After a victory at Darlington, Biffle feels like he's a contender again . ·By Monte Dutton NASCAR This Week DARLINGTON, S.C.- With his vic· tory in the Dodge Charger 500, Greg Biffle served notice that he .is again a prime contender for the Nextel Cup championship. CoJJpled with a fourthpl·ace finish a week earlier in Rich· mond, Va., Biffle has become the hottest driver in the sport and is well on his way to recovering from a slow start. Biffle, 36, is a. late bloomer who never reached NASCAR's top level until 2003. The native of Vancouver, Wash., won rookie-of-the-year awards in the Craftsman 'lruck Series in 1998 and the Busch Series in 2001. He went on to win championships in both series, the only driver ever to do so. , After finishing second to Tony Stewart in last year's Cup points race, Biffle's season began slowly. It wasn't because his No. 16 National Guard Ford was performing poorly. Biffle has led the most laps·four times al· ready this year. "We riever give up," said Biffle af· ter winning at Darlington Raceway. "We won the pole last week and finished fo)ll1h .... It's just exciting to .finally be back in victory lane." . Darlington.was also the site of one of Biffle's six 2005 'victories. Victories at NASCAR's toughest track don't come cheap. • . "This place never is easy," he said. "We worked on the car the whole night, and I kept the thing off the wall, which was really important, until about 15 or 20 (laps) to go. I got a little piece of the,wall coming off of (turn) two over there ... but it didn't hurt the car any and I kept getting it." Biffle withstood the late charge of Jeff Gordon, the active leader with six victories at the 1.366-mile, egg-shaped track. · Even though Gordon was closing in, Biffle said: "I knew he was going to have trouble. He was going to catch the lapped car (Ken Schrader) in the ~ 1. ;)0 • \ ol. ...J.O .

While they were delighted that the chair drew considerable interest- over 300 hits there were no bids. Factors discouraging a buy · focused on shipping the chair to a buy_er.

"We're going to hang in there until they're home," Cardone said. As for what comes after that, the group hopes to purchase a memorial brick from the Racine American Legion for the late Nick lhle, a former member of Enduring Freedom who passed away last year. The group will probably lay low for awhile after all its soldiers have come home, hoping, as most people do, that there are no other conflicts that send service men and women into harm's way.

Senator Chuck Hagel, a Republican frbm Nebraska, says the National Guard is not the right outfit to back up the Border Patrol on the Mexican border. So . my question is a simple one: The organization is called the NATIONAL GUARD, is it not? Aren't they supposed to guard us if need be? Well, need be is here. Right now there ·are· more than 100,000 illegal aliens imprisoned for committing felonies in the USA. The governmental cost of illegal immigration per year is north of $68 ~illion taxpayer dollars. While some companies are making money exploiting cheap illegal labor, legal workers, you and I, are paying fantastic sums of money because the federal government will not stop the ·flood of foreigners illegally entering the country. So finally President Bush does something, ordering a few thousand National Guardsmen to the border, and the chorus of naysayers begins their extremely annoying bray. · 825 Third Avenue • Galllpolla1 2_hlo (740) 446-2342 • FAX (740) 440-3008 www.mydattytrlbufle.com Ohio Valley Publishing Co.

' :TODAY ..IN HISTORY Bill O'Reilly , When I called Senator Hagel's office and asked what he would do in place of the National Guard, his flack told me the Senator wants to hire 2,500 more Border Patrol agents a year for the next six years. With all due respect, Hagel needs to get a calculator. Millions of illegal aliens are trying to hop over the border. A few more Border Patrol people are not going to stem that rising tide. So why doesn't Senator Hagel truly want to stop the invasion? I don't know. For Republicans like Hagel, law and order is usually a core issue. On the left, the focus is more clear.

With a target on his back , Riffle opened the first day of competition at the West Virginia State Track and Field meet with the event he has dominated all season. With the Point crowd anxiously .. Waiting to see if he could keep up his usual domination of the event, especially after having just , competed in the I 00-meter dash, he quickly eased the tension. With most of the competition jumping around 19 feet, Riffle opened with his first jump of more than 20 and continued to do muc;h of the same throughout the event, eventuall y coming out on top with a jump of 20-11, good enough for an individual state title. "It is awe'!lome, the hard thing about being number one is, sitting on top all year, that means it is yours to lose," said Riffle . "I was getting ready to go my last time and I knew that if he couldn't beat 20-11, I was in first and he jumped like 19 some-. thing, so I just kind of took my last one as a glory tined to find a gap through the though. ent~ring the final inning.'

