Baker recently gave council and Mayor April Burke even more good news about the general fund, sayihg from Jan. I to June 30, the village took in $25,000 from property taxes, levy money and court fines but only spent out $14.000 which shows village spending is moving in the righ\ directiOn to eliminate the deficit. ' Baker also told council there is $61,310 in the village -checking account though that is not necessarily "good" because of the number of village funds with negative balances . Baker said in reality the village is spending that chunk of money where it's needed as opposed to the funds it is appropriated to, a practice nor11111lly forbidden by the state. However, the state is allowing Rutland to do this on a temporary basis to avoid being in fiscal emergency. Without granting thi s l;emporary use of spending the village would come to a halt, including shutting down the village water and sewer systems. Baker said she has regular contact with personnel from the Ohio Auditor of State's Office to monitor the situation and evaluate what steps are being taken to bring the village out of debt: Baker said the fact the village took in more money than it spent will likely bode well for auditors. In addition to the state of the general fund, also discussed at the most recent meeting of Rutland Village Council was the street fund which brought in $9,737 in revenue due to the state excise tax but had 14,000 in expenditures.

Millions of fans are holding their breath. Meanwhile, his creator is baking a cake - and keeping her secret. On Saturday, readers around the globe will learn the schoolboy wizard's fate with the publication of "f;l arry Potter and the Deathly· Hallows," the sevent~ and final book in J.K. · Rowling's fantasy series. Will Harry defeat his evil nemesis, Lord Voldemort, and restore order to the wizarding world? Will he die in the attempt, as many fans fear·- and as Row ling, an expert narrative tease, has hinted? "Harry's story comes to a definite end in book seven," is all she will say a few days before publication, serving up tea and homebaked sponge cake in her comfortable Edinburgh house. Writing the final words of the saga felt,"like a bereavement." That sounds ominously final. So have we really seen the last of the staff and students of . Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry? "Because the world is so big, there would be room to do other stuff," Row ling says carefully. "I am not · planning to do that, but I'm not going to say I'm never going to do it." · Rawling (her name rhymes · with bowling, rather than howling), looking relaxed in jeans .and a sweater, shoulder-length blonde hair stylishly cut, has wildly mixed emotions at leaving behind the character she conjured up during a train journey across 'England in 1990: a neglected, bespectacled orphan who learns on his 11th birthday that he is a wizard. , She's enjoying the absence of pressure from publishers and fans clarnormg for the next installment in Harry's adventures. And she's reveling in the chance to focus on normal life with her husband and three children. But after finishing the last book, "I felt terrible for a week." · "The first two daY.S in particular, it was ltke a bereavement, even though I was pleased with the book. And then after a week that cloud lifted and I felt quite lighthearted, quite liberated," she says. · . "Finishing is emotional because the books have been so wrapped up with my life. It's almost impossible not to finish and look back to where I was when I started." It has been an extraordi1\ary journey. When · Row ling created Harry Potter, she was a struggling single mother, writing in cafes to save on the heating bill at home. Now, at 41, she is the richest woman in Britain - worth $1 billion, according to Forbes magazine - with houses in Edinburgh, London and the Scottish countryside. Her first bQok, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone," was published in 1997, with a print run of less than I ,000. Rawling's publisher sug,gested she use gender-neutral initials rather than her first name, Joanne, to give the book a better chance with boys. Lacking a middle name, she took the K from her paternal grandmother, Kathleen. By the time the book appeared in the United States in 1998 - as "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" - Harry was on his way to becoming a publishing phenomenon . The six Potter books have sold some 325 million copies. in 64 langua~es, mcludmg Latm and Anc1ent Greek. "Deathly Hallows" has an initial print run of 12 million in the United States alone; more than 2 million copies have. been ordered •.

After producing a book a year between 19.97 and 2000, Rowling took a break. There was a threeyear gap between the fourth book, "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire," and "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," published in 2003. During the gap, . Rowling met an'd married Neil Murray, a Scottish doctor. They live in Edinburgh with their children David, 4, and Mackenzie, 2, as' well as Jessica, Rowling's daughter from her first marriage to a Portuguese journalist. Rowling now seems reconciled to her success. She says she lives a normal life and is rarely recognized in the street, although her graystone town house on a tree-lined street is protected by an 8-foot stone wall and iron security gates. Like the neighborhood- a leafy literary enclave that's also home to crime novelist Ian Rankin and "No. I Ladies~ Detective Agency" writer Alexander McCall Smith - the house exudes solid affluence, rather .than extravagance. The modestly sized lawn holds a soccer net and a colorful plastic jumble of cliildren 's toys. In the tidy family room, are crowded bookshelves, an aquarium, photo albums and board games - the trappings of any middle-class family's life. Rowling · predicts that some of Harry's fans will dislike "Deathly Hallows." But she is proud of it. ''The, final book is what it was always supposed to be, and so I feel very at peace with '!hat fact," she says. As for the future, she sa~s she has no plans.

