According to Gallia Commissioner Harold Montgomery the county will need to take into account a loss in $600,000 per year from tax which would have been gathered from an MCO sales tax which has been discussed at length with some controversy over the better course of a year. The Ohio Senate eventually decided to not override a veto of Gov. John Kasich to eliminate the MCO sales tax monies which were taken in my county governments. However, Gallia County has been given a one time stipend of around $900,000 to make up for the $600,000 loss.

There are two kinds of pneumococcal vaccines available in the United States. Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine and Pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine. Pneumococcal disease is common in young children, but older adults are at greatest risk of serious pneumococcal infections and even death. CDC recommends vaccination with the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine for all babies and children younger than 2 years old, all adults 65 years or older, and people 2 years through 64 years old who are at increased risk for pneumococcal disease due to certain medical conditions.

County From page 1A any potential motive or the chronology of the slayings, and he declined to disclose what Lawson said to the arresting ofﬁcers. Lawson was wearing a camouﬂage jacket, but the sheriff said investigators hadn’t determined whether it was his or an item he stole while on the run. Lawson is being held on charges of murder and aggravated murder. It wasn’t immediately clear whether he has an attorney. He was arrested roughly 12 miles (19 kilometers) south of where authorities found three adults dead in a house trailer on Wednesday evening. The sheriff identiﬁed them Friday as a 28-year-old resident of the home, Stacey Jackson, and two relatives who lived at a property on the same road, 50-year- old Donald McGuire and 43-year-old Tammie McGuire. The father of 7-year-old victim Devin Holston came upon the scene after work, was stabbed and ﬂed the home to seek help. He was ﬂown to a hospital in Huntington, West Virginia, and is recovering well, Lawless said. Devin initially was the subject of a missing-child alert after the adults were discovered. Authorities spent hours searching for him, only to later ﬁnd him dead in the same house trailer, his body apparently hidden, Lawless said. A few relatives of the victims said after the arrest that they had seen no sign or warning of such violence by Lawson, who lived up the road from the trailer home. Lawson was being ques- tioned by investigators Friday and could face more charges, the sheriff said. Agents from the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation have been helping Lawrence County with the investigation, BCI spokeswoman Jill Del Greco said. The initial report about the slayings — violence against multiple people believed to be related — recalled details from a still-unsolved homicide case that rattled rural southern Ohio last year, but the cases didn’t appear to be connected, Del Greco said. The deaths on Wednesday occurred roughly 40 miles (64 kilometers) southeast of the Piketon area, where eight people from the Rhoden family were found shot to death in four homes in April 2016. perform enhanced lockdown and prepare to counter.

After hearing a presentation an isolated section of a building, occupants in other wards on the training, staff was given the option to participate in the can safely evacuate while “live scenarios” with air-soft those in direct danger can gun ﬁre or in the walk through scenarios. As part of the live scenarios, staff members were ﬁrst told to take part in what is considered the traditional lockdown of locking the door and hiding under desks. The shooter then entered the classroom, without resistance, ﬁnding that the staff members would have been easy targets, with many able to be hit in a small amount of time. In the second scenario, staff members were asked to “lockdown” using what they had learned through the ALICE Training. During this version of the lockdown, staff members were able to place items in front of doorways to block the shooter from having a clear shot on anyone inside the room. Other rooms were able to keep the door from being opened with the strength of a teacher who could hold it shut as the gunman pulled on the door. No one in any of the three classrooms was able to be hit by the air-soft ﬁre during this scenario. Staff members were then given a scenario in which the secretary announced that there was a gunman in a different part of the building, forcing the staff to decide whether to evacuate or lockdown given the location. All three classrooms were able to safely evacuate before the gunman could get to the area. In this case, evacuation was to safe zone that had been set up, but in the case of an actual active shooter situation, those who may have elected to lockdown in their classrooms could also evacuate through the windows in the rooms if needed to escape. Francis advised the staff members that when evacuating to remember not to run in a straight line, as that increases the chances of being hit by gun ﬁre. Those running in a zig-zag pattern are harder to hit. With the option to counter the possible gunman, staff members were given stress balls to throw at the gunman which were to represent actual classroom items which they would throw in the case of a real situation. Francis advised the staff that in the case of an actual shooter situation items such as books, staplers, scissors or other items could be thrown, but not to directly attempt to ﬁght with gunman. This was also the case during a scenario staged in the library. In this case, stress balls had been placed on the shelves and tables to symbolize the books. As the gunman moved from one area into another those who he had his back to were able to evacuate, while also countering to disrupt the shooter. During a debrieﬁng session after the live scenarios, multiple teachers explained that they felt empowered should they ever be put in an active shooter situation. Other takeaways from the training was how fast the situation can unfold, leaving seconds to decide which course of action to take. Francis noted that it is important to pick a course of action and commit to it. In one of the scenarios, a classroom had begun to lockdown, and he to take down a barricade in order to evacuate, wasting what could be valuable seconds. As for presenting the ALICE Training concepts to the students, Francis said there are videos that go along with the program that are age speciﬁc. Additionally, evacuation and lockdown drills are something that can be incorporated like ﬁre drills. In addition to the training on Monday, staff members have taken part in an online training and have several additional resources and training materials available through that portal.

