GALLIPOLIS - Gallia County Commissioners President David K. ·Smith recently appeared before the !27th Ohio General Assembly Local and Municipal Government and Urban Revitalization Committee to show the county's support of two House bills currently being reviewed by the committee. One of the bills authorizes boards of county commissioners to exempt from taxation residences belonging to deployed members of the U.S. Armed Forces. . "As president of the Board of Gallia County Commissioners, I am here today 'representing the ~o­ ple of Gallia County, to tell you that we offer our full support of House Bill 60," Smith told the committee. . Smith pointed out what the commissioners see as the most important aspects of bill, which are: • The bill gives each county's board of commissioners the authority to decide whether to adopt a resolution allowing the exemption. "It should be noted,' said . Smith. 'The Joss of tax revenue, if enacted, will be very a very minimal percentage of the total per county." • The bill requires the county make the determination that the economic sacrifice of · the service members necessitates Pluse see Input.

As the weather breaks, are on.ce again reminded of the problems o~r community is facing. Although our problems are many, a large number of them can be directly or indirectly related to the massive increase of "low incolne," transient, and no-income people who have moved i11to our community. It is easy enough to pass the bucli- of responsibility, but we ate all guilty .. . some more then others. We have allowed our town to be sold out. Meanwhile, the honest working man who is a fairly law-abiding citizen foots the bill. It's time to stand up for ourselves and get involved. It is the slumlords of our community who have for their own greed invited not only transients, but criminals into our midst. These people drop our property values, cost us time, energy and money to clean up after their trash, have us to pay more taxes not only to support their no-income lifestyle, but to provide more police protection. Meanwhile. the slumlords are the only ones who profit from this arrangement. It is past time for everyone to stop using the phrase "someone needs to do something." You are part of the somebody. This is a call to arms. It is time for the people to activale themselves and , take back our community. It is time for the churches to take an active role in the commu·nity and to stop turning a blind eye to congregational members who practice profiting in the. manner that slumlords do. It is time for our government officials to take charge of the situation and to act on what the people who voted them in want and to stop catering to those who devalue our town. I must say that that is in part what our country was founded on and what is called a democracy. Much like the Mexican border situation, Middleport has allowed our nice, quiet, historical town to open its floodgates to a locust of no-income, criminal and transient people, as well as slumlords who aid and abet them in housing. In the coming days ·and weeks ahead, each of us should . attempt to do more. Attend council meetings, call state officials and demand answers, request enforcement, or maybe just tell your local slumlord "we're mad as hell and we're not going to take it any more." Margaret Melcher-1aber Middleport we It's getting worse. When I say "it," I am referring to the worldwide epidemic of frogs showing up in food, which I documented recently, describing two worldwide incidents, one involving a, frog baked onto a pretzel, and the other involving a frog in a frozen .Chicken Cantonese dinner. When I say "is getting worse," I'm referring to a shocking new development that occurred recently in Orange, Calif., according to a superb story in the Orange County Register, written by Lori Basheda and sent in by many alert readers. The story states that on Nov. 5 a man named Patrick McGowan and his · family were eating· at a chain restaurant called El Tori to. ·McGowan had .ordered the No. 7 combo, ·and noticed that .the taco "was chewier than it ought to be." "So I spit it out and there was a frog," McGowan is quoted as saying. "I couldn't believe it. I bit the darrin head off." The McGowans said they asked for a manager, but nobody showed up, so Marlaina McGowan started walking around informing the other diners: "I wouldn't eat here . There's frogs in the food." i, manager then appeared, and after a "tug of war" with the McGowans, wound·up taking the frog away. · The McGowans demanded custody of the frog but the restaurant refused to surrender it. . "We want to have it checked . for · diseases," Marlaina McGowan is • Letters to the editor. are welcome. They should be jess than 300 words.

