Dan Risko, the regional representative under Ohio Treasurer Josh Mendal, was on hand to discuss a new website launched by the Treasurer’s office in December. The site, called Ohio’s Online Checkbook, allows people to check how the state is spending money. The site is set up as a Google-style search engine where anyone can look up how certain state-run agencies and companies who operate in Ohio, like McDonald’s, spend money. Searches can be dated back seven years and are broken down by state-run agencies and then can be broken down further into departments, payrolls, etc. Risko said the website would be able to include local businesses and local government, but there was no time table set for that to be available. “Many states have a site like this already in place,” Risko said. “It makes the treasurer’s office more transparent with how the state uses money.” Todd Spence, from the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation, presented an update on prospective billing. The plan will provide flexibility for employers while reducing overall systems costs. This also enables the BWC to collect premiums before extending coverage. Spence said the benefits of this system for employers include an overall base rate reduction of 2 percent for private employers and 4 percent for public employers, and an increased ability for the BWC to detect employer non-compliance and fraud. According to Spence, employers will pay their normal premium in February. In August, employers will have a premium due for the first half of 2015 and an estimated premium due July 1, 2015, to June, 30, 2016. Spence said that BWC will apply a transition credit to cover the Jan. 1, 2015, to June 30, 2015, premium ($0 due). Spence said every employer will be defaulted to a bi-monthly plan, with the option of changing to a different payment plan prior to their first premium payment. Prospective billing won’t become effective until July 1, for private employers and Jan. 1, 2016, for public employers. For more information, contact Spence at 614-644-1196 or email at todd.s.1@bwc.state. Other chamber business included a rundown of upcoming events, including the Valentine’s Day dinner and movie in Middleport on Feb. 14. No date was set for the next chamber meeting.

The accident happened at about 7:15 p.m. Monday on State Route 735 and Burnette Road in Kanauga. According to the Gallipolis Post of the Ohio State Highway Patrol, Dixie L. Lilly, 67, of Point Pleasant, suffered fatal injuries when the vehicle in which she was a riding was struck on the passenger side by another vehicle. According to the highway patrol, Sandra K. Willet, 72, of Point Pleasant, and Lilly were traveling west along Burnette Road in Willet’s 2001 Daewoo. OSHP said in its accident report that Willet failed to yield the right of way to a 2001 Chevrolet Silverado driven by Joy R. Moon, 40, of Pomeroy, who was traveling north on State Route 735. Moon’s Silverado reportedly struck the passenger side of Willett’s vehicle, sending the Daewoo off the right side of the road and into a utility pole. Willet was transported to Holzer Health Systems and treated for minor injuries, while Moon was taken to Pleasant Valley Hospital to be treated for her non-life-threatening injuries. According to OSHP, Lilly was transported to Grant Hospital in Columbus, where she later died. All three, the highway patrol’s report says, were wearing seat belts at the time of the crash. Ohio 735 was reduced to one lane for a little more than one hour. The crash remains under investigation by OSHP. Lilly and Willet are sisters and are well known in Mason County for their charitable work with the organization, Charlie’s Angels, which was founded in memory of Lilly’s late daughter, Angela “Charlie” Lilly. Charlie died from breast cancer in 2005 at the age of 38, after which her family founded the organization, raising well over $100,000 for cancer research and also establishing the Angela “Charlie” Lilly Memorial Fund with the Mason County Community Foundation. In the wake of Dixie’s passing, the family has requested that in lieu of flowers, contributions be made to the Angela “Charlie” Lilly Scholarship Foundation, P.O. Box 1762, Parkersburg, WV 26102-1762. Dixie’s obituary appears in Thursday’s print edition of the Point Pleasant Register and online. Beth Sergent in Point Pleasant contributed to this story.

