commena are tolerated on their
base or aboard their ship, and 37
percent said they liad personally

PONTIAC, Mich. (AP) -A judge on Friday let stand a $25
· rhillion jury verdict that found "The Jenny Jones Show" negligent in the slaying of a guest killed after he revealed'a gay crush
on another guest.
.
Circuit Judge Gene Schnelz rejected an attempt by attorneys
for Warner Bros. and Telepictures, the show's distributors, to
· throw out the verdict, reduce the award or grant a new trial.
· ' An Oakland County jury last May held the show and its cor- ·
porate owner, Warner Bros., liable in the shooting death of Scott
· Amedure, who had revealed his 11ttraction to Jonathan Schmitz
'during a 1995 taping of the program. Amedure was shot dead
.
' three days later.
· · "Whether they lib it or not, each side received a trial of its
own making and neither has any cause to complain;' Schnelz
ruled . .
. . Attorneys Ven Johnson and Geoffrey Fieger represented the
. Amedure family in its wrongful death lawsuit against the show.
Amedures sued the talk show in · 1995, contending that
" ~cltmitz was ambushed and tricked into believing his secret
aorrur•'r was a woman.
"· Attorney James Feeney, who represented Warner Bros., said he
was disappointed but not surprised by the ruling, which will be
. ~ppealed.
··, "I continue to remain very optimistic;· Feeney said. "The
' ~ou):t's decision doesn't change our 'view on the law in Michi, .gan. We're going to present all of .those views to the Court of
·Appeals. The case should never have been sent to a jury in the
first place." ·
: '. '. Telepictures also said it would appeal the decision.

Activists are welcoming effOrts to

the military, saying it's about time
officials "finally acknowledged" the
lon~tanding problem.
Defense Secretary William
Cohen announced Friday he's creating a special committee to look
into the problem after a Pentagon
inspector general's survey found
that anti-gay speech and harassment
is commonplace in the ·American
military, especially among ~ung
enlisted troops.
Eighty-five percent of those surveyed said the}t believed anti-gay
commena are tolerated on their
base or aboard their ship, and 37
percent said they liad personally
witnessed ·or been the talget of
harusment - such as hosti)e gestures, graffiti or p~ysical assault based on 'perceived homosexuality.

PONTIAC, Mich. (AP) -A judge on Friday let stand a $25
· rhillion jury verdict that found "The Jenny Jones Show" negligent in the slaying of a guest killed after he revealed'a gay crush
on another guest.
.
Circuit Judge Gene Schnelz rejected an attempt by attorneys
for Warner Bros. and Telepictures, the show's distributors, to
· throw out the verdict, reduce the award or grant a new trial.
· ' An Oakland County jury last May held the show and its cor- ·
porate owner, Warner Bros., liable in the shooting death of Scott
· Amedure, who had revealed his 11ttraction to Jonathan Schmitz
'during a 1995 taping of the program. Amedure was shot dead
.
' three days later.
· · "Whether they lib it or not, each side received a trial of its
own making and neither has any cause to complain;' Schnelz
ruled . .
. . Attorneys Ven Johnson and Geoffrey Fieger represented the
. Amedure family in its wrongful death lawsuit against the show.
Amedures sued the talk show in · 1995, contending that
" ~cltmitz was ambushed and tricked into believing his secret
aorrur•'r was a woman.
"· Attorney James Feeney, who represented Warner Bros., said he
was disappointed but not surprised by the ruling, which will be
. ~ppealed.
··, "I continue to remain very optimistic;· Feeney said. "The
' ~ou):t's decision doesn't change our 'view on the law in Michi, .gan. We're going to present all of .those views to the Court of
·Appeals. The case should never have been sent to a jury in the
first place." ·

