W.Va.- Work is proceeding directly this week on reconstruction of the West Virginia~side tower which had to be demolished for bad concrete at the new PomeroyMason Bridge. "We have just finished pouring the first tower leg of the portion that we removed previously," sa,id Stephanie Filson, public information the Ohio officer for Department of Transportation District 10. "We will be pouring the other tower leg possibly today." ODOT initially estimated that the forced demolition of the West Virginia tower would set the project back by about three months . but Filson said crews are making up for lost time . '·It won't cause as much trouble as we originally expected," she said. "We've been able to get back on track with the project." An investigation is continuing into what went wrong with the pouring of the concrete on the lirst tower that caused it to ·fail strength tests after it dried . Filson said the concrete passed tests when it came from the. batch plant, but problems developed in the pouring.

Instead of stainedglass windows, worshipers looked up at empty shelve' that once held things such as aspirin , cough syrup and spray cans of shaving cream. The exterior wasn' t much either. It looked more like well, a vacant drug store than a church. There was a telephone number to call for information on healing services and prayers for the sick but anyone would have .trouble reaching the number. One of the digits in the number was mtsstng. Storefront churches have long been a familiar sight on the dingy, down-at-the-heels urban landscape. The invitation in the window promises salvation and a better life to all who enter or pass by. Never mind that some of the letters in the sign may be missing or that some of the bulbs may be burned out. You will be made to feel welcome in the storefront church ·as you may not feel welcome anywhere else in the world. There were only a few of us at the storefront church I was attending but we sa!)g George Plagenz and clapped our hands and listened to each other tell what Jesus had meant to us. Even I got up to make a testimony. ·'Praise the Lordi " they all said when I sat down. . A little girl got up and sang "God ne ver fails" without any accompaniment. Then came the prayers. Things the rest of us complain about - like riding the buses or hav ing to get up in the morning - these people found a reason to give thanks for. One woman who wa~ born in the South thanked the Lord for bringing her.to "this nice place where we can ride the buses." A rna~ gave thanks that "God woke me up this morning."

Such enthusiastic responsiveness would improve the performance of any preacher. But blank looks on the faces of congregants can kill many a preacher 's fervor. · When I was a parish minister. I would often take off my glasses when I preached. Because I am quite nearsighted, the congregation would then appear to be a ·big blur and I would imagine that · everybody had eager, expectant looks on their faces . People didn't know why but they said I always preached better with my glasses off! · I had never been to a church before that had an overseer who sat on the platform to maintain decorum. On this morning the overseer told the people that he saw "too much whispering, gumchewing and walking to the bathroom." I didn't notice any of those things. Actually, after hearing a young woman so!Qist sing "His Eye is On the Sparrow," I couldn't remember anything else. (George Plagenz is an ordained minister and veteran newsman based in Columbus, Ohio.) since . He is a parking lot attendant during the week. He never prepares his sermons in advance. "I get a revelation from God when I preach ," he said. This Sunday he spoke on "Personal Righteousness." Servi\:es on Sunday start about 9 in the morning and end about 2:30 or 3. Evening servi ces on Sundays, Wednesdays and Fridays start about 7 and end about 10 or 10:30. Nobody looks at a watch, but by 12:45 I had to go. I · had-been there since I0:30. I got up and made another short testimony and said I · would be back. "Praise the Lord," they all said again. · The pastor at another storefront church I attended washed cars during the week at a posh high·rise condominium .. A quiet, dignified man, he became transformed in the pulpit. His eyes danced and he became animated and agitated. A refrain ran through the sermon (which lasted an hour). "Do you hear me?" he would shout after he had made a point. The congregation would respond with a rollicking "Yesl" "Amen!" 2005 Local Briefs The Daily Sentinel • Page A5 Local Weather Grace Hysell Chaney Bloodmobile in Middleport RACINE - Leota Grace Chaney, 53, Racine died Wednesday Dec. 28, 2005 at the Ohio State University .

