Rio's Paul Nicholson scored the first goa l just I :52 into the inatch when hi s shot, like Purcell 's, deflected off a Bethel defender and past goalkeeper Matt Carroll. Carroll made seven saves while Andy Moore stopped two, including a key save with 4: 14 left in the game, for the winners.

"He made mislakes and it cost us opportunities," wide receiver Santonio Holmes said of Smith. "But we have to forget about what happened in the past. We have him now, so we just .have to look forward ." Ohio State has scored 35 or more points in live games in a row, the first time that's happened since 1974. Smith directs an attack that seems to be in lockstep - the line has been protecting him and opening holes, tailback Antonio Pittman is over 1,100 rushing yards, and · wide-outs Holmes, Ted Ginn and Anthony Gonzalez are threats to score every time they touch the ball. Coach Jim Tressel did not aUow Smith to talk to reporters this week about the M1chigan game. After the win · over Northwestern, which put Ohio State in a position to clinch at least a share of the Big Ten title if it wins this week, Smith looked back fondly on last year-'s victory. "Against Michigan, every yard is golden," Smith said. "Every one yard is worth two, every two is. worth four." Smith also said, "I'm much more mature than I was ·a year ago.

Arpaio said there was no point to have Busch take th<il test because the preliminary results showell he wasn ' t intoxicated. Busch, who was wrapping up his contract !his year with Roush Racing, previously signed to drive for Penske Racing South beginning in 2006. On Satur<)ay, Roush team owner Jack Roush initially said he would take no action against the driver because "it's somebody else's problem now."

"He's a great scrambler, he's capable of making any _play, he's got a strong arm, he 's a great leader: ...

"We always say if you start with making good decisions, then usually those other things that we really need to happen have a good chance of coming true."

ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER A handyman$ guide to decks and other manmade disasters Today's Do-lt- Yourself Ptoject Is: How To Build a Deck. There 's nothing like adding a deck to transform an ordinary home into a home attached to a ma<> of inexpertly nailed wood. And just imagine the family fun you·' ll have this summer with a de ck' "Come on,. kids,,. you' II call to your children. "Let's go out on the deck and ha ve some fun!" "Shut UP," they'.ll gaily reply, because they are engrossed in a Sony PlayStation video game that they've been playi ng for II consecuti ve ~ccks. ''OK then!" you'll say, stepping out onto your new deck. "You kids are . just going to miss out on· all the AAIIIEEE." This is the noise you make when you pick up a splinter the size of · a harpoon . · Ye5, a deck wuld certainly be a great addition to your home. But if · yo u're like most people, you're re luctant to .tackle such an ambitious project , for fear that you lack the "know-how,'' or will sever an important limb. Well , you can stop worrying. For one thing, they are making amazing progress in the 'field of prosthetics. For another thing , building a deck is NOT as hard as you thin~' I' ve watched TV per- Dave Barry sonality Bob Vila do it many times, and · he is a regular "do-it-yourselfer" just, like you, except that he has know ledge, ski ll, an unlimited budget and a large staff of experts. So let's get started! Step one is to select a site for your deck. You should do thi s in accordance with the principles of "feng sind ," an ancient Chinese philosophy whose name means, literally, "new fad.'' Feng shui (pronounced " wang c.:hung " ) teaches us that where we locate our household items affects our happiness by controlling the tlow of "ch ' i." which is a life force that is always around us, everywhere, all the time. like Regis Philbin. You may be skepti cal, but feng sh ui is actually based on sol id astrological principles that have been scientifically verified by Shirley MacLaine and other leading Ca lifornians. These people pay feng shui consultants serious money to come to · their hou ses and iell them things like what direction their beds should be pointing. If you think I' m making thi s up, check out any feng shui publication , such as Feng Shui for Modern ("The World's Living Biggest Selling Feng Shui Magazine") which is filled' with useful tips, such as th is one: ''Keep your toilet seat down. to prevent ch'i being unnecessarily 'flushed away." " (You know how true this is if you've ever had to pay a plumber to fix a toilet clogged by a big glob of escaped ch' i.) My point is that, unless you wa·nt all your ch' i flowing onto your neighbor's driveway. you need to locate your deck in exactly ·the right place. In my experi ence, the ideal location for a deck. considering all factors, is: indoors. Just lay some boards on you r livingroom floor and tell everybody it's a deck. This way, you can enjoy your deck without go ing outdoors and turning yourself into essentia ll y a Dunkin· Donuts for mosquitoes. If you insist on having a traditio nal outdoor deck. follow these steps: I. Go outside and. wearing steel-tipped work boots, carefull y pace off an area the size of a deck. 2. Mark the corners by .driving stakes into the • ground, u sing a No. 6 Whacking Hammer. If you hear ·screaming, you have lawn vampires, and you should call your Realtor immediately. 3. Drive to a giant megawarehouse home-fixin's superstore that runs TV commercials wherein cheerful, knowledgeable employees help you find exactly what you need . Take beef jerky, as you will be wandering the aisles for days, because those commercials are a big pile of ch'i. You will need to purchase the following deck parts: beams, joists, posts, bevels, headers, footers, thrusters, barristers and 8,000 metric teet of galvani zed mahogany. 4. Nail these items together in the shape of a deck, as shown on the Bob Vila show. That 's all there is to it! Time !0 ·invite "the gang" over to enjoy some outdoor fun on your deck! IMPORTA NT SAFETY TIP: Send smaller, moreexpendable members of the gang out onto the deck before you try it. NIGHTTIME SAFETY TIP: Everybody should wear garlic.

