you would like.
· DEAR
ABBY:
Last
Saturday afternoon, I attended
a cousin's baby shower hosted
by our "Aunt Flo." It was held
at a local restaurant, and Flo
provided the cake and decorations. The guests were expected to pay for their own meals
and drinks.
The invitation revealed
nothing about this arran~ement. Those of us attendmg
didn't find out until we called
to RSVP. It seems unfair to
burden guests with this cost,
when they are also paying for
a baby gift - not to mention
travel expenses for those who
came from out of town.
Not wanting to disappoint
the mom-to-be, I attended even though the afternoon
ended up being a big strain on
my budget. What do you think

ORTLAND, Ohio (1863) - A skirmish between
Confederate and Union armies occurred at 10 a.m.
Saturday at the Harris farm near the crossing to
Buffington Island.
.
Confederate Gen. John Morgan had come to the end of his
rope and was forced to make a last stand on some elevated
ground a few hundred yards from escape across the Ohio
River.
Two Confederate artillery pieces were set up on a slil\ht
ridge overlooking a long field bordered by trees on one s1de
and a cornfield on the other. Major James Eplin, CSA, said
after a long march that brought the Confederates to the river
crossing Friday night, Morgan let his men rest, confident
they would not be harassed the next morning.
Eplin said he knew he was being pursued by Union forces,

GALLIPOLIS, Ohio Local law
enforcement officers have been busy over
the weekend responding to several vehicle
break-ins and even an alleged man with a
gun.
Gallipolis City police ofticers were called
to Wai-Marl just before I0:30 p.m. Friday
after Gallia County 911 received an anonymous report that a man was in \the store
threatening a woman with a handgun.
According to oflicers, no evidence was
found to support the claim, but they will
continue to investigate the incident. WaiMart employees interviewed said they were
unaware of the alleged incident.
At 5:30 a.m. Friday, police officers were
called to the Super 8 Motel to investigate
the theft of items from several cars in the
motel's parking lot.
Gallia County sheriff's deputies investigated break-ins of several vehicles in the
parking lot of the Budget Inn on Jackson
Pike just before 6 a.m. Friday, and were
called the College Hill Motel in Rio Grande
around 7:15a.m. to 1nvestigate the theft of
some items from a vehicle parked there.
,Pet. Chad Walla~e f1&lt;-uJ the GallU..
County Sheriffs Office said the increase in
m1mber of calls has put a strain on local
lawmen.
"We have all been working very hard to
handle the increase in volume of calls for
both violent crimes and property crimes,"
Wallace said. "Our officers are being
stretched to the limit."
Wallace said the initial investigation
reveals thai some of the incidents may be
related.
"I do want to stress that anyone who has
electronic devices located in their homes or
vehicles needs to record the make, model
and serial numbers of those products," he
said. "Doing that will not only make our
jobs easier, but makes 'it easier for us to
return those items after they are recovered."

Ohio and California sue AOL Time
Warner over investment losses

.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)
- Two states sued AOL
Time Warner on Friday to ·
recover hundreds of millions
of dollars lost by public
employee pension funds following the merger that created the media conglomerate.
The lawsuits filed by Ohio
and California accuse the
company of misleading
investors ~fore the merger,
promising profits that never
materialized.
Ohio's five pension funds
and the Bureau of Workers
Compensation lost more
than $100 million as the
company's stock fell following the merger. said Ohio
Attorney General Jim Petro.
The suit by California's
Public
Employees'
Retirement System, the
nation's largest public pen-

sion ft.lnd, seeks recovery of
$250 million, said Pat
Macht, a spok(;JWoman for
the pension fund. The fund
for state 'teachers was
expected to file a similar
sutt, she said.
The lawsuits say America
Online and Time Warner
misled investors about the
companies' financial. condilions and falsified docu. ments filed with fedeml regulators to complete their
merger in 200 I.
"An intentional breakdown
in corporate accountability a cooking of the books - has
caused Ohio pension funds to
suffer," Petro said. He said
other states are likely to file
similar lawsuits.
A spokeswoman for the
New York City-based company declined to comment.

.

Ohio's complaint accuses
the company of fraud,
breach of fiduciary duty and
other violations of federal
securities and state laws.
Both states also named as
defendants the companies'
executives and board members and the investment and
accounting firms that participaled in the merger.
':In order to inflate AOL's
stock prior to the merger and
to secure Time Warner shareholder approval of the sale of
Time Warner to AOL and
then to continue to inflate the
price .. . after the merger,
defendants presented AOL's
business as achieving record
growth and profitability,"
Ohio's lawsuit says.
The promised growth did
not take place; it said.
Ohio's public pension

funds owned Time Warner
stock before the merger.
They owned three million
shares in the combined. company and acquired two million more.
Share prices were about ·
$49 immediately after the
· merger but plunged to less
than $10, Petro said. ·
·
. Ohio didn't join a pending
class-action lawsuit by individual stockholders. They
instead sued under a different
Ohio statute that covers institutional investors, Petro said.
''The class-action lawsuit,
you get peanuts at the end of
it," Petro said.
The
Securities
and
Exchange Commission and
the Justice Department are
investi~ating the company's
financtal and accounting
practices.

DAYTON, Ohio (AP) Stalwarts of American aviation history flocked together
Friday night to renew
acquaintances and swap stories as they are honored by the
National Aviation Hall of
Fame during the . IOOth
anniversary of powered flight.
Twenty-one hall of fame
enshrinees, including former
astronauts Neil Armstrong and
John Glenn, attended a reception and dinner sponsored by
the hall at the U.S. Air Force
· Museum. About 900 members
of the public paid '$150 apiece
to attend the event.
"I'd rather be with a bunch
of pilots than Hollywood
characters any day," quipped
actor Cliff Robertson, who
served as master of ceremonies. "I'm positive I'm
.with the people I really love."
Glenn said he and the
other enshrinees don't consider themselves heroes. He
said many were simply in
aviation, flight testing or
combat when opportunity
presented itself.
"These are all people who
did their duty, were proud of
it, and they're being honored

for it," said Glenn, the first
American to orbit the Earth.
Several enshrinees shared
"hangar stories." tales of
their aviation experiences.
Joe Kittinger, who set a
record for the longest parachute freefall. recalled the
time he and his colleagues
pushed a dummy out of a
plane over Wright Field to
test a parachute. The parachute failed to open, and the
dummy bounced 10 feet
after hitting the ground.
Kittinger and his colleagues drove·out to the site,
pitched the dummy into the
back of the truck and drove
off, not realizing a general's
wife and 150 of her tea-party
guests were watching. And
they dido 't know the body
was a dummy.
"When we got back over
to Wright Field, the phone
was ringing off the hook,"
Kittinger said. "That was a
hell of a one to explain."
Former test pilot Scott
Crossfield was the first person to fly twice the speed of
sound, doing it in 1953 in a

ELIZABETH , W.Va. (AP)
- Two days after oflicials
announced former POW
Jessica Lynch would be coming home , residents were
raising money for another
injured soldier from West
Virginia's smallest county.
A July 13 spaghetti dinner
organized by workers at the
Wirt County Courthouse raised
$2,000 for Marine Sgt. David
Bell, an Elizabeth native who
hasn't lived here in eight years.
"There was not a table
space available," said Betsy
Bell, David's mother.
David Bell. 27, lived in this
town of 900 with his parents,
Ernie and Betsy and older
brother Daniel, until he left
for the service. For as long as
Betsy Bell can remember,
"Dave was a Marine."
"All he ever wanted to do
was be a Marine. I had to
·paint his room green because
that was the Marine color,"
Betsy said, laughing . "That
was my son's life. Now this
may be taken away from him
because of one moment."
David had been an instructor at the Amphibious Assault
School Battalion at Camp
Pendleton in San Diego for
the past three years.
On May 20, he was training
recruits when a round in a 40
mm grenade launcher jammed.
When the next round fired off,
parts of the barrel exploded,
hitting him on the top and left
side of his head. He lost his left
eye in the accident.
News of the accident got
back home quickly. Soon
·after, the town pulled together to help the family.
"I don't know what we
would have done. They are so
supportive," Betsy Bell said.
"My son needed a lot of
prayers. His name was on the
prayer chain from one end of
the country to the other."
In the courthouse hallway, a
picture of David now sits
beside one of Lynch, which
has been up since her capture
March 23 during the War in
Iraq. A notebook for David
also sits next to one for Lynch,
for people to sign and send get
well wishes. During a prayer
·vigil in June, residents ofWirt
County, which led the state in
unemployment last month at
15. 1 percent, raised about
$200 to help with travel
expenses for the Bell family.
"We do whatever it takes to
help out whoever," Wirt
County Assessor Debbie
Hennen said. "We just take
care of our own."

