As National Public
Health Week concludes
today, we will take a look
at the importance of considering the social determinants of health. Public
health research shows
that addressing the social
determinants of health
can have a major impact
on improving population health and decreasing health disparities,
which are inequities that
occur in the provision
of healthcare and access
to healthcare across different racial, ethnic and
socioeconomic groups.
Social Determinants of
Health are a state of complete physical, mental,
and social well-being and
not merely the absence
of disease or inﬁrmity.
Contributing factors that
describe social determinants of health include:
income and social status;
social support networks;
education and literacy;
social environments;
physical environments;
health services; personal
health practices and coping skills; healthy child
development; biology and
genetic endowment; culture; gender.
Meigs County Health
Department (MCHD) is
uniquely positioned to
understand the inequities in its jurisdiction and
bring people together
to shape more equitable
communities throughout
the County.

THEIR VIEW

The new
‘Roseanne’ show
still represents
the working class
It was left to “philosopher” Rob Lowe to summarize why the ﬁrst episodes of the reboot of
“Roseanne” were such a massive ratings success.
Lowe tweeted, “The secret to Roseanne’s massive ratings is that it celebrates people with huge
political differences who are able to laugh and love
together as they passionately disagree.”
I think Lowe is on to something, but there are a
number of reasons why this show is
being talked about so much.
Dom

columnist
concluded they had to learn about
the people and the areas that delivered the election to Donald Trump.
They concluded that “Roseanne” was the show
that might still reach working class Americans.
The new show reached the heartland with the
top markets being Tulsa, Okla.; Cincinnati; and
Pittsburgh. The show did well in Chicago but that

and thought that the
reboot was excellent.
She then wrote: “This
ﬁctional family, and the show’s very real creator,
are further normalizing Trump and his warped
political ideologies. There are times when we can
consume problematic pop culture, but this is not
one of those times. I saw the ﬁrst two episodes of
the ‘Roseanne’ reboot, but that’s all I am going to
watch. It’s a small line to draw, but it’s a start.”
Chrissy Teigen tweeted out that “Roseanne” was
really helping to normalize Trump.
I don’t know whether the show “normalized”
Trump, but it did once again help to “normalize”
some of the people who voted for Trump. The
people who Hillary Clinton called “deplorables”
during the 2016 presidential campaign. It showed
true diversity of opinion in the battles over Trump
between Roseanne’s character and her liberal sister, Jackie, played by Laurie Metcalfe.
Network television has few shows that feature
working class families. I like “The Middle,” a
sweet show that addresses the continued economic challenges of a Midwestern family. However, it
does not pack the dramatic punch of “Roseanne.”
The strong ratings of this show have apparently
gotten Fox to consider bringing back Tim Allen’s
“Last Man Standing.” The show was canceled two
months after Allen told Jimmy Kimmel that an
actor had to be “careful” in Hollywood if you were
a conservative or Republican.
Of course, it will be interesting to see whether
the show has staying power. I know that the
Trump debates in the ﬁrst two episodes gave it
added juice. I think the Trump base of supporters
is as loyal as any I have seen for any politician.
The opposition to Trump is the most vitriolic I
have ever witnessed. The resistance wants to tear
Trump apart.
The unfortunate consequence of this hatred is the
savagery of attacks mounted against decent men
such as Rep. Ryan Costello and Sen. Pat Toomey.
Neither man has really been a Trump supporter;
Costello didn’t even attend Trump’s inauguration.
Neither man is a rabid public ﬁgure in tone or policies. However, Costello has had his ofﬁce invaded
by angry anti-Trump mobs and shouted down at
many public events. Because of angry mobs, Toomey has had to move his Philadelphia ofﬁce to the
protection of a federal complex and can do almost
no public events in Philadelphia.
I realize many local commentators see these
actions as necessary to stop Trump, and they
even romanticize the people committing them as
guardians of democracy. They are not guardians
of anything, and the excesses of their actions help
Trump in many ways.
It’s projected that future episodes of “Roseanne”
will deal with illegal immigration and the opioid
crisis. These are issues that affect working-class
Americans more than most. This show might
reach people on these issues more than most news
shows.
I hope America is watching.
This column originally appeared in the Philadelphia Daily News.

