By Monte Dutton NASCAR This Week CONCORD, N.C. -Ricky Rudd's grand comeback has, so far, failed to live up to expectations, but a seventhplace finish in the Coca-Cola 600 did· n't hurt. Rudd came aliout as close as a person can come to retiring without actually using the word emphatically. With one brief exception -:- he served as a relief driver for the injured Tony Stewart at Dover - he sat out the 2006 season. This year Rudd returned. He didn't know how much racing meant to him until he walked away. At age SO, Rudd returned this year to drive the No. 88 Snickers Ford for · Robert Yates, an . owner with whom he had worked before. Sure, there have IS In been promising moments. Rudd ·star'ted on the front row at the Daytona 500, for instance, but liy and large, he has been unable to return his once· prominent team to its former level of prestige. Robert Yates Racing fell on hard times. in Rudd's absence, and it's still playing catch-up.' · Before the Coca-Cola 600, Rudd said he finally thought tangible progress was being made. "The other night in the all-star race (Nextel Open), we had one car that was really good and one that was OK, and this was the better car," said Rudd. "Juijtlike everybody else, we brouglit our best car' for the 600, but the team has been steadily working. "They've been to the wind tunnel and have been putting bodies on, and working on the chassis, and this is the first time that we've seen some really positive results that aren't going to be a flash in the pan. I feel like it's got a lot of staying power.

REGIONAL iunba, lim~ -itnttntl Sunday, June 3, 2001. ~ ANNIE'S Judge: State can't close foster. agency that placed murdered child Bv MAn REED ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER COLUMBUS - The state can't shut down an agency that matched a 3-year-old boy with foste r parents who killed him by leaving him bound in closet because it has not proven that children the agency places are i~ danger, a judge ruled Friday. Attorney General Marc Dann filed a laws uit last month seeking to bar New Carlisle-based Lifeway for Youth Inc. from plac ing children in foster homes. It also asked the coun to order Lifeway 's current fos ter families transferred to other child care agencies. But the state failed to prese nt enough evidence to suppon its argument that children placed by Lifeway were in danger, Franklin · County Common Pleas Judge Richard Sheward said in his ruling. · "Nowhere in the petition nor in any of its exhibits does the department offer any specific evidence of any particular child at risk of imminent harm to his or her life, health or safe ty," Sheward wrote. The state appealled Friday afternoon and immedi ately received a stay from the I Oth Ohio Di strict Coun of Appeals in the CQiumbus, said Dennis Evans, a spokesman fo r the Ohi o Department of Job and Family Services. The stay means an administrati ve hearing to revoke Lifeway's license, scheduled months ago to take place ·Monday at the department, can go forward, Evans said. But Sheward wrote in his ruling that the department gave up jurisdiction - and its right to hold the administrative hearing - when Dann filed the lawsuit on behalf of the department. . "We' re ready to proceed anyway. We've been ready for months," Lifeway attorney _Melissa Mitchell said Friday. "But frankly, we think it's a waste of time, given the judge's decision." The department has said it cited Lifeway with about 55 rule violations after conduQI- . from Page A1 "We are all born to shine," co-valedictorian Elaine Householder said. "It's not only in some people. it's in all of us." Co-valedictorian Lauren Farley commented on the encourageme'nt she received from her class mates and teachers which propelled her to her own academic advances, "Success is whatever you do to fulfill your fantasy," she said. "The choice is yours. I hope you all will achieve your definition of success." For co-valedictorian Laura Kline, the future may be exciting to behold, but she advised the class to cherish, its days at RYHS. "Don't throw your memories into a closet and forget them," she said. "Take some time to open the closet door and remember." Salutatorian Andrea Russell reflected on how years of work came down to this moment of time when individual educational achievement is celebnited. "You work for years to prepare your kids for this night, and you wouldn 't mi ss it for anything," Russell told the audience. "We all need to remember, what a night." · For teacher Jane Ann Slagle. retiring after a 35year career, the ceremony was bittersweet, yet exhilirating because of her enthusiasm for the class and ikts future.