BY TERESA M. WALKER
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) - A
year of waiting for a chance at
redemption finally is over for the
Tennessee Lady Vols.
Tamika CatchinS' scored 28
points as top-seeded Tennessee
beat Virginia 77-56 S~turday in
the Mideast Regional semifinals
of the NCAA women's tournament. Now the LadyVols hope to
erase the disappointlnent of last
year's East championship loss to
Duke, which cost them a chance
~t a fourth straight national tide.
"We've tried for a year to be
playing on Monday night to get
to a Final Four," Tennessee coach
Pat Summitt said.
' "They've worked hard. The
freshmen may not understand
how much we wanted to be in
that game. We don't care who we

thing Domhitt has never seen at

Concerns for the ream incl ude
pitching experience and overall

"The pitching needs to improve
and o ur pitchers need to pitch

Douthitt. "Addi ti ona lly, we only

are very you ng." ·
In th e league, Douthitt picks

The Big Ten has made a groat splash in
the elite eight of the NCAA Tournament.
Michigan State may be the first conference school ro make it to two consecutive final fours since the F~b Five of
Michigan did in the early '90s.
The NCAA tournament committee
and the l» Vegas oddsmakers need to
conte to son1e sort of agreement. Sure, I
know there is no gambling ,on college
athletics for members of the committee ..
But don 't these oddsmakers know a
t~ing or two about sports?

"If we can stay away from hitting

Johnson .
Fielding-wise, defense will be a
strength. A major concern is that
the injury bug doesn't hit due .to
the lack of numbers .
Johnson said in summary, "We·

Soud1en1 softball crew seekS to craCk .500 mark with new coach...
••
RACINE The Southern
softball squad has been working
very hard in preparation for the
,upcoming 2000 season, which
begins Monday, against league foe
Alexander at Star Mill Park in
Racine.
Graduated from last year's club
is All- TVC and AII-D1stnct player
Kim Sayre, who was one of the
top pitchers in southe-astern Ohio
over the past three years. Also
gone are Reg~na Manuel, Kara
King and catcher Ashli DaviS.
· All four players will be greatly
missed, especially since Davis and
Sayre compnsed the Southern
battery. Another player d1d not
play this year.
Last year, Southern fimshed at
10-12.
Scott Wolfe, former Eastern
baseball coach, wtll ass ume varsity
duties fo r the first tune takmg over
for multi- time Coach of the Year
How1e CaldweU.
"We hope to contun le th e ncb
So uther n softball tradmon th.lt
Coac h Caldwell developed here a't
Southern ," said Wolfe.
Wolfe's baseball. teams have won
two sectiona l utles. two Southern
Valley Athletic Conference championships, a district championship,
and a regmnal berth ·as one of
Ohio's Sweet 16
He hopes to be able to duplicate
the feat at Southern.
Returning to the Southern
lineup are two-year letter wmners
and seniors Kim lhle and Stacy
Lyons, who anchor the middle
mfield at second and shortstop
respectively. Both are talented
fielders with good range.
H eather Dailey will be the startmg catcher in 2000, after spendmg
time at DH and first base last season. Semor Laraine Lawson and
junior Fallon Roush are returnees
m the outfield, where they hope
to unhze their speed defensively.
Getting the nod in nght field
will be either Tammy Fryar . or
Macyn Ervin, two JUniors that
hope to bolster the SH S hue-up.
J umor E nn ly Sttvt'rs w1ll anchor
third base, whi le anorh~r JLmior
Kati Cummins is on the other
cornl! r. at first.
M ost likely senior Sarah Brauer
will be the number one pitcher,
after three good years of reserve
ball. Bra uer has had a good spnng,
improvmg 'both her speed and
location.
Stacy Lyons will also be available for relief pitching, while
freshnun Rachel Chapman will
get a few starting nods.
Stivers also can fill in as pitcher,
wh1le Brigette Barnes, Stacey
Mills and Brandi Lane have been
working out on the mound to
land reserve roles. Barnes, Chapman, and Mills w1ll be available for
JUSt about any position, while
jumor M ia Bass will be a replacement outfielder.
"We have e~cellent speed;' said
Wolfe. "We hope to be aggressive
on the basepaths and an exciting
tea m to watch. We also are pretty
sound defensively, however, we are
inexperienced at some posiupns
and that m ight show early in the
·season.
"Pitching is everythmg. 1t IS
your best defense, bu t we don't
have any vats1ty pitchi ng expen ence, none," he added. "So wt!''vc
had a strong spring working with
our pitchers. I think o ur personnel
can· do the JOb, but right now they
have to remain focused and have
confidence. Beheving 111 yourself
goes along way in being successful
on the mound ."
Southern has had a good spring
for hitting and has taken advantage of that. Two top hitters in
Lawson and !hie return. Wolfe
indicated that the line-up ought
to be solid all the way through the
order.
"We've been nuking good contact," he said. "How quick we
compensate for the experience we
lost will determine what kind of
season we will ha~e. T he girls have
had a great attitude and that is half
the battle."
Wolfe hopes to have at least a
. 500 season, but feels his team can
contend for an upper division fin ish.
Waterford is the favorite to win
the league after returning most
ewry player from its 20-3 team
from last year. Federal Hoc kmg
and Eastern W lll contend fo r an
upper dwlSlo n fi msh as their talent
develops.
M e1gs, Wellston and Belpre will
again be .tough in the Ohio Diviston.
Jeremy Hill, the JUmor varsity
coach, w ill assist Wolfe th1s season.

