I years ago. "(Sponsor) Chevron-Texaco wanted someone that everyone could relate to, that could go out and speak and sound intelligent and have a conversation with everyone from a plant worker to the main people at the corporate headquarters. The No. 1 thing is you've got to be able to drive a race car. You have to be able to win races and perform well, but at the same time you've got to be able to go and speak before a group of people. The racing side, the driving part, for me, is the easiest part. You love it and that's what you're good at. Traveling and speaking, I don't look forward to that part very much because it takes away from your focus of racing." McMurray has just the kind of appealing personality' that sponsors seek. He's taken advantage of on_track success to give him opportunities off the track. "I'd love to get to go do anything for MTV," he said. "Any time you get to do something outside of racing, that's that big, that's fun. It's so much differ· ent. I grew up watching MTV and CMT. To get to be a part of those awards shows that you've watched for so many years, that's cool. "Junior (Dale Earnhardt Jr.) was the only guy I've ever seen on any of those. I think maybe Jimmie Johnson did the CMT awards, so it's amazing the opportunities that come along being a race car driver. I know 10 years ago you never would have seen a race· car driver on one of these shows , so · it's pretty neat."

The lrammg was held at Red's Rollen Garage in BidwelL Garage owner Tammy Brabham also donated 15 vehicles for the class to practice on . Although hours of training are required each year for most emergency personnel, this training went above what many expected, Reed said. "This was definitely a learning experience for everyone." he said. "One of the guys told me he learned more in two days than he had in ten years of ex perience."

The first re-enactment was staged in 1987, then was discontinued for a time before being resumed on an annual basi s in 1991. According to Keith Ashley, who has been active with the re-enactors for many years, the volunteer infanlrymen decided to "sit out. a year" and then start back in 2005. "'Many of the volunteers are participating in events this year where they don'l have to be the host." said Ashley. noting that '·i; takes a lot of effort and hard work to put together a weekend event." Plans for the wreatll lay ing were . made al la st week's meeting of Bro<;> ksGrant Camp held al the Riverbend Arts Council headquarters. The ceremony will take pl~ce at 12:30 p.m. at the battle park in Portland . The Camp and the Maj .

It hurt our day a little bit, but the team battled back." NASCAR This Week's Monte Dutton gives his view : "Robby Gordon has to be looking forward to Sonoma . an·d one of the circuit's two road races. He won both last year. but this year has been one crisis after anoth· er. In fact. the entire Richard Childress Racing team -Gordon. Kev1n Harvick and now Dave Blaney - has had trouble getting it together.' McMurray has the · kind of personality sponsors dream of Sometimes a young driver can find success too soon. It's a good problem to have, though. Jamie McMurray, who turned 28 on June 3, recorded his first Cup victory in his, second career race at Lowe's Motor Speedway in Concord, N.C., on Oct. 13, 2002. He hasn't won since, but McMurray, who is fr.om Joplin, Mo., has finished in the top five nine times · and posted 23 top-10 finishes. Still, that second victory has been elusive forthe driver of the No. 42 Texaco/Havoline ·Dodge owned.by Chip Ganassi and Felix Sabates. "I feel like we've had a top-10 car every single week," said McMurray. "We had some trouble in a few races earlier . in the year, but we've just got to keep · doing what · we're doing." McMurray is one of many you ng drivers who have made their mark, taking advantage of unprecedented opportunities spurred by successful showings by Jimmie Johnson, Ryan Newmqn, Kasey Kahne and many others. "It seems like team owners >are more open now," said McMurray. "You don't have to be from a NASCAR family. I think most teams have scouts that search around and find good, young talent. It seenis like, right now, if you're falented and young and have got the skills and you can showcase that, they'll give you a chance.

