Gallia County Health Depanment Director Judy Linder has heen ordered by the Ohio Depanment of Health to limit the vaccines to those 65 and older and children aged 6 months to 2 years. Those aged 2 to 64 years with a chronic medical condition, like heart disease, lung disease, asthma or diabetes, may get a nu shot. Others who may have a tlu shot arc pregnant women, any children aged 6 months to 18 years who are under chronic aspirin therapy, and those who live with an infant 6 months of age or younger. "The Ohio Department of Health provides our vaccine, and we have to go by their guidelines," Linder said. "We're going along with their request." The Center for Disease Control also has asked physicians to follow the reSiriclion, caused when Briti sh regulators suspended the license of Chiron Corp., which makes about half the tlu vaccine used in America . The Gallia County Health Depanment gave 4,500 nu shots la' t year, and was hoping to give the same thi s year, Linder said. More than 2,000 dose s from Aventis, the American company that makes the other half of the vaccine supply, had been ordered. When Linder contacted Aventis. she was informed that the Center for Di sease Con trol had reque.,ted them w re-direct pre-booked orders like Gallia County\. Those ';_,ho do without a nu shot should wash their hands regularly, eat well and get enough rest and exercise. Abo. Linder 'aid tho>e between age> 5 to 40 have another option. A nasal 'pray called Flumist is a live, virus vaccine that will do the same as a tlu shot. 1hc said. She advised people to ask the ir doctors aboul it.

Ohio Department of Transportation Deputy Director George Collins said construction on the Ohio side of the bridge has been delayed until the river bank can be stablized, and that ODOT will closely monitor the structural integrity of the existing bridge to ensure its safety. The slip has also forced ODOT to re-design the Ohio bridge approach. Rumors abound about construction . delays and other complication s due to the slip. but {j)JJith said Friday the subsurface sl ip has been undetected for years, and will not seriously affect the project or its completion schedule.

Better known as meadow mice, they may be finding their way into your home, garage or barn to join their cousins the house mouse (Mus musculus). Mouse control consists of three procedures: Sanitation, exclusion and population reduction. Sanitation includes removal of weedy areas and junk piles around the yard. Identify potential mouse entry points and close them . Replace door sweeps, caulk and seal around utility entries and windows. A quarter-inch entry is large enough for a mouse to crawl through. · Store foods in sealable containers, especially dog, cat and bird food. Reduce populations of mice by trapping. Either spring traps or disposable glue traps work well. Remember the traps need to be checked a couple times a day. Baits are also available for mouse control. Place in bait stations to prevent chi\.dren, pets and other wildlife from gaining access to the bait. Anchor the traps so other larger animals can ' t destroy or remove the bait stations. ... How is your strawberry growin~'? Sonia patch Schloemann, Frutt Specialist with the University " o( Massachusetts, suggests the following fall check-list for strawberry growers, both homeowner and commercial. Remember that flower bud initiation has already Hal Kneen occurred deep in the crown of the strawberry plant. so keeping the plant healthy throughout the winter is most important for next spring's harvest. Healthy foliage is necessary to reap a good harvest. Leaves continue to produce carbohydrate> for the strawberry throughout the fall and winter months and store them in the root system for early Spring plant and fruit deve lopment. . Check your plants for leaf spot and powdery mildew. Clip off infected leaves in home situations and apply the fungicide. Nova in a commercia! situation. Control weeds in the strawberry bed. especially grasses and early winter annuals . Hand weeding is necessary for any weeds larger than a seedling. Commercial growers may control small grass seedlings by spraying with Poast.a grass herbicide whi le weather is sti ll warm. Pre-emergent herbic'ides like Devrinol and Sin bar can prevent seeds from sprouting. Make sure to follow label directions and watch out for variety sen.sitivity to chemicals. Cultivate between rows. even if you need to destroy a · few wandering strawberry plants. Drainage is extremely imporfant in reducing leather rot and winter kill. Purchase sufficient straw so two to four inches of 'traw may be u>ed for protective cover over the plants .