Soud1en1 softball crew seekS to craCk .500 mark with new coach...
••
RACINE The Southern
softball squad has been working
very hard in preparation for the
,upcoming 2000 season, which
begins Monday, against league foe
Alexander at Star Mill Park in
Racine.
Graduated from last year's club
is All- TVC and AII-D1stnct player
Kim Sayre, who was one of the
top pitchers in southe-astern Ohio
over the past three years. Also
gone are Reg~na Manuel, Kara
King and catcher Ashli DaviS.
· All four players will be greatly
missed, especially since Davis and
Sayre compnsed the Southern
battery. Another player d1d not
play this year.
Last year, Southern fimshed at
10-12.
Scott Wolfe, former Eastern
baseball coach, wtll ass ume varsity
duties fo r the first tune takmg over
for multi- time Coach of the Year
How1e CaldweU.
"We hope to contun le th e ncb

Southern ," said Wolfe.
Wolfe's baseball. teams have won
two sectiona l utles. two Southern
Valley Athletic Conference championships, a district championship,
and a regmnal berth ·as one of
Ohio's Sweet 16
He hopes to be able to duplicate
the feat at Southern.
Returning to the Southern
lineup are two-year letter wmners
and seniors Kim lhle and Stacy
Lyons, who anchor the middle
mfield at second and shortstop
respectively. Both are talented
fielders with good range.
H eather Dailey will be the startmg catcher in 2000, after spendmg
time at DH and first base last season. Semor Laraine Lawson and
junior Fallon Roush are returnees
m the outfield, where they hope
to unhze their speed defensively.
Getting the nod in nght field
will be either Tammy Fryar . or
Macyn Ervin, two JUniors that
hope to bolster the SH S hue-up.
J umor E nn ly Sttvt'rs w1ll anchor
third base, whi le anorh~r JLmior
Kati Cummins is on the other
cornl! r. at first.
M ost likely senior Sarah Brauer
will be the number one pitcher,
after three good years of reserve
ball. Bra uer has had a good spnng,
improvmg 'both her speed and
location.
Stacy Lyons will also be available for relief pitching, while
freshnun Rachel Chapman will
get a few starting nods.
Stivers also can fill in as pitcher,
wh1le Brigette Barnes, Stacey
Mills and Brandi Lane have been
working out on the mound to
land reserve roles. Barnes, Chapman, and Mills w1ll be available for
JUSt about any position, while
jumor M ia Bass will be a replacement outfielder.
"We have e~cellent speed;' said
Wolfe. "We hope to be aggressive
on the basepaths and an exciting
tea m to watch. We also are pretty
sound defensively, however, we are
inexperienced at some posiupns
and that m ight show early in the
·season.
"Pitching is everythmg. 1t IS
your best defense, bu t we don't
have any vats1ty pitchi ng expen ence, none," he added. "So wt!''vc
had a strong spring working with
our pitchers. I think o ur personnel
can· do the JOb, but right now they
have to remain focused and have
confidence. Beheving 111 yourself
goes along way in being successful
on the mound ."
Southern has had a good spring
for hitting and has taken advantage of that. Two top hitters in
Lawson and !hie return. Wolfe
indicated that the line-up ought
to be solid all the way through the
order.
"We've been nuking good contact," he said. "How quick we
compensate for the experience we
lost will determine what kind of
season we will ha~e. T he girls have
had a great attitude and that is half
the battle."
Wolfe hopes to have at least a
. 500 season, but feels his team can
contend for an upper division fin ish.
Waterford is the favorite to win
the league after returning most
ewry player from its 20-3 team
from last year. Federal Hoc kmg
and Eastern W lll contend fo r an
upper dwlSlo n fi msh as their talent
develops.
M e1gs, Wellston and Belpre will
again be .tough in the Ohio Diviston.

