The annual Biz Launch Business Plan Competition provides an opportunity for new or existing businesses to start up or expand their ideas. The competition is open to operations and individuals in a ten-county region including Adams, Brown, Gallia, Highland, Jackson, Lawrence, Pike, Ross, Scioto and Vinton. Meagan Barnes of the The Ohio State University South Centers Business Development Network said every year between 20 and 25 business ideas compete for the cash prizes raised by corporate sponsors. “It is important for us to provide a way to obtain start up or expansion money,” Barnes said. “This is one way for us to raise money and give it to entrepreneurs in southern Ohio.” In order to compete, businesses develop an extensive plan including financial projections and exhibits to support their application. Business plans will be screened and select applicants will advance to the presentation round where they will promote their ideas before a panel of judges. Barnes said the competition was started in 2009 and has given many different types of companies a boost. Past awards have included start up funding for the Silver Bridge Coffee Company of Gallia County, expansion funding for a Jackson County pediatrician to begin offering speech therapy services, and financing for a new product line at Yost Engineering in Portsmouth. Barnes said this is a vital contest for potential entrepreneurs because participants actually have an opportunity to get start up cash in return for their efforts. Applicants must be 18 years of age and may be teams or individuals. In order to be eligible for funding, applications must describe a new business, an early stage company, a new product line or the proposed expansion of an existing company. Applications are due by 5 p.m. October 15. The top three business plans will receive cash awards. Barnes said there is always help available for those who are in the process of turning an idea into a plan. “If you need help with the business planning process, we are always available to help,” Barnes said.

POINT PLEASANT — Pleasant Valley Hospital Home Health has been named a 2012 Excellence through Insight award recipient for “Overall Home Health Patient Satisfaction” by HealthStream, Inc. A formal presentation of the award will be made during HealthStream’s annual customer summit on Oct. 17 in Nashville, Tenn., according to Larry Unroe, the hospital’s chief executive officer (CEO). Pleasant Valley Hospital Home Health was awarded this honor for its commitment to excellence in patient care, according to HealthStream Chief Executive Officer Robert A. Frist, Jr. “We are honored to work with hospitals that are committed to providing excellent patient experiences,” Frist said. “That is why we are delighted to recognize Pleasant Valley Hospital Home Health as a program at the top of its class for patient satisfaction. Their dedication to providing the highest standards not only benefits Pleasant Valley Hospital, but the way healthcare is perceived and valued by their community. We applaud Pleasant Valley Hospital Home Health’s high-level commitment to excellence in healthcare and we are pleased to recognize their achievement through our presentation of an Excellence through Insight award.” To qualify for an award, a hospital must have been a patient satisfaction-tracking client of HealthStream in 2012, scored in the 75th percentile or higher, and surveyed a minimum of 100 patients. Pleasant Valley Hospital Home Health was chosen for receiving the highest ratings in the Home Health category for patient satisfaction. “We’re very proud of Pleasant Valley Hospital Home Health’s achievement,” Unroe said. “The staff has worked very hard in continuing to elevate the level of care available. Knowing that patients are pleased with the care they receive is certainly a very important indicator of success.” Unroe went on to say, “On behalf of all of our Home Health staff members, I am honored to accept this award. Receiving national recognition such as this affirms our staff’s compassionate service and hard work. While it’s certainly a compliment to all of our Home Health employees, it also recognizes the hard work of staff throughout the hospital whose help provides care for our patients, such as those who work at Pleasant Valley Hospital’s outpatient therapy and laboratory.” New Sheriff ’s K-9 introduced at fundraiser Sarah Hawley shawley@civitasmedia.com POMEROY — Working together to better our county. Less than two months after the tragic loss of Deputy K-9 Zach, the Meigs County Sheriff’s Office is working toward Sheriff Keith Wood’s goal of operating a K-9 unit. But it is not just the efforts of the Sheriff and his staff that are making this goal a reality, it is the support of individuals, businesses and organizations from around the area. “It is amazing the support of those in the community,” noted Sheriff Keith Wood earlier this week. The Sheriff also noted the support of the community following the passing of Deputy K-9 Zach earlier this summer. Employees from Farmers Bank have organized “Cookies for K-9s” a three event fundraiser for the program. Friday served as a kick-off for the fundraising campaign with an event held in front of the Meigs County Sheriff’s Office. During the fundraiser, Deputy Brandy King introduced new Deputy K-9 Bax for the first time. Deputy King said that she and Bax just finished their second week of training, and that Deputy Bax should be on the road in mid-October. They will also take part in a training at the end of Septemeber in Michigan. Deputy Bax will be certified for patrol in searching for narcotics, as well as apprehension and tracking. Deputy King added that Deputy Bax is currently adjusted to being at home with her and working with her as she is adjusting to working with him. The dog turns 3 on Sept. 15. Many local businesses contributed items to be raffled off at the event, or donated toward the purchase of raffle and sale items. Items for sale include T-shirts, frisbees, limited edition stuffed dogs, and homemade dog treats.

