GALLIPOLIS — A Columbus man arrested for his alleged possession of approximately 25 grams of crack cocaine, was recently arraigned in the Common Pleas Court of Gallia County. Raymone J. Jackson, 30, 365 South Burgess Avenue, Columbus, was arrested at approximately midnight on May 9 by officers with the Gallipolis Police Department at the Super 8 Motel located near the intersection of U.S. 35 and Ohio 7 in Gallipolis. Reportedly, following an investigation by the police department, a search warrant was issued by ProbateJuvenile Judge Thomas S. Moulton, Jr., and during the subsequent search of room 219 — a room reportedly under Jackson’s control — officers discovered a plastic bag containing 48 individually packaged rocks of a white substance concealed in the control panel of the room’s air conditioning unit. The substance later tested positive for cocaine and had a field weight of 24.5 grams. According to the complaint filed initially with the Gallipolis Municipal Court, also found in the room by officers were digital scales and the remnants of a plastic sandwich baggy. In addition to the contraband found during the search, officers seized $3,859 in cash as a result of the bust — cash that could be forfeited to the Gallia County Prosecuting Attorney’s Law Enforcement Trust Fund and utilized for the purchase of equipment for the police department. Jackson made an initial appearance in the municipal court and his bond was set. The case against him was later bound over to the common pleas court and he was indicted by a grand jury on one count of drug possession, for the alleged possession of 24.5 grams of crack cocaine, and trafficking in crack cocaine, both felonies of the second degree. During the arraignment hearing, the defendant pleaded not guilty to the charges against him and his bond was set at $40,000, own recognizance, with an additional bond of $1,500, 10 percent. Jackson was further ordered to have no contact with the Super 8 Motel. A jury trial in this matter has been scheduled for October 24. Bond was posted for Jackson’s release from the Gallia County Jail following the hearing.

Ten people were selected for the 2012 Everyday Heroes award during the committee meeting that was held at the end of May. The award recipients, who span a variety of categories, are as follows: Billy C.

It came up constantly during the first 10 days of my annual road trip—in Virginia, North Carolina and Pennsylvania and at a house party that more than 30 people attended in Charleston, W.Va. “Why,” asked a lawyer named Ted Kanner, “do so many middle-class and poor white people vote against their economic selfinterest?” Lawyers and educators, the heart of the liberal upper middle class, tend to ask this question. It has been popular since Thomas Frank’s entertaining but not very substantial screed What’s the Matter with Kansas? became a liberal cult classic. It is a question that is usually asked by people who equate more government programs, and higher taxes, with better lives for the working poor. There is much truth to that: in this killer recession, government entitlement programs have helped, the earned income tax credit has helped, un­employment insurance and food stamps have certainly helped. But it is only part of the truth. And when you talk to the working poor and those plummeting from the middle class, as I did the past few days in southeastern Ohio, you find that most think of government as an abstraction—a thick, messy, bureaucratic one—and that on the ground, immediately, their self-interest, economic and otherwise, is served most faithfully by their churches and the faith-based programs that feed them, treat their addictions and provide community and a safe haven for their children. There has been an economic collapse—­factories have closed, and they probably aren’t coming back—but there has been a moral collapse as well. Drugs, divorce and out-of-wedlock births have devastated these communities. Charles Murray, the libertarian counter to Thomas Frank, delivered this argument in his recent book Coming Apart. But the problem isn’t just moral collapse or economic collapse. It’s a combination of the two, with a lot of crass materialism and relentless globalization thrown in. This is an incredibly sad story, one that neither liberals nor conservatives who opine from above fully understand. Let me introduce you to Ed Burris, a landscape contractor in the Appalachian town of Gallipolis, Ohio. Ed was addicted to prescription pills like Percocet and Oxycontin for 21 years. He started when he was a freshman in high school. “Peer pressure,” he said, “and there were some family scars I needed to forget.” Six years ago, he attended his brother’s baptism and found God. He got clean soon after in a faith-based drug program called the Field of Hope Community Campus. “And now my brother, who was baptized, is addicted to methamphetamine, which is a wicked, wicked drug,” he said. “We’re really struggling with this. But with the economy—the factories have all gone—and the pov- erty, you can get sucked into drugs real easily.” I met Ed at a Sunday-­afternoon town meeting in nearby Jackson, organized by Susan Rogers, who runs the RSVP of the Ohio Valley, a national-service program affiliated with AmeriCorps. The meeting was held downtown, in Janelle’s Fresh Baked Goods Shop. It was attended by about 20 people doing good works in the community, including Jackson’s mayor, Randy Heath, and a young state representative, Ryan Smith, a Republican who was one of three people who choked up while talking about their town. There were representatives of government programs like Dr. Ken Murray and his wife Cassandra, who run a local mental-health clinic. Ken said he’d seen a lot of families fall apart, with the parents losing custody of their children to the state and unable to get them back because it was hard to find jobs and straighten out their lives. Cassandra began to tear up when she described a parenting program the clinic ran before the program was shut down by Governor John Kasich’s budget cuts. The bright line between public and faith-based programs was smudged in Jackson. Several of the ministers in the room, like Tony Conley, work with Dr. Murray or other public programs. But the preponderance of good works—feeding and clothing the poor, treating the addicts—seemed to be done by the churches, and the ministers had many of the same problems as their parishioners. Kevin Dennis, who runs the Field of Hope program, has a relative who is serving time in prison for drug offenses. Terry Witt, whose great-­grandmother was one of the famous feuding ­McCoys, ran Transforming Lives thru Christ Ministries, but her husband was hit by a semi, and in his pain and hopelessness he became addicted to pills. “God has not forsaken this place,” she said. “Man has.” And public officials, while conservative, are trying to get government funding to help the area. Smith, a former financial adviser, said he had maps on his office wall that showed the Jackson area ranking first in the state in poverty among senior citizens and children. “I want to keep that in mind every day,” he said. For Heath, both the federal and state governments were oppressive. “The Obama Administration is dragging its heels