Atguments againstprivatization >~ activist-in-residence" Dear Editor: · In last Wednesday's State of the Union address, Pres ident Bush tried to sell us a lemon, and I'm not buying it. He 's trying to dress up adsky Social Security privatization scheme which, in reality, would guarantee benefit cuts fo r the American people, and divert billions in taxpayer money to the President's Wall Street friends. · President Bush talks about Social Security as if the sky were fallirig I The facts are that Social Security can meet 100 per- . cent of its obligations for the next 37 years with no changes to the current system, according to the Social Security Administration itself. Every one agrees that there iu-e things we should do· to make Social Security stronger, but, the real Social Security crisis would 'be the president's own privatization plan - which would cut my benefits and unravel our nation's most successful anti-poverty program . . ·Rather than limit solutions to privatization, I. think the President should focus on solutions that don't involve taking money out of my pocket. For example, the president himself pays Social Security taxes on less than one quarter of his salary. That's right; tile law tOday exempts every penny of income over $90,000 from Social Security taxes. If we raised that ceiling io the president's salary, we wouldn't be having this conversation. The fact is, even the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office concluded that, privatization would require benefit cuts. And a new study by the Institute for America's Future found · that, for a typical 20-year-old now entering the workforce. privatization would mean $152,000 in benefits over the course of · their retirement. Without Social Security, almost half of today's 'seniors would live in poverty. It just doesn' t make sense to replace a guaranteed benefit with a guaranteed gamble. · Wake up, America! ·~unbap 'm:imes ~~enttnel Reader Services (740) 446-2342 Sentinel • PomeiO'f, OH (740) 992-2155 llrmunrr • Pt.

