After the meal, family members took several pictures, including a Staneart family group photo. During the business meeting, “Lucky” Luckett read minutes from last year’s reunion. They were approved as read. Vera made several contacts before the reunion and reported on the ﬁve she had reached. The declining numbers are a concern, but there still seems to be some who are interested in attending in the future. It was suggested that if someone cannot attend any given year they may want to send a monetary donation and/or family information to preserve the Staneart family history. Paula Staneart Pickens, Connie Staneart Largent and Joyce Staneart Sheline will be in charge next year and they agreed to try to contact as many Stanearts as possible in order to be able to continue the annual Staneart Family Reunion. It was noted that county fairs and 4-H projects kept several from attending this year. Therefore members discussed having it a different Saturday. It was decided to hold the reunion Saturday, July 14, 2018. Many family memories were shared and Vera read a poem she wrote entitled, “Treasured Family Memories.” After reading her poem, she expressed the family’s sadness for the accidental death of Noah Cox (the only son of Stephanie and Jeff Cox and only grandson of Connie and John Largent). “It is a deep loss to our entire family. He was an amazing person, great showman, bright, kind and had a strong sense of humor. He grabbed live with both hands and held on tight. He is missed and greatly loved.” Connie Largent took the opportunity to tell everyone about the foundation that Noah’s parents are setting up in his honor. The 4-H club he belonged to, The Hoof and Hides 4-H Club, are also supporting their efforts. Plans are being made for the foundation to build an addition to the beef barn on the Athens County Fairgrounds in Noah’s name. His steer will be shown at the fair by his friend Austin, who has been caring for Noah’s animals since his tractor accident. Other family members shared their precious memories about Noah. Family antiques, heirlooms and homemade crafts were provided by family members for the traditional silent auction. Those helping with the auction were Joyce Staneart Sheline, Robert Allen, Jenny and Lucky Luckett. It was very successful and great fun, according to those in attendance. Gifts were awarded to the following: Oldest, Bill Kirkendall (age 80); Youngest, (gift was for a small child, with no children in attendance for the reunion) Vera Richardson was the youngest with Angela Allen being the next youngest, however, since they purchased the gift they each refused it, making Lucky Luckett next in line at age 54; Traveled furthest, Robert and Deana Allen from Hampstead, North Carolina; Guessing game “pennies” — Phyllis Kirkendall. A total of 13 were in attendance: John and Connie Largent, Joe and Joyce Sheline, Bill and Phyllis Kirkendall, Paula Pickens, Vera Richardson, Angela Allen, Robert and Dena Allen, and Jenny and Ermel Luckett Jr. Information submitted by Paula Jean Staneart Pickens.

In central and south Texas, an area the size of Michigan is now a storm-tossed lake. What Brad Kieserman, vice president of Red Cross, described as “the most catastrophic event” he has ever seen has killed several people, displaced tens of thousands and wrecked untold numbers of homes, commercial and industrial buildings, highways, bridges and harbors. It has also created human misery on a vast scale. Thirty Texas counties, which together have nearly 7 million residents, already have been declared disaster areas. Nearly half a million people may ultimately need disaster assistance. The physical and emotional wounds inﬂicted on victims won’t heal overnight. One heartening aspect of the catastrophe is the heroic effort of so many locals who’ve used every means they had to rescue those stranded and in danger. Another was the response of other cities in the region. “We will do whatever it takes,” promised San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg, who expects a large inﬂux of evacuees from Houston, 200 miles to the east. “No one will be turned away.” No doubt Americans will respond quickly and generously to the catastrophe, sending contributions to groups that minister to those in need — from well-known organizations like the Salvation Army and the Red Cross to local food pantries, diaper banks and shelters. Numerous big corporations have made large pledges, including $1 million apiece from Walmart, Pepsico and Amazon. Volunteers are arriving by the hour to do what they can. The federal and state governments have a big role to play. On top of the search and rescue efforts undertaken and coordinated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Congress may have to come up with additional funds to assist in overcoming this gargantuan disaster. Americans who want to help shouldn’t limit their focus to the Houston area. Much of the Texas Gulf Coast was devastated, and much of southern Louisiana, too, is at high risk of ﬂooding. But it’s also important to remember Houston and neighboring areas once the sun is shining. Recovering from a natural disaster on this immense scale takes a long time. If someone asks how long New Orleans needed to recover from Hurricane Katrina, in 2005, the best answer would be: We’re still waiting to ﬁnd out. “We are going to be dealing with this all the way through Christmas,” predicted Kieserman in an interview with NPR. Repairing and rebuilding will take not months, but years. So will bringing back the people forced to leave. The New Orleans area lost some 380,000 residents