COLUMBUS, Ohio — A Democratic congressman who is weighing a U.S. Senate run in politically divided Ohio has publicly declared a position switch on abortion, saying Wednesday the decision is deeply personal and unrelated to any political aspirations. In an op-ed published Wednesday in the Akron Beacon Journal, U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan, of Niles in northeast Ohio, wrote that he initially opposed the procedure that ends pregnancy but now favors abortion rights. He said the stance is not new, but has been reflected in his voting record for about five years. Ryan wrote that he grew up in a Catholic household and was opposed to abortion, but that stories shared by female constituents over 14 years in public service have led him to believe “the heavy hand of government” should be removed from reproductive decision-making. “I’ve heard firsthand from women of all ages, races and socioeconomic backgrounds about the circumstances and hardships that accompany this personal choice, which we should not judge,” he wrote. He cited abusive relationships, financial hardship, health scares, rape and incest among reasons women may seek to end pregnancies. Ryan also has an 8-month-old son, his first child.

American Legion announce Religious Emphasis Week By Donald Lambert elambert@civitasmedia.com POMEROY — Chaplin Mick Williams, of American Legion Drew Webster Post No. 39 in Pomeroy, says in commemoration of the dramatic sacrifices of four armed forces chaplins during World War II, the American Legion will observe Relgious Emphasis Week on Feb. 1-7, and Four Chaplins’ Sunday on Feb. 1. Legion officials and clergymen are planning special programs for the observance of the 72nd anniversary of the sinking of the USS Dorchester and the heroism demonstrated by four chaplins. Of the many thrilling incidents of World War II, probably none stirred the nation more deeply than the story of these four chaplins, whose heroic efforts were credited with the saving of more than 200 lives. These four — Alexander D. Goode, a Jewish rabbi, John P. Washington, a Roman Catholic priest, and Clark V. Polling and George L. Fox, two Protestant ministers — issued life-belts to American servicemen aboard the troop transport after it was torpedoed on Feb. 3, 1943. When the supply of life preservers ran out, the four chaplins gave their own life-belts to four soldiers and then stood calmly on the sinking ship and bowed their heads in prayer. Inspired by the deed of these four chaplins, the American Legion marks the anniversary each year with special services and programs throughout the country. This annual observance, as part of the legion’s “Service to God and Country” program, helps bring new emphasis to the religious aspects of American heritage.

That’s the message coming from many Democrats and a handful of Senate Republicans — foremost amongst them Tennessee’s Bob Corker, who joined with Connecticut Democrat Chris Murphy to propose increasing the levy by 12 cents over two years and indexing it to inflation. Other members of the GOP — Sen. John Thune of South Dakota and Sen. James Inhofe of Oklahoma, for instance — have refused to rule out such a proposal. We’re not unsympathetic to the underlying concern in this case. The federal gas tax — currently 18.4 cents per gallon — hasn’t been raised since 1993. That’s salient because the revenue from the tax goes to finance the Highway Trust Fund, the mechanism by which the feds fund transportation infrastructure projects. Without a doubt, these kinds of expenditures represent a legitimate use of public money. Equally unquestionable is that there are serious problems besetting the fund. Current estimates have it facing a shortfall of $160 billion over the next decade. Moreover, much of the country’s infrastructure is in dire need of a facelift. However, this is more than a question of simple economics. It’s a question as to how best to organize public finance. We believe that federal money ought only to be spent for truly federal purposes. On that front, the Highway Trust Fund falls short. Originally organized to finance the Interstate Highway System — a genuinely federal project if ever there was one — the fund now suffers from severe mission creep. About a quarter of its revenues aren’t even spent on highway projects, going, instead, to decidedly local concerns like mass transit or bicycle paths. According to congressional testimony from the Cato Institute’s Chris Edwards, that spending adds up to about $9 billion a year. As John Marshall observed, “the power to tax is the power to destroy.” That’s why we regard any proposal for higher levies with caution. We believe that tax increases are only ever justified when the federal government can prove three things: 1) That it is only spending public money on legitimate public purposes; 2) that it is not spending public money on tasks better left to state and local governments; and 3) that it is spending public money efficiently. The Highway Trust Fund fails on all three counts. Washington should tighten its belt and devolve financial responsibility for non-national projects back to state and local governments before taking more money out of taxpayers’ pockets. We pay enough at the pump without having to subsidize Congress’ incompetence. Reprinted from the Orange County Register.

