BY JO£ KAY Associated Press ' CINCINNATI - The more he threw; the more Jimmy Haynes realized he's not quite ready to return to the majors. The right-hander pitched {our innings Thursday night for the Cincinnati Reds' Triple-A team in Louisville, and quickly found out that he's got some work to do. Haynes has been on the disabled list since April 17 with a sore back. He also had a severe cold this week that sapped his strength. He was hoping . to make one start in the minors, then return to the rotation . It's going to take a little longer than he'd hoped. He faded as he went along Thursday, giving . up four runs on seven hits in four innings of a 4-1 loss to the Phillies' Triple~ A team. ''I just 'ran out of gas," Haynes said Friday. "I hadn't done anything in three weeks, so it was to be expected. My legs j~st gave out." His back felt fine, which was the most encouraging part of the night. He'll probably make one more start for Louis.ville next week before the Reds consider activating him. "He threw well in . the first couple of innings, then he got tired, which was kind of expected," manager Bob Boone said. "The first two innings, into the third inning, he was good. He just wasn't in shape for it." • CASEY FINALLY GETS KLINE: Sean Casey had a personally important footnote to Thursday's 8-6 win over the Cardinals. · ·. With Casey on deck and two runners aboard in the sixth inning, manager Tony La Russa went to the mound and called for lefthanded reliever Steve Kline. Casey wasn't the least surprised. He was 0-for-17 career against Kline . "I knew that," Casey said Friday, laughing. "That's why I was on deck saying to myself, 'I'm not facing Steve Kline.' "Every time people ask me who's my toughest pitcher to face, they expect me to ~ay Randy Johnson. I say it's Steve Kline." · He broke the streak by lining a single to "I just ran out of gas. I hadn't done anything in three weeks, so it was to be expected. My legs just gave out:' -Jimmy Haynee right field, one of the key hits in a four-run rally. After the breakthrough hit, he still c~uldn'l expla-in why he's had so many, problems against Kline. ·"I think he started getting into my head about eight at-bats ago," Casey said. Casey also had a homer off Garrett Stephenson that snapped an 0-for-22 streak at Great American Ball Park, something that the first baseman considers a fluke. "I don 't know if sometimes I try harder at home or what," said Casey, who' s hitting .415 on the road. "I can't think that's going to last the· whole year." • GUILLEN ~GAIN: Outfielder Jose Guillen was in the starting lineup for the 15th consecutive game Friday, a sign of the way he has emerged since Ken Griffey Jr. dislocated his shoulder on April 5. ' Guillen was promoted from Louisville when Griffey got hurt, and earned a spot by hitting safely in II straight games, leading the Reds ' resurgence. "Over this run, Guillen has been our MVP," shortstop Barry Larkin said. "He's a Greg Vauglm type of guy. He's going to fight for everything. He plays with a lot of · passion. He's hungry.'' • HOMER HISTORY: The Reds are one of only five teams in baseball history to have three players reach double-digits in homers during the first 35 games of a season. Austin Kearns, Adam Dunn and Aaron Boone have I0 or more. The Texas Rangers also have three players in double figures: Alex Rodriguez, Juan Gonzalez and Carl Everett. The 1994 Colorado Rockies (Dante Bichette, Ellis Burks, Andres Galarraga), the 1970 Reds (Johnny Bench, Lee May, Tony Perez) and the 1964 Twins (Bob Allison, Jimmie Hall, Harmon Killebrew) also had three. · Heading into Friday's game, 56 homers had been hit at Great American Ball Park, the second-highest total in the majors. Fifty-nine were hit in the Rangers' park . The Reds led the National League with 54 homers and 303 strikeouts. un Celtics '·. 94-76 . . ' BOSTON (AP) - This year's Game 3 was nothing like last year's Game 3. On the same court where New Jersey set an NBA record by blowing a 21point fourth-quarter cushion, the Nets defeated the Boston Celtics 94-76 Friday night to . take a 3-0 lead in the Eastern Conference semifinals. That's a deficit no NBA team has ever overcome. Kenyon Martin scored 25 points and Richard Jefferson added 20 on the floor where the Nets were on the wrong end of one of the biggest comebacks in playoff history. It was a victory that inspired the Celtics to celebrate wildly and jump atop the scorer's table, but it was followed by three Nets victories as they won the Eastern Conference finals 42. Game 4 of the best-ofseven matchup is Monday night in Boston. Not even the presence in the front ro'w of Danny Ainge, who was named the seltics' executive director of tiasketball operations before the game, helped. Paul Pierce, who scored 19 points in the fourth-quarter comeback last season, couldn't save the Celtics this time as the Nets led 76-56 going into the final quarter.

