POMEROY — Pomeroy Village Council has awarded contracts for a $1.5 million project of separating sewage and waste water lines in the village with its action being contingent on approval from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA.) Action on the projec t, fully funded with grant money, was taken at a special meeting of Council Thursday night following a review of the submitted bids by Mitch Altier, ME Companies, project manager. Once final approval comes from EPA, which Altier expects in early December, construction can begin. He gave a completion time of nine months. The contract awarded for the first phase, which includes service lines and connections, manholes, and two life stations, in the amount of $928,635 went to TAM Construction, Inc, of Athens. The bid of Doll Layman, Ltd. of Tipp City was accepted for construction of the second phase of the project which consists of improvements to the existing wastewater treatment plant including bar screen, belt press, pumps, valves and electrical work with two generators. At the meeting Council also approved by a five to one vote a resolution to move forward on the $750,000 replacement of the water feed line from the well in Syracuse to Pomeroy which has been described as being heavily corroded, To finance the project the village will have to take out an EPA loan of $358,589 at 2 percent to be repaid over a 30 year period, to be combined with the approved EPA grant of $153,681, and another grant which has been applied for from the ARC in the amount of $250,000. At a prior meeting Altier had warned Council of the possibility of losing the EPA grant if action to proceed was not taken within a month. Council members, Jackie Welker, Jim Sisson, Pete Barnhart, Phil Ohlinger and Victor Young, voted in favor of the resolution while Ruth Spaun voted against it calling for a delay until there can be further consideration on whether the village will be financially able to meet the loan payment requirements. Young said he voted for the resolution because he felt the project was necessary to improve fire fighting capabilities. �Tuesday, November 8, 2011 www.mydailysentinel.com Stocks Tuesday: Sunny, with a high near 72.

(AP) — A proposed anti-bullying policy for West Virginia schools acknowledges that sexual orientation and gender identity are common reasons for harassment. The state Department of Education is taking public comments until 4 p.m. Tuesday about the 75-page student conduct and disciplinary policy that the Board of Education will consider Dec. 14. If approved, changes that specifically acknowledge the targeting of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender students would go into effect July 1, 2012. The civil rights group Fairness West Virginia lauds the new language as “a landmark achievement.” It says the policy effectively provides political and legal cover to teachers and others who might hesitate to help a student. But the Family Policy Council calls it “dangerous and expansive.” It says bullies should be identified by their actions, not their victims. ATLANTA (AP) — Herman Cain’s campaign has issued a swift denial after a woman claimed he reached for her genitals in mid1997. The Republican presidential contender’s campaign said Monday that ‘all allegations of harassment against Mr. Cain are completely false.” The campaign says Cain “has never harassed anyone” and is calling the latest allegations by Sharon Bialek “bogus attacks.” Bialek on Monday accused Cain of behaving inappropriately when she sought to be rehired at the National Restaurant Association, which Cain headed at the time. Bialek called on Cain to “come clean.” She is the fourth woman to allege inappropriate sexual behavior by Cain and the first to go public. Pa. warehouse workers tell paper they endured cold NEW YORK (AP) — A woman says Republican presidential contender Herman Cain reached under her skirt for her genitals and pushed her head toward his crotch in July 1997. Sharon Bialek told reporters Monday in New York that she met with Cain to ask about getting her old job back at the National Restaurant Association when the incident happened in Washington. At the time, Cain was chief of a restaurant trade group. Bialek says that, when she asked Cain what he was doing, Cain said, “You want a job, right?” Bialek appeared with her MENOMONIE, Wis. (AP) — A Canadian man who had just helped a motorist change a tire in western Wisconsin had his good deed quickly repaid when, just minutes later, that same motorist helped to save his life. According to the Wisconsin State Patrol, Victor Giesbrecht, of Winnipeg, was driving Saturday evening on Interstate 94 about 9 miles east of Menomonie when he stopped to help another motorist change a tire. Patrol Sgt. Michael New- ton said that after driving off, Giesbrecht was stricken by a heart attack within a mile or two. His wife, Ann, helped bring their pickup truck to a stop, called 911 and waved her arms for help. At about the same time, the motorists they had just helped pulled up. The Star Tribune reported Monday that one of them, Lisa Meier, of Eau Claire, performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation on him until emergency personnel arrived. A state trooper and two Woman accuses Cain of reaching for genitals Vets donate flags for Ohio students to pledge to COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Veterans groups have bought 1,200 American flags for a major Ohio school district that now requires the Pledge of Allegiance but didn’t have enough flags to pledge to. Columbus teachers had improvised with flags printed on pieces of paper or projected onto classroom walls when the new policy was implemented at the start of the school year. Schools are directed to begin each day with the Pledge of Allegiance, though students may choose not to participate. The Columbus Dispatch reports Monday that the Veterans of Foreign Wars donated 700 flags and the American Legion purchased 500. Together, the two groups spent nearly $10,000. VFW state Commander Gerald Ward says the effort is part of the mission of the veterans organizations to promote patriotism. Occupy protests inspires T-shirts, trademark bids SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — T-shirts, coffee mugs and other merchandise emblazoned with Occupy locations and slogans related to the nationwide movement are now being offered online and amid the camp sites that have sprung up in cities across the country. A number of merchandise vendors, clothing designers and others are making plans to market a wide-variety of goods for a wide-variety of reasons even as some protesters decry the business plans as directly counter to the demonstrations’ goals. The U.S Patent and Trademark Office has received several applications from people and businesses seeking to own the word “Occupy” and the slogan “We are the 99 percent” and the like. Two groups are even competing for the trademark to “Occupy Wall Street.” The winner will control the rights to the products carrying that phrase.

