He described the layoffs as “some indefinite, others A RT only to the first of the year” and indicated that in his department two police officers and another employee or two would be laid off, He went on to emphasize that the police department will still be able to “protect and serve just as before.” Council set a special meeting for Monday, Oct. 31, for opening bids on Pomeroy’s project of separating the water and sewer systems in the vil- IN THE lage to prevent further flowing of sewage into the Ohio River and to corr e c t o t h e r s y s t e m p r o b l e m s .

Director Bill Marshall See Pomeroy, A2 MIDDLEPORT — The Village of Middleport has taken advantage of some cost-cutting measures to keep construction costs at a minimum, as work continues on the conversion of the Middleport Elementary School on Pearl Street into a new village hall. Mayor Michael Gerlach said the village’s jailer, Mony Wood, attended last weekend’s auction at the old Veterans Memorial Hospital and spent just over $600 on items that can be used to furnish the new village hall. Gerlach said the village took advantage of the sale to purchase filing cabinets for records storage, dishes and equipment that will be used to serve meals to inmates, and other items that will save the village money. Purchasing the items new, Gerlach said, would have cost the village thousands. The filing cabinets alone would have been a huge investment if purchased new, because the village has a dire need to improve its record storage system. Additionally, the village has already received nearly $12,000 in energy rebates through American Electric Power for energyefficient measures taken in construction of the new village hall, Gerlach said. Construction on the new village hall is on schedule, and the village should be in its new headquarters by early next year, Gerlach said. He said the new jail is the only jail under construction in Ohio, and said the village has already received inquiries from other villages and counties about using the jail to house inmates. Gerlach said recent state legislation that places the burden for housing those convicted of minor felonies will create an additional demand on the jail, and cited a recent report on savings Meigs County has realized by housing inmates in the Middleport facility rather than in jails further away. The new village hall will cost just under $1 million to construct, and officials hope jail revenue will offset the cost of construction, financed through the issuance of bonds. In addition to a 10bed jail for men and women, the new village hall will also house offices for the mayor and clerk, village administrator, and show.

Ohio Dems plan challenge to new congressional map COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio’s Democratic chairman says the party is preparing to ask the Ohio Supreme Court to weigh in on a last-minute legislative maneuver by Republicans intended to shield Ohio’s new congressional map from a ballot challenge. Chris Redfern said Tuesday the party wants the high court to decide whether lawmakers acted legally when they added an appropriation to the redistricting bill as it neared approval last week. Bills with such a monetary component are immune from repeal under Ohio’s Constitution. However, the Supreme Court ruled in a high-profile 2009 case that a group challenging then-Democratic Gov. Ted Strickland’s plan to legalize racetrack slots had a right to challenge the plan even though it was part of a state budget bill filled with such spending directives. Six of seven justices are Republican. New abortion rules for minors clear Ohio Senate COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The Ohio Senate has approved a bill that contains new requirements before a minor can be allowed to have an abortion without her parents agreeing to it. Under the bill, a judge considering whether to let a girl bypass the state’s parental consent requirement would have to ask if she understands the physical and emotional impacts of having an abortion. The judge also must ask the girl if she was coached on how to answer such questions. The Senate passed the measure Tuesday on a 23-8 vote. The House has passed the bill, but must OK the Senate’s changes before the measure goes to the governor. Supporters say the legislation is needed to rein in judges who frequently give approval, though opponents contend it’s about trying to score political points. Woman found dead near Ohio train tracks stabbed MIAMISBURG, Ohio (AP) — Authorities say a woman found dead near railroad tracks in southwest Ohio died of multiple stab wounds. Montgomery County coroner’s investigator Mike Fox says the death of 20-year-old Lisa E. Spinks, of Miamisburg, has been ruled a homicide. A train crew for a rail transportation company reported the body Sunday in Miamisburg, southwest of Dayton. Miamisburg police Capt. Ron Hess told the Dayton Daily News that two men currently in jail have been interviewed about Spinks’ death. Hess is meeting with prosecutors on the case Tuesday afternoon. Police have said they hope video from trains that have used the track recently can offer clues to what happened.

