"Hopefully, we can do something about ·that one, too." Andretti won that NASCAR race in 1967. Ganassi was asked if the win in the Rolex 24 bodes well for Montoya's move back to the U.S. after several successful but unfulfilling years in Fl? "It's a good start, I'll tell you that," said Ganassi; for whom Montoya won the CART title in 1999 and Indy in 2000. Montoya gave his team the lead Sunday morning and Pruett kept it to the finish . This is the second straight year that Ganassi 's team has won the grueling 24-hour event. Former IRL champions Dan Wheldon and Scott Dixon combined with NASCAR driver Casey Mears to win the 2006 race. "This was just a total team win," said Ganassi, the first team owner to win this race back-tohack since AI Holbert in 1986 and 1987.

REED BREED@MVDAILVSENTINEL.COM Board President Loretta Murphy said the grant-funded improvements will allow the system to operate at full capacity, but said the I 0 year-old system was inadequate for the community's needs when it began operating. She said district also anticipates a grant through the Ohio Public Works Commission of approxi mately $50,000 to do additional equipment upgrades. Murphy said the improvements planned for the district are not designed to allow for future expansion, but to replace inadequate equipment and correct a poorly- constructed infrastructure. Murphy said the district's current board feels the system was not designed to accomodate the customers on the system at the time it began operating, or to allow for the modest new construction in the district since that time. There are no plans for an expansion of the system. Murphy said the district's engineering firm, M-E Engineering, completed an evaluation of the district's infrastructure to determine what problems existed, and the grant funds awarded and anticipated will be used to address those problems. Murphy said motors on the two lift stations have repeal· edly been repaired or replaced, at a cost of $6,000 each time. She said the district's board believes that an electric service converter was installed although the district's board at the time knew it was not suitable 'for the system. That, Murphy, said, has cost the district $40,000 in pump repairs when a $15,000 modifica· tion of the original system's design would have corrected the problem.

Cervical cancer screenings saving lives BY BETH SERGENT BSERGENT®MYOAILYSENTINEL.COM POMEROY Cervical cancer screenings are saving not only the lives of women but the lives of their families and friends. By detecting cervical cancer early, women will have a better chance at being around for their .families and friends. In fact, the American Cancer Society (ACS) says survival for patients with pre-invasive lesions is nearly 100 percent. Detecting those pre-invasive lesions can usually be done through a pap test. For women who are underinsured or uninsured there is financial help when it comes to paying for a pap test. Courtney Sim, assistant administrator of the Meig s County Health Department (MCHD) said those women who are 40 or older and income eligible can call the Southeast Ohio Breast and Cervical Cancer Project at 1-800-23-NOBLE. The Southeast Ohio Breast and Cervical Cancer Project administers vouchers that can be used the same as cash at local health care providers like Holzer Meigs Clinic. River Rose OB/GYN at the Meigs Medical Clinic and the MCHD's Women's Health Clinic. Sim added the next women's health clinic at the MCHD is on Thursday with appointments already scheduled though future appointments can be made by calling Sherry Hammond at 992-6626. The MCHD offers pap smear testing on a sliding fee scale based on income for females of reproductive age. The latest ACS statistics in Ohio indicate there were 503 newly diagnosed cases of cervical cancer between 1999-2003 while there were 169 deaths for the same time frame. Often women in Appalachia have a high percentage rate of cervical cancer diagnosed in late stages. Dr. Jane Broecker, M.D., of River PIHse sH C1ncer, A5 ' Economy Auto Sales opens for business ., ) .

With only three hours to go, three cars were nose to tail for the lead, separated by less than 6 seconds, with Montoya third and battling Scotland's Ryan Dalziel and Italy 's Max Angelelli. ''It's ama~ing," Montoya said in the tumultuous Victory Circle. "It's incredible after 20 hours there are three cars on the same lap. It was like qualifying every lap. Very exciting." Dalziel, a rookie in the Champ Car World Series this season, held off the two veterans until he pitted during the 24th hour. That gave the lead to Angelelli, but the former Daytona winner was quickly passed by Montoya and the eventual winners led the rest of the way. During the 25th hour, Pruett took over the cockpit from his Colombian teammate, while Dalziel gave up his seat in the Pontiac Riley prototype to longtime open-wheel racer Patrick Carpentier and road racing ace Jan Magnussen took over the third-place Pontiac Riley for Angelelli. Magnussen managed to put the car also shared by two-time Daytona winner Wayne Taylor and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon into second place. But he wound up third, two laps down, after brake problems sent him on an off-course excursion and forced a long pit stop during the final half hour. It was still a great showing considering their problems. Among them, the team had no clutch for most of the race and had to be push-started by the crew after every pit stop.

Lewis "Scooter" Libby told him over lunch that the wife of a prominent war critic worked at the CIA. Fleischer said the conversation happened July 7, 2003, days before Libby told investigators he was surprised to learn about the CIA operative from a reporter. That discrepancy is at the hean of Libby's petjury and obstruction trial. Fleischer. who was the chief White House spokesman for the l'irst 2 112 years of President Bush's tirst term. said Monday that Libby invited him to lunch to discuss Fleischer's planned departure from the White House. He said it was the tirst time he and Libby had eaten lunch together. They talked about Fleischer's career plans and their shared interest in the Miami Dolphins football team, Fleischer testitied. He can't remember who brought it up but he said the conversation then turned to the growing controversy over former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, who accused the White House of ignoring prewar intelligence on Iraq. "Ambassador Wilson was sent by his wife," Fleis<:her recalled Libby saying. "His wife works for the CIA." Fleischer said Libby also used the woman· s name, Valerie Plame. and told him it was ''hush hush.'' "My sense is that Mr. Libby wa' telling me this was kind of Clubs and organizations newsy," Fleischer said. Fleischer said he again heard about Plame four days later aboard Air Force One trom White House communications director Dan Bartlett. Bartlett was reading · documents and began "venting" that reporters kept repeating Wilson's claim that Vice President Dick Cheney sent Wilson on a fact-fmding trip to Niger. ''His wife sent him," Fleischer recalled Bartlett saying. "She works at the CIA." Fleischer said he relayed that information to reporters from Time magazine and NBC. A reporter from Newsweek magazine was also there but may have walked away, he said. The reporters paid no attention to the comment, he testilied. "I never in my wildest dreams thought this information was classitied,'' Fleischer testitied. Fleischer testified under an imtnunity deal with prosecutors and arrived in court with his attorneys. He said he sought the deal after reading an article about the investigation. 1\tesday ...Cloudy with a 50 perce'nt chance of snow showers. Highs in the lower 30s. West winds 10 to 15 mph.

Driving in winter weather- snow, ice, wet and cold- creates a great challenge for vehicles and drivers. Keeping your vehicle in good technical repair reduces your overall chances for any mishap or disaster while driving -particularly in winter weather. To prepare your vehicle for winter driving give it a complete checkup . Look at the following areas: Electrical system , brakes and tires. The traction between tires and roadway determines :10w well a vehicle rides, turns and stops. and is r.rucial for safe driving in winter. Proper tire selec•• on is very important. Also. check your exhaust system. heating/oooling system. windshield wipers and fuel . Do not let the fuel level get loo low because lhe driving lime to the next gas station may take much longer than you ever expected: and. if you get stuck. the car engine will be your only source of heat. What should I include in a winter driving safety kit? A well-stocked winter driving safety kit helps to handle any emergency.

A Palestinian suicide bomber attacked a bakery in this southern Israeli resort town on Monday, killing himself and three people, police said.

