RUTLAND - :vfost people don't
like being overlooked and for some
residents of Rutland Village, it initially appeared the U.S. Census
Bureau had overlooked them by not
mailing them a census form, though
this wasn't the case and the situation is being remedied.
Chris Shank, director of Meigs
County Department of Job and
Famjly Services, said his office has
rece1ved calls from residents in
Rutland who claimed they never
received a census form. Shank said
it appears these residents were

mailed a census form but these
forms were mailed to their actual
street address, not a post office box.
Since Rutland has no walking mail
routes. like many other small villages, the forms were returned to
sender as undeliverable. •
Shank said after talking with representatives from the U.S. Census
Bureau, there is a plan in place for
this type of situation. Shank said he
was told these Rutland residents, or
any other resident in a small village
who hasn't received their forms,
will eventually receive one, though
it will be hand-delivered by a U.S.
·Census worker.
."Those who haven't received a

form need to be patient ... they will
eventually get it sometime this summer," Shank said.
·
Shank went on to explain the census forms which were mailed out
have a bar code on them which
determines participation rates and
identification which allows census
workers to know which homes have
not participated and therefore which
ones to visit.
"Meigs County is leading all of
Southeast Ohio (in terms of participation rates) ....we're very happy
with that," Shank said. "Hopefully
it will pay off in the long run with
fund distribution based on the data
the residents provide."

With so much riding on the participation of residents, Shank said it
was important to address the problem of those who've said they have
not received their forms.
As for those who have not yet
mailed back their forms, it's not
too late to do so though it may not
prevent a census worker from
showing up on your doorstep. This
is easily remedied by explaining
you already mailed it in. Also. the
bureau prints off updated lists of
those who have participated to
inform census workers of where to
go and where not to go so if you
have participated, it will eventually show up on a list.

more, fiercer
rainstorms
Bv BOB SALSBERG
ASSOCIATED PRESS

BOSTON
The
Northeast is seeing more
frequent "extreme precipitation events" in line with
global warming predictions,
a study shows, including
storms like the recent fierce
rains whose floodwaters
swallowed neighborhoods
and businesses across New
England.
The study does not link
last week's devastating
floods to its research but
examined 60 years· worth of
National Weather Service
rainfall records in nine
Northeastern states and
found that storms that produce an inch or more of rain
in a day - a threshold the
recent storm far surpassed
- are coming more frequently.
"It's almost like 1 inch of
rainfall has become pretty
common these days," said
Bi11 Burtis. spokesman for
Clean Air-Cool Planet. a
global warming education
group that released the
study Monday along with
the University of Nev.
Carbon
· Hampshire's
Solutions New England
group.
The study's results are
consistent with what could
be expected in a world
warmed by greenhouse
gases, said UNH associate
professor Cameron Wake.
He ncknowledged it would
take more sophisticated
studies to cement a warming link, though.
"I can't point to these
recent storms and say. that
is global warming," he said.
What is more certain.
researchers said, is the
potential economic impact
should the 60-year trend
continue and require billions of dollars in infrastructure improvements to
things in the region including roads 1 bridges, sewers
and culverts.
· The study examined precipitation data from 219
Weather Service reporting
stations in Connecticut,
Main~. Massachusetts. New
Hampshire. New Jersey,
New York, Pennsylvania.
Rhode Island and Vermont
from I 948 to 2007.
The report found that in
all but 18 of the stations,
''extreme
precipitation
events," defined as storms
that produced at least I inch
of rain over a 24-hour period or the water equivalent
of snow, are occurring at a
more frequent rate.
Average annual precipitation in the region also
increased, albeit slightly, by
nearly three-quarters of an
inch per decade over the 60, year period. That period
included a marked drop-off
in rainfaJI during the 1960s,
when much of New
England
experienced
drought. and again during a
• regional drought in 2001.
When it came to the really big storms - ones that
produce 2 inches or even 4
inches in a 24-hour period
- the study found those
also occurring with more
regularity than in the past.
As the world warms.
Wake said, there is more
energy to evaporate water,
creating more water vapor
in the air. That in tum can
increase the number of
storms and the amount of
precipitation those storms
produce. he said.
·
The ferocious March
storms - Providence, R.I.,
and other cities set a monthly record for precipitation.
while Boston experienced its
second-rainiest month since
record keeping began seem out of whack even with
the findings in the report.
"[t's consistent, but it's
way more than even the
trends we've seen." he said.
"It's anomalous for sure."
Global warming skeptic
Patrick Michaels, a senior
fellow in environmental
studies at the Cato Institute,
said it would be unfair to use
the recent floods as an example of what's in the study.
"You can't take an individual event and say it's a
product of a certain trend."
Michaels said.

