Trump recognize Retired Brigadier General Charles McGee during his State of the Union address on Tuesday, in Gallia County, Ohio, McGee was remembered for his visit to the storied Emancipation Proclamation celebration in 2004. McGee, 100, was born in Cleveland, Ohio and is one of the last surviving Tuskegee Airmen of World War II. The Tuskegee Airmen were AfricanAmerican military pilots during World War II and were the ﬁrst African- and Vietnam wars. Turning 100 hasn’t slowed McGee down, having also participated in the coin toss at the recent Super Bowl, representing World War II veterans. In addition, this month, NASA also honored McGee for his accomplishments.

The pilots stretched into the Korean City considers defining animal shelters By Dean Wright deanwright@aimmediamidwest.com Webster Post 39 auxiliary members visit Arbors during Christmas time giving gifts to the residents who are veterans. “We like to do what we can for our veterans,” said Kathy Thomas. Kathy Thomas shared prior to Christmas she and her husband visited their son Derek Johnson at his home in GALLIPOLIS — Area resident Charlene Carter approached Gallipolis City Commission Tuesday and utilized privilege of the ﬂoor to ask the commission to consider passing an ordinance to set a legal standard for an outside animal’s shelter within municipal limits. “I’m here tonight as a pet advocate,” said Carter. “In our community, the current code that we have does not deﬁne a proper shelter for a pet conﬁned outside. Looking at this, (referring to Ohio Revised Code) it is a state code. From what I understand, other cities then adopt their own conditions acceptable to each community.” Carter said she researched a deﬁnition for an appropriate animal shelter as “solid four walls, appropriate-sized door, ﬂoor roof and must not be larger than three to four times the size of the dog (or pet).” Carter went on to say she felt that at least the area surrounding the animal should be free from standing water and the shelter should be able to allow the animal to contain its own body heat. “Right now, the current code just basically says a lean-to, vegetation. It doesn’t specify that,” said Carter. “Anything less than that (Carter’s shelter), anything less than that in 30-degree weather is just cruel to the animal. I’m hoping that this commission will consider changing the code. A lot of other surrounding areas in Ohio are doing this now and even limiting the time that a pet can be tied outside in the weather. I’m not asking that we go to that extreme but at least deﬁne a proper shelter…” See SHOES | 8A See SHELTER | 8A February is National Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month By James K. Stanley Special to OVP MEIGS COUNTY — February is National Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month (TDVAM). The Meigs County Prosecuting Attorney’s Ofﬁce and Victims Assistance Program asks you to wear orange on Feb. 11, to show your support for teenage victims of dating violence.

It’s something they’ll have to deal with the rest of their lives. I hope this conviction brings them some peace. I appreciate Attorney General’s Dave Yost’s ofﬁce for taking the case and working together to get a conviction for these victims.” Beavers, 27, was a trusted, known individual who gained access to the children because of his relationship to the family. After sexual abuse that occurred between August 2018 and April 2019, the victims disclosed the abuse to a family member. Beavers was indicted on May 3, 2019. Beavers was sentenced to life in prison with parole eligibility after 15 years. If released, he will be required to register as a Tier III sex offender. The case was investigated by the Jackson County Sheriff’s Ofﬁce and prosecuted by Associate Assistant Attorney General Natasha Natale of Yost’s Special Prosecution section. “There is nothing uglier than the violation of children — and prosecuting these cases is tough, hearttearing work,” Yost said. “I am thankful for prosecutors like Natasha who daily confront evil and seek justice for the unprotected.” Information provided by the Ohio Attorney General’s Ofﬁce.

