K ~n nedy Museum of Art 's newest exhibition, " Photo-Communique." The images share one common thread, says Paul -Legris, I he John B. and Dareth A. Gerlac h Director of the Kennedy Museum of Art.· · "Each image has the ability to convey objecti vity even . through the lens of careful composition. Photography is a medium that conveys a se nse of realism and human experience. something other mediums may not necessaril y be able to do,'' he says. The exhibition, which opens Friday and runs through !\1arch 26; features photographs from KMA's Print Collection, a collection thai consists of ·over I000 images. Artists featured in the ex hibit ion include Ohio University alum Herman Leonard (B.F.A. Photography, ,47), dubbed by performer Tony Bennett as "the greatest li ving photographer of jazz mu,sic ians." Leonard. who received the University's Medal of Merit 'in 1992. began his education in the College of Fine Art's phntography' program in 1940, as it wa.s the only school in the . wunlry that nffered a degree in photography. His images of 1940s and 1950s jazz greats like Benny Goodman (whom he first phntographed · as · an Ohio University · student ), Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Ella Fitzge rald, and . Thelonious Monk, to name a ·few, are legemlary. Many oi· Leonard ,s photographs are also housed in the Sm ithsonian l.n stitute 's permanent ;u·chives of musical history in Washington, D.C.

A few days ago my wife and I were awoken by loud noises in our backyard at around 3 a.m. At the time, we did not notice anything . unusual. Shortly after, however, we heard another loud noise on our dov.nstairs p&tio. When we investigated, we were surprised to see an intruder had broken through the door and was laying on our floor. My wtfe phoned the Meigs County Shenff's Office only to find out that the only deputy on duty was currently fielding a call on the other end of the county Therefore, the call was dispatched to the Pomeroy Pollee Department. Within .mtnutes, the Pomeroy Police amved on the scene and handled the sit. uation in the utmost professional manner. The deputy also arrived soon after. In a time' of decreased budgets and manpower, they are expected to "do more with less." Instead of railing against officers who are at the mercy of high call volumes and a severe shortage of patrol officers, we should look at petittoning our elected representatives to look at the staffing of the departments. This letter is a "thumbs up" to our local authorities for keeping our community safe. Frank and JoAnn Newsome · Fiv6J'oints, Pomeroy TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Thursday. Jan. 19, the 19th day of 2006.