Millions of fans are holding their breath. Meanwhile, his creator is baking a cake - and keeping her secret. On Saturday, readers around the globe will learn the schoolboy wizard's fate with the publication of "f;l arry Potter and the Deathly· Hallows," the sevent~ and final book in J.K. · Rowling's fantasy series. Will Harry defeat his evil nemesis, Lord Voldemort, and restore order to the wizarding world? Will he die in the attempt, as many fans fear·- and as Row ling, an expert narrative tease, has hinted? "Harry's story comes to a definite end in book seven," is all she will say a few days before publication, serving up tea and homebaked sponge cake in her comfortable Edinburgh house. Writing the final words of the saga felt,"like a bereavement." That sounds ominously final. So have we really seen the last of the staff and students of . Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry? "Because the world is so big, there would be room to do other stuff," Row ling says carefully. "I am not · planning to do that, but I'm not going to say I'm never going to do it." · Rawling (her name rhymes · with bowling, rather than howling), looking relaxed in jeans .and a sweater, shoulder-length blonde hair stylishly cut, has wildly mixed emotions at leaving behind the character she conjured up during a train journey across 'England in 1990: a neglected, bespectacled orphan who learns on his 11th birthday that he is a wizard. , She's enjoying the absence of pressure from publishers and fans clarnormg for the next installment in Harry's adventures. And she's reveling in the chance to focus on normal life with her husband and three children. But after finishing the last book, "I felt terrible for a week." · "The first two daY.S in particular, it was ltke a bereavement, even though I was pleased with the book. And then after a week that cloud lifted and I felt quite lighthearted, quite liberated," she says. · . "Finishing is emotional because the books have been so wrapped up with my life. It's almost impossible not to finish and look back to where I was when I started." It has been an extraordi1\ary journey. When · Row ling created Harry Potter, she was a struggling single mother, writing in cafes to save on the heating bill at home. Now, at 41, she is the richest woman in Britain - worth $1 billion, according to Forbes magazine - with houses in Edinburgh, London and the Scottish countryside. Her first bQok, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone," was published in 1997, with a print run of less than I ,000. Rawling's publisher sug,gested she use gender-neutral initials rather than her first name, Joanne, to give the book a better chance with boys. Lacking a middle name, she took the K from her paternal grandmother, Kathleen. By the time the book appeared in the United States in 1998 - as "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" - Harry was on his way to becoming a publishing phenomenon . The six Potter books have sold some 325 million copies. in 64 langua~es, mcludmg Latm and Anc1ent Greek. "Deathly Hallows" has an initial print run of 12 million in the United States alone; more than 2 million copies have. been ordered •.

Only I knew · what it was like to be generating this world as it became bigger and bigger and bigger and more and more people were invested in it. After producing a book a year between 19.97 and 2000, Rowling took a break. There was a threeyear gap between the fourth book, "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire," and "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," published in 2003. During the gap, . Rowling met an'd married Neil Murray, a Scottish doctor. They live in Edinburgh with their children David, 4, and Mackenzie, 2, as' well as Jessica, Rowling's daughter from her first marriage to a Portuguese journalist. Rowling now seems reconciled to her success. She says she lives a normal life and is rarely recognized in the street, although her graystone town house on a tree-lined street is protected by an 8-foot stone wall and iron security gates. Like the neighborhood- a leafy literary enclave that's also home to crime novelist Ian Rankin and "No. I Ladies~ Detective Agency" writer Alexander McCall Smith - the house exudes solid affluence, rather .than extravagance. The modestly sized lawn holds a soccer net and a colorful plastic jumble of cliildren 's toys. In the tidy family room, are crowded bookshelves, an aquarium, photo albums and board games - the trappings of any middle-class family's life. Rowling · predicts that some of Harry's fans will dislike "Deathly Hallows." But she is proud of it. ''The, final book is what it was always supposed to be, and so I feel very at peace with '!hat fact," she says. As for the future, she sa~s she has no plans.

She loudly chastises me in front of everyone when she feels I haven ' t provided these things. We hold the normal family celebrations, and everyone is always invited. My daughter has repeatedly asked the entire family to come to bet house anytime, but she lives 30 minutes away and they think it's too far, even though they often travel farther to see other family members.

The virus dido 't hurt cell phones, but would eyewitnesses confirmed this - cause users to drop dead. The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority ~as forced to issue a denial telling users that it was safe to turn their phones back on. Then there were messages claiming that l smeli trucks were carrying a million HIV-infected melons to Arab consumers in a new biological -warfare plot. This was not to be confused with other urban legends about a "Western-Zionist conspiracy" to use polio vaccines and other medical means to sterilize the nel\1 generation of Muslims. "The contemporary Muslim fascination for conspiracy theories often limits the capacity for rational discussion of international affairs," argued Husain Haqqani of Boston University, at a conference in Istanbul titled Fact vs. Rumor: Journalism in the 21st Century. This recent gathering of journalists and scholars was organized by my colleagues at the Oxford Centre for Religion and Public Life.

On this date: In 1810, Colombia declared independence from Spain. In 1861 , the Congress of the Confederate States began holding sessions in Richmond, Va. In 1871, British Columbia entered Confederation as a Canadian province. In 1917, the draft lottery in World War I went into operation. In 1944, President Franklin Roosevelt was nominated for an unprecedented fourth term of office at the Democrati~ convention in Chicago. · In 1976, America's Viking I robot spacecraft made a successful, first-ever landing on Mars. In 1977, a flash flood hit Johnstown, Pa., killing more than 80 people and causing $350 million in damage. In 1977, the U.N. Security Council voted to admit Vietnam to the world body.

