On Saturday, the local Democratic Party in both Meigs and Gallia counties hosted governor candidate Ed FitzGerald. In Meigs County, FitzGerald spoke at a dessert reception held at the Carpenter Union hall in Pomeroy. Joining the candidate were State Senator Lou Gentile and State Representative Debbie Phillips, along with Charlie Hale, speaking on behalf of Jennifer Garrison, a candidate for the Sixth District Representative. In Gallia County, the event was hosted by Bill and Ann Jenkins. Also at the event was Gallipolis Developmental Center (GDC) Union Representative Monty Jenkins. Approximately 30-40 people were in attendance at each event. While in Southeast Ohio on Saturday, FitzGerald also made stops in Chillicothe and McArthur. The candidate stated that he has now been in 87 of Ohio’s 88 counties. FitzGerald, along with Phillips and Gentile hit on the changes to taxation under the Kasich administration. While there have been some cuts to income tax in the state, each noted that the cuts only benefit the wealthiest of Ohioans due to it being more of a “tax shift” then a tax cut. The tax shift came in the form of an increase to sales tax and the elimination of the homestead exemption to many of those not already covered by the program. Also noted were the cuts to school funding and local government funding under the new budget. FitzGerald also spoke about the recent decisions which resulted in the layoff of approximately 1,000 workers at the Ormet plant in Eastern Ohio. FitzGerald noted the lack of concern for the region and its workers shown by the current administration. One other topic of discussion, given FitzGerald’s background, was the possible probSarah Hawley | Daily Sentinel lems with regard to JobsOhio.

Chief Bruce Swift and Mayor Mike Gerlach report that the Middleport Police Department executed a search warrant at 271 North Second Avenue in the evening hours of November 24. The search warrant and subsequent arrest of Thomas H. Boyer, 42, of Middleport was the result of an extensive investigation into the recent burglaries that have plagued Middleport over the last few weeks. Most recent were two daytime burglaries that occurred on Grant Street over the weekend. Ptl. Alicia Dougherty and Detective Rick Smith investigated and processed the two separate scenes from Grant Street. Lt. Chris Pitchford and Ptl. Shannon Smith followed up those investigations and were able to obtain the search warrant to the residence where Boyer was staying. Boyer was arrested without incident at the North Second residence in the company of a female companion who was later released. Boyer was found with several items from the string of burglaries which some of the victims were able to identify. The report of the incident reflects that while conducting the interrogation Detective Rick Smith reported that Boyer admitted to all of the daytime burglaries. He was later incarcerated in the Middleport Jail where he remains, waiting for arraignment in Meigs County Court. Chief Swift reported that BCI processed one scene and Detective Rick Smith and Sgt. Frank Stewart processed the other four where forensic evidence was obtained. Chief Swift and Mayor Gerlach commended their department on the investigation and the arrest of Boyer and the spoke highly to the dedication that all the officers involved showed to restore peace to the citizens of the Village. Boyer will be charged with five counts of burglary, a felony of the second degree. Each charge is for a separate incident which occurred on Palmer Street (Oct. 31), Hudson Street (Nov. 18), North Third Avenue (Nov. 20), Grant Street (Nov. 23) and Grant Street (Nov. 24).

Campaign From Page 1 The candidate encouraged people to get out and have conversations with others with regard to the upcoming elections and the candidates. Hale, speaking on behalf of Garrison, noted the discord in Washington and the inability of those in congress to work together. Hale stated that Garrison has a background in mediation and working across the aisle. In Gallia, FitzGerald noted that he would do anything possible to help the situation involving GDC, according to Carole Roush of the Gallia County Democratic Party. FitzGerald also recently announced the choice of Eric Kearney as his running mate. FitzGerald and Kearney will challenge Governor John Kasich and Lt. Governor Mary Taylor in the 2014 election. FitzGerald spoke to those in attendance about his background in public service. The candidate began his public service career with the FBI. FitzGerald was assigned to the Organized Crime Task Force in Chicago, working to hold corrupt politicians accountable. After his FBI service, FitzGerald returned to Ohio, serving as an assistant county prosecutor and eventually Mayor of Lakewood. Following one of the largest public corruption scandals in the history of Ohio, the people of Cuyahoga County elected FitzGerald to lead a new county government as their first County Executive. His running mate is currently the Ohio Senate Minority Leader.

The FFA Expo is organized by pathways aligned with the National Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources (AFNR) Career Cluster Content Standards, allowing students to easily find exhibitors that work within their areas of interest. Eight distinct career pathways were featured, ranging from Agribusiness Systems to Power, Structural and Technical Systems. More than 120 agricultural colleges and universities were represented at the Collegiate Connection section of the expo, providing college-bound students a chance to network with current students and professors. In addition to the sessions and expo local FFA members attended the Worlds Toughest Rodeo and a concert featuring Dierks Bentley with special guest Jana Kramer.