The funds will be used to purchase equipment such as MRI and x-ray systems, emergency generators, and electronic medical records technology. �Sunday, September 15, 2013 &@>6C@JîLî#:55=6A@CEîLî�2==:A@=:D Sunday Times Sentinel Lî� Ohio law prompts hospital to rescind health grant COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — New state restrictions have barred a Cincinnati hospital from accepting federal money to help sign people up for insurance under President Barack Obama’s health care law. Children’s Hospital Medical Center had planned to enroll the uninsured through its inner-city location and two satellite offices. But the hospital recently notified the Obama administration that it couldn’t take the $124,419 grant to be a so-called navigator because changes in Ohio law made it ineligible, said hospital spokesman Terry Loftus. The hospital is among a few navigator grantees that have notified the U.S. Health and Human Services Department that they wouldn’t be taking the money. “Navigators” are a new group of professionals under the federal law who will be available to help to the more than 1.5 million uninsured Ohioans gain coverage. Navigators can advise people on whether they’d be eligible for Medicaid, the federal-state program for the poor and disabled. But they are banned in Ohio from selling, soliciting and negotiating health insurance under the state’s law. They also can’t offer advice about which health benefit plan is better, worse or suitable for a person. They are particularly important to the law’s success in Republican-led states such as Ohio, where state officials are taking a hands-off approach to promoting the law. The grant to Children’s Hospital was a small portion of the $3 million the state is getting from the federal government for navigators. Almost $2 million was awarded to a food bank association and its partners. Ohio and other states have sought additional regulations for navigators, including required background checks, training and certification. A state law that took effect in July bars as navigators any organization that takes payments from insurers who have health plans in the new insurance market, or exchange. The change meant the Cincinnati hospital had to forgo the federal money, Loftus said. %9:@[Dî-2J?6î$2E:@?2=î �@C6DEîE@î=62D6î4@2=îC:89ED NELSONVILLE, Ohio (AP) — Wayne National Forest has agreed to lease rights to federally-owned coal that is under more than 430 acres in eastern Ohio. Forest Supervisor Anne Carey issued a decision on Friday consenting to the U.S. Department of Interior’s leasing of the seven parcels of land in Perry and Morgan counties, east of the town of Corning. Appeals will be accepted for 45 days. Carey said in a release that a review found the forest’s resources and recreation opportunities wouldn’t be significantly impacted as long as the coal was mined by underground methods. Mining activity wouldn’t require a surface presence. A private company sought lease rights from the federal agency’s Bureau of Land Management. After the appeals process, the bureau can decide whether there’s a competitive sale. �@FCî>6?î8:G6?î562E9î D6?E6?46Dî:?î�?5:2î82?8îC2A6 NEW DELHI (AP) — An Indian court Friday sentenced to death four men for the gang rape and murder of a young New Delhi woman, ordering them to the gallows for a brutal attack that riveted India, where it became a symbol of the widespread mistreatment of women and the government’s inability to deal with crime. Issuing his decision, Judge Yogesh Khanna said the attack “shocked the collective conscience” of India. “In these times, when crime against women is on the rise, the courts cannot turn a blind eye toward such gruesome crimes.” After the death sentence, the wail of one of the four men, 20-year-old Vinay Sharma, filled the tiny courtroom. Sharma, an assistant at a gym, then broke down in sobs. As Khanna walked from his bench, defense lawyer A.P. Singh, who has defended all four men at various times, began to shout at him: “This is not the victory of truth. But it is the defeat of justice.” Like all death sentences, Khanna’s order must be confirmed by India’s High Court. The men can appeal their case to the High Court, as well as to the Supreme Court, and ask the president for clemency. The victim’s family, along with numerous politicians and government officials, had long called for the men to be executed. The family was in the courtroom as the sentence was announced. “I am very happy our girl has got justice,” said the victim’s father, who cannot be named under Indian laws guarding his daughter’s identity as a rape victim. The 23-year-old victim and a male friend — by all accounts they were not romantically involved — were coming home last December from an evening showing of the movie “Life of Pi” when the men lured them into boarding a bus they were joy-riding through the city. They quickly beat the friend, held the woman down and took turns raping her. They also penetrated her with a metal rod, causing the massive injuries that led to her death in a Singapore hospital. India’s Supreme Court has ruled that the death penalty should be used only in “the rarest of rare cases,” though what defines those cases remains highly debated. Only two people — both terrorists — have been executed in India since 2004. Under intense pressure, the Congress party-led national government worked hard to project a tough-on-crime image after the attack, reforming a series of laws on sexual violence. Many in the party, which faces dwindling support and national elections next year, had made clear they wanted the men to be executed. Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde, who earlier in the week said death sen- tences were assured in the case, welcomed the sentence. “The victim and her family have got justice,” he told reporters in New Delhi. “The judge has set an example for anti-social elements that they would meet a similar fate if they committed such crimes.” If India’s chaotic judicial system is supposed to be independent of politics, Singh, the defense lawyer, saw a political hand in the judge’s decision. “The judge has given the death sentence under political pressure,” he said. “The punishment has been given at the government’s insistence.” Many have expressed hope that the case, and the intense media coverage, will help change traditional attitudes that relegate women to subservient roles and contribute to a landscape of sexual harassment and fear. Women learn from girlhood to dress conservatively and avoid going out after dark. They teach themselves to ignore the rampant groping and lewd comments — locally known as “eve-teasing” — they encounter in public. Rapes are regularly blamed on the victims. Many rape victims are shunned by their families, fired from jobs and driven from their home villages. As a result, most rape victims are still thought to remain silent. “Too often the pressure is on the girls to stay safe. But parents need to take responsibility for their sons,” said protester Satvinder Kaur, a 40-year-old mother. “The culture will only change when mothers stop their sons from going out late at night, when they make it clear they will not stand behind them if they do something like this.” Kaur said the sentence sent “a very positive message to the ladies in India that the government is standing behind them.” Faced with the outcry, the government in March created fast-track courts for rape cases, doubled prison terms for rape and criminalized voyeurism, stalking and the trafficking of women. The dozens of protesters outside the courthouse on Friday, while lauding the sentence, called for swift justice in tens of thousands of rape cases that remain backlogged in Indian courts. An estimated 100 and 150 people are sentenced to death in India in most years, but the vast majority of those cases are eventually commuted to life in prison. The defendants, like the rape victim, lived on the bottom rungs of India’s booming economy. Nearly all came from families that had moved to New Delhi in recent years from desperately poor rural villages, hoping to find well-paying jobs in the capital. Few had such luck. Despite losing out on the award, the hospital will continue to enroll uninsured children in Medicaid and help patients through its financial counseling office. “We do all we can to assist patient families with their financial and insurance questions and concerns,” Loftus said in an email. “That won’t change.” Messages about the state law also were left with two other Ohio grantees — the Neighborhood Health Association in northwest Ohio, and the Clermont Recovery Center in Batavia. The sponsor of the Ohio law said the provision on taking payments from insurers was meant to diminish potential conflicts of interest. State Rep. Barbara Sears, a Toledo-area Republican, said she wanted to keep hospitals from steering patients toward health plans that they get money from. “There was this concern that you would not be looking at the plan specific to the person’s needs, but the plan that could potentially fit your needs,” she said in an interview. Consumers can get private health insurance, subsidized by the government, through the online exchanges. Open enrollment starts Oct. 1 and coverage takes effect in January. People also can apply for coverage online, through a call center, in person, or on paper without the help of a navigator. Public records access lags in some Ohio offices COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Twenty counties and cities in Ohio have some weaknesses in their public records policies and procedures, a state auditor’s review showed. Of those government offices with failures, many lacked a centralized way to track public records requests and note whether they are completed, Auditor Dave Yost’s office found. “It’s disappointing in this day and age with all the attention on transparency that we don’t do enough to make sure that peo- ple’s records are accessible,” Yost said in a statement Thursday. In Cuyahoga County, home to Cleveland, some departments failed to maintain email once it was sent. And some officials there could not show that they attended mandatory public records training. Training requirements also are not included in the employee manual. The public records policy of Elyria is not displayed in all city offices, according to the auditor’s review. Allen and Crawford counties, along with the cities of Bowling Green and Beavercreek, also failed to track public records requests by date and fulfillment. Yost found no problems in five counties and seven cities, including Canton, Marysville and Urbana. Still, the Republican said the state must do better to make public records accessible. Auditors looked at the records retention policies of the government offices and whether they had proper standards in place to comply with the state’s public records law.