We aren’t the kind of people who The practical case is, as he said hold enemy combatants during wartime? As a general proposition, this is false and nonsensical, and Gitmo in particular by now is more than a blip. It has been open since 2002. It still houses more than 100 detainees, and congressional majorities repeatedly have thrown up obstacles to closing it. If the sin of Gitmo is holding enemy combatants without trial, that is going to happen no matter what. Even Obama’s own task force to study Gitmo several years ago concluded that, at that time, there were 48 detainees “too dangerous to transfer but not feasible for prosecution.” If, as the administration prefers, these type of detainees go to Fort Leavenworth, then that prison would merely become the next alleged stain on American honor. The reason to keep Gitmo open is that we can’t trust other countries to hold the worst of the worst. The rough recidivism rate of all detainees released from Gitmo so far is 30 percent. A risk of bringing them here to be jailed is that judges, prone to imposing their policy preferences, will find a way to order their release. In 2013, Obama called Gitmo “a symbol around the world for an America that flouts the rule of law.” Maybe it would be less so if the president of the United States didn’t partake of the cheap moral umbrage over it.

Kole Associated Press BOSTON — Boston bounced back quickly Wednesday from the Blizzard of 2015, with subways, buses and trains up and running again the morning after the storm buried a swath of New England in 2 to 3 feet of snow. Many businesses reopened, as did Logan Airport, and homeowners, motorists and storekeepers dug out with grudging praise for the forecasters, who missed the mark in New York but got it right in New England. Chris Laudani, a Boston bartender, became an instant symbol of the city’s resilience for shoveling snow off the yellow and blue Boston Marathon finish line on Boylston Street, where the 2013 terrorist bombing killed three people and wounded more than 260. “For someone to brave the blizzard to clear our finish line for us is yet another statement as to what our event means not only to runners but also to Americans,” said Tom Grilk, executive director of the Boston Athletic Association, which oversees the marathon. Meteorologists had warned that Boston would get more than 2 feet of snow by Tuesday night, and the National Weather Service said the city ended up with 24.4 inches, the sixth-highest total on record. Other areas received around 2 to 3 feet, pretty much as predicted. “They actually got it right,” James Hansen said as he cleared a Boston sidewalk. There was no gloating among the forecasters themselves, who just seemed relieved they were on the money. Pointing up the guesswork factor, the weather team at Boston’s WHDH-TV tweeted a photo of the office “snow pool,” with pre-storm predictions ranging from 22 to 25.5 inches. As the storm gathered earlier in the week, forecasters had warned that Philadelphia, New York and New Jersey could get 1 to 2 feet of snow. But in the end, they didn’t even see a foot. With snow removal in Boston well underway, commuters high-stepped their way through a warren of snowy paths and towering snowbanks that gave the capital an almost alpine feel. Still, bitter cold threatened to complicate efforts to clear clogged streets and restore power. Forecasters warned that it won’t get above freezing in Boston for a week, and several more inches of snow are expected Friday and again over the weekend. Ryan Coleman could be considering the race.

