Syracuse looking to begin K-9 program

Whan appointed to
vacant council seat
Sarah Hawley

shawley@heartlandpublications.com

SYRACUSE — Syracuse Village
Council recently authorized Police
Chief Jeff Morris to pursue fundraising efforts for a K-9 unit in the
village.
Morris said since the meeting a
dog has been donated to the village
to be used as a canine unit.
While the donated dog will cut
down on the cost of establishing the
unit, the chief added that funds are
still needed to complete the police
dog training.
Currently there are no K-9 units

in Meigs County. Morris said that
once the unit is operational the dog
could be utilized by other departments in the area.
The dog would be trained in the
detection of marijuana, cocaine,
crack cocaine, heroin and methamphetamine. The dog will be sent to
Clark County for training.
Donations toward the K-9 unit
are being accepted through Home
National Bank for the Syracuse
Police Department K-9 Fund. Donations can be made at both the Syracuse and Racine branches of Home
National Bank or can be mailed to
P.O. Box 457, Racine, Ohio 45771.

For questions about donations contact Lori Miller at (740) 949-2210.
For more information about the
K-9 unit call Morris at (740) 9927777.
Council also filled the vacate seat
by appointing Jenny Whan to the
position. Whan fills the seat left vacant by Mike Jacks.
Applications for the volunteer
fire department and junior fire department were approved as presented by Fire Chief Bill Roush.
Council authorized Mike Smith
to work 10-16 hours as a member
of the police department pending a
background check.
Pool Manager Shawn Hawley
updated council on the pool season.
The pool was set to close prior to
the opening of the Meigs County
Fair.

MIDDLEPORT — Meigs County’s villages, townships and school districts had a few additional workers
this summer with the assistance of the youth in Meigs
County’s Department Job and Family Services’ (DJFS)
summer work program.
Approximately 47 eligible youth, ages 14-24, who
had registered for the program, spent six weeks of their
summer working throughout the county.
“The program give the youth the opportunity to
learn valuable work experience and skills,” said Chris
Shank, Director of Meigs DJFS.
The state allocated Meigs County $108,000 in Temporary Aid to Needy Families (TANF) to create subsidized summer employment.
“This program was a great opportunity for youth to
earn some income, while building their resume development,” said Shank.
Work varied from landscaping, building maintenance, painting, office work and working at the local
pool.
The summer program, along with past summer
youth programs, have brought thousands of dollars
into the county.

POMEROY — Reports
about happenings in the
first week of school and this
year’s goals and objectives for
student achievement were
given by building principals
at Tuesday night’s meeting
of the Meigs Local Board of
Education.
The general consensus of
the principals was that the
opening of schools in the district went well, that there was
little confusion over the bus
schedule revisions, and that
students were quickly acclimating to their classes.
Meigs High School Principal Steve Ohlinger reported
enrollment of 531 students
and talked about the new
way to track a student’s attendance. He noted that the
after-school programming for

students falling behind, funded by a 21st Century grant, is
in place again this year and
talked briefly about steps being taken to enhance learning
skills. He also commended
on the first football game in
the new stadium Friday night
and the tremendous crowd
which attended. He said
“the biggest ever to attend
a Meigs game” was what he
was hearing.
Vickie Jones, principal at
the Meigs Middle School,
noted that 437 students were
enrolled in that building, with
large sixth- and eighth-grades
and a smaller seventh-grade.
She talked about the new
21st Century Grant awarded
to the school this year and indicated the program for those
needing extra assistance will
get underway soon.

Local car to appear
in documentary
RACINE — A Meigs County resident’s car will be featured in an upcoming documentary on the Biography Channel.
Bill Amberger of Racine, received an email from a fellow
Mopar friend, about an ad posted for a 1978 red Dodge
Magnum needed for an upcoming documentary about Bobby Jo Long, an American serial killer from Florida. A car,
nearly identical to Amberger’s car, was linked to several of
the murders.
Amberger contacted the production company, and along
with his wife, drove his ‘78 Magnum to Philadelphia, Pa.
for the filming.
The couple said it was a very pleasant experience, that
the Center City film and video company were great hosts
and very accommodating.
The show, “Killer Profile, Bobby Jo Long,” airs 10 p.m.
Monday, Sept. 3, on the Biography Channel.