coach, w ill assist Wolfe th1s season.

Dear Anp . Landers: You recently
printed a letter from Margaret Murphy
Peterson, national legislative director for
the qold Star Wives of America.· Ms.
Peterson praised Togo D. West Jr., secretary ofVeterans Affairs, who .w rote to yolt
:about. war widows . receiving new DlC
benefits. In her letter, Ms. Peterson said
that "all war widows are now entitled to
receive monthly DIC'' compensation. I
am concerned that this may have been
unintentionally misleading, and I hope
my letter can' clear things up.
The Dependency and Indemnity
Compensation (DIC) is paid to the surviving spouse only when the death of the
veteran ~ioppened while he or she was on
active duty, or if the death was in some
wav associated with a recognized serviceconnected disease or injury. ·
1.1 the past, if a war widow remarried
foLowing the death of the veteran, she
'Ya ' harred from receiving DIC benefits..
T he tecent change mentioned in M~.
':Pctcr<u ll's letter is that this benefit will
~nee again be paid to those surviving
·~pau ses if the subsequent marriage was
~~p~in~ted by death or divorce. For more
' 11\forll.!ation, readers can contact the VA:s
to'llltree number, 1-800-827-1000, ana
spe~k to a veterans benefits counselor. : ·

CLAIMS SERVICE, VETERANS OF
FOREIGN WARS, FT. SNELLING,
MINN;
DEAR THOMAS L. HANSON:
Thank you so m!lch for yonr excellent
explanation. I received many letters from
war widows who thought they were eligible for ore benefits, when in fact, they
were not.. I received an equal number of
letters from widows who were thrilled to
discover they could have their DIC benefits reinstated. My thanks to all who
wrote, and my apologies for any unclear
mformation.
Dear Ann Landers: Here's another
one for your "stupid crooks" collection·.
The .story was written by Bar~holomew
Sullivan, and appeared in the Memphis
Commercial Appeal. I hope you think it's

DEAR K.G.:· I do. Thanks for a good
laugh:
West Memphis police said a 42-yearoid man, sitting in a wheelchair, rolled
into an ice-cream parlor just before 6
p.m.; and ordered a hamburger. While the
burger sizzled, he indicated he had .'a gun
under his jacket, and handed the waittess
a noteJrinted on the back of his own
person check. The inarticulate message
read: "Don't Push. No Puling: If You
Don't to Get Hurt.'·'
Whatever its meaning, the waitress
handed the man fistful of $5 and $1 0
bills from the cash register. The robber
then wheeled around and was out the
door. Someone dialed 911. When the
·robber saw the police, he ditched the
wheelChair and ran. The man was booked
on·aggravated robbery charges.

