The new Hemlock Grove Church.

Out of the ashes: Hemlock Grove
Church resurrected after fire
By Charlene Hoeflich

hoeflich@mydailysentinel.com

HEMLOCK GROVE – Dedication of
the new Hemlock Grove Christian Church,
replacing the one destroyed by a fire set by
arsonists on Aug. 8, 2010, will take place
at 2 p.m. Sunday.
A special invitation is being given to
those who contributed more than $94,000
toward the rebuilding of the church replacing the one which served the community
since the 1960s. The four people responsible for the fire have now been sentenced
and forgiven by the church members as a
symbol of their Christian faith.
The news church features a sanctuary
to accommodate 130 people, a fellowship
hall, two bathrooms, a communion closet,
a kitchenette and a store room. A special
feature are two large crosses, one displayed in the foyer, the other in the sanctuary, created by Fred Baloy from burnt
timbers of the old church. The communion
table was built by Don Cullums, and many
other congregation members contributed
their skills to the church rebuilding.
Remaining to be completed are the
landscaping and an outside structure to accommodate the bell salvaged from the fire.
The Sunday service will feature the act
of dedication with recognition of those attending who contributed to the rebuilding
Members of the Church Board prepare more than 300 invitations of the church, communion for those who

JACKSON — Area landowners and residents are invited to attend a special Oil
and Gas Development Briefing, sponsored by the Gallia,
Jackson-Vinton, Lawrence,
Pike and Scioto County
Farm Bureaus, Ohio Valley Regional Development
Commission (OVRDC) and
the Ohio Department of Agriculture (ODA).
New technology, access
to deeper shale formations
and revised estimates on
petroleum and natural gas
reserves are combining to
create a potential economic
boom in many of Ohio’s rural areas.
The program will be facilitated by Dale Arnold, Director for Energy Services
with the Ohio Farm Bureau
Federation (OFBF), and
will feature resource speakers from the Ohio Department of Agriculture (ODA)
and the Ohio Department of
Natural Resources (ODNR).
“Many of Ohio rural areas will see a resurgence
of oil and gas exploration,”
said Dale Arnold. “We are
pleased to work closely with
ODA Director James Zehringer and ODNR Director
David Mustine as they provide leadership to make sure
Ohio’s farmers and landowners are aware of how
best to protect their interests
before signing new lease
agreements.”
“Many residents in the
area have a number of questions,” said Kim Harless,
Organization Director, of
the Farm Bureau.

Middleport to examine cost of pool demolition
By Brian Reed

BReed@mydailysentinel.com

MIDDLEPORT — The Village
of Middleport will begin examining
the cost of demolishing its swimming
pool.

The pool has been closed for four
summers, and while residents there
and in surrounding communities
have a strong emotional attachment
to the historic public pool, its day has
passed, Mayor Michael Gerlach said.
It is no longer practical to think it can
be repaired or kept up for public use,

and could even pose a safety risk.
At last week’s regular meeting of
Middleport Village Council, Councilman Craig Wehrung suggested
council seek a general cost estimate
for demolishing the pool. Council
agreed, and Gerlach will contact at
least one demolition company to find

out just what it would cost to tear the
pool down.
Located in General Hartinger
Park, the Middleport Pool was built
in the mid-1950’s, and for decades
was a summer institution, providing summer recreation and serving

overprotective and that their kids
need to get used to the idea that
they can’t always get what they
see on TV. Are kids really so influenced by the ads they see on television to want to eat the foods or
play with the toys they see? — P.J.
Dear P.J.: Advertisers are good
at what they do, and it’s their job
to make you want their product. If
you look closely at your own life,
you’ll probably have to admit that
at one time or another, even you
were persuaded by advertising to
purchase a product. Now think
about how much less kids are
equipped with the tools to resist
these ads — self-control, rational
thinking or an appreciation of delayed gratification. It is especially
interesting to note that kids who
are bombarded with these messages over and over — meaning
kids who watch a lot of television
each day — are more susceptible

In some ways, you might be
right — your neighbors’ kids
likely do need to learn this valuable life lesson, that they won’t
always be able to have everything
they see in ads. But for one thing,
you’re not the one to teach them
this lesson, especially if you’ve
been given specific instructions
by their parents about how to
address the issue. If you’re really concerned, you can speak to
your neighbors about it and see
if they’d be OK with their kids
watching some commercial television when you’re baby-sitting,
as long as you spend time on activities that also work on self-control and those other abilities that
allow us, as adults, to better resist
the temptations of advertisements
we see on a daily basis.

GALLIPOLIS — Gallia County Sheriff
Joe Browning announced Friday that 10
area county corrections officers have graduated from the Gallia County Sheriff’s Corrections Officer Academy.
Certifications were presented on Sept.
20 to the graduates, eight of which are from
Gallia County and two from Jackson County.
Of the graduates, Corrections Officer
Nicholas Cain received the Honor Graduate Award, an award given to the recruit
who, through his or her efforts and dedication, inspires other recruits in the class
and attains the high score during his or
her first attempt at passing the corrections
office exam administered by the state of
Ohio.
“Gallia County can be very proud of the
graduates from the correctional academy,”
Browning said, praising the type of people
who work to keep the public safe.
“The graduates exemplify the type of in-

OHIO VALLEY — Homeowners, have large (nickel sized) brownish insects
been flying around windows and doorways looking to get inside homes?
The pest, the Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (Halyomorpha halys), is a nonnative pest from China,
Japan, and Korean that was
discovered in Allentown,
Pennsylvania in 1996. It
has spread westward into
southern Indiana. The bug
is five eighths inches long
and three eighths inches
wide with white and brown
banding on its body’s edge,
legs and antennae.
The brown stink bugs
feeds on fruits and seed
pods. OSU Extension factsheet, FS 3824, “Brown
Marmorated Stink Bug”
on www.ohioline.osu.edu,

states its favorite plants include such plants as apple,
peach, corn, soybean, green
beans, pepper, paulownia
(empress tree), redbud, butterfly bush, maple, sweet
gum and many others. It
feeds by sucking on the
plant juices with its beak
(straw-like mouth parts)
causing substantial damage
to peaches, tomatoes, sweet
corn and other fruit.
The life cycle of the bug
is that they overwinter as
adults in a protected spot
(house, garage, cave, hollow tree). They emerge in
the Spring in early May.
They feed, mate and lays
eggs on the under side of
leaves. Each female can
lay up to 400 eggs over the
summer, in clusters of 25
eggs. The young bug (instar) emerges and starts to
feed.
It takes five stages of
growth spurts to occur over

the next couple months before they are full grown.
They mature just in time to
congregate to find places to
hide out in to overwinter.
Rutgers University suggests that you do your best
to prevent them from entering your home. Placement
of screens over windows,
doors and vents, removal
of window air conditioners
and caulking cracks in windows and door frames will
deter the adults from entering. Removal of window air
conditioners is important,
as numerous Brown Marmorated stink bugs will enter this way.
If small numbers occur indoors, they can be
removed either by hand or
by using a vacuum with
disposable bag. Dropping
adult bugs in soapy water
effectively kills the bugs If
large numbers are observed
or have been observed in

previous years, you may
wish to contact your local
pest control company who
can do a perimeter pesticide
spray.
This must be done at
the appropriate time (when
the insects first appear) and
control may still be difficult
to achieve. Do not spray inside your home. Homeowners wanting to spray outside need to use pyrethoids
sprays that are labeled
for controlling stinkbugs.
Check out insecticides with
the active ingredients lambda-cyhalothrin and cyfluthrin. Follow label directions
when applying pesticides..
Current research has not
confirmed any harm from
these stinkbugs to humans.
They are not able to bite humans, spread a human disease or cause a health problem but are just a hassle.
Information is being
gathered throughout the

country to register the
spread of the bug into new
areas. Ohio State University and other Midwest
states have been conducting research this summer as
to their numbers, life cycle
and damage by trapping the
stinkbugs throughout the
season using pheromone
and black light traps.
We have noticed them in
the Middleport, Syracuse
and Pomeroy regions. Call
my office at 992-6696 if
you have them present in
areas outside of these regions.

COLUMBUS,
Ohio
(AP) — A state panel
charged with drawing
Ohio’s new legislative districts voted unanimously
Friday to restore portions
of a historically black state
Senate district in Cleveland
to address what the leader of
the legislative Black Caucus said were civil-rights
concerns over boundaries
approved earlier this week.
The state Apportionment Board voted 4-0 at an
emergency meeting on the
change requested by state
Rep. Sandra Williams, who
heads the Ohio Legislative
Black Caucus.
Williams said she lobbied House Speaker Bill
Batchelder for the changes
on her own, not at the behest of the caucus. She said
the caucus never discussed
the issue.
The changes place two
Ohio House districts on
Cleveland’s west side back

into Senate District 21,
making its voters more than
35 percent black, and places some east-side suburbs
back in District 25.
Republican Gov. John
Kasich, who chairs the
board, said the meeting had
to be held hastily to meet a
Saturday deadline.
Williams’
suggested
changes were up before
the panel on Wednesday,
when it was thought the
board had concluded its
work. But House Minority Leader Armond Budish,
the map-drawing panel’s
sole Democratic member,
said he didn’t believe the
amendment reflected Williams’ wishes and so they
were dropped and a final
map was approved without
them.
Budish missed Friday’s
meeting because of a religious holiday.
Both the state senators
whose districts were affect-

ed by Williams’ proposal
— black Democrats Shirley
Smith and Nina Turner —
criticized the changes.
Turner said the changes
“slice and dice communities” and misalign politics
and economics.
“The communities in
northeast Ohio should
be insulted that those in
control of this process reduced the kaleidoscope of
our viewpoints and beliefs
down to the color of our
skin, ignoring the distinct
needs, challenges and opportunities within individual communities,” she said
in a statement. “This is an
affront to all Ohioans who
are looking to their leaders
to create jobs and move our
economy forward, not secure jobs for themselves at
the Capitol.”
Smith, who represents
the district Williams sought
to protect, complained that
Williams neither consulted

her nor returned her phone
calls before making the
change. She said the lines
were drawn so that Williams could seek Smith’s
seat when she is forced out
by term limits.
Williams said Senate
District 25, currently held
by Turner, has been represented by both blacks and
whites over the years but
District 21 was specifically
carved out in 1967 to provide a voice for Cleveland
blacks in the state Legislature.
“Legislators, both Republicans and Democrats,
carved this district for both
a city of Cleveland representative and for an African American representative,” Williams said after
Friday’s vote. “And I think
if we mess that up we are
destroying a legacy that
has been given to us by our
forefathers, and I just don’t
think we should do that.”

