A message from the director I hope all of you have been able to keep warm and surefooted through the snowy and icy days. It may be a little early to be putting away those ,)Y.inter clothes, but the signs of spring are definitely starting to appear! The staff, vnlunteers and Board of Trustees continue to be busy planning for the remainder of the year and the future. Their priority is to ensure that needs are met and top quality services are provided. After much consideration, the tough deci sion to discontinue Evening Meals at the Center has been made. A 56% reduction in attendance during the past five years has contributed to hi s decision. We wi ll begin having a Monthly dinner with entertainment. These events will be open to the public . In addition to providing an enjoyable evening out, the goal is to involve more people. especially familie s with children . and to efficiently use staff and volunteers. After looking at other Senior Centers who have adopted this monthly activity, it made a lot of se nse to use our resources to offer a quality monthly dinin g and entertainment experience. Thursday, March I 8th will be th e last day we will offer the Evening Meals. Thank~ to those who have participated in the past and we invite you and your family to join us for the Monthly Dinner.

So uthern. Local is currentl y looking to fill a band director/music teacher vacancy. During the interview process it has become evident that many potential candidates have reservations about accepting a position with low pay and high workload. The new SHS music teac her will be res ponsible for music in grades 2-7 as well as band in grades 5- 12 and choir for student s in 9- 12. The SHS Band Boosters have worked tire lessly to raise funds for new band uniforms. I truly believe that our band program serves as a positive ambassador for our school sysem. We aren't asking for any special treatment. We would simply like to see the band program given the same support (both with staffing and finances) as the athletic programs at our school. It is virtttally impossible for one teacher to teach nearly every student in the di strict. We are the only school district in this part of Ohio that has only one music teacher. Another music teacher in our di strict would allow so many opportunities for all students. A more realistic workload just might encourage quality candidates to come to our school sy stem . Southern Local has students with lots of potential. Lets let these students be able to show off their potentials by allowing them to participate in different activities. Monday, March 8, 2004 A. tale of two Kerrys What does John Kerry stand for? This is now the politkal parlor game of the election season upon us. Of course. what doesn't John Kerry stand for'' There may be something purely comic in the anecdote abou t the Kerry constituent who. in 199 1, received two letters from the Massachusetts senator. nine days apart, the firs t opposing the Gu lf War, the second supporting it. But this anecdote is as good a metaphor as any for Kerry's stands on significant tssues. In January. for example, he was castigating President Bush for his "exaggeration" of the terrorist threat -- a point on which John Edwards, hi s erstwhile ri val, saw fit to take him to task. In February, Kerry was still castigating Bush -- but this time for having mustered an inadequate response to the same terrorist threat . "I do not fault George Bush for doing too much in the war on terror," Kerry said. "I believe he's done too little. " More amazing than the poltcy shifts thai occur a month or days apart are the shifts that are little more than a jot of punctllation. Last fall , Kerry explained his decision to oppose the president's plan to fund the post-liberation reconstruction of Iraq: "I voted against that $87 billion in Washington yesterday," Kerry said. "But let me make it clear, I am for ' winning the war in Iraq." Translation: I Diana West don't want to support the stabi lization and rebuilding of Iraq, but I want to stabili ze and rebuild Iraq. Sometimes Kerry's position depends on who's listening. An Arab-American audience in Michigan last fall heard all abom how Israe l's security is just "another barrier to peace." As Kerry put it, "I know how disheartened Palestinians are by the Israeli gove rnment's dec ision to build a barrier off the Green Line .: cutting deep into Palestinian areas. We don't need another barrier to peace. Provocative and counterproductive measures only hann Israelis' security over the long tenn, increase the hardships to Palestinian people, and make the process of negotiating an eventual settlement that much harder." In the run-up to Super Tuesday -- which included a primary in notabl y Jewish New York -- Kerry spoke out of a different side of his mouth . "Israel's security fence is a legitimate act of selfdefense," he said. "No nation can stand by while its children are blown up at pizza parlors aml on buses . While President Bush is rightly discussing with Israel the exact route of the fence to mini mite the hardship it causes innocent Palestinians, Israel has a right and dut y to defend its citize ns. The fence only exists in response to the wave of terror attacks against Israe l. " Kerry would go on to tell the New York Daily News thai the olu "barrier to peace" routi ne was "a not very an fully draw n parag raph " that rellected "the 111sh of the campaign." Rush of the campaign. sure -- from one political audience lo another. One belief John Kerry hus held consistetitl y is multilateralism. (No wonder the only mention of "war" in hi s Super Tuesday speech -- bcsiues HoWARd Dean. Joh n EdWARds. and Republican reWARds to the rich -- con· cemed a "pledge to rejoin the com munity of nation s" to achieve "tinal victory in the war on terror." ) To John Kerry. alliances not blessed bv the United Nations-- such a~ the one that liberated 25 million Iraqis from Saddam Hussein's Baathist dictatorship -- don't rate, while unilaterali sm is burn-at-the-slake heresy. Or is it? Having heard Kerry's critique of the Bush admini stration's Haiti actions. the Daily News al so reported that Kerry said hi s administration would have give n the rebels a 4~ -hour ultimatum to come up with a peace ful agreement. Kerry wa~ "Other" i,e, " quo ted '- 1" '-a~ iug. "we're coming in ." Otherwi se \\ e' rl! comin g. in'' "I would inter1·cne wi th rhe international community. and absent an inkrnationa l force.

