REED BREED@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM POMEROY - For the first time in several years. Meigs County Commissioners may resort to across-the-board_cuts in appropriations to make their general fund budget balance. To date. the county budget has not yet reached certification. meaning the.revenue projected in January for the fiscal year ending later this month - $3.95 million - has not yet been realized by the county through real estate and sales tax collections. fees and other sources. County Auditor Mary Byer~Hill said Friday she expects that certification to be met by year's end. At a recent meeting of the Ohio County Commissioners Association. Meigs commissioners heard distressing financial news from county leaders across the Buckeye State. Some counties are facing budget cuts of nearly half. putting county workers out of work and forcing county departments to work bare bones operations. Counties experiencing difficulties financially range in size, population • and location. but some counties in southeastern Ohio are facing major budgetary crises. Mick Davenport. president of the board. is serving his eleventh year in office. He said commissioners have cut budgets twice in those years. two years in a row. at five and 15 percent. Since those days in the early 2000's. commissioners have been able to continue appropriations at present levels.

The Advent Wreath B Y CHARLENE H OEFLICH See Page A3 POMEROY - As Christians we use symbols to express visually the basic principles of our faith in Christ as we journey through life. The Advent Wreath has been described as the symbol of a "season of preparation and longing." The ctrcular garlaQd of evergreen branches represents eternity and the candles represent an aspect of spiritual preparation for the celebration of the anniversary of our Lord's coming into the world.

On the first Sunday of Advent. the first purple candle is lit. This candle is ' typically called the prophecy candle in remembrance of the prophets. primarily Isaiah. who foretold the birth of Christ. Thi~ candle represents hope or expectation in anticipation of the comin!! Messiah. Each week on Sunday. an additional candle is lit. On the second Sunday of Advent. the second purple candle is lit. This candle typically represents love. Some traditions call this the Bethlehem candle. symbolizing Christ's manger. On the third Sunday of Advent the pink. or rose-colored candle is lit. This pink candle is customarily called the Shepherds' candle and it represents joy. The fourth and last purple candle, oftentimes called the Angel's candle. represents peace and is lit on the fourth Sunday of Advent. On Christmas Eve. the white center candle is traditionally lit. This candle is called the Christ candle and represents the light that has come into the world through Christ. While there have been variations over the years. the main purpose of the Advent wreath symbol remains one of marking the progression of the season . of Advent and encouraging the faithful to prepare for a celebration of the birth of Christ and to look forward to His coming again. from Felman B Y DELYSSA HUFFMAN DHUFFMAN@MYDAILYREGISTER.COM INDEX 2 SECTIONS -12 PAGES Calendars e ssifieds A3 B3-4 Comics Bs Editorials A4 Sports B Section © aoo9 Ohio Valley Publishing Co. . ll.l!l~,I !I!1.!I!II .

