Newman was the Raybestos Rookie of the Year that season, edging out another young superstar, Jimmie Johnson. Almost immediately, he became the sport's most reliable qualifier.

I became aware of this problem earlier. when I received a call from a constituent in my district who had exhausted all other options and resources when it caine to the treatment of their mentally ill child. and faced the ·decision of tmnsferring custody to the· local public children services agency (PCSA) so that child could continue to receive care. Residential care for a mentally ill child is expensive, and many health insurance plans will only cover the treatment for so many day s out of , each month . Parents are otlen forced to deplete savings accounts and max out credit cards in order to ensure their child continues to receive the care they so _desperately need. If the parent remits custody to the PCSA, the chi ld then is labeled as "independent" and qualifies for state and federal funding for the coverage of the residential treatment. But it shouldn't have to come to this. That's why I introduced Senate Bill 192. On the face of it. it would not seem that complicated. I have not met a person ye t that has not agreed that this practice needs to be eliminated. But as the biil has received hearings and discussions, several complications have come to light that I did not anticipate. It is these complications that have prevented the legislation from moving forward thus far. The first concern is that the legislation should not change the pol icy of, or do any harm to the counties that do not currently use the practice of relinquishing custody for care . Many county PCSA's work with other county agencies to lind alternate ways to help families find the care they need. However, there are still 22 counties that have the notion that they can only get funding from the federal government if they have custody of the child. The premise of the bill! introduced, S.B. 192 was to allow .the parents to enter into a Volunteer Placement Agreement (VPA) which . at the time · it was believed that this would continue to qualify the child for federal funding. This would allow the PCSA to take the case before the Family and Children First Council in the county in order to blend fund- ed for a long time is about to malerialize.

I checked my credit report and found that tour other accounts had been opened in my name without my permission. I am furious. My first impulse was to seek legal action. but I held back. I come from a Chinese/Filipino family. It is considered a matter of family honor not to disgrace or embarrass one another. I f!.m torn between reporting it and justtal<.ing care of it. But if I take care of it, I am enabling my parent to think that I can just clean up the problem and be OK with it. I sent a Jetier asking that the balances be paid off. It was ignored. My other relatives aren't willing to get involved. I love my parent very much, but this isn't right. It has already ruined my chances of having a car or home of my own. What should I do?- DISCREDITED IN ROCKVILLE, MD. DEAR DISCREDITED: Your parent is guilty of credit card fraud and should be confronted. If you already have, and !lot nowhere, then treat this hke you would any other crime and report the perpetrator to the police. There are legal remedies you can .take. In case you feel you are alone with this problem, I'm sad to say you have a lot of company. It is important that you waste no time in getting this mess straightened out. Please do not for one moment feel guilty about breaching "'family honor." That happened .when your parent began to fraudulently use your identity.

He had strong beliefs but was not ruthless in .imposing them. There are some Americans who believe that President Reagan was one of our finest leaders. Cellai nly. his strong ·stand against the Soviet Union changed the world for the better. He also put forth a good moral example, and Amedc a's image throughout tl)e world was greatly enhanced during his tenure. The biggest deficit I saw in Reagan was hi s fai lure to capitalize on his enormo us popularity 10 initiate social change. He was brilliant in illuminating issues so that most everyone could understand them. But he lacked the "crusader" gene. He was cautious and did nm use his gift of persuasion as well as he might have. Here's an example. Ronald Reagan was firmly against abortion on moral and historical grounds. I have a 'handwritten let!er by him dated Jan. 14. 1980. when he was trying to capture momentum in the presidential primaries. The letter ·says this : " I have a very strong belief that interrupting a pregnancy means the taking of a human life. In our Judea-C hri stian tradition this can only be justified as a matter of self-defense." A simple statement but one that could have engendered worthwhile debate about a divisive issue and , about America's JudeaChristian tradition. which today some are seeking to deny and destroy. But Reagan was not a confrontational guy: he did not want to market his personal beliefs to the nation and to the world, l saw that reluctance as an opportunity lost, especiall y si nee Ronald Reagan often. transcended party lines.

