In November, voters rejected a proposed threemill operating levy replacement. AI that lime, Baker said the rejection of the levy created a $26,000 loss in revenue for the 2007 fiscal year. Approval of the levy would actually have generated approximately $50,000, since it was a replacement levy. Projected revenue for 2007 is more than $100,000 less than it was for 2006. because of the levy's failure and the loss of a $90,000 estate tax payment received last year.

Brenda Barnhart, administrator of Mid-Valley Christian School, met with villa~e council' at Monday evenmg's regular meeting to discuss safety concems the school's staff and stu· dents' parents have about traffic passing the school at dismissal time. She requested that the village make the block between Hudson and WahiUI Streets a school zone, · with a reduced speed limit. Barnhart said the school's 45 students cross North Second Avenue to attend chapel and other events at the Rejoicing Life Church, but are accompanied by staff, who try to slow traffic at the intersection while children cross. She said motorists often travel too fast when passing by the storefront school, and have come very close lo striking students because of excessive speed. Parents picking up children at the end of the school ·day must do so from parking spaces in front of the school, she said, and with a growing enrollment, traffic has begun to cause ·more potential problems for the students. Barnhart said the alley behind the school cannot be used as a means of delivering and picking up children be~iluse of the objection of a property owner there . Ma~or Sandy lannarelli asked Village Administrator Bradford Anderson to meet with the street committee and Barnhart to formulate a solution to the problem.

