CAMR was meant to permanently cap and reduce mercury emissions from coal-fired power plants for the first time ever. CAMR established "standards of performance" limiting mercury emissions from new and existing coal-fired power plants, and created a market-based cap and trade program. Under this program, utilities and power plants were limited to a certain amount of mercury they were allowed to admit as a group, if they were to admit over · those limits those companies needed to buy from otherS under the limits to come into compliance. Now that the . rule has been overturned, AMPOhio's permit may need to be modified which may require a new public hearing with public comments.

' Toxic coal ash piles up · in ponds in 32 states BY DINA CAPPIELLO ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER ' WASHINGTON Millions of tons of toxic coal ash is piling up in power plant ponds in 32 states, a practice the federal government has long recog- · nized as a risk to human health and the environment .but has left unregulated. An Associated Press analysis of the most recent · Energy · Department data found that 156 coal-fired power plants store ash in . surface ponds similar to the one. that collapsed last month in Tennessee. Records indicate that states storing the most coal ash in ponds are Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Georgia and Alabama. Several are in Galli a and Mason counties. according to an AP survey of most recent data. The man-made lagoons hold a mixture of the noncombustib1e ingredients of · coal and the ash trapped by equipment designed to reduce air pollution from · tlle power plants. ~ · --. ,.1 I Over the years. the volume of waste has grown as demand for electricity increased and the federal govemm'ent clamped down on emissions from power plants. The AP's analysis found · that in 2005. the most recent · year data is available, 721 power plants generating at least 100 megawatts of electricity produced 95.8 million tons of coal ash. About 20 percent - or nearly 20 million tons - ended up in sutface ponds. The remainder ends up in landfills. or is sold for use in concrete, among other uses.

OUR VIEW Rebuilding It can only be done with cooperation Conservatives 11nd liberals alike long to be heard on what is the best course of action fer our nation. on· Thursday. President-elect Barack Obama .outlined a plan to. secure our liscal future. He spoke of rebuilding local infrastructure as a way to allow local governments to spur economic growth. If the proposed plan is approved by Congress, this would allow our region to compete on (he same footing as larger communities. With this proposal , bridges and roads would be rebuilt, encouraging the flow of traffic and trade opportunities. No longer would infrastructure plans be placed on the shelf, to wait until monies are available. Small cities. village and townships would be able to offer a better quality of living to their residents. · Schools and small business would gain access to broadband Internet, allowing fo( education to spread. beyond the f(lur walls of a classroom and giving small busmess access to an unmeasured number of c1,1stomers and a larger profit margin. Allowing hospitals to convert all current medical records .to an electronic form would. not only save live~ . but offer better a"ess to those records by all healthcare providers. The plan will also make cost-effective energy available to all, with the creation of jobs building solar panels, wind turbines and providing power plants with clean coal technology. Once again in our region, we have a chance to compete <in the same level as many larger cities. ,Of course, all of this is not without ·a cost to the American people, an amount that many cannot begin to the even .fathom. By securing these greatly neededfunds for this rescue of our nation. we know that in the future ,. ultimatelr ·w.e will have to pick up the tab by paying an increase m taxes and fees. . .. However, the continued loss of jobs, homes and security that we all share and desire is too great to oontinue to bury our heads in the sand. This is why our leaders, both locally and nationally, are challenged to put aside partisanship and work together to save our nation that we all have worked so diligently to build.

