Does your garden look neglected. desolate or melancholy? It need not. even if it's too cold for plants to grow, or snow blankets the ground. A quick and easy first step to creating a pleasant winter scene outdoors is to tidy up. Put away buckets and gardening tools, straighten akimbo posts, and cut back old flower stalks. Formal gardens need more tidying than informal gardens, but even informal gardens benefit from some tidying up. After all. an abandoned lot is no wildtlower meadow. Tidiness lends some order to. the scene, but emphasizing that order makes things prettier. Define and organize outdoor space wilh masses and lines created by plants. fences. walls even benches and statuary. For instance , an arbor looks pretty enough si,lriog through fall, if you nottce it among climbing plants. But once winter comes, the arbor stands out, detlning space on either side. Come snow, milky white dots cap each post and white strokes define horizontal elements. dressing the arbor up in much the same way as vines dressed it up in summer. For longer-term planning, keep in mind other ways to make sure your garden will look pleasing year-round: Rows of plants also define spaces. Use a row of trees, even if they are small. Or a dnuble row of trees that draw s you • along as if through a tunnel. Or hedges: Even deciduous hedges make a winter statement if they are twiggy like forsythia or privet. Low hedges of evergreen dwarf boxwood can create a tapestry at ground level. A single tree trunk can define an area by acting as a visual anchor, a centerpiece. What's needed here is a large tree, and the more massive its trunk the greater the effect. The challenge in creating a landscape enjoyable in winter as well as the rest of the year is in integrating all the design elements. rhink in three dimensions rather than two. Design with mass, viewed mostly from ground level, either from indoors or outside. Wall in spaces, open up vistas, create thoroughfares and resting places. Use decorative fencing or rows of plants to knit the scene together. Elsewhere, the scene might need livening with a focal point - a statue or a bench, for example. Winter also is a time to highlight aspects of plants lost in summer's lushness: the tiered branches of doublefile viburnum: the red berries on leafless stems of winterberry; the curling, coppery bark of paperbark maple . Your garden may not be what you· d hope it to be in winter - yet. Let new plantings, new growth, at1d new construction carry it doser to that goal each year. NEW MARKET, Va. Early in the new year is a ~ood time to deal with famtly health plans. It's an opponunity for fresh stans, for renewal and for developing healthier habits. How about stani ng by scheduling a physical for your yard? Going from family exams to plant checkups isn't that much of a s[retch. Early detection could provide the 11ecessary time to nip any problems you may discover m the bud, so to speak. Hiring properly trained practitioners is good preventive medicine for valued vegetation. It also makes for less long-term property maintenance. • Turf-care specialists can recommend fixes for scruffy lawns. • County extension agents can walk homeowners through the mechanics of soi I sampling. • Master gardeners can help diagnose plant ailments and suggest the appropriate remedies. • Arborists can spot prob-• !ems with trees and shrubs, no matter what time of year. And many are willing to make house calls. "We've learned a lot from human health care," Sharon Lilly said. She is educational-goods and services director of the International Society of Arboriculture (lSA), a 19,000-member, not-for-protit, · tree-care research and education group based in Champaign, Ill. "There's an acknowledgment that it's imponant to keep ourselves healthy. Certain genetic traits can become problems later on," she said. "It's not all that different in the plant world." The society's certified arborists are trained to offer "Plant Health Care," an HMO-like concept resembling Integrated Pest Management (IPM) for insect control. Both programs center on improving the health, growth and beauty of yards, residential or commercial. While the emphasis is on trees and shrubs, arborists work toward optimizing the health of the overall landscape, Lilly said. "That could entail everything from drainage site conditions to mulch use. Putting certain · types of trees on a pruning schedule. Recommending ways that trees and turf can be made to improve the health of each other." However, little can be done if diseased trees are discovered and diagnosed too late, Lilly said. "The focus is on prevention," she said. "If you're preventing problems, spending is less in the long run. Trees and other (growing) things in ~P photo This Virginia property owner is inspecting some recently planted Japanese maple trees to determine damage or infestation. if any, and to spread mulch around the roots in such a way that it insulates rather than suffocates with the onset of winter. Preventive care is as important for plants as it is for humans. your landscape are big assets. worth tens of thousands of dollars. They take years to grow to maturity. It's wonh protecting their val ue and · minimizing the risk of a fail ure down the road." The basic premise hehind !SA's particular Plant Health Care philosophy is that natural defenses can be strengthened when plants have been properly cared for. Energy used lighting stress can be channeled instead toward building up natural systems. Determming something as simple as soi l chemistry can save property ·owners a great deal of time and effon. Tests can be done at home using simple-to-follow kits or, for a nominal lee, bv se nding core samples to the nearest university extension-service lab. A typical soil analysis identilies texture. pH, phosphorous and potassium levels and the amount of organic matter present in the samples, among other things. Test results also suggest which nutrients should be added and in what amounts. Follow-ups are recommended every three to seven years. "Some trees like pin oaks do very P,?Orly in alkaline soils," Ltlly said. "You' d probably stmggle with such a tree through its entire lifetime. You can compare that with diabetes, which has no cure and which requires constant treatment. In the case of the tree, you' rc constant!) workine the soil. addine iron and other things." Integ rat ed Pest Management and Plant Health Care generally go hand in hand. Both int roduce niltural. physical and biological controls as a way of supplementing chemicals. "Plant Health Call! i'> more holistic. emphasiLing keeping plant> healthy and growi ng in harmony with,. surrounding plants in the landscape," Lilly said . "And. we ' re moving from the concept of ·wntrols' to that of ·managemeRl. ' Thi' may be a 'uhtle difterence in practice. but it\ a bigger one in philosophy."