The placid 15,000-acre lake was created in the 1960s after the government built a dam to prevent frequent flooding on the Des Moines River. Now the cool waters behind the dam are attracting interest beyond warmweather recreation. A power company wants to build a hydroelectric plant here — a project that reflects renewed interest in hydropower nationwide, which could bring changes to scores of American dams. Hydroelectric development stagnated in the 1980s and 1990s as environmental groups lobbied against it and a long regulatory process required years of environmental study. But for the first time in decades, power companies are proposing new projects to take advantage of government financial incentives, policies that promote renewable energy over fossil fuels and efforts to streamline the permit process. “We’re seeing a significant change in attitude,” said Linda Church Ciocci, executive director of the National Hydropower Association, a trade group. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, which oversees hydroelectric projects in the U.S., issued 125 preliminary hydropower permits last year, up from 95 in 2011. Preliminary permits allow a company to explore a project for up to three years. The agency issued 25 licenses for hydropower projects last year, the most since 2005. In all, more than 60,000 megawatts of preliminary permits and projects awaiting final approval are pending before the commission in 45 states. “I’ve never seen those kinds of numbers before,” Church Ciocci said. The interest in hydropower is so intense that some utilities are competing to build plants at the same dams, leaving the government to determine which ones get to proceed. Hydroelectricity provides about 7 percent of the nation’s power using about 2,500 dams. But those dams are just a fraction of the 80,000 in the United States. Most were built for flood control, to aid in river navigation or to create recreational areas. So they do not have power plants. Ironton Tribune, Sept. 5: Barely a month after being sentenced to life in prison, the Cleveland man who kidnapped and tortured three women hanged himself in his jail cell. It hardly feels as if justice was served as Ariel Castro served a fraction of his sentence and didn’t experience any of the hell of imprisonment to which he subjected his captives. Because he made a deal to avoid the death penalty, Castro was sentenced on Aug. 1 to serve life in prison plus 1,000 years after pleading guilty to more than 900 separate charges that included kidnapping and rape. Castro’s death has sparked a wide range of emotions across the state and the entire nation, ranging from elation to anger to concern for the state’s prison system. … The state of Ohio should certainly ensure that all protocol was followed and that reasonable efforts were made to protect him from other inmates and himself. However, it is difficult to see how it could have been handled differently. The man was checked on every 30 minutes. Some have gone as far as saying that the prison system failed him. If anything, it failed his victims because the punishment ultimately didn’t come close to fitting the crime. … Online: http://bit.ly/17kzftm ___ News and Sentinel, Parkersburg, W.Va., Sept. 6: Recently, Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin reiterated something he has been saying for many months, that the state still is working hard to attract an ethane cracker plant to West Virginia. Success in that would be applauded throughout the state, of course. But it is likely state officials are using the lure of tax breaks when they visit companies considering cracker plants. That is common practice in economic development. What about companies in other businesses? And what about firms already in West Virginia that might be able to hire more workers if their taxes were lower? Providing tax relief to all types of businesses, including companies already in the Mountain State, should be a continuing priority for Tomblin and legislators. That would result in job growth at least as significant as any brought by a new cracker plant. Online: http://newsandsentinel.com ___ The Columbus Dispatch, Sept. 6: The country has been slowly climbing out of the recession for many months, but the economic statistics that make headlines don’t tell the whole story. Possibly the most troubling aspect of this historically weak recovery is the fact that the unemployment rate has fallen largely because of a drop in the number of people in the workforce.

A particularly worrisome aspect is that the rate has fallen almost as much among 25- to 54-year-olds, who should be in their peak working years, as among the overall adult population. The first wave of retiring baby boomers plays just a small role; many in that age group actually are delaying retirement. The data are concerning not just as a sign that younger people aren’t working, and therefore aren’t moving into their own homes, buying cars and generally getting on with adult life. Without them in the workforce, there will be even fewer younger workers to pay for the Social Security of retiring baby boomers. … The short-term damage for individuals is bad enough, when they can’t find jobs. But the larger issue is what happens to the nation’s economy and the government’s fiscal situation if long-term joblessness becomes a new normal. Online: http://bit.ly/17UEPpd ___ The Herald-Dispatch, Huntington, W.Va., Sept. 8: The results of West Virginia’s venture into establishing its own system for grading school performance was unveiled last week, with the approach and presentation of findings done much differently than in previous years. After being granted a waiver from the regulations tied to the No Child Left Behind act passed by Congress a decade ago, the West Virginia Department of Education devised the new achievement grading system and incorporated its own ways of assessing schools. There’s much to like about what it came up with, going beyond just the results of how well students did last year on the WESTEST2 achievement tests taken last spring. Factored in are the graduation rates for high schools and the attendance rates for elementary and middle schools — two features reflecting how well the schools are engaging students and helping them succeed. For the first time, the assessment reflects whether students are progressing toward expected levels of proficiency on school subjects rather than just spelling out whether they are proficient or not. … For years now, the public has become accustomed to the findings presented under the framework of the No Child Left Behind Act, with its assessment of whether a school made adequate yearly progress. That information also included a more straightforward school-by-school accounting of the percentage of students meeting proficiency standards. The state’s reporting on school-by-school performance under the new system isn’t quite so clear-cut, which is a shortcoming. The state has devised an indexed scoring system for each school. It allows a certain number of points for various categories, such as how many students are performing at grade level, achievement gaps among various groups of students and so on. … State officials did offer some statewide perspective on the data, and the results were much in line with what we’ve seen before, indicating that the state’s schools have much work to do. For example, data from the WESTEST 2 showed that slightly less than half of students were proficient in math and reading. From 2012 to 2013, the number of students who met the proficiency mark on the WESTEST 2 has decreased, and well more than half of students who did not meet proficiency rates showed no academic improvement. Those are troubling signs. That type of information made more readily available for each school could help the public — and parents, in particular — understand the challenges in their children’s education. That in turn could convince parents to encourage their children to do better. Going forward, we hope that the basic results of students’ performance at each school are more transparent for the public to see. Online: http://www.herald-dispatch.com ___ Akron Beacon Journal, Sept. 8: On Sept. 4, the U.S. Department of Agriculture released its most recent report on “food insecurity” across the country. Ohio did not fare well. Just two states experienced a greater increase in the percentage of households forced to forgo meals or take other steps to compensate for lacking the resources to meet basic food needs. … Unfortunately, things are likely to get tougher for some Ohioans who face going hungry. Gov. John Kasich and his team plan to start limiting the availability of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, formerly known as food stamps. For several years, the state has received a federal waiver from work requirements linked to food stamps, the relief largely a response to the deep recession. The full waiver likely could have been extended. Instead, the Kasich administration chose to restrict the waiver to those counties with an unemployment rate exceeding 120 percent of the national rate. Otherwise, able-bodied adults without dependents must either start working or complete job training programs to receive food assistance. … John Kasich has talked about the “blessed” helping “those in the shadows.” Yet as he champions income tax cuts that largely benefit the wealthy, his administration follows the spirit, if not the entire scope, of too many in Washington, moving to restrict the availability of food assistance when the trend shows more Ohioans struggling with food insecurity.

