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. They might decide that if the fat-free and low-fat versions aren'tlower calorie, they might as well have the "real thing," and just eat less of it. For example. one type of oatmeal-raisin cookie contains 3.5 grams of fat and I07 calories per serving.

Lois Sterrett, 62, has come home to roost in Meigs County. Sterrett is president of the Sonshine Circle. As pan of the Dorcas-Bethany United Methodist Church, the Sonshine Circle makes noodles. pies and cakes to raise money for charity. They were at the Racine Flower Festival last Saturday at Star Mill Park selling noodles for $2 a ba~. The money the Sonshme Circle raises supports the United Way, the homeless, battered w-omen's groups, senior citizens, and many other good will organizations. Sterrett said that between I0 to 12 people get together to make dozens ofbatches of noodles. She said it takes two and half hours to carefully boil the water while stirring the mixture which will become the noodle. Next. the noodles are rolled and cut which tak~:s another couple of hours. Finally, the noodles are hung up to dry. . When Sterrett is not making noodles, she lives on a large famt with cattle. Appaloosa horses, and a lot kittens. She joked that every time a horse ts sold, a free kitten goes with it and as an added bonus. Sterrett was introduced to her husband, Dick, more than 44 years ago by her friend Donna, who would l:tter marry Bob Byer - which Sterrett introduced her to.

O.hio ranks high nationwide in hazardous material spills COLUMBUS (AP)- Ohio ranked second last year in the number of hazardous-material spills on highways, railways and in the air - the I Oth consecutive year that it has either h~d the highest or second highest number of spills, ae<!ording to the U.S. Department of Transportation. :1he 1,223 spills last year trailed only the 1,324 spills recorded in Illinois. · Last year, spills in Ohio resulted in $1 .8 million worth of damage and cleanups. Most hi~hway spills involved a corros1ve chemical such as an acid or a flammable material such as gasoline. The federal transportation a¥ency said 90 percent of the htghway spills occurred because of human error, including dropped or punctured packages. Another 8 percent were the result of corrosion or a defect in the packaging, such as an improper seal. Despite Ohio's record, "I don't think it's as bad as it looks," said Rob Marvin, transportation director for the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio, which inspects trucks and trucking companies. He said the state is doing a good job of getting cargo companies to foUow the regulations on carrying hazardous chemicals. He said heavy truck traffic crossing Ohio is mostly to blame for the spills. The Ohio Department of Transportation said the state has the fifthhighest volume of truck traffic in the United States. "This is the last categol'Y, Ohio wants to be a leader in, ' said Jack Shaner, a spokesman for the Ohio Envirqnmental Council. Last year, fedEx Ground had 484 highway spills, nearly half of the total number of highway spills and nearly 400 more than Yellow Freight System, the second-ranking company. FedEx Ground spokeswoman Allison Sobczak said the high number of spills was partly due to the company's high volume of traffic . FedEx Ground has I 0 hubs in Ohio. Federal law requires that companies report all spills. The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency requires notification of spills involving at least 25 gallons. There were no reported spills in Ohio's waterways last year and 34 railway spills. Airborne Express was responsible for 63 spills about 75 percent of the state's 85 air spills last year. Considering that the hub in Wilmington handles nearly 20,000 packages a night, 63 spills isn't a bad record, said Beth Huber, a spokeswoman for ABX Air, which transports packages for Airborne Express.

'200.20 ~ COLUMBUS (AP) - A racist power play by Ohio lawmakers 135 years ago gave modern Ohioans the chance to re-examine the changing nature of the Constitution. · A cel'ebration this week honors the state's ratification, for the second time, of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The first vote came in 1867 when the state 's General Assembly ratified the alnendment that guarantees . equal protection for every citizen under the law. Its purpose was protecting newly freed slaves after the Civil War. The next year, however, the Ohio Democratic Party which opp<ised voting rights for blacks -won control of the House and Senate and voted to rescind Ohio's ratification of the amendment. Nevertheless, Congress announced in July 1868 that the amendment had been ratified. Public meetings Regardless, Mallory said last week that his resolution was needed to settle Ohio's position on voting rights for blacks. : "We need to take away the · question of whether we were ' legitimately on record as supportin g the 14th Amendment ," he said. Courts' subsequent inter- , pretation of the amendment should not have entered the ' discussion. he said . "What · we were doing was rolling • back the clock to 1868 (to) show support for the 14th Amendment."

