DEAR ABBY: I have
bee n
involved
· with
"C h~istopher" for three
years. Our relationship
started out as an affair.
Chris was married with
two small children and
liv ed two doors down from
me. He ended up leaving
his wife and kids for tpecausing pain for everyone .
After the divorce, Chris
was ordered to pay child
support, alimony and the
family's mortgage . He
stopped paying when his
wife moved in a lover who
was a neighbor from
across the street. Soon
a'fter that she kicked him
out and took up with a guy
she met on the Internet.
The two children were
neglected and finally taken
into state custody. (They
have since been returned
to her after a year-long
court battle.) The state
never . allow
would
Christopher to take the
kids because his ex
brought to light his prison
history and ongoing alcohoi addiction.
·
My problem is , after
three years of this drama, I
still feel I can't trust Chris
- that he always needs to
be "baby-sat." He is not
the wprld 's most responsible guy. For instance ,

D
ear
Abb
Y
AOVICE
instead of goin~ to work,
he may end up m a barand not even call to let me
know. I'm always scared
and worrying about what
he 's doing and where he is.
On t~p of all thi s, Chris
is facing more prison time .
My head tells me he's not
worth the trouble he ' s
caused, but my heart won ' t
.let go of the hope he ' ll
change . Maybe I should
have walked away when he
first cheated on h·is wife
with me - the first time
he lied, the first time he
left me in the middle of the
night to go out and do
who-knows- what.
Should I wait until Chris
goes to jail. then send· him
a Dear John letter and start
over someplace else? Or
should I get out now? If I
threatened to leave .him,
he'd go nuts. Yet he fee!s
OK about living a reckless
and selfish li~e . Abby, who

really has the problem here
- me or him? - CON·
FUSED TO THE MAXI·
MUM IN MISSOURI
· DEAR CONFUSED TO
THE MAX: Interesting
question. I'd say you both
do. Your boyfriend can't
toe the line, and you can 't
let go. From my perspec tive, Chris can offer you
no future . However, if xou
think' he will "go nuts ' if
you indicate that you ' re
leaving·, it woula be better
if you wait until the state
takes him away from you .
DEAR
ABBY:
My
teacher told me I should
write to you with my eti queue question a b out
envelopes.
Should people mail their
personal
letters
. in
envelopes that have a
curved -edge closing flap
or a straight-edge closing
flap? Someone told me
that one kind is for personal letters and the other
kind is for business letters .
Is this true? -JOSH IN
CHICAGO
DEAR JOSH: If it's
true, it's the first I have
heard · of it. To most pea ple , the most important
thing is what's instde the
envelope, not the shape of
the flap .

POMEROY Flooding
caused a two-hour delay in the
Meigs Local School district this
morning.
Superintendent Bill Buckley
said he and district transportation
supervisor Paul McElroy were up
at 5 a.m. to assess the situation.
He said roads in the western part
of the county got hit the worst.'
"It rained really hard last
night," Buckley said. "It's just a
normal part of life here, I guess."
High water was reported in
Rutland, Langsville and Dexter.
Burlingham, which usually gets
hit hard during rainstorms, was
reasonably clear this morning. .
At 8:45 a.m., Buckley said the
streets in Rutland were still under
water.
Tthere was some flooding in
Pomeroy, but the waters subsided.
Buckley said a mudflow at the
construction site of the new ·
bridge by State Route 681 was
· cleaned up early this morning.
The superintendent said that by
9 a.m., he understood waters
were subsiding in flooded areas
enough so that bus drivers could
go around flooded areas if neces·sary.

GALLIPOLIS -The
Ohio State Highway
Patrol · Gallia-Meigs
Post will have additional
troopers
patrolling Ohio's high·
ways thi s . holiday
weekend in an effort to
save lives.
"Chance s are someone you know will be
involved in a car cra sh
this year. If they are
unbu ckled , they are 50
percent more likely to
be injured or killed,"
Lt. Dick Grau, GalliaMeigs Post commander, said.
"We must begin by
recognizing that wearing a seat bell is the
most effective way to
save lives and reduce
InJunes on, Ohio 's
roadways, " he added.
In addition to safety
belt enforcement, the
patrol will be as vigilant as ever in removing impaired drivers
from our roadway s thi s
weekend.
The patrol is joining
more than 6,000 businesses, law enforcement and government
agencie s throughout
the
country
in
Operation
ABC
Mobilization
America Buckling Up
Children .
The effort is a crackdown on drive rs· who
don ' t buckle up children by stepping up
enforcement of Ohio's
child passenger safety
law throughout the
holiday weekend.
Ohio's child-passenger safety law requires
children under 4 years