in per­mitting new coal-fired plants,” he said, adding that he was required to spend an unfunded $17 million on improvements to his sewage-treatment plant, which would raise local taxes significantly. “You have some people in Washington and ­Columbus who want us to live in a perfect world,” he said, “and that would be nice, but we just can’t afford it.” It sometimes seemed, as I listened to these people, that the job of government, both federal and state— and believe me, many people don’t know the difference—was to throw up roadblocks to economic progress and cut funding for necessary programs. The job of the local faithbased community was more immediate: to comfort and console. But the federal government also wrote a lot of cold, impersonal checks—unemployment, old-age entitlement, disability—that kept people alive. With all these complicated forces tearing at their lives and helping them get by, it was difficult for an average Jacksonian to figure out where his or her economic self-interest actually was in standard political terms. The next day, I visited the Jour- ney’s End Ministries food pantry in Newcomerstown, a few hours north of Jackson. This, too, was faithbased—funded by 30 local churches and housed in an old auto dealer­ ship. The place was humming with elderly volunteers. “This is a choice pantry,” said Janet Gore, its director. “We don’t just hand them a sack of goods. They can pick what they want.” I spent the morning talking to the people who went in looking for food. Most were unemployed or divorced or raising their grandchildren. Most received some form of federal stipend. They seemed equally divided among Republicans, Democrats and the terminally alienated. But they had found something at Journey’s End that they couldn’t find at government ­agencies: a loving community that wasn’t judgmental. Some of the recipients even volunteered in their spare time. “Seventy-five percent of the people in this area qualify for food stamps,” Gore told me. “Seventy-five percent of the kids qualify for the school-lunch program.” She was for those programs and for Obamacare as well, although she assumed it would be shot down by the Supreme Court. “For religious folk like us, gay marriage is a no-no,” she said, adding that she voted for Obama in 2008 and was thinking about voting for Mitt Romney this year because she was disappointed that Obama hadn’t revived the economy. But politics was peripheral in her life, taking a backseat by far to the daily joys she felt in the food pantry. “You can just feel how happy we are, how blessed to do this work,” Gore said. “Can’t you?” Yes, I could.

Abuse victims elsewhere riveted by Sandusky trial David Crary, AP National Writer NEW YORK (AP) — While many Americans are riveted by the Penn State sex abuse trial, it has been particularly wrenching — and sometimes heartening — for those who were themselves victims of abuse in their youth. Unlike the witnesses testifying against Jerry Sandusky, most of them never got the chance to confront their abusers in court, so the trial has been cathartic as well as troubling. “It’s vicarious justice — the closest many survivors will ever get to a courtroom where the perpetrator is held accountable,” said Claudia Vercellotti of Toledo, Ohio, who says she was molested for years in her adolescence by a Roman Catholic youth minister. Vercellotti, a 42-year-old hospital employee, has immersed herself in news reports of the trial, mesmerized by the past week’s oftengraphic testimony from eight young men who said Sandusky, a former Penn State assistant football coach, had abused them. “It takes raw courage to get up there and face their abuser,” she said. “They are liberating other victims of sex crimes who have not been able to speak up. There are people across this country saying, ‘Me, too. Me, too.’” Vercellotti and others who were interviewed clearly believe Sandusky is guilty. But to them, the testimony in a Bellefonte, Pa., courtroom is not just about allegations that one man assaulted boys over a 15-year span; it also shines a spotlight on all abuse, in- Sunday Times-Sentinel Reader Services Correction Policy Our main concern in all stories is to be accurate.

And painful as it is, some say this can only be a good thing. “Once you accept the notion that child sex abuse is stunningly widespread, then every instance in which it emerges into the public consciousness is essentially good — painful but good,” said David Clohessy, the Saint Louis-based executive director of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests. “Kids are safer, and victims move further toward recovery.” Clohessy, who says he was abused by a priest while in his teens, expressed admiration for the witnesses testifying against Sandusky and standing up to cross-examination. “It’s one thing to deal with horrific pain privately … and perhaps toughest of all to deal with it in a public, adversarial setting,” he said. “They’ve moved from a therapist’s couch to what’s essentially a battleground.” Among the vast number of sex abuse cases, the Sandusky trial is relatively unusual in providing a direct courtroom confrontation between alleged victims and their alleged abuser. Victims often wait many years, even decades, before speaking out, and often no trial takes place because the alleged abuser is dead or the statute of limitations precludes prosecution. That was the case for John Pilmaier, a 41-year-old social worker in Milwaukee. He says he was abused by a priest while in second grade at a Catholic school in Brookfield, Wis., but told no one about it until he was 36. He reached a financial settlement with the Milwaukee Archdiocese, he said, but was prevented by Wisconsin’s Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. statute of limitations from taking the priest to court. Like Vercellotti, he’s gained some vicarious satisfaction as he follows the Sandusky testimony. “It’s heartening for me to see them testify and hold the person accountable — a lot of us weren’t able to do that,” Pilmaier said. “That can be a very healing thing — to be able to stare down the person who so grievously harmed you,” he added. “It’s what you couldn’t do as a child. You’re able to take power back from the abuser.” Becky Ianni of Burke, Va., waited until she was 48 to reveal abuse she says she endured at the hands of a priest when she was 9 and 10. When she decided to speak out, in 2006, she went before a church review board to make her allegations, and burst into tears as she underwent questioning. She said memories of that encounter resurfaced as she followed the reports of some of the Sandusky witnesses fighting back tears during their testimony. “I remembered sobbing and crying when I went to the church and told my story … and being challenged about it,” she said. “To me, it felt like I was on trial. I remember how hard it was for me, and how ashamed I felt about what happened to me. My heart went out to these victims, thinking how hard it must be for them.” Ianni admitted to a trace of envy that the witnesses have a chance to confront Sandusky. “My perpetrator committed suicide in 1992,” she said. “I had no chance to confront him.” Sunday Times Sentinel Ohio Valley Publishing Co. 200 Main Street Point Pleasant, W.Va.

