MEIGS COUNTY — With Halloween fast approaching, and numerous events scheduled to take place throughout the county, now is the time to prepare for a safe Halloween. The Mayo Clinic, the American Academy of Pediatrics and Safe Kids Worldwide provide ideas and tips for trick-or-treating, pumpkin carving and other activities. When considering the perfect Halloween costume, there are many things to be considered. Brighter costumes, glow sticks or reflective tape may stand out more as trick-or-treating often does not conclude until after dark. Consider placing reflective tape on trick or treat bags as well to increase visibility. Consider the weather when determining the size of the costume. Cooler temperatures may require clothing to be worn underneath the costume. Also, be cautious of oversized shoes or high heels which may be a tripping hazard. Masks, accessories and props can also cause hazards. Look for costumes, wigs and accessories which are flame resistant. Do not use decorative contact lenses without an eye examination and a prescription from an eye care professional. This can cause pain, inflammation, and serious eye disorders and infections, which may lead to permanent vision loss. Eat a good meal prior to trick-or-treating or parties so that kids will not be as likely to fill up on sweet treats. When out trick-ortreating, children should be accompanied by an adult. For older children who may go alone or with a group of friends, plan a route and set specific times to check in. Only go to houses with the porch light on and never enter a house or vehicle.

(AP) — A report by the National Transportation Safety Board says the design of a railcar that leaked chlorine at a New Martinsville plant had been under scrutiny. The NTSB issued the preliminary report Monday detailing the Aug. 27 chlorine gas spill at the Axiall Natrium plant, according to media reports. The report describes a 46-inch-long crack on one end of the tank car that leaked. The crack opened up on a reinforcement pad for part of the car’s underframe called the sub sill. “During the 2½ hours after the crack developed, the entire 90-ton load of chlorine released from the crack and formed a large vapor cloud that migrated south from the Axiall facility along the Ohio River valley,” the report said. The tank built in 1981 had a particular type of sub sill that the Federal Railroad Administration had issued a safety advisory for in 2006. The advisory noted defects including cracks in some tank cars equipped with the sub sills. A series of solutions to the problem have been recommended.

Member SIPC. �NEWS Daily Sentinel Wednesday, October 19, 2016 3 Advocates in Ohio seek to ease voter fears COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Nonpartisan voting rights groups in Ohio are joining the state’s Republican elections chief in pushing back against suggestions by the Trump campaign that the state’s election could be compromised. In a conference call Tuesday, the League of Women Voters of Ohio, the Ohio Voter Rights Coalition, America Votes and other advocates sought to reassure Ohioans the presidential battleground state’s voting system is secure. They encouraged people to call an election protection hotline — 866-OUR-VOTE — on Election Day if they encounter problems. The line is staffed by trained volunteers and cosponsored by a national lawyers’ group that helps assure election integrity. Separate hotlines also are available for Spanish speakers and speakers of Asian languages. The reassurances follow vice presidential candidate Mike Pence’s remarks during a campaign swing through Ohio on Monday urging supporters of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump to take steps to participate in protecting the election from interference. Secretary of State Jon Husted has reiterated this week his confidence that Ohio’s electoral process is secure. Husted has been commenting regularly on the situation since late last month, when the director of the FBI told Congress of “attempted intrusions” into voter registration databases around the country and said the agency is looking “very, very hard” at Russian hackers who may try to disrupt the U.S. election. Husted and the voter advocates emphasize that Ohio’s voting machines are not connected to the internet. Carrie Davis, of the League of Women Voters, said votes are also protected in other ways. She said each vote in Ohio produces a paper backup that can be doublechecked by the voter; the order candidates are listed on ballots rotates to make rigging harder; tabula- tions are cross-checked by hand, then audited; and Ohio’s election administration is decentralized and bipartisan. “We have a very clear message to voters: Don’t allow the naysayers to undermine your faith in democracy,” Davis said.

