The form traveler, which is used by work crews, was described by ODOT . as a safety issue for the contractor not the public.

He won speedy and unanimous approval from the Senate Armed Services Committee after five hours of testimony, a bipartisan show of support that suggested ho\v eager many "lawmakers are to replace Donald H. Rumsfeld at the Pentagon. The full Senate could seal Gates' confirmation as early as Wednesday. "In my view, all options are on the table, in terms of how we address this problem in Iraq," he told the committee. But he also acknowledged the complexity of the challenge. "There are no new ideas on Iraq," he said during a discusston of the bipartisan Iraq Study Group, which previewed its findings and recommendations to President Bush Tuesday and will . release them Wednesday. Gates was a member of the group until Bush announced his nomination for the Pentagon job last month. The senators voted 24-0 to support the nomination to replace Rumsfeld, who has become a symbol of the · Bush administration's steadfast course in . a war that has long since soured with the public and much of the world. "I voted yes because in both the substance of his answers and the tone his answers, he seemed open to course correction," said · Carl Levin, D-Mich., who will be the committee's chairman when Democrats take control of the Senate next month.

MILAN, Italy~ An ltaltan prosecutor on Tuesday requested the indictment of 26 Americans and five Italian secret servtce offictals m the 2003 . ktdnappmg . of an Egypltan clenc m Milan - a ~ that contmues to be an rrntant to U.S.-Italtan relations. Prosecutor Armando Spataro said the indictment request is aimed at CIA agents and·the former head of Italian military intelligence, Nicolo Pollari, for alleged involvement in the kidnap- P'';1;.~utors have identitied all but one of the Americans as CIA agents, including former station chiefs in Rome and Milan, and the 26th as a U.S. Air Force officer stationed at the time at Aviano air base near Venice. Last month. Spataro asked the center-left government of Romano Prodi to request the Americans' extradition; he ha~ not received a response. . The operation was believed to be part of an alleged CIA ""extraordinary rendition" program in which terrorism sus~ d ·rc1 pects are . trans erre to thi countries where some allegedly are tortured. Jt is the first known prosecution of alleged panicipants in such operations, which have come under growing criticism by America 's allies in Europe. . The United States and Italy have an extradition treaty, although .it was not likely that CIA agents would be turned over for trial abroad. In some instances. only the alia;es of the agents are known. The previous government of conservative Si lvio Berlusconi had refu sed to request the Americans· extradition. and contended his gov- emment and Italian secret seTvices were not informed about the operation and did not take pan. Berlusconi, one of the United States' staunchest allies in the war against terrorism and the invasion of Iraq, expressed support for Pollari. "Gen. Pollari was one of the few to fight terrorism in , the front lines, with the result that he came under the scrutiny of all Italians. Let's ask the government how it intends to protect those like Pollari who go up again§t terrorists, and the good name of our intelhgence and Italy's reputation abroad," Berlusconi said. • Pollari was replaced last month as pan of a purge that also included the 'heads of the civilian secret service agencies. Pollari, 63, had long .resisted calls for his resignation that only intensified with the abduction case. He took over SJSMI, the Italian military intelligence agency, in 200 I after holding key posts with Italy's financial police and civilian secret service agency. Besides Pollari, the request also names his former deputy Marco Mancini, and three other secret service officials. Pollan' has insisted in questioning before parliamentary committees that Italian intelligence had no role in the cleric's disappearance, while Mancini, who was arrested · this summer, is said by his lawyers to be cqoperating with prosecutors in implicating his boss. Osama Moustafa Hassan Nasr: an Egyptian cleric and terrorist suspect, also known as Abu Omar. was alleged ly abducted from a Milan weet in February 2003 and flown out of Italy from Aviano. Among the American; named .in the request are Roben Seldon Lady, a former station chief in Milan, and · Jeffrey Castelli, identified as a former CIA chief in Rome. Spataro also . is seeking indictments ori charges of aiding and abetting against two other secret service officials and the deputy director of the newspaper Libero, Renata Farina. Four others - three secret service officials and a reporter for Libero - were dfopped from the investigation. · From the outset, U.S. officials have declined comment. A lawyer for Lady, the only American who was living in Italy when arrest warrants were issued, said she was surprised by the indictment · request. "Even the documents of the prosecution show that he was not an organizer. If anything, he was someone who obeyed orders," lawyer Daria Pesce said. Lady left the country before the warrant was served. Pesce ·said he Jives in the United States, but declined to say where. Prosecutors mided Lady's home near Turin last xear, collecting a centr.tl piece of evidence - a picture of Nasr taken in January 2003 on the street where he was alleged) y abducted a month later. In another case, lawmakers from an Italian communist party demanded Tuesday that the government take action in the case of Abou Elkassim Britel , a Moroccan-born Italian citizen who;e family and lawyer say was seized during a 2002lrip to Pakistan, tortured and interrogated by .