Ronald Reagan deserved the respect of Americans, even if you disagreed with his political poim of view. The truth is that Reagan was a decent. honest man who tried to improve his country. In short, he was a. patriot who did not deserve to be mocked during the final days of his life by some Hollywood pinheads with agendas. Generally speaking, Americans responded to Ronald Reagan because he seemed accessible to them. He came across as a nice guy who loved his country and respected its traditions. No . BY CALVIN WOODWARD AND JEFF WILS ASSOCIATED PRESS WRtTERS It has only been 16 years since Reagan left the presidency. but things have changed a bit, haven' t they? President Cli nton was a polarizing figure. and so is George .W Bush. Today, we have bitter ideologues on both sides that see politics as blood sport and any dissent as a threat. The age of Reagan was notable for its lack of viciousness, at least in public. Because of hi s Alzheimer's, the former president missed the degeneration of the political debate over the pa~t decade. I believe it would have saddened him. History will be kind to Ronald Reagan because he, himself. was kind to so many people, and what goes around defini tely comes around. We Americans sho uld be proud we elected thi s man to the presidency and .should remember what he stood for: freedo m, self-reliance and pride in the land of his birth.

Calif. -At a sunset hilltop ceremony, a week of public mourning for Ronald Reagan came to a close with his three surviving children poignantly remembering their father - the 40th president of the United States - as loving and dedicated. Michael Reagan, Patti Davis and Ron Reagan Jr. shared their memories Friday with fonner first lady Nancy Reagan and a host of foreign dignitaries. politicians and movie stars who came to the Ronald Reagan Presidential Librar)' for the last goodbye. Reagan's daughter Maureen. from hi s tirst marriage. died from cancer in 200 I.; 'He is home now. He' is free,' said his son, Ron Reagan Jr., recalling his father's 10-year struggle with Alzheimer's disease. 'In his final letter to the American people, Dad wrote, 'l now begin the journey that will lead me into the sunset of my life.' This evening, he has arrived.' The · children's remarks capped five days of memorial tributes and . eulogies on both coasts, complete with viewings of Reagan's coffin both at the library and at the Capitol Rotunda in Washington . Accompanied by a >toic Mrs. Reagan. the flag-draped ca>ket arrived at the library after a flight from Washington and a slow. 25-mile motorcade from the Navy's Point Mugu air station. Hundreds of well-wishers cheered Mrs. Reagan when she left the plane, and crowds along the motorcade route waved !lags, held their hands over their hearts and applauded as the hearse pa,sed. The service earlier at Washington National Cathedral drew the four living ex-president,, 25 heads of state or go\'emmenl, II fanner leaders and . more than 180 ambassadors and foreign ministers. 'Ronald Reagan belongs to the ages now.· President Bush said in his eulogy, 'bul we prefermJ it when he belonged to us.' As the sun set Friday over the Pacific Ocean , Michael Reagan. Reagan's adopted son. praised hi s father for never making him feel different because he wasn't a biological child. 'Ron Reagan adopted me · into his family in 1945. I was the chosen one. I was the lucky one,' he said. 'In all these years. he never mentioned that l wa~ · adopted either behind my back or in lront of me. I wa' his son. Michael Edward Reagan." Michael Reagan also told of advice his father gave him when he decided to marry. ·He sent me a lener about marriage and .how imponant it was to be faithful to the woman you love. With a P.S.: 'You'll never get in trouble if you say I lo1e you at least once a day.' I'm sure he told Nancy every day 'I love you." Patti Davis said that in her father's last moment. 'when he opened his eyes. eyes that had not opened for many. many days. and looked at my motl1er. he showed us that neither disease nor dealh can conquer love."

LEXINGTON. Ky. - A watch exists · for southern Ohio and most of eastern and central Kentucky as most likelv Blue Mold inoculum has ·moved east and north from initial outbreaks. Nearly all reported cases have involved transplants, either while still in the transplant production system or out-planti ngs of fo liar and systemic blue tnold from infested operations. Most cases have involved lloat-greenhouse, but continned cases have also been found in outdoor lloat beds, and traditional plant beds, too. Where new lesions have been found in fields not involving tile setting of infested trunsplants. only a few widely scattered lesions have been found. Blue mold is much more prevalent than is being reported, based on the strong activity occurring in transplant sites that are known to have. it and the disease-conducive nature of the weather experienced during the past month. SYRACUSE - Aspecial meeting of the Syracuse village Council will be held at 1:30 p.m. Sunday at the municipal building for the purpose of discussing the fire department. Bridge from Page A1 about long traffic delays once early construction on the Ohio side begins. On the West Virginia side of the project, crews have completed the abutment, four piers and the footer for another pier. The total bridge project involves seven piers, · an abutment on each side of the river, and two towers located in the middle of the bridge which will anchor the distinctive cable stays. It is the construction of those towers which has been most troublesome as a result of the frequent spring rains, Tilli s said. "The water being up and then down again has caused us some problems," Tillis said. "The coffer dams built to enable construction of the towers in the middle of the river are only built five feet above the river's normal pool. Once a heavy rain has ended, crews must wuit for the water to recede, then remove the water, mud and debris the high water leaves behind in the dams." "It's a real mess, and we don't just lose a <jay's progress because of the rain." Wet weather aside, Tillis said · he expects the overall project to remain on schedule. Ground was broken on the project just a year ago, and the b~idge is sheduled for completion in the fall of 2006.