Sunday, January tt, 2009 Rainforest wood at issue in beach town r~pairs WILDWOOD, N.J. (AP) - New Jersey's most popular ·beach town is about to make a decision that has been criticized by environmentalists around the world ·- using wood cut from Amazon rainforests to repair a section of its boardwalk. Wildwood, voted the state's best beach last .summer br, vacationers and others, w11l become just the. latest of several New Jersey communities that have opted to use highly durable wood from the Brazilian ipe (pronounced "EE''-pay") tree to build or fix boardwalks. The wood looks good, lasts for decades, is strong •. ·and can withstand moisture and the corrosive effects of salt better than other species of wood, making it popular for use in boardwalks. Environmental groups . contend the world's tropical rainforests are being wiped .out by logging to satisfy demand for this kind of ·wood. Mayor Ernest Troiano Jr. said Wildwood reluctantly .turned to ipe wood only because a shipment of domestically grown black locust wood arrived in unusable condition. . "I'm not advocating tear. ing down the Brazilian rain·forests ," he said. "We wanted to use black locust, to do the right thing and the environmentally responsible . ·.thing. But the wood we ordered is nonhe wood that was delivered." Unless a last-minute alternative can be found, Wildwood will start using ipe wood within the· next few weeks to replace aging planks in front of the skee-ball arcades,I,?Ody-piercil'lg stands and fortune teller booths that Jine its boardwalk. "We have the boardwalk torn open and it needs to be fixed and ready to go by Easter," Troiano said. "If we don't get that hole closed up, it will be a nightmare for our merchants." The move comes a year after Ocean City, a fellow Cape May: County beach town, was criticized by environmentalists for using Brazilian ipe to replace part of its boardwalk. Thousands of protest e-mails from as far away as Australia, the Philippines, South Africa and New Zealand flooded the mayor's computer. · Ipe is a flowering tree that can grow to I 00 feet, towering above the forest canopy. It is Brazil's largest timber export , with half of it sold to customers in the United Slates. Ipe wood has been used in boardwalk projects from coast to coast, including Atlantic City, NJ .; New York; Baltimore; Chicago; Miami Beach, and Long Beach and Santa Monica, Calif. Environmentalists have been trying for years to promote 'the ·use of abundant, domestically grown species like black locust as an alternative to rainforest wood. And Wildwood agreed to use black locust for its boardwalk project ""- a decision that was hailed by Tim Keating, executive director of Rainforest Relief. a New Yo.rk volunteer group that opposes the use of rainforest wood. · However,· a' shipment of black locust from · a New York supplier arrived in poor condition with pieces of bark, large knots and cracks. J NORFOLK, Va. - It's the perfect gift for an old Navy flier: I ,092 feet of flattop. "What do you give a guy who has been blessed and has just about everything he has ever needed?" asked President George W. Bush from aboard the Navy's newest ship. "Well. an aircraft carrier." The USS George H.W. Bush, a steel-gray vessel longer than three football fields and built at a cost of $62 billion, was commissioned· Saturday · with its namesake, the · 41 st president. and other members of the Bush family on hand for the ceremonies at Naval Station Norfolk . Adorned for the day with red, white and blue bunting, the USS George H.W. Bush is one of the Nimitz class of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, the largest warships in the world . . "The ship that bears our dad's name is more than 95,000 tons of aluminum and steel," Bush said from a podium tucked under the flight deck.. "She will carry nearly 6,000 of the finest sailors and Marines in the world. She represents the craftsmanship of many skilled builders, and thousands of hours of preparation." Bush, who took his last scheduled !light aboard Air Force One to get to Norfolk. · added: "Laura and I are thrilled to be here to help commission an awesome ship and to honor ·an awesome man ." It was the ultimate honor for former President George H.W. Bush, a decorated World War II pilot.

He marveled at its 4.5-acre landing field. a tower that reaches 20 stories above the waterline and its 1,400 tele. phones. Speakinrg to the sailors preparing to serve on the new ship, his voice quavering at time s with emolion , the former president said: "I wish I was sitting right out there w.ith you, ready to start the adventures of my naval aviation career all oVer." Bush. 84,joined the Navy on June 12, 1942 , his 18th birthday and six months after the Jap.anese attack on Pearl Harbor. During the war he flew torpedo bombers off the USS San Jacinto . He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and three· Air Medals for his service. On a mission over the · Pacific in September 1944. Bush·s plane crashed into the ocean after being hit by Japanese anticaircraft fire. The future president parachuted into the sea and was rescued by a Navy submarine. He returned to combat and served until the end of the war. The Nimitz class of nuclear-powered aircraft carrier was first launched in 1972. The USS George H.W. Bush is the lOth and tina! ·vessel of its type. A bronze statue on its hangar bay deck depicts the former president as a youthful, smiling pilot in · his flight suit.

