WEAmER · ROCKSPRINGS - For most incoming freshman going to their first day of high school can feel like being thrown into the deep end without first having swimming lessons but not this year, not at Meigs Hi~h School. MHS received an Ohio Department · of Education grant to host the freshman orientation program "Pathways to Success." This grant allowed for two days of freshman orientation activities that included distribution of the st udent's class schedule and locker, free lunches (including a picnic), an awards ceremon ~. · leadership games and presentations by stalf and special guests on everything from academics to how to . achieve success in life. During locker relay races, student teams paired up to find not only their locker but a gift bag inside the locker once it was opened. Inside the gift bag, what else, but a MHS t-shit1 to promote school spirit. Over 80 of MHS's 160 incoming freshman participated in the Pathways to Success program this week as did 30 staff members. MHS Principal Dennis · Eichinger said the program was important because freshman often have a difficult time acclimating to their new high school environment and this week's orientation makes the student's new environment more inviting.

A provision in GOP-written minimum wage legislation passed by the House and under consideration this week by the Senate cou ld :change the law in those :seven states- the others are ' -Montana, Alaska, Minnesota :and Oregon., It would deal a ·pay cut of $3 or more an · hour to thousands of waiters, bellhops and hairdressers in :those states, according to . Democrats and labor groups. , "Everything that has been :achieved in seven states to :support low-wage workers -who earn tips is destroyed :by this . bill, " said Sen. :Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif. ,"This bill would slash the :salaries of thousands of :workers." · : Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., called the provision a "travesty." Republicans and the :National Restaurant . Association, which opposes ;a minimum wage increase ~ and fought for the tip provision, dispute the Democratic inter.pretation. They say the legislation is only intended to have an impact when the states in question increase their min- imum wage - at which 'point the increase would come out of a worker's tips, not an employer's payrolL "No provision , results in the lowering of wages for any worker. The purpose of the provision is to -allow employers with tipped employees to count their employees' tips as wages for purposes of meeting their minimum wage obligation," Brendan Flanagan, a spokesman for the National Restaurant Association, said in a statement Tuesday after Democrats began raising concerns. A memo by the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service on Wednesday backed up the Democratic position. Under the bill language, the seven affected states "would seem to be prohibited from enforcing the minimum wage rate provisions of their laws with respect to a tipped employee' said the memo, written by Jon A. Shimabukuro, a legislative attorney at the research service, for Sen . Barbara Boxer, D-Calif. But in a letter to Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., a Labor Department official said the department would interpret the bill's language as protecting current wages for tipped employees in the seven states. Victoria Lipoic, assistant secretary of labor for employment· standards, offered in the letter to work , with lawmakers to clarify the intent of the legislation -something several Republican senators, including Norm Coleman of Minnesota, said Wednesday they intended to do. ' The minimum -wage:increase legislation already was controversial because House Republican leaders passed it as part of a bill cutting inheritance taxes on multimillion-dollar estates, a top GOP priority opposed by most Democrats. The tipped-workers' - provision looked likely to heighten Democratic opposition and could factor tnto decisionmaking by lawmakers who · haven't yet made their position known, including Democratic Sens. Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray of Washington state. The GOP package, expected to come tn a vote Friday, would increase the federal minimum wage from $5.15 to $7.25 per hour, phased in over the next three years. States with higher state minimum wages - in California it's now $6.75 an hour; in Washington $7.63 -would keep their higher levels, at least ·until the federal level exceeds it. Except for in the seven states at issue, employers of tipped employees now pay only a portion of the minimum wage - , starting at $2.13 an hour - as long as the employees,draw enough tips to make up the rest. A tipped employee is defined as one who regularly receives more than $30 per . month in tips, · Under the GOP-written legislation, according to Democrats, that same system would go into effect in the seven states where employers now pay the full wage. So instead of getting to keep tips on top of their minimum wage · in <:;a!ifornia, Nevada and the other states, tipped workers would be paid a base wage of $2. I 3 an hour and employers cou ld use their tips to make up the rest. ' ANNIE'S MAILBOX - Sheline DJvi,, will he held at the Rutland Fire Department.

