Field of Hope CEO Kevin Dennis welcomed those gathered and said the Faith House was just another step in Field of Hope’s mission to “fight back against the darkness” of addiction. “It’s time to turn the tide,” said Dennis. “Someone asked me this morning, how do you work with the conflict of being a faithbased organization and being supportive of government? And my answer was, there hasn’t been a conflict yet because we’ve got a strong network of folks all the way to the top that know the change from the inside out is what heals lives and changes us forever. There are a bunch of girls standing here (nodding) their head. What a blessing.” Dennis reflected on Field of Hope’s beginnings when he referenced 25 volunteers, tied to Vinton Baptist Church across the street from the old North Gallia High School on Ohio 160, who then cleared asbestos from the old school structure to help make way for its future as a community outreach and addiction recovery center which would turn into the Field of Hope Campus. “We want ladies who come here to never be sorry they knocked,” said Dennis. “Right here, the Hope House,” said Field of Hope Execu- INDEX Obituary: 2 Opinion: 4 News: 5 Sports: 6 TV: 7 Comics: 8 Classifieds: 9 Weather: 10 tive Director Amber Richards, “is a residential (facility program) for women. It holds 16. Right now, we can hold 20 in sober living that’s off-campus. This (the Faith House) is going to be another sober living house…in between our Hope House and (current sober living programs), it’s going to be a little bit higher level care but down from our residential to sober living… This is 3.5 level care (Hope House) and this one will be 2.5 and 2.1 (the Faith House)…It’s a step in-between to help girls get back out there and integrate in a good way instead of sending them out too soon if they need a bit longer.” Richards said she was proud of the campus residents and the majority of them either had a job, were working on getting a job or were in school. “Faith-based treatment has the highest success rate of any one of them,” claimed Dennis. “The state has defined success… if you haven’t experienced recidivism, in other words you’ve not gone back into the court system once you’ve gone through the program, that’s considered a success. That’s a good hard number we can give… We’ve only been in service for two years and I’m not trying to make a wild claim here, but the fact of the matter is, in the two years the ladies who have completed our program, the success rate is over 90 percent.” Guests from local, state and federal government wished the campus well in its continued fight against addiction. Speakers and attendees were invited to partake in a hog roast and bean dinner following the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Kids show creativity at flower show By Lorna Hart Special to the Sentinel ROCKSPRINGS — Junior participates in the Meigs County Fair Flower Show welcomed the opportunity to demonstrate their creativity and horticultural abilities during the Fair’s first show. With their own interpretations of Fair themes, the Juniors were tasked to design two floral pieces, one representing the Kiddie Tractor Pull and another 4-H. The entries were so well done that many observers and the Flower Show judge commented that it was difficult to tell where the Adult Show ended and the Junior Show began. Juniors also participated in the Junior Horticultural portion of the show with specimens from their gardens and roadside materials they had collected. All were tagged and named before entry into the competition. Several very unique Fairy and Dish gardens were also assembled by the participants and remained on display throughout the week.

ATHENS — The Appalachian Ohio Opioid Workforce Expansion project award was made to Dr. Deborah Henderson, director of Ohio University’s School of Nursing (SON), for $1.35 million. The grant was awarded through the United States Department of Health and Human Services’ Health Resources and Services Administration. Co-investigators on the grant are Drs. Char Miller and Sherleena Buchman of the School of Nursing in the College of Health Sciences and Professions (CHSP); Kerri Shaw, Drs. Mingun Lee and Terry Cluse-Tolar in CHSP’s Department of Social Work; Orman Hall, CHSP executive in residence; and Drs. Yegan Pillay, Mona Robinson, Adrienne Erby and Bilal Urkmez in the Department of Counseling and Higher Education in the Gladys W. and David H. Patton College of Education. Designed to increase the number of professionals with interprofessional skills, CHSP will work with the College of Education to expand the number of behavioral health professionals educated in interprofessional teams through classes and clinical experiences. “The grant team is excited to collaborate with our graduate students and partnering community behavioral health organizations to increase the number of behavioral health providers for the region,” Henderson said. The grant will apply in the counties of Athens, Hocking, Jackson, Meigs, Perry, Ross, Vinton and Washington. These counties were chosen in part because of their higher-than-average drug overdose rates. Meigs County has the third highest overdose death rate in the state while Hocking, Perry and Jackson also have significantly higher rates than the national average, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “These counties need assistance, and The Patton College’s George E.