after Katrina, and 10 years later, its population was still well below its previous level. Baton Rouge, which absorbed a lot of those who left New Orleans, has grown. Tens of thousands of former New Orleans residents settled in Houston, which in 2005 used the Astrodome to provide shelter to 25,000 people Many of the unfortunate souls now displaced from Houston are expected to seek refuge in San Antonio, Austin, Dallas and Fort Worth, as well as smaller cities that the storm spared. Dallas is housing evacuees in a convention center, and high schools and middle schools in Austin are being used as emergency shelters. Anyone looking for worthy causes should look not just at the place hit by the storm but the places that will be coping with the inﬂux of evacuees for quite a while. Americans are a generous people, quick to respond to devastating emergencies by opening their checkbooks and rolling up their sleeves. For all of us, FEMA Administrator Brock Long had some sound advice: “Donate your money. Figure out how you can get involved as we help Texas ﬁnd a new normal.” We would add: And keep doing that long after the ﬂoodwaters recede. YOUR VIEW Talking immigration in the United States Dear Editor, Trump is getting a lot of criticism for pardoning a man that did his job and took immigrants back to homeland. But did we forget Obama pardoned a Mexican lady that had stolen social security numbers from real citizens of the USA and her whole family? We need to keep jobs for the ones born here, not teach our trades to aliens for cheaper labor. All humans have a right to live but there are laws in all countries not just USA. Tammy Neace Pomeroy, Ohio THEIR VIEW Physiology and the advent of the smartphone at a certain speed “could actually make our bones fall apart.” So far, that hasn’t happened. While adjusting to the future is often alarming, as Bilton illustrated, humans ﬁnd a way to cope. A recent article in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette drove that point home. Doctors have identiﬁed the condition of “text neck,” found most often in teenagers and young adults who stare down at their smartphones for two to four hours a day. An orthopedic surgeon quoted in the article advises people to simply “take a break from that thing.” If that proves unrealistic, there’s a Pilates class geared for teenagers, which includes a focus on overcoming “text neck.” The instructor noticed that four girls in a recent class “could not drop their heads in a relaxed position during the exercises” — a clear sign of TN. It is beyond doubt that the proliferation of digital devices is chang- ing the way people process information: smaller gulps from wider sources, less sustained attention. When you can pry your hands from your own smartphone for a minute, go ahead and wring them over this decline in intellectual capacity. But the endurance of the human species is testimony to its remarkable ability to adapt. And there’s one constant: Each generation is horriﬁed by the decadence of the one following. All across Ohio, the Marsy’s Law movement is gaining momentum as more than half a million Ohioans signed petitions to put the issue on the November 2017 ballot. And community leaders, local law enforcement, elected ofﬁcials and crime victim advocates are all lending their support to the crime victim bill of rights. Marsy’s Law would grant these basic rights to crime victims: �J^[�h_]^j�je�X[� treated with respect, fairness and dignity throughout the criminal justice process. �J^[�h_]^j�je�_d\ehmation about the rights and services available to crime victims. �J^[�h_]^j�je�X[�dej_ﬁed in a timely manner of major proceedings and developments in the case and the right to be notiﬁed of all changes to an offender’s status. �J^[�h_]^j�je�X[�fh[ient at court proceedings and provide input to a prosecutor before a plea deal is struck. �J^[�h_]^j�je�X[� heard at pleas or sentence proceedings or any process that may grant an offender’s release. �J^[�h_]^j�je�h[ij_jktion. Marsy’s Law rights would be provided to crime victims in the form of Marsy’s Card, which will help crime victims clearly understand their rights. The law is named after Marsalee (Marsy) Nicholas, a University of California Santa Barbara student, who was stalked and killed by her ex-boyfriend in 1983. Only a week after Marsy was murdered, her brother and mother walked into a grocery store after visiting Marsy’s grave and were confronted by the accused murderer. The family had no idea that he had been released on bail. Please join me in supporting Marsy’s Law for Ohio and casting your vote this November for this important addition to Ohio’s Constitution. The following editorial appeared in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on Monday, Aug. 28: In his 2010 book “I Live in the Future & Here’s How It Works,” the technology writer Nick Bilton relayed anecdotes about early 19th-century anxieties in Britain at the dawn of train travel. It was thought that “people would asphyxiate if carried at speeds of more than 20 mph” and reputable scientists believed that traveling YOUR VIEW Marsy’s Law for Ohio Dear Editor, As a dedicated husband whose wife lost her 33 year old brother to a drunk drivers negligence in 1993 I have seen all too well the incredible pain a family suffers at the tragic loss of a loved one. Behind every headline is a crime victim and their family who is too often overlooked. They deserve to be treated with dignity and respect by our legal system. That’s why I support Marsy’s Law for Ohio, a constitutional amendment ensuring equal rights for crime victims.