Thought for Today: "It takes a great deal of history to produce a little literature." - Henry James, American author ( 1843- 1916). Millions of Americans were displaced by hurricanes Katrina and Rita , which combined to form the worst natural di saster in modern American history. More than 2 million Americans were displaced, with hundreds of thousands of homes damaged or destroyed. Oil distribution was interrupted nationwide, causing gasoline , prices to skyrocket to all-time highs. Meanwhile, American soldiers continued to fight 111 Iraq, and while Congress and the president fought about how to proceed in the war on terrorism, bribery and influence-peddling scandals hit both political parties. Simultaneously, securities regulators continued their fight against corporate shenanigans. 'I)ico's Dennis Kozlowski and Mark Swartz; Health South 's Richard Scrushy ; Worldcom's Bernard Ebbers; Imclone' s Sam Waksal; Enron's Ken Lay; and Martha Stewart were JUSt the headliners . All told, the SEC initiated 620 enforcement actions last year, resulting in more than $3 billion in , fines and dozens of prison sentences. Dozens more settlements have been reached in the continuing mutual fund scandal; many of the biggest names in the fund industry have paid fines totaling more than $4 billion to settle charges of late trading, ill~­ gal market timing, payments for illegally promoting mutual funds and improper sales practices, imd dozens of executive s have been banned from the industry. Wall Street's reaction to Katrina, the war, the scandals? The stock market cndt'd the year not with a scream, not with a ho-ho-ho, but with a ho-hum. Indeed, judging from Wall Street's reaction - or, rather, nonreaction - to national and world events, you· d have difficulty believing they even knew what was going on in the world around them. Or maybe Wall Street knows something the rest of us don '·t know. Maybe Wall Street knows that the airwaves are always filled with current events. At any given moment, someone important is dying, leaving or entering office; someone somewhere is enduring the aftermath of a natural disaster; and some regulator is revealing wrong-doing. For Wall Street, that' s not news, that's life. For Wall Streeters, the real question is simple: Are any of these events going to have a sustained, long-term impact on the economy or the ability of business to operate profitably ? For 2005, Wall Street' s answer to that question was clear: maybe, somewhat, momentarily, perhaps a littie here, not so much over there. Ho-hum. Ho-hum indeed.

NEW YORK - With so much focus lately on the scandal involving the suspicious timing of past executive stock-option grants, investors may be losing sight of maneuvers companies are using now to reduce the reported cost of options they are granting. 'By one calculation, stock option costs have plunged from a peak of $104 billion in 2000 to $30 billion last year for companies in the Standllid & Poor's 500 index, according to Credit Suisse. Corporate America likes to say that's because companies have slashed deeply the options granted to employees. But some of that reduction may really be due to how companies are tinkering with the inputs they use to value options. Minimizing option expenses that way may not be violating accounting rules, but it .might not give investors what they deserve: the most accurate portrayal of how much stock options really cost: Stock options are a popular compensation todj. since they give employee s the right to buy shares in the future at a set price.

Federal investigators are looking into whether. executives at more than 80 companies manipulated the date of such grants, which then allowed them to pocket unfair and potentially illegal profits. That scandal has shifted attention from Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB. rules foreing companies to expense option costs from earnings just as they would any other salary or benefit cost. It's a big switch from the past when companies could bury such costs in a footnote to their financial statements, making it harder for investors to gauge the effect of options on earnings. "Companies .lend not to pay much anention to costs that they don't have to account for," Credit Suisse accounting analyst David Zion said in a recent note to clients. "However. once companies have to start accounting for a cost, watch out,. as they will pull out all the stops to try and 'manage' it." And that could be what is going on when you consider that option costs are less than a third of what they · were at' the start of the · decade. Some of that can be attributed to a pullback in the number of option s granted, which has gone from 7.3 billion at the peak in 2001 to 3.3 billion in 2005 for compani es in the S&P 500, The Daily Sentinel • Page As .MEIGS (OUN'IY COURT NEWS Lavada Wheeler TRAINING?

