You’ll probably get advice from everyone about what you should and shouldn’t be doing, and it can be very overwhelming. But staying healthy during pregnancy depends on you, so it’s also up to you to be proactive and do what you can to keep you and your baby as healthy as possible. See your doctor or midwife regularly: A key to protecting the health of you and your child is making sure to get regular prenatal care. Make an appointment to see your doctor or midwife as soon as you suspect you are pregnant, and be sure to keep regular appointments throughout the pregnancy. *Eat a balanced diet: Healthy eating is always important, but especially when you’re pregnant. Make sure your calories come from nutritious foods that will contribute to your baby’s growth and development. By eating a healthy, balanced diet you’re more likely to get the nutrients you need. But you will need more of the essential nutrients (especially calcium, iron, and folic acid) than you did before you became pregnant. Talk to your healthcare provider about taking prenatal vitamins and folic acid supplements, even before planning to become pregnant. Foods you’ll want to steer clear of include: anything unpasteurized (unpasteurized cheeses, milks, etc.), raw eggs or anything containing raw eggs, raw or undercooked meats, cold processed meats like deli meat. Avoid eating certain fish (swordfish, mackerel, tuna steak, shark), since these may contain high levels of mercury. dration and constiBe active: pation. *Get plenty Exercise during of rest: It’s imporpregnancy has tant to get enough been shown to be sleep during your extremely benefipregnancy.

No smoking, alcohol, or recreational drugs: No amount of these substances is considered safe during pregnancy, and they are easily passed along to the baby. Prematurity, birth defects, low birth weight, learning & behavior problems, breathing problems, miscarriage and stillbirth, and SIDS are at an increased risk when the mom ingests harmful substances. You wouldn’t light a cigarette, put it in your baby’s mouth, and encourage your little one to puff away. As ridiculous as that seems, pregnant women who continue to smoke are allowing their fetus to smoke, too. The smoking mother passes nicotine and carbon monoxide to her growing baby. If you smoke, drink, or use drugs, having a baby might be the motivation you need to quit. Caffeine: High caffeine consumption has been linked to an increased risk of miscarriage, so it’s probably wise to limit or even avoid caffeine altogether if you can. And remember that caffeine is not limited to coffee. Many teas, colas, and other soft drinks contain caffeine. Changing the Litter Box: Pregnancy is the prime time to get out of cleaning kitty’s litter box. Why? Because toxoplasmosis can be spread through soiled cat litter boxes and can cause serious problems, including prematurity, poor growth, and severe eye and brain damage.

Traveling east on Ohio 160 toward Gallipolis, the Deels noticed that the historical marker for the Lambert Lands at the intersection of 160 and Thompson Road, just up from the Field of Hope campus, was missing. Curious, and despite the gathering dusk, Fred pulled over to that side of the road and inspected the site, only Kevin to find the memorial to the Morgan Kelly Township tract owned by the descenContributing dants of one-time slaves lying in columnist pieces in the grass. We have no information at present on what caused the damage, although it appears that a vehicle left the highway and may have struck the sign, causing it to topple to the ground and shatter. A shame really, but our concern is with the inevitable question, what’s going to be done about it? Will it be left to be covered in weeds, or will an effort be mounted to repair and restore the marker to its proper place? Will indifference and a “not my problem” attitude prevail, or will individuals who care enough about regional history step forward to bring the memorial back to its former glory? One can hope the latter belief is pursued, especially since the Lambert Lands legacy remains unique to local history. A band It may only be a sign, of slaves freed by but the significance of their owner in what it celebrates is as Bedford County, important now as when Va., came to the it waqs unveiled on Sept. northern part of Gallia County late 14, 2002. in 1843, where they purchased just over 265 acres and established the site as their home. In the years prior to the Emancipation Proclamation, the settlement became an important stop along the Underground Railroad for slaves who escaped their bondage to seek better lives in the northern U.S. and Canada. Descendants of the original founders lived on the land until 1972, historical organizations inform us. Maintaining such a link with local and national history is vital to an appreciation of ourselves and our origins. That may not have meant as much to people speeding by the site where the marker was located on 160, but it served as a needed reminder of those facts when people took time to look at it during their travels. It’s why an historic structure in our region remains as a tourist site and museum. The Gen. Albert Gallatin Jenkins House off W.Va. 2 at Green Bottom, between Glenwood and Lesage, was the residence of planter and attorney Jenkins, who served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1857 until 1861, when he joined Southern forces in the Civil War. Rising to the rank or brigadier general, Jenkins was 33 when he died of wounds suffered at the Battle of Cloyd’s Mountain in Pulaski County, Va., in 1864. The property on which the house stands is owned by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, but the museum is operated by West Virginia’s Department of Culture and History. The facility is presently closed while the Corps conducts preservation work to maintain the structure’s original look when built in 1835. On the National Register of Historic Places since 1978, the Jenkins House is a sturdy show of commitment to keeping alive its place in history. As this is being written, responsible sources may be fully aware of what’s happened to the Lambert Lands marker and may now be addressing its replacement, which we recognize will take time and especially money. It may only be a sign, but the significance of what it celebrates is as important now as when it waqs unveiled on Sept. 14, 2002. *** As a major fan of movies, particularly of an older vintage, the question has occasionally arisen if I was ever personally involved in the making of a film.

