Regardless of public outcry and a vote by the Mason County Commission rescinding their suppo1t of tolling the highway, it was decided that tolls will fund the completion of U.S. 35.

POMEROY Collection of Meigs County's sales tax was nearly $20,000 more for the final month of 20 10 than it was a year ago, at a time when county com: missioners look to that revenue source for yearend cash flow. As commtsswners begin meeting with county officeholders as an early part of the 2011 budgeting process, the increase in collections is a positive indicator. According to the latest sales tax comparison issued by County Auditor Mary Byer-Hill, collection of the one-percent local sales tax was up in October when compared to revenue from a year ago, completing a yearend trend that saw oqly two months below collections of a year prior. The county receives its sales tax payment two months behind collections. but this latest, 'received last week, will be the last the county receives in 2010.

Owned by local artist Michele Musser, the inspiration of the store lies in Ecclesiastes 3:1 which reminds us all there is a time and season for everything. For Musser, this year , she was going through a season where she knew she wanted to paint but wasn't sure how or where - she had been doing a Jot of specialty painting at home in her garage. The opening of a small business for her has been a spiritual experience. "I never planned it (opening the store), God planned it," Musser said, saying the inspiration came from prayers.

POMEROY -A whooping cough outbreak in Franklin County has yet to travel south into Meigs County, according to Sherry Wilcox, director of nursing for the Meigs County Health Department.