He said he dropped the man off on a side road with few people and quickly alerted authorities. "From when I called the police until the explosion, no more than a few minutes elapsed," he told Channel 10 TV. Islamic Jihad and the AI Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades claimed joint re~nsibility. Both militant groups said they hoped to encourage warring Palestinian factions to end weeks of clashes.

A representative of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas was also present, Palestinian officials said. Police sllid a blast near Haniyeh's home earlier was an accidental explosion of a gas canister. Aniving in Cairo, Abbas denounced the Eilat bombing, according to the Palestinian WAFA news agency.

Siksik's mother, Rowayda, said he left home three days ago and proudly told reporters that she knew of the attack in Fleischer: Libby discussed CIA officer over lunch ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER WASHINGTON -Fonner White House press secretary Ari Fleischer testified Monday that then-colleague I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby told him over lunch that the wife of a prominent war critic worked at the CIA. Fleischer said the conversation happened July 7, 2003, days before Libby told investigators he was surprised to learn about the CIA operative from a reporter. That discrepancy is at the hean of Libby's petjury and obstruction trial. Fleischer. who was the chief White House spokesman for the l'irst 2 112 years of President Bush's tirst term. said Monday that Libby invited him to lunch to discuss Fleischer's planned departure from the White House. He said it was the tirst time he and Libby had eaten lunch together. They talked about Fleischer's career plans and their shared interest in the Miami Dolphins football team, Fleischer testitied. He can't remember who brought it up but he said the conversation then turned to the growing controversy over former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, who accused the White House of ignoring prewar intelligence on Iraq. "Ambassador Wilson was sent by his wife," Fleis<:her recalled Libby saying. "His wife works for the CIA." Fleischer said Libby also used the woman· s name, Valerie Plame. and told him it was ''hush hush.'' "My sense is that Mr. Libby wa' telling me this was kind of Clubs and organizations newsy," Fleischer said. Fleischer said he again heard about Plame four days later aboard Air Force One trom White House communications director Dan Bartlett. Bartlett was reading · documents and began "venting" that reporters kept repeating Wilson's claim that Vice President Dick Cheney sent Wilson on a fact-fmding trip to Niger. ''His wife sent him," Fleischer recalled Bartlett saying. "She works at the CIA." Fleischer said he relayed that information to reporters from Time magazine and NBC. A reporter from Newsweek magazine was also there but may have walked away, he said. The reporters paid no attention to the comment, he testilied. "I never in my wildest dreams thought this information was classitied,'' Fleischer testitied. Fleischer testified under an imtnunity deal with prosecutors and arrived in court with his attorneys. He said he sought the deal after reading an article about the investigation. 1\tesday ...Cloudy with a 50 perce'nt chance of snow showers. Highs in the lower 30s. West winds 10 to 15 mph.

The bombing was praised by the Palestinians' governing Ham<IS movement <Is legitimute resistance - a position that was sure to hun efforts to end a crippling economic boycott imposed by the international community. The attack also jeopardized a two-month truce in the Gaza Strip. Israeli security chiefs met late Monday to discuss a response.

It was the tirst suicide bombing in this Red Sea resort of50,000 at Israel's southern tip near the Jordanian and Egyptian borders.

Thought lor Today: " It is the tragedy of the world that no one knuws what he dne'ift know - and the less a man knows, the rnore sure he is that he knows everything." Joyce Cary. English author ( 1888- 1957). ·------------------------------~ Tuesday, January 30, 2007 Obituaries 2007 A new, nonpolarized, problem-solving form of politics is trying to be born m thi s ~o untry, but - lip service aside -·· most current politicians are stuck in the old model of nonstop partisan war- Morton Kondiacke fare . The old politics was richly on display Tuesday as President Bush deiiv· ered hi s State of the Union address and Congressional Democrats reacted . Bush en unciated once again - the clear message of the 2006 elections: "Our citizens don 't care which side of the aisle we sit on - as long as we are willing to cross that aisle when there is work to be done ." The agenda he offered created some opportunities for bipartisan agreement - notably, comprehensive immigration reform and reauthorization of the No Child Left BeHind program - but most Democratic commentary emphasized the negative . In the main, Democrats gave a nod to the pub I ic 's desire for bipartisan cooperation, then · quickly dismissed Bush's proposals as inadequate or wrongheaded. · Typical was the reaction of Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt. . "I welcome the president's change m tone," he said. " But though (Bush's) tone sounds more accepting of other views, his basic policies so far have not changed." The same kind of message ·came from Speaker Nancy Pelosi , D-Calif. , and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D· Nev., and the Democrats' official SOTU responder, Sen. Jim Webb, Va. Webb, in particular, exuded the old politics, accusing Bush of starting the Iraq War "recklessly" and likening current eco· nomic di sparities to the early 1900s, when ''t he dispossessed workers at the bottom were threaten ing revolt. " Bush should get U.S. troops out of Iraq and " take action" - unspeci· fied - about " inequality," Webb said. " If he does. we will join him . If he does not, we will be showing him the way." The leadin g exponent of a new politics is Sen. Barack Obama, D-111. , whose fantastic appeal lies, I think, both m hi s personal charisma and hi s promise to answer the public 's hunger for non· partisan politics or "post-partisan" politics, as California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger ( R) calls it. Obama had it exactly right in announcing hi s presidential exploratory committee last week. "America has fac ed big problems before," he said. " But today, our lenders in Washington seem incapable of working together in a practical, common· sense way. " Politics has become bitter and partisan, so gummed up by money and influence that we can 't Iackie the big problems that demand solution," he said. " We have to change our politics and · come together around our common interests and con· cerns as Americans ." As various commenta· tors have said, Obama represents a new genera· tiona! sens ibil ity a pragmatic post-boomer attitude trying tu bypa" the ideological hang-ups of boomer veterans of the Vie tnam and cultura l strugg les of the 1960s. In fac t, there are multi· pie bipartisan efforts und er way to promote conse nsus so lutions to variou s problems, even some of them in Congress, such as the Senate's '' bipartisan caucus" startby Se ns. Joe ed Lieberman, ID-Conn., and Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn. In recent weeks. several "strange bedfellow s" coaliti ons have announced to work agree ment s toge ther un health care and educat ion reform . One collection. including formerly hostile groups such as the liberal Familie s USA , the conservative U.S. Chamber of Commerce and America's Health Insurance Plans , announced a cooperative effort to cover all of America's 9 million uninsured children by expanding the State Children's Health Insurance Program . Another coalition was formed by AARP, the Service Employees Intern ational Union and the Bu si ness Roundtable to jointly address both health care and the nation 's long-term fiscal crisis. Two House Members, conservative Tom Price. R-Ga .. and liberal Tammy Baldwin , D-Wi s., and moderate Sen s. George Voinovi ch, R-Ohio, and Jeff Bin gaman . D-N .M., are co-sponsonng mea - sures to encourage states to experiment to cover the uninsured, as Massachusetts. California, Pennsy i vania and othe r states are doing. Bush, virtually ignoring such approaches, came up with a novel alternat ive to make healt h care more affordable by offerin g families a $ 15,000 tax deduc ti on to buy in surance - paying for it by limiting deductio ns for more expe nsive plans. Without even a hearing, the plan was declared "DOA" by . old-politics Democrats, including influential Reps. Pete Stark (Ca li f.) and John Dingell (M ich.). Obama, enco uragingly, granted that Bush's pro-· posai was "serious" and should be addressed " in a constructi ve way." But he also declared that "incremental plans that do noth. ing to brin9 down costs or guarantee cove rage are simply no longer suffi· cient" and added that "it 's not goin g to be adequate." Indeed, a Treasury Dep artment analysis show s that Bush 's pian will cover only 5 million of the nation's 47 million uninsured , although White Hou se officials said it would ac tually cover more . It 's not health care, but the Iraq war, that mainly prevents the new politics from being born . Beyond that, pre sid ential candidates will be pressured by ideological activists tu keep the old wars alive . But . the new politics ts coming because the public want s it. It will just take courage and vision to give it life. BELLEFONTAINE Kathryn L. Shoots, 91, of Bellefontaine, died Saturday, Jan. 27, 2007, at her residence.

