(Cash) Mob returns to Meigs County Staff Report POMEROY —The (Cash) Mob will be making its return to town next week, with the goal of helping to support local business. Want proof that if everyone does a little, we can do a lot? Come out Tuesday, Aug. 8 from 4-6 p.m. to Hartwell House for the next local Cash Mob. This is part of the Meigs County Chamber of Commerce’s Love Meigs, Shop Local Campaign. “A Cash Mob is based on a flash mob — people show up at a designated place and time, except they are not expected to sing and dance. Instead, people are encouraged to spend at least $10 at the store. If even half the community comes out and spends a little bit of money, it can have a huge impact on the business. The Cash Mob also promises to be a great time to socialize,” stated a news release announcing the event. “We are looking forward to hosting the event. It will give people a chance to visit our store and see what we have to offer. It is also a great opportunity to meet with people in the area,” Bobbi Karr, owner of Hartwell House. There will be several exclusive Cash Mob deals that will only be available during the event (4-6 p.m.) as well as drawings for the “mobbers.” “Cash Mobs are great events. They showcase a business and demonstrate that every little bit helps. Each purchase impacts our local economy with the money flowing back into our local communities,” stated John Hoback, Chamber President. Small businesses are essential to the commu- nity and it is important to support them year round. The Cash Mob is a fun event that will showcase a different store each time. Hartwell House sells a variety of items including Primitives by Kathy, Candleberry, Uno de 50, Waxing Poetic, Fenton beads, Lenny & Eva, beach decor, primitive and Americana decor, and a dozen more jewelry lines.

AG awards $2.7M for drug use prevention Staff Report JOIN THE CONVERSATION What’s your take on today’s news? Go to mydailysentinel. com and visit us on facebook to share your thoughts. COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine announced Wednesday that he is awarding more than $2.7 million in grant funds to a number of law enforcement agencies across the state for drug use prevention education programs in public schools. A total of 130 sheriffs’ offices and police departments will receive a portion of the $2,742,649 in Drug Use Prevention Grant funds announced Wednesday. The funds must be used to establish or maintain drug abuse prevention education and awareness programs for students during the 2017-2018 school year. Locally, the Meigs County Sheriff’s Office received $27,678. The Athens County Sheriff’s Office received $19,062 and the Athens City Police Department received $11,960. No funds were awarded in Gallia County. Grant recipients are required to include over- the-counter and prescription drug abuse prevention education in their programs. “The abuse of prescription drugs is one of the primary reasons behind the current opiate epidemic in Ohio, which is why it’s important that students receive ageappropriate lessons about the dangers of these and other drugs at an early age,” said DeWine. D.A.R.E. programs and school resource officer drug use prevention programs were eligible to apply for the grants, and all programs must be conducted in cooperation with the public school superintendent of each school district where the programming will take place. The Drug Use Prevention Grant Fund supports programs such as Botvin LifeSkills, D.A.R.E. Keepin’ It Real, PALS - Prevention through Alternative Learning Styles, I’m Special, Too Good For Drugs, Reach Out Now, and Stay on Track. �OBITUARIES/NEWS 2 Thursday, August 3, 2017 Daily Sentinel MEIGS CALENDAR OF EVENTS Editor’s Note: The Daily Sentinel appreciates your input to the community calendar.

Dr. Trent’s new location, 21018 Ohio River Road Mason, West Virginia, officially opened Feb. 28 and has convenient weekday hours.

He is trained in all aspects of general, cosmetic, and restorative dentistry. “The new location is a full service dental office that welcomes patients of all ages and dental needs,” Dr. Trent said. According to a statement from Dr. Trent’s office spokesperson: “Dr. Trent and our team are pleased to offer many services that are not offered anywhere else in our area.