Those apphcatwns can be tricky. Weeds can take as long as three months to germin.ate during the summer, gtvmg them time to watt out the damagtng effects of htgh water. Corn and soybean hybrids, on the other hand, are bred to germinate much faster. Soybean growers should not face as great a challenge controlling weeds when conditions dry. Since nearly 90 percent of all soybean acres are planted in Roundup Ready varieties. farmers have more flexibility in applying herbicides. In most cases producers can achieve satisfactory control by increasing the application rate. trees BY HAL KNEEN Dow Jones Industrials Producers could have their hands full with a handful of weeds this year. Weeds are likely to sprin~ up all over fields that weren t treated with herbicides before a wet weather paltem brought stonn after storm to southern Ohio earlier this month. Even fields treated with herbicides could become weed havens. Growers will have to act fast once fields ·dry in order to get a handle on the intrusive vegetation. Two factors are behind the weed threat, neither of which farmers could have foreseen . First of all, we've had an extended com and tobacco planting season because of wet weather in April and May. Second, many of our fields were not sprayed with a pre-emergence herbicide . Farmers exercised good jud~­ ment . and parked thetr sprayers on windy days . . Unfortunately, we 're now in a situation where we need to get herbicides applied to many of these fields m a reiatively short period of time, or we may sut!erJteld losses. Farmers shout walk their fields as soon as possible to size up weed problems. Co· op agronomists. and weedmanagement gmdes can ~elp producers determine the best weed-control strategy. Weed problems will be particularly severe in cornfields that haven't been sprayed or . that received excess rain after soil-applied herbicides were applied. Now that we have adequate heat and moisture, many of these fields will be growing very rapidly. Most post-emergence grass herbicides for use in corn should not be broadcast-applied . . when corn is at about the V6 or six-collar stage, or around 24 inches in height. Because corn was planted early in many counties, crops already are chest-high or . taller. In those fields, farmers should employ a different method for putting down soil-applied herbicides.

After winning an award at the Cannes Film Festival, Mr. Moore returned triumphantly to Hollywood and made this statement to reporters on June 9: 'We want the word out. Any attempts to libel me will ·be met by force. The most important thing we have is the truth on our side. If they persist in _telling lies, then I' II take them to .court.' 'Them' were critics who were questioning the accuracy of Moore's charges against the Bush administration. 'Truth' is rock solid information, which, apparently, Michael Moore was sure he possessed. But then a funny thing happened on the way to the Metro.plex . The 9-11 Commission findings clashed with Moore's thesis that the Busbies had done something dastardly immediately after the attack by letting a bunch of Saudis. including members of the Bin Laden family, fly out of the USA while everybody Bill O'Reilly else was grounded. Apparently. that is not true, at least according to the FBI and the Commissioners, none of whom were jurors at the Cannes Film Festival. So by June 20, Michael Moore ha&·evolved' a bit, as many in Hollywood tend to do. He said this on an ABC News program: '(The movie) is an op-ed piece. It's my opinion about . the last four years of the Bush administration. And that's what I call it. I' m not trying to pretend that this is some son of, you know, fair and balanced work of journalism.' No mention of truth this time but, as responsible columnists know, all op-ed pieces are supposed IQ be grounded in truth and facts should be cited in backing up one's op-ed opinion. Uh-oh. But just when Michael Moore was foundering in a sea of skepticism, New York Times critic A.O. Scott came to the rescue with this assessment of Moore's film: 'It might more accurately be said to resemble an editorial cartoon ... ' Paging Shrek! In the space of two weeks the Moore movie had gone from truth to opinion to cartoon, albeit an editorial one. But the hits just keep on comirig. Los Angeles Times film critic Kenneth Turan wrote this about 'Fahrenheit 91 II ·: 'It is propaganda, no doubt about it, but propaganda is most effective when it has elements of truth ... ' So we're back to the truth, now garnished with 'elements . I ha' ~ seen the first half of Michael Moore's movie, and here's the deal. It's slick propaganda that indicts President Bush for a variety of things using cut-and-paste video interspersed with the o.ginions of far left people like. Democratic Congressmen Jim McDermott and John Conyers. For me. the tirst 60 minutes were tediOus. but I have to interview guys like that every day. so I'm jaded. Any skilled filmmaker, and Moore is that, could fashion a movie making anY, American look like a pin" head. Th<~t's easy to do. Jus! get a bunch of video, some people who hate the guy. some factoids that may or may not be true. heat it up with sardonic rhetoric and serve. Presto, 'Fahrenheil 9/ll.' . So let's stop with the nonsense_. If you want to pay $9 to see Moore carve up the president, knock yourself out. But don 't be calling me up telling me about truth, oi · elements thereof. This i$ rank propaganda. and th~ American public is welcome. to it. It will not evolve any further. .

