USDA provides $6.4 million for sewer project
Area residents encouraged
to complete income survey
Stephanie Filson
sfilson@civitasmedia.com
CENTENARY — United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) officials traveled to Gallipolis Thursday
to announce the award of more than
$6.4 million in grant and loan funds to
be used toward the construction of a
new sanitary sewer collection system
in portions of Green and Gallipolis
townships in Gallia County.
Gallia County officials, Gallipolis
officials, planning engineers and
community members were all in
attendance at Thursday’s meeting
of the Gallia County Commission
where USDA Rural Development
Agency State Director Tony Logan
announced the news.
“This piece of funding through
USDA Rural Development is the
major piece of that funding, and we
are delighted to be here today to announce this project and provide for
clean and sanitary sewer and water
system here in Gallia County … to
provide an infrastructure platform
for strong growth in the community,”
said Logan. “We’re so glad that it’s
coming to Gallia County.”
The funding package includes a
$3.34 million grant and $3.09 million loan from the USDA for the
construction of the first phase of
the Green Township Sanitary Sewer project. The loan portion of the
package has been secured at 2.125
percent over 40 years.
“The USDA was obviously the
champion in this project that provided
the biggest portion of the funding to
help make it move forward and make
it a reality for next year, I believe,”
said Gary Silcott, of Stantec Engineering which is the firm being used
for preliminary design of the project.
The goal of the project is to preserve the health and safety of the
residents in the Fairfield Acres
Area, Gallia Academy High School,
Centenary Road, Graham School
Road, Ohio 141, Kraus Beck Road,
Debbie Drive and Neighborhood
Road by providing central sanitary
sewer to address the failing on-site
systems and previously reported
findings of the Ohio Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA). Approximately 478 users in these areas will

The works of accomplished artist and father, Robert P. Hutton, created backgrounds for Bossard Memorial Library’s
weekly summer reading programs this summer. Hutton’s daughter, Rachael Barker, has served as Bossard’s Youth Services Coordinator since 2011 and built upon the already established children’s program, utilizing her own creative gifts.
Art from the heart
Father-daughter team bring creativity to library program
Amber Gillenwater

GALLIPOLIS — Patrons of
the Dr. Samuel L. Bossard Memorial Library, who just so happen to share their love for books
with a passion for art, may have
noticed some summer reading
program-themed murals hanging
throughout the library this summer — murals created by an accomplished artist who has a very
special connection to Bossard.
According to Youth Services Coordinator Rachael Hutton-Barker,
when she asked her father, artist
Robert Patrick Hutton, to contribute his art to this year’s summer
reading program, he did not hesitate and even went above what she
asked for, producing more murals
than she had expected.
“He’s a really good sport, and I
thought it would be neat to have
some of his art work in our library,”
she said. “So, he didn’t even think
twice whenever I first asked him
about doing the murals.”
The murals, painted to depict
the various weekly summer reading program themes this summer,
including dinosaurs, pirates and a
construction scene — art not typical of Hutton — can still be viewed
by any patron visiting the library.
“He’s not your typical artist.
He does very unique, kind of
abstract art and just loves bold
color. I just knew he would do a
great job,” Barker stated.
Hutton, who was born and raised
in Pittsburgh, Pa., earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in painting from Carnegie-Mellon University and his Master of Fine Arts
degree in drawing and sculpture
from Penn State University before
serving on the Fine Arts Faculty

POMEROY — Meigs
County Sheriff Keith
Wood issued a warning
on Friday to be aware of
another phone scam.
Sheriff Wood stated
that the Sheriff’s Office
received word that a resident was called by a scammer pretending to be their
granddaughter. The scammer stated that they had
been in a car accident in
California and needed X
amount of money to get
out of jail. When the resident told the scammer
they did not have that
amount of money, the
scammer acted like they were
talking to someone in the jail
and then said, “Okay, they
will take this X amount.”
When the scammer
was questioned about the
sound of their voice that
it didn’t sound like their
granddaughter’s voice, the
scammer said that they
had broken their nose in
the accident and that the
swelling was affecting it.
When the scammer was
then asked by the resident
what her date of birth was,
they promptly hung up.
The resident stated that
they were almost ready to
give in to the money scam
had the last question been
answered correctly.
House fire
claims man’s life

MASON COUNTY, W.Va. — A house fire on the southern end of Mason County claimed a life on Friday morning.
According to Valley Fire Chief Elza Black, his department received a call for a structure fire with possible entrapment at 1102 Whitten Ridge Rd. shortly after 10 a.m.
Friday morning. Black said the wooden-framed structure
was fully engulfed when his department arrived on the
scene. Black also said a male victim was pronounced dead
at the scene, and his body has been taken to the state
medical examiner’s office in Charleston for an autopsy.
Due to the heat, Black called in extra manpower with
the Milton and Winfield fire departments assisting at the
scene. Two of Valley’s firefighters were treated for heatrelated illness, also at the scene.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation with
personnel from the West Virginia Office of State Marshal
called to the scene. Black said as of 4 p.m. Friday, three
investigators with the state fire marshal’s office remained
on the site of the fatal fire.
The name of the victim was not being officially released
as of press time. However, Friday afternoon, several other
media outlets were reporting family members identifying
the victim as Dallas Chapman, 84.

Owners Moe and Anita
Hajivandi converted a portion of the downstairs of
their home near Rutland
into a restaurant serving
specialty pizzas and desserts. Moe is a former
corporate manager for a
Fortune 500 company and
Anita is a licensed chef.
The couple met while attending Ohio University,
Athens, Ohio. The moved
to Meigs County 11 years
ago with their children,
Noah, Hope and Faith.
Sitting down recently
with the Hajivandi’s, they
discussed their motivation
to open the pizzeria.
Anita Hajivandi said
that after spending time
as a full-time mother,
restaurant manager and
caterer over the past several years, she needed,
and wanted, to go back
to work. The restaurant
provided the opportunity
for the husband and wife
team to do just that.
The restaurant serves
locally grown, chemical
free items on the menu,
which will vary seasonally.
“We believe in consuming and serving only
the very best quality
In Memory of
Mary L. Syrus
foods,” said the owners.
“We strive to grow and
purchase
wholesomely
grown, organic, non-GMO
— if at all possible.”
That is evident in just
walking up to the front doors.
As a person walks into
the home, they walk
through the herb garden
where all of the herbs
used in the recipes are
grown by Anita. Italian
tomatoes and strawberries are grown by a local
Amish farmer to be used
at the restaurant.
The pizza is cooked in
an authentic wood-burning brick oven in the kitchen of the owners 1800s
built colonial home.
Moe & Anita’s is located
at 37817 Ohio 124 between
Pomeroy and Rutland.
The restaurant is currently open from 4-8 p.m.
on Friday and 1-8 p.m.
on Sunday, but plans are
being made to open for
lunch on Fridays in the
near future. Saturday
hours are reserved for
private parties and are by
reservation only.
While reservations are
not required, they are recommended as seating is
limited and fills up fast.
Reservations can be made
by calling (740) 992-1825.
Moe & Anita’s can be
found on the web at www.
moeanitas.com or on Facebook where information
about specials and contests can also be found.

be affected by the project.
The project will mark yet another
partnership between the county
and the city. The wastewater from
the proposed collection system will
be conveyed to the City of Gallipolis for treatment.
The project’s funding infusion
from the USDA is key to helping
facilitate additional necessary funding from other agencies like the
Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG), the Ohio Public
Works Commission (OPWC) and
the Appalachian Regional Council
(ARC). The total estimated cost of
the project is $9.079 million.
During the meeting, Gallia
County Commission President
Harold Montgomery explained
that the sewer project was not
optional. Rather, it came on the
heels of an EPA mandate.
“This is an EPA mandate on behalf of the county. We are under
findings and orders to making corrections to this area,” said Montgomery. “That’s been ongoing for
several years, and it’s now coming to
fruition that funding is in place, and
we have a schedule to work toward.”
“This project is going to probably
raise a lot of questions [from the
public],” said Montgomery. “We
are anticipating having another
public meeting in September for
residents of the service area.”
Montgomery said the meeting will
be advertised once the details are
determined. The USDA said they
would provide representatives to
help answer questions at the public
meeting, as well.
Residents will have a chance to
participate in the project immediately, and in a critical way, by completing an income survey that will be
arriving by mail this week.
“The income survey is a big piece of
the puzzle for this project, because if
the area is low income then we can apply for the CDBG money — $500,000
of that goes toward the actual construction of what we own, but then we can
also apply for an additional $100,000
that can be used for on-lot connections
that can be used by those folks who
are low income and can’t afford to con-
nect,” said Gallia County Administrator Karen Sprague. “We’re also going
to try to go after some other funding to
cover the tap fees.”
Sprague said without extra funding, tap fees would cost around
$1,500 with another $1,500 for
connection fees, totaling approximately $3,000 per household to
connect to the system.
Montgomery said the income
survey will be sent to area residents this week and will be due
back to Stantec by July 31. A self
addressed envelope will be provided. Rural Community Assistance
Program (RCAP) will assist in
meeting sample size requirements
in mid-August by going door-todoor to gather information from
the households that did not return
an income survey by mail.
“We want to encourage everyone who receives one of those
to fill it out and return it so that
we might get this determination
whether we are income qualified
or not,” said Montgomery.
If the remaining construction
funds are secured, work could begin
on the project by next summer.

