Lead, a dangerous, toxic substance, is naturally found in the Earth’s crust, but also can be a component of many products. Its past overuse in paint, leaded gasoline, and other products has resulted in additional contamination and human illness in many parts of the world. Lead can enter the body through the skin, by breathing, or by swallowing contaminated products, such as food, water, paint and dust. Lead poisoning is not limited to children, but can affect anyone. High lead levels can cause serious neurological and developmental issues in children, some of the most common signs being learning difficulties, irritability, loss of appetite, weight loss, sluggishness, fatigue, abdominal pain and vomiting. Lead poisoning affects every organ in the body and can happen rapidly depending upon the source of exposure. Homes built before 1970 are most likely to be at risk for having leadbased paint on the walls with lead, such or trim.

Commander Huber complains, “Members don’t go to meetings.” True, but is the Commander asking why? And if he is told why, is he really listening? Maybe the majority of the members don’t go to the meetings because they might feel disenfranchised. Maybe they feel that no matter what they say or do, they can’t seem able to change the environment. Maybe they don’t attend because Commander Huber the reminder for the complains, “Members Legion meeting isn’t don’t go to meetings.” published on a consistent basis. True, but is the Commander Huber Commander asking complains, “if they do why? And if he is (attend the meetings), told why, is he really they’re late.” Again, is the Commander asklistening?

Is it reminder for the because they feel they Legion meeting isn’t published on a are never listened to? Do the members feel consistent basis. like they are being run rough-shod over, if they express a contrary opinion? There are reasons, real reasons, why the members don’t make an effort to attend or show up on time or run for office. But none of the current leadership seems to care enough about American Legion Lafayette Post #27 to find out WHY! Believe it, it’s not because “the weather doesn’t suit them.” Commander Huber complains, “if they do attend…some find fault with the work of the Officers.” What “work” of the Officers? What “work” is getting done by any of the “Officers?” And again, is the Commander listening to those members? Does the Commander or any Officer try to resolve the conflicts with those members? Is the meeting being run by Legion protocol? Mostly. Does the Commander have control of the meeting? Barely. Are the official reports being kept and presented in accordance with American Legion Standards? No! Are the assets and inventories being kept, secured, and inventoried in the proper manner as suggested by American Legion standards? No! The Commander said, “there’s no new, young members…” The sole responsibility of the First Vice Commander is membership. But he is the Commander of the local VFW. Do you see any conflict of interest there? Almost all of the Officers of American Legion Lafayette Post#27 are Officers at the local VFW post. Do you see any conflict of interest there? The Commander complained, “some members never accept office.” One of the reasons that almost no one wants to be an Officer at Post#27 might be because of the existing leadership’s fear of losing control, the fear of not getting the credit for a job well done or just the inability to delegate, to relinquish the authority to let someone do the job they would be elected to do. The Commander complained, “members get sore if…not appointed on a committee…if they are (appointed), do not attend committee meetings.” What committees? Post#27 doesn’t have any committees. Who is on the membership committee? If there is one, according to Commander Huber, they must not be attending the committee meetings. There have been members who volunteered to help in certain areas. Members with the experience and knowledge to be able to do a good job and make improvements in and for Post#27. See LEGION | 7A THEIR VIEW Springing forward — anxiously Daylight Savings Time takes effect this Sunday at 2 a.m., and none too soon, as far as some folks I’ve spoken with are concerned. This will be the “spring forward” that now precedes the official arrival of spring, not the “fall back” we experience, usually about the first weekend in November. We tend to greet “fall back” because, as the term indicates, clocks are turned back one hour and we benefit from that additional 60 minutes of slumber before winter comes knocking on the door. That is, if you don’t mind it being pitch dark at 5 p.m. until the winter solstice prior to Christmas. “Spring forward” means that we lose that hour by sending time pieces ahead. The compensation comes from an extension of daylight and a resulting improved mental outlook, especially for those individuals whose favorite outdoor activities, be it gardening or golf, can be enjoyed in the evening hours. having taken a My own personal hiatus in February, complaint about made its return in spring forward the past week and stems from the looks to linger into impact it has on the coming week. my sleep pattern.