Attorney General Marc Dann filed a laws uit last month seeking to bar New Carlisle-based Lifeway for Youth Inc. from plac ing children in foster homes. It also asked the coun to order Lifeway 's current fos ter families transferred to other child care agencies. But the state failed to prese nt enough evidence to suppon its argument that children placed by Lifeway were in danger, Franklin · County Common Pleas Judge Richard Sheward said in his ruling. · "Nowhere in the petition nor in any of its exhibits does the department offer any specific evidence of any particular child at risk of imminent harm to his or her life, health or safe ty," Sheward wrote. The state appealled Friday afternoon and immedi ately received a stay from the I Oth Ohio Di strict Coun of Appeals in the CQiumbus, said Dennis Evans, a spokesman fo r the Ohi o Department of Job and Family Services. The stay means an administrati ve hearing to revoke Lifeway's license, scheduled months ago to take place ·Monday at the department, can go forward, Evans said. But Sheward wrote in his ruling that the department gave up jurisdiction - and its right to hold the administrative hearing - when Dann filed the lawsuit on behalf of the department. .

PageA6 OHIO Bv CHARLENE HoEl'llcH POMEROY - Appro'Val to enter into a contract with the Limbach Co. for an energy efficiency program for Meigs Local Schools at a cost of $900,000 has been approved by the Meigs Local Board of Education. The board approved the Integrated Delivery agreement with Limbach, contingent upon certain "revised and amended portions" to satisfy the district's concerns. Also approved was a resolution providing for the issuance and sale of school energy conservation improvement bonds in the maximum principal amount of $900,000 for the purpose of the energy conservation measures. A resolution was also approved declaring that "competitive bidding does not' apply to certain energy conservation measures for energy conservation work related to district-wide energy conservation measures." Engineers of Sabo/Limbach of Columbus met with the board several weeks ago to present a detailed description of action required to reduce utility ~osts. An auditing of the energy costs for the district had been completed prior to that time and it had been determined that certain things could be done to make the three school buildings more energy efficient. The proposal presented by Sabo/Limbach at that time indicated that through certain energy savings projects, annual savings in energy costs would be $132,218, resulting in a payback for the services of · the Sabo/Lombach in 6.8 years after which the district would be ahead in reduced energy costs each year by that amount. The savings foreseen by the engineers was based on the 2005-06 rates and repre- · sent reductions of 10 percent iri current electricity use and 45 percent of gas usage. Financial forecast Mark Rhonemus, treasur- er, at a meeting last week, presented a revised five-year forecast for fiscal year 2007 for submission to the Ohio Department of Education. An earlier forecast predicted the district would move into an operaiional deficit in 2009, while the revised forecast show ~ the district having a fund balance of $175,49 1 in 2011 with no prior deficits showing in the years before then. The treasurer attributed the change in outlook to an increase of about 45 students with each one bringing in more money frol]l the state, a 2.2 percent state support increase, along with increased cash receipts from other sources, and takes·into con~ideration the projected savings in energy once ·the conservation project has been completed. It does not take · into account · any employee . pay increases, Rhonemus said. Other business Mark Homas, technology coordinator, was .present at the board meetin\l to again discuss the possibtlity of the district becoming its own email provider. He explained the process, how it will change the way communications are handled and the advantages of making the change. In other business, a donation of $500 to the Mei~s Local General Scholarshtp Fund was accepted from the Tri-County Vending Co., the superintendent was authorized to hire temporary summer workers need·ed to do custodial work, and a pay increase for substitute teachers of $65 per day was put into effect for the next school year. The board also approved an overnight field trip request for the Meigs Middle and Intermediate schools' archery teams to attend the National Championship Competition n Louisville, Ky., on June 8-10.

