I live in a townhouse and my neighbors and I share a common bedroom wall. One night I was awakened by a pounding noise. I couldn't figure out where it was coming from, and eventually went back to sleep. Over the next few weeks, I was awakened freQuently by the same sounds. One night, after listening for a while, I realized it was coming from my neighbors' bedroom they were having intimate relations. I didn't say anything at first, but finally decided I had to. I was afraid my mother would be visiting while the neighbors were going at it again. I was more than a little embarrassed at having to broach the subject. One morning, I rang the couple's doorbell. When the .woman came to the door I said, "I have something to tell you - the walls here aren't very thick." She took one look at my red face and understood immediately. Needless to say, I never heard them again. - Dear Abby ADVICE SILENCE IS GOLDEN IN MARYLAND DEAR S.I.G.: They say the squeaky wheel gets the grease.

"• 'I 1 Nn - I 'ill RUTLAND - Ground will be broken for a new retirement home in Rutland in mid-April , · according to Joe Wolf! a, developer of the planned Deer Run Senior Living Center. Cost of the facility will be about $4 million. It will be administered by Legends Realty. The project was original ly slated to be started earlier in the year, but there have been a some minor problems which have held up construction. The current water system, which would have supplied the 50,000 square foot 60unit apartment on a 2-112 acre site was inadequate. Wolfla said there was not enough water pressure for the facility, which was particularly important ·since there would be fire extinguishing water sprinklers in many rooms. "If we flushed every toilet in the facility, we would have taken the water out of town," he said. As a result , Legends Realty had to run another water line out to the site. Wolfla said it took time to get the necessary easements needed to run the new water line . The town's sewer system presented a different set of difficulties. The town's current sewer system is not large enough to handle the inevitable increased load coming from the facility. To compensate for this, Wolfla said a large holding tank will be built which will ease the sewage problem so that the increased flow would not overwhelm the current sewage system. Wolfla was quick to thank Mayor Dick Fetty for his assistance in addressing thi s issue. The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency got involved with the permit process to ensure that all environmental regulation s meet compliance. The EPA approved the site last November. There was also a potential legal issue involving an open purchase agreement on the property. This could have potentially meant that someone else had an option to buy the property first before anyone else would be eligible to purchase it. Wolfla said this issue was quickly resolved. Despite the temporary setbacks, Wolfla is glad the site will be in Rutland . "We liked the area," he said. "This will be a very good thing for Meig s County." Each apartment will have either a courtyard or ex ted- or view. The building will consist of one-story modular units. Wolfla said Amish workers are co ntracted out through All-American Homes to build the units . Once everything is in place, the developer said it would take as little as two months to build the final product, which is the prototype of 17 more which will be built in Indiana and Ohio . Each apartment will have a living room, kitchen. bath and one bedroom with appropriate appliances and facilities. The apartments will have many amenities, including microwaves, refrigerators, dishwashers and ceiling fans . Legends Realty has three main partners which include Oscar Robinson, .who played professional basketball , Bobby Plump, a in basketball legend Indiana, and Wolfla .

"Much like a football player who wants to reach that next level, a Scout must have specific goals in mind and find ways to successfully attain those goals," he added. Even though Bartrum admitted he was never in the Boy Scouts, he said the organization does a fine job with instil).ing good values in·young men. ''Unfortunately, I was never in the Boy Scouts because I was always busy with football. However, no matter where I travel in the United States, I always find Scouts to be both honorable and outstanding citizens," he said. · Following his speech, Bartrum fielded questions and signed autographs for fans. Besides collecting pledges, the organization also auctioned off several autographed footballs and gave signed Philaldephia Eagles caps away as prizes. All money collected at the fund-raiser goes directly into programs supported by the Gallia County Friends of Scouting. More than 160 scouting units are located throughout the TriState Area Council. Those counties served are: Gallia, Lawrence and Meigs in Ohio; Mason, Cabell, Lincoln, and Wayne in West Vuginia; and Boyd, Lawrence, Carter, and Greenup in Kentucky. The luncheon was sponsored by Bob Evans Fanns and Ohio Valley Bank. 2 Sedlons - 16 Paps Calendar Classifieds Comics : Dear Abby Editorials Movies _Sports Weather ~ .. ''i \oJOVLD (X) Tf\L ~ ...

The Eynon family has a son, Don, who is serving with the Third Infantry Division in Iraq. Each night, Don's parents, James and Ruby Eynon, watch television hoping for a some news and maybe a jlimpse of their son. • James Eynon, who also was in the Army, said his son is a tOP.·notch soldier with of the sktlls necessary to do the job. Don has served in the elite 82nd Airborne and in the lOth Mountain Division, which is a high! y specialized unit with intense combat training. Don, 42, has been in the Army for 22 years and is currenily a first sergeant, one grade lower than sergeant major which is the top rank for a non-commissioned officer. "Don always wanted to be a soldier," James said. "He eats it and sleeps it." Don is currently serving with the Third Infantry Division (mechanized) which is a smaller part of the First Brigade. There are between 15,000 and 17,000 soldiers serving in the divisiop. James said his son is responsible for protecting supply lines, which are vital to the move through Iraq . While Don is not in the "forward" area or the push toward Baghdad , his role is not any less dangerous. James said his military experience is hel~ing him deal with his son s tour of duty. "I can handle this pretty good," he said. Don 's mother, however, is not as calm or composed. She will tell anyone that she is very worried about her son. "I just worry," she said. "I don't like it but that is his job and he is fighting for his country. We watch the news constantly, day and night. I don't know what I'm going James and Ruby Eynon watch for news about their .son Don who is stationed in Iraq with the Army's Third Infantry Division. (J. Miles Layton) to see next on TV. I don't sleep that much because of my son." Ruby has been through this before. Her younger sons, Tim and Dana Eynon served in the Army during the first Gulf war. "We watched TV the same way when the other two were over there," she said. Don's wife, Maria, received a quick phone call from her husband this past weekend. David Bloom, a reporter at MSNBC who is embedded with the Third Infantry Division, let Don use his satellite phone to talk to his wife in Cincinnati and tell her and their three children what was going on. Maria told her father-inlaw that Don was doing fine and that he had been in the large sandstorm which slowed the advance toward the Iraqi capital. As near as James can figure it, based on reports from CNN and from what hi s daughter-in-law said , he thinks his son is about 30 to 50 miles from Baghdad .