Board lays out path to select Pres. Committee announced, search firm named, procedures approved HUNTINGTON, W.Va. — Marshall University’s board of governors on Wednesday laid out the search process for the selection of the institution’s 37th president. The position has been vacant since the death of Dr. Stephen J. Kopp in December. The board passed a resolution that its 16 members will be the voting members of the search committee. Michael G. Sellards, board chairman, will chair the search committee. Other board members include Phyllis Arnold, James Bailes, Phil Cline, Oshel Craigo, Tim Dagostine, David Haden, Edward Howard III, Christie Kinsey, Dale Lowther, Joseph McDonie, Wyatt Scaggs, Dr. Joseph B. Touma, Dr. Marty Amerikaner, Miriah Young and Duncan Waugaman. Ex-officio, non-voting members of the search committee will include Gary G. White, interim president; A. Michael Perry; board of governors member emeritus; and Dr. Paul L. Hill, chancellor of the West Virginia Higher Education Policy Commission (HEPC). The board also selected AGB Search Inc., to assist the university with the search process. AGB’s services will include assisting with preparation of the position announcement, creating a national advertising strategy, collecting resumes, screening applicants for the minimum qualifications, providing the selection committee with resumes of applicants who meet the minimum qualifications, conducting background and credential checks, and providing the search committee with other advice and assistance as required. Layton Cottrill, Marshall’s general counsel, said, “Given the positive momentum and unprecedented success that Marshall University experienced under President Kopp’s leadership and continues to experience with Interim President White, and given that the president acts as the university’s CEO and the official advisor to and executive agent of the board and its executive committee, the board determined it is essential that the search procedure for the permanent president be swift, effective and thorough.” To that end, the board also adopted the following search procedures, which achieve those goals and comply with HEPC rules:Input from Constituencies: The board of governors and search committee will solicit the input of Marshall University constituencies concerning the best characteristics and qualities for the presidential position, which will be used in the selection and evaluation of the candidates. Position Announcement: The position announcement shall be prepared detailing the characteristics and qualities sought in the new president and distributed nationally to appropriate newspapers and other media sources, heads of higher education associations and organizations, and other appropriate individuals for the purpose of advertising the position. At a minimum, it will be posted on the university’s website, sent as part of a news release to the media, and placed in advertisements in appropriate local, state and national publications. Selection Process: Following the deadline for receipt of presidential nominations and applications, the search committee will receive from the search firm/consultant the resumes of the applicants and/or nominees who meet the minimum qualifications of the search. The search committee will determine the applicants and/or nominees who will move forward through the search process. Interim President White will not be considered as a candidate for the presidency. It will be the ultimate responsibility of the search committee to identify no less than three and not more than five candidate finalists to be interviewed on campus. On-campus Interviews of finalists Interviews with the finalists, as determined by the search committee and governing board, shall be conducted on campus, and during the campus visits, students, classified employees, non-classified employees, faculty, campus administrators, community leaders, alumni and other individuals shall be invited to meet with the candidates, and their comments will be solicited and evaluated by the governing board. Confidentiality Members of the governing board, or any search committee appointed, may not provide information about the names or backgrounds of any candidates, without their consent, to anyone who is not a member of the governing board or search committee, or authorized agents or staff as designated in the search procedures approved by the Higher Education Policy Commission. When candidates are invited to a preliminary interview with the search committee, they will be notified of the conditions under which confidentiality may be waived as to background checks and that in the event they are invited for a campus interview, their names and backgrounds will be publicly released at the time they accept an invitation for a formal campus visit. Timeframe It is the ultimate goal of the board of governors to have the new president selected by the 2015 fall semester. Implementation Prior to implementation, these procedures must be approved by the West Virginia Higher Education Policy Commission. A website at www.marshall.edu/ presidential-search is being set up to make information available as the search proceeds. An online feedback form will be available for people to provide input. Health Services Meeting Change Announced GALLIPOLIS — The Feb. 16 meeting of the GalliaJackson-Meigs Board of Alcohol, Drug Addiction and Mental Health Services has been cancelled. The board typically meets on the third Monday of each month at 7 p.m. at the Board Office (53 Shawnee Lane, Gallipolis). Dems question whether budget creates barriers By Ann Sanner Associated Press COLUMBUS — Democrats on a state legislative panel questioned Wednesday whether Republican Gov. John Kasich’s budget would create barriers to health care after the administration recently increased access for thousands of low-income residents. The Kasich administration wants to charge a monthly premium to certain recipients on Medicaid, the federal-state health care program for the poor and disabled. The proposal comes after the governor extended Medicaid eligibility in 2013 to cover more people. Roughly 451,000 Ohioans have enrolled under the extension, which boosted eligibility to those with incomes up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level, or about $16,243 for an individual. The governor’s $72.3 billion state spending plan would continue to fund the Medicaid expansion. But the Kasich administration has proposed charging a monthly fee to an estimated 100,000 Medicaid recipients with incomes above the poverty line of about $11,770 for individuals. Those residents could pay an average of $20 per month to access Medicaid coverage, administration officials said. The plan requires federal approval. The governor has pitched the idea as helping to drive “personal responsibility” in the program and make it easier for residents to transition off the Medicaid to private coverage when they can. Administration officials, including the directors of Ohio Medicaid and the state’s Job and Family Services Department, testified on the idea Wednesday before the House Finance Committee. Democrats on the panel told the administration that they saw the premiums in conflict with expanded Medicaid coverage, fearing it could lead people to drop off the program because they couldn’t pay the cost. State Rep. Dan Ramos, a Lorain Democrat, said the premiums could turn into “more of an unnecessary burden or obligation.” “We’re talking about people who have responsibilities,” Ramos said, noting that the recipients likely had a job and were paying rent and bills. 60563580 IF YOU USED THE BLOOD THINNER XARELTO and suffered internal bleeding, hemorrhaging, required hospitalization or a loved one died while taking Xarelto between 2011 and the present time, you may be entitled to compensation. 60563583 60563582 Call Attorney Charles H.