Lopez Publisher Stephanie Filson Managing Editor �Sunday, June 17, 2012 Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis Sunday Times Sentinel • Page A5 Meth From Page A1 According to Assistant Prosecutor Amanda BizubFranzmann, alleged methmaking materials were found inside the motel room and also outside. The alleged lab took nearly five hours to neutralize, and at one point, caught on fire. Present on the scene were officers from the Meigs County Sheriff’s Office, the Middleport Police Department, the Ohio State Highway Patrol, firefighters from the Pomeroy Fire Department and officials from Meigs County Children’s Services and the Meigs County Prosecutor’s Office. “This is the fourteenth meth lab bust in the two-anda-half years the Task Force has been in existence,” said Captain Steve Kane, who directed the search along with Sergeant William Gilkey of the Meigs County Major Crimes Task Force. The Task Force, through its continued work and sup- port of Sheriff Beegle, has been able to successfully investigate and convict many of the drug producers associated with these busts. War From Page A1 according to Keith Ashley of Pomeroy, president of the Ohio Society of the War of 1812. The Society is a men’s hereditary organization for descendants of veterans of the War of 1812. As president, Ashley who also serves in an advisory position with the Ohio Bicentennial Commission, will be in Columbus to participate in Monday’s flag raising ceremony at the State Capitol. Ashley, who has five known ancestors who fought in the War of 1812, organized the Ohio Society in 1988 and served as its president from then until 1993. He was again elected in 2011. He has compiled a list of more than 150 Meigs Countians who served in that war along with the burial places of most. The War of 1812, which Ashley said is often referred to as the “Second War for Independence,” was fought on three fronts, according to researched material he provided. The first was along the sea coast and included the famous Battle of Baltimore and the burning of Washington, D.C. The second was when the Americans tried to seize Canada unsuccessfully, and the third was in the area between the Appalachian and Rocky Mountains where the Indians supported the British who did not accept the independence from the American Revolution and wanted to re-take its American colonies. He noted that when the War of 1812 was declared on June 18, 1812, there was no Meigs County. At that time, the southern townships of what is now Meigs County were a part of Gallia County, and the northern townships were part of Athens County. Record keeping was very poor at that time, and less than half of the rosters of War of 1812 soldiers in Ohio are estimated to still be in existence. Ashley said that there were two large companies in Gallia County that included residents of Meigs County. Service in the war, he said, was usually very short,”two weeks to three months being the norm.” Many of the soldiers in Ohio, he added, were used when Ft. Meigs defended what was then “the West” from British invasion. One Meigs County soldier, James Whaley, was a veteran of both the War of 1812 and the Revolutionary War, according to information from Ashley who also noted that another Meigs Countian was a rare type of soldier - a black veteran by the name of Henry Still who is buried in a marked grave in Old Brick Cemetery on State Roue 681. Still is also said to have picked up his gun to fight Morgan’s Raiders in the Civil War when he was in his 80s,” Ashley commented. Other Meigs veterans of the War of 1812 mentioned by Ashley were David Orsborn who was an actual member of the War of 1812 Veterans Society which was formed in 1852, Louden Calloway who lived to be at least 107 according to old Meigs County newspapers, and E H. Benedict, the last living War of 1812 soldier in the county. Ashley described Henry K. Wells of Bedford Township as one of the most interesting soldiers. He got caught in the Napoleonic War between France and Britain and after stints in prison with both countries, Submitted photo George Holter, Jr. who served in the War of 1812 and is the greatgreat-great grandfather of Roy Holter of Pomeroy, is buried in Gilmore Cemetery. somehow ended up in New Orleans where Gen. Andrew Jackson proclaimed martial law and put him into his service where he fought in the Battle of New Orleans. Roy Holter of Route 7, Pomeroy, a descendant of George Holter, Jr. who was a soldier in the Maryland militia during the War of 1812, has the gun his ancestor used in the Battle of Baltimore. He was given the gun by his father, Homer,who died in the mid 1960s. “It was pretty much ‘gummed’ up when Dad died but we worked on it and now it will actually shoot.” He described the process of putting powder into the barrel of the gun, then dropping in the ball, and stuffing it all down with a stick which is attached to the gun. George Holter, Jr., who is buried in Gilmore Cemetery, and his brother, John Holter, were said to be among the soldiers involved in the Battle of Baltimore when the “Star Spangled Banner” was written.

A memorial service was held at 3 p.m. Monday, March 5, 2012, at the First Baptist Church of Lakeside City, with Pastor Tommy Bragg officiating. Burial will be held at 11 a.m., Saturday, June 23, at Gravel Hill Cemetery in Cheshire, Ohio, under the direction of the American Legion, Post 128, of Middleport Ohio. Ed was born on March 20, 1929, in Middleport, Ohio, where he lived and attended school, after which he worked as a bookkeeper for a chemical company until he enlisted in the Air Force in August 1948. During his very enjoyable career in military service, he spent the first 10 years in the USAF Security Service then retired honorably after a total of 24 years in the USAF. Throughout his military career he attended and successfully completed several military courses and received several medals and ribbons for meritorious service. After retiring in July 1972, he owned and operated Ed’s Exxon service station for 13 years. Next, he worked five years in civil service at Sheppard Air Force Base. Then, because of his love for cars and mechanical work, he went to work in management with Autozone in Wichita Falls, Texas, retiring again in December 1995. After his second tour in Germany, he came to Wichita Falls, Texas, where he later met the love of his life, Mollie Griffith. They were married after a two-and-a-half-year courtship to spend the next 42 years in a wonderful marriage in the Wichita Falls area. This marriage was blessed with stepson, Michael Griffith and his wife, Debbie; adopted son, Buddy; eight grandkids; and twelve great-grandchildren.