(AP) — Why Adam Lanza went on his murderous shooting rampage at a Newtown elementary school is still a mystery and may never be known with certainty, prosecutors said Monday in a report that closed out their yearlong investigation. Lanza, 20, was obsessed with mass murders and the 1999 Columbine High School shooting in particular, but investigators did not find evidence he ever told others of his intentions to carry out such an attack, according to the summary report by the lead investigator, State’s Attorney Stephen Sedensky III. Lanza killed 20 first-graders and six educators with a semi-automatic rifle inside Sandy Hook Elementary School on Dec. 14. He also shot and killed his mother inside their home before driving to the school, and took his own life with a handgun as police arrived. The shooting plunged the small New England community into mourning, elevated gun safety to the top of the agenda for President Barack Obama and led states across the country to re-evaluate laws on issues including school safety. “The obvious question that remains is: ‘Why did the shooter murder twenty-seven people, in- cluding twenty children?’ Unfortunately, that question may never be answered conclusively,” the report said. Sedensky also said there was no clear indication why Lanza chose Sandy Hook Elementary as the target for his rampage other than the fact that it was close to his home. In a footnote, Sedensky said a computer drive recovered from Lanza’s home might include potentially important evidence but is unreadable, and it is highly unlikely any data will ever be extracted from it. The report said Lanza had “significant mental health issues” — in 2005, he was diagnosed with Asperger’s disorder — but “what contribution this made to the shootings, if any, is unknown.” Asperger’s is an autism-like disorder that is not associated with violence. Lanza “was undoubtedly afflicted with mental health problems; yet despite a fascination with mass shootings and firearms, he displayed no aggressive or threatening tendencies,” Sedensky wrote. “Some recalled that the shooter had been bullied; but others - including many teachers - saw nothing of the sort.” Donna Soto, the mother of slain teacher Victoria Soto, said in a statement that nothing could make sense of the shooting. “Yes, we have read the report, no, we cannot make sense of why it happened. We don’t know if anyone ever will,” Soto wrote. “We don’t know if we will ever be whole again, we don’t know if we will go a day without pain, we don’t know if anything will ever make sense again.” Sedensky has gone to court to fight release of the 911 tapes from the school and resisted calls from Connecticut’s governor to divulge more information sooner. The withholding of 911 recordings, which are routinely released in other cases, has been the subject of a legal battle between The Associated Press and Sedensky before the state’s Freedom of Information Commission, which ruled in favor of the AP, and now Connecticut’s court system. Superior Court Judge Eliot Prescott said Monday he will listen to the 911 recordings from the school before ruling on whether they can be publicly released. If the recordings are released, the AP would review the content and determine what, if any, of it would meet the news cooperative’s standards for publication.

Last week, the Senate couldn’t even agree on votes. Under pressure from President Barack Obama, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., was determined to avoid a vote on adding a new batch of tough penalties against Iran to the National Defense Authorization Act as negotiators held nuclear talks in Switzerland. A deal announced Sunday temporarily freezes Iran’s nuclear program. Reid wasn’t keen on replaying a fight over the health care law, opening up contentious issues such as government spying or allowing probably the last bill out of Congress this year to become a magnet for other matters. “Everyone has to understand this is not going to be an open amendment process,” Reid told his colleagues as he sought to limit amendments and wrap up the $625 billion defense measure after some three days of debate. He contends GOP delaying tactics have forced his hand. A power grab, complained frustrated Republicans who demanded they be allowed to offer amendments and get votes on them — the norm for decades on a bill that represents half the nation’s discretionary budget. The GOP repeatedly carps about Reid’s heavyhanded control, manifested by the rules change on filibusters. Republicans say the defense bill could have been done months ago but was put off until the last minute to spare Obama a few national security black eyes. “Republicans are entitled to some amendments,” pleaded Sen. Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma, the top Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee. He offered a whittled list of 25 GOP amendments from the list of 350 put forth by members of both parties. It was a no go, the latest traditionally bipartisan bill to fall on the hard times of a fractious Congress. In the new normal of congressional inaction, toss the defense bill on the pile with the stalled farm bill, the missing immigration measure and the incomplete individual spending bills. With just a few legislative days left in the year, the latest machinations leave in jeopardy a bill that authorizes money for personnel, war-fighting equipment and the conflict in Afghanistan. The Senate has to pass its bill and reconcile it with a version the House approved in June. If the Senate cannot break the impasse when lawmakers return Dec. 9, troops still will get paid and fighter jets will continue to be built thanks to the separate, allencompassing spending bill. But major policy changes might be lost, including several new measures to stem the epidemic of sexual assaults in the military. Doing without an authorization bill for the first time in half a century also would represent the fall of one of last bastions of comity in Congress. “I’m nowhere close to giving up on completing the defense authorization bill, even though we will only have days, not weeks, to complete it,” Sen. Carl Levin, chairman of the Armed Services Committee, said in a statement. Head down and shoulders slumped, Levin looked disheartened by the proceedings on the Senate floor. Elected in 1978, the Michigan Democrats has had two stints as the committee’s chairman. He’s retiring after next year. The dysfunction is “approaching an all-time low,” said Sen. John McCain, RAriz., who like Levin has participated in far more cor- The Daily Sentinel Reader Services Correction Policy Our main concern in all stories is to be accurate.