These pages have never been coy about our dissatisfaction with the economic priorities of the Obama administration. Over the course of six years, this White House has consistently shown itself devoted to higher levels of taxation, more expansive regulation and more thoroughgoing federal control over wide swaths of the economy. As such, it comes as little surprise to us that even the so-called “recovery” we’re now in the midst of is characterized by only modest growth and a still-underperforming labor market. As Republicans jockey to succeed Mr. Obama, however, dismissing the failures of this administration will not be enough. Nor will simply relying on typical GOP bromides. Indeed, one of the deficiencies of Mitt Romney’s 2012 campaign was the former Massachusetts governor’s relentless focus on the economic concerns of entrepreneurs and “job creators” to the exclusion of almost everybody else. While we agree that any economic policy worth its salt has to take seriously the plight of employers, a competitive political party has to speak just as persuasively to people who sign the back of checks as to people who sign the front. That’s why we applaud potential Republican presidential candidates who are making the effort to make the party’s economic message more inclusive. While we don’t always see eye to eye with Jeb Bush, the former Florida governor is to be applauded this week for taking his message of a “right to rise” for impoverished Americans to Detroit. Nor is he the first such Republican to do so. Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul has also backed similar efforts, helping to launch the first GOP office in the Motor City in 2013. There are plenty of economic issues beyond taxes and regulation that affect everyday Americans, foremost among them the pressure that government has put on prices for basic goods like health care, higher education and energy. In order to deserve the votes of the American people, Republican candidates ought to focus on how to lower costs while increasing quality for these vital necessities. Rallying support for free markets is essential to the country’s economic future. That process will be considerably easier if Republicans underline the fact that the benefits flow to all Americans, not just to members of the investor class.

It sets up a natural opposition between good and evil — what experts dissecting Bush called a “binary discourse” — that is altogether too confident in our own virtue for the left. It doesn’t necessarily entail any particular policy response, but it tilts toward a total commitment to fighting the enemy, since a campaign to degrade evil feels inherently inadequate. If Bush was ill-served at times by his stubbornness and certainty, it’s always worth remembering that Democrats were perfectly content to lose to al-Qaida in Iraq when Bush was ordering the surge in 2007, and Obama’s insistence on pulling out of Iraq entirely was a priceless boon to ISIS. Obama was allegedly the embodiment of a wholly different approach than Bush, much more nuanced than his predecessor and his embarrassing nomenclature of “evil.” Yet Obama’s doubts were more about the usefulness and goodness of American power than about his own purposes. He pursued the “end” of the Bush-era wars at all costs, regardless of the depravity of the forces on the ground who would benefit. We were supposed to be beyond good versus evil, although the other side didn’t get the memo and never left the field. It’s almost as if the greatest trick evil ever played was persuading the left not to call it by its proper name. Rich Lowry can be reached via e-mail: comments.lowry@nationalreview.com.

