The waiting list for the veterans home in Georgetown in southern Ohio currently stands at 43 for both nursing home and memory care residents, with fewer than one of every two of its 168 beds currently ﬁlled. The waiting list is 88 at the home in Sandusky for nursing home residents and 30 for the independent living unit. About two of every three of Sandusky’s total of 633 beds are currently ﬁlled. Occupancy rates were above 90% prepandemic. The decision to stop accepting new residents in March of last year was safety related, said Jeff Rapp, spokesperson for the Ohio Department of Veterans Services. The agency reduced entry points to the facilities, added screening for everyone who enters, improved air ﬂow, and reconﬁgured some areas to create quarantine units for symptomatic COVID-19 patients, among other measures. The Sandusky facility has seen 157 cases and 44 conﬁrmed and probable deaths, with 82 cases and 17 deaths at the Georgetown facility. Full occupancy is difﬁcult because of residents’ changing health needs, Rapp said. In Georgetown, for example, two rooms and four beds are currently being used as a nursing station. Veterans Services is looking at the possibility of allowing new admissions again with nearly all residents having had at least the ﬁrst vaccine doses and both facilities now being free of COVID-19 cases, Rapp said. He called the decision to put admissions on hold a difﬁcult one but necessary “to achieve maximum safety for our veterans and staff.” One of the vets hoping See VETERANS | 2 �OBITUARIES/NEWS 2 Thursday, February 18, 2021 Rush Limbaugh, ‘voice of American conservatism,’ has died By Matt Sedensky Forbes magazine estimated his 2018 income at $84 million, ranking him only behind Howard Rush Limbaugh, the Stern among radio pertalk radio host who ripped sonalities. into liberals and laid waste Limbaugh took as a to political correctness badge of honor the title with a gleeful malice that “most dangerous man in made him one of the most America.” He said he was powerful voices in politics, the “truth detector,” the inﬂuencing the rightward “doctor of democracy,” push of American cona “lover of mankind,” a servatism and the rise Eric Risberg | AP file “harmless, lovable little of Donald Trump, died Rush Limbaugh, the talk radio host who became the voice of fuzz ball” and an “allWednesday.

In Delaware, the veterans home has not been accepting new residents because of the coronavirus and currently has only 56 residents, less than half its capacity of 144. The total number of staff is 176. The Vermont facility stopped taking new admissions in March, resumed in the summer by taking one or two veterans a week, and then stopped again in December following a coronavirus outbreak. The current waiting list is about 15. “Family members are calling every day, ‘Hey, we really want to get our loved one in there,’ but they’re also understanding of our current pause,” Jackson said.

There are 316 days left in the year. Heart disease is often thought of as a men’s health issue, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. According to the CDC, heart disease is the leading cause of death for women in the United States. Women may not always experience the classic symptoms such as chest pain, in fact, some do not notice any symptoms at all. However, by staying educated about how heart disease affects women, they can learn to recognize the symptoms that point to heart disease that they may otherwise be brushed off as something less serious. Today’s Highlight in History: On Feb. 18, 1970, the “Chicago Seven” defendants were found not guilty of conspiring to incite riots at the 1968 Democratic national convention; ﬁve were convicted of violating the Anti-Riot Act of 1968 (those convictions were later reversed). On this date: In 1546, Martin Luther, leader of the Protestant Reformation in Germany, died in Eisleben. In 1564, artist Michelangelo died in Rome. In 1930, photographic evidence of Pluto (now designated a “dwarf planet”) was discovered by Clyde W. Tombaugh at Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona. In 1943, Madame Chiang Kai-shek, wife of the Chinese leader, addressed members of the Senate and then the House, becoming the ﬁrst Chinese national to address both houses of the U.S. Congress. In 1960, the 8th Winter Olympic Games were formally opened in Squaw Valley, California, by Vice President Richard M. Nixon. In 1967, American theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer died in Princeton, New Jersey, at age 62. In 1972, the California Supreme Court struck down the state’s death penalty. In 1983, 13 people were shot to death at a gambling club in Seattle’s Chinatown in what became known as the Wah Mee Massacre. (Two men were convicted of the killings and are serving life sentences; a third was found guilty of robbery and assault.) In 1988, Anthony M. Kennedy was sworn in as an associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. In 1997, astronauts on the space shuttle Discovery completed their tune-up of the Hubble Space Telescope after 33 hours of spacewalking; the Hubble was then released using the shuttle’s crane. In 2001, veteran FBI agent Robert Philip Hanssen was arrested, accused of spying for Russia. (Hanssen later pleaded guilty to espionage and attempted espionage and was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.) Auto racing star Dale Earnhardt Sr. died in a crash at the Daytona 500; he was 49. In 2003, an arson attack involving two South Korean subway trains in the city of Daegu claimed 198 lives. (The arsonist was sentenced to life in prison, where he died in 2004.) Symptoms and Warning Signs Listening to your body and not ignoring the following signs and symptoms of heart disease can get you the care and treatment you need to improve your heart health. Symptoms women may experience that are unrelated to chest pain, but could point to serious heart disease are: Unusual fatigue and helps to protect the heart and keep it supple, and after menopause that protective element is greatly diminished.

