He explained that loans can be made from the “It Starts Here” fund to qualified entrepreneurs of up to $30,000, at competitive rates, and preferably in cooperation with a local bank. The current interest rate is 1 percent. One job should be created or retained for each $10,000 borrowed. Loan proceeds can be used to purchase machinery and equipment, inventory or for working capital, but cannot be used to purchase or renovate real estate, he said. Applicants must have acceptable credit, a solid business plan, which local Economic Development personnel can assist with if needed, and adequate loan security. There are additional reporting requirements for the life of the loan. Those interested in participating in the revolving loan program should contact Brenda Roush at the Meigs County Economic Development Office at 992-3034, or brendar@meigscountyohio. com. Varnadoe said the “It Starts Here” funds are limited, and the expectation is that applications will exceed available funds. He suggested that those interested “get that business plan together quickly.” This program is funded in part by USDA Rural Development.

Discussion over the use of meters by non-customers was brought up by members of council and Police Chief Mark Proffitt. Council President Jackie Welker and Proffitt each noted that there have been issues in the recent weeks with customers not being able to park near the business they wanted to visit. Council authorized Proffitt to purchase stickers to place on the meters in the downtown business area to help enforce the two hour limit on all meters along the street. Decals will also be placed on the meters — especially on Court Street — indicating which meter is for each parking space. Parking meters in the parking lot will not have a two hour limit, which will allow for business owners and employees to “feed the meter” throughout the day. As in the past parking permits will be sold for parking along the river side of the parking lot. These permits are available at Pomeroy Village Hall. According to Proffitt, there will be a zero tolerance policy for all parking tickets issued within the village. In other business, council approved the use of the parking lot and Main Street area for the annual Memorial Day run. Events will be held May 25 and 26. Welker was re-elected as president of council. Lois and Tiffany Jenkins spoke with council about problems with parking near Tiffany Jenkins’ residence on Union Avenue. Proffitt is to check into the situation.

Present at the meeting were council members Welker, Dru Reed, Robert Payne, Vic Young, Phil Ohlinger and Ruth Spaun, Mayor Mary McAngus, clerk Sonya Wolfe, Village Administrator Paul Hellman and Proffitt.

(AP) — Abortion opponents marked the 40th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision Tuesday with workshops, prayers and calls for more limits on the rights established by the Supreme Court in the landmark ruling that still defines one of the nation’s most intractable debates. Many in the anti-abortion movement looked to Kansas, where Republican Gov. Sam Brownback signed a series of tough anti-abortion measures during his first two years in office. Other states with GOP governors and Republicancontrolled legislatures have taken similar steps. Abortion-rights groups observed a quieter anniversary — a possible reflection of the reality that it’s far rarer for lawmakers to expand access to abortion. The National Organization for Women planned a candlelight vigil at the Supreme Court to commemorate the 1973 decision, which created a constitutional right to abortions in some circumstances and prevented states from banning the practice. The ruling “should be honored,” said Rep. Emily Perry, a lawyer and Democrat from the Kansas City suburb of Mission who supports abortion rights. “I wish the amount of energy put into narrowing Roe v.

Smith The Associated Press PAWTUCKET, R.I. (AP) — The sacred heart tattoo inside Paula McLaughlin’s wrist serves as an everyday reminder of her brother and sister-in-law, Michael and Sandy Hoogasian, who were among the 100 people killed by one of the nation’s worst nightclub fires. The flaming heart tattoo surrounded by rays of light is one of dozens people have inked to remember loved ones killed or injured in the Feb. 20, 2003, fire. Some survivors’ tattoos serve as physical reminders alongside scar tissue from burns they received that night, when pyrotechnics for the rock band Great White set fire to flammable soundproofing foam lining the walls and ceiling of The Station nightclub in West Warwick. With the 10th anniversary of the fire approaching, McLaughlin has organized a project to photograph those tattoos and the people who got them. The exhibit — Station Ink — will feature pictures of more than 60 people with tattoos made in memory of the fire or its victims, as well as stories of what the tattoos mean to them. It runs Feb. 15-17 at the Pawtucket Armory. Admission is free, but any donations received will benefit a foundation working to build a memorial at the site of the fire. “I want it to be like walking through a memorial garden. … A garden of pictures,” said McLaughlin, a jewelry designer educated at Rhode Island School of Design. “Each one represents a person.” It’s a project McLaughlin said she had to do. The night they died, the Hoogasians were at Doors of Perception Tattoo for Michael’s birthday. He had turned 31 the week before and was there so shop owner Skott Greene could start a new tattoo with flames on his shoulder and neck. It was there that they met Great White’s lead singer, Jack Russell, who was also there to get a tattoo. Russell invited everyone to his show that night. He told them to bring their friends and added them to the VIP guest list. A few hours later, most of them were dead. “The tattoo was an important part of what happened,” McLaughlin said. “That’s where my brother met his fate. In that place is where everything started.” By the end of 2003, McLaughlin talked about marking the first anniversary of the fire with a photo exhibit of memorial tattoos. But, she says now, she was unable to emotionally handle it. She put the project on the shelf until late 2011, when she decided the time was right. She recruited friend and professional photographer John Pitocco, who volunteered to take the pictures. The project has been helped by dozens of volunteers and sponsors donating their time, materials, space and services to take, print and hang the photos, and do myriad tasks to make the show happen. McLaughlin plans to ultimately collect the photos into a book. Several photo shoots were organized, including one in late December that lasted 11 hours, as people and families affected by the fire had their photos taken and talked about those they lost. They came with tattoos made days