Daily Sentinel Celebrating the future APG plant notes second lease on life By Beth Sergent bsergent@aimmediamidwest.com APPLE GROVE, W.Va. — The sun was definitely shining in Apple Grove, W.Va. over the weekend at the AGP Polytech plant. A far cry from two years prior when the outlook was grim, to say the least. On Saturday, APG Polytech (formerly M&G Polymers) celebrated its first anniversary under the ownership of parent company Far Eastern Group (the latter of which is also celebrating its 70th anniversary) and the 60th anniversary of the facility in Apple Grove. Over the years and under different ownership, the plant has provided employment for individuals from not only Mason County but Gallia County and beyond. The celebration included a chance for current employees, retirees and their families, as well as supporters, to meet with representatives of the Far Eastern Group, including COO Donald Fan who was visiting from Taiwan. Plant Manufacturing Site Manager Richard G. Maack spoke prior to introducing Fan. “We’re here to commemorate our past but also celebrate our future,” Maack said. “This plant went through a lot of things the last 18 months and its certainly been tough but due to the hard work, the faith, the loyalty to the people, we overcame those obstacles and we’re here to celebrate that success.” Maack continued, “… everybody pitched in together, the employees, the companies we worked with, I see a lot of friends here. I see a lot of people that worked hard with us and with Far Eastern to get this place sold, get the employees rehired…it’s a true example of what can be accomplished if all of us just work together.” Maack stated APG Polytech was now part of a company that has 65,000 employees and then introduced Fan. Fan remarked on being impressed with his first visit to the plant and described the dedication of Maack and his team members who volunteered to keep the plant safe during the bankruptcy period. According to the West Virginia Development Office, these volunteers reportedly safely shut down the plant, cooled the reactors, properly stored chemicals, maintained equipment and kept the facility environmentally compliant. This was done with no promise of pay and no guarantee that the plant would ever be sold or reopened. These employees did this work only with faith and a belief that the facility could be sold to a new company and that all employees would be able to return to work. “This was very impressive to me,” Fan said. “So we trust Richard’s team…so we came here.” Fan continued, “Today we celebrate the reverse for APG.” Fan also noted celebrating the 60th anniversary for the plant and how in Chinese culture, Photos by Beth Sergent | OVP On Saturday, APG Polytech (formerly M&G Polymers) celebrated its first anniversary under the ownership of parent company Far Eastern Group (the latter of which is also celebrating its 70th anniversary) and the 60th anniversary of the facility in Apple Grove. Mason County Commissioner Tracy Doolittle and a few friends prepare to ride the Ferris Wheel brought in for the APG Polytech celebration event. 60 years is especially significant. In order to remain competitive in the market, Fan stated Far Eastern Group would be investing even more millions of dollars within three years, maintaining as well as improving equipment, exploring additional product opportunities and hiring more workers. These announcements were met with applause at the celebration. Maack then commented on the 70th anniversary of Far Eastern Group. “(70 years ago) That is about the time many people fled mainland China to escape the communist regime and our founder…is one of those people who left China, went to the island of Formosa which is now Taiwan and he started his business there, to be started in a democratic nation,” Maack said. “We are very happy to be part of this company, this culture, that founding spirit… it’s something we in the United States ourselves went through a couple hundred years ago.” Seen as an economic development success story, the sun wasn’t always shining on the plant site. The M&G Chemicals group purchased it in 2000 and declared bankruptcy in October 2017. On Oct. 24, 2017, the plant closed and all of the approximately 130 employees were laid off. On March 1, 2018, the Taiwan-based Far Eastern New Century Corporation (FENC) closed the purchase of the former M&G plant. The workers and company restored the manufacturing plant to full operation in Far Eastern Group COO Donald Fan, at right, preparing to speak to visitors at Saturday’s celebration. Pictured at left, Plant Manufacturing Site Manager Richard G. Maack introducing Fan. July 2018, less than four months later. The plant, now called APG Polytech, returned to producing polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Properties such as strength, flexibility, stability and recyclability make the plastic resin a popular product for bottles and food packaging. FENC is a leader in PET recycling in Asia. The Apple Grove facility marks the first plastic production site in the United States for FENC. Maack told the West Virginia Development Office that there was an employee return rate of 97 percent when reopening the plant. Saturday’s celebration at APG included free food, gift bags, hats and t-shirts, inflatables, a mechanical bull, games, tours of the plant and what is an uncommon sight in Apple Grove - a Ferris Wheel. In addition, the popular Eagles’ tribute band, 7 Bridges, was brought in to entertain those gathered with Valley Fire Department and Mason County EMS personnel also on hand. Also giving celebratory remarks at the event were Mike Hall, chief of staff to Gov. Jim Justice, State Senator Eric J. Tarr and a representative from Congresswoman Carol Miller’s office on behalf of Miller. The plant has remained a fixture in the area with Goodyear Tire & Rubber company beginning operations there in 1959. Shell Chemical Co. bought the plant in December 1992.