Dear Anp . Landers: You recently
printed a letter from Margaret Murphy
Peterson, national legislative director for
the qold Star Wives of America.· Ms.
Peterson praised Togo D. West Jr., secretary ofVeterans Affairs, who .w rote to yolt
:about. war widows . receiving new DlC
benefits. In her letter, Ms. Peterson said
that "all war widows are now entitled to
receive monthly DIC'' compensation. I
am concerned that this may have been
unintentionally misleading, and I hope
my letter can' clear things up.
The Dependency and Indemnity
Compensation (DIC) is paid to the surviving spouse only when the death of the
veteran ~ioppened while he or she was on
active duty, or if the death was in some
wav associated with a recognized serviceconnected disease or injury. ·
1.1 the past, if a war widow remarried
foLowing the death of the veteran, she
'Ya ' harred from receiving DIC benefits..
T he tecent change mentioned in M~.
':Pctcr<u ll's letter is that this benefit will
~nee again be paid to those surviving
·~pau ses if the subsequent marriage was
~~p~in~ted by death or divorce. For more
' 11\forll.!ation, readers can contact the VA:s
to'llltree number, 1-800-827-1000, ana
spe~k to a veterans benefits counselor. : ·

DEAR THOMAS L. HANSON:
Thank you so m!lch for yonr excellent
explanation. I received many letters from
war widows who thought they were eligible for ore benefits, when in fact, they
were not.. I received an equal number of
letters from widows who were thrilled to
discover they could have their DIC benefits reinstated. My thanks to all who
wrote, and my apologies for any unclear
mformation.
Dear Ann Landers: Here's another
one for your "stupid crooks" collection·.

DEAR K.G.:· I do. Thanks for a good

West Memphis police said a 42-yearoid man, sitting in a wheelchair, rolled
into an ice-cream parlor just before 6
p.m.; and ordered a hamburger. While the
burger sizzled, he indicated he had .'a gun
under his jacket, and handed the waittess
a noteJrinted on the back of his own
person check. The inarticulate message
read: "Don't Push. No Puling: If You
Don't to Get Hurt.'·'
Whatever its meaning, the waitress
handed the man fistful of $5 and $1 0
bills from the cash register. The robber
then wheeled around and was out the
door. Someone dialed 911. When the
·robber saw the police, he ditched the
wheelChair and ran. The man was booked
on·aggravated robbery charges.

A .Zook at the GARS music programs of the 1930's
'·
'.
While the county high schools in Gallia
County in the 1930's did not have :in
Aquarium Trio like Gallia Academy, they
still bad pretty good music programs . The
. Gallipolis trio, by the way, was composed
of Howard Waters, Beeman Fish and
' Wayne Trout, hence the name Aquarium
Trio.
' ' In the 1930's Gallia County high schools
for the fint time were given by the Coun. ty School Board music teachers. These
penons were called on to work in several
schools in the same year, since there was
·not enough money for every high school
, and grade school to have its own individual music teacher. The highlight of. the
year for ·the music programs of the county
high schools was the spring County Music
Festival.
For instance in 1938 the following
groups perf<;>rmed: Mercerville Girls' Glee
<;lub, Mercerville Mixed Chorus, Bidwell1'9rter Girls' Glee Club, Bidwell Porter
~nd Cheshire ·Mixed Chorus, Cheshire
virls' Glee Club, CenterviUeVinton Girls'
Glee Club, Centerville-Rio Grande
Mixed Chorus, Rio Grande Mixed Chorus, Cadmus Girls' Glee Club, ·County
Boys' Chorus, County Girls' Chorus and
i~e All County Mixed · Chorus with 130
voices. Some of the music selected had a
ta[her somber note t~ it: "When Soft Voicei Die," "Lord, I Cry To Thee," and "Night
In The Forest."
:. Many county high schools also had
orchestras and often the orchestras played
the Spring Music Festival. These groups
also performed at many school functions, '
i~cluding graduation. In the ·Jate 1930's
Vinton 'High School's orchestra and
~ing~rs presented an operetta for graduatjon. It was ·under the direction -of the
~usic teacher Miss Davis along with the
~ther high school teache'rs: Kathryn
Edmiston, Dewey Walker and George
Glenn. ·
·
: In 1937 the following were employed by
th,e County School Board as musk teachers: Mary Syler, Mae Ertel, Kimball Suiter,
Evelyn Pierson, Lois Fasig, and Dorothy
Titus.
: Mr. Suiter taught instrumental music at
Vinton, Rio Grande, Centerville, and Bid~ell-Porter High Schools. He Was a 1935
g'raduate of Ohio University a)ld began his
teaching at Chesapeake. Miss Pierson
ta.ught vocal music at Bidwellporter and at
Cheshire she taugllt both vocal and instrumental music. Miss Fasig was the County
Music Supervisor and she taught vocal
~sic at Mercerville' High School as well
~at all the grade schools in Addison and .
•
Eleanor )ones, Bernice Rucker, Lena Mae
Pope, Mary Lou Haynes and Carmon
Armstrong.
In May, 1935 Miss Fasig presented five
grade school programs in five different
communities in one week's time. The
grade school music programs were held at

