FAIRLAWN: Northeast Ohio Eye Surgeons plans to build a $2.1 million ophthalmology center at the corner of Embassy Parkway and Crystal Lake Road.

The 10,010-square-foot facility will include family eye care, a LASIK center and optical center. More than 30 employees are expected to work there.

The ophthalmology group now operates sites in Akron, Kent and Stow, and a surgical center in Cuyahoga Falls.

The group didn’t respond to a request for comment.

The project will go before the Fairlawn Planning Commission Dec. 8 for preliminary approval. Paperwork filed with the city doesn’t say when construction would begin or when the facility would open.

A city official said the community will learn more about the project during the upcoming meeting.

Simplay3, a new toy and home and garden company, has opened a preview store at Hudson’s First & Main shopping district.

The Streetsboro company founded by toy industry veteran Tom Murdough recently started selling its products online at www.simplay3.com. Murdough, who founded both the Little Tikes company and Step2 before selling them, came out of retirement to start Simplay3 with several of his former associates and partners.

The idea behind Simplay3 is to make rotational mold toys and home products without the middle man or mass-market retailers. Simplay3’s design is to sell exclusively online via its website. Shipping is free for all orders west of the Mississippi River and $9.99 west of the Mississippi, said Dotti Franks, marketing communications specialist.

But the company decided to open the preview store for the holiday season in the First & Main shopping district as a way to allow local customers a chance to touch and feel the products before they buy, Franks said. Murdough, a Hudson resident, is also owner and developer of the First & Main district at the corner of state routes 303 and 91.

Customers will also be able to give the company feedback on some future products at the store at 46 Park Lane, next to the Cold Stone Creamery.

“Based on prior experience at Little Tikes and Step2, where we had on-site company stores, we learned a great deal from consumer contact with our products,” Murdough said. “That’s the same thinking behind the launch of our preview store in the First and Main shopping district.”

Five of the company’s products — four home and garden products and a children’s Game Day Push About Helmet stroller — are available for purchase at the store. Other items are available for viewing and pre-orders and several future items are also on display for customer feedback, Franks said.

There is also a promotional discount of 10 percent for orders purchased at the store, Franks said.

The store opened last weekend and for now is on a short-term lease, though the company may decide to keep it open.

Hours are noon to 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday and noon to 5 p.m. Sunday.

University of Akron President Matthew Wilson has named Barbara Weinzierl as chief of staff for the office of the president.

Weinzierl serves as assistant dean of admissions and strategic initiatives in the School of Law.

In her new role, she will manage the daily operations of the president’s office, serve as liaison to campus constituencies and assist the president in carrying out the priorities set by the board of trustees.

Her annual salary is $125,000.

Weinzierl earned her bachelor’s degree from Vassar College and a Juris Doctor from Cornell Law School. Following her law school graduation, Weinzierl worked as an associate in the corporate department at the New York City law firm of Seward & Kissel LLP.

Weinzierl entered higher education administration as associate director of career planning at the University of Pittsburgh and went on to serve as the director of career planning at Duquesne University and as assistant dean of career services at Case Western Reserve University.

She joined UA in April 2009 as the director of career planning and was named to her most recent position two years ago.

Weinzierl will divide her time between the office of the president and the School of Law until a successor is appointed to her law position.

A Barberton teen sentenced to juvenile detention until he was 21 for the murder and rape of his 3-year-old half sister was warned that he could face a life sentence in adult prison unless he completed the required programs and stayed out of trouble.

D’Marques “DJ” Jones, now 20, failed to complete a required sex offender course during his 3½-year incarceration in a juvenile facility.

So, Summit County Juvenile Court Judge Linda Tucci Teodosio made good on her warning and recently sentenced Jones to life in prison. Jones will be eligible for parole after 25 years.

“Our job is to protect the community and keep the citizens of Summit County safe,” Summit County Prosecutor Sherri Bevan Walsh said in a news release Tuesday. Her office originally pushed for Jones to be tried as an adult.

“Allowing him to go into the community untreated and unsupervised after such a heinous crime was not an option,” Walsh said.

Jones was convicted by a Summit County Juvenile Court jury in December 2012 of raping and murdering Makayla Jones. He was 15 at the time of his sister’s death.

In June 2011, Makayla was pronounced dead three days after emergency surgery at Akron Children’s Hospital. The cause of death was severe inflammation and infection of her abdomen from a ruptured colon. A DNA scientist from the state crime lab testified that tests of cuttings from Makayla’s underwear contained genetic profiles consistent with Makayla and D’Marques.

D’Marques Jones denied having any involvement in Makayla’s death.

Because of changes to the law, Jones’ trial was the first jury trial in Summit County Juvenile Court history.

Teodosio told Jones when he was sentenced to the Ohio Department of Youth Services Facility in January 2013 that his record must remain spotless.

“You are going to have to stay out of trouble there,” she said.

With Jones’ release date from juvenile detention looming, Walsh’s office requested that Teodosio impose the life sentence. The judge took this step Nov. 23.

The average juvenile sex offender sent to a youth detention facility is able to complete sex offender treatment in seven to nine months. Jones was in a facility for more than three years and only successfully completed half of the program, according to the prosecutor’s office.

Richard Alfieri’s Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks breaks through negative stereotypes about both elderly and gay people while portraying the development of an unlikely yet beautiful friendship.

Lily Harrison, the widow of an intolerant Baptist minister, has reached out for dance lessons from a company that sends Michael Minetti to instruct her in her condo in St. Petersburg Beach, Fla. The two get off to a bad start, lying to and insulting one another.

Longtime local star Dede Klein plays uptight Lily, whom Ryan Zarecki’s Michael assumes is a woman of privilege whose life has been easy. Nearly all of their dance lessons start out with these characters antagonizing each other, with the most delightfully witty quips coming from the snarky and distrustful Michael.

