Sen. Brown calls for ‘pro-family’ workplace in New Hampshire HAMPTON, N.H. (AP) — Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown is in New Hampshire for the weekend as he explores a potential 2020 presidential bid while trying to set himself apart with his broad appeal to the working class. The Ohio senator spoke Friday at Winnacunnet High School in Hampton with ﬁve other panelists and an audience of about 50 people. Brown expressed his strong support for paid family medical leave, higher wages, better beneﬁts, better workplace rules and what he called a “pro-family” workplace. “Since my election to the third term in the Senate, I have continually been noticing Democrats seem to think we either chose to talk to the progres- sive base or you talk to working families and listen to issues that matter to them. I don’t think it’s a choice,” he said. “I won in states like Ohio because of who I am and what I ﬁght for every day, which is dignity of work.” The event was organized by an activist group known as Campaign for a Family Friendly Economy. This is Brown’s ﬁrst visit since 2014. He has four other stops in the state Saturday. Brown has said he and his wife, journalist Connie Schultz, are still deciding whether he should run for president. He said he called former President Barack Obama about a month ago to talk about his potential run for the presidency but stopped short of saying how Obama responded.

Pour myself a cup of ambition. And yawn and stretch and try to come to life.” Lyrics from Nine to Five by Dolly Pardon. My cup of ambition is coffee. Brewed brown water with ﬂavored hazelnut creamer — a steaming cup of joe. A lighter roast that is smooth and mellow. Mmm-Mmm Good — just like the Campbell Soup jingle. How do you cook your coffee? Filtered, dripped, percolated. Black coffee served straight from the carafe. With or without cream and sugar. Is gourmet coffee your forte? Cappuccino, espresso, latte. What’s in your cup? According to the International Coffee Organization, 1.6 billion cups of coffee are consumed worldwide daily. www.ncausa.org/. That’s a lot of sipping. Consumers of coffee tend to be Melissa suspicious of people who do not partake. Martin Contributing What’s up with coffee-challenged humans — no taste for the ballyhoo brew. We columnist swallow our coffee beverages at breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner. A brewing pot of coffee is nose candy. And of course, we enjoy our work coffee breaks before and after lunch. We chat and sip at coffee houses, restaurants, and bars. Coffee connects us as we meet and greet for casual conversations. From sunrise to sunset coffee is on the menu. Tasty treats and delectable desserts often accompany coffee. Do you dunk a doughnut? Eat an éclair? Much a mufﬁn? Chew chocolate? Bite biscotti? Savor a slice of strawberry pie? My favorite food with hot coffee is a cinnamon bun. So lip-smacking scrumptious. Coffee Containers Consumer Reports rated and selected the top coffee pot models for 2019: drip, pod, grind-and-brew, self-serve, one-mug, and combination coffee/espresso conﬁgurations. Visit www.consumerreports.org/coffeemakers/best-coffee-makers-of-the-year/. And coffee goes with us in travel mugs, thermoses, and other cup containers. And what kitchen cabinet isn’t full of mugs with funny slogans? Coffee Facts The following coffee facts are going to make you a party pal. Your brunch buddies will be impressed. The old gals at the monthly get-togethers will be astounded by your trivia. Coffee beans are not really beans, but berries from the coffee tree bush. Huh? Yes, it’s true. Coffee “beans” are the seeds of the coffee fruit. Yep fruit. Who knew? The berries pretend to be beans. Coffee beans actually start as cherries. First a bath — then a suntan. The coffee berries bask and bake in the sunshine. Drying the green coffee is one of the most critical elements in producing coffee worth sipping. Brazil is the largest coffee producer in the world followed by Colombia, Vietnam, and Honduras — the top U.S. coffee supplying countries. Kudos to coffee farmers! They deserve appreciation. Got coffee? After water, coffee is the second most popular drink on the planet. Sorry to dairy cows, but the bean is queen. The Drug Caffeine Caffeine is a drug—an addictive drug. Caffeine crosses the blood-brain barrier to stimulate the central nervous system. “Scientists have known for many years that coffee stimulates the release of the neurotransmitter dopamine. Dopamine produces the euphoria and pleasant feelings that people often associate with their ﬁrst cup of coffee in the morning. Many drugs that produce euphoria, such as cocaine, amphetamine and ecstasy, act upon dopamine in the brain. This action by coffee has always been an adequate explanation for why caffeine is the most widely consumed psychoactive substance in the world,” according to an article in Psychology Today. www.psychologytoday.com/. Is caffeine a blessing or a curse? Jolt or jitters? It depends on the amount you consume. According to the Mayo Clinic, the amount of caffeine in four cups of brewed coffee is safe for most healthy adults. www.mayoclinic.org/. But, too much of a good thing is not a good thing. Too much caffeine can increase the stress hormone, cortisol. Prolonged production of cortisol causes agitation, irritability, and anxiety. And the resulting insomnia is an unwelcome visitor at night. However, studies have suggested that caffeine intake may protect against Parkinson’s disease, cardiovascular disease and stroke. www.medicalnewstoday.com/. The largest cup of coffee contained 4,758.28 gallons and was created by Marca País Honduras in November 2018. www.guinnessworldrecords.com/. Coffee Memories High-vacuum freeze-dried coffee was developed after World War II. My Appalachian grandma loved instant coffee. A jar of Sanka and Cremora set by her stove. She served coffee in a cup with a saucer. I can remember the clinking sound each time the cup was returned to the saucer after sipping. I miss coffee and conversation in Mamaw Hila’s cozy country kitchen. Coffee cultures abound in different countries. And coffee connoisseurs travel the globe in search of the Holy Grail of java. Are you in a daze from the coffee craze? Coffee has become a cornerstone of American culture as well. Let’s add it to the list with baseball, hotdogs, and apple pie. Roll out the red carpet and celebrate the popular potion. THEIR VIEW Basic litter assessment…for dogs “Why doesn’t he act the way he did when he was a puppy?” — John Preston Smith Many times, when purchasing a dog, folks do get the horse before the cart. By that, I mean, they do research before buying. But, when they ﬁnd the perfect litter of pups, how do they know which pup to pick? This generally leads to calling for my help in assessing the litter. One of my favorite assessment techniques is age-old yet has stood the test of time better then the more modern forms of evaluation. In every case that I have personally used this test, and then contacted the dog owner one year later, the original test results have proven positive. Here’s the process. Take the litter mates, one at a time, and place them in the doorway of a room they have never visited before. You stand still and remain quiet. Your only requirement is to observe. In general, you are to qualify what you see. Take notes. The pup that backs will still be submisaway from the sive, and his attidoorway will be tude may inﬂuence submissive. the indecisive pup.

