Former sheriff sentenced to jail time Beth Sergent bsergent@heartlandpublications.com POINT PLEASANT — Former Sheriff David L. Anthony has been sentenced to 18 months in jail. Anthony appeared before Judge David Nibert on Monday for his sentencing in Mason County Circuit Court which had been continued from earlier in the month. The continuance was granted when Anthony failed to provide the court with a written apology to residents and office holders in Mason County which he agreed to in his plea bargain. At that hearing earlier this month, Anthony’s Attorney David Moye took responsibility for the apology not being available in writing, saying he had advised Anthony to verbally go on the record with the apology during the court proceedings as opposed to writing the apology. During Monday’s continuance of the sentencing hearing, it was noted Anthony had submitted a written apology to the court on May 2 and then also gave a verbal apology on the record before his sentencing. However, Judge Nibert said he felt Anthony didn’t seem remorseful and then sentenced him to 18 months in jail. The sentencing order states for the crime of “brandishing,” Anthony is sentenced to six months in jail and a $500 fine which will run concurrently with a 100 day sentence for the crime of “shooting near a dwelling.” For the crime of “fraudulent scheme,” Anthony is sentenced to one year in jail which will run concurrently with his sentence of one year for the crime of “embezzlement.” This means Anthony was sentenced to a total of 18 months in jail for four misdemeanors. Anthony was originally faced with a 42-count indictment in January. Anthony’s plea agreement also stated he relinquish his law enforcement certification to the state of West Virginia, resign from office, withdrawal from seeking reelection in the May primary and not seek any other elected office in the future, and, of course, write the apology to the citizens and officer holders. Anthony’s written apology entered into the record reads as follows: “On a pre- Graduates Nathan Roberts, left, and Ryan Taylor walk into the gymnasium during the processional of Sunday’s ceremony.

Member SIPC. Finding work requires confidence Dear Dr. Brothers: I just lost my job after working for more than 30 years at the same company. I’m discouraged, and am increasingly hopeless that I’ll ever find work again, especially at my age. I’ve been looking for jobs, but it’s like employers know that I’ve lost my edge. I feel like it’s really hard to keep looking, and it just gets worse and worse. Is it even worth it to keep trying, and if so, how can I help myself not give up? — B.B. Dear B.B.: It can be difficult for older adults to find work in this economy, but actually one of the best things you can do for your job-hunting success is try to keep a sense of optimism and truly believe in your own value and worth as an employee. It’s true that employers often can tell when you’re discouraged or feeling down on yourself, and this definitely does not reflect well upon you as an employee. Keeping your confidence up not only will enable you to keep looking for a job, but also will increase your chances of actually finding one. There are plenty of ways to increase your confidence in yourself and focus Dear Dr. Brothers: I grew up on your worth as an employee. in a pretty poor neighborhood, One main thing you should and was the first person in my do is go over your resume and family to attend college. As I’ve find the things that you’re truly become more and more successproud of, then focus on those in ful through the years, I feel as interviews. It also can help to though the people around me focus on your targets in terms have become more shallow, of searching for a job. Rather greedy and self-absorbed.

In general, this is an unhealthy ste*** reotype that you’re engaging in, even if it is based on your own personal experience. It’s important to keep an open mind and not be prejudiced against any one group of people based solely on something like their level of income — no matter whether that level is very high or very low. On the other hand, there is a recent study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, that shows that in some cases, people in the upper classes are more likely to behave unethically than people in lower classes. This behavior was driven by positive attitudes toward greed and self-interest, which may be traced back to these individuals being set apart from — or cut off from — normal social groups and therefore learning to prioritize themselves over others. The theory is that those in the upper echelons of society my view themselves as “above the law” because of their relative independence from others, and thereby would be more likely to flout this law. It’s always dangerous to generalize, though. (c) 2012 by King Features Syndicate Head of US nuclear safety agency to step down WASHINGTON (AP) — The embattled chairman of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission resigned Monday after a tumultuous threeyear tenure in which he pushed for sweeping safety reforms but came under fire for an unyielding management style that fellow commissioners and agency employees described as bullying. Gregory Jaczko stepped down ahead of a potentially blistering report due out soon from the agency’s inspector general, which has been investigating his actions for more than a year. Jaczko, 41, led a strong response to the nuclear disaster in Japan and was a favorite of industry watchdogs, who called his emphasis on safety a refreshing change from previous agency chiefs who were close to the nuclear industry or who came from it. But scientists, fellow commissioners and many rank-and-file staffers said Jaczko had created a chilled working environment at the NRC, which oversees safety at the nation’s 104 commercial nuclear reactors. In an extraordinary public rebuke, four fellow commissioners sat next to Jaczko last December and told Congress he was an intimidating bully whose actions could compromise the nation’s nuclear safety. The four commissioners said women at the agency felt especially threatened. The commissioners — two Democrats and two Republicans — sent a letter to the White House last fall expressing “grave concern” about Jaczko’ s actions, which they said were “causing serious damage” to the commission. No disciplinary action was taken against Jaczko, who strongly denied the allegations. An