So what's holding the talks West Virginia weather up? The House has yet to hear if the Senate will show up. Sunday, June 22 The House late Thursday AccuWeather.com forecast for da ime conditions tow/hi h tem ratures rejected the changes the Senate made to the bill sponsored by Rep. Jim Aslanides, a PA. Coshocton Republican, and sent that message to the Senate. OHIO The Senate, also meeting at the time to consider a joint committee's final $48.8 billion budget bill, did 1101 take up the concealedaury bill during its session. Aslanides st heduled a meeting for Friday for a conference committee to hash out the differences, but since the Senate hadn't insisted on its amendments to the bill, no VA. committee could be formed.

Aslanides said he believes the Senate eventually will show up ~unbap -~enttnel for the conference committee. The House likely will seek Reader Services changes in the provisions 0 adopted to persuade the patrol to be neutral on the issue. The Senate's version places other restrictions orr people in cars who do not have permits. Aslanides prefers current law, which allows people charged with carrying a concealed · weapon to convince a prosecutor or judge that the weapon was needed because of their job, or for their personal safety. The bill would not change the law for people without pem1its who are not in a car when they are charged. The Senate version al so prohibits the carrying of concealed weapons in public buildings, such as courthou·ses and government offices. Aslanides would allow Ohio's counties to decide whether to ban them.

California re<;luced funding for its corps program by $23.4 million over the piiSt two years. It also is expected to incur an $11.9 million cut to its $45 million funding in the upcoming budget year. The corps closed four residential camps, cut 92 staff positions and reduced the number of corps members by 700 to . about I ,000. Those who lost their corps slots included 128 trained firefi ghters who were tirst responders .to wildfires. "We have taken a significant hit, and it's definitely having an adverse impact·. But, here, the deficit is so deep that we're all victims in this," said Wes Pratt, director of California's corps. In Ohio, the corps has escaped closure several times in the past few years, most recently in 2000 after lawmakers used federal dollars directed to job-training programs to pay for it. But that was a one-time solution, and that federal money already has been promised to other programs for this year. Officials say they knew this year would be the end after Gov. Bob Taft singled out the corps for elimination in his State-ofthe-State s~ech in January because of bght finances. Last year, the coips performed for free $1.4 million worth of work for the .state in forests, parks, recreation areas and natllre preserves, said corps Chief Terrie TerMeer.

(AP) - Gaby Frye didn 't ask for the challenge that would set the course for her post-40 life. But that doesn't mean she isn't up for it. Since she was diagnosed with breast cancer four and a half years ago, Frye, of Mannin~ton , has been dedicated to rrusing awareness about cancer and the amazing work done by The American Cancer Society and Relay For Life, the overnight fund-raising walking event held each year. "Ever since the first time I ever did Relay For Life three years ago, I've been so impressed with the caring of total strangers these people put forth,'' said Frye. Frye is al so the local spokEsperson for breast cancer awareness , and hits highgear every October - Breas t Cancer Awareness Month. "I rah-rnh the ttoops, reminding them about getting mammograms and all that good stuff," Frye said. "But it's not just· in October, and it's not just the night of the Relay. It's a constant." Frye said that while a lot of people have heard of Relay For Life, . few truly understand its purpose. Aside frum giving people a reason to get ·moving, Relay For Life raises the bar on cancer education and raises money for cancer research, Frye said. "It offers education even for people who cancer hasn't touched their lives," she said. "But it prob- Saturday, June 28, 2003 - Look Who~s.making a Splash in your Neig,..borhood!