after the fire, or just weeks ago. Many spoke of how the fire changed the course of lives. Robin Belgarde was supposed to meet her friend, Bridget Sanetti, 25, that night, but ended up staying home because her young son was too clingy. Sanetti died. Belgarde still cries when talking about her friend and what happened. “It had a huge impact on my life, on how I viewed things,” she said. “I had to believe in God. I had to believe in something after all this. I was very guilty for a long time.” She got her tattoo eight months after the fire. It includes the phrase “Life is beautiful,” a catch phrase she and Sanetti said to each other, as well as the date of the fire and the date of her son’s birthday. It also includes a cherry blossom to represent new beginnings and a fox with a halo to represent Sanetti, whom Belgarde calls “a sly fox.” Erin Cowan, 32, survived the fire, but her friend, Tammy Mattera, didn’t. Cowan got a koi fish tattooed on her left ankle to remember Mattera and to represent perseverance and strength. “It was also a reminder to myself to move forward,” she said. Christine Jones became a tattoo artist because of the fire. She lost more than two dozen friends that night. A jewelry designer at the time, several friends asked her to design memorial tattoos. She did so many that someone suggested she learn how to tattoo. She has since made that her career. A tattoo she inked on herself will be in the exhibit. The design spans the circumference of her lower leg and includes 100 butterflies and the phrase, “Let these words portray the sorrow in my heart for friends lost,” among other elements. Her policy is to do for free any tattoo to memorialize the fire, and any tattoo to cover up scars from the blaze. As she works on the tattoos, she’ll ask about the people they lost. “They think they’re lucky because I’m willing to do it for free. I think I’m lucky because they let me,” she said.

Fracking is a method of stimulating oil and gas from deep underground that’s led to a historic boom in U.S. production while also stoking controversy over its possible impact on the environment and human health. “FrackNation,” an independent documentary produced by Los Angeles-based filmmakers Phelim McAleer and Ann McElhinney, addresses the issue from an unusual perspective. The release of the documentary now is clearly an attempt to play off a current Hollywood film on fracking, “Promised Land,” which stars Matt Damon. But the David vs. Goliath roles are turned upside down, since McAleer’s pro-fracking production received thousands of small donations on the fundraising site Kickstarter, while Damon’s film, which has an anti-fracking angle, had millions of dollars in funding, including some from the United Arab Emirates. McAleer says anti-fracking activists have based their crusade on faulty claims and a disdain for the actual wishes of many people in the rural communities where land is drilled. His main target is Josh Fox, the director of “Gasland,” the 2010 award-winning, anti-drilling documentary that has inspired many critics of fracking. One leading environmentalist welcomed “FrackNation’s” take and said he can’t wait to see it. “It’s great this guy’s done this documentary. I think it’s sort of a second wave to the more hysterical first reaction” to fracking, said Michael Shellenberger, president of the Breakthrough Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Institute, a Berkeley, Calif., nonprofit that argues for new ways to address environmental problems. Like a genial Michael Moore with an Irish accent, McAleer narrates his confrontations with fracking opponents. Though some of McAleer’s questions are simplistic and leading, it’s startling to see how some critics of fracking react. Fox, himself a journalist, dodges McAleer’s questions, hangs up on him and even uses his lawyers to try to have trailers for “FrackNation” removed from YouTube and Vimeo. Fox said in a statement that he’s refused to deal with McAleer “because he has persistently harassed Josh Fox and represented his statements in a false light.” Fox also said McAleer has a long history of baiting environmentalists, denying climate change and spreading misinformation. In eastern Pennsylvania, a landowner involved in a lawsuit against gas drilling companies confronts McAleer on a public highway, threatens to sue him, says she has a license to carry a pistol and calls 911. A police officer arrives and determines that McAleer has done nothing wrong. Shellenberger, who hasn’t seen the film yet, said it’s interesting that McAleer used low-budget counterculture tactics to make a pro-drilling argument. He welcomed the fact that “FrackNation” also presents the views of numerous people in rural areas who say gas drilling is a benefit, not a curse. For example, Montrose, Pa., farmer Ron White and his son say the royalties from drilling have helped keep the family farm in business, and that his water and land haven’t been harmed by a nearby gas well. McAleer also shows a respected cancer researcher some of Fox’s claims that the chemicals used in fracking will cause cancer. “If people say fracking is causing cancer, they don’t know what they’re talking about,” University of California at Berkeley scientist Bruce Ames replies, noting that cabbage and broccoli also contain minute portions of chemicals that could technically be called carcinogens. In strictly visual terms, FrackNation also quietly makes a point by showing that most of the Pennsylvania countryside in drilling areas is still beautiful, and not a wasteland. Though drilling is an industrial process, the iconic wells and fleets of noisy trucks that service the process disappear from a drilling pad after a few weeks or months. But though “FrackNation” discredits some of the most extreme anti-fracking rhetoric, it also sometimes goes too far in dismissing legitimate concerns. For example, in tiny Dimock, Pa., where drinking water wells were tainted with methane, McAleer leaves viewers with the impression that drilling never caused problems for about a dozen families. In fact, state environmental regulators determined that a drilling company contaminated the aquifer underneath homes there with explosive levels of methane and issued huge fines. The state later determined the company had fixed the problems, and most of the families reportedly reached an outof-court settlement. “FrackNation” also doesn’t acknowledge that Texas regulators say there were some problems with leaking gas and air quality in the early days of the boom there, and The Associated Press recently found that federal officials did have evidence that gas drilling may have contaminated some water wells in that region. On such points, “FrackNation” is guilty of some of the same sins of exaggeration that it criticizes Fox for.

