The demonstration Wednesday was organized by the United Mine Workers of America, which is trying to organize workers at an AEP coal mine at Cadiz in eastem .Ohio. The demonstrators said AEP fired experienced miners who supported the organi~ing effort while retaining younger, less-experienced employees who didn't appear to suppon the union.

Bob Taft to veto a House-passed construction bill if it gets Senate approval. They object to two collective bargainin~ provisions in the $1.27 bilhon state construction budget for schools, colleges and other projects: The House voted 93-3 to approve the budget bill Wednesday. Taft said the changes make sense. One measure would remove from collective bargaining 177 lawyers who work for the state but not in the attorney general's · office, and at least 100 more who work for county public defenders, the unions said.

MIDDLEPORT Brooks-Grant Camp Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War held its annual dinner at the Riverbend Ans Council building in Middleport to honor the l39th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address and his _first declaration of Thanksgiving as a holiday. More than 40 attendees gathered for the occasion. Glenn Davis of Qnadenhutten spoke on his work compiling a history of the 18th Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry. He said the original regiment was a.90day regiment, since the belief was that the war would end quickly. This regiment contained two companies from Meigs County - the Pomeroy Guard, a company of Germans, and the Meigs Coun.ty Rangers. The company was reorganized in late 1861 as a three-year company with pan of the old re~iment and many new recruits. He then d1splayed an original musician's sword produced in 1864. Tad Cuckler then showed a rare commemorative with a bas relief of John Wilkes Booth, Lincoln"s assassin. He also reponed that the camp had given a large donation to the Lambert Lands project. Greg Michael, commander of the Robert S. Garnett Camp Sons of Confederate Veterans, invited the camp to attend a Christmas party in Huntington on Dec. 18. James Oiler, commander, reported that he, Mike Trowbridge, Stephen Massie, and David North attended the Emancipation Day cen\etery in Civil War uniform. He said that the camp was invited to participate in next year's celebration. The camp has contacted a U.S. Colored Troop of re-enactors to participate. Also, the national Sons of Union Veterans has contacted the heads of all the major Ci vii War orders to send representation. The camp held memorial services for Myron Jones, past camp commander. Keith Ashley spoke of the outstanding service Jones had performed for the camp and the great friendships that members had with him. The camp received a favorable report on the preservation of a local cemetery containing the grave of a Union soldier. A report · qn Buffington Island Bimlefield was given. There are unconfirmed reports that the bicentennial cavalry ride across Meigs County may be canceled for lack of funding . Information cards were given to all present to urge letters to Ohio's two U.S. senators urging support of the American Civil War Battlefield Preservation Act. The camp also voted to pursue making commemorative ribbons for next year's 140th anniversary of the battle. Ron Eastman requested arr honorable discharge from the camp. Keith Ashley reponed on his attendance at Remembrance Day last weekend in Gettysburg. He obtained 131 miniatur~ Ohio flags from Ohio's Secretary of State, Kenneth Blackwell, and placed these on the graves of all the graves in the Ohio plot in Gettysburg National Cemetery.

' ,I Court reviews punishment of anti-abortion protesters WASHINGTON (AP) The Supreme Court grappled Wednesday with whether to allow federal racketeering and extortion laws - intended to combat organized crime and corruption - to be used to punish anti-abortion protesters. The case raised free-speech concerns for other types of protesters. • The justices were told that the First Amendment rights of all groups are at stake in the case, a follow-up to a decision by the court nine years ago that anti-abortion groups and demonstrators could be sued in a private lawsuit, under a racketeering law, by abortion clinics. The lawyer for the c;linics and an abortion rights group argued that the punishments are needed to stop violent protests. The Bush administration sided in part with the clinics · and said demonstrators could be sued for blocking business at clinics. ''The First Amendment is not an issue in this case," Solicitor General Theodore Olson told the court. ''There's always a First Amendment implication in a protest case," Justice AnthOI)y M. Kennedy responded. The case does not involve the constitutionality of abortion, but emotion from aborlion rights supporters and foes has spilled into court filings and outside the court Wecl!lesday. About 30 abortion rights supporters chanted and carried signs outside the court before Wednesday's argument "Enjoy that while you can. If you win in this case, you won't be able to do that," the Rev. Patrick Mahoney; amon~ a slightly smaller group of sl~­ carrying abortion foes outs1de the court. yelled at the group. The Supreme Court heard appeals from Operation Rescue, anti-abonion leader Joseph Scheidler and others who were ordered to pay damages to abortion clinics and barred from interfering with their businesses for lO years. The punishments were under the 32-year-old Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, known as RICO, and the Hobbs Act, a 1946 law aimed at crushing organized crime. The groups sued by the National Organization for Women and abortion clinics in Milwaukee and Wilmington, Del., over what they described as violent tactics. Lower courts found that the protesters illegally blocked clime entrances, menaced doctors, patients and clinic staff and destroyed equipment during a 15-yearcampaign to limit or slop abortions at several clinics. They were ordered to pay $257,780 in damages. "It wasn't smacking people around. It was just not lenmg people in (to the clinics)," JuStice Antoniri Scalia said of the protests. · Justice Sandra Day O'Conltor seemed to disagree. · "We're not talking about conduct that's .lawful here," O'Connor said. ''To paint the picture we're talking about just pure speech is not the case." were Companies to .pay $500 million for · secretly taping college athletes naked CHICAGO (AP) -A federal judge has ordered eight companies and three people to pay. $506 million to 46 college athletes secredy videotaped in the buff, with the images sold over the Internet The athletes had sued over the footage.