Ohio changes welfare program to avoid federal fine COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio is changing its welfare program to avoid $136 million in federal fines after missing benchmarks for how many participants are working or pursuing employment. Gov. John Kasich ordered the changes Monday, ahead of a Thursday deadline. The fines were levied for Ohio’s failure to meet a requirement that at least half of families drawing benefits were employed or seeking work. Ohio has missed that mark since 2007, and fines have not yet been assessed for 2010. The changes include a separate Ohio-run welfare program using state funds, increasing staff to hear appeals from people who lose their benefits, and standardizing how benefits are awarded throughout all of Ohio’s 88 counties. Ohio election law foes confident in repeal effort COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio’s Democratic Party chairman says opponents of the state’s new election law have the signatures needed to block the overhaul from taking effect until after next year’s presidential election. The law shortens the state’s early voting period, which helped President Barack Obama in his first run for the White House. Obama’s re-election campaign, the state’s Democratic Party and others have been working to gather the roughly 231,000 valid signatures needed by Thursday to ask voters on 2012 ballots whether the law should be tossed out. Chairman Chris Redfern told reporters Tuesday that opponents soon will hand in more than 300,000 signatures in their repeal effort. Election officials would then have to verify the signatures and determine whether opponents met the state’s requirements for a referendum. Judge: Alleged Ohio pill mill couple to stay free CINCINNATI (AP) — A judge is allowing an Ohio couple facing federal charges of illegally distributing prescription pain pills to remain free pending the start of their trial. The government wanted the bonds of Nancy and Lester Sadler revoked. It says the couple lied about their income while receiving court-appointed attorneys and frequently visited out-of-state casinos, spending thousands. U.S. District Court Judge Sandra Beckwith rejected the government’s request in a one-page order filed Tuesday. Beckwith required the couple to file a new financial affidavit and to update the courts on their finances monthly. Last month, Beckwith banned them from going to casinos. A 2010 indictment alleges the couple illegally distributed painkillers at a clinic in Waverly in southern Ohio. • Taking Applications The Maples • HUD Subsidized Efficiency/1 Bedroom 50 years of age or qualifying disability Low income priority All Utilities 740-992-7022 Are Paid Silverheels A Realty Company-EHO 60190342 Mildred Shuler Wednesday: A chance of showers, mainly after 2 p.m. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 71.

Rusty Starcher and Brenda Davis representing the Meigs County Bikers and the Christian Bikers, met with Council to discuss the annual Meigs County Memorial Bike Run which attracts hundreds of bikers from across the state. Starcher said the proposal this year is to run the route as usual leaving from the Pomeroy parking lot but then returning there for fun and games, rather than having the bikers disburse to other locations for food and entertainment. He said this could mean business for Pomeroy since local vendors would be invited to set up on the parking lot and local businesses would be encouraged to have open hours. As for the activities on the parking lot there would be a custom bike show, live music, and games. Council voted to work with the bikers on their proposal and to reserve the parking lot area for their use after the Memorial Day run, with details to be handled through the village’s park and recreation committee. • Mazie Hannahs • From Page A1 Meigs County Forecast • Pomeroy • Obituaries The Daily Sentinel • Page A2 www.mydailysentinel.com • Wednesday, September 28, 2011 �The Daily Sentinel Page A3 BY THE BEND Wednesday, September 28, 2011 A S K D R .

You'll be more energetic, and the physically more-aggressive stance you're taking will come through in your voice. Also, when standing up we tend to have better posture and take fuller breaths, and both of these things can make your voice sound more powerful. 2. TRUE. Unfortunately, when many people think "dress for success," they think "suit." But in many workplaces nowadays, wearing a full suit may actually make you seem out of touch with the general office culture. If everyone is wearing slacks and button-down shirts, you don't want to be dressed in a conservative suit. Take note of Dr. Joyce Brothers what people around you are wearing, especially your direct superiors, and match your level of formality to theirs. It is important, though, to always look put-together, neat and clean. 3. TRUE. If it seems appropriate for your meeting environment, standing when speaking can give you more authority. When giving a presentation, you always want to stand rather than sit, and even getting out of your chair when a co-worker drops by your office can change the power dynamic. Standing also can make you more visible, which can work in your favor by increasing the odds that you'll be called on to speak earlier. If standing isn't an option, take a seat in front or at a main table. This also will increase your visibility. 4. FALSE. Actually, the opposite is true. If you surround yourself with confident people, their attitudes will rub off on you. You also can use them as a learning tool -- all you have to do is ask. People who already have mastered the art of confidence can be a great resource for learning how to be more confident. 5. TRUE. It may sound simple, but if you've ever felt confident before, you have the power to be confident all the time. If you spend a little time every day -- even 15 minutes is enough -recalling times when you felt confident and re-accessing that feeling in detail, it will become a more natural state of mind. If you were able to answer three of the five questions correctly, you are more informed than most on this subject.

