Sarah Nott’s Law signed by Tomblin By Beth Sergent bsergent@civitasmedia.com POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — This was a bittersweet week for one local family. West Virginia Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin signed Sarah Nott’s Law on Tuesday, which was the culmination of two years of work for Sarah’s parents, Rusty and Brenda, of Point Pleasant. Shortly after learning the governor had signed the bill into law, Brenda passed away Thursday after a long illness. Sarah was killed in March 2014. She had stopped at a convenience store on W.Va. 2 to buy something to eat and when leaving the establishment, her Nott line of sight was obscured by vehicles that were parked in a way the Notts vehemently maintained was illegal near the roadway. With traffic backing up behind her, Sarah attempted to ease on to the roadway when she was hit in her lane and later died from injuries sustained in the accident. This new law applies to areas or entrances to commercial driveways, businesses and industrial properties, which have an entrance wider than 50 feet, and where those entrances join a road where the speed limit is 45 mph or more. It calls for no-parking signs, or paint to denote no parking, or both. These signs and markings will be in the areas where parking is prohibited so as to maintain a line of sight for drivers. It also allows for misdemeanor fines if found in violation of the law. The no-parking markings and signs, will also assist law enforcement in ticketing drivers and alerting drivers of where the state highway right-of-way ends.

OHIO VALLEY — Meigs County Sheriff Keith Wood is urging citizens to use caution when driving home in the evenings. Wood reports that his office is investigating two robberies that had occurred this week. The Meigs County Sheriff’s Office received a call last night from a female stating that a car had followed her to her residence on Bailey Run Road in Pomeroy from Gallipolis. The vehicle stopped at the end of her driveway as she pulled into her residence and a male asked for directions. As the female was attempting to help the male, the suspect attempted to steal her purse. The male suspect was unsuccessful in his attempt to steal the purse as the victim’s husband intervened. On March 28, the Meigs County Sheriff’s Office received its first call of an incident such as this. Wood reports that his office received a phone call from a female stating she was coming home from work from Gallipolis in the early morning hours when she noticed a car was following her. The female informed officers GALLIPOLIS — A Columbus man was sentenced to 30 months in prison after having pleaded guilty March 29 to having a weapon under disability, a third-degree felony. Dominique Granger, 27, chased a man to Robbie’s BP station store on Jan. Granger 23 at 87 Vine St. in Gallipolis. According to previous information obtained by the Tribune, Gallipolis police were dispatched to the area around 9:45 p.m. the day of the crime. Dispatchers told police a man wearing a hoodie and brandishing a gun had chased another individual into the store. The victim reportedly shouted to others inside the building that he was being chased and that he thought Granger was going to fire at him. One individual ducked to the floor and remained there until he left. Supposedly, Granger pointed his gun at other individuals in the store as well. The man who was originally chased in to the building barricaded himself in the bathroom. Granger soon left.

Bennett became a lawyer and served as Weston’s first mayor in 1842, Adler added. In 1857, as first auditor for Virginia, Bennett used his influence to get the Virginia Legislature to locate the TransAllegheny Lunatic Asylum in Weston. He also oversaw the construction of a branch railroad to connect to the main rail line running through the state.

Kasich is hoping to win the nomination in an open convention in Cleveland this July. Portman said he supports sticking to the rules and having “a fair process,” and thinks that leaves the potential opening for Kasich. “If he (Trump) doesn’t have the majority going in, then I think the delegates ought to have the ability to do what the rules provide, which is during the second ballot, to be free to choose who they think the right person is. “And again, I think John Kasich has made a really good point. Not only does he have the experience, and record, but he also … has a very good chance to win in a general election,” Portman said. Portman said he’s making arrangements to meet with Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland, possibly as soon as next week. He said he was looking forward to the meeting, but thinks a confirmation process would face an “ugly,” highly partisan fight in a political year, and should wait. Portman was visiting the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health facility in Cincinnati.

