You m1ght want to share this with her - calmly explain that you only want the best for her and hate to see her wonying about small things. You also can take another. more empathetic view of yolll' friend's situation. which might help her more. If she is, in fact. trulv anxiou.., and upset by all of these small situations that others don't find upsetting. you can try stepping into her shoes when she talks to vou about these experiences. Think about something that upsets you and how you feel in that situation, and realize that that is what she's going through over and over. You can talk to her about \Vhat makes her anxious or upset. and about how she can work on those things. While the situations may not be a big deal to you or me, your friend's feelings are real enough to her.

' • •• Dear Dr. Brothers: I have a pretty long and aggravating commute to work, and it definitely turns me into a bit of a crazy person. I never thought of this as road rage until• I was descnbing my commute to a friend. It's been getting worse and worse lately, and I don't know what to do about it. I lo\e my job. and it's wotth the commute. but I don't want to sacrifice m~ happiness and health over it. Arc there any ways I can de-stress on the road and try to control this road rage?- W.M. Dear W.M.: AccordirH! to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. in just over 20 years, the number of miles driven in the U.S. has increased by 35 percent, while the miles of pavement have increac;;ed by only I perocnt. ·n1at means that thl're arc more cars than ever on the roads, and that can indeed be frustratmg. Perhaps the worst part of facing your commute is if \ou're n.•shed or running late. Making a pomt to leave extra time for you~ drive can lower your stress le\el starting the minute you get in the car, and preparing a routine for the beginnmg and end of your day means that you won't forget wh~re you put your keys. or leave your cell phone on the kitchen counter. There are plent) of other ways to lower your stress m the car. Sunply being aware of your body and focusing on n..:la.xing the tension in your musc)es can create a postti\e distraction. You also cmr try breathing cxerctse-; and maintaining good posture while dFi,·ing. Taking alternate routes oan break up the monotony and allow you to feel more in control of the '>ituation. You also can listen to a Book on Tape. podcast or favorite CD to give you something t6 look forward to "'hen ) ou get in the car. Carpooling can help too, for the social aspects of the drive. Truly. controllin2: road rage is all abL)Ut being in the right frame of minl when you get in the~car.

A _farewell to bullfigt'lts in northeastern Spain BARCELONA, Spain (AP) - La-.vmakcrs in the region of Catalonia thrust a sword deep into Spain's centuries-old tradition of hullfight•ing, banning the bloodsoaked pageant that hab fascinated artists and writers from Goya to Hemingway. Wednesday's vote in the Catalan parliament prohibits bullfighting starting in 2012 in the northeastern region that centers on Barcelona. Although animal rights actiYists want to extend the ban, there is no significant national movement to do awav with bullfighting in the rest of Spain. Many see the vote as a political statement by a wealthy and powerful regron that likes to assert how different it is from the rest of Spain. rather than an expres ~ sion of concern over cruelt) to the half-ton beasts by sword-wielding matadors. The center-right Popular Party. which is fervent about the idea of a unified Spain run from Madrid, said it will fight the ban - the first by a major region in the country. It will press the national Parliament to pass a law giving protected status to bullfighting and har regions from outlawing jt. said Alicia SanchezCamacho. president of the party's Catalan branch. Still, animal rights activists rejoiced and cheers broke out in Cataloma 's 135-seat legislature when the speaker announced the ban had passed 68-55 · with nine abstentions. ··we are euphoric w·ith the banning of bullfighting in Catalonia. It's the beginmng of the end,'' said Nacho Pauncro. prcsid~nt of the animal rights group Refuge, which collected 50,000 signatures in a bid to force a similar vote in the Madrid regional parliament. ''We want debate in .Madrid now." • Tbe practical effect of the ban is limited: • Catalonia has onl) one functioning bullring, in :Barcelona, while another little used one is being turned into a shopping mall. It stages 15 fights a year that arc rarely sold out: out of a nationwide total · of roughly 1.000 bou;s per season. Still, bullfighting fans - who count Kin!! Juan Carlos in their number - and Spanish conservatives have taken the drama over the "fiesta nacional" very serioustv seeino a stinorno rebuke i~ the -g~as~ roots driYe that started in the region last year. "l'm not particularly a fan of bullfighting, but there's a long tradition of it in Spain. especially Ill Barcelona. 1 am pretty muchh.againstI · b annmg anyt mg. would have ,';'oted . against it." "said Juan Antonio Samaranch Jr.. son of the )ate former head of the International Olympic Committee. "On such a decisive issue I think the safer response h not to ban anything. We should show respect for the tradition. It's part of our culture," said Samaranch. a Barcelona nativc and IOC member v. ho added that he does not attend hullfights. • Joan Puigcercos. a lawmaker from a Catalan pro-independence party. insisted the ban was not .tbout politics or national identity but rather "the suffering of the animal. That is the question. nothing more." Even thou2h attendance at bullfighting is declining. the lawrnakers needed to assert their moral authoritv. Puigccrcos said. rather than just allow it to die on its own. But Catalan regional prcsidcnt Jose Monti II a said the legislators should have let bulifigh!ing vanish on its own. rather than legislate an end to it' and deny the people ·5 right to choose whether to go the ring. Ernest Hemingway wrote about bullfie:hting and the running of the bulls in Spain's annual San Fermin FestiYal in his 1924 novel. ''The Sun Abo Rises," and about the traditions of the sport in hi<; later nonfiction book, "Death in the Afternoon." Bullfighting is also popular in Mexico, parts of South America, southern France and Portugal. Animal rights groups seeking hans in other parts of Spain or abroad were energized by the vote. "The ~uffering of animals in the Catalan bullrings has been abolished once and for all. It has created a precedent we hope will be replicated by other democratic parliaments intl!rnationally, in those regions and countries where l>Uch cruel bullfights arc still allowed," sar'd Leonard o A ~~~e 11111. , h f . o.

