Vol. 63, No. 58

Middleport moves forward on Rutland operation
Charlene Hoeflich

MIDDLEPORT — Middleport
Village Council gave a third reading and adopted an ordinance
whereby by the village agrees
to enter into an agreement with
the Meigs County Commissioners for administering the Meigs
County Water and Sewer District.
The third reading was approved by a vote of four to two

with Council members Roger
Manley and Penny Burge voting
“no” on the ordinance which, if
approved by the Commissioners, will turn the Rutland water/
sewer system over for operation
to Middleport village. It further
provides that all costs relative to
employees, equipment and maintenance will be assumed by the
Commissioners, and that payment will be made to Middleport
Village for administrative duties.
This, according to Susan Baker,

financial officer, will produce another source of revenue for the
village, which she estimates to
be about $18,000 a year.
Now that the ordinance/agreement has been approved by
Middleport it will go to the Commissioners for approval by their
attorneys and finally a vote of the
Commissioners. Meanwhile, the
Commissioners have taken over
the responsibilities including
water distribution, sewage collection and treatment and main-

tenance, as well as collections
for service and maintenance of
the system. The operation became the responsibility of the the
county when Rutland defaulted
on the loans and the Environmental and Protection Agency
(EPA) and Rural Community
Association Program (RCAP)
became involved.
The Commissioners selected
Middleport Village as the best
choice for operating the system
because of its efficiency in han-

Senator Gentile tours local schools

dling its own water and sewer
system.
Now since Middleport has
passed the ordinance which sets
forth requirements of the takeover and the benefits it brings
to the village of Middleport, the
next move is up to the Commissioners to accept the requirements as set for or not.
During the meeting a report
of the jail operation was given.

RACINE — The Buckeye Hills-Hocking Valley
Regional

District

in partnership with the
Governor’s Office of Appalachia, announced on
Monday that the Village
of Racine will receive a
state Appalachian Development Program grant
for $18,100 for its commercial district waterline
extension project.
The funding will support installation of an
8-inch waterline that will
allow for future village development and growth.
“The Village of Racine coordinated the
grant with assistance
from Buckeye Hills who
will also administer the
grant,” said Buckeye Hills
Development
Director

region’s infrastructure is
a critical role of Buckeye
Hills.”
Racine Mayor Scott Hill
said that the total project
will cost $22,700, with
$18,100 from the grant.
The waterline will complete the loop in the business development area.
The project is to include
420 linear feet of 8-inch
water line, two connections and a fire hydrant.
The State Appalachian
Development Grants are

that will increase job opportunities for residents
in the Appalachian region
as well as improve the

Throughout his career, he officers review compensation
has held numerous positions and disability claims that have
GDTnews@civitasmedia.com

been filed by veterans all over
the state and from other locations, as well.
Over the years, Jeffers has
fought tirelessly to support the
rights of veterans. While holding
a political position can be both
stressful and demanding, Jeffers
said the satisfaction of helping
veterans far outweighed the headaches. Seeing the smile on veterans’ faces or tears in their eyes
when they finally received a letter
from the Veterans Administration
awarding disability or compensation made fighting those battles
worth it to Jeffers.
Jeffers said there are always
sharks swimming in the water,
waiting to attack when one holds
a political position. However, in
the ocean of life, Jeffers found far
more loyal friends and supporters
than he has found adversaries.
A “Veteran still serving”, Jeffers’

everyday life exemplifies his dedication, devotion and hard work in
helping veterans.
Jeffers seeks the support of
the local community in realizing
the importance of having a State
Commander come from Gallia
County. He will hold that office
in the program year July 2013June 2014. This has happened
only one time in the history of
the VFW which has been in existence for over 100 years. That
past State Commander was Ron
Hook who was from the district
but not Gallipolis. Normally, the
State Commander comes from a
highly populated area where there
is a lot of support from the organization and a lot of financial support, as well.
The theme for his year as State
Commander will revolve around
baseball, as that has always held a
special place in Jeffers’ heart. He

is a huge sports enthusiast and
hopes to “manage his team” with
skills he learned through many
leadership positions while serving
in the U.S. Army, as well as things
learned through life’s lessons. He
was a U. S. Army Paratrooper and
an infantry soldier who served in
Viet Nam and completed his 25year career as a Sergeant Major.
He has always excelled at anything he has set his mind to. So
in his year as State Commander,
if there is a “full count” the VFW
Department of Ohio will be able
to “fully count” on him to guide
them through a successful year.
Jeffers has the full support of
his wife Lisa, who is a life member of the VFW Ladies Auxiliary.
In addition to Lisa, Jeffers has
the support of his sons, Jeff, of
Decatur, Georgia; Joe, of Phoenix, Arizona; Dax, of Gallipolis;
and Dusty, of Minford, Ohio.

W.Va. county vows
to continue drug
trade crackdown

WILLIAMSON, W.Va. (AP) — The crackdown on drug
dealers in Mingo County will continue, the head of a task
force says, with the slaying of Sheriff Eugene Crum only
fueling the desire to root out those making it a dangerous
place to live.
“You have awakened the sleeping giant, and we will find
you,” vowed Davie Rockel, Williamson’s police chief and
commander of the Mingo County Drug Task Force. “We
will arrest you, we will convict you and you will go to jail.”
Rockel told media outlets the shooting of Crum last
week was an unthinkable, senseless act, but drug dealers
shouldn’t doubt the county’s resolve: Operation Zero Tolerance will continue as a legacy to the 59-year-old sheriff.
“No stone will go unturned, no tip will be ignored,”
Rockel said, quoting his fallen friend by adding, “If you’re
dealing drugs, we will be knocking on your door.”
Crum had been in office just three months, making
good on a campaign pledge to help rid the southern coalfields of the illegal prescription drug trade blamed for
thousands of addictions and overdoses. He was killed in
the spot where he parked his vehicle for lunch most days,
keeping an eye on a place that had been shut down for
illegally dispensing prescription drugs.
Authorities have charged Tennis Maynard, 37, with
first-degree murder and with attempted murder for allegedly pulling a gun on a deputy who chased him after the
shooting. The deputy shot Maynard, who remained hospitalized in Huntington on Tuesday.
State Police say Maynard is up and moving but still considered in critical condition because of a gunshot wound
to the liver.
Authorities have refused to comment on a possible motive or say whether Maynard has an attorney. Maynard’s
father has said his son was mentally disturbed.