Locally, Hutton may be
best known as the artist
who created a portrait
bronze sculpture of Dr.
Charles Holzer that can
be seen in the Gallipolis
Holzer Clinic.
Barker, who, prior to
becoming Bossard Youth
Services Coordinator in
2011, earned her Bachelor of Arts and Master
of Arts degrees in Elementary Education and
taught
kindergarten,
preschool, third grade,
along with eighth and
sixth grade classes in
Huntington, W.Va., and
Ironton, Ohio, is an
artist in her own right,
organizing
Bossard’s
youth programs.
“He’s just always been a
role model in my life. I’ve
just always looked up to
him, and that’s definitely
where I got my creativity,”
Barker said. “Ever since I
was a little kid, he would
say, ‘Rachael, do not use
coloring books, do not do
the paint by number,’ he’d
say, ‘you need to just have
fun with it and be creative.’
I think he’s been an extraordinary artist who encourages originality.”
Bossard Library Director Debbie Saunders has
also been very impressed
with Rachael’s work during
her tenure at the library,
not only for her background in education and
knack for working with
children, but also for her
creativity — a talent born
through the gifts of a very
creative family.
“I feel very fortunate to
have Rachael on staff. She
has a real heart for children and is perfect for the
position,” Saunders commented. “The youth have
a real comfort level with
her, and we want them to
have that comfort level
when they come into the
library all the time.”
Saunders also commented that not only does Barker share her passion and
understanding for bringing
the library to those children in the county whose
families may not necessarily make the library a
weekly stop during their
family outings, but Barker
also has continued to build
on the traditions of the
past, allowing children’s
programming to grow.
“When Rachael came
to us, she’s continued to
build on the tradition of
the past and brought in
a lot of fresh new ideas,”
Saunders said.
As for Hutton, Barker
stated that her father has
already shown interest in
working with her on some
upcoming library programs
and she is more than willing to utilize his creativity
to enhance her own work.
“It’s just his natural gift,”
she said. “He can do anything: he does sculpture,
acrylic, oil, printmaking,
ink, figure drawing. I’m
more ‘cutesy’ crafty, as
you can tell,” she laughed.
“But, he’s very humble
and a gentle spirit, so you
wouldn’t even know it.
He’s been a good dad.”

Hutton’s work, stop by

Thank You
The families of Darla Hoffman and Colton
Hawk would like to express their thanks to
the numerous individuals in the community
who reached out to help as a result of the
traffic accident that took the lives of this
beloved mother and son on July 6, 2013.
Special thanks goes to the Meigs County Sheriff’s Department, Syracuse Police Department, O. S. P., Dr. Douglas
Hunter, E.M.S personnel, and most especially to Marty Morarity, D & M Pizza employees and other nearby residents
who found themselves as first responders aiding in saving the lives of the other two who were injured, one of which
was Colton’s four-year old son, Landon. Words cannot express the overwhelming appreciation we have for all those
who rushed to help that late Saturday afternoon. In addition, we are thankful to the three compassionate women
at the campground who came to the aide of Dorothy (Dottie) Hoffman, Darla’s mom & Colton’s grandmother, and
to Deputy Brody Davis, Jim Anderson and many others who assisted Tony at the scene. To the E.M.S. squad, and
the medical personnel at Holzer Medical Center and Nationwide Children’s Hospital, we extend our most sincere
gratitude for your diligent responsibility in meeting the needs of our precious Landon.
We are also indebted to the many friends and family who brought food, sent flowers and cards or stopped by to
express sympathy and support during this tragic time. We appreciate the professional and caring staff at Anderson
McDaniel Funeral Home, the kind words offered by Pastors Doug Cox, Justin Roush, and David Hopkins and the
encouragement received from Jeff McElroy in his singing of “Amazing Grace”. We are grateful to Sheriff Keith
Wood and Deputy Brody Davis for leading the funeral procession to the cemetery and to the Pomeroy Police-not
only for controlling traffic, but also for their show of respect as we passed by. We are thankful to the Middleport
Church of Christ for providing a wonderful meal for our families and we would like to tell each and every person
who has offered support in any way that we will be forever grateful for their help and kindness and ask that you
continue to remember us in your prayers.
Sincerely,
Hoffman and Hawk Families

Opinion
Fertilizer industry grows
despite safety concerns
David Mercer &
Ramit Plushnick-Masti
The Associated Press
TUSCOLA, Ill. — In
years past, Brian Moody’s
efforts to bring economic
development to his small
Illinois town focused on
modest projects: merging an old hardware store
whose owner was retiring
with another shop to preserve 30 jobs or pointing
artists to a vacant downtown building.
Now he has a bigger
prospect. Cronus Chemicals wants to build a $1.2
billion plant on a nearby
cornfield that would manufacture nitrogen-based fertilizer, a staple of the corn
and soybean farms that fill
the landscape around Tuscola, a community of 4,500
people about 160 miles
south of Chicago.
Similar projects are being proposed across the
nation, driven by booming
demand for corn and newly
abundant supplies of natural gas, a major component
in fertilizer production.
The plants promise thousands of jobs during construction and hundreds of
full-time spots once they’re
up and running. And most
of them would go in small,
rural towns where economic development isn’t easy.
“It’s equally timeconsuming and frustrating,” Moody said,
explaining that such
promising job-creating
opportunities are rare.
The wave of potential
expansion comes with
concerns. An explosion at
a Texas fertilizer plant in
April killed 15 people in
the community of West,
highlighting the dangers
of such facilities and how
loosely they’re regulated.
But in communities
like Tuscola, local officials say they’re prepared
to handle those risks. A
large chemical plant already stands near the
proposed fertilizer site.
“The fact is that whether these plants are going
to be here or not, we have
three major railroads
that go right through the
middle of this community,” said Steve Hettinger,
chief of the Tuscola Fire
Department. “Those railroads on a daily basis
move all kinds of threats.”
Experts say conditions
are ripe to bring fertilizer production back to
the United States after
an exodus to the Caribbean and elsewhere a decade or more ago, when
high domestic natural
gas prices drove many
manufactures away.
Since then, new methods of finding natural gas
— hydraulic fracturing,
which uses high-pressure
water and chemicals to
break dense layers of rock,
and horizontal drilling —
have set off energy booms
in parts of Pennsylvania,
Texas and other states.
“It shouldn’t be a surprise that there are a lot
of people investing in the
fertilizer business right
now,” said Pat Westhoff,
an agricultural economist
at the University of Missouri-Columbia.
Like Tuscola, most of
the sites being considered are already home to
other chemical facilities,
which were drawn by the
same rail lines and other
industrial infrastructure
that are attractive to the
fertilizer industry.
Over the past two
years, the trade publication Argus FMB North
American Fertilizer has
tracked about 20 proposed fertilizer projects
in the United States and
Canada, said Lauren
Williamson, an Argus
editor. Potential new
plant locations include
Indiana, Iowa, Illinois
and North Dakota. Existing factories in Iowa,
Louisiana and Oklahoma
could be expanded.