If it were called the ·Catalan fiesta: they "'ould not mind." Yictoriano del Rio, a Madrid-area bull breeder whose fami lv has J been in the business since the 18th century, called the ban a pointless act by "mediocre" politicians seeking attention. He prcdil:tcu it could backfire because ''banning things makes people want them more.'' The first Spamsh region to outlaw bullfighting was the Caqary Islands in 1991. but the fights were never popular there.

For carnivores like the Amur leopard, it's "bloodsicles." Zoos across the country are using icy treats, shade, water and every conceivable form of cooling machine to help hundreds of thousands of animals, visitors and workers beat the heat this summer. Even animals from Africa can have problems with extreme heat. says Lion Country Safari wildlife director Terry Wolf. "It can be pretty stressful to some of them," he said. So at the Loxahatchee park in southern Florida, rhinos, tortoises and birds have slushy wet mud holes and water buffalo have s and lakes pumped . .of water. Diets have changed from winter protein to summer fiber. Earlier this month, temperatures soared past 100 in New York City, ,Philadelphia, Boston. Washington, D.C., and Newark, N J .. and broke records in Providence,RL and Hartford, Conn. In the West. Southern California, Arizona and New Mexico were in triple digits. Death Valley in eastern California reached 125 degrees. The lions have wet moats. primates and outdoor birds get shade and mist, jaguars and Andean bears have swimming pools. and the orangutans hang out near air conditioning vents at the Houston Zoo, said Brian Hill. director of public affairs. Ice, frozen in everything snowcone cups to allon buckets. is a • treat. the Essex County Tuttle Back Zoo in West Orange. N J.. uses fishsicles and bloodsicles, along with "fruitsicles" for bears and ice cream and Italian ices for the humans. explained zoo director Jeremy Goodman. Some animals sweat and some are just as susceptible as humans to heat stroke and heat exhaustion. Some even get sunburned. "We apply sunscreen to our pig," Goodman said. The Phoeniz (Ariz.) Zoo is probably the nation's hottest, said Dan Subaitis. director of animal manage- . ment there for the past five , years. For three months every summer, it is 110 to 115 degrees during the day. the humidity reaches 60 percent and the nights ht "cool off' to 90 or degrees, he said. Staff • constantly watches the animals, guests and each other for signs of heat distress. "Our reptile collection likes heat. but our heat is even too hot for most of them, so they will head for their pools," Subaitis said. You won't find any moose or polar bears at the zoo because it would cost too much to keep them cool. The orangutans have learned to help by making their own hats, Subaitis said. "We give them old shirts or burlap sacks and they will get them wet and drape them over their heads." Throughout the zoo, there are fans, misters. evaporative coolers, tree~. grass, artificial shade, ponds, sprinklers, spouts, hoses, drinking fountains and rest areas. Guests can g fully stocked cooland ice chests and visit • starting at 7 a.m. Besides keeping them cool. workers try to keep the animals calm, reducing as much stress as possible. They put off as many summer veterinary procedures as they can .. "We do not want an ammal to get agitated or nervous. That will increase body temperature and if you add that to an environmental temperature of 110, "' AP photos/J Pat Carter Joe Cavaretta, left, takes photos of his daughter, Sophia Cavaretta, 2, and his wife Amy Beth Bennett as they plant strawberries at their Oakland Park, Fla. home April 22.

