Trick-or-Treat in the Village of Syracuse is Oct. 31 from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. All village streets (with the exception of State Route 124) will be closed to vehicle traffic during that time. Council approved to pay $2,200 to remove trees from the roadside park property. The trees are reported to be hanging down and are hazardous to vehicles. The previous fiscal officer, Crystal Cottrill, told council the sand and gravel storage shed cost was more than the amount left on the loan. The village needs to pay an additional $5,000 to $6,000 to pay the final invoice. Council approved making the payment with the street and highway fund. Council approved to pay Cottrill for her time spent training the new fiscal officer, Tiffany McDaniel. McDaniel will be in training with various people for the next few weeks. Council also voted to pay $698.79 for medical insurance and prescription coverage for McDaniel. Mayor Eric Cunningham received two letters of interest for the vacant council position. However, one withdrew her letter because they did not know the meetings were on Thursdays and they had a prior commitment. The second letter was from an unqualified person because council members must have resided in the village for at least the last 12 months. Cunningham is accepting letters of interest for the position until Oct. 16. The village is also accepting resumes for a water maintenance person until Oct. 1.

DS Fuels is looking at a ceremonial groundbreaking near the end of October, possibly the beginning of November, depending on weather. There is a tentative estimate that actual dirt could turn at the site for construction in Spring 2020, with that construction lasting 24-28 months. Whited said financing for the project is in place.

Four charged in theft ring that targeted temples ATLANTA (AP) — Federal prosecutors in Atlanta have charged four people in what they say was a brazen theft ring that stole more than $80,000 in cash and jewelry from Hindu and Buddhist temples around the country. The U.S. attorney’s office said Monday the four defendants posed as tourists seeking information about the temples’ customs and practices. While temple staff were distracted, they took cash and jewelry, sometimes snatching gold from deities. The defendants are accused of stealing from temples in Ohio, Illinois, Missouri, Georgia and New Jersey. Prosecutors say three of them — Valer Iazmin Varga, Robert-Auras Adam and AnaLoredana Adam — are Romanian nationals. They each face conspiracy and stolen goods charges.

A grand jury indictment handed down in July and unsealed Monday accuses the couple of stealing cellular research they conducted at Nationwide Children’s Hospital’s Research Institute in Columbus. The indictment accuses 46-year-old Li Chen and her husband, 49-year-old Yu Zhou, of stealing trade secrets related to the research and illegally transferring the information to China. The indictment also says the couple set up businesses in China, applied for patents there and traveled to China, all without Nationwide Children’s authorization. Steve Nolder, an attorney representing Chen, declined comment, calling it a “complicated and sensitive case.” A message was left with Zhou’s attorney.

Kentucky man jailed in threat to Planned Parenthood in Ohio INDEPENDENCE, Ky. (AP) — A Kentucky man accused of threatening to blow up a Planned Parenthood facility in Cincinnati was ordered held on $100,000 bond Monday after police found a “homemade destructive device” at his home. WXIX-TV reports Daniel Kibler was arrested Sunday after police searched his home in Independence. He is charged with possession of a destructive device, terroristic threatening and eight counts of wanton endangerment. His arrest citation says Kibler admitted to creating the destructive device and storing it in his home he’s shared with his wife and seven children. A judge revealed during Kibler’s arraignment on Monday that the business he allegedly targeted was a Planned Parenthood office in Cincinnati. Planned Parenthood Southwest Ohio President Kersha Deibel said in a statement Monday that the facility was open to serve patients needing care. “We are here for our patients today and we will continue to be here for our patients, no matter what. For the women, men and young people we serve, the care we provide isn’t about politics — it’s about their well-being, and we remain focused on ensuring our patients are able to access that care safely.” �LOCAL Daily Sentinel Tuesday, September 17, 2019 3 9/11 From page 1 Sarah Hawley | Sentinel 2018 Party in the Park Queen Marissa Brooker and 2019 Party in the Park Queen Mickenzie Ferrell.