Goat meat demand increasing RoBERT PAWELEK OSU EXTENSION GALLIA COUNTY As the number of immigrants to Ohio rises, demand for goat meat and dairy products has led to a mini-boom in the number of farmers wishing to capitalize on cheaper and easier-to-raise livestock. Of the top 20 immigrant groups to the U.S., 18 or 19 come from goat meat -eating countries. Immigrants are bringing their food traditions to this country and that creates opportunity. A growing number of Hispanic, African and Islamic consumers, coupled with state incentives to diversify farming operations - and lessen dependence on tobacco as a cash crop may help to drive the industry our way. The number of goat farms in the Ohio Valley has been rising steadily in response to increased demand. Nationally, the number of goat farms rose 19.5 percent to 91,462 in 2002 from 76.543 in 1997, according to the USDA's Census of Agriculture. Goat meat fetches $I. 70 to $2.25 a pound in the live markets. In New York City, it's $13 to $16 a pound in retail grocers. Okav. here in the n;al world, It's a lot cheaper than that. but it 's stil l an alternati ve to beef production on small acreages. The meat has less fat thmt simi larly prepared beef cir lamb. The cholesterol content of goat meat, also called chevon. is similar to that of beef, lamb. pork. and ch icken and is much lower than some dairy, poultry products and some seafood, according to various researchers. The switch to goat farming is painless for many farmers because the animals are adaptable to a range of en vi· ronmental condi tion s. l'.he hill country of south Ohio is suitable for goat production. Goats can also be used for weed control-. West Virginia University research showed that goat> reduced brush cover in pasture from 45 percent to under 15 percent in one nseaso n. Sheep required three seasons to accomplish the same reduction. Goats were able to clear mixed species Df brush irrespective of whether a her-· bicidc or mowing was used initial ly. Tatiana Stanton. an extension associate with the Northeast Sheep and Goat Marketing Progr't'R..l at Cornell University, sa1ti"'f0iats are easier to handle than beef cattle or dairy cows and require less capital investment and equipment.

In the survey. both candidates responded to questions about farm bill reauthorization. renewahle energy. biotechnology. repeal of the death tax and transportation infrastructure. among others. Both candidates supported expanding the use of renewable fueb and el im inat ing estate tax impacts on farm families . but had differing perspectives on issues such as ex tend ing Trade Promotion Authority (TPA J and promoting acceptance of biotechnology. Bu.,h said that in order for farming and ranch families to co ntinue to make a living, Congress should pass the comprehensive energy bill and eliminate death taxes.

Given the opportunity to compete on a level playing tield. they will be able to increase their share of mar- kcts here at home and across the glohe."

Ov~r the years I ha ve been har,hly criti ca l ot' the scie ntific communi ty for wasting time researching things nobody cares about. such as the universe. I don't know about you, but I'm tired of reading newspaper stories like this: "Using a giant telescope. astronomers at the prestigious Crudwinkle Observatory have observed a teensy light smudge that they say is a humon gous galaxy cluster 17 jillion light years away, whic' h would make it the farthe staway thing that astronomers have discovered this week. However, astronomers at the rival Fendleman Observatory charged that what the Crudwinkle scientists discovered is actually mayonnaise on the lens. Both groups of astronomers . say they plan to use th ese new findings to obtain even larger 'telescopes." Wtth all due respect I.D astronomers: We don't NEED to find any more stuff in the universe.

