She is gone and this. is the only way we can show our love for her. This is' our way of doing it, but Io and behold, we have graveyard thieves stealing everything off the grave. We call the police and they say they can't do anything about it, talk to the trustees, can't do anything about it.

Mary Medley Bidwell CHARLESTON -A state-run insurance plan for do.c ton was among solutions discussed Friday during the meeting of a work group appointed by Gov. Bob Wise to study rising malpractice insurance rates. The plan, which could offer either primary or excess coverage, would be oper: ated by the state's Board of Risk & Insurance Management. But the plan was only one of several proposed solutions, "none of which is perfect; ' said state Deputy Insurance Commissioner Vince King. The meeting was the group's first. Wise attended the first hour of the more than two-hour meeting. King also introduced a plan that calls for establishing a malpractice insurance pur- chasing pool that would offer a carrier an exclusive contract for West Virginia's doctors. The pool would be most effective with mandatory participation by all state physicians, King indicated. The state is exploring a multistate purchasing bur so far has had no takers, Insurance Commissioner Jane Cline said. It . may be hard for West Virginia physicians to take part in a mu!tistate medical malpractice insurance pool, because liability laws for different states may vary, she said . Physicians have been battered by rising malpractice insurance rates and many are having their coverage canceled for no good reason, Wise and others said. "Our main object is availability and affordability of insurarice,"Wise said. Wise said there is no single cause of wh3t he caUed an insurdnce "crisis." But Wheeling physician John Holloway, president of the West Virginia Medical Association, indicated that lawsuits are the primary reason the insurance rates are so high .. "From the physicians' perspective, the system is the problem," Holloway said. Though Holloway didn 't offer statistics to back up his assertion, he said such statistics do exist, as well as "a tremendous amount of anecdotal evidence."

Mary Medley Bidwell CHARLESTON -A state-run insurance plan for do.c ton was among solutions discussed Friday during the meeting of a work group appointed by Gov. Bob Wise to study rising malpractice insurance rates. The plan, which could offer either primary or excess coverage, would be oper: ated by the state's Board of Risk & Insurance Management. But the plan was only one of several proposed solutions, "none of which is perfect; ' said state Deputy Insurance Commissioner Vince King. The meeting was the group's first. Wise attended the first hour of the more than two-hour meeting. King also introduced a plan that calls for establishing a malpractice insurance pur- chasing pool that would offer a carrier an exclusive contract for West Virginia's doctors. The pool would be most effective with mandatory participation by all state physicians, King indicated. The state is exploring a multistate purchasing bur so far has had no takers, Insurance Commissioner Jane Cline said. It . may be hard for West Virginia physicians to take part in a mu!tistate medical malpractice insurance pool, because liability laws for different states may vary, she said . Physicians have been battered by rising malpractice insurance rates and many are having their coverage canceled for no good reason, Wise and others said. "Our main object is availability and affordability of insurarice,"Wise said. Wise said there is no single cause of wh3t he caUed an insurdnce "crisis." But Wheeling physician John Holloway, president of the West Virginia Medical Association, indicated that lawsuits are the primary reason the insurance rates are so high .. "From the physicians' perspective, the system is the problem," Holloway said. Though Holloway didn 't offer statistics to back up his assertion, he said such statistics do exist, as well as "a tremendous amount of anecdotal evidence." Lawyers on the work group. countered that legal action is the only defense consumers have against bad doctors.

WASHINGTON (AP) - A federal appeals court Friday refused to delay the government's case against Microsoft, clearing the way for a new judge to decide what penalty the software giant should face for antitrust violations. The Supreme Court, however; still may decide whether to take up Microsoft's appeal. That decision is expected as early as October.

WASHINGTON (AP) - A federal appeals court Friday refused to delay the government's case against Microsoft, clearing the way for a new judge to decide what penalty the software giant should face for antitrust violations. The Supreme Court, however; still may decide whether to take up Microsoft's appeal. That decision is expected as early as October.

Since 19BO, only three first-time, seasonopening starters have been able to guide their team to the national title. Another name might be added to that list in th e 2001 college football odyssey. Seven of the top 15 teams in the AP preseason poll , including No. 1 Florida, No. 3 Oklahoma and No. 6 Florida State, begin their title quest with newly appoinced starters. The oth ers are No. 9 Virginia Tech, No. 12 Michigan , No. 13 Kansas State and No. 15Washington. Besides Martin, che other quarterbacks on the short list both played for Miami Bernie Kosar in 1983 and Steve Walsh in 1987. Miami has an added distinction: Two first-timers combined to pass the Hurricanes to che '89 crown Craig Erickson and Gino Torretta. And there's also Oklahoma freshman Jamelle Holieway.