Pearl Bowling Regional View PROMISE~.gambling problems The Dominion Post of Morgantown: The separation of church and state is one of the reasons we are what we are. Some of us would like to believe it's the reason our nation has flouri shed. while others would point out it's why our nation is morally bankrupt. · We choose to believe the former when the subject arises, and maintai n that's the way it should remain. Our nation 's creation owes its existence to a contradiction: military assistance from one monarchy to defeat another. The . argument then was since we were fightin g for our very li ves, we would have taken guns from the devil himself. A si milar dilemma has arisen in West Virginia. Many state programs are directly funded by taxes on tobacco, alcohol and gambling. One such state program is the PROMISE scholarship program. We 've had mixed feelings about PROMISE since its inception . We opposed financing this program with proceeds from gray machmes. Recently, the director of PROMISE announced that the state will begin promoting this scholarship program in churches, 4H and .summer_camps . When Robert Morgenstern announ ced recently that he was going to as k churches throughout the state to legitimize PROMISE. we got righteous. "If they decide to do a sermon on the value of higher education, we would welcome that," Morgenstern said. So would we, but how do pastors. ministers, priests and rabbis make a case for PROMISE knowing full well it's funded tiy gambling proceeds 7 · Obviously the state is aware of the preponderance of churches in West Virginia. And in many rural areas, the church is the only soc ial institution in town . T)le state normally keeps a healthy distance from working with the church community on projects and programs because of such dilemmas. It is one thing for the state to license and tall gaming machines, but when it asks churches to promote programs that gambling proceeds are dedicated to, we think some congregations might raise their eyebrows and then some. For governments and private businesses to promote these types of arrangement is one thing, but for the church or the Boy Scouts to promote this program, we don' t think so. Yes. West Virginia has one of the poorest college attendance rates in the country despite having one of the better high school graduation rates. And yes, we know a church's mt sston extends beyond morality, encompassing social responsibilities like food banks, a place for community events and faci litating our youth's future . · But to sidle up to the state and promote a scholarship program that exists as a direct result of gambling is heresy. \5 BEING JOHN MALKOVICH · TAKEN~ · All the news thafs fit .... to get wrong We are worried, here in the newspaper business (motto: "What , YOU ne ver make mistakes 7 ") . We're hearing that you readers have lost your faith in us. Polls show that. in terms of public trust. the news media now rank lower than used-car salespeople , kidnappers, tapeworms , Hitler, and airline flight announcements. (We are still slightl y ahead of lawyers .) Of course, these poll results were reported by the news media, so they could be wrong. In fact. there might not actually ·have been 'any polls; it's possible that some reporter made the whole "media credibility" story up. But I don't think so. I think the public is genuinely unhappy with us. Lately, when I tell people I work for a newspaper, I' ve detected the subtle signs of disapproval - the dirty looks: the snide remarks; the severed animal heads in my bed. How did we get into this situation ' Without pointing the linger of blame at any one institution, I would say it is entirely the fault of The New York Times. For many years, the Times was considered a great newspaper, capable as no other paper was - of publishing a Sunday edition the size of a Buick Riviera; But then a Times reporter was caught fakin g datelines. For example, he wrote a story with a West Virgini a dateline, in which he said that the father of Private Jessica Lynch , quote, "choked up as he stood on his porch here overlooking the French Alps." This turned out to be incorrect, and the Times published an 843 ,000-word, 58pound correction, concluding that "from his porch, Mr. Lynch would actually have been looking UP at the French Alps." But it was too late: The bam door of trust had been left open, and the horse of newspaper credibility had run otf. leaving behind the doots of reader doubt. Suddenly. people were taking a hard look at many of the so-called "facts" reponed by the so-called "New York Times,". which - \ve now know - is actually written in Zane s v ille , Ohio, by the same four-person staff that puts out toe Musk in g um Dave C o u n t Y Barry W e e k I Y - - - H arb in g e r Prognosticator. Tragically , because of this one "bad apple," thepublic is losing faith in ALL newspapers. So man effort to restore my prpfesston's reputatipn, today I want to_ tackle, "head-on," , some of the h~ quesuons that you, our readers. are askmg about our busmess: Q: Where do editorials come from? A: We don't know. Every morning. we find a batch of un signed but firmly held opinions lying on our doorstep,_ kind of ltke abandoned babtes. We publish them in the hope that somebody, somewhere, wtll adopt them. Q: Who picks the comics? A: Vice President Cheney. Q: How come when I read a newspaper story on a topi c I' m familiar with , it always contains errors? " A: Th is requires · a complex team effort. which 1 will explain by putting key terms in cap ital letters: First, the REPORTER gathers information by interviewing PEOPLE and trying to write down what they say, getting approllimately 35 percent of it ri ght . The REPORTER then writes a STORY, which goes to an EDITOR, who bitterly rese nts the REPORTER because the REPORTER gets to go outside sometimes. whereas the EDITOR is stuck in the buildin g eating NEWSPAPER CAFETERIA ''FOOD" that was originally developed by construction- industry researchers as a sttbstilllte for PLYWOOD. The EDITOR , fo llowing journalism tradition . decides that the REPORTER has put the real point of the story in the 14th paragraph, which the ED ITOR then attempts to move using the "cut and paste command," which resul ts in the story disappearing into ANOTHER DIMENSION; partly because the EDITOR , like most journali sts, has the mechanical aptitude of a RUTABAGA , but also because the NEW COMPUTER SYSTEM has a few "bug s" as a result of being installed by a low-bid VENDOR whose previous informationtechnology experience con sisted of servicing WHACK-A-MOLE GAMES. So tlie REPORTER and the ED ITOR. who now hate each other even more than they already did, hastily slap a story together from memory. then tun1 it over to a GRAPHIC DESIGN PERSON who cannot actually read but is a wizard on the APPLE MACINTOSH, and who will cut any remaining accurate sentences out of the story to make room on the page fo r a colorful .

