Little did I. know I was My mission as Miss America is Ann Pet Allergies - Sometimes a happy ending for everyone By Alden Waitt, President Meigs County Humane So.:lety In an earlier column, I noted that one of the reasons cited by people surrendering dogs and cats to shelters is allergies to cats and dogs. My private (not so private, now, I suppose) belief is that most people are not really allergic at all, at least not in some life-threatening way. In my experience, most often adults' "allergic reactions" are highly exaggerated. First of all, I question the whole process of determining allergies. It seems to be that if you go about injecting twen· ty items·(dust, cat dander, etc.) under someone's skin, she or he will react to something! ,. Then, there 's the whole psychological drama involved in saying "I can't live"with cats, or dogs or hamsters, or whatever. "Often peo· pie are punishing their mates, simply can't endure "competing" with an a~imal for someone else's affections, or are simply so controlling, so human-species oriented, that they can't share their space with a creature that does not talk with them - in a conventional way, that is. Typical of these is an acquaintance who is extremely egotistical aitd incapable of any sp.ontaneous display of empathy (unless she · herself experienced the particuhir malady or problem), and allegedly allergic to cats. It wasn't until the eat's presence in a friend 's hoose was remarked upon (she had been in the house for five hours, blissfullyunaware of the malevole_nt feline lurking in the next room) that she suddenly began scratching her arms, coughing, and making . a spectacle of herself. And so... I know this sounds:ter'ribly biased. I admit up front that I am high." ly suspicious of humans who don' t care for nonhumans. Those tedious people who complain that dogs drool and that cats scratch the furniture are dreadful ·to be trapped with in a broken elevator. They usually dote. on their grandchildren, which is fine, until they insist on regaling you with stories of them. I don't break out in hives or start sneezing, but a profound melancho.ly settles over me, or I become immediately sleepy. There are all kinds of allergies, after all. For those out there whose immune systems are severely compromised, for those who are managing serious il)nesses, it would perhaps be better not to look for a pet. If you already have taken on the commitment of an animal in your life , by all means contact ,a physician to see if you can get relief from your symptoms. For those healthy people who already have animals and f:nd their bodies reacting to the dander of a cat or dog, there is hope . Yqu could limit the animal's run of the house. The bedroom, for e•ample, could be off-limits. Frequent bathing of pets and frequent vacuuming will make a difference, as, of course, will the kind of animal (short or long-haired).· ' · In addition, there is a new product on the market, a 16-ounce bot"tle of relief called Sneeze No More. Available in -specific formulas for dogs and cats, it. neutralizes the area where the pel sleeps and spends most of her/his time. I haven't tried it Remember, I'm only allergic to some people.

F::':~~~ Nude photo incident prompts officer's unpaid suspension By JIM FREEMAN SenUnal Nawa Staff . Pomeroy Village Council, meeting in regular session Monday I n;.,ht agreed to suspend one of its poJice officers without pay.· Pnt;ce dispatcher Lois Shane has accused police Capt. Jim , Stacy of transposing an image of her bead onto a nude body. He then allegedly showed the composite image to at least. one male officer in the police department, she said. Shane and he_r husband, Tim, raised their concerns with council during open session, demanding that council take action on the matter. · She said she now has to ask herself if the people who saw the picture see her as she really is, or as she appears in the picture, which she described as "graphic," showing a nude woman with her· legs open. ·· . .. - -Shane has been employed as a full-time dispatcher for about a year after spending several years as a part-time dispatcher. Afterwards, council met in ex~cutive session to discuss the matter ll!ld met with other police officers before deciding to suspend Stacy without pay. Council President John Musser said the incident allegedly occurred around the middle of January and was brought to coun-· cil's attention during its Feb. 1 meeting. He said Stacy was placed on paid administrative leave the' next day, pending an investiga· tion into the accusation. "That's what we've been doing." he said. He said council' is taking the matter very seriously and commented that council members, the mayor and the polic~ chief have 1decli11ed examining the picture out ofrespect for Mrs. Shane. "Out of respect 10 Mrs. Shane, I don't feel that it is necessary for us to look at the picture at this time," he said. "She has every right to feel offended 811d has council's sympathy," he said. "I felt we took appropljate action." Stacy, a veteran officer with about" nine .years in the depart~ merit, was present anc! represenied by his attorney, Charles Knighl . Knight commented this morning that he and his client will wait until they receive .a written order of the suspension before deciding on a further course of action. "It sounded like a great deal of it was simply horseplay among the police officers;" Knight said. "Apparently other incidents have occurred, leading (Stacy) to believe it was not out of line." "I believe all of the members of the police force were surprised that it caused that reaction," he added. tllhfser said council is working with its legal counsel, Olris Tenoglia, on the matter.

