Stanley said the sentence range is 10-15 years in prison. Prior to the jury receiving the case on Wednesday afternoon, the state presented four witnesses — Rutland Volunteer Fireﬁghters Jason McDaniel and Brad Smith and Ohio State Highway Patrol Troopers Christopher Finley and Shawn Cunningham. The defense presented only one witness, a woman who had seen Carr and Barnhart together at her residence earlier on the evening of Jan. 13, with Carr driving at the time the two left at around 6 or 6:30 p.m. She stated she did not know who was driving at the time of the crash. Knight asked that bond for Barnhart be continued, allowing for him to remain free until the sentencing on Monday. Stanley stated that given the seriousness of the convictions and the prior record that Barnhart should be Benefit remanded to the custody of the sheriff pending sentencing.

The following was written by The Los Angeles Times Editorial Board, Los Angeles Times: Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett is known as a “value” investor — someone who buys into companies that are selling for less than they’re really worth. When his company provides its workers healthcare beneﬁts, however, Buffett isn’t paying for value. Instead, employers like Berkshire, which owns a diverse portfolio of ﬁnancial and industrial companies, are paying everhigher amounts for their workers’ policies and getting less coverage in return. That problem helped drive Berkshire Hathaway to announce plans Tuesday to join forces with online retail giant Amazon and Wall Street powerhouse JPMorgan Chase & Co. to create an independent venture that aims to reduce their With more than 1.2 healthcare costs while million employees improving employee satworldwide isfaction. Notably, they combined, said the new company will be “free from proﬁtAmazon, Berkshire making incentives and and JPMorgan constraints.” Chase have the What this new comkind of bargaining pany will do, though, is anybody’s guess. “Our power that could group does not come make a dent in to this problem with what their workers answers,” Buffett conceded. Nevertheless, it’s are spending on hospitals, a welcome signal that companies are ﬁnally try- prescription drugs ing to rein in the rising and outpatient cost of healthcare, rather care. than simply passing more of the pain on to their employees. For a country that spends so much on health — Milken Institute health care economist Hugh Waters pegged it at $3.3 trillion in 2016, or $10,348 per person — we’ve managed to do surprisingly little about rising costs besides complain. Fears of rationing care keep federal and state governments from responding aggressively to higher drug and treatment costs, and a whole host of factors have led millions of Americans to fall into the trap of costly and preventable chronic illnesses, such as diabetes. With more than 1.2 million employees worldwide combined, Amazon, Berkshire and JPMorgan Chase have the kind of bargaining power that could make a dent in what their workers are spending on hospitals, prescription drugs and outpatient care. But let’s be realistic. Even employers this large don’t have a lot of leverage over the sole manufacturer of a blockbuster drug, or the only obstetrician in a rural county, or the dominant hospital chain in a region. That’s why the other aspect of the companies’ effort — using technology to help employees better manage and obtain care — may be more promising. Because part of the solution is to reduce the demand for care by helping Americans stay healthier, and to increase competition by helping people shop more intelligently for healthcare services. The latter is extremely hard today, given the complexity and opacity in healthcare pricing. If these companies struck a blow for transparency in that area, we’d all be better off. Amazon already sells plenty of medical devices and ﬁtness products, and it’s reportedly looking to compete with local pharmacies for the retail sale of prescription drugs. If this new effort helps Amazon’s more than 540,000 employees stay healthier and ﬁnd high-quality, lower-priced services, it could ultimately offer consumers something better than step trackers and Ace bandages. But we won’t know until we see the answers the three companies and their new venture eventually have to offer. THEIR VIEW Can schools ban ‘best friends’? One of the worst things that happens to adults is that they forget what it’s like to be a kid. They forget how frightening childhood can be, and how nice it is when you have a best friend, how lonely it is when you don’t. This brings me to an interesting debate over a trend going on in schools these days: The banning of best friends, because by deﬁnition “best friend” is an exclusionary business. It involves educators and social engineers on the left and conservatives on the right, and all have much to say. And all of them have one thing in common: They’re adults. Kids know how to deal with adults. They walk in the land of the giants. Some learn to trick adults and tell them what they want to hear. At least the emotionally smart kids learn quickly. They learn the appropriate prompts, the reassurances, the tricks of language and facial expressions to give just enough but not too much. “You OK?” says dad. “I’m OK,” says kid. “Good,” says dad. “OK.” Yet all too often, and I include myself in this, we hear what we want to hear and see what we want to see. Adults are stressed anyway, with careers and bills. Even helicopter parents, so intent on hovering and maintaining low altitude, may ﬁnd their ﬁeld of vision is limited.

