The Marshall football coaching staff, led by head coach John “Doc” Holliday” dropped in Monday night on the Mason-Gallia-Meigs Big Green Club in Gallipolis to present their ofﬁcial 2016 recruiting class. And one of those recruits is from the Ohio Valley. Before introducing the newest crop of prospective Thundering Herd players, Holliday talked about the Marshall recruiting process. He said recruiting is “really simple” in terms of getting players to visit Marshall and commit to the program. “It starts with tradition. It starts with history,” he said. “It also starts with the people we have on campus. When we talk about recruiting, it starts years in advance. … I didn’t want to be a football coach anywhere where expectations aren’t extremely high and where we couldn’t compete for championships every year.” Holliday is entering his seventh season as head coach of the Herd, amassing a 50-28 record since taking over in 2010. His teams are 4-0 in bowl games, with wins in Beef O’Brady Bowl, Military Bowl, Boca Raton Bowl and St. Petersburg Bowl. Holliday’s 2014 Thundering Herd won the school’s ﬁrst Conference USA championship with a win over Louisiana Tech. He was named the conference’s Coach of the Year that season. Jacob Hill, president of the local MGM Big Green Club, said Holliday visits every year to show the group video clips and talk about the Herd’s newest recruits for the upcoming season. Monday’s event also serves as a fundraiser to support Marshall University athletics. “It’s a great event,” he said. “Every year, our club raises a little more than $10,000 to give back to Marshall.” OHIO VALLEY — The ﬁrst two cases of the Zika virus has been reported in Ohio, according to the Ohio Department of Health, in that of a 30-year-old Cleveland woman and a 21-year-old Stark County man. Both returned from Haiti, although the cases are not linked. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, before this ﬁrst case reported in Ohio, there were 35 other cases reported in 12 other states and Washington, D.C. According to the Ohio Department of Health, this particular virus is mainly transferred through the bite from a mosquito, and has mainly been reported in South America. According to the Ohio Department of Health, 80 percent of those who are infected with the virus do no show symptoms. “There is no vaccine available for Zika virus so it’s important for Ohioans traveling to affected areas to take steps to prevent mosquito bites,” Dr. Mary DiOrio, medical director of the Ohio Department of Health, said in a press release. “There have been no reported cases of Zika virus disease transmission through mosquito bites anywhere in the continental U.S.” So while Ohio does have its ﬁrst case, Meigs County Emergency Response Coordinator Frank Gorscak said the main concern should be with any Ohio Valley residents who have recently returned from an affected country. “It’s not endemic to Ohio or most of North America, which means that it’s not a native disease, but people can get infected and bring it back in,” he said.

A ‘golden’ opportunity Golden retriever serves as ‘comfort dog’ By Sandra Philson For the Sentinel SYRACUSE — Carleton School and Meigs Industries each were recently visited by “Comfort Dog,” Halle, who belongs to Steve Trotta, physical therapist from Ohio University Therapy Associates. Halle is a 3.5-year-old blonde golden retriever. Halle is training to be a comfort dog that can decrease anxieties, fears and stress of individuals. She has been through obedience training and continues to train to recognize individuals in need of her services. Halle brought big smiles and happiness to many of the adults and students at Carleton School and Meigs Industries today. Adults and students who normally do not pay much attention to their surroundings were even quick to extend a hand to pet her today. Animal-assisted therapy with therapy dogs, like Halle, offers a number of psychological and physical beneﬁts, from easing anxiety to lowering blood pressure. In fact, studies show that simply touching a therapy dog for 12 minutes can lower levels of stress hormone epinephrine by 17 percent, reduce blood pressure by 10 percent and decrease anxiety by 24 percent. Simply being around a therapy dog has a calming effect on both mind and body. The beneﬁts of animal-assisted therapy are effective, even with shortterm exposure. Research shows that AAT is beneﬁcial to a range of people, such as children who have experienced neglect or abuse, people experiencing posttraumatic stress disorder, children and adults experiencing depression, stress and anxiety, individuals dealing with medical issues such as cancer, adults with memory disorders or dementias, those who live with autism, obsessive compulsive disorder, or attention deﬁcit hyperactive disorder and anyone needing an unconditional, nonjudgmental space in which to work through issues.

