Thousands denounce upcoming papal
visit to Turkey as tensions mount
BY BRIAN MURPHY
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

ISTANBUL, Turkey Tens of thousands of protesters denounced Pope Benedict
XVI as an enemy oflslam at a
rally Sunday that underlined
deep divisions straining
Turkey ahead of the pontiff's
visit this week.
Officials hoping to promote
closer ties with the west urged
calm, but Islamic groups wary
of Western ways are united in
anger over a speech Benedict
gave two months ago in
which he quoted a medieval ,
text that linked Islam to violence.
Chants of"No to the pope!"
rose among nearly 25 ,000
demonstrators at every mention of his rema'rlcs on violence and the Prophet
Muhammad. Many protesters
wore headbands with antipope slogans and waved placards that included a depiction
of Benedict as the grim reaper.
The protest, organized by
an lslamist political party, was
the large~t mass gathering so
far against Benedid 's fourday visit scheduled to begin
Tuesday - his first papal
journey to a mostly Muslim
nation . The outcry also was
designed to rattle Turkey's
establishment.
Turkish officials hope to
use the visit to promote their
ambition~ of bc:coming the
ftrst Mu,(im nation in the

•

European Union and showcase Turkey's secular political
·system. But Islamic groups,
which have been gaining
strength, see Benedict as a
symbol of Western intolerance and injustices against
Muslims.
"The pope is not wanted
here," said Kubra Yigitoglu, a
20-year-old protester wearing
a head scarf, ankle-length coat
and cowboy boots .
Neruby, a large banner was
raised amid a sea of red flags
of the Saadet, or Felicity,
party. It C&lt;tUed the Vatican "a
source of terror."
Seeurity forces are on full
alert for the pope's visit.
Nearly 4,000 police , including units in full riot guard,
watched over the protest.
Surveillance
helicopters
buzzed overhead and protesters were frisked before entering the square in a conservative stronghold of Istanbul.
The pope's visit has tWo
distinct - and difficult objectives: calming Muslim
ire and advancing efforts to
heal a nearly 1.000-year
divide in Christianity between
the Vatican and Orthodox
churches.
Benedict plans to meet first
with political and Muslim
religious leaders in the capital,
Ankara, including Turkey's
president and the Islamic cleric' who oversees the country's
reli!lious affairs. Prime
Mirmter Recep Tayyip

Erdogan is scheduled to
attend a NATO meeting in
Latvia during the papal visit,
but could briefly greet the
pontiff at the airport.
The pope then heads to
Istanbul - the ancient
Byzantine
capital
of
Constantinople - to be host- ·
ed by the spiritual leader of

the
Christians,
Ecumenical
Patriarch Bartholomew I.
The pope strongly backs
efforts for closer bonds
between the two ancient
branches of Christianity,
which formally split in the
II th century over disputes
including papal primacy, But
some Orthodox leaders ,
including Russia's powerful
Patriarch Alexy II, are wary of
deepeninjl ties too fast.
· While m Istanbul , Benedict
also plans to visit the famous
17th century Blue Mosque.
The Vatican spokesman, the
Rev. Federico Lombardi,
called it a "sign of respect"
toward Muslims.
The mosque is one of the
city's major tourist sites and
its slentler .minarets are a
'prominent landmark in
Istanbul's ancient center.

One more word about
Thanksgiving.
It is above all my favorite
holiday, maybe because it
retains its essence. Not so
other special days on the
calendar. The wild orgy of
consumption beginning the
day after Thanksgiving has
long rendered the Christmas
season the most pagan of
religious holidays. Most of
the other holidays we keep
according to the federal
government's schedule Memorial Day, the Fourth
of July, Veteran 's Day are marked as· three-day
weekends generically suited
to barbecuing, season permitting. This is probably
natural, as the momentous
events such davs commemorate recede inio practically
ancient history.
But Thanksgiving is different. · Harkening back
about four centuries to our
founding narrative of
Pilgrims and Indians, of
thanks-be for plenty, the
holiday still holds much of
its traditional allure and
even divine inspiration. To
this day, we, the figurative
(if not literal) descendants
of those Pilgrims and
Indians who sat down to sup
together sometime in the
fall of 1621, continue to
give thanks for American
plenty.
And
on
Thanks~iving Day, when
plenty IS manifested in a
simple and emphatically
homey feast; our level of
satisfaction and our sense of

notion of "survival'' into
what we do until Sony
comes out with PlayStation
4.