In decades past, the leadership often stepped aside and let the chairman and ranking member take charge, debating the bill for hours around-the-clock, allowing numerous Republican and Democratic amendments and plenty of votes. Arnold Punaro, who worked for former Sen. Sam Nunn, D-Ga., from 1973 to 1997 as a top aide and later staff director of the Armed Services Committee, remembers former Sen. John Tower, R-Texas, keeping senators on the bill for days on end, wrapping up the legislation at 3 a.m. Amendments were offered, accepted or rejected. Some senators eventually would abandon amendments under the long hours that Tower would make them be there for the debate. The Senate typically spent more than a week on the bill, Monday through Friday and sometimes Saturday rather than the current schedule of Tuesday to Thursday. “He’d wear ‘em down, but he got it done,” Punaro said of Tower, who led the committee in the early 1980s. This past week, the Senate voted on two amendments dealing with the fate of the detention center in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Reid sought votes on measures addressing sexual assault in the services after some five hours of debate on Wednesday. Republicans objected as they pressed for other amendments. “Why have a legislative body if you don’t want to debate legislation?” asked Punaro, who bemoaned the curtailing of amendments. By comparison, the House considered 172 amendments when it debated its version of the defense bill in June. It agreed to 148 of them by voice vote and held 21 recorded votes. Seven amendments were added to the bill through recorded votes over three days of debate and 14 were rejected. Tammy Webber The Associated Press CHICAGO (AP) — The images are startling. Billowing black clouds darken the daytime sky as wind-driven grit pelts homes and cars and forces bewildered residents to take cover. The onslaught, captured in photos and video footage from Detroit and Chicago this year, was caused by the same thing: brisk winds sweeping across huge black piles of petroleum coke, or “petcoke,” a powdery byproduct of oil refining that’s been accumulating along Midwest shipping channels and sparking a new wave of health and environmental concerns. The piles are evidence of a sharp increase in North American oil production — particularly crude extracted from oil sands in Canada — that has been trapped in the Midwest because of limited pipeline capacity to carry it to the Gulf and West coasts, leading to unprecedented amounts of oil refining and petcoke production here. In Midwestern neighborhoods near refineries, the growing black mountains have brought outcries from residents and new efforts by lawmakers to control or banish the blowing dust. “We could barely open the windows this summer because the black dust was so bad,” said Susanna Gomez, 37, a mother and grandmother who lives on Chicago’s far southeast side, across a set of railroad tracks from a shipping terminal that stockpiles petcoke until it can be loaded on to ships for export. She said she worries about one of her sons, who’s asthmatic, but doesn’t have the money to move. Alan Beemsterboer, whose family owns another nearby site that long has handled slag, asphalt and coal, and now, increasingly, petcoke, said he doesn’t understand the controversy. “This has been an industrial area forever — a coke plant used to be there, a steel mill used to be there,” Beemsterboer said. “Coal and petcoke are just dirty words now. “ Petcoke has been part of the American industrial landscape since the 1930s, when refineries began installing equipment to “cook” residue left over from making gasoline and diesel into a solid fuel that could be burned in power plants and cement kilns. But the sheer volume of petcoke that appeared suddenly in Detroit and Chicago this year — almost all of it in open-air piles — was unprecedented, and caught residents and public officials off guard. With the amount of Canadian oil entering the U.S. increasing almost daily, refineries like Marathon in Detroit, BP in Whiting, Ind., and Phillips 66 in Roxana, Ill., have expanded to handle the glut. Even more oil could be on the way if the controversial Keystone XL pipeline is approved, though by then additional domestic pipelines could direct some to refineries in other regions, experts say.

Letters should be in good taste, addressing issues, not personalities. “Thank You” letters will not be accepted for publication. Refineries usually sell the petcoke to other companies, which store it until it can be loaded onto Great Lakes ships for export to places like China. Burning it emits high levels of soot and greenhouse gases, so its use in the U.S. is limited. In Detroit, petcoke began appearing along the Detroit River in the spring, several months after the Marathon Oil refinery completed a $2.2 billion expansion. But an outcry by residents, who shot video footage of the blowing grit, prompted city officials to order the removal of the piles. In Chicago, residents became alarmed when the black piles began growing about six months ago, said Tom Shepherd, a member of a neighborhood group. The last straw was when the petcoke went airborne on Aug. 30 and blew into their yards, churches and a Little League field. Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel has ordered the city Health Department to adopt regulations for petcoke, while aldermen introduced competing ordinances to regulate or ban it outright. The city and Illinois Attorney Gen. Lisa Madigan have filed suit against Beemsterboer over the petcoke on his sites. “You have a byproduct … that is economically and environmentally degrading a community and the health for our children, and there’s nothing on the books that allows Chicago to protect its own citizens,” Emanuel said during a news conference. Although petcoke is not classified as hazardous, it contains heavy metals and inhaling the fine particles can cause respiratory problems. Shepherd said residents worry because “there’s already lot of asthma, cancer and other illnesses around here.” Chicago’s southeast side is an area where heavy industry and working-class residents have coexisted for generations — one neighborhood is even called Slag Valley. Immigrants came to work in the steel mills along Lake Michigan and many families stayed after the mills began closing. They now dream of a renewal, including a city plan for a huge park at a former steel mill site, but worry that petcoke will “overtake the entire area and we’ll have nothing but black mountains for miles and miles along the river,” Shepherd said. The stage is set for more. Petcoke production at the BP refinery is expected to triple next year, from 700,000 tons a year to 2.2 million tons, after a $4.2 billion upgrade scheduled for completion next month, spokesman Scott Dean said. The company that handles BP’s petcoke storage, KCBX, said it’s spending more than $10 million on upgrades, including improved “dust-suppression capabilities.” But Emanuel spokesman Bill McCaffrey said the mayor is considering requiring that piles be completely or partially enclosed. Some states, such as California, have such requirements.

