While the figure is only a temporary evaluation of what the district will need for operational expenses, it is considerable down from the final revised permanent appropriations (actual expenditures) for the past fiscal year 2012-13 which totaled $27,742,627. CFO-Treasurer Mark Rhonemus explained that temporary appropriations are always subject to change and cited as an example the reduction of last fiscal year’s temporary appropriations figure in the final analysis because medical claims were less than had been expected. During the meeting an instructor for a new tech prep program being started at Meigs High School was hired. Employed as the instructor for the Public Safety/Criminal Justice Career — TechWorkforce Development Program on a one-year contract was Ricky J. Smith.

Grange opposed to proposed local Army maneuvers RACINE — Opposition to the proposed military maneuvers of the U.S. Army at the Meigs County fairgrounds in 2015 were expressed at a recent meeting of Racine Grange. The legislative agent gave information to the members of the proposed military maneuvers which will require permission of several entities including the Meigs County Commission. It was reported that the Army will be offering free medical care to local residents as an inducement to get the permission they need. As a response to the request, it was stated in a report on the meeting from Keith Ashley, ” that the Grange members could not find a reason as to what Meigs County had unique to offer the U.S. Army. As the Army has many bases to conduct ma- neuvers, members thought that the population must have some reason for the Army to come here. Members felt that the only military that had a reason to be in Meigs County would be the National Guard since the Army’s job is to defend the country.” He continued that members feared, “that the Army might attempt to create a local emergency to experiment using military law.” In response to the information, members unanimously adopted a resolution asking the Meigs County Commission to deny the Army the permission to use the fairgrounds. The resolution will be sent to the Commission. A discussion was held on the State of Ohio considering assigning electoral votes to Congressional districts rather than the current winner-takes-all situation was held. It was reported that the members felt that the intent of the framers of the Constitution was to use the electoral system to balance state power with federal government power. Also, it was pointed out that Congressional districts have no empowered legislative body like the state does. Members voted to send a resolution to the state representative and senator opposing any change in the electoral vote allotment. With the recent report that the U.S. Postal Service may sue Lance Armstrong for the $20 million given him for support of his cycling career, members expressed concern at the use of money in this way when the service is currently in financial hardship. The members voted to send a resolution to the government opposing the sponsorship of individuals or events. Congress is currently looking at allowing states to tax internet sales on the basis that failure to tax the sales is an unfair advantage to store sales. It was reported that members of the grange felt that the lack of taxation on internet sales was balanced by the need to charge for shipping costs. Also, it was noted that the U.S. Constitution prohibits states to tax interstate trade. This position will be sent to the Congressmen of Ohio. Nita Yost reported that Emma Ashley received second in the county in the scones contest, Hannah Yost won the youth fudge contest, and Oliva Yost won the junior brownies contest. The Grange is continuing to collect pop tabs, batteries, food coupons, soup labels, and box tops for community service. Plans on remodeling the hall were discussed. A sign designating Oak Grove on the Oak Grove Road has been acquired and now permission to place the sign is needed from the land owner. It was noted that Keith and Emma Ashley will be participating in the Ohio State Grange bus tour to Itasca, Minn. where the farm of the father of the Grange, Oliver Hudson Kelley is located. The National Grange will be having a demonstration of the original degree work of 1867 done by Grange youth throughout the country. John Easterday was reported ill and a card was signed for him. The lecturer’s program included a humorous list of excuses written by parents for absentee school children.

In Mathematics, the number Pi is the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter which for all practical purposes is 3.14, but it’s also a number that never ends, with endless calculations and possibilities – much like a good idea. A good idea has those endless possibilities and now local good ideas will have access to resources which can transform the good to the great at the Pi Factory, located at 300 Second Ave. in Gallipolis, inside the old Bernadine’s store which has recently been renovated. Walking into the Pi Factory, visitors are greeted by huge portraits of innovators like Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg. Just past these familiar faces is a large, open area big enough for 10 companies and 10 great ideas to set up shop at any given time, working with resources provided by BTS to launch innovative ideas into reality. Currently, there are three companies already benefiting from the Pi Factory’s BTS resources which include Social Boaster, operated by Bryan Blair. Social Boaster is a business which manages the social networking sites of companies which simply don’t have the time or staff to manage their presence, and promotions, on social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter and others. Not only does Social Boaster manage the content for a company’s social media pages but, according to staff at the Pi Factory, Social Boaster also has techniques to gain “extreme” numbers of subscribers and can have a customer’s promotions show up in the newsfeed of individuals that may not currently be subscribers. “Having a large social media presence is a necessity for most small businesses to thrive in our current environment. I have seen Social Boaster add hundreds of ‘likes’ to a business’s Facebook page in a single day,” BTS Executive Vice President, Brian Ratliff said. Social Boaster currently has eight clients, some local, some in the Columbus area - ser- vices start as low as $50 per month. Then there’s NOMO Receipts which is working to eliminate paper receipts by converting them into a digital paper trail which in turn allows consumers to track and analyze their spending habits. GC Media also has a spot at the Pi Factory and is promoting a unique website that links up bands with venues in a type of reverse auction. Ratliff said all approved Pi Factory projects and their entrepreneurs will commit to spending three months and 14 days (the number Pi) at the factory in Gallipolis developing their idea. At the end of this development stage, which can include support from BTS software engineers and business professionals, an evaluation will be held and if the project is progressing, these entrepreneurs may be matched with venture capital firms for possible funding – this is the vision of the Pi Factory. Those interested in being considered for a slot at the Pi Factory should Google a basic business plan template, fill in the blanks and submit it to Pi Factory staff for evaluation at Pifactory@bts-s2.com. Ratliff said the goal is to eventually open up the Pi Factory to a national audience and application process but again – all those applicants would spend three months and 14 days in Gallipolis, developing their ideas and therefore contributing to the local culture and economy. Ratliff explained the Pi Factory is about fostering ideas and creating a culture for technology to grow locally as well as attract professionals in the high-tech field to Gallipolis. “BTS values the growth of the community of Gallipolis and has put, and will continue to put, tremendous resources into helping businesses grow in the area,” Ratliff said. Ratliff added he believes providing resources for innovations in locally developed technology is an area which is extremely “underserved” amongst a culture with great ideas in need of a home and support.

