A letter was received both in email and mail delivery this week by the commissioners from The Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF). According to the organization’s website, its purposes are to protect the constitutional principle of separation between church and state, and to educate the public on matters relating to nontheism. This is not the ﬁrst time the organization has been involved in action in the region, as FFRF (along with the ACLU) was responsible for the 2013 case involving the removal of a portrait of Jesus in a Jackson County, Ohio, school building. They Prison staff in 2 states treated for exposure to drugs are also involved in a lawsuit currently recating the reciting of the Lord’s Prayer at Parkersburg City Council meetings. The letter dated Aug. 24, states that “A concerned Meigs County resident has reported that each year, the Meigs County Commission issues a National Day of Prayer proclamation and holds a prayer ceremony on the courthouse steps. We understand that the Meigs County Commissioner’s Ofﬁce also leads prayer before Commission meetings.” “We also understand that the Meigs County Commission regularly promotes religion on its ofﬁcial Facebook page,” the letter continues, citing four references to scripture or other items posted in the past year. The letter is signed by Christopher Line, who is identiﬁed as a Patrick O’Reiley Legal Fellow for Freedom From Religion Foundation. Sitting down with the Sentinel on Wednesday afternoon, Commissioners Randy Smith and Tim Ihle addressed the letter. Ihle spoke speciﬁcally regarding the National Day of Prayer event and the proclamation for the event. The National Day of Prayer event is not sponsored by the commissioners or any of the county ofﬁcials, and is held on the steps as are other events throughout the year, stated Ihle. He noted that other groups and organizations hold events at the courthouse, as has been done in the past by See INFRACTIONS | 5 Throwback Thursday: Pomeroy School Band By Andrew Welsh-Huggins Associated Press COLUMBUS, Ohio — Corrections authorities in Ohio and Pennsylvania on Wednesday investigated inmate and staff exposure to drugs and chemicals in what appeared to be unrelated incidents that nevertheless underscored the continuing issue of contraband drugs inside the nation’s prisons and jails. In Pennsylvania, the state prisons were on a lockdown precipitated by 29 employees at 10 prisons requiring treatment in recent weeks from exposure to a yet-unidentiﬁed substance described in some cases as a liquid synthetic drug. The Pennsylvania Department of Corrections announced the step Wednesday, the same day that about a half-dozen staff at Somerset and Albion state prisons reported feeling ill. Symptoms include dizziness, lightheadedness, nausea and skin tingling. In Ohio, prison guards, nurses and inmates were among the nearly 30 people treated for possible drug exposure inside Ross Correctional Institution. The incident began around 9 a.m. Wednesday when an inmate showed signs of a possible drug overdose, said patrol spokesman Lt. Robert Sellers. As ofﬁcers and medical responders arrived, a total of 28 individuals, including 23 guards, four nurses and an inmate, were treated through the administration of naloxone, a drug used to combat overdoses caused by opioids such as heroin or fentanyl, Sellers said. They were taken to Adena Regional Medical Center in Chillicothe for evaluation. At the hospital, Dr. Kirk Tucker said the symptoms were consistent with exposure to fentanyl. He said an inmate was unconscious and not breathing on his own when he was admitted to the hospital Wednesday but was expected to be ﬁne. Most other patients experienced nausea, sweating, numbness, and drowsiness. Tucker said the sickest individuals were those who responded to the inmate’s bedside. One Ohio inmate was treated at the scene and See DRUGS | 5 INDEX Obituaries: 2 TV listings: 2 Business: 3 Opinion: 4 Weather: 5 Sports: 6 Comics: 7 Classifieds: 8 JOIN THE CONVERSATION What’s your take on today’s news?

Recognizing Child Support Awareness Month By Sarah Hawley shawley@aimmediamidwest.com POMEROY — It is a job where people are rarely happy with you, and certainly one where you may not hear “Thank You” very often, but last week Meigs County’s Child Support staff members were recognized by the Meigs County Commissioners. The recognition came as part of Child Support Awareness Month which is August. The Child Support Enforcement Agency (CSEA) staff is led by Larry Byer and is under the Department of Job and Family Services and Director Chris Shank. Staff members at the meeting, in addition to Byer and Shank, included David Rees, Jordan Snoke, Kevin Dugan, Rick Weisenmuller, Terri Smith, Michael Oliver (investigator) and Pat Story (attorney). Unable to attend was Melissa Johnson. Byer expressed his gratitude for the staff and their work to help families in Meigs County. The resolution read by Sarah Hawley | Sentinel A resolution and proclamation were presented in recognition of Child Support Awareness Month during last week’s commissioner meeting. Pictured are Child Support Enforcement Agency staff Larry Byer (director) David Rees, Jordan Snoke, Kevin Dugan, Rick Weisenmuller, Terri Smith, Michael Oliver (investigator), and Pat Story (attorney), Job and Family Services Director Chris Shank, Prosecutor James K.