Rio Grande hails graduates, celebrates ·growth today , Approximately 435 graduates will cross the stage today on the Green at Rio Grande to receive their degrees. This number is in sharp contrast to the Rio Grande graduation 120 years ago, when four students became the first graduates of the institution. · Of course, there are many contrasts between the Rio Grande of 120 years ago and the Rio Grande of today: 2 buildings compared to 30 today; 127 students in 1883 , 2,487 today ; approximately II full- and part-time faculty 120 years ago and about 160 today. Yes. the institution has changed a great deal Qi'er the years . But the R.io Grande of today, just as in 1883, still cherishes oneon-one instruction and the opportunity to help put a student in a position to be successful today and into the future .

Santos told the Herald on Friday he carried ail object in his hand during the race and described it as a '"cue' ring to call the outriders." "Why do you want to write about this negative l/8stuff 3/8?" Santos said before he hung up the phone at Belmont Park, the Herald reponed. Santos said he was carrying the ring to alert an outrider to his presence. An out- rider js a rider aboard a pony that can guide a thoroughbred before and after the race. However, Santos told the Daily Racing Form on Saturday from Belmont that the Herald misunderstood and that it was a "Q-ray" bracelet that he regularly wears for arthritis. The jockey is from Chile and speaks English with a heavy accent. Knowlton told the AP that the owners spoke to Santos at the barn Saturday morning. "He had a bracelet on . his arm. He always wears it, and that's what we have here," he said. However, Santos appears to be wearing a bmcelet on his left wrist in the photo, not his right. The Racing Form story did not address what Santos might have had in his right hand besides his whip. from Page 81 The questions were raised after The Miami Herald published a story about the jockey, along with the photo. A reporter from the Herald brought the photo to the attention of the stewards on Thursday night. · The photo by Getty Images, which ran in several newspapers the morning after the race, depicts a dark area in the space between Santos' hand and his whip. 'There's absolutely, positively not one iota to this and we're very, very disappointed that an individual can take the luster off what we all consider to be a great Gobbler from Page 81 Farm, Hall spent most of the morning calling to turkeys that didn't want to respond . " I was about ready to give up,"· said Hall, who live s in nearby Point Pleasant. "They weren't talking much, and I was getting a little discouraged." Suddenly, and without warning, a jake came strut! ing toward the startled hunter. A charge of shot from Hall 's 12-gauge dispatched the bird at 40 yards. ''This was a real welcome," Hall said. "I'd been running dry the past few years, and this bird broke my drought." The gobbler Chris Jividen killed was his first ever. In fact, the 15-year-old from 'Barboursville had never been turkey hunting before he stepped into the woods on opening day. · Ji viden's father, Delmas, spent a couple of fruitless hours making clucks and yelps . Eventually, Delmas asked Chris if he'd like to take a nap- while Delmas scouted around a bit. Left alone with his father's calls, Chris picked up a call and began trying to imitate the sounds his father had !Dade earlier. He apparently succeeded. A flock of I0 turkeys came strolling in . Chris immediately drew a bead on the biggest gobbler, but the bird stubbornly refu sed to come cl.oser than 45 yards. Chris knew such a shot would be at the extreme edge of his 20-gauge shotgun's range, so he held his fire . But when the tom turned to leave, he decided to take the shot anyway. Fortunately