ADVICE

protect their dwellings and
possessions - and the lives
of firefighters - before the
fires race toward them.
Here's what to do: Go to
your computer and type in
www.firewise . org.
Firewise.org is a free service
of the U.S. Forest Service, the
Red Cross, the National Fire
Prot ection Association and
dozens of other government
and private entities. This Web
site teaches visitors how to
"firewise"
their homes ,
imparting precautions homeowners can take to prepare
their homes to ride out a wildland fire . You cannot
firePROOF a home, but you
can fire WISE it, and by doing
so, you might save .another
firefighter's family unencjing
grief. Sign me ... PRECAUIN
PLACTIOUS
ERVILLE, CALIF.

DEAR PRECAUTIOUS: I
hope millions of homeowners
will take advantage of your
helpful suggestion. This
nation has opel)ed its hean to
firefighters and their families,
especially during the last two
years. The selness courage of
those dedicated men and
women who put their safety
on the line as they move into
burning buildings or burning
wildlands is an inspiration.
We owe them; among other
considerations, a visit to
Firewise.org, which puts preventive measures literally at
our fingenips.
And for those readers who
are not computer-enabled,
you. too, can save a wildland
firefighter's family enduring
heartache by requesting a free
Firewise

DEAR ABBY: I am a

appear blocked early on. The right
attitude will create developments
that could lead to larger returns, or
even a bontts or a raise.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23Dec. 21) - Try not to entangle
yourself with non-producers
today. even if it means you have to
wcrl alone. With a fire hand to
operate independently, your potential for success)ncreases considerably.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19)- Don't think that only tha;e
areas in which you opemte daily
hold all the advantages. Situations
that you can derive some type of
side benefit fium might be your
larg~st producers today
AQUARIUS (Jan. 2~Feb.
19)- Something quite beneficial
could result today tl1mugh people
with whom you'll be socially
involved. However, what you gain
isn't likely to be of a material

will be gained until you get up and
get going.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
An individual who has
promised to help you advance a
present interest should not be
depended upon to contact you. If
your need is urgent, open up the
lines of communication yourself
today.
TAURUS (April 21J.May 20)
-The timing could be propitious
today for implementing some
changes you've needed to make
that would enhance your material
=urity. Don't be shy about it give tl1ings a try now.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
- Someone with whom you'll be

fun to be around when I'm
down . I need an attitude
adjustment so that friends
won't shy away from playing
with me. Any suggestions,
Abby? -SORE LOSER IN
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
DEAR SORE LOSER:
There's an old saying: It's not
whether you win or lose, but
how you play the game that
counts.. You are wise to realize
that your quest for perfection
has become a problem. The
solution is counseling to help
you get to. the root of - and
deal with - your obsession
with always "winning," and
your depression when you
don't.

Urban wildlands bring,risk
of wildfire close to home
DEAR ABBY: I am the
wife of a fireman. I have a
personal stake in letting your
readers know that they can
help to protect the lives of
wildland firefighters as we
experience yet another terrible new fire season. We have
already seen those frightening
orange flames leaping across
our television screens as they
are beaten back by firefighters. Brave men and women
risk their lives to save communities, while families like
ours watch the news and hold
our breath.
Twenty-three firefighters
lost their lives in wildland
fires last year, and more than
6 million acres were reduced
to ashes. This year promises
to be even more costly.
MiVions of Americans live
in
what
is
called
"wildland/urban interface."
These are areas of wild nature
into which homes- and even
cities (18,000 communities)
- have been built. Last year,
the residents of Denver were
shocked to learn that their
metropolis
is
a
wildland/urban interface as
firestorms swept down from
the mountains. When house·s
are threatened or engulfed,
firefighters are at risk.
However, homeowners can

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)
- Evangelist Leroy Jenkins
has agreed stop distributing
his "miracle water" which he
claims heals people.
The Ohio Department of
Agriculture says the bottled
water is contaminated and
can make people sick.
Jenkins told the department he will remove the
pump from the well on his
former Healing Waters
Cathedral property in
Delaware. Water already
bottled fr.om the well will be
disposed of under the
department's supervision.
The
Agriculture
Department said the water
, contained coliform bacteria.
Coliform. which comes
from human and animal
waste, can cause serious illnesses.
Jenkins claimed tests conducted by independent laboratories all found the water
safe for drinking. He said
the state ignored his find- ·
ings.
"(If the water was dangerous) don't you think that
after 30 years we would
have one complaint out of
our congregation?" Jenkins
. asked.
He settled with the state
because, he said, "I'm just
tired of being hassled about
it."

according to police in this
Cleveland suburb.
The fighting started when

Cunin of Parma, who was .

after he saw underage drinking.

