REED BREEOOMVDAILVSENTINEL :COM POMEROY - Villages and townships in Meigs County have been asked to consider and approve a county-wide Enhanced 911 plan as part of the process of Implementing !he service. Middleport Village Council was the first to approve the plan , taki ng action at last week' s regul&r meeting. Others are expected to follow. Meigs County Commissioner Mick Davenport said the plan requiring approval is an outline of basic system opera- lions, such as a budgetary. outlines, staffing and other elements of operation. The county's E-911 Plan is based largely on a plan implemented in Vinton County, where the 911 ~mer­ gency system operates from the shenff's department. The clock is ticking for county commissioners and the committee charged with implementing the system. Voters ' approved funding through a 50-cent telephone surcharge in November 2006. The system must be operational within the next year. , Commissioners Davenport and Jim Sheets said Thursday choosing a loca- tion for operating the system will be the next step in implementation. There are two options for locating the system. Sheriff Robert Beegle has agreed to locate the syst~m in his office, but space constraints and demands on his staff might require commissioners to put the operation in the EMS headquarters, Sheets said. A decision as to location of the servi ce must be made before eq uipment can be ordered or other decisions can be made, Sheets said, and a determination as to location could be made by early October. Sheets said two vendon have made very similar bids for the equipment needed to the system . operate Telephone customers have already begun to pay a 50cent monthly surcharge for 911 service, and funds from the Appalachian Regional Commission are expected _to · help the county purchase. the necessary equipment, which is estimated to cost approximately $120,000. The monthly telephone charge is expected to generate approximately $40,000. Vinton County collects less from its telephone ·charge and operates 1ts 911 system solely from that revenue. There will be no separate director for the 911 service. Instead, it will be supervised by either the sheriff or the EMS director, de(JC!nding on where the serv1ce is ultimately loca.ted. Davenport said one of the most complicated tasks associated wilh implementing the service appears to be completed - that of compiling a data base of addresses, telephone numbers and names, using telephone records provided by Verizon. Those "white sheets" have been sent to Verizon for review and approvaL Davenport said they must deemed to be at least 97 percent accurate by Verizon.

John Carey received Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medici ne's (OU-COM) Phillips Medal of Public Service at the college's 32nd convocation ceremony. Carey- was honored for almost three decades of public service to Ohio. durmg which he has distinguished himself as a legislator. Presiding over the ceremony, which welcomes first-year students, was OU.COM Dean Dr. Jack Brose. "As an alumnus of Ohio University," said Carey, a Wellston Republican whose 17th District includes Gallia County, "I am very proud just to be invited to be here, and it feels good to be recognized by your al rna mater. I belie.ve very much in what OU-COM is doing. I'm very proud to be able to make a contribution to that." The Phillips Medal of Public Service is OU COM's highest honor and is given to outstanding individuals for medical practice exemplifying the best traditions of the osteopathic profession; for administration exemplifying the best tradition of humane, concerned administration and public involvement; and for public policy leadership exemplifying the best traditions of democratic concern for the public good and the public welfare. Previous recipients of the medal have been former U.S. Sen. John Glenn; former Democratic presidential nominee Michael Dukakis; and Dr. William Anderson, surgeon, civil rights leader and past president of the American Osteopathic Association. This ·year, Dr. Daniel F. Dickriede, South Pointe Hospital emergency physician and former volunteer with the Nobel Prize-winning Doctors Without Borders, and Dr. Fred DeGrandis, president and chief executive officer of Cleveland Clinic's Regional AMP-Ohio from PageA1 a court reporter will cornpile a transcript, all of which will go into the record when considering the application.

The second hearing is an "adjudicatory hearing" .set to take place at 10 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 8 in the hearing room at the offices of the · Public Utilities Commission .of Ohio, 180 E.

Not participating could effect federal funding for the county in disaster situations, as well as flood insurance availability. "People don't realize how important floodplain is until it's too late," said Jennifer Harrison, district manager for the Gallia Soil & Water Conservation District, the agency now in charge of floodplain management for Gallia County. "If we don ' t uphold FEMA federal guidelines, we can' t get funding in an emergency," she said. Terry Hemby. who served as the coumy's floodplain administrator for over I0 years, said it's a tough job, but Mills seems determined to do his best. "He's just really pleased to be working in his area of study," said Hemby.

After much discussion and negotiations, the Gallia SWCD took on the role of supervisor. County Commissioner David Smith said the move was ·the logical choice. "I really see this as a first step to a closer relationship between the (Soil and Water) office and the county," said Smith. Besides already having the maps and information needed by the floodplain administrator, giving more funding to that office on the local level will also mean more funding from the state . Harrison said it's been a learning experience for their office, as well as Mill s, who is taking the initiative to learn as much as he can about floodplain management. "He's just got that attitude that he's going to learn," said Harrison. Mills is currently located in the Gallia County Courthouse, but will soon move to the SWCD otllce located at the C.H.

"His service has been so important," he said, "to the area, that for a time, if Dr. Jones was not practicing in Wellston, there would have been no doctor available. He has made a real difference. "As incoming students in the College of Osteopathic Medicine, I am confident that each one of you will also make your mark on the world, not only through your medical practice but because of who each of you are as individuals." Carey addressed the efforts of the state legislature and . Gov. Ted Strickland to help contain the costs of health . care, which he said has put a tremendous strain on not only governmental budgets but family ones, too. "At the same time we are working to contain costs, we must also work to improve access to quality health care," he said, citing the expansion of Ohio's Horne First program and State Children's Health Insurance Program, which improved access and affordability for children and seniors. Focusing on the role of the medical community, he said that although the state government may help to pay for health care, "it will be you. as practitioners of medicine that will have biggest influence on the health of Ohioans .. "As I look out on this crowd of future doctors, I am confident that Ohio's health-care ~ystem will have the re.sources to remain top notch well into the fUture. "Just as I stepped on this campus 30 years ago with the goal of becoming a public servant, today lie~ins your journey of realizmg your goal of becoming doctors.

Davis' disappearance in June drew national attention as thousands - including Cutts - gathered to search for her in the area surrounding her northeast Ohio holl'ie. Authorities say Davis was killed June 14 in her home near North Canton, about 45 miles south of Cleveland. They have not said how she was killed. Of the 44 death penalty indictments brought by Stark County prosecutors in the past 25 years, only five resulted in death sentences, the records show. Twenty-five of those indictments ended in plea bargains - or 57 percent of all Stark County death penalty cases, according to the records. Past offenders offered plea deals include James Rash, charged in 1988 with killing five members of a family in a fire and Benjamin Bickel, charged in 1998 with killing two people during a failed taxi robbery. Stark County juries and three-judge panels spared 14 additional offenders, includin g Emmett Mapp, charged in 1992 with beating an elderly couple to death during a robbery, and who faced a possible death sentence have been sentenced to life in prison without parole. Six of those offenders pleaded guilty. Recent Ohio history is full of examples of high-profile death penalty cases that end with lesser sentences. In Shelby County in 2000, Michael Hensley was allowed to plead to life in prison for killing three teenage girls, then driving to the house of a Bible teacher and fatally shooting him.

' " ' '., • Knocking moochers doesn't mean shes selfish Bv KATHY MtTCHEU AND MARCY SUGAR Dear Annie: Once a month, my husband and I get together for dinner with another couple. We take. turns buying. The other three always order afterdinner drinks or espresso, but I prefer dessert. I rarely eat sweets and really look forward to the exceptional desserts at the restaurants we go to. Each time, I glance around the table and say, "Are you sure you don ' t want to try tl)e desserts? They're fantastic here." Everyone always says no. The problem ? I have noticed that at every place we have dined, the server arrives with their drinks, then places MY dessert in the middle of the table with four dessert fork s. Of course, they all be~;~in chatting and start diggmg in. I have yet to enjoy a dessert by myself. Recently, trying to be nice, I ordered my dessert and whi spered to the server to bri ng another "for the table." As usual, he placed the dessert in the middle with three forks , and then placed the second one in front of me. Our friends started laughing and said, "I guess we always eat your desserts, don't we?" My husband was silent the rest of the evening. In the car, he angrily said, "I dido 't think you were such a selfish person." I was dumbstruck. I told him I wanted to have my own dessert and I'm also not too keen on the germ thing. He PageA3 AROUND TOWN ANNIE 'S MAILBOX (Carey receives 2007 Phlllips Medal of Public Service For the Record NEWSOMYDAILYTRIBUNE.cOM iunba~ Ut:tm~ ·ienttnd . pointed out that since it was their turn to pay. it was rude to order an extra dessert. My cake was $8. They ordered $14 cognacs . Why would my server, without asking, assume my dessert was for everyone? And why in the world would this make my husband so upset? Who's right? - Deprived Chocoholic Dear Deprived: You are, although you should have made your move when you were paying the bi ll. Your husband is upset because he doesn't want to appear greedy, but your friend s should have asked permission to share your dessert. And although many diners put a single dessert in the middl e of the table, the waitstaff should never make · that assumption. Next time you are hosting, say lnudly that you are ordering a dessert for the table and also one for yourself. Dear Annie: I have been datin g a wonderful man who is very special, btit has absolutely no table etiquette. I know I should try to overlook it, but I can't "Jed" talks with his mouth full, chows down as if he hasn' t eaten in a month, uses his fingers to push food onto his fork , hold s hi s fork upright as if he 's <~bout to carve a turkey and cuts all his meat into pieces before he starts to eat. . This is starting to affect the romantic side of our relationship. One evening, I actually e;ot nauseous. I hafe to hurt htm. What can I do? - Dating a Caveman Dear Dating: Breaking up over this would also hurt, so you may as well say something. Tell Jed you think he is wonderful and you want ochers to think so, too, but hi s table manners might give a negative impression, especially to business associates. Ask if he would mind if you gave him a few pointers. Dear Annie: This is in response to "Need a Handyman in Dallas." My husband also left jobs upfinished. One day I'd had enough. He was supposed to paint the front of our twostory home. I hired painters from our local fire department (a sideline for many), and they were there when he arrived home from work. At first, he was stunned and angry. I told him, "I'm putting you on the two-year plan. If it's not done in two years, I hire it out." It' s amazing how many jobs he finishes now, but he's willing to hire out just as many. It only stung for a minute. - Mtchigan Dear Michigan: Good for you , although you are very tolerant to put him on a two-year plan. We think six months is more than enough .