"Give it a chance to work," he sa id~ Facing a political showdown with Democrats and Republicans alike, Bush was unyielding on Iraq in his annual State of the Union address. He also sought to revive his troubled presidency with proposals to expand health msurance coverage and to slash gasoline consumption by 20 percent in a decade. Democrats - and even some Republicans scoffed at his Iraq · policy. Unmoved by Bush's appeal, Democrats said the House : and Senate would vote on : resolutions of disapproval · of the troop buildup. . "We need a new direc. tion," said freshman Sen. Jim Webb, picked by the · Democrats to deliver their : TV response. ''The majority : of the nation no longer sup. ports the way this war is being fought; nor does the majority of our military," . said Webb, a Vietnam veter: an opposed to Bush's invasion of Iraq. Republican Sen. Norm Coleman of Minnesota, also took issue with Bush. "I can't tell you what the path to success is, but it's not what the president has put on the table," he said. It was a night of political theater as Bush went before the first Democratic-controlled Congress in a dozen years with his lowest approval ratings in polls. Democratic Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California, the frrst woman to lead the House, sat over Bush's shoulder, next to Vice President Dick Cheney. Reaching out to the Democrats, Bush opened with a tribute to Pelosi and paused to shake her hand. He also asked for prayers for Democratic Sen. Tim Johnson, hospitalized for more than a month after suffering a brain hemorrhage, and Republican Georgia Rep. Charlie Norwood, suffenng from cancer. . The speech audience included up to a dozen House and Senate members who have announced they are running for president or are considered possible contenders. Bush divided his 49minute address between domestic and foreign issues, but the war was topic No. I. Pelosi set the tone for Democrats. She sat silently and did not applaud as Bush AP photo President Bush smiles while being applauded by Vice President Dick Cheney, left, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi prior to delivering his annual State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress on ~apitol Hill in Washington Tuesday. warned of high stakes in Iraq and said American forces must not step back before Baghdad is secure. With Congress poised to deliver a stinging rebuke on his troop incre~s_z he made a personal plea t"''oawmakers. "I have spoken with many of you in person. I respect you and the arguments you made," Bush said. "We went into this largely united, in our assumptions and in our convictions. And whatever you voted for, you did not vote for failure." ''Our country is pursuing a new strategy in Iraq and I ask you to give it a chance to work," Bush said. "And I ask you to support our troops in the .~eld and those on thetr way. Pelosi and Senate Ml\iority Leader Harry Reid §ave Bush a swift answer. 'While the president contin- . ues to ignore the will of the couotry, Congress will not ignore this president's failed policy," they said in a joint statement after his address. "His plan will receive an up-or-down vote in both the House and Senate, and we will continue to hold him accountable for changing course in Iraq." Bush said the Ira'l war had changed dramatically with the outbreak of sectarian warfare and reprisals. "This is not the fight we entered in Iraq, but it is the fight we are in," the president said. "Every one of us wishes that this war were over and won. Yet it would not be like us to leave our promises unkept, our friends abandoned and our own security at risk. "Ladies and llentlemen: On this day, at thts hour, it is still within our power to shape the outcome of this battle," the president said. "Let us find our resolve and turn events toward victory." Key Republicans have joined Democrat~ in drafting resolutions of opposition to the plans he announced two weeks ago to send an additiona! 21 ,500 troops to Iraq. Bush said his approach had the be.~t chance to succeed, but clearly many lawmakers - and overwhelming majority of Americans - disagreed. ."Many in this chamber understand that America must not fail in Iraq because you understand that the consequences of failure would be ~rievous and far reaching, ' the president said. "If American forces step back before Baghdad is secure, the Iraqi government would be overrun by extremists on all sides." In such a case, he forecast "an epic battle," Shiite extremtsts backed by Iran a~ainst Sunni extremists atded by al-Qaida and supporters of Saddam Hussein's government, leading to violence that could spread across the Middle East. "For America, this is a nightmare scenario," Bush said. On domestic matters, he pressed Congress to help find ways to overhaul entitlements such as Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid before they impose huge problems for future generations. "Somehow we have not found it in ourselves to act," Canadian pig farmer charged with 26 deaths calls allegations·'hogwash' JEREMY HAINSWORTH BY ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER NEW WESTMINSTER, A British Columbia Canadian pig farmer whom prosecutors said confessed to killing 49 women told police in a videotaped interview shown to jurors Tuesday that the allegations against him were "hogwash," yet concedes he's "a bad dude." Roben Pickton, 56, is charged with killing 26 women, mostly prostitutes and drug addicts who vanished from a drug-ridden Vancouver neighborhood in the 1990s. He has pleaded not guilty to the ftrSt six counts. A separate trial will be held for the other 20 murder charges. If convicted. Pickton faces life in prison. Canada abolished the death penalty in 1976. · The jurors in the most sensational murder trial Canada has ever faced began watching ll hours of videotaped interviews Tuesday. A day earlier, prosecutors said the interviews wouJd go on to show Pickton telling an undercover police officer that he had killed 49 women and intended to make it "an even 50" before he got sloppy and was caught. In the interview with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police detachment in Surrey, British Columbia, on Feb. 23, 2002 , a disheveled Pickton laughs when Stall Sgt. Bill Fordy tells him he's being investigated for "upwards of 50 other disar,pearances and or murders. ' . "In your own words, Rob, can you explain to me what that means to you?" Fordy asks Pickton. "What it means to me. Pickton Hogwash," answered. ''I'm just a working $UY. a plain working guy ts all I am," he says. "I'm just a pig man." , He then goes on to blurt out, "I'm a bad dude." The prosecution on Monday laid out some of the gruesome evidence against Pickton. including finding skulls, teeth and DNA of the six women in the freezer. slaughterhouse and troughs at Pickton· s 17 -acre pig farm outside of Vancouver. Defense lawyer Peter Ritchie countered that Pickton did not kill or participate in the slayings of the six women. He asked them to pay close attention to Pickton's demeanor when they watch the videotapes, in particular his level of sophistication and intellect. Investigators said Pickton and his brother David threw drunken raves with prostitutes and drugs on the fami ly's pig farm. After Robert Pickton's arrest in February 2002, health officials issued a tainted meat advisory to neighbors who may have bought pork from his farm. concerned that it may have contained human remains. David Pickton, who bas not been accused in the murders, .told The Associated Press in December that he intended to raise cattle on the property, now >urrounded by townhouses. The tirst trial covers the deaths of Sereena Abotsway, Mona Wilson. Andrea Joesbury, Brenda Wolfe, Georgina Papin and Mamie Frey. Though some 300 media have been accredited for the trial and the courthouse in the suburb of Vancouver was the scene of chaos Monday. there were 10 empty seats in the 50-seat courtroom on Tuesday as some family members said they could not stomach further testimony. he said. "So let us work together and do it now." On immigration, too, the president made a plea to lawmakers that he has made before, seeking comprehensive changes including a guest worker program, that go beyond tougher border controls. Members of his own party were the main obstacle to success in that area - a fact Bush acknowledged even as he pressed for a better . result now than Capitol Hill is· run by Democrats more amenable to his ideas. "Convictions run deep in this Capitol when it comes to immigration," he said. "Let us have a serious, civil and conclusive debate." Bush said his energy proposals would cut Amencan tmports by the equivalent of 75 percent of the oil coming from the Middle East. His . prescription, as always, relied primarily on market incentives and technological advances - not government mandates. "America is on the verge of technological breakthroughs that will enable us to live our lives less dependent on oil," he said. "These technologies will help us become better stewards of the environmont - and they will help us to confront the serious challenge of global climate change." Bush called for changing the tax code to encourage more people not covered by medical insurance to buy a plan, and to discourage others from keeping the most costly health care plans. Under Bush's proposal, employer-financed health care benefits would be considered taxable income after a deduction of $15,000 for families and $7,500 for individuals. Those buying their own plan would get the same deductions on their taxes. The White House said 80 percent of workers with health insurance through their jobs would see a tax cut as a result of the change. But about 20 percent would see a tax increase - those workers whose health Insurance cost more than the standard deduction. "With this reform, more than 100 million men, women and children who are now covered by employer-provided insurance will benefit from tower tax bills," Bush said. ·"At the same time, this reform will level the playing field for those who do not get health insurance through their job." The administration sought to make Bush's energy initiatives - in particular a 20 percent cut in gasoline usage by 20 I 7 - an eye-catching centerpiece of his address, the one major element not revealed until hours before the speech. "It is in our vital interest to diversify America's energy supply, and the way forward is through technology," Bush said. The cut would be achieved primarily through a sharp escalation in the amount of ethanol and other alternative fuels -that the government mandates must be blended into the fuel sup, ply. The rest would come from raising fuel economy standards for passenger cars, a plan that Bush has proposed in the past but failed to win from Congress. Acknowledging that some would say such a drastic increase in alternative fuels is unrealistic, the White House argued that the new mandate which would need approval from Congress would spur investments in the industry and give technological research a boost. · While setting cutback goals, the president spumed appeals from environmentalists and some major corporations to impose . mandalory ceilings on U.S. greenhouse gas emissions in hopes of slowing climate change.

