REED · BREED®MYDAiLYSENTINEL.COM POMEROY - The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation has issued a report on its investigation imo nearly $20,000 apparently stolen from the Meigs County Sheriff's Department. Sheriff Robert Beegle said he and Prosecuting Attorney Pat Story met with a BCI investigator. Wednesday afternoon to review the state .investiga- tive agency's findings, and are no·w "digesting" the report. Beegle said he does not expect the report to be made public , because . it is an jnvestigali ve tool. He also would not say if criminal charges are likely to be filed against anyone as a result of the inve stiga·tion report. Earlier this month , County Commi ssioner Jim Sheets said he · and Commissioner Mick Davenport h a~ asked the state investigative agency to issue a final report on its ·investigation into the missi ng money. Sheets said . the county's liability in s ur~ ance company will not pay the county's claim for the stolen money until the investigation is .officially completed. The county stands to recover $ 11 ,070 of the $20,000 reported stolen a year ago. The balance of the mi ssing money is Middleport's to collect, Sheets said. Beegle first discovered the 'WOMEN IN BUSINESS' SERIES money missmg from his department's evidence room and a locker in ~h e county jail on May 6, 2005. $1l .,o?O was being held as evidence in a county drug case.

Oh~o ATHENS (AP) - An Ohio University information technology supervisor expressed shock Wednesday over his suspension related to recent electronic breaches in which hackers may · have stolen 173,000 Social Security numbers from school computers. Thomas Reid, the director of communications network services, said none of the five computer servers broken into since March 2005 were under his management. The university suspended Reid and Todd Acheson, man- ager of Internet and systems, Tuesday pending a disciplinary investigation. The suspensions were recommended in an independent audit as pan of a reorganization of the school's computer seculity. Reid said he was recently interviewed by consultants performing the audit and was given .no indication he would be suspended. "It was the furthest thing from my mind," he said. The university announced April 21 it had discovered a computer breach at its train- ·Stories may bear repeating to make the point sink in ing center for fledgling businesses .

Three other computer administrators placed on leave in May have been reinstated. DEAR ABBY: I just read the letter from "Pete and Repeat in Ohio'' whose inlaws constantly repeat themselves. My mother-in-law does the same thing . She's 61 and has' aone it for at least I0 years. I do not believe it's a sign of early dementia , but it drives me crazy. l think the reason is she cannot stand silence. If there · is a pause in the conversation , she is compelled to fill it with endless drivel abo ut herself or family that's been told 100 times before. Because she doesn '·t seem to 'notice or care if the person she is with is an active listener. I have finally .learned to turn a deaf ear, say ''uh-huh" at the appropriate times and focus on her better qualities, as my husband and father-in-law have done ·for years. - NO LONGER LISTENING IN COLORADO DEAR NO LONGER LISTENING: That letter brought some thought, provoking feedback. Not everyone agreed with me that the woman's problem could be early dementia. Read on: DEAR ABBY: I have another thought. Perhaps the in-laws were trying to elicit an acknowledgment of what they were saying, so they kept saying it . thinking it wasn't si nking in. I find myself doing the same thing when it appears my daughter isn ' t listening or . ha sn't reacted to somethin g I have said - particularly if it's something important to me. 22ndAnnual Community Health and Wellness Fair DAR honors member for 30 years,service POMEROY - Mary Kay Foster Yost was presented a certificate of recognition and a tree ornament for her 30 years of membership and service at the recent meeting of the Return Jonathan Meigs Chapter, Daughters o( the American Revolution.

I do it when I feel the person I am speaking to is blowing me off. patronizing me, misunderstanding me or not acknow ledging me. "Pete and Repeat" should try the followin ~ before sending the older folk ' to a doctor or deciding they have dementia: When Mom and Pop repeat themselves, look them stra ight in the eye, and gently and sincerely acknowledge the message . Example: Say, "Mom, thank you for telling us about the surprise! You always ·plan such great gifts, we can't wait to see what it is." They should teach their children to do the same. "Pete and Repeat" ·may think they are acknowledging their parents by telling them they already heard them eight times. but my guess is the parents are lookin g for a more positive form or affirmation. - LAURIE IN LARAMIE, WYO.

