Craven wilf.look for new ride, but won't ·sell this team short By Monte Dutton · NASCAR This Week Ricky Craven is one of the more likable drivers in the Nex tel Cup Series, not to mention being one of the more articulate and thoughtful figures in the modern history of NASCAR. Unfortunately, Craven, at age 38, will be looking for a new ride in 2005. He and current car owner Cal Wells ' annou nced last week the y would be parting ways at the end of the current season The Newburgh, Maine, native has won tw ice at stock-ca r racing's top level, most recently when he outdueled Kurt Busch at Darlington, S.C., on March 16, 2003. It was the most exciting race of that season. "This is the beginning of. the end of ' our assoCiation (with Wells)," noted Craven. "We still have a lot of racing left, but I absolutely intend on racing next year and for a few more years. But if I'm not, I'll capitalize on the time off to teach my boy to go bird hunting or chase a moose in northern Maine or do something that has been completely opposite of what I've done for 25 years." Craven insisted he would not sacrifice his team's performance thfs year in order to secure stable employment next year. "Honestly, I had two messages yesterday to meet with people today," he said in New Hampshire, "and that's just not that important to me. It's honestly not. There's a lot of racing left, and I want to focus on the (sponsor) Tide racing team and do my job and finish this thing the right way. "I absolutely want to be in a top.quality opportunity next year, but there is plenty of time for that. I think Valley Wallace blamed Truex for a laterace incident that relegated Wallace to 30th place. in the Siemens 300. The actual cra sh occurred beca"se Wallace's Dodge was tapped from behind by Dal e Ja rrett's Ford , but Wa llace said Truex, driving in relief fOr injured Dale Earnhardt Jr., held him up. "That lapped '8' car was just in the way," said Wallace. "It was unbelievably disrespectful for him (Truex) to do something like that." Truex responded by saying: 'What are you going to do? I'm a rookie. They'll always bla me someth ing on n)e." NASCAR ·This Week's Monte Dut1ori g!ves his view: "It was another fru strating week as Wallace fights long odd s in trying to reach the top 10 and make the championship playoff. He's now 310 poirits out of 1oth place, and there are only seven races left." ,. Mudfork BIUflS opened tire Saturday lineup of oands at the Big Bend Blues Bas h 'on Pomeroy .'s Riverfront.

WaHrlp gJvlnl& fans a chance to go to Vegas John Clark/NASCAR Th_is Week there is an evaluation period here wher.e I'm going to challenge myself. I think part of that strategy is to eliminate distraction. I really don't want to be distracted every week with option A, B, or C, and think, 'Oh yeah, I still · have to drive this Tide Monte Carlo."' As an example of the mature, balanced outlook Craven has, note his comments. about NASCAR's new "green-white-checkered" method of improving the chance of green-flag finishes. · · · "It's like this," he said. "The decision is the right decision relative to the business, relative to the brand (and) relative to the entertainment business. I've said this over and over and over. It's a great time to be in Nextel C,up racing. It's never been · more popular or more exciting. The responsibility that goes with that is & Sup·ply Co. 555 Park St e Middleport that it needs to continue to get even more exciting and more entertaining, and I guess the green-white-checkered solves one of those issues that was very apparent. I say it's apparent because who is ultimately the judge? The people who are buying the brand, the people who are sitting in the seats or buying the suites or the people who are spending their money to make this machine run. "Now, from a driver's standpoint, I don't think anybody really likes that 'green-white-checkered.' That's my opinion. I don't like the green-whitec~eckered thing because it's a com. promise, but, when you look at the big picture, if you can do that, it's absolutely better for the sport."

H~Jw eve r, you 'd be talking to yourself: When woodland ow ners sell timber. their legal responsibility for preventing water pollution doesn't pass to the logger harvesting the trees. Under Ohio's AgriculturuJ · Pollution Abatement ·law, which addresses impacts to the "waters of the state" resu lting from timber harvests. responsibility rests with the landowner.. Sometimes, erosion or sed im entation prob lems uren ' t obvious to the landowner until after !he timber harvest is ·fi nished. By then it can be ditf'icult to get the logging compan_y to correct problems, especwlly if the company has gone on to anot her job - often in another county. That'~ why it is so impor~ant to choose a logger carefully. to insist on a written contract that requires the use of best management prac. tices. and to file a Operation and Management (0& M) plan with 1he local soil and water conservation ·district (SWCD) before start ing the harvest. · O&M plans are not mandatory for timber h.arvests. bui · they can help landowners and loggers head off problems. . Filing a plan signals to the logger that the landowner takes erosio n control seriously ijnd lets the SWCD know a -timber harvest is planned. If the SWCD sees a probl em wi th the plan, the plan· can be revised before the harvest starts and problems occur. A plan approved by the local SWCD can also help protect a, landowner from nuisance lawsuits as long as the best management practices in the plan are being followed. Of course, just putting a pl~n on paper won't ensure that best management pmcrices are followed during the timber harvest. Unless the landowner has expe11i,;e in managing a timber harvest. it's best to seek out professional help. Service Foresters from the Ohio Depmtment of Natural Resources Division of Forestry can advise-landowners ont woodland management , includi ng best management practices for timber barvests and filing O&M plans. Many landowners also rely on private consulting · foresters. who can manage a tim ber sale and oversee the harvest.