See SPRINGING | 7A THEIR VIEW Einstein’s career filled with quotes of a skeptic Albert Einstein would almost certainly have been a global warming skeptic if he were alive today. Many distinguished, contemporary scientists are skeptics too. We are lucky that Einstein left a rich legacy of pithy quotes that reveal how he would probably relate to today’s cult of global warming alarmists. Take the oft repeated propaganda that 97 percent of scientists support global-warming alarmism. Quite aside from the falseness of the claim, Einstein would have remembered the famous attack on himself, “A Hundred Scientists Against Einstein,” published in Germany in 1931. His response was, “If I were wrong, one would have been enough.” His view of groupthink was summarized in another comment: waves, whose exis“In order to be a tence, at exactly member of a flock Will the level Einstein of sheep, one must, Happer Contributing predicted, was above all, be a columnist first demonstrated sheep oneself!” by my Princeton Or take the oft friends, Joe Taylor repeated statement and Russell A.

To make matters worse For example, Newtofor alarmists, no one nian gravitation had no room for the gravitational knows how much of the relatively small warming is due to increased carbon dioxide. After all, quite similar warming was observed more than a century ago when CO2 could not have played a role. The alarmist narrative has been proven wrong by experimental observation. With his reverence for observational fact, Einstein would have been repulsed by the Orwellian demonization of CO2 as “carbon pollution.” Satellites show that the modest increase of CO2 in the past few decades has produced a measurable greening of the Earth, especially in arid regions. Plants “breathe in” CO2 and “exhale” oxygen. Commercial growers add as much CO2 as they can afford to their greenhouses, to improve the quality of their flowers, fruits See EINSTEIN | 7A �LOCAL/TELEVISION Sunday Times-Sentinel Sunday, March 11, 2018 5A Warrant From page 1A County Common Pleas Court, bond revocation from the Gallia County Common Pleas Court, failure to appear (2) from the Gallipolis Municipal Court and a probation violation from the Gallia County Common Pleas Court.

Allegedly found at the residence was suspected heroin, methamphetamine, marijuana seeds and drug paraphernalia. “As this investigation continues, agents with the Major Crimes Task Force will be consulting with Prosecuting Attorney Jason Holdren’s Office with regards to charges,” Champlin said. “The proactive law enforcement activity that was conducted today is another example of how we are taking the fight to the criminals.” The Major Crimes Task Force of Gallia-Meigs is a state task force under the jurisdiction the Ohio Organized Crime Investigations Commission which is part of the Ohio Attorney General’s Office, the task force was formed in September 2013 and consists of the Gallia and Meigs County Sheriff’s Offices, Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation, the Gallipolis City Police Department, the Middleport Police Department and both the Gallia and Meigs County Prosecutor’s Offices.

If so, we would be interested in hearing what alternatives may be suggested. At the same time, Phase II of Farm Road is still a possible solution to the traffic congestion issues experienced along Eastern, the busy section of Route 7 handling local flow as well as from surrounding counties. Initially, the proposal called for making Farm Road a means of directing traffic around Eastern and into downtown Gallipolis by providing access off Ohio 735 at Kanauga south to the intersection of Third Avenue and Sycamore Street. In addition, it was also to serve as a flood escape route, particularly after Ohio River flooding in March 1997 actually crept across Eastern. The first phase, from 735 to the newly-created GKN Sinter Drive, was completed; a guardrail offers a reminder of where the next half of the project begins. Some food for thought as resolution of traffic and access concerns in the affected area proceed. If Information submitted by Joan King. Court Kala Y.

Adult humans breathe out about two pounds of the “pollutant” CO2 per day. Over most of geological history, concentrations of atmospheric CO2 have been much higher than those today. Both plant and animal life were more abundant when the atmosphere was enriched with three or four times more CO2 than today’s levels.