Huron County Common Pleas Judge Earl McGimpsey ruled that Michael and Sharen Gravelle did not prove any of their arguments, including that the jury made a mistake, that a witness committed perjury and that evidence was withheld. He wrote in his decision that the Gravelles' "own expert conceded that long· term use of the enclosed beds would have a detrimental effect on the children." The Gravelles, of rural Wakeman in nonheast Ohio, were convicted last month of four felony counts of child endangering, two misdemeanor counts of child endangering and five misde· Nat Hentoff administration to toy with TV or radio in order to serve it s .sordid or it s benev olent ends." During the 1940s and early I 950s, I was a full · time announcer and reporter on radio station WMEX in Boston . When official Fairness Doctrine letters came to the sU· tion 's owner from the FCC. the front office pan· icked. Lawyers had to be summoned; tapes of the accused broadcast s had to be examined with extreme, apprehensive care; voluminous responses to the bureaucrats at the FCC had to be prepared and sent. After a number of these from indictment s Washington arrived at WMEX, the bos s summoned all of us and commanded that from then on, we ourselve s would . engage in no controversy at the station. In news: casts, we could report controversies, but none of our opinions on public issues could be aired under the station's auspices. For any other con· troversiai statements by nonstaff members, opposing views had to be given equal time to reply. This happened at other broadcast stations as well. Champions of the Fairness Doctrine glowed in tri umph , e mphasi zing that due to the "scarcity" or stations around the coun try, the Supreme Court in its 1969 decision in Red Lion Broadcastin g Co. v. FCC - had been correct crats' taking charge of freedom of speec h on teievi,ion , the cable Intern et and co ntinuing new forms of expression - under the mandate of the FC C's defin ers of "di versity of views ." There are liberals who preach the need for "diversity uf views" in calling fo r the return of the Fairness Doctrine because they bridle at the hi gh ratin gs of Rus h Limbau gh, Bill O' Reilly, Scan Hannity and othe r conservative broadcasters who currentl y have more public favor than the comparati ve ly fewer liberal commentators. But these liberal s ignore why we the First have Amendment . As Oliver Wendell Holmes emphasized: "If there is any principle of the Constitution that rnure imperatively calls for attachment than any other it is the principle of free thought - not the thought that we hate." The Framers of the Constitution, in which the First Amendment is e mbedded. knew from experience that government control of freedom of speech and thought could lead to tyranny. Imagine if Tom Paine had had to give equal time to the royal governor's opposing views. With the "scarcity doctrine" ended, William 0. Douglas was right: "TV and radio stand in the same protec ted position under the First Amendment as new spapers and magazines." (Nat Hen tojf is a nut ion· ally rei/OII'Iled wuhoril\' on the Firs1 Amendmnit and th e Bifl of Rights and aut hor.. o{ 111<111 r books. including "The War 011 the Bill of Righ ts and the Gmhering Resi.w mce" · ( Sere n Storie.> Press , 2003).) meanor counts of child abuse. "We respectfully disagree with the coun's rulings and we intend to pursue the issues in the court of appeals," said defense attor· ney Ken Myers, who represents Sharen Gravelle . The Gravelles were disappointed but "not terribly surprised" by the ruling, he said. Myers said a key issue on appeal would be the defense contention that descriptions about the size of the enclosures had been misrepresented by investigators seeking a search warrant for the Gravelle home. "There are several very good issues for appeal, some of which were not addressed in this go-round," Myers said. "But I think when we ~etthree judges looking at it mdependently, we're confident they will see some of the errors that we've been pointins out at the trial level."

This rationale for circumscribing the First Amendment by government dictate came to be known as "the scarcity doctrine ." But in I 984, the Supreme Court came to its First Arntmdment senses in FCC v.

In view, ruled the Court, of the continually multiplying number of radio and TV channels around the coun try -. and , I would have added , the growth of onenew spap er towns and cities- the "s,·arcity doctrine, " as it applied to broadc as ters, dimini shed free speech. Three years later, the FCC concurred: "The intru sion by gov-· ernment into the co ntent of programming occasioned by the enforcement of (the Fairness Doctrine) restrict s the journalistic freedom of broadcasters ... (and) ac tually inhibits the pre se ntation of co ntroversial issues of public importance to the detri ment 9f the public and the degradation of the editori al prerogative of broadcas t journalists." Nonetheless, in 1987, a bill to restore the Fairness Doctrine passed the House by a 3-to- I margin - and the Senate by nearly 2-to1. (With Democrats now in control of both chambers. this could happen again .) President Ronald Reagan, who had been an active broadcaster (as in the ''Death Valley Days" se ries), vetoed the bill because it was "a nta goni~­ tic to the freedom of express ion guaranteed by .t he_.First Amendme nt.

English author ( 1888- 1957). ·------------------------------~ Tuesday, January 30, 2007 Obituaries 2007 A new, nonpolarized, problem-solving form of politics is trying to be born m thi s ~o untry, but - lip service aside -·· most current politicians are stuck in the old model of nonstop partisan war- Morton Kondiacke fare . The old politics was richly on display Tuesday as President Bush deiiv· ered hi s State of the Union address and Congressional Democrats reacted . Bush en unciated once again - the clear message of the 2006 elections: "Our citizens don 't care which side of the aisle we sit on - as long as we are willing to cross that aisle when there is work to be done ." The agenda he offered created some opportunities for bipartisan agreement - notably, comprehensive immigration reform and reauthorization of the No Child Left BeHind program - but most Democratic commentary emphasized the negative . In the main, Democrats gave a nod to the pub I ic 's desire for bipartisan cooperation, then · quickly dismissed Bush's proposals as inadequate or wrongheaded. · Typical was the reaction of Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt. . "I welcome the president's change m tone," he said. " But though (Bush's) tone sounds more accepting of other views, his basic policies so far have not changed." The same kind of message ·came from Speaker Nancy Pelosi , D-Calif. , and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D· Nev., and the Democrats' official SOTU responder, Sen. Jim Webb, Va. Webb, in particular, exuded the old politics, accusing Bush of starting the Iraq War "recklessly" and likening current eco· nomic di sparities to the early 1900s, when ''t he dispossessed workers at the bottom were threaten ing revolt. " Bush should get U.S. troops out of Iraq and " take action" - unspeci· fied - about " inequality," Webb said. " If he does. we will join him . If he does not, we will be showing him the way." The leadin g exponent of a new politics is Sen. Barack Obama, D-111. , whose fantastic appeal lies, I think, both m hi s personal charisma and hi s promise to answer the public 's hunger for non· partisan politics or "post-partisan" politics, as California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger ( R) calls it. Obama had it exactly right in announcing hi s presidential exploratory committee last week. "America has fac ed big problems before," he said. " But today, our lenders in Washington seem incapable of working together in a practical, common· sense way. " Politics has become bitter and partisan, so gummed up by money and influence that we can 't Iackie the big problems that demand solution," he said. " We have to change our politics and · come together around our common interests and con· cerns as Americans ." As various commenta· tors have said, Obama represents a new genera· tiona! sens ibil ity a pragmatic post-boomer attitude trying tu bypa" the ideological hang-ups of boomer veterans of the Vie tnam and cultura l strugg les of the 1960s. In fac t, there are multi· pie bipartisan efforts und er way to promote conse nsus so lutions to variou s problems, even some of them in Congress, such as the Senate's '' bipartisan caucus" startby Se ns. Joe ed Lieberman, ID-Conn., and Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn. In recent weeks. several "strange bedfellow s" coaliti ons have announced to work agree ment s toge ther un health care and educat ion reform . One collection. including formerly hostile groups such as the liberal Familie s USA , the conservative U.S. Chamber of Commerce and America's Health Insurance Plans , announced a cooperative effort to cover all of America's 9 million uninsured children by expanding the State Children's Health Insurance Program . Another coalition was formed by AARP, the Service Employees Intern ational Union and the Bu si ness Roundtable to jointly address both health care and the nation 's long-term fiscal crisis. Two House Members, conservative Tom Price. R-Ga .. and liberal Tammy Baldwin , D-Wi s., and moderate Sen s. George Voinovi ch, R-Ohio, and Jeff Bin gaman . D-N .M., are co-sponsonng mea - sures to encourage states to experiment to cover the uninsured, as Massachusetts. California, Pennsy i vania and othe r states are doing. Bush, virtually ignoring such approaches, came up with a novel alternat ive to make healt h care more affordable by offerin g families a $ 15,000 tax deduc ti on to buy in surance - paying for it by limiting deductio ns for more expe nsive plans. Without even a hearing, the plan was declared "DOA" by . old-politics Democrats, including influential Reps. Pete Stark (Ca li f.) and John Dingell (M ich.). Obama, enco uragingly, granted that Bush's pro-· posai was "serious" and should be addressed " in a constructi ve way." But he also declared that "incremental plans that do noth. ing to brin9 down costs or guarantee cove rage are simply no longer suffi· cient" and added that "it 's not goin g to be adequate." Indeed, a Treasury Dep artment analysis show s that Bush 's pian will cover only 5 million of the nation's 47 million uninsured , although White Hou se officials said it would ac tually cover more . It 's not health care, but the Iraq war, that mainly prevents the new politics from being born . Beyond that, pre sid ential candidates will be pressured by ideological activists tu keep the old wars alive . But . the new politics ts coming because the public want s it. It will just take courage and vision to give it life. BELLEFONTAINE Kathryn L. Shoots, 91, of Bellefontaine, died Saturday, Jan. 27, 2007, at her residence.