'200.20 ~unlla!' mtine!i -li!Prnttnrl Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis 27, 2004 These days, we take flying for granted. We walk aboard commercial airplanes, and although we don't understand how they work, we're confident that, thanks to the extremely sophisticated technology embodied in these complex machines, some teeny part, possibly in ihe toilet, will malfunction, and we will be delayed. But sometimes planes actually fly. And when they do, they become soaring monuments to the brave pioneers who made modern aviation ·possible - people like Wilbur and Orville Wright . Brothers, Amelia 'Air' Hart, and Earl . P. Flinch water, who developed the computer program that guarantees that no two passengers on any given flight ever pay the same fare. And the aviation pioneering goes on. On a recent Sunday afternoon on Biscayne Bay in Miami , I watched as 28 teams of courageous young people and here I am using the word 'courageous' in the sense of 'completely out of their minds' - competed in an event called 'Fiugtag.' Flugtag (pronounced 'tloog tog') is sponsored by Red Bull brand extreme energy beverage, which tastes the way Limp Bizkit sounds. I tried one, and it gave me a refreshing lift. I hope to be able to sleep again by Halloween . In Flugtag (which is German for either 'Flying Day' or 'Make Sure Dave Barry Everybody Signs a Liability Waiver') competitors build experimental, human-pow-. ered aircraft, then push them off a 30-foot-high platform and see how far they can tly. Competitors also get points for style, so they wear costumes arid perform little skits just before their flights. Before the competition, I examined the aircraft. which were duct-tape-intensive contraptions representing a wide range of aerodynamic concepts. One was a giant replica of Homer Simpson, lying on his back, his arms outstretched to form the wings. Another was shaped like an enormous pigeon. It was completely covered with feath ers, as was its t1ight team, a group of Orlando tirefighters dressed as baby pigeons. I asked the pigeon's designer, Corby Rusk, if he thought the pigeon would actually fly. 'Of course!' he said. 'It has feathers! The feathers will give it lift! Feathers fly, right?' Another member of the pigeon team proudly volunteered: 'For our skit, we have pressurized vomit.' 'That's our edge, right there,' said Rusk. Some of the entries looked vaguely like actual airplanes; others did not even have wings. One, entered by a team from England, was shaped like a giant bowler hat. My per. sonal favorite, called 'Joy of Birth,' was an enormous cow lying on her back. The cow team members were also dressed as cows. Their skit involved opening the cow's legs in a clinically gynecological manner and having a learn member slide down a ramp and shoot out the birth canal into the bay. 'Tasteful' does not begin to describe it. The competition was excellent. Virtually every flight went the same: The team would push its craft onto the 30-foot-high flight platform and be announced by an unnaturally enthusiastic MC who sounded as though his blood content was about 80 percent Red Bull. Then the team would do a brief, incomprehensi- · ble skit, which usually consisted of spasmodic dancing. Then, at the big moment, the team's designated pilot would climb · into the craft, and the other team members would push the craft toward the end of the platform, gammg speed, until the dramatic moment when the craft would go off the end, and in a triumph of human ingenuity · fall straight down into the bay. Yes. Virtually every craft displayed the aerodynamic characteristics of a crowbar. Some of them ' notably the ones that resembled real air-' planes - appeared to fall even faster than could be' explained by gravity alone; Several fell apart before. they even reached the plat• form edge, and just tumbled off in pieces. This went on for more than three hours, and yet it somehow remained riveting entertain: ment. You can have you~ Master's go lf tournament and your Super Bowl; give me overcaffeinrited . young people crashing in under-, engineered contraptions any day. The crowd also loved it. At one point, the MC was interviewing a team about to compete, and somebody noted that one of the· team members had a prosthetic leg. The MC turned to the crowd and shouted - I swear' I am not making thi s up 'Give it up, Miami , for tl)e prosthetic leg!' And Miami, not known as a generous town, did. Anyway, the next time you're on a plane, waiting for a toilet part , take a moment to reflect on the efforts of these bold modern-day aviation pioneers to advance the frontiers of human flight. Then 'took at the wings. If you see feathers, get off. (Dave Barrv is a lwmor colunmist foi· 'th e Miami Herald. Write to him c/o The Miatiti Herald, One Herald Plaza, Miami.