The case of Caleb Pinney, a police officer in this central Ohio community 17 miles, west of Columbus, is typicaf. Pinney, 31 , joined the police force six years ago, hoping eventually to retire from the department. But his $30,000 annual salary is $4,000 less than a rookie police officer in Columbus makes and $23,000 less than he 'd be making in Columbus with the same amount of experience. "I' m being fulfilled professionally. It 's financially that's the problem," Pinney said. Until now, loyalty to his hometown and a strong sense of camaraderie with his coworkers have kept Pinney from straying. But in the last year, he has applied for two positions at Columbus-area departments. "Until last year, I had never applied anywhere else, because my heart's here," he said. "I felt that if I left, I'd be letting them down." Police Chief Chris Forshey said keeping searoned officers is a constant struggle. He said crime in western Licking County is on the rise, but the department can't afford the wages needed to entice moreexperienced officers to stay. At least two other officers on Forshey's staff have applied to work elsewhere. Each of tl.e department 's ll patrolmen has sill years of experience or fewer. Club tours facility RUTLAND -Members of the Rutland Garden Club recently toured the Glasshouse Works in Stewart recently. They were joined by a guest, Rosalie Story, for the tour. The original house was fi'rst used as a hotel, followed by a residence for senior citizens, but just prior to its present status was home 'to an elderly woman and her three dogs and 17 cats. The home is now owned by Thomas Wino and Kenneth Frieling. The home contains many pottery items, paintings, iron work, wood carvings, sandstone carvings, small water fountains, an old organ, candles, books on gardening, and other items. One attraction is all' E~yptian room, which contams a replica of King Tht's. sarcophagous, a replica of the head of Queen Nefertiti, and the bird-human god the kinds and queens of the time worshipped. . The items in the home are imported from ail over the world and local artisans. In the garden area outside is a fish pond, a water garden, many classical reproductions of statuaries and friezes, and iron work. The .. garden also features many varieties of both traditional and unusual flowers, where many species come in from all over the world. The Glasshouse Works also has a shipping service, but is recommended to place orders early in February for spring plantings. Following their tour, members traveled to Athens for lunch at Ponderosa.

