For more than 800 years,
nothing has symbolized
the true meaning of
Christma like the Nativity
scene. In 1223, St.
Francis of Assisi created
the first, according to
Christian tradition, in
Greccio, Italy. It was, as it
often is now, an attempt
to focus the emphasis of
the holy day on worship
rather than materialism.
The new Nativity scene at
Sacred Heart Church will
be seen for the first time
tonight during Christmas
Vigil and midnight masses. It includes the Holy
Family, as well as traditional figures like the
angel who appeared to
the shepherds, the kings
who became the first
Christian converts, and
the livestock which must
have been at the first
Christmas in Bethlehem
2,000 years ago.

County officials
issue joint
statement on
holiday bonuses
S ENTINEL STAFF
MDSNEWS@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM

POMEROY Five elected
county officials issued a joint statement Wednesday in response to
recent reports of nearly $19,000 in
year-end holiday bonuses they gave
their employees earlier this month.
Common Pleas Court Judge Fred
W. Crow III, Probate/Juvenile Judge
L. Scott Powell, Recorder Kay HilL
Clerk of Comts Diane Lynch and
Treasurer Peggy Yost issued a signed
press release. saying bonuses are
awarded "to help assist our employees with cost of living increases and
health insurance expenses."
Those officials cite their "fiscal
responsibility'. and "thrifty management'' in managing their 2009
budgets.
Crow granted each of three clerical employees bonuses of $1.500.
and hourly payraises of as much as
$2. Powell awarded bonuses of$600
to each of nine staff. Lynch awarded
four bonuses of $718 and another
$289 to a new employee. Hill granted bonuses of $548 to two staff
members. and Yost $1,000 each to
two full-time staff members and
$500 to a patt-time staff member.
Those bonuses were paid from a
variety of sources. depending on the
office budget from which they were
issued. They were reported in light
of county commissioners' discussions of a projected budget crunch
as the county enters the new year.
Their statement reads:
'·Brian Reed chose not to interview any of the officials who gave
bonuses to their courthouse
employees. The complete facts are
some of the monies used by the
elected officials for bonuses were
previously appropriated by county
commissioners
for employee
salaries to be used this fiscal vear.
·'The other funds used came from
other office revenue and federal
funding sources that could not be
retumed to the general fund. It is
important to note that each and
every one of our offices stayed
within our 2009 budgets appropriated to us by commissioners.
"Prior to this year, salary budgets
for most of our employees had been
frozen for over five years. With cost
of living increases and health insurance expenses of our employees
growing every year. bonuses were
given to help assist our employees
with those costs and to supplement
the manv vears without raises.
"General fund monies allocated
to us for other county expenses
were not used by any of our offices
for these year-end supplemental
salaries. As another fact, through
thrifty management of our budgets,
many of our offices are returning
money back to the ~leigs County
general fund for use this coming
20 I 0 fiscal year that were unused
by us in the 2009 fiscal year.
"We often read and hear about
other Ohio counties and local offices
that spend outside their budgets, lay
off workers or haYe to ask their
strapped counties for more money.
Rest assured none of us have done
that. (We) have used fiscal responsibility to continuously and creative!)
operate\\ ithin our given budgets. lt is
for that reason we have been able to
prO\ ide for our hard-working county
employee:-. under tough fi nancial
restraints and are able to provide our
offices· continued dedication and service to the citizens of Meigs County."

Brothers: small treat. like a pair of

Money has been mysteriously missmg from my
purse a number of times during the past couple of
months. At first I just
thought I was being forgetful, but then my daughter
turned up wearing a sweater
that I know I didn't buy her.
and then new earrings that
couldn't have come from
her allowance. I'm sure
she's been taking the money,
and I don't know what to do
about it. How can I handle
this situation? - J.M.
Dear J.M.: Many kids
steal something at some
point in their lives. and you
should think about what is
driving your daughter to
take money from your
purse. Depending on her
age. she might not think
about the consequences. or
might dismiss it because you
regular!) g~ve her money
anyway. There may be
.,omething else going on.
though, like perhaps your
daughter is trying to impress
new friends or punish you
for not buying her the things
she wants. Regardless of the
reason, you need to stop this
behavior before she gets
caught stealing from someone other than you.
Don't try to trick your
daughter into confessing;
that will JUSt end with more
lies. Instead. openly confront
her with the evidence. and
discuss it. You should hold
your daughter responsible for
stealing. so that she knows it
is not acceptable behavior.
You also can make her retwn
these purchases and work
around the house to repay the
money. Making her aware of
the consequences of her
actions wi 11 allow her to
understand that no matter the
amount or who she steals
from. it is wrong. Keep in
mind, though. that if she continues to steal or act out in
other ways. it might be time
to seek professional help.