"We called our doctor and he said, 'Get the frog.'" If you know anything at all about the United States of America, then you know what happened next; namely, lawyers materialized. According to Bashed a's follow-up story, the McGowims' attorney se nt El Torito a letter stating: 'The frog pieces will be crucial evidence if this matter proceeds to litiga· tion. You are advised to maintain custody of the frog .and insure that it is not lost, altered or destroyed in any manner." · An El Torito company spokesperson told the Register: "We're not commenting on the location of the frog. It is undergoing testing. at a reputable independent lab." As of this writing, we do not know the results of the testing. But we do know that we now have docu-· mented cases of frogs showing up in three major food groups: ! ) the restaurant group, 2) the frozenfood group and 3) the pretzel group. Only an idiot would believe· this is coin cidence. This is clearly ·a case of frogs, acting in concert, infiltrating our food supply. And if you are hot alarmed about this, fhen you obviously have never had a fri end or loved one expire from a frog-t ran smitted disease. How can you, the co nsumer, protect yourself? You can be very suspicious, especially if you' re eating at a swank restaurant operated by French people, who are known to deliberately put frogs. and sometimes even snails, into food, 'then disguise them with socalled "French" names such as "escargot" (which rrieans, literally. 'They are paying to eat this! Ha ha!"). When ordering at such a res taurant, make sure you ask your waiter probing questions about the menu ("Pierre, this so-called ' fromage' -any frogs in that T'). When your food arrives, examine it closely by nashlight and do not hesitate to take precautions ("Hey; Pierre, how about you take the first bite of these socalled ' legumes."'). When preparing your own food at home, be sure to check the list of ingredients carefully-and not just for frogs. I say this because recently an alert reader name<! Gary· Osburn sent me a food product, which he purchased in Singapore. called· I am not makin g this up-"Thick Soup of Snake." The information on the Thick Soup of Snake box is printed in both Chinese and a language that is sort of, f:lut not quite, English. For example, the hox states that in addition to "snake meat. the ingredi ents include. "hot perfume" and "special doing first-class soup material.·· In an act of unselfish journalistic courage, for which I should get, at min- imum , a Nobel . Prize, I actually made Thick Soup of Snake, with the help of my son, Rob. Thi s was not easy, because the direction s (or. as the box calls them, the "Food of way") include such statements as : "A llocate the material s becoming starch shape with the a little cold water," and "you will get a pot of heavy fragrance ." I'll say we did. I do not ·believe I have ever experienced a fragrance that heavy outside of an unsl!r· viced portable toilet. "What would it take to get you to eatthis'J" I asked Rob. · "A new car," he said. But I was determined to try it. I got a spoonful of Thick Soup of Snake and brought il to my lips. "I'm go ing to throw up," · 1 told Rob. "No, you won't," he said, · helpfully. ''Just forget it:s snake." I finally ate a little bit, and so did Rob, and we agreed that-once you get past the fac t that it smells· disgusting and look,s like so n1ething . that had been swept from the floor of a stable full of very sick horses-it is truly awful. I honestly think I would pre. fer frog. . . But the point is that we' re having an epidemic, and until it 's over, you should be very careful about what you eat. You should consume only those foods that it would be difficult for reptiles or amphibians to hid~ in. Probably your safest bet is to eat nothing but M&Ms. And even then, you .should steer clear of the green one's. : &unbap m:imes -&entinel • Page As Deaths Services will be 2 p.m..