CALDWELL ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON Moving to crack down on gun smugglers, the federal agency that monitors weapons sales is asking the White House for emergency authority to require that dealers near the Mexican border report multiple purchases of high powered rifles. According to a notice published Friday in the Federal Register, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco. Firearms and Explosives has asked the White House to approve a requirement tha! border- area gun dealers report the '>ales of two or more rifles to the same customer within a five-day period. . The move by ATF. intended to help Mexican authorities in their campaign against violent drug gangs, is likely to face stiff opposition from gun rights advocates. "This is nothing more than a political policy that seems to be based more on Mexico blaming the United states for Mexico's problems," said Chris Cox, the NRA's chief lobbyist. "To focus the efforts on law abiding gun owners is not a seri- ous approach. It won't do anything to disrupt a multibillion dollar criminal enterprise." The proposal was first by the reported Washington Post. Scot Thomasson, ATF's chief spokesman. said the agency expects to the plan to be approved and implemented. ATF wants the White House Office of Management and Budget to sign off on its request by Jan. 5. High-powered rifles have become the weapon of choice for Mexico's warring drug cartels. More than 30,000 people have been killed in Mexico's drug war since President Felipe Calderon launched an offensive against the powerful drug gangs shortly after taking office in late 2006. Officials on both sides of the border have said these types of weapons are routinely bought legally in the United States and then smuggled Mexico, where into firearms sales are highly restricted. The propo$ed reporting requirement would apply to sales of two or more semi-automatic guns more powerful than .22-caliber rifles tbat use a detachable magazine. ATF tracks weapons found in Mexico and has tied tens of thousands of recovered guns to U.S. dealers, but the agency has been criticized for not doing enough to curb the flow of guns. The new reporting requirement, which mirrors one already in place for handguns and revolvers, would be the "greatest investigative tool to identify firearms traffickers," T homasson said. Last month, a report by the Justice Department's inspector general criticized the agency's Operation Gunrunner as being narrowly focused on individual gun buyers and not larger smuggling organizations believed responsible for significant numbers of guns being shipped across the . border. The.proposed reporting requirement on multiple sales was among several recommendations made by the inspector general, Thomasson said. If approved by the White House, the new requirement would affect nearly 8,500 border-area gun dealers in Arizona, California, New Mexico and Texas and be in place for 180 days. . U.S. gas demand should fall for good after '06 peak Bv JoNATHAN FAHEY ASSOOATED PRESS NEW YORK - The world's biggest gas-guzzling nation has limits after all. After seven decades of mostly uninterrupted growth, U.S. gasoline demand is at the start of a long-term decline. By 2030, Americans will bum at least 20 percent less gasoline than today, experts say. even as millions of more cars clog the roads. The country's thirst for gasoline is shrinking as cars and trucks become more fuel-efficient, the government mandates the use of more ethanol and people drive less. "A combination of demographic change and policy change means the heady days of gasoline growing in the U.S. are over," says Daniel Yergin, chairman of IHS Cambridge Energy Research Associates and author of a Pulitzer Prizewinning history of the oil industry. This isn't the first time in U.S. history that gasoline demand has fallen, at least temporarily. Drivers typically cut back during recessions, then hit the road again when the economy picks up. Indeed, the Great Recession was the chief reason demand fell sharply in 2008. But this time looks different. Government and industry officials including the CEO of Exxon Mobil- say U.S. gasoline demand has peaked for good. It has declined four years in a row and will not reach the 2006 level again, even when the economy fully recovers. In fact, the ground was shifting before the recession. The 2001 terrorist attacks. the war in Iraq, Hun·icane Katrina and pwnp prices rising to a nationwide average of $3 a gallon for the first time in a generation reignited public debates about the political and economic effects of oil imports and climate change. Also, the popularity of SUVs began to wane, and the government started requiring refiners to blend com-based ethanol into every gallon of gasoline. Americans are burning an average of 8.2 million barrels - 344 million gallons - of gasoline per day in 2010, a figure that excludes the ethanol blended into gasoline. That's 8 percent less than at the 2006 peak, according to government data. The decline is expected to accelerate for several reasons. • Starting with the 2012 model year, cars will have to hit a higher fuel economy target for the first time since 1990. Each carmaker's fleet must average 30.1 mpg, up from 27.5. By the 2016 model year, that nwnber must rise to 35.5 mpg. And, starting next year, SUVs and minivans, once classified as trucks. will count toward passenger vehicle targets. • The auto industry is introducing cars that run partially or entirely on electricity, and the federal government is providing billions of dollars in subsidies to increase production and spur sales. • By 2022, the country's fuel mix must include 36 billion gallons of ethanol and other biofuels, up from 14 billion gallons in 2011. Put another way, biofuels will account for roughly one of every four gallons sold at the pwnp. • Gasoline prices are forecast to stay high as developing economies in Asia and the Middle East use more oil. There are demographic factors at work, too. Baby boomers will drive less as they age. The surge of women entering the work force and commuting in recent decades has leveled off. And the era of Americans commuting ever farther distances appears to be over. One measure of this, vehicle miles traveled per licensed driver, began to flatten in the middle of the last decade after years of sharp growth. "People wildly underestimate the effect that all this is going to have" on gasoline demand, says Paul Sankey, an analyst at Deutsche Bank. Sankey predicts by 2030 America will use just 5.4 million parrels a day, the same as in 1969. Aaron Brady, an analyst at CERA, predicts a more modest drop, to 6.6 million barrels a day. As a result, families will spend less on fuel, the country's dependence on foreign oil will wane and heat-trapping emissions of carbon dioxide will grow more slowly. The shift from SUVs began in 2004 and has saved Americans $15 billion on gasoline this year, according to the National Resources Defense Council. By 2020, improved fuel economy is expected to lower annual carbon dioxide emissions by 400 billion pounds, the equivalent of taking 32 million cars off the road. In reality, there will be' 27 million more cars on the road - a total of 254 million - a decade from now. according to government projections. Environmentalists are looking at the trend with a mixture of disbelief and delight. A decade ago they thought demand would continue to grow 1-2 percent a year far into the future. "Now you look and, wow, we've actually bent the curve," says Roland Hwang, transportation director at the Natural Resources Defense Council. There are scenarios that, while unlikely, could tern- porarily upend the longterm trend. If the U.S. economy booms and global oil prices fall. demand for gasoline could rise. "Sometimes what we think is a structural shift is. really just a temporary phase," says Antoine Halff, an analyst at the brokerage firm Newedge. "U.S. demand has rebounded with a vengeance before.'' To be sure, America will continue to burn more gasoline than any other country. in total and per capita, for decades to come. China is second in total consumption, but, despite its explosive growth, still uses just half of what the U.S. uses. Canada is second in consumption per capita but is on its own path toward a more fuel-efficient economy. While America's diminishing demand will temper global demand, it will be more than offset by rapidly growing demand in China, India, the Middle East and Africa.• As a result, declining U.S gasoline demand will not bting lower pump prices. New govs take office amid historic budget crisis BY BETH FOUHY ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK - New York's inconung governor, Democrat Andrew Cuomo, says he won't raise taxes even though he will inherit a budget deficit of at least $9 billion when he takes office in January.' Ohio Republican Gov.elect John Kasich is promising to cut taxes, · despite a shortfall of about $8 billion. And in California, incoming Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown - who ardently pursued innovative clean energy and environmental protection programs during his first stint in office, in the revenue- u.s. 35 From Page A1 hearing." Gene Zopp of Gallipolis Ferry, who has been very vocal against the tolls, also encouraged other residents to attend the meeting and voice their concerns. Zopp, like many Mason Countians, wants to see the completion of U.S. 35 become a reality, however. he believes tolling is not the way to fund the · remaining 14.6 miles of highway. He said that he sees three possibilities in stopping the tolls. "The West Virginia Legislature can step in and enforce the intent of SB 427 for the people to be able to say "no" and deny (Parkways Authority) the toll proposal. Will our legislatures stand up for the people who elected them'? I don't know. 1 have personally written each legislature making that request,'' Zopp said. 'The voices of Mason County residents in the Dec. 27 public hearing civilly saying. 'no' to Parkways Authority (could stop the rich 1970s and '80s will have to figure out this time how to close a budget gap projected at more than $25 billion. Twenty-six states elected new governors last month - 17 Republicans, eight Democrats and one independent - and now they are going to have to reconcile their principles and campaign promises with some harsh fiscal realities: This is the worst budget climate for the states in at least a generation. Cumulatively, . the states face budget shortfalls of nearly $140 billion next year, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a Washington think tank. To make matters worse, billions in aid to states from the federal government's $800 billion stimulus plan is set to dry up early next year. The incoming governors face some paint;ul and politically unpopular decisions, with the easy fixes long gone. Among the unsavory alternatives: tax increases or deep cuts in programs voters hold dear, such as education, public safety and health care. ''I think we have to be realistic with the people of South Carolina: This is gonna hurt," said Republican Nikki Haley, South Carolina's incoming governor. She has ruled out raising taxes or increasing fees for such things as hunting, fishing and drivers' licenses. Bob Williams of the conservative think tank State Budget Solutions said new governors will be able to take a fresh look at the proper role of state government. "You have to redesign and refocus state governments around what are the real functions of state government. If it's not a core function, don't do it," he said. But even that prescription doesn't give governors much room to maneuver. A study by the Pew Center on the States and the Public Policy Institute of California of five fiscally troubled states found voters believe education and health care are the core functions of government and should not be cut, even though they eat up a majority of most state budgets - in some cases up to two-thirds of all spendmg. At least nine incoming governors have pledged not to raise taxes to close their states' budget gaps. All but Cuomo are Republicans. Nick Johnson, director of state and local programs for the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, said they may have to reconsider that pledge when campaigning gives way to governing. ''You saw a lot of candidates promising deep cuts in spending, but few of them were very specific in what they would cut,'' he said. "The key is to put everything on the table, and that includes the revenue side." That's the message Connecticut's incoming Democratic governor, Dan Malloy, is conveying. The former Stamford mayor said he will have to raise taxes and cut services to. close a projected $3.5 billion shortfall, one of the largest of any state A as a percentage of itsW overall budget. tolls). I encourage our residents to attend and sign up to make a public statement. That portion of the hearing begins at 6 p.m. at the courthouse, but you need to sign up to be heard and/or you can put your comment in writing and submit it. "Residents need to be pointed, plain and fum. Remember, we are a Christian people; the use of shouting or expletives or uncontrolled anger will only hurt our cause," Zopp added. "Charleston is trying to paint us as rude and bullies. However, I feel we are the ones being bullied to just shut up and roll over on this issue. I also feel we have been vocal. but civil in opposing this travesty." Zopp also said that civil action could be taken in circuit court by charging the parkways authority with •·fraudulent inducement." "It is worth the effort and expense to try to have the vote declared "null and void" to the parkways authority and force them to come to our county commissioners for approval or denial again after the required public hearings and full disclosure regarding tolling this road. The West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals has denied us the right to a rescinded re-vote, but they have not denied us the right to have the first vote nullified based on fraudulent inducement," he added. While many are upset with the tolls, some residents are pleased that U.S. 35 is now closer to completion. Following the supreme court's decision to allow the parkways authority to continue with the U.S. 35 public hearings, Charles Lanham, member of the local U.S. 35 Advisory Council, said that he was happy to see plans for the highway move forward. "I won't speak for the U.S. 35 committee, but I am pleased that we were able to get a decision and direction that we can go on to get Rte. 35 to be a fourthat's lane highway always been our goal," Lanham said.