Crucial first step in
access-to-capital
process overlooked
Claudia Viek
Surveys show that five years after
the 2008 financial crisis and before
the sequester, small businesses still
have a hard time getting loans. And
the smallest of companies, with the
most potential for growth, have the
most difficulty accessing credit.
A recent survey commissioned by
the American Sustainable Business
Council and the Main Street Alliance
asked owners of smaller companies,
those with two to 99 employees, if
access to sufficient loans and credit
at reasonable rates was a problem.
Almost half (45 percent) said that it
was at least somewhat of a problem.
This survey skewed heavily towards
very small businesses – so called
micro-businesses – with 38 percent
of the businesses having two to four
employees, and 52 percent total having fewer than 10 employees.
If we’re concerned about job creation,
access to credit for small businesses
needs a boost. What can be done?
My 25 years of experience in the
micro lending field have led me to understand that the single most effective
way to increase the access to capital
for small businesses overall is to support business assistance programs.
Consider Jose and Rosie Rodriquez
in California. They wanted to expand
their tire company to include a car
wash and audio store, but they didn’t
qualify for a loan. After two years of
business and credit assistance from El
Pajaro Community Development Corporation, they qualified for a $1.5 million SBA loan from a community bank.
They have 16 employees in King City,
an area with high unemployment.
Across the country, business assistance programs such as Small Business Development Centers (SBDC),
Women’s Business Centers (WBC),
non-profit entrepreneurial training organizations such as El Pajaro and nonprofit lenders create the pipeline of
loan-ready borrowers. This is particularly important for communities struggling to emerge from our prolonged
Recession, in which home equity was
lost and banks closed branches.
Micro-businesses need management tools and skills; they need networks and support systems; and then
they need access to capital.
Without business technical assistance
— think solid business plan, robust cash
flow statements, marketing plan — new
or struggling business owners can’t
qualify for loans– therefore slowing the
job creation process. Business owners
who receive solid, effective entrepreneurial training and assistance have
an 80 percent success rate, compare to
the 80 percent failure rate of small businesses that don’t. Also, businesses that
receive assistance create two jobs in addition to their own over a three-to-five
year period on average.
In 2011, members of my network
organization, CAMEO (California
Association of Micro Enterprise Opportunity), served 21,000 businesses
with training, business assistance
and small dollar loans. These firms,
which were largely startups, supported or created 37,000 jobs for
California and generated $1.5 billion
in economic activity — raising state
revenues, decreasing demand for
government services and contributing to local economies. Similar success is possible in every state.
Despite its positive impacts on the
economy, government on all levels is cutting the funding for business assistance
programs. Across the country, many
organizations were funded with Community Development Block Grants,
but those funds were slashed. In his FY
2014 budget, President Obama zeroed
out the small PRIME program, an SBA
program that funds non-profit entrepreneurial training programs and cut funds
for SBDC’s and WBC’s — all of which
have proven effective. Meanwhile, the
SBA budget shifted $40 million to an
unproven pilot program.
We know what works in improving the access to capital for small
business. Everyone — from business
owners to lenders and policy makers
— must recognize that the first critical step in the capital access process
is business technical assistance.
Congress should restore the
PRIME program and fully fund
SBDC’s and WBC’s at a meaningful
level, so that business support organizations can continue to help small
businesses create jobs.
Claudia Viek is the CEO of CAMEO, California Association for
Micro Enterprise Opportunity, a
network of over 160 organizations,
agencies and individuals dedicated
to furthering the growth of microbusinesses in California.
Congress shall make no law

Kerry presses formula for
resuming Mideast talks
RAMALLAH,
West
Bank (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry
stepped up his drive to
get Israelis and Palestinians back to the negotiating table, meeting with the
Palestinian president Friday as he sought to close
a deep divide between the
two sides over a formula
for resuming peace talks
after nearly five years.
The talks came a day
after the Palestinian leadership balked at dropping
a main condition for talks
with the Israelis. They demand a guarantee that negotiations on borders between a Palestinian state
and Israel would be based
on the cease-fire line that
held from 1949 until the
1967 war, when Israel captured the West Bank, Gaza
Strip and east Jerusalem.
Israel rejects preconditions on the talks, and the
split casts a cloud of uncertainty over months of U.S.
mediation efforts.
Kerry held more than
90 minutes of talks Friday
morning with chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb
Erekat in the Jordanian
capital, Amman. Kerry also
spoke by phone with Israeli
Prime Minister Benjamin
Sunday Times Sentinel • A5
Netanyahu and officials
from both sides, a U.S. official said, speaking on condition of anonymity because
he was not authorized to
brief reporters. Kerry then
went by helicopter to the
West Bank town of Ramallah and entered talks
with Palestinian President
Mahmoud Abbas.
“Mr. President, you
should look happy,” a
cheerful-looking Kerry said
to Abbas in front of reporters as they sat before the
closed-door talks began.
Hoping to push Israelis
and Palestinians toward
talks, President Barack
Obama asked Netanyahu
to work with Kerry “to
resume negotiations with
Palestinians as soon as possible,” according to a statement released by the White
House late Thursday.
Previous Israeli governments twice negotiated on
the basis of the 1967 lines,
but no peace accord was
reached. Besides disagreeing over how much land
to trade and where, the
two sides hit logjams on
other key issues, including dividing Jerusalem
and the fate of Palestinian
refugees. Israel withdrew
from Gaza in 2005.

Flags lowered to
half-staff in W.Va.
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — West Virginia flags are
being displayed at half-staff at all state-owned facilities in
honor of an airman killed in Germany during World War II.
Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin on Friday ordered the flags lowered
from dawn until dusk on Sunday, which is the day of services
for Sgt. Jerome Kiger at Mannington Memorial Park.
Kiger was a tail gunner on a B-24 Liberator bomber
that was shot down July 21, 1944.
He was declared missing in action following the crash
and then declared killed in action in 1945 though his remains and the crash site hadn’t been located.
But the remains of Kiger and another crewman were
found in the plane’s wreckage in Germany in 2008.
Kiger’s identity was confirmed by DNA testing.
Tomblin’s office said Kiger’s remains will be escorted
onto American soil by an honor guard from Fort Meade,
Md., who will provide planeside military honors.
The West Virginia Patriot Guard Riders and others
will stand in honor, along with Kiger’s family, and then
escort him to Mannington for internment.
The German national who located the crash site is set
to attend the service on Sunday.
Ohio jobless rate rises
to 7.2 percent in June
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)
— Officials say Ohio’s unemployment rate rose to 7.2
percent in June with a loss of
12,500 jobs, the second largest of any state that month.
The state’s unemployment rate had remained
at 7 percent for the previous two months.
The U.S. Department of
Labor released the data on
Thursday. Unemployment
rates increased in 28 states
in June, partly because
more Americans began
searching for work and not
all of them got jobs. The
government doesn’t count
people as unemployed unless they are actively looking for work.
The number of unemployed workers in Ohio in
June was almost 413,000, up
by about 8,000 compared to
May. The state’s rate in June
2012 was 7.3 percent.
Ohio’s rate has consistently remained below the
nation’s rate, which was 7.6
percent last month.
Program lets Scouts turn
each other into ‘zombies’
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Pssssst. Hey, Scout.
Tag! You’re a zombie!
Participants at the Boy Scouts of America’s National
Jamboree are turning each other into virtual creepy
crawlies by the thousands this week.
It’s part of an educational game Virginia Tech researchers designed to show how disease spreads.
The Virus Tracker combines technology with the ageold game of tag. At the 10-day Jamboree, Scouts can earn
points by “infecting” other players through a “virus” on
bar-coded labels that are attached to their Scout IDs. Codes
can be activated at scanning stations or by smartphones
that have downloaded the Virus Tracker app. Individuals
and troops that amass the most points each day win.
The goal is to stay human.
Colin Slavin, 15, whose Scout troop is based in Germantown Hills, Ill., called the chance to turn other Scouts
into zombies “really cool.”
Players can sign up when they visit the Virginia Bioinformatics Institute’s tent at The Cloud, a technology area at
the Jamboree where Scouts also learn about robotics, engineering, computer science and mobile communications.
Slavin heard about the virus program from other Scouts
and had to try it for himself Thursday.

888-838-6679
Not available in all states
By the time the auto
industry melted down in
2009, only a few factories
from GM and Chrysler
were left. GM is the only
one with headquarters
in Detroit, though it has
huge research and testing
centers with thousands of
jobs outside the city.
Detroit lost a quartermillion residents between
2000 and 2010. Today, the
population struggles to
stay above 700,000.
The result is a metropolis where whole neighborhoods are practically deserted and basic services
cut off in places. Looming
over the crumbling landscape is a budget deficit
believed to be more than
$380 million and longterm debt that could be as
much as $20 billion.
In recent months, the
city has relied on statebacked
bond
money
to meet payroll for its
10,000 employees.
Orr made the filing in
federal bankruptcy court
under Chapter 9, the
bankruptcy system for cities and counties.
He was unable to persuade a host of creditors, unions and pension
boards to take pennies
on the dollar to help with
the city’s massive financial restructuring. If the
bankruptcy filing is approved, city assets could
be liquidated to satisfy
demands for payment.
Two public employee
pension systems are the
top unsecured creditors,
according to bankruptcy
documents. The city General Retirement System’s
claim is just more than $2
billion. The Police and Fire
Retirement System is owed
more than $1.4 billion. The
documents filed also show
more than 100,000 creditors that include individual retirees, city workers,
banks, other businesses,
property owners and litigants, though amounts
owed aren’t listed.
Orr said Thursday that
he “bent over backward” to
work with creditors, rejecting criticism that he was
too rigid. “Anybody who
takes that position just
hasn’t been listening.”
The bankruptcy could
last through summer or fall
2014, which coincides with
the end of Orr’s 18-month
appointment, he said.
Snyder
determined
earlier this year that Detroit was in a financial
emergency and without a
plan for improvement. He
made it the largest U.S.
city to fall under state
oversight when a state
loan board hired Orr.
Creditors and public
servants “deserve to know
what promises the city
can and will keep,” Snyder
wrote in a letter that was
part of the filing. “The only
way to do those things is
to radically restructure the
city and allow it to reinvent
itself without the burden of
impossible obligations.”
A turnaround specialist,
Orr represented automaker Chrysler LLC during its
successful restructuring.