OUR VIEW Rebuilding It can only be done with cooperation Conservatives 11nd liberals alike long to be heard on what is the best course of action fer our nation. on· Thursday. President-elect Barack Obama .outlined a plan to. secure our liscal future. He spoke of rebuilding local infrastructure as a way to allow local governments to spur economic growth. If the proposed plan is approved by Congress, this would allow our region to compete on (he same footing as larger communities. With this proposal , bridges and roads would be rebuilt, encouraging the flow of traffic and trade opportunities. No longer would infrastructure plans be placed on the shelf, to wait until monies are available. Small cities. village and townships would be able to offer a better quality of living to their residents. · Schools and small business would gain access to broadband Internet, allowing fo( education to spread. beyond the f(lur walls of a classroom and giving small busmess access to an unmeasured number of c1,1stomers and a larger profit margin. Allowing hospitals to convert all current medical records .to an electronic form would. not only save live~ . but offer better a"ess to those records by all healthcare providers. The plan will also make cost-effective energy available to all, with the creation of jobs building solar panels, wind turbines and providing power plants with clean coal technology. Once again in our region, we have a chance to compete <in the same level as many larger cities. ,Of course, all of this is not without ·a cost to the American people, an amount that many cannot begin to the even .fathom. By securing these greatly neededfunds for this rescue of our nation. we know that in the future ,. ultimatelr ·w.e will have to pick up the tab by paying an increase m taxes and fees. . .. However, the continued loss of jobs, homes and security that we all share and desire is too great to oontinue to bury our heads in the sand. This is why our leaders, both locally and nationally, are challenged to put aside partisanship and work together to save our nation that we all have worked so diligently to build. Vast areas of the Pacific Ocean will be' protected as national monuments, thanks to an lith-hour Cokle proclamation by President and Bush. Score one more for Steven · Laura Bush .

Sunday, January tt, 2009 Rainforest wood at issue in beach town r~pairs WILDWOOD, N.J. (AP) - New Jersey's most popular ·beach town is about to make a decision that has been criticized by environmentalists around the world ·- using wood cut from Amazon rainforests to repair a section of its boardwalk. Wildwood, voted the state's best beach last .summer br, vacationers and others, w11l become just the. latest of several New Jersey communities that have opted to use highly durable wood from the Brazilian ipe (pronounced "EE''-pay") tree to build or fix boardwalks. The wood looks good, lasts for decades, is strong •. ·and can withstand moisture and the corrosive effects of salt better than other species of wood, making it popular for use in boardwalks. Environmental groups . contend the world's tropical rainforests are being wiped .out by logging to satisfy demand for this kind of ·wood. Mayor Ernest Troiano Jr. said Wildwood reluctantly .turned to ipe wood only because a shipment of domestically grown black locust wood arrived in unusable condition. . "I'm not advocating tear. ing down the Brazilian rain·forests ," he said. "We wanted to use black locust, to do the right thing and the environmentally responsible . ·.thing. But the wood we ordered is nonhe wood that was delivered." Unless a last-minute alternative can be found, Wildwood will start using ipe wood within the· next few weeks to replace aging planks in front of the skee-ball arcades,I,?Ody-piercil'lg stands and fortune teller booths that Jine its boardwalk. "We have the boardwalk torn open and it needs to be fixed and ready to go by Easter," Troiano said. "If we don't get that hole closed up, it will be a nightmare for our merchants." The move comes a year after Ocean City, a fellow Cape May: County beach town, was criticized by environmentalists for using Brazilian ipe to replace part of its boardwalk. Thousands of protest e-mails from as far away as Australia, the Philippines, South Africa and New Zealand flooded the mayor's computer. · Ipe is a flowering tree that can grow to I 00 feet, towering above the forest canopy. It is Brazil's largest timber export , with half of it sold to customers in the United Slates. Ipe wood has been used in boardwalk projects from coast to coast, including Atlantic City, NJ .; New York; Baltimore; Chicago; Miami Beach, and Long Beach and Santa Monica, Calif. Environmentalists have been trying for years to promote 'the ·use of abundant, domestically grown species like black locust as an alternative to rainforest wood. And Wildwood agreed to use black locust for its boardwalk project ""- a decision that was hailed by Tim Keating, executive director of Rainforest Relief. a New Yo.rk volunteer group that opposes the use of rainforest wood. · However,· a' shipment of black locust from · a New York supplier arrived in poor condition with pieces of bark, large knots and cracks. J NORFOLK, Va. - It's the perfect gift for an old Navy flier: I ,092 feet of flattop. "What do you give a guy who has been blessed and has just about everything he has ever needed?" asked President George W. Bush from aboard the Navy's newest ship. "Well. an aircraft carrier." The USS George H.W. Bush, a steel-gray vessel longer than three football fields and built at a cost of $62 billion, was commissioned· Saturday · with its namesake, the · 41 st president. and other members of the Bush family on hand for the ceremonies at Naval Station Norfolk . Adorned for the day with red, white and blue bunting, the USS George H.W. Bush is one of the Nimitz class of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, the largest warships in the world . . "The ship that bears our dad's name is more than 95,000 tons of aluminum and steel," Bush said from a podium tucked under the flight deck.. "She will carry nearly 6,000 of the finest sailors and Marines in the world. She represents the craftsmanship of many skilled builders, and thousands of hours of preparation." Bush, who took his last scheduled !light aboard Air Force One to get to Norfolk. · added: "Laura and I are thrilled to be here to help commission an awesome ship and to honor ·an awesome man ."