Jonathan Trappe reported that he was having trouble controlling his balloons before landing Thursday evening just south of York Harbor, according to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. He touched down safely and required no medical attention. Instead of using a conventional hot-air balloon, Trappe was using more than 300 helium-filled balloons, like those used in in the animated movie “Up.” He lifted off Thursday morning from Maine and had hoped to be the first person to cross the Atlantic using a cluster of helium balloons. But he ran into trouble as he approached Newfoundland and was in communication with a search and rescue center in Halifax, Nova Scotia, said Lt. Steve Henley of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Stephenville. The balloonist’s movements were tracked by radar by Canadian officials, he said. Trappe told local officials that on Friday he planned to hike out of the remote area where he landed and make arrangements to remove his equipment. The U.S. man launched earlier Thursday from Caribou, Maine. “The Atlantic Ocean has been crossed many times, and in many ways, but never quite like this,” the North Carolina native said on his website before his departure. Trappe, who couldn’t immediately be reached for comment, is no stranger to cluster balloons. He’s used them to lift a faux house, as in the Disney-Pixar movie. In 2010, he crossed the English Channel using a cluster of balloons. For his trans-Atlantic crossing, the basket in which he was riding was actually a lifeboat that could have been used if he ditches in the ocean. &@>6C@JîLî#:55=6A@CEîLî�2==:A@=:D Sunday Times Sentinel Lî�� �62E9î$@E:46D Deal Belva Mae Deal, 83, of Glenwood, W.Va., passed away at Pleasant Valley Hospital on September 13, 2013.

Some employers see perks of hiring older workers (AP) — Older people searching for jobs have long fought back stereotypes that they lack the speed, technology skills and dynamism of younger applicants. But as a wave of baby boomers seeks to stay on the job later in life, some employers are finding older workers are precisely what they need. “There’s no experience like experience,” said David Mintz, CEO of dairy-free products maker Tofutti, where about one-third of the workers are over 50. “I can’t put an ad saying, ‘Older people wanted,’ but there’s no comparison.” Surveys consistently show older people believe they experience age discrimination on the job market, and although unemployment is lower among older workers, long-term unemployment is far higher. As the American population and its labor force reshape, though, with a larger chunk of older workers, some employers are slowly recognizing their skill and experience. About 200 employers, from Google to AT&T to MetLife, have signed an AARP pledge recognizing the value of experienced workers and vowing to consider applicants 50 and older. One of them, New York-based KPMG, has found success with a high proportion of older workers, who bring experience that the company says adds credibility. The auditing, tax and advisory firm says older workers also tend to be more dedicated to staying with the company, a plus for clients who like to build a relationship with a consultant they can count on to be around for years. “Some Gen Ys and Millennials have this notion of, ‘I will have five jobs in 10 years,’” said Sig Shirodkar, a human resources executive at KPMG. “We’re looking for ways to tame that beast.” Many employers find older workers help them connect with older clients. At the Vermont Country Store in Rockingham, Vt., the average customer is now in their 60s, and about half of the business’ 400 workers are over 50, coming from a range of professional backgrounds, often outside retail. “Having folks internally that are in the same demographic certainly helps to create credibility and to have empathy for our customer,” said Chris Vickers, the store’s chief executive. One such employee is 60-year-old Ashley Roland, who got a marketing job at the Vermont Country Store last year after the company she previously worked for shut down. She dreaded the thought of a marathon of unsuccessful interviews, but the seniors tend to exclude themselves store ended up recruiting her. from applying in the first place. “When I was being hired, I didn’t “The evidence is overwhelming feel any kind of concern about my that they’re better,” Cappelli said. age,” she said. “I believe in experi- “But the hiring managers are just goence.

Ohio rejects tax credit for sex aid business CINCINNATI (AP) — Officials in Cincinnati are buzzing about a state denial of tax credits to a romantic accessories business planning to move its headquarters downtown. Pure Romance has more than $100 million a year in revenues, selling sex toys, lotions, beauty products and other items. It was ready to move 60 jobs from suburban Loveland with plans to add another 60. The company and local officials say they were told via local representatives for JobsOhio, the state’s privatized job-creation agency, that the state was willing to provide a tax credit of some $100,000, added to $353,000 in city incentives. But then Pure Romance was informed there would be no state tax credit. “The city thought all systems were go; the chamber of com- merce thought it was a go …. and then the rug was pulled out from under them,” said state Sen. Eric Kearney, D-Cincinnati. The director of the Ohio Development Services Agency, David Goodman, said he denied the credits for Pure Romance after a review, saying it’s not among industries targeted for state investment such as biotech, logistics and energy, one newspaper reported. “JobsOhio is the outreach and they make suggestions, but ultimately the decision is mine,” Goodman told the newspaper. “I didn’t think it was a wise investment of state dollars. It’s not part of the targeted industries that JobsOhio typically invests in.” Pure Romance CEO Chris Cicchinelli said the business, which sells products through sales consultants who hold in-home gath- erings, plays an important role in helping marriages. “We know when communication breaks down in the bedroom, communication breaks down in the complete relationship,” Cicchinelli said. He said the business also helps women learn about sexual health issues, such as dealing with effects of cancer treatment. The city council took a vote urging the state to reconsider, and both Cincinnati mayoral candidates support incentives for Pure Romance. “This is a fast-growing company, and we should give them the same treatment we’d give any company,” said John Cranley, a former councilman. “I think it was prudish decision,” Roxanne Qualls, the current vice mayor, said of the denial of state tax credits. �&@>6C@JîLî#:55=6A@CEîLî�2==:A@=:D ��îîLîîSunday Times Sentinel Sunday, September 15, 2013 141st annual Gymanfa to be held at Nebo Church Moderator Evan E.

One newspaper reports that the letter comes amid a legal fight over whether federal law requires Ohio to provide the treatment, known as applied behavior analysis. A Clermont County couple filed a lawsuit last year, accusing the state of discriminating against children with autism by failing to provide the treatment. A federal judge issued a temporary order earlier this year that the state make sure the child received the treatment, saying his parents had established likelihood of proving their claims that the Ohio Health Department and a county board violated a federal act requiring states to provide early intervention services for children with autism, a developmental disorder.

They say their 3-year-old son Roman has made good progress under the applied behavior analysis treatment that intensively tries to teach autistic children how to learn at critical early stages of development.

Davis Special to OVP GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — Gallia Academy’s late fourth down conversions in the third and fourth quarters gave the Blue Devils a 63-38 victory over the Fairland Dragons at Memorial Field on Friday night. It was a tale of two halves, as GAHS outscored FHS 21-0 in the second half of the ball game. There was a combined score of 101 points, which is the largest number of total points ever produced at Memorial Field. The Blue Devils (2-1) — playing in front of the home crowd for the third straight week this season — found themselves in a quick rut of being down 12-0 within the first three minutes into the ball game before scoring their first score by the 8:15 minute mark in the first quarter. The Dragons (2-1) started the game with a 25-yard touchdown pass from Chance Short to Kyle Sowards. With an unsuccessful PAT, Fairland was in the lead 6-0.

