Corps urges water safety this weekend ~"Pirates ofth: Caribbean:jt.hiWor:d'sdEnd.~p· ovte ·reVIew: r I 1rates • IS ' too I . I Bv CHRISTY LEMIRE AP MOVIE CRITIC It's way too long and massively convoluted and ulti- mately just plain silly. But still, "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" is a lot of fun a lot of the time. The third movie in the. freakishly successful "Pirates" franchise feels substantial · and looks impressive. and fulfills the hype surrounding it in a way the other thirds - ·Spidey and Shrek - haven't so far. Having said that, -it is, _o f course, a giant meandering mess that leaves you feeling as if you've been tossed about on. the high seas for three hours, but theoretically that's also part of the allure of these movies. Director Gore Verbinski and writers Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio · return with even bigger help-' ings of special effects, including an interminable climax · in which the Black Pearl and the Flying Dutchman battle each other in the driving rain while circling along the edge of a swirling, sucking maelstrom. · And yet, within · such sequences, there are enough individual "wow" moments that make you appreciate just how inventive and complicated an achievement this was. Stuff gets blown up (this is a Jerry Bruckheimer production, qfter all) and it looks like real stuff really getting blown up , not just digitaJ blips that have been . manipulated by hundreds of people sitting in the dark in front of computer screens. . Though CGI technology clearly was used often, ."At World's End" never appears fakey-cartoony, liks so many of these epics often do. For better and · for worse, the latest "Pirates of the Caribbean" actually resembles the Disney amusement park ride that inspired the series more than its predecessors (with traces of the "It's a Small World" ride thrown in for good measure), especially when characters are cruising through some waterway, singing some rousing yo-ho song. You're constantly aware that what you're watching is a manufactured vision of what heroes ·and ruffians are supposed to do and say, and yet the kid in you wants to give in, then go for a $5 cotton candy afterward. · As for the plot - not that it ever matters - this one's more confusing than ever. Will Turner (Orlando Bloom), Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) and Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush) must rescue Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) from the purgatory of Davy Jones ' Locker, . where he wound up last year at the end of "Dead .Man's Chest." They also must round up the Nine Lords of the Brethren Court, sort of a U.N. ofunsavory behavior, in the hopes that their combined power can stop the. Machiavellian Lord Cutler Beckett (Tom Hollander), head of the East India Co., from ridding the world of pirates. · All of these people end up double-crossing one another at some point - switching d ong an convoluted . but visually impressive and HUNTINGTON, W.Va.

AND MARCY SUGAR Dear Annie: I' m a 51/ year-old male and answered a personal ad posted by "Ginny," an older woman. I am attracted to older women for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is that they don't want more kids or have young children at home. · ' Ginny looked to be in her late 60s, and ~he told me she · was 67. She invited me to her home, and we had our own little happy hour. The sex was great. We have seen each other several times, but after the most recent visit, I caught a glimpse of her driver's license, which said she was born in 1927. Ginny will be 80 in June. Why do you think she lied to me? I never would have thought she was . that old and, frankly, the novelty of it appeals to me. I'm just not sure about the social ramifications. My mother is five years younger than Ginny. I have a 24-year-old daughter, and I don't know how she will react. I told Ginny we should get married on her 80th birthday, but she thinks I should find someone closer to my own age. Should I continue seeing her and just not let the relationship get too emotional? Or should I marry her? She's a terrific woman . and in wonderful shape. Marc from Memphis Dear Marc: Why must it he one or the other? Marriage does not have to be the end result of every good relationship. Ginny probably lied because she assumed your attraction to older women might not encompass quite that great an age difference, but now she knows better. We say enjoy what you have, including the emotional involvement, and don't push for more than . she's willing to give .. Dear Annie: I am the mother of six children, ages 5 months tp 14 years. The problem is, I am constantly terrified that something is going to happen to one of them. If I go out, I call the baby-sitter every half-hour. Sometimes I go over to their school and peek in the classrooms. Often, I' II pick them up from school because the bus ride makes me nervous. When they play outside, I check on them every five minutes. I won't let them go anywhere without me, even with their father, because I am afraid he will not watch them closely enough. I am · driving everyone cra~y. including myself. What should I dory - Worried All the Time · Dear Worried: You've been doing this for 14 years? You must be exhausted. With the news today. we certain! y understand your. anxiety, but it isn't helpful. Calling the baby-sitter or periodically checking when the kids are outside is within normal concerns, but peeking in their classrooms? Not so much. You must accept the reality that there are things even horrible, tragic things - that you cannot control or prevent. Life contains risk. You can take appropri' ate precautions and teach your children to be careful, but you should not be so overbearing that it is impossible for them to feel safe and develop independence.