It’s fun to watch Klein start out acting proper and judgmental, but slowly let her hair down as Lily and Michael bond through dance. The sessions allow two lonely souls who have been avoiding the world to connect deeply with each other.

Alfieri has written a compact piece with a perfect structure as Lily and Michael meet for a lesson in a different style each week: swing, tango, Viennese waltz, fox trot, cha-cha and contemporary. The lessons make Lily feel alive again and the two slowly share their life stories, fears and joys with each other.

Lily and Michael harbor deep pain and need the support of one another to find renewed hope. Along the way, this touching comedy with dance and music also addresses ageism, intolerance and mortality.

Alfieri’s charming comedy has enough of an edge that it never crosses into the realm of sappy. It premiered in 2001 in Los Angeles, starring Uta Hagen and David Hyde Pierce, before running just one month on Broadway in 2003, with Polly Bergen and Mark Hamill.

The show has been translated into 14 languages and performed in more than 24 countries. It was also made into a 2014 film starring Gena Rowlands and Cheyenne Jackson. The play contains a few instances of adult language.

At Coach House, it’s a treat to watch Klein and Zarecki, an excellent acting duo, show each of their characters’ hard exteriors gradually soften. Their dancing’s a lot of fun, too, seven scenes of it (there’s a bonus lesson) choreographed by Zarecki’s wife, Katie.

Their dance even includes lifts, and it’s priceless seeing Klein’s smile as they execute them. The two actors look comfortable and natural dancing together, and Zarecki takes the graceful lead. (He’s well-known as the stage combat choreographer for Ohio Shakespeare Festival.) Klein is beautiful in several breathtaking costumes, and Zarecki carries himself with a wonderful charm and ease.

The beauty of the ending is likely to leave audience members in tears, as this comedy so skillfully taps into the heart of what makes us human.

LOUISVILLE: City school teachers are going back to work.

The Louisville Education Association voted Monday to end its strike, the union said in a news release Tuesday.

“We are anxious to have the regular teachers back in the classroom working with our students and bringing our school district and community together to move forward and heal,” Superintendent Michele Shaffer said in a message on the district’s website.

The union, which represents approximately 180 full-time and part-time educators in the Stark County district, said in its own release that a tentative agreement has not been reached.

The LEA’s release said teachers would have preferred to resume work with an agreement assuring that there would be no punishments for the work stoppage.

“Returning to work without a nonreprisal clause is a major concern for the LEA,” said Angela Emmons, the LEA spokeswoman. She said such a clause “represents the olive branch, the initiation of goodwill and the healing process for all the educational community. However, the LEA understood we needed to get back in the classrooms caring for and educating our children. We want to resume and continue the tradition of excellence we have been known to deliver in Louisville schools.”

Classes were canceled Tuesday and will resume Wednesday. Athletic events scheduled for Tuesday were to continue as scheduled.

The strike began Nov. 2.

Summit County Council has renewed a $6 million budget for Oriana House and is moving to hire a third coroner to help the short-staffed medical examiner’s office with an uptick in opioid-related deaths.

Until that third medical examiner is hired in July, the county will be farming out some autopsies at $1,000 each to out-of-county doctors.

At its Monday meeting, the county council approved $5,921,097 for the 2017 expenses for Oriana House Inc., a private and not-for-profit agency that treats the chemically dependent and coordinates with the county correctional services. The one-year contract has an option for a second year with a cost rising with inflation.

Meanwhile, the county Board of Control, which sizes up new contracts, is mulling a $20,000 deal for Dayton-area pathologist Dr. Robert Shott to examine roughly 20 bodies next year.

Jason Dodson, chief of staff for Summit County Executive Ilene Shapiro, said the county plans to spend $50,000 to $75,000 for outside help to process cadavers in the first half of 2017, after which Dr. Todd Barr will come on board as a full-time examiner.

County administrators have verbally agreed to hire Barr for $160,000 annually. Barr, currently in a fellowship in Cuyahoga County, would start as early as July.

The Summit County Medical Examiner’s office lost one of its three doctors in October, 2015. Despite being short-staffed, coroners were able to process bodies from outside Summit County for a few months. Then the opioid epidemic hit.

Law enforcement in July regularly reported a death among the dozen or so daily overdoses.

Demand for coroners has spiked nationwide.

The salary for the incoming examiner, Dodson said, will be nearly $20,000 higher than the current examiner makes.

“You’ll see that across the entire country there’s a shortage of medical examiners,” Dodson said. “I’ve been here for 10 years. It’s been by far the most difficult search to fill a position.”

A 63-year-old Norton man didn’t make it completely out of his car as another man repeatedly struck him in the head and face.

Daniel Carraway’s arm was still stuck in the seat belt when police found him unconscious in the parking lot of a Norton nightclub last November. Carraway never regained consciousness and died of his injuries.

These were among the details of Carraway’s death shared by Summit County prosecutors Tuesday during the sentencing for Robert P. Lantz Jr., who previously pleaded guilty to assaulting Carraway.

Assistant Summit County Prosecutor Jon Baumoel called Carraway’s beating death “horrific, senseless and brutal.”

Summit County Common Pleas Judge Scot Stevenson sentenced Lantz, 37, of Brunswick, to eight years in prison. He faced up to 11 years.

Lantz, who lived in New Franklin when the beating death occurred, pleaded guilty Aug. 26 to a lesser charge of involuntary manslaughter under an agreement with prosecutors. He was originally charged with murder.

Police said Lantz and Carraway, 63, had an argument on the evening of Nov. 19 at Desiree’s, 4951 Wooster Road W. Lantz was asked to leave but later returned and spoke with Carraway.

Carraway was assaulted after the two exited the back of the bar. Police found Carraway unresponsive on the ground next to his vehicle about 10:15 p.m. He was taken to Akron City Hospital where he later died.