Defense seeks to bar evidence, statements in microwave-baby case BY JAMES HANNAH ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER DAYTON - The attorney for a woman authorities suspect of killing her month-old daughter by putting her in a microwave oven said an arrest warrant was defective and asked a court Tuesday to bar any physical evidence and statements from being used in her trial. The motion to Suppress in China Arnold's case was among 70 motions filed by defense anorney Jon Paul Rion in Montgomery County Common Pleas Court. Arnold appeared brietly bt!fore Judge Jack Davis. who set a pretrial hearing for April 27 o n that motion. Arnold, 26, is charged with''aggravated murder in the Aug . 30, 2005. death of her daughte r. Paris Talley. She has pleaded not guilty. The coroner concluded that the injuries to Arnold's babv could have been caused only by the child being cooked in a microwave oven, according to Montgomery County Prosecutor Mathias Heck Jr. Investigators have said evidence that includes highheat internal injuries and the abse nce of external burn marks on ttle baby were consistent with a microwave. In his motion, Rion argued that the police's request for the arrest warrant contained inconsistent statements and omitted information, denying the judge who issued the warrant a true evaluation of the circumstances. Rfon said the child's father, Terrell Talley, at first told police he believed Arnold was innocent and then changed his story and tried to place the blame on her. And Rion said the warrant failed to mention the significance of alleged DNA cited as a reason to arrest Arnold. Tallev could not be reached for comment. His phone number has been disconnected. Talley has denied any involvement in the child's death, and no charges have been filed against him. Rion asked the court to bar any evidence that was seized, any observations made by police and any statements that may have been made by Arnold after her arrest, which he said violated his client's constitutional rights. "The defendant never told anv law enforcement officer that she had any involvement whatsoever in the alleged crime," Rion wrote. "She has maintained her innocence from tbe beginning." Rion declined comment on the motions. Davi s has barred attorneys and prosecutors from speaking publicly about the case. Rion also asked the cnun to di smiss the death-penal ty specifications in the case. to close pretrial heat:ings to the media, and to prov ide the derense with fund s to retain expert witnesses. Rion said DNA experts and met:hanical engineers haw been hired and/or consulted by prosecutors.