Lawmakers: Afghan leader threatens to join Taliban
BY AMIR SHAH AND
CHRISTOPHER 80DEEN
ASSOCIATED PRESS

KABUL
Afghan
President Hamid Karzai
threatened over the weekend to quit the political
process and join the Taliban
if he continued to come
under outside pressure to
reform. several members of
parliament said Monday.
Karzai made the unusual
statement at a closed-door
meeting Saturday with
selected lawmakers - just
days after kicking up a
diplomatic controversy with
remarks alleging foreigners
were behind fraud · in last
year's disputed elections.
Lawmakers dismissed the
latest comment as hyperbole, but it will add to the
impression the president who relies on tens of thousands of U.S. and NATO
forces to fight the insurgency _and prop up his government is growmg
increasingly erratic and
unable to exert authority
without attacking his foreign backers.
"He said that 'if I come
under foreign pressure, I
might join the Taliban',"
said Farooq Marenai, who
the
eastern
represents
province of Nangarhar.
"He said rebelling would
change
to resi&lt;.;tance,"
Marenai said - apparently
suggesting that the militant
movement would then be
redefined as one of resistance agaimt a foreign
occupation rather than a
rebellion against an elected
government.
Marenai said
Karzai
appeared
nervous
and
repeatedly demanded to
know why parliament last
week had rejected legal
reforms that would have
strengthened the president's
authority over the country's

electoral institutions.
Two other lawmakers said
Karzai twice raised the
threat to join the insurgency.
The lawmakers. who
spoke on condition of
anonymity for fear of political repercussions, said
Karzai also dismissed concerns over possible damage
his comments had caused to
relations with the United
States. He told them he had
already explained himself
in a telephone conversation
Saturday with Secretary of
State Hillary
Rodham
Clinton that came after the
White House described his
comments last week as
troubling.
White House spokesman
Robert Gibbs said reports
Karzai threatened to abandon the political process
and join the Taliban insurgency if he cootinued to
receive
pressure
from
Western backers to refom1
his government are troubling.
"On
behalf of the
American people, we're
frustrated
with
the
remarks:·
Gibbs
told
•
. reporters.
The ,lawmakers said they
felt Karzai was pandering to
hard-line or pro-Taliban
members of parliament and
had no real intention of
joining the insurgency.
Nor does the Afghan
leader appear concerned
that the U.S. might abandon
him. having said numerous
times that the U.S. would
not
leave Afghanistan
because it perceives a presence here to be in its national interest.
Karzai
spokesman
Waheed Omar's phone was
turned off and another number for him rang unansw~:red Monday. D~puty
spokesman Hamed Elmi's
phone rang unanswered.
The comments come

against the background of.
continuing insurgent v ioJence as the U.S. moves to
boost troop levels in a push
against Taliban strongholds
in the south.
NA..TO forces said they
killed I 0 militants in a joint
U.S.-Afghan raid on a compound
in
Nangarhar
province's Khogyani district near the Pakistani border early Monday, while
gunmen seriously wounded
an Afghan provincial councilwoman in a drive-by
shooting in the country's
mcreasingl y violent north.
NATO also confirmed
that international troops
were respons1ble for the
deaths of five civilians.
includine: three women, on
Feb. 12 in Gardez, south of
Kabul.
A NATO statement said a
joint international-Afghan
patrol fired on two \nen
mistakenly believed to be
insurgents. It said the three
women were "accidentally
killed as a result of the joint
force firing at the men."
International force officials will discuss the results
of the investigation with
family of tho!;e killed. apologize and provide compensation, he said.
The two men killed in the
Gardez raid had been longserving government loyalists and opponents of aiQaida and the Taliban. one
serving as provincial district
attorney and the other as
police chief in Paktia's
Zurmat district.
Their brother, who also

lost his wife and a sister,
said he leamed of the investigation result from the
Internet. but had yet to
receive formal notice.
.
Mohammad Sabar said
the family's only demand
was that the informant who
passed on the faulty information about militant activity be tried and publicly
executed.
"Please, please. please.
our desire, our demand is
that this spy be executed in
front of the people to ensure
that such bad things don't
happen again." Sabar said.
In the latest of a series of

