And with the $439,146 check presented to the center Monday on behalf of the Ohio Tobacco Prevention Foundation (OTPF),the center will be able to continue their work. The "Advancing Tobacco Use Prevention in Gallia, Jackson and Meigs Counties" award is a oneyear grant that will allow the center to continue providing tobacco cessation and prevention programs to the Southeastern Ohio region, previously funded by a four year grant of the same name, which ended on Dec. 31 , 2006. "Although there will be s some modification to services and programs, especially youth programs, the transition to the new grant should .be seamless," according 10 a Holzer representative. "The Holzer Medical Center Tobacco Prevention Program serves residents of Gallia, Jackson and Meigs counties, and is recognized as the area's leading provider of prevention and cessation programs." During a check presentation ceremony held Monday at 10 a.m., several state and local leaders discussed the program's benefits to the community. According to Joe Mazzola, project manager for the OTPF, the Ohio Tobacco Quitline has helped 15,000 residents quit smoking to date and averages over 150 calls per day with a 26 percent quit rate .

My situation is different. I was married for many years to "John Smith" and was recently divorced. My children are now grown, and I'm planning on getting married again soon to "Bob Jones." My ex-husband and my future husband and I are all close friends, and we get along great. Once I marry Mr. Jones and take his name, would it be proper to use both last names, even though neither is my maiden name?

Feb. 20. the 51st day of 20o1. There are 3 14 days left in the year. Today 's Highlight in History: On Feo. 20. 1962, astronaut John Glenn be\:ame the first American to orbit the Earth, flying aboard Friendship VII . On this date: In 1790, Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II died. In 1792. President George Washington signed an act creating the U.S. Post Office. In 1809. the Supreme Coun, in United States v. Peters, ruled the power of the federal ·government is greater than that of anv individual state. In 1839. Congress prohibited dueling in the District of Columoia. In 1907, President Theodore Roosevelt signed an immigration act which excluded "idiots, imbeciles, feebleminded persons. epileptics, insane persons" from being admitted to the United States. In 1965, the Ranger VIII spacecraft crashed on the moon after sending back thousands of pictures of the lunar surface . · In 1987. Soviet authorities released Jewish activist Josef Begun. · In 2003. fire broke out during a rock concert at The Station nightclub in West Warwick, R.I., killing I00 people and injuring about 200 others. Five years ago: President Bush, on the final leg of his Asian trip, arrived in China, where he urged President Jiang Zemin to respect religious freedoms. A Cairo-to-Luxor passenger train caught fire, killing 360 people. At the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics, Jim Shea won the men's skeleton race. finishing the two runs at Utah Olympic Park in one minute, 41.96 seconds. (The victory was the culmination of an emotional two months for Shea, whose 91-year-old grandfather, Olympic ~old medal speedskater Jack Shea, died four weeks earher.) American speedskater Apolo Anton Ohno won the 1,500 meters after South Korean Kim Dong-sung, who had crossed the finish line ahead of him, was disqualified. One year ago: President George Bush, visiting Milwaukee, outlined his energy proposals to help wean the country off foreign oil. Right-wing British historian Davi!i Irving was sentenced to three years in prison after admitting to an Austrian court that he had denied the Holocaust. At the Turin Olympics, Tanith Belbin and panner Ben Agosto snapped the U.S. medals drought in figure skating with a silver; Russians Tatiana Navka and Roman Kostomarov won the gold. Archbishop Paul C. Marcinkus, a former Vatican bank chief linked to a huge Italian banking scandal in the 1980s, was found dead in his home in Sun City, Ariz. ; he was 84.

Thought for Today: "The life of the nation is secure only while the nation is honest, truthful, and vinuous." frederick Douglass (c.l817-1895 ). PageA4 Tut;sday, February ao, aoo7 Democrats, Bush should take 'yes'for answer, start entitlement talks It's time for the Bush administration and Democratic Congressional leaders to stop talking about talking about entitlement reform -- and actually start talking about reform itsell. lllere's agreement on both sides that beginning soon, the costs of Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid benefits for the ·baby boom generation will put unsustainable burdens on taxpayers and the economy -- <md that something must be done about it Top administration ofticials including Treasury Secretary Henry P.dulson, Office of Management and Budget Director Rob Ponman and White House Chief of Stall. Josh Bolten all have told congressional Democrats they want to hold talks on entitlement reform "without preconditions." A half-dozen specific proposals have been made for bipartisan negotiations on the problem. In fact, a meeting between Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., and President Bush was scheduled for Jan. 17 to begin work on a plan hatched by Sens. Kent Conrad, D-N.D., and Judd Gregg. R-N.H. But the meeting was postponed when ' House Democrats "got skittish," one · insider said. And then Vice President Cheney made statements on "Fox News Sunday" on Jan. 14 that Democrdts took to mean the administra· tion was ruling out tax increases as pan of the solution, and the meeting wasn' rescheduled. Morton Kordacke On top of that. Bush - who said back in 2005 that he was "open" to raising the income cap on payroll taxes -- said in an interview with ABC on Jan .. 30 that "I've gut a veto .that will prevent (Democmts) from raising taxes." That only continued to DemocrJts that the administrJtion does have prei."Onditions. This whole situation reminds me of a major turning point during the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. On the brink of World War III. President John F Kennedy got two cunllicting messages from Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev-- one private and conciliatory, one public and hostile. Kennedy decided to take "yes" for an answer, lead.ing to a stand-down. Democrats ought to take the "everything's on the table" messages they're getting -and keep getting, in public and private -- from j'aulson, Ponman. Bolten and Bush as a "yes" and get on with actual talks about what everyone agrees is an impending crisis that can only be dealt with on a bipanisan basis. Democrats do feel they've conceded upfront -- Conrdd told me in an interview that "it is going to take more savings on the spending side than on the revenue side" to solve the problem -- but that the administration is refusing to concede in advance that "revenue" has to be increased. At the same time, while Bush resists raising taxes, Democrats are just .ss hostile to his proposal for private investment accounts in Social Security. That's even more of a "precondition" on the Democmtic side. Besides distrust and ideology, talks may be complicated by disagreements about the scope and order of talks - and perhaps the shape of the table. In the House, Ways and Means Chairman Charlie Rangel, D-N.Y., is said to be enthusiastic about broadgauge entitlement reforms. but Budget Chairman John Spratt, D-S.C, wants to start with shoner-term budget issues. . In the Senate, Conrad thinks that Medkare, Medicaid, So..-ial Security and health care reform all have to be considered as pan of the negotiations even though Social Security reform is conceptually the easiest. "To me, it just doesn't work" to do Sociai Security frrst. Conrad told me. "You can't give people a sense of urgency because the system doesn't go broke until 2017 or 2018 and. frankly, if economic growth continues to be strong. 80 percent of the problem goes away." It's true that Medicare and Medicare represent five times the fiscal burden of Social Security. On the other hand, if negotiators could agree on a Social Security compromise this year, it could set the stage for more difficult agreements later. Sens. Lindo;ey Graham, RS.C., and Joe Lieberman. IDConn., are preparing a Social Security proposal . that includes middle-ground answers to that "third rail'J controversy -- some additional revenues. a private savings system opemting on top of (not in place ol) guaranteed Social Security benefits, and reducing benefits for future retirees by indexing based on longevity and income. It's significant that the seniors' lobby, AARP, has declared that it understands Social Secutity can't be secured without some reduction in future benefits. That's a major new concession that Congress should take advantage of this year. In 2006, Bush proposed establishment of a bipartisan entitlement commission -- an idea Democrats rejected. Now, Sens. George Voinovich, R-Ohio, Pete Domenici. R-N.M.. and Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., and Rep. Frank Wolf, R- Va., are back with commission proposals, but Gregg and Conrad prefer direct talks between Congress and the administrdlion. So there is still some need for talks about talks. but the main thing is to get on with real talks. Sen. Reid, call the White House.