But that isn't the only thing driving down such costs. Companies can get the same effect by changing certain assumptions used in optionprice valuation models. For instance, companies can knock down costs ·by decreasing their expectations for the estimated volatility used to set the option price. That essentially track s how much the stock price is expected to fluctuate. The lower the volatility, the lower the option cost. Yahoo Inc. reduced its volatility assumption froni 50 percent in 2004 to 35 percent last year. Zion estimates that decline shaved off $10 I million in option costs over the vesting period. Companies also are lowering the expected life of their options, which generally runs from the option 's grant date to when it is exercised. To come up with a number, companies are supposed to look at such factors as historical exerci se pattern s, employees' age and length of service, and industry averages. If they can shorten the life of an option, that results in a lower option price, and thus a reduced cost. That's seen at Broadeom Corp ., which reduced its expected life from 4.73 years in 2004 to 3.2 years in 2005 . The price of Broaddom's' options then fell about 16 percent, helping the company save an estimated $65 million, Zion said . There is al so wiggle room in determining the expected dividend yield, which is supposed to be calculated by considering future plans for dividends and looking at historical patterns. When the dividend yield rises, that lowers the option price, and thus reduces the cost. According to Zion.. the m~dial) dividend yield when pncmg opuons for companies in the S&P 500 has hovered around I percent since 1999. But many companies - 176 by his count - raised their assumptions last year, including eight that boosted yields by more than one percentage point. · By his calculations. a jump that large could decrease the price of the option anywhere from 8 percent to 15 percent, which then ,would reduce the cost. It could be that such moves actually result in more accurate option prices - something that is good news for i11vestors . Or it could be that companies are using this as a way to get the lowest option price which is exactly what shareholders don't wimt to see. The tough part is that we don't know for sure. That's why it is so crucial to closely watch such assumptions to see if the inputs keep changing, and as a result, so do the costs.

