MIDDLEPORT —
Middleport Mayor
Sandy Iannarelli
announced during
the council meeting
on Monday evening
that paving work is
planned for September.
Iannarelli said the
streets that have been
torn up due to the
sewer updates will
be paved starting
in September. The
original plan was to
pave the streets after
the sewer project was
completed, however
Village Administrator Joe Woodall and
Iannarelli were able
to create a plan with
the contractor to
complete some of
the paving after the
sewer project was 50
percent completed.
Council unanimously voted to rescind
the three resolutions
they adopted at the
last meeting about
applying for a paving grant with the
Village of Syracuse.
The resolutions were
incorrect due to an
error and not being
referred to by number. Council adopted
new resolutions in
their place with the
corrections. Council
approved to apply for
the grant requesting
$339,660 in federal
dollars with a match
of $119,340. Fiscal
ofﬁcer Sue Baker
said the village
would not need to
borrow money to
pay for the matching funds. Streets
proposed to be paved
include Beech Street,
Grant Street, General
Hartinger, and Mill
Street.

Trump claims credit for Shell plant
MONACA, Pennsylvania (AP) — President
Donald Trump sought
to take credit Tuesday
for the construction of
a major manufacturing
facility in western Pennsylvania as he tries to
reinvigorate supporters
in the rust belt towns
that sent him to the
White House in 2016.
Trump visited Shell’s
soon-to-be completed
Pennsylvania Petrochemicals Complex,
which will turn the area’s
vast natural gas deposits
into plastics. The facility, which critics claim
will become the largest
air polluter in western
Pennsylvania, is being
built in an area hungry
for investment.
Speaking to a crowd
of thousands of workers
dressed in ﬂuorescent
orange and yellow vests,
Trump said “This would
have never happened
without me and us.” In
fact, Shell announced
its plans to build the
complex in 2012, when
President Barack Obama
was in ofﬁce.
He used the ofﬁcial
White House event as
an opportunity to assail
his would-be Democratic
rivals, saying, “I don’t

think they give a damn
about Western Pennsylvania, do you?”
The focus is part of
a continued push by
the Trump administration to increase the
economy’s dependence
on fossil fuels in deﬁance of increasingly
urgent warnings about
climate change. And it’s
an embrace of plastic at
a time when the world is
sounding alarms over its
impact.
“We don’t need it
from the Middle East
anymore,” Trump said of
oil and natural gas, proclaiming the employees
“the backbone of this
country.”
Trump’s appeals to
blue-collar workers
helped him win Beaver
County, where the plant
is located, by more than
18 percentage points
in 2016, only to have
voters turn to Democrats in 2018’s midterm
elections. In one of a
series of defeats that led
to Republicans’ loss of
the House, voters sent
Democrat Conor Lamb
to Congress after the
prosperity promised by
Trump’s tax cuts failed
to materialize.
Today, Beaver County

is still struggling to
recover from the shuttering of steel plants in
the 1980s that surged
the unemployment
rate to nearly 30%.
Former mill towns
like Aliquippa have
seen their populations
shrink, while Pittsburgh
has lured major tech
companies like Google
and Uber, fueling an
economic renaissance in
a city that reliably votes
Democratic.
Trump claimed that
his steel and aluminum
tariffs have saved the
industries and that they
are now “thriving,”
exaggerating the recovery of the steel industry,
particularly when it
comes to jobs, which
have largely followed
pace with broader economic growth.
The region’s natural
gas deposits had been
seen, for a time, as its
new road to prosperity,
with drilling in the Marcellus Shale reservoir
transforming Pennsylvania into the nation’s
No. 2 natural gas state.
But drops in the price of
oil and gas caused the
initial jobs boom from
fracking to ﬁzzle, leading companies like Shell

to turn instead to plastics and so-called cracker plants — named after
the process in which
molecules are broken
down at high heat, turning fracked ethane gas
into one of the precursors for plastic.
The company was
given massive tax
breaks to build the petrochemicals complex,
along with a $10 million
site development grant,
with local politicians
eager to accommodate a
multibillion-dollar construction project.
But “fracking for plastic” has drawn alarm
from environmentalists
and other activists,
who warn of potential
health and safety risks
to nearby residents and
bemoan the production
of ever more plastic.
There has been growing
alarm over the sheer
quantity of plastic on
the planet, which has
overwhelmed landﬁlls,
inundated bodies of
water and permeated
the deepest reaches of
the ocean. Microplastics
have also been found
in the bodies of birds,
ﬁsh, whales and people,
with the health impacts
largely unknown.