AIIDCIATID PRUI WRJT111 Jesus' life was about hope, not torture By the time Jesus was spillmg his frrst quart or two of blood, and the Roman torturers were still swinging their spiketipped whips for all they were worth, and the Jewish high priests were watching the horror with their cold little eyes, I was thinking, WW JD? What would Jesus do if he were with us now at the theater watching Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ"? He would leave, was my guess, not so much in anger as m exasperation and perhaps sorrow. He might have wondered why Gibson used his money and considerable stature to bring to life this section of the gospels. Why not the many passages about kindness and hope, which would seem a ITll,lre useful -- one might even s.ay more Christian - ~-ontribution to a world grappling with war and fear? I 1magined a puzzled Jesus tapping' Mel on the shoulder. "I lived a life of healing, helping those in need, teaching people to be generous and not to be afraid -- and this is the.part you show? Where's .the spiritual nourishment in watching two hours of human depJ1!vity?" Unlike my imagmed Jesus, I stayed through the entire movie, mostly because I had invited people to watch it with me: My friend, Lorna Stevens1 who is an artist, and biblical scholar Teresa Brown, a ~ fessor at the Church Divmity School of the Pacific in Berkeley, Calif. · "The fact that he was tortured, no matter how brutally, is not' what makes him Christ," Brown had said as we took our seats. ':Many people have been tortured just as brutally. If this .. Joan Ryan (movie) shows the torture and death without the resurrection, what's the point?'' At it turned out -- not to ruin the ending for those of you who haven't seen the movie or read the book •• there is about a 20-second clip of a reborn Jesus about to emerge from the crypt. That's the entirety of the reswrection: 'TWenty seconds of a fluttery white shroud and a close-up of Jesus' healed face. By focusing solely on the torture and oeath of Jesus without the context of his life or resurrection, "Passion" seems uncomfortably like a Christian version of a pagan sacrifice in which a human had to be · slaughlered so that the gods would let the rest survive. This person carried the burden for everyone. From a modem perspective, we look at ancient hwruin sacrifices as ~live and futile, yet Gibsons movie makes the sacrifice of Jesus at the behest of his God seeni no less primitive and futile. The ftlmmaker ,barely 11ints at the spiritual ~eft' behind Jesus' death, depic~ it so crudely and simplisti y as to be rehgiously useless. . The passion thus becomes not so much about what Jesus endured or why lie endured it. It is more aflout what was inflicted on him and by whom. Gibson returns time and again to shots of the Jewish high priest' at every step in Jesus' torture, even at one point showing the devil slipping in among them as they watch with cool satisfacuon the Roman guards ripping the flesh from Jesus' back. Gibson dwells on the animalistic glee with which the guands torment Jesus. The two groups represent the worst in humanity: the amoral authorities who will use any means to maintain power, and the lowlife brutes who revel in inflicting pain. · All three of us sank into chairs downstairs from the theater afterward w1d drank coffee. None of us could figure out what Gibson was hoping to accomplish with a movie about the sadism of Jesus' death, whether it is hi stori ci~ly accurate or not. "Absolute accumcy isn't the j)\lint," Stevens said, referring to Gibson's mandate as an artist. "Jt's whether the work gets at that thing inside, whether it speaks to people, connects on a visceritl level. Peop.le are hungry tor a religious movie. They're looking for a validation of religion, which is why they're going to this movie. But I think what they're despemtely seeking is Jesus' teachings, not this." Brown told us about school nuns who said the best thing you could do in life is die as a martyr, as Jesus did. She remembered one boy plunging into a "funk for weeks, disappointed by the slim prospects for martyrdom in their small West Virginia town. "I eventually realized that the best way to live was not by being martyred but by living every day as k sus lived." Brown said. "I outgrew the martyr thing. Mel Gibson apparently didn't." Loads of churcil grou ps arc buying blocks of seals to r the movie. Some iu·e tak ing youth group< even though the movie ts rated R. Perhaps they think if a movie is "religious" it must be gond. I can't imagine a more disturbing movie ll>r a young person whose fai.th is .still takmg shape. They might reasonably wonder. watc hm ~ "Passion,' what kind of sick God would put his son througil such unrelenting, sadistic !Ormen!'' And what, in the end. WRs accomplished'' There is still war, poveny, cruelty. cormption -' how " the world a better place tor it? Gibson's movie ofters no answers. "What is the lesson ilcrc''" Brown asked RS we headed outside, back to our jobs anu our lives. "How can you usc what you saw to make your life better?" Now, days later, I still don't know. I fled Catholicism years ago, but I held on to tile core beliefs of forgiveness. loving ot)S: another. helping the lea,; of my brothers and sbters. In this movie, made by a famously Catholic actor and di rector, I saw none of the hopeful. uplifting mysticism that infused the Catholic rituals I remember so well. Gibson's movie left me thinking not about the transcendence of Christ, but only about the C111elty of man. · Joan Ryan is a cohmmisrfur the San Fmncisco Cl11vnic/e.