this focuses my mind and
lets me be selfish for a little
while. takmg my mind off
my other problems. I told
my mom about this the other
day. though. and she said
that this method of coping is
unhealthy and only will give
me more problems. What's
the truth'? - N.H.
Dear N.H.: The type of
shopping that you are
describing is usuallv knov.·n
as .. retail therapy." It actually can be seen as a form of
compulsive shopping. and
is more common in women
than men. Similarly to compulsive gambling, compulsive shoppers will act
impulsively. not sticking to
lists. or making excuses for
why they are heading back
to the mall. This can be a
slippery slope: as you rack
up credit-card debt and feel
worse and worse about
yourself. it only will drive ·
you to shop more. which is
what's creating the problem
in the first place.
Your mom probably is
right in this case. that hitting
the mall every time you· re
sad or stressed is not a
healthy coping mechanism.
Like you say. it allows you to
forget your other problems.
but it cettainly doesn't make
those problems go away.
Feeling sad can make you
tum inward and focus more
on yourself. and you want to
· bolster that self with material
possessions. Additionally.
studies have shown that
when we're sad. we're willing to pay more for things we
want. Whatever the cause of
this, it can be a problem if
you're
shopptng
when
you're feeling sad. You may
be using shopping as selfmedication for depression.

from coal mine grants
SENTINEL STAFF
MDSNEWS@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM

WASHINGTON. D.C. Both Ohio and West
Virginia arc recipients a part
of the $369 million federal
grant to restore abandoned
coal mines or reclaim damaged land sites .
Ohio's share is $11 .617.294
while West Vif'.!inia receh ed
$29.917.175. ~
Secretary of the Interior
Ken Salazar announced the
grant tn)ncy noting that 28
eligible coal-producing states
and tribes received the grants
by a fommla. based on both
their past and present coal
production. The money will
be used to fund projects like
filling mine shafts and
addressing other safety hazards and environmental
problems resulting from
lands mined and abandoned
or left inade4uately restored

before the passage of the
Surface Mining Control and
Reclamation Act of 1977.
"These grants have consistently provided well-paying
jobs in America's economically depressed coal mining
areas," Salazer said. ''It is
OSM's
estimated
that
Abandoned Mine Lands program created thousands of
new jobs last year and "ith
this year's increased funding
will put more Americans to
work and help them find their
way out of the recession.
The agenc) noted that
despite progress. considerable work remains to eliminate health. safety and environmental problems caused
by past mining practices
still exist.
The abandoned mine land
program is funded through
fees assessed on annual coal
production and pays for the
costs of reclamation projects.

The Daily Sentinel

Thursday, December 24,2009

I am compelled
to consider Christ
Officers barked directions.
The sounds of doors bashed
and the din of ransacking
rumbled down the streets.
Guttural wails of people
reacted to the maniacal and
senseless destruction.
It undoubtedly left the
community emotionally disconsolate. Some stood in
shock. Others were overcome with outrage. Utter
disbelief boggled the minds
of most as they stared at the
heaps. Grief gripped all.
Perhaps it was the first-born
of a young couple. Perhaps
a grandfather was raising an
orphaned tot. Why two
year-olds? Why infants?
In the end, a heavy darkness of emotion, ripped by
the cutting edge of grief, settled over the sorrowing community as the soldiers
cleaned their stained blades
from the blood of innocent
children they had killed. This
is the dark and tragic side of
the Christmas account. The
babes of Bethlehem died
because Herod sought to
snuff out the life of the Christ
child. Using the Bible as a
maP., he knew where the
Ch1ld should be. His brutality was merely temporal fodder for his soul's ease only.
But, let us not lose sight
what this Biblical birth story
of Christ is trying to communicate to us. This incident of
the innocents, initially
pr?pheti~ but eventually prevailing, 1mpresses upon us
compelling spiritual facts.
First, this harrowing act
underscores the desperate
problems that people have
with Jesus Christ. The
Scripture points out that
when Herod heard about the
birth of Christ that he
became ''troubled, and all
Jerusalem with him."
It is a fact that the people
of the world will never have
peace until they cease being
troubled about Christ. As
long as people struggle with
Christ's prescribed way of
salvation, they will be troubled. As long as people struggle with Christ's Sovereignty
and Lordship, they will be
troubled. Only until there is
repentance and submission
to Jesus Christ can there be
peace on earth, as well as
peace in hearts. Are you yet
troubled with Christ?
Another
consideration
with
which to
have
impressed upon us is how
this incident with the innocents at Bethlehem magnifies the spiritual struggle for