The win marks the Maroon and Gold’s 18th in 21 tries over their Gallia County neighbor. It didn’t take the Marauders (21) long to shift their offense into high gear.

Three plays later Devon Cundiff plowed over from a yard out. The point after attempt failed but Meigs was on top 6-0 with 9:08 left in the first.

Once again the Raiders had a three-and-out and a short Raider punt gave Meigs the ball at the Marauder 39. Three plays later Sheets hit Davis, this time from 46 yards and another Maroon and Gold score. Sheets added the extra point for a 19-0 Meigs lead at the 3:51 mark. On the ensuing kickoff, Austin Bradley bobbled the kick momentarily; he picked up the ball and went down the sidelines 95 yards for the score giving the Raiders some life. Devin McDonald added the extra point and the Raiders had pulled to within 19-7 with 3:33 left in the period. The Marauders took the kickoff and put together a six-play, 50-yard drive the ended when Sheets threw his third touchdown pass of the first period. Sheets connected with senior Damon Jones from 14 yards out and the second period ended with the Marauders on top 25-7. Jordan Hutton became the fourth Marauder to score in the first half when he took it over from 11 yards out giving the Marauders a 31-7 lead with 9:32 left in the half. The Raiders, with the help of a 38 yard pass from Tyler Twyman to Kirk Morrow, drove to the Meigs 19 and looked to be in business. But the threat was ended when Austin Welch picked off a Twyman pass in the end zone. Cundiff scored his second touchdown off the night with a six yard run with 2:24 left in the half. Jack Unbankes added another Meigs score with two seconds left in the half giving the Marauders a 44-7 lead.

As luck would have it, the Ravens’ opponent in their home opener Sunday is the Cleveland Browns. Baltimore set two dubious franchise records in its 2013 debut at Denver on Sept. 5, allowing 49 points and seven touch- down passes for the first time. The Ravens insist they’ve corrected most of their flaws in that 22-point defeat, and that the difference will be evident against the Browns. Following pregame festivities that will include raising the banner to mark their Super Bowl victory last February, the Ravens face a team they have dominated ever since coach John Harbaugh and quarterback Joe Flacco first got together before the 2008 season. Since that time, Baltimore is 10-0 against the Browns while outscoring the AFC North rival 251-122. Throw in that the Ravens are 33-7 at home over the past five years, and it appears Baltimore (0-1) couldn’t ask for a better scenario. Naturally, the Ravens aren’t acting as if this one’s a gimme. They point out that Cleveland has a new coach, Rob Chudzinski, and two new coordinators, Norv Turn- er on offense and Ray Horton on defense. “It’s different from year to year. It’s definitely a different team,” linebacker Terrell Suggs said. “These guys are a good football team,” Flacco insisted. “They have a physical defense, and they’ve always had that since I’ve been here. We’ve played a lot of games that I feel like have been decided late.” But the Browns (0-1) lost 23-10 at home to Miami in Chudzinski’s debut, outscored 17-3 after halftime. Tornadoes From Page B1 paydirt on runs of two, four and two yards, respectively. The Golden Eagles (1-2, 0-1) didn’t fare nearly as well during that same span, as the guests punted on each of their first three series and eventually picked up their first first down of the game with barely over six minutes left until halftime. An injury late in the third quarter made for a somber mood the rest of the night, as BHS lineman Nathan Mason was carted off the field and transported to a helicopter for medical attention at a hospital. The status of that injury was unknown at press time. Both teams battled through the final 12 minutes unscathed, allowing SHS to remain unbeaten on the season following its 2013 home opener. The Tornadoes held a sizable 19514 advantage in total offensive yards at the break and finished the night with 305-77 overall edge, which included a 245-18 lead in the final rushing stats. SHS also claimed a 15-7 edge in total first downs and recorded five sacks in the triumph. For fourth-year SHS coach Kyle Wickline, this victory may be as satisfying as any that he has been a part of on the sidelines. He’s also hoping that this current trend will continue as the season progresses. “These kids have put a lot of time and effort into this, and we took some losses early on when these kids were younger,” Wickline said. “Now, we are putting together wins … and we are really enjoying what is going here now. This is something that we’ve been waiting a long time for. “We can be proud of what we’ve accomplished so far, but we still have seven more weeks of football to play. We still have a lot of work to put in between now and then.” Southern took the opening kickoff and marched 78 yards in nine plays, capped by a two-yard scoring run by Barton with 7:19 remaining for an early 6-0 cushion. Belpre went three-and-out on the ensuing possession, and Tristen Wolfe blocked the BHS punt attempt — which Paul Ramthun recovered and returned to the Golden Eagle four. Barton followed with a four-yard scoring run on the next play, giving the Tornadoes a 13-0 edge with five minutes left in the first period. The hosts put their final scoring drive together with their opening possession of the second quarter, as Southern marched 52 yards in seven plays to take a three-possession lead. Barton plunged in from two yards out with 7:04 left until halftime, making it a 19-0 advantage. Barton finished the night with 139 rushing yards on 25 carries, with 97 of those yards coming on 15 first half totes. Tristen Wolfe was next with 42 yards on 10 attempts, followed by Hunter Johnson with 27 yards on four rushes. Wolfe finished the night just 3-of-9 passing for 50 yards, which included one interception. Johnson hauled in two passes for 36 yards, while Colten Walters caught one pass for 14 yards. Dejon Bedgood — who did not play in the first half — led Belpre with 45 rushing yards on seven carries, followed by Dakota McDaniel with four yards on five attempts. Tavian Miller was 6-of-11 passing for 59 yards, which included one interception made by Zac Beegle. Miller also finished the evening with nine rushes for negative 31 yards. D.J. Leftwich hauled in two passes for 17 yards, while Bedgood had one grab for 22 yards. Casey Pickens had two sacks for the Tornadoes, while Brandon Grueser, Theron Johnson and Ramthun each recorded one sack in the triumph. Trenton Deem also recovered a fumble for the hosts. The one downside to Southern’s night came in penalties, as the Purple and Gold were flagged 11 times for 95 yards. Belpre, conversely, was penalized just five times for 44 yards. Bedgood also recovered a fumble and picked off a pass for the Golden Eagles’ defense. The Tornadoes — winners of four straight and six of seven overall — will look to keep things rolling along next Friday when they travel to Stewart for a Week 4 TVC Hocking matchup at Federal Hocking.