Shelton and guard Pete Kmdall- as well as center Mike Gruttadauri:J and 6-foot7, 355-pound tacld,e Anthmiy Clement. Quarterbacks Doug Autie of San Diego and Jay Fiedler of Miami battled injuries last preseason and earned starting jobs despite conflict and uncertainty. They have since emerged as offensive leaders for the Chargen and Dolphins and will start the teams' preseason game Saturday night at Pro Player Stadium. Autie needed a uniform change to make it happen. Fiedler jwt needed a chance. "I feel very relaxed;' Autie said. "It's a comfortable feeling being the No. 1 quarterback. It's a big challenge, after this team went 1-15 year last year." It also helps that he w<in't have to keep looking over his shoulder like he did in Buffalo, where he shared.work·with Rob Johnson. Autie was 21-9 as a starter with the Bills, including 4-1 last season. He expects to go through this season without the same tension he dealt with in Buffalo. So far, so good. l'iiANTS New York Giants coach Jim Fassel saw in the videotape of Thursday's preseason game against Jacksonville what was missing in his team a week earlier against New England focw. "The theme of the week was I want to see everybody compete:' Fassel said Friday after the Giants' 27-5 victory over the Jaguan. "When I watched the tape, I looked at our intensity and it was a lot better:' After a la!=kluster, 14-0 loss to Nevi England a week ago, Kerry Collins completed 8 of 11 passes for 89 yards and a touchdown and Joe Jureviciow caught seven passes for 68 yards against Jack~ sonville.

Actually, I was only indirectly struck by lightning and I really didn't think too much about it at the time," he said. Instead, he went on coaching, but felt a few twinges now and then.

"I- went back out and shoveled more SfiOW in the evening and then it hit." He did not feel he could be having a heart attack because he ·was, as he said, in good shape. But he was ·having a heart attack and it was not of the garden-variety kind either. It seems the lightning strike had damaged the veins and arteries on one side of his heart. He would have to have a bypass. "They took veins out of my forearm and used them," he said. . He was in such good physical condition that the surgeons performing the bypass surgery did not crack his chest open from the front, opting instead to enter from the side. Yet for all his good physical conditioning, he did not feel much like coaching or anything else for that matter. "!love coaching, but it was a hard thing for me to do," he said. "I had a great group of parents and they helped me all they could. But it was tough." Stewart said the parents of a couple of his wrestlers helped him out. "They knew I had a hard time yelling instructions at the wrestlers, so they sat behind. me and told me to tell them what I wanted to say and they would ·yell it for me;: he said. "So I'd sit there and say 'ta:kedown' and they would yell 'takedown' to the wrestlers. They were great, but it was tough." It got so tough that Stewart did not even go to spring football practice because he was too tired. · " Hazel (his wife) and I talked it over and decided to quit," he said.

Stewart's Red Devils post~d a 3-7 record last year. He is hoping for improvement this season. But the improvement he seeks is for the team since Stewart knows there are much more important things in life than football wins and losses. onds. With a solid lead, the Wahama defense took over, forcing another Wildcat fumble and a safety with 8:48 left in the second quarter.

Stewart, naturally, would like to win many more games as the football coach at Calhoun County H igh School, but, in the big picture he already is a wmner.

Heilman "Bucky" Stewart, a man who loves coaching and · calls football season "my vacation," left the coaching profession a couple of years ago because, he says, he had no energy. "I thought if that was the way I was going to feel the rest of my life that coaching was not something I could do," he said. "So l quit." He walked away from a good situation as head football coach at Woodford County (Ky.) High School, where he had led his team to the state playoffS every year except one. He retired to Braliton County.

Quarterbacks Doug Autie of San Diego and Jay Fiedler of Miami battled injuries last preseason and earned starting jobs despite conflict and uncertainty. They have since emerged as offensive leaders for the Chargen and Dolphins and will start the teams' preseason game Saturday night at Pro Player Stadium. Autie needed a uniform change to make it happen. Fiedler jwt needed a chance. "I feel very relaxed;' Autie said. "It's a comfortable feeling being the No. 1 quarterback. It's a big challenge, after this team went 1-15 year last year." It also helps that he w<in't have to keep looking over his shoulder like he did in Buffalo, where he shared.work·with Rob Johnson. Autie was 21-9 as a starter with the Bills, including 4-1 last season. He expects to go through this season without the same tension he dealt with in Buffalo. So far, so good. l'iiANTS New York Giants coach Jim Fassel saw in the videotape of Thursday's preseason game against Jacksonville what was missing in his team a week earlier against New England focw. "The theme of the week was I want to see everybody compete:' Fassel said Friday after the Giants' 27-5 victory over the Jaguan. "When I watched the tape, I looked at our intensity and it was a lot better:' After a la!=kluster, 14-0 loss to Nevi England a week ago, Kerry Collins completed 8 of 11 passes for 89 yards and a touchdown and Joe Jureviciow caught seven passes for 68 yards against Jack~ sonville.