Once out of the box how do they relate to you; jumping all over you, nipping for attention, cuddling in your lap, ignoring you, staying just far enough away so you can not reach out and touch. You would judge the actions of these pups in the same manner as when you placed them in a doorway of a room they had never visited. These are my favorite litter evaluation tests and are basic enough so anyone can perform a fundamental litter assessment.

Several of those players, or former Reid assistant coaches, have went on to coaching roles in the league. Bartrum is now among those ranks. A few weeks ago Bartrum interviewed for the position of assistant special teams coach with the Cleveland Browns. Soon after, he received a call from Coach Doug Pederson, head coach of the Eagles, to interview for a position with the team.

Conductor Tim Berens said, “We had a wonderful time exploring the centuries-old relationship between folk and classical music.” “(Songs of Rural America) roots the audience with the elements of the classical world and turns symphony stages literally into a front porch,” said Johnathon before the recording at the Ariel Opera House. “Songs of Rural America was developed to bring these two worlds together…We’re going to travel from the Civil War to Buddy Holly. It’s going to be a musical adventure and I think it’s going to be a lot of fun. Some of the stories the audience is going to hear during the concert, I think, will leave them rather amazed. These are the songs that ended up shaping their culture. It’s really a beautiful experience but it’s the stories that go along with the songs that become special.