Americans who have served in a completely transformed military in the past 18 years. Martin believes the 9-11 generation as a group has transformed significantly, and is the embodiment of a quote from Winston Churchill, “Kites rise highest against the wind, not with it.” Transformation is the thorough or dramatic change in form or appearance, and while many aspects of these changes have been positive, there have also been some very negative consequences this generation is dealing with, including substance abuse. “Nationwide communities face an unprecedented rise in substance abuse fatalities. Our goal at the Meigs County Sheriff’s Office is to change this epidemic, beginning at an early age.” School Resource Officers have been assigned in each of the three school districts with the goal of providing students with a safer environment, the opportunity to make drug and alcohol education available, and to build a lifelong positive relationship with Law Enforcement Officers. The sheriff’s office also hosts events to encourage those relationships, including Shop with a Cop, Hooked on Fishing Not on Drugs, and Prevention Day at the Meigs County Fair. Martin is one of those Resource Officers, and concluded, “This Office will continue to strive and to protect and education not only the youth, but all of Meigs County. God bless you all, and God bless America.” As a minister in the United Methodist Church, Pastor Larry Fisher’s message was to remind and assure everyone that God is always with us, even when terrible things happen, and that there is a reminder of His presence if we just look for it. “We all have fears, some of us fear spiders, or heights, some of us are claustrophobic, but God knows our fears. There are many examples where God’s first words to us are “Don’t be afraid,” but we are, it is just who we are, from small things to large things, we have our fears. “ Lorna Hart | Courtesy Above: The Southern Marching Band performed the National Anthem as part of the 9-11 memorial ceremony on Saturday. At left: Albert Proffitt speaks as part of the 9-11 memorial ceremony. Fisher said that on 9-11 it was easy to become afraid, no one knew exactly what had happened, and many people, including himself, found themselves in potentially dangerous situations. “My family and I were living in Louisiana near Barksdale Air Force Base. If you remember, Air Force One with President George W. Bush landed at Barksdale on 9-11.” President Bush was brought to Barksdale Air Force Base after learning of the attacks, and it was there the President gave his first address to the nation. “So here we all were, near the base, a base that is of strategic importance, a base used to store bombers and nuclear weapons. Were we at risk of an attack? No one knew what was happening, we were afraid. So how did our community deal with this? The community turned to God, with prayers and church services. God said don’t be afraid.” “The cross found in the ruins at Ground Zero in New York City was a reminder that God is still with us in the midst of tragedy.” To the officers and first responders, he said, “Remember that God is with you in those moments when you walk into unknown and dangerous situations. Thank you to all of those Mark Porter Chrysler Dodge Jeep and Ram we make car dreams come true who protect us.” Albert Proffit directed the ceremony, and is the builder of the 9-11 Memorial Cross that sits near the Racine American Legion Post No. 602 Veteran’s Memorial. Profitt said that he was inspired to build a replica of the cross found at Ground Zero when he saw some pieces of metal that looked similar. “I saw those scraps of metal and they just reminded me of the ones found among the rubble of the Twin Towers, so I used them to make the Cross. I just felt it was something I needed to do,” Profit said. The community of Racine takes time each year during Party in the Park to remember 9-11, and Profitt’s memorial is a continual reminder to all who pass by to “Never Forget.” “The ceremony is to show respect for those that secure our safety. There has been no closure to the devastation that happened that day, more lives have been lost (by first responders) due to asbestos in the air from the buildings’ (Twin Towers) collapse, and by our military. This is something ongoing, we don’t let the pain go, we just learn how to deal with it,” said Proffitt.

