WElJNESDAY, FEDRUARY 19 , 2003

Tuesday afternoon, said.
"The restoration effort in southern Ohio and Mason Counfy,
W.Va., includes more than 350
employees from AEP, contractors
and other utility companies. "
"The largest concentration of
workers is in Scioto, Gallia and
Mason counties, and access to
damaged facilities remains difficult in some areas due to fallen
trees."
AEP reported 18,033 customers
without power in the Point
Pleasant, W.Va., area. Those customers might wait until Friday for
. restoration of service, according
to AEP's news release.

The utility company advised
customers to be cautious around
fallen poWer lines because they
carry an electrical current that can
cause serious or fatal injury.
AEP also asked residents who
use backup generators to notify
the power company.
These generatorsJ'ose a hazard
to line workers an customers if
they are not property installed,
AEP said.
"The problem arises when
power from backup generators
feed power onto distribution lines,
which can electrocute personnel
working on the lines.
"On the other hand, power from

AEP lines can feed into the gener· ·
ator and cause a fire at a residence. To avoid these hazards, be
sure to have a backup generator
installed by a licensed electrician,
and be sure that it has a manual
transfer switch to isolate it from
the power grid."
. AEP also issued the following
safety checklist to customers without power:
• Don't operate lanterns, heaters
or fuel -fired cook stoves without
adequate ventilation.
• Always refuel appliances outside, away from flames , or sparks.
• Wipe up fuel spills immediately.

• Do not burn charcoal. indoors
because it releases carbon monox.ide.
• Don't allow children to carry

• Turn off all major appliances

MIDDLEPORT - "I
was so cold Sunday night
that I couldn't sleep, so I
called
the
sheriff's
department and they suggested I come here."
Joyce Romines of
Racine and her family are
among the 60 Meigs
County residents who
took refuge in emergency
shelters in Pomeroy,
Middleport and Syracuse
Monday, awaiting the
return of electricity and
other essential serv1ces.
Shelters were established Monday at thq old
Veterans
Memorial
Hospital in Pomeroy,
Victory Baptist Church m
Middleport and at the
Syracuse firehouse, following the weekend's

severe snow and ice
storm, to accommodate
those residents without
heat and other utility services.
Those shelters will
remain open until the residents staying in them are
able to return to safe,
heated shelters of their
own, according to Robert
Byer, Meigs County
Emergency management
director.
Byer said residents
have come and gone from
the shelters since they
were opened, but most of
those who lWrived at the
shelters have remained.
Those in shelters reprePomeroy,

"Some of these folks
have made quick trips

home to check their heat

have left for good, but
most of them are here for
the duration," Byer said.
"l have no idea how
long this is going to last,
but I anticipate additional
power outages when ice
begins to melt from tress
and power lines, so we' II
probably be here for a

Radiation pills
popular near
Davis-Besse plant
PORT CLINTON (AP) More people than expected
have picked up packets of
pills that can give limited
protection from radiation in
a nuclear accident.
About one-third of Ottawa
County's 20,000 residents
who live near the DavisBesse nuclear plant have
gotten the two free potassiurn iodide pills, said Jim
Greer, head of the county's
emergency
management
agency.
Officials expected that
only 10 percent of the people
would want the pills.
"It's way over what any of
us anticipated," Greer said.
The
U.S.
Nuclear
Regulatory Commission is
offering the pills to the 33
states with nuclear reactors.
The federal agency is paying
for Ohio's 640,000 . .
The pills will go to anyone
within I 0 miles of two
nuclear power plants along
Lake Erie and those in
Columbiana County who are
close to the Beaver Valley
plant
in
western
Pennsylvania.

Coupons for the pills were
mailed to Ottawa County
residents in January. They
could redeem the coupons
for the pills at pharmacies
and the health department.
While more packets than
expected were handed out,
the county still has more
than 120,000 pills. Some
will be stored in other counties and some will be saved
for summer residents who
have cottages along Lake
Erie.
The pills don't protect
against all radiation. They
guard tlie thyroid gland from
radioactive iodine, which
causes cancer and can be
released in huge plumes in
atomic explosions. They
protect against thyroid cancer and other diseases.
The pill works by filling
the thyroid gland, which
absorbs iodine, with harmless iodine before radioactive iodine can get in.
It is supposed to be taken
shortly after a nuclear accident and is effective for 24
hours.