Cory Shaffer, who reached on a fielder' s choice. moved into scoFing position 'on an ·error, which also put · Derek Young aboard. Cody Gerlach's groundout allowed ' Shaffer to score and moved Young over to third.' That set the table for senior power hitter Durst, who saw hi s potential game-tying .hit taken away after a ste llar snag by Bryan Osborne at second. Nick Howard led the Beaver Eastern offense with three singles . and two runs batted in. Gullett had two hits, including a triple. Zach Alexander, who was the winning pitcher, chipped in a single. Alexander worked · all seven innings: struggled ·at times with his control, but only surrendered two hits in earning the victory. Alexander walked five and hit three batters.

In 2004, there were 12.8 million registered boats and 676 boatingrelated fatalities. Speed is rarely a factor in boating-related fatalities, say watercraft officials.

Bv TH£ Ott to DN R COLUMBUS - It appears plenty of people are taking the "Fish Ohio" message to heart this spring, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Wildlife. Sales of fishing licenses 'were up in four major categories th_rough the end of April~ compared with the same period last year. Resident annual fishing license sales were up 10.6 per~ent; non-resident annual fishing license s rose 14.7 percent, three-day touri st fishing licenses grew by 23.4 percent, while one-day fishmg licenses reflected the greatest increase at 31.3 percent. . "It's still early in the 2006 fishing season, but these numbers. are ver)' encouraging," said Steven A. Gray, chief of 'the Divi sion of • Wildlife. The mild spring· weather and below average rainfall have combined to provide near-perfect fishing opportunities. Lakes, rivers and streams have been at normal levels and clear - conditions which are unusual during springtime in Ohi!J. In addition, the majority of March and April weekends were sunny and warm. · Headlining spring fishing opportunities this year is the 2003 year-class of walleyes in Lake Erie.

Swulay, May 21,' 2006 BHCC's Tinker first young woman to complete: operator's program ' STAFF REPORT NEWS@MYOAILYTRIBUNE.COM RIO GRANDE Jackson's Melissa "Melly" Tinker isn't afraid of jumping into new things. . · The soft-spoken · Buckeye , Hills Career Center senior became the fust female student to complete the school's Heavy Equipment Operator program last week. · The Heavy Equipment Operator Program at Buckeye Hills was started in 2004 as an extra incentive for students who perform well·in their academic and laboratory classes. Students take twoweek rotations out in the field learning to operate machinery such as skid steers, loaders, excavators, backhoes , rollers and bulldozers. Tinker was looking to try something different when she applied for ·the program in January. "I haven ' t done any of that," she said, "and I kinda wanted a change from Building Trades for awhile. I just wanted to try it." Out of the 30-plus students who applied, 12 students were chosen to participate in the program this spring. Tinker became the ,first and only young lady chosen after her application went through a revu~w by BHCC staff, administrators and class instructor Scot Parks. Joining the male-dominated operator program wasn't the first time Tinker had ventured into somelhing different. When she arrived on the Buckeye . Hills campus in August 2004, she ·enrolled in the Building Trades program. She turned out to be the only' female student in that program for both ye,ars she has been on campus. The possib1lity of be in~ the only girl in the class didn't · figure into Tinker's decision. * .