Indians' catcher Martinez catches on quickly BY TOM WITHERS Associated Press CLEVELAND Victor Martinez pulls off a surprise nearly every time he takes the field. Just last week, the Indians' catcher peered at his target 60 feet away in Jacobs Field and nodded. He wound up and snapped off a better-than-average curveball to reliever Jose Jimenez, who had briefly reversed roles with his batterymate. After Martinez's curve dropped like a rock into his glove, Jimenez signaled a strike. It was an otherwise mundane moment during pregame batting practice except for one notable detail: Martinez, a right-hander, threw it lefthanded. His unexpected ambidexterity is the latest quality revealed in the 25-year-old Martinez, who in iwo months has developed into a leader, an RBI machine and a possible AllStar in his . first full major league season, With the exception of Detroit's Ivan Rodri ~uez, Martinez has been the AL stop catcher. "There doesn't seem to be a whole lot this kid can't do,'' · said Cleveland third-base coach Joel Skinner, a former big league catcher who also se rve s as Martinez's main tutor. " He's handled every chalJengc that we've put ih front of him so far," Skinner said. '·R. nd then some." Martinez, a converted shortstop who won two batting titles and two MVPs in the minors. has become Cleveland's best player quicker than anyone anttcip: ted. A switch-hitter. Martinez has been among the league's RBI leaders for weeks. Going into the · weekend, he was batting .309 with 10 homers and 47 RBls, incluliing 42 as a catcher -most in the majors. Manincz suffered the first hiccup in hi s breakout season on Thursday when he sprained his right foot while rounding first base in the ninth inning. He's expected to mis,, a weekend series against Cincinnati . With a sweet swing born on a softball tield near his home in Venezuela. Martinez is becoming the middle-of-the-order run producer the Indians ha ve craved since Manny Ramirez and Jim Thome bolted as free agent s. "He's special." said Hall of · Farner Eddie Murray, in his third year as Cleveland's batting coac~. " He has the uncanny ability to get the bat on the ball. He always seems to get the big hit. He sees the tield, knows where the holes are at, and goes for them." He's finding them, too. On May 3. Indians manager Eric Wedge moved Martinez into the cleanup spot and he's driven in runs smce. In 31 starts hitting founh, Martinez is batting 325 (40-for-123) with 13 dottbles. five homers and 36 RBis. Those numbers are more impressive considering he ' d never hit in the No. 4 hole before and that he 's batting .333 (32,for-96) with runners on base. "I'm a little bit surprised," Welige said. "He's just jumped in there like gang busters." Martinez, too. is a little stunned by his early success. ''Ye ah, I am," he said sheepishly while reclining in Cleveland's clubhouse. " But I'm just trying to help the team and trying lo get better." Along with his potent bat, Martinez has improved defensively. He threw out just one of 21 base runners to open the season but has gone I0-of-29 since. He credits Skinner for helping improve his mechanics. Skinner says Mm1inez's work ethic is why opponents are not running wild on the basepaths anymore. ' "He's alway s working on things," Skinner said. ''That's why he's got a chance to be great."

On a young team, we needed someone to, and Victor hasn ' t backed dow~ from the responsibility. And. he's getting better everyday." Opponents have taken notice, too.

But he's such a disciplined hitter. that he is continumg to put up big numbers. · Angels manager Mike Scioscia, a two-time NL AllStar catcher, liked what he saw in Maninez when the Indians won three of four last weekend in Anaheim. "Anytime you see a young kid come up and move into a premium position (catcher) and be able to handle himself the way he is. it's impressive," Sciascia said. "Combine that with the way he's been swinging the bat and you've got yourself an exciting young player."