PageA6 OHIO Bv CHARLENE HoEl'llcH POMEROY - Appro'Val to enter into a contract with the Limbach Co. for an energy efficiency program for Meigs Local Schools at a cost of $900,000 has been approved by the Meigs Local Board of Education. The board approved the Integrated Delivery agreement with Limbach, contingent upon certain "revised and amended portions" to satisfy the district's concerns. Also approved was a resolution providing for the issuance and sale of school energy conservation improvement bonds in the maximum principal amount of $900,000 for the purpose of the energy conservation measures. A resolution was also approved declaring that "competitive bidding does not' apply to certain energy conservation measures for energy conservation work related to district-wide energy conservation measures." Engineers of Sabo/Limbach of Columbus met with the board several weeks ago to present a detailed description of action required to reduce utility ~osts. An auditing of the energy costs for the district had been completed prior to that time and it had been determined that certain things could be done to make the three school buildings more energy efficient. The proposal presented by Sabo/Limbach at that time indicated that through certain energy savings projects, annual savings in energy costs would be $132,218, resulting in a payback for the services of · the Sabo/Lombach in 6.8 years after which the district would be ahead in reduced energy costs each year by that amount. The savings foreseen by the engineers was based on the 2005-06 rates and repre- · sent reductions of 10 percent iri current electricity use and 45 percent of gas usage. Financial forecast Mark Rhonemus, treasur- er, at a meeting last week, presented a revised five-year forecast for fiscal year 2007 for submission to the Ohio Department of Education. An earlier forecast predicted the district would move into an operaiional deficit in 2009, while the revised forecast show ~ the district having a fund balance of $175,49 1 in 2011 with no prior deficits showing in the years before then. The treasurer attributed the change in outlook to an increase of about 45 students with each one bringing in more money frol]l the state, a 2.2 percent state support increase, along with increased cash receipts from other sources, and takes·into con~ideration the projected savings in energy once ·the conservation project has been completed. It does not take · into account · any employee . pay increases, Rhonemus said. Other business Mark Homas, technology coordinator, was .present at the board meetin\l to again discuss the possibtlity of the district becoming its own email provider. He explained the process, how it will change the way communications are handled and the advantages of making the change. In other business, a donation of $500 to the Mei~s Local General Scholarshtp Fund was accepted from the Tri-County Vending Co., the superintendent was authorized to hire temporary summer workers need·ed to do custodial work, and a pay increase for substitute teachers of $65 per day was put into effect for the next school year. The board also approved an overnight field trip request for the Meigs Middle and Intermediate schools' archery teams to attend the National Championship Competition n Louisville, Ky., on June 8-10.

I : DUBLIN - Adam Scott was frustrated by hitting good shots and signing for mediocre scores. After a spirited chat with his caddie, ooth were determined to ~queeze everything they could out of the second round at the Memorial. : Scott flirted with perfection Friday at Muirfield Village, missing four putts inside 12 feet and still shooting a 10-under 62. : It gave him a one-shot lead 0ver Rod Pampling, and lie hopes 1.t Will be enough to shake off the golf gremlins that have been holding. him back since his victory in Houston two months ago. : "We just told each other what we thought about \\'hat's going on out there, a bit of a heart-to-heart, t>ecause we knew 1 was close tp playing really well," Scott said of his talk with Tony Navarro. "Our idea was to come out and be focused, ljlld neither of us make a mistake." · : He made one, bitting a heavy 7-iron that tumbled 0ff the front of the green and into the bunker on the par-3 16th, and his 12-foot par putt rippled over the edge. He followed that with a 20-footer on the I 7th for his 11th birdie of the round. : Scott was at 12-under 132, one shot ahead of Pampling, who played bogey-free for a 68. Bubba Watson had a chance to tie for the lead until he went long on the 18th for a bogey for a 68, leaving him at a 10-under 134 with another Aussie, Aaron Baddeley (68). : It was another day of good scoring conditions, with sti~ing heat, mild breezes, fairways with plenty of roll and greens that held approach shots and rolled smoothly. That wasn't the case for Tiger Woods. · The three-time Memorial champion hit the ball decently enough, but couldn't make anything outside 6 feet until he rolled in a 10-foot birdie on the final hole for a 72, leaving him 10 shots behind. "You look at a Jot of guys up there, they're makin~ a bunch of. putts, and not JUSt from 6, 7, 8 feet. They're making them from 20 feet," Woods said. "I just haven't done that." · · Scott didn't really need to. He hit the ball so pure that except for hitting into the bunker on tile 16th and going into the first cut of rough beyond the 18th green, he had only one putt longer than 15 feet Jim Furyk .nuticed the 62 on the board before he teed . off, but what really got his attention were the other low scores from the morning group of players - some were · pretty good, but nowhere close to what Scott did. · Scott's round was one shot off the course record - John Huston had a 61 in 1996 but even more impressive was that the next lowest score on the day was 67. · "That round was really good because it separated himself," Furyk said after his 69. "That's how I judge a low round. Someone might shoot 63, and you'll see a couple of 64s and a couple of 65s. But when the next best round is a 67 ... that's a darn good round.'.' . · It was so good that Scott twice had reason to think about a 59. · After going out in 30 to move into a tie for the lead, he birdied the next three holes to reach 9 under through 12 holes, then hit his approach to 5 feet on the 13th. Anothet birdie would have put him at 10 under for the round, needing only ' three birdies over the final ·five holes to hit golf's magic number. "The way thin~s were going, it was realistic with a par 5 in there," Scott said. The slick putt slid by on the right, and Scott returned his focus to the next shot. He e,scaped with par on a good two-putt from 40 feet on the 14th, then hit his best shot of the day. With 248 yards to a pin at the back right of 'the green behind a bunker, Scott hit 5-wood that faded slightly and held its line over the "It was a fun feeling," Sorenstam said.