TVM �E ditorial 4 Wednesday, October 19, 2016 Daily Sentinel THEIR VIEW The case for progressive taxation By Perry L. Weed Contributing Columnist Our public finance is supported by taxation. As Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes observed, “taxes are what we pay for civilized society.” Yet at a time of unprecedented wealth inequality in America, progressivity in our tax system has declined. There are many causes, among them, Republican control in Washington throughout the early 2000s, the dominance of market ideology and anti-tax movements. A primary reason, however, has been failure of persuasion and the scarcity of well-articulated arguments for progressivity. The case for the return to a more graduated, and hence more fair, income tax structure rests on arguments that animated our politics in the past and on principles representing century-old consensus. Those who gain the most in income and wealth from the American society and economic infrastructure not only have the greatest ability to pay, they also derive far and away the greatest benefits. The American tax burden provides far more than the usual and obvious benefits that all Americans enjoy — national defense, police protection, roads and highways. It also sustains an elaborate, orderly, stable and subsidized U.S. economy. Wall Street works because property interests are protected and regulated. Within a framework of tax justice, founded in Republican and liberal ideals, it follows that those who benefit the most would pay the most. Many goods and services result from democratic processes and are provided at public expense. Only government can provide certain functions, e.g., enforcing personal and property security, and ensuring a fair and stable economic environment. The Interstate Highway System — the greatest public works project in history — the G.I. Bill, the internet, the most powerful military ever and currently half the nation’s annual medical coverage, all have resulted from public programs. In partnership with the private sector, government works. The general welfare, that which makes everyone better off, is grounded in social contract and democratic processes. The concept reflects the community’s judgment of what constitutes fairness and how to maximize the stability and aggregate welfare of the society as a whole. Western advanced societies have honored the tradition of equal worth of all citizens and the Golden Rule. Tax policies can sustain these norms. In a mature economy like ours, with poor rates of savings, slow or faltering growth, and a tax system that actually rewards debt over savings, the government can, when needed, evoke a counter-cyclical intervention and stimulate spending by adjusting tax incentives and increasing public expenditures. Progressive taxation during these periods expands spending on the nation’s vital infrastructure and boosts consumption, stimulating economic activity. Donald Trump, following Republican orthodoxy, has put forward a massive tax cut as the centerpiece of his economic program. It would mostly benefit taxpayers in the top percent. He claims this program will produce growth and thereby magically pay for itself. Bruce Bartlett, who served under both Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush, drafted the Kemp-Roth tax bill, the basis of the Reagan tax cuts. Bartlett disagrees with Trump. Bartlett, in an August op-ed in the New York Times, recognized that “the Reagan tax cut played only a secondary role in the 1980s boom.” Furthermore, he pointed out that Reagan, concerned about deficits, “supported 11 different increases from 1982 to 1988 that collectively took back half of the 1981 tax cut.” Bartlett also noted that the “economy tanked during the Bush years despite numerous large tax cuts” and that “there is far more evidence from the last 35 years showing that tax increases do more to stimulate growth than tax cuts.” America has spawned a proliferation of millionaires and billionaires. Middle class incomes have stagnated. The wealth of upper income Americans has steadily increased, creating, in effect, two Americas. Excessive concentrations of wealth breed an elitist class and smother a free, vigorous democracy. Money dominates political campaigns. Congress has neither the political will nor the stamina to grapple with tax reform. A fairer and simpler tax code with far fewer tax breaks and loopholes would help to restore much needed trust and respect to our tax system. As inequality increases, power shifts away from middle class and the working poor, and pessimism, discontent and anger assert themselves. This is happening in America right now. Tax justice is critical to social stability and economic progress. The United States — the great experiment in democracy — has become a decidedly unequal society and it is rapidly becoming more so. The modulating influence of progressive taxation is a tool at our disposal. Perry L. Weed is an attorney and the founder and director of the Economic Club of Annapolis, Md.