BY JUUE CARR SMYTH />P STATEHOUSE CORRESPONDENT COLUMBUS - Don' t be afr.tid. Ohioans. It's only math and science . That would be the message of a multiyear public awareness campaign that was among recommendations Monday oy a panel studying ways to improve the state's high-tech future. The panel of educators, scientists, engineers and employers concluded after more than a year of research that Ohioans are just plain phobic about science and math. And it's carrying over to their kids, which is carrying over to their teachers, which is carrying over to the job market. Ohioans have a love-hate relationship with math and the sciences, the advisory committee showed in a report to Gov. Ted Strickland, the state School Board and the Board of Regents that oversees pub- Accident from PageA1 was headed eastbound towards the same traftic light. Shuler and her aunt Kim Schwabe of Miamisburg were leaving ·Weaving Stitches where they'd been shopping and were crossing West Main Street when Spaun said it appeared Shuler dido 't see the car and Jones didn't see Shuler in time to stop. Spaun said Shuler literally ''bounced" off of Jones' windshield which was noticeably damaged though he added she never lost consciousness at the scene . Spaun said at the time traffic was heavy and a large delivery truck was parked near where Shuler and Schwabe crossed the s1reet, possibly obscuring the view of both the pedestrians and the driver. the police repon says Schwabe and her niece did not see any cars coming from the left and did not see the car coming from the right until it was too late with Schwabe lie colleges and universities. In 2004, 78 percent of residents surveyed said high schools should try to prepare all students for college . Two years later, only 55 percent thought so. Conversely, less than half of Ohioans surveyed in 2004 favored requiring algebra, biology and chemistry in school. Two years later, a majority said four years of math and three years of science should be mandatory. Launching a public awareness campaign to explain the value of math and science to Ohio's economic future and telling parents to encourage their children in these areas - would be just the first step to solving the problem. "I think a lot of people did· n' l come up through an education system where math and science was approachable," Ohio State University President Karen Holbrook said Munday. "They just simply weren' t introduced ,to it." The advisory committee. co-chaired by Holbrook and retired NASA Glenn director Julian Earls, recommended a do:ren other actions. Among them: giving students more science and math opponunities in and out of school. otlering incentives and better working conditions to science and math teachers and creating university-busin~ss councils to coordinate what's taught with who's hiring. While 90 percent of the fastest growing occupations require some education beyond high school, Ohio ranked 40th among states in 2002 for the percent of residents with a bachelor's degree or higher.

Presideht Clinton got into a personal situation and ended up lying to the American people. Details of the last three years of his administration, as recorded in the 9/11 Commission Report (pp. 115- 137), showed an administration weakened, likely because of the scandal: "Tenet brought to a principals meeting intelligence that terrorist leaders were expected to gather at a camp near Khowst .. . several hundred would attend including bin Laden. The CIA described the area as effectively a military cantonment ... " (p. 116 ).

State Sen. John Carey of Wellston commented on the success of statewide programs and the imponance of everyone working together. "When you talk about 15.000 people quitting . it's amazing," said Carey. State Rep. Jimmy Stewart of Albany discussed the dangers of smoking and the impact it has on the environment. "TobaGco use is the biggest environment aI problem"," said Stewart. whu equated the environmental effects of smoking to the effects of global warming.

In a presentation entitled "Judy's Story," Lora Rawson. an adult coordinator, told the story of 37-yearold Judy who recently quit smoking with the help of the center. Judy was attending school full -time and working, when she found out she was expecting a child. A long-time smoker, Judy had made several attempts at quitting, but was unsucces.sful. With the help of the program and with perseverance. Judy was able to quit "Quitting is not an easy process," Rawson said. "It often takes five to nine attempts before someone is able to quit for good. We have provided many people with education and assistance: however. our job is not done ." The Holzer Tobacco Prevention Center is stalled with four full-time educators . one pan-time secretary and a full-time project director. Three of the staff have received certilkation from the Mayo Clinic during the past year. and are now rewgnized as Certified Tooacco Treatment Specialists (CTTS). The newer staff members will soon attend training. The adu It coordinator has worked with adults in the area who desire to quit using tobacco and h a~ also worked with several local businesses and industries to provide , cessation . programs for employees who wish to quit. including employees at Holzer Medical Center and Holzer Medical CenterJackson. The youth coordinator has presented tobacco preven\ion programs in all school districts in the three counties, including STAMP, TEG and individualized classroom presentations such as "Jimmie Boogie learns smoking" and about Tobacco X-files." Due to a reduction in funding for these programs. some have been canceled for 2007 and others will be greatly reduced. The prenatal coordinator worked with pregnant women and their family members to provide cessation scrv ices and support provided at various locations including HMC and HMC-J, the Gallia County Health Department.