DETROIT (AP) — At
the height of its industrial
power, Detroit was an irrepressible engine of the
American economy, offering well-paying jobs, a gateway to the middle class for
generations of autoworkers
and affordable vehicles that
put the world on wheels.
But now the oncemighty symbol of the
nation’s
manufacturing
strength had fallen into
financial ruin, becoming
the biggest U.S. city ever
to file for bankruptcy —
the result of a long, slow
decline in population and
auto manufacturing.
Although the filing had
been feared for months,
the path that lay ahead was
still uncertain. Bankruptcy
could mean laying off employees, selling off assets,
raising fees and scaling
back basic services such as
trash collection and snow
plowing, which have already been slashed.
Gov. Rick Snyder said
Friday that the bankruptcy
process would allow for
improvements to the city,
with a greater emphasis
on public safety and other
city services, which he
acknowledged have long
been “unacceptable.”
He said it also should offer — for better or worse
— a more certain path for
creditors, who don’t know
how much or whether they
will be paid. The process, he
said, would clarify that “this
is a debt that can be paid and
will be paid,” he said.
“Now is our opportunity to stop 60 years of
decline,” he said.
Still, Kevin Frederick, an
admissions representative
for a local career training
school, called the step “an
embarrassment.”
“I guess we have to
take a couple of steps
backward to move forward,” Frederick said.
Now city and state leaders must confront the
challenge of rebuilding
Detroit’s broken budget
in as little as a year.
Kevyn Orr, a bankruptcy
expert hired by the state
in March to stop Detroit’s
fiscal free-fall, said Detroit
would continue to pay its
bills and employees.
But,
said
Michael
Sweet, a bankruptcy attorney in Fox-Rothschild’s
San Francisco office, “they
don’t have to pay anyone
they don’t want to. And no
one can sue them.”
The city’s woes have
piled up for generations. In
the 1950s, its population
grew to 1.8 million people,
many of whom were lured
by plentiful, well-paying
auto jobs. Later that decade, Detroit began to decline as developers started
building suburbs that lured
away workers and businesses.
Then beginning in the
late 1960s, auto companies began opening plants
in other cities. Property
values and tax revenue
fell, and police couldn’t
control crime. In later
years, the rise of autos imported from Japan started
to cut the size of the U.S.
auto industry.

Operation Feed comes to an end
GALLIPOLIS — What started out
quite literally with a bang, as the Gallipolis Developmental Center kicked
off the Operate Feed Campaign with
a 5-K run and Pig Out, has ended quietly, but successfully.
This annual campaign, which
is run across the State of Ohio by
many of the state agencies, is designed to help the local communities where each participating agency
is located. All funds raised during
the campaign remain in the local
community and go directly to various local food pantries so that they
may stock their shelves.
While the campaign started off
with the 5-K and Pig Out, the Gallipolis Developmental Center had
other activities on and off campus
to raise funds. The activities included a silent auction, Paparazzi
Jewelry sale, a Pie in the Face contest, a car wash and a few other
events. Local businesses also donated to Operation Feed not only
through monetary donations, but
also through goods and services.
In total, Operation Feed has
raised the equivalent of 8,500 meals
for those in the Gallia County area
that are in need of a little help to
stave off hunger. The Gallipolis Developmental Center came out number one in the state and would like
to thank everyone who participated
in the events or gave support to the
cause, and, in their own words, the
staff at GDC were able to “show the
kindness and caring culture that our
small part of Ohio has for others.”
The campaign generally starts in
March of each year and ends at the
end of May. If you, or your organization would like to get involved
in next year’s events, contact the
Gallipolis Developmental Center
at (740) 446-1642.

Votto OK with Phillips comment about contract
CINCINNATI (AP) — Reds
first baseman Joey Votto said
he understands why second
baseman Brandon Phillips questioned his big contract extension
during a magazine interview that
was released on Friday.
In the upcoming issue of Cincinnati Magazine, Phillips is quoted
as saying he is “still scarred” that
the front office gave Votto a 10year, $225 million extension in
2012, when the first baseman still
had two years left on his contract.
At the time, Phillips was in his
option year trying to get a multiyear extension. He thought his
chances of staying in Cincinnati
were gone because Votto got such
a big deal. Phillips wound up agreeing to a five-year extension worth
$72.5 million a few days later.
The two infielders started for
the National League in the AllStar game on Wednesday. Votto
is under contract through 2023,
Phillips through 2017.
Votto said on Friday before
the start of a series against the
Pittsburgh Pirates that Phillips
had talked to him about the
matter and he had no problems
with the comments.
“Brandon is always totally
honest,” Votto said. “He’s been
my teammate for six or seven
years now, and I love playing
with him. I have a tremendous
amount of respect for him.
“What he said has nothing to
do with me, but what he had to
say makes me like him even more.
He’s honest. Most players stick
to using catch phrases — like I’m
doing now — but he will tell you
how he feels at that moment.”
Phillips said he was surprised
that Votto got such a big deal based
upon what general manager Walt
Jocketty and owner Bob Castellini
had been telling him while negotiating the second baseman’s deal.
“Do I feel like they lied to me?”
Phillips said. “If someone tells
me they don’t have no money
and you find $200 million some-
where, what does that sound
like? You tell me.
“I’m very happy for Joey,
don’t get me wrong. I’m happy
for everything that happened
to Joey. I thought for myself,
I was done. I was mad that I
thought I wasn’t going to be a
Cincinnati Red anymore.”
Castellini and Jocketty honored Phillips, Votto and reliever Aroldis Chapman on the
field Friday for their appearances in the All-Star game.

has setback,
Ludwick is better
New Cavaliers C Bynum introduced in Cleveland
INDEPENDENCE, Ohio (AP)
— Just minutes after signing
with Cleveland, Andrew Bynum
proclaimed the Cavaliers to be a
playoff team.
Whether his ailing knees allow
him to be the starting center remains to be seen.
“Getting my career on track is
my only goal for the season,” Bynum said Friday at his introductory press conference Friday. “The
Cavs have given me every opportunity to succeed, and we’ve put together a plan. I really believe in the
doctors here and the training staff.
“I want to play a full season, and
there is no doubt in my mind I can
do that. I’m going to be ready for
training camp, that’s the plan.”
Bynum signed a two-year, $24
million contract with the Cavaliers, officially ending his starcrossed stay with the Philadelphia
76ers. The 7-footer missed all of
last season with knee problems after being acquired from the Lakers
in a four-team trade.
Though Bynum underwent
bilateral arthroscopic surgery
on both knees in March and has
not been medically cleared to
run, Cleveland general manager
CINCINNATI (AP) — Reds left-handed reliever
Sean Marshall had another setback in his comeback
from a sore pitching shoulder, forcing him to cut back
on his throwing program for a few days.
Manager Dusty Baker said Marshall saw a doctor after
he had a problem while throwing. The set-up specialist
has been on the disabled list since May 24.
“He had a minor setback yesterday,” Baker said,
before the start of a weekend series against the Pittsburgh Pirates. “He went to see a doctor. He’s going to
get back on it soon. He’s doing well.”
The Reds also are missing right-handed setup man Jonathan Broxton, on the DL since June 15 with a sore elbow.
He’s closer to being ready for a return.
Cleanup hitter Ryan Ludwick took batting practice on the
field Thursday for the first time since he tore cartilage in his
right shoulder while sliding into third base on opening day.
Ludwick isn’t expected back until sometime in August.
The Reds anticipate a long rehabilitation stint in the
minors for Ludwick because he’s been unable to swing a
bat for more than three months.
“He looked real good,” Baker said. “So he might be
ready to go out there (on a rehab assignment) pretty
soon. We have to get him enough at-bats.”
Right-handed starter Johnny Cueto went back to the
River Valley Jr. High
Dominican Republic over the All-Star break because of an
Helmet Fitting
illness in the family. Baker said he’s expected back on SatBIDWELL, Ohio — There will be
urday. Cueto is on the disabled list for the third time this football helmet fitting on Monday,
season with soreness in the back of his right shoulder.

