Bob First told the commissioners that in August 1967 the RC&D formed serving a five county region. In 1983, it expanded to add four additional counties, including Meigs. The Buckeye Hills RC&D is a tax exempt nonprofit organization which was created with the overall goal of improving economic conditions through the development, conservation and proper use of natural resources. The major concerns of the RC&D Council consist of land use planning, community development, rural fire protection, business development and job creation, and recreation and tourism. In 2011, the RC&D lost federal funding through the USDA, when Congress terminated the funding nationwide. The council has continued to operate and is working to secure local sources of funds for long-term sustainability. Programs through the RC&D include a revolving loan fund, Ohio Mineland Partnership, rural fire protection, RC&D Endowment Fund through the Marietta Community Foundation, assistance for local units of government and grant management. Over the 50 years of the agency, more than 500 projects have been completed in the nine-county area served. The core areas for the projects are natural resources protection, water quality and water quantity improvement, community and economic development and tourism and water-based recreation development. Since expanding to Meigs County in 1983, projects completed, said First, included dry hydrants for rural fire protection, abandoned mine land reclamation, work in the Leading Creek Water Shed and at the Soil and Water conservation area, an agriculture land use report and warm season grass demonstration. The commissioners are expected to consider a resolution recognizing the 50th anniversary during an upcoming meeting. A 50th anniversary celebration is set for Aug. 17 at the office in Marietta.

OH SUN and WV SUN have helped more than a dozen communities across their states develop solar co-ops. Collectively the programs helped create or sustain seventy solar jobs last year. “I am excited to work with Gallia County residents to help them learn about solar and how affordable it has become,” said Luke Sulfridge, OH SUN Program Director. “The co-op is a great opportunity to help create new jobs in the region while making each homeowner more selfsufficient.” Ohio Valley area residents interested in joining the co-op can sign up at the co-op website. The co-op is open to both Ohioans and West Virginians across the Ohio Valley area. Joining the co-op is not a commitment to purchase panels. Co-op members selected Solar Holler out of West Virginia through a competitive bidding process. The installer was selected in part due to a training program that is retraining former coal miners to perform the installations. Homeowners and small businesses have the option to purchase panels individually based on the installer’s group rate. By going solar as a group and choosing a single installer, participants can save up to 2 percent off the cost of their system. �NEWS Sunday Times-Sentinel Sunday, July 16, 2017 3A GALLIA, MEIGS BRIEFS Editor’s Note: The Meigs and Gallia Briefs will only list event information that is open to the public and will be printed on a space-available basis.

After not participating for a long time, members decided to honor the 150th anniversary of the founding of the Grange with the float. Keith Ashley was to be the designer and main builder of the float with other members assisting in the final touches. A discussion on the President’s plan to terminate NAFTA was discussed. Members felt that treaty was never fair to the United States and led to the loss of many manufacturing jobs to Mexico where there were no EPA regulation and minimum wage requirements. The legislative agent found information that revealed that Palestine, a country that no one recognizes as legal, is being given U.S. foreign aid. Then part of that aid is used to provide pensions to widows and orphans of suicide bombers. The members passed a resolution asking that all foreign aid cease to countries providing such pensions. Due to the increase in deaths from drugs, Ohio’s county coroner’s budgets are stretched to the limit to determine the cause of deaths for this problem. The coroner’s association is advocating yet another increase in the exorbitant cost of death records to provide funds for this. Members felt that nothing would be achieved by making such determinations of death and that an increase in the cost of death certificates was a punishment on those who had nothing in the problem. A resolution was passed opposing any increase in the huge costs of death certificates and rather see a fee or fine assessed on those who are being treated for overdoses or die from them. This would be a fair way. A degree day will be held at Silverton Grange.

Those wishing to see the degrees were invited to attend. Other legislative discussions involved the problem with ECOT overcharging the state. A review of the Ohio Constitution is occurring. But the most concern was over the new Ohio budget. Currently, 52 percent of all the budget is going to Medicaid due to our governor’s actions. Other important program are being injured by the funding of the program. Taxpayers cannot afford to keep giving away to these programs no matter how good or how needed they are. Also, the definitions of those who qualify have been greatly liberalized causing more and more to apply for Medicaid.

