Family of missing man continues search By Beth Sergent bsergent@heartlandpublications.com Submitted photo POINT PLEASANT — “Someone has to know something,” said Shela Crawford, mother of Jeff Crawford who has been missing since June 16. Jeff, along with wife Ashley (Baird) Crawford and her cousin Tonda Nelson, went missing at the same time though the bodies of Ashley and Tonda were later found in July. Still, there’s been no sign of Jeff. Speaking to the Point Pleasant Register this weekend, Jeff’s mother Shela Crawford of Gallipolis Ferry said no one in the family has heard from her son, and there’s been no bank activity or cell phone activity since he went missing in June. Shela said she’s accepted the grim reality that her son is likely dead. She and her family also firmly believe Jeff had nothing to do with the murders of Ashley and Tonda, despite having been named a person of interest in the case. His family believe Jeff was a victim along with the two women and speculate if the trio were killed together, Jeff, who they say was protective of women, would’ve been the first one to fight back — for this reason, one of Jeff’s aunts believe he was likely killed first. However, at this time, there’s no evidence of this or evidence Jeff is deceased. Shela said she never bought the story of Jeff wanting to leave the area to start a new life and telling no one he left. She pointed out Jeff and Ashley’s trailer burned to the ground the day the couple, along with Nelson, went missing, a trailer with “all that mattered most to them inside,” Shela said. She explained it doesn’t make sense that Jeff, or anyone, would leave behind all their possessions and then disappear. It also doesn’t make sense to her that a son, whom she said would tell her everything, didn’t even call to tell her his home had burned to the ground. “You don’t just fall off the face of the earth,” Shela said about the By Brian J.

Their prayers have been that some sort of special treatment for her condition would become available. Just recently that has happened, and treatment is being offered at the University of Florida in Jacksonville, Fla. “This proton therapy is the miracle that we all have been praying for,” said Mrs. Reed. She went on to explain that it will require Jenna and her mother, Terri, to stay in Florida seven to nine weeks for the treatment program. To help them with their living expenses while there, a 5K walk/ run has been organized and will take place on Oct. 15 in Logan. “So many friends and family here in Meigs County and surrounding area have been faithfully praying for Jenna and we just want them to know what’s going on and invite them to share in our joy and maybe participate in the 5K run/walk sponsored by The Hope Blooms Foundation, ( www.hopeblooms.net) Shortly after Jenna’s inoperable brain tumor, an astrocytoma, was diagnosed she had surgery in order to do a biopsy. A few weeks later she began chemotherapy with the goal being to shrink the tumor. There was no immediate change. Then a few months later, the MRIs began to show some shrinkage. By October 2007 it had shrunk to 16mm. But the doctors have warned that the tumor will start growing eventually. The proton therapy may be an answer to that problem. “God works miracles,” said Mrs. Reed, “and our prayer is for one of his miracles.” POMEROY — The Athens-Meigs Educational Service Center will lead an informal study to determine if local governments can combine buying power to save costs. The first item in the study agenda is to determine if local governmenst can save fuel costs by buying cooperatively. New state legislation allows educational service centers to collaborate with local governments in ways they could not before, according to Superintendent Rick Edwards, and that could allow the two-county service center to partner with other governmental agencies in an attempt to save money for public agencies and the taxpayers. Edwards has counted 28 local governments and agencies that could participate in a joint-purchasing program or other initiatives for saving operating costs in Meigs County, alone. Specifically, Senate Bill 153 removes barriers which have prevented local governments from working together, in light of proposed costs to state subsidies to local governments. It also makes changes in construction law and prevailing wage rules to save local governments money on building projects.

Grants like these, according to Diana Coates, RSVP director, will help RSVP meet some of the financial challenges due to the recent 20 percent cut in federal funding. “All RSVPs across the country are in jeopardy of losing the whole program,” said Coates, “and are having to depend more on grants like the one given by American Electric Power. She said the federal grant amount received which normally provides for 12 months of RSVP programming, now must be stretched out to 15 months. Local action being taken to handle the reduction in funding currently being taken is cutting staff hours. The staff is also being asked to “review the impact certain volunteer stations make in the community,” as criteria for the federal funding. Coates explained that for funding it means volunteers must be providing “something measurable” in the way of community service. She said the number of hours and the number of stations served are less important. It’s what the volunteers are doing to make an impact which matters. “It’s not that ‘somebody cared enough’ to spend hours making something useful for someone less fortunate, but that what they did created a measurable impact on the community.” Statistics from last year show that there were 163 active volunteers who contributed 21,478 hours to various activities and programs in the community. They worked in a variety of places – like the Health Department, the Humane Society store, the Library, at Head Start, the Mulberry Community Center. They delivered meals to shut-ins, made quilts, did a variety of sewing projects, and went into the schools to teach history. Coates is uncertain about how the criteria of “something measurable” is determined in several of those RSVP programs.

COLUMBUS —Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine today announced that a cooperative investigation by the Ohio Attorney General’s Office and the Broward County Sheriff’s Office in Broward County, Florida, has resulted in Noel A. Colqhoun of Lauderhill, Florida, being charged with grand theft — a felony of the third degree — as a result of his alleged involvement in a “grandparent scam” that victimized an elderly Cuyahoga County woman. Elderly individuals in the Ohio Valley area have been targeted in this type of scam, as well. “The criminals behind these scams take advantage of grandparents who believe they’re helping their grandchildren,” said Attorney General Mike DeWine. “We’re sending a message to scammers that if you target older Ohioans, we will do everything we can to track you down and bring you to justice, wherever you are.” In this case, on July 14, 2011, a grandmother from Lyndhurst, Ohio, received a phone call from a person claiming to be her grandson. The caller told her that he’d been in a car accident and urgently needed money. She wired $5,000 to Lauderhill, Florida. The next day, the scammer called again and said he needed another $5,000. By the time she realized that her grandson was okay, she’d lost $10,000 to the scam.