After a spirited chat with his caddie, ooth were determined to ~queeze everything they could out of the second round at the Memorial. : Scott flirted with perfection Friday at Muirfield Village, missing four putts inside 12 feet and still shooting a 10-under 62. : It gave him a one-shot lead 0ver Rod Pampling, and lie hopes 1.t Will be enough to shake off the golf gremlins that have been holding. him back since his victory in Houston two months ago. : "We just told each other what we thought about \\'hat's going on out there, a bit of a heart-to-heart, t>ecause we knew 1 was close tp playing really well," Scott said of his talk with Tony Navarro. "Our idea was to come out and be focused, ljlld neither of us make a mistake." · : He made one, bitting a heavy 7-iron that tumbled 0ff the front of the green and into the bunker on the par-3 16th, and his 12-foot par putt rippled over the edge. He followed that with a 20-footer on the I 7th for his 11th birdie of the round. : Scott was at 12-under 132, one shot ahead of Pampling, who played bogey-free for a 68. Bubba Watson had a chance to tie for the lead until he went long on the 18th for a bogey for a 68, leaving him at a 10-under 134 with another Aussie, Aaron Baddeley (68). : It was another day of good scoring conditions, with sti~ing heat, mild breezes, fairways with plenty of roll and greens that held approach shots and rolled smoothly. That wasn't the case for Tiger Woods. · The three-time Memorial champion hit the ball decently enough, but couldn't make anything outside 6 feet until he rolled in a 10-foot birdie on the final hole for a 72, leaving him 10 shots behind. "You look at a Jot of guys up there, they're makin~ a bunch of. putts, and not JUSt from 6, 7, 8 feet. They're making them from 20 feet," Woods said. "I just haven't done that." · · Scott didn't really need to. He hit the ball so pure that except for hitting into the bunker on tile 16th and going into the first cut of rough beyond the 18th green, he had only one putt longer than 15 feet Jim Furyk .nuticed the 62 on the board before he teed . off, but what really got his attention were the other low scores from the morning group of players - some were · pretty good, but nowhere close to what Scott did. · Scott's round was one shot off the course record - John Huston had a 61 in 1996 but even more impressive was that the next lowest score on the day was 67. · "That round was really good because it separated himself," Furyk said after his 69. "That's how I judge a low round. Someone might shoot 63, and you'll see a couple of 64s and a couple of 65s. But when the next best round is a 67 ... that's a darn good round.'.' . · It was so good that Scott twice had reason to think about a 59. · After going out in 30 to move into a tie for the lead, he birdied the next three holes to reach 9 under through 12 holes, then hit his approach to 5 feet on the 13th. Anothet birdie would have put him at 10 under for the round, needing only ' three birdies over the final ·five holes to hit golf's magic number. "The way thin~s were going, it was realistic with a par 5 in there," Scott said. The slick putt slid by on the right, and Scott returned his focus to the next shot. He e,scaped with par on a good two-putt from 40 feet on the 14th, then hit his best shot of the day.

