Reclaimin~ mine land, implementmg conservation practices and restoring riparian buffers would lead to major improvements in the Leading Creek watershed, according to a finill report on local water quality by· Ohio . Environmental Protection Agency (EPA.) The Ohio EPA worked with the Meigs County Soil and Water Conservation District, specifically Raina Fulks, and accepted public comments about the draft report last summer. The emphasis was on coming up with strategies to help the watershed meet its designated use under Ohio's Wl\ter quality standards. The Leading Creek watershed is comprised of approximately 150 •square miles of drainage area. The headwaters watershed 's begin in Athens County with most of the watershed in Mei~s County and a small portion ill Gallia County. · The report detailing Ohio EPA's proposal to improve water quality in the Leading Creek watershed was approved by U.S. EPA. The report includes the results of a comprehensive study of the chemical, biological and habitat conditions along the river and its tributaries. The _majority of_ sampling areas m the Leadmg Creek watershed are polluted as the result of human activity. Many small streams are impaired because of acid mine drainage and unrestricted livestock access to the waterways. Water quality standards are based on designated uses, which reflect the de~ree to which people potentially will use the water. Ohio is required by the federal Clean Water Act to identify waters that do not meet water quality standards and to develop methods to bring the affected waters into compliance. This is known · as the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) program, which general!y determines the maximum amount of pollutants a water body can receive on a daily basis without violating water quality -standards. The TMDL program can improve the quali- ty of a stream by taking a comprehensive look at all pollution sources. This mcludes point sources such as wastewater treatment · plants and industrial facilities, as well as nonpoint sources, including runoff from urban and agricultural areas. While more than 70 percent of the watershed is forested, the area is heavily mined. In 199J, an emer~ency discharge of contammated water from the Meigs #31 Mine destroyed habitat and caused a large fish kill in Parker Run and downstream into segments of Leading Creek. The mine continues to discharge large quantities of water that contllin some high concentra· . lions of certain pollutants. The report proposes several strategies to help the ·watershed meet its desig.nated use under .Ohio's water quality standards. Included are: • limiting dissolved solids at the Meigs #31 Mine discharge, especially during low stream flows; . · • biweekly sampling for chlorides in the water discharged from the Meigs #31 mine; • agricultural conservation practices for abating sediment, including cattle e1lclusion from streams, grazing land protection and conservation tillage ; • restoration of riparian buffers; and • abandoned mine land/barren land/gob pile · reclamation. �• .• .

My firJt child, who is 4 nmv, was very ill as an infallt with RSV and had to be hospitalized. Will I have to go through the sa'me thing with this next baby? Can I do anything to prevellt RSV? Is there a vaccilte to prevent it? · Answer: RSV stancjs for infection caused by the ,Respiratory Syncytial Virus. RSY is the primary cause of pneumonia and bronchiolitis in infanis under one year of age. Over 125,000 babies and children are hospitalized annu~lly with this viral infection. It is estimated, however, th.at this is just the tip of the iceberg and represents only about two percent of the children who actually get RSV Though very common in infants and children, RSV is. fortunately. usually relatively mild in nature. This . viral infection is spread from person · to person through direct contact with respiratory secretions or from RSV contaminated surfaces and objects . .RSV usually occurs in the winter and. spreads rapjdly among children. By age 2, most children will show evidence of past' RSV infections when given the appropriate blood ·test There are several risk factors for infants getting an RSV infection. Prematurity, low b1rth weight, congenital heart disease, chronic lung conditions, secondhand cigarette smoke exposure, older brothers and sisters in the home. day care and bottle feeding all increase the likelihood of a child developing a seri.ous RSV infection. RSV usually starts off like a typical cold: Fever, runny nose, cough and irritability . may sometimes be followed by wheezing. In some cases the child may experience difficulty in breathing. Most children with RSV infections are better in about a . week with supportive care such as acetaminophen for New Horizons Childhood Enrichment Center Mulberry Community Center Mulberry Ave. • Pomeroy, OH fever and fluids . Many doctors' offices can perform a rapid RSV test, which can confirm the diagnosis and aid in the treatment of the RSV The test is done by taking a swab of the child's nasal secretions. As of yet there is no longterm vaccine to prevent this common, viral infection in all children. · . There are some short -acting vaccines that can be !liven to at-risk infants durmg outbreaks of RSV, but these shots need to be given monthly and are not recommended for all children. : Other preventive efforts such as routine hand washing are alway~ good, but RSV can be spread for several days before a child has any symptoms and for a couple ot weeks after the child has recovered. This makes it .,Iifficult to control this inh:ction in the community setting. · So, Will you have to experience an RSV infection with your soon-to' be-born child'' Though my crystal ,ball is a little hazy, I'd say that the odds are that your second child wi·ll come down with RSV at some point However, it is somewhat unlikely that he or she will experience the severe form that require(! hospital, ization of your first child.