inspector general’s report released last summer said Jaczko had intimidated staff members who disagreed with him and withheld information from members of the commission to manipulate their decisions on critical votes. A follow-up report is due in the next few weeks. Jaczko said in a written statement that it was the right time to step down, adding that he hoped his successor would keep a strong focus on safety. Jaczko said he will continue to lead the commission until his successor is confirmed. Jaczko did not mention the bullying allegations in his statement, but said he was “truly humbled by the agency’s success” in responding to issues ranging from the Japan crisis to severe incidents at U.S. reactors caused by flooding, earthquakes and tornadoes. “In addition to this vigilant oversight, together we identified and began to implement lessons learned from Fukushima and completed our rigorous safety reviews for the first new reactor licenses in 30 years,” he said. White House spokesman Clark Stevens said Monday that President Barack Obama appreciates Jaczko’s service and intends to nominate a new chairman soon. Jaczko, a Democrat and former aide to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada, was the agency’s public face during its response last year to an earthquake and tsunami that triggered nuclear meltdowns at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant in Japan. He also took responsibility for recommending that U.S. citizens living in Japan evacuate an area larger than what U.S. communities near nuclear facilities prepare for, a decision that lawmakers and the NRC’s advisory board questioned. Jaczko, who has served on the NRC since 2005, was named by Obama to lead the independent agency in 2009. Since then, he has made a series of decisions to delay or halt work on a proposed nuclear waste dump at Nevada’s Yucca Mountain, a project Obama had made a campaign promise to kill. Jaczko’s actions have been criticized by congressional Republicans, his own scientific staff and the NRC’s inspector general. The IG report found that Jaczko acted within his authority and broke no laws. But it also concluded that to get his way on the issue, he failed to be forthcoming with other commissioners. Reid, the leading opponent of the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste site, praised Jaczko’s service to the commission on Monday. “He dedicated his tenure to improving the safety of nuclear energy, and his leadership during the Fukushima nuclear crisis protected millions of Americans,” Reid said in a statement. Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla., the senior Republican on the Senate Environment Committee, said Jaczko’s decision to resign was the right one. With his resignation, “the NRC can focus on its mission of safety without the distractions of Jaczko’s inappropriate behavior,” Inhofe said. Janet Kotra, a senior scientist and project manager on the proposed Yucca waste dump, called Jaczko’s resignation an “enormous relief.” A 28-year NRC employee, Kotra said the agency’s reputation as an independent safety authority had been greatly damaged under Jaczko. “Now, the NRC can begin to rebuild its reputation,” she said. Inhofe and other Republicans said Jaczko’s impending departure reinforced the urgency of Senate action to confirm Republican Kristine Svinicki to new term on the NRC. Obama nominated Svinicki, a nuclear engineer and former Senate GOP aide, for another term earlier this month despite objections from Reid and Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., chair of the Senate Environment Committee. In his three years as chairman, Jaczko was often the lone dissenting vote on the five-member panel, including a recent vote to approve the first nuclear power plants built in the U.S. in more than 30 years. Jaczko opposed a license for the Atlanta-based Southern Co., saying he wanted to wait until the commission approved safety changes prompted by the Japan disaster. �Tuesday, May 22, 2012 www.mydailysentinel.com Extension offering free preservation class POMEROY — The Meigs County Health Department in collaboration with Meigs County OSU Extension is offering a free food preservation class for county residents and other interested persons.

The Daily Sentinel • Page 3 McGrath kills turkey during youth turkey season Ex-Rutgers student gets 30 days in webcam case NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J. (AP) — A former Rutgers University student who used a webcam to spy on his gay roommate was sentenced Monday to just 30 days in jail — a punishment that disappointed some activists but came as a relief to others who feared he would be made a scapegoat for his fellow freshman’s suicide. Dharun Ravi, 20, could have gotten 10 years behind bars for his part in a case that burst onto front pages when Tyler Clementi threw himself to his death off the George Washington Bridge. Instead, Superior Court Judge Glenn Berman gave Ravi a month in jail, placed him on three years’ probation and ordered him to get counseling and pay $10,000 toward a program to help victims of hate crimes. “Our society has every right to expect zero tolerance for intolerance,” the judge said. Prosecutor Bruce Kaplan said he will appeal the sentence, calling it insufficient. The tear-filled sentencing touched on many of the issues that made the case heart-wrenching and legally complicated: anti-gay bullying, teen suicide, hate-crime laws in the fastchanging Internet age, and the uses and abuses of technology in the hands of young people. Ravi did not speak in court but shed tears as his mother pleaded with the judge not to send him to prison. Afterward, Ravi, his family and his lawyers left court without comment. He is expected to appeal his conviction. In handing down the sentence, the judge quoted an email from Clementi himself describing Ravi’s conduct as “wildly inappropriate.” At the same time, Berman pointed out that Ravi was not charged in Clementi’s suicide. He said Ravi has spent 20 months in “exile” since his arrest. And he suggested “hate crime” is a misnomer for what Ravi was convicted of: “I do not believe he hated Tyler Clementi.” He also said he has examined the bias intimidation laws in 39 states and found that New Jersey’s is among the broadest. Most, he said, are used only to increase the sen- tences of people convicted of violent crimes. The judge said he would recommend