Huggins' arrest was the latest black mark on a program with a history of players getting arrested or suspended for various infractions, ranging from domestic violence to punching a police horse. Several have been acquitted or had the chargM dropped. The NCAA put the basketball program on two. ·years' probation in 1998 for various rules violalions, and stripped the university of scholarships as part of its punishment. The NCAA concluded that there was a lack of institutional control over the program. It found that basketball staff members gave improper favors to players and made misleading statements to investigators . Gordon from Page 81 never felt right and he fell a lap behind pace.

Stewart's stiffest competition Sunday could be Ryan Newman, who lost any realistic chance of winning at Dover when he also missed the entrance to pit road. Newman was the chief beneficiary when Stewart's engine expired last July at Poco.no. Newman wound up with one of hi s series-leading eight victories after claiming one of II poles . That also set the NASCAR standard a year ago. Yet with more than a third of this season complete, neither has won. Stewart is looking for his 18th career victory, Newman his lOth. · Stewart knows how the race probably will be won on the flat Pocono surface he likens to a road cour.se. It has three distinct \urns and requires drivers to shift on the track - as they do on the serpentine layouts in Sonoma, Calif., and Watkins Glen , N.Y. They are the only road courses on the NASCAR circuit. "If there's a guy who can get all three of those corners right, then that's the guy who's going to win the race," Stewart said. . Another top candidate would be Stewart's Joe Gibbs Racing teammate, Bobby Labonte. He 's· a three-time Pocono winner, and in 1999 completed the most recent sweep of the two races held each summer on the mountaintop. Labonte also realizes the difficulty of racing here. "There isn't another track we race at that's quite likt; Pocono," he sa id. "T he three corners are just so different. "It's important to be open minded and get as comfortable as possible in the car knowing th at in one of the corners you might be giving up a little speed in order to gain momentum on the other parts of the track." Still. fo rm isn't worth much at Pocono, where there have been eight different winners ·in the last eig ht races. Jeff Gordon and Dale Jarrett also have done well at Pocono, joining Labonte as the only three-time winners here among active drivers. 1,040; 35. Jeff Green 988: 36. Denike Cope 804; 37.

Martin said the increased popularity and sponsorship dollars that ha ve attracted more fans to NASCAR in the past few xears have had negative and positive affects on the sport. "The growth has made so many opportunitie s for people who want to work in racing," Martin said. "There's so many more employees with these teams. It's made it wonderful. Nowadays you can go to school and get an engineering education at NASCAR technical sc hools and get out of school and get a job, whereas there weren't that many jobs 10 years ago. There are probably 10 times as many jobs." · The downside, he said, is the increasing amount of time needed to keep up. "Demand s on your time are much more great," Martin said. ''It 's an increasingly demanding job now and that take s away from any kind of personal life. " Even so. Manin, who has been racing since he was 15. isn't looking toward retirement.

During the next three years. Martin plans to add memorabilia from his threedecade long racing career. "In the showroom we 'll make a display of all my race car collection. all my trophies, all the great history of my career," said Martin, who drives for Roush Racing. "Because I have that stuff collected now in a private place where no one is able to see and enjoy it ." He said the dealership is a first step toward returning to the Arkansas community and supporting the people who helped him through .his years in NASCAR.

The biggest change for Sunday 's Pocono 500 will be depending solely on electronics to determine the positions of the cars on the track . Every car has a transponder that can be read by 14 antennas around Pocono Raceway. They identify the position of each car on the track and will freeze the field instantl y under a caution. "We feel like we can eliminate the human element that led a lot, in part. to the extended caution last weekend. and score the race and detem1ine who is in what position, in what lap 'they're in, electronically," Helton said. The antennas were installed on the tracks in the offseason, but officials still relied on spotters and video replays. Helton said the human system in the control tower will be kept in place in case of possible elec· tronic fai lures. . Also. pi< road will not oren for the first time under cautton until the race leader passes the pits for the second time: Previously, the p1ts were closed until the pace car passed the entrance to pit road.

The pass. which allows the first car a lap down to get onto the lead lap, will be enforced during the normal reshuffling of the field durmg pit stops under caution.