GALLIPOLIS
The TriCounty March for Babies
Walk is almost here.
And to rally teams to raise
more money for the cause,
which benefits the March of
Dimes research projects, there
will be a team captain rally on
Thursday at the Holiday Inn
in Gallipolis, Ohio.
The event will take place
from 7:30-9:30 a.m. and
breakfast will be provided.
According to Terry Eller,

community director of the tricounty March of Dimes, the
rally is an opportunity for
team captains to gather more
supplies a::&gt; well get bank day
information. Those wishing
to attend the event should
RSVP by calling Eller at 304720-2229 before Wednesday.
According to Eller, the
March for Babies Walk is
the March of Dimes' signature fundraising event. She
said that she hopes Mason,
Gallia and Meigs county can
pull together to raise plenty
of money for the cause.

"Our goal is $35,000 and
I believe we can do that
with no problem." she said
during February's March
for Babies kick off.
Eller also· described the
March of Dimes as being
important because of all the
things that the organization
does to help babies. including those with premature
births. For example, those
who have recei"ved a polio
vaccine as well as babies
who have received lung surfactant therapy to treat respiratory distress syndrome

have been helped by the
organization. Those who are
aware that alcohol. street
drug!'&gt; and tobacco use during
pregnancy may cause serious
birth defects; that folic acid
may· help prevent neutral
tube defects of the brain and
spinal cord; and those who
know the signs of pre-term
labor and what to do if it happens also have been aided by
the March of Din1c:-..
This year's Tri-County

Dear Dr. Brothers: I
have Jet myself go, as they
say, and find that after three
kids I am a lot heavier than I
want to be. None of my family understands how easy it
is to be too tired to exercise
and toq busy to give up fast
food, etc. I was out to lunch
with my parents, and my
sandwich came with fries.
My mom told me not to eat
them because my husband
had said she should make
sure I didn't have any carbs.
Do you think it is wrong for
them to be spying on me? -

A.K.

Dear A.K.: I don't think I
would actually characterize
what they are doing as spying, but it does seem that they
are trying to monitor your
eating habits and help you get
back on the right track. But,
like giving up smoking or
changing other really difficult
bad habits, your weight isn't
going to come off just
because your parents and
husband want it to. Until you
get motivated and find the
program
and
lifestyle

changes that feel right for
you, the family\ effmt&lt;; probably will continue. and you
will find it very annoying and
hurtful. Even though you
know they are acting in your
best intere!'&gt;ts. I'm :-.ure it is

you

Viability of health care riform
Bv D.W.

MAcKENZIE

THE INDEPENDENT INSTITUTE

Now that the health care reform bill
has been signed, it will face legal
challenges in courtrooms. However,
the judges in these cases do not possess the authority needed to render a
final verdict on health care reform.
The success or failure of health care
reform ultimately depends upon
whether or not it coAforms to economic laws. rather than with the opinions of judges.
In order to judge health care reform
by economic laws, we must ascertain
its nature. The single payer and publie option versions did not pass.
However, Americans will be required
to have health insurance. and employers will be pressured to pr~vide it.
Congress is funding health care
through explicit taxes and new mandates for buying or supplying "private'' health insurance. Mandates
amount to implicit taxation. These
explicit and implicit taxes amount to
a de-facto single payer. Since health
care is headed towards political control, we must ask if this will result in
a more efficient or more just outcome.
The health care industry is complex
and subject to constant change.
Complexity and change make industrial planning difficult. Plans must be
adapted continuously through time. If
the authors of health care reform
knew about all change in advance,
they could have written a bill that
accounts for every contingency.
Health care reform will actually be a

permanent work in-progress. The fact
that health care ref01m WiJI be revised
casts doubt upon the Congressional
Budget Office forecast of financial
savings. Given that this legislation
will be revised - and has already
been changed - we cannot assume
that CBO numbers will remain true.
The CBO al-.o predicted that Social
Security would generate surpluses
until 2016, but this system recently
went into deficit. The co~ts of public
programs tend to lise over time, but
why? ·
·
Ideally. legislators pursue what
some term "social justice'' through
redistribution. Everyone favors "justice." but people have different opinions as to what constitutes a fair distribution of wealth. No one comprehends all the factors that would have
to enter into an actual estimate of
"socially just" income distribution.
Since "social justice" has no objective meaning. the pursuit of this goal
always degenerat~s into power struggles among interest groups.
The reality of politics is interest
groups competing for influence.
Competition often controls costs, but
not in politics. Political competition
favors narrow and concentrated interest groups. Small interest groups
organize more easily and divide gains
fewer ways relative to larger groups.
Individual citizens cannot appreciably affect politics. and "the people"
as a whole are too diverse and dispersed to organize against special
interests. Politics is driven by a few
political powerbrokers (i.e. the
• Speaker of the House) and special