The Davis-Besse nuclear power along Lake Erie is replacing a reactor that had cracks. Akron-based FirstEnergy Corp. isn’t saying how long the plant just outside Toledo will be shut down for the replacement work. The company says the new head features control rod nozzles made of material less likely to crack. The plant was shut down for four months last year to repair cracks that regulators say were discovered before they could cause damage. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission says it will oversee the replacement work closely to make sure everything goes smoothly. *** Officials concerned about drilling in Ohio forest ATHENS, Ohio (AP) — Concern over a natural gas drilling technique has southeast Ohio officials opposing a plan to auction leases for gas and oil development in the state’s only national forest. criminal damage; and trespass. If a firearm was used to injure or kill the pet, various state and local laws may provide a basis for additional charges. Q: If I don’t want to bring criminal charges, is there anything else I can do? A: Yes. You can bring a civil legal action against the person who injured your dog, but you should know that current Ohio law considers dogs and other companion animals to be “chattel” or personal property. For this reason, you would be legally entitled to only the “replacement value” of your pet. In other words, if your dog is a mixed breed that came from the pound, you would only be entitled to the cost of purchasing a similar dog from a similar facility.

The Columbus Dispatch reports the problem was traced to steel joists that had become magnetized. Lower courts agreed with builder Centex Homes that the problem was not covered under the limited warranty that the homeowners signed off on, so their lawsuit was ages, such as intentional and/or negligent infliction of emotional distress or trespass, if the person entered your property for the purpose of injuring your dog, and other such cases are now pending. Such cases do not, however, represent the majority. Q: Is Ohio planning to increase the penalties for harming a pet? A: On June 21, 2011, the Ohio House of Representatives passed House Bill 25, which would make animal cruelty charges a first-degree misdemeanor. Currently, animal cruelty is considered a second degree misdemeanor. The new law would allow judges to include pets on domestic violence protection orders and order children who abuse pets to get psychiatric evaluations. The bill would also give courts more power to protect dismissed before it ever went to trial. The state’s highest court is considering an appeal from the Canal Winchester homeowners. Their attorney told the justices during Tuesday’s oral arguments that builders have a responsibility to construct homes in a “workmanlike manner.” The lawyer for Centex says home buyers need to read what they’re signing. He also called the two homes’ magnetic problem unique. *** 48 county workers in Ohio must choose between jobs CLEVELAND (AP) — Nearly 50 county government employees in Cleveland have been told to quit their outside political positions or they’ll be fired.

They’re only a year apart, and they’ve shared a bedroom their entire lives. We’re in the process of moving to a new, bigger house, and now we’ll actually have a separate bedroom for each of our girls. The problem is, we don’t think they want to be split up. Should my two elementary-school-age kids still be sharing a room? Will it hurt their feelings if we try to separate them? — N.S. Dear N.S.: The first thing you should do is get a good idea of how each of your daughters feels about sharing a room. Talk to them independently about how they feel about sharing their room and whether they want to continue sharing when they move and have the chance to gain space for themselves. It could be the case that one of your daughters is less excited about the prospect of sharing a room but is going along with it to please her sister. Especially as they get older, kids value their privacy, so you should attempt to honor those wishes. Secondly, you should look at the situation as parents and determine whether your daughters are actually good roommates. When living in the same room out of necessity, it can be easy to overlook some of the issues that develop — maybe they have different sleeping schedules, energy levels or vastly different temperaments that make it harder for them to feel completely comfortable with sharing a room. However, sharing a room also can build their sibling relationship and teach them valuable lessons about friendship and compromise, as well as make them feel safer and more secure at home. No matter what you decide now, you always can leave open the option for a change-up at any time, so that your girls know they have the freedom to have their own room if they want it.

A Hamilton County prosecutor’s spokeswoman says 36-year-old Kenyatta Erkins was sentenced Wednesday in Cincinnati. Erkins was arrested with another man and a woman last October in an undercover operation. Prosecutors say they followed riverboat casino patrons back to Ohio from neighboring Indiana and robbed them at gunpoint. There were at least a dozen robberies over several months. Erkins was found guilty of nearly a dozen charges including aggravated robbery, conspiracy to robbery, robbery and felonious assault. A message was left for his attorney.

File a police report as soon as possible, and follow up with your county’s prosecutor. Inform the prosecutor that you wish to pursue criminal charges against the person(s) responsible for injuring your pet. Under current Ohio law, your case likely will be heard in your local municipal court, but the court that handles such a case may vary.

The Cashew is a tree widely grown in tropical climates for its cashew nuts and cashew apples. It is an evergreen, growing to 32 feet tall with a short, often irregularly shaped trunk. The true fruit of the cashew tree is a kidney or boxing glove shaped drupe that grows at the end of the cashew apple. The nut oil is used topically an an antifungal and for healing cracked hedels.