Many doctors' offices can perform a rapid RSV test, which can confirm the diagnosis and aid in the treatment of the RSV The test is done by taking a swab of the child's nasal secretions. As of yet there is no longterm vaccine to prevent this common, viral infection in all children. · . There are some short -acting vaccines that can be !liven to at-risk infants durmg outbreaks of RSV, but these shots need to be given monthly and are not recommended for all children. : Other preventive efforts such as routine hand washing are alway~ good, but RSV can be spread for several days before a child has any symptoms and for a couple ot weeks after the child has recovered. This makes it .,Iifficult to control this inh:ction in the community setting. · So, Will you have to experience an RSV infection with your soon-to' be-born child'' Though my crystal ,ball is a little hazy, I'd say that the odds are that your second child wi·ll come down with RSV at some point However, it is somewhat unlikely that he or she will experience the severe form that require(! hospital, ization of your first child.

And this time its bigger than just Bill. Take a look· at the. exit polls coming out of the primaries thus far. Men are going for Barack Obama over Hillary Clinton. In California, men went for Obama, 51 percent to Clinton's 39 percent, according to the Sah Jose Mercury News. In South Carolina. 55 percent of men voted for Obama, with only 23 going for Clinton. (Edwards took · the bulk of the rest.) This is not about sexism. But try telling that to feminists Gloria Steinem and Erica Jong, . who both recently wrote whiny opeds about the urgency of voting for girl po.wer now. I suspect the folks going for Obama are casting their votes for the undefined, middle-of- the- spectrum candidate. Although, according to National Journal, he is the most liberal senator in · the U.S. Senate, he doesn't come off that way on the campaign trail: Obama sounds and looks conservative enough that ~ven conservative pundits have had good things to say about him - a fact that promises to be a detriment to those conservatives if he becomes the Democratic nominee. ~ednesday,Februaryt3,2008 COLUMBUS (AP) - A new organization formed at the request of Gov. Ted Strickland will lobby voters to support the governor's $1.7 billion bond plan to create jol:ls in Ohio. The Building Ohio Jobs political action committee will raise money and advocate for the passage of the plan on November's ballot. The committee was formed • - along with a separate organization that will educate voters about Ohio's economy even after the election - by Columbus elect.ions attorney Don McTigue at the request of the Democratic governor. Neither group has started to raise money yet. Strickland announced his bond initiative during last week's State of the State address. He says the borrowing will pay off in the end by creating 80,000 new jobs in areas such as advanced energy and transportation· infrastructure. Republican leaders were cool to the plan because it \.l'ould increase the state's debt. The Legislature must approve the proposed constitutional amendment by a, super-majority of three-fifths for it to get to the ballot, or Strickland can gather enough signatures to place the issue directly on the ballot.

And this time its bigger than just Bill. Take a look· at the. exit polls coming out of the primaries thus far. Men are going for Barack Obama over Hillary Clinton. In California, men went for Obama, 51 percent to Clinton's 39 percent, according to the Sah Jose Mercury News. In South Carolina. 55 percent of men voted for Obama, with only 23 going for Clinton. (Edwards took · the bulk of the rest.) This is not about sexism. But try telling that to feminists Gloria Steinem and Erica Jong, . who both recently wrote whiny opeds about the urgency of voting for girl po.wer now. I suspect the folks going for Obama are casting their votes for the undefined, middle-of- the- spectrum candidate. Although, according to National Journal, he is the most liberal senator in · the U.S. Senate, he doesn't come off that way on the campaign trail: Obama sounds and looks conservative enough that ~ven conservative pundits have had good things to say about him - a fact that promises to be a detriment to those conservatives if he becomes the Democratic nominee. ~ednesday,Februaryt3,2008 COLUMBUS (AP) - A new organization formed at the request of Gov. Ted Strickland will lobby voters to support the governor's $1.7 billion bond plan to create jol:ls in Ohio. The Building Ohio Jobs political action committee will raise money and advocate for the passage of the plan on November's ballot. The committee was formed • - along with a separate organization that will educate voters about Ohio's economy even after the election - by Columbus elect.ions attorney Don McTigue at the request of the Democratic governor. Neither group has started to raise money yet. Strickland announced his bond initiative during last week's State of the State address. He says the borrowing will pay off in the end by creating 80,000 new jobs in areas such as advanced energy and transportation· infrastructure. Republican leaders were cool to the plan because it \.l'ould increase the state's debt. The Legislature must approve the proposed constitutional amendment by a, super-majority of three-fifths for it to get to the ballot, or Strickland can gather enough signatures to place the issue directly on the ballot.