University of Rio Grande/Rio Grande Community College is cele· brating 25 Years of educating nurses and im-proving health care in southeast Ohio. The School of Nursi ng, · founded in 1980, is recognized for' its excellent pro· grams and outstanding graduates. By providing educational.opportunities for area residents, helping to fill the nursing shortage in the region and working to improve health care in the community, the Holzer School of Nursing has filled a very large rolce over the past 25 years, and the·· school is now gea'ring up for its next 25 years. The ftrst class was admit· ted into the Holzer School of Nursing at· Rio Grande in the 1980-81 school year. The nursing program grew out of the original Holzer Medical Center School of Nursin·g, which was a diploma-based hospital nursing program under the control of Holzer Medical Center in Gallipolis. ., Before closing the school at the hospital, Holzer worked with Rio Grande to set up the program on campus. · Dr. Janet M. Byers admin· istrator of the Holier School of Nursi ng, joined Rio Grande in January 1980 and . served as the founding dean for the Hol zer School of Nursing. Byers had also served as the director of nursing education at the Holzer Medical ,Center S.chool of Nursing from 1976 through 1979. "I wanted to continue to make a difference in nursing and the community. That is why I came io Rio Grande," Byers satd. "Today, I am very proud that we can celebrate 25 years of making a difference in nursing and health care itt southeast Ohio and the tri-state area. I am proud of our nursing faculty and staff who go out of their way to assist students and help them learn. I am also very proud of our graduates, not only from the associate degree-nursing program, but also from the bachelor;s degree in nursi ng program for registered nurses. Our graduates are always highly recruited for nursing jobs in the tri-state area." The Holzer School of Nursing has seen 1.21 0·oflts students receive associate's degrees and 148 receive bachelor's degrees. The school has changed its facilities several times so tllat it could improve and grow, and today even teaches programs over the Internet. · "The · Holzer School of Nursing has grown in the number of faculty and staff employed since 1980. The entering classes of students are also much larger in number," Byers said. "However, we have always attempted to maintain a small and interac· tive, yet very caring, learning environment in a university setting for the students. " · The second·person hired in the Holzer School of Nursing was Karen Jones, who was '' hired as a secretary in 1980 and has remained full-time ever smce. "Karen personally knows every former student and graduate of the School of Nursing ," Byers said. "She has been a very important asset of the Holzer School of Nursing for the past 25 years." Nursing Professor Dr. Margi Wheeler, joined the school in 1981, after teaching in the Holzer Medical Center School of Nur~ ing. "We had ·a small class ," Wheeler said about the first class tog() through the school. The first class was much smaller .than today's classes, and lbe students received· a ,lot of one-on-one attention, which is a quality that has stayed with · the school over the 25 years. Wheeler is prou.d of how the school has changed the lives of many of its students. 'T ve seen it happen," Wheeler said. Many students have changed their outlook on life, while others have changed their li ves · through the job opportu ni Iies that were open to them. "We've had a lot of success stories over the years," Wheeler said. ~he is able to see the impact of the nursing school whenever she sees Rio Grande graduates working at local health care facilities . Dr. Donna . Mitchell, chair of the Holzer School of Nursing, joined the nursing program in 19!!2 " I have obviously enjoyed it ·ever since," Mitchell said .. "It 's amazing how· much we have grown in 25 years . It's been exciting to watch and be a part of." One reason the school has been successful js because the faculty care about the students and work hard to help the program . improve; Mitchell said. The Hol zer School of Nursing has many students right out of high school. However, studenls of all ages and backgrounds (some even displaced coal miners) have c'hanged their careers and their lives in the nursing pro· gram. . • For many years, the School of Nursing has also offered ihe opportunity fCJr licensed practical nurses ·to become registered nurses withiri a one-year period through an advanced placement track. "You feel like you make a difference," .Mitchell said, "I can 't go into any health care facility in the region, or even in Columbus without· run·· ning into at least one of my former students.

Anyone who bought gold 25 years ago as a long-term investment and held it would have lost a lot of money if he or she sold today-not to mention the missed opportunities for capital gains in securities.