BEREA, Ohio (AP) — They’ve come and gone, some faster than others. Rookies, free agents, recycled veterans and career backups all have had their shot starting at quarterback for the Cleveland Browns over the past 18 seasons. From Tim Couch to Jeff Garcia to Derek Anderson to Brady Quinn to Colt McCoy to Johnny Manziel … there have been 26 QBs since 1999. Not one has stayed around long enough to change the franchise’s fortunes. Coach Hue Jackson believes rookie DeShone Kizer — No. 27 — could be the one. In fact, he’s betting on it. “We’re going to make this happen,” Jackson said Mon- day, less than 24 hours after announcing Kizer as his starter for 2017. “We’re going to work through this because I think he’s talented. I think this guy has the right stuff. If I’m worth my salt as a coach, I will get it out of him, and if he’s willing to do the work, he’ll rise to the occasion, and I think he will.” The Browns are all in with Kizer, who was consistent in practice and made more big plays in the exhibitions to beat out veterans Brock Osweiler and Cody Kessler. The 21-year-old will start Cleveland’s opener on Sept. 10 against Pittsburgh, and Jackson promised he’ll stick with the former Notre Dame starter as long as necessary. Jackson, who went 1-15 in his ﬁrst season with Cleveland, bristled when asked if he had any apprehension playing a rookie quarterback. “Why?” he said. “I’ve been down this road before. I didn’t make a decision to make him the quarterback because I had fear in it or not know how it’s going to unfold. I have a vision for it. It might not go that way. If it does, great. If it doesn’t, we keep working through it.” Jackson has extensive experience with quarterbacks and said his choice of Kizer was easier than others he’s made. Critics have said Kizer isn’t See BROWNS | 7 OVCS nets first win of season By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com WILLIAMSTOWN, W.Va. — It took four games, but the Lady Defenders ﬁnally found their rhythm.

Southern outlasts Lady Raiders in five By Alex Hawley ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com BIDWELL, Ohio — A slow start doesn’t have to ruin your entire night. After dropping the opening game by 15 points, the Southern volleyball team fought back to win three of the next four games and take a non-conference victory over host River Valley, on Monday night in Gallia County. The Lady Raiders (2-2) led wire-to-wire in the ﬁrst game, winning by a 25-10 count. Southern (1-1) returned the favor in the second game, scoring the ﬁrst seven points and never trailing en route to a 25-17 win, which tied the match at one game apiece. River Valley led early in the third game, but Southern took the lead at 10-9. RVHS immediately regained the advantage, and pushed the edge as high as ﬁve. Trailing by three, at 18-15, the Lady Tornadoes reeled off nine straight point and eventually won the third by a 25-22 count, moving ahead 2-1 in the match. After ﬁve ties early in the fourth game, Southern opened up a RVHS senior Carly Gilmore (3) spikes the ball in front of teammate four-point, 20-16, lead.

Roush had a team-best 23 digs for the Lady Tornado defense. “We need to work more on our offense,” Hupp said. “We need to be smart about putting the ball where it needs to be and when we need to be smart when it comes to swinging hard or let off a little bit.” The Lady Raider net attack was led by Horner with seven kills. Gilmore and Madison Tabor each had six kills, with seven and four blocks respectively. Gattinara had ﬁve kills and ﬁve blocks, Mershon chipped in with ﬁve kills and one block, while Brown contributed four kills to the RVHS cause.