Volunteers to help poor coffee
growers improve business
CINCINNATI CAP) After helping to keep coffee

these people for 20 years.
How do you walk away
from that?" Fazzio said.
"All my life I've basically
spent in the coffee business.
It's kind of a part of me."
Margaret Swallow, executive director of the Coffee
Quality Institute, said she is
promoting the Coffee Corps
at industry conferences and
already has about 50 volunteers.
There is no target for the
number needed. The length
of assignments could vary
from days to weeks,
depending on the tasks and
the availability of volunteers.
Swallow said she anticipates that the government's
$500,000 contribution can
fund operations for two
years while the program is
established.
Fazzio, the mother of a
grown son, expects that her
volunteer duties could
range widely.
Advice may be needed on
soil preparauon, harvesting
techniques and selective
sampling of the product to
better determine its marketability. Volunteers also
could be asked to help set
up schools and health facilities in poor, rural communities.
"Here's the hammer.
Here's the nail$. Help us put
up the walls," Fazzio said .

WASHINGTON (AP) President Bush declared on
Tuesday that he wouldn't be
deterred by global protests
against war with Iraq; saying "I respectfully disagree"
with those who doubt that
Saddam Hussein is a threat
to peace.
· He said such a war
·remains a final resort, but
"the risk of doing nothing is
even a worse option as far
as I'm concerned."
Amid heavy oppositic:m at
the United Nations and
protests around the world,
the Bush administration
faced a decision whether to
push ahead with Britain for
a new Security Council resolution to support war to
disarm Iraq .
Senior Bush advisers are
considering whether it was
worth risking defeat in the
council and how to phrase a
new resolution in a bid for
support, a U.S. official told
The Associated Press.
Bush said that the size of
the protests against a possible U.S.-led war against
Iraq was irrelevapt.
"Size of protest, it's like
deciding, ' Well I' m going
to decide policy based up on
a focus group.' The role of a
leader is to decide policy
based upon the secunty in this case - security of
the people ."
Millions of people around
the world took to the streets
over the weekend to protest
such a war.
"Democracy is a beautiful
thin'g," Bush said, adding
that "people are allowed to
npress their opinion."
"Some in the world don't
view Saddam Hussein as a
risk to peace," he added. "I
respectfully disagree."
Bush said that Saddam
Hussein continued to pose a
very
real
threat
to
Americans and to the world
- a message he pressed in
a phone call on Monday to
Crown Prince Abdullah of
Saudi Arabia, a key ally in
the region who has ~ues­
'tioned the need for military
action in Iraq. .·
The president expressed
confidence that the United

States would come up with
an acceptable aid package
for Turkey, a close U.S. ally
in the region who will play
a vital role if there is military
action
aga inst
Baghdad.
Bush said Turkey has "no
better friend than the
American government" and
that Washington and Ankara
were still working out
details of an aid package.
The U.S. military plans to
use bases in Turkey both for
aircraft and for ground
forces in the event of an
attack on Turkey's neighbor
to the south.
Bush indicated that he
was running out of patience.
Asked if he planned to set
an ultimatum for Saddam 's
compliance, Bush suggested that would be pointless,
like extending "another,
another,
another
last
chance."
"He knows my feelings,
and that is, he needs to disarm completely and
totally disarm. He's a fellow
that likes to buy time and
buy it through deception
and delay."
The
global
anti-war
protests have put the White
House on the defensive.
Presidential spokesman Ari
Fleischer began his daily
briefing by reading newspaper clips about demonstrations against the staging of
missiles in Germany in the
early 1980s, and said, "This
is not the first time there
have been mass protests and
in a previous instance
America stood on principle
... and as a result the Berlin
Wall came down."
He also told reporters that
former President Franklin
Roosevelt
overcame
protests from isolationists
to lead American into World
War II.
"Often the message of
protesters is contradicted by
history," he said.
Next weekend, Bush will
meet with a European supporter, Prime Minister Jose
Maria Aznar of Spain, at the
president's ranch in Texas.

