OHIO STATE BRIEFS

$5M bond set for man charged
with shooting police dog
CANTON (AP) — A judge has set a $5 million
bond for a man charged with fatally shooting a police
dog that’s being hailed as a hero in the northeast Ohio
city of Canton.
Twenty-two-year-old Kelontre Bareﬁeld is charged
with aggravated burglary and assaulting or harassing
a police dog. No record of any attorney for Bareﬁeld
could be found.
Canton police say the 3-year-old German shepherd
named Jethro died Sunday after being wounded during an investigation of a grocery store break-in. Police
say Bareﬁeld shot Jethro three times. The dog’s police
handler returned ﬁre and shot Bareﬁeld in the leg.
Bareﬁeld remained hospitalized Monday.
About 80 people held a vigil for Jethro on Sunday
outside police headquarters. Police Chief Bruce
Lawver says he thinks Jethro is a hero who saved lives.

planned to hold a hearing on the bill.
Supporters say the bill helps address solvency issues with
the system so Ohio is better prepared in case of a recession.
But advocates say it would “dismantle” an effective poverty prevention program. Among other changes, it would
cut the number of weeks that a person could get jobless
beneﬁts. The coalition wants a committee of employers,
state ofﬁcials and others to further explore such changes.
Sponsoring Rep. Barbara Sears says she has no plans to
scrap the bill.

Experts to evaluate human
remains found on sidewalk

AKRON (AP) — An anthropology team is helping
with the investigation of human skeletal remains discovered on a sidewalk in northeastern Ohio.
Akron police and ﬁre crews responding to multiple
911 calls Friday about a skull on a sidewalk near a vacant
lot also found a spine in the area.
Akron police said a forensic anthropologist with the
Summit County Medical Examiner’s Ofﬁce was called to
the scene.
Ofﬁcials say forensics experts will evaluate the remains
to determine sex, race and identity. They say that can be

the Academy Award nominees are revealed.
Alejandro Inarritu’s
“The Revenant” won
awards in the drama
category for best picture
and best actor for star
Leonardo DiCaprio, who
seems to be on a path to
an Oscar for his portrayal
of the 1820s fur trapper
Hugh Glass.
Inarritu, whose “Birdman” swept the Oscars
last year, also beat out
“The Martian’s” Ridley
Scott for the best director
award. “The Martian” did
win best comedy ﬁlm and
best actor in a comedy
for star Matt Damon.
The dubious placement
of “The Martian” in the
comedy category was a
running joke throughout
the evening — even Scott
questioned it as he walked
on stage to accept the best
picture award.
But a win is a win, and
although this awards season is far from predetermined, neither “The Martian” nor “The Revenant”
were considered real frontrunners, especially against
nominees like “Spotlight,”
‘’Carol,” ‘’Mad Max: Fury
Road,” and “The Big
Short.”
“Spotlight,” the factbased drama about The
Boston Globe’s investigation into sex abuses in the
Catholic Church has been

the one favorite throughout the season in both
critics and guild awards.
While it is considered a
lock for a Best Picture
nomination on Thursday,
the ﬁlm apparently did
not win the favor of the
Hollywood Foreign Press
Association and received
no awards on Sunday.
Adam McKay’s starstudded ﬁnancial collapse
comedy “The Big Short”
also walked away empty
handed, despite some rising awards momentum
lately with recent Producers Guild and Writers
Guild nominations. Critics
darlings “Carol” and “Mad
Max: Fury Road” were surprisingly shut out as well.
But all will come
into focus on Thursday
when Oscar nominees
are announced. Voting
for Oscar nominations
closed on Friday, but the
campaigning won’t end
until the actual ceremony
on Feb. 28. Any added
momentum helps, even if
Gervais joked at the start
of the show that the award
is “a bit of metal that
some confused old journalist wanted to give you
to meet you in person and
take a selﬁe.”
Gervais’ snark aside,
the Golden Globes have
worked for years to shed
an image of eccentric
selections made by a