THEIR VIEW Campaign finance reform achieves priority status By Hedrick Smith Contributing columnist What got lost in the mudslinging of the second presidential debate was an important watershed in U.S. political history — the political reforms that a majority of Americans back in opinion polls gained an advocate moving closer to the White House. Virtually unreported in the uproar over the venomous clashes on stage was Hillary Clinton’s telling answer to Beth Miller, a citizen participant in the town hall. Miller observed that the choice of the next Supreme Court justice was perhaps the most important aspect of the presidential election and then asked: “What would you prioritize as the most important aspect of selecting a Supreme Court justice?” Clinton shot back: “I would want to see the Supreme Court reverse Citizens United and get dark, unaccountable money out of our politics.” Donald Trump sidestepped, boasting that “I’m not taking all of this big money from all of these different corporations like she’s doing.” But in fact, Trump’s campaign has teamed with the Republican National Committee to raise corporate and billionaire mega money, just as Clinton has. And Trump made no pledge to reform the system. For the future, what counted was Clinton’s stance as the first major party nominee pledging to work for campaign finance reform in the White House. Clinton’s pledge echoes Republican Presidents Teddy Roosevelt and William Howard Taft who thundered a century ago against the corrupting influence of corporate money and robber baron donors in American election campaigns. They eventually got corporate campaign donations outlawed in 1907 — until the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision in 2010. What is striking in this year’s presidential race is that for the first time in modern campaign history, multiple contenders openly endorsed the populist charge that American democracy has been corrupted by mega money from billionaires and corporations, and then called for reforms to re-establish a more level playing field. Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, of course, broke the ice. It was his clarion call for a political revolution that fired the insurgent Sanders candidacy and enabled him to win 13.1 million votes in Democratic primaries and carry 23 states. Sanders alone staked his bid on a populist demand for sweeping reforms to restore campaign funding limits, to break up partisan gerrymandering of congressional districts, and to enact voter protections and public financing of campaigns. Under pressure from Sanders, Clinton was moved to promise that if elected, in her first 30 days, she would “propose a constitutional amendment” to overturn the Citizens United decision and to restore the power of Congress and the states to regulate campaign money. She pledged to appoint justices who understand that Citizens United “was a disaster for our democracy,” to back legislation to empower small donors and to require federal contractors to report their campaign donations. Now, in the homestretch, she has reaffirmed that commitment. But the germ of reform spread far beyond Democrats. During the primaries, it blossomed in the stump speeches and media interviews of Republicans Jeb Bush, John Kasich and Lind- state of Ohio and a key underpinning of the Republican majority in the House. “We need to eliminate gerrymandering,” Kasich told the Columbus (Ohio) Dispatch. “We’ve got to have more competitive districts.” Both Sanders and President Barack Obama also advocated gerrymander reform as essential to giving voters more authentic choices in elections and to re-establish a more level playing field. But Clinton did not adopt gerrymander reform. Where Clinton and Sanders have come together is in promoting a constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision; in advocating tough new disclosure laws requiring that all campaign spending be rapidly made public so that voters can see who bankrolls whom; in calling for a federal matching fund system to multiply the impact of small donor contributions; and in protecting voters’ rights at the polls. But the key question remains: Will all this rhetoric turn into action after the election, especially among Congressional Republicans who have so far staunchly blocked reform legislation. For them, the sheer fact that several GOP presidential contenders have endorsed reforms signals a palpable shift in the political terrain. Reform now has bipartisan acceptance at the summit of American politics, and if Clinton wins, it will have a committed advocate in the White House — as well as Sanders in the Senate to hold her feet to the fire. say Graham. Among the major contenders, only Sens. Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio resisted the reform bug. Trump never called for reform, but he repeatedly mocked his Republican primary rivals as Lilliputian puppets beholden to mega donors aiming to buy influence with their contributions to candidate super PACs. “People love the fact that I’m putting my own money in,” Trump bragged, “unlike Bush, who is totally controlled by these people, and unlike Hillary and honestly Marco and everybody. Ted Cruz, he’s got a lot of people putting big money in.” The biggest flip-flop came from Bush. Before bowing out, he swung from champion fundraiser to caustic fund rebuker. Having personally compiled the largest bankroll in super PAC history, more than $100 million, Bush underwent a battlefield conversion. “This is a ridiculous system we have now,” Bush told CNN, “where you have campaigns that struggle to raise money directly and they can’t be held accountable for the spending of the super PAC that’s their affiliate,” which is precisely what candidate Bush had been doing since early 2015. Once eager to keep donors secret, Bush came out for “total transparency” on campaign funders. To stem the uninhibited flow of campaign cash, Bush said he would try to switch Supreme Court rulings or, if that failed, “there is a growing sense that we need to amend the Constitution,” thus endorsing the position already taken by Graham. As an advocate for reform, Kasich put his priority on funding for small campaign donors to counteract billionaires and for ending partisan gerrymandering, a wellentrenched strategy of Republicans in his home Hedrick Smith is former Washington bureau chief of The New York Times, author of “Who Stole the American Dream?” and executive editor of reclaimtheamericandream.org.