Ravi not be deported to his native India. Deportation is still a possibility, but a sentence of a year or more would have been more likely to trigger it. Prosecutors had asked that Ravi be sent to prison; they did not say how much time he should get other than that it did not have to be the maximum. If prosecutors appeal the sentence, Ravi may not have to report to jail on May 31 as ordered. New Jersey gay rights organization Garden State Equality expressed disappointment with the punishment. In a statement, chairman Steven Goldstein suggested that while the maximum would have been an act of “vengeance,” 30 days was too light. “This was not merely a childhood prank gone awry,” Goldstein said. Bill Dobbs, a New York gay rights activist who has long argued that hate-crime laws can be dangerous, said he believes the judge gave a short sentence in part in response to a backlash against the prosecution that became visible in recent weeks, including at a rally last week at New Jersey’s Statehouse, where hundreds of people called for leniency. “Law and order cannot solve social problems,” he said. “If you put too much pressure on one person, you can crush someone on the receiving end.” Marc Poirier, a professor at Seton Hall Law School, said the judge skillfully found a middle ground. “Having no jail time would have been interpreted as being a slap on the wrist,” he said. And a sentence of five to 10 years would be “out of control.” The case began in September 2010 when Ravi’s randomly assigned roommate asked Ravi for the dorm room alone so that he and a guest could have privacy. Ravi went to a friend’s room, and they used a computer to watch Clementi and another man kissing. They told others about it through instant messages and tweets, with Ravi boasting: “I saw him making out with a dude. Yay.” When Clementi asked for privacy again two days later, Ravi agreed, then told friends how to access his webcam. But this time, the camera was not on when the guest came over. There was testimony both that Clementi unplugged it and that Ravi himself put it to sleep. The next night, Clementi — who learned he had been spied on — committed suicide at age 18, leaving behind a final Facebook update: “jumping off the gw bridge, sorry.” Gay-rights activists held up Clementi as an example of the consequences of bullying gays. President Barack Obama himself weighed in on the tragedy. Ravi was convicted in March of invasion of privacy, bias intimidation on the basis of sexual orientation — an offense widely referred to as a hate crime — and trying to cover his tracks by destroying text messages and tweets and tampering with a witness. As for Clementi’s suicide, his mother, Jane Clementi, told the judge she didn’t know exactly why her son killed himself. And Ravi’s lawyers argued that the trial was not fair because the judge did not give them details from Clementi’s computer that may have explained it. Ravi is being “demonized by the gay community, and they’re associating whatever he did with the death of Tyler,” said lawyer Steven Altman. Clementi’s father, Joe Clementi, told the judge that Ravi deserved to be punished, saying the young man saw his son as undeserving of basic human decency. The elder Clementi said Ravi “still does not get it” and has no remorse. Ravi’s mother, Sabitha Ravi, said in court that her son “doesn’t have any hatred in his heart toward anybody.” “Dharun’s dreams are shattered and he has been living in hell for the past 20 months,” she said through tears, recounting how he has lost more than 20 pounds from an already-thin frame and how he only finds comfort with his little brother and his dog.

James Renacci and state treasurer and Senate candidate Josh Mandel, spokesmen for both Republicans confirmed Monday. Renacci spokesman Shawn Ryan said the U.S. Attorney’s Office contacted the campaign four or five months ago with questions about donations from employees of Benjamin Suarez, a directmarketing magnate, to either the congressman’s campaign or Mandel’s. Renacci, seeking a second term representing Ohio’s 16th Congressional District, is being challenged by Rep. Betty Sutton, a Democrat who was drawn out of her district. Mandel, elected treasurer in 2010, is challenging Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown. The (Toledo) Blade had reported last August that Suarez and 16 employees and spouses from Canton-based Suarez Employees who provide health and support services for the Meigs County Health Department include, front, left to right, Courtney Midkiff, Sandra Brumfield, Coleen Murphy, Beth Cremeans, Becki Ball, Andrew Brumfield, Sandy Dalton, Sherry Hayman, and Laurie Young, and back, Leanne Cunningham, Sherry Eagle, Larry Marshall, Janet Jones, Connie Little (now retired) Juli Simpson, Sherry Wilcox and Keith Little. An employee not pictured is Steve Swatzel. Corporation Industries gave donations totaling $100,000 each to Renacci and Mandel. Federal campaign finance law prohibits a donor from contributing in someone else’s name. Corporations also are prohibited from awarding bonuses or other rewards to employees in exchange for campaign contributions. The company has said the employees gave freely and weren’t compensated. Ryan said the government sought records showing the dates of donations from Suarez employees. “The attorney had apparently thought the donations had all been made together at the same time, which they hadn’t,” Ryan said in an email. “They came in over the course of a few months.” Renacci’s campaign treasurer provided all the information to the attorney and that was the last time they spoke to him, Ryan said. He said any contributions would be returned immediately if they are determined to be improper. From Page 5 into the schools to do head checks for lice. From September to late December, she administered 1063 shots of flu vaccine. During the year she did 199 head checks, and gave HIV tests to 69 people and HCV tests to 29 where a 46.3 percent positive rate was detected. The child and family health services and pregnancy care clinic which was operated all last year by Connie Little, RN BSN, Clinic director, and discontinued this year due to a lack of funding, had producing health babies as its emphasis. In 2011 a total of 194 pregnancy tests were performed, 113 were positive, and 11 clients who tested positive were under 18 years old. Little, who retired from the agency early this year, reports that