Whenever your telephone rang, it meant someone you knew had something to ask you or something to tell you. It was almost never a stranger calling. Occasionally, someone might call you by mistake. You would politely tell them they had the wrong number. They would thank you politely and hang up. That was it. Randy Oh, how times have changed. Riley Our home phone rings almost conContributing stantly. We now screen all our calls. columnist We never answer our home phone unless we recognize the caller’s name or the number. The rest of the calls are all robocalls from solicitors or scammers looking for money as part of some whacky telephone scam. I counted those nuisance calls recently. In just three days, we had over 40 calls that came from unknown places. Most never leave a message. Most were from the New York area code. Several were from … well, who knows where they came from. I’m sure every one of them wanted to sell us something or scam us out of some amount of money or some of our personal information, like bank numbers or social security numbers. Early this year, during tax preparation season, I received the following message on our home phone answering machine. I typed it here exactly as it was recorded — mistakes and all. “We have just received a notification regarding your tax filings from the headquarters which will get expired in the next 24 working hours and once it is expired you will be taken into custody by the local cops as there are four serious allegations pressed on your name at this moment. We would request you get back to us so that we can discuss about this case before taking any legal action against you. The number to reach us is 209-301-8747. I repeat 209-301-8747.” Like a good citizen, I reported the call to the police. They reassured me that it was a common scam. The IRS never makes this type of call. The IRS will never threaten anyone over the phone with legal action or being taken into custody by the “local cops.” The wording and the entire message were pure nonsense. Here are a few things to bear in mind about the IRS. According to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration, J. Russell George, “If the IRS wants a taxpayer’s attention, the first contact is generally through the U.S. mail. Also, the IRS will not ask for payment using a prepaid debit card, a money order or a wire transfer. The IRS also will never ask for a credit card number or your bank information over the phone.” If any of those requests are made, it is not the IRS on the other end of the line. Hang up immediately. According to the inspector general, “These scammers are only succeeding with a handful of victims. On average, between 30 and 40 new victims each week report that they paid the impersonators money. This is a vast improvement over the hundreds of new victims who paid money in previous years.” George says, “Do not engage with these callers. If they call you, hang up the telephone.” Not just counting the IRS scam, over 5 billion scam calls are made each year in the United States. Most people either hang up or just don’t answer, but if only a small percentage are successful, millions of Americans are losing millions of dollars to these scammers, and the scammers are getting more and more clever. Several years ago, Debbie and I signed up to be on the national “Do Not Call List.” That was a waste of time. We still get dozens of unwanted calls every day. Somehow the scammers managed to get around the “Do Not Call List” program. Scammers have also concocted a way of changing the appearance of their number on caller ID to look like a familiar number. Debbie even noticed that they displayed our own home phone number on the caller ID. Out of curiosity, she answered the call and it was just a typical robocall. That process, displaying fake numbers on the caller-ID, is called “Spoofing.” It’s now a common practice with scammers. Another scam that is really irritating is answering my cell phone only to hear a human voice say, “Hello. Is Don there?” Of course, you tell them they have the wrong number, but they then say, “… well, maybe you can help them.” Then they start in with their scam. Just stop it! Help me out. If no one every responded, if they didn’t make a dime off their scamming activity, sooner of later they might stop. Let’s make it sooner rather than later. Ignore the calls. Hang up. Don’t ever talk to a scam caller. Maybe… just maybe, they’ll stop. Someday. Maybe. Randy Riley is former Mayor of Wilmington and former Clinton County Commissioner in Ohio. THEIR VIEW Halloween at what price? As the leaves begin to yield to the influence of the changing season thoughts begin to turn to the harvest, preparing for the changing weather and Halloween. Retailers’ attention turned to Halloween long before yours and mine did, and it seems to happen earlier and earlier with each passing year. I really don’t mind that much though. Spring and fall happen to be my two most favorite times of the year anyway. Perhaps it’s just the change I need, or the more favorable weather conditions that accompany both seasons. It’s not the crushing heat of summer, and not yet the cold, grey and bleak days of winter. Plus, the smells of the new flowers in the spring, or of the foliage as it succumbs to the changing season is something I really enjoy. Halloween is probably my favorite of the socalled “holidays.” I don’t know why. It just always has been. I love to see the jack-o-lanterns, the shocks of corn, the scarecrows, black cats, witches and all the things that story) decorations represent the time that had served us of year.