Fear Allah, and (always) say a word directed to the Truth.' And one of the sayings attribute,d to Prophet Muhammad ... specifically forbids rumor-mongering: 'It is enough to establish someone as a liar that he spreads what he hears without confirming its veracity."' Nevertheless, these rumors roll on, creating a cycle of fear and bigotry. The result is a climate of confusion and cynicism that prepares millions of people to believe the next round of rumors, often with violent consequences in an age in which ancient prejudices and modern technology merge seamiessiy. The results· can be seen in recent WorldPublicOpinion.org surveys in Egypt, Morocco, Pakistan and Indonesia, said Haqqani, who is an active Muslim- As a rule, participants . had positive attitudes about globalization, freedom of religion and democracy. Yet roughly three out of fow: surveyed said that Muslim ;lions should strictly enfoo:e Sharia. or Islamic, law as part of effons to reject sinful ."Western values." Large majorities afftrmed the belief that the United States is trying to "weaken and divide" the Muslim world and slightly smaller majorities said America's goal is to "spread Christianity in the region." The impact of the rumors can, perhaps, be seen in another paradox seen in these surveys, said Haqqani. Large majorities in Egypt, Indonesia and Morocco (results were mixed in Pakistan) agrec:d that violent groups that kill civilians are guilty of violating the "principles of Islam." However, less than a quarter of those. polled believed that Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda were responsible for the Sept. 11 attacks. "Many Muslims seem to believe that 9/11 was a great achievement, but that Osama didn't do it," he said. "They are confused by all the rumors." Leaders in the West must understand that almost half of the world's Muslim population is illiterate. Meanwhile, the 57 Organization of the Islamic Conference nations contain about 500 colleges and uni· versities, compared with more than 5,000 in the United States and 8,000 in India.

Yet this painful fact is not the only source of this predisposition to embrace conspiracy theories , said Haqqani. After all, the digital consumers who use their cell phones to spread ridiculous text messages are not illiterate. "What we ·are seeing is not just a crisis rooted only in religion or education," said Haqqani. "This is a culture-wide crisis of politics and economics and technology and education, and it is easy to see the role of religion because of the powerful role that faith plays in the lives of millions of people. , "The greatest fear of most Muslims is that their societies will be over run by the Western world. ... They believe that modernity equals Westernization, equals Westernization promiscuity and licentiousness, and all of that equals a loss of faith . We cannot change that overnight, It is a project of a century or more, in which millions of people must learn that the modern world is built on values, laws and tolerance, not just highways, airplanes and cell phones."

The virus dido 't hurt cell phones, but would eyewitnesses confirmed this - cause users to drop dead. The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority ~as forced to issue a denial telling users that it was safe to turn their phones back on. Then there were messages claiming that l smeli trucks were carrying a million HIV-infected melons to Arab consumers in a new biological -warfare plot. This was not to be confused with other urban legends about a "Western-Zionist conspiracy" to use polio vaccines and other medical means to sterilize the nel\1 generation of Muslims. "The contemporary Muslim fascination for conspiracy theories often limits the capacity for rational discussion of international affairs," argued Husain Haqqani of Boston University, at a conference in Istanbul titled Fact vs. Rumor: Journalism in the 21st Century. This recent gathering of journalists and scholars was organized by my colleagues at the Oxford Centre for Religion and Public Life. Haqqani stressed that the "Muslim world's willingness to believe rumors is not Today is Friday, July 20, the 20 I st day of 2007. There are 164 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On July 20, 1969, Apollo II astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin became the first men to walk on the moon as they stepped out of their lunar module. On this date: In 1810, Colombia declared independence from Spain. In 1861 , the Congress of the Confederate States began holding sessions in Richmond, Va. In 1871, British Columbia entered Confederation as a Canadian province. In 1917, the draft lottery in World War I went into operation. In 1944, President Franklin Roosevelt was nominated for an unprecedented fourth term of office at the Democrati~ convention in Chicago. · In 1976, America's Viking I robot spacecraft made a successful, first-ever landing on Mars. In 1977, a flash flood hit Johnstown, Pa., killing more than 80 people and causing $350 million in damage. In 1977, the U.N. Security Council voted to admit Vietnam to the world body. In I 982, Irish Republican Army bombs exploded in two London parks, killing eight British soldiers, along with seven horses belonging to the Queen's Household Cavalry.

