(AP) A bankruptcy judge allowed Special Met;~s Corp. to terminate its five pension plans Friday, removing another obstacle on the bankrupt company's path toward solvency. Retirees from Special Metals or !nco Alloys International, the company's predecessor, will see their pensions taken over - and, tor rmmy; sharply reduced - by the federal Pension Benefit Guaranty Corp., the government's pension protection plan. Current employees would be covered by a new plan when they retire.

"I just knew him as Brian," said Dale Brownfield, who said Samples had a rent-toown agreement on the new house in East Rochester, Ohio, 32 miles southwest of Youngstown. Brownfield and his wife - who had invited the man and his son to Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners and allowed their grandchildren to sleep over - came home to television news trucks Friday, hours after the FBI and local officials arrested the 40-year-old Samples.

State Blackwell wants to repeal tax increase COLUMBUS (AP) Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell on Friday proposed a repeal of a pennyper-dollar sales tax increase the Legislature approved last spring and will try to take the idea to voters next year if lawmakers don't approve it. Gov. Bob Taft's office and Ohio Republican Party Chairman Robert Bennett ·immediately condemned the plan. Blackwell was not available to respond, a spokesman said. Blackwell, in his second term as Ohio's chief elections officer, said in a statement that the repeal would "set in motion a new course for Ohio that will change the way state government does business." Bla:kwell said he would tty to collect the 96,870 signatures he needs to put the issue on the November 2004 lxtllot, then ~ oeed if the Legislatw'e does not repeal the tax. The nwnber represents 3penl!nt of the total votes ca<;t in the 2002 election for govermr. The increase took the state .sales tax from 5 cents to 6 · cents a dollar. It is set to expire on June 30, 2005. ·However, some lawmakers worry it will be allowed to become permanent. Tux ofl'icials project the tax will raise $2.5 billion over two years. Blackwell said Ohioans are losing their jobs and it's no time to raise taxes. He said the state has enough resources without the increase. "We are going to impose fiscal discipline that puts hardworking Ohioans ahead of the gaping, cavernous mouth of state government," Blackwell said in the statement. Taft would work against the repeal because the money is needed for schools and other programs•. spokesman Orest Holubec said. "Governor Taft believes this is a reckless and irresponsible ploy that places our children and seniors at risk," Holubec said. Bennett was more blunt toward his fellow Repuhlican. "Our party has a responsibility to support its elected leaders during these difficult times, not publicly stab them in the back for political expedience," Bennett said. Blackwell's proposal is meant to attract attention to a '"'1!~-~~.o~oer 4, lOOJ Coming Thursday PROUD TO BE APART OFYOUR LIFE.

Blackwell balked at supporting a 1995 effort by Pullins to put on the ballot an issue that would have required a twothirds majority of the · Legislature to pass a tax increase, Pullins said. "We think the Blackwell thing is a gimmick to try to get him elected," Pullins said. Blackwell has acknowledged he is considering a run for governor. Hi s spokesman, Gene Pierce, declined to comment on Pullins' assertion and said Blackwell would speak on the subject next week. Blackwell has an ally in Republican state Sen. Jim Jordan of Urbana. Jordan. one of the Legislature's strongest tax foes, said he would work for the repeal. Last spring, Jordan and other conservatives put together their own budget that did not raise taxes. The effort failed . "We need to let families and businesses keep more of their money and Ken's proposal is a step in the right direction," Jordan said . .... y .. ~- ~ .. . .. . . . . ' ' . .