For her part, Clinton steps up as a flood of hacked emails provides an unprecedented realtime look into the machinations of a presidential campaign — hers. In the disclosed material, Clinton is shown taking positions in paid, private speeches at odds with some of her public pronouncements. And she is revealed as resistant to advice by aides to apologize for her email practices and clear the air. That’s all fodder for the debate. Trump, never known for self-censorship, has pronounced himself “unshackled” at last in the final weeks of the campaign. That has people wondering what Trump possibly has left to unleash. Moderator Chris Wallace of Fox News will have new information about both candidates to delve into during this debate. For Trump, there is the drip-drip drama of women who have come forward to allege that he went after them with unwanted sexual advances. For Clinton, there is the drip-drip of MIDDLEPORT — Thursday, Oct. 27, 6-7 p.m. MIDDLEPORT — The Meigs County Council on Aging will be handing out treats at the former Middleport High School from 6-7 p.m. on Oct. 27.

Odds are both candidates have saved some fresh theatrics for the final debate. MODERATION Wallace has served notice he won’t try to “truth squad” the debate.

GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — Justin Beaver went around the wall for the Defenders’ only goal. Unfortunately for Ohio Valley Christian School, John Legge went right at it. Legge scored the match’s final two goals in a span of three minutes and 40 seconds, and visiting Teays Valley Christian defeated the Defenders 3-1 in Monday’s soccer match on the OVCS campus. Legge broke a 1-1 tie with 10 minutes remaining, then scored his second tally at the 6:20 mark — giving the Lions a comfortable 3-1 lead. While most of the match was played in the Lions’ offensive third, they couldn’t crack the scoreboard until the 27:36 mark of the opening half, when Sydney Schliesser scored to make it 1-0. The Lions led 1-0 at halftime, before Beaver — the Defenders’ goalkeeper who made several saves — stepped out of the net to take a free kick only three minutes and 17 seconds into the sec- ond half. With a wall in front, Beaver nicely hooked the ball around — and beat TVCS keeper Misha Saidi down low for the equalizer. The Lions, however, continued to rocket shots at Beaver — before Legge finally got his two goals. TVCS, in addition to posting 15 shots on goal, also held a 6-1 advantage in corner kicks. Saidi saved one shot for the Lions, as Legge led in shots for TVCS with four.

Not every fight’s going to be tilted one way.” Ohio State went into its 30-23 overtime win over Wisconsin averaging 52 points a game and its average margin of victory was 42 points a game. Defensive end Sam Hubbard said, “I’m honestly kind of glad it happened to us. We really needed to kind of get smacked in the mouth or face some adversity, at least.” Defensive end Jalyn Holmes said, “That shows you what you’re really made of. It was a great game, a hostile environment. We learned a lot about each other. We learned we don’t fold when pressure comes. That’s good to know.” Linebacker Chris Worley labeled the win “a battle scar” and “our first true test.” “We have a resilient group of guys who won’t take ‘No,’ for an answer. We need games like that in a season, especially if you’re looking to go the distance,” he said. “No team will go 15-0 and beat everyone by 40 points. That’s not the way this game works. We celebrated that one for a pretty good, long while.” No. 2 Ohio State (6-0, 3-0 Big Ten) will play at Penn State (4-2, 2-1 Big Ten) on Saturday night. OSU’s last trip to Penn State, a 31-24 overtime win, reminds Meyer a lot of the win at Wisconsin. Similarity No. 1 is that quarterback J.T. Barrett stepped up in overtime in both situations. He threw the game-winning touchdown pass to Noah Brown on Saturday night and scored both of OSU’s overtime touchdowns at Penn State two years ago after a sub-par performance in regulation. “In that kind of environment, our quarterback was not playing well. We had a pick six, I believe, in that game, and he also had a second degree MCL sprain, and here we go. We’re going to go play overtime down in front of their end zone, and we’re seven points behind,” Meyer said, looking back to the 2014 Penn State game. “So the script See BUCKEYES | 7 OVP SPORTS SCHEDULE Wednesday, October 19 Volleyball Waverly at Gallia Academy, 6 p.m. Meigs at Athens, 6 p.m. College Soccer Rio Grande women at Shawnee State, 2 p.m. Rio Grande men at Shawnee State, 4 p.m. Thursday, October 20 Volleyball South Gallia at Eastern, 6 p.m. Symmes Valley at Southern, 6 p.m. Wahama at Hannan, 6 p.m. Winfield at Point Pleasant, 6 p.m. Soccer Waverly at Gallia Academy, 5 p.m. Cross Country Point Pleasant at AA-Regional, TBA College Volleyball Rio Grande at Shawnee State, 7 p.m. Alex Hawley/OVP Sports Point Pleasant senior Karlee Edmonds receives a serve during the Lady Knights’ victory over Wahama, on Monday in Mason.