Call 992-6068 COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A federal judge has refused to dismiss a lawsuit alleging torture claims against a former Somali military colonel who lives in Ohio. Defendant Abdi Aden Magan argues the lawsuit was filed in the wrong country and too long after when his accuser says the abuse occurred. Former human rights advocate in Somalia Abukar Hassan Ahmed sued Magan in April 2010, alleging the colonel oversaw his detention and torture there in 1988. U.S. District Court Judge George Smith on Monday ruled Ahmed had standing to sue in the United States and the time limit for filing such a lawsuit hadn’t expired. The judge relied in part on a motion from the U.S. Department of State saying Magan shouldn’t be allowed to claim immunity from the allegations. 60190342 among the past winners.

A medical helicopter took Giesbrecht to Mayo Clinic Health System in Eau Claire. He was in serious condition Monday. Newton said if Giesbrecht hadn’t helped with the tire change, his initial rescuer may have remained stranded for too long to play a life-saving role. “If he had been a few more miles down the road and had his heart attack, it could have been a different outcome,” Newton said. “It’s an interesting turn of fate.” He said Giesbrecht had suffered another heart attack about a year earlier. Newton added that Dunn County having an AED on hand “was the tipping point” in saving Giesbrecht’s life. “Without that defibrillator, I don’t know that the outcome would’ve been the same,” he said. �By The Bend The Daily Sentinel Encouraging son to embrace family multiculturalism By Dr. Joyce Brothers Dear Dr. Brothers: My wife speaks both French and English, and though we missed the opportunity for our son to learn French when he was a child, we want to encourage him to learn it now that he’s in high school and can take courses. He’s stubbornly resisting our encouragement. How can we convince him of the importance of learning to speak another language, especially one so intimately involved in our family’s history? — J.N. Dear J.N.: Connecting with family history certainly is important, but it also can be a pretty tough sell for a teenage boy, who’s likely more interested in girls or sports than in his ancestral heritage. If your son continues to resist your gentle encouragement, you basically have two options. First, you can drop the subject entirely and hope that he’s more receptive at another time or that he’ll come to realize the importance of his family’s culture on his own. If you’re not satisfied with this option, you can try some more persuasive methods of getting him interested in your family, and specifically in the idea of speaking French. To do this, you essentially have to make learning this history and language something that he truly wants to do. Forcing the issue will do no good, and likely will only turn him off to it even more. Instead, introduce your culture and traditions in a fun, novel and exciting way. There are any number of interesting and creative ways to integrate your French heritage into your daily life, and to encourage the French language — from current music or movies to food. The important thing is to focus on things that your son already is passionate about, and sneak a little of your family’s history into the mix to stimulate his interest. One almost surefire way to inspire curiosity? A family trip to France! *** Dear Dr. Brothers: My son’s fiancee’s parents are basically the exact opposite of me and my husband. We’ve met a few times now, and each time we’ve ended up either in strained silence or bickering about things like politics and religion. We don’t think they’re bad people, obviously, but we just Dr. Joyce Brothers have very little in common. Since our kids are getting married, we think we should try a little harder to get along. How can we make it a little easier to stop judging and connect with them? — P.L. Dear P.L.: The fact that you’re able to recognize that these people who are, admittedly, nothing like you and who share few common tastes or sensibilities, are in fact good people and deserving of your respect and attention is the best first step. From here, your next steps are much simpler. Just because someone thinks or acts