You can- Christian prayer in our schools used to convey a sense of peace to the students and promote a proper self-esteem in the students. But, consider the turbulent and violent events in recent years inside our schools with our children. Government and Christianity-despisers have ruined a practice for good in our schools. I have wondered why there is so much general opposition against Christianity — period. After all, it is from the Word of God that Christians are taught to practice racial equality. It is from the Word of God that Church people are taught to be obedient to the ordinances of government, to pray for governmental leaders, and that we should pay our taxes. The Bible of true Christianity promotes model citizenship. Seems to me that what many people see wrong with Christianity is detrimental and counterproductive. “In the last days, perilous times will come, for men shall be … despisers of those that are good.” Well, in the meantime, the Hawaiians and I believe Spam is a delicious food product. As a matter of fact, the Hawaiians consider Spam to be a delicacy. I learned this fact while recently watching Channel 48 one evening. I called all the family into the den so they could see for themselves. Hawaiians eat Spam with everything, on everything, and in everything. Micaiah merely observed, “Well, Dad, that does not mean that you should eat the stuff.” He might be right, but I do anyhow. You like Spam? Search the Scriptures ‘These were more noble … they searched the scriptures daily…’ People sometimes say, concerning Christ, that “wise men still seek Him.” They are referencing Matthew 2, where we read, “Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, saying, “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him.” (Matthew 2:1-2) As these wise men inquired of the location of the Christ, they were pointed to God’s word and were thus able to find that which they sought. (cf. Matthew 2:5-6) Finding Jesus, they worshiped Him and honored Him, and were subsequently blessed with a message from God (cf. Matthew 2:11-12). It is worthwhile to note that the ultimate reward of the wise men was not in the seeking, but in the finding. Jesus promises, “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” (Matthew 7:7) This is a comforting promise but we should understand what it actually means for us. Jesus later promised that, concerning life, “narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.” (Matthew 7:14) And we should note that there are, in fact, those who seek for Christ but they never actually find Him. Sometimes these individuals are seeking Christ for the wrong reasons. Consider Herod who sought for Christ because he wanted to kill the young baby. (cf. Matthew 2:16) God thwarted him because his motivations were wicked and we should trust God will not reward us if we also seek Christ for the wrong reasons. Others seek for Christ in the wrong way or look in all the wrong places. They too should expect no reward. The wise man seeks for Christ and, in fulfillment of the words of Christ, subsequently finds Him, because he seeks for the right reasons, in the right way, and in the right places. Let us therefore resolve for ourselves to seek for Christ in the right places: those places where He is actually to be found. We will not find Jesus in the manger, where many still seem to seek for Him, for He long ago grew up. Indeed, even the Wise Men did not find Jesus in the manger, for He had left that place and He and His family were living in a home in Bethlehem (cf. Matthew 2:9-11). If the wise men had ignored the directions of God and sought for Jesus in the stable and the manger, they would still be looking! Likewise, we will not find Jesus on the cross, or in the tomb, for the death He died, He died once, but the life He lives now is eternal in the heavens (cf. Romans 6:10; Hebrews 7:26-28). His tomb stood empty on the Sunday after His death, and He did not go back into it, but ascended on high. We will also not find Jesus in man-made churches which reject His teachings and are likewise rejected by Him. We must seek for Jesus where He is. We can read the account of Jesus in God’s word and we, like the wise men, should look therein for directions. But the Word of God will point us to the church of our Lord, among whom Jesus walks today (cf. Matthew 18:20), and towards Heaven, where Jesus sits at the throne of God, awaiting to take the faithful there (cf. John 14:1-4). Let us resolve for ourselves to seek for Christ in the right way: the way He has told us to seek. Many seem to think they can follow Christ, or serve Christ, according to their own desires and their own doctrines, and Jesus will accept their search and reward them. But such thoughts are wrong and wrongheaded (cf. Colossians 2:21-23; Proverbs 14:12). Jesus has told us how to find Him. We must abide in His words (cf. 1 John 3:22). We must be baptized into His death (cf. Romans 6:23; Acts 2:38). We must be faithful to Christ and to His gospel, even to the point of death (cf. Revelation 2:10). Jesus asked men why they bothered to call Him Lord if they never actually followed His teachings (cf. Luke 6:46). Likewise, if we today wish to be followers of Christ that we might reach that heavenly home where he is, then as we study His words, we must obey them. This is the secret to finding Christ. Finally, but not least, let us make sure that we understand why we want to find Christ. What Jesus offers us is forgiveness of sins, through repentance and baptism into His death (cf. Luke 13:3, Acts 2:38). Jesus offers us a home in heaven after the tribulations of this life are over. Jesus offers us a peace with God that the world and those lost in the world can never know (cf. Colossians 3:15; John 14:27). If these are things you desire, then seek for Jesus as one wise. Study His Word and be joined to His people so that one day you might have a home in Heaven where He waits, even now, for those who are seeking Him in truth. If you would like to study and worship with the Lord’s church, we invite you to visit the church of Christ, 197 Chapel Dr., Gallipolis.

The Budget Conference Committee made several unprecedented changes that were not properly vetted. House Bill 59 passed out of the Senate chambers by a party line vote of 21-11. This budget will raise taxes on seniors, homeowners, and small businesses. “In this budget, communities, public education, and job creation were not a top priority for the Senate Majority,” Gentile stated. “The House and Senate Republicans new tax plan gives the wealthiest in Ohio tax cuts at the expense of everyone else. The burden is being shifted to Ohio’s most vulnerable populations and the Majority failed to provide the resources our schools and communities desperately need. Instead of fixing the problem, this plan hurts senior citizens, small business owners, and is unfair to the working families in Eastern and Southeastern Ohio.” The Conference Committee made last minute changes concerning a broad tax restructuring package and a handful of education issues. The Republican tax plan will award Ohio’s most affluent with average annual tax cuts of more than $6,000 a year, while low- and moderate-income Ohioans will pay slightly more. The Re- publican tax plan will also hurt local communities by making it harder to pass future levies because of the elimination of the property tax rollback. “I offered an alternative to this tax plan multiple times during this budget process which would have stimulated the economy and created and saved jobs,” Senator Gentile said. “During the Senate budget debate I presented amendments several times to restore $396 million to the Local Government Fund to alleviate the funding challenges our struggling communities are facing. There is already a burden on property owners for funding education and basic public services and I fear that it will be made even more disproportionate by this budget.” Currently, seniors age 65 or older qualify for the homestead exemption, shielding $25,000 of the market value of their home from property taxation. Under the new tax plan, those who are not yet 65 and who earn more than $30,000 annually, will no longer qualify for the homestead exemption. This was the threshold before eligibility was expanded in 2007. “I’m deeply concerned about how this will impact struggling seniors in my district who are already on a fixed income,” Gentile stated. “As the cost of living increases, the homestead exemption would have provided valuable property tax relief. However, many seniors in my district will no longer be eligible for this exemption.” “Budgets are about priorities,” stated Senator Gentile. “Rather than invest in education, strong communities, and health care, this General Assembly chose to cut taxes for very few at the expense of all Ohioans. It is unconscionable that Ohio is sitting on a $2 billion dollar Senator Lou Gentile surplus while communities are forced to make lay-offs and are struggling to pro- in the legislative process. “There are complex vide basic public services.” Senator Gentile also issues that will have expressed concern about dramatic effects on our the lack of input citizens state’s economy,” he said. had in the final budget “To make such sweeping bill.

It is heavier than air and lighter than water, so it floats on the water’s surface. Early symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning include eye irritation, headache, nausea, weakness and dizziness. Knowing these signs and what to do to prevent them can help you stay alive. Install and maintain carbon monoxide detectors on and inside your boat. Maintain a fresh circulation of air through and around your boat at all times. Avoid areas of your boat where exhaust fumes may be present. Do not let those you love swim under or around the boarding platform because this silent killer could be waiting for them and they will not even know it before it is too late.

While on or near the water watch your children at all times. It only takes 20 seconds for a child to drown. National Water Safety Program Manager for the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers Pam Doty stated, “Usually people believe that if someone is drowning they will yell for help and that is not the case at all. Several people drown every year within 10 feet of safety because the people around them did not recognize the signs of drowning. ”This is because the four signs of a drowning victim can resemble someone just playing in the water. They include head back, mouth open gasping for air, no yelling or sound, and arms slapping the water like they are trying to climb out of the water. Properly rescuing someone should never include contact with them unless you are a trained lifeguard. Reach out to the victim with something to keep your distance or throw them something that floats to pull them to safety. Boaters or those swimming near boats should be aware that carbon monoxide is an odorless, invisible, and silent killer. $10 tors,” said Dr. Jon A.

Sessions to train selected West Virginia teachers will be held this summer. The trained teachers will pilot the new courses during the upcoming school year and next summer will help train teachers from other states. Dr. Wael Zatar, dean of Marshall’s College of Information Technology and Engineering, said the cooperative project is testament to the quality of the university’s engineering faculty. “The fact that our college was selected by SREB to help implement this program in West Virginia speaks volumes about our faculty, their skills and their dedication to helping students learn at all levels,” he said. “Work force development is at the heart of everything we do and this new curriculum will play a vital role in preparing high school students to continue their educations and contribute to our state’s economic future.” West Virginia Superintendent of Schools James B. Phares said, “We welcome the opportunity to be part of this partnership with Marshall University and the SREB. This project promises to increase the level of engagement, motivation and effort for many students, while meeting a growing work force need in West Virginia, where energy and power play an important role in our economy. We look forward to sharing our work with other states in the Advanced Career consortium in the future.” Dr. Gayle Ormiston, provost and senior vice president for academic affairs at Marshall, congratulated Begley and Zatar, saying, “We are pleased to be part of this important cooperative program with SREB and the West Virginia Department of Education. Thank you to Dr. Begley and Dean Zatar for their leadership. The hands-on approach of the Advanced Career program is perfectly suited to the style of teaching and learning we embrace here at Marshall.” The Atlanta-based Southern Regional Education Board is a non-profit organization dedicated to improving public education in its 16 member states.

