Middleport to seek grants By Sarah Hawley shawley@aimmediamidwest.com MIDDLEPORT — The village of Middleport is looking into grant opportunities for the Marina area of the village. In recent weeks, village workers have been spending time clearing brush and old trees from the area along Leading Creek, as they prepare for the grant application process. Village Administrator Joe Woodall explained that there are currently three grants through the Ohio Department of Natural Resources which the village is looking to apply for in the coming months. The Step Outside Grant, which is for outdoor education, is for $500 and could be used to put on a youth fishing derby or similar event at the Marina. The Aquatic Education Grant is for $800 to $5,000. It could be utilized for a fishing clinic or similar events, and would include an ODNR officer coming in and teaching those in attendance. The third grant would be an archery related grant. Woodall explained that the grant, which would be up to $20,000, would allow for the construction of an archery shooting range to be constructed in the Marina area. The idea is that the archery ATHENS — A Racine man has been identified as the missing kayaker first responders in Athens County are continuing to search for in the Hocking River.

Woodall said that he recently met with ODNR wildlife officer Chris Gilkey with regard to the possible grants available for the area and was please that Gilkey saw potential for the area. The overall goal with the cleanup of the Marina and the grant applications is to provide a green space for all ages to enjoy. Woodall said the vision for that area would include an area for kayaking and fishing, camping, and other activities. “The village has a need to get youth involved in outdoor recreation,” said Woodall. “A lot can be done in the Marina and there is potential to create a green space for all ages.” While the focus at General Hartinger Park has been more on sports and athletic recreation activities, the Marina space would provide green space for other types of activities. The village is also working on a Nature Works grant for the area, which could be used for repairs to the lot and ramp area, as well as picnic tables, fire rings and eight primitive camp sites (for tent camping) at the Marina area.

Iraqi prime minister declares ‘total victory’ in Mosul By Susannah George Associated Press MOSUL, Iraq — Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi declared victory Monday evening over the Islamic State in Mosul after nearly nine months of grueling combat to drive the militants out of Iraq’s second-largest city. “We announce the total victory for Iraq and all Iraqis,” al-Abadi said, speaking from a small base in western Mosul on the edge of the Old City, where the last pockets of resistance had been holding out. “This great feast day crowned the victories of the fighters and the Iraqis for the past three years,” he said. Hours earlier, airstrikes pounded the last IS-held territory on the western edge of the Tigris River. In recent days, Iraqi troops, closely backed by airstrikes from the Tuesday, July 11, 2017 3 Iraqi Prime Minister’s Media Office via AP Iraq’s prime minister Haider al-Abadi on Monday addresses forces from a small base on the edge of Mosul’s Old City, where heavy clashes have been underway for days. Al-Abadi returned to Mosul Monday and declared victory against the Islamic State group in the northern city following nine months of grueling urban combat. U.S.-led coalition, confined the remaining few hundred extremists in an area measuring less than a square kilometer (less than a mile). Shortly after al-Abadi’s speech, the coalition congratulated him on the victory against “a brutal and evil enemy,” according to a statement. “While there are still areas of the Old City of Mosul that must be back-cleared of explosive devices and possible ISIS fighters in hiding, the ISF have Mosul now firmly under their control,” the statement added. Al-Abadi was in Mosul on Sunday, congratulating Iraqi soldiers on recent gains but stopping short of declaring an outright victory. The battle for Mosul was Iraq’s longest and most punishing conventional fight against IS in the more than three-year war against the extremists. Launched in October, the massive operation comprised more than 70,000 Iraqi troops drawn from the country’s army, special forces, police, tribal fighters and mostly Shiite paramilitary forces. Over the course of the campaign, Iraq’s special forces units who largely led the assault have faced casualty rates of 40 percent, according to a report in May from the office of the U.S. secretary of defense. Additionally, thousands of civilians were estimated to have been killed, according to Nineveh’s provincial council. That did not include those still believed buried under collapsed buildings.