Sheriff Collie Entragian, played by R,on Perlman, is every desert traveler's worst nightmare: a small-town cop who pulls you over for no reason, plants a giant bag of pot in your trunk and th~n puts you and your spouse m the back seat of his patrol car for a one-way ride to town. "Then I'm going to kill you." adds Collie. Never mind'that the town is already littered with dead bodies, otherwise deserted and called Desperation. . An unlikely scenario in tl\e real world, but this is Stephen King's "Desperation," airing Tuesday at 8 p.m. EDT on ABC. Collie's visitors - played by Annabeth Gish and Henry Thomas - get an uneasy feeling; to say the least, as they arrive in the dusty village. Collie wasn't kidding. Wonder who's next? · Hint: "I asked Henry, 'How would you like to be the Janet Leigh of this movie?"' laughs director Mick Garris. A classic King tale of good vs. evil and based on his 1996 best-selling novel, the film's cast also includes Tom Skerritt, Steven Weber, Matt Frewer, Charles Durning and I5-year-old Shane Haboucha. It's Haboucha's character. led by the angelic ghost of his murdered sister, who leads his fellow Collie captives in a "good" fight against the evil · . sheriff. . "It's about their drive to keep living and to survive, ana he!~ one another get through 11 as a single unit," says the young actor. · Haboucha notes that, unlike the other actors in the film, he didn'Head King's book. 'The screenplay," also written by King, 'was scary enough." And much of that "scary" comes from Collie, who Perlman explains is "possessed by some' vel'}' unfinished business which had injustice, some spiritual corruption, at its core, and there's a price to be paid." Like many a good King story, the source of Collie's evil · goes unexplained until midway through the three-hour film. "That's King at his finest," Perlman says. "He lands you smack in the middle of a very · dramatic interaction and then explains it an hour aud a half later. Most writers give you the exposition up front; be just engages you. He places the audience in a situation where they're reacting, rather than ,observing. It's one of the reasons he's the genius that he is." Garris, a veteran of several other King collaborations for , television - inclu4ing ''The Stand" and 'The Shining" .praises King's skill iit.adapting ·- ·- - - - his·own work to the screen. · "His books are very cinematic. But books and films . are quite different animals books are internal and films are external, " he notes. "It's the internal workings of madness and horror that are difficult to depict cinematically, especially in a screenplay. But he's quite masterful at making the internal external." Perlman's character is wrought with terror and humor, another King trademark. "Collie's almost vaudevillian .in his desire to entertain himself and others, while being l!npredictable, volatile, explosive and dangerous," says Perlman. "It 's almost like .a dance of death, a ballet of violence." Adds Skerritt, "You can't play weird scenes like these without having a sense of 'humor, that offbeat sense of humor King has." But it's Perlman's delivery that pushes the combination over the top. "Henry and I had this sensa- . tion of being scared laughin~:·. says Gish of her scenes wtth Perlman. "You just didn't know what he was going to do next. When you see somebody going crazy in front of you, it's hysterically scary." , Adds Weber, "Ron understands the . genre, he knows how to scare people. He --''---·--;- knows how to suck 'em in, then pounce on them ." Another major character in the film is the town itself in this case.the adjacent cities of Bi sbee and Lowell in southeastern Arizona, substituting for the fictional Desperation, Nev. "The studio was originally telling us we had to· shoot in Cal'lada," explains executive producer Mark Sennet. "But we were able to convince the business leaders in Bisbee to give us enough breaks so that we could convince the studio to bring our $13 million to their town." The notably unbusy-looking Bisbee was the perfect representation for Desperation. Weber describes the town as having "little art · stores and artisan shops. It's this really ·cool place." Its most notable business, though, is still the ·historic Phelps Dodge Copper Queen, a giant open pit mme located between Bisbee and Lowell that figures heavily in the film 's climax. 'The reality of that place is what affects you," Skerritt says. Gish agrees. "Talk about character and energy and a sense of history. And certainly at two in 1he morning, when it's quiet and eerie and creepy, you don't have to look far to get the chills."

They can also admire great art, stroll medieval town squares and savor some of the world's best beer. The World Cup offers great tourism as well as sport, with the 12 host cities including perennial travel favorites Berlin, Cologne, Munich, Nuremberg and Hamburg. With as little as two or three spare hours before a game, visitors can take in Albrecht Duerer 's "Self-Portrait" in Munich's Aile Pinakothek art muse, urn - or · try a crisp-roasted schweinshaxe, or ham hock, with sauerkraut and a cold pilsner from a centUries-old local brewery. Visitors during the June 9-July 9 tournament w.on' t even need tick.ets to plug into the soccer excitement. Games wi II be shown live on big screens in public places suc h as Berlin's Potsdamer Platz and Munich's Olympic Park, and thousands of people are expected · · to take part in fan festivals around the country. · · .Berlin alone is expecting ~00,000 . oi/imight guests. but tourism authorities say there will be room. "Whoever comes will always find a hotel bed," promised Hanns Peter Nerger, head of Berlin's tourism marketing operation. Of course, one cim even forget the soccer. As with Athens and the 2004 Olympics, the week after the event ends might be a good time to visit, since some hotels are raisi ng hotel prices on game days. Here are leading attractions for quick visits in the top cities: • BERLIN: The museums clustered on the Museum Island in the · Mitte di strict are superb, led by the Pergamon Museum with its 2nd century B.C. altar from the Greek city of Pergamon, and the blue-tiled lshtar Gate built during the .reign of Nebuchadnezzar II around 575 B.C. · in ancient Babylon, now in' lraq.