Stories 8-10 appeared in the Thursday sports edition and 5-7 ran on Friday, making these final four recaps the top stories of this past school year. On Thursday, I started my annual top-10 stories from the previous sports year — which led to the unveiling of stories 8-10 from the 201112 season. Friday, we talked about the middle of the pack events that made up the 5-7 spots. And before sharing the four best stories of this past school year, let’s reflect on the previous half-dozen stories that have been previously discussed. 10. Rebels and Roundball. 9. A Runner’s World. Thrower’s too. 8. Diamond Gems. 7. No I in Team 6. Repeat Offenders. 5. Grappling Glory. And now, what I believe to be the four best sports stories from the 2011-12 season in the Ohio Valley Publishing area. And a small note about the final four, each subject matter managed to make it to the state level. 4. Lady Eagles Soar to State The law of averages says that if you do something long enough, you will eventually come away with the desired result. The Eastern volleyball program had won only one game in six previous trips to the Division IV regional semifinals before this fall. The Lady Eagles had never been to a volleyball regional final before this fall. EHS had also never been to a state volleyball tournament before this fall. Then came this fall. The Lady Eagles practically rewrote their entire record book this past autumn after putting together one of the most dominant seasons in the storied program’s history. Eastern joined the 2006 squad in going unbeaten in the regular season (22-0) and also picked up its 13th TVC Hocking championship in 15 years with a 16-0 league mark, then followed by earning the program’s 16th straight sectional title. A pair of straight-game wins over Whiteoak and Waterford allowed the Lady Eagles to win their seventh district title in the last 10 years, and also gave this group a share of the school record for wins in a season (2006) with 25. Then came the real test … trying Bryan Walters/file photo Gallia Academy senior Nick Saunders drains a putt on the 17th hole during the Division II state championships at North Star Golf Resort in Sunbury, Ohio. Saunders, the SEOAL medalist this past fall, won All-Ohio honors by placing fourth individually at the two-day event. to win a match at regionals. The Lady Eagles played their only five-game match of the year in the regional semifinals against Shekinah Christian Academy, but EHS held on through 40 lead changes and 35 ties to win the program’s first-ever regional match and secure the program’s 26th win of the fall. Eastern followed by beating Pike Eastern in straight games two days later in the regional final, earning Howie Caldwell and the Lady Eagles their first-ever appearance at state. EHS didn’t need six tries to score their first game victory at the state level, jumping out to a 1-0 match lead against Tuscarawas Central Catholic in the Division IV semifinals. TCC rallied back with three straight wins to ultimately hand EHS its only loss of the season. Eastern, which finished 27-1 overall in match play, won 79 of the 87 games it played in during the 2011 campaign. Eastern’s previous lone game win in six appearances at regionals also came against TCC dur- ing the 2009 postseason. 3. Case in Point. Everybody familiar with the Point Pleasant football program knew coming into the 2011 campaign, the Big Blacks had a chance to be special. With 17 seniors and 42 players returning from last year’s roster, fifthyear coach Dave Darst was chomping at the bit to get this fall started. What followed was, well, truly something to watch. The Big Blacks posted the program’s third unbeaten regular season in school history while also winning the Cardinal Conference title outright for the second time in four years (2008), doing so in a manner that landed PPHS its’ first-ever No. 1 seed headed into the Class AA playoffs. With wins over Ritchie County and Oak Glen in the opening two rounds of the playoffs, the 2011 PPHS squad became the first team See FOUR ‌| B3 �Sunday, June 17, 2012 Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis Sunday Times Sentinel • Page B2 Teams From Page B1 son; Matthew Lough, Sherman; Dominic Walker, Sissonville; Zach Wright, Herbert Hoover; Justin Clemins, Mount View; Chris Hysell, Oak Hill; Zack Whitten, Wyoming East.

Trophies are awarded each week to the first and second place winners in each age group. All participants received weekly points according to their position in their age group. A man/woman of the year is determined at the end of the first 4 weeks of play based on the points accumulated. The final event of the year is a ‘Fun Day’ where handicaps are used to determine the winning scores for that day. The final day will also be used to break any ties that may exist after the first four weeks. There is a small fee for each tournament day per player.

At right, Point Pleasant senior Josh Hereford, right, receives some in-match instruction from PPHS head coach John Bonecutter, middle, and assistant coach Jed Ott, left, during Day 2 of the 2012 WVSSAC Wrestling Championships at the Big Sandy Superstore Arena in Huntington, W.Va. Four From Page B1 to ever win multiple games in a postseason and also post a dozen wins in a campaign. PPHS followed with its third straight home playoff win in the state semifinals following a 33-13 victory over Chapmanville. Point Pleasant had beaten Wayne in the regular season, but the Big Blacks ultimately lost to WHS in their first-ever Class AA championship game to finish the season with a 13-1 overall mark — the new standard in the school’s storied history. More impressively, it was how the Big Blacks went about getting to Wheeling for the first time that sticks out. In its 13 victories, PPHS scored an average of more than 45 points and allowed just a shade over 10 points per contest — with roughly half of those wins coming by 20 or more points. The Big Blacks were plus-12 in turnover differential and allowed just 227 yards defensively, while the offense cranked out nearly 415 yards of total offense per outing. The seniors on this 2011 squad are also the only Point Pleasant athletes to ever play in the playoffs for four consecutive seasons. The Big Blacks were previously 1-8 alltime in the postseason — with the lone win coming in 1979 — before this past fall. 2. Better Than Par for the Course. It’s one thing to win a lot of golf matches throughout the course of a season. It’s something entirely different when you don’t lose many golf matches over the course of that same given time frame. The Gallia Academy golf team started the season by winning the Ironton Invitational and gradually improved its season record to 75-0 through 16 matches and sectional tournament play, something completely unheard of in a sport that is probably more inconsistent than any other at the high school ranks and beyond. In fact, Unioto — in the 17th match of the season — was the first team to get a win over Gallia Academy on the links, an event that happened to take place at the district meet. The Blue Devils, which finished second at districts, also qualified for their 11th state golf tournament in school history on that day. A week later, GAHS managed to avenge Unioto by finishing ahead of them in the team ranks at the Division II state tournament. The Blue Devils finished third overall — the best ever for the program at the state level — and also came away with a pair of All-Ohio golfers in Nick Saunders and Boeing Smith. The Blue Devils won the Southeastern Ohio Athletic League championship with a perfect 30-0 mark, and Gallia Academy also completed its historic campaign with a 92-3 overall mark. The other two programs to beat GAHS this fall were D-2 state champion Springfield Kenton Ridge and Canton Central Catholic. GAHS won the school’s 18th SEOAL title this fall and the program’s first sectional championship since the 1999 campaign. Gallia Academy, however, was not the only school to have some success at the state level. Point Pleasant senior and 2011 Cardinal Conference medalist Opie Lucas completed his prep career by earning his second straight all-state honor in four state appearances for golf. Lucas placed fourth this year and was third during the 2010 campaign. PPHS junior Erik Allbright also finished 10th overall at the state golf meet this fall, Allbright’s second consecutive appearance at the WVSSAC links. 