WASHINGTON (AP) investment
Wall Street
banker
William
H.
Donaldson was sworn in
Tuesday as chaif111an of the
Securities and Exchange
Commission at a White
House
ceremony
with
President Bush, a family
friend who called the new
chief "the right man at the
right time."
"Bill will be a strong leader
of the FCC and forceful
advocate . of the interests of
investors ," Bush said .. "Bill
Donaldson has spent a career
pr~paring for this challenge."
The 71-year-old former
New York Stock Exchange
chairman replaces Harvey
Pitt, who resigned under fire
in early November after a
series of political missteps.
Donaldson promised his

agency will rebuild investor
confidence shattered by last
year's wave of corporate
scandals.
"We will hold accountable
all those who have violated
the public trust. We will
demand responsible corporate governance throughout
the business and financial
world," he said after being
sworn in. "We will strengthen
ollr market structure, making
the markets more efficient,
more transparent and friendlier to all mvestors, particularly small investors.'
During his Senate confirmation hearing earlier this
month, Donaldson said if
confirmed, he would aggressively enforce corporate antifraud rules. He also said his
highest priority is selecting a

new chairman of the board
overseeing the accounting
industry.
The SEC now has expanded powers and new rules
under legislation enacted by
Congress last summer to
combat company fraud,
enhance corporate accountability and tighten oversight
of
the
scandal-tainted
accounting industry. In addition, Bush asked Congress
this month for an $841 million budget for the SEC,
marking the biggest jump in
the agency's history as it

POMEROY - A new regimental history on the !16th
Ohio Volunteer Infantry, in
which many Meigs Countians
served·along with soldiers from
surrounding counties, is being
published by Gerald Early of
Goddard, Kan.
"Since the last day of the Civil
War, more than one book a day
has been published on this fouryear event making it the most
published topic in world history," said Ketth Ashley, a member of the Brooks-Grant 7, Sons
of Union Veterans.
However, he said that rarely
are books published on the history of a single regiment.
'That's why the SUV and the
local Maj. Daniel McCook
Circle No. I04, Ladies of the
Grand Army of the Republic are
so pleased to announce a new
book written on a locally raised
regiment," Ashley said.
Ashley described a Civil War
regiment as having "no definite
number of men in it."
The 116th Ohio Volunteer
Infantry fought in the battles of
Moorfield, Romney, Bunker
Hill, Wmchester, Mt. Crawford,
Raid of Lynchburg, Snicker's
Ferry, Second Winchester,
Halltown, Berryville; Opequan,
Fisher's Hill, Cedar Creek, Ft.
Gregg, High Bridge and was
present at the surrender of
Robert E. Lee at Appomattox.

NATIONAL VIEW

Irrelevant
United Nations is ajoke
• Mobile (Ala.) Register, on going to war with Iraq without
the U.N.:
.
Concerning Iraq. the United Nations Security Council
should now be treated as irrelevant.
At least 34 nations, including most of Europe and many in
the Arab world, back the United States in its aim of ridding the
world of Saddam Hussein. Considering the moral case for
American-led action, there is no good reason to be concerned
about a possible French veto of military action against Iraq ....
Only five nations- the United States, Great Britain, China,
Russia and France - enjoy such a veto. The French veto in
no way, however, represents an accurate assessment of
Frances power or its moral standing. It's been an anachronism since the United Nations' founding after World War IIa war in which France collapsed like a bad card-house.
As for the United Nations as a whole, it's a joke these days.
Consider that, with nary a peep of protest from most of
Eumpe, Libya recently was voted in as the chairing nation of
the U.N. panel on human rights. Yes, that Libya: the Libya of
Muammar Ghadafi, who heads one of the world's most brutal
and repressive regimes ....
Meanwhile, in an example of absolutely sick irony, the next
nation slated to chair the U.N. panel on disarmament is none
other than Iraq ....
End the charade. If the Security Council wants to endorse
military action, so much the better. But the United States
should go forward with American plans regardless.

