"I can tell you that people •Jse all kinds of things for cOntainers,'' McCoy said. "Dishpans, five-gallon buckets, Rubbermaid totes and large salad bowls." Then there are the collec- . tor's items that sell anywhere from $50 to a few thousand dollars, said Peter Cilio, vice president of product development for Campania International Inc., a manufacturer of garden ornaments and containers at Quakertown, Pa. "You can go so large that they're not considered containers anymore," Cilio said . "They're more like jars or fixtures and because of their size, they're often kept empty." Whatever the price, containers are not what they used to be, McCoy ·said. "Years ago, you had four choices: terra cotta, stone, iron and plastic that looked like plastic - and the colors were stone and terra cotta. "Today, containers come in every color of the rainbow · and with funky patterns and .high-fired glazes,'' she said. • "For many style-conscious gardeners, the container itself is the focal point around which the flowers and plants are selected to coordinate · with the color scheme of the container." The container look obviously hasn't gone unn'oticed. Retail sales for container gardening rose from $l.l96 billion in 2004 to $1 .29S billion in 2005, or an· increase of about 8 percent, the National Gardening Association said in a recent survey. The sale of products used for container gardening has been one of the fastest growing consumer lawn and ·garden 'c ategories . over · the past five years, the study said. Container gardens are growing so popular .that they're shaping landscaping ,trends all their own. One such trend is called "pot-scaping," McCoy sald. That's where containers are removed from decks and paiios where for years they had been lined up like troops in a parade. Pot-scapers now arrange them in clusters for greater impact.

Auto Sales lot on East Main Street, going on a crime spree, and then burning the vehicle. Pomeroy Chief of Police Mark Proffitt said . that \:'incent C. DeMarco, 25, of Vancouver, Wash. and Jason W: Pierce, 18, ·of Pomeroy along with a juvenile, all admitted to their participation in stealing the vehicle and later burning it. . DeMarco and Pierce were arraigned before Judge Scott Powell in Meigs County Court. Pierce was released on his own recognizance, but a bond of $50,000 was set.for DeMarco at the request of an attorney from the Meigs County Prosecutor's Office. Proffitt said the attorney asked for the bond because he considered PeMarco a flight risk since he allegedly has a past criminal history and · also allegedly made threats against Pierce. As {)f late Friday DeMarco remained in the Meigs County jail. The juvenile is under the jurisdiction of the Meigs County Juvenile Court. Assisting in the investigation which continues are the Pomeroy Police, the Meigs County Sheriff's Department, Harry Barber, a State Fire M arsliall officer, and Paul Gerard, investigator with the prosecutors office. The vehicle was taken from the Story sales lot about S:30 a.m. on June 1, burned and recovered the same day on Story's Run in Gallia County. After stealing the Jeep, the trio. allegedly went on a crime spree, according to Proffitt, anempting break-ins at stores in Langsville and Salem Center. Book . value of the 1995 Jeep Cherokee, the police chief said, is $8.500. Proffitt again emphasized that crime will not be tolerated in Pomeroy and warned ,that the stiffest penalty possible will be sought for the perpetrators. Southern approves contracts with ..

William Jefferson of his committee assignment while a federal bribery investigation · runs its course. · The rank and file acted despite a last-minute plea by the embattled Louisiana lawma~er and per~istent complamts from the Congressional Black Caucus that there was neither rule nor precectent for the action. Jefferson bas not been indicted and maintains his innocence. In remarks to reporters, he conceded that "serious allegations" swirl .around him . After weeks of (lefiance, he also left open the possibility that he might at last surrender the seat voluntarily before the issue teaches the House floor for fmal action. "I don't want , to speculate," he said. Within an hour of the vote, Jefferson disclosed he had offered on Wednesday to step aside_ on the condition . that the caucus establish a rule covering cases like hi~ and that his seat on the 'powerful Ways and Means Committee go temporarily to a fellow Louisiana Democrat, Rep. Charles Melancon. "Ms. Pelosi politely declined my offer," he said in a written statement, referring to Rep. Nancy Pelosi of California, the Democratic leader. Pelosi's office confirmed the exchange. The three-hour closed door meeting marked the culmina. tion of a drive by Pelosi to take action. "This. isn't about proof in a court of law. This is about an ethical standard," she told reporters. . "I wish the White House would follow our lead on this," she added.