The society cited budget cuts in announcing Wednesday that the summer reopening of the tourist attraction adjacent to the state fairgrounds has been postponed indefinitely. Rachel Tooker, society deputy executive director, said it's ironic that the village will have to remain closed for much of the state's bicenten- nial year when people are particularly interested in historical sites. Ohio Village, which opened in 1974 to re-create 19th century life and crafts, experienced its first significant cuts a year ago, when the jobs of 14 full -time employees, including seven craftspeople, were eliminated and hours were reduced. A spokesman said the village brought in $450,000 in 200 I but cost $1.3 million to operate. Last year, the village offered public hours on sum- mer weekends and for holiday events. Seasonal interpreters replaced the craftspeople, ;~nd attendance dropped. Tooker said the historical society · will wait for the Legislature to finish work on the next budget, which takes effect July I, before deciding when- or whether - public hours will be restored. Since 200 I, the state has reduced funding for the society by 16.5 percent, or nearly $2.4 million. The socie.ty has eliminated 69 staff positions across the state because of the cuts. Its total budget fof the current fiscal year, which ends June 30, is $19.8 million. '' Tooker said the proposed: state budget does not restore • the lost funds. · "Given the uncertainties of, the budget, we didn't feel·' comfortable developing a-· program at the village not knowing if we could mainJ; tain it," she said. :, The school tours will be · scaled down, with a tour : guide but no interpreters in:. the village's shops and bmJd, ,, 'ings. POMEROY Jeanne Bowen reviewed for the Middleport Literary Club the book " 1984" by . George Orwell which she said has enjoyed renewed interest because of current world situations , "Unusual security measures established since the terrorist attacks of September 200 I , such as surveillance of e-mail and the collection of all kinds of public and private information about citizens and non-citizens alike by government officials have been called "Orwellian" by some," said the reviewer. "For some people it might bring to mind the picture of Big Brother, the Orwell character who used telescreens to ~atch all the people in his country in order to detect 'thought crime,' she added. : George Orwell was the pen l\3me of Eric Arthur Blair who was born in India in 1:903, the son of an English ci vii servant there. After an epucation at English schools, including Eton College, Orwell served for a time with the Indian Imperial Police in flurma, and then returned to England and worked for the IIBC and several English newspapers. The event that most affected him was the Spanish Civil War in the late 1930's. While re:porting on the war, he o,bserved the way the Communists tried to hold on to power by the use of espionage and murder, even turning on those who had been their allies, and that experience helped to make him a strong opponent of Communism. That opposition to Communism shows itself in "1984" . Bowen told how, when Qrwell died in 1950, he left a large body of work including several books, both fiction ahd nonfiction, and many • {) -- - ~-·-~ Cloudy Sl'lowefs T-storms Rain Flurries Snow Ice Showers tonight, cooler Saturday winds 15 to 20 mph.

The western Ohio town of Botkins is being considered by an undisclosed Indian tribe as the site of a .$550 million bingo hall and gaming complex. The village council has voted to buy 82 acres of land for a possible complex. And in Clermont County east of Cincinnati, speculation that a tribe may be looking for land to open a casino led township trustees to pass a resolution stating their opposition. Ohio voters rejected casino-gambling proposals in 1990 and 1996. Terry Casey, consultant to the developer who wants to bring the complex to the Botkins area, said Ohio has II million residents and that more and more states are legalizing gamblin~. More than 200 tnbes operate casinos in 29 states, according to the California Nations Indian Gaming Association. Those casinos bring in an annual total of $10.6 billion. "Ohio is one of the last prizes left." Casey said. "You ' ve got a lot of people in Ohio that like to do gaming." Casino opponent David Zanotti, president of the Ohio Roundtable , said the gambling industry steps up its efforts to expand when states encounter budget problems. hoping that taxes oo gambling profits will appeal to lawmakers as a source of revenue. "They (the gambling industry) know politicians 1re vulnerable right now," said Zanotti, whose publicpolicy group has led campaigns against legalized gambling in Ohio since 1988. Earlier in March, Gov. Bob Taft ordered $100 million in cuts for primary and secondary schools to help balance the state budget. The Legislature had rejected his proposal to close a $720 million deficit by raising taxes on cigarettes and alcohol. However, Taft remains opposed to any expansion of gambling in Ohio, believing the soc ia I iII s ere ate d by gambling outweigh the benefits , according to Taft spokesman Orest Holubec. Casey said a number of governors who opposed the expansion of gambling ended up approving agreements. "There are people that don't like gaming, but they don't like taxes even more," he said. "My crystal ball says come about April or May, you' re going to see legislative proposals come back as a way to help solve the state's budget problems." Casey said recent court decisions would make il easier to locate a casino in Ohio than in the past. Zanotti worries that chance s are good that an Indian casino will open. He said a federally recognized Indian tribe could get land plaoed in trust by getting a local government and the U.S. Interior Department to agree to it. If the tribe establishes a gambling hall on the site , it ' . t I ncome Tax by Dan Tax We are prepared for your "Return" dealing with here.

