MIDDLEPORT — A public meeting
will be held in Middleport to discuss
Main Street’s road resurfacing after
the completion of the sewer project.
Set for 6 p.m. on Monday, Jan. 8
at village hall, the discussion will
include the pros and cons of using
asphalt rather than brick to pave
Main Street after completion of the
sewer project.
Village Administrator Joe Woodall
has mentioned the beneﬁts of using
asphalt in the last two Middleport Village Council meetings. He commented the use of asphalt would be much
cheaper and that the village could
possibly utilize the leftover funds to
pave other streets in Middleport.

However, Mayor Sandy Iannarelli
and council members discussed with
Woodall that in the original approved
ordinance for the sewer project
it states that the roads would be
replaced exactly as they were before
the start of project.
At the last meeting on Dec. 11,
2017, Iannarelli insisted the residents
of the village needed to be involved
with the decision of resurfacing Main
Street. She encourages Middleport
residents to come to the meeting and
give their input.
Iannarelli added that if anyone is
unable to make it to the public meeting, they may contact her personally
at (740) 541-0735 to discuss the issue.

Publishing.

arrested on those warrants and incarcerated
until he could appear in
court. A female stated
that the alleged paraphernalia found in the car was
her’s, according to the
sheriff’s ofﬁce. The item

Appeals panel rules 2-1 backing gun ban
home and family.”
Stimmel appealed unsuccessfully to the FBI and then ﬁled a
challenge to the U.S. statute on
domestic violence and guns, saying it unconstitutionally undercuts his Second Amendment right
to keep and bear arms and his
right to equal protection under
the law. He has had no other conviction but contends he has little
chance of getting a pardon or otherwise having his misdemeanor
conviction set aside.
However, Judge Richard Allen
Grifﬁn, joined by Judge Helene
White, said federal courts have
consistently upheld the gun ban
for misdemeanor domestic violence convicts, who were included
in a 1996 law intended to disarm
domestic abusers who weren’t

CINCINNATI (AP) — A
divided federal appeals court
panel on Thursday upheld the
U.S. ban on guns for people convicted of misdemeanor domestic
violence, even decades after the
offense.
The 6th U.S. Circuit Court
of Appeals judges voted 2-1 to
afﬁrm a lower court’s dismissal
of the challenge to by an Ohio
man who pleaded no contest
in 1997 to a domestic violence
charge for “knowingly causing
or attempting to cause harm” to
his then-wife.
The man, Terry Stimmel, was
blocked in 2002 from buying a
gun at a Walmart store after a
background check showed his
domestic violence record. He said
he wanted the gun to “defend his

continued risks of violence to

“The record contains sufﬁcient
evidence to reasonably conclude
that disarming domestic violence
(misdemeanor convicts) is substantially related to the government’s compelling interest of
preventing gun violence, and particularly, domestic gun violence,”
Grifﬁn wrote.
Judge Danny Boggs dissented,
saying the government offered,
“at best, minimal evidence” that
someone with no other domestic
violence history presents a heightened risk decades later.
“It has yet to justify what is,
effectively, a lifetime ban on a
fundamental constitutional right,”
Boggs wrote.

Officer says he felt
‘imminent threat’
in Walmart shooting
DAYTON, Ohio (AP)
— A white Ohio police
ofﬁcer who fatally shot a
black man in a Walmart
store says he believed
he faced an “imminent
threat,” although he
acknowledges he never
saw the man point what
turned out to be an air
riﬂe or threaten anyone.
Beavercreek ofﬁcer
police ofﬁcer Sean
Williams made his
statements during a
deposition in a federal
lawsuit ﬁled by the family of John Crawford III.
Crawford, 22, was killed
Aug. 5, 2014, after police
responded to a 911 call
about someone waving a
riﬂe in a store in Beavercreek, a Dayton suburb.
The Dayton Daily News
reports in Thursday editions that depositions
show police relied on the
lone 911 caller, who said
a man had a riﬂe.
The civil case is scheduled for trial next month.
Crawford’s relatives sued
Beavercreek police and
Arkansas-based Walmart,
alleging negligence and
civil rights violations.
Police and Walmart have
denied the allegations.