Legislators re-drawing
Ohio Senate districts in
the once-a-decade process faced a conundrum
in Cleveland because they
needed to protect AfricanAmerican
representation
under the Voting Rights Act
while grappling with significant population loss in
the city.
Williams said she may
indeed run for the District
21 seat once her time in the
Ohio House is exhausted.
“I know for a fact that

there are about four or five
people who are planning on
running for the state Senate,
and I know that nothing is a
guarantee for me,” she said.
“What’s most important to
me, as you will always realize, is that I look to the past
to look what has been done
for us, to try to pave the
way for us to come along,
and to try to make sure we
maintain it as we go along.”
She said she will try to
reunite the caucus once the
dust settles.

Ohio uranium plant
developer says layoffs possible

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The
developer of a uranium enrichment
project in southern Ohio said Friday it is
suspending contracts with some suppliers and notifying about 450 workers in
Ohio, Tennessee and Maryland that they
might be laid off if uncertainty about
funding means it has to stop most activity on the project.
Bethesda, Md.-based developer
USEC Inc. has had trouble securing a
$2 billion federal loan guarantee it says
is needed for construction to move forward on the American Centrifuge Plant
in Piketon, about 65 miles south of Columbus, and it’s taking the first steps toward possibly demobilizing the project.
It plans to mail notices about possible layoffs to more than 200 American Centrifuge workers each in Ohio
and Tennessee and a handful more at its

headquarters, USEC spokesman Paul
Jacobson said. The company said that it
is reducing its spending on the project
by about 30 percent during October, and
that layoffs and further reductions are
likely if it doesn’t have the loan guarantee by November.
“We want to get this done,” Jacobson said. “We think it’s the right thing
to do, but we can’t go on spending at the
current rate indefinitely. We have to be
respectful of managing the company’s
resources.”
Ohio Gov. John Kasich has urged
President Barack Obama to include support for the project in his job creation
plan, saying several thousand jobs directly or indirectly linked to the project
were at risk.
Kasich told reporters on Friday that
he had spoken with USEC on Thursday

night and said he planned to write a second letter to Obama about approval for
the federal loan.
“What happened today is the company’s basically saying, ‘We need to
know,’” Kasich said. “It would be tragic
if we lost this because it is absolutely the
right thing for the country and it is obviously the right thing for Ohio.”
The plant would be at the site of a
former gaseous diffusion plant that enriched uranium during the Cold War. It
would produce enriched uranium for
use in generating electricity at nuclear
power plants.
Damien LaVera, a spokesman for
the U.S. Department of Energy, said the
agency has been working with USEC
as it’s been testing its technology, ob-

First lady a not-so-secret 2012 campaign weapon

Nancy Benac

Associated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) —
She’s mingled barefoot among
Aspen’s elite, stirred a Vermont
utility executive to tears and
bucked up disenchanted New
Yorkers.
The 2012 presidential campaign is well under way for Michelle Obama, and the first lady
is promising to put herself into
the election effort like never before. More than a year out from
Election Day, she is hauling in
millions in campaign cash and
sketching a portrait of her husband that is drawn with an intimacy that no one else could duplicate.
The first lady always ends her
speeches to Democratic donors
with two questions: “Are you in?
Are you fired up?”
It’s a call to arms that the
Obama campaign needs more
than ever this election, when the
combination of a weak economy
and dampened enthusiasm for the
president are creating a tougher
climate for raising money.
Since mid-May, the first lady
has headlined more than a dozen
fundraisers for her husband and
the Democratic Party, at sites
from Burlington, Vt., to Berkeley,

Calif. She’s cramming in three
more events in Maine and Rhode
Island within six hours on Friday,
the last day of a closely watched
reporting period for quarterly
campaign fundraising. She’s also
blasted out a number of mass
emails to party faithful trying
to recapture the energy that has
waned since her husband’s 2008
campaign.
“He needs you to work like
you’ve never worked before,”
Mrs. Obama tells audience after
audience. “Every day. And that’s
what I plan on doing.”
On Thursday, the Obama
campaign popped out an email
from Mrs. Obama urging people
to donate even as little as $3 before Friday’s quarterly deadline to
be in the running for dinner with
her husband.
White House officials say
the first lady’s political pace will
pick up in coming months: She’s
promised a “rigorous” schedule
— without taking too much time
away from the Obamas’ 10- and
13-year-old daughters. Inevitably,
family obligations mean she’s not
out there as much as some Democratic partisans would like for one
of the party’s prime assets.
At the podium the first lady
is both poised and cautious. She
often speaks from a teleprompter

and relies heavily on her stump
speech, addressing largely sympathetic audiences at closed
fundraisers. “My motto is: Do
no harm,” she joked to reporters
when asked about her political
role.
Mrs. Obama surely has not
forgotten the flak she caught during the 2008 campaign for her
remark that for the first time in
her adult life she was proud of the
United States. She later issued a
clarification saying she had always been proud of her country.
While Mrs. Obama campaigned for her husband’s election in 2008 (and participated in
30 midterm political events) there
are different dynamics this time:
—Barack Obama’s day job is
a lot more demanding now, forcing him to rely more on others to
press the case for his re-election.
During the debt crisis last summer, the president had to cancel
10 fundraisers around the country. Mrs. Obama’s schedule was
unaffected.
—The first lady’s popularity has remained high even as
the president’s has slipped. Polls
show she has broader appeal than
her husband with a number of
groups that could be troublesome
for Obama next year, including
senior citizens, whites and people

in the West and Midwest. While
she is popular with both sexes,
women express more deeply favorable views of Mrs. Obama:
47 percent say they have “very
favorable” opinions of her, compared to 31 percent of men. A
number of her fundraisers have
been before largely female audiences.
—The first lady can easily
travel to smaller cities and outof-the-way places that are more
difficult for Air Force One and a
cumbersome presidential entourage to reach. On July 26, she hit
a $1,000-and-up breakfast in Park
City, Utah, and a $1,000-and-up
luncheon in Aspen, Colo., where
she kicked off her shoes and
mingled in a tent on the lawn. On
June 30, she fit in two fundraisers in Burlington, Vt., and one in
Boston. On Friday, she’ll be in
Portland, Maine, and Providence,
R.I.
—Mrs. Obama is more at ease
as a campaign surrogate now,
after years in the spotlight. At
the start of each appearance she
gives a shout-out to prominent
locals, singling out “amazing”
politicians and “favorite” people.
Trying to humanize her husband,
she tells audience after audience
about the quiet moments, after
their daughters are asleep, when

Obama hunches over letters from
struggling Americans. “I see the
sadness and the worry creasing
his face,” she tells her listeners.
Campaign manager Jim Messina says Mrs. Obama is a unique
ambassador for her husband because of her front-row seat during
his first term and her knowledge
of his character. “She was an
enormous asset to the president
traveling the country in 2008, and
we expect that she’ll play just as
critical a role in 2012,” he said.
Mary Powell, a Vermont utility executive, said her 15-year-old
daughter used some of the money
she inherited after her grandfather’s recent death to attend the
first lady’s luncheon in Burlington last summer, and both mother
and daughter came away from the
event moved.
“I found myself tearing up a
couple of times,” Powell said.
“She feels like the real deal.”
Feminist leader Gloria
Steinem, who appeared alongside Mrs. Obama at a New York
fundraiser last week, describes
the scene there as “a room full of
New York women who are activists, who care deeply about the issues, many of whom are feeling
that the president could have been
stronger as a negotiator, that he’s
handcuffed by the right wing.”

“You can imagine the feeling
in a New York room,” Steinem
said. “Well, by the end of her
speech, people were standing up
cheering and ready to go to work.
It was a transformation.”
The first lady is constantly
under a microscope. She was
criticized earlier this month for
wearing diamond bracelets costing tens of thousands of dollars
to one of the New York fundraisers. (She had borrowed the jewels
from a store for the night.)
In general, though, first ladies
are afforded more respect and
leeway in campaigning, and they
speak in more controlled environments than do the wives of presidential hopefuls, who are thrown
into an exhausting, rough-andtumble political scene and can
more easily fall victim to gaffes.
“First ladies can scoop up
considerable amounts of cash and
considerable amounts of good
will,” says GOP strategist Rich
Galen. “There’s almost no downside.”
In 2004, Laura Bush raised
more than $15 million for George
W. Bush and the GOP and kept a
busy separate political schedule.
White House aides say it’s
too early to set a goal for Mrs.
Obama, but she’ll go wherever
the campaign directs.

