GALLIPOLIS — Thanks to a little initiative and collaboration, local businesses and school officials are demonstrating what it takes to make a difference in the lives of students. Mandie Boster of Tuscany Cuccini, coordinator of a developing program that seeks to help “at-risk” youth and improve students’ overall school experience in Gallia County via the support of local businesses, said the group is still brainstorming a name for the project but ideas and plans are progressing fast. “Right now our focus will be on community support of the program, and we are still in the developmental stages of the program,” she said. Boster initially rallied a group of local businesses and school offi- cials in mid-August at the Tuscany Cuccini restaurant in Gallipolis to discuss what the needs of students are in local schools and what kind of aid businesses could provide. “We want them (the students) to know we’re staying. We’re part of this community. We’re not going anywhere” she said. Business representatives and school officials at the group’s initial brainstorming session were: Caleb Duong, with Digital Computing Services, Rochelle Halley, director of Instructional Services for Gallia County Local Schools, Kasey Hall, with Buffalo Wild Wings, Wally Luckeydoo owner of Luckeydoo’s Gym, Francisco Ortiz, owner of Tuscany Cuccini, Josh Donley, principal of Gallia Academy High School, Craig Wright, principal of Gallia Academy Middle School, Roger Mace, superintendent of Gallipolis City Schools and Jude Meyers, superintendent of Gallia County Local Schools. Specifically, the group gathered together to discuss target areas such as attendance, academic achievement, social pressures and the overall well-being of students — areas in which Boster said community support could provide improvement within the lives and futures of individual students. “If they have a different way out, they can have a different outcome,” she said. Some services businesses could provide students with that the group brainstormed included scholarships, bike donations, food donations for school events such as games or pep rallies and establishing a mentor program. Program works to keep children fed during weekend Making a presence Gallia delegation travels to the Ohio Statehouse By Lindsay Kriz lkriz@civitasmedia.com MIDDLEPORT — The process is this: open up a Walmart plastic bag, fill it with $2.10 worth of food, and give it to a child in need. This is the goal of Blessings in a Backpack, an organization that helps fight childhood hunger. Together with Walmart, the organization helps fund Meigs Primary’s own Blessings in a Backpack program, which takes place every week during the school year, according to Blessings in a Backpack Program Coordinator Julie Howard. Volunteers from Rutland Church of God, Middleport Church of Christ and other surrounding places come Thursday evenings to fill the bags with food from Walmart and the Southeast Ohio Foodbank, which are then passed out during the school day Friday by each teacher. This past Thursday was actually Blessings in a Backpack Day, Howard said. “Kids get free or reduced lunch during the week, and then on the weekend they (may) have no meals,” she said. “So this is just like a way for them to have some easy-to-prepare quick snack food on the weekends so they don’t come to school hungry on Monday morning.” According to Howard, because Meigs County qualifies for free and reduced lunch based on the level of unemployment or poverty in the county, every child in the school is eligible for free breakfast and lunch, and each child at Meigs Primary is eligible for Blessings in a Backpack. The program is looking to expand to all students at Meigs Intermediate as well, she said. “We try and put in extra food for breaks, but we’re stuck with the $2.10 price tag because they want to be able to say $80 feeds a child for a year,” Howard said. “And it does. It’s amazing.” For the past three years the Walmart in Mason has given the school $2,000 for the program and AEP Ohio has provided $5,000. This is the second year that the Walmart Foundation and state-giving council has given a portion of the Walmart Foundation Grant to Meigs Local’s Blessings in a BackSee PROGRAM | 5A By Michelle Miller Special to the Sunday Times-Sentinel Amber Gillenwater | Sunday Times-Sentinel Following Friday’s performance of “Be Still and Know He Is God,” the community gathered for a candlelight walk to the banks of the Ohio River in Gallipolis. To those celebrating the Emancipation Celebration, the Ohio River still stands as a symbol of freedom as it once was the last boundary between slaves and freedom as they crossed from what was Virginia into Ohio through the Underground Railroad.

