Reed/ photo �The Daily Sentinel PageA2 NATION • WORLD Friday, March 9, 2007 House Democrats' measure would tie Bush to Study: Big-dty murders spike 2008 Iraq troop withdrawal; veto thr~atened by 10 percent BY DAVID ESPO AP SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT WASHINGTON - In the House, Democrah favo r firm deadlines for withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq. In the Senate, they lean toward nonbinding goals. Either way, Congress and the Bush administration are on a collision course. House Democratic leaders vowed Thursday to pass legislation setting a deadline of Sept. I , 2008, for the withdrawal of U.S. combat troops from Iraq, a challenge to President Bush's war policy that drew a blum veto threat in return. " It would unnecessarily handcutl our generals on the ground. and it's safe to say it's a nonstaner for the president," said White House spokesman Dan Banlett. Little more than two months after Democrats took control of the House and Senate. Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California said the bill would set "dates certain for the first time in the Congress for the redeployment of our troops out of Iraq." Officials said the deadline would be accelerated possibly lo the end of 2007 - if the government of Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri ai-Maliki failed to meet commitments for taking over security operations, distributing oil revenue and opening his nation's constitution to amendments. Pelosi said Democrats would add their war-related provisions to the administration's request for nearly $100 billion to pay for the fightin$ in Iraq and Afghamstan. The plan is to vote on the bill by the end of the month, making it the first major test of I he Democrats' power since they rode a wave of anti-war vo1er sentiment to midterm election victories last fall. Across the Capitol , Senate Democrats readied a less sweeping challenge to the commander in chief. Their version would set a target date of March 3 I, 2008, for the withdrawal of combat troops - but no deadline. The measure says U.S. forces could stay beyond that date only lo protect U.S. personnel. train . Sen.

