HEAP assistance to continue

By Donald Lambert

elambert@civitasmedia.com

CHESHIRE — Gallia
Meigs Community Action
Agency’s Emergency HEAP
Program began Nov. 3 and
will continue through March
31, said Sandra Edwards,
emergency services director.
Edwards said the Gallia
Meigs C.A.A. will be taking
calls for appointments each
Friday (except holidays) at 8
a.m.
“You may call the Cheshire
office at 367-7341 or 9926629 or walk-in to book an
appointment,” Edwards said.
“However, an appointment
may not extend a scheduled
utility shut-off.”

Emergency HEAP provides
assistance to households that
have had utilities disconnected, face the threat of disconnection, or have 25 percent
or less supply of bulk fuel,
or less than 10-day supply of
wood or coal. The program
allows a one-time payment
per heating season to restore
or retain home heating. The
HEAP may be able provide
up to $175 for AEP and
Columbia Gas, up to $550 for
BREC and Knox, up to $450
for wood and coal and up to
$750 for propane, fuel oil and
kerosene if you are 25 percent or lower.
The income guidelines for
Regular HEAP and Emergency HEAP are the same.

However, Regular HEAP
requires the previous 12
months income while the
past three months income
is acceptable for Emergency
HEAP. The 12-month period
or three-month period for the
test is determined from date
of application making it possible for some with decreased
income during these periods
to qualify later in the program. Examples of these type
situations could occur from
layoff, strike, retirement, disability or death of a spouse or
household member.
Documentation verifying
all household income must
be provided when applying
for HEAP. Also a copy of the
applicant’s recent electric

bill is required. It is also
required that applicants provide a birth certificate for
the primary applicant, social
security cards for all household members and proof of
student ID or report card
if over 18 and living in the
household.
Applicants will also be
asked for proof of home ownership or proof of landlord,
including address and phone
number.
The following income levels by household size should
be used to determine eligibility. These income guidelines
represent the 175 percent
calculation and are revised
annually. Allowable annual
income for a one-person

household is $20,422.50; two
people, $27,527.50; three
people, $34,632.50; four
people, $41,737.50; five people, $48,842.50; six people,
$55,947.50; seven people,
$63,052.50; and eight people,
$70,157.50.
Households with more than
eight members should add an
additional $7,105 per member to the yearly income.
Both Emergency HEAP and
Regular HEAP applications can
be completed at C.A.A offices
in Cheshire and Middleport.
Applications will be taken by
appointment from 8:30-10:30
a.m. and 1-3:30 p.m.

State
accredits
Meigs
Board for
disabilities
Staff report
TDSnews@civitasmedia.com

SYRACUSE — The Meigs
County Board of Developmental
Disabilities has been accredited
by the state of Ohio for the quality
services and supports it provides
to people with disabilities.
An accreditation certificate was
issued to the Board by the Ohio
Department of Developmental
Disabilities on Nov. 5.
A comprehensive review of the
Meigs County Board of Developmental Disabilities was conducted
this year by the Ohio Department
of Developmental Disabilities. The
accreditation review is a rigorous
and thorough process, spanning
approximately six months.
A team of surveyors from
DODD reviewed all areas of County Board operations including
personnel administration, services
and support, and other indicators
of the general efficiency and effectiveness of services.
The results of the review found
that the Meigs County Board
of Developmental Disabilities
achieved substantial compliance
and subsequently obtained a fouryear period of accreditation. County boards are given several months
of advance notice to prepare for
the accreditation review, which
requires many staff hours and a
great deal of coordination between
programs and departments.
For more information, contact
Superintendent Kay Davis at 740992-6681.

Insurance enrollment period opens
CHARLESTON, W.Va.
(AP) — Mina Schultz
says she’s living proof
that young adults need to
think about getting health
insurance.
Two weeks after finishing her college graduate
studies in 2011, Schultz
was diagnosed with bone
cancer. Because she was
under age 26 at the time,
she was able to use her
parents’ insurance plan.
Now 28, Schultz is a
certified application counselor at Monongahela Valley Association of Health

