(AP). A type of abortion banned under a new federal law would cause "severe and excruciating" pain to 20week-old fetuses, a medical expert on pain testified Tuesday. "I believe the fetus is conscious," said Dr. Kanwaljeet "Sonny" Anand, a pediatrician at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. He took the stand as a government witness in a trial challenging the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act. Under cross·examination, Anand acknowledged that he believes a less controversial abortion procedure, known as "dilation and evacuation," would · cause the sallie amount of pain to a fetus. An estimated 140,000 D&Es, the most common method of second-trimester abortion, take place in the United States annually. He also acknowledged there is no medical definition of "consciousness." The Partial-Birth A\:mrtion Ban Act, signed by President Bush in November, has not been enforced because judges in Lincoln, Neb., New York and San Francisco agreed to hear evidence in three simultaneous, non-jury tri· als on whether the ban violates the Constitution. Anand said Tuesday that fetuses show increased· heart rate, blood !low and hormone levels in response tp pain: 'The physiological responses have been very clearly studied," he said.' "The fetus cannot talk ... so this is the best evidence we can get." The Bush administration has argued that the procedure, refen-ed to · by opponents as ''partial-birth abortion," is "inhumane and g'ruesome" and causes the fetus to suffer pain. During the procedure, which doctors call "intact dilation and extraction" or D&X, a fetus is partially removed from the womb · and its skull is punctured. It is generally performed in the second trimester. Abortion rights advocates argue that it is sometimes the safest procedure for women, and that the law will endanger almost all · second-trimester abortions, or 10 percent of the nation's 1.3 million annual abortions. The law would be · the first substantial limitation on abortion since the Supreme Court legalized it 31 years ago in the landmark Roe v. Wade case. Challenges to . the ban were filed by several doctors being represented by the Center for Reproeuctive Rights, the National Abortion Federation and the Planned Parenthood Federation of America. The issue is expected to reach the U.S. Supreme Court. . ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER ANCHORAGE. Alaska Tom Waters saves all year to indulge in his only hobby: guessing when ice will melt.

Carpeting requires special care to keep it attractive. What can you do to ensure that vou r ru!!s will last and alway, be in ~opt imal shape'> First place runners and throw rugs in heavy traffic areas to prevent loose dirt from hecnmi ng embedded in the carpeting. Daily pick up litter off the tloor as it accumulates. If a· spill occurs. treat it as soon as possible. Carpet sweepers can be used for quick pickups, but they are not.meant for heavyduty cleaning. Electric hrooms are somewhat more effective. but are still consid-. ered only good fur light tasks. However, to really prevent din from being ground into the carpet, as well as to eliminate buildup of lint and dust. you will need to use a canister or upright vacuum cleaner. The canister comes with a variety of attachments that a_llow.s use on both carpeting and wood floors . The tankti'pe vacuum permits easy mobility and is especially good for bi- and tri-level IJames. The upright vacuum uses both suctioning and a beater brush for big area rugs or for rooms with wall-to\Vall carpeting. ; Heavy traffic areas will need to be vacuumed almost c!aily. More out-of-the·way Becky Baer sections could get by with once every week or two. To get out embedded dirt, go over the same area six or seven times, overlapping the strokes as you move from one area to another. From time to time. you will need to do more than just vacuum - you will need to shampob the carpeting. This may be done by ·having the carpets cleaned professionally, renting a rug shampooer (Be sure to follow the manufacturer 's instructions explicitly), or by applying one of the several spray foam products that are available on the market. If you select this option, lightly spray the foam ·over the carpeting. If it becomes too wet, the· backing may shri"\1< and the rug may discolor. Choose a cleaner that cuts grease, produces · a foam that suspends dirt parti· cles, then dries within a few hours, before it is to be vacu- umed again. · This approach should not.only brighten the rug , bLit it will also deodorize and leave a protective coat- . ing. Prior to shampooing , test I he cleanei· on an inconspicuous area to be certain it won·! harm the carpeting. Begin the procedure by vacuuming the carpet thoroughly to remove as much dirt as possi ble. Put plastic bags or squares of waxed paper under the legs of immovable furniture to prevent damage. Read and follow the directions on the product label, ·then work on onG small area at a time. The results of your · efforts should be an attractive and longer-lasting carpet.