Annual premiums for family coverage climbed 9 percent and surpassed $15,000 for the first time, according to a report released Tuesday by the Kaiser Family Foundation and the Health Research and Educational Trust. Premiums for single coverage rose 8 percent compared to 2010. That compares to increases last year of 3 and 5 percent for family and single coverage, respectively. The study shows that premiums for both family and single coverage have more than doubled since 2001, while worker wages have risen 34 percent. Kaiser CEO Drew Altman said a number of factors may have played a role in this year’s percentage jump. He noted that health care costs continue to rise, and insurer profits and the health care overhaul also have some impact. The overhaul, which Congress passed last year, aims to eventually cover millions of uninsured people. Kaiser said initial provisions of the law contributed between 1 and 2 percentage points to this year’s premium hikes, which is about what many insurance analysts and benefits experts expected. Companies and workers split premiums for employer-sponsored coverage, the most common form of health insurance in the United States, and employers generally pick up 70 percent of the bill or more. Businesses likely reacted to these cost increases by giving a smaller raise or no wage increase to their workers, said Helen Darling, CEO of the National Business Group on Health, a nonprofit organization that represents large employers on health care issues. “(Workers) basically are giving their pay raise to the health system,” said Darling, who was not involved with the Kaiser study. “It’s really bad news.” The annual study was conducted earlier this year and includes results from more than 2,000 companies nationwide. It also indicates that many more families than previously believed have benefited from a popular provision in the overhaul that allows young adults to stay on a parent’s health plan until they turn 26. “(Workers) basically are giving their pay raise to the health system,” said Darling, who was not involved with the Kaiser study. “It’s really bad news.” Kaiser asked employers how many people were added to their insurance plans because of this provision and estimated that 2.3 million young adults enrolled. Last week the government had reported that the number of uninsured young adults had dropped by nearly 1 million since the law took effect, a finding independently corroborated by The Daily Sentinel Reader Services (USPS 213-960) Correction Policy Ohio Valley Publishing Co.

The difference isn’t necessarily a contradiction. The Kaiser survey may have counted young adults who were covered by a more expensive policy and switched to their parent’s plan to save money. Many workers are about to receive notices from their employers regarding health insurance coverage for next year. Altman said he cannot say whether this year’s increase represents a bad omen for 2012 or if it is just a one-year blip. Insurers have been saying for months that health care use is growing more slowly this year, something industry observers pin on a sluggish economy. Altman and other benefits experts say that could lead to lower premium increases next year, since insurers base their rates in part on how often people use care. Benefits consultant Mercer said earlier this month an employer survey it did shows that 2012 health insurance costs will rise by the smallest amount since 1997. The Kaiser survey shows a steady increase in companies offering high-deductible plans, which come with lower premiums but make consumers pay more out of pocket for care. This insurance is often paired with health savings accounts that let people save pretax for medical expenses. Altman said he expects that trend to continue growing as employers try to control premiums. “This is the main tool that employers have in the toolbox right now, so we’re going to see more and more highdeductible plans with bigger and bigger deductibles,” he said. Page A4 Wednesday, September 28, 2011 Rick Perry’s border problem BY RICH LOWRY Rick Perry stumbled through much of the last Republican debate, but not when speaking about immigration. He issued a clarion condemnation of critics of his state’s policy of giving the children of illegal immigrants instate tuition to college. Such naysayers, Perry declared, lack “a heart.” The Texas governor prides himself on his distinctness from George W. Bush, yet on this issue he sounds just like