1. State Champions. In this business, there is nothing better than writing about a state championship. And since the competition cannot beat a state champion, neither can another story about another state champion. Rather it be an individual title or a team crown, the thrill of being a state champion only comes to a handful of blessed people in high school. And regardless of the sport, they are all equally worthy of top billing. There were a total of eight state championships won in the OVP area this sports year, all of which occurred in Mason County over the last six months. Point Pleasant came away with seven state championships, while Wahama earned the remaining state title. Point Pleasant wrestling team won its third consecutive Class AA-A team title in record fashion, scoring a school-best 224 points while having a dozen grapplers finish on the podium (top6) in their respective weight classes. The Big Blacks tied a school-record by having three individuals — Noah Searls, Zach Nibert and Josh Hereford — win state titles at the same meet, and PPHS also became just the third AA-A program to score over 200 points as a team and also win three consecutive state crowns as a team. Point Pleasant — which claimed the 2012 title by a school-best 85 points over the field — also set a school record by qualifying an athlete to the state meet in all 14 weight classes. Josh Hereford’s title in the 170-pound weight class also gave the Big Blacks their first set of sibling state champions (Brent Hereford, 2006) in the program’s illustrious history. The three individual champions from this winter — Hereford, Searls and Nibert — were all firsttime winners of state titles. PPHS now has 18 state championships from 11 different athletes in wrestling. Point Pleasant also used a little teamwork in the spring to bring home three more state crowns in track and field, as a trio of relay teams combined to earn gold at Laidley Field in late May. Zach Canterbury, Marquez Griffin, Anthony Darst and Chase Walton earned state titles in both the 4x100m and 4x200m relay events, while Walton, Darst, Canterbury and Caleb Riffle combined to win the 4x400m relay contest in Class AA. It was the first time since the turn of the millennium that the Big Blacks won multiple state titles at the same meet. Last year, Wahama earned its first-ever state championship in track when Kelsey Zuspan won gold in both the 100m and 200m dashes. This spring, the boys got in on the act by earning the White Falcons’ first-ever gold medal at the Class A state track meet. The quartet of Jacob Buzzard, Benny Youkers, Jacob Ortiz and Crandale Neal came away with first place in the 4x100m relay event. The state championship also gives Wahama a total of five in school history, joining both Zuspan and the 1996 and 1998 baseball teams with top honors. BUNDLE & SAVE!

The local community theater group River City Players (RCP) has seen its share of blockbusters since the group came together in 2001. Many have come and gone over the years, and those involved are always looking for new projects to attract newcomers, as well as longtime fans. The inception of this group was said to have come from the minds of Amy Perrin and Anna Wears. Perrin said RCP was born of an idea to give people in the community the opportunity to perform. Besides local church events, Perrin said, there weren’t very many opportunities for people to sing, act and dance. Wears, who is currently serving as RCP’s president, also said there weren’t very many arts programs in Meigs County, and they thought they would be able to change that. The two women went to a Riverbend Arts Council meeting to discuss how community theater would do in the area, and they pitched the idea of doing Rodger’s and Hammerstein’s “Oklahoma”. Perrin continued her story, explaining that the arts council sponsored the show by paying for the royalties and scripts. The two continued their quest to bring the arts alive in Meigs County, gathering more support from local residents. Those interested joined the cast and crew, and “Oklahoma” became a reality. Perrin served as the director, and Wears was cast as Ado Annie. Perrin said the community really came together for that first production, and everything for it was donated. “It was amazing that we could do a show that big, and we had no budget,” Perrin said. “It was all based on donations.” Following the success of “Oklahoma”, it would come as no surprise that those in the community would want to do another show. The next show would be a production of “The Wizard of Oz”. In addition to several Oklahomans returning, this show also brought some new faces, one of which was Gary Walker. Walker said that his daughter, Jennifer, had the role of Dorothy, and he also came on board to help create the sets for the show. Again, the show was successful and paved the way for a fall show to follow — a production of “The Music Man”. Again, Walker’s daughter was involved in the show, and the director was looking for an actor to play the role of Mayor Shinn, who was known in the play as a pompous windbag. His daughter and the director both thought Walker would fit the part, a sentiment that was surely meant as a compliment, and since then, RCP has rarely seen a show without a performance from Walker. He went on to discuss his prolific RCP career in the past decade. “It’s just a really fun group to work with,” Walker said. “I’ve never, in all the time I’ve been involved, not had a really good time with the show.” Since its start, RCP has presented numerous performances of plays and musicals in just about every genre imaginable. In addition to those already outlined, the repertoire includes several classic titles such us “Annie Get Your Gun”, “Bye Bye Birdie”, “Fiddler on the Roof”, “Seussical the Musical”, “Sev- en Brides for Seven Brothers”, “Back to the 80s” and “Camelot”, among many others. There have also been performances for the younger generation. Beginning in 2005, RCP Kids has presented its share of children’s shows, as well, such as, “A Little Princess”, and has continued on to include productions of “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”, “Fairy Tales”, “Honk Jr.”, “Schoolhouse Rock Live”, “Recess”, and the most recent being “The Big Bad Musical”. Much like the adults, once the kids get the acting bug, many want to start again with the next show. Through working hard on a production with others in the community, friendships can, and most always do, develop. Perrin discussed her reasons for being involved in community theater and said it is about the camaraderie and experience of several different people coming together for one common goal followed by a gratifying feeling of accomplishment. She also expressed why community theater is important in a rural community like Meigs County. “It’s important because it brings everyone together,” Perrin said. She went on to discuss some of the aspects of live theater, describing that it’s only there for a moment, and then it’s gone. As one quickly learns in the theater, anything can happen during a live performance, and those involved have to know how to quickly recover