That' tape could be among the items requested by the committee, the same House panel that brought sluggers Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa and Rafael Palnieiro to Capitol Hill in March 2005. No depositions were taken before that hearing. "We . are considering requests for information from all relevant sources," said Karen Li~htfoot, communications dtrector for the committee's chairman, California Democrat. Henry Waxman. McNamee's attorneys have urged the committee to obtain a recording of a conversation between his client and investigators who work for Clemens' law firm. That mt::eting took place Dec. 12, a day before the Mitchell Report was released. Pettitte acknow Iedged McNamee injected him twice with HGH. Radomski is alleged to have supplied McNamee · with pe~for­ mance-enhancing drugs. ''I' II be very interested to see the order of the depositions, whether we will be prbvided with other people's depositions when they are taken," Emery said. If the witnesses are allowed to see others' depositions, that could create an advantage for those testifying later in the process. Hardin said: "The one thing I want to make certain is, is that we don't educate McNamee as to which story to tell these days." McNamee reached · an agreement in which ·he would not be prosecuted .as long as he was truthful in what he told federal investigators and Mitchell. His lawyers will seek a similar agreement with the committee, Emery said. Marin declined to comment when asked about the possibility of immunity for congressional testimony. Before the committee's 2005 hearing, Jose Canseco whose book about steroids in baseball drew congressional scrutiny requested immunity but was turned down. The 45-year-old Clemens put off retirement yet again in 2007, returning to the Yankees in June and going 6-6 with a 4.18 ERA. The right-h,ander hasn' t said whether he will pitch in the majors in 2008. 2008 Meigs County Visitors Guide • Piano students present recital, A3 moth-ranked Chillicothe 51-28 • BY ERIC RANDOLPH SPORTS@MYOAILYSENTINELCOM GALLIPOLIS - Hannah Cunningham scored nine points, and Alexis Geiger added seven to go with a solid defensive game, but the Gallia Academy Blue Angels were defeated by the Chillicothe Lady Cavaliers 51-28 in a Southeastern Ohio Athletic League South Di.vision basketball game on Wednesday night. The Blue Angels are now 3-8 on the season and 1-6 in the SEOAL South. The Lady Cavaliers. are 9-2 overall and 6-1 in the league. For three quarters, Gallia Academy gave Chillicothe all they could handle. In the fourth, the Lady Cavaliers ran away with it, resulting in a final score that was not indicative of just how competitive the game was. "Their talent, their experience overtook us (in the fourth)," said Gallia Academy head coach Jeff Duduit. "We had a great gameplan - proof of that was the first three quarters. Our kids did what we told them to do. It came down to execution." That gameplan allowed the Blue Angels to run with the ninth-ranked team in the state, keeping themselves within striking distance for the majority of the night. Gallia Academy led at one point late in the first quarter and was within two points or one point multiple times throughout. . Their collective defensive effort held Chillicothe's Monique Lee, who has been contacted by · at least one major Division I college, to 17 points. Seven of those. points came in the fourth quarter. · "The veteran part of them took over and our young Cunningham Geiger ' Angels in the form of turnovers and missed opportunities. The~ did not score _another pomt unttl Cunningham returned to the foul line with tliree minutes .left. By then the Lady Cavaliers had blown the game open with a 15-0 run. They added eight more before the end to put a very misleading final score on the board. Not disappointed in his team,,Duduit was appreciative of Chillicothe's head coach for approaching the Blue Angels after the game and complementing their · play, saying it meant a lot to them and hoping his team remembers to remain positive. Other scorers for Gallia Academy were Rachel Jones, Amy Noe, Kari Campbell, and Sam Barnes, who all scored two · points. Lee's 17 made her the leading scdrer for Chillicothe. The Gallia Academy junior varsiiy had better lt~ck against the Lady Cavaliers, winning 50-24. Morgan Daniels was the top scorer for the Blue Angels with 20 points. Megan Grow led Chillicothe with mistakes caught up to us," .stated Duduit. "I'm proud of my kids. They bit on the gameplan. They put the hard practice in. We wouldn't have done anything different, just ,execute a little better." , Up until the fourth it was anybody's game. The teams went basket for basket with each other in · the first quarter. Chillicothe grabbed the first lead, but it dido 't last. The teams wen; tied at four, six, eight, and '10 each, where they finished the quarter. In the second, the Blue Angels would go down by as many as four twice before getting back to within two.