Astros defeat Pirates in Clemens' Spring debute BRADENTON, Ra. (AP) - Roger Clemens admitted he was nervous when he took the mound for his first spring stm1 for hometown team. Clemens, who ended a brief retirement to pitch a 21st season, gave up two runs and five hits in two innings in a 15-8 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. "I tried to get it under way. walk out to the mound and say, 'Here we go again,"' Clemens said. "It's kind of a surreal feeling where l can't believe I'm walking out to the mound again and getting ready for a long season." Clemens ( 1-0) struck out one, walked none and threw 39 pitches, one shy of his allotment. He got the win when the Astros scored five runs off Kip Wells in the third inning to take a 6-2 lead. Jason Lane and Jason Alfaro hit three-run homers for the Astros; and Lance Berkman drove in two runs. Carlos Rivem was 2-for-5 with a homer and three RBI for the Pirates. Abraham Nunez, who had two hits against Clemens, and Jose Castillo were 3-for-3. Crai~ Wilson and Raul Mondesi hit back-to-back homers in the thtrd. _ The lirst five batters reached safely against Clemens and one of the two runs that scored in the inning was unearned because of Alfaro's error at third. Clel)lens threw a wild pitch to bring in the lirst run. The second scored on Rivera's RBI single. In the second inning, he had to work out of a two-on, one-out jam. . Clemens also helped himself out by picking Nunez off ftrst base after giving up a leadoff single in the first. · "! did a few things right," Clemens said. "My location was retty decent. I'm just trying to find out how much movement 've got and throw enough breaking balls to get that soreness in my elbow. The conditioning I did prior to my pitching made it feel like I was in the fourth or ftfth inning." : Clemens didn't come out of retirement and sign with the Astros until Jan. 12, but he doesn't think he's behind the other pitchers in camp. • "I don't feel like l have to play catch-up now," he said. "I'll continue to work each time out and gain a little arm strength." Nunez had singles off Clemens in the first and second innings. "If felt good to do it, especially against a guy like him," Nunez said. "He's a future Hall of Farner. Even though he's 41, he's still one of the ·good ones. He might not have had his best stuff, but he's still a competitive ~uy.

