Acco.rding . to Meigs
County Grants Administrator
Jean Trussell, the village has
seven to 10 days to come up
with the remainder of that
$150,000 either in actual
funds or pledges.
These pledges from nonprofit org&lt;mizations, inuividuals or businesses must go
towards
community
improvements projects, such
as the playground being constructed at the Mulberry
Community Center, or in
short, anything that beneftts
the community.
Trussell saiq anyone wish-

ing to donate to a community
project, even if it's fm a few
hundred dollars to purchase
equipment for the playground
as an example can contact her
or Mayor John Musser.
At this week's community
meeting to discuss ~e CDBG
distress grant, Musser said it
is possible a $50,000 donation will soon be confmned
to the Pomeroy Squad from
the Howard Nolan estate.
Because this donation benefits the community at large it
counts towards the $150,000.
lf that large donation falls
through, Musser told the
audience, ''We're probably
dead in the water, it's that
close right now."

residents of an impending

his family would stay

"We are not going. to

place to go," said the 55yea~-old farmer from the
northern town of Beit
Hanoun. He spoke amid the
boom of heavy artillery fire
and automatic rifles - part
of a massive show of military might designed to force
Islamic militants to free a
soldier whose fate has jolted Mideast politics.
"We have very bad memories of the.lsraeli military,"
he said. "I pray to God that
this time we won't have to

TODAY IN HISTORY
Today is Thursday, June 29. the I80th day of 2006. There
are 185 days left in the year.
Today's Highlight in History :
On June 29, 1776, the Virginia StiJte constitution was .
adopted, and Patrick Henry made governor.
On this date:
In 1767, the British Parliament approved the Tow·nshend
Revenue Acts, which imposed import duties on certain
goods shipped to America. Colonists bitterly protested the
Acts, which were repealed in 1770.
In 1946, British authorities arrested more than 2, 700
Jews in Palestine in an attempt to stamp out alleged terrorism.
.
In 1949, the government of South Africa enacted a ban
.against racially mixed marriages.
In 1954, the Atomic Energy Commission voted against
reinstating Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer's access to classified
·infofQlation.
In 1966, the United States bombed fuel storage facilities
·near the North Vietnamese cities of Hanoi and Haiphong .
In 1967, Jerusalem was reunified as Israel removed barricades separating the Old City from the Israeli sector.
In 1970, the United States ended a two-month military
offensive into Cambodia.
·
In 1972, the Supreme Court ruled the death penalty, as it
was being meted out, could constitute "cruel and unusual
punishment." (The ruling prompted states tci revise their
.
capital punishment laws.)
In 1981, Hu Yaobang, a prote$e of Chinese leader DeQg
Xiaoping, was elected Commumst Party chairman, replacing Mao Tse-tung's hand-picked successor, Hua Guofeng.
In I.995, the shuttle Atlantis and the space station Mir
docked in orbit.
Ten years ago: U.S. allies backed President Clinton's
demand that Bosnian Serb leaders indicted for war crimes
be forced "out. of power and out of influence."
Five years ago: Vice President Dick Cheney, experiencing heart problems for the third time since the November
election, announced he was going back to th6 hospital.
U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan was elected to a second term.

we don't like to talk about
class in the United
States," she said, "but you
really do need to p-ick
your parents well . Who
your parents are has a
very large effect on where
you end up in life as an
adult."
Besides giving children
their genes, well-off parents give them good
preschool preparation, a
bigger property tax base
for their public schools
and, on average, much
better chances for admission to quality hi gher education.
U.S. community colleges create opportunities,
but Sawhill said the
research shows that quality early childhood education - better than what's
now available in the federal Head Start program
- would pay the biggest
dividends.
Which is why the failure of Proposition 82 is so
di spiriting. Granted, it
probably was overambitious, providing universal
preschool rather than
being targeted to the poor.
And it was complicated
by allegations of misuse
of .public funds by its
chief promoter, movie
director Rob Reiner.
Nationally, 65 percent
of parents with college
degrees enroll their children in preschool , compared with 34 percent for
those who didn't graduate
from high school, and 50
percent who did.
To make America really
a land . of opportunity,
both parties should put it
on tl)eir agenda to start
educating kids at age 3.