But if Ohio goes to Class III, the tribe could offer all forms of gambling. Zanotti fears that the Legislature will pass a gambling-related bill such as authorizing lottery sales online that a court could interpret as being in the Class III category. "The other side has millions to spend on lawyers to try to win those cases in court," Zanotti said. "Lawmakers simply are not doing their homework. They don't know what they're essays. However, he is sti II mainly known for the novel s "Animal Farm" and "1984", both published in the late 1940's. The book is a story of Winston Smith, a low level party member in London, whose job in the Ministry of Truth is to rewrite history books and news stories to change accounts of the past to conform to Big Brother's latest political'reality. He questions what he is doing and wonders whether or not he can join a conspiracy against Big Brother and knows that to contemplate such a thing is a "thought crime" and could result in his death if he is caught. The reviewed says about that time he becomes romantically involved with a young woman named Julia, who is also a party member, although all love affairs are strictly prohibited by Big Brother, who knows of his plans to work against Big Brother. As the story continues, Smith is betrayed by O'Brien, and the couple are arrested and tortured and totally "reformed" as he returns to life in the city. Bowen said the novel shows Orwell's fear and distrust of any totalitarian government, and warns of what could happen in a future of total government control. The meeting was held at Trinity Church with Gay Perrin as hostess. Leah Ord , president, announced there will be a group discussion on May 14 of the book 'The Ladies of Covington Send Their Love". Olita Heighton received lists of recommended books for possible reviews by group members. Next meeting will be on April 2 at the Pomeroy branch of the Meigs County Library, with Dana Kessinger as the hostess.

REED Staff writer Ohio Valley Publishing Co. BY BRIAN 0 Den Dickerson Publisher Bette Pearce Managing Editor Charlene Hoeflich Editor NATIONAL VIEW Big stuff Arrest of al-Qaida leader makes world a bit scifer • Mobile (Ala.) Register, on the capture of an al-Qaida Ierrorist: The capture of al-Qaida leader Khalid Shaikh Mohammed is both a huge blow for freedom and a strong rebuke for critics of the Bush administration. Consider the latter issue first. For at least half a year, naysayers and political opportunists among Democrats in Congress have argued that President George W. Bush's focus on Iraq was hobbling efforts to fight the al-Qaida terrorist net, work . The wurst offenders charged that the administration, by supposedly doing little more than grubbing for oil in Iraq, was negligently leaving the United States vulnerable to more alQaida attacks of the 9-11 variety. One prominent senator and now-presidential candidate, Bob . Graham of Florida, voted no on last fall's congressional reso. lution authorizing military force against Saddam Hussein specifically for that reason. Sen. Graham said, in effect, that the United States couldn't fight Iraq and al-Qaida at the same time . Mr. Graham himself is no cheap-shot artist. His positions at least have had the ~ourage of consistc;ncy. But others in his party in recent months have picked up that same drumbeat without his level of knowledge or nuance. . Khalid Shaikh Mohammed's arrest is the most important · counterterrorist arrest, ever. · This is big stuff. The world is safer as a result. Next up for the cau se of freedom: Take out Saddam Hussein. Because when it .comes to fighting terrorists, the United States can indeed walk the walk against some and chew Saddam at the same time. TODAY IN HISTORY BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS .

Robbing students of a high school education If Freya makes four of her five free throws in a basketball game, what is her free throw shooting percentage? (A) 20 percent (C) 80 percent (B) 40 percent (D) 90 percent That's a sample mathematics question from the California high school exit examination. The state's powerful teachers union thinks it unfair to require students to pass the exam as a condition of receiving' a high school diploma. "You have thousands and thousands of kids who aren't prepared for one reason or another," said Wayne Johnson, president of the California Teachers Association. Those reasons, he told The Sacramento Bee, include "language difficulties, living in poverty or gang-infested neighborhoods, not getting enough to eat." Until those problems are solved, Johnson would have state education officials continue fraudulently bestowing diplomas on hundreds of thousands of California students each year who have proven themselves incapable of performing high school work. Assemblywoman Loni Hancock, D-Berkeley, agrees with Johnson. She has introduced a measure, at the behest of the state teachers union, that would mandate the exit exam be taken, but not necessarily passed as a condition of graduation. "A student could pass all of their classes and because of the result of one high stakes test, they can't graduate?" she decried. "It's unfair." Which sentence below is an example of a simile') (A) I will have set no clock . Joseph Perkins (D) A day away acts as a spring tonic . .. The reality is that the test is unfair only to those students who lack high-school level skills. The reading and writing questions bn the state's exit exam are roughly lOth-grade level. The math questions are about seventh-grade level. Students begin taking the exam their sophomore year in high school and can pass with scores of only 55 percent in math and 60 percent in English language arts. And the state gives the high schoolers not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, not six, but seven opportunities to pass the exam before completmg their senior year. Yet, of the nearly 460,000 California students who are on track to graduate next year, only 48 percent have passed the exit exam so far. That means that fewer than half of the state's class of 2004 could manage to score a mere 55 percent to 60 percent on questions measuring their reading and writing ability at no more than the I Oth grade level: their math skills at no more than the seventh grade level. Solve for X. 2X - 3 7 (A) -5 (C) 2 (B) -2 (0) 5 Lamentably, the failure rate is highest among California's minority students. Some 70 (B) I do not want to know percent of Latinos have failed at least one part of the test. 74 my name ... l C) We need hours of aim- percent of blacks and 81 percent of English learners. less wandering ... Those figures have prompted predictable claims that the exit exam somehow is "culturally biased." "We are concerned about the racist tests that are going on in our schools today," said Paige Leven, a member of the Coalition for Educational Justice. It is one of a number of groups, including the American Civi 1 Liberties Union , seeking to have .California's high school exit exam thrown out. Yet, few of the students who have failed the exit exam have taken the initiative to acquire the extra academic assistance that would help them to eam passmg scores. Indeed, many scbool districts throughout the state have started remedial after-school and summer-school programs to help students pass the test. But students are not taking advantage of the programs. The Contra Costa Times recently reported the experience of Antioch High School, where only five students showed up for an after-school exit exam clinic. Vice Principal Kathleen Curry told the Times that no amount of encouragement or advertising seemed to help. How does the reader know that the story is a dramatic monologue ? (A) The narrator is the only speaker. (B) The story is about the narrator 's love of acting. (C) The narrator has a vivid personality. (D) The story is based on the narrator's experiences. And why should the more than half of California high schoolers who have failed the exit exam take time away from their usual after-school activities - working on their jump shots, improving their video-game scores, watching their favorite TV shows. surfing the Internet - just to bone up on math and language arts? They've got the state's teachers union in their comer, arguing that it is unre25onable to expect the state's high school graduates to be academically competent enough to pass a seventh-grade-to IOthgrade-level test, even with seven bites at the proverbial apple. They've got state lawmakers like Hancock acting on their behalf, advocating that California award high school diplomas to any and every student who makes it through 12 years of schooling, no matter how little the student actually has learned. At least one California education official is courageous enough to defy the state's teachers union, to challenge lawmakers who would scrap the state's high school exit exam. In an interview with The Sacramento Bee, Education Secretary Kerry Mazzoni said she's heard all the complaints about the exam. That "people don't like the high stakes of the test, they don't want to hurt children, and they think it's unfair not to give them a diploma." However, she said, "I think that'~ misguided. It's unfair to think that people could go out in the work force or be a success in college when they're not equipped to succeed." For far too long, California high-school diplomas have been counterfeit - even a functional illiterate could obtain one. Requiring that students pass the state's exit exam to earn a sheepskin would ensure that future graduates boast at least basic academic knowledge and skills.

Planni_ ng starts for Meigs for Relay Life May 30-31 event set for Eastern High School c RACINE - Six Rac ine women who devote much of their time and money to corresponding with Meig s County soldiers have received a citizenship award from Meigs County commi sswners. Since October 200 I, members of Enduring Freedom Support Group have written letters, sent birthday card s and prepared "care" packages for some 50 members of the military. The group has also assembled window displays honoring local soldiers, and has just recently purchased American flags for the Racine community. During their regular meeting Thursday, commissioners presented Kay Warden, Ann Layne. Jan Cardone, Ruthie Shuler and Elizabeth Wolfe with the board' s first Citizenship Award to honor their efforts. "We're going to continue as long as we can." Warden said Thursday. "It 's hard sometimes, but .we do it for our country and our soldiers." Members liave received many replies from the sol- diers with whom they corhave res pond, and involved the entire Racine community in their projects . For example , elementary students at Southern Elementary School made valentine s for the troops, and se venth and eighth graders wrote letters. All were included in monthly packages mailed to each of the soldiers. Local businesses have sent personalized letters and pho- · tographs . "Sometimes we send as many as 60 letters at a time," Cardone said. "We copy every letter for each soldier." Each soldier is al so remembered on his or her birthday, with a special card. Telephone cards and sanitary items , such as moist towelettes, are al so sent on a regular basis . While the group is based in Racine, all known Meigs County military personnel are included in the monthly mailing list, and commissioners said Thursday they will accept contributions from the public to help defray costs of mailing, copying and other expenses, and for items to be included in the packages.