The couple were each
charged with misdemeanor
disorderly conduct; resisting
arrest, failure to disperse and

Compton said Tuesday.
They did not return messages seeking comment. The
couple were released from
jail Monday on $5,000 bonds.

Jenkins was fined $200 last
year because he didn 't have a
license to sell the water.
Rather than getting a license,
he agreed to stop selling the
water.

later used undercover agents to
purchase the water from
Jenkins. Again, it contained
coliform, the department said.

Question: I'm pregnant
and expecting my ftrst child
in December. My husband
is a big advocate of breastfeeding, but my mother who bottle fed me and my

Dismantle
Ohio Senate passes a new budget bill
In what seemed like a classic quarterback sneak with seconds remaining in the fo urth quarter, the Ohio Senate passed
a budget bill that eliminates state family planning funding as
we know it.
Using Ohio Right to Life's recommended language, the
budget diverts the family planning funding that has been provided through the Ohio Department of Health to programs
that do not have to provide contraception or preventative ser.vices to women. That's right. Eligibility for funds will no
longer consider the comprehensiveness of services like lifesaving, low cost cancer screenings, Pap tests, colposcopies
and breast exams or testing and treatment for sexually transmitted diseases. And a grantee may choose not to offer birth
control.
The design of the new bill gives funding precedence to
local health departments. which. on the surface, may sound
reasonable. However, many local health departments, quite
siinply, aren't set up to provide these serv ices and building
them into already tight budgets would require hiring and
training new employees. Subcontracting with another agency
would be a solution here but the new guidelines do not permit it.
If local health departments do not apply for these funds,
agencies like Planned Parenthood would then be eligible to
apply, but so would scores of other organizations that don't
provide a full range of preventative services, ultimately
impeding women's access to care and jeopardizing their
health,
This political maneuver not only puts women's lives at risk
but it contradicts the very core of Ohio Right to Life's mission to decrease unwanted pregnancy and abortion. The teen
pregnancy and abortion rates, already staggering in Southeast
Ohio, will likely increase with this new bill . That's a huge
responsibility to take on when the benefits of family planning
have been noted for more than JO years.
Family planning has been making women's and children's
lives better and healthier and the improvements in maternal
and child health have been . so dramatic, the Centers .for
Disease Control and Prevention hailed family planning as
one of the ten most important public health advances of the
20th Century.
We know there was little time to prevent this bill from passing in the Senate and that the budget is signed and sealed for
the next two years. But it's not too late to call or write your
state senator to say that you intend to see family planning
funding restored to the state budget. Let them know you
want to prevent abortion and keep women healthy and children wanted.
·
In the meantime, Planned Parenthood of Southeasf Ohio
will lead that charge as we have been doing for 33 years,
thanks to the majority of the public who believe in the work
we do.

Only one fourth-gr.Kle student
in 10 attending public schools in

our nation's capital is proficient in
~g. acoording to the Nalional
Assessment of Education
Progress. Only one fourth-gr.Kler
in 16 is proficient in math.
The poor showing isn't
because the District of
Columbia shortchanges its public school system. The .capital
city 'lays out nearly $11,000 per
student annually, the third-highest level of per-pupil spending
in the entire country.
That's one reason why it is
heartening to see that Sen. Dianne
Feinstein of California has broken
ranks with her fellow Democrats,
parted ways with the public teachers unions and thrown her support
behind a voucher program for the
District's rniseducated school
children.
The five-year pilot progrtun,
proposed by Washington Mayor
Anthony WiUiams, targets the
city's lower-income parents,
offering them vouchers of up to
$7,500 with wltich they can pay
for tuition and fees at any private school in the district.
Since Congress has direct
control over the district's government, it has to approve the
proposed voucher program. The
bill before Feinstein and her
Senate colleagues would provide $15 million and be the first
time federal tax dollars would
be spent on vouchers.
"Ultimately," wrote Feinstein,
in a commentary published this
week in The Washington Post,
"this issue is not about ideology
or political correctness. It is

