Sales in areas where the median household income was less than $38,000 were · _twice as high as those posted in arel!S where median incomes exceeded $60,000, the newspaper said in its analysis. The Dispatch also reported th.at were twice as many winners in lower-income areas, which also had twice as many stores selling lottery tickets. Ohio is hoping to add another $73 million a year in state revenue when the lottery starts video· Keno gambling on July I. Critics say the move - like the lottery itself - is a tax on those who can least afford it. "Everyone is always screaming about doing things to help people who are the most in need," said Rob Walgate, vice president of the Ohio Roundtable; a Strongsville-based public policy organization whose Web site describes its mission "to restore traditional Judea-Christian · principles to American public policy." 'The problem is we keep expanding opportunities for them to throw money away," Walgate said. Ohio Lottery Director Ohio lottery sales: By the numbers (AP)- An aoalysis by' The Columbus Dispatch found that Ohio Lottery ~ales are the highest in lowerincome neildlborhoods. · · THE Nt1MBERS: Total sales -in 2007 were $2.3 billion. Stores in the lowest-income communities, where mediao incomes range from $10,000 to $37,810, sold more than $589 million in instant. games aod lottery tickets las(year. · EJ,SEWHERE: Lottery sales in Ohio's most affluent areas, where n:Jediao mcomes mnge from $60,600 to .$125,000, totaled $297.6 million. . METHODOLOGY: The newspaper used two databases from the Ohio Lottery that show 2007 sales by stores that offer lottery games aod people who won a prize of at least $600. The data were linked to a third database that uses U.S. Census Bureau numbers to estimate median household incomes with Ohio ZIP.codes. Michael Dolan said players are free to make their own choices. · "You're passing judgment. on another law-abiding citizen's Jaw-abiding activities, as if that person isn't. capable of managing his life," Dolan said. Odds of winning the lottery's bigg~t prizes are long. The multistate M~ga Millions game posts 1-in176 million odds. Ohio's Classic Lotto game has 1in-14 million odds. And the state's $20 scratch-off game - $5 million Cash Winfall - has a 1-in-3.6 million shot of winning. . Yet in · lower-income areas, there's no shortage of customers, including those at Yearling Market and Carryout in Whitehall, a Columbus suburb where the median income is $38,700. With more than $2.2 million in total annual sales, the' store is among the top five· lottery outlets statewide. "I've just about lost hope on it," said Charles Spaulding Jr., a retired truck . driver who · spends about $90 of his monthly $1.300 income on the Ohio Lottery. "I'm not going to spend every penny on it. If I see I' in getting low on money, I ·· pass it up." · Ohio lottery officials say it makes sense that more lottery sales are in lower-income neighborhoods beca.use urban areas, which tend to be lower-income, have more small s~ops.

Last year, I asked my son-in-law to help with some work on my house and yard. One day, I came home from the office, kicked off my heels. and lay down on the couch. My son-in-law came in from working outside to get a drink and we struck up a conversation. He made a few remarks abOut how tired I looked - and off~red to give me a foot massage. Itook him up on it.

But it's also possible he is a loving sonm-law and knows a foot massage makes you feel better after a long day. Here's how you find out: Ask him to give you a foot rub when your daughter is in !he room. If he has a foot fellsh, she would know. And if he's reluctant to rub your feet when other family members are present, it may be because ,he considers 11 ao intimacy - in which case, it's time to stop.

