ALLEN AP Science Writer LOS ANGELES - Despite dir:c predictions, El N mo delivered a winter that WIL~ no costlier than either of the previous two punishmg winters in the United States. There's no d01tbt this wmtcr was bad: floods in CalifQmia and the South, blizzards on the Plains, an ice storm I" New England, tornadoes in Flonda. But it d1dn'tquite live up to expectations, according to preliminary 1111hcs by t~e nation's top disaster agency. ·"Everybody was screammg that El Nino was gomg to be Armageddon, but our data reveals that's not what it's turned out to be," sa1d Val Bunting, a spokeswoman for the Federal Emergency Management Agency As of Wednesday, FEMA had committed mon; than $289 milhon for 1997-98 wmter disasters. • .That compares with $294 million m 1996-97 and $280 million in 199596, said Ms. Buntin8, . The winter of 1996-91 had severe ' flooding in the West and the Ohio Valley, blizzards in the Dakotas and Minnesota, and a tornado in Arkansas. And last winter's calamities mcluded a 13-state blizzard and flooding in .the Middle 1\tlantic States, Nonheast and Pacific Northwest. By way of comparison, Ms. Bunting noted that wmtcr damage totaled $126 million in 1987-88, $15.3 million in 1988-89 and $170 million 1n 1989-90. Gettjng a handle on El Nino's full impact in the lJnited States is eornphcated. FEMA's talhes cover only a fraction of the losses, and no central authority talhes lost life and property For example, while FEMA's nationwide figure for this winter is $289 m1lhon, California officials peg their damage at $500 mi Ilion a!)d counting And that pales compared to two olher exceptional California winter stonn seasons - the first three months of 1995 and 1997 - which each produced $1.8 billion in damage. Loss cstnnites also vary among private insurers. "We do a lot of companng apples and orang~s and e~en pomegranates. sometimes." said Maggie Sheehan of the Boston-based Institute for Business and Home Safety, an insurance · industry information-gathering organization. Even if this year's dollars aren't retord, the toll is still huge: • In Florida, 42 people died in overnight tomnd~s on Feb. 22-23. The state has put the storm damage total since September at $500 million. • In New England, two January 1ce storms knocked out power to hundreds of thousands of customers and killed at least J2 I!COplc. Damage exceeded $100 million. Hu11dreds of thousands more were affected in Can11da • In California, sCol'!!\S blamed oh El Nino killed at least 17 people, wiped out stmwberry and lll1ichoke crops. pushed houses off hillsides and washed out highways. Paula Kudroff and her family were spendmg a night m San FranCISCO on Feb. 7 when theu home in the Russian River hamlet of Rio Nido was destroyed by a mudslidc.

By BAM WILBON llmaa Saillnai'Oonnpondant Last Sunday, I stoppefi in Knoxville just in time . for the Lady \bls to win their third .consecutive NCA Division I championship. Coach Summitt put together the most dominant team in NCAA history, 39 wins without a loss. • On my way home, I traveled the )lighway up to lexington. It's only 166• miles away, but we shQuid call that stretch of.lnterstate 75 the "thampions Highway." _ _ · Blue flags with white Ks dominated the landscape. Only the Wildcats' perfoi'mance on the hardwood that evening was more domina~t. With the .exception of an overtime loss to Arizona in last year's final game, Kentucky has been almost as impressive as Tennessee over the past three yean. Kentucky's victory was thai or a syslem ·with interchangeabl~ parts, including the roaches. They simply wore down their opponents untrl they surren~r. Utah rou!dn't handle .the fresh troops Tubby Smith kept throwing lit them. · .It's amazing. but I find it difficult 10 name the Wildcats' starting five for any of the past three seasot15. So many playe!S, so many wins. The one constant is-the system. . . · ~t~y iS' a talented team from1op to bottom. It was appa~ntthal Utah lost the game in tbe fint half. Even when they have a I O-po1n1 lead, you knew it was aver. Too many turnovers.in the fint half doomed the Utes.to the inevitable Wildcats comeback. Utah IOQked exhausted and beaten wllh five minutes to play in the biggest game of th~ir lives. · . . Kentucky came front 18 points down a'ga~nsl Duke, so 10 po~nts were only a few Cameron Mills or Scott Padgett three-polnten from bemg over· come. 1b he safe,' Utah needed at least a 20:poinl cushion by the half. One thing is for certain. The Utes could win the tournament if tliey coufd find a way to be the Wildcats. . Many experts predicted a North Carolina-Kentucky final. I was glad to · see Uaah there, because they deserved it. They "upset" two number ~ne ' · seeds, Arizona and North Cluolina, and finished with a 30-4 record. R1ck I I · .