READER'S · VIEW God's rules Homosexuality contrary to Gods laws : Dear Editor: : Sorry, God, but you're not needed. We've decided to do things our way. Makes us more comfortable, you see. Besides, you're a loving god, so you won't really punish anyone, right? . Okay, so none of the religious people today have come right out to say this, but from their actions and attitudes, this Is what they seem .to say. : This country was built on Christian principles, but these are now considered "outdated." Some people say we've got to "get modern" and "change with the times, that the Bible is no longer relevant." Satan tells a good lie! Don't believe it. Some people say that Adam and Eve stuff was okay at the time, but lifestyles have changed. It's Larry and Gary, Sue and Lou now. (Doesn't matter that God destroyed Sodom and Gomcirrah because of homosexuality ... or that all through the Bible, Galatians 5:19-21 for example, it's listed under sins.) A gay priest recently said homosexuals were made by God ~o he loves them so well. Wrong! Don't blame God! It's a ~hoice that people make. Just because some person says that doesn' t make it true. Stop and think. , · God does love all people, but he expects them to follow his rules. Why else would he have given us a rule book (Bible) to follow? And that rule book calls homosexuality a sin. So why do some denominations allow gays to fill church offices and become priests? Do they fear people more than God? : Ansi then we read of churches having conventions to determine what their doctrine will be. We read of manuals of doctrine that change from time to time, while others follow traditions. Don't they use their Bibles? Isn' t God's word good enough for them? Will God judge us according to doctrines set by man? I think not! . 1t seems to me that many people are thumbing their noses at God, so to speak, and declaring they' I! do as they please. God is forgotten in favor of more pleasing ways. It seems that God is no longer needed. The Bible is a relic of the past. Wake up, America, before it's too late' In a world filled with immorality and disregard for life, it is evident that we are headed in the wrong direction. Dust off your Bibles and turn back to God and his ways, for his words shall judge all people some day (John 12:48-50). 1uan ita Wood AROUND TOWN Sunday, September 14,2003 Testing ItS the wa~ stupid For a country smack in the middle of World War Ill we certainly are a blase bunch . We're worried about how much fightin g the people who want to kill us will cost and whether we have an "exit strategy" in Iraq. Craven politicians and crazed columnists are second .guessing President . Bush, who, at times, look s like he's tirst guessing the nation's forei gn policy. Since Mr. Bush, for some inexplicable reason. will not spell it out for you, it falls on me to do so. There are around the world thousands of Islamic fanatics who want to kill Americans because they believe Allah is down with that. These people are taught from the time they , are children that Jews and Americans are undeserving of life on this planet. There is no negotiation with the most of these zealots; there is nothing one can say to dissuade them . They want blood, and they will use any and all means to get it. A number uf nations help these killers and allow the murderous anti-American indoctrination to continue generation after generation . Iran. Indonesia, Syria arid Saudi Arabia are the most threatening to us, although the Saudis do have some proAmerican government officials like Prince Bandar, it s ambassador to the United States. Iraq used to be a terrorist enabler primarily by Bill O'Reilly helpin g the homicide bombers kill civilian s in IsraeL but Saddam Hussein was open to causing trouble for the USA however he COlild . The Islamic killers thrive on the P<1lestinian situation . As long os the Palestinians are denied a state of their own. the propaganda machine that demonizes Israel and America will roll along unchallenged in the Arab world . So the only way to break down the hatred many Arabs have toward us is to forge a P<ilestinian lsraeli peace agreement that both sides can live with. In order for Israel to cooperate in thi s effort fully. it needs to feel sec ure. Havin~ the Americans in Iraq helps that effort. Also, the USA needs a democratic outpost in the Middle East to put pressure on the terrorist states of Iran and Syria. A foothold in that region makes it infinitely more difficult for AI Qaeda to carry out its evil doing. Just the huge CIA presence in Iraq alone gives the USA ~~ major advantage in learnin g about terrorist operation s before they hurt we the people. This nonse nse about the United Nations rescuing America in Iraq is something Ae sop would have published . The U.N. is a chaotic chamher with no sense of urgency about terrorism and no sympathy toward the USA. Now some of that antipathy might be justified, but not when American li ves are at stake. In a perfect world, all countries that aid and abet terrorism would be isolated and embargoed. But this is far from a perfect world. The failure of France. Germany, Russia and China t(). ~ggressively help America n!iu~ralize terror states is an outrage of historic proportions. France is the worst. The Ghirac government lied to . Secretary of State Colin Powell about enforcing the U.N. resolution dem anding Saddam cooperate with the weapons inspectors. Then France actively undermined both the war and the occupation. President Bush should level with the American people about the duplicity of France and. to a lesser ex tent, Germany. l know this would cause an uproar, but whm the French have done to hurt America and Israel is unconscionable. At the same time, the Bush administration must begin earnestly persuading nations that are not overtly hostile to us that we don't want to dominate the world, we want to make it safe for everyone. Finally. World War III is unlike any war in history, and mistakes will be made in the fighting of it. The Bush administration has the correct global view regarding terrorism but poor communicati ons skills both within the country and abroad. The sad truth is that most people don 't even know that World War lli is underway and have little understanding of the . strategies and stakes . But believe me. you and your family are in danger. We must stop the partisan bickering and acknowledge that brainwashed fanatics have us in their sights. And this time there's no Geneva Convention and no limi Is on deadly weaponry. This time there is no "exit strategy." It's us or them. (Veteran TV news anchor Bill O 'Reilly is host of the Fox News show "The O'Reillv Factor" and aruhor ol the 1iew book "The No Spin Zone.

The achievement tests are much more comprehensive than learner outcomes . The achievement tests are geared toward what the students should have learned . She said much more research has gone into the achievement tests than what went into the proficiency test system. The achievement tests are based on curriculum and standards taught in classrooms across the state. She said, for example, the thirdgrade reading test measure what the students should know and be able to do by the end of their third-grade year. The new ESEA standands require states to test all students .in third through eighth grades in reading and math. Students in grades nine through 12 will also be required to be tested once in reading and math. By the 2007-08 school year, states must also give science tests once in grades three through 12. The ESEA standards also require a baseline group for measuring student scores. Ohio This year the .