22 states sue Trump administration
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) —
A coalition of 22 Democratic-led
states sued the Trump administration Tuesday over its decision
to ease restrictions on coal-ﬁred
power plants, with California’s
governor saying the president
is trying to rescue an outdated
industry.
In June, the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency eliminated the
agency’s Clean Power Plan and
replaced it with a new rule that
gives states more leeway in deciding upgrades for coal-ﬁred power
plants.
The lawsuit, ﬁled in the U.S.
Court of Appeals for the District
of Columbia Circuit, says the new
rule violates the federal Clean Air
Act because it does not meaningfully replace power plants’ greenhouse gas emissions.
“They’re rolling things back to
an age that no longer exists, trying
to prop up the coal industry,” California Gov. Gavin Newsom said
at a news conference. He said the
lawsuit was not just about Trump
but “our kids and grandkids” who
would continue to be harmed by
coal pollutants.
West Virginia Attorney General
Patrick Morrisey, whose state
produced the second most coal
behind Wyoming in 2017, predicted the lawsuit will ultimately fail
at the U.S. Supreme Court, which
stayed an earlier Obama administration attempt in 2016 at the
request of a competing 27-state
coalition.
He called the lawsuit a “big government ‘power grab’” and argued
that the Democratic attorneys
general “are dead wrong” in their

Funding
From page 1A

Commission emergency
funding to cover the village’s 20 percent costs
of the Middleport Hill
slip. Iannarelli said the
village is still in the
process of acquiring the
properties below the
slip.
At the recommendation of Councilman
Brian Conde, council
voted to allow Conde to
take the next steps in
creating a ‘10-year look
ahead’ for Middleport.
Conde will be working
with Perry Varnadoe,
the Meigs County Economic Development
Director, to secure
funding to help the village create a visual and

interpretation of the Clean Air
Act.
The White House did not immediately respond to a request for
comment. The U.S. EPA said in
a statement that it wouldn’t comment on pending litigation, but
that it “worked diligently to ensure
we produced a solid rule that
we believe will be upheld in the
courts, unlike the previous administration’s Clean Power Plan.”
The lawsuit was ﬁled by
attorneys general in California,
Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware,
Hawaii, Maine, Maryland Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota,
New Jersey, New Mexico, New
York, North Carolina, Oregon,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island,
Vermont, Virginia, Washington,
Wisconsin and the District of
Columbia.
“The science is indisputable;
our climate is changing. Ice caps
are melting. Sea levels are rising.
Weather is becoming more and
more extreme,” New York Attorney General Letitia James, who
is leading the coalition, said in a
statement. “Rather than staying
the course with policies aimed at
ﬁxing the problem and protecting
people’s health, safety, and the
environment, the Trump Administration repealed the Clean Power
Plan and replaced it with this
‘Dirty Power’ rule.”
The states were joined by six
local governments: Boulder, Colorado; Chicago, Los Angeles, New
York City, Philadelphia and South
Miami, Florida.
The EPA’s analysis of the new
rules predicts an extra 300 to
1,500 people will die each year

a plan for what they
want to village to be in
10 years.
Councilmember Ben
Reed said he wants to
pull resources from
neighboring counties
and other villages to
work together to create
a better Southeastern
Ohio as a whole. Reed
said he believes Middleport has the people to
make something great,
but some of the issues
are more than Middleport, but Southeastern
Ohio as a whole. Iannarelli said Middleport
councils have created
this before, but nobody
followed through with
the plans.
The village is accepting sealed bids for
the chain-linked fence
at General Hartinger
Park. The fence must