Rather than address honest scientific concerns, alarmists attack skeptics as “deniers,” a word deliberately chosen to vilify the person, along with CO2. Einstein was subject to similar attacks, by envious, prejudiced contemporaries. His advice on how to deal with this was: “Weak people revenge. Strong people forgive.

A 1949 graduate of Ohio University, Mr. Owen began his career in local newspapers with The Daily Sentinel. He expanded the company’s holdings with the 1959 purchase of the Gallipolis Daily Tribune and of the Point Pleasant Register a decade later.

In four of the past five seasons, the top seed has been bounced from the conference tournament, falling short of an NCAA bid after weeks of success. Out: teams such as Valparaiso in 2016, which won 26 games before losing its Horizon Tournament opener. In: teams such as Milwaukee in 2014, which finished tied for fifth, then won the conference tourney and received a No. 15 seed in the Big Dance, losing by 20 to Villanova. The trend continued last weekend when Northern Kentucky, the Horizon’s regular-season champion, lost to eighth-seeded Cleveland State in the quarterfinals. It was no surprise Monday when Commissioner Jon LeCrone was asked what his league could do to give the top teams more of an advantage in the postseason. “We’ve tried every single bracket,” LeCrone said. “We’ve tried every format. We’ve tried giving byes into the semifinals.” For leagues like the ACC and Big East, a conference tournament is simple. Invite the teams, sell lots of tickets and let the chips fall where they may. But at the mid-major level and below, the postseason can feel like a zero-sum game. At-large bids to the NCAA Tournament are scarce, so whoever wins the conference tourney is often the league’s only representative. The challenge for these conferences is figuring out which postseason format is best for them — how much, if at all, should they protect the top seeds? Upset bids add drama to these league tournaments, but there are a couple reasons confer“I think the tensions ences might give their are trying to create top seeds preferential a really good treatment. There’s a sense that regularexperience that brings fans and has season success should be rewarded. Plus, a that sort of cache league’s No. 1 seed is around being this big- often the team best time event, while also positioned to win in trying to protect your the NCAA Tournament. top seeds.” “I think the ten— Amy Huchthausen, sions are trying to America East Conference create a really good commissioner experience that brings fans and has that sort of cache around being this big-time event, while also trying to protect your top seeds,” said Amy Huchthausen, commissioner of the America East Conference. “The reality for the mid-major conferences is that we’re likely going to get one team into the NCAA Tournament, and obviously the seeding of that team is really important.” The regular-season champ may not always be the best team in a conference — when Florida Gulf Coast went to the Sweet 16 in 2013, the Eagles had finished second in the Atlantic Sun. Still, when a particularly impressive No. 1 seed loses in a conference tournament, it’s easy to wonder what might have been. That Valpo team in 2016 ended up in the NIT title game, while Green Bay, the Horizon’s NCAA Tournament representative, received a No. 14 seed and lost by 27. In 2015-16, Monmouth earned national recognition by beating UCLA and Notre Dame, but the Hawks lost in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Tournament. Contrast Monmouth with Stephen F. Austin, which dominated the Southland Conference that season and received a double bye in the league tournament. The Lumberjacks made the NCAAs, beat West Virginia and nearly knocked off Notre Dame as well. The top seed in the MAAC Tournament hasn’t won it since 2010. This year’s bracket was set up to give the top two seeds an extra day off between the quarterfinals and semifinals — but that didn’t do much good for top-seeded Rider and second-seeded Canisius, because they bothlost in the quarters. “If you’re in the first two, you get the day off before you play in the semis,” MAAC Commissioner Rich Ensor said. “It didn’t work so well this year, but most years it’s a big difference because you’re playing with fresh legs.” The MAAC holds a single-site tournament, with all games at one venue. The America East allows the higher seed to host each game. Since the league went to that setup in 2015, the No. 1 seed has won the competition all three times, and Vermont will try to extend that streak Saturday against UMBC. It wasn’t always this way in the America East. Albany hosted the first two rounds in 2013 and 2014 and upset the top seed in the semifinals both years, even though it was seeded fourth. “Ultimately, we came to consensus that the most important thing for our league was to See SEEDS | 2B Mustangs handle RedStorm women, 97-69 By Randy Payton For Ohio Valley Publishing Courtesy photo Rio Grande’s Alexis Payne puts up a shot over Morningside College’s Grace Meyer during Thursday night’s NAIA Division II Women’s Basketball National Championship Tournament game at the Tyson Events Center in Sioux City, Iowa.