"Grand, gloomy and peculiar," another writer mused in 1848. "A vast r.ractical joke," an exasperated English newspaper correspondent sputtered ilunng the Civil War. ; Complaints about the city of Washington and those who govern here started early and have never ceased. : The soornful at first directed their needles at the puffed-up preteniioushess of a 10-mile-square patch of brush and swamp, with an unfinished, ~omeless Capitol and virtually no creature comforts, claiming itself as the capt tal of a self-respecting nation. Boosters envisioned the reincarnation of ancient Rome. Detractors saw the city as a mouse with delusions of grandeur. "This embryo Capital, where Fancy sees, squares in morasses, obelisks in trees,"declaimed visiting English poet Thomas Moore in 1806, six years after the government moved in. Created expressly as a federal distnct apart from any state, Washington had no past, hardly any present and an extremely cloudy future. As the city's first century unreeled and Washington Ctty made itself an enduring fact, the complaints shifted to the character of the government the city housed. "Persons who love dissipation, persons who love to watch the game of politics, and those who make a study of strong minds under great excitement like a season m Washington," travel writer Harriet Martineau asserted in 1838. The British soldiers who torched the place m 1814 fanned the fires with derisiOn. • Lt. James Scott called the burned-out Whtte House no great loss. It was, he declared, "remarkable for nothmg, except the want of taste." The city that rose from the fire got no slack from the tMvelers who followed the Bnttsh army. "The whole affatr ... looks as though some giant had scattered a Jot of chtld's toys at random," Capt Bast) Hall wrote m 1827 "Everything wears the appearance of poverty and want of permanency," Charles Francis Adams told his diary seven years later "The town looks like a large straggling village (eared in a drained swa!J1p," said traveler George Combe m 1838 Charles Dickens, vtsiting in 1842, found the Capttol stained wtth the juice of chewed tobacco. The carpets were so drenched and filthy that anything dropped on them should be left there, even a wallet, he cautioned. As to the place itself, Dtckens wrote, tl ts "a city of magnificent mienlions," none of them realized. "Washington offers a ciinchmg proof of the propositiOn that one cannot bring a great city mto existence by mere will power," said French scienttst Jean-Jacques Ampere in 1851. The Civil War brought Washmgton danger and confuston and more complaints than ever dust, dtrt, squalor, nOise . " I found the Capttal still under the reign of King Mud .," Brtttsh novelist Anthony Trollope wrote. "If one were to judge the Amencan people by their capt tal, one would have a ver.y poor opmion of them," a vtsttmg Frenchman, Ernest Duvergier de Hauranne, said m 1864 "Washington will be, I have no doubt, someday uproariously splendid, but at present it isn't anything. It is in the Distrtct of Columbia and the state of the future ... , " George Agustus Sal a, a correspondent for the London Telegraph, observed in 1865 Sala emptied hts bucket of disdain to produce this: "a great, scrambling, slack-baked embryo of a city basking in the December sun like an alligator of a mud bank of a bayou in July " By century's end the mud had dried and the government at Washington did its best to rule And the complaining continued • "The progress of Evolution from President Washington to President Grant was alone evidence enough to upset Darwin," wrote Henry Adams, whose own family included the second and sixth presidents. "My God! What is there m this place that a man should ever want to get into tt?" James Garfield asked tn 1881 Leave the last words to Mark Twain as Washmgton 's first century ended.