The paintings· in the background were covered in mud when Horvath's home flooded last week, and.. llls family cleaned them off for him and left them outside to dry. President Bush visited an emergency operations center in the area today, which was hit with massive flooding last week, while in town to help raise funds for Kenneth Blackwell , the republican candidate for Ohio governor. Flood victims wish Bush would meet them BY M.R. KROPKO ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER PAINESVILLE - The president was visiting, but most people hard hit by northeast Ohio floods had other things to worry about Wednesday. Muck and scorching heat created a pungent stench similar to the aroma of the pachyderm area of a zoo as residents pulled out furni ture, app liances and an " array of personal items, including clothing covered in mud and mold. Many in this blue-collar, Democratic city in ·largely Republican Lake County said they were thankfu I for Bush's declaration that the place they live is a disaster area, makin~ them eligible for federal atd. But some wished the president had toured their streets instead of meeting With politicians in Mentor, not nearly as damaged as Painesville and elsewhere in the area. He stopped by an emergency management bunker on hi s way to a fundraiser for GOP gube rnatorial candidate Ken BlackweH, who greeted Bush at the Cleveland airport with former Browns quarterback Bernie Kosar. Blackwell 's campa ign said about 650 people attended the fundraiscr. which was expected to raise about $1.5 million . 'T m sure he understands," 34-year-old Stacey Kovalchuk said about Bush · .as she tossed more debris from her home onto a growjng pile of trash and mud that was her driveway. "I'd like him to smell the smell we have down here and I'd like to ask him if he'd like to have to move back in here. ·This wa' a very nice place. lt was nice. quiet and beautiful, and now look at it." Besides the 45-minute briefing by emergency officials also attended by Gov. - .. Bob Taft, Bush also met privately with some of the firefighters and other rescuers who helped flood victims. · "Quite frankly, the president's been throJJgh II hurricanes and he knows what a disaster looks like," said U.S. ·Rep. Steven LaTourette, who invited Bush to visit Lake County and was with him in the emergency operation center. " I thought it was better that the president come here and express hi s gratitude to the people who made things go really well ," LaTourette said. The president praised the ·coo peration among local agencies during the disaster, saying "as a result. a lot of people 's lives were saved." Bush was told damage is estimated at $5 million , with more than I 00 homes and businesses destroyed in the fl oods and hundreds more damaged. The president said after the meeti ng that the Federal Emergency Management Agency would provide rental housing, loan's and other aid. · "Now is the time to help people rebuild the ir lives:: look at it first hand to justi fy why he's signing otT on it. We're all going to need that help." His neighbor, · Laura Gorney, 45, who was rescued from her second-story bedroom window in a rowboat Friday, said she and others are thankful for the federal disaster designation. " If the pres ident wants to visit me here, I'd welcome him in . I'd like to show him these homes and explain that my prayer is that . they just tear them down. I' m afraid to even be here," she said. Stephen Mapes, 35, was loading some items he salvaged fro m hi s mother 's flood-damaged home into his pickup truck, decorated Bush-C heney with · a bumper sticker. The Army veteran said he fee ls the president deserves the support of the community. "There are probably some people around ·here who think George should come out here and help them clean up and move stuff for them, but I think most of us understand he's ·got more important things to do," Mapes said. Bu sh said. On Tuesday, Bush declared Lake, Geauga and Ashtabula counties federal di saster areas. On Friday, a man drowned and hundreds were forced from their homes by I 0 inche s of rain. The two-story Millstone condominiums where Kovalchuk lives were flooded up to the second level when the nearby Grand River overtlowed its banks in the worst flooding in this city in rece nt memory. Neighbors were outside Wednesday creating their own sma ll 111Quntains of mud-stained possessions destined for· the landtill. "This has been just devastating. We lost everything, and I'm a single mom with two kids,". Kovalchuk said as she went about her work in boots· and sleeveless shirt . Kevin Ford, 37, who was flooded out of the home he shares with his mother, was hoping Wednesday morning that Bush would visit the tlooded areas and not just meet with officials to learn about the damage. "I hope he comes down and looks at it," Ford said. , "Thi s was a lake!

With the rest of the Bengals scrimmaging on another tield Wednesday, defensive tackle S a m Adams' mas si ve frame was plodding in a conga Notebook I i n e · alongside a handful of injured players barely half his size. Cincinnati's big - as in, 350 pounds plus - free agent acquisitton is on the list of players who are physIcally unable to perform. But he scoffed at that characterization. ''I' II be here when the real bullets fly. when it comes time to play," said Adams, wearing a T-shirt reading "Big Daddy." Fans may wonder when their new star run-stuffer will be suiting up against the first-team offense. His answer: it doesn't matter, as long as he 's prepared for the season opener against the Kansas Cit~ Chiefs, one of the league s best running team s, and their AII,Pro guard. "You want to see me get out there and knock heads?" Adams said. "You want me to do it senselessly? I could just go run my head into that wall just to do it. Or, if we ' re getting ready to play ... what I'm saying is I'll be ready. Come Kansas City, . I' II be ready for Will Shields." Adams, a three-time Pro Bowler, signed with the Bengals in April, ending an often contentious tenure with the Buffalo Bills and their former coach, Mike Muliirkey. who benched him for most of the second half of the season. But Adams insisted that chapter is over and said he's e~cited to be reunited with coach Marvin Lewis, who was his defensive coordinator for the 2000 Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens. He also went to a Super Bowl two years later with the Oakland Raiders under his current coordinator, Cht1ck Bresnahan. Although Adams was expected to be a main piece of what could be a muchimproved Bengal run defense, the focus now is all about conditioning. He's li sted at 350 pounds but is beli eved to be above that . He won 't reveal the true number. I(/; .. . ...