During the summer, work involves mowing and ditching and road repair. The job requires a variety of skill, including driving the salt trucks and snow plows at consistent speeds between 25 mph and 30 mph. Today, crews were replacing blades on plows, readying them for the night’s work ahead. “We go through a lot of blades. The roads are hard on the equipment, especially the blades,” Weber said. Meigs ODOT ofﬁcials they are proud of their crew, and special accolades are given to Dan Davis, winner of the statewide Rodeo Challenge. Davis competed in the Challenge, whose measures include both written and driving tests as well knowledge of the proper mix of materials used for snow removal. “One of the tests is to drive a fully equipped snow plow through an obstacle coarse,” Davis said. ” I enjoy competing and putting my skills to the test.” “We are always getting training here at ODOT,” Davis said. “There is always something new to learn, new safety mea- sures to train for, new equipment to manage.” The newest and now most popular material for snow and ice removal is “beet juice” mixed with salt brine. “The mixture is made right here in our garage,” Weber said. “All the mixtures are, as well as the decisions as to what works best as conditions present themselves.” So one last word of caution for drivers: Slow down and “don’t crowd the plow.” For up-to-the-minute winter road conditions, visiting www. ohgo.com.

There really are ways to enjoy a unique and memorable February 14 without overspending. Here are 10 ideas to warm their heart and spare your wallet: Begin at the beginning. Maybe your relationship began at work, a party or a bus stop. Returning to that place and re-stage that moment using little props can re-capture memories. Try a little due diligence. Ask your signiﬁcant other or friend about his or her best Valentine’s Day ever. Listen for clues about gifts, activities or places you might try. Don’t wait until 48 hours before the holiday; you can always collect creative Valentine’s Day ideas 365 days a year. Stay near the stove. A fabulous dinner almost always costs less at home. Plus, it’s a more intimate setting and shows dedication and thought. Deliver kindness, not presents. Instead of wrapped gifts, what about chores or crafts? Focus on a gift based on something you know how to do rather than something you could just buy. If it’s a night out, do your homework. Valentine’s Day can be one of the most crowded and expensive nights to go out. If you have a restaurant or event in mind, research everything you can about the food, ambiance and specials at various times of day – particularly during early, ﬁxed-price periods and slower days of the week. Grab those coupons, free passes and points. Mileage, restaurants and online discount clubs can offer a range of options. Points can be used for discounts or free nights out on Valentine’s Day or immediate dates. Decide which offers are the best deals and leverage them the best that you can. Consider substitutions and alternatives. Why have that glass of champagne or celebratory cocktail at the restaurant if there’s a happy hour nearby where you can save a little money? Consider mixing and matching venues on a night out to save money. Declare a staycation. Visit museums on halfprice days or out-of-the-way eateries you always thought about trying. Even local hotels might be a better deal than traveling a greater distance. You don’t have to run for the roses. A dozen roses are a classic gift. But there are potentially cheaper and equally beautiful ﬂower alternatives. If your loved one has a green thumb, consider potted plants or seeds they can sow later. Remember, spring is right around the corner. If you must bling, bling responsibly. If this Valentine’s Day involves a wedding engagement or another grand gesture of romance, plan well in advance so you can get advice on what you’re buying and ensure it’s in line with your loved one’s taste. Maybe a relative with a beautiful ring might offer it or sell it at a friendly price. Bottom line: Valentine’s Day is about the people, not the bill. A little time and creativity can help you devise a memorable day without digging too far into savings. Nathaniel Sillin directs Visa’s financial education programs.