New school buildings don't
level playing field
• • The Portsmouth Daily Times, on school funding:
New schools don ' tjusti't'y status quo. It would be easy for
some residents In rural parts of Ohio to see new school
buildings or areas where new schools are going to be and
think the state has done its part for education in those areas.
Not so.
The Ohio Supreme Court on Friday washed its hands of
the 12-year-old school funding case DeRolph vs. Ohio
after three rulings over five years that declared the state's
educational system unconstitutional.
It isn't that the Ohio School Facilities Commission,
which came after the Supreme Court's first ruling against
the state, hasn't provided better environments for many
students in rural areas of Ohio.
However, the primary issue is still equality.
Justice Evelyn Lundberg Stratton, who wrote for the
majority, said the responsibility of creating an educational
system that is constitutional now rests with the General
Asserr.bly.
Since that has been the case for the past rive years with
no results, the question is how confident can we be the
General Assembly will deliver?

The Jayson Blair stigma
It seems like everyone and
his .grandpa have asked me
about Jayson Blair - the
young, black New York
Times reporter recently outed
as a serial fabricator and plagiarizer.
The prevailing take on the
latest journalistic scandal "a low point in the !52-year
history of the newspaper,"
the Times lamented - is that
it is an indictment of the
newspaper's
affirmative
action pol icy.
I agree, but not for the reasons that many advance: that
the Times had no business
hiring a twentysomething
black to its reporting staff.
I joined The Wall Street
Journal editorial page when I
was in my early 20s. My tender age, my relative inexperience, my complexion, hardly
predisposed me to journalistic fraud. About the same
time l was hired by the
Journal, my college classmate Isabel Wilkerson was
hired by the Times, a twentysomething black reporter.
She later won a Pulitzer Prize
for her feature writing in
1994.
So, there's nothing wrong
with newspapers, newsmagazines or news networks
hiring promising young black
journalists, as long as those
papers, magazines and networks also hire promising
young white journalists, and
those young black journalists
are not brought a,board

Joseph
Perkins

through some special minority-hiring program . .
That's where the Times, the
so-called Gray Lady. fell
short when adding Blair to its
exalted reporting staff. CNN
reported that Blair came to
the newspaper "as part on an
internship program designed
to help the paper attract more
minority reporters."
Well, I had several news
internships when I was a college student with the Journal
and Washington Post, among
others. I never would have
accepted their offers if they
were part of some program to
help those papers darken up
their staffs. That's because I
recognized, even back then.
that when minorities are held
to different hiring standards
than their white counterparts.
the minority hires are stigmatized; they are viewed by
their white · peers as second
class, whether their more liberal whi~peers admit it or
not.
The Blair scandal illustrates that stigma's deleteriousness effects. Because he
came to the Times through its

program designed to attract
minorities, every other black
who has come through that
program is suddenly suspect.
Sure, it's unfair. Blair is an
unethical journalist who happens to be black. There also
are unscrupulous journalists
who happen to be white.
''Did race have anything to
do with the awful case of
Brian Walski. . the Los
Angeles Times photographer
who fabricated the photograph out of Iraq earlier this
year?" asks a news release
from
the
National
Association
of · Black
Journalists.
··was it a factor with the
two Salt Lake City reporters
who sold a fabricated story to
the National Enquirer for
$20,000 in the Elizabeth
Smart case 0
"Was it a factor with Mike
Barnicle, Stephen Glass,
Ruth Shalit, Eric Drudis or
the dozens of other white
journalists who . smeared the
honorable profession of journalism and lied to their readers?
"Why should it be a factor
here?"
Well, here 's why: Those
white journalists are seen as
individual s. They are not
viewed ·as members of a separate class or designated
group, mainly because they
were not hired through some
special program that appears
from afar to hold its benefi-.
ciaries to less-de manding