him: scolding his party for its lack of compassion for immigrants coming here to make a go of it. If Perry had wanted to avoid raising the hackles of Republicans with the imputation of heartlessness, he could have borrowed the staple Bush line: “Family values don’t stop at the Rio Grande.” Neither, more relevantly, does the desire to find a job. What Perry portrays as the great American job machine in his state has mostly benefited people who aren’t Americans, according to a new study by the Center for Immigration Studies. This significant caveat to the Texas Miracle raises the larger question of why the country has continued to welcome millions of new immigrants during the past few years while shedding millions of jobs. In Texas, the study finds, 81 percent of the jobs created since 2007 have gone to immigrants who arrived in the United States since 2007. Ninety-three percent of these immigrants aren’t citizens. An estimated 50 percent are illegal immigrants. All of this may be further testament to the status of Texas as a jobs magnet, but Perry won’t be bragging about this indication of its drawing power. In this same period, the native-born accounted 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 for almost 70 percent of the population growth in Texas. They didn’t experience the same gains in employment, though. “The share of workingage natives holding a job in Texas declined significantly,” the study finds, “from 71 percent in 2007 to 67 percent in 2011.” In the second quarter of this year, the unemployment rate for natives in Texas, 8.1 percent, ranked 22nd in the country, and the share of natives holding a job, 66.6 percent, ranked 29th. “The share of working-age natives holding a job in Texas declined significantly,” the study finds, “from 71 percent in 2007 to 67 percent in 2011.” If providing ready employment opportunities for non-Americans seems awfully cosmopolitan for the man who is supposed to be a famous rube from Paint Creek, it’s the Texas way. The unpleasantness of the Alamo aside, the Lone Star State has always had a close relationship with its neighbor to the south. And a wideopen attitude is good politics. In welcoming all comers, Perry can do the bidding of a business community that wants the immigrant labor and simultaneously appeal to the Hispanic vote. If anyone should think to complain that he’s soft on illegal immigration, well, now, that’s why God created the pointless gesture, isn’t it? Perry can ostentatiously send Texas Rangers to the border and lambaste the federal government’s failures, but none of it matters if it’s relatively easy for illegals to find a job. Another border state, Arizona, implemented an e-verify system requiring employers to check the immigration status of prospective employees. It led to a dramatic reduction in the population of illegals, many of whom have, no doubt, decamped to Texas. So long as he doesn’t implement e-verify, Perry is shooting holes in the bottom of U.S.S. Enforcement and demanding that the feds bail faster. It would be much too simplistic to say that every new immigrant employed in Texas took his job from a native. On the other hand, it would be much too Pollyannish to deny that there must be crowding out, especially of natives who don’t have a college degree. At least Texas has been creating jobs. The country has lost about 7 million jobs since the onset of the recession in 2007 and continued to import another 1 million new immigrant workers a year, and 200,000300,000 illegal immigrants on top of them. In August, monthly job growth ground to halt, yet we’re welcoming some 100,000 new immigrants a month. Is it heartless to wonder why this makes any sense?

Jolly Ranchers 4-H members Shannon Brown and Shelby Pickens performed an equestrian drill for the National Anthem and also demonstrated barrel racing. The drill was choreographed by Debbie Snyder of Horseman Precision Entertainment with photography by Sharon Dean. An in-service on disability awareness was given to volunteers by Catherine Moon from Carleton. Dee Kimes, Naturalist from Forked Run State Park and 4-H Fun and Feathers advisor, along with her daughter Kelsey, also a 4-H member, provided a variety of animals for the adults to learn about. This handson experience included a garter snake, ring snake, box turtle, cat, pair of hamsters, guinea pigs, lion head rabbits and chinchillas. Miniature horses with cart demonstration and dogs were also on site for petting.