Meigs County Economic Development Director Perry Varnadoe explained that the planning for the potential project has been taking place for about two years with AEP Ohio looking at sites around the area. “It could have gone anywhere but they chose here,” said Varnadoe. The Economic Development ofﬁce, Community Improvement Corporation and the Commissioners had worked with AEP Ohio to identify potential locations in the area with AEP Ohio ultimately selecting the location in the eastern portion of Meigs County after looking at multiple sites. Varnadoe estimated that the project was around an $8 million investment by the company in the area. AEP Ohio expects to be in the new facility in the fall of 2018.

Flipping the wall calendar over to October a couple of Sundays ago, I fell victim to the usual question, “Where did this year go?” It just doesn’t seem all that long ago that 2017 commenced, spring began, grass-cutting season arrived and Vinton had its annual bean dinner. You think about it for a moment or two, then move on. But then you turn on the noonday television news and a local channel runs a promotion for announcing school closings in severe weather — that is, winter. Hold on. We’re talking about coverage of cold and snowy conditions when the leaves are (mostly) still on the trees, daytime temperatures exceed 80 degrees and it’s not even Indian summer? It’s the same thing when you go into the stores. Halloween decorations and doodads are on the shelves and aisles right after Labor Day, and Christmas stuff is jockeying for space with trick-or-treat items. All of this occurs, seemingly earlier and earlier, before we turn the clocks back an hour for daylight savings time. So why the rush? Why can’t Halloween paraphernalia be out as October opens and not before, and the sights and sounds of Christmas wait to ﬁll our senses after we’ve celebrated Thanksgiving? they can buy at a The answer to limited-time disthese questions, count.

Not when the with huge-ticket products heat of summer fades, replaced by comfortably warm days and agreeably chilly nights, when the wintertime gear can stay in the closet for another month or so. Perhaps even longer, depending on those conditions that dictate our weather. No, I’d rather just enjoy autumn’s delights while they last. Of course one of the primary reasons that these reminders of time passing is in my entering a sixth decade of existence when mentally, my arrival in Ohio as a college student in 1977 seems only like last week. That, my wife Beth tells me, is a sure sign of age catching up with me. Am I worried there isn’t enough time to get everything done I hope to accomplish? Maybe. Am I concerned about squandering all the years and opportunities I had? Sometimes. But I’d rather give thanks for all of the positives that have happened. I take the approach that age is merely a number, your mind should stay young and what time we each have left be spent as usefully as possible. And perhaps that’s why the days and weeks seem to disappear so swiftly. Who notices time when they’re busy? You be the judge. COLUMBUS — The week of Oct. 16 through Oct. 20, has been designated National School Bus Safety Week. This year’s theme, “Stop on Red,” reminds motorists and students about the dangers that exist outside of school buses. Troopers will increase visibility on school bus routes and school related safety zones by following or riding on school buses to identify violations. Motorists approaching a stopped school bus from either direction are required to stop at least 10 feet from the bus while the bus is receiving or discharging students. Bus drivers will activate yellow warning lights prior to the stop to warn trafﬁc, and will display red ﬂashing lights and a stop sign while the bus is stopped. Motorists should be especially vigilant around any stopped school bus — with or without ﬂashing lights. Where a road divided into four or more lanes, only trafﬁc driving in the same direction as the bus must stop. Kevin Kelly, who was affiliated with Ohio Valley Publishing for 21 years, resides in Vinton, Ohio. Students need to cross where the school bus driver can see them, wait for the drivers signal to cross and watch for trafﬁc. The greatest risk to children is when they are outside the school bus. Student injuries and fatalities can occur when motorists attempt to pass a stopped school bus. “School buses remain the safest mode of transportation for students to and from school,” said Colonel Paul A. Pride, Patrol superintendent. “With the cooperation of motorists, parents, and children and public awareness we can make this a safe school year throughout Ohio.” From 2014 to 2016, 4,160 drivers were convicted of failing to stop for a stopped school bus and 3,958 trafﬁc crashes were reported involving school buses. The Patrol reminds motorists to use caution when driving around school buses or in school zones. Motorists should also be prepared to stop quickly and remain aware of their surroundings.