Obama pledged in his inaugural speech Monday to respond to what he called the threat of climate change, saying: “Failure to do so would betray our children and future generations.” By singling out climate change, Obama indicated a willingness to take on an issue that he acknowledges was often overlooked during his first term. He also was setting up a likely confrontation with congressional Republicans who have opposed legislative efforts to curb global warming. Environmental groups said the president’s first test on climate change could come early this year as he decides whether to approve the Keystone XL oil pipeline that will carry tar sands oil from Alberta, Canada, to Texas. The State Department is reviewing the pipeline and is expected to make a recommendation to Obama as soon as April. The State Department has federal jurisdiction because the $7 billion pipeline begins in Canada. Obama blocked the pipeline last year, citing uncertainty over the project’s route through environmentally sensitive land in Nebraska. On Tuesday, the state’s Republican governor, Dave Heineman, gave his approval to a revised route for the pipeline, a widely anticipated move that nonetheless added to the political pressure for the Obama administration to approve or reject the new route without delay. Republicans and many business groups say the project would help achieve energy independence for North America and create thousands of jobs. But environmental groups say the pipeline would transport “dirty oil” and produce heat-trapping gases that contribute to global warming. They also worry about a possible spill. “Starting with rejecting the Keystone XL pipeline, the president must make fighting global warming a central priority,” said Margie Alt, executive director of Environment America. Sen. Barbara Boxer, DCalif., chairwoman of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, called Obama’s comments on climate change “exactly right.” Andrew Hoffman, director of the Erb Institute for Global Sustainable Enterprise at the University of Michigan, said Obama’s focus on climate showed political backbone. “He finally had the courage to acknowledge the words ‘climate change,’” Hoffman said, adding that Obama and other administration officials have frequently used words such as green jobs or clean energy to describe energy policy, instead of the more politically charged term. “I find it very interesting that in this second term he’s just coming right out and saying that climate change is exactly what we’re dealing with,” Hoffman said. But on Tuesday, the first full day of Obama’s second term, the White House disputed the notion that the president had waited until his second term to tackle climate issues, pointing to first-term accomplishments such as improved fuel-economy standards for cars and trucks. White House spokesman Jay Carney called climate change “an important issue” and a priority for the president. “But it is not a singular priority. It is one of a host of priorities he believes we can act on,” Carney said. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said the department would study a three-page letter from Heineman and Nebraska’s environmental report as it completes its own review of the pipeline. A decision is not expected before the end of March, Nuland said Tuesday. Obama, in his address, said some people “may still deny the overwhelming judgment of science” that global warming exists and has human causes, “but none can avoid the devastating impact of raging fires and crippling drought and more powerful storms.” The president has pledged to boost renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power, along with more traditional energy sources such as coal, oil and natural gas. “The path toward sustainable energy sources will be long and sometimes difficult. But America cannot resist this transition. We must lead it,” Obama said. He said developing new energy technologies will lead to jobs and new industries. “That is how we will preserve our planet,” he said. Alden Meyer, director of strategy and policy at the Union of Concerned Scientists, said Obama’s “clarion call to action” on climate change “leaves no doubt this will be a priority in his second term.” After Hurricane Sandy and other extreme weather events, there has been more political momentum than ever to address climate change, Meyer said. “With presidential leadership, that shift will continue and deepen over the next four years, and meaningful progress on climate change will become an important part of Barack Obama’s legacy as president,” he said.

Authorities: NM teen planned more shootings ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — The New Mexico teenager accused of gunning down five family members over the weekend ambushed his father as he returned home from an overnight shift at a rescue mission, then reloaded his rifles and planned to go to a Wal-Mart and randomly shoot people, authorities said Tuesday. Instead, 15-year-old Nehemiah Griego texted a picture of his dead mother to his 12-year-old girlfriend, then spent much of Saturday with the girl and her family, authorities said. That evening, he went to the church where Griego’s father had been a pastor, and Griego eventually confessed to killing his parents and three younger siblings. “The motive, as articulated by the suspect, was purely that he was frustrated with his mother,” Bernalillo County Sheriff Dan Houston said. “He did not give any further explanation.” Houston said Griego had planned the shootings for at least a week, but it’s unclear if he ever actually went to a Wal-Mart or why he changed his mind about continuing the attack, which occurred the same day thousands of gun advocates gathered peacefully at state capitals around the country to rally against stricter limits on firearms. The “Guns Across America” events were being held just after President Barack Obama unveiled a sweeping package of federal gun-control proposals. Griego told detectives he also contemplated killing his girlfriend’s parents, Houston said. The sheriff said he didn’t know if Griego’s contact with his girlfriend avoided further bloodshed. But he said she apparently knew what had happened, and officials are investigating whether she should be charged with failing to report the crime. “We know Nehemiah had been contemplating this for some time,” Houston told reporters at a Tuesday news conference. Griego apparently had told others of his plans, but whom and when was still under investigation, Houston said. The teen waived his right to arraignment in adult court Tuesday on charges of murder and child abuse resulting in death and a judge ordered him held without bond. He was arrested Saturday at his family’s home in a rural area southwest of Albuquerque. The sheriff’s office identified the victims as Greg Griego, 51, his wife, Sarah Griego, 40, and three of their children: a 9-year-old boy, Zephania Griego, and daughters Jael Griego, 5, and Angelina Griego, 2. All appeared to have gunshot wounds to the head. According to Houston and charging documents, it all began early Saturday at the family’s home, when Nehemiah Griego — angry and annoyed with his mother — acted on what he described to investigators as homicidal and suicidal thoughts. Houston said the teen shot his mother while she slept at about 1 a.m. with a .22 caliber rifle the parents kept in a closet. He said he killed his siblings after they woke up and became upset, then grabbed a military-style assault rifle his parents owned and waited in the downstairs bathroom to ambush his father as he returned from work at a rescue mission around 5 a.m. Griego told authorities he then reloaded the two guns and put them in the family van. Houston said he didn’t know if Griego actually went to a Wal-Mart, but officers found the two rifles, as well as at least a dozen rounds for the .22 and a handful of rounds for the .223 caliber assault rifle in the van. Griego spent most of Saturday with his girlfriend and her family, Houston said. At about 8 p.m., Griego went to Calvary church and told church members that his family was dead. Church officials called 911 and took Griego to his home. Griego initially told arriving officers he had come home Saturday morning after spending time at a friend’s house to discover his family dead, court documents say. The teen later confessed to shooting his mother because he “had anger issues” and was annoyed with her, the documents say. The teen had no history of mental illness and drugs and alcohol did not appear to play a factor, Houston said. He did note, however, that the teen liked violent video games, including “Modern Warfare” and “Grand Theft Auto.” He did not say whether he believed the games were a factor.

