Thought for Today: "The world always makes the assump.'lion that the exposure of an error is ideqtical with the discovery . of truth - that the error and truth are simply opposite. They are · : nothing of the sort. What the world turns to, when it is cured of · one error, is usually simply another error, and maybe one worse : than the first one." - H.L. Mencken (1880-1956). .

After a while; the cacophony of hatred from the left is just numbing. And it 's also mean. Americah women, particularly, do not respond well to nastiness. Do . you think Ted Kennedy 's attacks on Samuel · Alito and the subsequent tears from this wife helped the Democrats? Do you? To be fair, Republicans made the same mi stake .with all the Clinton bashing. After a while, it just became boring. But that was then, and this is now. We are living in a much more dangerous time. All the poll s show that Americans remain uneasy about terrorism and their own personal security. And in this area, the Democrats poll far below the Republicans. That "s because the Dems do not put forth concrete solutions. to . vexing problems. What' s the liberal solution to the chaotic illegal immigration situation and the porous sauthern border'' How would the left handle Iran if it continues to develop nukes ? And on Iraq, the Democratic message is mixed. Hillary wants to win it; Howard Dean says we can't achieve victory. When it come~ to cohesion, the Democrat Party rivals the Balkans. Finally, the left-wing media unknowingly hurts the Democrats, the very party it wants to promote. By making celebrities of loons like Cindy Sheehan and Harry Belafonte, the press spotlights the radical·ism on display on the fringes ,of the Democrat party. Republicans and cons~rva­ tives hoot down Ms. Sheehan and Mr. Elelafonte all day long, but liberals are largely silent. Believe me, that silenc.e •do'es not go umioticed by independentminded Americans. And the Democrats have little chance to regain power in America without a substantial number of independents shifting to their c·ause. But right now, that is not h~ppening , and I see no liberal strategy on the horizon to change the situation. At this point, the champions of the blue states are, indeed, singing the blues.

Eastern (8-6, 4-3) was led by senior guard Nathan Cozart, who was held to a season-low 16 points. Cozart received great backing from his teammates as the Eagles of coac h Howie Caldwell put forth a more balanced score~fort. Likewise, ing Cozart. despite getting double- teamed, also played unselfishly and dished out six assists in another great offensive display. Marcus Guess notched 11 poin.ts for the Eagles, while Alex McGrath netted nine , Nathan Carroll seven, Kyle Rawson seven and Michael Owen .two. Southern was led by senior Brad Crouch, who netted a game- high 22 poitits and had several key rebou.nds for the Torn adoes. In a caree r effort, the senior singlehanded kept Southern in the game, Crouch worked the perimeter to perfection. Patrick -Johnson added 12 points, but the rest of the Southern offense · mis- fired terribly. Josh Pape had three, Wes Riffle three, .Jesse McKnight two. and usual double~digit man Corbin Sellers was held scoreless. I>arin Teaford, battling an illness Was also held scoreless. One. Southern player and sometimes starter did not play because · of disciplinary action. Marcus Guess., didn ' t leave the Tornadoes guessing long. He asserted ·himself as the go-to man initially, when Southern tightened its clasp on the highscoring Nathan Cozart. Ouess hit a long two, and a three from the left wing to give Eastern' a . 5-0 advantage right out of the gate. Patrick Johnson countered on the third possession of the game with a twisting lay-in for the Tornadoes (52). T~e tempo was deliberate and methodical. Michael Oweri hit a shot from the foul line for the Eagles, then Brad Crouch hit a baseline driver for a 7-4 taJly. Eastern's Rawson had a follow-up jumper and McGrath a 14 footer as Eastern aired it out a little to (1 -4, but Crouch hit hi s first tri-fecta to make it an 11-7 game. The period ended at 13-9 Eastern. The . big story was that Nathan Cozart was held scoreless.

MELISSA CoNKLE, BSN, RN, PHN PROJECT DIRECTOR In July 2005, the Gallia County Health Department received $62,040 in grant funding from the ' Ohio Department of Health for a Women 's Health Services clinic . The purpose of the Women's Health Services Program (WHSP) is to improve the health and wellbeing of women , infant s, children and families by assuring health care access for a vulnerable population of low-income women. The pn.>gram targets uninsured/underinsured women whose incomes--are at or below. 100 percent of the federal poverty level, but services are available to all Ohio residt;nts regardless.of ability to pay. As the _grant proposal was bemg wntten, stai!St!Cs from the 2000 Census revealed that 18.1 percent of the population of Gallia County (currently 31,30 I) lives below the 100 percent poverty level. That number includes 4,515 men and wcimen aged l5 and over. . The grant proposal targeted I0 percent or 451 people for services. The clinic is offer.ed for direct care services for women on the fust and third Wednesday of each m.onth. Clients receive .comprehen.sive services that · mclude pelvic exams and lab tcstmg. breast. exams, screemng tor cervical cancer, screening and treatment for sex ually transmilled diseases, HJV screening, prenatal care , and birth control. Birth control methods available include: oral contraceptives, Dcpo-Provera, condoms, abstinence counselinll, and natural family plannmg counsel mg. In addition to direct care. chents also rece1ve edu ca11on and co~nselmg targeted ~o meet the1r personal ne.ed. fhe clime staff also assists the client to determ_me ~f shemay be eligible tor ass1sranee from the Department of Jobs and Famtly Servtces · and makes referral s to other collaborating agenc1es as n~eded. . . . Health department clime staff includes two registered nurses, a social worker, and two clerks. The health care provt?er, a c~rttf1ed nurse pnicuuoner, 1s contracted ·through t~e OB-Gyn Department of Holzer Cl1111C. Direct care services are also available on the second Wednesday of the month for sexually transmitted disease (STD) screening · and treatment for male partners, Male clients who believe that they may have been exposed to a STD may contact the clime to be sc reened and then rece1vc follow -up care from 1he health department's medica l director. The WHSP grant application was written as a response to a documented. unmel need in the community. Prior to re ceivi ng , the Women's He alth Services funding, there were limited referral sources in the community for unin sured clients to receive necessary care . Callers were often rcfen·ed to family plan-ning and STD clinics located outside the couflty. The grant funding was exp~cted to cover 36 percent of the project exp~nses, with the hal·ante of the cost being covered through c) ielil fees and ' th · d . rt .1 ers ~ sf~e YofJhio:established ·· lidin fee scale is used to s g · deter~me !he charge for the seit-p,aym" . . client.