SBA disaster assistance available in Gallia, Meigs
Staff Report

mdtnews@mydailytribune.com

OHIO VALLEY — The U.S. Small
Business Administration (SBA) announced this week that certain Private
Non-Profit Organizations (PNPs) in
Ohio that do not provide critical services of a governmental nature may be
eligible to apply for low-interest rate
disaster loans. These loans are available as a result of a Presidential disaster declaration for public assistance
resulting from damages caused by the
severe storms and winds that occurred
on June 29 through July 2, 2012.
PNPs located in Adams, Allen, Athens, Auglaize, Belmont, Champaign,
Clark, Coshocton, Fairfield, Franklin,
Gallia, Guernsey, Hancock, Hardin,
Harrison, Highland, Hocking, Jack-

son, Knox, Lawrence, Licking, Logan,
Meigs, Miami, Monroe, Morgan, Morrow, Muskingum, Noble, Paulding,
Perry, Pickaway, Pike, Putnam, Shelby, Van Wert and Washington counties
in Ohio that provide non-critical services are eligible to apply. Examples
of eligible non-critical PNP organizations include, but are not limited to,
food kitchens, homeless shelters, museums, libraries, community centers,
schools and colleges.
“PNP organizations are urged to
contact Ohio Emergency Management
to obtain information about local briefings. At the meeting, PNP representatives will need to provide information
about their organization,” said Frank
Skaggs, director of SBA Field Operations Center East in Atlanta.
The information will be used to sub-

mit a Request for Public Assistance,
which FEMA uses to determine if the
PNP provides an essential governmental service and meets the definition of a “critical facility.” Based upon
that conclusion, FEMA may provide
the PNP with a Public Assistance reimbursement grant for their eligible
costs or refer the PNP to SBA for disaster loan assistance.
PNP organizations may borrow
up to $2 million to repair or replace
damaged or destroyed real estate, machinery and equipment, inventory and
other business assets. The SBA may
increase a loan up to 20 percent of the
total amount of disaster damage to
real estate and/or leasehold improvements, as verified by SBA, to make im-

From Page 1
Assistant Principal David Deem reported
on attending a conference in New York this
summer which related to techniques of handling bullying in the schools and how to solve
protective victim issues. He said that solving
the problem takes a “change in culture which
won’t happen overnight.”
Deem said that starting the program requires organization of a corps group and support system, but indicated that the first step
is conducting a survey where the kids are
asked what they think about their school. He
also said that, according to information he
obtained at the conference, that the majority
of bullying happens at the primary level and
decreases with age.
Kristin Baer, primary principal, reported
an elementary enrollment of 447, and the
process taking place to get the students acclimated to the schedule. As for bullying she
equated it as sometimes including exclusion
of students from play situations.
Michael Barnett, curriculum director and
grants coordinator, talked about curriculum
and textbook changes to be carried out over
the next five years, particularly as they relate
to science, math and history. He also reported

SEAL book raises questions Greenpeace picks new fight with old foe
about bin Laden’s death
Karl Ritter