US spewing 50 percent more methane than EPA says WASHINGTON (AP) — The United States is spewing 50 percent more methane — a potent heat-trapping gas — than the federal government estimates, a new comprehensive scientific study says. Much of it is coming from just three states: Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas. That means methane may be a bigger global warming issue than thought, scientists say. Methane is 21 times more potent at trapping heat than carbon dioxide, the most abundant global warming gas, although it doesn’t stay in the air as long. Much of that extra methane, also called natural gas, seems to be coming from livestock, including manure, belches, and flatulence, as well as leaks from refining and drilling for oil and gas, the study says. It was published Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science. The study estimates that in 2008, the U.S. poured 49 million tons of methane into the air. That means U.S. methane emissions trapped about as much heat as all the carbon dioxide pollution coming from cars, trucks, and planes in the country in six months. Travelers cast wary eye as storm moves eastward DALLAS (AP) — A winter storm system blamed for at least 10 fatal accidents in the West and Texas threatens to dampen the Thanksgiving holiday for millions of Americans traveling this week. Nearly 300 American Airlines and American Eagle flights were canceled in and out of Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport on Monday due to the weather, spokeswoman Laura Masvidal said, mirroring disruptions at the air hub a day earlier. Some of the country’s busiest airports — New York, Washington D.C., Philadelphia, Boston and Charlotte, N.C. — could see big delays. Icy roads led to hundreds of accidents and at least 10 deaths, half of them in Texas. On Monday, the storm brought a mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain to parts of Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, southern Kansas and Texas. But as the storm continues east, there are fears of heavy rain along the busy I-95 corridor and sleet, freezing rain and snow away from the coast and at higher elevations. Tom Kines, a meteorologist with AccuWeather, said it will be “primarily a rain event” for the East Coast, with up to three inches of rain dousing travelers. “The further inland you get — especially as you get into that higher terrain — you are going to deal with frozen precipitation,” Kines said. Snow could fall in West Virginia, western Pennsylvania and the interior of New England. Jeff Smidt is traveling Wednesday from his home in Toronto to visit his family in Andover, Mass., just outside Boston. “My understanding is that I’m traveling at like the worst time ever,” he said. Smidt tried to get on an earlier flight but JetBlue told him it isn’t waiving any change fees yet. “I’m just hoping I also don’t become a statistic during the holiday weekend,” he said. “Worst comes to worst, it will be an eight-hour trek down Interstate 90.” Ninety percent of travelers this week will drive, according to AAA, and an estimated 38.9 million people — 1.6 percent fewer than last year — are expected to drive 50 miles or more from their home. Gas is about 15 cents cheaper than last year, AAA said Monday, with a gallon of regular selling for $3.28. The car-lobbying group and travel agency says Wednesday will be the busiest travel day, a forecast based on a formula that factors in consumer confidence, stock market performance, unemployment and a survey of 418 people that has a 6 percent margin of error. Air travel will be busier and more expensive than usual this Thanksgiving. This holiday will likely see the most air travelers since 2007, according to Airlines for America, the industry’s trade and lobbying group, with the busiest day being Sunday, an estimated 2.56 million passengers. Wednesday is expected to be the secondbusiest with 2.42 million passengers. The average domestic airfare is up 9.5 percent from last Thanksgiving to $313, according to the Airlines Reporting Corp., which processes tickets sold online and by traditional travel agencies. Meanwhile, Amtrak prices in September — the most recent month for which data is available — were up more than 4 percent from last year. Adding to the usual stress of holiday travel, though, is the weather that’s ahead for much of the country. Already, the storm system dropped several inches of snow last week in New Mexico, Arizona, Oklahoma and West Texas. Rick Farquer, manager of Oasis Truck Stop in the Texas Panhandle town of Canadian, said traffic was moving slowly but that roads had largely cleared. Parts of the Panhandle saw snow and freezing rain over the weekend, and temperatures were in the 20s on Monday morning. “It’s something you don’t like to see but you have to live with it,” Farquer said. In Dallas, temperatures edged above freezing on Monday, but rain kept the roads treacherous and slick. The storm system left nearly 44,000 homes and businesses without power, most of them in Dallas-Fort Worth, though people in the West Texas cities of Midland and Odessa could be without electricity for a couple of days.

Warmack had 22 points, six rebounds, five assists and three steals in the victory. RIO GRANDE, Ohio — Fifth-seeded University of Rio Grande jumped to a quick 2-0 lead and then hold on down the stretch to post a 2-1 win over Point Park University, Saturday afternoon, in the opening round of the NAIA Men’s Soccer National Championship Tournament at Evan E. Davis Field. The RedStorm, who were ranked No. 2 in the latest coaches poll, improved to 16-2-2 overall and will advance to the tourney’s second round where they’ll face either No. 12 seed Embry-Riddle (Fla.) or Georgia Gwinnett on Tuesday, Dec. 3, at the Emory Folmar YMCA Soccer Complex in Montgomery, Ala. Point Park, which also dropped a 6-0 decision to Rio Grande in regular season play, finished at 12-7-1. Rio Grande grabbed a 2-0 first half lead with a pair of goals in a span of just 4:14. Sophomore forward Luiz Filho (Sao Paulo, Brazil) scored off the rebound of his own miss at 33:01 for his 28th goal of the season - a mark which leads the country and freshman forward Pau Rodriguez (Barcelona, Spain) found the net on a nifty bender from 20 yards out on the right wing with 28:47 left before the intermission. Point Park got on the scoreboard with 18:46 remaining in the contest thanks to an unassisted marker by Max Flick - one of just two shots that the Pioneers managed on the afternoon. The second shot - a bullet by Flick from eight yards out with just 12 seconds remaining in the match - was knocked away by Rio Grande junior goal keeper Jon Dodson (Tiffin, OH) to preserve the win. It was Dodson’s only save of the day.