When you become an organ donor, your own life could go on to give new life to so many in need. Every 10 minutes, a new person is added to the waiting list for organ transplants. In fact, each day, an average of 79 people receive a transplant, but an additional 22 waiting people die because of the shortage of donated organs. You could help change those numbers. Each April, Pleasant Valley Hospital is proud to celebrate National Organ Donation Month. During this time, we honor the tremendous generosity of those who have saved lives by becoming organ, tissue, marrow, and blood donors. Join us alongside recipients, living donors, donor families, and community members at our annual Donate Life Event scheduled for 1-2 p.m. April 6 in the PVH main lobby. It’s important to know that your age or past medical history may not be a barrier to organ donation. Anyone can be a potential donor. And be sure to communicate your wishes clearly with your loved ones so your wishes can be respected. Most importantly, your life and memory will go on thanks to your generous gift — and it will likely extend far beyond our incredible community.

Social Security has many tools to help you plan for your future. A great first step is to visit www.socialsecurity. gov/myaccount. With a my Social Security account, you’ll get immediate access to your personal Social Security Statement, your earnings record, and an estimate of your retirement benefits at age 62, at your full retirement age, and at age 70. You can also verify your earnings are correct, since we base your future benefits on your earnings record. When you open a my Social Security account, we protect your information by using strict identity verification and security features. The application process has built-in features to detect fraud and confirm your identity.

For example, in the District of Columbia and several states, you can request a replacement Social Security card online — find out if you can at www. socialsecurity.gov/ssnumber. In addition to using your personal my Social Security account, you can prepare for a secure, comfortable retirement by visiting www.myra.gov. There, you’ll find myRA, a new retirement savings option from the Department of the Treasury for the millions of Americans who face barriers to saving for retirement. myRA is a simple and secure way to help you take control of your future. myRA makes it easy and affordable to start saving for retirement, even if you can save only a little bit right now. It’s designed for people who don’t have a retirement savings plan through work, or lack other options for saving. If you already have access to a retirement savings plan, such as a 401(k), learn more about that plan because it might offer matching contributions or other benefits. myRA helps workers grow their money faster than they can with most traditional savings accounts, and there’s no risk. Since it’s not tied to a particular employer, workers can hold on to their myRA account when they move from one job to another. With your personal my Social Security and myRA accounts in place, you too can prepare to reap the joys of a financially secure retirement.

But that should not be an excuse for hiding information from the American people about what we’re doing with drones. Do we want our resources spent on targeted killing programs?

But we’re being kept in the dark. Openness is not a panacea, but it makes good government more likely. Representative democracy depends on our ability to know what’s being done in our name. We cannot exercise the discriminating judgment required of citizens about politics, policies and politicians if we do not know what they’re doing. Nor is it possible to maintain the checks and balances required under our Constitution without openness and transparency. We have to shine a bright light on the actions of public officials so that it’s more likely they’ll act with integrity. Justice Louis Brandeis gave perhaps the most famous formulation of this requirement in his 1913 statement, “[S]unlight is said to be the best disinfectant.” But Judge Damon Keith of the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals put an exclamation point on the idea in a 2002 ruling that the government could not carry out secret deportation hearings without proving the need for secrecy. “Democracies,” he wrote, “die behind closed doors.” Lee Hamilton is a Senior Advisor for the Indiana University Center on Representative Government; a Distinguished Scholar, IU School of Global and International Studies; and a Professor of Practice, IU School of Public and Environmental Affairs.

(AP) — New findings from an economic index indicate that West Virginia is in a recession. The Register-Herald reports that the Mountain State Business Index has found that West Virginia has seen deterioration in economic activities since the spring of 2015. According to the index, current readings remain largely unchanged over many months. The economic recession has been largely a result of the decline in the coal industry. The index found that in March there was a 3.1 percent month-to-month decline in coal production. It also found that there were month-tomonth gains registered for natural gas production. Guilty The index combines seven economic indicators to measure the expected swings in the state’s economic activity. Brian Lego, a West Virginia University research assistant professor of economic forecasting, said coal output fell during the first fiscal quarter of 2016 and will likely continue to decline. He said several other factors have heavily affected coal production, including environmental policy, declining exports, warmer-than-normal winter weather and increased usage of natural gas by electric utilities. Lego said West Virginia “has experienced a sufficiently deep and broad-based-enough drop in activity to suggest the state fell into recession territory by mid-2015.” the investigation.