Her children wrote it off as. "old age," but her daughters-inlaw saw it as an early sign of dementia. Unfortunately, we were right. I hope "Pete and Repeat" won't put off encouraging her pare'nts to visit their doctor. Medications can slow the onset of Alzheimer's disease.

True, as Democrats devoutly wish, Bush will go down as a . failed r.resident. But America also will suffer a catastrophic strategic defeat, probably , resulting in domination of the region by a nuclear-armed Iran. It's a future no Democratic presidential prospect should want to inherit. Yet, Democratic leaders are falling all over themselves to hasten the process. They disagree about whether to set. a deadline lor withdrawal - and, if so, what the deadline should be - but the overwhelming consensus is for withdrawal. not commitment to victory. Surely the most irresponsible positions are those taken by House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and ex-hawk Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa., who want virtually immediate withdrawal, ·and by Sens. Russ .Feingold, D-Wis., and John Kerry, 0-Mass., who advocate a full departure by the end of 2006. If something like this suddenly became U.S. policy, one could expect the Iraqi government to collapse much as the South Viemarnese government did in April 1975, alier Congress · rejected President Gerald Ford's appeal for emergency funds amid North Viemarn's final offensive. Next .in line are those like Senate Minority Leader Harry · Reid, D-Nev., who told the left· wing "Take Back America" convention this week that. "the Bush said, "I assured them that we will keep our commit· ment" but added, "I also made it clear to them that in order for us to keep our commitment and be successful, they themselves have to do some hard things. They themselves have to set an agenda. They themselves have to get some things accomplished." · _ · Clearly, if there's any hope for success in Iraq- that is, the _ establishment of a stable, proWestern democracy it depends principally on the Iraqis' ability to control sectarian strife, to cleanse the police and army of ethnic militias, to win the war against Saddarnist insurgents and Islamic jihadists, and to establish an effective, nationally representative government. It's a gigantic order, and it may prove impo~ible.

"You' ve seen a lot of players, like Jordan, a lot of players in history that have really had .those type of performances We tried a lot of different things, but he just had a lot of desire to get it done." The Mavs couldn't get the same production from their star, Dirk Nowitzk.i. Bothered by the phystcal Heat defense of Haslem and James Posey, Nowitzki wasn't able to deliver the types of spectacular perform an.ces he had during Dallas' victories over San Antonio and Phoenix in the previous two rounds. "I had a disappointing play-· off run last year and we got bounced in the second round," Nowitzki said . "I thought we did a lot better obviously this year. We made it to the finals.

Then he added, the lnlallible Galdwyn, 'Don't misunder· stand me, they all ought to be hUng.' Mr. Goldwyn didn't know about 'hanged .'~ We tend to think or computers as intallible, but bridge-playing programs make many mistakes. Some of these, though, are surpris,ng. Take this deal. You are South, In three no-trump. West leads the diamond three. What would be your plan? I was sitting West. My one-spade overcall is no bid ol beauty, but I had 13 points, and one strains to bid spades. Also, when East did not raise spades over North's negative double showing hearts , I thought I knew to steer away hom leading thai. suit - although a lowspade start does defeat the contract! Instead, I led · my fourth -highest diamond. (Yes, the king works much better, but that is hard to lind.) If the dummy had had A·J-9 ol diamonds and declarer two low cards, playing the nine would be sensible. This wins when I have led from theKtO or Q-10. Calling tor the diamond jack wins only when I have ted from the K·O, which is half as likely. (My bid does not signil<:antly change the odds.) Hera, though, declarer has only one sane play: dummy's diamond jack at trick one. lt would have won, and South would have played on dubs to establish (at least) nine tricks.