Bush. 84,joined the Navy on June 12, 1942 , his 18th birthday and six months after the Jap.anese attack on Pearl Harbor. During the war he flew torpedo bombers off the USS San Jacinto . He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and three· Air Medals for his service. On a mission over the · Pacific in September 1944. Bush·s plane crashed into the ocean after being hit by Japanese anticaircraft fire. The future president parachuted into the sea and was rescued by a Navy submarine. He returned to combat and served until the end of the war. The Nimitz class of nuclear-powered aircraft carrier was first launched in 1972. The USS George H.W. Bush is the lOth and tina! ·vessel of its type. A bronze statue on its hangar bay deck depicts the former president as a youthful, smiling pilot in · his flight suit.

"We have a meet Saturllay a1 Capital and they have a tremendous facility, the competition will be tremendous. It will be very. very good competition. · "We hope thai our people did some training a1 home (over winter break). because if not, we'll be running fast and geiting last. We-don't . want that." ·"It's (the season) upon us, it's what we've been waiting for. number-wise. we're close to 50 athletes with our men and women. so our numbers are · up and they have been working hard and if they continued over break. we should be fine." Rio had a solid cross country season on the men's side and those runners are all competing during lhe track . season, S!J fi'Qm a COII!peti· tive standpoint, they should have the mental angles aueady conquered. "They had thai competi· .

"The cross country people have the advantage of competing, so mentally they don't get stale, but in the way of workouts our track and field athletes have been put in the work ; but they haven't got to 'show off' so to speak with the races that the distance people do because of cross." Willey believes his teams are more evenly distributed this year as far as talent across the board as opposed to just distanee, just sprint· ing being a strength of the squad. "We're prqbably a well versed team ' Ibis year as opposed to what we've had in the past. and I think that goes back to our numbers," Willey said. "To just say thai we're stronger in one area, I don't think so, which is a positive." With no indoor American Mideasf · Conference meet during lhe indoor and the outdoor conference meet not until mid-April in New York. Willey talked about the timeline for when he would like to see to see his teams be at their peak performance. "You can .probably peak three times throughout the 12 month period and usually what. we try to do here, we try to do a two-peak cycle," he. said. "One for the dis· tance people in cross COljll· one comes into our and program we tell them, we sprinters, jumpers throwers our ccocentralion is to peak towards the latter pan of the (outdoor) season. Our outdoor conference meet is the third week in April, we don't peak for that, believe it or not. there is only one school in the conference that does that. "The rest ofthe school's in the. conference, their phi los· opby is much like mine, we'd like to see you peak for the National' Championships and if not. right in that area. to give you a chance to make il the National Championships . That's what .we try to d<:>. we try to peak our people for some. time in May.'~ . Willey has assembled an outstanding staff of assistant coaches, Burt Wood and graduate assistant . Gastin Green, a. former thrower for Rio Grande, work with the throwers and fellow GA Man Boyles handles the dis.· tance runners, which allows time for Willey to work with tbe jumpers, sprinters and hurdlers. "With the four of us, it's just so much better for our athletes. we're all very excited and very enthusiastic and we can't wait to get started." Willey also ran down what the goals for his teams this season. "Our philosophy has always been, we want peo· pie to qualify for nationals, we want to try to have as many All-Americans as possible." be said. "Whenever want you to be an AUAmerican, so that's the ultimate goal. :'Conference wise, we have a very, very tough~ ference and 5o we come iD there with the idea of ll')'iJII to score as many poiDis. liS we possibly can to beat liS many teams as we can. This year we'll be in New York al Roberts Wesleyan and tbey have an outstanding facility, we have been tbete before and we lucked out weatherwise. but New York in April you don't know what you're going to be running 0)." Willey aJS()' stressed that he wants his teams to have fun. "Its hard work, people don't understand how much time and effort is put in, obviously our number one goal is students fust. athletes second, and social life is thirdt Willey said. "We want to give our athletes the opportunity to perform as well as they possibly can and with our schedule I think that's works out." Speaking of the schedule, Willey bas put together a nice blend of competition that will test his squads tremendously and also wiD . provide with opportunities to perform well. · "We'll be ~oing to some (NCAA) DiviSion I schools and then also some smaller . schools and they'll able to mix it. up with thei,r c:ompetition."