John Carey received Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medici ne's (OU-COM) Phillips Medal of Public Service at the college's 32nd convocation ceremony. Carey- was honored for almost three decades of public service to Ohio. durmg which he has distinguished himself as a legislator. Presiding over the ceremony, which welcomes first-year students, was OU.COM Dean Dr. Jack Brose. "As an alumnus of Ohio University," said Carey, a Wellston Republican whose 17th District includes Gallia County, "I am very proud just to be invited to be here, and it feels good to be recognized by your al rna mater. I belie.ve very much in what OU-COM is doing. I'm very proud to be able to make a contribution to that." The Phillips Medal of Public Service is OU COM's highest honor and is given to outstanding individuals for medical practice exemplifying the best traditions of the osteopathic profession; for administration exemplifying the best tradition of humane, concerned administration and public involvement; and for public policy leadership exemplifying the best traditions of democratic concern for the public good and the public welfare. Previous recipients of the medal have been former U.S. Sen. John Glenn; former Democratic presidential nominee Michael Dukakis; and Dr. William Anderson, surgeon, civil rights leader and past president of the American Osteopathic Association. This ·year, Dr. Daniel F. Dickriede, South Pointe Hospital emergency physician and former volunteer with the Nobel Prize-winning Doctors Without Borders, and Dr. Fred DeGrandis, president and chief executive officer of Cleveland Clinic's Regional AMP-Ohio from PageA1 a court reporter will cornpile a transcript, all of which will go into the record when considering the application. Eiselstein said there will' be no. question and answer session at this hearing. The second hearing is an "adjudicatory hearing" .set to take place at 10 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 8 in the hearing room at the offices of the · Public Utilities Commission .of Ohio, 180 E. Broad St., Columbus. Eiselstein described this hearing as being "more procedural," involving an attor. ney examiner where crossexamination will be permitted on those ac tive partici- Mills from PageA1 While floodplain regulations are adopted by the local governments, they are federal guidelines. Not participating could effect federal funding for the county in disaster situations, as well as flood insurance availability. "People don't realize how important floodplain is until it's too late," said Jennifer Harrison, district manager for the Gallia Soil & Water Conservation District, the agency now in charge of floodplain management for Gallia County. "If we don ' t uphold FEMA federal guidelines, we can' t get funding in an emergency," she said. Terry Hemby. who served as the coumy's floodplain administrator for over I0 years, said it's a tough job, but Mills seems determined to do his best. "He's just really pleased to be working in his area of study," said Hemby. Until a few months ago, the fl oodplain administrator . very young and very old, securing legislation that has provided better health-<:are options and imP.roved access and affordabllity of health care for them. He has also been an important friend and advocate for OU. COM through recognition of, and hel~ing to empower, the college s efforts to better health care for the people of southeastern Ohio. In 2002, he was named National . Republican Legislator of the Year and has received the Vern Riffe Leadership Award for Sen. John Carey Mental Retardation and Hospitals, also received the Developmental Disabilities and the AMVETS Legislator Phillips Medal. The Phil! ips Medal was of the Year award. Carey was the keynote first awarded by OU-COM speaker for the convocation in 1976.

After much discussion and negotiations, the Gallia SWCD took on the role of supervisor. County Commissioner David Smith said the move was ·the logical choice. "I really see this as a first step to a closer relationship between the (Soil and Water) office and the county," said Smith. Besides already having the maps and information needed by the floodplain administrator, giving more funding to that office on the local level will also mean more funding from the state . Harrison said it's been a learning experience for their office, as well as Mill s, who is taking the initiative to learn as much as he can about floodplain management. "He's just got that attitude that he's going to learn," said Harrison. Mills is currently located in the Gallia County Courthouse, but will soon move to the SWCD otllce located at the C.H.

"His service has been so important," he said, "to the area, that for a time, if Dr. Jones was not practicing in Wellston, there would have been no doctor available. He has made a real difference. "As incoming students in the College of Osteopathic Medicine, I am confident that each one of you will also make your mark on the world, not only through your medical practice but because of who each of you are as individuals." Carey addressed the efforts of the state legislature and . Gov. Ted Strickland to help contain the costs of health . care, which he said has put a tremendous strain on not only governmental budgets but family ones, too. "At the same time we are working to contain costs, we must also work to improve access to quality health care," he said, citing the expansion of Ohio's Horne First program and State Children's Health Insurance Program, which improved access and affordability for children and seniors. Focusing on the role of the medical community, he said that although the state government may help to pay for health care, "it will be you. as practitioners of medicine that will have biggest influence on the health of Ohioans .. "As I look out on this crowd of future doctors, I am confident that Ohio's health-care ~ystem will have the re.sources to remain top notch well into the fUture. "Just as I stepped on this campus 30 years ago with the goal of becoming a public servant, today lie~ins your journey of realizmg your goal of becoming doctors. I cannot predict all that you will accomplish, the places you will go, or the way rnedtcine will change in the years to come, but I wish xou G~peed in the process. ' . Highway Patrol .

According to a review of by The documents Columbus Dispatch, . the board charactenzed Susan Purtee as undependable with a history of insubordination. The three-member panel unanimously recommended thai Purtee's application be denied by then-public safety director Larry James, who had the final say in hiring. "Has worked 20 years and · has nothing to show for it (heavily in debt). Applicant is shallow and dpes not accept criticism well," Lt. Rickert She,wring wrote in the board's opinion. ' "Does not like people telling her what to do. Very opinionated. Is judgmental about people," he added. Des£ite the review board s conclusion in July 1991 that Purtee, then 44, was not ·an acceptable candidate, she was hired that November. Purtee, now 60, was reas. si~ned to a desk position ~tth the Columbus police this week after the department became aware of videos Purtee and her sister produced and posted on the Web site YouTube. . ' . Purtee equid not be reached on Saturday· to comment on the videos or the newspaper's report. Her sister has called the videos an expression of free speech me~~Dt to reveal the truth about America. The videos refer to blacks, Jews, Cubans and illegal immigrants as "firthy" and "scumbags" and accuse Jews of abusing their'positions at the top of the nation's media and entertainment industries. The review board also· expressed cot\cern in I 991 about Purtee's patchy employment and financial history, according to The Dispatch. While• he didn't recall Purtee among .the Offitei'S he hired, Jam~ acknowledged Wednesday that he inust have made the deeision to hire her. He acknowledged the review board's ·statements should have given him pause, but said the department has io make the best of the pool of candidates it get to fill its academy ~lasses . "She would not have been the perfect candidate," James .said. "The question is, how many perfect candidates do you have to select from at the time? How many people did I in fact pass over? That becomes. the ultimate question." • Records: Death sentence chance~ slim in slain pregnant woman case BvANDREW jurors are reluctant to do it," Beane said. WELSH-HUGGINS Results of recent capital Since 1996, nine men and cases in Stark County two women in Stark County ASSOCIATED PRESS WRII,Eft COLUMBUS - 'The odds are against a death sentence for a police officer charged with killing ·his pregnant girlfriend and her unborn daughter, tecords show. Only one in every 10 offenders charged iii Stark County with a capital crime have received a sentence of death since I 981, when the state's capital punishment Ia w took .effect, according to an analysis of Ohio Supreme Court records by The Associated Press: Canton Patrolman Bobby Cutts Jr., 30, could receive the death penalty if convi~t­ ed of aggravated murder in the death of Jessie Davis and the unborn girl. Davis' disappearance in June drew national attention as thousands - including Cutts - gathered to search for her in the area surrounding her northeast Ohio holl'ie. Authorities say Davis was killed June 14 in her home near North Canton, about 45 miles south of Cleveland. They have not said how she was killed. Of the 44 death penalty indictments brought by Stark County prosecutors in the past 25 years, only five resulted in death sentences, the records show. Twenty-five of those indictments ended in plea bargains - or 57 percent of all Stark County death penalty cases, according to the records. Past offenders offered plea deals include James Rash, charged in 1988 with killing five members of a family in a fire and Benjamin Bickel, charged in 1998 with killing two people during a failed taxi robbery. Stark County juries and three-judge panels spared 14 additional offenders, includin g Emmett Mapp, charged in 1992 with beating an elderly couple to death during a robbery, and who faced a possible death sentence have been sentenced to life in prison without parole. Six of those offenders pleaded guilty. Recent Ohio history is full of examples of high-profile death penalty cases that end with lesser sentences. In Shelby County in 2000, Michael Hensley was allowed to plead to life in prison for killing three teenage girls, then driving to the house of a Bible teacher and fatally shooting him.

