REED BREEOOMYDAILYSENTINEL.COM POMEROY - Meigs County Commissioners and the county's tourism board will meet with motel and bed and breakfast owners to determine if a lodging tax can benefit -the county's efforts to attract tourists here. Most - if.not all other counties in Ohio charge a tax to guests in their lodging facilties, such as motels, hotels and bed and breakfast inns. Tourism Director Michelle Donovan told commis~ioners yesterday the tax could generate $15,000 to $17,000 per year based on the number of lodging . businesses in the county and a three-percent lodging tax. . Donovan said the tourism board will meet with the owners of lodging .facilities in .order to address their concerns and answer any questions, and will secure more statistical data from the state and other counties before commissioners take action to approve the tax. Among the questions are whether cabins at Forked Run State Park would fall under the tax, as well as camping spaces in privately-owned park&. Donovan said there ·are believed to be 13 lodging businesses in Meigs County, , including the Mei$s Motel and a number of tons and be'd and breakfasts. The owners of those businesses were contact~d by letter, and Donovan said she has · received both positive and negative comments about the proposed tax. . · "There is a misconception among many of the busmess owners that the tax is levied against them," Donovan said.

If found in violation of the trash ordinance, which is a minor misdemeanor, residents could face a $100 fine and court costs.

"The sole purpose was to acquire (bank) cards and PIN numbers," Darragh said. ,;He mentioned at one point that he knew eventually he would take her life." · But Emerson gave him false PINs, and Hilton final 1y took a tire iron to her well known i'n the. area where Emerson wa; 'hiking with her dog, a black Lab named Ella, investigators huve ;aid.

We worry about them doing well in school and staying away from a host of dangers, including alcohol. ·Families have a powerful influence over a young person's decisions about whether or not to use alcohol. Research suggests that children are less likely to drink when their parents are involved in their lives. Adolescents drink less and have fewer alcohol-related problems when there are cleat and consistent expectations set about drinking. In fact, parents' disapproval is the key reason children give for not using alcohol. . All parents and caring adults need to talk to their children about drinking. Make sure their decisions are based on the facts - an(l not on a beer commercial or pressure from the friend down the street. While parent-child conversations about not drinking are essential, you also need to take concrete action to help your child resist alcohol. The message is clear: Young teens need plenty of adult supervision. Some ways to provide it: Keep track of child's activities, set a good example, don't support teen drinking, connect with other parents, help your child build healthy friendships, establish clear "no alcohol" rules, .and encourage healthy alternatives to a(cohol. All members of our community need to recognize the serious consequences of underage drinking. It makes our highways less safe, our schools less effective, and our future less certain. Working together, we can positively impact the lives of our youth and give them the skills to be the leaders of tomorrow. Michelle Evans Meigs County Mobilizing for Change on Alcohol Southern Local Schools 0 NION PageA4 Friday, February 1, 2008 A look at Juno' and pro~life Hollywood Every . year or >O. a Cinderella movie leaps into the ultimate Hollywood Alist - the Academy Award nominees for best picture. The sleeper this time around was "Juno," the sweet but edgy story or Juno MacQuff, a geeky teen who gets pregnant after a sort-of-bored sexual encounter with a friend. The movie also drew Oscar nomination~ for Canadian Ellen Page, 20, as best actress, for director Jason Reitman , 30, and former st ri ppe r - turned ~ screen ­ writer Diablo Cody, 29. Now it's time for the winner-take-all round of campaigning. whi'ch often includes behind-the-scenes maneuvers in the tradition of Niccolo Machiavelli . Do not be surpri sed if rival studios try to hurt ''Juno" by circulating shocking rumors that many religious conservatives who oppose abortion have pmiscd this movie. It helps ·that the rumors are true. Take former Republican senator Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania, for example. He has listed "Juno" among recent hits - including "Knocked Up'' and "Waitress" - that suggest American popular culture is "awaking to the reality of life in the womb." While these films come from the heart of the "bawdy mainstream," they include images and themes that will surprise traditionalists, argued Santorum , in Terry Mattingly an essay wrilten as a senior fellow at the Ethics & · Public Policy Center in Washington, D.C. "Ultrasound images awakened characters and audiences to the humanity of the unborn. Having a baby, even in the most challenging circum stances, became the compelli'ng 'choice.' " noted Santorum, a devout Catholic and author of the book ".It Takes a Family;' ' written during hi s unsuccessful 2006 bid to stay in the U.S. Senate. "Adoption was held up as a positive alternative to abortion . And, unlike the news media 's portrayal of pro-lifers. protesters outside al;>Ortion clinics were authentically depicted as warm and concerned. This stood in contrast to the indifference of the staff within. " In a pivotal scene, Juno calls the "Women Now" clinic - a parent's signature is not required - and bluntly tells the switch: board operator she needs to "procure .a hasty abortion." But when she approaches the facility. Juno discovers that a high school' friend is staging a solo protest out- side. This scene is played for nervous laughs, with the girl chanting. "All babies want to get horned!" But when she realizes that·Juno is headed inside, the friend urgently adds. "Your baby has a beating heart! Your baby can feel pain' Your baby has fingernails'" . This last line sticks and, in the waiting room. Juno is -haunted_by the sound of the ·other patients around her tapping, clicking and chewing their fingernails. As she flees the clinic, her friend . calls out, "God appreciates your miracle!" The pregnant teen choos-. es - with · strong support . from her loving father and stepmother- to endure the public ordeal ,of her pregnancy, surrender the baby through adoption and then move on with her life. The key is that "Juno'' is about people struggling to make real decisions in the real world , according to screenwriter Barbara Nicolosi of Act One, a group that trains Christians to work in the Hollywood mainstream. This isn't a connect-the-dots sermon targeting true believers. The movie doesn't preach, because it wasn't created by preachers. But "Juno" can be called "pro-life, in the way that just about every Gen-X movie about pregnancy is pro-life," wrote the former Catholic nun on her "Church of the Masses" Web site. "I would say 'Juno' is a cultural-message movie without being a political one. Certainly, that will be an inscrutable nuance · in contemporary Christendom in which almost everything is politics .... "The movie is also antidivorce in the way that just about every Gen-X movie about family is antidivorce. And people with faith are here too, in a 'decent and gritty way that shows mere secularism to be selfish and shallow." The bottom line, said Santorum, is that a mainstream movie like "Juno" has a chance to connect with mainstream audiences. Secular critics have, so far, even responded with "thumbs up" reviews. The· most hopeful possibility, ·he added, ·is that these movies symbolize a. kind of power shift as one Hollywood generation is exposed to the _hopes and fears of the next. "They .are .... chronicles from the children of our divorce- and abortion-oriented culture," Santorum added. "There is lived · experience, emotional understanding, hard-earned authenticity at the heart of these scripts. And pain."

