EQIP is a voluntary conservation program which helps producers make conservation work for them. Together, NRCS and producers invest in solutions that conserve natural resources for the future while also improving agricultural operations. Local projects include pasture improvement projects, high tunnels, Bobwhite Quail and pollinator habitat, oak management, and wildlife. Through EQIP, NRCS provides agricultural producers with ﬁnancial resources and one-onone help to plan and implement improvements, or what NRCS calls conservation practices. Using these practices can lead to cleaner water and air, healthier soil and better wildlife habitat, all while improving agricultural operations. Through EQIP, you can voluntarily implement conservation practices, and NRCS co-invests in these practices with you. Financial assistance is now available in a variety of agricultural categories such as cropland, forestry, pasture operations, and organic. Several special projects are also available which address water quality, forestry management, improving pollinator populations, applying best management practices and many more. All available agricultural categories are listed on the Ohio NRCS website under “EQIP Application Deadlines.” To participate in USDA conservation programs, applicants should be farmers or farm or forest landowners, and meet eligibility criteria. Applications signed and submitted to NRCS by the Oct. 19 deadline will be evaluated for ﬁscal year 2019 funding. To learn more about EQIP or other technical and ﬁnancial assistance available through NRCS conservation programs, visit “Get Started with NRCS” on the NRCS website, visit your local USDA Service Center, or call Carrie Crislip, NRCS district conservationist for Meigs County, at 740992-6646.

The phrase has evolved over time to mean much more. It now generally means, “Do you understand what I am saying?” The ability to communicate clearly is vital, but it can be somewhat complex. Various websites say this about communication: “Humans communicate by thinking of the information Randy they wish to share, encoding it, and Riley transferring it by either verbal, nonContributing verbal or written mediums directly columnist to a receiver who then decodes the information. Communication methods include eye contact, sign language, pictures, writing and sound.” With that complex deﬁnition, there will always be plenty of room for misunderstanding. That description of communications is much more complicated than the ﬁrst telephone message spoken by the inventor of the telephone, Alexander Graham Bell, when he said, “Mr. Watson. Come here. I want to see you.” Since Bell spoke those few words to Watson, trillions of words have been spoken over the telephone. I’m sure many of those words have been misunderstood. Verbal communication, whether it’s face to face, on the telephone, voicemail, radio or television, is probably our most common means of communication. It is also very easy to miscommunicate — to misunderstand. It requires that the speaker and the listener are on the same page — so to speak. Only a few people still enjoy writing letters. That’s a shame. Recently, I was going through some old boxes upstairs and started reading letters I received from my sons about 25 years ago. They were in the service at the time. Josh was stationed in Alaska with the Army. Danny was in the Coast Guard stationed in Key West. Simply re-reading their letters brought me a feeling of love, warmth and happiness. Knowing that I was holding the very paper they held as they wrote their letters to Dad … well, it just felt good. It’s hard to imagine going through life without being able to read. Years ago, when I was a teenager working on a produce farm, I met an old guy named Frank. As a teenager, anyone who drove a truck for a living and wore bibbed overalls to work every day seemed like an old guy. Frank was of indeterminate age. He might have been anywhere from 4- to 75 years old. I enjoyed talking with Frank as we loaded ripe melons onto his old, ﬂatbed delivery truck. With the wooden sides set in place, we could really pile on the melons. Once loaded, Frank would head west toward Indiana to make drops at markets and grocery stores over a large area of western Ohio and Indiana. Everybody seemed to like Frank. One day, I mentioned to my Mom about how much I enjoyed talking with Frank. She mentioned that he was a very nice guy, and that it was a shame that he never learned how to read. I was shocked. It was hard to imagine getting along in life without being able to read. I found it nearly impossible to imagine driving from state to state and ﬁnding your way to various locations without being able to read the words on a map. Mom explained that Frank couldn’t read, but that he could “‘recognize” some simple words. As readers, if we see a word we don’t know, we can sound it out by pronouncing the letters as they appear. After repeating it a few times, the word that is spelled by the letters makes sense. We had read the new word. Frank didn’t know the alphabet. He couldn’t sound-out words, but after seeing an unfamiliar word a few times, he would eventually recognize the word whenever he saw it. Also, Mom explained, Frank knew his numbers and directions. If he headed west on SR 725, he knew it would become SR 44 in Indiana. He also knew that if he followed the signs for SR 44 he would eventually enter a town with a name that looked like … LIBERTY. Then he found a sign that looked like “IGA” and he would stop to drop off some melons. Frank was able to get though life without being able to read, but, oh my goodness, what he missed. He didn’t know the adventure and the beauty of sailing the south seas as described in the book “Mutiny on the Bounty.” He missed the magic that is contained in the words of poetry and the peace that can be achieved from reading the Psalms of Solomon. He was denied the joy of reading a Dr. Seuss book to his grandchildren. There is a certain joy in reading that should not be denied to anyone. No one should be denied the joy that is found in a good book. “Do you read me?” THEIR VIEW Pitfalls of public speaking “Public speaking ranks as our No. 1 fear, even outranking the fear of death, says Peter Desberg, PhD, professor of psychology at California State University,” according to www.everydayhealth.com. The website also reports Desberg, who is the author of Speaking Scared, Sounding Good: Public Speaking for the Private Person as saying, “Some people have so much anxiety about speaking in front of an audience that they turn down promotions and ruin their careers.” I intimately understand this phobic dread, despite being a public speaker for more than 25 years. Yet the ﬁrst time I presented a brief message in a public speaking class at a Columbus college, I think I actually cried. This occurred decades ago, leaving my memory about the terrifying experience a little fuzzy. I believe I also received the award for the “most improved” student that semester. Not the “best,” rather the one who no longer dissolved into a puddle of tears making a presentation. Later, I even became part of the Intercollegiate Speech Team at Bluffton University. Back then, I would have never imagined I would eventually become a (former) TV reporter, speak in conferences, churches, civic might be perspirmeetings, or teach ing from terror, but in a university setemploy the classic ting.