police shootings of black
men across the United
States that have raised
attention during the last
four years to how police
deal with black people.
A special grand jury and
then a federal investigation concluded without
any charges in Crawford’s
death.
Ofﬁcer Williams and
police Sgt. David Darkow have said Crawford
refused to respond to
commands. The Daily
News says both ofﬁcers
said during their civil
depositions that they
didn’t realize Crawford
was talking on his cellphone and didn’t know if
he heard their commands.
Williams said he didn’t
observe anyone running,
screaming or in pain and
didn’t hear or smell gunﬁre. But he and Darkow
both said there was a perceived threat.
“When I ﬁrst observed
John Crawford … he had
a riﬂe in hand about to
raise it up,” Williams
said. “He had it in a low
ready position and he was
turning toward us with
the riﬂe, which, at the
very least, is an imminent
threat to me, which is
why I ﬁred the rounds.”

Merchandise featuring Fiona the hippo brings in big bucks
CINCINNATI (AP) — Merchandise inspired by Ohio’s
famous baby hippo, Fiona, has
returned nearly half a million
dollars to the Cincinnati Zoo.
The Cincinnati Enquirer

reports the zoo has collected
about $480,000 in sales from
businesses with merchandising agreements. Products
include everything from clothing and ornaments to beer

and ice cream.
The zoo says it isn’t keeping track of cash the hippothemed products are turning
over. But zoo spokeswoman
Michelle Curley says more than

$200,000 of the money was
used for Fiona’s neonatal care.
Curley says the remainder is
helping with the care, feeding
and enrichment of all the zoo’s
hippos.

Massive storm roars into East Coast
Record cold to follow
By Susan Haigh
and Dave Collins
Associated Press

HARTFORD, Conn.
— A massive winter
storm roared into the
East Coast on Thursday,
threatening to dump as
much as 18 inches of
snow from the Carolinas
to Maine and unleashing
hurricane-force winds
and ﬂooding that closed
schools and ofﬁces and
halted transportation
systems.
Forecasters expected
the storm to be followed immediately by
a blast of face-stinging
cold air that could
break records in more
than two dozen cities
and bring wind chills
as low as minus 40
degrees this weekend.
Blizzard warnings and
states of emergency were
in wide effect, and wind
gusts hit more than 70
mph (113 kph) in some
places. Eastern Massachusetts and most of
Rhode Island braced for
as much as 3 inches of
snow per hour.
Four people were
killed in North and
South Carolina after
their vehicles ran off
snow-covered roads,
authorities said. Another
fatality was reported
near Philadelphia when
a car could not stop at
the bottom of a steep,
snow-covered hill and
slammed into a commuter train. A passenger
in the vehicle was killed.
No one on the train was
hurt.
In New Jersey, Orlando Igmat’s car got stuck
in a snowbank along the
Garden State Parkway in
Tinton Falls as he drove
to work at Verizon. He
waited a half hour for
a tow truck to pull him
out.
“I didn’t expect it (the
storm) was going to be a
heavy one. That’s why I
went to work today. I’m

tonight,” he said.

Serving God with faithfulness and intentionality
“Father, I don’t know
what I’m doing.”
And that’s the beginning of my column. Nearly every week, I struggle
to ﬁnd something worth
sharing with you. Part of
the problem comes from
a lack of prayerful intention.
I typically write on
Tuesdays. Then, I forget
about it. When Friday
comes, I often forget that
it’s even in the newspaper. Because I only consider my column one out
of seven days, I’m struggling to ﬁnd the right
words to share.
Why do I only consider
my column one out of
seven days? The answer
is simple: I compromise
the importance it holds.
I regularly get complimented on my weekly column. I’m amazed by the
opportunity of getting to

ence of hundreds. When
I started writing blogs in
2014, I never expected
this to happen. God continues to blow my mind
through this platform.
I praise Him for using
me to impact people each
week through my writing!
I’m truly thankful for the
opportunity. I truly love
the people who read my

come!
However, I compromise
the importance it holds.

mine to reach millions of

We’re called to be
humble. Jesus says, “‘The

who humble themselves
will be exalted’” (Matt.