The flare-up, which also left a U.N. peacekeeper dead and seven soldiers wounded, adds to the regional chaos brought on by neighboring Syria’s civil war. Hezbollah indicated the attack was in retaliation for a deadly Israeli strike on its fighters inside Syria earlier this month. The violence sparked fears in both countries of yet another crippling war between the two foes. Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned Israel would respond “forcefully,” and the military fired artillery shell barrages that struck border villages in southern Lebanon. Hezbollah responded with rocket fire on Israeli military positions in an exchange of fire that lasted for hours. The Israeli military said five anti-tank missiles hit the soldiers as they were traveling near Mount Dov and Chebaa Farms, along a disputed tract of land where the borders of Israel, Lebanon and Syria meet. The soldiers were in two unarmored white vehicles without military insignia when they were struck from a distance of about three miles (five kilometers) away, according to geous in her statement. “Abortion is a complex and deeply personal issue, and Congressman Ryan’s journey is not unusual,” said Cecile Richards. “(He) joins the overwhelming majority of Americans who want women to have access to abortion and don’t want politicians to interfere in women’s personal medical decisions.” Ryan said he’s never faced any pressure on either side of the abortion issue to change his position, even when he got kicked out of an anti-abortion Democratic coalition because of his position in favor of contraceptive access. His blue-collar district is solidly Democratic. “It’s not an issue that comes up really at all back home in my congressional district,” he said. “I mean, we talk about jobs and economic development and kind of breadand-butter issues that most people are focused on right now. This isn’t the top of many people’s lists really.” Gili Eliyahu, Jinipix | AP Israeli soldiers treat a wounded soldier near the Israel-Lebanon border Wednesday after a missile fired by the Lebanese Hezbollah group struck an Israeli military convoy. Two soldiers died in the apparent retaliation for a deadly airstrike attributed to Israel that killed many Hezbollah fighters in Syria earlier this month. The violence was the deadliest Hezbollah attack on Israel since a 2006 war between the two sides Lt. Col. Peter Lerner, an Israeli military spokesman. Israeli media aired footage showing the charred, smoldering vehicles after the strike. The dead soldiers were identified as Capt. Yochai Kalangel, 25, and Sgt. Dor Chaim Nini, 20. Seven other soldiers were wounded, the military said. In Washington, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki condemned the Hezbollah attack and expressed support for Israel’s “legitimate right to self-defense.” Hezbollah said the operation was carried out by a group calling itself the “Righteous Martyrs of Quneitra,” suggesting it was to avenge an Israeli airstrike in the Syrian portion of the Golan Heights on Jan. 18 that killed six Hezbollah fighters, including the son of the group’s slain military commander, Imad Mughniyeh, and an Iranian general. Israel has braced for a response to that strike, beefing up its air defenses and increasing surveillance along its northern frontier. “Whoever stands behind today’s attack will pay the price in full,” a statement from Netanyahu’s office quoted him as saying. Netanyahu said that Iran, through Hezbollah, was working to establish a base in southern Syria from which to launch attacks against Israel. “We are working resolutely and responsibly against this attempt,” he said. He said Syrian President Bashar Assad and the Lebanese government shared the blame for attacks against Israel emanating from their territory. Despite the strong words, however, the Israeli premier is unlikely to want to get mired in a messy and costly conflagration ahead of his re-election bid on March 17, with Israelis weary following a year that brought both the 50-day Gaza war and a spike in deadly attacks by Palestinians. Still, he may want to show voters that he has stood up to Hezbollah and restored the deterrence forged after the 2006 war. About an hour after the initial attack, mortars were fired at several Israeli military positions in the border area and on Mount Hermon in the Israelicontrolled Golan Heights, causing no injuries, the Israeli military said. The military said it responded with fire toward Lebanese positions, and evacuated Israeli visitors from a ski resort in the area.

On December 12 the South Gallia boys basketball team squeaked out a three-point road win over Federal Hocking, but the Lancers earned some payback Tuesday night as they claimed a 59-57 Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division victory in Gallia County. Federal Hocking (8-6, 6-3 TVC Hocking) held a narrow 15-14 lead at the end of the first quarter and the Lancers pushed the advantage to 33-25 at halftime. South Gallia (10-5, 8-2) cut the deficit to 46-40 by the end of the third canto, thanks in part to 11 points by senior Brayden Greer. SGHS posted 17 points over the final eight minutes, but came up just short as the Maroon and Gold claimed the 59-57 triumph and their fourth straight win. Greer led the hosts with 26 points, followed by Landon Hutchinson with 13 and Joseph Ehman with 12. Cory Rhodes and Kane Hutchinson each marked three points to round out the SGHS scoring. The Rebels hit 11-of17 free throws in the game, equaling 64.7 percent. Jonathan Snyder led Federal Hocking with 24 points, followed by Taylor Gates with 13 and Ivan Santiago with eight.