"We are truly fortunate to have such an outstanding musical group be our featured entertainment at this year's River Rec Festival/' Neal said. "J.P. Pennington, who founded Exile in 1963, and Les Taylor, who joined the group in 1980 to share lead vocal duties with J.P., continue to record and write hit songs; spanning more than three decades. They are the active leaders of the group." It was in 1965, the Dick Clark Caravan of Stars picked up ·~The Ell:iles" to perform in an around Kentucky, They opened shows and provided back-up for some of the top performing artists of that time. They were known for the perfect combination of great music and showmanship, changing theit name to just Exile in 1968. In the fall of-1978, they hit pay dirt with the No. I pop smash, "Kiss You All Over," and began touring with a number of hot pop acts of the late '70s. Top stars, including Alabama and Janie Fricke, along with Kenny Rogers and others, scored hits with Exile , songs. The group w~s on a roll , but the stresses and strains of success were taking their toll. · Both Les and J .P. left Exile in 1988 to pursue solo careers, and all were successful. But the rigors of the road and family com mitments finally prompted Les, J.P. and Exile to lay down . its legacy. They played a farewell concert in Lexington, Ky., and another in Nashville's famed Opry Hou se, and 30 years of great music paused on the country music stage of stages. Fortunate! y, the story does not end there. Both Les and J.P. continued successful but separate careers. Finally, one night, the two performed together, impromptu, on a night club stage in 'Lexington, and began to talk about putting the group back together. They did, and established this trend setting band who maintain a commitment to high energy delivery of hit songs. And, the legacy of Exile lives on. They have sold 8 million singles and albums, worldwide and have II No. I si ngles to their credit. Their list of awards more than fills a page. They tour extensively and Gallipol.is is most fortunate to have Exile here as the featured entertainment for the 41st annual River Recreation Festival, taking the Main Stage on Sunday, July 2 at 9 p.m. Charlie Daniels opener POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. - The 25th Annual Colgate Country Showdown, hosted IQ~:ally by Big Country 99, will take place Friday at the Point Pleasant Riverfront Park.

Like so many other blues musicians. she wen! to Chicago, the blues capitol of the world, in 1976. It was at the Majestic on the West Side of Chicago that Nora sat in with Scottie and the Oasis, and was invited to join the band. 1-!~r big break came in 1985 when Jimmy Dawkins saw her perform at a local Chicago club.

No, !he culprit 'here is the script by Hall and Darin Scott, from a story by Michael Mahern, which steals from "Bonnie\ and Clyde," "Thelma & Louise," ''The Shawshank Redemption" and preiit much every rap video ever e. Former model · rese Gibson stars as 02, an ex-con who goes on a bank-robbing spree with hottie street hustler Coco (Meagan Good) to raise the $100,000 in ransom money he needs to rescue his young son (played by Hall's (eai-Jife son, H. Hunter Hall). · Ghetto cliches and uninten~ tiona! hilarity ensue. But "Waist Oeep" is . so much more concerned with its fantastic-looking actors than with story or character development, ·it should have been called "Skin Deep." Within the film's first few minutes, 02 has stripped down to a tight tank top - which he does while driving a convertible Chevy Impala . .Giant chunks of time are devoted to watching Coco strut around in a wide array of high heels and itty-bitty clothing. What should have been the most emotional scene of allin which 02 talks about the babymama who took his money and abandoned him and their son, and Coco tearfully recalls how she lost her own young boy to a stray bul- let - is shot and edited so distractingly, it's hard to feel connected at all. Curtis repeatedly cuts away, . mid-sentence, to 02's piercing left eye, or Coco's pouty, lip-glossed mouth - all photographed with the tasteful softness of pregnancy-test commercial. ICs a ra1e quiei moment. ' Mostly, "Waist Deep" is about car chases, shootouts and robberies - with an emphasis on hand-held footage and jump cuts - as 02 and Coco pit rival South'Central L.A. gangs against each other while putting together the money they need. The bank heists are fun, though, as the two assume a variecy ,of disguises and comic distractions to pun off their crimes. But then in the midst · of all this action, and while he's supposedly' worried about his son, 02 somehow finds the •emotional strength not enly to hook up with Coco, but to fall in love with her in a mattt;r of days.