Each time, I glance around the table and say, "Are you sure you don ' t want to try tl)e desserts? They're fantastic here." Everyone always says no. The problem ? I have noticed that at every place we have dined, the server arrives with their drinks, then places MY dessert in the middle of the table with four dessert fork s. Of course, they all be~;~in chatting and start diggmg in. I have yet to enjoy a dessert by myself. Recently, trying to be nice, I ordered my dessert and whi spered to the server to bri ng another "for the table." As usual, he placed the dessert in the middle with three forks , and then placed the second one in front of me. Our friends started laughing and said, "I guess we always eat your desserts, don't we?" My husband was silent the rest of the evening. In the car, he angrily said, "I dido 't think you were such a selfish person." I was dumbstruck. I told him I wanted to have my own dessert and I'm also not too keen on the germ thing. He PageA3 AROUND TOWN ANNIE 'S MAILBOX (Carey receives 2007 Phlllips Medal of Public Service For the Record NEWSOMYDAILYTRIBUNE.cOM iunba~ Ut:tm~ ·ienttnd . pointed out that since it was their turn to pay. it was rude to order an extra dessert. My cake was $8. They ordered $14 cognacs . Why would my server, without asking, assume my dessert was for everyone? And why in the world would this make my husband so upset? Who's right? - Deprived Chocoholic Dear Deprived: You are, although you should have made your move when you were paying the bi ll. Your husband is upset because he doesn't want to appear greedy, but your friend s should have asked permission to share your dessert. And although many diners put a single dessert in the middl e of the table, the waitstaff should never make · that assumption. Next time you are hosting, say lnudly that you are ordering a dessert for the table and also one for yourself. Dear Annie: I have been datin g a wonderful man who is very special, btit has absolutely no table etiquette. I know I should try to overlook it, but I can't "Jed" talks with his mouth full, chows down as if he hasn' t eaten in a month, uses his fingers to push food onto his fork , hold s hi s fork upright as if he 's <~bout to carve a turkey and cuts all his meat into pieces before he starts to eat. . This is starting to affect the romantic side of our relationship. One evening, I actually e;ot nauseous. I hafe to hurt htm. What can I do? - Dating a Caveman Dear Dating: Breaking up over this would also hurt, so you may as well say something. Tell Jed you think he is wonderful and you want ochers to think so, too, but hi s table manners might give a negative impression, especially to business associates. Ask if he would mind if you gave him a few pointers. Dear Annie: This is in response to "Need a Handyman in Dallas." My husband also left jobs upfinished. One day I'd had enough. He was supposed to paint the front of our twostory home. I hired painters from our local fire department (a sideline for many), and they were there when he arrived home from work. At first, he was stunned and angry. I told him, "I'm putting you on the two-year plan. If it's not done in two years, I hire it out." It' s amazing how many jobs he finishes now, but he's willing to hire out just as many. It only stung for a minute. - Mtchigan Dear Michigan: Good for you , although you are very tolerant to put him on a two-year plan. We think six months is more than enough .

READER'S PageA4 VIEW Deceived !fso, get name <?ffpetition Dear Editor: A few weeks ago, an innocent college-age female knocked on my door and asked if I would sign a petition. I asked her what the petition was all about. She proceeded to inform me that it was a campaign to helP. regulate and control sex businesses in our community. Like most concerned Ohioans, I want to protect our children and families and stand for community values. So I went ahead and innocently signed the petition, thinking that I was doing the right thing. However, lhave found out since then that this petition is being circulated by the owner of the sex businesses. They paid circula(o(s to go out in the streets trying to convince people to sign the petition. The reason for the petition is because on Sept. 4, a new law goes i1,1to effect called the CDA, "Community Defense Act," that would place common sense regulation on all sex businesses in Oh10; This law would regulate sex business~ es to close between midnight and 6 a.m. This is the time that most crimes occur. The other regulation is aimed at reducing prostitution by prohibiting physical contact between nude dancers and patrons. In addition, the new law gave cities and townships needed assistance and protection by passing their own regulations. Those opposing the law have the right to pass a petition before it goes into effect and if they receive enough signatures, this prevents the law from going into effect and forces it onto the ballot. I was deceived and I'm sure many others did not realize what they were signing. I contacted Citizens for Community Values and they informed me that I could have my name removed by going .to www.ccv.otg or call (800) 274-2345. I did so and thought the good citizens of Gallia County might need this vital information.

Chaos doesn•t even begin to cover it. , l'here is little difference between al-Qaeda and the mullahs who call the shots in 'Iran. Both groups want to annihilate Westerners and Jews. This is not a secret. Iranian President Ahmadinejad delights in stating his homicidal urges every chance he gets. But living in relative safety, many Americans simply don't want to hear it. It was the same thing in the late 1930s, when mil- · lions of Americans didn't want any part of Hitler or Tojo. It was only after Pearl Harbor that the country raJlied against the evil · that threatened it. Sept. 11 was Pearl Harbor II, and for a time, Americans came together to fight the enemy. All of that evaporated, however, in the fog of confusion called Iraq. President . Bush and his advisors truly believed the Iraqi people would choose freedom over carnage. They were wrong. Yes, there are good, brave Iraqis, but not enough of them. Ancient tribal hatreds lllld terrorfor-hire madmen. rule the day. The United States, military has performed magnificently. But no nation can impose order on a population that believes God requires them to murder people. So what should be done in Iraq? A rapid U.S. pollout would likely result in massive death as the vari ous Muslims sects would try to obliterate each other. The cut-and-runners don't mention that very much, but the Democ~ats already have their talking points. If thousands are. murdered after the Amencans leave, it would be Bush's fault because he got us in there in the first place. So it's a win-win for the left. They can claim they saved American lives by getting the military out, and if civilians are murdered as a result, they'll put it on Bush and the Republicans. The !olitics of death is alive an well.

Larry Craig resigned Saturday over a men's room sex sting, bowing to pressur~ from fellow Republicans worried about a scandal dimming their election prospects. "I apologize for what I have caused. I am deeply sorry," Craig said, his wife Suzanne at his side. Craig's resignation completed a stunning downfall that began Monday ,with the disclosure that he pleaded guilty to a reduced charge following his arrest during a sex sting in a Minneapolis airport men's room., Although leadin~ · members of his own party had called fot him to step down, Craig steadfastly resisted resigning for days, contending . he had done nothing wrong and that his only mistake was pleading guilty Aug. 1 to l\ misdemeanorcharge. · President Bush called Craig from the White House after · the ·· senator's announcement and told !tim he knew it was a difficult decision ·to make, said .

But the stakes in Iraq are enormous, and that point has been consistently hidden from the American public by a media that despises the Bush administration and is openly rooting for a Democratic president in 2008.

Lawry quits as Antioch president YELLOW SPRINGS (AP) -- The president of quit Antioch College Friday, four months ahead of schedule as the school prepares to shut down temporarily next summer. Steven Lawry did not tell school officials why he decided to step down ahead of schedule, said Mary Lou LaPierre, vice chancellor for university advancement. Reached at home , Lawry declined to comment. LaPierre said one reason Lawry was hired was to raise funds 'for the school, a task that alumni now are becoming more involved in. On Monday, the college announced that university trustees have agreed to work with the alumni in the alumni's. effort to demonstrate the feasibility of keeping the colle~;e open instead of temporanly closing it. Lawry became the school's 21 st president in January 2006, coming to the school from the Ford Foundation. LaPierre said Andrzej Bloch, dean of faculty, has been named CEO/chief academic officer for the college. Antioch , officials announced in June that they intend to restructure the college, upl;lrade facilities and reopen tn 2012 .

READER'S PageA4 VIEW Deceived !fso, get name <?ffpetition Dear Editor: A few weeks ago, an innocent college-age female knocked on my door and asked if I would sign a petition. I asked her what the petition was all about. She proceeded to inform me that it was a campaign to helP. regulate and control sex businesses in our community. Like most concerned Ohioans, I want to protect our children and families and stand for community values. So I went ahead and innocently signed the petition, thinking that I was doing the right thing. However, lhave found out since then that this petition is being circulated by the owner of the sex businesses. They paid circula(o(s to go out in the streets trying to convince people to sign the petition. The reason for the petition is because on Sept. 4, a new law goes i1,1to effect called the CDA, "Community Defense Act," that would place common sense regulation on all sex businesses in Oh10; This law would regulate sex business~ es to close between midnight and 6 a.m. This is the time that most crimes occur. The other regulation is aimed at reducing prostitution by prohibiting physical contact between nude dancers and patrons. In addition, the new law gave cities and townships needed assistance and protection by passing their own regulations. Those opposing the law have the right to pass a petition before it goes into effect and if they receive enough signatures, this prevents the law from going into effect and forces it onto the ballot. I was deceived and I'm sure many others did not realize what they were signing. I contacted Citizens for Community Values and they informed me that I could have my name removed by going .to www.ccv.otg or call (800) 274-2345. I did so and thought the good citizens of Gallia County might need this vital information.

But we here at the Bureau of Medical Alarm are asking ourselves: What if a single glove (this is sometimes called the "Lone Glove" theory) was to burst into flames? What if this happened while the glove was on a doctor's hand? And what if the doctor's hand was, at that very moment, inside your personal body? One thing that would happen, of course, · is !he doctor would charge you a ·Jot of money. The underlying philosophy of our entire health-care system is that the more scary, painful, dangerous and Oretha Margaret (Pickens) Snider, 76, a former Racine resident, passed away on Wednesday, Aug. 29, 2007. in Memphis, Tenn.

The Democratic Party 1s hell-bent on pulling out of the desert killing fields, while the Bush administration is trying to buy time with an · aggressive push against the murderous "insurgents." • Polls show that most Americans are sick of the entire mess, and the left is capitalizing on the disenchantment. There is no question the war has been mismanaged and the Iraqi · government is corrupt and cowardly. But the stakes in Iraq are enormous, and that point has been consistently hidden from the American public by a media that despises the Bush administration and is openly rooting for a Democratic president in 2008. The cold truth is that Iran will dominate Iraq if the USA withdraws. That dominance will lead to increased . terror activity · agairist American interests not only 'in the Pers\an Gulf region but also around the world.

Lawry quits as Antioch president YELLOW SPRINGS (AP) -- The president of quit Antioch College Friday, four months ahead of schedule as the school prepares to shut down temporarily next summer. Steven Lawry did not tell school officials why he decided to step down ahead of schedule, said Mary Lou LaPierre, vice chancellor for university advancement.