Associated Press

Kimberly Dozier
AP Intelligence Writer

WASHINGTON — A firsthand account of the Navy
SEAL raid that killed Osama
bin Laden contradicts previous accounts by administration officials, raising questions as to whether the terror
mastermind presented a clear
threat when SEALs first fired
upon him.
Bin Laden apparently was
shot in the head when he
looked out of his bedroom
door into the top-floor hallway
of his compound as SEALs
rushed up a narrow stairwell
in his direction, according to
former Navy SEAL Matt Bissonnette, writing under the
pseudonym Mark Owen in
“No Easy Day.” The book is
to be published next week by
Penguin Group (USA)’s Dutton imprint.
Bissonnette says he was directly behind a point man going up the stairs in the pitch
black hallway. Near the top,
he said, he heard two shots,
but the book doesn’t make
it clear who fired them. He
wrote that the point man had
seen a man peeking out of a
door on the right side of the
hallway.
The author writes that the
man ducked back into his
bedroom and the SEALs followed, only to find the man
crumpled on the floor in a
pool of blood with a hole visible on the right side of his
head and two women wailing over his body. Once they
wiped the blood off his face,
they were certain it was bin
Laden.
Bissonnette says the point
man pulled the two women
out of the way and shoved
them into a corner. He and
the other SEALs trained
their guns’ laser sights on bin
Laden’s still-twitching body,
shooting him several times
until he lay motionless. The
SEALs later found two weapons stored by the doorway,
untouched, the author said.
Administration
officials
briefing reporters in the days
after the May 2011 raid in
Pakistan said the SEALs
shot bin Laden only after he
ducked back into the bedroom because they assumed
he might be reaching for a
weapon.
National Security Council
spokesman Tommy Vietor
would not comment on the
apparent contradiction late

Tuesday. But he said in an
email Wednesday, “As President Obama said on the night
that justice was brought to
Osama bin Laden, ‘We give
thanks for the men who carried out this operation, for
they exemplify the professionalism, patriotism and unparalleled courage of those who
serve our country.’”
“No Easy Day” was due
out Sept. 11, but Dutton announced the book would be
available a week early, Sept.
4, because of a surge of orders
due to advance publicity that
drove the book to the top of
the Amazon.com and Barnes
&amp; Noble.com best-seller lists.
The Associated Press purchased a copy of the book
Tuesday.
The account is sure to renew questions about whether
the raid was intended to
capture or simply to kill bin
Laden. Bissonnette writes
that during a pre-raid briefing, an administration lawyer
told them that they were not
on an assassination mission.
According to Bissonnette, the
lawyer said that if bin Laden
was “naked with his hands
up,” they should not engage
him. If bin Laden did not pose
a threat, they should detain
him.
A former deputy judge
advocate general for the Air
Force said the shooting was
understandable according to
the orders the SEALS had.
“It wasn’t unreasonable for
the SEALs to shoot the individual who stuck his head
out,” said the former JAG,
ret. Maj. Gen. Charlie Dunlap, who now teaches at Duke
University law school.
“In a confined space like
that where it is clear that
there are hostiles, the SEALs
need to take reasonable steps
to ensure their safety and accomplish the mission,” Dunlap said.
Dunlap adds that shooting
bin Laden’s fallen form was
also reasonable in his legal
opinion, to keep the terrorist
from possibly blowing himself
up or getting a weapon and
shooting at the SEALs.
In another possibly uncomfortable revelation for U.S.
officials who say bin Laden’s
body was treated with dignity
before being given a full Muslim burial at sea, the author
reveals that in the cramped
helicopter flight out of the
compound, one of the SEALs
was sitting on bin Laden’s

chest as the body lay at the author’s feet in the middle of the
cabin, for the short flight to a
refueling stop inside Pakistan
where a third helicopter was
waiting.
This is common practice, as
U.S. troops sometimes must
sit on their own war dead in
packed helicopters. Space was
cramped because one of the
helicopters had crashed in the
initial assault, leaving little
space for the roughly two dozen commandos in the two aircraft that remained. When the
commandos reached the third
aircraft, bin Laden’s body was
moved to it.
Bissonnette writes that
none of the SEALs were fans
of President Barack Obama
and knew that his administration would take credit for
ordering the raid. One of the
SEALs said after the mission that they had just gotten
Obama re-elected by carrying
out the raid.
But he says they respected
him as commander in chief
and for giving the operation
the go-ahead.
Bissonnette writes less flatteringly of meeting Vice President Joe Biden along with
Obama at the headquarters of
the 160th Special Operations
Aviation Regiment after the
raid. He says Biden told “lame
jokes” no one understood, reminding him of “someone’s
drunken uncle at Christmas
dinner.”
Beyond such embarrassing
observations, U.S. officials
fear the book may include
classified information, as it
did not undergo the formal
review required by the Pentagon for works published by
former or current Defense Department employees.
Officials from the Pentagon and the CIA, which
commanded the mission, are
examining the manuscript for
possible disclosure of classified information and could
take legal action against the
author.
In a statement provided
to the AP, the author says he
did “not disclose confidential
or sensitive information that
would compromise national
security in any way.”
Bissonnette’s real name was
first revealed by Fox News
and confirmed to the AP.
Jihadists on al-Qaida websites have posted purported
photos of the author, calling
for his murder.