Pay particular attention to le<tf wilt. discolormion and die-off, plant stress and other unhealthy sy mptoms. "A rborists tend to look for signs of decay, root and limb damage and other risk factors in trees,'' Lilly said. "Rose bushes don't fall on people and kill them ."

Cheney already was helping manage the administration's response to allegations that it twisted intelligence to bolster its case on Iraq when Wilson's allegation - in a New York Times op-ed piece on July 6, 2003 - came into his cross hairs. Cheney told Libby to speak with selected reporters to counter bad news. He developed talking points on the matter for the White House press oftlce. He helped draft a statement by then-CIA Director George Tenet . He mo ved to declassify some intelligence material to bolster the case against Wilson. Cheney even clipped Wilson's column out of the newspapers and scrawled by hand on it: "Have they done this sort of thing before? Send an ambas· sador to answer a question? Do we ordinarily send people out pro bono to work for us? Or did his wife send him on a junket?" Cheney and Libby dis· cussed the matter multiple time.s each day, according to Libby 's grand jury testimony. A former Cheney press aide, Cathie Martin, testified she proposed leak ing some news exclusives but was kept partly in the dark when Cheney ordered Libby to leak part of a classified intelligence report. Later she arranged a lun· cheon for w nservative columnists with Cheney to help bolster the aLiministra- .:ials deliberately leaked her identity. Her job was classified and it is a crime to ~now ing l y disclose classihed mformatton to unauthorized recipients. Libby, 56, is not charged with that. He is charged with lying to the FBI and obstructing a grand jury investigation into the leak of Plame's identity. Libby is the only one charged in the case. Cheney was upset by Wilson's suggestion that his trip was done at the vice president's behest. and that the viceJresident had surely hear his conclusions well before Bush repeated the Niger story in his speech. The CIA later said Wilson's mission was sug- tion 's case. "What didn't he touch'! It 's almost like there was almost nothing too trivial for the vice president to handle," said New York University professor Paul Light. an ex pert in the bureaucracy of the executive branch. "The details suggest Cheney was almost a deputy president with a shadow operation. He had his own source of advice. He had his own source of access. He was making his own decisions," Light said. Wilson had written that he had not discovered any evidence that Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein was seek· ing uranium in Africa. Wilson also asserted that the administration willfully ignored his findings . . Bush mentioned the unsubstantiated Africa. con· nection in his State of the Union address in 2003. The White House and the CIA disavowed the 16-word assertion shortly after Wilson's criticism appeared in print.