PageA4 Terry MaHingiy a function of the Islamic religion. Like other Abrahamic faiths, Islam emphasizes truth.,.and righteousness. The Koran says: ' 0 ye who believe! Fear Allah, and (always) say a word directed to the Truth.' And one of the sayings attribute,d to Prophet Muhammad ... specifically forbids rumor-mongering: 'It is enough to establish someone as a liar that he spreads what he hears without confirming its veracity."' Nevertheless, these rumors roll on, creating a cycle of fear and bigotry. The result is a climate of confusion and cynicism that prepares millions of people to believe the next round of rumors, often with violent consequences in an age in which ancient prejudices and modern technology merge seamiessiy. The results· can be seen in recent WorldPublicOpinion.org surveys in Egypt, Morocco, Pakistan and Indonesia, said Haqqani, who is an active Muslim- As a rule, participants . had positive attitudes about globalization, freedom of religion and democracy. Yet roughly three out of fow: surveyed said that Muslim ;lions should strictly enfoo:e Sharia. or Islamic, law as part of effons to reject sinful ."Western values." Large majorities afftrmed the belief that the United States is trying to "weaken and divide" the Muslim world and slightly smaller majorities said America's goal is to "spread Christianity in the region." The impact of the rumors can, perhaps, be seen in another paradox seen in these surveys, said Haqqani. Large majorities in Egypt, Indonesia and Morocco (results were mixed in Pakistan) agrec:d that violent groups that kill civilians are guilty of violating the "principles of Islam." However, less than a quarter of those. polled believed that Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda were responsible for the Sept. 11 attacks. "Many Muslims seem to believe that 9/11 was a great achievement, but that Osama didn't do it," he said. "They are confused by all the rumors." Leaders in the West must understand that almost half of the world's Muslim population is illiterate. Meanwhile, the 57 Organization of the Islamic Conference nations contain about 500 colleges and uni· versities, compared with more than 5,000 in the United States and 8,000 in India.

Yet this painful fact is not the only source of this predisposition to embrace conspiracy theories , said Haqqani. After all, the digital consumers who use their cell phones to spread ridiculous text messages are not illiterate. "What we ·are seeing is not just a crisis rooted only in religion or education," said Haqqani. "This is a culture-wide crisis of politics and economics and technology and education, and it is easy to see the role of religion because of the powerful role that faith plays in the lives of millions of people. , "The greatest fear of most Muslims is that their societies will be over run by the Western world. ... They believe that modernity equals Westernization, equals Westernization promiscuity and licentiousness, and all of that equals a loss of faith . We cannot change that overnight, It is a project of a century or more, in which millions of people must learn that the modern world is built on values, laws and tolerance, not just highways, airplanes and cell phones."