STOCKHOLM — Global warming has ignited a rush to exploit Arctic resources — and
Greenpeace is determined to thwart that stampede.
Employing the same daredevil tactics it has
used against nuclear testing or commercial
whaling, the environmental group is now deadset on preventing oil companies from profiting
from global warming by drilling for oil near the
Arctic’s shrinking ice cap.
The campaign took off in May 2010, when
oil was still gushing from a ruptured well in the
Gulf of Mexico. At the time, Greenpeace was
startled by reports that a small Scottish energy
firm was proceeding with plans to drill for oil
and gas in iceberg-laden waters off western
Greenland.
“It felt slightly surreal,” recalled Ben Ayliffe, now the head of Greenpeace’s campaign
against oil drilling the Arctic. “After what
happened in the Gulf of Mexico, how can
anyone respond to that by going to drill in
similar depths in a place called Iceberg Alley?”
Greenpeace quickly arranged to get a ship
to Greenland, where four activists attached
themselves to a drilling rig for two days until
a storm forced them to abandon the protest.
That stunt, a similar one in 2011 off Greenland and protests this month at an oil rig off
northwest Russia are at the core of what Greenpeace calls “one of the defining environmental
battles of our age.”
“Polar work feels like it’s going back to the
early campaigns: simple message, people get
it and the lines are very clearly drawn,” Ayliffe
said.
From a publicity standpoint, the campaign
has been successful: Greenpeace officials say
since June, 1.6 million people have signed the
group’s online petition urging world leaders to
declare the Arctic a global sanctuary, off limits
to oil exploration and industrial fishing. Dozens of celebrities, including Robert Redford,
Paul McCartney and Penelope Cruz have announced their support, according to Greenpeace activist Sarah North.
“I have never experienced engaging famous
people at this kind of rate and with such ease
in a campaign issue,” said North, a 15-year veteran at Greenpeace.
The impact on the oil industry, however, is
unclear. The Arctic is believed to hold up to
a quarter of the world’s undiscovered oil and
gas reserves. Despite difficult operating conditions and high costs, the payback for Shell,
Gazprom, Statoil and other companies searching for commercial quantities of hydrocarbons
could be huge.
“It probably sounds a bit cynical, but if they
invest billions of dollars it’s not likely they will
give it up just because somebody is attacking
their oil rig,” said Mikhail Babenko, an oil and
gas expert at the World Wildlife Fund’s Global
Arctic Program.
Unlike Greenpeace, WWF isn’t seeking
a complete ban on drilling in the Arctic but
wants to make sure the most vulnerable areas
are protected.
“We want to be part of this discussion,”
Babenko said. “We don’t want to stimulate oil
and gas development, but if we follow (Greenpeace’s) approach we will be simply out of the
game.”
Greenpeace and other environmental
groups say an oil spill in the Arctic could cause

