the beginning, but we weathered the storm.” U.S. coach Pia Sundhage told her players at halftime to take the ball outside and make more use of the flanks. The improvement was clear immediately. Cheney, making her first start since March, had two shots caught by Hong in the first five minutes of the half. In the 51st minute, Abby Wambach took a sliding shot from the edge of the 6-yard box, only to watch the ball sail over the net. Finally, in the 54th, Wambach dribbled quickly up the left flank and took a step as if to move inside, spinning a North Korean defender around. Wambach dribbled a few more steps before chipping in a perfect cross that Cheney nodded past Hong. “I’m actually not a very good header,” Cheney said. “I just knew I wanted to redirect it back to the same place it came from.” It was Cheney’s 14th goal in her 40th appearance for the United States. “When Lauren scored that goal, it’s obviously Friends remember NC State hero Charles RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Lorenzo Charles provided the NCAA tournament with one of its enduring moments. The video of his basket in the 1983 championship game is replayed every March. The young North Carolina State forward leaps into the air to grab an errant heave, turns to the rim and lays it in, giving the Wolfpack a twopoint victory over Houston and sending the late Jim Valvano running onto the court in wild celebration. Charles was remembered for that basket Tuesday, along with his imposing presence on the court and gentle demeanor away from it. He was killed Monday when the Elite Coach charter bus he was driving crashed along Interstate 40 in Raleigh. No passengers were aboard. “He was just a fun-loving guy,” former teammate Ernie Myers told The Associated Press by phone. “He was a big, muscular guy — ‘Hey, this guy’s really intimidating’ — but he’s a quintessential giant. Goodhearted, loved to laugh. I can hear him laughing right now.” N.C. State said Tuesday its men’s basketball players will honor Charles this season by wearing patches on their uniforms, and the school said its fundraising Wolfpack Club is considering endowing a scholarship in his name for a student-athlete. Athletic director Debbie Yow called Charles “a Wolfpack hero.” “The Wolfpack family mourns today as we remember his athletic accomplishments, his excellent character and his winning dunk in the 1983 national championship game,” she said. After Charles’ playing career ended in the late 1990s, he began driving buses and limos. He worked for Elite Coach, a limousine and bus company based in nearby Apex, and its clients included Duke’s lacrosse team and the North Carolina softball team. Duke basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski, who said Charles drove his team to the airport a few times, called his death “a tragedy, a loss.” “To me, he was a funloving, good guy,” Krzyzewski said. “Just to hear or read the remarks of his teammates, his family at N.C. State, he seemed a very loved person, and it saddens me and our hearts go out to his family and the N.C. State family.” Charles enjoyed a successful career. He scored 1,535 total points — 15th on the N.C. State scoring list — and his .575 shooting percentage in 1985 remains a school record for seniors. He played one season in the NBA, averaging 3.4 points in 36 games with the Atlanta Hawks in 1985-86, then played internationally and in the Continental Basketball Association until 1999. But he’ll always be remembered for that putback nearly three decades ago.