Cheney already was helping manage the administration's response to allegations that it twisted intelligence to bolster its case on Iraq when Wilson's allegation - in a New York Times op-ed piece on July 6, 2003 - came into his cross hairs. Cheney told Libby to speak with selected reporters to counter bad news. He developed talking points on the matter for the White House press oftlce. He helped draft a statement by then-CIA Director George Tenet . He mo ved to declassify some intelligence material to bolster the case against Wilson. Cheney even clipped Wilson's column out of the newspapers and scrawled by hand on it: "Have they done this sort of thing before? Send an ambas· sador to answer a question? Do we ordinarily send people out pro bono to work for us? Or did his wife send him on a junket?" Cheney and Libby dis· cussed the matter multiple time.s each day, according to Libby 's grand jury testimony. A former Cheney press aide, Cathie Martin, testified she proposed leak ing some news exclusives but was kept partly in the dark when Cheney ordered Libby to leak part of a classified intelligence report. Later she arranged a lun· cheon for w nservative columnists with Cheney to help bolster the aLiministra- .:ials deliberately leaked her identity. Her job was classified and it is a crime to ~now ing l y disclose classihed mformatton to unauthorized recipients. Libby, 56, is not charged with that. He is charged with lying to the FBI and obstructing a grand jury investigation into the leak of Plame's identity. Libby is the only one charged in the case. Cheney was upset by Wilson's suggestion that his trip was done at the vice president's behest. and that the viceJresident had surely hear his conclusions well before Bush repeated the Niger story in his speech. The CIA later said Wilson's mission was sug- tion 's case. "What didn't he touch'! It 's almost like there was almost nothing too trivial for the vice president to handle," said New York University professor Paul Light. an ex pert in the bureaucracy of the executive branch. "The details suggest Cheney was almost a deputy president with a shadow operation. He had his own source of advice. He had his own source of access. He was making his own decisions," Light said. Wilson had written that he had not discovered any evidence that Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein was seek· ing uranium in Africa. Wilson also asserted that the administration willfully ignored his findings . . Bush mentioned the unsubstantiated Africa. con· nection in his State of the Union address in 2003. The White House and the CIA disavowed the 16-word assertion shortly after Wilson's criticism appeared in print. A week after Wilson's article, his wife's CIA employment was disclosed in a column by Robert Novak, who wrote that two administration officials told him she suggested sending the former ambassador on the trip. The disclosure led to a federal investigation into whether administration offi- ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER MUNICH.

"It is vitally important that the success Afghanistan has· achieved not be allowed to slip away through neglect or lack of political will or resolve," Gates said.

While he did not mention the war m Iraq, Gates told oftlcials at the security conference that Washington must do a better 10b of explaining its polici'es and actions. For the past century, he said, most people believed that "while we might from time to time do something stupid, that we were a force for good in the world.''

Thought for Today: "No man is good enough to govern another man without that other's consent." - Abraham Lincoln (1809- 1865) TODAY IN HISTORY Diana West all the more astonishing that many of the most fearlessly outspoken dissidents to have emerged from the Islamic world are, in fact, women. I have five favorites, most of whom now live in the United States. Rather than simply enjoy Western freedom, however, they have each elected to bear witness, at great personal risk, to what they know. And for all their differences of experience, religion, culture and temperament, a common therrie emerges: terrorism and the attendant dangers to liberal · democracy come out of the founding texts and living traditions of Islam. First comes Bat Ye 'or. the historian of the group, who has spent decades documenting the overlooked histories of non-Muslim peoples, the dhimmi. who hved under repressive Islamic law.

It also signals a sense of urgency to get things tixed fast since they typically have large tinandal stakes in the company, All those factors surely played intn the reinstatement of Mr. Dell, who founded the personal computer company in his dorm room in 1984. He has served as board chairman since he stepped down as CEO in 2004. His successor _ and now predecessor _ Kevin Rollins had a tough run. Under his tenure, the Round Rock. Texa~-based company faced a string of disappointing earnings, while its market share slipped_ it lost its No. 1 position in the PC industry to rival Hewlett-Packard Co. last year. Dell also faces an on~o­ tng federal accounting probe and was just named in a class-action lawsuit that alleges its profits were inllated by secret payments of about $1 billion a year from chip maker Intel Corp. Since topping $50 a share at the height of the dot -com boom, its stock hasn't rallied as high since and today trades below $24 apiece. Clearly, Mr. Dell is trying to assert his control right out of the gate. In an e-mai I sent to employees after takirlg over last week, he said he was quashing bonuses for 2006 and reducing the number of managers to help cut costs. He also noted that Dell would push faster product development and expand into new businesses to drive revenue growth. later amid big losses. sag"We have a tou~h couple ging sales and a · sliding of quarters ahead,' Mr. Dell stock price, Jobs took on an wrote.

