[viy wife and I lived in Brazoria County. right next to Galveston along the coast south of Houston. Watching the news reports. I saw pictures of places and buildings that I recognized. Unlike most hurricane report s, these affected me personally. I KNEW what those places were supposed to look like - and instead they looked like a war zone. I also have family in the greater Houston area . I called last Friday before the storm hit to find out what they planned ·to do. My aunt said they were going to ride but the stonn rather than j!vacuate.' They lived far enough inland from both the Gulf coast and Gal veston Bay that they didn't think the surge would do anything to them. They were more concerned with the wind and rain, but thev'd done all they could to secure their. property. The rest they had to leave in God 's hands. My grandmother is also down there. Up until a couple of months ago. she was living with my aunt. But she'd fallen and broken her hip, so she had been moved to a rehabilitation center until she was able to move around again on her own. The rehab center was also not evacuating. They'd secured their facilities and done all they could to make the patients and residents · comfortable in an obviously uncomfortable situation. Those of us more than I ,000 miles away from Houston did little to prepare for the storm. Why should we? We aren't in the path of the hurricane right? Well: Ike certainly had more in it than we expected! As Ike continued up from Texas , through Arkansas, Missouri, Tennessee, Kentucky, and even Ohio we all got a close-u'j:l and personal expe,rience of what a CLEVELAND (AP) - A downsizing plan that could shutter more than 45 Roman Catholic parishes m the Diocese of Cleveland 1s prompting some Catholics to look for ways to save their churches.

He had a problem , but he thought he had the right solution when he said to himself: "This is what l'li do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones. and there I will store all my grain and my goods. And I'll say to myself. ' You have plenty of good things laid up for many years.

II Cor. 12:9 World's Alzheimers Daytobe observed Sunday Bv AMILY PageA7 Friday, September 19, Western rouna-up for kias CHARLENE HOEFLICII. HOEFLICH@MYDAILYSENTINE L.COM POMEROY Sunday is World Alzheimer 's Day and local churches are being asked to observe 71 seconds of silence in honor of those battling the disease and in memory of those· who have lost the battle. The Alzheimer 's Association repot1s that every 71 ' seconds someone develops the disease. Alzheimer ' s Disease is the sixth leading cause of death in the U.S . and comirig up with effective treatment is near and dear to the heart of Lenora Leifheit. RN-BC, the faith community nurse for the Meigs Cooperative Pari sh. who is promoting the observance of World Alzheimer 's Day in churches across the county. She is joining in an area appeal to churches to focu s on Alzheimer 's . the effect it has on . families, caregivers and communities this Sunday, and to pray for a move forward in research that we might someday have ,a world without Alzheimer·s. Currently there are no effec· live treatment s for Alzheimer's . The Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimates thai this year will result in more than 72,000 deaths in the U.S . Current statistics show that 5.2 million Americans are living with Alzheimer·s. that one out of eight baby boomers will develop .the disease and that by 2010 there will be about a halfmillion new cases. Leifheit pointed out the number of those with Alzheimer's . Disease is moving up every year at a time when the occurrence of many other diseases are moving down. To help raise awareness of Alzheimer's, a special stamp will be released by the U.S. Postal Service on Oct. 17. ·In several states memory walks on the theme . ''We're on the move to end Alzheimer's," are taking place next week. Since there has been no announcement of walks iri Meigs County, Leifheit is stressing the importance of recognition in the churches across Meigs County. The Meigs County Council on Aging has a program called "Partners in Care" which provides programming for residents with memory loss twice a week, and has weekly meetings for caregivers where they can share their concerns and know that they are not alone in dealing with . the devastation which Alzheimer's brings to families . The program at the Senior Citizens Center provides respite for caretakers and also a lime when those with the disease can participate in activities . which strengthen ti:Ieir minds and bodies . Kathy McDaniel is the coordinator and those with a family member who might benefit from the program are encouraged to call her at (740) 992-2126. The caregivers support group meets on . Fridays from I: 15 lo 2:15 p.m. at the center. During that time special activities are provided for those with memory loss. "If you or someone. you know has a loved one with dementia , il is important to know that there is help. Knowing that researchers are working lo find a l'llre does not lessen the pain that millions feel every day as they watch their loved ones slipping away," . said McDaniel. , "Sometimes you may share : something that someone . else ;.needs' to hear and sometime's : you will hear just what you are i needing ," she added. "'We are· : rhere to help each other. You are : not alone ." . Submitted photo Rodney Pike Church of God Children's Ministry hosted a Western Round·Up Kid's Crusade on Friday and Saturday, Aug. 8-9. On Friday, the children were entertained with a visit !rom Patti Slayton and her horses of Rio Valley Stables. The Childrens'. Ministry provided indoor western-themed activities.