THEIR VIEW

Have we forgotten kindness?
Nearly 30 years ago,
upon his inauguration
as the 41st president,
George H.W. Bush spoke
of a “kinder, gentler”
nation arising in the
future. Looking around
today in one of my gloomier moments, I wonder
if we haven’t become
a meaner and rougher
society, at least as far as
the national conversation
goes. Politics aside, just
in day-to-day dealings
with people and institutions, it seems that what
we hear about is a certain
hardness and lack of
civility that has placed so
many individuals at odds
with one another, with a
corresponding increase
in resentment, lack of
respect and inability to
have a discussion that
isn’t couched in anger.
So, some of you may
ask, what else is new?
Such is the approach
that’s marked the ﬁrst
two decades of the 21st
Century. It’s affected me
at times as well. I recall
some years ago, dealing
with an insistent and
rather obnoxious New

Truman had overstepped
his authority, opening
the way for a seven-week
strike by steelworkers.)

Dara in the Persian Gulf,
causing it to sink; 238 of
the 819 people aboard
were killed.
In 1973, artist Pablo
Picasso died in Mougins
(MOO’-zhun), France, at
age 91.
In 1988, TV evangelist
Jimmy Swaggart resigned
from the Assemblies
of God after he was
defrocked for rejecting an
order from the church’s
national leaders to stop
preaching for a year amid
reports he had consorted
with a prostitute.
In 1993, singer Marian
Anderson died in Portland, Oregon, at age 96.
In 1994, Kurt Cobain,
singer and guitarist for
the grunge band Nirvana,
was found dead in Seattle
from an apparently selfinﬂicted gunshot wound;
he was 27.
In 2003, kidnapperrapist John Jamelske,
who had imprisoned
ﬁve women and girls,
one after another, as sex
slaves inside a makeshift
dungeon in his DeWitt,
New York, home, was
arrested. (Jamelske, who
pleaded guilty to ﬁve
counts of ﬁrst-degree
kidnapping, is serving an
18 years-to-life sentence
in a maximum security
prison.)
Ten years ago:
The top U.S. commander in Iraq, Army Gen.
David Petraeus, told Con-

gress that hard-won gains
in the war zone were too
fragile to promise any
troop pullouts beyond the
summer as he held his
ground against impatient
Democrats and refused
to commit to more withdrawals before President
George W. Bush left ofﬁce
in January 2009. American Airlines grounded all
300 of its MD-80 jetliners amid safety concerns
about wiring bundles;
the carrier ended up canceling more than 3,000
ﬂights over the next four
days. Tennessee captured
its eighth women’s NCAA
championship with a
64-48 victory over Stanford.
Five years ago:
President Barack
Obama warned Congress not to use delaying
tactics against tighter
gun regulations and told
families of the Sandy
Hook Elementary School
shooting victims during a visit to Hartford,
Connecticut, that he was
“determined as ever” to
honor their children with
tougher laws. Former
British Prime Minister
Margaret Thatcher, 87,
died in London. Actress
and former Disney
“Mouseketeer” Annette
Funicello, 70, died in
Bakersﬁeld, California.