Joseph
Perkins

about providing a new Opportunity for good education, which
is the key to success."
Meanwhile, in California, the
public teachers unions were
furious with the state's senior
senatorc for reversing her 30
years of opposition to vouchers.
"She knows better," Barbara
Kerr, president of the California
Teachers Association, told the
Los Angeles limes. "I have no
idea why she's doing this. It's
out of character. and it doesn't
make sense."
"We're just appalled," Mary
Bergan, president of the
California
Federation
of
Teachers, told The San Francisco
Chronicle. "&amp;peciaUy since we
had contacted her and told her
about the lack of wisdom in this
whole proposal."
Kerr and Bergan, like teachers-union officials around the
country, profess concern for the
well-being of schoolchildren.
But they really don't care how
poorly those kids are educated - so long as their miseducation
takes place in public schools.
That's because the CfA and
CFf and other public teachers
unions are primarily interested
in the money attached to students - the $11,000 per pupil

in the district, the nearly $7,000
per pupil in Calilomia.
If they were honest, they'd
admit that they really don't
mind losing public school students to private schools. That is.
so long as the tax dollars spent
on behalf of those students the $11,000 or $7,000 or whatever - remains behind in the
public school system. But
they'll be darned if they will
allow those tax dollars to follow
those kids to private or
parochial schools.
Of course, the voucher issue
would be moot if the public
schools in Washington, D.C.,
and in far too many cities
throughout the country were
doing a good job of educating
youngsters. But public education is highly uneven. Many
public schools provide their students quality instruction. But far
too many more are promising
parents that their children will
be properly educated, and failing to deliver.
For example, the Kwachiiyoa
charter school in San Diego, a
supposedly model teacher-run
campus. guaranteed parents
that all of its student graduates
would gain college admission.
Kwachiiyoa was one of six
charter schools nationwide to
receive funding and support
from the National Education
Association, the nation's
biggest public teachers union. It
wa~ supposed to be run with
help from the state teachers
union. which sponsored the
charter school, and the San
Diego Education Association,

the local teachers union.
The union-backed, publicly
funded ' charter school has been
forced to close its doors by the
end of this month, after opening
for classes in fall 1999. It boasted the lowest ratings on the
state's Academic Performance
Index. a ranking system based
on standardized test scores.
Keep in mind, the Golden
State's public schools aren't
high-performing. .Only one
California fourth-grade student
in five last year was at or above
proficiency in reading, acconding to the National Assessment
of Education Progress. And not
even one in five was at or above
proficiency in math.
Kerr and Bergan would have
miseducated children remain in
failing public schools - like
Kwachiiyoa in San Diego rather than have the federal or
state or local government provide their parents with vouchers
that could be used in better private or parochial schools.
Sen. Feinstein, in good conscience, is unwilling to sacrifice yet another generation of
children to failing public
schools just to keep the teachers unions happy. So she supports vouchers for needful
schoolchildren in Washington,
D.C. And maybe one ·day
she 'II support vouchers for noless-needful children in
California and every other
state.

One of the first things
Sutton is doing is becoming
acquainted with the staff.
"My first step is to get to
know the employees, the
consumers as well as people
in the county and to find out
how I can help," he said.
Oliver said she 1s
impressed with Sutton 's
"people skills."
"He has a good handle on
the human aspect of helping

seniors and he has a good
rapport with the staff," she
said.
A lifelong Athenian and
Ohio University graduate,
Sutton is moving to Meigs
County.
"Being from Athens, I am
very familiar with the needs
and services of the area
including what the Meigs
County Council on Aging
provides," he said.
Oliver sa.id residing here
will be of great benefit to
him in his new position.
"He is really eager about
living here and I think this
will be a real asset in his role
as executive director," she
said.