Rio men upset No. 10 Lindsey Wilson Randy Payton URG Sports Information RIO GRANDE, Ohio — Jermaine Warmack scored 18 of his game-high 22 points in the second half as the University of Rio Grande rallied from an 11-point first half deficit to upend 10th-ranked Lindsey Wilson College, 75-72, in Mid-South Conference men’s basketball action, Saturday night, at the Newt Oliver Arena. The RedStorm, who improved to 4-2 overall and 1-1 in league play, snapped a two-game losing streak and earned its first-ever win over the Blue Raiders in the 13th all-time meeting with one of the MSC’s perennial powers. Lindsey Wilson, who also lost at Shawnee State on Thursday, dropped to 4-3 overall and 0-2 in the MSC. The two-game losing slide marks the first time that the Blue Raiders have dropped consecutive league games since a three-game losing streak from January 26-February 4, 2012. “I couldn’t be prouder of a group of guys than I am right now,” said Rio Grande head coach Ken French. “Based on the adversity that we’ve had and me being on them - I’ve been on them really hard about playing well, playing with some poise and some composure - we got that today. We still made mistakes, but we had multiple guys step up.” None more than Warmack. The 5-foot-9 senior guard from Orange, N.J. scored 16 of the RedStorm’s final 19 points, including an 8-for-8 performance from the foul line. He also finished with a team-best six rebounds, five assists and three steals. “It was his game,” French said, referring to Warmack. “He was the best player on the floor tonight. He played extremely well.” Rio Grande trailed by as many as 11 points, 24-13, after Lindsey’s Tony Menton hit one of two free throw tries with 11:15 left in the first half and still faced a nine-point deficit, 39-30, after LWC’s Tony Horne hit one of two free throws with 19:01 left in the contest before a pair of Warmack free throws capped a 10-0 run by the RedStorm and produced a 40-39 lead with 16:24 remaining. The Blue Raiders eventually regained the lead and pushed their cushion to eight points, 64-56, following a three-pointer by D’On Hill with 6:32 left in the game. Warmack scored on a driving layup just seven seconds later on Rio’s ensuing possession to kickstart his Herculean effort down the stretch. His two free throws with 3:43 left allowed the RedStorm to regain a 6766 advantage and the first of his two consecutive three-pointers with 3:22 remaining made it 7068 and gave Rio a lead it would never relinquish. Lindsey Wilson got the ball back with a chance to tie after a Rio turnover with six seconds left, but Daronte’ Clark’s three-pointer was off the mark and the RedStorm rebounded with 1.3 seconds left. The Blue Raiders’ final chance to tie came after Rio freshman forward Jalen Harris missed both free throw tries after snaring the rebound of Clark’s miss, but Clark failed to get off a desperation heave after rebounding Harris’ second miss from the charity stripe. In addition to Warmack’s big night, Rio also got 15 points from sophomore forward Phillip Hertz (Rungsted Kyst, Denmark), 14 from freshman forward Bilal Young (Cleveland, OH) and 10 from junior guard Travis See UPSET | 7 OVP Sports Schedule Friday, Nov. 29 Girls basketball Warren at Gallia Academy, 7:30 Saturday, Nov. 30 Boys basketball Eastern at River Valley, 7:30 Gallia Academy at Fairland, 6 p.m. Southern vs. Manchester at North Adams, TBA South Gallia at Green, 7:30 Girls basketball Gallia Academy at Fairland, 4 p.m. Southern at Nelsonville-York, 1 p.m. Wrestling River Valley at Meigs, 8 a.m. File photo from Bryan Walters Wahama interim football coach Dave Barr, second from left, passes out handshakes to his special teams unit before the start of a Week 11 football contest against Buffalo in Buffalo, W.Va.

The playoff affair was held at Weir High School’s Jimmy Carrey Stadium before a frigid turnout who came out to battle the freezing temperatures, blustery wind and blowing snow to support the two Class A powers. The record setting victory during the Class A quarterfinal round match-up extends the Blue Dons unbeaten string to 12-0 on the year and launched Madonna into next week’s semifinal round contest against Williamstown. A dejected group of Wahama gridders saw the Bend Area team close out the 2013 season with an impressive 10-2 record. Eleven Falcon seniors concluded their high school football careers following the high scoring setback. No less than six Class A playoff records were set or tied in the contest that resembled more of a basketball tally than a football score. In the end however it was the Falcons inconsistency in tackling the Blue Dons “dynamic duo” of Ross Comis and Eliot Nero who continued their assault on Class A defenses. Madonna also capitalized on four Wahama turnovers Mike Mathison photo | courtesy of Weirton Daily Times and turned them into touchdowns which ultimately Wahama senior Kane Roush (15) makes a first half run proved to be the difference in the playoff outing.

The Defenders (1-1) shot 47 percent from the field and limited the Knights to just single digits in the opening two quarters, which allowed OVCS to storm out to an early 2815 advantage headed into the break. Ohio Valley Christian — which had seven different players score in the triumph — outscored PCA by a 3023 over the final two frames to wrap up the 20-point outcome. OVCS connected on 23-of-49 shot attempts overall, which included a 2-of-7 effort from three-point range for 29 percent. The Defenders also committed 17 turnovers and were 10-of-16 from the free throw line for 63 percent. The Knights, conversely, made just 16-of-48 shot attempts for 33 percent, which included a 1-of-9 effort from behind the arc for 11 percent. PCA committed 20 of its 27 turnovers in the first half and sank half of its 10 free throw attempts. The Defenders led 13-9 after one quarter, then made a 15-6 surge be- fore the break to secure their 13-point edge at halftime. OVCS went on a 1410 third quarter run for a 42-25 lead and closed regulation with a small 16-13 spurt. T.G. Miller led the Defenders with a game-high 17 points, 15 of which came in the second half. Marshall Hood had 12 of his 16 points in the first half, while Evan Bowman and Elijah McDonald each chipped in seven points to the winning cause.

The win snapped a twogame losing skid for head coach David Smalley’s RedStorm (6-2, 1-1 MSC), while Lindsey Wilson suffered its first loss of the season in falling to 6-1 overall and 1-1 in MSC play. The two teams battled in the first half and exchanged the lead several times in the first 10 minutes of play, but the Blue Raiders were able to gain their largest lead at 43-32 with just over 90 seconds to play in the half. However, a quick 7-0 run, capped off by a buzzer beating three-point play by freshman guard Sharday Baines (East Cleveland, OH) would pulled the RedStorm within 4541 at the intermission. Rio Grande would take the lead at the 17:31 mark of the second half after a Thomas three-pointer and, impressively, maintained the lead until the Blue Raiders made the tying bucket with just over three minutes to play to knot the score at 81-81. Lindsey Wilson went cold over the final three minutes, though, as Rio Grande closed the game on a 9-2 run to finish off the victory. Rio Grande shot a respectable 52 percent from the field (29-for-61), while hitting six of their 11 three point tries and 18 of their 23 free throws. The RedStorm also outrebounded the Blue Raiders, 40-31. Lindsey Wilson shot 48 percent from the field overall (29-for-58), 37 percent from three-point range (7-for-19) and 78 percent from the foul line (18-for-23). “I’m really proud of our players to have the resil- iance to come back after a loss and be ready to play” said Smalley. “It wasn’t pretty, but we got a win in conference play against a very good ball club. We made some mistakes, but it’s a lot easier to adjust to those with a win under our belts. We still don’t know our own chemistry and I’m excited to see what else we can learn from each other.” Bonar, a sophomore from Hartford, Ohio, was able to record four rebounds and four steals to go along with her game-high 27 points, while Thomas, a junior from Maplewood, New Jersey, dished out six assists, grabbed four steals, and pulled down five rebounds to compliment her 25-point outing. Freshman Brooke Marcum (Vinton, OH) was able to record a game-high 10 rebounds for the RedStorm. Leading Lindsey Wilson in the loss was Cassidy Martin with 23 points and a team-high six rebounds.