Iraq, of course.
What nobody's supposed to notice is that if
the White House and
Republicans were truly
serious, one option •would
be increasing troop levels
to deal with metastasizing
sectarian violence among
Iraqi factions . Military
experts, such as Gen. Eric
Shinseki (all-but-forced
out of the Pentagon back
in 2002 for testifying to
Congress that several hundred thousand troops
would be necessary to
pacify a nation as large as
Iraq) warned that the force
Bush was sending was
inadequate to do the job.
So now American sol'
diers find themselves
hostage to foolhardy deci-.
sions made four years ago;
essentially serving as referees and targets of oppor- '
tunity as a civil war breaks
out around them. Bush
can't increase troop levels,
because the public would·

troops existed, which with

Hence '"cut ·n' run," a

slogan more appropriate to

Parishioners sue
diocese for church
property and assets
KANSAS (AP) - Some
parishioners of a church
closed by the Toledo bishop have. sued him and the
diocese for control of the
. former parish's property
and assets, while the diocese maintains it hasn't
violated civil or church law.
Bishop Leonard Blair
closed St. I ames Catholic
Church in Kansas, 40 miles
southeast of Toledo, last
July along with 16 other
parishes. The parishes were
chosen for a variety of reasons, diocese spokeswoman
Sally Qberski said, including a priest shortage, shifting demographics and the
of
other
availability
Catholic churches nearby. .
The Vatican denied St.
James parish 's ap~eal to
overturn Blair 's decision in
November.
The suit, filed in Seneca
County · Common Pleas
Court, says the diocese
"unlawfully deprived the
plaintiffs of the right to
access and worship in the
church facility," which has
been locked since March.
Oberski said the diocese
owns the prop$!rty and is
holding $77 ,957 in parish
funds until the diocese and
parishioners decide what to
do with it.
One of the plaintiffs ,
Steve Johnson , said he
hopes the lawsuit leads to
the reopening of St. James
but doubts . it will happen.
Oberski said the b1 shop
will stand by his decision.

The
Ohio Supreme Court of
Ohio on Wednesday refused
to reopen the appeal of a
man convicted of murder ·
who argued he had ineffective legal help in a case that
he partially handled.
The court previously
threw out the death sentence
Troy Tcnace received for
strangling and stomping a
76-year-old man during a
robbery in 1994 at the ·
man's home in Toledo . The
court said the killer's chaotic childhood with abusive
parents, along with other
facton, outweighed the
crime's brutality.
The decision Wednesday
· means Tenace faces life in
prison when he is . resentenced ' in Lucas County
Common Pleas Court.
Tenace argued that his ·
attorneys should have introduced expert testimony in
court.that explained how his
cocaine addiction played a
role in his behavior. He also
claimed the fact that he partially represented himself
initially could have j~opar­
dized his constitutional
rights. and that his lawyers
failed to raise the issue .
The court found that
Tenace failed to meet the
standard set by the · U.S. ·
Supreme Court 'for establishin~ there was.a "genuine
issue' with his defense.

tigating the incident at
press time. More information will be forthcoming

Changing of·the guards: Cavaliers take two in ~BA draft
CLEVELAND (AP)- As
a high schooler, Shannon
Brown lost an All-Star game
and dunk contest' to LeBron
James.
His days of competing
with James are over thev're NBA teammates.
Brown was selected by the
Cleveland Cavaliers with the
No. 25 overall pick in the
draft Wednesday night, giving the club a needed backcourt scorer and someone to
help get the ball to James.
With their second pick No. 42 overall the
Cavaliers took
Daniel
Gibson, a point guard from
Texas. Later in the second
round, Cleveland selected
Nigerian forward Ejike
Ugboaja.
The 6-foot-4 Brown, a
solid defender and scorer
who also played off guard at
Michigan State, was among

·a group of versatile and tal ented guards taken in the
first round of an unpredictable draft.
"He's a great athlete .
works hard. a gym rat,"
Cavs general
manager
Danny Ferry saiu . "His athleticism is off the charts. He
can make- the open shot, he
can go to the basket. He can
finis h with authority. He
comes from a winning program and all of those things
make us feel really· good
about Shannon."
The Cavaliers were high
on Brown even before he
further impressed coach
Mike Brown during an individual workout last week at
Quicken Loans Arena.