Time has been talked about, writ_ten about and sung about. Time is measured in seconds, minutes, days, weeks, months and years in an orderly fashion. But time· is not the same 'for everyone.

PITTSBURGH (AP)- A local church that voted to leave the Presbyterian Church (USA) has tiled a lawsuit seeking to bar any threat of seizure of its property by the local presbytery as it joins a more conservative denmi1inatinn. The Memorial Park Presbyterian Church, the largest church in the Pittsburgh Presbytery, is seeking to confirm ·its title to 7.5 acres of. land and ownership of buildings. The church filed suit in . Allegheny County Common Pleas Court after its governing body voted unanimously to disaffiliate from the presbytery - a regional body of the denomination - following nearly a year of negotiations. · Memorial Park's congregation, wh1ch was established 64 years a~o and has I ,675 members, will vote on whether to disaffiliate during weekend services Jan. 19-20.

His comment resonated very deeply with what I believe is a common sentiment of God's people today. Of course, it's understandable and appropriate for there to be some resistance to some kinds of change, or changes that are merely reactive and shallow, cultivating nothing of spiritual benefit but only please our b'asic instincts (which, I'm sad to say, is the reason for much change in the world today). Still, change is an essential ingredient in the life of a Christian. Not only is it essential as if it were one factor' among many: it is essential in the sense that the call to be a disciple is all about change - giving, growing and going. We give our hearts and lives to Him · for He gave up His life for · · us (see I Peter I: 18-20). We grow in our character and spiritual stature for He is growing a plethora of spiritual fruit within us (see ·Galatians 5:22-25). And we go with Him as we leave behind what we've always been and become what He wants us to be (sometimes literally changing our geographic position in addition to our spiritual condition see Luke 14:26-27).

Before the birth of our daughter, things were wonderful. Cliff was romantic and attentive. To my horror, things drastically changed.after the baby was born. He ignored me and rejected any attempts to be romantic. I was overwhelmed by the loneliness. Our daughter is now 5 years old. Over the years, I have asked Cliff if he is having an affair, but he denies it and flips the conversation to make me feel like I am the one with the problem. I've asked him to go for counseling, but he refuses. I have confro.nted him with my concerns repeatedly and ·every time he gets mad, apologizes and promises to make things better. For a day or two, he tries to be romantic and then it's the same old same old. I have thought of leaving, but could not stand the effect it would have on our daughter. Her stability is my top priority. Plus, if we divorced, I don't think I could handle multiple "girlfriends" influencing my · daughter every other weekend. I used to blame myself, but now I'm just angry and bitter toward Cliff. When sharing a bed without affection began to affect my sleep, I told him to move into the spare room.