George Voinovich plans to open an office in Gallipolis to better address needs in 17 Ohio Appalachian counties, and has selected a local woman to act as his district representative. MarJean Kennedy of Gallipolis will staff the office, scheduled to open later this year, and will be available to work with commumtles tn those counties on issues such as water, sanitation service and economic development. Gallipoli s is centrally located to counties Kennedy plans to assist, including Gallia, Meigs, Jackson, Vinton and Lawrence. "The senator would like to focus on distressed counties throughout the Appalachian counties of Ohio, in addition to all of the other issues that this regwn faces ," said Kennedy. Her past experience in area development has been seen through the Gallia County Chamber of Commerce, Ohio Department of Development and the Regional Governor 's Development Office, and was one of the reason s why she was offered the job. "My background with the governor 's office and contact s I have made in this region were a basis for this decision," she said . "My role is to be the s en ~tor's eyes and ear s throughout the area , and provide ass istance and support fo r qu ality of life issues, such as water and sewer, economic development and individual assisuince," Kennedy added . "We want to focus on the total community." Kennedy said Voinovich's staff is "in the process of identifying space" for an office in Gallipolis, and an opening will be held later in the year: Voinovich, the former governor and Cleveland mayor first elected to the Senate in 1998, is expected to attend the opening. Kennedy can be contacted at 446-7080 . Voinovich 's caseworker hot line for constituent assistance is (800) 205OHIO (6446) . Voinovich said Kennedy is a "welcome addition to my team" and looks to her experience in working with local leaders to provide resources for the area ' s improvement. 1 h h · n t e past year, t e senator saw successful passage of legi slation he spon sored to aid the Appalachian Regional Commission in boosting the area's high-tech infrastucture. "Ohio's Appalachian counties rematn very important to me, and having someone such as MarJean who has deep roots and strong ties in the community will enable me to to enhance the work th at 1 do on behalf of the region ," Voinovich said . " She will also work closely with my Washington team and me in identifying way s to build upon my ARC leg islation that the pres ident si gned into law last year," he added .

Times come when resisting . and defeating evil requires confrontation. which is expected from us by God. If, indeed, thi s is the primary factor for our military action in Iraq , the n th e good of it should be declared and highlighted rather than having it slurred an d then shoved in the national face of America. It is just a sad state of mind that, many times when evil is confronted, evil is portrayed as victor rather than villain. Isaiah 5:20 states, "Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness ; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter'" Second, the Bible's press coverage on war teaches us to support and honor the troops who put their lives on the line for the sake of administering good. For exa mpl e, the Bible favorably reports the war work of Adino, who significantly helped defend God's people against the Philistines. Dodo the Ahohite was cited for staying in the fray for so long that "his hand clave unto the sword." Shammah singlehandedly defended a planted field against tremendous odds. Thirty others were mentioned and honored by name for their military service. Through these troops and others, the honor of good was sustained, and evil was deposed. J tell you what Americans whose sense of duty prevails upon them to serve and protect our nation in the military deserves uplifting press coverage, even to the point of favorably explaining the events that surround their labor. I thank God for our military! Should we all not think it critical to keep the home fire s of nationa l morale burning brightly 'till they accomplish their task and return home?

John Marks Templeton has tried heed those words by making money, but then harnessing that vast fortune to explore the nature of spirituality. An investor and philanthropist who endows an annual prize billed as the worl<t's richest, Templeton is fascinated by th~ intersection between religion and science. He's tried for decades to aid those who study how the two fields can offer insights into each other, and at a spry 90 years of age, he plans to keep at it. " I claim no human has known even I percent of what can be discovered about divinity. The best way discovered yet is by scientific experiments," Templeton said in a recent interview. 'T m happy to spend all my life on it now," he said. "I work harder than I ever did before." That's saying something after a hugely successful business career. In 1999, 300 experts ranked Templeton the 20th century's third-best investor (behind Warren Buffett and Peter Lynch). Money magazine proclaimed him "arguably the greatest global stock picker of the century." Templeton puts his personal worth at $700 million today. Not bad for a boy from Winchester, Tenn. , who worked his way through Yale and got an Oxford law degree thanks to a Rhodes scholarship. Many years ago, he moved from the United States to the Bahamas and later became a British ci tizen. He was eventually knighted by Queen Eli zabeth. ·• The lifelong lay Presbyterian also was a Sunday School superintendent at 15. Though he dropped thoughts of a missionary career, he decided after Yale to always donate a tenth of his income to charity. "I never met or heard of anybody who tithed and didn't become prosperou s," he said. "There's a magic to it ." Templeton also served 42 years on the board of Princeton Theological Seminary, and says his guidance helped boost its endowment many-fold to more than $900 million (it has slipped since). "There was a lot of luck involved, but maybe there was divine guidance. We prayed for it," he says with a soft-spoken drawl. Since selling off his mutual funds empire in J992, Templeton has toiled full time on hi s philanthropies, which di spense $40 million a year. . His most publicized project has bee n the annual Templeton Prize for Progress in Religion, first awarded 30 years ago. He conceived of it as religion's version of the Nobel Prizes and has kept the prize (currently 725,000 British pounds, more than $1 million) above the Nobel amount. The honor, won last week by ecological philosopher Holmes Rolston III, got a lumpily long-winded new title in 200 I : the Templeton Prize for Progress Toward Research or Discove ries about Spiritual Realities. Templeton explains that past judges mistakenly chose people with general Fint Baptist Cbun::h Pastor: Mark Morrow, filh and Palmer St., Middleport, Sunday School · 9: 15 a.m ..

That' s also the major purpose of his John Templeton Foundation, established in J987 and run by his son, John Jr. Some prominent scientists participate in its projects, which include books, conferences, research grants and the designing of college courses. Other scientists ignore the etfort, though open hostility is rare. But isn ' t it quixotic to measure progress in religious research? Can working scientists discover information about spiritual matters like prayer, forgiveness, "unlimited love" or the evidence for "purpose" in the cosmos? (All of those were topics for recent grants given by the foundation) . Undeterred, Templeton defends his vision. His interest in science and religion originated with books on cosmology he read in the 1930s. They presented a picture of a "universe millions of times . large r than most people had up to that time . ... It seemed ridiculous and selfcentered to think God was just for one tribe or one planet, so we ought to study everything that's been created as evidence of what God is like." He said knowledge has increased vastly in field s like medicine, physics, economics and electronics while religious information remained static, " Why is it that there's so little progress made in any of the major religions?" he asked rhetorically. 4:4j-5: 15p.m .; Mus· 5.30 p.m., Sun .