'' But despite several million years of thinking virtu"ally nonstop about sex, guys have made very little progress toward answering such basic questions about human sexuality as: How can you obtain more of it'! How much talkin~ is requ ired'' What is the role of jewelryry How impo rtant is the size of a guy's. um. car'! Fur guys. these · are uncharted wa ters . That's why I am S() pleased by a recent Reuters article. seltl to me by alert reader Jorge · concerning Gomez. research being done by sci entist.l ·at Stanford Un iversity into the sex life of fruit tlies. This research is significant because fruit llies have many biological similaritie s to humans. for · example, both species eat fruit. The li st go~s on · and on . According to thi' artic le. when a male fruit fl y wan" to have >Cx with a female frull tly. he goes through a series uf specifi c steps. the firs t one being t\) pound down approxunately eight martinis. No, wait. that's what a human guy would do ,.jf he were gomg to atten1Pt to mate with a female who had six legs and 17 ,000 eyeballs. which , trust me, IS not out of the guestion fur some guys. and you know who you are . What male fruit flie s do is engage in a courtship ritual. which according to the Reuters articte includes "tapping the female, extending and vibrating a wing and singing ." (The article doesn't say what they sing, but I ass ume it's "Ca n't Get Enough of Your Love, Babe," by the late Barry White). The Stanford scientists found that these ritual mat ing actions are controlled by a sector of the fly's brain consistin g of 60 ce ll s about twice the number of brain cells required to cast a vote on "Ame ri can Idol. " According to th e article. when scientists mcs' up these celb. the male !lies rus h through the mating steps - "esseJltially try to do everything at once" - wh ich causes the females to become turned ofT and develop little fly headaches. This, of course. is e~ac t ly the . mistake that male humans make: We're always trying tu ru'h ·through the mating steps.

"We can't do it alone," a health departm~nt spokesperson said. The mock mass vaccination is a training exercise to test plans to provide smallpox vaccinations quickly to many people. Of course, no real vaccine will be used in the drilL "Training volunteers ahead of iime gets us much closer to being able to set up a clinic quickly," the spokesperson said. The drill needs up to 50 volunteers, who do not need a medical background to participate. Both medical and nonmedical volunteers are need- ed to run the drill. "One of the most critical aspects of the plan is using volunteers to help staff the neces~ary clinic to vaccinate Gallia· .County residents in less than a week," the spokesperson said. Several training sessions will be offered at the health department to allow more people to attend. Volunteers need only attend one session. Non-medical volunteer training is offered four times: • Wednesday, Oct. 13, from 12:30-3:30 p.m.; • Thursday, Oct 14 from 8:30 a.m.- II :30 a.m. and 6:30-9:30 p.m.; . • Saturday. Oct. 16 from 9 a.m.-noon. Medical training is offered twice: • Thursday, Oct. 14 from 6:30-9:30 p.m.; • · Saturday, Oct. 16 from 9 a.m.-noon. The drill also needs participants to go through the various steps as if they were getting a vaccination. "The drill offers benefits to individuals and to the community," the spokesperson said. "Both participants and volunteers will have more peace of mind because they will know how they will be protected · in case of a smallpox or other bioterror attack." A community that has done the drill is better prepared to deal with any type of emergency in which medications need to be distributed to many people in a short time. Employee groups, civic organizations, churches and adult friends and family members are encouraged to attend the training together. To sign up for a training session, call the health department at 441-2018, or send an e-mail to cclark@odh.ohio.state.