Seniors can stop thieves Take it slow .--- -- --. Each year. nearly 25 million Americans arc victims of consumer fraud. Senior citizens are more at risk of telemarketi ng ~cams than any other age group. Fraudulent tclemmketcrs direct 56 to 80 percent of their calls at older adults. Evidence indicates that offenders believe older people have more assets and are more susceptible to excitement tactics or appeals to altruism. They have told police their ideal "mark'' is an elderly person, who lives alone, wtth no contact with family members. They know that senior citizens will not give money or personal information to just any stranger. These experienced criminals have made a science of gaining the trust of older adults. Scam artists are experts at establishing rapport and stealing seniors' money. Some scams include: • • Claims that you've \\On a prize. but must pay to receive it: • Great deals that need Immediate payment and there's no time for written information: • Requests for donations for mysterious charities: • Offer~ to ··repair'' your credit in exchange for an up-front fee or to help you recoup money you've lost in another fraudule nt scheme; and • Calls from the :-.uppo:-.ed police, FBI or bank officials asking for "help" and your personal infomtation. According to an AARP survey, 90 percent of survey respondents report awareness of consumer fraud: yet twothirds said it is hard to spot fraud when it is happening. The survey also showed that senior citizens find it difficult to end telephone calls. even when they say Barbara Riley thev arc not interested in continuing the conversation. Scam artists count on the politeness of senior citizens. Remember, you are not being rude if you: • Ask to receive the ~reat deal or prize offer in wnting so you can read it carefully before making a commitment: · • Refuse to ~ive out personal informatton over the phone or ,Internet (unless you initiated the contact); or • Refuse to pay for an offer in advance. Legitimate telemarkcters apprl!ciatc dealing with an educated consumer. If the caller gets frustrated or rude at your unwillingness to provide information, take it a~ a warning sign . Criminals also believe that senior citizens will not report the crime to law enforcement officials because they will be ashamed of being victimi:ted and will worry that concerned family members will take control of their tinances. Recognizing ~cammers is important to protect yourself. Reporting them to the appropriate Jaw enforcement authorities is critical to protecting others. When you report a scammer, you can help the police prosecute them and stop the scam mer from stealing from someone ebe. Report scams to your local police department and the state Attorney General at 1-800-282-0515, so they can prosecute fraudulent telemarketers who try to steal your money.

RIO GRANDE University of Rio Grande students now have the opportunity to purchase digital textbooks for their classes. as part of project to help students save money and gain convenience. The Rio Grande Bookstore will be selling a large number of its titles as both traditional and digital textbooks for the :-.pring seme~ter. und the program 1 i-s expected to be popular with students. ' David Ding. general manager of the bookstore, explained that the store has had a lot of success with' its "textbook rental" program. nod he is pleased that the store can now offer this program as well. The Rio Grande Bookstore is run by students. and Ding is the only non-student employee. The students order merchandise. determine how the store shelves arc organized and work in all aspects of the business. The store gives them great experience, while they also provide a service to other Rio Grande students by offering different products and services. Rio Grande was the second school in Ohio to offer the textbook rental program. and it allowed studenb to save money on the cost of their books. ''It's been very well received." Ding said. The rental program is continuing. and now the store is offering the digital textbooks. which can be purchased in different ways. · One \Vay is for students to download the textbooks onto their laptop computers. Students can sa\ e 40-60 percent on the cost of traditiona) textbooks. and they will like havin~ their books on their computers. This program is time-limited, meaning the digital textbooks will only stay on the computers for a limited amount of time. such as one or two semesters. Students can also pur- chase access codes to Web sites that will allow them to log onto the igital textbooks from their computers, cell phones and other pieces of equipment, and then read the books. This program can also have time limits. Students can also purchase unlimited time limits on digital textbooks. which means they \\ill always have the books on their computer~. or they will always he able to log onto the Wl!b sites for the books. These digital textbooks cost a littk more than the one with time limits. but they still provide savings over purchasing a traditional book. Students who purchase books with unlimited access will also recetve download-. of the new editions of the books. every time the books are updated. The Rio Grande Bookstore sells the activation codes and downloads for the textbook companieli, and the books are purchased so that they fit with the courses being taught on campus.

But \vait - it wasn't his hard-earned mane). was it? Perhaps the money you ~end him for groceries is not ' being spent on food at all, and he is regularly using it for various forms of entertainment. He sounds like an honest young man - after all. he told you about what happened in Vegas or wher-; ever he went. But perhaps you need to rethink your supplements. You're a well; meaning mother. but perhaps you have lingering doubts about your son's ability to take care of himself. Perhaps he· d be better off actually learning to bud; get the small amount of salary he makes so that he isn't depending on his morri to make sure he survives. You might start by thinking of him as a man instead of a child. and go from there.