Local educator ttJ.J 'tts up in Heinlein novels Bv JAMES SAN.DS So f!lr as this writer can tell, only one former Gallia County resident has been both a real person and a fictional character, all in the same lifetime. That person would be Dr. Samuel Renshaw who from 1914 to 1915 taught psychology at Rio Grande College. He later taught many years at · Ohio State in the psychology department. But he appeared as a fictional character in several :science fiction books writ:ten by Robert Heinlein. ·. For instance in Heinlein's book Citizen of the Galaxy, the boy named Thorby is educated by his adoptive father/owner/teacher. It appears that the father is usmg a tachistoscope to increase the boy's reading speed. The technique is attributed in the book to Renshaw, who the novel says has shown that our senses may · be made more efficient by training. The only training mentioned in the novel is what is done with the tachistoscope. In the Heinlein novel Stranger in a Strange Land, one of Heinlein's "Fair Witnesses" gains some respect because he has been tramed in total recall by the expert Dr. Samuel Renshaw. In Heinlein's Gulf, Renshaw also appears. The hero of the story; GileadGreene-Abner-Briggs, is exposed to a device that throws groups of digits on a screen for periods of seconds. The device is called a ."Renshaw Tachistoscope." The hero is exposed to the machine to increase his observational ability in both speed and accuracy. Renshaw 's work is descriqed as showing that "most people are about onefifth efficient in using their capacities to see, hear, taste, feel and remember." , But not only was Renshaw a fictional character, he was a real person who actually did invent a tachistoscope, a device that was used first during World War n to train air corps men to recognize enemy planes PageC2 and after the war to train poor readers for faster speed and retention of materials. The first tachistoscope dates back to 1859 to a German scientist. But in 1946, Renshaw patented the American tachistoscope. When Renshaw came to Rio Grande in 1914, he was only 22 years of age. He resided in the old · Allen House. Besides teaching psychology, Renshaw served as the school's first football coach. In fact, mod. em football was introduced to Rio Grande by Renshaw. Rio Grande had played football going back to the 1880s but it was what was called ·"Association Football," which was a combination of football and soccer. Sam Renshaw was born in Sugar Grove, Ohio. He graduated from Lancaster High ·school, Ohio University and Ohio State. At the beginning of World War II, the Navy sent many of its pilots to Ohio State, where Renshaw conducted a Recognition School. In later years, other· branches of the U.S. Military sent pilots there as did armed forces of Great Britain and Canada. Methods used by Renshaw were top secret, but they basically involved preparing servicemen to recognize more quickly the identities of approaching aircraft. That speedier perception meant the difference between victory and defeat in many battles. Renshaw pioneered a field called "Experimental Psychology." Renshaw was known for his studies about so called "Sav.an.ts" who had great mental capacity. For instance Renshaw once wrote about Polish math wizard Salo Finktistein who before the age of computers was hired by broadcasting chains to do presidential election projections based on sample results. Renshaw spend several days observing ·how Finktistein solved difficult math problems. There were other savants similar to the 5-year-old of a few years . ago who could tell a person what day of the . week any day fell from 1800 to 2000. For instance if he was asked what · day did June 3, 1847, fall on and he would say Wednesday if that was the . day. And he was always right. · Renshaw became noted because a person using his methods could be taught to read up to I ,400 ·words a minute with comprehen, sion. According to a May 23, J945, edition of the Gallipolis Tribune, "Dr. Renshaw has also been interested in the so called 'lie detectors,' for use in criminal investigations, an · apparatus which he has developed has been used experimentally in a number of important cases by police officers." For some years, Renshaw edited a journal called Visual Psychology. . There were. 23 volumes published before the journal went out of business. Dr. Renshaw dit;d in 1981 at the age of 89.