"Give it a chance to work," he sa id~ Facing a political showdown with Democrats and Republicans alike, Bush was unyielding on Iraq in his annual State of the Union address. He also sought to revive his troubled presidency with proposals to expand health msurance coverage and to slash gasoline consumption by 20 percent in a decade. Democrats - and even some Republicans scoffed at his Iraq · policy. Unmoved by Bush's appeal, Democrats said the House : and Senate would vote on : resolutions of disapproval · of the troop buildup. . "We need a new direc. tion," said freshman Sen. Jim Webb, picked by the · Democrats to deliver their : TV response. ''The majority : of the nation no longer sup. ports the way this war is being fought; nor does the majority of our military," . said Webb, a Vietnam veter: an opposed to Bush's invasion of Iraq. Republican Sen. Norm Coleman of Minnesota, also took issue with Bush. "I can't tell you what the path to success is, but it's not what the president has put on the table," he said. It was a night of political theater as Bush went before the first Democratic-controlled Congress in a dozen years with his lowest approval ratings in polls. Democratic Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California, the frrst woman to lead the House, sat over Bush's shoulder, next to Vice President Dick Cheney. Reaching out to the Democrats, Bush opened with a tribute to Pelosi and paused to shake her hand. He also asked for prayers for Democratic Sen. Tim Johnson, hospitalized for more than a month after suffering a brain hemorrhage, and Republican Georgia Rep. Charlie Norwood, suffenng from cancer. . The speech audience included up to a dozen House and Senate members who have announced they are running for president or are considered possible contenders. Bush divided his 49minute address between domestic and foreign issues, but the war was topic No. I. Pelosi set the tone for Democrats. She sat silently and did not applaud as Bush AP photo President Bush smiles while being applauded by Vice President Dick Cheney, left, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi prior to delivering his annual State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress on ~apitol Hill in Washington Tuesday. warned of high stakes in Iraq and said American forces must not step back before Baghdad is secure. With Congress poised to deliver a stinging rebuke on his troop incre~s_z he made a personal plea t"''oawmakers. "I have spoken with many of you in person. I respect you and the arguments you made," Bush said. "We went into this largely united, in our assumptions and in our convictions. And whatever you voted for, you did not vote for failure." ''Our country is pursuing a new strategy in Iraq and I ask you to give it a chance to work," Bush said. "And I ask you to support our troops in the .~eld and those on thetr way. Pelosi and Senate Ml\iority Leader Harry Reid §ave Bush a swift answer. 'While the president contin- . ues to ignore the will of the couotry, Congress will not ignore this president's failed policy," they said in a joint statement after his address. "His plan will receive an up-or-down vote in both the House and Senate, and we will continue to hold him accountable for changing course in Iraq." Bush said the Ira'l war had changed dramatically with the outbreak of sectarian warfare and reprisals. "This is not the fight we entered in Iraq, but it is the fight we are in," the president said. "Every one of us wishes that this war were over and won. Yet it would not be like us to leave our promises unkept, our friends abandoned and our own security at risk. "Ladies and llentlemen: On this day, at thts hour, it is still within our power to shape the outcome of this battle," the president said. "Let us find our resolve and turn events toward victory." Key Republicans have joined Democrat~ in drafting resolutions of opposition to the plans he announced two weeks ago to send an additiona! 21 ,500 troops to Iraq. Bush said his approach had the be.~t chance to succeed, but clearly many lawmakers - and overwhelming majority of Americans - disagreed. ."Many in this chamber understand that America must not fail in Iraq because you understand that the consequences of failure would be ~rievous and far reaching, ' the president said. "If American forces step back before Baghdad is secure, the Iraqi government would be overrun by extremists on all sides." In such a case, he forecast "an epic battle," Shiite extremtsts backed by Iran a~ainst Sunni extremists atded by al-Qaida and supporters of Saddam Hussein's government, leading to violence that could spread across the Middle East. "For America, this is a nightmare scenario," Bush said. On domestic matters, he pressed Congress to help find ways to overhaul entitlements such as Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid before they impose huge problems for future generations. "Somehow we have not found it in ourselves to act," Canadian pig farmer charged with 26 deaths calls allegations·'hogwash' JEREMY HAINSWORTH BY ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER NEW WESTMINSTER, A British Columbia Canadian pig farmer whom prosecutors said confessed to killing 49 women told police in a videotaped interview shown to jurors Tuesday that the allegations against him were "hogwash," yet concedes he's "a bad dude." Roben Pickton, 56, is charged with killing 26 women, mostly prostitutes and drug addicts who vanished from a drug-ridden Vancouver neighborhood in the 1990s. He has pleaded not guilty to the ftrSt six counts. A separate trial will be held for the other 20 murder charges. If convicted. Pickton faces life in prison. Canada abolished the death penalty in 1976. · The jurors in the most sensational murder trial Canada has ever faced began watching ll hours of videotaped interviews Tuesday. A day earlier, prosecutors said the interviews wouJd go on to show Pickton telling an undercover police officer that he had killed 49 women and intended to make it "an even 50" before he got sloppy and was caught. In the interview with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police detachment in Surrey, British Columbia, on Feb. 23, 2002 , a disheveled Pickton laughs when Stall Sgt. Bill Fordy tells him he's being investigated for "upwards of 50 other disar,pearances and or murders. ' . "In your own words, Rob, can you explain to me what that means to you?" Fordy asks Pickton. "What it means to me. Pickton Hogwash," answered. ''I'm just a working $UY. a plain working guy ts all I am," he says. "I'm just a pig man." , He then goes on to blurt out, "I'm a bad dude." The prosecution on Monday laid out some of the gruesome evidence against Pickton. including finding skulls, teeth and DNA of the six women in the freezer. slaughterhouse and troughs at Pickton· s 17 -acre pig farm outside of Vancouver. Defense lawyer Peter Ritchie countered that Pickton did not kill or participate in the slayings of the six women. He asked them to pay close attention to Pickton's demeanor when they watch the videotapes, in particular his level of sophistication and intellect. Investigators said Pickton and his brother David threw drunken raves with prostitutes and drugs on the fami ly's pig farm. After Robert Pickton's arrest in February 2002, health officials issued a tainted meat advisory to neighbors who may have bought pork from his farm. concerned that it may have contained human remains. David Pickton, who bas not been accused in the murders, .told The Associated Press in December that he intended to raise cattle on the property, now >urrounded by townhouses. The tirst trial covers the deaths of Sereena Abotsway, Mona Wilson. Andrea Joesbury, Brenda Wolfe, Georgina Papin and Mamie Frey. Though some 300 media have been accredited for the trial and the courthouse in the suburb of Vancouver was the scene of chaos Monday. there were 10 empty seats in the 50-seat courtroom on Tuesday as some family members said they could not stomach further testimony. he said. "So let us work together and do it now." On immigration, too, the president made a plea to lawmakers that he has made before, seeking comprehensive changes including a guest worker program, that go beyond tougher border controls. Members of his own party were the main obstacle to success in that area - a fact Bush acknowledged even as he pressed for a better . result now than Capitol Hill is· run by Democrats more amenable to his ideas. "Convictions run deep in this Capitol when it comes to immigration," he said. "Let us have a serious, civil and conclusive debate." Bush said his energy proposals would cut Amencan tmports by the equivalent of 75 percent of the oil coming from the Middle East. His . prescription, as always, relied primarily on market incentives and technological advances - not government mandates. "America is on the verge of technological breakthroughs that will enable us to live our lives less dependent on oil," he said. "These technologies will help us become better stewards of the environmont - and they will help us to confront the serious challenge of global climate change." Bush called for changing the tax code to encourage more people not covered by medical insurance to buy a plan, and to discourage others from keeping the most costly health care plans. Under Bush's proposal, employer-financed health care benefits would be considered taxable income after a deduction of $15,000 for families and $7,500 for individuals. Those buying their own plan would get the same deductions on their taxes. The White House said 80 percent of workers with health insurance through their jobs would see a tax cut as a result of the change. But about 20 percent would see a tax increase - those workers whose health Insurance cost more than the standard deduction. "With this reform, more than 100 million men, women and children who are now covered by employer-provided insurance will benefit from tower tax bills," Bush said. ·"At the same time, this reform will level the playing field for those who do not get health insurance through their job." The administration sought to make Bush's energy initiatives - in particular a 20 percent cut in gasoline usage by 20 I 7 - an eye-catching centerpiece of his address, the one major element not revealed until hours before the speech. "It is in our vital interest to diversify America's energy supply, and the way forward is through technology," Bush said. The cut would be achieved primarily through a sharp escalation in the amount of ethanol and other alternative fuels -that the government mandates must be blended into the fuel sup, ply. The rest would come from raising fuel economy standards for passenger cars, a plan that Bush has proposed in the past but failed to win from Congress. Acknowledging that some would say such a drastic increase in alternative fuels is unrealistic, the White House argued that the new mandate which would need approval from Congress would spur investments in the industry and give technological research a boost. · While setting cutback goals, the president spumed appeals from environmentalists and some major corporations to impose . mandalory ceilings on U.S. greenhouse gas emissions in hopes of slowing climate change.