My two high-school-age sons can’t imagine leaving their school, especially not to start at a completely new place in the middle of the year. I sympathize with them, but I can’t think of how to keep them at their old school. How can I make it easier for them to make this transition? — F.R. Dear F.R.: Conventional wisdom says that moving can be very hard on highschool-age children, as they look to their peer and friend groups for stability and acceptance more than to their family (in contrast with younger children, who rely more heavily on their family for selfconfidence and understanding). However, sometimes moves are inevitable, and it’s good to try to soften the blow for your kids. Additionally, all kids are different, and what might help one adjust might not help another. For this reason, you should treat your sons individually and talk to each of them about what’s worrying him about moving and starting at a new school. Check out the school that you’re planning to send your sons to, especially to evaluate whether there are significant differences in the size, class structure or requirements for graduation. Social factors certainly can be the hardest thing for teenagers to cope with, but this can be exacerbated by big changes to their academic experience. While you can’t change the way the new school operates, you can help your kids prepare for these changes. Also look into any after-school or extracurricular activities that your sons do now — whether it’s theater or basketball, you should make sure that they know these things are available where you’re going. With the proper preparation, a new school can be an opportunity for learning and growing.

Entering the new millennium, albums were enjoying blockbuster sales of several million units for its superstar artists, and profits were booming. Yet the threat of Napster and other forms of illegal downloading threatened to eviscerate those profits as many music fans were starting to get used to the idea that music, and loads of it, could be free. Apple’s iTunes entered into that landscape with a concept that wasn’t exactly new: a system where you could pay for songs online. Yet iTunes, with its simple interface, its simple concept — 99 cents per song — and revolutionary MP3 device, the iPod, made it the golden standard. The entry of Apple and its leader, Steve Jobs, who died Wednesday, into the music world was more than a success — it was a phenomenon. Today, iTunes is the largest music retailer, has redefined the listening experience and has largely become the way that music is consumed. What’s less clear is how much the music industry — which is continuing to decline — has benefited. Even today, consensus is mixed. “It really did remind an entire industry, and gave a cue to even a culture beyond the industry that if you provided music in a convenient, direct way and responded to the consumers’ interest and demands, they would in fact buy it, especially if it was priced appropriately,” said James Diener, CEO and President of A&M/Octone Records. “It forced change in a positive way. People who are critical of what iTunes may have done perhaps have short memories and don’t realize that the alternative at the time was that an enormous amount of music was leaking onto the Internet and being consumed for free,” Diener added. “The alternative was to inspire people to buy music, and to go to a digital retail site. … That was a remarkable step forward.” Apple introduced iTunes in 2001, a few months before it would release the now-ubiquitous iPod (which begat the iPod Nano, the iPhone, the iPad). At the time, it was not a music store but a rip-and-burn library service only available for Mac users. It initially was viewed with great skepticism by record companies for its ability to make digital copies of music — something the industry thought would lead to piracy. The industry had a lot to protect. It was enjoying booming sales at the turn of the last century, fueled by the success of teen sensations like Britney Spears, the Backstreet Boys and ‘N Sync. But it was just starting to feel the effects of the illegal downloading era: The top-selling album of that year, Linkin Park’s “Hybrid Theory,” sold 4.8 million, down from 2000’s top-seller, ‘N Sync’s “No Strings Attached,” which sold almost 8 million a year before. “That was at the same time we were confronting Napster, we were confronting the beginnings of the global piracy epidemic that was to come,” said Jim Donio, president of the National Association of Recording Merchandisers, or NARM. “At the same moment of time, we were also experiencing the biggest weekly sales of all time. It was a very odd confluence of events, because you had the harbinger of immense challenges, but at the same time, reaping the rewards of incredible record breaking physical sales. … It was heated, it was tense.” When Apple’s iTunes became a full-service online music store in 2003, it offered more than 200,000 songs that could be loaded on your iPod and fully portable, all for 99 cents a download, no matter who the artist was (in recent years, it has allowed for more variation, with some singles now costing $1.29 per song). Bill Werde, editorial director at Billboard, said that while other services were available at the time, the genius of Jobs was making iTunes the ultimate consumer destination. “He created the retail experience that most people know now. He focused on the fan, he focused on the user experience, he didn’t focus on rights and complicated pricing schemes. He focused just on what would be simple and what would be easy for a music fan to do, and what would be good for a music fan to experience,” Werde said. “You look around today, we sell tens of millions of digital tracks each year,” he continued. “Given that Apple has an 80 percent, 70 percent market share in that digital space when it comes to downloads, you really see how important Apple has become in selling music to music fans.” Apple set the pricing, to the chagrin of the music industry, promoting parity for singles and albums. “If you walked into a physical record store prior to iTunes … there was more confusion about what the value of what certain records were worth. You’d see one record that was a brand new release marked at $17.98, and then another one right next to it for $13.98, so there was a lot of clarity for iTunes,” Diener said. “I think what iTunes did, which was wise on their part and difficult necessarily for the industry to appreciate at first, was they just standardized all the pricing. … That was growing pains for the industry because they were used to having more control of the pricing of their products.” Diener believes that price standardization was one of the key reasons for iTunes’ success.