As part of SREB’s Advanced Career program, faculty members from Marshall’s College of Information Technology and Engineering are working with the West Virginia Department of Education to launch a sequence of four courses intended to increase the number of students who leave high school prepared for further study, advanced training and careers in energy and power. Engineering professor Dr. Richard Begley, who is directing the project at Marshall, said the field of energy and power was selected for the project because of its importance to West Virginia’s economy. The project is one of several similar initiatives SREB is developing in partnership with its member states. “The Advanced Career program focuses on high-wage, skilled fields important to the participating state’s economy,” Begley added. “The goal is to deliver courses that start students down the path toward a recognized industry certificate, a community/technical college certificate, or an associate or bachelor’s degree in that field.” According to Begley, the new courses were designed by teams from universities and high schools in partnership with industry experts. The curriculum incorporates a hands-on approach with experiments that use energy and power measurement instruments, data software and computer simulations. Participating students will learn to apply mathematical and scientific concepts, and will use technology and engineering to solve realworld problems found in the energy and power industry. SREB Senior Vice President Gene Bottoms said, “This is what modern career-tech education looks like. Because the aim is to graduate more students with more options, the program is available to any and all mainstream students. It flips the switch for those students who aren’t sparked by traditional teaching styles and gives them a new way to learn. It’s a path we must take to not only graduate more students, but to prepare them for what comes after high school.” HUNTINGTON, W. Va. — Drowning is a leading cause of accidental death, yet the number of deaths by drowning could be reduced drastically if everyone would wear a life jacket. Statistics show that 89 percent of those who drown at U. S. Army Corps of Engineers lakes and rivers may have survived if they had worn a life jacket. Here are some safety tips to help you have a safe and enjoyable Fourth of July holiday. Swimming in open water is different and more difficult than in a swimming pool. You can tire more quickly and get into trouble due to waves, current, lack of experience, exhaustion or your abilities have decreased. You could find yourself in a situation where you are fighting for your life with no chance of survival. Even the best swimmers can misjudge their skills and abilities while swimming in a lake or river. Conditions can change quickly in open water, so before entering the water, please wear a life jacket. While wearing a life jacket you will not use as much energy, it will help you float and most importantly it will help ensure that you return home alive to those who love you.

Senators: Student loan interest rates to double WASHINGTON (AP) — Student loan rates will double Monday — at least for a while — after a compromise to keep student loan interest rates low proved unwinnable before the July 1 deadline, senators said Thursday. Sen. Tom Harkin, the chairman of the Senate education panel, said none of the proposals being circulating among lawmakers could win passage, and he urged lawmakers to extend the current rates for another year when they return from the July 4 recess. Harkin said his colleagues could retroactively restore the current rates after the holiday. “Let’s put this off for a year,” Harkin, D-Iowa, told reporters. Interest rates on new subsidized Stafford loans are set to go from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent on Monday unless lawmakers take action. Congress’ Joint Economic Committee estimates the increase will cost the average student $2,600. “Neither party wants to see rates rise next week,” said Sen. Richard Burr, R-N.C. But a one-year rate extension isn’t an acceptable option, either, he said. “Last year we kicked the can down the road and passed a one-year extension for only a small group of students. … Why would we make the same mistake again and just kick the can down the road another year?” said Burr, who was among a group of senators who worked on a competing proposal with Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va. The Manchin-led proposal would link interest rates to the financial markets. It borrowed heavily from a version House Republicans passed earlier and from principles included in President Barack Obama’s budget proposal. Critics called it a baitand-switch move that would provide students lower interest rates at first before they climb upward as the economy improves. “Students across this country would rather have no deal than a bad deal,” said Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I. “We’re at the point where we have to do our best to extend the 3.4 percent interest rate while we work on a good deal, not just any deal.” Republicans blamed Democrats and said they would be responsible for the expected rate hike. “As a result of their obstruction, the Democratled Senate will leave town and allow interest rates on some new student loans to increase on Monday,” said Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell. “Senate Democrats continue to block reform and insist on kicking the can down the road.” Republicans also noted the Manchin-led proposal had many similarities with Obama’s, including a link between 10-year Treasury notes and student rates. “This agreement is very much like the proposal in the president’s budget, it is very much like the proposal passed by the Republican House of Representatives and it will save billions of dollars in interest for all 11 million students taking out loans this year by dropping rates on all student loans,” said Tennessee Sen. Lamar Alexander, the top Republican on the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee. Alexander, a former education secretary, called Harkin’s proposal “a shortterm, political fix.” “That’s no fix at all when we have a plan to help all students that we can pass quickly,” he added. Nothing was happening — quickly or not — before July 1, meaning students who take loans would face higher rates. Senators were heading out of town without a deal, and Harkin said his colleagues would consider a retroactive fix on July 10. “I think we are nowhere between now and July 1,” said Rep. George Miller of California, the top Democrat on the House Education and the Workforce Committee. “It sounds to me like the Senate is going to leave town without dealing with this.” But Democrats promised to turn back to them when they get back to Washington, first with a short-term fix and then a longer-range measure. The law that governs college and universities expires this fall and lawmakers planned to rewrite it starting in September. Democrats said they prefer to include a comprehensive student loan measure in it, rather than as a standalone bill. “We need a one-year patch to keep interest rates from doubling on student loans,” said Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass. “That buys us the time.” DAKAR, Senegal (AP) — Laying bare a clash of cultures, President Barack Obama on Thursday urged African leaders to extend equal rights to gays and lesbians but was bluntly rebuked by Senegal’s president, who said his country “still isn’t ready” to decriminalize homosexuality. Obama opened his weeklong trip to Africa one day after the U.S. Supreme Court expanded federal benefits for married gay couples. In his first in-person comments on the ruling, Obama said the court’s decision marked a “proud day for America.” He pressed for similar recognition for gays in Africa, wading into a sensitive area in a region where dozens of countries outlaw homosexuality and a few punish violations with death. “When it comes to how the state treats people, how the law treats people, I believe that everybody has to be treated equally,” Obama said during a news conference with Senegalese President Macky Sall at the grand presidential palace in Dakar. But Sall gave no ground. Senegal is “very tolerant,” he assured Obama, but is “still not ready to decriminalize homosexuality.” Sall said countries make decisions on complex issues in their own time, noting that Senegal has outlawed capital punishment while other countries have not — a pointed jab at the U.S., where the death penalty is legal in many states. Obama’s trip, which also includes stops in South Africa and Tanzania, marks the most extensive visit to Africa by the first black U.S. president since he took office. Many Africans have expressed disappointment over Obama’s lack of direct engagement with affairs on their continent — particularly given that his father was Kenyan and he has many relatives living in Africa — yet he was still enthusiastically welcomed. Thousands of people gathered on the roadways near the presidential palace as Obama’s motorcade sped through the coastal city, many in the crowds wearing white to symbolize peace. Some waved homemade signs welcoming Obama, while those gathered near the palace entrance sang and played drums, the rhythmic beats audible from inside the gates. At Goree Island, the former slave trading post Obama visited later Thursday, local residents waited under scorching sun for hours to catch a glimpse of the president. They sang a song about his return to his ancestral homeland and broke into jubilant cheers as Obama and first lady Michelle Obama walked over to shake hands. Looming over the festive atmosphere were concerns over former South African leader Nelson Mandela. Obama is due to arrive in South Africa on Friday, though Mandela’s precarious condition adds some uncertainty to the agenda. Obama spoke reverently about the impact that Mandela’s struggle against apartheid had on his own activism, as well as about the 94-year-old’s influence in Africa and around the world. “If and when he passes from this place, one thing I think we’ll all know is that his legacy is one that will linger on throughout the ages,” said Obama, who has sometimes been linked to Mandela given their shared status as their nations’ first black presidents. Mandela’s democratic influence in Africa is at the core of Obama’s trip. The three countries he will visit were selected as a signal of U.S. support for African nations that have embraced democracy in a region where the legacy of corruption and authoritarianism have been difficult to overcome. Sall, for example, won the presidency in Senegal last year by ousting an incumbent president who attempted to change the constitution to make it easier for him to be re-elected and for his son to succeed him. Africa’s democratic movements have not been accompanied in most places by equal rights for gays and lesbians. A report Monday by Amnesty International said 38 African countries criminalize homosexuality. In four of those — Mauritania, northern Nigeria, southern Somalia and Sudan — the punishment is death. Discrimination against gays is the norm. In Uganda, evictions of homosexuals by landlords occur regularly, says the Amnesty report. Vigilante groups in several countries have posted the names of homosexuals online or denounced them on the radio, forcing them to go into hiding to avoid mob violence. In Senegal, suspected homosexuals who were buried in Muslim cemeteries were disinterred in several towns and villages, and their corpses were dragged through the streets. On another subject, Obama was pressed in his news conference about the status of former government contractor Edward Snowden, who has acknowledged leaking highly classified documents detailing sweeping U.S. government surveillance programs. The Chinese government let Snowden leave Hong Kong, where he had been hiding, to travel to Russia, where he is now believed to be holed up in the transit zone at Moscow’s airport. Obama dismissed the notion of deploying U.S. military resources to detain Snowden, saying “I’m not going to be scrambling jets to get a 29-yearold hacker.” On still another topic, the president had harsh words for the Supreme Court on its ruling this week that overturned key elements of the Voting Rights Act. Obama declared the decision “a mistake.” “I might not be here as president had it not been for those who courageously helped to pass the Voting Rights Act,” Obama said. The president is being accompanied throughout his trip by wife, daughters Malia and Sasha, and mother-in-law Marian Robinson. Following the president’s meetings with Sall, the family boarded a ferry bound for Goree Island, which by some accounts was the center of the Atlantic slave trade. The Obamas were given a tour of the salmon-colored House of Slaves where Africans were held before being sold into slavery. The president then peered out into the vast Atlantic through the Door of No Return, where shackled men, women and children left Africa, inching across a plank to the hull of a waiting ship. Perry, filibuster star clash over Texas abortions the Texas Senate,” Perry said. “It’s just unfortunate that she hasn’t learned from her own example that every life must be given a chance to realize its full potential and that every life matters.” In comments to reporters afterward, he went even further, saying that he was glad Davis’ mother didn’t chose to have an abortion. “What if her mom had said, “I just can’t do this. I don’t want to do this,’” Perry said. “At that particular point in time I think it becomes very personal.” Davis starting working at 14 to help support a household of her single mother and three siblings. By 19, she was already married and divorced with a child of her own — but she eventually graduated with honors from Harvard Law School and won her senate seat in an upset. In an e-mailed statement Wednesday, Davis shot back: “Rick Perry’s statement is without dignity and tarnishes the high office he holds.” “They are small words that reflect a dark and negative point of view,” she said. “Our governor should reflect our Texas values. Sad- ly, Gov. Perry fails that test.” On Tuesday, Davis’ marathon speech and raucous outbursts from abortion rights protesters in the state Senate that kept lawmakers from approving sweeping restrictions that could make abortion all but impossible for many women in the second-largest state. Those efforts ran out the clock on the midnight deadline Tuesday to pass legislation during a special legislative session Perry called to tackle abortion and other key is- sues.