John Kerry was in San Diego., Calif.. this "week. where motorists face the nation's highest pump prices. The presumptive Democrat presidential nominee told the locals. that the Bush administration was to blame for their $2.16 a gallon gasoline. "If the gas prices keep rising at the ·rate they're going now. Dick Cheney and George Bush are going to have to car pool to work," said Kerry. confirming that stand-up comedy is nm in his skill set. "Those aren't Exxon prices ," the Massachusetts senator contimled, "those are Halliburton prices." Kerry suggested that if he · were sitting in the Oval Office -- rather than Bush -America would be awash in cheap fuel. And he laid out his plan to ameliorate the present run -up in gas prices and· to prevent future price spikes. The Democratic Party standard-bearer said he would pressure the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) to increase production. although the last two Democrat presidents to try such a tactic-- Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton -- had little success. Kerry also proposes to suspend crude oil deliveries to the nation's Strategic Petroleum Reserve, ostensibly to increase the supply of oil available on the domestic market. Yet, as recently as 2000, the last time the United States experienced an oil shock. the Bay Stale lawmaker said releasing oil from the reserve "is not relevant'' so far as pump prices were concerned because Joseph Perkins . . "(l)t would take months for tlfe qil to get to the market." The Democratic presidential candidate says he would streamline the "patchwork" . of 300 state and local fuel regulations across the country that make it infeasible to shift gasoline from areas of the country where supplies are . higl_1er to areas where supplies are lower. But it's hard to imagine that most states and localities would blithely adapt. say, California's stringent. costly fu.el standards, which were put in place to improve the state's air quality. And there's no way California is. going to adapt the fuel standards of states · and localities that haven't had its problems with smog. Finally, Kerry says . he would mandate that onefifth of the nation's fuel supply consist of so-called "al ternative~~ and "renewable" fuels by 2020. But while cars of the future might be powered by methanol or .hydrogen or maybe cold fusion, good old-fashioned gasoline will remain the dominant automotive fuel for the foreseeable future. Kerry doesn't gel it. The reason Americans arc· faced with gasol ine price spikes every several years or so is not because of OPEC. not because of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, not because of the crazy quilt of Wednesday, Apri17, 2004 www .mydailysentinel.com Wednesday, AJ>ril 7, 2004 Obituaries · One.sure way-to lower gas prices The Daily Sentinel • Pagc t\4 state and local fuel regulations. not hecatJse alternati\'e and renewable fuels lw·, e beeo given short shrift. It's becau~e this country has· done far too little to increase domestic crude oi I production. In fact. oil production in the United States is near 50-year lows, according ro the · Energy 11nformation AdminiStration. 'V As recent! y as 1990. some 405,000 Ameri~<m workers were involved in exploration ana·producrion of oil and gas. By 2doo. their numbers had dropped to 293.000. In 1990. there were 657 working U.S. oil rigs. By 2000. there were only 153. Since 1992. some . 36 · U.S. oil refineries have b,·c n shuttered. And since llJ76, ·not one new relinery has been bui It. The decline in U.S. oil product ion coincides with the 1· · '! influence of the envi1 '"' I~C ntal left -- 'to whom the party of Kerry is beholden -- in shaping U.S. energy policy. Indeed. the United States is sitting on an untapped oil supply that could replm:e 30 years worth of U.S. oil imports from Saudi Arabia. the world's biggest oil producer, according to the Nalional Center for Policy Analysis. But because of hysterical opposition from activists, environmental Kerry and his fellow Democrats in Congress have absolutely refused to allow any oil development whatsoever in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in north eastern Alaska. Under energy legi slation approved by the House way back 111 2002. oil companies would have been allowed to drill for crude in the coastal plane or the refuge. The foot pri nl would h;11·e amounted 10 a mere 2.000 of the refuge\ 19.5 million acre,. To put that into per'pectivc. the refuge is larger than the combined land area of San Diego. Los Angeles, Onmge. Riverside. Imperial anu Ventura counties. Under th·e energy legislation. the· acreage opened to drilling woulu be no larger than the size of Los Angeles International Airport. That hardly would have amounted to a blight on the r~fuge. at least no more so tha~nhe houses. 'chools. roads and airsti·ips that were · already located "' the proposed drilling '" .:a. And .it hardly would hc~1 ,. posed a threat to the Sllllllllerti me ca lving ground of the refuge's caribou herd. as environme ntal activists so direly warned. At least. no more so than devel· opmeot of Alaoika's Prudoe Bay posed to the central Arctic .caribou her~. which grew more than six-folu over a two,decadc 'pan. Yet. candidate Kerry continues to oppose opening up the Arctic refuge to oil development. no matter how many billions of barrels of oil li e heneath its 19.5 mil- · lion acres. "The Un ited States can't drill its way out of this predicament." he said this week in San Diego. Well. as long as this nati(m consumes ~0 million barrels of oil a day. there's got to be ~ome drilling ~omewhere. We can lea1·e II to the OPEC nations. anJ re ly on the tender mer-t:ie~ _ uf the avaricious oil sheiks .
