HURRICANES LEAVE A BITIER TASTE AS SUGAR PRICES RISE
Bv RUKMINI CALLIMACHI
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

ERATH, La. - · When the
wave of black water descended on this town, the lields of
sugarcane were ripe, tall,
green shoots bursting with
sugar.
'This entire field was a
lake,"
recalled
Clay
DuPlantis, standing in one of
the decimated lields his family has farmed for seven.generations.
Thousands of acres of cane
ready to be harvested were
soaked in saltwater as
Hurricanes Katrina and Rita
pounded the·Gulf of Mexico
35 miles away. When the sea
water receded, much of the
cane was damaged and the
tlelds were filled with torn-off
porches, picnic tables, splintered furniture and stink ing
moss.
The loss of the Louisiana
sugarcane and disruptions at
two sugar refineries in New
Orleans sent a shock through
the sugar industry, which was
already dealing with shonages
because of hurricane-damaged
crops in Florida last year.
"Sure, I'm gonna hurt," said
DuPlantis, whose 3,000 acres
of cane were flooded. "But
that's small potatoes compared to the industry · as a
whole."
Since the end of August, the
price of sugar has gone from
28 cents a pound to over 40
cents, according to the U.S.
Department of Agriculture,
citing industry publications.
That's compounded .the pricing difficulties the su,gar
industry faces - the government keeps prices for sugar
considerably higher in the
U.S. than on the world market
by limiting imports and
restrictin·g how much sugar
can be sold domestically.
The goal is to prot~ct farmers and processors and ensure
a steady supp ly of sugar.
However, the price difference
means that food manufacturers - and consumers - pay
more than if there were no
restrictions on imports .. The
world price for refined sugar
averaged 14.1 ~ cents a pound,
according to the USDA.
The latest increase is being
felt mostly by small confectioners, bakers and ice cream
makers who don't buy their
sugar on the futures market

months ahead of time.
"A day without sugar at the
candy fa&lt;:tory is like a day
without air for a human
being,'' said Eric Atkinson,
whose grandfather founded
Atkinson Candy Co. in
Lufkin. Texas, 'in 1932. Three
times in October, his: sugar
distributor failed to deliver its
promised supply.
Atkins-on. whose factory
uses up to 40,000 pounds of
sugar per day, has tried without luck to bring in two trucks
of cheaper Mexican sugar into
Texas. ''It's got bogged down
in bureaucracy," he said.
If the shortages and high
prices persist. he may have to
move his operations offshore,
he said. Either that, or raise
prices for his peanut · buti1~r
bars, mint twists and a

Great American Smokeout
is jump start to better health
Tuesday, November 15,

Clubs and
organizations

DEAR ABBY: Thursday,
Nov. 17, will mark the
·American Cancer Society's
29th Annual Great American
Smokeout. It's a day when
millions of smokers will put
down their cigarettes - "just
for one day"- with the conviction that if they can last 24
hours without a . cigarette.
then they can do it for 48
Hours, 72 hours, and stop
smpking for good.
For nearly three decades ,
the American Cancer S()j:iety
has designated the' third
Thursday of November as a
day for smokers nationwide
to unite and kick the deadly
habit of smoki ng. On that
day, we urge people who
smoke to, instead of lighting
up, put down that cigarette
and call us for suppon in
"staying quit" for good.
If you're a smoker, t-he
smartest thing you can do to
improve your health and
longevity is to quit smoking.
The American Cancer Society
Quitline can help you double
your chances of success .
We also advocate for policies that help smokers quit,
such as insurance coverage
for tobacco cessation programs and ·smoke-free workplace laws. Research shows
that smoke-free workplace
laws not only encourage
smokers to quit, but also protect non-smokers from exposure to secondhand smoke a known health hazard.

�OPINION

The Daily Sentinel

Tuesday, November 15,

2005

The United States reaped
huge political benefits
from its generous response
to · the 2004 Indian Ocean
tsunami. But it's in danger
of falling short now in
strategically vital Pakistan.
Five weeks after an
earthquake killed an estimated 87,000 people and
left · 2 million homeless
with
savage
weather
descending, the U.S. government has committed
$156 million to relief in
Pakistan, compared to $1
billion after the tsunami.
Private U.S. donations
for Pakistan so far total
$47.7 million, accor~ing to
the Center on Philanthropy
at Indiana University. That
compares to $600 million a
month after the tsunami
and $1.6 billion . total. \
A week after the tsunami, President Bush enlisted
hi s father. . and former
President Bill Clinton to
lead private relief fundraising. It took 20 days for
.him to ·appoint five corporate CEOs to lead a similar
effort after the earthquake.
Bush recently met with
the CEOs - including the
heads of GE, Pfizer,
Citigroup and Xero~ - in
the Oval Office and dispatched them, along with
Undersecretary of State
Karen Hughes, to visit
Pakistan.
In an interview, Hughes
disputed the notion that the
U.S. response has been
slow. "I started working on
this on Day One, " ·she
said. "We committed $50
million the first weekend .
which was a really substantial effort and more
than we originally did in
the tsunami."
Still. she acknowledged
that word about relief
efforts, and especially the
CEOs' private-sector campaign, has gotten lost amid
coverage of ihe CIA-leak
scandal and other news.

