The Post reports
Terry R. Miller, 55,

Gallipolis discusses
homelessness,
needle exchange
By Dean Wright
deanwright@aimmediamidwest.com

GALLIPOLIS — During the Tuesday Gallipolis
City Commission meeting, with a reported petition looking to end the Gallia Health Department’s
needle exchange program moving about the Gallia
community, commissioners and members of the
public discussed their opinions regarding homelessness, the needle exchange and drug abuse.
Area resident Roma Wood asked the commissioners if they walked around Gallipolis City Park
in the evening and said she felt the community
was seeing more homeless about the area than
normal and especially in the park.
“I know you know there is a real problem,” said
Wood.
“It’s a public park,” said Commissioner Cody
Caldwell. “We can’t make it illegal to be in a park.”
“It’s not for a homeless person to sleep in, is it?”
asked Wood.
“We talked about if you pass an ordinance
about no sleeping in the park, then what about
the gentlemen that goes down there to watch the
squirrels in the afternoon and accidentally falls
asleep? He’s violated the ordinance the same as
the homeless,” said City Manager Gene Greene.
“We can’t pick and choose who we let into the
park and what we let them do. We know there’s a
problem with homeless. As (Gallipolis Police Chief
Jeff Boyer) has said many times, it’s not a crime to
be homeless…Not only Gallipolis, but every small
municipality is having the same problem. Unless
they do something illegal, there’s not a whole lot
we can do about it…”
“It’s sad,” said Wood. “I mean a lot of them have

TOPS works toward weight loss goals
TUPPERS PLAINS —
TOPS (Take off Pounds
Sensibly) OH#2013
Tuppers Plains met for
their weekly meeting
at the St. Paul United
Methodist Church. Judy
Morgan, leader, called
the meeting to order by
asking for the TOPS and
KOPS (Keep off Pounds
Sensibly) pledges. With
hand over heart the
group then recited the
Pledge to the American
ﬂag.
Connie Rankin
led the group in two
songs: “Way Out in the
Kitchen” and “Story of a
Woman”.
Roll call was given by
weight recorder, Roberta
Henderson. Twelve current active members
answered the call. The
weekly best loser was
Connie Rankin. The
monthly and quarterly
best loser was Kathy
McDaniel.
Three members were
recognized for six weeks
without a weight gain:
Mary Rankin, Cindy
Hyde and Kathy McDaniel. Each received a pin
or charm as their award.
Judy asked the group

to account for their
exercise minutes. These
minutes are recorded
and submitted to TOPS
Inc. to be entered into
the “100 million minutes” exercise challenge.
This is an international
challenge presented by
the TOPS President Rick
Danforth to get members
exercising more. The
results will be revealed
at the end of the year.
The Secretary’s report
was given by Co-Leader,
Cindy Hyde in the
absence of Mary Beth
Morrison, acting secretary. The Treasurer’s
report was given by
Mary Bush. Both reports
were accepted as read.
Contest Chairman,
Connie Rankin reported
that there is no winner yet declared for the
“Marble” game.
Four members are
planning on attending
the Fall Rally in Grove
City, Ohio on Oct. 19th:
Pat Snedden, Roberta
Henderson, Cindy Hyde
and May Frost.
Judy suggested that
the group start the “6
Weeks/6 Gifts” challenge. This is where

members each bring six
small wrapped gifts. At
the end of six weeks winners receive a gift for
each of the weeks that
they have no weight gain
or have lost weight. The
contest will end Nov. 11.
May Frost led the
group in a discussion
on “US Diets Still Have
Health Problems”. It is
said that Americans eat
far too much white bread
and artery clogging fatty
foods. In the last few
years effort has been
made to reduce sugar
intake but it is still too
high. Seventy percent
of Americans are overweight. Members were
encouraged to not only
be aware of these facts
but to think of ways to
reduce snack intake.
Pat Snedden read
“Love Your Heart”. This
was from the TOPS magazine about the beneﬁt
of eating grapes. Grapes
are high in antioxidants
and therefore have extra
health beneﬁts that most
people don’t think about.
They also are without
fat or cholesterol. It is
suggested that women
eat 1 and ¼ cup servings