group of little-known
international journalists.
The Globes have instead
grown into one of the
most popular award show
broadcasts of the year,
thanks to increasingly
credible nominees, its
trademark relaxed atmosphere and its unique
position as a major awards
show that honors both
ﬁlm and television.
Despite some outliers
in the nominee ranks, the
ﬁlm acting awards went
to a more expected lot.
Jennifer Lawrence won
best actress in a comedy
for “Joy,” her third Golden
Globe win for a David
O. Russell ﬁlm, who she
thanked effusively in her
speech. She also beat out
her friend Amy Schumer
in the category.
“She’s gonna be ﬁne,”
Lawrence said backstage.
“She’s funny and hilarious
and will win many things.”
In what is probably the
year’s most competitive
category, best actress in a
drama, Brie Larson won
out over Cate Blanchett
(“Carol”) and Saoirse
Ronan (“Brooklyn) for her
affecting performance as
a woman in captivity in
“Room.” Last year’s winner Julianne Moore (“Still
Alice”) went on to win the
Oscar as well.
Awards race dark horse
“Steve Jobs” also got

some love on Sunday with
wins for Kate Winslet, for
best supporting actress,
and Aaron Sorkin, for the
screenplay.
Sylvester Stallone
knocked out some heavyweight competition, too,
in the supporting actor
category with a win for
“Creed,” beating out
Idris Elba (“Beasts of
No Nation”), Michael
Shannon (“99 Homes”),
Mark Rylance (“Bridge of
Spies”), and Paul Dano
(“Love &amp; Mercy”). The
crowd greeted his win
with a standing ovation.
“I want to thank my
imaginary friend Rocky
Balboa for being the best
friend I ever had,” said
Stallone, whose only other
Golden Globes nod was
also for portraying the
Italian Stallion in “Rocky.”
Despite some diversity
in the nominee ranks, the
ﬁlm acting awards were
still won exclusively by
Caucasians, rousing some
worry that the Oscars
may follow suit despite
increased scrutiny after
last year’s #OscarsSoWhite criticisms.
Best foreign language
ﬁlm went to Hungary’s
Laszlo Nemes’ “Son of
Saul,” a harrowing view
of life inside Auschwitz,
and best animated ﬁlm
went to Pixar’s acclaimed
“Inside Out.”

As Powerball
jackpot rises,
so will scams
Staff Report

COLUMBUS — Ohio Attorney General Mike
DeWine warns state residents to avoid lottery and
sweepstakes scams as the estimated Powerball
jackpot climbs above the $1 billion
mark.
In the past month, the Ohio
Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Section has received more
than two dozen complaints involving sweepstakes or prize scams.
The average reported loss is about
DeWine
$5,000.
“If you receive a call saying you’ve
won the lottery, it’s almost always a scam,” DeWine said. “Con artists play on what’s in the news,
so we’re warning people to be wary of scams as
the Powerball jackpot grows.”
The scams often begin with a phone call or a letter claiming the consumer has won a few million
dollars through a lottery or sweepstakes. In order
to collect the winnings, consumers are told to wire
a few hundred or a few thousand dollars to cover
fees or taxes. In reality, they haven’t won a prize,
and any money they send will be lost.
Individuals who send money once usually will
be contacted again and asked to send more money
to cover taxes, customs fees, or other costs supposedly associated with delivering the winnings.
As long as the victim continues to send money,
the scam artist will keep calling.
Signs of a lottery scam include:Winning a lottery you don’t remember entering.
Receiving calls from a lottery or government
agency saying you’ve won millions.
Receiving an unexpected check for a few thousand dollars.
Having to pay a fee to collect your winnings.
Having to send money via wire transfer or prepaid card.
DeWine encourages consumers to take the following steps to avoid scams:Be very skeptical of
someone who calls you and says you’ve won the
lottery. These calls are almost always scams.
Don’t wire money or pay a fee to receive your
winnings.
Don’t give out your personal information to
someone who contacts you unexpectedly over the
phone or through email.
Be skeptical if you are asked to call an out-ofcountry phone number in connection with a lottery or sweepstakes win.
Be skeptical if you receive an unexpected check
for a few thousand dollars. It could be a counterfeit check used as part of a scam.
If you have older relatives or friends, look for
signs that they have been targeted by lottery
scams. Red ﬂags include unusual banking activities, wire transfer receipts, or an increased number of phone calls made to them.
Consumers should report potential scams to the
Ohio Attorney General’s Ofﬁce at www.OhioAttorneyGeneral.gov or by calling 800-282-0515.

