At No Borders USA, which opened in April in the Parmatown Mall in suburban Parma, customers bring in their prescriptions and the store orders the medicines from a pharmacy in Calgary, Alberta. . Federal and state officials say such stores violate laws that prohibit importation of foreign drugs not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Adrni nistration. No Borders sends about I,000 prescriptions a month to the Canadian pharmacy and receives a small fee for each .prescription, said Ken Ladley, vice president of the Westlake company. Retired Strongsville couple Donald and Jo<m Martin said the store helped them save $360 for a three-month supply of three medicines they usually buy at a dfugstore. Prescriptions should arrive within two weeks, and customers pay a $12.95 shipping fee . "This is a good thing," said Donald Martin, who is in his 70s and has no insurance that covers prescription drugs. William Hubbard, associate commission.er for policy and P.lanning at the FDA, satd stores that import drugs often lure customers with false claims about the medicines being safe and effective. "We're trying to warn people these drugs are unsafe and you're going outside the safety net. Foreign authorities can't protect Americans," he said. No federal or state officials have contacted No Borders, Ladley said. The company opened another branch last week in Summit Mall in Akron, and Ladley said he is negotiating for space in four other northeast Ohio The FDA, failed to stop the U.S. House of Representatives from passing legislation two weeks ago to make it easier to import drugs, which can be half or even a tenth the cost of an identical product sold in America. The bill, expected to face resistance in the Senate, would set up system to allow importation of FDAapproved drugs from FDA-approved facilities in Canada, the European Union and seven other nations.

Valerie Bernard, president of Executive Training Centers, and a resident of Point Pleasant, believes a performing arts center for the tri-county and its potenlial for reaching out to the area is a valuable component in local economic .regeneration.

"I recently had the opportunity to visit several centers in other areas of the Uniled States and could see what a huge contribution they make in community pride." The survey seeks information on demographics, but focuses mainly on respondents' thoughts and desires on live musical or theatrical performances, as well as the visual arts. The survey is being distributed in Gallia and Meigs counties to gauge tri-county sentiments on establishing a performing center.

Rumor of Powell }s ' departure deflated The Clarion-Ledger, Jackson, Miss., on Colin Powell: First of all, there is no truth to the rumor that North Korea wants to mass-produce the new Jennifer Lopez-Ben Affleck movie '.'Gigli." Apparently, that bomb i s far too much for Kim Jong II and his minions to handle. Best to stay with the nuclear stuff, which, apparently, is far less daunting than " Gigli.'" Here's the question : Why is the press taking such glee .in the failure of J.Lo and her boyfriend Ben, and why did the folks reject the film in the first place? Other terrible movies at least got an initial sampling. Well , the short answer is that "Gigli" is beyond terrible. It makes J.Lo"s appearance in "Anaconda" look like "Citizen Kane. " But the more serious problem for J.Lo and Ben is that like Madonna, Angelina Jolie and Billy Bob Thornton, and other exhibitionistic performers, putting your love life on display is offensive and crude to many of us. And that becomes a factor when deciding what entertainment vehicle to spend your $9 on and which performers to take seriously. Bill O'Reilly There·s a reas.on it's called your "private life."' Personal intimacy is supposed to be shared feelings of affection between two people. It 's not su pposed to be bartered for magazine covers and segments on ··Entertainment Tonight ."" Does anyone in their right mind think that actress Demi Moore is helping her image by dating a guy Who could be in charge of a frat house"1 Would Meryl Streep do thi s? Would Holly Hunter run all over Southern California holding hands with Eminem 0 Sure, it would get her publici, ty, but what about di gnity ? That" s the key word here. Most Americans are far more traditional than the elite media wants to believe . Public displays of affection are off-putting to many, especially if they are incessant. I mean, is there a person in his or her right mind who wants any more " insight" into the relationship of Jolie and Thornton? Enough already. And it"s not just famous people in play here . If you are making your private life a public spectacle , that will eventually hun you . We all know people who can· t stop talking about their "relationships." Do you want to go camping with those folks? Critical mass is reached quite quickly with this kind of stuff. I believe M s. Lopez and Mr. Affleck have severely worn out their welcome. Their in-your-face Jove affair has become obnoxious. ~ave They, them selves, become tabloid cartoons and have lost credibility among those who are not really interested in salacious gossip. The careers of Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Bunon the nose-dived after ··cteopatra·· soap·opera, and I cou ld give you dozens of other examples of famous people who have damaged themselves after marketing their personal Jives. It never works. We are a nation constantly looking for the new thrill , the new dish. the new scandal . We easily tire of publicity hounds like Roseanne, M adonna and Michael Jackson, who have all learned the hard way. Dignity is what Americans admire. as the recent reaction to the death of Bob Hope proves . Nobody is pert_ect, and all personal mteracttons have speed bumps. But fighting for your privacy is a sign of character. Telling all about your latest love exploits is not. Jennifer, Ben . Angelina, Demi and all the others would be wise to rethink what they are putting out there. Fame may be the name of the short-term game, but self-respect is the key to a successful life . (Veteran TV rre11·s anchor Bill O"Reillr is host of tire Fox News ·show "The 0 'Reillv Factor" arrd author of the rre;,, book '"The No Spin lime, " in addition to last rears best-selling book ""Tire O'Reillv Facror: Tire Good, tire Bad, arrd tire Completelv Ridiculous." ) If the speculation that Secretary of State Colin Powell would resign if President Bush is reelected was meant as a trial balloon, it flopped horribly. Powell has disputed the rumors, which were trigged by a repon in The Washington Post on Monda~. The Post reported that Powell's deputy, Richard L. Arrmtage told National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice that he and Powell will leave on Jan . 21,2005, the day after the illauguration, quoting •·sources familiar with the conversation." The Post said: "Rice and Deputy Defense Secretary Paul D. Wolfuwitz are the leading candidates to replace Powell." The report triggered feverish specu lation . ... The fact remains that Powell is a pillar of credibility in the administration 's foreign policy, despite his appearance Feb. 5 at the U.N. Security Council in which he c1ted the administration "s specifics of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq that have since not proven to exist. Even a hint of Powell leaving has negative repercussions, which the administration must note with some gravity.