As the weather breaks, are on.ce again reminded of the problems o~r community is facing. Although our problems are many, a large number of them can be directly or indirectly related to the massive increase of "low incolne," transient, and no-income people who have moved i11to our community. It is easy enough to pass the bucli- of responsibility, but we ate all guilty .. . some more then others. We have allowed our town to be sold out. Meanwhile, the honest working man who is a fairly law-abiding citizen foots the bill. It's time to stand up for ourselves and get involved. It is the slumlords of our community who have for their own greed invited not only transients, but criminals into our midst. These people drop our property values, cost us time, energy and money to clean up after their trash, have us to pay more taxes not only to support their no-income lifestyle, but to provide more police protection. Meanwhile. the slumlords are the only ones who profit from this arrangement. It is past time for everyone to stop using the phrase "someone needs to do something." You are part of the somebody. This is a call to arms. It is time for the people to activale themselves and , take back our community. It is time for the churches to take an active role in the commu·nity and to stop turning a blind eye to congregational members who practice profiting in the. manner that slumlords do. It is time for our government officials to take charge of the situation and to act on what the people who voted them in want and to stop catering to those who devalue our town. I must say that that is in part what our country was founded on and what is called a democracy. Much like the Mexican border situation, Middleport has allowed our nice, quiet, historical town to open its floodgates to a locust of no-income, criminal and transient people, as well as slumlords who aid and abet them in housing. In the coming days ·and weeks ahead, each of us should . attempt to do more. Attend council meetings, call state officials and demand answers, request enforcement, or maybe just tell your local slumlord "we're mad as hell and we're not going to take it any more." Margaret Melcher-1aber Middleport we It's getting worse. When I say "it," I am referring to the worldwide epidemic of frogs showing up in food, which I documented recently, describing two worldwide incidents, one involving a, frog baked onto a pretzel, and the other involving a frog in a frozen .Chicken Cantonese dinner. When I say "is getting worse," I'm referring to a shocking new development that occurred recently in Orange, Calif., according to a superb story in the Orange County Register, written by Lori Basheda and sent in by many alert readers. The story states that on Nov. 5 a man named Patrick McGowan and his · family were eating· at a chain restaurant called El Tori to. ·McGowan had .ordered the No. 7 combo, ·and noticed that .the taco "was chewier than it ought to be." "So I spit it out and there was a frog," McGowan is quoted as saying. "I couldn't believe it. I bit the darrin head off." The McGowans said they asked for a manager, but nobody showed up, so Marlaina McGowan started walking around informing the other diners: "I wouldn't eat here . There's frogs in the food." i, manager then appeared, and after a "tug of war" with the McGowans, wound·up taking the frog away. · The McGowans demanded custody of the frog but the restaurant refused to surrender it. . "We want to have it checked . for · diseases," Marlaina McGowan is • Letters to the editor. are welcome. They should be jess than 300 words.

"We called our doctor and he said, 'Get the frog.'" If you know anything at all about the United States of America, then you know what happened next; namely, lawyers materialized. According to Bashed a's follow-up story, the McGowims' attorney se nt El Torito a letter stating: 'The frog pieces will be crucial evidence if this matter proceeds to litiga· tion. You are advised to maintain custody of the frog .and insure that it is not lost, altered or destroyed in any manner." · An El Torito company spokesperson told the Register: "We're not commenting on the location of the frog. It is undergoing testing. at a reputable independent lab." As of this writing, we do not know the results of the testing. But we do know that we now have docu-· mented cases of frogs showing up in three major food groups: ! ) the restaurant group, 2) the frozenfood group and 3) the pretzel group. Only an idiot would believe· this is coin cidence. This is clearly ·a case of frogs, acting in concert, infiltrating our food supply. And if you are hot alarmed about this, fhen you obviously have never had a fri end or loved one expire from a frog-t ran smitted disease. How can you, the co nsumer, protect yourself? You can be very suspicious, especially if you' re eating at a swank restaurant operated by French people, who are known to deliberately put frogs. and sometimes even snails, into food, 'then disguise them with socalled "French" names such as "escargot" (which rrieans, literally. 'They are paying to eat this! Ha ha!"). When ordering at such a res taurant, make sure you ask your waiter probing questions about the menu ("Pierre, this so-called ' fromage' -any frogs in that T'). When your food arrives, examine it closely by nashlight and do not hesitate to take precautions ("Hey; Pierre, how about you take the first bite of these socalled ' legumes."'). When preparing your own food at home, be sure to check the list of ingredients carefully-and not just for frogs. I say this because recently an alert reader name<! Gary· Osburn sent me a food product, which he purchased in Singapore. called· I am not makin g this up-"Thick Soup of Snake." The information on the Thick Soup of Snake box is printed in both Chinese and a language that is sort of, f:lut not quite, English. For example, the hox states that in addition to "snake meat. the ingredi ents include. "hot perfume" and "special doing first-class soup material.·· In an act of unselfish journalistic courage, for which I should get, at min- imum , a Nobel . Prize, I actually made Thick Soup of Snake, with the help of my son, Rob. Thi s was not easy, because the direction s (or. as the box calls them, the "Food of way") include such statements as : "A llocate the material s becoming starch shape with the a little cold water," and "you will get a pot of heavy fragrance ." I'll say we did. I do not ·believe I have ever experienced a fragrance that heavy outside of an unsl!r· viced portable toilet. "What would it take to get you to eatthis'J" I asked Rob. · "A new car," he said. But I was determined to try it. I got a spoonful of Thick Soup of Snake and brought il to my lips. "I'm go ing to throw up," · 1 told Rob. "No, you won't," he said, · helpfully. ''Just forget it:s snake." I finally ate a little bit, and so did Rob, and we agreed that-once you get past the fac t that it smells· disgusting and look,s like so n1ething . that had been swept from the floor of a stable full of very sick horses-it is truly awful. I honestly think I would pre. fer frog. . . But the point is that we' re having an epidemic, and until it 's over, you should be very careful about what you eat. You should consume only those foods that it would be difficult for reptiles or amphibians to hid~ in. Probably your safest bet is to eat nothing but M&Ms. And even then, you .should steer clear of the green one's. : &unbap m:imes -&entinel • Page As Deaths Services will be 2 p.m..