Ohio is in the top 10 apple-producing states with an average of more than 90 million pounds each year, according to Dodd. Orchard owner Valerie Snyder, of Ashland in northern Ohio, had been worried about the effects of the heavy spring rains on this year’s harvest before the season turned around. “We couldn’t get out and mow until June,” Snyder told the Ashland-Times Gazette. A successful harvest includes apples with no scabbing, good size and an overall “clean” crop, Snyder said. Some growers in Ohio had reported problems with scab, a disease caused by a fungus that forms ugly brown or greenish-black pockmarks on the fruit’s skin and has affected orchards in Ohio and some other states, Dodd told The Associated Press on Tuesday. Scab is a blemish considered unacceptable by retailers. “At the first of June, growers had been very concerned that scab could be a major problem, but the crop looks good now,” he said. Fortunately, most growers were able remove any apples with scab this year when they thinned their crop, a common practice they do to help fruit size, Dodd said. Dodd said it isn’t a bumper crop, but looks to be in line with the state’s fiveyear harvest. The only problem right now is rain that has slowed the harvest a bit, but Dodd doesn’t see that as a major problem. Truck taking huge clock to Indiana crashes in Ohio ENGLEWOOD, Ohio (AP) — The driver of a tractor-trailer hauling a giant clock to an Indiana courthouse says he had a coughing fit and lost control on an Ohio highway, sending the vehicle into a ditch. WDTN-TV reports the crash happened Monday on westbound Interstate 70 near Englewood, northwest of Dayton. The driver wasn’t hurt. State troopers told WHIOTV that the truck’s fuel tanks were punctured in the crash. Some fuel spilled near the rain-swollen ditch, and crews were working to clean it up. The truck was headed to Indiana’s Randolph County, just over the state line. The clock was to be used on a courthouse in Winchester. WHIO-TV said the clock did not appear to be significantly damaged. Cleveland-area health system plans to cut 450 jobs CLEVELAND (AP) — The Cleveland health care system that includes a county-owned hospital plans to cut 450 jobs as it tries to reduce costs and counter losses. MetroHealth System chief Mark Moran tells The Plain Dealer about 150 employees who have left won’t be replaced, and managers will decide how the remaining layoffs will be divided. The newspaper says MetroHealth is working to cut $30 million from its budget. It has instituted a hiring freeze and said it’s on track to lose more than $1 million this year. �� � � � �� � � � � � �� � � � � � � � �� � � � �� ��� � � � � � � � � � � � �� � � �� ��� � �� � � � �� ��� � �� � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �� � � � �� � � � � � � � � � �� � � �� �� � � � � � �� � � � � � �� �� � � � � � � � � �� � � � �� �� � ��� � � � � � � � � �� � � �� � ��� � � � � � � �� � ��� � � � � � �� � ��� � �� � � � � �� � � � � � � � � Adam Ritchie, MD �Wednesday, September 28, 2011 BLONDIE BEETLE BAILEY FUNKY WINKERBEAN HAGAR THE HORRIBLE HI & LOIS MUTTS www.mydailysentinel.com The Daily Sentinel • Page A6 Dean Young/Denis Lebrun Mort Walker Today’s Answers Tom Batiuk Chris Browne Brian and Greg Walker THE LOCKHORNS William Hoest Patrick McDonnell Jacquelene Bigar’s ZITS THE FAMILY CIRCUS Bil Keane DENNIS THE MENACE Hank Ketchum Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman CONCEPTIS SUDOKU by Dave Green HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, Sept. 28, 2011: This year, you feel empowered.