Middle School for all seventh and
eighth grade students who plan to
play football this Fall. All students

Chris Grant made him the team’s
top priority in free agency. The
25-year-old also was courted by
the Mavericks and Hawks.
“We’re all aware of what his
injuries have been,” Grant said.
“He’s also well aware of that and
has taken ownership of the process. Andrew is in a different
place right now and he’s excited
to move forward. We’re going to
do everything we possibly can.”
The Cavaliers only guaranteed
Bynum $6 million in the first year
of the deal, but he could earn an
additional $6 million through performance incentives. Cleveland
holds a $12 million team option
for the second season.
Bynum, who hasn’t appeared in
an NBA game since May 21, 2012,
made $16.9 million last year with
Philadelphia. He averaged 18.7
points and 11.7 rebounds for the
Lakers two seasons ago — earning his lone All-Star selection
— while playing under Cavaliers
coach Mike Brown.
“I was an All-Star in this league,
but I feel like I still have a lot of
room to grow,” said Bynum, the
No. 10 overall pick in the 2005
draft. “I had a year off, a year to
watch basketball and learn the
game from the outside in. I saw
what I need to do.
“With the time off, I’ve been
able to get the swelling in my
knees out, so I’m anxious and
ready to start. I’ve already moved
to Cleveland, and come Monday,
I’ll be working here every day.”
The New Jersey native appeared to be in good shape, which
he credited to “non-weight bearing exercises I’ve been doing to
strengthen my legs.” Bynum added that he weighed 305 pounds,
but planned on being at his playing weight of 285 by the start of
the regular season.
If Bynum is healthy, he gives the
Cavaliers a formidable three-man
core with All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving and power forward Anderson Varejao. Cleveland signed
point guard Jarrett Jack and
small forward Earl Clark earlier
in this free agency period, giving
it three additions with significant
playoff experience.
The Cavaliers also drafted UNLV
power forward Anthony Bennett
with the top overall pick, and has
another developing big man in
third-year pro Tristan Thompson.

Browns sign rookies
McFadden, Bryant
CLEVELAND (AP) —
The Browns have signed
rookie cornerback Leon
McFadden and troubled
defensive lineman Armonty Bryant to fouryear contracts.

Vegas league puts NBA on summer map
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Basketball was made for summer.
The playgrounds and school
yard courts come alive when
the temperature warms up, with
kids watching the NBA Finals
and mimicking their favorite
players. High school players hit
the AAU circuit, crisscrossing
the country for premier tournaments and college recruiting is
in full effect.
And for years, the NBA simply
sat out. The championship would
conclude in June, the draft would
take place a week later and then
the league would go dark for the
rest of the summer.
“The problem was in the old
days, they would build up the
draft, then nothing because
they’d concede to baseball,”
Warren LeGarie said. “That
was a mistake.”
LeGarie, an agent who represents some prominent NBA
coaches, has helped turn the
Las Vegas summer league into
an event that keeps the league
in the headlines well into July.
What started as a six-team
gathering that was thrown together on the fly in 2004 has
blossomed into a 22-team summit that includes a tournament,
owners’ meetings and one of
the few chances for agents
and representatives from all
30 teams to meet in one place
to hash out contracts, discuss
trades and lay the groundwork
for future deals.
“We want it so that people
know that there’s great basketball, but there’s also a way to
break down the walls so that
people can reacquaint, develop
new acquaintances or in some
cases repair old acquaintances,” LeGarie said. “There was
a lot of face to face. We created
something like the winter baseball meetings, where people
can come in converse, do business, and then get down to the
business of basketball.”
LeGarie had been lobbying
the league for quite some time
to bring the summer league
to Las Vegas for a centralized event. Several satellite
leagues had been run in the
past, in places like Colorado,
Boston and on the campus of
Loyola Marymount in California. But the fractured nature
of the meetings made it difficult for schedules to be coordinated, and the door opened
for LeGarie in 2004. Boston
hosted the Democratic national convention, leaving a
dearth of hotel rooms for the
teams scheduled to participate in the summer league.
LeGarie got Boston, Washington, Cleveland, Phoenix, Denver
and Orlando for the first Vegas
summer league, and it quickly
grew to a 16-team field. At the
behest of Adam Silver, who will
take over for David Stern as
NBA commissioner in February,
the NBA got directly involved
in 2007, paying LeGarie, Albert
Hall and VSL Properties to put
on the event while helping with
promotion and organization.
“It’s highly successful,” Silver said. “The competition
is terrific. We feel very much
a part of the community in
terms of our participation, our
owners, GMs and coaches feel
very welcome here and it’s created fantastic programming.”
The summer league games
are broadcast on NBA TV and
ESPN has a SportsCenter set
on scene at the Thomas and
Mack Center. The games feature high-profile rookies, but
most of the scouts and executives watching from the stands
are more interested in evaluating the many players who come
to Vegas with no contract for
the coming season. Everyone
is constantly searching for the
next diamond in the rough,
the unknown talent who is
either coming off an injury or
hasn’t been put in the right
situation yet.
A player like Gary Neal.
The Spurs guard went undrafted in 2007 and played in
Spain, Turkey and Italy for
three years before San Antonio invited him to play for its
summer league team in 2010.
He played well enough to earn
a three-year contract and has
established himself as a key
cog for a team that lost to the
Miami Heat in seven games in
the finals this season.
Jeremy Lin started to make a
“That’s making it way more
competitive out here,” Timberwolves first-round pick Shabazz
Muhammad said. “Guys are
trying on defense and making
each other better for the season, which is a good thing. I
think it’s a great idea that they
went from a playoff system.”
Spurs GM R.C. Buford said
the event has value both on the
court and off, but he wasn’t
ready to declare the new format a success just yet.
“It’s obviously become a
great event and there’s a lot of
things that are a positive about
it,” Spurs GM R.C. Buford
said. “I want to listen to our
group to evaluate the tournament format. I don’t know that
we have a conclusion with how
we feel about it.”
Perhaps even more important
than the action on the court
what is happening off it. General managers find each other in
the hallways of the Vegas resort
hotels for deal-making discussions. Agents stump for their
clients to get an invite to training camp. Coaches looking for
jobs are passing out resumes.
“This was never my dream to
be a head of a summer league,”
LeGarie said. “I see it as a big
party that I get to invite a lot
of friends to. And that’s what
it’s become. It’s a happening
where you get to bring your
best basketball friends.”
name for himself with the Dallas
Mavericks summer league team
in 2010, earning him a contract
with the Golden State Warriors.
There are also the mirages
that come in the desert, players
like Anthony Randolph, Jonny
Flynn and Randy Foye who
lit up summer league but had
trouble gaining traction in the
league. And while most of the
rosters are peppered with nonames, journeymen and guys
who will never become stars
in the league, it feeds the hardcore basketball fan that for too
long was left without anything
to sink his teeth into once the
draft concluded.
“They never understood
the kind of appetite there was
from not the normal fan, the
rabid fan,” LeGarie said. “The
guy who lives and breathes
with stats, with information
and stories and background
and all these things that sound
quaint but to these guys it’s
the life blood, their passion.
We realized we were on to
something in our first year
when we didn’t get the box
score up from the first game
for like 15 minutes. We got
hate mail saying, ‘Get that up!
What are you guys doing?’”
Over the years the tournament has expanded to two
gyms on the UNLV campus
and is holding a tournament
that will crown a champion
for the first time.
Briefs
will be instructed by the
GAHS football staff and
players. Campers should