"We look at this judgment as the court system sending a signal to the sexual predators that they're not going to get away with this," said attorney Cindy Fluxgold, who represents several of the athletes. U.S. District Judge Charles P. Kocoras' Nov. 25 decision grants each of 46 athletes $1 million in compensatory darnages and $10 million in punitive damages. The remainder of the $506 million award will go to court costs and attorneys: fees.

WASHINGTON (AP) The White House has.reinstated a program awarding large cash bonuses to polilical appointees, a practice that had been stopped during the Clinton administration because of concerns about potential abuse. The program was authorized early this year by White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card, but was not previously disclosed, according to White House officials. The program, first reported by the New York Times; is taking place amid, widespread frustration among career federal workers. Bush recently denied them the full raise sought by Congress, and gave the private sector more power to compete for federal jobs. The bonus program allows political employees . to be. given bonuses for superior work alongside career federal workers, who already are eligible , for merit bonuses. Critics, including former Clinton administration officials who helped end the practice, say the program could be used to reward employees for their political activity. In light of past concerns, Card's memo directs federal management to make sure that all bonuses are reviewep by high ranking agency officials. "Federal workers deserve to be rewarded for good work and there should not be a distinction between those who do good work because they're civil. and those who do good work because they're appointed," White House spokesman Ari Fleischer said. "Good work is good work and good work by federal employees all of whom are paid by the taxpayers should be rewarded." . According to Fleischer, cabinet-level offici~ls and agency chiefs are authorized for the first time in eight years to approve annual bonuses of up to just over $15,000 for the influential senior officials brought into the administration by Bush's team. Many of these employees already earned $115,000 (o $140,000. No new spending will be required to finance the bonuses, he said. Currently, 1.8 million workers are eligible, he said; The new policy makes some 2,000 more eligible. White House workers cannot receive them, he said. Asked why, he said: "I'd like to find that · out myself, frankly." "All awards must be based on substantihl work achievements that go well beyond the performance of routine duties," said the March 29 memo from Card. "Political· employees should be judged and rewarded in the same manner as career employees." The change makes about 2, 100 political appointees eligible for bonuses. · Constitution guarantees a trial by use of the electric chair cruel and a jilry, and that that right extends . unusual .punishment Nebraska to sentencing. is the only state with the electric Nebraska lawmakers recently chair as its sole means of execuchanged state law to allow juries tion. ·Lawmakers have been rather than judges to detennine if unable to pass a bill changing the aggravating factors exist to merit method of execution to lethal a sentence of death, rnther than injection. · life in prison. in cases where the Lotter and Marvin T.

