Larry D. Tucker, a member of the Meigs Local Board of Education, has been re-appointed to serve a two-year term on the executive committee. Tucker was appointed to the same position for a term beginning on Jan. 1, 2015. The executive committee serves as the governing body for the 18-county region and meets four times a year. The committee determines policy for the region and plans programs and activities designed to carry out the purposes of the association. Tucker’s new term as the Meigs County representative begins on Jan. 1, 2017. Tucker had previously served the OSBA on the arrangements and hospitality team. The Southeast Region membership is comprised of 16 city districts, five exempted village districts, 48 local districts, nine vocational school districts and six educational services centers with a total of 84 member boards of education as well as nearly 400 board members and over 119,000 students. The Ohio School Boards Association, founded in 1955, is the state association to elected school board members and provides in-service training, workshops, consultations and contract services for financial planning, insurance, utility pooling, contract negotiations and search services for vacant administrator services, as well as lobbying at the state and federal levels for public education. Tuesday, December 6, 2016 s 50¢ Meigs EMS releases statement on hack Staff Report TDSnews@civitasmedia.com POMEROY — Meigs County EMS has released a statement regarding a “ransomware” computer hack it say occurred earlier this fall. According to the statement, while EMS information, including patient information, was accessed, there is no information indicating that that data has been used inappropriately. Services are also being offered to those whose information was accessed by the computer attack. Below is the complete statement from Meigs County EMS: On October 6, 2016, a ransomware attack was detected on the Meigs County EMS server. Ransomware is a type of malicious software used to deny access to information in an effort to secure monetary payment. Hackers that use ransomware are typically interested in securing payment — not stealing data. We engaged a leading forensics company to conduct an investigation and on October 25, 2016, we found evidence that the hackers had gained access to our EMS server and may have acquired data on individuals related to their treatment by Meigs County EMS. Based on the forensic investiga- tion, we are confident that the ransomware has been contained. We did not pay a ransom to regain access to any data. Instead, we restored the necessary data from backups. We did not find any evidence indicating that data was extracted from Meigs County’s EMS database as a result of the ransomware attack. The potentially vulnerable information contained on the EMS database may have included patient names, addresses, treatment information, medical history, insurance information and other medical information. For some individuals, but not all, See HACK | 5 Christmas arrives in Middleport NEWS BRIEFS Pearl Harbor Day ceremony MIDDLEPORT — Feeney-Bennett Post 128, American Legion, Middleport, will commemorate the 75th anniversary of Pearl Harbor at the Middleport Levee at 8 a.m. on Dec. 7. All veterans and the public are invited to attend. Red Cross, Fire Department smoke detector program MIDDLEPORT — Volunteer firefighters and Red Cross volunteers will be going door-to-door in the Middleport area on Saturday, Dec. 10 beginning in mid-morning. The firefighters will offer to install free smoke alarms to residents, and Red Cross volunteers will have information on fire safety and the best plans to evacuate in case of a house fire. This is a free program offered by the American Red Cross and area fire departments. In case of a house fire, residents have only a few moments to escape, and the sounding of a smoke alarm can give people notice and help save lives. Residents not visited on Dec. 10 can call the Red Cross at 740-593-5273 to request the information and smoke alarms. A volunteer will visit as time allows.

TVMA �NEWS Daily Sentinel Tuesday, December 6, 2016 3 North Dakota pipeline protesters vow to stay despite victory The Standing Rock Sioux tribe and its supporters argue that extending the project beneath Lake Oahe would threaten the tribe’s water source and cultural sites. The segment is the last major sticking point for the four-state, $3.8 billion project. “The whole world is watching,” said Miles Allard, a member of the Standing Rock Sioux. “I’m telling all our people to stand up and not to leave until this is over.” Despite the deadline, authorities say they won’t forcibly remove the protesters. The company constructing the pipeline, Dallas-based Energy Transfer Partners, released a statement Sunday night slamming the Army Corps’ decision as politically motivated and alleging that President Barack Obama’s administration was determined to delay the matter until he leaves office. “The White House’s directive today to the Corps for further delay is just the latest in a series of overt and transparent political actions by an administration which has abandoned the rule of law in favor of currying favor with a narrow and extreme political constituency,” the company said. President-elect Donald Trump, a pipeline supporter, will take office in January, although it wasn’t immediately clear what steps his administration would be able to take to reverse the Army Corps’ latest decision or how quickly that could happen. That uncertainty, Allard said, is part of the reason the protesters won’t leave. “We don’t know what Trump is going to do,” Allard said. Assistant Secretary for Civil Works Jo-Ellen Darcy said in a news release that her decision was based on the need to consider alternative routes for the pipeline’s crossing.