AP Sports Briefs
Blue Jackets open
2013-14 slate by
hosting Calgary
Jason Getz/Atlanta Journal-Constitution/MCT photo
Over 30 SEC coaches of various collegiate sports, including
University of Georgia football coach Mark Richt, second from
left, and University of Alabama football coach Nick Saban,
second from right, stand on stage before the announcement
of the SEC Network at the Hyatt Atlanta Regency, Thursday,
May 2, 2013, in Atlanta, Georgia.
SEC coaches weigh talent
vs. potential for trouble
HOOVER, Ala. (AP) —
The legal problems of current and former SEC players
— from ex-Florida and NFL
tight end Aaron Hernandez
to LSU running back Jeremy
Hill — cast a negative light
on the league that has won
seven consecutive national
championships.
It also highlights the challenges — and responsibilities — facing coaches who
must weigh a player’s talent
vs. the potential for trouble
in or out of the locker room.
The biggest spotlight by
far has been on Hernandez,
who’s pleaded not guilty to
murder in the killing of
Boston semi-pro football
player Odin Lloyd.
More pertinent to the upcoming season is Hill’s uncertain status while facing
a misdemeanor simple battery charge from an April 27
scuffle in a bar parking lot.
Coaches at Southeastern
Conference media days
this week insisted they do
their best to keep players
behaving, which benefits
the team, the players and
the men paid millions to
win in a powerhouse conference with high stakes
and brutal competition.
Florida’s Will Muschamp
understands he can’t know
what every player is doing every night away from the football building. “You also can’t
stick your head in the sand
and pretend everything is
OK, either,” Muschamp said.
He said coaches and staff
need to know who players are
hanging out with off the field.
“You’re 100 percent re-
sponsible,” Muschamp said.
“When you sign a studentathlete to come to the University of Florida, I look at
his parents, guardians, whoever is important to him in
his life, tell them it’s my job
to be an extension of what’s
already happened at home.
But you’re 100 percent responsible for the young man.
Everything that happens.”
As Alabama’s Nick Saban
put it: “We can be the moral
compass for our young people
but we cannot always drive
the ship. We cannot always be
there to drive the ship.”
In the heated arms race of
recruiting, coaches also bear
the responsibility for signing
a player who might have had
off-the-field troubles.
Mississippi’s Hugh Freeze
brought in one of the nation’s most surprising and
highly rated talent hauls in
February. Weighing risk vs.
reward is a factor in recruiting decisions, he said, not
just whether a kid is deemed
a four- or five-star talent.
“I do think you have to
be very calculated in the
risk you take because you’re
under such scrutiny and
you’re bringing them into
your team,” Freeze said.
“We try to minimize the
number of at-risk issues
you might have, but you’re
going to have some. I have
a gut feeling. I look at his
support system, who he has
and listen to him talk about
what he wants to be known
for. Then I have to make a
decision on whether I think
we can trust one another
with our core values.”
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Coming off one of their best seasons ever,
the Columbus Blue Jackets have unveiled the schedule for their first season in the Eastern Conference.
They open the 2013-14 season on
Oct. 4 at home against Calgary and
close it April 12 at Florida.
The Blue Jackets will play the
members of their new division a total of 30 times, including 15 dates
at Nationwide Arena. The Pittsburgh Penguins will pay three visits
to Columbus while the New York
Rangers, Philadelphia, Washington,
New Jersey, Carolina and New York
Islanders will each visit twice.
Division rivals include Detroit,
Montreal, Toronto, Boston and Buffalo, Tampa Bay, Ottawa and Florida.
The team does not play from Feb.
7-27 because of the NHL’s 16-day break
for the Olympics in Sochi, Russia.
Reds call up INF Soto to
fill for Pirates series
CINCINNATI (AP) — The Cincinnati Reds called up infielder Neftali
Soto before the start of their weekend series against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday, giving them another
right-handed hitter off the bench.
It’s Soto’s second stint with Cincinnati. He made his major league debut
in May and went 0 for 1 before being sent back to Triple-A Louisville.
He batted .278 for Louisville with 11
homers and 45 RBIs.
Soto fills the spot opened when
left-hander Tony Cingrani was optioned to Louisville on Wednesday.
The Reds want Cingrani to make a
start in the minors so he’s not rusty
when they bring him back to start
in San Francisco on Tuesday. The
game will be part of a doubleheader
that makes up a game rained out in
Cincinnati on July 4
American Justin Gatlin
wins 100 in Monaco
MONACO (AP) — Justin Gatlin
of the United States ran 9.94 seconds to win the 100 meters at the
Herculis meet on Friday.
Gatlin held off a challenge from
fellow
countryman
Dentarius
Locke, who finished 0.02 seconds
back. French champion Jimmy Vicaut took third in 9.99.
Amantle Montsho of Botswana,
along with Kenyans Asbel Kiprop
and Edwin Cheruiyot Soi set worldleading times in the 10th leg of the
Diamond League circuit.
World champion Montsho ran
the women’s fastest 400 this season
in 49.33. Kiprop clocked 3:27.72
to beat Mo Farah of Britain in the
men’s 1,500. And Soi ran 12:51.34
in the men’s 5,000.

Meigs annual 4-H style revue
Where members display their
skills, accept their awards
Charlene Hoeflich
choeflich@civitasmedia.com
POMEROY — The creative talents of Meigs County 4-H members shown year
after year in their respective
projects of sewing, growing
and showing, where the innovating “learn -by -doing”
approach is used to acquire
life skills, were displayed
in judging competitions
held several days last week,
all in preparation for the
Meigs County Fair.
Featured Thursday was
the judging of clothing projects, which included not
only numerous garments
constructed by the 4-H members, but some which had
been purchased where the
emphasis was on the economic benefits of being a
frugal shopper. Following the
daytime judging, a creative
style revue took place Thursday evening at the Mulberry
Community Center.
Besides modeling garments they had made or
purchased, the 4-H Fashion
Board members, in appropriate attire, spotlighted fashion
icons of the past. They also
carried out the theme with
a display of creative posters which told the story of
famous people and the influence they had on dress of the
time period in which they
lived. Included in the group
were Kari Arnold as Farrah
Fawcett, Elizabeth Nease as
Jackie Kennedy, Katie Keller
as Snooki, Laura Pullins as
Olivia Newton John, Katlyn
Barber as Grace Kelly, Abbie
Houser as Madonna, Sarah
Lawrence as Catherine Zeta
Jones, and Mattison Finlaw
as Elizabeth Taylor.
Taking grand and reserve
championships in their respective categories were the
following 4-H members:
Fun with Clothes: Elizabeth Nease, grand champion
and Abigail Bauerbach, reserve champion.
Clothes for High School
and College: Katie Keller,
grand champion.
Sew Fun: Isabella Fisher,
grand champion, and Missouri Brown, reserve.
Sew for others: Kari Arnold, grand champion.
Look Great for Less:
Laura Pullins, grand champion; Abigail Houser, reserve
champion, and Nikita Wood,
honorable mention.
Shoppy Savvy: Josie Donahue, grand champion.
Loungewear, Allison Barber, grand champion.
Clothing for Middle
School, Mattison Finlaw,
grand champion.
Active Sportswear, Abigail
Houser, grand champion;
and Katlyn Barber, reserve
champion.
Creative Costumes: Sarah
Lawrence, grand champion
Sundresses and jumpers: Addie McDaniel, grand
champion.
There was also a display
of quilts made by 4-H members. Winners in that category were Ciera Older, junior grand champion’; Kayla
Hawthorne, senior grand
champion; and Britanny
Durst, senior reserve.
Announced at Thursday night’s fashion revue
the names of four outstanding Meigs County
4-H members were nominees for state awards.
They were as follows:
Sarah Lawrence was
nominated for the Lloy8d
and Doris Roby 4-H Clothing Program Award which
carries a $500 cash award
to be applied to the college
tuition or other career development opportunities.
Lawrence was selected as a
nominee on the basis of an
overall outstanding achievement in 4-H clothing and
evidence of leadership skills
throughout her involvement in the 4-H program.
Allison Barber was nominated for the Ohio 4-H Fashion Revue Award. She was
selected on the basis of her
past clothing construction
projects, a complete achievement record on clothing
projects, being selected as
a State Fair Outstanding of
the Day winner and her ability to achieve the total look,
and overall outstanding
achievement in 4-H work.
Named as nominees for
the Master Clothing Educators of Ohio Award were
Abbie Houser for the senior
division, and Laura Pullins
for the junior division. The
winners in each category
will receive a cash award to
be aipp9lied to college tuition or other career develo9pment o9pportunity. One