See SUPPORT | 5A GALLIPOLIS — “For 151 years we have struggled to do this on our own and by ourselves, and we have finally come to the conclusion that it will take all of us, as a united front, to make this celebration grow and become a success. So let’s begin tonight, tomorrow and the rest of the weekend to go arm in arm, hand in hand, and shoulder to shoulder. Let not only Gallia County, but the State of Ohio, and the whole country see that this is America, land of the free, and home of the brave.” These were the words of Deacon Glenn Miller, the Vice President of the Gallia County Emancipation Celebration Committee, who echoed this year’s theme of the 151st Annual Emancipation Celebration — “Moving together in unity.” Miller spoke following a candlelight walk to the banks of the Ohio River where those who had ventured out for the first evening of the celebration gathered to kick-off the annual event. During last year’s 150th anniversary celebration, the event began at the Ariel-Ann Carson Dater Performing Arts Centre in downtown Gallipolis, and this year was no different as members of the community gathered together for a homecoming reception at the theatre followed by a performance in the main hall. This year, a musical play was presented by the ladies of Saint Paul AME Church, of Charleston, W.Va. The See FREEDOM | 5A COLUMBUS — A delegation of nearly 40 Gallia County elected officials, business leaders and community members traveled to Columbus on Friday, September 12, to meet with key State department personnel during a Gallia County Legislative Day at the Ohio Statehouse. Organized through the Community Improvement Corporation of Gallia County, with the assistance of the Gallia County Chamber of Commerce staff and Representative Ryan Smith and his staff, the trip allowed local leaders the opportunity to hear from and meet with representatives of the Governor’s Office of Appalachia, JobsOhio, Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services, the Ohio Department of Transportation, Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Ohio Department of Budget Management, as well as Representative Smith and Senator Bob Peterson. The trip was sponsored by Columbia Gas of Ohio, Ohio Valley Bank and Buckeye Power. “It’s always great to host constituents at the Statehouse and help facilitate discussions with various Government agencies. It also helps me make the case to garner the necessary resources to reach our goals,” said Representative Smith. A few of the highlights from the trip include a discussion with Governor’s Office of Appalachia Deputy Director Joy Padgett regarding the current state of the economy in Ohio and efforts being made throughout the region in terms of economic development. “I think we all know small business is the foundation of economic development.

Bad decisions. Abuse at the hands of someone who should have been a protector. Feelings of unworthiness. As water swirled up past his waist — and boats sailed in the distance — he took a final, deep breath on a recent Sunday as two of the pastors at Grace Community Church guided him down into the water and back up on his feet. “Hallelujah!” someone yelled from back on the bank of Lynwood Lake, some 100 feet away. “I’m not the same person,” the 34-year-old heating and air conditioning technician said as water dripped down his face. “I’m not perfect, but I’m definitely not that person anymore.” Baptisms are routine in the Christian faith, an outward symbol of an inward decision to accept Jesus Christ as a personal savior. Less routine is the baptism of eight church members in this private lake in southeastern Guilford County, where this Sunday a volunteer had an air horn and a shovel to keep snakes at bay. Many churches have built-in baptismal pools. When congregations don’t, it is more likely members will gather around a portable baptismal pool — or the pool at the local YMCA — than a lake. “It’s a holy moment” regardless, said Grace’s teaching pastor, Bill Goans. The rite is so central to the Christian faith because Jesus was immersed in the water by John the Baptist, and his disciples went on to baptize others. Some Christian denominations believe in full immersion, but others sprinkle water over a believer’s head. What they all believe in is the confession of sins. “We have people who have already been baptized indoors but they want the river experience because Jesus was baptized in the river Jordan,” said the Rev. Randy Jessup of First Baptist Church of Mayodan, which holds a joint service with Mayodan Pentecostal Holiness Church every August on the Dan River . The Aug. 24 baptism at Grace is one of four the Greensboro church plans for the year, and at least one is at Lynwood Lake, which is about a 15-minute drive from the church. Those who are baptized have taken a “new believers” class before they are dipped in the water. On a recent humid Sunday at the lake, Goans and Marshall Benbow, the ministry’s community groups and discipleship pastor, were in the water praying with those being baptized. Friends and family were watching from shore. Some sat in beach chairs. Silence settled around them. “We prayed that God would hold the clouds back,” Benbow said before joining Goans in the lake. “So far, so good.” Up first was Leanne Pressley. Each of the eight people going into the water, including Pressley, wrote a personal testimony about themselves that was read over a loudspeaker as they made their way out to Goans and Benbow. Pressley’s ended with, “Today, God will wash me clean.” Government opposes BofA bid By Deon Roberts AP Writer The U.S. government is opposing Bank of America’s request that a federal judge throw out a jury verdict that found it liable for fraud over mortgages sold to mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The government’s opposition comes after the Charlotte, N.C., bank last month requested a judgment in its favor or a new trial in the so-called “Hustle” case. Last year, a jury found the bank liable for Countrywide Financial Corp.’s sale of home loans made under a Countrywide program nicknamed “Hustle.” The Hustle lawsuit is among litigation still hanging over the bank after last’s month’s landmark $16.65 billion settlement with the U.S. government and various states over soured mortgage bonds. That accord was the biggest civil settlement between a single company and the government, and it resolved a variety of probes into the bank. In court filings Thursday, the government said it presented “more than sufficient” evidence at trial to show that Countrywide lied to Fannie and Freddie about the quality of the loans, which later defaulted and led to the mortgage giants incurring millions of dollars in losses. The government claims the Hustle program generated loans in a process that emphasized speed and volume at the expense of quality. Countrywide marketed those loans as investment grade despite their poor quality, the government has argued. THERMAL TECH EXTERIORS Beat the Winter Chill!!