As part of this effort, Rio officially opened its new location for the Rio Grande Jackson Center with a ribbon cutting and open house event Friday. The Jackson Center first opened in the summer of 2015 to offer a close-to-home location for Rio and College Credit Plus students from the Jackson area and was created as part of a consortium funded by the Industry Workforce Alliance Grant. To continue serving the community with more opportunities for higher education, Rio moved into the larger facility during the Spring 2017 semester. Bobbi Montgomery, vice chair of the Rio Grande Community College Board of Trustees and CFO of Montgomery Machine and Fabrication, Inc., said she feels this will bring new opportunities to members of the community. “Bringing a quality education so close to home at such an affordable price is going to make Jackson a stronger community,” Montgomery said. “Having this level of higher education in the Jackson area overcomes the transportation barrier for people, including our CCP students, and giving them greater access to Rio.” The ribbon cutting Pictured left to right, Jackson Mayor Randy Heath, Vice Chair of the Rio Grande Community College Board of Trustees Bobbi Montgomery, Rio President Dr. Michelle Johnston, and Ohio District 93 Representative Ryan Smith cut the ribbon to celebrate the grand opening of new location for the Rio Grande Jackson Center. ceremony marked the move and growth of the Jackson Center as the staff and faculty prepare for the beginning of the center’s third year in the community. Rio President, Dr. Michelle Johnston, said she is excited to see the relocation project officially completed and ready for classes to begin. “We are all excited to make the new location official for the Rio Grande Jackson Center. This is a great opportunity for Rio to continue making higher education accessible and affordable to our community,” Johnston said. “Everyone has worked so hard to get the building fully remodeled and ready for the upcoming school year. I am proud of the staff and faculty and look forward to seeing all of the exciting things coming from the Jackson Center.” After the ribbon cutting ceremony, the faculty and staff hosted an open house for the community to tour the new facility and learn more about the programs and classes offered at the new location. Montgomery said another reason she is excited to see the new Jackson Center officially opened is the opportunity to bring new businesses and jobs to the area. “A trained and ready workforce is the number one reason for a company to locate in a community. As another bonus, we were able to fill an empty building in Jackson, which is always exciting for a community,” Montgomery said. “Employers are looking to fill skill gaps in the workforce, so in order to grow and bring new employment opportunities to the area, we have to have a trained workforce. Having Rio in Jackson County will help to bridge those gaps and make our community a stronger place.” For more information on the Rio Grande Jackson Center, contact 740288-0284, or visit the new location at 980 East Main Street Jackson, Ohio 45640.

Today, the 60720838 �E ditorial 4 Thursday, August 3, 2017 Daily Sentinel THEIR VIEW Trump doesn’t get what Scouting is all about About every four years, the Boy Scouts of America convene for a jamboree. The tradition stretches back to 1937, tens of thousands of kids gathering for a week of good cheer. These days, picture Davy Crockett on a mountain bike. There are seminars on orienteering and skateboarding workshops. Kids can bird-watch or ride zip lines. Famous musicians are invited to perform concerts, the king of Sweden is a regular (he’s a Scout), and sometimes even the president of the United States shows up to give a speech. Many presidents have been Scouts Rosecrans of one type or another. Obama and Baldwin Kennedy, Ford and Clinton. At a Contributing jamboree, the president usually says columnist a few words about public service. In 1950, Truman encouraged the Scouts to fight for world peace. In 1964, LBJ talked about space travel. In 2005, George W. Bush gave an inspiring talk about Scouts “serving on the front line of America’s armies of compassion.” And sometimes the sitting president is Donald Trump. The Scouts are not politically affiliated. Last week, though, you would have been excused for thinking otherwise. After promising not to talk about politics, Trump delivered a speech rife with it, full of his usual boasting and self-pity. He insulted the media. He scolded his Cabinet. He told an anecdote about running into a wealthy real estate developer who regretted retiring to a life of titillation in the south of France — which is when Trump paused, while addressing children, to rib them for being, as Scouts, probably too upstanding to comprehend what he was talking about. Trump being Trump, the man of no manners, still shocks us. But what appears to have unsettled people more was the Scouts’ response to the event. During Trump’s speech, the crowd cheered. They filled the air with chants of “USA! USA!” That led some in the liberal Twitter-verse to liken the jamboree to a Hitler youth rally. Of course, knee-jerk Nazi comparisons are standard Twitter oratory these days. But the Scouts’ reaction has a lot more to do with jamboree culture than indoctrinated Trumpism. The Scouts are more culturally diverse, more liberal, than many assume. I attended the last jamboree, in 2013. I was there to research the “inclusion issue” — whether or not the BSA should accept LGBTQ members. As an Eagle Scout and a member of the Order of the Arrow, the BSA’s Honor Society, I spent three days interviewing more than two dozen kids and adults. Not a single one had a problem with the idea of gay Scouts or gay leaders. If anything, they worried the BSA wouldn’t evolve fast enough to prevent its corporate funding getting cut. It can be hard to see from the outside that Scouting is meant to foster togetherness. Every troop is organized into patrols, each with its own emblem and flag. It’s ingrained in Scouts that nothing gets accomplished without teamwork — whether it’s for a merit badge in public health, or learning how to help a friend while camping. Scouts aren’t training to be patriots; they’re learning to become citizens. One day at the jamboree, I saw a group of Scouts out hiking, chanting “USA! USA!” the same way Scouts cheered during Trump’s speech. Then a troop from Scotland came up a hill, with a Scottish flag. One of the boys was in a kilt. And almost instantly, the first Scouts switched their chant, to “Scotland rules! Scotland rules!” I also heard spontaneous bursts of “Drink! Drink! Drink!”, as if a scoutmaster was pouring shots. In fact, the kids were simply reminding one another to hydrate in the heat. That’s Scouting in a nutshell: America’s most cheerful, earnest, sober-minded frat boys and girls. I’m sure some of the Scouts who cheered our insulter in chief were sincere in their applause. But I’d bet more of them simply got carried away. Appealing to base instincts will elicit base reactions — especially from teenagers surrounded by their friends — and Scouting’s not immune to conformity. Take the uniform: Even as it helps erase financial differences between the haves and have-nots, it also leads to group-think. That doesn’t make the Scouts brown shirts, though. If people want to condemn the BSA, condemn the leadership. The organization is extremely slow to evolve — whether on the inclusion issue, or requiring kids to be religious, or even how the BSA failed for years to report sexual predators. As an alumnus, I’m frequently ashamed. But when Scouting’s done right, it’s still a shelter. In my experience, Scouts are typically a step apart from the norm. Lonely kids. Smart kids. Dumb kids. Awkward kids. Scouting takes a child and connects him to something bigger than his problems, whether it’s the wilderness, or his community, or simply concern for someone else. The very first jamboree, in 1935, was canceled because of a polio outbreak. FDR had been scheduled to attend. He delivered his speech instead via the radio. “Scouting is essentially and clearly a program for the development of that unselfish, cooperative attitude of mind,” Roosevelt said. It’s as close as anything I’ve read to grasping the movement’s true purpose. If only our current president had been a Scout.