by 2030 because of additional air
pollution from the power grid.
But EPA Administrator Andrew
Wheeler in June said Americans
want “reliable energy that they can
afford,” adding he expected more
coal plans to open as a result.
“It’s more of a fossil fuel protection plan,” California Attorney
General Xavier Becerra said.
It would replace the Clean
Power Plan, which would require
cutting emissions fossil fuel-burning power plants. Becerra said that
was expected to eliminate as much
climate change pollution as is
emitted by more than 160 million
cars a year, the equivalent of 70
percent of the nation’s passenger
cars, and was projected to prevent
up to 3,600 additional deaths
annually.
Newsom and James said states’
existing efforts to reduce greenhouse gases are beginning to work
while creating green jobs and
vibrant economies.
In the Northeast, 10 states
including New York formed the
Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative that has reduced power plant
emissions by more than 50 percent.
California’s power grid used
more energy from non-greenhouse
gas sources like wind and solar
power in 2017 than from electricity generated by fossil fuels for
the ﬁrst time since the California
Air Resources Board began keeping track. The board also found
that pollution from transportation
did not rise as fast as in previous
years, and reported that 2017 was
the second straight year emissions
fell below the state’s 2020 target.

buyer. The fence is six
feet high and 320 feet
long with two gates.
The second piece is
four feet high and 80
feet long. Bids can be
submitted to the water
office until Aug. 27 at
4 p.m.
Council discussed the
possibility of increasing employees vacation
time to 40 hours per
year. Woodall suggested
the increase to Baker.
Council members asked
Baker and Woodall to
present the proposal to
answer questions at the
next meeting.
In her report to council, Mayor Sandy Iannarelli said the Veterans
Affairs mobile unit will
be at the lot of the old
police department in
Middleport on Oct. 1

from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

OSU’s Landers shines light on mental health struggles

Marvin Fong | The Plain Dealer via AP

Ohio State defensive lineman Robert Landers (67) celebrates his sack on
Michigan quarterback Shea Patterson (2) in the first half Nov. 24, 2018, in
Columbus, Ohio. Robert Landers struggles with mental illness, and he doesn’t
care who knows it. In fact, he wants more people to know it. He took to Twitter
in the aftermath of the mass shooting in his hometown of Dayton to make his
struggle public, understanding that survivors of the shooting and others may
have issues to contend with.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) —
Ohio State defensive tackle
Robert Landers struggles with
mental illness, and he doesn’t
care who knows it.
In fact, he wants more people
to be aware of it. The mass
shooting in his hometown
of Dayton, Ohio, rattled him
enough that he decided it was
time to speak out.
The gregarious senior known
as “BB” said he has suffered
bouts of anxiety and depression since his father was shot
to death and he was forced to
become the man of the house at
age 10. It wasn’t until he got to
Ohio State that he was mature
enough to recognize what was
happening and to stop regarding it as a weakness.
“God has continued to bless
me and put me in certain posi-

tions, but it’s still an uphill
battle on a day-to-day basis,”
Landers said in a video he
tweeted after the Dayton shootings. The video , in which he
also offers condolences to the
victims’ families, has been
viewed more than 130,000
times.
For the 22-year-old Landers,
the shooting came close to
home.
His brother Trey, a University of Dayton basketball player,
and three of their cousins were
in an Oregon District bar in the
early morning hours of Aug. 3
when the shooting started right
outside. Ten people were killed,
including the shooter, and 27
were injured, though Landers’
family members were unhurt.
Given his own past, Landers
said he understands survivors

and others may have mental
health issues to contend with
in the aftermath.
“It all, to me, circles back to
mental health,” he said in the
video. “You got so many people
in the world today struggling
with this disease … that a lot
of people don’t want to talk
about. It’s a real thing, it really
does affect people in a negative
way, and a lot of people don’t
know how to handle it.”
It’s not typical for a 6-foot-1,
285-pound battering ram of a
nose tackle to talk about his
innermost feelings, fears and
weaknesses. That’s exactly
the point. He hopes airing his
struggles will take away some
of the stigma and more people
who need it will seek help.