Lanes 1037 State Route 7N 446-3362 Reunions Phone booths still have a place TODAY IN HISTORY Community events Garden clubs Hold, please ... To the American Public Communications Council that thinks the phone booth is headed for extinction: Please put that thought on hold. · Despite what you see on films, TV shows and commercials, not everyone carries a cell phone. Costs for cell phone service are not yet down to the affordability level where most people could have one. And even when that cost does comes down, it's no guarantee that all will get one- or that the one they get will be usable where and when they need to use it. The great thing aboot phone booths are their convenience and low cost. If they were taken away, where would people who can 't afford a monthly bill be able to make a phone call, especially an emergency 91 I call? ... On the bad side, phone booths have gotten a seedy reputation thanks to drug dealers and other ne'er-do-wells who use them as their front office, pun intended. On the good side, the old-style booth with the folding door allows pnvate conversation, something missing in today's world. As anyone who's been in a waiting room recently can concur. now we ' re forced to eavesdrop on inane conversation s about picking up groceries or the kids for their soccer game. If we wanted to know people's life stories, we'd watch the reality show. Leave us to pore over well-thumbed issues of Good Housekeeping and People in peace, please. . Let 's not be in a rush to say farewell to the phone booth. There are plenty of people left who depend on its availability.

Why is EVERY male child in the United States under the age of 7 current! y named either Jacob or Matthew? But the most urgent question is: How did the bluegill get into the angler's esophagus?

He especially kept an eye on former fullback Chad · Brinker, who is now with the New York Jets. Simmons learned a lot from Brinker. "Watching (Brinker), not . only on the field but off the : field, he has a really strong · work ethic,' said Simmons. : "He works really hard and he : tries to encourage the : younger players.

Fonner Meigs great Justin Roush and Wellston standout Brad Young are giving local fans something to get excited about. As it stands right now, Young is the starting fullback for the Bobcats on opening day when they play host to Southeast Missouri State on Aug. 28, while Roush is in a heated battle with Ray Huston for the halfback job. With the Bobcats going with a running back by committee approach with the depanure of Chad Brinker. who had 1,142 yards rushing and I0 touchdowns last year. to the New York Jets. anything is possible. · "We always joke about that," said Roush. "That's something we never thought would happen. I look forward to that and hopefully that' will happen and I think we' II do well. ."It 's like playing high school (football) all over again, sometimes. You've got two buddies and it'll be fun. " Roush is still fifth all-time on the state's rushir~g chans with 6,376 career yards on the ground from 1996-1999 with the Marauders. Last year, Roush got his chance to show what he can do in the backfield despite Brinker's dominating presence. Roush has 12 carries for 120 yards, including a career high 57 yards on II carries against Eastern Michigan. With Brinker out of the picture, Roush realizes now is as good a time as any to step up.

"~ weather is what is best for the team though. ' Charles is a new addition to an already stron¥ Marshall backfield.

Upon his arrival to the Herd, the junior college · transfer was impressive to both coaches and fans. In the Green-White Spring game, the 6-1, 215-pound Brooklyn, N.Y. native ran for 34 yards on four carries with a touchdown and also took a screen pass 82 yards for a score. He believes he is getting a good handle on things. " I am catchin¥, on alright, ' Charles said.

"I think it's great for the Southeast Ohio guys and local kids to see two guys doing well and playing well.

For Roush, playing for Ohio, which is only a half an hours drive from Meigs High School, means more than wins and losses. "As a local kid, you don't just play for yourself sometimes. because you know there's a lot of people out there wanting you to do well becau se you represent all Southeast Ohio," said Roush.

Colo. (AP) - Davis Love Ill tied a PGA Tour record with three eagles Friday and doubled his lead after two rounds of The lntematjonal. Love. who was in front by five points after the opening round. had 17 .points in the second round for a 36-hole total of 36 under the modified Stableford scoring system used in this event. That was good for a 10-point lead over John Rollins. whose 15-potnt round gave him 26. Phil Mickelson was at 22. : Asked if he has ever had consecutive rounds like these, Love said, "I. don ' t think ~o. Th~se are two pretty incredible back-toback rounds. Everything is going just right." He eagled three - each worth 5 points in hi s first 10 holes - and threatened to run away with the tournament at Castle Pines Golf C lub. During his morning round, Love increased his lead to as many as 25 points. and when be fini shed his round he had a 17-point cushion. ' : ··oavis is doing something unbelievable," said Sergio Garcia, who had 10 points. "We're preuy much playing for second at the moment." , But that was before.Rollins began chipping away at the lead. "It looked like Davis was going to have 40some points, and we figured it .was his tournament already," Rollins said. "But I saw he was only at 36 and I started to make some birdies and got over the 20 mark. At the end of the. day. now I feel like I have a chan·ce. " In this format, 10 points is nothing. You make two eagles and you're tied." Vijay Singh and journeyman Kent Jones each had 19 points. Charles Howell Ill and Bob Tway each had 18 and Retief Goosen had 17. The scoring systein gives players 8 points for a double eagle. 5 points for an eagle. 2 points for birdie. zero for par. minus- I for bogey and minu s-3 for double bogey or worse.