conflicting portrait of Rodemeyer’s
life did not convey were the complexities of the teenage mind and the
reality that bullying is rarely the sole
factor at work. It also highlighted the
risk of creating an icon at the price
of glamorizing suicide as an option
for other bullied or attention-seeking
teens.
“If we portray it as something
that is admirable and very sympathetic, vulnerable youth may hear that as,
‘Look at the attention this case is getting and everyone is feeling sorry and
praising this individual,’ and it can
form a narrative that can be compelling,” said Ann Haas, senior project
specialist at the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
Like in other prominent teenage
deaths linked to bullying or intimidation — notably Phoebe Prince, an
Irish immigrant in Massachusetts
taunted by classmates after she dated
a popular boy, and Tyler Clementi, a
Rutgers University freshman whose

roommate is accused of spying on his
same-sex encounter via webcam —
police are investigating to see whether any bullying constituted a crime.
Tracy Rodemeyer said her son
was hurt deeply by words from the
time he was very young. Boys started
picking on him in elementary school,
she said.
“People would say, ‘Oh my god,
you’re such a girl. What are you,
gay? That kind of stuff,” she told The
Associated Press in an interview last
week.
By middle school, the bullying
was overwhelming, she said. His
friends would report the abuse, and
school officials would pull the boy
and the alleged bullies into the office. Rodemeyer also regularly saw a
school social worker, who would call
his mother after meetings.
“People would be like ‘faggot,
fag,’ and they’d taunt me in the hallways and I felt like I could never escape it,” he said in a YouTube video
posted in May as part of columnist
Dan Savage’s “It Gets Better” project, which seeks to give voices and
hope to bullied gay and lesbian teenagers. The teen’s video has now been
viewed more than a million times.
He had talked about suicide in
the past but denied recently that the
bullying had carried over to high
school, which he started shortly before his death, his mother said. He
was making plans to attend dances
with girlfriends and had talked about
the next family vacation and Halloween.
His parents monitored his Face-

book posts but said they didn’t know
about a separate Tumblr blog, on
which he identified himself as gay,
filled with troubling posts like “Stop
bullying people. Maybe they won’t
commit suicide” and “Ugh today
makes me wanna kill myself.”
His final blog and Twitter posts
on Sept. 18, the day he died, thanked
Gaga. He also wrote: “I pray the
fame won’t take my life,” possibly a
reference to her song and album “The
Fame.”
When Gaga projected his image
on a screen during a concert in Las
Vegas last weekend and dedicated a
song to him, his celebrity status was
undeniable.
When a Gaga song began playing
at the school homecoming dance the
day of the teen’s wake, his sister and
her friends began dancing and chanting, “Jamey.” Some schoolmates
responded by yelling that they were
glad he was dead, his father, Tim,
told the AP. School officials are investigating.
Neither Savage, who appeared
on network news shows after the
suicide, nor Gaga have responded to
AP requests for comment. Gaga has
promised to push President Barack
Obama to make a law in his memory.
If he does, Rodemeyer wouldn’t
be the first gay suicide victim to be
memorialized with such legislation.
Two New Jersey lawmakers are
pushing a federal anti-harassment
and cyberbullying bill bearing Clementi’s name.
New Jersey’s own anti-bullying
laws were tightened following the

death of 18-year-old Clementi on
Sept. 22, 2010, who jumped off
the George Washington Bridge between New Jersey and New York
amid a rash of suicides nationwide
that brought attention to the problem. Clementi’s roommate has been
charged with a hate crime and invasion of privacy.
The death of Prince, a heterosexual teen who killed herself in Massachusetts in January 2010, resulted
in civil rights charges against five of
her classmates and then plea deals, as
well as state legislation called “Phoebe’s Law” to crack down on bullying.
Suicide prevention and human
rights groups, saying some of the
news coverage of those and other
deaths was oversimplified or sensationalized, collaborated last year on
guidelines for talking publicly about
suicide with the hope of preventing
copycat deaths.
The problem has occurred to
Tracy Rodemeyer, who wrestled
with whether to continue her son’s
anti-bullying message.
“You don’t want to glorify this
and make it where the kids are going
to be copycats,” she said, describing
conversations she had with her son’s
peers while dropping off his no-longer-needed rented cello at school.
“All the kids I talked to at school,
I said: ‘Look at this, children. Would
you want your family to have to have
to go through this?’”
David McFarland, acting executive director and chief executive of
the Trevor Project, a help line for
LGBT teenagers who may be con-

templating suicide, said the focus
should be on educating families,
schools and communities.
Anti-bullying curriculums in
schools are not without controversy,
as in the case of Minnesota’s AnokaHennepin School District, whose
policy came under criticism after six
students committed suicide in less
than two years.
In July, five current and former
students sued, saying a policy requiring staff to remain neutral when
sexual orientation is discussed in the
classroom prevents teachers from effectively protecting kids perceived as
gay. School officials have defended
the policy as a reasonable way to balance the family ideologies seen in the
suburban Minneapolis district.
McFarland urged looking beyond the individual.
“There’s the personal story about
Jamey and his family, and our hearts
go out to them and that community,”
McFarland said, “but as a whole, this
is an issue facing youth across this
country, particularly LGBT youth.”
The boy’s mother said she does
want other children to know about
help lines like the Trevor Project
when contemplating suicide.
“The very second Jamey made
that decision and followed through
was the very second he found out it
was a mistake, but there’s no going
back,” she said she told her son’s
schoolmates. “I want to say I know
my boy’s at peace with himself, but
there are other ways” to handle life’s
problems.

With NY teen’s suicide comes spotlight, caution

Associated Press

BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — Taunted since grade school for hanging out
with girls, 14-year-old Jamey Rodemeyer told his parents things were finally getting better since high school
started. Meanwhile, on a blog his
parents didn’t know about, he posted
increasingly desperate notes ruminating on suicide, bullying, homophobia
and pop singer Lady Gaga.
A few days later, he hanged himself outside his home in suburban
Buffalo, quickly gaining a fame like
that described in one of his idol’s
songs. Activists, journalists and Gaga
herself seized on the suicide, decrying the loss of another promising life
to bullying. A cherubic school picture of him pervaded the Internet and
television, as well as a video he had
posted earlier about his experience.

structure capabilities” and
to “attract economy shifting
investment.”
According to Carey, this
program was originally developed for larger industrial
sites.
“The Job Ready Sites
was originally for the ‘mega
sites,’” Carey said. “This
has been a concern, and
the compromise in the past
has been that we used other
funds that can encourage
smaller industrial parks.”
Gallia County Commission Vice President Joe Foster inquired whether there
were program similar to the
Job Ready Sites Program
for rural areas.
“Other than the fact that
you’ve been very educated
in these matters and been
able to steer us in the right
direction, I can clearly remember that when this program was changed three or
four years ago, I can clearly
remember your testimony
taking up for the rural areas
and development opportunities there and I thought
maybe — we thought maybe
— there was other programs
that mirror [it],” Foster said
and alluded to a program
known as the Industrial Site
Improvement Fund.

Carey reported that,
while the Industrial Site Improvement Fund is a possibility, it is a program that has
not been utilized as it once
was due to empty industrial
type buildings across Ohio.
Furthermore, Carey reported that a meeting with the
Ohio Department of Development would be the best
way to start a plan to secure
funds for a second speculative building.
“I think probably the best
thing is, instead of trying to
figure out which program
to apply for, meet with the
department of development
and see what works,” Carey
said. “Things are changing
so much at the department
of development, really. …
[they are] trying to change
it so that the programs adapt
to the project instead of the
other way around and I think
that there’s a lot more flexibility than there has been in
the past. … They are in flux
but I know that we could
find a way to make it work.”
Foster further asked
whether Carey could get
help to open communication lines between the food
service companies in Jackson County — General
Mills and Bellisio’s — and

whether a portion of their
agricultural products could
be provided by local farmers.
“It’s a great idea to try to
track those suppliers and use
local goods,” Carey said. “I
know that one of the target
things in our region is food
processing, so, that’s something we probably need to
follow-up with them to keep
that chain going. I know
that there’s been efforts at
General Mills and Bellisio’s
as far as trying to get them
to use local suppliers and
regional suppliers. I know
that Canton has a program
that they are utilizing where
Canton is trying to get their
industries to use, when they
can, suppliers close by. I
know that General Mills and
Bellisio’s have both looked
at that program. So, I think
they are starting to think that
way and I think the timing is
good.”
Carey also reported that,
although industrial jobs
may be optimal, legislatures
are looking at agricultural
jobs as Ohio’s number one
industry.
“One thing we are talking about is agricultural as
Ohio’s number one industry
in economic development,”

with the pool, the time has come to acknowledge that it is becoming a safety hazard, and
needs to come down,” Gerlach said last Monday.
The ultimate demolition of the pool, said
to be the last above-ground public pool in the
state, has been discussed in general terms,
but no plans for its site have been. Council
and others have also discussed the possibility of seeking restoration funds because of the
pool’s historic significance, but Gerlach said
public grant agencies are reluctant to provide
funding for public pools, because many of
them, like Middleport’s, are in less demand
than they have been in the past.
In the last two years of of its operation, the
pool budget was supplemented by fundraising
efforts, and for at least one summer, the village had the benefit of summer youth employment workers paid through the Department of
Job and Family Services as lifeguards and
concessions staff.

as a social center. In recent years, however,
the pool was a drain on the village’s finances.
Repairs and maintenance, supplies and other
expenses, including the cost of staffing the
pool with management and lifeguards, made
the enterprise too expensive. Admission revenue, including the sale of discounted season
passes, did not meet expenses, and some summers the village spent general fund revenue to
keep the pool open.
Other summers in the recent past, the pool
was closed mid-season because of dwindling
attendance. When the pool opened over 50
years ago, private swimming pools were
almost unheard of; now, they are commonplace, and the demand for a public facility has
dwindled. In the meantime, the pool has suffered deterioration because of plumbing problems and other issues relating to its age. Prior
to opening in its last few years of operation,
the pool had to be repaired.

there are many great memories associated

“We see this meeting as one step in an

Two companies investing in the plant had
committed $50 million for the second phase
of the plant, but that commitment was linked
to acquiring the loan guarantee, said Jacobson, the spokesman. The original June deadline for that deal had been repeatedly delayed
and on Friday was extended until the end of
October.
Piketon Mayor Billy Spencer called Friday’s announcement “bad news” for his town
of roughly 2,300 people.
“We’re suffering down here. People are
hurting. … We need these jobs,” Spencer said
in a telephone interview. “We need this plant
down here. We really do.”

taining private financing and meeting other
benchmarks required for a successful loan
guarantee application.
“We are strongly committed to developing
effective, domestic nuclear enrichment capabilities and are looking at all options on a path
forward,” LaVera said.
President and CEO John Welch said in a
statement that USEC officials will continue
working with the Energy Department to get
the loan guarantee. The department rejected
the guarantee in 2009, and officials indicated
they didn’t believe the project was ready to
move forward.
Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown, a Democrat,
also voicing support for the project Thursday,
said it’s “important for our nation’s energy fu-

ate jobs, and provide additional resources
for our community and schools. We look
forward to working with the ODA and
ODNR to enhance this process.”
The Ohio Farm Bureau Federation is the
state’s largest general farm organization,
encompassing 87 county Farm Bureau organizations and over 214,000 member families statewide. Farm Bureau leaders are active on state and local action teams working
on legislation, regulations and issues that
impact agriculture and its relationship with
rural, suburban and urban communities.