Friday, December 30, Gimme that storifront religion The Daily Sentinel Our main number Ia PageA4 It is often said that American politics today are more acrimonious than they have ever been . before. Certainly, from the standpoint of a contemporary observer, they seem · to be. The hatred that many Democrats feel toward George W. Bu sh is truly searing - quite the equal, it is only fair to say. of the hatred many Republican s felt for Bill Clinton. Still, when one reflests on the things the politicians of earlier decades said about each other, and even did to each other, it is possible to argue that what is going on today is only par for the course. Lincoln was denounced during the campaign of 1860 as "the lllinois baboon." Even earlier, John Quincy Adams had described Thomas Jefferson, elegantly but viciously, as " m1 affront to the moral order of the universe." Nor should we forget that, amid the emotions roused in the middle of the 19th century by the dispute over slavery, a Southern Congressman walked into the Senate chamber and bludgeoned Massachusetts Sen. Charles Sumner with a cane so thoroughly that Sumner never fully recovered from the beating. Verily, as Finley Peter Dunne's Mr. Dooley remarked.. to his . William Rusher friend Hennessey, "Politics ain ' t beanbag. " And yet there are signs that American politics are not only argua-bly uglier than they have ever been before, · but that things are about to get even worse. Specifically, it now seems clear that. if the Democrats capture the House of Representatives next year. a number of them fully . intend to launch impeachment proceedings against President Bush - whose term, be it remembered, won't expire until Janu ary 2009. The grounds are not yet entirely clear. but the Democrats ' recent fascination with acts of his (e.g., tapping the overseas phone calls of American citizens without a warrant) that allegedly constitute violations of law, appear aimed squarely in that direction. And various individual Democrats, some of whom (like Sen. John Kerry) hint that they were only joking, and some of whom don 't. ' have said openly that, if the Democrats capture the House, a motion to impeach Bush will be on the agenda. Many Democratic parti·sans will , of course, regard this as tit-for-tat: a condign repayment for . the Republicans ' impeachment of Clinton. But no two impeachments are alike, and · there are interesting differences between the cases of Clinton and Bush. Clinton had undeniably committed two felonies - perjury and obstruction of justice - in his desperaie efforts to conceal his sexual misconduct. But his supporters argued that these offenses didn't rise to the level of the ·"high Crimes and Mi sdemeanors" for which the Constitution authorizes impeachment. In the case of Bush, the mis· deeds of which he is accused seem more clearly of this type ; it is whether the~ were indeed crime>:lina wffether Bu sh in fact commttted them, that is disputed. Bear .in mind that, while it is the House 1hat has the po.wer to impeach a president. it is the Senate that would try him , and that could ·(by a two-thirds vote) remove him from office. Thus Clinton was impeached by the House, and tried by the Senate, but the vote to remove him failed when only ' 50 senators, instead of 67, ..voted to do so. In practical terms, therefore, much will depend on whether the Democrats capture not only the House but the Senate. But even if they don't, and . · have to settle for control of the House, you can bet that the bitterness against Bush is sufficient to guarantee a motion to impeach. It would take only one Democrat to introduce such a motion, and there will surely be dozens eager to do so. Whether they can muster enough support to pass it is another question, · ds ·on wh"tc h probabl y ·depen h t e good judgment of the House Democratic leadership. That, however, would be led by· Speaker Nancy Pelosi, (D-Calif.), who might well feel that a successful impeachment, even if followed by an unsuccessful trial in the Senate, would go far to restore the pre-Clinton balance between the parties. So American voters, cast- . ing · their ballots next November, will have to decide, among other things, just how much uglier they want American politics to get.

Jessica Davenport scored 19 points and Kim Wilburn sparked the defen se with four first-half steal s to lead No. 7 Ohio State to a 74-53 victory over th e Nittany Lion s on Thursday night. "It felt good to beat a team that's dominated our league,'' said Wilburn, who had nine points, five rebound s, sev.c n assi sts. four steals and no turnovers. " We ' re trying to show our identity, to make a statement in the Big Ten." Debbie Merri II and Marsci lla Packer each scored I 0 points for the Buckeyes (9- 1), who won by the largest margi n in the 40 meeting s with the Nittany Lwns. " We had a tough loss a couple of weeks ago (to No. 3 LSU) , so it 's nice to bounce back and show what we can do.'' Wilburn said. The Buckeyes avoided a repeat of last season's dis appointment. They were Ill and ranked No. 7 when they started Big Ten play with a 69-62 loss at Penn State, which was just 6-5 at the time. "It (loesn't matter who it is it's a conference game," Ohio State coach Jim Foster said. "They're a team with a lot of tradition, a lot of pride. It' s just good to start with a win. They've won their last six conference openers in a row. So all of the above is good." Kamela Gissendanner had 15 points and Adrienne SqUire II for the Nittany Lions (6-6), who won II of 15 previous games against Ohio State in Columbus. Coach Rene Portland is trying to bring an extremely young team around slowly. The growing pains were evident as they turned the ball over 24 times, were outrebounded 36-30 and didn't hit a 3-pointer (0 for 3). " It 's glaring statistic s." she said. "Obvtously, it's our turnovers some induced, some self-induced - and the reboundin g situation . We ' re a young team trying to survive the situation. '' The Bu ckeyes didn't waste any time in takin g control. Trailing 4-2 after the first 4 minutes, Ohio State went on an 11-0 run over the next neatly .4 1/2 mmutes. Merrill , >vho also had fjve ass ists and four rebounds, started the streak with a bucket inside off a lob pass from Davenport before minutes.