The first hugely notable time was when his Skyhawk jet was shot down by a missile over North Vietnam, he landed with a parachute in a lake, nearly drowned, was rescued and bayoneted, and stuck in a prison. There, for a period, he was beaten up multiple times daily and finally was told as a propaganda move that he could go home, an online account reminds us. No thanks, he said, unless servicemen captured before him were released first. That did not happen. He spent more than five years in what was then jocularly called the Hanoi Hilton, although a Hilton it clearly was not. Here’s a man who will sacrifice himself for America and others, and this latest time he did it shortly after brain surgery. The Republican senator from Arizona and former candidate for president has brain cancer. Bed is recommended at this point, but he scooted to Washington, D.C., to cast a vital vote to allow floor debate and action not like, but health care is a mess, he said, and Obamacare needs revision just as some replacement ideas need revision. What’s surprising is that his vote was crucial in killing another GOP bill that he said fell short on more insurance company competition, lowering costs and improving care. If it had passed, there would have been a conference with the House, including additions and subtractions that could have answered his concerns in another vote. But maybe he thought a brand new start was necessary and it is worth noting that his original speech got a standing ovation on both sides of the aisle, not just because of what he said, probably, but because of who he is, the specialness of his three decades in the chamber and what he now faces. Is it possible the speech could help lead to gradual improvements? Maybe, and thanks for that, Senator McCain. Jay Ambrose is an op-ed columnist for Tribune News Service.

That’s because the Ravenswood Red Devils, sporting six golfers as opposed to only four for Wahama and Point Pleasant, captured Tuesday’s season-opening triangular golf match at Riverside Golf Course in Mason. The Red Devils dialed up five scores of 45 or better, including three scores of 37 or lower on the par-35 front-side layout. Ravenswood fired a team total of 148, while the Black Knights notched a 203 and the Wahama White Falcons finished with a 221. The top four scores count towards the team total, but both Point Pleasant and Wahama were forced to play all four of their respective cards. The Red Devils had six players compete on Tuesday, which was the opening day of the high school golf season throughout the state of West Virginia. Ravenswood was paced by match medalist Carson Fox, who shot a one-under-par 34. The medalist runner-up was teammate Alex Easthom, who was right behind Fox with an even-par 35. Ciah Kennedy carded a 37 for the Red Devils, while the final counting card belonged to Gavin Fox with a 42. Devin Raines with a 45 and Phillip Goodwin with a 53 were the Red Devils’ noncounting scores. For Point Pleasant, senior Bryce Tayengco — who qualified individually for the Class AA state tournament a season ago — led the way with a 46, while sophomore brother Dylan Tayengco trailed him by just two strokes (48). Haley Pierson shot a 51 and Colton Fridley had a 58 for the only other Black Knight scores. Wahama was paced by senior Anthony Ortiz with a 47, as Gage Smith followed closely with a 51. The White Falcons also reported a 59 from Jase Heckaman and a 64 from Kyher Bush. Point Pleasant returned to action on Thursday with a match at Big Bend Golf Club with Winfield.

