Meigs County’s first confirmed case was reported on April 7, followed by the probable case (a person who had been in direct contact with the first case) reported on April 15. The third case (second confirmed case) was confirmed on May 3. None of the three individuals, all men, were hospitalized during their illness. The definition of recovered being used by the Meigs County Health Department is “showing no signs or symptoms of COVID- 19 and completing the entire quarantine period.” The first two had been listed as recovered prior to the announcement of the third case diagnosis. With an onset date of around April 29 for the latest individual diagnosed, that person has now completed the quarantine period and is showing no symptoms. According to information provided by the health department, a confirmed case is defined as an individual with a positive laboratory result for COVID19. A probable case is defined as an individual who has not been tested for COVID-19, but is likely to have the illness based on close contact with a confirmed or probable case, symptoms, and/or exposure to an area with ongoing See CASE | 12 Ohio University prepares to open campuses in the fall Health and safety of University community remains university’s top priority ATHENS — After a historic spring semester, Ohio University is making plans to reopen campus for the fall 2020 semester. “With the health and safety of our University community at the top of our minds, we are planning for our new normal,” President M. Duane Nellis said. “It is our hope and intention that we will return to in-person instruction in the fall if it is safe for us to do so.” Under guidance from Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and public health officials, members of the University community are discussing several scenarios to safely reopen on-campus operations. Further, Ohio University is collaborating with peer institutions across the state to help guide decision making as the impact of the pandemic continues to unfold in Athens, in Ohio, and beyond. The University has developed working groups across its shared governance structure to assist with collaborative planning for fall semester. This includes a public health group focused on testing and quarantine needs and coordinating with local public health officials, a group focused on personal protective equipment supplies and procurement, a group focused on bringing employees back safely, an academic scenario planning group, a student experiences group, an academic policy group, and a group focused on research and lab spaces. Plans from each are being brought to a coordinating council to make recommendations to the President See FALL | 12 AIM Media Midwest Operating, LLC (USPS 145-966) Telephone: 740-992-2155 Publishes every Sunday and Tuesday through Friday.

State campgrounds will open May 21 and motor vehicle bureaus on May 26, although Lt. Gov. Jon Husted urged residents to do as much vehicle renewal online as possible. But water parks and swimming at amusement parks are still off limits, as is gambling at racinos and casinos, which remain closed, Husted said. Horse racing will begin May 22 without spectators. Gov. Mike DeWine was under pressure to open day care centers as much of the economy has begun reopening, with Ohioans having returned to offices, factories, construction jobs and retail stores. Restaurants can begin patio dining Friday with inside dining to restart May 21. The plan that opens day care centers May 31 limits preschooland school-age children to nine in a classroom, and infants and tod- dlers to six per classroom. Temperatures will be taken daily, and employees must wear masks. The reduced class size does not mean that some families won’t have spots for their children, the governor said. “It’s certainly not our goal to have any family left out,” said DeWine, a Republican. Ohio will use $60 million in federal pandemic relief aid to boost cleaning in day care centers and help reduce classroom size, DeWine said. Day camps will also open May 31, a boon to many families See REOPEN | 3 �OBITUARIES/NEWS 2 Friday, May 15, 2020 OBITUARIES ALBERT E. (GENE) FRANCE RUTH C.

But it is clear that Christians could do a whole lot better in the speaking department. And, to be clear, this applies to things we post on social media as well.