C., the foundation has awarded grants to over 500 humane societies and animal shelters from coast to coast. The foundation was instrumental in helping many animals after the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, and Greg and Nicole have participated in the many NASCAR Day Telethons. Baer said that owners who can show proof of low income, such as a food stamp or Medicaid card, Social Security Disability, or unemployment verification, are eligible for help having their pets sterilized. “Most people want to do what is best for the dogs and cats, and we want to help them to do that.” However, she added, “the Meigs County humane officer, in his rounds and answers to calls, meets owners in great need, and they will be our priority.” County residents who would like to apply for help should call the Meigs County Humane Society Thrift Shop in Middleport at 992-6060. The Meigs County Humane Society, in operation since 1972, has long been active in the county working to improve the lives of animals, owned or feral. In addition to offering spay/neuter assistance, the group’s other activities include a campaign to prevent owners from chaining dogs and using kennels with roofs instead. The organization also offers help through its Animal Rescue Fund established to assist owners whose pets need emergency veterinary care and works closely with the dog warden on hosting spay/ neuter mobile clinics. The Humane Society Thrift Shop, staffed by dedicated volunteers for over 30 years, has long served as a clearinghouse for animal welfare issues in the county. Baer said that donations of clothes and other items are always welcome. She further explained that the organization is seeking new members, citizens willing to be active to aid animals in distress. “Some of our longtime members are retiring, and we are anxious to attract people who will be proactive in animal welfare. There are many activities that people can become involved in, and of course we count on financial donations, as well.” She noted that “the county’s part-time humane officer’s position was created by the partnership of the Meigs County Humane Society and the county commissioners, with each paying half the salary. People concerned about any situation that involves cruelty or neglect should call the humane officer at 992-6064. Any concerns about dogs running at large, however, should be made to the dog warden at 992-3779.” �The Daily Sentinel Sports WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 23, 2013 mdssports@civitasmedia.com Sanborn grabs first-place finish for URG Randy Payton Special to OVP WESTERVILLE, Ohio – Kyle Sanborn took top honors in the men’s 800-meter run to highlight the University of Rio Grande’s showing at Saturday’s Otterbein Invitational hosted by Otterbein University.

Lions roar past Ohio Valley Christian, 70-61 Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — Visiting Teays Valley Christian hit eight trifectas and never trailed after the first quarter Monday night following a 70-61 decision over the Ohio Valley Christian boys basketball team in a non-conference matchup in Gallia County. The host Defenders (5-7) claimed early leads of 3-2 and 5-3, but the Lions countered with three-pointer from Elias Beacom at the 4:33 mark — allowing the guests to secure a lead it would never relinquish. Beacom added two more trifectas in the period, aiding a 9-8 run to end the first stanza with a small 15-13 edge. OVCS pulled to within a point on three occasions in the second canto, the last of which came at 2120 with 4:13 left in the half. The Lions, however, countered with seven straight points over the next 60-plus seconds — capped by a three from Evan Conaway — for a 28-20 lead with 3:06 remaining. TVCS (15-4) claimed its biggest lead of the opening half at the 1:10 mark after Ben Parsons drilled a trifecta, giving the Lions a 35-25 edge. The Defenders, however, closed the final minute with a 4-0 spurt to pull within 35-29 at the intermission. Ohio Valley Christian had six turnovers and was 13-of-29 from the field in the opening 16 minutes, including a 1-of-4 effort from threepoint range. TVCS, conversely, had three turnovers while connecting on 15-of-38 shot attempts, including a 5-of-13 effort from behind the arc. The Lions canned two threepointers and went on an 8-0 run just 45 seconds into the second half, allowing the guests to claim their biggest lead of the contest at 43-29. The Defenders, however, answered with an 18-5 charge over the final seven minutes to cut the deficit down to 48-47 headed into the finale.