In 1909, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was founded. In 1914, groundbreaking took place for the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. In 1915, the cornerstone was laid for the Lincoln Memorial. In 1924, George Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue” premiered in New York. In 1940, the radio play “The Adventures of Superman” debuted with Bud Collyer as the Man of Steel. In 1959, the redesigned Lincoln penny — with an image of the Lincoln Memorial replacing two ears of wheat on the reverse side — went into circulation.

Columbus road crews have filled nearly 19,600 potholes since the beginning of November, up from about 14,100 potholes at the same time last year, The Columbus Dispatch reported. Big swings in temperatures have led to crumbling streets as pavement freezes and thaws. But less snowfall this winter has allowed workers to repair potholes rather than clear streets, transportation officials said. The lack of snow also makes potholes easier to spot. Columbus has recorded about 15.5 inches of snow this winter, compared to 47.6 inches last year at the same time. “Last winter was far worse than this winter,” said Rick Tilton with the city’s department of public service. “We have been pretty aggressive out there looking for potholes.” Thursday, February 12, 2015 5 Tucker awarded membership award Courtesy photo Harrisonville Lodge 411 recently visited Lodge Brother John Tucker at his home and was presented with a 60-year membership award, which consisted of a certificate and pin.

OVCS downs Coshocton Christian Carman becomes fourth Lady Defender with 1,000 career points By Alex Hawley ahawley@civitasmedia.com GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — Just when you thought a tournament victory couldn’t get any better. Ohio Valley Christian senior Emily Carman made a layup on an assist from Rachel Sargent, making Carman the fourth Lady Defender in school history to surpass the career 1,000 point milestone. Carman’s 1,000th point came as part of a 18-0 run for OVCS and the Lady Defenders claimed a 35-20 victory over Coshocton Christian, in the OCSAA southeast regional semifinal in Gallia County. “For most of the season I really didn’t think I would be able to come back out on the floor,” Carman said. “It means a lot that I got to reach this milestone and more that we won the game.” Carman — who now has 1,002 career points — joins Hallie Carter, Abby Mein and Madison Crank as the member of the Lady Defenders 1,000-point club. Emily and her brother Pete, who surpassed the 1,000 point milestone in 2012, are the only siblings in OVCS history to both reach the 1,000 point milestone. “It’s a great milestone for her to reach, I believe she’s that fourth girl in the history over OVCS to do that and she’s a great player,” third year OVCS head coach Chris Burnett said. “Its been a rough senior year for her with injuries, she’s broke her leg twice, and to come back from that is big. We’re excited that she could do that and that she’s back with us and we’re excited for what the future holds.” The Lady Defenders (9-11) began the game with a 3:30 7-0 run, but the Lady Wildcats scored seven of the next 11 points to trim the deficit to 11-7 at the end of the opening stanza. Ohio Valley Christian shot just 1-of-15 from the field in the second period, allowing Coshocton Christian to rally back and take the 14-13 lead at halftime. CCS pushed its lead to 18-15 three minutes into the second half, but the Lady Defenders scored 10 unanswered points to end the third quarter with a 25-18 lead.

Coshocton Christian failed to make a shot from the field in the fourth, scoring just two points on free throws, and the Lady Defenders cruised to the 35-20 victory. “In the second half we played better defense and we stayed out of foul trouble,” Burnett said. “We challenged them to pick it up and play better. They knew this was a tournament game and we came out and played a good second half.” Rachel Sargent led the Lady Defenders with a double-double with 17 points and 13 rebounds, while also marking team- highs in assists with four and blocks with two. Teah Elliot marked eight points and eight rebounds, while Carman added six points and two assists. Cassandra Hutchison and Kristen Durst both marked two points with eight and five rebounds respectively.