J111~Y to decide strangulation or accident in ex-officer's trial BY JOE MILICIA ASSOCIATED PRE SS WRITER . CANTON - A former police officer placed his pregnant lover's body in a field and left his 2-year-old son home alone, but those · heinous acts don't prove he intended to kill her, a defense attorney said Tuesday. The jury began deliberating Tuesday afternoon in the murder trial of Bobby Cults Jr., who a day earlier said he accidentally killed Jessie Davis with an elbow to her neck as h'e was trying to leave her house. After Cutts dumped her body, he denied knowledge of her whereabouts for a .week as thousands searched for her. "Does that cause you to feel that he's a liar and a cheat and he's going to lie about' everything else ?" defense attorney Fernando Mack said. "None .of that will tell you whether aggravated murder was committed on the morning of June 14th." Assistant prosec1.1tor Dennis Barr told the jury that Cults' story makes no sense. "You don't hide the body unless you're trying to cover up a criminal act, a purposeful killing, especially when you're a trained police officer sworn to serve and protect," Barr said. Cutts killed Davis and her fetus to get out of child support payments for a fourth child. Barr said.

Cutts could receive the death penalty if convicted of killing Jessie Marie Davis, who was nine months' pregnant with his child. J111~Y to decide strangulation or accident in ex-officer's trial BY JOE MILICIA ASSOCIATED PRE SS WRITER . CANTON - A former police officer placed his pregnant lover's body in a field and left his 2-year-old son home alone, but those · heinous acts don't prove he intended to kill her, a defense attorney said Tuesday. The jury began deliberating Tuesday afternoon in the murder trial of Bobby Cults Jr., who a day earlier said he accidentally killed Jessie Davis with an elbow to her neck as h'e was trying to leave her house. After Cutts dumped her body, he denied knowledge of her whereabouts for a .week as thousands searched for her. "Does that cause you to feel that he's a liar and a cheat and he's going to lie about' everything else ?" defense attorney Fernando Mack said. "None .of that will tell you whether aggravated murder was committed on the morning of June 14th." Assistant prosec1.1tor Dennis Barr told the jury that Cults' story makes no sense. "You don't hide the body unless you're trying to cover up a criminal act, a purposeful killing, especially when you're a trained police officer sworn to serve and protect," Barr said. Cutts killed Davis and her fetus to get out of child support payments for a fourth child. Barr said.

They are getting them free with every · single vault tube they claim. The U.S. Government barely got started minting these new Presidential coins and by law were required to stop production forever. There will never be any more. So, who's to thank for this massive giveaway effort? Well, it's not the government. It's the World Reserve Monetary Exchange. And we'll even give you the direct Hotline to call so you·can be among the ·first to get yours free right now. People everywhere will be trying to get their hands on the last of these magnificent stacks of coins ·with the never-beforeseen edge markings. But only those who get in before the 3-day de11dline are being handed one of the remaining brand new never-circulated Presidential Dollar Coins free with every si!lgle '28 sealed vault tube. Officials at the' World Reserve are coping with the explosion of calls. So, don't give up calling if you don't get through the first · time. Keep trying. "It's a miracle we were able to set up special Hotline.s in three Regional Distribution Zones in an effort to maintain order across the country. We feared the floo9 of calls could bring us to our knees but we are now equipped to handle everyone who Is trying to get through to get our last coins," said Stephen Speakman, Director of Hotline Operations for the World Reserve Monetary Exchange. All this Is happening because the World Reeerve has revealed It .wlll release the laat of Ita ~ecretly located hoard of $13 million worth of nevercirculated Presidential Coins in vault sealed tubes to · prevent them from ever being introduced into commerce. It's the only way to maintain their value as nevercirculated coins. "This is what everyone wants hut so few, will actually have. So many will be left out in the cold or with ordinary circulated coins If they can even find them in their bank.change. That's why we are so widely advertising our plans to give away S!Jme of the last never-circulated Presidential Coins free," said Speakman. Those who do beat the order deadline will get one of the last Presidential Dollar Coins free so they can handle it, show it off and still keep the valuable vault tube sealed and perfectly intact. The U.S. Government ls required to mint each President with a si!lgle Presidential $1 Coin, with a different President appear- ing every ninety days. That's why everyone is still trying to get the last of these Presidential dollar coins now that minting . has been shut off. "To honor each President there will be forty sealed.va11lt tubes in all, each containing twelve never-circulated Presidenthli Coins. That's 480 coins. But with the forty free coins everybody is getting, it becomes a spectacular collection of 520 nevercirculated coins in all, loaded into two separate heavy vault boxes. Only those lucky enough to get in on this now will be among the first to be automatically taken care of with all of the new Presidential Dollars to ever be minted for the next ten years," explained Speakman. The Presidential Dollars may be hard to find because they have not really made their way into the National Banking System. Banks will not honor requesta for the free coins. And Banks will never liave these crystalclear sealed yault tubes of the -nevercirculated coins that show off the rare edge markings. Claims for these free coins which are in never-circulated condition are only being honored by the World Reserve for the next three days and only for those who beat the deadline for the sealed vault tubes. "Just look at that stack of coins. When Americans get their hands on those, they are really going to do a double take," Speakman said. • · OBITUARIES Page A5 . • Thomas Pasquale, 69 INSIDE • JACKPOT: These two massive vault boxes contain the sealed vault tubes for the complete collection of forty Presidential Dollars, 480 coins in a·ll. Values fluctuate, but just think if you had saved 2 vault boxes of uncirculated Eisenhower Dollars from 1973. Tliey would now be worth $6,912.00. It's a real steal at just '28 for these crystal clear sealed vault tubes that show of( the rare edge markings and protect the coin's never-circulated value ." ·• Literary members hear all about food chain.