Author Norman Mailer, who was interested in doing an Armstrong, biography, wrote that Armstrong answered questions "with his characteristic mixture of modesty and technical aJTogance, of apology and tight-lipped superiority." Maybe, Hansen suggests, it was that remoteness, that icewater-in-the-veins quality. that made Armstrong the perfect choice to be the first man on the moon. But those qualities also kept him from close family relationships. Hansen's book offers the most candid look yet at situations Armstrong had never discussed painful events, such as the death of hi s 2-year-old daughter, Karen, of brain cancer in 1962, his lack of panicipation while hi s sons were growing up and hi s divorce from his tirst wife, Janet, after 38 years. Hansen came to know Armstrong in a way the public hasn't seen. "He can be very soc iable, very engaging," Hansen said. "He can almost be the 'life of the party.

The team is compiled by the Ohio Valley Publishing sports staff representing the Gallipolis Daily Tribune , The Daily SenJinel an d Point Pleasant Register. . Haggerty, who spent most of the time at flanker in leading Gallia Academy to· an 8-2 record and playoff berth, hauled in 36 receptions for 656 yards and also had 65 rushe s for 490. He scored 14 total touchdowns, a dozen on offense and one each defensively and on special teams. · His numbers are all the more impressive considering he was the .focu s of defensive schemes week-in and week-out. His presence· on the field also helped his teammates excel, and he was the catalyst for one of the area's most feared offenses. Gallia Academy averaged 33 points and 339 yards of offense per game this season. It was the third all-time selection for Haggerty, who is the only player that can make that claim. He is also the first underclassman to be named POY in the three-year history of the team. There were four repeaters total from 2004: Haggerty, Eastern's Terry Durst, Travis Riffle of Point Pleasant and, Meigs' Jared Casey. Haggerty was one of five Blue Devils to make the team .

Wasting nothmg, they used the birds' feathers and bones for decoration, tools and ceremonial ·purposes. They held the wild turkey in such esteem that its image was etched into pottery and made into carvings. . Benjamin Franklin, one of our country's Founding Fathers. suggested that · the wild turkey be adopted as the national symbol for the newly formed United States of America. The proposal obviously did not electrify hi s compatriots, for today it's the bald eagle that proudly represents our nation. Yet. as the Buckeye State was cleared for towns and agricultural purposes, wild turkeys and other wildlife including elk, white-tailed deer, black bears and even timber wolves - lost their wOodland habitats. By 1904, nary a wild turkey could be heand gobbling in Ohio. Then i~ 1956, wildlife biolo- "toms," have a reddish head, while females - known as ·"hens"- feature a bluish head. In addition to gobbling, turkeys are knowo to have 28 different calls, which include: clucks, purrs, trills, croaks, whines, barks, and an alarm call known as a "putt." Although abundant, wild turkeys are elusive, and chances are you'll hear one before seeing it. To increase your \ldds, consider a trip to one of these designated "Watchable Wildlife" areas: Waterloo State Wildlife Area in Athens County, Woodbury State Wildlife Area in Coshocton County, Salt Fork State Wildlife Area in Guernsey Countr.. and Cooper Hollow State Wtldlife Area in Jackson County: Other excellent sites include: Hocking State Forest in Hocking Count7, Shawnee State Forest in Sctoto County, and Paint Creek State Park ih Highland County.