Supporters of Lantz and Carraway said during the sentencing that such a fight was out of character for both men.

Debra Klein, Carraway’s fiancee who lived with him for 18 years, said Carraway was an ex-Marine who had been retired for a year from being a barber. She called him a caring person who would “go out of his way to avoid a fight.”

“He was attacked by a 36-year-old who had no regard for his life,” Klein said. “He was asked to leave the bar. He left, came back and bludgeoned Danny to death and ran away.”

Klein urged Stevenson to impose the maximum sentence.

“Danny’s life mattered,” she said, fighting tears.

Baumoel echoed Klein’s suggested sentence, saying Lantz only stopped beating Carraway when a nightclub employee shouted, “Stop! He’s unconscious!” He said Carraway suffered seven blows to the head.

Stuart Lippe, Lantz’s Cleveland attorney, said Lantz and Carraway were highly intoxicated. He said Lantz’s thoughts were distorted, and he lacked common sense.

“He understands his stupidity,” Lippe said. “It should never have happened.”

Lippe said his client is accepting responsibility for his actions and is remorseful. He urged Stevenson to consider a lesser sentence.

Christine Lantz, Lantz’s sister, also pleaded for leniency. She said her brother is a hard worker and a good father to his son.

“When you hear that your life can change in the blink of an eye, this incident is proof,” she said.

Lantz, who says he has since stopped drinking, said the incident was fueled by too much alcohol that caused an argument with a man he considered a friend to escalate. He apologized to the community, Carraway’s family and to Carraway.

“I take full responsibility for my actions and accept the consequences,” he said. “I never intended for this to happen in any shape or form.”

Stevenson sentenced Lantz to eight years, noting Lantz’s lack of a serious criminal record and remorsefulness. He encouraged Lantz to work on improving himself while in prison, so he will be ready to be a productive citizen when he is released.

“Maybe, in some way, you can make up for this tragedy,” Stevenson said.

Like its 16 other Summit County Metro Park sisters, the existence of Confluence on the Coventry-Akron border is noted by a big brown sign with bright yellow lettering and a maple leaf icon.

But it’s the words above the sign that explain why you probably haven’t paid it any attention yet: “Future home of...”

Since purchasing the 110 acres off North Turkeyfoot Road more than a decade ago, park staff and volunteers have been busy developing this new metro park, which is still at least a couple of years from opening to the public.

On Tuesday, Confluence took one more small step.

Biologist Rob Curtis popped the hatch on his park vehicle and passed out flats of a rare elm-leaved goldenrod to eight volunteers wearing knee-high rubber boots and carrying shovels.

Single file, they marched through wetlands and up a man-made “barren,” a dry hill with poor soil conditions, before bending to plant 300 starts.

New parks aren’t born so much as crafted, and these special goldenrod — offspring from a Cuyahoga Valley National Park site that may be the only other example of this species in Summit County — are destined to cover the hill and have their seeds carried on the wind to new locations.

After the parent goldenrod were almost accidentally killed off a couple of years ago, “we decided to have a local grower take some seed and grow these for us,” Curtis said.

Why care about the goldenrod at all?

Curtis recalled reading a recent story about a wasp from Brazil whose venom is helping to fight cancer.

“There are a lot of species that we just don’t know where it might be useful to us in the future. That’s why I’m in conservation, to protect the species we do have for future use,” he said.

The barren itself is another example of how park staff continually strive to maintain environmental balance.

When a project at Silver Creek Metro Park eliminated some wetlands in Norton, park officials were required to create wetlands of equal size somewhere else.

So at Confluence, former home of a sand and gravel operation, the land between a couple of ponds was bulldozed to reach the water table and create a swampy strip.

The excess gritty dirt formed a hill reminiscent of the kinds of deposits left behind by receding glaciers, Curtis explained. Careful thought was given to what plants would thrive in such a porous and exposed soil. The goldenrod is the third planting of the barren, with previous efforts having established other varieties ranging from colorful lupine to native cacti.

Confluence is so named because it’s where the Tuscarawas River empties into the north end of Long Lake.

Over the next few years, Metro Parks plans to install a small parking lot and hiking trail in the park, and pond fish have already been tested to confirm it will make an appropriate fishing hole.

But even then, Confluence will only be a shadow of what the region has planned for it.

Thirteen years ago, multiple agencies assembled to draft the “Confluence Regional Conservation Area Master Plan” — a blueprint for gathering 1,300 acres of land, canals, lakes and streams between Akron’s Summit Lake to the north and Coventry’s Long Lake to the south.

Such a continuous “greenbelt” would finally link the Towpath to the Portage Lakes through a network of foot, bike and water trails.

To that end, the city of Akron and the state have also purchased land in the area. Combined with Metro Parks land, nearly 260 acres have been protected to date.

As Summit County works to make that dream a reality, they will be assisted by dozens of volunteers like Alan and Debbie Casanova of Akron. The Casanovas were among eight area residents who answered the call to dig in the dirt on Tuesday.

The couple just surpassed 5,000 hours of volunteering with the park, doing things like riding bikes along the Towpath in search of people who need help, dragging out their personal telescopes to share during astronomy outings and helping to count snake populations.

Rolling up their sleeves to plant some goldenrod “is just another chance to volunteer,” Alan Casanova said.

“... in an area we’ve never been before,” his wife added.

And for now, it will remain just that: An area few have ever been before.

WASHINGTON: President-elect Donald Trump said Tuesday that anyone who burns an American flag should face unspecified “consequences,” such as jail or a loss of citizenship. But the Supreme Court has held that flag-burning is a form of speech protected by the First Amendment, and top congressional Republicans quickly distanced themselves from Trump’s views.

Trump’s words, expressed on Twitter early Tuesday morning, put him at odds with the late Justice Antonin Scalia, who was in the majority in the 1989 decision that protected flag burning.

