I HAD THE CHANCE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE RECRUITS. (-------------TKE PKG--------------) “Nat sound pop of players.” THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IN FIVE RECRUITING CLASSES THAT THE MOUNTAINEERS WERE ABLE TO BE SELECTIVE TOWARDS THE END OF THE RECRUITING PROCESS. “Really excited about the guys that, that we got, okay. We got 22 new guys onboard right now that we’ve worked hard on, on getting to that number. Uh, thrilled that they’re a part of, uh, Mountaineer family.” AND THAT MOUNTAINEER FAMILY INCLUDES SIGNING TWENTY-TWO NEW PLAYERS PLACING THE GOLD AND BLUE ABOVE THEIR EIGHTY-FIVE N-C-DOUBLE-A SCHOLARSHIP LIMIT, WITH MORE THAN TWO

SCHOLARSHIP QUARTERBACKS. “And everyone knows we’re producing quarterbacks and wide receivers in this conference along with defensive backs.” AND THESE RECRUITS CONSIST OF 17 HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETES, THREE JUNIOR COLLEGE ATHLETES, AND TWO TRANSFERS, ALL-HAILING FROM EIGHT DIFFERENT STATES. “All-American wide receiver Kevin White’s brother, Ka’Raun White, was one of the many legacies to commit to the Mountaineers on National Signing Day.” FIVE SIGNEES HAVE ALREADY ENROLLED IN CLASSES FOR THE TWO-THOUSAND-FIFTEEN SPRING SEMESTER. THE REST WILL ENROLL IN THE FALL. (--------------DEVON---------------) THE QUARTERBACK POSITION IS STILL UP FOR GRABS FOR THE TWO-THOUSAND-AND-FIFTEEN SEASON.

(-------------KATELYN-------------) THANKS NATALIE AND JON… MORGANTOWN’S NEW RECYCLING PROGRAM IS NOT GOING AS SMOOTHLY AS THE COUNTY COMMISSION WOULD LIKE. I HAD A CHANCE TO SPEAK WITH SOME MORGANTOWN RESIDENTS ABOUT WHAT THEY THINK THE PROBLEMS ARE. (-------------TAKE PKG------------) “Video of trash being dumped” MONONGALIA COUNTY’S RECYCLING PLAN WAS CUT IN EARLY JANUARY. PRESIDENT OF THE COUNTY COMMISSION, TOM BLOOM, HAS PLAYED A MAJOR ROLE IN CREATING A NEW RECYCLING PROGRAM. PROBLEM IS, THE BINS ARE OVERFLOWING AND THE CITY DOESN’T KNOW IF THEY CAN KEEP UP WITH THE RECYCLING. “I really believe the people want it, and I’m asking for people to help us. If they see something on the ground, to pick it up, or if they see someone dumping something to ask them not to do this, cause it affects everybody.

RECYCLING-2 AMATO 2/11/15 S: EMORY DELANEY/ MORGANTOWN RESIDENT S: KATELYN AMATO/ @KAmatoWVUNews

OVERFLOWING BINS LOCAL RESIDENTS HAVE TAKEN NOTICE OF THESE. MORGANTOWN RESIDENT EMORY DELANEY LIKES THE RECYCLING PROGRAM AND THINKS THE COUNTY SHOULD DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO KEEP IT. “I think they need to have more and bigger. Because there’s a lot of people that really like to do this for the environment and it makes it good for America, and they just need to have bigger bins and more bins.” “So, is it worth it to have more bins to recycle? You bet! This plastic bag will take 15 years to decompose in a landfill and this plastic jug will take 20.” AND NOW TOM BLOOM IS WORRIED THAT IF THE CITY CAN’T GET IT TOGETHER, THEY MAY LOSE THE SITE WHERE RECYCLING IS TAKING PLACE. “We want to have this program, the last thing I want to do is lose the Wal-Mart site. If we lose the Wal-Mart site, recycling will stop in the county. I can tell you that right now.” ALL 12 RECYCLING BINS HAVE BEEN MOVED TO THE WAL-MART LOCATION UNTIL