Page 86 • ~unbap tt:illlt1i -~entinrl _ Synthetic golf? Some in iw.va. skeptical BY JOHN RABY Associated Press CHARLESTON, W.Va. Decades from now golfers may look back in amazement at Arnold Palmer's foresight. Imagine a course much · longer than today's versions with· not a blade of grass in sight. Palmer recently predicted some new layouts could be made entirely from artificial surfaces. V.est Viroinians · believe .otherwise. §ome feel that won't come anv time soon . at least not here. : To them, fake grass would be a natural course ruined. ·'Hmmm. I've never heard of such an idea." said Vivian Stockman. an omanizer for !he Ohio " Valley Environmental Coalition. :'That 's so far into the future that there ·s too many unknown s about it."' Groups like ·hers long have · chided the golf world for the amounts of pesticides and :water used on courses. But to :them. going from g:reen g:rass tO green turf can't be much bener. · "If you're talking ·about clearin~ land of its natural vegetation. there's bound to he some bad ecological impli· cations with that." Stockman :said. : Palmer, who has designed more than 200 courses worldwide. said the demands of water use, particular!~ in the West and Midwest, wlll make :Synthetic golf a reality. : He believes there won't be any resistance to such a :movement. In fact, discussions are already under way, he said. "Shon-term. it 's still hard ·to comprehend," said Danny :Fisher. executive director of the West Virginia ' Golf .Assoc iation. : "Mr. Palmer is well educat:e£1 and well known in archit~cture and talks to a lot of ·~xperts in the field . But I would think artificial-turf golf courses would have to be, at a minimum , two. three. four generations down the i.oad." · ·. But why not go artificial? Baseball and football have done it. ~iris "Golf i> even more of a traditionalist sport than any of those holding on to historv and tradition.'"· Fisher said. ~ Fisher believes what might end up happening is a blend of grass and turf together. Some courses already have experimented with artificial greens. tee boxes and practice range~ . "But completely artiticial?" Fisher said . '"We're too ingrained into the way the real game is played for gener- . ations . That wouldn't be considered golf. Personally, I don't look forward to the day. It's too different." The folks who grip-and-rip for a living would salivate at the chance of watching a ~o lf ball bounce 50 yards at a t1 me off a fake surface until coming to rest 350 or 400 yards away. It would almost be like watching a stone ski p off water. And while golfers on grass splash through puddles following a heavy rain, artificial courses might enable them to play without havin~ to change their socks. Golt carts won't have to follow the traditional "90-degree rule" intended to keep grass from being ruined by tire tracks. Another plus would be the reduced upkeep. There would be no pesticides, no constant watering. and no mowing. That would save thousands, ·perhaps millions. irt longterm labor costs. Then again, golfers love the ability ·to shape a shot and make a ball stop quickly on a · grassy green. That would be difficult to do on a rock-hard ~rtificial surface. "The problem I see is you need a cement base, so you're going to have to make the course extremely long. You would need a 16,000-yard golf course to accomrr19date the roll," said Craig Berner, the head pro at Sissonville's Edgewood Country Club, site of next week's West Virginia Open . "In West Virginia, maybe down the road," he said. "Nothing anytime soon." By then, Berner could be a 70-year-old grandfather still hittmg those 300-yard drives.

'; Installation of a new natural grass playing surface for Sam Hood Field, which is u!>ed by both the men 's and women's li:ams, should be finished by mid-July - in plenty of time (pr the Thundering Herd ~omen 's September First ~orne opener. ;~:·we desperately needed ttds,'" said Marshall men's soc· iier coach Bob Gray. "With the ~ move to Conference USA, we needed to upgrade the facility to bring in some top quality teams in 2005." The resurfacing project nearly ended before it began. After the old grass was sprayed and ·killed, the entire field was dot· ted with sprigs, or tiny twigs. As soon as the sprigs are placed, they must be heavily watered. But shortly after placing the sprigs at Sam Hood Field, Marshall had two water line breaks. making it impossi - ble to water the field. However. the Huntington Fire Depanment offered to water the field with one ·o f its trucks. "The fire department saved the entire project," said Scott Morehouse, Marshall's associate athletic director for facilities and game operations. "We owe them a huge thanks for coming out and giving us a hand." Morehouse said the new Bermuda grass surface should last indefinitely. Dodge Stratus SXT Auto . AC . Tilt , C ru l•e. PO'J'Vllr Sent.