But, Thomas was not what Wahama coach Dave Barr considered a one-man wrecking crew. The White Falcons rushed for two yards shy of an even 400 on 36 carries, and the defense forced two turnovers and made two second-half stands inside the 3-yard line. “Christian had a great game, but there are 10 guys that are blocking and doing a great job for him. Christian knows that and would give those guys a lot of credit,” said Barr. “To his credit, he (Thomas) is a See ROUT | 2B GA’s rally falls short to Redmen, 56-54 By Paul Boggs pboggs@aimmediamidwest.com PEDRO, Ohio — To call it quite the comeback would be an understatement. Unfortunately for the Blue Devils, they’re still calling it a loss. That’s because Gallia Academy’s astonishing 40-point fourth quarter and furious rally fell short at Rock Hill on Friday night, as the Blue Devils lost to the host Redmen 56-54 in a high-scoring Ohio Valley Conference football affair. That’s correct. The Blue Devils — without injured standout linebacker Jacob Campbell — got gashed through the ﬁrst three quarters, falling well behind at 49-14. The Redmen did most of their damage in the middle two stanzas, pouring on 20 points in the second and 22 more in the third. Gallia Academy then trailed 56-26 with only ﬁve minutes and nine seconds remaining, as Zak Adkins —who had three touchdown runs — dashed in from 42 yards out. But the Blue Devils, which racked up 40 fourthperiod points, scored four times on Justin McClelland touchdown passes in the ﬁnal 4:19 — to ﬁnally get within 56-54. Consider, of course, that Rock Hill had its reserve unit in, while the Blue Devils’ starters still played until the end. The ﬁnal of those four tosses came with just four seconds remaining, when McClelland completed a 42-yarder to Garrett Burns. McClelland converted the two-point conversion run to make it 56-54, as GAHS attempted its ﬁnal of seven onside kickoffs, but the Redmen recovered and sealed the win. In fact, Gallia Academy only recovered one onside kick, setting up the McClelland to Burns connection after it went three plays and 79 yards on the drive before — with McClelland completing a 15-yard TD pass to Caleb Henry. The loss marked the third consecutive for the Blue Devils, as both clubs are now 3-5 overall and 2-3 in the league. The Blue Devils have now dropped their last eight league road tilts, including the last six in only their second season in the OVC. In addition, as Gallia Academy rushed for only 148 yards on 27 carries, the Blue and White remain winless this season when failing to rush for 230 yards. Instead, McClelland unleashed an aerial assault, See RALLY | 2B OVP SPORTS SCHEDULE Monday, Oct. 16 Volleyball Buffalo at Hannan, 6 p.m. Wahama at Point Pleasant, 6 p.m. Chesapeake at Gallia Academy, 6:30 (10) South Gallia at (7) Trimble, 6 p.m. (9) South Webster at (8) Southern, 6 p.m. Boys Soccer (9) Gallia Academy at (8) Fairland, 5 p.m. (5) Williamstown at (4) Point Pleasant, 6:30 Tuesday, Oct. 17 Volleyball Covenant Christian at Hannan, 5:30 OVCS at Point Pleasant, 6 p.m. (9) New Lexington at (8) Meigs, 6 p.m. Girls Soccer (3) Sissonville at (2) Point Pleasant, 7 p.m. Bryan Walters | OVP Sports Point Pleasant running back Justin Brumfield (10) is chased down by Meigs defender David Robson as teammates Bailey Caruthers (12) and Landon Acree, right, also give chase during the first half of Friday night’s Week 8 football contest in Point Pleasant, W.Va. Point pounds Marauders, 56-16 By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — This Friday the 13th slasher was named Cason, not Jason. Quarterback Cason Payne ran for 210 yards, threw for 126 more and accounted for ﬁve of Point Pleasant’s eight touchdowns on Friday night during a 56-16 dismantling of visiting Meigs in a Week 8 nonconference football game at Ohio Valley Bank Track and Field in Mason County. The Big Blacks (6-2) — after playing ﬁve of their ﬁrst seven regular season contests on the road — needed a little time to get reacquainted with their home surroundings, but the Red and Black eventually got things rolling late in the opening period. There were a trio of interceptions after sustainable drives on the ﬁrst three possessions of the game, which put the ball back in the hands of Point at its own 49 with 4:21 left. Three plays and 51 yards later, the Big Blacks held a permanent lead following a 14-yard scamper from Justin Brumﬁeld. Jacob Bryant tacked on the ﬁrst of eight successful point-after kicks, giving the hosts a 7-0 edge with 3:35 left in the ﬁrst period. Both teams traded punts into the second quarter, then the Marauders (3-5) took over possession at their own 40 less than a minute into “Our offensive line really played well tonight because they got after it up front, and what can I say about Cason Payne tonight except that that was one heck of a performance. (Justin) Brumfield probably had over a hundred yards rushing and we made some plays on the perimeter. Offensively, we had a pretty good night … and the defense was pretty good too.” — Dave Darst, Point Pleasant coach the period. Facing a third-and-long, MHS quarterback Zach Helton was on his way down for a sack when he released a last-chance pass that went straight into the hands of Cameron Nott. Nott went untouched for a 35-yard return, making it a 14-0 contest with 9:44 remaining in the half. Meigs lost possession on downs and also punted on its next two drives, while the Big Blacks went through Payne on their next two drives. Payne found Josh Wamsley on a 59-yard touchdown pass that capped a six-play, 84-yard drive at the 3:47 mark for a 21-0 edge. Payne then broke away from a handful tacklers for a 70-yard scamper just before the half, allowing the Red and Black to secure a 28-0 cushion headed into the locker room. Statistically at the break, Point Pleasant owned a 262-154 advantage in total yards — including a 191-98 edge in rushing yards. Meigs, however, claimed an 8-7 lead in ﬁrst downs despite being minus-2 in turnover differential. PPHS picked up right where it left off to start the second half as the hosts forced a Meigs punt at the start of the third, then Payne found Tucker Mayes wide open for a 17-yard catch-and run — giving Point a sizable 35-point cushion with 10:11 remaining. The Maroon and Gold ﬁnally struck paydirt at the 8:52 mark of the third as Cole Adams hauled in a 69-yard pass from Helton. Zach Bartrum added a successful PAT run for a 35-8 contest. Payne responded with TD runs of 24 yards and 58 yards over the next three-plus minutes of play, allowing Point to secure its largest lead of the game at 49-8 with 5:30 left in the third. The guests closed a bit of the gap at the 1:09 mark as Adams scored on a 6-yard run, then Landon Acree hauled in a pass from Cory Cox on the two-point try for a 49-16 contest. Nick Parsons wrapped up the scoring by plowing his way into the end zone from seven yards out, making it a 56-16 contest with just three seconds left before the ﬁnal period. The game was televised live on WCHS-TV as its weekly Wendy’s Friday Night Rivals Game of the Week in West Virginia, and Payne was named the game’s Most Valuable Player after accounting for roughly 360 of Point Pleasant’s 558 yards of total offense. The Big Blacks also churned out 396 rushing yards on 32 attempts, an average of roughly 12.4 yards per carry. Meigs, conversely, produced only 290 yards of total offense — including 138 rushing yards on 41 tries. After the game, PPHS coach Dave Darst was pleased with his troops’ overall performance in a long-overdue game at home. “Our offensive line really played well tonight because they got after it up front, and what can I say about Cason Payne tonight except that that was one heck of a performance,” Darst said. “(Justin) Brumﬁeld probably had over a hundred yards rushing and we made some plays on the perimeter.

