See REOPENING | 2 PVH adds advanced 3-D mammography Staff Report PVH | Courtesy Pleasant Valley Hospital’s (PVH) Breast Health Center had added advanced 3-D mammography technology available in early breast cancer detection. POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — Pleasant Valley Hospital’s (PVH) Breast Health Center is the ﬁrst in the Ohio Valley Region to add the most advanced 3-D mammography technology available in early breast cancer detection, according to a press release from PVH. ”This advanced imaging system provides the patient with an enhanced examination experience,” the release stated. “The system utilizes a hexagonal designed detector system to maximize coverage and detail, as well as a curved paddle system to improve patient comfort by using less pressure.” “The new digital breast imaging technology now available at Pleasant Valley Hospital’s Comprehensive Breast Health Center, brings the highest diagnostic accuracy, quality, and early breast cancer detection to the Ohio Valley Region,” stated Jeff Noblin, FACHE, CEO. The state-of-the-art imaging takes many pictures from several angles and then produces a highly detailed 3-D image that a radiologist can examine layer by layer. The additional images make it possible for a radiologist to gain a better understanding of breast tissue. The release continued, “3-D mammography compliments standard 2-D mammography and is performed at the same time with the same system. For women who have added risk factors, such as strong family history, personal history of breast cancer or very dense breasts, 3-D mammography is especially beneﬁcial. The 3-D mammogram reduces the rate of false positives, which can put extra psychological, physical, and economic stress on See PVH | 2 One arrested for attempted break-in Staff Report AIM Media Midwest Operating, LLC center to insure the preservation of tradition, culture, crafts, music and art of the African Americans in Southeastern Ohio and to educate our diverse people about African-American traditions and about the past and present contributions of African-Americans to this country.” John Gee was a skilled carpenter who built houses in Gallipolis and donated the land at 48 Pine Street for the ﬁrst church ediﬁce. According to the Gee Center, CHESTER TWP. — One person was arrested on Wednesday after allegedly attempting to break in to a house in Chester Township. In a news release, Sheriff Keith Wood reported that on July 8, deputies responded to a burglary in progress in Chester Township. A resident at the home had reported to a family member that a male was allegedly attempting to gain entry into the residence through the back door. The caller described the male as having shaggy hair and a slight beard while wearing a cut off tank top and shorts. Deputies arrived on scene the male was taken into custody in the front yard of the residence. Upon speaking with the caller, deputies found out that the male had allegedly attempted to gain entry into the back door of the residence by attempting to open the locked door handle as well as trying to use an access code on the keypad. Deputies collected DNA evidence from the door handle as well as the keypad which will be sent to the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation for analysis. The male suspect was identiﬁed as Brian R Arnold, 43, of Pomeroy. Arnold was transported to the Middleport Jail where he was incarcerated on a charge of Attempted Trespass in a Habitation, a felony of the ﬁfth degree. A search warrant to obtain Arnold’s DNA was served on him while in the Middleport Jail. Arnold’s DNA will be sent to BCI&I for compari- son with the DNA collected from the door handle and keypad. “Mr. Arnold’s attempts to gain access into the residence failed miserably. Thanks to the quick thinking of the resident and paying close attention to details, deputies were able to identify the suspect as soon as they seen him. One of my deputies was on scene just six minutes after my ofﬁce received the initial call which was another factor in successfully apprehending the suspect. I am thankful for the safety of the resident, the quick response time, and that everything was handled quickly and diligently so that no one was hurt,” stated Sheriff Wood.

One could say that the root cause of this is the general illiteracy we have of what the Bible actually says, but if we trace it further, it would be the lack of interest we have in what the Bible says. We care not, therefore we read not. We read not, therefore we know not. And if we know not, we do not. We can’t do what we don’t know we are to do or how to do it. Perhaps the reason we do not care for it the way we should is rooted in that we turn away from what we do not want to hear, failing to realize that in turning way from it, we break the connection of what actually gives us life and hope. As an example of this, people who work with those who struggle with addiction ﬁnd that the truth that they share with those who are struggling is often rejected. What they say may be very true, but because the truth is painful, the hearer dismisses it and strives to ﬁnd others who will say what they want to hear, only to be further entangled in the coils of an truer because lots addictive lifestyle. of people believe Spiritual truths them. are like that.