No longer did rabid fans need to form a line in front of a music store to get their favorite album, then play it once they got home; They could order it at home and listen instantaneously. They also didn’t have the buy the whole album: iTunes ushered in the era of the singles artists. Cherry-picking songs from albums has become the norm, and some artists have complained that iTunes led to the diminishment of the album. “I don’t disagree with some of that criticism,” Diener said. “By unbundling the album and allowing consumers to buy songs one at a time, it changed the whole nature of consumer thinking of what is the basic unit of music — is it an album or is it a single?” But Werde says Napster and other forms of illegal downloading already had started that process in motion. “I don’t think that iTunes unbundled the album, but I think Apple sort of benefited from this eco-system that certainly supported the single,” he said. “Really, it’s the music fan that unbundled the album, by all of these fans clearly responding to this amazing new way to experience their music. I mean, the shuffle button? I think the shuffle button may have single-handedly changed the musical horizon of 50 percent of the world.” In 2010, iTunes marked the sale of its 10 billionth song. Even longtime stalwarts have come to embrace iTunes: The Beatles’ catalog finally became available late last year. Paul McCartney considered Jobs a friend and called him “a great creative artist” and a music lover. Yet for all of iTunes’ success, the music industry is still floundering. While sales are up slightly this year, the industry has been on a dramatic decline for the past decade, as labels have been shuttered and thousands of jobs lost as it continues to contract. While digital downloads continue to explode, overall album sales have dropped by at least half. “Steve Jobs leaves behind a little bit of a complex legacy,” Werde said. “He helped create what we think of today as the legal digital music market, which is a substantial music market around the world. But at the same time, the music business in the retail space is probably worth about half of what it was worth ten years ago, so I don’t know that anyone saved the music business,” he said. “No one has yet solved the problem that music can still be free.” By Jocelyn Noveck AP National Writer NEW YORK (AP) — As other protesters chanted vigorously around her, Nancy Pi-Sunyer stood off to the side at the Occupy Wall Street rally, clutching her sign, looking a little like a new teacher on the first day of school. In a way, she was: At 66, this retired teacher was joining a protest for the first time in her life. “I was too young for the civil rights movement,” Pi-Sunyer said earlier this week as she joined thousands of protesters marching in lower Manhattan. “And during the Vietnam War, I was too serious a student. Now, I just want to stand up and have my voice be heard.” As the protests have expanded and gained support from new sources, what began three weeks ago as a group of mostly young people camping out on the streets has morphed into something different: an umbrella movement for people of varying ages, life situations and grievances, some of them first-time protesters. There are a few common denominators among the protesters: their position on the left of the political spectrum, and the view that the majority in America — the “99 percent,” in their words — isn’t getting a fair shake. Beyond that, though, there’s a diversity of age, gender and race — in part due to the recent injection of labor union support, and fueled by social networks — that is striking to some who study social protests. “Most people think this is a bunch of idealistic young kids,” said Heather Gautney, a sociology professor at Fordham University and an analyst of social protests. “But the wider movement is remarkably more diverse than it’s been portrayed. I’ve seen a lot of first-time protesters, nurses, librarians. At one protest, the younger element seemed actually to be in the minority.” Pi-Sunyer, who lives in Montclair, N.J., was drawn into the fray on Wednesday the same way many were — via social networks. She saw a post from a friend on Facebook and realized it was time to join. “I just decided to get off the couch and be in control,” she said, holding a hand-lettered sign that read: “Wise OWLS Seek Economic Justice 4 All.” (OWLS was a play on the initials for Occupy Wall Street — with an “l” for little people.) “I was oblivious before. I can’t be oblivious now.” Nearby, a speaker in lower Manhattan’s Foley Square yelled into a microphone: “I’m tired of sticking my hand in my pocket, and only getting my leg!” The so-called “Granny Brigade” pulled out guitars and played a song. The crowd milled, bearing an 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.

Both the front and back of her shirt were covered in scrawled slogans. “I came here from MICHIGAN because the top 20 percent are waging class warfare against the rest of the U.S.,” it read in part. Walters, 58, also a former teacher, had driven all the way from Michigan with her husband, Rich. Her biggest gripe: credit card swipe fees, which she said were killing smaller businesses. She also was concerned about unemployment in her home state. “I’m very angry at how poverty is degrading our people,” she said. As she spoke, a much younger protester interrupted her to hand her a leaflet on health care reform. The couple, who’d been following the protests all week, getting updates via Facebook and Twitter (and posting their own video on YouTube), complained that protesters had been described by others as unruly mobs or young troublemakers. Did she look like a young troublemaker, Walters asked? (At least there was a silver lining, she quipped: It was flattering to be described as young.) Both Cherie and Rich Walters had protested during the Vietnam War, as students at Central Michigan University. Compared with those anti-war protests, she said, this one was way more diverse — “different ages, colors, even languages,” she said. Legal Aid lawyer Steve Wasserman, 63, who joined Wednesday’s march with his union and remembered his Vietnam protesting days, agreed. “The old left was very male-dominated,” he said. Such diversity is what organizers were hoping for, said Patrick Bruner, spokesman for Occupy Wall Street. Since launching the protests in midSeptember with a group of mostly young activists, “we’ve made a concerted effort to diversify our group,” he said, with an outreach committee and caucus groups for people of color, for example, or for women. “We’ve gradually seen our message resonate with different groups of people.” Organizers also have been encouraging people to tell their stories in a virtual protest on tumblr, the social network, spotlighting people of different backgrounds, each tale of economic hardship ending with: “I am the 99 percent.” Experts say the role of social networks in building and organizing these protests, like in the recent revolt in Egypt, can’t be overstated. “I’ve been studying and attending protests for a decade, and Facebook is the most effective organizing tool I have ever encountered,” said Michael Heaney, a professor at the University of Michigan. What the movement doesn’t have right now, these experts note, are the same concrete goals of some past social movements — a lack that many demonstrators seem to be embracing, at least for the moment. “We’re a broad range — everyone’s affected in a different way,” said John Crisano, 27, who’d answered a call for college students to attend Wednesday’s protest. “But we’re all here because we’re upset at the way the government is being run.” Karen Livecchia, 49, agreed. “For now, it’s a lot like the Internet — leaderless, spaceless,” she said as she collected signatures at the march, spurred to action by an email from the liberal group MoveOn.org. “It’s hard to tell what it will lead to. But I’m not concerned that we don’t have specific demands — that will come.” Livecchia, a Harvard grad with a master’s from New York University, was laid off 21 months ago from her publishing job, and for her, too, this was the first protest of her life. Her anger was palpable. “I did everything I was supposed to do,” she said. “I have two fancy degrees. I’m from a union home, raised to believe in the system. But you know what? The system doesn’t work! It’s too polluted with corporate money.” “If it’s like this for me,” she added, “how about the waiters, and the truck drivers? What led Abdullah Pollard to the protests, just months after he became a U.S. citizen, was no less than the dashing of his American dream. Pollard, 58, came to the United States from Trinidad in 1996, and became a citizen in June. “I didn’t feel empowered as an immigrant,” he said at Wednesday’s march, where he volunteered as a marshal. “Now I am a citizen, and I want to stand up for the downtrodden.” A father of three adult kids, Pollard was laid off in April from his job in telecommunications. He’s looking for work again but said it’s hard at his age. He feels let down by a country where, he said, “both political parties march to the same drummer — the powerful corporations.” “You leave your own country and you expect things to be better in America, a step or two up from what you left back home,” he said. “And then there’s this rude awakening. “America is just not what it used to be.” The Daily Sentinel Ohio Valley Publishing Co. 111 Court Street Pomeroy, Ohio Phone (740) 992-2156 Fax (740) 992-2157 www.mydailysentinel.com Sammy M.