The win means that Marshall’s game next week against East Carolina will determine the Conference USA East Division champion. The winner of that game will play in the conference title game on Dec. 7. Marshall (8-3, 6-1 Conference USA) got on the board with a 25-yard touchdown pass from Cato to Hoskins in the second quarter. Cato and Hoskins also connected for a pair of scores — a 15-yarder and a 32-yarder — in the third. Cato finished with four touchdown passes on the day. It was the Thundering Herd’s fourth straight win and sixth in their past seven games. Florida International (1-10, 1-6) managed just 262 yards of total offense.

If that wasn’t enough the senior speedster was in on double digit tackles while playing defense. In addition to losing four costly fumbles the White Falcons struggled continuously with finishing off defensive tackles. Comis and Nero frequently eluded the Bend Area defense with Wahama failing to complete initial contact with the multi-talented Madonna backfield stars. Comis scored six touchdowns and an extra-point conversion while rushing for a game high 266 yards in 26 carries. Nero added four touchdowns, a pair of PAT runs, and 184 yards on the ground to lead the Blue Dons offensive barrage. The Madonna victory was the first in three tries over the White Falcons and the hosts were eager to amend their overtime loss to Wahama last year. The Blue Dons outscored the Bend Area team during the second and third quarters by a 48-6 margin which led to the rout. Madonna seemingly wanted to run up the scoring as much as possible as was witnessed by leaving their starters on the field until the final second clicked off the clock. Wahama staked claim to a 16-8 lead after the game’s first 12 minutes but lost starting quarterback, Hunter Bradley, to a possible broken collarbone on the Falcons first offensive possession. A two yard run and a 63 yard scamper by Roush followed by a pair of PAT runs by Wyatt Zuspan and Roush provided the locals with the first stanza advantage. In addition to Bradley’s exit from the playoff encounter Wahama also lost the services of senior lineman Tyler Nutter to a second half injury. Two fumbles assisted Madonna in the second quarter as the hosts rallied from the first period deficit. A trio of unanswered touchdowns prior to the halftime break gave the host team a 34-16 edge at the half. The Blue Dons expanded their scoring streak to 33 unanswered points and a 41-16 lead with a 10 yard Nero run on their first possession of the second half. Roush then went to work on the Madonna special teams unit by returning a kickoff 84 yards for a touchdown to make it a 41-22 affair. Madonna couldn’t be stopped, however as Nero went 46 yards and Comis three yards for touchdowns to inflate the lead to 56-22. A couple of muffed kickoffs cost Wahama considerably late in the game with the Blue Dons capturing the fumbled kicks and quickly turning them into points to negate any thoughts of a fourth quarter, Wahama rally. Roush tried to keep the White Falcons within striking distance by returning three second half kickoffs of 84, 84 and 74 yards but the Falcon defense couldn’t suppress the offensive explosiveness of Madonna. The Blue Dons put together another unanswered scoring spree of 22 unanswered points to lengthen its lead to 70-28 An 84 yard kickoff return for six points by Roush preceded another string of 22 unanswered points by The two lost fumbles by the White Falcons in the second half and Roush’s three kickoff returns resulted in the Falcons not running an offensive play from scrimmage during the entire third quarter and for another eight minutes into the fourth period. Wahama managed to run only seven total plays from scrimmage throughout the entire second half.

Hall shared team-high rebounding honors with Horne and Tyrie Orosco after all three grabbed six carems each. “We beat a very good team tonight,” said French. “But we played with some grit and some character and that’s what I was most proud of. Losing today wouldn’t have been the end of the world, but it would’ve been tough to deal with over the course of the little break we have in front of us. We can’t take a step backward in how hard we play as we get back out of conference. We have to build on this.” Rio Grande won’t return to action until Tuesday, Dec. 3, at Ohio Christian University. Tipoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. the Blue Dons as Madonna extended its lead to 57-22. Roush then provided his 74 yard kickoff return and an 80 yard run from scrimmage before Comis wrapped up the huge scoring night for Madonna with a three yard strike. Wyatt Zuspan closed out the scoring adventure with a gutsy 15 yard run as time expired to make the final count 77-50. (E!)