Which, of course. reminds me again of the media firestorm around Mrs. Clinton. elected olticial and probable presidential hopeful. that bums on devoid of political substance.

In Manhattan, Ahrensdorf explained how he had called from Nonh Carolina to reserve his family's book.

Many held costume panics to celebrate the book's publication. Lucia and her 5-year-old brotl)er, Matias, each sponed a pair of Harry's trademark black glasses. Others waiting for books at stores here and throughout the wor.ld wore imitations of Harry's lightning-bolt binhmark, dressed in wizard's garb or came as other characters, like Hennione or Hagrid.

The honors haven't stopped for the 18-year-old Whittington, who was recently voted the state's high school player of the year by a panel representing the West Virginia Sports Writers Association. • He becomes the second straight Putnam County player to win the award, following Hurricane's Daniel Carte, who now plays at Division I Winthrop. "That's a nice honor," Whittington said when informed of the award. "l was hoping to make it to the show (the state tournament), and obviously, 'Ve didn't. But I'm surprised with how . everything went, and I thought I had a good year. I guess I'm satisfied." . Whittington went 13-2 as a semor at Buffalo. striking out 187 batters in just 82 innings. an average of 2.3 per inning, while walking only 18. He carried a 0.68 ERA and also hit four homers. His fastball has hit 95 miles an hour on the radar gun. He fired three no-hitters and four one-hitters this season, along with I0 games of 10 or more strikeouts. He whiffed 21 of 22 batters in a no-hit victory against Duval. · Whittington led Buffalo to a 26-6 record and, at the end of the regular season, the No. I ranking in the statewide Class A poll. Buffalo was upset by Waharna in the sectionals. "This state may not see another Anthony Whittington. for a lo?.g timet said Bowles, Buffalo s coach. Thts ktd is the real deal. The scary thing about him - and a lot of scouts ana college coaches and 1good high school coaches who have seen him will ·tell you :... is that this kid can improve.

He's going to mature, and with his reaching maturity and them fixing · his mechanics, he may be the ne,;t (Houston reliever) Billy Wagner, throwing I00 miles an hour." But aside from Whittington's physical skills, Bowles raves about his ace pitch' er's temperament and maturity. . Whittington, the son of a fireftghter, has become a full-fledged firefighter himself and donates much of his spare time to the Ruffalo Volunteer Fire Department. , Over tlie Memorial Day weekend, Whittington flew alone to Tampa, Fla., to work out for the New York Yankees. Eve,n while his contract negotiations · dragged on with the Angels - with a signing bonus estimated between · $600,000 and $1 million hanging in the balance - Whittington remained cool and calm. ''To look at him and talk to him nowadays," Bowles said, "you see he's not worried about it. It doesn't even faze him. I saw him riding around town the other day on this scooter he got when he was 6 years old. It looked like something out of the circus - this big old boy on this little trail bike. · "I know how hard he wants this, but his attitude is like, well, if the Lord's willing, then it's going to happen," he said. · Whittington was so laid-back during contract negotiations that he was tempted to go on a fishing trip with Bowles and his two young sons . . "I'm trying nqt to get too far ahead of myself," Whittington said. ''I'm willing to take it day by day."

Neilson was an NHL coach or scout each of the last 25 seasons but was unable to win a Stanley Cup. This year, he completed his third season as an assistant with the Senators. He reached the Stanley Cup playoffs II times in his 15 seasons as a head coach. "There is 'no way to measure accurately the number of lives Roger Neilson touched, inside and outside the hockey world, during his lifetime of devotion to our game," Bettman said in a siaternent. Ottawa was Neilson's lOth NHL team, and the Seriators' inability to win the Cup this season was a source of considerable dismay for the players. Ottawa lost in the Eastern Conference finals to New Jersey in seven games. His illness forced him to miss some games during the deepest playoff run in Senators' history.