during her last year 534 client visits were recorded, with 37 choosing to secure their initial pregnancy care from the Health Department Pregnancy Care Clinic. She added that 100 percent of those 37 were identified to be at risk for early deliveries and/or poor delivery outcomes. All were assisted and the outcome was that all of the clients who attended the pregnancy care clinic for the first 26 weeks of their pregnancy had babies who were born with an adequate birth weight. This is the main marker that is used to determine birth rate outcomes, according to Little. As for the Meigs Dental Clinic, now taken over by Family Healthcare, Inc. a total of 3,282 patients were seen in 2011. As for public health emergency preparedness, plans were developed to respond to a variety of public health emergency situations. Drills and exercises were conducted to determine the effectiveness of the plans, and staff received instruction on their role in an emer- gency. The Blue Med Mobile Hospital was set up and displayed as a resource available to the southeast region in an emergency. Frank Gorscak who has coordinated the program for the past decade resigned to take other employment and Andrew Brumfield was hired as the new Emergency Response Coordinator. Environmental activities during the year included everything from inspections of restaurants, to pool and well inspections, to sewage sites and solid waste facilities. School health activities handled by Brumfield last year included everything from coordinating school heal conferences to prevention training, to school activity programs. As for the vital statistic department handled by Courtney Midkiff, registrar, and Coleen MurphySmith, deputy registrar, the duties involve issuing certified copies of birth and death certificates, recording deaths, the cause, and issuing burial certificates, along with the number of births in the county. In Meigs County last year 155 deaths from natural causes were recorded, along with one homicide, four suicides, six as the result of accidents, and one undetermined. Another important part of the Meigs County Health Departments ‘ programs is hosting the OSU Mobile Mammography clinics. Last year four clinics were held with 85 women being screened for breast cancer, Fourteen of those women were referred for diagnostic testing. The Health Department also hosted OU COM’s mobile breast and cervical cancer unit several times during the year. The agency also works with the Think Pink (Komen funded) program on breast cancer detection. �The Daily Sentinel Opinion Page 4 Tuesday, May 22, 2012 “Duck and Cover” — not enough for the transition out of the nuclear weapons industry Should NATO be handling world security? Patrick T. Hiller Lawrence S. Wittner In 1951 the US government’s Civil Defense Branch produced the film Duck and Cover. Bert the Turtle reached millions of school children and adults as part of a national campaign to prepare the population in case of a nuclear attack. Even at that time the usefulness of the proposed duckand-cover maneuver in the face of the utter annihilation arising from a nuclear blast was questioned. Today’s advanced, larger, and far more numerous nuclear weapons have made the chance of surviving a nuclear attack with the ‘duck and cover’ tactic as hallucinatory as chatting with Bert the Turtle. The threat posed by nuclear weapons is still grave and the only true security for our society lies in their elimination worldwide. Aside from the safety threat to all humans, the fact that we as a nation spend $100,000,000 every day for researching, developing, procuring, testing, operating, maintaining, and upgrading these weapons of mass destruction is fiscally unconscionable. Peace scholar Marc Pilisuk goes further by stating that, “more resources are now committed to the development and testing of nuclear weapons than were spent (using constant dollar comparisons) at the height of the Cold War.” Despite the “commitment” to nuclear abolition delivered by our political leaders (even including a Nobel Peace Prize), the spending on nuclear weapons in the United States is on the rise. Harvard psychologist Steven Pinker, who argues that we are living in the most peaceful era in our species’ existence, warns us that “as praiseworthy as the various nuclear arms reduction treaties have been, they make little difference to global security as long as thousands of weapons remain in existence and the technology to make new ones is not forgotten.” One nuclear weapon alone in the hands of friend or foe is one too many for humans to be exposed to. Continued investment in weaponry that can wipe out humanity is not only a disservice to us; it is a gun to the head of future generations. The International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN) helps us take real steps toward ridding the world of nuclear weapons. Recently ICAN published the thoroughly researched report “Don’t Bank on the Bomb.” It offers an opportunity for the corporate world “to advance the goal of nuclear abolition” by ‘divestment.’ Financial institutions and individual investors are advised to exclude nuclear weapons companies from their investment portfolios. Consumers are guided to boycott companies that participate in this industry. The ICAN report lists 169 public American companies that produce or profit from the nuclear arsenal. Global financial institutions play a key role in financing nuclear weapons companies through share issues, shareholdings, bond issues, bond holdings and bank loans (322 institutions worldwide, 169 in the United States). The likelihood that our own bank is involved is high. Why don’t we help the financial institutions divest from the illegitimate nuclear weapons industry? Why don’t we make sure that our financial service provider is not involved in ‘banking the bomb’? This report can help us know and thus help us act. We all know that nuclear weapons are inhumane, illegal, cause environmental devastation and are a threat to peace. In addition, the financial institutions face risk to their reputation that can go as far as consumer boycott. Rather than pursuing unsafe investments, financial institutions can make a positive contribution, increase employee satisfaction and identification, and develop an improved corporate image. As to our role as investors and account holders, ICAN offers constructive suggestions as to how we can take action as individuals.