manager Bryan Colangelo
said. "But at the end of the
day, it came down that we
felt that Andrea Bargnani
was really the best pick for
the future of this organization going forward. It's not
about today. It's about today
aild tomorrow and we think
that Andrea is a player that's
not only going to help us in
the short run, but we think
.he's going to grow into a
terrific star in this league."
The 6-foot-10 Bargnani,
the first European 'player
taken first overall , has
drawn the ~omparisons to
the Dallas Mavericks ' AllStar because of his outside
shooting skills. Playing last
season for Benetton Treviso
in Italy 's Lega A, Bargnani

WIMBLEDON, England
- All the ingredients were
in place for Andy Roddick
to
throw a tantrum
Wednesday at Wimbledon.
Struggling · against someone ranked 10 I st, gesturing
and muttering after mi scues,
Roddick already had lost
one set and was dangerously
close to dropping a second
when he thought a line call
was missed.
He flung hi s racket toward
the chair umpire and walked
over. The crowd hushed in
anticipation . And then ...
nothing. Roddick bit hi s
tongue, resumed playing ,
worked his way out of trouble
and
beat Janko
Tipsarevic of Serbia 6-7 (5),
6-4, 7-6 (6), 6-2 with the
. help of 28 aces to ayoid yet
another first-round upset at
a major.
"I pump-faked the argument with the 'umpire," the
No. 3-seeded Roddick said
with a smile. "I just tried to
calm down as much as posgible. I reminded myself that
talking to him probably
wasn't going to change anything at that point."
That he found himself in
such a tough, nearly threehour match set him apart
from all of the top women,
who one by one breezed
through their assignments.

whether such lopsided
matches hurt the push .for
equal prize money at
Wimbledon, the only Grand

less than the .men's. Even
British Prime Minister Tony
Blair weighed in on the
topic Wednesday, telling the
House of Commons he supports the idea of equal pay.
"We aren ' t involved in
arguing the points of time
spent on court, sets played,"
S&lt;!-id Williams, who wrote a
col~n on the subject for an
English newspaper. "That's
a moot topic. What it's really about is being treated
equal as a human being."
On the court, Williams
was as good as she gets for
stretches · against Bethanie
Mattek of the United States,
compiling a 26-3 edge in
winners and erasing the
only break point she faced
with a 108 mph ace.
Mattek is ranked 103rd, is
13-17 this year and was simply thrilled to be on Centre
Court, earning some extra
cash for sponsor labels
hastily sewed onto her
unique ensemble of halter
top, tube top, shorts and
knee- high socks.
"It was kind of hard to do
anything," Mattek said of
trying to haodle Williams'
shots during a 6-1 , 6-0 loss
in 51 minutes, the same
duration as Sharapova's 6-2,

CINCINNATI
The
eight-game winnin~ streak
that vaulted the Cmcinnati
Reds into fust place in the
NL Central earlier this month
convinced their new owner
that things were headed in the
right direction. ,
The ensuing slump didn't
change Bob Castellini 's
mind.
Castellini extended the
contracts of general manager
Wayne Krivsky and manager
Jerry Narron on Wednesday,
keeping both of them through
at least 2008. The move
showed Castellini's pleasure
with the way the Reds have
improved in a short time,
"We're a game and a half
out," Castellini said. "That's
pretty good for a tearn that
was picked to finish last by
everybody. That's darn
good."
Castellini's first major
decision when he acquired
the team in January was to
fire ~eneral manager Dan
0' Bnen. The Reds were
coming off their fifth consecutive losing season, their
longest slump in 50 years,
and Castellim wanted immediate change.
He hired Krivsky from a
group qf eight candidates,
giving him a two-year contract with two option ·years,
The Reds exercised the
option
for
2008
on
Wednesday, leaving the
option for 2009 intact.
"Just to be here for four
months and have the option
picked up is very humbling,"
Krivsky said.
Kri vsky got the job right
before the start of sprmg
training, leaving him with littie time to overnaul a flawed
roster. He acquired catcher
David Ross , first baseman
Scott Hatteberg and second
baseman Brandon Phillips,
all of whom are regulars

who is the team's top 'starter
and one of the NL's top pitchers. With Arro~o leading the
way, the Reds rotation has
improved from one of the
NL's worst to one of its best.
"We're hap~y with the
direction we re going,"
Castellini said.
Narron was the bigger
question in the team's longrange plans. He took over last
season after. Dave Miley was