(Charlene Hoeflich ) running to the ri ver to walch the hoa1s and listen to the music was just ''something you did." It made a lasting impression -one which in I\169 as a seoUl leader led him to build a ri verboat float with a working 'calliope for his troop's entry in a parade. It ·Was eonstn.Jcled of old organ pipes gathered up was completed he had a unique one of a kind instrument, whtch he describes as a "hybrid Tangley·style calliope," It had cost him about $2.500.

COMM iunbap lim~ -ienttnel Sunday, June 13, 2004 Sunday,June13,2004 Here's what you should know about dividends Up until last year, the topic of stock dividends may not have always enthralled investors. But when the new tax laws were enacted, a lot of people started thinking about dividends and maybe yo u should, too. Thanks to the tax legislation, dividends are now being taxed at a maximum rate of 15 percent. The new rate was effective Jan. I. 2003. and expired. on Dec. 31. 2008. Previously, dividends were taxed at your individual income tax rate. As a result, companies are issuing more dividends - and some companies that newr paid dividends before are now starting to do just that. _ Of course. some investors have always known about the value of investing in compa· nies that have a hi story of paying dividends ~ and that have increased their dividends over time. Typically, these companies are well run. with a strong interest in rewarding their investors. Furthermore, in addition to paying dividends, many of these stocks offer growth potentiaL So, now that dividends are more tax-friendly, you have even more reason to learn more about them. For starters, dividends can be paid in various forms. but there are two major categories: cash and stock. Cash dividend s are the most popu· lar; they are typically paid to stockholders out of the corporation 's current earnings or accumulated profits. For example. suppose you _ own I 00 shares of the fictitious ABC, Inc.

Many are very quickly prepared, too, as is the case with the following pasta salad. The salad's Greek flavor, texttrre and creamy Mediteiranean taste come from yogurt, fresh mint and Kalamata olives - nothing fancy, but each makes its mark u1 the final fresh, tangy combination. The recipe is from "Everyday Food," the summer-oriented June issue of the handy little magazine from the kitchens of Martha Stewart Living. If your salad seems .a linle dry, the editors say, stir in a little more yogurt just before serving. They point out, too, that you .can replace the shrimp with 12 ounces of thinly sliced boneless, skinless chicken brea~t.

Popper, D.O.; Ph.D., M.P.H. is the Medical Director for Occupational Medicine at Holzer Clinic. Man's best friend bites more than 4.7 million people per year. As many as 800,000 people require some type of medical treatment with more than half of them being children. In the U.S. from 1979 to 1996, · 304 people died from dog attacks. Most of the deceased were children: The chances that the victim of a fatal dog attack will be a burglar are one in 177; the odds that it will be a child are 7 out of 10. For every fatal dog bite in the United States, there are 230,000 bites that arc not treated by a physician. For children, dog bites now cause more emergency room visits than any other activity except playing baseball and softball ; exceeding injuries brought about by playground accidents, ATV's, inline skates. skaicboards and volleyball. And the problem is growmg. A 10-year study showed that the number of dog bites rose 37 percent, while the number of dogs kept as pets increased by only 2 percent. Dog bites are a largely preventable public health problem and adults and children can and should learn to reduce their chances of being bitten. So what can you as a pet owner, fu ture pet owner, or community member do about this problem? As a pet owner, carefully consider your pet selection. Have your dog vaccinated against rabies and preventable infectious diseases. Parasite control is important to how your dog feels and behaves. License your dog with the community as required.

Roof material· Shake or asphaH sllingles • Attic : yes SUNDAY PUZZLER Although our column usually tackles a specific project or subject, this week we're sharing some useful tips with you. Deck safety check Recent deck collapses you might have read about underscore the need for proper con· struction and penodtc deck safety checks. Despite good plans, building permits, mspections and building codes, as decks age they can become unsafe. Boards rot. insects destroy wood integrity, and fasteners and railings cot)· sequently loosen. The result: a weakened structure. The bigger and higher (and older) the deck, porch or balcony, the greater is the n.eed for doing things right and for frequent checkups. Drilling ceramic tile If you're installing a towel bar, shelf or paper holder. drill straight and· true - and prevent drill-tip slip and slide. Here's how: Make an "X" by placing two strips of ma~king tape over your mark. Then drill through it, using a carbide tip bit. The tape will keep the bi1 from traveling as it grinds through the surface glazing and on, into and through the softer ceramic back. Ease up toward the end to avoid pushing out the backside of the drywall or backer board. The cleaner the hole, both through the tile and inside the wall, the better hollow-wall fasteners will grip and hold. Concrete painting preparation Whether you're adding a touch of color 011 a concrete bench or table -or painting an entire garage or basement floor - here· s a preparation that retards - if not eliminates - peeling. Wash first with warm water. rinse and let dry thoroughly, at least a day. Then, using a clean pamtbrush, apply a generous coat of white vinegar as a pre-paint primer. Once dry, it will increase the bond, and paints will hold and last much longer. White vinegar pre-wash works well on metal, wood and plastic surfaces, too. Candle wax on carpets One of the toughest carpet cleanups is melted candle wax. Cover drips with a brown paper g ucery fug and gently run a wann iron over the spot. Start with a low temperarure, and keep checking and increasing the temperature as yon go. The heat will tiquefy the w: x and the paper bag wilf absort it. Keep checkin~ and repositioning the bag until all wax is absorbed. Caution: too much heat can • ACROSS Here are some 1ips for making li1e around the house a linle easier.