But the Mustangs scored the final five points of the half to take a 10-point lead at the break and netted the first six points of the second half to open up a 16-point advantage with just 75 seconds gone in the third period. Rio closed the gap to 11 points, 54-43, after a conventional three-point play by Payne just over a minute later, but never got any closer. Morningside stretched its cushion to 21 points by the end of the third quarter and to as many as 32 points with just over a minute left to play in the game. Madison Braun, the Seeds From page 1B protect the higher seeds,” Huchthausen said. The Patriot League, Atlantic Sun and Northeast Conference also played on campus sites this year with higher seeds hosting. Another option is a hybrid: The No. 1 seed hosts the quarterfinals and semifinals, but if the top seed is eliminated, the title game is played at the home of the highest remaining seed. The Big South did this last season and this season, and the Horizon has used a format like that in the past. But it’s not an idea LeCrone particularly wants to return to. The Horizon has played its tournament in Detroit the past three years. “We want to know what we’re selling, and Great Plains Athletic Conference Player of the Year, led the Mustangs with a game-high 27 points — 20 of which came in the opening half. She also had a gamehigh seven steals and tied teammate Sierra Mitchell — the GPAC Freshman of the Year — for game-high honors with four assists. Sydney Hupp added 15 points to the winning effort, while Mitchell had 14 points and Made Maly finished with 13 points. Rachelle House had a team-best eight rebounds for Morningside. Payne, who played her final game in a Rio Grande uniform, finished with a team-high 21 points in the loss. She had all but three of the RedStorm’s 16 third quarter points. Sophomore Sydney Holden (Wheelersburg, OH) added 13 points, a game-high 14 rebounds and a team-best three assists in the loss, while sophomore Kamryn Conway (Lucasville, OH) tossed in 11 points. Freshman Chyna Chambers (Columbus, OH) also had three assists for Rio Grande, which shot just 34 percent overall (11-for-32) in the second half. The RedStorm also went just 1-for-10 from three-point range after halftime. The loss also kept Rio Grande winless in seven all-time national tournament appearances — four as a Division I member and now three in Division II. we’ve experimented with this idea where we didn’t quite know where our tournament was, when we played on campus,” LeCrone said. “It was really difficult.” For leagues that want to play at predetermined sites, there’s another way to protect top seeds — by giving them extra byes. The eight-team Ohio Valley Tournament was held this year in Evansville, Indiana. The bottom four teams played in the first round, with the No. 3 and 4 seeds receiving byes into the second round and the No. 1 and 2 seeds earning byes all the way to the semifinals. Murray State, the No. 1 seed, won the title . The Southland uses the same setup at its tournament in Katy, Texas. The semifinals are Friday, and top-seeded Southeastern Louisiana and second-seeded Nicholls should be well rested. “Sometimes teams can do well with a week off, and sometimes teams get hot and play well back-to-back,” said John Williams, the Southland’s deputy commissioner. “You would think that it’d give them a huge advantage, but in some cases it doesn’t.” The top seed has won the Southland Tournament four straight seasons, but over in the Horizon, even double byes couldn’t prevent some wild results. In 2014, top-seeded Green Bay and second-seeded Cleveland State received byes into the semifinals, and Green Bay was hosting that round. Those two teams immediately lost. The haphazard nature of single-elimination play can be tough to make sense of. “It doesn’t always work out the way you think it would,” Williams said.

