Songwriters Series supports the Humane Society of the Ohio Valley
MARIETTA, OH. (WTAP) – A Songwriters Series Fundraiser for the Humane Society of the Ohio Valley is coming to the Lafayette Hotel on Friday, May 17th.
Described as a casual get-together for music lovers, Moon Mullen hopes to entertain while helping out his area shelter.
Moon Mullen will be the host and a performer during the night. Joining him will be father-son musicians, Joe Wharff and Jack Wharff.
Mullen said, “the Songwriter-in-the-Round is my favorite way of highlighting the craft of songwriting.” He explained that each artist will share a song and the story behind it.
“All three of us have written songs about Marietta,” according to Mullen, “it will be a real back-home moment!”
The event will be in the Gun Room at The Lafayette Hotel at 8 p.m.
There is a suggested donation of $10, or a large bag of Purina dog chow or cat chow.
Moon explained that representatives with the HSOV said they have about 85 dogs, which is a lot for them.
Buddy, who is available for adoptions, stopped by to do the interview with Mullen.
Buddy is about 2-2.5 years old. He’s listed as a Boxer/Shepherd mix. He has a great personality. He knows several tricks and is very treat motivated. He loves to cuddle and is great with everyone, including children.
If you’d like to adopt Buddy, head over to hsov.org and fill out an application. Or, you can stop by the shelter and meet him in person.

Snow hits downtown Columbus
Snow falls outside the Ohio Theatre as downtown Columbus turns into a winter wonderland.
Now comes the cold.
After nearly 5½ inches of snow fell Dec. 13 in some parts of central Ohio, the National Weather Service says bitterly cold temperatures moving into the region will mean highs in just the single digits.
A cold weather advisory is in affect across central Ohio through 11 a.m. Dec. 15. It was 4 degrees at John Glenn Columbus International Airport at 8:30 a.m. Dec. 14, with a wind chill of 16 degrees below zero.
Temperatures to the west and south are even colder: 1 degree in Springfield, minus-1 in Dayton and minus-3 in Indianapolis. Those temperatures are not expected in the Columbus area, though. The forecast calls for slightly warmer temperatures by evening and highs in the low 20s Dec. 15.
The record cold expected for Dec. 14 — until now, the coldest high temperature in Columbus for this date was 16 degrees in 1917 — follows a day of record snow. The weather service recorded 5.4 inches of snowfall on Dec. 13 at John Glenn Columbus International Airport, topping the prior Dec. 13 record, which was 3.6 inches in 1945.
Level 2 snow emergencies, which means roads are hazardous and people should drive only if they think it’s necessary, remained in effect in Fairfield and Licking counties.
Level 1 snow emergencies are in effect in Delaware, Franklin, Madison, Union and Pickaway counties.

CLEVELAND, Ohio — Ohio State’s game-winning play over West Virginia in the second overtime period Saturday night was simple: give the ball to Bruce Thornton and get out of his way.
The result was an 89-88 double overtime win in the Cleveland Hoops Showdown at Rocket Arena.
It took so much to get to this moment.
The Buckeyes did all they could in regulation to overcome a 14-point deficit, while awaiting their top player in Thornton to come through.
His teammates did the dirty work to keep them in the game. From their defense creating transition points, matching the Mountaineers’ physical brand of ball.
Once extra time came after the first 40 minutes expired, Thornton took care of the rest in the two overtime periods.
He delivered bucket after another.
None more important than the final one.
A tightly covered Thornton took it down to the top of the key before finding a mismatch and looking to take it to the hole. A defender cut off his path, however, forcing Thornton to operate elsewhere in the paint.
Thornton used his pivot foot wisely before finding an opening for a fadeaway jumper and knocking it down.
Twelve of his 21 points came in the overtime periods.
Ohio State fought to the end and earned a win over a hard-nosed Big 12 opponent.
Center Christoph Tilly did his best to limit the Mountaineers’ big men, while adding 14 points and 11 boards of his own.
Freshman big man Amare Bynum was a pivotal spark off the bench with 17 points, eight rebounds and three blocks.
Point guard John Mobley Jr. finished with 17 points and delivered the 3-point shot in the final seconds of the second half to give them their first lead since the 9:00 mark of the first half.