Today is Monday, June 19, the !70th day of 2006. There are .195 days left in the year. , Today's Highlight in History : On June 19, 1865, Union troops commanded by Maj . Gen. Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, with news that the Civil War was over, and that all slaves were free. (The anniversary of this celebration is called "Juneteenth.") On this date: In 1586, English colonists sailed from Roanoke Island, N.C., after failing to establish England's first permanent settlement in America. . · In 1917, during World War I, King George~ ordered theBritish royal family to dispense w1th German utles and surnames. The family took the name "Windsor." In 1934, the Federal Communications Commission was created; it replaced the Federal Radio Commission. In 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was approved by the Senate, 73-27, after surviving a lengthy filibuster. In t982, in a case that galvanized the Asian-American com· munity, Vincent .Chin, a Chinese-American, was beaten to death outside a nightclub in Highland Park, Mich., by two aut0 workers who later received probation for manslaughter. In 1986. artificial heart recipient M1,may P. Haydon died in Louisville,. Ky., after 16 months on the manmade pump. Five years ago: Strapped to the same padded gurney on which Oklahoma City bomber Timothy Me Veigh died, drug kingpin Juan Raul Garza received a chemical injection and became the second inmate in eight days to be executed by the U.S. government.

Discussing the "war on terror" has been endlessly awkward. Terror like a blitzkrieg, sneak-attack or disinformalion - is a tactic, not an enemy. But in our politically-correct era; we dwell on the tactic, never defining the eriemy. Drop 500-pound bombs on his head if w.e must - and we must - but doil 't describe him as an Islamic jihadist in the age-old tradition of Islamic jihadis going ba,sk to Muhammad. Such historical precision might be hurtful and insensitive, and we wouldn't·want that. Indeed, as a matter of A!Jlericaf! foreign policy, we don't want that. Better to keep things vague and indirect, much as the Victorians are reputed to have done to avoid giving offense in the drawing room. Once upon a time, We the People were crass enough to have repelled a German blitzkrieg, defied Japanese sneak attack, and even, some of us, combated Soviet ,disinformation. Now, We the Peoples are "enlightened" to the point where we send armies out for years to fight generic "terror" -· no matter how specifically Islamic that it is. There are many reasons why this matters, not least of which is that, without under' standing the religious nature of jihad (holy war) , along with its sister institution of dhimmitude (inferior status · of non-Muslims under .Our maln concem in all stories is to be ~ccura1e.

PageA6 OHIO The Daily Sentinel Monday, June 19, 2006 nhistorv j AP RELIGION WRITER COLUMBUS - Delegates at the Episcopal General Convention gasped Sunday . when they learned that Bishop Katharine Jefferis Schon would become the first woman to lead their church. Around the world, fellow Anglicans hearing the news probably did the same. Jefferts Schori was elected presiding bishop, making her not only the leader of Episcopal Church but the first woman to lead any member · of the global Anglican Communion. The Am~rican delegates later cheered as Jefterts Schori, the bishop of Nevada, was presented following closed-door balloting, and they confirmed her election. But the initial gasps throughout the vast convention hall when SGhori 's name was announceu signaled more than surprise - . three years after breaking · new ground and causing a deep rift by electing Anglicanism's first openly gay bishop, . the Episcopalians had challenged tradition again. "I am awed and honored and deeply privileged to be elected," Jefferts Schori said to the delegates, with outgoing Presiding Bishop Frank Griswold at her side. . She also will need to be diplomatic. Episcopalians have been sparring with many in the other 37 Anglican provinces over homosexuality, and a female leader adds a layer of complexity to the already troubled relationship. Only two other Anglican provinces - New Zealand and ·Canada - have female bishops, although some allow women to serve in the post. Still, there are many Anglican leaders who believe women should not even be priests.