More than 40 U.S.-based oil and gas exploration and production ﬁrms went bankrupt in 2015. Experts generally expect oil prices to remain low for the rest of this year and probably longer. So don’t be surprised if that bankruptcy wave becomes a tsunami in 2016. Or if U.S. production declines and more oil workers lose their jobs. Until now, after oil prices have gone down, they’ve always bounced back up. But no law of physics mandates this gravitydefying pattern. Sooner or later, better alternatives to powering transportation with oil-derived fuels will become dominant. Will electric vehicles charged with renewable energy, hydrogen fuel cells, or something else prevail? Whatever technology supplants oil, it surely won’t foul land, water, and air to the same degree. It probably won’t subject millions of people to the economic hardship that accompanies oil shocks. And it might avert climate chaos. Restoring prices to the $100-perbarrel range would keep more oil companies in business. But that wouldn’t solve the world’s real energy problems.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Feb. 10, 1996, world chess champion Garry Kasparov lost the ﬁrst game of a match in Philadelphia against an IBM computer dubbed “Deep Blue.” (Kasparov ended up winning the match, 4 games to 2; he was defeated by Deep Blue in a rematch the following year.) On this date: In 1763, Britain, Spain and France signed the Treaty of Paris, ending the Seven Years’ War (also known as the French and Indian War in North America). In 1840, Britain’s Queen Victoria married Prince Albert of SaxeCoburg and Gotha. In 1936, Nazi Germany’s Reichstag passed a law investing the Gestapo secret police with absolute authority exempt from any legal review. In 1949, Arthur Miller’s play “Death of a Salesman” opened at Broadway’s Morosco Theater with Lee J. Cobb as Willy Loman. In 1959, a major tornado tore through the St. Louis area, killing 21 people and causing heavy damage. In 1962, the Soviet Union exchanged captured American U-2 pilot Francis Gary Powers for Rudolf Abel, a Soviet spy held by the United States. Republican George W. Romney announced his ultimately successful candidacy for governor of Michigan. In 1966, the Jacqueline Susann novel “Valley of the Dolls” was published by Bernard Geis Associates.

It needed to be changed by getting guys (who feel) football (is) important to them. We take great pride in our program. There is nowhere to hide. We expect our kids to go to class. If they’re not tough and they don’t love it, they won’t survive.” Mike Hamrick, Marshall’s director of athletics, said fans will see this year’s recruiting class rack up awards such as all-conference, conference player of the year, defensive player of the year and others in seasons to come. “Since coach Holliday has arrived here, we’ve had 16 players win one of those awards,” he said. “There’s no other school in Conference Virus microcephaly, which is a birth defect that can cause a smaller cranium and brain in babies. “It’s not yet known if Zika is the direct clinical cause (of microcephaly) or if (the Zika virus) works in combination with other causes,” he said. So far, research hasn’t suggested that this virus can be transmitted through casual contact from person to person, but it’s being investigated on whether or not it can be directly transferred through spit and sweat, Gorscak said. According to ODH, ofﬁcials are currently investigating whether the Zika virus was sexually transmitted between two partners in Texas — one of whom had recently returned from an affected country. When it comes to sexual contact and pregnancy, regarding the Zika virus the CDC is recommending that pregnant sex partner abstain from sexual activity or consistently and correctly use condoms during sex for the duration of the pregnancy.

GAHS claw past Bulldogs in sectional By Paul Boggs pboggs@civitasmedia.com LOGAN — Gallia Academy indeed encountered a roller-coaster from the free-throw line on Monday night. In the end, however, the ride of this season goes on for the Blue Angels. In attempting 32 free throws, but making only 13, the Blue Angels amassed enough to slip past the Athens Bulldogs 43-40 in a Division II girls basketball sectional tournament tilt inside Jim Myers Gymnasium. Of those 32 freebies, 21 were in the fourth quarter, as Gallia Academy only made nine — but had the entire fourth frame in which to sink them. Coupled with some defensive stops after Athens staged at least three rallies from down six or seven points, and the Blue Angels improved to 4-19 while advancing to tonight’s (Wednesday, Feb. 10) Division II sectional semiﬁnal against top-seeded Warren. The Blue Angels entered Monday’s matchup as the ninth seed, while the Bulldogs (5-16) were the eighth seed in the Logan sectional. Gallia Academy overcame a three-point second period to trail 19-15 with four-and-a-half minutes remaining, extending their lead to as much as seven in the second half twice. The Blue Angels held a 28-21 advantage with only two minutes left in the third