The stude nt, who lived off-campus · and was enrolled in the aviation program. was banned from school property while university police investigated. It was difficult to bring charges, despite some wit- ness corroboration, because some of the threatening behaviors dated back. to 2003 and the two-year statute of limitations had expired, said university President Roderick McDavis. The student also was accused of unsafe flying , assault and threatening · other students and university staff After being suspended May 3, he gave police hollow-point bullets, an assault rifl e and a .380-caliber pistol to uni- . versity police. "Our Investigation· confirms that ihe president was justified in asking for a deeper investigation of this individual's behavior," Ohio University police chief Michael Martinsen said. The university is ·still con-. sidering internal discipli· nary action against the stu-. dent, who remains suspendr ed. It also is looking administrators' response and whether action should have. been taken earlier. ATHENS - O'Bieness Memorial Hospital was recognized by the Ohio Hospital Association (OHA) for being among the top 20 percent of 88 Ohio hospitals with the lowest injury ra(es in 2007. F;or 54 years, the OHA Statewide Hospital Safety Campaign has recognized successful hospital safety programs and superior employee safety records. The OHA and the Industrial Commission of Ohio created the safety awards to promote workplace safety. This year, the participat- ing hospitals were placed into groups based on num: ber of employees. In each. category the hospital with the lowest injury rate was honored. Also awarded were those hospitals in the top 20 perce nt , which includes O'Bieness.

AND MARCY SUGAR Dear Annie: I' m a 51/ year-old male and answered a personal ad posted by "Ginny," an older woman. I am attracted to older women for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is that they don't want more kids or have young children at home. · ' Ginny looked to be in her late 60s, and ~he told me she · was 67. She invited me to her home, and we had our own little happy hour. The sex was great. We have seen each other several times, but after the most recent visit, I caught a glimpse of her driver's license, which said she was born in 1927. Ginny will be 80 in June. Why do you think she lied to me? I never would have thought she was . that old and, frankly, the novelty of it appeals to me. I'm just not sure about the social ramifications. My mother is five years younger than Ginny. I have a 24-year-old daughter, and I don't know how she will react. I told Ginny we should get married on her 80th birthday, but she thinks I should find someone closer to my own age. Should I continue seeing her and just not let the relationship get too emotional? Or should I marry her? She's a terrific woman . and in wonderful shape. Marc from Memphis Dear Marc: Why must it he one or the other? Marriage does not have to be the end result of every good relationship. Ginny probably lied because she assumed your attraction to older women might not encompass quite that great an age difference, but now she knows better. We say enjoy what you have, including the emotional involvement, and don't push for more than . she's willing to give .. Dear Annie: I am the mother of six children, ages 5 months tp 14 years. The problem is, I am constantly terrified that something is going to happen to one of them. If I go out, I call the baby-sitter every half-hour. Sometimes I go over to their school and peek in the classrooms. Often, I' II pick them up from school because the bus ride makes me nervous. When they play outside, I check on them every five minutes. I won't let them go anywhere without me, even with their father, because I am afraid he will not watch them closely enough. I am · driving everyone cra~y. including myself. What should I dory - Worried All the Time · Dear Worried: You've been doing this for 14 years? You must be exhausted. With the news today. we certain! y understand your. anxiety, but it isn't helpful. Calling the baby-sitter or periodically checking when the kids are outside is within normal concerns, but peeking in their classrooms? Not so much. You must accept the reality that there are things even horrible, tragic things - that you cannot control or prevent. Life contains risk. You can take appropri' ate precautions and teach your children to be careful, but you should not be so overbearing that it is impossible for them to feel safe and develop independence. If you cannot dial it down a few notches, we urge you to spei!k to your doctor. You need a time-out.