paying for veterinary care. The
funds will allow the MCHS to
assist numerous owners who
approach the organization for help
with a diverse range of veterinary
issues.
“For example,” Baer said, “in
the past, the county veterinarians
treated an adult cat suffering from
an acute upper respiratory infection with oxygen and antibiotics,
and a kitten afﬂicted with severe
intestinal parasites and an infected
eye was cured with medication.
Also helped was a small mixedbreed dog taken in as a stray the
year before whose tumor was
removed, ensuring that she would
have many more years with her
family.”

She added: “Owners who can
show proof of low income, such
as a food stamp or Medicaid card,
Social Security Disability or unemployment veriﬁcation will qualify
for help with ARP. The Meigs
County Humane Society and the
Banﬁeld Foundation wish to alleviate owners’ stress and help keep
these dependent dogs and cats
with their families, so they can lead
long happy lives.”
The MCHS, which relies on
income from the Meigs County
Humane Society Thrift Shoppe in
Middleport, as well as donations
and membership dues, to ﬁnance
its programs, can also help with
spay/neuter assistance and with
securing food for pets of families in
crisis. All are welcome to visit and
donate items or funds to the Thrift
Shoppe, which has a new and permanent home at 253 N. Second
Avenue in Middleport.

Baer said: “We ask county
residents to support our thrift
shop and become members of the
society, and in this way, assist
us in making lives better for the
county’s animals. Not only does the
shop help fund our activities, but
it also serves as a clearinghouse
for animal welfare issues. People
interested in any of our programs,
including assistance from ARP
should visit the shop or call 9926064 or 992-6060.”
The MCHS also employs, with
the county, a part-time Humane
Ofﬁcer who answers all calls about
cruelty, abuse, and neglect and he
can be reached at 992-6060. All
concerns about stray or dogs running at large should be directed to
the Meigs County Dog Shelter at
992-3779.

THEIR VIEW

Class divide
mirrors America
The growing class divide on airplanes feels a lot
like America’s.
I recently had the occasion to ﬂy ﬁrst class. As
a poet and director of a small non-proﬁt organization, this was a rare treat indeed. So why couldn’t
I enjoy myself?
It started with the warm nuts.
I’d settled in with my free cocktail, having mastered the complicated mechanism for the little
drink tray that comes out of the arm,
suffering the disdain of my obviously well-practiced seat mate. The
ﬂight attendant called me by name
in soothing, dulcet tones.
And then they arrived: a substantial bowl of warm, salted mixed
nuts — the fancy selection, with no
peanuts.
Sarah
We hadn’t even taxied onto the
Browning runway. I felt bad for the other
Contributing travelers and the sad little packet of
Columnist
roasted peanuts they’d get later in
the ﬂight, if they were lucky. Some
airlines aren’t even giving those out
anymore.
Then came the hot meal, more drinks, and the
huge warm chocolate chip cookie — followed by a
blanket, a pillow, and a warm washcloth.
It’s not that I begrudge ﬁrst-class passengers
their extras. But the excess, along with the rich
chicken primavera, was giving me indigestion.
The indulgences those seven other ﬁrst-class passengers and I got came at the expense of everyone
else ﬂying that day. It felt too familiar.
It felt like America.
According to the Center for Budget and Policy
Priorities, the income share of America’s wealthiest 1 percent has climbed steadily since the 1970s,
reaching levels not seen since the days of Gatsby.
Yet while the rich have gotten much, much richer,
the rest of us are much less comfortable than we
were even a few short decades ago.
I remember ﬂying in the ’70s, as a teenager. We
all got blankets and free meals and pillows. On a
ﬂight across the country to visit my grandmother,
the ﬂight attendants even got on the microphone
to help us while away the time, offering a free
bottle of wine to the ﬁrst person to show them an
American ﬂag.
It’s not that the coach passengers — of the plane
or of our economy — are less deserving. Worker
productivity has actually gone up since the ’70s.
But workers haven’t reaped the beneﬁts.
Instead, virtually all of the added wealth has
gone into the pockets of the prosperous few: corporate CEOs, hedge fund magnates, and “super
managers,” whose lives are now staggeringly luxurious, on a scale the rest of us can’t even imagine.
What’s a few warm nuts compared to $250 million
yachts?
So how can we begin to reverse this trend?
Inequality.org, a project of the Institute for Policy
Studies, offers some excellent suggestions, like
shoring up the estate tax so that millionaires and
billionaires actually pay it, and adding a tax on
Wall Street transactions. They’ve done the math:
Even a tax of 0.01 percent per trade would raise
billions for the folks in the economy class.
Then there’s the federal minimum wage, that
tiny pack of roasted peanuts. At $7.25 per hour, or
slightly more than $15,000 per year for a 40-hour
workweek, the federal wage is 24 percent below
where it was half a century ago. Raising that rate
to even $12 per hour would beneﬁt 35 million
workers.
These are modest steps, like borrowing some
almonds from ﬁrst class so the nuts in coach can
be a little more satisfying. But it’s a start. If the
airline had tried that on my ﬂight, maybe my foray
into the lives of the 1 percent wouldn’t have left
me so queasy.

