The 1997 graduate of River Valley High School assumed new duties as Ohio State University Extension educator for agriculture and natural Richard Stephens resources in Galli a County on Jan. 22 and freely admits he's enthused about the job. "I'm very excited," Stephens said. "I grew up in the 4-H system and I had aspirations of being an Extension educator, so it 's pretty neat seein,\l that dream become a reahty." Stephens tills a position that had been vacant for almost a year, bringing the staff of the Gallia County Extension Service office back to full strength. He joins Becky Nesbill, the local Extension director and educator for family consumer sciences and community development, and Tracy Winters, 4,H educator. The son of Larry and Janet Stephens of Vinton, he received his bachelor's degree in agricultural education from OSU in 2001. For the next four years, he was agricultural education teacher at Alexander · High School, and prior to accepting the Extension position, he taught at Southern High School. He was also FFA advisor at Alexander and Southern. His interest in the tield came from working on the family fartn near Centerville, owned by his uncle, Charles Beman. He described his specialty areas as animal science and livestock, with some experience in tobacco. But he looks to serve all areas of the agricultural exr,:rience as ANR educator. 'It's interesting because your audience is more specialized," Stephens said. "This gives me a chance to tailor the programming for our clientele." Since starting the job, Stephens has plunged into its duties but finds the move from working with students to advising both children and adults has been smooth because of his familiarity with the area and the office's clients. "I've got a prelly solid network with producers in Ibis area, which to be hon, ~t. makes the transition a ' lot easier," he said. • MMillER@MYDAILYTRIBUNE.COM GALLIPOLIS lnfoCision Management Corp. will stay in Gallipolis, according to the Gallia County Community Improvement Corporation (CIC) , which announced Friday that a lease with the comp<my has been signed.

These boys are crying out for help BY KATHY MtTCHEU AND MARCY SUGAR Dear Annie: I run a Sunday school program for 22 children. There are two young ch ildren in our care, "Billy," age 4, and "Andy," age 2. Their mother died a year a~o. while ~iving birth to the1r baby s1ster. Their father recently remarried. These children were man · ageable before their mother's death, but now they are impossible. Billy sits in front and hits the teacher's leg. pulls her skirt and kicks her. When restrained, he turns his attention to the teacljing board and pulls down pictures. During craft t1me, he crumple s his papers on the floor and refuses to participate. Separated from hi s older brother, Andy cooperates and follow s instructions. However~ he is slowly stanmg to 1m1tate Billy. While we do not know the intimate details of the home front , how do we handle the kids' behavior during the two-hour Sunday school and turn it around to be constructive instead of disruptive to the whole class'? Teacher's Aide Dear Teacher's Aide: Our hearts are breaking for these two little boys. Their mother died, they have a baby sister who demands a great deal of attention, and their father has remarried. They feel neglected and abandoned twice over. Their unruly behavior is their way of acting out their frustrations and gaining time and attention from the adults in their lives. They are crying for help. First, please talk to the father and sugj:est professional counseling for the boys. The pediatrician can recommend someone who specializes in young chil· dren. Then help Andy and B1lly get more positive attention by giving them a little extra time, thinking of special projects to work on (perhaps in art or music), and praising their efforts.

They need to believe they are good boys, not pigeonholed as troublemakers. Dear Annie: My boyfriend and I, along with several members of his family, enjoy drinking wine with our meal s. We take great care to choose interesting wines to serve, and the bottle s can be quite expensive. The only problem is that some family members do not like wine , but will nonetheless serve themselves a glass so as not to feel left out. They will then proceed to dilute the wine with water or soda, or leave their glass full without drinking any. I don't mind sharing, but I hate wasting what can otherwi se be enjoyed. Would it be appropnate to serve a "house" wine for these family members?- S. In California Dear S.: Yes and no . You don't want to single out those guests who don't indulge, or not offer them the opportunity to sample an interesting wine . You can minimize the waste by bein~ a more gracious host. Don 1 put a bottle oot the table for guests to serve themselves. Bring out two bottles - the good stuff and the house wine - and as k each guest which the~ would rrefer. If they don t care, it s your choice what to pour. Dear Annie: This is for "Shoeless Joe," the man who was baffled by the number of shoes in his girl· friend's closet. I'd like to point out that not all women are hooked on shoes. I am 44, attractive, and well-educated . I have been married 10 years and have chosen not to have children. I don't care for shopping, I hate romantic comedies, and I would infinitely rather watch a football !lame than "Sex and the Ctty." I own fewer than 10 pairs of shoes. I prefer to spend my money enjoying nature, cooking gourmet meals and going to concerts. I buy shoes only when mine wear out. I have never equated possessions with happiness, and so know how to live richly with less. I am, in fact, a bit saddened to think there are women out there ATTENTION LANDLORDS who chase rainbows at the shoe store. Emptv · Closet In VVisconsin Dear Empty Closet: Shoes come in rainbow colors? OK, OK. we get it. You're not into shoes, and we know many women agree with you. Your husband must feel like a lucky guy.

These boys are crying out for help BY KATHY MtTCHEU AND MARCY SUGAR Dear Annie: I run a Sunday school program for 22 children. There are two young ch ildren in our care, "Billy," age 4, and "Andy," age 2. Their mother died a year a~o. while ~iving birth to the1r baby s1ster. Their father recently remarried. These children were man · ageable before their mother's death, but now they are impossible. Billy sits in front and hits the teacher's leg. pulls her skirt and kicks her. When restrained, he turns his attention to the teacljing board and pulls down pictures. During craft t1me, he crumple s his papers on the floor and refuses to participate. Separated from hi s older brother, Andy cooperates and follow s instructions. However~ he is slowly stanmg to 1m1tate Billy. While we do not know the intimate details of the home front , how do we handle the kids' behavior during the two-hour Sunday school and turn it around to be constructive instead of disruptive to the whole class'? Teacher's Aide Dear Teacher's Aide: Our hearts are breaking for these two little boys. Their mother died, they have a baby sister who demands a great deal of attention, and their father has remarried. They feel neglected and abandoned twice over. Their unruly behavior is their way of acting out their frustrations and gaining time and attention from the adults in their lives. They are crying for help. First, please talk to the father and sugj:est professional counseling for the boys. The pediatrician can recommend someone who specializes in young chil· dren. Then help Andy and B1lly get more positive attention by giving them a little extra time, thinking of special projects to work on (perhaps in art or music), and praising their efforts.

They need to believe they are good boys, not pigeonholed as troublemakers. Dear Annie: My boyfriend and I, along with several members of his family, enjoy drinking wine with our meal s. We take great care to choose interesting wines to serve, and the bottle s can be quite expensive. The only problem is that some family members do not like wine , but will nonetheless serve themselves a glass so as not to feel left out. They will then proceed to dilute the wine with water or soda, or leave their glass full without drinking any. I don't mind sharing, but I hate wasting what can otherwi se be enjoyed. Would it be appropnate to serve a "house" wine for these family members?- S. In California Dear S.: Yes and no . You don't want to single out those guests who don't indulge, or not offer them the opportunity to sample an interesting wine . You can minimize the waste by bein~ a more gracious host. Don 1 put a bottle oot the table for guests to serve themselves. Bring out two bottles - the good stuff and the house wine - and as k each guest which the~ would rrefer. If they don t care, it s your choice what to pour. Dear Annie: This is for "Shoeless Joe," the man who was baffled by the number of shoes in his girl· friend's closet. I'd like to point out that not all women are hooked on shoes. I am 44, attractive, and well-educated . I have been married 10 years and have chosen not to have children. I don't care for shopping, I hate romantic comedies, and I would infinitely rather watch a football !lame than "Sex and the Ctty." I own fewer than 10 pairs of shoes. I prefer to spend my money enjoying nature, cooking gourmet meals and going to concerts. I buy shoes only when mine wear out. I have never equated possessions with happiness, and so know how to live richly with less. I am, in fact, a bit saddened to think there are women out there ATTENTION LANDLORDS who chase rainbows at the shoe store. Emptv · Closet In VVisconsin Dear Empty Closet: Shoes come in rainbow colors? OK, OK. we get it. You're not into shoes, and we know many women agree with you. Your husband must feel like a lucky guy.