interests. Anyone who believes that
health care regulation wilL as
President Obama has put it. s·erve the
American people, does not understand the economics of politics: special interest groups wield dispropor-·
tionate influence and impose wastcfu
transfers.
We can see the failure of politics in
Medicare. Medicare has problems
with waste and is underfunded. The
underfundlng of Medicare is not an
honest mistake. Politicians knew
about the costs of baby boomer retirement decades ago. and they failed to
set aside funds to cover these costs.
They took the politically popular and financially unsound - path o1
profligate spending and low taxes relative to obvious future burdens.
Americans who want to move in
the direction of publicly financing
health care have the best intentions.
However. there is no way of realizing
dreams of social justice or improved
efficiency through politics. The term
"social justice" lacks any real meaning. Economic laws and history indicate that public programs result in .
wasteful transfers to special interests.
Health care does need reform. We
should consider using the only system that really controls costs: com•
petitive free enterprise.

When facing tough times. most
Americans tum to the arts. We crank
up our favorite songs on the radio. go
to a movie, or settle in for an evening
of "Dancing with the Stars." And yet
as our country struggles through one
of its worst economic periods, our
leaders seem oblivious to the pivotal
role the arts can play in our recovery.
Seventy-five years ago our leaders
· made better use of our cultural
strengths. When President Roosevelt
led the country during the Great
Depression of the 1930s, he understood that the arts generated'hope and
community pride, and he invested in
them as part of his recovery strategy.
The centerpiece of his recovery
program was the massive Works
Progress Administration (WPA). and
it supported arts. drama. media. oral
history and literacy programs side by
side with programs to construct public buildings and roads. The WPA
employed more than 40.000 artists.
including many of the best m1ists of
the period, such as Eudora Welty,
Zora
Neale
Hurston.
Louise
Nevelson, Langston Hughes. Orson
Welles and Arthur Miller. These
artists eventually became American
cultural icons. but during the
Depression, they were out of work
along with everyone else.

During his election campaign,
President Obama recognized that the
country was facing a cri~is of imagination. He campaigned on a platform
of hope and convened a National Arts
Policy Committee of 33 arts leaders.
He promised to be a champion of the
arts and said. ·'To remain competitive
in the global economy. America
needs to reinvigorate the kind of creativity and innovation that has made
this country great."
But in his recent State of the Union
speech about the economic stimulus
programs. the president did not
include the arts. He announced that 2
million Americans had been hired
because of his programs. and he
spoke proudly of hiring construction
and clean-energy workers, teachers.
police officers. firefighters. first
responders and correctional officers.
He did not mention hiring artists.
To be fair. his administration hasn't
completely ignored the arts in its
recovery plans. The National
Endowment for the Arts received $50
million of stimulus funds last year
despite strong Republican opposition
- but that is a miniscule percentage
· of the total Recovery Act package of
$787 billion.
The total budget appropriation for
the NEA this year is only $167.5 million - enou~h for about 7,600 jobs at
a salary of .ll22 .000 per year - the
poverty level for a family of four.

Does anyone serious! y belie\ e that
such a meager investment is adeyuate
to maintain the cultural vitality of a