Jack Dalrymple calling it a “serious mistake” that “prolongs the dangerous situation” of having several hun- dred protesters who are camped out on federal land during cold, wintry weather. U.S. Rep. Kevin Cramer said it’s a “very chilling signal” for the future of infrastructure in the United States. Attorney General Loretta Lynch said Sunday that the Department of Justice will “continue to monitor the situation” and stands “ready to provide resources to help all those who can play a constructive role in easing tensions.” “The safety of everyone in the area — law enforcement officers, residents and protesters alike — continues to be our foremost concern,” she added. Prosecutor: New AG won’t affect probe of Wal-Mart shooting DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — A Justice Department investigation into a police shooting at a Wal-Mart store that left a man dead won’t be affected when Republican President-elect Donald Trump takes office, southern Ohio’s top federal prosecutor said. U.S. Attorney Benjamin Glassman told the Dayton Daily News (http://bit.ly/2guCMlH ) that Trump’s selection of Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions to be attorney general won’t affect the federal agency’s decision on whether to charge Officer Sean Williams. “For ongoing cases, it really means nothing,” Glassman said. “Individual cases, which are all handled by career prosecutors, really, are never affected.” Officers went to a Beavercreek Wal-Mart on Aug. 5, 2014, after a man called 911 to report, in a recorded call, that someone was walking around waving an apparent rifle and “pointing it at people.” Police said they believed John Crawford III had a real weapon and that Crawford didn’t respond to commands to put it down. Officer Williams fatally shot Crawford, who actually had an air rifle from a store shelf. A Greene County special grand jury cleared Williams a month later. Glassman said Thursday he had no changes to report when asked about the status of the DOJ investigation. He referred to a previous statement in which he said the probe “has taken longer than some may have anticipated.” STOCKS AEP (NYSE) - 59.20 Akzo (NASDAQ) - 20.61 Big Lots (NYSE) - 51.78 Bob Evans (NASDAQ) 46.77 BorgWarner (NYSE) 37.49 Century Alum (NASDAQ) - 9.69 City Holding (NASDAQ) 63.45 Collins (NYSE) - 94.65 DuPont (NYSE) - 72.89 US Bank (NYSE) - 50.36 Gen Electric (NYSE) - 31.11 Harley-Davidson (NYSE) - 59.98 JP Morgan (NYSE) - 83.26 Kroger (NYSE) - 32.93 Ltd Brands (NYSE) - 71.97 Norfolk So (NYSE) 105.96 OVBC (NASDAQ) - 24.15 BBT (NYSE) - 45.53 Peoples (NASDAQ) - 29.55 Pepsico (NYSE) - 100.71 Premier (NASDAQ) - 18.73 Rockwell (NYSE) - 136.22 Rocky Brands (NASDAQ) - 11.15 Royal Dutch Shell - 52.20 Sears Holding (NASDAQ) - 11.84 Wal-Mart (NYSE) - 69.94 Wendy’s (NYSE) - 12.85 WesBanco (NYSE) - 40.29 Worthington (NYSE) 57.49 Daily stock reports are the 4 p.m. ET closing quotes of transactions Dec. 5, 2016, provided by Edward Jones financial advisors Isaac Mills in Gallipolis at (740) 441-9441 and Lesley Marrero in Point Pleasant at (304) 674-0174.

