NASCAR officials stipulated last week that they didn't consider it proper to penalize driv' ers for expressing their opinions. In a sense, the $10,000 fine assessed· Tony Stewart seemed to contradict that policy, but not technically. · In fact , Stewart was fined and placed on probation until year's end for not expressing his opinion. Stewart's fine was for failing to attend a mandato·, · ry press conference following his runner-up finish in the r~ce at Phoenix Intermitional Race· way on the night of April21. Stewart emerged from an early-morning meeting with NASCAR ' officials to recant virtually every .comme'nt he ·made on his' Sirius Satellite Ra-' dio show on April 24. Among Stewart's contention& was the notion that appearing in such press conferences was somehow an option. Stewart referred to post-race press con· ferences as "a privilege." Later, he admitted he had been wrong. "I do know for a fact (now) that it's at the bottom of the en· try (blank) that it is mandatory to go to the media center. It's not your choice to go," he said, "and in my contract, it does say that I'm obligated to go to the media center.... You guys (the media) have it 100 percent right, and I was 100 p'ercent wrong on that one." · · Stewart's car was excluded from the inspection process until he met with NASCAR offi· cials.

Voinovich, who is the main sponsor in the Senate for re-authorization of the Appalachian Regional Commission, said the "best brains" at the state and federal levels of government and in the energy industry should develop a plan to address the nation's changing energy needs while improving the economy of the Appalachian region.

SERGENT POMEROY - A house bill recently introduced into the Ohio Legislature would ·abolish mayor's court in municipalities of less (han L600. House Bill 154, sponsored by Rep. Larr:Y Wolpert (RHilliard) would also modify the compensations of municipal court judges in territories having a population of more than 50,000. Syracuse Mayor Eric Cunningham said he heard about the bill through the Ohio Municipal League which began notifying their memb1:rs of the threat to mayor's court and the league's concern that small police departments would "go by the wayside" if the bill passed. Under the bill, all of Syracuse's court cases would shift to Meigs County Court with the village receiving SO percent of the fine. Syracuse, with a populatfon of under 500, is a prime · target of the. legislation as are the villages of Rac ine and Rutland in Meigs County. Although income from mayor ' s court fees isn't the only source of income in these small villages, they are a source nonetheless in a time when small municipalities are count· ing eve ry penny. Cunningham ~aid he has contacted Rep. J imniy Stewart (R-Meigs) aboul his concerns and des ire to keep mayor 's court alive in smaller villages like Syracuse . Stewart said since the bill was introduced two weeks ago he has received numerou s calls from people against it without one call of support.

We gave in other ways, including money for preschool every month and paying for vacations. When the second baby was born, we were allowed to baby-sit more often. In fact, once a • week, the little girl stayed with us after school. Not too long ago, we were . at their hou se when our granddaughter . wanted to show me so me photos. Apparently, she pulled out · the wrong album, because I saw several pictures of her dad' s big birthday part y. A lot of family and friend s were there, but obviously, we were not included. · I was so shocked and hurt that I blurted out that her parents were mean not to invite us, and she relayed that remark to her parents. At first, nothing changed. · We continued to take our granddaughter after school. although instead of bringing her home, our son would pick her up. We thought it was consid~rate until I asked why. ,My daughter-in-law then berated us and sai'd we were snoops and not to be trusted in their house. l suggested famil,y counseling, whi ch she refused.

Walks we're a serious problem for the Naps who, in 19 I 5 would become the Indians, to honor Louis Francis Sockaiexis, the first Native American to play in the Major Leagues. Louis had played three seasons with the Cleveland team, then Known as the Spiders. He died on Christmas Eve, 1913, of a heart attack in a logging camp near Bangor, Maine. In 1914, Cleveland pitchers walked over 200 more bat. ters than any other American League team. ' Cleveland had an interesting team in 1914, what with Shoeiess Joe Jackson, Nap Lajoie, Jack Graney, Steve O'Neil and Roy Chapman on it. Shoeiess Joe lost the batting title late in 1914 to Ty Cobb again. Nap Lojoie, now a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame, played for Cleveland for nearly 20 years and was at the end of his distinguished career. Jack Graney later teamed with Jimmy Dudley io announce Indian games. Steve O' Neil would eventually become part owner of the Indians and Roy Chapman was the only player ever to killed by a pitched bali.

Nap pitcher musses up game after Cleveland had lead over the Tigers." The piece went on to say. that Harley "Lefty" Dillinger had a 5-3 lead ·over Detroit heading into the bottom of the ninth inning. He had pitched the entire ·game in a masterful fashion even shutting down Ty C<pbb without a hit. But he walked Dubuc and Bush. Ossie Vitt laid down a sacrifice bunt that no one could get to and the bases were loaded. Up came Cobb who hit a ball back to Dillinger, but the 19 year old, out of Rio Grande college, booted the ball and one run came home . Dillinger then threw a wild pitch that allowed the tying run to score. Sam Crawford singled to bring in the winning run. It was the last game that Dillinger ever pitched in the big leagues. He played about six weeks for Cleveland after being called up from Galion of the Central Ohio League. He pitched in II games with a 4.54 ERA. His big downside was that he had walked 25 batters in about 34 innings while striking out only II. In high school and college, Harley Dillinger f.)