from any mishaps. “It brings you together to see something that will never happen exactly like that again,” Perrin added. Walker also shared his views on the role of community theater, saying it’s particularly important in a place like Meigs County because today, much like when RCP was founded, Pictured is the River City Players headquarters on the “T” in Middleport. there are so few opportunities to be involved with things such as this. “The arts get underplayed so much, and it’s such an important thing,” Walker said. Walker continued, stating there have been several individuals who have grown up while involved with RCP who also excel in other aspects of their lives. Academically, he said, the students are at the upper end of their class. There have also been several individuals who started doing community theater with RCP and have chosen to go on and to pursue theater professionally, one of those people being his daughter. Walker also said community theater is a confidence booster. “When you go on stage in front of 200 people, you’ve got to have some confidence,” Walker said. Perrin also discussed the importance of community theater among children and the younger generation in Meigs County, explaining that there are several opportunities for young people to be involved in some type of sport, but not as many for them to excel in performing arts. Wears also talked along the same lines saying that after graduating from high school, opportunities for extracur- ricular type activities also diminish. When that time comes, community theater and RCP is there to provide either a enjoyable hobby or a discovery of a new passion. As previously stated, theater as an art form is collaborative. For those who dread stepping out on stage in front of an audience, there are still several roles available at RCP — roles that are just as important. Walker discussed these different areas, saying whether one is interested in building sets, working on costumes, using a musical talent for a show such as playing piano or another instrument, or some other behindthe scenes’ aspect, there are opportunities at RCP. Though it may seem that actors and directors get the majority of the credit, those behind-the-scenes in theater know the show would not happen without these essential technical aspects. “I would encourage anyone that wants to have a good time to get involved,” Walker said. There is one more important aspect of live theater — the audience. All the preparation in the world ultimately will not matter if there is not an audience to perform for. Nathan Jeffers/photo Walker said there are many in the area who may not be able to travel to cities such as Columbus and Cleveland to see shows at larger theaters. Those same people still have the chance to experience the fun of live theater through RCP. “We may not be as big, but we’re giving them a quality product,” Walker said when comparing RCP to larger theaters. While located in Meigs County, RCP is not strictly for those in Meigs County. There have been several volunteers over the years from both Gallia County and Mason County, W.Va., and those residents have always been, and will continue to be, welcome. As president, Wears briefly discussed where RCP will head in the future, stating that the group is looking to have more community involvement and to have more shows throughout the year. The next production on the roster for RCP will be Tennessee Williams’ “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof ” on August 4 and 5. The RCP headquarters is located on the “T” in Middleport, at 99 Mill Street.

Now, with Father’s Day right around the corner, is the perfect time to offer a little extra help for Dad. People across the nation are helping their dads save nearly $4,000 a year on the cost of Medicare prescription drugs. You can help your dad too — and it won’t cost you a dime. The high cost of prescription medication can be a burden on fathers (or anyone) who have limited income and resources. But there is Extra Help — available through Social Security — that could pay part of his monthly premiums, annual deductibles, and prescription co-payments. That Extra Help is estimated to be worth about $4,000 a year. To figure out whether your father is eligible, Social Security needs to know his income and the value of his savings, investments, and real estate (other than the home he lives in). To qualify for the Extra Help, he must be en- rolled in Medicare and have: • Income limited to $16,755 for an individual or $22,695 for a married couple living together. Even if his annual income is higher, he still may be able to get some help with monthly premiums, annual deductibles, and prescription co-payments. Some examples where income may be higher include if he or his spouse: —Support other family members who live with them; —Have earnings from work; or —Live in Alaska or Hawaii. • Resources limited to $13,070 for an individual or $26,120 for a married couple living together. Resources include such things as bank accounts, stocks, and bonds. We do not count his house and a car (if he has one) as resources. Social Security has an easy-touse online application that you can help complete for your dad. You can find it at www.socialsecurity.gov/prescriptionhelp. To apply by phone or have an application mailed to you, call Social Security at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) and ask for the Application for Help with Medicare Prescription Drug Plan Costs (SSA-1020). Or go to the nearest Social Security office. To learn more about the Medicare prescription drug plans and special enrollment periods, visit www.medicare.gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-6334227; TTY 1-877-486-2048). Think of all the times you’ve asked Dad for some extra help. This Father’s Day, give your dad a little extra help he can use year-round — a savings of up to $4,000 a year on his Medicare prescription drugs through Extra Help available from Social Security. Special Needs Parenting (SNP): I did NOT sign up for this! Jodi Hobbs-Saunders Mother and home educator of two special needs children C: You’re going to hit those people on the bridge and kill them. Aaaaahhh! C: Is there a state where U-turns are legal? Can we move there so you won’t be breaking the law anymore? C: Just admit it. You’re confused. You have no idea where we are. You’re lost. We’ll never find the highway and get home. Then he came home, got out craft materials without asking, drew two postersize pictures of traffic lights and taped them to the walls with electrical tape. Clearly, we got home. I plead the Fifth on the U-turns. There were no news stories that night about bridge hit-andrun victims. There might have been a man who actually got in front of my vehicle and waved me from turning onto a one-way street … but I’m not discussing that either. This is a description of a recent car ride home from an optometrist appointment with my 9-year-old Asperger son Connor in the backseat. The diagnosis of Asperger’s falls on the Autism Spectrum, which is a range of symptoms including deficits in communication, social skills and restricted/repetitive behaviors and interests noted by the age of three. Children on the Autism Spectrum often have other conditions occurring at the same time, as such my son is also diagnosed with bipolarism (a mood disorder causing often quickly changing ex- tremes in mood) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Individuals with Asperger’s feel compelled to follow rules. This can apply to both rules they have learned about the world (such as traffic laws) to rules about play they may have created for their own toys. Connor has many behaviors that isolate him from “normal” people. He recently took electrical tape and made lanes all over