' Truthfully, Johnson wasn't really that close in 2003 when Matt Kenseth wrapped up his title a week before the finale .

With the fragran ce of Thanksgiving dinner soon to fill the autumn air, it 's a good time to ask what'makes the season's favored bird such a popular namesake for Ohio's waterways, roads and land formations in the state·> That's not so hard to understand if you look at the question from an early Ohioan 's point of view - or rather, if you hear it as they did. So abundant were wild turkeys in those days that settlers were likely to hear gobbling in nearly every neck of the woods. Given that prompting, it's . no wonder they chose gobbler-inspired n~mes for early Buckeye State maps. So there's Turkey Foot Corner in Ashtabula County, Turkey Creek Lake in Scioto County and Turkey Ridge Road in Ross County - not to mention several G'o bbler's knobs , ridge s and hill s throughout the state . Additionally, more than 30 waterways in Ohio were christened "turkeys." including Turkey Hole Run in Brown County and Turkey Broth Creek in Mahoning County. And these names stuck. even after the early 1900s when wild turkeys disappeared from the Ohio landscape. Fortunately; wild turkeys are once again strutting their sruff statewide, giving renewed meaning to these pioneer names. iunbap otimes ·ientinei . . Bv JENNA FRYER also gained national attention. The famous 39-point Beatty Buck was taken in Greene County in the fall of 2000. With a mck score of 304 6/8, it stands as the world's largest non-typical, white-tailed deer ever taken by a bow hunter. A typical white-tailed deer killed last fall in Warren County, known as the Jerman Buck, became an Ohio record with a score of 20 I 1/8. The white-tailed deer is the most popular game animal in Ohio, frequently pursued by generations of hunters. Deer hunting contributes an estimated $266 million to the state's economy each year and helps to support thousands of jobs. Venison is delicious and nutri" · tious meat, low in fat and cholesterol. It is the number one wild game served by hunters in Ohio. ' Deer hunters also contribute thousands of pounds of venison to organizations that help feed less-fortunate Ohioans through special programs.

He's not in the same position this year to race for the title. It's Stewart's to win or lose, and that. reality has Johnson, who is 52 points behind Stewart , secondguessing himself. Johnson 's onlv mistake of the Chase was in October at Talladega, where he was caught up in two different accidents. The second wreck ended his day early with a 31st-place finish that dropped him to fourth in the standings. Stewart finished second that day, and Johnson now wonders what he could have done differently. "I look at that and wish maybe we played the strategy that (Dale Jarrett) did where he sat at the back and staved out of trouble and then came through and was even able to win the race," Johnson satd. "We considered >t lot of things at Talladega and we felt like the best thing for our team was to race for the win and t>o be up front and stay out of trouble that way and tt dtdn' t really play out." Now Johnson, who badly wants a championship, fears he could end up as another Mark Martin - a driver who has famo.usly fallen short of a Cup title with four runner-up finishes. But instead of seeing the heartbreak in Martin's situation, Johnson chooses to look at Martin's competitiveness and the longevity of his career. At 46, Martin is sti II a con- . tender and realistically could fini sh second again this season if everything falls mto place for him on Sunday. "I look at Mark Martin and ... he's been competitive and has been lighting for champi onshtpR for really the majority of his career," Johnson said. "And is he 46. With that in mind, I still have a·Jot of really good years ahead of me to win championships. "This sport is so competitive, you don't know how long you're going to be able to ride certain v.aves. I don't think our wave has peaked . But we' ve been very close. We've been in the hunt.

ALLIPOLIS For more than 30 years, Holzer Home Care has been entering the homes of patients throughout Southeastern Ohio and Mason County, W.Va. , caring for those who need extra help around the house after an injury or illness has limited their lives in some way. November 'is National Home Care and Hospice and Palliative Care Month, and Holzer Home Care and Hospice is taking the month to recognize the employe_es and the many patients they serve. "The goal is to keep patients in their homes as long as possible," said Bethany Purkey, community relations coordinator for Holzer Home Care. "They're more comfortable in their homes and that's where they want to be ."