That’s because the South Gallia High School volleyball team, in dominant fashion on Monday, swept the host Ironton St. Joseph Flyers 25-17, 25-8 and 25-12 in a Division IV sectional semifinal tilt. The Lady Rebels, which raised their record to 7-16, are the 11th-seeded squad in the sectional — and pulled off the upset of the sixth-seeded Flyers. The win advanced South Gallia to Thursday’s sectional championship, where the Rebels will encounter third-seeded Eastern. Monday’s victory was also South Gallia’s fifth in its last seven matches. Against Ironton St. Joe, Erin Evans amassed 11 kills and Rachal Colburn collected 10, while Christine Griffith garnered two blocks and Colburn added one. The Lady Rebels racked up several service points as well, as Griffith and Taylor Burnette each had a dozen — and Hannah Shafer and Olivia Hornsby had eight points apiece. Evans added six service points, as Griffith served up six aces, while Burnette had another five. Burnette also set for seven assists, while Maddie Simpson led the defense with five digs. South Gallia, which lost its first two matches against Eastern this season, will face the Eagles on Thursday at 6 p.m. Paul Boggs can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2106 Bengals facing big issues, languishing as midpoint nears CINCINNATI (AP) — The Bengals returned the nucleus of their playoff team to make another run at getting that elusive first-round win. As the season reaches its midpoint, just reaching the playoffs will be the big challenge. A 35-17 loss in New England on Sunday marked the second week in a row that they’ve been drubbed on the road by a playoff-caliber team. They were coming off a 28-14 loss in Dallas that left them determined to finally get it right. Instead, the same problems persisted on both offense and defense during a second-half meltdown in New England. The Bengals (2-4) are off to their worst start since 2010. The defending AFC North champions trail Pittsburgh by two games and Baltimore by one heading into a matchup against intrastate rival Cleveland (0-6) at Paul Brown Stadium on Sunday. It’s the sixth time during coach Marvin Lewis’ 14 seasons that the Bengals have started 2-4 or worse. The five previous times, they failed to finish with a winning record. Their franchise-record streak of five straight playoff appearances is in jeopardy. “We have an expectation here and we haven’t been playing up to it,” Andy Dalton said on Monday. There’s still ample chance to win the division. Cincinnati has two games left with Cleveland, two with Baltimore and one with Pittsburgh. So far, the Bengals have played like an also-ran. The offensive line is in upheaval, and the defense has gotten shredded. There’s a lot to fix with the season’s midpoint approaching. Last season, the Bengals opened 8-0, matched the franchise record with 12 wins, then lost in the opening round of the playoffs for an NFL-record fifth season in a row. “It’s different,” Lewis said. “This isn’t last year’s team. The margin for error we have right now is pretty thin.” The most glaring problems have been on the offensive line. Right tackle Cedric Ogbuehi got benched during the third quarter in New England, though he was back for the final series. Ogbuehi, a first-round pick last season, has struggled in his past two games. Lewis said Ogbuehi would start against the Browns. Buckeyes and be able to make plays. It was just one of the things you have to fight through mentally From page 6 and with God’s help I was written.

POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — A long time coming. The Point Pleasant boys soccer team captured the program’s first postseason victory in five years Monday night following a 4-0 decision over visiting Ravenswood in a Class AA Region 4, Section 1 tournament match at Ohio Valley Bank Track and Field in Mason County. The Black Knights (9-11-1) — who last won a tournament game while advancing to the Class AA regionals in 2011 — made a strong statement in their Class AA return as the hosts scored a pair of goals in each half while rolling into the next round. PPHS, with the win, advances to the Class AA Region 4, Section 1 semifinals on Tuesday night when it travels to Nitro for a 5 p.m. contest. The Black Knights outshot the Red Devils (6-11-4) by a sizable 26-9 overall margin, which included a 19-6 advantage in shots on goal. More impressively, PPHS claimed a 19-5 edge in shots after the intermission — all while clinging to at least a two-goal cushion. Wood — who coached the Black Knights to their last tournament victories in 2011 — was proud to see his program get back in the postseason win column. More importantly, he was impressed with Bryan Walters/OVP Sports Point Pleasant junior Alex Carlisle boots a goal past Ravenswood keeper Josh Mize (52) during the first half of Monday night’s Class AA Region 4, Section 1 boys soccer play-in contest at OVB Field in Point Pleasant, W.Va. how well his kids took a workmanlike approach to the task at hand Monday night. “This was our first goal of the year, to pick up a tournament win. We haven’t won a tournament game since our sectional title five years ago, so this is something good for all of us