The rush of Christmas is behind us (whew'). and summer seems so far away. In the bleak midwinter, it is easy to get the bad-weather blues. In recent years, scientists have even developed a name for it: Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Sad, indeed! Scientists tell us that the cure for SAD is light; we just don't get enough of it during the shortened winter days for some people's brains to produce rue speci fie · chemical that wards off depression (orto shut otT the production of another hormone that can cause depression). Interestingly, women get SAD over men by a 3-to1 ratio. But no matter your gender, I have a word of advice: if you're feeling SAD, get into the Light' . Call it ,a stretch, but I think this resonates with the Christian experience. The Gospel of John opens with the image uf Jesus as the Light: "In Him was life, and (hat life was the light of men. The lighl shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not under''' od it." Life can be extremely SAD (Sinful And Doubtful) especially without Jesus Christ. But He - the Light -· is a cure for ow SADness, if only we could understand and accept it. It seems to me that much of the time, we only want a little Light - not too much, because our eyes start to squint and sometimes the Light hurts our eyes. I especially have a hard time tum" ing on the light in the bath. room first thin~ in the morning. Let me JUSt us the night light, that's enough ... Actually, no it is not. I remember once reaching into Friday, February 1, Pastor Kerry Wood the bathtub to tum on the shower. The nightlight didn't reveal anything, but the moment I turned on the water, a cat shrieked and jumped out of the bathtub. I nearly jumped out of my skin! Spiritually speaking, we are often only half-awake. We don't want too much Light - just a little will do. But when the· cats of disas·ter appear out of nowhere, we are· not ready. Going to church once a week for an hour for . worship is not enough Light to get you through tl'ie SAD times. And if you participate in church less than that, you are stiII walking in total darkness' The only way to get enough Light to cure your SAD is to truly commit y01.1rself to the Light! Be involved in an ongoing refationship with Jesus and with other Christians. Join a Sunday school class and/or weekday Bible study. Get involved in an outreach program that helps others. Begin afterschool tutoring, hospital and/or nursing home visitations - anything that brings your attention off of yourself and on to others.