TODAY IN HISTORY
BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Today is Wednesday, Feb. 19, the 50th day of 2003. There
are 315 days left in the year.
Today's Highlight in History:
Two hundred years ago, on Feb. 19, 1803, Congress voted
to accept Ohio's borders and constitution. (However,
Congress did not get around to formally ratifying Ohio statehood until 1953.)
On this date:
In 1807, former Vice President Aaron Burr was arrested in
Alabama. (He was subsequently tried for treason and acquit·
ted.)
In 1846, the Texas state government was formally installed
in Austin.
In 1878, Thomas Edison received a patent for his phonograph.
In 1881, Kansas became the first state to prohibit all alcoholic beverages.
In 1942, President Franklin Roosevelt signed an executive
order &amp;iving the military the authority to relocate and intern
Japanese- Americans as well as Japanese nationals living in
the United States.
'
In 1942, about 150 Japanese warplanes attacked
the
Australian city of Darwin.
In 1945, during World War II, some 30,000 U.S. Marines
landed on lwo Jima, where they began a month-long battle to
seize control of the island from Japanese forces.
In 1963, the Soviet Union informed President Kennedy it
would withdraw "several thousand" of an estimated 17,000
Soviet troops in Cuba.
In 1983, thirteen people were found shot to death at a gambling club in Seattle's Chinatown district in what became
known as the "Wah Mee Massacre." (Two Chinese immigrants were convicted of the killings.)
lri 1997, Deng Xiaoping, the last of China's major
Communist revolutionaries, died.
Ten years ago: President Clinton's economic plan won
praise from Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan. The
president, visiting Hyde Park, N.Y., suggested the United
States might have to consider a national sales tax "not too long
in the future," then said he'd meant in 10 years or so.
Five years ago: U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan set out
for Iraq on a last -chance peace mission, saying he was "reasonably optimistic" about ending the standoff over weapons
inspections without the use of force. At the Nagano Olympics,
Austrian Hermann Maier won the men's giant slalom while
Hilde Gerg of Germany won the women's slalom.
One year ago: President Bush opened a two-day visit to
Sduth Korea . Peru's justice minister ruled out a presidential ·
pardon for Lori Berenson after the Supreme Court confirmed
the American woman 's 20-year sentence for aiding leftist
rebels. In Salt Lake City, victories by bobsledders Jill Bakken
and Vonetta Flowers gave the United States 21 medals in the
Winter Games; Flowers became the first black athlete ever to
win a gold medal at the Winter Olympics.

The oldest, continuous hatred
During her extensive travels in remote countries,
anthropologist
Margaret
Mead once found a primitive
tribe that was virulently anti·
Semitic. Yet, not one tribal
member had ever seen a Jew.
If that primitive tribe discovered by Margaret Mead
still exists, I would not be
surprised if it continues to
nurture anti-Semitism. But
even in Europe, with its long,
intimate memory of the lethal
effects ·of Jew-hatred, a
Washington Post editorial
last June noted that "the sad
reality is that anti-Semitism
has no more died away in
Europe than racism has in the
United States."
Often overlooked is how
extensively anti-Semitism
permeates Canada, which
claims to prize its openness
to all cultures and its courts'
intolerance to bigotry.
Having
appeared on
Canadian television and
radio networks, and having
greatly enjoyed wandering
around Montreal and Toronto
and the rugged areas · of
Saskatchewan, I have pleasant memories of Canada. But
with anti-Semitism on the
rise even in Scandinavian
countries, let alone a forgetful Germany, I was not surprised that Canada is now no
more immune to Jew hating
than I was by the number of
active American Web sites
dedicated to anti-Semitism.
In an editorial last
Christmas, the Jerusalem
Post reported that "with
360,000 Jews, Canada is

r---:--:::::-,

Nat
Henthoff

home to the fifth-largest
Jewish community outside of
Israel, and Amenca's northem neighbor has long prided
itself for its tolerance, openness, and freedom. But that
legacy is now under assault
amid a spate of recent, and
deeply troubling, incidents."
Even before the Post's
report, I already knew that a
student. riot at Montreal's
Concordia University had
prevented the not easily
mtimidated
Benjamin
Netanyahu from speaking
there
last · September.
Fomenting the violence was
not onll fury at Israel's treatment o Palestinians, but also
plain old traditional, borderless anti-Semitism. To add a
touch of history to the hooliganism, riot eyewitnesses
said a 73-year-old Holocaust
survivor was kicked in the
groin during an assault.
Aside from Concordia
University students' contempt for freedom of speech,
the Jerusalem Post added that
"over the past 12 months,
there have been more than
300 anti-Semitic incidents in
Canada, or nearly one every
day. Four synagogues have

been the targets of arson
attacks, Jewish day schools
have received bomb threats,
and there have been numerous property crimes and hate
propaganda against Jews and
the1r institutions."
There has also been a religion-directed murder.
In July, outside a kosher
restaurant in Toronto, an
Orthodox
Jew,
David
Rosenzweig, was killed by
(as characterized by the
Jerusalem Post) "a neo-Nazi
skinhead."
But it was last year's particularly incendiary verbal
attack on Jews that sparked
debate
among · many
Canadians. The Dec. 22
Toronto Star reported that
Saskatchewan Indian leader
David Ahenakew, during a
Dec. 13 health policy conference in Saskatoon, referred
to Jews · as a "disease."
Amplifying that· description
in justifying the Holocaust,
he added that "the Jews
owned nearly all of Germany
prior to the war. That's how
Hitler came in. That he was
going to make damn sure that
Jews weren't going to take
over. That's why he fried 6
million of those guys, you
know." Ahenakew does not
come from a primitive village that's cut off from the
outside world and its history.
He apologized after an
uproar
from
many
Canadians.
"Odd;" wrote the Toronto
·Star, "that a member of one
persec~~ted race ... should so
shamelessly stick it to mem·