"If we have to put our hands on an animal because they have some kind of medical issue. we have to juggle whether or not the issue is more critical than what might happen if they O\'erheat in the capture process.'' he said. A new, $20 million, 17acre Polar f'rontier at the Columbus (Ohio) Zoo and Aquarium has an acre-plus home for 3- year-old polar bear sisters Anana and Aurora. The 600-pound bears have a chilled pool (stocked with 500 or 600 trout). trees. a grassy area. and 24-hour access to air conditioned dens. said Doug Warmolts. director of animal care. They get piles of il:c to roll in and heavy duty balls or 55-gallon plastic drums to roll around, he said. "There arc big rocks next to the side of the pool and they leap off and do these great belly smack- ers.'' Warmolts said. · Anyone worried about nature taking its course can be assured that the heat does little to stop the birds and the bees. The Cincinnati (Ohio) Zoo & Botanical Garden is nicknamed the "sexiest zoo in America" because of all the births there through the years. The title. is probably safe because heat doesn't alter the sex lives of animals as much as instinct and light does. explained curator of mammals Mike Dulaney. CORAL GABLES, Fla. - I am the stereotypical trigger-happy first-time parent. I've taken more than 10.000 pictures of my son - and he's barely a year old. While I love the fact that I've been able to capture so many pn::ciuu~ rnurm:nts, then:: l:an be lou much of a gUlXl thing. Currently these photos are plopped in a giant folder on my computer. I don't envision him browsing through these thousands. and thousands of digital shots the way I flip through my baby albums stuffed with printed photographs. And that's a shame. Linda Murray. editor-in-chief of BabyCenter.com. assures me I'm not alone in this dilemma. Many moms on popular website say they have completely replaced the traditional photo album - and presumably more than a few of them are fellow shutterbugs. ··we keep going and going and going because there's no expense to it." says Murray. describing the mixed blessing of preserving memories in the digital age. "We're all out there taking all these photos ... so now we have the back-end problem." Turns out. there are countless options for storing and sharing digital photos. You can upload them onto webbao;ed albums on specialized .sites like Shutterfly. or social networking sites like Facebook and BabyCenter Community. You can do\'.:nload ~oftware like Picasa that will organize photos on your desktop, or use a program like iPhoto on Macs. You can make an online scrapbook of sorts by keeping a photo blog - mostly pictures. some captions and occasional anecdotes. (It's wise to make backups of your photos on an external hard ~rive or CDs in case - shudder at the thought - something happens to vour computer or a host web~ite.) For· a purely digital experience in displaying the images, you can get an electronic frame that rotates through all the photos on a memory card. For a ~oot in both worlds, you can use one of the photo webs1tes or software to place an order for a printed album. Whatever you do with the photos. Murray says. the key lies in winnowing them do\vn to a manageable handful of favorites - professionals call these ''hero shots" - and using a labeling system that's easy to remember. Sure enough. photographer-mom Amy B~th Bennett ~f Oakland Park. Fla.. approaches her 2-year-old daughter s photo blog the way she does an assignment. Out of a couple of hu.ndred photographs. she 'II pick only a few to P.ost for family and friends - ones that ha,·e the most telhng moments. No one wants to slog through the equivalent of a vacation slideshow. Bennett says. "You just want them t9 see how your girl's doing.'' . Then. like she does at the office. Bennett g1ves each of those photos a filename consisting of the date and event (sandbox, train ride. etc.) so she can search for and find them easily. After that. they go into a folder named after the year- 20lO,say- and at year's end. Benne~ chooses among them to create a printed album for relatives ..