But it has failed to do so. On the .contrary, he is· as· alive as ever in the memory of the American people. and is almost (if not quite) universally beloved. It is positively comical to see how. all of the Republican pr~sidential wannabes, in election after election, proclai m themset ves " Reagan Republican,," and vie for the honor of wearing his mantle. It is almost the exact equivalent of the fetish the Democrats have made of FDR. As you might expect, some of the current crop of Democratic politicians are not above trying to get a little qf the Reagan· glory to •ub off on thein. One of the most recent is Baratk Obiuna, who told a Nevada . newspaper lhat Reagan had offered America a ",ense of dynamism and entrepreneurship that had been miss·ing." This is incontestably true, but Obama neglected to couple it with some balancing words of condemnation that certain of his Democratic colleagues apparently felt were neces'sary. So Obama has been landed·on by the gatekee~rs of the Democratic shrine, for whom Ronald Reag.an was - and must always be por- . trayed as - irremediably evil. Thus Paul Krugman, who embarrasses even the Op-Ed . page of The New York Times with his frantic liberalism. bluntly declared, "the furor over Obama's praise for Ronald Reagan is not, as some think, overblown. The fact is that how we talk about the Reagan era . ·st iII matters immensely for American politics." Krugmm1 follows this up with a column's worth of tendentious denunciations of Reagan 's policies: "Reaganomics failed .... The Reagan economy was a onehit wonder. (T)he inevitable recession arrived (in the Bush years) .... There wasn't any resurgence (in productivity).'' Etc., etc. In all of this, ,of course, Krugman misses the point. Perhaps more accurately, he avoids the , point. Arguing over this or that aspect of .Reagan's economic. record misses the true significance of the man as totally as the Liberty-League nitpickers of the mid-1930s missed the ' significance of Franklin Roosevelt. It wasn't FOR's grotesque economics, or ·his disastrous court-packing plan, that made the New Oeal memorable and popular. It was the man's · panache, and his obvious confidence in the fundamental strength and vitality of American society, that endeared him to the voters. Similarly, what character, ized Ronald Reagan, and made him memorable, was his pride in this country and in its commitment to the principles of freedom, both here and abroad. Americans saw in him a reflection of their own nobility, and responded to it. That is the mark of a true leader, and that is .what the Reagan "myth" was really about.

Matthew 5:8 Integrity The word ''integrity" comes from the Latin word "integritas," meaning soundness or wholeness. and this is the same word from which we get the word "integer." A person of'integrity, like an integer. is complete and whole. The American Heritage Dictionary defines · integrity as: ''n. I. Steadfast adherence 10' a >l ricl ethical code. 2. The staie of being unimpaired; soundness. 3. The qualily or condition of being whole or undivided; completeness." The first definition, steadfast adherence to A str.ict ethical code. is what we usually think of when we <hink of a person with integrity. Thm is, we think of someone · who will not compromise their principles for some temporary gain or advantage. And although this definition seems to suggest that a person of integrity might be overly rigid in . adhering to their ethical code, the third definition. the quality or condition of being whole or undivided. more aptly suggests thai the person of tnlegrity is Hear, Q lsraei:·Tbe Lord our God, the someone who is of one mind and has an Lord is one; and you shall love the Lord , undivided spirit.

I only knew George Francis little more than a year, but seldom has any· one impacted my life as much. I met George and his wife, Gail, after joining Bill (George's cousin) and Joanne Francis' l.,ife Group (home !Jible study group) at Bethel Worship Center in Tuppers Plains in the fall of 2006. What a blessing he and Gail have been to me and my family, as well as to our former and current Life Gtoup members. And if you went to George's funeral, you realized what a blessing he was to hundreds of lives in the southern Ohio and Mason County, W.Va., communities. When I think of Geor¥-e, my first thought is "Christ-like.' What an example of Christ's love he was to all of us. So many other words come to mind that illustrate George: humble, kind, generous, unassuming, honest, faithful, trusting and trustworthy ... and he was helpful, fair, industrious, diligent, reliable, caring, loving, peaceful and just plain likable. Peter described Jesus as one "Who did no sin. n,e ither was guile found in his mouth" (I Peter 2:22, KJV), and I think that, also gives a picture of ihe kind of man George always strived to be-l don't believe there was a deceitful or vindictive bone in his body. He just wasn't capable of being devious or unkind. Thou'gh his heart gave out prematurely it would seem, his was a true · servant's heart, and his life was one of living sacrifice. Just one example , of this he told me about was the fact that he set aside his own education in order to work to help pay for his younger sisters to go to college (one earned a Ph.D., the other two. master's degrees). Another was how he would repeatedly and gladly drop whatever he was doing to help a cus- tomer in need of an immediate repair. (George owned · a small engine repair shop and a trash hauling business in Pomeroy). A more recent example was when he cooked and baked (you never tasted a finer apple dumpling!) and did . behind-the-scenes logistics work for his church brothers at our recent M.en 's Encounter' Retreat, surrender· ing his own need and opportunity for spiritual nourishment and refreshment. And again, his ability and persevemnce at his age in holding down two jobs and running two independent businesses to support .himself and Gail, was daily evidence of his hard-working nature and readiness to sacrifice tor the benefit of others. I had lately been wanting to spend more time with George and get to know him better. Sadly, that will have to wait now for the day when we meet again in heaven . But I am grateful for the short time I did know George - the joyfu I conversations we had and th~ invaluable things I learned from him. He left behind lessons for all of us that are timeless · and priceless - instruction in living, , and how to live - selflessly and sacrificially, putting others' needs before our own. Though George wasn't a teacher, he taught by example: his example was to follow Christ, and that he did, well and faithfully. By the world's standards he was not a highly educated or -successful man, but Geor~e was full of godly wisdom in stonng up his treasure in heaven- and no doubt his heavenly reward is great. So while I am deeply grieved that George is no longer with us, I rejoice in the sure knowledge that he is now with his heavenly Father, Whom I believe has welcomed him into paradise with open arms and an enthusiastic, "Well done, good and faithful servant; enter thou into the joy of thy Lord." I will always remember George Francis. It was an honor and a privilege to know the man. and I will miss him greatly. He wqs my brother in Christ and a beloved friend. (Doug Swart resides in Pomeroy.) Huckabee's experience as pastor an asset in presidential race BY RACHEL ZoLL AP RELIGION WRITER PINE BLUFF, Ark . Mike Huckabee learned how to be a politi· ciao in church. As pastor at Immanuel Baptist in Pine Bluff, he visited the home of every member. Years later, he could recall their names. He learned how to raise money, even ·in struggling congregations. And in a statewide fight ·over Baptisr leaders hip, he confronted powerful opponents and won. He called it "some of the most intense hardball politics I have ever seen." As Republican presidential candi· date, Huckabee's remarkable balancing act~ tiring up both Bible-believers and !he less religious - can be traced to his style of preaching.