The Board also received updates on the impact of the state biennial budget, the University’s efforts to prevent sexual misconduct, and capital projects during Monday’s meetings. One OHIO Update Executive Vice President and Provost Chaden Djalali, Interim Executive Dean for Regional Higher Education Nicole Pennington and Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer Brad Cohen provided an update on the implementation of this initiative that will integrate the University’s multi-campus operation. They shared details of how the integration process is actively underway and how multiple work streams involving faculty, staff and leadership from across the institution have defined milestones and measurable outcomes. Since the Board endorsed the One OHIO concept at the March 2019 meeting, the University has continued planning efforts, begun transitioning into implementation, taken necessary steps to strengthen the connections between all of Ohio University’s functions and campuses, and begun breaking down internal barriers to the innovation necessary to make supporting critical changes. State Biennial Budget Impact Senior Vice President Finance and Administration Deb Shaffer reviewed the state biennial budget and its impact on OU. The final state operating budget authorized a 2 percent increase in the FY20 State Share of Instruction (SSI), followed by a 1 percent increase in FY21.The Board-approved budget for FY20 already included an assumption that the state would increase SSI by 1 percent. The final state budget is projected to provide the University with approximately $1.7M in unbudgeted revenues. Shaffer also provided a multiyear outlook for SSI, including how declining enrollments are projected to impact Ohio University’s share of SSI in future years. Trustees heard an update on state line item appropriations impacting Ohio University. The FY20-21 biennial operating budget includes significant state investment in programs unique to OU, including the Voinovich School of Leadership and Public Affairs’ Appalachian New Economy Partnership, Academy for Excellence in Public Service, and Rural University Program; the Heritage College of Medicine’s AHEC Program support, Family Practice, Geriatric Medicine, Primary Care Residencies and OHIO clinical training; and Library depositories. In total, the final FY20 state line item appropriations provide an additional $3.3 million for specific investment in the associated programs. The Board approved the addition of $1.2 million to the project cost of the renovation and ADA improvements project at 29 Park Place and the Carriage House on the property. The increase would bring the overall cost to $3.5 million. The addition is necessary due to several factors: An increase in material costs due to current market conditions, an increase in the overall cost due to the strength of the economy, and unforeseen costs due to utility and code requirements to convert the building from residential occupancy to business use. An increase in the OHIO Honors Program cohort from 300 to 425, with a projected continued increase, which requires additional staff and need for accessible space. The schedule is also a factor, as the Park Place project is a critical first domino for a series of interrelated projects connected to the Russ College of Engineering and TechnolSexual Misconduct Prevention and ogy renovation of the West Union Street Office Center.

The construction is set to begin in late FY20 and wrap in FY21. Designation of Cambridge Center as Surplus Property The Board approved a resolution to designate the Cambridge Center, a University-owned classroom space in Cambridge, Ohio, that has struggled to remain occupied, to be designated as surplus and placed for sale. The property was purchased in 2013 in Cambridge to be used as classroom space. It is located on 0.68 acres of land and consists of a 7,500-squarefoot building and a 539-squarefoot brick garage. The space is vacant and has been deemed not viable from a financial perspective.

The hearing was convened by U.S. District Judge Richard Berman, who presided over the case after federal prosecutors had Epstein arrested last month. The question before the judge was whether to throw out the indictment because of the defendant’s death, a usually pro forma step undertaken without a hearing. But the judge offered Epstein’s accusers an extraordinary opportunity to speak in court. In addition to the women who spoke, statements from over a dozen others were read in court by their lawyers. Repeatedly, the women described themselves as survivors and said they hoped coming forward ommended that the property be sold. If approved by the Board, OHIO officials will work with the Ohio Department of Administrative Services to sell the property. In other business, the Board:Approved a resolution to change the easement renewal process, delegating authority to execute existing easement renewals to the Senior Vice President for Finance and Administration. The change only applies to easement renewals, which previously have required Board of Trustees approval. There are more than 40 such easements pending renewal in Fiscal year 2020. The Board will continue to approve all new, non-capital project related easements. Gave retroactive approval for three easements related to ongoing capital projects that were inadvertently left out of resolutions passed in January, March and June of 2019. Approved the annual Affordability and Efficiency Report, which will be presented to the Ohio Department of Higher Education. The report details cost savings and revenuegenerating initiatives, as well as academic policy and process improvements. Received an update on OHIO’s accreditation process. The University is in the process of switching to the Open Pathway accreditation model after it was notified by the Higher Learning Commission that the Academic Quality Improvement Program Pathway was being phased out. The update included feedback the University received from the Higher Learning Commission, such as how OHIO’s System Portfolio was accepted with no interim monitoring or institutional response required and how OHIO received a rating of “Strong, clear and well presented” on 18 of 21 core Accreditation requirements. Received an update on the timeline to issue the next tranche of tax-exempt debt in support of the board-approved capital improvement plan, as well as an update on the transition to Fund Evaluation Group as the investment advisor to Ohio University and the Ohio University Foundation.