The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution Home for the Holidays BY PAMELA K. MATURA AREA AGENCY ON AGING DISTRICT 7 "Oh, t~ere's no ~lace like home fo~ the holidays." There 1s somethmg about the holiday season that takes our hea1t and mind to thoughts of home and memories of Christmases past. Maybe it's a special meal, the scent· of Christmas cookies bakincr in the oven, or a holiday tradition that makes yo~ smile. No matter the memory, the holidays often lead us home to connect with family and friends. As baby boomers, going home often means reconnecting with aging parents and relatives. Maybe we haven't had a c~ance to visit often throughout the year due to our hectic schedules or because we live out of town. Maybe we see our family quite often but have more time to "just visit" during the holiday season. E!t~er way, a~ult children may find that when they VlSlt, they notice that Mom or Dad's health mi.crht be declining. and they become concerned and sen;e that their relative could use some assistance in maintaining their safety and quality of life in their own home. Some signs to watch for that may indicate your loved one needs some assistance to remain in their home safely: • A decline in personal hygiene. Your loved one may not feel up. to completing daily hygiene or may seem to be unaware of hygiene needs. . • Dif~kulty man_aging medications. You may notice p1Ils lymg around 111 unusual places, unfilled prescriptions or empty pill bottles. • Falls or near falls, with or without injury. • Increased clutter in the home or a general Jack of cleanliness of the living environment. • Outdated and spoiled food in the refrigerator. • Difficulty cooking or preparing meals. This can include problems following recipes or directions, burned food, lack of awareness of whether they have eaten, lack of appetite, or reliance on "junk food" that requires no preparation. • Difficulty keeping track of personal schedules, especially missing medical appointments. • Difficulty managing finances. You may notice bills piled up but unpaid, overdue bills, overdrawn checking accounts, lack of budgeting. • Decreased interest in previous hobbies and friendships. • A general decline in physical health. They may have lost weight and appear more frail. You may notice bruising or other injuries, increased forgetfulness, or less stamina for daily activities. If you decide that help is needed, the Area Acrency on Aging District 7 is here to help. Our staff is ~vail­ able to provide information and answer questions about a number of care needs and options that are available. After speaking with a specially trained nurse or social worker concerning your family member's needs, an in-home consultation to assess your loved one's situation will be provided at no cost to identify risks and determine what assistance or preventive measures could improve their quality of life. So, as you return "home for the holidays," we encourage you to spend quality time with your aging loved ones. Take the time to share special memories over a cup of tea or cocoa. Offer to take them for a ride to view the Christmas lights or attend a Christmas conce1t. As you enjoy your time together, be alert for the warning signs listed above and call our Agency at (800) 582-7277 if we can be of assistance. Christmas at_ Katyn BY PAUL KENGOR The people of Poland got an early Christmas present this year. It's bittersweet but long awaited, and indeed a gift of sorts - and from an unlikely source: Russia. In Moscow, the State Duma, Russia's legislature, passed a statement conceding Soviet responsibility for the Katyn Woods massacre, one of the 20th century's worst war crimes. The roots of this atrocity date to September 1939, when the Nazis and Bolsheviks jointly invaded, annihilated, and partitioned Poland. The Soviets seized thousands of Polish military officers as prisoners. Their fate was sealed on March 5, 1940 when Stalin signed their death warrant, condemning 21.857 of them to '"the supreme penalty: shooting.'' This we now know conclusively through the surviving NVKD document. The officers were taken to three execution sites, the most infamous of which bears the namesake of the crime: the Katyn Forest, 12 miles west of Smolensk, Russia. There, these Polish men were slaughtered. The Bolsheviks covered their crime with a layer of ditt. The apology from the Duma was something Poles waited decades to hear. It was something many of us who have studied and written about this incident have waited to hear. And it is too bad that Franklin Delano Roosevelt is not around to hear it. FDR '? Yes, FDR. Let me explain. The Katyn massacre was first exposed by the Nazis in April 1943. By then, the Nazis had betrayed the Hitler-Stalin "NonAggression" Pact. They discovered the mass graves, and immediately converted the atrocity into a propaganda coup to split the Big Three Allies. The Soviets, in turn, claimed the Nazis had done the crime.