The Marauder defense came' ·up with another solid stand on a third-and-long situation. and it was Eskew who again came up wi th the big play. His sack of Edwards forced another punt and gave MHS great field position at the NY HS 46 with :45 remaining in the first quarte r. Unfortunately, Meigs managed onl y ten yard s on its following drive and gave the ball back to NYHS with 9:53 remaining in the first half. Then. the Buckeyes ' onslaugh t of offense started. Nelsonville's first play saw David Jo lley scamper 45 yards to the MHS 19. It took ei~ht more plays to reach paydtrt, but a !-yard run by Jolley extended the lead to 14-0 with 5:28 left in the quarter. The score would rematn the same entering halftime. Mei ~;s opened the second half wtth possession and was quickly forced into a pu nti ng situation less than a minute into the quarter. Nelsonville took over the ball at its own 42. Faced with a third-and-one, fullback Bear Lewis plowed his way through the middle of the Meigs' defense for a 46yard ru n that set-up firs t-and goal at the three. Edwards capred the drive on the followmg play wi th rushing score that gave NYHS a 20-0 lead at 9:4! in the third quarter. Meigs could not coine up with an answer to the Bucks ' defense on its next three plays, and was forced b<tck into a punting situation . The punt pinned Nelsonville back at its own 32-yard line. but a 65-yard touchdown pass from Edwards to Eric Davis on second down gave the Buckeyes a comfortable 27-0 advantage with 7: II left in the third. ·· Things continued to roll the Buckeyes ' way in the fourth quarter. as · Charlie Wend ' • ~- scored from a yard out to increase lhe lead to 34-0 with I 0: 15 remaining in the contest. A final touchdown run from Daniel Fox at 5·:44 concluded the scoring on the evening . Offensively, the Marauders managed only two first 'downs in the second half. the first of which came at 4:48 in the final qum1er. They were also limited to 0-for-6 passing in the final 24 minutes and produced 46 yards of total offense during that time frame. Nelsonvill e, on th e other hand, had two players produce more net yardage than the entire Meigs team. Bear Lewis led the rushing attack with 103 yards on eight carries. while David Jolley came a yard short of eclipsing the century mark on 13 totes. Jared Casey led Meig s with 32 yards on nine attempts. while David Poole added fo ur carries for 2 1 yards. Follol¥ing a 4- 1 start in nonconference pla y, the Marauders (4-3, 0-2) now need some help if they are to make a playoff run or claim a share of the TVC crown. That run begins Friday when Meigs .opens a two-game road stand at Albany to take on the Alexander Spartans.

"What I did was not correct. but I don't think it's fair to take points off the 'coreboard," Earnhardt said. "Still,'we've got a lot of racing left todu and we'll try to make sure those 25 points dun 't make any difference when it's over. "It's hard changing who you are. I've got a lot of friends who tell me all the .time that I should clean it up a little bit. But, being 30 years old, it's hard to ch;mge in the middle of the road."'

"I know it was pretty commonplace with my dad to be up in that trailer every weekend." he said. "A ll the drivers have sa id that was something they really liked about dad was that he could go up in there and get something done for the drivers. "I'd Jove to be that guy. Who wouldn 't?

DNR tracking gobblers by radio BY JoHN McCoY For the Associated Press SOtJTHSIDE, W.Va. -Even after the flock of turkeys strode into the baited clearing, Clarence Williamson spent a long, anxious hour waiting for them to wander into his trap. Finall:r - when the birds were so close he could hear the1r footsteps m the tall grass - Williamson triggered an explosive charge and sent a 40-by-60foot net hurtling over the startled birds. West Virginia's latest wildlife research project had five new subjects to study. Since Sept. I, Division of Natural Resources biologists have been capturing wild turkey gobblers and outfitting them with radio transmitters. The trapping effort is the lirst phase of a longterm study to determme why so few of West Virginia's gobblers survive long enough to become adults. "The gobbler survival rates in West Virginia and Virginia are the lowest ever reported in scientific literature ," said Jim Pack, the DNR 's lead turkey biologist. "We figured it was time to find out why:" To do so. workers for the DNR and for the Virginia Department. of Game and Inland Fisheries will spend the next five years tracking radio-collared gobblers and studying why, when and how the birds die. Half of West Virginia's project calls for DNR workers to keep 75 radios going at any given time . That means a considerable amount of trapping has lo take place, at least at the start uf the study. ''We're trapping all over the state," Pack said. "We want our gobbler population ro represent ·as wide a geographic area as possible." . For the biologists who do the trappmg, it means long h.ours spent setting up trapping sites: bai_ting them and wamng patiently tor b1rds to wander mto the traps. "Sometimes the birds come, sometimes they don't," said Tom Dotson, district biologist for the state's southwestem counties. " h\ a matter of waiting umilthey do." . For Williamson, that meant spendmg a morning and a half hiding beside a Chief Cornstalk Wildlife Management Area field . As the Mason County tract's resident manager. Williamson was responsible for springing the trap and calling in a team to install the radios. "We couldn't trap the birds after midday because we didn't want them to overheat," he said . "If we were going to get them, we had to get them during the morning hours ." Sixteen birds eventually showed up in Williamson's field. They took their time approaching the bait site, feeding on insects as they cam~. . Finally, when the flock found the ban and settled down to feed, Williamson thumbed the switch that triggered the trap. The cannon-propelled net descended on II of the 16 birds, ensnaring them in its meshes . The captured turkeys included two adult hens, four juvenile hens and five juvenile gobblers. After weighing and measuring all of the birds. a DNR team fitted the gobblers with cigareue-lighter-sized radios. Held in place with elastic straps, the trans·mitters are designed to rest between the bird's wings without inhibiting its movements. Mortality sensors built into the radi?s will indicate when the gobblers dte. Biologists will track the signals to the individual corpses, "and, by exammmg the birds' remains, will be able to determine what killed them . DNR officials hope the study will determine the reason West Virginia's gobblers suffer such a high juvenile death rate. "Our concern is that we' re shooting enough gobblers in ·the spring to interfere with mating," Pack said. "We suspect that might be the reason we're getting such large fluctuations in our harvest." In states such as Missouri, where conservative bag limits and season lengths govern the spring kill, such fluctuations don 't o'cour. "The question is whether our fluctuations are the result of fluctuations in the population or if it's because we really knock our gobblers hard during the hunting season," Pack added. So far this fall, biologists have captured 28 of the 75 birds they're after, mostly in the "nontraditional" counties outside the Monongahela National Forest. Trapping will continue until a full complement of gobblers has been outfitted with radios. (John McCoy is an outdoors writerfor rhe Sunday Gazerre-Mail in Charleston (W Va.))

