That’s why this February, the American Red Cross and the American Cancer Society have teamed up to encourage people across the country to Give Blood to Give Time, ensuring loved ones have the strength and support to battle cancer. According to the American Cancer Society, 1 in 3 people in the U.S. will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. An estimated 71,850 new cases of cancer will be diagnosed in Ohio this year; 71,850 in Ohio; 26,500 in Kentucky; and 12,380 in West Virginia. Many of these people will likely have a need for blood. “A loved one’s cancer diagnosis often makes families and friends feel helpless. That’s why the Give Blood to Give Time partnership with the American Cancer Society is so important,” said Dr. Pampee Young, chief medical ofﬁcer, American Red Cross. “When someone donates blood or platelets or makes a ﬁnancial gift, they are helping to give patients and their families time, resources and the hope they need to ﬁght back.” To schedule a blood or platelet donation appointment or make a ﬁnancial gift, visit GiveBloodToGiveTime.org. Some types of chemotherapy can damage bone marrow, reducing red blood cell and platelet production. Other times, the cancer itself or surgical procedures cause the problem. Blood products are often needed. In fact, ﬁve units of blood are needed every minute to help someone going through cancer treatment. Yet only 3% of people in the United States give blood. More people are needed to donate regularly to help meet the need. “The need for blood in cancer treatments is an important and untold story,” said Gary Reedy, chief executive ofﬁcer of the American Cancer Society. “The American Cancer Society is excited to be working with the Red Cross on Give Blood to Give Time. Through this partnership, we want people to know there are multiple ways they can help and make a meaningful difference in the lives of patients and their families.” Individuals can honor their loved ones by making a blood donation appointment or ﬁnancial contribution at GiveBloodToGiveTime.org.

AIM Media Midwest Operating, LLC COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The latest request for mercy from a death row inmate in Ohio comes as executions have ground to a halt and the future of capital punishment in the state is being questioned by an unlikely lawmaker — the conservative Republican House speaker. The Ohio Parole Board planned a clemency hearing Tuesday for condemned killer Gregory Lott, who is asking to be spared from the death sentence he received for killing John McGrath in East Cleveland. Records show Lott broke into McGrath’s home on July 13, 1986, doused him with ﬂammable lamp oil, set him on ﬁre, ransacked his home and then stole McGrath’s car. The victim died 10 days after the attack. Lott, 58, is scheduled for execution on May 27, 2021. Following Tuesday’s hearing, the parole board will issue its recommendation to Gov. Mike DeWine, who has the ﬁnal say. “By commuting Gregory Lott’s death sentence, Governor DeWine would be strengthening Ohio’s criminal justice system in fundamental ways,” Lott’s attorneys argued in a Jan. 28 petition to the parole board. Even if Lott loses his bid for mercy, it’s uncertain he would ever face execution. Though Ohio had the country’s second busiest death chamber after Texas as recently as the mid2000s, the state can no longer ﬁnd lethal drugs for even a single execution and has repeatedly delayed executions as a result. Lott alone has received two reprieves in the last year, including one last week. Ohio’s last execution was carried out in July 2018. Nationally, fewer than 30 people were executed last year and under 50 new death sentences were imposed for the ﬁfth straight year, part of a continuing decline in capital punishment. DeWine has acknowledged executions are at a standstill in Ohio because of the drug issue. The governor has repeatedly said he is concerned that drug makers — which oppose the use of their drugs in executions — could pull pharmaceuticals from state hospitals to punish Ohio if it did secure their drugs and use them for lethal injection. Meanwhile, Republican House Speaker Larry Householder says his GOP caucus is starting to talk about the dilemma of having an expensive law that can’t be enforced because of the lack of drugs. It’s a striking stance for Householder, who trumpeted his conservative credentials in a 2018 commercial in which, dressed in hunter’s garb, he described himself as a “pro-gun, pro-life Christian conservative,” and then shot up a TV airing an anti-Householder ad. “So, I look at it from purely from a ﬁscal conservative standpoint and say maybe it’s time that we take a look at putting people away for life in prison with no parole,” Householder said Feb. 4 at a annual legislative forum sponsored by The Associated Press. Householder’s Senate counterpart, GOP President Larry Obhof, is skeptical, saying he believes capital punishment should be an option for the most heinous crimes. DeWine and Householder’s positions show how much the politics surrounding the death penalty have changed in two decades, to the point it’s no longer a campaign liability to express opposition, said Doug Berman, an Ohio State University law professor and death penalty expert. “Now Republicans with different sets of conservative credentials feel comfortable at the very least raising questions and arguably being kind of central to blocking death sentences from being carried out,” Berman said. Courts have taken different positions on Ohio’s defunct threedrug execution method, but as recently as December, the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati reafﬁrmed its conclusion that Ohio’s method didn’t pose an unconstitutional risk of severe pain and suffering. Among the arguments from Lott’s attorneys in favor of clemency are that Lott is intellectually disabled and that family members of his victim — including McGrath’s surviving daughter and grandchildren — support mercy. Lott’s attorneys also argue prosecutors wrongly told jurors that Lott entered the apartment intending to kill McGrath, which made the case eligible for the death penalty. Finally, they say that a long-criticized part of Ohio’s death penalty law was used against Lott, namely the “felony murder” charge which transforms murder charges into capital punishment cases whenever a crime is committed during a burglary, robbery, kidnapping or other crime. A 2014 Ohio Supreme Court task force report called for the end of such charges since they result “in capital charges being brought in cases that are not ‘the worst of the worst.’” The Cuyahoga County Prosecutor’s Ofﬁce says Lott has never fully acknowledged his guilt or accepted responsibility, and notes the crime was one in a long string of burglaries and assaults in which Lott targeted the elderly. Prosecutors also say McGrath’s two closest surviving friends both want Lott executed. “Lott has not offered this Board any reason that would justify the extraordinary grant of clemency by the Governor,” Christopher Schroeder, an assistant Cuyahoga County prosecutor, said in a Feb. 5 ﬁling with the board.