Walks we're a serious problem for the Naps who, in 19 I 5 would become the Indians, to honor Louis Francis Sockaiexis, the first Native American to play in the Major Leagues. Louis had played three seasons with the Cleveland team, then Known as the Spiders. He died on Christmas Eve, 1913, of a heart attack in a logging camp near Bangor, Maine. In 1914, Cleveland pitchers walked over 200 more bat. ters than any other American League team. ' Cleveland had an interesting team in 1914, what with Shoeiess Joe Jackson, Nap Lajoie, Jack Graney, Steve O'Neil and Roy Chapman on it. Shoeiess Joe lost the batting title late in 1914 to Ty Cobb again. Nap Lojoie, now a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame, played for Cleveland for nearly 20 years and was at the end of his distinguished career. Jack Graney later teamed with Jimmy Dudley io announce Indian games. Steve O' Neil would eventually become part owner of the Indians and Roy Chapman was the only player ever to killed by a pitched bali.

Nap pitcher musses up game after Cleveland had lead over the Tigers." The piece went on to say. that Harley "Lefty" Dillinger had a 5-3 lead ·over Detroit heading into the bottom of the ninth inning. He had pitched the entire ·game in a masterful fashion even shutting down Ty C<pbb without a hit. But he walked Dubuc and Bush. Ossie Vitt laid down a sacrifice bunt that no one could get to and the bases were loaded. Up came Cobb who hit a ball back to Dillinger, but the 19 year old, out of Rio Grande college, booted the ball and one run came home . Dillinger then threw a wild pitch that allowed the tying run to score. Sam Crawford singled to bring in the winning run. It was the last game that Dillinger ever pitched in the big leagues. He played about six weeks for Cleveland after being called up from Galion of the Central Ohio League. He pitched in II games with a 4.54 ERA. His big downside was that he had walked 25 batters in about 34 innings while striking out only II. In high school and college, Harley Dillinger f.)

MEXICO CITY - An Ohio labor rights group that helps Mexicans seeking temporary work visas in the U.S. asked Mexico's federal government for support Thursday because an employee was killed last month at its offices in northern Mexico. The body of Santiago Rafael Cruz was found April ·' 9 at the Mmiterrey office of the Farm Labor Organizing Committee, a Toledo-based union that·fights for the rights of migrant guest workers in the eastern United States. The killing has prompted staff members in Mexico to scale back their activities for fear of attacks, said Castro Benavides, head of the office, at a news conference in Mexicq City. The Nuevo Leon state prosecutor's office has reported no arrests or leads in the case. A spokesman there was not available for comri:tent. Baldemar Velasquez, secretary-general of the rights group, said that there had been an "atmospbere of animosity against us" since the Melcico office opened in 2005 and began fighnng abuses by Melcican recruiters who often overcharge migrants to process temporary visas. Union officials·· believe. th.e ~i lling was not a rob- bery because nothing was missing. :rhey suspect Cruz's death was related to the union 's work. The union asked the federal government to provide it with satellite phones for trips to meet migrants in remote areas and for a closed video circuit to monitor who comes and goes from the office. They also want feder~ al authorities to pressure state officials to do more in investigating the homicide.

MEXICO CITY - An Ohio labor rights group that helps Mexicans seeking temporary work visas in the U.S. asked Mexico's federal government for support Thursday because an employee was killed last month at its offices in northern Mexico. The body of Santiago Rafael Cruz was found April ·' 9 at the Mmiterrey office of the Farm Labor Organizing Committee, a Toledo-based union that·fights for the rights of migrant guest workers in the eastern United States. The killing has prompted staff members in Mexico to scale back their activities for fear of attacks, said Castro Benavides, head of the office, at a news conference in Mexicq City. The Nuevo Leon state prosecutor's office has reported no arrests or leads in the case. A spokesman there was not available for comri:tent. Baldemar Velasquez, secretary-general of the rights group, said that there had been an "atmospbere of animosity against us" since the Melcico office opened in 2005 and began fighnng abuses by Melcican recruiters who often overcharge migrants to process temporary visas. Union officials·· believe. th.e ~i lling was not a rob- bery because nothing was missing. :rhey suspect Cruz's death was related to the union 's work. The union asked the federal government to provide it with satellite phones for trips to meet migrants in remote areas and for a closed video circuit to monitor who comes and goes from the office. They also want feder~ al authorities to pressure state officials to do more in investigating the homicide.

Most butterflies on display at other exhibits come from farms in Costa Rica, Malaysia and the Philippines, · Boender doesn't think the expanding number of butterfly attractions has been entirely positive. "Everybody sees it as a fast buck," he said. "I don't mind if they're ftrst-class exhibits. There are some good ones. There are a lot of poor ones." Weissmann, who is consulting on about a dozen new exhibits this year, said · roos are looking beyond the traditional crowd pleasers - such as elephants and polar bears - to educate visitors about habitat and species conservation. "A huge portion of ani- mals are underrepresented in zoos," he said. "Butterflies are great ambassadors to teach about the rain forest. "You get more bug for the buck too," Weissmann said. Butterflies, he said, are less expensive to acquirl' and feed, although year-round exhibits do require heat to keep them around 80 degrees, or the butterflies won't fly. "I don't think you get into this business thinking you're going to make a windfall," · said Duke Wheeler, who seven years ago opened the Butterfly House near Toledo.

The bright ones appear cheerful and gentle while the dark ones look almost spooky. Some visitors simply sit on benches, waiting for the butterflies to settle near them. Occasionally, butterflies will land on an outstreched arm or the top of someone' s head. The Butterfly House doesn't allow visitors to . reach out and touch the insects because they say it could shorten their life span, which lasts only about three or four weeks. Employees also warn guests to watch where they step as the butterflies tend to land on the concrete floor. As they flutter around it's easy to forget about everything else. Butterflies, Wheeler said, have a spiritual quality. "They're the perfect creature," he said. · "They're frail. We're all frail."