But lies become no If you want to ﬁnd your bearing in this tempest of hate mongering and fear surrounding us today and if you want to ﬁnd peace in your life as you come to grips with what God actually says about who you are and what your life is really all about, you must come to His Word, the Bible. You must open your heart and ask His help in prayer to have your heart opened even as you open the Bible’s pages. You must read, hear, and trust His Words. You must consider them, let them become a part of you, and you must obey them. You obey them because the One Who speaks them, speaks them in holiness. The Bible’s words are right and pure. They are the lifeline that God sends you to know His gift of salvation, forgiveness, hope, and victory. “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him” (Colossians 3:16-17 ESV). Search the Scriptures: Pray for our country Prayer is one of the most powerful and comforting of abilities given by God to His children. Jesus taught, “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will ﬁnd; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks ﬁnds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. Or which one of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a ﬁsh, will give him a serpent? If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him! (Matthew 7:7-11; ESV)” We are reminded, “Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. (James 5:16; ESV)” Amongst the things that God wants His people to pray for is peace and stability in their times. He counseled His people in the Old Testament, “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6). Elsewhen, as they went into captivity into Babylon, He likewise told them, “seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will ﬁnd your welfare (Jeremiah29:7; ESV).” In the New Testament, we read a very similar sentiment: “First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and digniﬁed in every way. (1 Timothy 2:1-2; ESV)” Prayer is powerful, and if God’s people will pray with thanksgiving and love for their government and laws, so that those same will allow God’s people to serve God with dignity and in peace, they can know they are praying according to God’s revealed will and that God will work providentially to answer such prayers. With that being said, how horrible would it be to realize that a country is so far gone so as to no longer be a valid object for prayers. Jeremiah, committing a sin that righteous not leading to man of God, faced death, he shall ask, many challenges and God will give during his ministry him life—to those as he preached who commit sins God’s coming that do not lead to wrath, but surely one of the most Jonathan death.

Jeremiah to repentance (cf. Luke 11:14; 14:11).” So far 13:3). What is true of gone were the Jews in their sins, and so certain individuals can also, we was the judgment against glean from Jeremiah’s them, and so hardened were the hearts of the people against repentance, that God knew that prayer would make no difference, and, more than just being futile, it would be insulting to the righteous values of God. There is a similar passage in the New Testament, where the apostle John comments, “If anyone sees his brother text, be true of societies and nations and cultures. When we refuse to acknowledge our sins, refuse to consider the need for forgiveness, and glory in our shame (cf. Philippians 3:19), we are not going to be objects of blessings; rather we will be objects of wrath and judgment. Only God knows for sure when a nation has crossed that line. Jeremiah, in his day, was not to pray for sinful Israel but he was told to command his countrymen to pray for Babylon, which was not exactly a culture of virtue and righteousness. Paul urged ﬁrst-century Christians to pray for their leaders, few of whom were noble paragons of morality; yet Jesus also predicted that ﬁrst-century Jerusalem GOD’S KIDS KORNER How does your garden grow? seeds on the walking Jesus wasn’t Have you ever path.