I was — what else? — a journalist at a press conference in which nonsensical questions to the band were met by equally incoherent answers, especially since the soundtrack intentionally did not match up with what was on the screen.

After the groups split, they returned to the center of the room for a question and answer session with Slone. Several members of the roughly 20 individuals present had concerns about cutting around their homes and whether that would destroy the natural beauty of the location. Landowners such as Judy Miller, of Symmes Creek Road in Greenfield Township, shared that they had specifically purchased and moved to land near the Wayne National Forest for such reasons and were concerned given their home investment. She also expressed concern with whether the cut was simply for profit or not. Randolph Pepke, another Greenfield Township resident, expressed concern with the lack of individuals present for the meeting and felt it should have been better announced through media or other routes. He also stated he had trail cameras around his property capturing a variety of wildlife and questioned the necessity of “cutting down forest to bring more” as he felt the forest was “healthy.” Park employees said one of their first steps were to address landowners as they felt they would be the most affected by changes to the forest. The landowner meeting is simply the first of more to come as forest officials reach out to the public, they said. Money raised from the sale of timber would reportedly in part go back to local counties, schools where the forest resides and county government. In order to reach the habitat goals of the forest, park employees said the timber had to be a “product that is financially beneficial” to harvesters in order to pay for the land’s diversification. A resident of Aid in Lawrence County was concerned with how the cutting of trees would effect waterflow in the Symmes Creek Watershed and if it would increase Pool From page 1A integrity is discovered. She commented at the emergency meeting last week regarding repairs needed for the Fibre-Tech coating on the pool led to the discovery of structural issues in the concrete decking and along the walls of the pool. After the council consulted with the Meigs County Health Department and the Ohio Department of Health, the village flooding. He emphasized flooding at times was already dangerous for the region and its occupants. Slone responded that hopefully those concerns would be addressed as an environmental study was completed at a later date. One man said he was concerned that with the construction of roads in the area, would it lead to the potential for fracking later in the forest. Slone said that was not the scope of this project, but simply to regenerate forest growth. Some landowners expressed concern that they felt the Sunny Oaks Project was a reincarnation of a previously abandoned effort called the Buckeye Habitat Improvement Project. Forest employees wrote down concerns of residents and asked them to leave contact information so home visits might be scheduled so landowners could interface personally with them to address concerns on properties. secured the services of a structural engineer. Cottrill stated, “The village is morally and legally responsible to ensure the pool is structurally stable, safe, and clean. Rather than delaying the opening indefinitely and putting the entire staff and community on hold while the necessary inspections, fundraising, and repairs are done, council unanimously agreed this was the best decision for everyone involved.” Cottrill said updates will be given when more information is available. Should the project be approved, at earliest, Slone said it would go to bid in spring of next year. “The important thing is that we’re all here and that we all love the forest,” said Jill McCleese, of Elkins Creek Horsecamp. “We need to keep talking about these things and continue to educate ourselves (and the public) so we can enjoy the forest and make decisions with (forest management) for what’s best for it.” Both she and her husband Rick were present to see how the Sunny Oaks Project could affect area tourism business and activities.