and men eat 1 and ½ cup
servings.
Because laughter is
truly the best medicine,
the following members
shared jokes: Carlene
Tripplett, Nola Easterling, Cindy Hyde, Pat
Snedden and Kathy
McDaniel.
There will be weigh
in only on Oct. 7 and no
meeting due to a building scheduling issue.
Normal meetings will
resume Oct. 14 with
Mary Bush volunteering
to do the program.
The group dismissed
by singing the TOPS
Enthusiasm Song and
repeating the Helping
Hand Circle.
TOPS information can
be obtained from the
TOPS website at TOPS.

MEIGS HEALTH MATTERS

GALLIA, MEIGS BRIEFS

Health Literacy: What does that even mean?

Life Chain Sunday

The term ‘health literacy’ means how well a
person understands basic
health information and
services needed to make
appropriate health decisions. You can’t tell someone’s health literacy level
just by looking at them. A
person may present themselves well, speak well,
and appear to understand
what is going on, but
this does not mean that
they truly do. Medical
terminology can be overwhelming, confusing, and
downright stressful when
you’re dealing with healthcare decisions for yourself
or a loved one.
On a personal note, I
have many times been in
conversation with a friend
or family member (who
mostly have different nonhealthcare backgrounds),
about something health
related. I assume that
they understand what
I’m talking about and so
I keep going. Only then
about midway through,
they start to look lost I
realize they have no idea
what I’m talking about. At
ﬁrst I think maybe they
just aren’t listening, but
in reality, I feel the exact
same way when they
start talking about stuff
that they are much more
knowledgeable in than
me…like computers and
technology! For example,
my computer literacy
skills are lower than a
person that works in that
industry, just as their
health literacy skills may
be lower than mine.
Individuals with limited
health literacy may have
trouble understanding
medication instructions, comprehending
the details of a consent
form or other important
paper work, reading and
understanding food labels,
communicating symptoms to a clinician, or

TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — Authorities say a bus

and sent 13 people to hospitals.
WTOL-TV reports the accident occurred in
Sylvania Township near Toledo around 10:30 a.m.

Ramm says ﬁve of those taken to hospitals

Threats close high school
MENTOR, Ohio (AP) — One of Ohio’s largest high schools has closed for a day following an
assault that sent a student to the hospital and a
threat of violence.
The (Lake County) News-Herald reports Mentor High School outside Cleveland is closed Friday
because of what school ofﬁcials say was a threat in
retaliation for Thursday’s assault.
Mentor police say a 17-year-old girl was
assaulted by another 17-year-old girl. The victim
was released from the hospital after receiving
treatment. Police say the suspected attacker was
released to her mother and will face charges in
Lake County Juvenile Court.
Mentor High School is one of the largest in the
state with more than 2,600 students.
The school is roughly 24 miles northeast of
downtown Cleveland.

Bill seeks suicide aid
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio bill that
would require public middle and high school

violence prevention training is headed to the state
Senate. The bill passed this week by the Ohio
House also would require every public school to
have a student led anti-violence club and a threat
assessment team composed of school staff.
The proposed Safety And Violence Education
For Students Act, or SAVE Students Act, would
also mandate that schools contract with an anonymous, round-the-clock reporting system to ﬁeld
and report tips about potential safety threats.
Republican Rep. Gayle Manning, of North Ridgeville, introduced the legislation in March.

WASHINGTON — Top
U.S. diplomats encouraged Ukraine’s newly
elected president to
conduct an investigation
linked to Joe Biden’s family in return for a highproﬁle visit with President Donald Trump. It
soon escalated into what
one diplomat feared was
a “crazy” swap that risked
vital U.S. military aid.
That’s according to a
cache of text messages
released late Thursday
by House investigators
following a 10-hour interview with one of the diplomats, Kurt Volker , who
stepped down as special
envoy to Ukraine amid
the Democrats’ impeachment inquiry.
The pages lay out
the raw contours of a
potential quid-pro-quo
exchange — Trump gets

in return for granting a
favor to Ukraine. The
text messages convey a
distinct campaign among
the three diplomats, who
— apparently against
some of their stated better judgment — appear to
be trying to help Ukraine
reset its relationship with
Trump by pushing his
interest in investigating
his Democratic rival and
the 2016 election. Volker,
in a text message on the
morning of a planned July
25 phone call between