Financial institutions might not be aware of their clients’ concerns about the investment in an industry that profits from the production of inhumane weapons, in frequent direct violation of international laws and treaties. Some of us are more comfortable meeting representatives or writing letters or petitions, while others may want to engage in protests, use their power as shareholders, or engage the media. It is well within our reach to make our own unique contributions — however huge or humble — to a universally shared goal of a nuclear weapons-free world. Nuclear annihilation is bad for business and for children. Citing World Bank data, the ICAN report showed that if only half of the money spent on the development of nuclear weapons would be freed to spend on alleviating dire human need, the United Nations Millennium Development Goals would be met by the target date of 2015. Accepting the status quo is supporting a system that in its worst manifestation can lead to mutually assured human destruction. If we make conscious individual and collective decisions as account holders and investors we can be part of these efforts to eradicate extreme poverty and hunger, achieve universal primary education, promote general equality and women’s empowerment, reduce child mortality, improve maternal health, combat HIV/AIDS and ensure environmental sustainability. I choose the latter. Sorry, Bert the Turtle, your plan does not work. We can no longer Duck our ethical responsibilities under Cover of any threat greater than the dangers presented by our own weapons and posture. Patrick T. Hiller, Ph.D., is the Director of the Jubitz Family Foundation’s War Prevention Initiative and adjunct faculty at Portland State University. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (better known as NATO) is in the news once again thanks to a NATO summit meeting in Chicago over the weekend of May 19-20 and to large public demonstrations in Chicago against this military pact. NATO’s website defines the alliance’s mission as “Peace and Security,” and shows two children lying in the grass, accompanied by a bird, a flower and the happy twittering of birds. There is no mention of the fact that NATO is the world’s most powerful military pact, or that NATO nations account for 70 percent of the world’s annual $1.74 trillion in military spending. The organizers of the demonstrations, put together by peace and social justice groups, assailed NATO for bogging the world down in endless war and for diverting vast resources to militarism. According to a spokesperson for one of the protest groups, Peace Action: “It’s time to retire NATO and form a new alliance to address unemployment, hunger, and climate change.” NATO was launched in April 1949, at a time when Western leaders feared that the Soviet Union, if left unchecked, would invade Western Europe. The U.S. government played a key role in organizing the alliance, which brought in not only West European nations, but the United States and Canada. Dominated by the United States, NATO had a purely defensive mission — to safeguard its members from military attack, presumably by the Soviet Union. That attack never occurred, either because it was deterred by NATO’s existence or because the Soviet government had no intention of attacking in the first place. We shall probably never know. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution Letters to the Editor Letters to the editor should be limited to 300 words. All letters are subject to editing, must be signed and include address and telephone number. No unsigned letters will be published. Letters should be in good taste, addressing issues, not personalities. “Thank You” letters will not be accepted for publication. In any case, with the end of the Cold War and the disappearance of the Soviet Union, it seemed that NATO had outlived its usefulness. But vast military establishments, like other bureaucracies, rarely just fade away. If the original mission no longer exists, new missions can be found. And so NATO’s military might was subsequently employed to bomb Yugoslavia, to conduct counter-insurgency warfare in Afghanistan, and to bomb Libya. Meanwhile, NATO expanded its membership and military facilities to East European nations right along Russia’s border, thus creating renewed tension with that major military power and providing it with an incentive to organize a countervailing military pact, perhaps with China. None of this seems likely to end soon. In the days preceding the Chicago meeting, NATO’s new, sweeping role was highlighted by Oana Longescu, a NATO spokesperson, who announced that the summit would discuss “the Alliance’s overall posture in deterring and defending against the full range of threats in the twenty-first century, and take stock of NATO’s mix of conventional, nuclear, and missile defense forces.” In fairness to NATO planners, it should be noted that, when it comes to global matters, they are operating in a relative vacuum. There are real international security problems, and some entity should certainly be addressing them. But is NATO the proper entity? After all, NATO is a military pact, dominated by the United States and composed of a relatively small group of selfselecting European and North American nations. The vast majority of the world’s countries do not belong to NATO and have no influence upon it. Who appointed NATO as the representative of the world’s people? Why should the public in India, in Brazil, in China, in South Africa, in Argentina, or most other nations identify with the decisions of NATO’s military commanders? The organization that does represent the nations and people of the world is the United Nations. Designed to save the planet from “the scourge of war,” the United Nations has a Security Council (on which the United States has permanent membership) that is supposed to handle world security issues. Unlike NATO, whose decisions are often controversial and sometimes questionable, the United Nations almost invariably comes forward with decisions that have broad international support and, furthermore, show considerable wisdom and military restraint. The problem with UN decisions is not that they are bad ones, but that they are difficult to enforce. And the major reason for the difficulty in enforcement is that the Security Council is hamstrung by a veto that can be exercised by any one nation. Thus, much like the filibuster in the U.S. Senate, which is making the United States less and less governable, the Security Council veto has seriously limited what the world organization is able to do in addressing global security issues. Thus, if the leaders of NATO nations were really serious about providing children with a world in which they could play in peace among the birds and flowers, they would work to strengthen the United Nations and stop devoting vast resources to dubious wars.

