ALONG THE RivER Senators stave off elimination, Mighty Ducks sweep Avalanch¢ BY THE AssociATED PRUI BUFFALO. N.Y. - Wade Redden "s power-play· goal early in the third period ensured the top-seeded Ottawa Senators wouldn't go down with a whimper. · Brian Pothier ·also scored and Ray Emery stopped 29 shots in a 2-1 win over the Sabres on Thursday night that cut Buffalo's lead to 3-1 in the Eastern Conference semifinal series. Daniel Briere scored for Buft'alo, which had a fivegame winning streak snapped and lost for the first time in five home playoff games. The best-of-seven-series shifts to Ottawa for Game 5 on Saturday. The Senators still 'have a long climb back, considering · only two NHL teams Toronto in 1942 and the New York Islanders in 1975 have rallied from a 3-0 series deficit to win. Redden's goal came 3 min-" utes into the third period and shortly after Buffalo's Derek Roy was penalized for tripping. Mighty Ducks 4, A\'Blanche 1 DENVER Todd Marchant, Teemu Selanne and Dustin Penner scored goals following breakdowns by Avs defenseman Patrice Brisebois, and 25-year-old Russian rookie Ilya Bryzgalov was again brilliant in goal for Anaheim, which completed a four-game sweep of Colorado and advanced to the Western ' Conference finals for the second time in three seasons. Bryzgalov stopped 40 shots, capping a dazzling series that included two wins on the road after his shutout streak was snapped at three games and just shy of 250 minutes, the longest by a rookie and second best ·in NHL playoff history. Anaheim, which stifled Colorado's Fab Four of Joe.

This week Is a perfe'<;t time to visit your loved ones, friends, and neighbors, as many facilities will be holding special events. If you are unable to visit, please make a phone call, send a card, flowers or even an e-mail·- this special attention will make someone's day. · Take this time to reach out and let someom;'very special know that you are thinking about him or her now and throughout the year. 'I' : · : : all over the country colleges are lining up influential . speakers to bid their graduates adieu. The liberal folks have been very busy fielding invitations . Senator Clinton will speak at Adelphi University, Senator Schumer at Buffalo State University, Senator Boxer at Mills College and far-left actor Mike Farrell at Utica College, So far as I know, few are ol:ljecting to those people imparting their wisdom to . the students. But a funny thing happened on the way to academic freedom. Some liberal college people don't want it. If you veer away from liberal orthodoxy, you are not welcomed at commencement. The most egregious example of this is happening at The New School, , a college in New York City. Former Democrat Senator Bob Kerrey, .the President of the New School, is under fire for inviting Senator Bill O'Reilly · John McCain to speak at its graduation . A bunch Qf ~dents _and faculty me.mbers are demanding that McCain's invitation be resci n<!ed. In an open letter the dissenters said: "Sen ator McCain 's voting recqrd and public pronouncements are starkly at odds with the progre~sive social values for which this university once s'tood, and which we want to see upheld ." In other words, if you are · not a progressive liberal, get the deuce away from the · New School. Now how loopy is this ? Senator McCain has served his country ~eroically as most sane people know. He is certainly no bomb throwing conservative. He is a patriot who may be the next President of the United States. But for some at the .New School, he is not worthy to address them. Isn't tolerance supposed to be a liberal tenet? About 200 miles to the north, some loons at Boston College are doing the same thing to Secretary of State Rice. Condoleezza Hi storically, BC is not known as a far-left place, yet more than 150 Boston College faculty members have signed a letter objecting to awarding Secretary Rice an honorary degree at graduation. The prevailing wisdom among these pedagogues is that Rice is a warmonger. When one BC professor put that forth on my TV program, I told him it was a shame · three thousand Americans would noi be able to attend the college's graduation this year because they are dead. The man stumbled for words. Isn' t it interesting how close many fat-left individual s come to embracing fascism? The hallmark of total.• itarian right-wing regimes is to stifle all opposing points-of-view. No 'dissent is permitted. But the far-left is the same way, and all their talk of diversity and freedom of expression is just so much BS at BC. Stifling opposing any points-of-view. at American college is simply unacceptable . For the (ecord, both Condoleezza Rice and John McCain are great Americans who are trying to make their country a better, safer place. You may disagree with their policies and opinions but their dedi' cation is unassailable; · The fanatics at Boston College and the New School have embarrassed their institution s. Ignorance is not supposed, to be part of the University experience. Those schools and many others surely need to wise up. ~II TODAY IN HISTORY : Today is Sunday, May 14, the I 34th day of 2006.