Rice testified with an Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation agent that the drugs were taken into evidence and tested at a BCI lab. The lab test confirmed the presence of about 8.5 grams of cocaine and .36 grams of heroin. Officers confirmed the cocaine was packaged in 18 little baggies and appeared to be for sale and one package of heroin was likewise found. Isaac testified that most of what was presented by the prosecution was true. Isaac contended that the cocaine and heroin belonged to the males sitting in the backseat of the car with her. She testified they handed her the drugs and she hid them in her bra while the vehicle was being pulled over. The prosecution argued during closing arguments that evidence showed Isaac possessed drugs located on her person at the time of the vehicle his dog, who alerted police to the presence of illegal narcotics in the vehicle. Champlin testified that Isaac was a backseat passenger and once she exited the vehicle, she told Champlin that she had a “lot” of cocaine in her bra.

However, what is even better for Gallia County families is that we were able to take 18 packages of cocaine and one package of heroin off the street,” said Gallia County Prosecutor Jeff Adkins. “We understood from the outset that the trafficking counts were our most difficult to prove,” Wiseman said. “However, we felt that the manner in which the cocaine and heroin were packaged, coupled with the intended round-trip from Dayton to Gallia County, was sufficient evidence to put those charges before the jury. At the end of the day, we thank the jury for considering the evidence presented in such a thoughtful manner and we are very pleased with their two guilty verdicts.” SATURDAY 60° 37° Mostly sunny and warmer NATIONAL CITIES McArthur 52/44 South Shore Greenup 56/47 54/45 36 0 50 100 150 200 Chillicothe 53/46 Lucasville 55/48 Very High Logan 51/45 Adelphi 52/45 Very High Primary: hornbeam, maple, ash Mold: 491 Mostly sunny and cold “The defendant has three prior felony convictions out of Franklin County for robbery, possession of drugs, and having a weapon under a disability,” said Gallia County Prosecutor Jeff Adkins. “Based on the defendant’s prior felony criminal record, he is not permitted under Ohio law to possess a firearm at any time. Further, this defendant caused several employees that day to fear for their safety and their lives based upon the way the defendant was acting and his brandishing of the firearm.” Possessing a weapon under disability generally can be understood that an individual illegally had a firearm despite not being legally allowed to have one because of prior convictions. stop. She had seen her male companions make drug deals earlier in the day and she was not forced or coerced into possessing the drugs. The prosecution further asserted Isaac intended, according to her own testimony, to make a day round-trip about the Point Pleasant and Gallipolis area before heading back to Dayton. The prosecution further said that the manner in which the drugs had been packaged indicated Isaac engaged in trafficking. Defense counsel argued that the real instigators of the crime were the males with Isaac and that they manipulated her. Isaac was cooperative with law enforcement upon exiting the vehicle. The jury conferred for 90 minutes and came back with their verdict. They found Isaac guilty of drug possession and not guilty with the intent of trafficking those said drugs.

Visiting Waterford — which won the Division IV girls basketball state championship three weeks ago — was limited to just two hits as the Eastern softball team rolled to a 17-0 victory Friday night in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division matchup at Don Jackson Field in Meigs County. The Lady Eagles (4-0, 4-0 TVC Hocking) wasted little time in remaining unbeaten, as the hosts scored seven times in the bottom of the first after sending a dozen batters to the plate. EHS tacked on a run apiece in the second and third frames for a 9-0 cushion, then erupted for eight more scores in the bottom of the fourth while securing a commanding 17-run advantage. The Lady Wildcats (2-2, 2-2) produced their third and final baserunner of the game after Eichmiller singled to start the top of the fifth, but a pair of flyouts and a strikeout sealed the deal on the mercy-rule decision.

The Southern softball team rallied back from an early four-run deficit, but host Trimble scored twice in the fifth and eventually held on for an 8-7 decision Thursday night during a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division matchup in Athens County. The visiting Lady Tornadoes (0-3, 0-2 TVC Hocking) led 2-1 midway through the second inning, but a Nikki Kish three-run homer capped the Lady Tomcats’ five-run outburst in the bottom of the second — giving THS (3-0, 3-0) a 6-2 cushion through two complete. SHS plated a run in the third and added three more scores in the fourth to knot things up at six, but the guests left runners stranded at second and third in the fifth and went down in order during the sixth. Trimble, on the other hand, mustered two runs on three hits in its half of the fifth — giving the hosts an 8-6 edge headed into the finale. Paige VanMeter doubled to start the seventh, then scored on a pair of ground outs that allowed SHS to close to within a run at 8-7. Kish, who went the distance for Trimble, followed with a strikeout that ended the narrow one-run outcome. The Lady Tomcats outhit Southern by a 9-6 overall margin, but the hosts also committed five of the seven errors in the contest. Kish was the winning pitcher of record after allowing seven runs, six hits and two walks over seven innings while striking out three. Sydney Cleland suffered the loss after surrendering eight runs, nine hits and two walks over six frames while fanning four. VanMeter, Ali Deem, Hannah Hill, Savannah Bailey, Sierra Cleland and Sydney Cleland each had a hit for the Purple and Gold. Deem drove in a team-high two RBIs, while Hill and VanMeter also plated a run apiece. Deem, Hill, VanMeter, Sabra Bailey, Brandy Porter, Savannah Bailey, Sierra Cleland and Haley Hill also scored a run apiece in the setback. Kaitlyn Spears led Trimble with three hits, followed by Hannah Warren with two safeties. Williams and Ward each scored twice in the triumph.

