Bouquet and garter toss:
Variations on a theme
DEAR ABBY: A young
married woman said she and
her mother were at odds
about the tradition of tossing
the bouquet and bride's
garter at weddings. You said,
"Because catching a bouquet
or garter is no guarantee the
person will be the next to
marry (it's 'up for grabs'), I
see no reason why any guest
should be excluded."
Well, I disagree! I perform
disc jockey and video services for weddings. I have
seen little girls and boys with
bloody noses, skinned knees
and elbows, etc. Would you
send an 8-year-old to play
football at your local college? For liability reasons, I
specifically note in my contract that tf the bride insists
on including guests under
16, I am not liable for
injuries. Insurance companies don't like to cover stupidity.
Please rethink this one,
Abby! - BRENT YACIW,
WESLEY CHAPEL, FLA.
DEAR BRENT: . Your
point is · well taken . I
received a ton of terrific mail
on tossing wedding bouquets
and garters, and will share as
much of it as possible:

is tacky and sbould be eliminated. It's embarrassing to

friends and family. It's
almost as bad as watching
the new couple smash cake
in each other s face.- J.H.,
MELROSE, N~Y.
DEAR ABBY: When I
married, I had a candy toss
for anyone 12 or under. It
worked wonderfully. The
kids had fun and were part of
the festivities. JEN·
NIFER IN FREMONT,
OHIO
DEAR ABBY: For guests
16 and under, we tossed a
teddy bear dressed like a
bride, and did the same for
the boys with a groom bear. • BECKY IN HURST,
TEXAS
DEAR ABBY: I am a
florist. Many brides order a
small bouquet to toss to the
little girls, and they either
toss their own bouquet or an
· extra (large) one to the big
girls.
-RON
D.,
BELLEVILLE, ILL.

DEAR ABBY: The custom
is, whoever catches the
garter must put it high on the
leg of the woman who catches the bouquet At one wedding I attended, a 9-year-old
boy caught the garter and
then sat at the feet of the lady
who caught the bouquet and
sobbed for 10 minutes
because he was so humiliated. Children should not be
subjected to this. KATHY Illf FORT LEE,
N.J.
DEAR ABBY: As the
mother of two little girls, I
do not want anyone touching
their legs. As a wedding DJ,
here's how I handle the
garter toss: I have the little
girl sit in a chair with her
arms out and her hands in a
prayer position. I then give
the male the garter and he
has three chances to toss it
over tier hands. No one is
touched, and it's perfectly
innocent The kids love it.
Remember, kids are just
adults in training. - LORI
LEE, A DJ IN HORSEHEADS, N.Y.
DEAR ABBY: I have been
a caterer for more than 20
years. A classy alternative is
this one: The bridal couple
asks all married guests to
stand. Then, in multiples of
five or 10 years, they are
asked to stt down when

BY BERNICE BEDE OsOL
A couple of events and hap·
penings could turn out 10 be
of t£emendous significance
for you in the year ahead and
. completely revise your philosophical outlook. Your new
views will strengthen your
character and expectations.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March
20) - If financial developments have presently been
running in your favor, now is
the time to lry to do something constructive. It's a period where you can lock
things down to your satisfac·
tion.
ARIES (March 21·April
I 9) - Set I he example today
and be willing lo make concessions when dealin!l with
others. Associates wtll respond in kin~ and act upon
tfte cues you gtve them.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20)- Today is a much betler
day for financial transactions
than yesterday was . Now is
the time lo capitalize on those

exchanges you held off on
hoping they would multiply.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
- A situation may arise today wljere you find yourself
up against someone who usu-

ally ends up outshining his or
her competitors. This lime
you may have the edge.
CANCER (June 21-July
22) - Conditions in general
finally look good for you. so
don't do anything today to
rock the boat. Flow with
events as they unfold instead
of doinll anything that would
alter lhe&amp;r course.
LEO (July 23-A~g. 22) Although some people with
whom you may be dealing today might lack direction and
purpose, you won't let that
hamper you. You know what
you want and. more impor·
tantly, you know how lo get
it.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Something profitable
could spring loose for you today, but it won't be from out
of the blue. It will come from
hard work and preparation.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-0ct. 23)

- You possess a marvelous
faculty today for taking the
ideas or others and reconstructing them into something
extremely promising for yourself. This could occur in two
instances .
.SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
22) - There is a good chance
you could be drawn into a
situation today that has strong
competitive elements involved. Fortunately for you,
the odds will be tilted in your
favor.

The Ohio Bureau of

The investigation included extensive blood tests and

Tuesday those tests were

rejected an offer from the
Village' of Middleport for
the use of the Meigs
Middle School building on
South Third Avenue, once
it is vacated in favor of the
new middle school buildmg.
The board determined
that the cost of converting
the former Middleport
High School building was
prohibitive, but said at the
time it would .continue to
consider
options
for
ex'panding both facilities
and educational programs
at its Mill Street branch.
According to the Meigs
County
Economic
Development
Director
Perry Varnadoe, the CIC in
February offered to construct a new facility and
lease it to the college, at
cost, on the condition the
trustees commit to maintain and expand the Meigs
County operation.
The offer also stipulates
that a new and expanded
college branch remain in
Middleport, Varnadoe said.