“Nobody should be allowed to burn the American flag — if they do, there must be consequences — perhaps loss of citizenship or year in jail!” Trump said in a tweet.

It was not immediately clear what prompted the tweet.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky weighed in against Trump, saying: “The Supreme Court has held that that activity is a protected First Amendment right, a form of unpleasant speech, and in this country we have a long tradition of respecting unpleasant speech. I happen to support the Supreme Court’s decision on that matter.”

The White House echoed Tuesday that the First Amendment should prevail in such matters.

“We have a responsibility as a country” to carefully protect the rights enshrined in the Constitution, White House spokesman Josh Earnest said, adding that the burning of the U.S. flag offends most Americans, himself included.

House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy said Congress has no plans to act against flag burning.

COVENTRY TWP.: Jonathan Fillinger is glad he didn’t have to pull the trigger.

As his wife and young child hid nearby in their Robinson Avenue home shortly after 6 p.m. Monday, Fillinger, 34, trained his Springfield XD-S 9 mm handgun on an intruder about 5 feet away from him in their kitchen.

Just minutes earlier, the couple were feeding their 1½-year-old son in his highchair in the dining room of the home they purchased this past June.

“We bought out here because it is pretty quiet and nice,” Jonathan said.

Their outdoor lights were on, showing in part the long wooden fence they took all summer building to keep their son safe as he played in their large backyard. Traffic whizzed by on busy Robinson Avenue. The Fillingers’ two cars were parked in the driveway. Their Christmas tree was lit up. The side door to the home was unlocked.

Amanda Fillinger heard a noise in the kitchen.

“She said, ‘Oh my God. Somebody’s in the kitchen,’ ” Jonathan recalled Tuesday. “I get up. I go to the kitchen. I don’t know who the guy is. So I told her, ‘Get my pistol.’ ”

Amanda ran and got the handgun. Then she ran again, picked up a cellphone and called 911.

Held at gunpoint

The bizarre kitchen standoff ended peaceably about eight minutes later when Summit County sheriff’s deputies arrived and arrested Tallmadge resident Thomas R. Duncan, 51, as he stood in the Fillingers’ kitchen.

The deputies couldn’t get into the house through the side door. Duncan had locked it after he walked in.

“I held him at ­gunpoint. He seemed out of it like he didn’t know where he was at first,” Jonathan said. “He was like standing there in shock. And I was like, ‘What are you doing?’ I think he thought he was at his house for a minute. ... He had some of my belongings, which I didn’t even notice at the time.”

Amanda said she grabbed the toddler out of the highchair.

“I was holding him, sort of like in between the dining room and the ­living room. So, I was out of harm’s way but still could see if something happened to [Jonathan],” she said. “And I was watching out the front door for the cops.”

Worry over weapon

Jonathan, who has been hunting since he was 10 years old, has a concealed carry permit.

“I don’t usually carry a gun, to be honest,” he said.

As he stood in the kitchen, he worried that Duncan might have a gun, too.

“He went and started to reach into his pockets and I said, ‘OK, man, don’t reach in your pockets. I don’t know if you have a gun.’ And I was like, ‘I don’t want to shoot you. But if you reach in your pockets again I’m going to shoot you.’ …He didn’t move after that,” Jonathan said. “I had 911 on the phone. I was like, ‘You better tell the sheriffs to step it up because if he reaches in his pockets again, I don’t know if he has a gun.’ ”

The battery in Jonathan’s cellphone died. Amanda quickly gave him her phone.

Intruder takes a call

Duncan spoke a little bit during the confrontation, the Fillingers said.

“At one point [Duncan] said he wanted to go downstairs,” Amanda said.

“I was like, no, you’re not,” Jonathan said.

Then Duncan said he would just leave the house, adding “I’ll get a ride,” Jonathan said.

“I said, ‘Oh no, you’re not leaving. Your ride is on the way,’ ” Jonathan said.

At one point, the intruder answered his cellphone, Amanda said.

“He said, ‘Hello. Nothing much, man.’ He’s like, ‘Can I call you back in a little bit?’ And he hangs up like nothing’s going on,” Jonathan said. “Dude, you’re standing in somebody’s kitchen with a gun pointed at you and you’re on the phone like ‘Oh, I’m just hanging out. Let me give you a call back in a little bit.’ ”

At one point Jonathan told the 911 dispatcher that he thought Duncan wasn’t a threat “because he seemed whacked out of his mind.”

Duncan also said that “he was here with a friend, so I thought there was a second guy,” Jonathan said. But no one else was found.

Duncan was unarmed and did not put up ­resistance when the deputies arrived, the Fillingers said.

The deputies said at that point Duncan faced disorderly conduct charges because there was no forced entry and the house did not have any “No Trespassing” signs on it, the couple said.

Then they found some of the Fillingers’ belongings with Duncan, which led to the filing of burglary charges.

“I wasn’t going to press charges at first,” Jonathan said. “I thought the guy needed some help. ... I felt bad for the guy, almost.”

But after later talking with authorities, the couple said they are happy Duncan is facing burglary charges.

“We were a nervous wreck last night,” Amanda said. “You feel violated. You’re in your own home and you have your little 1½-year-old kid and you’re just having dinner. And the next thing you know, a stranger is in your kitchen and you don’t know what they’re capable of. You don’t know who it is.”

“It shook me up pretty good,” Jonathan said.

Duncan was charged with felony burglary and taken to the Summit County Jail. Sheriff’s spokesman Bill Holland said Duncan has a history of drug and burglary-related arrests.

The homeowner, Holland added, faces no criminal charges.

“I didn’t want to shoot the guy,” Jonathan said. “But if he would have been a threat or came at me or made threatening gestures, you have to do what you have to do to defend your family. ... I’ve always had a gun for home protection.”