differently doesn’t mean that there is no common ground between you, and doesn’t mean that you can never have a civil relationship. A good way to initiate this type of relationship can be with a frank conversation. Talk to your son’s soon-to-be in-laws, and admit that you recognize your differences and let them know that you’d like to get to know them and understand them better, and that you hope they feel the same way. Be frank and honest, but try to avoid pushing your opinion on them or interrupting. The most important thing is to begin by listening. Think of some subjects on which you think you might agree — the importance of family, or your kids’ relationship — and use those to connect, initially. Be prepared for some frustration, but in the end, if you can make this relationship work, it will be best not only for your son, but for yourselves as well. By stepping outside your comfort zone and getting to know those who are unlike you, you’ll be expanding your own horizons and becoming better people in the process. (c) 2011 by King Features Syndicate Page 3 Tuesday, November 8, 2011 Tea Party discusses ballot issues POMEROY — State Representative Bill Hayes spoke in support of Issue Two at a recent meeting of the Tea Party at the Mulberry Community Center. “We don’t have enough money,” said Hayes, noting that Ohio and local governments are not generating enough taxpayer money, and local governments are not getting as much from the state. “Senate Bill 5 lets“local governments and, ultimately, the voters decide [what to do],” he said. “It gives them the ability to somewhat deal with the shortage of money.” The bill requires public employees to pay at least 15 percent of their medical insurance and 10 percent of their retirement plan. The bill takes away step increases but does not remove the right to bargain for wages, Hayes said. He explained that currently, if bargaining doesn’t result in agreement between the parties, then arbitrators come in and choose a new wage. The local school must then put a levy on the ballot in an effort to raise needed funds. Under S.B. 5, both sides must publish their last offer. The school board then chooses the wages it wants to pay.” Hayes predicted that, if S.B. 5 gets voted down, taxpayers will have to either “pay more or lose services Look Good, Feel Better — Deb Powell, left, LGFB facilitator, and Courtney Midkiff, Meigs County Health Department and American Cancer Society volunteer, display some of the wigs free to cancer patients. Wig Bank opens at Health Department POMEROY — The Ferman C. Moore Cancer Resource Center is now home to the Meigs County Wig Bank. For women suffering through the side effects of cancer treatment, The American Cancer Society in collaboration with the Meigs County Health Department, now offers free wigs. The next session where women with cancer are advised of assistance available to them through the Cancer Society will be held at the Pomeroy The Daily Sentinel Public Library downstairs on Dec. 12 from 1 to 3 p.m. . Registration is required by calling 1-888-227-6446, option 2, then option 1. All American Cancer Society programs are free due to local fundraising events like Making Strides Against Breast Cancer and the Meigs County Relay for Life. Those who need help during their cancer journey can call 1-800-2272345 where the line is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. and good people.” Larry Marshall and Courtney Midkiff, representing the Meigs County Health Department, talked about the renewal levy on the ballot. “We try very hard to get out in the community and respond to community needs,” Marshall said. Health Department involvement includes WIC, schools and flu shots. When a tornado hit the Reedsville area, the Health Department helped with recovery; it used grant money to obtain two trailers for medical use. Every community needs good infrastructure, such as schools and roads, Marshall said. “And they don’t come free.” It is infrastructure “that really make a community strong and allow a community to drive forward. In a closing prayer, facing upcoming Election Day, Roger Sayre quoted a verse from Proverbs: “A man plans his own way, but the Lord directs His steps. Help us to commit our plans to You.