Top Senate Dem sets showdown gun vote on Thursday

Local stocks

Obama’s gun-control drive.
It remains unclear, though,
whether there are enough
votes for final approval of
the legislation.
Obama was calling senators from both parties
Tuesday to push for the
gun bill, according to a
White House official.
Before meeting privately with senators at the
Capitol, the Connecticut
families had breakfast with
Vice President Joe Biden at
his residence at the Naval
Observatory, according to
an administration official.
That official spoke only on
condition of anonymity because the official was not
authorized to speak publicly about the meeting.
Obama’s
gun-control
proposals have hit opposition from the National
Rifle Association and are
struggling in Congress,

nearly four months after
the issue was catapulted
into the national arena by
December’s slaying of 20
first-graders and six educators in Newtown, Conn.
In a letter to Reid on
Monday, 13 conservatives
said they will use procedural tactics to try preventing
the Senate from considering firearms restrictions,
headlined by background
checks for more gun buyers and bans on assault
weapons and high-capacity
ammunition magazines.
Senate Minority Leader
Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.,
said Monday that he would
join the conservatives in
trying to block debate.
Earlier Tuesday, Reid
stood on the Senate floor
before a poster-sized photo
of a white picket fence with
26 slats, each bearing the
name of a Newtown victim.

USDA seeks applications to promote job creation
WASHINGTON — Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced today that applications
are being accepted from qualified non-profit and public organizations (intermediaries) to
provide loans to support rural
businesses and community development groups.
Funding, which is intended to
spark business expansion and
create jobs, will be made available through USDA’s Intermediary Relending Program (IRP).
The United States Department
of Agriculture (USDA) remains
focused on carrying out its mission, despite a time of significant
budget uncertainty. Today’s announcement is one part of the
Department’s efforts to strengthen the rural economy.
“This program is a part of the
Obama Administration’s ongoing effort to leverage private
investments with public funds
to create jobs and expand economic opportunity for rural
entrepreneurs,” Vilsack said.
“Intermediaries serve as a criti-

cal component to boosting local
economies.”
The Intermediary Relending
Program is USDA Rural Development’s primary program for
capitalizing revolving loan funds.
USDA lends money to economic
development
intermediaries
(nonprofits and public bodies)
who in turn re-lend the funds as
commercial loans to rural businesses (ultimate recipients) that
might not otherwise be able to
obtain such financing. The repayment of the ultimate recipients’
loans allows the intermediary to
continue to make more loans to
new recipients, supporting sustainable economic development.
Since President Obama took office, the program has created or
saved an estimated 20,000 jobs.
For example, last year a
$500,000 IRP loan was awarded
to the Alabama Department
of Agriculture &amp; Industries
(ADAI) to establish a revolving
loan fund providing low-interest
loans to ultimate recipients—
businesses and communities—

for energy efficient and energy
saving projects. ADAI needed an
affordable financing program to
assist rural businesses and communities with alternative fuel
production, delivery and energy
savings investments. The first
low-interest loan from ADAI assisted with equipment purchases
for a new, small rural Alabama
business. The business opening
created seven jobs.
Funds are used to assist with
financing business and economic
development activity to create or
retain jobs in disadvantaged and
remote communities. Intermediaries are encouraged to work
with state and regional representatives and in partnership with
other public and private organizations that can provide complimentary resources.
For more information about
the Intermediary Relending Program, and to learn about application deadlines, visit http://www.
rurdev.usda.gov/BCP_irp.html.
For information on how to apply, see page 20883 of the April

8, 2013 Federal Register (http://
www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR2013-04-08/html/2013-08186.
htm). Applications and forms
may be obtained from any Rural
Development State Office.
President Obama’s plan for
rural America has brought
about historic investment and
resulted in stronger rural communities. Under the President’s
leadership, these investments in
housing, community facilities,
businesses and infrastructure
have empowered rural America
to continue leading the way –
strengthening America’s economy, small towns and rural communities. USDA’s investments
in rural communities support
the rural way of life that stands
as the backbone of our American values. President Obama
and Agriculture Secretary Tom
Vilsack are committed to a
smarter use of Federal resources
to foster sustainable economic
prosperity and ensure the government is a strong partner for
businesses, entrepreneurs and

working families in rural communities.
USDA, through its Rural Development mission area, has an
active portfolio of more than
$172 billion in loans and loan
guarantees. These programs are
designed to improve the economic stability of rural communities,
businesses, residents, farmers
and ranchers and improve the
quality of life in rural America.
USDA has made a concerted
effort to deliver results for the
American people, even as USDA
implements sequestration – the
across-the-board budget reductions mandated under terms of
the Budget Control Act. USDA
has already undertaken historic
efforts since 2009 to save more
than $700 million in taxpayer
funds through targeted, common-sense budget reductions.
These reductions have put USDA
in a better position to carry out
its mission, while implementing
sequester budget reductions in a
fair manner that causes as little
disruption as possible.