The rookie quarterback is starting to play like one. And the fans don’t seem to care, judging by all the empty seats. It’s grim again for the Cincinnati Bengals. A 13-8 loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday was a flashback to the worst times. Paul Brown Stadium was one-third empty, the smallest crowd for a home opener in 30 years. Andy Dalton threw two late interceptions that led to the loss. Now, at 1-2, the Bengals have to try to rally themselves by insisting it’s too early to worry. Up next: 3-0 Buffalo, the only unbeaten team left in the AFC. “There’s really not a big change,” coach Marvin Lewis said Monday. “We’re early in the year. We’ve got a lot of season ahead of us. And you know, at the end of the week when we’re 2-2, there’s going to be probably the other third of the league is going to be in the same situation. “So I think we have to understand that. That’s where it is early on right now.” Yes, it’s early. And yes, things could get worse. Running back Cedric Benson and cornerback Adam “Pacman” Jones are appealing suspensions this week for offseason arrests. Jones hasn’t played — he’s still recovering from offseason neck surgery — but Benson is invaluable for an offense starting a rookie quarterback and a rookie receiver in A.J. Green. Plus, starting receiver Jerome Simpson is under investigation for a marijuana shipment to his home in northern Kentucky. Nobody has been charged, but Simpson’s involvement has already affected the team. He didn’t practice two days last week. Lewis decided to let him play against the 49ers anyway. Simpson caught only one pass for 6 yards. Lewis said Simpson should have a full week of practice before the home game Sunday against Buffalo. “He’s got to get back after it and have a good week of preparation,” Lewis said, “and he ought to.” Right guard Bobbie Williams has one more game left on his four-game punishment for violating the league’s policy on performance-enhancing substances. That’s just the off-field stuff. On the field, it’s not going so well, either. The Bengals won the season opener in Cleveland by catching the Browns napping with a quick-snap touchdown play. Dalton looked good during a 2422 loss in Denver. In the home opener, the Bengals made a lot of rookie mistakes. “We don’t want it to happen, but it’s going to happen anyway,” said Green, who had a pair of false-start penalties. “We’re all (learning) a new offense, (we have) a rookie quarterback, rookie receivers and first-year receivers playing, so we’re going to have some growing pains. We just have to fight through them.” Fans are tired of it. The Bengals have only two winning records in the last 20 years, one of the deepest stretches of futility in NFL history. Franchise quarterback Carson Palmer decided to retire rather than play another season for the forlorn franchise. Only 43,363 fans showed up at 65,500-seat Paul Brown Stadium on Sunday, their smallest crowd for a home opener since 1981 at Riverfront Stadium. “The only way to get people in here is to win games,” defensive tackle Domata Peko said. Those empty seats aren’t the only reminder of the past. A corner of the stadium gift shop is dedicated to former Bengals. There’s a TOcho rack — jerseys of former receivers Terrell Owens and Chad Ochocinco — hanging under a “Buy 1, Get 1 Free” sign. Camouflage Palmer jerseys and Palmer posters are available at reduced prices. The past, like the present, is a tough sell. Notes: Lewis said there were no significant injuries during the loss to the 49ers. ... The Bengals’ smallest crowds at Paul Brown Stadium came at the end of the 2002 season, when they finished a franchise-worst 2-12 under Dick LeBeau. They drew three crowds under 45,000, with the smallest at 42,092 for a game against Jacksonville on a bitterly cold December afternoon. The stadium opened in 2000. Browns show growth with comeback win BEREA, Ohio (AP) — As the elated Browns celebrated in their locker room, Cleveland’s players didn’t mind that their win on Sunday was ugly. Really ugly. Hideously ugly. Repulsively ugly. Didn’t matter. Warts and all, the Browns (2-1) beat Miami 17-16, rallying in the final minute to get a victory that seemed unattainable for 59 minutes. And, in pulling out the win, they accomplished something more, something that may have gone unnoticed to Cleveland’s younger players. “When all the odds are against you, you come back, you find a way, you keep scratching, clawing and digging and you pull it out, it says a lot about the character on this team,” 10-year veteran right tackle Artis Hicks said. “One thing you can’t coach a team is to fight. “Either the team has it in them or they don’t.” On Sunday, the Browns showed their grit at the end. But for most of the day, they were in a football funk. Quarterback Colt McCoy kept inexplicably missing open receivers and forcing throws as Cleveland’s offense struggled to find any rhythm. With running back Peyton Hillis out sick, return specialist Josh Cribbs unable to field punts or kickoffs because of a groin injury and Miami’s offense eating up the clock, the Browns seemed destined to lose their second straight home game. McCoy, though, led the Browns on an 80-yard scoring