Take it to the bank - AI Gore's film will win the Academy Award for Best Documentary and highfives will be flying in Hollywood ; George Clooney may even break dance in the aisle. Mr. Gore's warning about global warming and the consequences thereof is in competition with four other films: One about wild and crazy Christian kids at "Jesus Camp;" another dealing with the Catholic church-pedophilia scandal, and two more about the chaos in Iraq. Gore wins without breaking a sweat, no pun intended. But did you notice that all five of the nominated documentaries have left or secular themes? In general, conservatives are not rallying to Gore's hypothesis that fossil fuels are damaging the planet, although the right should keep an open mind on that strong possibility. The two anti-Christian films are devastating. Bill O'Reilly Writing in Variety, Ronnie Scheib says this about "Jesus Camp": "[The film] may shock viewers, especially liberals, when it shows children speaking in tongues, their faces glowing in ecstasy and tears running down their cheeks." And Robert Koehler's review of "Deliver 1Js from Evil" opines, "It's hard to imagine even devout Catholics coming away from the film without a sense of rage at a religion that appears to value members of the priesthood over the well-being of children." Of course, the priestpedophilia scandal has nothing to do with the Catholic "religion." Theology played no part in it. The scandal happened because evil men working inside the Catholic Church did evil things. When Richard Nixon and his henchmen disgraced America, no sane person could blame it on the Constitution. It's the same thing with the Catholic scandal. There is no question that Hollywood continues to pour out product designed to promote a secular society and boost liberal political positions. And the entertainment industry is a powerful colossus. Millions worldwide closely follow the altitudes and themes Hollywood puts fonh. So in the interest of being "fair and balanced," I challenge Hollywood to produce to following docu mentaries this year. • "Tiller the Baby Killer." A documentary profiling Kansas abortionist George Tiller who, for $5,000, will abort a fetus up until birth. • "The Streets of San Francisco." A look at the thousands of homeless people, many addicted, who have !locked to the City by the Bay for free money and other perks the city bestows on them. . • "Fidel Camp." This film chronicles the plight of thousands of "subversives" who are or have been incarcerated in dungeons because Fidel Castro doesn't like them . Talk about an inconvenient truth. Maybe Oliver Stone could direct this. · • "The Kyoto Blues." An honest look at the Kyoto Protocol which, in order to blunt pollution, would require major economic changes in the USA, but would allow massive pollution to continue in China and India. Is AI Gore available to narrate'! • "NBC and Me." A peek inside a once proud network news organization that now promotes a leftwing agenda on a daily basi s. I'd like Whoopi Goldberg to voice over this one. These are all high concept, ready-to-roll subjects that are just waiting for some talented. people in Hollywood to take them on. What say you, Steven Spielberg? • Christine E. Black William ·oave' Watson KANAUGA - Chri stine E. Black, 90, of Kanau~a. passed away Thursday, Jan. 25, 2007, at Scenic Htlls Nursing Center, Bidwell.

It is a scientific fact that all drivers, including those who are going the wrong way on interstate highways, believe they are above average. Obviously, this is impossible: Some drivers have to be below average. Not me, of course. I am currently ranked fourth among the top drivers in world history, between Mario Andretti and Spartacus. But there are many incompetent people out there on the roads, changing speed and direction without warning or drifting along in the left, or "passing," lane at 23 m.p.h., blinking their tum signals, which they never tum off, even in the garage. These people make me crazy, which is why I am so excited about the car harpoon. I found out about the car harpoon from an Associated Press item, sent to me by many alen readers, concerning the police in the town of Oulu, Finland. Finland (also known as "Norway") is a northern European nation that also contains a city named "Espoo" (suggested Civic motto: "The City That Sounds Like A Person Spitting"). You might think that the biggest traffic menace in Dave Barry Finland would be unlicensed reindeer, but the Oulu police have a problem with speeders and drunk drivers who refuse to stop. That's why police Sgt. Markku Limingoja invented the car harpoon. This is a missile-shaped object, equipped with hydraulically activated barbs, that sticks several feet out from the front bumper of the police car. The idea is that if the police are chasing somebody, they ram the h~n into the fleeing car s trunk, activate the barbs to keep the two cars stuck together, then use their brakes to stop both vehicles. We definitely need the car harpoon over here. Of course, we'd have to modify the concept slightly, as follows: I. It would not be limited to police cars. It would also be available as an option on cars operated by qualitied civilian drivers such a.• (needless to say) yoursell. 2. The civilian model car harpoon - which I assume would be market~d under the name "Carpoon" - would contain additional features, including a powerful public-address system. The Carpoon would greatly enhance the driving experience. Envision this scenario: You 're behind a bad driver stopped at a traffic light. The light turns green, but the bad driver does not move. He was completely unprepared for the fact that - how the heck would anybody know this? - red would be followed by green. He's silting there, baffled, Iike a person watching a drive-in movie with a very complicated plot. You honk your horn, but this has n0 dfect on the bad driver, people are always honking at him, and he never knows why. Suddenly - WHAM the bad driver feel ; a jolt. Then he hears a ver y loud voice- your voice- \'Oming from inside his car, ;aying: "Excuse me' The light is green! You can go now!" This announcement would be followed, after J courtesy interval of one tenth of a second, by tea~ gas. As a mot Jrist, I want a Carpoon t1ow. And I' II tell you whdl else I want: a Tire Assault Vehicle. This is a reai device that was fea.tured in a publication called NASA Tech Briefs, sent in by alert reader Robert Stolpe. The Tire Assault Vehicle, or TAV, is desig'ned to protect humans from high-pressure aircral"t tires that might explode. Basically, the TAV is a remote-controlled model tank that has been modified to incorporate a video camera on top and an electric drill sticking out the front . The operator, from a safe distance, drives the TAV up to an aircraft lire and drills a hole in it, safely letting out the air. You know how som~~o­ times you're trying to find a space in a crowded parking lot, and you come to a car that some jerk has deliberately parked diagonally across two spaces? Can you imagine the satisfaction you'd experience if, without even having to leave the comfort and safety of your car, you could drill holes in the jerk's tires? But that would be wrong. Property destruction is not the solution. No, it would be bener to take a deep breath, calm down, wait patiently until the jerk returns to his car, and then drill holes in his shins. Wouldn't that be great? That's why you need to tell your federal government to stop nattering about air bags and start providing you, the above-average driver, with the Tire Assault Vehicle, the Carpoon and other technology (I am not ruling out nuclear weapons) that you can really use. So don't wait! Write to your congressperson now! AJso, press the accelerator. OK?

Chaffee's widow, Martha, and White 's son, Edward Ill, along with NASA associate administrator Bill Gerstenmaier, laid a wreath at the base of the Space Mirror Memorial, a tall granite-finished wall engraved with the names of the Apollo I, Challenger and Columbia astronauts and seven other astronauts killed in accidents. Chaffee, 69, remembered feeding her two children hot dogs for dinner that night in 1967 and knowing something was wrong when astronaut Michael Collins showed up at her home to tell her about the accident. "My first reaction was. ' What could have happened" He's not flying ,"' Martha Chaffee recalled before the ceremony. NASA also hadn't considered the countdown drill hazardous, anticipating accidents only in space. Fire rescue and medical teams were not at the launch pad. No procedures had been developed for the type of emergency the Apollo I crew faced. The work levels around the spacecraft contained steps, sliding door~ and sharp turns that hindered emergency responses. CAPE CANAVERAL. Fla. - It was supposed to be a routine launch pad test. But from the Apollo I command module at Pad 34 came a panicked voice saying, "Fire in the cockpit." Exactly 40 years later, the three Apollo astronauts who were killed in that flash fire were remembered Saturday for paving the way for later astronauts to be able to travel to the moon. The deaths of Virgil "Gus" Grissom, Ed White , and Roger Chaffee forced NASA to take pause in its space race with the Soviet Union and make design and safety changes that were critical to the agency's later successes. "I can assure you if we had not had that fire and rebuilt the command module ... we could not have done the Apollo program successfully," said retired astronaut John Young, who flew in Gemini 3 with Grissom in 1965. "So we . owe a Jot to Gus, and Rog and Ed. They made it possible for the rest of us to do the almost impossible."