IN BRIEF NYC health chief under fire for alleged remark about cops NEW YORK (AP) — New York City’s mayor expressed concern Thursday over a heated phone call in March between his health commissioner and a top police commander over what was then a dangerously thin stockpile of face masks. During the call, which took place as health care workers were desperate to obtain more protective gear to treat thousands of coronavirus patients streaming into hospitals, Health Commissioner Dr. Oxiris Barbot clashed with NYPD Chief of Department Terence Monahan, who waned more masks for officers. The New York Post, citing an anonymous source, reported late Wednesday that Barbot retorted, “I don’t give two rats’ asses about your cops,” during the call. It didn’t report what Monahan said to prompt that response. Mayor Bill de Blasio said he wants to speak with both Barbot and Monahan to “understand exactly what happened,” as police unions and a congressman called for Barbot’s firing. A spokesman for the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene confirmed “there was a heated exchange between the two where things were said out of frustration, but no harm was wished on anyone.” The department said Barbot had apologized to Monahan “for her contribution to the exchange.” CONTACT US 825 Third Ave., Gallipolis, OH, 45631 Thank You 740-446-2342 EDITOR Beth Sergent, Ext. 1992 bsergent@aimmediamidwest.com MANAGING EDITOR Sarah Hawley, Ext. 2555 shawley@aimmediamidwest.com SPORTS EDITOR Bryan Walters, Ext. 2101 bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com To the voters of Gallia County &Žƌ�LJŽƵƌ�ĐŽŶƟ�ŶƵĞĚ�ƐƵƉƉŽƌƚ�ĂƐ�LJŽƵƌ Gallia County Coroner ADVERTISING DIRECTOR Matt Rodgers, Ext. 2095 mrodgers@aimmediamidwest.com CIRCULATION MANAGER Derrick Morrison, Ext. 2097 dmorrison@aimmediamidwest.com OH-70186960 REGIONAL VICE PRESIDENT/ GROUP PUBLISHER Lane Moon lmoon@aimmediamidwest.com Dr. Dan Whiteley Ohio Valley Publishing SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES Inward cheer makes world brighter Consider if you will the proverb: “All the days of the afflicted are evil, but the cheerful of heart has a continual feast (Proverbs 15:15; ESV).” The word “evil,” in this context does not mean wicked, but rather unpleasant and hurtful. That is, if you are a person who is “afflicted,” all your days are unhappy and full of woe. Some might think that this seems like something that should go without saying: if bad things are Jonathan happening to you, you are having a McAnulty bad day. Yet this misses the actual thrust of what the Bible is trying to Contributing Columnist teach us. The “afflictions” which trouble us, in this case, are not outward afflictions, but rather inward turmoil and the second half of the saying helps us to see this more clearly. The one who is cheerful always has plenty and then some: “a continual feast.” The order of the thought here is important, because a lot of people would reverse it so that the one with a “continual feast” is going to be cheerful. But the proverbs is actually trying to teach us something different. Our outward circumstances, or at least our reception of those circumstances, is entirely dependent upon our inward attitude. More than a few people go through life convinced that their outward condition is what determines their inward attitude. That is, if good things are happening to them, they will be cheerful, but if bad things happen to them, they will be unhappy and downcast. Thus, it is assumed, the key to happiness is to continually ensure good things are happening, and to avoid those things that might be problematic. One of the lessons of the Bible, however, is that our inward attitude has little or nothing to do with what is going on around us. Rather, if we have an inward attitude of affliction, then we will perceive most things to be burdensome and a heartache. If we have an inward cheerfulness, then we will tend to perceive most things to be worth celebrating. Take for example, the occasion of having company over to visit. The afflicted soul will notice the amount of work needed to prepare, the cost of the food, the loudness of the guests, the increased heat in the house from the additional bodies, the loss of sleep from entertaining too long, and any number of other hardships that might come with having someone come to your house. The cheerful soul will notice the opportunity to put the house in better order, the joy of eating with others, the cheer of shared times, and the happiness of the occasion. The event, the work, and the cost all remain the same, but the focus determines how well the occasion is enjoyed. Or even, consider a period of illness and suffering. The afflicted soul will notice the pain, the fatigue, and the threat of death. The cheerful soul might rather notice the attention of those caring for them, the beauty of the flowers sent, or, if a Christian, there might even be joy and optimism at the thought of one’s own mortality, understanding that, in the words of the apostle, “it is far better to depart and be with Christ (Philippians 1:23).” Taking this thought a step further, one other thing God sometimes reminds us of is the idea that our inward attitude is largely a matter of choice and habit. In the Bible we read such commands as, “whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him (Colossians 3:17),” or,” rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice (Philippians 4:4),” or, “let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful (Colossians 3:15).” Yet if our attitude is not a choice, then such commands make no sense, and are somewhat capricious and cruel on the part of God. As with all habits, the more we practice, the easier it gets to do a thing. Unfortunately, this means for many that they are quite practiced in being afflicted. But Christ gives us reason for optimism, telling us, for instance, “in the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world (John 16:33; ESV).” If we have faith in the triumph of Christ, and our eventual triumph at His side, there is every good reason to always be cheerful. And the more we practice being cheerful and thankful, the easier it will be. So, next time the world seems to be filled with nothing but suffering and every evil thing, take a moment to think about your attitude towards what is going on around you. Chances are good that if you can learn to focus on the positive, being inwardly cheerful, filled with the hope that God wants you to have in Christ, the world will be brighter and better. And if you don’t yet have the hope that Christ offers, then learn how to receive it, so you will have a true reason to be thankful and joyful.