I had been going through a dark va lie y for the past few years. God wanted all of me, my wi,ll , my everything.

I finally came to a point of total rebellion from God. Now I was not only guilty of arrogance, but disobed.ience as well. "t>oes the LORD "delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the voice of the LORD? To obey is better than sacrifice , and to heed is better than the fat of rams . For rebellion is like the sin of divination. and arrogance like the evil of idolatry." (From I Samuel 15:22, 23 NIV) I even tried to deny the very ex is- all the time ' in the life to come .

II Cor. 12:9 World's Alzheimers Daytobe observed Sunday Bv AMILY PageA7 Friday, September 19, Western rouna-up for kias CHARLENE HOEFLICII. HOEFLICH@MYDAILYSENTINE L.COM POMEROY Sunday is World Alzheimer 's Day and local churches are being asked to observe 71 seconds of silence in honor of those battling the disease and in memory of those· who have lost the battle. The Alzheimer 's Association repot1s that every 71 ' seconds someone develops the disease. Alzheimer ' s Disease is the sixth leading cause of death in the U.S . and comirig up with effective treatment is near and dear to the heart of Lenora Leifheit. RN-BC, the faith community nurse for the Meigs Cooperative Pari sh. who is promoting the observance of World Alzheimer 's Day in churches across the county. She is joining in an area appeal to churches to focu s on Alzheimer 's . the effect it has on . families, caregivers and communities this Sunday, and to pray for a move forward in research that we might someday have ,a world without Alzheimer·s. Currently there are no effec· live treatment s for Alzheimer's . The Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimates thai this year will result in more than 72,000 deaths in the U.S . Current statistics show that 5.2 million Americans are living with Alzheimer·s. that one out of eight baby boomers will develop .the disease and that by 2010 there will be about a halfmillion new cases. Leifheit pointed out the number of those with Alzheimer's . Disease is moving up every year at a time when the occurrence of many other diseases are moving down. To help raise awareness of Alzheimer's, a special stamp will be released by the U.S. Postal Service on Oct. 17. ·In several states memory walks on the theme . ''We're on the move to end Alzheimer's," are taking place next week. Since there has been no announcement of walks iri Meigs County, Leifheit is stressing the importance of recognition in the churches across Meigs County. The Meigs County Council on Aging has a program called "Partners in Care" which provides programming for residents with memory loss twice a week, and has weekly meetings for caregivers where they can share their concerns and know that they are not alone in dealing with . the devastation which Alzheimer's brings to families . The program at the Senior Citizens Center provides respite for caretakers and also a lime when those with the disease can participate in activities . which strengthen ti:Ieir minds and bodies . Kathy McDaniel is the coordinator and those with a family member who might benefit from the program are encouraged to call her at (740) 992-2126. The caregivers support group meets on . Fridays from I: 15 lo 2:15 p.m. at the center. During that time special activities are provided for those with memory loss. "If you or someone. you know has a loved one with dementia , il is important to know that there is help. Knowing that researchers are working lo find a l'llre does not lessen the pain that millions feel every day as they watch their loved ones slipping away," . said McDaniel. , "Sometimes you may share : something that someone . else ;.needs' to hear and sometime's : you will hear just what you are i needing ," she added. "'We are· : rhere to help each other. You are : not alone ." . Submitted photo Rodney Pike Church of God Children's Ministry hosted a Western Round·Up Kid's Crusade on Friday and Saturday, Aug. 8-9.