Pomeroy • Middleport, Ohio The Daily Sentinel • Page 3 Tueedlly, F~ry 18, 1800- The Daily Sentinel Democrats fear Clinten.may deal with ,aop_ l 'Esta6(isfid In 1948 Tuesday, February 16, 1999 By Morton Kondracke Despite the lock-step loyalty Democrats have shown President Qinton on impeachment, many of them fear he will sell them out this year on budget issues. Liberals fear he may cut a deal with Republicans on tax cuts tn order to get a Social Security bill that gives him a legacy other than scandal. Meantime, New Democrats fear he's in the process . of selling out necessary reforms of Medicare and Social Security in order to keep the Democratic base happy. "Given the record, you never can tell with this guy" is a refram repeated ov"er and over among Democrattc members and top staffers of both camps about Clinton. Doubts are ba5ed on Clinton's record in 1996, when he cut deals on welfare reform and budget balancmg with the GOP in order to wm re-election. Some liberals mutter that Clinton already has ttlted nght to increase defense spending and speed up missile defenses this year. Some moderates mutter that Clinton is undercutting such moderates as Sen. John Breaux, D-La., head of a bipartisan Medicare commission, who wants to reform the program to keep it solvent for the long-term future. Qinton also seems to be siding with traditional Democrats, including labor unions, in opposing the idea of allowing workers to mvest some of their own Social Security money in equity markets, as suggested by Sens. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, D-N.Y., and Bob Kerrey, D-Neb. Netther group is sure which of them he will ultimately disappoint, and they both hope that somehow he'll pull a hat trick: Help wtn back control of Congress m 2000, get Vice PrestdentAI Gore elected president, and achieve a policy legacy for himself. However, top aides to Democratic leaders acknowledge that Clinton's interest in a legacy and Democratic hopes for oongresstonal victories diverge. The best route to Democratic victory m 2000 is to have the Republican 106th Congress achteve nothing to erase the memory of impeachmentmania that's currently hurting the GOP. · ' At the House Democrattc retreat last week at Wintergreen, Va , Minority Lea.der Richard Gephardt, D-Mo, was quoted as warmng colleagues that they could not be seen as the party of obstructton this year. Still, Democrats will pursue a strategy of "our way or no way" -- demanding GOP capitulation on key policy issues and .practicing "principled obstruction" of "bad policy." Thus, Democrats probably will try to block any patients' rights bill that does not allow Jawsuits against HMOs, any partial privatization of Social Security, any shift from "defined benefit:• Medicare and any across-the-board tax cuts. With a five-seat hold on the House and no fil, ibuster-proof majority in ·the Senate, Republicans will find it hard to pass such legislation -- and impossible to override a presidential veto. But if Clinton is hungry enough for a legacy, he might just do a deal with the GOP -- such as reserving 60 percent of future budget surpluses for Social Secunty and giving 40 percent of it back·in tax cuts. Such a deal would allow Republicans to escape the "do-nothing" brand that Democrats hope to pm on them and give Qinton the legacy of saving Social Security in his ~cond term as ' t uses, includmg ~efense increases and ~geted tax : cuts. By propostng to. pay down the nation~ debl ' and lowering federal mterest payments, Clinton's : budget makes Democra~ the "party of fisc~ : responsibility," say top a1des. • Meantime, Republican proposals to cut taxes : by 10 percent acr05s the board and also reduce !h~ ; "marriage penalty," inheritance taxes and capttal ; gains taxes can. only come at the expen~ o~ .

Such a scenario is not only dreamed of by Republicans, but also produces night sweats for some Democrats For the moment, though, Democrats have offictally put aside their doubts about Clinton's loyalty to the party because his budget and their polls seem to have Republicans on the run. The budget reserves fully 77 percent of future surpluses to extend the solvency of Social Security and Medicare, leaving just 23 percent for other these people," a top Democrat said about con- , gresstonal Republicans. :· Moreover, Democrats are comforted by the I absence on "the Whtte House staff of the likes of ' "triangulator" Dick Morris and budget balancer ; Erskine Bowles.