PageC2 YOUR HOMETOWN A glitnpse into police Here's what to look for work, 19th century-style in a portfolio review iunba~ ltm~ ·itnttnel BY J~MES SANDS In late 1882. the Gallipolis Bulletin newspa~er printed an interesting arttcle written by a Gallipolis city marshal named Thomas Guyn that told about how police work was conducted in that era. Mr. Guyn said that he had received at 8 p.m. on Oct. 12, a telegram from a Pomeroy marshal named Mr. Scott with infomiation telling him to be on the look out for "junk boats" carrying stolen copper. A junk boat was a name give n to small boats, both steam driven and human powered, that carried produce or material a shon dtstance on the Ohio River. They were usually made from pans of abandoned boats. A few days after Guyn received the above telegraph. he was in Clipper Mill on business when he spotted two junk boats coming from the West Virginia shore toward Mr. Plymale's landing on the Ohio side. There the boats sto pped. Guyn then depu. tized a citizen to watch the junk boats to see what they did with their load. As soon as the Boslana steamboat came down the river, the owners of the junk boat~ hailed the Bostana and shipped 22 oil barrels, five barrels and one keg of what they called scrap iron. Guyn said that as soon as he was informed of this shipment. he and Mr. Kennett took the 5:26 p.m. train for Cincinnati on Friday. They arrived at Cincinnati about 8 a.m. on Saturday morning. It was apparently a 15-hour trip by rail then. Sunday, October 10, It was even slower by boat and swam to shore. A fanner because the Bostana was still L.H .

Different foods have different values Bring your children up to understand that different foods have difterent values. Green Light foods are "go for it" food s. Included in this group are the following: Vegetables, legumes, fruits, whole grains, fish, pasta, nuts and seeds, soy products, tofu, . eg~s . meat and poultry (lean), dairy food s (low fat or non fat), vegetable oils, healthy treats (unhydrogenated). Yellow Light foods are "think about it foods." This group includes pies, cakes, butter, cookies, pastries, candy, fast foods, fruit drinks, white bn:ad, doughnuts, sodas or ~p or frozen yogurt. Red Light foods are "stop, say no bad for your foods." Avoid eating too many of these foods . This list includes: Hot dogs (most) , nitrite containing meats, packaged foods with hydrogenated oil, marshmallows, punches and drinks with added colorings, cotton candy, crushe~ iced drinks (mostly syrup and dyes), hydrogenated mls and fast foods fned in Janet Wetherholt hydrogenated oils.