Rio Grande offers several

the Middleport branch, and
has announced plans to
expand those course offerings to include a master's
degree pr9gram in fine arts,
courses ·in early childhood

in health care.
Those new course offerings will require additional
space, Sojka said , and the

board will give serious
consideration to the CIC's
offer. The Meigs County
branch was opened on Mill

leased from the CIC.
"The board will look at

WASHINGTON (AP) Attempting to settle a longsimmering dispute, Sen. Mike
DeWine and other lawmakers
'are pushing legislation that
would require drug companies
to extend to children the testing of adult medicines commonly given to kids.
The bill is expected to be

, The offices handle workers ' comp claims by phone
or computer. Most workers
with claims don't file in

A spokesman for Akron
mayor Don Plusquellic said
any job loss is disappointing.
"Jus.t about every city has
had this happen one way or
the other, whether public or
private jobs," sa1d Mark
Williamson. "What the
state does up here is largely
out of our hands."
Warren Mayor Hank
Angelo said the news was
an unpleasant surprise. He
said the bureau's current
Warren office is only seven
years old.

"We fight for every job in

"Children are not ju~t small

CLEVELAND (AP) From household chores to
baby-sitting and shopping, it all
falls to someone else when a
loved one gets called up to military duty. The burden was doubled for retirees Carl and Annie
Stacey.
Their son, Cleveland paramedic Corbin Stacey, 32, and
daughter-in-law, Marcia, 33, an
Akron schoolteacher, both were
called up with the Army
Reserve as the nation headed to
a showdown with Iraq.
Now Carl and Annie Stacey
are single-handedly raising their
grandchildren, Carl Andrew, 4,
and 6-year-{)ld Marche.
''Taking on two young children, that means you have to get
up early every day to send them
to school, there's more launcllr,
to be done, three meals a day, '
the 61-year-old Mrs. Stacey
said.
That kind of burden or a variation has been repeated for the
families of the more than 5, I00
Ohioans who have been called

Students.
rally at
Statehouse
COLUMBUS (AP) About 300 high school
students, parents and
teachers ralhed Thesday at
the Statehouse to protest
cuts in state funding. "We
want money to fund our
schools," said Brock
Leonti, an lith-grader
from Norton in northeast
Ohio.
Dozens of .the students
carried signs with slogans
such as "Cut State
Legislators, Not School
Funding," shouted "Save
our schools" and applauded speakers who criticized
the cuts and what they
called the state's failure to
resolve an 11-year-old
school-funding lawsuit.
'T m here to support my
school," said Kristen
Batche, 16, a sophomore
from Norton. "In order for
us students to have a good
future we need more
money."
Gov. Bob Taft ordered
$1 00 million in cuts- for
primary and secondary
schools two weeks ago to
b~ance the state budget.
The Legislature had rejected his proposal to close a
$720 million deficit by
raising taxes on cigarettes
and alcohol.
The Ohio Supreme
Court has ruled three times
in five years that the
state's school funding system was unconstitutional
because it relies too much
on local property taxes,
favoring rich districts over
poor.
Many districts say the
spending cuts make tight
budget situations worse
and will lead to fewer
teachers and bigger classes
beginning next year.
Leonard Kadel, board
president at Northeastern
Local
Schools
in
Springfield, said state
leaders need to take immediate action to fix the way
Ohio funds schools.
"We're tired of di s'cussing the same issues
over and over with the
governor and legislators,"
he said.

(COs) may be a better choice
because they pay a higher
interest rate and are safe, but
they wi II not be as accessible. COs are purchased from
financial institutions at fixed
interest rates for a specified
term or time period when the
money shouldn' t be touched.
Some earned interest is lost
as a penalty if they are
redeemed early.
Savings Bonds are purchased at half their value.
After several years they
mature at the full amount.
Beginning February I, 2003,
the minimum holdmg period
before being able to redeem
savings bonds inc'reased
from six months to one year.
If bonds ere redeemed before

Stocks may give you a high

hi~her than the original

(interest) on the amount you

COLUMNIST
The term "blue chip stock"
refers to large corporations
which have for years consistently
paid
dividends.
Companies that are doing
well, but use their profits for
development and expansion
are called growth stocks .
Companies whose shares are
expensive in relation to their
earnings are called speculative stocks. People invest in
them because they think their
earnings will skyrocket.
VVhen you buy bonds you
lend money to a company or
government for a certain
length of time . That entity
promises to pay the investor
the amount borrowed plus a
fixed-rate of interest when
the bond matures. The purchase price of a bond is
inversely proportional to
interest rates.
If interest
rates ·are high, then bonds
don't cost as much, and vice
versa. If you buy a $1000
bond and interest rates are
low, the price of the bond
will be high (close to $1000).
If interest rates are high, the
cost of the bond will be less
expensive. At the time of
maturity, you can redeem the
bond for $1000. Some bonds
may ·also pay dividends.
This is known as the coupon
rate.
Municipal bonds for state .
and local governments work
on the same principle. The
money is used to fund
schools, roads and public
facilities.
You probably
won't get as much for your
money as with corporate
bonds, but the interest may
be tax exempt, which can be
a significant benefit.
·
Treasury bills, bonds and
notes are similar to savings
bonds, except they have a
specific maturity date. Junk ·
bonds are corporate or
municipal bonds that are
considered high-risk. You
may get a lot of interest, or
you may get nothing.
We'lllook at other types of
investments later.

