Unfortunately, every year thousand s of Americans lose loved one s to thi s ternble ep1denHc , and most are left wondenng what they could have done to prevent it. · Too often we ass ume that violence happen s only to other people - people of a different race or culture, people 'who live in a different community, or people m a different type of relationship. But domestic violence does not di scriminate. It can touch everyone - through friends, co-workers and family members who are sufferin g silently without our even knowmg it. Man ):' of us also know abusers - people who may seem , charming and hkable on the surface but cause fear, self-doubt, pam, even death, to those they claim to love. Recent studies show that as many as one-thtrd of teens expencncc abuse in a dating relation ship. And, more than half of teen s say they know fnends who have been physically. sexually or verbally abu sed. The need for early intervenllon to change these shockm g statistics is clear. We must 1each out to youth and talk openly and often about the se issues so we can help them to a'01d the terri ble sorrow felt by fam1he s and others who are victims of abuse.

Pubhshed evsry af te rnoon Monday, February 27, 2006 Port 'Control: It's a no-brainer The Daily Sentinel Reader Services Pagei\4- _ _...J Prestdent Bush has asked anyone opposed to the operatiOnal sale of a half dozen American ports to a United Arab Emirates company '" to step up and explain why all of a sudden a M iddie Eastern company is held to a different standard than a Great Brit ish company." Well . one overwhelming re ason is that it was spawn of the Middle East, not Great Britain, that hijacked four American passenger planes on Sept. I I. 2001 . And it was United Arab Emirates, not Great Britain, that served as a financial and opera! ion aI base for the Sept. 11 hijackers (two of whom came from UAE), and a hub for Pakistan 's rogue nuclear export bu siness. As · Great Britain is lslamiied, the distmcl!on narrows; for now, it's reason enough to hold a · UAE wmpany to that "different standard." But sw;h evidence and there 's more -·- is obvious: hardly the stuff of great debates. The fact that the presi(,]ent even begs . the question is what requires deeper consideration . Bush threatens to veto any legislation drafted again st the port sale. Why? The only. explanation I can think ofand it spell s disaster - is that George W. Bush has decided that international feelings trump national concerns; that upsetting . the UAE is worse than upsetting · Amen cans '"I am trying to Diana West conduct a foreign policy now by saying to the people of the world. ' We'll treat you fairly,"' he said. Fairly? That's how you treat people after the war, not while the outcome remains undecided. I didn't set out to write · abo.u t the port story Today ' s subject was meant to be Karen Hughes, Bush's diplomatic envoy extraordinary: the lady charged with makmg Them love Us; the lady who is supposed to make the world namely, the Mu slim world - see that "we'll treat you fairly." In international circles, thts requires leveling the existential playing field. ·where Bush labors to knock down our historic affinity with Great Britain to a par with UAE. Hughes, in ber address to the U.S.- Isiamic World Forum m Qatar. tries to belittle America's history of ever-expanding freedom into a We Arc Ail Flawed narrative. As in: Once upon a time (that takes care of the first 300 years), there was a lady named Rosa Parks. who, as Hughes put tl, "was tired of a life of indignity and il}justice in a country that was failing to live up to its founding conviction that ail of us are created equal." We Are All Flawed . was. Here Hughe s addressing some of the world's leading repressors - representatives of \:ountries where there is little to no freedom of con science. little to no reli gious fre edom , and little to no sexual equality - runnin g down the Uriited States for "failing to live up to our foundin g convictions. " Aiming low. she achieved a kind of immol'al equivalence with. the untree. What 's notable about Hughes' talk , whtch included vignettes about individu als who have tried to advance treedorn in the Muslim world. is that she used their example to prove, as w!lh Rosa Parks,' that "one perwn of courage and conscience can make (a difference)." But they haven't. · Where Rosa Parks succeed ed symbolically becau se the nation institutionally was changing, these individuab spark and fail to ignite - as Rosa Parks would have surely failed m, say.

For the torture he inll tcted on 17-year-old Terri Winchell 25 years ago, he deserves every second of the I0 to 15 · minutes of horrible pain he might fee l as the lethal cocktail of drugs spreads through hi s body.