Commissioner President Randy Smith stated that “through the leadership of the Meigs County Department of Job and Family Services/Child Support Enforcement Division, 2,286 cases are active with 2,541 children served. Nearly 1,000 court cases are held each year and an estimated $2.2 million dollars are being collected and distributed annually to families and children.” The resolution read in part, We recognize that the well-being of Ohio’s children and families relies on adequate ﬁnancial support; and We recognize and com- mend the efforts of those parents who are committed to fulﬁlling their moral, ﬁnancial and legal obligation to provide this support; We acknowledge that an effective child support enforcement system requires the commitment, See AWARENESS | 5 �OBITUARIES/NEWS/TV 2 Thursday, August 30, 2018 Daily Sentinel OBITUARIES PANDORA ELIZABETH COLLINS PHILLIP JAY ‘P.J.’ RICHMOND File photo Paul Doeffinger brings to the stage over 45 years musical experience. Final Hot Summer Nights features Doeffinger Staff Report GALLIPOLIS — The French Art Colony’s 2018 summer series, Hot Summer Nights, will conclude on Thursday evening, featuring, in the Pavilion, the popular local musician, Paul Doefﬁnger. A well-known singer songwriter from Mason County, his fan base is both large and loyal, within the Ohio Valley. His performances are a mix of classic country and rock, as well as his own original music. Doefﬁnger brings to the stage over 45 years musical experience. His mother taught him how to play guitar when he was 13 and his ﬁrst musical performance was in Wheeling, West Virginia, when he was 15. He also performed with a wellknown band in the area, Staffhouse Road, as their lead singer. He mainly does solo work now, but intimated it is challenging, because it’s just you and your guitar and no one else, while on stage, which is something you don’t have when playing in bands. However, he loves the challenge. On Thursday evening, the gates at the Pavilion, on the grounds of the French Art Colony, will open at 6 p.m., with a special menu available. It will feature Bob Garbesi’s smoked pulled pork, Janet Williams’ potato salad, FAC’S baked beans and Susan Brandeberry’s cupcakes. The food is being donated, and will be available to those attending for a donation. Legal beverages will be available for purchase. All proceeds from the entire evening’s event will go to the special fund, to provide for installation of fans in the Pavilion, to make it more comfortable during the hot summer months. The music will begin at 6:30 p.m. Available for sale, during the ﬁnal evening, will be tickets to win a stay at a beachfront Garden City condo, and will be sold until the time of the drawing for the winner on Thursday evening. Tickets are $5 each, or three for $10. In addition, original “Hot Summer Nights” t-shirts can be purchased. All proceeds from both sales will also be used for the purchase of fans for the Pavilion. Admission is $5 per person and is free for FAC members, as a beneﬁt. Thursday evening concludes the 2018 series for Hot Summer Nights, but plans are already underway for the 2019 series of live music in the FAC Pavilion.

Since its inception EPA rethinking air pollution rule for power plants The Associated Press WASHINGTON — The Trump administration is considering rewriting another Obama-era rule controlling hazardous emissions from coal-ﬁred power plants, this one on mercury and other pollutants. Environmental Protection Agency spokeswoman Molly Block said Wednesday that the agency is still preparing its proposal for consideration by the White House’s Ofﬁce of Management and Budget and that there are few details to release. The EPA is looking at whether the 2012 rule on power plant emissions was necessary, among other issues, Block said. The Obama administration rule set limits for emissions of mercury, arsenic and other toxic air pollutants from coal- and oil-ﬁred power plants. The U.S. Energy Information Administration said last year that almost all the country’s coal-ﬁred power plants were now in compliance with the 2012 rule. Rick McDaniel INCOME TAX SERVICES P.O.

Tariffs on imported newsprint nixed in win for US newspapers WASHINGTON (AP) — In a victory for the American newspaper industry, the U.S. International Trade Commission on Wednesday blocked tariffs imposed by the Trump administration on imported newsprint, ﬁnding that American producers weren’t harmed by imports from Canadian paper mills. The newspaper industry had complained that the rising cost of newsprint, typically their secondbiggest expense, made it harder to operate. In July, lawmakers testiﬁed before the ITC that the tariffs were hurting the very paper industry they were supposed to protect. That’s because publishers were responding to the additional costs by reducing the number of pages in their newspapers, thus dampening demand for newsprint, the paper used to make newspapers, books and advertising inserts. Others testiﬁed that the higher cost of newsprint had led newspapers to cut stafﬁng and the number of local events that they cover. “These tariffs were extremely harmful to our regional papers-the lifeblood of our local communities,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., tweeted. “ITC made exactly the right decision to completely eliminate them.