Wahama soars past Southern By Paul Boggs pboggs@civitasmedia.com RACINE — For the Wahama High School baseball team, it was about as good a week as it gets. That’s because the White Falcons finished off a perfect 4-for-4 week in the TriValley Conference Hocking Division, capping it with a 12-1 win over the host Southern Tornadoes on Friday evening at Star Mill Park in Racine. The win was Wahama’s fourth consecutive, as the White Falcons are now 4-1 — and 4-0 in the TVCHocking. The White Falcons shared the TVC-Hocking championship with Trimble last season. The left loss the Tornadoes at 0-4 — with all games coming within the division. In fact, for those into counting, Wahama has outscored its TVC-Hocking opponents 64-1 — with Southern scoring the only run in the seventh inning on Friday. Otherwise, the White Falcons have blanked Federal Hocking 18-0 (March 26), South Gallia 24-0 (March 30), and Miller 10-0 (March 31). Against Southern, Wahama led 5-0 following six innings, before erupting for seven runs on six hits in the seventh. In all, the White Falcons finished with a dozen runs on a dozen hits, as the Tornadoes committed two errors. Wahama scored twice in the opening and fifth innings, then tacked on a single point in the sixth, prior to the seventh-inning outburst. The Tornadoes finally scored off Wahama pitcher Philip Hoffman , as Clayton Wood tripled to lead off — before scoring on a sacrifice fly by Trey Pickens. Otherwise, Hoffman had things well on cruise control. He tossed a complete game two-hitter, taking his one-hitter into the seventh. He struck out 14, including for all three outs in the second thru fourth frames — and fanning eight in a row in the first thru third. In fact, he had a perfect game going into the fourth, retiring the sides 1-2-3, before Dylan Smith reached on a leadoff error. Hoffman stranded Smith at third, following a pair of passed balls. In the fifth, Billy Harmon had a leadoff single, but Hoffman helped his cause by starting a 1-6-3 double play. In the sixth, Garrett Wolfe was hit by a pitch, but he was caught stealing. Hoffman aided his offensive cause by going 3-for-4 at the plate, as Tyler Grimm went 2-for-4 with a Blue Devils clip Clay in tennis opener By Paul Boggs pboggs@civitasmedia.com PORTSMOUTH — By sweeping the three singles matches, the Gallia Academy High School tennis team captured a season-opening 3-2 win at Portsmouth Clay on Wednesday. The Blue Devils are coming off a 16-1 campaign, but did graduate all three of their singles players, including Connor Christian — a four-time all-Southeastern Ohio Athletic League honoree, a two-time SEOAL Player of the Year, and a Division II district tournament qualifier. Joining Christian at the district meet was fellow senior Joseph Sebastian — an all-SEOAL first-teamer at second singles. Verun Sharma, the Blue Devils’ third singles, was a two-time all-league (2013 and 2015) Honorable Mention pick — and a first-team doubles player two years ago. In capturing the SEOAL championship last season, Gallia Academy went a perfect 8-0. Gallia Academy coach Randy Christian said replacing Christian, Sebastian and Sharma won’t be easy, but believes junior Miles Cornwell, senior Adriana Wilcoxon and sophomore Pierce Wilcoxon are ready to take aim. The Wilcoxons combined for the Blue Devils’ firstdoubles club that qualified for last year’s district tournament and made all-SEOAL. On Wednesday, the three singles swept Clay in straight sets. Pierce Wilcoxon swept Hinze 6-2, 6-1, Cornwell swept Stone 6-2, 6-0, and Adriana Wilcoxon blanked Pack 6-0, 6-0. Both Blue Devils’ doubles teams lost, including the second doubles team of Nathaniel Thomas and Janelle Stevens in three sets (4-6, 7-6, 4-6). The first doubles tandem of Olivia Meadows and MiKayla Edelmann lost 4-6, 4-6. The Blue Devils hosted Unioto for their first home match on Friday, then return to the road on Monday (April 4) for the SEOAL opener at Athens. • Health Net Helicopter • New Car Display • Corn Toss Tournament (1:00 Saturday) • Motorcycle Show (Saturday 1:003:00) • Children’s Activities & Facepainting • Basketball Hoop Shoot Contest • Fingerprinting of Children • Games & Bounce House for Children • Crank-it-up Contest • Live Entertainment (local talent) SCHEDULE SUBJECT TO CHANGE $//2 02):%3 s -!3#/43 REGISTER TO WIN THE GRAND PRIZE! seventh-inning double.