Caitlin Peal has fought more than one battle in her brief lifetime, but the Point Pleasant senior had a lot of those previous efforts pay off after signing a letter of intent to continue her soccer career at the University of Charleston on Thursday, March 8, at the PPJSHS library in Mason County. Peal — a three-year starter and four-year letterwinner — hasn’t had a stat-filled career full of gaudy numbers, but the jack-of-all-trades senior has been a key part of the Lady Knights’ successes over the past four years — including two years apiece at the Class AAA and Class AA ranks. Peal produced only six goals and eight assists of her career, with most of those coming as a senior after spending her sophomore and juniors seasons as an outside back starter. Her move to center middle last fall, however, proved beneficial as Peal scored a header during a 2-1 win over Sissonville in a Region IV, Section 1 semifinal at Ohio Valley Bank Track and Field. Peal has quietly put together a solid high school resume, one that was noticed by the Golden Eagles — who are members of the Mountain East Conference in NCAA Division II competition. When asked about her thoughts of being able to continue her soccer career at the collegiate level, Peal was quite humble about the opportunity — noting that this chance belonged to a lot more people than just her, “It’s an incredibly proud moment, both for me and the people around me. There’s no way that I would have reached this point without the help of my family, my teammates and my coaches along the way,” Peal said. “If I had told my 12-year old self that I’d be here right now joining a college program for soccer, I never would have believed it. It’s a great honor to have an opportunity like this and I’m really looking forward to the next four years.” Peal’s journey to college has not been the norm, rather it be from personal triumphs to simply getting better as a player to be on the field. Peal battled health issues when she was younger, then had to bat- Bryan Walters|OVP Sports Point Pleasant senior Caitlin Peal, seated front and center, will be continuing her soccer career after signing a letter of intent with the University of Charleston on Thursday at the PPJSHS library in Point Pleasant, W.Va. Caitlin, a three-year starter for the Lady Knights, is joined by her parents Christy and Dave Peal, with PPHS girls soccer coach Chris Errett standing in back. tle teammates for playing time as a freshman at the Class AAA level in 2014. Yet, for all of the obstacles, Peal always found a way to produce positive results as the years passed at Point Pleasant. And, in an ironic way, it’s something that she welcomes facing again at UC — especially while pursuing another lifelong dream. “I didn’t start as a freshman in high school, so I just kept working hard and continued improving my game. That’s basically where I am again at Charleston, so I know that I have to keep working and improving to get on the field. I’m excited because I know it won’t be easy, but I’m not afraid of challenges,” Peal said. “I was diagnosed with cancer at a really young age, but I was fortunate enough to beat it. It did teach me the importance of caring about people though, and that’s why I’ve always wanted to go into the nursing field. “Charleston has a wonderful nursing program and I feel that they will have me well-prepared in my professional field of study … plus I get to keep playing soccer. It’s literally a dream come true.” Peal becomes the second Lady Knight in as many years to sign with a collegiate program for soccer, joining former teammate and current University of Rio Grande freshman Chelsea Black. PPHS girls soccer coach Chris Errett had high praise for his threestarter, noting that Peal is probably the player most deserving of a shot that he has ever coached. He’s also proud that Point Pleasant is starting to draw the attention of some collegiate coaches on a regular basis. “It’s another good day for the program because the girls are starting to see the benefits of hard work paying off. Obviously we are proud of Caitlin and happy to see her get an opportunity like this,” Errett said. “In all my years of coaching, I’ve never had a player improve as much from her freshman year to her senior year than Caitlin. I honestly think she still has yet to hit her peak as a player, so I’m excited to see what the future has in store for her.” Errett — who just completed his fifth season at Point Pleasant — says the Golden Eagles are getting a pretty special person, rather it be on the field or in the world. As he says, her versatility and approach are second to none. “She’s played a lot of different positions during her time here at Point Pleasant. She has a very even skill set and isn’t afraid of playing anywhere on the field,” Errett said. “She’s a hard worker and a team-first player, so you can put any task in front of her and know that she’s going to do everything that she can to get positive results for the group. “More than anything though, she is passionate — and that’s perhaps her greatest attribute. Charleston is getting a fine player, a fine student and a fine young lady.” Peal — who currently carries a 3.3 grade-point average — says there were a lot of other factors that went into making a decision of this magnitude, including the campus and location. In the end, Peal concluded that the University of Charleston was the perfect fit. She also noted that PPHS has helped prepare her for that next journey. “The people were friendly and some of the views from campus are just breathtaking along the river. It also helps that it’s 45 minutes away from home, so my fam- ily and friends can come watch me play. It’s not too far away,” Peal said. “I feel Point Pleasant has prepared me for the challenge of playing at the next level, mainly because of the competition we’ve faced over the last four years in triple-A and double-A. I’m really excited to get started.” Caitlin is the daughter of Dave and Christy Peal, who reside in Pliny, W.Va.