Centers Inc.’s Fairmont
clinic. Since she’s a contractor, she had to find
private health insurance
on her own.
Schultz signed up for
her coverage under the
West Virginia’s health
insurance exchange after
it became available a year
ago. The second round of
open enrollment started
Saturday.
During the initial round
of signups in West Virginia, only 19 percent of the
19,860 new enrollees were
ages 18 to 34, according
to the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services.
West Virginia tied with
Minnesota for the lowest
percentage of signups
involving 18 to 25 year
olds, and tied with Arizona and Vermont for the
lowest percentage of 26to 34-year-olds enrolled.
“I just hope that other
young people can kind of
see that things do happen,” Schultz said. “I
never thought I would get
a cancer diagnosis. You

never know if you’re going
to drop a box on your
foot, either, and break
your toe. Insurance is a
very important part of a
young person’s life.”
The 2010 Affordable
Care Act, which bans
denying coverage based
on pre-existing conditions, “has really benefited
me,” Schultz said. “It’s
affordable for me. It gives
me the same coverage
as anyone else without a
pre-existing condition.
My premium is based
solely on my age and my
income.”
Schultz said her cancer
is in remission. After
her diagnosis, Schultz
endured a year of inpatient chemotherapy
and five surgeries, “which
would have without question bankrupted my family
had I not been insured,”
she said. “I likely would
not have had access to
the same treatment that
I would have had I been
uninsured at that time.
“I’m really thankful
today because I now have

a pre-existing condition
but I have the same access
to health care as anyone
else. I don’t have to pay
more. I’m not considered
uninsurable, which I had
been before the passage of
the Affordable Care Act.”
Here are some other
things to know about the
second round of signups
under the federal health
exchange in West Virginia:
WHERE TO SIGN UP:
The enrollment period
runs through Feb. 15. In
addition to sign-up events
held across the state
Saturday, assistance is
available at health centers
statewide.
WHO OFFERS IT:
Highmark Blue Cross Blue
Shield West Virginia is
the only private insurer
participating in the state

Virginia marketplace for

Papers signed by famous
’30s FBI man found in Ohio
AKRON, Ohio (AP) — Recordkeepers examining long-forgotten documents in a courthouse have found some
unremarkable depositions with a noteworthy signature: Melvin Purvis Jr.,
the FBI man famous for tracking down
John Dillinger and other gangsters in
the 1930s.
Workers found the documents in the
Summit County courthouse attic, the
Akron Beacon Journal reported. The
depositions, signed in 1927, involved a
lawsuit over potatoes between an Akron
company and one in South Carolina,
where Purvis practiced law before joining the FBI.
FBI historian John Fox said it’s an
interesting discovery because the agency typically doesn’t have many records
on agents from that era prior to their
FBI work.
“He’s certainly one of those interesting characters in our past,” Fox said.
The signatures were found by two

county records retention workers, and
they might have gone unnoticed if not
for some motherly advice.
Worker Karen Kearns said her mother
taught her never to get rid of stuff without going through it, and that’s why she
urged colleague Teresa Corall to check
out what was in the old boxes.
Corall said she recognized Purvis’
name from the 1973 movie “Dillinger,”
which starred Warren Oates as Dillinger
and Ben Johnson as Purvis.
“I’ve never found anybody famous like
this,” she said.
Purvis died in 1960, and some documents with his signature have been put
up for sale for thousands of dollars. The
ones found in Summit County, however,
seem likely to stay there.
Corall hopes to frame them among
other interesting finds displayed at the
records retention center in the basement of a county building in Cuyahoga
Falls.

Clinic does 2nd face transplant
By Marilynn Marchione
Associated Press

CLEVELAND — Cleveland Clinic surgeons have replaced nearly the entire face
of a middle-aged man severely disfigured
in a car accident, the hospital announced
Tuesday.
The operation in late September was the
second face transplant by the Ohio hospital.
More than two dozen face transplants have
been done around the world, starting in 2005
with a French woman mauled by her dog.
The hospital said the recipient wants to
remain anonymous. In a statement released
by the hospital Tuesday, the man said he is
“grateful beyond words to the donor and his
family for their amazing gift.”
The patient became a candidate for a face
transplant after many tries to reconstruct
his face failed to improve his quality of life,
the hospital said in a statement. The man
had trouble breathing and speaking, and the
transplant offered the chance to save the limited sight in his sole remaining eye.
Doctors transplanted about two-thirds of
the scalp, the forehead, upper and lower eyelids, eye sockets, nose, upper cheeks, upper
jaw, upper teeth, salivary glands and nerves,
muscles and skin.
The patient is recovering well, breathing
without a tube and is expected to be able
to eat soon, the hospital said. He will need
medicines for the rest of his life to prevent
rejection of the new face.
The Cleveland Clinic did the nation’s first
face transplant, in December 2008, led by Dr.
Maria Siemionow. She is now at the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Medicine
and consulted with the Cleveland Clinic on
the most recent face transplant, and co-led
the operation with Dr. Frank Papay, chairman of the Dermatology and Plastic Surgery
Institute at the clinic.
The U.S. Department of Defense is pro-

fairer and with more dignity than he ever treated
the miners he employed.
And, frankly, it’s more
than he deserves.”
Throughout the investigation, Blankenship never
wavered in his defiance.
Asked by ABC News in
April if he thought he’d
be indicted, Blankenship said, “No,” with a
chuckle. Did he ever cut
corners on safety? “Never
did.”
The indictment paints
the exact opposite picture. He threatened one
manager’s livelihood for
not trying to cut more
costs, it says.
“You have a kid to feed.
Do your job,” Blankenship said in a note to the
manager, according to the
indictment.
On Blankenship’s website, he labels himself an