In the past, plant stocks were pruned by hand, a time-consuming process that employed four or five laborers. Th'Cn a clever employee converted a lawn mower into a pruning machine. Excess branches, and excess jobs, were lopped off with equal efficiency. This was good news for the owners of the nursery, who cut costs; for the customers. who paid lower prices: and for the operator of the pruning machine. who got a bigger paycheck . It was bad new s for the other workers, who lost their incomes entirely. That nursery tells the story of the American economy. While the last ·recession offi cially ended almost two years ago, few new jobs are being created. Quite the opposite, in fact -- many companies are producing more while reducing their work force . Jn tJle second quarter of this )lear, productivity grew at an annual rate of 6.8 percent, an astounding figure that foreshadows rising profits and wages in the months ahead. But here's the catch: ' the economy has lost almost 3 mill ion jobs since George W. Bush took office, and four out of five of them are not coming back, according to a new report published by the Federal Cokie and Steven Roberts Reserve Bank of New York. "The losses are permanent. " says the report. "Industri es eliminate jobs, forcing workers to seek new employment in other industries and sectors." Sung Won Sohn, chief economi st at Wells Fargo Banks in Minneapolis, adds. "The old idea that "u certain amount of economic growth means jobs is out the window. We are talking about a whole different picture, and there's no quick lix. " The management consultant in Los Angeles is full of anecdotes · that confirm thi s finding. ·One of his clients. a leather importer. can now view foreign-produced goods online , even in three-dimensional images. Buyers who used to make the costly trek to Asia have been laid off. Another client sends out sales reps with handheld devices that transmit orders back to headquarters instantaneously. The result is greate r efficiency, and fewer jobs in warehousing and shippins. So how is the Bush admmis- tration dealing with this trend' l n a word: badly. To be sure ~ there are no quick lixes. and the president is certainly not responsible for the powe1ful currents running throu gh the economy. But, as the Federal Reserve study notes. "an unusually high shme of tmemploycd workers mu st now find new positions." And the public senses the truth: this administration is doing little to help them. In the latest Time/CNN poll, the president's job-approval rating is down to 52 percent, hi s lowest in two years. Only two in live Americans say the country is headed in the right direction. with the same numbertelling pollster John Zogby that Bush deserves re-election. This declining confrdence reflects rising doubts about the president's economic strategy. Bush's first instinct is to blame all his problems on outside forces: Bill Clinton, the events of 9/11 , the war in Iraq. His second instinct is to offer cosmetic solutions: a national cheerleading tour, a new offic.al in the Commerce Department charged with reversing the irreversible decline in manufacturing jobs. When it moves from public relations to real policy, the administration's record is even worse. Its protectionist cave-in to the steel industry, designed to court union workers in key industrial states, is universally recogniled as a failure. This action drove up the price of steel for American companies that make everything from cars to dishwashers, and 1wound up costing more jobs than it preserved. The president's enormous tax-cutting schemes have been a useful short-term stimulus· to economic activity. But in the long run, they could produce huge deficits that drive up interest rates and suffocate growth. Tgen there is Iraq. The president's request for a staggering $87 btllion to police and rebuild that country -- a request that will only begin to cover the total cost -- comes at a time when this year's budset shortfall is already soanng past $500 billion . As a result, the government is sorely strapped for cash . And what. of the workers whose old jobs are gone for good? Even if there are no quick fixes around, economi sts agree that some innovations would help ease their painful transition: longer unemployment benefits, better health care coverage , more retraining and relocation programs. . But Bush ,has set his priorlites. If you re a construction worker in Baghdad, you're m great shape. If you just ~ost your job pruning plants m a Los Angeles nursery, tough luck.

Rebel turnovers costly in loss to Symmes Valley BY BRAD SHERMAN sports@mydailytribune.com MERCERVILLE - South Gallia knew it could ill afford to make any mistakes against a solid Symmes Valley team on Friday night at Rebel Field- it made five costly ones. The Rebels fumbled the ball away twice on their first three plays from scrimmage and had five total turnovers in a 26-8 loss to the Vikings. "You cannot make mistakes in big ball games," said South Gallia coach Justy Burleson. "Everybody has to han~ on to the ball and make good dec1sions ."

Burleson said he wanted his team to get off to a fast start against the SOC-I power, and hoP,efully let emotion carry his team. ' I thought if we could get rolling on offense, we would be all right," he said. "We did gain yardage at various times through the game and then we just shoot ourselves in the foot.

"We need to eliminate those types of mistakes against a good team like Symmes Valley." Symmes Valley junior halfback Cory Burcham, who rushed for a game-high 181 yards on 22 attempts, capped off a nine play, 60yard opening touchdown drive with a four yard run off tackle. South Gallia did get a good push and the point after kick was blocked by Zeph Clary. · Following the first Rebel fumble on the ensuin~ possession, the Vikes capitalized wllh a 46-yard march to the end zone, going the entire way on the ground for the second straight drive. A one yard dive by Derek Carpenter and subsequent two-point conversion run by Burcham gave the visitors a 14-0 edge. . "They ran off tackJe on us quite a bit all night. We have two good ends and I think they are doing their job, we just need to get stronger in the (defensive tackJe) position, we have to get lower,"~xplained Burleson. As a team, SVHS rushed for 332 yards on 52 carries for a solid 6.3 yards per carry average. The Vikings also scored once through the air.