“So humble yourselves

of God, and at the right

About
Jesus’
baptism
We have had a busy
time lately with Advent,
Christmas, and New

In today’s lesson, we
are going to hear about

was telling the people
that the Messiah was
coming. John was a rather strange looking person
with wild hair, clothes
made of camel skin, and
He ate locust and honey.
(Yukk!) He was preaching
to the people that they
needed to repent of their
sins and be baptized.
Many, many people were
baptized by John in the
river there, but one day
here came Jesus, and He

told John to baptize Him.
John didn’t think he was
worthy to baptize Jesus, but
he did. When Jesus came up
out of the water, he saw a
dove land on Jesus and give
Jesus the gift of the Holy
Spirit. Then God’s voice
from heaven was heard to
say, “You are my Son, whom
I love, and with You, I am
well pleased.”
Wow, can you imagine
seeing all that happen?
Because God Himself spoke
and gave Jesus the Holy
Spirit, we know Jesus was
God’s true Son, and God
loved Him. God even said
how proud He was of Jesus.
Now, Jesus was ready to
being His ministry to the
people and to us; He was
blessed and ﬁlled with the
Holy Spirit by His Father.
From this story in the Bible,
we know just how important Jesus is to His Father
God and to all of us too.
We all need to be more
like Jesus, so our Father
God can be proud of us too.
As we begin 2018, let’s all
try to be better people, so
we can feel proud of our
own behaviors and then
know heaven is proud of us
as well. Maybe you can ask
about how your church does
baptisms and what it means
to be part of your church.
Let’s pray. Father God,
thank You for sending Your
Son Jesus to us and for
the sacrament of baptism.
Thank You also for giving
the Holy Spirit to be upon
Him and that we can have
the same Holy Spirit ﬁll us
today. In Jesus’ name we
pray, Amen.
P.S. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

More precious than gold are

energy. But as we start ﬁnding
things to do, we need to ask
the question, “Is this where I
want to leave my legacy?”
Instead of fretting excessively over exactly what mutual
fund or stock option to buy
into, we must begin to invest
our moments in areas that ultimately matter (sorry to everyone who confuses the “afterlife”
with a generous retirement
fund).
First, consider your own spiritual life. Is it what it should
be? Or are you “putting off”
those things until a more expedient time? This is a terribly
dangerous attitude for we often
ﬁnd that we don’t have all the
tomorrows we had counted on.
If there are unresolved spiritual
issues in your life that need to
be addressed, be wise and deal
with them now.
Secondly, let’s invest in other
people, particularly others who

are in need. Look for folks in
valleys of fear, loneliness, hunger or pain. Take a moment,
consider its worth, and then
plant it in the fertile soil of
human need. It will bear fruit.
The Bible says in Ephesians
5:15-17 (ESV), “Look carefully then how you walk, not
as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time,
because the days are evil.
Therefore do not be foolish,
but understand what the will
of the Lord is.” As the future
opens its blank pages to the
pen of your choices, be careful
what you write.