The department had revised the tariffs lower in a decision earlier this month, though newsprint buyers still would have been hit with an antidumping levy of up to 16.88 percent and antisubsidy duties of up to 9.81 percent.

I grew previously cared to admit. up in an age of action ﬁgures and video games and couldn’t possibly see how they could have derived any enjoyment from such seemingly primitive forms of entertainment. My parents may have played their jacks and marbles in a little circle, but they themselves were decidedly square, daddy-o. As I am continually ﬁnding out the deeper I go into adulthood, however, I am far more like both of my parents than I would have previously cared to admit. Our son Max celebrated his 11th birthday this week. It’s nearly impossible to buy presents of any sort for Max, in large part because his autism makes it difﬁcult for him to make decisions. The kid isn’t particularly fond of toys and, if we let him, would be perfectly content watching YouTube videos 12 hours per day. (Ironically, some of his favorite things to watch on YouTube are videos of other kids opening packages that contain toys). In any event, we’ve largely given up on trying to get any sort of input from him regarding the purchase of his gifts. We just go ahead and take a shot in the dark. Max is always gracious about receiving gifts. He opens them, inspects them for a few minutes and then usually — regardless of the magnitude of the gift — goes back to one of his other favorite pastimes, twirling ropes in his hands (autism is a strange disorder indeed, my friends). In any event, this year, my wife and I ﬁgured we had picked out the perfect gift for our son, a Nintendo Classic. When we were young (and although our children don’t believe us, we really were young once), both my wife and I loved playing the old Nintendo video game system. They’ve since re-released the Nintendo, complete with 30 pre-programmed classic games and none of the clunky cartridges (the kind you sometimes had to blow into to get to work) of the old system. Both Max and our daughter Sophie enjoy playing video games on their phones. We ﬁgured they would fall in love with all of the same games we loved as children — Mario Brothers, Tecmo Bowl Football, Pac-Man, Punch Out and all the rest. I would sometimes go days without seeing the rest of my family as I was locked in my room playing Nintendo, trying to beat the hardest levels on the latest game. I envisioned my kids doing the same. We were positively beaming when we handed Max the Nintendo. He took one look at it and said, “What is this?” It’s OK, we ﬁgured. He may not recognize it in the box, but we were sure as soon as we hooked it up to the television, we wouldn’t be able to tear either kid away from the little gray box. And as we hooked it up and the 8-bit graphics came to life on our screen, we saw our children’s faces light up. They were positively giddy as they sat down to play their ﬁrst-ever game of Donkey Kong. It was a magical moment. For about 10 minutes. That’s about how long it took for my kids to come to the same conclusion as I once did about jacks and marbles. Sure, it’s cool for a few minutes, but ultimately can’t compare to the latest and greatest in technology. The games they play on their phones are far more powerful, colorful and challenging than the games on the Nintendo. I’m not disappointed in my children at all; I understand completely. Times have changed and so have kids’ tastes in toys. I can live with that. Besides, all this means is I don’t have to share it with them.

Contact him at dfong@troydailynews.com; follow him on Twitter @thefong THEIR VIEW Gifts that keep on giving One thing my mother taught me, besides never go into the newspaper business, is don’t look a gift horse in the mouth. This is an old saying that means literally if someone gives you a horse, don’t look in its mouth to see what shape its teeth are in. You can tell a lot about the health of a horse by looking at its teeth. Horses don’t like this. Besides learning about the health of the horse, you might also learn a thing or two about your reﬂexes when the horse tries to bite you. But according to my mom, who put more importance on good manners than Emily Post ever dreamt of, looking in the gift horse’s mouth to see if its death is imminent would be a sign of ingratitude. So, to summarize, ingratitude=bad manners=an annoyed horse. Thus, according to transitive law, ingratitude=an annoyed horse. There is a lesson here somewhere but it got lost down the horse’s throat.

A party for my friend Sandy was brought to dead silence when she opened a gift someone had re-given that still had the original card in it. But wait ! There’s more! I once received a gift from someone that was the exact same item I had given her the year before. Needless to say, I was overcome with the depth of the gift-giver’s thoughtfulness and the time she invested in digging it out of the back of her closet. But, due to my mother’s ceaseless training, I had the good manners not to try to look into the horse’s mouth. It was clear I was dealing with the other end of the horse.