our laminate wood flooring. Even I can’t figure out where it’s permissible to walk and have received the equivalent of several “jay-walking” tickets. He spends hours building and programming complex Lego Mindstorms robots that walk, crawl and roll like a tank around our house. He rocks back and forth, vocalizes/hums and hits himself in the head when overstressed. Connor needs to eat and drink every three hours (almost to the minute), or he becomes incapable of higher reasoning and violent behaviors can occur. Sounds pretty dry, doesn’t it? It might strike you as a mix between way too much medical jargon and some bored housewife’s wannabe Kardashian 15 minutes of newsprint fame. I only wish that were true. I didn’t agree to write a column for the same small, hometown newspaper that serves the area where I graduated high school quite a few years ago to brag about how glorious my current lifestyle happens to be. I’m writing about exhausting, embarrassing and frustrating de- Rep: Lindsay Lohan treated for exhaustion after her film shoot LOS ANGELES (AP) — Lindsay Lohan continued to bring drama to the production of her latest film, receiving treatment for exhaustion and dehydration a week after she was involved in a car crash that sent her to the hospital. Lohan’s publicist Steve Honig says producers of the Lifetime film “Liz and Dick” summoned paramedics to Lohan’s hotel room Friday morning after she did not respond for a shoot. The incident occurred after the actress completed an all-night shoot and had kept up a grueling schedule in recent days, Honig said. The actress was not transported to the hospital and will likely return to the set of the film Friday afternoon. The film focuses on the love affair between Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. Lifetime declined comment. And it was unclear whether the incident led to any delay in the film’s production. Fire officials confirmed they were summoned to a hotel in Marina del Rey on Friday morning around 10:15 a.m., but said they did not transport anyone to the hospital. They also said they could not identify the patient. The incident is the latest scare for Lohan, who was involved in a car crash June 8 that sent her and her assistant to a hospital. The pair were on the way to a “Liz and Dick” shoot when the Porsche they were in collided with a dump truck on the Pacific Coast Highway. Neither was seriously injured and Lohan resumed shooting later in the day. The accident remains under investigation and police have said they are still trying to determine who was driving. Lohan, 25, remains on informal probation for taking a necklace last year from a jewelry store without permission. She is not required to check in with a judge or probation officer, but could face a jail term if she is re-arrested. tails of our daily life to help educate others who, perhaps, see that their young child seems a little different but is getting the brush-off when they question their pediatrician. Maybe these writings will help other parents muster the courage to seek a second or even third opinion. I’m writing to let other caregivers who are depressed by the often overwhelming nature of being in charge of every facet of another human being’s medical, psychological, social and educational care on a daily basis that they are not alone. I am the primary caregiver to two special needs children. Their medical and psychological diagnosis make their childhoods difficult for them to go to school and form friendships like other children. The same diagnosis have finally forced me, after running my own business for seven years, to close my doors and devote 100 percent of my time to their education and medical appointments. I’m proud to yell from the rooftops that I wouldn’t have it any other way. Yes, my days and nights are long, thankless and frequently full of tears (not to mention endless medical bills). While we are unable to conclusively diagnose famous historical figures now, it’s been theorized that several notable minds that changed the world possibly had Asperger’s like Albert Einstein and Isaac Newton. I remember the day the psychiatrist told us Connor’s Asperger Syndrome diagnosis. When Connor Saunders we got home, Connor asked me what “syndrome” meant. I told him the doctor misspoke, that there is no such thing as Asperger Syndrome. At our house, we see Asperger’s as a gift because we are lucky enough to think outside the box and see the universe from a viewpoint few will ever share with us. As his mother, it’s my job to ensure Connor understands how very precious that gift is and how it’s worth every sacrifice we make for it.

Spotlight shines on Ferragamo’s Giornetti PARIS (AP) — He’s come out of the shadows and into the world spotlight. But Massimiliano Giornetti, Salvatore Ferragamo’s creative director since 2010, says that he’s still a “down to earth” guy — despite having tea with Meryl Streep and hanging out with Angelina Jolie. The humility is perhaps surprising considering that Giornetti, who has breathed life into the 84-yearold fashion house, made history this week with the biggest catwalk coup in recent times: taking over the arcades of the Louvre for the 900-yearold building’s first fashion show. While the Louvre venue might be new, the Hollywood A-list has been linked for an eternity to the storied Italian brand. “The link between Salvatore Ferragamo and Hollywood is as old as the company,” Giornetti told The Associated Press. “It was probably the first house (in the 1920’s) to create this link between fashion and celebrities.” It was patronage of actresses — such as Marilyn Monroe and Greta Garbo — that ensured Salvatore Ferragamo’s “fairytale” rise from a humble shoe repair shop in California into the leather “shoemaker of the stars.” The ongoing Marilyn Monroe exhibit in Florence’s Museo Salvatore Ferragamo is proof enough of the brand’s star quality. It features 14 pairs of the house’s shoes once worn or purchased by the screen siren. Today, Ferragamo is one of the world’s biggest fashion empires— spanning leather goods, watches, perfumes and ready-to-wear for men and women. Sales last year were $1.37 billion. Giornetti says Ferragamo’s a natural hit because of a simple and universal concept: beauty with functionality. “The first time Greta Garbo visited the Ferragamo headquarters,” Giornetti recounted, “the diva said ‘I want to have shoes to walk with.’” That eye for comfort, stamped on the house from the beginning, was what made the shoes so famous. Salvatore Ferragamo — the founder of the house who died in 1960 — even studied human anatomy to master how to make elegant shoes truly wearable. From this know-how sprang the famous wedge heel in 1936. Then later came the classic staple bestseller — the Vara Bow Pump. Ferragamo ensured this philosophy was carried on to Giornetti, half a century later. A native of Tuscany, Giornetti studied in Florence. After 10 years designing Ferragamo’s menswear, Giornetti was named creative director in 2010, giving him control of the women’s side, too. With Ferragamo’s headquarters situated in Florence’s Palazzo Spini Feroni — a fortified medieval edifice — it’s clear that both the designer and the brand have the city in their hearts. Florence’s hands-on artisanal tradition has existed since the Renaissance. Giornetti says it’s key to the house and to his own personal style, mixing aesthetics with practicality. “It’s modern teaching that started back in the past. (Ferragamo’s philosophy) is linked with the work of Leonardo da Vinci, who also studied the anatomy and the human figure.” It’s thanks to Ferragamo’s links and sponsorship of da Vinci’s restored masterpiece “The Virgin and Saint Anne,” that the Louvre granted access to Tuesday’s show — a showcase of clothes inspired by