Larry Butler, an administrative law judge from Fort Myers, Fla., called the system “paying down the backlog.” A former Social Security judge, J.E. Sullivan, said, “The only thing that matters in the adjudication process is signing that final decision.” Sullivan is now an administrative law judge for the Department of Transportation. The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee is investigating why many judges have high approval rates for claims already rejected twice by field offices or state agencies. Two current and two former judges spoke at a subcommittee hearing. The number of people receiving Social Security disability benefits has increased by 44 percent over the past decade, pushing the trust fund that supports the program to the brink of insolvency. Social Security officials say the primary reason for the increase is a surge in baby boomers who are more prone to disability as they age. Deputy Social Security Commissioner Glenn Sklar noted that the vast majority of disability claims are initially denied. “I think the data kind of speaks for itself,” Sklar told lawmakers. To qualify for benefits, people are supposed to have disabilities that prevent them from working and are expected to last at least a year or result in death. According to Social Security data, there were errors in 22 percent of the cases decided in 2011, Sklar said. He said some errors were procedural and did not necessarily result in incorrect decisions. “The true wrong rate would be less than 10 percent,” Sklar said. Nearly 11 million disabled workers, spouses and children get Social Security disability benefits. That compares with 7.6 million a decade ago. The average monthly benefit for a disabled worker is $1,130. An additional 8.3 million people get Supplemental Security Income, a separately funded disability program for low-income people. Social Security disability claims are first processed through a network of local Social Security Administration field offices and state agencies called Disability Determination Services. About two-thirds of initial claims are rejected, according to agency statistics. Beth Sergent | Daily Sentinel A firefighter from the Point Pleasant Fire Department blocks traffic from entering Tu-Endie-Wei State Park where two witnesses reported seeing a body floating in the Ohio River on Wednesday night. So far a search of the area hasn’t turned up anything though emergency personnel are continuing to look and the Point Pleasant Police Department is investigating the case. Body From Page A1 ant Fire Department, with assistance from the Gallipolis Fire Department, dropped rescue boats into the water to search. In addition, troopers with the West Virginia State Police were on the scene to assist as were crews on two, nearby barges which helped shine search lights in the area. As darkness descended first responders had not only the darkness but rain to contend with, hindering visibility. The search was called off Wednesday night and resumed Thursday morning. As of Thursday evening, nothing had been found. Point Pleasant Fire Chief Jeremy Bryant said he and his firefighters would be out Friday and over the weekend to continue to search. Ross said it’s possible this could be a hoax but these reports have to be taken seriously so the search will continue, including investigating whether anyone who fits the description of the body had been reported missing. If anyone knows of anyone fitting that description, they should make a missing person’s report with the Point Pleasant Police Department by calling 304-675-1104. James and Deborah Harris, and neighbors said they were the boys’ maternal grandparents. The grandparents were very loving to the boys, Shirley Causey said. “They are just very sweet people,” she said. “They just loved those boys so much.” There was no suspicion that anyone else was involved, but any shooting must be treated as a potential homicide until investigation rules that out, Hawker said. He said full investigation results might not be known for six weeks or more. The boys were found Wednesday morning. Hawker said the grandparents had left the home to take care of some personal business but had talked to the boys by phone at about 10 a.m. It’s believed the shootings happened at about 11 a.m. Authorities didn’t release the grandparents’ names immediately. Jackson is a city of about 7,000 people in mostly rural Appalachian Ohio.

Shirley Causey, who said her grandson was a cousin and frequent playmate of the older boy, said Austin was “very protective” of his younger half brother. She described Austin as so polite that he wouldn’t get a drink or snack without asking her permission when visiting.

Hernandez is denied bail in Mass. murder case FALL RIVER, Mass. (AP) — A judge on Thursday denied bail for former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez, who is charged with first-degree murder in the shooting death of a friend. Hernandez’s lawyer argued that Hernandez is not a risk to flee and the case against him is circumstantial. But a prosecutor said the evidence is “overwhelming.” A search of a Hummer belonging to Hernandez turned up an ammunition clip matching the caliber of casings found at the scene of the killing of Odin Lloyd, the prosecutor said. Lloyd’s body was discovered by a jogger in a remote area of an industrial park not far from Hernandez’s home 10 days ago. He has pleaded not guilty. Prosecutors called Lloyd’s killing an execution-style shooting orchestrated by Hernandez because his friend talked to the wrong people at a nightclub. Hernandez could face life in prison, if convicted. Hernandez was cut from the NFL team less than two hours after he was arrested and led from his North Attleborough home in handcuffs, and nine days after Lloyd’s body was discovered. The 2011 Pro Bowl selection had signed a five-year contract last summer with the Patriots worth $40 million. Another man, Carlos Ortiz, 27, was arrested Wednesday in Hernandez’s hometown of Bristol, Conn., as part of the murder investigation, New Britain State’s Attorney Brian Preleski said Thursday. Ortiz was charged as a fugitive from justice and waived extradition to Massachusetts. Prison records show he is being held on $1.5 million bail at a Hartford jail. Ortiz’s public defender, Alfonzo Sirica, declined to comment about the case. In the meantime, police have been searching a thirdfloor unit in a condo complex in Franklin, Mass., that Hernandez had visited in recent weeks, according to the unit’s next-door neighbor.