Mich. - Shooting or passing, LeBron James is having a hard time beating the Detroit Pistons. JamfS missed a shot with 7.9 seconds left, allowing Detroit to escape again with a 79-76 'victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday night and a 2-0 lead in the Eastern Conference finals. On the previous possession, Rasheed Wallace made a fadeaway jumper on the baseline over James to put Detroit ahead. James, who p11ssed up a shot in the final seconds of the series opener, dribbled into the lane and missed a spinning shot in the lane with Richard Hamilton draped on him . .

The more you weigh, the more stress on joints, especially hips, knees, back and feet. 2. Move your body. Exercise p~otects joints by strengthening the muscles around them . Strong muscles keep your joints from rubbing against one another and wearing down cartilage. 3. Stand up straight. Good posture protects the joints in your neck, back, hips and knees. 4, Use the big joints. When lifting or carrying, use the largest and strongest joints and muscles. This will help avoid injury and strain on smaller joints. 5. Pace yourself. Alternate periods of heavy activity with periods of rest. Repetitive stress on joints for long periods of time can accelerate wear and tear. · 6. Listen to your body. If you are in pain, don't ignore it. Pain after activity or exercise can be an indication that you have overstressed joints. 7. Don't be static. Changing positions regularly will decrease the stiffness in mus-. · cles and joints. 8. Forget the weekend warrior. Don't engage in activities for which the body isn't prepared . Start new activities slowly ·and safely until you know how your body will react to them. This will reduce the chance of injury. 9. Wear proper safety equipment. Don't leave helmets and to skyrocket as the population ages. hi addition to causing pain, disability, and loss .of mdependence, arthritis causes a grea~ financial toll on the country.

In addition to the restrictions established by the new .act, HCHS and Holzer Clinic will ban cigarette smoking and tobacco use on all property owned by both entities, including not only inside, but outside as well.

While the dangers of heart disease and stroke (the third leading cause of death among Americans) are common knowledge, many might not know that early recognition of ·symptoms can make the difference between life or death. How quicklx a person responds to symptoms of neart attack, stroke ot' cardiac arrest can also determine how much of a sufferer's life can be recovered .

However, if given within three hours of the onset of symptoms, a · clot-busting drug can . reduce longterm disability for the mos~ common type of stroke. With that in mind, the following is a list of warning signs for heart attack, stroke and cardiac arrest.

Oftentimes, feel ings of uncomfortable pressure, fullness, or squeezing characterize chest pain associated with heart attack. • Shortness of breath. This can occur both with or without chest pain, so don't assume that shortness of breath, when unaccompanied by other symptoms, is som~thi ng to brush aside. • Upper body discomfort. Pain can be felt In one or both arms, the neck, Jhe back, the jaw, or even the stomach. Stroke A quick response to stroke is especially important, as the longer it takes to recogni ze and respond to a stroke, the greater the risk of paralysis and loss of some brain function . Unlike some diseases of the heart, stroke symptoms are often characterized by the sudden ness of their nature . Common indicators, according to the American Stroke Association, include: • Sudden numbness or weakness: This will affect the face, arm or leg, and will do so on one side of the body. . • Sudden confusion: Stroke sufferers will suddenly become confused , and may have trouble speaking or understanding what is happening. • Difficulties with vision: Again, this.will be sudden, and can affect one or both eyes. • Difficulty staying upright: Sudden ·Please see Time, 19 �Page 12 Healthcare Edition Friday, May 24, 2007 Friday, May 24, 2007 ·Good sun safety.habits are key to enjOying summer Summertime brings the joy of outdoors, the excitement of vacation and a long break from school, and lots and lots of sun.