Safe Harbor is open to the public. Carr said she received her certification for therapeutic riding through Ohio University in December of 2012 in order to open Safe Harbor. The riding horses and minis chosen to be used for therapy must have a certain set of qualities. Once the riding horses and minis are chosen based on their character, they must complete a training program. Safe Harbor volunteers explained horses have a special sense which aids them in detecting what type of individual with whom they are interacting. They mimic the attitudes of the individuals interacting with them explained Carr. Those who participate in either sort of therapy learn about their horses as well as how to care for them and practice safety. When individuals interact with the horses, they must use communication because the horses follow voice commands, thus improving the individuals’ speech. Carr commented when riding a horse, a part of the brain is stimulated that is connected to speaking which also improve individuals’ speech. The minis are utilized for equine therapy said Carr. When the minis visit the local nursing home, they will reach their heads over to the residents, so they can be easily pet. “When they go to the nursing home or when they work with a special needs (person), they know to stand there and that they have a job to do,” said Carr. Individuals who participate in equine therapy will be assigned their own mini who they must achieve a set of goals with all the while developing a bond with one another. The individuals, said Carr, will feed their mini, groom their mini, and then participate in a lesson with their mini. Individuals who participate in riding therapy enhance their physical abilities. Carr uses riding therapy. She stated, “The benefits for riders, just like — Amey Carr me, I have a lot of metal in me and I don’t walk that great, most of the time I use a cane, but when I’m riding, when you’re riding a horse, its gait is moving your body as if you’re walking, so it helps me, I walk better. Then, it helps build your core muscles, it helps builds your balance.” Curtis Atkinson and Kelly Mccallister both participate in equine and riding therapy. Atkinson and Mccallister shared they both enjoy riding the horses. Atkinson said his favorite mini is Pistol and he enjoys brushing, feeding, and walking him. Mccallister’s said her favorite mini is Flicka. Safe Harbor is open from May 1- Oct. 31 for riding and equine therapy sessions. At the end of the year, a party is held so participants involved in the program can show what they learned during the season. Safe Harbor supports the West Virginia Youth Expo held yearly and Carr explained several activities can take place at Safe Harbor such as My Little Pony themed birthday parties, school field trips, weddings, riding lessons, educational clinics, horse shows, and vacation bible schools. Also, members of the 4-H Club Cowboys and Angels hold their meetings and practice riding there. On Saturday, May 19 at 10:30 a.m. the West Virginia Miniature Horse Club Association will be having a show at Safe Harbor. Carr said in July the process of putting in a greenhouse will begin. She commented once the greenhouse is complete it will be an all year round program open to individuals. New volunteers at Safe Harbor are welcomed said Carr. She explained without help from the facility’s volunteers, the organization could not prosper. Volunteers must go through a training program. Donations and sponsorship to help support the clients, horses, and program’s needs are also appreciated. For anyone interested in volunteering, donating, or sponsoring can contact Carr at (304) 593-3499. Also, board members meet on the third Thursday every month, 6:30 p.m. at Safe Harbor and anyone is welcome to attend. Erin Perkins is a staff writer for Ohio Valley Publishing.

He went all nine innings for the Redhawks, his second-straight complete game. The Gallipolis native allowed just two runs on three hits while striking out a career-high 11 and walking none. After allowing a solo homer in the first inning, Graham went on to retire the next 20 batters and put forth seven innings in which he set the side down in order.

When we did, it paid off in a big way. We started hitting good pitches. Our bats came to life and we just kept building off of that. I told the girls, it’s a tour- nament game. There are no more favorites. This is the time of year when the team that shows up and plays the best that night is going to come out with the win. We have to take our game to them.” The Lady Eagles return to the diamond to face the Valley Lady Indians in a district semifinal contest at the University of Rio Grande at 4:30 p.m. Thursday.

The Lady Eagles were sent down in order in the top of the seventh, as Southern sealed the 11-7 triumph and the program’s 14th sectional title. Following the game, seventh-year Southern head coach Alan Crisp noted his teams ability to battle back throughout the campaign. “These kids have done it all year,” said Crisp. “They just don’t quit, there’s no quit in them, even though things couldn’t have been going worse at the beginning of the game. We weren’t hitting, we had some errors and mental mistakes, but these kids battled, battled, battled and made it happen, I’m proud of them.” Sydney Cleland was the winning pitcher of record in a complete game for SHS, striking out five batters and allowing seven runs, two earned, on 11 hits and two walks.