have also expanded and
upgraded the laboratory
facilities. In the last five
years, faculty members
in the program have been
awarded nearly $2 million in competitive grant
funding. Students in the
program have opportunities to work on research
projects on campus, while
they also are able to take
part in internships in the
region. In the spring, for
example, Rio Grande was
awarded a grant from the
Pittsburgh
Conference
Memorial National Col-

lege Grant program, and
the funding from that
grant was used to purchase an atomic absorption spectrometer used for
trace-level detection of
heavy metals. Rio Grande
was one of only 12 of 59
projects from around the
country awarded funding
through this program. In
addition, an instrumentation laboratory for student
research on campus is currently being renovated and
should be completed by
early November. Students
who study chemistry at
Rio Grande are prepared

for jobs in a wide range
of fields, while they are
also prepared to continue

“short of suicide” he wasn’t
sure what he could say to
convince people that he’s
not running.
But after a whirlwind
week campaigning and
fundraising in Missouri,
Louisiana and California,
which included a speech
on Tuesday night at the
Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in which the
characteristically
blunt
Christie repeatedly criticized Obama, he started to
dial back his denials — he
stopped saying he wasn’t
ready to be president and
started referring reporters
to previous statements.
When asked about running, Christie urged a capacity audience gathered
at the Reagan Library to
look at the website Politico, which had pieced
together a long string of
video clips of him saying
he’s not a candidate for the
White House.
“Those are the answers,”
he told the crowd.
Christie later said he was
flattered by suggestions that
he should run in 2012 but
said the decision “has to reside inside me.”
“And so, my answer to
you is just this: I thank you
for what you are saying, and
I take it in and I’m listening
to every word of it and feeling it to,” he added.
Later in the week, he dialed up his criticism of the
president.
“If you’re looking for
leadership in America,
you’re not going to find it in
the Oval Office,” Christie
said at a rally in Louisiana
before a fundraiser.

Before the speech at the
Reagan library, Christie’s
brother, Todd, told The
Star-Ledger of Newark
that there was no change in
Christie’s decision to run.
“I’m sure that he’s not
going to run,” Todd Christie said. “If he’s lying to me,
I’ll be as stunned as I’ve
ever been in my life.”
But after the speech,
Christie’s
inner
circle
clamped down and Christie
didn’t make any other public comments about it.
A short primary season
could make it tough to organize a campaign in time,
but Christie has been making inroads with big money
donors and media moguls.
He was the keynote
speaker this summer for a
retreat held by the billionaire oil tycoon brothers
David and Charles Koch.
This week he held a fundraiser at the California
home of Meg Whitman,
the new CEO of HewlettPackard Co., who lost last
year to Democrat Jerry
Brown in the governor’s
race. Last summer, Christie met with the head of
Fox News, Roger Ailes at
Ailes’ home.
A large part of Christie’s hesitation to run has
been his family. He has four
children, ages 18 to 8. At a
Sept. 22 event with Indiana
Gov. Mitch Daniels, who
was also courted but said no
to a 2012 bid, Christie said
it just wasn’t the right time
for him.
“It got to be something
that you and your family really believes is not only the
right thing to do, but I think

what you must do at that
time in your life both for
you and for your country,”
Christie, 49, said. “And for
me, the answer to that is
that it isn’t.”
But he and his wife
have been reassured recently that White House
life isn’t that bad. Months
ago, former first lady Barbara Bush made a call to
Christie’s wife, Mary Pat,
to encourage her to think
about a presidential campaign, and Nancy Reagan
also encouraged Christie
when they sat together at
the library.
The week-long trip was
a clear success for him, advisers said. It was also long
planned. Nancy Reagan
sent out an invitation for
him to speak at the library
this winter, and Christie
made a similar fundraising
trip last year around election season.
Christie’s
longtime
friend, former law partner
and adviser Bill Palatucci
traveled to California with
the governor and said there
was no doubt it was inspiring.
“Many, many wellwishers who know the
governor’s record and are
congratulating him on his
record in office,” Palatucci
said after their stops in St.
Louis. “Everyone from hotel staff, airport workers
and those who attend the
events responding that they
know him and like his message.”

Christie soon to decide on primary run

TRENTON, N.J. (AP)
— New Jersey Gov. Chris
Christie is reconsidering his
decision to stay out of the
race for the White House
in 2012 and is expected to
make a decision soon, according to several people
close to the governor with
knowledge of his thinking.
Christie has long said
he won’t run in 2012. But
those close to the first-term
governor, who spoke only
on condition of anonymity
because they were not authorized to speak publicly
on the issue, say he is rethinking his hard stance.
A decision will have to
come fast. Filing deadlines
in primary states are weeks
away.
Calls have been intensi-

mances at debates, Perry
now, too, seems vulnerable
to getting picked off.
Unlike Perry, Christie is
most at home behind a podium and seems to relish
debate — most often with
the press corps.
New Jersey’s pugnacious governor has been
asked about his presidential
aspirations practically since
taking the oath of office in
January 2010. But until this
week, he has swatted down
the idea repeatedly, consistently and colorfully.
He said he wouldn’t run
because he wasn’t ready, because his wife wouldn’t let
him and because “I’m not
crazy, that’s why.” A more
famous reply came about a
year ago when he said that

fying from top GOP donors
and party elders for Christie
to jump into the race. President Barack Obama’s weak
approval ratings and a Republican field that has been
struggling to put forward a
clear front-runner are also
creating an opening for
Christie.
Christie may think twice
about moving forward,
however. GOP latecomers
have jumped in to see a big
initial splash, only to tread
water.

Bachmann

Romney only to be pushed
back when Texas Gov. Rick

NEW YORK (AP) — The worst quarter
for the stock market since the financial crisis
ended on another down note.
Stocks fell broadly Friday on fresh signs
that Europe’s debt problems and the U.S.
economy continue to languish. Makers of
raw materials, industrial companies and
banks — which would have the most to lose
if the economy turns sour — had the biggest
losses.
The Dow Jones industrial average
dropped 240.60 points, or 2.2 percent, to
10,913.38. Hewlett-Packard Co. fell the
most of the 30 stocks in the average, 5.6 percent. Aluminum maker Alcoa Inc. was close
behind with a 4.9 percent decline. JPMorgan
Chase &amp; Co. fell 4.1 percent.
The broader S&amp;P 500 index shed 28.98,
or 2.5 percent, to 1,131.42. All 10 industry
groups in the S&amp;P 500 index fell.
The Nasdaq composite index fell 65.36,
or 2.6 percent, to 2,415.40.
Markets have been wracked this summer
by growing fears about a possible default
by Greece and the increasing likelihood of
a global recession. Uneven economic data
have touched off sudden bouts of buying and
selling. The Dow, S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq each
lost more than 12 percent this quarter, the first
time that’s happened since the financial crisis
crested at the end of 2008.
The S&amp;P 500, the benchmark for most
U.S. stock mutual funds, has lost 14.3 percent since July 1, the start of the third quarter. That’s the biggest quarterly drop since

the three months ended Dec. 31, 2008, when
global financial markets seized up. Excluding that period, the S&amp;P has not dropped that
much in a quarter for nine years. The Dow
dropped 1,500.96 points, or 12.1 percent,
over the same time frame.
“The market has really seen some damage this quarter,” said Mike Hurley, portfolio
manager of Highland Trend Following Fund.
The weakness appears to be the start of a
longer decline, Hurley said, because bonds
are increasing in value and interest rates are
low. Traders also are selling commodities
such as oil, which would lose value in an economic downturn.
“Lower interest rates and commodity prices are definitely an indication that the
market thinks economic activity is going to
be weak,” Hurley said.
Stocks in France, England and Germany
fell on the latest signs of discord among European leaders. Germany and France proposed managing the region’s shared currency
through meetings of national leaders, rather
than by centralized institutions. The head of
the European Commission balked at the proposal.
Persistent squabbling over financial
policy has been a major obstacle to achieving a lasting solution to Europe’s debt crisis.
France and Germany, the currency union’s
strongest economies, want countries to coordinate their spending and borrowing more
closely. Other countries see that as a threat to
their sovereignty.

Rebels flatten Fed Hock, 34-0
By Bryan Walters

bwalters@mydailytribune.com

MERCERVILLE, Ohio —Now that’s how
you celebrate Homecoming.
The South Gallia football team limited visiting Federal Hocking to just 131 yards of total
offense and forced four turnovers en route to a
commanding 34-0 victory in a Week 6 Tri-Valley
Conference Hocking Division matchup in Gallia
County.
The Rebels (5-1, 4-1 TVC Hocking) scored
14 points off takeaways and finished plus-two in
turnover differential while churning out 283 total
yards of offense, with 226 of those yards coming
in the first half. That sizable advantage allowed
SGHS to jump out to a 28-0 halftime lead, which
more than held up as the hosts claimed their third
straight win of the season.
The Lancers (2-4, 2-2), who had their twogame win streak snapped, mustered only three
first downs and 63 yards of total offense in the
first half. The guests also had the lone first half
giveaway and committed four fumbles overall in
the setback.
South Gallia started slow in its Homecoming
contest, as each of its first two drives resulted
in a loss of downs. The third, offensive drive,
however, proved to be the charm — as the hosts
marched 54 yards in five plays to take an early
6-0 advantage.
Senior John Johnson scrambled 34 yards to
paydirt with just 32 seconds left in the opening
canto, capping 1:40 drive that gave the hosts an
early one-possession lead.
Fed Hock was forced to punt on its ensuing
possession, which gave the hosts the ball at their
own 47 with 11:15 remaining in the first half.
Six plays and 53 yards later, the Rebels owned

Marauders fall
to Athens, 56-9

THE PLAINS, Ohio —
Athens took advantage of
their speed and Meigs mistakes to roll to a 56-9 win
over the Marauders in the
TVC opener Friday night at
Athens High School. Athens with the win is now 6-0,
Meigs drops to 4-2, with
their first loss since the season opener.
Athens rolled up 527
total yards against the Marauders led by DeVon Sharp.
The senior speedster carried
16 times for 163 yards, and
three rushing touchdowns.
For good measure he threw
in a 62 yard punt return for
a score and was one for one
passing for 19 yards.
Three of the Bulldogs
scoring drives were started
in Meigs territory. The longest scoring drive of the
night for Athens was eight
plays. Twice the Bulldogs
scored back to back touchdowns within a minute of
each other.
Sharp gave the Bulldogs
the early lead with a five
yard run and his punt return
of 62 yards the last coming
at the 7:11 mark of the first
period.
But Meigs came back
to pull within 14-7 when
Charlie Barrett scored from
a yard out, capping off a 10
play 66 yard drive. His kick
for the extra points made it
14-7 Athens with 2:48 left in
the period.
Chris Russell gave the
Bulldogs good field position
with a 20 yard return of the
ensuing kickoff to the Athens 42. Skylar Schwarzel
ran twice for 22 yard and
quarterback Josh Skinner
added a 28 yard jaunt to the
Meigs four. Skinner then
hooked up with Josh Maxon
who tapped one foot down
in the end zone for the score.
Sharp added runs of 46
and 35 for Athens scores
in the second period as the
Bulldogs took a 34-7 lead
into the locker room at the
half.
Skinner added a three
yard run and Freddy Stalder
a seven yard score in the
third period to increase the
lead to 48-7.
Meigs scored a safety
with 43 seconds left in the
third period, a high snap to
the quarterback while in the
shot gun formation rolled
into the end zone, Michael
Germano scooped up the
loose ball but Chris Jones
dropped him for a safety.
Germano closed out the
scoring with a 58 yard run

Eagles beat Belpre on Homecoming, 20-0
By Sarah Hawley

shawley@mydailytribune.com

TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio —
Homecoming is most often a time of
celebration and Friday evening was no
different at Eastern High School.
The Eagles hosted Belpre in the
annual Homecoming Game at East
Shade River Stadium, still looking for
their first home win of the season.
The two TVC Hocking teams entered the game with one win combined — Eastern’s week two road victory over Miller — through five weeks
of the season.