for Chris, he was using one of the highenergy turkey load s that became available earlier this year. His shot charge dropped the gobbler in its tracks. Not all hunters had the luxury of hunting the el)tire morning. Arnie Painter of Cane Ridge had just enough time to squeeze in a quick hunt before heading off for work. Quick turned out to be enough. . " 1 started out at my brother's place, and I heard birds gobbling but didn't see anything," Painter said. "So I headed back over to my -place. I was there about a half hour when I made a call and had three jakes Come in on me. " As immature birds often do, the three approached within 15 yards. Pamter said the shot was a piece of cake, even with the non-Magnum loads he was using. Turkey hunting isn 't always easy, as Jerry Grady can attest. Grady, of Vincent, Ohio, was hunting in eastern . Mason County with longtime friend Butch Buck when he quite literally got caught with his pants down. · ''I'd just finished using the restroom when a turkey came in on me," Grady said. "Luckily, he didn't see me. I started calling him . He gobbled back, but he wouldn 't come any closer." The tom was a giant, a savvy old longbeard that apparently was experienced to hunters' tricks. "It looked, it stretched its neck, but it wasn't going to come any closer until it saw that hen it thought it was hearing ," Grady said. · "Finally, I decided to take the shot." The shot rolled the bind over, but it quickly regained its feet and ran away. Grady trailed it, but found no evi. dence that it was seriously wounded . "I didn 't get the gobbler, but I enjoyed the hunt anyway." he said. "Turkey hunting isn't always about success. It's about being in the woods and enjoying what's around you."

(AP) - The 70,000-seat :Kentucky Speedway is on the fast track to becoming the major sports venue that developers envisioned while it was nothing but I,000 acres of farmland . Total attendance has grown in each of its .first three seasons, while total season atten'dance figures for the Reds· and Bengals have .dropped eac\1 year in nearby Cincinnati. · "There is a lot of buzz all around motorsports about Kentucky Speedway," said racing announcer Benny Parsons , a former champion driver.

Conceived and developed by Fort Mitchell , . Ky., de.veloper Jerry Carroll, the I .5-mile oval speedway 35 miles southwest of downtown Cincinnati has changed the Jandsqpe of this mostly rural community. For the first time. Gallatin County had to establish zoning. More than $50 million has been invested by Kentucky into improving roads for access to the speedway. Work was expedited after a 21mile traffi'c jam on the first night of racing in June 2000. · . And Louisville developer Ray Patenaude is building a $4 million, 78-room hotel across Kentucky 35 from the speedway's entrance. · It's set to open by July. With just four current racing weekends ~ year and a couple of concerts in the summer, speedway crowds are not going to give Patenaude's hotel enough business. But what the speedway has done is make the Interstate 71 and Kentucky 35 interchange a destination stop for travelers on the interstate trek between Cincinnati and Louisville. "Just look at all the traffic going north and · south right past thi s interchange every day," said Patenaude , president of Fidelity International Contractors. Down Kentucky 35 from the speedway in the picturesque Gallatin County seat of Warsaw, the growth is tangible on U.S. 42, the main road through the Ohio River town . "We have traffic jams now," said Winslow Baker, the county's zoning administrator. "That never used to happen." Even more growth is predicted when the state completes a $35.8 million road project from 1-7 1 south of the speedway to the Markland Dam bridge across the Ohio River.