Proud
Middlepott resident difen4s.hometown ·
Dear Editor:

I have never written a letter to the editor before, but I feel
compelled to answer Mr. Fields' opinion published Nov. 10.
I have lived in Middleport for 79 years and I am proud to
say that it is my hometown. Middleport is proud to have a four
star general who was an All American at West Point and rose
to be the first space commander in the U.S.A. - Jim
Hartinger.
Middleport also takes pride in having two recipients of the
Congressional Medal of Honor, the nation's highest honor, Ed
Bennett of W.W.ll , and Jimmy' Stewart of the Korean War.
Also among the many good citizens of Middleport, is Dave
Djles, a Hall of Fame sports announcer.
·
Middleport can and will be . revitalized. Three new businesses have opened in the last few months - Mill St.
Antiques owned by Sandy Brown, Marc Fultz's antique shop
and upscale clothing store on North Second St, with another
business in the works, a barber shop.
Families from all over the county come to enjoy the park
on Hartinger Parkway. No other small town around has a great
park with batting cages, swimming pool, tennis courts, playground, and three ballfields.
Pomeroy Mayor John Musser, along with the business
women, have done a great job of beautifying downtown
Pomeroy. Middleport has a committee of women equal to the
task.
Middleport, the largest village in Meigs County, is still a
great place to work and live.

for
Cleveland's first-year ~oa,h:
Just give him the ball.
"It's time for me to make

"That 's what it's time for."
For weeks, Edwards has
stayed silent while he has ·
split
playing time in

offense
with
Dertnis
Northcutt. But Edwards,
who caught two passes for
64 yards in the Browns' 34. 21 loss on Sunday night at
Pittsburgh, feels the team
should be utili zi ng his playmaking skills more.
"That's what I do. That's
what I was drafted for," said
Edwards, proudly kicking

and it gets to a point where
you have to give it to the guy

:rhe Browns have brou ght
Edwards along slowly in his
first season. They have been
reluctant to anoint their firstround draft choice - No. 3
overall - as anything more
than what he is: a highly
touted rookie who still ha s a

Coach says OSU remembered for what it does against Michigan
Bv RUSTY MILLER
ASSOCIATED PRESS

COLUMBUS- So huge is No.9 '
Ohio State's game Saturday at 17thranked Michigan that Buckeyes
coach Jim Tressel says he doesn't
have to do much to inspire his players.
"This is one of those games that I
don't know that you have to worry
about getting anyone's attention."
Tressel said Monday.
But Tressel the Micromanager
couldn't help ~ himself. He still
papered the walls of the locker room
with motivational signs. just in case
his players forgot who they're play:
in g.
"We walked in yesterday and there
are signs up all over in the locker
room about the rivalry game and
what it means and the tradition about'
it," defensive end Mike Kudla said.
"It puts it front and center. You can't
look past th.is one."
·
Born and raised in Ohio in a family whose patriarch, Lee Tressel, was
a weii-known football coach at
Baldwin-Wallace, Tressel ' was ,
steeped in the traditions of the Ohio
State-Michigan game at an early
age. He has spent most of his adult
life in Ohio, inc! uding a stint as an
Ohio State assistant under, Earle
Bruce, before taking over as head
coach of the Buckeyes five years
ago.
Many players from the two
schools go on to NFL careers, but
Tressel has seen what the red-letter
events are of their collegiate days. ·
"When guys come back for
reunions, they talk about the guy
that made the big play in the Ohio
State-Michigan game," Tressel said.
"That's just the legacy that's left and Ohio State football coach Jim Tressel answers questions about his team's
I'm sure the same thing goes up ing a news conference at the Woody Hayes Practice Facility on the school's
there when people come back and
talk about the great pride they have 2 overall and 1-1 in the Big Ten with including handing the Nittany Lions
a 17-10 loss at Penn State on Oct. 8. their only loss, 27-25, on Oct. 15. ·