Sunday, August to, :1003 College Football NASCA A TOP 10 Despite changes, Pitt still looking Sarles to the East, not the M-idwest BY ALAN ROBINSON Associated Press PITTSBURGH - Pittsburgh will start this college football season in the Top 15 nationally but only No. 3 in the Big East. an on-the-rise ptog.ram but one still chasing Miami and Virginia Tech . Next year. ·it could be an entirely different ballgame one that might find the Panthers emerging as the preeminent progmm in the country's most heavily populated regiOn . The depllrture of Miami and Virginia Tech from the Big East after this season will create hardships for the remain ing conference schools. but it will also create opportunities. Pittsburgh coach Walt Harris is already using them in sales pitches to prospective recruits. Not long ago. his pitch was the chan~:e to play against some of the nation's top pro. grams before u very large audience. Now. he can sell more than that . mm·h more. "'Quite a few years ago. in 1976. we had the best product in college football . and in 1979-80-81. we lost only o ne game in those seasons. If we have the opportunitv to challenge to be like thai again ... it's ex..:iting," HatTis said. Harri s attaches an asterisk to that statement by poiining out. "It's also what Boston College and Svracuse and West Virginia~ are sayi ng , too." But when Miami and Virginia Ted1 relm:ate to the Atlanti<: Coast Conference in 2004. the window of opponunity for Pitt to move into college football's elite won't he more wide open since' the (tforementioned days when .Johnny Majors and Judie Sherrill coached the Panthers. "I like playing Miami and i "I like playing Miami and Virginia Tech, our players like playing them and the · challenge of playing them.

"Miami's the best . ... But if we have the opportunity (to play for a national<'hampionship). thm's exciting. too ." Even after Mian~i and Virginia Tech leave. the Big East is guaranteed of sending m leust one team to a major bowl in 2004 and 2005 via the BCS pro,·ess. After several years of strong·recruiting. Pitt has positioned itself to be that ·team.

Pitt's new athletic director. Jell Long. likes to think of what such an increase might mean to his bottom line. With Pitt bound to lose revenue once Miami and Vir~inia Tech leave, he needs to hnd every way to make up for the mi ssing dollars. Pitt will lose about $225.000 in revenue this year because ESPN is paying nearly $J million less for the Big East's basketball rights than it did a year ago. Also. with star guard Brandin Knight leaving and the untested Jamie Dixon reph~eing Ben Howland as coach. there is no guarantee Pin will again sell out every home basketball game. Pitt fa,·es even steeper revenue .:uts next year. when ABC and ES PN plan to renegotiate their Big East football rights fees once Miami and Virginia Tech leuve. Lo11g. has seen how a decline in revenue has affect ed other Big East schools West Virginia cut a handful of minor sports earlier this year to save money - and he real it.es adjustments may oe necess;try at Pittsburgh . too . "It's unclear how nutch of an impact it (the rcnegotalions) will have," Long said. "The Olympic (minor) sports are important to us but. as we navigate this conference lundsc;tpe. we 'II need to look at ~:uts. · revenue generatio n. in~:reasing til·ket sales ;md donut ions ... we ' II need to look harder to lind way s to offset (any drop in revenu~ ). "But we 're confident we c:m do that." Despite the loss of the conference's two biggest marquee names. there doesn · t appear to be any strong movement at Pill to abandon the Big East and seek altematjve membership. such as in the Big Ten. Long has been on the job only a couple of months. but he hasn't detected any interest in dropping Boston College and Syracuse and replacing them with Purdue or Wisconsin. · Even if the Big East's foot ball-only schools split from th~ basketb<lll-onlv schools to form a slimmed-down ~onfer­ cnce. expect Pinsburgh to go along. .

The rectangular ponds, surrounded by corn and soybean fields, are teeming with catfish destined for grocery stores and restaurants. Last year, Munlock cleared about $660 in per-acre on three ponds spanning 15 acres - a I0 percent return on investment. "If we could do that on all of our crops, we would be happy," said Murdock, a retired University of Wisconsin soil and water management professor who also farms 2,600 acres of com, soybeans and wheat. Once a novelty in Kentucky. catfish farming has gained a foothold as a source of added income for farmers trying to stay afloat amid tobacco's decline and low prices for row crops. Murdock was a founding m~mber of the Purchase Area Aquaculture Cooperative. Formed in 1999. the co-op riow has 53 members producing about 2 million pounds of catfish on 436 acres in far westem Kentucky. The co-op. small compared with vast catfish operations in the Deep South, harbors big ambitions. It want's to reel in more farmers to triple production by 2005. Plans include adding a large storage fJreezer to its processing plant at this tiny crossroads town in Graves County. Farmers may eventually add paddlefish and striped bass to their stocks. Murdock got out of tobacco years ago and dabbled in on:hards to diversify his farm. A fJreeze wiped out his peach production, souring him on raising fruit. "We've been experimenting with a lot of different things and we came to the conclusion that this was the thing that had the greatest potential for us," Murdock said during a break from bui!ding a new pond. Proponents say the region has built-in advantages - clay-like soil that compacts to hold water, an underground aquifer that supplies ample water to fill ponds and a ready supply of grain for fish feed. · Touting its catfish as Kentucky r~ised, the co-op's market reaches beyond Boris Said has had enough of being a road racing "hired gun." He wants to be a fulltime driver on NASCAR's top circuit. 'T m going to try my hard. est to make it happen." he said. Said is. one of several road racing specialists hired regularly by NASCAR teams to drive in the events at Sonoma, Calif., and Watkins Glen, N.Y., the only road circuits on the Winston Cup schedule. He 'II be back at the wheel of the No. 01 MB2 Pontiac for Sunday's race at the upstate New York track, drivmg in place of Jerry Nadeau. who is recovering from injuries sustained May 2 in a brutal crash in Richmond, Va. It's the same car that Said put on the pole at Sonoma in June. then drove to a sixthplace finish. That was easily the best result in eight Eup starts for the 2002 SCCA Trans-Am Series champion, and it boosted hi s hopes of finding a fulltime stock car ride. ·But Said still has to eontend with that label of road racing specialist. ' "The big problem is that you· ve still got to go out and . ~rove you can do it ~n an · :eyal," he 5aid.