Huron County Common Pleas Judge Earl McGimpsey ruled that Michael and Sharen Gravelle did not prove any of their arguments, including that the jury made a mistake, that a witness committed perjury and that evidence was withheld. He wrote in his decision that the Gravelles' "own expert conceded that long· term use of the enclosed beds would have a detrimental effect on the children." The Gravelles, of rural Wakeman in nonheast Ohio, were convicted last month of four felony counts of child endangering, two misdemeanor counts of child endangering and five misde· Nat Hentoff administration to toy with TV or radio in order to serve it s .sordid or it s benev olent ends." During the 1940s and early I 950s, I was a full · time announcer and reporter on radio station WMEX in Boston . When official Fairness Doctrine letters came to the sU· tion 's owner from the FCC. the front office pan· icked. Lawyers had to be summoned; tapes of the accused broadcast s had to be examined with extreme, apprehensive care; voluminous responses to the bureaucrats at the FCC had to be prepared and sent. After a number of these from indictment s Washington arrived at WMEX, the bos s summoned all of us and commanded that from then on, we ourselve s would . engage in no controversy at the station. In news: casts, we could report controversies, but none of our opinions on public issues could be aired under the station's auspices. For any other con· troversiai statements by nonstaff members, opposing views had to be given equal time to reply. This happened at other broadcast stations as well. Champions of the Fairness Doctrine glowed in tri umph , e mphasi zing that due to the "scarcity" or stations around the coun try, the Supreme Court in its 1969 decision in Red Lion Broadcastin g Co. v.

There are liberals who preach the need for "diversity uf views" in calling fo r the return of the Fairness Doctrine because they bridle at the hi gh ratin gs of Rus h Limbau gh, Bill O' Reilly, Scan Hannity and othe r conservative broadcasters who currentl y have more public favor than the comparati ve ly fewer liberal commentators. But these liberal s ignore why we the First have Amendment . As Oliver Wendell Holmes emphasized: "If there is any principle of the Constitution that rnure imperatively calls for attachment than any other it is the principle of free thought - not the thought that we hate." The Framers of the Constitution, in which the First Amendment is e mbedded. knew from experience that government control of freedom of speech and thought could lead to tyranny. Imagine if Tom Paine had had to give equal time to the royal governor's opposing views. With the "scarcity doctrine" ended, William 0. Douglas was right: "TV and radio stand in the same protec ted position under the First Amendment as new spapers and magazines." (Nat Hen tojf is a nut ion· ally rei/OII'Iled wuhoril\' on the Firs1 Amendmnit and th e Bifl of Rights and aut hor.. o{ 111<111 r books. including "The War 011 the Bill of Righ ts and the Gmhering Resi.w mce" · ( Sere n Storie.> Press , 2003).) meanor counts of child abuse. "We respectfully disagree with the coun's rulings and we intend to pursue the issues in the court of appeals," said defense attor· ney Ken Myers, who represents Sharen Gravelle . The Gravelles were disappointed but "not terribly surprised" by the ruling, he said. Myers said a key issue on appeal would be the defense contention that descriptions about the size of the enclosures had been misrepresented by investigators seeking a search warrant for the Gravelle home. "There are several very good issues for appeal, some of which were not addressed in this go-round," Myers said. "But I think when we ~etthree judges looking at it mdependently, we're confident they will see some of the errors that we've been pointins out at the trial level."

This rationale for circumscribing the First Amendment by government dictate came to be known as "the scarcity doctrine ." But in I 984, the Supreme Court came to its First Arntmdment senses in FCC v.

In view, ruled the Court, of the continually multiplying number of radio and TV channels around the coun try -. and , I would have added , the growth of onenew spap er towns and cities- the "s,·arcity doctrine, " as it applied to broadc as ters, dimini shed free speech. Three years later, the FCC concurred: "The intru sion by gov-· ernment into the co ntent of programming occasioned by the enforcement of (the Fairness Doctrine) restrict s the journalistic freedom of broadcasters ... (and) ac tually inhibits the pre se ntation of co ntroversial issues of public importance to the detri ment 9f the public and the degradation of the editori al prerogative of broadcas t journalists." Nonetheless, in 1987, a bill to restore the Fairness Doctrine passed the House by a 3-to- I margin - and the Senate by nearly 2-to1. (With Democrats now in control of both chambers. this could happen again .) President Ronald Reagan, who had been an active broadcaster (as in the ''Death Valley Days" se ries), vetoed the bill because it was "a nta goni~­ tic to the freedom of express ion guaranteed by .t he_.First Amendme nt.