Food will be available. Moving on· I had such -a sparkle· in my eyes," she said. "But once we got together, someHow yqu saw this as a ihreat to you. Slowly, you began tearing me down, the beatings, the verbal abuse, alienating me from my family and friends, all of this killed my lively spirit, leaving me dead inside. There was no sparkle left in my eyes.'-' Once she was torn down, and her self esteem was gone, it was difficult to leave her husband , Graham said. Women often start to believe that they cannot survive without the abuser. Graham wants women to -know that is not the case. "You cari ·Jive without them," she s_aid. "You can do it. If I can do it, anybody can do it." Besides.standing up to the abuser, facing the legal system also is intimidating, Graham said. But there is help with both aspects of the problem, she said. Susan Grady, advocate with Ga!lia County Victim Assistance, was involved with Graham's case almost from the beginning. She helped Graham through the often confusing court proceedings. Grady is a valuable resource for abuse victims who want to break free, Graham said. On average, it takes a victim seven attempts to leave the abuser, Grady . said. Although she loves her work as an advocate, it is often frustrating as women commonly drop charges and return to the abuser, she said. That is why watching Graham stick with her case until the end makes her feel so good. ' "It really does," she said. "I'm very proud of what she has accomplished. She has really turned her life around.'' Graham also credited the prosecuting attorney's office with being supportive. Since the November preliminary hearing, McKitrick has watched Graham transform, she said. Graham touched upon that transformation in the statement she read to the court. . "If there's one thing that I from PageA1 "I told her, 'Yes you can. Just look at me while you're up there (on the witness stand),"' McKitrick said. McKitrick sat at the prosecutor's table for the hearing while Graham looked straight at her and told her story. That was the beginning of what . some have called a remark, able change in Graham. ''She's gotten·a lot stronger since the first hearing," McKitrick said. "It's unusual for a woman to follow through like this. I'm really proud of her." . Earlier this month, Graham testified about the. events of Nov. I, 2005 .during the• felony domestic violence trial. She -told jurors that her husband punched her,-- causing an orbital fracture to her eye. That court proceeding ended in a mistrial after the jury could not reach a verdict, and shortly afterward Raymond Graham reached a plea agreement with prosecutors. He was sentenced in Gallia County Common Pleas Court this week to four years 'of community controL Judge D. . Dean Evans also issued an order for him to stay away from his wife and their three daughters. Violation of the · order, Evans warned, would mean time in prison. For victims of domestic violence, breaking the cycle is not easy. - Graham now believes that her cycle is broken and that she has a chance to start her life again. When she was in scbool, Graham had friends , competed in sports and had what she believed to be a bright future ahead of her,. she said. "Then I got married," she said. "My friends started · drifting away, I wasn't allowed to talk to my mom " Verbal and mental abuse soon turned physical, Graham said. During the sentencing hearing, she testified about how her life changed after getting married. "I remember you telling me On Monday, fitih to eighth grade students from all three school districts will be' brought to Eastern for a daylong l;mot camp.