U n t i l NOTEBOOK then, I d o n ’ t think we’re missing much.” The lockout began on March 12, and players have not been allowed to train at team facilities or contact their coaches, with the exception of a few days in April when the lockout was briefly lifted. Players on several teams have practiced on their own, trying to keep in football shape so they’ll be prepared to get back to business on the field whenever the labor impasse ends. The key issue in the dispute is how to divide revenues after the league took in about $9.3 billion last year. Previous “secret meetings” have taken place in suburban Chicago, New York, the Maryland shore and last week in Hull, Mass., south of Boston. The federal courts in Minneapolis are familiar ground for both sides, since the current collective bargaining system was put together under court oversight here and it’s where an antitrust lawsuit filed by players against the league is still pending. Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh said he believes progress is being made. “The main thing is that they’re talking and being able to interact with each other,” he said. “There was a point in time where there was nothing being said and we were just sitting back. Now, there’s some interaction and it looks like there’s some positive light at the end of the tunnel. We’re looking forward to getting it done. I’m ready to get back on the field.” Jeff Warner GOOD FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT August 15-20 MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith opened four days of labor talks in Minnesota on Tuesday, getting together without players or owners in the room. Three people familiar with the situation told The Associated Press that the two power brokers and staff members resumed negotiations aimed at ending a lockout now in its fourth month. The people spoke on condition of anonymity because no labor developments are being made public. People familiar with the situation said the executive committee of the players’ association planned a conference call later Tuesday to discuss the negotiations. NFL.com first reported that Goodell and Smith were meeting. Smith planned to go to Florida by Wednesday morning to attend a symposium for rookies in Bradenton. The people told the AP that the two sides were planning to meet through Friday. The traditional start of training camp is just three weeks away and Chicago and St. Louis are scheduled to play the annual Hall of Fame game on Aug. 7. Yet Detroit Lions defensive end Lawrence Jackson said he believes there still isn’t enough urgency to reach a deal on a new collective bargaining agreement — not yet. “From a business perspective, nobody is losing anything right now,” Jackson said at a youth sports camp in Walled Lake, Mich. “The owners haven’t had to pay offseason bonuses — so they’re making interest on the money they’re not spending — and most of the players aren’t used to getting paid 133 Court Street, Pomeroy 740-992-2054 148th Meigs County Fair Good Food took Charles’ life at age 47. Video shows the windshield broken out with tree limbs sticking through the frame. The rear wheels of the bus were on an embankment, leaving the right front tire elevated from the road. In a 911 call, a frantic woman said a coach bus came off the exit ramp, down a hill and onto Interstate 40, before eventually coming to rest on the embankment. “It must have been exiting or coming onto 40 westbound and instead of taking the ramp down, it went through the trees and over the hill,” she said. “It’s tilted pretty far sideways.” She later noted that someone got on the bus and appeared to be giving CPR. In radio traffic about the wreck, authorities note the driver was unconscious and bleeding from his head. Myers said he and his family were driving on vacation Sunday when he last spoke to Charles. “He said, ‘Ernie, I’ll call you back.’ His wife called him on the other line, and he never called me back,” Myers said. “It’s just kind of surreal.” tied with the Phi Slamma Jamma team of Clyde Drexler and Hakeem Olajuwon in the championship game in Albuquerque, N.M. Time was ticking away when Dereck Whittenburg hoisted a heave from well beyond the key. Charles pulled the ball out of the air and dropped it in at the buzzer, giving the Wolfpack an improbable 54-52 victory and their last national championship. “I lost a very good friend in Lorenzo,” former N.C. State teammate Spud Webb said. “He always had a big smile and a big laugh that I will always remember. He was a gentle giant.” Dominique Wilkins, his former pro teammate and now the Hawks’ vice president of basketball operations, said Charles “left an indelible impact in sports lore that will never be forgotten.” “He will be forever remembered for his accomplishments,” Wilkins said. “The Atlanta Hawks family would like to extend heartfelt condolences to the Charles family.” Details began to emerge Tuesday about the one-vehicle crash that meeting in Minnesota 113 West 2nd.