Marine Sgt. David Bell's parents, Ernie and Betsy Bell, pose with
their son's picture inside their Newark, W.Va., home, Friday. On
May 20, David Bell was training recruits at Camp Pendleton ,
Calif., when a round in a 40 mm grenade launcher jammed.
When the next round fired off, parts of the barrel exploded, hitting him on the top and left side of his head. He lost his left eye
in the accident. News of the accident got back home quickly.
Soon after, the town pulled together to help the family. (AP)
The accident broke or shattered every bone on the left
side of David's face, from his
jaw to the top of his head.
Doctors tried to save his left
eye, but couldn't. The trontal
lobe of his brain was removed
because of bone tragments and
replaced with a metal plate.
He has 132 stitches from
ear to ear across the top of his
head and down to his jaw. He
has lost 16 pounds because of
difficulties in eating, family
members said.
David's wife Holly said all
the letters from his hometown
and across the country have
helped pull him through.
"Mostly they (letters) say
how proud they are of him and
how their hearts are with him
during his recovery. Just the
kind of sentiments he needed
to feel he wasn'talone and that
people were rooting for him,"
she said iri a telephone interview from California.
There also have been bake
sales, yard sales. car washes,
church competitions and general donations for the Bell

Family Fund. About $5,000
has been raised so far, which
has been used for airplane
tickets for David's parents
and to help him in California.
'" I think it's just wonderful.
It just shows what a small
community can do when they
pull together. We never
expected this much."
David was released from the
hospital on May 30. He and
Holly travel to five or six doctor's appointments a week. He
has at least live more surgeries,
including plastic surgery, within the next six months to repair
the damage. Meanwhile, he is
trying to stay strong and busy.
No matter what the future
holds , he said Wirt County
will always be special for
what residents have done.
'"I get cards everyday from
people, some I don 't even
know. It's like a treat to open
the mailbox , it gives me a little more pride." ·
Betsy Bell said her son worries about what he will look like
and what he will do, now that
his dream appears to be over.

MORGANTOWN, W.Va.
(AP) - The state plans to .
revisit a study of an accidentin
prone
intersection
response to heightened safety
concerns spurred by a fatal
wreck involving an out-ofcontrol concrete truck.
The state Division of
Highways' May 2002 study
originally focused on easing
congestion at the intersection
of Interstate 68 and State Route
7. DOH workers now plan to

look for ways to improve safety at the intersection, where
more than 20 accident~ have
occurred since 1998.
"The study's the first big
thing to get out of the way,"
DOH Di strict 4 Engineer
Marvin Murphy said. "We're
going to look at all options
that will better the intersec tion . Then we ' II put a cost
figure to those and hopefully,
get the appropria,te funding."
The agency also plan s to

post signs on the westbound
lanes of 1-68 warning truckers of a steep grade on the
exit ramp and advising them
to check their brakes.
Kevin L. Gabbert, 36, of
Clarksburg, was killed June 26
when a Magic Concrete truck
careened out of control on the
1-68 exit ramp and crushed his
car. Gabbert's wife, Nancy
Gabbert, 34, wa~ injured.
The truck driver, Herbert
Lipscomb, 42, of Tunnelton

PageA4

With interest I read the
July 13th front-page article
on the State Teachers'
Retirement . System. A little
history of the STRS mess is
needed here.
.When retired teachers
stopped receiving their 13th
check that they have received
since 1980, and their health
~are costs changed, teachers
all over the state should have
been on the alert.
No, most older teachers
have been taught to trust the
system and don 't make
waves. In June 2002, teachers
received the first tin gle that
something could be tinancially wrong with our retirement
system. Since February 1999,
my teacher friends and I per.
sonally have attended all
regional retirement workshops to keep ourselves current on the issues. In 2000, I
scheduled an appointment in
· Columbus to .speak face-toface with STRS counselors to
become more knowledgeable
about my retirement system. I
STRS
attended another
scheduled-retirement meeting
in Columbus with a friend in
late 2002. Not one meeting or
counselor indicated that we
were heading for trouble. In
November 2002, I contacted
STRS by email about the
coming changes; the answer
was that a newsletter .would
be arriving for all me,mbers.
In February 2003, Connee
. Enslen, a Southern Local
teacher, and I attended a
regional meeting in Athens
with the STRS board members and the director, Herb
Dyer. We were allowed to ask
four questions, and Dyer
would answer them.
(I) STRS lost $58 billion of
our dollars in three years; I
asked why it took so long
after the first billion to fix
this; he gave no answer. I
asked if we could recover,
and his reply was,"probably
not". We are now in big trouble becau se as the state mandates, STRS must be solvent

for 30 years; STRS is now
solvent for 27 years. This is
against the law but so are the
fraudulent spending practices
of our fiduciaries. There is
also a Federal mandate in
each' state that does
not permit any state retirement system to spend the
retirement monies unless they
are checked against "what a
wise and prudent man would
do". Our Federal representative in Washington, DC, is
Cindi Moore; I emailed her
June 25, 2003; l had no reply
so I email again July 13.
(2) I asked why a teacher
would leave his/her retirement in STRS since the
financial disaster has arrived.
Dyer's reply, " you wouldn't if
you had other health care
coverage. In others words, he
said I had worked 31.7 years
for my health care, but he
didn't tell me that it would
cost nearly $600 a month for
myself and a spouse.
(3) I asked why the amount
for health care would not be
prorated for teachers in SEO;
Dyer did not know the
acronym, SEO.
He then
said," Oh, Southeastern
Ohio." I told him that! wanted it prorated becau se SEO
teachers made less money
than other districts" and would
have a difficult time paying
the same premium. I asked
for a comparison between
gross salaries $71 ,000+ compared to SEO $41,500. No
clear answer from Dyer
except, "it would have to go
before the le~i s lators for a
change in law' .

By this time, Dyer wanted to one of my former teachers

get answered, but I went to health care. I know those

State Teacher Retirement System: its messy history

many simply hope that they
can compensate for fading
eyesight, slowing reactions
and diminished judgment. In
sprawling Los Angeles,
there is great symbolic and
practical val ue to the• car.
But driving is a privilege,
not a .ri~ht. 1\vo bloodied
and debns-strewn blocks in
Santa Monica testify to the
need for an outside judge of
competence.
The smart first step ·was
attempted four yeru:s ago, in
a bill by then-state Sert. Tom
Hayden . A 15-year-old Santa
Monifa g.irl. was killed on
her W\!.&gt;' .to buy a snack at a
grocery store by a 96-yearold motorist whose last driving test was in 1918.
Hayden proposed a behindthe-wheel test for drivers 75
and older (as Illinoi s and
New Hampshire now do).
The reasonable measure al so

proposed gradually shortening license renewal periods,
to one year by age 90 .
Current state law requires
only that drivers 70 or older
pass a written test and vision
ellam at to- a Department of
Motor Vehicles office.
The most powerful senior
lobbying group, AARP,
backed a successful effort to
gut the ·bill , but even it
admits that age impairs
depth perception and reaction time.
The scale of Wednesday 's
carnage should encourage
legislators to follow the path
that Hayden originally set.
Democratic state Sen. Sheila
Kuehl represents Santa
Monica , the site of the
tragedy and Of the teenager' s
death 1n 1998. A natural ally
would be Sen. Jackie Speier,
D- Hillsboroug~ . · a
sta te
leader in government. reform

whose husband was killed in
a 1994 car accident.
New laws take time and
can' t do the whole job.
Family members who have
been delaying a serious talk
with a parent or aunt who
shouldn't be driving should
seize the moment. The DMV
and police officers should
al so ass~ r~ their authority
under extstmg law to require
behind-.the-wheel testing of
any driver they suspect is
un safe . Then, if an elderly
driver fails the test , the
DMV should giv.l) the driver
information
on
transit
options. .
.
The end of driving is hard
and inconvenient. for anyone
. m Southern Caltfornia, but
there are $pecial services
that offer help. There is an
art to navigating .the system,
and here are some good
places to start.

Thompson said.
People attending the fair
had the opportunity to learn
about numerous county
agencies and what they
offered throughout the area.
Displays were set UP. to
inform people about dtfferent topics, including medical
insurance, child care and
higher education.
"They can see what's
available, have some camraderie and something to eat,
enjoy themselves and hopefully see what the county
has," Fowler said.
Representatives
from
nearly 20 local agencies set
up displays to provide information to anyone at the fair
who showed .an interest in a
particular agency.
Anne Swedberg, a counselor at the Heart of
Appalachia
Educational
Opportunity Center in
Huntington, said the fair was
ll good place to notify local
citizens of the advantages
her program offers. She
added that the . program has
been in existence since

January and needed as much
exposure as it could get.
"It takes a while for communities to know you're
there and get the word out,"
Swedb1=rg said.
Swedberg said the program is designed to assist
adults as they further their
education.
. "Any type of training
beyond the high school level
can offer a world of opportunity and improve the financial picture for their family,"
Swedberg said of the families her program helps.
"We try to provide them
the suP.port and information
that will help them build that ·
bridge (from high school to
post-secondary school),"
she added.
Sally Fielder said she has
attended the fair nearly
every year it has been hosted, and she said she has
found something new each
time.
Fielder said she especially
appreciated, the fact th~t the
FRN was able to orgamze an
event in wliich numerous
local agencies could partici·
pate.
"Tiiis is the only way to
. know what programs are out
there . It really helps the
community," Fielder said.