Memorial Basketball Hall
of Fame along with former NBA stars Bernard
King and Gary Payton,

Carolina women’s coach
Sylvia Hatchell, former

coach Guy Lewis and

As your Meigs County Common Pleas Judge, I would be working for ALL of Meigs County. My family and I are from Meigs County, and I
have always been proud to be from Meigs County. I am genuine in my commitment to the community.
I am tough, but fair. I will approach each case without prejudice or bias. I will make sure the Common Pleas Court is managed with
honesty, integrity, and fairness. I will make sure anyone who is convicted of committing a crime in Meigs County is held accountable and
sentenced appropriately.
I live here and love here. The safety and security of each of you is extremely important to me.
I have a strong faith and believe that each person who appears in court is another Child of God and must be given my full attention.
I would make sure we are all protected by upholding the rights guaranteed under the Constitution, and that our individual liberties are
protected. But, if anyone violates the law, commits a crime and victimizes others, that person must be punished appropriately— and I
have no problem issuing such punishment.
I am dedicated to Meigs County-past, present and future. Vote for me and, TOGETHER, we can and will build a stronger community.

TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio —
The goal was always there, now
the destination is set.
On Monday at Eastern High
School, senior Elizabeth Collins
signed her National Letter of
Intent to join the Siena Heights
women’s basketball team next
season.
“I’ve wanted to play in college
since I was little, I just didn’t
know where, now I know where,”
Collins said. “I went there for a
visit and it was fun. There weren’t
a lot of kids on campus because
they were on spring break, but
I got to meet some of the girls.
They were nice and they were
really funny.”

In four seasons at Eastern, Collins has helped the Lady Eagles to
a 72-26 record with four sectional
titles and one district championship. After being coached by John
Burdette in her ﬁrst two seasons,
Collins was been coached by
Jacob Parker in her junior and
senior campaigns.
“She’s meant a great deal, she
comes in and works hard every
day,” Parker said. “She really
stepped up this year as a senior,
and took freshmen under her
wing. She tried to show them the
ropes and show them how to work
hard. Of course, her scoring and
rebounding was essential for our
team.
“I think she’s going to do great,

CENTENARY, Ohio —
Court was in session for
GAHS tennis on Thursday night … and the verdict was victory.
The Gallia Academy
tennis team earned a
sweep over visiting Jackson, taking all three of its
singles matches and both
doubles contest while
picking up a 5-0 victory
on Thursday night at Gallia Academy High School.

In singles competition, Pierce Wilcoxon
defeated Blake Wyatt 6-2,
6-1, Awane Sawamoto
won 6-3, 6-3 over Mason
Sheets, and Kirsten Hesson won 6-2, 6-2 against
Raymond Armstrong.
In doubles action,
Katie Carpenter and
Thomas Hamilton were
victorious by scores of
6-0, 6-3 over Carson
Strange and Garrett
Turner, while Brittany
Masters and Nick Mayes
won 6-3, 6-2 against

Trevor Waugh and Stephen Marshment.
Following the game,
GAHS head coach
Randy Christian was
pleased with his teams
performance — particularly given the history
between the two tennis
programs.
“This was the first
year we haven’t had the
league,” said Christian.
“Historically between
ourselves and Jackson,
it was dog eat dog for
the league, but it’s still

a good rivalry. We’ve
played 3-2 contests the
last four times we’ve
met — they’ve all been
nail biters. I changed the
line up a bit this evening,
trying to get more of the
players involved in the
singles action. I was wellpleased with the result.”
Gallia Academy returns
to the court on Monday
as it travels to face Washington Court House at
4:30 p.m.