standards than those outside
the program.
Indeed, the fact that the
Times even has a minority
program suggests that its editors believe they have to cut.
corners to hire minorities. If
implies that, if the Times·
subjected minorities to the
same hiring criteria as
whites, the newspaper's
reporting ranks would look
like an audience at a Lincoln
Center chamber music con-:
cert.
But here's the reality:
There are roughly 6,500
black, Hispanic and Asian
journalists throughout this
fair land, according to the
American
Society
of
Newspaper Editors.
A newspaper that boasts·
the Gray Lady's prestige can ·.
certainly attract the best and ·
brightest of those minority
journalists without some stigmatizing program.
When the day comes that ·
The New York Times and
other news organizations
practice colorblind hiring,
when .minorities are brought
on staff as individuals rather
than members of a special
class, then the failings of one:
minority journalist - like
Jayson Blair · - will not·
rene~t badly on us all.

The last time Sue and l
went shopping at the gigantic
discount store, I bou"ght a
package of golf gloves. They
were a great deal, several
dollars less than I would have
paid for them at any golf
course. They came flat,
encased between two pieces
of hard clear .plastic. which I
could riot open for the life of
me: Even the scissors I had
used on the tOO.\hbrush couldn't get through this stuff. I
t.ad just bought a new pair of
scissors at the discount store,
but they. too, were encase.d in
hard plastic. Oh sure, they
want to protect you from
product tampering, but who
is going to tamper with golf
gloves and scissors? I wasn't
planning to eat them. So I
grabbed a kitchen knife.
. You ·can guess where this is

going, can't you? Well,
you're wrong. It was only six
stitches. And a tetanus shot.
And a lecture on the proper .
way to hold a knife. And I
won't be golfing for a while.

the stuff we buy in clear hard
plastic, wouldn't it be easier
to cover our body parts in
clear hard plastic and put the
'gloves in tissue paper? Had

be playing golf today. If my

Terror alert raised to 'high' amid
fears foreign attacks could spread
WASHINGTON (AP) Federal
counterterrorism
authorities
called
for
incre~ sed security nationwide by raising the ·security
alert to "high" but provided
fe~ specifics on where alQaida could strike inside the
country.
.
Officials ;~re · fearful that
al-Qaida . could expand its
plans for a wave of attacks
overseas into the United
States. FBI Director Robert
Mueller stressed Wednesday,
however, there is "no specificity'' as to potential targets
or times of attack.
"The American ·public
ought to go about its business· understanding that it
ought to be vigilant," he said
on ABC's "Good Morning
America," saying the system
of alerts deters terrorism.
"We know that from our
interrogations" with suspected terrorists, Mueller said.
· Asked whether President
Bush spoke too soon in saying .al-Qaida was "on the
run," Mueller said: 'They
are on the run."

Mueller said authorities·
believe that Osama bin
Laden "is stil l out there. I
think there 's some concern
about what kind of control
he has over the people."
Although Mueller said the
warnings are nonspecific,
federal law enforcement
officials speaking on condition of anonymity said that
among the intelligence
picked up recent!~ were .two
electronic transmissions that
discussed the possibility of
an attack on New York,
Washington, Boston and
more broadly lhe U.S. coastlines.
The officials said there
were doubts about the credibility of .the threats and
stressed that they were not
the driving factors in the
decision to raise the threat
level.
The decision to raise the
national alert .to orange, signifying a "high" risk of
attacks, from yellow, meaning an "elevated" risk, came
after a review of intelligence
information by Bush 's

homeland security council
Tuesday, White House
spokesman Ari Fleischer
said. Orange is the secondhighest on the five-color
alert scale.
Around the country, state
and local authorities stepped
up sec urity measures. Police
in California worked 12hour shifts. National Guard
troops in New York were
called up to protect subways
and bridges. In Washington,
the Capitol police SWAT
team prepared to conduct