CORINNA, Maine (AP)·This time· of year, farms around the country advertise hayrides, pumpkin - and apple-picking, and mazes made from corn grown as high as an elephant's eye. Some of these larger-thanlife 3-D puzzles are simplistic. designed for young chi ldren to wander thro'ugh in just a few minutes. But others -. like a six-acre corn maze shaped like a lobster in rural Maine - are so intricate that guides are stationed in field towers to help lost visitors. It's not just the difficulty of findin g the exit that makes these mazes different, however. More and more of them are agricultural works of art. "Part of maki1Jg it entertaining is having a coo l-looking design," said Brett Herbst. whose Utah-based company, The MAiZE. has designed more than 600 corn mazes around the world since 1996- including the lobster labyrinth in Corinna.

No, we're not talking about the Boston Red Sox at playoff time . This is Texas high school football. and exaggeration is impossible. From the big cities to the smallest wind-swept towns. it really is a way of life. H.G. "Buzz" Bissinger captured it with eloquence and evocative detail in his 19'10 best seller "Friday Night Lights'' - and director Peter Berg does it again in his film of the same name. It's easy to overdramatize the heroism and heartache of a sports movie. but Berg, who adapted Bi ss inger 's book with screenwri ter David Aaron Cohen, resists the urge and goes in the opposite direction. The focus is on Permian High School football in the West Texas city of Odessa. both on the field and in the locker room. The look is stripped down and bleached out, making the already parched landscape of oil fields and sc·rub brush seem even bleaker, though in a strikingly beautiful way. And the soundtrack is an eclectic mix of old-school rap . rock and punk, including the truly inspired use of The Stooges' "I Wanna Be Your Dog'' during the Permian Panthers' gutsy second half in the 1988 state championship. There is an awful lot of action, though - the football scenes have a bone-jarring realism thanks to stunt coordinator Allan Graf, a former USC offensive line-· man who also charco- · graphed the play s in ''Any Oiven S'unday" and " Jerry Maguire" - but sometimes at the expense of character development. • .

But Berg does faithfully depict thebe-all, end -all element of high school football in places like this, where literally every store shuts down on Friday nights and the 20.000 people packing the stadium all have some opinion on how the coach should run the tea m. As the under-pressure Coach Gaines, Billy Bob Thornton continues to show he can bring nuance to any role . Thornton doesn 't turn the character into a cliche, barking out orders like a drill sergeant. Instead, he shows the seething anxiety of living under the constant possibility "of being fired (after a huge Permian Joss. Gaines comes home to a sea of "for sale" signs sprouting from his front lawn) as well as the genuine desire to deve lop strong players and even stronger men. Among 'the star s of his squad are shy quarterback Mike Winchell (Lucas Black. who played opposite Thornton as a boy in "Sl.ing Blade" ), who's not really sure why he's playin g football. and party-boy tailback ANN M. JOB For The Associated Press In an unusual move for a completely revamped model, the third-generation Grand Cherokee is arriving in showrooms with a noteworthy price cut. The Jist price, including destination w···char~e. of $26,775 for a two-wheel-drive, V6-powered, base Laredo model is at least $1,635 Jess than its predecessor's. It's also more than $700 less than a comparable 2005 Ford Explorer and more than $1,600 less than a Chevrolet TrailBlazer. The starting price for a VB-powered 2005 Grand Cherokee also dropped by about $1,000. Yet the new Grand Cherokee - the flagship sport utility vehicle of the Jeep line has been re-engineered for more power. a quieter ride, better on- and off-road dynamics and more comfortable interior. Jeep officials credited engineering efficiencies for the price reduction . But they also noted there are at least 27 competitors to the Grand Cherokee now. The model originally debuted in 1992 in a far Jess crowded mid-size sport utility market. The look of the new Grand Cherokee hasn't changed radically. Its styling lines appear to be . crisper, and the vehicle has round , jeweled headlamps at the sides of the familiar sevenslot grille. This is the first Grand Cherokee to offer a Hemi VB. The high-powered 5.7~iter engine, generating best-in-class 330 horsepower and 375 foot-pounds of torque at 4,000 rpm, moves the SUV along powerfully. It 's available as an option on the top Limited 4WD model, and the live-speed automatic manages the power delivery smoothly. Wben equipped with the Hemi, the Grand Cherokee has the segment-leading towing capacity of 7,200 pounds. This is more than some full-size trucks can tow and compares with the Explorer's maximum of 7,140 pounds. To help fuel economy, the Hemi in the Grand Cherokee is the first in an SUV to Include cylinder deactivation which automatically turns off half of the engine 's eight cylinders when they're not needed - when the vehicle is cruising, for example. Still, the Grand Cherokee with the Hemi wqn 't win any fuel-economy awards. It is rated at 14 miles a gallon in city driving and . 21 mpg on the highway. Jeep also continues to offer the 235-horsepower, 4. 7-liter, single overhead cam, Power Tech VB (L to r) Boobie Miles ( Derek Luke).