Defense seeks to bar evidence, statements in microwave-baby case BY JAMES HANNAH ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER DAYTON - The attorney for a woman authorities suspect of killing her month-old daughter by putting her in a microwave oven said an arrest warrant was defective and asked a court Tuesday to bar any physical evidence and statements from being used in her trial. The motion to Suppress in China Arnold's case was among 70 motions filed by defense anorney Jon Paul Rion in Montgomery County Common Pleas Court. Arnold appeared brietly bt!fore Judge Jack Davis. who set a pretrial hearing for April 27 o n that motion. Arnold, 26, is charged with''aggravated murder in the Aug . 30, 2005. death of her daughte r. Paris Talley. She has pleaded not guilty. The coroner concluded that the injuries to Arnold's babv could have been caused only by the child being cooked in a microwave oven, according to Montgomery County Prosecutor Mathias Heck Jr. Investigators have said evidence that includes highheat internal injuries and the abse nce of external burn marks on ttle baby were consistent with a microwave. In his motion, Rion argued that the police's request for the arrest warrant contained inconsistent statements and omitted information, denying the judge who issued the warrant a true evaluation of the circumstances. Rfon said the child's father, Terrell Talley, at first told police he believed Arnold was innocent and then changed his story and tried to place the blame on her. And Rion said the warrant failed to mention the significance of alleged DNA cited as a reason to arrest Arnold. Tallev could not be reached for comment. His phone number has been disconnected. Talley has denied any involvement in the child's death, and no charges have been filed against him. Rion asked the court to bar any evidence that was seized, any observations made by police and any statements that may have been made by Arnold after her arrest, which he said violated his client's constitutional rights. "The defendant never told anv law enforcement officer that she had any involvement whatsoever in the alleged crime," Rion wrote. "She has maintained her innocence from tbe beginning." Rion declined comment on the motions. Davi s has barred attorneys and prosecutors from speaking publicly about the case.

Since life is growth and motion. a fixed point of view kills anybody who has one."- Brooks Atkinson, American drama critic ( 1894- 1984 ). LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Senator Barac k Obama has said that too many fathers "engage in childish things . (They) are more concerned about what they want than what's good for other people." Sound familiar? Seems that the Illinois Democrat - who is today's cultural and political pheuomenon - has taken a c u~ from Saint Paul. Obama, as the first major black presidential candidate in recellt history, has an unprecedented opportunity: To lead a fatherhood revolution. And he knows it. Speaking at Christ ill Universal Temple Chicago on Father's Day 2005, he preached the Word and channeled Bill Cosby, known these days less for his comedy than for his lectures to black men about taking responsibility as fathers and husbands. Obama said, '"There are a lot of folks, a lot of brothers, walking around, and they look like men . And they're tall , and they've got whiskers - might even have sired a child. But it 's not clear to me that they're full-grown men." It 's not shocking that Obama would latch onto such a message - and leadership role. Now that he's launched a presidential exploratory committee he knows it's smart politics. But it's also a natural for him. In recent weeks the press spent a few days talking about Obama's "coke problem." In his 1995 book, "Dreams from My Father," with us with a skilled gloss. He makes clear that he values the so-called right to privacy but that reasonable people can argue about abortion. He's not going to runt against Planned Parenthpod and he 's going to vote with them but knows they don 't have all the answers. His voice is important. Even if, as Kay Hymowitz write' in her new book, "Marriage and Caste in America." "bringing a reliable dad into the home of the 80 percent or so of inner city children growing up with a si ngle mother is a task of such psychological and sociological complexity as to rival democracy-building in Iraq." During the 2006 elections, campaign staffers would frequently relate to me how Maryland parents would bring their children to events for Senate candidate Michael Steele. They would say that they simply wanted their kids to see and hear Steele, a· black Republican, a husband and father, who leads by example. Steele lost the race, but he's also a winner - a straight-talking role model. As with fatherhood, absence is the only sure-fire way to lose - a message surely not lost on Barack Obama.