Take it to the bank - AI Gore's film will win the Academy Award for Best Documentary and highfives will be flying in Hollywood ; George Clooney may even break dance in the aisle. Mr. Gore's warning about global warming and the consequences thereof is in competition with four other films: One about wild and crazy Christian kids at "Jesus Camp;" another dealing with the Catholic church-pedophilia scandal, and two more about the chaos in Iraq. Gore wins without breaking a sweat, no pun intended. But did you notice that all five of the nominated documentaries have left or secular themes? In general, conservatives are not rallying to Gore's hypothesis that fossil fuels are damaging the planet, although the right should keep an open mind on that strong possibility. The two anti-Christian films are devastating. Bill O'Reilly Writing in Variety, Ronnie Scheib says this about "Jesus Camp": "[The film] may shock viewers, especially liberals, when it shows children speaking in tongues, their faces glowing in ecstasy and tears running down their cheeks." And Robert Koehler's review of "Deliver 1Js from Evil" opines, "It's hard to imagine even devout Catholics coming away from the film without a sense of rage at a religion that appears to value members of the priesthood over the well-being of children." Of course, the priestpedophilia scandal has nothing to do with the Catholic "religion." Theology played no part in it. The scandal happened because evil men working inside the Catholic Church did evil things. When Richard Nixon and his henchmen disgraced America, no sane person could blame it on the Constitution. It's the same thing with the Catholic scandal. There is no question that Hollywood continues to pour out product designed to promote a secular society and boost liberal political positions. And the entertainment industry is a powerful colossus. Millions worldwide closely follow the altitudes and themes Hollywood puts fonh. So in the interest of being "fair and balanced," I challenge Hollywood to produce to following docu mentaries this year. • "Tiller the Baby Killer." A documentary profiling Kansas abortionist George Tiller who, for $5,000, will abort a fetus up until birth. • "The Streets of San Francisco." A look at the thousands of homeless people, many addicted, who have !locked to the City by the Bay for free money and other perks the city bestows on them. . • "Fidel Camp." This film chronicles the plight of thousands of "subversives" who are or have been incarcerated in dungeons because Fidel Castro doesn't like them . Talk about an inconvenient truth. Maybe Oliver Stone could direct this. · • "The Kyoto Blues." An honest look at the Kyoto Protocol which, in order to blunt pollution, would require major economic changes in the USA, but would allow massive pollution to continue in China and India. Is AI Gore available to narrate'! • "NBC and Me." A peek inside a once proud network news organization that now promotes a leftwing agenda on a daily basi s. I'd like Whoopi Goldberg to voice over this one. These are all high concept, ready-to-roll subjects that are just waiting for some talented. people in Hollywood to take them on.

It is a scientific fact that all drivers, including those who are going the wrong way on interstate highways, believe they are above average. Obviously, this is impossible: Some drivers have to be below average. Not me, of course. I am currently ranked fourth among the top drivers in world history, between Mario Andretti and Spartacus. But there are many incompetent people out there on the roads, changing speed and direction without warning or drifting along in the left, or "passing," lane at 23 m.p.h., blinking their tum signals, which they never tum off, even in the garage. These people make me crazy, which is why I am so excited about the car harpoon. I found out about the car harpoon from an Associated Press item, sent to me by many alen readers, concerning the police in the town of Oulu, Finland. Finland (also known as "Norway") is a northern European nation that also contains a city named "Espoo" (suggested Civic motto: "The City That Sounds Like A Person Spitting"). You might think that the biggest traffic menace in Dave Barry Finland would be unlicensed reindeer, but the Oulu police have a problem with speeders and drunk drivers who refuse to stop. That's why police Sgt. Markku Limingoja invented the car harpoon. This is a missile-shaped object, equipped with hydraulically activated barbs, that sticks several feet out from the front bumper of the police car. The idea is that if the police are chasing somebody, they ram the h~n into the fleeing car s trunk, activate the barbs to keep the two cars stuck together, then use their brakes to stop both vehicles. We definitely need the car harpoon over here. Of course, we'd have to modify the concept slightly, as follows: I. It would not be limited to police cars. It would also be available as an option on cars operated by qualitied civilian drivers such a.• (needless to say) yoursell. 2. The civilian model car harpoon - which I assume would be market~d under the name "Carpoon" - would contain additional features, including a powerful public-address system. The Carpoon would greatly enhance the driving experience. Envision this scenario: You 're behind a bad driver stopped at a traffic light. The light turns green, but the bad driver does not move. He was completely unprepared for the fact that - how the heck would anybody know this? - red would be followed by green. He's silting there, baffled, Iike a person watching a drive-in movie with a very complicated plot. You honk your horn, but this has n0 dfect on the bad driver, people are always honking at him, and he never knows why. Suddenly - WHAM the bad driver feel ; a jolt. Then he hears a ver y loud voice- your voice- \'Oming from inside his car, ;aying: "Excuse me' The light is green! You can go now!" This announcement would be followed, after J courtesy interval of one tenth of a second, by tea~ gas. As a mot Jrist, I want a Carpoon t1ow. And I' II tell you whdl else I want: a Tire Assault Vehicle. This is a reai device that was fea.tured in a publication called NASA Tech Briefs, sent in by alert reader Robert Stolpe. The Tire Assault Vehicle, or TAV, is desig'ned to protect humans from high-pressure aircral"t tires that might explode. Basically, the TAV is a remote-controlled model tank that has been modified to incorporate a video camera on top and an electric drill sticking out the front . The operator, from a safe distance, drives the TAV up to an aircraft lire and drills a hole in it, safely letting out the air. You know how som~~o­ times you're trying to find a space in a crowded parking lot, and you come to a car that some jerk has deliberately parked diagonally across two spaces? Can you imagine the satisfaction you'd experience if, without even having to leave the comfort and safety of your car, you could drill holes in the jerk's tires? But that would be wrong. Property destruction is not the solution. No, it would be bener to take a deep breath, calm down, wait patiently until the jerk returns to his car, and then drill holes in his shins. Wouldn't that be great? That's why you need to tell your federal government to stop nattering about air bags and start providing you, the above-average driver, with the Tire Assault Vehicle, the Carpoon and other technology (I am not ruling out nuclear weapons) that you can really use. So don't wait! Write to your congressperson now! AJso, press the accelerator. OK? The light is green. imnba!' m:rmtli - ~tnlintl • Page A5 Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis 2007 Grace Elch POMEROY - Grace Crow Eich, 94, Pomeroy, passed away on Thursday, Jan . 25, 2007, at Wyngate at Gallipolis.