"We can' t stay in Iraq forever," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D- Nev. Reid has considerably less leeway than Pelosi, since Senate rules give Republicans greater power than their counterparts have in the House. Presidential politics also figure in his calculations. Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, a candidate for the White House, told reporters the measure includes some of the key provisions of a bill he introduced earlier this year setting a March 31, 2008, target for withdrawal. "It expresses the central insight that we can't have our troops policing a civil war," he said. Of the 141,000 U.S. troops in Iraq, roughly 60,000 are combat forces · and the rest are support troops. Bartlett attacked the House measure in comments to reporters aboard Air Force One as Bush tlew South America. to "Obviously, the administration would vehemently oppose and ultimately veto any legislation that looked like what was described today," he said. House Minority Leader John Boehner. R-Ohio, led the GOP counterattack. "General (David) Petraeus should be the one making the decisions on what happens on the ground in Iraq, not Nancy Pelosi or John Munha," Boehner said, referring to the Pennsylvania Democrat who has been heavily involved in crafting legislation desi~ned to end U.S. panicipatJOn in lhe war. Pelosi and other Democratic leaders have struggled in recenl days to devise an approach on the war thai would satisfy liberals reluctant to vote for continued funding without driving ·away more moderate Democrats unwilling to be seen as tying the hands of military commanders. Democratic aides said ' their greatest concern was persuading liberals to come aboard, and they were hoping anti-war organizations would come out in favor of the House measure. Rep. Maxine Waters of California said she told Pelosi she intended to vote no. and Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas said she "would have a very difficult time" supponing it. Bv GEORGE JAHN VIENNA, Austria - Iran on Thursday shrugged off the latest punitive U.N. action - · suspension of nearly two dozen nuclear aid pro¥I'ams -and showed no signs II was cowed by the possibility of even tougher penalties in the form of new Security Council sanctions. The deci.sion by the 35 board nations of the International Atomic Energy Agency to deprive Tehran of 22 technical aid projects was symbolically important. Only Nonh Korea and Saddam Hussein's Iraq had beeq subjecl to such action previously. Still, none of the programs directly applied to the Islamic republic's developing uraniurn enrichment program which Tehran refuses to mothball despite nearly three months of Security Council sanctions and the possibility that those punitive measures may be tightened. Ali Ashgar Soltanieh, Iran's chief delegate to the IAEA. said h after the board l)g· by c nsensus to susthe prog "None of the projects are related to ernie ent," he said of the suspens· ns. ''The enrichment prognun ill continue as planned.'' IAEA technical aid projects are meant to bolster the peaceful use of nuclear energy in medicine. agriculture, waste management, managernent training or power generatioQ. The technical aid is provided to dozens of countries. most of them developing nations - but none suspt-cted of possibly trying to develop nuclear weapons. like Iran. • Eruichment, by contrast, has both peaceful and military applications. Iran says it wants to develop its enrichment program only to generate nuclear, power, and enrichment is not prohibit~ under the Nuclear 1'/onprohferatton Treaty. But Tehran's secretive nuclear. ~ays - it hid sensiuve acuvmes from the world for ~ly two decades un!tl revelauo~ four years ago ot a coven ennc~ent proJ~I ~ed the Secllf!tY Counctl to tmpose san~uons Dec. 23 because of tears tts nuclear activities were a cover for a weal'?ns program. sun. there is little evidence the sanctions are working, beyond generating some domestic criticism of bardline Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who last month compared Tehran's enrichment program to an unstoppable train without brakes. And the sanctions themselves are milder than what their chief proponent, Washington, would like. Instead of choking off lrJII economically and politically, they only commit all U.N. member countries to stop supplying Iran with materials and technology that could contribute to its nuclear and missile programs and to freeze · ts of 10 key l!-JIIian comp· · s and 12 individuals relat · . prognuns. Russian aDd Chinese opposition to tougher action blunted Washington's sanciions drive - and there was evidence of the same in attempts to keep Security CounCil unitv on new sanctions meant to punish lrJII tor ignoring last month's deadline on suspending enrichment. Within the House, the Progre ssive Caucus suppons a plan to limit the use of war funds for withdrawing troops, training Iraqis and other noncombal missions. It is doomed to failure. but Democratic leaders have been discussing whether to allow a vote on it if in return, liberals would then swing behind their bill. · At the same time, Rep. Dennis Cardoza of California said a meeting of moderate and conservative Democrats produced strong expressions of suppon. "I think that this legislation gives the generals adequate flexibility to do what ther, need to do on the gi'Qund, ' he said. "At the same time it ~ives a cenain finality that 1s being demanded by the American people." Officials said a Wednesday night meeting of first-term Democrats r,roduced lillie opposition. ' For me it supports the troops, suppons the veterans and holds the president accountable," said Rep. Ed Perlmutter of ColorJdo. Democrats can afford only 15 defections and still be assured of passing their legislation in the House. Few .Republicans are expected to vote in favor. Is U.N. ASSOCIATED PR£SS WRITER AP photo Seeking suppon. the leadership added $1.2 billion to Bush\ reque't for military operations in Afghani stan and $3 .5 billion for veterans' health care and medical programs at facilities such as the recently criticized Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington. Domestic spending would rise $12 billion over the administration's request and there apparently were no plans to offset the spending to prevent increases in the deficit. Searching for votes elsewhere, Pelosi signaled she was considering adding a House-passed minimum wage increase to the military spending bill, along with $1.3 billion in tax cuts that cleared earlier in the year. A provision lo require Bush to get authorization from Congress to take major military action against Iran ran into turbulence from lawmakers concerned about the implications for Israel. As described by Democrats, the legislation would require Bush to cenify by July I and again by Oct. I whether the Iraqi government was making progress toward providing for the country's security, allocating its oil revenues and creating a fair system for amending its constitution. ·u Bush cenified the Iraqis were meeting those benchmarks, U.S. combat troops would have to begin withdrawing by March I, 2008, and complete the redeploy. menl by Sept. I. Otherwise, the deadlines would move up. If Bush cannot make either cenification, the law requires a six-month withdrawal to begin immediately. The legislation also requires the Pentagon to a,dhere to its existing standards for equipping and training U.S. troops sent overseas and for providing time at home between tours of combat. Bush would have authority to waive these standards, though, meaning they could nol be used to prevent the buildup of troops in Baghdad that the president ordered in January. Council diplomats on Wednesday said the five permanent Council members were again stmggling, with U.S., Britain and France pushing for tougher measures than Russia and China will accept The impasse led to Security Council amb1ssadors sending the prohlem back to high level discussions among their capitals. Senior foreign ministry diplomats from the five permanent Security Council nations and Germany held a conference call Thursday to trv to resolve the differences. u·.N. diplomats said ambas- ,, sadors from the six countries might also · meet later Thursday. "We are chipping away at any remaining differences that might exist," Slate Depanment spokesman Sean McCormack said in Washington. "Everybody is commited to moving forward. It's just a matter of time, working out the details and the language." McCormack said the United Stales was working "very cooperatively with the Russian government, working very well with them." He made no mention of China. Pundits often compared Iran to Nonh Korea - the other country of nuclear ~-on­ cern that recently a~reed to disarm - in argumtl that sanctions work. But m the Nonh 's case. any such pressure was a serious blow lo a country that had few friends in the outside world and a devastated economy.