I finally came to a point of total rebellion from God. Now I was not only guilty of arrogance, but disobed.ience as well. "t>oes the LORD "delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the voice of the LORD? To obey is better than sacrifice , and to heed is better than the fat of rams . For rebellion is like the sin of divination. and arrogance like the evil of idolatry." (From I Samuel 15:22, 23 NIV) I even tried to deny the very ex is- all the time ' in the life to come .

"We 're trying to do everythin~ we can to get him out of hts slump ." Edwards wasn't avatlable for intervi,ews following Sunday night's game and he wasn't in 'the locker room Monday during the 30mmute period · it is open to the media. On Wednesday, he walked onto the practice field with Lewi s and tight end Kellen Winslow, but Edwards wasn't in his normally playful mood as he jomed his teammates. Quarterback Derek Anderson was asked if Edwards -.yas down after his two bad games . . "Anybody is going to be 'upset wi th themselves. as I am when I miss lhrows.'' he said. "That 's kind of the way it goes. It just takes a few plays. get the .ball in his hands a couple of times and he gets that confidence going and that momentum going , and now 1t turns into the old Brayton we know and the one we expect to be out there. "I' ll keep throwing him the ball. I' ve got confidence in him that he's gmng to catch it. He's going to be all right.'' To help his foc us, Edwards will do catchmg drills with balls painted with numbers and colors.

"This team has a lot of hope left. We have a lot to play for. a lot of pride. The Giants started 0-2 (last season). A lot can be clone from .0-;2." So far, the offense has gone nowhere. An offense that features a Pro Bowl MVP throwing to a pa1r of Pro Bowl receivers has reached the end zone only once, and that came on a nmning play. Palmer has the league's lowest passer rating at 37 .I with three interceptions and only 228 yards total T.J. Houshmand zadeh and Chad Ocho Cmco have combined for II catches and 129 yards in two sames. The offenstve line's s tru g ~ ~les have left htm ex posed to jllrring hi ts. He broke his nose 111 the third preseason game when he was hit by two players , and sprained hi s left ankle in the first half of a 2-l10 loss to Tennessee on Sunday when two pass rushers got to him agam. He's had to get riel of the ball (\uicker than usual. playing ngh t into the defense's strategv. "Bdore you name 'the receivers, before you even name the quarterback. 1t all starts with that offensive turn the ball over, and that's how. you'll be eva luated above all other things.'' Tressel said . "We' re go ing to evaluate your footwork. how you carry out your fakes, we're going to evaluate every little thing. But not like .we'll evaluate what we •all those 'btg·three."' Pryor leads the Buckeyes in rushing , but with a scant 129 yards in three games (5.2 per attempt). He. has rushed for one touchdown , but has yet to throw a touchdown pass or an interception. Sometimes it 's risky bustness to play a freshman and bench - or at least severely limit the playing time of - a senior. Teammates are loyal to each other. particularly the guys who have paid their dues for a number of years. Linebacker James Laurinaitis doesn' t think there's a possibility or a mutiny. . "I think coach loves th ts group of seniors. loves th ts tea m.'' he said "He wants tn do whatever is best tor the team. All of us tru st com:h and hi s decisions. v..hether that's playing Todd as the starter and playing h1111 the whole time , or whe th er that's Terre lle the whole time. or a little btl of both. we support him ." Tressel . said Boec kman hasn't exactl y clicked hts heels over the decision . "He's handled it well. It hasn't been what he'd ""11 for. And I'd have been dtsappoi nted if it was:· Tressel sa1d .