(Morton Kondracke Ia executive editor of Roll Call, the newspaper or Capitol Hill.) · aCCidents., In 1996, the agency complied by publishing a Risk Management Plan Citing the act's "right-to-know" provision, the EPA plan proposed posttng each of the 66,000 Rtsk Management Plans, including the worst-case accident data, on the Internet. The country's chemical makers dtdn 't like this one bit. What chemical company in tts nght mind would want its netghbors to know what could happen tf a fire broke out at its plant? Jeff Van, spokesman for the Chemical Manufacturers Association, told our associate Ashley Baker that "our alarm was driven by the concern of the experts." The experts, it turns out, were on CMA's payroll. According to Van, thetr analysis, titled "The terronst threat in Amenca," con· eluded that the EPA proposal would have provided " one-stop shopping for terrorists." CMA then made sure thetr study found its way into the hands of top officials at the FBI and CIA Chemical manufacturers and the oil and gas industries also pressed their point with key lawmakers, including Bliley. According to the Center for Responsive Politics, the three industnes contributed nearly $1 2 million to various members of the Commerce Committee in the 1998 election cycle, and forked out nearly $70 million in lobbying fees in 1997. Bowmg to industry pressure, EPA officials agreed late last year not to publish the data on the Internet. But tt left open the possibtlity of distributing tl in some other form, such as an encrypted compact disc. While a consensus has ·not been reached, Van told us the CMA favors openness, and would support nonelectronic dtsseminatton of indivtdual Risk Management Plans, if requested through the Freedom of Information Act. The FBI is currently oppos-' · ing the compact dtsc proposal. For thet r part, : Commerce Committee Republicans have sided· · with industry and Jaw enforcement officials. All of which brings us • back to the poor Oklll-_] homa Ctty wtdow, who ' was dragged in front of the cameras to speak at a press conference on the issue ,. At the hearing, several of Bliley's 1 colleagues carefully noted the obvious: The events in Oklahoma City, while a terrible tragedy, had nothing to do:with the EPA's proposal. " I would like to point out that the Oklahoma City (federal) building would not have had to file a Risk Management Plan," said Bart Stljpak, D-Mtch. Others were more direct "Terrorist scenanos are popular foddet with the press," said Rep Ro'n Klink, D-Penn. Klink also noted that extenstve research by hts staff failed to find a single mstance of a chemical storage facility being targeted by terrorists. Of course, that hardly matters when the real agenda is the desire of some chemical makers to hide their dtrty laundry from publl~ view.

Speaking at the conference was a woman whose husband was killed in the Oklahoma City bombing. who was there to remind the audience of what it already knew : that none of us are tmmune from the tragic scourge of terrorism. But that 's not the.only reason she was there Her real purpose was to help the United States Congress to use the fear of terrodsm as an excuse to subvert the public's right to know. The •Commerce Commttlee, among other things, oversees the EPA. For several months now, a coalition of law enforcement agencies, including the FBI and the CIA, have been pressing BIIley to keep the EPA from publishing data they believe could aid a terrorist attack.

'1 • Plge 10 • The Dally Sentinel ' Beat of the Bend ... By Bob Hoeflich Don't expect to see much of Rose Sisson, lifelong Pomeroy resident, in the next couple of months. ·Rose 's home on East Second St., was extensively damaged by fire last Thesday morning. Her insurance company was contacted 'and made arrangements for a Marietta firm which specializes in such matters to handle the problems. The firm will clear out the house and salvage items that are still usable and clean them up. They will also do the repairs so that Rose can return to her home. Meantime, Rose has gone to Galion where she will be with her son and daughter-in-law, Fred and Alice Sisson, until she can move back into her house. Rose has high praise for the Pomeroy Fire Department which she says had 16 firefighters on the scene within seven minutes after receiving · the call, and the Middleport and Rutland Fire Departments which also dispatched firemen to the scene to assist. The firemen did a terrific job, Ro se reports. By the way, tne· fire which started in a house n-.xt door to the Sisson residence was discovered by Tim Oakes, a truck driver. Oakes was sitting in his truck on the Rite Aid parking Jot about 3' • a.m. waiting to make his !lelivery to the store at about 4 a.m.. when he 'spotted the blaze. Oakes called the fire department and assisted in a number of ways in alerting occupants as to what was happening. The saga of the frozen Ohio River continues and it has been concluded that the river must have frozen over several times. It's interesting to note that everyone who remembers the frozen river has to be at least 50 and then some since the most recent report given .was in 1948. The frozen nver has stirred a lot of memories and I can't help but wonder if I have any young readers. If so, they are too young. of course, to respond to the river freezing over question. Ferndora Story remembers the rive~ freezing over in 1936 or 1937. She was a stud~nt at Pomeroy High School and could watch the frozen river from that vantage point. She comments, however, that she was afraid to walk across. By the way, Ferndora reports that Eula Jeffers has undergone surgery at the Holzer Medical Center. Her room number is 206 but she could be home by now so perhaps, yo~ should send cards to her home at 713 Short Fourth St., Middleport. . Austin Wolfe of Racine recalls that the river froze over in 1947 and 1948 and as a small child he watched activities on the ice from the Crow building. Betty Frazier of Middleport recalls the J936 river freeze. She was living in the Point Pleasant area and walked across the river near the Henderson bridge. George Nesselroad of Pomeroy remembers the river freezing in 1948 and he and Paul Werry took Werry's small car onto the ice. Josephine Ritch)e who lives on Route 248 remembers walking across the Ohio in February, 1940. June Sayre rell'embers a freeze in 1936 and her sister, Marge Reuter, sent along newspaper photos showing action on the ice in 1940. At that time a boat, The Fleet, became ice bound near Letart Falls and the late Otis Knopp was night watchman on the boat. Another photo shows the late· Bert Grimm on the ice following a fall while skating. Of course, the weather really had to be cold for the river to freeze over so here's an attempt to warm you up. Mrs. Marvin Jacks reported sighting robins at her Wright St. home in Pomeroy Monday morning and felt that the thought of'spririg coming might help to keep us all smiling. Society Scrapbook .