But it can also result in something called postpartum depression (PPD). Pregnancy, labor, and birth are perhaps the most signiﬁcant life experiences that a woman and her partner will encounter. It is a time of extreme physical and emotional transition with intense hormonal, psychological, and biological changes. Many new moms experience what is called postpartum “baby blues” after childbirth, which commonly include mood swings, crying spells and sadness, anxiety, difﬁculty sleeping, and feeling overwhelmed women actually feel as if they are “going crazy” because their symptoms do not match what they read or hear about, and they are afraid to reveal the things that are really going on inside their heads. Women with PPD can suffer with their symptoms for quite some time before seeking help. If you’re feeling depressed after your baby’s birth, you may be reluctant or embarrassed to admit it. You may be embarrassed or afraid to share what you are experiencing, or apprehensive about the stigma related to depression and mental health issues. However, if untreated, PPD may last for months or even longer, so early detec- crying, depressed and worried.

If you’re a boomer or beyond, you are probably familiar with the ﬁlm’s storyline. “Oliver Barrett IV (Ryan O’Neal) the heir of an American upper-class East Coast family is attending Harvard College where he plays hockey. He meets Jennifer ‘Jenny’ Cavilleri, (Ali McGraw), a quickwitted, working-class Radcliffe College student of classical music, they quickly fall in love despite their differences,” according to Wikepedia.org. Huge spoiler alert, viewers know from the beginning that the ending will be heartbreaking. This is revealed in the ﬁlm’s opening when the audience is presented with the poignant line: “What can you say about a girl who was 25 and died?” The tragic romantic drama was written by author, Erich Segal, and based on his best-selling novel, “Love Story.” The American Film Institute lists the movie as number nine (No. 9) on its list of most romantic movies and was the highest-grossing ﬁlm of 1970 taking in $106.4 million at the box ofﬁce. “But did this seemingly harmless heartbreaker of a movie negatively affect the romantic relationships of the countless then young, impressionable theater-goers who watched Christina it?” Sadly, for some individuals, I personally believe that it did. Ryan You see, hosts of impressionable Claypool Contributing youth might have embraced Jenny Cavilleri’s (McGraw’s) famous line, columnist “Love means never having to say you’re sorry,” to Oliver (O’Neal) when he apologizes for an angry outburst. Later, Oliver repeats the famous line to his millionaire father (Ray Milland) after Jenny dies. I’m embarrassed to say, I was among those misguided romantic girls who once found this legendary line credible. With Valentine’s Day rapidly approaching, some theaters nationwide will host a special viewing of the ﬁlm during February in celebration of its 50th anniversary this year. When I saw the advertisements, I wondered if a whole new generation of movie-goers might fall for this faulty philosophy. “Am I the only one who thinks that ‘Love means never having to say you’re sorry’ is just plain wrong?” one individual asks the Internet website, www.Quora.com. Apparently not, “Erich Segal’s classic is no friend to love,” writes www.DailyMail.com columnist, Amanda Craig in an archived post. “It is quite possibly, one of the worst philosophical guides by which to conduct your life ever to have been offered …Whatever love means saying sorry is a huge part of it.” Unfortunately, it’s not easy to learn the art of apology. Admittedly, after being married for almost two decades, it’s still a challenge to acknowledge when I’m in the wrong. Yet I’m grateful I quickly grew to disbelieve the quotation’s dangerous message that when true love exists between two people in a relationship, it can be unconditional, no explanations necessary for bad behavior, and no apologies expected for negative actions or unkind words. If human beings were perfect, never having to say you’re sorry could work. But we are ﬂawed, and sadly our less than perfect natures can result in the unwanted outcome of hurting the ones we love the most. Dr. Gary Chapman and Dr. Jennifer Thomas believe so strongly that learning to apologize in a meaningful way is necessary to the health of a relationship, they co-wrote the book, “The Five Languages of Apology” in 2006. The book’s theme supports the theory that a sincere request for forgiveness can be an inﬂuential tool in mending a relational rift. Chapman is well-known for the New York Times bestseller, “The Five Love Languages.” In “Love Story,” no apologies are necessary for anything ever, if you love the one you have wounded. The iconic ﬁlm both won and was nominated for all kinds of 1971 industry awards winning one Oscar for Best Music, the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture (Drama) along with another eight wins and 16 nominations in various awards and categories. Ryan O’Neal was nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor in a Leading Role. He was a young, handsome heartthrob who undoubtedly sold us a bill of goods with his infamous line. Ironically in the last scene of his 1972 ﬁlm “What’s Up, Doc” co-starring Barbara Streisand. Streisand’s character (Judy) tells love interest (Howard) Ryan O’Neal, “Let me tell you something, love means never having to say you’re sorry.” “That’s the dumbest thing I ever heard,” replies Howard (O’Neal). Truthfully, I couldn’t agree more. Christina Ryan Claypool is a freelance journalist and an inspirational speaker. Contact her through her website at www. christinaryanclaypool.com. THEIR VIEW Making it easier to afford a home Right now, many Ohioans are struggling to make ends meet. Even people with supposedlymiddle-class jobs don’t feel stable. Wages have barely budged, and the cost of everything is up – higher education, health care, child care, and – critically — housing. We are in the midst of an affordable housing crisis in Ohio, and across the country. I see it when I drive past the boarded up houses that belonged to the victims of predatory lending in my neighborhood of Slavic Village, and so many like it across the country. I also see it when I talk to young people in their 20s and 30s who want to buy a home, tee, I understand but who are drownthat historically, ing in student loan we have not paid debt and can’t save nearly enough enough for a down attention to the payment, or afford “housing” part of a mortgage. that title.