They vented their fury over Epstein’s alleged crimes and his suicide in his jail cell Aug. 10 while awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges involving dozens of teenage girls. “He is a coward,” said Courtney Wild, who has said she was sexually abused by Epstein in Florida at 14. “Justice has never been served in this case.” “The fact I will never have a chance to face my predator in court eats away at me,” Araoz said. “They let this man kill himself and kill the chance for justice for so many others.” Virginia Roberts Giuffre, who has said she was a 15-year-old working at President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club when she was recruited to perform sex acts on Epstein, told the court: “My hopes were quickly dashed and my dreams were stolen.” Sarah Ransome, who said Epstein pressured her into sex when she was in her early 20s, encouraged federal prosecutors in their effort to go after those who helped the financier in his pursuit of victims, saying, “Finish what you started. ... We are survivors, and the pursuit of justice should not abate.” Among those under scrutiny: Epstein’s girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell, who has been accused of recruiting young women for his sexual pleasure and taking part in the abuse. She has denied any wrongdoing. In opening the session, the judge called the 66-year-old Epstein’s suicide a “rather stunning turn of events.” He defended his decision to let the women speak, saying, “Public hearings ... promote transparency and provide the court with insights and information that the court might otherwise not be aware of.” During the 2½-hour proceeding, the women sometimes clutched one another to lend support. Most remained composed, but several cried as they described falling into Epstein’s web. His suicide left some of them angry, others sad. One said she was relieved that he was gone and could abuse no others. DETROIT (AP) — The home of Detroit’s annual auto show and other major events has officially changed its name to the TCF Center and moved on from its original name, which honored a former mayor known for racist and segregationist policies, officials announced Tuesday. Officials said the Cobo Center name is no more, making good on the February announcement of a $33 million naming rights deal with Chemical Bank, which is now a division of TCF Bank. The name change will save taxpayers millions of dollars, move the riverfront facility toward being financially self-sustaining by 2024 and provide money for major capital projects, they said. It had been owned and operated by the city until 2009, when the Detroit Regional Convention Facility Authority was created. The move also purges a negative aspect of Detroit’s history: Albert Cobo, who served as mayor from 1950 to 1957, sought to keep blacks out of predominantly white neighborhoods. The convention center opened on the Detroit River waterfront in 1960, three years after Cobo died. Board wants more ark taxes LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A Christian theme park with a 500-foot-long Noah’s Ark is not paying enough in property taxes, according to a Kentucky county school board. Grant County’s school board filed a lawsuit against the Ark Encounter after losing an administrative appeal. The school board alleges the theme park has been undervalued by county officials. The park in northern Kentucky preaches a literal interpretation of the Bible’s Old Testament. The centerpiece is a massive wooden ark that houses exhibits telling the biblical story of Noah, who built the giant boat to survive the flood. The lawsuit by the school board filed in July said the county’s property valuation administrator assessed the park’s worth at $48 million in 2017. The school board argued the Ark Encounter is worth much more, perhaps up to $130 million, meaning it is paying thousands less in property taxes than it should. County schools are funded by property taxes. �Opinion 4 Wednesday, August 28, 2019 Daily Sentinel THEIR VIEW A valuable life lesson reaffirmed I have been physically active for as long as I can remember. Of course, the definition of being physically active a couple of weeks from becoming Medicare-eligible is a far cry from what being physically active meant 30 or 40 years ago. As a younger man, I played several team sports, then, thanks to the aging process, things changed. While I continued to play some sports into my 40, the intensity Tom with which I competed was nowhere Dunn near where it was as a young man. Contributing Then when my skills deteriorated columnist even further, running, bike riding, and strength training became my primary go-to activities, because they could be done at my own pace without the need to find a pick-up game full of similarly aged old guys. As I aged, I stubbornly resisted the natural inclination of people my age to take up golf to satisfy their competitive instincts. When my peers would ask me if I had taken the game up yet, my standard reply was that I would take do so when I couldn’t do anything else. Well, I’m there. In my first year of retirement, I have begun to play golf with some earnest, and the lessons I have learned have been many. First of all, hitting a little white ball where you want it to go is a lot harder than it looks. I’ve also