Actually, I was only indirectly struck by lightning and I really didn't think too much about it at the time," he said. Instead, he went on coaching, but felt a few twinges now and then.

But following a snow one winter day, he started thinking about it a lot. "I went out and shoveled snow in the morning and felt fine," he said. "I- went back out and shoveled more SfiOW in the evening and then it hit." He did not feel he could be having a heart attack because he ·was, as he said, in good shape. But he was ·having a heart attack and it was not of the garden-variety kind either. It seems the lightning strike had damaged the veins and arteries on one side of his heart. He would have to have a bypass. "They took veins out of my forearm and used them," he said. . He was in such good physical condition that the surgeons performing the bypass surgery did not crack his chest open from the front, opting instead to enter from the side. Yet for all his good physical conditioning, he did not feel much like coaching or anything else for that matter. "!love coaching, but it was a hard thing for me to do," he said. "I had a great group of parents and they helped me all they could. But it was tough." Stewart said the parents of a couple of his wrestlers helped him out. "They knew I had a hard time yelling instructions at the wrestlers, so they sat behind. me and told me to tell them what I wanted to say and they would ·yell it for me;: he said. "So I'd sit there and say 'ta:kedown' and they would yell 'takedown' to the wrestlers. They were great, but it was tough." It got so tough that Stewart did not even go to spring football practice because he was too tired. · " Hazel (his wife) and I talked it over and decided to quit," he said.

Stewart's Red Devils post~d a 3-7 record last year. He is hoping for improvement this season. But the improvement he seeks is for the team since Stewart knows there are much more important things in life than football wins and losses. onds. With a solid lead, the Wahama defense took over, forcing another Wildcat fumble and a safety with 8:48 left in the second quarter.

Stewart, naturally, would like to win many more games as the football coach at Calhoun County H igh School, but, in the big picture he already is a wmner.

Heilman "Bucky" Stewart, a man who loves coaching and · calls football season "my vacation," left the coaching profession a couple of years ago because, he says, he had no energy. "I thought if that was the way I was going to feel the rest of my life that coaching was not something I could do," he said. "So l quit." He walked away from a good situation as head football coach at Woodford County (Ky.) High School, where he had led his team to the state playoffS every year except one. He retired to Braliton County.

Or try walking into Baskin Robbins every summer day and asking for the same double-dip of vanilla. It's good, but it's the same thing ·every time. A lot of Lake Erie fishermen have followed that approach for many years. The Jake has earned its well-deserved international reputation as the walleye capital of the world, becoming known as a "walleye lake," but · Lake Erie is hardly just that. There is no dispute the walleye is the biggest guy on the block when it comes to fishing on Lake Eri e. It generates hundreds of millions of dollars for the lake's sportfishing industry and the almost l ,OOO charter boats serving the public. Still, though the walleye is king, th~se who know Lake. E~1e best are quick to pomt out It IS ~ot the onl~ member of the lakes royal family. . 1 "There are a number of other fish out there that offer great sport, fine eating, and plenty of challenges," said Gene Majni , a 20-year yeteran of the. charter boat business who operates primarily out of Port Clinton during the fishing season. "Everyone knows about our walleye fishery, but the fact that Lake Erie is truly world- class in terms of its smallmouth bass and yellow perch fish.ng IS not as wellpublicized," said Majni, a Cleveland-area native who pursues all three species in the lake's Western Basin. '' If you just fish for walleye, then you've only seen the tip of the iceberg. You've cheated yourself." The smallmouth are powerful and acrobatic occupants of the lake's rocky shorelines, reefs and island areas. They ·grow to trophy size in Lake Erie, and the lake holds a very strong and healthy population of the bronze-backed fish. Although not as prized table fare as the walleye, the smallmouth surpass their toothy roommates of the lake by leaps and bounds when it comes to fight. .. , . , . . There s really no companson~ said Walt Ermanson, who runs hiS Trophy Charters In Ashtabu la , but spends the first couple of months, of the season moored 111 Port Chnton where he can regularly fish the nearby Bass Islands. "The smallmouth will run,Jump, dive and flip around li ke ·crazy once they're hooked. Reeling in a walleye has been likened to bringing up a log, because they usually don't have a ton of fig ht in them ." Yello)V perch fishing generally grows more popular in the early fa ll when wall eye are tougher to come by, but a few fishermen find the' perch to be a welcomed relief from 'the lo ng runs out in the lake that often accompany th e pursuit of the walleye. Perch fishing is very good in the nearshore areas, and in ing, have many other choices," Knight said. "The neat thing is that the protection of the island.s. "Perch fishing . is a lot of fun. you never really know what you They are great to eat and it's just are going to catch out there." not as difficult overall as walleye For anglers in the eastern half of fishing is," said Teri Reinhart of the lake, that catch is including rural Fostoria, who has fished Lake more steelhead, a rainhow trout Erie witll her husband, Ralph, for that was stocked in the streams about 15 years.