2016 is the year Eastern surges past Lady Lancers, 57-43
of the Cicadas
By Bryan Walters

bwalters@civitasmedia.com

Bryan Walters | OVP Sports

TUPPERS PLAINS —
A little effort went a long
way.
A 16-2 run over the
ﬁnal 3:14 of the third
quarter provided the
Eastern girls basketball
team all the breathing
room it needed Thursday
night following a 57-43
victory over visiting
Federal Hocking in a TriValley Conference Hocking Division matchup at
the Eagle’s Nest in Meigs
County.
The Lady Eagles (9-3,
7-2 TVC Hocking) found
themselves deadlocked at
20-all at halftime and held
a mere 31-29 edge following a Destiny Tabler
bucket at the 3:31 mark
of the third, but the hosts
suddenly found their
rhythm after turning up
the defensive intensity
over the rest of the frame.
EHS followed with a
10-0 surge for a 41-29
cushion at the 1:40 mark,
then the Green and Gold
ended the period with a
small 6-2 run to secure
a 47-31 advantage. The
Lady Lancers (1-12, 1-8)
trailed by as many as 22
points (55-33) with 4:37
remaining in regulation
and ultimately never
came closer than the ﬁnal
14-point outcome.
Eastern has now won
three straight decisions
and also claimed a season
sweep of Fed Hock after
posting a 76-57 win in the
season opener at Stewart
back on November 30.
EHS coach John Burdette paid tribute to a
respectable effort by the
Lady Lancers, but the
eighth-year frontman was
also a little concerned
about the way his team
handled things in the ﬁrst
half.
“I thought we had gotten over not being able to
play 32 minutes of basketball, but Federal Hocking
came out and hit some
shots and played well in
the ﬁrst half,” Burdette
said. “They had a good
intensity to them in the
ﬁrst half and we just kind
of went with it. To me,
that just feels like a little
bit of a step backwards
for us.
“We have to cut down
on the simple turnovers
and we have to bring that
intensity that we had in
the second half with us
into the start of games
every night. If we play

SOUTH POINT — The Gallia Academy boys basketball team had ﬁve players reach double ﬁgures,
but Tayshaun Fox posted a game-high 32 points while
leading host South Point to a 64-56 victory in an Ohio
Valley Conference matchup in Lawrence County.
The Blue Devils (4-5, 3-3 OVC) dropped their
second straight decision, but the guests started well
after establishing 17-16 lead after eight minutes of
play. The Pointers (4-6, 3-2), however, countered with
a 17-12 run in the second quarter that gave the Blue
and Gold a slim 33-29 edge at the break.
GAHS responded with a small 10-9 run to start
the second half, allowing the guests to close back to
within a possession at 42-39 entering the ﬁnale. Fox
scored 17 fourth quarter points as SPHS made a 22-17
run down the stretch, allowing the hosts to secure the
eight-point triumph.
Miles Cornwell and Justin Peck led Gallia Academy
with 12 points apiece, followed by Wes Jarrell, Kole
Carter and Devin Henry with 10 markers each. Justin
McClelland also had two points for the Blue Devils,
who went 4-of-13 at the free throw line for 31 percent.
Jared Whitt followed Fox with 15 points, while Elijah Adams and Logan Wade respectively added seven
and four markers to the winning cause. Cade Brandt,
Tanner Hill and Caleb Eplion wrapped things up with
two points apiece for SPHS, which went 20-of-33 at
the charity stripe for 61 percent.
The Blue Devils return to action Tuesday when
they travel to Proctorville for an OVC contest against