These shifts lead to emotional distress and would be signiﬁcantly less likely if our kids spoke of close or even good friends rather than best friends. And, if kids have best friends, does that also imply that they have ‘worst friends?’” Yes, it does imply that. It’s a condition called “life.” It’s not a subject, but you either learn it or you don’t. Schools banning best friends won’t change human nature, or undo years of cruelty inﬂicted by parents desperate for their children to be in a “popular” crowd. But schools can help. My wife, a teacher, tells me of a great middle school where the kids, like children everywhere, cliqued up, even at lunch. Other children were left to eat alone. So a wise principal came up with a great idea. Hand out cards with numbers that corresponded to lunch tables, with new numbers and new tables every day. Some kids balked but they went along. They sat next to students they wouldn’t have talked to otherwise. Eventually, they talked to each other. They learned. Adults may forget that schools really can’t mandate kindness. But they can encourage it. Kindness isn’t math or science, but it, too, can be learned. John Kass is a columnist for the Chicago Tribune.

The Meigs boys basketball team claimed its ﬁfth win in its last seven chances on Tuesday evening in Larry R. Morrison Gymnasium, defeating non-conference guest Point Pleasant by a 61-58 ﬁnal. The Marauders (5-11) never trailed in the ﬁrst half, hitting a trio of three-pointers in the ﬁrst four minutes and leading by a 9-4 count. Meigs outscored Point Pleasant (1-12) by a 10-4 count over the next four minutes and headed into the second quarter with a second quarter, as the Marauder lead grew to a game-high 16 points, at 24-8. Meigs only hit one more ﬁeld goal in the ﬁrst half, however, as Point Pleasant trimmed the deficit to 30-25 by halftime.

Afterwards, SGHS coach Kent Wolfe acknowledged that his troops have made real strides in the last month — but Tuesday night’s effort also resulted in a post-game smile that the ﬁrst-year mentor didn’t try to hide. “We’ve been playing pretty decent over the last few weeks, but tonight was probably the best 32 minutes that we’ve put together this year … and it all started with our defense,” Wolfe said. “We did a good job of neutralizing their inside guys and I thought our seven guys played their tails off. I couldn’t have asked for any better of an effort.” EHS coach Jeremy Hill looked a little shellshocked following the game, but he was also impressed with the Rebels’ performance in the rematch. As the ﬁfth-year mentor noted, his troops just ran into a buzz-saw. “All the credit goes to South Gallia and to Coach Wolfe tonight. Those kids wanted it more, they played hard and they came up with all of the hustle plays,” Hill said. “They shot the ball way better than they did the ﬁrst time and they showed just how much they’ve grown as a group since that ﬁrst game. “We just did not do a lot of things right tonight. I don’t feel that we have regressed as much as I think that South Gallia has just gotten a lot better. They were deﬁnitely a lot better than us tonight.” Both teams started strong after each hit their ﬁrst three shot attempts, but the timing of turnovers also dictated the early ﬂow of the lead change. The Rebels opened up an early 4-0 edge, but the Eagles countered with six straight points for their only lead of the game with 5:04 remaining. Eastern missed its ﬁnal ﬁve shot attempts of the ﬁrst quarter and SGHS tied the game at six just 30 seconds later on a Curtis Haner basket — which started the 13-0 charge. Austin Stapleton gave SGHS a permanent lead with a trifecta at the 3:58 mark, the ﬁrst of eight straight points by Stapleton over the next two minutes. Haner added a three-pointer at the 1:29 mark to complete the run for an 11-point cushion after eight minutes of play. sjones@aimmediamidwest.com POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — The visitors hit a plethora of trifectas in the opening minutes, setting the tone for another unfavorable result for the Lady Knights. The Poca girls basketball team hit seven three-point ﬁeld goals in the ﬁrst period against non-conference host Point Pleasant on Tuesday night en route to a 57-36 win. PPHS (1-14) was held without a ﬁeld goal until Peyton Campbell’s three-pointer with 36 seconds remaining in the ﬁrst quarter ended a 22-0 run by the visitors. As a result, the Lady Dots (8-10) closed out the game’s initial eight minutes with a 25-3 advantage. The Red and Black made 1-of-10 ﬁeld goal attempts and committed 13 turnovers in the ﬁrst period.