Nutter and Hoffman had hits and runs scored in the first, as Johnson retired the White Falcons 1-2-3 in the second and fourth, sandwiched around facing four batters in the third. In the fifth, Dalton Kearns singled on a bunt and Nutter drew a tw0-out walk, then Hoffman drove them both in for the 4-0 lead.

The Eastern and Waterford baseball teams combined for 27 strikeouts and just 12 hits on Friday night, as the visiting Wildcats came away with a 2-1 victory in 10 innings over their Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division host. The Eagles (3-1, 3-1 TVC Hocking) scored the game’s first run in the bottom of the opening inning, as Owen Arix singled and later scored on Josh Brewer’s two-out single. Waterford (5-2, 5-0) was held scoreless for the first two innings, but the guests broke through in the third frame as Cameron Bosner doubled and came around to score on a two- pboggs@civitasmedia.com CHESHIRE —Indeed, it’s not about how you start, but rather about how you finish. The River Valley High School baseball team jumped out to a 4-1 lead on the visiting Rock Hill Redmen on Thursday, but was outscored 9-0 over the final four innings to fall 10-4 in a non-league tilt. The contest was originally scheduled to be played at Rock Hill, but was moved to River Valley’s Cheshire Field. The loss left the Raiders, which opened the season at 3-0, at 3-2 following back-to-back sixrun losses to Ohio Valley Conference clubs Gallia Academy and Rock Hill. The Raiders scored two runs in the opening inning, followed by single runs in the third and fourth — as the Redmen mustered a run in the second. Sandwiched between a scoreless fourth and final frame, the Redmen scored three runs in the fifth, followed by a six-run eruption in the sixth. The Raiders employed four pitchers — Brycen Brumfield (2 1/3 innings), Justin Sizemore (2 2/3 innings), Austin Ragan (1/3 inning) and Jack Farley (1 2/3 innings). Unfortunately, the River Valley quartet combined to give up a dozen walks and nine hits, with all nine hits and seven walks coming in the final three stanzas. Landon Smith pitched the opening six innings for Rock Hill, recording the win as all but 40 of his 101 pitches went for strikes. He faced the Raider lineup three times through, allowing four earned runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out eight. He retired the side 1-2-3 in the fourth, then faced only four Raiders in the fifth frame. Sean McFann retired the Raiders 1-2-3 in the seventh, including a pair of strikeouts. River Valley was led by Sizemore, who went 3-for-4 with a fifth-inning double, and Brumfield, who went 2-for-3. Sizemore and Jamie Bainter, who walked in the fifth following Sizemore’s double, never advanced beyond second. Brumfield singled in the sixth and advanced to third, but Smith escaped the jam. Lannis Gilbert drew a pair of walks for River Valley — in the second and sixth. The Raiders opened the first on back-to-backto-back singles by Dillon Ragan, Sizemore and Bainter — with Bainter driving in Ragan. Devin McDonald, who singled in the third, had an RBI-groundout to score Sizemore for the early 2-0 lead. After a Redman run, Brumfield led off the second with a single — and scored on three stolen bases. In the third, the Silver and Black gained its largest lead at 4-1 on a Sizemore single, back-to-back stolen bases, and a Bainter RBI-groundout. The Raiders traveled to Athens on Friday for the Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division opener, which marks their second season in the TVC-Ohio. River Valley was also scheduled to host nonleague Ironton on Saturday. Paul Boggs can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2106 By Alex Hawley ahawley@civitasmedia.com out single by Braden Bellville. After six scoreless frames Waterford’s Isaac Huffman drew a base on balls to start the top of the 10th. Clay Hayes came through with a two-out double for the Wildcats, plating Huffman and giving WHS a 2-1 advantage. Eastern was retired in order in the bottom of the 10th and WHS claimed the one-run win. Eastern senior Cameron Richmond suffered the setback, allowing one run on four hits and one walk in four innings of relief work. EHS starting pitcher Austin Coleman gave up one run on three hits and two walks in six innings on the mound. Richmond struck out six Wildcats, while Coleman fanned 10. Coleman led the Eagles at the plate with one double and one single in three at-bats, while Brewer was 2-for-4 with two singles and a run batted in. Arix was 1-for-4 with a single and a run scored in the setback. Bosner led the guests offensively, going 3-for-4 with two doubles, one single and one run scored, while Bellville was 3-for-5 with three singles and one RBI. Hayes went 1-for-5 with one double and one RBI in the win, while Huffman scored one run. Eastern will look for redemption on April 20, when these teams collide in Washington County. The Eagles — who clashed with Meigs in a non-conference double header on Saturday — continue non-league play on Tuesday when Nelsonville-York visits Tuppers Plains.