bers of another persecuted
race. But that is hatred for
you. It's an equal-opportunity game."
Anti-Semitism is "the oldest and most continuous
hatred. It transcends borders
and it transcends time," adds
Manuel Frutschi, national
director of community relations for the Canadian Jewish
Congress.
Meanwhile, the student
body at Concordia University
has stopped funding the
Jewish student group Hillel
and banned it from all activities on campus. And the
Canadian government tried
to cancel the tax-exempt status of the Canadian branch of
Israel's
health-assistance
group Magen David Adorn,
because some of the ambulances the Canadian branch
donated are being used in the
territories
where
both
Palestinians and Israelis live.
The
Canadian
Jewish
Congress intervened · and
stopped the pending cancellation.
"It is time," says the
Jerusalem Post, "for the
Canadian government to step
in and take a firmer stand
against anti-Semitism before
this age-old prejudice claims
any more victims" in
Canada.
Shouldn 't Canadian multiculturalism include Jews?

renowned authority on the
First Amendment and the Bill
of Rights.)

economic policies - led by
new tax cuts totaling $1.3
trillion on top of Bush's
already enacted $1.6 trillion
cuts - then maybe the country should turn back to
demand-side Keynesianism
and try to spend its way to
prosperity.
In their heart of hearts,
members of the Bush team
expect their policies to produce better results than this.
They are counting on a boom
like the one that propelled
President Ronald Reagan to
re-election in 1984.
If so, they should make their
estimates public by publishing
a budget based on so-called
"dynamic scoring" along with
one based on."static scoring."
The dynamic score would
estimate . the effects that tax
cuts would have on growth, tax
revenues and the budget deficit
- putting numbers behind the
administration's claims.
Granted, this would open
the administration up to the
risk that it is relying on "rosy
scenarios." But if it published both a static and a
dynamic estimate, comparisons with actual outcomes
would instruct voters as to
whether supply-side economics has validity.
Publishing both sets of
numbers would be akin to the
"A-team, B-team" exercise
undertaken at the Central
Intelligence Agency when
Bush 's father was director,
testing out competing estimates of the Soviet Union's
strategic might and intentions.
Ever since the Reagan

administration, supply-side
Republicans have dtsparaged
static scoring and boosted
dynamic estimates. Now is
their chance to demonstrate
whether the concept is valid.
In addition to publishing
two budget calculations, the
administration should provide
two other reports - one on
economic history, the other on
long-range planning.
Bush allies assert that
Reagan's 1980s tax cuts not
on Iy caused the economy to
grow temporarily, bitt also
launched the productivity
boom that produced the prosperity of the 1990s:
Democrats
claim,
of
course, that President Bill
Clinton·~ 1993 tax increases
began
closing
budget
deficits, lowered interest
rates and produced the boom.
It would be instructive if
Bush's Council of Economic
Advisers would go through
the old numbers and try to
prove the GOP case. And if
Democratic economists would
produce a counter-case.
Even more important, the
administration should say how
it proposes to get the country
started on meeting the retirement costs of the baby boom
generation, estimated by the
Concord Coalition at $60 triJ.
lion over 75 years.
If the Bush administration
is so confident that supplyside economics works, it
should put out numbers to
back up its rhetoric.

newspaper of Capitol Hill.)