"We 're trying to do everythin~ we can to get him out of hts slump ." Edwards wasn't avatlable for intervi,ews following Sunday night's game and he wasn't in 'the locker room Monday during the 30mmute period · it is open to the media. On Wednesday, he walked onto the practice field with Lewi s and tight end Kellen Winslow, but Edwards wasn't in his normally playful mood as he jomed his teammates. Quarterback Derek Anderson was asked if Edwards -.yas down after his two bad games . . "Anybody is going to be 'upset wi th themselves. as I am when I miss lhrows.'' he said. "That 's kind of the way it goes. It just takes a few plays. get the .ball in his hands a couple of times and he gets that confidence going and that momentum going , and now 1t turns into the old Brayton we know and the one we expect to be out there. "I' ll keep throwing him the ball. I' ve got confidence in him that he's gmng to catch it. He's going to be all right.'' To help his foc us, Edwards will do catchmg drills with balls painted with numbers and colors.

Also, Brandon Johnson played , but hi s game showed the effects of his being under the weather. Warren Bissell also played for Wahama.

"This team has a lot of hope left. We have a lot to play for. a lot of pride. The Giants started 0-2 (last season). A lot can be clone from .0-;2." So far, the offense has gone nowhere. An offense that features a Pro Bowl MVP throwing to a pa1r of Pro Bowl receivers has reached the end zone only once, and that came on a nmning play. Palmer has the league's lowest passer rating at 37 .I with three interceptions and only 228 yards total T.J. Houshmand zadeh and Chad Ocho Cmco have combined for II catches and 129 yards in two sames. The offenstve line's s tru g ~ ~les have left htm ex posed to jllrring hi ts. He broke his nose 111 the third preseason game when he was hit by two players , and sprained hi s left ankle in the first half of a 2-l10 loss to Tennessee on Sunday when two pass rushers got to him agam. He's had to get riel of the ball (\uicker than usual. playing ngh t into the defense's strategv. "Bdore you name 'the receivers, before you even name the quarterback. 1t all starts with that offensive turn the ball over, and that's how. you'll be eva luated above all other things.'' Tressel said . "We' re go ing to evaluate your footwork. how you carry out your fakes, we're going to evaluate every little thing. But not like .we'll evaluate what we •all those 'btg·three."' Pryor leads the Buckeyes in rushing , but with a scant 129 yards in three games (5.2 per attempt). He. has rushed for one touchdown , but has yet to throw a touchdown pass or an interception. Sometimes it 's risky bustness to play a freshman and bench - or at least severely limit the playing time of - a senior. Teammates are loyal to each other. particularly the guys who have paid their dues for a number of years. Linebacker James Laurinaitis doesn' t think there's a possibility or a mutiny. . "I think coach loves th ts group of seniors. loves th ts tea m.'' he said "He wants tn do whatever is best tor the team. All of us tru st com:h and hi s decisions. v..hether that's playing Todd as the starter and playing h1111 the whole time , or whe th er that's Terre lle the whole time. or a little btl of both. we support him ."

What happens il righty lhrows in a takeout double? How does that attect the meaning of a twoover-one response? In the United States, this response IS traditionally treated as weak a!id nonlorc· 1ng .

South has only four top tricks: two hearts and two clubs (given tile lead). But .he can get five more tricks from the d1a· mon9' suit. However, if the defender with the dia,mond ace holds up that card until the second round of the suit, declarer will need a dummy entry. Where is the only entry? · AiQht - in clubs.

It does have a similar tongue and groove construction but it is designed to lock together at each joint providing one continuous floating surface . Laminate flooring does not require any nails, staples, or glue to adhere it to the floor. Basically, . laminate flooring has three main components in its construction . The top layer or "wear layer" is simply a photograph of a particular species of wood transferred to melamine laminate similar to those found on countertops. Quite often now manufacturers are putting aluminum oxide in ' the Weiif layer providing a very · tough scratch resistant surface. The middle portion or the "core" is most often made up of HDF or high density fiberboard. This is simply an engineered particle layer mixed with glue that is water resistant (not waterproof) . Typical.ly, the thicker the core, the better the quality of the laminate. The third section is the back- ing . This varies by manufacturer. but normally ranges Irom a paper layer, found on less . expensive styles, to a full plastic laminate which prov 1des the floor with additional water resistance. Some manufaclurers are now even putting a· foam backing on their laminate eliminating the extra slep of putting down a foam underlaymen! before installation. Laminate flooring will come in a varied selection of styles, thicknesses, and textures. They can rang~ from 7mm thick up to a 12mm thickness. As previously mentioned, a thicker product will translate to be.ner quality · and higher pnce. Laminate flooring is also designed to mimic the most popular hardwood spec1es mcluding oak, maple, cherry, as well as many exotics. it_ will also come in various w1dths ranging from 3" to 16" wide.