This ha~ been going on for many years. and every year when some kids graduate. more are admitted. It's almost like a club or sorority. though it is mixed guys and girls. And that is the problem. Some of us are upset because there are three couples now dating within the house, and it makes for all sorts of drama and uncomfortable living situations. Any advice? - A.T. Dear A.T.: It is difficult \vhen a coed dorm turns into a domestic drama for the people who are involved, as well as those left behind. It sounds as though since you are off-campus, you aren't being governed by any kind of dom1 rules or university oversight. So you pretty much hav~ to make up your own rules. and I'm sure you have some to deal with .the shared responsibilities of cleaning. cooking, parking, shopping. utilities. pets and so forth. So. now you may need to formulate some guidelines for personal behavior, however uncool you may think such a code of conduct is. Since it is impossible to predict human · relationships, chemist!)' and hooking up, you need to at least have a general consensus on behavior so that everyone has the same chance to do their work, Jive comfmtably anc!. have some modicum of privacy. As long as there is a coed house, there are going to be 1ssues with sexual tension. It is one of those situations where you either need to be able to stand the heat or get out of the kitchen. Perhaps you can enlist some of the people who are in a couple to call a house meeting, so it docsn 't look like sour grapes from the singles. and really hash out the issues. Try not to make it personal. but make sure you come out of it with some kind of guidelines and a clearer idea of the rights and responsibilities of all the residents. The sooner you do this. the better!

The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution TC)DAY IN HISTORY Today is Tuesday, Dec. 15, the 349th day of 2009. There are 16 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On Dec 15, 1791, the Bill of Rights went into effect following ratification by Virginia. On this date: In 1890, Sioux Chief Sitting Bull and 11 other tribe members were killed in Grand River, S.D., during a confrontation with Indian police In 1893, Antonin Dvorak's Symphony No.9 in E minor, Op. 95, "From the New World," was rehearsed before the public at New York's Camegre Hall (the official world premiere was held the next day). In 1938, groundbreakrng ceremonies for the Jefferson Memorial took place in Washington. D.C., with President Franklin D. Roosevelt taking part. In 1939, the motion picture "Gone With the Wind" had its world premiere in Atlanta. In 1944, a smgle-engine plane carrying bandleader Glenn Miller, a major in the U.S. Army Air Forces, disappeared over the Englisi-J Channel while en route to Paris. American forces invaded Mindoro Island in the Philippines. . In 1948, former State Department official Alger Hiss was indicted by a federal grand jury in New York on charges of perjury. (He was convicted in 1950.) In 1961, former Nazi official Adolf Eichmann was sentenced to death by an Israeli court. In 1964, Canada's House of Commons approved dropping the "Red Ensign" flag in favor of a new design. In 1965. two U.S. manned spacecraft, Gemini 6A and Gemmi 7, maneuvered to wtthin 10 feet of each other while in orbit. In 1979, the deposed Shah of Iran left the United States for Panama, the same day.the International Court of Justtce 1n The Hague, Netherlands, issued a provisional order for Iran to release all its American hostages. Ten years ago: With President Btll Clinton's close mediation, Syria reopened peace talks with Israel in Washington. Five years ago: lime Warner Inc agreed to pay over $500 m1lhon to resolve federal securities fraud and accountrng investigations of its Amenca Online unit. U.S. telecommunications giants Sprint Corp. and Nextel Communicattons Inc. announced they would merge in a $35 billion deal. Pauline Gore, mother of former Vice President AI Gore, died iQ Carthage, Tenn.; she was 92. One year ago: President George W. Bush wrapped up a whirlwind trip to Iraq and Afghanistan. President-elect Barack Obama said a review by his own lawyer showed he had no direct contact with Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich about the appointment of a Senate replacement, and that transition atdes "did nothing inappropriate." Illinois lawmakers took the first steps toward removing Blagojev1ch, a Democrat, from office. Today's Birthdays: Actor-comedian lim Conway is 76. Singer Cmdy Birdsong (The Supremes) is 70.