James offers support to close friend Clarett CLEVELAND (AP) LeBron James has just one wish for his close friend, troubled Ohio State running back Maurice Clarett. · ''For him to get back on the .field," the Cleveland Cavali!lrs rookie said, "and not for anybody else but for himself. Because he' loves to play." James slowed downtown traffic, members of the visiting Minnesota Twins and office workers on their lunch hour Friday while shooting a television commercial for the Cavaliers at Public Square. After arriving on the' set, James, who has known Clarett for a few yem:s, discussed his friend 's plight. Earlier this week, the Buckeyes' star was suspended for the season for violatinll NCAA rules. The school S31d Clarett accepted thousands of dollars in improper benefits and lied to investigators. James, perhaps more than anyone, can appreciate Clarett's predicament. During his senior year at Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary High School, James was stripped of.his eligibility and suspended for the season by state high school officials for accepting two "throwback" sports jerseys as gifts. James was also investiga~=,_ ed for receiVing a lavish spans utility vehicle as. a birthday gift from his mother. He fought the seasonlong Suspension in court and had it reduced to two games. He can feel Clarett's pain. "Maurice is a great· friend of mine," he said. "I just want to show my support to him as much as I can with him being in a tough situation. He loves football just like I love the game of basketball." fverybodys 1n Las Vegas! . 2002 Camero 2001 Chevy !:10 T.To~' htended Cab W&tch Saturdays at 7:10p.m. V1!it your WestVir&inla l ottery RM~iler and find o ut how you ~ an be a game show contestant and win up to ~ $1,000,0001 On;airWV contestant- Sherry He,nsley.•.........

Bryant, who faces a sexual assault charge from a 19-yearold Colorado woman, underwent surgery on his right shoulder in .

The good news for hunters is that deer PQpulations in those areas appear to be bounding back, with, some people reporting seeing just as many deer as they did before last fall. Approximately I 00 deer may have been affected by the EHD outbreak in Brown and Clermont counties, and now wildlife officials believe cases occurred in Ohio in Greene Couniy in 1997 and in Muskingum County in 1980.

With West Virginia's mourning dovehunting season under way, sportsmen are getting a chance to contnbute to a scientitlc study of the fast-flying little birds. Seven hundred doves carry bands placed on their legs by Division of Natural Resources researchers. Hunters who kill banded birds can contribute to a nationwide study of the species by rePQrtin~ their kills to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. "We're in the first. year of a threeyear ~roject," says Steve Wilson, the DNR ·s migratory bird specialist "A total of 26 states are participating, from the East Coast. to the West Coast." Federal officials called for the study when researchers began noticing a long-tenm decline in dove numbers. "Something needed to be done,'' Wilson says. "So people fro!ll the three regional dove management units got together and decided on the type of research that was needed to figure out what was causing the decline." . Biologists determined that young doves' survival rates and huntingseason harvest rates would be the two most productive factors to study. "So that's what this current study is geared to do," Wilson says. Even though dove hunting isn't wildly popular in West Virginia. DNR offictals decided to participate in the project because they had never amassed much research data on the species. "This was an opp<>nunity to get at least a little data,' Wilson says. So up until re<;ently, DNR biologists throughout the state have been setting out wire-mesh traps baited with millet, a dove delicacy. The traps were 2 feet square, . 8 inches high, with two funnel-like pons in one side. Doves entered the traps through the funnels but usually were unable to.retrace th~ir steps to escape. "It was a very effective way to catch the birds,' Wilson says. "At some bait sites, we caught up to 50 doves at once." Most of the traps were set . near agricultural fields, a favorite dove hangout. But Wilson says biologists also did some trapping in unconventiona! locations. "A lot of the Nonhem Panhandle's quota of I00 birds came from bait sites near shopping malls,'' he says. "Doves are attracted to bare ground, and there are a lot of new malls being built up there." A few doves even came from peapie's back yards. "They were used to coming into people's feeders, so. we just took advantage of that," W1Ison says. Before they banded each dove, researchers noted the bird's sex, its age and the stage of molt it happened to be in. Other recorded data included the trap's location, the date and the identification number on the bird's on to the project's Web site, band . · www.pwrc.usgs.gov.