(AP) Daunte Culpepper signed a $102 million contract extension with the Minnesota Vikings on Friday, becoming one of the NFL's highest-paid players. The 10-year deal includes a $16 million signing bonus . The 26-year-old quarterback had one year left on the d~al he: signed after the Vikings drafted h1m with the 11th overall pick out of Central Florida in 1999. The total potential value would be the third highest in NFL history behind Philadelphia quarterback Donovan McNabb '($115 million) and Buffalo ~uarterback Drew Bledsoe ($103 mil· !ton). "Now we can move forward," Culpepper said, all smiles at a news conference following a minicamp practice. "I'm glad it got done today .,. I feel in my heart that we have the team that can win a championship." Culpepper became a starter in 2000, asks after a light rain subsides. · "No, it's right over us and its greatgrandaddy is 30 miles behind it," Helton replied. Rarely are they all watching the same thing at the same time. After an accident, Helton is watching the monitors to see how a driver has responded. "He hit pretty good, Mike, as quickly as you can move," Helton tells Phillips, calling for quick ambulance response to Steve Park 's accident. "He 's moving, he's. moving." There's confusion when driver Casey Mears pits before he was allowed to. Hoots and Darby call him back in for a penalty, but the message apparently · does not reach the crew. "We need. to find out how that hap- ' pened," Triplett barks. "Who is the official in that pit ?" Hoots gets the message delivered and Mears falls back into the pack as pun ~ ishment. "The 41 car is where he needs to be," Hoots says. They are race fans - Darby gives a heart y laugh when Bill Elliott uses a slide to get past Jeff Gordon for the lead - and spend the ni ght charting pit strategies. Every competitor is referred to by his car number. The only controversy comes near the end. When Helton sees a stor·n "the size of Utah" quickly closing in, the officials grow nervous about rain washing out the finish. With 20 laps to go, it gets harried. A cau tion comes out and the officials are eager to accelerate the cleanup process and resume the race. "Let's go, let's get those trucks off the track ... they press. With rain falling , another caution comes out with six laps to go. Hoots, can't get the pace car out before the field passes and everyone starts yelling. Two phones are ring ing and Darby juggles them both. Helton tries. to slow down the pace car to give . the trucks more time to clean up without losing laps. Compounding the problem, the wreck is in the center of the track with little room to squeeze the cars through. "Bring them down pit road," Helton demands . "Then slowly bring them around the back. Stop them back there. Let'\ go guys, I don 't want them sitting there, with their engines running. Let 's go. Let 's go." But by the time the track is.clean, the rain is falling harder. Helton tries to wait it out. When they "lose the track" - rain soaks it and makes conditions to dangerous to resume - Helton dejectedly sits back. . ''Let's go ahead and unplug it ," he says . The headsets come off, the cars drive toward the garage, and NASCAR calls it a night on another race. Points 1.

Moss got an eight-year deal worth $75 million in July 2001, and now the Vikings have two of the six highestpaid players in the league. . Though ail agreement didn 't appear to be close initially, the Vikings wanted to get the deal taken care of sooner rather than later. "We're looking forward to several years of Daunte," McCombs said.

(AP) - Come Mother's Day, 17-year-old Andrew 0' Sullivan wakes up. goes outside to gather pastelcolored eggs from chh:kens at the family's Chehalem Valley farmhouse, and then heads for the kitchen. He cracks some eggs into his homemade pancake batter, slips others into · simmering water to poach. and lays slabs of bacon in a pan · to sizz le on the stove .. Like countless youngsters across the country, Andrew performs the ritual of cooking ' breakfast for mom on her .special day. But for Andrew and other children whose moms are professional . chefs or restaurateurs, May II is a day to reverse roles in the kitchen and celebrate family cooking. "He likes. to get up and go into the kitchen and turn on the music and do it (cook) on his own," says Andrew's mom , Claire Archibald . An award-winning chef who owns Cafe Azul in Portland with her sister Shawna, Archibald looks forward to her family's annual late-morning American meal. He says that as a youngster he wanted to impress his mom but soon realized that just "taking the time · and effort to cook impressed her more than if I were trying to create some really fancy dish ." He adds: "As I grew older, I realized it really didn't matter much what I was cooking. What matters is that I am wanting to cook for her, to make that day easier for her, to make that day more pleasant." These davs, Andrew enjoys squeezing in more kitchen time with his mom, a two-time nominee for the James Beard award for best chef in the Northwest. "She's taking me under her wing," he explains, given his interest in learning to cook before heading off to college. Unlike Andrew, the youngsters in chef Jody Adams' house in Somerville, Mass·., don't often