Ron
Branch

the souls of men. What transpired there serves to reveal
in the temporal the battleground for the spiritual.
Principalities of evil and
powers of darkness vie
against God continually to
control our eternal destination. You see, your soul and
mine were on the line that
brutal day in Bethlehem.
Behind Herod's brutal, selfserving scheme was none
other than the devil attempting to thwatt God's perfect
plan of redemption.
Yet, the overriding tmth is
that, despite the unfortunate
travesty of innocent children
caught in the middle of an
evil agenda, it all verifies the
victory of God's agenda
through the birth of His Son,
Jesus Christ. It was not the
Lord's time to die in
Bethlehem. Oh, most certainly, He came to die. However,
His death was divinely timed
for a Cross of sacrifice in
Jerusalem, not in Bethlehem.
The "fullness of the time"
wall set for Jerusalem, not for
Bethlehem.
Early on this morning· of
writing, I held my granddaughter, Kinsley, at our
back atrium door watching
the birds at the feeders. She
just this week turned two
years old. She would have
qualified for Herod's slaughter. I was intensely stirred in
my soul with that disturbing
consideration. I thanked God
for his grace that she was not
there, that we were not there.
I cannot answer why God
predicted through Prophet
Jeremiah this incident of the
innocents and then allowed
it to happen. I cannot
answer nor fathom why
mankind is so evil. But,
what it does is to cause me
to want to look to Jesus
Christ for the consolation
He brings to life. It makes
me yearn for the sure hope
and difference-making victory He gives. It causes me
to depend on Him while living in this present presence
of unwieldy depravity. I am
compelled to consider
Christ for good reason.

A Hunger For More
Christmas has come at
last! Children everywhere
have been holding their
breath for what has seemed
to them to be ages upon
ages of waiting, their
hearts pumping and their
eyes shining as they waited
for all the glory of
Christmas morning to be
unveiled!

and their wrappings and

beneath

received and enjoyed inasmuch as they are desirable
to those to whom they have
been given.
Childhood should be the
learning-lab for what we as
adults come to expect in
our spiritual Hves. Little
children are far less intere~ted in maintaining a
restrained sense of dignity,
suppressing their joy of
wonder and discovery as
they tear through paper and
boxes to get to the blessings beneath. Nor has
worldly cynicism yet set in
to steal away the thrill of
opening one's present.
Oh. that we would anticipate as eagerly the
unwrapping of God's gift
of love in our everyday living! The work·of Jesus on
the Cross has opened up to
us all the riches of heaven.

overabundance of God's
blessings in everyday life.

then to receive the good

are those "good things"?

The Nativity ofJesus Christ
Luke 2:1-20 (NKJV)
And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out
Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered.
This census first took place while Quiriniw&gt; was governing
Syl'ia. So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city.
,Joseph also went up froTn Galilee, out of the city of
Nazareth, into .Judea, to the city of David, which is called
Bethlehern, because he was of the house and lineage of
David, to be registered with A1ary, his betrothed wife, who
was with child.
So it was, that while they were there, the days were COTnpletedfor her to be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn
Son, and wrapp~d Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Hi1n in a
manger, because there was no ro01n for them in the inn.
Now there were in the sa1ne country shephe1·ds living out in
the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. And
behold, an angel of the J_,o1·d stood before them, and the glo1·y
oftlze Lord shone around then1, and they were g1·eatly afraid.
Then the angel said to them. "Do not be afraid, for behold,
I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all
people. For the1·e is born to you this day in the city of David
a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be thf} sign to
u: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths,
ing in a manger."
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the
heavenly host p1·aising God and saying:
"Glory to God in the highest,
And on earth peace, goodwill toward nten!''
So it was, when the angels had gone away from them into
heaven, that the shepherds said to one another, "Let us now
go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has come to pass,
which the Lord has 1nade known to us."
And they came with haste and found Mary and Joseph,
and the Babe lying in a 1nanger.
Now when they had seen Hi1n, they n1ade widely known
the saying which was told the1n concerning this Child. And
all those tvho heard it marveled at those things which were
told them by the shepherds.
But P.1my kept all these things and pondered them in her heart.
Then the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising Godfor
all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told then1.