I '}t"" "' "" ~ > �, RELIGION A Hunger For More The Daily Sentinel Friday, July 20, 2007 Harry Potter's End?' By the time this column is publi shed , no doubt some people will have already devoured the seventh Harry Potter book . For them, this is the most important event in their lives. More important than the war in Iraq. More important thai\ who'll be elected next U.S. president. Maybe even more important than what's for dinner tonight! Granted, many of these devoted fans are too young to fully comprehend the importance of real world events. Hogwarts seems much more real than the Middle East or even our own Tri-counties . But there are others who are old enough to know better. So what gives with Harry Potter? How has a work of fiction become such an important part of our culture so quickly? I read the first five Potter books and watched the first three movies. I enjoyed them on their own terms. l grew up reading fantasy and science fiction novels. Anne McCaffrey, Robert Heinlein and C.S. Lewis are some of my favorite authors - but they have not affected the general culture as J.K. Rowling has . Lewis' Narnia stories are now getting more attention thanks to the Lion, Witch and Wardrobe movie released in 2005, but his books were first written a half-century ago. Perhaps part of the Potter saga's appeal is its seeming reality in the midst of fantasy. We identify with Harry's conflicted ·emotions, the loyalty of his frieil.ds, the aloof but everwatchful presence of his professors. We commiser.ate with his experience with the Dursleys. And we fear/loath/enjoy the climactic showdowns with Lord Voldemort. All of this drama is wonderful and appropriate as long as we keep things in context. After all , this is just FICTION!!! I am embarrassed by some Christian leaders who think Harry ~otter is the worst attack on Christianity since Jesus was hung on the cross. Many have made the Potter story out to be Satan incarnate - drawing our gullible culture into a perverse love affair with wizardry and witchcraft. But there is a huge difference between the fictional world of PageA6 Pastor Kerry Wood Harry · Potter and the ·real world in which Chri st died for us. There are much more important issues for Christians than Harry Potter. The conflict with radical Islamic forces, the spread of nuclear warfare technologies, the corruption and greed in corporate boardrooms, the moral failings associated with extramarital sexuality, addictions to drugs, alcohol, pornography - I could go on and on. But the real point of life isn't to draw up lists of do's and don'ts. Jesus tells us what is truly Important m Luke 6:45 : "The ~ood man brings good thmgs out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings up evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart, his mouth speaks." ·I don't know how Harry Potter's story ends, )'et. I do know how Jesus story ends, even though we ha:ve yet to experience its completion. Out of the goodness of Jesus' heart, we have new life and a new opportunity to become God's people. The same goodness of Jesus can be ours - all we have to do is ask for it! The next time you're faced with a moral dilemma, remember how Jesus gives you the ability to make the right choice. Remember how Christ bore the pain of the cross the next time you feel the pain of illness, disease or a broken relationship. And best of all, Jesus doesn' t need a wand, a jinx, or counter-curse to save you from evil. He simply rose from a tomb and said, "Surely l am with you always, to the very end of the age." (Matthew 28:20) Not even Harry Potter can match that! Kerry Wood is the pastor of Racine United Methodist Church, 818 Elm Street in Racine. Sunday worship is at 11 a.m. Pastor Kerry can be reached at racineumc@ suddenlink.net Prophets of the Bible were people with whom it was probably rather difficult io get along. Many teachers and scholars paint the picture of such men as having rough personalities, not quite interested in being tactful or polite in even rudimentary ways. Maybe they're right. On the other hand, it may well be that such men weren't especially coarse or ill-tempered, but were perhaps simply "speakers of truth" in an age when everyone was pretty much open to any lie that tickled their ears. The funny thing about. truth, of course, ·is that no one objects to its being shared just as long as it's aimed at someone else's situation and away from our own. It generally doesn't even matter if the truth is the only thing standing between us and our own destruction; the path more .readily taken is the one that most easily placates our pride and appeases our appetites. But there you are. "There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death" (Proverbs 16:25 NIV). So, when Elijah, for example, is sent by the Lord to confront the lie that you can follow God and still dabble in other religions and practices that God had expressly forbidden, it's no wonder that he is accused of being a "troublemaker" (I Kings 18: 17). "How long," demands Elijah, "will you go limping with two different opinions? If the LORD is God, follow Him; but if Baal, then follow him" (1 Kings 18:21 RSV) . All too clear is the fact of our own spiritual crippling today, as we limp from one false god to another, wavering between idols that are obvious and some that are perhaps a bit more subtle. And 11 seems all too likely that most folks don't know enough of the Scriptures to be able to tell when they're heading in the wrong direction or even just sitting on the fence' On the one hand, we'll say, "God is worthy of our worsrup." On the other, we look to things to make us happy, successful, or give us a longed-for sense of purpose and worth. But when we do so, how can we say that we are loving God with all our heart, soul, mind, and body (Deuteronomy 6:5, Matthew 22:37, Mark 12:30, and Luke 10:27) and still climb hand-over-fist up the ladder of success? Or remain driven to win-at-all-costs at sports? Or strive to get as much money as possible ? Or allow ungodly influences to come into our homes? It doesn't work that way. If other persons, other things, or other "gods" are what we should strive towards, then why bother with God at all? But if God is the One ON Whom we should set our affections, TO Whom we should turn for help and guidance, and FOR Whom we should live our lives, then why set above Him anything else? Why Pastor Thom Mollohan water down the best with phony promises for happiness? Joshua exhorted the peopie that , he had led for decades, "Now fear the LORD and serve Him with all faithfulness. Throw away the gods your forefathers worshiped .. . and serve the LORD. But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve ... But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD" (Joshua 24:14-15 NIV). Such admonitions may sting· a bit when you hear them, pricking your sense of propriety or causing rii?ples m your pools of plactdity. But before you get mad, remember that God is in the business of truth and His truth both sets free and gives life. If there arc things in your life that hinder your coming to know Him personally as Lord and Savior, then He wants to move them · out of the way. If there are things there that limit your capacity to build up "!reasores in heaven," by enticing . you with short-lived fancies of the flesh, _He wants to boot those thmgs out! If ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - James Randi has escaped from a locked coffin submerged in the sea, and from a straitjacket dangling over Niagara Falls. If you chose a word from a 200page book, he.could guess it. Pick an object, he' d make it fade from sight. He gave up performing as The Amazing Randi years ago, hut his words to the audience at the end of each show foreshadowed his next act. "Everythin~ you have seen here is tricks, ' he would say. "There is nothing supernalural involved here. I hope you'll accept my word for that. Thank you and good evening." · For more than two decades, Randi has been the country's skeptic-in-chief, .aiming his arrow of rationalism at psychics and faith healers, mediums and mentalists. He finds his targets so preposterous and those falhng for them so desperate that he has become obsessed. "It's important," he says, "because any misinformation like this _ of people claiming . they can subvert nature, they can do real miracles and they want to be paid for it ... that's a very negative influence on society." Toronto-born Randall James Hamilton Zwinge's career as a magician and escape artist came after he dropped out of high school and left home to join the carnival. His stage routine gave way to a nagging need to speak out · against those whose work he regarded as nonsense _ not just people who read palms and minds. He also took aim at chiropraetors, homeopaths and others. Randi's "coming out" as a skeptic essentially arrived on a 1972 episode of "The Tonight Show" _ he helped Johnny Carson ~et up Uri Geller, the Israeh performer who claimed to bend spoons w1th h1s mmd. Rand1 ensured the spoons and other pro~s were kept from Geller s hands until showtirne 10 prevent tampering. The result was agonizing 22 minutes in which Geller was unable to perform any tricks. In the years since, he has garnered a prestigiou s MacArthur fellowship , established his namesake James Randi Educational Foundation and become an there are things that you're toleratin~ in yourself or in your CU'c umstances that somehow spoil the eternal fruit that could be reaped from your life in order to help bring others to Him, rest assured that He'd like enough elbow-room in your heart to prune those things back. The truth might hurt, it might eve11 hurt a lot, but the truth sets us free (see John 8:3l c32). Just imagine people who have a disease, but prefer to deny the fact and run from the only remedy. This is exactly what we often do. What we NEED to do is to read God's Word and learn God's will . As we do so, and as He uses the truth of it to work in our lives, let's not shy away from what He reveals to us. "The holy Scriptures (the Bible) ... are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Je~us . All Scripture is God-breathed and is· useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work" (2 Timothy 3:15b-17 NIV).

