POMEROY - Nervous shop owners in
downtown Pomeroy are watching the Ohiq
River closely as the latest predictions indicate the water will crest just over flood stage.
Early yesterday evening, a spokesperson
for the Racine Locks and Dam said the most
recent flood crest prediction for Racine was
42.8 feet at 7 a.m. on Saturday morning.
'JYpically, three to four feet is added to that
number to arrive at where the water will crest
in Pomeroy. Flood stage in Pomeroy is 46
feet, while flood stage in Racine is 41 feet.
As of 5:30p.m. yesterday the water was at
31.6 feet at Racine and just under 35 feet in
Pomeroy after rising nearly two feet in three
hours. Yesterday evening the spokesperson
with the Racine Locks and Dam said in order
to prevent damage to equipment, the hangers
on the dani would likely be raised before midnight when the lower end rises to around 33
feet. The Racine Locks and Dam has nothing
to do with flood control and only provides a
navigable channel aJong the Ohio River.
The ·last significant flood in Pomeroy was
in January 2005 when the water crested at
50.6 feet. At 46.5 feet, the water is on the
streets in downtown and at 48 feet downtown

Gardeners learn all about hummingbirds
. SYRACUSE - Wildwood
Garden Club members
learned all about hummingbirds in a report from Diana
Ash at their. recent meeting
held at the Syracuse
Community Center.
According to Ash, the
main source of food for
hummingbirds is insects,
such as flies. She said setting out overripe bananas
attracts flies which then
attract hummingbirds. .
The birds are attracted to
red, she said, adding that
she hangs glass feeders dec·
orated with ted flowers in
her yard. Hummers tend to
investigate anything red,
she said, perhaps because
,the flowers and the birds
evolved together. In observing the hummingbirds, she
noted that they seem to be
very territorial.
Ash mixes food in a galJon jug and stores it in the
refrigerator for up to two
weeks. The mix consists of
one part white cane sugar
.to four parts water. She said
it's not necessary to boil
the mixture smce the
microorganisms that cause
fermentation don 't come
from the water but are

transported to the feeder on
hummingbird bills. She
does not use red food coloring in preparing the food
bec;mse 11 may cause
tumors in the hummers.
As for .the feeders, they
need to be cleaned thoroughly at least once a week
to prevent mildew and
mold. That can be done by
soak:in~ the feeders in water
consistmg of 114 cup bleach
to one gallon of water for
one hour, cleaning with a
bottle brush, . and rinsing
thoroughly.
·
Feeders should be put out
in spring and left hanging
until September in case a
straggler needs fed. Leaving
feeders up longer will not
keep the hummers from
migrating, she said.
As for the lifestyle of
hummingbirds, they puff
out their feathers and sleep
in trees and shrubs, and the
females lay eggs the size
of a navy bean. While
hummers are not the only
bird that can hover, they
are the only bird that can
fly backwards.

drama set during World War

When he finds out that the

estate planning and health
planning become even more
critical to protect our independence in unpredictable
situations. In many of these
cases, legal counsel can provide advice and help to create documents that will
ensure our wishes are
known and followed.
Elder law is a relatively
new, specialized field of law
that deals with issues faced
by the fastest growing segment of the US population.
It combines elements of
estate planning, wills and .

health care planning and
Medicare/Medicaid planning.

legal advice to the best of his
or her ability. However, just
as a medical specialist offers
expertise for certain health

elder law may be able to
offer more specific know!edge about certain issues
than a general law attorney.
For example, an attorney
who is experienced in elder
law would be able to help
you plah how you want to

typically minimizes potenual taxes and fees, and sets

However, for these and all

How long has the auomey

BY RusTY MILLER
ASSOCIATED PRESS

COLUMBUS Ohio
State locked up 19 football
recruits on Wednesday. Yet
all anyone seemed to want to
talk about was the ~&gt;ne it didn't get- at least not yet.
While thousands of kids
across the country signed on
the dotted line at major colleges, Terrelle Pryor, called
by some the best quarterback prospect in the country,
decided to wait. The
Pennsylvania prep star said
he will clear his head, perhaps visit Penn State and
Oregon, and then make&lt;a
choice between
those
schools, the Buckeyes and
rival Michigan.
Ohio State coach Jim