The No campaign won 55.3 percent of the votes cast in Thursday’s referendum against 44.7 percent who backed independence. The margin was wider than expected — most opinion polls on the eve of the vote were predicting a narrower 4-point victory for proponents of the union with England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Investors breathed a sigh of relief that a host of thorny economic issues were not triggered by a Yes vote. The FTSE 100 index of leading British shares ended up 0.3 percent at 6,837.92 but had been higher earlier in the session. As well as worries over what currency an independent Scotland would use, investors had concerns over how the U.K.’s 1.3 trillion pounds ($2.1 trillion) debt would be split. There were even fears that a Yes vote may have triggered a bank run. The uncertainty was so great that Bank of England Governor Mark Carney flew back early from a summit in Australia. “It might not have been financial meltdown territory, but the markets almost certainly would have been in turmoil if the Scots had voted yes,” said Dennis de Jong, managing director at UFX.com. Those companies with Scottish connections outperformed the general market. Among them, Royal Bank of Scotland PLC closed up 2.5 percent, while Lloyds Banking Group PLC rose 1.3 percent. Royal Bank of Scotland, which is majority-owned by the U.K. government since receiving a bailout during the financial crisis in 2008, said it was abandoning a contingency plan that included moving its head office down south to England. “That contingency plan is no longer required,” the bank said in a statement. “Following the result it is business as usual for all our customers across the U.K. and RBS.” In the currency markets, the pound suffered a bit of a reverse Friday as traders raked in profits accumulated over the past week when the currency rallied strongly on growing expectations of a No vote. Having earlier risen to a two-year high of 1.2817 euros, the pound settled around the 1.27 euro mark, down slightly on the day. Against the dollar, the pound was down 0.8 percent at $1.6320, but still over two cents higher than it was ten or so days ago when the Yes campaign looked like it could win. Uncertainty over the pound was likely a key element in the No campaign’s victory. A key concern had been what currency an independent Scotland would use. The Yes campaign had hoped it would still use the pound through a currency union with what’s left of the U.K. but the main British political parties insisted that wasn’t going to happen. Now that the independence issue has been resolved, the focus in markets is swiftly moving on. Late on in the campaign, Scotland, which has its own Parliament responsible for a wide array of policies such as health and education, was promised further devolved powers from London. Cameron’s statement to create a “balanced settlement, fair to people in Scotland and importantly to everyone in England, Wales and Northern Ireland as well” suggests more reforms are likely to be proposed as part of a broadbased constitutional rejig in the U.K. “Precisely what this will entail may be unclear for some time, but it adds an additional coating of uncertainty to that provided by the 2015 general election that could keep the pound firmly on the back foot for the remainder of the year,” said Neil Mellor, senior currency strategist at Bank of New York Mellon. Moody’s Investor Services later maintained its “Aa1” rating and stable outlook on the U.K.’s government-backed bonds. “While the political process going forward will likely lead to further devolution of powers to Scotland and some changes in the fiscal transfers, the rating agency does not anticipate that these will have a material impact on the quality of the U.K.’s institutions, or its financial strength,” Moody’s analyst Sarah Carlson said.

And or aided” the Sept. 11 attacks, or “harbored” those who did. This has been taken as a broad mandate to hit al-Qaida or al-Qaida-allied groups. Its application to ISIS is dubious, though. ISIS didn’t commit 9/11, and it is fighting al-Qaida rather than being allied with it. As backup, the administration says the 2002 authorization for the Iraq War still applies. This, too, is tenuous. The 2002 legislation authorized the president “to defend the national security of the United States against the continuing threat posed by Iraq.” The regime that constituted that threat is long gone, and President Obama declared the war over years ago. It wasn’t long ago that President Obama was a scold about how important it was for Congress to authorize military interventions. It wasn’t long ago that his administration considered the 2001 and 2002 authorizations dated and overly broad, and talked of their repeal. Now, he is happy to sidestep Congress by any legalistic parsing necessary. Just because the president doesn’t want to push for an authorization doesn’t mean Congress has to stand by the sidelines. Yet that is where it is happy to be. The fight against ISIS will be accompanied by fiery denunciations of the group’s barbarism and ringing statements of resolve. It will include everything, it seems, but a congressional vote of authorization. How pathetic. Rich Lowry can be reached via e-mail: comments.lowry(at sign)nationalreview.com TODAY IN HISTORY...