DETROIT — More than 49,000 members of the United Auto Workers went on strike Monday against General Motors, bringing more than 50 factories and parts warehouses to a standstill in the union’s first walkout against the No. 1 U.S. automaker in over a decade. Workers left factories and formed picket lines shortly after midnight in the dispute over a new four-year contract. The union’s top negotiator said in a letter to the company that the strike could have been averted had the company made its latest offer sooner. The letter dated Sunday suggests that the company and union are not as far apart as the rhetoric leading up to the strike had indicated. Negotiations continued Monday in Detroit after breaking off during the weekend. But union spokesman Brian Rothenberg said the two sides have come to terms on only 2% of the contract. “We’ve got 98% to go,” he said Monday. Asked about the possibility of federal mediation, President Donald Trump said it’s possible if the company and union want it. “Hopefully they’ll be able to work out the GM strike quickly,” Trump said before leaving the White House for New Mexico. “Hopefully, they’re going to work it out quickly and solidly.” Wall Street did not like seeing the union picketers. GM shares closed Monday down 4.2 percent to $37.21. On the picket line Monday at GM’s transmission plant in Toledo, Ohio, workers who said they have been with the company for more than 30 years were concerned for younger colleagues who are making less money under GM’s two-tier wage scale and have fewer benefits. Paul Kane, from South Lyon, Michigan, a 42-year GM employee, said much of what the union is fighting for will not affect him. “It’s not right when you’re working next to someone, doing the same job and they’re making a lot more money,” he said. “They should be making the same as me. They’ve got families to support.” Kane said GM workers gave up pay raises and made other concessions to keep GM afloat during its 2009 trip through bankruptcy protection. “Now it’s their turn to pay us back,” he said. “That was the promise they gave.” There are many important items left in the talks, including wage increases, pay for new hires, job security, profit sharing and treatment of temporary workers, Dittes wrote. “We are willing to meet as frequently, and for as long as it takes, to reach an agreement that treats our members fairly,” the letter said. GM issued a statement saying it wants to reach a deal that builds a strong future for workers and the business. The automaker said Sunday that it offered pay raises and $7 billion worth of U.S. factory investments resulting in 5,400 new positions, a minority of which would be filled by existing employees. GM would not give a precise number. The company also said it offered higher profit sharing, “nationally leading” health benefits and an $8,000 payment to each worker upon ratification. Friday, Oct. 4 POMEROY — The regular meeting of Meigs County Public Employee Retires Inc., (PERI), Chapter 74 will meet at 1 p.m. at the Mulberry Community Center, located at 260 Mulberry Ave., Pomeroy.

Musgrave said he and Whited began working on the project in April 2016. Whited explained, when he heard the permit was approved on Thursday, he felt “a lot of gratitude” and thanked those in the community who showed their support at a recent DEP public hearing on the air quality permit. “It (the plant), will be a game changer,” Whited said. “It’s a major investment and we talked about the use of natural gas and coal as two very important assets of West Virginia, but (also) it’s the people, that’s where education comes in…we need to make sure we are actively creating a quality workforce, not just for us but as John (Musgrave) alluded to, anytime there’s activity in the marketplace it generates more activity.” Whited and DS Fuels plan to partner with the development authority and Mason County Schools to assist in any workforce development efforts. The expectation is, that this development will spur more interest in terms of economic development in Mason County. Musgrave remarked on the potential for downstream jobs (those triggered by the development) with DS Fuels estimating thousands will be created though an impact study on that very subject is currently being done by West Virginia University for a closer look at the numbers. With the news of the permit approval, the DS Fuels website has been receiving a lot of traffic, including resumes. The company is creating a database with those resumes but doesn’t anticipate posting for jobs until early next year, with the initial postings being for management and team leaders.