Arrington added 78 yards on only seven attempts, while Bumgarner gained 55 yards on 13 totes. Bryton Grate completed two of his ﬁve pass attempts, as both went to Hendrick for 29 yards. For the Rebels, the freshman Northup notched a hefty 40 carries for 174 yards, with 29 touches and 114 yards coming in the second half. His three-yard run on 4th-and-goal with 6:10 to play ﬁnally got the Red and Gold on the board, capping a six-play, 18-yard drive that was started by a 17-yard punt return from midﬁeld and a Wahama personal-foul penalty. Northup had all but nine of South Gallia’s carries — as the Rebels ran 53 plays from scrimmage, including 34 in the second half which operated under the Ohio High School Athletic Association’s running-clock rule for the ﬁnal 17 minutes and 50 seconds. Wahama held the Rebels to 67 total yards in the ﬁrst half, including 63 on the ground, as Northup had 11 carries for 60. Mabe completed his only pass on four attempts, which went to Austin Stapleton for four yards. “Our defense, especially our front four and our inside linebackers, really played well tonight too,” said Barr. The Rebels’ lines, on the other hand, did not. “We just didn’t maintain blocks,” said Smith. “When you get on somebody, you have to stay on and we didn’t do that. We were hitting them once and releasing, which was allowing them to get penetration and tackle our backs in the backﬁeld.” South Gallia, after drives of 10 and eight plays in the third quarter to right near the goal line and a nineplay four-and-a-half minute march on the ﬁnal drive of the game, failed to produce points. That followed three threeand-out possessions in the ﬁrst half, as the Rebels punted twice for an average of 25 yards, as their ﬁrst attempt actually resulted in a bad snap and run of only three. Trailing 21-0, the Rebels took the second-half kickoff, but a fumble on the second snap gave the ball back to the White Falcons. “Kyle (Northup) did run the ball hard, but we left points on the ﬁeld, especially the second half,” said Smith. “We were inside the 5-yard line twice and didn’t score. If you put those in, it changes the momentum and the outcome is a little better. Then we had two turnovers when we were moving the ball. That’s about the story of the night.” The Rebels return home, and return to TVC Hocking Division action, next Friday night against Southern. Wahama will do the same against Miller, which Barr believes is a de facto playoff game for his club. “I’m really proud of these guys. When we were 1-5, it would have been easy for this bunch to quit and be done for the year. But they have battled every week and practiced great,” he said. “In our opinion, Miller coming to our place next week is our playoff game. We’re going to have a great week of practice next week and do everything we can to give ourselves the best opportunity to win.” Paul Boggs can be reached at 740-4462342, ext. 2106 11 carries to go with 17 yards on one reception. SHS junior Logan Drummer — who ran three times for a total of 10 yards — was 3-of-12 passing for 47 yards, with Gage Shuler as the team’s top receiver, hauling in two passes for 30 yards. Roush also led the Purple and Gold on defense with 3.5 tackles for a loss, followed by Austin Arnold with 1.5 tackles for a loss.