There are just tiny things that separate the winners from the losers. "In the past. it's always been that everybody is tny best friend and then. once August comes around and Watkins Glen is over, your phone never rings again," he said. "And now, I'm getting a lot more positive responses from the people I' ve been talking to." Crew chief Robin Pemberton is one person who. doesn't have to be convinced that the 40-year-old Said is a capable driver. "Boris has as much talent as anybody I' ve ever worked with," Pemberton said. "It would just take a little time. It mi¥ht not take. much time. He s a much better racer right now than he was three or four years ago when we first started really working together. "He's more knowledgeable. He 's got the ability and I hope that somebody gives him the opportunity." Pemberton said what sets Said. apart J r01;n other drivers is exceptional car control and foot work. "If you've ever seen a foot cam or . anything like that inside a car, the things that he does with the gas and the clutch and the brake pedal are second to none. ."His awareness of things around him inside the car is incredible," Pemberton added. "He can tell me different rpm 's when he comes off the corners - exactly what the rpm was - things that most drivers can· t do.

Said earned his way into the Shootout, a made-for-TV race at Daytona International Speedway in February for the previous year's pole winners, at Sonoma.

"Catfish has gotten to be a fairly mature industry and they're getting into it fairly late in the game." In tryi~ to widen its net of customers, the co-op s sights are set mainly on the North, away from what it considers the tmditional domain of catfish growers in Mississippi and the Deep South.

Officials at the Nauonal Wild Turkey Federation decided to find out. Earlier this year, federation adn)inistrators commissioned a study to develop a composite portrait of the nation's turkey-hunting enthusia.sts. Mark Damien Duda, a pollster widely respected for his wildlife-related public surveys, conducted the research . Duda 's company. Responsive Management of Harrisonburg. Va.. polled 1.413 turkey hunters by telephone. Federation CEO Rob Keck says the data will help his organization "design programs that will turther build interest in turkey hunting.'' The first thing the study showed is that most gobbler hunters spend about a week every year pursuing the pastime. The nationwide · average was 7.6 days a year. Southern hunters spent the most time. 9.3 days. and northeastem hunters the least at 5.7 days. That amount of time isn 't panicularly surprising, since the average hunter has hunted f()r 10.2 years and has a well-established interest in the sport. Again, southerners led the staiistics with an average of 12.9 years afield. In western states. where turkey hunting is still an emerging pastime, the average hunter has just six years' of experience . . . Fifty-eight percent of the hunters polled had hunted m each of the past five seasons. Only . 12 percent said their time afield had decreased. That panicular statistic should be encouraging to Turkey Federation officials. since it means that 88 percent of all respondents are maintaining or increasing their commitment to hunting . "As our hunting public grows older, it's good to know that turkey hunters are actually strengthening their commitment," Keck sa~s . Compared to hunters of other game spectes, turkey hunters are relatively young and largely self-taught. The average age is 41 years, and nearly four of every 10 respondents said they learned the sport by reading books and videos. "Thai s a significant . statistic," says researcher Duda. "II shows that turkey hunting is a powerful attraclant all by itself." Hunters of other game species generally learn to hunt by accompanying parents, relatives or friCQdS. Duda says that Simply wasn't possible in many turkey-hunting states, where huntable populations of birds have only recently been established. . "Many of these states dido 't have turkeys I0 or 20 years ago, so there was no way for today's hunters to learn from their fathers," he says. "Today 's hunters are teaching themselves the spon." That doesn't mean, however, that people are jumping from non-hunters' ranks and heading into the turkey woods. "Ninety-five percent of all our respondents had hunted for other species before they turned to turkeys," Duda says. "They 're staning with something else- mainlr small game or deer - and are working their way up to turkeys." The lure, for most sponsmen, seems to be the well-documented difficulty of trying to induce a wise old tom turkey to approach within shotgun range. . Fony-two percent of all respondents listed "the challenge" as the primary reason they hunt turkeys. Only 16 percent said they were focused on bringing home a turkey to eat. With an intangible such as challenge as their primary moti\•ator, it's not terribly surprising that most hunters are satisfied with the-turkey hunting in their home states. Forty-seven percent listed themselves as "very satisfied," and 34 percent said they were "somewhat satisfied." Only 14 percent expressed dissatisfaction, mainly because they perceived a lack of turkeys within easy driving distance. · Similarly, 78 percent of the hunters surveyed rated their state wildlife agencies' turkey management effons as "excellent" or "good." Only 19 percent rated their agencies as "fair"' or "poor.·· Keck says the federation will spend the next few months breaking down the data and devising plans to exploit the study's findings. He says it's likely that further studies will be performed in the coming months and years.