NATIONAL VIEW Question: I am a 77 -yearold. man diagnosed last May with polycythemia vera. I was experiencing shortness of breath and felt very tired most of the time. Since then I had a phlebotomy four different times. Before this treatment my hematocrit was 63 - it's now 46. I still ~t shortness of breath, .but It's not as bad as it was. Before I was diagnosed I was very active, walking two miles, dancinll on weekends and exercismg three to four times a week. Now I am very limited in all of those activities. What is the prognosis? Will I et better over time? Or, will have to be satisfied with my · condition? Answer: You have given a very good description of the symptoms of polycythemia vera. This is a condition that strikes men more frequently than women and usually occurs in people over 50. In polycythemia vera, the bone marrow produces too many red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. The cause is not well defined, but this condition has been associated - in some cases - with radiation exposure. There isa1so some evidence that it IJiliY run in families. The primary symptoms of polycythemia vera are itching after bathing, shortness of breath, easy bruising, headaches, fatigue and blood clots. An enlarged, tender spleen is very com1110n; Many people with polycythemia vera have a ruddy complexion, and elevated· blood pressure. The primary cause of these symptoms is increased viscosity or "thickness" - of the blood, as. well as increased volume of blood. This diagnosis is easily made with a complete blood count (CBC), and a bone marrow biopsy m11y also be indicated in some cases. Having too much blood can ·cause a number of medical · problems, such as blood clots, heart attacks and strokes. Nosebleeds and intestinal bleeding are frequent complications of polycythemia vera. Gout is also a common complication of polycythemia vera and should be treated if it arises. While having too much blood that is too "thick" can predispose a person to blood clots, it can also make surgery riskier, as this increased blood often doesn't clot well after surgery. The good news is, this is a very treatable illness. The primary treatment is the one you mentioned - phlebotomy. This procedure is simpler than its Latin name may imply. It simply involves removing blood from the body in a manner similar to what you may have experienced when you donated blood at the Red. Cross. Generally, blood is removed when the hematocrit is elevated - above 52 for males and 47 for females. These hematocrit figures, by the way, represent the percentage of the volume of a blood sample occupied ~y cells (e.g., red and· wh1te blood cells). As you can see, your pretreatment 63 was elevated, but your current 46 is within the nonnal range for men. The frequency with which you wtll have .to undergo future phlebotOJrues will be "determmed by how quickly your hematocrit returns to an elevated level. There are also medications that can be used to decrease the bone marrow activity, but phlebOtomy is the mainstay ·o f treatment.

KONDRACKE'S VIEW Daschle, Gore go overboard with attacks on Bush You can understand how post-election stress disorder may account . for Sen. Thomas Daschle's (D-S.D.) verbal. excesses. But excess seems to be exactly what we can expect from AI Gore as a 2004 presidential candidate. Daschle, normally mild-mannered, presumably will return to form when he gets over the unexpected loss of the De·mocrats' majority status in the · Senate. Gore, on the other hand, has served notice that he will "let it rip" from now on -presumably to express a true new Gore and also appeal to Democratic primary voters. Both Daschle and Gore are swinging· wildly and doing themselves and their party no long-term good. Daschle evidently went into Election Day believing that his party might lose. a Senate seat in Missouri, but would hold Georgia and pick up seats in Colorado and New Hampshire, with his home state of South Dakota a close call. Associates say he is still in shock over losses in four of the five contested seats. He strained mightily and helped save fellow Democrat Tim Johnson in South Dakota. Since the loss, Daschle has questioned whether President Bush's war on terror has made any progress, accused radio .talk-show host Rush Limbaugh of inspiring physical threats against himself and his family, implied there's a danger of religious violence in America and belatedly tried to turn the charge of "obstructionist" · back on Senate · Republicans. Unlike Daschle, who looks exhausted · from his labors in the Senate and on the campaign trail, Gore is returning to pol· itics well rested from two·years of time off since his traumatic loss of the presi· dency at the hands · of the Supreme Court. . Yet, he is already over the top, imply· 10g that Bush concocted a war plan against Iraq for _political advantage, alleging that "AI (,.!aeda is back at full strength" and declaring Bush 's economic policies "a catastrophic failure" when / unemploy.ment is still under 6 percent. good if he or his office said so. In fact, across the board it would be good if Daschle's office - with help from other senators - did a better job of explaining their positions on legislation.

