The nine justices have said almost nothing about gun rights, and their predecessors have likewise given no definitive answer to whether the Constitution protects an individual's right to own guns or whether that right is somehow tied to ser. vice in a state militia. The case that will be argued Tuesday is among the most closely watched of the term, drawing 68 briefs from outside groups. Most of those support· an individual's right to own a gun. "This may be one of the only cases in our lifetime when the Supreme Court is . going to interprer an important provision of our Constitution unencumbered by precedent," said Georgetown University law professor Randy Barnett. Even if they determine there is an individual .right, the justices still will have to decide whether the capital's · 32-year-old handgun ban can stand and how to evaluate other gun control Jaws. This issue has caused di vision within the Bush administration, with Vice President Dick Cheney taking a harder line than the administration's official position at the court. The local Washington government argues that its law should be allowed to remain in force whether or not the amendment 'applies to individuals, although it reads the amendment as intended to allow states to have armed forces. The City Council that adopted the ban said, it was justified because "handguns have no legitimate use in the purely urban environment of the District of Tuesday, March 18, 2008 would ask the federal governASSOCIATED PRESS WAITER ment to expedite a declaration of Atlanta as a disaster area.

His lawyers say the amendment plainly protects an individual's ·right. The 27 words and three enigmatic commas of the Second Amendment have been analyzed again and again by legal scholars, but hardly at all by the Supreme Court.

By the end of Monday night's spacewalk, e~pected to last into the wee hours of Tuesday, Dextre should have three types of tools, four in all, as well as a platform for holding big items like batteries. Linnehan, who also took part in the mission's first two spacewalks, said it has been surreal to work around the gigantic white robot. It reminds him of a prop from a "Star Wars" movie. ''But it isn't sci-fi, it's reality, and it's happening up here right now," he said. Five spacewalks are planned for Endeavour's 16-day fligtlt, which is .near. ing the halfway mark. While shuttle astronauts have performed five SJ?acewalks before on a smgle flight ·- on trips to the Hubble Space Telescope it will be a record for a shuttie-station mission. Besides · delivering Dextre to the space station, Endeavour's crew dropped off a storage compartment for the Japanese lab that will fly · up in May. The astronauts not involved with the spacewalks including Japanese Takao Doi - continued setting up the storage compartment in preparation for the arrival · of the lab, named Kibo, Japanese for hope. cZfv.!:;- -l- Mwo;h 20 Humphrey.

Eric Cunningham, Mayor �• 'I>· 1 \ The Daily Sentinel ACROSS THE NATION Meaning of Second Amendment is at issue in Supreme Court case over DC handgun ban BY MARK SHERMAN WASHINGroN - The Supreme Court gets to write on a blank slate when it takes up the meaning of the Second Amendment "right to keep ·and bear arms" and · the District of Columbia's ban on handguns. The nine justices have said almost nothing about gun rights, and their predecessors have likewise given no definitive answer to whether the Constitution protects an individual's right to own guns or whether that right is somehow tied to ser. vice in a state militia. The case that will be argued Tuesday is among the most closely watched of the term, drawing 68 briefs from outside groups. Most of those support· an individual's right to own a gun. "This may be one of the only cases in our lifetime when the Supreme Court is . going to interprer an important provision of our Constitution unencumbered by precedent," said Georgetown University law professor Randy Barnett. Even if they determine there is an individual .right, the justices still will have to decide whether the capital's · 32-year-old handgun ban can stand and how to evaluate other gun control Jaws. This issue has caused di vision within the Bush administration, with Vice President Dick Cheney taking a harder line than the administration's official position at the court. The local Washington government argues that its law should be allowed to remain in force whether or not the amendment 'applies to individuals, although it reads the amendment as intended to allow states to have armed forces. The City Council that adopted the ban said, it was justified because "handguns have no legitimate use in the purely urban environment of the District of Tuesday, March 18, 2008 would ask the federal governASSOCIATED PRESS WAITER ment to expedite a declaration of Atlanta as a disaster area.

His lawyers say the amendment plainly protects an individual's ·right. The 27 words and three enigmatic commas of the Second Amendment have been analyzed again and again by legal scholars, but hardly at all by the Supreme Court. The amendment reads: "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the' right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.''