Wild Turkey: Conservation success The past few mornings as I have walked out my back door into the pre-dawn twilight, I have been greeted by the booming echo of male wild turkeys, gobbling loudly, competing for mates. It occurred to me that my grandparents, when they were my age, although they would have definitely recognized the sound of turkeys gobbling, would not have dreamed that they were hearing wild turkeys. Fifty years ago, the only wild turkey to be found in our neck of the woods was on the liquor store shelf. The Eastern Wild Turkey, Meleagris Gallopavo, was very familiar to the indigenous people of the Ohio Country, and to the settlers who followed. They were found throughout the entire state, but unregulated subsistence hunting and destruction of the old-growth forests took such a toll on the birds that they were considered completely extirpated by 1904, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources’ Division of Wildlife. If you enjoy watching these large birds, consider thanking a sportsman.

Rutt stole second and third, but was left stranded there. In the fifth, Reagan Rucker started the inning for Eastern, but walked Izak Luther and Wade Luther, sandwiched around his two strikeouts. Colton Coughenour walked to load the bases, and an error off Bryan’s bat allowed Izak Luther to score to avert the shutout. Rucker then walked Rutt, allowing Wade Luther to cross home for the second run. Chase Curtis came in from equipment to hunt wild turkeys. It is unlawful to hunt turkeys using bait, live decoys or electronic calling devices or to shoot a wild turkey while it is in a tree. The ODNR Division of Wildlife advises turkey hunters wear hunter orange clothing when entering, leaving or moving through hunting areas in order to remain visible to others. Check with ODNRDOW for more specific details or questions, and always practice safe hunting and sportsmanship. Wild turkey hunting carries one particular safety concern in that hunters are actually pretending to be another bird in an effort to lure in a legal gobbler. As always, remember the primary rules of safe gun handling: control the direction of your muzzle, treat every gun with the respect due a loaded gun, know your target and what is beyond it, and keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot.

The Lady Eagles stranded six runners on base, while Waterford left only two on the bags. Jess Coleman was the winning pitcher of record after allowing one hit and striking out six through three innings of work. Taylor suffered the setback for WHS after surrendering a dozen hits and seven walks over five frames. Katlyn Barber — who hit a two-run homer in the first inning — joined Taylynn Rockhold in leading Eastern with two hits apiece. Hannah Bailey, Mackenzie Brooks, Sidney Cook, Mollie Maxon, Allison Barber, Emmalea Durst, Elaina Hensley and Abbie Hawley also had a hit each for the victors. Katlyn Barber led the hosts with three runs scored and Bailey also crossed home plate twice. Brooks, Coleman, Cook, Rockhold, Maxon, Durst, Hensley, Hawley, Allison Barber, Morgan Baer, Kayla Tripp and Courtney Fitzgerald all scored one run apiece as well. Ohse joined Eichmiller with Waterford’s only hits, while Radabaugh received a walk in the top of the fourth.