Pirates
The boys of spring ... training, that is
remember
Bechler
BRADENTON, Fla. (AP)
- Steve Bechler was a
good pitcher, but he was an
even
better
friend,
Pittsburgh Pirates catcher
J .R. House said Tuesday,
following the Baltimore
Orioles pitching prospect's
death.
Bechler, a 23-year-old
newlyw~d and expectant
father, died of heatstroke
Monday, less than 24 hours
after a spring training workout that sent his temperature
to 108 degrees.
Bechler and House played
on the same team m the
Arizona Fall League fo.llowing the 200 I baseball
season.
"He was the type of guy
who would pretty much do
anything for you," House
said. "He was a kindhearted
person. It's terrible to see it
happen to him."
The Pirates, who opened
spring training Saturday,
were saddened by Bechler's
death, although only a handful in the organization knew
him.
"We · always got alon~
with the Baltimore guys, '
said pitcher Bobby Bradley,
who became friends with
Bechler in 2000 when they
played against each other in
the low minors. "They're a
good bunch of guys, and
Steve was the best."
House, who met Bechler
on the Maryvale team,
remembers that the pitcher
got off to a good start that
season.
"Toward the end, his arm
started getting tired and the
hitters started getting the
better of him. He was disappointed. I was catching him
at the time and lifted his
spirits. I told him to look at
it in a reasonable way. We
bonded and ever since then
we were friends," House
said.
House and Bechler had a
friendly rivalry about college football. House was a
highly recruited quarterback
from West Virginia who ·'
played baseball in Florida
during the spring and summer. Bechler grew up in
Oregon. ·
"He was a big Oregon fan
and anytime .they did anything good, he'd call me and
ride me about it," House
said. "Anytime they beat a
Florida school, he'd get on
me. I'll miss him."
The Pirates pitchers and
catchers worked out for two
hours Tuesday and at the
conclusion of the workout,
strength and conditioning
coach Frank Velasquez
reminded the players to
drink plenty of water.
Pittsburgh general manager
Dave
Littlefield
addressed Bechler's death
during a . team meeting
before the workout. He said
the team isn't going to
change its conditioning regimen.
"We set up conditioning
requirements that aren't too
taxing on our players and
we don't exceed them,"
Littlefield said. "We do a
thorough check on our play- ·
ers' medical histories and
know what they can and
can't do."
The Pirates have five doctors, six trainers and several
conditioning coaches in ·
camp. The team has water,
Gatorade and an automatic
defibrillator on hand for
each workout.

Tyson: Fight with
Etienne is back on
LAS VEGAS (AP) suddenly
Mike !¥son
changed h1s mind Tuesday,
saying his bout with Clifford
Etienne is back on.
The unpredictable former
heavyweight
champion
chartered a private jet to
Memphis ,
Tenn.,
and
planned to fight Etienne as
scheduled Saturday, manager Shelly Finkel said.
"He woke up today and
called and said, 'I want to do
it,"' Finkel said. "He's leaving today."
The decision came less
than 24 hours after Tyson's
camp called off the fight.
The about-face was the
latest in a series of twists
bizarre even by Tyson's
standards.
It got even stranger when
Etienne said later he was so
disgusted that he would not
fight. Cooler heads prevailed, though, probably
because Etienne will earn
close to $1 million for the
fight, his biggest payday
ever.

·Hamilton County doesn't want
Brennaman's line on ballpark
CINCINNATI (AP) - A line made
famous by Cincinnati Reds announcer Joe
Nuxhall is displayed at the team's new ballpark, but county officials won't allow a signature signoff line by fellow announcer
Marty Brennaman.
Great American Ball Park already displays
radio announcer Nuxhall' s longtime closin¥,
line "rounding third and heading for home '
in red neon on the stadium's exterior.
But Hamilton County officials rejected the
Reds' request to also displaX the line "this
one belongs to the Reds, ' which radio
announcer Brennaman has uttered for years
to mark a Reds victory.
The county owns the stadium, which residents paid to build thro11gh a sales tax
increase. Displaying Brennaman's line could
give the impression that the Reds are the stadium's owner, rather than a tenant, county

officials said.
John Allen, the Reds' chief operating officer, said he understands the county's concern.
"It doesn't belong to the Reds. It belongs
to Hamilton County," Allen said. "It's $250
million of taxpayer money."
But Brennaman was irked.
"For them to say people are going to confuse my phrase with the Reds saying that the
ballpark belongs to them is ridiculous,"
Brennaman said: "I say, ' This one belongs to
the Reds, not 'this ballpark belongs to the
Reds."'
The new ballpark opens with a March 28
exhibition game against the Cleveland
Indians. The season opener is March 31
against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

subscribers.
After the fight was called
off, Showtime executives
decided to move an undercard
headed by Olympian Jeff
Lacy to Bally's hotel-casino
in AtlantiC City and televise it
along with some interviews
with Tyson and Etienne in
place of the main event.
"We actually pulled off an
amazing logistical task in 24
hours," Showtime boxing
chief Jay Larkin said. "I
assure you this is not a publicity stunt. We went to
astounding gymnastics to pull
this off."
Once the most fearsome
heavyweight around, "JYson
has shown little inclination to
fight in recent years and has
lost three of his last nine
fights, two by knock•;mt.
Tyson fought an average of
only five rounds a year in the
last 5 112 years - and eight
of those came while he was
taking a beating in his fight
against Lewis.
"Everybody should J·ust
throw up their hands an let
this guy live whatever life he
has. Forget about putting him
in the ring," rival promoter
Bob Arum said. "It's almost
cruel now."
But Finkel said Tyson