Then speak to that ﬁctitious individual who probably really does exist out there. That way your presentation won’t seemed staged or emotionless. In closing, another paramount point is to watch for reliance on repetitive words throughout the presentation. Most of us who do public speaking fall into a bad habit of having “pet” words or phrases including: 1) you know, 2) okay, 3) um, 4) and the new “you know,” which is 4) “so.” Whether used when stalling for time to formulate our next thought, as a transition, or due to a bad habit of repeatedly saying the word, this can be quite distracting for the listener and negatively impact our message’s effectiveness. There are other signiﬁcant pitfalls, but not enough space to write them all. “So,” if this information isn’t helpful in combating your phobia about public speaking, “you know,” you could run from the challenge. “Um,” but that wouldn’t be a good idea. We never experience success without pushing past our fears to embrace a new opportunity. “Okay?” Christina Ryan Claypool is a freelance journalist and an inspirational speaker.

For Hayman, it began as a personal goal to get herself in better physical health and she liked the accountability of having to train for a big walk. Smith has run in 5K events, but liked the idea of a challenge, as well. But the women not only had to train physically for their events, they also had to raise money in order to participate. Blackshire and Hart had to raise $1,200 each, while the other ladies had to raise $2,300 each. They did both group and individual fundraisers, including bingo, a glowin-the-dark 5K, spaghetti dinner, kickball tournament, and rafﬂes. Blackshire said at the school where she teaches, the principal even took a pie to the face to help her raise funds. And, after some of the women met their individual goals, they did not stop until everyone got their money. “I have always told the girls joining me that I would do everything I could to help them get their money, so they wouldn’t have to pay out-of-pocket,” Hudnall said. “A couple of the girls were shy of their money, so I held a painting fundraiser and organized a cornhole tournament to get the last of their money.” Harris said she is very thankful for the small community supporting her and the team ﬁnancially. “We have to raise a large amount of money, and our supporters have never let us down,” she said. “They are there ﬁnancially, spiritually, and mentally.” cer walk.