The solicitation, filed Friday with the Securities and Exchange Commission, comes on top of Dollar General’s hostile bid to buy Family Dollar for $80 a share. The discount retailer, based in suburban Charlotte, N.C., has rejected Dollar General three times in the last month, as the Family Dollar board of directors seeks instead to have the company be acquired by Dollar Tree. “We believe our $80 per share all-cash offer is a superior alternative for the Family Dollar stockholders because it provides greater financial value than the proposed Dollar Tree merger,” Dollar General wrote in its message to shareholders. Family Dollar agreed in July to be acquired by Dollar Tree for $74.50 worth of cash and stock. Support combat social pressures and by inviting them (freshmen) to sit with them during lunch.

Family Dollar hasn’t set a date for a special meeting. In a statement, Family Dollar said the company’s board still strongly supports the Dollar Tree deal, “which delivers attractive value in the form of immediate upfront cash and upside participation in a combined Dollar TreeFamily Dollar entity, as well as closing certainty.” Dollar General’s tactic is similar to that of two Brazilian firms that are trying to buy Charlotte-based Chiquita Brands International and Although the overall offer is about $640 million less than Dollar General’s$9.1 billion hostile bid, Family Dollar’s board has said the Dollar General deal is sure to be blocked by federal regulators due to antitrust concerns. The Dollar Tree deal, according to Family Dollar’s board, is more likely to be approved by the Federal Trade Commission. But Dollar General insists the antitrust concerns are a smokescreen, and that regulators would approve a deal with Family Dollar.

Delegation From Page 1A you wanted to look at one single sector of the largest employer of the nation, it would be the aggregate of small business. That is the absolute center of the economy in the United States and in Ohio,” said Padgett. “I hope you are feeling this in Gallia County. It’s very slow. This recovery has been an incredibly slow recovery, but Ohio’s economy is doing better every day.” Padgett gave attendees an overview of the progress made thus far in strengthening Ohio’s economy, citing the now healthier budget and better unemployment rates, as proof it is on the mend. “There was some pretty serious belt tightening. There’s still some complaining going on, but the State is now in its fourth year of a budget surplus and that’s important to everybody. We went from being very heavy in debt to the strongest economy of all the States today. That’s a big turnaround in a short period of time. It does make a difference down in Gallia County,” said Padgett. Padgett also made a case for the importance of tourism to a local economy, calling it a quiet, economic booster for everyone. “My advice to every county, whatever you can do to encourage tourism, is just an unbelievable return on investment.” When asked what the State is doing to attract businesses to the region, Padgett discussed the newly formed Appalachian Partnership for Economic Growth and how it will assist in developing the region. “APEG is brand new, as far as economic development is concerned. Where some of these other areas of the state have had a history of having economic development organizations, APEG is at its beginning. They’re still getting their legs underneath them, so to speak.” Project Manager Matt Cybulski of JobsOhio also discussed the State’s efforts to not only attract new business, but assist existing businesses in expansion efforts. “We focus on both retention and expansion, as well as attraction for projects. It’s a common piece of information Photo by Michelle Miller State Representative Ryan Smith welcomes the attendees. within the economic development world, that about 80 percent of new jobs are created through existing companies,” said Cybulski, who went on to explain many companies are now consolidating and evaluating their footprints, making new projects more difficult to obtain. Cybulski said, one of the key factors to ensure an area is competitive is having its economic development information ready at a moment’s notice. “The speed in which that information can be submitted to companies is very important, because typically, they provide us very little lead time when they’re looking for properties. When that information is packaged in a very concise, complete manner, that helps put those areas on the map,“ said Cybulski. When asked if the State has seen an upward trend in companies moving back to Ohio from overseas, Cybulski said yes. Director Orman Hall of the Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addictions Services also spent time with the group to discuss the prescription opiate and heroin epidemic throughout the region. Hall said the State has made great strides in reducing the amount of prescription opiates used throughout the region, though there is still a lot of work to be done. Hall discussed solutions to continue battling the issue. “Clearly, from my perspective, in terms of this particular epidemic, the over prescribing of prescription opiates is the most important thing we need to deal with in order for our communities to see progress,” said Hall. Hall discussed current guidelines that have been issued to the medical community when prescribing opiates. “At this point they are just guidelines, expectations, but our Governor has said, if we don’t see significant progress in terms of change of prescribing patterns, those guidelines will become rule,” said Hall. He also discussed the role the courts play in assisting through drug