On Monday, the college announced that university trustees have agreed to work with the alumni in the alumni's. effort to demonstrate the feasibility of keeping the colle~;e open instead of temporanly closing it.

RiO GRANDE - The University of Rio Grande women's basketball program went back to an area that has been good to them in the past The:r closed out their recruitmg for the 2007-08 season with the signing of Alix Pulley of Sprin& Valley Hil!h School in Hnntmgton, W.Va. This is the same .school that produced fonner hoop and softball standout Annie Thcker. · Pulley, a 5-foot•8 left-handed guard, comes to Rio Grande full of potential and may prove to be a huge get by the ttme her college career is over. Pulley was 3rd team allstate last season and was 1st team Ali-MSAC. Pulley was also named most valuable player of the MSAC All-Star Game and led Spring Valley in scoring in each of the last three seasons. Alix said she is excited and anxious to get started at Rio Grande. "I'm extremely excited ·to be an addition to Rio Grande," Pulley said. "I'm very eager to get started in ~hoot and playing basketball" "Rio has a great nursing program," Pulley added. '1 thought to myself, if I can play ball and get a good education, then I'd better take advantage of that opportunity." Rio Grande head coach David Smalley said Pulley reminds him of fonner player Stacy Riley, the team's current leadmg scorer and a 2007 Athleuc Hall of Fame inductee. "Alix reminds me a lot of Stacy in some wa;ts. Alix is left-handed, just hke Stacy, she's hard-nosed, can get the ball to the &lass, sees the floor very well, ' he said. "Shooting-wise, on the perimeter, she can be a streaky shooter, she can shoot the ball, but I think that's a part of her game she will certainly 1mprove on. "She just does a lot of good thin~s. m reference to her athleticism," Smalley added. Smalley said that Pulley will be competing for playing ' time at the two-guaril spot, '":· which is a very deep and wide " . open position at this point. ••· "She'll be competing, proba- " . bly at the ~o-guard spot, and , we're very talented at that ~­ position, so she'll be compel- .. mg for time at that position." ' , Pulley went on to say that ·:. the nursing program and the . :, close proXImity to her hoine ,. ., were key factors in choosing , , Rio. "I was familiar with the nursing program and that it ' ·'was an hour away," she said. ., She plans to pursue a bach- · ' · elor's degree in nursing and to " · specialize in becoming a nurse anesthetist. Pulley . assessed her " strengths and weaknesses as a · ' player. "I feel I am a strong · shooter and I can drive the ball 'really well," she said.

RiO GRANDE - The University of Rio Grande women's basketball program went back to an area that has been good to them in the past The:r closed out their recruitmg for the 2007-08 season with the signing of Alix Pulley of Sprin& Valley Hil!h School in Hnntmgton, W.Va. This is the same .school that produced fonner hoop and softball standout Annie Thcker. · Pulley, a 5-foot•8 left-handed guard, comes to Rio Grande full of potential and may prove to be a huge get by the ttme her college career is over. Pulley was 3rd team allstate last season and was 1st team Ali-MSAC. Pulley was also named most valuable player of the MSAC All-Star Game and led Spring Valley in scoring in each of the last three seasons. Alix said she is excited and anxious to get started at Rio Grande. "I'm extremely excited ·to be an addition to Rio Grande," Pulley said. "I'm very eager to get started in ~hoot and playing basketball" "Rio has a great nursing program," Pulley added. '1 thought to myself, if I can play ball and get a good education, then I'd better take advantage of that opportunity." Rio Grande head coach David Smalley said Pulley reminds him of fonner player Stacy Riley, the team's current leadmg scorer and a 2007 Athleuc Hall of Fame inductee. "Alix reminds me a lot of Stacy in some wa;ts. Alix is left-handed, just hke Stacy, she's hard-nosed, can get the ball to the &lass, sees the floor very well, ' he said. "Shooting-wise, on the perimeter, she can be a streaky shooter, she can shoot the ball, but I think that's a part of her game she will certainly 1mprove on. "She just does a lot of good thin~s. m reference to her athleticism," Smalley added. Smalley said that Pulley will be competing for playing ' time at the two-guaril spot, '":· which is a very deep and wide " . open position at this point. ••· "She'll be competing, proba- " . bly at the ~o-guard spot, and , we're very talented at that ~­ position, so she'll be compel- .. mg for time at that position." ' , Pulley went on to say that ·:. the nursing program and the . :, close proXImity to her hoine ,. ., were key factors in choosing , , Rio. "I was familiar with the nursing program and that it ' ·'was an hour away," she said. ., She plans to pursue a bach- · ' · elor's degree in nursing and to " · specialize in becoming a nurse anesthetist. Pulley . assessed her " strengths and weaknesses as a · ' player. "I feel I am a strong · shooter and I can drive the ball 'really well," she said.

Supposedly the early Spanish explorers reported that humrmngbirds, which they had never seen before, were a cro~s between birds and insects; it's easy to see why, hummingbirds ordinanly beat their wings anywhere from 40 to 80 times a second, and are the only birds that can fly backwards. I have a neighbor whose hummingbird feeders always seem to attract a large number of the little birds, and it is enjoyable to sit and watch the birds visit. Ordinarily hummingbirds are solitary creatures, but in in the Open Jim Freeman groups they are actually quite !lggressive, and if enough nummers visit your feeders you can watch them fight, buzzing into each other vying for the resources there. Sometimes the busy birds need to take a break and perch on a small limb; this dispels another hummingbird myth, that hummingbirds don' t have legs or feet. · I don't know w!Jat predators hummingbirds face in nature, but feeding and maintaining a metabolism that includes a heartbeat from 250 to I ,200 beats per minute, and a respiratiOn rate of 250 breaths a minute, or slightly more than four breaths J?Cr secund, is a major task m itself. Hummingbtrds that find themselves trapped in a garage or patio will often starve to· death in a matter of hours. There over 300 species of hu'mmingbirds, and all of them are found only in the Americas, but here in Ohio and West Virginia, the most common hummingbird is the · ruby-throated hummingbird. The average ruby-throated hummingbird is 3 to 3 314 inches long, with a wingspan of 4 to 4 314 inches. The adult male has a red throat and a slightly forked tail. The red appearance depends upon the angle of light falling on the bird's throat area. In dim or indirect light, the throat may appear black. Hummingbird feeders can be easily made or purchased; don't spend a lot of extra money on "hummingbird nectar," sugar water works just fine. Homemade nectar can be made from one part white, granulated table sugar to four parts water; it isn't necessary to add coloring to t~e sugar water, in fact the red coloring may harm the birds. Contrary to popular belief, hummingbirds' bills are not hollow like a straw; althoujlh their bills are long and thm, they do have a top and bottqm portion like any other bird, and they use their bills to catch small insects which they need for fat and protein. While it's not a bad idea to feed the hummingbirds, just don't neglect your feeders once you begin; because at any moment hummingbirds are just hours away from starvation, although they do slow down their metabolism at night. It's hard to believe that our hummin~birds are migratory, making the long journey from Souih America or Central America every spring, crossing 500 miles over the Gulf of Mexico. Old timers often believed that hummingbird_s would hibernate over the winter in lake mud rather than migrating. How they manage the long non-stop, over-wate'r flight over the gulf is any' one's guess. One old legend says hummingbirds ride on other, larger birds, particw larly geese, during their long migrations; however there is no proof of this. '.

CLEVELAND (AP) Ryan Garko watched his grounder head toward shortstop Juan Uribe and had only one thought. "Routine," he said. "I thought I was out." White Sol'. pitcher Mike MacDougal did, too. "Inning over," he said. Hardly. Garko's hard-to-believe RBI single helped Cleveland rally for six runs in the eighth inning as the Indians won their seventh straight, 8-5 over the Chicago White Sox, whose sorry season got wqrse Friday night. The Indians did nothing against starter Mark Buehrle for five innings and trailed 5-0 in the sixth before coming back against Chicago's heinous bullpen - with two outs in the eighth - to move 20 games over .500 for the first time this season. Cleveland improved to 123 since Aug. 15 and opened a season-high 5 112-game lead over the second-place Detroit Tigers. "It took a funny hop," Garko said. "Sometimes nothing goes your way, and all of a sudden we're catching breaks." Down by three entering the eighth, the Indians got a two-out RBI single from Victor Martinez to make it 5-3. MacDougal (1-5) came on and appeared to get an inning-ending groundout, but Garko's bouncer toward Uribe hit the infield's grassy lip and bounded over the shortstop's head, bringing Cleveland within 5-4. "It was beautiful," Blake said. After Jhonny Peralta walked to load the bases, pinch-hitter Kenny Lofton, whose bases-loaded walk in the ninth inning brought in the winning run on Thursday a~ainst Seattle, drew a fourpttch walk from MacDougal to force in the tying run. · Blake went to a full count, and with the runners moving, he reached out for a ball on the outside comer and slapped his double over the bag at first. "We kept scrapin~, clawinjl and scratching, ' Bl.ake satd, "and we got a little help." The White Sox have lost I 0 straight road games for the first time since 1977, and following their latest loss, manager Ozzie Guillen, who has spent the past few days venting about his club's poor season, could only shrug his shoulders. "It's getting to the point where you want to laugh," he said. "It's not easy. Sometimes you erupt and sometimes you just i:ake the beating." Aaron Fultz (4-2) pitched two scoreless innings and Rafael Betancourt, filling in for overworked closer Joe Borowski, worked the ninth for his first save since Sept. 28 last season. . In Chicago's fateful eighth, MacDougal threw 25 pitches- only 7 for strikes. "I couldn't throw the ball where I wanted to," he said. Buehrle was in line to win for the first time in five starts before his bullpen let him down again. Chicago's bullpen finished August with a 10.05 ERA. • Two years ago, everything fell into place for the White Sox, who won their first World Series title since 1917. There's a lot of baseball to be played, but the Indians are having a special run of their own. "Obviously, it's frustrating," Buehrle said. "But that's the way our season is going and that's the way their season is going. The left-bander threw a no-hitter against the Rangers in April and looked like he might flirt with another one, He cruised through Cleveland's lineuf the frrst time, retiring 1 straight before Travis Hafner singled to right with two ·outs in the fourih. · Josh Fields had two RBis for the White Sox, who have dropped 17 of 20. Chicago scored th~e runs in the sixth off Indians starter Fausto Carmona, who hadn't given up four runs or more in any start since June 27. . Down 5-0, the Indians finally put something together in the sixth off Buehrle, who had limited them to just one hit through five. Franklin Gutierrez singled in Cleveland's first run · and the other scored on a fielder's choice by Martinez. Notes: Home plate umpire John Hirschbeck was ·struck on the right kn~e by a foul tip in the sixth. inning. Hirschbeck, 52, laid flat on his back for several minutes in obvious pain before being checked by an Indians trainer. He stayed in the game, and in the seventh he was hit by a foul tip on his padded right shoulder.... Indians 2B Josh Barfield, benched earlier this month for rookie Asdrubal Cabrera, went 1for-2 in his first start since Aug. 15.