E ~ Sunday, June CLEVELAND (AP)- An edgy new ·advertising campaign to promote organ donalion hints that police ofticers should cut speeders some slack when they see a driver's license has the organ donor symbol. "Hey policeman," a Cleveland billboard calls out, an arrow pointing to a donor insignia on a young man's license, "give this guy a break." The advertisements by LifeBanc, the Clevelandbased orga·n procurement agency for 20 counties in northeast Ohio, are meant to attract · attention , a spokeswoman said. · "We wanted to get people thinking." said the agency\ Monica Heath. noting that I ,300 people in northeast Ohio are waiting for organs. Councilman Matthew Zone wasn't laughing. "I think it sends the wrong message to the average Joe citizen," said Zone, ·who vowed to complain about the billboard in hts ward to the owner. "Just because you participate in a unique program as precious as donating an organ doesn't mean (you) should be given preferential treatment," he said. Heath said the campaign includes 33 billboards in Cuyahoga County and 30second radio spots that wi II air through August. "Anecdotally, the response has been very positive," she said. A billboard at another Cleveland location points to a woman's weight listed on her driver's license. "A lie," it says. "But we'll forgive you," it adds, pointing to the donor insignia. Shirpaul McLaughlin, who works across from the billboard displaying the speeder's license, said she thinks the campaign is necessary to draw attention to an organ shortage. McLaughlin is a designated donor. "I think it's a good campaign." But. she said, gesturing across the street. "that one might be a bit misleading - like police are going to give you a break," she said. chuckling. Lt. Wayne Drummond. a Cleveland police spokesman, said he had no problem with rhe billboard, but people shouldn 't get the wrong idea. While patrol officers have discretion in ticket writing, ''in my experience, it's not typical to give someone .a break because they're an organ donor,'' he said. University Hospitals' Dr. Roslyn Yomtovian, LifeBanc board trustee, said she doesn't think being an organ donor should exempt one from traffic tickets. "No one is saying that's how it shou ld be. They're designed to get people 's attention," she said. "Organ donation is a tremendously difticult chal- . lenge.'' sa id Yomtovian. director of the hospital 's blood bank. "Any way the message can be delivered someone's death can be someone else's salvation that's important and that 's what they're trying to do." John Henry Ross Sr. Geneva Blake Sally J.

Ohio University trustees approve 9 percent tuition hike ATHENS (AP) - Ohio University trustees have approved a 9 percent tuition hike for most students, blaming dwindling state support. For the school yeai that be!!ins in the t:'lll, Ohio . fresho . men, sophomores and JUmors on the Athens campus will pay $7,770. Seniors will pay $7,404. It will cost $17,734 per year for non-resident freshmen, sophomores and juniors, while seniors will pay $15,396. The increase will be 8 percent for College of Osteop~thic Medicine students and 6 percent for students on the university's regional campuses except Ohio University Southern Campus in Ironton, where the increase will be 9 percent. . "To lessen the load on students and their parents, the university has further focused its commitment to being a good steward of its resources and has sought cost-savings wherever possible, without compromising the universi- ty's mission of providing a quality educational experience to each student,'' university President Robert Glidden said in a news release.