The U.S. Olympic Committee served up a perfeet opportunity for Selig to do something more than just talk. . Major League Baseball and the NFL agreed Thursday to join an anti-doping research collaborative spearheaded, by the USOC. Each will contribute $3 million to create the most extensive drug-fighting partnership to date between the Umted States' biggest pro leagues and its Olympic federation. · A month after the release of. the Mitchell Report, this announcement was especial-, ly significant for baseball, which is . looking for any ~Iimmer of good news durmg this winter of discontent filled with news of doping, Roger Clemens and pending Congressional hearings. "Major League Base\Jall's support of this important · new effort by the U.S. Olympic Committee and the U,S. Anti-Doping Agency continues our commitment to fight the use of performance-enhancing substances among our athletes," Selig said in a statement . When the Mitchell Report came out last month, Selig promised he would act. The timing of the announcement is opportune for baseball, though USOC chief executive officer Jim Scherr said details of this program have been in the works for more than six months. "We've worked a long time with baseball and the other participants," Scherr said. "It's been. . a sincere, long-running· effort by . them." The USOC also is giving $3 million. and USADA is ' giving $1 million to the new Partnership for Clean , Competition, ·a collaborative venture that will use the money to fund grants for research to combat performance-enhancing drugs in sports. · .. The NBA, NHL and PGA also are participating. and USOC chairman Peter Ueberroth said the USOC soon will secure more contributions from sports and nonsports corporations. Ueberroth told The Associated Press he expects the funding tO go well beyond $10 million quickly. "We want to be in a place where we can stay ahead of cheaters and buy into economic ways to fight this battie," he satd. Although thi s progrHm isn't a shift in . the leagues' testing protocols, it is significant because baseball and the NFL ion~ have distanced themselves from anti-doping programs endorsed by the USOC and USADA. saymg their ·programs are tailored specifically for their >ports and their unique management-unioil issues. Part of the research money will go toward developing a better and cheaper test to detect human growth hormone. Already wor,king on the~e kinds of tests ts Don Catlin, the longtime leader of the world-renowned lab at UCLA who resigned to start his own lab. Catlin, who could be a beneficiary of this new line of funding, said he was "floored" by the ne\YS. "It's dear to my heart beca11se I always felt research was the answer in this whole field," he said. "They've been doing testing for 25 years, and we all know what they can ·and can't do. My whole founda- · tiona! premtse and rationale for what I'm doing is a belief in research." Catlin, who has received $500,000 each from baseball and the NFL for research on a urine test on HGH, said he was surprised the leagues si~ned onto the program wtth the USOC. "That means they recognize · the value of collaboration, and that there are common problems that cross over all sports," Catlin said. ''That's important" The research collaborative is ·one in a series of anti-doping initiatives the USOC plans over the coming months and years. "It doesn' t affect one sport or just sports," Scherr said. "It affects society. It's something the leagues sincerely believe in." Up to now, the research part of the anti-doping fig!Jt has been underf~nded. Sctenttsts and pharmactsts have been able to come up with new, undetectable steroids more quickly than agencies such a~ USADA have come up wtth tests to light them. · The $10 million, to be contributed by the four founders over the next four years, will be a significant boost to the worldwide research effort. The World Anti-Doping Agency. thought to be the biggest single contributor to the cause, has given $31 million to research since 200 I. "This U.S. research initiative provides a significant multiplication of resources and is a model we hope will be replicated in other devel- · oped countril!s," WADA dtrector seneral David Howman satd. Ueberroth also would like to see less·expensive tests developed for high school sports. These tests wouldn't meet the standards of a USADA-style test, but could be used, for instance, to help coaches detect possible widespread use on their teams. . The PartnershiP. for Clean Competition wtll have · a board of governors, with one member from each of the founding partners. That board will appoint a scientific research advisory board. The scientific board will review grant requests and track results of research projects. · The NFL has had an extensive anii-doping policy in place for several years. Though it lacks a test for HGH, it is considered eff~c­ tive because it bans players for four games after a first positive steroids test and ~oes after salaries and signmg bonuses. Both baseball and the NFL also have been active in other anti-dopin-g programs. In October, the NFL gave $1.2 million to the Atlas and Athena program, which encourages high school students to look to exercise and healthy eating instead of steroids and HGH. Baseball has . alliances ·with the Partnership for a Drug-Free America and the Taylor Hooton Foundation. One of the key components of the Mitchell Report was the recommendation that baseball employ an independent anti-doping corporation to run its steroids pro~ram. Although baseball s contribution to this new project 'falls short .of that, it is , a substantial alliance with the USOC and USADA, which runs the kind of program the Mitchell Report endorses. Grounds from Page Bl were almost even up till the pivotal third quarter. Meigs trailed for most of the first quarter, but the Lady Marauders used a late 4-0 run to take the lead 1312 in the final minute. They stretched that lead to four by halftime. Tricia Smith had five of Meigs' nine p<?ints in the second and fintshed the game with seven. "We didn't want a thirdquarter lapse like we had ~P, there. That was the mam thing we tried to do at halftime, just make sure that we were alert. We increased the press, the coverage on the press," said Wolfe. ..1 thought the third quarter was the difference m the game." ' Meigs opened the quarter on a 7-2 run, and midway through the period the press was proving to be successful: The Lady Golden Ea~les had just four more pomts through. the first five minutes; the Lady Marauders had. scored 14, By the start of the fourth, they would ·have a 12·point lead. Howard led the cl'large with nine points and threefor-three shooting from the foul line. Though the final margin of victory was sevenJ'oints, Wolfe felt it woul have bet;n more if the Lady Marauders' free-threw shooting had been better. They went 16-of-30 on the night and 9-of-20 ' in the fourth . ' Belpre (4-8, 2-3 TVC Ohio) did their best to take advantage of their opponent's missed free throws , The Lady Golden Eagles scored 14 points in the final four minutes, most of which came from Laura Green.