OHIO OUTDOOR NOTEBOOK A trip on the Muskingum River . Parkway is a journey back in time BY LAURA JONES OHIO DNR Looking for something truly unique in Ohio's great out<;loors? The Muskingum River Parkway certainly 1ills that bill. Winding through the scenic hill country of southeast Ohio, ~~the-parkway blends-histoey- andnatural beauty to provide visitor.; with an experience unlike any found e~here in the state.A journey along the Muskingum River (and its parkway) is a trip back in time. A century anp a half ago, the Muskingum busded with paddlewheelers and barges, carrying people and goods to the new states and territories of the Midwest.A system often hand-operated navigational locks and ten dams, designed by Major Samuel Curtis and promoted by Ohio pioneer Rufus Putnam, acted like a sbirway for boats moving _pp and down the fast-flowing river. Once the locks and dams were built, the river became navigable froni Marietta to the terillinus of the Ohio & Erie Canal at Dresden in Muskingum County. Curtis' navigation system, completed in 1841, enabled boats to move easily from the Ohio River, through the heart of the Report Dear Abby ADVICE Invitations create sticky problem for honoree· Fishin' Kids BUICKS&PO W.Va. riShing Report """'*' "" Ca1llsh ... wi1IW1 casli1g dlslanoe """"' at '"1" '""''""""'" "'hoki'"'YdaepO..mg ""' baits ... good -lorcatllsl1. ~ "" day so hi best waneye liming n ""' lake starts .. dJsk ......, waJeyo """"' i1to wal8r at ni!j1t to feed.

Or try walking into Baskin Robbins every summer day and asking for the same double-dip of vanilla. It's good, but it's the same thing ·every time. A lot of Lake Erie fishermen have followed that approach for many years. The Jake has earned its well-deserved international reputation as the walleye capital of the world, becoming known as a "walleye lake," but · Lake Erie is hardly just that. There is no dispute the walleye is the biggest guy on the block when it comes to fishing on Lake Eri e. It generates hundreds of millions of dollars for the lake's sportfishing industry and the almost l ,OOO charter boats serving the public. Still, though the walleye is king, th~se who know Lake. E~1e best are quick to pomt out It IS ~ot the onl~ member of the lakes royal family. . 1 "There are a number of other fish out there that offer great sport, fine eating, and plenty of challenges," said Gene Majni , a 20-year yeteran of the. charter boat business who operates primarily out of Port Clinton during the fishing season. "Everyone knows about our walleye fishery, but the fact that Lake Erie is truly world- class in terms of its smallmouth bass and yellow perch fish.ng IS not as wellpublicized," said Majni, a Cleveland-area native who pursues all three species in the lake's Western Basin. '' If you just fish for walleye, then you've only seen the tip of the iceberg. You've cheated yourself." The smallmouth are powerful and acrobatic occupants of the lake's rocky shorelines, reefs and island areas. They ·grow to trophy size in Lake Erie, and the lake holds a very strong and healthy population of the bronze-backed fish. Although not as prized table fare as the walleye, the smallmouth surpass their toothy roommates of the lake by leaps and bounds when it comes to fight. .. , . , . . There s really no companson~ said Walt Ermanson, who runs hiS Trophy Charters In Ashtabu la , but spends the first couple of months, of the season moored 111 Port Chnton where he can regularly fish the nearby Bass Islands. "The smallmouth will run,Jump, dive and flip around li ke ·crazy once they're hooked. Reeling in a walleye has been likened to bringing up a log, because they usually don't have a ton of fig ht in them ." Yello)V perch fishing generally grows more popular in the early fa ll when wall eye are tougher to come by, but a few fishermen find the' perch to be a welcomed relief from 'the lo ng runs out in the lake that often accompany th e pursuit of the walleye.