American Red Cross prepares for war
BY ToNY M. LEAcH
Staff writer

GALLIPOLIS - In collaboration with the Gallia
County Red Cross, the
Greater
Alleghenies
Region/ American Red
Cross Blood Services has
developed
operational
plans for blood collection
in the event of war with
Iraq.
"The September II ,
2002, attacks on our country proved the need to be
prepared for the unexpected. In the event of war,
we're anticipating the need
to alter our operations in
respon se to the emergency,"
said
Cheryl
Gergely, Tri-State Division
supervisor with the Greater

Alleghenies/ American Red
Cross .
The tri-state division,
based out of Huntington ,
W.Va. , is responsible for all
bloodmobile visits to the
Gallia County area .
Gergely explained the tristate region's plans and
procedures will help the
Red Cross respond to an
increase in the demand for
blood and handle a significant influx of donors .
"Following Sept. II , there
was a massive outpouring
of emotion and people felt
it was their patriotic duty to
give · blood. Area blood
banks and bloodmobiles
were besieged with a large
number of donors," said
Gergely.
"We have a responsibility
to accommodate blood

donors who wish to help
during a crisis while realistically managing our inventory."
"Similar to ivhat our
region did following the
terrorist attacks, in some
instances our plan will
require us to ask blood
donors and sponsors to
reschedule for a later date,
or to ask some donors to
come in sooner because we
have a special need that
they can help us address,"
she said.
Gergely
added
the
region's plan include con solidating blood collections
into lar~er bloodmobile
sites, limtting daily collections once the day's target
goal is reached, and possible limits on donations by
blood donors of certain

not be familiar with classical
~uitar, it is a wonderful
mstrument that provides a
unique sound and beautiful
music. The classical guitar

A gift
Santilian case underscores
need for organ donation
•

• South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Fort Lauderdale, on the
giji of life· The rare dangers, mistakes and failures linked
to organ donations got a lot of puJ:&gt;licity lately. It was
front-page news when a surgeo n botched a teenage girl's
heart-l ung .transplant, by failing to check for an incompatible blood type, and when the sa me g irl got a second transplant that didn't save her life.
.Jesica Santilian was only 17 when she died.
In an ironic twist, Jesica's parents refused to allow her
organs to be donated to help someone else.
. The United Network for Organ Sharing says there are
only two other cases on record nationwide of mismatched
organs being transplanted.
More than 80,400 patients now are on waiting lists for
organ transplant s~ about 750 from South Florida. More
than 6,300 patients die each year because a transplant is
not available. Nearly 23,000 transplant operations were
performed last year, but fewer than 12,000 people donated
organs.
:The organ donation system is. a means to mitigate human
tragedy, fight illness and ease the feelings of permanent
loss after death. Organ donation s save 55 lives each day.
Give the gift of life; become an organ donor.

There are 287 day s left in the year. This is the date the

Today's Highlight in History:
.Fifty years ago, on March 19, 1953, the Academy Awards

Turn off Hollywood's microphone
"Just because we're actors
isn't any reason to give us a
voice on these issues more
than anyone else," said
Hollywood A-lister Bruce
Willis in the March issue of
Men's Journal.
The star of the "Die Hard"
trilogy, whose latest cinematic turn is the military adventure "Tears of the Sun," was
referring to the Tinseltown
activists who somehow think
that just because they appear
on the big or small screen,
they are somehow qualified
to talk politics.
.
For example, Sean Penn
("His temper, his paparazzi
punching and his liquorfueled self-d,~structiveness
are legendary, accordmg to
E!online), paid a three-day .
"fact-finding"
visit
to
B~.ghdad la.st December. .

said Penn, . durmg a n~ws

Not the hands of Saddam
Hussein, the mass-murderer
and dictator, who continues
to defy United Nations
demands that his regime disarm itself. .
Sentiments like Penn's are
fairly widespread in that
cuckoo-land
known
as
Hollywood. It seems that
everyone with a SAG card

Indeed, back in December,

Joseph
Perkins

a hundred-something entertainment types, billing themselves as "Artists for
Winning Without War," sent
a letter to President Bush
admonishing the commander
in chief not to go to war with
Saddarn.
A war with Iraq, according
to the wannabe secretaries of
state "will increase human
suff~ring, arouse animosity
toward our country, increase
the likelihood of terrorist
attacks, damage the economy, and undermine our moral
standing in the world."
And, oh yes, it might interfere with Oscar night.