Complete results of the Nelsonville-York Invitational can be found on the web at www.baumspage.com Alex Hawley | Daily Tribune Eastern senior quarterback Chase Cook (9) scrambles for yardage during the Eagles 54-0 loss to Wahama, Friday night at East Shade River Stadium. �28=6Dî72==îE@î-292>2�î��� Gary Clark Special to OVP TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio — Coach Ed Cromley’s Wahama White Falcon football team bounced back from its first Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division loss in a big way Friday night with a thoroughly dominating 54-0 grid triumph over neighboring Eastern before a large turnout over their Meigs County hosts. Kane Roush scored five touchdowns and a two-point conversion run with 155 yards rushing and another 129 receiving yards to pace the Bend Area team in the one-sided win. Hunter Bradley tossed three touchdown passes while throwing for 160 yards while Wyatt Zuspan scored a pair of touchdowns and intercepted an unprecedented four Eastern (1-2, 1-1 TVC Hocking) passes to join Roush in the limelight in the White Falcon (2-1, 1-1) triumph. The affair was never in doubt as the visitors scored four times in the opening quarter to acquire an early 25-0 lead. The White Falcons added two more scores in the second period to increase its edge to 39-0 before attaching its final two touchdowns in the third canto to finish off the 54-0, shutout win. Injuries were suffered by both teams throughout the evening which lengthened the contest considerably and turned the game into a marathon event. Play was halted at least six times because of injured participants with veteran Wahama lineman, Lane Sparks, being the most serious after he was taken from the field by emergency technicians. Eastern’s leading ground gainer, Zack Scowden, also suffered an injury in the first half and never returned during the final two quarters. Hopefully all the injuries will be deemed minor and those involved may continue their respective high school gridiron seasons. Zuspan set up the Falcons’ initial two scores by picking off Eastern pass offerings during the Eagles first two offensive possessions. Zuspan intercepted a Chase Cook offering at the Eastern 40 yard line to set up a 40 yard five play series that was finished off with a seven yard Brandon Stewart scoring run. Moments later Zuspan picked off another Eagle toss and returned the interception 22 yards for the Bend Area teams second score of the night. Kane Roush then began an offensive assault against Eastern with the first of four straight touchdowns before the first half came to a conclusion. Roush opened the scoring bombardment with a 72 yard run before hauling in a 53 yard touchdown pass from Hunter Bradley. Roush added another long run, this one covering 76 yards, before finishing the first half with another touchdown reception from Bradley of 76 yards. Bradley opened the second half with a three yard scoring toss to Zuspan before Roush concluded the nights scoring activity with a three yard scamper. Bradley and Billy Joe McDermitt added point after boots with Wyatt Wooten grabbing a conversion pass from Zuspan and Roush ran another two-point conversion to round out the nights scoring activity for Wahama. The Falcons’ defense also turned in a stellar performance by limiting Eastern to a mere 31 yards of total offense. The Eagles were held to just 28 yards on the ground and three yards passing. WHS tallied 524 yards of total offense with Wahama cashing in on 328 yards rushing and another 196 through the air. Zach Browning turned in an impressive performance for Eastern with 77 yards rushing in nine carries. The Eagle defense had its moments of success despite the one-sided setback but found themselves susceptible to the visitors big play outing. Wahama will again take to the road next week for a TVC Hocking Division contest with Belpre, which lost at Southern by a count of 19-0 Friday, while Eastern hosts visiting Waterford, which lost to Fort Frye 47-0 Friday, in a league confrontation. 60449206 �&@>6C@JîLî#:55=6A@CEîLî�2==:A@=:D ��îîLîîSunday Times Sentinel Sunday, September 15, 2013 MERCHANDSE FOR SALE Bridal Items Buy 1 Get 1 for $10 Long Gowns Only! *Limited Time Only, While Supplies Last. 415 MAIN STREET POINT PLEASANT, WV (304) 675-2786 60444480 NOTICE Borrow Smart.

The boom mikes and ever-present cameras caught Bengals line- backer James Harrison doing his best to avoid having anything to do with them. Roethlisberger found it disorienting to see Harrison in orange-and-black tiger stripes rather than Pittsburgh’s colors. “It’s definitely different seeing him in anything other than black and gold, and it’s going to be different lining up across from him,” the Steelers quarterback said. “I’m just thankful that I’ve had so many years of him on my team so I didn’t have to face him for 10-12 years.” Alex Hawley/photo South Gallia senior Brynn Adams (6) spikes the ball over Belpre’s Cheyenne Henderson (23) during the Lady Rebels 3-0 victory Thursday night in Mercerville.

The streetcars traveled on tracks which extended from the Hobson yards in lower Middleport up to Pomeroy and then on up the river through Minersville and Syracuse to Racine. The Ohio River Electric Railway and Power Company began operating the streetcar line just before the turn of the 20th century and canceled its passenger service on June 26, 1929. In the mid-1920s, streetcar travel began declining as more and more automobiles were on the road. That led to fewer passengers using the streetcar and resulted in financial difficulties for the company. It was on Oct. 15 in 1899 that the first streetcar left Middleport bound for Racine, according to a research paper written by George Arnott many years ago for a history contest held by the Meigs County Historical Society. His grandfather, Glen Arnott, worked as a motorman on the streetcars from 1918 to 1925. His pay — 41 cents an hour. For that initial run on Meigs County tracks, Hayes Roush of Minersville piloted the streetcar which was filled with officials of Middleport, Pomeroy and Racine and John Blair McMafee, president of the Railway and Power Co. Spectators were said to have lined the street to watch it pass by. At first, the streetcars went only from Middleport to Racine, but then the lines were extended down to the Hobson Train Depot. They provided a vital service since roads weren’t the best, automobiles were few and far between and the horse-drawn wagons providing transportation from here to there were slow and inconvenient. The dark yellow street cars had advertising on the sides and ran on a one hour and 20 minute schedule from the Hobson Train Depot, up Second Avenue in Middleport, through Pomeroy and up to RaSee STREETCAR | C2 Streetcars in Meigs County, like this one, were a common sight from 1900 to 1929 when automobiles became the rave. In the early 1900s while horse and buggy was still the main mode of travel, the new streetcar line was gaining popularity. Here a streetcar moves up Middleport’s Second Avenue. After leaving Middleport, the streetcar moved through Pomeroy and traveled upriver picking up passengers along the way to the Drake Hotel which was the end of the line. Orville Wallace of Middleport was a conductor on a streetcar in the early years. All that remains today of the streetcar era in Meigs County is this old brick building on East Main Street in Pomeroy where the streetcars were parked for the night after the “owl run.” �&@>6C@JîLî#:55=6A@CEîLî�2==:A@=:D � îîLîîSunday Times Sentinel �@?D:56CîEC2?D:E:@?:?8îJ@FCî 9@FD6A=2?EDî:?E@îJ@FCî9@>6 Ruark-Wood wedding planned Tiffany Lynn Ruark and Howard Ernest Wood, both of Mason, will be united in marriage on Sept. 21 at Mason United Methodist Church with Pastor Tim Edin officiating.