Michigan football coach Lloyd Carr yells from the sidelines during a game against Penn State in Ann Arbor, Mich., Saturday.
Oct. 15.
mid-October in almos t 40
years, Chad Henne threw a
touchdown pass to Mario
Mannin~ham with no time
left to hft Michigan to a 2725 victory over the Nittany
Lions.
"If you look back -on it, I'd
have to say that definitely
changed our season," left
tackle Adam Stenavich said.
"If we didn't make that play
and win that game, we
wouldn't be in the position

we're in now."
The Wolverines went on to
win at Iowa in overtime and
at Northwestern, then had a
much-needed off week before
routing Indiana on Saturday.
Receiver Carl Tabb said the

- - - - -----------• ----

..

team has been confident
throughout the season, . even
when things looked bleak,
and that allowed it to put
together a winning streak,
At 3-3, Tabb said the
Wolv~:;rines had a decision to
make. "It just made us look in the
mirror and determine what
kind of team we wanted to be
because we have a choice,"
he recalled. "We can either go
in the tank and throw the year
away, or we can do what you
have seen us do, which is
come back fighting and
swinging and fighting our
way out of the corner that we
dug ourselves and put oursetves into."

be a better player because of
it.
However, Edwards thinks
the time for the Browns to
cut him loose has arrived.
"Once a guy ,passes the
test and you ·give him a
·chance in the fourth quarter
and he's still making plays
then it comes a point in time
where you say, 'OK. he's
done what we've asked him
to do," ' he said.
Does he think the Browns
are 'ready to make him a goto guy? .
,
.
.
"I hope so," he said. "I've
been away from it forever.
The bottom line is that I'm ·
ready to make plays. I'm
tired of being around knowing that I can make flays
and not being able to. can
make plays. That's what I'm
here for, so sooner or later
they've got to give me ·a
chance to do it."
The Browns· (3·6) could
have used some big plays by

I

McCutcheon had an MRI
on Monday, and the team
was awaiting further word
on his status.
Not having the six-year
veteran would be another
major blow for the Browns,
who have already lost cornerback Gary Baxter to a
season-ending injury. Also;
starting offensive guard Joe
Andruzzi (knee and calf)
and kick returner Joshua
Cribbs (neck stinger) were
hurt.
Still, the Browns had their
chances and missed a golden
opportunity in the first quarter when quarterback Trent
Dilfer overthrew a wideopen Edwards on a post pattern. Cleveland led 7-0 at the
time, and with only 70 yards
of sod between Edwards and
the end zone, the Browns
could have gone up by 14.
"He just missed me,"
Edwards said. "! would have
scored. But you never know.
I don't think there was anything but green (grass). It
could have changed the
game . But we missed it and
we move forward." ·

Edwards or anyone during
Sunday's nationally televised loss to their bitter
rivals. The Steelers exposed
the Browns for what they
are: a rebuilding. inexperienced team with inferior talent and some tough days ·
sti II ahead.
"We still have a long way
to go," said Crennel, who
felt his team was manhandled. "We're going to be
competitive with this team
, at some point. When that is,
I don't know."
Running back Reuben
Droughns, one of the few
Browns to shine, agreed
with Crennel's blunt assessment:
,
"That," Droughns said,
"was an old-fashioned butt
whipping."
,
The Browns came away
with more than battered and
bruised behinds. Cornerback .
Dayton McCutcheon sustained an abdominal injury
when Steelers wide receiver
Hines Ward inadvertently
slammed his knee into
McCutcheon's mid-section
while the two battled for a
pass in the end zone.

be ·negated with loss to Ohio State
ANN ARBOR, Mich.
Michigan salvaged its season
after starting 3-3 by winning
four straight games.
The
17th-ranked
Wolverines won't consider
the year a success, however,
unless they make it five in a
row with a victory over No. 9
Ohio State.
"For both teams, I think
this season will be a major
disappointment with a loss,"
Michigan coach Lloyd Carr
said Monday. "There is a lot
at stake."
As usual, a lot will be on
the line Saturday at Michigan
Stadium in the 102nd meet·
. ing in one of college football's greatest rivalries.
The
slightly
favored
Buckeyes (8-2, 6-1 Big Ten)
can chnch at least a share of
the conference championship
with a victory, and they
would claim the title outright
.if Penn State also gets upset
later in the day at Michigan
State.
·
The two-time defending
Big
Ten
champion·
Wolverines (7-3, 5-2) need a
victory and a Penn State loss
to earn' a piece of the title.
Michigan leads the series
with Ohio State 57-38-6, but
over the last 50 years, both
teams have won 24 times and
tied twice. Carr is 6-4 against
the Buckeyes - 1-3 since
Jim Tressel replaced John
Cooper in 200 I.
Despite losing a school record four All-Americans,
much was expected of ,the
Wolverines this season.
Michigan began the season
ranked No. 4 and rose to No.
3 after opening with a win
over Northern Illinois.
Losses to Notre Dame and
Wisconsin
dropped
the
Wolverines out of The
Associated Press poll Sept.
25 for the first ttme since
1998, ending a streak of 114
straight weeks in the rankings, which was the longest
run in the nation.
"People didn't give us
much hope," tight end Tim
Massaquoi said. "They really
cast our season away."
A setback to Minnesota on
Oct.
8
dropped
the
Wolverines to 3-3, their worst
start since 1990.
"We knew that we weren't
playing up to Michigan's
level," linebacker David
Harris said. "We knew that
wasn't acceptable."
Flirting