RACINE, Ohio — Offense in abundance. The Southern and Wahama boys basketball teams both posted seasonhighs in the scoring column on Friday night in Meigs County, with the host Tornadoes taking a 75-55 victory in Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division play. The Purple and Gold (8-10, 7-6 TVC Hocking) — snapping a three-game skid — never trailed in the game, starting the night with an 8-0 run over the ﬁrst 1:34. The hosts forced seven live-ball turnovers in the opening period and hit over 70 percent of their ﬁeld goal attempts, leading to a 29-8 advantage on the scoreboard. Wahama (0-17, 0-14) scored 10 of the ﬁrst 12 points in the second period, cutting its deﬁcit to 31-18 with 5:00 left in the half. Southern, however, answered with a 15-to-2 run and headed into halftime with a 46-20 advantage. The White Falcons scored seven of the ﬁrst 10 points in the second half, before a 10-to-5 spurt gave the hosts a 61-32 lead with eight minutes to play. Southern hit a twopointer to take its largest lead of the night, at 31 points, 18 seconds into the ﬁnale. The Red and White closed the night with a 23-to-12 run, and fell by a 75-55 count. For the game, SHS shot 29-of-66 (43.9 percent) from the ﬁeld, including 9-of-25 (36 percent) from deep. Meanwhile, Wahama made 23-of-57 (40.4 percent) ﬁeld goal attempts, including 7-of25 (28 percent) threepoint tries. Both sides were near-perfect at the foul line, Southern making 6-of-7 (85.7 percent) and See SOUTHERN | 2B Lady Eagles avenge Wahama Falcons, 54-30 By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio — The difference came after the break. The Eastern girls basketball team used a 31-13 second half surge to break away from a 2-possession game at halftime Thursday night en route to a 54-30 victory over visiting Wahama in a TriValley Conference Hocking Division contest at the Eagle’s Nest in Meigs County. The Lady Eagles (10-11, 7-8 TVC Hocking) found themselves in a small 9-8 hole after one quarter of play, but the hosts countered with four points from Jaymie Basham as part of a 13-8 second period charge that gave the Green and Gold a 21-17 intermission edge. The Lady Falcons (8-10, 7-9) were ultimately never closer as Sydney Reynolds poured in six points during a pivotal 15-3 third quarter surge, giving EHS a comfortable 36-20 cushion entering the ﬁnale. Emma Gibbs paced the Red and White with ﬁve points down the stretch, but Basham, Reynolds and Erica Durst each provided four points as part of a 16-10 run to wrap up the 24-point outcome. Eastern also salvaged a season split after dropping a 38-33 decision at WHS back on Jan. 9. The Lady Eagles made 19 total ﬁeld goals — all 2-pointers — and also went 16-of-22 at the free throw line for 73 percent. The hosts also committed 18 turnovers in the triumph. Basham paced EHS with a game-high 15 points, followed by Reynolds with 14 points and Durst with 10 markers.