Fox ending Smith’s nightly newscast NEW YORK (AP) — Fox News Channel is eliminating one of Shepard Smith’s two daily newscasts and putting him in charge of a news team designed to quickly break in to other Fox shows when something big is happening. Smith, the network’s top news anchor, signed a new multi-year contract, the network said Thursday. He will keep his 3 p.m. Eastern newscast while the 7 p.m. show is eliminated. “We don’t have to wait ‘til 7 anymore,” said Smith, named managing editor of the breaking news unit. “When it’s ready, we’ll put it on the air. When it’s breaking, I’m ready to do it.” Fox News Chairman and CEO Roger Ailes described Smith’s new role as a quarterback able to call an audible when news is happening and get it on the air quickly. Except for Smith’s show and Bret Baier’s Washington report, Fox’s evening schedule is driven by opinionated, personality-driven programming. Fox is building a new studio, calling it the “Fox News Deck,” for Smith to operate. The changes are likely to take place in October. “This is the way news should be presented in today’s world with the equipment and the amount of technology that is available,” Ailes said. “We’re making a ma- Sunday, September 15, 2013 jor investment in journalism here and it’s going to require journalists to be better.” The changes are among several taking place at Fox, the top-rated cable news network and the one with the most personnel stability. This summer, Fox said that Megyn Kelly would move into the network’s prime-time lineup when she returns from maternity leave, but hasn’t said where she will go and who she will displace. Ailes would not comment on published reports that Sean Hannity would move to 7 p.m. to make room for Kelly. Asked what will replace Smith’s newscast at 7 p.m., Ailes said “unclear. It’s not unclear to me. I know and I’m not telling anybody.” He rejected any notion from critics that Smith’s new unit was created as a way to compensate him for losing a regular, onehour time slot. “That’s why they’re doing what they’re doing for a living and don’t make anywhere near the money that me and Shep make,” he said. On busy days, Fox suggested he’ll be on the air more than he is now. Ailes said it was a real attempt to try something new, to use improved technology to rethink how news is presented on the air and better fuse breaking news with Fox’s other programming.

During the summer, open air cars were used and provided not just a means of transportation, but a leisurely ride along the Ohio River. For young couples of the day, a bag of popcorn and the ride to Racine and back on the streetcar constituted a big outing. For a real treat, affluent residents down river would take the street car to Racine, have lunch at the Cooper House, earlier known as the Drake Hotel, and ride back downriver.

Then there were the money changers who collected fares. As for the cost of a ride, it varied as to how far a rider wanted to go, and ranged from 6 to 14 cents. For the coal miners and railroad workers, it was their way of traveling back and forth to their jobs. Most all of them purchased tokens for the week when they got their pay checks. In addition to the regular daytime runs used by men working in the mines and on the railroad, there was a night run on what was known as an “owl car.” It ran between downtown Middleport and Hobson mainly for crews on the late night railroad trains and for nighttime bar patrons. The men who worked on the cars many times wore “dusters” over their uniforms because the crowd of miners riding home on the streetcar were covered with coal dust. The streetcar was their way of getting back and forth to work. Among the motormen working on the streetcars in the early days were Wilbur Logan, Eddie Hoeflich, Herman Warner, Roy Kasper and Ernest Lallance. Streetcars were not always without problems. They sometimes jumped the tracks or smashed into each other due to mixed up schedules. And sometimes it happened when the seats were full and some were hanging onto the sides of the car. When the cars got off the tracks, it was a major job to get them back on and the delays caused all kinds of problems especially for those who were Service Tech 3 rooms for $99 RESTORATION AND CLEANING SOLUTIONS SERVICE TRI-COUNT Y AREA Owned and Operated By: David Rice 740-446-9523 27 Years Experience on their way to work. History tells us that as late as 1910 there were no improved roads in the Meigs County except for short spaces, like in the incorporated villages of Pomeroy and Middleport. One can only imagine the everyday chaos on Middleport’s Second Avenue, on Main Street in Pomeroy and Third Street in Racine as the electric streetcars mingled with the horsedrawn buggies and a few “horseless carriages.” But things began to change in the mid 1920s. Roads were being improved and the public was finding that automobiles were a more convenient way to travel. Street car patrons became fewer and fewer as the years went by and in 1929 the Ohio River Electric Railway and Power Company made the decision to shut down its passenger service. In a visit with the late Margaret Bailey of Minersville, whose father, William L. Thomas, was a motorman on the streetcar, she told me that it was really nice to have your father working for the streetcar company. She said she was allowed to ride with him all day on Sunday and that he would let her flip the seats. Since the cars didn’t turn around, the seats had to be flipped to face in the other direction at the end of each run. She described Pomeroy as being filled with stores when she was growing up and said that if someone wanted to get groceries or do other shopping, they just took the streetcar downtown. She said you could catch a ride about any place along the route. My friend Kathleen Scott, who was born in 1905 and died in June at the age of 107, during a visit several months ago reminisced about growing up in Meigs County. She mentioned that she rode the streetcar to school. She said when she was in the eighth grade and had to go to Racine to take the eighth grade FEEL THE DIFFERENCE GALLIPOLIS CAREER COLLEGE BEGINS OCT 7TH 740-446-4367 • gallipoliscareercollege.edu 60447450 graduation test, the only way of getting there was on the streetcar. She recalled the many times she took a street car from Minersville to Pomeroy while attending Pomeroy High School. To catch the street car to Pomeroy she had to walk over the hill from Forest Run where she lived to Minersville. The fare to Pomeroy was five cents. Today all that remains of the street car industry in Meigs County is a boarded-up brick building on East Main Street located between Pomeroy Village Hall and and Mountaineer Metals. It was called the “barn.” At the end of the each’s day run, the street cars were taken there and parked inside until early the next morning when they were taken out to begin the day’s runs. The discontinued street car service in Meigs County in 1929 marked the end of one era and the beginning of another in the field of transportation — an obsession with the automobile.