The . 53-year-old Huggins has plenty of history with the Mountaineers.iA former captain and two-time academic All-American during his 1975-1977 playing days, Huggins spent the first year of his coaching career here as a graduate assistant.

The five-year contract guarantees Huggins $800,000 the first year, matching his Kansas State salary. He'll earn about $5 million, plus incentives, over the five years, said athletic director Ed Pastilong. Huggins bad five years remaining on his contract at Kansas State and must pay the school $100,000 for breaking his contract early. Negotiations with West Virginia didn't take long, and Huggins joked that Pastilong refused to lend him reading glasses to study the' fine print: "Eddie said, 'It'll be fine, sign here."' Although he's established himself as one of the top college basketball coaches in the nation over J:he past quarter-century, Huggins is no stranger to controversy. In his 16 seasons at Cincinnati ; · he led the Bearoats to 14 consecutive NCAA tournaments and one Final Four. But critics targeted his program for low graduation rates, a series of play- er arrests and NCAA rules violations that ultimately led to probation. and a reduction in scholarships. Huggins argued the criticism over graduation rates was unfair, but noted the NCAA now does a better job of calculating those rates. Huggins has also had some health issues. He suffered a massive heart attack 'on the recruiting ,traii on Sept. 28. 2002 . A DUI arrest in 2004 ultimately led to his dismissal from Cincinnati following the 2004-05 season: He sat out the 2005-06 season but returned to the sidelines after Kansas State hired him on March 23, 2006.

But for hundreds of young people, Joe Nuxhall has been a benefactor. At age 78 and battling cancer, Nuxhall has launched a major fundraising drive for five kids-oriented nonprofit causes · in his native Butler County, just nortb of Cincinnati. Organizers are trying to raise $7.65 million for the Joe Nuxhall Hope Project Reds owner Bob Castellini , fellow announcers Marty Brennaman and Chris Welsh, and fellow former Reds Tommy Helms and Todd Benzinger were among thos~; at a kickoff dmner Thursday evening. · Nullhall was ~arful as he talked about his son Kim and their efforts to stress values to children through the Joe Nuxhall Character Education Fund, one of the five organizations that will benefit from the drive. "The total goal is to make our nation better. It doesn't start with 20-year-olds. It starts with 4- , 5-, 6- and 1· year olds," Nuxhall said. Funds are also being raised to build a gym at Fairfield 's One Way Farm for abused and abandoned children; increase awards from the Joe Nuxhall Scholarship Fund; create a rubberized Miracle League baseball, field for wheelchair-bound children, arid to start a Reds Rookie Success League for underprivileged · · youths in Butler County.

"This is going to get built, and Joe is going to walk 'in . it," she said.

"That's all he thinks about, is helping kids," said Donzetta, his wife of 59 years. Brennaman, Nux hall's partner in the booth for 31 seasons, said Nuxhall has ktipt his charitable work lowkey. "He doesn't do things and then ..pat himself on the · back and make sure everybody in captivity knows whai he's doing," Brennaman said. "He legitimately would not care if anybody ever knew about it, because he derives enough satisfaction by himself, in doing what he does." Nuxhall shrugs off such comments. "It's for the kids . It's not about me ,-" he said. "I don'\ like to blow my own horn. It's not my nature." . · He :s flattered that the One Way Farm gym will be named in his honor. But that 's not a requirement.