CARR SMYTH M' STATEHOUSE CORRESPONDENT COLUMBUS - The state will ~liminate· up to 2, 700 jobs, close two mental hospitals and start state-run video Keno gambling in an effort to reduce a projected budget deficit, Gov. Ted Strickland announced Thursday. Strickland also issued orders to limit state travel, ])iring, personal service con. tracts and equipment in the face of a predicted a budget shortfall of between $733 million and $1.9 billion by June 2009, depending on how the economy fares. He said the initial cuts will cover the lower figure, and that he will consider ta~ping the state's $1 billion ramy-day fund if further cuts are necessary. ,.,. plloto "I know that the decisions Ohio Gov.

BY STEPHEN MAJORS ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER COLUMBUS - . The state Supreme Coun ruled unanimously Thursday that cities have the power to use traffic cameras to catch vehicles that are ·caught breaking •traffic laws and civilly fine the owners. In Its decision, the court said cities using the devices do not exceed the "homerule" authority to make local ordinances given to municipalities under the state's constitution. The cameras are in use in a range of Ohio cities, including Columbus, Cleveland, Toledo and Akron. Tbe court acknowledged that use of the cameras to issue civil citations to an offending vehicle's . owner had also raised ·questions regarding an individual's constitutional rights. Those questions are before a federal court, which had fust asked the Ohio Supreme Court to review whether cities could use traffic cameras under their home-rule powers. With the home-rule questioned answered, the federal case will now con~inue in U.S. District Court in Cleveland to determine whether there have been violations of motorists' constitutional rights, said Jacquenette. Corgan, an attorney for Kelly Mendenhall, the Akron-area . motorist who filed suit. Mendenhall and other Akron-area motorists had challenged citations they received when mobile city cameras photographed their vehicles speeding m a school zone. They argued tha:t the city of Akron'~. decision to use cameras to punish traffic violations with civil penal-. ties conflicted with state laws defining speeding and traffic-light violations as criminal offenses.

AI the bridge lable you would likelo have a partner who plays beaulilully. II she looks beautiful too, thai is a bonus because she will probably distract your male bpponenls. (Many years ago at a Juan·les·Pins tournament in the south of France, two attrac1ive women played one afternoon wearing see-1hrough blouses and no b1as. They had lhe high· est score that session.) In this deal, Easl and West musl have faith in.each o1her to defeat the contract. South is in four spades. After Weslleads ' his singleton club, how should lhe defenders card? True, North has only 15 high-card poinls, but with just five losers (two spades, one heart, one diamond and one club), he is worth the jump to lour spade,. But il North rebids only throe spades, South would go on to game. East should realize that his partner has led a singleton. tWnh two or three low clubs, Wesl would nollead lhe lwo.) So East, after winning with his dub ace, should return the club nine, his highest remaining club being .a suit·preference signal for hearts, the higher.rankiog of the two unplayed side suits. And West, after rulling, should shift to a ldw heart, not cash his ace. Then East can win the trick with his king and deliver a second dub ruH to defeat the contract. Do you think a man might also be dis· trac1ed by a beaulitul partner? He should not be. Remember, he is not allowed to look at his partner during a deal.