Southern committed three errors and left seven runners on base, while Eastern committed six errors and stranded 10 runners. The Lady Tornadoes will be matched up against No. 2 seed Portsmouth Notre Dame in Thursday’s 6 p.m. district semifinal at Rio Grande. “We have our hands full, we’re going to have to come out and play,” Crisp said. “The pressure is them, probably not us, so we’re just going to go play and see what happens. Rio Grande is a big plus for us, instead of having to go all the way to Minford, I think we’ll have a bigger fan base there. Our fans have been tremendous this year, we’ve had this place packed all the time.” The Lady Titans defeated Green by a 10-0 tally in their sectional final on Thursday. By Alex Hawley ALBANY, Ohio — The Lady Marauders’ kryptonite appears to be red. The Meigs softball had its season come to an end on Friday in Athens County, as the seventhseeded Lady Marauders fell to second-seeded Alexander for the third time this spring, dropping the Division III sectional championship game by a 5-0 count. Meigs (12-8) had the game’s first opportunity to score, but stranded a runner on third in the top of the opening inning. Alexander (203) — which has now won 11 consecutive games — also stranded a runner in scoring position in the opening frame, but retired the Lady Marauders in order in the top of the second. AHS left two runners in scoring position in the bottom of the second, and Meigs followed by stranding runners on first and second in the top of the third. Alexander broke the scoreless tie in the home half of the third, as Casto made it home following back-to-back errors. Four more more Lady Spartans scored in the inning, as the hosts broke the game wide open. AHS put runners on third base in the fifth and sixth innings, but never added to their 5-run total. The Lady Marauders didn’t reach scoring position again until the top of the sixth inning, but stranded a runner on third for the second time in the game. MHS put a pair of runners on base in the seventh, but the Lady Spartans got the strikeout they needed to seal the 5-0 win and the spot in the district semifinal. “I’m proud of them, because they’ve been in some other games and quit, and tonight they fought and kept playing,” Lady Marauders head coach Bryan Swann said. “We made some adjustments and started hitting the ball in the middle innings a little bit, we just hit it right at them.” Gracie Hill was the winning pitcher of record Tornadoes Alex Hawley can be reached at 740446-2342, ext. 2100.

Madison recorded seven points and teamhigh nine rebounds in final game for the Lady Eagles. Williams credits the coaching staff at Eastern for helping her achieve the goal of reaching the next level. After being coached by John Burdette for her first two seasons, Williams’ junior and senior campaigns were led by Jacob Parker. “Madison had a rough career, so to see her make it through her senior season was pretty cool,” Parker said. “To see the work she put into it, from being on the fence about playing because of her health, to now going to play in college just shows what kind of determination she has. She was a huge asset, meant a lot to us and the team. She brought a lot of leadership and played a senior role very, very well. “The players that I’ve coached that have gone on to the next level, they just work hard, and that’s what it takes play at the next level. She’ll go in work her butt off and make good things happen, I have no doubt.” During Williams’ four seasons, the Lady Eagles have a combined 52-12 TVC Hocking record. Williams will be joining a Lady Quakers team that competes in the Ohio Athletic Conference and NCAA Division III. In 2004, the Lady Quakers won the NCAA D-3 championship. Since 1990, the Wilmington College women’s basketball team has been led by head coach Jerry Scheve, who has amassed over 400 career victories. “We are very excited about Madison playing at Wilmington,” said Scheve. “She is a very talented player who has had to overcome a lot of adversity in her career. Her determination to overcome difficulty, and succeed on the court may be her greatest attribute.” Williams won’t be the only TVC Hocking alum playing for the Quakers, as 2017 Southern graduate Faith Teaford will be entering her sophomore season for Wilmington. “She’s really taken me under her wing,” Williams said of her future teammate and former rival. “We’re going to ride up together and work out together in the summer.” In addition to four seasons of basketball, Williams was also on the EHS track and field team for one season. Williams plans to major in early childhood education, with a plan to become an intervention specialist. Alex Hawley can be reached at 740446-2342, ext. 2100.