courts and also discussed Medicaid expansion. “I realize this is somewhat controversial, but I do want to put a plug in for Medicaid expansion. One of the things we found, is that among those people struggling with addiction disorder specifically, we have a population, because of their inability to maintain jobs, there’s a disproportionate number of people struggling with addiction who we can provide treatment to, with Medicaid expansion,” said Hall. When asked if there have been studies on how much of an effect the crackdown on prescription opiates has had on the rise in heroin use, Hall commented, while there are no specific studies, there is plenty of data that would suggest the two are related to a degree. “If you look at the data, what we’re seeing, from an overdose standpoint and from the standpoint of treatment admissions, we are seeing an increase in heroin admissions and heroin related overdoses. I think there are a number of people hypothesizing it is, to some degree, related to prescription opiates becoming less available. There may be some truth to that, but I don’t think the solution, is not tightening up on prescription opiates. It’s making sure treatment is available,” said Hall. The discussion was turned over to Gallia County Sheriff Joe Browning for his comments regarding heroin in Gallia County. “When you are talking about economics and crimes in your community, the most expensive inmate to house, is someone who is heroin addicted. What we are seeing now, just about every inmate we get in, up to 99 percent, we have to handle them medically to ensure they are being housed properly within the facilities,” said Browning. “It’s a very expensive problem. There’s no easy fix to it. I have to agree with Attorney General DeWine. You’re not going to arrest your way out of the problem. I think it’s got to be a multi-tiered approach. It’s prevalent right now. It’s one of the major factors, if I was someone who owned a business and was looking at locating in Southeastern Ohio, I’d have to think about the workforce I was drawing from to staff that business. It affects it all across the board.” The group also heard from the Ohio Department of Transportation District 10 Deputy Director Steve Williams and the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. Following lunch, the group was given the opportunity to tour the Governor’s Ceremonial Office and meet with Ohio Office of Budget and Management Director Timothy Keen. “Overall, the trip appeared to be a great success,” said Community Improvement Corporation President Tammi Brabham. “The goal was to allow local leaders the opportunity to discuss important issues in Gallia County with State leaders and make a presence in Columbus.” Holzer Health System Chairman of the Board Brent Saunders said, “The trip to the Ohio Statehouse provided an excellent forum for the citizens of Gallia County to inform various leaders of our concerns and needs. It also allowed us to promote the assets we have in Southeast Ohio.” Gallia County Economic Development Director Melissa Clark said, “This trip provided an excellent opportunity for our community to further engage with State officials regarding a variety of topics, including economic development and further growth opportunities. The strong advocacy and support provided by Representative Ryan Smith to our community is immeasurable.” Gallia County Commissioner Harold Montgomery said, “It was great traveling together as a community with one common goal, the betterment of Gallipolis and Gallia County.” Another trip is planned in the future, based on the feedback received from those in attendance.

Breanna West, a 2013 GAHS grad played on the Ohio Christian University volleyball team before transferring to URG. West, a 5-foot-4 sprinter/jumper was a four-year All-Southeast District and Academic All-SEOAL honoree for the Blue Angels. “I’m excited to have the chance to continue my track and field career at Rio because of the team aspect of it,” said West. “Running collegiately is definitely something I’ve pointed toward ever since I started running.” A Psychology major, West mentioned her drive and determination as the two biggest things she’ll bring to the track. “My goal is to contribute every chance I can at each meet and to hit new PR’s (personal records) consistently,” she said. West is the daughter of Scot and Lorie West of Gallipolis. Pictured are, from left to right, (seated) Breanna West, Lorie West; (standing) Rio Grande assistant coach Burt Wood, Rio Grande director of track & field/ cross country Steve Gruenberg and Rio Grande head coach Bob Willey.

The RedStorm evened their overall record at 3-3 with the victory. Submitted photo The Celtics slipped to 1-3 overall and 0-1 in the KIAC with the loss. “I thought it was an accomplished performance on our part. We played well,” said Rio Grande head coach Callum Morris. “There were a couple of scares here and there caused by a lack of concentration but, overall, we deserved the win. It was nice way to start play in the KIAC and, hopefully, we can keep it going.” Rio grabbed a 1-0 lead in the opening half when Hoff- man, a junior from Franklin, Ohio, headed in a corner kick by junior forward Kasey Crow (Chillicothe, OH). Mathes, a sophomore defender from Springboro, Ohio, netted her goal in the second half, taking a feed from sophomore defender Brooke Keipper (Cincinnati, OH) and scoring from the right wing. Senior goalkeeper Allison Keeney (Cincinnati, OH) notched her third shutout of the season. No other statistics were immediately available. By Alex Hawley ahawley@civitasmedia.com POMEROY, Ohio — As any golfer will tell