MEIGS COUNTY — Students from local high schools were chosen to attend the 2018 Regional Scholars Leadership Conference on April 17 and 18. The Leadership Conference is designed for high school juniors. Meigs County had 15 representatives out of 72 at the event. The Gifted Coordinators of Southeast Ohio collaborate to organize this event that is held every spring. Students build leadership skills and learn group dynamics, personality types and differences in communication styles through the two-day event. This year the event was held at Camp Akita in Logan. The camp is supportive of outdoor activities including ground ini- tiatives, a 50 foot Alpine climbing tower and archery. Students were encouraged to participate in activities outside their comfort zone. Small session options were Archery, team-building and leadership qualities, ground initiatives and the climbing tower/rope swing. A financial aid, scholarship and admissions essay session was presented by a representative from Ohio State University with a college fair held after. The college fair allowed the students to become familiar with over 15 colleges and universities in Ohio and West Virginia. At the conclusion of the event, the students left with new discoveries about themselves and lasting friendships. Submitted by Meigs Local Gifted Coordinator Sarah Lee.

THEIR VIEW Lax FAA oversight of Allegiant Air adds to growing concerns This editorial by St. Louis Post-Dispatch: If the Federal Aviation Administration were a business, its stock would have tanked right along with that of Allegiant Air after a blistering “60 Minutes” expose on a history of safety problems that federal inspectors appeared to have overlooked. The nation saw the horrors that can result from apparently lax vigilance after an engine explosion aboard a Southwest Airlines flight last week resulted in a passenger’s death. The Southwest accident is under investigation. The FAA says it vigilantly monitors safety efforts at all airlines and had found nothing alarming at Allegiant. Allegiant’s safety record indicates otherwise. It matters to St. Louis-area residents because Allegiant is the only passenger airline serving MidAmerica Airport in Mascoutah, about 25 miles from downtown St. Louis. It does not operate at Lambert airport. The “60 Minutes” report, following a sevenmonth investigation, was a sobering portrait of the Las Vegas-based budget airline. It detailed how Allegiant is nearly 3.5 times more likely to have a midair breakdown than similar airlines. Between January 2016 and October 2017, Allegiant aircraft had more than 100 serious mechanical failures, including midair engine breakdowns, aborted takeoffs, rapid descents and flight control malfunctions. The FAA raised few concerns as the safety problems mounted. Vigorous enforcement of safety issues is the only way to ensure passenger safety. The FAA’s job is to be the enforcer, not the airlines’ friend. Allegiant has never had a fatal accident, but transportation safety experts told “60 Minutes” they wouldn’t fly with the carrier. An airline pilots’ representative said some Allegiant pilots and maintenance workers claim the carrier has discouraged them from reporting problems and mechanical deficiencies. The FAA’s lack of intervention appears to be rooted in a 2015 policy change. The agency switched from actively enforcing safety rules with fines, letters and sanctions to working quietly with airlines behind the scenes to fix problems. The FAA’s website calls it a “compliance philosophy” that embraces a “just culture.” The 2015 change put an emphasis on carriers’ self-disclosure of errors and allowed for “due consideration of honest mistakes.” But it emphasized that underlying safety concerns had to be fixed. Allegiant called the “60 Minutes” report “a false narrative” that showed “a fundamental misunderstanding of FAA compliance practice and history.” Most of the problems occurred with the carrier’s fleet of old McDonnell Douglas MD-80 jets, which Allegiant said will be retired by the end of the year. The FAA said it was satisfied with Allegiant’s actions to remedy its mechanical problems. Three Democratic senators have requested a Transportation Department investigation into how the FAA handled safety concerns at Allegiant. The traveling public badly needs reassurance — especially after the Southwest tragedy — that FAA inspectors are doing their jobs and making sure the airlines don’t even think of throttling back on compliance. THEIR VIEW Conversations about end-of-life matters Talking about the reality of death is difficult, but it’s a conversation that needs to happen. Aging parents may dread the discussion. Adult children may dread the discussion. And both may worry about upsetting each other. While some aging parents’ converse with adult children about assisted living facilities vs. home healthcare, medical decisions, and other matters related to illness and dying; others may not. “It’s my business!” Some parents may stubbornly refuse to give any financial info to adult children. Think about this situation. We fear the loss of control over our own lives when things drastically change. Address emotions by listening and showing empathy. One day, you’re going to be in their shoes. According to a 2017 Pew Research Center survey, “More than threequarters of adults ages 65 and older say they’ve talked with their children about their wills; nearly two-thirds say they’ve talked about what to do if they can no longer make their own medical decisions, and more than half tinue and escalate. say they’ve talked Tens of millions of with their children adult children will about what to do if one day join the they can no longer millions of today’s live independently. caregivers— Similar shares who are usually of adult children women,” in a 2017 of older parents Melissa article in Psycholreport having had Martin these conversaContributing ogy Today.