· gratitude remain in balance.
By Christmas, of course,
nothing is in balance.
"Plenty" tends to have
become "glut," and heartfelt
gratitude has curdled into a
conflicted sense of embarrassment. This is all the
more reason to savor
Thanksgiving, a day when
plenty is still "enough" and
not 'ttoo much." '
In olden days, such plenty
meant survival - literally.
With enough food , the fate
pf the Pilgrim colony,
founded to perpetuate austere Puritan ideals, was
nearly assured. In our day,
plenty alone provides no
such guarantee. Although
our material wealth as a
society has never been
greater, our survival as that
Puritan-originated society
seems more in jeopardy
than ever before. Maybe
that's because plenty has
become an end in itself.
And, truth be told, plenty in
, America today is hardly just
a 20-lb. turkey on the table.
It's a $500-$600 Sony

could eat too much and buy
too much and play too many
really repulsive games such
as Grand Theft Autos, I- IV,

what may be an inversion of
American exceptionalism,
our singular sense of our- .

Others cited forecasts that
the housing recession could

AKRON (AP) - The

admission of felons to the

Harry Collier is in the
Summit County jail awaiting trial on several criminal

Collier has been banned

The largest camels in the

Ames.wins playoff hole to take Skins Game title over Couples
BY KEN PETERS
ASSOCIATED PRESS

LA QUINTA, Calif.
Stephen Ames took the big
bucks in his first Skins
Game.
Ames rolled in a 3-foot
birdie putt on the third playoff hole Sunday for
$270,000 that gave him the
championship with a total of
$590,000.
"I forgot about the golf
swing and just started playing golf," Ames said. "I
made some nice putts and
hit some good shots where I
made some skins early on."
Five-time champion Fred
Couples finished second
with $385,000. John Daly
won one skin worth $25,000
and ruined his chance at the·
$270,000 still up for grabs
when he drove into a fairway bunker on the third
playoff hole.
· Fred Funk, who wore a
pink skirt on one hole la~t
year then went on to laugh
all the way to the bank with
$925,000 and the title, was
shut out in his second trip to
the Skins.
· Couples and Funk were
eliminated on the second
playoff hole, when Ames
and Daly each had birdies.

3 feet of the pin. Daly finally tapped in for a bogey
before Ames sank his putt.
All four players had tied
with birdies on the first
playoff hole.
Couples, who topped the
earnings the first day with
$175,000, added $140,000 .
when he won the 15th hole
with a 5-foot birdie putt,"
and $70,000 more with an
8-foot eagle putt on No. 16.

Ames earned a cool quarter
of a million dollars after
. hitting hi s wedge within a

on the next hole when he
rammed in an IS-footer, the
ball striking the back of the
cup, "bouncing up ~ then
dropping in.
The prize money on the
first six holes was "$25,000
each; Nos. 7-12 $50,000
apiece; 13 through 17
worth $70,000 each. The
final hole was a "Super

players won a hole outright.

Shortfall in Pomeroy genetal .fund may affect Christmas bonuses

SPORTS

Bv Bmt SERGENT

. • Southern girls fall in
season opener.
SeePageB1

BSERGENT®MYDAILYSENnNEL.COM

POMEROY - The good
news is 20 funds belonging
to the village of Pomeroy are
either breaking even or in
the black but the all import.ant general fund which provides salaries and Christmas
bonuses for employees may
be facmg a $6,000 shortfall
at year's end.
Councilman
Shawn
Amott, who is also on the
village's finance committee,.
said the review of funds
showed the village has sev-

era! funds with "liquidity"
including the cemetery
funds which recently had a
balance of $S4,000. Another
bit of good news was a projection of $15,000 which
couit fines are estimated to
·bring in by the end of the
year.
Still, the general fund is
struggling.
"Things are really tight
right now (in the general
fund) and between now and
year end we may need to
make . · decisions
about
staffing,"
A,mott
said,
adding he didn't want -to see

that happen.
Cuts in village departments may be a possibility
as will doing away with a
"lap over shift" in the police
department, a cutback ori
hours in the police department and a freeze on overtime.
Arnott
reported
the
finance committee determined reasons for this shortfall in the general fund were
rising health insurance benefits and the workers compensation premium. In fact
this year's premi urn was
referred to as a "drain on vii-

!age funds."
Clerk-Treasurer Kathy
Hysell said as of right now
there is not enough money in
the general fund to lay
salaries through the en of
the year and a resolution
adjusting approP.riations to
make payrol will likely be
needed in the month of
December. Council passed a
similar appropriation adjustment last night to get the village through November.
Facing that $6,000 shortfall in the general fund,
council didn't vote on
.employee Christmas bonus-

es last night which must be
done by ordinance which
requires three readings and a
vote. However, the ordinance can be expedited and
passed by emergency measure as well.

Councilwoman
Mary
McAngus asked how many
council members attended
the recent finance committ-ee
meeting which were four
members . McAngus then
protested that this was in
violation of the Sunshine
Law because a majority of

as Daly's caddy on the II th