Florence’s artisanal history. In the collection, relaxed coolcolored clothes with intricate and detailed stitching were combined appealingly with Florentine leather savoir-faire. There was a nod to couture craftsmanship in a knee-length cream dress with myriad organic looking leather appliques. Though he just showed in one of the world’s most famous buildings, Giornetti remains unpretentious. He lives in the non-trendy part of Florence on the left bank because “it’s the most authentic and genuine part of the city, where you find the artisanal traditions: the goldsmith, the silversmith, the art of dyeing leather, the old tradition of basket weaving.” Given his roots it’s no surprise that Giornetti praises the slower and less showy side to fashion. It’s rooted in a simple, artisanal approach to clothes — devoid of ego. The down-to-earth values of a family-run label also appeal to him. “Working for a family business means a lot, especially when everything is becoming more global with fashion brands becoming part of enormous companies.” Despite Giornetti’s new-found fame — people now want to take photos with him in the street — he says he’s still a “very down to earth person.” Yes, he’s now able to rub shoulders with his idols like actress Angelina Jolie and Chinese film director Wong Kar-wai, but he says, “I still like to go to the cinema by myself.” It’s with genuine pride that he speaks of a fitting he did for actress Meryl Streep in London ahead of last year’s Academy Awards. His favorite moment with the Oscar-winner? As it rained, “sharing a cup of tea.” �Sunday, June 17, 2012 Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis Sunday Times Sentinel • Page C3 Sunday, June 17, 2012 ComiCs/EntErtainmEnt Comics BLONDIE Dean Young/Denis Lebrun BEETLE BAILEY FUNKY WINKERBEAN HAGAR THE HORRIBLE HI & LOIS Mort Walker Today’s Answers Tom Batiuk Chris Browne Brian and Greg Walker THE LOCKHORNS MUTTS William Hoest Patrick McDonnell Jacquelene Bigar’s zITS THE FAMILY CIRCUS Bil Keane DENNIS THE MENACE Hank Ketchum Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman CONCEPTIS SUDOKU by Dave Green HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, June 18, 2012: This year your ingenuity seems endless. You nearly always find a solution -- so much so that others often seek you out when they face a problem. Use care with your finances, but recognize that on some level, you will always feel as if you do not have enough. If you are single, opportunities to meet people come forward with ease. Date until you find someone significant to your life. If you are attached, do not dominate the relationship, as you sometimes do. Remember that it takes two to tango. LIBRA tends not to be as responsive as you might like. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Your passionate side emerges. You seem to be a ball of fire wherever you go, no matter what the topic is and no matter who you are discussing it with. Realize that not everyone can handle this much snap, crackle and pop. To be really effective, tame down your presentation. Tonight: Try to chill out. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Without intending to be challenging, you come up with a different idea nearly every time someone has a suggestion. Your creativity is great, but others might not understand that you are trying to be helpful. They might see you as contentious. Try subtlety. Tonight: Make it easy — order in. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH You smile and others respond. Someone close to you might be in a disagreeable mood, which could cause a problem. You have tried to deal with a home or personal matter, but you might be totally exhausted by the issue. Just recognize that fact. Tonight: As you like. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HH Know when to pull back and say little. It appears that nearly anything you might say could be misinterpreted. This might not be the result of your doing, but of others’. Even saying “yes” to something could be a problem if someone wants it to be. Use care with machinery. Tonight: Do your thing. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH You could be pushed beyond your normal limits, and your finances might be playing a role in this situation. Only you can work it out, perhaps with some advice here and there. Rely on your even temperament, and you Horoscope can buckle down to eliminate what is bothering you. Tonight: Whatever you need to do. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH You might be bucking the establishment. Curb your sarcasm and anger for now. Do not take recent events personally, especially those that occurred in the past few days. You might not feel comfortable, but given time, everything will work out. Tonight: Could be late. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH Stretch your mind and get an overview. You could feel as if you have been pushed or ignored lately. Try to get a perspective on the situation. Strive to detach and understand someone’s position, rather than react in haste. Tonight: Get some exercise. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Zero in on what you want. A possessive friend or loved one attempts to point you to his or her “right” path. Others might be a little too sure of themselves and the validity of their opinions. Say little and move on. Tonight: With a favorite person. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You could be pushing too hard for your own good. You simply cannot be everywhere all the time. You need to zero in on what needs to happen with a group. Allow others to take a greater amount of responsibility. Tonight: Sort through invitations. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HH Keep reaching out for someone at a distance. This person might be out of sorts and could have difficulty expressing his or her real issue. You just might be misfortunate enough to be in the line of fire. Stay neutral, if possible. Tonight: Relax. Screen your calls. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH A partner or someone close to you is on the warpath and lets you know how angry he or she is. Being charming or trying to make this person laugh simply will not work. Make yourself unavailable at a certain point. Tonight: Let the fun begin, even if it is Monday. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Others seem determined to let you know how they feel. You come from a very different place — a place that others sense but cannot identify with. Focus on your personal or domestic priorities right now. Tonight: Happy at home.

Man sentenced in Grand Canyon child abuse case Birthday PHOENIX (AP) — An Indiana man convicted of child abuse for forcing his three grandsons on a grueling hike in the Grand Canyon was sentenced to 27 months in prison on Thursday, the minimum term the judge could have imposed. Christopher Alan Carlson, 45, already has served nearly 10 months in prison and could be eligible for early release, so he may only have to be in prison for another 11 months. U.S. District Judge Frederick Martone said the fact that Carlson obviously cares very much for his grandchildren and that he has struggled with attention-deficit disorder and hyperactivity his whole life helped him conclude that Carlson deserved the lighter sentence. He could have been ordered imprisoned for up to 17 years. Carlson told the court that he would never hurt his grandchildren and that he just wanted to show them the beauty of the Grand Canyon. “I love my grandchildren greatly,” said Carlson, who was shackled at the hands and ankles and wore a black-andwhite prison uniform. “I wanted to afford these children a beautiful opportunity at a young age to experience something magnificent.” Over $10,000 in credit card bills?