Feb. 20. the 51st day of 20o1. There are 3 14 days left in the year. Today 's Highlight in History: On Feo. 20. 1962, astronaut John Glenn be\:ame the first American to orbit the Earth, flying aboard Friendship VII . On this date: In 1790, Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II died. In 1792. President George Washington signed an act creating the U.S. Post Office. In 1809. the Supreme Coun, in United States v. Peters, ruled the power of the federal ·government is greater than that of anv individual state. In 1839. Congress prohibited dueling in the District of Columoia. In 1907, President Theodore Roosevelt signed an immigration act which excluded "idiots, imbeciles, feebleminded persons. epileptics, insane persons" from being admitted to the United States. In 1965, the Ranger VIII spacecraft crashed on the moon after sending back thousands of pictures of the lunar surface . · In 1987. Soviet authorities released Jewish activist Josef Begun. · In 2003. fire broke out during a rock concert at The Station nightclub in West Warwick, R.I., killing I00 people and injuring about 200 others. Five years ago: President Bush, on the final leg of his Asian trip, arrived in China, where he urged President Jiang Zemin to respect religious freedoms. A Cairo-to-Luxor passenger train caught fire, killing 360 people. At the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics, Jim Shea won the men's skeleton race. finishing the two runs at Utah Olympic Park in one minute, 41.96 seconds. (The victory was the culmination of an emotional two months for Shea, whose 91-year-old grandfather, Olympic ~old medal speedskater Jack Shea, died four weeks earher.) American speedskater Apolo Anton Ohno won the 1,500 meters after South Korean Kim Dong-sung, who had crossed the finish line ahead of him, was disqualified. One year ago: President George Bush, visiting Milwaukee, outlined his energy proposals to help wean the country off foreign oil. Right-wing British historian Davi!i Irving was sentenced to three years in prison after admitting to an Austrian court that he had denied the Holocaust. At the Turin Olympics, Tanith Belbin and panner Ben Agosto snapped the U.S. medals drought in figure skating with a silver; Russians Tatiana Navka and Roman Kostomarov won the gold. Archbishop Paul C. Marcinkus, a former Vatican bank chief linked to a huge Italian banking scandal in the 1980s, was found dead in his home in Sun City, Ariz. ; he was 84. Sportscaster Curt Gowdy died in Palm Beach, Fla., at age 86. Thought for Today: "The life of the nation is secure only while the nation is honest, truthful, and vinuous." frederick Douglass (c.l817-1895 ). PageA4 Tut;sday, February ao, aoo7 Democrats, Bush should take 'yes'for answer, start entitlement talks It's time for the Bush administration and Democratic Congressional leaders to stop talking about talking about entitlement reform -- and actually start talking about reform itsell. lllere's agreement on both sides that beginning soon, the costs of Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid benefits for the ·baby boom generation will put unsustainable burdens on taxpayers and the economy -- <md that something must be done about it Top administration ofticials including Treasury Secretary Henry P.dulson, Office of Management and Budget Director Rob Ponman and White House Chief of Stall. Josh Bolten all have told congressional Democrats they want to hold talks on entitlement reform "without preconditions." A half-dozen specific proposals have been made for bipartisan negotiations on the problem. In fact, a meeting between Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., and President Bush was scheduled for Jan. 17 to begin work on a plan hatched by Sens. Kent Conrad, D-N.D., and Judd Gregg. R-N.H. But the meeting was postponed when ' House Democrats "got skittish," one · insider said. And then Vice President Cheney made statements on "Fox News Sunday" on Jan. 14 that Democrdts took to mean the administra· tion was ruling out tax increases as pan of the solution, and the meeting wasn' rescheduled. Morton Kordacke On top of that. Bush - who said back in 2005 that he was "open" to raising the income cap on payroll taxes -- said in an interview with ABC on Jan .. 30 that "I've gut a veto .that will prevent (Democmts) from raising taxes." That only continued to DemocrJts that the administrJtion does have prei."Onditions. This whole situation reminds me of a major turning point during the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. On the brink of World War III. President John F Kennedy got two cunllicting messages from Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev-- one private and conciliatory, one public and hostile. Kennedy decided to take "yes" for an answer, lead.ing to a stand-down. Democrats ought to take the "everything's on the table" messages they're getting -and keep getting, in public and private -- from j'aulson, Ponman. Bolten and Bush as a "yes" and get on with actual talks about what everyone agrees is an impending crisis that can only be dealt with on a bipanisan basis. Democrats do feel they've conceded upfront -- Conrdd told me in an interview that "it is going to take more savings on the spending side than on the revenue side" to solve the problem -- but that the administration is refusing to concede in advance that "revenue" has to be increased. At the same time, while Bush resists raising taxes, Democrats are just .ss hostile to his proposal for private investment accounts in Social Security. That's even more of a "precondition" on the Democmtic side. Besides distrust and ideology, talks may be complicated by disagreements about the scope and order of talks - and perhaps the shape of the table. In the House, Ways and Means Chairman Charlie Rangel, D-N.Y., is said to be enthusiastic about broadgauge entitlement reforms. but Budget Chairman John Spratt, D-S.C, wants to start with shoner-term budget issues. . In the Senate, Conrad thinks that Medkare, Medicaid, So..-ial Security and health care reform all have to be considered as pan of the negotiations even though Social Security reform is conceptually the easiest. "To me, it just doesn't work" to do Sociai Security frrst. Conrad told me. "You can't give people a sense of urgency because the system doesn't go broke until 2017 or 2018 and. frankly, if economic growth continues to be strong. 80 percent of the problem goes away." It's true that Medicare and Medicare represent five times the fiscal burden of Social Security. On the other hand, if negotiators could agree on a Social Security compromise this year, it could set the stage for more difficult agreements later. Sens. Lindo;ey Graham, RS.C., and Joe Lieberman. IDConn., are preparing a Social Security proposal . that includes middle-ground answers to that "third rail'J controversy -- some additional revenues. a private savings system opemting on top of (not in place ol) guaranteed Social Security benefits, and reducing benefits for future retirees by indexing based on longevity and income. It's significant that the seniors' lobby, AARP, has declared that it understands Social Secutity can't be secured without some reduction in future benefits. That's a major new concession that Congress should take advantage of this year. In 2006, Bush proposed establishment of a bipartisan entitlement commission -- an idea Democrats rejected. Now, Sens. George Voinovich, R-Ohio, Pete Domenici. R-N.M.. and Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., and Rep. Frank Wolf, R- Va., are back with commission proposals, but Gregg and Conrad prefer direct talks between Congress and the administrdlion. So there is still some need for talks about talks. but the main thing is to get on with real talks. Sen. Reid, call the White House.