NEW YORK (AP)
Armando Benitez made a successful debut in pinstripes.
The former Mets closer
pitched two innings and held a
four-run lead to help preserve
Roger Clemens' 302nd win as
the New York Yankees beat
the Cleveland Indians 10-4
Friday night.
Jason Giambi homered
twice, Ruben Sierra also connected and Alfonso Soriano hit
a two-run double for New
York, which rallied ·against
Cleveland for the second
~traight night and opened a
four-game lead over secondplace Boston in the AL East.
Benitez, maligned by Mets
fans for blowing seven of 28
save chances this year, was
obtained by the Yankees on
Wednesday in a trade for three
prospects.
Clemens (9-6) failed to hold
a 3-0 lead, allowing three runs
in the fourth and one in the
fifth. But the Yankees rallied
for five runs off Brian
Anderson (7-7) and Jason
Boyd in the sixth, an inning

Now that Leftwich was drafted by the

Hill represents a major contrast

Pennington an Leftwich were
renowned for their ability to pass the

Polian isn't the only opti·
mist as NFL training camps
open in the next I 0 days.
Even the dismal Cincinnati
Bengals have hope that new
coach Marvin Lewis can get
them to .500 for the first
time since 1996.
The best teams are more
cautious than the lesser
ones.
"A lot of luck plays into
winning a championship sometimes just a matter of
inches or feet," said Rich
McKay, general manager of
Tampa Bay, which won its
first NFL title last season.
"We're not going in saying we'll win the Super
Bowl again. We focus on
winning our division. Then
we try to get home-field
advantage. And then we
hope for luck.
"Last year, we finally got
some."
The past five seasons
prove that when the stars
are aligned right, almost
anyone can win.
The Rams .and Titans
went to the Super Bowl five
seasons ago afier being a
combined 12-20 the previ·
ous year; the Giants and
Ravens came from nowhere
to get there after that.
One player, second-year
QB Michael Vick, turned
Atlanta into a playoff team
last year and is largely
responsible for this year's
sellout at the Georgia
Dome, which until his
arrival was often half
empty.
Last year, a quarter of the
256 games were decided by
three points or fewer, and
there were a record 25 overtimes.
That's where luck comes
in, typified by an openingday contest in which
Cleveland's Dwayne Rudd
tossed his helmet to celebrate what he thought was a
victory over Kansas City
and was penalized, allowing the Chiefs to .kick a
winning field goal after
time had expired.
Even Tampa Bay' was
considered a second-tier
contender a year ago.
Sure the Bucs were regular playoff participants, but

Friends leave no
doubt Schramm's
life was memorable
DALLAS (AP) - · As his
health deteriorated, Tex
Schramm described exactly
how he wanted his memorial
service handled.
He picked specific people
to talk about specific areas of
his life, but he didn't want
them talking very long. He
expected them to need only a
few minutes each, and asked
that they keep the mood
upbeat.
· And, as an epitaph, he told
friend Gary Morris thtit he
"wanted to be remembered as
·someone who made a difference, someone who made history."
There's little doubt of that.
For 75 minutes Friday, football
dignitaries
Roger
Staubach, Don Shula and Paul
Tagliabue were among those
who recalled Schramm's passion for the Dallas Cowboys
and the NFL, and the pioneering role he had in turning both
into the powerful organizations they are today.
"There will never be another splendid blend of talent,
toughness and temperament,"
said Tagliabue, the NFL commi ssioner. "Millions and mil lions cif fans over decades
have enjoyed football because
of the things Tex did ."
Schramm,
who
died
Tuesday at age 83, was the
, first president and general
manager of the Cowboys, a
role he held for 29 years. He
oversaw the rise from expansio n team to "Americ a's
Team," a nickname he didn't
invent but hea vily promoted.
His association with the
team was so important that
the only personal item di splayed on the altar was a portrait of Schramm holding a
football, the Cowboys' star
logo shining over hi s right
shoulder.
Yet Schramm was arguably
even more influential on the
.entire league. He negotiated
,the merger with the AFL, ran

Texas Earnest Schramm, the innovative
former president and general manager of
the Dallas Cowboys, died at his home on
Tuesday. Schramm spent 29 seasons with the
Cowboys and made major contributions to the
development of professional football.

Born - June 2, 1920, in San Gabriel, Calif.
Education - B.A. in journalism, University of
Texas
Career - Sportswriter, Austin AmericanStatesman, 1947; worked for L.A. Rams as
publicity director, then general manager, 194756; sports executive with CBS, '57-'59; Cowboys'
president and general manager, '60-'89
Accomplishments - 1991 Pro Football Hall of
Fame inductee; coordinated AFL-NFL merger,
1966; two Super Bowl titles; five Conference
Championships; 13 Division titles

An eagle at No. 14 helped
him salvage a round of 72 for
a 213 total.
But the best shot of the day
was Garcia's at the 17th. After

thick rough along the left side,
he needed two shots just to
advance it to the fairway.
From about 50 yards away, he
chipped the ball into the hole.
"That's maybe the best par

Garcia said.
No one was more unfortunate than Roe, who would

Instead, he was disqualified

Parnevik's 81 was on Roe's
card - and Roe's score was
on the Swede's card.

"How stupid is that?"
Parnevik said. "We checked

Home is where the hurt is

Fans.feel for ·
Griffey; some say
it's time to retire

Associated Press
CINCINNATI- As an entire city went
gidd~, Ken Griffey Jr. sli(lped on a
Cincmnati Reds' cap and explained why he
had come home. ·
"I•'s where you'll be happy, and
Cincinnati is the place I thought I'd be
happy," Griffey srud, a few hours after the
,. Reds got him from Seattle ln a 4-for-l
trade in February 2000.
On that· evening full of promise, the allcentury outfielder was convinced things
would work out in his hometown. After all,
he had grown up with the Big Red
Machine, darting through famous players
in the clubhouse.
His father was a star on those title teams.
His family was still in town. Fans were in
lov~ with the idea that he passed up millions of dollars to make the move. It
seemed a perfect place to finish a Hall of
Fame career.
Instead of happiness, he's found horror.
Griffey is out for the season after tearing
a tendon in his right ankle, his sixth major
injury. during his four years in Cincinnati.
Fans wish the Reds could trade a 33-yearold player who has been little more than a
stram on the payroll for four years. .
They've hardly known the Junior who
wore his cap backward and seemed ready
to topple the record books on the West
Coast.
'They've seen him on TV when he was
in Seattle," said shortstop Barry Larkin, his
closest friend on the team. "Ever since he
was here, it's been one thing after another.
"I know the people here are disappointed in the fact that he's injured and he's
unable to do some of the things he's capable of doing. The fans are frustrated, and I
know the organization is frustrated. He's
doing what he can."
Fans got a brief glimpse of it his first season, when he hit 40 homers and drove in
118 runs. They also got a glimpse of what
was to come - he tore a hamstring near
the end of the season.
It was the stan of a mind-numbing series
of injuries for a pla~er who was a mainstay
in the lineup dunng his 11 seasons at
Seattle. The next spring training, he tore
the hamstring again while rounding a base.
It was the same in 2002, when he tore a
tendon in his knee during the first week of
the season and later tore his other hamstring. This Y.ear, he dislocated his ri~ht
shoulder whtle trying to make a divmg
catch in the first week. After a 5 1/2-week
layoff, he returned and tore a tendon in his
right ankle, sending him back to surgery on
Friday.
It always seems to be something.
"He's older than he was when he was at
his superstar height," said Dr. TimothX
Kremchek, who operated on Griffey. ' I
think with every athlete that's played on
turf and has a pounding day to day, we see
the muscles break down.
"But I think a lot of it is bad luck. I think
there's a lot of bad luck involved."
At first, the club thought Griffey merely
needed to intensify his offseason workouts,
paying closer attention to keeping his legs
strong . He did that, and has still gotten hurt
in strange ways.
·
Few athletes fall so far, so fast.
"It's like with Grant Hill or Albert
Belle," general manager Jim Bowden said.
"There are some things in this grune you
just can' t control. Injuries are one of

!'

them.'!