GALLIPOLIS - Ariel Theatre Executive Director Joseph Wright proudly leaves behind a legacy of excellence and prosperity as he prepares to relocate to Tucson, Ariz., later this month. "The Ariel has grown so much over the last three years, thanks .to Joe's hard work and talent," said Kim Vanco, Ariel volunteer. "A lot of times the kids come out not just to be part of a show, but to become part of the family here, and Joe is a big reason for that. His warmth and personality draw people in and the kids just love him." "He's creative, energetic, professional and enthusiastic," said Michele Black, Ariel volunteer. "It's like we're a big family, and Joe's at the head. He mentors the children as a father would by being open and honest without being judgmental. He makes you feel like you're the most important person in the world." Wright credits cooperation, dedication and most of all, teamwork, for allowing him to take the A. riel in new directions, having accomplished a a large amount of progress in just a short amount of time. He has see n the theatre undergo major renovations, formed several acting organizations, and has developed many programs that center around the youth of our community. "The kids are at the top of the list of who I will miss the most," said Wrighi, who ~rad uated from Hannan Trace Htgh School in 1992 before pursuing a degree in elementary education with a fine arts co ncentration at the University of Rio Grande/Rio Grande Community College. "The success of the organization is due to the hard work of the voluntee rs. They are very good at supporting one another." "He's wonderful ," said Shelly Few, Ariel · operations manager. "He's done a really fantastic job of building up the role of the community theatre and he has a great rapport with the kids. It's a good experience for them. Speaking on the stage prepares them for presentations in school and in life." Since taking on the position at the Ariel in September 2004, Wright has been instrumental in the implementation of many monumental changes for the historic • venue. He directed. nearly I0 plays, and was producer for a total of 21 in-house productions while transforming the theatre into a focal point of the community. "We have gone from a handful ·of events in a year to having an event almost every weekend," said Wright. "The facilities are in use over 300 days of every year." "Joe has changed the Ariel in . more ways than one," said Colby Caudill, Ariel volunteer. "He's like the light in a dwk room. He's amazing and fun to work with. It will be horrible when he's gone." Wright has brought crowd favorites like "Disney's 101 Dalmatians Kids," "Steel Magnolias" and "Beauty and the Beast" to the stage, has facilitated original productions like "Ariel Jr. Idol," and has treated the theatre as a member of the community, using its stage to showcase both local talent and major recording artists: ·" In one way or another, theatre has always bec;n a part of my life," said Wright. "It's never the same day twice, and that's what I love the most. You get to experiepce the creative process on a daily basis and watch people grow creatively. The most important part is seeing the kids devel op self-confidence through being. on stage. It's exactly what brough.t me out of my shell." Wright works with everyone involved· in the theatre. froin costum ers and set designers. to actors, actresses and audie nce members. "With all of the different hats he wears in this theatre, he wears them all well," said Black . "We all love him and are going to miss him terribly. He is able to traverse different disciplines and he docs it With grace. style, and respect. "He's good at smoothing out our felithers and letti ng us each be expressive in our own way," she· added. "He takes these kids and gives them a voice of their own:· "No matter what is going on, he lets everyone know that they're important and special , ami that he's sincerely interested in them as an individual," said Vanco.

Supposedly the early Spanish explorers reported that humrmngbirds, which they had never seen before, were a cro~s between birds and insects; it's easy to see why, hummingbirds ordinanly beat their wings anywhere from 40 to 80 times a second, and are the only birds that can fly backwards. I have a neighbor whose hummingbird feeders always seem to attract a large number of the little birds, and it is enjoyable to sit and watch the birds visit. Ordinarily hummingbirds are solitary creatures, but in in the Open Jim Freeman groups they are actually quite !lggressive, and if enough nummers visit your feeders you can watch them fight, buzzing into each other vying for the resources there. Sometimes the busy birds need to take a break and perch on a small limb; this dispels another hummingbird myth, that hummingbirds don' t have legs or feet. · I don't know w!Jat predators hummingbirds face in nature, but feeding and maintaining a metabolism that includes a heartbeat from 250 to I ,200 beats per minute, and a respiratiOn rate of 250 breaths a minute, or slightly more than four breaths J?Cr secund, is a major task m itself. Hummingbtrds that find themselves trapped in a garage or patio will often starve to· death in a matter of hours. There over 300 species of hu'mmingbirds, and all of them are found only in the Americas, but here in Ohio and West Virginia, the most common hummingbird is the · ruby-throated hummingbird. The average ruby-throated hummingbird is 3 to 3 314 inches long, with a wingspan of 4 to 4 314 inches. The adult male has a red throat and a slightly forked tail. The red appearance depends upon the angle of light falling on the bird's throat area. In dim or indirect light, the throat may appear black. Hummingbird feeders can be easily made or purchased; don't spend a lot of extra money on "hummingbird nectar," sugar water works just fine. Homemade nectar can be made from one part white, granulated table sugar to four parts water; it isn't necessary to add coloring to t~e sugar water, in fact the red coloring may harm the birds. Contrary to popular belief, hummingbirds' bills are not hollow like a straw; althoujlh their bills are long and thm, they do have a top and bottqm portion like any other bird, and they use their bills to catch small insects which they need for fat and protein. While it's not a bad idea to feed the hummingbirds, just don't neglect your feeders once you begin; because at any moment hummingbirds are just hours away from starvation, although they do slow down their metabolism at night. It's hard to believe that our hummin~birds are migratory, making the long journey from Souih America or Central America every spring, crossing 500 miles over the Gulf of Mexico. Old timers often believed that hummingbird_s would hibernate over the winter in lake mud rather than migrating. How they manage the long non-stop, over-wate'r flight over the gulf is any' one's guess. One old legend says hummingbirds ride on other, larger birds, particw larly geese, during their long migrations; however there is no proof of this. '.

CLEVELAND (AP) Ryan Garko watched his grounder head toward shortstop Juan Uribe and had only one thought. "Routine," he said. "I thought I was out." White Sol'. pitcher Mike MacDougal did, too. "Inning over," he said. Hardly. Garko's hard-to-believe RBI single helped Cleveland rally for six runs in the eighth inning as the Indians won their seventh straight, 8-5 over the Chicago White Sox, whose sorry season got wqrse Friday night. The Indians did nothing against starter Mark Buehrle for five innings and trailed 5-0 in the sixth before coming back against Chicago's heinous bullpen - with two outs in the eighth - to move 20 games over .500 for the first time this season. Cleveland improved to 123 since Aug. 15 and opened a season-high 5 112-game lead over the second-place Detroit Tigers. "It took a funny hop," Garko said. "Sometimes nothing goes your way, and all of a sudden we're catching breaks." Down by three entering the eighth, the Indians got a two-out RBI single from Victor Martinez to make it 5-3. MacDougal (1-5) came on and appeared to get an inning-ending groundout, but Garko's bouncer toward Uribe hit the infield's grassy lip and bounded over the shortstop's head, bringing Cleveland within 5-4. "It was beautiful," Blake said. After Jhonny Peralta walked to load the bases, pinch-hitter Kenny Lofton, whose bases-loaded walk in the ninth inning brought in the winning run on Thursday a~ainst Seattle, drew a fourpttch walk from MacDougal to force in the tying run. · Blake went to a full count, and with the runners moving, he reached out for a ball on the outside comer and slapped his double over the bag at first. "We kept scrapin~, clawinjl and scratching, ' Bl.ake satd, "and we got a little help." The White Sox have lost I 0 straight road games for the first time since 1977, and following their latest loss, manager Ozzie Guillen, who has spent the past few days venting about his club's poor season, could only shrug his shoulders. "It's getting to the point where you want to laugh," he said. "It's not easy. Sometimes you erupt and sometimes you just i:ake the beating." Aaron Fultz (4-2) pitched two scoreless innings and Rafael Betancourt, filling in for overworked closer Joe Borowski, worked the ninth for his first save since Sept. 28 last season. . In Chicago's fateful eighth, MacDougal threw 25 pitches- only 7 for strikes. "I couldn't throw the ball where I wanted to," he said. Buehrle was in line to win for the first time in five starts before his bullpen let him down again. Chicago's bullpen finished August with a 10.05 ERA. • Two years ago, everything fell into place for the White Sox, who won their first World Series title since 1917. There's a lot of baseball to be played, but the Indians are having a special run of their own. "Obviously, it's frustrating," Buehrle said. "But that's the way our season is going and that's the way their season is going. The left-bander threw a no-hitter against the Rangers in April and looked like he might flirt with another one, He cruised through Cleveland's lineuf the frrst time, retiring 1 straight before Travis Hafner singled to right with two ·outs in the fourih. · Josh Fields had two RBis for the White Sox, who have dropped 17 of 20. Chicago scored th~e runs in the sixth off Indians starter Fausto Carmona, who hadn't given up four runs or more in any start since June 27. . Down 5-0, the Indians finally put something together in the sixth off Buehrle, who had limited them to just one hit through five. Franklin Gutierrez singled in Cleveland's first run · and the other scored on a fielder's choice by Martinez. Notes: Home plate umpire John Hirschbeck was ·struck on the right kn~e by a foul tip in the sixth. inning.