A's defeat Indians, 6~2
BY GREG BEACHAM

Associated Press
OAKLAND, Calif. - Mark
Mulder had II strikeouts while
pitching into the eighth inning,
leading the Oakland Athletics to
a 6-2 victory over the Cleveland
Indians on Tuesday night.
Ramon Hernandez had a tworun double in the seventh as the
A's scored five late runs to
avoid wasting another sterling
start from Mulder ( 14-7), who
joined Toronto's Roy Halladay
and Baltimore's Sidney Ponson
as the AL's 14-game winners.
Mulder finished one strikeout
shy of his career-hi~. allowing
seven hits and retinng 14 of 15
at one point. He also wa~ four
outs shy of what would have
been his major league-leading
eighth complete game, but
Keith-Foulke finished up for his
27th save in 31 chances.
Terrence Long aljli Eric
Chavez also drove in -runs for

their first home game since the

where Cleveland has lost live

seven of nine overall .
Milton Bradley homered for
Cleveland before gettin_g ejected in the eighth inmng for
vociferously arguing a called
third strike. Ryan Ludwick also
homered for the Indians, who
took a lead into the seventh but
couldn't hold on.
Brian Anderson (8-8) struck
out six and retired II straight
batters during six strong
innings, but he lost for just the
second time in nine starts
thanks to a rocky seventh.

Hernandez hit reliever Jason

Ten years later, he's back. This time, he's in
charge.
One of the Reds' !J10St loyal employees
finally got his chance to manage in the majors
when Bowden and manager Bob Boone were
fired Monday as part of a front office
makeover.
Miley, 41 , will be interim manager for the
rest of the season, trying to steady the team
through uncertain times. The Reds don't
expect to hire another general manager until
after the World Series, then chose a manager.
If the Reds do well for the rest of the season, Miley .could be a candidate. He arrived in
Cincinnati on Tuesday with no promises and
no pretensions. After spending his entire
career with the Reds, first as a minor league
catcher and then as a minor league coach or
manager, he was just glad io arrive.
"With the time you spend down there, you
wonder if it's ever going to happen," he said.
"I spent all those years in the organization,

got unearned runs on Chavez's
run·-scoring double and Chris
Singleton's sacrifice fly.
Except for two home-run
balls, Mulder was tirmly in contrql against Cleveland. It was
the fifth I 0-strikeout game of
his career - and his second in
a row, following his !!-strikeout performance in a 3-0 win
over Seattle last Thursday.
Mulder struck out the side in
the seventh, earning a standing
ovation. Mulder was the first
Oakland pitcher with back-tohack I 0-strikeout ~ames since
Todd Stottlemyre d1d it Sept 20
and 26. 1995.
Plate
umpire
Bruce
Froemming called two straight
strikes a~ainst Bradley in the
eighth mning, leading · to
Mulder's II th strikeout. After
the final strike, Bradley
screamed at Froemming before
being led back to the dugout by
manager Eric Wedge.
But Bmdley turned and threw
his bat and helmet in the direction of home plate, drawing an
ejection.

and I always wanted the big club to win."
His loyalty was a factor in hi s long-awaited
promotion. Miley had chances to leave for
other organizations, but s~uck it out with the
Reds, who chose him out of high school in the
second round of the 1980 amateur draft.
"My claim to fame is I was drafted before
Eric Davi s," he said .
Injuries to his right knee slowed him, and
he took the Reds up on an offer to start coaching in the minors at age 24. He has spent the
last seven years managing their Triple-A
teams.
When he arrived and held a team meeting
on Tuesday, he looked around and recognized
the majority of the players. He then thanked
them for making it possible for him to get to
the big leagues.
Shortstop Barry Larkin , who has been
through eight other managers during his 17year career with the Reds, doesn't have any
memories of Miley from the 1993 season.
"He was a guy that just kind of fit in,"
Larkin said. "I think a good manager is one
who lets his players go out there and play. I
think that's what he'll do. A lot of guys really
like him . I have not played for him, but in
spring training I spent time with him. He's
one of those guys that doesn't make waves.
He makes everybody comfortable."