We have seen the future when it comes to the best jobs to have. Unsurprisingly, they are almost all generated by the digital age in which we live, and the field of health care that allows us to continue living provided you can afford it — but that’s a story for another day. The business magazine Kiplinger’s online edition announced its 10 Best Jobs for the Future last week. As the magazine’s Stacy Rapacon points out, “best” for Kiplinger’s takes into account such factors as growth, salary and education required for such positions. “Worst” is exactly the opposite: small or no growth projections, low-paying and grimmest of all, jobs increasingly being replaced by technology and consolidation of Kevin services, requiring less people to do Kelly the task at hand. Contributing So what are the “best” jobs if you columnist follow Kiplinger’s criteria? For 2017, they include app developer and computer systems analyst if you’re inclined toward that line of work. In medically-related specialties, there are nurse practitioner, physical therapist, health services manager, physician’s assistant and dental hygienist. Also making Kiplinger’s best list are market research analyst, personal finance adviser and speech language pathologist. From an armchair perspective, these jobs offer a glimpse of where the market is going for the This year’s list of foreseeable future and worst jobs for the how increasingly what future is perhaps we considered science more revealing about fiction a few decades what’s happening in ago has become today’s reality. Think our world. of it: developing applications and programs for telecommunication devices. Back in the ’70s I recall that was all out of the daily comic strip Dick Tracy and its two-way radio/TV wristwatch. We kind of knew then that someday such a contraption, or something like it, would come into being, even become part of everyday life, like on “The Jetsons.” But because for some of us the ’70s still aren’t all that long ago (and we were still using rotary dial phones), it’s amazing to see that momentary flight of fancy become a fact — and a major source of employment. We all know the boom in medical jobs is the result of a changing health care system and a longer-living population. Advancement of technology in the field requires staff trained to operate the equipment and interpret the results. Personal finance helps us pay for our share of the cost, market research tells us (and manufacturers) where to spend what’s left, and speech pathology — go figure, you have to specialize in something. This year’s list of worst jobs for the future is perhaps more revealing about what’s happening in our world. Textile machine worker, photo processor, metal and plastic machine operator, and furniture finisher are all jobs increasingly being replaced by automation and advances in product. Also on the no-growth list are such positions as radio/TV announcer, floral designer, gaming cashier and door-to-door salesperson, along with elected legislator. “It’s an ugly time to get into politics,” Kiplinger’s concludes. No kidding, especially if you’re trying to figure out what to do about health care. If you’re entering college this fall, the magazine recommends you skip such majors as exercise and animal sciences, anthropology, radio/TV/film production, graphic design (for print sources), photography (unless you want to freelance) and yes, even culinary arts. Little or no future (or bucks) in those fields, they say. Instead, focus on aerospace, software, finance and economics, information security and nursing if you’re in it for the long run and future financial status. Oh yeah, and be advised you may have to hire one of those personal money advisers to help you figure out how to pay off the college debt incurred in obtaining those positions. The reports are well-intentioned, informative and helpful in ensuring that your future earnings are commensurate with your job satisfaction. Kiplinger’s is performing a service for job-seekers and college students. What it doesn’t gauge is your own happiness with what you’re doing is perhaps just as important, if not as tangible as a bank account or retirement plan. Many years ago I asked my father if he was ever concerned with accumulating wealth, and he told me he was content in providing a comfortable existence for my mother, his children and himself. And working with his hands, building and making things, from erecting houses to producing his own wines, gave him all of the satisfaction he’d ever need. I’m hardly in a position to offer career advice, but here goes. Do what you like and if not, find something that does. If it pays well, great. More See KELLY | 7A THEIR VIEW Opioids are under attack Government now is on the offensive The following editorial appeared in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on Thursday, July 14: Two announcements from the federal government represent progress in the fight against opioids. On Monday, the Food and Drug Administration said it will require drug manufacturers to better educate physicians about the painkillers. On Tuesday, the Justice Department announced a $35 million settlement with Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals, a company charged with looking the other way when it had reason to believe some of its opioids were landing on the black market. If the tide of the epidemic has not been turned, the battle at least is joined. In addition to the contributions of federal agencies, the states and local governments are becoming increasingly aggressive against drug dealers, manufacturers and the insurance companies that limit treatment for substance abuse. Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro has been calling on insurers to make sure they adequately cover addiction treatment, make it easy for people to access that treatment and better cover alternatives, such as physical therapy, that can reduce the need for painkillers. Ohio and other states have sued drug companies, alleging they fueled the epidemic by underplaying or misrepresenting the drugs’ danger. There’s more to come. Shapiro last month said he is part of a bipartisan coalition of attorneys general that is using “investigative tools, including subpoenas for documents and testimony, to deter- mine the appropriate course of action.” Pharmaceutical companies should regard the Justice Department’s settlement with Mallinckrodt as a shot across the bow. The agreement, described as the first with a manufacturer tied to the opioid crisis, carried more than a stiff financial cost. It requires the company to begin tracking its drugs as they move through the supply chain into the hands of consumers. That obligation, if required of other manufacturers and suppliers as well, should help to dampen what seems to be a free flow of drugs. Physicians represent another potential choke point. If people aren’t prescribed opioids, they can’t become addicted and move on to related drugs, such as heroin. Last year, Pennsylvania restricted the prescription of opioids in emergency departments and to juveniles and ramped up physician training. The FDA’s expanded education mandate is another welcome step. The FDA already requires drugmakers to provide training to physicians about extendedrelease opioids. Now, they’ll have to offer the training about fast-acting opioids, too, and provide information about pain management and nondrug therapies (some of the same ones that Shapiro wants insurance companies to cover). Physicians don’t have to accept the training, but they should. One wonders why physicians don’t learn enough about the dangers of opioids in medical school. Addiction is not a moral failing. The failing would be if government and other parties did not marshal all available resources against the scourge. Increasingly, we are seeing what Shapiro has called a “multidisciplinary approach.” TODAY IN HISTORY call Israel, the Palestinians and others in the THOUGHT FOR TODAY region to a peace conference.

At the SWCD Conservation Area If you want to avoid the pavement and crowds in town this summer, consider taking a short trip to the Meigs SWCD Conservation Area where more than two miles of hiking and walking trails await. The Conservation Area, created in 2003, is located on New Lima Road in between the Meigs County communities of Rutland and Harrisonville. At this time of year, the area is chock-full of wildlife and wild flowers. The Pauline Atkins Trail is approximately 1.5 miles long and loops up along the base of the old coal mining highwall; it is moderately challenging in places as it climbs or descends the hill. The Atkins Trail, created in 2006, passes through some meadows and different types of woodlots, and In the is named in honor of former Meigs Open SWCD Supervisor Pauline H. Atkins Jim who passed away on Jan. 2, 2006. Freeman The trail connects to the Wetland Trail, and a quarter-mile-long shortcut trail bisects the Atkins Trail. The Wetland Trail, opened in 2015, starts at the parking lot and passes around the wetland and then connects to the Atkins Trail a half-mile later. The crushed gravel, quarter-mile walking path loops around the field next to the shelterhouse; while there check out the old foundation of what used to be Oscar Chase’s Cannery. I just mowed a new temporary path (you could call it the Coneflower Trail) that cuts through a planted prairie across the road from the parking lot – this path features plenty of pollinator-friendly plants like Bee Balm, Common and Swamp Milkweed, Butterfly Weed, Purple and Gray Coneflowers, to name a few, mixed in amongst the prairie grasses like Indian Grass and Big Bluestem. I would recommend early morning or evening while it is somewhat cool and the birds are more active. Park in the parking lot and walk directly across New Lima Road to the beginning of the trail.