I, in Estonia, on the Eastern Shore of Baltic Sea in Northern Europe, and my friend of German-Swedish decent in Wis.consjn in the northern United States - yet we had a common memory: the taste of cod-li'<er.oil. . . Sorting through her mother 's silver. my friend li(ted one special spoon, sayi ng "I never use that spoon. Mother.used to dispense cod-liver oil to us children, and I can still taste. it." And tha.t brought the memory of my mother lining-up my two younger brothers with me in the front to receive our "spting tonic," to make us 14ieiiillj1jl healthy and grow strong bones. :. · Accor!ling to "The American Medical AssOciation Home Medical Encyclopedia" (1989) this "pale yellow oil. obtained form the liver of fresh cod ... is a valuable source of vitamin A and . vitami.n D ani! is given to infants as a dietary supplement to ensure the ttealthy development of .bones and skin. Cod-liver oil is available in capsule form and in malt extract." ~hy didn 't my mother know that? We had to swallow it - bad taste and all. From Europe to the USA, the mothers knew what was pest for us - and all we remember is the bad taste of it. Or is it? Grou nd uP' source of medicinal .compounds that have a puring effect on the body.

I was told a story that there is a possibility that children playing and braiding the dandelion blooms may get the effect of this property of the plant through their tender skins- and maybe - just maybe an accident at night could be caused by it.: When you think of picking the dandelion leaves, get them early in the spring, when they are tender (aml before they form the blooms). After tltl: plarlls arc starting to bloom they arc too bitter. In the fall after a hard froljt the leaves arc edible again and have lost their bitterness. Another importaJ!I "thing is to remember where you gather the leaves and roots. . ·· Never, never get them from lawns where fertilizers and wcedkillcrs arj: used - and don't pick them from the roadsides where automobile residu~ .from gas i!tblown over them . · · · · < · If you don 'llell anybody I'll give my secret: I grow them in my herb bed 1 with one firm rule that the llower buds are stripped off before they cv4r become to bu ffhalls. .. • ' All parts of the dandelion arc edible. The rosettes of the 'young plants·(n , the spring could he blanched. The k'llves ca n be used. for salads. The largest amount of vitamin A and calci um make the dandelion for a good spring tonic. When you plan to plant dandelions in your herb bed make it in 'il raised · bed with ex.tra loose soil by adding saw<,lust at other•porous material that lets · you dig the roots without breaking them to usc the roots for roasting to make a coffee substitute, minus caffeine. , , I' li finish with a dandclion 'jcikc, What did 0 ne dandelion tell the other dandelion, when the man was clearing his )awn of dandelions? First dandelion - Wh y is the man digging up our roots? Second dandelion - To make us grow faster. . And this is a fact - Watch carefully digging for the roots.

According to Barbara !(emper, of the Chamber of Commerce, "It is not often that a reenactment is held. Inside a city such as ours. Most of the time it is held in fields on farms and other places.

' through the unchartered lands of Ohio because of hi s finn knowiedge of the land and his apparent ability to deal with Native Ameri cans. He was only 22 when he came to Ohio, but he traversed the wilderness that is no'¥ Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. · Col. Safford must have shown leadership qualities from the very beginning, as it is written that he' was a justice of the peace from 1796 until 1803, and chairman of the first Board of Township Trustees in 1802. • . He was then appointed associate judge of Gallia County on April 6, 1803, appointed to a second term · on Feb. 15, 1810, and on Feb. 18, 1816, was reappointed for a third , term, and on Jan . 22, . 1823, was appointed to hi s fourth term, serv, ing as judge for 26 years. On Feb. 8, 1810; he w~s appoint- . ed chairman of CJalliaAcapemy ana also in 1810, built the first erist mill in the area on Raccoon Creek in Grcen.Township, powered by horses. In Januaty 1810, CoL Safford was ·appointcd the first junior warden of the Morning-Dawn Lodge 7, the first Masonic lodge in the Northwest Territory. He was acti ve in the Masons between 1 ~ 10 and 1827, and then again from IR52 until 1860. · The se facts alone date the jar from betwee n 1810 and 1827, and verifies that it is his .' because there were no other Saffords in the Masonic Lodge at that time in Ohio. · The shape of 'the pot and the manner in which it was made and decorated arc obv<ously from the earlier period of his membership. Now one big question on my mind is, "Did the Masonic Lod~e present thi s jar to CoL Safford'''' It is my belief that they did in gratitude for hi s services to the lodge, probably when his term uf junior warden was over. The above data surely is impressive, )jut it's only the beginning. .Col. Safford was a member of the Ninth General Assembly that met in Zanesville from Dec. 3, 1810 until Jan. 3, ·1811. · He was also a senator in the I Jth General Assembly for Gallia and Meigs counties, as well as in the 27th and 29th General Asscmblies, ending his legislative service in 1831 . • !• • • • By: Jamea Sanda ', ' Since the Roedeii-Nevius build· ing at 358-360 Second Avenue in Gallipolis was erected in 1895, the ' structure lias housed a variety of businesses including a drug store, Oower shop, lunch stand, fruit stand, smoke house and clothing store.