BY JUUE CARR SMYTH />P STATEHOUSE CORRESPONDENT COLUMBUS - Don' t be afr.tid. Ohioans. It's only math and science . That would be the message of a multiyear public awareness campaign that was among recommendations Monday oy a panel studying ways to improve the state's high-tech future. The panel of educators, scientists, engineers and employers concluded after more than a year of research that Ohioans are just plain phobic about science and math. And it's carrying over to their kids, which is carrying over to their teachers, which is carrying over to the job market. Ohioans have a love-hate relationship with math and the sciences, the advisory committee showed in a report to Gov. Ted Strickland, the state School Board and the Board of Regents that oversees pub- Accident from PageA1 was headed eastbound towards the same traftic light. Shuler and her aunt Kim Schwabe of Miamisburg were leaving ·Weaving Stitches where they'd been shopping and were crossing West Main Street when Spaun said it appeared Shuler dido 't see the car and Jones didn't see Shuler in time to stop. Spaun said Shuler literally ''bounced" off of Jones' windshield which was noticeably damaged though he added she never lost consciousness at the scene . Spaun said at the time traffic was heavy and a large delivery truck was parked near where Shuler and Schwabe crossed the s1reet, possibly obscuring the view of both the pedestrians and the driver. the police repon says Schwabe and her niece did not see any cars coming from the left and did not see the car coming from the right until it was too late with Schwabe lie colleges and universities. In 2004, 78 percent of residents surveyed said high schools should try to prepare all students for college . Two years later, only 55 percent thought so. Conversely, less than half of Ohioans surveyed in 2004 favored requiring algebra, biology and chemistry in school. Two years later, a majority said four years of math and three years of science should be mandatory. Launching a public awareness campaign to explain the value of math and science to Ohio's economic future and telling parents to encourage their children in these areas - would be just the first step to solving the problem. "I think a lot of people did· n' l come up through an education system where math and science was approachable," Ohio State University President Karen Holbrook said Munday. "They just simply weren' t introduced ,to it." The advisory committee. co-chaired by Holbrook and retired NASA Glenn director Julian Earls, recommended a do:ren other actions. Among them: giving students more science and math opponunities in and out of school. otlering incentives and better working conditions to science and math teachers and creating university-busin~ss councils to coordinate what's taught with who's hiring. While 90 percent of the fastest growing occupations require some education beyond high school, Ohio ranked 40th among states in 2002 for the percent of residents with a bachelor's degree or higher.

Presideht Clinton got into a personal situation and ended up lying to the American people. Details of the last three years of his administration, as recorded in the 9/11 Commission Report (pp. 115- 137), showed an administration weakened, likely because of the scandal: "Tenet brought to a principals meeting intelligence that terrorist leaders were expected to gather at a camp near Khowst .. . several hundred would attend including bin Laden. The CIA described the area as effectively a military cantonment ... " (p. 116 ). After the bureaucrats were finished, the strike was made 12 days after the tip. only to learn that the jihadists had already gone. President Bush has lost suppun of three quarters of our citizens. and while not totally weakened, must make decisions that very well may nut haw 100 percent success: Preventing Iran from be\:oming nuclear is a prime ex.ample.

State Sen. John Carey of Wellston commented on the success of statewide programs and the imponance of everyone working together. "When you talk about 15.000 people quitting . it's amazing," said Carey. State Rep. Jimmy Stewart of Albany discussed the dangers of smoking and the impact it has on the environment. "TobaGco use is the biggest environment aI problem"," said Stewart. whu equated the environmental effects of smoking to the effects of global warming. HMC · President Jim Phillippe and Tom · Tope. president and chief executive officer of Holzer Consolidated Health Systems, spoke· abo ut the local impacts of the program. "It's trulv an effective prO'gram and "rm looking forward to seeing it put to use," said Phillippe. Tope satd the program fits perfectly with what the board is attempting to do by malr.ing Holzer ·campuses smoke free as of July I, 2007.

Tope >aid the company would need to stand strong on its dec is ion t!-) make all campuses smoke free. desptte threats from employees to find work elsewhere. In a presentation entitled "Judy's Story," Lora Rawson. an adult coordinator, told the story of 37-yearold Judy who recently quit smoking with the help of the center. Judy was attending school full -time and working, when she found out she was expecting a child. A long-time smoker, Judy had made several attempts at quitting, but was unsucces.sful. With the help of the program and with perseverance. Judy was able to quit "Quitting is not an easy process," Rawson said. "It often takes five to nine attempts before someone is able to quit for good. We have provided many people with education and assistance: however. our job is not done ." The Holzer Tobacco Prevention Center is stalled with four full-time educators . one pan-time secretary and a full-time project director. Three of the staff have received certilkation from the Mayo Clinic during the past year. and are now rewgnized as Certified Tooacco Treatment Specialists (CTTS). The newer staff members will soon attend training. The adu It coordinator has worked with adults in the area who desire to quit using tobacco and h a~ also worked with several local businesses and industries to provide , cessation . programs for employees who wish to quit. including employees at Holzer Medical Center and Holzer Medical CenterJackson. The youth coordinator has presented tobacco preven\ion programs in all school districts in the three counties, including STAMP, TEG and individualized classroom presentations such as "Jimmie Boogie learns smoking" and about Tobacco X-files." Due to a reduction in funding for these programs. some have been canceled for 2007 and others will be greatly reduced. The prenatal coordinator worked with pregnant women and their family members to provide cessation scrv ices and support provided at various locations including HMC and HMC-J, the Gallia County Health Department. Jackson W IC program. Holzer Clinic and Meig s County Health Department. Fu(,lding for prenatal ces· sation programs was entirely eliminated in the new grant. however s.:fvices will continue to be provided to pre- and pustnatal woil1en throu~h the ~eneral adult cessauon servtces.