The Magi Visit
the Christ Child

Matthew 2:1-12 (NKJV)
Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the
days of Herod the king, behold, wise rnen jron1 the East
came to Jerusalen1, saying, "Where is He who has been
born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East
and have co1ne to worship Hin1. ''
When f/erod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all
Jerusalem with hi1n. And when he had gathered all the chief
priests and scribes of the people together, he inquir·ed of
the1n where the Christ was to be born.
So they said to hin1, urn Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it is
written by the prophet:
'But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,
A1·e not the least a1nong the rule1·s ofJudah;
For out of you shall co1ne a Ruler
Hll1o will shepherd My people Israel.,.,
• Then Herod, when he had secretly called the wise 1nen,
detenninedfrom them what tinw the star appeared. And he
sent them to Bethlehen1 and said, "Go and search carefully
for the young Child, and when you have found Hin1, bring
back word to me, that I rnay con1e and worship flim also."
~'hen they heard the king, they departed; and behold, the
star which they had seen in the East went before the1n, till it
carne and stood over where the young Child was. ·w hen
they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.
And when they had come into the house, they saw the
young Child with A1ary His 1nother, and fell down and worshiped flirn. And when they had opened their lTeasu1·es, they
presented gifts to Iiirn: gold, frankincense, and 1ny1Th.
Then, being divinely warned in a drean1 that they should
not return to lferod, they departed for their Ol.V11 country

There has been a concerted effort to eliminate the

in the United States, where
there is a (sort of) ''War on

Christmas also meant an

: Polamalu doesn't expect to practice, play
PITTSBURGH (AP) Steelers
safety
Troy
Polamalu didn't practice
again Wednesday because
·of hts injured left knee Jig. ament and doesn't expect
to play Sunday against
. Baltimore.
Polamalu is "encouraged" by an MRI test he
had on Tuesday, but he
· doesn't anticipate practic• ing this week. Asked if he
needs a week of practice
before playing again. he
·said, "I would think so."
The five-time Pro Bowl
safety has missed nine full
games and most of two
• others with separate liga• ment injuries in his left
knee. He hasn't played
. since the opening series
against Cincinnati on Nov.
15. though he has been
working out in anticipation
' of a return.
·Tve tried everything running, lifting. rehab," he
said Wednesday.
Last week, Polamalu said
he hoped to play Jan. 3 in
the regular season-ending
game in Miami.
Since Polamalu sprained
his posterior cruciate ligament, the Steelers (7-7)
have won only one of the
six games he hasn't finished. They were 2-2 when

he missed four games early
in the season with a
sprained anterior cruciate
ligament.
Without Polamalu, the
Steelers defense has lost
leads in the fourth quarter
six times, and they recovered to win only one.
Polamalu leads the Steelers
with three interceptions
despite playing only three
full games all season.
"I don't believe that at
all," Polamalu said, when
a:sked if his absence b hindering the Steelers' ability
to close out games. "I've
been part of a lot of defenses here. defenses that lost
games in the fourth quarter. I don't think one man
makes that big of a difference. There's not one player who is irTeplaceable."
The Steelers ended a
five-game losing streak
Sunday by beating Green
Bay 37-36, despite twice
giving up the lead in the
fourth quarter. The comeback victory kept their
modest playoff hopes
alive.
"1 think everybody feels
a little better this week."
Polamalu said. "We've got
to get our confidence back,
get in those situations and
win in those situations."

I

wish to express their heartfelt gratitude and thanks for the
outpouring of love and support shown to us during
Valerie's recent battle with leukemia.
There are not enough words to express how much the
prayers and gifts were appreciated. Valerie has now
finished her chemotherapy. As she continues to recover.
please keep her in your prayers. Without the support of
friends and family, this journey would be extremely
lonely and very difficult.
With many thanks,

Cavs look like champs against Lakers on Christmas?