" Shortstop Derek Jeter hit one of New York's four homers but made a throwing error on Boston's first batter, Gabe Kapler, that led to three unearned runs in a four-run first.

Trammell is upset about how the Detroit Tigers have started spring training coming otl their AL-record 119-loss season . "'I feel more impatient than I did last year at any time," said Trammell, after the Cleveland Indians beat Detroit 18-10 Sunday. "I expect us to be better. I don't expect us to be in midseason form, but I didn 't expect us to be this bad." Casey Blake and Corey Smith each hit grand slams, Ronnie Belliard hit a three-run homer and Travis Hafner added a solo home run for the Indians, who have scored 42 runs in their first three exhibition games. "We deserve what we got," Trammell said. Smith, a first-round pick in 2000, also hit a three-run homer in Cleveland's 6-2 win over Detroit in a " B" game Sunday morning. "I've got nothing but good things to say about him and the way he's working on the total game," Indians manager Eric Wedge said. "He's been doing it the right way." Detroit has not. Since the Tigers beat Montreal in t h e i r Grapefruit League opener. they have lost t h r e e s traight. They are also 0-3 in " B" games. Trammell knows some - or most - keeping an eye on the Tigers' start may believe they will be awful a¥ain, despite adding Ivan Rodnguez and six other major leaguers during the offseason. "I know what people are thinking and we have to take that," Trammell said. "The easy thing to do is to get upset, but I am. "Last year is over and I want to be better. I'm not so inclined to sit there and take it. .. Trammell said he may have a team meeting Tuesday, the day ·or Detroit's next home game.

(AP) - The A-Rod circus rolled jnto town, thrilling fans and leaving the Boston Red Sox with still another loss to the New York Yarikees . A sign-waving, sellout crowd watched the Yankees win 11-7 on Sunday, 4 1/2 inonths after they beat the Red Sox in their last meeting in Game 7 of the AL championship series. Commemorative pins for the game sold for $5 .67, one spectator wore a shirt that said, "I don't brake for Yankee fans," and lines outside the ballpark were long !)ours before gametime. Alex Rodriguez had little impact on the much hyped spring training game - . a groundout and an infield single a~ainst the team he nearly jomed in December. "They're fun.

POMEROY - Breaking u 3-3 tie between Pomeroy Village Council members at Monday 's meeting , Muyor John Mus ser voted to give the new Assistant Police Chief Joe Kirby Jr. , a 50 cent pay raise and upgrade his health insurance to family coverage. "I am glad he got his raise," said Musser. "I am pl~ased that we can maintain the services of such a fine young officer. He will probably be with us for several more years now." In the weeks preceding this vote, council members fought back and forth against raising Kirby 's pay and upgrading his insurance citing cost concerns and fairness to other assistant department heads. At the final required reading of the ordi nance in February, council members voted 4-2 against the raise and insurance upgrade. Council President George Wright, who had previously voted against the ordinance at the last reading to allow council more time to study its options, changed his vote Monday which allowed the ordinance to be reconsidered. but created an even split on council. Council members Jim Sisson. Jackie Welker and Wright voted for the ordinance while council members Ruth Spaun, Todd Norton and Mary McAngus voted against it. Pomeroy Police · Chief Mark E.