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — Austin Kendall and Kennedy McKoy made sure that West Virginia didn’t repeat a miserable offensive showing from its last game. Kendall threw three touchdown passes to lead West Virginia to a 44-27 victory over North Carolina State on Saturday. McKoy helped West Virginia’s run game break out of a slump with a pair of scores, and the Mountaineers (2-1) had by far their highest offensive production of the season one week after looking lethargic in a 38-7 loss at Missouri. “For us to play winning football, we have to identity ourselves as a blue-collar unit,” West Virginia coach Neal Brown said. “We have to outwork people, we have to outphysical people. And we embraced that this week. I think what you saw on that field today was a product of that.” Kendall threw two interceptions against Missouri and had another pick on Saturday but overcame that with mostly solid decisions. Kendall had first-half TD tosses of 20 and 13 yards. His 25-yard run early in the fourth quarter set up his 9-yard scoring toss to freshman Ali Jennings for a 38-27 lead. Kendall went 27 of 40 for 272 yards. West Virginia broke a 21-21 halftime tie with the help of its special teams and defense, which had been criticized by the coaching staff for 22 missed tackles a week ago. North Carolina State (2-1) managed just 97 yards of offense in the second half. Sophomore Matthew McKay threw a first-quarter touchdown pass but was harassed all game in his first road start. McKay finished 23 of 48 for 207 yards. He was 9 of 24 for 72 yards after halftime. West Virginia’s McKoy had a 23-yard TD run in the first quarter and scored from 5 yards out in the third after Logan Thimons blocked a See wvu | 7 Local CC teams compete at Belpre, SEHS By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com Five different area schools were involved in a pair of cross country meets on Saturday. Gallia Academy, Eastern, South Gallia and Meigs were at the Belpre Invitational, while River Valley participated at the Aaron Reed Invitational at Southeastern High School. Here’s how each of those programs fared at those respective events. Belpre Invitational A combined total of 29 teams and 305 individuals — including four programs from the Ohio Valley Publishing area — took part in the Belpre Invitational on Saturday. There were 14 teams and 132 competitors in the girls race, with Sarah Watts of Gallia Academy coming away with top individual honors with a time of 19:44.2. Woodrow Wilson won the girls team title with 73 points. The Eastern girls placed seventh with 192 points, while the Blue Angels were 12th with 280 points. South Gallia did not have enough runners for a team score and Meigs did not have an entrant in the field. The Lady Eagles were led by Erica Durst with a fourth place time of 20:46.4, followed by Ashton Guthrie (23:19.6) and Whitney Durst (24:21.8) with respective finishes of 40th and 52nd. Alysa Howard (24:38.1) and Lexa Hayes (24:53.5) completed the EHS team score with placements of 54th and 57th. Krystal Davison followed Watts for GAHS with a 61st place time of 25:00.6. Brooke Hamilton (27:14.5) and Eliza Davies (27:21.6) were next with respective finishes of 84th and 88th, while Kristen Jamora (27:27.0) completed the team tally by placing 88th overall. Taylor Facemire (28:44.1) and Calista Barnes (31:33.0) were also 103rd and 117th, respectively, for the Blue Angels. Alina Malyshevska paced the Lady Rebels with a 82nd place mark of 26:53.9. Gulnara Chepiyeva (32:37.7) and Lusine Avetisyan (36:09.1) also finished 120th and 132nd overall.

Edwards Stadium in Huntington, W.Va. Marshall outlasts Bobcats, 33-31 Thundering Herd wins first Battle for the Bell trophy since 2014 By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com HUNTINGTON, W.Va. — When the Thundering Herd found themselves on the ropes, they answered the bell. In doing so, they also got to keep it. Xavier Gaines hauled in a game-winning 43-yard touchdown pass from Isaiah Green with 7:45 left in regulation, allowing Marshall to claim a hardfought 33-31 gridiron victory over visiting Ohio on Saturday evening in the 60th Battle for the Bell meeting held at Joan C. Edwards Stadium. The Thundering Herd (2-1) never trailed in the first half and were ahead 27-24 entering the finale, but the Bobcats (1-2) secured their only lead of the night following a 72-yard scamper by quarterback Nathan Rourke — making it a 31-27 contest with 11:14 remaining. The hosts, however, responded with their only scoring drive in the second half after marching 75 yards in seven plays — with Green finding Gaines on a pivotal thirdand-five play from the OU 43. Gaines caught the pass on the left side of the field, then broke back to the middle while eluding defenders and strolled into the end zone for a two-point advantage. Marshall missed the impending point-after kick, which left the contest at 33-31 with 7:45 remaining. The Bobcats managed to get the ball to their own 43 on the ensuing drive before punting the ball down to the MU 3-yard line with 5:42 left in the game. The Herd strung together a 10-play drive that ultimately pushed the ball down to the Ohio two. MU — with a first-and-goal situation and 1:17 remaining — simply took a pair of kneel-downs to run out the clock … and secured its first Battle for the Bell win since the 2014 campaign. In a game that featured 949 yards of total offense and only one turnover — a third quarter fumble by Ohio with 5:59 left — it was Marshall that made the most of its opportunities. Ohio — which won the last Battle for the Bell meeting in 2015 — still owns a 33-21-6 lead in the head-to-head series with MU, but the Bobcats have also dropped two consecutive decisions overall. Gaines ended up starting what he finished after scoring on a 26-yard run during the opening drive of the game, giving the hosts a 7-0 cushion at the 12:45 mark of the first period. Both teams traded punts on their ensuing Ohio receiver Shane Hooks (5) hauls in a second quarter touchdown between Marshall defenders Brandon Drayton (8) and Chris Jackson, right, on Saturday at Joan C. Edwards Stadium in Huntington, W.Va. possessions, then Ohio answered with its first points as Louie Zervos drilled a 44-yard field goal at the 7:51 mark for a 7-3 contest. Justin Rohrwasser completed the first quarter scoring with a 38-yard field goal at the 3:55 mark for a 10-3 advantage. The Bobcats followed with an 8-play, 59-yard drive that resulted in a 10-all tie as Rourke found Shane Hooks on a 20-yard TD pass in the front right corner of the end zone with 14:09 remaining in the second frame. MU, however, answered with a 10-play, 69-yard drive that was capped by a 2-yard TD run by Brenden Knox at the 9:18 mark — pushing the hosts back out in front by a 17-10 count. Ohio countered with a 6-play, 75-yard drive that ended with Rourke finding De’Montre Tuggle on an 18-yard TD pass at the 6:09 mark for a tie game at 17-all. The Herd retaliated with the final two scores of the first half. Devin Miller hauled in a 22-yard pass from Green at the 3:12 mark for a 24-17 advantage, then Rohrwasser tacked on a 37-yard field goal with 54 seconds See battle | 7 �SPORTS/TELEVISION Daily Sentinel Fairland wins OVC girls golf title Battle MU claimed a 24-18 edge in first downs and also finished the night plus-1 in turnover differential.