Cheyenne Maelene Doczi gave the salutatorian address for the Class of 2012. Doczi, a four sport athlete, talked about the different roles not only on sports teams, but also in life. “Basically, every team has a superstar,” said Doczi. “The person who gets and usually deserves all the credit. Every team has the super hard workers, who are good solely because they put everything that they can into all that they do.” Doczi also explained, “There are the middle men, who aren’t really amazing at anything, but they aren’t terrible either. And then you’ve got your people on the bench, the people who work just as hard as the superstars and everyone else, but it’s just not their time to shine.” It takes all of these to make a team Doczi added. “Change the superstar from Michael Jordan to Donald Trump. And the “hard workers” can now be his hotel branch managers, and the “middle men” can now be his hotel staff and officer worker,” said Doczi. “And the bench players can be his unpaid interns. Because somebody has to get his coffee, right? Just like somebody else has to clean the hotels and someone else has to run them.” “No matter how big or how small, someone’s job is, it takes everyone knowing their place and doing what they can do to make something great,” Doczi said. Doczi concluded, “So, even if you are the superstar and you don’t think working hard will get you anywhere else, work hard. Because everyone’s eyes will be on you. If you’re the hard worker, keep working hard; because it’s all you know how to do. If you end up as the middle man, work hard so you don’t have to be in the middle anymore. And if you’re the unpaid intern, well, I take my coffee with cream.” The Eastern High School Concert Band played Pomp and Circumstance as the graduates entered the gymnasium, and later played Castles and Dragons by Todd Staler.

Cheyenne Maelene Doczi gave the salutatorian address for the Class of 2012. Doczi, a four sport athlete, talked about the different roles not only on sports teams, but also in life. “Basically, every team has a superstar,” said Doczi. “The person who gets and usually deserves all the credit. Every team has the super hard workers, who are good solely because they put everything that they can into all that they do.” Doczi also explained, “There are the middle men, who aren’t really amazing at anything, but they aren’t terrible either. And then you’ve got your people on the bench, the people who work just as hard as the superstars and everyone else, but it’s just not their time to shine.” It takes all of these to make a team Doczi added. “Change the superstar from Michael Jordan to Donald Trump. And the “hard workers” can now be his hotel branch managers, and the “middle men” can now be his hotel staff and officer worker,” said Doczi. “And the bench players can be his unpaid interns. Because somebody has to get his coffee, right? Just like somebody else has to clean the hotels and someone else has to run them.” “No matter how big or how small, someone’s job is, it takes everyone knowing their place and doing what they can do to make something great,” Doczi said. Doczi concluded, “So, even if you are the superstar and you don’t think working hard will get you anywhere else, work hard. Because everyone’s eyes will be on you. If you’re the hard worker, keep working hard; because it’s all you know how to do. If you end up as the middle man, work hard so you don’t have to be in the middle anymore. And if you’re the unpaid intern, well, I take my coffee with cream.” The Eastern High School Concert Band played Pomp and Circumstance as the graduates entered the gymnasium, and later played Castles and Dragons by Todd Staler.

The Big Ten released conference schedules for those two seasons on Monday. Purdue is the Buckeyes’ first opponent each year, on the road on Oct. 3, 2015, and at Ohio Stadium in the conference opener on Oct. 1, 2016. In 2015, the Ohio State schedule is: at Purdue, Penn State, Michigan State, bye, at Minnesota, Wisconsin, at Illinois, Indiana and at Michigan. The Buckeyes open with nonconference games at home against North Carolina on Sept. 5 and Northern Il- linois before traveling to Virginia Tech on Sept. 19. The following year it is: Purdue, bye, at Michigan State, Illinois, at Penn State, Minnesota, at Wisconsin, at Indiana and Michigan. The earlier non-league games include Bowling Green at home on Sept. 3 and at Oklahoma on Sept. 17, with one more date yet to be filled. Due to the Big Ten’s rotating schedule, some teams don’t play another for years while the schedulemakers try to preserve longstanding rivalries. For example, Ohio State plays its final regular-season game each year against Michigan, alternating between home sites, but does not play new conference member Nebraska from 2013 through the 2016 (unless they play in the con- ference title game). That is also true for Michigan State and Wisconsin, over the same span. Ohio State also does not play Iowa or Northwestern in those two seasons. Both of Ohio State’s bye weeks in the schedules released give them an extra week of preparation for road games. In 2015, the Buckeyes go to Minnesota and the following year to Michigan State after their respite. Over the two seasons in question, Ohio State plays back-to-back Big Ten road games just once. It goes to Wisconsin and to Indiana late in the 2016 season. The Big Ten championship game, played for the first time last season, will be held at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis through 2015.