By Alex Hawley

LOGAN — A road trip to forget.
The Gallia Academy girls basketball
team suffered an 83-43 defeat at the hands
of Southeastern Ohio Athletic League
host Logan, on Saturday afternoon at Jim
Myers Gymnasium in Hocking County.
The Blue Angels (2-9, 0-2 SEOAL)
managed just four points over the opening
eight minutes of play, as Logan (9-6, 2-0)
bolted out to a 17-point lead. The Lady
Chiefs outscored their guest 22-to-7 in the
second period and led 43-11 at halftime.
After the break, Gallia Academy’s
offense came together, as the Blue and
White posted 17 points in the third
quarter. However, LHS posted 19 points
in the third and led 61-28 with eight
minutes to play. Logan out ended the
game with a 22-to-15 run, sealing the
83-43 victory.
GAHS senior Jordan Walker paced
the Blue and White with 15 points,
followed by freshman Hunter Copley
with 12. Adrienne Jenkins posted seven
points, KoKo Higa added four, while
Jalea Caldwell and Kim Edelmann
rounded out the Blue Angel scoring
with three and two points resepectively.
Carly Shriver led Gallia Academy on

Ironically, most animals

Buckeyes fend off Raiders
By Alex Hawley

ahawley@civitasmedia.com

NELSONVILLE — Turnovers a key factor
in Lady Raiders’ fourth straight setback.
The River Valley girls basketball team committed 24 turnovers Thursday night, twice as
many as Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division
host Nelsonville-York, as the Lady Raiders
dropped a 43-31 decision to the Orange and
Brown, in Ben Wagner Gymnasium.
River Valley (7-6, 3-3 TVC Ohio) and
Nelsonville-York (9-3, 5-1) were tied at six
after eight minutes of play, and tied at 12 six
minutes into the second quarter. However,
the Lady Buckeyes scored seven unanswered
points to end the ﬁrst half with a 19-12 lead.
The Silver and Black trimmed the deﬁcit
to 23-19 early in the second half, but NYHS
scored the ﬁnal ﬁve points of the third period
to extent the margin to 28-19.
The Lady Buckeyes connected on three
trifectas to start the ﬁnal quarter, pushing
their lead to 37-21 in the process. RVHS
ended the night on a 10-to-6 run, but it was
too little, too late and the hosts claimed the
43-31 victory.
Courtney Smith paced the Lady Raiders
with a double-double effort of 12 points and
10 rebounds, while Leia Moore scored eight
points and had a team-best three assists. RVHS
senior Shelby Brown — who led the Silver and
Black on defense with three steals — scored
six points in the setback, while Erin Jackson
added three and Tianna Qualls scored two.
River Valley made 13-of-35 (37.1 percent)

free throw attempts in the game, including
2-of-5 (40 percent) of three-point tires. Three
of the Lady Raiders’ four free throw attempts
were successful, all four were taken by
Moore. As a team the Silver and Black had
33 rebounds, four assists, ﬁve steals, and 24
turnovers.
The victors were led by Jessie Addis with
21 points, followed by Camrin Dupler and
Tori Campbell with six each. Mary Kate
McCulloch and Kaitlyn Hurd each had ﬁve
points to round out the NYHS scoring. Hurd
had team-bests in rebounds with seven and
blocks with two, while Sidney Fick led the
Nelsonville-York defense with four steals.
Hurd, Fick, Addis and Kyla Henderson each
had two assists in the win.
NYHS shot 5-of-12 (41.7 percent) from the
free throw line and 16-of-48 (33.3 percent)
from the ﬁeld, including 6-of-15 (40 percent)
from beyond the arc. The Lady Buckeyes
totaled 27 rebounds, 10 assists, 12 steals, two
blocks and 12 turnovers.
The Lady Raiders — who were 4-0 away
from home on prior Thursday — will look to
avenge this loss on February 4, in the regular
season ﬁnale at RVHS. River Valley returns
to action on Monday, when the Silver and
Black travel to Meigs for a TVC Ohio showdown. MHS, which is 6-7 overall and 2-4 in
league, suffered a 57-28 loss at River Valley
on December 3, however, the Lady Marauders have won ﬁve of their last six contests.