Christian Church, Eno School, Kyger

If you're ·running out of space for your "good
'StUff", now's the time to sort it all out, save the best
and give away the rest. Ridding the clutter will
make you life easier, and give you a warm fuzzy
feeling from having helped someone else.
Every spring the Senior Citizens Center gathers
liP things for an inside yard sale and designates the
proceeds for some ·special project. This year it's to
,upgrade the Center's computer network and buy
.some new furniture for the social room.

A .Zook at the GARS music programs of the 1930's
'·
'.
While the county high schools in Gallia
County in the 1930's did not have :in
Aquarium Trio like Gallia Academy, they
still bad pretty good music programs . The
. Gallipolis trio, by the way, was composed
of Howard Waters, Beeman Fish and
' Wayne Trout, hence the name Aquarium
Trio.
' ' In the 1930's Gallia County high schools
for the fint time were given by the Coun. ty School Board music teachers. These
penons were called on to work in several
schools in the same year, since there was
·not enough money for every high school
, and grade school to have its own individual music teacher. The highlight of. the
year for ·the music programs of the county
high schools was the spring County Music
Festival.
For instance in 1938 the following
groups perf<;>rmed: Mercerville Girls' Glee
<;lub, Mercerville Mixed Chorus, Bidwell1'9rter Girls' Glee Club, Bidwell Porter
~nd Cheshire ·Mixed Chorus, Cheshire
virls' Glee Club, CenterviUeVinton Girls'
Glee Club, Centerville-Rio Grande
Mixed Chorus, Rio Grande Mixed Chorus, Cadmus Girls' Glee Club, ·County
Boys' Chorus, County Girls' Chorus and
i~e All County Mixed · Chorus with 130
voices. Some of the music selected had a
ta[her somber note t~ it: "When Soft Voicei Die," "Lord, I Cry To Thee," and "Night
In The Forest."
:. Many county high schools also had
orchestras and often the orchestras played
the Spring Music Festival. These groups
also performed at many school functions, '
i~cluding graduation. In the ·Jate 1930's
Vinton 'High School's orchestra and
~ing~rs presented an operetta for graduatjon. It was ·under the direction -of the
~usic teacher Miss Davis along with the
~ther high school teache'rs: Kathryn
Edmiston, Dewey Walker and George
Glenn. ·
·
: In 1937 the following were employed by
th,e County School Board as musk teachers: Mary Syler, Mae Ertel, Kimball Suiter,
Evelyn Pierson, Lois Fasig, and Dorothy
Titus.
: Mr. Suiter taught instrumental music at
Vinton, Rio Grande, Centerville, and Bid~ell-Porter High Schools. He Was a 1935
g'raduate of Ohio University a)ld began his
teaching at Chesapeake. Miss Pierson
ta.ught vocal music at Bidwellporter and at
Cheshire she taugllt both vocal and instrumental music. Miss Fasig was the County
Music Supervisor and she taught vocal
~sic at Mercerville' High School as well
~at all the grade schools in Addison and .
•
Eleanor )ones, Bernice Rucker, Lena Mae
Pope, Mary Lou Haynes and Carmon
Armstrong.
In May, 1935 Miss Fasig presented five
grade school programs in five different
communities in one week's time. The
grade school music programs were held at