Berg. as Bissinger 'Taxi' •. (AP) Queen Latifah and Jimmx Fallon's cop romp ''Taxi ' is a cinematic retlec tion of a cab ride to the airport in rush hour, start-stop traffic: Long periods of immobility punctuated by the occasional lively lurch forward. Your driver's yammering shrilly on -his cell phone. Between calls. he turns and tosses a mildly amusing 4uip toward the back seat before dialing again and resuming his chatter. And you're checking the time, watching the meter tick, thinking, I'm paying ~ood money for this'' "Taxi is a seriously disappointing followup for director Tim Story, who made an impressive debut with 2002's " Barbershop." ·Based on the 1998 French !lick of the same name that was written by. Luc Besson (who also produces the remake), "Taxi" is substandard issue in the mismatched buddy comedy genre. The jokes are lame save for an odd wisecrack and sight gag, the characters are cliches, while the car chases and other action are tediou sly repetitive, from lack of either finesse or experience by Siory and his crew. As for the potentially merry pairing of the two leiids, let '.s j ust. say Jamie 'THE Foxx as a cabbie struggling for his life and Tom Cruise as a bloodthirsty assassin in "Collateral" had far more comic chemistry than Latifah 's taxi dnver and Fallon ·s bungling cop. Latifah is Belle Williams, a tlashy New York cabbie with an even tlashier taxi, decked out with enough speed enhancement gadgets to make James Bond jealous. Fallon's an idiot-savant, without that savant part. An eager undercover cop who inevitably botches every operation. Fallon's detective Andy Wa,hbum commandeers Belle's taxi to cha~e after four female bank robbers so gorgeous their wanted posters t:ould land on the cover of Vogue. Supermodel Gisele Bundchen makes her acting debut as Vanessa, the leader of the thieving quartet. She looks great, acts terribly. but the script is tailored more to her legs than her dramatic talents. Bundchen's only interesting moment comes with a gratuitously lewd scene in which she frisks, at length , co-star Jennifer Esposito. who plays Washburn's ex. now his longsuffering lieutenant. The sequence belongs in a highlights reel ot Hollywood guilty pleasures for 2004. Vanessa \ three cohorts also look great but are so inconsequential they don ' t even have names. With the cheer of the affable drunk. Ann-Margrct enlivens her few moments in ·Taxi" as Washburn's boozy mother. who's apparently never met a blender she didn't like. Latifah and Fallon each have individual moments where their comic charm shines through . Together, though. the two are often awk ward, their dialogue playing like the uncertain exchanges of actors feeling each other out in an audition reel. The in stan tl y forgettabl e "Taxi" is a major misfire for Latifah and Fallon, both trying to _establish bi g-sc reen careers 111 starnng role s. Fallon, recently departed from "Saturday Night Live,'' has better prospects with next year's Farrelly brothers come" dy "Fever Pitch," in which he co-starswith Drew Barrymore. Latifah h<e' been on a solid rise to top billing with "Bringing Down the House," her Academy Award-nominated tum in "Chicaoo:· and a feisty bit in " Barb;;rshop 2: Back in Business." Next year's "Beauty Shop," . her "BartJershop" spinoff. will be Latifah's real test as lead player.