FBI data similarly ha~ shown a rise in violent crime - if not as dramatic - since 2004. The · Justice Depanment says crime was historically low that year. "Two years worth of double-digit increases in violent crime demonstrates an unmistakable change in the extent and the nature of crime in America," said Chuck Wexler. executive director of the nonprofit think tank that is funded in pan by the Justice Depanmenl, as well as corporations and privat~ foupdatioos. '.'1bere are those that say this is a statistical blip, an aberration," Wexler said. "Atier two years, this is no aberration." The repon surveyed crime rates in 56 large U.S. metropolitan areas including Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas and Washington. It did not include violent crime rates in New York, the nation's largest city, which did not panicipate in the voluntaty survey. An advance c~y of the report. titled "Violent Crime in America: 24 Months of Alarming Trends," was obtained by The Associated Press. · The report compared crime statistics from 2004. 2005 and 2006 and tracked how much they had changed over the 24 months beginning Jan: I, 2005. Justice spokesman Deaq Boyd called the depanmenl "concerned about thu increase in violent crime in some cities and towns" as was reponed in FBI data released last fall. Attorney General Albeno Gonzales has asked Congress to spell<! $200 million next year to help cities and regions com' bat gangs, illicit drugs and gun offenses. ''1be Department of Justice is committed to ensuring the safety of every Amencan city and town," Boyd saKI. The forum's study found: • Forty of the 56 surveyed police depanments, or 71 percent, saw homicide rate~ increase since 2004. That translated into an overall! 0.2 percent jump in murders. Between 2005 and 2006, the increase in · murders was much lower; 2.8 percent · ' • Robberies rose among the cities by 6 percent since 200.:; and 12 percent since 2004.

BY KATHY MITCHELL AND MARCY SUGAR Dear Annie : Should a little boy have an American Girl uoll '' My 5year-old son talks about nothing else since his o lder sister got one for Christmas . Hi ' 6th birth day is coming up. and he says all he wants is that doll . He loves to play with the Barbie that his older sister gave him . We have not objected, si nce it seems harmle" . but other boys hi ' age are leaving the dolls behind ,and gro wing out of the girly stuff. "Danny" also likes to play with girls , even though we have tried to get him to play with boys. The boys are usually too rough for him. and often. Danny is picked on. My husband is OK with the dolls, since he played with dolls when he was a child. My husband is rtot the most "manly" kind of guy, as he is not into sports and stuff like that. but he's great with the 1-:ids and helping around the house. So, should we buv Danny his American Girl doH? - Sissy's Mom ·• Dear Mom : We often ·imbue toys with more characteristics than thev deserve . Danny' s sexwil orientation is not going to change because he is a gentle soul whose older sister is one of his role models. If he preferred playing with building hlocks or modeling clay , you wouldn't think twice . For most ·people, the biggest obstacle to buying this doll is the price tag . If that 's no problem. pretend it's a historical action figure . Better?