One shot back, in second place, was the team of Richard Mabe, Cliff Gordon, Glenn Long and John Williams. In third place, with a 10-under par 60, was the foursome of Steve Safford, Larry Davis, Russ Wood and J.J. Hemsley. The closest to the pin winners were Dale Miller on the ninth hole and Carl Stone on No. 14.

The Blue Devils are currently conducting open fields until the beginning of mandatory practices, which begin on Aug. 1, and even worked with Rio Grande personnel earlier this summer. Camden hopes the growth of Gallia Academy soccer indeed continues, and said he will do his part to ensure that it does. “You hope that the kids that are here now saw that success and can spin off of it as well. There were a ton of people at the games last year and that was great to see. I have big shoes to fill too. Coach Isberner had a great program built. But I don’t want to maintain it. I want to make it bigger,” he said. “It takes a village to make this whole thing work. Not just one or two people.

But he lost to Novak Djokovic in the 2014 and 2015 finals. Here comes another chance. Federer would be the oldest man to win Wimbledon in the Open era, which dates to 1968; as it is, he’s the oldest finalist since Ken Rosewall was 39 in 1974. “I mean, I don’t see anything that would indicate really Roger is getting older or anything like that,” said Berdych, who wore sneakers with a silhouette of Djokovic’s face on the tongue because his own usual shoes were uncomfortable. “He’s just proving his greatness in our sport.” Also noteworthy: This is Federer’s second major final of 2017. After losing in the Wimbledon semifinals last year, he took the rest of 2016 off to let his surgically repaired left knee heal. He came back fit and refreshed and won the Australian Open in January for his record-extending 18th Grand Slam title and first anywhere in 4½ years. “Giving your body rest from time to time is a good thing, as we see now,” Federer said. “And I’m happy it’s paying off because for a second, of course, there is doubts there that maybe one day you’ll never be able to come back and play a match on Centre Court at Wimbledon. But it happened, and it’s happened many, many times this week.” And most of the 15,000 or so people in attendance were pulling for him.

He has, however, been in regular contact with Isberner about feedback from coaching at the high-school level — and has been “very involved in feeding from” the University of Rio Grande programs. In fact, his two assistant coaches —Courtney Young and Callum Cobb —both played for the RedStorm. Camden claimed his assistants “will greatly help with the technical side”, as he prepares the new-look Blue Devils for playing in new positions and formations. The Blue Devils graduated nine seniors from last season’s squad — and also were impacted by the regular one-year foreign exchange program. Unofficially, GAHS had 13 players from last season which will not be on the pitch this year. “Xs and Os, I will have no problem. In soccer, the big thing with formations is right down the spine (middle of the pitch). You want your best players down the spine to help deviate anything that’s going on. Whether it’s a striker, midfielder, or your center backs. You want all of that to be a constant of some of your best players,” said Camden. “It’s going to be different for a lot of these kids, because we graduated so many and even lost two to foreign exchange. A lot of kids will be in new roles that they haven’t been in before, but they have to learn new positions. A lot of them are comfortable with what they have played in the past, but I’m looking at some different formations that we may have to go to.” Camden also expects the female Blue Devils on the co-ed club to step up. “We have a lot of young ladies that will be competing for spots. We are a co-ed team and we play a boys schedule, so the physicality of the game will be different, but the young ladies on this team are in the game and have not shown any backdown,” he said. “They are wanting to play like anybody else and they want to fight for everything.” Camden said his transition since his hiring From page 1B Southern hosts South Gallia, Belpre, Trimble and Miller for its first outing, while Wahama, Waterford, Eastern and Federal Hocking are the other half. South Gallia plays its host matches at Cliffside Golf Club in Gallipolis —with Wahama, Belpre, Eastern and Southern playing the Rebels on Tuesday, Aug. 29 and Waterford, Trimble, Miller and Federal Hocking making the trek two days later (Thursday, Aug. 31). Federal Hocking, which did not field a team a year ago, hosts its home league matches the final week of play —with Wahama, Belpre, Eastern and South Gallia on Tuesday, Sept. 12 and Waterford, Trimble, Miller and Southern playing on the final day (Thursday, Sept. 14). There are 10 total league matches played for each school — and any makeup matchups will be played the week of Sept. 18. Waterford won last season’s championship with a record of 13-1, losing only at Eastern by a mere three strokes (178-181). Eastern at 12-2 and Southern at 11-3 were the immediate runnersup, as Belpre and Miller tied for fourth at 6-8 — while Wahama was next at 5-9. Trimble’s tally of 2-12 and South Gallia going 1-13 were the other two official league marks. Meanwhile, Meigs captured its fourth TVCOhio title in the last five seasons, including only one share — with Vinton County three years ago. The Marauders went a perfect 42-0 in the division — as a result of winning all seven matches with each individual triumph counting as a 6-0 mark in the league standings. Athens finished second at 33-9, followed by Alexander at 28-14. Vinton County finished fourth at 20-22, followed by Wellston at 17-25. Nelsonville-York was sixth at 3-39, while River Valley — which fielded just three golfers all season — went 0-42. River Valley — at Cliffside Golf Club on Tuesday, Aug. 15 — and Meigs — at Meigs County Golf Course on Wednesday, Aug. 23 — host the second and third TVC-Ohio matches respectively.