At the General Convention where Jefferis Schori was elected, delegates have been debating whether to appease Anglican leaders by agreeing to temporarily stop ordaining · gay bishops. . In 2003, the Americans shocked the Anglican world by electing the first openly ·gay bishop - V. Gene Robinson of New Hampshire. Placing a [emaJe bishop at the head of the denomination may further anger conserva- tives overseas and within the U.S. church. And Jefferts Schori voted to confirm Robinson. "I will bend over backward to build relationships with people who disagree with me," she pledged at a news conference. Whether that will be enough will play out in the months ahead. The Rev. Canon Chris Sugden, a leader of the Anglican Mainstream, a Church of England conservative group, · said Jefferis Schori's election "shows that ihe Episcopal · leadership is going to do what they want to do regardless of what it means to the rest of the communion." • ' .

C L A S S ·I F I E D Mickelson collapse ·gives Ogilvy the U.S. Open. Brewers double up 'J!ibe MAMARONECK, N.Y. (AP)- Phil Mickelson's bid for a third co nsecutive major ended with a shocking collapse Sunday when he bungled his way to a double bogey on the final hole, giving the U.S. Open to Geoff Ogilvy. The winning shot in this test of survival at Winged Foot was Ogilvy's 6-foot par putt that he figured was only good for second place . The memory will be Mickelson on the 72nd hole, one minute on the verge of joining Tiger Woods as the only players over the last 50 years with three strai ght majors, the next minute looking like the Mic~elson of old with a reckless attempt to get out of trouble. "i still am in' shock that I did that. I just can't believe that I did that," Mickelson said. "I'm such an idiot." The celebration took place not on the 18th green, but in the clubhouse. Ogilvy, whose resiliency carried him to the Match Play Championship in February, closed with a 2-over 72 in the highest-sconng U.S. Open since 1974 at Winged Foot. He became the first Australiaw to win the U.S. Open since David Graham in 1981. "I feel for Phil," Ogil vy said. "He's won a fe~ majors recently, so I can t"i!ke one away." • Ogilvy certainly did hi s part. Battling · to the very end, AP photo Geoff Ogilvy, of Australia, holds the championship trophy after winning the U.S . Open golf tournament at Winged Foot Golf Club on Sunday 1n Mamaroneck, N.Y. the 29-year-old Aussie holed an 18-foot chip to save par on the 17th hole, and then got a miserable break on the 18th hole when his tee shot landed m a divot. His approach lost power as it reached the green, tumbling down the slope. Unlike two other players before him Colin Montgomerie and Jim Furyk - Ogilvy made the putt. Even so, this was Mickelson's major to win, and the first ·one he threw away. Instead of being linked with Woods in the majors, the comparisons turned to Jean Van de Velde at Carnoustie in 1999, when the Frenchman took triple bogey on the last hole of the British Open. But at least Van de Velde got a chance 111 a playoff. Mickel son could only cup his hands over ht s cap and acknowledge a New York crowd that he disappointed again. And he had only himself to blame.

And while he found a way to escape most times, Winged Foot got its vengeance at the end. His tee shot on the 18th went so far left that it clattered, through the trees by a corporate hospitality tent, into the trampled rough. Instead of playing out to the fairway ,and trying to get par - just as Payne Stewart and David Toms had done in beating Mickelson in majors - he went after the green and hit a tree, the ball advancing only 25 yards. The third shot sailed left of the green ;md buried in the bunker, plugged so badly that Mickelson had no chance to get close to the flag because the green ran away from him. He blasted out and through the green, into more rough. Success from Page 82 Charged Thunder division, two jet dragsters, two wheelslanders and, of course, the King of Quake Bob Motz. In his 26th' year of running his 20,000 hp semi dragster, Motz was determined to conquer the track where, last year, his chutes tangled and he hit the sand pit at over 150 mph. This year, with fans anxious to see the powerful semi and its incredible fire trail, Motz didn't disappoint as he not only completed hi~ run, but did so in impressive . fashion. With a jet engine strapped on the back of a seemmgly ordinary semi, this truck is certainly not fit for the road.