Lewis said there’s nothing wrong with how Burfict leveled Chiefs running back Anthony Sherman during a preseason game, resulting in the linebacker’s latest suspension. “In my opinion, Vontaze has changed,” Lewis said Tuesday. “He’s learned. He’s a 250pound man, but he hits like dynamite. I mean, it’s like being hit by a cement truck. That’s just the way he plays. That’s why he’s the player he is.” The hit wasn’t penalized during the game, but the NFL can impose ﬁnes and suspensions after reviewing video of games. NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy pointed out in an email to The Associated Press that the league’s rulebook bans “unnecessary contact” against players who aren’t in position to defend themselves. Also, the rules prohibit “unnecessary roughness” against a player who isn’t involved in a play. Sherman was coming out of the backﬁeld but wasn’t the intended receiver when Burﬁct leveled him with a hit high to his chest as the pass went down the ﬁeld. Burﬁct has appealed the suspension. If it’s upheld, the Bengals will open without their top defensive player for the second straight season because of an egregious hit. Burﬁct missed the ﬁrst three games last season while serving an NFL suspension for his hit to Antonio Brown’s head during a 2015 playoff loss to the Steelers. The league cited Burf- ict’s history of egregious hits when it suspended him for last season. He came into the NFL with a reputation for losing his cool in the heat of the moment. The playmaker went undrafted in 2012 because of his long history of on-ﬁeld issues at Arizona State. He repeatedly got personal fouls in his early seasons in Cincinnati, despite the coaching staff urging him to change the way he plays. His worst moment came in the Bengals’ ﬁrst-round playoff game against the Steelers in the 2015 season. Burﬁct hit Brown in the head after an incomplete pass, moving the Steelers in range for a game-winning ﬁeld goal. Cornerback Adam “Pacman” Jones bumped an ofﬁcial during an on-ﬁeld verbal altercation after Burﬁct’s hit, drawing another 15-yard penalty. The Steelers made a 26-yard ﬁeld goal with 14 seconds left for an 18-16 Gary Landers | AP Cincinnati Bengals outside linebacker Vontaze Burfict (55) tackles Kansas City Chiefs fullback Anthony Sherman (42) during the first half of a preseason game Aug. 19 in Cincinnati. win, taking advantage of one of the greatest meltdowns in NFL playoff history. The Bengals haven’t won a playoff game since 1990, the sixth-longest streak of futility in league history. Jones also is suspended to start the season, getting sidelined for one game because of his offseason conviction on a misdemeanor charge. The Bengals went 1-2 during Burﬁct’s threegame suspension last season, losing in Pittsburgh and at home to Denver. Vincent Rey ﬁlled in for those three games at Burﬁct’s spot and is expected to do so again. “Coach Paulie (Guenther) says, ‘Who’s a starter in here?’ and the whole defense stands up,” Rey said. “He’s always saying everybody has to be ready. Someone’s going to have to play meaningful snaps for us.” Meyer talks up depth of OSU receivers Ex-coaches Nehlen, By Jim Naveau Meyer sidestepped a question about whether Ohio State has found a No. 1, go-to receiver by COLUMBUS, Ohio – Urban Meyer went deep praising the depth of the receiver group. into the depth chart at “This is as much his ﬁrst weekly press depth as we’ve had but conference of the footI can’t tell you the guy,” ball season on Monday. he said. “I can tell you One of his biggest six people that will play hopes for the season, starting with the opener in a pure rotation basis.

To say I’m conﬁdent, I’m just sort of a worrier to make sure we’re covering everything we need to win a game.” Some other thoughts from Meyer: WHITE ON TRAVEL SQUAD: Freshman safety Brendon White, son of Lima Senior graduate and four-year Ohio State starter William White, will be among the freshman on the traveling squad for the Indiana game, Meyer said. BIG STRIDES BY BOWEN: Sophomore Branden Bowen, who won the competition to start at right guard over several players, made a big improvement since last season to win that job, Meyer said. “He’s the most improved guy, one of the most improved players on our team. Something clicked with him about early summer. I heard it from Coach Mick (strength and conditioning coordinator Mickey Marotti). I saw it. “It really wasn’t that close to be honest with you. (Matthew Burrell) was very close to him but Bowen did a very nice job.” IN A BUBBLE: Meyer started his press confer- ence by saying that he was unaware until Monday morning how devastating Hurricane Harvey had been in Houston. “I was in a cocoon and tied up in training camp and didn’t realize the issues going on in Houston and the surrounding area,” he said. Meyer said he called the family of cornerback Kendall Shefﬁeld after learning of the ﬂooding and other damage done by the hurricane. Shefﬁeld’s family is in Missouri City, Tex., which is located in the southwest part of the Houston metropolitan area. He also said he tried to call former OSU coach and player Mike Vrabel, who is now the defensive coordinator of the Houston Texans. WEBER NOT DEFINITE YET: Asked if running back Mike Weber is back to 100 percent after having problems with a hamstring during training camp, Meyer said, “He’s very close. I’ll know more today (Monday) but he’s close.” Asked if freshman J.K. Dobbins could start instead of Weber if he is not completely over the hamstring issue, Meyer said, “I don’t think we’re there yet but I’ll know more today.” Beamer glad Va.