GLUTEN FREE PRICE 2/11/15 CAMERA 2/TWO-SHOT EFFECTS: TAKE PKG CG:S: NAT SOUND HOLD LENGTH: 1:45 U: MORGANTOWN S: WHITNEY GODWIN/ GLUTEN SENSITIVE

(---------------NATALIE------------) AROUND THIRTY-PERCENT OF ADULTS ARE CUTTING GLUTEN FROM THEIR DIET. HOWEVER ONLY ONE-PERCENT ACTUALLY HAVE CELIAC DISEASE. (-----------------JON-----------------) THE GENETIC DISEASE ONLY AFFECTS ONE IN EVERY ONE-HUNDRED-AND-THIRTY-THREE AMERICANS. (------------NATALIE--------------) IF YOU DO NOT HAVE CELIAC DISEASE A GLUTEN FREE DIET MAY BE DOING MORE HARM THAN GOOD. I FOUND OUT WHY. (---------------TKE PKG------------) “Video of food in blender” IT SEEMS LIKE THERE’S ALWAYS A NEW DIET CRAZE SWEEPING THE NATION. RIGHT NOW, THE GLUTEN FREE DIET IS MAKING ITS ROUNDS, BUT FOR SOME PEOPLE, THIS DIET IS NOT JUST A TREND. WHEN WHITNEY GODWIN WENT TO THE DOCTOR FOR A CHANGE IN HER APPETITE, TESTS REVEALED SHE HAS GLUTEN SENSITIVITY. “I miss just being able to eat when I’m hungry without having to really think about where I’m gonna

GLUTEN FREE-2 PRICE 2/11/15 S: HOLD S: CAMI MCMILLEN/ DIETICIAN S: NATALIE PRICE/ @NPriceWVUNews

go, what I’m gonna do, if I’m gonna get cross-contaminated.” FOR PEOPLE WITH GLUTEN SENSITIVITY OR CELIAC DISEASE, GLUTEN CAUSES MAJOR PROBLEMS FROM FOOD POISONING-LIKE SYMPTOMS TO ORGAN DAMAGE, SO WHEN DIET CRAZES STRIKE, IT CAN BE FRUSTRATING. “All the greens are gone at the store when everyone decides they’re going to diet, and that’s like all I can eat. And second of all, I get really upset when people are like ‘oh I’m just doing it to lose weight’. Well, some of us have to live without Oreos for the rest of our life.” BECAUSE OF HOW GLUTEN FREE PRODUCTS ARE MADE, DIETICIAN CAMI MCMILLEN SAYS IF WEIGHT LOSS IS THE GOAL, DITCHING GLUTEN ISN’T THE BEST OPTION. “You’re taking out the wheat, again, it’s a structural protein, so they need to give something as a filler there.” “These cookies are gluten free, these are not. The regular cookies have one hundred and six calories and nine point three grams of sugar. The gluten-free cookies

GLUTEN FREE-3 PRICE 2/11/15 PKG TRT: 2:05

have one hundred and twenty calories and thirteen grams of sugar. That’s why some people actually gain weight when they switch to a gluten free diet. “Fad diets are a fad for a reason, they don’t work.” MCMILLEN SAYS WHEN IT COMES TO WEIGHT LOSS, IT COMES DOWN TO PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND A HEALTHY, BALANCED DIET. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

(-------------JENNIFER-------------) DID YOU HAVE A SPECIAL SOMEONE THIS VALENTINES DAY? WELL IF YOU DIDN’T I FOUND OUT HOW YOU CAN FIND YOUR TRUE LOVE WITH JUST A TAP OF A BUTTON. (--------------TKE PKG-------------) “Nat sound of students walking.” THE INTERNET AND MOBILE DEVICES ARE SUCH A BIG PART OF OUR SOCIETY THAT PEOPLE ARE MEETING THEIR SIGNIFICANT OTHERS THROUGH DIFFERENT DATING SITES. I FOUND OUT WHAT TIPS CAN WORK FOR THOSE WHO ARE ONLINE DATING. “Make sure your bio is pretty good, cause that’s usually what got me hooked. Make sure your Facebook pictures are up to date because the selection I had was from high school and it probably made me look younger than I already was. MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ARE SURFING THE WEB OR USING THEIR CELL PHONES ON A DAILY BASIS. “Finding true love can be hard especially when it comes to having a busy lifestyle. Typically, the average American will go to the bar to meet that special someone. But now, 66% of Americans are