“We’re glad nobody got hurt,” Amanda said. “Who wants to live with that the rest of their lives?”

The Ohio Board of Building Standards is investigating the head of the Summit County building department after receiving complaints from former employees about alleged misconduct.

The accusations against John Labriola, the county’s top building official, include doing work outside the scope of his certifications, issuing permits for projects that haven’t been inspected, falsifying records and steering contractors to his wife’s training company.

Labriola also was disciplined by the county in an unrelated case earlier this year for using derogatory language in the workplace and making malicious statements concerning another employee, along with other allegations, according to his personnel file.

The state Board of Building Standards agreed to launch an investigation in July after hearing complaints from at least three former employees and receiving a lengthy unsigned letter.

A state spokesman confirmed that the investigation is ongoing.

Labriola, 59, who has worked at the county since February 2009, denied the allegations.

“There are allegations that have been made but I do not believe we have done that,” he said.

“It’s not uncommon for a department to be investigated from time to time,” Labriola added. “We welcome them to do an investigation and go through the process.”

It appears to be a case of sour grapes, he said.

The state board lists the complainants as William Ross, Jared Dickey and Ronald Demyan, who all previously worked for the county, according to paperwork obtained by the Beacon Journal through a public records request.

When contacted by the newspaper, Ross, who worked for the county for about 10 years, said he left the department because he “couldn’t be associated with the unethical, illegal actions” taking place there.

He said there are numerous examples of inspectors writing up violations only to have a contractor call Labriola directly and Labriola granting approval on the spot without ever inspecting the site.

Ross also said he knows of an instance when Labriola approved plan reviews and attributed the approvals to one of the workers.

“It goes on and on. ... The existing staff is trying to do the right job,” Ross said. “Unfortunately they are being overridden and intimidated by the building official.”

Dickey and Demyan declined to comment.

Other issues

The six-page, unsigned letter outlines numerous other allegations and the author provided more than 500 pages of county records highlighting issues.

“Mr. Labriola likes to play favorites and grants favoritism to certain contractors, owners, and designers under the guise of a chief building official,” the letter says.

It also accuses him of being responsible for “at least one fire at a funeral home crematory for which he ‘performed’ inspections without actually looking at the work.”

Labriola also allegedly “has issued ‘fake’ plan approvals and certificates of occupancy” to benefit contractors, according to the letter.

The letter also alleges fire officials are unhappy with “Labriola’s complete and utter disregard to their input or authority.”

Cuyahoga Falls Fire Chief Paul Moledor is named in the complaint letter as someone who would support the claims against Labriola.

But when reached by the Beacon Journal, Moledor said local fire officials haven’t always seen eye to eye with him but they don’t have a poor working relationship as described in the letter.

“We don’t have any problems with John or the building department,” he said. “We’re able to work together.”

Suspended

Labriola’s personnel file, obtained by the Beacon Journal through a public records request, shows that he has received several glowing evaluations noting that he exceeds or far exceeds expectations.

But he also was disciplined by the county this year.

Labriola, whose annual salary is $99,320, was suspended for three days without pay in January and ordered to attend sensitivity training and sexual harassment training.

According to a letter in his personnel file, he was disciplined for “violation of county policy regarding anti-discrimination; using derogatory language regarding another employee in the workplace; making malicious statements concerning another employee; failure to follow established policies of the executive; use of profane or abusive language.”

There were no details provided about any specific incident that led to the suspension in the personnel file. But those details were revealed in an Ohio Civil Rights Commission complaint filed against Labriola by a female clerk in February.

She accused him of harassment and retaliating against her by giving her a written reprimand. She claimed he was retaliating because she filed a hostile work environment complaint with the county human resources department in October 2015.

In the paperwork filed with the commission, the clerk claimed Labriola called her a “mother f***** …” in front of two co-workers, and that she was disciplined inappropriately and was denied work that would involve her being paid more.

“Mr. Labriola has regularly used vulgar and bigoted terms, mocked people with disabilities and engaged in threatening behavior in the workplace,” she wrote.

According to a conciliation agreement and consent order between the clerk and county filed by the Civil Rights Commission in May, the county agreed to remove the written reprimand from her file and offer her any work under terms of the collective bargaining agreement.

Ethics complaint

The documents sent to the state Board of Building Standards also state that a complaint has been filed against Labriola with the Ohio Ethics Commission.

Commission Executive Director Paul Nick would not comment on whether his agency has received a complaint or whether there is an investigation, as is the agency’s policy.

The paperwork provided to the building board accuses Labriola of steering contractors to his wife’s North Canton company, Labriola Training Agency, which specializes in electrical code, and showing favoritism to those who enroll.

Jason Dodson, chief of staff for County Executive Ilene Shapiro, said the county is aware of the ongoing state investigation.

“We have advised the state that we will comply fully with the investigation,” he said. “If, as a result of the investigation, we are made aware of any issues, we will take prompt and appropriate action.

“At this time, we are not making any further comment to maintain the integrity of the investigation.”

COLUMBUS: A Somali-born student who carried out a car-and-knife attack at Ohio State University stewed over the treatment of Muslims while apparently staying under the radar of federal law enforcement, underscoring the difficulty authorities face in identifying and stopping lone wolves bent on violence.

Abdul Razak Ali Artan was not known to FBI counterterrorism authorities before Monday’s rampage, which ended with him shot to death by police and 11 people injured, a law enforcement official told the Associated Press.

That’s in contrast to several other recent attacks, including those in New York City, Orlando, Fla., and Garland, Texas, in which those blamed for the bloodshed had previously come to the attention of federal agents.

Law enforcement officials have not identified a motive for the Ohio State violence but have suggested terrorism as a possibility. FBI agents continued to search Artan’s apartment for clues, but California U.S. Rep. Adam Schiff, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, said he had seen no evidence Artan was directed by or was in communication with any overseas terrorist organization.