"In the crazy world of Mike
Tyson, one thing you have to
know is Mike "JYson will
always be in demand," Finkel

been planned both as a comeback fight and a tuneup fight
for a possible rematch with
Lewis.

eliminate a hitch in the delivery.
Anderson said he is making
progress but knows that the
true test will come when the
exhibition games begin. The
Reds' exhibition season
begins with a Feb. 27 game
against the New York
Yankees in Tampa.

probation period.
"He knew he was running
the risk that he would give up
early termination of his probation," Lage said.
The 38-year-old Canseco
and his twin brother1 Ozzie,
fought with two men at a
nightclub in Miami Beach on
Oct. 31, 200 I. Jose Canseco
pleaded guilty the next

ACROSS 40 So-so

Soldier's wife hurt when
his parents ignore her
DEAR ABBY: For the two
I've been married to
'John," I have known his pareilts wished he had married
~omeone other than me. They
have never accepted me or
_ tried to get to know me as a
daughter-in-law. Family is
important to me. All I ever
hoped was that they'd give
me half a chance.
: I've told John how I feel.
He has yet to stand up for me.
What upsets me is his mom
and dad are nice to my face
and in John's presence, but
when he isn't around the&gt;'
ignore me. It's like I'm invistble.
·
My husband is in the mUitary. During the past year he
has been away on active duty,
his parents have never once
invited me to spend a holiday
or any other time with them. I
am always the one to reach
out. John is due home next
month, and I know my inlaws will try to "make ni.ce"
with me for his benefit - but
it's all fake.
If they truly wanted to get to
know me, they would have
tried while I was alone. (I live
less than a mile from them.) I
am sad, hurt and angry about
the way I've been treated in
my husband's absence. I love
him more than anything, but
my biggest fear is that when

r.ears

Dear
Abby
ADVICE
we're reunited, my feelings
toward his folks will have a
spillover effect on our marnage. What can be done,
MISERABLE
Abby? DAUGHTER-IN-LAW IN
NORFOLK, VA.
DEAR
MISERABLE
DAUGHTER-IN-LAW:
When your husband returns,
impress upon him the fact that
his parents never called or
invited you to join them in his
absence. It's a shame to have
to put him in the middle, but
these are his parents and if
they'll listen to anybody, it's
most likely him.
In the meantime, develop
other emotional resources with
other military families. When
a loved one goes on active
duty, it's not unusual that those
left behind are on an emotiona1 roller-coaster. Other wives
(and husbands) can appreciate
how you feel. Perhaps you can
support each other.

DEAR
ABBY:
My
boyfriend, "Harvey," and I
became engaged over the holidays. We are beginning to
plan our wedding. Harvey
was raised Jew ish. I was
raised Catholic. We envisioned a ceremony with both
a priest and a rabbi.
However, Harvey's parents
have informed us that they
will not attend if a priest is
present. One solution mi~ht
be to be married by a jusuce
of the peace, but my parents
want a "man of God" to preside.
Harvey and I are willing to
do whatever it takes to please
our parents, but we are having
a d1fficult time reaching a
compromise. Also, my parents are paying for the entire
wedding, so I'm not sure if
that gives them more "say" in
the matter or not. Please help.
- MARRIAGE BOUND
AND IN A BIND
DEAR
MARRIAGE
BOUND: Before you and
Harvey make any more plans,
it might be helpful for both
sets of parents to get together
socially. If there is no ... meeting of the minds," I urge you
and your fiance to get premarital counseling - preferably
from a nondenominational
counselor. The problems you
have

Harvey's parents are, just the
beginning. You and he must
come to a clear understanding
now about how your children
will be raised. If it's anything
other than Jewish, I see major
family problems and conflicts
ahead for you because of his
parents' stance.