irreparable damage to wildlife and marine ecosystems.
Fears that the oil industry is ill-prepared to
operate in the hostile conditions of the high
north were reinforced last December when a
floating oil rig capsized off eastern Russia, killing more than 50 workers. While that accident
happened outside the Arctic region, it underscored the challenges of drilling further north,
where ice ridges are meters (yards) deep and
storms are frequent.
Oil industry officials say they are taking the
necessary precautions to conduct safe operations in the Arctic.
Cairn Energy, the Scottish company whose
platforms off Greenland were targeted by
Greenpeace protests in 2010 and 2011, isn’t
drilling there this year. By all accounts, that has
nothing to do with Greenpeace but to the fact
that the initial drilling was unsuccessful.
Asked what, if any, impact the Greenpeace
actions had on the company’s future plans for
Greenland, Cairn spokeswoman Linda Bain
referred to its second-quarter report, which
doesn’t say anything about Greenpeace.
Shell, which has also come into Greenpeace’s cross-hairs for plans to drill off Alaska,
also refused to discuss the group. Still, there’s
no doubt that Shell takes Greenpeace’s Arctic
campaign seriously.
In March, Shell won an injunction by a U.S.
judge ordering Greenpeace to stay 1 kilometer
(.6 miles) away from its drilling rigs in U.S. territorial waters.
A month earlier, New Zealand actress Lucy
Lawless of the TV series “Xena: Warrior Princess” and six other Greenpeace activists had
climbed aboard one of the drilling rigs before
it left for Alaska. They later pleaded guilty to
trespass charges and are awaiting sentencing.
Greenpeace activists also climbed aboard
icebreakers contracted by Shell as they left the
Baltic Sea. And the Greenpeace ship “Esperanza” is now shadowing Shell’s drilling vessels
as they head north to bore exploratory wells in
Alaska’s Chukchi and Beaufort Seas.
“We will follow the oil industry into the Arctic,” Ayliffe said. “This is such an important
campaign. We’re not going to let them off the
hook that easily.”
Founded in 1971, Greenpeace initially focused on nuclear testing. Its first Rainbow
Warrior ship was sunk in New Zealand’s Auckland harbor before it set out to protest French
nuclear testing at Muroroa Atoll. Greenpeace
photographer Fernando Pereira drowned.
The group claims its actions helped bring
about the nuclear test ban treaty as well as
a ban on dumping toxic chemicals into the
ocean. It also takes credit for forcing Apple and
other major companies to become more ecologically responsible.
In the 1990s, Greenpeace campaigned for
years to persuade oil companies to bring disused offshore installations to land for recycling,
instead of dumping them in the ocean.
The Arctic campaign is part of the group’s
overarching focus on climate change.
On Friday, six Greenpeace activists, including executive director Kumi Naidoo, spent
several hours hanging off the side of the Prirazlomnaya platform in Russia’s Pechora Sea,
attached to the rig’s mooring lines. Three days
later, more than a dozen activists intercepted
a ship carrying Russian oil workers to the platform and chained themselves to its anchor.

Woman is concerned about tattling on a married man
portive through her recent
breakup, but now she’s calling me late at night, and I
don’t know what to tell her.
Is it cruel to be honest with
her about her relationship,
or should I try to be supportive even though I think
she’s going to get hurt? —
K.T.
Dear K.T.: The hard part
about this is that it seems
like your friend has developed a certain pattern of
dating, and it can be really
hard to break out of something comfortable, even if
it’s not good for us. It’s likely that your friend doesn’t
even realize that she’s repeating the same pattern,
so it may be up to you to
help her see this. Lying to
her and telling her that her
new boyfriend is great isn’t
going to help in any way, so
avoid that path. On the other hand, badmouthing her
new man isn’t going to get
you anywhere either. If you
start out too strong, telling her that he’s no good
and that she can do better,
she’ll likely only become
more defensive and rush to
his defense.
You need to help her
see the truth for herself
and break the pattern on
her own. Ask her leading
questions that will get her
to think about what she
wants from a relationship
and a boyfriend, and that

will allow her to draw her
own conclusions about her
current relationship. You
can mention the things
you notice when they’re
together, but avoid placing
blame on him. If you can’t
get through to her this
way, there’s not a lot else
you can do. You shouldn’t
make yourself miserable
just because she is, so find
a way to limit the late-night
phone calls that doesn’t
also harm your friendship.
In the end, your own mental health is more important than her relationship
status.

ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio — The
South Gallia volleyball team picked up
its second straight victory in as many
nights Tuesday after claiming a 25-20,
18-25, 25-17, 25-18 victory over host
Meigs in a non-conference matchup
at Larry R. Morrison Gymnasium in
Meigs County.
Both the visiting Lady Rebels (2-0)
and Lady Marauders (0-2) kept things
competitive throughout the course of
the contest, as each squad managed a
win early on to find themselves deadlocked through two games of play.
SGHS, however, found its groove over
the final two games — posting wins of

eight and seven points to wrap up the
3-1 match decision.
Sara Bailey led the guests with 17
service points, followed by Brynn Adams with 15 points and Ellie Bostic
with eight points. Shelby Sanders was
next with six points, while Meghan
Caldwell added five points. Bailie
Corbin chipped in four points to the
winning cause, while Alicia Hornsby rounded out the scoring with one
point.
Caldwell led the net attack with 10
kills and eight blocks, followed by Ellie Bostic with seven kills and Adams
with five kills and two blocks. Katie
Bostic also had three kills in the triumph.
Olivia Cremeans led the hosts with

seven service points, followed by
Brooke Reynolds with a five points.
Mercadies George was next with three
points, while Chandra Mattox added
two service points. Lindsay Patterson,
Brook Andrus and Emily Kinnan also
had a point each in the setback.
Kinnan led the MHS net attack with
nine kills and four blocks, followed by
George with seven kills and Andrus
with six kills. Olivia Cremeans and
Hannah Cremeans also had four kills
apiece, with Olivia adding a team-high
eight blocks and Hannah chipping in
seven blocks.
Patterson also had a team-best 17
assists in the loss.

19-25 setback to visiting
Jackson in a non-conference
matchup in Gallia County.
The Lady Raiders (01) made the most of their
opening game in front of
the home crowd, battling
through nine lead changes
and eight ties alone before
rallying back from a 20-15
deficit to claim 26-24 decision in Game 1.
The Ironladies (1-1),
however, responded with
three straight decisive
game wins to wrap up
their first match victory of

the young campaign.
Noel Mershon led the
Lady Raiders’ service attack
with 11 points, followed by
Kaci Bryant with six points
and Tracy Roberts with five
points. Rylie Hollingsworth
added four points in the setback, while Rachael Smith
and Leia Moore rounded

blocks, followed by Smith
with five kills. Moore added
four kills and two blocks,

Defenders shut out Gallia Academy, 4-0
Bryan Walters

bwalters@heartlandpublications.com

CENTENARY, Ohio —
The Ohio Valley Christian
soccer team won its second
consecutive decision of the
season Tuesday night during
a 4-0 shutout of host Gallia
Academy in a non-conference matchup.
The visiting Defenders (21-0) relied on a proven method en route to their first road
win, as OVCS had a player record a hat trick in its second
straight contest.
After senior Caleb McKitrick had three goals in a 7-3
decision over Grace Christian last week, classmate
Richard Bowman matched

that scoring effort with three
of the four goals scored in
the battle of Gallia County
schools.
Bowman started the scoring in the third minute after
netting a pass from McKitrick for an early 1-0 edge,
then McKitrick was on the
receiving end of a one-touch
pass from Chance Burleson
in the 13th minute — which
McKitrick netted for a 2-0 intermission advantage.
Bowman picked up his
second goal of the night in
the 45th minute, scoring on
a penalty kick to give the