In the letter accompanying the subpoena, the
three chairmen agreed,
stating, “Speaker Pelosi
has conﬁrmed that an
impeachment inquiry is
underway, and it is not
for the White House to
say otherwise.”
Trump’s comments at
the White House came
shortly before Democrats
sent a separate extensive
request for documents
to Vice President Mike
Pence about his contacts
with Ukraine.
Pence spokeswoman
Katie Waldman dismissed the demand,
saying that given its
wide scope, “it does not
appear to be a serious
request.”
The House has also
subpoenaed Secretary of
State Mike Pompeo.

Kurt Volker, fmr. U.S. special representative

for Ukraine negotiations, to Ukrainian presidential
aid Andrey Yermak

– Thurs. July 25, 8:36 a.m.
Trump and Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, wrote: “Heard from
White House — Assuming President Z convinces
trump he will investigate
/ “get to the bottom of
what happened” in 2016,
we will nail down date for
visit to Washington.”
An adviser to the Ukrainian president appeared
to go along with the
proposal, which entailed
investigating Burisma, a
Ukrainian gas company
where Joe Biden’s son
Hunter served on the
board.
“Phone call went well,”
wrote Andrey Yermak in
a text to Volker later that
day after the two presidents spoke. Yermak suggested several dates when
Trump and Zelenskiy
could meet in September.
But all that planning
started to unravel when
Zelenskiy’s aide tried
to lock in a date for the

Trump meeting before
putting out the statement
on the investigations.
“Once we have a date
we will call for a press
brieﬁng, announcing
upcoming visit and outlining vision for the reboot
of US-UKRAINE relationship , including among
other things Burisma
and election meddling in

wrote two weeks later.

Volker.
Volker and the two
other diplomats — William “Bill” Taylor, the
charge d’affaires at the
U.S. embassy in Ukraine,
and Gordon Sondland,
the U.S. ambassador to
the European Union —
discussed the statement
Zelenskiy would issue in
support of the investigation. As the negotiations
progressed, Sondland
said Trump “really wants
the deliverable.”

Then, Trump put a
hold on $250 million
in military assistance
to Ukraine, which was
depending on the funds
as part of its defense
against Russia.
“Need to talk with
you,” Yermak wrote to
Volker.
Taylor, the seasoned
top diplomat in the
Ukrainian embassy, conveyed his concerns and
questioned whether the
money was being withheld until Ukraine agreed
to Trump’s demand.
“Are we now saying
that security assistance
and WH meeting are
conditioned on investigations?” he wrote.
“This is my nightmare
scenario,” Taylor texted
his colleagues days later.
Taylor said that by
withholding the Ukrainian assistance, “we have
already shaken their faith
in us.”

Today is Sunday, Oct.
6, the 279th day of 2019.
There are 86 days left in
the year.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On Oct. 6, 1939, in a
speech to the Reichstag,
German Chancellor Adolf
Hitler spoke of his plans
to reorder the ethnic
layout of Europe — a
plan which would entail
settling the “Jewish problem.”
On this date:
In 1536, English theologian and scholar William Tyndale, who was
the ﬁrst to translate the
Bible into Early Modern
English, was executed for
heresy.
In 1892, British poet
laureate Alfred, Lord
Tennyson died in Surrey,
England, at age 83.
In 1927, the era of talking pictures arrived with
the opening of “The Jazz
Singer” starring Al Jolson, a feature containing
both silent and soundsynchronized sequences.
In 1949, President

Harry S. Truman signed
the Mutual Defense
Assistance Act, providing $1.3 billion in
military aid to NATO
countries.
In 1958, the nuclear
submarine USS Seawolf
surfaced after spending
60 days submerged.
In 1973, war erupted
in the Middle East as
Egypt and Syria launched
a surprise attack on
Israel during the Yom
Kippur holiday. (Israel,
initially caught off guard,
managed to push back
the Arab forces before
a cease-ﬁre ﬁnally took
hold in the nearly threeweek conﬂict.)
In 1976, President Gerald R. Ford, in his second
presidential debate with
Democrat Jimmy Carter,
asserted that there was
“no Soviet domination of
eastern Europe.” (Ford
later conceded such was
not the case.)
In 1979, Pope John

amount of sharing and
reusing syringes, in turn
increasing the amount of
infectious disease spread
by this community along
with the improper disposal of dirty syringes.