They're three games away. from \9-0 and an NFL title, but one· los' away from losing a lot of the luster a \6-0 regular season brought them. That hasn 't changed Bill Belichick. "We've treated it one week at a time all year, so this week it's Jacksonville," the Patriots coach intones. "Each week has it's own unique challenges and that's definitely true this week. I don't think any of those other g es really have a whole Io, of bearing on this one." Same old song. New England rested last week. as did the other top seeds in the NFL's postseason festival: No. 2 Indy and .the two top NFC teams, Dallas and Green Bay. They all face first-round winners in tile latest test of whether it's better to have momentum or rest. But the Patriots probably rested less than most. Even in a bye week. Belichick always gives his players something to work on. That's in cQntrast to · Dallas' Wade Phillips, who. told his players to take three days -off. So Tony Romo went to Mexico with · his celebrity inamorata while the Patriots studied playbooks. The Patriots have reason to believe that Saturday night's game will be difficult. The Jaguars (12-5) won in Pittsburgh for the second time this season, losing a 2810 fourth-quarter lead, then rallying to win 31-29 on Josh Scobee's late 25-yard field goal. It was set up a by a 32-yard fourth-down run by QB David Garrard, who was the team's leading rusher in the game. Normally, Jacksonville depends on Maurice Jones- also had time to heal injured players. although Marvin Harrison , who's · missed 1iJUch of the season with a knee problem, is still uncertain. Still, this team may be stronger defensively than any Tony Dungy has had with the Colts. And the offense has been without Harrison for so long that Peyton Manning has gotten used to working with new receivers, notably roolde Anthony Gonzalez. San Diego also has a prob. lem with one of its stars: TE Antoni'o Gates, . who sprained his' big toe last ·week and is day to day. The Chargers started 1-3 under Norv Turner, but go to Indy with a seven-game winning streak, including last week's 17-6 first-round victory over Te·nnessee one more playoff win than the departed Marty · Schottenheimer had with last season's 14-2 team. The Chargers beat the Colts 23-21 in San Diego on Nov. II in a fluky game.

They've · sometimes, that first score is the hardest one to get and yoq get going. then Hbpefully, this jump-starts all of us." round RB Ahmad Bradshaw; and WR Steve Smith, a se9ond-rounder who missed much of the season with injuries. New York Giants (11·6) at Dallas (13-3) (4:30p.m. Sunday) These teams have played 91 times, although this is the first time they've met in the playoffs. · The Cowboys won both regular-season IJ!eetings: 4535 on opening night and 3120 at the Meadowlands on Nov. II. That loss in Dallas is the last time the Giants were beaten on the road. They have won eight straight, including a 24-14 win in Tampa last week, their first playoff victory since they beat Minnesota to go . to the Super Bowl following the 2000 season. They also have more momentum than the Cowboys, who lost two of their last three and got those days off earlier this month. Dallas hasn't won a postseason game since 1996. Romo, whose relationship with Jessica Simpson seems to interest folks more than his on-field activities, finished poorly: one touchdown and five interceptions in his last two regular-season games. The maligned Eli Manning was much better for the Giants with six TDs and one interception combined in the Tampa Bay win and the near-miss 38-35 Joss to New England in the regular-season closer. Dallas' most pressing problem is the health of Terrell Owens, who has a high ankle sprain. He has practiced thts week, but Phillips says his status is a game-time decision. Terry Glenn, out almost all season with knee problems, could help fill the hole, but he could be rusty. One reason the Giants have improved offensiveiy is the play of several rookies: fifth-round TE Kevin Boss, replacing the injured Jeremy Shockey; seventh- Seattle ( 11-6) at Green Bay (13·3) (4:30p.m. Saturday) · Mike Holmgren, who won a Super Bowl coaching the Packers, points to last season's overtime Joss to eventual NFC champion Chicago to demonstrate why hjs Seahawks are equipped ~ play in cold weather. . "No one gave us .the slightest . chance to even come close and we played a very fine· football game; lost "' the football game, but played a good game and hlfj:l a chance," he says. "We know the challenges, bur it kind of gets you going. : It kind of gets the juices flowing a little bit to say, 'OK, here's what we're up againtit now. Let's see what we can do.' That's a healthy thin~. That's a good thing." The key for Seattle will be to get .a rush jm Brett Favre. Patrick Kerney was second in the NFL with 14 1/2 sacks and the Seahawks were fourth overall with 45. But · traction at Lambeau Field could be a problem; a wet or slippery field often causes defenses as many problems as it cau~es offenses. : There are connectiol)s between these teams. Not only did Holmgren win that title and an NFC championship in Green Bay, but he is credited with making Favre a star, and "Holmgren Way." n~ed after him, is adjacent to Lambeau Field: Seattle QB Matt Hasselbeck was once Favre's backup. And in a 2004 playoff game in Green Bay, he was caught by .a microphone after ·the overtime coin flip saying: "We want the ball and we're going to score!" Instead, he threw an interception that was returned for the Packers' winning TD.