''It's always one of those things, like a little kid at Christmas. you can't wait 10 see what's going to be under the tree," ~ said. "We have a meet Saturllay a1 Capital and they have a tremendous facility, the competition will be tremendous. It will be very. very good competition. · "We hope thai our people did some training a1 home (over winter break). because if not, we'll be running fast and geiting last. We-don't . want that." ·"It's (the season) upon us, it's what we've been waiting for. number-wise. we're close to 50 athletes with our men and women. so our numbers are · up and they have been working hard and if they continued over break. we should be fine." Rio had a solid cross country season on the men's side and those runners are all competing during lhe track . season, S!J fi'Qm a COII!peti· tive standpoint, they should have the mental angles aueady conquered. "They had thai competi· .

"The cross country people have the advantage of competing, so mentally they don't get stale, but in the way of workouts our track and field athletes have been put in the work ; but they haven't got to 'show off' so to speak with the races that the distance people do because of cross." Willey believes his teams are more evenly distributed this year as far as talent across the board as opposed to just distanee, just sprint· ing being a strength of the squad. "We're prqbably a well versed team ' Ibis year as opposed to what we've had in the past. and I think that goes back to our numbers," Willey said. "To just say thai we're stronger in one area, I don't think so, which is a positive." With no indoor American Mideasf · Conference meet during lhe indoor and the outdoor conference meet not until mid-April in New York. Willey talked about the timeline for when he would like to see to see his teams be at their peak performance. "You can .probably peak three times throughout the 12 month period and usually what. we try to do here, we try to do a two-peak cycle," he. said. "One for the dis· tance people in cross COljll· one comes into our and program we tell them, we sprinters, jumpers throwers our ccocentralion is to peak towards the latter pan of the (outdoor) season. Our outdoor conference meet is the third week in April, we don't peak for that, believe it or not. there is only one school in the conference that does that. "The rest ofthe school's in the. conference, their phi los· opby is much like mine, we'd like to see you peak for the National' Championships and if not. right in that area. to give you a chance to make il the National Championships . That's what .we try to d<:>. we try to peak our people for some. time in May.'~ . Willey has assembled an outstanding staff of assistant coaches, Burt Wood and graduate assistant . Gastin Green, a. former thrower for Rio Grande, work with the throwers and fellow GA Man Boyles handles the dis.· tance runners, which allows time for Willey to work with tbe jumpers, sprinters and hurdlers. "With the four of us, it's just so much better for our athletes. we're all very excited and very enthusiastic and we can't wait to get started." Willey also ran down what the goals for his teams this season. "Our philosophy has always been, we want peo· pie to qualify for nationals, we want to try to have as many All-Americans as possible." be said. "Whenever want you to be an AUAmerican, so that's the ultimate goal. :'Conference wise, we have a very, very tough~ ference and 5o we come iD there with the idea of ll')'iJII to score as many poiDis. liS we possibly can to beat liS many teams as we can. This year we'll be in New York al Roberts Wesleyan and tbey have an outstanding facility, we have been tbete before and we lucked out weatherwise. but New York in April you don't know what you're going to be running 0)." Willey aJS()' stressed that he wants his teams to have fun. "Its hard work, people don't understand how much time and effort is put in, obviously our number one goal is students fust. athletes second, and social life is thirdt Willey said. "We want to give our athletes the opportunity to perform as well as they possibly can and with our schedule I think that's works out." Speaking of the schedule, Willey bas put together a nice blend of competition that will test his squads tremendously and also wiD . provide with opportunities to perform well. · "We'll be ~oing to some (NCAA) DiviSion I schools and then also some smaller . schools and they'll able to mix it. up with thei,r c:ompetition."

The students create their own virtual shoe busmesses. and then the successes and failures of the b~~i!!fsses are measured in severai ways each week. . .

"Each week C?'!stitutes a•year i~ the business."