GALLIPOLIS - Ariel Theatre Executive Director Joseph Wright proudly leaves behind a legacy of excellence and prosperity as he prepares to relocate to Tucson, Ariz., later this month. "The Ariel has grown so much over the last three years, thanks .to Joe's hard work and talent," said Kim Vanco, Ariel volunteer. "A lot of times the kids come out not just to be part of a show, but to become part of the family here, and Joe is a big reason for that. His warmth and personality draw people in and the kids just love him." "He's creative, energetic, professional and enthusiastic," said Michele Black, Ariel volunteer. "It's like we're a big family, and Joe's at the head. He mentors the children as a father would by being open and honest without being judgmental. He makes you feel like you're the most important person in the world." Wright credits cooperation, dedication and most of all, teamwork, for allowing him to take the A. riel in new directions, having accomplished a a large amount of progress in just a short amount of time. He has see n the theatre undergo major renovations, formed several acting organizations, and has developed many programs that center around the youth of our community. "The kids are at the top of the list of who I will miss the most," said Wrighi, who ~rad uated from Hannan Trace Htgh School in 1992 before pursuing a degree in elementary education with a fine arts co ncentration at the University of Rio Grande/Rio Grande Community College. "The success of the organization is due to the hard work of the voluntee rs. They are very good at supporting one another." "He's wonderful ," said Shelly Few, Ariel · operations manager. "He's done a really fantastic job of building up the role of the community theatre and he has a great rapport with the kids. It's a good experience for them. Speaking on the stage prepares them for presentations in school and in life." Since taking on the position at the Ariel in September 2004, Wright has been instrumental in the implementation of many monumental changes for the historic • venue. He directed. nearly I0 plays, and was producer for a total of 21 in-house productions while transforming the theatre into a focal point of the community. "We have gone from a handful ·of events in a year to having an event almost every weekend," said Wright. "The facilities are in use over 300 days of every year." "Joe has changed the Ariel in . more ways than one," said Colby Caudill, Ariel volunteer. "He's like the light in a dwk room. He's amazing and fun to work with. It will be horrible when he's gone." Wright has brought crowd favorites like "Disney's 101 Dalmatians Kids," "Steel Magnolias" and "Beauty and the Beast" to the stage, has facilitated original productions like "Ariel Jr. Idol," and has treated the theatre as a member of the community, using its stage to showcase both local talent and major recording artists: ·" In one way or another, theatre has always bec;n a part of my life," said Wright. "It's never the same day twice, and that's what I love the most. You get to experiepce the creative process on a daily basis and watch people grow creatively. The most important part is seeing the kids devel op self-confidence through being. on stage. It's exactly what brough.t me out of my shell." Wright works with everyone involved· in the theatre. froin costum ers and set designers. to actors, actresses and audie nce members. "With all of the different hats he wears in this theatre, he wears them all well," said Black . "We all love him and are going to miss him terribly. He is able to traverse different disciplines and he docs it With grace. style, and respect. "He's good at smoothing out our felithers and letti ng us each be expressive in our own way," she· added. "He takes these kids and gives them a voice of their own:· "No matter what is going on, he lets everyone know that they're important and special , ami that he's sincerely interested in them as an individual," said Vanco.

There were actual!>' at least two large migrations. One came in the late 1860s and early 1870s. Some of these farmers got discouraged by the grasshoppers and left. · Those farms were then bought by farmers who made up the second wave, which went in the 1880s. Grasshoppers destroyed the crops of East Kansas in 1854, 1860, 1866, 1874 and 1875. In the 1875 grasshopper invasion, it was reported that grasshoppers could be found in 7-inch piles across some fields. In some of the histories of Kansas, some people saw the invasion of the grasshopP,Crs as a benefit, in as much as it 'got rid of some of the land speculators. Some farmers were claiming that in spite of the grasshoppers, Kansas was still the best country between the Allegheny and Rocky mountains. The "skyways library" on the World Wide Web has a journal kept by a 19 year old girl of her family's trip from Proctorville, Ohio, to Kansas in 1885. The trip staned on Sept. 15, 1885 •and they reached Garnet, Kan., on Nov. 2, 1885 (the writer's 20th birthday), thus making the 790 mile trip, all by wagon and horseback, in 48 days. They ,spent the first Qight in Arabia. She wrote: I'We have just eat our supper. We had Irish and sweet pota· toes, light bread and butter, onions, coffee, plum butter, blackberry jelly, cookies, bacon and catsup. The men are smflking their pipes and the women washing dishes. Daine Sutherland eat six sweet potatoes for his supper, large ones at that. It is dark and I am writing by the lantern. We have singing all the evening and it sounds real nice for we have all parts. We have the callers this evening." When thect entered into Gallia County, some people thoullht the people were gypstes and so they ran in ·the house and hid. There were 22 people in·two large wagons on this trip. Of course, some people traveled on horseback too. "We are stopping in Gallia County for dinner by a man's house. I don't know the name but he just returned from Kansas last night. He says he lilt:es some parts of Kansas srlendid and thinks he wil move there sometime. The roads we have passed over have been very rough and we have walked a good deal. McDaniel's post office is about half a mile from here. We took dinner by the side of the road in the sun. We camp tonight in Gallia Co. After we got in bed two ladies and two gentlemen came down to our wagon and said they had just got a new organ and wanted to ow if any of us could play but we were in bed and did not get up." The wagon train went to Jackson and the writer made mention that the Jackson County roads were considerably better than Gallia's roads.

In today's growing society, beipg healthy has become a major concern for many people. Many are concerned about their · dietary food intake and the vitamms and minerals· they need to stay healthy and prevent sickness and diseases. Vitamins A and C both play a very important role in how the body functions on a daily ba~is. Newborn babies to senior citizens all need vitamins each day. A wellbalanced diet from the five basic food groups provides adequate Vitamin A and C, when they are consumed in recommended serving sizes. Today, there are many over-the-counter Vitamin A and C supplements to ! choose from; however. they are supplements to our daily diets and should not replace a healthy diet. Individuals sometimes self-prescribe supplements, taking them on the advice of friends, books, television or websites that may or may not be reliable sources. A vitamin supplement may be needed after a valid nutritional assessment by a healthcare provider. Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that stays in the body longer. Vitamin A is found in many fruits and vegetables. Deep orange colored fruits like apricots and cantaloupe, as well as vegetables such as carrots, sweet potatoes, pumpkin and winter squash all contain Vitamin A. Vitamin A is also found in broccoli and dark green vegetables such as kale, spinach, leaf lettuce, mustard and collard greens or bok choy. Beef liver, eggs and dairy products such as fortified milk, butter, cheese and cream are also significant sources. Adults and children should have at least one serving every other day of Vitamin A containing food. An adult serving is abQut one cup raw or 112 cup cooked. For children ages 1-2 years old, a serving is 1-2 tablespoons cooked, or soft/mashed. Children 3 years and older is 2-4 tablespoons. For infants up to I year of age, doctor recommended intakes should be followed . Use caution for food items that can cause choking. Vitamin A's chief functions in the body include: improved night vision, maintenance of the cells and skin, bones and tooth · growth, reproduction and immunity. Vitamin A can be lost by Jetting too much air or light get to the food. Do not keep foods high in vitamin A in clear containers. Too much Vitamin A (in sur.plements) can be harmfu . Eating a variety of foods is the safest way to get Vitamin A. Multivitamin supplements usually provide more Vitamin A than the body needs. If you take vitamin pills, only take the amount equal to or Jess than 100 percent of the RDA (Recommended Dietary Allowance) for Vitamin A.Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin and doesn't stay in the body any longer than neecled. Vitamin C is found in many fruits and vegetables. All citrus fruits, berr-ies and melons as well as cantaloupe: papay~s and mangoes are nch m V1tamm C. Many vegetables such as bell peppers, broccoli, lettuce, tomatoes and potatoes also are significant sources of Vitamin C. · . Adults and children over one year of age should eat at least one serving of Vitamin C containing food every day. An adult serving size is about one cup raw or 112 cup cooked. Children ages 1-2 years old, a serving size 1-2 tablespMns cooked or soft/mashed. For , children 3 years and older, the serving size is 2-4 tablespoons. For infants up to I year old, doctor recommended intakes should be followed. Again, use caution for food items that can cause choking. Chief functions in the body are to help heal wounds, fight diseases, promote growth of skin, muscles andbones, healthy gums and helps the body with absorbing and using iron correctly. Vitamin C can be destroyed by heat and . air. Foods should be stored in air-tight containers.

Don 't add baking soda - it destroys Vitamin C. Extremely large amounts of Vitamin C (in supplements) can be harmful. The safest way to get Vitamin C is by eating a variety of fruits and vegetables daily. If you take vitamin supplements, only ta)'.e the amount equal to or less than I00 percent of the RDA (Recommended Dietary Allowance) for Vitamin C. Remember, the safest and healthiest way to receive adequate vitamin intake is by following a well-balanced diet from all food groups.