Russo The Associated Press Northern Illinois moved ahead of Fresno State in the BCS standings and up to No. 14 as the Huskies and Bulldogs jockey to be the last BCS buster. NIU jumped two spots Sunday and Fresno State slipped one to 16th. The top three teams in the BCS standings were unchanged: Alabama, Florida State and Ohio State — the remaining undefeated teams in BCS automatic qualifying conferences. The other major college unbeatens, Northern Illinois and Fresno State, are fighting for one automatic bid. They have to finish in the top 12 of the last BCS standings, which comes out Dec. 8, or finish in the top 16 while ranking ahead of an AQ-conference champion. Central Florida is in position to win the American Athletic Conference auto-bid, but is 19th in the latest standings. Northern Illinois reached the BCS last season by being ranked ahead of the champion of the Big East. The Huskies then lost to Florida State in the Orange Bowl. Jordan Lynch and Northern Illinois overtook Derek Carr and Fresno State this week on the strength of better computer ratings. NIU is seventh in the computer ratings, while coming in 17th in the Harris poll and 20th in the USA Today coaches’ poll. Fresno State is 13th in each poll, but 17th in the computers. Jerry Palm, who analyzes the BCS for CBS.com, said he was surprised Northern Illinois made such a big move after winning at Mid-American Conference rival Toledo last week. Fresno State stayed unbeaten with a win against Mountain West Conference foe New Mexico. Neither team has played a strong schedule, Palm said. “What baffles me is we have such a disparity in the computers between two teams that we’re splitting hairs over,” he said. “That’s a head scratcher.” Palm said NIU’s lead could be temporary as Fresno State plays tougher opponents the rest of the way. NIU plays at home against Western Michigan (1-10) on Tuesday and then faces either Buffalo or Bowling Green in the MAC championship game. Fresno State plays at San Jose State (5-5) on Friday and then either Utah State or Boise State in the Mountain West championship. The Bowl Championship Series is done after this season. The four-team College Football Playoff replaces it next year. The Crimson Tide and Seminoles are still on course to meet in the final BCS championship game if they can stay unbeaten. Ohio State is on deck if either of the top two slip up. The Buckeyes were in danger of being passed by Baylor, but Oklahoma State took care of that by blasting the Bears 49-17 on Saturday night. Auburn (fourth) and Missouri (fifth) are behind the Buckeyes and could make an interesting case for being in title game if they can win out and become SEC champions with just one loss. But the Buckeyes (.9200 BCS average) have a good-sized lead on both the Auburn Tigers (.8326) and Missouri Tigers (.8077). Ohio State is third in each poll, followed by Clemson. Auburn is fifth and Missouri is sixth. The Buckeyes are also third in the computer ratings. “They’re not going to pass Ohio State,” Palm said of Auburn and Missouri. “The coaches in particular are not going to allow an undefeated to not play for the title. They understand how hard it is to finish unbeaten. It hasn’t happened yet in the BCS and there is no reason to think it would this year.” Alabama (11-0) plays Auburn on Saturday, with the winner advancing to the Southeastern Conference championship game as the SEC West winner. Missouri or South Carolina will represent the East, depending on whether the Tigers beat Texas A&M at home. Florida State (11-0) plays struggling rival Florida at home Saturday and then moves on to the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game, where Duke, Virginia Tech, Miami or Georgia Tech will be the opponent. Ohio State (11-0) finishes its regular season against rival Michigan at the Big House on Saturday, and then plays Michigan State in the Big Ten championship game. The Buckeyes have won a school-record 23 straight games. If they remain unbeaten the worst they can do is a trip to the Rose Bowl for the first time since the 2009 season. Superintendent Judge OKs $84.9M payout in truck stop scandal charged in Ohio rape case inquiry STEUBENVILLE, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio school superintendent, two coaches and a principal were charged by a grand jury that investigated whether other laws were broken in the rape of a drunken 16-year-old girl by two football players, the state’s attorney general said Monday. The special grand jury convened in Steubenville had investigated whether adults like coaches or school administrators knew of the rape allegation but failed to report it as required by state law. Attorney General Mike DeWine said the case initially was about the teenagers involved but had become just as much about the adults, including the parents. “How do you hold kids accountable if you don’t hold the adults accountable?” he said. DeWine said he believes the grand jury’s work is done, barring any new evidence. The charges against the superintendent, Mike McVey, include felony counts of obstructing justice, DeWine said. McVey wasn’t immediately available for comment, but the district planned to issue a statement later Monday. An elementary school principal, Lynnett Gorman, 40, and a strength coach, Seth Fluharty, 26, are charged with failing to report possible child abuse. A former volunteer coach, Matthew Belardine, 26, faces several misdemeanor charges, including making false statements and contributing to underage alcohol consumption. It wasn’t immediately clear if any of them had attorneys. DeWine announced the panel’s creation March 17, the day a judge convicted two Steubenville high school football players of raping the West Virginia girl after an alcohol-fueled party in August 2012 following a team scrimmage. The grand jury had met on and off in the months since then. It earlier charged the Steubenville schools’ information technology director with tampering with evidence, obstructing justice, obstructing official business and perjury. The panel also indicted that man’s daughter on theft and receiving stolen property charges unrelated to the rape case. Both have pleaded not guilty. The case has long been marked by allegations that more football players should have been charged and that police and prosecutors tried to cover up aspects of the case early on. Authorities counter that the two teens were arrested and charged within days of the attack. The crime shocked many in Steubenville because of the seeming callousness with which other students took out their cellphones to record the attack and gossiped about it online. In fact, the case came to light via a barrage of morning-after text messages, social media posts and online photos and video. Big Red football is a big deal in the economically depressed city of about 18,000, a former steel town that shed thousands of jobs in past decades.