But there are times when it's tough to make the same distinction in the new, pumped-up movie version of " Lost in Space." Yes, the film employs·the '90s' array of special effects ~ but the writing is so stale and in such a broad way. fs the dialogue intentionally bad? Or 'is that just how Akiva Goldsman writes? the jury is still out on this guy, given the quality of his 'hits ("The Client," " A Time to Kill") and the obviousness of his misses (the last two "Batman" movie~). Consider · this starchily laughable exchange: When Major Don West (Matt LeBlanc) tells Judy Robinson (Heather Graham), "Try having some fun sometime," she replies: . "I spent the last three years working on this mission, trying to s~ve the planet. There's no time for fun ." Director Stephen Hopkins creates a whole nc~ look · and gives the action a crispness that goes a long way toward masking its missteps. The visuals are a ·mixed bag, funning from state-of-the-art computer-'generated imagery to some.sets that wouldn't have passed muster on .the ·"Star Trek " of the '60s. And Hopkins can do nothing abcut,Goldsman dialogue Jhat runs the gam~t from wooden 'to obvious, with only the nccasional one, liner to reawaken the audience. 1l1e film is set 60 years in the future.

Mysteries' By MIKE HUGHEs Gannett News Service ·: Inside a film studio, John Gray was making- or re-making- history. "We basically had to build the inside of the Ford's The,atre," Gray says. That was 'one of the complications in making "The Day Lincoln Was Shot," which premieres at 8 p.m. EDT April 12 on TNT. In studios and in two Virginia cities, he brought 1865 Washington to life. How .do you do that? It takes time, talent and a ton of money. Al least, it's a lot of money by1V standards, Gray puts the "Lincoln" budget at somewhere near $9 million- about triple the size of a network movie. ,; "That's the wonderful thirig ·about TNT," he says. Maybe it's Jbe wonderful thing . about cable in general. You can see that now, with three epic period· pie'<Cs arriving within eight days: • "Tom Jones" debuts at 8 p.m. ~pril 5 on Arts and Entertainment, . but spells "sequel" in' flaming debris. "Lost in Space" obviously has aspirations to become the kind of long· running money-maker that the "Star Trek" movies' have become. And,lik~ "StarTrek," the fir\;t"Lost in Space" movie is a big, lumbering dud, which spends half its time setting up the story ·and the other half telling a '"1\vilight Zone" -reject of a tale. To h~ credit, Hopkins uses actors Hurt, Rogers and · Oldman to lend just the right melodramatic edge to material they are trying to play seriously.

The' effects generally hold up their end 'of the bargain, which is more thai\ can be said for the script. As the Robinsons pick their way througl\ a rather complicated and unexciting story about time travel, Goldsman takes the opportunky to examine the Robinson family dynamic. Dad (William Hurt) is so caught up in the space-travel project that he has had no time for any of ~is kids. So Mom (Mimi Rogers) has been both mother and father, but it's not enough to keep the two younger Robinsons, Will (Jack Jo,hnson) and Penny (Lacey Chabert), from running a little wild. 'The film ends in a blaze of visual fireworks that all "My mother married the only Irishman in County Kerry who couldn't sing - and that's whose si nging voice I got," Stack says. Believing there had to be some ai,>ility " hiding under there," his mom signed Stack up for lessons with the voice coach of actresssinger Deanna Durbin. · The teacher figured a little exposure to Durbin's talent would benefit Stack and took him .on a field trip to Universal Studios to see her. Producer Joe Pasternak quickly spotted the handsome 20-year-old. " How would you like to be in pictures?" Pasternak asked, offering a screen test. The job turned out to lJe opposite · the teen-age Durbin in 1939's "First Love," and Stack had the muchpublicized honor of bestowing her first screen kiss. He .also was inlrO'duced to moviedom's pecking order. As the film 's star, Durbin had the lul(ury of a work day that ended at 6 p.m. That left Stack to do his cl~e­ ups without her; a chalk mark ·on a blackboard was to serve instead, director Henry Koster told him. "'That's Deanna Durbin?' Stack asked. . ~ Yes, Koster said. "Now you think she's wonderful, now you're falling in love," the director instructed as the camera panned in on Stack. "I began to look a little crossey~d." the actor recalls. "Later, one of t~e reviews said Robert Stack showed great promise, even to the fact his eyes seemed to change focus when he looked at Deanna Durbin." Stack, eventually skillful enough to gain a best supporting actor bid for 1957's "Written on the Wind," chuckles at that long-ago notiee. He allows that he doesn 'I try to take things too seri011sly.