Sales in areas where the median household income was less than $38,000 were · _twice as high as those posted in arel!S where median incomes exceeded $60,000, the newspaper said in its analysis. The Dispatch also reported th.at were twice as many winners in lower-income areas, which also had twice as many stores selling lottery tickets. Ohio is hoping to add another $73 million a year in state revenue when the lottery starts video· Keno gambling on July I. Critics say the move - like the lottery itself - is a tax on those who can least afford it. "Everyone is always screaming about doing things to help people who are the most in need," said Rob Walgate, vice president of the Ohio Roundtable; a Strongsville-based public policy organization whose Web site describes its mission "to restore traditional Judea-Christian · principles to American public policy." 'The problem is we keep expanding opportunities for them to throw money away," Walgate said. Ohio Lottery Director Ohio lottery sales: By the numbers (AP)- An aoalysis by' The Columbus Dispatch found that Ohio Lottery ~ales are the highest in lowerincome neildlborhoods. · · THE Nt1MBERS: Total sales -in 2007 were $2.3 billion. Stores in the lowest-income communities, where mediao incomes range from $10,000 to $37,810, sold more than $589 million in instant. games aod lottery tickets las(year. · EJ,SEWHERE: Lottery sales in Ohio's most affluent areas, where n:Jediao mcomes mnge from $60,600 to .$125,000, totaled $297.6 million. . METHODOLOGY: The newspaper used two databases from the Ohio Lottery that show 2007 sales by stores that offer lottery games aod people who won a prize of at least $600. The data were linked to a third database that uses U.S. Census Bureau numbers to estimate median household incomes with Ohio ZIP.codes. Michael Dolan said players are free to make their own choices. · "You're passing judgment. on another law-abiding citizen's Jaw-abiding activities, as if that person isn't. capable of managing his life," Dolan said. Odds of winning the lottery's bigg~t prizes are long. The multistate M~ga Millions game posts 1-in176 million odds. Ohio's Classic Lotto game has 1in-14 million odds. And the state's $20 scratch-off game - $5 million Cash Winfall - has a 1-in-3.6 million shot of winning. . Yet in · lower-income areas, there's no shortage of customers, including those at Yearling Market and Carryout in Whitehall, a Columbus suburb where the median income is $38,700. With more than $2.2 million in total annual sales, the' store is among the top five· lottery outlets statewide. "I've just about lost hope on it," said Charles Spaulding Jr., a retired truck . driver who · spends about $90 of his monthly $1.300 income on the Ohio Lottery. "I'm not going to spend every penny on it. If I see I' in getting low on money, I ·· pass it up." · Ohio lottery officials say it makes sense that more lottery sales are in lower-income neighborhoods beca.use urban areas, which tend to be lower-income, have more small s~ops.

And if he's reluctant to rub your feet when other family members are present, it may be because ,he considers 11 ao intimacy - in which case, it's time to stop.

Divorce· Fed ~ulling out BY JEANNINE AVERSA AP ECONOMICS WRITER WASHINGTON - The Federal Reserve, in an extraordinarily rare weekend move, took bold action Sunday evening to provide cash to financially squeezed Wall Street investment houses, l! fresh effort to prevent a spreading credit cnsis from smking the U.S. economy. · The central bank approved a cut in its emer· gency lending rate to financial institutions to 3.25 percent from 3.50 percent, effective immediately; and created a lending facility fot big investment banks to secure short-term loans. The new lending facility will be available to big Wall Street firms on Monday. 'These steps will provide financial institutions with greater assurance of access to funds," Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke told reporters in a brief conference call Sunday evehing. The Fed acted just after JP Morgan Chase & Co. agreed to buy rival Bear Stearns· Cos. for $23'6.2 million in a deal that represents a stunning collapse for ooe of the world's largest and most venerable investment banks. Just on Friday the Fed had raced to provtde emergency. financing to cash-strapped Bear Stearns through JP Morgan. Days earlier the Fed announced a set of other unconventional steps to thaw out a credit market in danger of freezing shut.

' On world financial mar, kets, Asian stocks plunged early Monday after the JPMorgan and Fed announcements. Markets in Australia ahd New Zealand also fell. The new lending facility - described as a cousin to the Fed's emergency lending "discount window" for banks - is geared to give major investment houses a source of short-tenn cash on a regular basis - if they need it. It will be in place for at least six months and "may.be extended as conditions warrani," the Fed said. The interest rate will be 3.25 percent and a range of collatenil including investment-grade mortgage backed securities - will be accepied to back the overnight loans. "This is the Fed as the Yucca Mountain of securitized debt, but 'i t is no doubt necessary," said Terry Connelly, dean of .Golden Gate University's Ageno School of Business, referring , to the government's underground dump in Nevada for nuclear waste. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson said he was pleased by Sun¢1y's deve)opments. "Last Friday, I said that market participants are addressing challenges and I am pleased with recent developments. I appreciate the additional actions taken this evening by the Federal Reserve to enhance the stability, liquidity and orderliness of our markets," he said.