Student arrested in
Pilot’s texting contributed
college stabbing attack
CYPRESS, Texas (AP)
— A student went on a
building-to-building stabbing attack at a Texas community college Tuesday,
wounding at least 14 people before being subdued
and arrested, authorities
said.
The attack about 11:20
a.m. on the Lone Star Community College System’s
campus in Cypress sent at
least 12 people to area hospitals, including four taken
by helicopter, according to
Cy-Fair Volunteer Fire Department spokesman Robert Rasa. He said several
people refused treatment
at the scene.
Harris County Sheriff
Adrian Garcia said officers
responded to the campus
after receiving a call about
a male “on the loose” stabbing people. He said it was
not immediately clear what
type of weapon was used.
“Some of the details in
the call slip did indicate
that students or faculty
were actively responding
to work to subdue this
individual,” Garcia said,
describing the man as being about 21 years old and
enrolled at the college. “So
we’re proud of those folks,
but we’re glad no one else
is injured any more severely than they are.”
Student Michael Chalfan said he was walking to
class when he saw a group
of police officers running
after the suspect. He said
one of the officers used a
stun gun to help subdue
the man, who Chalfan said
he recognized from a drama class last year.
Chalfan described the
man as “eccentric,” saying
he often wore gloves and
was known to carry stuffed

animals. He said although
the man was teased by fellow students, he remained
friendly.
“I’m surprised because
he didn’t look like he was
hateful to the world,” Chalfan said.
Lone Star officials initially urged people on
campus, about 25 miles
northwest of downtown
Houston, to take shelter and be on alert for a
second suspect. But the
sheriff’s department said
authorities believe just one
person was responsible.
“It was the same suspect going from building
to building,” department
spokesman Thomas Gilliland said.
Michelle Alvarez told
the Houston Chronicle she
saw the attacker running
toward other students and
tried to back out of the
way. She said she didn’t
even feel it as he swiped at
her neck.
“He came running and
swinging at my neck, as I
tried to get out of the way,”
she said.
Garcia said buildings
still were being searched
Tuesday afternoon. Long
lines of vehicles carrying
students and staff streamed
off campus as law enforcement directed traffic away
from the school.
Student Teaundrae Perryman said he was in class
when he received a text
message from a friend
and went outside to see a
young woman being loaded into an ambulance with
what appeared to be stab
wounds to either her neck
or head. He said he didn’t
receive an email alert from
the college until 11:56 a.m.
“I was concerned but

I wasn’t afraid because I
was with a large group of
people,” the 21-year-old
said, later adding, “The police got to the scene very
quickly.”
The four people taken
by helicopter and two
others with moderate injuries were taken to Memorial Hermann Hospital.
Of those six, two patients
remained in critical condition, three have been upgraded to good condition
and one was discharged
Tuesday afternoon, hospital spokeswoman Alex Rodriguez said.
One student said she
learned one of her classmates was stabbed after
leaving the school’s Health
Science Center building.
“I called to check on another classmate who was
still inside the building
and she said the classroom
was on lockdown and she
said one of the classmates
had been stabbed,” said
Margo Shimfarr-Evans told
KHOU-TV. “It happened in
the hallway.”
Courtland
Sedlachek,
18, was in class when his
phone started buzzing
along with the phones
of everyone else in class.
The room was temporarily
locked down, but students
were let out and off campus a short time later, in
what Sedlachek described
as an orderly evacuation.
He described his reaction as a “little bit of nervousness.”
The attack came three
months after a different
Lone Star campus was the
site of a shooting in which
two people were hurt. The
suspected gunman in that
incident is charged with
aggravated assault.

to helicopter crash
WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal
accident investigators said Tuesday
that texting by the pilot of a medical
helicopter contributed to a crash that
killed four people, and they issued a
safety alert cautioning pilots against
use of cellphones and other distracting advices during “safety-critical”
operations on the ground and in
flight.
The five-member National Transportation Safety Board unanimously
agreed that the crash was caused by
a distracted and fatigued pilot who
skipped preflight safety checks that
would have revealed the helicopter
was low on fuel and then, after discovering his situation, decided to
proceed with the fatal last leg of the
flight.
The case “juxtaposes old issues of
pilot decision making with a 21st century twist: distractions from portable
electronic devices,” said National
Transportation Safety Board Chairman Deborah Hersman.
The helicopter crashed into a farm
field on Aug. 26, 2011, near Mosby,
Mo., a little over a mile short of an
airport where the pilot planned to refuel. The pilot, a patient being transported from one hospital to another,
a flight nurse and a flight paramedic
were killed.
The case is the first fatal commercial aircraft accident investigated by
the board in which texting has been
implicated. It underscores the board’s
worries that cellphones and other
distracting devices are a growing factor in incidents across all modes of
transportation — planes, trains, cars,
trucks and ships.
The pilot, James Freudenbert, 34,
of Rapid City, S.D., exchanged 20
text messages, over a span of less
than two hours preceding the helicopter crash, documents made public by
NTSB show. Most of the messaging
was with an off-duty female co-worker with whom he had a “long history”

of “frequent, intensive communications,” and with whom he was planning to have dinner that night, said
Bill Bramble, an NTSB expert on pilot psychology.
Freudenbert missed several opportunities to see that the helicopter was
low on fuel before he began the first
leg of the mission, including apparently failing to conduct a pre-flight
check and to look at the craft’s fuel
gauge, NTSB staff said.
Three of the messages were sent
and five were received while the helicopter was in flight, although not in
the final 11 minutes before it crashed,
according to a timeline.
Freudenbert also exchanged text
messages as he was reporting by radio to a company communications
center that the helicopter was low
on fuel. The helicopter was on the
ground at the time waiting for the patient, who was being transferred from
one hospital to another, and a nurse
and a paramedic to board.
Although the pilot wasn’t texting
at the time of the crash, it’s possible
the messaging took his mind off his
duties and caused him to skip safety
steps he might have otherwise performed, said experts on human performance and cognitive distractions.
People can’t concentrate on two
things at once; they can only shift
their attention rapidly back and forth,
the experts said. But as they do that,
the sharpness of their focus begins to
erode.
“People just have a limited ability
to pay attention,” said David Strayer,
a professor of cognitive and neural
science at the University of Utah. “It’s
one of the characteristics of how we
are wired.”
“If we have two things demanding attention, one will take attention
away from other,” he said. “If it happens while sitting behind a desk, it’s
not that big of a problem. But if you
are sitting behind the wheel of a car
or in the cockpit of an airplane, you
start to get serious compromises in
safety.”