Yes, he would again call for ·the two debatable twopoint conversion tries. The decision to run the ball on the Steelers' failed final drive, which led to Jacksonville's winning field goal .and the Jaguars' 31-29 AFC playoff victory on Saturday. Yes, that Ben Roethlisberger rollout on third-and-6 from the Pittsburgh 26 with 2;56 to play and the Steelers up 2928 would be repeated even though a successful short pass play would have -given them the opportunity to run out the clock. Roethlisberger was stopped for only a !-yard gain on a quarterback sweep to his left, a play that the Steelers rarely use but which still didn't fool Jaguars safety Sammy Knight. Roethlisberger h r 337 I rew •Or yardsan d two scores and the Steelers ran for only 43 yards on 26 carries, yet they called three successive run plays on that final drive. OK, Tomlin may be second-guessing that play-callinga little. "Hindsight is 20-15 sometimes," Tomlin said at his end-of-season qews conference Thursday. "If you had it to do over, yes, you would love to do that (throw the ball) because the result .of the play was not the result we were looking for." Tomlin's ftrst season as an NFL head coach began well with records of 4-1 and 7-2 but ended with four losses in 'five games, including their first early round home playoff Joss in 15 years. That's why Tomlin took a few extra days before talk- . o ' · · ing to reporters for one last time this season. "It was an emotional game," he said. "It was a gut-wrenching, defeat, but every January defeat I have experienced has been the same." Tomlin twice gambled by going for two points, rather than kicking the extra point, after the Steelers scored in the fourth quarter !O get within 28-23 and again when they went ahead 2928. The first time, Tomlin stayed with the two-point conversion even after a holding call on center Sean Mahan pushed the Steele.rs back 10 the 12 yard line. On another debatable quarterback keeper, Roethlisberger was stopped at the 3. "Yes, I'd do it again," Tomlin said...1 throw caution to the wind. I play to win." Following their go-ahead touchdown four minutes later, the Steelers were trying to go up by 3 points so a field goal woutdn't beat them - which, of course, is ~xactly . what happened when Josh Scobee ktcked a 25-yarder with 37 seconds to play. On other issues, Tomlin said he: .1 - Plans to retain all of his assistant coaches, aJthough it is common for a first-year coach to reassess · his staff and mak.e changes. - Thinks the Steelers currently are "a good tea(ll. That's what 10-6 teams are, . what division champions are. We've got to be great." - Said his first season as a head coach didn't go "as well as I would have liked." - Wouldn't disclose, for now, whether the Steelers will eventually switch from a 3-4 defense to a 4-3. He also wouldn't say if he favors yanking llp Heinz Field's often-mushy grass and putting down artificial turf. ~ Galli a County OH .' y.Jebsites: In One Week With Us . www.mydailytribune.com E-mail www.mydailysentinel .com classified@ myd<jilytribune.com REACH OVER 285,000 PROSPECTS www.mydailyregister.com PLUS YOUR AD NOW ONLINE To Place {!Cribune l\egi~ter Sentinel Your Ad, (740) 446-2342 (740) 992-2156 (304) 675-1333 Call Today... or Fax To (740) 446-3008 or Fax To (740) 992·2157 . ----------~--~~--~--- ()ead'lfirtU' Oftfee 11o~~ Monday thru Friday 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. HOW I0 WRITE AM AQ oglotor will for n ro lllln 1111 coot o aponalble ·r Dally In-Column: 1:00 p.m. Monday-Friday for Insertion In Next Day:s Paper Sunday In-Column: 1:00 p.m. Frlda1j For sundays Paper All Display: 12 Noon 2 Business Days Prior To· Publication Sunday Display: 1:00 p.m. Thursday for Sundays Pa1>er Ir___ ·------,.1 Gt~WAY female. 1 male 5 wks old 304-6755361 -------Free firewood· 2 tree trunks alroady doWn. 1 Ash & 1 Oak.