Gilbertson takes over as head football
.coach at University of Washington
BY JtM COUR
Associated Press
· SEATILE - Five months ago, Keith
Gilbertson had · an opportunity to leave
Washington and become an assistant
.coach in the NFL.
The Huskies open the season Aug. 30 at
defending national champion Ohio State.
Gilbertson was tempted .by the chance
to return to the pros, but the timing wasn't
·quite right. He wanted to stay to coach
quarterback Cody Pickett and receiver
Reggie' Williams - the stars of the
· Huskies' offense.
It turned out to be a good move.
The Huskies offensive-coordinator took
over as hea~ football coach Tuesday, the
day after Rick Neuheisel's firing became
: official.

·•

"What's taken place has been hard on
everybody," said Gilbertson, who was
Neuheisel's offensive coordinator for four
seasons. "It's been hard on our alums, it's
been hard on our fans, it's been hard on
our team, it's been hard on Barbara and
it's been hard on Rick Neuheisel and his
family."
Gilbertson will earn $870,000 a year
under a four-year contract, according to
athletic director Barbara Hedges.
"We're very fortunate to have a person
on our staff with the background and
experience to assume the head coaching
position," Hedges said at a campus hews
conference attended by fanner coach Don
James.
Gilbertson, who has supervised the
football program's day-to-day operations
since last month, was also the team's
offensive coordinator under James when

the Huskies won a national championship
in 1991.
James said he couldn't think of a better
head coach for the Huskies.
"He's qualified, he's certified and he's
good," James said. "All he wants to do is
go out and recruit kids, bring them here,
coach them and go out and play. I think
that's what they got: A real, good, solid
football man.~·
Hedges ftred Neuheisel for breaking
NCAA gambling rules by participating in
neighborhood pools dunng the past two
NCAA basketball tournaments. She said
he wasn't forthcoming when first questioned by NCAA investigators.
Gilbertson was the head coach at Idaho
from 1986 to 1988 and at California from
1992 to 1995. He had a combined record
of 48-35 at those two schools over seven
seasons.

Associated P'ress
GEORGETOWN, Ky. -The Cincinnati Bengals signed
second-round draft pick .Eric Steinbach on Tue sday to a
four-year, $3.63 million contract.
Steinbach, a guard from Iowa, received a $1.8 million
signing bonus, and his contract includes a chance to earn at
least $460,000 in incentives, agent Jack Bechta said.
Steinbach was 'in Cincinnati about 2 p.m. Tuesday when
he got the call that the deal was done. He immediately
drove the 70 miles to Georgetown College, signed his contract and was in uniform for the last 30 minutes of practice.
"I was glad I was able to get down here and get some
work in," Steinbach said. "l only missed a-day and a half,
so I don't think I'm that far behind. "
Steinbach is listed as the Bengals' starting left guard, the
only rookie expected to start this season.
"For his l;lOSition, he's a very athletic player," coach
Marvin Lewts said. "He's a big man who has a great desire
to be a great football player."
The Ben~als still have one unsigned draft pick - thirdround rece1ver Kelley Washington of Tennessee.
Also Tuesday, Cincinnati acquired rookie offensive lineman Noah Swartz off waivers from Dallas. Swartz, a
University of Toledo product, signed with the Cowboys as
a free agent after the 2003 draft
·
Three players missed parts of practice Tuesday with
injuries: receiver TJ. Houshmandzadeh (hamstring), tight
end Matt Schobel (hamstring) and defensive tackle Ron
Smith. Lewis said Smith has a slightly tom tendon in his
right biceps.

Browns sign cornerback
BEREA- With their two drafted cornerbacks still not at
training camp because of .contract holdouts, the Cleveland
Browns signed free agent defensive back Jermaine Jones
on Tuesday.
The 5-foot-9, 185-pound Jones gives the Browns some
insurance in case they can't sign either cornerback Chris
Crocker (third round) or Michael Lehan (fifth round).
Crocker and Lehan are two of Cleveland's five unsigned
draft picks.
Jones, who played at Northwestern State, was originally
selected in the fifth round of the 1999 draft by the New
York Jets. After being released, he spent part of '99 with the
Chicago Bears and was with the Dallas Cowboys in 2001.
Last year, he played for Dallas of the Arena League.