HURST AS SOCIATED PRESS WRITER BAGHDAD, Iraq U.S. military officials on Sunday accused the high est levels of the Iranian leadership of arming Shiite militants in Iraq with sophisticated armor-piercing roadside bombs that have killed more than 170 'troops from the Americanled coalition. The military command in Baghdad denied, however. that any newly smuggled Iranian weapons were behind the five U.S . military helicopter crashe s si nce Jan . 20 - four that were shot out of the sky by insurgent gunfire. A fifth crash has tentatively been blamed on mechanical failure. ln the same period, two private sec urity company helicopters also have crashed but the cause was unclear. The deadly and highly sophisticated' weapons the U.S. military said it traced ,to Iran are known as "explosively formed penetrators," or EFPs. The presentation was the result of weeks of preparation and revisions as U.S. officials put together a package of material to support the Bush administration' s claims of Iranian intercession on behalf of militant Iraqis fighting American forces. Senior U.S. military officials in Baghdad said the display was prompted by the military's concern for "force protection." which, they smd, was guaranteed under the United Nations resolution that authorizes American soldiers to be in Iraq. · Three senior military officials who explained the display said the "machining process" used in the construction of the deadly bombs had been traced to Iran. The e~perts, who spoke to a large gatherins of reporters on condition that they not be further Identified, said the supply trail began with Iran's Revolutionary Guards Quds Force, which also is accused of arming the Hezbollah guerrilla army in Lebanon.

Since topping $50 a share at the height of the dot -com boom, its stock hasn't rallied as high since and today trades below $24 apiece.

The Daily Sentinel • Page As ·-U.S. officials allege orders to send more weapons to Iraq come from highest level in Iran BY STEVEN A. HURST AS SOCIATED PRESS WRITER BAGHDAD, Iraq U.S. military officials on Sunday accused the high est levels of the Iranian leadership of arming Shiite militants in Iraq with sophisticated armor-piercing roadside bombs that have killed more than 170 'troops from the Americanled coalition. The military command in Baghdad denied, however. that any newly smuggled Iranian weapons were behind the five U.S . military helicopter crashe s si nce Jan . 20 - four that were shot out of the sky by insurgent gunfire. A fifth crash has tentatively been blamed on mechanical failure. ln the same period, two private sec urity company helicopters also have crashed but the cause was unclear. The deadly and highly sophisticated' weapons the U.S. military said it traced ,to Iran are known as "explosively formed penetrators," or EFPs. The presentation was the result of weeks of preparation and revisions as U.S. officials put together a package of material to support the Bush administration' s claims of Iranian intercession on behalf of militant Iraqis fighting American forces. Senior U.S. military officials in Baghdad said the display was prompted by the military's concern for "force protection." which, they smd, was guaranteed under the United Nations resolution that authorizes American soldiers to be in Iraq. · Three senior military officials who explained the display said the "machining process" used in the construction of the deadly bombs had been traced to Iran. The e~perts, who spoke to a large gatherins of reporters on condition that they not be further Identified, said the supply trail began with Iran's Revolutionary Guards Quds Force, which also is accused of arming the Hezbollah guerrilla army in Lebanon.

He could have usell it on Saturday. With the 7-foot center in foul trouble in a rough-andtumble game, Ron Lewis hit a key driving layup and the third-rankell Buck~:yes closed with an 11 -4 run to hold oil' Purdue 63-56. "(It was) ·basically the same thing : just come at me every time, hold me - I get it all," Oden said after scoring 14 points and adding nine rebounds, two blockell shots and two steals in 21 minutes. ''I'm staning to get used to il." The Buckeyes (22-3, 10-1 Big Ten) were in trouble throughout the second half before Lewis broke a tie at 52-52 with a layup with 3:07 remaining off a long pass from Mike Conley Jr. Ohio State, which won its ninth game in a row and ran its record to 16-0 at home. never trailed again but Purdue threatened right up to the final seconds. The Boilermakers ( 16-9. S-6) did most of their damage when Oden was on the bench. Teams have found that the best way to play against Oden is to get him off the floor. "I would say that's pretty high on the totem pole," Matta said. "Putting us in that situation, getting him on the bench is obviously advantageous for them both offensively and defensively. We've seen a lot of different angles to try and get him in those situations." Oden had two fouls at the half and picked up his third early in the second half. "Sometimes he gets a little frustrated because he 's getting fouled on the other end and not getting calls," said Conley, who was also Oden 's teammate in high school. "They're pushing and shoving him and then when he comes back down the court he 'II do the same thing and he'll get a foul. It's almost unfair sometimes, because they think that he's so big he should be able to get pushed around like that. He gets a little frustrated and he gets a couple of fouls that way."