It~ _ not www.mydailysentinel.com BY GREG RISLINO ASSOCIATED PRESS WRI TER ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER ·" UK~ ~onday,Februarr27,2006 LOS ANGELES - Don Knotts, who kept generation s of TV audiences laughing as bumbling Deputy Barney Fife on "The Andy Griffith Show" and would-be swinger landlord Ralph Furley on "Three's Company," has dted. He was 81. Knotts died Friday night of pulmonary and respiratory complications at a Los Angeles hospital, said Paul Ward, a spokesman for the cable network TV Land, which airs his two signature shows. Griffith, who remained close friends with Knotts, said he had a brilliant comedic mind and wrote some of the show 's best scenes. "Don was a small nian ... but everything else about him was large : his mind, his expressions," Griffith told The Associated Press on ·Saturday. "Don was special. T.here's nobody like him. "I loved him very much," Griffith added. "We had a long and wonderful life together." Unspecified health prob· !ems had forced Knotts to cancel an appearance in hi s native Morgantown in August. · The West Virginia-born actor's half-century career included seven TV series and more than 25 films, but it was the Griffith show that brought him TV immortality and five Emmys . The show ran from I96068, and was in the top 10 of the Nielsen ratin gs each season, including a No. I ranking its final year. It is one of only three series in. TV history to bow out at the top : The others are "I Love Lucy" and "Seinfeid ." The 249 episodes have appeared frequently in reruns and have spawned a large, active network of fan clubs. As the bug-eyed deputy 'to Griffith, Knotts carried in his shirt pocket the one bullet he ·was allowed after shooting himself in the foot. The constant fumbling. a recurring sight gag, was typical of hi's se lf-deprecating humor. Knotts, whose shy, softspoken manner was unlike hi s hi~h-strung characters, once said he was most proud of the Fife character and doesn't mind being remembered th~t way. . His favorite episodes, he said, were "The Pickle Story," where Aunt Bee makes pickles no one can eat, and "Barney and the Choir," where no one can stop him from singin~. "I can't smg. It makes me sad that I can't sing or dance well enough to be in a mu stcal, but I'm j usr not talented in that way." he lamented . "It's one of my weaknes ses." Knotts appeared on several other television shows. In 1979, he joined the cast of "Three' s Company,'' also starring John Ritter, Suzanne . 1 Somers and Joyce DeWttt. ' Early in his TV career, he was one of the origmal cast members of "The Steve Allen Show." the comedy-vanety show that ran from I956-61. He was one of a group of memora ble cqmtcs backing Allen that included Louis Nye, Tom Poston and Bill "Jose Jimenez" Dana. Knotts' G-rated fi Ims were .family fu n, · not box -office blockbusters . In most, he ends up the hero and gets the girl - a gifi who can see through hi s nervousness to the heart of gold. In the part-animated 1964 film "The In credible Mr. Limpet," K11otts plaxed a meek clerk who turns tnto a fi sh after he is rejected by the Navy. When it was announced 111 1998 that Jim Carrey would star in a "Limpet'' .remake, Knotts responded : "I'm JUst fiauered that someone of Carrey 's cali ber is remaking_ something I did .

Knotts poses as a famo us astronaut to the joy of his parents and hometown but is eventually exposed for what he really ts, a janitor so terrified of heights he refuses to ride an airplane. In the 1969 film "The Love God?,'' he was a g'eeky birdwatcher who is duped into becoming publisher of a naughty men's magazine and then becomes a national sex symbol. Eventually. he comes to his senses, leaves the big city and marries the sweet girl next door. He was among an army ·of comedians from Buster Keaton to Jonathan Winters to liven up the I963 megacomedy "It's A Mad, Mad, Mad. Mad World." ·· Other films include "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken" ( 1966); "The Shakiest Gun in the West'' ( 1968); and a few Disney · .fi lm s such as "The App le Dumpling Gang" (1974): "Gus" (1976); and "Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo" ( 1977). In 1998. he had a key role tn the back-to-the-past movie "Pleasantville ," playing a folksy television repairman whose supercharged remote control sends a teen bo~ and his sister into a TV s!lcom past. Knotts began his show biz career even before he graduated from high school, performing as a ventriloquist at local clubs and churches. He majored in speech at West Virginia University, then took off for the big city. "I went to New York cold. On a $100 bill.