Court says Ohio officers used excessive force
CINCINNATI (AP) — Three
police officers used excessive force
in a deadly encounter with a naked
and unarmed college student and
can be sued by his family, an appeals court panel ruled Tuesday.
The ruling from the three-judge
panel of the 6th U.S. Court of Appeals in Cincinnati clears the way
for a lawsuit filed by the mother
of 19-year-old William Parker Martin, who died after an August 2007
struggle with police in Broadview
Heights. The officers are accused
of tackling, punching and kneeing
Martin, and suffocating him by using their body weight to hold him
down.
The lawsuit, filed in 2008 by
Tanya Martin, accuses the officers
of purposefully trying to hurt her

son even as he struggled to breathe
under their combined weight, and
seeks a minimum of $400,000.
The officers had argued that
they acted properly when Martin
— who had LSD in his system —
resisted their efforts to arrest him,
and that they should be immune
from the lawsuit under an Ohio
law.
The appeals court panel ruled
that Officers Ryan Tieber, Michael
Semanco and Scott Zimmerman
are not immune from the lawsuit
because the Ohio law that offers
immunity to officers in many circumstances does not cover actions
done with “malicious purpose, in
bad faith or in a wanton or reckless manner.”
“The quantum force the officers

used was constitutionally excessive, violating the Fourth Amendment right of an unarmed, minimally threatening and mentally
unstable individual to be free from
gratuitous violence during an arrest,” Tuesday’s ruling said.
The officers’ attorney, Carl Cormany, did not immediately return
a call for comment Tuesday.
Martin, who lived in suburban
Brecksville and was a student at
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Fla.,
was naked when he broke into an
elderly couple’s apartment on Aug.
16, 2007.
Tieber said he was the first officer to encounter Martin, and
that Martin ran toward his patrol
car, asked him for help and then

put his hands behind his back and
asked to be taken to jail, according
to court records.
Tieber said he grabbed Martin’s
hands to handcuff him, but Martin
jogged away.
That’s when Tieber tackled
Martin and laid on him just as Semanco arrived. Semanco dropped
his knee into Martin’s side to keep
him on the ground, fell on top of
both Martin and Tieber, and delivered one or two “compliance body
shots” to Martin’s side with his
knee, according to court records.
When Martin bit Tieber’s knuckle, Tieber hit him in the face with
what he called “hammer punches,”
wrapped his legs around Martin’s
body, and gripped Martin’s chin
with his right arm as Semanco hit

Martin at least five times in his
face, back and ribs, records say.
Zimmerman then arrived and
kneeled on Martin’s calves as the
other officers tried to handcuff
him.
Soon after that, the officers
heard Martin make a gurgling
sound. When they turned him
over, he wasn’t breathing. He was
pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.
Cuyahoga County’s medical
examiner ruled that Martin died
from an acute psychotic episode
unrelated to the officers’ use of
force, but two other forensic pathologists said Martin more likely
died from suffocation and found
injuries on Martin’s neck that were
consistent with fingers.

Since the death of a prisoner in the Meigs County jail, many have been
housed at the Middleport
jail. Due to the numerous
prisoners being housed
the sheriff’s department
asked about some consideration in rates. At
Monday night’s meeting

Council voted to reduce
the rate of $60 a day to
$55 a day for anything
over 350 days a month
of confinement of county
prisoners. The county jail
has been closed since the
prisoner’s death and has
not been approved for reopening.
It was reported during
the meeting that con-

struction on the impound
lot will begin in May. The
delay, according to Mike
Henrickson, building inspector, has been caused
by the contractor’s other
work demands.
The property and liability insurance for the
village was discussed and
Baker noted that there
is a three year term rate

which is payable annually through the Oho Municipal Joint Insurance
Co. pool for $37,170,
the same as the current
rate. She noted that the
company has a premium
change clause contingent
on exposure.
Appearance improvements and additional signage for village hall were

discussed at the meeting.
Bruce Martin of SkateTopia and an associate
met with Council to discuss the possibility for
developing the interior of
the old swimming pool in
Hartinger Park for a skate
park. He presented an
overview on the proposed
construction
involved,
how it would look when

completed, the benefit to
the village, and how funding might be raised to
complete the project which
he estimated at a cost at
$100,000. He was asked
by Mayor Michael Gerlach
to bring a list of possible
grants which the village
might seek for financial
help.

Dropouts: Discouraged
Mood tense on
Americans leave labor force anniversary of riot
Jesse Washington
Paul Wiseman

The Associated Press Writers

WASHINGTON — After a full year of fruitless
job hunting, Natasha Baebler just gave up.
She’d already abandoned
hope of getting work in
her field, counseling the
disabled. But she couldn’t
land anything else, either
— not even a job interview
at a telephone call center.
Until she feels confident enough to send out
resumes again, she’ll get
by on food stamps and disability checks from Social
Security and live with her
parents in St. Louis.
“I’m not proud of it,”
says Baebler, who is in her
mid-30s and is blind. “The
only way I’m able to sustain any semblance of selfpreservation is to rely on
government programs that
I have no desire to be on.”
Baebler’s frustrating experience has become all too
common nearly four years
after the Great Recession
ended: Many Americans
are still so discouraged
that they’ve given up on
the job market.
Older Americans have
retired early. Younger ones
have enrolled in school.
Others have suspended
their job hunt until the
employment
landscape
brightens. Some, like Baebler, are collecting disability checks.
It isn’t supposed to be
this way. After a recession,
an improving economy is
supposed to bring people
back into the job market.
Instead, the number of
Americans in the labor
force — those who have a
job or are looking for one
— fell by nearly half a million people from February
to March, the government
said Friday. And the percentage of working-age
adults in the labor force
— what’s called the participation rate — fell to 63.3
percent last month. It’s the
lowest such figure since
May 1979.