Local educator ttJ.J 'tts up in Heinlein novels Bv JAMES SAN.DS So f!lr as this writer can tell, only one former Gallia County resident has been both a real person and a fictional character, all in the same lifetime. That person would be Dr. Samuel Renshaw who from 1914 to 1915 taught psychology at Rio Grande College. He later taught many years at · Ohio State in the psychology department. But he appeared as a fictional character in several :science fiction books writ:ten by Robert Heinlein. ·. For instance in Heinlein's book Citizen of the Galaxy, the boy named Thorby is educated by his adoptive father/owner/teacher. It appears that the father is usmg a tachistoscope to increase the boy's reading speed. The technique is attributed in the book to Renshaw, who the novel says has shown that our senses may · be made more efficient by training. The only training mentioned in the novel is what is done with the tachistoscope. In the Heinlein novel Stranger in a Strange Land, one of Heinlein's "Fair Witnesses" gains some respect because he has been tramed in total recall by the expert Dr. Samuel Renshaw. In Heinlein's Gulf, Renshaw also appears. The hero of the story; GileadGreene-Abner-Briggs, is exposed to a device that throws groups of digits on a screen for periods of seconds. The device is called a ."Renshaw Tachistoscope." The hero is exposed to the machine to increase his observational ability in both speed and accuracy. Renshaw 's work is descriqed as showing that "most people are about onefifth efficient in using their capacities to see, hear, taste, feel and remember." , But not only was Renshaw a fictional character, he was a real person who actually did invent a tachistoscope, a device that was used first during World War n to train air corps men to recognize enemy planes PageC2 and after the war to train poor readers for faster speed and retention of materials. The first tachistoscope dates back to 1859 to a German scientist. But in 1946, Renshaw patented the American tachistoscope. When Renshaw came to Rio Grande in 1914, he was only 22 years of age. He resided in the old · Allen House. Besides teaching psychology, Renshaw served as the school's first football coach. In fact, mod. em football was introduced to Rio Grande by Renshaw. Rio Grande had played football going back to the 1880s but it was what was called ·"Association Football," which was a combination of football and soccer. Sam Renshaw was born in Sugar Grove, Ohio. He graduated from Lancaster High ·school, Ohio University and Ohio State. At the beginning of World War II, the Navy sent many of its pilots to Ohio State, where Renshaw conducted a Recognition School. In later years, other· branches of the U.S. Military sent pilots there as did armed forces of Great Britain and Canada. Methods used by Renshaw were top secret, but they basically involved preparing servicemen to recognize more quickly the identities of approaching aircraft. That speedier perception meant the difference between victory and defeat in many battles. Renshaw pioneered a field called "Experimental Psychology." Renshaw was known for his studies about so called "Sav.an.ts" who had great mental capacity. For instance Renshaw once wrote about Polish math wizard Salo Finktistein who before the age of computers was hired by broadcasting chains to do presidential election projections based on sample results. Renshaw spend several days observing ·how Finktistein solved difficult math problems. There were other savants similar to the 5-year-old of a few years . ago who could tell a person what day of the . week any day fell from 1800 to 2000. For instance if he was asked what · day did June 3, 1847, fall on and he would say Wednesday if that was the . day. And he was always right. · Renshaw became noted because a person using his methods could be taught to read up to I ,400 ·words a minute with comprehen, sion. According to a May 23, J945, edition of the Gallipolis Tribune, "Dr. Renshaw has also been interested in the so called 'lie detectors,' for use in criminal investigations, an · apparatus which he has developed has been used experimentally in a number of important cases by police officers." For some years, Renshaw edited a journal called Visual Psychology. . There were. 23 volumes published before the journal went out of business. Dr. Renshaw dit;d in 1981 at the age of 89.

They come dressed in their fine st, sneakers that light up, football jerseys with their favorite team's logo, pretty sun dresses with matching sandals, cheerleading ·outfits, ball caps and bonnets.

While searing heat has a place in barbecue, it shouldn't be the defau lt. \1any cuts of meat benefit from the so-called low-and-slow cooking method, which involves ,longer cooking times at lower temperatures. · It's easy to do this on virtually any home grill, gas or charcoal. and the recipes here include instructions for both. At the most basic level, it entails preheating the grill, then either pushing the charcoal to one side or turning off one of the gas burners. The secret 10 successful and safe low-temperature grilling is an instant-read thermometer. Inserted at the thickest part of the meat, these thermometers indicate when the food has reached a safe temperature. Many manufacturers even make wireless digital thermometers. which include a probe that stays in the meat and an in~icator you can carry with you to monitor your food from afar. Also helpful are oven thermometers, which often are built in to newer grills (both gas and charcoal). This helps you maintain a constant temperature inside the grill. If your grill isn't equi pped with one, inexpen.sive oven thermometers can be found at most kitchen supply shops.