All ﬁve of Gallia Academy’s ﬁnal TDs came through the air —after McClelland rushed for a 9-yard score for the second time in the game, just 31 seconds into the ﬁnal quarter. He gave Gallia Academy its only lead at 8-0 just three minutes in —with his initial 9-yard run and a two-point conversion pass to James Armstrong. McClelland’s 20-yard strike to Boo Pullins with 7:05 left made it 49-26, as the Blue Devils then answered Adkins’ run with two more touchdown passes in a matter of three minutes and six seconds. Burns caught the ﬁrst from McClelland to make it 56-32, then Armstrong’s pitch-and-catch on a ﬂair pass went for 95 yards, as McClelland ran in the twopoint conversion to make it a two-score game (56-40) with two minutes to go. Gallia Academy’s other touchdown was a simple Boo Pullins 2-yard run with 8:51 to play in the ﬁrst half. The 14-14 tie was as close as the Blue Devils got to the Redmen before the 56-54 ﬁnal. McClelland carried 13 times for 88 yards, as Pullins posted 61 yards on 11 attempts. Henry had seven receptions for 126 yards for GAHS, as Burns boasted six for 116, John Stout three for 55 and Cory Call four for 44. Armstrong added 106 yards and Pullins 25 on two catches apiece.

Adkins, who also had TD runs of nine and 60 yards, amounted 192 yards on only 15 rushes —while Cameron Barnette burned the Blue Devils for ﬁve touchdown runs, including a 54-yarder midway through the third quarter. Barnette ﬁnished with 190 yards on 29 carries, as Rock Hill had just two pass attempts with one completion. Gallia Academy returns home, and returns to OVC action, next Friday night against Ironton.

We were knocking on the door a few times early, but we had some mistakes that could have made for a much different game headed into halftime. “We just have to keep working and we have to keep believing in one another.