The falling participation
rate tarnished the only apparent good news in the
jobs report the Labor Department released Friday:
The unemployment rate
dropped to a four-year low
of 7.6 percent in March
from 7.7 in February.
People without a job
who stop looking for one
are no longer counted as
unemployed. That’s why
the U.S. unemployment
rate dropped in March despite weak hiring. If the
496,000 who left the labor
force last month had still
been looking for jobs, the
unemployment rate would
have risen to 7.9 percent in
March.
“Unemployment dropped
for all the wrong reasons,”
says Craig Alexander, chief
economist with TD Bank Financial Group. “It dropped
because more workers
stopped looking for jobs.
It signaled less confidence
and optimism that there are
jobs out there.”
The participation rate
peaked at 67.3 percent in
2000, reflecting an influx
of women into the work
force. It’s been falling
steadily ever since.
Part of the drop reflects
the baby boom generation’s
gradual move into retirement. But such demographics aren’t the whole answer.
Even Americans of prime
working age — 25 to 54
years old — are dropping
out of the workforce. Their
participation rate fell to 81.1
percent last month, tied
with November for the lowest since December 1984.
“It’s the lack of job opportunities — the lack
of demand for workers
— that is keeping these
workers from working or
seeking work,” says Heidi
Shierholz, an economist
at the liberal Economic
Policy Institute. The Labor
Department says there are
still more than three unemployed people for every job
opening.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — It’s been two decades this month since the longest deadly
prison riot in U.S. history broke out in
southern Ohio and there’s trepidation in
the air.
A prisons chief in Colorado and a district attorney in Texas and his wife have
been slain.
The ratio of inmates to guards inside
Ohio’s prisons has crept up again after a
dip that followed the 11-day siege at Lucasville’s Southern Ohio Correctional Facility in 1993.
Double-bunking inmates, a trigger in
the uprising that left one corrections officer and nine inmates dead, is back in
use at a prison in Toledo. Serious assaults
requiring outside medical attention have
jumped from an average of three per year
to 16 last year, and gang membership,
while down slightly, stands at 16 percent.
Paul Goldberg, past executive director of the Ohio Civil Service Employees
Association, which represents unionized
corrections officers, said “the red flags
are there” that existed in 1993 but were
ignored.
“It wasn’t until we actually had the
death of (Corrections Officer) Bobby Vallandingham and the riot in Lucasville that
people understood that we’d been serious and what we’d been saying was real,”
Goldberg said. “I fear the same circumstances are emerging today.”
Vallandingham was among 12 staff
members taken hostage on April 11,
1993, when inmates overtook the prison
that sits 10 miles north of the Ohio River.
They were exiting the recreation yard on
an Easter Sunday when it happened. Vallandingham was killed on the fourth day
of the occupation, after his inmate captors
had flown a bed sheet out the windows
threatening to kill a hostage if certain demands weren’t met.
Rioting inmates wanted to have single
cells rather than be doubled up and wanted more classes and visitation. Muslim
prisoners wanted an exemption from a
mandatory tuberculosis test that they said
violated their religion and an end to forced
racial integration.
Historian-lawyers Staughton and Alice Lynd, a husband-and-wife team who
have spent the past 20 years investigating circumstances surrounding the riot,
are marking the anniversary with lectures
around the state focusing on the five inmates sentenced to death for their roles in
the riot.
Media access has never been allowed

Mateen (formerly James Were) and Keith

LaMar. The Associated Press’ request to
speak to them ahead of the Lucasville anniversary was denied.
Staughton Lynd, who has written a
book asserting none of the five is Vallandingham’s killer, said the state has yet to accept its share of the responsibility in the
uprising so that justice can be served and
conditions improved.
The Lynds arranged for LaMar to speak
by phone to about 60 participants at an
April 3 event at Youngstown State University revisiting the riot. LaMar, who was
convicted of having a role in the slaying of
prisoner informants during the riot, discussed being held in solitary confinement
for 17 years, Lynd said.
Ohio prisons director Gary Mohr authored a voluminous report on the causes
of the Lucasville riot as director of thenGov. George Voinovich’s Office of Criminal Justice. He said there’s no question
safety and security have improved since
then.
Mohr can tick off a laundry list of targeted programs, legislative efforts and infrastructure upgrades in the past 20 years —
and even the past two — that are making
prison conditions better and guards safer.
He said all maximum-security inmates
are housed in single cells. Through technology, staff are in better communication and are able to manage inmates with
minimal physical contact that can bring
violence, he said. The state has installed
4,000 new security cameras and assembled special-response teams across the
state trained to handle disturbances.
And the administration plans a bill stepping up sanctions against inmates who
throw bodily fluids at guards, Mohr said.
Christopher Knecht, a former inmate at
Lucasville who served time both during
the riot and some years afterward, said
the two eras can’t compare.
“The conditions now are nothing like
they were,” he said. “The only complaints
now would be issues dealing with guardprisoner relationship, classification, property, food, visits and things of that nature
— typical complaints found at all prisons.”
Yet the anniversary arrives as the national mood within the corrections profession is apprehensive.
Mohr considered slain Colorado prisons director Tom Clements a professional
and personal friend. The two had talked a
day before Clements was shot at his front
door last month.
“Worrying is a sin, but I still worry,”
said Mohr, who’s headed the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction
since January 2011. “I think every director in this country is concerned about the
safety and operations of the staff. We need
to be. Just since I’ve been director, there
have been seven corrections employees
around the country that have lost their
lives in the line of duty.”