HURST ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER BAGHDAD, Iraq - A U.S. security company helicopter crashed Tuesday as it tlew over a dangerous Sunni neighborhood in the central Baghdad where insurgellts and Iraqi security troops fought a prolonged llunbattle, and a U.S. offic1al said five American civilians on board were killed. A senior Iraqi military official said the aircraft was shot down. but this was disputed by a U.S. military official in Washington. The Iraqi said the helicopter was hit by a machine gunner over the Fadhil neighborhood on the east side of the Tigris River, while the American official said there was no indication in initial reports that the aircraft, owned by Blackwater USA. had been shot down. A U.S. ofticial in Baghdad had said there was no information to substantiate reports that the bodies had been shot. All the officials demanded anonymity because the details had not been made public. The Americans said they did not know what caused the aircraft to crash. Blackwater USA confirmed that five Americans employed by the North Carolina-based company as security professionals were killed. The statement from spokeswoman Anne l)'rrell did not provide identilles or any details of the fighting . The New York Times reponed the helicopter went down as it came under attack and plummeted to the pavement through a tangle of electrical wires, but it was unclear if the crash resulted from gunfire. the wires or an effort to land. unnamed Quoting American ofticials, the newspaper said the helicopter's four-ma'n crew was killed alnng with a gunner on a second Blackwater helicopter. It said one military official said that at least four of the victims had suffered gunshot wounds to t'he head, raising the prospect that some of them had been shot Oil the ground. Witnesses in the Fadhil neighborhood told The Associated Press that they saw the helicopter go down after gunmen on the ground opened fire, possibly strik· ing pilot or co-pilot or both .

The helicopter was believed to have been flying escort above a VIP coiwoy on the ground as it headed away from the heavily fortified Green Zone to an undisclosed destination. A report in the Washington Post, quoting unnamed U.S. officials, said one of the Blackwater victims was killed as he traveled with the convoy on the ground. Blackwater USA provides security for State Department officials in Iraq, trams military units from around the world. and works for corporate clients. Katy Helvenston, mother of Scott Helvenston, a Blackwater employee who died in March 2004. said Thesday's crash "just breaks my heart." 'T m so sick of these kids dying," she said. Helvenston was killed, along with Jerko "Jerry" Wesley J.K. Zovko, Balalona, and Michael R. Teague, when a frenzied mob of insurgents ambushed a supfliY convoy they were esconmg through Fallujah. The insurgents burned and mutilated the guards and strung two of the bodies from a bridge. The gruesome scene was filmed and broadcast worldwide, leading the U.S. military to launch a three-week siege of Fallujah.

The number of workers unemployed in Ohio in December was 335.000, up from 32 1.000 in November. The number of unemployed has decreased by 11.000 in the past year from 346,000.

I Th e AssocitJrt'd Press contributed to this stun.) according to the Web site iCasualties.org, which tmcks foreign troop fatalities in Iraq. Of those, 20 were Americans, and two were Polish. The crash of the small surveillance helicopter, believed to be a version of the Hughes Defender that was developed during the Vietnam War, was the second associated with the U.S. war effort in Iraq in four days. A U.S. Army Blackhawk helicopter went down Saturday northeast of Baghdad, killing all 12 service members on board. The American military in Baghdad has refused to confirm a report by a Pentagon official that debris at the crash site indicated the heli· copter was shot out of the air by a surface-to-air missile. Relatively few U.S. aircraft have been shot down during the war despite hundreds, perhaps thousands of flights above Iraq. Helicopters typically flow fast and low over populated areas, making it extremely difficult for militant fighters to draw a bead with shoulder-fired missiles. U.S. fighter jets normally fly at ~ery high altitudes and usually can be heard screaming through the skies but remain invisible to the naked eye. Civilian aircraft that serve Baghdad International Airport use avoidance tech· niques that included landing in a steep. circular descent from nearly straight overhead the runways. Takeoffs are achieved with the same technique until passenger jets are out of missile range. The Blackwater aircraft was at least the 14th helicopter to go dowll si nce the war began in March 2003. The worst incidellt occurred Jan . 26. 2005, when a U.S. transport helicopter crashed in a sandstorm in western Iraq, killing 30 Marines and. a U.S. sailor. According tn insurance claims on file at the Def~artment of Labor. 770 civ11ian contractors have been killed in Iraq since the war began in March 2003, through December 31, 2006. Additionally, 7,761 civilian contractors have been injured in the same time period, according to claims on file. Hours before President Bush's annual State of the Union address, the U.S. mil· · itary announced three more troop · deaths. a Marine killed Sunday and two soldiers killed on Monday. That raised the three-day toll since Saturday to 31. Iraqi police and morgue officials, meanwhile, reponed at least 57 people were killed in sectanan violence nationwide on Thesday, including 27 bodies. most showing signs of torture, that were dumped in Baghdad. The U.S. military also reported it had detained four suspects in the Jan. 20 sneak attack on U.S. forces during a security meeting with their . Iraqi counterparts in the Shi1te holy city of Karbala. The statement said the four were captured two days afterward on a tip from a resident of the city south of Baghdad. It said the four were found in a house near where SUVs used in the attack had beell abandoned after the insurgent fighters fled.