(AP) — Protesters celebrated a major victory in their push to reroute the Dakota Access oil pipeline away from a tribal water source but pledged to remain camped on federal land in North Dakota anyway, despite Monday’s government deadline to leave. Hundreds of people at the Oceti Sakowin, or Seven Council Fires, encampment cheered and chanted “mni wichoni” — “water is life” in Lakota Sioux — after the Army Corps of Engineers refused Sunday to grant the company permission to extend the pipeline beneath a Missouri River reservoir. �E ditorial 4 Tuesday, December 6, 2016 Daily Sentinel THEIR VIEW Loosen table etiquette, digest the peace I didn’t have to ask whether the tiniest fork was placed to the right or the left of the dinner plate when I set the table because in my family, members needed only one fork. It was stabbed into a slice of turkey if we chose to not use our fingers and it punctured our salad when we chose to actually eat it rather than use it to camouflage the cooked cabbage. We weren’t barbarians. We ate on clean Corelle dishes—unless grandma had the gumption to invite the china from the cabinet to join us at the festive table, but that required time—time she seemed to not want to spend. The dusty dishes had to be rinsed and dried and she’d marvel at how dust accumulates inside Michele Z. of a cabinet whose Marcum Contributing doors remain Columnist closed 360 days a year. Sometimes, particularly when extended family joined us, we set out the best the paper plate line had to offer, Chinette with divided sections so people’s gravy wouldn’t run into their macaroni salad. Extra people meant the kids were assigned to the kitchen table where a single rose saluted from a vase rather than to the main dining table where a lavish bouquet adorned the center. When I hit about twelve I didn’t want to sit around the “kid’s” table anymore, and grandma would squeeze an extra chair beside of dad for me. We were “Living high on the hog,” as grandma would say, her glance bumping across the table strewn with as much a variety of foods as the variety of patterns on the serving bowls. The layout looked like an obstacle course one could play on, rushing from one event, or dish, to the next in search of the next yummy mouthful. A platter of ham sat between two pillar candles which one lucky youngster lit. Grandpa was the designated prayer-giver so everyone folded their hands and bowed their heads. “Lord, bless this food and the hands that prepared it. May we always have food in our bellies and peace in our hearts.” “Hay-Men,” one younger cousin would say, and we commenced to feasting. Dishes were passed to whoever had an available hand, not to whoever happened to be sitting to your right. A gravy boat drifted up-stream while a basket of rolls roved down-stream followed by the candied yams. Puttering past me clockwise and counterclockwise were bowls piled high with mashed potatoes and salads heaped with “It was a comfortable chaos— as soothing as the eggnog sliding down my throat. My fingers weren’t dipped in bowls of sparkling water, they were dipped in the ease of the moment—in the peace of accepting things just the way they were.” —Michele Zirkle Marcum veggies no one really wanted to crunch into, but who all must have felt obligated to eat after overdosing on the apple cobbler from the night before. Uncle Bill insisted that goldfish, not reindeer, flew Santa’s sleigh while my sister dug her jellyspotted spoon into the butter dish, and Grandma tossed me a roll from across the table. It was a comfortable chaos—as soothing as the eggnog sliding down my throat. My fingers weren’t dipped in bowls of sparkling water, they were dipped in the ease of the moment—in the peace of accepting things just the way they were. I didn’t need two forks. I didn’t need matching serving bowls or linen napkins. The peace I felt wasn’t served in a pan. It bubbled up from somewhere inside and simmered throughout my whole being. Even then I knew life was an ordered chaos—a casserole into which I’d been tossed. I was both the ingredients and the entire recipe. All I had to do was hold the space for the peace and not get devoured by the rules. Since then I’ve traversed the well-bred tables where fingers are dipped into bowls after eating to remove the sticky and there are more waiters than the number of asparagus spears on my plate, but I didn’t enjoy the food or the company any more than I did that group of clamoring people and casual fare that co-mingled around my grandmother’s handmade placemats. So, I follow my own etiquette handbook, permitting a bit of sauce to dribble onto my chin before catching it with my napkin. I maneuver the food to one side of my mouth before talking and keep my elbows only a few inches to either side of me on the table so my neighbor has room for their elbows too. My digestion begins and ends with the peace of knowing dining rules are just like other behavior manuals—man’s way of creating order out of chaos. I, however, enjoy biting into that jovial disorder. It soothes my famished soul. Michele Zirkle Marcum is a native of Meigs County, author of “Rain No Evil” and host of Life Speaks on AIR radio. THEIR VIEW Time for states to retake control of health care By Darcy Nikol Bryan, Jared Rhoads and Robert Graboyes In January, a new president and Congress will have no choice other than to revisit the harsh political terrain of health care policy. Washington today, after all, is arguing over why, not whether, the Affordable Care Act is in trouble. One can choose to blame Democratic overreach or Republican intransigence, but the facts are clear: Premiums are soaring, patient choices are narrowing, exchanges are hollowing out, co-ops are failing and funds to bail out insurers are growing scarce. In this environment, the states — red and blue alike — have an opportunity to reassert their primacy in health care policy. The ACA battle and other debates that preceded it have left the impression that health care policy occurs only in Washington and revolves solely around health insurance. But the real soul of health care lies in the hands of the states. Governors, legislatures and state agencies have enormous power over the care their residents receive. States largely control the licensing and oversight of health care professionals, the capacity of hospitals to grow and innovate, the structure and taxation of medical businesses, and the letter and enforcement