The Gallia County-based group began in the spring of 1998 and has since grown to become one of the areas most requested gospel acts. " What started out as an evening of fun quickly turned into a full-time job for the Lord." That assessment comes from group owner Willie Church, ~ho recently anno un ced the signing of two new group members for the popular trio - · Gary Kearns of Lincolnton, N.C., and Larry Jones of Point Pleasant, W.Va. . "Change is inevitable with any group," said Church. " A full time group faces many difficult challenges that call for a very deep commitment from very dedicated people. Singing is far more than harmonies -and a bus . There are hurting people out there that need the love of Christ in their lives. " It takes a very special person to sacrifice personal and family time for total strangers. It is clear that God has call ed Gary and Gabriel into . this 24-hour-a-day ministry. Released has been blessed by the ir additions." For those unfamiliar with Released, this past winter saw the group lose two of its major elements in Tim Moses and M ark Sanders. T he two longtime g roup members left within weeks of each other (both for good r~a­ sons) leaving Church to question the future of the singing ministry. At first there Church. was the thought of a solo ministry, but according a Singing News magazine poll (the bible for Southern Gospel music fans) less than 4 percent of th ose who attend church and gospel concerts regularly said they would travel to hear a soloist. ''I'm not the sharpest pencil in the box," quipped Church, "but even I can figure out that people prefer grou ps. Even th ough it has been a rough spring and summer, we did not want just anyone for Released. "My wife (Tammy) and I wanted to pray and see whom God wo uld send our way. It's not easy being patient when you are losing over 70 percent of your scheduled appointments. But we have tried to be obedient and we feel the Lord has rewarded our efforts. "Just the rumor of a new trio has caused the phone to ring off the hook. When people hear h'o w special Gary and Larry really are, we might have to buy another phone;" Kearns; his wife Jenny and ,......,~--:--, their two daughters, Emily and Ashley, live near Lincolnton . For those of who have traveled to Charlotte, N.C, I-77 takes you within a ~w miles of the Keam~ Kearns' home . Like many gospel artists, Kearns began singing and playing piano as a child in local ch urches. His talents led him to sing with his middle school, high school and- college choirs.

A Florida panhandle city had a scare when a· black bear ambled around town and tried to crawl in a boat before running away. Jim DeVries was caught off guard by the bear - and the 911 operator after phoning in a complaint about the 160pound animal. "They asked me who I needed: fireman, police or an ambulance," DeVries said. "I said 'I don't know. I've got a bear in my yard.' " When the bear tried to crawl into the boat in thi~ Pensacola suburb, a sheriff's deputy yelled "Hey. get off that boat," Lt. Jim Lyle said of the Tuesday sighting. Going On NOW!

The Gallia County-based group began in the spring of 1998 and has since grown to become one of the areas most requested gospel acts. " What started out as an evening of fun quickly turned into a full-time job for the Lord." That assessment comes from group owner Willie Church, ~ho recently anno un ced the signing of two new group members for the popular trio - · Gary Kearns of Lincolnton, N.C., and Larry Jones of Point Pleasant, W.Va. . "Change is inevitable with any group," said Church. " A full time group faces many difficult challenges that call for a very deep commitment from very dedicated people. Singing is far more than harmonies -and a bus . There are hurting people out there that need the love of Christ in their lives. " It takes a very special person to sacrifice personal and family time for total strangers. It is clear that God has call ed Gary and Gabriel into . this 24-hour-a-day ministry. Released has been blessed by the ir additions." For those unfamiliar with Released, this past winter saw the group lose two of its major elements in Tim Moses and M ark Sanders. T he two longtime g roup members left within weeks of each other (both for good r~a­ sons) leaving Church to question the future of the singing ministry. At first there Church. was the thought of a solo ministry, but according a Singing News magazine poll (the bible for Southern Gospel music fans) less than 4 percent of th ose who attend church and gospel concerts regularly said they would travel to hear a soloist. ''I'm not the sharpest pencil in the box," quipped Church, "but even I can figure out that people prefer grou ps. Even th ough it has been a rough spring and summer, we did not want just anyone for Released. "My wife (Tammy) and I wanted to pray and see whom God wo uld send our way. It's not easy being patient when you are losing over 70 percent of your scheduled appointments. But we have tried to be obedient and we feel the Lord has rewarded our efforts. "Just the rumor of a new trio has caused the phone to ring off the hook. When people hear h'o w special Gary and Larry really are, we might have to buy another phone;" Kearns; his wife Jenny and ,......,~--:--, their two daughters, Emily and Ashley, live near Lincolnton . For those of who have traveled to Charlotte, N.C, I-77 takes you within a ~w miles of the Keam~ Kearns' home . Like many gospel artists, Kearns began singing and playing piano as a child in local ch urches. His talents led him to sing with his middle school, high school and- college choirs. Even his service with the U.S. Marine Corps did not stop Kearns from singing praises to the Lord. "God has given me my talent. Every chance I get to use His gift I w ill," said an excited Kearns . His desire to help others does not stop with music. Kearns is actively involved with many charitable events in the Lincolnton community.

Jones, his wife Robin and their thre e children, Emily, Steve and Elizabeth, are well-known Point Pleasant residents.

Larry Jones is also known from his singi ng days with The Joyfu !aires. For yea rs, he sang baritont and traveled nationally with the Winfield , W Va.-based gospel group.

A Florida panhandle city had a scare when a· black bear ambled around town and tried to crawl in a boat before running away. Jim DeVries was caught off guard by the bear - and the 911 operator after phoning in a complaint about the 160pound animal. "They asked me who I needed: fireman, police or an ambulance," DeVries said. "I said 'I don't know. I've got a bear in my yard.' " When the bear tried to crawl into the boat in thi~ Pensacola suburb, a sheriff's deputy yelled "Hey. get off that boat," Lt. Jim Lyle said of the Tuesday sighting. Going On NOW!