Steelers standout
O-line a tribute to
Munchak’s approach

Wildcats fall at Buffalo
By Bryan Walters

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Mike Munchak doesn’t
live in a bubble.
If anything, he makes it a point to avoid it.
So do the players he mentors as the offensive
line coach for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
So when the Hall of Famer’s name popped up
as a candidate for the open head coaching job in
Arizona this week, Munchak didn’t ignore the
elephant in the room.
Neither did his guys.
“We told him to enjoy the West Coast,” Chris
Hubbard said with a laugh. “Enjoy being out there
closer to your daughter.”
Hubbard was kidding. For now anyway.
Just because the AFC North champions have
given the Cardinals permission to interview
Munchak doesn’t mean he’s going to get the job.
Then again, if Munchak needs a reference or
two, he won’t lack for volunteers.
Look no further than the group Munchak has
helped turn into one of the best offensive lines in
the league, one bent on making sure their mentor
will have to wait until early February before moving on to the next opportunity should one come
along.
Over the course of the past four seasons,
Munchak has taken a line ﬁlled with disparate personalities and pedigrees and turned it into a cohesive group and made most of them millionaires
several times over in the process. When asked if
Munchak deserves a cut of the proﬁts, to a man
they say yes.
Of course, Munchak would never take it. What’s
the fun in that when he can use the knowledge he’s
one of the lowest-paid guys in the room — and the
only one, by the way, with a bust in Canton, Ohio
— to bring out the sense of humor he uses to
disarm and instruct, often at the same time. Film
sessions are equal parts teaching mechanism and
stand-up act.
“He’ll make fun of you in a funny, nonaggressive
way, not to where (you’re offended),” said fourtime Pro Bowl guard David DeCastro, whose rise
to one of the best in the league coincided with
Munchak’s arrival in 2014.
“If he makes fun of you, you laugh about it but
then it’s still in the back of your head right, so you
remember (the lesson) at the same time.”
Four years and four playoff berths into
Munchak’s tenure, the lessons have been many.
While left tackle Alejandro Villanueva stressed
the line’s only goal is “to win the game and keep
(quarterback) Ben (Roethlisberger) upright,” let’s
give it a try anyway.
Over the ﬁrst decade of Roethlisberger’s career,
he was sacked an average of 42 times a season.
Since Munchak arrived, that number has dropped
to 22½ a season.
Though there are other factors at play, namely
Roethlisberger’s continued evolution, the presence
of some of the best skill position players in the
league in wide receiver Antonio Brown and running back Le’Veon Bell, the line’s contributions
can’t be overlooked.
And those contributions start with Munchak,
who has preached an ethos that could best be
described as a jumbo-sized version of the “Three
Musketeers.”
“He created an offensive line and an offensive

Hannan sophomore Devrick Burris (24)
releases a shot attempt over a Buffalo
defender during the second half of
Wednesday night’s boys basketball
contest in Buffalo, W.Va.

BUFFALO, W.Va. — Whatever
‘it’ was, the Wildcats just couldn’t
ﬁnd it.
The Hannan boys basketball team
struggled to ﬁnd a spark as host
Buffalo led by at least three possessions over the ﬁnal 25 minutes en
route to a 47-36 victory on Wednesday night in a non-conference contest in Putnam County.
The visiting Wildcats (1-4) held
a brief 3-2 advantage in the opening frame, but the Bison (2-3)
answered with nine consecutive
points and never looked back.
The Blue and White countered
with a Malachi Cade trifecta at the
2:08 mark to close back to within

ﬁve, but Noah Thompson followed
with his fourth three-pointer of the
canto while sparking a 5-2 run over
the ﬁnal 1:42 — giving BHS a 16-8
advantage through eight minutes
of play.
The Wildcats were never closer
the rest of the way as Buffalo reeled
off six straight points as part of an
8-2 run over the opening four minutes of the second frame, allowing
the Blue and Gold to secure their
largest lead of the night at 26-10.
Hannan, however, closed the half
on a 7-2 surge to enter the locker
room facing a 28-17 deﬁcit.
The Bison started the second half
with ﬁve straight points to increase
their lead back out to 15 points just

TUPPERS PLAINS,
Ohio — Control the
glass, control the game.
The Eastern boys
basketball team won
the rebounding battle
by 22 on Wednesday in
Meigs County, leading
the Eagles to a 55-34 victory over non-conference
guest Nelsonville-York.
After a pair of early
lead changes, the Eagles
(3-4) took the lead for
good with an 8-0 run that
last 1:33. NYHS (4-4)
closed the ﬁrst quarter
with a 5-3 spurt and
trailed 14-10 at the end
of the stanza.
The Eagles pushed
their lead to double digits in the second quarter,
but settled for an eightpoint, 33-25, halftime
lead.
The hosts allowed the
Buckeyes to make just
one ﬁeld goal in the third
quarter, as Eastern’s lead
grew to 43-29 by the end
of the third quarter.
The Eagles led by as
many as 24 points in the
fourth, sealing the 55-34
victory with a with a
12-to-5 quarter.
“The kids played hard
and our post play was
phenomenal,” said Eastern head coach Jeremy
Hill. “We teach the kids

game,” added Coach Hill.