Will face Cilic for 8th title LONDON (AP) — They love their history around these parts and they love Roger Federer and, above all, they love watching him make history. Now he stands one victory from an unprecedented eighth Wimbledon men’s singles championship after qualifying for his 11th appearance in the final, breaking a record he already held. Just weeks from turning 36, and a father of four, Federer continued his resurgent season and unchallenged run through this fortnight at the All England Club by conjuring up just enough brilliance to beat 2010 runner-up Tomas Berdych 7-6 (4), 7-6 (4), 6-4 in the semifinals Friday. “It’s great, but it doesn’t give me the title quite yet. That’s why I came here this year,” Federer said. “I’m so close now, so I just got to stay focused.” He has won every set he’s played in six matches, and while he did not exactly dominate against the 11th-seeded Berdych, Federer was never in much trouble. On Sunday, Federer will face 2014 U.S. Open champion Marin Cilic, who reached his first Wimbledon final by eliminating 24thseeded Sam Querrey of the U.S. 6-7 (6), 6-4, 7-6 (3), 7-5 with the help of 25 aces and some terrific returning. “This is his home court,” Cilic said about Federer, “(the) place where he feels the best and knows that he can play the best game.” Since equaling Pete Sampras and William Renshaw (who Golf �SPORTS Sunday Times-Sentinel Sunday, July 16, 2017 3B 2017 OVP AREA FOOTBALL SCHEDULES Point Pleasant Big Blacks Date Opponent Aug. 25 vs Mingo Central Sept. 1 at James Monroe Sept. 8 at Warren Sept. 15 at Herbert Hoover Sept. 22 vs Mount View Sept. 29 at Parkersburg South Oct. 6 at Bluefield Oct. 13 vs Meigs Oct. 20 vs Man Oct. 27 vs Westside Time 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7 pm 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 Wahama White Falcons Date Opponent Aug. 25 vs Ravenswood Sept. 1 vs Waterford Sept. 8 at Southern Sept. 15 at Belpre Sept. 22 vs Federal Hocking Sept. 29 vs Trimble Oct. 6 a t Eastern Oct. 13 at South Gallia Oct. 20 vs Miller Nov. 3 at Buffalo Time 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7 pm 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 Hannan Wildcats Date Aug. 25 Sept. 1 Sept. 8 Sept. 15 Sept. 29 Oct. 6 Oct. 13 Oct. 20 Oct. 27 Nov. 3 Time 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 Opponent vs Montcalm at Green vs Manchester at Hundred vs Jenkins (KY) at Beallsville vs Paden City at Gilmer County at Phelps (KY) vs Cameron Gallia Academy Blue Devils Date Opponent Aug. 25 at Meigs Sept. 2 at River Valley Sept. 8 vs Jackson Time 7:30 7:30 7 pm Sept. 15 Sept. 22 Sept. 29 Oct. 6 Oct. 13 Oct. 20 Oct. 27 vs Chesapeake vs Portsmouth at Fairland vs Coal Grove at Rock Hill vs Ironton at South Point 7 pm 7 pm 7 pm 7 pm 7 pm 7 pm 7 pm River Valley Raiders Date Opponent Aug. 25 at Eastern Sept. 2 vs Gallia Academy Sept. 8 vs South Point Sept. 15 at Nelsonville-York Sept. 22 vs Meigs Sept. 29 at Wellston Oct. 6 vs Alexander Oct. 13 at Vinton County Oct. 20 vs Athens Oct. 27 at Waverly Time 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7 pm South Gallia Rebels Date Opponent Aug. 25 vs Sciotoville East Sept. 1 vs Federal Hocking Sept. 8 at Trimble Sept. 15 vs Manchester Sept. 22 vs Eastern Sept. 29 at Belpre Oct. 6 at Waterford Oct. 13 vs Wahama Oct. 20 vs Southern Oct. 27 at Miller Time 7:30 TBA 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 Meigs Marauders Date Aug. 25 Sept. 2 Sept. 8 Sept. 15 Sept. 22 Sept. 29 Oct. 6 Oct. 13 Time 7:30 7 pm 7 pm 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 Opponent vs Gallia Academy vs St. Clairsville at Logan vs Vinton County at River Valley vs Nelsonville-York at Athens at Point Pleasant Oct. 20 Oct. 27 at Wellston vs Alexander 7:30 7:30 Southern Tornadoes Date Opponent Aug. 26 at Portsmouth Notre Dame Sept. 1 vs Frontier Sept. 8 vs Wahama Sept. 15 at Miller Sept. 22 vs Belpre Sept. 29 at Federal Hocking Oct. 6 at Trimble Oct. 13 vs Waterford Oct. 20 at South Gallia Oct. 28 vs Eastern Time 7pm 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 TBA 7:30 7:30 7:30 7 pm Eastern Eagles Date Aug. 25 Sept. 1 Sept. 8 Sept. 15 Sept. 22 Sept. 29 Oct. 6 Oct. 13 Oct. 20 Oct. 28 Time 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7 pm Opponent vs River Valley at Miller at Green vs Federal Hocking at South Gallia vs Waterford vs Wahama at Trimble vs Belpre at Southern Marshall Thundering Herd Date Opponent Sept. 2 vs Miami (OH) Sept. 9 at North Carolina State Sept. 16 vs Kent State Sept. 30 at Cincinnati Oct. 7 a t Charlotte Oct. 14 vs Old Dominion Oct. 20 at Middle Tennessee Oct. 28 vs Florida International Nov. 3 at Florida Atlantic Nov. 11 vs Western Kentucky Nov. 18 at Texas San Antonio Nov. 25 vs Southern Mississippi Time 6:30 6 pm 6:30 TBA 6 pm 2:30 7 pm 2:30 6 pm 6:30 TBA 2:30 Ohio State great sues university over likenesses COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — One of Ohio State’s most famous football stars sued the university Friday over a marketing program he says used athletes’ images without permission and robbed them of compensation. Linebacker Chris Spielman filed the antitrust lawsuit in federal court in Columbus on behalf of current and former Ohio State football players. The complaint targets Ohio State marketing programs and contracts that promote the university using likenesses of athletes, including a Hondasponsored program of 64 banners hung around Ohio Stadium featuring photos of former players. In addition to Spielman, some of the other Ohio State greats whose pictures appear on those banners include running back Archie Griffin, who won the Heisman Trophy in 1974 and 1975; lineman Jim Stillwagon, who played on the 1968 national championship team; and Mike Doss, a safety who played on the 2002 nation- al championship team. All are among the athletes Spielman is suing on behalf of, said Brian Duncan, a Columbus attorney who represents Spielman. The lawsuit names Ohio State and talent management giant IMG as defendants and names Honda and Nike as coconspirators. Nike is targeted for its “Legends of the Scarlet and Gray” vintage jersey licensing program and other apparel contracts with Ohio State. The lawsuit accuses the university and the companies of “unjust and monopolistic behaviors” and asks for compensation above $75,000, as See OHIO | 7B Bringing the beach to you one cup at a time.

