Many people suffer from various rashes to their hands. We use our hands in countless ways throughout the day, so itchy, painful and sometimes blistering or cracked skin on our hands can have a huge impact on our daily activities. Fortunately, there are solutions.
Ohio Northern junior Nolan Huey (Fort Collins, Colo./Fossil Ridge) has been tabbed the Ohio Athletic Conference Swimmer of the Week for the fourth time in his career.
The Fort Collins, Colorado native recorded four event titles and guided the Polar Bears to a 155-144 victory over conference foe Mount Union inside Hammond Natatorium on Saturday afternoon. The junior swimmer took home three individual event crowns in the 100 back (54.32), 200 back (1:58.32), and 200 individual medley (1:58.53) events and teamed up with seniors Anthony Ferrell and Justin Chapman and sophomore Zach Ayres to capture the 200 medley relay in 1:38.18.
Ada's future weather forecaster points to "snow" on the ONU Preschool bulletin board earlier this week. The Icon stopped in the preschool just as the morning routine was underway. One important piece of the routine is for a student to point the the day's weather conditions.
This note from the ONU Facebook:
"Even though Carol Channing wasn't an ONU alumna, she will always be a Polar Bear in our hearts.
"Ms. Channing performed the first concert at ONU's Freed Center for the Performing Arts on April 27, 1991, and absolutely knocked it out of the park.
Apart from her obvious talent, she was an incredibly kind and thoughtful person, even sending us personal Christmas cards after her one visit to Ada. Thank you, Ms. Channing!"
Ms. Channing died at 12:31 a.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2019, at home in Rancho Mirage, California, of natural causes.