Lakers garb when he started working with Spike Lee on the soundtrack to th e 1988 film "School Daze." But Lee persuaded ' Blanchard to root for his favorite NBA tea m, the New York Knicks, and their relationship has been harmonious ever· smce. The trumpeter was al ready a rising jazz star when Lee gave him th e chance to write his first co mplete · score for 1991's "Jungle Fever." Since then, Blanchard ha s written the scores for nearly all of Lee's film s, including "Malcolm X" and "Clockers." Blanc.hard, 39, has · now written more th an 30 TV and film scores. Moreover, he's demonstrated his versatility by composing a classical-style piano concerto for Samuel L. Jackson in "The Caveman 's Valentine" and an Afro-Cuban-inflected orchestral score for " Original Sin;' the Antonio BanderasAngelina Jolie film. Blanchard says · his Hollywood career has enhanced his primary work as a jazz )>andleader and composer. His 1999 orchestral CD, 'Jazz in Film ," offered new interpreta- . ti ons of classic jazz-influenced score s from such films as "A Streetcar Named Desire" and "Taxi Driver." For his new CD, "Let's Get Lost" (Sony Classical), Blanchard has put together a cast featuring his regular quintet and four leading jazz divas Diana Krall, Dianne Reeves, Cassandra Wilson and Jane Monheit.

Yet, how does diabetes affect the eyes? Simply put. diabetes occurs when the body cannot process I SUi!ars properly. Theexcess sugar will circulate through the body. causing a long-term detrimental effect on the entire body, including lh e eye.

Lakers garb when he started working with Spike Lee on the soundtrack to th e 1988 film "School Daze." But Lee persuaded ' Blanchard to root for his favorite NBA tea m, the New York Knicks, and their relationship has been harmonious ever· smce. The trumpeter was al ready a rising jazz star when Lee gave him th e chance to write his first co mplete · score for 1991's "Jungle Fever." Since then, Blanchard ha s written the scores for nearly all of Lee's film s, including "Malcolm X" and "Clockers." Blanc.hard, 39, has · now written more th an 30 TV and film scores. Moreover, he's demonstrated his versatility by composing a classical-style piano concerto for Samuel L. Jackson in "The Caveman 's Valentine" and an Afro-Cuban-inflected orchestral score for " Original Sin;' the Antonio BanderasAngelina Jolie film. Blanchard says · his Hollywood career has enhanced his primary work as a jazz )>andleader and composer. His 1999 orchestral CD, 'Jazz in Film ," offered new interpreta- . ti ons of classic jazz-influenced score s from such films as "A Streetcar Named Desire" and "Taxi Driver." For his new CD, "Let's Get Lost" (Sony Classical), Blanchard has put together a cast featuring his regular quintet and four leading jazz divas Diana Krall, Dianne Reeves, Cassandra Wilson and Jane Monheit.

Perhaps the Gallian who has given away the most flags in the county's history would be Alonzo Cameron Safford . He was born in 1862, the greatgrandson of Gallipolis pioneer Robert Safford, and he died in 1952. In his 90-plus years, Alonzo in conjunction with Woodmen of the World gave away thousands of American flags. For many years, Safford was the only Gallian. who· was a member of that fraternal organization. Safford was particularly noted for his Memorial Day speeches on the flag and what the flag stands for. During World War II, Safford loaned his speaking talents toward the raising of money through the sale of war bonds. But maybe Safford's most noteworthy speech was about "Dollar Bili." The speech was based on a letter that Safford had first written back in the 1920s as a way to raise money for Grace Methodist Church. Safford was an active member of St. John's Bible Class. In 1933, during the height of the Depression and just after the "bank scare," Safford reintroduced his letter.