Alcohol agents
converge on Fla.
town where Cincy
prep player died
PANAMA CITY, Fla. (AP) - Even before a Notre Dame
football recnut died in a drunken fall from a hotel balcony,
extra alcohol enforcement agents were on duty in this
Panhandle town, just as they are every year for spring
break. officials said Monday.
Matt James. 17, of Cincinnati, was the second teenager in
two weeks to die. Police say the 6-foot-6. 290-pound offensive lineman was drunk and acting belligerent when he fell
Friday night as he leaned over a fifth-floor railing to shake
his finger at people in an adjoining room.
Brandon Kohler, a 19-year-old from Winder. Ga., died
March 24 when he also fell from a fifth-floor balcony at
another Panama City hotel.
The Florida Division of Alcoholic Beverages and
Tobacco said it sends 18 agents - up from five the rest of
the year - to Panama City during spring break because of
the high school and college ~tudents who go there.
'
Between March 11 and March 28, agents arrested 985
people in Panama City for underage possession of an alcoholic beverage. spokeswoman Jennifer Meale said.
An autopsy showed James died of brain injuries. Whit
Majors. an exammer with the medical examiner's office,
said Monday it would take up to three months to get toxicology tests completed that would show James' blood-alcohol content.
Police said James was in Panama City with six adults and
40 fellow students from St. Xavier High School.
Panama City police officials did not return calls to The
Assocwted Press on Monday, but Maj. David Humphreys
told ABC's Good Morning America that witnesses said
James had broken items in the hotel room before he fell.
He said investigators have not determined where James
got the alcohol or if someone bought it for him. Humphreys
had said previously that criminal charges are possible if
police learn who bought the alcohol.
Steve Specht. St. Xavier's head coach, said James and the
others were not on a school-sponsored trip.
"It was completely individual decisions;· he said, adding
that there also was a "mix of kids." not all football players.
Specht said there were no official chaperones. disputing
the term that police used to describe the adults.
"I think 99 percent of the kids that go down there are
completely alone, and I think there were some parents that
were vacationing down there, but to say they v.ere chaperones ts just, is incredulous, and I'm sorr} but that's just
ignorant," Specht said. "A chaperone implies that kids are
staying under the roof of someone who is constantly watch·ng over them. I don't understand that."
Specht declined to discuss James· alcohol use, saying "1
think you trivialize the situation if you sta1t focusing on
that. A young man, a 17-year-old young man.lost h1s life."
James originally planned to go to the University of
Cincinnati. where Brian Kelfy coached the last three years.
When Kelly left for Notre Dame after the season, James
reconsidered and chose the Fighting Irish over Cincinnati
and Ohio State.

Christian convert
.
fights to stay in U.S.
BY MATT LEINGANG
ASSOCIATED PRESS

COLUMBUS - A teenage girl who converted to
Christianity and ran away from home is being blocked by her
Muslim parents from fighting the possibility of deportation. her
attorney told a judge Monday in an ongoing custody dispute.
Rifqa Bary. 17. who fled home last year and stayed with
a Florida minister whom she met on Facebdok. is an illegal
immigrant and does not want to be returned to her native
Sri Lanka because she fears being ha1:med or killed by
Muslim extremists.
Her attorney, Angela Lloyd, asked a judge to sign an
order :-;tating that reunification with her parents is not possible by her 18th birthday in August.
The order would allow Bary. who is in foster care, to apply
for special immigration status without her parents' consent.
. Omar Tarazi, an attorney for the parents, objected, telling
the judge that he had been unaware of Bary 's separate maneuver to apply to an immigration court. He said the parents previously filed an immigration application for the whole family.
Franklin County Juvenile Court Judge Elizabeth Gill .
declined to issue the order without first holding a hearing
next month. She also decli11ed to remove a gag order that
prevents attorneys from discussing the case publicly.
Bary and her parents, Mohamed and Aysha Bary. have
agreed to follow a counseling plan drawn up by a county
child welfare agency to try to resolve the family's conflict.
It requires both sides to work with individual counselors
and to try to attend join counseling. But a face-to-face
meeting remains unlikely any time soon.
Jim Zorn, a children's services attorney, told the judge
that Bary continues to believe that a reconciliation with her
parents is impossible. Bary's counselor has indicated that
contact with her parents would be premature. he said.
Bary has also complained that her parents have not respond·
ed to an emotional letter sent to them through a counselor that
• explains why their relationship broke down, Lloyd said.
The letter was more like a list of 20 questions that felt
like a backdoor interrogation prepared by attorneys. Tarazi
said. It includ~d questions such as, "Why don't I have
happy memories of my childhood?" he said.
The parents want to respond but also want a-.surances that Bary's
attorneys are not interfering with the process, lltrazi said. Judge Gill
ordered both attorneys to stay away from the counselors.
Bary's case has drawn national attention, especially
among bloggers, with antHslam groups warning she could
face death and some Muslim groups saying she's being
exploited by outsiders. The girl ran away last July, saying
she couldn't stay with her parents because she feared for"
her life for converting to Christianity. Authorities found no
evidence that she faced harm in Ohio. Police in Columbus
continue to investigate whether anyone broke the law by
helping Bary run away.
Bary's father alleges a Columbus minister drove her to a
Greyhound station where she received a bus ticket and took
a bus to Orlando, Fla. There, she stayed with a minbtcr and
his wife for about two weeks before the state of Florida
took custody of her and returned ht!r to Ohio.