learned that a little patience goes a long way in some sports and that not every activity demands all-out intensity every second you play it. But, the most important lesson is not a new revelation, but is, rather, a reaffirmation of what I learned decades ago, that being that the “secret” to success is no secret at all. If you want to improve a skill, the best thing you can do is practice … a lot. Over the last 12 months, I have spent many hours and a good deal of money trying to improve my ability to hit a golf ball in some semblance of the direction I want it to go. When I began, I was lucky if that occurred one in 10 times. Many hours of practice, a few blisters, and many aching muscles later, I can hit it in the general direction I’m aiming more than half the time, and I have “graduated” to trying to control the distance the ball flies, which is a whole different animal. I’m still not very good, but I am a lot better than I was a year ago, and, barring illness or death, I’m going to be better a year from now than I am today simply because I am willing to work at it. In other words, I’ve set a goal, and I’m going to work hard to achieve it. In today’s world of specialization, it seems that the importance of setting goals, then working hard to achieve them is undervalued. More emphasis is often placed on factors like receiving specialized coaching, improving one’s diet, attending sport-specific camps, and using advanced technology to improve one’s ability. While those may all be important components of improving ourselves, nothing is more valuable than good old fashioned hard work, whether it’s in sports, in school, or in one’s job. Ultimately, how much effort we put into the things we do matters. That is why I’ve always been intrigued by the number of parents who seem to operate under the illusion that sending their kids to a sports camps for one week out of a year is somehow crucial to their athletic success, because it’s not. In fact, parents who spend money on a week long camp for a child who doesn’t spend any time at all outside of that week working to improve his or her skills are wasting their money. It’s not the one week that is the key to success; it’s the other fifty-one that are more important, and the notion that hard work matters is a very simple lesson we can teach our kids. Hopefully, young people understand that Golden State’s Steph Curry isn’t the best shooter in the world because he attended a basketball camp when he was young, or that Tiger Woods didn’t become the best golfer in the world because he enrolled in golf camps as a teenager, or that a NASA scientist didn’t achieve greatness because he or she went to a space camp for a week while in elementary school. It’s the tens of thousands of hours they spent honing their skills when no one was watching that mattered most. As parents, one of the most important lessons we can teach our kids is that setting realistic goals, then working as hard as possible to achieve them is the “secret” to their success. To pretend otherwise is doing them a great disservice. Tom Dunn is the former superintendent of the Miami County Educational Service Center in Ohio. THEIR VIEW Some glory-seeking Democrats As Democratic candidates rush to be president, fund raise, attack each other, and make promises — some of which they have no intention of keeping, and some of which are impossible to keep — I think of Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave.” Maybe you read this at a time in your distant past, and I’m hoping you philosophers out there will forgive me for simplifying it because I have no intention of writing about the Theory of Forms. I want to summarize the beginning of the allegory and quote from the ending because I have a strong sense that many of us are like those in the cave. Socrates is teaching a young Athenian named Glaucon and describes a cave in which the inhabitants are chained to a wall and can neither turn their heads to the right nor to the left. All they see are shadows on a wall and those shadows become their sense of reality. Socrates asserts that most human beings cannot leave the cave and are doomed to a life of be ongoing, never believing that realgiving us room to ity is what they are breathe, to handle experiencing. They, issues we value thus, are unable to such as family, comprehend that work, spiritual virtue and wisdom matters. are the “ true blessSome of you ings of life.” Dr. Vivian might retort, “It’s Socrates asserts Blevins that the philosoContributing always been this way, Vivian.

Some love the nasty These battles seem to politics; some earn their living by engaging in the brouhaha. I want each political party to put in writing what it stands for and how it plans to make this country better, stronger. Too many wriggle about, engage in double talk, and refuse to answer the questions that are put to them. I want clarity about national debt, taxes, deregulation, climate change, wildlife preservation, social services, entrepreneurship, racial issues, immigration, criminal justice, the opioid crisis, education, international relations and other issues we face. We all know what happened to Socrates, the social and moral critic. He was sentenced to death. So be it for those who want to upset the status quo, metaphorically speaking of course. Vivian B.