BY RONAW BWM Associated Press PHILADELPHIA - With little fanfare, major league baseball and its players have banned the use of andro, the steroidlike substance made famous by Mark McGwire when he hit 70 home runs m 1998. ' nie ban, which began this season, was never announced by the 'commis~ioner"s office or the players assocwtton. Bob DuPuy, baseball 's chi<:f operating officer, referred to 11 Friday during a panel dtscussion at the annual meeting of the Assoc iated Press Sports Editors. "I think it's a good thing," Yankees pitcher Mike Mussina said later in the day in New York. "It's still one of many . things to be done." The Food and Drug Administration banned the sale of androstenedione as of April 12. Baseball's decision, confirmed by management lawyer Frank Coonelly arid union lawyer Mtchael Wemer. took dfect the same day and means players who test positive for andro face penalttes. including suspension,; after two positive tests. ''Baseball has made key progress on several points," DuPuy satd, defendmg the sport's drug policy, which has been criticized by many m the Olympic movement as being too lax. Coonelly and Weiner said that based on the FDA decision and a study conducted by Harvard in 1999 that was financed by baseball, the union and management con. eluded andro acted like an androgenic anabolic steroid and should be added to the sport's list of banned substances. Andro is used by the body l!i make testosterone. Congress 1s considering legislation that would designate andro and more than two dozen other steroidlike supplements as controlled substances - making them available by prescri!J· lion only under certrun conditions. In survey tests for steroids last year, 5-to-7 .percent of samples were posmve, tnggering testing with penalties this · year. A first positive test would result in treatment and a sec-.' ond in a 15-day suspension or fine of up to $10.000. The length of suspensions would increase to 25 days for a thml positive test. 50 days f~r. a fourth and one year for a htth. These suspensions also would be without pay. Yankees outfielder Gary Sheftleld. among 'the players who testilied before a federal grand jury in California investigating illegal steroid disCribution, was not aware of the decision. . "I think it's a good move. but I thought it was already done." said the New York Mets' Todd Zeile. "I thou~ht they had done it the year alter Mark McGwire in 1998.'' McGwire stopped taking andro the following year, saying he did not want kids to follow his lead. . "When they were making the big stink about McGwtre. I didn't see what the big deal was," Baltimore player representative Jay Gibbons said. "You have to ban it now. Obviously. there's some concern if they took it off the shelves." · Also appearing on the panel were Dr. Gary Wadler. a member of the World Anti-Doping Agency's medical research committee; former Pittsburgh Steeler Steve Courson. who has admitted using steroids; and Steve Holman, a former middle-distance runner who is an athlete ambassador for the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency. · Courson referred to the investigation of BALCO. the California lab at the center of the federal probe.