McCoy and Michael ultimately finished first and second, respectively. Eastern, Southern advance track athletes to D-3 regionals Alex Hawley ahawley@heartlandpublications.com OAK HILL, Ohio — The Eastern and Southern track and field teams will both be sending athletes to regionals, after a good showing Saturday at the Division Three District meet on the campus of Oak Hill. Eastern had athletes in nine events qualify to regionals, eight girls events and one boys event. The Lady Eagles finished second overall (98.33), while the Eagles finished 15th (16). The Lady Eagles’ 4x400m relay team of Maddie Rigsby, Savannah Hawley, Jenna Burdette, and Keri Lawrence took first with a time of 4:17.80, while the 4x200m relay team of Burdette, Hawley, Lawrence, and Rigsby finished second (1:49.89). Eastern’s Burdette won the long jump (15-08.50), Hawley won the 400m dash (1:02.68), and Rigsby took first in the 800m run (2:27.14). Asia Michael took second in the 1600m run (5:49.38) and the 3200m run (13:02.70), while Taylor Palmer finished second in the 800m (2:28.79). Lawrence qualified in the 300m hurdles with a time of 49.43. Eastern’s Tyler Cline finished third in the shot put with a throw of 48-03. The Lady Tornadoes finished ninth (24) overall while the boys took eighth (39). Southern had two athletes qualify for regionals Saturday, Kody Wolfe and Jennifer McCoy. Wolfe took first in the 1600m run (4:27.78) and the 3200m run (9:58.55), while finishing third in the 800m run (2:03.71). McCoy won the 1600m run with a time of 5:46.33.

The Meigs baseball team had its stellar 2012 season come to an end Saturday afternoon following a 5-1 setback to Westfall in a Division III district semifinal matchup at Paint Stadium in Ross County. The top-seeded Marauders (20-5) led 1-0 through five innings of play, but the fourthseeded Mustangs (14-12) rallied with five unanswered scores over the final two frames — allowing Westfall to advance to the district final. Meigs starter Taylor Gilkey was simply masterful through five innings, limiting the guests to just two hits and three baserunners while clinging to a 1-0 lead. WHS, however, produced four hits and two runs in the sixth to take a 2-1 lead, then followed with four hits and three runs in the seventh to secure a fourrun cushion. The Marauders managed to get the tying run to the plate in the bottom of the seventh, as Justin Myers and Charlie Barrett respectively singled and doubled to put ducks on the pond with one out. Westfall starter Alek Stonerock followed by recording the final two outs on a strikeout and by catching a line drive — allowing Stonerock to wrap up his complete-game decision. Neither team committed an error in the contest, and Westfall outhit the hosts by a 10-6 overall margin. Half of the Marauders’ six hits also came in their final two at-bats. After a scoreless first, Meigs had a nice opportunity present itself in the bottom of the second after Zach Sayre led the frame off with a triple. Ty Phelps followed with a walk to put runners on the corners, and Phelps took off for second on a double-steal attempt. Westfall made a throw to second that was cutoff, then fired back to home plate — where Sayre was tagged out five feet in front of home plate. The next two batters went down in order, leaving the game scoreless through two complete. The game stayed that way until the bottom of the fourth, when Sayre again led the inning off with a triple. Myers successfully laid down a suicicde squeeze that plated Sayre — givSee WESTFALL |‌ 8 Bryan Walters/photo Meigs senior Zach Sayre (11) gets a low-five from Meigs coach Brent Bissell, left, following a leadoff triple in the second inning off of Westfall pitcher Alek Stonerock, right, during Saturday’s Dvision III baseball semifinal at Paint Stadium in Chillicothe, Ohio. WVU: Ex-football coach Bill Stewart dies MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — Former West Virginia football coach Bill Stewart died Monday of what athletic department officials said was an apparent heart attack. A statement issued by spokesman Michael Fragale said Stewart’s family notified the university on Monday. Fragale said Stewart was golfing at the time. Stewart, 59, resigned last summer and was replaced by Dana Holgorsen the same night. Stewart had gone 2812 in three seasons after taking over for Rich Rodriguez but failed to earn a Bowl Championship Series berth. Stewart had signed a six-year contract in September 2008, but the agreement was amended in 2010 when Athletic Director Oliver Luck decided to replace him. Holgorsen was hired as offensive coordinator and head coach-in-waiting, while Stewart was to serve his final season in 2011. But both Holgorsen and Stewart made unwanted headlines in the weeks leading up to the shake-up. An intoxicated Holgorsen was escorted out of a casino, then a former newspaper reporter said that Stewart had approached him shortly after Holgorsen’s hiring to “dig up dirt” on his eventual successor. When Holgorsen was hired, West Virginia had anticipated that arrangement might not work. His initial contract included a clause that gave him a raise if he became head coach before or during the 2011 season. Luck had said he hired Holgorsen because he believed the Mountaineers couldn’t win a national championship under Stewart’s leadership. In Holgorsen’s first season at the helm, the Mountaineers went 10-3, were Big East co-champions and beat Clemson 70-33 in the Orange Bowl. �Tuesday, May 22, 2012 Business Legals Business 60314880 PUBLIC NOTICE NOTICE: is hereby given that Stanley on Saturday, May 26, 2012 at Tree Trimming 10:00am a public sale will be held at 37433 St Rt 124, Mid& Removal dleport, Ohio.