Sarah Hawley is the managing
editor of The Daily Sentinel.

The program goal is prevention, not permission.
Preventing just one case
of Hepatitis C and HIV
will save taxpayer dollars,
not to mention the life
of an individual suffering with addiction. The
syringe service program
is also 100% ran on donations. Taxpayer dollars
are not utilized to run
this program. The Health
Department publishes
this information yearly
in our annual report. If
you would like any more
information, do not hesitate to contact the Health
Department.”

prize, as well as big
news on a recent grant
award.
“We are incredibly
proud to announce
that our FD has been
approved for an Assistance to Fireﬁghters Grant funded by
FEMA. There were
over 8,400 applicants
this year. About 10%
of those were awarded
grants. We were lucky
to be awarded a grant
for $45,000,” read the
statement.
“This grant is
incredibly competitive.
In fact, we’ve only
been awarded one in
the past, but we apply
each year with high
hopes. We want to give
a big thank you to our
Secretary, EMT, and
resident grant writer
Cheri McCollum. Each
year Cheri compiles
all of the necessary
info, researches, and
designs a narrative to
convince the powers
that be to choose our
FD. With just these
FEMA grants Cheri
has been able to bring
over $100,000 to our
Township,” added the
statement from the
department.
The grant will be
used to purchase seven
new SCBA breathing
packs to replace those
that are more than 10
years old. The updated
equipment will be the
same type as the other
departments in the
county use according
to the department,
which will be an
advantage on larger
ﬁres. The department
already had two of the
new packs from a different grant, meaning
there will be nine new,

matching devices for
the ﬁre ﬁghters to use.
The grant requires
a ﬁve percent match,
which is $2,250 for
which the department
would be responsible.
The $500 prize from
Loyalty is Forever
will be put toward the
department’s match,
leaving only $1,750 to
be paid from township
funds.
“We are incredibly
grateful for the chance
to replace outdated
equipment with the
newest, most effective,
and safest SCBA available for such a fraction
of the price to our
community,” concluded the statement.
The Firehouse 12
campaign will continue
throughout the remainder of the year with
the calendar purchases
going to beneﬁt each
of the 12 departments.
The calendars are $12,
which is $1 for each
department. The goal
is to raise $12,000
by the end of 2019 in
order to give $1,000
to each of the departments.
The production costs
for the calendars was
covered by Farmers
Bank, with the photos
taken by Bartee Photography, allowing for
the entire purchase
price of each calendar
to go directly to the
departments.
”It is fun to work
with the departments
and to see them working together to make
this happen for everyone,” concluded Richards.

12 campaign visit

Eagles soar past Wahama, 54-18
By Bryan Walters

Bryan Walters|OVP Sports

Eastern junior Blake Newland (7) tries to elude Wahama defender Josh Frye (23)
during the first half of Friday night’s TVC Hocking football contest in Tuppers
Plains, Ohio.

TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio —
Another efﬁcient effort from
the Eagles.
Eastern churned out 322
rushing yards, scored on
its ﬁrst six possessions and
capped the ﬁrst half with a
pick-6 on Friday night en route
to a 54-18 Homecoming victory over visiting Wahama in a
Week 6 Tri-Valley Conference
Hocking Division football
contest at East Shade River
Stadium.
The Eagles (4-2, 2-2 TVC
Hocking) never trailed, but
found themselves locked in a
dog-ﬁght early on while cling-