The Raiders were led by Alex Euton with a 65,
followed by Jordan Lambert with a 68. Dalton
Mershon’s 69 and Blaine Cline’s 71 rounded out
the RVHS tally.
Whit Byrd was match medalist and led the

Bulldogs with a 43, Brayden Bush led the Golden
Rockets with a 46, Brock Harmon led the Vikings
with a 49, while Caitlyn Hall paced NYHS with a

Red River rematch
could happen again in
Big 12 with Texas-OU
By Stephen Hawking
Associated Press

Red River rivals Oklahoma and Texas met twice
last season for the ﬁrst time in 115 years, when
the Sooners won their fourth consecutive Big
12 championship by avenging their only regularseason loss.
Oklahoma now has another transfer quarterback
— former national championship winner Jalen
Hurts — after their transfer QBs the past two
seasons both were Heisman Trophy winners and
No. 1 overall NFL draft picks, all since Lincoln
Riley became head coach. The Longhorns and
hometown quarterback Sam Ehlinger are coming
off their ﬁrst 10-win season since 2009, a quick
turnaround under third-year coach Tom Herman.
So it really wouldn’t be that much of a surprise if
they again get to play a second game in the same
season outside their traditional October game at
the State Fair of Texas.
Especially in a season following the biggest
coaching turnover ever in the Big 12 with four
new coaches, including two who have won national championships. Les Miles takes over at Kansas

West Virginia’s Leddie Brown (4) slips through a pack of Penguins, during the Mountaineers’ home-opening victory on Sept. 8, 2018.

Brown’s task is to keep WVU rolling
MORGANTOWN,
W.Va. (AP) — New
coach Neal Brown has
a tall task as he tries to
prevent West Virginia’s
perennially proliﬁc
offense from turning
pathetic.
Brown was hired from
Troy in January to take
over for the departed
Dana Holgorsen and
inherited a roster lacking proven stars.
Gone is record-setter
Will Grier and four of
the top ﬁve wide receivers from last season.
Brown still must decide
on a starting quarterback. The defense was
decimated by defections
a few months into his
tenure.
“From an install
standpoint, we’re still
throwing a lot at them,”
Brown said.
There are plenty of
questions, including how
to come close to averaging last year’s 512 yards
of offense, which ranked
eighth in the nation and
second in the Big 12
behind Oklahoma.
Throughout the summer the easygoing
Brown has hosted players by position at his
house for dinner. There
have been team-bonding
competitions in cornhole, basketball and ax

throwing.
The hashtag motto for
this year’s team is “Trust
The Climb,” one that
could take some time.
“We’re going to be
a young football team
and I think our fan base
understands that and
there’s going to be some
patience,” Brown said.
But he’s been concerned at times about
his players’ attitudes
early in camp.
“If you do little things
right and you prepare
and you work hard,
good things are going to
happen,” he said. “But
I think the opposite is
also true. If you’re not
mentally prepared, if
you’re not taking care of
your body, if you’re not
focused on details … you
will be exposed.”
Here’s some other
things to know as West
Virginia prepares for its
Aug. 31 season opener
at home against FCS
James Madison:
Brown’s pedigree
Brown went 35-16 in
four years at Troy. Like
Holgorsen, Brown is a
descendant of the passhappy Air Raid offense
tree that stems from former Kentucky coach Hal
Mumme and Washington
State’s Mike Leach.

Brown was quarterbacks
coach at Texas Tech from
2010 to 2012. He then
was offensive coordinator at Kentucky for two
years before being hired
at Troy as one of the
youngest head coaches in
the FBS.
QB race
Oklahoma graduate
transfer Austin Kendall
learned Brown’s system
in spring practice, but the
coach has yet to anoint
Grier’s replacement.
Kendall attempted 39
passes behind two Heisman Trophy winners
over two seasons. He’s
up against 6-foot-6 Jack
Allison, a junior who
started last year’s bowl
game after Grier sat out
to focus on the NFL draft,
and redshirt freshman
Trey Lowe. Jarret Doege
transferred from Bowling
Green this spring and is
seeking to become eligible immediately.
Safety quandary
Safeties Kenny Robinson and Derrek Pitts left
the team in the spring.
Robinson started 20
games in two seasons,
had a team-high four
interceptions and was
second in tackles with
77 as a sophomore. The
Mountaineers also lost

four-year starter Dravon
Askew-Henry. Helping ﬁll
the gap will be JoVanni
Stewart, a linebacker last
year, and Josh Norwood,
a 2018 starter at cornerback. Others who could
get signiﬁcant playing