Gordon’s promising day ends with blown engine KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — Jeff Gordon had hoped for a strong finish at Kansas Speedway to put him among the contenders in the Chase for the Sprint Cup. Instead, he had to settle for providing the fans with a green-white-checkered finish — while Gordon’s No. 24 Chevrolet sat behind the wall with a blown engine. Gordon ran in the top five for much of the day but went out with three laps to go, finishing 34th and dropping one spot to 10th in the Chase standings, 47 points behind leader Jimmie Johnson. After dropping out of the top 10 in a late restart shuffle, Gordon had reconciled himself to finishing in the mid-teens — and then things got worse. “Right after that, we started getting smoke,” he said. “We thought it was tire smoke, but it wasn’t. It was under the hood, and obviously it ended our day.” Team owner Rick Hendrick could tell right away that Gordon was in trouble. “The oil temperature pegged the gauge,” he said. “There’s nothing you can do at that point. I feel for those guys. They had some really good momentum, but parts are going to break.” ___ G O O D B Y E , GROOVES: With two wins and a third-place finish this year at Kansas Speedway, Brad Keselowski was just getting comfortable on the track’s well-worn surface. And now it’s all going away — because it has to. The surface, in use since the track opened in 2001, is scheduled for a multimillion-dollar reconfiguration in the offseason because of cumulative damage from the harsh Midwestern freeze-thaw cycle. “This track in particular has become very racy,” Keselowski said after finishing third in Sunday’s Sprint Cup race. “There’s as much side by side racing as you’re going to see in this type of racecar, here at Kansas. Hopefully when they do go through that process, they’ll be able to get the track to mature quickly and get back to those multiple grooves.” Track President Pat Warren said that while he understood racers’ and fans’ concerns, the reconfiguration — which will include variable banking on the 1.5mile tri-oval — can’t wait. “The notion that you would spend your dollars resurfacing, and risking the quality of the racing, if you didn’t have to is crazy,” Warren said. The track has already begun to fail in spots, Warren said, pointing to an asphalt patch high in the third turn. “A year ago, about a month before our Cup race, our guy who walks the track every day, one day he’s seeing a few things but everything’s the way it’s supposed to be,” he said. “The next day, he goes out and the bottom three lanes have dropped 4 inches down. There’s a gap the size of my fist, all the way laterally along that thing. “If that happens on the Saturday night of a Cup weekend, that’s a really bad day — and we can’t take that chance.” ___ NARROWING THE FIELD TO FOUR: The NASCAR Foundation announced the four finalists for its first Betty Jane France Humanitarian Award on Sunday, with the candidates ranging in age from late teens to early 80s. The winner will receive $100,000 for his or her chosen charity. The youngest finalist is 17-year-old Jake Bernstein of St. Louis, who co-founded the website stlouisvol- unteen.org and averages 100 volunteer hours per month for Autism Speaks, which will receive the prize money if he wins. His work was cited earlier this year in a speech by President Obama. Robert Weaver, 83, of Talladega, Ala., is the oldest of the final four. Weaver is a longtime volunteer for organizations which serve people with visual or hearing disabilities, and for more than 50 years has delivered ice cream to deaf students. If he wins, he will donate the $100,000 to the Alabama Institute for the Deaf and Blind Foundation. The other finalists are Brenda Doner, 52, of Columbus, Ohio, and Patty Aber, 44, of Middletown, N.J. Aber, who also volunteers for the NASCAR Foundation and driver Kasey Kahne’s foundation, has donated more than 1,000 hours in the past two years to her chosen charity, the Bridge of Books Foundation. The organization provides books for underprivileged children in New Jersey. Doner’s chosen charity is PBJ Connections, which uses equestrian activities to help children with emotional and behavioral issues. In addition to her longtime work with that organization, Doner also volunteers extensively with several current and retired drivers’ foundations. ___ SPARK PLUGS: Billionaire Warren Buffett watched the race from atop Kyle Busch’s pit road stand. … A.J. Allmendinger was penalized twice Sunday. He had to start from the back after missing driver introductions and had to make a pass-through after coming too fast into pit road in the 131st lap. Oklahoma makes case to reclaim the Number one spot Associated Press No. 3 Oklahoma made a case to reclaim that top ranking with a Red River Rivalry rout. Then No. 1 LSU showed that it was, indeed, a worthy No. 1. The Sooners smoked No. 11 Texas 55-17, ripping up their heated Big 12 rivals by Landry Jones and a defense that scored three touchdowns. Texas came to the State Fair in Dallas undefeated but not yet tested by a ranked team. The Longhorns, with their inexperienced quarterback combination of David Ash and Case McCoy, couldn’t up with Jones and his talented receivers. All-American Ryan Broyles had 9 catches for 122 yards. In Baton Rouge, La., LSU had little trouble with a Florida offense playing with a freshman quarterback who had never taken a snap in a college game. Jacoby Brissett, playing because both John Brantley and Jeff Driskel were hurt, couldn’t muster any offense against the Tigers. It was the second straight week Florida was pounded by an SEC West heavweight. The Gators were trounced by Alabama 38-10 last week. LSU took over as the No. 1 team in the country two weeks ago, jumping past preseason No. 1 Oklahoma. No. 2 Alabama, which beat Vanderbilt 34-0, jumped the Sooners last week, leaving Oklahoma No. 3. The Sooners might win back some of that support when