That is their nature. antl things are no different in Ohio. , For tishermcn who don't have the big boats to venture out on Lake Erie or are not close to the lake nr one ofthe state' s larger ri ve rs, there arc st ill options avai lable. Ohio's li' hermen have an abundance of reservoirs at their disposal. Almost all of these large tracts of water are stocked with the most popular game ti sh and have free public access. However, as ·with most ventures that involve the pursuit of tish. there is one little snag. While Ohio's reservoirs offer some of the best caches of tish, they can also' be a virtual font of tishing frustration . . These bodies of water are full of tish, but the layout can often make it difficult to locate or reach them. This can mean that frequently there is a lot of tishing at these reservoirs but not a lot of catching. "In a word, it's- tou~h , pretty tough tishing," Cleveland angler Mtchael Barnes said after . an unproductive couple hours casting from the shoreline of one of six reservoirs around Fostoria in northwest Ohio Barnes was visiting relatives and saw all of lhat water, and just assumed there had to be some' Qretty good fishing as well. · '1 "You know the fish are there, bu~ it's a little like casting into a bath tub. There ·s no real structure or detinition to tell you wnere the tish are. It's real hit-and-miss," Barnes said. "That's what bugs me the most, knowing the fish are out there someplace but not being able to find them." Ohio's many upland resem;Jirs - those that are large earth-benned, flat man-made basins - afford some of the best stocks of bass, walleye and catfish in the state. Surveys by state fisheries experts show that there are plenty of quality-sized fish. The use of small boats on these reservoirs is restricted or prohibited, meaning the bulk of the fishing is often done from shore. The search to find the fish from that vantage point can be fruitless. 'The lack of structure is a problem for fishermen when you're talking about some of the reservoirs," said fisheries biologist Joel Plott with the Ohio Division of Wildlife. "It makes it harder on the fishermen because the location of the fish is a lot more random without some sort of structure." Another difficulty fishermen encounter on Ohio's reservoirs is the clean and clear water AGRICULTURE Intrigue in 2003 NBA NY 03 I , I NEW YORK- ''With the ftrst relatively surprising pick of the 2003 NBA draft, the Toronto Raptors select ... ."

HOME IMPROVEMENT Jim's Farm Equipment Draft start~ at pick No. 4 - a chanK·teristic that i' very desirable to the munidpalitie' that own the reservoirs. The more pristine the water, the more skitt ish the tish. ''The nutrient levels in these reservoirs are very low, and what nutrients are present tend to settle out. leaving them ,_;erv clean and almost 'terilc,'' Plott said. "They are even more extreme lhan most of our lakes in this regard. and when the water is so clear, tish get spooked very easily i1Uhe daylight. The tishing opponunitics are usually best only . in the early moming and late evening." Some tlshermen have resorted to fi shing only early morning on upland reservoirs. and those effon s are often most successful with channel catfish. The II ' hermen !are better in the reservoirs where creeks and rivers have been dammed and large areas of varying depth and conto'ur have been filled with water. Alum Creek Lake , which is north of Columbus, and Pymatuning Reservoir along the Ohio-Pennsylvania border in extreme northeastern Ohio are examples of this type of reservoir. They do not have the clean, straight shorelines, and the flat, structure-free bottoms of the manmade reservoirs. Submerged trees and an abundance of bays and fluctuations in depth make for better fish-holding conditions , but finding the fish still can be a challenge . "There are old railroad tracks down there , lots of trees and stumps, and a whole bunch of other structure that attracts fish. But unless you know wher~ those things are, you can still have a pretty tough time out .there,': said Becky Morrison from Gateway Bait & Tackle in Andover. near PymaiUning State Park in northeast Ohio: ' "There is good walleye and muskie tishi.ng here, and a lot of bass, blue gills and crappies, · too,'' Morrison said. The reservoir is 17,000 total acres, "So unless you know what you are doing, you can waste a lot of time just looking for fish instead of catching them." In an effon to assist anglers in their pursuit of fish , some municipalities have given the state permission to place brush piles or submerged bundles of Christmas trees in their reservoirs. These foreign objects break up the profile along the bottom.and give smaller fish refuge, while actually providing a healthier environment for all of the species in the reservoir. Those smaller forage tish attract the larger tish, and the anglers won 't be far behind. With a little help from anificial fish attractors that give these big basins a bit of character, Ohio fishermen can use their reservoirs for more than just a reliable source of water. ~ ---- GIFTS & COLLECTIBLES WELLNESS & WEIGHT LOSS Precious Memories Herbalife lndi!pendent Distributor www~photosonchina.com www.herbsndietcom MAKE YOUR BUSINESS A HIT!!