Stuck in between was the civilized world, which sought to determine which devil did the deed. FDR was among those stuck in between. Where would he stand? Truth be told, FDR, who was terrific in stopping Hitler, was terribly naive in assessing Stalin. He was often inclined to give ''Uncle Joe" the benefit of the doubt. Nonetheless, he realized the need to take a .close look. Thus, he dispatched George Earle, former Democratic governor of Pennsylvania, and a war hero, as special emissary to investigate Katyn. Tn short order, Earle discerned the obvious, which was not what FDR wanted to hear. Not only had the president made it a habit to turn a blind eye toward things anti-Russian and anti-Stalin, but he needed Russia and Stalin to help vanquish the Nazis. This killing field created by America's wartime ally would not look good to the American public. Earle made his case: "About this Katyn massacre. Mr. President. I just cannot believe that the American president and so many people still think it is a mystery or have any doubt about it. Here are these pictures. Here are these affidavits and here is the invitation uf llu:: Gt:nuau guvt:rument to let the neutral Red Cross go in there and make their examination. What greater proof could you have?" FDR was wont to disagree: "George, the Germans could have rigged things up." Earle was frustrated. As he later put it, including in a Congressional inquiry, Roosevelt was adamant that the claims were "entirely Gennan propaganda and a German plot.'' The president said to his emissary: "I'm absolutely convinced that the Russians didn't do this." An amazed Earle responded: "Mr. President I think this evidence is overwhelming.'' lt was. • It was also no surprise. The , Soviets had been shipping captured Poles into Russian territory • since 1939. Tltis was hardly a , secret and was reported in • sources like the New York Times . (April 15, 1940). But FOR refused to believe Earle. Even then, the debate wasn't over. Earle saw FDR 's denial of Katyn as a microcosm of a more dangerous denial of the overall "Russian situation,'' and how the USSR "deceived" too · many Americans, including in the • White House, which was being duped by ''Uncle Joe" and his cromes. . FDR was getting annoyed with ' Earle. "George,'' the president . lectured, "you have been worried about Russia ever since 194. Now let me tell you. I am an ole man than you and I have had a Io of experience." The Democratic governor again pressed the evidence, but to no avail. George Earle later expressed his exasperation, saying he felt "hopeless." Alas, hope springs eternal. And for the Polish people, a people of unwavering faith, they never lost hope that the truth about their loved ones would be told. even while denied by quarters as high as the Oval Office. With the action of the Russian Duma, their faith and hope was finally rewarded, not by America's wartime president but by the nation that perpetrated this heinous act. At this season of faith and hope. may the souls of Katyn rest in peace.