viding money for these surgeries in hopes
of helping soldiers disfigured in battle.
Recipients have included Charla Nash, a
Connecticut woman who was mauled by a
chimpanzee. Her transplant was one of five
done at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in
Boston; the University of Maryland Medical
Center has also done one.
The University of Pittsburgh, the University of California, Los Angeles, and other
medical centers also plan to offer face or
hand transplants under the military program.
So far, only two face transplant-related
deaths have been reported. One was a Chinese man who reportedly was not given or
did not take medicines to prevent his body
from rejecting his new face. The other was
in Paris, a man who received a face and a
double hand transplant. He suffered a heart
attack during surgery for a complication.

Dr. Bataille received his Doctor of Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh School
of Medicine in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He completed an internship in Internal
Medicine at The Christ Hospital in Cincinnati, Ohio, and completed his Residency in
Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center,
Presbyterian Hospital in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Dr. Bataille also completed Interventional Pain Management Fellowship with
Regional Anesthesia Training at the University of Cincinnati in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Dr. Bataille is Board Certified by the American Board of Physical Medicine and
Rehabilitation, and is seeing patients at Holzer Gallipolis, located at 100 Jackson
Pike, Gallipolis, OH.

THEIR VIEW

The Obamacare
fraud confirmed
In political philosophy, they call it “The Noble
Lie”: the idea that, sometimes — for the public’s
own good — a nation’s leaders must engage in
outright deception.
If that’s a concept that sounds ripe for abuse,
then your instincts are sound. In a nation built, as
ours is, around the importance of the consent of
the governed, the noble lie is a nonstarter. There’s
a word for getting people to consent to a conscious misrepresentation of the truth. It’s called
“fraud.”
Based on recently unearthed remarks by Jonathan Gruber, the MIT economist who was one of
the main architects of Obamacare, that sounds like
as good a description as any for how the Obama
administration foisted health care reform on the
American people.
In recently unearthed footage of a public talk by
Mr. Gruber, the economist admits that the administration intentionally deceived the American
people about the fact that Obamacare’s individual
mandate was actually a tax and purposefully
obscured the fact that the program was designed
as a wealth transfer from healthy Americans to
sick ones.
“Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage,” Mr. Gruber noted, adding, “(C)all it the
stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but
basically that was really, really critical for the thing
to pass.”
Mr. Gruber’s contempt for the public doesn’t
seem to have been an isolated incident. Another
video has already been released in which Mr.
Gruber cops to the fact that taxing insurance companies for so-called “Cadillac plans” (the informal
term for expensive, all-inclusive health coverage)
was simply a back door to taxing the insured customers (because the insurance companies would
pass on the extra costs). That plan worked, Mr.
Gruber noted, “because the American people are
too stupid to understand the difference.”
It’s good to know what our betters really think
of us.
Mr. Gruber, is, of course, correct to note that a
lack of public understanding helped Obamacare’s
political fortunes. He is wrong, however, to attribute it to voter stupidity. When the White House
was intentionally misleading the American people
about the content of the law — and when Congress drafted a bill too large to be comprehended
by anyone — there was no way for the public to
develop an informed opinion about the program.
If the voters erred, it was only insofar as they
trusted the people they elected to office.
Abraham Lincoln, one of Barack Obama’s political heroes, once noted that, “Public sentiment is
everything. With (it), nothing can fail; without it,
nothing can succeed.” Mr. Obama long ago lost
public sentiment on health care reform. That damage will only be compounded by the revelation
that he never sought it in good faith to begin with.

So Gruber deserves to be listened to, even if he ultimately got

two tunnels under Condor

and large enough to drive a

According to Mowery,
Morgan was a famous

RIO GRANDE, Ohio — Senior guard
Brianna Thomas narrowly missed a
triple-double as the University of Rio
Grande women’s basketball team rolled
to a 92-57 win over Ohio Christian University in the championship game of the
Bevo Francis Invitational Tournament,
Saturday afternoon, at the Newt Oliver

11 straight points to take a 25-13 advantage following a Thomas three-pointer
with 7:20 left in the first half.
The Trailblazers got no closer than
nine points the rest of the way as the
RedStorm opened up a 17-point halftime lead and continued to pull away in
the second half.

Rio’s biggest lead of 37 points, 92-55,
came inside the game’s final half-minute.
The RedStorm shot 41.5 percent for
the game (34-for-82) and outrebounded
OCU, 65-35, pulling down 27 offensive
rebounds.
Ohio Christian shot just 29 percent
from the field (19-for-65) and committed 16 turnovers.