The Eastern football team was held to 123 yards of total offense, an average of just 2.46 yards per play, as the Eagles dropped a 31-0 decision to Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division host Trimble on Friday night at Glouster Memorial Stadium in Athens County. The Eagles (3-5, 2-4 TVC Hocking) were clicking on defense to start the game, holding Trimble (6-2, 6-1) scoreless through the ﬁrst quarter of play. The Tomcats broke through for the ﬁrst time just 45 seconds into the second quarter, however, as Cameron Kittle tossed a screen pass to Max Hooper, who went 28 yards for the score and then kicked in the extrapoint. The hosts scored again with 6:24 left in the ﬁrst half, as Kittle broke a 20-yard run for six points. The Tomcats managed one more touchdown before the half, as Hooper ran into the endzone from 10 yards out with just 19 seconds left. Bryce Richards then caught a two-point conversion pass from Kittle, making the THS lead 21-0 at the break.

It is easy to see why some hunters are alarmed about EHD, especially if that big buck they have been seeing on the trail camera suddenly drops off the radar, but the fact remains that there is nothing anyone can do about it; the longer this endless summer continues without a couple of killing frosts, the longer the outbreak will last. However, it is not the end of the world; it does not kill all of the deer, and those that survive seem to develop a level of immunity towards future outbreaks. The Ohio Division of Wildlife is continuing to track suspected EHD cases in deer until after the disease has run its course – or until after a few hard frosts. Deer suffering from EHD will generally be found in creek bottoms or low areas, and these are the ones that the division wants to know about. Suspected EHD cases can be reported to 1-800-WILDLIFE, your county wildlife ofﬁcer, or SWCD wildlife specialist. These deer won’t be tested, since the presence of EHD has already been documented, but it will help document the extent and severity of the ongoing outbreak.

While Houston’s Deshaun Watson has improved each week since taking over at halftime of the season opener, Cleveland’s DeShone Kizer has struggled so much the Browns (0-5) benched him this week as they look to get their ﬁrst win on Sunday at Houston. “I think sometimes it’s good for guys to take a step back and see where they are so they have an opportunity to go back out there and do it again,” Browns coach Hue Jackson said. “This is by no means the end of DeShone Kizer.” Cleveland will look to Kevin Hogan to take over for Kizer, a second-round pick who leads the NFL with nine interceptions this season. Hogan, Cleveland’s fourth-string quarterback at the start of camp, will become the 28th different player to start at the position for the Browns since 1999. Hogan, in his second season, has appeared in four games this year and has thrown for 377 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions. “(He’s) a guy that’s improved from Year 1 to Year 2,” Jackson said. “(He) did a really good job in the offseason of working out some fundamental things to improve.” The Texans (2-3) drafted Watson 12th overall with a pick traded from the Browns, and since he’s taken over he’s helped this offense reach new heights. Houston scored a franchise-record 57 points in a win over the Titans two weeks ago, and Watson threw for ﬁve touchdowns in a loss to the undefeated Chiefs last week. “He rarely makes the same mistake twice,” coach Bill O’Brien said. “I think that’s something that he does a really good job of and that has to continue because there’s no perfect way to play the game. You have to be able to adjust on the ﬂy.” Some things to know about the Browns-Texans game: TWO OF A KIND: This game will feature a pair of defensive ends drafted No. 1 overall in Houston’s Jadeveon Clowney and Cleveland’s Myles Garrett. Clowney, who went No. 1 in 2014, will be tasked with leading Houston’s defense in the wake of Watt’s injury. He’s off to a good start with six tackles for losses, three sacks and a fumble return for a touchdown. Garrett, the ﬁrst pick this year, is just getting going. He made his NFL debut last week after missing the ﬁrst four games with a high ankle sprain. He took no time to make an impact with a sack on his ﬁrst play in a game in which he ﬁnished with two sacks. He said seeing how Clowney has developed after being slowed by injuries early in his career was encouraging for him as he dealt with his injury. “His career at ﬁrst was a little bit rocky because of the injuries (and) not being able to play full time,” Garrett said. “Watching him bounce back and see the way he’s responded, it’s good to see. It gave me a little bit of hope when I was out.” seven points and Serena Smith with six. Gabby Carey and Baelyn Carey each had ﬁve points, Sydney Rutter and Nicole Sammons added four points apiece, while Taylor Walls and Kyleigh Heiler earned three and two points respectively.