the
Wolverines' worst re'cord in

upcoming game against Michigan durcampus Monday.

Ohio State and Penn State.
Tress'e! said there's no chance the
Buckeyes - who have won their
last five games by an average score
of 42-15 - are thinking about
championship rings, bowl bids and
warm climates instead of their chief
rivals.
"Really,' those first I0 (games)
don ' t mean much and they know
that," Tressel said. " It's what you do
up there on Saturday that makes the
difference." ·
Yet Ohio State offensive. guard
Rob Sims said recent ly that the
Buckeyes actually overlooked·
Michigan the last time the game was
played in Ann Arbor, Mich.
" I know in 2003 we started thinking. man , if we just win out we can
get back . into the national championship and we kind of overlooked
the biggest game of the year, which
was the Michigan game," Sims said.
The Buckeyes, who lost that game
35-21, had won the national title a
year earlier.
Asked how it was possible to
overlook Michigan, he said,
"M ichigan was having a down year
and we were like we were .going in
to take care of business and get into
another national championship."
On Monday, Ohio State's players
laughed at the thought that they
could ever look past Michigan.
"This is it. What else do you have
left?" Kudla asked. "It's a month
before your next game . in the bowl
and ... our season rides on this. We
need to get a· share of that Big Ten
title or that's it. It kind of means
everything for us,"
Tressel said most Ohio State players are remembered for what they do
against Michigan.
"Coach Bruce reminds us often ...
that your legacy is the Ohio StateMichigan game," he said. "That's
our culture. That's why it's exciting ·
to play in it, because it's important."

The second independenlly published
American magazine is Bridge Today. It
has a varied conlent, but it is written lor
the serious tournament player. The
unusual aspect is that you get It by e-mail
and print it out yourselt
This deal from Peter Kichline contains a
good lesson. How would you try to make
six spades? West leads a trump.
After North's game-forcing two-over-one
response (which is very popular In the
tournament world), South's jump rebid
announced solid suit and asked for control-bids (cue-bids) . So, the n&amp;xt three
bids showBd aces, and six clubs indicated that king (or perhaps a singleton).
Playing to establish dummy's heart
queen isn 't right and doesn't work·.
Alternatively, you could take the diamond
finesse at trick two: If it wins, you are up
to i 1 tricks and could play lor a club ruff
in the dummy as trick 12. HoW9\Ier, it the
diamond finesSe loses, you are in big
trouble.
The best line is to win the spade lead,
play a club to dummy's king, return to the
club ace, and trump a club on the board.
Next, ruff a heart in hand and draw
trumps. Then comes the key play that is
easy to overlook: Exit with your last club.
If West produces the missing club queen,
you will need the diamond finesse to
work. But here East is endplayed, forced.
to return a ·red suit into dummy's acequeen, giving you three red-suit tricks
along with si)( spades, two clubs and the
club ruff.

SYRACUSE - Ralph 'and
Jan Lavender have lived in
Syracuse for 40 years and
until Monday morning they
were unaware that resting
beneath their property was a
seam of coal slag that had
been smdldering ·on Water
Street above the Ohio River.
Ralph and a neighbor had
recently attempted to ·smoke
out a ground hog which
may' ve provided a vent of air
to the underground slag
which caused it to burn hotter. Officials from the
Syracuse Volunteer Fire
Department said it could
have been smoldering for two
weeks underground.
"You could feel the heat on
your shoes," Ralph said about
.the ground above the . slag
seam.
Officials from Ohio's
Abandoned
Mine
Land
'Program (AML) were called to
the scene as was Robert Byer
from the Meigs Emergency
Management Agency.
Please see Sy11cuse, AS .

Both Sergent/ photo
For days smoke has been rising from what is believed to be a coal s lag dump on the property
of Ralph and Jan Lavender on Water Stmet in Syracuse. Ralph stands back from the caution
tape that now surrounds his front yard. :Tuesday the dump was still smoldering, creating dangerous, noxious fumes.