Goodman, who has been studying biodiesel for 20 years, thinks it might have a bright future in the field of cleaning products. Goodrum says biodiesel , made from soybeans and peanuts, is safer than most of the harsh. chemicals used in typical household cleaners. (AP·Photo) Scientist making cleaning safer Bv Ewerr MINOR ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER LBANY, Ga. - farmers have been pushing biodiesel - made from th e o'i! of soybeans, peanuts-and-oth~r crops - as an alternative to gasoline, but ·a University of Georgia researcher thinks it might have a better future making safer cleaning products. John Goodrum, who has been studying biodiesel for 20 years, noticed its cleanint,~ properties when he poured it into a tank that had contained regular diesel. "We realized that we t,~ot a free tank cleaning," said Goodrum, adding that biodiesel is safer than most of the harsh chemicals used in typical hou se~ hold cleaners. The average American ·home has approximately 3 to 10 pounds of corrosive, flammabl e or· poisonous chem icals in everything from furniture polish toovencleaners to flea powder. Exposure to some of the chemicals . can cause eye and skin irritation, or'. more serious illnesses if the products are accidentally ingested. "Many industrial-strength cleaners are chlorinated and contain che111icals linked to cancer," Goodrum said. "The solvents used to remove grease from cars and the cleansers used by commercial la11ndries are very toxic to humans." Real estate funds still holding their own BY DIAN VWOVICH NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSOCIATION One of the things that makes America great is the fact that folks can own their own home, property, or any other kind of real estate investment that they choose. One of the things that makes fund investors grateful is when real estate investing pays off. If you check . out the performance of real estate funds, you'll find that, year- to-date, it's the only fund type within Lipper's Sector Equity Group that's showing positive returns. As of August 9, the average real estate equity fund was up 8.1 percent. . Jay McKelvey is the portfolio manager of the John Hancock Real Estate Fund (800-2255291 ), one of the real estate funds that's beating the average. It's up 10.42 percent for the year; last year, the fund was up 26.4 percent. Currently, most of the fund's assets (74 .9 percent} are invested in Real Estate Investment Trusts (RE!Ts) and mortgage banking (I 0.79 percent). A look at the lund holdings show an under- weighting in apa rtments, retail and hotels. "We're a little concerned abo ut the economy right' now and don't expect it to turn up dramatically," says McKelvey. "If we did expect that, we would go into the hotels and retail." Here's more • from McKelvey about the John Han cock Real Estate Fund OREAX) : Q: Tell me more about why the fund is underweighted in things like apartments, retail and hotels? . A: First, we manage this fund conservatively. It's because of our concerns about the economy and consumer spending, which has led to underweighting in things like malls and retail. Up to this . point, we've been wrong about consumer spending, bur l just don't know how it is going to keep up. . We don't like hot.els tight now because hotels have a one-day lease. So, hotel stocks can move dramati cally, depending upon how the eco nomy is working. Right now, the daily rates are gomg down . And we are under- PINII su Dian. D8 A typi cal toilet-bowl cleaner containing bleach is labeled "poison.'' A typical bug spray has a label ca u(ioning users to avoid contact with skin, eyes . or clothing. Goodrum said produ cts made from biodiesel would be much s afer. -. · '--~ " If you drink a littl e bit, it's no big ·deal ," he said. "They don 't kill little things in the water. They actually can be used as food , so it is a very envi romnentally friendly product."· Biodiesel costs I 112 ttm es as ~uch as regular diesel fuel , but it is becoming more popular as ; fuel additive becau se it reduces soot and carbon monoxide e miSSIOns. However, Please see sa-.r, D8 Cattlemen 5 banquet slated for Aug. 30 GALLIPOLIS Th ~ Galli a County Cattlemen 's · Association . B'anqu et is scheduled for Aug. 30, beginning at 7 p.m . at the Bob Evans Farm Shelterhouse in Rio Grande.

(AP) Ames Department Stores Inc., seeing little light at the end of the economic tunnel, said Thursday it would close another 4 7 stores in 10 states by the end of October. "We've continued to see a softening economy in the last several months and don't anticipate much improvement in the short term," Ames Chairman Joseph Ettore said. " In this tough economic eli- mate," he said, "we feel that it is in the company's best interest to put our efforts into our viable core business which represents just over 400 store locations." In West Virginia, the company plans to close its store at the Middletown Mall in Fairmont. Ames closed six stores in West V 1rginia in February. Two of those stores were in Huntington. The others were in Charleston, Hurricane in Putnam County, New Martin sville in Wetzel County and Vienha · in Wood County. The bulk of the new closings are m Ohio, where 15 stores will close, and Pennsylvania, where 12 will close. In all, some 2,000 employees will be affected, the company said. Where possible, the workers will be offered jobs in other Ames stores. In May, Ames reported a first- quarter net loss of$27.7 million, dr 94 cents per share, compared wtth a loss of $29.1 million, or 99 cents per share, in the same quarter last year. Ames, which reports its secondquarter results Aug. 23, said sales for the first quarter were off 4. 5 percent from the year-ago period. Earlier .this month, Ames said its July sales were down nearly 9 perce nt from the same period last year. In November, Ames announced it wn closing 32 stores, tncluding · 31 of the stores it acquired frqm Hills Stores Co. in December 1998. The West Virgmia closings earlier this year were among those announced last year. In trading Thursday on the Nasdaq Stock Market, Ames shares fell 5 cents to close at 73 cents, down 6.3 percent.