Tuesday, February 20,2007 PERSPECDVE: EsTAtE TAX LATEST IN GOP CROSS HAIRS BY MAn LEINGANG ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER COLUMBUS - A proposal by House Republicans to cut or eliminate Ohio's tax on money and possessions left after death is renewing an old debate about whether taxes are forcing Ohioans, especially people close to retirement, to leave for other states. Republicans, in announcing their intent to dismantle the estate tax last week, insist that it discourages people from living here. Former Gov. Bob Taft, a Republican, successfully used a similar argument two years ago to cut personal income taxes and restructure business taxes. . But when it comes to the estate tax, many eJ;onomic studies in other states have not found strong evidence that it causes families to pick up and leave, argues Elizabeth McNichol, a senior fellow at . the Washington-based Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a liberal-leaning think tank. Ohio requires the tax on estates worth more than $338,333 before distribution to heirs or other beneficiaries. If the estate is transferred to a spouse, no tax is due. It's true that warm-weather states that attract people age 65 and older Nevada, Arizona, Florida and Texas - don't collect estate twies, McNichol said. But most people choose to retire based on factors such as closeness to family members, climate and access to quality health care · and transportauon services, she said. Kathy Keller, a spokeswoman for the AARP in Ohio, said those kinds of quality-of-life issues play a greater role in retirement planning than the estate tax . "It's not something that our average member brings up," Keller said. How much people pay depends on their wealth . For property valued between $338,333 and $500,000, the Ohio estate tax is $13,900 plus 6 percent of every dollar over $338,333 . If the estate is valued over $500,000, the tax is $23,600 plus 7 percent of every dollar over $500,000. Ohio is one of 19 states an estate tax, with McNichol said. The federal estate tax applies for estates valued at $2 million but is scheduled to be repealed in 2010, then rein stated in 2011 for estates valued over $1 million. State Rep. Robert Latta, a Republican from Bowling Green, said it may be hard to find a definil!ve study that proves the estate tax is driving Ohioans out of state, but he's had numerous complaints from constituents planning their retirements. "They look at Ohio versus some place like Aorida and say, 'OK. What's this goin~ to cost me if I stay here~" ' Latta said. Latta said it's not just the wealthy who get hit by Ohio's estate tax. "For middle-class families who have a house and other assets, it doesn' t take lon~ to get to $338,000," he sa1d. Democratic Gov. Ted Strickland opposes the plan by Republicans who cuntrol the legislature. He said' cutting Ohio' s estate tax now would be inappropriate because overall growth in tax revenues will not meet expectations, leaving budget planners with $1 billion to $1.5 billion less than projected to spend on govern ment programs. Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm, also a Democrat, called on lawmakers this month to reinstate an estate tax to fix a budget shonfall in her state. Nancy Sponseller, an attorney and estate planner in suburban Columbus, said Ohio's estate tax is a concern for some wealthy clients. But she sees another trend: Retirees moving to Florida or Texas only to return to Ohio when they begin to have health problems. " I see it all the time," Sponseller said. "Seniors get sick and they want to come back to Ohio to be with their families . So they end u~ dying a resident of Ohio.' There are ways for people to avoid or reduce the estate tax, such as setting up trusts or making tax-free gifts to charities. SP\)nseller said. Supporters of Ohio's estate tax, which began· in 1968, say it encourages charitable giving, prevents wealth from beiflg concentrated in the hands of a few and taxes some accumulated capital that was never taxed tn the first place. About 7,700 estates were subject to the tax in the one-year period from mid.2005 to mid-2006. The tax raised $273 million during that time. Under a state formula, 80 percent, or $219 million, was shared with local governments and 20 percent , or $54 million, stayed with the state. Kenyon College swimmer dies after fall in dormitory COLUMBUS (AP) - A Kenyon College swimmer has died after he feU in a dormito!¥ bathroom and struck his head, school officials said Monday. Caleb Gottinger, 19, of Milwaukee, apparently fainted Saturday monung and tests at a medical center near the oollege 55 miles northeast of Columbus determined he suffered a fracrured skull and a hemorrhage, college spokesman Shawn Presley said. Gottinger was declared brain dead Sunday morning after being transferred to Columbus' Riverside Methodist Hospital, and he remained on life support until early Monday so his organs could be donated, hospital and school officials said. He never regained consciousness. Officials at the college in the small town of Gambier did not know what caused Gallinger to faint, but said there was no evidence that alcohol or drugs were involved. "Caleb was a bright, promising student just begiJIDing his career at the college. He will be greaUy missed by his team- mates, friends, faculty members and all who knew him," Kenyon President S. Ge01gia Nugent said in a statement. Gottinger, a standout swimmer at Milwaukee Riverside High School, won the Wisconsin state championship in the 200-yard freestyle in 2005. He also swam freestyle for Kenyon's team, which has won the last 27 NCAA Division Ill tiUes.

Bulldogs rally past Meigs in tournament, 69-66 BY BRYAN WALTERS BWALTERS@MYOA.ll)'TRIBUNE .CO M LOGAN - Free throws and foul trouble - a deadly combination for the Meigs boys basketball team during Monday night's 69-66 setback to Athens in the Division II sectional quarterfinal at Katie Smith Gymnasium. The Marauders (4-16) and Bulldogs battled through 14 lead changes and seven ties during their tightly-contested postseason matchup, and the Maroon and Gold were sitting comfortably with a 54-46 lead at the 4:41 mark of the fourth. However. when Chris Goode and Dave Poole both fouled out during a 21-second span .in the final twoplus minutes, MHS was left without a true prese nce inside. And Athens (6- 15) was there to capitalize, utilizing its interior strength to over- Tolar Bolin come a 60-57 deficit with I :47 remaining by going on a 12-6 run to sneak its way into the sectional semifinal Wednesday against top' ranked Vinton County. The Green and Gold took the lead permanently with 47 seconds left in regulation, as senior Chris Carpinelli converted an old-fashioned three-point play for a 65-64 advantage. Meigs pulled back to within a single point 22 seconds when Casey later Richardson converted a short jumper in the lane for a 67 -66 deficit, but Brad Bentley iced the decision for AHS at the foul line with nine seconds remaining . The Marauders, who hit just 10-of- 17 free throws down the stretch, connected on 23-of-40 charity tosses overall for 58 percent. That less than stellar effort from the stripe more than offset a respectable 47 percent shooting effort (21 -of-44) from the field, as well as an even 32-all margin on the glass. Afterwards MHS coach Travis Abbott was obviously devastated by the seasonending outcome. but the thing that hurt more was how the loss came. "It's heartbreaking. We were in a position to win and the boys played really hard, and I hate it for these guys because this is what has happened to us all season ," Abbott commented. "We get in these close games and then the ball doesn't bounce your way, or the shot rolls around the rim and out. It 's tough to have been this close and have it slip out of your fin gers." He was also quick to point out that the late foul trouble didn't help, but Abbott did feel his squad let it gel away at the foul line. "We did not shoot free throws well, we were terriole. If we hit our free throivs, we win this game," Abbott said. "When Poole and Goode fouled out , that was when things really changed for us. When tho'e guys are in the game, we are a completely different team." Athens shot SO percent (6of-12) from the floor while leading the entire first quarter, jumping out 10 a 16-12 edge after eight minutes of play.