Woods announces birth Santana, four others to receive Kennedy Center Honors WASHINGTON (AP) — For Carlos Santana, music has always been a calling. He idolized his mariachi musician father as a boy in their remote hometown in Mexico and later grew up with the Woodstock generation after immigrating to San Francisco. Now the music legend will join the luminaries receiving this year’s highest national honors for influencing American culture through the arts. Santana is among five who will receive the Kennedy Center Honors. Fellow honorees announced Thursday include actress Shirley MacLaine and three standout musicians spanning rock, jazz and opera — Billy Joel, Herbie Hancock and Martina Arroyo. Top entertainers will salute them in a gala performance Dec. 8 to be broadcast Dec. 29 on CBS. Santana is unique among those who have received the cultural prize. He began learning English by watching American television from Tijuana, Mexico, and picked up the guitar after hearing blues and rock ‘n’ roll on the radio. In an interview, Santana, 66, said he was grateful to receive an award he remembers watching others receive almost every year on television with his family. “I guess people understand that Santana is not just a Mexican guitar player — I bring a collective-consciousness awareness agenda with me,” he said. “I grew up with the generation of Woodstock and Bob Marley, ‘One Love,’ and ‘Imagine,’ John Lennon. I am one of them, and we don’t do what we do to be commercial or to be popular or to be cute. It’s not entertainment or show business for us. For us, it’s a calling.” He said his musical life has been about bridging cultures, drawing on sounds of Africa, Latin America and American Indians, as well as rock, jazz and the blues to create something new. Last year, the National Hispanic Foundation for the Arts complained the Kennedy Center had long excluded Latinos from the honors. Of the more than 180 past honorees, only two had been Hispanic — Placido Domingo, the acclaimed Spanish tenor, and Chita Rivera, the actress and singer of Puerto Rican descent — the group said. The criticism led to a revised selection process this year, including the solicitation of nominations from the public, and a new committee of artists and officials to help narrow the potential honorees. Santana has been a contender in recent years for his strong credentials, said show producer George Stevens Jr. Santana, who swept the 2000 Grammy Awards in nine categories with his album “Supernatural,” said more mainstream institutions should be recognizing Latino artists as well. In December, President Barack Obama will host the recipients at the White House, and Secretary of State John Kerry will host a dinner for them at the State Department. Joel, the “Piano Man” and one of the best-selling recording artists of all time, has devoted his life to music since he left high school before graduating. The 64-year-old, who wrote and performed such unforgettable hits as “Uptown Girl,” ”The Longest Time,” ”Allentown” and “We Didn’t Start the Fire,” said in a written statement that it is meaningful to join the roster of outstanding musicians who came before. “But to be chosen for this special award essentially for doing what I love most amazes me more than anything,” he said. The honors stand apart from other awards and feel almost like a homecoming, said MacLaine, 79, who grew up in nearby Arlington, Va. “It’s a more global kind of recognition … not just Hollywood or New York,” she told The Associated Press. “The people who get these awards are contributing to the world’s art, and I feel privileged to be one of them.” After nearly 60 years as one of Hollywood’s leading actresses, MacLaine hasn’t stopped. She began this year with a role in the popular “Downton Abbey” on PBS and will close 2013 with her latest film, “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty,” alongside Ben Stiller and Kristen Wiig. Hancock, born in Chicago, became a classical music prodigy after his parents bought him a piano as a boy. By age 11, he was playing with the Chicago Symphony. In high school, though, he discovered jazz and began learning by listening. “The more I looked into it, the more it pulled me like a magnet,” he said. “And I was hooked forever.” In 1963, Hancock joined the Miles Davis Quintet, one of the great jazz ensembles. He has gone on to embrace electronic music and collaborate with the likes of Annie Lennox, John Mayer and Christina Aguilera. Hancock, 73, said he is overwhelmed “to be on that list of people whose work I’ve respected for so many years during my lifetime.” Arroyo, born and raised in Harlem as the daughter of a Puerto Rican father and an African-American mother, said her voice was discovered by accident in high school when she was heard imitating the singers outside an opera workshop. She went on to star in the great opera houses of Paris, London and Vienna, and performed 199 times at the Metropolitan Opera in New York City after her breakthrough performance in “Aida” in 1965. Arroyo, 76, said she is most proud of her current work teaching young opera students, though she called receiving the Kennedy Center Honors unimaginable. “We go around the world singing, and people say oh, there’s an American singer. But this is your government saying, yeah, we like you, too,” she said. “There’s no higher group for me than my country. That makes it extremely special.” Z*@52J[îD9@HîC63@@E:?8îH:E9î�2=J�îDEF5:@îC6G2>A NEW YORK (AP) — NBC is seeking to reboot the “Today” show by adding Carson Daly, unveiling a new studio set that resembles a “hipster New York City apartment” and a sharper focus gleaned from studies of what viewers and lapsed viewers say they want. The new look will debut next Monday, and NBC executives offered a studio tour Thursday. But the real work is in the content, and new NBC News President Deborah Turness — just five weeks into her job — has made a “Today” reboot a top priority. Daly will be stationed in the studio’s new “Or- ange Room,” where he will provide continual updates on how the show’s stories are trending online and what kind of feedback viewers are offering through social media. The set’s new anchor desk will be on a revolving platform that lets “Today” personalities look out over fans peering in through the street-side window. Al Roker has a new 82-inch touch-screen weather display to play with, there’s a new orange couch and all manner of high-def screens and energy-friendly lights. “We think it’s an incredibly warm and inviting place,” Turness said. “We feel like it’s somebody’s home — our home.” The well-publicized problems at “Today” are part of the reason Turness was brought from England for the job. The once-dominant morning show had its 852week winning streak — that’s 17 years — broken by ABC’s “Good Morning America” last year. “GMA” now has a streak of its own, winning last week for the 55th week in a row. The “Today” daily audience of 4.57 million last week was 743,000 behind ABC, the Nielsen company said. Despite the change in fortunes, NBC says its studies have shown that only 10 percent of “Today” viewers who have abandoned the show over the past few years have turned to “Good Morning America” instead. “Today” is devoting itself to a mission statement that involves substance, making connections with viewers and offering people who watch something uplifting, Turness said. She pointed to stories in recent weeks involving Bradley Manning’s sex change, interrogation footage of Cleveland kidnapper Ariel Castro and Matt Lauer’s interviews with Paula Deen and Alex Rodriguez’s lawyer. “We are a news show,” Turness said. “I’ll say it again. We are a news show.” Brycen Wyatt Kemper Kempers announce the birth of their son Brycen Wyatt Kemper was born June 30, 2013. He weighed 7 lbs, 13 oz., and was 21 inches long.

An effort to update decades-old maps using airplanemounted radar technology showed the mountain, called Denali by locals, stands at 20,237 feet. That’s 83 feet shorter than an estimate of 20,320 feet from the early 1950s. McKinley would still be more than 680 feet taller than the continent’s second-highest peak, Canada’s Mount Logan. The discovery was made in 2011, after data from a 2010 flight was processed, but details weren’t widely released until this week by Lt. Gov. Mead Treadwell, who serves on the Alaska Mapping Executive Committee. Kari Craun of the U.S. Geological Survey said the technology used in the mapping is advanced but its focus is on surveying an area, not a specific point. She said more study would need to be done, but the agency did not have plans to conduct another survey or officially change the height. Here are some facts about Alaska’s terrain, the mapping technology and the quest for accurate maps in the state. ‘Mars was better mapped than Alaska’ Alaska is known for its vast, rugged and, sometimes, dangerous landscape, a place where most communities aren’t connected to the road system and residents rely heavily on airplanes for travel. Many of the state’s topographical maps go back about 50 years, roughly around statehood. Topographic data “is the most fundamental piece of infrastructure that any state can own,” said Nicholas Mastrodicasa, the state’s digital mapping project manager. But before the new mapping effort got underway, he said, “Mars was better mapped than Alaska.” No ordinary radar The radar technology is not the usual radar. It can penetrate ice and snow, Mastrodicasa said. Sensors are mounted on the belly and at the wing tips of a sleek-looking aircraft that flies at about 40,000 feet and “bombards the earth” with radar, which collects elevation data, he said. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