esis for the long periods
between emergences and
for emerging on undividable (prime number)
years is to keep predators
from adjusting to cicada
broods and adjusting
their birth rates accordingly.
People also eat cicadas,
supposedly they are tasty
and chock full of protein
with minimal carbs.
There are numerous
recipes online that will
undoubtedly be useful
in planning your cicada
party (Sorry I can’t make
it; I’m going to be busy
that day). For the record,
they also make great ﬁsh
bait, as I discovered during the 1982 emergence.
Stick a live cicada on a
hook, ﬂip it out onto the
surface of a pond, and
then watch out!
Although they don’t
intentionally bite or sting
people (some people have
reported confused cicadas
trying feed or lay eggs
on them) your trees are
another story. The female
cicadas lay their eggs in
small branches or twigs
and can deﬁnitely cause
them some damage. After
the brood subsides, our
woods and trees will be
full of trees with brown,
dead and dying branch
ends, called ﬂags.
Not many people had
the internet when Brood
V visited last time, but a
quick search of the internet brings up the following recommendations to

that feasted on the adult
cicadas 17 years ago.
For the cicada as a
species, there is safety in
numbers. For birds and
other predators, they are
easy pickings, but they
can’t possibly eat all of
them. The term for this
sort of survival species
is predator satiation, or
overwhelming by sheer
numbers. One hypoth-

protect your trees:
Use netting to protect
small, wimpy trees. Buy it
now and beat the rush.
Put foil around the
trunks of trees to keep
them from climbing up.
Most sites discourage
the use of herbicides to
help prevent collateral
damage to other, beneﬁcial species like bees. Supposedly family pets have
been known to get sick or
die after eating pesticide
covered cicadas.
Larger trees will probably take the cicada
swarm in stride with
little more than ﬂagging
to show for it. Although
the cicadas take nutrients
from the tree roots, they
always add them back to
the ground after they die
– nature works that way.
Hardy native species that have coexisted
on this continent with
cicadas for countless millennia obviously have an
advantage over imported
decorative tree species.
Finally, just accept that
some of your trees are
going to be damaged,
but it probably won’t kill
them. Take comfort in the
knowledge that you won’t
have to worry about them
again until 2033, and by
that time they could be
somebody else’s problem.

with that intensity from the start, it’s a lot tougher for
opposing teams to handle.”
EHS led 10-5 after eight minutes of play, but the
guests countered with a 15-10 second quarter run that
knotted things up at 20-all entering the break. Becca
Pullins gave Eastern a permanent lead with a bucket
at the 7:12 mark of the third, which in turn ignited
a 6-0 run over the opening two minutes for a 26-20
cushion.
Fed Hock whittled the lead down to 28-25 following
a Tabler basket at the 4:23 mark, then the Maroon and
Gold came up with a small 4-3 spurt to close to within
two points with 3:31 remaining in the third. Laura
Pullins scored half of Eastern’s points during that
pivotal 16-2 run that gave the hosts a 16-point lead
headed into the ﬁnale.
Jess Parker and Alyson Bailey paced Eastern with
15 points apiece, followed by Laura Pullins with 13
points and Becca Pullins with eight markers. Kelsey
Casto and Annalisa Boano rounded out the winning
tally with four and two points. The hosts were also
13-of-18 at the free throw line for 72 percent.
Tabler paced the Lady Lancers with 13 points, followed by Hannah Dunfee with nine points and Grace
Beha with eight markers. Kaylli McPherson was next
with four points, while Audrey Blake, Faith BennettWolfe, Olivia Russell and Skylar Hatﬁeld each contributed two markers.
Jordan Gillian had one point to round out the scoring for FHHS, which went 7-of-15 at the charity stripe
for 47 percent.