the AP poll comes out Sunday. No. 1 LSU 41, No. 17 Florida 11 BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Spencer Ware rushed for 109 yards and two scores and each of LSU’s quarterbacks passed for touchdowns. Jarrett Lee gave the Tigers (60, 3-0 SEC) the lead for good on their second offensive play, hitting Rueben Randle deep over the middle for a 46-yard touchdown. Jordan Jefferson used a jump pass to Mitch Joseph for another score. LSU’s fast, fierce defense was too much for Florida (4-2, 2-2), which started freshman Jacoby Brissett at quarterback because of injuries to senior John Brantley and freshman Jeff Driskel. Brissett was intercepted twice on deep throws, once each by safety Brandon Taylor and star cornerback Tyrann Mathieu. No. 2 Alabama 34, Vanderbilt 0 TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — AJ McCarron passed for careerhighs of 237 yards and four touchdowns for Alabama. Trent Richardson rushed for 107 yards and a touchdown in his fifth straight 100-yard effort for the Crimson Tide (6-0, 3-0 South- eastern Conference). The Commodores (3-2, 1-2) trailed by only seven points until the final minute of the opening half, then Alabama took over with four straight touchdown drives. McCarron was 23 of 30 passing and didn’t add to Vandy’s national-best 14 interceptions before sitting out most of the fourth quarter. He hit DeAndrew White for touchdowns of 5 and 39 yards, the first scores of the receiver’s career. Vanderbilt quarterback Jordan Rodgers replaced starter Larry Smith in the first half and played the rest of the way. Smith had a lower leg injury. No. 3 Oklahoma 55, No. 11 Texas 17 DALLAS (AP) — Landry Jones threw for 367 yards a three touchdowns, Dominique Whaley ran 64 yards for another touchdown and the Oklahoma defense scored three more touchdowns. Having slipped from first to second to third over successive weeks, Oklahoma (5-0, 2-0 Big 12) stomped its top rival almost as easily as it did lowly Ball State the previous week. The Sooners wound up with their most lopsided win in this series since 2003, when they won by a series-record 52 points. The Longhorns (4-1, 1-1) couldn’t get anything going on offense. Their only touchdowns came on a kickoff return late in the first half, and a pass in the final minutes when they were down by 45. No. 7 Stanford 48, Colorado 7 STANFORD, Calif. (AP) — Andrew Luck threw for a season-high 370 yards and three touchdowns, and Stanford stayed perfect. With former Stanford standouts Tiger Woods and John Elway joining the crush of NFL scouts on the sidelines, Luck completed 26 of 33 passes with a rare interception to extend the nation’s longest winning streak to 13 games. Max Bergen blocked a field goal and returned it for a score and Ryan Hewitt caught two touchdown passes to help the Cardinal (5-0, 3-0) cruise past another opponent. Tyler Hansen passed for 202 yards with one touchdown and one interception in the third straight loss for the Buffaloes (1-5, 0-2). No. 8 Clemson 36, Boston College 14 CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) — Tajh Boyd threw for a touchdown and ran for another before leaving with a hip injury. The severity of Boyd’s injury was unknown. He came in leading the Atlantic Coast Conference in total offense and has been the catalyst for the Tigers’ first 6-0 start in 11 years. Clemson (3-0 ACC) got five field goals from Chandler Catanzaro and 117 yards and a touch- down from tailback Andre Ellington to put away Boston College (1-5, 0-3). The Eagles played without ACC preseason player of the year Montel Harris, who aggravated a knee injury in last week’s loss to Wake Forest. No. 6 Oklahoma State 70, Kansas 28 STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) — Brandon Weeden threw for 288 yards and five touchdowns playing less than a half and Oklahoma State had its highest scoring game since 1970. Jamie Blatnick recovered a fumble and leaped to tip an interception to himself for two of the Cowboys’ four first-half takeaways, and Oklahoma State (5-0, 2-0 Big 12) scored touchdowns on all eight of its possessions before halftime against the nation’s worst defense. Kansas (2-3, 0-2) came in allowing a Bowl Subdivision-worst 44.3 points per game, and Oklahoma State had already surpassed that total with 4 minutes left in the second quarter on Weeden’s second TD pass to All-American receiver Justin Blackmon. No. 10 Arkansas 38, Auburn 14 FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Tyler Wilson threw for 262 yards, completing 19 straight passes at one point for Arkansas. Wilson, who set a school record with 510 passing yards in a win over Texas A&M last week, ended the first half against the Tigers by completing 18 straight passes. That included a 5-yard touchdown pass to Jarius Wright in the second quarter that gave the Razorbacks (5-1, 1-1 Southeastern Conference) their first lead at 21-14. Wilson extended his streak to 19 in the third quarter before an incompletion ended the streak, which is the third longest in SEC history. Joe Adams also had a 92-yard touchdown run on Arkansas’ first play of the second half to push the lead to 28-14. Michael Dyer led Auburn (4-2, 2-1) with 112 rushing yards, including a 55-yard scoring scamper in the first quarter. No. 13 Georgia Tech 21, Maryland 16 ATLANTA (AP) — Tevin Washington ran for 120 yards and two touchdowns and Georgia Tech’s least impressive offensive showing of the season was enough. Georgia Tech led 21-3 before holding off the Terrapins’ fourthquarter comeback. Georgia Tech (6-0 overall, 3-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) matched its wins total from 2010, when it finished 6-7. The Yellow Jackets averaged almost 52 points in their first five wins and began the day ranked first in the nation in rushing and second in scoring. Quarterback C.J. Brown, who replaced starter Danny O’Brien, had a 77-yard touchdown run early in the quarter for Maryland (23, 1-1). Davin Meggett, who