The Browns aren’t fooling around. With three stunning trades on the eve of free agency, Cleveland landed a proven starting quarterback, a gamebreaking, three-time Pro Bowl wide receiver and a shut-down cornerback. After 16 straight losses on the field, victory. Two months after a winless season mercifully ended, new general manager John Dorsey addressed major roster needs Friday by acquiring mobile quarterback Tyrod Taylor in a deal with Buffalo, wide receiver Jarvis Landry from Miami and cornerback Damarious Randall from Green Bay, a person with direct knowledge of the overhaul told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity. Teams are not permitted to announce any trades until next week. In exchange, the Browns shipped quarterback DeShone Kizer and swapped late-round picks with the Packers, gave the Dolphins a fourthround pick this season and a seventh rounder in 2019 and sent the Bills the No. 65 overall pick in this year’s draft. All in a day’s work for Dorsey, who brought in major talent without giving up any of the team’s five picks in the first two rounds this year. And the makeover came as the team awaits word from Pro Bowl left tackle Joe Thomas on get SERIOUS… ON MY MAMA,” Landry posted on Twitter shortly after news that he was Cleveland bound broke. The additions of Taylor and Landry certainly must have thrilled new Browns offensive coordinator Todd Haley, who was fired in Pittsburgh following the Steelers’ divisional-round playoff loss. Haley spent the past six seasons working with Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell. All Cleveland needs is a breakaway running back and the Browns could get one with the No. 4 overall pick if Penn State’s Saquon Barkley is still around. Dorsey also took care of defensive coordinator Gregg Williams by acquiring Randall, a former first-round pick who was inactive for the Packers’ final two games last season with a knee Bill Wippert | AP file injury. Buffalo Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor (5) dives for the first down marker during a game in 2015. Two people familiar with the trade said Randall started 30 Friday the Cleveland Browns have agreed to acquire Taylor from the Bills for a third-round draft pick this year. games in three years for the Packers, who drafted him with the No. 30 until wide receiver Josh Oklahoma’s Baker Mayhis future.