to build on,” Wood said. “We didn’t play our best game of the year, but we came out, took care of business and did what we had to to move on. The Black Knights outshot the guests by a 9-4 margin in the opening half, including a 6-2 edge in shots on goal. PPHS also managed three of the first four shots of the game, the last of which resulted in the first goal of the night. Alex Carlisle booted a long ball up the field, which led to Austin Adams tracking the ball down for a 1-on-1 break away opportunity in front of the net. Adams gathered control and fired a point blank shot that found the back of the net with 28:45 remaining, allowing the hosts to secure a 1-0 advantage. With under three minutes remaining in the half, Austin Nott had a direct kick from around 40 yards out. The junior booted a beauty directly toward the right corner of the goal that ultimately landed on the foot of Carlisle, who then made a 1-on-1 move and netted the ball for a 2-0 PPHS edge with 2:42 remaining. Alex Lenkov joined the scoring mix with 34:24 remaining in the second half after netting a left-footer from 12 yards out on a rebound off of a crossing pass, allowing Point to take a 3-0 edge. Adams concluded the scoring with a breakaway goal with 19:40 left in regulation, with an assist going to Lenkov. Ravenswood claimed a small 3-2 advantage in corner kicks and received 15 saves from keeper Josh Mize. Cole Walker stopped six shots for the hosts while pitching his first career postseason shutout. Ravenswood managed its first shot attempt of the second half with 21:10 remaining on the clock. Bryan Walters can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2101. Big 12 presidents decide to pass on expansion GRAPEVINE, Texas (AP) — The leaders of the Big 12 decided the conference was just fine the way it is. Ten is enough. Expansion is off the agenda. “This was not a decision to not expand,” Commissioner Bob Bowlsby said. “This was an endorsement and reinvestment in the 10 that we had.” After three months of analyzing, vetting and interviewing possible new members, the Big 12 announced Monday it would not expand following a six-hour meeting with the conference’s university presidents and Bowlsby. Oklahoma president David Boren said the decision was unanimous and no specific schools were discussed or voted on during the meeting. Bowlsby said his only recommendation to the board was to bring the expansion process to an end. He said that while the conference could one day re-open the subject, expansion is now off the agenda. Conference officials held interviews in September with Air Force and Colorado State from the Mountain West; Central Florida, Cincinnati, Connecticut, Houston, South Florida, SMU and Tulane from the American Athletic Conference; and BYU, which is a football independent with its other sports in the West Coast Conference. “Gathering this information has not been a waste of time,” Boren said. “Down the road, who knows? Circumstances change.” UConn President Susan Herbst said it was a good experience to go through the process and get a better understanding of where UConn stands and what is has to offer. “Most of the schools they were talking to were in our conference,” she said. “I think that shows, without question, that our conference plays at their level and are athletically and academically appropriate to be a Power Five.” The Big 12 has been tossing around the idea of expansion for almost two years as it tries to find ways to increase revenue and improve the conference’s chances to make the College Football Playoff. The Big 12 was left out of the first playoff in 2014, but conference champion Oklahoma made it last season. Boren had said the Big 12 was “psychologically disadvantaged” by being the smallest Power Five league and the only one without a football cham- pionship game. Boren said Monday his interest in expansion was tied to his desire for the Big 12 to start a television network like the ones the Big Ten, Southeastern Conference and Pac-12 have and the one the Atlantic Coast Conference is on target to start with ESPN in 2019. Once it was determined that the market was not there for a network, his interest in expansion cooled. The Big 12 announced earlier this year it was bringing back its football championship game in 2017, no matter its composition. But with only 10 teams, a title game is not a natural fit for a league that plays a round-robin schedule. In June, the conference announced record payouts to members of $30 million each, and expansion talk seemed to fade. A month later, school presidents were briefed by consultants who explained how the conference could bolster its playoff chances by adding schools and boost revenue. It was after that last board meeting the Big 12 announced its presidents had given Bowlsby the go-ahead to do a comprehensive look into expansion and possible candidates. Boren and Bowlsby said at the time the conference would consider adding two or four new members. Or none. The Big 12 never committed to expansion. Two new members would have meant an extra $50 million in TV revenue per year for the Big 12 on contracts with ESPN and Fox that run through 2025. Current members would have shared