Both the Bison (1-13) and host Wildcats (3-11) shot 40 percent from the field overall, but Buffalo produced 30 extra shot attempts by outrebounding HHS by an 18-7 margin on the offensive glass while also committing 20 fewer turnovers. Those extra chances ultimately paid off over the course of 32 minutes, as BHS led by at least two possessions over the final 24:32 of regulation. Hannan finished the night with 30 turnovers, compared to only 10 by the guests. There were two ties and four lead changes in the contest, all of which came in the first seven minutes of play. The Bison stormed out to early leads of 2-0 and 4-2, but Corey Hudnall capped a quick 5-0 run with a trifecta that gave the hosts a 7-4 edge at the 5:29 mark. The Wildcats hit five of their first six shot attempts while increasing the lead out to 14-8 with 3:24 remaining, but the hosts went scoreless during the remainder of the period and finished the opening eight minutes with 10 turnovers. Buffalo capitalized by a making a 15-0 charge to end the quarter, which included taking a permanent lead at 15-14 following a Ty Smith basket with 1:37 left. BHS finished the stanza with a buzzer-beating three-pointer by Devin Rich, which gave the guests a 23-14 advantage after one quarter of action. The Wildcats responded with a quick 5-3 run out of the second period gate to make it a 26-19 contest, but the guests answered with 16-8 charge over five minutes to claim its biggest lead of the half at 42-27 with 46 seconds left. Hudnall netted a basket with 27 ticks remaining, which wrapped up the first half scoring at 42-29. Hannan netted 10-of-19 shot attempts in the first half for 53 percent, but the hosts were plagued by 14 turnovers and were outrebounded 17-11 in the first half, which included an 8-1 deficit on the offensive glass. Buffalo, conversely, committed just two turnovers and sank 15-of-37 field goal tries for 41 percent, despite a 1-of-12 effort to start the second canto. The Wildcats went on a 13-6 charge over the opening four minutes of the second half, allowing the hosts to close to within 48-42 with 4:07 remaining in the third. Buffalo rallied with five straight points to go back up by double digits, but HHS answered with an 8-3 run to again pull to within six at 56-50 with 13 seconds remaining. Nicholas Whittington canned a trifecta just before the third quarter horn sounded, which allowed the guests to secure a 59-50 edge headed into the finale. Adam Wilson hit the opening basket of the fourth quarter just 14 seconds in, which allowed Hannan to whittle the lead back down to seven at 59-52. The hosts, however, were never closer the rest of the way. The Bison went on a 15-2 run over the next four minutes for a 74-54 lead, then ultimately led by as many as 24 points on three separate occasions down the stretch — which included the final margin of victory. The Wildcats connected on 19-of-48 field goal attempts overall, which included a 7-of22 effort from three-point range for 32 percent. The hosts were also outrebounded by a 40-33 overall margin and committed eight turnovers each in the final two periods. Hudnall led HHS with 20 points, followed by Tyler Burns with 18 points and Malachi Cade with 13 markers. Wilson was next with five points, while Josh McCoy and Nathan McQueen rounded out the tally with two markers apiece. Burns led Hannan with seven rebounds, while Cade and Wilson each hauled in six caroms. The Cats were 15-of-21 at the free throw line for 71 percent. Buffalo sank 31-of-78 shot attempts overall, including a 7-of-16 effort from behind the arc for 44 percent. The guests were also 15-of-24 at the charity stripe for 63 percent. Austin Hensley paced the Bison with a game-high 23 points, followed by Rich with 15 points and Tyler Molachetta with 10 markers. Nathan Casto was next with nine points, while Whittington and Smith respectively chipped in eight and seven markers. Jacob Easton and Austin Starcher each chipped in four points, while Logan Hunt and Dillon Williams rounded out the scoring with two markers CLASSIFIEDS The Daily Sentinel Bryan Walters | OVP Sports Hannan senior Adam Wilson, right, is trapped by a pair of Buffalo defenders during the first half of Tuesday night’s boys basketball contest in Ashton, W.Va. apiece.