By the end of the evening, it was
the host Green and White Eagles who
would ring the victory bell for the first
time this season.
It looked as though Eastern was in
for a big night from the opening seconds of the game. Freshman Triston
Goodnite took the opening kick off 78
yards in 11 seconds for the first score
of the game. The extra point attempt
failed, leaving the Eagles with a 6-0
lead at the 11:49 mark of the first quarter.
Belpre started its first drive with
good field position on its own 40 yard
line. Three plays into the drive, the
Golden Eagles fumbled the ball. East-

ern’s Roger Bunce recovered the loose
ball to give Eastern possession.
With the football slippery from a
heavy rain in the first quarter, Eastern
fumbled the ball two plays later, giving the ball back to Belpre. Belpre’s
Justin Smith recovered the ball near
midfield.
Each team’s next possession ended
in a punt.
Belpre took possession again at
the 6:05 mark of the first quarter. The
Golden Eagles moved the ball slowly
down field, running the ball on all of
their plays. Belpre attempted a field

and a touchdown in addition
to tossing a pair of scoring
passes to lead the Wahama
White Falcons to its fifth
straight win following a 6720 conquest over Southern
at Roger Lee Adams Memorial Field Friday evening.
Gibbs put the Bend Area
Falcons in front with an 11
yard touchdown run early
in the opening period before passing for two more
first quarter scores as Wahama built a 29-0 lead in
the contests opening period.
Anthony Grimm added three
touchdowns and 108 yards
rushing on the night for the
Mason County eleven as
Wahama improved to 5-0

Tristen Wolfe was the

three fourth quarter touchdowns. Ryan Taylor hauled

and two more touchdowns
for Southern. The Tornadoes
dropped to 1-5 following the
setback while falling to 1-3
inside TVC league play.
Wahama had eight different players score touchdowns with four of those
scores coming in the first
quarter. Gibbs opened things
with an 11 yard run before
passing 28 yards to Matthew
Stewart for the Falcons’ second score. Anthony Grimm’s

Big Blacks hold off Wayne, 16-14
By Andy Layton

Sports Correspondent

POINT
PLEASANT,
W.Va. — To say Friday
night’s ending was exciting would be an understatement.
The Big Blacks overcame a late Wayne drive
to notch a 16-14 Cardinal
Conference victory and
move to 5-0 on the young
season.
“What a great high
school football game” said
Head Coach David Darst.
“Every time that the Big
Blacks and the Pioneers
have hooked up for the last
several years it has been a
great ball game and tonight
was no exception”.
The Big Blacks got a
huge rushing performance
from junior fullback Tylun
Campbell who rushed for
a career high 161 yards on
19 carries. Senior Anthony
Darst also chipped in with
69 yards on 13 carries.
Once again however, it
was the strong Big Blacks
defense that held through
adversity and made big
stops when the time came,
including three interceptions and a goal-line stand
in the final seconds to seal
the victory.
Wayne received the
opening kickoff and capped
off a ten play, five-plus
minute drive with a Brandon Spurlock 10 yard dash
to the end-zone. The twopoint conversion run by
Spurlock was also good and
Wayne was up 8-0 early on
the home team.
The Big Blacks an-

swered back quickly with
a big run from Campbell
on the second play of the
game to set Point up inside
the five yard line early. The
next play was a Jerrod Long
plunge into the end-zone for
six points. The Josh Parsons
extra point was good and it
was 8-7 with 7 minutes left
in the first quarter.
Wayne started the next
drive off near midfield and
had a lengthy drive going
before senior safety Layne
Thompson intercepted Tyler Adkins in the end-zone
to kill the drive.
Both teams would trade
their next two possessions
before the Big Blacks were
able to cash in on their next
score. Tylun Campbell
plunged through from three
yards out to cap an 11 play
85 yard drive to give Point
a 13-8 edge with 5:33 left in
the half. The Parsons extra
point attempt was blocked
by the Pioneers. The first
half would eventually end
at that score.
After a Point Pleasant
three and out to end the second half, the Pioneers first
possession of the half was
ended by an Andrew Williamson sack on third down
followed by a big play
from Conner Templeton on
fourth down.
Point’s second possession drove deep into Wayne
territory and featured a
big third down reception
from senior tight end Jason
Stouffer but the field goal
attempt from Josh Parsons
would be no good and the
score stayed 13-8.
Wayne would strike

quick on the next possession as Wayne running back
Brandon Spurlock dashed
down the sideline 75 yards
for the score. The two-point
conversion was stopped by
Andrew Williamson and the
score was 14-13 Pioneers
with 1:47 left in the third
quarter.
After a Point Pleasant
interception and a penalty,
the Pioneers started the
drive off inside the Point 20
yard line but it was Brandon
Toler who came up with a
big interception to stop the
drive inside the ten yard
line.
Point would use the next
drive to set up the eventual
game winning score as a ten
play drive ended with a Jerrod Long 30 yard field goal
with 7:49 left in the ball
game.
The final 7:49 of the
game were, well, interesting to say the least. Point
would have several chances
to notch first downs to put
the game away but Wayne
had one more possession
with 30 seconds left. Two
pass plays later, Wayne was
at the Point Pleasant one
yard line with just a matter
of seconds left. After a penalty, no gain, and a spiked
ball, Wayne was given one
more play with no time on
the clock from the half yard
line but it was the defense
that stood strong one more
time and stopped Adkins in
the backfield to clinch the
big home win.
Strong defensive performances on the night came
from Layne Thompson, Jason Stouffer, Josh Hereford,

Wayne.

Andrew Williamson, and
Conner Templeton. Thompson had two interceptions
on the night and Brandon
Toler also added one interception.
“It was great to get a conference win at home against
a very good football team.
I think everyone knows that
when they attend a Point
Pleasant-Wayne
football
game that they are going
to get their money’s worth
and they definitely did tonight. I thought our defense
made some big plays when
we really needed them and
we got a great performance

from our fullback”.
The Big Blacks will
travel to Poca to take on the
Dots next Friday night at
7:30.

Raiders fall at Fairland, 31-7
By Bryan Walters

bwalters@mydailytribune.com

PROCTORVILLE, Ohio — The River Valley football team dropped its fifth
straight decision of the season during a
31-7 setback to host Fairland in the Ohio
Valley Conference opener for both clubs
Friday night in Lawrence County.
The visiting Raiders (1-5, 0-1 OVC)
trailed 15-0 at the half and were down 22-0
before scoring their first offensive touchdown in over eight quarters late in the third
period — allowing the guests to pull back
to within 15 points entering the fourth quarter.
The Dragons (2-4, 1-0) , however, added
a touchdown and a safety down the stretch,
allowing the hosts to snap a two-game losing streak while picking up the 24-point
triumph.
Fairland churned out 391 yards of total
offense, including a whopping 328 rushing
yards on 55 carries — an average of just
under six yards per try. The Raiders, who
were minus-2 in turnover differential, managed just 165 total yards offensively — 120
of which came through the air.

FHS wasted little time getting on the
scoreboard, as the hosts took the opening
kickoff and march 65 yards in seven plays
for an early 7-0 advantage. Nathan Campbell scampered 14 yards to paydirt with
9:38 left in the first for the early one-possession lead.
The Dragons improved their edge to
15-0 with just 32 seconds left in the first
canto, as Evan Maddox scored on a 21-yard
run to cap a nine-play, 75-yard drive. The
score was 15-0 after one quarter of play
and remained that way headed into the intermission.
After holding RVHS on the opening
drive of the second half, Fairland went 48
yards to paydirt in four plays to take a 22-0
cushion. Eric Riley plunged in from a yard
out with 5:29 remaining in the third stanza.
The Raiders quickly responded with a
four-play, 63-yard drive that came to fruition with 4:16 left in the third, as Austin
Whobrey found Ethan Dovenbarger with
an 18-yard scoring pass that made it a 22-7
affair. That score held up after three quarters of play.
Campbell added his second scoring run
of the evening with 9:23 left in regulation,
rumbling in from four yards out for a 29-7

edge. Campbell’s TD run capped a sevenplay, 73-yard scoring drive for the hosts.
Fairland added a safety with 48 seconds
left in regulation when Dustin Barton tackled a RVHS runner in the endzone, giving
the hosts its biggest lead of the night at 317.
Fairland posted a 21-8 advantage in first
downs and forced three turnovers, including two fumble recoveries and an interception. River Valley had one takeaway in the
setback. FHS was flagged seven times for
65 yards, while the Raiders had five penalties for 30 yards.
Patrick Williams led RVHS with 41
rushing yards on 18 carries, followed by
Austin Whobrey with 19 yards on 10 totes.
Whobrey was also 9-of-19 passing for 120
yards, throwing one TD and one interception. Dovenbarger led the wideouts with
four catches for 78 yards and a score.
Eric Riley paced Fairland with 108 rushing yards on 13 carries, followed by Nathan
Campbell with 90 yards on 14 tries. Kyle
Sowards was 3-of-8 passing for 63 yards,
while Blaine Fuller led FHS with one catch
for 44 yards. Riley also hauled in two passes for 19 yards.