The fair has long sought to move locations due to ﬂooding concerns, say fair board members. A Not-So-Newlyweds Game Night will be held at Colony Club, 6 p.m. on Feb. 23 for the relocation beneﬁt. From 6 to 7 p.m., couples will register and from 6:30 to 7 p.m. music will be played by Jacob Gilmore. From 7:15 to 7:45 p.m., the ﬁrst round of the couples challenge will be held and from 7:45 to 8 p.m., more music will be played. Around 8 to 8:30 p.m., the second round of the challenge will be held with music again held at 8:30 p.m. The third challenge will ﬁnish at 8:45 to 9 p.m. and music will continue until the evening ﬁnishes. A silent auction and desserts will be available and couples participating in the challenge must be married, either new or old. Couples names will be entered into a drawing and nine names will be drawn out for the challenge with three couples per round. Couples will take the stage and will predict their ﬁnal score by writing it on a board to be utilized as a tiebreaker. Couples will have a seat on stools while sitting back-to-back and have a dry erase board in hand. Questions will be asked to the ladies ﬁrst and correct answers earn points with eight questions each round, four to each partner. The Fair Relocation Committee is made up of Danella Newberry, Abby VanSickle, Jennifer Bonzo, Amy Johnson, Ronnie and Sheryl Slone, Mary Deel and Finger Thompson.

Feb. 21 is slated for the next meeting. “We sort of came up with the idea because a family had called us because they wanted to make a donation to the relocation,” said Bonzo. “I spoke with her on the phone for maybe 45 minutes and was told about how the fair was their ﬁrst date and how they’d come back to the fair every year after. It’s important to people like that. It’s where their memories were made.” “The fair is the heart (of the community) to a lot of folks in Gallia County,” said Newberry. “Farming is a way of life here.” Newberry emphasized the importance of being able to continue carrying on the farming legacy of the fair by teaching youth about the values of hard work while also keeping them safe from the dangers of ﬂooding. Current plans for the new fair relocation include the construction of a climate control building in hopes of being utilized year round for a variety of community functions, including conventions or weddings. “We’ve still got a long way to go,” said Bonzo. “But we want people to see that we’re out in the community doing something and trying to make money for the move. It’s not just important to us. It’s important for Gallia County.” Dean Wright can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 21o3. Mud volleyball brings out the dirty competitor in everyone.

Trimble countered with a Jeremiah Brown trifecta before Thorla answered with a basket that knotted things at 23-all with 3:07 left until halftime. Brayden Weber followed with consecutive baskets over the ﬁnal 2:56 of the half that gave THS a slim 27-23 edge at the intermission. Trimble owned a 20-16 edge in rebounds at the break, which included a 12-7 advantage on the offensive glass.

Austin Baker produced ﬁve straight points during a 5-1 run at the start of the third, which tied the game up at 28-all at the 6:26 mark. The guests, however, hit seven of their next 11 ﬂoor attempts during an 18-8 surge that extended the THS lead back out to double digits at 46-36 with 48 seconds left. Trey McNickle hit two free throws just before the quarter ended — cutting the deﬁcit down to eight points entering the ﬁnale. Up by a point in the ﬁnal minute, Guffey netted the ﬁrst of two free throws to extend the lead out to 57-55 with 38 seconds left. Jensen Anderson missed a would-be gametying shot on Southern’s ensuing possession, and Weber made 1-of-2 free throws following a rebound with 20.2 seconds left. Thorla came up empty on a pair of shot attempts on the Tornadoes next possession, and Sawyer Koons hauled in the rebound before being fouled.

Afterwards, SHS coach Jeff Caldwell spoke about the heart that his troops showed after falling behind by 11 points roughly six minutes into regulation, but also pointed out some things along the way that just ended up being too much to overcome. “We just didn’t take advantage of the opportunities that were there. We battled back from such a poor start to the game, but you cannot afford to start slow against a quality team like Trimble,” Caldwell said. “We gave up too many offensive rebounds in the ﬁrst half and we didn’t do a good job of ﬁnishing, and somehow we still had a chance to win there at the end. “I’m proud that the kids continued to battle, but things could have been different … and that’s the frustrating part of this. We just have to turn the page to next week and try to get back on track.” The Tomcats showed their prowess on the board early and often after recording seven of their dozen offensive rebounds in the ﬁrst quarter alone.

The River Valley boys basketball team made a late charge, but a 34-18 run in the middle frames ultimately allowed host Nelsonville-York enough breathing room to hold on for a 61-56 decision on Friday night in a TriValley Conference Ohio Division contest in Athens County. The visiting Raiders (3-17, 0-10 TVC Ohio) were ﬁring on all cylinders early on after building a 12-2 advantage less than three minutes into regulation, but the Buckeyes (9-10, 4-5) countered with a 17-7 surge and ultimately knotted things up at 19-all through eight minutes of play. The Silver and Black never led again, but found themselves deadlocked at 28-all late into the second frame. The hosts answered with a nine consecutive points as part of a 10-1 surge to close out the canto, allowing NYHS to secure a 39-29 advantage at the break.