Laminate flooring does not require any nails, staples, or glue to adhere it to the floor. Basically, . laminate flooring has three main components in its construction . The top layer or "wear layer" is simply a photograph of a particular species of wood transferred to melamine laminate similar to those found on countertops. Quite often now manufacturers are putting aluminum oxide in ' the Weiif layer providing a very · tough scratch resistant surface. The middle portion or the "core" is most often made up of HDF or high density fiberboard. This is simply an engineered particle layer mixed with glue that is water resistant (not waterproof) . Typical.ly, the thicker the core, the better the quality of the laminate. The third section is the back- ing .

Here is a quick checklist to be sure you are followirtg all proper erocedures. • Building Notice: If you construct a building or improvement costing more than $2,000, Ohio Revised Code 57 I 3.17 requires notification be given to the county auditor not later than 60 days after construction has commenced. 'If the building and/or addition are open to the public , see Commer.cial Projects below. • Floodplain Permit: If you are located near a small stream, creek or river you must contact the Floodplain office to verify if a floodplain permit is necessary. Even the placement of mobile homes requires a permit when located in a floodplain area. Don't assume you are NOT in the floodplain because you have never flooded; a simple phone call can de\ermine .this before you · begin. Floodplain maps are available for review in the floodplain office and the county engineer's office. • Sewage System Permit: If you·are installing or replacing a septic system a permit must be obtained from the Gallia County Health Department located in the Service Center on Jackson Pike. • Private Water System Permit: If you are planning to drill a well, install a cistern or holding tank . or develop ·a sprin~ or pond system, this permit IS necessary from the health department.

County Floodplain. • Page 1~ Garage reorganization not something to dread Reconnect from Before you build, don't fo~get to obtain your permits As a reminder to all property owners and contractors, it is important that all requirements are satisfied with all agencies Involved and permits are in place pr.ior to the beginning of construction. Never assume that your contractor is taking .care of these issues for you. It is ultimately · the property owner's responsibility to meet these requirements . It's unfortunate when a structure is built without obtaining the proper permits. This can result in costly changes of building plans and vety unhappy owners. Here is a quick checklist to be sure you are followirtg all proper erocedures. • Building Notice: If you construct a building or improvement costing more than $2,000, Ohio Revised Code 57 I 3.17 requires notification be given to the county auditor not later than 60 days after construction has commenced. 'If the building and/or addition are open to the public , see Commer.cial Projects below. • Floodplain Permit: If you are located near a small stream, creek or river you must contact the Floodplain office to verify if a floodplain permit is necessary. Even the placement of mobile homes requires a permit when located in a floodplain area. Don't assume you are NOT in the floodplain because you have never flooded; a simple phone call can de\ermine .this before you · begin. Floodplain maps are available for review in the floodplain office and the county engineer's office. • Sewage System Permit: If you·are installing or replacing a septic system a permit must be obtained from the Gallia County Health Department located in the Service Center on Jackson Pike. • Private Water System Permit: If you are planning to drill a well, install a cistern or holding tank . or develop ·a sprin~ or pond system, this permit IS necessary from the health department. If the construction involves commercial property than a plumbing permit from the Oh10 Department of Commerce is also required. • 'Excavation of more than one (1) acre; If construction Fall Home lmprovemen~ Friday, September 19,2008 things, like rusted lawnmowers wise for those on a strict budor old carpets, are easier to·get get to consider "redeploying" AP BUSINESS WRITER rid of than things with emo- unwanted cabinets or furniture tional value, like awards and for. use in garage storage, he WESTON, Fla.