Cincinnati Reds for the
ninth straight time, 9-8 on

CINCINNATI
Cincinnati
Reds fans
expressed sympathy for
Ken Griffey Jr. a day after
yet another season-ending
mjury while others suggested Friday that he retire.
Many fans on city streets
were more charitable than
people who often call local
talk radio to rip Griffey
because of hi s injuries or
those who booed him
Thursday night and in April
when he dislocated hi s
shoulder.
"He 's j usl got a stream of
bad luck," said Harry
Wolke, 60, of Hamilton,
while munching a doughnut
on a bench on Fourth
Street. "He's been under a
lot of peer pressure from his
team.mates, from the fans."
Griffey ruptured a tendon
in hi s right foot while he
ran out a double in
Thursday 's · game against
the Houston Astros.
Marcus Powell , a 41 year-old Cincinnati con struction woTker, said
Griffey's career is essentially over and he should quit.
"One man can't do it all,"
Powell said. "He ain't no
Pete Rose."
Some suggested Grift'ey's
luck ran out when he came
to Cincinnati from Seattle
in 2000- another example
of what superstitiou s Reds
fans view as a recent string
of bad luck for the city 's
sports teams.
The Bengals haven't had
a winning team in 12 seasons and the Reds haven 't
made the playoffs since

Cincinnati Reds' Ken Griffey, Jr., left, holds his leg at second base after he hit a double off Houston Astros' pitcher Jeriome Robertson in the sixth inning Thursday. The
outfielder injured a tendon and 1s out for the·season. (APJ
Griffey has staned an average of only 82
games a season in Cincinnati. Afler those
40 homers in his frrst season back home,
Griffey has hit a total of 43 in the last
.three.
Even when he played, he was usually
only a faint impression of the old Junior.
He oflen held back when he mn, trying to
prevent another leg injury. His swing was
out of whack because of all of the time on
the disabled list and the lingering effects of
his latest injury.
It sapped him of what made him special.
"Injuries do change us as players," said
Larkin, who also has struggled with muscle injuries the last few years. "It affects
our mind-set, what we're doing and how
we try to protect ourselves. I don't think
anyone's the same player tha~ they were
before the injury."
Griffey was batting .247 with 13 homers
and 26 RBis in 53 games before he was
injured.
.
There's a growing unease that Griffey
may never be the same again. The Reds
tried to cut their losses in the offseason,
working out a deal with San Diego, but
Phil Nevin blocked it by invpking his notrade clause.
Now, they're probably stuck with him
for five more years - a huge drain on a
small-market budget. He'll get $12.5 million per year, with $6.5 million of that
deferred with interest until after he completes his $116.5 million deal .
It's not all about the money.
.
During his first three s~asons, the moody
outfielder developed a persona in hi s
hometown: the reserved superstar who
liked the trappings of celebrity but not
spotlight that carne with it.

He bristled at fans' criticism · and the
media's attention. He stewed when fonner
Reds players said his special treatment by
management disrupted the team chemistry
that carried the Reds to 96 victories the
year before he arrived.
Bowden's quiet attempt to trade him last
December left him ruftled. When Griftey
arrived for spring !mining, he said little to
reporters and was cool toward Bowden
and manager Bob Boone, who had tried to
persuade Nevin to accept the trade.
Then he started playmg like his days in
Seattle. running down fly balls with abandon and lashing line drives during spring
tmining games. He also seemed to give up
his grudges.
Teammates sensed a change.
"This year in spring training, I t'elt he
was finally comfortable with being in
Cincinnati and finally comfortable with
this organization and this team," tirst baseman Sean Casey said. "I think Griff just
felt this was a good fit for him.
. "I know people get on Griff, but there's
nobody more frustrated about what's happened these past few years than him. He's
played so many years injury-free, and now
he's had these injuries."
He got jeered from the stands when he
dislocated his shoulder while trying to
make a diving catch at Great Amencan
Ball Park on April 5. He got booed when
he limped off the field Thursda~ night after
completely ·tearing a tendon m his right
ankle while running the bases.
.
Some fans feel sympathy. others enmity.
All agree that Griffey's homecoming has
been one remarkable disappointment.
"Maybe he's cursed by Cincinnati," said
contractor Bob Duenne.

Wagner makes
rapid rise to
m·aJ·ors for Re·ds

Reds
rally falls
short

i

CINCINNATI (AP) - It
took just over a month for
Ryan Wagner to make the
jump from college to the big
leagues.
.
The hard-throwing righthander, the Reds' No. 1 pick
out of the University of
Houston in last month 's
draft, arrived in Cincinnati
on Saturday. Wagner will fill
the bullpen spot of right-hander Scott 'Sullivan, who was
placed on the 15-day disabled list with tendinitis in
his right shoulder.
Wagner, the 14th overall
pick, threw just nine minor
league innings before the
Reds purchased his contract
from Triple-A Louisville.
"They told me I might get
up there quickly, but after
just nine innings in the
minors, you're not expecting
that," Wagner said Saturday
before the Reds played the
Houston Astros - the team
he followed while growing
up in Texas ..
The Reds cleared a spot on
their 40-rnan roster for him
by placing center fielder Ken
Griffey Jr. on the 60-day disabled list.
Wagner is the ftrst player
.from this year's draft to
reach the majors. After signing for a '$1.4 million bonus,
he made five one-inning
appearances for Double-A

Chattanooga and four more
with Louisv ille. He was a
combined 1-1 with a 2.00
ERA.
Wagner, who turned 21 on
Tuesday, used, a fastball that
hits 94 mph and a wicked
si nker to become one of college baseball 's most prolific
strikeout artists. He set a.
Division I record last season
by averaging 16.8 strikeouts
pt;r nine innings and broke
the Cougars mark with 15
saves last season ·as a sophomore.
Wagner ne~rly maintained
that pace in his brief stint in
the minors, striking out I0
while walking just two in
nine innings.
"He
was
throwing
extremely well," said Reds
manager Bob Boone, who
plans to limit Wagner to
appearances of one inning or
less. "We're not going to use
him in closing situations."
Wagner is the first player
in team history to reach the
majors in the same season he
was drafted. He will be the
youngest Reds pitcher to
make his debut since leftbander Rosario Rodriguez at
20 years and 55 days in•
1989. He will be the
youngest Reds right-hander
since Manny Sarmiento
made hi s debut at 20 years
and 79 days in 1976.

1995. Cincinnati sports fans
also perceive that the Reds
trade good players who
then become great, such as
Paul O'Neill, who went on
to be a five-time All Star
with the New York
Yankees.
Or the teams cultivate or
trade for talent only to face
injuries or dimini shed
skills. Griffey is the prime
example. This is hi s fifth
major injury in the threeplus seasons he's played for
the Reds.
Bob Duennc, of Harrison,
Si!id Griffey 's problems
were ' similar to those of
Bengals running back lckey
Woods, who played a key
role in leading the team to
the Super Bowl in 1988
only to suffer career-ending
injuries later.
Wolke recommended that
teams pay players by the
game and based on their
daily performance. Griffey
is the highest paid player in
Reds hi story.
"You work a day 's work,
you get a day 's wage,"
Wolke said .
Greg Koch, who owns a
downtown sporting apparel
store, compared Griffey to
former Red s player Eric
Davis. The outfielder
helped lead the Reds to .
the1r 1990 World Series
sweep of Oakland, but suffered a lacerated kidney
while making a sliding
catch in the Series' final
game.
"l frequently liken guys
like Dav1s and Griffey 19 a

you get a high-powered
machine like that, it's more
susceptible to
breakdowns."

AX-3 DOMAINES, France - A weary
Lanc.e Armstrong clung to a diminishing
lead_m the Tour de France as a surging Jan
. Ullnch powered away from him during
Saturday's final punishing cliiJ)b.
For the first tirne"since Armstrong won
· the first of his four consecutive titles in
1999, the Tour was entering its final week
too close to call.
Ullrich, looking almost fresh while
Armstrong appeared gaunt and exhausted, is second overall and only 15 seconds
behmd the Texan . The German had trailed
by 34 seconds entering the 13th stage.
"This was a very difficult effort," said
Armstrong, who was fourth in the stage ..
Ullrich, the 1997 winner, was second in
the stage and said his next goal is to seize
the overall lead.
"I'm going to try to take the yellow jersey tomorrow," he said through a translator on French TV. "I'll see how I feel, and
if all goes well, I'll do the maximum ."
Spain 's Carlos Sastre won Saturday's
122.5-mile race from Toulouse to the ski
resort of Ax-3 Domaines. The ride featured a 9.4-mile climb over a pass called
Port de Pailheres, towering at 6,603 feet
above sea level.
Sastre, of the CSC team, stuck. a baby's
pacifier in his mouth as he finished in
tribute to daughter Claudia, who turns 2
. next month.
Ullrich was 61 seconds behind Sastre,
who was timed in 5 hours, 16 minutes, 8
seconds. Spain's Haimar Zubeldia was
third, I :03 behind. Armstrong was next,
I :08 back . .
Ullrich drew away from Armstrong in
the last 5.6-mile climb to Ax-3 Domaines.
His second-place fini sh in the stage
resulted in a bonus of 12 seconds in the
overall standings.
Despite his lackluster ride, Armstrong
gained 10 seconds on Alexandre
Vinokourov. The Kazak fini shed the stage
in fifth place, falling 61 seconds behind
the Texan in the overall standings.
''I' rn
not
very
disappointed,"
Armstrong said.
But he added that Ullrich "looks to be
riding great, better and better every day."
"I'm just going to ride my rhythm and
not let him get too far," Ann strong added.
Weakened by the persistent heat,
Armstrong had difficulty recuperating
from Friday's demanding time trial in
which Ullrich prevailed. He had doubts
about his ability to dominate Saturday.
"I didn't expect to have super legs yesterday was too hard. It was a really difficult effort,'' Armstrong said. "To recuperate ... is not possible in 24 hours, or 20
hours."
"At the start ... I thought, 'Uh-oh' it's
going to be a bad day, but there are two
more days left in the Pyrenees, and I still
have a lot of chances," he said.
Ullrich is said to be battling a stomach
problem, although he appears at the top of
his game. He was 96 seconds ahead of
second-placed Armstrong in the time trial,
setting up a tense four days in the
Pyrenees. Saturday ·was the' first stage in
the mountaiu s separating Spain and
France.
"One of the two will crack," French
rider Richard Virenque predicted.
~ "There ' s going to be destruction in the
days to come. It 's going to be spectacu1ar. "
Armstrong has been trying to assert
himself in his attempt to equal Spanish
rider Miguel lndurain 's record of live successive Tour wins. His chance to stamp
his authority on the three-week race could
come Sunday when forecasts of rain in
the Pyrenees may provide some cool.
Armstrong finds himself in the unusual
position of having only a slender lead
with seven days of racing to go. .
.
At "other years at this point, no, I was
lucky enough to have three or four or fi vc
minutes" advantage over competitors, he
said .