John Minchillo | AP Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (28) runs a play against cornerback Darqueze Dennard (21) during training camp Friday, in Cincinnati. Dennard and fellow corner William Jackson III can expect more playing time in the season opener because of the one-game suspension of veteran Adam Jones. CINCINNATI (AP) — Darqueze Dennard knew he wouldn’t get a chance to make an immediate impact when the Bengals drafted him in the first round in 2014. In three seasons, he’s started only four games. William Jackson III was in the same wait-until-later mode when Cincinnati took him with the 24th overall pick last year. A torn chest muscle during training camp wiped out his rookie season. The two cornerbacks finally have a chance to show they deserve an expanded role. Adam “Pacman” Jones is suspended for the season opener against Baltimore on Sept. 10 because of his off-season arrest, so there’s an opportunity for one of the cornerbacks-in-waiting to show they’re ready for more. “My whole thing is just I want an opportunity,” Dennard said. “I think the coaches have faith in me. I have faith in myself. My teammates have faith in me.” Dennard and Jackson have been hurt and stockpiled behind another pair of first-round picks — Jones (by Tennessee in 2005) and Dre Kirkpatrick (by the Bengals in 2012). Dennard expected to have a bigger role by now, but he had hip and hamstring injuries in 2014 and a shoulder injury in 2015. An ankle injury wiped out his preseason last year and sidelined him for the first game. Frustrated by spending so much time in medical rehabilitation, Dennard adjusted his diet and his training regimen in the offseason. He’s encouraged by how good he feels at the start of training camp. “I changed my body to get stronger, quicker, faster,” Dennard said. “Right now, it’s about staying healthy. That’s been my problem the whole time. It’s not that I can’t play, I’m just not healthy.” Jackson went on injured reserve after his chest injury, ending his season. He was healthy by the end of the season, but he was ineligible to play. He’d never suffered such a significant injury. “Being on the sideline, I learned a lot,” See BENGALS | 7 �SPORTS Daily Sentinel NFL NFL Calendar Aug. 3 — Hall of Fame game.

(AP) — Martin Truex Jr. believes being far away from NASCAR’s hub has helped him during the most successful stretch of his career, a run he hopes ends with a championship this season. Truex, the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series points leader, also is tied for the series lead with three victories. Already locked into the playoffs for a third straight season, Truex believes he’s better prepared to end the year with NASCAR’s trophy. “It just seems like consistency has gotten better as we go down this road together as a team,” Truex said Tuesday. “Last year was a good and this year so far seems even better so hopefully we can continue that upward trend.” A big reason, at least in Truex’s mind, is his Furniture Row Racing team’s headquarters in Denver, two time zones Pct GB .651 — .509 15 .486 17½ .472 19 .439 22½ Tuesday’s Games Baltimore 7, Kansas City 2 Detroit 4, N.Y.