Gray will start the 60-game season and lead a rotation that he joined only last year, manager David Bell announced Wednesday. CINCINNATI (AP) — Sonny Gray knows what it’s like to start a season opener in front of a crowd, having done it twice with Oakland. His third time will be the most different and memorable of all. Cincinnati Reds manager David Bell chose Gray to start the 60-game season and lead a rotation that he joined only last year. Bell announced Wednesday that Luis Castillo — last year’s opening day starter — would be second in the rotation, followed by Trevor Bauer, left-hander Wade Miley and Anthony DeSclafani. Gray started openers for the Athletics in 2014 and 2015, throwing a combined 14 shutout innings while getting a win and a no-decision. He’s in line to face the Detroit Tigers at Great American Ball Park on July 24 as Major League Baseball starts a season shortened because of the pandemic. “It’s going to be an important day,” Gray said Wednesday before practice. “Baseball will be back, and it will be back in some of the weirdest and craziest circumstances. “When you look back on this in 20 or 30 years, everybody will remember 2020.” The Reds acquired Gray from the Yankees before the 2019 season. He became an All-Star for the second time, going 11-8 with a 2.87 ERA. Gray hasn’t allowed more than six hits in any of his last 33 starts, the longest such streak in major league history. Bell chose Gray over Castillo based upon the pitchers’ readiness and the match-ups to start the season. Both pitchers were All-Stars last season and will anchor a rotation that was improved by the off-season addition of Miley. “It tells the story right there,” Bell said. “When you have Luis Castillo and Trevor Bauer and Wade Miley and Anthony DeSclafani — who made great strides last year — and none of those guys is the opening day starter, it says a lot.” Gray worked out in Tennessee after spring training was called off. He expects to throw 65-70 pitches during a workout Thursday at Great American See GRAY | 8 Ivy League suspends fall sports due to coronavirus pandemic By Doug Feinberg and Jimmy Golen AP Sports Writers The Ivy League on Wednesday became the ﬁrst Division I conference to suspend all fall sports, including football, leaving open the possibility of moving some seasons to the spring if the coronavirus pandemic is better controlled by then. “We simply do not believe we can create and maintain an environment for intercollegiate athletic competition that meets our requirements for safety and acceptable levels of risk,” the Ivy League Council of Presidents said in a statement. “We are entrusted to create and maintain an educational environment that is guided by health and safety considerations. There can be no greater responsibility — and that is the basis for this difﬁcult decision.” Though the coalition of eight academically elite schools does not grant athletic scholarships or compete for an NCAA football championship, the move could have ripple effects throughout the big business of college sports. It was the Ivy League’s March 10 decision to scuttle its postseason basketball tournament that preceded a cascade of cancellations. All major college and professional sports were halted within days. Football players in the Power Five conferences have already begun workouts for a season that starts on Aug. 29, even as their schools weigh whether to open their campuses to students or continue classes remotely. More than a dozen prominent programs from Clemson to LSU to Oklahoma have reported positive tests among their athletes in the few weeks since voluntary workouts began. Some have temporarily shut down the workouts, incluidng Ohio State and North Carolina on Wednesday alone. Dr. Chris Kratochvil, the chair of the Big Ten’s infectious disease task force, said there is no “hard deadline” for a decision on sports. “Of course, we watch everything that’s going on,” said Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby, whose league has schools in ﬁve states from West Virginia to Iowa and Texas. “But we’re going to go forward and do our own evaluation, and so far our scientists and medical people are telling us that we should stay the course, and learn as we go and move slowly and evaluate as we go.” The Ivy League announcement affects not just football but soccer, ﬁeld hockey, volleyball and cross country, as well as the fall portion of winter sports like basketball. Wednesday’s decision means Harvard and Yale will not play football in 2020, interrupting a rivalry known as The Game for the ﬁrst time since the two World Wars. “This news is disappointing for all of us,” Harvard athletic director Erin McDermott said. “While the Fall 2020 experience will be unlike any other, I am conﬁdent that we will ﬁnd positive opportunities in this challenging time. We will keep moving forward through this painful but temporary experience, together.” The league said it has not yet determined whether some seasons can be moved to the spring. But the conference noted that its schools already are limiting gatherings, visitors and travel for students and staff. “As athletics is expected to operate consistent with campus policies, it will not be possible for Ivy League teams to participate in intercollegiate athletics competition prior to the