Barbie fights for her life
NEW YORK (AP) —
As far as catfights go,
this is a doozy.
Barbie, long the reigning
queen in the doll world,
has suddenly been thrust
into the battle of her life.
But Barbie’s competitors
look nothing like the blueeyed, blond-haired, longlegged fashion icon. And
they don’t have the same
old standards of beauty as
the aging diva either.
Monster High dolls,
vampy teens that are patterned after the offspring
of monsters like Dracula
and Frankenstein, have
neon pink and green
streaks in their hair. They
wear platform heels and
mini-skirts with skulls on
them. And the dolls that go
by names like Draculaura
and Ick Abbey Bominable
are gaining on Barbie.
In the Maddux household in Portage, Wis., for
instance, Olivia, 10, has
been playing with Barbie
for six or seven years. But
she added Monster High
dolls to the mix a year ago.
“I look at Olivia and
some of her friends and
see they’re growing out
of Barbies,” says Olivia’s
mom, Lisa Maddux, 42, a
freelance writer.
That Barbie is losing
her edge is no surprise.
Since debuting in 1959 as
the world’s first fashion
doll, Barbie has long been
a lightning rod for controversy and competitors.
To be sure, Barbie is still
No. 1 in the doll market,
and the Mattel franchise
has an estimated $1.3 billion in annual sales. But
Barbie’s sales have slipped
for four straight quarters,
even while the overall doll
category is up 6 percent
year-to-date, according to
the researcher NPD Group.
Jasmine Owens
Meanwhile,
Monster
High, which is also made
by Mattel, has become the
No. 2 doll brand in just
three years, with more
than $500 million in annual sales, says BMO Capital
Markets Gerrick Johnson.
In addition to the competition from Monster High,
Barbie has had to contend
with increasing criticism
of her impossibly proportioned body. While the
54-year-old doll has over the
years graduated from pin-up
girl to a range of characters
that include astronauts, engineers and princesses, detractors continue to dismiss
the 11.5-inch doll’s frame as
impossibly top-heavy and
tiny-waisted.
Barbie’s measurements
equate to about a 39-inch
bust, 18-inch waist and
33-inch hips on a lifesize woman. The average
American woman, by comparison, is about a size 14.
Artist Nickolay Lamm
on Monday posted pictures of what the doll
would look like if it had
the average measurements
of a 19-year-old, revealing
a much more meaty physique. The pictures were
featured on Web sites from
CNN to Time and renewed
controversy over the doll’s
effect on girls’ body image.
Monster High dolls, on
the other hand, although
still pretty slim, have a
punk rock look that’s intended to send the message that being different is
OK. And they’re aimed at
slightly older children —
adding to their appeal —
while Barbie’s increasingly
young audience is hurting
sales. After all, no child
wants to play with anything seen as a baby toy.
Barbie marketed to children that are between age 3
and 9, but over the past 15
years or so, the range has
shrunk to around 3 to 6,
says Timetoplaymage.com
toy analyst Jim Silver. This
has happened because older children are likely gravitating toward electronic devices or dolls like Monster
High, which are aimed at
kids 6 to 13, Silver says.
It’s a trickle-down effect: The same reason why
5-year-olds who belted out
“The Wheels on the Bus,”
25 years ago would today
be more interested One
Direction boy band pop
songs, he says.
“Kids are growing up
much faster younger,” Silver says. “A 6-year-old is
looking for something a
little edgier. That’s the reason why Monster High has
had so much success.”
Kim Blake’s daughter
Sarah, 7, used to be a Barbie fan, but she’s moved
beyond that. She’s getting
ready to donate her 3-foot
tall Barbie dream house
and about half of her 20
Barbie dolls to charity.
Now, she’s more into
playing outside or taking
Taekwondo martial arts
classes and less into dolls
in general. That’s a switch
from her mother, 35, who
played with Barbie dolls
until she was 13.
“Her girlfriends don’t
play with them any more
either,” says Blake, a
store manager in Renton,
Wash. “They’ve actually
said the word ‘babyish’
talking about them.”
The last time Barbie
wasn’t feeling the love
was about 12 years ago
when, after years of little
competition, pouty-lipped
Bratz dolls became wildly
successful. They sent
squeaky clean Barbie into
a sales spiral.
Internet shows its muscle
by making Emmy history
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Emmy
Awards are television’s biggest celebration
of itself, but this year’s ceremony will face
an intruder: “House of Cards,” the first
online series to nab a top nomination with
its best drama series.
Netflix’s triumph on Thursday, which includes nods for its revival of “Arrested Development,” is putting a further squeeze
on the broadcast networks that already
have lost substantial Emmy ground to
cable. New network offerings were almost
completely shut out and, like last year, no
network drama made the nominations cut.
Kevin Spacey, the nominated star of
the political drama “House of Cards,”
reveled in its impressive nine bids and
role as a groundbreaker.
It’s “really, in many ways, kind of
a new paradigm,” he said. “It’s just a
great, great thing for all of us.”
The major networks, ABC, CBS, NBC
and Fox, likely have a different viewpoint.
Cable channels over the year have sharply
eroded their share of the audience, and
now the Internet is nibbling away and will
only become more robust as viewers turn
increasingly to computers and other devices to consume video.
A 6-year-old TV academy rules change
allows online entries to compete with
cable and broadcast programs, but until
Thursday online shows popped up only in
lower-profile categories.
“It’s really groundbreaking,” said
Ted Sarandos, chief content officer for
Netflix. “It’s beyond our most bold expectations. We were thinking a single
nomination would be a win… It’s as
much a win for Internet television as
it is for the content creators.”
Networks still field the most-watched
series — such as top-rated series “NCIS”
and the 20 million-plus viewers it delivers
weekly to CBS — and enjoy the rich opportunities they represent.
“There’s nothing more profitable than
having a big broadcast television hit that
can be exploited on multiple platforms,”
including syndication and online, said
Garth Ancier, a former executive for both
broadcast networks and cable.
But when the Emmys are presented
this fall on CBS, it will surely be irritating to serve as a promotional vehicle for the competition. The ceremony
rotates among the big four broadcasters who, with the exception of basically flat NBC, saw their number of
Emmy bids decline this year.
Besides the showing by Netflix, the
leading number of nominations went to
a cable miniseries, FX’s “American Horror Story: Asylum.” HBO fielded the next
top nominees: “Game of Thrones” with 16
nods and the Liberace biopic “Behind the
Candelabra” earned 15 nominations.
NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” came in
with 15 as well, but it, outgoing “30 Rock”
(also NBC, 13 bids) and “Modern Family”
(ABC, 12 nominations) had the only impressive tallies for broadcast.
The bonanza of nominations for “Game
of Thrones” is the swords-and-fantasy
show’s most-ever and includes a best
drama series nod and three acting bids,
including one for Peter Dinklage.
Recognition went to a number of other
primarily big-screen actors who have migrated to TV for powerhouse projects,
with Michael Douglas and Matt Damon
for “Under the Candelabra” among them.
Joining “House of Cards” and “Game
of Thrones” in the best drama series
category are “Breaking Bad,” ”Downton
Abbey,” ”Mad Men” and last year’s winner, “Homeland.”
“Mad Men,” which last year missed out
on the best drama trophy that would have
been its record-setting fifth, eclipsing fellow four-time winners “Hill Street Blues,”
”L.A. Law” and “The West Wing,” gets
another shot this year.
“Mad Men” and its creator failed to receive any writing nominations for the first
time in the series’ six-year history.
Besides “American Horror Story: Asylum,” others nominated in the miniseries
or movie category are “Behind the Candelabra,” ”Phil Spector,” ”Political Animals,”
”Top of the Lake” and “The Bible,” which
was a hit for the History channel and is
getting a sequel on NBC.
Hot British actor Benedict Cumberbatch, who gained fame in “Sherlock”
and played the villain in “Star Trek Into
Darkness,” is nominated as best lead
actor in the movie and miniseries category for “Parade’s End.”
In the comedy series category, nominees are “The Big Bang Theory,” ”Girls,”
”Louie,” ”Modern Family,” ”Veep” and
“30 Rock,” recognized for its final season.
Another outgoing comedy, “The Office,”
didn’t receive a best series nod.
Joining Spacey in the contest for
best drama series actor are Hugh
Bonneville, “Downton Abbey”; Jon
Hamm, “Mad Men”; Jeff Daniels,
“The Newsroom”; and Damian Lewis,
“Homeland,” last year’s winner.
Kevin Bacon, one of the big-screen stars
trying their hand at TV, was not recognized in the category for “The Following.”
“Breaking Bad,” now in its final episodes on AMC, goes out with a best drama Emmy nomination.
“What’s so great about this thing is
it’s going to bring us all back together. A
little family reunion. So we get to come
back together and celebrate the time
we had together and the work that we
did. It’s very exciting,” said “Breaking
Bad” actor and best supporting nominee
Aaron Paul, who co-hosted the award
announcement with Neil Patrick Harris,
a last-minute substitute for “House of
Cards” actress Kate Mara.