They come dressed in their fine st, sneakers that light up, football jerseys with their favorite team's logo, pretty sun dresses with matching sandals, cheerleading ·outfits, ball caps and bonnets.

While searing heat has a place in barbecue, it shouldn't be the defau lt. \1any cuts of meat benefit from the so-called low-and-slow cooking method, which involves ,longer cooking times at lower temperatures. · It's easy to do this on virtually any home grill, gas or charcoal. and the recipes here include instructions for both. At the most basic level, it entails preheating the grill, then either pushing the charcoal to one side or turning off one of the gas burners. The secret 10 successful and safe low-temperature grilling is an instant-read thermometer. Inserted at the thickest part of the meat, these thermometers indicate when the food has reached a safe temperature. Many manufacturers even make wireless digital thermometers. which include a probe that stays in the meat and an in~icator you can carry with you to monitor your food from afar. Also helpful are oven thermometers, which often are built in to newer grills (both gas and charcoal). This helps you maintain a constant temperature inside the grill. If your grill isn't equi pped with one, inexpen.sive oven thermometers can be found at most kitchen supply shops.

Is your pyramidal Alberta spruce shedding its needles? As plants become stressed .due to high temperatures and dry weather conditions, insect problems are more noticeable in homeowners' ·yards. Reducing plant stress 1s the best defens1ve mechanism to help plants ward off insect problems. If plants are already in the ground, mulch the plants with one to three inches of mulch to reduce water evaporation from the soil and to reduce soil temperature. Irrigate flower and garden beds in the morning. During extended dry periods of time, water down the plant foliage to wash off dust and insects. Dust on leaves reduces the plant's ability to produce catbohydrates through the ·photosynthe.sis process, thus slowing down its growth. Azalea plants have seen large populations of Azalea lace bug sucking out the sugars and nutrients from their leaves. The older leaves are first effected than the bugs. lay eggs on the younger leaves for the·next generation of bugs.

Many well meaning people will attempt to save you~g animals, putting both themselves and the animal at risk. State and federal laws protect and regulate wildlife ' and endangered species in Ohio. Only persons under special permit issued by the ODNR Division of Wildlife may possess a native wild animal. Specially trained and licensed volunteer rehabilitators provide care to orphaned or injured animals. Every year, wildlife officers issue summons to individuals who have taken wildlife, particularly fawns, out of the wild and did not notify the officer they had the animal in their possession. "When a wildlife officer receives .a call regarding a fawn, the first thing they do is advise the person to take the ani mal back to where they found it," stated Mark Hemming, Wildlife Management Supervisor for southeastern Oh10. "Many wild animals are raised by one adult. A doe will protect her young from predators by leaving it alone m • ~~- '"'· woh r grassy meadow. The hidden fawn virtually has no scent to attract predators. The doe attends .to the fawn several times a day, but will hide from humans who may be nearby," continued Hemming. Many people believe once young wildlife has been touched or handled by humans the mother will no longer have anything· to do with it. "Not so," says Hemming. "Handling wjld animals is discouraged for your benefit, as well as theirs." Contac.t your local wildlife officer or wildlife district office before taking action. Trust and follow the advice of these trained professionals. ad at any time.

Is your pyramidal Alberta spruce shedding its needles? As plants become stressed .due to high temperatures and dry weather conditions, insect problems are more noticeable in homeowners' ·yards. Reducing plant stress 1s the best defens1ve mechanism to help plants ward off insect problems. If plants are already in the ground, mulch the plants with one to three inches of mulch to reduce water evaporation from the soil and to reduce soil temperature. Irrigate flower and garden beds in the morning. During extended dry periods of time, water down the plant foliage to wash off dust and insects. Dust on leaves reduces the plant's ability to produce catbohydrates through the ·photosynthe.sis process, thus slowing down its growth. Azalea plants have seen large populations of Azalea lace bug sucking out the sugars and nutrients from their leaves. The older leaves are first effected than the bugs. lay eggs on the younger leaves for the·next generation of bugs.