Bob Grubb of Gallipolis is now considered a professional piano tuner and has earned registered piano technician status. "I have always bi:en into music, in one form or another," Grubb said. "My oldest son John and I used- to play guitars in church when he was 12-years-old." The family group was known as the Grubb Family Singers for 20 years, he said. During that time, Grubb played the harmonica and the bass guitar, but said that the piano fascinated him the most. "I always wanted one," he said. "But we couldn't afford it, so my wife told me if I could find one for $10, I could have it." In 1976, Grubb eventually happened upon a $10 piano at Brunicardi's music store, and contacted Bill Ward, owner of Ward's Keyboard to tune it. "I asked him so many questions, he offered to teach me to tune pianos," he said. "He was the one that taught me ...... ft.: " . ...e."""'cs. . .. · G~bb began tunin~ pianos · pan-ume for Want· 'Ift 1977, doing flOQr tunings and warranty work when Ward had his store downtown. ' When Grubb retired from Hol,zer Medical Centa' in 1996, where he worired as an electronics technician, he established his own full-time business, Grubb's Piano Thning aOO Repair Service. "I became known locally as 'The Piano Doctor,"' Grubb said. "Mostly because I can do about anything with a piano - tune it, repair it, rebuild it, whatever it needs." Grubb said he had pleiny of hands-on experience, but wanted to reach a higher level of service for . his clients, so he joined the Piano Technicians Guild. which has a local chapter in Columbus. The Piano Technicians Guild, Inc .. formed in 1957, i~ the largest .non-profit orgamzauon servmg piano tuners, technicians and craftsmen throughout the world. Since piano tuning is not a licensed profession, PTG has set up voluntary standards of quality workmanship and exams that cover tuning, repairs and Qther basics of , piano knowledge . Only aftrr )XISSin!) a series of six exam<; can lllnel'S identifY them-. !lelves as a Rcgislered ~ Thner. "My last test, the Master 1\ming part. took three professional tuners a total of six hours to tune to the most perfect tuning they could do," Grubb said. "I was given one hour and 45 minutes to tune it to the same professional tuning. "I am proud to say that I can tune, both by ear, and also with the aid of an electronic tuner," he added. "I want to give my ~.ustorners .the best quality service that can be offered. By obtaining RPf status, and gel: ling my degree, I have met my own personal challenge as well. I can do anything to a piano that needs to be done. I can do it all, w=r ~~~music.

A bodly out of tune piano sets my teeth on edge, and makes me want to get it back in shape." Grubb tunes pianos for churches, individuals and even the piano for downtown Gallpolis cultural center, The french An Colony. "He travels all over," said his wife, Lou. "He covers a huge area. he · goes anywhere from Jackson toWellston to Lawrence County. Just about anywhere within an hour's drive."

Meigs County fairgoers will find the walk from the midway on the hill 10 the grandstand on !he tlal below a liule easier 10 naviga1e this year. The crooked path which winds down the sandstone cliff area overlooking the racetrack has been black· topped. That means you won'l be losing your balance when you step in a hole (they've all been filled) or if it rams you won't be slipping and sliding ever which way. You may remember thai last year a high fence was installed along the edge of the walkway to make it safer for fairgoers traveling from level to level. Remember the Glo-Ettes? They were big in baton twirling circles in Meigs and Gallia Counlies some 20 years ago and they're big in Central Ohio now. As a teenager, Gloria Buck . Wallace of Pomeroy became a champion 1wirler. Then after she married everywhere she went she organized and taughl baton and dance. She's still doing it but now with the assislance of her daughter. Natalie Wallace Parker. who also is a champion in dance and baton. Lasl weekend the Glo-Ettes won the Ohio Stale Fair championship in junior dance and twirl. While that ~up was competing al !he f3If, !he juvenile Glo-Etles were competing · al Dennison Uni;versity. They came away with the ftrSt place trophy for tap dancing and anolher for dance and twirl. They were also top winners in reeent jazz competition at Notre Dame. Addie Buck of Pomeroy. $3.75 ADMISStON Hoeflich 'Gloria's mother. was at Dennison to watch her fiveyear old grea1-granddaughter, Sara Parker - third generation of baton twirlers and dancers - perform with the juvenile team of Glo-Ettes. Sara is also the great-granddaughter of Faye Wallace of Middlepon. Natalie is a fonner instructo( for the dance drill team at Madision Groveport High School and a cheerleader for the Crew soccer team. She is now teaching at John Powers Modeling School. From beginning to end, those attending the benefil gospel concert sponsored by Trinity Church last weekend · in the Pomeroy amphitheater enjoyed the music . And they proved it by giving. A total of $710 was raised that night for God's Net. a center where disadvantaged youth can have food, fun and fellowship in a wholesome atmosphere. Of the IOta!, $51 0 was received in an offering. The remainder came from lhe musicians who donated their travel money to lhe center. With the unemployment rate standing at 13.9 percent in Meigs County, many families are finding there jusl isn't enough money 10 ~o around.