had 86 yards rushing, scored from the 1 with 7:33 remaining to cut the lead to 21-16. No. 16 West Virginia 43, Connecticut 16 MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — Geno Smith threw for 450 yards and four touchdowns and West Virginia navigated through another slow start to win its Big East opener. West Virginia (5-1, 1-0) struggled to a 10-9 halftime lead before erupting for 23 points in a 7:35 span of the third quarter to take control. Connecticut (2-4, 0-1) was picked apart on defense for the second straight week and its offense was limited to 275 total yards. UConn quarterback Johnny McEntee was chased around the field all game. His third-quarter fumble led to a touchdown that gave West Virginia the momentum for good. No. 18 South Carolina 54, Kentucky 3 COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — New starting quarterback Connor Shaw threw for 311 yards and four touchdowns for South Carolina. Shaw, a sophomore who took over as starter this week from fifth-year senior Stephen Garcia, completed 26 of 39 passes and had no interceptions. The Gamecocks (5-1, 3-1 Southeastern Conference) gained 639 yards in their biggest win in an SEC game since joining the league in 1992. The Wildcats (2-4, 0-3) offense gained just 96 yards, and their quarterbacks threw four interceptions and just four completions. No. 19 Illinois 41, Indiana 20 BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — Nathan Scheelhaase and A.J. Jenkins hooked up on two long TD passes to lead the Illini. Illinois (6-0, 2-0 Big Ten) is off to its best start since the 1951 team was 7-0. Indiana (1-5, 0-2) lost its third in a row, still has not beaten a Football Bowl Subdivision team this season and has lost 13 consecutive games against Top 25 teams since a 31-28 victory over then No. 13 Iowa on Oct. 14, 2006. Sparked by Shane Wynn’s 99yard kickoff return for a touchdown, the Hoosiers took a 10-0 lead early. But Illinois came back with a 77-yard scoring pass to Jenkins, took the lead on Tavon Wilson’s 66-yard fumble return for a TD and made it 27-13 at the half on Scheelhaase’s 67-yard TD pass to Jenkins. No. 20 Kansas State 24, Missouri 17 MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) — Collin Klein ran for three touchdowns and the Wildcats, who nearly blew a big second-half lead, improved to 5-0 for the first time since 2000. Klein finished with 157 yards of total offense and John Hubert added 126 yards on the ground for the Wildcats, who had lost the last five matchups between the Big 12 rivals. James Franklin was 19 of 35 for 214 yards passing for the Tigers (2-3), who came into the game averaging more than 500 yards of total offense. They only managed 326 against the Wildcats, most of that coming on a pair of long touchdown drives in the fourth quarter. No. 21 Virginia Tech 38, Miami 35 BLACKSBURG, Va. (AP) — Logan Thomas ran 19 yards for a touchdown with 56 seconds to play, capping a wild fourth quarter for Virginia Tech. The Hokies (5-1, 1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) rescued their chances of contending in the Coastal Division with the dramatic rally, and may have killed the hopes for Miami (2-3, 0-2). And they did it less than 2 minutes after Lamar Miller scored on a 30-yard burst for the Hurricanes, giving them a 35-31 lead and forcing Thomas and the Hokies to respond. Thomas did, with a big assist from David Wilson, driving the Hokies 77 yards in eight plays, finishing the drive with a draw play on which he went virtually untouched for the score. No. 22 Arizona State 35, Utah 14 SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Brock Osweiler passed for 325 yards and three touchdowns and Arizona State forced five turnovers. Jon Hays threw three interceptions in his first major-college start for the Utes (2-3, 0-3 Pac-12). Osweiler had the third 300yard game of his career to lead the Sun Devils (5-1, 3-0 Pac-12). Utah had taken a 14-10 lead with 10:32 left in the third quarter on Hays’ 2-yard TD pass to tight end Dallin Rogers. Arizona State then scored 18 straight points in less than four minutes to take a 28-14 lead. The Sun Devils turned Utah’s fifth turnover of the game into another seven points, with Osweiler’s 12-yard TD pass to Mike Willie capping a 10-play drive set up by Reggie Dunn’s fumble with 14:12 left to play. Wake Forest 35, No. 23 Florida State 30 WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (AP) — Tanner Price threw three touchdown passes, Josh Harris rushed for 136 yards and Wake Forest beat Florida State. �Tuesday, October 11, 2011 Sports www.mydailysentinel.com The Daily Sentinel • Page 8 Page 8 The Daily Sentinel Local Schedule Tuesday, October 11 Volleyball Waterford at South Gallia, 6 p.m. Eastern at Trimble, 6 p.m. Miller at Southern, 6 p.m. Nelsonville-York at Meigs, 6 p.m. Sissonville at Point Pleasant, 6 p.m. Elk Valley Christian, Teays Valley Christian at Hannan, 6 p.m. Ohio Valley Christian at St. Joe, 6 p.m. Soccer Belpre at Ohio Valley Christian, 5 p.m. Point Pleasant (girls) at Poca, 7 p.m. Wednesday, October 12 Volleyball Trimble at Meigs, 6 p.m. Thursday, October 13 Volleyball Jackson at Gallia Academy, 5:15 p.m. South Gallia at Miller, 6 p.m. Southern at Eastern, 6 p.m. Meigs at Wellston, 6 p.m. Point Pleasant at Poca, 6 p.m. Belpre at Wahama, 6 p.m. Ohio Valley Christian at Hannan, 6 p.m. Soccer Chillicothe at Gallia Academy, 5 p.m. Point Pleasant (boys) at Ironton St. Joe, 5 p.m. Cross Country Gallia Academy at SEOAL League Meet, TBA Friday, October 14 Football Eastern at Canton Central Catholic, 7:30 p.m. Wahama at South Gallia, 7:30 p.m. Waterford at Southern, 7:30 p.m. Meigs at Wellston, 7:30 p.m. Gallia Academy at Portsmouth, 7:30 p.m. Coal Grove at River Valley, 7:30 p.m. Ravenswood at Point Pleasant, 7:30 p.m. Hannan at Betsy Layne (KY), 7:30 p.m. Briefs RVHS Alumni Night CHESHIRE, Ohio — River Valley will be hosting its first annual alumni night on Friday, October 14.