This Sunday the former teammates will be on the opposite side of the ~all when the play on the . grandest stage of them all Super Bowl XXXIX. Former Meigs High School standout Mike Bartrum of the Philadelphia Eagles, and. the New England Patriots Troy Brown will each be trying to win a world championship to their respective teams. Both players have played before in the Super Bowl. Both Bartrum and Brown were teammates on the 1995 New England Patriot team that lost Super Bowl XXXI to the Green Bay Packers. · That game was Banrum's ol)ly Super Bowl, while Brown's Patriot teams have won the Super Bowl two Qf the last three seasons. · The two players have remained friends since their days at Marshall, besides being teammates in New England for four seasons the two have joined effons .in a football camp and golf tournament. This May the two will host the -fourth annual Bartrum-Brown Football Camp in Huntington. weekend activities include a football camp on Saturday and a golf tournament on Sunday. Bartrum is now in his II th NFL season, with his fourth NFL team.Mike is widely reg~rded as the best long snapper in the league. "It's crazy, (I 0 years) just snapping the ball between my legs," the humble 1988 graduate of Marshall said from his in-season home in New Jersey. · Head Coach Andy Reid and his special team's coordinator John Harbaugh reflect his value to the team as long snapper. Reid says "he is the best in the business," while Harbaugh refers to him as "irreplaceable .'' His value as a long snapper was shown when starting tight end Chad Lewis was injured late in the NFC Championship game and will m.iss the Super Bowl. Both Mike and Lewis lobbied hard for the Eagles to sign former Eagles and close Bartrum friend Jeff Thomason for the game. " "I have full confidence in Mike Bartrum," Reid said after the championshi'p game. "The only hesitation I have is that he is also our Ion~ snapper. We just lost our back-up long snapper (Lewis), Michl!el l know .can play the position , l' m not warned about that part, but we can 't afford to get him hurt." "Chad and I both went to Andy and told him to sign Jeff," Bartrum said. "But I also told Andy that this is my game, against my former teammates and I want to play, he told me he wouldn ' t promise me anything, but he couldn't afford to get me hurt . I told Coach, I would go out and snap with a broken leg if I had to but I want to play and beat these gu)'s. " . Mike's perfection of snapping the ball has made the news reels through out the ,country. His skills were featured by the Philadelphia NBC affiliate in 2002 and in 2003, the feature also aired on ESPN and the Today Show. Mike toured the city snapping footballs at street signs from 20 yards away, into 12-inch wide mail slots, into a Burger King drive-up window, into a moving news vehicle, and into a basketball hoop from half court during one of Villanova's basketball practices. Mike was also selected the league's best long snapper in 2002 by a vote of NFL special team coaches, was also selected to USA Today's All Joe team and USA Today's Sports weekly's All Pro team. · Mike has had a career year as tight end for the Eagles, this past season . Heading into this season Bartrum had four career receptions, three of them going for touchdowns. This season alone Mike had five receptions for 45 yards and a Sc!Jre including three receptions for 27 yards against Cindnnati on Jan. 2. On Sept. 26 of this season he had a pair of catches for 18 yards Including a touchdown, all five receptions came from .All Pro quarterback Donavan McNabb. "I finally got the opportunity to play thi s season," Mike said la st week . I feel l can finally look back and say I helped this team . Long snapping is a very important part of the game, but sometimes you just don't fell like you are contributing to th.e team.'' · Mike has an elemental)' and special education degree from Marshall ; and has been know to show his teaching abilities in the locker room with the younger players. He established the Mike Bartrum Foundation to benefit the athletic department at Meigs High School and the · Huntington Boy's and Girl's Club. In November he opened the New Horizon's Childhood 'f'looto <'<Mttsy ofthe NFL Enrichment Center in God's 'NET on Mulberry Ave. in Pomeroy, New Horizon's a day care center for families between with children between the ages of three in five . Mike and hi s wife, the former Jennifer Taylor and their three boys Cody (6), Zachary (4) and Tyler (I) live in the off season on 119 acres of land no\ far from his alma mater of Meigs High Schpal. Where Mike was a three spol't all state perfonner, and Jennifer was a star athlete herself. Win or lose in Sunday's Super Bowl the people who know Mike Banrum, know he is already a champion . . JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Troy Brown is a throwback, a relic of another em. . . 'In other words, Gino Cappelletti's kind of guy: "That's the way I remember football bein~ for me," said Cappelletti, who played for the Patriots in the 1960s and ts now on their rad1o broadcast' team. "A lot of what l ·see in football today, it's hard to identify because they've changed the WilY they do things." . . · Indeed, Brown seems more suited for the era when players like Cappelletti and Chuck Bednarik rarely left the field. . Offense? Defense? Special teams? All of the above. . Brown has been a receiver for most of his 12-year career, but he willingly stepped across the line to hel~ the P~triots in the secon~. And when New England meets the Pluladelph1a Eagles m Sunday s Super Bowl, Brown's name will be all over the depth chart. He's.a backup at receiver, He's the No. 2 at right cornerback. He's the top punt returner. . And, oh yes, he's downright weUl)'. "There's a lot of information g\)ing through my head," Brown said. "For a few weeks there, I thought I w.as going crazy." . Playing both ways is largely unheard of in this era. A few play-. ers, like Deion Sanders. have had success on both sides of the line . But in this era of specialization, look for it to remain mostly a curiosity. a reminder of a bygone era. "I bring a little old-school flavor to the game." Brown said. The transition to defense began in training camp. when the coaches asked Brown to work at defensive back because of his famiJiarity with the passing routes. ' Even so, he didn t know most of tl:te defensive calls. To cope with the transition, secunda!)' coach Eric Mangini stood beside him on the practice field .- a real, live cheat sheet. . "I was like, 'Dude, l don't know what the calls mean,''' Brown said. "So he stood beside me the whole time I was covering guys. It was kind of a disaster.'' · · But the coaches clearly saw something they liked. When the secunda!)' lost starting cornerbacks Tyrone Poole and Ty Law to season-ending injuries, Brown had to fill the void. It was a strange sight - this receiver-lllriled-comerback who wears No. 80, dropping back into pass coverage. But he was a quick study, doing far more than just filling a place on the field. Working mainly ·as a nickel back in passing situations, Brown had three interceptions. broke up five passes and made 17 tackles. He played enough on the offensive side to make 17 catches for 184 yards, including a touchdown. He also returned 12 punts, averaging a team:high 6.9 yards. ·"He's a complete football player." Cappelletti said. "He has great instincts ori the field. the kind that coaches can't really teach you. Either you have it or you don't." As the Patriots go for their third Super Bowl title in fpur years. plenty of players- Tom Brady, Corey Dillon, Teddy Bruschi- have gonen more attention than Brown. But his teammates consider him one of their most valuable .players. "As a team player, Troy is right at the top of the list," Brady said. "There is no other guy who has the respect of his tearrm1ates like Troy.:· Best of luck to Mike Bartrmn & .