Ky. Earl Clark pulled up froiJ.I the corner and let the 3pointer fly. Clank. In a flash, the Louisville forward raced to the basket, wiggled his 6-foot-9 frame in 'between two West Virginia defenders and tipped in a miss by center David Padgett. After watch'ing his teammates dominate rival Kentucky while serving a one-game suspension last Saturday, Clark wasn't about to waste any more time in coach Rick Pitino's doghouse. , Clark posted his seventh double-double of the season in Louisville's easy 63-54 win over the Mountaineers on Thu.rsday, scoring 11 points and grabbing 12 rebounds as the Cardinals shut down one of the Big East's most dynamic offenses with a suffocating zone defense. "It just felt good being out there again,'' Clark said.

"It's just embarrassing to us because we take pride in our defense," Raymond said. "They scored on six possessions in a row. It looked like we were out there to trade baskets." Miller saw nothing in practice leading up to the game that indicated his team had lost its focus. He was surprised when the Musketeers repeatedly were out of place on defense, something he attributed to .a lack of enthusiasm. "If you carr't get excited to play the first game of the Atlantic I 0 season, something's wrong with you," he fumed. "We've got a couple of guys who have got something wrong with them right now.

' "We played a smart game, except a little at the end," Pitino said. "We changed defenses when they went inside. They're a very difficult team to defend." . . For one night at least, the Cardinals had the answers. Joe ·Alexander led West Virginia ( 11-4, 1-2) with 22 points, but the rest of the team shot just 31 percent from the floor. Leading scorer Alex Ruoff had 13 points but shot just 4-of-14 from the field, mcludi.ng 3of-10 from 3-point range. The Mountaineers made a season-low four 3-pointers on the night. : "We knew coming .in a {actor was stopping the 3; and we did a very good job of that," Padgett said . •!When we guard the 3, it seems we are successful." West Virginia had hoped to gain some mom~tum after upsetting Marquette on Sunday. But that game was at. home. On the road the . Mountaineers have struggled to find the rhythm that has them off to a surprising start in coach Bob Huggins' first year at his alma mater. "I think the pressure got to us,'' Huggins said. "We didn't run our offense very well. Guys, let's be honest, if we continue to score 54 points, we won't win ailother game." Louisville's bench outscored West Virginia's reserves 30-4, and the Cardinals had a 13-6 edge in second-chance roints. It was the kind o performance the Cardinals knew .they needed after opening · Big East play with a st4nning home loss to Cincinnati on New Year's Day. "It seems as though defense is going to be a stapie of this team if we' re going to win," Padgett said. "We aren't going to shoot well every night. We knew coming into the game we absolutely had to have this game tonight." The Cardinals won it by harassing West Virginia's shooter&, contesting nearly every '3-pointer the Mountaineers put up . Even Padgett got in on the act, stepping out to block a 3po111t attempt by Alexander 111 the second half, then taking a charge on the next possession . . "When you have defensive intensity, everybody feeds off that," Smith said. "You make better plays"on offense. It gets you going. " The two schools had hooked up in a couple of classics in recent years. Tbe Cardinals beat the Mountaineers in overtime to reach the Final Four in 2005, · and Louisville knocked West Virginia. out of the Big East tournament last year with an 82-71 win in double-overtime. This one wasn' t nearly as pretty, or as· close.

POMEROY -Meigs County was rimked seventh out of 18 southeast Ohio counties in a recent U.S. Census study done on poverty grqwth between 2004-05 . In 2004, the census numbers state that 18.1 percent of people living· in Meiss County were living m poverty. ln 2005, that number went to 19.9 percent. Meigs actually fell in the middle of the unfortunate list, a few slots below Gallia County, which placed third on the list with )7.4 percent of residents living in poverty in 2004 and 22.8 of residents ' living in poverty in 2005. Athens County had the dubious distinction of topping the list with 20.2 percent of residents living in poverty in 2004 and 31.5 percent of residents living in poverty in 2005 . . Rep.