BY BRIAN MAHONEY
ASSOCIATED PRESS

.. Just in time for Christmas,
here comes the matchup that
was on the NBA's wish list in
June.
The Kobe Bryant-LeBron
James showdown didn't pan
out last season, but now it
arrives in Hollywood with the
addition of basketball's
biggest supporting actor:
Shaquille O'Neal, formerly
Bryant's teammate. now
James' sidekick.
The Cleveland Cavaliers
visit the Los Angeles Lakers
on Christmas Day, claiming
top billing on a five-game
schedule. And while the meeting is loaded with subplots, it
also comes with a question.
Could this really be an
NBA finals preview?
a
doubt.
"Without
Definitely," Lakers coach Phil
Jackson said. "They're going
to be an elite team. They got
off to a slow start, they had
some issues with new personnel to blend in and they're
going to statt playing well.
Too talented a team not to pay
attention to."
But while Jackson's team
leaves no doubt of its championship potential. Cleveland

has been ordinary too often,
more hype than hope , for
some cnttcs. Charles Barkley
essentially pronounced the
Cavaliers dead two weeks ago
on TNT, saying there "are
on! y two dogs in that (Eastern
Conference) race. Orlando
and Boston are by far the best
two teams in the East."
What about that, LeBron?
"It's too early," James said.
"Boston, Orlando are playing
well. Miami's played great at
times. There are a lot of good
teams. We're happy we're in
the position we are. There's a
long way to go until it all
shakes out."
The season is nearly two
months old, but Christmas is
traditionally when the NBA
makes its first big splash. The
league and ESPN are heavily
promoting the Cavs-Lakers
game, which follows Boston
at Orlando on ABC.
New York opens the schedule with its return to
Christmas competition by
hosting the Heat. The Los
Angeles
Clippers
visit
Phoenix later Friday before
Northwest Division rivals
Denver and P01tland meet in
the nightcap. It's the second
straight year the NBA has
staged five games on Dec. 25,

onships, you are going to have
to go through Cleveland at
some point," Suns coach
Alvin Gentry said.
Yet the Cavs were only
~ood enough for fourth place
m the East behind Boston,
Orlando and Atlanta after that
win, with their mediocre road
play, occasional offensive
droughts and lack of productivity from O'Neal reason
enough to question them.
Nobody doubted the Cavs
last season, when they posted
a league-best 66-16 record
behind James' MVP campaign. But Orlando beat them
m the East finals, wrecking
what could have been a highly anticipated series against
Bryant and the Lakers.
Cleveland resronded by
trading for O'Nea and adding
Anthony Parker and Jamario
Moon, but all the newcomers'
numbers are down from last
season
especially
O'Neal's. It was telling that he
spent the entire fourth quarter
Monday on the bench while
the Cavs were breaking open
a close game against the Suns.
Jeff Van Gundy, who will
work with Jackson and Mike
Breen on Friday's telecast.
said Boston has been the
East's best but insisted the

the most it's scheduled on the
holiday.
The Knicks will be decked
out in green jerseys for their
league-high 45th appearance
on the holiday, having I?layed
in the first set of Christmas
games in J 947. The Trai I
Blazers will try to improve the
NBA's best Christmas winning percentage, having gone
13-2 thus far.
Still, the most attention
goes to the biggest names, and
that's Bryant, James and
O'Neal.
The defending champion
Lakers returned from a fivegame road trip with a 22-4
record, looking like a heavy
favorite to get back to the
finals for the third straight
season. Even with Bryant
nursing a broken finger, they
appear even stronger than the
team that overwhelmed
Orlando in five games in
June.
Cleveland improved to 21-8
by handing Phoenix its first
home loss with a 109-91 rout
Monday. a dominant performance on both ends of the
floor that was a reminder of
how good the Cavs can be.
"Contrary to what anybody
may think, to get to the
Eastern Conference champi-

teammate LeBron James, center right, as Daniel Gibson (1)
and Anderson Varegao, right, look on after West scored
against the Phoenix Suns during the third quarter of an NBA
basketball game Monday in Phoenix.

Cavs are still finals material.
He believes O'Neal proved
his value when he got Dwight
Howard in foul trouble in
Cleveland's
victory
at
Orlando last month.

'This idea that they have to
make some tremendous jump
in play I think is a little b1t
overstated," he said. ''I just
think they have to play a ltttle
•
bit better."