Chaffee's widow, Martha, and White 's son, Edward Ill, along with NASA associate administrator Bill Gerstenmaier, laid a wreath at the base of the Space Mirror Memorial, a tall granite-finished wall engraved with the names of the Apollo I, Challenger and Columbia astronauts and seven other astronauts killed in accidents. Chaffee, 69, remembered feeding her two children hot dogs for dinner that night in 1967 and knowing something was wrong when astronaut Michael Collins showed up at her home to tell her about the accident. "My first reaction was. ' What could have happened" He's not flying ,"' Martha Chaffee recalled before the ceremony. NASA also hadn't considered the countdown drill hazardous, anticipating accidents only in space. Fire rescue and medical teams were not at the launch pad. No procedures had been developed for the type of emergency the Apollo I crew faced. The work levels around the spacecraft contained steps, sliding door~ and sharp turns that hindered emergency responses. CAPE CANAVERAL. Fla. - It was supposed to be a routine launch pad test. But from the Apollo I command module at Pad 34 came a panicked voice saying, "Fire in the cockpit." Exactly 40 years later, the three Apollo astronauts who were killed in that flash fire were remembered Saturday for paving the way for later astronauts to be able to travel to the moon. The deaths of Virgil "Gus" Grissom, Ed White , and Roger Chaffee forced NASA to take pause in its space race with the Soviet Union and make design and safety changes that were critical to the agency's later successes. "I can assure you if we had not had that fire and rebuilt the command module ... we could not have done the Apollo program successfully," said retired astronaut John Young, who flew in Gemini 3 with Grissom in 1965. "So we . owe a Jot to Gus, and Rog and Ed. They made it possible for the rest of us to do the almost impossible." The memorial service at the Kennedy Space Center Visitors Complex marked the start of a solemn week for NASA - Sunday is the CLOCKS We're The Store.

About . 16,000 departments around the nation obtained more than 380,000 pieces of equipment in tiscal 2005 alone, according to an Associated Press analysis of the surplus program. through which the military gives away items that ha ve been replaced or are no longer needed. The items including bulletproof vests, night-vision goggles and even helicopters - were worth nearly $ 124 million . "People say there's nothing free in this world. I agree. You have to go get it," Agler said. "We've gone as far as Colorado Springs, Colomdo, and brought stuff back." Law enforcement agencies across Ohio obtained 9,804 items in 2005 , valued at $7.9 million. the fifth highest among the states in terms of dollar amount. The Clark County sheriff's oftice in western Ohio used the program to obtain I0 M16 rifles, six M-14 rit1es and 20 45-caliber pistols. "Without these surplu s weapons, we're outgunned here on the streets," said Sheriff Gene Kelly. "We' re trying to step up our ability to protect this community. We 're grateful for the equipment." In 200 I, the department obtained 70 bulletproof vests valued at up to $500 apiece . Officers have also gotten helmets, and the department obtained a bus from the Air Force that it painted black and uses to haul inmates. Kelly, who described his budget as "bare-bones," said the body armor and highpowered rit1es are needed for potential emergencies, such as school shootings. "When you have an armed person in a school, you don't have time to call a SWAT team. Every minute you delay could cost someone their life," he said. "And many times the bad guys have more firepower and ammo." The Lima police department in northwest Ohio used the surplus program to ti nd a utility truck for its bomb squad several years ago. A field ambulance was converted into a command post for the department's hostage negoti ation team. ··tt was important for us to make sure those guys were properly equipped, but we didn 't have the money to upgrade," said police Chief Greg Garlock. "We' ve obtained things we would not have been able to obtain otherwi se." Even the smallest towns ha ve taken advantage of the program. New Straitsville, a town of 800 in southeast Ohio with a police force of one, obtained a four-wheel-drive pickup truck about four years ago to supplement patrols and remove snow. The vehicle, which had only 35,000 miles on it, still .wears its green camouflage colors. "It 's great for these small villages because we can't atford to buy things Iike that," said police Chief Lloyd Welch. The military surplus program is administere\1 by the Defense Logistics Agency. Police departments pay only to have the equipment shipped and buy any necessary upgrades. The giveaway program started in 1990 to transfer surplus military parts to police for anu-drug and anti-terrorism work. Its mission was later broadened. Each state has an office that helps facilitate the program. The military gives away only items it considers obsolete for its own use and parts that already have been replaced or are no longer needed in places such as Iraq. The Sugarcreek police department has obtained II horses through the pro~am since 2003, enabling 11 to form a mounted patrol. It received all-terrain vehicles for search and rescue, a backhoe it uses to work on the pistol mnge, an aluminum 'boat from the Navy, and a truck and generators that were used several years ago to supply electricity to residents of nearby Zoar who were stranded by t1oodwaters.

Children who violate the curfew could face unruly juvenile charges. and their parents could face misdemeanor charges under Chief Phil Messer's proposal. "We' re aimmg to make sure kids are in school when they're supposed to be," he said. "It says if you're school age, and you're suspended from school, you have to be home. You can't be out roaming the neighborhood." Other Ohio communities have daytime curfews that give police authority to question children found on the streets during school hours, Messer said.

The military gives away only items it considers obsolete for its own use and parts that already have been replaced or are no longer needed in places such as Iraq. The Sugarcreek police department has obtained II horses through the pro~am since 2003, enabling 11 to form a mounted patrol. It received all-terrain vehicles for search and rescue, a backhoe it uses to work on the pistol mnge, an aluminum 'boat from the Navy, and a truck and generators that were used several years ago to supply electricity to residents of nearby Zoar who were stranded by t1oodwaters.

Children who violate the curfew could face unruly juvenile charges. and their parents could face misdemeanor charges under Chief Phil Messer's proposal. "We' re aimmg to make sure kids are in school when they're supposed to be," he said. "It says if you're school age, and you're suspended from school, you have to be home. You can't be out roaming the neighborhood." Other Ohio communities have daytime curfews that give police authority to question children found on the streets during school hours, Messer said.

Wellston wins battle of struggling teams BY lARRY CRUM ROCK SPRINGS - It was a game both teams needed, but in the end, someone had to lose. In a battle of the bottom of the Tri- Valley Conference Ohio division. Meigs (2-12) and Wellston (3-12) both were hoping to get a monke~ off its back and on this mght it was the Rockets who came away victorious, taking a 51-41 victory Friday night in Rock Springs. While Meigs stayed right with ' the visitors from Wellston in the first half, a deadly 12-0 run early in the third quarter put things away for good as the Rockets held on for the win. Wellston was led by Mall Exline with 16 points. including four from behind the arc, Chris Comer with 13 points and Ryan Darnell with II points and a team high seven rebounds. Justin Barker added five points and four boards. L.B. Wilson had four points, four steals and three assists and Cody Wilkens had two points. For Meigs, Dave Poole led the way with a doubledouble of 13 points and 10 boards. while Eric Tolar added 13 points and nine rebounds. Aaron Cordell had six points and stx boards, Jesse Mullins had three points and Clay Bolin, Dan Bookman and Chris Goode had two points apiece. The Marauders came into the game motivated and it showed in the early portion of the game as the two teams tied four times and traded the lead three times before Wellston finally got out front, taking a 16-11 lead after one quarter of play. The low scoring duel continued in the second quarter. with Wellston only scoring Sfven points and Meigs shooting just as poorly with just six points as the visitors took a 23-17 lead into the half. But once the third quaner got underway, the intensity shown by Meigs in the first half all but disappeared while Wellston slowly began to extend its lead and pull away for good . The Rockets used a smothering defen se and an equally deadly offense which saw the team drain the clock with passes around the perimeter, only taking the shot if open. which led to a number of easy three-point goals and inside scores. The deciding factor came with 5:57 left in the third and Wellston holding a four point lead as the Rocket s attack completely shut down Meigs for nearly four minutes while extending its own lead to 16 points . Wellston had four buckets from behind the arc in the third quarter alone. with Exline dropping two for eight points, to help put the dagger in Meigs. The visitors extended their lead to 40-28 after the third quaner and put things away in the fourth despite an attempted comeback as the Rockets held on for the 10-poinl victory. Wellston also benefited from nearly double the fouls called on Meigs as the Rockets shot 59 percent ( 13-of-22) at the foul line . The Marauders shot only 44 percent (4-of-9) from the charity stripe. Meigs will next face Vinton County Thursday at home. Bv BRAD SHERMAN BSHERMANoMYOAILYTR IBUNE COM ASHTON , W.Va . South Gallia still has just one loss, which it will try to avenge thi s Tuesday.