Luck.i1:t for the reigning AFC champions, their home opener is against a team , that hasn't found a resolution to its troubles despite trying for 12 years. It would seem that beating Cincinnati should be a cinch for OakJand. The Bengals (0-1 l have the NFL's worst record since 1991 and haven't had .a winning season since 1990. They've never won in OakJand, going 0-8. In fact, they're 1-11 aU-time against the Raiders on the West Coast, the only win coming in 1988 when the Raiders were still in Los Angeles. And the Bengals lost their ·opener 30-10 to Denver iii the debut of new Cincinnati coach Marvin Lewis, who outfitted the Bengals in all-black uniforms. "Nowadays in this league, anything can happen," Raiders offensive lineman Mo Collins said. "You take somebody lightly and it can come back and bite you. We're not in a position to take anybody lightly right now." . _Th1s week, Ra1ders c.oach B1ll Callahan d1scussed bas1c listening skills with his players . - anything to somehow ~et them to cut down on the m1scues. Penalties plagued the Raiders last season, and _they didn 't look much better m thelf season-opening 25-20 loss at Tennessee with seven false starts and 17 flags in all. The entire team spent Monday in a special teams meeting, a session quarterback Rich Gannon deemed successful. Time will tell. He threw two interceptions, fumbled twice and was sacked four times. He threw a shovel paSs that was picked off and returned 12 yards for the clinching TD early in the third quarter, angering fans desperate for a turnaround season under Lewis. Still, Kitna will get the call again Sunday in one of the toughest atmospheres in football, "There's no place like it in the league," said Kitna, who made his first NFL start at OakJand in 1997 while playing for Seattle. "The fans take pride in just being as crazy as they can and as rowdy as they can. They're there five hours before the game and a couple of hours after the game. "You have to go out there and just experience it, ~o out in pregame and see what It is, and come back in and get yourself refocused and ready to go." These .teams haven't faced each other si nee the Raiders beat the Bengals 27-10 five years ago in Oakland. Kitna hasn ·t played the Raiders since joining the Bengals, but faced Oakland five times while with Seattle from 1997-2000. The Raiders probably will be without receiver Jerry Porter, their deep threat who has a strained stomach muscle and flew to Rorida on Wednesday to get a second opinion. So OakJand will be trying out several of its younger players to fill out the receiving corps. · In addition, Raiders safety Rod Woodson underwent surgery Tuesday night to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee. The Raiders aren 't sure when he'll return. "You can't overlook any team, especially in September," Raiders receiver Tim Brown said. "In December, maybe a little bit, when a team is coming in here 2-12 or something."

I would rather sit and watch golf on TV than sit in a special teams meeting. I'd rather watch ice cubes melt. An extn1 hour meeting to watch me block for four field goals was a little much." Perhaps that was Callahan's motivauon tactic. He is starting his second season with many of the same faces that made his flfSt year such a success. · "Listening skills obviously are imponant. and the co~u ­ nication." Callahan sa1d. "There's all types of avenues that we've researched and that we work on to eliminate the false starts and the noise." The noise Sunday will certainly be more bothersome for the Bengals.

ON THE BOOKSHELF Kids review book for kids reality and·a . ~ bit of the supematural •• 6unba~ ;tme~ ·itntintl Last week, we brietly met some really neat kids who shared some of their favorite series books. Well, they're back! The School bell has rung and children everywhere are busying themselves. with all kinds of learning activities. Somewhere among the math drill s, spelling tests, and countless other required lessons lay a place where kids of all ages can escape, if only for a little while. I thought I would share with you a few book reviews from children who have not allowed busy "school work" to interfere with their need for engaging in a more creative and intellectual outlet, which real books provide. Alexandra Hapka, age 8, provides this very witty review. In Louis Sachar's book, 'Holes,' a boy named Stanley Yelnats (notice anything funny about his last name ... ?) is accu sed of stealing shoes that a famou s basketball player donated to a homeless shelter. Stanl ey is sent to an awful detention center for 'bad boys ' called Camp Green Lake. At the camp, the boys have to dig five foot wide five foot deep holes. Hardly anything at Camp Green Lake is green. The ·only things green for miles are two oak trees the boys are not allowed to use for shade. The boys aren't digging just for character improvement. The warden is looking for something. I can't tell you what she is looking for, but I can give you a clue. Here'' your clue: It is something that might have belonged to a famous outlaw called Kissin' Kate Barlow. But that's all you need to know about what happens. I thought it wa' annoying the ftrst time I read the book because it kept fla,hing back and forth in time. It was a bit confusing. Now fpr the characters. Mr. Sir is an absolute devil. Zero is from up above, he is a good friend. Zig-Zag is just a Sunday, September 14, 2003; '-.~ " " t \l-t-'lf' ... ',· ' Diane NaderEpling ~ '. ~ • • big smart mouth all the way through . Is Armpit named after hi s smelly armpits? Well, anyway, I thought the yellow-.spotted lizards · were mteresung. Stanley's character was very quiet and ordinary for most of the book and I didn't like that. I would have made him more interesting. The warden's character was really vivid. She is bossy, she's very greedy, and she's mean. She even scratches Mr. Sir with some rattlesnake venom and she tries to steal something valuable from one of the boys . I think the book was wellwritten, and I recommend it for anyone who can read! Well Alexandra, all I can say is Wow! Now get back to your school work before the editor hires you to take over my column. Julia Lewis, age 9, emailed me with a very concise and impassioned review .. The Phantom Stallion is an exciting series that sparks my exclusive love of horses and imagination. It is a series a about a young girl and a horse that was once hers. The horse escaped during an accident and became a wild Stallion. The stallion became known as the 'Phantom Stallion.' I enjoy the adventure, mystery and surprises these books bring. So I recommend kids to read "Phantom Stallion" series by Terri Farley. Thank you Julia for that very informative review. Ben Mollohan, age 9, really enjoyed reviewing the 'Animorph' series by K. A.