Since life is growth and motion. a fixed point of view kills anybody who has one."- Brooks Atkinson, American drama critic ( 1894- 1984 ). LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Senator Barac k Obama has said that too many fathers "engage in childish things . (They) are more concerned about what they want than what's good for other people." Sound familiar? Seems that the Illinois Democrat - who is today's cultural and political pheuomenon - has taken a c u~ from Saint Paul. Obama, as the first major black presidential candidate in recellt history, has an unprecedented opportunity: To lead a fatherhood revolution. And he knows it. Speaking at Christ ill Universal Temple Chicago on Father's Day 2005, he preached the Word and channeled Bill Cosby, known these days less for his comedy than for his lectures to black men about taking responsibility as fathers and husbands. Obama said, '"There are a lot of folks, a lot of brothers, walking around, and they look like men . And they're tall , and they've got whiskers - might even have sired a child. But it 's not clear to me that they're full-grown men." It 's not shocking that Obama would latch onto such a message - and leadership role. Now that he's launched a presidential exploratory committee he knows it's smart politics. But it's also a natural for him. In recent weeks the press spent a few days talking about Obama's "coke problem." In his 1995 book, "Dreams from My Father," with us with a skilled gloss. He makes clear that he values the so-called right to privacy but that reasonable people can argue about abortion. He's not going to runt against Planned Parenthpod and he 's going to vote with them but knows they don 't have all the answers. His voice is important. Even if, as Kay Hymowitz write' in her new book, "Marriage and Caste in America." "bringing a reliable dad into the home of the 80 percent or so of inner city children growing up with a si ngle mother is a task of such psychological and sociological complexity as to rival democracy-building in Iraq." During the 2006 elections, campaign staffers would frequently relate to me how Maryland parents would bring their children to events for Senate candidate Michael Steele. They would say that they simply wanted their kids to see and hear Steele, a· black Republican, a husband and father, who leads by example. Steele lost the race, but he's also a winner - a straight-talking role model. As with fatherhood, absence is the only sure-fire way to lose - a message surely not lost on Barack Obama.

HURST ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER BAGHDAD, Iraq - A U.S. security company helicopter crashed Tuesday as it tlew over a dangerous Sunni neighborhood in the central Baghdad where insurgellts and Iraqi security troops fought a prolonged llunbattle, and a U.S. offic1al said five American civilians on board were killed. A senior Iraqi military official said the aircraft was shot down. but this was disputed by a U.S. military official in Washington. The Iraqi said the helicopter was hit by a machine gunner over the Fadhil neighborhood on the east side of the Tigris River, while the American official said there was no indication in initial reports that the aircraft, owned by Blackwater USA. had been shot down. A U.S. ofticial in Baghdad had said there was no information to substantiate reports that the bodies had been shot. All the officials demanded anonymity because the details had not been made public. The Americans said they did not know what caused the aircraft to crash. Blackwater USA confirmed that five Americans employed by the North Carolina-based company as security professionals were killed. The statement from spokeswoman Anne l)'rrell did not provide identilles or any details of the fighting . The New York Times reponed the helicopter went down as it came under attack and plummeted to the pavement through a tangle of electrical wires, but it was unclear if the crash resulted from gunfire. the wires or an effort to land. unnamed Quoting American ofticials, the newspaper said the helicopter's four-ma'n crew was killed alnng with a gunner on a second Blackwater helicopter. It said one military official said that at least four of the victims had suffered gunshot wounds to t'he head, raising the prospect that some of them had been shot Oil the ground. Witnesses in the Fadhil neighborhood told The Associated Press that they saw the helicopter go down after gunmen on the ground opened fire, possibly strik· ing pilot or co-pilot or both .

The helicopter was believed to have been flying escort above a VIP coiwoy on the ground as it headed away from the heavily fortified Green Zone to an undisclosed destination. A report in the Washington Post, quoting unnamed U.S. officials, said one of the Blackwater victims was killed as he traveled with the convoy on the ground. Blackwater USA provides security for State Department officials in Iraq, trams military units from around the world. and works for corporate clients. Katy Helvenston, mother of Scott Helvenston, a Blackwater employee who died in March 2004. said Thesday's crash "just breaks my heart." 'T m so sick of these kids dying," she said. Helvenston was killed, along with Jerko "Jerry" Wesley J.K. Zovko, Balalona, and Michael R. Teague, when a frenzied mob of insurgents ambushed a supfliY convoy they were esconmg through Fallujah. The insurgents burned and mutilated the guards and strung two of the bodies from a bridge.

The crash of the small surveillance helicopter, believed to be a version of the Hughes Defender that was developed during the Vietnam War, was the second associated with the U.S. war effort in Iraq in four days. A U.S. Army Blackhawk helicopter went down Saturday northeast of Baghdad, killing all 12 service members on board. The American military in Baghdad has refused to confirm a report by a Pentagon official that debris at the crash site indicated the heli· copter was shot out of the air by a surface-to-air missile. Relatively few U.S. aircraft have been shot down during the war despite hundreds, perhaps thousands of flights above Iraq. Helicopters typically flow fast and low over populated areas, making it extremely difficult for militant fighters to draw a bead with shoulder-fired missiles. U.S. fighter jets normally fly at ~ery high altitudes and usually can be heard screaming through the skies but remain invisible to the naked eye. Civilian aircraft that serve Baghdad International Airport use avoidance tech· niques that included landing in a steep. circular descent from nearly straight overhead the runways. Takeoffs are achieved with the same technique until passenger jets are out of missile range. The Blackwater aircraft was at least the 14th helicopter to go dowll si nce the war began in March 2003. The worst incidellt occurred Jan . 26. 2005, when a U.S. transport helicopter crashed in a sandstorm in western Iraq, killing 30 Marines and. a U.S. sailor. According tn insurance claims on file at the Def~artment of Labor. 770 civ11ian contractors have been killed in Iraq since the war began in March 2003, through December 31, 2006. Additionally, 7,761 civilian contractors have been injured in the same time period, according to claims on file. Hours before President Bush's annual State of the Union address, the U.S. mil· · itary announced three more troop · deaths. a Marine killed Sunday and two soldiers killed on Monday. That raised the three-day toll since Saturday to 31. Iraqi police and morgue officials, meanwhile, reponed at least 57 people were killed in sectanan violence nationwide on Thesday, including 27 bodies. most showing signs of torture, that were dumped in Baghdad. The U.S. military also reported it had detained four suspects in the Jan. 20 sneak attack on U.S. forces during a security meeting with their . Iraqi counterparts in the Shi1te holy city of Karbala. The statement said the four were captured two days afterward on a tip from a resident of the city south of Baghdad. It said the four were found in a house near where SUVs used in the attack had beell abandoned after the insurgent fighters fled.