"Call us for the best deals and �WEEKEND .iunbap limti ·6tnttnel Jeff Gordon wins· pole with hectic lap BY MIKE HARRIS Associated Press SONOMA, Calif. - Jeff Gordon flung his Chevrolet through the twisting turns at Infmeon Raceway, driving through the dirt, bouncing across the washboard-like curbs and .. nearly bouncing off a concrete wall coming off the fmal tum Friday. "We're on a mission." Gordon said after winning the jlole for Sunday's NASCAR's Nextel Cup race with a record-breaking lap on the 1.99mile, 10-tum circuit. "We're not happy with the way things have been going for us lately and all we can do is attack. attack, attack." . Gordon took his second pole in a row, third of the season and 49th of his career with a time of 1:15.968, breaking the record of 1:16.522 set last year by road-racing specialist Boris Said Gordon's speed was 94.303 mph. Gordon chalked up the record. to the newly repaved track and a new tire from Goodyear. He was surprised nobody was able to beat a lap he acknowledged wasn 'I very pretty. "I ft>lt like I left the door wide open for some of those guys to put us back a few spots," he said. Gordon was the lOth of 42 drivers who made . qualifying attempts for the Dodge/Save Mart 350. "I ~ot off the track a little bit over there in tum . two,' Gordon said. "I can't seem to get away from that spot on the racetrack. That's the same thing we did last year, just not quiie as far off the track." NASCAR 's leadirtg road race winner with seven victorie·s has won three times here twice from the pole. Rusty Wallace and Kun Busch also were quicker than Said's record, but couldn't match Gordon. .· Wallace, driving a Dodge, was disappointed afietrunning a lap of I : 16.072. "When I saw (Gordon) · go off course over there, I thought I could beat that," WaUace said. "I thought I threw a pole away with that one. I dido 't have any problem, but !looked down and thought I had the emergency brake on. I just thought the car.had a lot more in it." Busch's Ford got around the course in 1: !6.333. He said his team's decision to qualify on slightly used rather than new tires probably made the difference. "It's a 9uestion where we were in a Catch-22," Busch said. "Do we go conservative or do we go for the wie? . "I saw Gordon make his mistake and it opened ·the door up, but I knew that we just weren'tquite good enough because we went out on scuffed tires instead of stickers." · Gordon , waited nervously for other conienders, including Said, defending race winner Robby Gordon, Ricky Rudd and Tony Stewart 1):> take their shot. Associated Press Road race welcome change for Gordon :· · BY MIKE HARRIS Associated Press • SONOMA, Calif. - Robby figured this was the perfect place to test his carlnfineon Raceway, site of Sunday's NASCAR race on a road course in scenic wine~wing country. . Gordon dominated and won tast year's Dodge/Save Mart 350 on the same 1.99-mile, 10fllrn- ·circuit, then won in August at Watkins Glen, N.Y. : "We are pretty confident we haye the . road course game liialed in, but there is always room for . improvement," Oordon said. ; "Some people asked me why we were going out there to test, but it just made sense," he said. ~Practice makes perfect, right? flus, we work all year long surning left, and to get one of Otese 3,400-pound stock cars to turn right ts completely different and it also JUst helped ine get back into the shifting groove." · : Gordon said his Richard fhildress Racing team concentrated on gear boxes and transmissions while using one of his bandfuJ. of official NASCAR Nextel Cup tests. : Gordon also felt out the newly paved track that is expected to yield a qualifying record on Friday. "We have a good baseline lhat won both races last year to fall back on," he said. "We are just trying to improve from lhat, and you always have to keep improving in this sport. The minute you let up, a bunch of them will pass you real quick because it is just that 1:0mpetitive." : A win at lnfmeon would be a tiig boost for Gordon and his tlo. 31 Chevrolet team. He !oes into the race 20th in the ~ordon I Cup standings and, more important, 293 points out of I Oth place and 66!; behind series leader Jimmie Johnson. With NASCAR's new "Chase for the Championship," the top I 0 and any other drivers' within 400 points of the leader afte.r 26 races will get have the opportunity to race for the title over the ftnal 10 events. Sunday's race will be the 16th of the season, so time is starting to work against Gordon. The road courses present a big opportunity for Gordon, who has been playing catch-up since crashing at Daytona and Rockingham in the ftrst two races. "We've been trying to come back every weekend, and it always seems like when you get behind, you end up making more mistakes because you are trying so much harder," he said. · Gordon said he expects to make up some ground on the leaders Sunday. . "Some of the other drivers currently ranked higher than us tend to stru~le on road courses," he said. 'So, if e~erything plays. in our favor, we could make up 40 to 50 points on some of those top guys right now. "If you look at two races like that and add them together, with Watkins Glen coming up, that could mean almost I 00 additional points from where we are right now." Rusty Wallace, another of NASCAR's better road racers, also tested at lnfineon with Gordon and.several other drivers on June 8. He said Gordon remains the man to beat "The 31 car rut a major spanking on all o us out there last year and that's a good team to compare yourself with," Wallace said. Sunday, June 27, 2004 Truex loving life atop Busch Series with Earnhardt as boss, friend BY TERESA M. WALKER Jeff Gordon said he told crew chief Robbie Loomis, "I can't believe we're going to gel this pole." · But aU of them had problems, with Rudd qualifying 12th, Stewart 17th, Said 19th and the other Gordon 24th. Robby Gordon, who also won the road race last summer in Watkins Glen, N.Y., shrugged off the poor qualifying effort. "It doesn't matter," he said. "It's one lap. On Sunday, you just keep the fenders on the car and you'll be OK. It will make it exciting, though." Series leader. Jimmie Johnson, whose car owner is Jeff Gordon, fared even worse, qualifying 34th. Dale Earnhardt Jr., who trails Johnson ill the standings by just seven points, wiU start 20th in Sunday's 43-car field. "It's different because the track is a lot fas.ter," Earnhardt said.

(AP) NASCAR has rejected Roush Racing's bid to sign ·a hard liquor company as primary' sponsor for Jeff Bunon 's No. 99 Ford. Though beer and malt liquor sponsors are allowed by NASCAR, spirits advertising is not permitted at any of its events or as team sl'Onsors. Roush had negotiated a deal with British liquor giant Diageo, but it was contingent on NASCAR changing its policy that began in the days when many counties in the South were dry. "Although we understand the sponsorship situation with the No. 99 . entry, it is very unlikely at this time that we would change such a lonjjstanding policy for thts instance," NASCAR president Mike Helton told · The Associated Press on Friday. However, he said the sanctioning organization will continue internal discussions about the hard liquor ban. Geoff Smith, president of Roush Racing, said he was disappointed but not surprised by me decision. "We've been working ·together with them to assess an the historical and current reasons why that policy exists and see if there were any te;iSOOS why it should be revised," Smith said. "My personal opinion is that 95 percent of their obiection was just that history.(, · A decision by TV networks years ago to also ban hard liquor ads reinforced NASCAR's policy evtin as fewer counties remained dry. But with the growth of cable, more TV channels are starting to air such ads.