You will establish strong boundaries. Your relationships will benefit as a result. Communication allows greater flexibility and trust. Friends, family and loved ones love being with you. Your charisma soars. If you are single, you attract someone who could be quite significant to your life’s history. If you are attached, with so much going on this year, you could be a touch self-centered. Be sensitive to your sweetie. He or she might have a strong reaction to the new you. You might be surprised at how different each GEMINI you meet is. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You make a strong effort to keep or make peace. You still could get the cold shoulder. Remember that there are other fish in the sea. Postpone any interactions for a while. Check out a purchase that could make your daily life easier. Tonight: Do some price comparison first. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH You are likely to go overboard in anything you do. You cannot help yourself right now. You spread a lot of caring around, which allows many people to feel more comfortable with you. Tonight: Your treat. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH You simply know what to do. Your very nature expresses your caring to others. Yet at the same time, you cannot force a child or loved one to open up. This person is going to be the way he or she is. A hunch could pay off. Tonight: Your wish is someone’s command. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Continue your low profile, and you’ll get results. Others will be forced to come forward and express their feelings. You know what you are doing and why. Still, others are confused. A domestic matter cannot continue as it has. It needs to be handled. Tonight: Do your thing. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Zero in on your priorities, especially if they involve others. Meetings work well today, and others are highly responsive. Tomorrow it might not be the same story. Touch base with a dear friend who always gives you key feedback. Tonight: Continue with friends and crowds. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH You might want to take a stand and handle an issue. By making a call or doing some research, you might find out how right-on you are about an instinct. Someone really does care about you, and lets you know it. Tonight: Don’t get uptight about money. It won’t help. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You could be more negative than you realize. Others try to help you break out of this mold. Soon you will walk back out into a world with more sunshine. Let your friends help. Tonight: Break past selfimposed restrictions. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Though you are comfortable with one-on-one relating, you might need to pull back some and get a different perspective. You most likely feel uncomfortable with a key person you deal with often. Tonight: Talk and chat over dinner. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Others keep coming to you, and you might be sure that your door is a revolving one today. Know that you might need to establish limits, as your friends and others continue to interrupt you. You can say nicely what you need to. Tonight: Now you’re available. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Get your errands and other such matters done quickly. You find that you would appreciate a long lunch with a friend or going out midday to do something you have wanted to do. A parent, older friend or boss could be difficult. Be nice. Tonight: Take care of yourself first. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You aren’t always as playful as today, which might be good. On the other hand, holding yourself back would be a mistake. Build fun plans into the day; get together with a favorite person. Tonight: As if there were no tomorrow. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Stay centered and know when to pull back and relax. Others are unusually demanding and encourage you to cocoon and not get caught up in the uproar that surrounds you. Stay on top of calls. Good news could be heading your way. Tonight: Stay close to home.

The Point Pleasant track and field program came away with three gold medals and several top-six efforts during its final Class AA competition this weekend at the WVSSAC Track and Field Championships at Laidley Field located on the campus of the University of Charleston. Point Pleasant — which makes the move to Class AAA in the fall — finished second overall in the boys competition, while the Lady Knights earned seventh place overall in the girls field. The Big Blacks posted a team score of 66 points, which was second only to eventualchampion Ritchie County — who won the Class AA title with 71 points. The boys also scored all three of the individual event titles for PPHS, each of which came in relays. The quartet of Zach Canterbury, Chase Walton, Anthony Darst and Marquez Griffin came away with state crowns in both the 4x100m (44.63) and 4x200m (1:31.79) relays, while the 4x400m foursome of Walton, Darst, Canterbury and Caleb Riffle posted a winning mark of 3:32.20.

The White Falcons — who finished 10th overall with 19 team points — scored their first track championship in the 4x100m relay event, as the quartet of Jacob Buzzard, Benny Youkers, Jacob Ortiz and Crandale Neal posted a winning time of 45.55 seconds. The gold medal is just the third in track history at Wahama, as Kelsey Zuspan captured a pair of golds last year (2011) in the 100m and 200m dashes.