What better team for figure it’s not for you, no pole in Phoenix successful,” said Jackson, me to make an impact than hard feelings, we still love during eight seasons returning kicks for the Browns, Cribbs is joining Cleveland’s coaching staff as a special teams intern. Cribbs was a threat to score any time he lined up deep for a kickoff or punt, and he’ll now give some of his expertise to young, impressionable Cleveland players. “I’ve earned their respect already as a player. Now I get to earn their respect as a coach,” Cribbs said. “I pour into them all the knowledge I have to make them successful and make them do the things I did. I have this burning desire to be around football, to get back in the game. This the Cleveland Browns?” Cribbs accepted the internship about a month ago from coach Hue Jackson. He’s working under new Browns special teams coordinator Amos Jones, who is showing him the coaching ropes. He has quickly learned that coaching is as demanding as playing. “It’s a lot of time involved, a lot of hours and not everyone is cut out for it,” Cribbs said. “Not that they can’t coach, but everybody is not cut out for the hours and the time it takes to put into coaching. That was one of the main important things in you. Coaching’s not for everybody.” An undrafted quarterback out of Kent State, Cribbs became one of the NFL’s most dynamic and dangerous returners. He also played one season each for the New York Jets and Indianapolis Colts. Cribbs last played in 2014 and had considered a comeback before officially retiring last year. Cribbs shares the league record with eight kickoff return touchdowns. He had hoped to land an assistant’s job on Jackson’s staff, but when that opening was filled, he accepted the internship — starting from the bottom, just as he who is 1-31 in two seasons with the Browns. “He was very open to it and we made a decision of, ‘Let’s start on the ground floor and work our way up.’ His reputation precedes itself. He was one of the best return guys in pro football. Plus he’s a Cleveland Brown. He’s one of our own. He told me over a phone call that he had a tremendous passion to get the organization back to winning and that means something to me. “We’ve had several other (former players) reach out, but this ended up being the right fit at the right time for us.” AP SPORTS BRIEFS Former Reds pitchers to lead annual parade CINCINNATI (AP) — Two former Cincinnati Reds pitchers-turnedbroadcasters will lead this year’s Opening Day parade — which won’t actually be on Opening Day. Reds team all-time saves leader Danny Graves and six-season veteran Sam LeCure were named Friday to serve as grand marshals of the 99th Findlay Market Opening Day Parade on April 2. The market’s merchants decided against doing the parade on March 29, when Major League Baseball begins its season and the Reds host the Washington Nationals. They cited conflicts with their Easter weekend business. The parade is a colorful mixture of floats, marching bands, celebrities and politicians. The Reds announced recently that Graves and LeCure will join former Reds Jeff Brantley and Doug Flynn as color commentators for lead broadcasters Marty Brennaman and Jim Day. Recordings of ex-Pilot Flying J head released KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Secret recordings have been released capturing the ex-president of the country’s largest diesel fuel retailer using racial slurs and profanely criticizing his own board of directors and his boss’ football team and fans. The Knoxville News Sentinel reports the recordings made public Thursday are only some of the ones that captured former Pilot Flying J President Mark Hazelwood and a crew of his sales executives using the harsh language. The recordings were sought by USA Today’s Tennessee network. Hazelwood was convicted of conspiracy, wire fraud and witness tampering by a jury who heard the recordings. Pilot Flying J is controlled by the family of Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam and Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam. The Haslams haven’t been charged with any wrongdoing. The governor hasn’t been involved in the company in recent years. AVONDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Martin Truex Jr. won the pole Friday for the NASCAR Cup Series race Sunday at ISM Raceway. The defending series champion turned a lap at 136.945 mph in the No. 78 Furniture Row Racing Toyota in the last of three rounds of qualifying on the mile oval. He edged Kyle Larson in 84-degree afternoon heat for his 16th career pole and second at Phoenix. “We’ve qualified well here in the past, but we’ve been kind of been searching for those last couple spots,” Truex said. “We were fifth here in the fall and that was about all we can do. Just a good game plan and good execution by everybody. Definitely a fun day.” Larson was the fastest in practice and topped the second round for Chip Ganassi Racing. “We’ve been fast here the last few years, so it would be nice to close out the weekend with a win,” Larson said Chase Elliott was third, followed by Tucson driver Alex Bowman, Joey Logano, Denny Hamlin, Kyle Busch, Jamie McMurray, Erik Jones and Kevin Harvick. Harvick has a track-record eight victories and is coming off wins the last two weeks in Atlanta and Las Vegas. “I look at making the final round as an accomplishment for me,” Harvick said. “My cars are always faster than the driver when we come to Phoenix qualifying sessions. Today was another Phoenix qualifying session where I messed it up. I got through 1 and 2, where I had been struggling, good and just got off the brake too soon and got it up the racetrack.” Jimmie Johnson ended up 17th after topping the first round. The seven-time season champion is winless in 26 races, the longest drought of his career. “I’m very optimistic with the speed in the car in that first round,” the four-time Phoenix winner said. �CLASSIFIEDS 6B Sunday, March 11, 2018 Sunday Times-Sentinel LEGALS Legals THE CHESHIRE TOWNSHIP ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2017 IS AVAILABLE FOR PUBLIC VIEWING AT THE NEXT BOARD MEETING SCHEDULED FOR MARCH 14,2018 AT THE TOWNSHIP BUILDING IN KYGER AT 5:00pm. 3/11/18 7KH &KHVKLUH 7RZQVKLS %RDUG RI 7UXVWHHV ZRXOG OLNH WR LQIRUP WKH SXEOLF WKDW WKH UHJXODU VFKHGXOHG PHHWLQJ IRU 7XHVGD\ 0DUFK ��� ���� KDV EHHQ FKDQJHG WR :HGQHVGD\ 0DUFK ��� ���� DW WKH 7RZQ� VKLS EXLOGLQJ LQ .\JHU DW ����SP� ������� EMPLOYMENT Help Wanted General Employment Opportunity Position: Custodian-Evening Shift (Available July 1, 2018) Help Wanted General $$$$$$$$$ BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY Syracuse Village is hiring management, staff, & lifeguards for the London Pool 2018 season.