It’s easy to say yes, but let’s think about that question for a second. How does Jesus know that you love Him? What can you do to show Jesus that you love Him? Those are hard questions to answer, but Jesus tells His Disciples the answer in John 14: 21, “Those who really love Me are the ones who not only know My commandments but also obey them. My Father will love such people, and I will love them. I will make Myself known to them.” It isn’t enough just to say we love Jesus. Instead, we have to show God our love by DOING the right things – just like you show your love to your parents, your brothers and sisters, your friends, and even your pets. And what is wonderful is that God has sent the Holy Spirit (the Bible verses here call it the Spirit of Truth) to help us do what we should and be with us always. So, what are some things we can do to show our love for Jesus? The Bible is always the best place to find the answer. In my readings this week, I found some ways the Bible says that we can show our love for Jesus and their scripture references. They are: 1. Love one another. (John 13:34-35) The Apostle John teaches and tell Him what’s Jesus wants us going on in our life to be kind and – our hopes, our thoughtful to dreams, and our everyone, not problems. 5. Read just people we His Word. (Psalm like. 2. Worship 119:11) There are Him. (Luke 4:8) many children’s Worship God the Ann Bibles and books Father and Jesus Moody the Son. Luke says Contributing of Bible stories. Psalm 119 suggests we should praise columnist we must read the God through Bible for ourselves worship. This is or let someone read its one reason why we go stories to us, so we can to church. 3. Tell others learn about God and about Jesus. (Acts 1:8) Jesus. 6. Forgive others as This verse tells us not you forgive us. (Matthew to be afraid to tell our friends about our friend, 6:15) We know Jesus died and rose again, so we Jesus. 4. Talk to Him daily in prayer. (Matthew could be forgiven when 26:41) The Apostle Mat- we mess up. The Bible thew says Jesus wants us says here we must forgive others in the same way to talk to Him every day when they mess up too. It isn’t always easy to do all those things, but Jesus knows that and knows when we are trying our best. Plus, the Holy Spirit will be there to help us too. Jesus loves us and that will never change no matter what. Try to show Him your love by loving others and doing what is right, especially now when we are all staying home and probably a little scared about things. Remember to be patient with each other. We are all struggling with what’s going on around us including your parents and siblings. Let’s say a prayer together. Heavenly Father, we are quick to say that we love You, but we know that we need to show our love too. Help us to show our love for You in the same ways You show Your love for us by doing good. We would also pray for and give thanks for those on the front lines helping those who are sick. They are truly showing Your love in a special way for all of us to witness. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen. Ann Moody is pastor of Wilkesville First Presbyterian Church and the Middleport First Presbyterian Church. Viewpoints expressed in the article are the work of the author.