Greenspan: Fed ready to do whatever needed
to fight deflation, other economic threats
WASHINGTON (AP) Federal Reserve Chairman
Alan Greenspan told a congressional panel Wednesday
that the Fed is ready and able
to do whatever necessary to
guard against the remote
possibility that a weak economy will trigger a debilitating bout of falling prices.
Greenspan assured the
J&lt;;&gt;int
congressional
Economic Committee that
even with the Fed's key economic policy lever, the federal funds rate, at a 41 -year
low of 1.25 percent, the central bank has other resources
to influence interest rates to
jump-start economic growth.
. He said that in addition to
pushing the funds rate, the
interest that banks charge
each other on overnight
loans, closer to zero, the Fed
can simply begin buying
longer-term Treasury securi-

ties to drive longer-term
interest rates lower.
"Should it tum out for reasons that we don 't expect,
but certainly there is a concern it may happen, that
pressures drive the Fed funds
rate closer to .zero, that does
not mean that the Federal
Reserve is out of business,"
Greenspan said.
"We see no credible possibility that we will at any
point run out of monetary
ammunition to address problems of deflation or anything
else that disrupts our economy," Greenspan said.
In his prepared testimony,
Greenspan noted that at the
present time, "the probability of an unwelcome substantial fall 'in inflation over the
next few quarters, though
minor, exceeds that of a
pickup in inflation."
·That language tracked

what Fed policy-makers said
after their May 6 meeting
when the central bank, in an
historic shift, signaled that
for the first time in more than
a half century, they were
more worried about the PoSsibility of deflation than
inflation. The country's last
bout of deflation occurred
during the Great Depression
of the 1930s.
Many economists believe
that the Fed's new worries
about the possibility of
deflation have increased the
odds that the central l)ank
will cut interest rates when
policy-makers next meet
June 24-25. Analysts believe
the debate at that meeting
may not be over whether to
cut rates but how large of a
rate cut to proYide, either the
normal quarter-point move
or a larger !Jalf-point cut.

Jackson out on the town for fast food
SOLVANG, Calif. (AP)
Reclusive pop star
Michael I ackson, wearing
a red-and-blue S~ider­
Man mask, popped mto a
congressman's field office
seeking an answer to a
critical issue.
"How come Solvang
doesn't have any fast-food
restaurants?" the costumed I ackson .. asked
Steve Lavagnino, deputy
director in the ·new office
of Rep. Elton Gallegly, RSanta Barbara.
According
to
Lavagnino, the discussion
about two weeks ago 'went
like this:
After Jackson was told
the only chain restaurant
was a Subway sandwich
shop, he said, "I love Taco
Bell."
Solvang, about 140
miles north of Los
Angeles, is a quaint village that bills itself as
"the Danish Capital of

America."
The 44-year-old singer
then pulled his webbedcrusader disguise off his
face and apologized for
disturbing
Lavagnino,
although Jackson didn't
know what kind of office
he'd wandered into.
"I've seen you on TV,"
said Lavagnino, whose
father, Larry, is the mayor
of nearby Santa Maria.
"Don't believe everything you see on TV,"
replied Jackson. who isn't
registered to vote in Santa
Barb~ra County, but his
sprawling
Neverland
Ranch is nearby.
After a few more pleasantries and an autograph ;
Jackson rode off in a
black
Bentley.
Lavagnino's boss didn't
believe his tale until he
faxed him the signature.
"Elton
laughed,"
Lavagnino saiq, Moqqay.
"It's very hard to top that

visit. My first week in the
office and I get the most
famous . person on the
planet."
Jackson later was seen
at a Taco Bell/Pizza Hut
drive-through window in
nearby Buellton.
After ordering two
cheese pizzas, breadsticks, water and three
chicken
soft
tacos,
Jackson was spotted in the
passenger seat. As his pizzas cooked, Jackson
talked to employees and
signed autographs, said
Ana Torres, restaurant
assistant manager.
"He was great," Torres
said. "We all got his autograph. He talked to customers."
Jackson also had his
son, Prince Michael, with
him, she said.
"He had blond hair, he
was really cute," Torres
said.