Holzer Hospice provides the best of care for palients who have months rather than years to the end of their life. Hospice focuses on comfort for each patient. . "The goal is to make the quality of life they have left as best as possible," Purkey said. "You just see how lhe patients take the employees in and make the.m pan of the family." Hospice provides nurses and care givers to care for each patient. Often limes, people will be referred too late and don 't get to utilize all that Hospice does and the treatment a patienl receives is more of symptom management and comfort care. Cancer is not a prerequisite to be in Hospice. Many other illnesses may require its services and services can be requested at the convenience of the patient.

Lice are parasites that bite into the scalp. This biting causes itching, which is one of the first signs of head lice. There can also be a tickling sensation of something moving in the hair, The most common site to find lice is at the neckline at the back of the head and behind the ears. Anyone can get lice, usually from head to head contact Lice can also be spread through the use of personal articles such as brushes, towels or pillows, and through contact With clothing like hats and coats.

They can range in color from tan to gray and can be darker in people with dark hair, The nits are attached to the hair and are usually found closer to the scalp, The nits will hatch in about a week if they remain in ,the hair, Nit combs are not always effective. It is best to remove any nits by hand. A child must be completel'y free of nits before returning to school, according to some school policies, Treatment is with a pediculicide, an over-the-counter medicated shampoo to kill the lice. Follow the directions carefully, and use an adequate amount of the product for longer hair, If lice are found moving 12 hours later, it may be necessary to try a different product The Centers for Disease Control advises not to use a conditioner or shampoo/conditioner before the treatment and not to wash the hair for 1-2 days after treat· ment Retreatment in 7-I 0 days is recommended, Applying mayonnaise liberally to the hair and covering with a shower cap for three hours is a method that some people have found effective; however, the nits are not killed and will still need to removed by hand. , Although this treatment may be effective, the Food and Drug Administration has not approved the_ U$1! of household products such as olive oil, petroleum jelly, or mayonnaise. NEVER try a home remedy like gasoline or' kerosene, and never use a garden insecticide. The Food and Drug Administration warns against th'e use of Lindane (Kwell) for children less than II 0 pounds. Some products are not recommended for children under 2 years · old because of toxic effects to their nervous systems.

Household sprays and fogging to kill lice are not recommended, Prevent reinfestation by avoiding head contact with others during play and in sports activities. Do not share personal items such as combs, hair brushes, towels, hats or scarves, Do not lie on pillows, beds, stuffed animals, or couches that have been in contact with a person who has had lice recently.

Gallia SWCD honorees FARM PageD2 Sunday, November 20, 2005 BY ROBERT W. PAWELEK OSU EXTENSION GALLIA COUNTY Unfortunately, 2005 is turning out to be an extremely difficult year financially for many crop producers in the Ohio Valley. For starters, yields will most likely be down from 2004. In addition to lower yields, a surge in·crude oil and natural gas prices has increased the cost of diesel and fertilizer; among other things. As a result of the current situation , ag lenders are closely scrutinizing their portfolios and trying to determine how this year's produc- · tion problems will impact ·loan repayment. As a producer, it is important to understand that lenders are fully aware Of the hardships facing agriculture. The finance community certainly has a "survival" interest in working with and preserving its agricultural client base. This mutually . dependent relationship is a two• way street and requires both producers and lenders work together. There are some key points for producers to consider as they enter the 200506 loan renewal season. • Communicate. The most · important thing a producer can do at the present time is communicate with his lender. Do not procrastinate. Di scussing potential or- existing financial problems is !;lest done early, rather than later. This provides your loan officer more time to plan, evalu- ate, and provide feedback. The loan renewal sea~on is extremely busy for agricultural lenders - particularly the first quarter of the calendar year- and this season will be both .busy and stressful . Youi loan portfolio and financial situation is one of many competing for attention and accurate analysis. Don 't· place your farming business at a disadvantage by waiting to secure credit for the 2006 crop. The sooner your financing is secured and in place, the sooner you can comfortably proceed with the decisions related to production, such as field work and purchasing inputs. • Make full disclosure. Providing up-Io-date and accurate financial infonnation to your lender is alway s important. Lenders base credit dec\sions largely on the informauon provtded by the bor, rower. The financial infonnation found in balance sheets and earnings statements is extremely useful in determining key financial ratios and indicators, business trends, strengths and weaknesses. In order for a producer to receive an honest and accurate assessment of his financial position, the information being 'ana.lyzed must be accurate. : This is not the first time in· history that times have been tough and profit margins thin in production agriculture. Veteran ag loan officers have seen it all and have a set of strategies for dealing with adverse conditions. Full financial disclosure can pro- vide your loan officer wi th the maximum number of options avai lable to you and your bu siness. Remember, your lender wants you to succeed and prosper as much as you do. • Be proac tive. Even if your loan officer hasn' t requested your financial information, be prepared. A good source of financial information is the balance sheet, income statement and statement of 'cash flows. . Prefe rably, these should be done on both a cash and accrual basis. Work wit\1 your accountant if necessary to assemble the information needed fo r these statements. Be sure to use reasonable values for asset's. Also, making debt and loan payment terms clear is helpful as welL As mentioned· in the previou s key point, every liability s.hould be listed even credit card debt. The bottom line is, start now assessi ng where your operation is, and where it is heading. What resources are available to help producers? The best reso~rce. available to anyone facing difficuli decisions is information. Have your accountant develop the necessary financial statements and go over them with him or her to better underStand your position. Also, having an informed lender will give you more options to consider. Remember, it is better.to communicate early with your banker should you anticipate any financial problems.