By the time this column is publi shed , no doubt some people will have already devoured the seventh Harry Potter book . For them, this is the most important event in their lives. More important than the war in Iraq. More important thai\ who'll be elected next U.S. president. Maybe even more important than what's for dinner tonight! Granted, many of these devoted fans are too young to fully comprehend the importance of real world events. Hogwarts seems much more real than the Middle East or even our own Tri-counties . But there are others who are old enough to know better. So what gives with Harry Potter? How has a work of fiction become such an important part of our culture so quickly? I read the first five Potter books and watched the first three movies. I enjoyed them on their own terms. l grew up reading fantasy and science fiction novels. Anne McCaffrey, Robert Heinlein and C.S. Lewis are some of my favorite authors - but they have not affected the general culture as J.K. Rowling has . Lewis' Narnia stories are now getting more attention thanks to the Lion, Witch and Wardrobe movie released in 2005, but his books were first written a half-century ago. Perhaps part of the Potter saga's appeal is its seeming reality in the midst of fantasy. We identify with Harry's conflicted ·emotions, the loyalty of his frieil.ds, the aloof but everwatchful presence of his professors. We commiser.ate with his experience with the Dursleys. And we fear/loath/enjoy the climactic showdowns with Lord Voldemort. All of this drama is wonderful and appropriate as long as we keep things in context. After all , this is just FICTION!!! I am embarrassed by some Christian leaders who think Harry ~otter is the worst attack on Christianity since Jesus was hung on the cross. Many have made the Potter story out to be Satan incarnate - drawing our gullible culture into a perverse love affair with wizardry and witchcraft. But there is a huge difference between the fictional world of PageA6 Pastor Kerry Wood Harry · Potter and the ·real world in which Chri st died for us. There are much more important issues for Christians than Harry Potter. The conflict with radical Islamic forces, the spread of nuclear warfare technologies, the corruption and greed in corporate boardrooms, the moral failings associated with extramarital sexuality, addictions to drugs, alcohol, pornography - I could go on and on. But the real point of life isn't to draw up lists of do's and don'ts. Jesus tells us what is truly Important m Luke 6:45 : "The ~ood man brings good thmgs out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings up evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart, his mouth speaks." ·I don't know how Harry Potter's story ends, )'et. I do know how Jesus story ends, even though we ha:ve yet to experience its completion. Out of the goodness of Jesus' heart, we have new life and a new opportunity to become God's people. The same goodness of Jesus can be ours - all we have to do is ask for it! The next time you're faced with a moral dilemma, remember how Jesus gives you the ability to make the right choice. Remember how Christ bore the pain of the cross the next time you feel the pain of illness, disease or a broken relationship. And best of all, Jesus doesn' t need a wand, a jinx, or counter-curse to save you from evil. He simply rose from a tomb and said, "Surely l am with you always, to the very end of the age." (Matthew 28:20) Not even Harry Potter can match that! Kerry Wood is the pastor of Racine United Methodist Church, 818 Elm Street in Racine. Sunday worship is at 11 a.m. Pastor Kerry can be reached at racineumc@ suddenlink.net Prophets of the Bible were people with whom it was probably rather difficult io get along. Many teachers and scholars paint the picture of such men as having rough personalities, not quite interested in being tactful or polite in even rudimentary ways. Maybe they're right. On the other hand, it may well be that such men weren't especially coarse or ill-tempered, but were perhaps simply "speakers of truth" in an age when everyone was pretty much open to any lie that tickled their ears. The funny thing about. truth, of course, ·is that no one objects to its being shared just as long as it's aimed at someone else's situation and away from our own. It generally doesn't even matter if the truth is the only thing standing between us and our own destruction; the path more .readily taken is the one that most easily placates our pride and appeases our appetites. But there you are. "There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death" (Proverbs 16:25 NIV). So, when Elijah, for example, is sent by the Lord to confront the lie that you can follow God and still dabble in other religions and practices that God had expressly forbidden, it's no wonder that he is accused of being a "troublemaker" (I Kings 18: 17). "How long," demands Elijah, "will you go limping with two different opinions? If the LORD is God, follow Him; but if Baal, then follow him" (1 Kings 18:21 RSV) . All too clear is the fact of our own spiritual crippling today, as we limp from one false god to another, wavering between idols that are obvious and some that are perhaps a bit more subtle. And 11 seems all too likely that most folks don't know enough of the Scriptures to be able to tell when they're heading in the wrong direction or even just sitting on the fence' On the one hand, we'll say, "God is worthy of our worsrup." On the other, we look to things to make us happy, successful, or give us a longed-for sense of purpose and worth. But when we do so, how can we say that we are loving God with all our heart, soul, mind, and body (Deuteronomy 6:5, Matthew 22:37, Mark 12:30, and Luke 10:27) and still climb hand-over-fist up the ladder of success? Or remain driven to win-at-all-costs at sports? Or strive to get as much money as possible ? Or allow ungodly influences to come into our homes? It doesn't work that way. If other persons, other things, or other "gods" are what we should strive towards, then why bother with God at all? But if God is the One ON Whom we should set our affections, TO Whom we should turn for help and guidance, and FOR Whom we should live our lives, then why set above Him anything else? Why Pastor Thom Mollohan water down the best with phony promises for happiness? Joshua exhorted the peopie that , he had led for decades, "Now fear the LORD and serve Him with all faithfulness. Throw away the gods your forefathers worshiped .. . and serve the LORD. But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve ... But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD" (Joshua 24:14-15 NIV). Such admonitions may sting· a bit when you hear them, pricking your sense of propriety or causing rii?ples m your pools of plactdity. But before you get mad, remember that God is in the business of truth and His truth both sets free and gives life. If there arc things in your life that hinder your coming to know Him personally as Lord and Savior, then He wants to move them · out of the way. If there are things there that limit your capacity to build up "!reasores in heaven," by enticing . you with short-lived fancies of the flesh, _He wants to boot those thmgs out! If ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - James Randi has escaped from a locked coffin submerged in the sea, and from a straitjacket dangling over Niagara Falls. If you chose a word from a 200page book, he.could guess it. Pick an object, he' d make it fade from sight. He gave up performing as The Amazing Randi years ago, hut his words to the audience at the end of each show foreshadowed his next act. "Everythin~ you have seen here is tricks, ' he would say. "There is nothing supernalural involved here. I hope you'll accept my word for that. Thank you and good evening." · For more than two decades, Randi has been the country's skeptic-in-chief, .aiming his arrow of rationalism at psychics and faith healers, mediums and mentalists. He finds his targets so preposterous and those falhng for them so desperate that he has become obsessed. "It's important," he says, "because any misinformation like this _ of people claiming . they can subvert nature, they can do real miracles and they want to be paid for it ... that's a very negative influence on society." Toronto-born Randall James Hamilton Zwinge's career as a magician and escape artist came after he dropped out of high school and left home to join the carnival. His stage routine gave way to a nagging need to speak out · against those whose work he regarded as nonsense _ not just people who read palms and minds. He also took aim at chiropraetors, homeopaths and others. Randi's "coming out" as a skeptic essentially arrived on a 1972 episode of "The Tonight Show" _ he helped Johnny Carson ~et up Uri Geller, the Israeh performer who claimed to bend spoons w1th h1s mmd. Rand1 ensured the spoons and other pro~s were kept from Geller s hands until showtirne 10 prevent tampering. The result was agonizing 22 minutes in which Geller was unable to perform any tricks.