The books are a great blend of science fiction and fantasy.' Laura Epling, age 8, reviews 'A Wrinkle in Time', by Madeleine L'Engle. 'There are twelve chapters in this book and I am on the sixth chapter called the "Happy Medium" who is a fortune teller with a crystal ball. The main character is Margaret Murray, Meg for short. Her Dad, a scientist, is out fighting some dark shadow thing that is evil. Meg and her friend Calvin, and her little brother Charles Wallace are going out to a different galaxy and planet, with the help of Mrs. Whatsit, Mrs. Who and Mrs. Which. A Wrinkle in Time is also called a tesseract, which is time travel in the fifth dimension. It is .faster than the speed of light. Right now, they are on the planet, Uriel, where her father is fighting the dark thing, but they haven't found him yet. I picked up this book because my Mom read it when she was my age and it sounded interesting. At ftrSt, when I looked at the book, before I started reading it, I didn't really know if it was going to be as good as the Harry Potter books, but as it turned out I think it might have been a little better. I'll let you know how it turns out when I finish the book. So there you have it. Books reviewed by kids for kids. Keep reading.

However, I feel compelled to (ell you about my family's latest journey because I think you would enjoy it too. We went to up-state New York, about an hour north of Albany, to a little town called Whitehall, at Lock 12 on the Champlain Canal. There we picked up a rented boat with two bedrooms, two TINY bathrooms, a TINY kitchen with a TINY fridge and two-burner electric stove, a lounge area, an eatin~ area, and a section for the ptlot with all of the con. trois and all of the navigation gear. The guy gave us about an hour of instruction, then trustingly turned us "loose with the boat! I had to hold the soup kettle on the stove when another boat ,passed by making waves, so it would not fall. The first two days we made our way through seven locks to Schuylerville, where we visited the summer home of Philip Schuyler, Revolutionary War general and NY senator. also Alexander Hamilton's father-in-law. We went back north to Whitehall, then entered Lake Champlain. It was incredibly with the Adirondack Mountains on the left and the Green Mountains of Vermont on the right. We stopped for two nights at Basin Harbor Resort on the Vermont side. There are some seventy cabins (actually small houses) for rent, plus a golf course, swimming, boating, a children's program, a marine museum, tennis, ping pong, and hiking available.

Qhio Herit«re Mort~ 8517 North Dixie Drive #300 Dayton, OH 45414 TORONTO (AP) - Jim Jarmusch is on a coffee break. Leave it to the director of such unhurriedly paced films as "Stranger Than Paradise," "Down by Law" and "G.hosl Dog : The Way of the Samurai" to make quiet banter over caffeine and nicotine the focus of an entire movie. "Coffee and Cigarettes," ending its run at the Toronto International Film Festival on Wednesday, collects a series of strange encounters Jarmusch has been capturing in short films since the mid1980s. Shot in black and white, they feature a great cast that includes Cate Blanchett, Bill Murray, lggy Pop, Tom Waits, GZA and RZA of WuTang Clan , Steve Buscemi and Alfred Molina. They babble and pranle about anything and everything, often carrying on bizarre and extended conversations even when their characters have little to say. Jarmusch said the focus on idle coffee breaks is akin to his film "Night on Earth," which plays out entirely during five separate taxi ·rides taking place at the same time in cities around the globe. "The reason I made that is, when you're watching movies, the guy's girlfriend calls him, she's having something bad happening, and he says, 'I'll take a cab. I'll be right over.' Cut to him getting out of the cab," Jarmusch said in an interview with The Associated .Press. "And my brain always says, what aliout the cab ride? The incidental thing, the thing that's not the destination? "So this is like little breaks in your day that are not part of the structure. It's not like, what did you do today? I had a coffee break. That's the last thing you think of. So I Jove the idea -of the thing you're not drawn .to dramatically becoming the essence of the whole thing. It's very contrary, but my brain works that way a Jot." Jarmusch has lined up distributors for "Coffee and Cigarettes". across much of Europe, and United Artists announced Tuesday at the Toronto festival that it has bought North American rights to the film. "Coffee and Cigarettes" originated in 1986 when Jarmusch was asked to make a short film for "Saturday Night Live." That first one starred Roberto Benigni and Steven Wright in a goofy, highly improvised story of two men meeting over coffee and smokes. More films followed over the next decade and a half, with Jarmusch directing the most recent ones early this year. The story lines have grown gradually more intricate and scripted, including · Blanchett's, in which she plays dual roles as a movie star and an embittered, envious cousin in an awkward reunion. Murray appears in a hilarious scenario as a caffeine junkie swilling coffee straight from the pot and pondering the value of alternative medicine with RZA and GZA. Other films meander through discussions of Nicola Tesla's achievements, the luster of Paris in the 1920s and conspiracy theories about Elvis Presley. Jarmusch hopes to continue the coffee-and-cigarette shorts in coming years, stitching new ones together into a second feature-length collection. His main inspiration? "Probably too much caffeine," Jarmusch said. .-.....,,., Beverly Gettles above Lake Champlain and was the sit of several battles with the British. There was also a significant naval battle on the lake in 1776, where our troops were led by Benedict Arnold. Despite heavy casualties, he was able to hold off the British and buy another year for preparation for other battles. The British retreated to Canada and did not fight during the winter, because the lake freezes, so there was no troop movement then. Perhaps that is one source of the quote, "April is the cruelest month", because that is when the casualties begin again. Some of the things we did on our trip were: buy groceries, consult navigation charts, hold ropes in the Jocks, read our guidebooks, swab the deck, buy groceries, walk .through the little towns, enjoy the birds, (saw a bald eagle, many blue herons, cranes, and ducks) take pictures, listen to weather band radio, check the filters, blow the fuses oy having the toaster, coffeemaker, and stove on at the same time, read books, and magazines, and buy more groceries (six people on a boat eat A LOT.) I did read Alice Hoffman 's latest novel, The Probable Future. This is her 16th novel, including Pracrical Magic, The River King, and The Blue Diary. This one is about a family in New England whose women live with the legacy of witchcraft. Rebecca Sparrow wandered out of the woods into the colonial village of Unity. She could not feel pain . The mischievous boys of the town shot her with arrows. She was drowned as a witch in the . 1600s. Her descendants all had a gift that arrived on each girl's 13th birthday. Three generations are por- · trayed in this novel. Elinor, the dying matriarch, can spot a liar, her estranged daughter · Jenny, dreams other people's dreams, and ·Jenny's daughter, rebellious and unhappy . S,tella receives the 'gift' of knowing how and when cer- · tain people will die. Jenny and her husband, alcoholic and charming Will, : are divorced. Jenny has not · spoken to her mother in years. Elinor has become a recluse, spending most of her· time in her garden. While having a birthday · dinner with her father, Stella spots a woman who will be murdered. When Will tells the police, and the woman is killed a week later, he becomes the primary suspect. This book is filled with . lovable characters - minor ones including the old town , doctor and his grandson. Stella's bitter and cynical . best friend, Will 's brother, . Matt, who has carried a . · torch for Jenny for years. This is a story of how · blood is thicker than almost anything else, how old wounds can e~entually heal, and people can be transformed by circumstances ; and a change of heart. Hoffman combines the ordi- nary and the supernatural in an intriguing story. Loved this one!