Today’s Highlight in History On August 28, 1955, Emmett Till, a black teen-ager from Chicago, was abducted from his uncle’s home in Money, Mississippi, by two white men after he had supposedly whistled at a white woman; he was found brutally slain three days later. On this date In 1916, Italy declared war on Germany during World War I. In 1944, during World War II, German forces in Toulon and Marseille (mahr-SAY’), France, surrendered to Allied troops. In 1963, more than 200,000 people listened as the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his “I Have a Dream” speech in front of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. In 1968, police and anti-war demonstrators clashed in the streets of Chicago as the Democratic National Convention nominated Hubert H. Humphrey for president. In 1987, a fire damaged the Arcadia, Fla., home of Ricky, Robert and Randy Ray, three hemophiliac brothers infected with AIDS whose court-ordered school attendance had sparked a local uproar. Academy Award-winning movie director John Huston died in Middletown, R.I., at age 81. In 1990, an F5 tornado struck the Chicago area, killing 29 people. In 1996, Democrats nominated President Bill Clinton for a second term at their national convention in Chicago. The troubled 15-year marriage of Britain’s Prince Charles and Princess Diana officially ended with the issuing of a divorce decree. THOUGHT FOR TODAY “The opposite of love is not hate, it’s indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness, it’s indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it’s indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it’s indifference.” — Elie Wiesel (EL’-ee vee-ZEHL’) Romanian-born journalist-author In 2005, New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin (NAY’gin) ordered everyone in the city to evacuate after Hurricane Katrina grew to a monster storm. In 2008, surrounded by an enormous, adoring crowd at Invesco Field in Denver, Barack Obama accepted the Democratic presidential nomination, promising what he called a clean break from the “broken politics in Washington and the failed policies of George W. Bush.” In 2012, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney swept to the Republican presidential nomination at a stormdelayed national convention in Tampa, Florida. In 2013, a military jury sentenced Maj. Nidal Hasan to death for the 2009 shooting rampage at Fort Hood that claimed 13 lives. On the 50th anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech at the Lincoln Memorial, President Barack Obama stood on the same steps as he challenged new generations to seize the cause of racial equality. In 2017, floodwaters reached the rooflines of single-story homes as Hurricane Harvey poured rain on the Houston area for a fourth consecutive day; thousands of people had been rescued from the flooding. �NEWS Daily Sentinel Wednesday, August 28, 2019 5 Show From page 1 Pomeroy; 2nd Halo M.

With Cleveland’s season opener on Sept. 8 against Tennessee quickly approaching, Beckham, who has been slowed by a hip injury, returned to team drills during practice on Monday for the first time in nearly three weeks. Before the morning workout, the three-time Pro Bowler had not been on the field with quarterback Baker Mayfield, Jarvis Landry and the rest of the starting offense since Aug. 6. “He looked good,” coach Freddie Kitchens said afterward. “It’s good to have him back out. We’ve been working on the side with him with other things. It’s just the natural progression, so it was good to have him back.” Beckham had been taking part only in individual drills while dealing with the hip issue, which the Browns have insisted was nothing too serious. The 26-year-old made By Randy Payton For Ohio Valley Publishing RIO GRANDE, Ohio — Registration is currently underway for the Rio Fall Basketball Academy, which will run on Sundays throughout most of September and into the early part of October at the Newt Oliver Arena. The league features two divisions — a senior division (10-foot goals) for sixth, seventh and eighth grade students and a junior division (9-foot goals) for third, fourth and fifth grade students — for both boys and girls. The league will also offer instruction in team concepts and fundamentals in a controlled game atmosphere. Each team will receive coaching instruction from the University of Rio Grande men’s and women’s basketball players. “We’ve developed the academy over the past few years as a way to promote the game of basketball,” said URG men’s basketball head coach Ken French. “It’s an hour of instruction and an hour of 5-on-5 game play. Our staff sets up the day, almost like a regular practice day or a camp day, and we try to teach them some things. The object is to not only improve, but for the kids to work on fine-tuning their fundamentals in the fall before the new season rolls around.” The session for boys will run Sept. 8, 15 and 29 and Oct. 6, from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. The girls session is set for Sept. 8, 15, 22 and 29 from 4 until 6 p.m. Cost is $75 per player, which can paid in advance or on the first Sunday of the academy. Space is very limited and participants are encouraged to register in advance. “The academy has been a great success for us in a ton of ways,” said Rio women’s basketball head coach David Smalley. “Number one, we create such a great relationship with the young girls who attend. We’ll have a handful of them come to our games and sit on the bench with us as an honorary coach, which is a great way to have fellowship and develop friendships. Plus, I think it’s great way for both the men’s and women’s programs to give back to the community. We saturate the area with our needs as far as fundraising goes and there are people who bend over backwards to help us out. While this is a