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. ,_ After last week's heavy rainfall saturated much of the Ohio River Basin this week, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers used its system of dams to reduce the poten, tial for flood damage. During heavy rain events, corps projects hold. back water to minimize downstream flooding. Early predictions indicated the Ohio River would crest above flood stage at Ohio, and Marietta, Parkersburg, Point Pleasant and Huntington, W.Va. However, because of how the corps operated its pro. jects, the Ohio River at these cities crested below. flood stage. Cities along the Muskingum . River would have seen much higher water levels without the ' effective operations of corps dams. At New Philadelphia, the Muskingum River would have been three feet higher, while river levels at Coshocton and Zanesville would have been five feet and eight feet higher, respectively. Other Ohio River tributaries saw major reductions as well. River levels for the Little . Sandy RiYer, near Grayson, Ky., were reduced by over eight feet, Burnsville, W.Va., saw reductions of over three feet on the Little Kanawha River, and Circleville and Worthington, Ohio, saw reductions on the Scioto River of over three feet. Water levels are closely monitored at the dams during these flood events. Qver the years, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has built 539 miles of levees and more than I00 local flood projects to protect lives, communities and property from , flooding along the Ohio River. To date, these projects have reduced flood damages by over $10 billion. The corps became the federal agency leading flood and storm damage reduc1ion through the 1917 Flood Control Act. Many of the lake projects are better known .for recreation, hydropower and water supply capabilities and were authorized and built as the · ·result of the disaStrous floods of record in 1936 and 1937. Reservoirs are designed to ' hold a large cal'acity of water in order to hmit damage from flooding, but engineering solutions cannot completely prevent flooding . Heavy ramfall downstream from a reservoir runs· directly into the nearest river.

Reed/photoo COLUMBUS - For the sixth straight year, testing of Ohio's 'deer herd has found no evidence of chronic wasting disease (CWD). a degenerative brain disease that atfects elk, mule deer and white-tailed deer. According to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources . (ODNR) Division of Wildlife, state officials collected 941 samples last year from hunterharvested deer, primarily during the deer-gun season that ran Nov. 26-Dec. 2. All CWO testing is performed at the Animal Disease Diagnostic Laboratory of the Ohio Pepartment ·o r Agriculture (ODA). In addition to CWD, 97 percent ·of the hunter-harvested deer samples were also tested for bovine tuberculosis. Results found no evidence of this disease in Ohio deer. Additional CWO samples are being taken from roadkilled deer, but those test results are not yet available. Since 2002, the Division · of Wildlife, in conjunction with the ODA's Division of Animal Industry and the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, has been conduct: ing surveillance throughout the state for CWO, as well as epizootic hemorrhagic disease and bovine tuberculosis. While CWD has never been found in Ohio's deer herd, it had been diagnosed in wild and/or captive deer or elk in 14 other states and two ,Canadian provinces. Since CWO was discovered in the Western United States Please su Deer, A5 Beegle seeks second term as sheriff .