ing to a 7-6 edge less than
three minutes into regulation.
The hosts, however, responded by scoring on their next ﬁve
possessions while turning a
1-point lead into a commanding 40-6 advantage with 7:54
left until halftime.
The White Falcons (2-4, 2-3)
followed by throwing their ﬁrst
interception of the night as
Will Oldaker came down with
the takeaway.
The Red and White retaliated with an interception of their
own as Hunter Board produced
the guests’ only takeaway while
retaining possession at the
EHS 20.
Facing a third-and-11, Wahama quarterback Brayden Dav-

enport had his attempt picked
off by Bryce Newland at the 29.
The sophomore secured the
takeaway and rumbled 29 yards
to paydirt while extending the
lead out to 47-6 with 1:38 left
until halftime.
Steven Fitzgerald capped a
5-play, 62-yard opening drive
with a 9-yard run, allowing
Eastern to take a permanent
lead of 7-0 at the 10:01 mark of
the ﬁrst.
WHS answered with a
60-yard pass from Davenport to
Board at the 9:06 mark, covering 70 yards in two plays while
closing the deﬁcit down to 7-6.

Blue Devils
burn Fairland
Dragons, 28-0
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com

PROCTORVILLE, Ohio — Three times four
equals 12 … even on the gridiron.
Junior James Armstong — who wears number
three — scored four rushing touchdowns while
helping the Gallia Academy football team notch its
12th consecutive league win on Friday night during a 28-0 decision over host Fairland in an Ohio
Valley Conference contest in Lawrence County.
Armstrong eclipsed the 1,000-yard rushing plateau for the season with a 30-carry, 197-yard performance on Friday that included a trio of ﬁrst half
touchdown runs before nailing the door shut with
a ﬁnal TD run in the fourth.
Armstrong gave the Blue Devils (6-0, 3-0 OVC)
a quick 6-0 cushion with a 3-yard run in the opening canto. Andrew Toler tacked on the ﬁrst of
four successful point-after tries for a 7-point edge
through a quarter of play.
Armstrong added a 1-yard run and a 45-yard run
in the second canto, which allowed the Blue and
White to extend their cushion out to 21 points at
the break.
After a scoreless third, Armstrong plunged in
from a yard out and completed the scoring at its
ﬁnal 28-point margin.
The Blue and White — who have won 13 consecutive regular season games — produced 390
yards of total offense, with all but 87 of those coming on the ground.
The Dragons (3-3, 1-2), conversely, mustered
only 173 yards of total offense, with 83 of those
coming on the ground. FHS did ﬁnish the game
plus-1 in turnover differential.
Beasy followed Armstrong with 91 yards on
seven carries, while Donevyn Woodson added 32
yards on ﬁve totes.
Noah Vanco completed 9-of-11 passes for 87
yards, with Woodson leading the wideouts with
two catches for 28 yards. Cade Roberts and Briar
Williams also hauled in two passes each for 18 and
16 yards, respectively.
Michael Stitt paced Fairland with 57 rushing
yards on ﬁve attempts, followed by J.D Brumﬁeld
with 27 yards on seven rushes.
Max Ward completed 12-of-23 passes for 69
yards and also threw an interception. Zander

Mercerville, Ohio.

Tornadoes take down South Gallia, 39-14
By Alex Hawley

MERCERVILLE, Ohio
— Talk about putting a
game away in the second
half.
The Southern football
team turned its four-point
halftime edge into its ﬁfth
win of the year on Friday
in Gallia County, as the
Tornadoes scored 23
unanswered points for a
39-12 win over Tri-Valley
Conference Hocking Division host South Gallia.
The Rebels (1-5, 1-4
TVC Hocking) — celebrating Homecoming —
were on the board ﬁrst,
as senior Kyle Northup
broke a 56-yard touchdown run on the ﬁrst play
from scrimmage. The
hosts were 0-of-2 on twopoint tries in the contest,
and led 6-0 eight seconds
into play.
Southern (5-1, 4-1)
— securing its fourth
straight non-losing
season with the win —
answered on the ensuing
drive, going 58 yards in
eight plays. The Tornadoes tied the game with a
two-yard touchdown pass
from Gage Shuler to Will
Wickline with 8:29 left in
the opening stanza. Shuler tossed the two-point
conversion pass to Jonah
Diddle, giving the guests
the lead for good.
Next, the Purple and
Gold executed an onside
kick, with Coltin Parker
recovering for the guests
at the Rebel 45. Southern
converted a fourth-andthree from the SGHS
27 on the sixth play of
the drive, and then SHS
senior Trey McNickle
broke a 20-yard touch-

