Nicholls Reading Council earns Honor Council status

Tue, 10/08/2019 - 9:01am

Nicholls Reading Council, an organization of the Louisiana Reading Association, in affiliation with the Inter-national Literacy Association, was recognized as an Honor Council at the Annual Louisiana Reading Association Awards Banquet in August held in conjunction with the Leadership Training Workshop held in Marksville.
The Louisiana Reading Association Honor Council Program annually recognizes local, student and special interest councils that organize and conduct well-rounded literacy programs.
In order to qualify for Honor Council status, the council must be in good standing according to International Literacy Association Bylaws, and each council vying for Honor Council distinction must complete rigorous requirements in the categories of membership, service to council members, service to local community and partnership with LRA.
The Nicholls Reading Council, under the direction of its President Ronica LaPoint with the support of Secretary Susan Tregle and Treasurer Natalie Duval, earned the designation and was recognized for its many accomplishments.
NRC’s mission is to nurture readers and writers in its communities. With an emphasis on literacy, the organization hosts the annual Young Authors Contest, open to all students in grades K-12.
NRC set up a Literacy Box at Pay It Forward in Morgan City in order to give access to books to a greater amount of local citizens. The Council also supports literacy at birth through their Books and Bibs for Babies project.
Membership in the Nicholls Reading Council is open to all those interested in promoting literacy in our communities.

Park-goers stuck on Disney World’s new aerial cable cars

Tue, 10/08/2019 - 8:58am

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (AP) — Walt Disney World park-goers were stuck for hours aboard the Florida resort’s newly launched aerial cable car system Saturday night, prompting firefighters to lift people from the gondolas to bring them back to the ground. There were no reported injuries.
Riders reported being stuck as long as three hours as rescuers worked their way up to evacuate the Disney Skyliner. Disney officials said in a statement that one of the new cable car system routes “experienced an unexpected downtime.”
“The Skyliner will be closed while we look into the details surrounding this downtime,” the statement said. “We are working with each guest individually regarding impacts to their visit with us.”
It was not immediately clear what caused the incident.
The Skyliner air gondolas opened to visitors last week.
Aaron Murray, who was stuck in a gondola with his girlfriend and six other people, said on Sunday that the long wait and lack of communication was the most frustrating part of the incident.
“They didn’t really say the reason that was causing the delay. The message that just kept coming over again and again is that they were sorry for the delay,” Murray said. “We were getting better information off of Twitter.”
The gondola behind them was assisted first possibly because there was a person that needed help, he said. Murray said he saw a woman being placed on a stretcher.
Murray recently moved to the Orlando area from Missouri and became a Disney pass holder. He was hoping to catch the new “Epcot Forever” nighttime show on Saturday.
“We were trying to celebrate at Epcot, and we ended up seeing ‘Epcot Forever’ but from the sky,” he said. “We could barely see it.”

Widowed mother begins affair with her married brother-in-law

Tue, 10/08/2019 - 8:55am

DEAR ABBY: My father died three years ago. My parents were both close to his younger brother and his wife. For the past two years, I have suspected that my mother and my uncle have been having an affair. They live in different states and text back and forth. She has left her phone open when she has gone places with us, and the comments back and forth are very sexually oriented. I became suspicious when my uncle came to visit and they took a trip together and ended up staying overnight somewhere. A couple of months later, my aunt ...

From the Editor: Winning some, losing some in Morgan City

Mon, 10/07/2019 - 11:51am

bdecker@daily-review.com

As St. Mary struggles to find a new place in a changing economy, we’re bound to lose some and win some.
Morgan City experienced both in the last couple of weeks.
The city lost Charlie’s Lanes, the bowling alley that closed its doors Sept. 28. But Morgan City, and the whole parish stand to benefit because Ochsner Health System is now running Teche Regional Medical Center. The hospital has been renamed Ochsner St. Mary.
We’ve seen business come and, too often, go over the course of these last four rocky years. But the closure of Charlie’s Lanes pulled a little harder at the heartstrings for many people.
The bowling alley was an example of two things that all small towns crave and prize.
It was something to do that didn’t require an hour’s drive in one direction or another. And bowling is a pastime for working people, which matches the character of the people here.
You rent some shoes, bowl a couple of lines and have a couple of beers. That, friends, is an All-American night out.
The other thing Charlie’s Lanes represented is something to do for young people. Activities like that always seems to be in short supply, activities that don’t involve video games, badly planned romantic adventures or something you buy in a sandwich bag.
Charlie’s was home field for bowling teams at Morgan City, Central Catholic and Berwick High schools. And the lanes hosted recent Special Olympics bowling competitions.
“Losing the bowling alley for the youth is what bothers me the most,” owner Charlie Bergeron told The Daily Review reporter Jaclyn Breaux. “For those that can’t play baseball, football, basketball, whatever, they can bowl.
“We had a lot of youth that wanted to bowl. We also had Special Olympics coming in October. We are hoping, for the youth, that someone might walk in tomorrow and want to keep the bowling center.”
The decision to close was hard for Bergeron but “you can’t keep putting good money to bad. That’s what I decided because I did put good money to bad, and I can’t do it anymore.”
So the curtain has come down for now on bowling in Morgan City, which has a history going back at least as far as 1875.
It wasn’t that long ago that some local people feared that Teche Regional might go the same way.
Over the last couple of years, there was a lawsuit when a Hospital Service District No. 2 board member tried to get a seat on Teche Regional’s internal board. Longtime management company LifePoint Health announced it was moving out of Louisiana after what appears to have been years of losses totaling in the millions.
Hospital staff members expressed anxiety over the closed-door deliberations on finding a replacement for LifePoint. The district board’s attorney resigned out of dissatisfaction with other aspects of the search.
St. Mary Parish Hospital District No. 2, which owns the hospital, settled on three potential replacements, and only one of them proved viable. It was Ochsner, which, aside from being an economic force in Louisiana, has a record of making small hospitals perform financially.
Rural hospitals are under a lot of economic pressure, partly because the areas they serve are under economic pressure. As jobs become more scarce in rural areas, the proportion of patients who can write a check for their care or have good insurance shrinks, and the number of patients who rely on government health care programs or can’t afford to pay at all grows.
St. Mary’s experience over the last four years is no exception.
The University of North Carolina has counted 113 rural hospitals that have closed since 2010.
But Ochsner has a network of hospitals across the state, and the network is growing with the company’s recently announced merger with Lafayette General Medical Center, one of the two big player’s in that city’s growing health care market.
If a patient has a problem that Teche Regional — now Ochsner St. Mary — lacks the knowhow to handle, doctors can call on colleagues at other Ochsner hospitals.
Ochsner is also promising to invest in the Morgan City hospital and implement an electronic medical records system that will give patients access to more information about their care. As this is written, I’ve just received three text alerts about a doctor’s appointment I didn’t make, so more information sounds pretty good.
Making Ochsner the operator of the local hospital may have been the most positive outcome St. Mary could have hoped for. And it happened at a time when the parish needs good outcomes.

