Work continuing on new WVa bridge on I-64 CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Work continues this week on a new Interstate 64 bridge in West Virginia, the state Department of Transportation said. Contractors will continue hoisting bridge girders into place over West Virginia Highway 817. They began the work last Monday, hoisting one girder from a barge in the Kanawha River and another from the western shore and bolting them together in midair, the department said. The girders will be lifted above Highway 817, and traffic will be disrupted at times during the week. The new Donald M.

It invalidated the first two sets of maps as unconstitutionally gerrymandered to unduly favor Republicans, who drew the maps. The unwavering Republican line that has been approving map after map began to falter last week, with Republican Auditor Keith Faber voting no, along with commission Democrats, and expressing concerns over the latest lines’ constitutionality.

Youngkin requested MEANWHILE, IN OHIO Justices weigh EPA power to curb carbon emissions A new policy to regulate carbon productions from power plants is not expected before the end of the year, Elizabeth Prelogar, Biden’s top Supreme Court lawyer, told the justices Monday. But the court did not appear interested in Prelogar’s argument that it should dismiss the case because there is no current EPA plan in place to deal with carbon output from power plants. Environmental groups have worried that the court could preemptively undermine whatever plan Biden’s team develops to address power plant emissions. A broad ruling by the court also could weaken regulatory efforts that extend well beyond the environment, including consumer protections, workplace safety and public health. Several conservative justices have criticized what they see as the unchecked power of federal agencies. Those concerns were evident in the court’s orders throwing out two Biden administration policies aimed at reducing the spread of COVID-19. Last summer, the court’s 6-3 conservative majority ended a pause on evictions over unpaid rent. In January, the same six justices blocked a requirement that workers at large employers be vaccinated or test regularly and wear a mask on the job. West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey, speaking at a recent event in Washington, cast the power plant case as about who should make the rules. “Should it be unelected bureaucrats, or should it be the people’s representatives in Congress?” Morrisey said. West Virginia is leading the states opposed to broad EPA authority. But David Doniger, a climate change expert with the Natural Resources Defense Council, said the Supreme Court’s con- ted maps they contend would be constitutional. Ohio voters have given the high court original and exclusive jurisdiction over commissionpassed maps, while, in an as-yet-never-litigated conundrum, also having precluded the court from forcing a map to be used that did not receive commission approval.

The justices heard more than two hours of arguments over whether to limit the EPA’s power to regulate carbon dioxide emissions from electric utilities on the same day a U.N. science report painted a dire picture of global climate change. A major report from a U.N. panel of hundreds of scientists detailed how climate change — caused by the burning of coal, oil and natural gas — is already taking a deadly toll and will get worse. Just how much worse depends on how quickly the world cuts is carbon emissions, with coal being the biggest polluter, the report said. At the high court, the justices took up an appeal from 19 mostly Republican-led states and coal companies that contend the EPA has only narrow authority to regulate carbon output. Some conservative justices appeared skeptical of broad EPA authority over carbon dioxide emissions, but there could be obstacles to issuing a major ruling. Among these are arguments from power plant operators serving 40 million people that call on the court to maintain the companies’ flexibility to reduce emissions while maintaining reliable service. President Joe Biden has pledged to cut greenhouse gas emissions in half by the end of the decade, but he has so far failed to win congressional approval of climate change proposals contained in his Build Back Better plan. requirements. Petitioners in the case include the ACLU of Ohio, League of Women Voters of Ohio, Common Cause, CAIR-Ohio and the National Democratic Redistricting Committee led by former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder.

RedStorm drops ranked foes at NFCA Leadoff Classic By Randy Payton For Ohio Valley Publishing COLUMBUS, Ga. — The University of Rio Grande picked up a pair of wins over nationallyranked foes on Friday afternoon as part of the National Fastpitch Coaches Association’s (NFCA) Leadoff Classic at South Commons Park. The RedStorm, who were among the teams receiving votes in the NAIA Preseason Coaches’ Top 25, knocked off 16th-ranked and previouslyunbeaten William Carey (Miss.) University, 3-2, in their opening contest before upending TruettMcConnell (Ga.) University — like Rio, a team receiving votes in the coaches’ poll — 7-2. The sweep left Rio Grande at 5-2 on the season. In game one, the Crusaders — who began the day at 10-0, with six straight mercy-rule victories — pushed across a first inning run, but the RedStorm scored twice in the bottom of the frame and never trailed again. Rio’s first inning markers came when senior Zoe Doll’s (Minford, OH) routine two-out flyball to right was dropped for an error, with senior Shelby Schmitt (Fairfield, OH) and sophomore Caitlyn Brisker (Oak Hill, OH) racing home. The RedStorm lead reached 3-1 when Doll led off the bottom of the fourth with an inside-thepark home run to right field, but William Carey got the run back in the sixth thanks to a pair of two-out singles and an error. Rio Grande senior starter Raelynn Hastings (Commercial Point, OH) escaped any further damage in the frame by inducing Hannah Gasaway into an inning-ending flyout. She then retired the side in order in the seventh to seal the win. Schmitt had two hits and senior Kenzie Cremeens (Ironton, OH) added a double in the winning effort.