By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com IRONTON, Ohio — It only takes one. The Gallia Academy girls golf team missed defending its league title by a single stroke on Friday as Fairland pulled off a one shot victory at the 2019 Ohio Valley Conference championships held at the Ironton Country Club in Lawrence County. The Blue Angels produced four of the 10 lowest individual rounds and were the only program to have all four counting scores end up in double digits, but the Lady Dragons received a monster performance from Hanna Shrout at the top of their scorecard … and ultimately managed to hang on for the crown. Shrout fired a remarkable 5-under par effort of 65 over 18 holes and ended up 15 strokes ahead of the field en route to medalist honors. Bailey Meadows of GAHS was the overall runnerup with an effort of 80. Fairland finished the day with a team score of 364, while Gallia Academy fired a 365. South Point was third out of five scoring teams with a 377, with Ironton (440) edging out Coal Grove (442) for the fourth spot. Neither Chesapeake nor Rock Hill produced a team score with only one participant apiece.

There are reports of horses, cattle, and sheep poisoned from eating green or dried hemp dogbane. At one time, it was considered that 0.5 to 1 ounces of green or dry leaves could kill a horse or a cow. However, recent evidence suggests that this report was the result of an error (emphasis mine).” In any event, if any local producers have had animals poisoned or sickened by Hemp Dogbane, I haven’t heard of it. Livestock are usually pretty good about eating around the things that taste bad, but a haybale consisting primarily of Hemp Dogbane can’t be a good thing. Control. Unfortunately, most experts agree on one thing: Hemp Dogbane is difficult to control, and once it takes hold it can be difficult to get rid of it. The most aggressive way of controlling Hemp Dogbane is by fall applications of 2, 4D or other broadleaf herbicides. Alfalfa and winter wheat are good competitors with Hemp Dogbane, and some people have reported success with repeated mowing or soil disturbance (i.e. plowing). Who knows why this particular plant has been so conspicuous this year? Perhaps the conditions were just right for it. Who knows what next year will bring?

Given a chance to show they’re a team on the upswing, the Bengals imploded every which way Sunday in their home opener. Their 41-17 loss to the 49ers was reminiscent of their many bad moments during the last three losing seasons. Instead of seeing a fresh start, the crowd of 50,666 got more of the same. “They just took it to us,” cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick said. “I definitely thought we would play with a lot more of a sense of urgency. We just have to go out there and take a good look in the mirror at ourselves.” The Bengals had a solid showing overall during a 21-20 loss in Seattle a week earlier that suggested they were making progress under first-year head coach Zac Taylor.