Innocence groups back ·
condemned Ohio killer
BY ANDREW WELSH-HUGGINS
ASSOCIATED PRESS

COLUMBUS - Innocence groups
from around the country on Monday
asked the U.S. Supreme Court to hear
the case of an Ohio man sentenced to
die in September for fatally shooting
three people.
The national Innocence Network
and a group of eyewitness 'testimony
experts filed papers Monday asking
the court to review the evidence
against death row inmate Kevin
Keith. The network. which has filed
only four similar requests in the past
two years. says it considers the evidence in Keith's case compelling.
Keith ·s lawyers say courts have
never heard the full amount of evidence they say could exonerate him.
That includes an alternate suspect
who boasted he was going to carry out
the killings. an enlarged photo of Keith
useJ JUJ ing a picture lineup anJ witnesses who say Keith was elsewhere.
"Without the intervention of this
cou11, a man whom the state has
deprived of a fair trial will be put to
death by that same state." Innocence

N\!twork lawyers said in their filing.
Keith, 46, was sentenced .to die for
killing three people, including a 7ycar-old girl, in a 1994 .shooting in
northern Ohio that also wounded
three others.
Police and prosecutors allege Keith
opened fire on the group in retaliation
for a drug arrest that he blamed on a
snitch related to the victims.
Keith has exhausted his regular
state and federal appeals.
A message was left with the Ohio
Attorney General seeking comment.
Prosecutors in Crawford County have
previously said Keith is attempting to
repackage already rejected claims.
The shooting happened Feb. 13,
I 994, at an apartment in Bucyrus,
about 65 miles north of Columbus.
Prosecutors say Keith entered the
apartment and sprayed it with gunfire.
killing Marichell Chatman, 24; her 4year-old daughter, Marchae; and the
child's aunt, Linda Chatman, 39.
Marichell Chatman was the brother of
an undercover police informant
whose efforts led to· a four-count
indictment against Keith for selling
drugs, according to prosecutors.

Three others were shot that nig.
but survived: Richard Warren, who
would testify against Keith at trial;
Quanita Reeves, 7: and her brother
Quinton Reeves, 4.
Keith's public defenders say they
uncovered evidence that bolsters a
theory first presented at Keith's trial:
that there was another suspect.
That person was a suspect in a
series of pharmacy robberies around
the time of the killings. He testified at
trial that he told surviving family
members that the shootings might
have been in retaliation over the
informant.
Keith's attorneys found additional
information in the files of an Ohio
Pharmacy Board investigator who
had been looking into the pharmacy
robberies. In those files, the other
suspect said before the shootings that
he had been paid $15,000 to "cripple"
the informant.
Prosecutors say the claims aren't
any different than what came up at
trial.
Keith's attorneys also say a detectivt; perjured himself in describin.
how a survivor identified Keith.

Stimulus funds sprucing up old neighborhoods
NFWARK (AP) - Ohio cities are
using federal stimulus money to
knock down or remodel old homes in
an effot1 to revitalize aging neighborhoods.
Columbus hopes to remove 64
homes this year as part of $22.8 million in federal funds the city i.s getting
in a first round of the program.
In Newark. officials originally were
going to tear down a lot of homes but
decided it would be better to rebuild
them.
The idea is to turn the homes into
places that will attract families, said
Dan Coffman. Newark's coordinator
for the Neighborhood Stabilization
Program.
"You don't tear down unless you

have to,'' Coffman said. "It's better
for the comm':!J1ity and the neig.hborhood to salvage a home if possible.''
Once a home is renovated. the city
sets the price at market value to help
stabilize the home prices in the neigh·
borhood.
Low- to mid-income homebuyers
can receive a subsidy to help them pay
for the home if they agree to certain
terms, such as staying in it for I 0 years.
Newark already has sold one
rehabbed home for $80.000, which
cost $70.000 to renovate. With another ready for sale, the city is ahead of
schedule in using its federal funds by
the program's September deadline.
While only eight of the planned 160
projects in Columbus are under con-

struction. city officials say their
investment in planning last summer
will pay off in new work starting soon.
Columbus !'las collected about 200
properties in the project's land bank,
which helps clear important legal
hurdles to reconstruction or demolition.
Demolition bids will soon be sought
in nearby Licking County, where the
county plans on knocking down 46
homes in five communities with most
of the $1 million it received from the
federal government.
The process has been slowed by the
difficulty in establishing ownership
of some of the properties, said
Warren Weber, the county's community development manager.

initiated the event in 1993 to promote safety in sports
participation.