Tressel met with reporters
late in the afternoon and was
prevented by NCAA rules
from talking about prospective recruits. He could only
hint at what Pryor's addition
might have meant to a
recruiting class that various
recruit services rate as one
of the best in the country. ·
''We feel as if it's exactly
what we needed. We felt as
if we could fit 20, maybe 21,
in that that was going to be
tight," he said, as reporters
chuckled at the obvious reference to Pryor. "We're still
recruiting as we sreak and
that's about al we're
allowed to say about that. I
guess we're allowed to say
we're still recruiting at the
quarterback position. I think

NEW YORK - Brian
McNamee gave federal
prosecutors syringes .and
other physical evidence his
lawyers say back the personal trainer,'s allegations of
drug use by Roger Clemens,
who returns to Capitol Hill
on Thursday in hopes of
rebutting the accusations.
Clemens, who g'lve a ·
deposition Tuesday, is
scheduled to hold one-onone meetings with members
of the House Committee on
Oversight and Government
Reform, two people familiar
with the plans said, speaking
ori condition of anonymity
because no announcement
was made.
Among the members
Clemens is to meet with is
Rep. Tom Davis, the committee's ranking Republican,
one of .the people said.
Committee chairman Henry
Waxman is not scheduled to
meet with Clemens.
McNamee is due to meet
with
committee
staff
Thursday morning to give
his own deposition, and his
legal team said it will bolster
his story with details of the
evidence.
His side turned over gauze
pads and .syringes they said
had Clemens' blood to IRS
Special Agent Jeff Novitzky
in early January, a ~rson
familiar with the evtdence
said, speaking on condition
of anonymity· because
McNamee's lawyers did not
want to publicly discuss
details. The syringes were

used to inject Clemens with
steroids and human growth
hormone, the person said. A
second person; also speaking
on condition of anonymity,
said the evidence was from
2000 and 200 I.
"I think this is a significant
point in the case. We believe
that this is significant corroboration," ·
said
McNamee's lead lawyer,
Earl Ward.
Lanny Breuer, ;one of
Clemens' lawyers, called
McNamee's
allegations
"desperate smears" and said
the trainer "apparently has
·
manufactured evidence."
"It is just not
~dible,"
Breuer said in a statement.
"Who in their right mind
does such a thing?"
In December's Mitchell
Report on doping in · baseball, McNamee said he
injected Clemens 16 times
w1th performance-enhancing
drugs in 1998, 2000 and
2001.
Richard Emery, another of
McNamee's lawyers, said
the committee will be given .
a description of t,he evidence
that was turned over to prosecutors.
"It does change the nature
of the case from a he-said,
she-said to something about
physical evidence," Emery

silid.

Doping expert Don Catlin
said steroids still could be
detected in a sample that old.
"But if you don't find it, it
doesn't mean it wasn't there
before," said Catlin, who
added. there are sure to be

repon, Radomski made one
sale of Deca-Durabolin for
which Donnelly paid $250 to
$300.
The report also said that,
while deciding whether to
trade for Donnelly, Boston's
baseball operations department discussed concerns that
he was using performanceenhancing substances.
In an e-mail to vice president of player personnel Ben
Cherington, Zack Scott of the
Red Sox staff wrote of
Donnelly: "He was a juice

CLEVELAND (AP) Reliever Brendan Donnelly,
alleged in the Mitchell Report
to have purchased steroids,
was signed to a minor league
contract on Thesday by the
Cleveland Indians and invited
to spring training.
Donnelly spent last season
with the Boston Red Sox,
going 2-1 with a 3.05 ERA in
27 appearances for the World
Series champions. .
He went on the 15-day disabled list in June with a forearm injury and underwent
Tommy John elbow surge~
in August Although he can t
help them immediately, the
Indians are hoping the righthander may be able to bofster
the back end of their bullpen
at some point.
He is expected to reJl9rt to
camp in late March and will
miss the first few months of
the season as he rehabs from
the operation.
The 36-year-&lt;&gt;ld, who was
an All-Star with the Los
Angeles Angels in 2003, was
one of 80-plus players named

Week' declared, AS

Miracle heaters being given away free with orders for real Amish fireplace mantles to launch the new invention
that slashes heat bills, but Amish craftsmen under strain of winter rush impose household limit of 2

'

Middleport • Pomeroy, Ohio

Saves money: uses less energy than a coffee maker, so leave it on day and night and never be cold again
By MARK Wooos
Universal Media Syndicate