But the hands of time move so that we move forward and not backwards. While I cannot speak to his speciﬁc goals, the results of President Lincoln’s signing of the Emancipation Proclamation made way for a nation to understand that, regardless of race, we are all linked. And therefore, the more we learn to value our differences, the more we turn to one another and not away from one another, the more we can accomplish and the greater we become as a people and as a country. Because of his (Lincoln’s) boldness and because of his action, the 13th Amendment was created and that began a wave of change that transformed America, a transformation that later saw civil rights law passed, a change that saw voting rights passed.

Just 10 points separated the Southern and Miller volleyball teams in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division matchup on Monday night in Perry County, with the Lady Falcons earning a straight games win with a trio of narrow decisions.

Miller battled back to take the edge at 21-20 and never trailed again on its way to the 25-22 win. After four early lead changes in the second game, the Lady Tornadoes stretched their advantage to four points, at 15-11. MHS tied the game at 18 and again at 19, before scoring six of the ﬁnal eight points to take the game by a 25-21 count. There were three lead changes in the third game, with the Lady Falcons taking the lead for good at 7-6. SHS tied the game at 18, but ultimately fell by a 25-22 count. Southern ﬁnished with a side-out percentage of 45.9, while Miller’s was 53. The Lady Tornadoes earned a serve percentage of 97.0 with a pair of aces.

Steelers hold off Buccaneers, 30-27 interceptions of Ryan Fitzpatrick, the 35-yearold journeyman who threw for 819 yards and eight touchdowns in two victories to begin Tampa Bay’s season. Fitzpatrick, the only player in NFL history to open a season with consecutive games with over 400 yards passing and four touchdowns, tried his best to create “FitzMagic” again in his third start in place of the suspended Jameis Winston. He led a long ﬁeld goal drive in the third quarter, and then tossed fourth-quarter TD passes of 4 yards to Chris Godwin and 24 yards to Mike Evans to rally the Bucs (2-1) within 30-27 with 5:43 remaining. “We obviously dug ourselves a pretty big hole,” Fitzpatrick said. “The great thing to me coming out of this game TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — It was not the way Ben Roethlisberger would draw it up, but the Pittsburgh Steelers will take it. In desperate need of a win, the two-time defending AFC North champions capped a tumultuous week in which star receiver Antonio Brown made headlines by shouting at an assistant coach on the sidelines and getting into a spat on social media with a 30-27 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night. The Steelers (1-1-1) built a 20-point lead held on for their ﬁrst win despite not scoring after halftime. “I don’t feel like we had the ball much in the second half. Three possessions maybe. We need to do a better job putting it away,” Roeth- lisberger said. “At the end of the day we just wanted to get out of here with a win,” cornerback Joe Haden added. “It wasn’t a goodlooking win at all. They made a lot of plays on us, but at the end we made some big stops.” Roethlisberger threw for 353 yards and three touchdowns, with all but 80 yards of that production coming while the Steelers were building a 30-10 halftime lead. Vance McDonald scored on a 75-yard pass play and ﬁnished with four catches for 112 yards. Brown and Ryan Switzer also had ﬁrsthalf TD receptions for Pittsburgh, which had been winless through two games for the ﬁrst time since 2013.

The girls that have not had a lot of court time really stepped up. The girls who are regularly out the also greatly adapted to the change of rotation. I was very happy to see the encouragement and support and they continued to stay motivated.