When HPV does affect the body, it is usuaJiy in the form of warts on the hands, feet or genitals. . Types of HPV are broken down -into two categories: low and high risk. Low risk include approximately 12 types that can .cause _genital warts or slight ceUular changes. They're known as low-risk because they can't cause cervical cancer. ·High risk types, of which there are dozens, can cause abnormal ceJJ changes in the cervix, called dysplasia orCIN (the abbreviation for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia). These changes may gradually develop into cervical cancer if not treated. Even m high-risk cases, many times the body's immune system suppresses the virus before. any harm can be done. The CDC estimates that 70 percent of new HPV infections (including those that are "high risk") go away within one year, and 91 percent are gone within two years.

It's hard not to have, considering the influx of commercials urging women to talk to their doctors about this . series of viruses. Should you panic and dial the phone immediately for an appointment? Probably not. However, knowing ·about HPV can· be beneficial . What is HPV?. The hype around human papiloma virus (HPV) would leave one to believe that it is a new disease that just arrived in this country on the coattails of the avian flu . On the contrary, . HPV is a,.common virus that most people get at one point during their lives. The Centers . for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that as many as 80 percent of womeri will get a ·genital type of HPV by the age of 50. There are more than I00 types of HPV that typically affect the skin. Usually, HPV causes no · problems and the body naturaJiy suppresses the virus. When HPV does affect the body, it is usuaJiy in the form of warts on the hands, feet or genitals. . Types of HPV are broken down -into two categories: low and high risk. Low risk include approximately 12 types that can .cause _genital warts or slight ceUular changes. They're known as low-risk because they can't cause cervical cancer. ·High risk types, of which there are dozens, can cause abnormal ceJJ changes in the cervix, called dysplasia orCIN (the abbreviation for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia). These changes may gradually develop into cervical cancer if not treated. Even m high-risk cases, many times the body's immune system suppresses the virus before. any harm can be done. The CDC estimates that 70 percent of new HPV infections (including those that are "high risk") go away within one year, and 91 percent are gone within two years. However, wheft the . virus remains active, doctors from Page 15 have reason for concern for cancer. How is HPV 5.

Pag~ 21 • New natural secrets for women to feel younger Digestion (MS) - Women are continuaJJy seeking ways to look and feel younger. In fact, antiaging products are a billiondollar industry. While age spot and ~rinkle treatments do have merit, some women may fail to address the antiaging issues for their bladder incontinence. Womeri and even health profess ionals are not aware of how common a problem urinary incontinence can be. Women Of all ages experience incontinence, ranging from slight leakage to larger accidents, due to a variety of reasons. These include side effects from medications, childbirth, surgery such as a hysterectomy, or the normal progress of aging. Research by National Family Opinion in August 200 l suggests that involuntary urine loss affects at least 16 million American women, and the incidence increases dramatically as women age. There are three major types of bladder control issues: ( I) leakage of smaU amounts of urine while you sneeze, cough or exercise;. (2) leakage of large amounts of urine while you feel a sudden urge to urinate; and (3) frequent urination . Many women · have mixed types of bladder control issues . These issues mostly happen to menopausal and post-menopausal women, but they can also occur in younger women after multiple childbirths . Hormone chan.ges and the birthing process may · weaken the tone and strength of the muscle systems that control the bladder functions. For so me , the condition doesn't seem lik~ a big probtern . It's just a "natural sign of ag ing," what happens when "I laugh too hard," or it's just because "I have a small bladder." But for many, urinary incontinence can be a debilitating co nd ition.. one that leaves them embarrassed or at the most extreme, . homebound. As one may imagine, this can have impact on the quality of life beyond just some annoyance. It can cause sleep deprivation from rising to visit.the bathroom frequently at night, impact employment, impact intimacy, limit active lifestyles, or l.ead to depression . In fact, 50 percent of women have to live in a nursi ng home because of incontinence. Jennifer's story is one of the typical cases told by ~~men in their 50s to 60s: "I am 59. My bladder started to bother me about 5 years ago. In the morning, when I drink a cup of coffee, I have to use the bathroom every 15 minutes afterward. At night, this problem disturbs my rest - I need to get up four or five times. I , know every bathroom location in my neighborhood. You can bet l avoid long car trips at all costs .. I waited and wished· the probl~m could go away. But . the reality is it is getting worse every year." . In seeking a sol ution and preferring to steer clear of prescription drugs or more invasive treatments like potential surgery, Jennifer disco:vered the Health and Healing Ne.wsletter from . . Julian Whitaker, M.D, recommending BetterWOMAN, a proprietary formula made of 20 natural Chinese herbs. It is the first clinically tested natural supplement shown effective in improving female bladder control. In a recent study of forty-five American women , aged 34 to 74, the majority of women reported noticeab le improvemeilts after just 3 botties (2 mon ths) of BetterWOMAN . Some women even started to notice improvements within 10 days . . " I have. been tak ing BetterWOMAN six months now. 1 sleep much, much better. 1 no longer worry when 1 sneeze or laugh .