OVP Story #2: Point’s Dynamic Duo Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com At the beginning of the school year, these two young men probably wouldn’t have been your first guesses to be in this spot — at least not with all the other returning state champions that Point Pleasant had coming back for the 2012-13 campaign in both wrestling and track. But that’s the real beauty of high school sports from year to year. You just never know what your going to get. PPHS seniors Trevor “Reno” Hill and Caleb Riffle each shocked the state — and maybe even themselves — by coming away with Point Pleasant’s only state titles this year during the Big Blacks’ return to Class AAA competition. Hill became the program’s 12th different state champion and 19th champion overall in wrestling, while Riffle knocked off renowned distance runner Jacob Burcham and the rest of the field to secure a track crown at Laidley Field. PPHS had won three straight Class AA-A team championships in wrestling before making the move up this season, and the Big Blacks responded by sending a dozen grapplers to the state tournament at Big Sandy Superstore Arena in downtown Huntington. But after two days of competition, only one wrestler found himself sitting in a division final with a perfect 3-0 mark. Hill, who had never advanced to a state final before this year, needed only to get through Nate Starkey of Ripley for the 170-pound title. Hill never trailed in the championship match, which he won by an 8-2 decision. The victory extended Point Pleasant’s individual state champion streak to nine consecutive years in wrestling while also helping the team finish sixth with a score of 101 points — both records for the program at the Class AAA level. Point Pleasant senior Caleb Riffle, middle wearing 455, completes the first of two laps in the Class AAA 800m final during the 2013 WVSSAC Track and Field Championships at Laidley Field in Charleston, W.Va. Hill also joined Alex Reed — Point’s first state champion in wrestling back in 1988 — as the only Class AAA champions in PPHS history. Hill was only one of five Big Black grapplers to reach the podium that weekend and was also the only Mason County wrestler to compete in a state final. For a senior in his final match, Hill was thrilled with the way he was leaving the PPHS program — on top of the podium. “Coach told me going into the match not tire myself out and work as hard as you can go,” Hill said. “I did exactly what he told me and what he has taught me all year, and it worked. It’s an unbelievable feeling to be a champion. It’s like standing on top of the world.” That euphoric feeling crossed over into the spring months when Riffle literally shocked the state by beating — arguably — West Virginia’s most-accomplished distance runner of alltime. Both Riffle and Jacob Burcham, a senior at Cabell-Midland, were preparing for their final prep See DUO ‌| B3 Reds shut down by Griffin, lose both games to A’s OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Cincinnati manager Dusty Baker acknowledged the challenge of coming to Oakland for a two-game interleague series against a club his players hardly knew. The Reds are plenty familiar with A.J. Griffin now, probably more so than they would like. Griffin tossed a two-hitter to lead Oakland to a 5-0 victory Wednesday, dropping the Reds to 1-4 on their eight-game road trip ahead another tough stop at Texas this weekend. “That’s the first time we’ve seen him and he was impressive. He was changing speeds, maybe a 20-22 mph differential on his fastball,” Baker said. “He had us eating out of his hand and chasing out of the strike zone.” No matter how good Homer Bailey was, the Reds missed far too many chances again. Devin Mesoraco singled with one out in the fifth for Cincinnati’s first hit. Xavier Paul added a two-out double in the seventh, but that was it for the Reds. “Everybody is going to have a streak like this. It didn’t matter because we didn’t score any runs,” Baker said. “You could, ‘Homer did this or did that’ but we had no chance, even if it was 1-0. Not only are we not scoring runs but we’re not getting any hits either. It’s not anything you want to do.” Griffin (6-6) struck out seven and walked two in a 108-pitch gem for his first career complete game. “He located the ball really well See REDS ‌| B2 �Page B2 • The Daily Sentinel www.mydailysentinel.com Friday, June 28, 2013 Reds From Page B1 and threw strikes when he needed. He caught a couple of breaks here and there but he threw a good game,” Paul said. “It was one of those days when our bats were pretty slow. Good teams find a way to bounce back and we’re a good team, so we’ll get back to playing like we’re capable.” Josh Donaldson hit a three-run homer to highlight a four-run fourth after hitting a two-run homer in Tuesday night’s 7-3 victory. The Reds lost for the fifth time in seven games and seventh in the last 11. Bailey (4-6) faced just two over the minimum through three innings, and then ran into trouble in the fourth. He struck out seven and walked two in six innings in losing his second straight decision. Oakland got four straight hits to start the fourth, taking a 1-0 lead on Moss’ double. Jed Lowrie was nearly caught at third by a sprinting Yoenis Cespedes, who held up as Lowrie ran home but missed the bag before reaching back to touch the plate as catcher Mesoraco lost the ball. “They had the two ground balls that went through, then the double and it happened so quick,” Bailey said. “They were all on breaking balls, but were just up a little. Those aren’t bad pitches early in the count. Maybe I should have thrown the (heck) out of my fastball. But they’re a good hitting team, with a good approach at the plate. They grind out at-bats.” Derrick Robinson and Joey Votto pulled off a double steal in the first to put runners on second and third, but Cincinnati missed more chances a day after stranding 11 baserunners. The Reds are scheduled to bring second baseman Brandon Phillips back from the paternity list Friday at Texas. “At least we’ll have Brandon back and he adds to the lineup,” Baker said. Baker even had his team hit an abbreviated batting practice after the night game because, “This park plays as different day and night as anywhere in the big leagues.” The tricky sun early and shadows late can be problematic. Donaldson experienced the glaring sun when the third baseman lost the ball on Paul’s foul popup in the fourth. But Griffin kept things tricky for the Reds himself, mixing his pitches and pounding the zone. “He did an excellent job today and worked the zone,” Donaldson said. “He made some really good hitters over there step back and rethink their approach a little bit.” Griffin had been 0-3 in five starts since winning at Houston on May 25. The shaggy-haired righthander was thrilled that nobody was warming up in the ninth, leaving it all up to him. “I was trying not to think about it because I was hoping I wasn’t going to blow it,” Griffin said. “Obviously, I get a little extra adrenaline going there.” NOTES: Griffin threw 73 of his pitches for strikes. … Cincinnati’s Shin-Soo Choo and Todd Frazier are each in 1-for15 funks. … The A’s raised $32,000 during their annual root beer float day for the Juvenile Research Diabetes Foundation.

Hernandez From Page B1 alized later that the second man he had referred to that way was the Patriots player. “I thought, ‘This is Aaron Hernandez. He’s renting a place here so he can have some peace and quiet,’” the retiree said Thursday. The Ledgewood Condominiums resident said she didn’t see the two men often, but Hernandez always had a hoodie pulled up when she saw him. “I think all of us who recognized who it was didn’t want to invade his privacy,” she said of neighbors. Bailey said she believed a black Hummer with expired, temporary Ohio tags that was parked at the complex was driven by someone in the condo. She said police towed away the Hummer on Wednesday. Lloyd, 27, a semi-pro football player with the Boston Bandits, had known Hernandez for about a year and was dating the sister of Hernandez’s fiancee, the mother of Hernandez’s 8-monthold baby, Bristol County Assistant District Attorney Bill McCauley said. On June 14, Lloyd went with Hernandez to the Boston nightclub Rumor. McCauley said Hernandez was upset Lloyd had talked to people there with whom Hernandez had trouble. He did not elaborate. Two days later, McCauley said, Hernandez texted two unidentified friends and asked them to hurry to Massachusetts from Connecticut. At 9:05 p.m., a few minutes after the first message to his friends, Hernandez texted Lloyd to tell him he wanted to get together, McCauley said. Later, surveillance footage from Hernandez’s home showed his friends arrive and go inside. Hernandez, holding a gun, then told someone in the house he was upset and couldn’t trust anyone anymore, the prosecutor said. At 1:12 a.m. June 17, the three left in Hernandez’s rented silver Nissan Altima, McCauley said. Cell towers tracked their movements to a gas station off the highway. There, he said, Hernandez bought blue Bubblicious gum. At 2:32 a.m., they arrived outside Lloyd’s home in Boston and texted him that they were there. McCauley said Lloyd’s sister saw him get into Hernandez’s car. From there, surveillance cameras captured images of what the prosecutor said was Hernandez driving the silver Altima through Boston. As they drove back toward North Attleborough, Hernandez told Lloyd he was upset about what happened at the club and didn’t trust him, McCauley said. That was when Lloyd began sending texts to his sister. Surveillance video showed the car entering the industrial park and at 3:23 a.m. driving down a gravel road near where Lloyd’s body was found. Four minutes later, McCauley said, the car emerged. During that period, employees working an overnight shift nearby heard several gunshots, McCauley said. McCauley said Lloyd was shot multiple times, including twice from above as he was lying on the ground. He said five .45-caliber casings were found at the scene. Authorities did not say who fired the shots or identify the two others with Hernandez. At 3:29 a.m., surveillance at Hernandez’s house showed him arriving and walking through the house with a gun in his hand, McCauley said. His friend is also seen holding a gun, and neither weapon has been found, McCauley said. Then, the surveillance system stopped recording, and footage was missing from the six to eight hours after the slaying, he said. The afternoon of June 17, the prosecutor said, Hernandez returned the rental car, offering the attendant a piece of blue Bubblicious gum when he dropped it off. While cleaning the car, the attendant found a piece of blue Bubblicious gum and a shell casing, which he threw away. Police later searched the trash bin and found the gum and the casing. The prosecutor said it was tested and matched the casings found where Lloyd was killed.