There may be a number of enterprises you could get into in
the year ahead. but one in particular will stand out above the
rc". Although it might be the
most ambitious, it'll offer the
hll'gest rewards us well.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
-

Be ruir today in situations

where you arc dividing up the
mutual resources of a group involvement. If it looks like your
pile nf goodies is larger than the
rest. it'll make you look greedy.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
- Because you might not be too
fond of the source. you could
turn a deaf ear to some wise ad·

vice today. Being closed·minded
is not the way to serve your best
interests.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
-You could neglect an important job that should be taken care
of today just because it's not designed neatly enough for your
tustcs. Neglect will put you in a
bad light.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
- Instead of judging someone

solely on one past unpleasant incident , give this person a second
chance today to redeem himself
or herself. We all do something
dumb from time to time.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
- Dictatorial methods will nut
achieve desirable results tmJay
when dealing with those in your
ch;orge. Conversely. respect.
constdcration and kindness work

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
- Should yo u be unduly put

MIDDLEPORT - The
bloodmobile scheduled for
the Senior Citizens Center in
Pomeroy Wednesday was
canceled by the American
Red Cross because of bad
road conditions and power
outages, and was rescheduled
for Saturday in Middleport.
The visit there will be held
from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the

Middleport Church of Christ,
437 Main St.
According to Cheryl
Gergely, spokesperson with
the Tri-State Division Blood
Services office in Huntington,
W.Va., area blood supplies are
being steadily depleted and
there is an urgent need.
She said that because of the
weather, several bloodmobile
visits have been canceled in
the collection area, resulting
in more than a thousand

potential units of blood not
being collected.
"For that rea5on, we are
urging all eligible donors to
give blood as soon as possible
because of the heavy dependency on it from area hospitals," she added.
All but two of the blood drives scheduled for Monday
were canceled due to inaccessibility of some blood drive

REEDSVILLE _ The past
few days have been chaotic
. for many people trying to
survive last weekend's winter storm, but for Reed's
Country Store in Reedsville ,
it has been busy.
People have practically
looted the shelves of milk,
bread and other necessities in
order to survive the great
storm of 2003.
According to store owner
Dormand Reed, the store has
sold more . than 600 gallons
of kerosene since the storm
began, and is currently sold
out.
There has also been a run
on
unleaded
gasoline,
because the power outage in
neighboring Coolville and
Hockingport has rendered
gas pumps in these areas useless.
While Reed's store still has
the premium grades of gasoline, the store ran out of
unleaded early this week.
Reed is optimistic that gas
trucks will be able to make it
through soon, but is realistic
enough to recognize that this
is out of his hands.
By Reed 's count, more
than 650 customers have
come 'through his store in the
past couple of days. At least
six clerks and Reed himself
have been working frantical ly to keep friends a!Jd neigh-

bors prepared for what he
described as one of the worst
storms in a decade.
Reed described. Monday as
a calamity. The week ahead
did not appear to offer any
relief for the dedicated workers and owner.
"It was not just one a day
race, but the whole weekend," Reed said.
More than 80 to 100 galIons of milk have been sold,
leaving empty shelves until a
fresh milk delivery arrives.
Reed, who knows how
important his store is to tfle
community during the storm,
took a chance.
Realizing the bread delivery truck might be late,
maybe even later in coming,
than he planned because of
the harsh weather and icy
roads, Reed drove to
Pomeroy to pick up some
bread and supplies for his
t
.
s ore.
Other local stores have
also been busy.
G &amp; M store provides
propane to many people in
the county. Carolyn Buckley
said the store has sold more
than 780 gallons of propane
gas in the last couple of days.
Ordinarily, the store holds
an average of 500 gallons of
· propane. but the weather has
nearly depleted supplies.
As of Wednesday, the store
was sold out but expects
fresh supplies in soon.

Darwin and Pageville areas and
Bearwallow Ridge and Elk Run
Road have gone without water
due to intenupted electrical ser. VIce.
The lack of electricity has
resulted in low water suppli~ ·i!t
tanks · in those communities,
Poole said, especially in the
Bearwallow Ridge area. where
,
a small tank is in place.
"We've had some close calls,
but service in most areas has
been unintenuP,ted here in
Mei~s County, ' Poole said.
"We ve only had about 30 customers go without water, and
we're moving a generator from
tank to tank to see that the tanks
are filled and P.roviding as much
water as posstble."
Leading Creek, which serves
2, I00 customers, has borrowed
generators from water systems
in Little Hocking and in Dayton,
and has begun to restore service
at its Cheshire-area well field,
according to Manager Martin
Broderick.
A power outage at the field
interrupted water production
Sunday evening, and by
Thesday, water in all storage
tanks was depleted, Broderick
said.