Both teams traded baskets to start the fourth, with T.G. Miller hitting a field goal at the 6:30 mark for 50-49 deficit. The hosts, however, never came closer the rest of the way. The Lions retaliated with a dozen consecutive points for a 62-49 edge at the 4:01 mark, and OVCS was never within more than nine points down the stretch. The Defenders finished the evening 24-of-50 from the field for 48 percent, including a 5-of11 effort from three-point range for 45 percent. The hosts committed 20 turnovers — including 14 in the second half — and also went 8-of-14 at the free throw line for 57 percent. T.G. Miller led Ohio Valley Christian with a game-high 36 points, 20 of which came in the opening half. Chance Burleson and Marshall Hood were next with nine points apiece, while Phil Hollingshead and Evan Bowman rounded out the respective scoring with four and three markers. Teays Valley Christian connected on 28-of-66 shot attempts for 42 percent, including an 8-of-22 effort from behind the arc for 36 percent. The guests committed 13 turnovers and sank 6-of-13 charity tosses for 46 percent. Elias Beacom paced the Lions with 26 points, followed by Zack Moore with 21 points and Ben Parsons with 11 markers. Lady Rebels roll past East, 62-30 Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com SCIOTOVILLE, Ohio — A strong start led to a solid finish for the South Gallia girls basketball team Monday night during a 62-30 victory over host Sciotoville East in a non-conference matchup in Scioto County. The Lady Rebels (13-4) stormed out to a commanding 21-6 advantage after eight minutes of play and never looked back. The guests followed with a small 14-11 second quarter run to secure a 35-17 edge at the intermission. SGHS outscored the Lady Tartans (5-10) in the second half by a 27-13 overall margin, including a 17-7 third quarter surge to up the Lady Rebels’ lead to 52-24 headed into the finale. South Gallia closed regulation with a small 10-6 spurt to wrap up the 32-point triumph. The Lady Rebels connected on 26-of-64 field goal attempts for 41 percent, including a 2-of-8 effort from three-point range for 25 percent. The guests committed 23 turnovers and were also 8-of-10 at the free throw line for 80 percent. Meghan Caldwell led SGHS with a game-high 21 points, followed by Jasmyne Johnson with 11 markers. Mikayla Poling and Ellie Bostic each contributed eight points to the winning cause. Sara Bailey and Alicia Hornsby both chipped in five markers apiece, while Rebecca Rutt and Courtney Haner rounded out the scoring with two points each. Mercedes Tackett paced East with nine points, followed by Tiffany Craft with eight points and Jessie Monroe with six markers. �Wednesday, January 23, 2013 SERVICE / BUSINESS DIRECTORY MARCUM CONSTRUCTION Commercial & Residential Interior Exterior We Now Offer Single Axle Dump Truck Service 740-985-4141 • 740-416-1834 Call Us Today!

Toledo St. John’s Jesuit head coach Ed Heintschel collected his 600th career boys basketball victory last Friday night when his Titans defeated Toledo Central Catholic, 68-56, in a battle of state-ranked teams. Heintschel (600-189), in his 34th season at St. John’s, became the 10th Ohio boys coach to reach that milestone. He is the first boys coach in the state to win 600 games exclusively at a big school (Class AAA or Division I) in Ohio. He is one of four active coaches with 600 or more victories, along with all-time leader Richard Kortokrax (844-337), currently at Kalida; Joe Petrocelli (820-299), who is in his 48th season at Kettering Alter; and Norm Persin (632-168), who is currently at Oak Hill (totals through Jan. 15). Heinstchel also is the fourth Ohio boys coach to earn 600 or more wins all at one school. LISATH STEPPING DOWN: Piketon boys coach Jeff Lisath has announced his retirement at the end of the season. The Redstreaks are 12-3 and leading the Scioto Valley Conference. Lisath, who also coached the Chillicothe Unioto boys and Chillicothe girls, has more than 250 wins as a coach and led Piketon to the state final four in 2009. Lisath won a state title during his high school days at Portsmouth and went on to play at Miami University. He has won three league titles, six sectional titles, one district title, one district runner up and one regional title. NOTE THIS: Norwalk won its 35th straight regular season game by holding Toledo Rogers 32 points under its season average in a 70-55 victory; Huron snapped Sandusky Perkins’ 23-game Sandusky Bay Conference winning streak with a 7260 win; Oak Harbor’s 63-30 win over Milan Edison improved the Rockets to 6-2 in the Sandusky Bay Conference — after the Rockets had just six SBC wins in the previous five seasons combined; Defiance hit 11 of 19 3-pointers to take a 54-5 halftime lead over Sherwood Fairview en route to a 76-28 victory, tying a school record with 14 triples; the Hamler Patrick Henry girls had more turnovers (28) than shot attempts (27) in losing for the first time this season, falling to Archbold 54-40 in a battle of state-ranked teams; and Hardin Northern’s boys ended a 35-game Blanchard Valley Conference losing streak with a 66-59 win over Arcadia — their first since a 67-65 win, also over Arcadia, back on Feb. 6, 2009. RECORD EFFORTS: Point guard Emma Hostetler became the girls all-time leading scorer at Shelby, topping the mark of 1,313 once held by former Division II player of the year Angie Sherk, who set it in 1998; and Mansfield St. Peter’s Randa Payne broke her single-game scoring record for the third time in the storied history of the program, hitting seven 3-pointers en route to 48 points against Plymouth. TURNABOUT: Ottoville’s boys blanked state-ranked Liberty-Benton 10-0 in the first quarter of Saturday’s game. But the Eagles limited the Big Green to a single point over the next two periods and ral- lied to chalk up a 32-19 win. PICKING ON THE TORNADOES: Belllevue’s Jalen Santoro hit the game-winning shot with 2 seconds left in the Redmen’s 64-62 double-overtime win vs. Tiffin Columbian. He finished the game with 34 points. A week earlier, Santoro’s younger sister Carly scored 43 points