Morton · Kondrncke RYAN'S VIEW Washington suse of words determines our actions Bv JoAN RYAN We often think of words as Post-it notes on the different objects and actions in our lives: phone, walk, book, eat. The words aren't anything in themselves. They simply providethe thinking goes - symbols of the actual objects or actions so we can communicate about them. This is not in the least bit true, of course, as · writers and realtors can tell you. Words have artist's 'hands. They shape and color every object and action to which we attach them. An old, cramped house, for example, is suddenly transformed by the words "charming" and "cozy." Mary Robinson has a particular sensitivity to words. It is not just because she is from Ireland, where she served as president from 1990 to 1997. It is more because of what she saw and heard after Sept. II, as she traveled the world in her job as United Nations high commissioner for human rights. (She left the post in September.) "Everything," she says, "is justified by that T-word." The T-word is terrorism. Robin son said the United State made a dangerous and costly mistake by choosing the words "war on terrorism" to frame its response to the Sept. II attacks. I , , ' "Calling it 'a war on terrorism' enriches the terrorists," said Robinson, who was in San Francisco last week for a Global Fund for Women fundraiser. "It makes them freedom-fighters. It is very exciting for them to be in a 'war' a~ainst the U.S. It's the wrong dynamic : ' Much more serious is the etlect the U.S. "war" has had on government leaders around the world. They see the United S-tates holding detainees from Afghanistan at the naval base at Guantanamo Bay w ithout formal charges, trials or access to counsel. They see the United States putting the world on notice that the United States will ·enter any nation with or without permission in pursuit of terrorist~ ­ They hear the Umted States declare It will unleash pre- emptive" strikes against any country believed tp have weapons Of mass destruction. They see how the "war" has loosened the rule of law in the United States. l:he government has ·granted itself the powers for accessing private information of its citizens and visitors , for wiretappin~ their· phones, retrieving their e· _ma1l and voice mail. Foreign leaders, Robinson said , are pointing to the Bush a~ministration' s heavy-handed, Big Brother tactics at home to provide cover for their own human rights violations: silencing dissidents, undermining civil liberties, abandoning due process, invading pri.vacy, inciting violence, ordering sum· mary executions._ We would be seeing a very different scenario unfold, Robinson believes, had the United States characterized the attacks as "crimes. against humanity/' The response could have been a worldwide manhunt in which every country was obi igated to root out, ·and bring·to justice, all those responsible for planning and aiding the attack. It would have been a prosecutorial response with at least some accepted and recognizable rules, instead of an amorphous war with virtually none. The attacks of Sept. II were what they were. Words cannot change the event itself. But the words our government consciously chose in the- aftermath of Sept. II determined what path we would take into the future. "War" gives a government the opportunity to cross legal and ethical lines. It should not give citizens an excuse to tolerate them. (Joan Ryan is a columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle.

The case involved a 34year-old man with a thyroid condition who was being treated with radioactive iodine. Three weeks after treatment, he complained to his doctors that he'd been stripsearched twice at Manhattan subway stations·. "Police had identified him as emitting radiation and had detained him for further ques·. tioning," according to the let-. ter in WednesdaY's Journal of the American Medical Association. "He returned to the clinic and requested a letter stating that he had · recently been treated with radioactive iodine," said the letler from Drs. Christoph Buettner and Martin .Surks of Alben Einstein College of Medicine. · The experience suggests that radiation detection devices are being installed in public places in New York and perhaps elsewhere Jnd that patients should be informed of the potential problem, the doctors said. They said they called New York's terrorism task force for advice and were told that doc· tors should give patients let· ters describing the isotope used, its dose and date of treatment. Such letters should also include doctors' phone numbers to allow pohce to verify the information, the physicians said they were told. "Even in the bes.t-case scenerio, however, the patient would have to wait during this verification process," the doctors said. Patients may choose to avoid public transportation to escape the problem, the doctors said. Tom Kelly, a spokesman for the Metropolitan Tmnsportation Authority in New York City, said he knew nothing of the man's case or the journal letter. · Michael O'Looney, spokesman for the New York Police Department, said police have no record of the incident and have not devel· oped any official policy "for such circumstances. .Radioactive materials have a variety of medical uses, including cancer treatment and diagnostic imaging tests. In the case detailed in J AMA, it was used to treat Graves' disease, an autoimmune disorder that causes excessive production of thyroid hormones. Fonner President Bush was treated for the condition with radioactive iodine in 1991. PULASKI, Pa. (AP) -A wood- and coal-burning furnace started a deadly fire that destroyed an Amish family's wood-frame home and killed five of the nine children, authorities said Wednesday. The parents escaped into the bitter cold with four children, but the fire was too intense for anyone to get back inside the two-story house to rescue the others, police said . When firefighters reached the home in Pulaski Township in western Pennsylvania just after 10 p.m. Tuesday, the home was engulfed in flames. Killed in the fire were Katie, 14; Levi , 12; Neil , II ; John, 4; and Jonathon, 2, police said. All their bodies were recovered inside the home, police said. Wednesday morning, only one wall and a brick chimney of the house reinained standing. Rudy Wengerd and his wife were treated at Jameson Memorial Hospital in New Castle and released, said nursing supervisor Bonnie Appugliese. Police didn't release the wife's name, but neighbors identified her as Lizzie Wengerd. Neighbors said the home was built by the Amish about 30 years ago, but that it had been converted into an "English," or modern , house . They said th e Wengerds had moved there in August and were remov ing some modem amenities. Authorities said Wednesday that a wood and coal-burning furnace in the home had caused the fire, though they were unsure whether an ember from the furnace or the heat it . generated sparked the blare.