Wellston wins battle of struggling teams BY lARRY CRUM ROCK SPRINGS - It was a game both teams needed, but in the end, someone had to lose. In a battle of the bottom of the Tri- Valley Conference Ohio division. Meigs (2-12) and Wellston (3-12) both were hoping to get a monke~ off its back and on this mght it was the Rockets who came away victorious, taking a 51-41 victory Friday night in Rock Springs. While Meigs stayed right with ' the visitors from Wellston in the first half, a deadly 12-0 run early in the third quarter put things away for good as the Rockets held on for the win. Wellston was led by Mall Exline with 16 points. including four from behind the arc, Chris Comer with 13 points and Ryan Darnell with II points and a team high seven rebounds. Justin Barker added five points and four boards. L.B. Wilson had four points, four steals and three assists and Cody Wilkens had two points. For Meigs, Dave Poole led the way with a doubledouble of 13 points and 10 boards. while Eric Tolar added 13 points and nine rebounds. Aaron Cordell had six points and stx boards, Jesse Mullins had three points and Clay Bolin, Dan Bookman and Chris Goode had two points apiece. The Marauders came into the game motivated and it showed in the early portion of the game as the two teams tied four times and traded the lead three times before Wellston finally got out front, taking a 16-11 lead after one quarter of play. The low scoring duel continued in the second quarter. with Wellston only scoring Sfven points and Meigs shooting just as poorly with just six points as the visitors took a 23-17 lead into the half. But once the third quaner got underway, the intensity shown by Meigs in the first half all but disappeared while Wellston slowly began to extend its lead and pull away for good . The Rockets used a smothering defen se and an equally deadly offense which saw the team drain the clock with passes around the perimeter, only taking the shot if open. which led to a number of easy three-point goals and inside scores. The deciding factor came with 5:57 left in the third and Wellston holding a four point lead as the Rocket s attack completely shut down Meigs for nearly four minutes while extending its own lead to 16 points . Wellston had four buckets from behind the arc in the third quarter alone. with Exline dropping two for eight points, to help put the dagger in Meigs. The visitors extended their lead to 40-28 after the third quaner and put things away in the fourth despite an attempted comeback as the Rockets held on for the 10-poinl victory. Wellston also benefited from nearly double the fouls called on Meigs as the Rockets shot 59 percent ( 13-of-22) at the foul line . The Marauders shot only 44 percent (4-of-9) from the charity stripe.

Wahama was led by three double -digit scorers, with Airael Derifield posting a team high 17 points. Amber Tully had 16 points and Taylor Hysell added II markers in the win.

But once things got underway, Wahama established its dominance. The Lady Falcons went up 7-0 in the early minutes and then extended that lead to 11-4 after one quarter of play. They then pushed that lead ahead even more in the second with a 15-11 scoring advantage to take an 11 point halftime lead. Wahama picked up ri$ht where it left off in the thtrd quarter with a game high 17 points and finished things off with 15 in the final eight minutes.

Rio was 43-1-2 in the two years that Hunter starred on the !>itch aod he was a big reason for the success. Rio's only blemish in the two years came in the second round of the national tournament in 2004, dropping a 2-1 overtime decision to Evergreen State. Following the 2004-05 academic year, Hunter made the decision to transfer to UNC, where he starred for the Tar Heels in the ACC. Hunter wanted to thank what he called his suppon staff. "Obviously, my main feeling, is that I feel very good, 1 want to give credit for all the support from (Rio Grande coaches) Scott (Morrissey) and Tony (Daniels) and to my staff here at North Carolina," Hunter said. Hunter said that he knew the Crew had expressed some interest in him earlier in the season. "(They went) through my agent, we knew they hild eltpressed some interest," Hunter said. "I was offered a contract (in England), but I wouldn't have been able to JUaduate, which is something that I really want to accorn- · plish." . Hunter added that the Crew organization will worlc with him as he completes his degree. Hunter tallced about what an e!Jioyable time he had while at Rio Grande, although it wasn't always easy. "My time at Rio, as a young kid, was a reaJly a hard transition to make," Hunter said. "I had never been away from home before, but guys like Simon Carey and the guys who were juniors aod seniors on that team really helped me get through it." Hunter added that after his lirst practice at Rio, he broke down and cried on the practice lield, because he didn't want to be there. But <ts time went on and Hunter stuck it. out, things worked ·Out nicely tor him as later that tirst year he would celebrate wuh his teammates on the pitch in Olathe, Kan. as a national champion. "Winning the national championsfiip that ftrst year was such a great accomplishment," Hunter said. "! was really fonunate to play with some great players.' And now he will get the opportunity of a lifetime, playing a~ a professional in a city that is approximately two hours away- from where his collegiate career began. Rio head coach Scott Morrissey spoke highly of Hl\Jiter. "Ben was a very vital pan of the success of the 2003 National Championship team," Morrissey said. "He s certainly was, if not the same, even better in 2004 and then transferred. "I have a lot of respect for Ben," Morrissey added. "Because his ulumate goal was to play professional soccer and he put himself in a great position when he transferred to North Carolina; to get his name out there and get that additional exposure that's uired" 1:-forrissey was happy to see Hunter be illfoo:led wtth such a tremendous opj)Ortunily. "For Ben to be dnified by the Columbus Crew is a very big deal. I'm very proud JO say thai he played at Rio Grande for the two years aod cenainly wish him aD the very best. "We're all very proud of Ben." Although a roster spot is not guaranteed, Morrissey believes that Hunter will have a good sho1 of sticking with STAFF REPORT SPOATS@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM the team, "~'s F:a~r· opportumty, JUS! he was a fourth round draft pick doesn't mean that he's not going to have his opp!l1Unity," Morrissey said "He' D have somewhat of a mountain to climb to break into that staning 11. . "I've always said that Ben is a tremendous player with his left foot; be's a left-footer," not that he can't play with his ridtt foot." Morrissey said. "But I think when he gets to that stage, he's going to have to be just as elfecuve going right as he is going left. "He has tremendous touch, great with his back to the goal, very good pace, he'D have his work cut out for him, but I think he's certainly good enough to do it." Morrissey also likes the fact that if Hunter makes the squad, he will get the chance to see him play m person. "We can get in the car and drive two hours to watch him plar, with the Columbus Crew, ' Morrissey said. "If he was playing with Southampton or somebody back borne, we would only be able to look at bolt scores and check things on the Internet. "It's exciting, I'm really, really pleased for Ben and the opportunity that he ha~ been gtven and just look forward to seeing him play in Columbus and hopefully have a very positive and lengthy career with the Crew,' Morrissey added. Rio assistant coach Tony Daniels stated Hunter was one of the driving forces on the '03 and '04 teams. "Ever since we made contact with Ben, initially, via the web and the phone, you could tell that there was just somethin~ about him that was different, Daniels said. "He energized the team, he was that good of a r,Iayer; he was quality. 'Getting to know him, he's a great guy, you saw that he wanted to go to the next level and he used us as a stepping stone, so to speak," Daniels added. "But, there was no harm, no foul, he left in good graces; he_got a full ride to go to North Carolina, "He did what he had 10 do to go ahead aod be signed at the next level." Daniels commented on what Hunter's si~ng means to him.