ATHENS — O’Bleness Memorial Hospital in Athens will offer blood pressure screening as well as cholesterol and glucose screening Wednesday, Nov. 9. The free blood pressure screening will be open to the public from 9 a.m. until noon in the hospital’s patient entrance lobby. The cholesterol and glucose screening, which will be offered for a $5 fee, will be available at the same location by appointment only from 9 a.m. until noon. To make an appointment, call O’Bleness’ Community Relations office at (740) 592-9300. Free colon-rectal cancer home screening kits and information can be obtained on a daily basis at the hos- pital’s patient and visitor entrance information desks as well as at the Castrop Center information desk. Cholesterol levels typically do not change dramatically in one month so individuals may want to wait two to three months before being screened again. Also, screenings do not take the place of testing. A screening will indicate whether an individual’s level is below, at or above normal ranges; however, for specific readings, an individual may be directed to see a physician for further testing. The cholesterol and glucose screening measures total cholesterol, HDL and glucose levels. O’Bleness offers health screenings Visit us at www.mydailysentinel.com Available only until Nov. 22.

Bryan Walters/photo Members of the Eastern volleyball team hoist the Division IV regional championship trophy with pride after defeating Pike Eastern in the finals Saturday afternoon at Lancaster High School. State-bound: Lady Eagles soar past Pike Eastern in regional final By Bryan Walters bwalters@mydailytribune.com LANCASTER, Ohio — Time flies when you are having fun. The Eastern volleyball team soared to unprecedented heights Saturday after clinching the program’s first-ever state appearance following a straight-game 25-23, 25-17, 25-20 victory over Pike Eastern in a Division IV regional final at Lancaster High School in Fairfield County. The Lady Eagles (27-0) never trailed by more than three points in the first two games and were never down by more than four points in the entire match. Eastern also led wire-to-wire in Game 2 and was up by as many as 11 points — which proved to be the largest lead of the contest. Pike Eastern (25-2) — which lost its third straight regional final in as many years — never solved the Lady Eagles’ front row attack, as Eastern posted team totals of 51 kills and 18 blocks in the triumph. Both teams also missed six serves in the contest. The Lady Eagles become the fourth team in school history and third girls program to advance to an Ohio High School Athletic Association state tournament, joining the 1999 and 2001 softball teams coached by Pam Douthitt. The other Final Four qualifier came in the winter of 2001, when Howie Caldwell guided the boys basketball team to the state semifinals. Caldwell, now in his ninth season as head coach of the Eastern volleyball program, said Saturday’s Bryan Walters/photo Eastern sophomore Maddie Rigsby slams home one of her team-high 15 kills Saturday afternoon in the Division IV regional final against Pike Eastern at Lancaster High School. outcome was one for the at the Ervin J.

After Friday night, now make that three. The Big Blacks moved to 10-0 on the season with a 41-18 final score over the Chapmanville Tigers. The win will give the Big Blacks the overall number one seed in AA, which will mean home field advantage until the championship game at Wheeling. The win also gives the Big Blacks their second Cardinal Conference championship in the last four years. “Words really can not describe how 10-0 feels” said Head Coach Dave Darst. “Our program has continued to get better year after year and to not only become Cardinal Conference champions but also to be undefeated, it shows the dedication that our kids have to being focused on winning football games.” The game was highlighted by another stellar performance from senior quarterback Eric Roberts. The signal caller passed for one touchdown and completed 12 of 16 passes for 191 yards. The Big Blacks running attack had its best performance in weeks with two 100 yard rushing performances on the night. Sophomore fullback Teran Barnitz had 16 carries for 113 yards and two touchdowns on the night. Junior tailback Marquez Griffin had 100 yards even on the night on 15 carries and two scores. That running attack – despite missing leading rushers Tylun Campbell and Anthony Darst for another night – did feature the return of Trey Livingston to the offensive line. Livingston did not play defense as he recovers from his injury. The Big Blacks defense – despite a few big plays from the Chapmanville offense – limited their rushing attack to just 86 total yards. The Tigers received the ball to start the game and turned the ball over on the third play of the game when a Chapmanville runner coughed the ball up and Josh Hereford recovered the ball. Despite a 5 yard loss on the first play of the game, Eric Roberts would hook up with sophomore Chase Walton for a 45 yard touch- Point Pleasant’s Chase Walton carries the ball during nale at Chapmanville. down pass.