fundraiser for us, we’re also giving back to the youth of the area and it’s a great skill development project for the kids. We try to teach them, but at the same time, they get to do what they really want and that’s play the game.” For more information, please contact French at (740) 245-7294 or by e-mail at basketball@rio.edu Smalley can be reached at (740) 245-7491 or by e-mail at dsmalley@rio.edu Online registration is also available on the school’s athletics website, www.rioredstorm.com sharp cuts, ran at full speed and made several catches during 11 on 11 drills. He also did extra work in the red zone on the side with Mayfield as they try to establish chemistry to make up for lost time. Beckham didn’t play in any of Cleveland’s first three exhibition games, and the star won’t play Thursday night when the Browns conclude the preseason at home against Detroit. Beckham has been in catch-up mode almost from March, when the Browns acquired him from the New York Giants in a blockbuster trade. He skipped most of Cleveland’s voluntary offseason workouts and the extra minicamp while he processed moving to a new team and city. Kitchens believes Beckham and Mayfield are connecting, and there’s no need to force them to do more even though season will start in less than two weeks. “They’ve been working through the whole camp as it is,” Kitchens said. “Just because he wasn’t in team drills doesn’t mean they weren’t working. It’s fairly easy, you learn where to line up, learn what to do, learn the depth and the area you’re supposed to be in, and you’ve got it just about figured out. I think he’s a smart guy and he’s coming along.” Kitchens said the Browns will continue to bring Beckham along slowly. “We don’t want to overwork him right now,” he said. “We haven’t started playing yet. We haven’t even gotten into game-planning and stuff like that. But they’ll definitely be on top of their game when we start game-planning and timing and stuff like that, rather than just useless things that doesn’t really matter. “At the end of the day, it’s exactly what I said: it’s knowing where to line up, where to be, getting to your depth and then catching the ball. After that, you get the ball in his hands and see what he can do.” NOTES: TE David Njoku took part in team drills after missing last week because he had stitches in his head. … Cleveland’s defensive line is loaded with stars, the biggest being end Myles Garrett. But Devaroe Lawrence, whose competing for a backup spot, isn’t worried that he won’t getting playing time. “They’re good players, but they run out of oxygen, too,” he said, smiling. “They’re going to get tired, so when they tap on that helmet, I’m gone.” … WR Braxton Miller, who was signed last week, worked in the slot with Cleveland’s first-team offense. The former Ohio State quarterback also was a gunner on punt coverage. He’s expected to play a lot on Thursday, when he’ll get a chance to show he belongs on the roster. … Mayfield was just 10 of 16 in Friday’s loss at Tampa Bay and Kitchens said his young QB “wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed” but there were other factors that played into his uncharacteristic inaccuracy. AP SPORTS BRIEFS Browns waive WR Jaelen Strong signed by Cleveland last week. CLEVELAND (AP) — Wide receiver Jaelen Strong has been waived by the Cleveland Browns. Strong posted a thank you Monday night on Twitter, saying Cleveland will “always have a place in my heart.” The team is expected to make an official announcement Tuesday. The 26-year-old Strong was hoping to catch on with the Browns after missing all of last season following knee surgery. He had some impressive moments in training camp and the preseason, but Strong didn’t play well in Friday’s loss at Tampa Bay and the Browns felt he wasn’t worth keeping on their roster. Strong caught a touchdown pass in Cleveland’s second exhibition game at Indianapolis. A fourth-year pro, Strong played in 19 games for Houston and one with Jacksonville.

Point golfers fall at Roane County FanDuel debuts sportsbook app in West Virginia WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. (AP) — A West Virginia resort owned by Gov. Jim Justice has launched a sportsbook app with fantasy sports company FanDuel. The app debuted Monday for use by people inside West Virginia’s border. Last year, New York-based FanDuel reached an agreement for retail, online and mobile sports wagering services for The Greenbrier resort in White Sulphur Springs. It’s the company’s first sports betting arrangement with a U.S. resort. West Virginia lawmakers last year approved sports betting at five casinos and approved mobile apps, shortly before the U.S. Supreme Court overturned a federal law that had banned most sports betting. Justice allowed the bill to become law without his signature. By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com WEDNESDAY EVENING SPENCER, W.Va. — A silver lining to an otherwise tough outing. The Point Pleasant golf team came up four strokes short of host Roane County on Monday during a nonconference dual held at Roane County Golf Club. The Black Knights finished the day with a final team tally of 204, while the Raiders posted four of the top six individual scores en route to a winning total of 200. PPHS, however, recorded two of the top three individual rounds, led by event medalist Brennen Sang with a 7-over par round of 43. Teammate Joe Milhoan and Regan Lynch of RCHS shared runner-up honors with identical efforts of 46. Kaden McCutcheon and Weston Higginbotham completed the Point Pleasant team scoring with respective rounds of 56 and 59. Alex Hill also fired a final tally of 61 for PPHS. Chase Blain followed Lynch with a 48, while Jaden Swearinger and Drew Goad posted matching rounds of 53 to complete the winning score. Kason Hupp also shot a 65 for the Raiders.