The Rebels (14-3) extended their current \"inning streak to 13 with a convincing :76-43 victory over Ohio Valley Christian . Friday at 1he University of Rio Grande.

The previous mark was 13-8, which was set last season. Afterward, SGHS coach Donnie Saunders was very pleased with his team's effort, particularly . in that opening stanza. . "We challenged them to .get off to a good start. We , ve been having great third and fourth quarters, but we· ve been a little · slow in starting out ball games this year," he said.

That 's hardly luck. Sure, they found Tom Brady 1n the sixth round of the 2000 draft. bullhey also held onto Brady by keeping four quarterbacks that season , the only team to do so. P1oh sa1d.

So slar receiver Troy Brown can become a nickel back_ Linebackers Willie McGinest, Tedy Bruschi and M1ke Vrabel can pop up anywhere on the field. Five receivers fit into lhe passing game, and Brady seems comfortable throwmg to any of them. · When Belichick sought a runnmg back to balance the offense, the Patriots traded for Corey Dillon. who was labeled a malconlent in Cmcmnali.

More likely, as Brady noted, those teammates will slay, "Anyone who plays on the Pats understands that our goal 1s a team goal." he said. "You make sacrifices to fit into a general structure of what the team is trying to accomplish." What the Patriots are trying to accomplish is- to equal lhe Cowboys' lhree titles in four seasons (199.2, '93 and '95) under far more difficult circumstances.

The bread . industry, hoping for a comeback after last year's low-carb fad , is telling cons~mers bread is goo_d for them - especially whole-grain bread. Bread makers learned from the lowcarb craze that they need to market ·themselves better. So, th~ee weeks after new government guidelines calling for three one•ounce servings of whole grains a 'day, the industry is starting a campaign touting health benefits. Industry officials say the trend is in · their favor. "There was an all-out assault on our industry; but people are coming back 10 bread and are realizing why they loved it in .the first place," said Lee Schwebel of Schwebel Baking ·co. in Youngstown , Ohio. "Try making a peanut butter and , jelly ~andwich without bread.,'' On Tuesday, the industry will launch a low-carb counterattack pointing to benefits of grains as part of an overall di et. The $3.5 mjllion Gr~ins for Life campaign will be announced in New York and Washington with billboa1'ds. posters and people dancing in bread costumes. "The message we're tryin g to get out is it's the calories, not the curbs," said Lori Sachau of ·the Wheat Foods Council in Colorado. Critics contend it was predictable that fickle Americans would eventually tire of the latest diet , but bread industry officials were surprised at' how 4uickly iow-carb seemed to fall out of favor. A survey by NPD Group, an independent marketing information co.mpany, found the number of American adults 'on any low-carb diet peaked at 9. 1 percent last Febrmuy and , dropped to 3.6 rercent by mid-November. "The path low ~carh · has taken is not unlike a lot of other stuff exce pt that it burst so fast. It went up ve.ry fast. Sometime' when thin gs go up fast. they come down ju st as fast.' ' said Stan Osman of Interstate Bakeries Corp., maker of Wonder Bread and Tw inkies. But that's not to say the nation ·is about to see a bread boom. Bread sales were nat even before the obsession with the Atkins, South Beac h ami other carblimiting diets, and the industry can't make up for the lost ground overnight. · While bread is still a staple for most RIO GRANDE - What does country music have to do with the history of war in America? According to a new book by historians from around the nation, country- quite a lot. Dr. Ivan Tribe, professor of history at the University of Rio Grande/Rio Grand e Community College, . is one of the experts who co ntributed a chapter to a new book on that topic. The book, "Country Musi c Goes to War," examines different wars and how they were retlected in country music and American culture. The volume was edited by Charles K. Wolfe, who teaches at Middle Tennessee State University. and James E. Akenson, who teaches at Tennessee Tech University. The book was published recently by the University Press of .Kentucky. . The book looks at country music as it related In the atomic bomb, World War II, communism, the Cold Wtrr, the Korean War, 9111. the two conflicts in the Persian Gulf, and otber periods of interest in American history. Tribe's chapter is titled "Purple Hcans, Heartbreak Ridge and Korean Mud: Pain, Patriotism and Faith in the 1950-53 'Police Action .... In his section, Tribe di scusses how. at that time. country musicians such as Hank Williams, .Hank Snow and Americans, they're not eating it as often as they used to, causing a slow decline that has been off!;et only by a growing population. On average, Americans ate 136 pounds of wheat flour in 2003, a drup of 10 pounds ,over a four-year . period , Sachau said. . In Portland , Stephen Lanzalotta opened his Italian 'bakery in 2000 with bread accounting for about 80 percent of sales. Business dipped in part because of low-.c arb diets. and bread now accounts for 20 percent of sales. Lanzulotta ·stayed in business by boosting his offerings of sandwicl)es and pastries and expanding his menu with breakfast and Sunday brunch. 'T m becoming more of a restaurateur than a baker. It 's wearing on me. From an ideological point of view, I don-'t enjoy cooking as much as baking," he said.