With two different passions pushing her to succeed, Siders is ready to take the challenge head-on. “I am the fourth of four sisters to attend Rio Grande, so it is nice to have them all around for support. I’d say I have a pretty good understanding of what the university has to offer,” Siders said. “I’ve been working with some special needs kids and that’s why I’m pursuing the major that I am. I enjoy helping others and trying to make a difference because I think it helps me become a better person. “I know that Rio Grande is very respected for its education program and I will be prepared for the future. Getting to play some basketball along the way makes it that much better, even if it is going to take a lot of work. It’s an exciting time and I’m looking forward to it.” Macey currently owns a 3.4 grade-point average at Gallia Academy. She is the daughter of Leighana Siders of Gallipolis, Ohio.

Little helped EHS win three sectional championships in total, with Eastern posting a 14-10 record in her junior season and a 16-8 mark in her senior campaign. For her first three seasons at Eastern, Little was coached by Katie Williams, with Megan Cross leading the Lady Eagles in Morgain’s senior year. “Morgain is great at taking criticism and making immediate changes,” said Williams. “From her freshman year to watching her play as a senior, she changed so much and grew fundamentally so much. She was one of our most reliable players and went from right side to being our power left during her junior year. She’s very smart, very intelligent, a student of the game, because she could recognize things and know where she needed to put the ball to score.” Little was named to the all-TVC Hocking team in her junior season, while being named to the allDistrict 13 honorable mention list as a junior and a senior. “Morgain has an incredible work ethic,” Williams said. “If she wills something to happen, it will happen, athletically and academically. I think that she’ll adapt and learn quickly. We tried to prepare them for a quick game, quick eye sequencing, quick attacks and quick offenses. She knows all of the defenses and knows how to fundamentally play, so she’s hopefully going to be ahead of a lot of people in that aspect.” Little noted that her favorite memories of high school volleyball may have come off the court. “The bus rides were always fun,” Little said. “We all sang in the locker room, listening to music and dancing around to prepare for the game.” Morgain will be joining a Golden Eagles team that competes in the United States Collegiate Athletic Association. Kent State Tuscarawas athletics are directed by Rob Brindley, who’s excited to welcome Morgain to the KSU-T family. “Morgain is going to be a special person for us,” Brindley said. “She comes to us with a great pedigree in volleyball, she loves the game and is a student of the game. She’s also a good student, so she’s going to come right in and make her mark, both academically and athletically.” runs on three hits, while walking one and striking out one hitter.

Jeffers also drove in a run and scored once, while Beattie had one RBI. Morrow, Alec Smith, Carter Smith and Wyatt Wilson each finished with one hit, respectively, to conclude the hit totals for the Big Blacks. Wilson also provided one RBI, while Carter Smith, Austin Richardson and Riley Oliver each scored one run apiece, respectively, to conclude the offensive totals for Point Pleasant. Nathan Cottrill was the winning pitcher of record, as he surrendered six runs on 11 hits, with one walk and three strikeouts in five innings of work. Miller, Isaac McClanahan and Evan McKneely each finished with three hits to lead the Dots at the plate. McKneely also led the way with five RBI, while McClanahan and Miller drove in three runs and two runs, respectively.

Point Pleasant commit- ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio — She’ll still be a Lady Eagle, just with a little more Gold. On May 7 at Eastern High School, senior Morgain Little signed her National Letter of Intent to join the Kent State Tuscarawas Golden Eagles volleyball team. “It’s just something I’ve always liked to do, I play over at my church a lot,” Little said of volleyball. “I would like to be an outside hitter or a middle, that’s what I normally play, so I’d like to continue to do that. When I get a kill is my favorite part. It’ll be my main focus, because I won’t be running track and field like I have in the past.” Little is a four-year letter winner at Eastern, where she’s helped the Lady Eagles to a combined 39-25 record in the Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division in four seasons. In her freshman season, the Lady Eagles were 9-14, but Little helped decrease the loss total in each of the next three seasons.

She will be very impactful on our team and shows a great sense of pride and dedication to sport and academics.” Little — who holds a 4.187 grade point average and is ranked third in the 2018 graduating class — will major in animal science and biology at KSU-T with a plan to be a vet-tech in a zoo, hopefully working with large cats. “There are only three school that have a vettech program in Ohio, and it was the one that was the most welcoming when I went to visit it,” said Little. While at Eastern, Morgain has also been a member of the track and field team, the National Honor Society and the Model United Nations. ted four fielding miscues in the game, while the Dots had two errors.