Frustration and/or confusion could be the natural outcome. Focus on the quality of your life. If you are single, someone you meet this year is unlikely to be a long-term bond. If you are attached, the two of you often see life goals and the path to get there differently. Don’t view each other as wrong; simply accept the other person and his or her views. Your relationship will become easier. TAURUS can be challenging. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You spark like lightning. If someone is on your bad side, he or she might wish to be otherwise. An assumption you make could be totally off base. You have a lot of fire and get-up-and-go. Tap into your creativity when facing a snafu. Tonight: Don’t go until the wee hours. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH You might feel slightly out of sorts as you try to come to a conclusion. Give yourself time; don’t pressure yourself. You will see the right path, though it could be much later, or tomorrow. Tonight: Read between the lines. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH A friend points to the right path, though there is a defiant side to you that doesn’t want to go along. Of course, ultimately, it is your call, and no one else’s. You will experience the ramifications either way, too. Tonight: Play until you are too tired. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Accept your role right now, even if you aren’t comfortable. We all would like more control -- you are no exception. Right now you really have tremendous sway and impact. First you need to know what you want, OK? Tonight: Until the wee hours. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Look to positive changes and opportunities. Someone in your immediate environment could be a bit sour. Go forward and avoid this person for now. Mobilize your energy positively. Others feel inspired by you, making anything possible. Tonight: Make it early. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH A key partner pushes you very hard. You might not always feel like you have your finances handled. Stay open to suggestions. A partner could test your limits. Be careful with anger and projecting it. Tonight: Let your imagination kick in. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You could be sour and coloring a situation far more negatively than need be. One-on-one relating could be tense. Toss yourself into something you might enjoy doing more. Tonight: Go along with another’s ideas. You will like the outcome. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH You have a lot to get done, but you will get it done. Simply focus on one project after another. Do yourself a favor and try not to isolate yourself or spend too much time alone. You could be a very sorry camper otherwise. Tonight: The later it gets, the better it is. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH Focus on getting the job done, whatever that looks like. Push comes to shove with a friend or loved one. You might wonder why you are doing what you are doing. Stay centered knowing full well when enough is enough. Feelings run to extremes when dealing with others. Tonight: At home. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH If you can work from home, by all means, do. A boss or higher-up could be close to impossible. Why would you subject yourself to that treatment? A communication is vague. The other party might not be as sure as he or she would like to be. Tonight: Yipping up a storm. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH You might find it a little difficult to get someone to talk who has no intention of spilling the beans. Try as you might, you get nowhere very fast. Frustration builds to unprecedented levels. You might feel unusually inspired and pick up on what is going on. Confirm, please. Tonight: Visit on the way home. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Discord easily could continue if the topic is finances. Someone has a vested interest in your thoughts and ideas. Realize what is happening behind the scenes. Know what you need to occur. Understanding evolves once you put yourself in another person’s place. Tonight: Catch up on calls.

Barnitz would punch in the score with 9 minutes left in the first half. Chapmanville would then march on their most successful drive of the half and score with 4 minutes left in the half. They would miss the two-point conversion, setting the score at 14-12. The Big Blacks would march on one more successful drive before the half – keyed by a big reception by senior tight end Jason Stouffer – but a field goal attempt would be no good, leaving the score at 14-12. After the half, it was a different story for the Red and Black. Point would get the ball first after the half and march on an 11 play drive that featured 3 big receptions from Layne Thompson. Marquez Griffin would punch the ball in from 2 yards out with 6 minutes left in the third quarter to give Point the 21-12 lead. The next Big Blacks possession would be the icing on the cake for the game. Teran Barnitz started the drive with a big 30 plus yard run and featured big plays from Griffin and Jerrod Long as well. Roberts would sneak the ball in from 1 yard out with 9:32 left and after the Parsons extra point the score was 28-12. Just one minute later in the game it would be Barnitz punching the ball in from 25 yards out for another touchdown. Despite another big pass play from the Chapmanville offense, Point would add one more score late in the game when Marquez Griffin dashed to the endzone on a 51 yard run. The defense was led on the night by another great performance from junior noseguard Conner Templeton. Junior defensive end Andrew Williamson had another strong night as the front seven for the home squad continues to play extremely well.