you, there are always a few stokes you left on the course. Those few stokes may have made the difference Thursday evening as the South Gallia golf team defeated Eastern 206-to-210 on the Eagles home course. Co-medalist Cuyler Mills led the Rebels with a 12-over par 46, followed by Curtis Haner with a 49. Chris Brumfield fired a 54 and Tristin Davis marked a 57, rounding out the SGHS total. The Eagles were led by comedalist Ty Bissell with a 46, followed by Jacob Brewer and Kaleb Honaker, each with a 54. Dillon Swatzel rounded out the EHS total with a 56, while Sean Evans posted a 59 that did not effect the Eagle total. Both South Gallia and Eastern will be traveling to Jaycees to compete in the Division III sectional tournament on Wednesday. Point Pleasant football squad tames the Logan Wildcats, 63-8 By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — So much for an emotional letdown. Junior Cody Mitchell set a new school record with seven touchdowns and Point Pleasant scored on all eight of its first half possessions Friday night en route to a 63-8 thumping of visiting Logan in a Week 4 non-conference matchup at Ohio Valley Bank Track and Field in Mason County. The host Big Blacks (4-0) — who last week toppled Wayne 38-14 to become the state’s new leader for consecutive regular season wins — picked up their 18 straight triumph in rather convincing fashion. PPHS amassed 413 yards of total offense before halftime and went on to acquire 444 total yards while limiting the Wildcats (2-2) to just 252 yards overall. Both teams traded scores early on for an 8-all tie midway through the first, but the Big Blacks reeled off 55 unanswered points en route to their sizable 63-8 intermission advantage. Neither team scored in the second half, allowing Point Pleasant to secure their 18th straight double-digit regular season win. Quarterback Aden Yates gave Point an early lead after scoring on a three-yard run with 8:24 left in the opening period. Gage Buskirk added a successful two-point conversion run to give the hosts an 8-0 advantage. Logan answered on its ensuing drive as Cameron Sammons hauled in a 43-yard pass from Ryan Miller with 6:11 remaining in the opening period, making it an 8-6 contest. Zachery Acord hauled in a successful two-point conversion pass from Miller to knot things up at eight. That was as good as the night would get for the Wildcats, and Cody Mitchell took over from there on out. Mitchell added first quarter scoring runs of 13 yards and two yards for a 22-8 cushion with 2:28 Eagles remaining in the first, then Mitchell hauled in a 35-yard bomb from Yates at the 1:15 mark — giving the hosts a 29-8 edge at the end of one quarter of play. Yates increased the Big Blacks’ lead to 36-8 following an 11-yard scamper at the 11:40 mark of the second, then Mitchell followed with rushing scores of 15, 2 and 22 yards to increase the margin to 56-8 with 2:09 remaining before half. Mitchell’s record-breaking score came on the last play of the first half as the junior intercepted a Miller pass and returned it 49 yards, giving Point Pleasant a whopping 63-8 advantage at the break. PPHS accumulated 266 rushing yards on 27 carries in the first half and added another 147 yards through the air, which resulted in 19 first downs and zero turnovers in 33 offensive plays. LHS, conversely, had three rushing yards on 11 tries in the first half and amassed another 208 through the air, which led to seven first downs from scrimmage (77-to-58) and total yards (376-to-349).

Welch marked nine tackles and two sacks in the win. Cobb led the Lancers with 77 yards on 16 carries, while passing for 193 yards on 15-of-36 with an interception. Ivan Santiago caught a team-high four passes for 84 yards. This marks the sixth consecutive game between Federal Hocking and Eastern that the visiting team has won. Federal Hocking also started the 2010 campaign 0-4. Eastern will return to action Friday night when they host 2-2 South Gallia. The Rebels have lost back-to-back games, including a 19-12 loss to Symmes Valley on Friday. Federal Hocking will travel to face 3-1 Wahama next week; the White Falcons have won three straight. Devils passes were caught by Danford. The Blue Devils had won five straight against the Tigers prior to Friday night. This is Marietta’s first win over a Southeastern Ohio Athletic League team since leaving the league following the 2010 season. From Page 2B yards and a score to lead Gallia Academy, while Halley had two receptions for 42 yards, Eric Sheets added 11 yards on one catch, Eric Ward caught one pass for nine yards and Wilson hauled in a seven yard pass. Johnson led the Tigers with 168 yards on 18 carries, followed by Garrett Davis with 56 yards on 10 carries. Henry was 2-of-7 passing for 70 yards, both and four turnovers in 33 plays. Mitchell finished the night with 156 yards of total offense, which included 11 rushes for 120 yards and another 36 receiving yards on two catches. Mitchell surpassed the previous school record of six TDs and a two-point conversion held by Allan Wasonga, which came against Tug Valley in a 41-6 win on September 19, 2008. There was also a second PPHS school record set on Friday night as Tanner Hill booted a 75-yard punt in the second half. Kicker Dylan Lunsford was also a perfect 7-of-7 on PAT kicks. The Big Blacks finished the night with 297 rushing yards on 37 carries and added another 147 yards through the air. The hosts accumulated 20 first downs, finished plus-4 in turnover differential and received two penalties for 25 yards. Yates followed Mitchell with 55 rushing yards on six carries, while Grant Safford added 42 yards on six totes.