Stephanie Bianton then hit a 3-pointer from the right wing before Wilburn made a reverse layup to push th e lead to 134. The two tallest Buckeyes starters the 6-foot-5 Davenport and 6-1 Merrill - frequently traded passes for easy baskets. "Our chemistry is coming preny · well," along Davenport said. "If her player comes to double me and we' re communicating, it's nice to know she 's there and I can pass to her." Merrill, a tran sfer from Cincinnati playing her first season with the Buckeyes, said she had an easy job. ''Je ss is a big 'target," she said. "It 's not hard getting her the ball. " The Lions missed two shots and turne~ the ball over five times during their while Williamson, Norwell and a three-point play from Keefer helped give the Redmen a 38-21 advantage. Bethel was ice cold from the tield in lhe first half, shooting jmt 34 percent and was only a slightly better 38 percent for the game. But it snapped out of the funk and four straight points ignited a mini-mn and helped the Kansas school pull to within 40-3 1 by halftime.

Unfortunately for the Lady Raiders, that was about the only good news for them on Thursday in Jackson . The lronladies jumped in front by 16 points after one quarter, then clamped down defensively in the second half to take a convincing 66-23 girls basketball victory over visiting River Valley on Thursday. . Victoria Leali scored 20 points and backcourt mate Brittany Christian added I0 as Jackson won for the sev enth time in eight tries and ClNClNNATI '(AP)- Soon after he arrived from Southern California in 2003, quarterback Carson Palmer decided he had found the pertect place to settle down and spend a career. Now, . there's no reason to leave. The Cincinnati Bengals reworked and extended Palmer's contract on Thursday, givi~ themselves more salary cap nexibility imd a chance to keep their franchise quarterback through 2014. · They added six years to a deal that still had three to go, providing Palmer with a chance to make $118.75 million in salary and bonuses over the next nine years. He very well C' ,'Jld spend the rest of his career 111 stnpes. "Hopefully this is the last place I'll end up playing," Palmer said. "That's so rare in this,Ieague theSe days. It's so rare to see a person have a 5-, 8-, I0-, 12-year career in one place. And I feel very fortunate thllt it looks like that's going to be my future." . The Bengals spent millions of dollars and the better part of a dozen years trying to find the quarterback who would lead them out of one of the longest sluml?s in NFL history -· no winmng record from 1991 2004. The 1-fc i,man Troph} winner and No. I draft pick turned out to be the one. "Carson does not change," coach Marvin Lewis said. "That's been the best part of Carson Palmer. from the first time I met him throu~h all of the time spent with htm prior to the draft. "The way he handled himself through everything has been just great. That helps us with the rest of our football team, how they handle them- selves." The Bengals apl?roached Palmer's agent, Davtd Dunn, about an extension a few months ago. The reworked deal gives the team more salary cap room -· bonuses are prorated over the life of the contract for accounting purposes - and a chance to keep more veterans around. "It's a very wise move for a 1'' 1111 to IITap up the players that they have identified as critical to the franchise's suecess," Duhn said. "Once you wrap them up, it's far easier to plan." The Bengals were the only team in the NFL to return its offense intact this season. Receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh and running back Rudi ~ohnson got off~ea­ son extenswns, and recetver . Chad Johnson got a five-ye(lf extension near the end of the 2003 season. Several offensive linemen have contracts expiring in the · next two years. Palmer hopes the club uses the financial flexibility from his restructured deal to keep them around. "That was my main concern, something that could help us out in the future," Palmer said. "Hopefully we can ke~p those guys around. Hopefully some of those guys up front want to stick around for a while. "We know what we've got and we can build around this core group of guys." Under the reworked deal, Palmer will ~et a $15 million bonus- prud on Feb. 16and a base salary of $6.75 million next season. The Bengals owe him a $9 million option by Jan. 1, 2007. they'll have the option of letting the rest of the deal take effect or nullifying it at that time, but have to pay the same amount either way.