A most wonderful season has arrived in southern Ohio and and across the country: County fair :time. This weekend there are fairs in approximately 700 counties in the U.S County fairs hearken back to a seemingly simpler ~ime. to when the state was more rural than urban. They offer a nostalgic escape. to when 4-H blue ribbons marked an honor. one notch below being elected mayor and the local National Guard unit' actually used the artillery gun displays. That's not how fairs .were meant to be, though . . Back in the days when the Model T and its varying offspring were the hot new way to get around, county fairs served as a showcase of the extreme :and exotic: Carnival rides that ]IO one ever would go on again 11ntil the fair returned the next :year, sideshows of sword-eatmen and the world's fattest · , , o:tisplays of th~ best cattle btggest pumpkins, .pte eatlng contests. . ~ Oh, those things still exist, 'Of courSe. But we've all taken trips to parks like Six Flags, and their rides make a county fair midway look quaint. Sideshows have turned politi. ~ally correct; it's no lon~er . acceptable to gawk. Selecllve breeding and genetic modifications make everyone's liveS!OCk and crops healthy and large by yesterday's standards. Yet sadly, many of today 's .!Qds play solitaire versions of Robert Pawelek · pie-eating contests every day in front of the television. . Still. all of us enjoy a fair. }'here is that special sense of awe among children, to whom everything is new. Clearly, fairs are meant for kids! Yet for adults, the county fair provides a return to when we were young at heart and in body. To many in Ohio and across the country, that youth meant growing up on a farm. The unceasing labor and iso• lation rural life demanded elevated the county fair's escapist value - riding the Ferns wheel to heights never climbed, seeing people from communities rarely ventured to (always a plus for teenagers), witnessing a menagerie of animals from a range of species and breeds. The county fair held the · allure of Christmas, except in this instance you were reduced to the toys' size and interacted with them on their level.

READER'S VIEW Smoking (~ery low tar - daes not mean very few deaths' Forty years ago. the Surgeon General's report on the health risk of smoking cigarettes led to a very successful campaign that reshaped the cultural acceptability of tobacco use. In 1965, 42.4% of the United States population smoked; in 200 I, 22.8% had not kicked the habit yet. Among professionals and persons with higher. education, a much higher percentage quit than among the less educated. Cigarettes have changed since the 1960's. · The tobacco · industry is frying desperately to create a 'safe cigarette' but, so far, THERE IS NONE! Smokers are led to believe that cigarettes are now less harmful. They may be shorter, ~ave a fil• ter and, most ·of all, hopes have been placed on reduced tar intake. Ninety percent of cigarettes bought today are of the reduced tar brands. In industry laboratories, smoking [l13Chines confirm the reduced amount of tar; however, people are different from the testing machines. Smokers inadver. tently go through compensation maneuvers, such as deeper inhalations, more puffs per minutes, delayed and slower exha-. latlon. What really counts is the fact. that smokers have a far greater chance of getting lung cancer when they smoke, regardless of what brand, than non-smokers or 'th~se who quit smoking. : An extensive study to confirm the above statement is published in the British Medical Journal, for United States prima·~ care physicians, March 2004. Their conclusion: 'The 'increase in lung cancer risk is similar in people who smoke :inediuni tar cigarettes (15 to 21 mg), low tar cigarettes (8 to 14 mg), or very low tar cigarettes (7 mg or less). Men and . women who smoke non-filtered cigarettes with tar ratings 22 :mg or more have an even higher risk of lung cancer.' :: From more than 1.1 million patients, 364,239 men and .' ~76,535 women were entered into the study. The end point was death from cancer involving the trachea, bronchus or lung over a six year period. Among men, 2,622, and women, ·t ,406, died from the above noted cancers. :. ·If you are a smoker, cut this article out and read it often. Set lllarget date and quit smoking. Remember, you are not alone. Ninety percent who quit, quit on their own. But, don't be shy! . If you need help, contact the Gallia County Tobacco Use Prevention Coalition at 446-5940. It is your health that is at risk! · (Boston) Well. I finally tracked down Michael Moore. I saw him walking in the street outside the Democratic Convention Center and pounced on him like .the paparazzi on J-Lo. Moore had been dodging me ·because his movie was becoming increasingly indefensible by something called 'facts.' But, to his credit, Moore took up my street challenge • and agreed to appear on 'The Factor'. We debated for ten minutes and Moore put forth the following: . * That President Bush ' lied' about Iraqi Weapons of Mass Destruction even 9111 though the Commi ssion, the Senate Committee . Intelli ge nce Investigation and Lord Butler's British Investigation all say Bush did not lie. * Moore defines a 'lie' as .anything that turns out not to be true .