Each week. the students are asked to make between 60 and 75 business decisions, Ul)d then they are able to watch how thetr dectstons affect tJ_tetr companies. They are also able to see how thetr compumes compare to the others run by the ~tude.nts around the world. While the students usually work m patrs. the student Rupe was working with opted out of the . class. so Rupe had to make all of the decisions himself. . "I W!IS kind of overwhelmed at the beginning. The learns mg curve is .pretty steep," Rupe 'said. After a few weeks. thoug_h, he. and the other students ~ained a better understanding ot how to manage their busmesses and the contest ran much more smoothly. ' Watson also worked with all of the students in the class, and Rupe satd he was very helpful. '"It wasn't until about the seventh week when things started coming together." Rupe said . Around that time. his scores began skyrocketing in the competition. . ~ore than 3,000 different teams took part in the compellllon~ and the students represented 256 colleges and universtlles around the world. . . For three weeks , Rupe was ranked in the top 100 scores m at least one of the four main categories. ln the c~tegory for return on equity, Rupe was ranked II th out olthe more than 3.000 teams one week, and another week he ranked 19th. ln the price per share category, he ranked 40th orie week. " It was something that kind . of surprised me more than anythmg ," he said about the high rankings: Rupe said he had some luck in his virtual business, but added that his previous experience in the U.S . Army also helped him. "I think my experience in the Anny taught me that the first thmg to do is .to try to be efficient ,'~ he said. He attempted to have his business be as efficient as possible and have it produce as much as possible. While Rupe finished with a very high score comp~d to ,tbe ?ther students across the world.. the ~econd-highest tankmg !earn from Rto Gran~e fimshed JUSt one point behmd htm. The whole class dtd well in the competition, and everyone learned a great deal from it. The competition teaches the students about how all of the different aspects, of a business are tied together. and allows them to see how their decisions affect their companies. Rupe said. He added that he enjoyed the class, and is very happy he continued his education at Rio Grande . "I think Rio Grande is a fine teaching institution," Rupe said. "I've never been at a big college, but I couldn't imagine that being in a 500-student lecture could be all that fun . Dr. John. Hill. Wesley Thoene and all of the professors that I had whtle I was there . they were great as far as helping the class environment." : Rupe added that during his time in the military. he moved around a great deal and took classes at seven dtfferent.col.leges and universities.

W.Va. - The Delta Queen. thought of by many to be a national and local treasure, could possibly cement its historic value. The historic riverboat has been nominated to become one of America's II Most Endangered Historic Places. Landing on the exclusive annual list could save the steamboat from likely decay. The 82-year-old sternwheeler is scheduled to shut down because Congress has refused to grant another exemption from. a federal law that bans more than 50 overnight passengers on boats that are largely made of wood . The exemption expired Oct. 31. Owners say the boat, which can carry 176 overnight passengers, can't survive financially if it can only carry 50 passengers. So Don Clare, a member of the Boone County (Ohio) Historic Preservation Review Board . . nominated the Delta Queen tor inclusion on the list compiled by the National Trust for Historic Preservation . The list raises awareness of preservation efforts. Sites must meet three criteria - historical significance, urgently threatened and possible solutions - in order to qualify for the list. In a news release. Clare noted the boat's place in history and. its current predicament in his nomination. However, one nomination doesn't ensure that the boat will land in the top II . and Delta Queen supporters must second the nomination .

After a few weeks. thoug_h, he. and the other students ~ained a better understanding ot how to manage their busmesses and the contest ran much more smoothly. ' Watson also worked with all of the students in the class, and Rupe satd he was very helpful. '"It wasn't until about the seventh week when things started coming together." Rupe said . Around that time. his scores began skyrocketing in the competition. . ~ore than 3,000 different teams took part in the compellllon~ and the students represented 256 colleges and universtlles around the world. . .

The historic riverboat has been nominated to become one of America's II Most Endangered Historic Places. Landing on the exclusive annual list could save the steamboat from likely decay. The 82-year-old sternwheeler is scheduled to shut down because Congress has refused to grant another exemption from. a federal law that bans more than 50 overnight passengers on boats that are largely made of wood . The exemption expired Oct. 31. Owners say the boat, which can carry 176 overnight passengers, can't survive financially if it can only carry 50 passengers. So Don Clare, a member of the Boone County (Ohio) Historic Preservation Review Board . . nominated the Delta Queen tor inclusion on the list compiled by the National Trust for Historic Preservation . The list raises awareness of preservation efforts. Sites must meet three criteria - historical significance, urgently threatened and possible solutions - in order to qualify for the list.

However, one nomination doesn't ensure that the boat will land in the top II . and Delta Queen supporters must second the nomination .