But Washington’s health care debate and the nation’s opioid crisis became quite real to me in new ways after a city councilman in the Ohio town where I grew up made national news by raising a provocative question: Does the city have to respond to calls from repeat opiate overdose patients? Morality aside — and that’s pushing a lot aside — that’s a good question, especially in a town whose local government is struggling to make ends meet. Middletown, Ohio, my old hometown, is faced with that challenge. The once-thriving factory town that I recall has become a textbook case of postindustrial job loss. With that, it has one of the highest opioids overdose rates in a state whose overdose rate currently ranks fourth nationwide, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The city of about 50,000 has already seen almost 600 overdoses so far this year. That’s more than all of 2016. Ambulance crews say they’re responding to as many as four or five calls a day. And the cost is soaring. Addiction treatment programs cost more than $2 million, or 10 percent of the city’s annual tax revenue, spokesmen say. Fearing a fiscal train wreck, Councilman Dan Picard has asked the city’s law department to investigate whether the city has a legal obligation to respond with ambulance service to repeat opiate overdose patients. If it does not, Picard’s has informally suggested include a three strikes policy: The first two times that someone overdoses, they would have to pay the city back for the cost by performing community service. If they overdose a third time without having repaid their debts from the first two, no ambulance would come. That’s pretty drastic. The thought of barring ambulance crews from an overdose patient who hasn’t paid all of his or her fees reminds me of another unsettling story. Back in 2010, network news showed firefighters in rural Obion County, Tenn., who were ordered to stand aside and let a home burn to the ground. The homeowner hadn’t paid a $75 fee to receive fire coverage provided by the nearby town of South Fulton. But Picard’s suggestion quickly went viral, attracting “hate mail, national news coverage and overloaded voice mail and email in-boxes,” wrote city manager Doug Adkins in his blog. Except, Adkins went on to point out, “nothing has changed … at all … whatsoever. We are responding to every call and rendering aid as needed. We give Narcan where it is appropriate. Period.” Narcan, also known by the generic name Naloxone, blocks the effects of opioids in overdose patients. Yet one of the reasons why Picard’s idea went viral is that it coincided the Senate considering a Republican-backed measure to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare. In his quest to secure 51 votes, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell added $45 billion in additional funding to combat the opioid crisis. The move aimed to attract the votes of moderate Republican Sens. Rob Portman of Ohio and Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia. The initial version of the bill provided only $2 billion in state grants to address the crisis. But both Portman and Capito were even more concerned about the deep cuts that original legislation would make to Medicaid, cuts that the Congressional Budget Office estimates would take $772 billion from Medicaid and coverage away from 15 million people. Ohio’s Republican Gov. John Kasich said last week that he warned Portman that even the $45 billion wouldn’t come close to making up for the damage caused by the Medicaid cuts in the bill. An earlier analysis by Richard Frank and Sherry Glied of New York University also estimated that the Senate Republican bill would cost 2.8 million Americans help with their drug use disorders and almost 1.3 million with serious mental disorders, if those Obamacare benefits were not restored. That puts Congress in a position not unlike leaders back in Middletown and other towns in similar predicaments. Both have to make life or death decisions about their resources in the face of an opioid crisis, except the local folks happen to live and work closer to those who need the help.

Smith noted in her response that there was a compliance visit a few months into 2013 which reviewed “several employee files and patient charts, specifically reviewing employee competency. It was noted at this time that our agency was in compliance, including the CPR and first-aid process that is now considered a noncompliance issue. The only instruction that was given from the above named surveyors was that the CPR and first-aid could not be solely internet based, in which none of ours were. Had any further instruction been given, we could have immediately changed our policy and procedures.” “Our goal as an agency is always to provide excellent care to our community and to remain complaint with all ODM rules. At the survey end we were deemed competent to continue providing services according to current policy and procedure and ORC,” Smith stated. “There was no Notice of Operational Deficiency and no request for any Plan of Correction.” Information provided by the Ohio Auditor’s Office.