CONCEPTIS SUDOKU
by Dave Green

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday,
Aug. 30, 2012:
You alternate between being coldly
rational and practical to being delightfully expressive and fun. Can you
understand why some of your close
friends could be confused by you at
times? If you are single, you could
attract someone who responds to one
side of your personality and not the
other. Go for broke. Look for places
to mingle in summer 2013. If you are
attached, your sweetie could be highly
responsive to your ability to greet
change with ease. As a result, your
relationship will evolve to a new level.
AQUARIUS often makes you nervous
or jittery by his or her sheer presence.
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 Your friendship defines a
relationship, especially as the other
party initially is not as enthusiastic as
you are. A tendency of yours to go
overboard comes out. Perhaps you
need to relax more. Make plans to
start the weekend as early as possible.
Tonight: Not to be found.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
HHHH Understand your role, which
could change rapidly during the day.
An associate finally opens up because
of your efforts, and you’ll take the lead
in moving a situation forward. You
easily could go to extremes if you are
not careful. Accept a call from a friend.
Tonight: Start the weekend early.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
HHHH You have an opportunity to
break a pattern and head in a different
direction once you understand the limitations of the course you are on. You
might not want to share all the possibilities that come forward. Tonight: Be
a statesman of sorts.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
HHHHH Deal with a key person or
friend in your life directly. Your sensitivity comes out in the way you respond
to someone’s offer. Take in the possibilities here, as well as what is being
proposed in the discussion. You might
be taken aback. Tonight: Let your
imagination drift with music.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
HHHHH You know when to defer
to others. Such an occasion emerges
today. A partner or loved one could
be demanding. As a result, your perspective will change. You might want
to rethink a particular situation. Lots
of talking helps iron out a problem.

Horoscope

Tonight: With that favorite person.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
HHH You might be more easygoing than in the past. Still, you need to
adapt, not only to a changing financial
situation, but also to a transformation
involving a friend or loved one. Just
relax — it will be easy. Let someone
else take the lead. Tonight: Go with a
different choice.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
HHHH You are as frisky as can be.
You might wonder why you are heading in a direction that has a dead end.
Perhaps it is the process you enjoy
more than the end results. Be open to
a positive change and new opportunities. Tonight: Squeeze in a walk or
some other form of exercise.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
HHHH Pressure builds from the
morning into the afternoon. You might
feel as if you cannot handle what is
on your plate until you get a wonderful
idea for a solution. Relax, and weigh
the pros and cons. Use your imagination. Tonight: Incorporate new information.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHH You might want to continue
an irritating conversation to fully understand where someone is coming from.
You could be overtired or dragged
down by your own thoughts. Express
your imagination and sense of determination. Tonight: Happy to go home.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
HHH Handle financial matters early
on in the day. You could be subject
to drifting thoughts in the afternoon,
though there might be a great idea
embedded in those daydreams. Follow
your instincts with a much-needed
conversation with a sibling or neighbor.
Tonight: Take a relaxing walk.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
HHHH Use the morning to the
max, when you are at your prime.
Communication among friends or
associates reveals some nuggets of
information you will want to hear. You
might decide to check out those facts,
or you could invest some time in a
project. Tonight: Your treat.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
HHHH As the day goes on, you
feel better and better. Use the morning for quieter activities, like doing
research or reading the paper. Your
perspective on a trip or possible heartfelt venture opens up. Tonight: Do
absolutely what you want.

was close from start to finish, with the White Falcons
total of 180 topping the Big
Blacks by only two strokes.
Both teams were somewhat disappointed in their
individual efforts. However, the are some days
where the golf ball seems
to have a mind of its own.
It does not bounce straight
nor will it find its way to
the bottom of the cup. In
other words, both teams
were not overly pleased
with their results.
Samuel Gordon and Michael Hendricks shot matching 44s to lead the Wahama
effort. Dakota Sisk added a

45 while Mason Hicks’ 47
was the fourth score counting for the winners. Caroline Thompson and Nolan
Pierce also played for the
White Falcons with their
scores not included in the
final total.
Point Pleasant’s Erik
Allbright was the medalist for the day shooting a
42. Erik’s sister, Kelsey,
posted a 44 with Denver
Thomas contributing a
45. John Rhea’s 51 was the
final score that added to
the Big Blacks total. The
scores from Adam Thomas
and Rhett Lanier were not
included in the final Point
Pleasant total.