The mode of attack — plowing a car into civilians, then slashing victims with a butcher knife — was in keeping with the recommended tactics of jihadist propaganda. And Facebook posts that were apparently written shortly before the attack and came to light afterward show Artan nursed grievances against the U.S.

He railed against U.S. intervention in Muslim lands and warned, “If you want us Muslims to stop carrying lone wolf attacks, then make peace” with the Islamic State group.

“America! Stop interfering with other countries, especially the Muslim Ummah. We are not weak. We are not weak, remember that,” he wrote, using the Arabic term for the world’s Muslim community.

He also warned that other Muslims are in sleeper cells, “waiting for a signal. I am warning you Oh America!”

The posts were recounted by a law enforcement official who was briefed on the investigation but wasn’t authorized to discuss it publicly and spoke on the condition of anonymity.

ISIS celebrates

On Tuesday, a self-described Islamic State news agency called Artan “a soldier of the Islamic State” who “carried out the operation in response to calls to target citizens of international coalition countries.” The group has described other attackers around the world as its “soldiers” without claiming to have organized the acts of violence.

Artan’s social media rants seemed at odds with the portrait of the young man painted by neighbors and acquaintances.

Jack Ouham, owner of a market near the home on the outskirts of Columbus where Artan lived with his parents and siblings, saw him almost every day when he stopped in for snacks but never alcohol or cigarettes.

He was never angry, Ouham said.

“Very nice guy,” he said.

Honors student

Artan graduated with honors from Columbus State Community College in May, earning an associate of arts degree. A video of his graduation ceremony shows him jumping and spinning on stage and smiling broadly, drawing laughs, cheers and smiles from graduates and faculty members.

The school said he had no behavioral or disciplinary problems while there from the fall of 2014 until this past summer.

He started at Ohio State in August as a business student studying logistics management.

A law enforcement official said Artan came to the U.S. in 2014 as the child of a refugee. Artan had been living in Pakistan from 2007 to 2014. It’s not uncommon for refugees to go to a third-party country before being permanently resettled.

Federal and local authorities grappling with the pervasiveness of Islamic State propaganda — FBI Director James Comey said this year that agents had “north of 1,000” terrorism-related probes — will no doubt look to see if they missed any red flags that could have placed Artan under investigation.

Several acts of jihadist-inspired violence in the past two years have involved people known to the FBI.

The FBI investigated Omar Mateen, the gunman in the Orlando nightclub attack in June, for 10 months in 2013 after he boasted of mutual acquaintances with the Boston Marathon bombers and said things to co-workers that suggested he had radical, violent intentions.

Agents found nothing to justify continued scrutiny and closed the matter but looked into him again the next year as part of a separate investigation into a suicide bomber who attended the same Florida mosque.

Federal authorities in 2014 looked into Ahmad Khan Rahimi after he was accused of stabbing a relative and his father expressed concerns he might be a terrorist. The FBI said it found nothing in its databases tying Rahimi to terrorism and closed its review. Rahimi was charged with setting off bombs in New York and New Jersey in September; he has pleaded not guilty.

FBI counterterrorism authorities have a “number of trip wires” set up to spot would-be jihadists and have a generally good sense of people who are drawn to terrorist propaganda, which is why many who have gone on to commit violence had come under scrutiny, said Seamus Hughes, deputy director of George Washington University’s Program on Extremism.

Classes for the 60,000 students at Ohio State were canceled after the attack but resumed Tuesday. Several hundred students gathered on campus Tuesday night for a vigil intended to help in the healing process.

WASHINGTON: President-elect Donald Trump is tapping three nominees with deep ties to Washington and Wall Street to fill out his Cabinet, including former Goldman Sachs executive Steven Mnuchin as treasury secretary.

On Tuesday, Trump chose Georgia Rep. Tom Price to oversee the nation’s health care system, picking a fierce “Obamacare” critic who has championed efforts to privatize Medicare. And he selected another veteran Republican, Elaine Chao, to lead the Department of Transportation.

Mnuchin’s official announcement was expected as early as Wednesday, according to a person familiar with the decision who insisted on anonymity in order to confirm the pick ahead of time.

Mnuchin, 53, led Trump’s finance operations during the presidential campaign and become close with the president-elect and his family. But he has no government experience, which could prove a hurdle in navigating the tricky politics of Washington.

Price, picked to lead the Department of Health and Human Services after more than a decade in Congress, helped craft House Speaker Paul Ryan’s plan to privatize Medicare — a position Trump opposed in the campaign. Chao, who was the first Asian-American woman to serve in a president’s Cabinet — she served under George W. Bush — is married to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

The selections came as Trump spent Tuesday with advisers in his Manhattan skyscraper, racing through meetings with prospective administration hires as high-profile vacancies loom — none bigger than secretary of state.

At the same time, Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein delivered $3.5 million to the state of Wisconsin to guarantee a recount. Stein, who is also pursuing recounts in Pennsylvania and Michigan, has raised concerns that election results may have been hacked.

Trump has assailed the Green Party effort as a scam and separately has made unsupported claims of voter fraud in other states.

Meanwhile, Price’s selection raised questions about the incoming president’s commitment to Medicare, among other popular entitlement programs he repeatedly vowed to preserve before the election. The Georgia congressman led GOP efforts on Capitol Hill to transform Medicare into a voucher-like system, a change that if enacted would likely dramatically reduce government spending on the program that serves an estimated 57 million people.

Trump did not address Price’s position on Medicare in a statement released by his transition team. The team did not respond to subsequent questions about it.

“Chairman Price, a renowned physician, has earned a reputation for being a tireless problem solver and the go-to expert on health care policy, making him the ideal choice to serve in this capacity,” Trump said. “He is exceptionally qualified to shepherd our commitment to repeal and replace Obamacare and bring affordable and accessible health care to every American.”