Brad Sherman/photo Gallia Academy Blue Angels' Alexis Geiger (10) drives past River Valley Lady Raiders' Kayla Smith during a girls high school basketball game Monday in Cheshire. Blue Angels double up River Valley, 80-40 BY BRAD SHERMAN BSHERMAN@MYOAJLYIRIBUNE.COM CHESHIRE - It was a doubly good win for che Gallia Academy High School girls basketball team. The Blue Angels more than doubled their season scoring average by doubling up rival River Valley 80-40 on Monday - snapping a frustrating eight-game losing skid in the process. Brittany Elliott and Alexis Geiger had 18 and 15 points respectively, and senior Jessica Dingess came off the bench to have the best game of her career with 16. Nine Angels scored and everybody played - all in all. it was just a fun night for the Blue and White. "lfs good to see smiles on the kids faces tonight," said Gallia Academy coach Jeff Duduit. But post game smiles had been hard to come by. as the Angels had suffered more tllan their fair share of close losses. Despite holding second half leads in many of their past eight games, including their previous four, the Blue Angels weren't able to get over the hump. But tl)at all chan~ed Monday, as the improvmg Angels (4-12) were able to beat the Lady Raiders by 40 points after struggling to beat them in overtime earlier in the season (47-38). "Our focus all year has been to get better each trip down the floor ... our kids never lost their focus during that stretch, we're ~elting ready for tournament tlllle." Gallia Academy never trailed. River Valley was within 7·6 midway through the opening period, but the Blue Ant~els closed out the quarter w1th a I 0-2 run to go up 17-8 at the frrst stop. The visitors then put up a season-best 24 points in the second quarter, which parlayed into a lead of more than 20 at halftime. Gallia Academy kept up the scoring pace with 20 and 19 in the third and fourth quarters respectively. The Blue Angels connected on 28-of-52 from the field and was 21-of-30 at the free throw lines. "We ran into a hot team tonight,'• wmmented River Valley coach Harvey Brown. ··Everything they did was gold, and everything we did turned to stone." Brown's club, meanwhile, was good on just 14-of-50 floor shots and turned the basketball over 38 times. "We didn ' t play a very good game at all, we were out of sync big time," Brown continued. "They came to plar. we· never showed up tomj;hl." Rtver Valley lost for the 14th time in 15 games this season. Courtney Circle nailed four three-pointers and scored 15 points to pace River Valley. Kirsten Caner and Brooke Taylor each had six. Rachel Walburn and IIi ana Corflas five and MacKenzie Cluxton rounded out the scoring with three. The Lady Raiders were held to single-digit scoring in the frrst and third quarters by the Gallia Academy defense that came away with 28 steals in aiL Elliott had II of those takeaways and Geiger 10. Gallia Academy also won the reserve contest 46-34. The Blue Angels were led by Brea Clo.se with 15 while Kara Jackson and Allie Troester each had seven. Ashley Fitch and Jenna Ward had seven for the Lady Raiders. Gallia Academy returns to Southeastern Ohio Athletic League play when Portsmouth pa_ys a visit on Wednesday. River Valley plays host to CoaL Grove, on Thursday in Ohio Valley Conference action. Bv LARRY CRUM LCRUM@MYD~ILYREGISTER .COM POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. - A little confidence can go a long way. After suffering a 40-27 setback earlier in the year to Meigs, the Point Pleasant girls basketball team went in to Monday's rematch with hopes of turning things around and the Lady Knights did just that, getting a big boost of confidence in !he ftrst half and feeding off of that for a 42-35 victory over the Lady Marauders. Both teams now rest at .500 on the season, as Point improves to 7-7 and Meigs falls to 9-9 on the season. "The turning point in the game came in the tirst half when we got a I 0 point lead, that gave us a lot of confidence and I know it was early. but it was a big confidence builder for our kids," said Point Pleasant head coach Mitch Meadows. .,"Last year at Meigs we scored five points in the first · b. haIf ' but 19 1h'ts ttme was lg for us and let them know we can play with this team." Point Pleasant saw a new star take center court and lead the team as junior Hannan transfer Jessica Powell posted a career high 15 points to go along with five rebounds and four steals in the win. Anna Sommer struggled from the field, but still connected for 14 points, seven boards and three assists. Trista VanMatre added six points and four rebounds, Liz Somerville had five points and four rebounds and Devin Cotrill had two points. Meigs had only four players score on the eventng with sophomore Catie Wolfe leading all players with 16 points, three boards and two steals, Meghan Clelland had nine points. Amber Burton· had eight points and Melissa Grueser added two points and seven rebounds. Amy Barr and Brittany Preast did not get into the scoring column. but added five and seven rebounds respectively. But while the Lady Knighh saw the turning poinl in the game in one light, Mefgs head coach Carl Wolfe saw thing s a little dif. ferently. ··we came out in the third quarter and changed things around a little, we changed the offense and we scored quickly, we just couldn' t get a stop on the defensive end," Wolfe said. "They got a coupie of breaks on the other end and we didn't get any breaks." And the amount of free throws didn't help the Lady Marauders cause either. "I think the' big part was they had 22 free throws and we only had six, so that meant they were taking the ball to the hole and we didn't," Wolfe added. "Wilen we beat River Valley and Point Pleasant at home we shot 80 free throws in two CLEVELAND The most famous big toe in town needs pampering, and LeBron James just might give it some . The All-Star forward said Monday he ' ll consider sitting out Cleveland's next few games to rest his sore right toe. which he injured on a recent road trip and aggravated during Sunday's game against Phoenix. After missing Friday's game at Philadelphia, James returned and scored 30 points in 42 minutes againsc the Suns, but he re-injured the toe during the fourth quarter of the Cavaliers' 115-100 loss. ' James was kept out of an eight-minute scrimmage on Monday. but he was able to shoot, stretch and even threw around a football on the team's practice court with teammate Sasha Pavlovic following the workout. James said a few days off would do his toe wonders. " It would help," he said. " I don't like sitting down. I don't like not being able to give something to my teammates. Being out in street clothes, I hate that feeling. I feel like I'm leaving my teammates out on an island. Eastern from Page Bl including 2-of-5 from threepoint territory. The hosts also held a 19-13 edge in rebounding, including a 7-5 lead in offensive caroms. Con verse ly, the guests were 6-of-22 in field goal attempts at halftime. They were 0-for-4 in trifecta tries and also had 13 turnovers in the first half - three more than the opposition. The Lady Eagles shot 50 percent in the third quarter aitd extended its lead to 3918 headed into the stretch run .