SPORTS Page A10 Wednesday, June 29, 2011 Judge approves Dodgers bankruptcy financing WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) — A Delaware judge on Tuesday authorized the Los Angeles Dodgers to enter into a $150 million bankruptcy financing arrangement after the club satisfied certain concerns raised by Major League Baseball, which had filed an objection offering its own financing proposal and blasting owner Frank McCourt’s stewardship of the team. The proposed financing agreement with hedge fund Highbridge Capital, which was approved on an interim basis pending a July 20 hearing, allows the Dodgers to draw an initial $60 million to maintain operations. B a s e b a l l Commissioner Bud Selig’s office had objected to the financing proposal in court papers Tuesday, accusing McCourt of siphoning off more than $100 million in club revenue and driving the Dodgers into a liquidity crisis. Selig’s attorneys argued that his office could provide a loan on better terms, and that McCourt’s financing proposal should be rejected because it compels the team to sell valu- able future broadcast rights to meet current expenses and to provide money for the personal use of McCourt, whom the league accused of using team proceeds to lead a “lavish lifestyle” with his ex-wife. But after attorneys huddled behind closed doors for more than an hour Tuesday afternoon, the league agreed to let the Dodgers proceed with their proposed financing arrangement, with two modifications. One of the modifications reduces the exit fee that would be due to Highbridge from $4.5 million to $250,000. The other removes certain milestones in the financing agreement regarding the sale of the team’s broadcast rights. Those milestones included weekly updates on the team’s effort to license its broadcast rights, and a July 29 deadline to agree on a sale process calling for bankruptcy court approval of a sale within six months of Monday’s bankruptcy filing, and a closing within 45 days of the court order. The Dodgers have blamed their bankruptcy filing on Selig’s refusal to approve a multibillion- dollar TV deal that McCourt was counting on to keep the cashstarved franchise afloat. Selig said in court papers that the deal was not in the best interests of the team or the league. While agreeing to the interim financing, both sides reserved their rights to argue all issues surrounding the bankruptcy filing, including the possibility that the league might seek to have the case dismissed, and whether former Texas Rangers President Thomas Schieffer should remain as monitor of the Dodgers. Schieffer was appointed to monitor the team on Selig’s behalf after the commissioner took the extraordinary step in April of assuming control of the troubled franchise, saying he was concerned about the team’s finances and how the Dodgers are being run. “I recognize that there is a lot ahead of us,” Judge Kevin Gross said before adjourning Tuesday’s hearing. In addition to issuing the interim financing order, Gross granted several routine motions that will allow the team to continue operations, authorized the Dodgers to continue paying vendors, utility providers and employees, and to keep up with tax and insurance obligations. The granting of such motions is routine in first-day hearings in bankruptcy court, but Gross noted that the baseball club’s case is unique in some aspects. “I haven’t seen a wage motion quite like this one,” the judge said, referring to the team’s 44-page motion to continue paying hundreds of full-time and part-time employees, including about 250 players, most of whom are in the minor league ranks. Gross also granted the team’s request to honor payments it is required to make under collective bargaining agreements. “The seamless, uninterrupted operation of the team is vital,” said Richard Seltzer, an attor- Fickell, OSU moving on BBYFL SIGNUPS The Big Bend Youth Football League will hold its annual signups every Saturday in July from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. for all youth interested in participating in football or cheerleading.

Thomas Lauria, an attorney representing Selig’s office, disagreed with Bennett that the league and the team were adversaries, saying the league views the Dodgers as one of its “cherished crown jewels” and an “essential component.” Lauria did suggest, however, that the league was at loggerheads with McCourt, whom he blamed for “today’s sorry mess.” In addition to the dispute with the league over financing, the Dodgers are facing a challenge from McCourt’s ex-wife, Jamie, who is battling in a California divorce court for half of his ownership assets. “Jamie McCourt is a presumptive owner of 50 percent of assets,” said Laura Davis Jones, an attorney representing her. Jones urged the judge to do only what is minimally necessary to preserve the assets of the team. “Nothing should be done today that locks the future of this case into concrete,” she said. Karl Kuntz/Columbus Dispatch/MCT Jim Tressel of Ohio State looks at the scoreboard during the first half of an NCAA football game against the Iowa Hawkeyes at Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City, Iowa, Saturday, November 20, 2010. Tattoo parlor-owner tied to OSU scandal guilty COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Tattoo parlorowner Edward Rife had a lucrative side business selling hundreds of pounds of marijuana in Columbus, a second job that federal prosecutors say allowed him to pay $21,500 for a luxury SUV. But Rife’s guilty plea to drug trafficking and money