Kane Hutchinson led all receivers with 85 yards on six grabs, while Johnny Sheets caught one pass for 36 yards, Isiah Geiger caught one pass for eight yards, Wroten had one catch for four yards and Jordan Howell caught one three-yard pass.

Trice Boatwright led the Wildcat rushing attack with 15 yards on three carries, followed by Devonte Tolliver with 14 yards on six totes. Miller finished the night 11-of-29 passing for 231 yards, throwing one TD and four picks. Brenton Vance led the wideouts with four catches for 104 yards, while Sammons hauled in three passes for 61 yards. Point Pleasant returns to action Friday when it hosts Gallia Academy in the Battle of the Bridge contest at OVB Field.

Manufacturing in Ohio seeing slow and steady growth TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — Ohio’s identity is tied in many ways to what it has made for generations — steel, cars, glass, tires and, yes, even footballs. While manufacturing alone no longer dominates the state’s economy, its fortunes and the fate of its political leaders still rise and fall with the health of the industries that have shaped Ohio. After a decade that saw nearly four out of every 10 manufacturing jobs disappear, employment in manufacturing has grown each year in Ohio since Republican Gov. John Kasich took office in 2011. But there are still far fewer manufacturing jobs in the state than there were before the recession. A look at the facts and politics about Ohio’s manufacturing economy as Kasich seeks re-election this year against Democrat Ed FitzGerald, the Cuyahoga County executive. THE NUMBERS Manufacturing is no longer the top employer in Ohio — health care and social assistance took over the top spot five years ago — but the state still has more factory jobs than all but California and Texas. About 17 percent of Ohio’s economy is gener- Advertise your business in this space, or bigger Call us at: 740.992.2155 or 740.446.2342 ated by manufacturing, compared with about 12 percent of the U.S. economy. Ohio lost a staggering 166,000 manufacturing jobs — a 20 percent drop — during the Great Recession of 2007-2009, according to the state’s Department of Jobs and Family Services. It has regained about 50,000 over the past four years, the first prolonged increase since the mid1990s. The overall gains in manufacturing jobs have been slow but steady during Kasich’s first term. The number of manufacturing jobs rose nearly 7 percent in Kasich’s first three years. Ohio has been among the top 20 states in job growth since 2011 — less than Michigan and Indiana, which have seen double-digit percentage increases, but with gains exceeding neighboring Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Annual wages for those in manufacturing rose by about $5,500 from 2006 to 2012, an 11 percent gain. At the same time, the state had 1,700 fewer manufacturing locations, a 10 percent drop. THE CONTEXT Ohio had just over 1 million manufacturing jobs in 2000 before losing close to 400,000 over the next decade. With the gains made over the last few years, there were about 670,000 Ohioans employed in manufacturing at the middle of this year. The state lost so many manufacturing jobs that it would take 48 years to recover them all at the current growth rate, according to Cleveland economist George Zeller. The nation, as a whole, would need 63 years to recover all the manufacturing jobs lost, he said. “We are still way deep in a big hole, and we haven’t recovered from it,” Zeller said. THE CAMPAIGNS Kasich was endorsed by the Ohio Manufacturers’ Association, saying in late August that tax cuts and a budget surplus have made the state more attractive. He noted that both Ford Motor Co. and Whirlpool Corp. have moved jobs from other countries into Ohio. FitzGerald has criticized Kasich’s decision to put a two-year hold “I was kind of at a loss for a path,” he said. “Unless you’re looking for minimum wage, it’s next to impossible to find something.” The idea of working in a factory, even if he could find one of those jobs, didn’t appeal to him THE PLANS FitzGerald thinks Ohio either. He couldn’t imagine doing repetitive work needs to aggressively day after day. “In all honpromote its companies esty, I was never a real across the world and increase exports.