After that, the Lady Marauders got hot. Meigs scored 18 third quarter points, more than the other three frames combined, to finally pull back on top for the first time since the first minutes of the second quarter when it took a 26-23 lead with 2:40 left and held that lead until late thanks to back-to-back triples by Clelland. But Point Pleasant fou¥ht back with its own outstde shootin¥ when Powell hit a three wtth 20 seconds left to give the Lady Knights a 3029 lead heading into the tina! eight minutes. The Lady Marc1uders did retake the lead to start the final canto, but surrendered it for good just a few sec- onds later as Point Pleasant held on, putting up a game high 13 points while Meigs could only muster six as Point rallied for a sevenpoint win. Point Pleasant received .a big boost from Sommer, Somerville and Devin Birchfield, as each played the entire game without a break. "I really liked the way we played tonight," Meadows said. "It maybe wasn't he style that I originally brought here, hut we are going to find ways to win and that is wh<tt we are doing." Point Pleasant will return 7:30 p.m. to action Wednesday when Winfield comes .to town while Meigs tries to get back on track Thursday when Vinton County visits Rock Springs. "Right now, it's an injury where you go out there and keep reinjuring it. You've got to be smart and it's something I'-ve really got to think about. ... Long term, it would be smart if I took some games oil and some practices otl, honestly, to get better." The Cavaliers have a busy week ahead. On Tuesday night, they host Golden State before playing at Miami on Thursday. They're back home on Friday to face Charlotte before hosting the Detroit Pistons on Sunday in a nationally televised Super Bowl appetizer. The hectic schedule is making it difficult for James to get adequate rest for his toe, which he initially sprained and ,bruised during a Jan. 19 game at Denver. "That's the problem," James said. "We're playing every other day and you're getting back-to-backs where there isn't much rest time. So I've got to be smart about this. It's either go out there and affect my play by keep reinjuring it and keep hunipg it. "It's something I need to think about and sit down with the coaching staff and come up with a solution." X-rays and an MRI taken last week revealed no structural damage to James' toe . But as a precaution, he sat out Friday's game and the Cavaliers beat the Sixers. "It's bruised on top and sprained inside the ligament," James said. "It's nagging and something I haven't had in a long time. It's some thing I have to work at every day and get as much rest as possible. "It's going to nag on and nag on if you keep playing on it.' James' toe injury is coming at a bad time for the Cavaliers, who are playing their worst ball this season. Cleveland has lost three straight at home and dropped seven of 10 overall. After having the Eastern Conference's tiest record for much of the season's first half, the Cavs have slipped in the standings. If playoffs started tomorrow, Cleveland would be the No. 5 seed. More concerning is that they have just a four-game lead over New Jersey. currently holding the No. 8 spot. James, though, isn' t worried about a collapse. "There are still a lot of ballgames to play," he said. "We're still right where we want to be. It's all about getting to the playoffs. Once you get to the flayoffs it doesn't matter i you're a No. I seed or eighth seed, it's best out of seven. We want to get home-court advantage of course , but we have to keep getting better." Cleveland's biggest tlaw this season has been an inconsistent offense. The Cavs are ranke.d 24th - out of 30 teams - in points per game. 26th in field-goal percentage and 30th in freethrow percentage. The club's inability to push the tempo and knock down open shoots as well as coach Mike Brown 's continued emphasis on defense. has frustrated players . In time, James is confident Cleveland's offense will 1mprove. "It has to," he said. " We have too many scorers on this team to be struggling as much as we are. We scored 100 last night but it didn't feel like we were on tack at times. At the start of the fourth quarter, we had four possessions · where we almost didn't get a shot at the basket. It has to get better. "There are going to be times when you can't hold a team to 40 percent shooting from the field. They're going to score and you have to be able to counter back." South Gallia managed just two points down the stretch as Kristen Halley sank 2-of-4 free throw attempts. The guests also went the final 8:37 without a made field goal. Afterwards SGHS coach Brett Bostic spoke about what led to the final outcome. "We didn't shoot the ball real well. We 1,>assed up some opportumties and didn't put ourselves in a position to win," said Bostic. "Eastern has a good team and had a good little inside-outside game going. They hit some threes to open up the middle and v1ce versa, and we got a little frustrated because of that." The Lady Rebels finished the night 9-of-37 from the floor and hit just 3-of-15 shots in the second half. As bad as it was for the Gallia County natives, Weber thought his squad had a lot to do with that scenario. "South Gallia is not a bad club, but I thought our defense played pretty doggone good tomght. They didn't get. too many good looks," Weber said. "I am pleased with our overall effort and this was a good win for us." Senior Erin Weber led the way with game-highs of 14 points, 10 rebounds and se.ven assists in the victory. Senior Jenna Hupp was next for EHS with 13 points, followed by Katie Hayman with .IO markers. South Gallia was led by Niki Fulks with six points, followed by both Adkins and Jennifer Sheridan with four apiece.

Meigs senior Meghan Clelland, with ball, dribbles past Point Plaasant defender Anna Sommer during the second half of Monday's non-league matchup in Point Pleasant, W.Va.

Those extra points at the line may have made the difference, as both teams struggled from the field as Meigs shot 32 percent and Point Pleasant only hit for 35 percent from the field. Either way, Point Pleasant found a way to come out on top. A low scoring first quarter saw the Lady Marauders hold Point Pleasant without a bucket for the fust six minutes of the game before claiming an 8-4 lead with under a minute to play. But a big bucket and foul by Anna Sommer allowed her team to close within one at 8-7 heading into the second frame. Meigs was lirst to score in the second quarter on a foul shot, but then fell apart while Point Pleasant went on a 12-0 run to claim a 19-9 lead and would have held the visitors without a field goal in the frame if it weren't for a basket at the The Daily Sentinel • Page 83 Gallia County, OH LeBron says sore toe needs some more rest · Bv ToM WITHERS ASSOCIATED PRESS www.mydallyaentlnel.com .,,Of .ny toM ot . . , _ . . tNI rMUita from the pubflciUon or omiMion of an ldvertiMnWnt.

Brad Sherman/photo Gallia Academy Blue Angels' Alexis Geiger (10) drives past River Valley Lady Raiders' Kayla Smith during a girls high school basketball game Monday in Cheshire. Blue Angels double up River Valley, 80-40 BY BRAD SHERMAN BSHERMAN@MYOAJLYIRIBUNE.COM CHESHIRE - It was a doubly good win for che Gallia Academy High School girls basketball team. The Blue Angels more than doubled their season scoring average by doubling up rival River Valley 80-40 on Monday - snapping a frustrating eight-game losing skid in the process. Brittany Elliott and Alexis Geiger had 18 and 15 points respectively, and senior Jessica Dingess came off the bench to have the best game of her career with 16. Nine Angels scored and everybody played - all in all. it was just a fun night for the Blue and White. "lfs good to see smiles on the kids faces tonight," said Gallia Academy coach Jeff Duduit. But post game smiles had been hard to come by. as the Angels had suffered more tllan their fair share of close losses. Despite holding second half leads in many of their past eight games, including their previous four, the Blue Angels weren't able to get over the hump. But tl)at all chan~ed Monday, as the improvmg Angels (4-12) were able to beat the Lady Raiders by 40 points after struggling to beat them in overtime earlier in the season (47-38). "Our focus all year has been to get better each trip down the floor ... our kids never lost their focus during that stretch, we're ~elting ready for tournament tlllle." Gallia Academy never trailed. River Valley was within 7·6 midway through the opening period, but the Blue Ant~els closed out the quarter w1th a I 0-2 run to go up 17-8 at the frrst stop. The visitors then put up a season-best 24 points in the second quarter, which parlayed into a lead of more than 20 at halftime. Gallia Academy kept up the scoring pace with 20 and 19 in the third and fourth quarters respectively. The Blue Angels connected on 28-of-52 from the field and was 21-of-30 at the free throw lines. "We ran into a hot team tonight,'• wmmented River Valley coach Harvey Brown. ··Everything they did was gold, and everything we did turned to stone." Brown's club, meanwhile, was good on just 14-of-50 floor shots and turned the basketball over 38 times. "We didn ' t play a very good game at all, we were out of sync big time," Brown continued. "They came to plar. we· never showed up tomj;hl." Rtver Valley lost for the 14th time in 15 games this season. Courtney Circle nailed four three-pointers and scored 15 points to pace River Valley. Kirsten Caner and Brooke Taylor each had six. Rachel Walburn and IIi ana Corflas five and MacKenzie Cluxton rounded out the scoring with three. The Lady Raiders were held to single-digit scoring in the frrst and third quarters by the Gallia Academy defense that came away with 28 steals in aiL Elliott had II of those takeaways and Geiger 10. Gallia Academy also won the reserve contest 46-34. The Blue Angels were led by Brea Clo.se with 15 while Kara Jackson and Allie Troester each had seven. Ashley Fitch and Jenna Ward had seven for the Lady Raiders. Gallia Academy returns to Southeastern Ohio Athletic League play when Portsmouth pa_ys a visit on Wednesday. River Valley plays host to CoaL Grove, on Thursday in Ohio Valley Conference action. Bv LARRY CRUM LCRUM@MYD~ILYREGISTER .COM POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. - A little confidence can go a long way. After suffering a 40-27 setback earlier in the year to Meigs, the Point Pleasant girls basketball team went in to Monday's rematch with hopes of turning things around and the Lady Knights did just that, getting a big boost of confidence in !he ftrst half and feeding off of that for a 42-35 victory over the Lady Marauders. Both teams now rest at .500 on the season, as Point improves to 7-7 and Meigs falls to 9-9 on the season. "The turning point in the game came in the tirst half when we got a I 0 point lead, that gave us a lot of confidence and I know it was early. but it was a big confidence builder for our kids," said Point Pleasant head coach Mitch Meadows. .,"Last year at Meigs we scored five points in the first · b. haIf ' but 19 1h'ts ttme was lg for us and let them know we can play with this team." Point Pleasant saw a new star take center court and lead the team as junior Hannan transfer Jessica Powell posted a career high 15 points to go along with five rebounds and four steals in the win. Anna Sommer struggled from the field, but still connected for 14 points, seven boards and three assists. Trista VanMatre added six points and four rebounds, Liz Somerville had five points and four rebounds and Devin Cotrill had two points. Meigs had only four players score on the eventng with sophomore Catie Wolfe leading all players with 16 points, three boards and two steals, Meghan Clelland had nine points. Amber Burton· had eight points and Melissa Grueser added two points and seven rebounds. Amy Barr and Brittany Preast did not get into the scoring column. but added five and seven rebounds respectively. But while the Lady Knighh saw the turning poinl in the game in one light, Mefgs head coach Carl Wolfe saw thing s a little dif. ferently. ··we came out in the third quarter and changed things around a little, we changed the offense and we scored quickly, we just couldn' t get a stop on the defensive end," Wolfe said. "They got a coupie of breaks on the other end and we didn't get any breaks." And the amount of free throws didn't help the Lady Marauders cause either. "I think the' big part was they had 22 free throws and we only had six, so that meant they were taking the ball to the hole and we didn't," Wolfe added. "Wilen we beat River Valley and Point Pleasant at home we shot 80 free throws in two CLEVELAND The most famous big toe in town needs pampering, and LeBron James just might give it some . The All-Star forward said Monday he ' ll consider sitting out Cleveland's next few games to rest his sore right toe. which he injured on a recent road trip and aggravated during Sunday's game against Phoenix. After missing Friday's game at Philadelphia, James returned and scored 30 points in 42 minutes againsc the Suns, but he re-injured the toe during the fourth quarter of the Cavaliers' 115-100 loss. ' James was kept out of an eight-minute scrimmage on Monday. but he was able to shoot, stretch and even threw around a football on the team's practice court with teammate Sasha Pavlovic following the workout. James said a few days off would do his toe wonders. " It would help," he said. " I don't like sitting down. I don't like not being able to give something to my teammates. Being out in street clothes, I hate that feeling. I feel like I'm leaving my teammates out on an island. Eastern from Page Bl including 2-of-5 from threepoint territory. The hosts also held a 19-13 edge in rebounding, including a 7-5 lead in offensive caroms. Con verse ly, the guests were 6-of-22 in field goal attempts at halftime. They were 0-for-4 in trifecta tries and also had 13 turnovers in the first half - three more than the opposition. The Lady Eagles shot 50 percent in the third quarter aitd extended its lead to 3918 headed into the stretch run .