Lincoln S qUestion at Gettysburg still relevant : Thought for Today: "Experience is a good teacher, but she sends In terrific bills." - Minna Antrim, American writer (1856-1950). 1 Maybe it's the recession. Or the perilous state of the war in Afghanistan. Or the growing sense that other nations - China. India. Brazil - are rising at a clip we can't match. Suddenly, though. doubts are surfacing about whether our political system can handle the challenges that confront the United States. Just before Thanksgiving, sameday op-ed pieces by two leading news commentators - The Washington Post's fred Hiatt and The New York Times' Thomas Friedman - crystallized this concern by asking roughly the same question: Can our government l>till get things done, or will it allow us to be overwhelmed by the nation's predicaments? "What 1 incrcasmgly fear today,'' Friedman wrote, ''is that America is only able to produce 'suboptimal' responses to its biggest problems.'' It is not very far from that observation to the question Abraham Lincoln raised at Gettysburg as he wondered whether "a nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure." Lincoln, of course, was consumed by the Civil War and the long-unresolved connict over slavery. ln the 18th and 19th centuries, when our form of government was first laid out and then put into practice, a political leader might wrestle with just a handful of such first-tier challenges during his lifetime. Today. your average member of Congress has to confront five or six major issues before lunchtime, from the state of the economy to health-care reform to the unsustainability of our national debt to climate change and war overseas. In this super-charged atmosphere. as crises come at us with great rapidity and complexity. you have to wonder whether we can sustain effective governance. especially the ability to think long-term and to craft policy solutions that are not enfeebled by the tackle the problem head-on. or should leave well enough alone. t\.loreover. cable television and the Internet have empowered the loudest, most divisive voices. which makes consensus in Washington even harder to reach.

Polamalu has missed eight games and most of t~·o others with a pair of ligament injuries in his left knee. He hasn't played since the opening series against Cincinnati on Nov. IS and probably \von 't play against Green Bay on Sunday. when the Steelers (6-7) will try to end a fivegame losing strea!<. The five-time Pro Bowl safety said Monday he wants to return "at least'' for the regular season finale at Miami on Jan. 3, even if the game is meaningless to Pittsburgh. The Steelers also play Dec. 27 against Baltimore. "Why not?" said Polamalu, who is wearing a large. protective brace on the knee. ''I'm a football player. I'm not a coach, I'm not a cheerleader. What I love to do is play football and be out there with my brothers. That's why. It's always been irrelevant for me whether or not we go to the Super Bowl or playoffs. It's something I enjoy." • Asked last week what it would take to play again this season, Polamalu said, "A whole lot of healing (in the knee). A whole Jot of prayers.'' Losing one of the NFL's best defensive players has significantly affected the Super Bowl champion Steeler!'>. They are 4-0 when Polamalu is on the field for at least one quarter - beating Tennessee. Minnesota and Denver but 2-7 when he is out or plays only a handful of downs, as he did against Cincinnati. Polamalu who .helped lead Pittsburgh to Jts second Super Bowl victory in four seasons in February, missed the Steelers' second through fifth games with a sprained anterior cruciate ligament. He sat out the last four games with a sprained posterior cruciate ligament that was initially expected to be less severe than his earlier injury. As the offseason approaches - one that is likely to arrive much sooner than the Steelers anticipated when the¥ were 6-2 - Polamalu is looking for more off-field work. Polamalu has signed with William Morris Endeavor Entertainment, looking to expand on the commercial work he's already done for Head and Shoulders, EA Sports, Nike and Coca-Cola. He also hopes to do some television work. "It's a lot tougher than it looks. It's hard for me to come out of my shell in the first place," said Polamalu, who speaks softly and is known for his lack of ego and pretentiousness. "It's just not you and the camera, it's you and the 50 people behind the camera. Not only that. it's long hours just to do a little commercial, it takes a lot of time." contest were D .J.