The truth might hurt, it might eve11 hurt a lot, but the truth sets us free (see John 8:3l c32). Just imagine people who have a disease, but prefer to deny the fact and run from the only remedy.

This is likely to bias our perspective on the world and make us feel as if we live in a more hostile and dangerous environment !han we really do.

' i • LOcAL • ·_STATE The Daily Sentinel Gardeners hear all about tea SYRACUSE - Tea- its history and health benefits was the topic discussed by guest lecturer Liz Blaettnar Golowenski during Wildwood Garden Club's recent meeting. to According Golowenski, tea was accidentally discovered in 2737. B.C. when Emperor Shen Nong visited a distant region of his realm. While he and his court had stopr.ed to rest, his servants bmled their drinking water and some dried leaves fell into the boiling water. The emperor thought ·that the brownish liquid was refreshing, and the tradition of tea drinking quickly spread through the Chinese culture. The Buddhist priest Yeisei took to tea seeds to Japan. Known as the Father of Tea in Japan, Yeisei used the tea to enhance meditation. The Tea Ceremony soon resulted, with Gei·shi serving the beverage in tea houses, aid Golowenski. Tea arrived in Europe when around 1653 Elizabeth I issued an importation charter to the Dutch Indian Trading Company, which shipped tea to Portugal, France, and Holland. Tea became so ' popular in England that it replaced ale as its national drink. Afternoon tea became popular when the Duchess . of Bedford asked friends to joiq her for an afternoon meal consisting of small cakes, sandwiches, sweets, and tea. Other hostesses soon copied this idea. Golowenski said tea became available in America in 1690, noting that Tea Gardens, centered ~und natural springs, were first opened in New York City. Tea quickly became the most popular beverage in America-that is until the Boston Tea Party-when men disguised as Indians tossed hundreds of pounds of the tea into the Boston Harbor to protest the unjust tax on tea. Tea has begun to regain its popularity as its health benefits have become known, Golowenski stated. She said that as a chemistry teacher, she was amazed when she first learned about the helpful chemicals in tea. She enumerated its benefits: Tea contains antioxidants that help protect us from aging and the effects of pollution; it has less caffeine than coffee; tea may help keep the arteries smooth Local Briefs f ,.'i cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower for fall, mulch gardens, prune raspberries and spring flowenng shrubs, l't\IPVate strawberries after the last crop, pinch mums, inspect gardens for insect damage and turn compost.

SHEERAN ASSOCIAliD PRESS WRITER CLEVELAND - A city councilman fed up with criJ)1e told a teenager with a record that~ back two years to "go to Jail or the cemetery," prompting the young man's mother to complain that the letter was threatening. Councilman Michael Polensek said his letter wasn't a threat, instead it was a warning from a public official to a thug to get out of the neighbor- hood. ' "I think of it as a death threat to my son. It's real simple," Tonya Lewis, mother of Arsehio T. Winston, 18, said · Thursday. She said her son wasn't available for an interview but might be reached at another time. · Polensek, Cleveland's longest-serving council member with 28 years, wasn't backingdown. ''I'm not wrong on this issue," he said Th~y. ' Polensek, whose four vans have been stolen from the area, mailed the letter last week after learning that Winston had been arrested in the blue-collar CoUinwOOd neighborhood on July 3 on drug-trafficking charges. "You are a 'thug' and you know what," the letter said. "There are only two places you wijl end up at the rate you are going - that is, prison or the nearest funeral home." The letter said Winstoq "must be dumber than mud" to get wrested, <;ailed him "you crack dealing piece of trash': and said "only a moron" would get involved in an alleged assault on a police officer.