Luckily, they are in the minority. With so much new and exciting information derived from brain imaging techniques, what once were a handful of disorders and delays, have since, divided and sub-divided - much the way an embryo develops into a dizzying array of diagnoses. These diagnoses are then classified -not as the CIA would do - and used to f!Jrm treatment plans. · Many believe medicine to be an exact science - those of us playing within these walls know otherwise. This makes · for much frustration, both for those diagnosing and treating and for those who are dn the receiving end. With so nlUch information readily available to anyone with nominal computer skills, confusion becomes inevitable. Personally, I always liked my patients and their families to show interest by asking lots of questions, many of which I C:ouldn't always answer, but 'l'Ould el!gerly seek to direct to a more knowledgeable source. Egos don't belong in any profession which is designed to assist people in serious Diane Nader· Epling need. Although I've observed, on many occasions, its ugly head rearing up to bite someone who dared 9.uestion another "professional • as to the merits of his or her protocols. Heaven help the families who often feel belittled and overwhelmed with all the rhetoric around them; wanting nothing more from them than simply understanding and willingness to acknowledge that often the families know much more about the child than they do. These families have much more to lose than do the "professionals." This reminds me of the time. a few ~ears ago. when I was supeTVIsing a graduate student. Now this student was one of those who believed that one's GPA was directly linked to her abilities. And since she had one which reached the stars, then in her imagination, she was not to be toyed with. It's · graduate school, stupid! Anyway, we spent a few days leading up to her evaluation session, and I thought we had understood one another; I mean with her GPA and all, what could she have possibly missed?! Apparently, her long-term memory had turned to mush - that or her ego was wound around too tight. I chose to believe the latter. · The day had arrived. Miss GPA entered the evaluation room ready to interview the very young mother of a child who was obviously distressed. I watched on a monitor down the hall, figuring that the session would go smoothly and without incident. My husband and I had been up all night with the twins. and all I wished to do was drink my coffee in peace. AP.farentl~. my genie was sui sleepmg. What ensued was an abject lesson in how NOT to behave in the presence of someone who bravely sought the assistance of "professionals." I watched, in amazement, how Miss GPA, only a couple a years older than the mother. with nary one-tenth of responsibilities or maturity as this young mother possessed, rip into her with a condescending attitude spewing forth techno-babble that only served to drive this mother away from our help. Quickly. I reached the room to "take over'' and try to assuage the assaulted mother that her seeking help was a wonderful thing to have done. In the end, we lost her. She never returned to the clinic. This is what ego can do. Thankfully, acquiring support is only a click away. The internet has provided volumes of information to lead anyone to the appropriate resources. both on and off-line. Any of the national book chains have websites which will direct you to the most updated books on this topic. From there, you can request local libraries to help you obtain these books. Then, if any of these books prove valuable, you can go ahead and purchase them. Here are only some of the many books out there: "What's Wrong With Timmy?" by Maria Shriver; "Finding a Friend" by Zilpha M. Booth; "Be Good to Eddie Lee" hy Virginia Fleming-all books dealing with Down's Syndrome; "Ian's Walk : A Story About Autism" by Laurie Lears; "My Brother Sammy" by Becky Edwardsbooks about autism; and "My Brother Matthew" - a book about brain injury by Mary Thompson. Two books which are standouts : "View from Our Shoes: Growing up with a Brother or Sister with Special Needs" by Donald Joseph Meyer and "A Will of His Own" by Kelly Harland are both from the families· perspectives - how they cope and develop positive outlooks. These books will enlighten even the most "professional" of readers and help to allay some of the myths about the owners of disabilities. Next week, we'lllook at the myths about teaching reading. Keep reading. William Trevor 's "The Story of Lucy Gault," tells of a Protestant family Wiven from their beloved home in rural Ireland along the coast in 1921. In the opening scene the father. Captain Everand Gault, shoots one of the boys attempting to burn down their house. The young man is injured in the shoulder, and Gaults fear for their lives. The mother is English, which adds to the problem. They have a daughter, eightyear-old Lucy, who loves the old house, the beach, the nearby woods. the cones and shells she gathers. On the eve of the move to England, Lucy runs away. Some of her clothing ts found on the beach, and the family presumes she has drowned.

The young man who was shot by her father is wracked with guilt and nightmares. The story is beautifully written and calm and quieting. There is grief and caring and redemption.

Director and ·co-writer James Ivory and producer I~m<dl Merchant, best known for their stuffy, flawlessly appointed period pieces, offer their take on the French farce with "Le Divorce." :The film is a blast with a glorious cast - even though it loses its way a bit toward Uie end. Based on the novel by Diane Johnson, "Le Divorce" stars Kate Hudson and Naomi Watts as Isabel and Roxeanne, American sisters in Paris. Equally gorgeous and blond, with a seemingly genuine affection for each other, it's easy to believe they 're siblings. Roxy is a poet, wife and ruother with a second baby on the way. Isabel has flown in from California to visit her older sister' - just as Roxy's F.rench artist husband, <:harles-Henri (Melvil Poupaud), is leaving to be with another woman. ' Isabel tries to support her sister, especially as Roxy wrestles with divorce laws tliat favor the French. A paintiilg Roxy brought with her to Paris, which may be worth millil)ns of dollars, becomes a key source of conflict. · But Isabel ends up havin~ a dalliance of her own wtth Edgar (Thierry Lhermitte ), a French diplomat who's much older, married with twins and just happens to be ~harles-Henri 's uncle. It's easy to see why she'd tie attracted to Edgar; hi s iiuellect and sopl!istication make him eminently sexy. And he has impeccable taste; a red crocodile Hermes purse he sends her at the beginning of their relationship becomes a scarlet symbol that older women recognize throughout the film, including CharlesHenri's wealthy, controlling mother (a perfectly cast Leslie Caron). , Isabel's affair inspires her transformation from innocent California girl to intemation'al fashionista, and it's a joy to watch. Hudson has a fabu·lous figure and can wear anything, and as in the best Merchant Ivory .films - "A Room With a View," ''The Remains · of the Day," "Howards End" -. clothes are crucial here, too. Her affair, and CharlesHenri's, also cause the sisters to question their American sense of idealism while immersed in French culture. Spending time with Olivia (Glenn Close), a writer and American e11:pat, further opens Isabel's eyes to how sheltered she'd been back in Santa Bar~ara with herJ'arents (Sam Waterston an Stockard Channing, who play a subtler version of the ugly American). , The <:ultural clashes in "Le Divorce" couldn't be mon; timely, given France's vocal opposition to the Americanled war in Iraq.