Other items on hi s domestic agenda include trying once again to get his tax cuts · made perma·nent and a math-and-sci-· ence initiative· to keep America competitive. · Bush mentioned these . items last week in a question-and-answer session with citizens in Louisville, Ky., which some White House aides described as a forecast of his State of the Unton message. Bush tried to reform . Social Security last year claiming that he ' d . gained political capital in the 2004 elections. He spent a lot and failed to move Congress, even though it's · GOP-dominated. Now, he has less capital, his approval.. ra~ings are down and it's an election year. The science initiative, if it's ambittous, could attract' bipartisan support, but his tax cuts and incremental, marketbased health reforms will be fought fiercely by Democrats. Bush has yet to use the "c" word - "crisis" about the health care system, but it's clear there is one, and it presents an immediate threat to employers and moderateincome patients , a huge long-term threat to the U.S. economy and a political danger for Bush. For the moment, health care costs are not rising at double-digit rates, but they're just under. The government just reported that total health care spending rose 7. 9 percent in 2004. But a survey of more than 2,000 employers conducted by · the Kaiser Family Foundation found that premiUms increased Morton Kondrack e an average of 9.5 percent in 2005, down from 11 .2 percent in 2004,. "The rate of gfowth is still more than three ltme s the growth in workers ,. earnings (2.7 percent) and two-and-a-half times the rate of inflation (3.5 percent)," Kaiser said. "Since 2000, premium s have gone up 73 percent." The foundation found that 60 percent of U.S. businesses now offer insurance to their workers, down from 69 ' percent in 2000. Not only are increasing numbers of firms dropping insurance coverage, but most are forcing their employees to pay more of the premium cost and imposing more co-pays and higher deductibles . The White House is fully aware of the consequence. Bush's chief economic adviser, AI Hubbard, told me ·in an interview last week that health costs were a primary reason that - despite ~ robust economy - wages have been rising slowly. That's a major talking point for Democrats and soine outsiders agree it could severely impact the 2006 eie·ctions.· On "Fox News Sunday," Jan. I, Diane Swank, chief economist of Mesirow Financial , predicted : that the Dow Jones Industrial Average would roar up to 12,000 ih 2006, but added, "if you're rich, this is a great economy to be wealthy in, but other than that, it-'s not great. And that's what people remember when they go to the polls ." The other guest on the program, John Bogie, founder of the Vanguard Group, agreed that "workers are falling behind costof-living increases and. I think there's a' lot of economic dissatisfaction. And since· the Republicans are in power, it will redound against them." Under current condi -· lions, higher costs mean more people uninsuredsome 45 million at some time during any ye ar, and rising . About 20 million lack insurance all year Ion!! . According to AHIP, the health insurance lobby, 15 million . of the uninsured are lower-income persons not eligible for public pro' grams like Medicaid, 9 million are eligible but not enrolled and about I0 million are htgher-income persons who choo se to go unin sured . In the past, according to AHIP President Karen lgnani, the administration has aimed its proposalstax credits, Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and assoctatwn health pools-at about I0 million to 12 million of the uninsured. Based on what Bush and Hubbard said, it appears Bush will be back with the same proposals. It remains to be seen how ambitious the ad mini strati on will be, but it's clear that health care will get more emphaSIS. As Hubbard told me, "if you · have insurance through your employer, there are huge tax advantages. If your employer doesn't provide it , you have to pay o'ut of your after-tax income. We ' ve got to level the playing field." Bush said he would al so propose expansion of HSAs-ta:X-protected sa vings accounts that employees use to pay medical expenses and preiniuJTIS for high-dedu ctible insu~;., ance policies. ,, Both Bu sh and Hub b a r~ > said that HSAs would helg . lower health costs by m ak ~: : ing consumers aw are of what they are spending for". care . "The fundamental problem with health care ," Hubbard said : "is lh ~ t people think it 's fre e . If your employer paid for foo<! .-. when you go to the gro" eery you 'would never pay·• attention to price and yoll'' would buy more than you needed . _ "Eventually, supermaru:: kets wouldn ' t even have prices. And if they didn ' t li st prices, don't you think they would charge more ? Absolutely, they would ." It's undoubtedly tru ~ . but Bush ',s •ncre mental,, , market-based approach icS; anathema to Demo crat s and many health care non e, profit groups, which favor a comprehen sive , gove rn,; ment-backed plan. ·' It 's 'also not clear how- · much money Bu sh will put · behind· his propo sal s.

And, at the same tim(!:• he wi II try to get ·Congress ' · to make· hi s tux cuts permanent, at a cost estimated at nearly $2 trillion over a I 0-year period-most of which would accru q to ' upper-income ta xpayers.

M1Chael Douglas' character says, "t-ioney itseH isn't lost or made; it's simply transferred from one perceptiOn to another. This paint1ng here. I bought it 10 years ago for 60 thousand -dollars. I cOuld sell it today for 600. The illusion has becom"e real and the more real it becomes. the more desperately they want it." Today 's deal was a problem for South only because he wasn't using transfers. If you had been in his seat, playing in four spades, what. would you have done after West led the heart king? West opened three hearts, shoWing some 5·1 0 high-card points and a decent seven-card suit. NOrth overca lled three no~ lrump, hoping his partner had a few useful goodies. South might ·well have passed that out, and here North would have raked in an easy overtrick. II would also have been a good idea lor South to - use a transfer bid, advancing tour hearts so that North could have become the declarer 1n lour spades. There seem to be 10 easy tricks: six spades. one h,ea rt , one diamond and two clubs. What might go wrong? Well, West an noUnced a seven-ca rd ·heart suit . . Assuming he has that, East is void. "sO: if you cover with dummy's heart ace. East will ruff away one of your .tO. trick~. Instead, play low !rom the dummy, letting West hold the trick. He "will continue with the heart queen, Again leave the ace on the board . And when West persists with the heart jack, you complete the trilecta. ducking from the dummy for tHe third time. You ruff in hand, draw trumps, and claim those 10 tricks.