' i • LOcAL • ·_STATE The Daily Sentinel Gardeners hear all about tea SYRACUSE - Tea- its history and health benefits was the topic discussed by guest lecturer Liz Blaettnar Golowenski during Wildwood Garden Club's recent meeting. to According Golowenski, tea was accidentally discovered in 2737. B.C. when Emperor Shen Nong visited a distant region of his realm. While he and his court had stopr.ed to rest, his servants bmled their drinking water and some dried leaves fell into the boiling water. The emperor thought ·that the brownish liquid was refreshing, and the tradition of tea drinking quickly spread through the Chinese culture. The Buddhist priest Yeisei took to tea seeds to Japan. Known as the Father of Tea in Japan, Yeisei used the tea to enhance meditation. The Tea Ceremony soon resulted, with Gei·shi serving the beverage in tea houses, aid Golowenski. Tea arrived in Europe when around 1653 Elizabeth I issued an importation charter to the Dutch Indian Trading Company, which shipped tea to Portugal, France, and Holland. Tea became so ' popular in England that it replaced ale as its national drink. Afternoon tea became popular when the Duchess . of Bedford asked friends to joiq her for an afternoon meal consisting of small cakes, sandwiches, sweets, and tea. Other hostesses soon copied this idea. Golowenski said tea became available in America in 1690, noting that Tea Gardens, centered ~und natural springs, were first opened in New York City. Tea quickly became the most popular beverage in America-that is until the Boston Tea Party-when men disguised as Indians tossed hundreds of pounds of the tea into the Boston Harbor to protest the unjust tax on tea. Tea has begun to regain its popularity as its health benefits have become known, Golowenski stated. She said that as a chemistry teacher, she was amazed when she first learned about the helpful chemicals in tea. She enumerated its benefits: Tea contains antioxidants that help protect us from aging and the effects of pollution; it has less caffeine than coffee; tea may help keep the arteries smooth Local Briefs f ,.'i cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower for fall, mulch gardens, prune raspberries and spring flowenng shrubs, l't\IPVate strawberries after the last crop, pinch mums, inspect gardens for insect damage and turn compost.

SHEERAN ASSOCIAliD PRESS WRITER CLEVELAND - A city councilman fed up with criJ)1e told a teenager with a record that~ back two years to "go to Jail or the cemetery," prompting the young man's mother to complain that the letter was threatening. Councilman Michael Polensek said his letter wasn't a threat, instead it was a warning from a public official to a thug to get out of the neighbor- hood. ' "I think of it as a death threat to my son. It's real simple," Tonya Lewis, mother of Arsehio T. Winston, 18, said · Thursday. She said her son wasn't available for an interview but might be reached at another time. · Polensek, Cleveland's longest-serving council member with 28 years, wasn't backingdown. ''I'm not wrong on this issue," he said Th~y. ' Polensek, whose four vans have been stolen from the area, mailed the letter last week after learning that Winston had been arrested in the blue-collar CoUinwOOd neighborhood on July 3 on drug-trafficking charges. "You are a 'thug' and you know what," the letter said. "There are only two places you wijl end up at the rate you are going - that is, prison or the nearest funeral home." The letter said Winstoq "must be dumber than mud" to get wrested, <;ailed him "you crack dealing piece of trash': and said "only a moron" would get involved in an alleged assault on a police officer.

If present trends continue, DEI will puttwo of its drivers, Martin Truex Jr. and Dale Earnhardt Jr., in the Chase for the Nextel Cup. The third driver, Menard, is JSih in the standings, partly because he bas failed to make the starting field six times. Menard, 26, is a rookie from Eau Claire, Wis. When the season began, he had no owner points behind his No. 15 Menards (yes, the family chain of home-improvement warehouses is his principal sponsor) Chevrolet. · However, Menard is not without im· pressive credentials. He finished sixth in the Busch Series point stand· ings in both 2005 and 2006, winning at his home track, The Milwaukee Mile, on June 24, 2006. At the beginning of the year, Tony Eury Sr. was Menard's crew chief. Af· · ter Menard failed to make the Daytona 500 starting field, Eury said: "We knew when we went to Daytona that we didn't have the best stuff." Eury has since moved on to join his nephew, Dale Earnhardt Jr., at JR Motorsports. Menard's crew chief since the beginning of the month has been Dave Charpentier, a highly regarded engineer and mechanic with some ex· perience as a crew chief. Menard has been successful in making the field for five of the last six races. His 12'"place finish in June at Michigan Inter· national Speedway was a season best. Menard had particularly high hopes at Chicagoland Speedway after qualifying a season-best 16th. "This is the best·driving car t(Jat I've had so far," he said before the race. In I ..

A few years ago, NASCAR's Jim Hunter was quoted as saying the ruling body used "ran· dom testing on demand," which, of £Ourse, is impossible, since testing, by definition, can't be both "random" and "on demand." "Here's how I feel about the whole thing," said driver Kevin Harvick. "I believe every driv· er and every national series should be drug tested a couple times a year randomly, regardless of who you are, what you're doing.
