The Buckeye Hills Resource Conservation and (RC&D) Development which manages the dry hydrant program funds in southeastern Ohio, has received a fifth extension on a 2002 statewide grant of $283,000 awarded by the U.S . Forest Service 's Hazard Mitigation Program. The gmnt provides cost share money to help rural fire departments further improve fire protection services to rural residents . . Up to $1.000 is being provided for materials per site. Fire departments and township · trustees provide equipment and labor to equal half of the total cost. Dry hydrants provide protection for tural homeowners auu in man~ instances result in reduction in the cost of fire insurance. according to Meig s Soil and Water Conservation personnel. A ury tire hydrant is a nonpressurized pipe system msta!led in ponds that can provide a reliable source of · water for lighting tires. They, in fact. can be designed to deliver water from 750 gallons per minute to over 2000 gallons per minute, depeniling on several engineering design factors. Fire departments in Meigs County are familiar with the process· of evaluating site suitabilit y and installing dry hyd1ant systen)s because many have already been put into place, said Steve Jenkins of the local SWCD office. The goal with this round of funding is to install at least four more dry hydrants here, he said. Mary Ann Hawk. a representative with the USDA Natmal Reso urces and Conservation Service, and current ly acting district conser\'ationist in Meigs · Cnun ty. said that fire departments make decisions · on need and on whether a hydrant will work in the selected loca'tion. that She· sug'gested landowners interested in having a hydrant installed in their pond should express that interest to the fire department or to the Mei gs SWCD. "Landowners work with the local fire departments and the tru,t.ees also have to be involved in the whole process." said Hawk.

Fifty years ago, Professor Nasaw would have· received an invita'tion to appear before the House UnCommittee on American Activities.

In the new film ."Superman Returns," Daily Planet editor Perry White responds this way after being told the man of steel has come back after a five year absence: "Does he still stand for truth, jLtstice and all that stuff"'' And all that stuff? The original line, of course. was •·truth, justice and the American way." But no way the "American way" gets in the film. That's because Warner Brothers. the studio distributing the movie, doesn' t want to tee off any for eign viewers with pro U.S. sentiment. Jt 's bad enough Superman was raised in the Midwest ; we can' t be having the hero actually standing for the American way, now can .we? Some jihadist in Pakiswn might throw popcorn at the screen.

Despite the wide reach of the Internet and other hightech wavs to deliver messages, people are still using billboards to make personal appeals: to look for a job, find a mate or say thanks for lifesaving assistance. Technology also can make such a public outreach said more effective, Meredith Hurt, spokeswoman for the Outdoor Advertising ·Association of America. People are spending more time away from home, and the proliferation of cell phones, portable wireless computers and text messaging enable motorists to immediately respond to such messages.

The men climb stories into the air. up a set of·rickety switchback stairs to the dome and onto a plywood work platform to do their work: the strippi ng and replacing of a decade-old paint job and the 150 years of unstable pain! and leafing underneath. The work is tedious, periodically dangerous, and occasionally pretty imeresting, said foreman Mark DiGiando of Clevelandbased Dependable Painting. "You 'wonder how they did it the first time," said DiGiando, who has also worked on painting projects at Cleveland's Severance Hall , Federal Reserve Bank and Allen Theater. "They didn't have metal scaffolding then, so they would have had to build it all from wood."

Since April , a small crew of · makeshift Michelangelos has been restoring the rotunda. The rotunda is sc heduled to be reopen to public in September. One day. as the crew was removing paint from one of the florets near the dome's apex, they found an unu sual coin. He said an · earlier paint crew, mo'st likely working on the dome 's 1965 paint job, found a note perched amid the Victorian ornamentation dated 1932 . The rotunda . dome has been painted four times - Water and chemicals used to remove the old paint are sponged and piped into sludge buckets, which are filtered and then removed from the site on an elevator. So far, the crew has used more than 1.000 gallons of paint stripper and removed between 800 and 900 gallons of waste, DiGiando said. Before working with the stripper, a crew member must gear up in a rubber. rain suit, safety glasses and respirator. It was especially · hot, sticky work when the crew began, inches from the top of the dome in muggy, summer heat. Even now, as they move down the walls, getting the paint off the walls remains wet, grimy work. · Not much like Michelangelo, DiGiando said: "What he did was much better than this."