Believing" �SPORTS/CLASSIFIEDS 8 Thursday, August 3, 2017 Daily Sentinel Phillies scrap plans to honor Pete Rose PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Philadelphia Phillies have canceled plans to honor Pete Rose next week because of a woman’s claim she had a sexual relationship with baseball’s hit king when she was a minor. The woman, identified as Jane Doe this week in a court filing, said Rose called her in 1973, when she was 14 or 15, and they began a sexual relationship in Cincinnati that lasted several years. She also alleges Rose met her in locations outside Ohio for sex. Rose’s lawyer says the woman’s claims are unverified. The Phillies were going to induct Rose into their Wall of Fame in an on-field ceremony on Aug. 12. Rose bobble- heads were going to be distributed on Aug. 11. The Phillies will not give away the collectibles and said fans with tickets for either game can exchange them or get a refund. “While I am truly honored that the Phillies fans voted for me to be this year’s Wall of Fame inductee, I am concerned that other matters will overshadow the goodwill associated with Alumni Weekend, and I agree with the decision not to participate,” Rose said. Rose, who was banned from baseball in 1989, made four All-Star appearances and helped the Phillies to one of their two world championships during his five seasons in Philadelphia from 1979-83. Rose was selected through fan voting and was set to become the 39th inductee into the club’s Wall of Fame. “My baseball years in Philadelphia were amazing, not just because we won it all in 1980 and came close in 1983, but also because the fans welcomed me from day one,” he said in April. But public pressure against Rose played a role in the Phillies’ decision to scrap the tribute. The women’s claim became public from testimony presented by the defense as part of a federal lawsuit Rose filed last year in Philadelphia against a lawyer whose investigation got the Cincinnati native kicked out of Major League Baseball for gambling. Rose contends John Dowd defamed him by saying on the radio that the former baseball great had raped young teen girls during spring training. Rose has acknowledged having a relationship with the woman beginning when she was 16, the age of consent in Ohio. Rose alleges in the lawsuit that Dowd damaged his reputation and endorsement deals during a July 2015 interview on WCHE-AM radio. Dowd said during the radio appearance that Rose associate Michael Bertolini told investigators he “ran young girls” to Rose during spring training, which Dowd called “statutory rape every time,” according to Rose’s lawsuit. Bertolini’s lawyers have denied that. Rose acknowledged in a statement accompanying Monday’s filing that he did have a relationship with the woman, but he said it started when she was 16. He also states they never had sex outside Ohio. At the time, Rose was in his mid-30s and was married with two kids. Rose’s personal problems never seemed to affect his popularity in baseball. He’s a regular on the autograph circuit and does broadcast work for Fox. The Cincinnati Reds unveiled a bronze sculpture this season outside Great American Ball Park depicting Rose’s headfirst slide. He was inducted into the Reds’ Hall of Fame last June and had his No. 14 retired. The 76-year-old hits leader is banned from baseball’s Hall of Fame. Commissioner Rob Manfred has denied Rose’s latest petition for reinstatement, but hasn’t ruled out making him eligible for Cooperstown someday. The fourth annual Philly Sports Roast also said it canceled its Aug. 10 event with Rose as the guest of honor. Tickets that started at $150 will be refunded. Philadelphia’s SugarHouse Casino said it canceled Rose’s scheduled Aug. 12 autograph signing that was to be held just hours before his Wall of Fame induction. Refunds also were available for those tickets. Notices Professional Services Apartments/Townhouses Houses For Rent Automotive NOTICE OHIO VALLEY PUBLISHING CO.

He said he recently sent Woods a text — they have known each other since they were teenagers — and Woods messaged him back. It was important to clear the air. And now for the finishing kick. Perez finally hit a wall, though partially by design. He missed the cut in the U.S. Open by one shot, took a month off to recharge for a busy schedule at the end of the year, and missed the cut in the British Open. If anything, it hurt his prospects of making the Presidents Cup team. “He wants to be part of this team in the worst way,” said U.S. captain Steve Stricker, who played a practice round with Perez at Royal Birkdale. “He hasn’t been playing as well of late as he did at the start of the year, but there’s four events left. He’s on our radar, for sure.

Northwestern. 60730379 TODAY! 60729839 AKRON, Ohio (AP) — Pat Perez is in his 16th season on the PGA Tour and finally feeling like he’s in the big leagues. For the first time in his career, Perez is eligible for all four majors and the four World Golf Championships. And at No. 11 in the FedEx Cup with three weeks before the playoffs begin, he is on track to make it to East Lake for the Tour Championship for the first time. At age 41, one year removed from shoulder surgery that he feared might end his career, the grass has never looked greener. “I can’t even describe it,” Perez said. “The likelihood of me being in this tournament? I was No. 334 in the world. To have the year I’ve had, it’s just amazing.” He wasn’t sure which club to hit off the 10th tee at Firestone during a practice round Tuesday because his one and only appearance in this World Golf Championship was in 2009, the year Tiger Woods set a PGA Tour record by winning for the seventh time on the same course. Perez finished 12 shots behind. Perez and Woods go way back, and it involves more than some fiery (and accurate) comments he made about Woods on his radio show earlier this year. He beat Woods by eight shots in winning the 1993 Junior World Championship at Torrey Pines. Later that year, Perez won the Junior PGA Championship at Pinehurst No. 4 with a 72-hole score of 271, which remains the tournament record in the boys’ division. But it took Perez los- � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