April 30 with a key that read “O = you X = me”. In a ruling issued Thursday, a three-judge panel Man convicted of killing 11 women loses latest appeal with the 8th District Court of Appeals unanimously held that Anthony Sowell failed to present enough evidence that he did not receive a fair trial and that his trial attorneys ineffectively represented him during the penalty phase. The panel also upheld a Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court judge’s 2018 dismissal of Sowell’s petition for post-conviction relief without holding a hearing. The appellate judges also rejected arguments that the death penalty is unconstitutional and that Sowell was barred from hiring enough expert witnesses and investigators to properly defend himself from a death sentence properly. Sowell was convicted in 2011 of killing the women and currently sits on death row at a prison in Chillicothe, although an execution date has not been set. Sowell was also convicted of raping two other women and attempting to rape another.

A spokesman for The Greenbrier on Wednesday said they’ve been contacted by teams but no one has officially signed on to practice there. The resort is owned by West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice. CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Several NFL teams are eyeing a resort owned by West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice as a potential training facility during the coronavirus pandemic, a spokesman for the retreat said Wednesday. The Greenbrier, a lavish resort in southern West Virginia, has previously hosted training camps for New Orleans Saints and the Houston Texans. Although several teams have contacted the resort, no franchise has officially signed on to practice there this year, hotel spokesman Cam Huffman said. Justice, a Republican billionaire thought to be the state’s richest man, bought the resort out of bankruptcy in 2009. The Greenbrier has been closed since March 19 because of the coronavirus pandemic. Built for the Saints, The Greenbrier’s practice facility includes two natural grass practice fields, a synthetic field, and a 55,000-square-foot building with kitchen and dining facilities, meeting rooms, weight and locker rooms, training and physical therapy accommodations. At an elevation of 2,000 feet, the location offers a cooler climate than some NFL teams’ training camps in the summer. The Arizona Cardinals practiced there for a three-day stretch in 2015, though some players warned of some uninvited guests: ghosts. Tony Jefferson, then a Cardinals safety, said he heard “a little voice, it was like a little girl’s voice” on his first night at The Greenbrier. Cornerback Patrick Peterson said some players were so spooked that they began traveling in groups. “I haven’t seen anything, but I do hear some weird noises at night, but I don’t pay no mind to it. I fall right to sleep,” Peterson said. The NFL continues to plan for a preseason and regular season as scheduled, with the season beginning Sept. 10 with Houston at Super Bowl champion Kansas City. The league is conducting its offseason program virtually with training facilities closed because of the pandemic. An annual PGA Tour event at The Greenbrier was scrapped last month when the tour released its new, virus-altered schedule. Turnout for the tournament had lagged and federal See NFL | 10 Baseball head pitches Olympics to MLB, again ROME (AP) — Baseball. In Japan. At the Olympics. For World Baseball Softball Confederation president Riccardo Fraccari, it seems like such a sure home run that he can’t even imagine why anyone wouldn’t want to be involved. No wonder the refusal of Major League Baseball and its players’ association to send top stars to the Tokyo Games has frustrated Fraccari for years. Now, with the Olympics postponed for a full year because of the coronavirus pandemic, and the current MLB season on hold, Fraccari has the unexpected opportunity to make one final pitch to the sport’s biggest league. “Considering the damages from the coronavirus, baseball needs the Olympics now more than ever to boost the sport’s globalization, expansion and mass appeal,” Fraccari said in a recent interview with The Associated Press. “We need to make sure our sport doesn’t get trampled over by other sports that are becoming more popular with younger audiences,” Fraccari said from Switzerland. “The coronavirus is going to make us understand how important the Olympics are for baseball and softball.” The only MLB players permitted to play in the Premier12 tournament last year were those not on 40-man rosters. Not surprisingly considering the rules, the United States finished fourth and failed at its first chance to qualify for the Olympics. MLB, the union and USA Baseball changed the rule in February and said players not on 26-man active rosters or injured lists would be eligible