KUBOTA HAS A NEW WAY TO LOOK AT SAVINGS! Cleveland shows up Lakers BY TOM WITHERS ASSOCIATED PRESS CLEVELAND - LeBron James finally doesn't have to do it all - all the time - for the Cavaliers. James deferred to less-heralded teammate Sasha Pavlovic, who scored 13 of his 21 points in the fourth quarter, and Cleveland clamped down on Kobe Bryant when it mattered most in a 99-IJO .win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday. Pavlovic, a recent spark to Cleveland's offense, finished with 21 points, Zydrunas llgauska> had 17 and Anderson Varejao 12 - II in the fourth - as the Cavaliers followed up a win over Miami on Friday with another solid effort. James had 18 'points, eight rebounds and five assists, but he bowed to Pavlovic and others down the stretch, and Cleveland's supporting cast came through. "I feel like a prophet," >aid James, who has been praising Pavlovic for weeks. "People were looking at me crazy. I've always said that if Sasha gets the opportunity. he is going to be very good. We go against each other in practice and I know what type of. player he is. "He's showing it." James was outscored 25-7 by Bryant after haltiime, but the All-Star forward was rewarded for sharing the ball and still got to crown the Cavaliers' win with a soaring dunk in the final seconds. Bryant scored 36 points to lead the-Lakers. who went 3~ on an eight-~ame swing through the bitterly cold Easl. Bryant scored Los Angeles' llrst 14 points in the llnal period, hut with Larry Hughes guarding him and the Cavs running others at him whenever he touched the ball, he didn't score in the closing 3:39. "According to Kobe. no one else wanted to step up in that sequence." Lakers coach Phil Jackson saiu. "That was something we were looking for : somebody else to try and ge1 going.'' ·· The Lakers led by three points entering the founh but were outscored 35-23 in the final 12 minutes as the Cavaliers, the NBA's worst free-throw >hooting team, got to the line and made 13of-18 attempts. "Our defense pretty much C<lved," Bry<~nl said. "We gave them a lot of easy opportunities at the basket, a lot of free throws. The fourth quaner is when you really want to hold a team down and forc·e them to hit shots not put them at the freethrow line." Vladimir Radmanovi c scored 12 points and Lamar Odom II for the L<~kers, whose bench was outscored 46- 15. James spent the ·nrst 5: 13' of the founh sitting down. but when he checked in, the Cavs led-74-73.

On the Lakers ' next trip, the Cavaliers double teamed Bryant, who had the ball slapped out of his hands by Hughes. Pavlovic picked it up and raced to the other end and was fouled by Parker while making a layup. Pavlovic, averaging 15 points in his last seven games. completed the threepoint play to put the Cavs aheau 91 -!l5. "He made a great deft:nsive play," Bryant said of Hughes . "I was looking to read some of my cutters. try to get guys involveu with the double (team). He made a great play.'"

See Page 81 BY BETH SERG!NT BSERGENT@MYDAILYSEID!NEL.COM POMEROY - Last night Pomeroy Village Council discussed eliminating the !illected position of clerk-treasurer in favor of a village fiscal officer, an appointed position. By appointing a fiscal oftlcer council could set or raise the position's salary on an individual basis with more flexibility in setting job and performance criteria. Some members of council felt the current elected position of clerk-treasurer provides more constraint in these areas. Councilman Shawn Amott brought up the fiscal officer idea after Councilman Pete Bamlmn revisited and supponed a raise for the clerk-treasurer's part-time position which currently pays $19,000 annually. Clerk-Treasurer Kathy Hysell , who estimates she works between 25-30 hours a week at village hall, informed council she'd started a new full-time job yesterday. Hy sell sai~ she may be leaving her p sition with the village due 1 concerns of losing money on her retirement at her current rate of pay. She added she would be working at her clerk's job in the evenings for now. Because Hysell's position is elected she has no set hours to which she must work. According to Hysell the clerk -treasurer's position has had $4,000 in raises in 15 years. Councilwoman Ruth Spaun disagreed with raising the clerk-treasurer's salary. saying it was comparable to the same position in other surrounding villages for the amount of hours Hysell worked. Barnhart and Council woman Mary McAngus disagreed, saying Pomeroy was working with a bigger budget than some surrounding villages. Councilman Jim Sisson was hesitant to raise the salary of the clerk-treasurer~s position due to the fact that if Hysell lost or decided not to run in the next election he was concerned someone less qualified may enter the PleaH HI Po111eroy, AS Meigs High teacher accused in drug offense Nine charged in alleged poaching ring BY BRIAN J.