Mears, driving a Dodge for Target Chip Ganassi Racing , turned a lap of 171.720 mph Friday for hi s first career pole m 56 tnes. He topped the fourth-place start he earned last year in Chicago. Mears does have seven top10 fi nishes this year, but none better than seventh. · "This team is really going to the next level." Mears said. "We've been seventh, seventh, seventh. We need to crack that top five. If we c1m crack that top five. we can win races.'' A light drizzle and heavy fog shortened practice to an hour and delayed quahlymg tor the Pennsylvania 500.

It seemed only fitting it happened at .. · . . · Ppcono. Mears struggled for most of his rookie season until Ganassi entered him last year in both ARCA races at Pocono and he won both for bis first stock-car victories. The races were on consecutive nights becau se one at the track in june was postponed by rain. Then Mears completed the 900-mile Pocono triple with a 35th-place finish in the Pennsylvania 500. . , "It was pretty apparent by the end of last vear we needed to pick it up," Mears said. "If i.ve didn 't pick it up. I don 't think I'd be around by the middle of this year." The pocono marathon might have been the turning point for Mears, who starts Sunday's cace 17th in NASCAR Nextel Cup ~oints. Mears started 21st and fini shed lOth m the Pocono 500 on the same track seven weeks . ago. "When we come here, 1 feel like I'm at home a little bit," he said.

"Charade." His cast, led by .Denzel Washington, Meryl Streep · and Liev Schreiber, is firstrate, ably filling the roles originated by Frank Sinatra, ·. Angela Lansbury .and Laurence Harvey in John Frankenheimer 's 1962 original. adapted from Ri chard Condon's potboiler. Still, Demme's retooling of the thriller about brainwashed soldiers as puppets in an assassination conspiracy disappoints, despite the filmmakers' efforts to bnng new relevance to the Cold War saga by sett ing it amid our own war on terrori sm. The obvious plot choice would have been casting a shady cabal of. Muslim ter-. rorists as mastermmds ot the intrigue. A small group of far.atics able to orchestrate a U.S. presidential coup could ring as terrifyingly wday . as . the Communist heavtes dtd tn Frankenheimer's film. · But that would have been too bold for - timid Hollywood, which aims for. big returns by not displeasing anyone, · including the sizable domestic and overseas audience that might take offense over Mus lim villains carrying out such a scheme. So Demme and screenwriters Daniel Pyne . and Dean Georgaris turn · to the easy target, making big business the bad guy as an anonymous outfit called Manchurian Global connives to put its dupe in the White House . · "The Manchurian Candidate" updates the initial action from the Korean War to the early 1990s as Capt. Ben Marco (Washington, in the old Sinatra role) leads hi s men on a reconnaissance mission in Kuwait just before the , Gulf War. The U.S. Jroops are ambushed, and Marco is knocked unconscious. Sgt. Ray(llond Shaw (Schreiber) takes command, singlehandedly fighting otT the assault and· ·leadwg the survivors of his lost patrol to safety after three days in the desert. Awarded the Medal of Honor. Shaw is elected to · Congress . Through the machinations of his mother, U.S . Sen. Eleanor Shaw ( Stree p), he becomes the vice presidential candidate in a post-Sept II campaign where the current administration is assailed for its handling of the war on terronsm. . Whenever asked, Marco and the other soldiers lapse into mechanical adulation of the 6ergeant as the finest, bra~est man on the planet. Yet they· re all troubled by dreams of bloody surgical procedures and images of Shaw suffocating one of their fallen comrades. Marco, now a paranoid major diagnosed with Gulf War Syndrome, suspects he, · Shaw and the others are vi~­ tims of high-tech brainwashing, with mechanical implants creating false memories and controlling their actions. The remake plays out predictably, with little suspense. The movie's .main depanure from the original plot - Harvey's Shaw was programmed to assassinate the presiqential candidate so his stepfather could step in - lea:ves little surprise as to who the trigger man will be. The plot changes also stretch credibility when Shaw begins running around carrying out misdeeds robotically. Apparently, in this postSept. II world, security is lax and a vice presidential candidate does not attract attention when he's out on his own. Straining for relevance, the filmmakers toss in references to suc h fictional terrorist crises as the "Indonesian incursion," U.S. military policing around the world and warprofiteering by Manchurian Global, a Ia allegations against Halliburton. It 's all so superticial, though, that it adds no dramatic resonance . The huge supporting cast is led .· by Jon Voight as a se nator denied the vice presidential slot; Vera Farmiga as his daughter and Shaw's former girlfriend ; Kimberly Elise as an FBI agent involved with Marco (a variation on the romantic role Janet Leigh had in the original); and Jeffrey Wright as an unbalanced member of Marco's patrol. Washington and Schreiber muster nice kinship as comrades now at odds.
