The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution READER'S Pagei\4.· VIEW God's ·law Show commandments,Jollow them Dear Editor: Wednesday. the Supreme Coun is s~heduled to hear argu. ments challenging the display of the Ten Commandments on public property.. Some charge the violation of the separation of church and state . How does God view this issue? The Ten Commandments are important to Him. God wrote the Decalogue Himself, with · His own finger. He told Israel to display these laws.and teach . them at every opportunity. . When Jesus came,· he affirmed the greatness of the Ten Commandments. He said he didn'.t come to destroy the Law, but to fulfill it When one young ruler asked Jesus how to have eternal life, He directed the man to the Ten Commandments. How many can you list? They seem easy enough to keep, but when interpreted by Jesus, we find out that we are guilty . law breakers. Does mc;>ney run our lives? We're breaking the first commandment. Today, we create other gods and worship them. We've replaced statues with screens. We blaspheme God's name. We don't truly rest every seyenth day. The elderly are not honored anymore. Our nation murders 1.5 million unborn children year. The church today is no different than . the rest of godless society with regard to adultery and pornog- . . raphy. Our country has a large percentage of the wealth of the world and we lock the gates while millions are starving and dying of disease outside our borders. So . Jesus says in essence, "S top breaking my Ten Commandments and stan living for Me." He took the punishment for our crimes on the cross. The penalty for idol worshipers, blasphemers, Sabbath breakers, parent abusers, mur- . · derers, adulterers, -thieves, liars and the like is death. The real issue is not the separation of church and state. These are not just religious laws, they are secular laws, too. What person wouldn't want to live in a society based on these laws? Displaying these co.mmandments isn 't keeping anyone from worshiping fre~ly or even forcing them to worship. The issue is the freedom of speech. Those who have freedom to express !,heir community's laws are then free to respond and worship as they choose. Will we "shoot the m·essenger" who says "You' ve broken . God's laws " or will we listen to God stop offending him, and start following his Son, Jesus? For the moment, the freedom is ours. MARGARET CARLSON vice president s. and two as deans to the paltry list of female honchos at Harvard. And does anyone really believe th at he isn't aggressively competing with all the top universities for female professors of physics and chemistry? Jn the same remarks that got him into trouble, he · reiterated how important it is to root out discrimina' tion and how unfair the mommy track .is .' He worried about employers who defy " legitimate family desires." This doe sn' t mean he didn't also overreach. II does mean he 's not a pig who deserves to be run out of town. For my money, what MIT prc;>fessor Nancy Hopkins said after ' the speech did more to hurt women than Summers' remarks .. Hopkins had been . in the room. "My heart was pounding and my breath was shallow," she said. "I just couldn't breathe because this kind of bias makes me physically ill." If she hadn ' t left, Hopkins sai d, she "would 've either blacked out or thrown up." For goodness' sake return of the vapors.

Called "Poe and Fannv" the book .was published -in April 2004. According to the revfewer, Ida Diehl, the book although somewhat semi-bio ~ graphical in nature, is fiction because thete is little substantive evidence of the love affair between Poe · and Osgood. To create the story of the love affair, May drew inferences from poems of both Poe and Mrs. Osgood, poems that are included for the reader in the appendix of the book. Although she is now largely forgotten, Fanny Osgood was a very popular female poet of the time. To begin her review. Diehl provided a brief biography of Poe up to the time of the opening of the novel in 1845 in New York. At · that time. . Poe was an established and . popular poet and story writer and was successful as a critic and literary magazine editor. His. famous · poem 'The · Raven" had just been published and he was in great demand for his recitations of the poem. However. in spite of these literary accomplishments, Poe was penniless. virtually homeless, and a chronic alco. holic unable to care for his very young wife Virginia Clem who suffered from tu~rculosis. Against this John May created the story of the love affair of Poe, whom he 'called Eddy, and Fanny Osgood. When "The Raven" was published, it had captured the · attention of Osgood. and she and Poe -began an association that lead to their scandalous affair. Fanny was already marrie(j, bur she was separated from her husband at the time. According to the author. their affair Jasied just that year, and finally Fanny was driven by gossip to tlee New York and she ended their liaison by returning to· ·her hushand. Some time afterward, she gave birth to a baby girl who lived only a few months. The question, which remains unanswered. was whether the child was Poe's. Poe also left New York, an outcast shunned by a literary society that included Horace Greeley . and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. His wife later succumbed to tuberculosis, and·Poe himself died a few years later in l849 at the age ol fony. Critics have, praised May's depiction of the social and literary life in New York in the years pre.ceding the <;::i vil War, although some .have been less kind to his storytelling. One reviewer said he took "dubious ·liberties in readin~ between the lines of Poe's .and Osgood's poetry." After the review, members answered roll call by naming their t'avorite poem or story written by Poe. The next meeting will be held at the Pomeroy Library with Dana Kessinger as hostess.