Exercise; Eat a heart-healthy diet; Another icy storm looms By Paul J. Weber and Jill Bleed Associated Press AUSTIN, Texas — Utility crews raced Wednesday to restore power to nearly 3.4 million customers around the U.S. who were still without electricity in the aftermath of a deadly winter storm, and another blast of ice and snow threatened to sow more chaos. The latest storm front was expected to bring more hardship to states that are unaccustomed to such frigid weather — parts of Texas, Arkansas and the Lower Mississippi Valley — before moving into the Northeast on Thursday. “There’s really no letup to some of the misery people are feeling across that area,” said Bob Oravec, lead forecaster with the National Weather Service, referring to Texas. More than 100 million people live in areas covered by some type of Five years ago: In what was seen as a criticism of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, Pope Francis said that a person who advocated building walls was “not Christian”; Trump quickly retorted it was “disgraceful” to question a person’s faith. (A Vatican spokesman said the next day that the pope’s comment was not intended as a “personal attack” on Trump.) Dallasbased Heritage Auctions said a rare copy of a comic book featuring the ﬁrst appearance of Spider-Man had been sold to an anonymous collector for $454,100. One year ago: Japanese health authorities conﬁrmed 88 more cases of the coronavirus aboard the quarantined cruise ship Diamond Princess, bringing the number of cases on board to 542; U.S. ofﬁcials said Americans who chose to remain on board could not return home for at least two weeks after coming ashore. Health ofﬁcials in the Chinese city of Wuhan announced that a hospital director who’d mobilized the hospital’s resources to deal with the thousands of sick people arriving daily had died from the virus. President Donald Trump commuted the 14-year prison sentence of former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich for political corruption; Blagojevich left prison hours later and returned home to Chicago. (Trump also issued pardons or clemency to former New York City police commissioner Bernie Kerik, ﬁnancier Michael Milken, and a long list of others.) The Boy Scouts of America ﬁled for bankruptcy protection in the ﬁrst step toward creating a huge compensation fund for men who were molested as youngsters decades ago by scoutmasters or other leaders; the organization urged victims to come forward.