Of course, being the good coach that he is, he took that away from us. That opened it up for us to get some clean looks. Once we got some momentum and saw a few go down, I felt like the kids started feeding off that. “Our bench was great tonight about encouraging the players that were out there,” Williams added. “I’m very proud of our kids, I thought they played hard and played together. It was probably one of the more complete game we played, besides the turnovers.” The Big Blacks committed 19 turnovers in the game, nine more than the Marauders.

This marks Meigs’ ﬁrst win on its home ﬂoor this season, ending a fourgame home skid. “We’re young and we like to play on the road, and I honestly think they get a little tensed up here at home,” Fry said. “Point Pleasant, as long as you can shoot the way they can shoot, you should always be in the game. They’ve had a lot of similar things happen with injuries and other things like we have, so I thought it might be pretty close coming into this thing.” Baer hit a pair of three-pointers and ﬁnished with a game-high 28 points, a dozen of which came from the free throw line.

Hunter Bush scored nine for the guests, while Kyle Martin added four. “We’ve been shooting the ball a lot in practice and it seemed like tonight it ﬁnally started to pay off a little bit,” Williams said. “We just have to work on taking care of the ball. I think they saw that getting the ball inside really helps them outside in the long run.

The Bears then scored 12 of the ﬁrst 14 points in the second half to take a commanding 54-36 advantage after a threepointer by EJ Onu with 16:20 left in the game. SSU continued to pull away and grabbed its largest lead of the night, 76-55, after a pair of free throws by Jayllen Carter with 7:24 remaining, setting the stage for the Rio rally. The RedStorm sliced the deﬁcit to 82-75 with 1:53 left to play after a pair of free throws by Hill and - after a timeout - came up with a steal on Shawnee’s ensuing inbounds play, but a layup attempt by senior Devon Price (Pickerington, OH) which could’ve brought Rio within ﬁve was off the mark. The Bears rebounded Price’s miss and scored on the other end to push the lead back to nine with 1:31 remaining and Rio got no closer than eight points the rest of the way. The RedStorm ﬁnished with three more overall ﬁeld goals (30-27) and one more three-point goal (8-7) than SSU, but was overwhelmed at the free throw line. Rio ﬁnished 14-for-19 at the charity stripe, while the Bears were a whopping 35-for-43 at the line. The two teams were whistled for 53 combined fouls, including ﬁve technical fouls. Rio sophomore Stanley Christian (Norfolk, VA) and Carter received two technicals each, meaning that both will be suspended for each of their team’s next game. The night also included a pair of incidents involving spectators, resulting in the ejection of two Shawnee State fans. Hill led Rio Grande with a game-high 32 points and four steals, while Price had 12 points to go along with a teamhigh six rebounds and a game-best four assists. Senior Kenny Council (Jacksonville, FL) also had 10 points in a losing cause for the RedStorm. Carter had 14 of his team-high 18 points for the Bears in the second half and ﬁnished 10-for-11 at the free throw line. Rio Grande transfer Matt Rhodes led four other Shawnee players in double ﬁgures with 17 points, while Onu had 14 points, Frederick Moore netted 11 points and Tamal Watkins tossed in 10 points.