Lineman goes down at Jags' camp
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, - Jacksonville Jaguars tackle
John Henderson had shortness of breath and was taken to a
hospital Tuesday, the second player on the team to have
problems with the heat at trainmg camp.
The 6-foot-7, 328-pound Henderson was released from
the hospital a few hours later, but it wasn't immediately
known when he would be back at practice. Trainer Mike
Ryan said his outlook seemed good.

Man ·douses flame Qf
romance by hiding on Couc~
DEAR ABBY: I staned a
new job eight months ago. A
handsome guy works there,
and I waited five months
before I asked him out. Since
then, we go out to lunch
together three days a week
and eat in the office the other
days. He calls me at home in
the morning to see i~ I want
him to bring me a cu · of coffee to work. He also s ares his
thoughts and feelings with
me. I like him a lot.
Last Saturday night, I
arrived at his apanment and
he had candles lit, wine
chilled, and served cheese and
crackers. It was very romantic. We ate and drank and had
a wonderful conversation. A
little later, he went to lie on
bis bed and watch TV. He
invited me to lie next to him
- and I did. (Mind you, we
have never kissed .or anything.) When I reached out to
hold his hand, he immediately
got up and went to the bathroom. Then he came out with
a blanket, walked to the
couch, covered himself and
went to sleep. I invited him to
sleep next to me on his bedbut he refused. I went home.
I think he's really nice,
cute, sman and sweet. Am I
rushing things, or do you
think he just wants to be

The Caplingers of Chillicothe didn 't pull any rabbits out of top hats Wednesday, but they did
delight young and old alike with an old-fashioned magic show at the Pomeroy Library. The
Caplingers' visit included two magic shows as part of the library's ongoing summer reading
program. Slight of hand, card tricks, rope tricks and a humorous recreation of a Houdini-style
escape, shown here with Jered Hill assisting, were on the bill. Child participants were happy
to assist the husband-wife team with their tricks. and were rewarded with token gifts for their
efforts. The library's reading program wrapped up Wednesday evening with a pool party at
Syracuse's London Pool. (Brian J. Reed)

POMEROY -Economic
development
efforts
through the county's economic development office
are expected to continue for
the remainder of 2003, but
the county's ongoing contract with the Meigs County
Chamber of Commerce for
those services has ended.
Meigs County was the
first in Ohio to dedicate
Prevention, Retention and
Contingency Funds through
Temporary Assistance for
Needy Families to fund economic development efforts
in 1999, just after the state
reformed its welfare system
and turned control of welfare funds over to county
commissioners.
At the time, both local and
state officials saw the use of
those TANF funds for economic development and job
creation as proactive, and a
long-term approach to
improving the local economy.'
In addition to staffing the
economic development and
tourism operations, TANF
funds were also used to
offer workforce training and
other incentives for new
businesses in the county.
Since that time, the county has continued a contract
with the Chamber of
Commerce for those services,
and
Economic
Development
Director
Perry Varnadoe and members of the economic development and tourism office
staff have worked on the
county's behalf but as
chamber employees.
Meigs
County
Commissioner Jeff Thornton

said last week a change in language relating to partnership
agreements between the state
and its counties has made
such a contract arrangement
improper. Now, Varnadoe and
an administrative assistant are
being paid by the county as
county employ~s. while continuing to work from the
chamber's headquaners on
West Main Street.
"There are no general fund
dollars being used to fund the
economic
development
office," Thornton said. "It is
important people realize that
the funding source for these
services has not changed, but
the contract with the chamber of commerce has been
discontinued because of
changes in state law."
Thornton said there are no
plans to discontinue the
economic development program in the county, but said
the commissioners will fund
it on a year-to-year basis
through the TANF 'program.
"We have plans to continue
and possibly expand our economic development team in the
future," Thornton said. 'We see
the need for a full-time worlcforce development professional, and we need to continue our
efforts in marketing the county
as a tourist destination."
With the resignation of
and
Retail
Tourism
Development
Director
Betsy Nicodemus earlier
this summer, only a pantime temporary employee is
staffin~ the office, and handling mquiries relating to
the Morgan's Raid Reenactment scheduled for
September and other touristrelated events. Thornton
said the county plans to hire
a full-time tourism director,
as well, using TANF funds.