This Canadian-born missionary didn’t expect to find himself in Haiti for the past nine years, or in Cuba before that, but says he was called to missionary work after his conversion. After selling all his possessions, Jones began his work in Cuba, but was asked to leave — or in his words, “thrown out” — after four successful years. “I went back to Canada,” he said. “I didn’t know where I would be led next.” Jones appeared on television to tell his story, and was noticed by Missionary Services Committee in Canada. He was contacted by the group and asked if he wanted to go to Haiti. As an independent missionary, support from an organization is helpful, but because he said he had witnessed abuse of donations and corruption in philanthropic institutions, he was reluctant to accept the offer until he knew more about them. What he found was Missionary Services Committee in Canada and their sister group Christian Missions in Many Lands, allowed people to send money to missionary organizations directly, and 100 percent of the donations go to the people they were intended for, so he accepted their offer of a partnership. “I went to Haiti to serve, but after I arrived I saw how things were being done. There was a disconnect with the people,” Jones said. “To me, being a missionary means living with the people. The groups that were there weren’t living with the people, they weren’t experiencing what these people were living on a daily basis. “One day I saw people coming down from the mountains on donkeys, and I asked where those people came from. I was told they lived in the mountains and only came down to trade their produce for supplies.” He said he was intrigued and asked to be taken up the mountain to meet the people who lived there. His guide warned him that the children do not come down until they are in their teens and had never seen an “outsider” such as Jones. After traveling three hours by donkey and another three on foot, he arrived at a village and was surprised by the number of people living there. The children had never seen someone so different from themselves, but Jones quickly put everyone at ease and decided this was where he should be. While Jones saw the poverty, illness and lack of education around him, he focused on the possibilities this region held for its people and set about his work of spreading the Gospel and helping those around him. He witnessed firsthand the work mountain farmers put into their crops for very little in return. “On top of a mountain in Haiti, everything was organic. Who knew?” he said. “Everything was fresh and delicious, and they were selling it down below for pennies just to get oil to burn in their lamps and a few other items they needed to survive, and I said to myself, ‘This isn’t right.’” The proverb “give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime” are more than words to Jones; they are the core of his missionary efforts. “Giving the people of Haiti rationed handouts Courtesy photos This is Tony Jones with one of the children in the village where he lives. He said he feels he has been accepted as part of the community. each day has made them dependent. ,” he said. “I believe it is better to teach someone to do something than to do it for them.” He began by having three women cook the food each day; children eat free, adults pay 30 cents. The money received pays the cook’s wages. Next, he began purchasing coffee beans directly from the small coffee farmers and partnering with Selecto to clean, roast, package and export the freshly picked beans. Currently, the project includes 400 farmers who have around 30 trees each that produce approximately five pounds per tree. A healthy tree will produce eight pounds of coffee, and Jones is working with Selecto to provide the farmers with new and healthier trees. The optimization will increase the income of the families and the health of the village. Jones said there are at least 300,000 coffee farmers in Haiti growing totally natural, sun-dried coffee they bring down the mountain on donkeys This Haitian boy is carrying firewood for his family.

The river way: Students learn ‘Who Works the River’ By Beth Sergent bsergent@civitasmedia.com Beth Sergent | Ohio Valley Publishing POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — Students from both Mason and Gallia counties participated in the “Who Works the River” job fair this week at the Point Pleasant River Museum and Learning Center. In fact, 110 students from both the Mason County Career Center and Buckeye Hills Career Center participated in the event organized by RiverWorks Discovery and sponsored by many companies in the maritime industry. At this year’s event were: AEP River Transportation Division, Amherst, Marathon Petroleum Marine Transportation, Inland Waterways Mountwest, Murray American Transportation, USACE, American Commercial Barge Line, Superior Marine, United States Coast Guard. “At RiverWorks Discovery, we do a lot of different types of programs. … This is one of my favorite ones we do because of the collaboration that happens,” Errin Howard, of RiverWorks Discovery, said. “We had 10 different companies and organizations, many of whom are competitors by day, but when supporting this, came together for the future of the river industry, and put on this program to educate area youth.” “Who Works the River” provided those students with free admission into the river museum where they rotated between stations set up by different Students attending the “Who Works the River” job fair this week, prepare to board the M/V Charleston at Point Pleasant Riverfront Park.