Atwood Hall stands on the far left and was built in 1876. Allen Hall on the current college campus rests on the site. RGVFD from Page Cl Of the fire vehicles used by the RGVFD. most have been boucht as used vehicles. The~ most recent. truck 40, is a 19lJ5 Chevy rescue truck that was bought through the hard work of the RGVFD Ladies Au:dliary and gencrou-; supp011 from the community. The oldest member of the RGVFD fleet is a 1936 hand-made fire truck that still has its original synthetic tirec, that were produced only during World War II due to rubber :.hortages. The old red and green fire-truck is still operational and according to Brandeberry, "ntns like a sewing machine." but is now mainly used in local parades. In the beginning. the RGVFD did not really have a station at all, but the entire operation was a shed that contained the pull-behind fire device. An actual :.tation for the volunteers was not bui It until the late 1940s of glued brick and, although the building is no longer in use, it stands adjacent to the current fire station. This empty . fire station also hou-.ed a · meeting room where the village council would hold their public meetings. The original fire siren, which had to be manually turned on, also still stands upon a 70foot pole next to the empty three-bay building. The current fire station i:s much more energy efficient and stands a~ a te-;tament to the growth of the department and the commitment of the many volunteers. Indeed, according to Brandeberry. basically all of the fire depat1ments in southeastern Ohio are all volunteer and probably 80 percent of the United States' fire departments arc \'Olunteer as well . "This is what keeps the world functioning and P-rotected: Volunteers,'' Brandeberrv said. It takes a special t) pe of person to volunteer at a fire department. Brandeberry explained, and every volunteer has to understand that they will be caUed out in the middle of the night, when it is raining the heaviest and when snow makes roads virtu-· ally impassable. "There's a certain makeup of volunteers in a community." Brandeberry said. "They w·ant to do something for their community in time of need," and this group of volunteers are ready at a moment's notice. Thev carry their radios with them at all times and man) have their clothes laying out each night in case the) are called out. There are normally 30 people on staff at the RGVFD, with many li'ing within walking distance of the station in the village of Rio Grande but Brandeberry also praised his outlying volunteers who live and respond throughout the RGVFD district in Perry and Raccoon townships. The RGVFD responds to 70-80 calls a year and last year they responded to 117. an exceedingly high number. However. the RGVFD responds not onlv to fire l:alls but to trat"fic accidents and many other emergency scenes as well. "The fire department is vour first line of defense," Brand.! berry said. "The fire department arc the people there as your first responders." Unlike the old days, the new breed of \Olunteers have to have exten· <;tve training and take countle..s hours of trdining courses, 50 or more hours e\ery three years. They arc truly prepared for any situation nnd are ready for every situation. The great fire that destroyed Atwood Hall in 1937 is an unlikely . scenario in today's world. The volunt::cr~ of the RGVFD and the men and women who 'olunteer throughout the county in fire depat1ments commumcatc better than thcv ever have, have better ·eqUipment a'ailable to them and are in the business of not only sa'ing li,es. but also ke~p­ ing fire damage to a rumimum. Although, man) families are still decimated by fires each year. over the past 75 year<;, the volunteers and the families of the RGVFD have been dedicated to helping their community when they need help the most. "We've made u dent in our world here. and it's a positive dent," Brandeberry said. ASSISTED LIVING e --GALLIPOLIS-Open House August 6th At 1 :oop·. m.

The federal Clean Water Act requires states to put out the list of "'impaired waters" every two years. Matt Trokan. water conservation coordinator for the Sierra Club. says the 20 I 0 report does not reflect the tme quality of Ohio's waterways. as some of the most troubled were left out. "While about 70 percent of our watersheds in Ohio were actually tested for aquatic life and 60 percent were designated as supporting aquatic life. the OEPA said over 80 percent ,of our rivers were safe. It just doesn't seem to add up." According to the OEPA. the Maumee and Little Miami Rivers were not included because they had not • been tested for a number of years: Lake Erie and the · Ohio River were not included because they are shared with other states. Trokan believes the state agency's CUITCnt methods of sampling water are too complex. and that they could be simplified with what he tenns "citizen c;cience:· "We would really like to see the Ohio EPA change the standards for water collecting criteria. so more people can participate and make it a little easier for · people to get involved. because everybody cares about water. It's a fundamental part of our life." Accordinf! to Trokan. the OEPA should also consider adding a-nutrient standard to monitor such pollutants as phosphorus and nitrogen that can spur algae blooms. resulting in areas of low oxygen or "dead zones." The OEPA report is available online at www.epa.state.oh.us. The Sierra Club's review of the report is at www.ohiosierraclub.org. 1 · I EXTENSION (ORNER It's te~1 time in the garden.