EXTENDED FORECAST 8 PM MEIGS CALENDAR OF EVENTS people,’ not the ofﬁce’s temporary occupants.” It is well-settled law that no government entity may use their position to promote a speciﬁc religious viewpoint, and doing so not only violates the First Amendment, but makes citizens feel like outsiders in their own communities. “Religion is inherently divisive. This large-scale government sponsorship and promotion of religious activity is inappropriate and alienating to many members of the very community the board is supposed to be serving,” says FFRF CoPresident Dan Barker. Smith stated that the case law referenced in the letter does not necessarily match up with the speciﬁc situations addressed in the letter, but will be reviewed further. Ihle stated that the commissioners will review the details of the letter and make adjustments deemed necessary and appropriate. FFRF is requesting that the commissioners cease organizing and participating in prayer events, leading prayers at government meetings, and promoting religion on social media. FFRF asks for a response including the steps that the board plans to take to respect the rights of conscience of all Meigs County residents by ceasing its practice of endorsing religion, and Christianity in particular. “For anyone who has been to our ofﬁce or seen our picture in the paper while we are at our desks you have surely seen the banner behind us that says ‘In God We Trust,’” the post reads. “It’s not just a motto. It’s a statement of our faith. Before each weekly board meeting we pray. We pray for and see God’s blessings in Meigs County.” FFRF documented similarly inappropriate postings by the board on its social media platforms. Additionally, FFRF addressed the unconstitutionality of Meigs County’s National Day of Prayer proclamation and ofﬁcial county prayer ceremony on the courthouse steps. The National Day of Prayer is a sectarian event originating with Reverend Billy Graham during his evangelical crusade in Washington, D.C., in 1952. He expressed an openly Christian purpose, seeking an annual prayer proclamation by the president because he wanted “the Lord Jesus Christ” to be recognized across the land. “Government employees can worship, pray, or quote any religious text they wish when acting in their personal capacities. But they are not permitted to provide prestige to their personal religion through the machinery of the government ofﬁce,” writes FFRF’s Patrick O’Reiley Legal Fellow Christopher Line. “The County Commissioners Ofﬁce belongs to ‘We the State Representative Jay Edwards was also at the meeting to present a proclamation in recognition of Child Support Awareness Month.

Last meeting between the teams: Sept. 29, 2017. Southern won 55-14 in Stewart. Bryan Walters | OVP Sports Current head-to-head streak: Meigs freshman Ty Bartrum (4) breaks away from a trio of Gallia Academy defenders during the first half of a Week 1 football contest at Memorial Field in Southern has won 5 straight.

The Eastern volleyball team dropped a twopoint decision in the opening game of Tuesday’s Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division match in Washington County, but won each of the next three games by double digits, sealing the fourgame victory over host Belpre. The host Lady Golden Eagles jumped out to an early lead in the opening game, with Eastern (2-1, 1-0 TVC Hocking) tying the game at eight, 13 and 14, before ﬁnally taking the edge at 15-14. The teams exchanged leads ﬁve more times in the game, with Belpre scoring ﬁve of the ﬁnal six points to take the 27-25 victory. Eastern never trailed in the second game, posting a side-out percentage of 83.3 en route to a 25-12 win. The guests led wire-to-wire in the second game, leading by as many as 13 and settling for the 25-13 victory. The fourth game featured a pair of early lead changes, with Eastern taking the lead for good at 7-6. The Lady Eagles led by as many as 12 in the ﬁnale, ultimately sealing the match with a 25-14 win.