(AP) — Lamar Jackson didn’t start last season thinking about winning the Heisman Trophy. It just ended up that way. Of course the Louisville quarterback had a lot to do with outcome, thanks to his dizzying array of open-field moves and downfield throws. Jackson figures it’s a good approach to start this year, too, even with the chance to become only the second player to repeat as a Heisman winner. “I love the game of football,” Jackson said Thursday during the Atlantic Coast Conference’s preseason media days. “I didn’t think I would win the Heisman Trophy — it just happened, just playing football. And that’s what I’m doing this year. “I’m trying to win games and win a national championship. That’s the biggest thing to me.” Jackson, a 6-foot3, 211-pound junior from Pompano Beach, Florida, was a one-man offense for the Cardinals. He threw for 3,543 yards and 30 touchdowns with nine interceptions while ranking second in the ACC in rushing with 1,571 yards to go with a league-best 21 TDs on the ground and rank fifth nationally. Now comes the challenge of following up on all that production, and doing it with the “I love the game of football. I didn’t think I would win the Heisman Trophy — it just happened, just playing football. And that’s what I’m doing this year.” — Lamar Jackson, Louisville quarterback Louisville’s Lamar Jackson stands in the pocket during the Cardinals’ victory at Marshall, on September 24. pressure that arrives the moment someone hoists that famous trophy presented to college football’s top player. While the Heisman has been around since 1935, there’s only been one player to win twice: Ohio State running back Archie Griffin in 1974 and 1975. Jackson knows all about it. Asked about that history, Jackson immediately brought up a conversation he had with Griffin since win- ning last year’s honor. “He said, ‘I’m the only person that’s done it,’ something like that,” Jackson said. “But he just talked to me, saying, ‘You’ve got to play harder this year because they’re going to be coming after you.’” That explains why coach Bobby Petrino said the coaching staff started working in the spring to expand Jackson’s game. That included getting him “comfortable” with taking the snap under center instead of the shotgun, where Jackson did so much of his damage last year. Jackson said the trickiest part has been dropping back quickly so that he doesn’t get tripped up by an offensive lineman stepping back against an oncoming rusher. “The best thing about Lamar is it was never an issue of taking the snap, so he could always take the snap,” Petrino said. “It was just getting used Alex Hawley | OVP Sports to the footwork, getting to the right mesh point to help the running back out. And I think it’ll help us be a harder team to defend. I really believe that. “But he worked hard on his progression reads. He took a lot of pride out on the practice field, understanding the coverages, what the safeties are doing, and going through his progression. He also worked real hard on his footwork, making sure he gets set, gets his back leg under his hip, and when he does that and stands tall, he’s a very, very accurate thrower.” It’s hard to imagine Jackson can do even more than he did last season, when he set a league record by averaging 393.4 yards of total offense to go with an ACC record for rushing yardage by a quarterback. Along the way, he had an ACC single-game record of 610 total yards against Syracuse and then thrust himself into the national Heisman discussion by accounting for five touchdowns in a September rout of highly ranked Florida State. And yet, defenders expect Jackson will have some new tricks in 2017. “Shifty, fast — he’s just an all-around great athlete,” North Carolina State senior defensive end Bradley Chubb said. “No matter how hard you try to prepare for it, he’s going to bring out something new when you’re playing him.” FOR MORE LOCAL SPORTS COVERAGE, VISIT MYDAILYTRIBUNE.COM 820 East Main St. - Pomeroy, OH 45769 FOR All YOUR INSURANCE NEEDS FARMOWNER FARM AUTO HOMEOWNER PERSONAL AUTO MOBILE HOMEOWNER DWELLING FIRE INLAND MARINE PERSONAL UMBRELLA Reed & Baur Insurance A2Z SANITATION 820 East Main St. Pomeroy, OH 45769 Portable Toilet Rental & 740 992 3600 www.reedbaur.com Septic Tank Cleaning Jessica Newell Vice President 877-696-8741 Proudly Representing BUCKEYE INSURANCE GROUP 60728224 60727242 �SPORTS Sunday Times-Sentinel Sunday, July 16, 2017 5B OVP SPORTS BRIEFS Meigs football golf scramble MASON, W.Va. — The Meigs Marauder football team will host a golf scramble on Saturday, July 22, at Riverside Golf Course.