The Memphis Grizzlies had Marc Gasol. They were all players who were drafted in the second round, either by the team they were playing for or a previous team. All players who played crucial minutes for teams making postseason runs. It was more of the same in the NBA Finals, where Miami had second-rounder Mario Chalmers and undrafted big men Chris Andersen and Udonis Haslem against the San Antonio Spurs, perhaps the NBA’s gold standard for finding and developing under-theradar talent. Danny Green was a second-round draft pick of the Cavaliers in 2009 and was cut twice by the Spurs before developing into a reliable perimeter shooter who broke the record for 3-pointers made in a finals series. Gary Neal was undrafted and had to go over to Europe before getting a chance with the Spurs’ summer league team and solidifying himself as one of the team’s first players off the bench. And Manu Ginobili, of course, has been one of the most successful second-round picks in NBA draft history, a three-time champion and one-third of a Spurs core that has stuck together for 10 years. “Ginobili, that was a pick that a lot of people knew was going to be good,” Saunders said. “It’s just at the time a lot of people didn’t want to wait for him. So that was a good pick for them. “Green was cut by Cleveland. There’s a lot of ways to build your team, whether it’s through the draft or taking guys that you feel fit better in your system than somebody else can.” Other notable second- round picks in recent years include Isaiah Thomas, Nikola Pekovic, DeAndre Jordan and Goran Dragic. Whomever is taken in the second round this season certainly doesn’t need to make a difference right away. They often are stashed away on the bench, or in Europe for a season or two, and developed before they get a shot at significant minutes in the NBA. Because they come into the league making a relatively small salary, teams can afford to be patient with them early. In this new fiscal world, they can’t afford not to. The penalties for exceeding the salary cap are so harsh these days that even teams in the largest markets with the biggest revenues are starting to pay it some serious attention. Often after signing two or three players to bigmoney contracts, there is little left over to spend on the supporting cast. Fortunately for the savvy NBA general manager, second-round picks cost them little in the way of up-front investment. The trend offers encouragement for some of the fringe prospects in this year’s draft. They watched players who weren’t picked in the lottery become featured pieces in the postseason, offering a road map to the NBA one way or another. “There are a lot of different routes to the NBA,” Wisconsin forward Jared Berggren said. “You don’t have to be a lottery pick or a first-rounder to make an impact in the league. I don’t know if that’s what it’s going to take for me. Whatever it takes, I’m going to stick with it and hopefully reach my goal of one day playing in the NBA, however I get there.” Jonah Hoback, in the 13-14 age group, won his second straight tournament with a score of 49. Jonah now has a total of 28 points for the year giving him a commanding lead. Still in the running is Grant Gilmore whose third place finish gives him a total of 18 points. Colten Blaken’s score of 53 earned him eight points at Cliffside giving him 11 points for the year. Aaron Carr won four points for his fourth place finish giving him nine accumulated points. The 18-19 year old age group had only one participant on Wednesday. Seth Jarrell shot a 50 to earn the available 10 points. With many positions still undecided, Thursday’s tournament at the Riverside Golf Course in Mason, WV. should be most competitive. The season’s final get together will be on Monday, July 1, at the Hidden Valley Golf Course in Point Pleasant. This will be a handicap tournament with many prizes available to all the players. Registration will start at 8:30 a.m. with play getting under way at 9 a.m. All area youth are welcome to play even if they have not played previously. There is a fee involved to play and lunch will be served at the conclusion of the event. firmed what he thought had just happened. Riffle posted a winning time of 1:54.98, less than one-half second ahead of the third-place Burcham. Riffle’s mark was almost four seconds faster than his regional qualifying time of 1:58.91 and also became a new personal record for the West Virginia Wesleyan bound signee. Riffle spoke about his incredible accomplishment afterwards, noting that he couldn’t have asked for a better way to finish up as a Point Pleasant athlete. “This is an amazing feeling, and it feels good doing this for Point Pleasant. My family has grown up here over the years, so it just means a lot to me from that aspect,” Riffle said. “I knew coming in that if I could keep up with Burcham over the final 200 meters, I could out-kick him — and I executed perfectly. I had never beaten him in any race before now.” It was the second straight year that PPHS won a state championship in a track event, although it had been over decade since Point won a state championship at the Class AAA level. Only one story was better in the Ohio Valley Publishing area than what these two young men accomplished this year, or anyone else for that matter. The top story of the 201213 sports year will be available in the weekend sports editions of the Point Pleasant Register and The Sunday Times-Sentinel. Golfers From Page B1 52 earned him eight points for second place. Gabe Gilmore posted a 60 to win the six third place points, while Nicholas Durst earned 4 points with his score of 65. Jasiah now has a sixpoint lead over Wyatt, with Gabe’s total of 14 points giving him third place. Nicholas could move up with a good score in the final tournament on Thursday at the Riverside Golf Course in Mason, WV. Morgan Miller now has the girls division of this age group secured. Her score of 50 gave her another 10 points for an accumulated total of 30 for the season. Duo From Page B1 event — the Class AAA 800m final. Burcham had already won state titles in the 1600m and 3200m events earlier that day, and the Oklahoma-bound runner also owns the Class AAA records in the 800m, 1600m and 3200m events. Riffle — who finished third in the Class AA 800m final the year before — needed an at-large bid just to qualify for the state meet after placing fourth in the 800m run at regionals. What followed in the 800m final, however, was something truly spectacular. Riffle trailed only Burcham and Brian Lawhon (CMHS) after the first lap, then the trio ended up sideby-side headed into the home stretch — where they remained close headed into the final 10 meters. Riffle, on the outside, claimed a slight edge and lunged forward ahead of his two Cabell Midland competitors before all three fell across the finish line. As Riffle was getting up, it took a few seconds to register that he had just won a state title.

Keselowski looking to defend Kentucky victory SPARTA, Ky. (AP) — Kentucky Speedway is hot and bumpy, and Brad Keselowski can’t wait to race. So much that he’s competing in all three NASCAR national series events this weekend. Again. Keselowski’s eagerness is understandable. He’s the defending champion in the Sprint Cup race Saturday night, one of five series victories that propelled the Michigan driver to last season’s title. Standing ninth in the hunt for a berth in the Chase, he aims to improve his standing with his first win this season. Keselowski believes there’s no better place to get it than on the 1.5-mile oval that has served him well. After all, he was second at the track last year in the Truck race and won the Nationwide event in 2011 before last year’s Cup victory. “Kentucky’s been one of my best race tracks,” said the Penske Racing driver, who will run in Thursday night’s Truck race and Friday night’s Nationwide event along with fellow Cup regular Kyle Busch. “I won here on the Cup side last year and the Nationwide side two years ago, but haven’t won here on the Truck level. I’d like to come here and win all three; that would really be something special.” However, Keselowski would especially welcome a Cup victory right now. After running ninth or better in seven of his first eight starts this season, Keselowski’s best finish since in the No. 2 Ford Fusion was fifth this month at Dover, the site of his last Cup victory in September. Over his past 12 starts he has led just 17 laps, a big falloff from 103 over the first four races. Keselowski’s season has also included two NASCAR penalties totaling 31 points for having an illegal part at Texas and being too low after the Dover race, respectively. And yet, he’s still solidly in the running for his third consecutive appearance in the Chase for the Sprint Cup. That speaks volumes about the Penske team and its extremely confident driver, who expressed belief of returning to victory lane this season during a promotional appearance here earlier this month. Standing on a hill looking toward the first turn of the speedway, Keselowski sounded like someone with a lot to look forward to — and with good reason, given his track record at Kentucky. “We came right here the first time and ran well, we tested here before coming a couple years back and that was advantageous as well,” said Keselowski, whose driver rating of 128.2 at Kentucky is just behind leader Kyle Busch (133.0). “What I like out of a race car and how I drive, it really fits this race track. That has led to my success here, but that doesn’t mean we’re guaranteed to win here or even run well. We still have to work hard and make it happen.” Keselowski definitely looks forward to the challenges Kentucky presents, such as triple-digit track temperatures — even after sundown — and bumpy asphalt. “As drivers, we hate to see repaves,” he said of the surface. “It makes the track almost too easy to drive, very unpredictable and hard to put on side-by-side racing. Kentucky’s the exact opposite. It’s rough, it’s bumpy, it’s actually a little bit predictable because of that.” On the bumps, Keselowski added, “they’re everywhere, not one spot. Very noticeable. It’s like running over a freeway that truck drivers have been on and they try to patch in some spots where they made divots.” The prospect of doing this on three consecutive nights has Keselowski even more excited. Then again, Kentucky has provided the 2010 Nationwide Series champion plenty of opportunities to get psyched up. Last year’s runner-up finish in the Truck race marked his first start in that series since 2005 and ‘06, finishing 18th and 30th respectively. Keselowski returned two years later in the Nationwide Series and posted an impressive record of top-seven runs highlighted by his dominant 2011 victory in which he started fifth and led 132 laps. In fact, his lowest Nationwide finish at Kentucky (seventh) came last year. ARE YOU HAPPY PAYING MORE?