There were actual!>' at least two large migrations. One came in the late 1860s and early 1870s. Some of these farmers got discouraged by the grasshoppers and left. · Those farms were then bought by farmers who made up the second wave, which went in the 1880s. Grasshoppers destroyed the crops of East Kansas in 1854, 1860, 1866, 1874 and 1875. In the 1875 grasshopper invasion, it was reported that grasshoppers could be found in 7-inch piles across some fields. In some of the histories of Kansas, some people saw the invasion of the grasshopP,Crs as a benefit, in as much as it 'got rid of some of the land speculators. Some farmers were claiming that in spite of the grasshoppers, Kansas was still the best country between the Allegheny and Rocky mountains. The "skyways library" on the World Wide Web has a journal kept by a 19 year old girl of her family's trip from Proctorville, Ohio, to Kansas in 1885. The trip staned on Sept. 15, 1885 •and they reached Garnet, Kan., on Nov. 2, 1885 (the writer's 20th birthday), thus making the 790 mile trip, all by wagon and horseback, in 48 days. They ,spent the first Qight in Arabia. She wrote: I'We have just eat our supper.

Daine Sutherland eat six sweet potatoes for his supper, large ones at that. It is dark and I am writing by the lantern. We have singing all the evening and it sounds real nice for we have all parts. We have the callers this evening." When thect entered into Gallia County, some people thoullht the people were gypstes and so they ran in ·the house and hid. There were 22 people in·two large wagons on this trip. Of course, some people traveled on horseback too. "We are stopping in Gallia County for dinner by a man's house. I don't know the name but he just returned from Kansas last night. He says he lilt:es some parts of Kansas srlendid and thinks he wil move there sometime. The roads we have passed over have been very rough and we have walked a good deal. McDaniel's post office is about half a mile from here. We took dinner by the side of the road in the sun. We camp tonight in Gallia Co. After we got in bed two ladies and two gentlemen came down to our wagon and said they had just got a new organ and wanted to ow if any of us could play but we were in bed and did not get up."

In today's growing society, beipg healthy has become a major concern for many people. Many are concerned about their · dietary food intake and the vitamms and minerals· they need to stay healthy and prevent sickness and diseases. Vitamins A and C both play a very important role in how the body functions on a daily ba~is. Newborn babies to senior citizens all need vitamins each day. A wellbalanced diet from the five basic food groups provides adequate Vitamin A and C, when they are consumed in recommended serving sizes. Today, there are many over-the-counter Vitamin A and C supplements to ! choose from; however. they are supplements to our daily diets and should not replace a healthy diet. Individuals sometimes self-prescribe supplements, taking them on the advice of friends, books, television or websites that may or may not be reliable sources. A vitamin supplement may be needed after a valid nutritional assessment by a healthcare provider. Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that stays in the body longer. Vitamin A is found in many fruits and vegetables. Deep orange colored fruits like apricots and cantaloupe, as well as vegetables such as carrots, sweet potatoes, pumpkin and winter squash all contain Vitamin A. Vitamin A is also found in broccoli and dark green vegetables such as kale, spinach, leaf lettuce, mustard and collard greens or bok choy. Beef liver, eggs and dairy products such as fortified milk, butter, cheese and cream are also significant sources. Adults and children should have at least one serving every other day of Vitamin A containing food. An adult serving is abQut one cup raw or 112 cup cooked. For children ages 1-2 years old, a serving is 1-2 tablespoons cooked, or soft/mashed. Children 3 years and older is 2-4 tablespoons. For infants up to I year of age, doctor recommended intakes should be followed . Use caution for food items that can cause choking. Vitamin A's chief functions in the body include: improved night vision, maintenance of the cells and skin, bones and tooth · growth, reproduction and immunity. Vitamin A can be lost by Jetting too much air or light get to the food. Do not keep foods high in vitamin A in clear containers. Too much Vitamin A (in sur.plements) can be harmfu . Eating a variety of foods is the safest way to get Vitamin A. Multivitamin supplements usually provide more Vitamin A than the body needs. If you take vitamin pills, only take the amount equal to or Jess than 100 percent of the RDA (Recommended Dietary Allowance) for Vitamin A.Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin and doesn't stay in the body any longer than neecled. Vitamin C is found in many fruits and vegetables. All citrus fruits, berr-ies and melons as well as cantaloupe: papay~s and mangoes are nch m V1tamm C. Many vegetables such as bell peppers, broccoli, lettuce, tomatoes and potatoes also are significant sources of Vitamin C. · . Adults and children over one year of age should eat at least one serving of Vitamin C containing food every day. An adult serving size is about one cup raw or 112 cup cooked. Children ages 1-2 years old, a serving size 1-2 tablespMns cooked or soft/mashed. For , children 3 years and older, the serving size is 2-4 tablespoons. For infants up to I year old, doctor recommended intakes should be followed. Again, use caution for food items that can cause choking. Chief functions in the body are to help heal wounds, fight diseases, promote growth of skin, muscles andbones, healthy gums and helps the body with absorbing and using iron correctly. Vitamin C can be destroyed by heat and . air. Foods should be stored in air-tight containers.

She sniffed the air to see if her feline companions were about, she sent out a tentative "hello" bark, and she listened carefully for clues that someone - or something - was awake . As I watched and listened with her, 1 was reminded of my childhood days of waking up in the middle of the night, watching the clear night sky and listening to the buzzing sounds of the nearby creek life. As I glanced around, I wondered if I was truly hearing the creek life - or if the buzzing was just coming from the electric pole light in the yard. Sounds, sight, scent, and touch trigger memories.

There is still time to enroll in the program, Kool explained. All students in the program are encouraged to attend the orientation session, as it will be a chance for them to get to know the faculty and ]earp more about the program. Students will have the chance to ask questions during the orientation ses· sion, and will also be able to meet other students.

' r' t I I NEW YORK - Call it a guilt trip or a cultural awakening, but some Latino filmmakers feel that the controversy over Ken Burns' upcoming World War II documentary has unexpectedly opened doors for their work at PBS. The maker of "Brown Is the New Green: George Lopez and the American Dream," which airs Sept. 12, said he believed PBS was anxious to air his film before Burns' because "they had egg on their face." The Lopez film is one of five Lattno projects that PBS is airing in the weeks before the start of Bums' "The War" on Sept. 23. Advocates were angered that the Bums eeic did not feature the contributions of Latino soldiers, and their protest this spring forced PBS' best-known documentarian to add such material to the film. The public broadcasting service 10 August distributed ''The Borinqueneers," a documentary .about the primarily Puerto Rican 65th Infantry Regiment in the Korean War. In September, PBS is airing a film about World War II veteran Hector P. Garcia, who fought . tor better treatment of MexicanAmericans; and separate "American Masters' segments on painter Diego Rivera and the artist Orozco. Include the Sept. 8 edition of the concert series "Austin City Limits" featuring Los . Lonely Boys, and that makes it six. "Now is the time," said Hector Galan, a veteran filmmaker who earned the contract to produce new material for Bums' film. "I think we should seize the moment when it is there. said. "I guess somebody had to get in their face to take th.is group seriously." Another filmmaker, Mario Barrera, has been working for four years compiling an oral history of Latino World War ll soldiers. Since the Bums issue surfaced, the Los Angeles PBS station KCET-TV has agreed to air his documentary, he said. Barrera said he had hoped to convince more stations to sign up. But since the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is offering individual PBS stations grants for companion pieces to "The War," many ate choosing to make their own. "I think the individual PBS stations are more inter.ested in the mont!y." he said. PBS' Sloan, who said the grants range between $1,000 and $10,000, are given to help the individual stations create content APphoto unique to their markets.

NBC Universal, Apple in battle over content available:· on iTunes AP TELEVISIO~ WRITER lI NEW YORK - Apple Inc. escalated a dispute with NBC Universal over the pricing of television shows by announcing Friday it would not sell any of NBC's programs for this fall season on iTunes. Earlier, NBC had told Apple that it would no longer allow its programs to be sold via iTunes at the end of the year. NBC Universal-controlled television programming accounts for an estimated 40 percent of the video downloads on iTunes. "We are disappointed to see NBC leave iTunes because we wpuld not agree to their dramatic price increase," said Eddy Cue, Apple's vice president of iTunes. "We hope they will change their minds and offer their TV shows to the tens of millions of iTunes customers." Rather than cut off NBC programs in the middle l~Jf the season, Apple decided to stop before the new fall episodes premiere next month, he said. That would be a blow to fourth-place NBC, which could use the buzz provided by Internet sales for its programming.

' r' t I I NEW YORK - Call it a guilt trip or a cultural awakening, but some Latino filmmakers feel that the controversy over Ken Burns' upcoming World War II documentary has unexpectedly opened doors for their work at PBS. The maker of "Brown Is the New Green: George Lopez and the American Dream," which airs Sept. 12, said he believed PBS was anxious to air his film before Burns' because "they had egg on their face." The Lopez film is one of five Lattno projects that PBS is airing in the weeks before the start of Bums' "The War" on Sept. 23. Advocates were angered that the Bums eeic did not feature the contributions of Latino soldiers, and their protest this spring forced PBS' best-known documentarian to add such material to the film. The public broadcasting service 10 August distributed ''The Borinqueneers," a documentary .about the primarily Puerto Rican 65th Infantry Regiment in the Korean War. In September, PBS is airing a film about World War II veteran Hector P. Garcia, who fought . tor better treatment of MexicanAmericans; and separate "American Masters' segments on painter Diego Rivera and the artist Orozco. Include the Sept. 8 edition of the concert series "Austin City Limits" featuring Los . Lonely Boys, and that makes it six. "Now is the time," said Hector Galan, a veteran filmmaker who earned the contract to produce new material for Bums' film. "I think we should seize the moment when it is there. said. "I guess somebody had to get in their face to take th.is group seriously." Another filmmaker, Mario Barrera, has been working for four years compiling an oral history of Latino World War ll soldiers. Since the Bums issue surfaced, the Los Angeles PBS station KCET-TV has agreed to air his documentary, he said. Barrera said he had hoped to convince more stations to sign up. But since the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is offering individual PBS stations grants for companion pieces to "The War," many ate choosing to make their own. "I think the individual PBS stations are more inter.ested in the mont!y." he said. PBS' Sloan, who said the grants range between $1,000 and $10,000, are given to help the individual stations create content APphoto unique to their markets.