COAL GROVE (1-2): Adkins 2 4·6 8, CINCINNATI (AP) Chad Ochocinco walked into the Cincinnati Bengals' locker room on Monday afternoon wearing a gray sweatsuit and black slippers. talking to someone on a shiny gold cell phone. Care to chat about the Bengals' offense? "Nothing to talk about," he said, before heading for the door. When it comes to Cincinnati's passing game, there's really not much to say. The AFC North leaders have a growing problem when it comes to throwing the ball. They've emphasized the run so much in their formations and· playcalling that they've lost their passmg touch. And it's probably too late to get it back. The Bengals (9-4) were reminded of their biggest shortcoming during a 30-10 loss Sunday at Minneapolis. The Vikings contained their running game, and Carson Palmer and the receivers couldn't compensate. Palmer threw for only 94 yards - earlier in his career. that would be one decent quarter. · ''I don't know if we're going to change what we do," Palmer said on Monday. "We're on the top of our division and still can control our destiny. After one loss, there's no reason to say, 'All right, we're going to become. a passing football team,' because we're a running football team." That's about all they do these days. In three of the past four games. the Bengals have had more yards rushing than passing - a shocking statistic in a pass-oriented league. They've been held under 200 net yards passing in six games this season. and under 100 yards twice. Only once in the past five games have they topped 200 net yards passing - they had 202 in a win over Detroit. Cincinnati hit new lows during the loss at Minnesota. where it faced one of the league's top run defenses. Palmer was I 5 of 25 for 94 AP photo Cincinnati Bengals' Carson Palmer (9) is sacked by Minnesota Vikings' Brian Robison during the fir~t half of an NFL football game Sunday. yards, matching the secondlowest total of his career for an entire game. His longest completion went 15 yards. Receiver Laveranues Coles went the entire game without a pass thrown his way. "It was our worst passing outing of the year," Palmer said. "Nothing's changed as far as us thinking we're a team that's going to ~o out and throw the ball 50 tlmes a game. We haven't been that all year. We're a team that throws the ball about 20 times and runs it about 30. That's who we are, and that's who we're going to continue to be.'' Part of it is by design. After finishing last in the league on offense last season. the Bengals redesigned the offense to emphasize the run. They made a turnaround from their four-win season and swept their division games by relying on the running game and the defense. which is among the league's stingiest. Against the Vikings, the combination wasn't good enough. The Bengals selfdestructed with II penalties that repeatedly backed them up. It turned mto a warning sign of what could happen in the playoffs. "That's the big point," center Kyle Cook said Monday. ''Some teams you can do these things against - you don't want to, but you can kind of get away with them. Against a playoff-picture team. you can't do these things. They.'re going to hurt you and they're going to hurt you bad." Since deep threat Chris Henry broke his arm during a win over Baltimore on Nov. 8, the Bengals have had 63 possessions and scored only five touchdowns. Ochocinco is the only consistent downfield threat, which means he ·s getting double- and tripleteamed. Coles, who was signed after T.J. Houshmandzadeh left as a free agent. has only 33 catches in 13 games. An obvious concern is whether Palmer's right elbow is acting up. He missed all but four gan a last season after tearing_w tendon and ligament in h1s passing elbow, but the injury had fully healed by minicamp. He has been off-target on some throws. but it seems to be more a measure of the passing game losing its tim·mg. "Nothing's wrong with my elbow," he said. "Nothing's wrong with my body. My ego ·s hurt by losing a big game for us in a big environment." Palmer would like to think that the Bengals can still throw the ball enough to win some playoff games. The Bengals can clinch the division title with a victory Sunday in San Diego. "Hopefully we can get more and more out of the passing game,'' he said. "But because of one loss. we're not going to go back to the drawing board and change our identity and freak like everybody else is o side this locker room." ·a· Lady Chiefs defeat Blue Angels, 40-31 Bv.

The sophomore quarterback was not allowed to speak with reporters Monday during the Buckeyes' media day for their upcoming Rose Bowl appearance.

'Tll get you guys back," . ~joked. At the Fiesta Bowl media day. Ohio State made 30 players available - but Pryor was not one of them.