Dl 6unbap tltim~ -6rntintl INSIDE There's no mistaking the 2004 Mazda RX-8 for any other car. If the styling and fourdoor-sporty-car concept don't differentiate enough, there's always the rotary engine under the hood. Not since lhe 1995 model year has Mazda offered a ·vehicle wilh a rotary engine. In fact, no other automaker currently ha.~ one in a mass-produced, passenger vehicle sold in lhis country. But the rotary engine - here a !.3-liter Renesis powerplant capable of 197 horsepower wilh automatic transmission and 238 horses wilh six-speed manual. is entrenched in Mazda history. A four-rotor engine helped Mazda become the first Japanese carmaker to win an overall victory in 1991 in the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans. With a starting manufacturer's suggested retail price, including destination charge, of $25,700 for an automatic tmnsmission model, the 2004 RX-8 is some $12,000 less than its predecessor RX-7, which ended distribution in the United States after 1995. There are a lot of strange bulges and undulations on the RX-8 body. Folks aren't likely to confuse this car with the Nissan 350Z, for example, which has tight-fitting, edgy sheet metal that seems stretched into place. · Instead, the RX-~ wheel wells are exaggerated by sport utility-like fender flares and the roof and hood have bulges here and there. Inside. there's a similar sense of confusion as a couple of air vents and the center stack in the dashboard have a round theme, while here and there, Mazda designers interjected softly triangular shapes meant to be reminiscent of the rotary engine . The test car's fabric seats, wilh side-ribbed material, 3!1d the optional noor mats with a different kind of pattern, added to the helter-skelter feel. At leastlhe RX-8 seats were comfortable and held me in place during aggressive maneuvers. Spons car purists may be unimpressed by Mazda's effort to make the RX-8 usable for four passengers. I know I was skeptical of the idea of an RX with four doors and four seats. But don't let the RX-8's looks fool you. The RX-8 wheelbase, lhe distance from lhe middle of lhe front wheel on one side to lhe middle of lhe rear wheel on lhe same side of lhe ·car, is I 06.3 inches. This compares with 95.1 inches in lhe Porsche Boxster and l04.3 inches in lhe 350Z two-seaters. After climbing inside the back seat - which is relatively easy because of the rear-hinged, small, rear doors - · I found more leg and head room than I had expected. Why, with the driver seat moved forward on its tracks to accommodate a d~i ver my size - 5 feet 4 - I rested quite easily in the back seat and could even extend my legs. I Mazda said rear legroom totals 32.2 inches, while rearseat headroom in my tester without a sonroof was 36.8 inches. But if the front seats are back on lheir tracks alllhe way and reclined a bit, you may as well forget even putting a grade school youngster in lhe RX-8's back seat because legroom becomes negligible. I still wouldn't want to ride in the back seat for a long trip. The rear door window is small, opens only slightly outward manually, and the window pillar back lhere is thick and blocking. The center tunnel of lhe car creates a confining, high-riding center console between lhe two individual back seats, too. And don't pull hard on lhe plastic door that provides a pass-through from the trunk. In the test car, the plastic door came out of its slots easily and lifted into my hands. The best sj)ot to be in the RX-8, not sufprisingly, is lhe driver's seat. True, this car is so low to the ground even lhe driver can't see much around trucks, vans and SUVs .. l found myself at eye level with a taillamp on a Jeep, for example. But lhe RX-8's quickresp<?nse sieering, wonderful wetght balance created by lhe use of the compact rotary engine, satisfying engine sounds and lhe shon-lhrow, satisfying gear-shifter provide an allaround spons car experience. The engine is unique low, smallish and fitted a bit back from the front of the hood. This helps account for the RX-8's excellent 50-50 front/rear wei~;ht distribution. But the engme isn't visible when you raise the hood, because it's under a large, blaek, plastic cover. In fact, the battery has a black. plastic cover on it, too. The RX-8 hugs the road impressively, no matter if a driver is daning ai'ound anolher vehicle in city traffic or relishing lhe curves on Highway I on California's coast. Riders in lhe test car, which had an optional spon suspension, felt vibrations much of lhe time, but it wasn't too harsh except on really rough pavement Front suspension is an independent double wishbone design, while !here's an independent multilink at lhe rear. . The test car had optional, uplevel sport tires that were 18-inchers, and the steering is assisted rack-and-pinion that requires a bit of attention. I found the RX-8 drifting to the si(je of the road as I took my focus off driving and onto a roadside scene, for instance. While lhere have been no safety recalls oflhe RX-8 since its summer debut, Mazda officials embarrassingly had to restate and lower lhe horsepower mting of lhe engine in August and agreed to make amends to early RX-8 buyers. Specilically, lhe company would buy back lhe car, or buyers who kept it could get free mainte- nance during lhe warranty period and a $500 credit for gasolme. This is not the ftrst time Mazda had lhis issue. In 1999. lhe company restated the horse- GALLIPOLIS - A full. calendar of events is being scheduled for the wming year at Raccoon Creek County Park , said 0.0 .