PPD is described <L' a group of symptoms that can negatively affect a pregnant or new mother. These symptoms can change her behavior, personality and outlook on life. PPD can begin during pregnancy, shonly after the birth of a baby or anytime within the first year of the baby's life. There are levels of PPD ranging from what is described as mild blues to feel· ings of total despair. Mild or "baby blues" affect 50% to 75% of women usually occuning the first lew days after delivery. ·Symptoms may include crying, irritability. anger, restlessness, and slight anxiety. These symptoms are brief and usually disappear on their own. Some suggestions that may help with mild postpartum blues include: I. Gettmg as much sleep as poss1-· ble: 2. Asking and accepting help from family and fnends ; 3. Finding time for yourself without feeling guilty; 4. Expressing your feelings: 5. Eating a good and healthy diet; 6. Avoiding stressful situations The more extreme feelings of despair are less common than the mild blues. These feelings are more constant and intense and last for a longer peliod of time.

Some other factors that may contribute to postpartum depression include: chronic sleep deprivation, a colicky baby, unrealistic expectations of yourself or your baby, lack of support from family or friends, medical prob!ems or a loss of freedom and/or identity. If you are pregnant or a new mother and are concerned about yourself, there is help available to you. Share your concems with a family member, friend. social worker, pastor or physician.

' �Sunday,· June 22, 2003 Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis, OH • Pt. Pleasant, WV Bas Hot Dog! Take a Closer Loo~ at an American Favorite Think no one eats hot dogs? Think again. Americans purchase 350 million pounds, or nine billion hot dogs, at retail stores each year, according to the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council, an Arlington, Virginia-based group that provides information to manufacturers and consumers about hot dogs and sausages. People sure do love them: the Council estimates that Americans consume 20 billion hot dogs a year, or about 70 hot dogs per person per year. That's a whole lot of hot dogs indeed. In honor of National Hot 'Dog Month, expand your knowledge about the economical,. "., ..•.•.•.•.... ,,.., portable and easyto-prepare food, courtesy of the ' National Hot Dog and Sausage Council. All hot dogs are cured and cooked sausages that consist mainly of pork, beef, chicken and turkey or a combination of meat and poultry. They also contain water and spices like garlic,- salt, sugar, ground mustard, nutmeg, coriander and white pepper. When hot dog -buns were intr6duced, hot dogs were sold in different amounts at the ·butcher. When manufacturers began packaging hot dogs in 1940, they chose to make packs of 10. Today, hot dogs - which are served in 95 percent of homes in the United States are most often soi'd in packs of 8 or 10. Hot dog buns come in 8 packs because they are often baked in clusters qf four. Baking pans now come in different configurations, but the a-roll pan still ranks as the most popular. ln the 189'os, sausages became stand;;rd fare at baseball parks. A German immigrant who also owned a major league baseball team is credited with starting the tradition. Today, nine percent of hot dogs :are purchased at ballparks. Cartoonist Tad Dorgan of the New York Journal heard vendor Harry Stevens shout, "Get your redhot dachshund sausages!" at a game at the New York Polo Grounds in 1901. Dorgan --"""""="-~ e- on m:rtbune - Sentinel - ~e ,Big Screen illustrated the scene with the dachshunds in a bun and the caption, "Get your hot dogs!" The cartoon was so popular that it allegedly coined the term "hot dog:' References to hot dogs ·go back to the 1800s, when German immigrants brought the sausage and their dachshund dogs tagged along with them. It's possible the name "hot dog" began as a joke about the Germans' small, long, thin dogs. Others say it began appearing in college magazines in the Hi90s. Students at Yale University in New Haven, connecticut, used the term "dog wagons" to refer to the wagons outside their dormitories that were selling tiot sausages in buns. The word "dog" became "hot dog" and was referenced in a Yale publication. Some reports say German immigrants first sold hot dogs with buns in the 1860s. Others say a German butcher served sausages with milk rolls from his st.and on Coney · Island in New York. Yet another theory says a concession stand operator at a St. Louis fair in 1904 loaned white gloves for his customers to hold his hot sausages. The gloves were not returned, and his supply ran low. The concessionaire ·sought help from a baker, who made long soft rolls that fit the meat. Nothing gets much better on a summer day than taking in a baseball game. Can't get to the stadium?

"It is also important to wash fruits and vegetables well, only eat meat that has been thoroughly cooked, and to·use separate plates and utensils for raw and cooked meat."