..: SOURCE: Associated Press

After the hood of a car
sailed into the grandstand.
many in NASCAR began to
wonder if damaged vehicles
should be allowed to keep racing.
Winston Cup director John
Darby has heard the talk
cause(,l by Robby Gordon's
crash on July 5 at Daytona,
and says everything is being
done to keep battered cars
from becoming a hazard to
fans and other drivers.
But the sanctioning body
doesn't want to force cars off
the track, denying th em a
chance to pile up points that
result in bonus payments at
the end of each season.
"The teams are told that if
they're involved in an incident, they get one opportunity
to come back to compete in
the race," Darby explained.
"In that one opportumty they
have to maintain a minimum
speed."
At Daytona that would be
about 175 mph while healthy
cars are doing 190.
No one likes to watch cars
limp around the track, but
with NASCAR scoring all 43
positions in each of 36 races
that practice won't change.
"It's frustrating, but I've
done it many times," said former Winston Cup champion
Bobby Labonte. "I'm out
there riding along thinking,
' Hey, if you go eight more
laps you ' ll pick up . another
position.'
"Everything's falling apart,
but you're trying to get that
extra position because you
know it's worth something at
the end of the year."
Few realize that more than
four-time series champion Jeff
Gordon, who won his first title
by 34 points in 1995. lost by
37 the next season and won by
14 in 1997.
"You feel like you have to
be out there because the way
the rules and point system is
right now," he said. "Those
three points or five points that
you might gain could make
the difference."
The IRL also scores all the
cars, but CART awards points
for only the top 12 finishers
and Formula One for only the
top eight.
The practice of racing with
damaged equipment is as old
as NASCAR itself - more
than a half-century - but is
driven more in this era by the
emphasis on money.
"The points were created
that way because they needed
cars out there on the track,"
Gordon said. "Now we've got
very few guys that are having
problems staying out !here."
But Darby insi sts that a

Bill Elliott (9), continues to race Christian Rttipaldi (43) despite sustaining extensive damage
in a earlier crash at the Tropicana 400 on July 13. (AP)
dama~ed car can't maintain
the mmimum speed unless the
suspension, chassis and aerodynamics are not.too far off.
'The teams know that a
quick fix or a patch job, 99
times out of I00, will not be
adequate to put the car back
on the racetrack and stay within the guidelines of that
speed," he said.
Darby said the biggest problem is what isn't visible to
NASCAR inspec tors who
examine the cars.
"Nine times out of 10, if
something fails on the car after
it's been involved in the incident, it's the unseen thing that
failed," he said. "Obviously, if
the tire's tlat you're going to
replace it. lf it's got a slow
leak, you might not know it."
In the case of Robby
Gordon, it was a failure of the
tether attachin~ the hood to the
frame of his Rtchard Childress
Racing Chevrolet. A woman
was slightly injured by the flying hood, and NASCAR
responded with a rule that set a
minimum size for the bolts

attached to either end of the
tether.
"We did a tremendous
amount of testing last week
and made our first reaction to
it," Darby said. "And we may
not be done with that process."
Seven-time Win ston Cup
champion Richard Petty, now
a team owner, said that potential problems created by a
·quick fix have worried him for
years.
· " It's dangerous for the peapie; it 's dangerous for the guys
m a hurry trying to get the car
back out there.'' he said.
Petty. who won a record 200
times, acknowledges he often
raced in damaged cars. He
says crew members usually do
a good job to make sure the car
can continue to meet the minimum speed requirement and
stay together for the rest of the
race.
Still , he ·d like ·to see
NASCAR come up with a way
to limit who can return to the
track and who can't.
Perhaps it should be, "''OK,
you've got 10 minutes to get

IN THE OPEN

Fish kills are natural
occurrences, and are
not uncommon especially during the
dog days of July and
August, and even up
into early September.

Resources.

Wildlife
monitored
a
late
summer/early fall fishkill on Leading
Creek that occurred in a low.-gradient
portion of the creek with very little
flow.
That fishkill was blamed on low
flow coupled with decaying leaf
debris and low groundwater levels
from the 1999 drought.
The key to avoiding fi s h kills lies in
knowing what causes them, so for
beginners try to limit the amount of
nutrients (fertilizer, manure, grass
clippings, etc.) getting into your
pond. Anything that puts organic
material into your pond may possibly
contribute to summerkill.
Septic tank leach fields are a common culprit in fish kills as are chemical treatments of algae or aquatic
weeds that result in decay. It's not the
chemical that kills the fish, but the
resulting lack of oxygen created by
decomposing plant .matter. Simply
feeding your fish, or having too many
fish, can contribute to a summerki!L
There is a wide variety of aerators
available to help add dissolved oxygen to your pond : circulators, fauntains, compressed · air injectors, paddie wheels and windmills to name a
few. The compressed air injectors ,
featuring bottom-based aerators,
seem to be most effective at increasing the amount of di ssolved oll:ygen
h
·
d h f h
throug out the enttre · ept 0 t e
pond .
They also help break down organic
debris at the bottom of the pond.
Fountain or surface aerators may
make a pretty display, but general!~
only oxygenate the surface layer. On
the other hand, they are useful in
emergency situations, giving fish an
area to seek refuge.
The windmill aerators are pretty
much useles s in our part of the country; there usually isn' t enough of a
breeze to power them during the early
morning hours when the need for
oxygen is greatest.
Remember that ponds are manmade creations, not naturally occurring in our part of the state, and that
the fix will 'most likely have to be
man-made, too.

Eventually there is just a thin layer of
oxygenated water near the surface of
the pond with the bulk of the pond's
water having no oxygen . At this time,
with no apparent warning signs, your
fish are in serious danger of suecombing to summerkill.
The two layers mill: as a result of
storms, strong winds, or change of
season, and that. thin layer upper layer
described above gets diluted to the
point it cannot support life. This is
the "turnover." The first sign of trouble is that you may see your fish coming to the surface attempting to
breathe. Next you'll start to see your
bigger fish (because they require
more oxygen) going belly up.
Most summerkills occur at night
just before dawn, when there is no
light for plants to produce oxygen
and· the pond's demand for oxygen is
high. The pond owner may be greeted
in the morning by dead and dying
fish .
Sometimes the pond has a filmy,
soapy appearance which may make
the pond owner believe his fish were
somehow poisoned. The pond may
smell stagnant. Even testing the pond
for dissolved oxygen may not conclusively determine what killed the fish;
(Jim Freeman is wildlife specialist
by the time the water is tested later in
the morning, the dissolved oxygen for the Meigs Soil and Water
level may very well have risen out of Conservation District. He can be

It's getting to be that time of year
when pond owners occasionally
experience die-offs of their fish; as a
result it's also the time of year I get
phone calls from panicked pond owners convinced somebody or something poisoned their pond.
First thing, don't panic . While a
,fish kill is certainly a cause for dismay, it's not a cause for major alarm . .
Fish "kills are natural occurrences, and
are not uncommon - especially during the dog day s ~f July and August,
and even up into early September.
Most fish kills can be attributed to
one of three major causes: fish suffocation due to lack of oxygen, poisoning , or disease outbreak. In most
instances it is suffocation due to lack
of oxygen that is the culprit.
· · There are two types of pond fish
,kills related to suffocation: sumtnerkill and winterkill. Obviously one
occurs in the winter and the other
happens in the summer. Since winters
in our part of the state are generally
not severe enough to cause winterkill,
this column will primarily deal with
summerkill.
Summerkill is most common in
shallow ponds that are highly vegetated and have high accumulations of
decomposing organic matter. There
are several events that can trigger
·s ummerkill: cloudy, hot and still days
in the heat of summer; large-scale
die-offs of microscopic plants or p,hytoplankton; sudden thermal turnover
or inversions caused . by dramatic
weather changes; chemical treatment
of algae or aquatic weeks that result
in excessive decay.
Summerkills
are
sometimes
referred to as pond "turnover."
The summerkill process works like
this:
In summer, the water stratifies into
llyers. The bottom layer has no oxygen, and water circulates only within
layers. Picture your pond as being
two ponds: one stacked on top of the
other, not mixing, with the bottom
pond comprised of water with little or
· no dissolved oxygen. The fish all live
in the top layer.
If you've ever been swimming in a
pond, you can distinctly iell where
:She bottom layer begins . It's that cold
J pot you run into a few feet below the
'!lurface.
• As summer progresses, hot, windl ess days increase the size of the bot:tom layer, which has no oxygen.