They also don’t have any seniors, so they’ll probably be back here again real soon. I have nothing but respect for coach (Janet) Day and the things she has done there.” Ally Hendrix and Brooke Johnson both led the Lady Eagles with eight service points apiece, followed by Jamie Swatzel with seven and Brenna Holter with six.

Hard working, hard hitting, just good football players and good overall kids,” Peck concluded. NOTES: This was the third playoff appearance in school history for the South Gallia football team…The Rebels made the playoffs in 2005 and 2006, falling in the first round both times… It was announced during the game, that Buckeye Central’s Adam Paynter was named the Wendy’s High School Heisman winner for the state of Ohio. By Sarah Hawley shawley@mydailytribune. com NEW WASHINGTON, Ohio — All good things must come to an end, and the Rebels’ 2011 football season was no exception. In playoff competition for the third time in seven years, the South Gallia football team (7-4) came faceto-face with one of the top teams in Division IV, Region 23. “Big, fast and strong, they’re a good team,” said South Gallia head coach Jason Peck. “We thought they might be the best in the region coming in — we’ll see about that. I know they are well coached, there offense fits what they do for their quarterback and running back.” The Bucks (9-2) — making their second playoff appearance in as many years — gained 22 first downs in the game to just three for the Rebels in the 46-0 win. After a scoreless first quarter — in which the South Gallia defense stopped the Bucks on a fourth and five run — the high power Buckeye Central offense came alive. “We were playing on adrenaline, and emotion and you cant do that for four quarters,” said Peck. “Their size and speed took its toll. We were a man down in the middle, which is no excuse for that, we lost one of our players — our big man inside that’s been able to stop people all year long. It made us even smaller against that gigantic size. We were out manned by 84 pounds up front, per man. That is a big difference and hard to overcome.” Just four plays into the second quarter of play, Buckeye Central’s Adam Paynter ran 14 yards around the left side of the line for the first touchdown of the game. After forcing the Rebels to punt on their next possession, Buckeye Central marched quickly down the field for its second score. Senior quarterback Tyler Erwin connected with Paynter on a 25 yard pass for the touchdown. The two point conversion attempt failed, leaving the Bucks with the 12-0 lead. South Gallia’s next drive ended with a interception by the Bucks’ Erwin, setting up Buckeye Central’s third scoring drive of the quarter. Michael Adkins ran the ball in from the 28 yard The Rebels fumbled twice on their final drive, retaining possession both times, but could get no closer than the Buckeye Central 34 yard line. Offensively, the Rebels were led by Cory Haner with eight carries for 34 yards. The Bucks were led by Adkins with 26 carries for 188 yards. Paynter added five carries for 56 yards and two scores. Erwin was the games leading passer with eight completions for 104 yards. “It’s hard to stop a two headed attack. They’ve got a kid with over 1,100 yards and a quarterback that’s thrown for 2,800 yards. It’s hard to stop both. We took away one with the pass, and they kind of got us on the running game,” said Peck. Danny Matney and Austin Phillips combined for one sack for the Rebels, while Haner had one tackle for a loss. John Baker recovered an offensive fumble for the Rebels. This was the final game for South Gallia seniors Austin Phillips, John Johnson, Troy Zinn, Austin Combs, Cory Haner, Levi Ellis, Josh Cooper, Andy Welch, John Baker, Dalton Matney, Danny Matney, Clayton Lucas, Timmy Moreland, Jesse Fisher and Anthony McClellan. “I can’t say enough about our seniors.