It was the third spacewalk of shuttle Endeavour's visit to the station, each one aimed at putting together Dextre, the ·giant robot. The last time astronauts floated out, Dextre got arms. Thi s time, the robot was getting a tool belt and two cameras that will serve· as eyes - interestingly, at . waist level. "Happy St. Patrii:k"s Day, guys," astronaut Michael Foreman called out to his spacewalking colleagues. "I forgot it was St. Paddy's Day," replied Richard Linnehan. "Should have worn the green EMUs." That's NASA talk for extravehicular mobility units, otherwise known as spacesuits. The robotic work by Linnehan and Robert Behnken sho11ld complete De~tre's assembly outside the international space station. So far, the 12-foot robot and both of its 11-foot arms -have checked out fine. Each arm has seven joints, and the crew wanted to make sure the brakes worked. Dextre, a Canadian Space Agency contribution that cost more than $200 million, is designed to assist spacewalking astronauts . and, eventually, ·to take ovei some of their chores. Its designers envision the robot one day replacing batteries and other space station parts - it can lift ·as ·much as 1,300 pounds - and also performing some fine precision tasks like handling bolts. ' · It has a sense of touch and· is capable of sensing force and movement. That's how Dextre got its name, in fact. It's short for dexterous. By the end of Monday night's spacewalk, e~pected to last into the wee hours of Tuesday, Dextre should have three types of tools, four in all, as well as a platform for holding big items like batteries. Linnehan, who also took part in the mission's first two spacewalks, said it has been surreal to work around the gigantic white robot. It reminds him of a prop from a "Star Wars" movie. ''But it isn't sci-fi, it's reality, and it's happening up here right now," he said. Five spacewalks are planned for Endeavour's 16-day fligtlt, which is .near. ing the halfway mark. While shuttle astronauts have performed five SJ?acewalks before on a smgle flight ·- on trips to the Hubble Space Telescope it will be a record for a shuttie-station mission.

Condee proposed the summer program to the Ping Institute, which supports activities designed for the teaching of the humanities, and applied for the OHC grant. The. summer institute, called "Uncle Tom's Cabin: Race in 19th Century Ohio," will use an interdisciplinary approach to study the history, culture, literature and drama of the book and play in hopes ·of exploring the racial issues of today. About 20 secondary teachers, mainly in social studies and English, will participate.

Ping Institute for the Teaching of the Humanities and the Ohio Humanities CounciL The Ping Institute is covering roughly $15,000 to the project, and the OHC is matching that with a grant, said William Condee, a pro- · fessor of theater in the School of Interdisciplinary Arts. Condee proposed the summer program to the Ping Institute, which supports activities designed for the teaching of the humanities, and applied for the OHC grant. The. summer institute, called "Uncle Tom's Cabin: Race in 19th Century Ohio," will use an interdisciplinary approach to study the history, culture, literature and drama of the book and play in hopes ·of exploring the racial issues of today. About 20 secondary teachers, mainly in social studies and English, will participate. Teachers will be able ·to use the information and ideas presented to stimulate discussion ..in their classrooms about the historical and cultural sources of racial issues in America.

County Commissioner Mick Davenport said an estimate prepared by Panich and Noel was more than was expected. It calls for renovat. ing the former emergency room wing of the old hospital building into a 911 dispatch center as well as offices for the Emergency Medical Services and Emergency Management Area. Davenport did not say what the estimate was, but said reprcsentati ves of the 911 committee and the other agencies are expected to meet with the architects next week to determine how much of the work proposed is necessary and how much can be ruled out. Much of the work involves a new heating and air conditioning · system, needed to maintain the computer equipment necessary to the 911· system. The area will require some new wiring, ·roof repairs, creation of sleeping areas for crew, and construction of a kitchen area. The wing must also be sealed off from the remaining area of the hospitaL ' Davenport said the hospital wing will stil.l be constdered for the EMS and EMA offices, even if the cost of preparing the space for the 911 center is considered prohibitive, Davenport said. The EMS office, located behind the hospital, is in poor condition due to land slippage. The EMA office is now operating from the county annex building . Davenport said at least two alternative sites, already equipped with the appropriate HVAC system, have been identified in case the hospital is not a feasible location for the 91 1 center. In that case. Davenport said, the hospital ,. reno.vat.ion could be completed in phases. The east Wing was once the emergency room area for Veterans Memorial, and was . last used ' as a behavioral health unit before the hospital closet!. Commissioners have said the planned renovations could be only the first step in re-developing the,l~ospi­ tal building for county office use. The 911 system is scheduled for implementation by the end of this year ' Stewart: Energy bill vote expected in weeks BY BRIAN J. REED BREED<i'MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM· POMEROY - State Rep. Jimmy Stewart, R-Albany, expects Governor Strickland's proposed energy package to come to a vote in the House in the next few weeks. . The outcome of Senate Bill 221, which addresses rate regulations and cost recovery for. electric utililies, will likely determine · whether American Electric Power locates a $2 billion clean-coal power plant in Lebanon Township. The Ohio Supreme Court voted unanimously late last week to reverse a decision by the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio allowing AEP to recover $24 million in engineering and design costs for· the plant. Recovering costs paid by utility companies for new ~enerating facilities is an tssue addressed in Strickland's energy bill, which passed the Ohio Senate late last year and is now before the House for consideration. In ligbt of Friday's Supreme Court decision, AEP said it will not consider Ideating a plant in Meigs County or anywhere else in Ohio unless it is permitted to recover construciion costs from customers. "The main issue is whether utility companies will be allowed to · charge market rates, or whether their rates ' will be regulated by the PUCO," Stewart said, "and whetherthe utilities are guaranteed cost recovery for new generation ." If the · companies are permined to charge their consumers market rates, those rates would be based on supply and demand and the rates of other competing electric companies.