just two plays later. Jesse
Fisher ripped the ball away
from FHHS ball carrier
Kyle Jackson and rumbled
44 yards to paydirt — giving the hosts a 22-0 cushion
with 7:46 left before half.
Ethan Spurlock added
the final first half score
with 37 seconds remaining,
scoring on a six-yard run
that gave the Rebels a commanding 28-0 intermission
advantage. Spurlock’s score
capped an 11-play, 54-yard
drive that lasted 2:31.
Federal Hocking had
possession to start the second half, but South Gallia
came away with a turnover on the third play from
scrimmage deep inside
FHHS territory. Five plays
and 34 yards later, the Rebels ended the scoring when
Jacob White capped a 2:30
drive with an eight-yard TD
run. White’s score at the
8:15 mark of the third gave
the hosts a 34-0 lead.

fall to Athens
By Bryan Walters

bwalters@mydailytribune.com

ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio — The Meigs volleyball team
had little luck with visiting Athens Thursday night during a 25-9, 25-7, 25-21 setback in a Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division matchup at Larry R. Morrison Gymnasium.
The Lady Marauders (6-8, 1-5 TVC Ohio) were held to
just 16 points total in games one and two, but the hosts put
up more of fight against the Lady Bulldogs in the final game
before ultimately falling by four points.
Meigs recorded team totals of 16 kills, 14 assists and
four blocks in the setback, and the hosts also had zero aces
and 16 service points overall.
Brook Andrus led MHS with seven service points, followed by Tori Wolfe with five and Mercadies George with
three points. Tanisha McKinney also had one service point
in the loss.
George led the net attack with six kills, followed by
three apiece from Emily Kinnan and Olivia Cremeans. Andrus and Marlee Hoffman added two kills and one kill, respectively.
George, Hoffman, Andrus and Keana Robinson each recorded a block in the setback. Emalee Glass led the Meigs
passing attack with 12 assists, followed by Cremeans with
two assists.
Athens claimed a season sweep with a 25-15, 25-16, 2514 victory in the first contest at McAfee Gymnasium back
on Sept. 8.
Meigs returns to action Monday when it hosts Jackson in
a non-conference matchup at 6 p.m.

goal on a fourth down play
from the seven yard line.
The kick failed, but their
was a flag on the play. Eastern declined the penalty and
took possession at its own
seven yard line.
Eastern was forced to
punt the ball on the resulting possession. Belpre’s
Tyler Martin blocked the
Carnahan punt, giving Belpre the ball at the Eastern 31
yard line.
Faced with a fourth
and 22 at the Eastern 23
yard line, Belpre came up
five yards short of the first
down, sending the ball back
to Eastern.
The Eagles fumbled the
ball on the second play of
the drive, with Belpre’s D.J.
Leftwich recovering the
ball.
Belpre moved the ball
into Eastern territory near
the end of the second quarter, but their scoring opportunity was ended when the
Eagles’ Tyler Barber intercepted the Belpre pass to
end the half.
Following the halftime
homecoming
festivities,
the Golden Eagles took the
opening kickoff of the second half. Belpre fumbled
the ball twice on the drive,
including a bad snap on
the punt attempt. Belpre
recovered both of its own
fumbles, but turned the ball
over on downs.
Eastern took advantage
of the excellant starting position — the Belpre 29 yard
line — and scored seven
plays later. Carnahan ran
the ball in from the six yard
line for the second touchdown of the game. Carnahan added the extra point
kick, taking the 13-0 lead.
Belpre’s next drive ended with a fumble which
was recovered by Eastern’s
Chase Cook at the Belpre
32 yard line. Eastern failed
to gain a first down on the
possession, punting the ball
back to the Golden Eagles.
Belpre turned the ball
over on its next possession
also, with Zach Scowden
intercepting the Belpre
pass.
The next possession for
each team resulted in a punt.
Eastern started its next
drive at the Belpre 37 yard
line. On a first and 27, the
Eastern pass was intercepted by Belpre’s Manny Tullius. Belpre could not take
advantage of the Eastern

The Eagles were forced
to punt the ball back to Belpre with 3:32 remaining
in the game, but a roughing the kicker penalty gave
Eastern a first down. Four
plays later Eastern scored
its final touchdown of the
game. Chase Cook ran the
ball in from the six yard
line, with Carnahan adding
the extra point kick.
Eastern won by the final
of 20-0.
While the defense held
Belpre scoreless, the Eastern offense was also held
mostly in check. The Eagles
gain just 106 yards of offense in the game, while
Belpre tallied 146 yards of
offense.
Ethan Nottingham led
Eatern with 49 yards on the
ground. Carnahan was 1-71 passing in the game for
seven yards, with the lone
completion going to Marshall Aanestad.
Belpre was led by Nate
Teeters with 17 carries for
49 yards. Tullius was 4-102 for 43 yards though the
air.

Eastern, which is currently 10th
in the Division IV coaches poll, also
claimed a straight-game win over
the Lady Falcons (3-13, 2-8) back
on Sept. 13 following a 25-7, 25-11,

South Gallia golfers end season at sectionals
By Sarah Hawley

FRIENDSHIP, Ohio — The
South Gallia golf team saw their
season come to an end on Wednesday in the Division III Sectional
Golf Tournament at Shawnee
Golf Course.

Devils
from Page B1

rainy, dreary weather and
80-mile trip — the Chiefs
were, as Hank Williams Jr.
might say, ready for some
football.
In their first five losses
of the season, the Chiefs
only played one good first
half and were pretty much
out of the running by the
time the second half rolled
around.
Not Friday night.
“We came out and took
it to them,” Wolfe said. “We
scored quickly, but our defense really took it to them
in the first half.”
McCarty rushed for 207
yards on 30 carries for the
Chieftains, who only had
four skill-position players
touch the ball on offense
all night. He broke a 57yard touchdown run up the
middle with 6:03 remaining
in the first half to put the
Chiefs ahead.
It was a precarious lead
the Purple &amp; White defense
protected the rest of the way
against a Gallipolis team
that very easily could have
entered the game 5-0. The
Blue Devils (3-3, 0-1) had
lost by five points to Athens
and by six points to Ironton.
But Friday night, Gallipolis lost three fumbles
and several times committed key mistakes or penalties that, along with the Logan defense, kept them off
the scoreboard except for

South Gallia’s David Michael
and Gus Slone just missed out on
a trip to the district tournament by
one and four strokes, respectively.
The Rebels placed seventh as
a team with a final tally of 398.
West Union took first place with
a team total of 331. Also advancing to the district tournament

a Brandon Taylor 19-yard
field goal at the end of the
first half.
“We put ourselves in
position to get on track,
but whether it was a mental mistake or a physical
mistake from a penalty to
a turnover… just uncharacteristic things from this
group of kids,” Gallipolis
coach Mike Eddy said. “We
haven’t played that way all
year long. I think you have
to credit Logan’s emotional
play. Coach (Alex) Penrod,
being a (Logan) historian
the way he is, (the Chiefs)
haven’t gone 0-6 in 82
years, so you know coming in they’re going to bring
their best.”
Penrod, the Blue Devils’
defensive coordinator, is a
Logan High School graduate and a former Chieftain
football player.
“They’re not an 0-5
team,” Eddy said of the
Chieftains. “They just were
in that situation (with a
tough schedule). They’re a
team that has good athletes.
“We kind of played their
game,” he continued. “That
seemed to be their Achilles’
heel all year: they would get
in a situation to score, or be
ready to put a drive together, and they would make a
mistake. For whatever reason, the roles were reversed
tonight.”
Five times the Blue Devils drove into Logan territory in the first half, only
to turn the ball over twice
on downs. They also had
to deal with Chieftain defensive end Caleb Branson,

Blue Devils fall
to Jackson, 3-1

JACKSON, Ohio —The
streak is over.
The Gallia Academy
soccer team had won four
straight decisions over Jackson until Thursday night, as
the host Ironmen posted a
3-1 victory over GAHS in
a Southeastern Ohio Athletic League matchup in the
Apple City.
The visiting Blue Devils (0-7-0, 0-4-0 SEOAL)
remained winless on the
season while Jackson (4-51, 3-1-1) picked up its second straight win while remaining in second place in
league play.
The Blue Devils were
outshot 26-6 overall in the
contest, including a 17-2
edge in the first half, but
GAHS still managed to
hang around with the Ironmen through 40 scoreless
minutes of play.
JHS, however, made
good on its 17-4 shots on
goal edge in the second half,
producing three consecutive
goals after intermission to
take a commanding 3-0 advantage with 14 minutes left
in regulation. GAHS added

its lone goal of the night
with five minutes remaining
to round out the two-goal
decision.
After a scoreless first
half, Jackson finally opened
the scoring in the 44th minute when Evan Crabtree
headed in a corner kick pass
from Clay Staker for a 1-0
advantage.
Byron Lord then headed
in a goal on another corner
kick pass from Staker in
the 53rd minute, allowing
the hosts to open up a 2-nil
edge. Hans Brummerstedt
added an unassisted goal in
the 67th minute to give JHS
a sizable 3-0 lead with just
13:57 remaining in the half.
Gallia Academy’s lone
goal came from Jared Lester
in the 76th minute, scoring
on an unassisted attempt
with 4:43 left in regulation.
Jackson had a 6-0 advantage in corner kicks, while
GAHS claimed a 10-6 edge
in fouls.
Keeper Nathan Wiseman
made eight saves for the
Blue Devils, while Chandler Fout came up with three
stops in net for the Ironmen.
Gallia Academy returns
to action Saturday when it

backfield most of the night.
“We changed our defense up this week when
Michael (Simpson) went
down (with a broken collarbone in last week’s game
at Nelsonville-York) and
made some adjustments,”
Wolfe revealed. “We felt
we had more linebackers
than anything else and put
four linebackers out there
instead of three.”
Logan even had 4-4 and
6-2 formations.
“I don’t know how many
tackles for loss our defense
had tonight… it had to be
eight or 10,” he added. “Our
defensive line had a great
game.”
Late in the first half, the
Chiefs gave the Blue Devils an opening by shanking
a 6-yard punt deep in their
own territory, giving GAHS
the ball on the Logan 31
with 72 seconds left.
Two first downs later,
Gallipolis was at the Logan
10 and quarterback Wade
Jarrell connected with Taylor on a swing pass. Taylor was tackled inside the
2-yard line with the clock
running out and Gallipolis
called its last timeout with
5.2 seconds left.
The Blue Devils attempted a quick pass that
Branson batted down, forcing Gallipolis to settle for
Taylor’s 19-yard field goal
as time expired.