CLEVELAND (AP) - Swirling snow, lengthy delays, a near no-hitter, a tireless grounds crew and baseball fans bundled up for a football game. It was' a home opener unlike any in the Cleveland Indians' 107-ycar history. And, officially, it never happened. "A ,Weird day," Indians starter Paul Byrd said. A strange night, too. One strike away from putting their first home game in the books, the 1 lndians had their opener with the Seattle Mariners postponed Friday when daylong snow wouldn 't stop and the playing surface became ioo dangerous. The game was finally called after 173 minutes of stoppages, roughly the same amount of time as a regular' AL game. This one was anything but normaL · . The Indians were leading 4-0 with two . outs in the top of the fifth, when the umpires, who P.Ushed back the start by 57 minutes, halted· play for the third time. One hour and 17 minutes later, crew chief Rick Reed called the game at 8:41 p.m. - 4 hours and. 36 minutes after the scheduled first pitch -ending a bizarre· day and night when the Jacobs Field grounds crew, armed with backpack blowers, shovels and brooms to combat the snow, had sperit more time on the field than any players. "I was concerned about the players' welfare," Reed said. "Ultimately, it gets down to the players' safety." At one point during the final delay, Reed summoned Indians manageF Eric Wedge and Seattle's Mike Hargrove for a meeting. Earlier, ·the two managers had a heated onfield discussion. Reed w.anted to give the grounds crew time to clear the field again, but with more snow on the radar and the grass getting more slip~ry as the temperature dropped, he dectded eno'ugh was enough. :'~"ex plaine~ that to both manager~,'' Ree? satd. "We walled and we evaluated 1t and u wasn't safe. All parties went to the wall on this.'' The game was resche<luled for I :05 p.m. on Saturday as the opener of a day-night doubleheader that will now serve as Cleveland's opener. The clubs will also play their regularly scheduled game at 7:05 p.m. -· weather permitting. · "It's one of the oddest days most of us have ever been involved with," Wedge said. "Making his second consecutive homeopening start for Cleveland, Byrd didn't allow a hit and was perfect through four innings but walked three in the fifth .' Still, ' . the right-hander was able to get two outs and was ahead 1-2 in the count to Jose Lopez when Hargrove came out of his dugout. Known during his playing career as 'The Human Rain Delay" because of his slow ritual in the batter's box. Hargrove complained to plate umpire Alfonso Marquez that Lopez couldn't see the ball. "I did not say to call the game," Hargrove said. "I said, ' My hitter can't see."' That brought out Wedge and the two skip. pers had an animated discussion. "Eric was arguing it wasn't fair to his club because they were one strike away from an official game," Hargrove said. "I said I understood that, but it was no more fair to us if we can't see the pitch." While this was going on, Byrd tried to stay loose by throwing pitches as the snow intensified and the visibility worsened. Finally, Reed brought the Indians off the field. "Both had legitimate gripes," Reed sai,d. "Was the snow heavier at that point than at any other in the game? lt was close.

Huggins bad five years remaining on his contract at Kansas State and must pay the school $100,000 for breaking his contract early. Negotiations with West Virginia didn't take long, and Huggins joked that Pastilong refused to lend him reading glasses to study the' fine print: "Eddie said, 'It'll be fine, sign here."' Although he's established himself as one of the top college basketball coaches in the nation over J:he past quarter-century, Huggins is no stranger to controversy. In his 16 seasons at Cincinnati ; · he led the Bearoats to 14 consecutive NCAA tournaments and one Final Four. But critics targeted his program for low graduation rates, a series of play- er arrests and NCAA rules violations that ultimately led to probation. and a reduction in scholarships. Huggins argued the criticism over graduation rates was unfair, but noted the NCAA now does a better job of calculating those rates. Huggins has also had some health issues.