do the same thing every year. "They'll surprise me," says Adams, chef-partner of two Boston restaurants , Rialto and blu, and I 997 'winner of the Beard award for best chef 111 the · Northeast. Her · two children, 13year-old Oliver and 7year-old Roxanne , are ·no strangers to the kitchen . Oliver m,akes the school lunches and Roxanne helps out with kitchen tasks such as peeling and cutting veg- • etables . She also likes to cook with Adams· husband , writer Ken Rivard and . co-author of Adams' first book, "In the Hands of A Chef' (William Morrow, 2002. $34.95). The celebration varies, depending on Adams' work . Years ago, she worked Mother's Day brunch . with her baby on her hip. Last year, the kids surprised her with breakfast in bed . A surprise meal is also in the making for Bev Shaffer, only her son is 25 years old. Shaffer is the cooking-school director and cooking teacher at Mustard Seed Market and Cafe in Akron and in Solon, Ohio. Her son, Ray, li'ves next door to his parents in Seville, Ohio, and enjoys cqoking for them several times a month. Childhood allergies prevented Ray from eating packaged foods so he and his mom baked, cooked and made jams together. "She started teaching me how to cook because she knew I would have to be ab le to cook in order to survive," Ray says. "I ended up outgrowing my allergies but I still have that love of cooking." Ray specializes in Asian and Italian food and enjoys making his own version of pasta sauce with port wine. The Shaffer family, like many, agree that cooking together and sharin·g good food is an important part of everyday life and not only for special . occasions. Bayless co-owns the celebrated Chicago restaurants Frontera Grill and Topolobampo with her husband, award-winning cnef, television personality and cookbook author Rick Bayless. Sharing breakfast before a busy day is another ritual in the Bayless household. So it's not surprising that when it comes to Mother's Day, the first meal of the day is the one Lanie likes to make for her mom. Typically, it's a Dutch . Baby, a skillet-sized oven pancake··that rises and falls like a popover. Lanie fills the sunken center with fresh fruit and syrup and a sprinkling of powdered sugar. Recipes: Port is the secret ingredient Ray Shaffer adds for sweetness to his basic tomato sauce with mushrooms and olives. Sweet Sicilian Sauce for Pasta . . Extra-virgin olive oil 6 doves garlic, chopped 2 medium yellow onions; diced . 2 cups ruby port wine 12 · Roma tomatoes. ·~cubed 6-ounce can tomato paste 6-ounce · can . medium black pitted olives I tablespoon dried oregano 12 to 16 brown Italian (cremini) mushrooms, sliced Coat the bottom of a large skillet with oil.

Add oregano, olives ·and mushrooms . Simmer until mushrooms have cooked through and become ten der, about I 0 to 15 minutes . Serve. over cappellini pasta. Makes 4 servings. (Recipe by Ray Shaffer) Bob's Dutch Baby is named for a friend of the Bayless family. It comes out looking like a bowl, Lanie poinls out. Her father adds, " If you've ever had a great big puffy skillet full of apple oven pancake, this is similar. It' s just · that apples aren't baked into it, so the whole thing comes out crisper and, as Lanie says, it does make an edible bowl to put fresh fruit in." Even after years of eating Dutch Baby, Bayless says, "I still think it's pretty cool to watch how the sides rise up the edge of the pan. We make it mostly when we've got people it's visiting because impressive looking." This is more-or-less the same batter you make popovers out of, Bayless says. "About fruit, I suggest you change with the seasons: use strawberries (top green leaves removed) in early spring; blackberries and raspberries in early summer (not need to cut them up); peaches and nectarines (peeled and pitted) in mid summer (whole blueberries, too); &nd appl,es and pears (seedy core cut out and peeled, if you wish) in fall and winter. milk also work fine) 3/4 cup flour (instructions ' for measuring fol low) 1/2 teaspoon salt 3 cups diced fruit ( 1/2inch pieces) A little powdered sugar Syrup, as needed Prepare first : Preheat oven to 450 F. Stir flour in its bag or canister. Scoop in 1/4-cup measure. Use back of knife to level off excess. then dump into bowl. Repeat twice more. ' Heat syrup in sma ll saucepan over low heat or in microwave at 50 percent power for I minute. Now cook: Melt butter: Put butter in very large (12-inch) skillet. Set in oven' for 5 minutes to melt butter. Make sure handle of skill et won't melt in oven. Leave until butter melts completely; it's OK if it begins to brown . Make batter: While butter melts •.break eggs into large bowl with flour, add milk and. salt and beat until smooth. (If you don't have a whisk, use a rotary beater, hand-held electric mixer or even a large spoon.) . Bake : Remove skillet from oven. Pour batter in hot pan. Return to oven and .bake 15 to 20 minutes , until puffed up the sides and dark golden-brown. . Serve: Remove from oven and slide onto serving plate. Pile fruit in center. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Cut into wedges. -Pass syrup to pour on. Powdered sugar looks prettiest if you put a spoonful in a little strainer and shake it on top, Lanie says. Makes 4 or 5 servings.