Like any Cabinet official, Price would carry out the wishes of the president. And a sweeping Medicare initiative would have to go through Congress with some Democratic support, which would be unlikely.

Chao is well-known in Washington, having led the Department of Labor for several years.

Her record as labor secretary suggests she would bring a light hand to safety enforcement as transportation secretary. Under Chao at Labor, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration didn’t issue a single significant new safety regulation for four years. Mine safety inspectors were cut and inspections reduced.

Whether it’s integrating drones into the national airspace, deploying self-driving cars or “some other new technology, she’s not going to be especially inclined to second-guess the industry when they say that this will be safe,” said Thomas McGarity, a University of Texas law professor and author of Freedom to Harm, a book about the Labor Department that includes Chao’s tenure.

Like Price and Chao, Mnuchin would require Senate confirmation. If approved, Mnuchin would follow in the tradition of two previous treasury secretaries — Robert Rubin in the Clinton administration and Henry Paulson in George W. Bush’s. All had vast Wall Street experience gained from years spent working at powerhouse Goldman Sachs.

Yet unlike Rubin and Paulson and unlike President Barack Obama’s two treasury secretaries, Timothy Geithner and Jacob Lew, Mnuchin would bring no government experience to Treasury.

On Tuesday night, the president-elect summoned former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney for dinner to discuss the secretary of state job for a second time. He also met with Tennessee Sen. Bob Corker, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, having met with former CIA director David Petraeus the day before.

After his meeting, Corker told reporters, “The world needs to know that the secretary of state is someone who speaks fully for the president,” a possible jab at Romney, who aggressively opposed Trump’s candidacy.

Transition aides said Trump was likely at least a few days away from a decision.

MILWAUKEE: He’s still playing in a cold weather, Midwestern city on the lake in the Central Division, but Matthew Dellavedova’s life has changed drastically in the past five months. He’s a starting point guard now, he’s engaged and he’s financially secure after signing a staggering four-year, $38 million deal last summer with the Milwaukee Bucks.

“What is it? The most stressful things are a city change, a job change and an engagement,” Dellavedova said with a laugh Tuesday morning. “I’m only joking. It’s been really good.”

He faced his old team Tuesday night and squared off against Kyrie Irving for the first time as an opponent. The practice battles between Della­vedova and Irving often turned heated, particularly early in their careers, because Dellavedova only knows one gear. It’s a big reason why he earned such a whopping contract in free agency despite serving as a reserve his first three years in the NBA.

The Cavs were hopeful entering free agency to match whatever offer he received, but given their cap situation, the Bucks’ overwhelming offer was simply too much. It has left coach Tyronn Lue scrambling this season to fill the void caused by Dellavedova’s departure.

That has done little to slow what has been a juggernaut offensively, but one month into the season, the backup point guard role remains the most unsettled position on the Cavs.

“It was going to be tough because he was a big part of what we’ve done over the last three years,” Lue said. “And with Mo [Williams] coming in last year and having a year under his belt, we felt like we could probably go with Mo and he could give us some great backup minutes and then when he retired, and came back, retired, came back, retired, it kind of put us in a bind and we weren’t able to make a quick enough decision to try to get a veteran point guard.”

The Cavs have used a rotation of Iman Shumpert, Kay Felder and DeAndre Liggins at point guard.

“I like our young guys,” Lue said. “But with what we’re trying to do, it’s not really enough time to try to grow and develop someone and try to win a championship.”

Dellavedova was disappointed he had to play for the qualifying offer last season. He was hoping for a long-term offer from the Cavs so he could move out of his apartment and start to put down roots in Cleveland, but it never came. And his status as a restricted free agent prevented other teams from aggressively pursuing him. He became a key piece to the Cavs’ system last season, although he faded down the stretch and was replaced by Williams in the NBA Finals. But he performed well enough to command the contract from the rebuilding Bucks.

He’s averaging 7.9 points and 6.3 assists, both career highs, but he’s shooting 34 percent from 3-point range after shooting 41 percent last season.

He hasn’t spent much time watching his former team, although he did see the opener when the players got their rings and he was disappointed to miss the White House visit — the Bucks had a game that night. Dellavedova has not received his ring yet, but expects to get it when Milwaukee visits Cleveland in December.

“It was tough to decide to leave because you’re coming off the highest of highs and I loved my time in Cleveland,” Della­vedova said. “Fun team, great group of guys, great organization and fans, obviously. But I had an opportunity here that I couldn’t pass up to see how good I could be as a starting point guard and really challenge myself.

MILWAUKEE: With 3:49 left in the third quarter and the Cavaliers behind by 11, Cavs coach Tyronn Lue had seen enough. Enough of the uncontested drives through the middle of the defense, enough of the highlight-reel dunks and enough of J.R. being J.R.

Lue yanked all of his regulars and went with a hockey line change of little-used reserves, including Chris Andersen, Jordan McRae and James Jones, signaling the end of the Cavs’ winning streak in their lethargic 118-101 loss at the last-place Milwaukee Bucks.

The long and athletic Bucks shot 57 percent in the first half and pummeled the Cavs at the rim. Fourteen of their first 16 points in the second quarter were scored in the lane and they ended the night with 68 points in the paint, compared to just 32 for the Cavs.

Budding star Giannis Antetokounmpo matched his career high with 34 points on a night the Bucks dominated.

Smith, meanwhile, became distracted during an inbounds play in the first half. He wandered completely off the floor to hug Bucks reserve Jason Terry in the midst of the game while Tony Snell, whom Smith was supposed to be guarding, clapped his hands in disbelief and took the inbounds pass for an easy basket. Most of the Bucks’ baskets came rather easily.