' Sunday, August 10, 2003 Chrysler·keeps the fun in the sizable Sebring - America's favorite convertible One sure way to get the most out of these waning days of summer: Drive America's most popular convenible. Chrysler's Sebring retains its top-down fun and honestto-goodness seating for four. Its class-leading 11.7-cubicfoot trunk is there, ready for two sets of golf clubs, too. Now, for the 2004 model year, the Sebring two-door soft top also has revised front appearance, new. stylish wheels and a realigned model lineup. As it has for nearly all of the past six years, Sebring last year bested all other new convenibles in the United States. Sales in calendar 2002 totaled . 43,809, . company spokesman Bryan Zvibleman said. He added that Sebring holds a 12 percent share of the U.S. convenible niarket. It's a commendable showing for a vehicle which debuted originlllly in spring 1996 as one of the few convenibles on the market that can carry more than two people and more than just a suitcase or two. In 2004, the Sebring convertible remains affordable, with staning manufacturer's suggested retail price, including destination chwge, of $25,435 for the base 2004 model. This is up, however, from $24,670 for a base 2003 Sebring convenible and higher than the $24,080 starting price for a 2004 Ford Mustang. Note the Sebring base price is for a four-cylinder model with automatic transmission, while the base Mustang comes with a standard V6 and manual transmission. Another four-seat convertible on the market, the 2003 \blkswagen New Beetle, has a starting MSRP, including destination charge, of $21,025. This is for a four<ylinder model with \ manual transmission that qualif~, ... fies as the lowest-JXiced convertible sold in the United States. The 2004 Seaing is larger in overall dimensioos than either the Mustang oc New Beetle artd is classified by the Environmental Protection Agrg:y a<; a compact - a larger calegOI)' than the Mustang and Beetle. Riders get the benefit of Sebring's 193.7-inch length and I06-inch wheelbase when interior space is factored in with the s1zable trunk space. Front-seat legroom of 42.4 inches is near! y as much as the 42.6 inches in the Mustang and more than the 39.4 inches in the New Beetle.

They live in Vmton tending their roses, perennials and taking care oftheir1ittle dog, Rosie.

CLASSIFIED many services for area residents In spite of the fact that the Gallia County Health Department's (GCHD) beginnings can be traced back to January of 1920. we still meet county residents every week who are unaware of our existence. We offer an array of services that include Environmental, Nursing, Vital Statistics, and WIC. With the exception of BCMH and WIC, our services are available to all county residents regardless of their income. The office is open Monday thru Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., with some additional evening hours available each month. I will admit that until I started working here 10 years ago, I was not familiar with the services offered. Like many residents, I knew that the Health Department was where I needed to go for TB skin te.sting. That was about the extent of my knowledge. When I began my em~loy­ ment with the organizauon I realized that the Health Department offered so much more! It really is a hidden jewel in the community. I ·would like to take this opportunity to make you aware of some of the other nursing services we offer. Let me start with a little background information. The Health Department is a public health agency whose purpose is to promote the health of the people and to prevent or control disease through its numerous services. (That is our mission statement) Our goals are to identify potential problems and help correct them before they become severe and to prevent possible handicapping conditions by early detection and treatment. Funding to operate the Health Department comes from several sources. These include: a .5 mil tax levy, state subsidies (minimal), donations, and fees for services. State and federal grant funds are also sought by the staff to provide additional services to county residents. As I mentioned earlier, there are four departments offering services to the public: Environmental, Nursing, Vital Statistics, and WIC. Each department is responsible for performing services mandated by the Ohio Revised Code. Many services mandated by the State of Ohio are not funded by the state and counties must assume the cost of the program's in their existing bud-· gets. As you may imagine, this can put a strain on a bud-, get. As staffing and funds allow, many additional services (not mandated) are made available to the public. The Nursing Department makes numerous services available to the public on a daily basis. Registered nurses are available to screen blood pressures and blood su~ar, and to administer immumzaand tnjections . . lions Cholesterol scret:nings are scheduled two times a year. Nurses consult with the county residents on a variety of health"related topics such as communicable dtsease, sexually transmitted disease, pregnancy and pediculosis. Nurses are also available to make health-related l?resentations in the commumty. The immunization program is one of the most essential programs in health promotion . and the prevention·of illness. Most vaccines are administered to Ohio residents at no out of pocket expense. These include all routine childhood vaccinations as well as some adult vaccines. Additional ' ,< ~ ' Proud to be apartof.: your life. ··':' ·:•· Subscribe tOday ,446-2342 • 992-2156 vaccines. such as Hepatitis A & B. pneumococcal. typhoid and yellow fever, are purchased by the health depart: ' ment and are administered for the cost of the vaccine plus a nominal administration fee. Throughout the year, the Ohio Department of Health sponsors several pediatric clinics for cardiac, plastic, and vision at the health department. Board-certified physicians and specialists examine Ohio children aged 0 tllrou¥h 20 years of age at these chnics and make referrals for further diagnosis and/or treatment. The nursing staff assists with the provision of some health services to the local schools. Athletic physicals. immunization clinics, and TB skin testing are a few of the offerings. At the request of the schools, our staff has made classroom presentations about hand washing and tobacco use prevention. The control of communicable diseases, including tuberculosis. is a responsibility of the GCHD. Ohio law requires that physicians and laboratories repon cenain diseases to the health department within 24 hours of confirmation or suspected diagnosis. 9CHD nurses report the disease to the Ohio Department of Health and then conduct further investigation and followup, as indicated. The Health Department maintains an aggressive TB control pro- gram that consists of skin testing. education, and a Chest Clinic. The Bureau for Children with Medical Handicaps (BCMH) is a state program administered by the Health Department . The program offers services to .children with special health care needs and their families. Eligibility is based on medical diagnosis and financial income. Grant programs currently offered by the Health Department include: the Cardiovascular Risk Reductic:m Grant, the Child & Family Health Services Grant (prenatal clinic), Newborn Home Visiting Progmm, the Immunization Action Plan Grant. the Public Health hifrastructure. Grant, and the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program. As you can see, we offer much more than you may be are aware of and we are readily available Monday through Friday to serve you. We have a wealth of health-related information at our disposal that we will gladly provide at your request. If you haven't had the chance to stop by and take advantage of our services, J?lease do so. We are convemently located in the Gallia County Service Center at 499 Jackson Pike, Suite D. For more information, please call us at (740) 441-2018.