Bryant, his 13-year-old daughter Gianna, and the others died in the Jan. 26 crash in Calabasas, California. The group was ﬂying to a girls basketball tournament at his Mamba Sports Academy. Gianna’s team was coached by Bryant and was playing in the tournament. The NTSB is investigating the accident, including any role heavy fog played, and a ﬁnal report isn’t expected for at least a year. A witness told the NTSB that the helicopter was ﬂying forward and downward through the fog before it crashed right into the hillside. The witness said he saw the helicopter for 1 to 2 seconds before it hit the hill. The helicopter’s instrument panel was destroyed in the crash and most of the devices were displaced, according to the NTSB’s investigative update. The ﬂight controls were broken and suffered ﬁre damage. Investigators believe that since a tree branch at the crash site was cut, it appears the engines were working and rotors turning at the time of impact. Friday’s report was merely informational and did not offer any ﬁndings about what caused the crash. The victims’ deaths have been ruled an accident by blunt trauma, according to the Los Angeles County coroner.

The deaths shook Los Angeles and the sporting world, with memorials spanning the city and tributes at the Super Bowl and other games. A public memorial for Bryant and the other victims is scheduled for Feb. 24 at the Staples Center. The arena is where Bryant starred for the Los Angeles Lakers for most of his two-decade and the date 2/24 corresponds with the No. 24 jersey he wore and the No. 2 worn by Gianna. The aircraft did not have a device called the Terrain Awareness and Warning System that signals when an aircraft is in danger of hitting ground. The NTSB has recommended the Sunday Times-Sentinel system be mandatory for helicopters but the Federal Aviation Administration only requires it for air ambulances. U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein and U.S. Rep. Brad Sherman, both California Democrats, have called for the FAA to mandate the devices in the wake of the tragedy. It’s not clear if the warning system would have averted the crash. The helicopter was also not required to have a black box. A public memorial for Orange Coast College baseball coach John Altobelli, his wife, Keri, and daughter Alyssa will be held Feb. 10 at Angel Stadium of Anaheim. Also killed in the crash were Bryant friends Christina Mauser, Sarah Chester and her daughter Payton. Blue Angels breeze past Rock Hill, 57-36 By Alex Hawley game.