drive, capped by a 14-yard TD pass to Mohamed Massaquoi, whose leaping, acrobatic catch with 14 seconds left gave Cleveland fans a chance to finally celebrate after so many late, punchin-the-stomach losses the past few years. Last season alone, the Browns lost seven games by 7 points or less. “In the end, winning does wonders,” linebacker Chris Gocong said. “It really does boost your confidence and winning like that especially. They say that it wasn’t a pretty win, but I thought it was beautiful.” Following the game, coach Pat Shurmur joked that he had upgraded his team’s list of corrections from a “boatload” to a “freighter load of stuff to correct.” On Monday, the Browns, who are 2-1 for the first time in nine years, began fixing their many mistakes. Shurmur’s first priority is to get the Browns to start faster. Cleveland has been outscored 20-0 in the first quarter of its three games, putting the Browns in early holes and forc- ing them to have to play from behind. That’s a dangerous trend, one Shurmur knows needs to be corrected. Shurmur feels the remedy could be as simple as getting his players to slow down. The Browns’ offense isn’t executing early on, and Shurmur said that could be a focus issue. “That’s the message, ‘Listen guys, relax and just execute,’” Shurmur said. “’Take the gimmes, get yards on the runs, get into manageable third downs, let’s move the football and find a way to stay on the field. ... And then the defense doesn’t have to play two-thirds of the game as well.’” The Dolphins dominated time of possession, holding the ball for 37:51 to the Browns’ 22:09, a lopsided statistic that had Shurmur wondering if he had ever seen such an imbalance. While Shurmur didn’t specifically identify McCoy’s uneven performance as troublesome, the secondyear QB’s inaccuracy for most of the game was definitely a problem. Before Cleveland’s final drive, McCoy had completed just 10 passes. He also missed several open targets, including wide receiver Josh Cribbs, who had gotten behind Miami’s secondary.

Bengals rep upset over Benson suspension CINCINNATI (AP) — Bengals union representative Andrew Whitworth is upset that running back Cedric Benson and other NFL players could face suspensions for offseason incidents. Benson and cornerback Adam “Pacman” Jones are subject to league discipline for arrests that occurred during the NFL’s lockout. Eight players overall are facing discipline under the league’s conduct policy. Benson has a hearing scheduled for Tuesday. Whitworth said Monday he wouldn’t have supported the Wednesday’s TV Listings new collective bargaining agreement if he knew players would be suspended for things that happened before the deal was reached. “I was very shocked,” Whitworth said. “It doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me. “I feel like it’s the wrong decision, and I also believe the union let those eight guys down. I don’t feel like that was fair. To me, if I was told that was a make-or-break, I would have said that’s a make-orbreak deal, that we were going to sell out eight guys to have an agreement.” �Wednesday, September 28, 2011 www.mydailysentinel.com The Daily Sentinel • Page A9 Point misses State Tournament; Lucas and Erik Allbright qualify STAFF REPORT WEIRTON, W.Va. — The Point Pleasant Big Blacks varsity golf team came very close, but missed by three strokes for a position in the State High School Golf Tournament.

After all, the first unopposed idea just fell through. The Tri-Valley Conference has officially decided, by a 9-6 vote, to split the current 43-year old league into three separate divisions at the start of the 2014 fall season. The decision — which required only a majority vote (8-7) to pass or fail — was made at the monthly league meeting held on Wednesday, Sept. 14, in Athens County. The current TVC consists of 15 schools and two divisions, with nine smaller-sized schools playing in the Hocking Division and a halfdozen bigger communities competing in the Ohio Division. And on December 8, 2010, league officials were nearly unanimous (14-0 vote in favor with one absent) in inviting River Valley High School to become the 16th TVC program as a member of the Ohio Division in the fall of 2014. The Raiders — who are currently members of the Ohio Valley Conference until the spring of 2014 — accepted those terms, which would have joined them with Athens, Alexander, Meigs, Nelsonville-York, Vinton County and Wellston in a seven-team Ohio Division. The current nine-team Hocking Division is made up of Belpre, Eastern, Federal Hocking, Miller, Southern, South Gallia, Trimble, Wahama and Waterford. With River Valley’s official acceptance, the hope was that one of the nine TVC Hocking programs would volunteer to move up to the bigger TVC Ohio to even the divisions at eight apiece — which would have made scheduling a lot easier year-round. For example, an eightteam division could have seven league games in football over the course of the final seven weeks of the season, leaving three non-conference dates open at the beginning of the year — when practically everyone plays non-league opponents. Basketball, volleyball, baseball and softball would all have 14 league games and enough