That's what happened to Beth Callaway of Pine Mountain, Ga., one of about I00 American members of the Sharpe Appreciation Society. "Sharpe's Havoc" stays true to the formula. Set in 1809 during the French invasion of Portugal , Sharpe and his riflemen find themselves cut off from the British army while under orders to lind the missing teenage daug~ter of a wealthy British wine merchant. · The Greenjackets join with a unit of Portuguese soldiers led by a young and ideali ~tic officer who is shocked by Sharpe's brutality, but who turns out to be a loyal ally as the group battles French light infantry and dragoons. The fate of Sharpe's troops is held in the balance by a devious British diplomat playing both sides in the war in an effon to enrich himself.

Staff report Ask Dr. Gott Update on -E. Mergatroyd, medicine's worst BY PETER H. GoTT, M.D. NEA Columnist DEAR DR. GOTT: For decades 1· have enjoyed your columns about Ethan Mergatroyd, your fictitious medical doppelganger, ·who retlect_s the worst of medicine. Any updates? DEAR READER: I'll try. Dr. Ethan Mergatroyd, the. quintessential physician, resisted change, resisted it at all cost. He cursed -the current corporate bankruptcies and damned the intrusive governmental interference _ t~~t has "wrecked medtcal practice (hts phrase). He couldn'-t understand post Cold-War Europe, where former Communists no longer behaved as they should. · He wished gold were $50 an ounce, the Dow Jones industrial average had remained at 500, and that he could learn to live within his income. In short, he longed for the days when doctors had real clout, power and intluence. When healers were princes and their word was law. He remembered his old chief of surgery, who arrived at the hospital leading his retinue, demanding (and getting) operating room lockers for his · private entourage. Nurses wore caps. abdicated their chairs for male doctors. and were trained to answer "yes sir, no sir." Doctors did pretty )11uch as they wanted in those days, but they heroically bore the burden of responsibility and wore the badges of courage with stoic self-effacement. If they seldom earned the respect of their underlings (the non-M.D.s), they at least demandedit. Each private practitioner staked out his turf and defended it aggressively, much like sea birds nesting on a rocky cliff. On rare occasions when a patient chose to leave the kingdom and seek medical care elsewhere, the doctor ignored the deserter, refused to speak ·to him and took so long transferring his records to a competitor that the patient's medical history became an unresolved mystery. ' Patients may have paid in nickels, dimes, eggs, produce or services - but they paid. Records were for the physicians eyes only and were so illegtbly transcribed that they were impossible for an outsider to decipher, even if an attorney were naive enough to want to review them. . _ Powerful physicians 'programmed their positions of privilege by patronizing their patients. They also denied new practitioners staff privileges, using a cruel but effective blackball system that other powerful colleagues understood and accepted. ' Old-time physicians 'willingly played God. They decided when it was time to stop oxygen. the suctioning and the feedings. No one was ·looking over their shoulders or usurping their prerogatives. Government agencies were ignored; they played no role whatsoe ver in medical practice. Medicare and HMOs had not yet been invented. Through influential guilds. doctors monitored tl;teir handpi cked colleagues, institutionalized their political leverage and disciplined misbehavior only when absolutely . ne~e>sary to maintain tt\e