They’ve done it only a handful of times throughout their 50-season history. By going against their stripes, they may have saved this season. After two home games without a touchdown, Cincinnati ﬁred offensive coordinator Ken Zampese, departing from their policy of showing loyalty to coaches during difﬁcult times. It was a huge change that nobody saw coming. It also turned into a jolt that the Bengals needed to salvage their season. The Bengals (2-3) have quarterback Andy Dalton back in form after a rough start . They’ve won two straight. They’re only a game out of ﬁrst place in the AFC North heading into their bye. The switch to Bill Lazor as coordinator has been their best move so far. “I don’t think of it as them responding to me as much as I think right now they believe they can be good,” Lazor said. “And I think that’s a starting point.” The Bengals simply don’t change much during a season, especially not coaches or offensive coordinators. From 1995-2015, they’ve had only four head coaches — Dave Shula, Bruce Coslet, Dick LeBeau and Marvin Lewis, who is entering his 15th season despite an 0-7 mark in the playoffs. During that 22-year span, they had ﬁve offensive coordinators — Coslet, Ken Anderson, Bob Bratkowski, Jay Gruden and Hue Jackson. Coslet was promoted to head coach. Anderson lasted four seasons before he was replaced. Bratkowski was ﬁred after calling plays for 10 seasons, a tenure longer than any Bengals head coach except Lewis. Gruden and Jackson left to become head coaches in Washington and Cleveland. So when they ﬁred Zampese after only 18 games as coordinator, had to learn and move on. They’ve done a really great job of that — around him and with him — in every way.” Dalton twisted his left ankle in the ﬁrst half of a 20-16 win over Buffalo on Sunday and ﬁnished the game limping, with the ankle heavily taped. He threw for a season-high 328 yards and led a late comeback. “We’re getting better and playing closer to the way we know we can play,” Dalton said. The defense has kept the Bengals in it, which also is a bit of a surprise. They decided to Matt Ludtke | AP file give their young players Bill Lazor’s elevation to offensive coordinator after the Bengals fired Ken Zampese was a big change signiﬁcant roles this seafor a team that has emphasized loyalty to its coaches.

The whole building games; he has thrown for 66 passes for 614 yards Unbeaten Kansas City looks to get even with Steelers KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Alex Smith lived through last year’s playoff loss to Pittsburgh, then relived it countless times on video, trying in vain to learn how the Chiefs lost to a team that didn’t even score a touchdown. With the Steelers rolling into town on Sunday, he had a chance to see it all unfold again. “Any time you play an opponent in the recent past, you look back on that stuff,” the Kansas City quarterback said. “If they had success, are they going to repeat the same stuff? Do things different? “We’re a different team now as well,” Smith added, “so you relish the opportunity a little bit, the chance. But you look at it. It does bring back memories of a missed opportunity.” Smith is right on many accounts: The Chiefs did miss their opportunity that cold January day at Arrowhead Stadium, squandering a strong defensive effort in an 18-16 defeat. The Chiefs (5-0) have every intention of changing the script, too. On offense, they’re more dynamic than the one that managed 227 yards total against the Steelers. Smith is now the league’s top-rated passer, Tyreek Hill has built on his dramatic debut season and rookie Kareem Hunt has emerged as one of the league’s premier running backs. On defense, they return just about everyone that held Ben Roethlisberger and Co. in check. “You take care of the ball, you play great special teams and defense you have a real chance of being 5-0. That’s why they are,” Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said. “We respect it, we don’t fear it.” Especially since the same video of the previous meeting — the one Smith and the Chiefs have spent the entire offseason lamenting — is likely to ﬁll the Steelers (3-2) with some muchneeded conﬁdence. They’re coming off a fall... NATIONAL HEALTHCARE letdown last week against Jacksonville, when Roethlisberger tossed ﬁve picks, two of them returned for touchdowns, and the Jaguars rolled to a 30-9 victory. “I don’t know about that,” Roethlisberger said. “We’re still top of the AFC North. We’re right there in the hunt in the AFC. So I think you guys are much more panicked that we are.” ON THE ROAD SECURITY & SAFETY WEEK BUY LOCAL SAVE LOCAL 2014 Kia Soul 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 2015 Toyota 4 Runner5 2014 BMW 328i xDrive 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT 2012 Honda CRV EX-L October 8-14, 2017 As Pleasant Valley Hospital celebrates National Healthcare Security and Safety Week, we’d like to express our gratitude to our team of dedicated security and safety professionals.