end of the fall semester,” the league said. Ivy League schools are spread across seven Northeastern states that, as of mid-July, have seen some success at mitigating the spread of COVID-19. But most of those states still ban large See FALL | 8 Jay LaPrete | AP file The Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio, will host consecutive tournaments over the next two weeks — the Workday Charity Open, which takes the place of the canceled John Deere Classic, then the Memorial. The challenge for the PGA Tour is to make the course feel different to the players in two PGA Tour events on the same golf course in consecutive weeks for the first time in 63 years. How to make 1 golf course look like 2 tournaments By Doug Ferguson AP Golf Writer Muirﬁeld Village will look the same to those watching at home, minus the grandstands and thousands of spectators spread across the course Jack Nicklaus built. The challenge for the PGA Tour is to make it feel different to the players who will be in Dublin, Ohio, the next two weeks. For the ﬁrst time in 63 years, two PGA Tour events are being held on the same golf course in consecutive weeks. First up is the Workday Charity Open, a tournament that didn’t even exist six weeks ago until the John Deere Classic chose to cancel this year without fans and the tour plugged the gap in the schedule with a big assist from San Francisco-based Workday. Then it’s onto the Memorial. It’s one thing to keep one of the elite courses on the PGA Tour from getting chewed up from 157 players this week and the 120-man ﬁeld next week. It’s another to present a different test for two tournaments meant to be entirely different. The plan is for one to be a little more gentle, the other to be a little tougher. “I think this week we’re going to have to be a little bit cautious with the golf course, certainly out of respect to Mr. Nicklaus and the Memorial Tournament being next week,” said Gary Young, the PGA Tour rules ofﬁcial overseeing the Workday Charity Open. The rough that frames the generous fairways is to be topped off at 3 1/2 inches, and then thicker and higher for the Memorial. The greens are to be running around 11 on the Stimpmeter this week before increasing to 13 and beyond for the Memorial, just the way Nicklaus likes it. Tees will be moved around, especially on the par 3s, to keep the turf from being divotﬁlled. Slower greens should allow ofﬁcials to use pin positions closer to some of the ridges, which would be impossible with faster green speeds. One possibility is a front right pin position on the par-3 fourth, with a bunker to the right and a green that moves left. Young also anticipates the tee being moved forward on the 14th hole — just as it was for one session in the 2013 Presidents Cup — allowing players to try to drive the green with water to the right, which also comes into play with anything left because the green slopes toward the water. “I just think it’s going to give us a chance to really highlight the golf course being played in two different ways,” Young said. Memorial has one of the strongest ﬁelds each year, largely out of respect for Nicklaus, an afﬁnity for Muirﬁeld Village and its place on the calendar. In nonpandemic years, the Memorial is two weeks before the U.S. Open. The Workday Charity Open, a one-time event with the John Deere returning in 2021, didn’t do too badly. The ﬁeld features ﬁve of the top 10 in the world, with Jon Rahm at No. 2 and getting another chance to replace Rory McIlroy (not playing) atop the world ranking. Also playing is Brooks Koepka and Justin Thomas, Patrick Cantlay and Patrick Reed. Cantlay is the defending champion at Muirﬁeld Village, just not this tournament. “The more weeks we can play at Muirﬁeld Village, I’m in,” Cantlay said. “I like the golf course, so we can play there every week as far as I’m concerned.” The last time the PGA Tour had back-to-back tournaments on the same golf course was in 1957, ﬁve years before Nicklaus turned pro. The All American Open and the World Championship of Golf was played at Tam O’Shanter in Illinois. That was the case for 10 straight years, while there was another instance of consecutive events at Preston Hollow in Dallas, a one-time deal to celebrate the centennial of Dallas. More recently, Pinehurst No. 2 had tournaments in consecutive weeks in 2014, and not just any tournament. The U.S. Open was held one week, and the U.S. Women’s Open was held the following week. That was one of the great performances by the USGA, which used all its agronomic tools to set the tees and get the turf just the right ﬁrmness so the men and women experienced the same test. Martin Kaymer won in a runaway. Michelle Wie won her only major. Memorial champions in the ﬁeld for the ﬁrst event include Cantlay and Hideki Matsuyama, Jason Dufner and Matt Kuchar, Steve Stricker and Justin Rose. Tiger Woods, a ﬁvetime Memorial champion who went 4-1 in the Presidents Cup at Muirﬁeld Village, still hasn’t played competitively since February. His best chance to return would be next week. �SPORTS/CLASSIFIEDS 8 Friday, July 10, 2020 Gray lead. “My skill set is built for a long season — I’m super durable and I train From page 7 for that way,” Bauer said. “I’m not as good (in) a Ball Park as he builds sprint because I haven’t toward the opener.