FAIRFIELD (AP) -· To Cincinnati Reds' fans , he's the popular "Old Left-hander," who's been part of major league baseball as a player or broadcaster over six decades. But for hundreds of young people, Joe Nuxhall has been a benefactor. At age 78 and battling cancer, Nuxhall has launched a major fundraising drive for five kids-oriented nonprofit causes · in his native Butler County, just nortb of Cincinnati. Organizers are trying to raise $7.65 million for the Joe Nuxhall Hope Project Reds owner Bob Castellini , fellow announcers Marty Brennaman and Chris Welsh, and fellow former Reds Tommy Helms and Todd Benzinger were among thos~; at a kickoff dmner Thursday evening. · Nullhall was ~arful as he talked about his son Kim and their efforts to stress values to children through the Joe Nuxhall Character Education Fund, one of the five organizations that will benefit from the drive. "The total goal is to make our nation better. It doesn't start with 20-year-olds. It starts with 4- , 5-, 6- and 1· year olds," Nuxhall said. Funds are also being raised to build a gym at Fairfield 's One Way Farm for abused and abandoned children; increase awards from the Joe Nuxhall Scholarship Fund; create a rubberized Miracle League baseball, field for wheelchair-bound children, arid to start a Reds Rookie Success League for underprivileged · · youths in Butler County. Nuxhall has· been undergoing chemotherapy, after a recurrence of cancer this year. His left leg was swollen by four tul]lors. ·He was first diagnosed with prostate cancer in February 1992. One'Way Farm founder Barbara Condo said she wants to break ground for the gym this year, before Nu'xhall has any more health problems. "This is going to get built, and Joe is going to walk 'in . it," she said. Nux hall is the youngest player. to appear in the major . leagues during the modern era, pitching in a game at age 15 for the Reds on June 10, 1944. He had 16 big league seasons and joined the.

"That's all he thinks about, is helping kids," said Donzetta, his wife of 59 years. Brennaman, Nux hall's partner in the booth for 31 seasons, said Nuxhall has ktipt his charitable work lowkey. "He doesn't do things and then ..pat himself on the · back and make sure everybody in captivity knows whai he's doing," Brennaman said. "He legitimately would not care if anybody ever knew about it, because he derives enough satisfaction by himself, in doing what he does." Nuxhall shrugs off such comments. "It's for the kids . It's not about me ,-" he said. "I don'\ like to blow my own horn. It's not my nature." . · He :s flattered that the One Way Farm gym will be named in his honor. But that 's not a requirement.

CLEVELAND (AP) - Swirling snow, lengthy delays, a near no-hitter, a tireless grounds crew and baseball fans bundled up for a football game. It was' a home opener unlike any in the Cleveland Indians' 107-ycar history. And, officially, it never happened. "A ,Weird day," Indians starter Paul Byrd said. A strange night, too. One strike away from putting their first home game in the books, the 1 lndians had their opener with the Seattle Mariners postponed Friday when daylong snow wouldn 't stop and the playing surface became ioo dangerous. The game was finally called after 173 minutes of stoppages, roughly the same amount of time as a regular' AL game. This one was anything but normaL · . The Indians were leading 4-0 with two . outs in the top of the fifth, when the umpires, who P.Ushed back the start by 57 minutes, halted· play for the third time. One hour and 17 minutes later, crew chief Rick Reed called the game at 8:41 p.m. - 4 hours and. 36 minutes after the scheduled first pitch -ending a bizarre· day and night when the Jacobs Field grounds crew, armed with backpack blowers, shovels and brooms to combat the snow, had sperit more time on the field than any players. "I was concerned about the players' welfare," Reed said. "Ultimately, it gets down to the players' safety." At one point during the final delay, Reed summoned Indians manageF Eric Wedge and Seattle's Mike Hargrove for a meeting. Earlier, ·the two managers had a heated onfield discussion. Reed w.anted to give the grounds crew time to clear the field again, but with more snow on the radar and the grass getting more slip~ry as the temperature dropped, he dectded eno'ugh was enough. :'~"ex plaine~ that to both manager~,'' Ree? satd. "We walled and we evaluated 1t and u wasn't safe. All parties went to the wall on this.'' The game was resche<luled for I :05 p.m. on Saturday as the opener of a day-night doubleheader that will now serve as Cleveland's opener. The clubs will also play their regularly scheduled game at 7:05 p.m. -· weather permitting. · "It's one of the oddest days most of us have ever been involved with," Wedge said. "Making his second consecutive homeopening start for Cleveland, Byrd didn't allow a hit and was perfect through four innings but walked three in the fifth .' Still, ' . the right-hander was able to get two outs and was ahead 1-2 in the count to Jose Lopez when Hargrove came out of his dugout. Known during his playing career as 'The Human Rain Delay" because of his slow ritual in the batter's box. Hargrove complained to plate umpire Alfonso Marquez that Lopez couldn't see the ball. "I did not say to call the game," Hargrove said. "I said, ' My hitter can't see."' That brought out Wedge and the two skip. pers had an animated discussion. "Eric was arguing it wasn't fair to his club because they were one strike away from an official game," Hargrove said. "I said I understood that, but it was no more fair to us if we can't see the pitch." While this was going on, Byrd tried to stay loose by throwing pitches as the snow intensified and the visibility worsened. Finally, Reed brought the Indians off the field. "Both had legitimate gripes," Reed sai,d. "Was the snow heavier at that point than at any other in the game? lt was close.