for an Americas qualifying tournament that had been scheduled for Arizona in March before being postponed indefinitely because of the virus. But teams that want to block players have claimed in the past they are unavailable because of nagging injuries. In addition, MLB teams imposed pitch limits on their players who went to the Premier12. While Fraccari wasn’t interested in debating whether MLB teams were unfairly preventing their players from taking part in qualifying, he noted that “it won’t be good” for the sport if the U.S. team doesn’t make it to Tokyo. He added that he is waiting for the “right moment” before talking to MLB. And Fraccari isn’t alone: Former National League MVP Bryce Harper recently called it a “travesty” that MLB refuses to send its top players to the Olympics. “You’re going to grow the game as much as possible and you’re not going to let us play in the Olympics because you don’t want to (lose) out on money for a two-week period?” Harper said on the Barstool Sports podcast. “OK, that’s dumb.” With the World Baseball Classic pushed back from 2021 to 2023, the Tokyo Games represent the sport’s only major international competition for several years. “Why does soccer want to be in the Olympics? It’s obvious: because the Olympics — despite everything — is still the biggest event on the planet,” Fraccari said. “(The Olympics) is going to help revive the profile of baseball worldwide.” The 2008 Beijing Games marked the last time that men’s baseball and women’s softball were contested at the Olympics, after the IOC voted in 2005 to remove them. As separate bids, the two sports failed to return for the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. A move promoted by Fraccari to consolidate baseball and softball into one confederation in 2013 helped achieve reinstatement for the Tokyo Games as one of five additional sports. See MLB | 10 Carlos Osorio | AP fIle Fox Sports broadcasters Adam Alexander, left, Jeff Gordon, center, and Darrell Waltrip are shown on pit row before the 2019 NASCAR Cup race at Michigan International Speedway in Brooklyn, Mich. NASCAR will have a much different feel when it resumes this weekend as the two-man broadcast team for Fox will not travel to Darlington Raceway and instead call the race from a studio in Charlotte. Fox calling NASCAR race from studio CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Jeff Gordon thought his wife, a former model, was kidding when she asked the NASCAR Hall of Famer to color her graying roots. He realized she was serious after the third request, FaceTimed her regular stylist and took a crash course in mixing color. “Those are the types of things we do when we are in quarantine,” Gordon said Wednesday. “There are things that you do to keep the glue together, to keep everybody healthy and sane. So if having gray hair stresses her out, then I am happy to contribute.” The adjustments will continue Sunday when NASCAR resumes its schedule at Darlington Raceway in South Carolina. Gordon, now in his fifth season as part of Fox Sports’ broadcast team, will not be at the track. He and Mike Joy will call the race from a studio in Charlotte and Regan Smith will be the only at-track reporter for the broadcast team, working the pits. Larry McReynolds, an analyst, will also work from the Charlotte studio. NASCAR is l imiting the number of people at the track to only those essential to compete and broadcast the race, so Fox will have a dramatically reduced roster and use a high-speed custom-built drone that can offer more perspectives than usual since fans won’t be in the stands. The Fox team is still finalizing its approach, but expects to use instant messaging with crews to glean the critical information Gordon and Joy need to properly call a race. Gordon and Joy spent the last two months calling iRacing events from a studio, so they have some experience with broadcasting remotely. Still, they will be winging some things as they adapt to watching the race on monitors instead of describing what’s unfolding right in front of them at the track. “I’m just excited that the opportunity is there for NASCAR and motorsports,” Gordon told The Associated Press. “We are always comparing our sport to others but now we really get to really talk about the uniqueness of our sport and showcase that, because that is what is giving us this opportunity when other sports are going to be more delayed. “Motorsports is fortunate to have this opportunity. I am more excited to see that in action, but I think everybody is nervous. Normally in a broadcast we have practice, we have qualifying, we get to work some things. This is going to be ‘Boom,’ just like the drivers and the teams. They are going to get in the car and drop the green flag and it is on, and for us it is going to be the same thing.” NASCAR’s return will be conducted in just one day, with qualifying