If you're ·running out of space for your "good
'StUff", now's the time to sort it all out, save the best
and give away the rest. Ridding the clutter will
make you life easier, and give you a warm fuzzy
feeling from having helped someone else.
Every spring the Senior Citizens Center gathers
liP things for an inside yard sale and designates the
proceeds for some ·special project. This year it's to
,upgrade the Center's computer network and buy
.some new furniture for the social room.
, If you have things to give, just take then to Cen, ter or call for a pickup, 992-2106. The sale will be

held on May 5 and items for it are already being

Sometimes you·
can't eat just one
BY BECKY COWNS
• GALLIPOLIS Have you
:·ever left an all-you-can-eat buf. fet feeling like a blimp, having
:been seduced by the variety of
:roods and the pleasure of eating?
:· Okay, stupid question. With
:each taste of a new food, your ·
; taste buds were piqued and your
; enjoyment encouraged you to
;"eat on."
• Finally, having consumed all
:you could eat, you stopped. You
:were sated.
: Satiety generally means a sense
:of fullness or being done with
;eating. But unlike the satisfaction
;you get from eating a variety of
:foods, "sensory-specific satiety"
But add a couple different kinds·
of meats, pasta, salads, veggies, .
breads and desserts, and you can
graze there for much longer.
Variety and balance offood are
the hallmarks of healthy eating as
highlighted in the USDA's
Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
You · can achieve. a healthy,
nutritious eating pattern by
choosing food combinations
from the five food groups of the
Food Guide Pyramid: bread and
grains, fruits, vegetables, dairy,
and meat and beans.
And you've heard it before, it's
the variety that provides the
unique offering of nutrients and ·
other beneficial substances.
Some vegetabies and fruits are
good sources of vitamins C and
A, while others have folate, calcium and iron.
On the other hand, sensoryspecific satiety can work to' our
detriment by increasing the .
amount of food eaten during
those 'tiines w~en we are prone
to overeating.
Do you ever have those times
that you can't seem to get satisfied?
You eat the chips, move on to
the cookies, then crackers, then
froze.n egg rolls . - ·noth,i ng
seems to "hit the spot." When we
eat just one food at a time, it's
hard to know when to stop.
Knowing more about how our
appetite and sariery affect our
eating behaviors can help us be
more conscious of increasing ciur
variety.
· Those who are overweight
should stop and consider that the ·
extra piece of chocolate ·won't
necessarily add to our appreciation. of its taste.
.
Those who are planning meals ,
for senior citizens should
remember that by offering many
different types of foods, you ·can
help increase their intake of the
important foods they need.
'OCcurs when our sense of plea'
~ sure decreases as we continue to
:eat a certain food .