Power outages linger for millions Ten years ago: The United States vetoed a U.N. resolution that would have condemned Israeli settlements as illegal and called for a halt in all settlement building; the 14 other Security Council members voted in favor of the measure. David J. Phillip | AP Joecyah Heath, left, Morning Day, center, and Jenesis Heath rest in recliners at a Gallery Furniture store that opened as a shelter Wednesday in Houston. Millions in Texas still had no power after a historic snowfall and single-digit temperatures created a surge of demand for electricity to warm up homes unaccustomed to such extreme lows, buckling the state’s power grid and causing widespread blackouts. winter weather warning, watch or advisory, the weather service said. More than two dozen people have died in the extreme weather this week, some while struggling to ﬁnd warmth inside their homes. In the Houston area, one family succumbed to carbon monoxide from car exhaust in their garage. Another perished as they used a ﬁreplace to keep warm. Record low temperatures were reported in city after city. Scientists say the polar vortex, a weather pattern that usu- ally keeps to the Arctic, is increasingly spilling into lower latitudes and sticking around longer, and global warming caused by humans is partly responsible. Utilities from Minnesota to Texas and Mississippi have implemented rolling blackouts to ease the burden on power grids straining to meet extreme demand for heat and electricity. In Mexico, rolling blackouts Tuesday covered more than one-third of the country after the storms in Texas cut the supply of imported natural gas. More than 3 million customers remained without power in Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi, more than 200,000 more in four Appalachian states, and nearly that many in the Paciﬁc Northwest, according to poweroutage.us, which tracks utility outage reports. The weather has also threatened the nation’s COVID-19 vaccination effort. President Joe Biden’s administration said delays in vaccine shipments and deliveries were likely. The worst U.S. power outages by far have been in Texas, where ofﬁcials requested 60 generators from the Federal Emergency Management Agency and planned to prioritize hospitals and nursing homes. The state opened 35 shelters to more than 1,000 occupants, the agency said. Texas’ power grid manager, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, said electricity had been restored to 600,000 homes and businesses by Tuesday night, though 3 million homes and businesses remained without power as of midday Wednesday. *** ATTENTION: Plugging of Oil and Gas Wells *** Orphan Well Program Public Notice Ohio Department of Natural Resources Division of Oil and Gas Resources Management February 12, 2021 -This notice will run for five (5) days- Do you have a valid interest in one of the oil and gas wells listed below, or the equipment attached to, or used in, any of these wells?

He’d driven through the remnants of an oil spill when McDowell’s car made a hard right turn into the wall. The car rebounded, ﬂipped o n its roof and went airborne for eight rolls before the ﬂaming wreckage ﬁnally came to a stop on its wheels. “It’s just one of those things that happened,” McDowell said. “But you deﬁnitely hope that people would know you for something better than that.” It took 13 years for him to change the narrative: McDowel l is now a Daytona 500 champion. The journeyman earned the ﬁrst win of his career — he was 0-357 before Daytona — by zipping past two crashing cars on the ﬁnal lap. McDowell led for less than a mile in the wee hours Monday morning but it was all he needed to validate a career spent driving inferior cars. Daytona is unlike any race on NASCAR’s schedule in that underdogs have a chance if they can make it to the ﬁnish. It takes understanding the nuances of superspeedway racing — managing the draft, knowing who to push and how to do it, and using instinct to plot strategy at almost 200 mph. McDowell has had the hang of it since at least 2013, when he scored his ﬁrst career top-10 ﬁnish at Daytona. He has been a ﬁxture near the front of the ﬁeld since, particularly after he moved to Front Row Motorsports in 2018. Although FRM is considered one of NASCAR’s third-tier teams, it has a strong program for superspeedways and road courses, circuits that somewhat level the playing ﬁeld. In four Daytona 500s driving the No. 34 Ford, McDowell ﬁnished ﬁfth, ninth, 14th and, ﬁnally, ﬁrst. “This is deﬁnitely no ﬂuke,” said three-time Daytona 500 winner Denny Hamlin. “I’ve said many times this is a skill game. He’s got the skill set to win these, and he ﬁnally got it done.” The victory was just the third in 17 years for Front Row and owner Bob Jenkins. David Ragan won FRM’s ﬁrst race, in 2013 at Talladega Superspeedway, and Chris Buescher won at Pocono in 2016. Jenkins doesn’t think the sporadic success is indicative of the team he’s built. “I know the average fan is surprised when we See MCDOWELL | 5 OVP SPORTS SCHEDULE Thursday, Feb. 18 Boys Basketball Southern at Eastern, 7:15 Girls Basketball (12) Meigs at (5) Fairﬁeld Union, 7 p.m. (15) GAHS/(18) AHS at (2) Vinton County, 7 p.m. Friday, Feb. 19 Boys Basketball Eastern at Federal Hocking, 7:30 Girls Basketball Gallia Academy at Portsmouth, 6 p.m. (11) River Valley at (6) McClain, 7 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 20 Boys Basketball Federal Hocking at South Gallia, 7:30 Girls Basketball (9) Green at (8) South Gallia, 7 p.m. (19) SHS/(14) ISJ at Trimble, 7 p.m. Charles Fox/The Philadelphia Inquirer via AP, File Maryland’s Jen Giles, center, and Kelly Cross, right, of Syracuse, compete for the ball during the first half of a semifinal in the NCAA Division I women’s lacrosse tournament on May 27, 2016 in Chester, Pa.