Customers used to ride
municipal buses from the
·inner city to the shop a block
from the Maumee River,
stock up for a day of fishing
from the banks of the
Maumee, then take the bus
home.
Tackle sales declined with
the rise of the large discount
stores. When a new ballpark
came to the downtown a
couple · of years ago and
Superior Bait lost its storefront, there was not enough
business left to move else- ·
where.
"When these traditional
old bait shops close, the
most significant loss is probably not the live baits they
always provided, its the loss
of information and expertise," Snyder said. "Its part
of the nature of fishing that
there is a lot of swappingof
ideas and information; and
so much of that went on
right there in the shop."
At Maumee Valley Bait &amp;
Tackle, a couple of blocks
from the river, owner Gary
Lowry and his wife, Janice,
have had to be diversified
and creative to survive over
tlie long haul.
"Were in our 13th year,
and we started this bait shop
from scratch we didnt
take over someone elses
operation - and it hasn t
been easy at all. It was five
years before we kriew
wh11ther we could survive,
or not," Lowry said.
"I think the personal touch
keeps our customers coming
back. My wife and I are both .
fishermen, so we can tell
them the where, how and
what to use. We keep it sil)'l,
pie, stock only tackle that
works, and we put in 90 to
II 0 hours a week when were
busy. If you didnt love it,
you could never do it."

Stonewall Resort finally gets hiking trails
BY JOHN McCoY
For the Associated Press

ROANOKE, W.Va. -1,'\nother
piece of the recreational puzzle
has been put in place at Stonewall
Res&lt;Jrt.
Two new recreational trails,
built by Americorps volunteers,
are now open tQ the public. The
3.5-mile Hevener Orchard Trail
and the 2-mile Autumn Laurel
Brook Trail were completed in
early June and have been ·attracting hikers ever since.
"These trails really have fulfilled a pressing need," says park
superintendent Sam England.
'The only trail we had prior to
this was the path to our overlook,
and it was only half a mile long."
For all the money that has been
poured into the park since its
1989 opening, both by the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers and by

the private developers that transformed it into an upscale resort,
facilities for hikers and mountain
bikers never entered into the formula.
Until now, that is.
England says park visitors routinely asked where the hiking
trails were, and were routinely
disappointed when they were told
that .there were none.
"I'd wanted to get some trail
construction started, but never
seemed to have the time to get the
job done," he says. "Fortunately, I
got an assistant superintendent
who was able to take the job and
run with it."
Assistant superintendent Joe
Sizemore
collaborated
with
England on the trails' basic rout·
ing,
then
called
in
the
International Mountain Biking
Association's Trail Care crew to
fine-tune the plan.
. "They recommended .some

modifications and put on a trailbuilding seminar for us," England .
says. "They're very knowledgeable people , and they have a topnotch program .that really helped
us out."
To do the grunt work, Sizemore
enlisted the help of Americorps
volunteers. A 12-person crew
worked from October through
December of last year, and a I 0member crew finished the job
between April and June.
"Our only costs were the purchase of the necessary tools and
room and board for the crews,"
England says. "The tools and
materials totaled about $1,100.
The resort put the crews up, two
to a room, and fed them in the
lodge's dining room.
"The crews thought they" d died
and gone to heaven . l(sually, trail
crews live in tents and eat boxed
lunches. I'm not sure what the
cost of putting them up at the

lodge was, but it sure paid off in
terms of crew morale ."
England estimates that it would
have cost $20,000 to $30,000 to
hire a .Professional trail-huildipg
crew to come in and do the work.
"We got a great product, and we
got it without much cost," he
says.
Of the two new trails, the
Hevener Orchard Trail is the
crown jewel. It rises from an
intersection near the park's
entrance, tops out Qn a ridge and
winds around the resort's new IShole golf.course.
"There's some history associated with that trail," England says.
"It's named for the family that
lived on the property near where
the golf course now sits. The
orchard dates back to 1898, and
remained in operation until just
before the park was established.
"A variety of apple, the West
Virginia Red York, was developed

Sunday, July 20, 2003

here. In fact, it received the firsi
patent for a fruit developed in
West Virginia. The Golden
Delicious was also developed in
West Virginia, but it was taken
outside the state's borders to be
developed and patented."
The trail also passes through a
series of dry.-fit stone walls that
·existed befor~ the Heveners pur,
chased their farm.
England says they probably
were used to control cattle thai
were pastured along the ridge top:
"They definitely add interest to
the trail," he says.
England says the trails have
become quite popular with the
resort's guests.
"Ever since the lodge opened,
there's been a great' demand for
hiking and biking," he says. "In
fact, the No. 1 activity for
overnight guests is hiking. Now
we have something to offer people
who are interested in that."

Editor sees 25 years of change
Mediterranean influences
·
flavor Santa Barbara cuisine and wide choice in food ·
•

Santa Barbara, Calif., has
often been thought of as a
kind of American Riviera;
with its balmy year-round
Mediterranean climate, blue
sea and red-tile roofed villas.
In the same vein are nearby
acres of lemon, avocado and
olive orchards, and vineyards. Which naturally leads
to the subject of food.
The regional bounty of
appetizing ingredients seems
to have inspired a crop of
savvy chefs, and there's a
lively interest in good cookmg. especially given the
availability of fresh fish from
the Pacific - think spot
prawns and spiny lobsters.
Here are a couple of summery recipes ,offered by local
chefs, adapted for the home
cook to give your menus an
American Riviera touch. Look
for fresh ingredients in your
own markets as near the origi~
nal s as can be found. One of
the cool-climate Santa Barbara
wines would make a nice
accompaniment to the meal.
Spinach and Grapefruit Salad would hold its own well as an
accompaniment to robust grilled dishes, adding a refreshing
tang. The familiar spinach-bacon base gets a citrus lift from
the juicy addition of grapefruit. (APJ

NEW YORK (AP) Marking a quarter century of
working at Bon Appetit
magazine, editor in chief
Barbara Fairchild is emphatic about the momentous
changes she's witnessed in
the way Americans eat and
cook. But she names Julia
Child as a constant star in
the culinary firmament.
In conversation, Fairchild
sounds as if she's not only
registered this change, she's
relished it and the freedom
of choice it's given us.
Her observations spin out
in energetic order, and when
she talks of chari~e, it
sounds as if revolution is
often a more precise word
than evolution. ·
"For me, I think, in the last
25 years, there have been
three things happening
simultaneously that have, in
my mind, changed food for
Americans forever," she says
in a phone interview during a
recent visit to New York.
She enumerates her main
points: "'There's the education ·
of the public about food and
cooking. the rise of the chefrestaurateur, and the supermarket revolution." They all feed
off each other, she points out,
using a nice rum of phrase.
Information exchanges resulted from, and led to, travel;
restaurants and food markets
responded to fmding people
. more adventurous.
Take the food shopping
expenepce: "To walk mto a
supermarket today versus
1978 is to walk into a totally
different world - there are
more herbs, more spices,
more ethnic foods, more
varied produce," she says.
A subset to that, Fairchild
adds, is the growth of farmers' markets and artisanal
foods. With that availability
of good ingredients, she
says, "Everybody knows
'fresh and simple' is best."
A lot of what everybody
knows comes from food
magazines, which do a better job of conveying information no\v, she thinks .
Fairchild joined the .Los
Angeles-based Bon Appetit
in 1978 as an editorial assistant, rose through the ranks,
served for 15 years as executive editQr, then became
editor in chief in 2000.
Fairchild lives and works in
both Los Angeles and New
York, travels widely and exerts

that type of equipment."
People's knowledge of different cuisines grew as they
traveled during this period,
going out beyond the cities ·
into the countrysides, sampling regional cooking
styles, Fairchild says.
Magazines played a role
here, as writers dined out and
traveled and brought details
back to American readers.
"It's interesting that
everyone knows about Thai
imd Asian food , just as we
know more about 'Italian'
food - now we know the
difference between dishes
that come out of Tuscany or
Milan, the
difference
between north and south."
Chefs, too, as they adopted
more
high-profile
careers, traveled and wrote
cookbooks, she says. That
filtered into television .
"Even before the food
shows, you began to see little segments about cooking
on news and other shows."
The connections spread.
Supermarkets started to
respond to consumers. "We
bought a wok because we
watched a TV show on
Chinese cooking - so we
go the market and ask, 'Can
you get bok choy for us?" '
Fairchild says. Another subset of . shopping is the
Internet, whieh brings the
market to people.
.
Fairchild notices a new
generation growing up with
this variety. Small children
in the supermarkets ride
along in the carts with mothers who are buying wonton,
Mexican foods and other
ethnic items. And Fairchild's
twin nephews. 8-year-olds.
"eat everything," she notices
- and want to go out for
sushi or Mexican instead of,
burgers or pizza.
"I think the one word that
sums up the entire pleasure
we have in food is choice,"
she says. "When you want to
eat, you can go out and find
what you want at a restaurant, or you can go to the
supermarket and buy items
to cook yourself, or you can
find some of the stuff readymade for the basis of putting
together a meal."
There's another constant
about food, she says in
blithe summary: "The one
thing that hasn't changed is
that 1l has to taste good!"