Boys and girls currently in fifth through seventh grades from an 11-county region in southern Ohio are invited to attend STEM Camp at Canter’s Cave this summer. The region includes Adams, Brown, Gallia, Jackson, Highland, Lawrence, Meigs, Pike, Ross, Scioto, and Vinton counties. The camp is being planned and implemented by OSU Extension professionals from several of these counties. Both 4-H and non-4-H youth are invited to attend. The camp will begin after lunch on June 6 and end late morning June 8. It will be held at the Elizabeth L. Evans Outdoor Education Center/Canter’s Cave 4-H Camp in Jackson. The camp is an ideal setting for such a program, offering an abundance of natural resources and traditional camp activities. During the three-day, two night camp, participants will participate in both special workshops focused on STEM and in some of those traditional camp activities – with a STEM twist. What’s STEM? It stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. But, this camp won’t feel the least bit like school. Participants will select two STEM areas to explore in-depth. Choices include Aerospace, Robotics, Environmental Science, Food Science, Animal Science, Forensic Science, Engineering, and Life Science. Campers will enjoy many hands-on activities and learn about careers in the field. They’ll also participate in team building “engineering” challenges, explore the night sky, and learn about the science of fire during a traditional campfire. And, they may have to learn something about food science as they work together to prepare their evening snacks. This year’s camp will once again feature a visit from OSU’s Dr. Bob (a science guy). The fee to participate in STEM Camp is only $65 per camper. Only the first 90 registrants will be accepted, and all registrations are due by May 1. Registered youth will receive additional information and forms through the mail which will need to be completed and returned prior to the start of camp. An event brochure/registration is available on the web at adams.osu.edu. For more information, contact Carolyn L. Belczyk, Extension Educator, 4-H Youth Development, OSU Extension Adams County via phone at 937.544.2339 or email at belczyk.1@osu. edu. STEM Camp is sponsored in part by a grant from the Ohio 4-H Foundation and OSU Extension in Adams, Brown, Gallia, Highland, Jackson, Lawrence, Meigs, Pike, Ross, Scioto, and Vinton counties. Camp is open to all youth completing fifth through seventh grades this spring, without regard to race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or disability. Youth do not have to be currently enrolled in the county’s 4-H program to participate in STEM Camp. �COMICS Sunday Times-Sentinel BLONDIE Sunday, April 3, 2016 3C By Dean Young and John Marshall BEETLE BAILEY By Mort, Greg and Brian Walker Today’s answer RETAIL By Norm Feuti HAGAR THE HORRIBLE HI AND LOIS By Chris Browne Written By Brian & Greg Walker; Drawn By Chance Browne THE BRILLIANT MIND OF EDISON LEE By John Hambrock BABY BLUES ZITS By Jerry Scott & Rick Kirkman By Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman PARDON MY PLANET By Vic Lee CONCEPTIS SUDOKU by Dave Green 2 6 5 8 3 6 5 6 4 2 1 7 9 4 5 6 9 8 7 4 6 1 8 7 5 9 1 4 2 3 5 RHYMES WITH ORANGE By Hilary Price 4/04 Difficulty Level THE LOCKHORNS Hank Ketcham’s DENNIS THE MENACE By Bunny Hoest & John Reiner PROMOTIONAL PRICES START AS LOW AS 19 $ FOR 12 MONTHS Everyday price $34.99/mo.

Haitian families also grow other crops, such as black and red beans, root vegetables and corn that are also sold or traded. “This coffee isn’t coming from plantations, it is coming from individual farmers,” Jones said. “By itself, each farm doesn’t produce a lot, but when it is combined, now we have enough to market in quantities.” On the island of Haiti, most of the trees have been cut down, and Jones thinks with the current government’s policies, the ones that remain are in danger. It is perhaps fortunate for the Haitian people living in the mountains that they have been largely ignored by the developers below, but Jones is concerned that eventually it will move in that direction. “Mango groves are on land being sold, they are cut down, houses build, but not for the Haitian people. The land is being used for big houses and hotels,” he said. “The government is selling farmland that the people need for their existence.

Instead of building a better place for the people of Haiti, many took the opportunity to enrich themselves.” But Jones is not deterred and positive that his efforts at encouraging self-sufficiency, and spreading the Gospel will prove to be a tool in building a more just and equitable society for the Haitian people.