After that, the Lady Marauders got hot. Meigs scored 18 third quarter points, more than the other three frames combined, to finally pull back on top for the first time since the first minutes of the second quarter when it took a 26-23 lead with 2:40 left and held that lead until late thanks to back-to-back triples by Clelland. But Point Pleasant fou¥ht back with its own outstde shootin¥ when Powell hit a three wtth 20 seconds left to give the Lady Knights a 3029 lead heading into the tina! eight minutes. The Lady Marc1uders did retake the lead to start the final canto, but surrendered it for good just a few sec- onds later as Point Pleasant held on, putting up a game high 13 points while Meigs could only muster six as Point rallied for a sevenpoint win. Point Pleasant received .a big boost from Sommer, Somerville and Devin Birchfield, as each played the entire game without a break. "I really liked the way we played tonight," Meadows said. "It maybe wasn't he style that I originally brought here, hut we are going to find ways to win and that is wh<tt we are doing." Point Pleasant will return 7:30 p.m. to action Wednesday when Winfield comes .to town while Meigs tries to get back on track Thursday when Vinton County visits Rock Springs. "Right now, it's an injury where you go out there and keep reinjuring it. You've got to be smart and it's something I'-ve really got to think about. ... Long term, it would be smart if I took some games oil and some practices otl, honestly, to get better." The Cavaliers have a busy week ahead. On Tuesday night, they host Golden State before playing at Miami on Thursday. They're back home on Friday to face Charlotte before hosting the Detroit Pistons on Sunday in a nationally televised Super Bowl appetizer. The hectic schedule is making it difficult for James to get adequate rest for his toe, which he initially sprained and ,bruised during a Jan. 19 game at Denver. "That's the problem," James said. "We're playing every other day and you're getting back-to-backs where there isn't much rest time. So I've got to be smart about this. It's either go out there and affect my play by keep reinjuring it and keep hunipg it. "It's something I need to think about and sit down with the coaching staff and come up with a solution." X-rays and an MRI taken last week revealed no structural damage to James' toe . But as a precaution, he sat out Friday's game and the Cavaliers beat the Sixers. "It's bruised on top and sprained inside the ligament," James said. "It's nagging and something I haven't had in a long time. It's some thing I have to work at every day and get as much rest as possible. "It's going to nag on and nag on if you keep playing on it.' James' toe injury is coming at a bad time for the Cavaliers, who are playing their worst ball this season. Cleveland has lost three straight at home and dropped seven of 10 overall. After having the Eastern Conference's tiest record for much of the season's first half, the Cavs have slipped in the standings. If playoffs started tomorrow, Cleveland would be the No. 5 seed. More concerning is that they have just a four-game lead over New Jersey. currently holding the No. 8 spot. James, though, isn' t worried about a collapse. "There are still a lot of ballgames to play," he said. "We're still right where we want to be. It's all about getting to the playoffs. Once you get to the flayoffs it doesn't matter i you're a No. I seed or eighth seed, it's best out of seven. We want to get home-court advantage of course , but we have to keep getting better." Cleveland's biggest tlaw this season has been an inconsistent offense. The Cavs are ranke.d 24th - out of 30 teams - in points per game. 26th in field-goal percentage and 30th in freethrow percentage. The club's inability to push the tempo and knock down open shoots as well as coach Mike Brown 's continued emphasis on defense. has frustrated players . In time, James is confident Cleveland's offense will 1mprove. "It has to," he said. " We have too many scorers on this team to be struggling as much as we are. We scored 100 last night but it didn't feel like we were on tack at times. At the start of the fourth quarter, we had four possessions · where we almost didn't get a shot at the basket. It has to get better. "There are going to be times when you can't hold a team to 40 percent shooting from the field. They're going to score and you have to be able to counter back." South Gallia managed just two points down the stretch as Kristen Halley sank 2-of-4 free throw attempts. The guests also went the final 8:37 without a made field goal. Afterwards SGHS coach Brett Bostic spoke about what led to the final outcome. "We didn't shoot the ball real well. We 1,>assed up some opportumties and didn't put ourselves in a position to win," said Bostic. "Eastern has a good team and had a good little inside-outside game going. They hit some threes to open up the middle and v1ce versa, and we got a little frustrated because of that." The Lady Rebels finished the night 9-of-37 from the floor and hit just 3-of-15 shots in the second half. As bad as it was for the Gallia County natives, Weber thought his squad had a lot to do with that scenario. "South Gallia is not a bad club, but I thought our defense played pretty doggone good tomght. They didn't get. too many good looks," Weber said. "I am pleased with our overall effort and this was a good win for us." Senior Erin Weber led the way with game-highs of 14 points, 10 rebounds and se.ven assists in the victory. Senior Jenna Hupp was next for EHS with 13 points, followed by Katie Hayman with .IO markers. South Gallia was led by Niki Fulks with six points, followed by both Adkins and Jennifer Sheridan with four apiece.