ODNR discourages picking up wild animals ATHENS Wildlife reproduction in Ohio will soon be at its peak, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Wildlife. Many well meaning people will attempt to save you~g animals, putting both themselves and the animal at risk. State and federal laws protect and regulate wildlife ' and endangered species in Ohio. Only persons under special permit issued by the ODNR Division of Wildlife may possess a native wild animal. Specially trained and licensed volunteer rehabilitators provide care to orphaned or injured animals. Every year, wildlife officers issue summons to individuals who have taken wildlife, particularly fawns, out of the wild and did not notify the officer they had the animal in their possession. "When a wildlife officer receives .a call regarding a fawn, the first thing they do is advise the person to take the ani mal back to where they found it," stated Mark Hemming, Wildlife Management Supervisor for southeastern Oh10. "Many wild animals are raised by one adult. A doe will protect her young from predators by leaving it alone m • ~~- '"'· woh r grassy meadow. The hidden fawn virtually has no scent to attract predators. The doe attends .to the fawn several times a day, but will hide from humans who may be nearby," continued Hemming. Many people believe once young wildlife has been touched or handled by humans the mother will no longer have anything· to do with it. "Not so," says Hemming. "Handling wjld animals is discouraged for your benefit, as well as theirs." Contac.t your local wildlife officer or wildlife district office before taking action.

ESTATE Guard your home against 'chimney critters' Home-price growth in iunbap limes -irntinel (MS) Homeowners need to think about critters taking up residence in their chimneys. During nesting season, birds, raccoons and squirrels often look for safe and dry places to stay, and homeownerS with unguarded, idle chimneys might , find themselves hosting some unwanted guests until fall and cooler temperatures arrive. These animals can be extremely loud and disruptive, compromise the safe use of the chimney and pose ·health hazards. Sooty Bob, a. k.a. Bob Daniels, founder of · HomeSaver Inc., advocates that the simple installation of a chimney cap can save homeowners from the hazard of "chimney critters." HomeSaver specializes in · making chimneys safer through the production and sale of chimney liners, chimney caps and fireplace dampers. "Having an animal·nest or live in your chimney is an aggravating and unsanitary experience. It can also be unsafe," says Sooty Bob. Even if the critters remain confined to the chimney, their presence can have major consequences throughout the home: The animals can transmit disease through their droppings, and their nests and dens can block the release of ' Prevent 'chimney critters" from taking up residence in your chimney by installing a chimney cap. smoke and other toxins, . ney was last cleaned.

This metal device attaches to the top of a chimney, sealing off the opening, while allowing smoke and toxins to exit. "Not only does a chimney cap provide a barrier from nesting animals. but it is an important safety feature for every chimney," adds Bob. Chimney caps trap embers and sparks, reducing chances of a fire, and shield the flue from snow or rain that can damage bricks and mortar. Chimney caps can also increase the draft of the chimney - the upward movement of . air in the chimney that ushers smoke and gasses up and out. HomeSaver manufactures a variety of chimney caps available exclusively through chimney service professionals. All carry a lifetime warranty, are lightweight, resistant to wind/water damage . and rustproof To find a wildlife control or chimney professional, visit HomeSaver's online locator at www.homesaver.com.

' Bv CHARLENE HOERJC:H HOEFLICH@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM POMEROY - While the number of motorcyclists traveling here for the Gold Wings and Ribs Festival was down a hundred or so, local attendance enjoying the festivities appeared to be up. Paul Darnell estimated between 250 and 300 bikes from several states were in and out during the two-date event, and said he "somewhat attributed. the fewer number this year to the price of gas." He said that overall the festival committee was "real pleased" with the way everything went. He noted that this is the first year in the five years it has been held that it didn't rain one day or the other. The NASCAR simulator appeared to be popular with the festival goers who also enjoyed entertainment on the stage:and in the amphitheater, and the barbecued .ribs and other foods served under tents stretched along the center of the upper parking lot where the vendors were located. . ··, . • .