The eighth-ranked RedStorm recorded their sixth shutout in seven outings this season, cruising to a 7-0 win over visiting Mount Vernon Nazarene University, Saturday night, in non-conference action at Evan E. Davis Field. Rio Grande improved to 7-0 with the victory. The Cougars, who hadn’t allowed the opposition more than two goals in any of their previous eight outings, dropped to 5-3-1 with the loss. Rio Grande ﬁnished with a 28-3 edge in shots overall, including a 14-0 advantage in shots on goal. The RedStorm has a 99-9 cushion in overall shots over the course of its last three outings and hasn’t allowed a shot on frame in its last two contests. Freshman Nicolas Cam Orellana (Santiago, Chile) scored a pair of goals, while senior Eduardo Zurita (Sant Boi de Llobregat, Spain) had a marker of his own and assisted on two others. Zurita got the assist on Rio’s ﬁrst score - a a goal by sophomore Ewan McLauchlan (Aroch, Scotland) - just 2:24 into the match. Cam Orellana scored off of a pass by sophomore Benjamin Andoh (Glasgow, Scotland) just over 18 minutes in and junior James Williamson (San Jose, Costa Rica) had an unassisted score just over two minutes later to make it 3-0. The lead reached 4-0 with 15:40 left before halftime when senior Mitchell Osmond (Sydney, Australia) scored on a penalty kick, while Zurita had a PK of his own just over 8-1/2 minutes into the second stanza to extend the cushion once again. Cam Orellana’s second score came off a Zurita assist with 28:54 remaining, while sophomore Callum Malanaphy (Stourbridge, England) set the ﬁnal score with a goal via a pass from freshman Ethan Heath-Kerridge (Perth, Australia) with 4:54 left to play. The game featured 33 common fouls between the two squads, as well as a yellow card booking on each team and a red card to MVNU’s Gerardo Rivas just under four minutes into the second half.

CALL TODAY! �SPORTS Daily Sentinel White Falcons whip Fed Hock, 50-22 By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com STEWART, Ohio — The White Falcons provided the lightning this time around … and not even Mother Nature could rain on their parade. The Wahama football team scored on its ﬁrst four possessions, forced a running clock for all but eight seconds of the second half and also handed ﬁrst-year coach James Toth his ﬁrst win on Monday night during a convincing 50-22 victory over host Federal Hocking in a rain-soaked Week 5 Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division contest at Lester and Betty Green Field in Athens County. In a game that was postponed Friday night due to lightning, the White Falcons (1-4, 1-3 TVC Hocking) wasted little time in taking control of a battle between winless teams. The Red and White had ﬁve different players score points in the opening half alone, which led to a sizable 38-6 advantage headed into the break. The Lancers (0-4, 0-3) — who have now dropped 35 straight decisions, dating back to a 16-14 win over Waterford in Week 9 of the 2014 campaign — trailed 44-6 headed into the ﬁnale, but the Maroon and Gold put together a pair of scoring drives down the stretch to close the gap down to 28 points with eight seconds left in regulation. It was the only time after the intermission that the clock wasn’t continuously running, which ultimately proved to be the only victory that the hosts could enjoy on this night. First-year WHS head coach James Toth — Photos by Bryan Walters | OVP Sports Wahama senior Tanner Smith (7) follows his blocking during a first quarter run on Monday night in a Week 5 TVC Hocking football contest against Federal Hocking in Stewart, Ohio. Wahama senior Ronin Madill (9) runs with the ball during the first half of Monday night’s Week 5 TVC Hocking football contest against Federal Hocking in Stewart, Ohio. who was an assistant on numerous Wahama teams until the 2010 campaign — was a bit emotional after picking up his ﬁrst victory on the White Falcon sidelines in roughly eight years. After all, knowing where this program was two months ago when he accepted the job — the proud mentor couldn’t help but be proud of his troops and what they had just accomplished. “You have to understand that we started in July with 13 guys, but the school and the community rallied around this program because it is proud of what it has done on the foot- ball ﬁeld,” Toth said. “Despite starting out with four losses, we didn’t have any kids quit … but instead we had more kids come out and try to help this team put together some wins. Right now, I couldn’t be any happier for these kids simply because they’ve continued to work hard … and now they have something to celebrate. “This win isn’t about me, it’s about the work that these kids have put in and the adversity that they have overcome. This victory is also for the very supportive football community that Wahama is. We’ll enjoy this one now and see if we can’t put together another one of these this Friday. It’s a short week and we have a lot of work to do, but we do have some momentum heading into the Eastern game.” Ronin Madill gave the guests a permanent lead less than four minutes into regulation as his nine-yard run — combined with a successful Tanner Smith two-point conversion run — gave Wahama an 8-0 edge with 8:50 remaining.