Of course, some aging parents may choose to make plans and arrangements without the input of adult children. And instead they may utilize an attorney, sibling, or relative to safely store information until death. If a parent refuses to discuss end-of-life matters with an adult child, ask him to talk to attorney. Then transport him to the office, and set in the waiting room. American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) shares a plethora of information on their webpage, Funeral Planning: Talk About It Now. www.aarp.org/. After the end-of-life decisions and plans are made with the paperwork signed and in order, the conversation can go back to activities of daily living. “The people who pretend that dying is rather like strolling into the next room always leave me unconvinced. Death, like birth, must be a tremendous event.” –J.B. Priestley Melissa Martin, Ph.D, is an author, columnist, educator, and therapist.

In the end, though, the RedStorm did manage to survive one of their two collapses and emerge with a much needed doubleheader split. Midway University came off the mat to post a 9-8 win in the opener of the twin bill, while Rio pushed across a run in the ninth inning of the nightcap for a 10-9 win over the Eagles at Chandler Field. The split left Rio Grande at 23-24 overall and 14-10 in the River States Conference, just one-half game behind Midway for third place in the league standings. The Eagles finished the day at 23-20 overall and 14-9 in the RSC. Saturday’s marathon took three hours and 15 minutes to complete the opening game, while the back end of the twogame set lasted three hours and 49 minutes. The two teams there 686 combined pitches on the day. In Rio’s game two victory, the RedStorm spotted their hosts a 2-0 first inning lead before scoring twice in the second, four times in the third and three more times in the fourth to take a 9-2 lead in the scheduled seven-inning series finale. Midway rallied in the home sixth, though, scoring seven runs on just three hits to knot the score at 9-9. Rio pitching walked four batters in the inning, while a passed ball and an error also helped fuel the inning. The game ventured into extra innings and stayed deadlocked until the RedStorm came to bat in the top of the ninth. Freshman Caleb Fetzer (Van Wert, OH) opened the inning with a single to center and, after each of the next two batters were retired routinely, scored on a triple by senior Cody Blackburn (Amanda, OH) to deep left-center. Sophomore Dylan Shockley (Minford, OH) — the last of five Rio pitchers — allowed a leadoff single to Will Broady in the bottom of the ninth before retiring the next three batters to nail down the win. Fetzer and junior Matt Joyce (Minford, OH) both went 3-for-4 with two RBI in the winning effort, while Blackburn finished 2-for-5 and drove in three runs. Fetzer’s hit total included the first home run of his collegiate career — a two-run blast as part of the four-run third — while Joyce and sophomore Eli Daniels (Minford, OH) each had The following is a list of current or former county residents who had unclaimed funds worth $50 or more reported to the Ohio Department of Commerce Division of Unclaimed Funds within the past year.

Shockley got his second win in three decisions, allowing four hits and striking out four over 3-1/3 scoreless innings. Broady and Danny McGuire had two hits each in the loss for Midway. McGuire and Tyler Jones drove in two runs apiece as well. Barrett Croslin, the last of five pitchers for the Eagles, suffered the loss. Game one saw Rio Grande strike for four runs in the first inning and two more markers in the second to take an early 6-0 lead. The Eagles rallied for four runs in the fifth and three runs in the sixth to take an 8-7 lead before the RedStorm tied the game on a run-scoring single by senior Juan Cruz (Juana Diaz, P.R.). That’s how things stayed until the Midway ninth. Matthew Olson reached on a one-out infield single and moved to second on two-out single to center by Broady before being replaced by pinch-runner Ryan Kayoda. Francis Mejia followed with a bad hop single up the middle, which allowed Kayoda to score the winning run. Shockley went 3-for-3 with a two-run home run to lead the RedStorm in a losing cause, while junior Michael Rodriguez (Santo Domingo, D.R.) added a two-run double in Rio’s four-run first inning. Senior Jacob Hastings (Commercial Point, OH) took the loss in relief. Kurt Paldino had three hits, including a double, and drove in three runs to pace Midway, while Koy Lindsey went 2-for5 with three RBI and Croslin finished 2-for-4 with a triple and a run batted in. Broady and Mejia also had two hits for the Eagles, with Connor Lindsay earning the win after three innings of scoreless relief. Rio Grande is scheduled to return to action on Tuesday, weather permitting, in the final home games on the regular season schedule. The Redstorm are supposed to be part of a three-team triple header which also involves the College of St. Joseph in Vermont and the University of Pikeville. Rio is slated to face the College of St. Joseph at 10 a.m. and Pikeville at 4 p.m. The two visiting schools will meet in between at 1 p.m. All three contests are scheduled for seven innings.