Grief, questions after Death Notices
collapse kills two NC kids
Amos

STANLEY, N.C. (AP) — While parents
grieve the death of two children buried under a wall of falling dirt, police are investigating possible charges against the father
who was working in the two-story-deep
hole when it collapsed.
Jordan Arwood, 31, of Stanley, was operating a backhoe Sunday night in the pit
when the walls caved in on the children.
The bodies of the two young cousins,
6-year-old Chloe Jade Arwood and 7-yearold James Levi Caldwell, were dug out
Monday morning.
Arwood was the girl’s father; his parents, Nancy and Ken Caldwell, had adopted the boy. Arwood lived next to his
parents and the pit was on his property,
Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office Detective
Lt. Tim Johnson said.
Johnson said investigators were interviewing family members and neighbors
about the case. When they finished, they
planned to present their findings to the
district attorney’s office.
The detective was philosophical about
whether the father could be punished
criminally.
“You can’t punish anyone worse than
that,” said Johnson about Arwood’s loss.
What’s puzzling is why Arwood was
digging the hole.
Investigators described the pit as 20 feet
by 20 feet with a sloped entrance leading
down to the 24-foot bottom. The children
were at the bottom of the pit retrieving a
child-sized pickaxe when the walls fell in
on them. No permits had been issued for
Arwood to dig on the site.
Johnson said people have speculated
that the pit was everything from a “doomsday bunker” to an underground structure
for “illegal activity,” such as growing marijuana.
Sheriff’s deputies on Monday removed
firearms and a marijuana plant from Arwood’s mobile home. Arwood is a felon
who is not allowed to have guns. He was
convicted in 2003 for possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell.
But it’s still unclear to investigators how
Arwood was planning to use the pit.

Arwood told some neighbors that it was
going to be a bunker to “protect his family.” Others said he told them it was going
to be a basement.
But Johnson said: “There aren’t many
basements that are 20-by-24-by-20,” he
said.
“The hole itself made no sense that way
it was constructed. Nothing was done the
way it would be done legally.”
One neighbor, Bradley Jones, a construction worker, told the Associated
Press said he talked to Arwood about the
hole. Jones said it had so supports to stop
the sides from caving in.
“To me, it was dangerous,” he said.
Dion Burleson, spokesman for the Denver Fire Department which responded
to collapse, said they filled in the pit on
Monday.
“It was a safety hazard,” he said.
He also said everyone involved in the
rescue would go through a debriefing to
deal with their emotions. “A lot of people
were hit hard by this.”
Arwood told the AP in an email that he
would respond to questions “in time.”
“I cannot see through the tears to respond,” he said.
Arwood’s desperate voice is heard on
a 911 recording released by the Lincoln
County communications center on Monday.
“Please hurry … My children are buried
under tons of dirt … They’re buried under
tons of clay … It fell on top of them,” he
said sobbing.
Then Arwood began to pray for the children’s safety.
It seemed like the entire rural community was grieving for the children on
Tuesday. A prayer vigil was held Monday
night at a local church. Another one was
scheduled Tuesday night. Funeral services
were pending.
Chelsea Jones, who babysat the children, saw them a few days ago. They were
happy and running around, she recalled.
“They were full of life. I still can’t believe they’re gone,” she said.

Obama to nominate package
of labor board members
WASHINGTON (AP) — President
Barack Obama is nominating three candidates for full terms on the National Labor
Relations Board, which has been in limbo
since a federal appeals court invalidated
his recess appointments to the agency.
Obama on Tuesday urged the Senate to
move swiftly in confirming the members
— two Republicans and one Democrat —
along with two other Democrats he nominated in February. That would fill all five
seats on the board.
But it is not clear whether Republicans
will go along with the package of nominees. The labor board has been a partisan
lightning rod during Obama’s presidency,
with Republican lawmakers and business groups furious over decisions and
rules they say are aimed at helping labor
unions win more members.
The move comes as House Republicans
prepare to vote this week on a measure
that would effectively shut down the
board until it has permanent members
confirmed by the Senate.
A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court
of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit ruled in
January that Obama violated the Constitution when he bypassed the Senate to
fill vacancies on the board. Since then,
Republicans have claimed the board lacks
any legitimacy to act.
The White House has insisted the appeals court decision is wrong and plans to
appeal it to the Supreme Court. But the
ruling has prompted employers in more
than 100 cases to claim the board lacks
authority to take action against them because two of its members are not there
legitimately. It also has frustrated labor
unions who worry the board can’t crack
down on unfair labor practices.
Obama is renominating board Chairman Mark Pearce, a Democrat, and
nominating two new Republicans to the
board — management-side lawyers Harry
I. Johnson, III and Philip A. Miscimarra.
The president had also nominated
Democrats Sharon Block and Richard
Griffin to full terms on the board in
February. They have been sitting on the
board since January 2012, when Obama
made the recess appoints after Senate Republicans vowed to block Obama’s NLRB

nominees. Republicans complained the
board was issuing too many pro-union
decisions.
The White House hopes that Senate
Republicans will favor the five-member
package nomination of two Republicans
and three Democrats. Both Republican
nominees have passed muster with GOP
leadership.
“I urge the Senate to confirm them
swiftly so that this bipartisan board can
continue its important work on behalf of
the American people,” Obama said in a
statement.
The president claimed that he made
the recess appointments last year while
the Senate was on a break. But the appeals court panel ruled that a recess occurs only during the breaks between formal yearlong sessions of Congress, not
just any informal break. It also ruled that
a vacancy must come into being during a
recess in order to be valid.
The White House says the first-of-itskind ruling runs contrary to more than
150 years of practice and would invalidate
hundreds of recess appointments in Democratic and Republican administrations.
AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka
expressed his support for the five-nominee package, noting it includes Republicans “who have views on labor relations
matters that we do not agree with. But
working people need and deserve a functioning NLRB, and confirmation of a full
package will provide that stability.”
Larry Cohen, president of the Communications Workers of America, urged Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to move
the nominations quickly.
“If the nominations are blocked by the
Republican minority, Majority Leader
Reid must be ready to confront that obstructionism to keep this agency functioning,” Cohen said.
House Republicans are expected to
pass a measure this week that would prevent the NLRB from conducting business
until the Senate confirms new members
constituting a quorum or the U.S. Supreme Court decides the board has the
authority to act. But the measure is not
expected to make any headway in the
Democratic-controlled Senate.