••
Sometimes you·
can't eat just one
BY BECKY COWNS
• GALLIPOLIS Have you
:·ever left an all-you-can-eat buf. fet feeling like a blimp, having
:been seduced by the variety of
:roods and the pleasure of eating?
:· Okay, stupid question. With
:each taste of a new food, your ·
; taste buds were piqued and your
; enjoyment encouraged you to
;"eat on."
• Finally, having consumed all
:you could eat, you stopped. You
:were sated.
: Satiety generally means a sense
:of fullness or being done with
;eating. But unlike the satisfaction
;you get from eating a variety of
:foods, "sensory-specific satiety"
But add a couple different kinds·
of meats, pasta, salads, veggies, .
breads and desserts, and you can
graze there for much longer.
Variety and balance offood are
the hallmarks of healthy eating as
highlighted in the USDA's
Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
You · can achieve. a healthy,
nutritious eating pattern by
choosing food combinations
from the five food groups of the
Food Guide Pyramid: bread and
grains, fruits, vegetables, dairy,
and meat and beans.
And you've heard it before, it's
the variety that provides the
unique offering of nutrients and ·
other beneficial substances.
Some vegetabies and fruits are
good sources of vitamins C and
A, while others have folate, calcium and iron.
On the other hand, sensoryspecific satiety can work to' our
detriment by increasing the .
amount of food eaten during
those 'tiines w~en we are prone
to overeating.
Do you ever have those times
that you can't seem to get satisfied?
You eat the chips, move on to
the cookies, then crackers, then
froze.n egg rolls . - ·noth,i ng
seems to "hit the spot." When we
eat just one food at a time, it's
hard to know when to stop.
Knowing more about how our
appetite and sariery affect our
eating behaviors can help us be
more conscious of increasing ciur
variety.
· Those who are overweight
should stop and consider that the ·
extra piece of chocolate ·won't
necessarily add to our appreciation. of its taste.
.
Those who are planning meals ,
for senior citizens should
remember that by offering many
different types of foods, you ·can
help increase their intake of the
important foods they need.
'OCcurs when our sense of plea'
~ sure decreases as we continue to
:eat a certain food .
: For example, if we eat a box ~f
:chocolates until 'we're full , the
:pleasure of chocolate's taste,
:smell and texture will decline
;with each bite.
: The same occurs with a bag of
;chips. It's hard to eat just one, yet
. ;the pleasure decreases the more
;we eat.We keep hoping ihe next
;Piece will taste as good as the
· ,first. It never will, but we 'keep
t rying.
: Have you ever noticed that the
second plate at the Chinese buffet never tastes. as good as the
lirst?
·
' How can we overcome the
~hallenge of "you can't eat just
one"?
.
.
Recent research looking into
the intricacies of appetite and
satiety shows that sensory-specific satiety - in other words, eat-'
ing just one thing until you're
tired of it - ·can be beneficial
because it encourages us to eat a
variety of foods and a balanced
diet.
The more variety of food, the
more pleuant' taste sensations,
and the more f®da eaten.
That's why buffets are so popular. ·
You can eat lou of different
kinds of foodt until you're full.
(Btcky Collim is Gallia Co1111ty~ ·

COLUMBUS (AP) -· While
Ohio lawmakers try to find
ways to regulate industrial-size
livesto ck farms, state records
show manure .spills at ·smaller ·,
farms are more often .responsi- ·
ble for killing fish.
An analysis of st ate, re cords,
compiled by the Ohio Division
ofWildlife at the t:equest ofTh~
Columbus Dispatch for a start
Sunday, shows there were 16
spills from small er farms ~>Ver
the past five years that kille~
fish.
•
At the same tiine, there were
two fish kills from manure spill!
at big livestock operations - ,
both by Buckeye Egg in Lic king
County. ·
But environmentalists say fish
kills tell o nly part. of the story. ·
They say large livestock farms
have the potential to leach pollution into streams over a long
period of time without killing·
fish.
·
.
,
"Just ~ecause · there isn•t ~
large fish 'kill doesn 't necessarily
mean there are not water quality threats," said Jeff Skelding of
the Ohio Environmental Council. "Because of th e nature of the
ope.:ations and ihe conc en t ration of wastes at th ese facilities ,
our co nc ern is that . we'd have'
more chronic pollution thai: is
n:tore insidious."
.
Farmers say the number of
, spills over five years is SJ,Ilall
giv~n,. that there :ire more. ~h1!)1 ,
'40,000 livestoc k farms in Ohio
and imposing stricter regula- • ·
tions that the .U.S. Environmental Protection Agency wants will
not change that.
Brya n Black, a Pickaway
C ounty farmer who has 300
· sows that produce 6,500 pigs
each yea r, said the data comes as
rto surprise to him.
"If your going to have a
problem , it's going to be one of
the smaller guys who hasn't kept
up," said Black, whose farm isn't
larg-e enough for the Ohio EPA ·
to require a permit that would
force him to create a manure ~
management plan. He lias a plan,
anyway · and recently has
changed the way he spreads hog
'
manure.
For the most part, small farms
don't cause problems, said Kevin
'Elder, project coordinator for
the Ohio Division of Soil and
Wat.e r Conservation, which
monitors smaller farms' along
with local soil conservation
groups.
.
Elder ~aid his group receives
about 300 complaints, ~lating co
agricultural pollution' each year
and about half are valid. When
farmers won't correct ·p roblems. " ..
the : divisiop can take them tt. ,
court, he said .