usual suspects as Martin
Sheen, Mike Farrell, Danny
Glover, Tim Robbins and
Susan Sarandon - ,Pretend

Child prostitute
Michelle said it wasn't
about money, even in the
beginning. She started turning tricks when she was II
and always turned the
money over to her pimp. In
return, he took care of her.
"It was always about the
guy," she said.
I met Michelle (which is
not her real name) two years
ago in San Francisco's
Juvenile Hall . She is 18 now.
There has been much in the
news lately about the sexual
exploitation of children in

other spots around the globe,

streets . I asked Michelle
why. despite being locked up
in Juvenile Hall more than
20 times, she kept returning
to the streets.
"You do it for love, comfort, support," she said. "It's
a man to say 'I love you' to
and sometimes he says it
back. If you feel you have a
good man by your side, you

seem to stem the proliferation of child prostitution.
The problem for girls like
Michelle isn't a damaged
value system but a damaged
psyche. Yet our solution has
been to lock them up as if
they are criminals in need of
punishment instead of victims in need of help.
Now, finally, that might be
changing.
One sign of a possible
shift -comes from the San
Francisco
District
Attorney's office. For the
first time in the city's history, a man who bought sex
from an underage girl is
being charged with statutory
rape and child molestation.
The girl is 14. The man, a
41-year-old San Francisco
resident, was picked up during a police investigatton of

unabashed leftist organization MoveOn.
That group was founded in
1998 to oppose former
President Clinton's impeachment, and it raised more than
$2 million in campaign loot
for the 2000 election, which
went to 30 Democratic congressional
candidates
(including California's Susan
Davis, who unseated former
Rep. Brian Bilbray, the
Republican incumbent).
Now MoveOn is using the
prospect of war against Iraq
as a pretext to attack the
Republican in the White
House. And the useful idiots
on the Hollywood left are
only too happy to help out.
Like Farrell, the putative
co-founder of Artists for
Winning
Without
War.
During a recent online chat
on USA Today's Web site, he
decried "the Bush war on
Iraq," which, he warned,
"will drive great numbers of
people into the arms of
Jihadist terrorists."
Funny that he didn't
describe U.S. military intervention in Kosovo as "the
Clinton war," even though it
was not authorized by the
United Nations.
In fact, during his online
chat, Farrell acknowledged
that he "supported Mr.
Clinton's action on behalf of
the protection of the lives of
Kosovars who were being
slaughtered."
So it was OK, apparently,
in the minds .of Farrell and
his
fellow
Hollywood

activists for their man
Clinton to take action to protect the lives of ·Kosovars.
But it's not OK for Bush to ·
take action to protect ihe
lives of Iraqis living under
Saddam's tyranny.
Even though the Butcher of
Baghdad has demonstrated
that he is quite willing to rain
death upon his own people,
as he did 15 years ago this ,
month, when he massacred
5,000 Iraqi Kurds in a chemical attack on the town of
Halabja.
The American peopl~ see
through Hollywood · hypocrites like Farrell, blameAmerica-first ''celebrities"
like Penn. In fact, nearly 90
percent said they couldn't
think of any entertainment
type who cou'!d get them to
change their view on a political issue, according io a new ·
CNN/USA
Today/Gallup
poll.
That's why, for all the antiwar· activism by groups like
Artists for Winning Without
War, all the sound and fury
against President Bush emanating from Tinseltown, it
signifies next to nothing to ·
the mass of Americans.
They still support the
nation's
commander-in•
chief. They still support
Saddam's removal from
power.

Marianne Barrett, the

Southern High's graduation date changes

RACINE
Southern
Local School Board voted
unanimously to change the
graduation date from May
.18 to May 25 at its meeting
Monday at Southern High
School.
Superintendent
Bob
Grueser said the district
picked up an additional six
snow days beyond the state
mandated allowance of five
snow days, which do not
need to be made up.
Ohio law requires districts
to schedule 182 days of

instruction, but it allows
four of those days to be used
for parent-teacher conferences and teacher professional meetings, a nd · it
allows up to five calamity
days.
Earlier this year, there was
a move by state legislators to
waive the minimum time
requirement for students.
According to Grueser, the
legislative action floundered
when the Ohio Department
of Education came out in
opposition to any proposed
changes in the law.
Grueser and school board
members said they regretted
· the change, but state law

made their position clear.
Graduation will take place
at 8 p.m. Sunday, May 25 at
the Southern High School
gymnasium.
Multiple school districts
statewide have been dealing
with this issue . Students
may face shortened spring
breaks, lengthened sc hool
days, a school year stretched
deeper into June or Saturday
classes.
Eastern Local arid Meigs
Local have also changed
their graduation dates.
The Wellston City School
Board in Jackson County
discussed this issue at its
board meeting last Thursday.

Several st udents attended
the meeting and asked that
the graduation date not be
moved forward a week
because of potential scheduling conflicts with out-oftown relatives who had
already made a commitment
to the graduation date in mid
May.
Other student s ·remarked
that postponing the end of
school would have an impact
on summer jobs. The school
board postponed action on
the issue at its meeting, but
recognized that unless a
solution could be reached,
state law would require a
new graduation date.