(AP) — The Los Angeles Lakers have signed All-Star guard Kobe Bryant to a 2-year contract extension. General manager Mitch Kupchak made the anticipated announcement Monday, ending speculation that Bryant could end up with another team after this season. “This is a very happy day for Lakers fans and for the Lakers organization,” Kupchak said in a statement. “We’ve said all along that our priority and hope was to have Kobe finish his career as a Laker, and this should ensure that that happens.” Bryant tweeted a picture of his signature on a contract later Monday morning with the hashtag: Laker4Life. Terms of the deal were not released. The fourth-leading scorer in NBA history hasn’t played this season as he recovers from surgery on his torn Achilles tendon in April. He returned to practice earlier this month but isn’t sure when he’ll be back in uniform. He said last week that he could adjust his game and contribute something to the Lakers right now, but he wants to make sure he’s ready to play for the long haul when he returns for his 18th NBA season. Coach Mike D’Antoni has said Bryant will return whenever he says he’s ready. During his recovery, Bryant has spent plenty of time with Steve Nash, the 39-year-old point guard currently sidelined with the latest in a series of injuries. Nash has been out with nerve root irritation, a back problem stemming from a broken leg last season. Bryant and Nash intend to be back in the Lakers’ lineup together soon. LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — A federal judge in Arkansas approved a settlement Monday that pays $84.9 million to 5,500 trucking companies who were cheated out of promised rebates by Pilot Flying J, the nation’s largest diesel retailer. The settlement doesn’t put to rest a federal investigation in which seven company employees have already entered guilty pleas. Attorney Aubrey Harwell Jr. of Nashville said Jimmy Haslam, owner of the Cleveland Browns and CEO of the truck stop chain, had no knowledge that employees were cheating customers. The company is co-owned by Haslam’s brother, Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam, who has said he isn’t involved with its operations. U.S. District Judge James Moody said Monday that he was satisfied that the settlement was fair, reasonable and equitable. “I don’t have any reservation about giving final approval here,” Moody said at the end of an hourlong hearing in Little Rock. Moody also approved another $14 million in fees that will go to the truckers’ lawyers. The settlement reimburses trucking firms for their losses, plus 6 percent interest, which is calculated from the time each rebate should have been paid. The cheating dates back to 2005. Lawyers on both sides stressed that no one among the 5,500 companies agreeing to the settlement filed an objection and that only about 1 percent of affected companies opted out of the agreement so they could file their own lawsuits. Don Barrett, an attorney for the truckers, said the settlement makes his clients whole. “What Pilot was required to do was done well and … honorably,” Barrett said. Pilot Flying J conducted internal audits after the chicanery came to light in April and, according to Harwell, started reimbursing customers prior to a settlement being reached. An independent auditor verified the company’s findings. The truckers’ lawsuit alleged a variety of violations, including fraud, unjust enrichment, fraudulent concealment, breach of contract and other claims, all of which were dropped with the settlement. Pilot Flying J has annual revenues of about $30 billion. Prosecutors alleged in court documents that the scheme to cheat customers out of rebate and discount money was wellknown among sales staff. Plea agreements allege that sales staff took part in a training session that taught employees how to defraud trucking companies without getting caught. Everything else pales as Michigan game approaches COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio State defensive lineman Noah Spence is from Harrisburg, Pa. He wasn’t steeped in the enmity that grips fans of the Buckeyes and Wolverines about this time every year. But now in his second season in the heart of Ohio, he has a good grasp of it now. “It’s a huge rivalry even if you’re a guy from out of state like me,” he said. Then he added, “It’s everything.” Ohio State and Michigan clash for the 110th time on Saturday, at Michigan Stadium. It’s already been a long, grueling season. But, as it should be, the best and biggest game has been saved for last. Ohio State (11-0, 7-0), which moved up to No. 3 in all major rankings on Sunday, won its schoolrecord 23rd straight game and also earned a spot in the Big Ten championship game with a 42-14 win over Indiana in snowglobe conditions at Ohio Stadium on Saturday. Almost immediately, the Buckeyes’ thoughts turned to the opponent that — like Lord Voldemort in the Harry Potter books — no one in Ohio refers to by name. Instead, they follow the lead of late coach/curmudgeon Woody Hayes and call it “That School (or Team) Up North.” From a distance, it might look like a trap game: The Buckeyes have little to play for beyond holding on to what they’ve already got — an unbeaten season and conference and national title aspirations. On top of that, the Wolverines (7-4, 3-4) have lost four of their last six games and have had major problems running the ball and scoring points. But in a rivalry the size of “The Game,” it’s almost impossible for one team to look past another even though the Buckeyes have another major show- Kyle Robertson | Columbus Dispatch | MCT photo Braxton Miller (5) of Ohio State passes against the rush of Desmond Morgan (44) of Michigan in the Wolverines’ victory on Saturday, Nov. 26, 2011, in Ann Arbor, Mich. down a week later when they face No. 11 Michigan State in the Big Ten title game on Dec. 7 in Indianapolis. “There’s no chance of us overlooking a team from here on out,” Buckeyes defensive tackle Michael Bennett said. “You’ve got That Team Up North, the Big Ten championship and whatever comes after that. “Every week from here on out is a bowl week.” Urban Meyer won his first Michigan-Ohio State game as a head coach a year ago, 26-21, by shutting out the Wolverines in the second half and edging past them on two field goals by Drew Basil. Moments after his team beat Indiana, Meyer said there was not time to waste to get ready for Michigan (although, of course, he did not speak that word). “I have great respect for this rivalry — it almost makes me in awe,” he said. “The respect we have comes with incredible responsibility that sometimes can be overwhelming (when it comes) to what we have to do next week. So we take it very seriously. We’re working on the game as we speak. We’re all going to go home, see our families and then we’re coming back (Sunday) to get ready to go.” Michigan, ranked as high as 11th in the nation during a 5-0 start to the season, has had its hopes dashed. The latest punch to the gut was blowing a 14-point, second-half lead at Iowa on Saturday in a 24-21 defeat. Afterward, coach Brady Hoke — like Meyer an Ohio native — was asked what objectives remained for his team. “We play for our seniors. That’s been the first thing we always play for,” he said. “And we’ve got a pretty big rivalry game next week. … And we’ve got one more opportunity for our seniors in that stadium.” Nothing would please the Wolverines more than to ruin Ohio State’s perfect season and shot at a national title. That’s what happened back in 1969, when Hayes’ Buckeyes defending national cham- pions had won 22 in a row and were ranked No. 1 but lost to rookie coach Bo Schembechler 24-12 in Ann Arbor, Mich. That game touched off the tense and tempestuous “Ten-Year War” between the furiously competitive head coaches. This year, the Buckeyes remain behind Alabama and Florida State in the BCS rankings, which determine the two teams headed for the national championship game. They need to win out and get some help to play in the title game on Jan. 6 in Pasadena, Calif. Ohio State linebacker Ryan Shazier, who had 20 tackles including five for negative yardage in the snow against Indiana, said the Buckeyes can’t be distracted by winning streaks, the BCS and everything else which will have the opposing fan bases crowing at each other this week. “The best thing we can do is keep winning and stay focused on what we’re doing,” he said. “And don’t think what’s going on in the outside world.” � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