Cleveland's All-Star forward agreed Saturday to sign ~ contract extension of up to five years and worth as much as $80 million with the Cavaliers, a huge relief for the rising team and its fretting fans who worried he might be planning an escape. James, who in three seasons as a pro has turned the Citvaliers from doormats into NBA title contenders, will sign the deal after the league's moratorium ends on Wednesd ay, said hi s age nt Leon Ro se. "I am very excited arid happy to be re-signing with the Cavaliers. Staying in Cleveland ... provides me with the unique opportunity to continue to play in front of my family, friends· and fans," James said in a statement released by his pliblicist. "I · look forward to working toward bringing a championship to our great fans and the city of Cleveland." Unlike fellow 2003 NBA draft classmate Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat, James waited one week after the team made the offer before announcing his intention to take the deal. The delay since July I had Cleveland fans, who have been burned by broken promises before. fearing the worst. But as he has always done, the 21-year-old from nearby Akron came through in the clutch. Ever the showman. James let the drama build before agreeing to a deal that will start after the 2007 season and run through 2012-13. James will make $5.8 million next season, the tina! year on hi s rookie contract.

Wade, Denver 's Carmela Anthony and Toronto's Chris Bosh, had all announced their intent to sign. Almost from the moment the club selected him with the No. I overall pick three years ago, insecure Cleveland fans have worried about a day when James would bolt for a bigger paycheck and brighter spotlight in a booming market like New York.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. didn't come close to challenging Tony Stewart for this past weekend's win in Daytona. .In years past, that failure would have put Junior and his Dale Earnhardt Inc. team in a panic. But those days of fretting over restrictor-plate wins and losses are long gone now. .Junior now is focused on a much bigger picture: Winning his first Nextel Cup . title. "We're ready to run for a title," he said. "We're a hell of a team compared to last year, maybe better than '04." Die:hard E!!rnhardt fahs know that 2004 was the last time Junior .was a legitimate championship contender. He won six races that season, brietly led the points midway through the Chase for the championship, and finished lifth in the linal stand- in~~ then fell to the back of the Nextel Cup standings last year in a season-tong struggle that saw him win only one race, fail to make the Chase and finish an embarrassing 19th in the points. · Now he heads into this weekend's race at Chicagoland Speedway site of that lone win last season - on a turnaround. In the past three races, Junior has climbed from sixth to a season-high third in the standings and is a solid bet to make the Chase. That mentality means the team no longer wastes time fretting over why it didn't run away with the win at Daytona. DEI spent four years dominating Daytona and Talladega - Earnhardt has seven of hi s 17 Cup victories on those two tracks and when the results tapered off, everyone wanted to know why. With a change of focus came the ability to set aside Saturday night's 13th-phice , finish. Any disappointment ' from that is overshadowed by his third-place finish three weeks ago in Michigan, a place Earnhardt routinely has struggled. · In finally putting together a strong ritn there, Eamhardt knew DEl was headed in the right direction . "It was a very, very great feeling to really see there were • some things being done, because you sit there and wonder when we were going to start doing the things we needed to do. When we were going to take these l:Omplaints seriously?" he said. "We are now ad<;lressing these complaints from the drivers and the (Del) teams and the crew chiefs, and we've made some gains." Earnhardt' hasn ' t totally dismissed the plate races. In fact, he made his way to Daytona's Victory Lane for • the first ·time in more than t~o years last Friday by winnmg the Busqh Series nice. It was a dominating victo- . , ry, with E~nhardt leading 88. of 103 laps. It gave him his 21st Busch win, tying him with his late father and Harry Gant for seventh on the career list. ' Earnhardt h&s a ways to go to catch hi s dad in other · · areas, particularly championships. The elder Earnhardt · was a seven-time Cup champion and Junior is still trying to get his fust. To date, his • two Busch Series titles in 1998 and 1999 <l!'tr his only NASCAR champronships. But Earnhardt sees progress, and a chance to get into the Chase and make a run at that coveted Cup title.

"I know I can beat him," Federer said. "I need to focus on me playing on grass, my style of play, playing aggressive. It's going to be easier on grass to do that than on clay where he can cover much more ground." The 20-year-old Spaniard beat Federer on clay for the French Open title last month. It's the first time since 1952 that the same players have reached back-to-back finals at the French Open and Wimbledon.

(AP) - Dale Jarrett says he didn't want any part of trying to recruit liis current sponsor to follow him to hi s new team. They did anyway. UPS announced on Friday that it would leave Robert Yates Racihg at the end of thi s season to remain with Jarrett when he moves to Michael Waltrip' s newly formed Nextel Cup team next year. The move apparently happened without any lobbying from Jarrett, who said he recused himself -from the negotiations out of respect to Yates. Jarrett and Yates have won 29 races together since 1995. "Dale told us from the beginning, 'I don't · want anything to do with you all talking to UPS,"' Waltrip said. Now that the deal is done, Jarrett said he is excited UPS chose to stick with him. They will sponsor Jarrett through 2008 and might continue to sponsor Waltrip's team with a new driver beyond that. "We feel very fortunate that we're the team that they ch'ose and we 'II continue this relationship for a couple more years," Jarrett said. The deal is a major boost for Waltrip, who is starting a team nearly from scratch but now finds himself in the enviable 'position of having three fully sponsored cars next year when he only expected to have two. "People thought we were maybe a little bit of a 'paper' team, not a whole there ," purchasing power. lot substantial Considered one of the Waltrip said.