DATING APPS-2 CLARKE 2/11/15 S: SARA WELLS/WVU STUDENT S: HOLD

going on dates with someone they met through a dating app. STUDIES SHOW THAT ONE IN TEN AMERICANS HAVE USED A DATING SITE OR MOBILE DATING APP. TINDER IS KNOWN TO HAVE THE MOST FISH IN THE SEA, BUT SOME DON’T QUITE THINK IT IS FOR FINDING LOVE. “I think it’s more of a hook-up app as we have the hook up culture now. I wouldn’t say it’s a great way to find relationships but it’s fun, you get to meet new people on campus.” SOME MIGHT BE HESITANT ABOUT ONLINE DATING, BUT ACCORDING TO PEW RESEARCH CENTER, BETWEEN THE AGES OF TWENTY-FIVE AND THIRTY-FOUR ARE TWENTY-TWO PERCENT LIKELY TO FIND A PARTNER. “If my life gets sad enough I might go to E-harmony or Match.com. That’s what I plan for when I’m twenty-eight and still don’t have anything. ALL HAVING MORE THAN FIFTEEN MILLION MEMBERS, MATCH.COM, E-HARMONY, AND OK CUPID MAKE IT EASIER TO FIND THAT SPECIAL SOMEONE.

(---------------STEVE--------------) THE MOUNTAINEERS ARE NOT ONLY PLAYING AGGRESSIVE DEFENSE IN FRONT OF THEIR BASKET BUT ON THE ENTIRE COURT. I HAD A CHANCE TO TALK TO SOME OF THE LEADERS OF THE TEAM TO SEE WHAT THEY THINK ABOUT THEIR NEW DEFENSE. (--------------TKE PKG-------------) “Nat sound of crowd” AFTER A DISAPPOINTING SEASON LAST YEAR THE W-V-U MEN’S BASKETBALL TEAM IS BACK WITH A WHOLE NEW STYLE. AFTER LOSING PLAYERS TO TRANSFERS AND GRADUATION, THIS TEAM HAS REBOUNDED STRONGLY AND IS ONE OF THE BEST IN THE NATION. SENIOR GUARD AND CAPTAIN GARY BROWN SAYS THAT THE NEW DEFENSE REALLY CHANGED THE PACE OF THE GAME. “We started to press this year, which I think was real good. That’s the kind of pace that I like playing at. We speed up the other team up and we get easy baskets. Before last year we never got any easy baskets.”

THE FULL COURT PRESS ALLOWS W-V-U TO CAUSE PLENTY OF TURNOVERS AND RUN OFF THE FAST BREAK. BESIDES BEING EFFECTIVE ON THE COURT, IT’S CAUGHT THE FANS ATTENTION AS WELL. “It’s fantastic. Huggins is a great coach and a West Virginia guy and of course that pressure. You have got to love that pressure. We are getting after people.” “The mountaineers are one of the best teams in the nation at causing turnovers. That is the reason why the have so many easy transition layups.” THIS MOUNTAINEER TEAM HAS A DEEP BENCH AND CAN UTILIZE UP TO 8 PLAYERS A GAME. STARTING GUARD AND JOHN WOODEN AWARD FINALIST JUWAN STATEN APPRECIATES THE NEXT MAN UP MENTALITY. “You know everyone on our team has a lot to bring to the table. Everybody has a role yet at any given time anyone can step up and give us a game.” IF THE MOUNTAINEERS KEEP UP THEIR WINNING WAYS THEY SHOULD BE IN GOOD SHAPE WHEN MARCH MADNESS ARRIVES.