Fish did a great job in the
post when Kaleb wasn’t
in there.”

As a team, the Eagles
shot 24-of-43 (55.8
percent) from the ﬁeld,
including 2-of-6 (33.3
percent) from threepoint range. Meanwhile,
Nelsonville-York shot
9-of-43 (20.9 percent)
from the ﬁeld, including
4-of-16 (25 percent) from
beyond the arc. At the
charity stripe, EHS was
5-of-9 (55.6 percent) and
NYHS was 12-of-23 (52.2
percent).
The Eagles outrebounded the Buckeyes
by a 39-to-17 clip, including 12-to-9 on the offensive end. Eastern also

claimed a 15-to-6 advantage in assists, while
Nelsonville-York earned
an 11-to-7 edge in steals.
EHS committed 23 turnovers in the win, eight
more than the Buckeyes.
Both teams came up with
a pair of blocked shots.
“I’ve conceded that
we’re not going to play
the perfect game” said
Coach Hill. We’re not
going to play a game
where we’re down
around 10-or-15 turnovers. We got so many
good looks inside and
our defense played pretty
well, so it allowed us to
turn the ball over like we
normally do.”
EHS senior Kaleb
Hill led the victors with
18 points on nine ﬁeld
goals. Garrett Barringer
scored 12 points for the
hosts, while Isaiah Fish
earned a double-double
of 10 points and 14
rebounds. Colton Reynolds and Blaise Facemyer
each hit a three-pointer
and ﬁnished with eight
and seven points respectively.
Blaise Facemyer led
EHS with ﬁve assists,
while pulling in nine
rebounds. Fish, Reynolds
and Ryan Dill came up
with two steals apiece
for the Eagles, while Hill
rejected two shots.
Justin Perry led the
Buckeyes with 11 points,
all of which came in the
second quarter. Reece

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (11) drives to the basket past
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Jae Crowder (99) during the first
quarter in Boston on Wednesday. The Celtics won 102-88

Rozier scores 20,
leads Celtics to
win over Cavaliers
BOSTON (AP) — One
by one, the Boston Celtics lined up to embrace
Isaiah Thomas.
The next time they see
their former teammate,
he probably won’t be in a
hoodie after watching the
game from the bench.
And it won’t be so easy.
Terry Rozier scored
20 points in 20 minutes,
stealing the spotlight
from Thomas, LeBron
James and Kyrie Irving in
a rematch of the Eastern
Conference ﬁnals and
leading the Celtics to a
102-88 victory over the
Cleveland Cavaliers on
Wednesday night.
Thomas received a
standing ovation from the
Boston fans but did not
play one night after making his season debut in a
return from a hip injury.
Rozier made sure to pay
his respects, and Thomas
told the third-year Celtics
guard he was proud of
him.
“When I ﬁrst came in
the league, that’s a guy
that I watched a lot. The
little things he did on and
off the court. Like a big
brother to me,” Rozier
said. “Just to hear those
words from him, I’m
happy that he’s on his way
back — so I can guard
him in February.”
Rozier scored the last
eight Boston points of the
ﬁrst quarter to give the
Celtics an 11-point lead,
and had another eight in
a row midway through

the fourth when they
expanded the lead to 21.
Marcus Smart and Jayson Tatum had 15 points
apiece, and Irving and
Al Horford each had 11
points and nine rebounds
to help Boston to its
fourth straight win.
James had 19 points,
seven rebounds and six
assists on 8-for-15 shooting — the only starter to
make more than half of
his shots on a team that
scored a season-low 88
points.
“Against LeBron,
there’s nobody that can
guard him the whole
game. So you have to
throw as many bodies at
him as you can,” Celtics
coach Brad Stevens said.
“And then pray.”
Tristan Thompson
had 10 points and 10
rebounds for Cleveland,
which lost for the fourth
time in ﬁve games. Playing on back-to-back
nights — the Celtics had
been preparing for them
since New Year’s Eve
— Cleveland shot 34.8
percent.
It was the ﬁrst time the
teams had played since
the season opener, when
top Boston free-agent
Gordon Hayward broke
his leg in a gruesome
injury that reshufﬂed
the Eastern Conference
playoff race. The Celtics ﬁnished with the top
seed last year, but lost in
the conference ﬁnals to
Cleveland.