Independence tobacco grower Warren Richardson expects to put his master's degree in finance to good use this month . · Richardson, like a lot of other tobacco farmers. is trying to figure out if it'!>' worthwhile to keep raising the crop now that . the ·rules have changed. The 70-year-old federal government tobacco price support and production quota program has been replaced by a free market system. With the end of government-guaranteed prices for tobacco, most farmers now sell direct to tobacco companies under contract rather than at warehou se auction. As tobacco growers begin selling their harvest. it will be their frrst ·chance to check out the fi'nancial bottom line of the new world of tobacco farming. "The price I get wlll have a lot to do with whether I stay in tobacco or not," said Richardson. "If I get beaten up too badly, I'd just as soon let somebody else grow tobacco." For years, tobacco has been Kentucky's No. I cash crop. · The state is the nation's top producer of burley tobacco because the climate is especially conducive to growing and curing the leaf. Tobacco remains 'the state' s top crop, despite a big decline in production from last year to this year, when a lot of older farmers decided to retire as the government halted its price guarantees and began distributing buyout payments. "It is a different environment in the post-buyout era," said University of Kentucky tobacco economist Will SnelL "We 've seen production drop about 30 percent in Kentucky as farmers adjust to this new environment of not knowing what's going to happen without the safety net that was provided by the federal government tobacco program. "We're very much in an uncertain period." The future of Kentucky tobacco farming should become clearer as farmers sell their first crop directly to companies and begin to compare receipts with expenses. "Another 30 days should tell us much more aliout what's going to transpire," said Jerry Brown, Boone County Extension Service agriculture agent. "Anticipation is really starting to build because this is the first year under the new system. , " If things work out OK, farmers will continue to produce tobacco. If things don't work out, we will lose more tobacco farmers , because a lot 9f farlllers just grew tobacco this year to see how it worked out." That's what Richardson did. Like many farmers, he signed a contract earlier this year to sell tobacco to Philip Morris USA He's also going to take some tobacco to a warehouse in Maysville to find out how much it brings at auction. "I'm going to see which way I get the better deal," he said. Richardson said he used to raise "acres and acres and acres of tobacco - something in the 40,000 pound range." "Now, I've·cut back to less than an 11cre and only have about 3,000 pounds out because I'm just not sure what's going to happen." The Stephenson brothers of Petersburg just had their first inkling of what's going to happen under the new system - and they like it. Having contracted with Philip Morris, they sold 20,000 pounds of tobacco to the firm a few days ago and are ,preparing to sell another 60,000 pounds. "We averaged $1.~5 a pound on our first sale. and we're really satisfied," said Roy Stephenson, who farms with his brothers Butch, Rod and John. ''We're happy to be in the new system. We're tickled to death." While they received about $2 a pound last year under the government program, it cost them about 50 cents to 70 cents a pound to lease .tobacco quotas from quota holders. 'The cost to lease really put a hurt on us," said Stephenson. "We're making a little more money than last year because we don't have to lease ." Just as important to him is not having to go through the aggravation of leasing quota. . "The company says we can grow as much as we want," he said. " It saves a lot of hassle." Boone County tobacco farmer Danny Cupps likes the new system so much that he's expanding tobacco production. "I definitely feel there is a future in growing the crop," he said. 'T m banking on it. I'm investing in it." Moon walker Neil .Annstrong opens up for biography, As Sunday, November 20, 2oos . • ...••..