(UMS) Everyone hates high heat bills. But
we're all sick and tired of turning down the
thermostat and always being cold. ·
Well now, brand new HEAT SURGE™
miracle heaters are actually being ·given away
free to the general public for the next two
days starting at precisely 8:00 a.m. today.
The only thing local readers have to do Is
call the National Distribution Hotline before
the 48 hour deadline with their order for
the handmade Amish Firepla~e Mantles,
Everyone who does is instantly being awarded
the miracle heaters absolutely free.
This is all happening to launch the new
HEAT SURGE Roll-n-GlowTM Amish Fireplace
that actually rolls from room to room so you
can take the heat with you anywhere. That
way, everyone who gets them first can immediately start saving on their heat bills.
For the first time ever, portable Amish
fireplaces are being delivered directly to the
doors of all those who beat the deadline.
These miracle fireplaces have what's being
called the 'Fireless Flame' technology that
gives you the peaceful flicker of a real fire but
without any flames, fumes, smells, ashes or
mess. Everyone is getting them because they
require no chimney and no vent.' You just plug
them in.
The Fireless Flame looks so real it fools
everybody but it has no real fire. So what's the
catch? Well, the SQft spoken Amish craftsmen
who hand make the mantles are imposing a
strict household limit of 2 during the strain of
the.winter rush.
"We can barely keep up ever since we started giving heaters away free. Now that It's really cold ou~side, everyone's trying to get them.
Amish craftsmen are working their fingers to
the bone to be sure everyone gets their delivery In time to save a lot of money," confirms
Timothy Milton, National Shipping Director.
"These portable Roll-n-Glow Fireplaces are
the latest home decorating sensation. The.y
actually give you a beautifully redecorated
room while they quickly heat from wall to
wall. It's the only way to dress up every room,
stay really warm and slash your heat bills all
at the same time," says Josette Holland, Home
Makeover Expert to the rich and famous.
And )'!ere's the best part. Readers wbo
beat the 48-hour order deadline are getting
their imported hi-tech miracle heaters free
when encased in the real Amish built solid
wood fireplace mantles. The mantles are being handmade in the USA right in the heart
of Amish country where they are beautifully
hand-rubbed, stained and varnished.
,You just can't find custom made Amish
mantles like this in the national chain stores.
That makes the solid oak mantle a real steal
for just two hundred ninety-eight dollars since
the entire cost of the miracle heater is free.
This free giveaway is the best way to slash
beating bills and stay warm through the dead
of winter. The HEAT SURGE Roll-n-Glow
Fireplace gives you all the beauty and warmth
of a built-in fireplace but it can also save you a
ton of money on beating bills.
Even people in California and Florida are
llocking to get them so they may never have
to turn on their furnace all winter. And since
it uses less energy than a coffee maker the potential savings are absolutely incredible.
"We are making sure no one gets left out,
but you better burry because entire communities of Amish craftsmen are straining to keep
up with winter demands. For now, we have to
turn away dealers in order to let readers of
. today's newspaper have two per houf!ehold
just as long as they call before the deadline,"
confirms Milton.
It's a really smart decision to get two right
now because for only the next 48 hours you get
both miracle heaters free. That's like putting
five hundred bucks right in your pocket and
you can save even more money on your monthly
.heating bills.
·
"Everyone's calling to get one but those who
really want to save a lot on their heating bills
are surprising the whole family by getting two.
So when lines are buay keep trying or log onto

OEPA approves AMP air pennit
BY BETH SERGENT

BSERGENT@MYDAILYSENTINEL.coM
COLUMBUS ._ Late
yesterday afternoon the
Ohio
Environmental
Protection Agency issued a
final air permit for the
American Municipal Power
Generating Station proposed for Letart Falls.
The permit regulates air
emissions from the proposed facility's two coalfired utility boilers, a natural gas-fired auxiliary boiler,
a gypsum, bottom oil and
fly ash landfill , material
handling equipment and

.cooling cells that .would be
built
along Ohio
124
in Letart Falls.
· The OEPA air permit is
one of the major bureaucratic hurdles th~ plant is facing. There is still no word
on when a decision will be
handed down from the Ohio
Power Siting Board on the ·
plant application.
The argument of global
warming and controlling the
emissions · of greenhouse
gasses, particularly carbon
dioxide, has been one of the
major sticking points with
environmentalist , groups
opposed to the plant.

In ·a statement, OEPA scope i~ tailor made for a
Director Chris Korleski comprehensive, well-consaid: "After a great deal of sidered and unify ing federal
consideration and discus- appro.ach, rather than a
sion regarding greenhouse patchwork of uncoordinatgas emissions, Ohio EPA ed and potentially inconsi sdid not limit the emissions tent state and /or regional