One week later. they made sure thai didn ' t happen again. This time it was Van 13-9) traveling to Mason to take on the Lady Falcons (9-5) and Wahama made sure this game would not be as tightly contested as the Red and White went on top early and then set their cruise control over the final three quarters to take a 58-32 victory Friday night. Wahama was led by three double -digit scorers, with Airael Derifield posting a team high 17 points. Amber Tully had 16 points and Taylor Hysell added II markers in the win. Van, on the other hand, was limited to J.ust one weapon as Kristin arrellled aJI players with 18 points on the night. The game was delayed briefly as the Lady Bulldogs did not arrive to Wahama's gym until nearly an hour after the game was slated to start. But once things got underway, Wahama established its dominance. The Lady Falcons went up 7-0 in the early minutes and then extended that lead to 11-4 after one quarter of play. They then pushed that lead ahead even more in the second with a 15-11 scoring advantage to take an 11 point halftime lead. Wahama picked up ri$ht where it left off in the thtrd quarter with a game high 17 points and finished things off with 15 in the final eight minutes. Van, on the other hand, could only muster 15 totaJ points in the second half as the Lady Falcons easily held on for the 26-point VICtOry. Following the trio of scorers for Wahama was Mary Kebler with eight point s, Tiffiny Sleeth with five points and Kayanna Sayre with one point. Van added Erin Cook with six points, Katelyn McCoy with four points and Savanna Holland and Megan Paul with two points apiece.

The Lady Falcons will next meet Wood County later today in Mason.

Following the 2004-05 academic year, Hunter made the decision to transfer to UNC, where he starred for the Tar Heels in the ACC. Hunter wanted to thank what he called his suppon staff. "Obviously, my main feeling, is that I feel very good, 1 want to give credit for all the support from (Rio Grande coaches) Scott (Morrissey) and Tony (Daniels) and to my staff here at North Carolina," Hunter said. Hunter said that he knew the Crew had expressed some interest in him earlier in the season. "(They went) through my agent, we knew they hild eltpressed some interest," Hunter said. "I was offered a contract (in England), but I wouldn't have been able to JUaduate, which is something that I really want to accorn- · plish." . Hunter added that the Crew organization will worlc with him as he completes his degree. Hunter tallced about what an e!Jioyable time he had while at Rio Grande, although it wasn't always easy. "My time at Rio, as a young kid, was a reaJly a hard transition to make," Hunter said. "I had never been away from home before, but guys like Simon Carey and the guys who were juniors aod seniors on that team really helped me get through it."

"It's exciting, I'm really, really pleased for Ben and the opportunity that he ha~ been gtven and just look forward to seeing him play in Columbus and hopefully have a very positive and lengthy career with the Crew,' Morrissey added. Rio assistant coach Tony Daniels stated Hunter was one of the driving forces on the '03 and '04 teams. "Ever since we made contact with Ben, initially, via the web and the phone, you could tell that there was just somethin~ about him that was different, Daniels said. "He energized the team, he was that good of a r,Iayer; he was quality.

"But, there was no harm, no foul, he left in good graces; he_got a full ride to go to North Carolina, "He did what he had 10 do to go ahead aod be signed at the next level."

Those spots, which have previously featured the supermodel Fabio and MC Hammer, will show Federline winding up working in a fast-food restaurant. Humor and attempts to drive viewers to the Web, two themes from past years, are back again with some variations, and this year's Super Bowl commercials add a new twist - viewer panicipation. One of the biggest new themes of this year's game is getting amateurs into the act. General Motors Corp.

The reporter circulated around (own to ask both men and women the above question. Several, then no longer in the teaching profession, said that they were teaching school when they were , 21 . R. Henry Tanner taught at Willow Grove in Huntington Township in 1881 -82 for $25 a month. Of course, not only was he the only teacher, but he was also the custodian who had to keep the fire going and clean up the school. Carrie Sawyers was teaching at Yale College in Addison Township and Florence Campbell taught at three schools in one year: Fairfield, Quai I Trap and Yale. Butler Cornswell of Chambersburg said that when he was 21 he was a . clerk on the "Lousy Jim" Fashion boat. which ran : between Gallipolis and · Huntington daily. The cost for a ride one way was 10 cents and for another 10 cents, you could by a steak . dinner on the boat. A : perusal of Way's Packer Boat Directory will yield · the information that this : particular boat ran that route :from 1874 to 1876. . Col. H.B. Ecker was : *orking on a ranch in Leadore, Idaho, feeding 200 head of cattle and .50 horses as well as milking siK cows and carrying the mail twice a day between Junction and Leadore. He also added that he did his own cooking. Ecker returned to Gallipolis and later was owner of the Chevrolet garage, ,and the Ecker and Myers Realty. Jake Frank was working on a big ranch at Buffalo Gap in Tarrant County, Texas. near Fort Worth. He busted broncos an ddid general ranch work. On occasion he drove cattle north to Kansas City. He may have become acquainted there with another Gallipolitan, George Bovie, who worked for the meatpacking firm Swift & Co. at age 21. J.S. Clark was working for Graham, Clark and Riggs in the Vicksburg office. That above named firm was a produce wholesaler headquartered in Clay Township of Gallia County. They also dealt in coal and had offices in Memphis. Tenn., where Jefferson Davis was son of their biggest customers. P.T. Wall. at a~e 21. was studying medictne in his father's office, which was across the street from the courthouse. Wall then drifted into reportial/editorial work for the Gallipolis Journal. He became famous overnight for his "Gallipolis by Gaslight" column, which told of all the secret happenings in the wild days of Gallipolis history, the I 1:!80s. Wall later turned to real estate and insurance as well as writing local history. Leo Carter was 21 in 1918 and was lyin~ in Room 13 of the hospttal in Vichy, France. He was there when the Armistice ending World Wr I was signed. He went on to tell the reporter that Vichy was famous for its bottled WBter. C.O. Clark was u student at Oberlin College. He had already taught school for two terms before entering college. That was possible in the 1870s because all one needed to do was to pass the teacher's exam and be 18 years of age to be qualified to teach school. Clark also reported that while a student at Oberlin, he and some classmates journeyed to Philadelphia to attend the Centennial Exposition, which was held in 1876. Clark was later a professor at Rio Grande College. J.T. Soden at age 21 was working in the C.M. Adams furniture · factory which at the time was located on the property that later was used as a supermarket for many years between Third and Fourth avenues on Court Street. That factory burned down in the 1880s, but C. M. Adams had a retail furniture store in the 300 block of Second Avenue until 1913, when they were bought out by Empire Furniture. James Hill said.