The Raiders opened the ﬁnale with a small 7-4 spurt to close back to within 13 points, then went on a 10-0 run that trimmed the deﬁcit down to 57-54 following a Jordan Lambert putback with 57 seconds remaining. A pair of NYHS free throws offset a Layne Fitch basket over the next 22 seconds, still making it a one-possession contest at 59-56 with 35.4 seconds left. The Raiders came up short on a trifecta attempt during their ensuing possession, but then hauled in an offensive rebound and had the ball inside for a decent look.

The Buckeyes missed both charity tosses on the technical foul, but retained possession. The hosts successfully inbounded the ball to Ethan Bohyer, who was immediately fouled before sinking both charity tosses with 11.4 seconds left in regulation. Neither team scored the rest of the way, allowing Nelsonville-York to hold on for the ﬁve-point triumph. NYHS also claimed a season sweep of River Valley after posting a 58-43 decision in Bidwell back on Jan. 4. The Raiders outrebounded the hosts by a 39-29 overall margin and also committed 16 of the 29 turnovers in the contest. River Valley netted 22-of-59 ﬁeld goal attempts for 37 percent, including a 6-of-24 effort from behind the arc for 25 percent. The guests were also 6-of-13 at the free throw line for 46 percent.

The Eastern girls basketball team won its third game in a row on Thursday in Meigs County, defeating Tri-Valley Conference host Southern by a 58-16 tally in the regular season ﬁnale for both teams. Eastern (13-8, 13-3 TVC Hocking) scored the game’s opening bucket, but Southern (0-22, 0-16) hit back-to-back three-pointers and led 6-2 with 5:45 left in the ﬁrst quarter. The Lady Eagles closed the ﬁrst on a 6-0 run and led 8-2, but the hosts hit another trifecta to open the second period and led 9-8. Eastern, however, ended the half with a 20-0 run and took a 28-9 advantage into the break. The guests continued their run, scoring the ﬁrst 10 points of the second half to make the margin 38-9 by the midway point of the third quarter. Southern ended it’s 12-minute cold spell with a two-pointer at 3:00 mark of the period, but EHS scored four of the next ﬁve points and led 42-12 at the end of the stanza. The Lady Eagles closed the game with a 16-to-4 run, sealing the 58-16 win. Following the triumph, Eastern head coach Jacob Parker talked about his in-game adjustments, and the momen- Alex Hawley|OVP Sports Eastern’s Jaymie Basham (42) brings the ball across midcourt in front of Southern’s Brooke Crisp (24), during the Lady Eagles’ 58-16 victory on Thursday in Racine, Ohio. tum the Lady Eagles have as they prep for the postseason. “In the ﬁrst half we came out ﬂat,” Parker said. “We had to make some adjustments in the second half, we made them, and we played much more of our style of basketball. When we play the way we practice, good things happen. “That’s three straight for us going into tournaments. We have a little bit of a layoff, playing next Saturday, so we’ll get in the gym, get a lot of shots up and have some nice practices. It’s a whole new season, that’s what I was always told as a player, that’s what Coach (John) Burdette told me. The regular season is in the past, we’re 0-0, everybody’s 0-0, we have to come out and play great basketball.” Conversely, SHS head coach Alan Crisp noted that all the momentum his club gained in the 58-50 setback to Belpre on Wednesday was now lost. “This could have been a game where we had momentum going into tournament,” Crisp said. “What we made late night, it was two steps forward and three steps back tonight. You have to come out and bring it every night. We played four good quarters last night, and played no good quarters tonight. We didn’t shoot the ball, we missed some easy bunnies, we gave up layups, I can’t say we had any positives, I don’t believe we had a positive in this game.” Eastern connected on 21-of-53 (39.6 percent) ﬁeld goal attempts, including 3-of-15 (20 percent) three-point tries, LARGE AUCTION FEBRUARY 16,2019 @ 10:00 A.M.