The Cavs were supposed to practice Monday in Philadelphia, but Lue gave them the day off after playing his starters heavy minutes Sunday against the Sixers. They responded with their worst performance of the season and will assuredly be back on the practice floor at the Cleveland Clinic Courts on Wednesday in advance of a tough back-to-back against the Los Angeles Clippers and the Chicago Bulls.

The Cavs have struggled defensively at various turns this season, but they’ve typically been able to outshoot their mistakes. Not on this night.

Lue went back to his starters to begin the fourth quarter, but by then they trailed 92-74. LeBron James scored 22 points, but committed a season-high seven turnovers. James now has 16 turnovers in his past three games. Kyrie Irving scored 20 points, including 11 in the second quarter. Kevin Love scored 13 points and grabbed 13 rebounds one day after he was named Player of the Week in the East. The Cavs committed 20 turnovers and trailed by as many as 22 in the fourth quarter.

The loss made a winner out of Matthew Della­vedova in his first game against his old team. The Cavs did not match the four-year, $38 million offer the Bucks gave him as a restricted free agent. Dellavedova scored three points and passed for seven assists, but Anteto­kounmpo did the bulk of the damage.

Along with matching his career high in scoring, Antetokounmpo grabbed 12 rebounds and dominated the Cavs inside. Jabari Parker scored 18 points and Michael Beasley scored 17 off the bench for the Bucks.

Never change J.R. (via @TheCauldron) https://t.co/WALVUmKTin

— The Crossover (@TheCrossover) November 30, 2016

1.     On a night the Cavs gave up 68 points in the paint and Tyronn Lue yanked all of his starters off the floor with 3:49 left in the third, on a night LeBron James committed a season-high seven turnovers and the Cavs were blown out by the last-place team in the Central Division … none of that was the strangest part of the night.

2.     No, no. The strangest play of the night goes to J.R. Smith, who temporarily forgot he was in the game late in the second quarter, then chose to deny remembering he was in the game after the game. Follow along…

3.     When the Bucks were setting up for an inbounds play with 2:57 left in the second quarter, Smith saw Jason Terry on the Bucks’ bench and went over to hug him and say hello. During the game. Tony Snell, the man he was supposed to be guarding, seemed as surprised as anyone. He clapped for the ball immediately, Matthew Dellavedova zipped the pass to him and the Bucks got an easy dunk while Iman Shumpert and Tristan Thompson stood on the court staring at Smith in disbelief.

4.     Now, there are plenty of ways for Smith to handle this temporary lapse in judgment. He could’ve said he blew it, he didn’t know they were inbounding the ball so quickly and that it wouldn’t happen again. Or he could put on a ski mask and deny knowing he was in the game. J.R. being J.R., he chose B.

5.     Smith obviously knew he screwed up and didn’t want to talk about it. Fine. But he somehow managed to bring even more attention to an already attention-worthy gaffe. The video is better than anything I can write about it.

6.     Why was he wearing a ski mask? Good question.

7.     J.R. Smith folks, a national treasure.

8.     Tyronn Lue hadn’t seen the play yet, but didn’t seem nearly as amused by it. It’s the type of play and reaction Smith would get crushed for on a losing team, but since the Cavs are winning, it’s dismissed as J.R. being J.R.

9.     But that on-court sequence was a perfect illustration to a night when the Cavs just didn’t have it. The Bucks attacked the center of their defense all night with little resistance. As Lue pointed out, they scored 118 points on just seven 3-pointers. Giannis Antetokounmpo matched his career-high with 34 points and grabbed 12 rebounds to go with five steals and five assists.

10.  The Cavs have struggled at times defensively this season, but they’ve been able to outshoot the mistakes. Not this time. The Bucks had 13 dunks, many of them complete with running starts and full windups. Antetokounmpo accounted for five of the dunks, while Jabari Parker had four.

11.  Lue finally yanked the starters late in the third quarter because he didn’t like the lack of physicality, which was easy to see. Fourteen of their first 16 points in the second quarter came in the paint, turning what was a 14-point first-quarter lead into a 46-39 lead that grew throughout the rest of the night.

12.  “We just didn’t match their physicality,” Lue said. “They ran some stuff that we showed they were going to run, but I just thought they were more physical. I just thought we didn’t match their intensity.”

13.  James dismissed this as one of those nights in the league. The Cavs were embarrassed by the Bucks on the same night the Magic won at San Antonio and the Nets beat the Clippers in double overtime. So sure, these things happen.

14.  But the lack of effort was alarming. This isn’t a team that should be tired. Lue canceled Monday’s practice in Philadelphia because he played the starters extended minutes Sunday to get the win. They have played four games in the last seven days, hardly taxing by NBA standards, and in fact it’s really four games in 11 days. Still, James wasn’t concerned, mimicking crumpling up a piece of paper and throwing it away to describe the night.

15.  “Move on,” he said. “You just crumple it up and move on to the next.”

16.  Matthew Dellavedova made a late appearance in the Cavs locker room after the Bucks victory to say hello to some old faces. Dellavedova has new clothes after signing that $38 million deal and James and Smith let him know they noticed.

17.  The Cavs had the opportunity to lock Dellavedova into a long-term deal prior to last season, but elected instead to leave him with the qualifying offer. That is what led to the monster offer from the Bucks when the cap exploded and left the Cavs with a hole they still haven’t filled.

18.  Of course, it’s the only hole on a team poised for a third consecutive trip to the Finals, and Dellavedova fell off so badly at the end of last season that Lue turned back to Mo Williams during the Finals.

19.  James will serve as the backup point guard to Kyrie Irving – provided he gets a handle on these turnovers. James has committed 16 turnovers now in his last three games and called four of Tuesday’s unforced.

20.  Now the Cavs begin a difficult stretch. They host the Clippers on Thursday, then begin a three-game road swing through Chicago, Toronto and New York. The combined record of the next three opponents is 35-17. Even the Knicks are playing a bit better of late. Talk to you Thursday from the Q.