Meigs senior Meghan Clelland, with ball, dribbles past Point Plaasant defender Anna Sommer during the second half of Monday's non-league matchup in Point Pleasant, W.Va. The host Lady Knights claimed a 42-35 victory. Websjtes: www.mydailytrib,une .com www.mydailysentinel.com www.mydailyregister.com Sentinel \!tribune To ~~~~s. tonight we only had Meigs only took six total free throws on the evening, connecting for five of them, while Point Pleasant shot 59. percent (13-of-22) on the evening. Those extra points at the line may have made the difference, as both teams struggled from the field as Meigs shot 32 percent and Point Pleasant only hit for 35 percent from the field. Either way, Point Pleasant found a way to come out on top. A low scoring first quarter saw the Lady Marauders hold Point Pleasant without a bucket for the fust six minutes of the game before claiming an 8-4 lead with under a minute to play. But a big bucket and foul by Anna Sommer allowed her team to close within one at 8-7 heading into the second frame. Meigs was lirst to score in the second quarter on a foul shot, but then fell apart while Point Pleasant went on a 12-0 run to claim a 19-9 lead and would have held the visitors without a field goal in the frame if it weren't for a basket at the The Daily Sentinel • Page 83 Gallia County, OH LeBron says sore toe needs some more rest · Bv ToM WITHERS ASSOCIATED PRESS www.mydallyaentlnel.com .,,Of .ny toM ot . . , _ . . tNI rMUita from the pubflciUon or omiMion of an ldvertiMnWnt.

Tuesday, January 30, 2007 Huntington star Mayo considers legal options HUNTINGTON , W.Va. (AP) - Huntington High School star O.J . Mayo is consideri ng his legal options after he was handed a twogame suspension for collectmg two technical fouls and getting ejected during · the top-ranked Highlanders' win over No. 2 Capital. Mayo could 111e a complaint in Cabell County Circuit Court as early as Tuesday, said his ·attorney. Mike Woelfel. who also ts an assistant coach at Huntington. Mayo was ejected from Friday's game after he followed referee Mike Lazzo to the scorers table and bumped the referee from behind. The Secondary School Activities Commission later suspended the senior for two games. "We feel 0.1 . certainly didn't do anything intentional," Woelfel told The of Herald-Dispatch Huntington on Monday. "If there was contact, it was inadvertent or may have been accidentally initiated by the referee himself." Under SSAC rules, the penalty for receiving two technical fouls in a game or being ejected from a game is a two-game suspension. A student who "in protest lays hands or attempts to lar, hands upon an official ' could be declared ineligible by the principal or the SSAC for up to a year. Mike Hayden. executive director of the SSAC, said the commission continues to !nvestigate the game but he would not elaborate. "0.1 . is a very bright, young man who understands he's in an awkward postlion ." Woelfel said. " It's a very delicate situation. He 's concerned about his future and hi s reputation." Five Huntington reserve players also were ejected and received two-game suspensions. Their parents filed a complaint on Monday in Cabell County Circuit Court seeking a temporary restraining order that would bar the SSAC from imposing the suspensions until a deci sion is made on the players' procedural right to appeal the penalties. Huntington was scheduled to play Tuesday night in Durham, N.C.. again st natiomllly ranked Artesia of Lakewood, Calif. The Highlanders also are to play Friday against Scott County (Ky.) in Lexington, Ky. · Under SSAC rules, 'if a student plays under a restraining order that is later reversed, the team could be forced to forfeit any victories in which the student played. "Given the circumstances, these kids deserve an opportunity to be heard before they are denied the chance of a lifetime because of an arbitrary enforcement of a rule the~ did not intend to violate,' said l'aul Farrell Jr.. one of three attorneys representing the players. Bond s filed for free agency and apparently drew interest from · Oakland, St. Louis, San Diego .and other teams . He reportedly failed an amphetamines test last season. The New York Daily News said that when Bonds first learned of the result, he attributed it to a substance he took from teammate Mark Sweeney's locker. In a public statement. Bonds cleared Sweeney and said, "he did not give me anything whatsoever and has nothing to do with this matter." Bonds didn't address whether he took amphetamines.

Barbaro euthanized; owner calls it 'the right decision' Dungy overcomes tragedy to seek his first ring MIAMI (AP) - After his brother died in an auto accident last September, Reggie Wayne returned to the lndtanapolis Colts to find Tony Dungy waiting to console him - as only a man who has been through hi s own personal tragedies can do. "I was at the lowest point,'' Wayne recalled last week . "Just to hear it from someone who has been through it helps you a lot . Coach Dungy is a strong man - a strong sou I. It was huge for me." Dungy's tragedy came 13 months ago - the suicide of his 18-year-o ld son James . A season later, he 's coaching in the Super Bowl, using the strength that sustained him through his terrible loss to try to get the Colts their first NFL title in 36 years. A victory on Sunday at Dolphin Stadium would validate his cftreer and his quarterback's, Peyton Manning, two men who have been tagged with the line "can' t win the big one." In both cases. the label is unfair. as most labds can be. _Dungy's teams have made the playoffs for eight straight seasons and in nine of the II years he's coached. The eight straight appearances ties for second in that category with his mentor, Chuck Noll.- and puts him behind Tom Landry, the only coach to do it nine consecutive times. Hi s winning percentage of .635, including playoffs. is the highest among active coaches . a fraction of a percentage point higher than the mark for Joe Gibbs. But Gibbs has won three Super Bowls. Dungy is celebrated in his first as much for the color of his skin as his abilities he and Chicago coach Lovie Smith. a protege and good friend . are the first black head coaches to make it there ----- ___ _: The knock has usually been that Dungy lacks what a championship coach needs: the killer instinct to push everything else aside. The television cameras never catch him shouting at an of!icial or cursing under his breath . His priorities are his family and hi s faith. He's also worked hard to advance minority hiring in the NFL, a cause that is clearly in the spotlight this week and was last week , too. "What happened in New York on Monday, what happened in Indianapolis and Chica'go on Sunday and what happened in Pitt sburgh the next Monday may make it the most significant week ever lor African-Americans in football. " said Doug Williams, who 19 years ago became the first black quarterback in a Super Bowl. He was referring to Jerry Reese's appointment as general manage r of the New York Giants, the conference championship wins, and Mike Tomlin 's hiring as coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Dungy is hardly the prototypical coach - he's usually stoic on the sideline, as he had been in dealing with his son's death. After the Colts beat New England to win the AFC championship, he pointedly noted that coaches don' t have to encourage profanity and trash-talking to succeed. His boss agrees. "There are disciplinarians without bein~ disciplinarians." says Btll Polian. the Colts' ge neral manager. " If they bench you. or punish you in some other way, they let you know that it can be rectified, that if what you did wrong is corrected. there arc rewards down the line. " Manning describes his coach in a si milar vein. "He doesn't yell. Or at lea't he doesn't yell very often." he said.

Depending on the •• mentors and the amount of kids the groups may be three kids to one mentor or less. After the homework session Zarcaro said there is a short lesson that usually focuses on drug prevention education or life skills which addresses topics such as self esteem, decision making and social skills. "This program is especially important with kids in this age group because they're very impressionable and it's prime time for them to learn about substance abuse prevention," Zarcaro said.

Failure to comply with the newly adopted village ordinance may carry a $100 fine plus court costs. "This is a village law created by village council and my department has to do their job to enforce it," Proffitt said. "At the same time we want landlords and tenants to know we're there for them too and this inspection is a tool for accountability when documenting damage done to rental property." Proffitt said Patrolman Ronnie Spaun, who is also acting code enforcement officer, hasn't begun his inspections yet but will begin soon.