Admiral says US ready
if North Korea strikes
WASHINGTON (AP)
— U.S. defenses could intercept a ballistic missile
launched by North Korea
if it decides to strike, the
top American military
commander in the Pacific said Tuesday, as the
relationship between the
West and the communist
government hit its lowest
ebb since the end of the
Korean War.
Amid
increasingly
combative rhetoric from
Pyongyang, Adm. Samuel
Locklear, commander of
U.S. Pacific Command,
said North Korea’s pursuit
of nuclear weapons and
long-range ballistic missiles represents a clear
threat to the United States
and its allies in the region.
The admiral said Kim
Jong Un, the country’s
young and still relatively
untested new leader, remains unpredictable after
using the past year to consolidate his power.
But Locklear told the
Senate Armed Services
Committee that he was
confident that the U.S.
military can thwart North
Korea if it chooses to act.
He made clear that any
U.S. decision would be
contingent on where the
missile is headed, information that the U.S. could
ascertain fairly quickly.
“Do we have the capability to intercept a missile if
the North Koreans launch
within the next several
days?” Sen. John McCain,
R-Ariz., asked the admiral.
“We do,” Locklear answered.
He said North Korea is
keeping a large percentage
of its combat forces along
the demilitarized zone
with South Korea, a position that allows the North
to threaten U.S. and South
Korean civilian and military personnel.
McCain said the saberrattling of today struck
him as the greatest tension between North Korea, South Korea and the
U.S. since the end of the
Korean War in the early
1950s.
“I would agree that in
my recollection I don’t
know a greater time,” the
58-year-old Locklear said.
Increasingly bellicose
rhetoric has come from
Pyongyang and its leader,
with North Korea urging
foreign companies and
tourists to leave South Korea and warning that the
countries are on the verge
of a nuclear war.
At the White House,
spokesman Jay Carney
brushed off the North’s
declaration that nuclear

war was imminent as
“more unhelpful rhetoric”
and part of a pattern of
combative statements and
behavior that Pyongyang’s
leadership has demonstrated for years. He said
the U.S. was working with
Seoul and Tokyo on the issue.
“It is unhelpful, it is concerning, it is provocative,”
Carney said.
Senate Armed Services
Committee
Chairman
Carl Levin, D-Mich., told
Locklear that the North
Korean
government’s
threats “appear to exceed
its capabilities, and its use
of what capabilities it has
against the U.S. or our allies seems highly unlikely
and would be completely
contrary to the regime’s
primary goal of survival.”
“Nonetheless, its words
and actions are not without consequences,” Levin
said.
The Democrat questioned the Obama administration’s decision to
delay a long-scheduled operational test of an intercontinental ballistic missile amid the North Korea
rhetoric.
Locklear said he agreed
with the decision to delay
the test.
“We have demonstrated
to the people of the region, demonstrated to the
leadership of North Korea,
our ability and willingness
to defend our nation, our
people, our allies and our
forward deployed forces,”
Locklear said, citing other
steps the U.S. military has
taken in recent weeks.
The U.S. has moved
two of the Navy’s missiledefense ships closer to the
Korean peninsula, and a
land-based system is being deployed to the Pacific
territory of Guam. The
U.S. also called attention
to the annual U.S.-South
Korean military exercise
that included a practice
run over South Korea by
B-2 stealth bombers.
Levin mentioned that
President Barack Obama
recently talked to China’s
new president, Xi Jinping,
about the U.S. efforts to
deal with North Korea.
Locklear said he has not
had similar conversations
with his Chinese counterparts.
In an exchange with
Sen. Angus King, I-Maine,
Locklear acknowledged
a hotline connection between Washington and
Beijing similar to what
existed with Moscow during the Cold War, and said
both sides need to move
forward in continuing con-

versations.
Locklear told Levin that
he would explore the possibility of making direct
contact with his military
counterparts in China and
communicate with them
the seriousness of the situation on the Korean peninsula.
Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va.,
insisted that North Korea’s nuclear program
could come to a “grinding
halt” if China pressured
Pyongyang.
Reflecting the uneasy
relationship, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., asked
Locklear if he considers
China a “friend or a foe.”
Locklear said neither.
“I consider (China), at
this point in time, someone we have to develop a
strategic partnership with
to manage competition between two world powers,”
Locklear said.
Locklear said Kim Jong
Un has adopted pages
from the playbook used
by his father, Kim Jong Il,
but his approach differs
in a significant way. Kim
Jong Un’s father, as well
as his grandfather, Kim
Il Sung, made sure they
had “off ramps” that gave
them a way to exit a confrontation, particularly if
the U.S. and its allies were
willing to offer concessions. Kim Jong Un, Locklear said, appears not to
have given himself channels that would help him
ratchet down the tensions.
The admiral described
Kim Jong Un as “an impetuous young leader
(who) continues to focus
on provocation rather than
on his own people.”
The scope of Locklear’s responsibilities as
the top officer at Pacific
Command extend beyond
the Korean peninsula,
and he told the committee that his command is
closely watching the proliferation of submarines
among countries including China and Vietnam.
Locklear said there are an
estimated 300 submarines
being operated around the
world, although he noted
that no country there has
an undersea force as capable as the United States’.
Both Russia and China
are expected soon to deploy new ballistic missile
submarines capable of
threatening the United
States, Locklear said. India is also expanding its
submarine force, and Australia, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam,
and South Korea have
launched, or soon will,
modern submarines.

TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio— It’s not always how you
finish, sometimes it’s how you start that’s important.

TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio— A pitcher’s duel until
the very end.
The Eastern and Southern softball teams didn’t
allowed a run through the first seven innings of
Monday night’s Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division matchup. Lady Eagles’ pitcher Grace Edwards
helped her own cause by driving in Paige Cline in the
bottom of the eighth which gave the Lady Eagles the
1-0 walk-off victory.

back-to-back games coming into play, while Southern
(3-3, 2-2) had won three of its last four.
Edwards was the winning pitcher as she threw
eight shutout innings and gave up five hits and a
walk. Edwards struck out seven batters on the night.
Jordan Huddleston suffered the loss for the Lady
Tornadoes after giving up one unearned run in eight
innings of work. Huddleston gave up four hits and
walked one, while striking out two.
Tori Goble and Kiki Osborne each hit a double to
pace EHS, followed by Cline and Amber Moodispaugh who each singled.

runners, only one of which was left in
scoring position, while Wahama left
five runners on base, three of which
were in scoring position.
Point Pleasant has now won three
straight games, while the loss snaps
the White Falcons three game winning streak.

Ohio play with the setback.
The Lady Buckeyes sent
nine batters to the plate in
the second inning, which
resulted in an early 4-0 edge.
MHS countered with three
runs in the bottom of the
third to cut its deficit down
to a run at 4-3 through three
complete.
Nelsonville-York

sent nine batters to the plate
in the top of the fourth,
which led to a five-run output and a 9-3 lead through

Meigs followed with a run
in its half of the fourth to
close to within 9-4 after four
frames.
The Lady Marauders
made their big charge of the
night in the bottom of the
fifth, as the hosts sent 10
batters to the plate — which
resulted in six runs on five
hits and an error. That resurgence gave MHS a 10-9 edge
through five complete.

Meigs ultimately got out of

The Lady Buckeyes outhit MHS by an 11-9 overall

errors in the setback, compared to three errors by
the Lady Marauders. Haley

pitcher of record, while Kelly took the tough-luck loss

Ellis scored three times for

Kelly led NYHS with

CONCEPTIS SUDOKU
by Dave Green

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday,
April 10, 2013:
This year, you experience a new
beginning in a significant area of your
life. To others, you will seem as if you
have endless energy and creativity,
and they will be right. Take advantage
of this special year; use it well, but do
not step on others’ feet. If you are single, you might choose a relationship in
which someone puts you on a pedestal. Be careful — there is only one way
to go, and that is down. Go for a more
realistic bond. If you are attached,
make sure that you share the limelight
and/or dote on your sweetie, or he or
she might become very uncomfortable
and difficult. TAURUS knows how to
spend his or her money, and maybe
even yours, too!
The Stars Show the Kind of Day
You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive;
3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
HHHH A new beginning becomes
very possible. Express your enthusiasm for a project and for the direction
in which you are heading. Once you
are behind something, it becomes a
reality. Share some of your ideas with
friends and loved ones. Tonight: Find
a reason for celebration.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
HHH You have a lot going on. Take
your time deciphering your feelings,
as they could change rapidly. Rather
than act aggressively or get into a
fight, stop to see what is happening
within yourself. Once you can discuss
this reaction, you will feel much better.
Tonight: Not to be found.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
HHHH A friendship could take a
sudden new twist or turn. You have
worked so hard to get to a certain
point that you hardly have had any
time to relax. Stop and look around.
Your feelings very likely will float to
the surface, so take some time to deal
with them. Tonight: Greet a change
positively.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
HHH Pressure builds. You might be
on the verge of a professional change,
or perhaps you are heading in a new
direction with a relationship where you
look up to the person. Visualize more
of what you want, and express your
desires openly. Tonight: Out till the
wee hours.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
HHHHH Keep reaching out to
someone you care about who is not
easily accessible. You have an opportunity for a new beginning here. You
might want to rethink what has happened and what you want to happen.

With clarity, success is more likely.
Tonight: Let your imagination play out.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
HHHHH Work with an associate
or a dear friend as a duo — you might
feel more empowered that way. This
person often seems to share and act
on the same feelings that you experience. Work on communication in order
to strengthen your bond. Tonight: Chat
over a lengthy dinner.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
HHHH Defer to someone else.
You might feel like you have little
choice right now. Your sense of humor
makes others feel more relaxed, but
sometimes you have to honor your
needs. Others can be touchy. Know
that it might have little to do with you.
Tonight: Choose from many options.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
HHH You might want to have
a long-overdue discussion with an
associate or someone who could be
instrumental in your day-to-day life.
You don’t always have the control you
desire. Count on this person’s understanding; he or she has good advice to
offer. Tonight: Choose a stressbuster.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHHH Answers come forward
once you focus. Be open to brainstorming. Though you might vent
some anger, you also will see the way
around a hassle. Others share opinions more than new ideas, but their
different perspectives still are helpful.
Tonight: Take a long-overdue break.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
HHHH You are open to change
and are willing to let go of a need to
have certain matters go your way. In
any case, a family member might be
on the warpath. To calm down the
situation, you might want to let go of
being right. Make and return important
calls. Tonight: At home.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
HHHHH You speak your mind, and
others stop to listen. You might have
a tone that comes off as angry when
expressing your feelings to someone.
Choose your words with care. Take
responsibility for your side of an issue;
you’ll feel better as a result. Tonight:
Invite friends over.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
HHHH Be aware of what you are
offering. You might be overspending.
Avoid taking a financial risk, no matter
how logical it might seem. Be careful when swallowing your anger, as it
could encourage spending or some
other self-destructive habit. Tonight:
Balance your checkbook first.