As farmers leave tobacco and move into new crops such as cucumbers, melons · and be,rries, the state is confronti~g , a cri sis: . It s\mply doesn t have enough honey bees to pollinate all those tlowering plants. "I feel that. if we don't do something now about (this) we may .be heading toward an aonculture cri sis in the state,;; said David Trirpy, the state's cooperative extension apiculturi st and assistant professor at North Carolina State University. In the late 1980s, the ·state · had some 180,000 managed bee colonies, each of whtch contained at least 30.000 bees . But over the past 20 years, th,e state' s healthy population of wild bees has been ravaged by mites. Now. there are about I00,000 managed ·bee colonies, and the state 's beekeepers last year had to turn down requests for . some I0.000 new ones. Farmers must re.ly on bees fron1 a dozen or so com mercia! beekeepers to pollinate their crops . The bees. are needed because without their tlower-to-llower tlights, farmers can 't get the maxi mum yield from the new crops, which now account for' $100 million every year, according to state agriculture officials. As bees vi sit flowers to collect necta~ and pollen, they transfer pollen grains from one Hower to another, . fertilizing them and boosting seed and fruit production. Bill Harrell is gradually moving out of tobacco, which doesn't need pollination to produce, and into cucumbers and melons. At one- time, the . Wilson County farm that his grandfather bought during the Depression had roughly 85 acres of leaf under cultivation . Last year, 1-!arrell grew just 38 acres of tobacco. And this year, he's planting 100 acres of cucumbers and some 60 acres of melons. Six years ago, he said, he could find plenty of bees to pollinate his flowering crops. ''Now · there just ain 't enough to go around ," Harrell said . "(Without) the bees to 'help us pollinate you 're up against the wall." . Jack Tapp. ·a retired sheriff's detective who · has run Busy Bee Apiaries in Chapel Hill since 1998, warns that startup costs are high ·and the payoff delayed in the bee bus mess. "You'll spend $200,000 with no forecast of making any profit for the nex;t two or three years, so you're not going to get_ ~any J?t:Ople JUmpmg mto It , he smd. North Carolina State University hopes a program it is st<frting will lure more people into the hobby. All aspects of. bee culti.vauon including breeding and production of honey, pollen and beeswax - generate $10 million annually for the state's economy. The school is providing 250 qualilled applicants with two hives of Russian honey bees and bee hives. Participants have to invest $50 to $150 for beekeeper protective clothing. smokers and additional h1ve equip: ment. The one-year program is being funded with a $164,000 grant from the, Golden LEAF ·Foundation, which administers · nioney receive,d by North Carolina from its settlement with cigarette manufacturers.