DELILLE '\ ANNIVERSARY LIFES1YLES Bush's .....,;;;___ _, PageCs • �/ • ENTERTAINMENT PageC6 ~y, January u, 2009 ' • '24's' BY MATT HURWITZ WASHINGTON - Early one cold November morning, actress Annie Wersching leads Kiefer Sutherland to an "armored" SUV with dark windows parked outside the U .S. Department of Agriculture · building. After director Brad Turner yells "Cut," onlookers snap photos of the star. Sutherland spots a participant in a charity ' run for Lupus on the Washington Mall and comments, "Why is that guy wearing shorts? It's cold." · Where Sutherland riormally works, people wear shorts year round. Welcome to Washington, Jack Bauer. A little over a year ago, Sutherland and the crew of his popular Fox TV series, "24," came to the nation's capital to film segments of the show's seventh season. The completion of that season was delayed a year by the Writers Guild strike, but it finally makes. its debut in a two-night premiere beginning Sunday, Jan. II (8 p.m. EST). Jack Bauer actually returned to the screen this past November in the Fox TV movie "24: Redemption," a series pre. que! that was set in Africa. Now, the series' new season begins with the intrepid agent for the fictional federa! Counter-Terrorist Unit (CTU) forced to return to Washington to face a S~nate investigation into his conduct.

He's all about embracing happy accidents.lf you took a p1ece of art down temporarily to put up holiday decoratio~;~s, consider keeping it in the room where it was stowed. Flynn suggests mixing . art of vary in~ sizes and shapes, painng pieces you've never displayed together before. Th1s also works well lltith furniture: Rethink which pieces belong together, he says, and use your imagination. Older i terns may look gorgeous paired with brand new pieces, and traditional things may look surprisingly good m1xed with modem . When tryin~ out pairings, he says, thmk about contrasting scale and shape' Flynn recently combined the curving, fluid lines of a wooden desk with a sharply angular· steel chair and a client loved the result. THINK BIG Don't just move small things. All three designers suggest trying new locations for the major pieces that anchor a room. "The sofa is easily the biggest piece of furniture in the room," says Mathison. "Try it · opposite where it was . .. . That totally redistributes your furniture plan for the room." · By changing a room 's focal ·point, Carendi says, you can also give the space a new purpose. If your family room has always been focused around the television, consider changing the layout to fuel conversation. "If the ' couch was facing one wall, and now it's facing the adjoining kitchen, all of a sudden there's more conversation while somebody's cooking," she says. If most of your furniture is lining the walls , try mov-. ing some pieces further out into the room . And don't forget to look out side, says Flynn. Outdoor tables or chairs that you pressed into service during the holidays might be worth keeping inside. At his own home, Flynn uses two high-backed wrought-iron patio chairs - originally brought inside as extra holiday seating at the ends of his dining table . He has paired them with four low-slung, .'60sera chairs made of fiber' glass and vinyl. Of course, he says , "if it's something that' s from Wai-Mart , like those stackable chairs, it won' t work. But if it's made of iron or faux bamboo, you can ask, will they play with your existing set?" . IN WITH THE NEW? . Once you're done purging and reconfiguring, decide whether you want to go shopping for just one or two new pieces. "The deals that are out there right now are incredible," Carendi says . "I haven't seen sales like this ever." B'ut if buying new throw pillows will keep you from moving the sofa around, Carendi says, it might actually be .better to skip the purchase. The changes you make with your existing furniture might be much more inspired than . what you'd do with new things. "This economy limits your purchasing," she says, "but 1t can also make you mo,e creative." �/ • ENTERTAINMENT PageC6 ~y, January u, 2009 ' • '24's' BY MATT HURWITZ WASHINGTON - Early one cold November morning, actress Annie Wersching leads Kiefer Sutherland to an "armored" SUV with dark windows parked outside the U .S. Department of Agriculture · building. After director Brad Turner yells "Cut," onlookers snap photos of the star. Sutherland spots a participant in a charity ' run for Lupus on the Washington Mall and comments, "Why is that guy wearing shorts? It's cold." · Where Sutherland riormally works, people wear shorts year round. Welcome to Washington, Jack Bauer. A little over a year ago, Sutherland and the crew of his popular Fox TV series, "24," came to the nation's capital to film segments of the show's seventh season. The completion of that season was delayed a year by the Writers Guild strike, but it finally makes. its debut in a two-night premiere beginning Sunday, Jan. II (8 p.m. EST). Jack Bauer actually returned to the screen this past November in the Fox TV movie "24: Redemption," a series pre. que! that was set in Africa. Now, the series' new season begins with the intrepid agent for the fictional federa! Counter-Terrorist Unit (CTU) forced to return to Washington to face a S~nate investigation into his conduct.