Kahne drove into the lead on lap 117 and pulled away from Edwards, who got past the fadi ng Sorenson on the next lap. The last caution flag came out because of rain on lap 124 and, whet) the heavy rain began on lap 129, NASCAR stopped the cars with a red flag . Minutes later, the race was called. Kahne - who has five career win s, four from the pole - - was fast throughout the weekend, despite crashing during the final practice sess ion Saturday. That forced his team to repair the right side of the Charger. fromPage81 While Kahne was struggling to get back into contention, Carl Edwards, who had two top-fiv.e finishes on the 2-mile Michigan oval · last year in his first full season in Cup, moved to the front in his No. 99 Rou sh Racing Ford and appeared to be the car to beat. On lap 112 of the race scheduled to go 200 laps, Kahne barely beat Edwards out of the pits in a battle for fourth place under caution flag - one of a track recordtying nine yellows. After the green flag waved on lap 116, Kahne , who had a Sweep from Page 81 1 ' body in the stands for the White Sox - they came to support their team. I understand why Reds fans are mad. We're not being consistent." One of the AL's most balanced offenses showed it can win by doing the little things. Chicago had . five bunts, playing it · modest for the first seven innings. Then, it got the two clinching homers - Dye I . I "There were a lot of good cars," Kahne said. "We fought our way back to the front. The guys rebmlt my car from yesterday and it was still great." Edwards finished second, his best finish of the season, followed by Dale Earnhardt Jr., defending race winner Greg Biffle, Sorenson and se ri~s points leader Jimmie Johnson. With dark clouds rolling across the speedway and rain obviously on the way, several teams tried strategies to get their cars to the front. Brian Vickers took the lead when he stayed on track wh-ile the rest of the leaders pitted on lap 81, but that proved to be too. soon and Vickers wound up fading to 17th. ' . followed Garland's homer with a three-run shot in the ninth off Mike Burns, just back from Triple-A. Garland (6-3) is behind his pace from last season, when he went ·11 2 in lfis first 13 starts. The ri ghthander has given up a lot of homers - 19 - and· a lot of big innings. He managed to avoid both of ,those downfalls in a ballpark .where the ball flie s, retiring 1'3 in a row bef9re Phillips si ngled to start the ninth . "He threw really well," Chicago manager Ozzie Guillen said. "In his last two outings, he 's gotten a at the Thunder Jam event at totaling the car. And with a new vehicle comes a few rroblems, as he had trouble al night long getting his jet dragster to start. But each time to the line, the Cannonball Expres's did not disappoint. Eatmg 80-90 gallons of fuel per run, the dragEdwards took the lead from Vickers on lap 88. By that time, Kahne had moved back into,the top I 0 and was chasmg down the leaders. When what·turned out to be the final' pit stop began, Edwards was leading and Kahne had moved up · to fourth . "I guess Kasey beat us out by a foot," Edwards said of the final exit from the pits. "Congratulations to him. When I started" to realize how pivotal that was going to be as far as the outcome of the race I said l' d really like to see that tape . ' They showed it and he de{initely beat us." Asked if he felt he would have won if the race had gone all 400 miles, Kahne said, "I know we would have . lot of ground balls. Last year, he had a good change-up. It looks like he's starting to get ·the feel for it again." Aaron Harang (7 -4) matched Garland through five scoreless innings, having fully recovered from a virus .that limited him in his last start. The White Sox, finally brokf! through in the six th, when Jim Thome walked, Dye singled and Pier..:ynski sacrificed for the first out. Cintron singled to score Thome for a 1-0 lead. Guillen then gambled and lost. The White Sox ,tried a squeeze with I -· MILWAUKEE (A P) Carlos Lee 's three-run homer in the bottom of the ninth lifted the Milwaukee Brewers to a 6-3 victory over the Cleveland Indians on Sunday. Lee's blast to right-center field gave the Brewers a three- , game sweep of the Indians, who have lost 10 of their last 13. , It was Lee·~ first career walk-off home run. Gabe Gross led off the ninth with a double, and went to third on .a sacrifice bunt by Rickie Weeks. Cleveland intentionally walked Corey Koskie to get to Lee. Rafael Betancourt {0- 3) took the Joss. Derrick Turnbow {4-3) pitched the ninth to get the victothe BreWC!