vs. Columbian. Carly, by the way, had 54 points in four quarters over two consecutive games — the first three quarters against Columbian’s Tornadoes and 11 points in the first quarter against Upper Sandusky. LATE ARRIVALS: Wauseon’s Collin Bzovi scored 16 of his 25 points in the fourth quarter helping the Indians rally from a 34-32 deficit and beat Delta, 51-43; Findlay trailed Lima Senior 18-4 in the first quarter of their game Friday, but rallied to win it 51-50 on Michael Clark’s 3-pointer with three seconds left; Leipsic’s Devin Mangas hit a 3-pointer, but it was disallowed because it came just after the buzzer in a 60-57 loss to McComb; Vanlue’s Linden Smith hit a potential game-winning 3 at the end of the first overtime, but a timeout had been called and the basket was waved off, eventually resulting in a 63-62 loss in double overtime to No. 7 Old Fort; Wade Gelhaus scored the last nine Fort Recovery points, including a buzzer-beating 15-footer, to give the Indians a 61-60 overtime win over Versailles; and Ottoville’s girls scored the final 11 points as the top-ranked Big Green rallied to beat Minster 45-43. Bowling Green-bound Abby Siefker hit the game-winner with less than 10 seconds left to move Ottoville to 15-0. FLIER FLYING HIGH: Clyde’s Amanda Cahill, an Indiana University recruit, was fouled with 7.4 seconds left and made both free throws in a 30-29 win over Cincinnati Winton Woods at the Classic at the Country at Berlin Hiland Sunday. Clyde is 61-1 in the regular season since 2010-11, with the lone loss coming against fourtime defending Division II state champion Shaker Heights Hathaway Brown at last season’s Classic in the Country. The win was only the second of unbeaten Clyde’s 17 wins to be closer than 15 points. AP Source: Reds will NFL lifts suspension of Sean Payton host 2015 All-Star game CINCINNATI (AP) — The Reds will host the 2015 All-Star game at Great American Ball Park, the city’s first since 1988, a person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press. Commissioner Bud Selig will discuss the decision on Wednesday in Cincinnati, where he’s also appearing to promote Major League Baseball’s latest urban youth academy, according to the person speaking on condition of anonymity because no announcement had been made. The Cincinnati Enquirer first reported the decision. The Reds have been trying to acquire the All-Star game since they opened Great American Ball Park in 2003. They hosted the game twice at Riverfront Stadium — two weeks after its opening in 1970 and again in 1988. This year’s game will be played at the Mets’ Citi Field in New York. The 2014 All-Star game will be played in Minneapolis. It’ll be the fifth time that Cincinnati — home of baseball’s first professional franchise — will host the All-Star game. It was played at Crosley Field in 1938 and again in 1953. The Reds hosted the game when they opened Riverfront Stadium in 1970, and baseball had one of its most memorable finishes. Pete Rose bowled over Indians catcher Ray Fosse to score the winning run in the 12th inning of a 5-4 NL victory. In 1988, rain washed out the home run derby the day before the All-Star game at Riverfront Stadium. The uneventful game ended in a 2-1 American League victory, with Oakland catcher Terry Steinbach driving in both AL runs on a homer and a sacrifice fly. Steinbach was the MVP and his special bat — with his name erroneously spelled “Steinbech” — was sent to the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown. The Reds have made an extra push to get the All-Star game since Bob Castellini bought controlling interest in the club after the 2005 season. Major League Baseball was impressed by how the Reds handled the annual Civil Rights Game in 2009 and 2010. The Reds also have hosted playoff games in two of the last three seasons. When the Reds hosted the Civil Rights games, Selig mentioned that the city would be a partner in one of its urban youth academies, aimed at getting youngsters more interested in the game. Selig will discuss MLB’s contribution to the venture on Wednesday. Cincinnati will have the seventh of the urban youth academies, the first in the Midwest. NEW YORK (AP) — Sean Payton is back as coach of the New Orleans Saints. Payton’s season-long suspension for his role in the Saints’ bounty program was lifted by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell on Tuesday, nearly two weeks earlier than expected. The decision allows Payton to attend the Senior Bowl in Mobile, Ala., on Saturday, where some of the top college players available for the NFL draft will be competing. Payton, along with assistant head coach Joe Vitt, general manager Mickey Loomis, and four players including Jonathan Vilma, was suspended after an investigation found the club had a performance pool offering cash rewards for key plays, including big hits. The player suspensions eventually were overturned. “I clearly recognize that mistakes were made, which led to league violations,” Payton said in a statement. “Furthermore, I have assured the commissioner a more diligent protocol will be followed.” The suspension was scheduled to end after the Super Bowl on Feb. 3, but was moved up after Payton and Goodell met on Monday. “Coach Payton acknowledged in the meeting his responsibility for the actions of his coaching staff and players and pledged to uphold the highest standards of the NFL and ensure that his staff and players do so as well,” Goodell said in a statement. “‘Sean fully complied with all the requirements imposed on him during his suspension. Miscellaneous “More important, it is clear that Sean understands and accepts his responsibilities as a head coach and the vital role that coaches play in promoting player safety and setting an example for how the game should be played at all levels.” Saints owner Tom Benson welcomed back his coach. “We are all thankful that Sean Payton has been reinstated,” Benson said. “We have a lot of work to do and we are in the middle of it right now.” Payton also needs to fill a key position on his coaching staff following the departure last week of offensive line coach