Childhood Sports Injuries: A Common and
Serious Problem
More than 38 million children and adolescents
participate in organized sports in the United States
each year. Still more participate in
informal recreational activities
Although sports participation
provides numerous physical and
social benefits, it also has a
downside: the risk of sports-related
injuries. In fact, according to a 2002
report by the Centers for Disease
Control, nearly 1.9 million children
under 15 were treated in emergency
departments the year before for
sports-related injuries.
The Most Common Sports·
Related Injuries in Kids
Although sports injuries can range
from scrapes and bruises to serious brain and spinal
cord injuries, most fall somewhere between the two
extremes. Here are some of the more common types
of injuries.
Sprains and Strains
A sprain IS an injury to a ligament, one of the bands
of tough, fibrous tissue that connects two or more
bones at a joint and prevents excessive movement of
the joint. An ankle sprain is the most common athletic
injury.
A strain is an injury to either a muscle or a tendon. A
muscle is a tissue composed of bundles of
specialized cells that, when stimulated by nerve
messages, contract and produce movement. A
tendon is a tough , fibrous cord of t1ssue that connects
muscle to bone. Muscles in any part of the body can
be injured.

Growth Plate Injuries
In some sports accidents and injuries, the growth
plate may be injured. The growth plate is the area of
developing tissues' at the end of the long bones in
growing children and adolescents. When growth is
complete, sometime during adolescence, the growth
plate is replaced by solid bone.
If any of these areas become injured, it's important to
'seek professional he.lp from an orthopedic surgeon, a
doctor who specializes in bone injuries.

Repetitive Motion Injuries
Painful injuries such as stress fractures (a hairline
fracture of the bone that has been subjected to
repeated stress) and tendonitis (inflammation of a
tendon) can occur from overuse of muscles and
tendons Some of these injuries don't always show up
on x rays, but they do cause pain and discomfort. The
injured area usually responds to rest, ice,
compression, and elevation (RICE). Other treatments
can include crutches, cast
immobilization, and physical therapy.
Heat-Related Illnesses
Heat-related illnesses include:
dehydration (deficit in body fluids);
heat exhaustion (nausea, dizziness,
weakness, headache, pale and
moist skin, heavy perspiration,
normal or low body temperature,
weak pulse, dilated pupils,
disorientation, and fainting spells);
and, heat stroke (headache,
dizziness, confusion, and hot dry
skin, possibly leading to vascular
collapse, coma, and death).
Heat injuries are always dangerous and can be fatal.
Heat-related injuries are a particular problem for
children because children perspire less than adults
and require a higher core body temperature to trigger
sweating. Playing rigorous sports in the heat requires
close monitoring of both body and weather
conditions. Fortunately, heat-related illnesses can be
prevented.

Treatment
Treatment for sports-related injuries will vary by
injury. But if your chHd suffers a soft tissue injury
(such as a sprain or strain) or a bone injury, the best
immed1ate treatment is easy to remember: RICE
(rest, ice, compression, elevation) the injury. Get
professional treatment if any injury is severe. A
severe injury means having an obvious fracture or
dislocation of a joint, prolonged swelling, or prolonged
or severe pain.