Hollow-wall stud helpers When you open a wall or and have build new exposed framing- take time to think ahead concerning things you might want to install tn the future. Atop windows, add extra lumber nailed flush between the studs just below the top plate at each end of the lleader. Later on, you'll have solid backing for any curtains , valences and accessories you want to install. Add backup blocking anywhere you might need extra support later on (for grab bars, shelves or wall-mounted accessories). Not building or opening up a wall? Add strength and support with surface'mounted half-inchplus lumber. For a spiffier look, use a prefab shelf instead with plastic laminate on all six sides and ma1ching snap-in screw head covers. Rug corners that curl Got rug comers that won· t stay put and curl and lift up? All you need is a piece of peeland-stick floor tile a foot square, at least. With a pair of scissors or a utility knife, trim off each of the comers to fonn • t~e house a little easier. (AP · four.Jarge triangles. Then peel the backing and stick each one to the underside of the rug, where corners are curl in g. The tile will s1raighten the unsillhtly curl and the extra wetght will help keep them fia1 and in place. Barbecue tuneup Ready for summ.cr cookouts, but your grill isn't? Here's a quick refresher ·course: Wrap grill racks loaded with crusty .barbecue sauce with aluminum foil (all around with the shiny side in), close the lid and cook on high for 15 minutes. lf the lava rocks below are greaseladen, don't replace them. Just tum them over and "cook" them as well. Later, grill racks can be rinsed and brushed to look like new, and grease will have cooked right out of the Lava rocks. Spray high-heat glass windows with glass cleaner, and dab some fine gray fireplace ash on a dampened soft cloth. Rub, and tile ash will penneate the microscopic pores and reduce surface tension. making cleaning easier. Oven cleaner adds horsepower, too.

C!Jallipoli~ Jaail!' t!l:rihunt fotnt flta•ant ~tgtsttr WHAT IS INVERSION THERAPY? Inversion therapy is not a new idea. In fact. it is believed that inverSion was used as early as 400 B.C., when Hippocrates. the father of me.dicine . first watched a patient have hi s knees and ankles tied 10 a ladder and then hoi sted upside down to relieve pain. There i~ overwhelming evidence that spending a few minutes each day hanging upside down prove~ benefiCial to yo ur back. as well as to your general health , by counteracting the downward pull of gravity. If you have .ever taken a yoga c lass. you know that many 'poses involve inverted positiotis, such as headstands . However. yo u can experience inversion therapy more easi ly through inversion tables or gravity boots, like those offered by Teeter Hang Ups. ' The Daily Sentinel i>unba!' t!ttmes -&tntfntl SEEKING OUT RELIEF In recent years. more and more people are turning to the age-old remedy of inversion therapy to ease their aching bodies. In versi on therapy puts gravity to work for you by placin g your body in line with the downward force of gravi ty.

The table ·s design allows you to fully contro l the speed of rotation and angle of iriversion, giving you a secLJre and comfortable invers ion e~ perience . HOW TO BEGIN INVERSION THERAPY As with any exerci se, consult with yo ur doctor to see if inversiOn is right for you. Here i s some advice from Teeter Hang Ups o n how to begin your therapy: Virtually all issues of di scomfort that occur with new invertees are from going too far. too fast.

Most people invert for five to 15 minLJtes once ur twice a day. There i'l no standard limi1 --just li sten to yam body.