and running game coordinator Aaron Kromer, now the offensive coordinator in Chicago. Loomis and Vitt are in Mobile evaluating players. Loomis said he was caught off guard by the news of Payton’s return. But he said having Payton back sooner than expected will help the Saints. “Every day makes a difference. We’ve certainly missed Sean in terms of the football team and all the things that go with our business and the game. But look, I miss his friendship. We all miss his friendship. We miss him as a person. I’m excited that he’s going to be back here and fired up that he’s back.” Vitt said he talked to Payton Tuesday morning and that he should join the Saints’ contingent in Alabama on Wednesday. “We just found out on the way to practice,” Vitt said. “Mr. B called Mickey and we’re all excited. Sean went and spent the day in New York (Monday). He just got back in Dallas. I talked to him on the phone about 5 o’clock this morning. He’s packing his bags so we’ll expect he’ll be here some time” Wednesday. Vitt agreed with Loomis that the timing of Payton’s return is good for the team. Payton is “going to hit the ground running with both feet. His jaw is going to be set. He’ll have a note pad full of thoughts and ideas and he’s going to have to get himself caught up with the evaluation process of our team and looking at film, which he’ll do. This is perfect, getting him back now, because he’s going to be here for the readings of our players. He’s going to be here for the readings of these college seniors. We start handing out unrestricted free agent tape on Thursday and Friday of this week. “This is where you’re building the foundation of your football team, with the evaluation process of these draft eligible juniors and seniors and the free agents that are out there.” There remains one outstanding issue for the Saints stemming from the bounty probe: What will become of the Saints’ second pick next spring. As part of the bounty punishment, Goodell fined the Saints $500,000 and took away second-round picks in 2012 and 2013. However, Goodell left open the possibility of restoring the 2013 second-rounder and instead docking the team a later-round pick if he is satisfied with the club’s level of cooperation in the bounty matter. �Wednesday, January 23, 2013 The Daily Sentinel • Page 9 www.mydailysentinel.com Wednesday, January 23, 2013 COMICS/ENTERTAINMENT BLONDIE Dean Young/Denis Lebrun BEETLE BAILEY FUNKY WINKERBEAN HAGAR THE HORRIBLE HI & LOIS Mort Walker Today’s Answers Tom Batiuk Chris Browne Brian and Greg Walker THE LOCKHORNS MUTTS William Hoest Patrick McDonnell Jacquelene Bigar’s HOROSCOPE ZITS THE FAMILY CIRCUS Bil Keane DENNIS THE MENACE Hank Ketchum Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman CONCEPTIS SUDOKU by Dave Green HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, Jan. 23, 2013: This year you often might be inclined to risk.

Tonight: Dinner at a favorite haunt. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Move quickly, and get as much done as possible. If you are considering going on a trip, there is no time like the present to start deciding when or where. Get more opinions and feedback regarding a problematic situation; there is a solution to be found. Tonight: Your treat. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Be honest with yourself — you cannot get past your curiosity involving a matter that is hush-hush. By late afternoon, you might not even care, as you toss yourself into a project or hobby. News from a distance puts a smile on your face. Tonight: Just don’t be alone. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Even if a partner is pushing you hard, you seem to be able to handle the pressure. In fact, you use it to energize. You might wonder when enough is enough. Postpone a discussion until later. A loved one might share an intuitive hunch. Tonight: Vanish while you can. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Accepting responsibility is fine, but adding to a personal problem because you don’t want to say no is a separate issue. You have too much energy for your own good. Rather than snap at someone, move through your feelings and deal with your stress. Tonight: Dance stress away. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Keep reaching out to someone at a distance. You’ll want to resolve a problem, which means finding the other person involved. A loved one could be unusually aggressive. Pull back, and let this person have some space. Tonight: Probably a very late night. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH You can’t seem to help yourself when dealing with a partner. This person has been unusually lucky with funds lately. Later on, make calls to someone at a distance whom you care about. Follow your psychic inclination. Tonight: Break past any self-imposed barriers. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Question your alternatives rather than rush into the first option that heads your way. You will be much happier as a result. Your ability to act and understand will increase with more information. Listen to a family member’s suggestions. Tonight: Head home early. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Attempt to get as much done as possible by putting off a meeting until later. This gathering easily could develop into a social happening. Why fight the inevitable? Plan ahead accordingly. Return calls as promptly as you can. Tonight: Let someone else make the choice. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH At times, you can be so rebellious that you cause yourself a problem. Fortunately, this behavior most likely will happen at the beginning of the day. You’ll want to fix this issue, and you will have plenty of time to do just that. Tonight: Make it early, if possible. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Getting going right now could be a major issue. You know full well that this type of fatigue is there to tell you to slow down. News from a distance causes a last-minute snafu. Try to define what is going on with this person before making adjustments. Tonight: Let the fun begin.