considerable influence in the
food world -. from judging
awards for the James Beard
Foundation, to working · with
the Careers Through Culinary
Arts Programs for young people. The Beard Foundation has
mducted ber into its "Who's
Who in American Food and
Beverage."
The rise of the chef as
celebrity has been·fueled by
television, most visibly now
by the Food Network. Back
in 1978 there was the pioneer, Julia Child, already in
reruns, Fairchild points out.
"Julia - for me she has
be_en the constant, the premier presence on the
American food scene. She
started in Boston around
1961 , and in 2003 she's still
here with us, telling us what
is good," Fairchild said.
Her generosity is remarkable, she adds, paying tribute
to Child's unstmting service
to the cause of good fo()(j.
Another major aspect of
the change in food ways:
The surge in culinary education has transformed the
workplace of the American
and
consumer,
cook
Fairchild says.
"There has been the complete remodeling of the
home kitchen: new gadgets,
new appliances and the rise
of the ~rofessionallook."
The Ideal now is that your
kitchen should look like a
restaurant's, partly reflecting
.the intense interest in cooking increasingly shown by
men. "They're not just interested in the backyard barbecue any more, they 're cookmg more generally, and a
robust stove is part of that
interest," Fairchild thinks.
Women, too, were going
off to cooking classes or
cooking schools and seeing
professiOnal-type equipment
there. "It became a status
symbol to have it in your
home kitchen," Fairchild
says. The appliances women
saw in class have now been
for
the
re-engineered
domestic setting.
Fairchild recalls her ·own
experience. "I remember
when I first started at Bon
Appetit in 1978, going to
cooking classes g1 ven by
Wolfgang Puck at Ma
Maison. In a section of the
restaurant kitchen I saw all
that for the first time, and I
thought it was just fantastic,

'\,.
At school, some of us
looked the part of the majority student-body; fair-skinned,
hght-hatred, pug-nosed families of Protestant and Catholic
church-goers. They were the
lucky ones. By day, they
could easily assimilate into
the schoolhouse family. The
rest of u.s; dark, kinky-haired,
ohve-skmned camel jockeys
chinks, spies and dagos were;
well, left to our own devices.
At least the "chinks" had high
test scores. There . was one
lone black kid in all of our
elementary school. He could
not run. He could not hide.
Everybody knew where he
lived. Luckily for Freddy, he
was a cute and funny kid; like
an underage Chris Rock.
Although these parents of
the bilingual kids in the h.ood
came from a melange of
countries, they shared an
uncanny body of mannerisms
and philosophy in direct contradiction to the American
way. For many of us; this
was the kiss of death. The
elementary · years
were
. fraught with worries of ·
whether the school-day
would bring another round of
name-calling and physical
threats. Middle school was
horrendous for many of ps
who didn't fit the stereotypical Barbie doll image. High
school was a bit better.
Mostly, the g1.1ys just ignored
us. It made for better study
habits. Alas, college was a
place where kids from all
walks of life could meet and
learn about one's family culture, if one so chose.
As the nineties approached.
the field of multicultural programming spawned a prosperous industry of children's
books to help teachers, librarians, and parents pave a new
path for social behavior - an
open-mindedness toward cultural diversity. This is more
readily accomplished for
those who live m communities where people · speak
freely in thetr native languages and commune with
American-born neighbors,
sharing their cultures with
one another. At that point,
who cares that the immigrant's English does not
sound like "our" English.

GEORGETOWN, Ky. (AP)
-The first of the second-generation Camry Solaras rolled
off the assembly line Monday
as company officials touted
the car as the most American
of any Toyota to date. .
Under a banner that read
"The All-American Solara"
and with the Neil Diamond
song "America" playing in
tile background, a red Solara
-·. with a red, white and blue
b.ow on top - was unveiled
during a ceremony at Toyota
Motor ·
Manufacturing
Kentucky, where the car will
be exclusively built. Plans
are to build about 30,000
Solaras through the end of
2003, with production of
64,000 cars planned for 2004.
The car isn't technically
100 percent American - it's
built on a Camry platform,
which means Japan-based
Toyota is responsible for the
engine, transmission and
drive train, said Gary Con vis,
president of Toyota's plant at
Georgetown, which employs
more than 7,000 people.
But from planning to design
to engineering to as~mbly,
all phases of the Solara s production have been done in the
United States.
"Toyota has got platform
responsibility," Convis said.
"But to customize that to the
beauty of what we think will
attract the American consumer, we take responsibility
in North America to design it,
build it and sell it."
All previous Toyota products have been designed in
Japan, said Wil James, the
vice president of manufactur. ing at the Georgetown plant.
But Toyota wanted to see
just how independent its
North American branch could
be, Convis said. The idea is
siml!le, he said - those in
the 'United States are more
familiar with what works in
the U.S. car market.

RICHMONI.' , Texas (AP)
It could be a match made
in the heavens, if the orbiting groom doesn't get cold
feet.
Russian cosmonaut Yuri
Malenchenko, now on a
mission at the international
space station, had made
plans to wed next month in
the first -ever mamage from
space. His bride , Ekaterina
Dmitriev, would remam
firmly on Earth.
.
Plans for the nuptials were
up in the air Friday, as
reports out of Russia were
that Malenchenko had called
off the wedding via satellite.
Dmitriev's wedding planner, Joanne Woodward, told
The Associated Press Friday
that Malenchenko had initially been upset by the media
attention about thetr nupttals,
but the wedding would still
take place Aug. I0.
.
The Russian news agency
!TAR-Tass quoted Sergei
Gorbunov. a spokesman for
the
space
agency
Rosaviakosmos, saying that
"Yuri himself phoned from
aboard the spacecraft and
said that he had decided to
retract this idea. "

Government investigates Ford air bags
WASHINGTON (AP) The federal government is
investigating reports that air
bags in Ford Taurus and
Mercury Sable sedans failed
to inflate during crashes,
according to documents
released Tuesday.
At the request of the
National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration, Ford
Motor Co. reported 260 complaints of frontal air bags failing to deploy on 2000 and

2001 model year Taurus and
Sable sedans.
Ford reported no injuries or
deaths from those complaints. But NHTSA's database revealed one fatal crash
in which frontal air bags
failed to deploy after the driver of a Ford Taurus lost control and hit a c&lt;;mcrete bridge
rail. The driver died, and a
passenger was injured.

Jones said the co-pilot

Romance
writers
conference
•
opens1n
New York
NEW YORK (AP) There are workshops on plot
development and characterization, meetin~s with publishers and edttors. And, of
course, there are tips on sexy
love scenes.
After all, this is a meeting
of romance writers.
The Romance Writers of
America's 23rd annual conference
opened
on
Wednesday, bringing together
more than 2,000 published
authors, want-to-be-published
writers, editors and others
connected to a lucrative section of the fiction market.
Despite being a target of
derision and stereotypes over
the years, the romance genre
generates more than $1 billion in sales each year and
has a market share that practitioners of other genres envy.
"There are smart, savvy
women who write romance,
and smart, savvy women who
read romance, and we read it
because it is emotionally satisfying for us," said Gayle
Wilson, an author and RWA
board member.
According to figures from
the RWA, romance novels
made up more than one-third
of all fiction books sold
nationwide last year, and
more than half of all fiction
paperbacks sold. The growth
has been steady over recent
years, according to the RWA,
and the genre has produced
subcategories from historical
and mystery to paranormal
and inspirational.
"We're very specialized in
the t~pes of romance we
write, ' said Diana Palmer, a
· romance author who has been
writing for more than 20
years . "It's just ~ar- ~eaching
because women s tnterests
are far-reaching."
The conference, w,hich ends
Saturday, was to include a
book signing for charity by
500 authors. But the rest of the
meeting was given over to a
not-so-sexy part of publishing:
seminars on business issues
facing writers, sessions about
the industry, spotlights on particular publishing houses.
It also set up sessions about
the craft of writing research into settings, pacing,
plot twists, characterizations.
And there were topics specific to romance: the psychology of the alpha male hero,
that strong, charismatic man ·
who always gets the girl; the
elemj:nts of the strong heroine who can rescue herself
from danger.
·
And, of course, the "love
connection." Not just simple
attraction, but the deep connection between hero and
heroine that drives the conflict
and ultimately leads to the
"happy-ever-after" ending.
.The conference demonstrates romance writers' pro- fessio11alism, said Wilson,
and belies stereotypes about
its authors such . as "the
notion that we' re all frustrat ed housewives who don't
know about the real world."
Wilson said that while
romance is getting more
respect, there is still ridicule.