QCribune Sentinel Place Your SUNDAY.PUZZLER boubriort When a good workout takes your breath away It starts with coughing. wheezing or a tight sensation in the chest. while you're on the treadmill or perhaps while weightlifting. .It f~ls like the room ts ·ciosmg m on you. While this sudden episode sounds like a heart attack or that you are just out of shape, medtcal researchers are exan1ining another cause - ExerciseInduced Asthma (EIA). According to the American Council on Exercise (ACE). which is tracking the new phenomenon, 20 percent of competitive athletes and up to 90 percent of asthma sufferers have experienced this common but serious condition. Testing is the only way that you can be sure that you have EIA. Coqsult your physician if you suffer from any of these symptoms: · • Difficulty breathing six to eight miiUites after a workout. • Coughi-ng or wheezing during physical activity. . • A feeJin·g of lightness m the chest. • Excessive fatigue or shortness of breath after exercising. Before you hop , off the treadmill for good, know that science is learning more about EIA and how you can control it. The ACE has found that while the condition can prevent some people from getting vigorous exercise, most people can still work out. Your doctor can inform you of your options, including a treatment plan that may include a fast-acting inhaler, says Cedric Bryant, a chief exercise physiologist and Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis, OH • · Pt.

Pennsylvania. to compete in baseball's most c harming event : the Little League World Series. The brainchild of Wi Ilium sport resident Curl E. Stotz. Little · League's first season in 1939 was played in a vacant lot and included three teams sponsored begrudgingly by local businesses. (In 19S6. Stotz severed ties with the organization after an out-of-coun settlement with the Little League Board of Directors, according to the otliciul Liule League Web site.) The world series began in 1947, eig ht years after the fli'St Little League game, and was initially called the National Liule League Tournamenl. The Maynard Midgets took the first championship. Many Little Leaguers have made it to the Big Leagues. Allen "Sonny" Yearick. who played in the tirst Linle League game in 1939. was signed to the Boston Braves and became the first "graduate" to play professionally. He would not be the last professional athlete 10 hone hi s skills on the kiddie teams. Billy Hunter, who played football for the Washington Redskins and Miami Dolphins, played for the Delaware Township, New Jersey, team in the 1955 Linle League World Series ; future Major League Buseball player Charlie Hayes was on the Halliesburg, Mississippi. team in the 1977 series; and former Met and Yan~ee Dwighl Gooden played with an array of future professionals on the 1979 Belmont Heights • Aorida. team featured in the Senior League World Series (a part of Lillie League for young adults) in Gary.-Indiana. Today, 360,000 c hildren participate in Lillie League. which is played on 12,000 tields in every U.S. state, Canada and on six continents, according to "Play Bull! The Story of Little League Baseba ll" (Penn State University), by Lance and Robin Van Auken. Although he never made it ro n World Series, even President George W. Bush spent four years as u catcher for the Cubs in the Central. Lillie League of Midland, Teus, and his father, the first President Bush, couched a Lillie League team. About 40.000 people will allcnd the Lillie League World Series this year, and another 10 million will watch it -on · television. Little League has become a true childhood rite of - passage.

The infonnation below was found on the Internet from the Lyme Disease FOwxlation at hnp:J/www.lyme.org/ticlcslremo val.html. Tick's mouthparts have reverse harpoon-like barbs, designed to penetrate and attach to skin. licks secrete a cementlik bstance thai bel the e su ps m adhere finnly to the host. If you find that a tick has bitten you or your pet, it is important to remove it pi'Qperly. Tick Removal Procedure (I) Use fine-point tweezers to grasp the tick at the place of attachment, as close to the skin as possible. ( 2) Gently pull the tick straight out. ( 3) Place the tick in a small vial labeled with the victim's name, address and the date. (4) Wash your hands, disinfeet ihe tweezers and bite site. (5) Mark your calendar with the victim's name. place of tick attachment on the body. and general health at the time. (6) Call your doctor to determine if treatment is warmnted. (7) Watch the tick-bite site and your general health for signs or symptoms of a tick· borne illness. Make sure you mark any changes in your health status on your calendar. (8) If needed, the health department can send ticks to the Ohio Department of Health Lab for identificalion/testing. If the mouthparts break off in the skin - should I dig them out? There are two opinions about this. Palmer fits ·in with I Benga,s' reputation, Bt Meigs Connty Fair, A6 Opening ceremonies New ride at fair Zane Beegle h · · 0 ne vtewpomt states t at the mouthparts can cause a secondary infection, and should be removed as if it was a splinter.

He instructs his families to leave the mouthd th the ·u parts. an at Y Wt come out on their own as the skin sloughs off Cautions , Children should be tau~ht to seek adult help for uck removal. , If yqu must remove the tick with your fingers; use a tissue or leaf to avoid contact with infected tick fluids. • Do not prick, crush or bum the tick as it may release infected fluids or tissue. • Do not try to smother the . tick (e.g. petroleum jelly, nail polish) as the tick has enough oxygen to complete the feeding.