(AP) — Denny Hamlin has not finished lower than fifth since early July and his current six-race streak includes two victories in the last four races, a pair of runner-ups and a third-place finish. A year removed from the first winless season of his NASCAR career, Hamlin is officially a title threat again. He is third in the standings, tied with Joe Gibbs Racing teammates Kyle Busch and Martin Truex Jr. with Cup-series highs of four wins each, and has the confidence to finally grab his first championship. Hamlin heads to Darlington Raceway for Sunday night’s Southern 500. He is a two-time winner at Darlington and his average finish on one of the most challenging tracks in NASCAR is sixth. After patiently chasing down Matt DiBenedetto in the closing laps at Bristol Motor Speedway, Hamlin briefly revealed he has put in personal work this year to be more accountable while focusing on improving himself overall. “I just think eventually you get older,” said Hamlin, who turns 39 (740) 446-2342 or fax to (740) 446-3008 XXX�NZEBJMZTFOUJOFM�DPN�t�HEUDMBTTJöFET!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN HEUMFHBMT!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN AUCTIONS Auto Auction The following vehicle(s) will be available for public sale on Friday, August 30, 2019 at Dave's Supreme Auto Sales LLC, 1393 Jackson Pike Gallipolis, OH 45631, at 1:00 pm.

I see my kids grow up. I don’t know, eventually you’ve got to grow up and see the bigger picture. I think for me, a lot of soul searching, things like that, to figure out what makes me happy and being content with kind of who I am, the successes and the failures. Everyone is imperfect.

As I’ve focused on being a better person outside the race car, it is directly, whether it be coincidence or not, it’s directly linked to my on track performance.” Hamlin won at least one race each year his first 12 seasons and in 2010 and 2014 had clear shots to win the Cup title only to squander both opportunities. The 2010 failure to You’ve got to embrace it.” Joe Gibbs has seen the changes this season, which also coincide with the pairing of a new crew chief. Chris Gabehart led Hamlin to a season-opening Daytona 500 victory — his second Daytona win — and immediately put last year’s winless season behind the No. 11 team. The win came less than a month after the death of JGR executive J.D. Gibbs, who is credited with discovering Hamlin and bringing him to the powerhouse NASCAR team. Joe Gibbs believe Gabehart has been steady for Hamlin, and that winning races in honor of J.D. Gibbs has been a motivating factor. “I think Chris deserves a lot of credit. I think he’s really got Denny grounded,” Gibbs said. “I think when you get a lot of confidence going with the crew chief, it makes a huge difference. It’s a huge deal for me when I see J.D. (the name) over the door in the winner’s circle. Seeing Denny have this kind of year, it just makes me realize how much we miss (J.D) and how much he means to our race team, what he means to Denny, too.” (304) 675-1333 or fax to (304) 675-5234 XXX�NZEBJMZTFOUJOFM�DPN�t�HEUDMBTTJöFET!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN HEUMFHBMT!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY MOTOR ROUTE Ellm View Apts. &DOO IRU DPHQLWLHV� /DQGORUG SD\V :DWHU� 7UDVK� 6HZDJH� 5HQW� ���� 8S� ��� ��� ���� Equal Housing Opportunity NOTICE BY PUBLICATION FARMERS BANK AND SAVINGS COMPANY, PLAINTIFF, VS.

Young is No. 5 Ohio State ‘s best player and was named to the preseason Associated Press All-America team presented by Regions Bank. The 6-foot-5, 265pound defensive end with startling quickness and a mean streak rarely stops cheering, cajoling and trash-talking. “Every day we’re expected to have the most juice,” Young said of the defensive front. Last year, after star defensive end Nick Bosa went down with an injury in the third game, Young carried the flag for the Buckeyes’ “Rushmen,” piling up 10 sacks, 15.5 tackles for a loss and 77 quarterback pressures and establishing himself as one of the most dynamic linemen in the country. The Maryland native did it a lot of the time with sore ankles. Young became only the eighth player in Ohio State history to record double-digit sacks in a season. If he can do it again in this, his junior year and likely his last in Columbus, he will become only the second to have double-digits sacks in a season. Mike Vrabel, now head coach of the NFL’s Tennessee Titans, did it in 1994 and ‘95. Rated as the seventh overall prospect nationally coming out of high school in 2017, Young is bright on the national radar now, and is set up for monster year as the Buckeyes featured pass rusher. “I feel like looking at the film from last year, I can use my hands a lot better,” Young said. “I feel like I can get off the ball better. It’s just a lot of stuff where I’m really nitpicky about.” This season he’s also expected to set an example. “The guys like him,” Ohio State coach Ryan Day said. “He has a happy-go-lucky personality. I see more seriousness now. I think he knows this is his time to step up and be a leader.” Defensive line coach Larry Johnson can hardly wait to see what’s going Photo by Don Speck Ohio State #2 Chase Young takes down Tulane #1 Jonathan Banks for a loss at Ohio Stadium on the campus of The Ohio State University September 22th 2018.