On Monday in the Gallia Academy High School library, senior Hunter Copley signed her National Letter of Intent to continue her pitching career with the Transylvania University softball team, referred to as the Pioneers, but represented by a bat mascot. Copley — who will begin her senior campaign with the Blue Angels this March — talked about the opportunity she’s been given to play softball at the next level, and follow in the footsteps of her sister Chelsea, a 2015 River Valley graduate playing her senior softball season at the College of Wooster. “This has been one of my goals for a very long time, after seeing my sister go to college to play softball,” Hunter said. “It means a lot to be attending such a good university with a good physical therapy program. It means a lot to have this opportunity.” Copley has 37 pitching victories and 260 career strikeouts in her three seasons with the Blue Angels, going 13-4 as a junior. She’s also helped her own cause plenty of times, recording 98 hits so far. As a freshman, Copley was named to the ﬁrst team on both the Ohio Valley Conference and Southeastern Ohio Athletic League all-league teams, while ﬁnishing as an all-district second team selection. As a sophomore, Copley helped the Blue Angels capture a sectional title, and was named to the All-OVC ﬁrst team and all- Alex Hawley|OVP Sports On Monday at GAHS, senior Hunter Copley signed her National Letter of Intent to join the Transylvania University softball team.

In her junior year, the Blue and White repeated as sectional champions and claimed a share of OVC title for the ﬁrst time in school history. Copley was named to the All-OVC team for a third straight season and was an alldistrict second teamer. GAHS head coach Scott Stanley is looking forward to having his ace for another season, and believes her hard work will carry her at the next level. “Hunter’s been pitching for us since her freshman year,” said Stanley. “She’s been a dominant pitcher for us for the last three years, and we look forward to that in her senior year. I’m sure with all her hard work, she’ll excel at the next level and work hard to get better.” Transylvania University is a Division III school located in Lexington, Kentucky, and the Pioneers compete in the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference. Along with her academic goals, Copley will look to compete for a pitching spot on the Pioneers, who were 34-9 last season. “Deﬁnitely getting degree in physical therapy is my main goal,” Copley said. “Also, since they’re such a good program — they nearly made it to the World Series the past two years, and they won the conference the last three years — my goal is to work hard and get a pitching spot in their rotation.” Softball is one of four sports Hunter has excelled in at GAHS. She’s a twotime all-district selection on the Gallia Academy volleyball team, which has won four straight sectional titles and ﬁve league championships in four seasons. Also a four-year member of the basketball team, Hunter was an alldistrict performer, with a career-high of 34 points in a victory over Point Pleasant earlier this winter. A two-year member of the GAHS golf team, Copley helped make school history this past fall, as an all-district ﬁrst teamer on the Blue Angels’ ﬁrst-ever state qualifying team. Hunter — who holds a 3.91 grade-point-average, good enough for 14th in the GAHS Class of 2019 — is the daughter of John and Michelle Copley of Bidwell, Ohio.

The Hannan girls basketball team had eight players reach the scoring column while sending upperclassmen Pammie Ochs and Josie McCoy out in style on Thursday night with a 57-19 victory over visiting Teays Valley Christian in a nonconference matchup in Mason County. The Lady Wildcats (7-9) celebrated Senior Night in a decisive fashion as the hosts limited the Lady Lions to single digits in all four quarters while gradually pulling away for the 38-point triumph. The win also allowed the Lady Cats to claim a season sweep after posting a 55-19 decision at TVCS back on Jan. 8. Hannan built a small 10-6 edge through eight minutes of play, but the hosts received ﬁve points from Julie Frazier as part of a 12-2 second quarter surge that turned a small two-possession cushion into a commanding 22-8 advantage at the break. Bailey Coleman and Madison Plantz both contributed four points apiece during a 15-8 third period push, which ultimately resulted in a 37-16 edge headed into the ﬁnale. Halie Johnson scored ﬁve points, while the trio of Plantz, McCoy and Rachel Ellis each chipped in four points as part of a 20-3 charge down the NHL National Hockey League EASTERN CONFERENCE Atlantic Division GP W L OT Pts GF GA Tampa Bay 54 39 11 4 82 207 150 Toronto 53 33 17 3 69 190 150 Montreal 55 31 18 6 68 169 158 Boston 54 29 17 8 66 155 140 Buffalo 53 26 20 7 59 158 166 Florida 52 22 22 8 52 161 180 Detroit 54 21 26 7 49 153 178 Ottawa 54 20 29 5 45 167 199 Metropolitan Division GP W L OT Pts GF GA N.Y.