My main fault as a columnist- I thinkis spending too much time on sentence construction and not enough on deal clnalysis. I was reminded of this when .1 read a colleague's description of today's deal. Look only at the North-South hands. How would you plan the play in fOur spades after West leads a low heart and East puts up the queen? The writer queried South's jump .to four spades, but it doesn't look so bad to·me. North didn't have to have a Kquacky" fivecount {a hand with queens and jacks). And one receives a big bonus for bringing home a vulnerable game. Making a game-try rates primarily to help the .delenders. You seem to have four autOmatic losers: ·one 'spad9 and three clubs. There is no legitimate chance, but South won the first · trick witl'1 the heart ace an!J immediately returned !he haiJrt 10! No! surprisingly, West assumed his partner had the heart King, so he played low. But now declarer could cash the heart king and discard one ol dummy's clubs. That was a clever idea, ~ut does anything strike you? West's opening lead is awful! Against a suit contract, it iS clear-cut to start with the club King. Then, at trick one , East would signal enlhusiastically with the club eighl, and West would continue the suit The defenders would have no trouble laking their four winners. The author should have given West ace-. queen-third of clubs. Tlien lhe heart lead would have escaped criticism. Short strong side suits usuall"y maKe BARNEY AltonUon ..... Co.

David Terrell, the eighth pick in the 200 I draft, was released by the Chicago Bears as NFL teams prepared for the start of free agency Wednesday by paring veterans to get under the salary cap. Terrell was 'joined on the temporary unemployment line Monday by Cleveland safety Robert Griffith , 36year-old linebacker Roman Phifer of New England, and three Atlanta defensive players who have been starters much of their careers: Travi s Hall.

Atlanta cut defensive linemen Travis Hall and Jasper and safety Cory Hall, cutting $5 million from the team's salary cap. Travis Hall started 13 or more games six times in. I0 seasons with Atlanta .

WEATHER POMEROY - When it became apparent that Helen was unexpectedly givi ng birth to quadruplets on Friday night, her midwife Vicki Long immediately thought, " I need more help'' and "oh, you poor goat." No, Long was not insulting Helen because Helen is a pygmy·goat who was giving birth to her third litter of kids . . One to three kids per litter is normal but quadruplets are rare. Each one of Helen's four kids were born healthy and are now busy frolicking around their barn. . Long and neighbor Ken Cook raise the pygmy goats and currently have 34 of the good-natured animals in their shared barnyard on Chambers Road near Five PointS. "They all have their own personality and voice," said Long as she cuddled one of,Helen's kids . Pygmy goats originated in Africa and arrived in the United States around 1950. Besides being affectionate and keeping the grass cut on a farm, they are becoming popular for small children to raise as 4-H projects.

BY CHARLENE HOEFLICH HOEFLICH@MYDAILYSENTINEL POMEROY - At the ·end of each school day in Meigs County, there are undoubtedly dozens of children who return to homes wh.ere no adults await and they spend a couple of hours alone until a parent returns from work. They are· called "latchkey children" and it's estimated 1hat there ate ·14,3 million in America's•households. Most of the children probably have a snack, turn on the television, or sit down to play computer game~ to pass the time away until a pare,nt arrives. Few probably use that time to do their homew·ork or household chores since most need direction and there's nobody there to give any. In some areas, however,. there are after-school pro- grams, where children c.an spend a few hours in a constructive way - getting homework help, having a snack, getting some e~erci se. doing creative projects - all under the · supervision of tesponsible adults.