The RedStorm used a pair of big innings to throttle the Celtics, 12-2, in the mercy rule-shortened opener of the twinbill, while a solid pitching performance from Mallory Powell fueled a 1-0 win in the nightcap at Rio Softball Park. Rio Grande improved to 28-11 overall and 12-2 in league play with the wins, putting itself back into a tie for first place in the RSC standings with Indiana University Southeast in the process. Carlow dropped to 13-12 overall and 5-7 in the RSC as a result of the sweep. The day started well for the Celtics, who touched up Rio junior starter Kelsey Conkey (Minford, OH) for two runs and four hits in the first inning of the opener. Carlow managed just two hits and no runs for the remainder of the day. The third of the four first inning hits — a single by Abby Tatgenhorst — gave the Celtics their 2-0 lead, but Rio Grande got a three-run home run from sophomore Michaela Criner (Bremen, OH) to highlight a four-run second inning which gave the RedStorm a lead they would never relinquish. Rio finished off the win by scoring eight times in the fifth inning. Freshman Mary Pica (Minford, Cavs win 104-100 at Indiana to even series at 2 Courtesy photo Rio Grande’s Mary Pica is congratulated by her teammates at home plate after hitting a fifth inning home run in Friday’s game one win over Carlow. The RedStorm swept a twinbill from the Celtics by scores of 12-2 and 1-0. OH) had a two-run home run, freshman Kayla Slutz (Navarre, OH) had a run-scoring double, Criner — the reigning RSC Player of the Week — had a two-run triple and Conkey hit a threerun walk-off home run to end the game. Criner finished 3-for4 with five RBI, while Conkey had two hits and three RBI. Juniors Carly Skeese (Newark, OH) and Kelly Fuchs (Williamsport, OH) added two hits each in the win. Conkey earned her 14th win in 16 decisions in the pitcher’s circle, allowing four hits and the two runs while strik- ing out three. Alysa Fairman had a double and took the loss as the starter for Carlow, allowing six hits and four runs over 3-2/3 innings. In game two, Powell — a senior from Flatwoods, Ky. and the reigning RSC Pitcher of the Week — walked two and tossed a two-hit shutout for her eighth win in 11 decisions. Both of the Celtics’ hits were infield singles — a bunt single by Kelsey Geyer in the third and a pinch-hit single to second by Tristan Voss in the seventh inning. Rio had just four hits of its own against Carlow RIO GRANDE, Ohio — The entire 2018 season has been an offensive struggle for the Point Park University softball team. It was a case of “second verse, same as the first” for the Pioneers on Saturday afternoon against the University of Rio Grande. The RedStorm celebrated Senior Day by limiting their guests to just six hits in a pair of shutout victories — 3-0 and 6-0 — at Rio Softball Park. Rio Grande finished the day at 30-11 overall and 14-2 in River States Conference play. Point Park slipped to 10-18 overall and 7-7 in league play as a result of the sweep. Junior Kelsey Conkey (Minford, OH) tossed a four-hitter in Rio’s game one triumph, striking out six en route to a 15th win in 17 decisions. Senior Mallory Powell (Flatwoods, KY), the reigning RSC Pitcher of the Week and one of four RedStorm players honored in ceremonies prior to the start of the twinbill, tossed her second two-hit shutout in as many days in the nightcap. Rio Grande had just five hits of its own in the first game — four of which went for extra bases. Sophomore Michaela Criner (Bremen, OH) gave the RedStorm the only run it would need in the third inning with a solo home run, her 12th circuit-clout of the year. The RedStorm added two more runs in the fourth on a leadoff double by Conkey, a one-out RBI double by freshman Mary Pica (Minford, OH) and a run-scoring single by junior Carly Skeese (Newark, OH). Conkey finished with two doubles in the winning effort. Maddie Horn had two of Point Park’s four hits, while Katie Tarr started and took the loss for the Pioneers. starter Abby Stroud, two of which came when the RedStorm scored its run in fourth inning. Powell reached on a two-out single to right and scored all the way from first on a subsequent double to leftcenter by Pica. The second game took just an hour and 11 minutes to complete. Rio Grande returns to action on Saturday when it hosts Point Park University for Senior Day. First pitch for the opener is set for 1 p.m. Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director at the University of Rio Grande. In game two, Powell was locked in a scoreless pitcher’s duel with PPU starter Ashley Iagnemma until Rio erupted for six hits and four runs in the fifth inning. Conkey had an RBI single and Powell helped her own cause with a two-run single to highlight the scoring spurt. The RedStorm tacked on two more runs in the sixth thanks to an RBI double by sophomore Lexi Philen (Tallmadge, OH) and a sacrifice fly by Conkey. Freshman Kayla Slutz (Navarre, OH) finished 3-for-3 in the victory. Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director at the University of Rio Grande. INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — LeBron James has been the first-round king for 12 years. On Sunday night, he needed Kyle Korver’s 3-point shooting to put him in position to extend his reign. The two combined for all of Cleveland’s points in a late 10-2 run, helping the Cavaliers to a 104-100 victory over the Indiana Pacers to even the series at 2. James drew boos from the crowd after flipping the ball up the court to run out the clock. “You don’t ever want to go down 3-1 against anybody, no matter if it’s the first round or if you’re fortunate enough to get all the way to the finals,” James said. “It’s just too difficult.” James finished with 32 points, 13 rebounds, seven assists and another crowning achievement — his 100th career playoff game with 30 or more points, second all-time to Michael Jordan. This has been no typical series for James, who started the playoffs with an NBA-record 21 consecutive wins in the first round. He’s already seen the Pacers go wire-towire in Game 1, miss a potential tying 3-pointer in the last 35 seconds of Game 2, rally from a 17-point deficit to win Game 3 and erase a 16-point, first-half deficit to take the lead early in the fourth. This one looked and felt a lot like the three previous games — tough and physical down to a confusing sequence in the final seconds when Lance Stephenson was HELP WANTED DENTAL FRONT OFFICE ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT Private dental office looking for “Dental Front Office Support” member to join our team.

RedStorm blanks Point Park in sweep By Randy Payton OVP SPORTS BRIEFS Please email resumes to theriveroffice1968@gmail.com OH-70044289 whistled for wrestling Jeff Green to the court while hoping for a jump ball. Indiana still led 93-91 with 4:28 to go on Sunday. Then James and Korver reverted to their old ways. Korver’s 3 with 3:48 left made it 94-93, James followed with a layup, Korver knocked down another 3 and James added another layup to give the Cavs a 101-95 lead with 1:52 left. Indiana never recovered. Korver wound up with 18 points and four 3s to give him 200 in his postseason career. And without those two 3s, James knew he might have been staring at a 3-1 deficit at the earliest stage of the playoffs in his career. “He’s one of the alltime leaders in 3-pointers made,” James said. “His four 3s were huge. We needed every last one of them, obviously.” The Pacers, meanwhile, lamented a missed opportunity. Despite having seven players score in double figures, making more baskets, grabbing more offensive rebounds and matching Cleveland’s 12 3s, Indiana missed six of its last eight shots. Domantas Sabonis scored 19 points for Indiana. Myles Turner and Victor Oladipo each had 17, though Oladipo was just 5 of 20 from the field. Only this time, as in Game 2, Indiana couldn’t quite finish. “We just didn’t play the game the right way,” Pacers coach Nate McMillan said. “You get into these games, these emotional games, and you’re so pumped up — sometimes you try do some things yourself. Usually, those things don’t work.” After the Cavs took a 49-33 lead with 6:01 left in the first half, the Pacers used a 10-2 run to get within 60-50 at the half then opened the second half on a 10-2 spurt to make it 62-50. Cleveland extended the lead 76-68 lead with 4:41 left in the third only to watch the Pacers score the last six points of the quarter, tie the score on Lance Stephenson’s 11-footer to open the fourth and then take the lead on Sabonis’ 3-pointer with 10:51 left. From that point, it was an all-out slugfest that included James getting called for a technical foul with 6:12 to play. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