Sheridan surges past Blue Devils, 58-48 By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com LONDONDERRY, Ohio — In the end, the small things really added up. The Gallia Academy boys basketball dominated the boards, but sixth seeded Sheridan shot 49 percent from the field and led the final 28:58 of regulation on Saturday night during a 58-48 decision in a Division II Southeast 2 district semifinal contest at Larry Jordan Gymnasium on the campus of Southeastern High School. The third seeded Blue Devils (15-8) never trailed in the opening three minutes after building leads of 2-0, 4-2 and 6-4, but the visiting Generals (19-6) answered with an old-fashioned 3-point play from Kyle Peters — resulting a permanent lead of 7-6 with 4:58 remaining in the opening canto. SHS went on to close out the first period with an 8-6 run for a 15-12 advantage … and Gallia Academy was ultimately never closer the rest of the way. The Blue and White — who outrebounded Sheridan by a sizable 41-22 overall margin, including a 22-3 edge on the offensive glass — struggled with all of those extra chances as the hosts produced 18 more shot attempts by night’s end, but made just 30 percent of their total chances. Turnovers also played a factor as GAHS committed nine of its gamehigh 16 turnovers in the second half, while the Red and Gray had only nine miscues in the triumph. The Blue Devils missed their first six shot attempts of the second stanza, and a Kaelan Pulliam dunk at the 3:09 mark capped an 8-2 run that gave SHS its largest lead of the first half at 23-14. Carson Call answered with the only GAHS trifecta on the night with 2:32 remaining, then an Isaac Clary basket trimmed the deficit back down to 23-19 with 1:42 left. Pulliam, however, answered with a trifecta with 1:16 to go and eventually allowed the Generals to secure a 26-19 advantage headed into the break. A Clary basket at the 4:38 mark of the third capped a 5-2 run and closed the gap back down to 28-24, but backto-back buckets by Caden Sheridan gave the guests the first of two 8-point leads in the frame with 3:49 left. Both teams Gallia Academy defenders Zane Loveday (35) and Isaac Clary, right, converge on Sheridan’s Kyle Peters (23) during the first half of Saturday night’s Division II district semifinal contest at Southeastern High School in Londonderry, Ohio. traded a field goal the rest of the way, allowing Sheridan to take a 34-26 edge into the finale. Zane Loveday converted consecutive baskets for GAHS to whittle the deficit down to 34-30 with 6:28 remaining, but the hosts were never closer. Sheridan countered with 10 straight points over the next 2:35 and secured its largest lead of the game at 44-30 following a runout basket by Reed Coconis with 3:52 remaining. The Blue Devils were never closer than seven points the rest of the way as a Clary basket with 1:17 left made it a 53-46 contest.

JUPITER, Fla. — Commissioner Rob Manfred and top deputy Dan Halem met with players Monday on the final day of negotiations to end the lockout before Major League Baseball’s deadline to salvage a March 31 start to the regular season and a 162game schedule. Emotions became more heated as the sides pressed for each other’s bottom line for a deal. Philadelphia star Bryce Harper posted a photo on Instagram altered to show him in a Japanese baseball uniform with the words: “Yomiuri Giants you up? Got some time to kill.” Yankees pitcher Jameson Taillon, who attended negotiations last week, tweeted: “Players are used to their `threats.’ Owners actions have made it clear all along that they have a set # of games where they still make profits/ get TV money. They don’t want to play. It’s sad that these are the guys who drive the direction and `future’ of our amazing sport.” The sides agreed to arrive at Roger Dean Stadium at 10 a.m., three hours earlier than usual. It was the eighth straight day of talks at the vacant spring training home of the Miami Marlins and St. Louis Cardinals. Halem and Executive Vice President Morgan Sword met with the union for about 45 minutes in the day’s first session, which ended about noon. In mid-afternoon, Manfred and Halem met with the players for about 35 minutes. The sides planned at least one more meeting. Mets pitcher Max Scherzer and free agent reliever Andrew Miler were the only players on hand. The lockout was in its 89th day. MLB has not fixed an exact time to the deadline, which leads to the possibility of bargaining sessions stretching into the wee hours if both sides see a deal within reach. Monday was picked as a deadline because Manfred says at least 28 days of training are needed before the season starts. The union has not said whether it agrees, and baseball has shortened spring training to as few as three weeks in the past. Baseball’s ninth work stoppage, its first since 1995, started Dec. 2. Spring training games were to have begun Saturday and already have been canceled through March 7. Players and owners did not meet directly Sunday. �NEWS/CLASSIFIEDS Ohio Valley Publishing Tuesday, March 1, 2022 7 Poll: Pandemic fears are fading along with omicron By Michael Rubinkam and Hannah Fingerhut In Lincoln, Nebraska, trucking dispatcher Erica Associated Press Martinez said she let down her guard last sumOmicron is fading away, mer, before the deadly delta variant took hold, and so are Americans’ worries about COVID-19. then “stopped doing a lot of the social stuff” when As coronavirus pancases spiked again during demic case numbers, successive waves of delta hospitalizations and deaths continue to plum- and omicron.

Still, roughly two-thirds of vaccinated Americans say they are at least somewhat worried about COVID-19 infection. About 4 in 10 unvaccinated Americans say the same. Amie Adkins, of Gassaway, West Virginia, who is unvaccinated, said she was “surrounded” by omicron but never worried about getting it, counting on a mask and good hygiene to protect herself. Data shows unvaccinated people are at much higher risk for serious illness and death than people who got the shot. “Even after all that, if we’re going to get something, we’re going to get it, and there’s nothing we can do about. So there’s no use worrying about it,” said Adkins, a 43-year-old stay-at-home mom. Public support for masking requirements also has ticked down, though Americans are still more likely to favor than oppose requiring masks in public, 50% to 28%, in the new poll. In August 2021, 55% were in favor. Support was much higher, at roughly three-quarters of the public, in 2020. OH-70272850 LEGAL NOTICE Sale of Real Estate Gallia County Foreclosure Auction.