Southern grad practicing medicine Responses were interesting BY JAMU SANDI In January and February 1932. the Gallipolis Daily Tribune ran a column called "Where were you and what were you doing when 21 ?" The reporter circulated around (own to ask both men and women the above question. Several, then no longer in the teaching profession, said that they were teaching school when they were , 21 . R. Henry Tanner taught at Willow Grove in Huntington Township in 1881 -82 for $25 a month. Of course, not only was he the only teacher, but he was also the custodian who had to keep the fire going and clean up the school. Carrie Sawyers was teaching at Yale College in Addison Township and Florence Campbell taught at three schools in one year: Fairfield, Quai I Trap and Yale. Butler Cornswell of Chambersburg said that when he was 21 he was a . clerk on the "Lousy Jim" Fashion boat. which ran : between Gallipolis and · Huntington daily. The cost for a ride one way was 10 cents and for another 10 cents, you could by a steak . dinner on the boat. A : perusal of Way's Packer Boat Directory will yield · the information that this : particular boat ran that route :from 1874 to 1876. . Col. H.B. Ecker was : *orking on a ranch in Leadore, Idaho, feeding 200 head of cattle and .50 horses as well as milking siK cows and carrying the mail twice a day between Junction and Leadore. He also added that he did his own cooking. Ecker returned to Gallipolis and later was owner of the Chevrolet garage, ,and the Ecker and Myers Realty. Jake Frank was working on a big ranch at Buffalo Gap in Tarrant County, Texas. near Fort Worth. He busted broncos an ddid general ranch work. On occasion he drove cattle north to Kansas City. He may have become acquainted there with another Gallipolitan, George Bovie, who worked for the meatpacking firm Swift & Co. at age 21. J.S. Clark was working for Graham, Clark and Riggs in the Vicksburg office. That above named firm was a produce wholesaler headquartered in Clay Township of Gallia County. They also dealt in coal and had offices in Memphis. Tenn., where Jefferson Davis was son of their biggest customers. P.T. Wall. at a~e 21. was studying medictne in his father's office, which was across the street from the courthouse. Wall then drifted into reportial/editorial work for the Gallipolis Journal. He became famous overnight for his "Gallipolis by Gaslight" column, which told of all the secret happenings in the wild days of Gallipolis history, the I 1:!80s. Wall later turned to real estate and insurance as well as writing local history. Leo Carter was 21 in 1918 and was lyin~ in Room 13 of the hospttal in Vichy, France. He was there when the Armistice ending World Wr I was signed. He went on to tell the reporter that Vichy was famous for its bottled WBter. C.O. Clark was u student at Oberlin College. He had already taught school for two terms before entering college. That was possible in the 1870s because all one needed to do was to pass the teacher's exam and be 18 years of age to be qualified to teach school. Clark also reported that while a student at Oberlin, he and some classmates journeyed to Philadelphia to attend the Centennial Exposition, which was held in 1876. Clark was later a professor at Rio Grande College. J.T. Soden at age 21 was working in the C.M. Adams furniture · factory which at the time was located on the property that later was used as a supermarket for many years between Third and Fourth avenues on Court Street. That factory burned down in the 1880s, but C. M. Adams had a retail furniture store in the 300 block of Second Avenue until 1913, when they were bought out by Empire Furniture. James Hill said.

Lymphedema Therapy ' This service allows patients who have not been able to receive treatment for Lymphedema due to transportation to the appropriate facility, poor health conditions and other burdens to receive treatment in the comforts of their home. Lymphedema is an accumulation of lymphatic fluid in the interstitial tissue that causes swelling, most often in the arm(s) and/or leg(s), and occasionally in other parts of the body. Lymphedema can develop when lymphatic vessels are missing or impaired (primary), or when lymph vessels are damaged or lymph nodes removed (secondary) .When the impairment becomes so great that the lymphatic fluid exqeeds the lymphatic transport capacity, an abnormal amount of protein-rich fluid collects in the tissues of the affected area. Left untreated, this stagnant, protein-rich fluid not only causes tissue channels to increase in size and number, but also reduces oxygen availability in the transport system, interferes with wound healing, and provides a culture medium for bacteria that can result in lymphangitis (infection). Treatments for Lymphedema: Planning the treatment program depends on the cause of the Lymphedema. For example: If the initial signs and symptoms of swelling are caused by infection (redness, rash, heat, blister or pain may indicate an infection), antibiotics will first need to be prescribed. Treating an infection often reduces some of the swelling and discoloration. If the Lymphedema is not caused by infection: Depending on the severity of the Lymphedema, the recommended treatment plan should be determined using an approach based on the Complex Decongestive Therapy (CDT) methods which consist of: a) manual lymphatic drainage; b) bandaging; c) proper skin care & diet; d) compression garments (sleeves, stockings),as well as other alternative approaches); e) remedial exercises; f) self-manual lymphatic drainage & bandaging , if instruction is available; g) continue to follow prophylactic methods at all times.

In the Gallipoli s Tribune, there were reports of celebrations at the University of Rio Grande , Paint Creek Baptist Church. and a theatrical performance held in the Portsmouth area. The month of February has been celebrated as "Black History" or "Africao American History" month throughout the country since 1926. Although the population of African Americans in Galli a County is small (less than 3 percent), the history is quite large. Situated along the Ohio River, Gallia County had a role in the Underground Railroad. Before the Civil War, land in Gallia County was given to a group of former slaves still called the Lambert Lands . Research on Melungeons has led to families with Gallia County roots . Gallipolis is noted in education as having had the first black Ph.D. (Edward Bouche!) as the principal of the Lincoln school. The John Gee Black Historical Center in Gallipolis was established as a cultural and educational center to ensure the preservation of tradition, cu lture, crafts, music and art of the black Americans in Southeastern Ohio. Gallia County has gained national attention for hosting an annual celebration of the · Emancipation Proclamation in the fall (since 1863).

There is probably no book more haunting than Elie Wiesel's Night, his memoir of the Holocau st and the time he spent with his father in Auschwitz concentration camp. The Nobel Peace Prize winner in 1986, Wiesel feels Night is hi s most important work. His story begins with his happy childhood in Sighet, Tran sy lvania, where he studied the Torah and . was a serious, reli' gious boy. His family was first moved to a large ghetto, then a smaller one, then herded into cattle cars for the harrowing journey to the camp. On arriving at Auschwitz, his father was advised to state his own age as younger and his son's as older. Able-bodied men were "selected" to work, while women, children, the sick and the elderly were consigned to the ovens immediately. The Jews in Wiesel's hometown had ignored pleas to flee from a former prisoner who had escaped. Moishe 's stories were too horrible to be believed. When the camps were liberated. the worked also found the stories hard to believe. It is difficult to understand how anyone survived the camps. Elie and his father were cold, starved, miserable .

Somehow they managed to hang on to sanity and love for one another. Wiesel's greatest guilt and shame come from not aiding his father when he was being beaten by the SS because of his own fear. It is also difficu)t to understand why publishers at first rejected this book. Perhaps they thought it was just too fresh in memories, and that people just wanted, ''to go on with their lives," following the horrors of the Holocaust.

There's one problem, though. A beer bust will not cut it anymore. It could be that women have infiltrated your guest list. Maybe it's that you 've been feeling more metrosexual than fraternity brother recently. Or it might be that serving cheap beer and pizza doesn't seem appropriate when you're watching the game on that envy-inducing flatscreen you just purchased. Whatever the reason, it's time for a new game plan. Don't get nervous, we're hardly talking sit-dow n dinner with cloth napkins. Super Bowl Sunday still is the ultimate guy day, and the real reason you and your friends are getting together is to watch The Game - and hurl a few snarky remarks at the exorbitantly priced commercials. So, while you're willing to cross the threshold and step into the kitchen without the tether of a significant other's help you want your menu to be easy to prepare and impressive to your guests. By choosing idiot-proof recipes that cut corners by making use of packaged foods. a few clever interpretatinns of old standbys and a spruced up drinks menu, the only thing you'll be leaving to chance is the quality of the football. "I think you want to keep it light, keep it easy, keep it si mple. You want food that they think you spent hours on it but really only spent five, six minutes," says Sandra Lee, host of the Food "SemiNetwork's Homemade Cooking with Sandra Lee." Keep it light'! Fear not. No one's expecting you to put out a erudite tray. There are several givens when you're getting a group of guys together to watch a major sporting event. Whether it's drinking too much or eating foods that would make a cardiologist cringe. they like to indulge. " If you want to keep things relatively healthy you should have a healthbased line, something where you start and you don't kind of cross that line," said Matt Goulding, assistant editor and resident foodie at Men's Health magazine. " If I was throwing a Super Bowl party I'm not going to serve wings, but I might take boneless, skinless chicken and skewer it and grill it with a spicy peanut sauce." It's not a burden to elim, inate some of what Goulding calls "caloric calamities." Instead of cheese dip, try guacamole or hummus. Looking for a substitute for potato chips? Broil a batch of Lee's Creole curly chili fries , using store-bought frozen fries . Even a childhood favorite, pigs in a blanket, can be made into a healthier finger food in little time.