(AP) — Matt Kenseth knows his NASCAR career will soon fade to black. But the same week he was given a pink slip by Joe Gibbs Racing, Kenseth hit the road for a Metallica concert instead of pounding the pavement to find a ride in 2018. “Actually made me feel 20 again for about four hours, which was pretty fun,” Kenseth said. If Kenseth actually was 20, he’d be an in-demand driver for a Cup Series rapidly undergoing a changing of the guard. Young is cool. And for a sport desperately angling to hook a new generation of fans, 20-something drivers such as Chase Elliott, Kyle Larson and Erik Jones could lead the charge into the next decade and beyond. Some of that evolution comes at the expense of veteran drivers such as Kenseth, the 2003 Cup champion and a two-time Daytona 500 champion, who got the official news this week he was out at JGR at the end of the season. The 21-year-old Jones will take Kenseth’s job in the No. 20 Toyota. Jones is on a one-year loaner contract to Gibbs’ sister team Furniture Row Racing, and Gibbs had to put Jones somewhere in 2018. Kenseth’s fate had been in limbo — though it seemed obvious Jones was being groomed for the ride — and Gibbs made the transaction complete, leaving the 45-year-old driver without a car next year. “I’m just glad they finally put it out so I don’t have to pretend anymore,” Kenseth said at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. “Everybody can ask you about it, everybody can move on and get back to racing.” Kenseth, who qualified third at New Hampshire, said Friday he had no hard feelings toward the organization and has no concerns about his future. He also has no timetable for a decision but there are few options. The best bet could be a one-year landing spot at Hendrick Motorsports driving the No. 88 Chevrolet. Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s ride will be open once he retires at the end of the season. Team owner Rick Hendrick has promising prospect William Byron, a 19-year-old Xfinity Series driver, and could consider Alex Bowman following a solid stint subbing last season for the injured Earnhardt. Seven-time champion Jimmie Johnson said sponsorship dollars would likely dictate who gets the coveted ride. Johnson, who will have a vote on his new teammate, also said Kenseth has the resume that will earn him a ride somewhere next season. “Matt’s just too good,” he said. “The guy can win races and championships and that won’t be overlooked. But I do feel Matt’s at a point in his career where he just won’t take any ride.” Kenseth has won 16 races over five seasons with JGR and is NASCAR’s oldest full-time driver.

(AP) — Kyle Larson has made a habit of flunking NASCAR inspection. Knocked from the top of the points standings this week because of an inspection failure, Larson was stripped of his pole Friday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway and had his winning time tossed out for yet another infraction. He will start at the rear of the field in Sunday’s Cup race. Martin Truex Jr. will lead the field to green for the first time this season. “Not the way we wanted to get our first pole of the year but looking forward to starting up front,” Truex said. Larson’s time was disallowed because of an unapproved rear deck fin lid. NASCAR said there would be no additional penalties. He had raced to the top of the field without his suspended crew chief, turning a lap of 133.324 mph to win his fourth pole of the season. Larson’s team was penalized 35 points this week by NASCAR, erasing what had been a one-point advantage over Truex in the driver standings. Crew chief Chad Johnston was suspended for Ohio give JGR three drivers in the top 10. Kenseth, Busch and Hamlin are again all chasing Truex. Truex has three of wins driving for — Kyle Larson, Furniture Row — which NASCAR driver shares a technical alliance with JGR — while the Gibbs drivers remain winless. “It’s the biggest ques“It’s really cool to get three races because of a tion of the universe right rear brake cooling assem- the pole the first week now, probably, which is back after the penalty,” bly that did not meet why the 78 is outperhe said. standards. forming the house cars, No so fast. “I wish I could have so we’re just as confused Truex has the pole him on the box on Sunand disgruntled by it as day, but we will be strong and the rest of the field moved up a spot.

Kenseth, 11th in the standings in his 18th Cup season, said he knew for about a year he could be on the way out at JGR. “I feel like we did a lot of great things,” Kenseth said. “I don’t think there’s anything to be bitter about or feel bad about. We’re both living up to the agreements we made.” Outside of the 88, quality rides are slim for 2018. “I hope to race next year,” Kenseth said. “I still enjoy racing. I still feel like I could be an asset to somebody, so I hope so.” His other options include a bunch of maybes: Hendrick could cut ties with underachieving Kasey Kahne in the No. 5 and Stewart-Haas Racing may have two openings if Danica Patrick and Kurt Busch do not return.

There isn’t anybody else in the lineup that I can think of.” That includes Larson, a dirt tracker from California who will race anything at any time. Larson turned the fastest qualifying lap for Sunday’s race at New Hampshire before his time was disallowed for an inspection failure. “A distant second,” Harvick said. “Dirt racing is great, but they don’t have the fanbase that a NASCAR-type fanbase does to help elevate him because most of those people aren’t going to go to a NASCAR race.” Kenseth was once considered one of NASCAR’s hottest young drivers.