The Daily Sentinel • .com Church news The Bible's press coverage of war is instructive Since the ope ning salvos il), Iraq, it seems that much of the print media in ou r country is determined to vilify the USled military efforts and objectives, which seek to free the Iraqi people from Hussein \ horrible re pression, and to remove from the world-scerie Hu ssein 's mass destruction capability. Headlines highlight battle incidents and accidents as though our government and our military have been inept in the execution and expectations of planned strategies. Yet, the embedded reporters at the war scenes continually cite the specific successes and occurrences that, nonetheless, reflect a remarkable effort by coalition force s. Why is it that so much of our nation's print sources seem so determined to paint a word picture of the war that is decidedly different from the reports given by those alongside our troops? Regardless of the reasons, the consideration of wartime press coverage puts a unique light on God s Word . It occurred to me that the Bible records a type of press coverage concerning war, and that the Bible teaches us so me important truths how war coverage should be presented. First, the Bible\ press coverage on war, as it concerns God's people , generally reports in purposeful fashion that military action was taken to stand against as well as to eradicate evil regimes . For example, it is reported that David attacked the Philistine garrison of Methegammah, which means "the bridle of the metropolis." This military site near the city of Gath was a threat to the peace and safety of God's people. But, the Bible presents David's military intervention as pro-action rather than inaction against an evil-based government standing as a source of threat. David received favorab le Bible press because of his courage to ensure his people of being able to work at day and rest at night in relative peace and security. Freedom from indiscriminate enemy action was an imrortant commodity for David s nation. David's decisions were consequently cited as proving necessary. In this regard, the Bible is instructive concerning warrelated press coverage, PageA6 ���Page B4 • The Friday, March 28, 2003 www.mydailysentlnel.com Daily Sentinel nel.com bune Se:n..ti:n..e CLA.SSIFI ED NBA NCAA tournament Timberwolves fall to Magic Wildcats continue their advance 0 : ORLANDO. Fla. (AP) Kevin Garnett and the •: Mmnesota Timberwolves :: couldn't keep up with Tracy · ·McGrady. McGrady scored 30 points to help the Orlando Magic : beat the Timberwolves 110• 107 on Thursday night. The NBA scoring leader also had I 0 assists. seven in the sec• ond half. "I was looking forward to the challenge of Kevin Garnett. but! still didn't want to force anything," said McGrady, who extended his streak of 30-point games to 12 despite being hounded by Garnett. "I was JUSt playing withtn the flow of the game." Garnett had 26 points and 14 rebounds for his 20th double-double in his last 21 games. But he scored only , nine points after halftime , tired from expending energy on both ends of the floor. "The mind is saying yes, but the body is sayi ng somethtng else," the Minnesota star satd. In the only other NBA games Thursday, San Antonio beat Houston 98-85, and Sacramento defeated the Los · Angeles Clippers 93-83. Orlando, which has won six of seven, has a half-game lead over idle Boston for the No 6 playoff spot in the , Eastern Conference. The · Magic also moved a seasonbest five games over .500 at 39-34. . McGrady's two free throws with 24.4 seconds remaining put Orlando up 106- 104 Its first lead since 7-6 - and capped a run of nine straight pmnts in a 2: I0 span . Garnett drew a foul on Minnesota's ensuing possession. but he missed one of two free throws wtth I 7.2 seconds left. Darrell Armstrong then hit four foul shots in the final 15.6 seconds to seal the win. Armstrong scored eight of his 16 points tn the final penod, and also drew a charge from Garnett "tth I: 15 remaining. "Great call' Absolutely the ri ght call," Armstrong said. "S haw n (Kemp) set him up by muki ng ht m put the ball on the floor, and he ran right over me. That was the key play m the game." Orlando trailed by as many as mne m the fourth quarter, but finished the game with a 13-3 run. "The te am that made a defensive run was going to wtn the game," Orlando · coach Doc Rivers said. "We Minnesota Ttmberwolves forward Kevm Garnett. left, and Orlando Magic guard Tracy McGrady battle for a loose ball durmg the first half Thursday tn Orlando, Fla. (API did that down the stretch ." In the final 2:42, Minnesota missed five of six shots, to go with a turnover - Garnett's charge. Those miscues led to the Timberwolves' tirst loss in five games. "We made some bonehead moves down the stretch and didn't execute," said Wally Szczerbiak, who had 22 points and eight rebounds. "You've got to execute in the. final three minutes. Little plays here and there down the stretch are going to kill yo u." McGrady struggled early against Garnett's defense, m1ssmg six of eight shots in the first quarter while scori ng just four pmnts. He fared better as the game went on, partly because he was more aggressive driving to the basket, rather than set- tling for jumpers. But that also meant McGrady wasn 't shoot ing 3s: he missed his first three before connectmg with I:29 left to tie it at I04. Garnett was almost unstoppable from inside and out. sconng 17 pomts in the ftrst half. The Magic had no answer lor htm in the pamt. and he also drilled long jumpers with ease, makmg ftve of his last six tries in the half. He also went 5-for-5 from the line. Spurs 98, Rockets 85 At San Antonio, Stephen Jackson scored 27 pomts and Tim Duncan added 25 points and 14 rebo unds for the Spurs. Jackson scored I I of his points in the third quarter. when the Spurs extended their I !-point hallltme lead to · as many as 20. Cuttino Mobley had 2 1 points for Houston, a halfgame behind Phoenix fo r the eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference. Yao Ming had two points on 1-for-9 shooting . Kings 93, Clippers 83 At Sacramento, Calif., Chris Webber had 23 points, etght rebounds and four assists to help the Kings win their filth straight game. The . Kings lowered their magic number to wtn their straight Pacific second Division title to four. Any combmation of Sacramento victories and Portland losses totaling four will do it. Corey Maggette led Los Angeles with 14 points. ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) - Arizona took all the drama out of this one early. After beating Gonzaga by one point 111 a double-overtime classic, the top-seeded Wtldcats rolled right over Notre Dame 88-71 Thursday mght to advance to the West Regional final. Arizona will face Kansas in the regional final. Luke Walton, last seen sprawled tn exhaustion on the floor in Salt Lake City after grabbing the final rebound in the second round, had 16 points, seven boards and etght assists for Arizona. Fellow senior Jason Gardner added 19 points in his school-record 134th career start. Channing Frye had 14 points and 12 rebounds, and Hassan Adams added 14 points. The Wildcats (28-3) are in the round of eight for the first time smce 200 I, when they lost to Duke in the national champ ionship game. Tarin Francis had 25 points on I0-of-1 I shooting - more than double ht s average -and 10 rebounds to lead the Irish (24- 10). Chris Thomas added 20 points. Neither team led by more than five points before Arizona took command with a 22-3 run that gave the Wildcats a 47-29 lead with 5:56 remaining in the first half. There were etght lead changes and seven ties by halftime, which ended with Arizona ahead 53-40. Kansas 69, Duke 65 ANAHEIM, Calif.