the majority of that money at first; TCU and West Virginia joined the Big 12 in 2012, but they did not receive full revenue shares until this year. The networks have not been keen on the idea of paying the Big 12 to add schools. “We don’t think expansion in the Big 12 is a good idea for the conference. We think it will be dilutive to the product in the short term. In the long term, it’s probably harmful to the future of the conference,” Fox Sports President Eric Shanks said earlier this month at Sports Media and Technology conference, according to the Sports Business Journal. Bowlsby would not comment on any discussion the Big 12 has had with its television partners, but did say the addition of a championship game creates an opportunity to re-open talks about that game’s value. Silver: NBA All-Star Game in Charlotte ‘a priority’ CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — NBA Commissioner Adam Silver says returning the All-Star game to Charlotte in 2019 is “a high priority,” providing there’s a resolution to a North Carolina law that restricts the rights of LGBT people. The NBA moved the 2017 All-Star Game out of Charlotte because it felt the law known as House Bill 2 was discriminatory. Silver spoke Tuesday following a ceremony in Charlotte in which Hornets owner Michael Jordan unveiled the first of three refurbished neighborhood basketball courts. He said: “We were in an unfortunate position that we were moving the game, so for me it is a high priority given the investments in the arena, given the investments in the team that Michael and his ownership group has made, and the city and state have made in the Hornets.” Several concerts and sporting events have been relocated from North Carolina because of HB2. �CLASSIFIEDS 8 Wednesday, October 19, 2016 Miscellaneous Notices Help Wanted General NOTICE OHIO VALLEY PUBLISHING CO.

By Dave Green �SPORTS 10 Wednesday, October 19, 2016 Daily Sentinel Talladega could eliminate some of NASCAR’s top names CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Brad Keselowski thought playing it safe over two races would slide him into the third round of NASCAR’s playoffs. Then he wrecked at Kansas Speedway and plummeted to the bottom of the Chase standings. Now Keselowski is facing elimination at Talladega Superspeedway. Also in trouble? Joey Logano, his Team Penske teammate, and at least one driver from Joe Gibbs Racing. It’s hardly the scenario Keselowski predicted a week ago when he sat in the middle of the Chase standings with five drivers clumped together facing elimination. By his estimation, the four drivers knocked from the Chase field would come from that group. He figured the fifth would win a race to advance into the round of eight. Keselowski got that part cor- rect: Kevin Harvick’s win on Sunday took him from last in the Chase standings into the third round. What he didn’t predict: Contact that led to a 38th-place finish at Kansas. Now Keselowski is 11th in the standings headed to Talladega Superspeedway, where the field will be cut from 12 to eight. Although he’s suddenly in very dangerous territory, he didn’t seem overly worried and doesn’t consider this week’s race a must win. Keselowski is a four-time winner at Talladega, including a 2014 must-win victory that pushed him from the brink of elimination into the third round. He’s also the winner of the last two restrictor-plate races this year, at Daytona in July and Talladega in May. “I am not worried about it,” he said. “Talladega has been good to me and I am going to drive my butt off and at the end of the day I have faith that if it is meant to be, it is meant to be. We can’t get down. There is a long way to go still.” What a bizarre second round this has been, beginning with the opener at Charlotte, where five Chase drivers finished 30th or worse. That included Denny Hamlin, one of the mighty Toyota drivers from JGR, who had an engine failure while running second. He needed a strong recovery at Kansas, but instead had a self-described “terrible” race in which “everything went wrong.” Hamlin sounded like a driver frustrated with errors that were out of his control and led to him falling to 10th in the standings. But he’s a past winner at Talladega — if JGR and Toyota can give him the equipment he needs. “I’ve got confidence I can win every single week on the race track,” he said. “It’s just, this is a team sport, and you’ve got to have every facet of the car and the team all put together and we’ve just got to execute.” Hamlin of all drivers understands the complexity of Sunday’s race at Talladega. Only Jimmie Johnson and Harvick, winners of the first two races in the second round, are safe and breathing easy. Even though the standings show only seven points separate Logano and Autin Dillon, tied for eighth, from Keselowski in 11th, anyone in the field can be kicked out after Talladega. Hamlin was second in the standings at Talladega last year, but finished 37th and was eliminated. That means none of the Gibbs drivers are guaranteed anything, and odds are at least one of them will be knocked out on Sunday. Same goes for the two Penske drivers. Con- sidering where they are in the standings, it will