Cleveland begins a three-game series against the Athletics on Friday. “Better, better,” Francona said. “A little tired, but that’ll come.” The 58-year-old Francona was supposed to manage the American League during Tuesday’s All-Star Game but opted out after undergoing a cardiac ablation procedure at the Cleveland Clinic on July 6. Francona had been hospitalized for dizziness, fatigue and a rapid heart rate before the procedure. The Indians skipper had also missed two games and was hospitalized twice in June for similar conditions. “Everybody kept saying, ‘How do you feel about missing the AllStar Game?’” Francona said. “It wasn’t the All-Star Game. It was with the guys, it was our guys. That’s icing on the cake during a season. My responsibilities and my affection is here.” Francona was outfitted with a monitor after the procedure and Milwaukee 9, Philadelphia 6 San Francisco 5, San Diego 4 Saturday’s Games Chicago Cubs at Baltimore, 7:05 p.m. St. Louis at Pittsburgh, 7:05 p.m. Arizona at Atlanta, 7:10 p.m. Colorado at N.Y.

The Indians skipper plans to wear the monitor again during the Indians’ current trip so that doctors can obtain additional information on his condition. “The biggest thing is just knowing what it is,” Francona said. “I’d get to a point during games where I was going to black out. Some people were telling me it’s anxiety. I’m probably the least anxietied person ever, so there were a few games where I would push through just because I’m like, ‘I’m not going to be a big baby here.’ Finally when they realized what was going on, that was helpful in itself. “I was getting embarrassed. I kept leaving games. I knew something was wrong. If you’re going to have a problem, being three miles from the Cleveland Clinic is probably a pretty damn good place to have a problem. There were some unbelievable people there that really, really looked out for me. That’s also a good feeling.” Francona said doctors encouraged him to return to work without restriction. However, he plans to alter some of his eating habits. “You get worked up during games and stuff, that’ll be the same,” Francona said. “This didn’t happen because of a lifestyle. Because I have this problem, you don’t want your arteries and stuff getting all clogged up as you get older, so that’s where I need to really keep track of things.” The Indians’ skipper was not completely left out of the All-Star Game festivities. Long-time friend and Cleveland bench coach Brad Mills, who managed the AL in Francona’s absence, produced a cardboard cutout of a muscle-bound, shirtless Francona in the AL clubhouse before the game, bringing a raucous reaction from players and coaches. “I had seen that before,” Francona said. “That was the thing they used last year when they did the takeoff on ‘Major League’ so I had seen that before. I didn’t know they were going to take that thing down there. It’s nice to be thought of.” The Indians (47-40) have the third-best record in the AL and own a 2 ½-game lead over Minnesota in the AL Central. Following their series in Oakland, the Indians head across the San Francisco Bay to play the Giants in a three-game set at AT&T Park. Asked if it felt good to put on his Cleveland uniform again, Francona grinned. “Yeah, heck yeah,” he said. “Probably a little more excited than everybody else here. I have a feeling I probably missed them more than they missed me.” AP SPORTS BRIEFS Sooners without Stoops still preseason pick to win Big 12 Lincoln Riley became the youngest FBS head coach when the 33-year-old offensive coordinator was promoted after Stoops stepped down last month.

The country music royalty the fair has welcomed includes Dolly Parton, George Straight, Keith Urban, Marie Osmond, Roy Acuff, Larry Gatlin and many more over the years. Going back to 1967, the first national performers to grace the fair’s main stage, based upon records provided by the Willis Brothers Grand Ole Opry Show, were Porter Wagoner and the Wagon Masters, with Norma Jean. The overall biggest stars as of this date who have performed at the fair, have likely been Parton, Strait, Urban and Osmond, according to fair entertainment chairman Brian Billings. When it comes to repeat performers at the fair, Bill Anderson has played four times, Gene Watson three times, The Hinsons four times, the Florida Boys three times and holding the record for the most appearances is Rick K. and the Allnighters who have taken the stage five times. “For 56 years the Mason County Fair has brought some of the top stars from Nashville, in country and gospel music, according to Billings. “This year we will be adding our fourth tribute group to the fair, meaning if we can’t achieve the services of the actual individual or group, we will have the next best thing.” This year’s entertainers will be performing on the remodeled, revamped main stage and those entertainers include Aaron Tippin, Kentucky Headhunters, John Anderson, Absolute Journey Tribute and The Kingsmen Quartet. This year’s musical entertainment begins with the “Gospel Night” headliner, The Kingsmen Quartet at 8 p.m., Tuesday, Aug. 8. For more than a half century, no group has secured such a far reaching legacy like that of The Kingsmen Quartet. Those who love gospel music won’t want to miss this amazing group, Billings said. Billings added, since 1956, this group has risen from humble beginnings in the mountains of western North Carolina to one of the most beloved and innovative groups in Christian music. Many countless renowned artists have been a part of this great quartet, Eldridge Fox, “Big” Jim Hamill, Ray Dean Reese, Squire Parsons, Johnny Parrack, Anthony Burger, Ernie Phillips, Gary Shep- Courtesy John Anderson Courtesy The Kingsmen Quartet Courtesy Absolute Journey Courtesy Aaron Tippin Courtesy The dedication to the new Mason County Fair Stage will be Monday, Aug. 7 at 7:30 p.m. Courtesy Kentucky Headhunters Mindy Kearns | Register Conway Twitty meets his fans at the Mason County Fair in 1976.