The Red and Gold battled back, outscoring the hosts 29- 17 in the final stanza. However, that late rally came up well shon . The Black, White an~ Red had seven players reacll the scoring column, including four with double ligures. The sophomore duo of J.D.

Brenton Clark scored five of his team high 25 points in overtime Monday evening as the Wahama White Falcons held off a second half charge by the visiting Wirt County Tigers for a 7167 victory on senior night at the Bend Area campus.

Jesse Ward, who finished with a game high 31 points on the evening. converted his sixth three pointer of the night to pull Win County back into contention.

Tuesday, February 20,2007 PERSPECDVE: EsTAtE TAX LATEST IN GOP CROSS HAIRS BY MAn LEINGANG ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER COLUMBUS - A proposal by House Republicans to cut or eliminate Ohio's tax on money and possessions left after death is renewing an old debate about whether taxes are forcing Ohioans, especially people close to retirement, to leave for other states. Republicans, in announcing their intent to dismantle the estate tax last week, insist that it discourages people from living here. Former Gov. Bob Taft, a Republican, successfully used a similar argument two years ago to cut personal income taxes and restructure business taxes. . But when it comes to the estate tax, many eJ;onomic studies in other states have not found strong evidence that it causes families to pick up and leave, argues Elizabeth McNichol, a senior fellow at . the Washington-based Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a liberal-leaning think tank. Ohio requires the tax on estates worth more than $338,333 before distribution to heirs or other beneficiaries. If the estate is transferred to a spouse, no tax is due. It's true that warm-weather states that attract people age 65 and older Nevada, Arizona, Florida and Texas - don't collect estate twies, McNichol said. But most people choose to retire based on factors such as closeness to family members, climate and access to quality health care · and transportauon services, she said. Kathy Keller, a spokeswoman for the AARP in Ohio, said those kinds of quality-of-life issues play a greater role in retirement planning than the estate tax . "It's not something that our average member brings up," Keller said. How much people pay depends on their wealth . For property valued between $338,333 and $500,000, the Ohio estate tax is $13,900 plus 6 percent of every dollar over $338,333 . If the estate is valued over $500,000, the tax is $23,600 plus 7 percent of every dollar over $500,000. Ohio is one of 19 states an estate tax, with McNichol said. The federal estate tax applies for estates valued at $2 million but is scheduled to be repealed in 2010, then rein stated in 2011 for estates valued over $1 million. State Rep. Robert Latta, a Republican from Bowling Green, said it may be hard to find a definil!ve study that proves the estate tax is driving Ohioans out of state, but he's had numerous complaints from constituents planning their retirements. "They look at Ohio versus some place like Aorida and say, 'OK. What's this goin~ to cost me if I stay here~" ' Latta said. Latta said it's not just the wealthy who get hit by Ohio's estate tax. "For middle-class families who have a house and other assets, it doesn' t take lon~ to get to $338,000," he sa1d. Democratic Gov. Ted Strickland opposes the plan by Republicans who cuntrol the legislature. He said' cutting Ohio' s estate tax now would be inappropriate because overall growth in tax revenues will not meet expectations, leaving budget planners with $1 billion to $1.5 billion less than projected to spend on govern ment programs. Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm, also a Democrat, called on lawmakers this month to reinstate an estate tax to fix a budget shonfall in her state. Nancy Sponseller, an attorney and estate planner in suburban Columbus, said Ohio's estate tax is a concern for some wealthy clients. But she sees another trend: Retirees moving to Florida or Texas only to return to Ohio when they begin to have health problems. " I see it all the time," Sponseller said. "Seniors get sick and they want to come back to Ohio to be with their families . So they end u~ dying a resident of Ohio.' There are ways for people to avoid or reduce the estate tax, such as setting up trusts or making tax-free gifts to charities. SP\)nseller said. Supporters of Ohio's estate tax, which began· in 1968, say it encourages charitable giving, prevents wealth from beiflg concentrated in the hands of a few and taxes some accumulated capital that was never taxed tn the first place. About 7,700 estates were subject to the tax in the one-year period from mid.2005 to mid-2006. The tax raised $273 million during that time. Under a state formula, 80 percent, or $219 million, was shared with local governments and 20 percent , or $54 million, stayed with the state. Kenyon College swimmer dies after fall in dormitory COLUMBUS (AP) - A Kenyon College swimmer has died after he feU in a dormito!¥ bathroom and struck his head, school officials said Monday. Caleb Gottinger, 19, of Milwaukee, apparently fainted Saturday monung and tests at a medical center near the oollege 55 miles northeast of Columbus determined he suffered a fracrured skull and a hemorrhage, college spokesman Shawn Presley said. Gottinger was declared brain dead Sunday morning after being transferred to Columbus' Riverside Methodist Hospital, and he remained on life support until early Monday so his organs could be donated, hospital and school officials said. He never regained consciousness. Officials at the college in the small town of Gambier did not know what caused Gallinger to faint, but said there was no evidence that alcohol or drugs were involved. "Caleb was a bright, promising student just begiJIDing his career at the college. He will be greaUy missed by his team- mates, friends, faculty members and all who knew him," Kenyon President S. Ge01gia Nugent said in a statement. Gottinger, a standout swimmer at Milwaukee Riverside High School, won the Wisconsin state championship in the 200-yard freestyle in 2005. He also swam freestyle for Kenyon's team, which has won the last 27 NCAA Division Ill tiUes.