' By DAVID SHARP Associated PftSS Writer OXFORD, Maine (AP) Cross-cotd.try ski center operators who once shooed away canine companions are now pursuing cuslo'l'ers who take their (our-legged friends along on romps in th~ woods. The result is more and more gr9omed trails dedicated to dog owners. They're known in the business as "loop de poop" trails. · The owner of the Caner's Cross Country Ski Centers allows dogs on all of his trails with one caveat: owners pay full price for a daily doggie pass that will be confiscated for any misbehavior. " We've never had a problem,' ~ said David Carter, who lets dogs romp alongside their owners 0 n 22 miles of trails in Oxford, about 35 miles northwest of Portland. It's a growing doggie-friendly trend at cross-country !kl centers. Dogs were allowed at only a handful of trails a decade ago. Now they're allowed at 53 of 212 areas that belong to the Cross Country Ski Areas Association, according to Chris Frado, president and executive director of the Winchester, N.H.-based organization. iFife reason is simple: For sheer exuberance, it's hard ' to beat the reaction of a dog crunchin~ around in fresh ,. fluffy snow. So It's only natural ·tnat skiers want to let their <;logs tag along. . Michae_l' ·_Bourque of Portland said his -dog Susi, · a Labrador retriever, is 9 years old and gray around the muzzle. "But when she's in the snow, she runs like a puppy.

Housing construction jumps to .12-year high in January By DAVE SKIDMORE Aeaoc!ated Preea Writer WASHINGTON_ (AP)- J;>espite icy weather in the Northeast and Midwest, construction of new homes jumped 3.8,percent in_January to a 12-year high, extending the building boom of 1998 into the new year. . · Builders started construction of houses and apartments at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.80 million, the most since December 1986, the Commerce Department said today. The Federal Reserve said today that production at th~ nation's factories, mines and utilities was unchanged in January after a lackluster 1998. Builders in 1998 started 1.62 million units; an 11-year high, and economists had expected January would mark the start of a modest declin~ during 1999. The conditions thai drove hOmes sales and construction in 1998 - low mortgage rates, plentiful jobs and high stock prices- continued into 1999. In January, starts or single-family homes rose 1.2 percent to an annual rate of 1.39 million, a 15-year high. Starts of apartments shot up 17.1 percent to a rate of 410,000. The South more than accounted for the national gain. Starts there jumped 22.3 percent to a rate of 890,000, the most in 13 years. They rose 3.7 percent in the West to a rate of 446,000. They plunged 2S.3 percent - the sharpest decline in five years- to a rate of 316,000 in the Midwest and slipped 3.2 percent to a rate of 152,000 in the Northeast Housing permits rose 2.8· percent to a seasoMIIy adjusted annual rate of 1.78 million, the most since July 1986. Sluggishness in industrial production continued ·to reflect the loss of export sales to economically troubled countries in Asia and elsewhere. Manufacturing output edged a seasonally adjusted 0.1 percent higher. Gains in the output of autos, computers, semiconductors, lumber and furniture offset declines for aircraft, steel, clothing and tobacco. Utility output rose 0.2 percent but mining output plunged 1.8 percent, reflecting a sharp drop in coal production and lackluster oil and gas extraction. The various changes left U.S. i~dustry operating at 80.5 percent of its capacity. . That's the lowest level in more than six years and means industry has the capacity to increase output,·if necessary, without incurring in nation-causing production bottlenecks. ) 'i \ • 1- � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