There were the Chinese symbols ,for trust, faith and respect imprinted on his left ann and leg, there to remind him of his principles. "Everything was moving so fast I didn't even know what was going on," Clarett said after his first practice. Clarett was sturdy enough mentally and physically to rumble for 1,190 yards and 16 touchdowns, both records for an Ohio State freshman. He was obviously in it hurry. Fourth on the depth chart the first day he suited up, Claren ended up as a difference-maker for the Buckeyes, who have sidestepped a series of close calls and near misses to go 13-0 and earn a spot in the national championship game at the Fiesta Bowl. "Everyone says he's the best player in college football minus a few ballgames," linebacker Matt Wilhelm said. ''I totally believe that." Clarett did what few freshman running backs have done at the college level and he did it despite missing one game due to arthroscopic knee surgery and all of two others and parts of iwo more ·eengals from Page 81 him.

"I guess the next thing I should have said was, out of Purdue to replace kicker Neil Rackers, then started having second thoughts when Rackers had a solid training camp. Rackers has continued to kick well, leaving Dorsch inactive for every game this season. In effect, he has been an insurance policy - an odd way for a team to use a fourth-round pick. Dorsch practices kicking and punting during the week, staying sharp for next year. During one practice last week, he and Rackers built a snowman while waiting for the ·rest of the team to finish practice. It's better than doing noth- · ing. because of nerve darilage to his shoulder. His first year in college has been an education on the field and off.

(AP) - Michigan State hit Virginia with a 17-0 run and a style the Cavaliers couldn't deal with. Chris Hill scored 22 points and Aloysius Anagonye added 10 points and nine rebounds as the 21st-ranked Spartans beat No . 22 Virginia 82-75 Wednesday night in the ACC-Big Ten Challenge. . The. Spartans took control . of the game with the 17-0 run ·holding Virginia scoreless for over six min· utes - that made it 33-19 with 4 :19 left in the half. "l thought there were stretches where we played as hard as we have in a couple years," Michigan State coach .Tom lzzo said. "I didn't realize we had a 17-0 run. That's gi:Jod. A lot of lhat came..Mff our defense, and that makes it even more impressive. We didn't do that.last year." · .The Spartans (3-2) avoided their first losing record since 1995 when they started 1-2 in lzzo's first season. "It's about Michigan State pride," Anagonye said . Virginia (3-2) · lost to Indiana in ' the Maui Invitational final after beat· ing Kentucky. "They were holding us, grabbing us and mugging us, but that's the way the game was played," Virginia coach Pete Gillen . said . "You ' ve got to adjust to the game, and we didn't." · Todd Billet had 28 points for Virginia and Devin Smith scored a career-high 24. Not coincidentally, the game 's decisive burst began when · Travis Watson was called for his · third foul midway through the first half. The Cavaliers' leader in scoring, rebounding and assists had just 10 points on 4-of-9 shooting , six rebounds and no blocks. "Travis Watson getting three fouls was a big blow for us," Gillen said. Michigan State led by 11 points at halftime and was up 59-41 midway through the second hal f. Watson's second basket with 7:02 left cut Virginia's deficit to 59-50. The Cavaliers co uldn't get closer until a jumper by Billet brought them within seven points in the final minute . "We still have a long way to go," Hill said. "We have to learn to be more consistent and not let teams come back like that when we have Kansas beats Cent. Missouri LAWRENCE, Kan.

The Spartans relied on balanced scoring , scrappy defen se and rebounding against Virginia just as they did in winning four of the past five Big Ten titles and advancing to three of ttie previous four Final Fours. In addition to Hill and Anagonye's 32 points, Alan Anderson ( 15), Kelvin Torbert (11), Paul Davis (nine) and Adam Ballinger (seven) gave Michigan State scoring options in addition to three other players who scored. "That's great to me," lzzo said. ''We did have some balance." The Spartans - with role players such as Tim Bograkos diving for loose balls - limited Virginia to 36 'percent shooting in the first half and 47.4 percent overall and won th e rebounding, battle 31-28. "We got on the floor and played more like we need to play," lzzo said. "There are still stretches when that di sappears, but that was a good team we played .".