(AP) — The only reason why Matt Birk brought his aching knees and battered body to training camp for a 15th NFL season was to get to the Super Bowl. The 36-year-old Birk was bothered by neck, elbow and knee injuries during his previous three years with the Baltimore Ravens, yet he never missed a start. During the offseason, the six-time Pro Bowl center underwent surgery to repair varicose veins in his legs. Still, Birk knew the Ravens had a shot at a championship, and he wanted to be a part of it. “At this stage in my career, losing takes a lot out of you,” Birk said. “I wouldn’t have come back if I didn’t think there was a legitimate chance that I could help the team.” Birk, safety Ed Reed and guard Bobbie Williams head a list of longtime veterans who will be making their first Super Bowl appearance when the Ravens face the San Francisco 49ers on Feb. 3. “It means a lot for all the guys to have an opportunity to be a part of that,” coach John Harbaugh said. “To be able to be involved with that as a leader is a huge thing. It makes you feel really good, and now you try to make the most of it.” Birk endured 11 fruitless years in Minnesota, reaching the playoffs five times without a conference title. Then, after joining the Ravens as a free agent in 2009, he was part of three more playoff runs that ended short of the Super Bowl. Now, Birk is poised to be part of the NFL’s biggest game. “It’s great, obviously,” he said. “That’s the goal. That’s your dream. That’s why you play.” Maybe Birk deserved it, after everything he went through over his first 14 years. But Birk exudes no such feeling of entitlement. “Nobody deserves it more than anybody else. It doesn’t matter how long you play,” he said. “To be doing it with this team and just, I think, the closeness of this team and kind of the journey that we have been through my four years here — every year getting close and getting close — to finally break through, it’s pretty special.” Reed, 34, has earned nine Pro Bowl invitations in 11 years with Baltimore and has long been recognized as one of the finest free safeties in the game. But he never got into the Super Bowl until now, and to make it even sweeter, his first appearance will be in his home state of Louisiana. “It’s been a long time coming, but it takes time,” Reed said. “We’ve built up to this point.” Teammate Jacoby Jones, who grew up in New Orleans, will be making his Super Bowl debut in his sixth season. After the Ravens beat New England 28-13 in the AFC championship game, Reed prepared for a trip to familiar territory with Jones in tow. “I really don’t have any words for it,” Reed said. “I rushed into the locker room to call my mom, because I know that my family has been going through some things, so I’m just thankful to be going home and for the whole of New Orleans to see some hometown guys. Jacoby, we talked about it. We haven’t been there since (Hurricane) Katrina. We’re just grateful.” The Ravens failed to win the AFC title game in 2008 and 2012 under Harbaugh before finally breaking through.

After Giants win title, Niners getting their shot SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — When Jim Harbaugh and Alex Smith drove in the Giants’ victory parade last fall, players on San Francisco’s championship baseball team hoped they might be able to return the favor if the 49ers could win it all a few months later. Now, the Giants might just get that very chance with the NFC champion Niners headed to New Orleans to face the Baltimore Ravens in the Super Bowl on Feb. 3. Titletown USA very well could be moving out West — and soon. “For sure!” Giants general manager Brian Sabean said Sunday night. San Francisco is trying to become the first market to win a World Series and Super Bowl in the same season since the Boston Red Sox accomplished it in 2004 and the New England Patriots followed suit in February 2005. What’s more, even the NBA’s Golden State Warriors are giving Bay Area fans an awful lot to cheer and hopes of a playoff season. The 49ers beat Atlanta and made it this far with a second-year quarterback boasting all of nine career starts to his name — 25-year-old Colin Kaepernick. The Giants captured their second championship in three years behind the play of an AllStar catcher who won the NL batting title and MVP after missing most of 2011 with a season-ending left leg and ankle injury — 25-year-old Buster Posey. The teams have taken a similar path, too. The Giants rallied from a 2-0 deficit in the NL division series to beat Cincinnati, then from a 3-1 hole in the NL championship series against the 2011 World Series champion St. Louis Cardinals before manager Bruce Bochy’s bunch pulled off an improbable World Series sweep of the well-rested Detroit Tigers. On Sunday, the 49ers traveled to hostile Atlanta, erased a 17-0 deficit and held the Falcons scoreless over the second half for a 28-24 victory. “One thing about our team is that all year we continued to find, and even through adversity, we continued to fight,” linebacker Patrick Willis said. With second-year coach Harbaugh leading the way, San Francisco is headed back to the Super Bowl for the first time since after the 1994 season, when it won its fifth championship during a remarkable run through the 1980s and 90s. When the Giants rallied to beat the Reds, they became the first team in major league history to come back from a 2-0 deficit by taking three straight on the road. The 49ers snapped a five-game postseason road losing streak Sunday at Atlanta. In late September, San Francisco’s baseball players autographed a hat for Smith, the quarterback who had been fined $15,000 last season by the NFL for sporting a Giants hat after games — though the fine was later dropped. Bochy wore a 49ers hat in the dugout before a game to show Smith — who later threw out a ceremonial first pitch during the playoffs — that the Giants appreciated him. “We’re having fun with this. It’s our way of supporting him for supporting us,” Bochy said at the time. “We’re all 49er fans here. This is in honor of Alex. I’m glad he didn’t have to pay the fine. That’s good news.” Infielder Ryan Theriot also bought 49ers hats for his teammates, while quirky reliever Sergio Romo dressed in full 49ers garb after one of his games. He sported a red Aldon Smith No. 99 jersey, and also attended a 49ers game and met players in the locker room afterward — even seeking a few autographs and getting a hug and handshake from tight end Vernon Davis.