Thought for Today: " It is the nature of man to rise to greatness if greatness is eKpected of him." - John Steinbeck, American author ( 1902- 1968). OPINION It's rare to hear political leaders speak with candor when it comes to religion . Imagine the angry newspaper headlines if a world famous legislator dared to say: "I fear for the future of authentic faith in our country. We live in a time when the common man ... is thoro ughly influenced by the current climate in which the cultural and educational elite propagates an antiChristian message. We should take a look at what has happened in France and learn a lesson from it." How would pundits respond if the same politico then said : " Is it any wonder. .. that the spiritual condition of our country is of little concern to those who don't even educate their own children about true Christianity?" Of course, a modern politician didn't air these blunt words on " Meet the Press." An 18th-century member of Parliament named William Wilberforce published them in a Briti sh best se ller titled "A Practical View of the Prevailing Religious System of Professed Christians in the Higher and Middle Classes in Thi s Country, Contrasted with Real Christianity." "The first time I read that book, I thought , ' It's hard to work through some of the old language, but what the man is saying could have been written yesterday,' " said the Rev. Bob Beltz, an evangelical Presbyterian Terry Mattingly who oversees special media projects for billionaire investor Philip Anschutt. "I kept writing '1797' over and over in the page margins, with eKclamation marks. His words are so relevant that it's shocking." The question is whether modern Americans will admire Wilberforce as much as Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln and others admired him in the past and, perhaps, go see his life story on a movie screen . Modern Wilberforce disciples are doing what they can, producing new book s, ed ucational projects and political activism (www. theamazingchange .c om) tied to his legacy. For examp le . Beltz set out to translate the heart of Wilberforc·e 's book into mode rn language, a slim volume now called ''Real Christianity." Proceeds will go to the Dalit Freedom Network that is active in India. At the same time, Beltz was involved with Bristol Bay Productions to produce the new movie " Amazing Grace," released on the 200th anniversary of Wilberforce's greatest vic- -= Friday, March 9, 2007 ~ Obituaries tory. It was on Feb. ·23, 1807, that the slave trade wa s abolis hed throughout the British Empire after years of struggle that taxed the abolitionist's faith, will and health. "Amazing Grace" opened on a modest 791 screens and grossed $4 million its first weekend , a $5,442per-screen average that matched the top releases. The studio hope s to increase its promotional budget and reach more screens in upcoming weeks. "We know that this isn't the ordinary kind of movie that makes people 11\sh to th e theater," said Beltz. "Then again, Wilberforce wasn't your ordinary kind of man." Born in a successful merchant family, Wilberforce won a seat in the House of Commons in 1780, shortly after graduating from Cambridge University and celebrating his 21st birthday. Before long, he was both a radical social reformer and a radical evangelist who - after two years of intellectual and spiritual turmoil - came to see no conflict between his twin callings in the public square. Thus , Wilberforce, on Oct. 28, 1787, wrote in his diary that, "God Almighty has set before me two great objects , the suppression of the slave trade and the reformation of manners." In that era, pledging to reform "manners" meant supporting public efforts to pro- mote moral virtue and oppose vice . As if these passions were not enough, Wilberforce was also a spectacular orator, writer, singer, publisher, art lover, amateur scientist and social activist who helped build hospitals, fight cruelty to animals, reform prisons, improve schools and promote better factory working conditions. It's crucial to realize, said Beltz, that for Wilberforce, all of the se causes were woven into the fabric of his life and faith. He saw no conflict between his head and his heart, between evangelism and social justice. What he opposed most of all was ''nominal," culturally compromised faith laced with apathy, "You have people who believe that if you are born in America and go to church on Sunday then that means that you are a Christian." said Beltz . ''That is precisely the altitude that William Wilberforce was fighting in the England of his day. He believed that you couldn't defeat a great evil like slavery with a weak, watereddown faith. You needed the real thing."

Students learn while helping autistic classmates CINCINNATI (AP) Siudents at a city elementary school are helping autistic classmates with their schoolwork while learning some life lessons of their own. Hoffman Elementary School in the Cincinnati Public School District has started a peer belper program designed to help autistic students. Under the program that began last fall, several seventh- and eighthgrade students from typical classrooms are brought into special enclosed classrooms where they have re~ular and consistent interacuon with autistic students and help them complete assignments. "There aren't any 'autistic classes' in the real world," said Hoffman teacher Cheryl Hilen. "My goal as a teacher ... is to help these kids be as independent as possible as adults." Autism, a complex disorder usually not diagnosed in children until after age 3, is a range of behaviors that can include difticulty expressing needs, repetitive behavior and the inabilitv to socialize. While most of the students diagnosed as autistic in the 289-school district participate in regular classes, enclosed classrooms are needed for students who fmd the larger school envi- Local stocks AlP (NYSE) - 45.14 Aklo (No"SIMQ)- 58.116 Alllland Inc.