Louisiana Spotlight: President wades into governor's campaign

Mon, 10/07/2019 - 11:42am
By MELINDA DESLATTE, Associated Press

BATON ROUGE — Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards’ opponents are hoping President Donald Trump may have given one of them just the edge needed to keep Edwards from an outright primary victory in Saturday’s election.
With a few tweets and a planned visit, Trump is urging Republicans to vote against the Deep South’s only Democratic governor, despite Edwards’ repeated efforts to sidestep criticism of the president and talk of his solid rapport with the White House.
Still, Trump posted: “Don’t be fooled, John Bel Edwards will NEVER be for us,” tying Louisiana’s governor to national Democratic Party leaders.
The race’s two main Republican gubernatorial contenders — Ralph Abraham, a third-term congressman from rural northeast Louisiana, and Eddie Rispone, a Baton Rouge businessman and longtime GOP donor — seized on the tweets, even though neither man got a direct presidential endorsement. Trump called them “both Great.”
Abraham and Rispone heralded the president’s decision to weigh in on the race and claimed long-term support of Trump, even as they’ve clashed with each other over whose backing is more sincere.
The tweets — along with a New Orleans area visit from Vice President Mike Pence at a GOP “unity rally” and Trump’s announcement that he intends to hold an election eve event in Louisiana calling for votes against Edwards — spurred political prognosticators and candidates’ supporters trying to calculate whether White House interest will change the trajectory of the Louisiana governor’s race.
Polls show Edwards well ahead of his competitors, with Abraham and Rispone trying to keep him from winning Saturday without a runoff. In Louisiana, all contenders run on the same ballot regardless of party. If Edwards doesn’t top 50% of the vote Saturday, he’ll face a head-to-head Nov. 16 matchup against the second-place finisher.
Baton Rouge-based pollster Bernie Pinsonat didn’t suggest that the Trump and Pence support for either Abraham or Rispone against Edwards upended the race. But Pinsonat said it could be one more factor that makes it harder for a Democrat to get the cross-party support he needs to win statewide in Louisiana.
The activity, Pinsonat said, is “another reminder to them that they need to stay where they are, they’re Republicans, they’re Trump voters and don’t cross the street and vote for a Democrat.”
Edwards has tried to maneuver in a politically tricky space. He doesn’t focus on his party affiliation. He tries to talk solely about state issues without getting bogged down in national political feuds that could be land mines for him in a Southern state where Trump is popular, particularly amid a U.S. House Democrats’ impeachment inquiry.
The president’s criticism of Edwards wasn’t exactly precise.
Beyond linking Edwards to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer, Trump claimed that Second Amendment rights were “at stake” in the Louisiana governor’s race. But Edwards’ pro-gun stances line up with Trump’s positions on the issue, and with the positions espoused by Abraham and Rispone.
Meanwhile, Repub-lican Party leaders haven’t rallied around one specific candidate, keeping the vote splintered and raising questions about whether that keeps the anti-Edwards message fractured.
Pinsonat suggested impeachment is raising Republicans’ attention in Louisiana, just like across the nation, and could drive more GOP voters to lodge a protest against the Democratic Party, by choosing someone who’s not Edwards.
“There’s another threat against the president, and now they’re irritated, they’re agitated. Is it playing a major influence? No, but it’s enough that it’s probably getting them interested in voting more than they would have been,” the pollster said.
After the president’s hit against him on Twitter, Edwards and his campaign team tried to downplay all of it, calling it unsurprising Trump backs members of his own party.
“It was to be expected. The president is tweeting out of Washington. Washington is hyper-partisan. That’s the way they function,” Edwards said after an endorsement event.
Then, the Democratic governor talked of working with lawmakers across the political aisle and his expectation that Louisiana residents “don’t want to go to a situation where everything is strictly partisan.” He noted that he’s been invited to nine meetings at the White House, to discuss infrastructure, opioids and criminal justice. And he wrapped up by saying he intends to “continue to work well” with the president.

Trump to appear in Louisiana

Mon, 10/07/2019 - 11:38am

BATON ROUGE — President Donald Trump is heading to Louisiana ahead of Saturday’s election, for a last-minute rally aimed at peeling support from Gov. John Bel Edwards and keeping the Democratic incumbent from a primary win.
Trump tweeted Sunday about the get-out-the-vote event, saying he’s working to elect “a great new Republican Governor!” He hasn’t endorsed between GOP candidates Ralph Abraham and Eddie Rispone.
The president’s event will be held Friday night in Lake Charles.