Pujols hits~ HRs, Cardinals beat Reds 11-6
CINCINNATI (AP)- On
only his second swing of the
season.
Albert
Pujols
knocked one over the wall.
A fev..· innings later. he did it
again.
The National League's
MVP each of the last two
seasons is off to another
in\'aluable start, this time
with Mark McGwire providing the pointers.
Pujols went 4 for 5 and
had two of the Cardinals'
team-record four homers on
opening day Monday. routing the Cincinnati Reds ll-6
on an unseasonably warm
afternoon that belonged to
power hiners.
Past and present.
Yadier Molina completed
the Cardinals· first fourhomer opener with a grand
slam in the ninth. Only two
other Cardinals have hit
slams in season openers Scott Rolen and McGwire.
who was back in uniform on
Monday as St. Louis' batting coach.
Not that they nteded
much of Big Mac's help in
this one.
"We had a great spring
training with him - his
knowledge and the things he
talked about with the young
guys and myself." Pujols
said. "We don't want to try
to make Mark look good.
We're going to try to do the

best we can to help our ballclub win. and that's what we
did. If we're able to do that:
we 'II make everybody look
good.''
McGwire returned to
baseball as the Cardinals'
batting instructor this season. acknowledging that he
used steroids when he broke
the home run record in
1998. The crowd of 42,493
fifth-largest in Great
American Ball Park history
- had little reaction when
he jogged onto the field
with the rest of the
Cardinals coaches pregame.
It was almost as though
the fans didn't realize he
was there.
No way ~hey could ignore
Pujols.
He got the loudest boos
during pregame introductions. then put on a show.
Aaron Harang (0-1) struck
out the first two Cardinals.
getting the crowd revved.
Up came Pujols. v.·ho took
two pitches out of the strike
zone, fouled one off, then
connected on a high fastball.
A collective "Oh!'' rose

from the crowd as the ball
took flight toward the Reds'
bullpen area.
"You've got that crowd
going in the first inning, and
you \Vant to make sure vou
find a way to calm them
down," Pujols said.
He added a two-run shot
off Mike Lincoln, a line
drive that barely cleared the
wall. Pujols also singled
twice. tying the club record
for most hits on opening
day.
''That's
why
there ·s
nobody better playing the
game today than him," manager Tony La Russa said.
"He's an amazing player. He
works like a maniac and
he's ready every game."
Pujols won his third NL
MVP award overall after
batting .327 with 47 homers
despite a chronically sore
right elbow last year. He had
six bone spurs removed
from the elbow in the offseason. and didn't waste
time shov.:ing he might be
even better now.
"If you make a mistake,
he's right on it," said
Harang. who fell to 1-4 in
five opening day statts for
Cincinnati. "It makes it
tough on a pitcher to get him
out. The more careful vou
try to be. the more likely
you are to make a mistake.
Guys like him and (Barry)
Bonds. you can't be intimi-

dated. The more you try to
nitpick. they flourish on that
stuff."
Colby
Rasmus.
the
Cardinals' top hitter in
spring training, also had a
solo homer off Harang .
caught ;Rolen's fly by
top of the outfield fence 111
the sixth inning . He added a
run-scoring si ngle as the
Cardinals pulled away in the
ninth.
,
Molina's first career grand
slam off Nick Masset completed the Cardinals' opening-day splurge that started
with Pujols.
"That's why he's the
best." Molina said. ''He's
the MVP. man."
Chris Carpenter (1-0) had
onl:&gt; one shaky inning out of
his six o n a sunny. 78degree afternoon. Joey
Votto and Ro len hit solo
homers in the fourth off
Carpenter, who gave up
only seven homers last season. when he led the NL
with a 2.24 ERA.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday; April6, 2010:
This year, assess what is happening in your professional em·ironment and your feelings about the;e
issues. In some manner, your community and work
lit.'h are changing. They may not work anymore. Be
....,,;,lling to support yourself in a needed change. l\o
matter what happens in your life this year, you'JIJ,md
on your feet like c1 cal. If you are single, you could
meet someone extremely caring. though you might
not really know this person for a long time. Gi,·e
yourself a year before you make any commitment... If
you are attached, the two of vou benefit from some
romc1ntic gelaw,lys ... why not? CAPRI COR.'\ c.m be
pushy.

after six full innings before
adding two more in the seventh for an 8-0 edge.

What a ride it was.
The return of alum and

Bob Huggins as coach three
years ago ignited a sportsloving fan base across West
Virginia. The state doesn't
have a professional sports

were No. l. 2. and 3 on the
priority list. well ahead of
adopted baseball teams in
Pittsburgh and Cincinnati.
The state's mostly bluecollar residents identified
with Huggins' straightforward, loyalty-above-everything approach and appreciated the gritty team he put

The dream ended with a
thud against Duke, and
Butler had to be helped off
the floor. The school said
Sunday that he tore the
ACL in his left knee and
sprained the medial collateral ligament. a devastating
injury for the senior.
A tough end, but a trip no