IN BRIEF 2,400 fetuses to be buried him in moving the remains to his home in Crete, Illinois, about a mile from the Indiana state line. CHICAGO (AP) — In what’s sure to be a politically charged ceremony, more than 2,400 fetuses found last year at the suburban Chicago home of one of the Midwest’s most proliﬁc abortion doctors will be buried Wednesday in Indiana, a state with some of the nation’s toughest anti-abortion laws. Indiana’s top law enforcement ofﬁcial will preside over the mass burial in South Bend. The service comes ﬁve months after relatives sorting through Dr. Ulrich Klopfer’s belongings after his Sept. 3 death came across 2,246 sets of preserved fetal remains stacked ﬂoor to ceiling in his garage. Later, 165 more were found in a trunk of a car at a business where Klopfer kept several vehicles. Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill will speak at the burial and later offer an update on the investigation into Klopfer and whether anyone assisted Veto of sports betting stands PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Maine lawmakers did not muster enough support Tuesday to override a veto of a sports betting proposal, and the governor urged lawmakers to “slow down” and see how it plays out in other states. The 85-57 vote in the Maine House fell short of a two-thirds majority needed to become law over the objection of Democratic Gov. Janet Mills, who vetoed the bill last month. “The House of Representatives made the right decision. It is in the best interest of our state to slow down, to understand the evolving experiences of other states, and to use those experiences to better inform our approach to this issue,” the governor said in a statement. �NEWS/WEATHER Daily Sentinel Blood China mostly closed down as deaths pass 1,000 tell them there is nothing scary about saving a life – a life like mine.” By Joe McDonald From page 1 Upcoming blood donation opportunities Who blood donations help In April 2015, StepheGallia County —Feb. nie Perry was diagnosed 12, 11 a.m.-4 p.m., Holzer with Hodgkin lymphoma Gallipolis, 100 Jackson exactly 10 days before Pike, Gallipolis; Feb. 20, her commencement 12:30-6 p.m., Saint Peters ceremony from graduate Episcopal Church, 541 school.

So I got THEIR VIEW And the award goes to … Surprisingly, this will be the second week in a row that I have started typing my column while watching television. Last week, everyone was anticipating the Super Bowl and the ﬂood of mega-million-dollar commercials that would surround the on-ﬁeld action. This week, everyone seems to be focusing their attention on Hollywood and the Academy Awards. Like it or not, for nearly a century this country has been obsessed with movies. It started well over 120 years ago when it was discovered that a series of still pictures of a horse running could be displayed in such a way that the viewer could see the horse run. That type of imagery had never been seen before. Year after year, inventors and scientists improved the technology. In 1920, ﬁlm production companies started adding music and sound to the ﬁlms they produced. Hollywood was becoming the epicenter of this new form of entertainment. In 1927, Warner Brothers and Vitaphone produced “The Jazz Singer.” It was the ﬁrst full-length motion picture with synchronized sound. When Al Jolson sang, it looked like the sound was ﬂowing from his mouth. This phenomenal breakthrough brought an end to silent movies and ushered in the era of talkies, followed by talkies in color. The ﬁrst Academy Award presentations were held in 1929. The award for best picture went to “Wings”, a movie set in World War I about biplane pilots and their harrowing adventures. In recent years, One of the nomiwe have had sevnees for best piceral shows that ture this year was did not feature a also set in World host. Usually the War I.