were points for us,” Eddy
said. “We had no time-outs

you run the ball in that situation you’re not going to
get any opportunities for
points. You have to throw
a pass… and the wide receiver was open, but their
end (Branson) got up the
field and knocked the pass
down. We were at least able
to come away with some
points.
“One score after that
and we’re in the lead.
That’s how I looked at it,”
he added. “We had to get
something on the board.
The points themselves were
more important than how
we got them. We’d had opportunities, and there was
no reason to believe we
wouldn’t get another.”
“At halftime everybody
felt we needed to line up
and let Cory do what he
does,” Wolfe said. “I think
it was pretty obvious in the
second half. I told Cory at
halftime to just run the ball,
look for the hole and not
put pressure on himself. It
wasn’t anything fancy… I
must have called the same
play 25 or 30 times.”
McCarty accounted for
21 of the Chiefs’ 27 running
plays in the second half.
Logan couldn’t get its passing game going, completing
just 1-of-6 passes in the second half and 2-of-13 for the
game.
The Logan defense again
came through several times
in the second half, stopping
Gallipolis on fourth-and-1

were recovered by Garrett
Tutwiler and Sean Wotring.
Wotring’s play was the
biggest. Early in the fourth
quarter, Jarrell hit Taylor
with a swing pass in the
right flat and Taylor found
some running room down
the sideline and crossed
midfield. But Wotring
stripped the ball from Taylor, it popped into the air,
and Wotring caught it for a
huge turnover.
“You could see as the
game went on (the Logan
players) were playing with
energy, with confidence and
believing in themselves,”
Wolfe said. “There was a
lot of enthusiasm on the
sidelines. When Wotring
got that strip, you just felt
(the monkey) was off their
shoulders and we were winning this game. That was a
huge play.”
And that, for all intents
and purposes, was it for the
Blue Devils. After turning
the ball over on downs on
their own 21-yard line —
defensive back Josh Fridley
got a hand on a deep pass
that bounced out of Cody
Russell’s hands — McCarty
broke a game-clinching 21yard TD run off right tackle.
Wolfe said the Chiefs
took a different approach to
pregame preparation Friday
night.
As sistant coach “Pat
(Walsh) came to me on
Thursday (and said) ‘when
we go in after pre-game, before you talk and we come
out, they get their pads on,
they sit down, it’s dead silent in here, and they do

nothing but think about the
game and what they have to
do to help us win’ ,” Wolfe
revealed. “So we made
some pre-game adjustments
to get our minds right. I
think we came out with a
better attitude to start the
game tonight.”
Make no mistake about
it, there was a huge exhale
of relief from everyone in
Chieftain Nation — players, coaches and fans alike
— Friday night in Gallia
County.

Intersection of
554 and 160

Seth Jarrell shot a 99 for the Rebels, followed by Ethan Swain with

Individuals advancing to the

POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — So
nice, they did it twice.
For the second time this season,
the Point Pleasant boys soccer team
posted a 3-0 victory over visiting
Sissonville Thursday night in a Cardinal Conference matchup at Ohio
Valley Bank Track and Field in Mason County.
The Black Knights (8-6-0)
claimed a season sweep of the Indians, who lost a 3-0 decision to Point
back on August 30th in Sissonville.
PPHS, which is currently ranked 8th
in Class AA, also won its sixth match

in its last seven outings.
The hosts outshot the Indians by
a 17-11 overall margin, which included an 11-1 advantagein shots on
goal. Point also claimed a 4-3 edge
in corner kicks while posting its sixth
shutout win of the season.
Point Pleasant wasted little time
getting on the scoreboard, as Steven
Porter deflected a shot off of a Sissonville player and into the back of
the net, giving the hosts a 1-0 edge in
the second minute of play. The goal
came off of a corner kick from Gustavo Roedell at the 38:29 mark of the
first half.
The score remained that way
through the intermission, but PPHS
again wasted little time getting on

the board in the second half. Tommy
Foust netted a pass from Porter in the
41st minute for a 2-0 cushion just 22
seconds in.
Roedell capped the scoring in the
72nd minute after netting a break attempt from 22 yards out for a the 3-0
decision. Porter started the break and
gained an assist on the goal.
Brady Reymond made one save
in goal to earn the shutout victory,
while Sissonville keepers came up
with eight stops.
Point Pleasant returns to action
Saturday when it hosts Gallia Academy in a non-conference matchup at
7 p.m. The JV contest will start at 5
p.m.

CONCEPTIS SUDOKU
by Dave Green

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday,
Oct. 3, 2011:
You swing back and forth from
extrovert to introvert this year. You
enjoy carousing and being social, but
you also honor your priorities. For the
first time in many years, you tackle
a personal or domestic matter headon. This attitude can and will make
all the difference in your life. Others
will understand how very determined
you are. If you are single, you cannot
deny your love of romance. Honor
that passion and watch everything
else tumble into place. Take your time
before committing. If you are attached,
your sweetie will work with you to
resolve an issue, as long as you keep
expressing your caring. CAPRICORN
understands you better than you think.
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)
++++ If you don’t take the lead,
no one else will. You might have little
choice. As you can be determined and
fiery, it might be best if you lead the
charge anyway. Opportunities head in
where you least expect them. Tonight:
A must appearance.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
+++++ If you have an unexpected but unwanted insight, you need
to detach and probably head down a
new path. This new road could involve
being less reactive or actually experiencing something totally new. Though
you are a conservative sign, you will
be able to let go. Tonight: Follow the
music.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
+++++ Relate directly to others with a willingness to part from the
past. An opportunity will present itself
if you follow your intuition. Honor a
need for more space and centering.
Then you will blossom and reveal your
complete self. Tonight: Dinner for two.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
+++++ You can flow naturally if
you go with your moods. Focus on the
long-term implications of a situation.
You want your relationships — both
professional and personal — to succeed. Don’t lose sight of this goal.
Tonight: Where the action is.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
++++ Before you know it, you
could be entrenched in a project.
News that heads in your direction
could be a shock, but somehow it
doesn’t distract you. Revise your plans
and don’t worry about others’ judg-

Ad goes here

HOROSCOPE

ments. Tonight: Clear your desk, then
choose something relaxing.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
+++++ No matter what situation
you find yourself in, your creativity
flourishes. Your imagination seems
relentless. Touch base with a child or
loved one. Through detachment, you’ll
find a solution. Tonight: Keep it light.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
++++ If you can make your work
environment more agreeable, then
do. Allow greater give-and-take within
your immediate surroundings. You
cannot control anyone anyway. If you
feel more productive at home, work
from there. Tonight: Make a clear
separation between work and your
personal life.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
+++++ Reach out to others. The
only mistake you can make is to stand
on ceremony. Establish boundaries
in a caring manner. Others express a
lot of concern about what is happening around you. Tonight: Let the good
times in.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
+++ Take a hard look at your
budget. This accounting might not
involve your personal funds, but
someone else’s or perhaps at work.
You might be surprised by what you
see and a decision you make. You are
on the right track. Tonight: Squeeze in
some exercise.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
+++++ Your strength and endurance might be needed to carry a job
or project to the finish line. Your ability
to tap into your creativity encourages
others to do the same. Welcome a
brainstorming session. Tonight: Don’t
push beyond a certain level.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
+++ If you look around, you
might decide to maintain a low profile.
Whatever the reason, you sense that
something is off. You are changing
profoundly within. A domestic matter or real estate investment needs
checking out. Tonight: Stay anchored.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
+++++ Schedule meetings and
return calls. Your people skills make
all the difference in what occurs. A discussion fills in a lot of the gaps. New
ideas abound. What might have held
some promise now becomes unusually dynamic. Tonight: Only what you
want.

Hearty Cheddar Broccoli Soup

Serving Soup with Style

Give your homemade soup a fun and stylish touch by serving it in individual
bread bowls. For each bowl, get a small round loaf of bread. Cut off the top
quarter of the loaf with a serrated knife. Remove the inside bread, leaving
1 to 1 1/2 inches on all sides and the bottom. Brush the inside with a little
olive oil, then bake the bread bowls on a baking sheet in a 350°F oven for
10 to 15 minutes.
Some more tips:
n Bread bowls work best with thicker soups. You may need to leave more
bread in the bread bowl to prevent thinner soups from leaking out.
n Use the bread you removed from the inside of the loaf to make croutons
for soup toppings. Cut or tear bread into bite-sized chunks. Brush with
some olive oil and season with your favorite herbs. Bake until lightly
golden brown.
n Sourdough is a favorite for bread bowls, but try complementing your
soup flavors with other types of bread: wild rice soup with pumpernickel,
cheddar broccoli with rye, or potato chowder with a sharp cheddar or
asiago cheese bread.

flavorful mixes and in no time
you have a delicious, hearty soup

in the kitchen.