Small seeds·OK in
seedless watermelon
If you've been tempted by
the seedless variety of watermelon in the stores these
days, you may have noticed
that they aren't completely
without seeds. The little
white seeds most consumers find when
splitting open a watermelon are empty skins
from young seeds and
are soft and edible
making the seedless
less
watermelons
. messy to eat than their.
seeded·cousins. ·
The small, white
seeds are the work of
sCientists who have
developed a way to raise a
"mule' watermelon - fruit
that cannot reproduce. The
plants of seedless watermelon are pollinated and produce .
fruit, but the seeds inside the
watermelon are infertile.
Because the seeds are
infertile; the melon adapts.
The inner, red fruit is often
firmer than a seeded watermelon because it does not
soften to cushion developing
seeds. This usually results in
a-little longer shelf life.
The seedless watermelon's
seeds have three chromosomes, instead of the normal
two chromosomes. When the
chromosomes in the seeds
begin to split and multiply,
the· extra chromosome throws
the process off, Ieavins the
seeds infertile. So, while it
looks like a seed. it would not
grow if planted.
Scientists achieved the
seedless melon this way: The
seeds planted for seedless
watermelon are modified by
the chemical colchicine to

have four chromosomes.
These seeds are then pollinated by a normal seed with two
chromosomes. The resulting
fruit has seeds that receive
two chromosomes from one

parent and one chromosome
from another, hence three
chromosomes and infertility.
The
four-chromosome
seeds for seedless watermelon sometimes cost 20 times
the price of regular watermelon seed. They also have low
germination rates, which is
one of the biggest problems
for growers. But with the
right temperatures and growing conditions, seedless
watermelon can be successfully grown. harvested, and
delivered right to your
favorite supehnarket.
And thanks to those growers who are finding the right
conditions, consumers can
enjoy a fruit that is sweet on
the taste buds and easy on the
teeth.

Tired of waiting for hot water?
NEW MARKET, Va. (AP)
- Ask landscape designer
Nicole Kistler, of Seattle,
about the power of gardening
and she 'II tell you how it can
give new hope and purpose to
cancer patients and others
dealing with stress.
Rachel Tschida believes
healing gardens play a major
role in erasing the psychological scars from torture victims, particularly those coming to ·Minneapolis and St.
Paul for treatment.
Author Eva Shaw crusades
for what she calls "nature's
health plan" after seeing its
salutary effects on seriously ill
children, grieving families
and emotionally battered caregivers in the San Diego area.
Little wonder then, that
National . Garden Month ,
observed in April, has taken
"Celebrate the power of gardening" as this year's theme.
Aside from providing sustenance and beauty, gardens are
restorative - they can transfonn lives, says Valerie Kelsey, ·
president of the National
Gardening Association, organizer of the month-long event
. "You see it the most with
inner-city kids," Kelsey says.
"They can experience it by
growing a single strawberry.
It's forceful.
"You see it in prison gardeninl!. It's probably the first
time m their (inmates) lives
they've learned how to nurture something. It teaches
responsibility.
"Xou see it in community
gardens," she says. "There
you have some inter-genera·
tiona! things happening ; a
number of interactions taking
place: a sharing of tools, a
sharing of gardening ideas, a
sharing of cultures."

Kistler fonned most of her
impressions about horticultural healing several years
ago while a graduate student
at
the
University of
Washington. She wrote her
master's degree thesis around
the design methOfls used for
creating some rooftop gardens at the Cancer Lifeline
Center in Seattle.
"Patients were working with
students," she says. "They
were closely connected."
"The patients talked about
the relationship of struggle.
How their lives were out of
control. The students listened. That made the scene
organized and tangible lind
provided space everyone
could use later.
"Patients were able to
soothe their tensions. In the
end, man~ were able to tell
their stones. There was this
huge metaphor for healing.
They didn't know what they
were doing in many cases
(with the gardening), but they
overcame it."
Tschida, communications
director for The Center for
Victims of Torture, says its
Minneapolis ·healing garden
helps clients feel safe and
comfortable while sending a
message to a wider audience
in the Twin Cities area.
" It provides a means of
talking with the comtminity
about the unspeakable horrors of torture, which can be
pretty off-putting to outsiders," she says. "It's good
outreach, a way of bringing
new volunteers in. Tlleir first
access to the center can be
through gardening. Once

.

, they know something about
our work, they graduate from
the garden to working directly with our clients."
Shaw believes gardeners
have a responsibility for getting people back to the soil as a
means of coping with p~ssure.
"People grew Victory ·
Gardens during World War
II," says Shaw, the author of
more than 60 books about
managing grief and recovery.
"Our new gardens will be
Victory Gardens over stress."
Shaw says she has seen
how gardeninj! helps people
who are grievmg, especially
the elderly. "Getting into gardening doesn't take away any
of the pain, but it helps them
get through the pain faster."
Sanctuary gardens are
being designed around hospices, churches, schools and
Jails, among otherJlaces. The
catharsis provide by these
often vest-pocket sanctuaries
impact the healers as well as
the afflicted, Shaw says.
"As you know, many children who enter hos,pitals
never go home a~ain, she
says. "But their farmlies aren't
the only ones who grieve.
"Most of the staff at the
Children's Hospital and
Health Center-San Diego
tum to their therapy ~arden
for healing and solace. '
Kistler, the Seattle landscape architect, believes "any
space and every space can be
a healing place.
"It should be coordinated
into everything we design,"
she says. "It should be a part
of everyday life."
Kelsey puts it another way:

Way to Keep

The word "smoothie" likely conjures images of a vacation at the
beach. But smoothies don' t have to
remain a memory from the past grab one today. A great way to get
the recommended daily serving of
fruit, additives like nuts, yogurt or
spices give even more of a health
punch.
Why not make your own this
summer? The fun part of making a
smoothie yourself is that you can
modify recipes to please your taste
buds. If you c~n't eat dairy, use
dairy-free substitutes like dairyfree ice cream. Or, if you do1i'tlike
s1rawbcrries, you can try another
berry fruit.
It's hard for kids to resist the
delighls of a smoothie, so parents
can use it to "trick" them inlo gelling their vilamin s. Drinks boasting

chi ldren. Also , flavored sy rup s in
milk shakes are high in sugar so
· save them for special occasions.
With so many smoothie recipes,
you might be overwhelmed with
which to choose. For the besl taste
and nulrition, select a recipe that
uses fruit in season. The fruit
should be ripe and soft enough to
blend 10 a smooth texture. It's okay
if the fruit is slighlly overripe, but
avoid fruit that is past its prime. As
for peeling, -it's your call. Some
fruils like bananas or oranges you
will peel oul of habit but peeling
lhe ski n of fruits like peaches or
plums is up to you (though they
can make the drink less smooth).
Freezing fruit gives a frostier

Day in and day out, drilling

and Sunday's are no exception . Confederate chaplains in
General Robert E. Lee's Army
noted how empty the pews

said the chaplains asked Lee
to do something so that the
soldiers could get to church on
Sunday.
Lee told the chaplains, "I am
nothing but a .sinner saved by
God's grace," and issued a general order that stated there

POR1LAND - God made
an appearance in the aftennath
of the Battle of Buffington
when chaplain Ed Nutter gave
a sennon on the importance of
sacrifice to soldiers and civilian re-enactors on Sunday
morning at Portland Parle
After his sermon, Nutter
said God had an important
role in a soldier's life. Due to
the nature of war, Nutter said
soldiers were very familiar
with their own· mortality and
the importance of the afterlife ..
On both sides of the battlefield, a chaplain was assigned to
each regiment. The chaplain's

duties revolved around tending
to a re!liment's spiritual needs
which mcluded anything from
prayer to last rites. Nutter said
most sennons were not political
in nature. As a general rule, he
tries to refrain from the politics
of the anti-slavery movement or
preservation of the Union. But,
Nutter said this might be different in churches back east where
there mi~ht be fiery sennons
condemrung slavery, the Union
or the Confederacy.
"As a regimental chaplain, I

Nutter said many men carried a small Bible in their shirt

Also put a nonskid rug or mat on the floor next to the tiJb.
• Don't rely on bath rings to keep your baby afloat - your

PORTLAND - Prior to
the battle of Buffington
Island, both the Union and
Confederate forces wisely set
, up a field hospital to care for
the dying and wounded at
Portland Park. Don Dawson,
surgeon for the 17th Ohio,
said medical' care was a
rough business for wounded
soldiers.
During and after a battle,
scores of wounded men
would invade the field hospi- ·
tal hoping to live despite the
care provided. Dawson said
at the beginning of the war,
. leaches were still employed
to do a little blood letting.
'They still thought that by
getting rid of bad blood that it
would cure a person, but by
the war 's end this proved
false," he said.
When a soldier was hit
with a mini-ball, Dawson
said the bullet could tear
away a good chunk of flesh.
Timing was of the essence
and there none available for
rebuilding an arm or leg
severely damaged by a mini
baiL All that could be done
would be to remove the bullet
or shrapnel from the wound
and/or amputate.
" There were not enough
surgeons," Dawson said.
"The quickest way to save
the soldier was to amputate."
If chloroform was not
avai I able as anesthesia, a sol.dier might need to bite down
on some wood to endure the
pain of having his limbs
sawed away from his body.
Piles of arms, legs, hands and
feet could often be seen near
the field hospital. Dawson
said in some cases. these
piles would be several feet
taiL Periodically, an orderly
would be responsible for carrying thi s discarded flesh out
into a field and burying it.