THE FARM Some plants enjoy cool~ damp reprieve The past I 0 days of cool, damp weather have slowed the leaf growth of warm weather plants !'ike tomatoes, peppers and vi nca. Meanwhile, cool season plants like cabbage, broccoli. lenuce, lawns and pansies have enjoyed this reprieve fro m hot temperatures and have grown in size and maturity. Our soils are dry and the added moisture of this past week has been beneficial. So don't moan and groan, take each day as it comes and make the most of it ! ... 1 Keep mowing the lawn as this is ideal weather for grass to be growing. Remember to cut off only one third of the leaf blade at each mowing. Spring-blooming shrubs may be pruned bac k at this time to control their growth and to re-invigorate new stems from the base of the plant. Lilacs, forsythia, flowering quince, azalea and rhododendron may be pruned now. Evergreen shrubs like Japanese yew, arborvitae, juniper and hollies may be trimmed to contain their spring growth. Hold off appLying mulch Page 'D 2 until the soil warms up in earl y June. Remember a layer of mulch, one to two inches in depth, is· much bener than three to four inches of mulch. Mulch has several uses that include making weeding easier. reducing germination of new weed seed, cooling the plant 's roots and conserving soil moisture in the hot summer months. . Overll-generous applications o mulch may cause root death due .to poor root development, root rots and increased numbers of insects. ••• ·Several homeowners have called in concerning an invasive shrub that dies back each ·winter and sprouts up all over their yard from underground roots. If it has a stem with swollen nodes where the leaves are attached, it probably is the Japanese knotweed, or better known locally as Mexican bamboo. Botanically, this herbaceous perennial is called Polygonum cuspidatum. It grows four to eight feet tall and has a small whitish-green flower in large clusters in late summer. It grows by underground stems. called rhizomes. The aboveground stems grow a jointed stem like bamboo, hence it received the name Mexican bamboo: · It is quite invasive in our area. Control is difficult. Begi n by cutting · the plant back to the ground with a lawn mower. scythe, weed trimmer or bush-hog. Continue to cut weekly or at least every two weeks. This will slowly weaken the strength of the plant. In late summer spray with a glyphosate product (like Round-up®). The ~!ant will absorb the active mgredient and translocate the chemical into the root storage area of the plant, Whereby killing it all. If you attempt to dig it up, every piece of the underground rhizome needs to be harvested because each can grow quickly into another plant .. Smaller and younger plants are more susceptible to herbicides. · Remember that seeds were dropped in prior years, so contmue to monitor and watch an area for new seedlings. Do not compost the plant as it has a tendency to escape the compost pile and grow again. Residents not willing to·compromise in wind farm plan CHARLESTON , W.Va. (AP) - Residents opposed to a pl anned 124-turbine wind farm in southeastern West Vi rginia have rej ected the developer's proposal to scale back the project in an effon to address their concerns. 'This is not an appropriate area for an· industrial site," · said 'rootie Jones, who has attended state hearings on Beech Ridge Energy's application to build a wind fann in Greenbrier County. 'There are many other ways the county · · cc;mld utilize this land." (Hal Kneen is the Meigs County Agriculture and Natural Resources Ohio State Educator, University Extension.) GAHS teachers to serve as FFA district officers GALLIPOLIS - Gallia Academy High School's agricultural education teachers, Harold Benson and J arrod Ferguson, were recently elected by their peers to serve as officers for· District I 0 FFA teachers . Benson was elected as district chair and· Ferguson was elected district treasurer. Benson will preside over meetings and represent District I 0 on the State Delegate Council. The State Delegate Council governs and establishes policies for all a~cultural education teachers rn Ohio. .Ferguson will oversee all receipts and disbursements for District 10 FFA activities. Benson and Ferguson will each serve a two-year term. People opposed to the $300 million prefect say the 400foot-tall towers would spoil mountain views, hun tourism and decrease property values in the county. They also say the spinning turbines would make excessive noise and kill bats and birds. Beech Ridge Energy has offered to reduce the number of turbines and relocate some of them, said Dave Groberg, the project's director. "Throughout the process, we ' ve been open to co mpromise," Gro berg said. "We plan on owning arid operatmg wind turbi nes there for 20 years or more, and we plan to be an upstand ing neighbor." The state Public Service Commission has held hea rings in Lewi sburg and Charleston on the appl ication . The agency has until Aug. 28 to decide if B ~ec tt Ridge will be given a permit to build.

Unfortunately, Pertussis is highly contagious, spread through.respiratory droplets On October 26, 2005, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) began recommending the routine use of a single dose of Tdap to replace the next booster of the classic Td (which does not contain a pertussis component) for adolescents and adults, particularly for adults and adolescents with close contact to infants younger than 12 months of age. · ' • Heard reports from • Approved district partie· Elementary Principal Jody ipation in Project SOAR Howard 'and · High school with Battelle for Kids at a Principal Jon Lindner: cost of $3.50 per student. • 'Hired Pamela Boyd as a Approved resolutions substitute bus driver. pend- authorizing the superintening certification. · de;1t to hire staff and • Approved a resolution accept resignations between authonztng 2006-07 mem- board meetings through bershtp m· the Oh1o High May 3 1, 2007.