Thomas sprained neck in scary moment at practice
BEREA, Ohio (AP) —
Browns defensive end Chad
Thomas sustained a sprained
neck but avoided a more
serious injury during a scary
moment at training camp.
Thomas was immobilized
on the ﬁeld and taken by
ambulance to University Hospitals.
A team spokesman said
Thomas, a third-round pick in
2018, was back at the Browns’
facility Monday evening. His
return to practice will be evaluated on a day-to-day basis.
Thomas appeared to absorb
a blow to his right shoulder
and head area during a play.
The 6-foot-5, 280-pounder
stood up but then went to the
ground, where he was treated
by Browns medical personnel.
As his teammates and fans
at camp watched somberly,
Thomas was put on a backboard and carted away.
“It’s never a moment at any

Landry said. “Chad’s in our
prayers.”
Thomas appeared in four
games for the Browns last
season. He’s expected to be
in Cleveland’s defensive line
rotation this season.
Kitchens said Thomas’ injury was a reminder of football’s
physical nature.
“In our game, that’s reality,”
he said. “Sometimes that happens during the course of a
game and mentally we’ve got
to keep moving forward. At
the end of the day, this is still
practice, so you don’t want
to see your teammate laying
there.

Guard Joel Bitonio said he
was encouraged to see Thomas get up after the play.
“We kind of saw him moving around out there, so
we were hoping it wasn’t

“But anytime they bring the
stretch board out and put
someone down, it’s great to
hear that he’s moving and
they’re just doing extra tests
now to make sure everything
is OK.”
Landry said it’s imperative
to not think about the possibility of getting hurt.
“Is it something that we
think about all the time? No,”
he said. “Obviously we know
it happens but we never really

Suddenly only Oklahoma State’s Mike Gundy

“Phenomenal job, and

“Not glad from a competitive standpoint, but
he’s a heck of a coach.
He’s done a great job.
His players play their
tails off, made a big

“When I ﬁrst got to

Campbell said. “Now

Wells left his alma mater

Oklahoma is the only

“We haven’t played a

said.
The Sooners, whose
last national title was
2000, have like defending

Bristol needs
‘cage rattling’ to
spark playoff push
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — It was 20 years ago
when Dale Earnhardt Sr. spun Terry Labonte to win a
Saturday night race at Bristol Motor Speedway.
Earnhardt was chasing the trophy — the playoffs
didn’t exist, no stages, no bonus points — and The
Intimidator simply wanted the victory. Labonte had
squeezed past Earnhardt to momentarily take the lead
and Earnhardt immediately spun him out of his way.
The crowd at the packed Bristol bullring jeered
Earnhardt’s aggressive move, and the seven-time
champion dismissed the criticism.
“Didn’t mean to really turn him around, meant to
rattle his cage, though,” said an unapologetic Earnhardt.
Two decades later, there is so much more on the
line as NASCAR returns to Bristol on the anniversary
of one of the most famous ﬁnishes in series history.
There are only three races left to make the playoffs
and only nine drivers have locked in their slots. Jimmie Johnson is on the outside of the top 16, desperately trying to work his way into a chance to race for a
record eighth championship.
As NASCAR looks back — fondly, no doubt — on
that hot summer night showdown between a pair of
Hall of Famers, perhaps there needs to be a whole lot
more cage rattling at this stage of the season.
Bristol, particularly its August race around the
0.533-mile concrete, gladiator-style oval, was always
one of the toughest tickets in NASCAR and boasted
55 consecutive sellouts from 1982 through 2010. The
track accommodated 30,000 fans at the start of the
streak, but expanded as most NASCAR promoters did
during the 1990s to an obese 161,000 seats because
fans were pouring through the gates in record numbers at venues across the country.
When the 2008 economic crisis began, and fans
were no longer willing to pay inﬂated prices for hotels
along the Tennessee/Virginia line, the crowd began
to dwindle. The sellout streak ended two years later,
Bristol’s great Coliseum has removed roughly 20,000
seats since and the track didn’t even bother selling
tickets in the turns for the spring race in April. In a
cruel twist, the Darrell Waltrip grandstand was closed
on the same weekend the 12-time Bristol winner
announced his retirement as Fox Sports’ longtime
analyst.
The cost of a weekend at Bristol — the get-in price
on the track website Monday was $80 and lodging is
typically $300 or more per night at nearby motels —
has certainly harmed attendance for the former bucket list sporting event at a track that marketed itself
as the site of a raging tempest where drivers could
lose their cool and explode in anger. Jeff Gordon once
shoved Matt Kenseth, Tony Stewart threw a helmet,
middle ﬁngers are the common form of communication and tempers are typically at the boiling point.