Archdiocese withholding
documents in sex cases
CINCINNATI (AP)
Prosecutors accused·the Roman
Catholic Archdiocese of
Cincinnati of wilhholding documents that were supposed to
have been turned over in an
investigation into sexual abuse
allegations against priests.
Hamilton County prosecutors
told the Ist Ohio District Court
of Appeals on Tuesday that
church officials have made
"misleading and · inaccurate"
statements about records that a
.judge ordered the archdiocese to
share last year.
Church lawyers had argued
that the records requested by
prosecutors were protected by
attorney-client privilege and
should remain private. In a compromise reached last year, a special master was appointed by the
. court to determine which files
should be given to prosecutors

Richard Jefferson's two

Wedding planner rehearses
proper behavior for guests
-

DEAR ABBY: I am a certified wedding planner. With
the wedding season .11pon us,
· I would appreciate it if you
would pubhsh the following
"reminders" for wedding
guests:
·
1. The only people in~ited
are those listed on the invita tion. ' Please do not bring
,uninvited guests. I've seen a
shortage of space and food
at receptions because of this.
(Caterers often charge extra
for the number of guests
exceeding the original
count.)
• 2. Please do not bring children unless they are listed on
the invitation. They may be
the cutest kids in the world
- especially when they're
all dressed up. However, it'-s
the bride and groom's day.
· not an occasion for you to
show off your little ones.
3. Another reason not to
bring uninvited children is
that many reception sites
charge by the number of
attendees, regardless of the
age.
4. If you must bring a
nursing baby to the ceremony, ask to be seated on an
aasle near the back, so a
quick exit can be made if the
baby becomes fussy.
Keep in mind that a wedding day is an occasion the
bride has dreamed of all her

the wrong food and don't
throw up afterward like_she
does.
There is no reason to live
any more. Every day of my
life is miserabl e and I'd
rather nol even be here. You
are my last chance· for help
on how to deal with the se

· POMEROY- Monday in
observance of Memorial Day
in communities. churches and
cemeteries across Meigs
County. residents will pay
tribute to those who gave
their lives in defense of our
country and those who serve
in the military today.
Memorial Day, originally
known as Decoration Day
because it was a time set aside
to honor the war dead by decorating their graves, has been
observed since 1868.
.
Until 1971 when Congress
passed the National Holiday
Act making Memorial Day
into a three-day weekend, it
was celebrated on May 30.

RIO GRANDE - The
travel and tourism business
in Gallia County received a
shot in the arm Wednesday
with the opening of the Bob
Evans Farms Homestead
Museum in Rio Grande.
That was the opinion of
several leaders who attended
the ribbon-cutting ceremony
for the museum's grand
opening.
"This fits into the direction
that we're headed in a family-oriented
tourism
approach," said Bob Hood,
dtrector of the Gallia County
.Convention and Visitors
Bureau.
"This is a great place for a
family to come and bring the
kids and tour at .leisure.
Already we'.ve ·seen some
reaction off our web site to
the museum, reople asking
questions. We ve got a couple of bu s tours already
booked to come out here
later this summer."
Hood said the Homestead
Museum also serves as a catalyst for better marketing of
other Gallia County land-

REED

POMEROY -· The February
ice storm which caused millions
of dollars in property damage,
interrupted utility service for
thousands of Meigs County residents and closed businesses and
government offices is being
blamed for a steep decline in sales
tax revenue for Meigs County.
A sales tax report issued by
Meigs County Treasurer Howard
Frank on Wednesday shows a
$21,000 decline in revenue from
.the county's !-percent sales tax
for the month of February.
The Ohio Department of
Taxation pays the county its sales
tax proceeds two months in
arrears , Frank said, meaning
May 's sales tax receipts of
$76,437,72 reflect the tax collected in February, a month which
saw many retail businesses closed
for days because of utility outages
and unsafe road conditions.
The figure is $21 ,000 less than
that of last February, according to
Frank.
.
'The latest payment puts Meigs
County $26,877 behind collections for the year to date," Frank
said.
'The sales tax is an important
source of revenue because the
county relies on it to assist with
cash flow in meeting operating
expenses each month." .
The county 1 ·experienced a
$6,000 increase m tax revenue in
March, and county officials were
hoping the spike was a sign of a
strengthening local retail economy, but the county's tax collections have consistently dwindled
1n the past two years.
The 2002 collections were
$70,000 less than those of 2000,
and, Frank said Wednesday. the
trend is likely to continue.