EURZVH�MREV��SRVW�\RXU�UHVXPH��JHW�DGYLFH jobmatchohio.com �SPORTS 10 Thursday, February 1, 2018 Hernandez, Reds agree to $5M, 2-year deal CINCINNATI (AP) — Despite pitching in the playoffs last season, reliever David Hernandez worried that he would wind up having to settle for another minor league contract and an invitation to some team’s big league training camp next month. The Cincinnati Reds surprised him by offering a $5 million, two-year deal. “It all kind of happened quickly, which is weird,” Hernandez said Tuesday after the deal was announced. The 32-year-old right-hander will make $2.5 million annually and can earn another $1 million each year in performance bonuses. The Reds expect him to move into a set-up role for closer Raisel Iglesias, upgrading a bullpen that was their main offseason priority. Hernandez had a 3.11 ERA in 64 appearances for the Los Angeles Angels and Arizona last season and made two scoreless relief appearances against the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL Division Series. He also has pitched for Baltimore and Philadelphia. Cincinnati’s bullpen had the most walks and hit batters in the major leagues and it led the NL in runs. The bullpen’s 4.65 ERA was second-worst in the NL. The Reds agreed in December to a $4.5 million, two-year contract with 32-year-old reliever Jared Hughes, who pitched for the Brewers last season. Iglesias returns as the closer after converting 28 of 30 save opportunities last season. “I feel I’ve got an opportunity to pitch late in the game and hopefully lock down some big outs,” Hernandez said on a conference call. He is much farther ahead than a year ago. Hernandez went to spring training with the San Francisco Giants last year with a minor league contract on March 24. Atlanta signed him to a minor league deal and traded him to the Angels. He made his big league season debut on April 24, was dealt to Arizona on July 31 and became a free agent after the season. Until the Reds made their offer, Hernandez thought he’d have to accept another nonroster invitation to camp with some team in February. “I started to get a little frustrated,” he said. “You kind of think you’re going to have to go the route you did the previous year. I kind of just waited and waited and waited some more.” General manager Dick Williams said Hernandez’s signing will likely be the Reds’ last signiﬁcant free-agent addition this offseason. They might sign players to minor league deals to ﬁll out the bench and provide depth following the departure of shortstop Zack Cozart, who became a free agent and joined the Angels. Daily Sentinel Hornets sting Gallia Academy, 60-41 By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com COAL GROVE, Ohio — They had been ﬂoating like a butterﬂy. Tuesday night, the Blue Devils were stung by a bee. The Gallia Academy boys basketball team had its nine-game winning streak come to an abrupt halt as host Coal Grove salvaged a season split with a 60-41 decision in an Ohio Valley Conference matchup in Lawrence County.

OSU takes control early, beats Indiana 71-56 COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — After starting slow at times this season, No. 17 Ohio State didn’t waste time jumping all over Indiana on Tuesday night. Indiana’s Zach McRoberts hit two quick shots, one of them a 3-pointer, in the ﬁrst 1:14 to put the Hoosiers up by one, but Ohio State reeled off a 10-0 run and didn’t relinquish the lead again in a 71-56 victory for the Buckeyes. “I think they set the tone early with their physicality on both ends of the ﬂoor and knocked us on our heels pretty quick,” Indiana coach Archie Miller said. “And we were working uphill from there most of the night.” Jae’Sean Tate had 16 points as Ohio State (19-5, 10-1 Big Ten) MEIGS COUNTY Visitors Guide 2018 three in a row and four of ﬁve.