The Cincinnati righthander threw 6 2/3 strong innings, Scott Schebler doubled in the go-ahead run and left fielder Adam Duvall threw out Paul Goldschmidt at the plate in the Reds’ 2-1 victory over the Diamondbacks on Sunday. The Diamondbacks, one of the feel-good stories of the first half, limp into the All-Star break losers of five of six games, four of them by one run. “Tough, tough game to lose,” said Arizona manager Torey Lovullo, whose team has fallen 7 1/2 games behind firstplace Los Angeles in the NL West. Bailey (2-2) gave up a run on seven hits in his fourth start since returning from February surgery to remove small bone spurs from his right elbow. It was the last of a string of operations that began in 2014 when he had a torn flexor tendon repaired. A year later, he underwent Tommy John surgery. “As cliche as it sounds you just kind of keep going forward,” Bailey said of his battle back. “It’s behind us. It’s behind me. You just keep going.” After surrendering 14 runs in his first two starts this year, Bailey allowed one run in six innings at Colorado on Tuesday. “I think certainly the last two games would suggest that he is really getting back to the Homer we knew before he started to have the injury problems,” Cincinnati manager Bryan Price said. A.J. Pollock homered for Arizona, his first since a six-week stint on the disabled list with a groin injury. Patrick Corbin (6-9) allowed two runs in six innings and matched his season high with nine strikeouts, but took the loss. The Diamondbacks offense sputtered again, with a combined one run in its last 19 innings. Arizona was 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position and had two thrown out at the plate. Raisel Iglesias pitched a perfect ninth for his 16th save in 17 tries. The Reds broke a 1-1 tie in the sixth. With one out, Duvall doubled down the right field line. The next batter, Eugenio Suarez, was called out on strikes and broke his bat on the plate in disgust before being ejected by home plate umpire Brian O’Nora. Schebler followed with a line shot to right field, where David Peralta slipped breaking for the ball. The ball got past him for an RBI double and Cincinnati led 2-1. “It was a hard line drive and I had to go to the right really hard and I slipped,” Peralta said. “There was nothing you can do. I was trying to do my best and try to make the play but it didn’t happen.” The Diamondbacks had runners at first and second with no outs in the sixth when Owings singled to short left field but Goldschmidt, trying to score from second, was thrown out at home by Duvall. Third base coach Tony Perezchica sent Goldschmidt home on what promised to be a close play even though there were no outs in a one-run game.

Wilfredo Lee | AP Chicago Cubs fans celebrate after the Cubs defeated the Miami Marlins 11-1 on June 22 in Miami. Marlins supporters were outnumbered in June against the visiting Cubs. “It’s not a great situation,” says Miami manager Don Mattingly, accustomed to a more favorable home atmosphere when he played for the Yankees. “I don’t think it has anything to do with us and the way we play or don’t play. It would be nice to have a packed house with Marlins fans, so Cub fans or Met fans can’t get tickets. But that’s not the case. What are you going to do?” All-Stars come to struggling Florida GAHS football golf scramble GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — The annual Gallia Academy football golf scramble will be Saturday, July 22, at Cliffside Golf Course.