A 6-foot-9 forward that Mike Krzyzewski tried to recruit to Duke, Collison scored seven straight points to gt ve second-seeded Kansas a 63-57 lead with remmmng . The 5:4 1 Jayhawks were on top the rest of the way. Kansas (28-7) will face Arizona on Saturday with the winner gomg to the Final Four.

Midwest Kentucky 63, Wisconsin 57 MINNEAPOLIS (AP) With Keith Bogans watching helplessly from the bench in the second half, Kentucky turned to the power of Marquis Estill to ward off Wisconsin. Estill scored a career-high 28 points and the Wildcats ran their winning streak to 26 games, holding off the scrappy Badgers to advance to the regional final, where they wtll meet Marquette. Bogans, the Wildcats' top scorer and t1oor leader, sprained hts left ankle with 3:32 left in the first half when Wi sconsi n's Kirk Penney committed a turnover, turned around to run back down the floor and fell over the Kentucky star. Mike Wi Ikmson had a layup and Devin Harris made two spectacular driving baskets to pull the Badgers within 52-50 with just under seven minutes to go. The Wildcats went inside to the 6-foot-9, 240-pound Estill, who made 12-of-18 shots. He muscled in for another basket and then hit two free throws as the Wildcats regamed a sixpoint lead. Wisconsin rallied to within one when Harris hit a 3pointer and Wilkinson drove for a basket with 1:33 remaining. But Erik Daniels tipped in a mtss by Estill with I :03 left to give Kentucky a 5855 lead. And after a traveling call on Wilkinson with 49 seconds remaining , Estill made one of two foul shots with 32 seconds left, pushing the lead back to four. After Wilkinson missed twice from the line with 23 seconds remaining, Kentucky hit four free throws in the closing seconds. .__.P "'T"c::. r \\\Ul \(I \II \ h r ANNouN<»nNrS I C-1 Beer Carry Out perm1t for sale, Chester Township, Meigs CouM~. send letters of 1nterest to : The Daily Sentinel, PO Bo~e 729-20, Pomeroy, Ohio 45769 1110 WM'IID TO BUY . us Absolute Top Dollar .