ALBANY, N.Y.- Kevin Engelbert's family has been farming along the New York stretch of the Susquehanna River since the mid-1800s, but last week's flooding was the worst in memory. The flood kept ·Engelbert from milking his 140 cows for more than two days. ~osting him significant production and causing many of the animals to stop producing milk. His entire com and soybean crop, grown in Nichols just a few miles iwrth of the Pennsylvania state line, were wiped out. He can't replant now and the loss will cost at least $75,000. "It's going to impact us for a long time," said Engelbert, who struggled to pump out tile milking barn before retreating with his animals to higher ground. "We lost hundreds of acres of crops. This was a recordsetting flood for us by far." In the Utica and Binghamton areas in New York, northeast Pennsylvania and other parts of the Mid-Atlantic region hit by last week's series of deluges, farmers suffered financial losses 'that have yet to be fully tabulated . At least 20 people were killed in the flooding. In New York, the physical damage to farms alone is estimated to be about $4 million. Crop losses will be "at least" $16 million to $20 million, said Brymer Humphreys, executive director of the New York State Farm ServiceAgency. "There are thousands · of acres that hav.e been flood· ed, feed storage destroyed," he said.

See Page 81 BY BETH SERGENT BSERGENT@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM POMEROY - Well, it went practically down to the wire hut like any good movie ending the odds were overcome and good won in the end - the good in this situation being the fact that the village of Pomeroy reached its goal of $150,000 in matching funds for a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) application. Last Thursday night the village had only $104,000 AP Photo in matching CDBG funds but as of Friday evening that total jumped to $154,000 thanks to a generous $50,000 donation to the Pomeroy Squad by the Howard Nolan Estate, this according to Pomeroy Mayor John Musser. Musser had earlier said if the Nolan donation didn't go through the village's grant application may be dead in the water which illustrates just how close the race had become to raise the .funds. If Pomeroy hadn't raised at least $150,000 in matching funds it would' ve lost major points on its grant application. Theoes matching funds illustrate money spent not necessarily by the village of Pomeroy but by organizations in the village that better the good of the whole community. such as the Nolan donations to not only the Pomeroy Squad but a separate $50,000 donation to the Pomeroy Volunteer Fire Department. Besides the Nolan donations, ongoing work at the Mulberry Community Center for a playground M'as also counted towards matching funds. "Everything is looking positive," Mayor John Musser said about Pomeroy 's grant application. Musser along with other village officials and Meigs County Grants Administrator Jean Trussell have been working on Pomeroy's distress grant application since 2004. " The grant application is due on July 14 with notifi-, cation possibly around the first of September. If the village is chosen it will have two years to spend the money. . . If Pomeroy receives this highly competitive grant the $300,000 will not be spent downtown but rather out in the neighborhoods for sidewalk and street repairs, demolition of aban· doned buildings, fire equipment and parks and recreation improvements. These projects were chosen by the public via surveys and feedback at public meetings. Ohio 833 .

A garage door can account for up to 40 percent of the exterior appearance of your home. If your garage door is one oft he old onc; piece tilt-up style doors or if it is a "sagging sectional," consider replacing it with a new sectional door constructed of steel or fiberglass. Be certain to select a panel style that is compatible with the architecture of your home: Paths, porches and driveways can speak volumes about a home 's appearance. If your entry path, porch or driveway is cracked , discolor~d or otherwise unsightly, there are several "fixes" that !he "garden." Consider using them also out in the landscape. Lingonberry fruits, which ripen in fall, make an attractive, evergreen grou ndcover, the leaves pro, viding a perfect backdrop for the red berries. Lingonberry mixes well with lowbush blueberries, not you can consider. Concrete that is in reasonahly good shape can be patched. Fill cracks with a self-leveli ng concrete caulk or a vinyl concrete patch. Blotchy ·concrete can be stained using a penetrating concrete stain or acid stained for a more durable and decorative finish. Paint is another alternative finish that is especially popular for a concrete porch, but less durable for paths or driveways. A p9pular alternative for di stressed concrete finishes are <\rchitectural coatings that con sist of polymers that offer a "stamped" finish in a host of colors that can transform virtually any concrete finish into a thing of beauty.

Finally, when it comes to position right next to your teJTace or deck so you can best enjoy the !lowers - yellow trumpets with a sweet, spicy aroma - that precede the black benies. My advice is to plant berries: they ' re easy. they're tasty, and some are horne on pretty plants. ' curb appeal, not enough can be said about the importance of a well manicured yard. There is no substitute for neatly mowed and·edged turf, nicely pruned shrubs and trees, and pockets of seasonal color.