Southern (2-5, 2-3 TVC Hocking) tailed early in the game, before taking a slim halftime lead over winless Miller (0-7, 0-5 TVC Hocking). Neither team scored on its opening possession, with Miller putting the first points on the board.

Raiders fall to Chesapeake, 62-14 By Sarah Hawley shawley@mydailytribune.com CHESHIRE, Ohio — Maybe that’s why they won the league title last year. Visiting Chesapeake forced seven River Valley turnovers and churned out 450 yards of total offense in a 62-14 victory at Raider Field Friday night in a Week 7 Ohio Valley Conference matchup in Gallia County. The host Raiders (1-5, 0-2 OVC) threw six interceptions and also had a fumble lost in the setback, with half of those picks leading to touchdown returns for the Panthers (5-2, 2-0). RVHS came as close as 21-7 with 2:57 left in the first quarter, but the guests ran off 48 consecutive points over the next 30 minutes of play for a sizable 62-7 cushion early in the fourth. River Valley, which dropped its 12th straight OVC decision overall, stopped the bleeding midway through the fourth with a touchdown run — rounding out the 48-point outcome. The Panthers led 22-0 after four minutes in the first period, which included a 60yard TD pass from Austin McMaster to Javon Thompson on the opening play of the game. Thompson’s opening score came just 23 seconds into regulation for a 7-0 Panther lead. Chesapeake increased its lead to 14-0 with 9:13 showing after Dylan Nichols plunged in from a yard out, then Patrick Hintz rumbled 64 yards to paydirt with exactly eight minutes showing for a 22-0 cushion. The Raiders broke into the scoring column with 2:57 left in the opening canto after Trey Noble turned a completion into an 80-yard touchdown run — making it a 22-7 contest. Thompson hauled in a second TD pass from McMaster with 54 seconds left, making it a 29-7 contest. Thompson then picked off a RVHS pass and returned it 40 yards for a whopping 36-7 edge with one second left in the first period. Hintz added his second TD run of the night with 3:09 left in the first half, scoring from 26 yards out for a 42-7 halftime advantage. Tommy Noble started the second half scoring with a 66-yard interception return for a touchdown, making it a 49-7 game with a 9:23 left in the third quarter. Hintz added the final CHS offensive TD with a 90-yard scamper at the 4:03 mark of the third, making it a 56-7 contest headed into the finale. Chesapeake’s final score of the night came with 9:34 left in the fourth, as Caleb Lindsey returned an interception 24 yards to paydirt for a 62-7 contest. Patrick Williams completed the scoring with a 43-yard run with 6:06 left in regulation. The Panthers claimed a 12-3 advantage in first downs and did not commit a turnover in the triumph. CHS was penalized 13 times for 125 yards, while the Raiders were flagged nine times for 50 yards. The Raiders produced 138 yards of total offense in the setback, including just 27 rushing yards on 29 tries to go with 111 passing yards.