U.S. confident in Iraq
campaign, concerned
about terrorism
WASHINGTON (AP) The troops are ready. The war
wagon is about to depart. The
administration is in an upbeat
mood about the outcome of the
impending second Persian Gulf
War. It also is wary of a possible
upsurge in terrorism at home.
An exan1ple of this dichotomy can be drawn from the government's seemingly contrasting messages. It raised the
national terror alert to one notch ·
below the peak level Monday
night, a few minutes after
President Bush had said Iraq's
defeat would reduce the terrorist
threat.
"Before the day of horror can
come, before it is too late to act,
this danger will be removed,"
Bush said in making the case for
going to war against Iraq.
Bush has not been reticent in
outlining the benefits he
believes regime change and disarmament will bring not only to
Iraq but to the Middle East as a
whole.
Three weeks ago, Bush said
victory over Saddam "could
begin a new · stage for Middle
Eastern peace and set in motion
progress toward a truly democratic Palestinian state.'
He also envisions a possible
democratic future in . postSaddam Iraq, allowing the
country to serve "as a dramatic
and inspiring example of freedom ·for other nations in the
region."
Beyond that, he said
Saddam 's demise "will deprive
terrorist networks of a wealthy
patron that pays for terrorist
training and offers rewards to

families of suicide bombers.
And otlier regimes will be given
a clear warning that support for
terror will not be tolerated."
Is Bush overselling his gamble in the Gulf, the frrst major
test of his pre-emptive warfare
strategy? Fonner Sepetary of
State Henry Kissinger believes
he isn't.

part of foreign policy in the
world of proliferation and terrorism. l strongly support what
the president is doing,"
Kissinger told 1lle Washington
TIITies.
But many experts believe war
will only aggravate the peril
faced by the United States. They
contend that al-Qaida recruiters
will have a field day once the
bombing of Iraq begins. Will
there be mass defections by
Iraqi troops when the
Americans ·arrive, or massive
resistance, aided perhaps by
chemical
and
biological
weapons? It's hard to say.
And, barring a quick pullout,
many analysts say it won't be
long before Arab countries view
American troops as occupiers,
further diminishing American
standing in. the Middle East.
Even now,. before hostilities
start, international support for
Bush's policies is spotty at best.
At home, there are worries that
a costly Iraq war will make
existing budget deficits look
puny.
It is the specter of escalating
terrorist attacks, though, that
seem to generate the most concern.

Anti-war activists face special
challenges due to ethnicity, race
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) When Amjad Obeidat marched
at a rally against war with Iraq,
his red and white Arab headdress was a reminller of what
sets him apart from many other
activists.
"I really do feel connected to
the people of that region, to the
people who are going to die,"
said Obeidat, with the' headdre~s
- a gift from his Jordanian
mother - draped around his
neck at a recent San Francisco
demonstration.
With America on the brink of
invading Iraq, many anti-war
activists feel a sense of frustration. But few have faced the difficulties that Arab and Muslim
aetivists say they've encountered in making their voices
heard.
Though their ·reasons for
opposing the war are generally
the same as those of other
activists, many say they're
viewed with suspicion because
of their ethnicity and faith.
"Our motives are questioned
to a certain degree because of
our connection with that part of
the world," said Obeidat, a

member of American Muslims
Intent on Learning and
Activism, a Northern California
advocacy group.
"Somebody might look at us
and say, 'Well you're unpatriotic,' but also, 'You're Muslim.
You're Arab. You're suspect.
Somehow maybe you're a ftfth
column in this country, maybe
you're actually doing this with
sinister motives.'"
To combat such stereotypes,
Shahed Amanullah features a
commentary titled "Memo to
Osama bin Laden: Go To Hell"
on the front page of his Muslim
news and discussion Web site.
"Most Muslims I know
always have to start off by saying, ' Yes, I know Saddam
Hussein is a brutal dictator,"'
said the Oakland engineer.
"People who are not Muslims
can kind of get away with being
more strikingly anti-war than
Muslims can be," he said. "If we
were to say the exact same thing
that someone who wasn't
Muslim was saying, then somehow our basic Americanness
would ,be questioned."

Board preparing initial
recommendations to NASA'·
HOUSTON (AP) - While
an investigative board continues to look into what caused last
month's Columbia accident, it
is preparing to make some suggestions on how NASA can
impt;ove its operations.
Gehman, who is scheduled to
testify before the Senate
Committee on Commerce,
Science, and Transportation on
Thursday, said one of the first
necommendations the board
could make in the next week or
so is that NASA needs to
improve its communications
with other governmental intelli-

gence agencies: He wants the
space agency to better ooordinate how resources such as spy
satellites and telescopes can be
used to photograph the shuttle
during omit to detect problems.
The board suspects that the
heat-shielding
tiles
on
Columbia's left wing were
breached, possibly by insulating
f0301 or other material falling
from the external fuel tank, during the Jan. 16 launch. As it
aimed for a Florida landing on
Feb. I, the shuttle broke apart
. over Texas, killing all seven
astronauts.