quarter, before erasing a 30-29 deﬁcit with a 10-2 run to lead 39-32 exactly eight-anda-half minutes later. By the 5:40 mark of the fourth, Gallia Academy already was in the one-and-one free-throw situation, before the double-bonus went into effect with 1:47 to play. While the Blue Angels only made 41-percent of their foul shots, they drained the most crucial ones — and even missed attempts turned into offensive rebounds which kept possessions alive. “We had key rebounds off of our missed free throws. I told them in the huddle that free throws and rebounding will win the basketball game and it did,” said GAHS coach Joe Justice. “We did a good job rebounding on both ends, even though we didn’t make many free throws.” In a span of 50 seconds in the double bonus, the Blue Angels only made 3-of-8, and thus nursed a 40-37 lead inside of a minute. But Athens’ Taylor Gregory — after her rebound putback made it 39-37 GAHS at the one-minute mark —missed a game-tying threepoint attempt and Carley Shriver secured the rebound with 39 seconds to play. Shriver sank calmly both free throws, as Athens’ Alexis McCollum missed another trey try with 21 seconds showing, as Jalea Caldwell collared the rebound for Gallia Academy. Caldwell split her two tosses for a 43-37 cushion, as McCollum canned a buzzer-beating triple for the 43-40 ﬁnal. Although, that was the ﬁnal of only ﬁve made threes for the Bulldogs, which attempted 21 for only 24-percent. Athens held a 16-14 advantage in total ﬁeld goals, but got to the freethrow line only ﬁve times — four in the ﬁrst half and none in the entire fourth quarter. Sophie Miller split a pair in the ﬁrst quarter and Emma Harter likewise in the second, as Lauren Abdella’s old-fashioned three-point play with 1:48 left in the third was the team’s only other attempt. For the Blue Angels, Caldwell made three foul shots in the fourth and Jordan Walker two, along with a split of tosses by Hunter Copley and Adrienne Jenkins. The Bulldogs committed 18 fouls compared to only 10 for Gallia Academy. Walker made a pair of freebies at the 6:10 mark of the third as well, as Caldwell led all Angels with 11 points, while Jenkins and Walker wound up with 10 apiece and Copley eight. Hanna Johnson’s ﬁrst-quarter ﬁeld goal for Gallia Academy tied the game at 2-2. Shriver and Jenkins grabbed six rebounds apiece for the Blue Angels, as Walker wound up with ﬁve while Caldwell collected four assists. The Blue Angels regained the lead only 15 seconds into the third quarter, and held it for the entire eight minutes, as Gallia Academy opened the ﬁrst six minutes of the quarter with their initial 10-2 run — capped by a Caldwell layup. However, Abdella’s three-point play, a McCollum layup and a Gregory buzzer-beating jumper tied the bout at 28-28. Copley canned a free throw to give Gallia Academy a 29-28 edge only 34 seconds into the fourth, but Miller made a driving layup to give the Bulldogs their ﬁnal lead at 30-29 with 5:22 to go. That’s when the Angels attacked with their decisive 10-2 run, jumpstarted by Jenkins sticking back a missed free throw and Caldwell scoring the next six points. Jenkins and Walker each made free throws for the 39-32 lead with a minute-and-a-half remaining — and Miller out of the game with ﬁve fouls for Athens. Miller led the Bulldogs with 11 points on ﬁve ﬁeld goals, as McCollum added eight and Harter, Gregory and Abdella seven points apiece. McCollum, Harter and Gregory combined for all ﬁve of Athens’ trifectas, including McCollum’s and Gregory’s corner three-balls, before See GAHS | 10 �CLASSIFIEDS Daily Sentinel Notices Help Wanted General NOTICE OHIO VALLEY PUBLISHING CO.

Lady Defenders outlast Wahama, 32-25 By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com GALLIPOLIS — The Lady Falcons never trailed before halftime. The same couldn’t be said from there. The Ohio Valley Christian girls made a 21-14 second half charge and handed visiting Wahama its 63rd consecutive setback Monday night following a 32-25 victory in a non-conference matchup in Gallia County. The Lady Falcons (0-20) twice led by seven points in the opening half, but the host Lady Defenders (6-10) rallied to knot things up at 11-all headed into the break. OVCS never trailed after the intermission and eventually battled its way out to a 19-17 edge through three periods of play, then the Blue and White opened the fourth with a 9-3 run to secure their largest lead of the game at 28-20 with 3:21 left in regulation. WHS — which committed nine turnovers in the fourth quarter — charged back to within four points (28-24) following a basket by Maddy VanMatre with 2:56 left. The Red and White, however, were never closer as Ohio Valley Christian closed the game on a 4-1 run to wrap up the sevenpoint outcome. The Lady Falcons — who have now lost 62 consecutive basketball games — led 7-2 midway through the ﬁrst canto, then neither team scored the remainder of the way. OVCS also trailed 11-4 two minutes into the second stanza, but Rachel Sargent scored ﬁve of the hosts’ next seven points to knot things up