Astronauts on space station ·test brakes on handyman robot BY Ltz AUSTIN PETERSON ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER HOUSTON - The inter, national space station's giant new handyman robot got its first checkup on "Sunday, with astronauts and flight controllers testing its electronics, joints and brakes. The Canadian-built robot, named Dextre, passed all but one of the tests. One of the wrist joint brakes in Dextre's left arm slipped a tiny bit more _than engmeers wanted, but Canada's acting space station program manager said he wasn't too concerned. The brakes help hold the ann steady. ,, · "In the long term it's riot going to affect the operation of Dextre in any significant way," Pierre Jean said. Astronauts and flight co'htrollers planned to test the brake a couple more times in hopes that it slips , less as it gets more worn in. Jean said.

Divorce· Fed ~ulling out BY JEANNINE AVERSA AP ECONOMICS WRITER WASHINGTON - The Federal Reserve, in an extraordinarily rare weekend move, took bold action Sunday evening to provide cash to financially squeezed Wall Street investment houses, l! fresh effort to prevent a spreading credit cnsis from smking the U.S. economy. · The central bank approved a cut in its emer· gency lending rate to financial institutions to 3.25 percent from 3.50 percent, effective immediately; and created a lending facility fot big investment banks to secure short-term loans. The new lending facility will be available to big Wall Street firms on Monday. 'These steps will provide financial institutions with greater assurance of access to funds," Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke told reporters in a brief conference call Sunday evehing. The Fed acted just after JP Morgan Chase & Co. agreed to buy rival Bear Stearns· Cos. for $23'6.2 million in a deal that represents a stunning collapse for ooe of the world's largest and most venerable investment banks. Just on Friday the Fed had raced to provtde emergency. financing to cash-strapped Bear Stearns through JP Morgan. Days earlier the Fed announced a set of other unconventional steps to thaw out a credit market in danger of freezing shut.

' On world financial mar, kets, Asian stocks plunged early Monday after the JPMorgan and Fed announcements. Markets in Australia ahd New Zealand also fell. The new lending facility - described as a cousin to the Fed's emergency lending "discount window" for banks - is geared to give major investment houses a source of short-tenn cash on a regular basis - if they need it. It will be in place for at least six months and "may.be extended as conditions warrani," the Fed said. The interest rate will be 3.25 percent and a range of collatenil including investment-grade mortgage backed securities - will be accepied to back the overnight loans. "This is the Fed as the Yucca Mountain of securitized debt, but 'i t is no doubt necessary," said Terry Connelly, dean of .Golden Gate University's Ageno School of Business, referring , to the government's underground dump in Nevada for nuclear waste. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson said he was pleased by Sun¢1y's deve)opments. "Last Friday, I said that market participants are addressing challenges and I am pleased with recent developments. I appreciate the additional actions taken this evening by the Federal Reserve to enhance the stability, liquidity and orderliness of our markets," he said.

Astronauts on space station ·test brakes on handyman robot BY Ltz AUSTIN PETERSON ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER HOUSTON - The inter, national space station's giant new handyman robot got its first checkup on "Sunday, with astronauts and flight controllers testing its electronics, joints and brakes. The Canadian-built robot, named Dextre, passed all but one of the tests. One of the wrist joint brakes in Dextre's left arm slipped a tiny bit more _than engmeers wanted, but Canada's acting space station program manager said he wasn't too concerned. The brakes help hold the ann steady. ,, · "In the long term it's riot going to affect the operation of Dextre in any significant way," Pierre Jean said. Astronauts and flight co'htrollers planned to test the brake a couple more times in hopes that it slips , less as it gets more worn in. Jean said.

But the Buckeyes lost their first game in the Big Ten tournament, falling 67-60 to the Spartans. The Gators and Buckeyes were expected to be high seeds in the NIT, which was to release its pairings at 9 p.m. Sunday. The two teams were No. I seeds in last year's NCAA tournament, and lived up to the lofty expecta· · tions by making the title game. Florida won that meeting 84-75 in Atlanta, becoming the first school since 1992 to win consecutive national championships. But both squads were devastated by the NBA draft two months later, Florida coach Billy Donovan had three players - AI Horford, Corey Brewer and Joakim Noah selected in the top nine picks. Taurean Green and Chris Richard were second-round picks, and sharp-shooting guard Lee Humphrey graduated. Ohto State's Greg Oden was taken with the top· pick, and Mike Conley Jr. and Daequan Cook also went in the first round. Those personnel losses .were so drastic that Donovan, who briefly took a job with the NBA's Orlando Magic before changing his mind and returning to Gainesville, ·and OSU coach Thad Matta shared a la1,1gh before the season about how little experience they had coming back.