BvJAMUSAHDI Perhaps the greatest revival : in Gallipolis history was the :one at Grace Methodi st ·Church that started in ~ December of 1884 and lasted :into February of 1885. Some : 609 people were won to the · ·cause of Christ in those meet: lngs. The revival came at a : !ime in the city's history : when Gallipolis was not : highly regarded. : For instance, in 1885, the : Jrontonian newspaper stated: : I'Gallipolis has·borne the rep-. :-utation for many years of · · being the wickedest town on :the Ohio River. It has educat. ed many gamblers and confidence men, and the courts of Lawrence County, have transacted considerable business with the graduates of its slums." Even the Rev. J.H. treighton, who had lived in Gallipolis, had referred to the city as a wicked city with as J;Dany houses of ill repute as it had saloons. . The revival, which changed Gallipollis, started in the fall · of 1885 when the pastor, W.H. Lewis, visited almost every home of the members of Grace church and asked that they enter into covenant . with him to P.ray for revivaL This led to an'increased interest in prayer meetiJJgs. Tbe actual revival meetings · started the first week in . December with Rev. Lewis conducting services that · week. The following week an evangelist, the Rev. J .S Bitler, came. According to a book on the revival, "Noise It Abroad" by . J.H. Creighton, ."A ,large banner with a printed invitation was unfurled near the public square. The city was literally sown with religious tracts and gospel · invitations, and the walls of the church were adorned with banners covered with Scripture quotations." Every service opened with 30 minutes of singing with many of the songs being new and "full of melody." On Dec. 31 , 1885 , a "Watch Night" service was held that lasted all through the dark into the light of the next morning. The first Saturday in January, a young people's meeting was held with 24 persons converted. It was Bitler's strategy to convert young people first. He believed that the young people's decisions to follow Christ would influence the older · ones. James Summerfield Bitler, then 32 years of age, had, previous to coming .to Gallipolis, held meetings in Corning, Columbus and Chillicothe. He had joined the Ohio Conference of the Methodist Church in 1878. . Revivals in 1885 were usually held in what was called the :'lecture room," which was in the Grace Church building which stood at Second and Cedar from 1875 to 1877 would have been the ground floor large room. It was felt by many Methodists, not just in Gallipolis, that revivals t~nded to attract all sorts of peopie, some of whom would kack up the carpet and soil the furniture, so revivals needed to be held downstairs in the lecture room.. Said Creighton somewhat sarcastically, "Revivals of religion are coase and vulgar, as compared with the ordinary, and almost ritualistic dress parade of a fashionable Sunday service; and the vandalism of marching the masses into this 'dim religious light' of the main audience room, is simply shocking." The audience room was the sanctuary, which then was on the second floor. Against considerable resistance, the pastor was able to get the_ revival moved · upstairs. One old codger was so dead set against it and certain that those ·"new revival songs" would shake the foudations so much that the sanctuary would ·collapse. And so to be able to be a martyr to his own stubborness, he moved a chair .every night directly under the sanctuary so that wheJ1, the floor did collapse on top of him, he could tell people as they carried him out, "I told you so." Needless to say the revival changed both Grace and Gallipolis. It was reported after the revival that there was only one place in the whole town where one can find a poiCer game. Of the 609 conversions, 416 decided to unite with Grace Church: In those days, persons were placed on probation - for six months after announcing their intention to join the church. Of the 416, three died in six months, six joined other churches, 29 were removed from consideration before ' the six months, 25 dropped out, 60 were continued on .probation and 33 were denied membership by the pastor. That . meant that 260 actually ~came members, thus pushing the church rolls from 372 to 63 2. After B-itler left Gallipolis, · he went to Circleville where the same great revival broke out.

RIO GRANDE - The University of Rio Grande/Rio Grande Community College celebrated the graduation of its first class of diagnostic 'medical sonography students during a special pinning ceremony on . campus on Wednesday, May 3. Rio Grande started the twoyear program during the 2004-05 school year. The fust graduating ·class received their pins on May 3 ceremony and their degrees during Rio Grande's commencement ceremony on May 6. The students earned their associate of applied science degrees in Diagnostic Medical Sonography.. "This first class of students was very hard working and very dedicated," said Lisa Thomas, director of. the diagnostic medical technology program at Rio Grande. Laura Lee, clinical coo!dinator for the diagnostic medical technology program, said that the first class of students was special in how they worked with the Rio Grande faculty and staff who were starting the program. "They were very willing to go with the flow,' Lee said. The students were excited to be involved in the pro-. gram, and Lee and Thomas were very happy with everything the students achieved during their two years on campus. Rio Grande started the program to meet a demand from students for training in _this field, and to meet a demand from area health care agencies that . need diagnostic medical. sonographers. Sonography is a growing field that is best recognized for the ultrasound equipment usee! by OBGYN physicians. Sonography can also be used in the medical field to study abdominal, vascular and cardiovascular problems. Along with the high demand for nurses in the area and around the country, there is also a very high demand . for trained sonographers. The Rio Grande program is train- · ing students for this challenging and rewarding field, and getting them started in a career with numerous job opportunities. "A couple our students have gotten jobs already;" Thomas said. io.terTUptiogl_your nlgbtsr If you are 18·to 64years ty sleeping 3 to 411mes a week you 1nay In a clinical reSearch study to !letermine the safety and eftifecilihless of an InvesUgalional medicallon. ~CASH 11111111, II Crlllll Cllllcll 216 Upper River Rd.