As the new collective bargaining agreement imposes far harsher penalties for exceeding the salary cap, finding cheap, productive players after the first round closes has never been more important. The NBA draft opened on Thursday night, with most of the interest from fans focused on the top 14 lottery selections. While many might tune out once those are over, the draft will really be just getting started. Finding players who can fit into a team’s rotation — either next season or after a year or two of development — has become a priority for cost-conscious franchises that spend the bulk of their money on an All-Star or two at the top of their roster. “Eventually, the cap is pretty hard,” new Timberwolves President Flip Saunders said. “You’re going to have to have people that are going to be able to fit in. Especially if you have a good team and have two or three guys who are close to max (salary) type players, then you’re going to have to find some low-end type guys that fit into (your payroll). That’s why the development of some low-round guys can be important.” That trend could be seen all over the NBA playoffs, where teams struck gold players drafted in the second round, or not drafted at all. The Golden State Warriors had Draymond Green and Carl Landry. The Houston Rockets had Omer Asik and Chandler Parsons. The Indiana Pac- �Page B4 • The Daily Sentinel www.mydailysentinel.com Friday, June 28, 2013 Best and worst draft choices — for all 30 teams ATLANTA HAWKS Best Value: Doc Rivers, No. 31 pick, 1983. Plenty of teams passed on Rivers, who was part of a draft that also included talented point guards Derek Harper and Darrell Walker. Rivers played eight solid seasons in Atlanta. Worst Value: DerMarr Johnson, No. 6, 2000. The second Cincinnati product to go in the top six that year behind No. 1 pick Kenyon Martin, Johnson played two seasons with Atlanta before breaking his neck in a car crash. After missing the entire 2002-03 season, he was able to play again in the NBA — but his career with the Hawks was over. BOSTON CELTICS Best Value: Larry Bird, No. 6, 1978. Red Auerbach drafted Bird in the first round even though it would be another year before the Indiana State star became a professional. Worth the wait, to say the least. Worst Value: Chauncey Billups, No. 3, 1997. The most tragic pick for the Celtics was Len Bias, whose death shortly after the 1986 draft transcended the game, but in terms of mismanagement, Boston’s handling of the third pick in ‘97 probably still stings a bit. Billups was a perfectly reasonable pick, but he had not even played a full season before the Celtics traded the future Finals MVP for Kenny Anderson. BROOKLYN NETS Best Value: Buck Williams, No. 3, 1981. Williams is still the franchise’s career scoring leader thanks to an impressive eightyear run in New Jersey. Worst Value: Dennis Hopson, No. 3, 1987. The No. 3 pick wasn’t as kind a few years later. Hopson played only five seasons in the NBA, three with the Nets. CHARLOTTE BOBCATS Best Value: Emeka Okafor, No. 2, 2004. This young franchise has never picked No. 1 overall. Okafor gave Charlotte five solid seasons before being traded to New Orleans. Worst Value: Adam Morrison, No. 3, 2006. Morrison averaged 11.8 points as a rookie, but a knee injury cost him the whole 2007-08 season and he was traded in 2009. CHICAGO BULLS Best Value: Michael Jordan, No. 3, 1984. No surprise here — and we’ll have plenty more on the ‘84 draft a little later. Worst Value: Jay Williams, No. 2, 2002. The Bulls were already running in place a bit after drafting Marcus Fizer in 2000 and Eddy Curry in 2001. Williams, the charismatic point guard from Duke, played only one season in the NBA before a career-ending motorcycle accident. CLEVELAND CAVALIERS Best Value: LeBron James, No. 1, 2003. The Cavs won the NBA draft lottery, parlaying that good fortune into the selection of James, who singlehandedly resurrected a flopping franchise. James led the Cavs on their most successful run — five straight playoff appearances and a Finals trip in 2007. Obviously, this story took a dramatic, disappointing turn for Cleveland, but his seven years there will never be forgotten. Worst Value: Dajuan Wagner, No. 6, 2002. One year before tak- ing James, the Cavs went out on a limb and took the 19-year-old Wagner. It broke. He had a solid rookie season (13.4 ppg) but couldn’t stay healthy and was released after three years. DALLAS MAVERICKS Best Value: Dirk Nowitzki, No. 9, 1998. Milwaukee technically drafted Nowitzki, but that was part of a prearranged deal with Dallas. It was viewed as a risk because of the possibility Nowitzki might stay in Europe for a couple years, but he came to Dallas for that first season and quickly emerged as a star for the Mavs. Worst Value: Bill Garnett, No. 4, 1982. Garnett averaged only 5.5 points and 4.3 rebounds in four seasons — two with Dallas and two with Indiana. The first three picks in ‘82 were James Worthy, Terry Cummings and Dominique Wilkins. DENVER NUGGETS Best Value: Carmelo Anthony, No. 3, 2003. The Nuggets had eight straight losing seasons before Anthony came on board. They went 43-39 in his first season, with Anthony averaging 21 points as a rookie. Denver made the playoffs seven straight seasons with Anthony leading the team before he was traded to the New York Knicks in a blockbuster 2011 deal. Worst Value: Nikoloz Tskitishvili, No. 5, 2002. The 7-footer from the Republic of Georgia never blossomed in Denver. He averaged 3.2 points in three seasons with the Nuggets and was traded to Golden State in 2005. DETROIT PISTONS Best Value: Joe Dumars, No. 18, 1985. In a draft heavy on big men, the Pistons were able to land Dumars late in the first round, and he would team up with Isiah Thomas to form a championship-winning backcourt. In 1986, the Pistons came up with another steal when they took Dennis Rodman in the second round, but Dumars played with Detroit his entire career and is now the team’s president. 60428047 Joshua C. Cruey | Orlando Sentinel | MCT photo Miami Heat’s LeBron James (6) drives against the Orlando Magic’s Quentin Richardson during third-quarter action of an NBA preseason game at the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida, on Wednesday, Dec. 21, 2011. Worst Value: Darko Milicic, No. 2, 2003. Milicic was the man picked between LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony. The Pistons won the NBA title in 2004 — but this choice still haunts them. GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS Best Value: Chris Mullin, No. 7, 1985. Included in Mullin’s terrific run with the Warriors was a fiveyear stretch in which he averaged at least 25 points every season. Worst Value: Joe Smith, No. 1, 1995. Smith had a perfectly decent career, playing over 1,000 games in the pros, but he was with the Warriors for less than three seasons, and it was clear pretty early that he wasn’t the type of franchise player you’d hope to draft at No. 1. Chris Washburn, who Golden State picked at No. 3 in 1986, played even fewer games for the Warriors, but that was a disappointing draft in general. Smith was taken ahead of Rasheed Wallace and Kevin Garnett. HOUSTON ROCKETS Best Value: Hakeem Olajuwon, No. 1, 1984. Olajuwon’s career was so transcendent that the Rockets have drawn little criticism for passing on Michael Jordan. An honorable mention goes to Calvin Murphy, a second-round pick by the Rockets in 1970. Worst Value: Lee Johnson, No. 17, 1979. Johnson did not play in the NBA at all in the 1979-80 season. He appeared in 10 games for the Rockets the following season, scoring 17 points — and that was pretty much that. INDIANA PACERS Best Value: Reggie Miller, No. 11, 1987. The selection of Miller — over the objections of Pacers fans who wanted Indiana to take hometown favorite Steve Alford — changed the direction of the franchise. Miller turned the fans’ draft-night boos into cheers by helping the Pacers become perennial contenders from the mid1990s until his retirement in 2005. 60429410 In honor of Thursday night’s NBA draft, The Associated Press takes a look at the best and worst all-time picks for each of the league’s 30 franchises. The starting point for this exercise was 1966, when the territorial pick system went away and the draft began to look more like it does today. We’re judging picks not on how sensible they seemed at the time, but on how much they ended up being worth to the selecting team — taking into account where each pick was in the draft and who else was available. When it came to trades, we tried to use common sense, crediting whichever team was actually making the selection. �Friday, June 28, 2013 Gary Stanley 740-591-8044 Please leave a message FINANCIAL SERVICES EMPLOYMENT Help Wanted General 60419955 Stanley Tree Trimming & Removal • Prompt and Quality Work • Reasonable Rates • Insured • Experienced • References Available PUBLIC NOTICE The Area Agency on Aging at Buckeye Hills-Hocking Valley Regional Development District, P.O.