flexibility for choice non-conference matchups in a pair of eight-team formats as well. Trimble showed some interest in becoming that eighth member of the TVC Ohio in August, but ultimately announced at the September meeting that it wanted to remain a member of the TVC Hocking. And that’s what led to Plan B. The 15 schools then discussed and voted on a split into three divisions, which ended with a 9-6 vote in favor of. Wellston, Belpre, Alexander, Trimble, Miller and Federal Hocking all voted no on the issue, and River Valley did not have a vote in the matter as a current member of the OVC. The new twist mostly affects the Raiders, who will now enter the TVC in 2014 as the 10th member of the Hocking Division. The TVC Hocking will then split into two five-team subdivisions, based mostly on enrollment to keep things balanced. The TVC Ohio will remain unchanged from its current six-team format. The new 10-member TVC Hocking will be divided into a North Division (RVHS, Wahama, Belpre, Trimble and Federal Hocking) and a South Division (Eastern, Southern, South Gallia, Waterford and Miller). This setup allows more flexibility in the scheduling process, which had become a concern of the current Hocking Division members — playing only two non-conference football games and four nonconference contests in basketball. The new two-division TVC Hocking will work as such in the fall of 2014: — FOOTBALL: Each member of a division will play one another in weeks 7-10, which amounts to four league games. The North and South divisions will also have a crossover game in Week 6, but this contest does not count toward the final league standings. With five games filled every season under this format, it allows each program to schedule five non-conference games of choice at the beginning of the season — similar to the current format used by the TVC Ohio. — BASKETBALL: Each member of a division will play one another twice (home-andhome) for a total of eight league games, plus the North and South will face one another once in nonconference matchups for 13 guaranteed games a season. Again, the five crossover games will not count in the league standings. With 22 regular season games allowed in Ohio now, each TVC Hocking program can schedule nine non-conference opponents of choice. — BASEBALL/SOFTBALL: Each member of a division will play one another twice (homeand-home) for a total of eight league games, plus the North and South will face one another once in non-conference matchups for 13 guaranteed games a season. Again, the five crossover games will not count in the league standings. — VOLLEYBALL: Each member of a division will play one another twice (home-andhome) for a total of eight league games, plus the North and South will face one another once in nonconference matchups for 13 guaranteed games a season. Again, the five crossover games will not count in the league standings. There are still some details to be worked out in regards to how league championships will be decided in golf, cross country, wrestling and track and field starting the 2014 school year — which is still over two years away. The addition of more teams to the TVC was also not discussed at the September meeting, meaning that the league appears to be fully-content with 16 members at the start of 2014. Lady Eagles survive scare at Federal Hocking BY SARAH HAWLEY SHAWLEY@MYDAILYTRIBUNE.COM Defenders blank South Point, 8-0 STEWART, Ohio — The Eastern volleyball team survived an early scare in Monday evening’s TVC Hocking match at Federal Hocking High School.

TORNADO, W.Va. — The Wahama White Falcons varsity golf team ended a somewhat disappointing season Monday at the regional tournament held at the Big Bend Golf Course in Tornado, W.Va. Five teams competed for the two available spots to the State Tournament next week to be held in Wheeling, W.Va. Charleston Catholic won the first of the available spots shooting an excellent score of 232 in the play four, count three format. Man High School claimed the second spot with a score of 242. Buffalo was third posting a total of 249. The White Falcons score of 254 gave them fourth place. Huntington St. Joe posted a total of 305 for the 18 hole tournament. Although the White Falcons as a team completed their season, they will be represented at the State Tournament. Sophomore Michael MacKnight turned in one of his better scores of the year with an 81. This qualified him as one of the two individuals that were invited to the state tournament from non-qualifying teams. MacKnight will leave for Wheeling early on Monday for a practice round and then play 18 holes Tuesday and Wednesday in the tournament proper. Senior team captain Kevin Back played his last round for the White Falcons. His score of 84 was just three strokes short of a trip to Wheeling. Dakota Sisk contributed an 89 for Wahama’s third best score. Morgan Nottingham added a score of 92. The White Falcons had a solid season. They had an overall record of 38-24 with a third place finish in the TVC Hocking Division. The individuals returning next year have considerable potential and should be in the competition for a State Tournament berth. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