(S squandered a ehance to take the lead in the eighth, putting runners on first at!d second with one out but failing to score. Chad Moeller popped out, and pinch hitter Jeff Cirillo .h it a deep fly ball that was caught at the warning track in left field to end the inning. Milwaukee's Prince Fielder tied it at 3 with a leadoff home run in the sixth, his 13,t h homer of the year. . The Brewers had to come from behi!ld after a shaky start by rookie Zach Jackson. Manager Ned Yost pulled the · highly regarded !eft-h~nder after he allowed etght htts m the first three innings. Geremi Gonzalez relieved Jackson in the fourth and allowed a leadoff triple to Grady .Sizemore. Sizemore scored on a sacrifice fly by Eduardo Perez, gtving ster shaped like a train amazed the crowd each time down the track. Also on hand for Saturday's event was a pair of wheelstanders. The Little Red Wagqn made the first run of the evening, making three passes down the track trying to get his v~thicle to stand on its back wheels, but on his third run, the rear end broke on the vehicle shaped like a kids wagon. However the second dragster, Blastro, did not disappoint. Not even scheduled to appear, the 1985 Chevy Astro Van with an attitude produced a 330 ft. burnout which blanketed the crowd in smoke before making its run. Taking over · 14,000 hours to build from 1990 to 2004, Blastro is a street legal, all steel motorhome complete with a television, air conditioning and can seat up to four while blasting down the · track with a seven second time. ' Finally, I 0 vehicles from the Super· Charged Thunder division made passes down the track, bringing the crowd to their feet each time with the powerful engines shaking the ground as each rnade its run. As always, Thunder Jam · produced a nigltt full of excitement as the event grows bigger and bigger challenged for it. I know Carl, Greg, the Hendrick cars were good. There were a few of them that were really good and we were one of them ." · The race started nearly an hour late because of rain and was slowed three times by showers before it was filmlly stop'ped. ~ When the cars were able to race, though, the action was furious. The race had barely started when Robbie Gordon spun out on lap four, bringing out the first caution. And Jeff Green nudged reigning series champion Tony Stewart in the rear on lap 22, sending Stewart hard into the wall and relegating him to a 41st-place finish. That cost Stewart a spot in the · Juan Uribe at bat. He popped up the bunt, catcher Jason LaRu~ made a diving catch, and Dye was tagged out a few Steps from home . The White Sox knocked Harang out of Jhe game in the seventh, whe1,11-'fadahito Iguchi singled home a run and Thome had a sacrifice fly after the bottom of the order set up the rally. Notes; Thome made his first start of the season at first base and went 0-for-2 with a walk and the sacrifice fly. Thome, who has been the DH all season, was out of the lineup for the first two games in an Cleveland a 3-2 lead. Yost allowed Jackson to bat in the third, and he hit a sharP single to center for his frrst maJor league hit . Koskie then hit a two-run homer to right, tying it at 2. Despite being hit hard, Jackson kept the damage to a minimum, allowing only two runs- one"of which came on a wild pitch- as the Indians stranded seven runners in the first three innings. With two on and no outs in the third, Jackson allowed an RBI single to Jhonny Peralta, scoring Perez from. second base to go up 2-0. Ronnie Belliard then singled to load the bases . But Jackson got Franklin Gutierrez to pop out, struck out Tim Laker and got pitcher Paul Byrd to ground out to end the inning. Jackson, who earned his first major league victory at Cincinnati on June 12, allowed the first run of the game in the second inning, ki 'ld · h th uncor ng a wt pttc at allowed Belliard to score from third.