statu s quo or to rid the ranks of embarrassi ng heretics . Yes, Mergatroyd mused as he examined the five carat sapphire on his pinky ring. I'm like Miniver C heevy, the · hero of Edwin Arlington Robinson 's poem,' who was born at the wrong time. I would have been a magnificent Prince of Medicine. I'd soak the rich. ' suck up to _prestigious practitioners, detine my own limits, exploit the system, bask in a11luence, throw my weight around, and manipulate the profess ion to my own advantage. These qualities were precisely what made medicine the splendid profession it was. As Mergatroyd, sitting at -hi s desk, sadly reviewed his meager list of weekly appointments, he realized how much he abhorred change. He simply could not find the strength to abandon the principles he had embraced early in his career. He had tasted the golden age of medicine. Now, technology (those "damned computers," he' d say), government interference (in the form of Medicare and HIPAA , a new federal law beyond his comprehension) and HMOs were changing his life - and he perceived that such an alteratton was a professional catastrophe. So. as he usually did •at times like this. he reached in his desk drawer, drew out a bottle and took a long and sati sfying swig. Ahhh, it was so hard to change . DEAR DR. GOTT: Is vohimbine an effective therapy for erectile dy sfunc tion'' My husband would like to try it, rather than paying full-freight for products such as Viagra. • • As an - aside he is also concerned about blood in his semen. His urologist has reassured him that nothing's wrong, but we want to know if there is ·a serious problem. _ DEAR READER: Hematospermta (blood in the semen) is always abnormal. although it may be caused by nothing more than a simple prostatic infection that can easily be cured. However, hematospermia may also rellect a tumor in the reproductive tract. so it should be investigated by a specialist. I don't disagree with your husband's urologist. but I'd feel more comfortitblc if the doctor had been more specific about the cause of the problem.

Set up a meeting with him or her before you make your decision to be sure that person is the best match for what you and your fiancee have in mind and there are no surprises. It's good to have an idea of what you're looking for when calling around. Don't forget to ask for references from previous clients. • Selecting a caterer - As you and your fiancee review halls for your reception, be sure to find out whether there is a caterer on-site or if you need to provide one, as this can have a major impact on your wedding budget. Also ask about alcohol pricing, menu planning and food service options. • Throwing a bachelor party - Traditional bachelor parties have included cigars, playing cards and plenty of drinking. However, an increasing number of grooms are interested in more memorable and fun options. Today's bachelor parties can· be anything from sponing events to a skiing or camping trip with friends. • Choosing the first dance - This is the big one, that allimportant first dance as husband and wife. Do you have two left feet? You also might consider dance lessons so you can dance like a pro from start to finish. Pick something that's sentimental to both the bride and groom. If you're still stumped, choose a classic tune from artists like Frank Sinatra or Nat King Cole. • Giving the toast - The keys to a good toast are tailoring your material to your audience; speaking with confidence; and keeping good eye contact and body language. ~nside: ' Home Page Dl Sunday, May 11, 2003 • Lee Ann White and Greg Burke Master gardener finds no thorns in devotion to roses Mr. and Mrs. James B.