There are other candidates as well, but these four are currently the ones to watch. You might suppose that the Repul)lican nomination, given the party ' s cttrrent problems, would be less soug ht after. but not so. It is dearly regarded as a pearl of great pric-e. and it is probably true that it might well lead on to the White House if the Democrats pick an unappealing candidate. At the moment there are three major Republican possibilities, trailed by a long list of ambitious governors and senators. and even a congressman or two. The Big Three are Sen. Jo hn McCain.

On National Review 's post-election crui .se down the coast of Mexico, 450 conservative activists mulled over. among other things, the prospects for 2008. These were not just nag-waving rednecks, but people serious and knowledgeable enough about politics to plunk down the money to spend a week discussing its finer points with the likes of Bill Buckley, Norman Podhoretz and Victor Davis Hanson. So I was interested when a panelist one day asked those in the audience who favored McCain in 2008 to raise their hands. A respectable number did. Then he called for those preferring Giuliani, and about the same number so indicated. Finally, he asked for the Romney supporters - and a huge number of hands shot up, more than the preceding demonstrators' combined . . I was astonished, because Romney in November had only just embarked on his low-key pursuit of the nomination, and wasn't nearly as · well known as either McCain or Giuliani. To be sure, his foes had not by then given liim the workingover for his supposed "flipflops " (away from relatively liberal positions on abortion, gay rights and 'gun control) that allegedly · undermined his standing with conservatives early this year. But it was still a remarkable show- ing, given the poliliCIIl sophisticalion of the audience doing the voting. Now we have the results of the straw poll taken at last week's annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Washington. This is the biggest annual event in conservative politics (6,000 attended this year), and once again it simply won't do to diminish the political know- how of the participants. Since November McCain has dimmed a bit (he was the only one of eight Republican presidential hopefuls who didn't bother to show up and speak), and Giuliani's star has risen higlier than ever in the sky. (Polls show bim leading the lield among Republican voters, and beating Hillary · if the Democrats pick her.) Moreover, Romney has by now, a~ noted above, been heavily attacked for his "flip-flops." · But lo · and behold, the straw poll at CPAC showed Romney beating bolh Giuliani and McCain! The shrewd politicians there were trying to tell the Republican Party something, and it had better listen. .

Moving into a full-time Clinic which could take more patients and bring in more revenue hasri' t been an option to date because the county has not been able to lind a dentist willing to take a full-time I?Osition. The Clime opened in the fall of 200 I after the Health Depanment received a $200,000 grant from the Appalachian Regional Conunission. That grant was renewed a second time and additional funding has been provided . by the Ohio Department of Health. Over the past six years the Clinic has closed several times because one dentist would leave and it sometimes took weeks to find another one to fill the posi· tion. There is a national shortage of dentists and sometimes the salary · <jemands are hi~her than the Appalachian Chnic can bear. Marshall said. "For now and the rest of this year we're 0. K.

" (Malachi 3-6a, AMP) And we are also laught lhal Jesu s Chrisl. who is God (See John I. I; 10.30; 14.8-9; Tilus 2.13; I Peter I. I among many other pa~sages of Scriplure) is "lhe same yeslerday and and forever." today ' (Hebrews 13.8, NASB) If God worked greal and marvelous wonders in the pasl, is there really any good reason 10 believe thai He will nol and, indeed, does not do so today? Of course nol! So, following the admonition of the Psalmisl, "give lhanks 10 lhe God of gods .. . who alone does 'greal wonders'" (See Psalm 136.1 -4) Besides, in his declaration of praise lhe Psalmist says quile pointedly, "You are lhe God who works great wonders .. . {Psalm 77. 14a, NRSV) lo whom belongs lhe glory and dominion forever and ever.