BOSTON (AP) - A key figure in an embezzlement scam that bilked $9.4 million from the state treasury pleaded guilty Friday to conspiracy and concealing -stolen property. Richard C. Arrighi, 43, a top fund-raiser a nd personal ·lawyer for former state Treasurer J oseph D. M alone, was one of seven men charged in the scheme. Four of the others, including two Treasury officials, have also pleaded guilty. "The misuse of professional skills, the lack of oversight, the influence of politics, the influence of fund raising - it's a very, very ugly story," said Attorney General Thomas Reilly. State investigators believe Arrighi devised a web of real estate q·usts and transactions to launder S1.6 million from the Treasury between 1992 and 1999. The money was taken from a fund to cover state checks that had not been cashe d. Prosecutors all ege " former Deputy Treasure r Robert E .' Foley and others conspired with Arrighi to fake claims agai nst the fund, which Foley controlled. Arrighi also pleaded guilty to eight counts related to income tax evasion and filing false returns. He will be sentenced on Sept. 26 and could face up to. 30 years. M alone was not charged in the case, and declined comment on Friday Galli a Co.

(AP) Ames Department Stores Inc., seeing little light at the end of the economic tunnel, said Thursday it would close another 4 7 stores in 10 states by the end of October. "We've continued to see a softening economy in the last several months and don't anticipate much improvement in the short term," Ames Chairman Joseph Ettore said. " In this tough economic eli- mate," he said, "we feel that it is in the company's best interest to put our efforts into our viable core business which represents just over 400 store locations." In West Virginia, the company plans to close its store at the Middletown Mall in Fairmont. Ames closed six stores in West V 1rginia in February. Two of those stores were in Huntington. The others were in Charleston, Hurricane in Putnam County, New Martin sville in Wetzel County and Vienha · in Wood County. The bulk of the new closings are m Ohio, where 15 stores will close, and Pennsylvania, where 12 will close. In all, some 2,000 employees will be affected, the company said. Where possible, the workers will be offered jobs in other Ames stores. In May, Ames reported a first- quarter net loss of$27.7 million, dr 94 cents per share, compared wtth a loss of $29.1 million, or 99 cents per share, in the same quarter last year. Ames, which reports its secondquarter results Aug. 23, said sales for the first quarter were off 4. 5 percent from the year-ago period. Earlier .this month, Ames said its July sales were down nearly 9 perce nt from the same period last year. In November, Ames announced it wn closing 32 stores, tncluding · 31 of the stores it acquired frqm Hills Stores Co. in December 1998. The West Virgmia closings earlier this year were among those announced last year. In trading Thursday on the Nasdaq Stock Market, Ames shares fell 5 cents to close at 73 cents, down 6.3 percent.

BOSTON (AP) - A key figure in an embezzlement scam that bilked $9.4 million from the state treasury pleaded guilty Friday to conspiracy and concealing -stolen property. Richard C. Arrighi, 43, a top fund-raiser a nd personal ·lawyer for former state Treasurer J oseph D. M alone, was one of seven men charged in the scheme. Four of the others, including two Treasury officials, have also pleaded guilty. "The misuse of professional skills, the lack of oversight, the influence of politics, the influence of fund raising - it's a very, very ugly story," said Attorney General Thomas Reilly. State investigators believe Arrighi devised a web of real estate q·usts and transactions to launder S1.6 million from the Treasury between 1992 and 1999. The money was taken from a fund to cover state checks that had not been cashe d. Prosecutors all ege " former Deputy Treasure r Robert E .' Foley and others conspired with Arrighi to fake claims agai nst the fund, which Foley controlled. Arrighi also pleaded guilty to eight counts related to income tax evasion and filing false returns. He will be sentenced on Sept. 26 and could face up to. 30 years. M alone was not charged in the case, and declined comment on Friday Galli a Co.

Biodiesel production is expected to climb to about 25 million gallons this year, up from 5 million gallons last year. Farmers are pushing for . state ·and federal subsidies on biodiesel fuel, which reduces soot and carbon monoxide em1sstons, but increases nitrous-oxide emissions · slightly. Goodrum thinks. that there is an even bigger potential to help farmers by using biodiesel in cleaning products. He is testing different kinds of biodiesel in his Athens lab. Biodiesel, is usually made from soybean oil. It can also be produced from peanut, cotton and corn oil, or from recycled vegetable oil from restaurants . • "Five ditferent kinds of oils could be separated from c-rude peanut oil and made into cleansers with different uses," he said. In tests, biodiesel cleaners have dissolved grease, while . many conventional cleaners only "spread that stuff around," Goodrum said. "We think there's going to be interest and desire to use a truly green product. We feel like the industry will develop over the next few years with some specialized products."

On Wall Street, the report failed to cheer investors. The Dow Jones industrial average lost 66.22 points to close at 10,345.95. Manufacturers have borne the brunt of economic slowdown, and many believe the industry is in a recession of its own. In response to sagging . demand, manufacturers have slowed production and shed 837,000 workers during the 12 months that ended with July. Especially encouraging to some economists was that factory production, down a sharp 1 percent in June, was flat in, July. National Association of Manufacturers economist David Huether viewed that as "a welcome sign that the plunge may finally be over."