One local master gardener, who has grown roses for more than 45 years, would agree with that sentiment. · Alice Thompson , 81, said roses are her favorite flower. Despite the thorns, she likes all kinds especially since roses don't need to be dug up like other plants and flowers do. Thompson 's said her secret to growing beauti ful roses, if she has any secret, would be constant vigilance against insects. " I don't really have any secrets to growing other than just paying close attention and looking for insects, I guess," she said. For years, she has waged war against such creatures as tent caterpilIars, spider mites, Japanese beetles / and some green worms that eat the foliage . "It smells good so it must taste good too," Thompson said about why the bugs are attracted to flowers. The master gardener said two years ago the tent caterpillars were everywhere, but a freeze last year killed them so that they are not as big of a problem this year. Thompson doesn ' t use special soils to plant her roses in, but plain Meigs County dirt. She tends to her roses almost every morning and makes sure that each bush is properly watered and cared for. Another · reason she likes rose s is because they live a long time. Thompson sajd she still has rose bushes that are at least 40 years old. A few are even older. Thompson had to take six weeks of classes so that she could be considd d ere a master gar ener. Then she had to donate 50 hours of volunteer work to help other people learn the best that gardening has to offer. Even as a master gardener, Thompson said she "still keeps learning about gard · " . emng. She is a member of both the Winding Trail Garden Club and the Shade Valley Garden Club. Peggy Crane, president of the Master Gardeners, credits Thompson with her own green thumb. Back in days of yore when Crane was a young 4-H member, she met Thompson who taught her how to arrange flow ers, name plants and about which plants are edible. "She made me into the gardener I am today," said Crane, who sends Thompson. roses every Mother 's Day. Thompson spends time with her roses and her · other gardening projects every morning. Sne has a vegetable garden which has corn, beans, . lornatoes, radishes, · potatoes . and onions in it. "Homegrown vegetables taste better than store bought," she said. 159- Dime 160 Woolen cloth 163 Aftectatlc)n 166 H01ela 169 NelgtW <:1 Max. 171 Short SWim 172 Halt goo 174 Red-- bea1 175 Reapouse (abbr.) 176 . ear.t After a long day of tending her garden. master gardener Allce·Thompson steps Into the cool shade and watches her plants grow and blossom.

According to Wagner. tf you use the nght-stze ttp, the full force of the blade ts exerted agamst the stdes of the screw slot, and even the toughest screw can be eastly ttghtened or dislodged. It's obvtous when the blade ts too btg- 11 stmply won't fit mto the slot . When thmgs go wrong ts when the blade ts too small. Thts ts where Wagner's explanation opened our eyes to how a screwdnver up works tn a screw. "If the up is too small, then tts stdes won't fully rest aaainst the sides of the screw slot," he sotd. "When only the very corners of the screwdrrver tip octually touch the slot walls, the actual force transferred from the screwdnver blade to the screw Itself ts almost nil." The more contact there is between the stdes of the screwdti ver and the sides of the screw slot. the more force will be t{ansferred from the tool to the screw. Also, tf you have to push on the screw- dnver handle - as well as turn - there 1s a good posst· btltty that the screwdnver blade 1s not properly fmed to the screw Agatn, the force needed ts tn the turn - not the push That's why kecptng a screwdnver up tn pnstme condltmn ts tmportant Smce proper fit means more power transmttted from the screwdnver to the screw, touchmg up a screwdnver ttp to exactly ftt the JOb 1s prudent. AI· though thts ts a task that can be performed wtth a hand file, 11 ts easter to use a bench gnnder. They are avatlable at most htgh schools Modtfymg a screwdnver up to correct aamage or to get the blade to exactly fit a parttcular screw ts easy, but there are a few thmgs you should know The scrcwdnver has three baste parts - the handle, shaft and up or blade. • When fthng or grmdmg the very end of the Up, be sure the resultant surface is shaped to be reasonably perpendtcular to the screwdrtver shaft • . When vtewtng the very end of the up, be sure that tt ts as close to a perfect rectangle as ts posstble A trapezoid shape ts a bad thtng. The two large faces of the blade must be pllfallelto one another, and the two edges of the blade also must be parallel Each of these sets of surfaces should be square to the other. • The four tapered stdes of the blade are not destgned to be shaped to any spectfic angle Their pttch can be tn· creased or decreased as necessary to achteve the ttp wtdth and thtckness needed to fit the screw.