The momentum has not stopped as the group continues to help define the Southern Gospel genre for a whole new generation of music lovers, perhaps more so than any other group. “The key is to never lose sight of what we are working towards,” says Ray Reese, Kingsmen manager and bass singer. “We tour year in and year out to spread our music to people across the country. Our music has a message, the message of Christ.” Then on Wednesday, Aug. 9, classic rock fans will welcome Absolute Journey Tribute at 9 p.m. According to Billings the band will be “Performing Journey to the highest level of musicianship with outstanding vocals as sung by Riccardo Curzi. His vocal talents are described as one of the closest things you will ever hear compared to Steve Perry. The band complements him with amazing backing vocals and wows the audience with an exciting and energetic live performance.” Absolute Journey Tribute reportedly brings a faithful reproduction of a Journey live show, enriched by audience interactivity and true to the original costume changes. “After watching Absolute Journey Tribute, you will feel like you have just left an actual Journey concert… and that is the goal to leave a lasting impression,” Billings said. Country music takes over at 9 p.m., Thursday, Aug. 10 with Aaron Tippin Duo. Known as one of country music’s most notable artists, Tippin will grace the Mason County Fair stage in a duo setting of music and guitar picking, according to Billings. He has over 25 years of recording and entertaining audiences. Tippin’s first hit single, “You’ve Got To Stand For Something”, hit the Billboard Country singles chart – peaking at #6. The hits continued to pile up – “There Ain’t Nothing Wrong With The Radio”, “My Blue Angel”, “Workin’ Man’s PhD”, and “That’s As Close As I’ll Get To Loving You.” As the new millennium dawned, Tippin returned to the top of the charts with “Where The Stars and Stripes and Eagle Flys,” a song that became part of the American soundtrack during the aftermath of 9/11. Friday, Aug. 11, the Kentucky Headhunters take the fair stage at 9 p.m. The Kentucky Headhunters is an American country rock and Southern rock band. The group was founded in 1968 as the Itchy Brothers. The group began performing as the Kentucky Headhunters in 1986. In 1989 they released their debut album “Pickin’ on Nashville” via Mercury Records, the band charted four consecutive Top 40 country singles. Over the years with changes made to the group the Kentucky Headhunters have released eight studio albums, three compilations, and twenty three singles. In addition, the band has won three Country Music Association awards, and Academy of Country Music award and a Grammy Award for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal, won in 1990 for “Pickin’ on Nashville.” “You can’t go wrong with this group they are definitely one of the best in the music genre today,” Billings said. Providing the musical finale at the fair on Saturday, Aug. 12 will be John Anderson performing at 9 p.m. on the main stage. “We are very excited to have signed a giant like John Anderson,” according to Billings. Anderson has had some of the biggest hits in the music industry, “I’m just an Old Chunk of Coal (But I’m Gonna Be a Diamond Someday”, “Swingin’,” Seminole Wind”, “Straight Tequila Night”, “When It Comes To You”, “Money In The Bank” and so many more. In a Country Music Hall of Fame worthy career that has produced 23 albums, more than 60 singles (20 reaching the Top 10), and a wealth of industry awards you don’t want to miss this super entertainer, Billings, added. The Mason County Fair Queen Contest will be take the main stage at 8 p.m., Monday, Aug. 7. The dedication to the fair stage will be that same evening at 7:30 p.m. and the fair dedication at 7:45 p.m. (Editor’s note: A story on the entertainment at this year’s Gallia County Jr. Fair appeared last week in the Gallipolis Daily Tribune and a story on events set for the Meigs County Fair will appear in upcoming editions of The Daily Sentinel.

The Area Agency on Aging District 7 (AAA7) was established in 1972 through the Older Americans Act (OAA) of 1965 to plan and provide a comprehensive and coordinated system of care through in-home and community-based supportive and nutritional services. Initially, the AAA7 was one of only four model projects in Ohio funded by the US Administration on Aging. It was sponsored by Rio Grande College to focus on ways and means to assist older adults living within the district. The AAA7 originally served four counties including Gallia, Jackson, Meigs and Vinton, and focused on social services for older adults including transportation, information and referral. In 1974, the Agency was designated as the AAA7 by the Ohio Commission on Aging and the area was expanded to ten counties. At this time, the statewide AAA network was also formed. Today, the AAA7 covers the following counties: Adams, Brown, Gallia, Highland, Jackson, Lawrence, Pike, Ross, Scioto and Vinton and is one of twelve Area Agencies on Aging throughout the state of Ohio. Meigs County was later included as a part of the Area Agency on Aging District 8. Program growth in the Agency occurred throughout the years. In 1978, we added the Regional Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program, a service mandated in the OAA that receives, investigates and acts on complaints by older individuals and their families who are residents of long-term care facilities, and advocates for the well-being of such individuals. We also added the responsibility of the Nutrition Program, gram through the funded through the traditional method Older Americans or self-directed Act, to provide option. congregate dining Other services opportunities and that have been home-delivered added over the meals through a years include Sernetwork of dinvice Coordination, ing sites and rural Pamela routes throughout K.

Most recently, we have also worked with our local hospitals on post-discharge assistance and transition to home; helped veterans with selfdirected home and community-based services that allow them to stay safe and independent in their homes; worked with individuals under the age of 60 needing long-term care services; and providing wellness classes in our communities to assist those living with a chronic disease, individuals living with diabetes, those who have a fear of falling, and family caregivers who are looking for helpful advice and tips. In addition, we continue to advocate for seniors and those with disabilities with our state and federal legislators, and enjoy participating in community events and activities in order to share the resources available through our Agency. Our Agency is dedicated to educating our community about the services we provide. Unfortunately, many people are unaware of the valuable resources that are available to them.