The Fed's decision to
hold its key interest rate at
1.25 percent means that
commercial banks' prime
lending rate - the benchmark for many consumer
loans - also will remain at
4.25 p.ercent, the lowest
level since May 1959.
The last time the Fed 's
key interest rate- and thus
the prime rate - was lowerect was on Nov. 6. The
Fed slashed sho{t-term
interest rates by a bold, half
a percentage point, marking
the 12th rate reduction
sinee January 2001.
Tuesday's decision comes
as the probable war, job
losses and higher energy
prices pummel an already
fragile economy. Th~se
negative forces are causmg
consumers and businesses
to become even more cautious. -r:hat 's slowing the

A~ t,~e Fed~ral Reserve
put II, ~he hesitancy of the
economtc
expanston
appears to owe importantly
to oil ·price premiums and
other aspects of geopolitical uncertainties."
As such uncertainties lift,
as most analysts expect,
currently low interest rates
"will provide support to
economic activity sufficient

to engender an improving
economic climate over
time,'' Fed policy-makers
added.
With borrowing costs
staying low, consumers and
business might be induced

President

mostly of tax cuts to help
energize the economy,
which has been struggling
to get back on surer footing
after being jolted by the
2001 recession and the
Sept. II, 200 I, terrorist
attacks.
Even with such monetary
and fiscal help, economists
are still predicting lackluster economic growth in the
coming months.
And, the nation' s unemployment rate also could
creep higher. The jobless
rate rose to 5.8 percent in

LeBron James
jersey donated
to basketball Hall
AKRON (AP) - LeBron
James may never make it to
the pro basketball hall of
fame, but his high school jersey will be there.
St. Vincent-St. Mary coach
Dru Joyce II has agreed to
send a pair of James' shoes,
game jersey, headband and
wristband to the Basketball
Hill! of Fame in Springfield,
Mass.
The hall's assistant curator,
Matt Zeysing, requested the
items several weeks ago.
"LeBron James is recognized as the top high school
player in Amenca, maybe of
all time," said Howie Davis,
the museum's director of
sports media. "In any other
year, if you ask basketball
fans to name the best high
school player in America,
they would give you a variety
of names. Not this year."
James was thrilled· by the
request, Joyce said.
Zeysing said that while it is
not uncommon for the Hall of
Fame to request memorabilia
from high school players, it is
uncommon for the hall to get
the items because high
schools tend to recycle their
equipment for next year's
teams.
The Hall of Fame has high
school jerseys from Kevin
Garnett, Chris Webber and
Michael Jordan, Zeysing
said.

Fed meetings.
"I think the Fed will cut
rates any time if the conflict doesn't go well - that
is the message," said Mark
Zandi, chief economist at
Economy.com .
Conversely, if the United
States wins quickly in Iraq,
then interest rates could
stay at, rock-bottom levels
for some time as the economy tries to get back on
surer footing , economists
said.
Green span and many private · economi sts express
confidence that if the Iraq
crisis is favorably resolved,
the economy will get back
on track.
But "that story is still to
be written,'' said Lynn
Reaser, chief economist at
Bane of America Capital
Management.
For now, though, given
all the uncertainties about
Iraq , Fed policy-makers
said they could not assess
the risks on the economy.
That surpri sed many
economists because the Fed
usually states what it
believes are the greatest
risks facing the economy in
its interest-rate policy
announcements.
Economists generally look
to those risk-assessment
statements as a clue to
future rate moves by the
Fed.

Borrowing costs expected to
stay low during Iraq conflict
WASHINGTON (AP) Americans could see interest rates stay low or even
drop further in the weeks
ahead, depending on how
the wobbly economy holds
during a war with Iraq.
Federal
Reserve
Chairman Alan Greenspan
and his Federal Open
Market Committee colleagues decided Tuesday to
hold a key interest rate at
1.25 percent, a 41-year low,
saying they would keep a
close eye on economic
developments surrounding
the war.
"In the current circumstances, heightened survei 1lance is particularly informative," Fed policy-makers
said.
Economists said that language raises the possibility
of a rate cut in the future
should the economy take a
turn for the worse. That
could happen if the war
does not go well, oil prices
skyrocket,
profit-challenged companies slash
jobs and consumers get
tightfisted .
The Fed's next scheduled
meeting
is
May
6.
Economists said if the
economy were to flash new
danger signs before then,
Fed policy-makers wouldn't hesitate to cut rates