I would rather they would humbly or humorously accept their professional award, thank the people who made it possible and move on, but there will always be people who want to take the opportunity to express their personal views to a few million people. OK. Freedom of speech. Movies are one of those things that routinely unite or divide people – you love them or hate them. There are classics that I love to watch: “The Bridge on the River Kwai”, “Mutiny on the Bounty”, “Ben-Hur”, “Lawrence of Arabia”, “The Sting”, “The Godfather”, “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest”, “Rocky”, “Gandhi”, “Braveheart” and more. This year, nominees include actors who portrayed characters ranging from the Pope to a psychotic criminal. The diversity of entertainment that we see in movies helps make the movie-going experience fun and educational. The awards show often encourages new generations of actors and ﬁlm makers. That is a good thing. For the young actors and crewmembers who work in our local high school theatre productions and for the cast and crew at Wilmington College, the Academy Awards are there to tell you … work at your craft. Never give up. Randy Riley is former Mayor of Wilmington, Ohio and former Clinton County Commissioner. This column shared through the AIM Media Midwest group of newspapers.

LOGAN, Ohio — The third time wasn’t a charm. After earning a sweep during the regular season, the Meigs girls basketball team didn’t have any answers for visiting Athens down the stretch Monday night following a 54-47 setback in a Division II sectional semiﬁnal contest held at Jim Myers Gymnasium inside of Logan High School. The 16th seeded Lady Marauders (6-17) were in for a battle from the start as the Lady Bulldogs (4-19) — a 17 seed — kept pace through eight minutes of play after ending up deadlocked at 6-all. The Maroon and Gold, how- ever, started to ﬁnd their offensive rhythm early in the second period as the hosts used a quick 7-1 surge to secure their largest lead of the night at 13-7 with just under ﬁve minutes left in the half. Laura Manderick countered with consecutive trifectas while sparking a 10-1 surge over the next four minutes, giving AHS its largest ﬁrst half lead at 17-14 with 1:48 left. MHS quickly countered with consecutive baskets from Rylee Lisle, then a Mallory Hawley bucket capped a 6-0 spurt that led to a 20-17 edge with 55 seconds remaining. Bailey Davis added a basket for Athens just 14 seconds later, cutting the deﬁcit down to a single point entering the break. Both teams traded leads midway through the third quarter before ultimately ending up knotted at 26-all with 3:41 remaining. Harper Bennett capped a 12-2 run with a basket, giving the Green and Gold a 38-28 advantage with just 50 seconds remaining. Hawley tacked on a basket with nine second left for a 38-30 contest entering the ﬁnale. Meigs went scoreless for over three minutes down the stretch, and Keri Federspiel scored ﬁve points during a 7-0 run that gave the Lady Bulldogs their largest lead of the See ATHENS | 8 Lady Tornadoes breeze past East, 47-21 By Alex Hawley ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com WELLSTON, Ohio — Starting the postseason in style. The 14th-seeded Southern girls basketball team claimed its second-largest victory of the year in its tournament opener, defeating 19th-seeded Sciotoville East 47-21 in the Division IV sectional semiﬁnal on Monday at Wellston High School. Southern (5-18) — winning in the postseason for the ﬁrst time since 2017 — was up by double digits eight minutes into play, starting the night with a 13-to-3 run. The Lady Tornado defense held East to a single ﬁeld goal in each of the ﬁrst two periods, and the Purple and Gold took a 23-5 lead into halftime after a 10-to-2 second quarter. SHS added two points to its lead in the third period, outscoring the Lady Tartans 10-to-8 to make the margin 33-13 headed into the fourth. Southern capped off its 47-21 win with a 14-to-8 spurt, hitting seven ﬁeld goals in the ﬁnale. For the game, SHS made 10-of-14 (71.4 percent) free throws, to go with 17 two-pointers and one triple.