And with a little creativity you don't have to ditch that old standby, the buffalo chicken wing. either at least in spirit. Using a packet of buffalo wing spice, Lee, whose speedy cooking methods rely on incorporating prepared foods and seasonings· into her recipes. turns shrimp into a reasonable substitute for the fall y favorites. Of course. the healthiest approach would be to cut out the snacks altogether, but with a bevy of rowdy guests that would be next to impossible. One way to limit the monotonous dipping, Goulding said, is to move up the main course. "I think rather than starting with the snacking and moving on to something larger. it's nice to get things fired up right there in the first quarter or even during the pregame." Goulding said. "By providing something like a big thing of chi li or using the Crock-Pot to do something like pu lied pork shoulder, you help pad the stomach before you get into the major football watching ." Linda Gassenheimer, the author of "Prevention's Fit and Fast Meals in Minutes," has a heart y pork chili that takes about 40 minutes, including cooking time. She recommends using canned beans and tomatoes, and prechopped onions to cut down on prep time. Leave a pot on the stove and put out a few garnishes like sour cream and onions , and as Gassenheimer said. your guests can "graze" throughout the g~me.

In the Gallipoli s Tribune, there were reports of celebrations at the University of Rio Grande , Paint Creek Baptist Church. and a theatrical performance held in the Portsmouth area. The month of February has been celebrated as "Black History" or "Africao American History" month throughout the country since 1926. Although the population of African Americans in Galli a County is small (less than 3 percent), the history is quite large. Situated along the Ohio River, Gallia County had a role in the Underground Railroad. Before the Civil War, land in Gallia County was given to a group of former slaves still called the Lambert Lands . Research on Melungeons has led to families with Gallia County roots . Gallipolis is noted in education as having had the first black Ph.D. (Edward Bouche!) as the principal of the Lincoln school. The John Gee Black Historical Center in Gallipolis was established as a cultural and educational center to ensure the preservation of tradition, cu lture, crafts, music and art of the black Americans in Southeastern Ohio. Gallia County has gained national attention for hosting an annual celebration of the · Emancipation Proclamation in the fall (since 1863). These are all reasons for the public library to continually examine related available resources.

The public library can help sort out the best, the most relevant, or the most accurate on-line and provide a sites smaller, more manageable print collection for browsmg. A search of the public library might begin with The Africar• American Encyclopedia. Six volumes feature entries on people, organizations, landmarks, professions, entertainment, military activity, religion, family life, politics, court cases, cultural movements and other facets of life that have a "unique expression among African Americans." Searching the public catalog, a patron of Bossard Library will find I ,096 records for "African American" and another 160 for "civil rights."

There is probably no book more haunting than Elie Wiesel's Night, his memoir of the Holocau st and the time he spent with his father in Auschwitz concentration camp.

His story begins with his happy childhood in Sighet, Tran sy lvania, where he studied the Torah and . was a serious, reli' gious boy. His family was first moved to a large ghetto, then a smaller one, then herded into cattle cars for the harrowing journey to the camp. On arriving at Auschwitz, his father was advised to state his own age as younger and his son's as older. Able-bodied men were "selected" to work, while women, children, the sick and the elderly were consigned to the ovens immediately. The Jews in Wiesel's hometown had ignored pleas to flee from a former prisoner who had escaped. Moishe 's stories were too horrible to be believed. When the camps were liberated. the worked also found the stories hard to believe. It is difficult to understand how anyone survived the camps. Elie and his father were cold, starved, miserable .

Somehow they managed to hang on to sanity and love for one another. Wiesel's greatest guilt and shame come from not aiding his father when he was being beaten by the SS because of his own fear. It is also difficu)t to understand why publishers at first rejected this book. Perhaps they thought it was just too fresh in memories, and that people just wanted, ''to go on with their lives," following the horrors of the Holocaust. Now, Night is on reading lists throughout the nation's schools . Wiesel felt compelled to write his story, to bear witness for all those who died. an d as a lesson to the living, that this must never happen again. But it has.

"By providing something like a big thing of chi li or using the Crock-Pot to do something like pu lied pork shoulder, you help pad the stomach before you get into the major football watching ." Linda Gassenheimer, the author of "Prevention's Fit and Fast Meals in Minutes," has a heart y pork chili that takes about 40 minutes, including cooking time. She recommends using canned beans and tomatoes, and prechopped onions to cut down on prep time. Leave a pot on the stove and put out a few garnishes like sour cream and onions , and as Gassenheimer said. your guests can "graze" throughout the g~me. Still afraid of the kitchen, fire up the grill the real guy's domain . Me Kee likes to do a rack of lamb and a chateaubriand for his highend party client_s.

The mailperson has lugged those seed and plant magazines to your doorstep, so take the time to select the latest to give your garden that distinctive look. If you need some inspiration, look at the variety of magazines and books on Jardening found at our Joe libraries, book stores and internet connections. Several ~arden clubs have membershtp drives looking for new and active gardeners. Both vegetable and 11ower gardens may assist in one of your New Year's resolutions - losing a little weight and firming up the waist line. By the time you dig up your garden area, load and haul soil amendments, rake out the garden, plant it, weed it daily, chase the critters out of taking their fair share of your bounty, and harvest the vegetables, you won't have to worry about love handles or an expanding waist line. Secondly, the benefit of eatin~ fresh lettuce, beets, omons, peas, beans, tomatoes, peppers and perhaps sweet corn would improve most of our dietary habits. In the planning stage, decide how large an area you want or need. Allow sufficient room to expand as most people initially start off too small. It may be more manageable; however, our plants need room to grow. You can double and triple plant some gardens, but you need to be ruthless in harvesting and pulling plants that may be still bearing a few flowers or a fruit or two. · Take a soil sample. and for $15, our office can send it away for a spil analysis. Soil acidity and basic nutrient availability relate to the productivity of the garden. When locating your garden, remember that vegetable gardens should have sunlight all day. For those shadier parts of your yard, Galli a there are some !lowering plants that prefer shade , especially in the afternoon . Have an available source of water nearby the garden. Installing underline PVC may be preferable to lugging around a couple hundred feet of hose. So get busy and plan that new garden area! ••• The United States Department of Agriculture is asking all Ohio farmers for their assistance in reply ing to a national survey as to their operating expenditures, production costs and houliehold characteristics.

The mailperson has lugged those seed and plant magazines to your doorstep, so take the time to select the latest to give your garden that distinctive look. If you need some inspiration, look at the variety of magazines and books on Jardening found at our Joe libraries, book stores and internet connections. Several ~arden clubs have membershtp drives looking for new and active gardeners. Both vegetable and 11ower gardens may assist in one of your New Year's resolutions - losing a little weight and firming up the waist line. By the time you dig up your garden area, load and haul soil amendments, rake out the garden, plant it, weed it daily, chase the critters out of taking their fair share of your bounty, and harvest the vegetables, you won't have to worry about love handles or an expanding waist line. Secondly, the benefit of eatin~ fresh lettuce, beets, omons, peas, beans, tomatoes, peppers and perhaps sweet corn would improve most of our dietary habits. In the planning stage, decide how large an area you want or need. Allow sufficient room to expand as most people initially start off too small. It may be more manageable; however, our plants need room to grow. You can double and triple plant some gardens, but you need to be ruthless in harvesting and pulling plants that may be still bearing a few flowers or a fruit or two. · Take a soil sample. and for $15, our office can send it away for a spil analysis. Soil acidity and basic nutrient availability relate to the productivity of the garden. When locating your garden, remember that vegetable gardens should have sunlight all day. For those shadier parts of your yard, Galli a there are some !lowering plants that prefer shade , especially in the afternoon . Have an available source of water nearby the garden. Installing underline PVC may be preferable to lugging around a couple hundred feet of hose. So get busy and plan that new garden area! ••• The United States Department of Agriculture is asking all Ohio farmers for their assistance in reply ing to a national survey as to their operating expenditures, production costs and houliehold characteristics.