It’s a good thing.” The 59-year-old ﬁghter will be celebrated at an anniversary gala Friday in his hometown of Columbus, Ohio, where he’ll raise money for programs that help others who face seemingly insurmountable challenges. His stable of students throughout Columbus’ parks and recreation system look up to the man they call simply “coach” as a teacher, friend and hero. “I mean, I really look up to Mike Tyson, but I don’t look up to him as much as Coach,” said 11-year-old Colton Matson, who has worked with Douglas since he was 6. “Really, Mike Tyson was the second-most greatest boxer in the world still to this day. It’s crazy that Coach, like, just beat him,” he said. “It might have just been luck, but I can tell you that Coach worked hard for it even if it was luck.” Tyson was the reigning undisputed heavyweight champion of the world, and a frightening opponent to boot, when he entered the ring against James “Buster” Douglas on Feb. 11, 1990, in Tokyo. Only one Las Vegas bookie — whether brave or stupid — would set odds on the ﬁght: 42 to 1. Douglas won, stunning the sports world. But what followed was anything but a celebration. Tyson and ﬁght promoter Don King challenged Douglas’ victory, claiming Douglas had gone down ﬁrst in the ﬁght but been given more time than allowed to get up. Douglas’ victory was ultimately upheld, but not before months of drama and expensive litigation. “Don came at me with a vengeance and I was subpoenaed everywhere I went to,” Douglas said. “It made it very uncomfortable and kind of took the ‘f’ out of fun.” A message was left at a phone number for King. Tyson didn’t respond to an interview request. He told late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel in 2015 that it was “Buster’s anniversary” to celebrate, not his. Tyson said the loss was a positive for him in the end, allowing him to learn how to “overcome adversity.” The two have barely crossed paths since the ﬁght. The dispute over the ﬁght’s outcome — combined with lingering grief over his mother’s death shortly before the ﬁght — sent Douglas into a slump, he said. “Believe it or not, I was where I really didn’t care about anything,” he recalled. “Something I always looked forward to becoming one day and then you get it and it turns into a nightmare really quick.” Douglas said he was almost relieved when Evander Holyﬁeld knocked him out in the third round of their match-up a little over eight months later, taking the title. “It was a relief and then it was upsetting, too, because of how it all came to an end,” Douglas said. A short reign, with a long legacy. The ﬁght is still remembered as one of the most spectacular upsets in sports history. Douglas’ story gained new attention with the 2018 release of an ESPN documentary, titled “42 to 1” after the odds against Douglas. Douglas has given his charity effort the same name and formed an ongoing strategic partnership aimed at delivering several programs focused on workforce development, diversity and soft skills training to at-risk youth. He said working with kids is one of his favorite things to do. ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Major League Baseball intends to impose new limits on what live video is available to teams, and Commissioner Rob Manfred hopes to complete his investigation into alleged electronic sign stealing by the Boston Red Sox before spring training camps open next week. “I think you should assume that before the season starts we will have new guidelines with respect to the use of video equipment,” Manfred said Thursday after an owners meeting. “I think we have too much video available in real time right now.” After former Houston pitcher Mike Fiers told The Athletic in November that the Astros used a video camera to steal the signs of opposing catchers in 2017 and 2018, Manfred last month suspended Houston manager AJ Hinch and general manager Jeff Luhnow for one season, ﬁned the Astros $5 million and stripped them of their ﬁrst- and secondround drafts picks in 2020 and 2021. Hinch and Luhnow were ﬁred the same day, and the scandal led to the departures of Boston manager Alex Cora, Houston’s bench coach during its 2017 title run, and New York Mets manager Carlos Beltrán, an Astros player that season. MLB is investigating a separate allegation the Red Sox broke sign-stealing rules in 2018, when Cora led Boston to the championship in his ﬁrst season as manager. “I’m hopeful that I can get Boston done before the camps open,” said Manfred, with workouts to start Wednesday.

But he left open the possibility of discipline for future violations. “We have the right to discipline players right now. I’m absolutely convinced of that fact,” he said. “We made a decision in the Houston investigation that in order for us to get the facts that we needed, somebody had to get immunity.” He was not disappointed by the reluctance of current Astros players to apologize. “I think the jury’s still out on exactly what the Houston players are going to say,” he said, pointing toward spring training as the possible time and place for contrition. Baseball has looked at earpieces as a way to avoid the use of signs but determined it would be impractical. While football uses earpieces, helmets are much larger than baseball caps. “It’s much harder to design an earpiece that would be comfortable for players to wear in lieu of signs,” he said, adding, “it’s hard to be as fast as hand signals.” Giants president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi, the Dodgers GM when Los Angeles lost to Houston, said he isn’t sure how much the sign-stealing scheme even helped. “I think it’s natural for teams to sort of look for every advantage,” Zaidi said, speaking in San Francisco. “That’s what obviously was the motivating factor. I think it’s been made a lot more clear going forward where the lines are and I think for anybody in this game you just want to feel like the playing ﬁeld is level going forward, and I think we’re going to have that next year (2020).” Astros owner Jim Crane did not attend the meetings. He is playing in the Pebble Beach Pro-Am golf tournament along with pitcher Justin Verlander this weekend.