CONCEPTIS SUDOKU
by Dave Green
HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday,
July 22, 2013:
This year will be nothing less than
a dynamic year. At times, you’ll slow
down and become more philosophical.
You often consider what would make
your life work even better. You can
tinker around only so much with a difficult situation. Consider letting it go.
Something better is coming your way,
but not until you take care of this. If you
are single, check out anyone you meet
with care, as some people might not be
what they appear. If you are attached,
the two of you will benefit from taking several weekends away together.
Treat your sweetie as your best friend.
AQUARIUS can push your buttons.
The Stars Show the Kind of Day
You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive;
3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
HHH Your pace will change according to the dynamic of your present
circumstance. Though you might head
out the door with the intention of running a lot of errands, your focus will
shift to a creative opportunity instead. It
is clear that your strengths are needed.
Tonight: As you want.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
HHHH Be sure that there are
alternatives to what you are doing.
Someone’s attitude could become
annoying. The real issue is how to handle the situation. Explore different possibilities before automatically reacting;
you will be empowered by the process.
Tonight: In the whirlwind of life.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
HHH How you see a personal
matter could change with more information. You are gaining more clarity
about the past few months. Err on the
side of caution with spending, even if a
risk seems extremely appealing. It just
won’t be worth it. Tonight: Relax. Play
a game or surf the Web.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
HHHH Your ability to understand
others allows you to have greater giveand-take. Understanding evolves only
if you know full well what you want to
happen. Your emotions behind a decision could change. Sit on your feelings,
as difficult as that might be. Tonight:
Share with a loved one.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
HHHH You might walk out the
door feeling insecure, yet return in the
evening as an empowered individual.
You could be weighing the impact of a
Full Moon as you look at relationships
and their possibilities. Recognize how
much you have going for you. Tonight:
Toss away insecurity.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
HHHH You might want to use the
morning to the max, especially when
dealing with others. The afternoon
would be best for doing research or
for working on an independent project.
You are processing a lot, and you
might not be sure where you will land.
Tonight: Make it yours.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
HHHH At first, you might be dragging your heels, but by midafternoon,
you will feel energized and ready for
anything. Solutions seem to emerge,
and you finally might be able to
approach a loved one with whom you
have had a tiff. Tonight: If at first you
don’t succeed, try again.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
HHHH Someone at a distance will
be encouraging you to do something
differently. How you approach a matter
could change dramatically. You might
want to have a long-overdue chat. You
could be surprised to find that you are
not so vested in the outcome. Tonight:
Happy to go home.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHH Use care with your finances.
You might be taken aback by everything that is occurring around you.
Return calls and emails. Remain sensitive to a vulnerable person who is
close to you. You might feel as if you
have too much to do. Tonight: Juggle
your plans.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
HHHH You’ll feel some kind of shift
midday, and you might wonder where
it is coming from. Try not to question
what is happening within your immediate circle so much — you will find out
soon enough. A financial risk might not
pan out for you right now. Say “no.”
Tonight: Your treat.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
HHHH You’ll perk up and take a
different approach. Your originality
could cause some strong responses,
and perhaps even a minor hassle with
a relationship. Know that this, too, will
pass. A boss or someone you feel you
need to answer to could be closed
down. Tonight: As you like it.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
HHH The early hours are significant. You soon will come to a fork in
the road, where you will need to make
a choice. You will know what to do.
The morning is better for interpersonal
matters, whereas the afternoon points
to getting more done. Tonight: Keep it
a secret.

Where’s that royal baby? Is Kate overdue?
LONDON (AP) — By the
time you’re reading this, the
Duchess of Cambridge could be
in labor. Or it could be a matter
of hours. Or days. Or weeks.
As Britain’s Prince William
and his wife, Kate, await the
birth of their first child — and
the future heir to the English
throne — some are convinced
the royal due date has already
passed, even though Buckingham Palace has not given an
exact date. Many in the British media predicted the baby
would be born last week and
the prince himself is now on
official leave.
Dozens of reporters have
already staked out the central
London hospital where Kate
is expected to give birth. The
palace has said only that the
Duchess is due to deliver the
baby in “mid-July.”
But experts say there’s no
reason to think that the baby is
actually overdue; due dates are
at best an educated guess and
come with a margin of error of
two to three weeks.
“The baby will come when
he or she is ready,” said Janet
Fyle, a midwife and professional policy adviser at Britain’s
Royal College of Midwives.
She said the due date is calculated from the first day of the
woman’s last period. Then add
seven days, plus nine months.
“But nature is the primary determinant (of the due date)
and we can’t do anything to
change that,” Fyle said.
An ultrasound done around
weeks 11 to 12 of the pregnancy can also give women a better
idea of when exactly to get the
nursery ready, she said. A head
measurement at that point is
a better indicator of age than
later in pregnancy.
For healthy pregnant women, as the Duchess of Cambridge appears to be, Fyle said
they shouldn’t worry if they
haven’t given birth by their predicted due date. Many things
can delay birth, including the
baby’s head being in the wrong
spot. “It may just take the baby
awhile to get into the right position before he or she is ready
to come out,” she said.
Normal pregnancies last
about 40 weeks, though 3 to
12 percent of women in the
U.K. go beyond that term.
After 41 to 42 weeks, doctors
may consider inducing labor.
Doctors or midwives typically
induce labor with medications
or other methods; it may still
take one to two days for contractions to start.
“There is a risk as the pregnancy goes on that the placenta
may not work as well,” said Dr.
Daghni Rajasingam, a spokeswoman for Britain’s Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists. She said that could
compromise the baby’s growth
and oxygen supply. For women
who don’t want to have an induced labor, even if they are
beyond 40 weeks, Rajasingam
said extra scans to monitor
the baby’s heartbeat and movement would be necessary.
In Britain, about 25 percent
of all births are cesarean sections, versus 30 percent in the
U.S. In 2011, Britain’s health
watchdog decided women
should be able to get a C-section on demand under the free
health care service, though
there is no indication whether
the Duchess of Cambridge has
requested one in the private
wing of the hospital where she
is expected to deliver.
Although the Duchess of
Cambridge was hospitalized
last December for severe
morning sickness, Rajasingam said there’s no reason to
think she might have a more
difficult labor. Pregnant women are also advised to keep as
active as possible even after
their due date passes.
Rajasingam also said women
having their first baby, as in
the case of the Duchess, typically have a longer pregnancy
than with subsequent children, though scientists aren’t
exactly sure why. “It’s like
a racehorse on a track,” she
said. “For a horse that hasn’t
run the race before, it can
take a little bit longer if you’re
not used to it,” she said.
‘Bridezillas’ ending a decade of wedding terror
NEW YORK (AP) — They’re
often drunken and controlling,
weepy and abusive, but you
won’t have all those bridezillas
to kick around come November.
The cranky grande dame of reality wedding TV, “Bridezillas” is
ending its decade-long run, having
morphed from a relatively sane
look at stressed-out, spendy New
York brides into a hit for WE tv
featuring off-the-rails couples from
all walks of life around the country.
As the cameras trail along a
week or so before their big “I
dos,” these brides curse, scream
and threaten, break stuff, whine
for bling and sometimes get
physical, usually with their
spouses-to-be or overworked and
unpaid bridesmaids.
But fear not fans: A spinoff,
“Marriage Boot Camp: Bridezillas,” offers some sustenance as
it follows five ‘zilla couples from
seasons past as their stretchedthin unions teeter on wacky
therapeutic exercises like playing
dead for one another in a coffin.
Before there were any marriages, though, there was that
big day. In more than 180 episodes that included one “gayzilla,” everything goes wrong, nobody listens, vendors deserve
to die and wedding vows are
incomprehensible. The series
finale — No. 184 plus specials
— is scheduled to air Nov. 1.
Laura Halperin came on
board as an executive producer deep into the third season, rising through the ranks
as a story developer once the
sleepy little show focused
more sharply on the negative.
“There really weren’t very
many wedding shows on. Now
it’s kind of like a weddingpalooza out there,” she said.
“I think that we said what we
needed to say, which is sometimes the ladies take things
just a little too seriously.”
Who wouldn’t, what with
all the incompetence swirling
around these brides, and all the
people trying to steal their limelight, and all the — gasp — fat
people in their wedding parties.
Tricia Cha, now mom to two
daughters in Portland, Ore.,
was part of the tamer freshman
class on Season 1.
She bankrolled most of the
wedding herself. The worst it
got for this strong-willed decision maker, on camera at least,
was a bridesmaid’s dress delivered in the wrong size. Cha reveled in her gifts from Tiffany,
met with her high-end photographer, toured her trendy
West Village reception space
she picked without her groom
and eventually slipped into her
$4,000 Richard Tyler gown
with a smile on her face.
Would she sign on as a
bridezilla now?
“I would not,” she laughed. “I
don’t think the word bridezilla
is one most people would like to
have their name attached to.”
But she felt the show fairly
portrayed her union to her hubby
Jeff. “We weren’t the screaming
lunatics that other people were
so I don’t think there was a lot of
moments for us to be portrayed
too differently,” she said.
Enter Melissa Adams Moore
of Season 7.
Her tipsy exit-interview advice
after the wedding went like this:
“This (expletive) is not worth it.
Don’t do this (same expletive).
I love you. We’re married. So
beautiful. Tear. Don’t do it.”
But before those sage words,
she threatened to gouge out
her mother’s eyes and strangle
and eat her cake designer. Not
satiated by their 15 minutes of
reality fame, this bridezilla and
husband Chris re-upped for this
year’s “Marriage Boot Camp,”
acknowledging trust issues
and other relationship troubles.
The first season of the spinoff
finishes up July 26.
“I would have rather eloped in
Vegas,” Adams Moore said from
Daytona Beach, Fla., of their
stint on “Bridezillas.”
“It’s not really worth it. You
take so long to plan for months
and months and months for
this one day and nothing is
ever going to go exactly how
you want it. It was too much
stress and drama and dependence on people.”
Hence the heavy drinking
for oh so many bridezillas.
Kirsten Walker of Season 6
was among the thirsty.
She was a theater actor before
hitting the show and demonstrating Oscar-worthy drama, warring with her band, lamenting
tearily that her dress had been
cut too short (“It’s called math!”)
and sobbing “My tan is running”
on her wedding day.
Leigh Edwards, a professor at
Florida State University in Tallahassee, said “Bridezillas” and
her TV kin put a tangle of cultural anxieties on the line.