Bulldogs rally past Meigs in tournament, 69-66 BY BRYAN WALTERS BWALTERS@MYOA.ll)'TRIBUNE .CO M LOGAN - Free throws and foul trouble - a deadly combination for the Meigs boys basketball team during Monday night's 69-66 setback to Athens in the Division II sectional quarterfinal at Katie Smith Gymnasium. The Marauders (4-16) and Bulldogs battled through 14 lead changes and seven ties during their tightly-contested postseason matchup, and the Maroon and Gold were sitting comfortably with a 54-46 lead at the 4:41 mark of the fourth. However. when Chris Goode and Dave Poole both fouled out during a 21-second span .in the final twoplus minutes, MHS was left without a true prese nce inside. And Athens (6- 15) was there to capitalize, utilizing its interior strength to over- Tolar Bolin come a 60-57 deficit with I :47 remaining by going on a 12-6 run to sneak its way into the sectional semifinal Wednesday against top' ranked Vinton County. The Green and Gold took the lead permanently with 47 seconds left in regulation, as senior Chris Carpinelli converted an old-fashioned three-point play for a 65-64 advantage. Meigs pulled back to within a single point 22 seconds when Casey later Richardson converted a short jumper in the lane for a 67 -66 deficit, but Brad Bentley iced the decision for AHS at the foul line with nine seconds remaining . The Marauders, who hit just 10-of- 17 free throws down the stretch, connected on 23-of-40 charity tosses overall for 58 percent. That less than stellar effort from the stripe more than offset a respectable 47 percent shooting effort (21 -of-44) from the field, as well as an even 32-all margin on the glass. Afterwards MHS coach Travis Abbott was obviously devastated by the seasonending outcome. but the thing that hurt more was how the loss came. "It's heartbreaking. We were in a position to win and the boys played really hard, and I hate it for these guys because this is what has happened to us all season ," Abbott commented. "We get in these close games and then the ball doesn't bounce your way, or the shot rolls around the rim and out. It 's tough to have been this close and have it slip out of your fin gers." He was also quick to point out that the late foul trouble didn't help, but Abbott did feel his squad let it gel away at the foul line. "We did not shoot free throws well, we were terriole. If we hit our free throivs, we win this game," Abbott said. "When Poole and Goode fouled out , that was when things really changed for us. When tho'e guys are in the game, we are a completely different team." Athens shot SO percent (6of-12) from the floor while leading the entire first quarter, jumping out 10 a 16-12 edge after eight minutes of play.

Brenton Clark scored five of his team high 25 points in overtime Monday evening as the Wahama White Falcons held off a second half charge by the visiting Wirt County Tigers for a 7167 victory on senior night at the Bend Area campus.

Jesse Ward, who finished with a game high 31 points on the evening. converted his sixth three pointer of the night to pull Win County back into contention.

" ) was Casey glad to see (Harri so n) get bac k into hi s offensive rhythm and Jordan Smith came up with a couple of big baskets late in re gulation . Pearson had some big rebounds for us and Gabe Rou sh Josh Pauley contributed off the bench with some outstanding defensive efforts ." Clark netted 25 points on the ni ght with Harrison following close be hind with 22 and Jordan Smith with 12. Wirt County received an outstanding effort on the part of Je sse nectin g on 5-of- 15 tloor attempts. AHS was also 5of-7 at the foul line during the thi rd stanza. MHS , on the other hand, went 5-of-B from the field and 6-of-9 at the stripe . There were six lead changes and three ties during that spa n. Meigs had the hut hand again, starting the fourth on a I0-4 run over the opening 3: 18 for its biggest lead of the night at 54-46. And things started lookin g really good for the Marauders at the threeminute mark, when the Athens bench was accessed a technical fou l for a comment to a referee. As Aaron Cordell sank both tec hnical free throws for a 58-53 advantage, momentum clearly appeared to be on the guests' side. However, Goode picked up his fifth foul at the 2:08 mark, and momentum staned to shift as Roben Elmore sank 1-of-2 tries to trim the deficit to 59-54. Then at I :47, Poole was disqualified with his fifth personal. and Steven Eberts cut the lead to one possession with a free throw. His score made the contest 6057, in favor of Meigs. Athens then went on an 84 run that was capped by Carpinelli 's three-pointer. giving the hosts their first Wirl Co. Wahama 17 12 18 16 4 14 23 12 14 a - 67 71 Chop WIRT CO.

The • WHS advan ta ge quickly dissipated with the beginning of third quarter action and the two teams were in a dogfight throughout the remainder of the ga me. Clark totaled 18 of his team hi gh 25 poi nts in the opening two periods with Harrison notching I 0 of hi s 22 point s in the first half to stake Wahama to a 37-29 half-time edg e. The Tigers clawed their way back in to th e thi ck of the battle behind Ward and Chase Mills during third quarter play to trim the Falcon lead to a mere two points at 49-4 7 with eight minutes to play. Again Wahama forged into a six point advantage at 55-49 after Harrison and Jordan Smith connected on back-to-hack baskets, but again Win Cou nty fought back to even the count behind the scoring of Michael Davis who joined Ward and Mills offensive he roics . With th e score knotted at 63 -63. eac h team had an opportunity to end the outing in the final minute of reg ulation , but Meigs from PageBl opening frame, as well as 4of-11 at the chari ty st ripe. MHS, despite eight turnovers, rallied back in the second period to take its first lead at 23-22. Clay Bolin's old-fashioned threepoint play at .~: 1.1 started u chain reaction of four lead changes that ultimately led to a 27-all intermission score. Meigs shot 6-of-10 from the field and hit all three of its free throw attempts in the second canto, while AHS ended the half 4-of-18 from the floor and 3-of-6 at the stripe. The Marauders also held a 16- 14 rebounding edge at the break. but were outrebounded 5-4 on the offen sive glass. AHS had seven turnovers at halftime. two less than the guests. MHS started the second half with an 11 -5 run over the opening 3:50. establishing a 38-32 lead. The Bulldogs responded with ' an 8-2 run over the next 2:28. tying the game at 40 with I :42 left in the third.