FDA tweaks food safety rules due next year USDA approves new modified corn and soybean seeds WASHINGTON (AP) — The government will rewrite sweeping new food safety rules after farmers complained that earlier proposals could hurt business, the Food and Drug Administration said Friday. The FDA’s new proposals would allow farmers to meet water quality standards more easily and to harvest crops sooner after using raw manure as fertilizer. The FDA offered the revised rules Friday, and the final rules are due next fall. The FDA has been haggling over how to write them since Congress passed a food safety law in 2010. Regulators say balancing the need for tighter food safety standards after major outbreaks in spinach, eggs, peanuts and cantaloupe against the needs of farmers who are new to such regulations has been a challenge. Michael Taylor, FDA’s deputy commissioner for foods, says the agency is trying to “achieve the goal of food safety in a practical way.” The rules are new terrain for the agency, he says. The rules proposed last year would require farmers to take new precautions against contamination, making sure workers’ hands are washed, irrigation water is clean and that animals stay out of fields, among other things. Food manufacturers would also have to submit food safety plans to the government to show they are keeping their operations clean. Those changes would in many cases require new equipment, paperwork and record-keeping. None of those priorities would change in the revised rule. But after complaints from farmers big and small who said the rules were too burdensome, the new proposal would lower some standards for the amount of bacteria that can be found in irrigation water and reduce the frequency with which it is tested, in some cases. The proposal also reduces the amount of time required between fertilizing crops with raw manure and harvest and allows farmers to hold produce in a packing house without further regulations. The smallest farms would continue to be exempted from many of the rules. The organic industry had expressed concerns about the rules, especially because many organic farmers use raw manure as fertilizer and try to treat irrigation water with fewer chemicals. “This approach has less potential to impose economic hardship on organic farmers, while at the same time supporting the safest food supply in the world,” said Gwendolyn Wyard of the Organic Trade Association. The rules would mark the first time the FDA would have real authority to regulate food on farms. The agency said when it proposed the rules that they could cost large farms $30,000 a year. The food safety law was passed by Congress at the end of 2010, weeks before Republicans assumed control of the House. Since then, many GOP lawmakers have said the rules are too burdensome for farmers. Some Democrats advocating for organic farmers have also been critical, saying small farms can’t afford the new standards. Supporters have said the new laws are needed after several high-profile foodborne illness outbreaks. While many farmers and food manufacturers already follow good food safety practices, the law would aim to ensure that all of them do. Government inspectors have pointed to dirty equipment, unsanitary conditions and animal feces as likely causes for salmonella, E. coli and listeria poisonings that have sickened hundreds in some of the recent outbreaks. There are an estimated 3,000 deaths a year from foodborne illness. The rules governing produce are already somewhat tailored to make the changes easier on farmers. They would apply only to certain fruits and vegetables that pose the greatest risk, like berries, melons, leafy greens and other foods that are usually eaten raw. A farm that produces green beans that will be cooked and canned, for example, would not be regulated. In addition to regulating farms and food manufacturing facilities, the food safety law authorized more inspections by the FDA and gave the agency additional powers to shut down facilities. The law also required stricter standards on imported foods. The new proposal will have a 75 day comment period. The FDA is legally required to finalize the rules by next year after they were sued by an advocacy group last year for missing deadlines. Sunday Times-Sentinel Community News, Sports Scores, Editorials, Church Events and Breaking News YOUR NEWSPAPER Story idea or news tip? Call 992.2155 or 446.2342 WASHINGTON (AP) — The Agriculture Department has approved the use of genetically modified corn and soybean seeds that are resistant to a popular weed killer. However, farmers won’t be able to take full advantage of the seeds until the Environmental Protection Agency issues a second ruling allowing the use of Enlist, a new version of the 2,4-D weed killer that’s been around since the 1940s. The EPA has said it will rule this fall on Dow AgroSciences’ application to market the chemical. The agriculture industry has been anxiously awaiting the approvals, as many weeds have become resistant to glyphosate, an herbicide commonly used on corn and soybeans now. Herbicide-resistant seeds introduced in the 1990s allowed farmers to spray fields after their plants emerged, killing the weeds but leaving crops unharmed. Critics say they are concerned the increased use of 2,4-D could endanger public health and that more study on the chemical is needed. The USDA has said that if both the seeds and herbicide are approved, the use of 2,4-D could increase by an estimated 200 percent to 600 percent by the year 2020. While the Agriculture Department only oversees the safety of the plants, the EPA oversees the safety of the herbicide for human and environmental health. The agency already has found the chemical safe for the public and agricultural workers. The department on Wednesday said it had decided to approve the seeds in an online posting first reported by Politico. Groups lobbying the agency to prevent the herbicide’s expanded use say they are concerned about the toxic effects of the herbicide and the potential for it to drift. Corn and soybeans are the nation’s largest crops, and the potential for expanded use is huge. “With this approval comes millions of more pounds of toxic herbicides dumped onto our land. It’s an unacceptable outcome,” said Andrew Kimbrell, executive director for Center for Food Safety. Dow AgroSciences says the new version has been re-engineered to solve potential problems, like drift before and after the herbicide hits the plant. “We’ve used the latest science and technology to address problem weeds,” said Dow AgroSciences President Tim Hassinger. “Enlist will be a very effective solution, and we’re pleased to have this technology one step closer to the farm gate.” The weed killer 2,4-D is now used on other crops, including wheat, and on pastures and home lawns. It is the world’s most popular herbicide and the third most popular in the United States, behind atrazine and glyphosate. If approved, the new version of 2,4-D would be used in combination with glyphosate. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