Morrison Gymnasium in Rocksprings, Ohio. Lady Raiders rally past Meigs By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio — It’s never over until it’s over. The River Valley volleyball team overcame match deﬁcits of 1-0 and 2-1, then rallied back from a 7-2 hole in the decisive ﬁfth game to claim an impressive 22-25, 25-19, 19-25, 25-12, 15-11 victory over host Meigs on Tuesday night in the TriValley Conference Ohio Division opener for both programs at Larry R. Morrison Gymnasium. The visiting Lady Raiders (4-1, 1-0 TVC Ohio) notched their fourth consecutive triumph while also doubling last season’s win total in the process, but those achievements were anything but easy in obtaining. The guests let a 22-19 lead in Game 1 get away as the Lady Marauders (2-2, 0-1) answered with six straight points for a 1-0 match advantage, but the Silver and Black retaliated by breaking away from a 15-all tie with a 10-4 run that tied the match at one apiece. There were seven ties and as many lead changes in getting to 17-all during Game 3, but the Maroon and Gold broke away with ﬁve straight points before closing things out with a 3-2 spurt — giving the hosts a 2-1 match advantage. Game 4 was the only time all night that both Meigs junior Maci Hood (6) leaps for a spike attempt during Game 4 of Tuesday night’s TVC Ohio volleyball opener against River Valley at Larry R. Morrison Gymnasium in Rocksprings, Ohio. teams didn’t hold a lead as River Valley broke away from a 1-all tie and twice led by as many as 13 points while evening the match up at two apiece. Both teams traded leads out to a 2-all tie at the start of the decisive ﬁfth game, but the hosts rallied with ﬁve consecutive service points from Madison Fields en route to a 7-2 cushion. Following a River Valley timeout, the guests broke serve and made an 8-1 run that resulted in an 11-10 edge. Meigs man- aged to break serve to knot things up at 11-all, but the guests reeled off the ﬁnal four points to complete the comeback and sneak away with a 3-2 match decision. In all, the ﬁve-game thriller featured 21 ties and 26 lead changes — with the Lady Raiders holding the largest lead of the match in their Game 4 win. Meigs took its largest lead of the match at the end of Game 3. Afterwards, RVHS coach Brent Smith was ecstatic for his troops — mainly in the way they dug in and held their ground when adversity popped up. “Honestly, it’s a special night for these girls. The seniors on this team haven’t been part of too many three-match winning streaks during their careers, more-or-less four,” Smith said. “We knew that Meigs was going to be a tough battle for us, and even when we were down 7-2 in the ﬁfth — I just kept telling the girls to go and take it. “Last year, we would have folded in going down 1-0 and 2-1, or even being down ﬁve points in the ﬁfth game. This year, the girls are playing for each other and they are trusting in their experience together. It’s nice to see the hard work getting rewarded right now.” Conversely, MHS coach Lee Ann King found Tuesday night’s TVC Ohio opener to be a bit of a disappointment — primarily because of the little things that ultimately cost her squad a chance at victory. “I feel that we just didn’t play up to our potential. We didn’t hit the ball well, we didn’t pass the ball well and we got down on ourselves over the course of the night,” King said. “We showed some ﬁght early in that ﬁrst game, but you could tell that we were the younger team as the night went on.

The Bengals on Tuesday agreed to contract extensions with Atkins and Dunlap, who were entering the final years on their deals. Steelers poised to retain reign in AFC North BALTIMORE (AP) — As long as Mike Tomlin is standing on the Pittsburgh sideline, watching Ben Roethlisberger pass to Antonio Brown or give the ball to Le’Veon Bell, the Steelers will be favored to win the AFC North. It makes no difference that Randy Fichtner is the new offensive coordinator, or that Roethlisberger turned 36 in March. The Steelers are going to score points, and they’re going to play their best against division rivals in big games. Baltimore knows this all too well. Two years ago, Bell rushed for 122 yards and Roethlisberger connected with Brown for a last-minute touchdown in a 31-27 victory that clinched the AFC North title. Last December, Roethlisberger threw for 506 yards and two TDs, Bell scored twice and the Steelers beat the Ravens 39-38. Baltimore hopes to turn things around this year, but if the Ravens are to break a run of three straight years without a playoff appearance, it will likely be as a wild card. There are, by the way, two other teams in the division. Cincinnati and Cleveland deserve mention only because one will likely ﬁnish in third place and the other will occupy the cellar. In Cincinnati, coach Marvin Lewis got a twoyear extension despite his NFL-record 0-7 mark in the playoffs. After two straight losing seasons, he’s getting a 16th chance to ﬁnally get it right. Cleveland is coming off an 0-16 embarrassment and can only hope to be respectable. Since the creation of the current AFC North in 2002, the Browns are the only team never to ﬁnish in ﬁrst place. Some things to know about the AFC North: FOR WHOM THE BELL TOILS: Pittsburgh and its “Killer Bs” — Roethlisberger, Brown and Bell — have reached the playoffs four straight years. Yet all those trips to January have turned into just three postseason wins and no trips to the Super Bowl. While the rejuvenated Roethlisberger believes he can play until he nears 40, this may be his last legitimate shot to win a third championship. Bell is likely in his ﬁnal year in black-and-gold after being unable to come to terms with the club on a new long-term deal. Bell is one of the most versatile backs in the league and not easily replaceable. He won’t lack for motivation. He believes he’s a unique talent and wants the paycheck to prove it. Pittsburgh’s best chance to return to the Super Bowl will rely heavily on having Bell at the top of his game and will certainly take the tradeoff of seeing Bell elsewhere in 2019 if it means hoisting the Lombardi Trophy in February. FAREWELL TOUR: Ozzie Newsome is the only general manager the Ravens have ever had, running the show in Baltimore since the team arrived from Cleveland before the 1996 season.