Graves trying
to get the hang
of starting

Bv RusTY MILLER
Associated Press

Bv JoE KAv
Associated Press
CLEARWATER, Fla. The move from closing
games to starting them has
got Danny Graves' head
sl?inning faster than one of
hts rally-ending sinkers.
No one could prepare him
for this.
There's too little time to
kill and too few things to do
before the first pitch. By the
time the newest member of
the Cincinnati Reds' rotation
gets to the mound, he's
· already had an excruciating
· day.
Then, there's this matter
of the windup. Graves doesn't have one.
"It's totally new," said
Graves, who has been a
reliever throughout his professional career. "It's been
about I 2 years since the last
time I did a windup. No rule
says you have to have it.
I've tried like 72 different
windups, and 7 I of them
didn't work."
No matter. The Reds are
counting on Graves, who
saved 30 games each of the
last three seasons, t() save
the entire bullpen this time
around.
With a wealth of dependable relievers and a dearth of
proven starters, the Reds
decided to move Graves into
the rotation this season.
Scott Williamson, who
throws harder and gets more
strikeouts, will be the primary closer.
Manager Bob Boone and
pitching coach Don Gullett
think that Graves is better
suited to a starting role,
allgwing him to use his slid~
er and changeup as well as
his trademark sinker. Graves
started four games near the
end of last season and went
1-0 with a 1.89 ERA, showing he could do it.
The problem: He's not
always sure how to do it.
For instance, the righthander hasn't pitched out of
a windup since his pro
career started in the
Cleveland Indians' farm systern in 1995. Even when
he'd start an inning, Graves
would pitch out , of the
stretch.
Now that it would be beneficial to throw out of a
windup, Graves has to learn
how to do it all over asain.
He threw the ftrst two p1tch-

Cincinnati pitcher Danny Graves is finding being a starter a much more difficult task than
his former role as a closer. Graves had 30 saves in each of the past three seasons, but former starter Scott Williamson is now expected to become the closer. (AP file)
· es out of the windup
Monday against Florida,
then scrapped it completely
when Juan Pierre lined the
second one for a single.
"Sometimes new things
click easy for people, and
sometimes it takes them a
Ion&amp; time to," Graves said.
"Th1s is one of the things
that's taking me a long time.
"I'm not saying I'm totally giving liP on it. If I'm in a
regular season start pitching
out of the stretch and we're
in ttie sixth inning and win:
ning 8-0 or something like
that, I might give it a shot."
Gullett thinks Graves'
fastball could gain a few
miles per hour if he threw it
out of a windup, but he concurs that it's better to stay
with the stretch and sacrifice

speed for now.
"He's not comfortable in
the windup,'' Gullett said
Tuesday. "The most important thing is for him to feel
comfortable out there.''
The windup isn't the only
part of his new job that
leaves him out of sorts.
Graves still hasn't gotten·
used to the routine reserved
for those who pitch once
every five days.
With his outgoinll personality and easygmng temperament, Graves handled
the pressure of closing
games quite easily. He's lost
when it comes to getting
ready to suirt. .
He' II get to the ballpark
early, glance at a magazine,
stretch, play catch, talk to a
few teammates, then look at

the clock and realize there
are several hours left before
game time.
·"It's real nerve-racking,
just having to sit there,''
Graves said. "It's just miserable.
"If I start for 10 more
years, I think I'll still be the
same on game day. I'm just
anxious to get out there. I
don't want to sit around."
He could get some tips
from the other starters, but
prefers to watch them and
learn by observation.
"I'm · just trying to see
what they do on days the~
pitch," Graves said. "I don t
want to bother them with my
problems. They have their
work to do.
'T m still working on the
routine.''

(I 5- I 6) never trailed again.
"When it got to overtime,
just· as we got back to the
bench, some of the coaches
said, 'Are we going to lose
in overtime?' " Smith said.
"We said we wouldn't.
That's just been our motto."
Asheville, the only team
in the tournament with a los"
ing record, received a dubi~

Friday in Birmingham, Ala. ·
That game will reunit~
Texas coach Rick Barnes
and Asheville's Eddie

Barhes his first coaching job
when he was at Davidson in
1978.
"The people who are play ~
ing great right now are the
ones who are enjoying basketball and having fun,''
Biedenbach said . "We're
one .of those teams right
now, and so is Texas."
Bryan McCullough added

three second-half 3-pointers
and finished with 14 points,
Ben McGonagil had 12
points and Joseph Barber II

The Bulldogs are the
unlikeliest
of
NCAA
entrants. They ended the
regular season with four
consecutive losses before
storming through the Big
South postseason tournament 10 days ago.
They were just 1-14 on the
road - granted, while playing heavyweights such as
Kansas,
Oklahoma,

State
and
Connecticut - before their
3-0 run in the conference
tournament.
"We've got a thing we

Teenage tornado twists
angry step-mom into knots
DEAR ABBY: My husband's teenage son, "Danny,"
recently came to live with us.
His m01her has remarried and
moved 2,000 ·miles away.
Danny will visit her for a
month this summer. Danny is
basically a good kid, gets
good grades. and appears to
be making some nice friends
at school and in the neighborhood .
The problem is, he's messy
and I'm a perfectionist. I try
to ignore the dirty clothes
strewn across his bedroom
floor, the food wrappers, the
wet towels in the tub, etc.
Although my husband is talking to Danny about the mess
and there has been slight
improvement, I was raised
differently, Abby. I often find
myself gettin~ · furiously
angry. I am afrard I am going
to say or do something I will
regret, and I don't want to
jeopardize my relationship
with Danny.
Can you suggest some ways
to channel my anger? Do you
have ·any ideas? -TINA IN
TENNESSEE
, DEAR TINA: You' ve
already taken the most important step -- recognizing your
anger and what's triggering it.
You want to avoid yelling at
Danny or breaking things.
Some suggestions: Walk away
from the cause of your anger.