NBC Universal, Apple in battle over content available:· on iTunes AP TELEVISIO~ WRITER lI NEW YORK - Apple Inc. escalated a dispute with NBC Universal over the pricing of television shows by announcing Friday it would not sell any of NBC's programs for this fall season on iTunes. Earlier, NBC had told Apple that it would no longer allow its programs to be sold via iTunes at the end of the year. NBC Universal-controlled television programming accounts for an estimated 40 percent of the video downloads on iTunes. "We are disappointed to see NBC leave iTunes because we wpuld not agree to their dramatic price increase," said Eddy Cue, Apple's vice president of iTunes. "We hope they will change their minds and offer their TV shows to the tens of millions of iTunes customers." Rather than cut off NBC programs in the middle l~Jf the season, Apple decided to stop before the new fall episodes premiere next month, he said. That would be a blow to fourth-place NBC, which could use the buzz provided by Internet sales for its programming. ABC, CBS, Fox and the CW,' and 50 other cable networks, have deals in place to sell fall shows at iTunes' current price of $1.99 per episode, Apple said. NBC wanted Apple to pay more than double its wholesale price for the material, which would have resulted in the retail price increasing to $4.99, Apple said.

For naturalists seeking to restore and spread the chestnut, it is a gold mine. Within one square mile there are four large flowering chestnut trees and hundreds of smaller ones that have not begun to flower. Greg Miller, president of the American Chestnut Foundation's Ohio chapter, said Wednesday he knows of no greater concentration of naturally growmg chestnut trees anywhere else in the state. There are chestnut trees elsewhere in Ohio, he said, but it is typically "one here and one there." "The main significance is they are kind of usable for the breeding program," he said of the trees at the quarry. "We're basically trying to capture their genes." At one time there were 4 billion American chestnut trees. Valued for their timber and whose nuts fed wildlife and served as a cash crop for farmers, the trees flourished among 200 million acres of eastern woodlands that stretched from Maine to Florida and as far west as the Ohio Valley. An Asian fungus began infecting American chestnut trees around 1904 in New York City and nearly wiped all of them out. Most of the chestnut trees in Ohio died in the 1930s. Today, only a· few treesized chestnuts remain; the tallest, at 60 feet, is found in Kentucky, according to the foundation.

For naturalists seeking to restore and spread the chestnut, it is a gold mine. Within one square mile there are four large flowering chestnut trees and hundreds of smaller ones that have not begun to flower. Greg Miller, president of the American Chestnut Foundation's Ohio chapter, said Wednesday he knows of no greater concentration of naturally growmg chestnut trees anywhere else in the state. There are chestnut trees elsewhere in Ohio, he said, but it is typically "one here and one there." "The main significance is they are kind of usable for the breeding program," he said of the trees at the quarry. "We're basically trying to capture their genes." At one time there were 4 billion American chestnut trees. Valued for their timber and whose nuts fed wildlife and served as a cash crop for farmers, the trees flourished among 200 million acres of eastern woodlands that stretched from Maine to Florida and as far west as the Ohio Valley. An Asian fungus began infecting American chestnut trees around 1904 in New York City and nearly wiped all of them out. Most of the chestnut trees in Ohio died in the 1930s. Today, only a· few treesized chestnuts remain; the tallest, at 60 feet, is found in Kentucky, according to the foundation.

Miller said the chapter is still two generations from producing seedlings for the forest. He said the chestnut trees at the quarry willf?robably eventually fall victim to the fungus.

I HIGHGROVE HOUSE, England - The head gardener to Prince Charles here has gotten used to unusual requests from the heir to the Bntish throne. Like the time David Howard was asked if he could cut yew bushes into various shapes to rer,resent the "Platoruc Solids ' from ancient Greece. "I said, 'Yes sir; of course I could,' then worried about it later," Howard said. Charles has other unusual but important requests, too: No chemicals, no pesticides artd no ugly plant labels. He wants a beautiful garden, but also a natural one, something Howard said is quite possible, contraTY. to what many would believe. No pesticides are used on the 15 acres of gardens at Highgrove, Charles' country estate in western England where .birds, slow worms, grass snakes and hedgehogs ambush passing slugs and snails. "I challen~e you to find any r,estictdes on the estate, ' Howard said. "I don't have a pesticides cupboard." · The 49-year-old gardener recently led a media tour of Highgrove, . a two-hour drive from · London, ahead of publication in the U.S. of Charles' new book, "The Elements of · Organic Gardening" (Kales Press). After armed policemen politely stop coaches at a. disguised single-lane countryside entrance even fast drivers will slow down here - visitors are greeted by a large sign: "Beware! You are now entering an old fashioned establishment." The winding estate full of separate gardens, beautiful stone walls and endless tree trunks - can seem less visually slick than most traditional gardens. For good or bad, nature is in charge and there is no unifying theme to link the disparate parts. · "(Or!;!:anic gardening) is an holistic system, which attends to the health of the entire ecosystem and not just the plant's needs," coauthor Stephapie Donaldson writes in the book. She offers tips on conversion, such as collecting rainwater, making your own compost and startin~ with easy vegetables hke courgettes and runner beans. At Highgrove, they aim for containment, not extermination. "Like all of our pests in the garden, we n~ver try to get rid of them completely," Howard said, addmg that squirrels are push'10g the luck at the moment. But one can't have everything· The 70-& t d 0 f · .ee ce ar Lebanon tree - a~ old as the late 1790s .Georgianstyle house it stands beside _ has bracket and honey fungus and will be "partially dismantled" this October. Could a non-organic aPR,roach have saved it? Nothing lives forever," . Howard said. "What you have to do is have something waiting around the comer to fill that space." Another cedar was planted in the early 1990s and is now 30 feet high. Charles, the eldest son of Queen Elizabeth ·II, became heir to the throne in 1952, when Harry Truman was still president. He bought Highgrove near Tetbury in Gloucestershire in 1980, a year before he married the then-Lady Diana Spencer. His second wife is Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall A tree house, now relocated; is a sign of past times when young Princess Diana helped bring· up sons William and Harry, before her death in a 1997 car crash in Paris. Charles turns 60 next year and, with his mother in reported. good health at 81, it's possible that Highgrove could be his biggest legacy. "I get the sense this garden excites the prince and I think that's great," said veteran gardening author Donaldson, during the tour. "I'd say it's his major garden for a lifetime." Make that lots of gardens, including the Cottage Garden, Terrace Garden, Sundial Garden, the Islamic-inspired Carpet Garden, Walled Garden, Model Fruit · Garden, Cutting Garden and Southern Hemisphere Garden. There's also the nearby Home Farm, which provides organic products for Charles' Duchy Originals, a food company founded in 199~ .with profit~ going to chanties supported by the pnnce. 11'.

When he's around, Charles ·helps out on the estate. "He mt'ght clt'p half the hedge and say, 'I've started the hedge for you. Perhaps you can go finish it off?' Howard said. It's also the place where Charles can relax. Black honey bees in 10 hives produce 250 pounds of honey each year, perhaps hel~ed by outside paintings deptct- · ing Slovenian folk tales. Sweet peas trained. over hazel and willow arches offer a blaze of colors.

Previou$1Y ridiculed by British tabloids for his once unfashionable approach to medicine, ..architecture and the environment - the last one may or may not include talking to plants- Charles also has an oak and sweet chestnut timber house. The Sanctuary, a small oddshaped forest retreat where Snow White would happily live, was specially built for the new millennium. Its handleless door has four knobs which mu_st be turned "in a special way." "It's the one place he can escape from the rest of us," Howard sail;!. And, no, he won't reveal the secret combination. But what about those curious Platonic Solids? Howard, who leads a · team of nine full-time gardeners, does his best. The yew bushes are topiarized with equal individual sides ~nd angles, representing fire, earth, air, water and the universe. Charles so liked the result . he asked Howard if he could do the " Archi medean Solids" as well. His answer? "I said, 'No sir'." · ••• .) o t'I:NTS • \ ol. ,-,-.

RACINE - The "Third Annual Cruisin' Saturday Night" car show will roll into Racine this Saturday to , benefit graduating seniors at Southern High School. The hosts for this year are Hill's Automotive Classic Car Restorations, Home National Bank and Gatling, 0hio. The show will take place on Third Street in downtown Racine. Registration is from 1-4 p.m. with judging to take place between 4-6 p.m. Awards will be given out at 6 p.m. and there is a $10 entry fee. Melody McKay of Hill's Automotive Classic Car Restorations is once again helping to organizs:s the event and says this year promises to be bigger and better than ever with 55 trophies being awarded, including a new trophy for best motorcycle and first runner-up motorcycle and best tractor which is open to antique tractors for the first time. ,, In addition to'•. cars and tractors, McKay .,added there will be a "crafter's village" where crafters and artisans who normally set up at the Racine Fall Festival are weicome to set up at the car show since there is no fall festival this year. Those crafters interested in a spot, or those with any other questions should call McKay at 949-2144 or 9492217 or call Rusty at 9924072. Last year the car show raised $1,800 which benefits the Racine Area Community Organization's scholarship fund. Last. year three students were awarded the scholarship money and McKay said students selected are judged not necessarily on grades but their willingness to promote local business and services in Meigs County. Last year 70 cars participated in the show with 64 being judged. This year there will be dash plaques presented to the first 50 who'enter. The major award caregories include: Bes t Original, Best Ford, Best . .