Court to decide battle over 'for sale' sign Rusty The Daily Sentinel' • Page As 'Trigger finger' may need simple treatment or surgery Larry Dale Ashbum CINCINNATI (AP) A federal appeals court will decide if an Ohio vii!age violated a man.'s freedom of speech when it forced him to remove a "for sale" sign on a car parked in front of his , home. Chris Pagan · sai d Glendale police threatened to cite him in 2003 under an ordinance forbidding such signs on vehicle s in public areas. · Pagan, an attorney. removed the sign from his 1970 Mercury Cougar and said it hurt his ability to sell the car, which he had received as partial payment for hi s work on a case. When attempts to sell the cat through a new spaper ad and a classic car Web site failed, he resorted to the "for sale" sign. "I sold it under market . value, bec·ause it was the best deal I could get," said ' Pagan , who later filed a federal' l~wsuit to challenge the village's half-century-old sign regulation. "This is not a · trivial thing. Glendale was seeking to throw me into · the criminal justice system and subject me to jail time- and the7 can't do that when they re violating the First Amendment," said Pagan, who could have been fined up to $2.50 and sen-ti:nced to 30 days in jail. Pagan lost an earlier appeal in the case, following a district court's ruling in favor of the village and it's police chief, the defendants in the case.

Question : I have a friend who has a trigger finger. Could you tell me what this really is? What causes this problem? What can he do about it'! Answer: Most people don't notice how well their fingers work until one gets stuck in a bent position. When this happens to one of your fingers or your thumb, it is called a trigger finger. The medical term for trigger fin ger is stenosing tenosynovitis. . The name "trigger finger" is somewhat of a mi snomer, since any digit . can be involved. The term derives from ihe fact that attempting to straighten out an affected finger will at first put it in a bent position similar to that of a finger around a trigger. Then, when enough force is applied , the finger may suddenly straighten out .with snap. · Also, when you grip an object, instead of the normal smooth motion, your finger a tends to catch and then sudden! y bend to the proper position. Trigger finger is usually painful and comes on gradually. It is caused by an inflammation of a tunnellike sheath surrounding the involved tendon. Excessive ~se or a natural predispositton can cause mflammatton in this tunnel. This can be because ·the tendon lhickens or the wall of the tunnel narrows. Either way, the tendon n9 longer glides . smoothly within the sheath and is prone to "catching." This joint locking, as I described earlier, stops the finger . in a bent position before it snaps into the desired position - either straight or closed. You may experience this catching in just one finger joint or in the entire finger. '~:rigger finger can become a cyclical problem. That is, each time your digit catches it can irritate the tendon and the sheath, and they can Teen BY ANGELA CHARLTON WASHINGTON - No longer harboring disappointment from his sound election defeat last month, Sen. Mike DeWine is talking to universities about teaching and law firms about legal work as he prepares for life outside of pohtics for the tirst time in 30 years. "When I went to Miami University, I student taught at Princeton High School in Cincinnati in 1968," · DeWine said. "I want to take some of my practical experience in politics and elections. I think I have something to offer there." He isn't ready to give up his l'.lwn political aspirations, either, saying he may run for office again. "l'm .59, so I'm certainly young enough," he said. He turns 60 on Jan. 5. DeWine hasn't been a private citizen since he became Greene County prosecutor in 1976. Buthe put one leg up on a coffee table in his Senate office Tuesday. hooked his arms behind h1s chair and looked with a selfassured smile' toward the future . · "There are cycles in politics; · this was not a RepubiJcan year, and that's a kind way of saying it," he said. "But I intend to be a part of a Republican future in Ohio." DeWine's support for much of President Bush's Iraq policies and a longstanding' association with the Ohio Republican Party made him a victim of voters' antiGOP fervor. After cruising to two previous Senate wins, he lost to Democrat Sherrod Brown by 12 percentage points on Nov. 7. Rocky Saxbe, a former state J·egislator who has known DeWine for three decades and served as a Senate campaign attorney, said DeWine's ability ti:J build consensus will make him a political force again.

(2787) �OHIO The Daily Sentinel Bv JUUE CARR SMYTH AP STATEHOUSE CORRESPONDENT COLUMBUS - Long a critic of· Gov. Bob Taft, Ken Blackwell said Tuesday that he rejected advice to go negative on the Taft administration during his losing campaign for governor for the sake of the Republican Party. In an Associated Press interview, Blackwell mimed that as one of myriad factors that contributed to his loss - including government scandal, Ohio's economy · and masterful use by Gov.elect Ted Strickland of his own pro-religion, pro-gun, anti-Taft message. "You niake decisions. Here I am the titular head of the party at the top of the ticket. I've successfully gotten the. rank and file to make me their nominee. So, do I continue to run against Republicans?" reflect.ed Blackwell. Ohio's two-term secretary of state. "The strategist said, for seven years, you've been a chief critic of the administration, so you should just play that out. I chose to run a more issue-oriented campaign." Democrats &nd Republicans who ran ads attacking Taft - whose unpopularity with Ohioans grew after he pleaded no contest to ethics violations last year - were largely successful on Election Day. They included GOP Auditor-elect Mary Taylor, who linked her opponent to a Taft-backed tax increase. Blackwell said he decided . on another course, much as he opted not to run ads attacking then-President George H.W.

He said other black candidates also lost races this year - incumbent treasurer Jennette Bradley, a fellow Republican~ in the primary; Ohio Supreme Court candidate · Ben Espy; and Democratic auditor candidate Barbara Sykes - and . their losses could be traced more to the money they raised or the campaigns they ran than to their race.