of tort and contract laws. With the advent of digital medicine, states can either enable or obstruct new technologies, such as telemedicine. For all of Washington’s influence over health insurance, state insurance commissioners also play a pivotal role in how and whether their residents obtain coverage and what that coverage looks like. For these reasons, the Mercatus Center at George Mason University is releasing its Healthcare Openness and Access Project. It’s a toolbox of state-by-state measures of the flexibility and discretion that patients and providers have in managing health and health care. The market-oriented research center’s project combines raw data series into nearly 40 indicators of openness and access. The indicators are then combined to produce 10 subindexes with which to rank broad areas of state health care policy. The subindexes, in turn, are averaged to produce the HOAP index, which yields an overall ranking of the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Judging by the HOAP index, the top five states in terms of openness and access are (in descending order): Idaho, Montana, Missouri, Mississippi and Utah. By this index, the five least open and accessible states (again in descending order) are: Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey and Georgia. As authors of the HOAP, we consider these rankings to be meaningful and useful, but we stress in the strongest of terms that they are not definitive and final. These rankings should begin conversations, not end them. The HOAP rankings do not imply, for example, that Georgia is bad and therefore should adopt Idaho’s laws. Rather, policymakers in Georgia might use the HOAP data to spark discussion over whether some of what Idaho does might work well in Georgia. At the same time, policymakers in Idaho might look at New York’s higher score on the public health subindex and ask whether New York can teach Idaho a thing or two. We designed the HOAP so any user can challenge the basic premises of the index, the 10 subindexes, the rankings, and the dozens of indicators and other data series. A user who wishes to place more significance on medical liability laws and less on telemedicine can apply his or her own weights to the data and create customized indexes and rankings. The last thing we the authors wish to do is replicate the experience of the World Health Organization and its rankings of national health care systems. Last produced in 2000, the WHO’s project began with a valuable database of information that quickly degenerated into an ideological bludgeon to shut down conversation worldwide. In contrast, we intend for the HOAP data to be poked, prodded, tweaked, discussed and challenged. Health, after all, is a journey, not a destination.

THEIR VIEW Holiday parties are great, but could use nametags By Sally Friedman Contributing columnist It’s party time. While months like February and July are among the wallflowers of the social season, and March somehow languishes too, December is the calendar’s social Miss Congeniality. So I always brace for what’s coming. As delighted as I am to receive invitations to holiday parties and concerts and special events, I’m also panic-stricken that although I have a closet full of clothes, I still won’t have anything to wear. This seems to be largely a lamentation of the fairer sex, perhaps because we’ve been groomed to think that appearance matters more than it should. In my case, it’s because try as I may, I never seem to own the perfectly right shirt or skirt or dress that will express that I’m right up to date, have lost those five pounds and won’t be decked out in the entirely wrong degree of formality for the occasion. My husband, of course, simply takes three min- utes to slip on his navy blazer and gray trousers, both always fresh from the cleaners and at the ready. It never fails that, just as party season approaches, I will get a killer cold that leaves me with the kind of red nose that is not cutely Rudolph-like, and has left me as pale and wan as a swooning maiden of yore. And yes, in my life, parties — and bad hair days — always coincide. But those are actually minor matters compared with the big one. Holiday parties often bring together people you know you know but can’t quite remember how or from where. They also call for introducing these vaguely familiar folks to others. “What is his or her name?” becomes the panic of the moment. It’s buried there in some out-of-theway brain cells but not accessible after that first glass of white wine. Is it somebody from the gym? Is it the receptionist at the dentist’s office? Or hey, is it a neighbor you occasionally see across the street taking in the mail? As the panic mounts, so does the realization that my husband can’t help because he has the same deer-in-the-headlights look I’m surely wearing by now. I’ve never quite learned how to finesse these awkward moments. The direct approach — simply asking, “How do I know you, and what’s your name?” — somehow doesn’t cut it in this season of goodwill but bad social memory. I have been known to take the path of least resistance by holding up my wine glass and mumbling something about a refill. But I have also, to my shame, become fairly adept at raising a question like “So what have you been up to lately?” that could provide clues. And in my most desperate situations, I use my shameless fib about needing to catch up with our hosts, whose names I do know. The fact that we already have caught up on everything reasonable before doesn’t stop me from planting myself in front of them for a rescue. Presumably they know the names of their guests and can perform that rescue. I have, of course, gotten caught in my social stupidity. Case in point: the time I mixed up the names of the first wife and the third wife of an infamous Romeo when I was positive I had it all straight. An icy correction from No. 3 straightened me out. I have been known to feign a beeline to the ladies’ room when the utter bore who knows my name while I don’t know his is droning on about his last trip to collect some rare fauna in the Amazon. So the advice I have for all holiday hosts, therefore, is simple: Along with your hospitality, the lovely crudites and dips, could you pretty please pass out name tags? Your guests, I assure you, would be eternally grateful. Sally Friedman is a writer in Moorestown, N.J. Readers may send her email at pinegander@aol.com.