2006 with an option for one
more year. He knew that new
owners tend to bring in their
own people for important
positions.
Adroitly juggling a roster
that has three catches and, at
one point, featured four second basemen, Narron has
kept the Reds in contention
while keeping his players
content.
"I've got about 13 guys
who would like to play every
night, and oni,Y eight of them
can go out,' Narron said,
refemng to his lineup for a
game Wednesday nigh:t
against Kansas City. "It's not
the easiest thing in the world
sometimes."
Before he took over the
team in January, Castellini
talked to former Reds and
Devil Rays manager Lou
Piniella about the job,
Castellini said Piniella was
required to sit out this season
as part of his agreement to
leave Tampa Bay, ·
That left Narron with what
amounted to a one-season
audition, After watching him
for nearly half of a season,
Castellim decided to extend
his contract by two years
through 2008, with an option ·
for one more year.

shallow pop fly with the
bases loaded that fell
between left fielder Taguchi,
inserted as a defensive substitute in that inning, and shortstop Eckstein, was the key to
the Indians' eighth. Eckstein
appeared to peel away and
Taguchi had his glove out but
missed the ball, then recovered too late for any play on a
ball ruled hit.
Sizemore singled off
Randy Flores to start the
eighth and Ronnie Belliard
followed with a double off
when
Braden

Encarnacion missed a divin~
attempt in right. Martinez
infield hit, a chopper that
Tyler Johnson could not
glove cleanly, cut the deficit
to one.
Travis Hafner, making his
first pinch hit appearance of
the season, walked off
Isringhausen to load the
bases and the misplay on
Hollandsworth's
pop-up,
ruled a single, tied it. Boone
followed with a sacrifice fly
to give the Indians their first
lead.
The Cardinals scored twiee'l
in the fourth despite a baserunning gaffe by Jim
Edmonds that might have
robbed them from a bigger
inning. Edmonds overran
third on a wild pitch by Jake
Westbrook that would have
put runners on second and
third with one out, and was
thrown out trying to get back
by Martinez, the catcher.
Encarnacion and Molina took
him off the hook with RBI
singles for a 2-0 lead.
Sizemore's RBI single cut
the deficit to one in the fifth .
and Rolen restored the tworun cushion for the Cardinals
with his lOth homer to :
straightaway center in the
sixth.
tacked on two more tallies
in the fourth frame.
Micah Cardwell started

innings for Gallia in taking
the loss. Wells took over

Catcher Kelly Shoppach,
who had entered in a double
switch in the eighth, dropped
So Taguchi 's pop fly just in
front of home plate to start
the inning for a two-base
error and Aaron Miles' RBI
double off Bob Wickman (13) with one out tied the score.
Miles was on third on David
Eckstein's routine two-out
grounder, a throw in the dirt
by Peralta that eluded first
baseman Victor Martinez.
Martinez had moved from
catcher to fust in the eighth.
When the winning run
scored, fans tossed hundreds
of seat cushj.ons, the giveaway for the game, onto the
field.
Jason. lsringhau·sen (2-3)
gave up Aaron Boone's goahead sacrifice fly in the
Indians' three-run 'eighth.
· Isringhausen, who allowed
two hits and no runs in I 2-3
innings, was one of four
relievers used by the
Cardinals in the eighth.
Grady Sizemore had four
hits and an RBI for the
Indians, who had ended a
string of seven straight series
losses by winning the first
two games.
Chris Carpenter left with a
3' I lead after working seven
strong mnmgs and Scott
Rolen homered for the
Cardinals. Juan Encarnacion
and . Yadier tvtolina had an
RBI apiece for St. Louis,
which was outscored 68-28
during the losing streak, most
of the games blowouts.

The opener bids one ol a major, showing ,
at least a five-card surt . Many pairs play
tha~ if lhe responder answers in a lowerranking suit al the two-level, his bid is
natu ral and game-forcing. Bul if that is .
the case, what does the responder do
with a long suit and garne·inv~ational
values' (In the old days, he bid lwo, then
three of his suit.)
I like to jump to lhe th ree· level ; for example, one spada- three clubs. That shows
some 9·11 high-card points, six or s91/en
clubs, and fewer than three spades. With
no club f~. the opener will pass unless
strong: wilh a tit, he is being enc6uraged 1
to convert to three no-trump.
Assuming we do lhat. whal does the
responder do with a weal&lt; hand and a