"The sofa is easily the biggest piece of furniture in the room," says Mathison. "Try it · opposite where it was . .. . That totally redistributes your furniture plan for the room." · By changing a room 's focal ·point, Carendi says, you can also give the space a new purpose. If your family room has always been focused around the television, consider changing the layout to fuel conversation. "If the ' couch was facing one wall, and now it's facing the adjoining kitchen, all of a sudden there's more conversation while somebody's cooking," she says. If most of your furniture is lining the walls , try mov-. ing some pieces further out into the room . And don't forget to look out side, says Flynn. Outdoor tables or chairs that you pressed into service during the holidays might be worth keeping inside. At his own home, Flynn uses two high-backed wrought-iron patio chairs - originally brought inside as extra holiday seating at the ends of his dining table . He has paired them with four low-slung, .'60sera chairs made of fiber' glass and vinyl. Of course, he says , "if it's something that' s from Wai-Mart , like those stackable chairs, it won' t work.

Cheney is leaving the White House after a ~ovem ­ ment career spanning four decades, including stints as defense secretary, President Gerald R. Ford's chief of staff and a longtime con- · gressnlan from Wyoming. · In a broadcast interview earlier this week, the vice president dismissed as "urban legend" the notion that he played his role as second-in-command like a wizard. controlling the ·levers of the Bush presidency from behind the scenes. · Still.

Back.yard gardeners are using digital photography for everything from landscape design to identifying plants. . · For example, "If you run across an area of msect infestation, you can take a picture of it and e-mail it to somebody - a county agent or entomologist." said Alan Detrick., author of "Macro Photography for Gardeners and Nature Lovers" (Timber Press, 2008). "Instead of shipping an actual sample'and hoping that the animal or infestation is alive when it gets · there. you can get somebody to look. at the image and diagnose the problem in real time." And you don't have to pony up a big wad of cash to get staned. The price of a good point-andshoot camera (compact. fixed lens) begins around $150. A top quality digital single-lens reflex camera (larger body, interchangeable lenses) runs about $500.

She delivered the same newspaper route, from Mill · to the end of North Third Street, practically from the time she staned and has many . of those first customers .

For a long time she said she had 150 or ·more customers but noted that the number is now down. When she first started delivering papers it was a walking route. but then as time. passed and the route expanded she made it a driving route. Teeter was always like the mailman . "neither rain nor snow nor sleet nor hail" kept her from delivering to her newspaper' customers. For .a number of years Teeter has had a helper on her delivery route. For the past three years it has been Roland Holley. who has now taken over the route. Teeter .has lived on South Third Street since 1971 and has no intention of changing her address.

Gardeners learn quickly that ·a fascinating world performs freely at their feet - a miniature world of dewdrops clinging to flower p)!t~ls; ornate . one-of-a-kind snowflakes building into drifts; or the pollen-coated legs of honeybees foraging among the flowers . . · What can make, these images even more appealing is using a macro lens on a camera to document and share them. " Macro photography is the visual portal to a world most people walk by without a glance," says Alan Detrick in his book, "Macro Photography for Gardeners and Nature Lovers" (Timber Press, 2008). "Plants, animals and parts of plants and animals never before imagined enter the camera's' viewfinder" ~ and all in the backyard. or perhaps a neighborhood park. Most point-and-shoot cameras have the macro mode built in. "That allows you to focus on a subject as close as onehalf to 1 inch in front of the camera lens," says Ian Adams, who wrote "The Art of Garden Photography" (Timber Press, 2005) . . . "I strongly recommend a macro lens for plant portraiture." That generally means stepping up to a digital single lens reflex camera (0-SLR), which is designed for interchangeable lenses, including the general purpose macro series. · "Get the longest (inacro lens) you can afford because · they generally give you better results," Adams says. The shorter lenses are a good choice if you're looking for a pollinator's-eye view of particular blooms or want to belly up to some low-lying Alpine plants. But they require working at close range - often too close when trying to incorporate skittish insects or birds among the flowers . " If you're photographing a timber rattler and don't want to get bitten, it's goo<! to be 3 or 4 feet away," Adams says. "If you're photographi'!g l'lutterflies, which startle easily, it's nice to be able to step . back and still have that macro capability." A tripod is probably the most important accessory for garden photographers to carry, Adams says. " It stabilizes the camera for sharper pictures. It gives you more flexibility for slow shutter speeds and large f-stops for deeper depth of field. You can look more deeply at the composiHon itself.