That doesn’t include the
Jan. 24 game in Paris
between Milwaukee and
Charlotte.

Four-in-fives
The stretches of four
games in ﬁve days might
be gone for good. This
will be the third consecutive season where no
team gets tasked with
handling one of those.
No team will play eight
games in 12 days, either
— though there are 19
instances of teams having to play ﬁve times in
a span of seven days.
Closing night
The regular season
ends with 13 games on
April 15. Miami, Detroit,
Denver and Utah all
ﬁnish on April 14. The
playoffs start April 18.

Indians’ Puig drops appeal of
3-game suspension for brawl
CLEVELAND (AP) — Indians outﬁelder Yasiel
Puig has dropped the appeal for his three-game suspension for his involvement in a brawl when he was
with Cincinnati.
Puig will begin serving his ban Monday night
when the Indians, who have climbed back into a tie
for ﬁrst in the AL Central, open a three-game series
against Boston.

Puig was disciplined for his involvement in the
latest benches-clearing incident between the Reds
and Pittsburgh Pirates on July 30. The fracas began
shortly after Puig was dealt to the Indians as part
of a three-team trade that sent right-hander Trevor
Bauer from Cleveland to Cincinnati.
The animated 28-year-old Puig is batting .357
with one homer and six RBIs in 11 games for Cleveland. He has given the Indians an infusion of power
and energy, helping their surge to catch the Minnesota Twins.
Puig is eligible for free agency after the World Series.

Michigan State agrees to protect patients in deal with feds
LANSING, Mich.
(AP) — Michigan State
University has agreed to
better protect patients
from sexual assaults,
including following a
chaperone requirement
for sensitive medical
exams, to resolve a federal civil-rights investigation into Larry Nassar’s
abuse of young gymnasts
and other athletes under
the guise of medical
treatment.
The three-year
agreement announced
Monday is the ﬁrst one
struck under a section of
the Affordable Care Act
that prohibits discrimination in certain health
care programs or activi-

ties, said Roger Severino, director of the U.S.
Department of Health
and Human Services’
Ofﬁce for Civil Rights.
The deal covers not only
students under Title IX
but also patients who are
not students.
The university and
two associated entities
— MSU HealthTeam
and MSU Health Care
Inc. — will require that
a second health team
member be present at
sensitive medical exams.
The school previously
instituted a chaperone
requirement in 2017 in
the wake of the scandal
involving its former
sports doctor, Nas-

When sensitive exams
are conducted, patients
will be given an appropriate gown, privacy
to dress and undress,
and sensitive draping

the health entities also
will revise their nondiscrimination notices
and sexual misconduct
policies, improve their
processes for investigating and resolving complaints, conduct all-staff

sar, and his abuse of
hundreds of girls and
women, but Severino
said it now must comply
or face consequences.
“It’s one thing for an
institution that has failed
repeatedly to police itself
to say that they’re going
to do better this time
compared to the federal government (which
has) the ability to strip
federal funds in case
of repeated noncompliance,” Severino said.
He added that federal
ofﬁcials will be monitoring closely, which
is a key difference. He
said the Ofﬁce for Civil
Rights opened the probe
on its own about eight

versity with their health

in a statement.
Separate investigations of Michigan State’s
handling of complaints
against Nassar, which
the U.S. Department of
Education is leading,
are expected to end “in
the near future,” said
spokeswoman Liz Hill.
Nassar is effectively
serving life in prison for
possessing child pornography and molesting
young athletes, sometimes when parents were
present. He also worked
at USA Gymnastics,
which trains Olympians
and is the sport’s governing body.