The hosts shot only 33 percent in that periO<.l. con- "Doug and his staff have been working hard on the recruiting trail , and it is important that those recruits know we arc going to be diligent and expeditious in finding the best possible replacement," said Debbie Lazorik, athletics director. Marietta closed the regular season at 5-20 with Saturday's 74-68 loss to Baldwin-Wallace. Foote, who compiled a 147-288 record in his 15 years, is tied with Frank Hayes as the second longestserving men's basketball coach at the school. the Tigers turned the ball over on its final possession with the White Falcons misfiring on a last second attempt. . In the overtime period Clark drained a co uple of quick short range jumpers to force Wirt County into playing catch-up. Ward s trey and a free throw by Davis pulled the Tigers back into conte nti on before Ha rrison sank one of two from the stripe to make it a 69-6 7 contest. Wirt County missed on a last second shot attempt with Pearson wrestling the rebound away for Wahama. Pearson was promptl y fouled and he calmly nailed a pair from th e charity st ripe with only 0.5 left to play to seal the 71-67 WHS win. "Clark stepped up for us when we really needed him to in the ove rtime period," said Toth. " ) was Casey glad to see (Harri so n) get bac k into hi s offensive rhythm and Jordan Smith came up with a couple of big baskets late in re gulation . Pearson had some big rebounds for us and Gabe Rou sh Josh Pauley contributed off the bench with some outstanding defensive efforts ." Clark netted 25 points on the ni ght with Harrison following close be hind with 22 and Jordan Smith with 12. Wirt County received an outstanding effort on the part of Je sse nectin g on 5-of- 15 tloor attempts. AHS was also 5of-7 at the foul line during the thi rd stanza. MHS , on the other hand, went 5-of-B from the field and 6-of-9 at the stripe . There were six lead changes and three ties during that spa n. Meigs had the hut hand again, starting the fourth on a I0-4 run over the opening 3: 18 for its biggest lead of the night at 54-46. And things started lookin g really good for the Marauders at the threeminute mark, when the Athens bench was accessed a technical fou l for a comment to a referee. As Aaron Cordell sank both tec hnical free throws for a 58-53 advantage, momentum clearly appeared to be on the guests' side. However, Goode picked up his fifth foul at the 2:08 mark, and momentum staned to shift as Roben Elmore sank 1-of-2 tries to trim the deficit to 59-54. Then at I :47, Poole was disqualified with his fifth personal. and Steven Eberts cut the lead to one possession with a free throw. His score made the contest 6057, in favor of Meigs.

What do you tt;nk ol North's raise to three no-trump? At the risk of making you ~ as ! you are watching Miss America, let's take those questions in reverse order. North has too weak a hand to contem· plate five clubs as a final contract, so he should raise to three no-trump and hope lor the best. (Yes, I know that live dubs makes here, butlhat isn't the point!) You have seven top tri<b, so need to make use ot dummy's clubs. After a diamond lead, you would duck a club, guarding against a 3-1 spirt. When West leads a high spaclo, though, you cannot afford that luxury. You must run the ~ubs. hoping that they break 2-2. But that is no1 an: If you are careless, the suit will become bfocl<od. You must cash the king belore leading the eig'h1 to li!mmy's ace. When the opponents' four cards do divide 2-2, you can run the rest of the suit (starting with ci.u'{lm',''s seven, of oouJS&) for at least 11 tr~ . and probably 12 if West discards a diamond.

What do you tt;nk ol North's raise to three no-trump? At the risk of making you ~ as ! you are watching Miss America, let's take those questions in reverse order. North has too weak a hand to contem· plate five clubs as a final contract, so he should raise to three no-trump and hope lor the best. (Yes, I know that live dubs makes here, butlhat isn't the point!) You have seven top tri<b, so need to make use ot dummy's clubs. After a diamond lead, you would duck a club, guarding against a 3-1 spirt. When West leads a high spaclo, though, you cannot afford that luxury. You must run the ~ubs. hoping that they break 2-2.

REED BREED@M't'DAILYSENTINEL.COM POMEROY -The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency will focus on potential water quality impa~ts from American Electric Power's proposed clean-coal power plant at a public hearing on March 6 in Pomeroy. The EPA has determined that discharges from con· struction or operation of the $1 billion plant would not exceed the chemical-specilic water quality standards that protect aquatic life and human health, but that construction would result in a change to the current water quality of an unnamed tributary to the Ohio River and to the Ohio, itself. Therefore, EPA is required to consider the technical, social, economic and environme'ntal impacts of the project. If approved, the project would remove up to 360,000 cubic yards of material from the Ohio River bank, 1111 a half-acre of wetlands and 7,926 linear feet of intermittent streams. The public session will begin at 6:30 p.m ., \\lith an information period, with the hearing to follow in the. Meigs High School cafeteria. Those who wish to comment my mail or be placed on a mailing list of interested parties may do so by contacting the EPA Division of Surface Water, Attn: Permits Processing Unit, P.O. Box I049, Columbus, Ohio 43216·1 049. Comments must be received by March 13, and will be considered before a tina! derision is made on the project. AEP recently completed the front-end engineering plan for its proposed plant at Great Bend. An application is now before the Ohio Power Siting Board. and AEP is working with designers of the plant and one like it proposed for wnstruction in Mason County, W.Va .. to reduce anticipated construction costs, before proceeding with a cost recovery application through the state. The proposed 600megawatt plant and that planned for Mm.on County, were lirst expected to cost $1 .3 billion each. An AEP spokesman said last month AEP has not announced . the latest cost projection, but conlirmed that the rising cost of labor and building materials put the estimated cost over that original estimate.

RUTLAND - A decision on the Rutland water tank project is needed if it wants the continued help of the Community Rural Assistance Partnership (RCAP) which recently assisted Racine in securing funds for its new water treatment project. Bob Allen of RCAP has been working in various stages of the Rutland project since its beginnings in May 200 I when the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) · notified RCAP that the village needed to replace its water taok . In a letter sent to Rutland Village Council which was discussed at its recent meeting, Allen stated due to the demand for RCAP services the organization must focus on projects th11t are actively moving forward. Allen suggested if the project wasn't moving forward that the village contact the Leading Creek Conservancy District about taking over Rutland's water system. Mayor ·April Burke said she· d been told by Debra . Prim of the Ohio EPA that · the village didn't need a water tank . Burke said she would check with Prim to determine whether or not the village ' is required to replace its water tank and , report the findings at the next council meeting when a decision about going for· ward with the project will be made. In other council business: Employee Gary Freeman asked for an increase in pay. Freeman does the village's sewer testing and said his job required more work than the job of villa~e water operator Rob Birchheld and since Birchfield recently received a raise because of an increase in his duties, Freeman felt he deserved a raise also. Council approved increasing Freeman's pay from $250 to $400 per pay period. The village has 26 pay periods per year. The issue of employee comp-time once again was discussed by council and village employees. Employee Dave Davis stated .he preferred being able to use the comp-tirne when he needed it with the option to get paid for what wasri 't used. The village's current comp-time policy states employee; must use earned comp-time within a twoweek period. Davis and village employee Ray De Win earn comp-time in lieu of overtime and feel it's not Pluse see Rutland, A5 POMEROY - Cookies from the recent cookie con· test at the Meigs County Senior Citizens Center recently took a bite out of hunger by raising funds for the Meals on Wheels Program, with more hungerfighting fundraisers to follow.