LIE: Living lhe Christian life is boring. {Another version would be lhat living a life of holiness is dull and ~1t . Rev. Jonathan Noble F\\STOR. TRINITY CHURCH ledious.) ANSWER: This lie is panicularly easy lo swallow if one buy s imo the corresponding falsehood thai sin (wickedness. impiely, debauchery, elc.) is el\ciling. Bul, of course, we are laughl that sin leads lo deal h. (See Romans 5. I 2; 6.23; James I. 15) Now, how exciling is dealh? B u1 we have "Passed from dealh lo fife " in and through Jesus Chrisl our Lord and only Saviour, (See John 5.24; I John 3.14) who fills us wilh His indescribably joy and peace. (See John 14.27; 15.11) And He "is able to do exceedingly abundanlly above all lhat we ask or lhink ... " (Ephesians 3.20, NKJV) Boring? Hardly! Tough, perhaps, but certainly nol dull. And we may "be confidenl of this, lhat the one who began a good work in (us) will bring il to complelion by lhe day of Jesus Christ." (Philippians 1.6, NRSV) So "reJoice in the Lord always: again I will say, rejoice! " (Philippians 4.4. NRSV) (By lhe way. the word "holy" can be defined as "being associaled with or derived from God; having a divine qualily, nalure and origin."

The new de· sign will debut there in the Nextel Cup race on March 25. All resignations have been set aside. Though many drivers and teams wonder privately about a need for a new car, NASCAR of· ficials have put years of devel· opment into the new cars, which have been called ugly, ungainly and generic. In fact, NASCAR officials have talked frankly about fully implementing the new dosign in 2008, a year ahead of schedule. "ll's really hard to say what the Car of Tomorrow will bring to NASCAR," said Richard Pet· ty, the sport's all-time leader with 200 victories. "It's made all of. us start all over again .... I think it's going to be good. I think it will take some of the aerodynamics away from the car, make il safer, and I don't seen anythii'lg but positives.

(AP)- Cliff Lee's lingering abdominal injury pul a damper on the Cleveland Indians' 7·6 win over lhe Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday. After Shin-Soo Choo's lwo-run sin~le in lhe ninth inning won It, manager Eric Wedge addressed the status of Lee. who has yet to pitch in a game this spring.

He said if the leftbander, expected to be the Indians' No. 3 starter after totaling 46 wins the past three years, could not lhrow a bullpen session on Sunday he would be shut down for tOto 12 days. That would put Lee in jeopardy of not being ready for the start of lhe season and open a rotation spot for Fauslo right-hander Carmona. Cleveland's No. 1 starter, C.C.

"As soon as I saw the barrel of the bat on it, I knew. It was gone." Sabathia worked so efficiently that he went to the bullpen and made 19 more pilches to get his work in. The past two years, Sabathia missed about a month at the start of lhe season with a stra,ined muscle along his side. "C.C. continues to throw all his pitches well," Wedge said. Victor Martinez hit a three-run homer in the Indians' first inning off left· bander Brian Mazone. The 30-year-old went 13-3 and led the Triple-A International league with a 2.03 ERA last summer, and is among those trying to earn a roster spot in Philadelphia. He allowed five hits and three runs over three innings. The Phillies' Chase Utley had an RBI double in the fourth and Jimmy Rollins a run-scoring single in the fifth - both off Jason Davis.

While the Wolverines 4940 win over Minnesota in the tlrst round of the Big Ten Tournament lln Thursday certainly wasn't spectacular. it gave the sixth-year coach a bit of hreathing room until Friday 's quarterlinal game against top-ranked Ohio State. Had Michioan (2 1- 11) somehow lost Thursday to the struggling Gophers (9-22). who underwent a coaching change in November and tinished the regular season with a school-record for losses. the boosters in Ann Arbor might have had plenty to discuss. The Wolverines have not reached the NCAA tournament during Amaker's tenure and were 13-18 just two· seasons ago. Now. a matchup against Big Ten Freshman of the Year Greg Oden and the Buckeyes looms. "I've been pleased that they· ve been so focused," Amaker said, refening to his team. "They're not looking at all of the things that are swirling around us and all of those other things. They're staying very focu sed on what's right in front of us."