Rio men trip Trojans, claim crown
By Randy Payton

For Ohio Valley Publishing

RIO GRANDE, Ohio —
After opening the season
with four lopsided victories, the University of Rio
Grande men’s basketball
team finally found itself
tested.
The RedStorm passed
with flying colors.
Head coach Ken
French’s team shot a blistering 81 percent from the
field in the second half,
rallying from a one-point
halftime deficit to defeat
Taylor University, 89-80,
in the championship game
of the Bevo Francis Invitational Tournament, Saturday night, at the Newt
Oliver Arena.
Rio Grande connected
on its first 11 shots from
the floor in the second
half and finished 17-for-21
after the break, improving
to 5-0 on the season.
Taylor, which defeated

Rio in the championship
game of its own tournament last season, slipped
to 3-2 with the loss.
A first half that included
four ties and seven lead
changes ended with the
Trojans holding a 36-35
advantage, but the RedStorm got a three-pointer
from junior guard D.D.
Joiner (Columbus, OH)
just under a minute into
the second stanza and
never trailed again.
Rio’s red-hot shooting actually produced a
14-point lead with just
over 12 minutes left to
play, but a 16-4 Taylor run
over the next six minutes
pulled the Trojans to
within 67-65 following a
bucket by Tim Fleming
with 6:36 remaining.
Taylor, a member of
the NAIA Division II
Crossroads League, got no
closer the rest of the way,
though.
Rio Grande actually

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The University of Rio
Grande men’s soccer team has landed its fifth consecutive No. 1 ranking in the latest NAIA Top 25
Coaches’ Poll.
The RedStorm received 19 of 21 first-place votes
and 590 points in the balloting of a panel of head
coaches representing each of the conferences, independents and unaffiliated groups in the poll released Sunday following the conclusion of regular season play.
Head coach Scott Morrissey’s club captured the
Kentucky Intercollegiate Athletic Conference tournament championship with wins over Talladega (AL)
College in the semifinal round and over then-No. 20
Point Park in Saturday’s title game.
Rio Grande (15-1-2), which is making its 86th
straight appearance in the poll and enjoying its 46th
all-time No. 1 ranking, will open play in the NAIA
National Championship Tournament on Saturday.
The opponent, as well as game time and site, will be
announced on Monday afternoon.
Rio, which has won its last 10 matches - five by
shutout - will be making its 14th straight NAIA
National Championship Tournament appearance.
The only undefeated team in the NAIA, Texas at
Brownsville moved up to No. 2 with 571 total points
and the remaining two first-place nods. The Ocelots,
after winning the Red River Athletic Conference
Tournament on Saturday, now stand 20-0-0. Texas at
Brownsville will appear in its first National Championship Opening Round since 2011.
No. 3 Lindsey Wilson slid up one position with 577
total points. The Blue Raiders earned an automatic
berth to the championship with a 2-1 triumph over St.
Catharine (Ky.) in the Mid-South Conference championship on Friday.
With 529 points, No. 4 Indiana Wesleyan improves
one spot and boasts its highest ranking in program
history. The Wildcats (18-1-0) own the NAIA’s second-longest active win streak at 17-straight matches –
the last loss occurred on Aug. 29 against LindenwoodBelleville (Ill.), 2-1.
After a 3-3 tie in the semifinals of the Association

No. 16 Lindenwood-Belleville pushed up five spots,
which is a poll-best jump. Conversely, No. 24 Kansas
Wesleyan suffered an eight-position fall, which is the
most dramatic slide down.
Newcomers this week included No. 15 Bethel
(Tenn.), No. 22 McPherson (Kan.) and No. 25 St.
Andrews (N.C.).
Both McPherson and St. Andrews claim their firstever national ranking in history, dating back to 1999.
The Bulldogs, who are 10-0-2 in their last 12 matches,
punched their ticket to the championship for the first
time since 2008 after winning the Kansas Collegiate
Athletic Conference tournament title on Saturday. In
its third season of existence, St. Andrews is 16-1-1 on
the year and won the Appalachian Athletic Conference tournament Saturday with a 2-0 victory over
then-No. 22 Reinhardt (Ga.).
Bethel last held a Top 25 ranking in the 2014 Preseason Top 25 (Aug. 19).
Reinhardt, Great Falls (Mont.) (No. 24) and Cal
State San Marcos (No. 25) all dropped out of the Top
25.
Sixteen of the 21 conferences, A.I.I. and unaffiliated
groups were represented this week. The Southern
States Athletic Conference leads all conferences with
three representatives in the Top 25: No. 10 Mobile
(Ala.), Bethel and No. 18 Auburn Montgomery (Ala.).