But the Buckeyes lost their first game in the Big Ten tournament, falling 67-60 to the Spartans. The Gators and Buckeyes were expected to be high seeds in the NIT, which was to release its pairings at 9 p.m. Sunday. The two teams were No. I seeds in last year's NCAA tournament, and lived up to the lofty expecta· · tions by making the title game. Florida won that meeting 84-75 in Atlanta, becoming the first school since 1992 to win consecutive national championships. But both squads were devastated by the NBA draft two months later, Florida coach Billy Donovan had three players - AI Horford, Corey Brewer and Joakim Noah selected in the top nine picks. Taurean Green and Chris Richard were second-round picks, and sharp-shooting guard Lee Humphrey graduated. Ohto State's Greg Oden was taken with the top· pick, and Mike Conley Jr. and Daequan Cook also went in the first round. Those personnel losses .were so drastic that Donovan, who briefly took a job with the NBA's Orlando Magic before changing his mind and returning to Gainesville, ·and OSU coach Thad Matta shared a la1,1gh before the season about how little experience they had coming back. "The reality is we're in a tremendous rebuilding process, and this is why I came back to take on this type of challenge," Donovan said Thurs!Jay after Florida lost to Alabama in the Southeastern Conference tournament.

At the bridga table, the 1110fe counting ~ou do. either forward or backward, the better. It is the single most important trait that s8parates experts from everyone else. Experts count everything. You do not need to do that to play very well, and if you track only one thing, count highcard points. Yes, try to tally trumps too, but points are more important on moat deals. Take, for example, this three-notrUfrl) contract. How would you plan the play after West leads a heart? A.n overcall of one no-trump shows a hand wilh a good I 5 jl<>nts lo a middling I 8 and at lees! one heart slopper -just a tad stronger than a 15-17 one-notrump opening. West leads the heart two, tow from a low tripleton in a suit his partner has bid and but that was not supported. {This is important. " is the one time you go against Boston: Botlom of Something, Top of Nothing. But if West had raised hearts, he would ~ve ted the six: top of nothing.) You have six top tricks: three spades, one heart, one diamond and one club. A winning finesse in e~her minor will brinQ in the e11tra three tricks. Which one should you take? There are only 13 high-card points missing, 001 East opened the bidding.. He · must have both of the minor-suit kings. Win with your heart ace, play a club 10 dummy's ace, and run the diamond queen. Wtlen that wins, you take two more diamond finesses, collecting three spades, one heart, four diamonds 'and one dub. NO CtiA~Gf fO~ ­ P~CAF! -.

At the bridga table, the 1110fe counting ~ou do. either forward or backward, the better. It is the single most important trait that s8parates experts from everyone else. Experts count everything. You do not need to do that to play very well, and if you track only one thing, count highcard points. Yes, try to tally trumps too, but points are more important on moat deals. Take, for example, this three-notrUfrl) contract. How would you plan the play after West leads a heart? A.n overcall of one no-trump shows a hand wilh a good I 5 jl<>nts lo a middling I 8 and at lees! one heart slopper -just a tad stronger than a 15-17 one-notrump opening. West leads the heart two, tow from a low tripleton in a suit his partner has bid and but that was not supported. {This is important. " is the one time you go against Boston: Botlom of Something, Top of Nothing. But if West had raised hearts, he would ~ve ted the six: top of nothing.) You have six top tricks: three spades, one heart, one diamond and one club. A winning finesse in e~her minor will brinQ in the e11tra three tricks. Which one should you take? There are only 13 high-card points missing, 001 East opened the bidding.. He · must have both of the minor-suit kings. Win with your heart ace, play a club 10 dummy's ace, and run the diamond queen. Wtlen that wins, you take two more diamond finesses, collecting three spades, one heart, four diamonds 'and one dub. NO CtiA~Gf fO~ ­ P~CAF! -.