After watching from afar as the team he rebuilt reached the Eastern Conference finals for the first time in nine years and came within one victory of dethroning NBA champion Miami, Bird thinks he has a pretty good idea what it will take to lead Indiana to its first league title. “My dreams, my goals are set pretty high,” he said after being reintroduced as the team’s president of basketball operations Thursday. “I know how hard it is to win a championship. It’s tough. But when you have guys who stick together, who play together, who share the basketball and care about one another, it’s a hell of a start.” It didn’t take Bird long to provide a glimpse of what might be different this time around. While he concurred with his successor and predecessor Don- AGRICULTURE AUTOMOTIVE Boats & Marinas FOR SALE: Bass Tracker Pro Team 185 Silver Ann Edition w/75hp Mercury Mtr, Fish Finder, Trolling Mtr, Ex Cond $9500.

That’s something fans complained about long and often all season. Walsh and others inside the organization didn’t exactly see things the same way. When Walsh last took questions at a season-ending news conference two weeks ago, the soon-to-be reassigned team consultant said the bench essentially performed in the playoffs about as well as the front office expected. Bird want to changes things up. “One glaring need that I see is our bench,” he said. “The bench didn’t step up and play as well as we expected, so we have to upgrade that area and we don’t AUTOMOTIVE AFTER MARKET Miscellaneous REWARD $1000 For the return of or information leading to the return of the following items stolen from Alexander McCausland Farm, Rt 35 Pliny, WV. 08 Hauling Trailer tandem single axle, 09 Yamaha Rhino Side by Side ATV, 08 John Deere Zero Turn riding mower, Generator from Tractor Supply.

Clearly, though, the only man to win the league’s awards for MVP, coach of the year and executive of the year knows his stuff. He won three NBA titles as a player, and as Indiana’s coach, led the Pacers to their only finals appearance in 2000. He retired after that season because of health problems, then returned to the Pacers front office in 2003. Bird worked alongside Walsh for the first five years before assuming control in 2008 when Walsh left for New York. All Bird did since then was lay the groundwork to rebuild a team that had been reeling since the brawl in Detroit and Reggie Miller’s retirement, creating the foundation for one of the league’s younger teams to become a legitimate title contender. While taking the one-year sab- MERCHANDSE FOR SALE Miscellaneous quickly responded with an emphatic no. “There are still questions there,” Bird said when asked whether Granger was back to his old self. “But if he comes back that helps our bench.” More than anything, the break gave Bird time to rest. When he walked away June 27, 2012, again it was primarily because of health problems. He wouldn’t provide specifics Thursday, even declining to answer a question about whether he had surgery. But when Bird reappeared, exactly one year to the day and in the same room he announced he was leaving, Bird sounded like a rejuvenated executive. He looked good, sounded excited and called it one of the best years he’s had physically and mentally as he promised to fulfill the multi-year contract he agreed to. Details of Bird’s deal have not yet been released.

He kept close tabs on his team, joking Thursday that he could tell how the Pacers were doing simply by listening to his wife. He took notes, texted players repeatedly throughout the season and even attended a few games in Indianapolis, usually sitting next to Walsh. Recounting his impressions from last season, Bird sounded like he was reciting book, chapter and verse from the team’s season review. He talked about the surprising loss of Danny Granger, the team’s early struggles to overcome the absence, the development of Lance Stephenson and how the team eventually came together and played the kind of basketball he envisioned.

Name: Kimiko Date-Krumm. There’s the reigning Wimbledon champion — in juniors — who was supposed to be playing in a far corner of the All England Club and ended up on Centre Court. Name: Eugenie Bouchard. There’s the man who didn’t get the memo: That serve-and-volley players, even on the grass at Wimbledon, can’t post significant victories anymore in pro tennis. Name: Sergiy Stakhovsky. There’s an unassuming Spaniard who was actually ranked higher than Rafael Nadal but comes and goes with barely a whiff of notice. Name: David Ferrer. Haven’t heard of them? No worries. They’ll be hard to avoid over the next week at Wimbledon, where so many of the Christophe Guibbaud | Abaca Press | MCT photo players who show up at Centre Court and Serena Williams, right, and Russia’s Maria Sharapova pose with their trophies after the wom- on the TV in your living room — Rafa, en’s final of the French Open at Roland-Garros Stadium in Paris, France, Saturday, June 8. Roger, Maria — have already packed up and gone home. Williams defeated Sharapova, 6-4, 6-4. “I have to say it’s worst for Wimbledon, for history, because many big stars are out of the tournament,” said sixth-seeded Li Na of China, whose 2011 French Open title makes her as good a candidate as anyone left at Wimbledon to push Serena Williams next week. Wednesday was a wild one at the All England Club. Roger Federer and Maria Sharapova got booted.

On the women’s side, Williams was the prohibitive favorite beSee our facebook page to vote fore the tournament began. By Thursday morning, her odds at the London sports and for more information. books dropped from 4-11 to 1-4. But there were four rounds to play and around 100 players to eliminate between the start of Thursday’s play and the finals next weekend, meaning there were plenty 502 Elm Street Racine, OH 45771 740-949-2210 of new faces to take note of between the present and what seems like the inevitable. A good thing? Depends on who’s asked. “For this to happen once in a while, it brings a little different flavor,” said the famed tennis coach Nick Bollettieri, who certainly sees no harm in an underdog PATRIOTIC PET PHOTO CONTEST HOME NATIONAL BANK having his day now and then. “But if it happened all the time, then TVs and sponsors would not pay for it.” Thursday’s Centre Court schedule illustrated the problem. Without Nadal available, and with Williams taking her turn on Court 1, the featured players in the first two matches on the show court were fourth-seeded Agnieszka Radawanska and eighth-seeded Juan Martin del Potro. Radawanska’s is a name known only in tennis circles; she did, however, make the final at Wimbledon last year. Del Potro’s claim to fame? He’s the only player left in the men’s draw to win a Grand Slam trophy who isn’t named Djokovic or Murray. “Del Po,” as they call him, won the U.S. Open in 2009. “In this surface, all the players are difficult,” said del Potro, who won his secondround match on the grass in straight sets Thursday. “If you have a good serve, you are focused in the special moments of the match, you can beat all the players.” Federer would second that. On Wednesday, with light fading on Centre Court, he took a time machine back to the ’80s, facing an unabashed serve-and-volleyer in Stakhovsky, the 116th-ranked Ukrainian. It’s the kind of tennis that used to win championships here — see, “McEnroe, John” — but as the game has changed, the effectiveness of the quick rush to the net has waned. Before his upset against Federer, Stakhovsky was best known as the guy who brought his cellphone onto the court at the French Open and snapped a picture of a ball mark to protest a bad line call. Now, he has an even better defining moment. “You’re playing the guy and then you’re playing his legend, which is following him because he won it seven times,” Stakhovsky said. “When you’re beating one, you still have the other one who is pressing you. You’re saying, Am I about to beat him? Is it possible?” Next, the question is: Can he beat Jurgen Melzer? That’s the third-round matchup set for Friday in a now-Federerless section of the draw. “We see some new faces and it’s good for the sport,” said Djokovic, who won his match Thursday in straight sets. Speaking of time machines … Williams’ next opponent is Date-Krumm, 42, who is the oldest woman to make the third round of Wimbledon in the open era. Her deepest run at Wimbledon came in 1996 when she faced Graf in the semifinals. On a rain-delayed day, they took to the court late and split sets, but the sunlight started running out. 60423768 CHRYSLER, JEEP, Auto DODGE, R Group RAM We want to be your JEEP DESTINATION 2013 Chrysler 200 Touring 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited $ SALE PRICE: 18,999 * Long Crew Cab MSRP: 35,64 35, 35,640 5,6 ,64 6440 SALE PRICE: 34,377 $ * Our Sales Staff 6.7 L Cummings Turbo Diesel, Trailer Brake Control, 4x4 MSRP: $47,355 $ SALE PRICE: 41,723* Must Bring Coupon! 29 $ 95 CHEAPER IN THE COUNTRY 2013 Dodge Ram 2013 Dodge Ram 2500 Crew Cab 01713 171 713 MSRP: $24,480 S Exterior Apperance PKG PKG, 6 Speed Automatic, Premium Cloth Bucket Seats CHEAPER IN THE COUNTRY OIL CHANGE SPECIAL Tom King Stock # 02713 271 27 713 4x4, ower Sunroof, 5.7 L Hemi, Convenience Group MSRP: 52,555 Dustin Jett Greg Patton We are here to help you with all your $ 45,607* automotive needs!