See BRIEFS | 7 MIAMI (AP) — A Miami Marlins fan walks into a bar, and this is no joke: He wants to watch his team play, but all 10 televisions are tuned to other games in other time zones. The bar, located near Marlins Park, broadcasts the lack of allegiance for the home team loud and clear. It’s a common occurrence in South Florida, and where else would such a thing happen? Not Boston or St. Louis or San Francisco or most major league locales. Tampa Bay? Maybe. Like the Marlins, the Rays are last in their league in attendance and battling the kind of chronic fan apathy that has plagued both franchises since they were founded in the 1990s. The Marlins are in their 25th season and about to host the All-Star Game when it comes to the state for the first time. But does Major League Baseball belong in Florida? Perhaps not, given the failure of the Rays and Marlins to develop a robust fan base. “I don’t know what the disconnect is,” said NL All-Star manager Joe Maddon, who spent nine seasons as Tampa Bay’s manager. “Spring training has been here for 100 years. You would think this would be a strong area for baseball.” Instead, it’s a strong area for foul-ball collectors, because they face little competition. The Rays have finished last in the majors in attendance every year since 2011, when they were next to last. The Marlins have finished last in the NL 11 of the past 12 seasons. Many spectators who do show up care more about the visitors — even if that means booing them. Orioles starter Ubaldo Jimenez heard jeers from Baltimore fans recently as he left the mound after a poor performance at Tampa Bay. Marlins supporters were badly outnumbered in June against the visiting Cubs and Mets. “It’s not a great situation,” said Miami manager Don Mattingly, accustomed to a more favorable home atmosphere when he played for the Yankees. “It would be nice to have a packed house with Marlins fans, so Cub fans or Met fans can’t get tickets. But that’s not the case. What are you going to do?” Both Florida teams tried changing their name; that didn’t help. It turned out calling them the Tampa Bay Devil Rays and Florida Marlins wasn’t the issue. So what is? Theories might outnumber empty seats. “There are a bunch of problems,” said Rays first baseman Logan Morrison, who also played for the Marlins. One issue is the transient nature of the state, which makes it different from markets where fan support goes back generations. “A lot of people who live in Florida aren’t from Florida,” Morrison said. “The organizations are relatively new, so you don’t have fans with deep roots. A lot of people who go to games in the Florida markets are fans of other teams.” Another issue is lack of competitiveness. Florida’s teams have reached the playoffs six times in their 43 combined seasons. The Marlins haven’t been to the postseason since 2003, the longest current drought in the NL. “I don’t think it’s a market we should give up on just yet,” said South Florida native Mike Lowell, who played for the Marlins’ 2003 World Series champions. “You need teams to make another playoff run. “In 2003, that last month was so exciting. It snowballed, and in the postseason we had a unique home-field advantage, because all of a sudden we’re drawing 60,000-plus. It shows that if you build a winner, Miami will rally around it.” That championship team was soon dismantled in one of the Marlins’ many payroll purges, and support plummeted. For both the Marlins and Rays, modest payrolls have made it tough to keep popular — and expensive — players. Constant roster turnover has alienated fans, especially in Miami, where unpopular owner Jeffrey Loria’s team is for sale. The All-Star Game will showcase the Marlins’ 5-year-old ballpark, which received rave reviews but hasn’t helped attendance. The Rays, by contrast, play in 27-yearold Tropicana Field, widely regarded among the worst facilities in professional sports. Neither ballpark is centrally located in its region, making for long drives at rush hour for many potential spectators. “There are a lot of Marlins fans,” said Marlins executive Jeff Conine, a former All-Star Game MVP nicknamed Mr. Marlin. “I get recognized wherever I go. People like the Marlins. They just don’t come to games.” Most South Floridians don’t watch on TV, either. The Marlins ranked 26th in the majors in ratings last season; the Rays ranked 14th.