Your respiratory system is made up of your nose and mouth, your windpipe (trachea), your lungs, and a bunch of air tubes (or airways) that connect your · nose and mouth with your lungs (these tubes are called bronchi and bronchioles). People who have asthma sometimes have trouble breathing. When people who have asthma have this trouble breathing, we call it an asthma attack . This is a common problem. When most of us breathe. the muscles that are wrapped around the air tubes (airways) are very loose and relaxed. and the lining inside the airways is very thin . This lets the airways open up very wide so it is easy to get air in and out of the small air 'acs that make up your lungs (alveoli). When air moves in and out of your lungs. we call this breathing . Durin g an asthma attack. the muscles around the airways tighten. or "spasm" and the lining inside the airways swell or thicken, and get clogged with thick mucous. This makes the airways much skinnier than usual so it is harder to move · air in and out of the air sac. This makes it very difticult to breathe. During an asthma attack, it is actually harder to breathe out than it is to breathe in. Sunday, June Joanne Elliott, AN . This means that during an asthma attack. it takes much longer to breathe out than to breathe in . Since it is so hard to breathe out during an asthma attack, more and more air is trapped inside in the lungs making it feel like you can't breathe ·in or out. Different things can cause an asthma attack. Something that causes an asthma attack is called a trigger. Some common tri ggers of asthma attacks are: allergies, infections like colds or bronchitis, exercise. changes in weather (from mild to cold). and smoke . Everyone doesn't feel the same things when they have an asthma attack. Some of the different symptoms are: persistent coughing. feeling like they can't catch their breath. feeling that they can't get trapped air out of their lungs. chest pain. and very noisy breathing. There are many different medicines doctors may use to help people with. asthma. Some medication s are swallowed (pi lls or liquid). some medications are inhaled. and some medications are injected. For most people. inhaled medicines are used first because they start working very fast. usually in less than five minutes. and they don't ha\'e too many side effects. This is because inhalant medil·ines go right to the lungs and not to ot her parts of the body. Medicines can work in different ways to help people who have asthma . Some medications make the mus- · cles around the airways relax, some lessen the swelling and irritation of the airways. and some are used to: prevent asthma attacks from starting. Most asthma specialists believe that the best way to manage asthm;i is to have the individual actively involved in his or her own treatment. The goals are as follows: normalize lifestyle (includi.ng environmental control). participate in virtually any activity he or she wishes. freedom from night/early morning symptoms, relief or bronchodilator medications should not be required daily, and normalize lung function. Don't let asthma manage you: you manage your asthma. For further information concerning asthma, caH the Gallia County Health Department at (740) 441 2018. .

Local obituaries from the Civil War JAMES SANDS SPECIAL TO THE TIMEs-SENTINEL It's interesting to go through the obituaries in the various Gallipolis papers during the Ci vii War. One will find that Gallia men were at almost all of the major battles . Some were k1lled of wounds. Some died in hospitals, and some died in prison. There were more than 20 Gallia Countians who died at Andersonville Prison in Georgia. Most of them died of dysentery or chroniC diarrhea. Of the 45,000 prisoners to enter Andersonville, some 13,000 died there. _ Andersonville was contained in about 25 acres where each prisoner had about 20 square feet of his own. There were no barracks and no trees there. Men would build a hit with sticks and blankets called a "shebang." During the winter, sticks were highly prized so few were around. Men just slept out in the cold. There was a stream that ran through Andersonville and often it would flood. It made Andersonville look like a . pig sty. It basically smelled that way, too. Most of the men from old Gallia County who died at Andersonville were members of the Ohio 7th Cavalry. Most of them were captured at Rogersville, Tenn., in November 1863 and most of them died in April 1864. Sergeant Grasson Cole wrote back to the Journal about these brave men. He also wrote to their families. lronically, Cole was killed in one of the last battles of the war at Ebenezer Church. He was promoted to Point Pleasant that winter. lieutenant after his death.

It cures in place to provide an attractive finish for surfaces that are both floors and roofs. One of the most positive aspects of the elastomeric system is that it expands and contracts with the substrate avoiding cracks and other damage resulting from movement. An added bonus is that many of these systems are available in a variety of colors and textures and with slip resistant surfaces.