MIAMI (AP) — A federal judge on Monday gave final approval to a $410 million settlement in a class-action lawsuit affecting more than 13 million Bank of America customers who had debit card overdrafts during the past decade. Senior U.S. District Judge James Lawrence King said the agreement was fair and reasonable, even though it drew criticism from some customers because they would only receive a fraction of what they paid in overdraft fees. The fees were usually $35 per occurrence. “It’s really undisputed that this is one of the largest settlements ever in a consumer case,” said Aaron Podhurst, a lead attorney for the customer class. The settlement became final a week after Charlotte, N.C.-based Bank of America backed off a plan to charge a $5 monthly fee for debit-card purchases. The outcry prompted other major banks, including JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Wells Fargo & Co., to cancel trial tests of their own debit card fees. Bank attorney Laurence Hutt said 13.2 million Bank of America customers who had debit cards between January 2001 and May 2011 would get some payment. Those who still have accounts would get an automatic credit and the others would get a check mailed to them. No one would have to take any action or fill out any paperwork. Barry Himmelstein, an attorney for customers who objected to the deal, said he calculated that the bank actually raked in $4.5 billion through the overdraft fees and was repaying less than 10 percent. He said the average customer in the case had $300 in overdraft fees, making them eligible for a $27 award — less than one overdraft charge — from the lawsuit. “It’s $4.5 billion that’s gone missing from people’s accounts,” Himmelstein said. Hutt said only 46 customers filed formal objections to the settlement and 350 decided to opt out, meaning they could take separate legal action on their own. “It’s very easy for people to say on the sidelines, ‘I could do better,’” Hutt said. “Never is a settlement at 100 percent of what somebody thinks they can receive at trial. It’s always a compromise.” Customers will receive a minimum of 9 percent of the fees they paid through the settlement, Hutt added. The bank has already paid the money into an escrow account. The lawsuit claimed that Bank of America processed its debit card transactions in the order of highest to lowest dollar amount so it could maximize the overdraft fees customers paid. An overdraft occurs when the account doesn’t have enough money in it to cover a debit card transaction. Similar lawsuits have been filed against more than 30 other banks. Despite the settlement, Bank of America insists there was nothing improper about the processing sequence. New regulations enacted following the recent financial crisis prohibit banks from charging overdraft fees on debit cards without first getting customer permission. Many of the objections concerned the fees for the team of class-action attorneys, which would amount to about $123 million. Lawyers for people opposed to the settlement said that amount should be cut down by at least $50 million, with the money going back to the wronged customers. “The best use is to provide compensation to the class members,” said Elliott Kula, who represents some of the objectors. But King sided with the plaintiffs’ attorneys, noting that they spent thousands of hours on the case and achieved “a superb result” for the customers. “I don’t see anything about this case that’s simple or garden variety,” the judge said. Another complaint concerned missing records for customers from 2001 through 2003, which has made them impossible to identify. The settlement will take about 14 percent of the total — representing an estimate for the fees paid by those customers — and put the money into nonprofit financial literacy programs. In addition, the 32 original named plaintiffs who represented the larger class will get bonuses of up to $5,000 each, $2,500 each if both plaintiffs are a married couple.

South Gallia’s final drive of the first half stalled deep in their own territory, after gaining their only first down of the half. Buckeye Central picked up right where it left off in the second half. Adkins scored his second touchdown of the game — a two yard run up the middle — on the fifth play of half. Paynter added the extra point kick to give the Bucks the 25-0 lead. Adkins would score again on Buckeye Central’s next drive, with a four yard run. Paynter again added the extra point for the Bucks. South Gallia went three and out on its next drive, punting the ball back to the Bucks. Buckeye Central added another touchdown with 1:29 remaining in the third quarter, to take a 39-0 lead. Alec Baldosser scored on the four yard run. The Rebels were again forced to punt to start the fourth quarter. The South Gallia defense held the Bucks to a three and out on the next series, with the Bucks punting for the first time since the opening quarter of play. South Gallia fumbled the ball on the next drive, with Buckeye Central recovering the ball. The Bucks scored for the final time on the resulting possession, with a three yard run by Dustin Snyder. 6-4 WVSSAC high school football ratings PA R K E R S B U R G , W.Va.

The world’s largest package delivery company said Monday it expects a total of 120 million packages around the world during the company’s “peak week,” compared with 113 million last year. The Atlanta company pre- dicts its busiest day will be Dec. 22, when it expects to deliver 26 million parcels. UPS’ smaller rival, FedEx Corp., expects to handle 17 million packages on its busiest day, Dec. 12. That’s 10 percent more than its busiest day last year. Both companies have seen steady growth in shipments throughout the critical holiday season because they’re benefiting from continuing growth in shipments from shoppers that buy gifts from their home computers rather than the local mall. UPS said it’s also noticing that shoppers are ordering gifts online closer to Christmas. That’s creating a compression of the company’s busiest days in the last two weeks before Christmas. The peak season traditionally started around Thanksgiving before the rapid rise of e-commerce.