Toledo man charged
in deaths of bound Ohio
couple
HOLLAND, Ohio (AP)
— A 24-year-old man has
been indicted on murder
charges in the January deaths
of a young Ohio couple
found in a suburban Toledo
home with plastic bags over
their heads and their hands
bound with tape.
Several media outlets report Samuel Todd Williams
of Toledo was indicted by
a Lucas County grand jury
Friday on two counts of aggravated murder, two counts
of kidnapping and one count
of burglary.
Authorities have said they
believe 21-year-old John
Clarke and 20-year-old Lisa
Straub were killed in a robbery gone awry.
The sheriff’s office has
said the couple had been living in the home near Holland
owned by Straub’s parents.
Investigators have said it appeared someone was searching for something in the
house.
It wasn’t clear late Friday
whether Williams had an attorney.
Ohio minimum wage to
increase 30 cents in January
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)
— Ohio’s minimum wage is
set to increase by 30 cents to
$7.70 an hour at the start of
2012.
Officials at the state Department of Commerce
said Friday that the increase
is part of a constitutional
amendment voters approved
in 2006, which says minimum wage will increase each
year at the rate of inflation.
The $7.70 rate applies to
workers 16 and older who
don’t get tips. The wage for
tipped employees will be
$3.85, a 15 cent increase.
The wage will be required
from employers who gross
more than $283,000 annually, up from the current
$271,000.
For employees at smaller
companies, and for 14- and
15-year-old workers, the
minimum wage is set to
match the federal minimum
wage, currently $7.25 per
hour.
Baby alligator rescued
from Ohio sewer plant
HAMILTON, Ohio (AP)
— A baby alligator that may
have been flushed down a
toilet has been rescued from
a wastewater treatment plant
The Hamilton JournalNews reports that a city
worker at the Hamilton plant
found the 11-inch-long alligator Friday. The city’s public works department director
says the alligator somehow
avoided injury when it was
caught in debris left by a
raking system that prevents
large items from entering
sewage pumps.
The director of Arrowhead Reptile Rescue says the

ty grand jury in Sidney on
five counts of unauthorized
use of the Ohio Law Enforcement Gateway program.
His attorney, Michael
Rumer, said Friday he didn’t
know specifics of the charges
but would enter a not-guilty
plea at a hearing next week.
The Sidney Daily News
reports a prosecutor says the
allegations involve use of the
computer program for “personal purposes.” A message
was left for the prosecutor.
The 57-year-old sheriff
has denied a sexual battery
charge in Auglaize County. It
stems from a former Shelby
County deputy’s accusation
that Kimpel sexually assaulted her last year.
Ohio isolates 19 juvenile
inmates after violence
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)
— Ohio has transferred 19
juvenile inmates to a special
unit following outbreaks of
violence that caused dozens
of injuries to other juvenile
inmates and staff members.
An increasing number of
inmates housed by Ohio’s
Department of Youth Services are violent because less
serious offenders are now
housed at the county level.
Youth Services spokeswoman Kim Parsell tells
The Columbus Dispatch for
a story Friday that some injuries were serious enough
to involve trips to hospital
emergency rooms.
Parsell says seven youths
from Scioto Juvenile Correctional Facility in Delaware and 12 from Circleville
Correctional Facility were
moved to a separate unit at
the Scioto facility.
A court-ordered monitor
continues to oversee Ohio’s
attempts to reduce violence
in the youth prisons following a 2004 lawsuit that alleged a culture of violence.
Ohio woman pleads not
guilty to semen theft charge
SPRINGFIELD,
Ohio
(AP) — A western Ohio
woman has pleaded not
guilty to charges that she
took frozen bull semen valued at $110,000.
Forty-eight-year-old
Karen Saum made the plea
Thursday in Clark County
Common Pleas Court to
charges of theft and of breaking and entering. She was
arrested in July. She is free
on her promise to return for
future proceedings.
The Springfield NewsSun reports Saum is a former employee of a company
called Genetic Connections.
Authorities say a liquidnitrogen tank with frozen
sperm inside was taken from
the company June 24 and
found in her garage.
Even small amounts of
semen can be valuable for
cattle breeders depending on
the bull’s heritage and characteristics.

Casino job-hunters in
Ohio bet on skills coaching
CLEVELAND (AP) —
There will be long odds for
landing a job at Ohio’s first
casino opening in March in
Cleveland. The casino says
11,800 people applied for
500 dealer jobs by the noon
Friday deadline.
Insurance salesman Robert Berkheimer hopes his
classes on resume-writing
and interview skills will help
him get a dealer’s job. He’s
learned to emphasize his service experience.
Cuyahoga Community
College offered the free
coaching classes as part of its
job-training outreach.
Full-time jobs as table
game/poker dealers will pay
about $17 to $22 hourly,
plus benefits. That’s comparable to the average salary
for welders, machinists and
crane operators in the region.
The Cleveland casino will
employ 1,600. Overall, casinos in Cleveland and those
opening later in Cincinnati,
Columbus and Toledo will
provide more than 6,000
jobs.
Ohio landlord gets jail
time in four tenant deaths
TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) —
An Ohio landlord has been
sentenced to six months in
jail after four of his tenants
died when they were overcome by fumes from a generator while they were sleeping
in a rental home that didn’t
have heat or electricity.
The Toledo judge who
sentenced Steven Snow on
Friday said Snow meant no
harm when he gave the family the generator.
Snow dropped off the
generator during a cold snap
in March. The next morning, he found the bodies of
the 39-year-old woman and
her three children. A coroner
ruled carbon monoxide poisoning killed them.
The Blade newspaper in
Toledo reports that Snow
apologized in court to the
victims’ relatives.
He had known the woman
for two decades and said he
thought of her and the children as family.

The Toledo Zoo has two new
tiger cubs.
The zoo says the cubs
were born Monday and that
it appears first-time mother
Marta is taking good care of
them.
It will be several months
before visitors can get a
firsthand look at the cubs
because it takes a while for
them to become fully mobile
and have full protection from
their vaccinations. The zoo
expects they will go on display sometime in January.
The cubs are the second
generation of Amur tigers
born at the zoo.
Once known as Siberian
tigers, they are critically endangered. About 143 live in
zoos accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums.

CINCINNATI (AP) —
Teachers at Cincinnati State

College have ended a weeklong strike and returned to
work without a contract.
Faculty members returned

current school term, which
ends the first week in November.

reports the president of the

full-time instructors said they
need to get students “up and
going again.”
The college’s president
greeted returning teachers.
They began the first faculty strike in the two-year
college’s history last Friday.
Faculty workloads are the
major issue in the dispute.
No further negotiations are
scheduled for now.
Adjuncts

classes during the strike, but
the newspaper reports some
students complained that not
all classes were covered or
no instructional work was assigned.

Medic: Info from Jackson
doctor didn’t add up

LOS ANGELES (AP) — After just a few moments in
Michael Jackson’s bedroom, the paramedic dispatched to
save the singer’s life knew things weren’t adding up.
There was the skinny man on the floor, eyes open with
a surgical cap on his head. His skin was turning blue. Paramedic Richard Senneff asked the sweating, frantic-looking
doctor in the room what condition the stricken man had.
“He said, ‘Nothing. He has nothing,’” Senneff told jurors at the involuntary manslaughter trial of Jackson’s doctor, Conrad Murray.
“Simply, that did not add up to me,” Senneff said.
Over the course of the 42 minutes that Los Angeles paramedics tried to revive Jackson, several other things about
the room and Murray’s responses seemed inconsistent to
Senneff.
After repeated prodding, Murray revealed a few details
about his actions, saying he had only given Jackson a dose
of the sedative lorazepam to help him sleep, Senneff testified.
In addition, there were bottles of medicine on Jackson’s
nightstand, and Murray finally offered that he was treating
the singer for dehydration and exhaustion.
Senneff said Murray never mentioned that he had also
been giving Jackson doses of the anesthetic propofol and
other sedatives, a key omission that prosecutors say shows
he repeatedly tried to conceal his actions during the struggle
to save the pop superstar.
Murray, 58, has pleaded not guilty. If convicted, he could
face up to four years in prison and lose his medical license.
Prosecutors contend the Houston-based cardiologist repeatedly lied to medics and emergency room doctors about
medications he had been giving Jackson in the singer’s
bedroom. They claim Murray administered a fatal dose of
propofol and other sedatives.
Defense lawyers claim Jackson gave himself the fatal
dose after his doctor left the room.
Defense attorney Nareg Gourjian asked Senneff whether
Jackson’s appearance was consistent with someone who
was a drug addict.
Senneff said that was a difficult determination to make,
but he did think the singer “looked like he had a chronic
health problem.”
Senneff was the first paramedic to reach Jackson’s bedroom and said within moments, he and three other paramedics were working to revive Jackson. After trying multiple heart-starting medications and other efforts, Jackson
was still lifeless.
“Did you ever see any sign of life in Mr. Jackson during
the entire time you were attempting to save him,” prosecutor Deborah Brazil asked.
“No I did not,” Senneff said.
Another paramedic dispatched to the room, Martin
Blount, agreed. He told jurors that they thought Jackson
was dead soon after they arrived in the room.
Blount also said he saw three open bottles of lidocaine
on the floor of the room but noted that Murray never mentioned giving Jackson the painkiller. He told jurors he saw
the doctor scoop up the vials and drop them in a black bag.
Between the paramedics’ testimony, Superior Court
Judge Michael Pastor threatened Murray’s lawyers with a
contempt charge over an interview the law partner of lead
defense counsel Ed Chernoff did Friday with “The Today
Show.” In the interview, attorney Matt Alford criticized a
key prosecution witness, Jackson’s bodyguard Alberto Alvarez.
Alvarez testified Thursday that Murray ordered him to
place vials of medication in a bag before calling 911. Defense attorneys have repeatedly challenged his account.
Prosecutors complained and Pastor watched the interview during a break. He told attorneys he was shocked and
had watched the interview “with my mouth open.” The interview was done hours after the judge warned attorneys
not to comment about the case outside court.
He ordered Alford to appear for a contempt hearing on
Nov. 15 and described him as a witness after Chernoff told
Pastor to hold him in contempt instead of his partner.
All the discussions about the interview were held outside
the presence of jurors, who are under strict orders to avoid
media coverage about the case.
The seven-man, five-woman panel instead heard testimony about efforts to revive Jackson, who the paramedics
and emergency room doctor thought was dead at his rented
mansion. Still, the singer was transported to Ronald Reagan
UCLA Medical Center because Murray wanted life-saving
efforts to continue.
After loading Jackson into an ambulance, Senneff said
he saw Murray collecting items from Jackson’s bedside.
The doctor was alone in the bedroom for several moments
before joining paramedics in the ambulance for the drive to
the hospital, Senneff said.
Gourjian suggested Murray had been collecting his wallet and glasses, but Senneff said he could not see the items.
In the ambulance, Blount said, he heard Murray make a
phone call. “‘It’s about Michael, and it doesn’t look good,’”
Blount recalled hearing Murray saying.
Jurors also heard from a former Murray patient who
lauded the doctor’s treatment of him, but said the cardiologist became increasingly distant and hard to reach while
working with Jackson.