MOSES LAKE, Wash. Farmers and farm grQups ~eed to speak up soon about their labor needs before Congress enacts · sweeping trnmigration reform, U.S. Sen. Patty Murray said at a round table of agricultural interests . . . The Senate could begin ·debating legislation to reform immigration as early as next week, Murray said . . · The Washington Democrat visited with farmers and agricultural groups at Big. Bend Community · College on :Monday to discuss a variety of issues, including transportation , food labeling, rismg fuel prices and the looming 2007 budget. But it was immigration reform and concerns about a labor shortage 'that dominated the discussion. Last year, drought and the . reduced size of some crops enabled many growers to avert a labor shortage. But not so for everyone, ·said ·Mike Robinson, a Royal City .orchardist and general man:ager of Stemilt Agricultural ·Services. One farm needed 150 ·workers to harvest organic apples last year. The farm ."could never break 100," Robinson said, and the fruit ripened too long on the trees , Growers often don't feel theimpactofalaborshortage until tlley see how much fruit doesn't qualify for packing, · :he said. · . Already, 5,000 bins of ·Granny Smith 'apples have :been thrown away because the fruit wasn't ptcked in a timely fashion last year, said Jon Wyss, an analyst for Gebbers Farms in Brewster. Gebbers Farms and Stemilt represent two of the three largest apple growers in the United States, making labor a critical issue for the state's industry, he said. The U.S. House already passed a strict immigration bill that would force undocumented workers to leave the country and includes no provision for a gue'st-worker program, Murray said. A similar bill has lieen proposed in the Senate. Farmers have said any attempt · at immigration reform must include a guestworker program. a.,n 142 Blnelll 144 Nt!A*IINihef I 45 Rlvlr In ltltj 82AIIIIce 63 HMIID Cltll 147~81 85 Short IWim 88- R'tal 148 1!ltl MJwtty1SO Ollhe moon 151 Oregon'I ceplll 152 Hcrie 153 Toolhod wheell 1!54Ra B78NI ==dad 70 Unllld Malee~ 7211ood01 71 73 Conuah 1 74 Mlnii'IOI\ 78 Nit tU olllilpe ny Ieiss or expan ubllcatlon or om.la 85 88e.l ' lor lholl 89 llrlliah .a. 90 SUn:h lor IIIUipl1d 94 Jewllh IChollr LivESTOCK -REPORT ;:=:.aheep . 84 Relltf..!Lw S1Job 82~ ""*-«~ 72 73 tln!IP lived indoors, 10 years old .

And though Nintendo Co. hasn't released the cost of its upcoming Wii system, the company's consoles histori·cally have been less expensive than their rivals. Sony's PlayStation 2 debuted in 2000 at $299 but can be bought today for $130 after a rebate. "All of a sudden the $299 Xbox (360) looks like a bargain," Davison said.

But some experts believe that's unlikely to happen this time. With 2 million units aYailable worldwide at launch and another 2 million units by xear's end, PS3 demand still will likt;ly far outstrip supply. Tom Russo, editorial director of games for the G4 cable TV network, said the higher costs won't deter the hatdcore faithful who will gobble up the PS3 -whatever the price.

All too soon, Muniz hit a growth spurt. More time passed. Next thing you knew, he was Agent Cody Banks in a couple of movies.

Back then, Malcolm was a scrappy, pint-sized 11-year-old with a genius·IQ who was try' ing to mask his braininess and get thtough grade school under the guise of norinalcy. He was further challenged by his catch-as-catch-can home life: three non-genius · brothers; a non-genius father who resided in a zone of all-embracing detachment, and a fire-breath- .• ing mom who ran the household in a state of red alen, Malcolm's family wasn't actually dysfunctional, insisted series star Frankie Muniz.

Desp1te his health problems Wingett had lately stepped back into his role as a community'leader and the "unofficial chief executive officer of Syracuse." When asked to describe what Wingett gave back to the Syracu se community, Syracuse Community Center Board Member Bi!'! Winebrenner joked, "Oh my goodness, how much time have you got?" "He was a fine fellow and I'm not just saying that because he's gone," Winebrenner added. 'T d have said that while he was alive." Winebrenner said one thi ng he knew for sure was if Wingett hadn 't purchased' the Syracuse Grade School there would be no community center and the village would be without one of its assets . "He didn't have to do that ," Winebrenner said of Wingett's involvement in the old school turned community . center. " But, him being a bona fide citizen of Syracuse he saw where the school had possibilities .and how good things could happen . That was probably his thinking in buy)ng that building, renovating • it and turning it over to the tow n for a community center."

Although Syracuse Councilman Mike Jacks acknowledges that it has taken more than Wingett to get the pool repaired, he believes without Wingett 's involvement the lool would not be schedule .. to reopen this Memorial Day Weekend. Jacks went on to give a laundry list of community improvement projects that Wingett participated in including ra1sing donations to pay for a village fire truck, finding grants to pay for · paved roads and ·the new water system and providing village children with a place to play baskeiball, tennis and now swim.