Pag~ 21 • New natural secrets for women to feel younger Digestion (MS) - Women are continuaJJy seeking ways to look and feel younger. In fact, antiaging products are a billiondollar industry. While age spot and ~rinkle treatments do have merit, some women may fail to address the antiaging issues for their bladder incontinence. Womeri and even health profess ionals are not aware of how common a problem urinary incontinence can be. Women Of all ages experience incontinence, ranging from slight leakage to larger accidents, due to a variety of reasons. These include side effects from medications, childbirth, surgery such as a hysterectomy, or the normal progress of aging. Research by National Family Opinion in August 200 l suggests that involuntary urine loss affects at least 16 million American women, and the incidence increases dramatically as women age. There are three major types of bladder control issues: ( I) leakage of smaU amounts of urine while you sneeze, cough or exercise;. (2) leakage of large amounts of urine while you feel a sudden urge to urinate; and (3) frequent urination . Many women · have mixed types of bladder control issues . These issues mostly happen to menopausal and post-menopausal women, but they can also occur in younger women after multiple childbirths . Hormone chan.ges and the birthing process may · weaken the tone and strength of the muscle systems that control the bladder functions. For so me , the condition doesn't seem lik~ a big probtern . It's just a "natural sign of ag ing," what happens when "I laugh too hard," or it's just because "I have a small bladder." But for many, urinary incontinence can be a debilitating co nd ition.. one that leaves them embarrassed or at the most extreme, . homebound. As one may imagine, this can have impact on the quality of life beyond just some annoyance. It can cause sleep deprivation from rising to visit.the bathroom frequently at night, impact employment, impact intimacy, limit active lifestyles, or l.ead to depression . In fact, 50 percent of women have to live in a nursi ng home because of incontinence. Jennifer's story is one of the typical cases told by ~~men in their 50s to 60s: "I am 59. My bladder started to bother me about 5 years ago. In the morning, when I drink a cup of coffee, I have to use the bathroom every 15 minutes afterward. At night, this problem disturbs my rest - I need to get up four or five times. I , know every bathroom location in my neighborhood. You can bet l avoid long car trips at all costs .. I waited and wished· the probl~m could go away. But . the reality is it is getting worse every year." . In seeking a sol ution and preferring to steer clear of prescription drugs or more invasive treatments like potential surgery, Jennifer disco:vered the Health and Healing Ne.wsletter from . . Julian Whitaker, M.D, recommending BetterWOMAN, a proprietary formula made of 20 natural Chinese herbs. It is the first clinically tested natural supplement shown effective in improving female bladder control. In a recent study of forty-five American women , aged 34 to 74, the majority of women reported noticeab le improvemeilts after just 3 botties (2 mon ths) of BetterWOMAN . Some women even started to notice improvements within 10 days . . " I have. been tak ing BetterWOMAN six months now. 1 sleep much, much better. 1 no longer worry when 1 sneeze or laugh .

Your audiologist can then recommend a course of action for you. If hearing aids are recommended, she will help you choose the hearing aids that are best suited for your hearing 'loss.