and practices canceled for a consolidated schedule. A random draw will be used to help set the field at Darlington — positions 1-12 will be set by a random draw from teams in those positions in owner points, followed by a draw for teams in positions 13 through 24, and finally another draw for teams ranked between 25th and 36th. The final four slots will go to non-chartered teams based on order of owner points. The field will be frozen for a competition caution on Lap 30 and only the top 20 cars will be allowed to pit on that lap. The other 20 cars will pit on the next lap. Gordon, a four-time NASCAR champion ranked third in all-time victories, applauded the new approaches the sanctioning body is taking as it attempts to restart the season. There are at least two Wednesday night races coming up, with the field May 20 at Darlington set by the finishing order of Sunday’s race — with a twist: The top 20 finishers Sunday will be inverted for Wednesday’s starting lineup. With so much happening and NASCAR being the first major sports league with a nationally televised event, Gordon recognizes the responsibility he and Joy have to set the right tone. Gordon was a driver in NASCAR’s first race back after the Sept. 11 attacks in 2001 when Dale Earnhardt Jr. won in Dover, Delaware, and set an iconic image for the nation by waving the American flag out his window during his celebration. “These are unique and challenging times and I hope that people that tune in are tuning in because they recognize the importance that sports play in our every day life,” Gordon said. “I think it can show hope. I think there’s going to be a lot of eyeballs on this event to see how it’s going to play out and how it’s going to be able to continue after this, and what that means for our country as people are trying to figure out how they are going to get back to work or normalcy or school and what life is going to look like over the next year. If a sporting event like this can happen, then, what’s the next step?” �SPORTS 10 Friday, May 15, 2020 Ohio Valley Publishing OVP SPORTS BRIEFS Jim Marshall Memorial golf outing JACKSON, Ohio — The Veterans Association at the University of Rio Grande will host their 3rd annual Jim Marshall Memorial Golf Tournament on Saturday, June 13, at Franklin Valley Golf Course in Jackson County.

Florida governor willing to host teams TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Florida is willing to be a restart site for professional sports leagues, just like Arizona, when play resumes following shutdowns caused by the new coronavirus. “One thing I am going to do, probably this week, is all professional sports are welcome here for practicing and for playing,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said during a news conference Wednesday. “Now, we’re not going to necessarily have fans.” Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey said a day earlier that his state is open to games without spectators for all the major sports starting Saturday.

With baseball Japan’s most popular team game, ticket demand for the Olympic tournament was unprecedented — at least until the games were postponed to 2021. And Nippon Professional Baseball scheduled a break starting July 21 through Aug. 13 to allow to players to compete in the Olympics. “Let me say this: It’s been a huge success,” Fraccari said. “It’s obvious and natural that baseball — being the main sport in Japan — has this type of success.” Under the original competition schedule for the Tokyo Games — which is expected to be duplicated for the new dates — softball was given the honor of being the first sport played with a tripleheader slated for two days before the opening ceremony. The opening softball and baseball games were scheduled for the Fukushima Azuma Stadium as a tribute to the recovery of the area from the March 2011 earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disasters. Then both sports move to the 35,000-seat Yokohama Stadium near Tokyo. “This is an example of how important baseball and softball are in Japan,” Fraccari said. “The state is using the sport as an incentive for recovery from the Fukushima disaster. It’s something exceptional for them.” Besides Japan, which qualifies as the host nation, only three other teams have secured places in the baseball tournament. Israel was the surprise winner of the Africa/Europe qualifying event, while South Korea and Mexico earned spots during the Premier12. The last two nations in the six-team tournament will come from the Americas tournament and a final qualifying event in Taiwan. Australia, Canada, Italy, Japan, Mexico and the United States qualified for the softball tournament. While baseball and softball won’t be contested at the 2024 Paris Olympics, the sports hope to be back for Los Angeles in 2028 if the IOC revises the number of total additional athletes allowed.