Hurlbut says FDU 4.4% decrease in undergraduate enrollment this President Christopher Capuano, a proponent of fall over the year before. AP Sports Writer sports expansion, gave him an odd look when he told him it was time to expand. “He wanted to see the economics behind it,” Hurlbut said. The spreadsheet Capuano got was an eyeopener. It suggested that adding sports at a midmajor Division I school would end up adding hundreds of thousands of dollars to the ledger in time. Hurlbut said many schools have been cutting 20% across the board in all departments to balance the budget. “That was an easy way to make ends meet,” he said. “We didn’t want to do that. We wanted to look at it from a different lens and say: ‘Hey, if we use this formula, we’ll actually be able to be starting to be revenue drivers and help in the enrollment process, which so many schools like ours that are out there need.” Andrew Schwarz, a sports economist with the California-based ﬁrm of OSKR, worked with FDU — enrollment 8,944 at its four campuses — on the expansion. He said the concept is not new for schools driven by enrollment, provided they had space in the classrooms and dormitories for the athletes. Many Division III schools have employed the concept to increase tuition and room and board revenue. Schwarz said it will work on the Division I level, where schools get extra money from the NCAA for every sport they offer over the minimum of 14. In FDU’s case, they explained, men’s volleyball doesn’t need a new venue built because a court already exists. The expenses were basically coach, staff and equipment, much of which will be offset by a $200,000 grant from First Point Volleyball Foundation. There are roughly 20 players on a team. The Knights would be allowed to give 4 1/2 scholarships. The other 15 1/2 players will pay for tuition, See FDU | 5 �SPORTS/CLASSIFIEDS Ohio Valley Publishing McDowell From page 4 win a race, but it never surprises me,” Jenkins said. “It’s taken a long time to get our third win and our ﬁrst Daytona 500 win, but people don’t realize this is our third top-ﬁve in the Daytona 500. You want to win championships, but you’ve got to win races ﬁrst.” McDowell earlier this month said he doubted FRM could make the 16-car playoffs on points, so the priority had been earning an automatic berth via a race win. The schedule this year has a NASCAR-high seven road courses — the ﬁrst is this Sunday at Daytona — and four superspeedways, which theoretically gave FRM a ﬁghting chance to compete against NASCAR’s elite. FRM now has its ﬁrst or you can put yourself up in position to at least get some more points.” McDowell will have a different approach to racing the rest of this season. He certainly wants to win more races, but he’s got his Daytona 500 trophy now and can focus on helping FRM’s growth. “I think that you always have the ﬁre and when you win that ﬁre gets deeper, but we all know that’s not an every week thing for us and our race AP Photo/John Raoux team right now,” McDowell Michael McDowell celebrates after winning the NASCAR Daytona 500 on said. “We know that on 26 of Monday at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Fla. the racetracks, we’ll be happy playoff berth in team history. or winning the race for us,” to be in that top 10.

It ﬁgures to be a particularly challenging week for No. 12 Texas. The Longhorns have games against two teams that appeared in the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee’s top 16 seeds, ﬁrst by visiting No. 9 Oklahoma on Wednesday and then hosting No. 13 West Virginia on Saturday. The week also includes Saturday’s matchup between No. 15 Texas Tech and No. 23 Kansas — which fell out of last week’s poll for the ﬁrst time in 12 years but popped back in Monday. And second-ranked Baylor is scheduled to return to action Saturday against Oklahoma State in the Bears’ ﬁrst game since Feb. 2 after having ﬁve games postponed. Two more As of now, top-ranked Gonzaga (20-0, 11-0 West Coast Conference) has just two games left on its regularseason schedule. The ﬁrst is Thursday at home against St. Mary’s, followed by Saturday’s visit from San Diego. All but one of the Bulldogs’ wins have come by double-digit margins, the outlier being an 87-82 win against West Virginia on Dec. 2.

The Cowboys will have a chance to play their way back in if they can beat Iowa State on Tuesday and Baylor on Saturday. The same is true of Rutgers, which fell out from No. 25 last week but visits Michigan on Thursday. There’s also Belmont (22-1, 16-0 Ohio Valley) chasing the program’s ﬁrst AP Top 25 poll ranking.