be difficult for both Keselowski and Logano to advance out of Talladega. So the stage is set for a walkoff home run that could save the season for the winner at Talladega. Among those who will be swinging the fences is Chase Elliott, the rookie who has found himself in the second round of the Chase but last in the standings. Elliott is 25 points behind the cutoff, and almost certainly must win at Talladega to remain in the playoff field. Should he pull it off, it would be the first Sprint Cup win of his career. He won the pole at Talladega earlier this year and finished fifth, so anything is possible. “I will go there and race our hearts out and try to win, I guess,” Elliott said. “That’s about all we can do.” Big 12’s playoff hopes rest with Baylor, WVU By Luke Meredith Associated Press The Big 12 has hardly been mentioned in any playoff discussions. Yet Baylor and West Virginia remain very much alive for a spot in the postseason. The Bears (6-0, 3-0 Big 12) and Mountaineers (5-0, 2-0) have quietly racked up impressive seasons so far and they’re each shooting up the Top 25 . Baylor moved from 11th to ninth this week after thrashing Kansas 49-7. West Virginia’s 48-17 win at Texas Tech helped it jump from 20th all the way to No. 12. “We’ve still got some things we can get better at … but being 6-0 right now, I think at the start of the season, no matter how you got to it, you’d feel pretty good about that,” Baylor acting head coach Jim Grobe said. If both keep winning, it would set up a de facto Big 12 title game — possibly for a playoff spot — in the season finale in Morgantown on Dec. 3. But should either team make it to December unscathed, they’ll have earned it. Baylor has trips to Texas (3-3, 1-2) and No. 16 Oklahoma (4-2, 3-0) in the next month. The Mountaineers, second only to Baylor among Big 12 teams in scoring defense at 19.4 points per game, host TCU (4-2, 2-1) on Saturday. West Virginia then goes to Oklahoma State (4-2, 2-1), and it also has to face the Longhorns and Sooners. “They play hard. They play physical, and they come downhill at you,” Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury said of West Virginia’s defense. BONDS OUT FOR BAYLOR Grobe said Monday that the Bears are hoping to get a medical redshirt for defensive tackle Byron Bonds, who hasn’t played this season because of a knee injury. Bonds, who played in eight games in 2015, was expected to start for Baylor his season. “I don’t think we’re counting on getting him back. He just didn’t come back from his injury like we had hoped,” Grobe said. LONGHORNS DEFENSE STEPS UP Texas’s defense, which had allowed 50, 49 and 45 points in a three-game skid, did much better in last weekend’s 27-6 home win over Iowa State. The Longhorns held the Cyclones (1-6, 0-4) to 280 yards and just 2.3 yards per carry. It’s not like Iowa State had been struggling on offense either, scoring 40 points per game in its previous three. “It gives the players confidence. But you can’t let one game define (you) and then all of a sudden say, ‘Hey. We’re back,’” Strong said. The Cyclones get a much-needed bye this week. DEDE’S EMERGENCE Oklahoma wide receiver Dede Westbrook’s performance in the last three games has put him in the discussion for Big 12 player of the year. Westbrook, helped by a Sooners rushing attack averaging 202.5 yards per game, caught 26 passes for 574 yards and eight touchdowns in wins over TCU, Texas and Kansas State. He is now tied with Jonathan Giles of Texas Tech for the league lead with 43 receptions. The Red Raiders defense, still smarting from that home loss to the Mountaineers, will look to slow Westbrook down on Saturday. “If you can run the ball effectively, it makes it difficult to take (Westbrook) away you need those other people to handle the run game as well,” Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops said. HE SAID IT “They caught me in a weak moment. I like variety.” — West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen after being caught on camera drinking a Red Bull last weekend. Holgorsen went on to make a somewhat tongue-in-cheek stump speech for Coca-Cola, which sponsors West Virginia’s athletic department.

Fire at Marshall University’s stadium ruled arson HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (AP) — Officials say a fire that damaged electrical wiring at Marshall University’s football stadium in West Virginia has been ruled arson. The Herald-Dispatch reports state Fire Marshal’s spokesman Tim Chastain says they’re offering a $5,000 reward to those with information leading to an arrest in connection with the Sunday night fire at Joan C. Edwards Stadium. Huntington Fire Chief Carl Eastham says crews responded to the scene after receiving reports of the flames. A business owner said several of his portable restroom and hand washing stations were set on fire. Officials say flames from the plastic units, placed against a fence outside the stadium, spread up a light tower. University spokesman Scott Morehouse says it’s possible the damage could affect the start time for Saturday’s game with Charlotte if there’s considerable damage to the lights. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