Alpha Diallo hit a go-ahead jumper with 2:22 left in overtime and fifth-seeded Providence rallied from a 17-point second-half deficit and stunned top-seeded and No. 3 Xavier 75-72 in the conference semifinals on Friday night. “What a win for Providence College and the character of the young men,” Friars coach Ed Cooley said. “I’m proud of them. We played a great team and we’re fortunate to move on. We’re looking forward to whoever the winner of the next game is to prepare and — but these young men, all of them, they played their hearts out and left it out there.” Not bad for a team that a couple of days ago was considered a bubble team for the NCAA Tournament. Two overtime wins in two days has put that to bed. “We never thought about the bubble. We just played with confidence,” said senior forward Rodney Bullock after Providence (21-12) beat Xavier (28-5) for the second time in three meetings. “That’s how we play.” The Friars did that in the final 25 minutes in advancing to the title game against the winner of the semifinals said. “And again I go back to crediting Providence’s defense for that. But, again, it’s a coin flip in terms of who is winning and who is losing. And we’re on the wrong side of the coin.” Providence, which is seeking its fifth straight NCAA Tournament berth, tied the score three times in the final 3:45 of regulation, the last time came when Cartwright hit two free throws with 13 seconds to go to knot the score at 68. After electing not to call a time out, Xavier rushed the ball up the foul and Macura’s layup attempt by blocked by Bullock just before the final horn. The Friars had used 29-12 run to tie the game at 64-all on jumper by Bullock with 3:45 to play.

The games will be available to Facebook users in the U.S. on Facebook Watch, the company’s video feature announced last August, via the MLB Live show page. Facebook said Friday that recorded broadcasts will also be available globally, excluding select international markets. The package, MLB’s first digital-only national broadcast agreement, precludes teams from televising those games on their regional sports networks. The concept is similar to the exclusive package of Sunday night games on ESPN. Facebook, Twitter and Amazon and other tech companies are in a race to Cutest Pet Contest grangeinsurance.com acquire sports streaming rights, which can be lucrative and potentially boost user loyalty. The deal comes at a time when leagues are worrying about cordcutters causing a decrease in viewers among cable television networks. Verizon signed a deal with the NBA to stream eight basketball games on Yahoo, and Amazon paid $50 million to stream NFL games to Prime members last season. The games will be produced by the MLB Network for Facebook Watch, with interactive and social elements that differentiate them from live streaming. Facebook’s first-month schedule includes Philadelphia-New York Mets on April 4, Milwaukee-St. Louis on April 11, Kansas City-Toronto on April 18 and Arizona-Philadelphia on April 26. Facebook had a package of 20 nonexclusive Friday night games last year that began in mid-May and used broadcast feeds from the participating teams.