Dear
Abby
ADVICE
Leave the room, leave the
house if necessary, until you
have regained control. Write a
letter in which you express
your feelings . You may never
give that letter to Danny -- in
fact, you probably shouldn't-but you will feellOO percent
better once you have gotten it
out of your system. Be sure to
show your letter to your busband. He should know to what
degree Danny's habits are
affecting you.
There are other healthy,
acceptable ways to express
anger. I have incorporated
some of them in my booklet,
''The Anger in All of Us, and
How to Deal With lt." It can
be ordered by sending a business-sized,
self-addressed
envelope, plus check or
money order for $5 (U.S.
funds) to: Dear Abby Anger Booklet, P.O. Box 447,
Mount Morris, IL 610540477. (Postage is included in
· the price.)

DEAR ABBY: I am a man
who believes in equality, but I
seldom find it with the
women I date. I work full
time, cook, clean, wash
clothes, iron, shop, etc. I don't
believe there is such a thing as
"woman 's work." The women
l know agree with this philosophy, but have a problem
acceptin~ that there is no such
thing as 'man's work" either.
I believe in equal pay for
equal work -- with which my
dates agree. But when the
concept of sharing expenses is
proposed, my idea of "fairness"is not well received. For
example, if I buy a woman
dinner on Friday night, I
believe she should pay for my
dinner on Saturday. If I drive
one weekend, she should
drive the next.
I have been called cheap,
biased, and· even obscene
names. What's a modem man ·
to do? - PUZZLED IN A
SMALL STATE
DEAR PUZZLED: A
modem man should take into
consideration whether or not
the women he's dating have
approximately the same
income he does. All things
being equal, I subscribe to
your philosophy. However, it
shouldn't be set in concrete as
you have stated it. If the lady
doesn't take you to dinner, she
might reciprocate in another
'

way: cooking dinner for you,
taking you to a movie, making
a picmc for the beach or a
ballgame. I do differ with you
on one point, however:
Driving alone at night can be
dangerous for women. You
should provide the transportation.

Dear Abby is written by
Abigail Van Buren, also
known as Jeanne Phillips, and
was founded by her nwther,
Pauline Phillips. Write Dear
Abby at www.DearAbby.com

President Bush:
"I assure you, this will not be a campaign
of .half measures and we will accept no
outcome but victory:'

Astrograph
Thursday, March 20, 2003
BY BERNICE BEDE 0sOL

New horizons and greater
vistas to explore might lure
you in the year ahead. Some
could produce fresh opportunities, but you'll need to stay
on top of them to reap their
benefits. Leaping from one to
another won't have positive
results.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March
20)- Of course it's possible
to find plenty of reasons for
postponrng your responsibilities today, but none will be
valid. No matter how hard
you try to convince yourself,
you'lllose.
ARIES (March 21-April
19) - It's good to be an optimistic person, but today you
could rely a bit too much on
Lady Luck bailing you out
should you get in trouble.
Rely solely on yourself, because she won't be around.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20)- You'll be letting down
those who are depending on
you today if you neglect obli·
gations assigned to you.

Avoid trouble by taking care
of your duties first before you
run off.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
- Separate being a visionary
from being a daydreamer, or
the latter will Sidetrack you
from your tasks. Mental discipline may be required if you
hope to get anything done today.
CANCER (June 21-July
22) - Don't spend any
money today that you don't
have in your wallet or you
could put a lot more on your
credit cards than you realize.
When the bills come due, the
reality of it would depress
you.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)Get opinions from those with
whom you plan to spend your
day before taking it upon
yourself to plan the schedule
of events. Chances are what
interests you may not.interest
them.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
-· Watch what comes out of
your mouth today, or you
could inadvertently hurt the
feelings of SOmeone who likes

'IEI&gt;.\.1?

you and lose this relationship
altogether. It would be a major loss for you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-0ct. 23)
-It's totally foolish to think
that keeping up with the Joneses is necessary in order to
impress those you're with.
Not only is it useless, it can
put you 10 a bad light.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
22) - Luck or cha,nce unaided will not accomplish the
goals you are seeking today.
You must be prepared to put
fonh the necessary skills, talents and energy.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23Dec. 21)- Be modest should
you find it necessary to list

your recent accomplishments.
People wi II think better of
you if you are low-key rather
than if you embellish your triUmJlhs.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19) - Be particularly selective about whom you join
up with today, esjleciallr if
money is involved. There s a
strong chance someone else's
actions will draw you into an
expensive episode.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) - Agreeing to an arrangement with others today
simply because it might be
the most convenient thing to
do could turn out to be downright foolish. The only thing
you'll gain is regret.