Member SIPC. Cough From PageA1 whooping cough and ODH has an electronic monitoring system to track the disease should it begin to travel south. Wilcox said she's noticed no whooping cough cases in the surrounding counties though she encourages the booster especially for caregivers of young infants who can't be vaccinated against it until they're a few months old. Though most adults have had the vaccines at one time or another, it wears off over time. The CDC is presently recommending a pertussis booster at age 11 or 12, as research has found that the immunity from the five original vaccinations declines by that age. Ohio is one of 20 states that permits parents to refuse immunizations based upon some form of strong personal belief. It is unclear at this time if lack of immunizations is playing a part in the outbreak. according to ODH. Like the CDC, Wilcox recommends the tetan!JS, diphtheria, and pertussis (Tdap) booster shot for adults or caregivers of infants or those who share a home with an infant. In Franklin County. the Columbus Public Health has been encouraging the same group to obtain booster vaccinations as well as adolescents and adults to slow the spread which is affecting practically all age groups. According to the CDC, whooping cough- (technically known as pertussis) is most severe for babies, who often catch the illness from a family member or other caregiver. More than half of infants less than one year of age who get the disease must be hospitalized. . Pertussis usually starts with cold-like symptoms, and maybe mild cough, but not every runny nose is pertussis. Pertussis is often not suspected or diagnosed until a persistent cough with spasms sets in after 1-2 weeks. Boosters for whooping cough are available at the MCHD at no charge though donations are appreciated.

HOW COSTLY: Disasters caused $222 billion in economic losses in 20 J0- more than Hong Kong\ economy according to Swiss Re. That's more than usual, but not a record, Schraft said.

Even the extremes were extreme. This year started with a good siled El Nino weather oscillation that causes all sorts of extremes worldwide. Then later in the year. the world got the mirror image weather system with a strong La Nina. which causes a different set of extremes. Having a year with both a strong El Nino and La Nina is unusual. And in the United States. FEMA declared a record number of major disasters. 79 as of Dec. 14. The average year has 34.

''The extremes are changed in an extreme said Greg fashion," Holland. director of the earth system labOratory at the National Center for Atmosphedc Research. For example, even though it sounds counterintllltive. global wruming likely played a bit of a role in "Snowmageddon" earlier this year. Holland said. Thafs because with a warmer climate, there ·s more moisture in the air. which makes storms including bliuards, more intense. he said. White House science adviser John Holdren said we should get used to climate disa<;ters or do something about global wanning: 'The science is clear that we can expect more and more of these kinds of damaging events unless and until society's emissions of heat-trapping gases and particles cu·e shmply reduced."

Mining disasters - men trapped deep in the Earth - caused dozens of deaths in tragic collapses in West Virginia. China and New Zealand. The fortunate miners in Chile who survived 69 days underground provided the feel good story of the year.