she works hard and she has that killer
instinct. She’s competitive and that’s what
you need at the next level. I think she’s going
to go in, try to prove herself early and work
hard. She’s super coachable and has a great
attitude. I don’t think you could ask for a
better person to go to the next level and represent Eastern.”
Collins averaged a double-double of 15
points and 10 rebounds her senior season
at EHS, after averaging 10 points per game
and a junior and 5.5 points per game as a
sophomore.
A three-time All-Tri-Valley Conference
Hocking Division selection, and a two-time
All-Ohio honorable mention, Collins was an
All-Southeast District selection all-4 years.
Elizabeth was an all-district special mention
as a freshman, a third teamer as a sophomore and a second teamer in both her junior
and senior seasons.
Collins credits her coaches and working in
the gym every day, as well as playing travel
ball as to what helped her get to the next
level.
“We came in on the weekends and shot
a lot of foul shots, because we weren’t very
good at those,” Collins said. “We did some
workouts over the summer and I played summer-ball with a couple of teams. I was able to
play with different players and stuff like that.
You play in different areas, so you play different people from like Toledo, and Cincinnati,
and you play bigger people.”
Siena Heights University is located in
Arcadia, Michigan, 36 miles northwest of
Toledo, Ohio. SHU is an NAIA school and
the Saints compete in the Wolverine-Hoosier
Athletic Conference.
Collins will be joining a Saints squad that
was 18-13 last season, including 11-9 in the
WHAC. In her 12th season as head coach of
Siena Heights is Sue Syljebeck.
“I’m looking forward to meeting new
people and playing against different people,”
said Collins. “The tournaments deﬁantly
make me excited. Their coach was a D-1
post player and I’ve never had an actual post
coach.”
Collins — who held a 3.7 grade-point-average at Eastern — will have a Pre-Veterinary
major at SHU.

SOUTH POINT, Ohio — It’s hard to
take advantage of limited opportunities.
The Gallia Academy baseball team
produced only three hits and had
only three runners reach second base
on Friday night during a 6-0 setback
to host South Point in an Ohio Valley Conference contest in Lawrence
County.
The Blue Devils (2-2, 1-1 OVC) were
never really in a threatening position
as the guests had only one baserunner get into scoring position with less
than two outs, which occurred in the
top of the sixth.
Wyatt Sipple started that inning
with a leadoff single and stole second
shortly thereafter, but the Blue and
White took back-to-back strikeouts
looking. Sipple then advanced to third
on a passed ball, but a 4-3 putout
ultimately ended the only threat that
guests mustered.
Cole Davis was stranded at second
after a two-out single in the third
and was also left at second base after
reaching on a ﬁelder’s choice with two
outs in the ﬁfth.
GAHS had only seven baserunners
in the contest, and ﬁve of those ended
up being left on base.
The Pointers, on the other hand, had
14 different baserunners in the game
— with a dozen of those coming after a
scoreless tie through two complete.
SPHS, however, had the ﬂood gates
open in the home half of the third as a
one-out error allowed Douglas Shaffer
to reach safely, then Brody Blackwell
walked and Jonathan Henline was
issued a free pass to load the bases
with two away.
Drake McClure was at the plate
when a wild pitch allowed Shaffer to
come home with the eventual gamewinning run for a 1-0 edge after three
complete.
Two errors and a single allowed
Ben Walls to score for a 2-0 lead, then
Drew Smith scored on a dropped third
strike conversion. Brycen McCann
then came home on a passed ball that
gave the Blue and Gold a 4-0 lead after
four complete.
After a scoreless ﬁfth, SPHS added
its ﬁnal two scores in the home half of
the sixth as Blackwell doubled home
both Brendan Dillon and Shaffer to
complete the six-run triumph.
South Point — which stranded
seven runners on base — outhit the
guests by a 5-3 overall margin, but also
beneﬁted from four GAHS errors. The
hosts also committed a single error in
the victory.
Henline was the winning pitcher of
record after allowing three hits and a
walk over seven innings while striking
out six. Kaden Thomas took the loss
after surrendering four unearned runs,
two hits and three walks over four
frames while fanning four.
Sipple, Davis and Braden Simms
had the lone hits for Gallia Academy,
while Shaffer, Blackwell, McClure,
Smith and Travis Dillon had a safety
apiece for the victors.
Blackwell drove in a team-high two
RBIs and Shaffer scored twice for the
Pointers.

(1:06.68) and 200m dash
(29.95) along with a third

dash with a time of 14.42.
The Silver and Black
also received individual

“Anytime you can get

so we are heading in the
right direction. We got

“We got out to a big

run, giving the Lady
Tornadoes a 6-0 edge.
Southern was scoreless in the fourth