laundering charges Tuesday might have gone unnoticed had federal investigators not stumbled on another of Rife’s sidelines: buying Ohio State memorabilia from football players or giving them discounts on tattoos for the items. That discovery triggered an NCAA investigation into the school, led to coach Jim Tressel’s forced resignation, the departure of star quarterback Terrelle Pryor and the suspension of four players for the first five games of the upcoming season and one game for a fifth player. The university is still wrestling with the scandal’s fallout, which could include a variety of NCAA penalties. “Guilty, your honor,” Rife told U.S. District Court Judge Gregory Frost when asked how he wanted to plead to one count of money laundering and one count of conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute more than 200 pounds of marijuana. Afterward, attorney Stephen Palmer tried to distance his client from the scandal. “He was an unfortunate cog in the wheel,” Palmer said after the hearing. “He had no intention of harming anyone in the program.” Rife, 31, could face a prison sentence of 20 years for money laundering and up to 40 years for drug trafficking but would likely receive much less under federal sentencing rules. Frost did not set a sentencing date and prosecutors say Rife’s cooperation in an ongoing drug-trafficking investigation could determine the length of sentence. Rife, owner of Fine Line Ink Tattoos and Body Piercings on the west side of Columbus, was allowed to remain free pending his sentencing. Assistant U.S. Attorney Kevin Kelley said the government is not assisting with either the NCAA or Ohio State investigations. He also said there was no evi- dence Ohio State players were involved in the marijuana operation. In December, Pryor and four other Ohio State players were found to have received cash and discounted tattoos from Rife in exchange for signed Buckeye memorabilia and championship rings. All were permitted by the NCAA to play in the Buckeyes’ 31-26 victory over Arkansas in the Sugar Bowl, with their five-game suspensions to begin with the first game of the 2011 season. Another player, Jordan Whiting, was suspended for one game. After the team returned from New Orleans, investigators found that Tressel had learned in April 2010 about the players’ involvement with Rife. Rife had met with a local attorney and former Ohio State walk-on player, Christopher Cicero, that month to discuss his case but never hired Cicero. Cicero sent Tressel emails detailing the improper benefits, and the two ended up trading a dozen emails on the subject. Tressel had signed an NCAA compliance form in September saying he had no knowledge of any wrongdoing by athletes. His contract, in addition to NCAA rules, specified that he had to tell his superiors or compliance department about any potential NCAA rules violations. Tressel, who won a national championship and seven Big Ten titles at Ohio State, resigned May 30. Pryor also has announced he’s leaving Ohio State. Rife must also forfeit $50,000 in drug proceeds, but if he does that successfully he’ll keep the memorabilia found in his suburban Columbus home. Those include Big Ten championship rings, gold pants pendants, autographed items and parts of football uniforms. “Investigators could not determine whether the seized Ohio State sports memorabilia had been specifically purchased by Rife with narcotics proceeds,” Robert Bogner, a special agent in the Internal Revenue Service’s criminal investigations unit, testified in court Tuesday. Bogner said investigators learned of Rife’s drug dealing while investigating a major marijuana and cocaine operation in central Ohio. COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio State football coach Luke Fickell has stressed, time and again, since the resignation of Jim Tressel, that the Buckeyes have to move forward. Four weeks after Tressel left the program, it seems Fickell’s players have done just that. “Losing Coach Tress is absolutely huge for us, but you have to move on,” junior defensive lineman John Simon said. “We’ve been doing that pretty well so far, and Coach Fick is leading the way and doing an awesome job.” Simon, along with some teammates, addressed the media Tuesday on campus, as the program continues to pick up the pieces with camp on the horizon. Fickell, a former Ohio State player and defensive assistant the past 10 years, has the attention of his players early on, even the ones who worked on the opposite side of the ball from him last season. “I love Coach Fick,” senior center Mike Brewster said. “He definitely deserves to be here. He’s the man. He’ll prove himself this year. He’s got the opportunity now. He’s not going to lose it. I have so much confidence in him. We’ll all be playing for Coach Fickell. “I’m definitely playing for Coach Fick, but I’ve put Coach Tress in the back of my mind for everything he did for me. But from a coaching standpoint, Coach Fick is my coach.” For how long, though, remains to be seen. Despite the fact that Fickell said Tuesday on “The Dan Patrick Show,” that the interim tag was recently removed by athletic director Gene Smith, the university said that does not mean he will be the permanent coach. In fact, a university statement made sure of it on Tuesday: “Luke is our head coach this year. At some point either during or after the season a decision will be made on who will be our coach going forward.” The Buckeyes open the season on Sept. 3 at home vs. Akron. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