But Cleveland's No. 16, who hasn't taken a snap as a pro since leaving Kent State, is acting more like an NFL wide receiver every day. "He's looking good," Browns quarterback Charlie Frye said Wednesday. "He's catching the ball a lot better. He made a nice catch in our two-minute drill on the first play for about 60 yards. I pon't get a chance to watch special teams, but as a receiYer. he's looking good." One year after making Cleveland's roster as a speCial-teamer and kick returner, Cribbs has a chance to work his way up the Browns' depth chart at wide recei\er. On Wednesday, coach Romeo Crennel was asked if Cribbs has a future in the NFL catching the ball. "It may be a little too early to tell right now. but if you went on effort. then you'd say he's going to make it," Crennel said. Cribbs can run. Cribbs can throw. Cribbs can catch. Cribbs can tackle.

Clayton led off the eighth with a homer off former Red Elmer Dessens. It was his first home run since June 17, 2005, for Arizona at Cleveland Notes: The gametime 91 temperature was degrees .... Griffey's home run left him with 1.595 career RBis, tied with Hall of Farner Mike Schmidt for 23rd on the career RBI list. CLASSIFIED Randy Thomas is not getting a whole lot of relief "''m 310 (pounds), I eat bad - this is not like sweat, It's like grease coming off my head," Thomas said. "It feels like the sun is on my shoulders 1md is rolling on m~ back, back and forth, I don t even feel the breeze, even thou11:h the leaves are blowing ,f' Relief wasn't exrected before Thursday or Fnday in the East. Cooler weather in the South wasn't as predictable. Surpnsingly, Flonda was a safe haven from the heat, with temperatures forecast to remain in the 80s. But even those from warm, even tropical, cliiTll'tes aren't used to this. "I don't care where you are from, nobody likes sweating through their shirt," satd Boston Red Sox third baseman Mike Lowell, who was born in Puerto Rico and spent seven seasons m Miami with the Flonda Marlins. Red Sox manager Terry Francona made batting practice optional Tuesday and Wednesday before games against Cleveland in steamy Fenway Park. Fnmcona even ~ad coaches and batboys shagging balls for the players who chose to take BP swings. The Indians also called off extra hitting sessions and stepped up reminders to encourage players to continue drinking. "The key is hydration and more hydratiOn," Red Sox trainer J1m Rowe said. "These guys are drinking something 24-7." The dangers became all the more evident 111 200 I when Minnesota lineman Korey Stringer died of heatstroke following a sweltenng practice. A I5-year-old high school football player died Tuesday after collapsing one day earher following an offseason workout in an Atlanta suburb. He became at least the fifth football player nationwide to die this summer from heatrelated problems.

Any delenders who would get this deal right deserve a pat on the back, not to be stabbed there . How can tour spades be defeated, assuming West leads the club tO? Nor1h and South were using two-over· one game-force, so North's two-heart response was natural and game-forcing. When he raised to four spades, he announced lack of slam interest. Alternatively, four clubs or four diamonds would have been a control-bid (cue-bid), promiSing a (lirst·roundl conlrol. in !hat suit and lnterasl In a spade slam. (II North had wanted lo lind a minor-su~ Iii, . he would have rebid three clubs or three diamonds, not three hearts.) To defeat four spades, East must win the first trick wl1h his club ace Snd 'shift to a heart. West wins with his ace and e~eits w1th a trump. Unable to reach the dummy or ruff a diamond over there, ·declarer will probably run live rounds of spades, but assuming West discards at most one diamond and ~sl stays glued to all of his diamonds, the defenders win two diamond tricks: West's ace and East's jad< or nine. In a tournament, several declarers got heme. One East shifled to a trump at trick two. But now declarer drew trumps and led his heart. West won with his ace and exited with a low diamond, but Soulh caplured East's jack wilh his queen and CO!'ltinued with the diamond king. West won and led his last diamond, but South had lhe 10·8 over Easfs 9·6. • Z24 $3,095; 98 Windstar $3,295;98Win , dstar$2,295; 97 Venture van $2,095; 03 04 Honda Rancher 4x4. like Eclipse $12,500; 98 Sedan new, garage kept, elect. shift Deville $5,388. or auto, GPS system $5,300.