Yet it produces nearly comparable torque of 235 foot-pounds at 4.000 rpm . It is standard on all Laredo models and powers the two-wheel -drive Grand Cherokee well. But it has less power than tl1e Six-cylinder engrnes in the Explorer and TrariBiazer. It's also not a fuel m1ser. In the test vehicle, I managed only 15.7 mpg in mostly city driving.

Carving jack-o ·-lanterns is a Halloween custom brought to this country by Irish immigmnts arriving to escape "the Hunger," or the Great Potato Famine of the 1840s. "A legend grew up about a man named Jack. who was so stingy he was not allowed into heaven when he died." a U.S. State Department publication says. ''He couldn't enter hell, either, because he had played jokes on the devil. As a result. Jack had to walk the Earth with his lantern until Judgment Day." The Irish began the "Jack of the Lanterns" or jack·o· lantern tradition by slicing frightening facial features into turnips. beets or potatoes. " But when th e Iri sh brought their customs to the United States, they carved faces on pumpkins because in the autumn they were more plentiful than turnips." the State Department says. The practice eventually . spread worldwide. becoming in the process an enduring sy mbol of Halloween and the autumn harvest. Pumpkins are native to the Americas. Historians believe they were fe atured on the first thanksgi vi ng Day menu - ·· probably cut into strips and roasted by the Indians. Increasingly, a strong back can be more important than a green thumb for growing pumpkins. It isn't uncommon for some of the larger hybrids to produce fruit weighing more than I .200 pounds. says Everett Davi s. who directs the North Carolina State University Cooperative at Extension Center Lumberton. ."Certain varieties grow much larger than the typical , but thev ' re not all that edible." Davis says. "Folks that grow the giant pumpkins take things very seriously. They give their plants meticulous care . They treas ure their seeds. making them family heirluonK" The world's record runs well over IJOO pounds. Fanciers predict th at with the right seeds and the proper nurturing, it won't be long before pumpkins are produ ced that top a ton in size. Pumpkins are grown most often for their ornamental value although they're also a popular ingredient - often used interchangeably with squash or sweet potatoes in pies. so ups, stews and breads. among other things. "Most people don't take the time to cook like that anymore ," Davis says. "The Con nectic ut fie ld varie ty (w ith pumpkins maturing at l 0 to 20 pounds apiece) is usually grow n for jack-o'lanterns . Miniatures the size of softball s are used for displays on tables ... Pumpkins favored for cooking - the sweet or small sugar varieties - usually are planted in spring and mature by mid-summer. Davis says. Ornamentals can be planted as late as Jul y. making them ripe for harve st by Hallowee n. Figure II 0 to 120 days to maturity. Most pumpkin cultivars are fragile. They're espec ially susceptible to frosts at planting and when nearing harvest. If you live in an area with a short growing season , you would be wise to start the plants indoo rs and then transplant the seedlings after the ave rage date of the last killing frost. Pumpkins need plenty of elbowroom. with a single vine grow ing to more than 30 feet in length. But the vines are pliant .

Since the average pumpkin is about 80 percent water. it figures they need a steady suppl y of moisture to make it to maturity. "Pumpk ins crave a lot of direct sun: anywhere from six to I0 hours a day,' ' Dav is says. ··And watering is important. Most of the people striving for re co rd sized pumpkins use trickl e down system s that provide constant water to the plants. You can provide fertilizer throug h the water to enrich ."