The NFL' s career rushing leader, owner of three Super Bowl rings with the Dallas Cowboys, joins a lowly franchise that hasn't won a playoff game in a half-century. . Smith played before some of the most fanati- cal, loyal fans in sports with Dallas. The Cardinals drew an embarrassing 30,000 per · • game at home last season. • Reminded of all this, Smith said, "Dallas was 1-15 before I got there." But the Cowboys had a rich tradition of winning long before Smith arrived. His new team has a long, long history of ineptitude. Smith was introduced at a news conference at Arizona's headquaners on Thursday, holding up his fanuliar No. 22 jersey, only now in Cardinal red, alongside team owner Bill Bidwill. Lured by the promise that he would be the featured back, and by more money than any other team could or would offer, Smith signed a twoyear deal worth between $7 million and $8 million. He said he was convinced that coach Dave McGinnis and the notoriously old-fashioned and thritiy Bidwill were commined to building a winner. "It's a beautiful city I've been here many times, and one I fell m love with many years ago," Smith said. "There's just still so much in me that I feel like I can accomplish. I think my goal here is to help this team get back to the playoffs. From there, anything is possible." At 33, with many speculating that his skills have deteriorated, the NFL's career rushing leader says I,200 to I ,300 yards is a reasonable goal next season. "Why wouldn't it be?" he said. "I think that it's very reasonable. I expect that of myself I expect myself to be over a I .000-yand back every year. I just have 10 stay healthy, obviously, and everylxxly else has to do their job." Asked if he was motivated by the fact that Cowboys owner Jerry Jones let him INalk away, Smith just smtled a long, btg smile. "That's about alii can say," he said as the big crowd of Cardinals staffers and others laughed and applauded. Smith said he felt that the Arizona offense, with a stable offensive line and the recent signing of free agent quarterback Jeff Blake, is in better shape than the rebuilding Dallas offense. "When you're playing in a game as physical as this is, and you're playing with two young quarterbacks, and you're playing wtth an offensive line that's playing musical chairs, it's hard to do your job," S1111th satd of his last years in Dallas. "Here, I think the situation is better, I really d0. " The signing was a public relations bonanza for the Cardinals. The announcement came during the final day of the NFL owner 's meetings in Phoenix, guaranteeing maximum e,xposure. Many of the reporters in town for the meetings stayed around for Thursday's news conference. Smith loves the idea of playing on the natural grass tield at Sun Devil Stadtum. Hts signmg should help the team's pitiful attendance. Since the franchise moved to Arizooa, its biggest crowds were when the Cowboys came to town. with more Dallas fans than Cardinal fans in the stands. "I'm out here in Arizona where there are Cowboys fans all over the place," Smith said. "Now they're gomg to convert over to bemg Cardinal fans. I'm here to help this team win." The Cardinals hope Smith's professionalism and attitude rub off on his new teammates. "I'm not coming to be a daddy. I'm not coming to be a grandfather. I'm not coming to be a dictator." Snuth said. "I come 111to be a fnend, a panner, a teammate, an associate. That 's what I look to do. as well as being a leader. on this ball club.'' r A SPECIAL SECTION In The • <!9alltpoli~ 11Batlp m:rthune • ~.oint ~lea~ant i\egi~ter • Pomeroy Daily Sentinel Urrs& ACREAGE a- It Patnot area. 20+ wooded acres county water. electnc, good home stle Adjacent Wayne NatiOnal Forrest Excellent hunltng $32,000.

I urged him to see his doctor. but he put it off for many weeks. He finally went two weeks ago. The doctor diagnosed him with testiCular cancer. That same day, my husband underwent surgery to remove his testicle. Two days after that, he underwent cr scans of his chest, abdomen and pelvis. The five days of waiting for the results Were e11:cruciating. Thankfully, his cancer had not spread. He must undeQlo scans every four months for the next two years, but his chances for a full recovery are excellent. After reading about Lance Annsbung (four-time winner of the Tour de France cycling race), I had encowaged my husband to practice regular testicular self-e11:aminations. He did not To me, this was as simple as my monthly breast self-exam. Had I not known the signs, my husband's treatment might have come too late. We are inundated with information about breast cancer, but testicular cancer is rarely mentioned. Abby, please suggest that your male readers practice monthly testicular exams. My husband and I have heard stories of men from 17 to 70 with this cancer.

DEAR ABBY: I have recently started dating :'Jack." He's someone I feel slronjllY about. Jack appears to be qmte fond of me, although I'm not sure his feelings are as sbung as mine. Ever since I've known him, he has talked about his past girlfriends. He enjoys dtscussing their relationships, including intimate details about their se~ lives. I've never been the jealous type, so I'm not really offended - after all, those women are a part of his past. However, I don't understand why Jack feels compelled to tell me everything he does. Other men I've dated haven't regaled me with their escapades. I understand a man talking about his most recent romance, but some of Jack's stories go back 20 years. What do you .think, Abby? -TOO MUCH INFO IN CONNECTICUT DEAR TOO MUCH: Jack is no gentleman. Describing that kind of personal information is a sign of immalllrity and insecurity. Now I have a question for you: How will you feel after your relationship is over knowmg that Jack is telling the next woman in his life all about YOU? If I were you, I'd run for the hills!

The study is now being updated for resubmission to the Federal Aviation Administration. The authority hopes to apply for federal grant funding for a new Gallia-Meigs airport to serve both counties. Fry said his goal now is to open discussion on the need for and benefit of a regional airport facility, and . said no potential locations have been identified. "In Jackson County, we feel if there is a regional airport we stand to benefit regardless of the location," Fry said, "as would all counties participating."

"All of the existing airports are limited in sc.ope, and we need to look at something that might support light cargo shipments and passenger traffic for corporate managers and others who travel in and out of the immediate area." The James A. Rhodes Airport in Jackson County was recently expanded to accomodate a 6, 100-foot runway, but Fry said the property located three miles west of U.S. 35 and three miles from Jackson could accommodate a facility twice that size. · "The Gallia-Meigs Airport is landlocked and cannot be expanded, and Lawrence County has no airport facility at all," Fry said.

Wounded civilians were taken to a British regimental aid facility, where the sobbing husband of one slightly injured woman offered repeated thanks, the report said. Before the mortar and machine-gun fire started, more than I ,000 other Iraqis had escaped the city via the bridge. They greeted British forces with pleas for food and water, and with cries of "Down with Saddam," the pool report said. "Here perhaps are the first pieces of evidence of Iraqi people trying to break free ," said Col. Chris Vernon, a British military spokesman. "And clearly the militias don't want that. They w.ant t0 keep their population ii1 there, and they fired on them to force them back in." Britain's 7th Armored Brigade opted to withhold fire during the attack, fearful that they might hit civilians, said Lt. Cmdr. Emma Thomas, spokeswoman for British forces in the Persian Gulf.