Facts II really hasn't been that long ago when parents thought of vaccinations as a medical miracle and wanted their children vaccinated. Hundreds of children would line up outside clinics just to get vaccinated. Today, parents question the necessity of vaccines and fear them due to misconceptions and myths that have been publicized as nuths without any proof. A great deal of infonnation about vaccines is available to all parents, which is good because parents need information to be able to make informed decisions about vaccinations. Following six misconceptions that have been brought out about vaccinations, along with an explanation on why they are misconceptions. I. Diseases have already begun to disappear before vaccines were introduced, because of bener hygiene and sanitation. When three countries -Great Britain, Sweden, and Japan. all cut back the use of pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine because of parent's fears, the effect was dramatic. In Great Britain, a drop in pertussis vaccination in 1914 was followed by an epidemic of more than IOO,(XX) cases of pertussis and 36 demhs by 1978. In Japan, a drop in vaccination rates from 70 percent to 20 to 40 percent led to a jump in pertussis from 393 cases and no deaths in 1974to 13,000 cases and 41 deaths in 1979. In Sweden, the annual incidence rate of pertussis per I00.000 children 0-6 ye:m; of age increa'ied from 700 cao;es in 1981 to 3,200 in 1985. This shows that without vaccines. the disem;es would come back. Of more immedime interest is the major epidemic of diphtheria now occuning in the !Ortner Soviet Union, where low inununiwtion rates resulted in an in== lium 839 ca>es in 1989 to nearly 50,000 m<es and 1,700 deaths in 1994. 2. Vaccines cause many hannful side effects. illnesses; and even death-not to mention possible long-term effects we are Pt. Pleasant, WV about .Prenatal care Lisa Burleson, R.N. don't even know about. Vaccines are actually very safe. Most vaccine adverse events are minor and temporary. such as a sore ann or mild fever. These minor side effects can often be controlled by taking acetaminophen (ex: Tylenol) or children's Ibuprofen before or after the vaccination. More serious adverse events are rare and some are so rare that risk. cannot be accurately . assessed. 3. DTP vaccine causes S!DS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) This statement came out because most children who die of SIDS have recently been vaccinated with Dll', but there is no logic to it. lt is like saying eating bread causes car crashes because most drivers who cmsh their cars could probably be shown to have eaten bread within the past 24 hour-s. · Most SlDS deaths occur during the age mnge when 3 shots of Dll' are given. A number of well-controlled studies conducted during the 1980s found tlKU SIDS deaths would llllve occurred even if no vaccinations had been given. 4. Vaccine preventable diseases have been vinually eliminated lrom the United States. It's nue that v:x:cination has reduced most vaccine-preventable disea-;es to low levels in tllC United States. However. son1e' of them are still out there in other pans of the world. Travelers can tmknowingly bring these diseao;es into the United States.

Wouldn't this mean that we would also try to avoid fat in our diets whenever we could? The anic le 's author, John L. Stanton, a professor of food marketing at St. Joseph's University in Philadelt?hia, shares survey results that mdicate Americans are more interested in food's flavor and con- venience than they are in its nutrition. But nutritionists have been concerned for years that Americans over-indulge on "fat free" or "low-fat" food, guilt -free, without ever considerin(l calorie content. Some nutntionists hope that the lower demand for lower-fat foods means Americans are getting more savvy to "no-fat" and "low-fat" claims: They are beginnin~ to realize that lower fat doesn 1 always mean lower calorie.