into the ﬁnal quarter.
Southern lost a fumble at
its own 34 on the second
play of the ﬁnale, but
backed the Rebels up four
yards over four plays and
regained possession at
the SHS 38.
Seven plays later,
Southern was up 30-12,
with Shuler tossing a
31-yard touchdown pass
to Cole Steele. Four plays
after that, a bad snap led
to a safety, making Southern’s lead 32-12.
The Purple and Gold
put the ﬁnishing touches
on their 39-12 victory
with a six-play, 39-yard
drive, resulting in a
24-yard touchdown run
by Josh Tanksley and
a successful point-after
kick.

WELLSTON, Ohio —
In seven days, the Raiders
went from the peak to the
valley.
After collecting its first
win of the year last weekend, the River Valley football team suffered its largest setback of the season
Friday night during a 42-0
decision to host Wellston
in a Tri-Valley Conference
Ohio Division matchup in
Jackson County.
The Golden Rockets
(5-1, 2-0) notched their
fifth consecutive win in a
rather impressive fashion
as the visiting Raiders
(1-5, 1-2) produced just
five first downs total in
the game … and four of
those came on the opening drive of the first
quarter.
The Silver and Black —
who also converted a first
down on their final drive
of regulation — commit-

ted four turnovers that
led to 18 points for WHS,
all of which came in the
first quarter.
After a Jonathon
Garvin interception,
Jeremiah Frisby started
the scoring by hauling in
a 15-yard pass from R.J.
Kemp for a 6-0 edge at
the 4:59 mark of the first.
RVHS fumbled on its
ensuing possession, and
Rylan Molihan converted
a 12-yard scoring run
at the 4:34 mark for a
12-point cushion.
The ensuing kickoff
hit a Raider and bounced
into the arms of Frisby,
then Kemp found Hunter
Smith with a 20-yard
scoring pass for an
18-point lead with 2:56
remaining in the first.
Molihan tacked on a
second rushing score in
the second period after
plunging in from a yard
out, making it a 26-0 contest with 10:27 left until
halftime.

Jared Reese went
0-for-1 passing and Justin Stump was 0-for-2
overall, which included
throwing one interception.
Molihan led the Golden
Rockets with 94 yards on
nine rushes, while Kemp
completed 6-of-11 passes
for 69 yards. Isaac Molihan also completed 3-of-6
passes for 60 yards.
Garvin hauled in a
team-best three passes
for 27 yards, while Pacey
Rainer and Smith caught
two passes each for 27
and 33 yards respectively.
It was the second time
that RVHS had been
shut out this fall, with
the other coming against
Gallia Academy in Week
2 by a 38-0 count.

Calling all warriors of God in
Gallia County.
Ephesians 6:10-18. “For we do not wrestle against flesh and
blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers
of darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the
heavenly places.

Yes, we need a new jail. Yes, drugs and crime are a problem, but do not blame
the sheriff. Do not grumble and complain because we know what God says
about complaining as we can see in scripture. Hebrews 3:7-19, Numbers 11:1-35,
Num. 14:1-12, Num. 20:1-13.

OH-70151683

We are called the army of God for a reason. Drugs cannot stay in Gallia County
if Christians would fall on their knees in prayer. Most of the crime, most of the
violence and suicide, and most of the prisoners is due to drugs. We are not
begging God; we boldly enter the throne room of God by the blood of Jesus.
It is the will of God for drugs to be gone. God gave us the right to choose what
happens on this earth. We do it by prayer. If drugs are a problem it is because
Christians have allowed Satan to sneak into our community. In Matthew 6:9-13
Jesus teaches us how to pray. “Your kingdom come; your will be done on earth
as it is in heaven.” In Matthew 6:33 “But seek first the kingdom of God and His
righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.”
God loves the addicted but hates the drugs. It is time to set the captives free by
the power of God. It is time to take Gallia County for God. Pray and always keep
on praying.