The Ironladies’ largest lead stood at 52-17 with 5:42 to play, after back-toback field goals by Emily Brown and Raylene Hammond. However, over the game’s final five minutes and 12 seconds, the Lady Raiders — bolstered by their full-court press that forced several Jackson turnovers — scored the final 21 points to make the final tally much more respectable. In fact, Maggie Campbell’s three-pointer that beat the buzzer gave River Valley its smallest deficit since a 19-6 hole at the 5:25 mark of the second quarter. But the opening three periods — and the first 30 seconds of the final frame — belonged completely to the Ironladies, which got seven field goals and a perfect 10-of10 free throws from the standout point guard Green. She dropped in five first-quarter field goals — for all 10 Jackson points in the first 3:25. Green tacked on another bucket apiece in the middle two stanzas, while making 4-of-4 free throws in each period — prior to her 2-of-2 foul shots to open the fourth quarter. After those two freebies, and with Jackson firmly in command 48-15, Green and fellow guard Amelia Davis came out of the game for good. Davis, on a first-quarter deuce followed by two threes, added eight points — while Emily Brown bagged two treys and 2-of-2 free throws towards 10. Marley Haynes hit field goals for Jackson in the first and third quarters, as Olivia Carroll and Mariah Ridgeway each had field goals in the second. Jessica Steele led the Lady Raiders with a dozen points on six field goals, while Erin Jackson — on five field goals — and Jaden Neal — on three field goals and 2-of2 free throws — each added 10. Campbell chipped in a fourth-quarter two before her buzzer-beating trey, as Cierra Roberts rounded out the scoring by splitting a pair of fourthquarter free throws.

That’s because Gallia Academy amassed 160 team points, and placed at least one wrestler in every weight class except one on Saturday — in easily capturing the annual Fairland Duals Wrestling Tournament. The Blue Devils, in the season opener, dismantled the competition — scoring almost 100 more points than runner-up Huntington (66 points). Gallia Academy, except for the 138-pound weight class, earned at least one place in all of the other 13 divisions. In fact, of the 14 weight classes, the Blue and White won nine individual titles. “For our first event this year, we wrestled really well,” said Gallia Academy coach Todd May. Host Fairland finished with 37 points, tying archrival Chesapeake for third, as Ashland (Ky.) amassed 34 points and Belpre 32. Eastern, the second-year program which placed three wrestlers, earned 21 points — followed by South Point with 14 and Boyd County (Ky.) with 10. South Gallia, a first-year wrestling program, placed a pair of wrestlers and scored eight points. Three Blue Devils placed in the lightweight class of 106 pounds, as Caleb Greenlee was first, Jason Stroud second and Kenton Ramsey third. Kyle Greenlee won the championship at 113 pounds, as Jared Stevens at 126, Morgan Stanley at 145, Kaleb Crisenbery at 152, Boo Pullins at 160, Chris Matthew at 170, Hunter Jacks at 182 and Logan Griffith at 220 also claimed their weight classes. Other Blue Devil runners-up included Corbin Walker at 120, Andrew Mullins at 160 and Logan Rose at 195. Besides Ramsey, there were four other Gallia Academy third-place finishers— Justin Day at 132, Kaden Ehman at 145, Dewey Ferguson at 170 and Hunter Terry at heavyweight. Eastern’s trio of placers was paced by Dillon Aeiker, who was the runner-up at 132. Caden Goff at 160 took third, while Eion Marcinko at 106 finished fourth. Both South Gallia grapplers placed fourth — Troy Watson at 132 pounds and Justin Butler at 152. Huntington won two weight classes (120 and 285), along with one apiece by Belpre (132), Chesapeake (195) and Ashland (138).