Home gardeners need be certified only if they market their organic products and then only if they exceed $5,000 in sales a year. Growers must submit an "organic system plan" that. has to be approved before the USDA-accredited certifiers will perform their onsite evaluations·. The plans must be updated and the growing operations and pro1 cessing facilities inspected annually. Those who pass muster are then certified by the agent and are allowed to use symbols or certifi~ates in selling or describing their produce as orgamc. T~e agent, in effect, has tned to ensure hat the grower ts presenting the 're~l , uncontaminated goods. "A certified farmer has about 60 pages of rules, depending upon the (certifying) agency, that they have to follow," said Jessica Walliser, co-author of "Grow Organic; Over 250 Tips and Ideas for Growing . Flowers, Lawns and More." "That can vary from taking the temperature of their compost for a couple of weeks to ensure it reaches 160 degrees (among otker things, to kill weed se~ds) to ensuring their baskets haven't been treated with any insecticides. · · "Those (rules) would be real difficult for home gardeners to follow," she said. "If people get certified, it's because they want to sell something. If you make more than $5,000 a year, you have to be certified." ' Even a certified program, however, can have its problems. . · . "Organic certification is not a guaranty of quality or purity of the product," according to a fact sheet from. the Organic Trade Ass<;~ciation. "Rather, it is evidence of the operation's adherence to a prescribeq system of agriculture and food production .that involves the building and enhancing of the soil naturally, protection of the environment, humane treatment of animals and avoidance of toxic synthetic substances." · Certification costs vary according to the size of the growing operation and fees assessed by the organic certifying agencies.· For small fanns, however, f~es range from $100 to $1,200; for large fl!fllls, from $200 to more than $12,000. · . · G More iriformation on organic certification standards and procedures is available on this Organic Trade Association site: http://ww~wta.r:om/organ­ ic.faq.html.

The Ohio Department of Natural Re sources expects a harvest of 20 ,000 to 25 ,000 gobblers during the season, according to Wildlife biologist. Dave Swanson. Hunters harvested 20,023 wild turkeys during last year's spring season. Swanson add ed tha t Ohio's current wild turkey population is around 200,000. He anticipates as many as 85 ,000 people , not counting private landowners hunting on their own property, will enjoy Ohio's increasingly popular spring wi ld tu rkey season. A specia l youth-only turkey hunt for those age 17 and younger will be held Apri I 2 I and 22'.

Young also informed residents she,d been in contact with Athens attorney Joe Hazelbaker who's agreed to consider representing clients in Meigs County involved in disputes over coal rights. Those with their coal rights on their deed though the permit lists Gatling as the owner of the coal rights can call Young at416-2694. For those without this information on their deed, Bill Price, attorney with the Sierra Club Environmental Justice Program .for Central Appalachia advised residents to go back in the chain of title to trace the coal rights, though this can sometimes be a daunting task. Still, Rice and Young advised residents who · questioned Gatling's claim to their coal rights to put it in writing to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) by the end of the official comment period on the permit which is Brtan J.

Although ODNR does not get involved in disputes over coal rights, it 's both Young and Price's contention that if a resident is saying they own the coal rights while Gatling is saying they own the coal rights to the same piece of property. something is therefore wrong with the mining permit. "This isn, t a property dispute. we,re not suing them, we.re saying their application is not right," Rice told residents about putting their concerns over coal rights in writing to ODNR. Albert Proffitt of Yellowbush Road said he was approached by ,a persmi representing Gatling last year in regards to purchasing some of his properly.