BUFFALO, W.Va. —
Basketball isn’t a bakery.
Turnovers once again
plagued the Hannan
girls basketball team on
Wednesday night during
a 32-27 setback to host
Buffalo in a non-conference contest in Putnam
County.
The Lady Cats (1-8)
committed 26 turnovers
in the contest, twice as
many as the Lady Bison
(1-9) — who ended up
claiming their ﬁrst taste
of success thanks to
guests’ generosity.
Those extra opportunities proved particularly
beneﬁcial in the ﬁrst half
as Hannan coughed the
ball up 14 times, allowing the Blue and Gold to
lead by as many as six
points in each of the ﬁrst
two quarters.
The Blue and White
never trailed by more
than two possessions in
the entire contest and
managed to keep things
competitive throughout
— even though the Lady
Cats never held a single
lead.
In the end, however,
mistakes ultimately came
back to haunt the guests
after managing only one
more point than turnovers in the hard-fought
outcome.
Naturally, HHS coach
Kellie Thomas was disappointed in the ﬁnal outcome afterwards — particularly with a repeating
theme that keeps leading
to similar results.
“It came down to turnovers once again. When
you give the ball away
14 times in the ﬁrst half
and have another eight
turnovers in the fourth,
things just aren’t going
to go your way,” Thomas
said. “There’s just no
excuse for it. We dug
ourselves a hole and we
couldn’t get out of it.
“I thought we made
a really good run in the
second half, but one
decent half isn’t enough
to get us out of the mess
we got ourselves in. We
have to take better care
of the ball if things are
going to change.”
The Lady Cats had
six of the nine turnovers
in the opening canto
while also falling behind
by counts of 4-0 and
8-2 before trailing 8-3

through eight minutes of
play.
BHS followed with a
2-1 run to take a 10-4
edge with 6:16 left in
the half, but Hannan —
despite committing eight
turnovers — answered
with a 7-2 run over the
ﬁnal 5:09 while closing
its halftime deﬁcit down
to a single point at 12-11.
The Lady Bison
opened the third quarter with a basket, but
Pammie Ochs countered
with a trifecta to tie
the game at 14-all with
6:25 remaining. Buffalo
countered with a 6-3
run over the ﬁnal 5:10
to secure a slim 20-17
cushion headed into the
ﬁnale.
HHS whittled the lead
down to a single on ﬁve
different occasions down
the stretch, with the last
occurrence coming with
1:14 left after a basket by
Bailey Coleman.
The guests, however,
went scoreless the rest
of the way as Buffalo
netted 4-of-6 free throw
attempts over the ﬁnal
1:06 to wrap up the ﬁvepoint triumph.
Hannan — which
has now dropped four
straight decisions — outrebounded the hosts by
a 38-32 overall margin,
including a 10-8 edge on
the offensive glass.
The Lady Cats connected on 8-of-40 ﬁeld
goal attempts for 20
percent, which included

a 3-of-14 effort from
behind the arc for 21
percent. The guests were
also 8-of-13 at the free
throw line for 62 percent.
Coleman led HHS with
eight points, followed by
Halie Johnson with seven
points and a team-high
11 rebounds. Ochs was
next with ﬁve points and
Lindsey Holley added
three markers.
Bailey Tolliver and
Julie Frazier completed
the visiting tally with
two points apiece.
McCoy and Frazier also
hauled in eight and seven
boards, respectively.
The Lady Bison netted
12-of-50 shot attempts
for 24 percent, including
misses on all 17 of their
trifecta tries. The hosts
were also 8-of-18 at the
charity stripe for 44 percent.
Emily Reilly paced
BHS with a game-high
10 points, followed by
Brooke Slaubaugh with
eight points and a gamehigh 13 rebounds.
Joni Smith was next
with six points, while
Kelsay Templeton and
Hailey Williams rounded
out the winning score
with four markers
apiece.

action Monday when

Christian for a 6 p.m.