Col Owens, senior attorney for the Legal Aid Society of Greater Cincinnati, said Tuesday that the program called Ohio Healthy Workers would rely on a sliding public-private payment scale aimed at e nt icing small businesses and selfemployed bosses to provide insurance - and making it atlordable enough for employees to buy. The proposal is modeled on aspects of recent health care initiatives in states including Massachusetts , Maine, Illino is and New Mexico, but rejects the idea o f uni versa I health care because Ohio's GOP-led Legislature has opposed expanding public subs idies, Owens said. Those without insurance tend to be se lf-e mployed or work for small businesses who can't afford to provide coverage, he said. "It's our view that mandates are not going to fly in Ohio, both politically and economically," said Owens, who helped craft the plan. " If ~u don't have mandates you have to make it attra tve to both employers and consumers to come in." The plan would ask employers to cover between 40 pereent and 60 percent of premium costs, with the shares paid by the employee and by state and federal insuranceJ'rograms flu ctuating base on the worker's income. A key to keeping the program's price tag down would be that doctors and hospitals would keep their charges for program participants near current Medicaid level s, which would cost money for some patients but allow others to carry insurance who now don't, Owens said. He estimates the program could provide health coverage to 425,000 of the state's 1.2 million uninsured . The proposal is similar, though not identical, to Gov. Ted Strickland's health care blueprint - a nd its backers are encouraged by early positive re sponses from insurers, health care providers, small business mterests and lawmakers. The plan emerges as Strickland is soliciting ideas for tackling the health care crisis that faces Ohio and the nation.

Col Owens, senior attorney for the Legal Aid Society of Greater Cincinnati, said Tuesday that the program called Ohio Healthy Workers would rely on a sliding public-private payment scale aimed at e nt icing small businesses and selfemployed bosses to provide insurance - and making it atlordable enough for employees to buy. The proposal is modeled on aspects of recent health care initiatives in states including Massachusetts , Maine, Illino is and New Mexico, but rejects the idea o f uni versa I health care because Ohio's GOP-led Legislature has opposed expanding public subs idies, Owens said. Those without insurance tend to be se lf-e mployed or work for small businesses who can't afford to provide coverage, he said. "It's our view that mandates are not going to fly in Ohio, both politically and economically," said Owens, who helped craft the plan. " If ~u don't have mandates you have to make it attra tve to both employers and consumers to come in." The plan would ask employers to cover between 40 pereent and 60 percent of premium costs, with the shares paid by the employee and by state and federal insuranceJ'rograms flu ctuating base on the worker's income. A key to keeping the program's price tag down would be that doctors and hospitals would keep their charges for program participants near current Medicaid level s, which would cost money for some patients but allow others to carry insurance who now don't, Owens said. He estimates the program could provide health coverage to 425,000 of the state's 1.2 million uninsured . The proposal is similar, though not identical, to Gov. Ted Strickland's health care blueprint - a nd its backers are encouraged by early positive re sponses from insurers, health care providers, small business mterests and lawmakers. The plan emerges as Strickland is soliciting ideas for tackling the health care crisis that faces Ohio and the nation.

But she had the only point on serve in the tiebreaker, where the last eight points finished on unforced errors. The U.S. Open champion was broken when serving for the match at 5-3 and wasted a match point with a backhand error in the next game. Sharapova got two more match points in the 12th game and finished it off in 2 hours, 14 minutes when Chakvetadze netted u forehand. "It was very difficult. I didn't feel like we had a lot of easy rallies," Sharapova said. "I felt I had to work on every point." Sharapova was very inconsistent, smacking clean winners to take one game, then committing glaring mistakes to lose the next. She tinished with 32 winners but six double fau lts and 41 · untorced errors and won only three more points than her opponent. Sharapova, who looks toward her father. Yuri. sitting in the stands after almost every point. got a warning for getting cpaching from him as she served at 0-30 with the score tied at 2-2 in the second set. She then ran olf four straight points to take the game. "I was a little up and down, a bit scratchy,'' Sharapova said. "I am glad I got through, but next time will even be tougher." Shampova is into the semitinals at Melbourne Park for the third straight year and is among the last four at a major for the eighth time. She is the defending U.S. Open champion and also won Wimbledon in 2004. Chakvetadze, who had won 20 uf her .previous 21 matches, had never been beyond the founh round of a major. In men's quanertinals later Wednesday, second-seeded Rafael Nadal faced No. I0 Fernando Gonzalez of Chile and Tommy Haas was against No. 3 Nikolay Davydenko.

Great American Ball Park is one of the most homerfriendly parks in the major leagues. Saarloos gave up a careerhigh 19 homers in 121 1-3 innings last season.