at halftime. Sargent — who ﬁnished the night with game-highs of 15 points and 16 rebounds — also gave the Lady Defenders a permanent advantage (19-17) following a pair of successful free throws with 52.9 seconds left in the third quarter. OVCS connected on 10-of-38 ﬁeld goal attempts for 26 percent, including a 2-of-9 effort from three-point range for 26 percent. The hosts committed 19 turnovers and also went 10-of-37 at the free throw line for 27 percent. Katie Bradley followed Sargent with 12 points and nine rebounds, while Kristen Durst and Emily Childers respectively rounded out the winning tally with four points and one point. The Lady Falcons netted 10-of-61 shot attempts for 16 percent, which included a 1-of-15 effort from behind the arc for seven percent. WHS committed 17 turnovers and also went 4-of-8 at the charity stripe for 50 percent. Olivia Hill paced Wahama with 13 points, followed by VanMatre with six markers and a team-best 14 rebounds. Faith Henry added three points, Kumber Bowyer scored two markers and Lauren Bissell rounded out the scoring with one point. Both teams hauled in 38 rebounds total, including 13 apiece by each squad on the offensive glass. Bryan Walters can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2101. MEIGS COUNTY Visitors Guide 2016 DENVER (AP) — It took John Elway 15 years to experience a parade as a quarterback. As an executive, only ﬁve. The Broncos general manager, however, won’t have much time to celebrate. Fresh challenges await the architect of Denver’s third NFL championship. Job No. 1 is keeping this destructive defense together. That starts with resigning Super Bowl 50 MVP Von Miller, whose monster game helped Peyton Manning become the NFL’s ﬁrst 200game winner and set the stage for him to walk away a champion as Elway did 17 years ago. Elway wants to keep Brock Osweiler, who’s set to become a free agent. Manning and Miller were the biggest topics when Elway and coach Gary Kubiak met with the media before the Broncos parade through downtown Tuesday. They again lauded the wicked defense that snatched both the leather and the silver footballs from Cam Newton’s grasp Sunday night in Santa Clara, California. “I can still remember about a week into training camp I looked at Gary and said, ‘I think we are going to be a pretty darn good defense,’” Elway said. “To do what they did against a quarterback who is probably as good as anyone in the league was historic.” While a franchise tag could buy Elway time to work out a deal with Miller that’s sure to top the $52.5 million guaranteed in Justin Houston’s contract, the Broncos could ﬁnd themselves in a quarterback quandary if Manning retires and somebody outbids them for Osweiler. Elway reiterated that he has no timetable for Manning to make up his mind about his future. Manning, whose offense managed a measly 194 yards in Sunday’s 24-10 win, turns 40 next month. He’s due $19 million next season in the ﬁnal year of his contract. “We will give him time,” Elway said. “It’s up to Peyton, where he is, what he Roads From Page 6 face top-seeded Unioto (18-0) in the semiﬁnals at 6:15 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 17, and the sectional ﬁnal at SEHS will be held at 7 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 20. thinks he can do, how he thinks he can play. You get 99 percent there in your mind, and then one percent is just as hard.” Manning’s father, Archie, said after the game he felt his son was “done in Denver,” if not everywhere else. The Broncos went 5-2 in Osweiler’s starts, although Manning had to rescue them in the season ﬁnale, reclaiming the starting position for the playoffs. Elway praised Kubiak for his handling of the delicate quarterback situation over the last half of the season when Manning was sidelined with an injured left foot before reclaiming his starting job. “It was touchy. The way he dealt with that is what takes a coach from being good to great,” Elway said. Osweiler is sure to get attention from quarterback-starved teams, but he’s more valuable to the Broncos because he knows their system, has been through a Super Bowl run with them and was under Manning’s wing for four years. But is Osweiler worth the megabucks and long-term deal he could get from someone else? There are other difﬁcult choices ahead, including those involving linebacker Danny Trevathan and defensive lineman Malik Jackson, pending free agents without whom the parade of ﬁretrucks might have been winding through the streets of Charlotte, North Carolina, instead. “They are all priorities,” Elway said. “Getting Derek Wolfe (four years, $36.7 million) done was the ﬁrst step, and we want to get Danny and Malik done. We want to try and keep the group together. But it’s a ﬂuid process. We will talk to their representatives and see where we are at and get a feel for it.” After staying out of the fray last week, the Broncos have been busy bragging. They proclaimed after the game that they’re better than the Steel Curtain defense, the ‘85 Bears, the 2000 Ravens or the ‘02 Bucs.