(AP) — Martin Truex Jr. boldly declared his Toyota the best car he had ever raced, and several statistics make it hard to dispute him. There also was plenty of visual evidence of how close to perfect his Saturday night went. Truex was dominant throughout and had enough left on a final restart to win the NASCAR Cup race night at Kentucky Speedway. “It was very big to do what we did tonight,” Truex said. “I can never recall saving fuel and pulling away from everybody before, so it was pretty amazing.” Second in points entering the 400-mile event, Truex started second beside Kyle Busch and won the first two stages. Truex led the final segment by as many as 15 seconds before a final caution created overtime and bunched the field together. That made no difference as Truex got a push past Busch on the restart and went on to his third victory of the season and 10th of his career. He led five times for 152 of 274 laps and swept all three stages in the No. 78 Toyota to earn 60 points, including seven playoff points, and draw within one of standings leader Kyle Larson, who finished second in a Chevy. Truex’s dominant performance wasn’t the only reason he was smiling. He was eager to get back and bring his girlfriend, Sherry Pollex, home after a medical procedure. Pollex has battled ovarian cancer and tweeted Saturday that there had been a recurrence requiring surgery. “Everything went perfectly good, went as planned,” he said. “I’m bringing her home tomorrow, so I’m excited to see her and everything’s going great. She was pretty excited.” All-Stars From page 6 When expansion brought teams to Florida, Major League Baseball anticipated success in a state with a rich spring training tradition. But many of the fans who attend those games are gone in the summer. “Spring training’s a different animal, tied to vacationers and teams that are here in the Grapefruit League,” said Orestes Destrade, a Rays broadcaster who played for the inaugural Marlins team in 1993. “There’s so much going on in Florida during the baseball season. In Detroit, what are you going to do? Certain northern cities, I’m not dogging them, I’m just saying you don’t have the beaches and nine million things to do. That makes Reds From page 6 “I think we all understand that it wasn’t probably the right moment to try and send Goldy,” Lovullo said, “but we all make mistakes.” Arizona still had runners at second and third but Bailey struck out Chris Iannetta and Ketel Marte to escape the threat. Bailey led off the third with his first hit of the season and Billy Ham- it a problem.” The Rays’ best hope for a turnaround is a new ballpark in Tampa, across the bay from their current home in St. Petersburg. A vote last year allowed the Rays to start looking at possible sites in Tampa, but the process of relocation will likely be lengthy. In Miami, antipathy toward Loria keeps many fans away, and the anticipated sale of the team could provide a reboot. But there’s no guarantee new ownership will succeed where three previous Marlins owners failed. “A little has to be thrown on the fans,” Lowell said. “You asked for a stadium, and got it. Fans are not coming out as projected or hoped.” Perhaps all those empty seats are a way of saying Miami’s just not a baseball town — and Florida’s not a baseball state. ilton bounced into a fielder’s choice. Hamilton stole second, his 37th stolen base of the season and fourth in two games. Joey Votto poked a soft single into center field to bring Hamilton home and make it 1-0. Cincinnati resumes play Friday at home against Washington. Either RH Luis Castillo (1-1, 3.13) or RH Tim Adleman (5-6, 4.71) will start for the Reds. Cincinnati will have Votto and Zack Gozart in the AllStar Game. Tuesday, July 11, 2017 7 Schauffele birdies final hole to win Greenbrier WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. (AP) — A strong finish in the U.S. Open late month helped prepare Xander Schauffele for the nerveracking grind of chasing a title on the PGA Tour. The rookie made a 3-foot birdie putt on the final hole Sunday to win The Greenbrier Classic by a stroke over Robert Streb for his first tour victory. Schauffele closed with a 3-under 67 and finished at 14-under 266 to cap a daylong duel with Streb and third-round leader Sebastian Munoz. Streb shot 69. Munoz had a 72 to tie for third with Jamie Lovemark at 12 under. Lovemark shot 69. The 23-year-old Schauffele, who took up golf after giving up soccer because his coaches wanted him to switch from offense to defense, tied for fifth in his first U.S. Open at Erin Hills. “The U.S. Open was a huge moment in my career,” Schauffele said. “It was one of the biggest stages, and for me to be calm and collected throughout the week and just kind of hang on and tie for fifth was huge for me mentally. It kind of gave me the confidence and allowed me to play to win this week.” Watching fellow youngster Jon Rahm of Spain win the Irish Open earlier Sunday also served as motivation for Schauffele, who shot from 94th to 27th in the FedEx Cup standings. “Everybody knows I’m a late bloomer,” Schauffele said. “To jump into the top 30 is something special for me.” Schauffele, Streb, Munoz and Lovemark Briefs From page 6 Meigs youth football camp ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio — The 2017 Meigs youth football camp will be held for kids in grades K-8 from 10 a.m. until noon on Saturday, Aug. 12, at Farmers Bank Stadium on the campus of Meigs High School.

Russell Henley was the only player among the top 10 finishers who already was in. Schauffele also punched a ticket to this year’s PGA Championship and next year’s Masters.

Munoz, Streb and Schauffele traded the lead all day with each having their share of troubles. As Schauffele reached the 161-yard 18th with a pitching wedge, Munoz and Streb heard the crowd’s roar from the par-5 17th green and both missed birdie putts. Streb then found the left rough on 18 and his chip that would have forced a playoff came up short. Munoz needed to ace the 18th to tie it, but settled for par. Munoz couldn’t become the first-to-wire winner of the tournament, which no thirdround leader has ever won. The rookie also led the St. Jude Classic at the halfway point last month, but tied for 60th.