Diane K. Hill Controller-Interim Publisher Charlene Hoeflich General Manager-News Editor NATIONAL ·Page4 VIEW Bush A rematkable address The Sun, Baltimore, Md., on reaction to President Bush~ address: President Bush's address to the nation on Iraq was remarkable - not for what he said. but for what he did not say. It was equally remarkable not for the questions he answered, but for those he left unanswered. The American people learned little that they didn't know: that the United States is mired in an increasingly dangerous, expensive occupation at the center of a campaign against terrorism that was launched on specious grounds .... Make no mistake about it , much is riding on what Bush didn't say, on the questions he didn't answer: The safety of American soldiers. More · servicemen and women have died since Bush declared major "combat over than died during the contlict. If the United States can 't count on I 0,000 to 15,000 non-American troops in the coming months , it will have to tap into its already depleted force. The fiscal heallh of the nation. Bush's $87 billion request would push the U.S. deficit for next year to more than half~ trillion dollars - a record - and the Bush tax cuts would worsen· the situation in the future. The fate of the Iraqi people. The terrorist attacks, lack of basi.c services and overall instability in the country are outpacing the accomplishments of the U.S.-Ied civil administration. Bush should forgo politically palatable enticements to U.N. members and give them a stake in a safe. secure, productive Iraq. In their latest joint appearance last Thursday, not one Democratic presidential cwldidate said that America's purpose in Iraq should be to "win," "prevail," establish a democracy - or even "persevere." The message the Democrats sent is tlmt the best the United States can do is to tum responsibility for Iraq over to others - the United Nations, NATO. the Iraqis. Some candidates made clear . that the purpOse was not to succeed. but to get out. This could be a winning political strategy, given the reverses the Bush administration has suffered recently and the possibility that its policy could go badly wrong. But on a number of other issues brought up in the New Mexico debate, the Democrats provided Bush with plenty of ammunition for the November election. Not one of the Democmts made any reterence to the need to. beef up border security in the face of potential terrotism probably in an attempt to appeal to Latino voters. Some of them identified Osama bin Laden as a more formidable menace than Saddam Hussein. but excoriated Attorney General John Ashcroft's efforts to keep the country safe from AI Qaeda sleeper cells or infiltrators from abroad. In addition, many of them condemned Bush for ignoring Latin America. Yet all except Sen. Joe Liebennan. D-Conn .. declared opposition to freetrade agreements Bush is negotiating that will allow hemisphc<ric countries to prosper. The subtext of much of the Democmtic commentary is that making nice with "allies" such as Franee and Germany regardless of their terms - and tuming responsibilities over to the United Nations would facilitate an American exit. The Democrats all accused Bush - rightly enough - of failing to plan adequately for the Iraq war alierrnath. But there was no evidence that any Democrat has a plan other than getting the United Nations to take over. Rep. Richard Gephardt. DMo., who has flipped from war supporter to harsh Bush critic, said "we cannot cut and run," but he declared that Bush has been "a miserable failure" in Iraq. He swd the solution is to "work out a resolution" with nations including France, which has proved its major foreign policy purpose is to thwart ihe United States. All this may work for Democrats if Bush's Iraq policy tums into a disaster. But it will be an embarrassment if the present chaotic period is akin to the dark early months of the Civil War or World War U, before this country found a way to win. In the meantime, the Democrats acted as though the Sept. II , 200 I, attacks were but a convenient "excuse" by the Bush administration to impose a restrictive immigration policy, which was a necessity. given the potential of new terrorism. Almost comically, Dean denounced "racial profiling" against Arab-Americans, then went on to say there is no reason to restrict Latin American Morton Kondracke Legitimately. the candidates called for more liberal immigration policies. But, by depriving Latin American countries of the ability to. sell their products in the United States, they will end up overwhelming the southern borders with illegal aliens seeking an escape from poverty. On Iraq, the most left-wing of .the nine contenders, Rep. Dennis Kucinich, D-Ohio, minced no words: "It's time to bring the United Nations in and get the U.S. out," he declared to rousing applause. That view matches rank-and-file voter sentiment. with polls indicating that more than 60 percent of Democrats favor U.S. withdrawal from lrdq. Sen. Bob Graham, D-Fia.. said the major U.S. challenge is lo "extricate ourselves from Iraq. and I believe the tirst step is going to be to rebuild relationships with our allies." Frontrunner and former Vennont Gov. Howard Dean - who was mrely challenged on his views (when he was. it was mainly by Liebem1an) said "we need more troops. They're going to be foreign troops, as they should ha~e been in the tirst · place, not American troops. Ours need to come home." immigration because "the last time I looked not one of the 19 hijackers was Latino." Even Lieberman, who has proposed a sensible "earned legalization" prognun, said that "due process needs to be put into our immigration laws so that the Justice Department under John Ashcroft can't again arrest almost 800 undocumented immigrants and put them in jail without charges, without counsel and without notice to their families ." Democrats will be in trouble if they continue vilifying Ashcroti as the chief demon of the war on terrorism, not Osama bin Laden . And on trade, Lieberman correctly observed that if the United States requires poor countries to live up to U.S. labor and environmental standards to trade with the United States, it will cost thousands of U.S. jobs. Lieberman charged that "the Bush recession will be followed by a Dean depression" after Dean said that would be his trade policy. One Democrat after another said that the United States has to have a better policy toward Latin America, but declared opposition to a Free Trade Area of the Americas and a Central American Free Trade Agreement that would give Latin American countries more access to U.S. markets. The Democrats' New Mexico audience seemed to appreciate what the candidates said, but if voters think about it awhile, they won't.

Letters should be in go,od taste, addressing issues, not personalities. . The opinions expressed in the column below are the consensus of the Ohio .Valley Publishing Co. editorial board, unl~ss otherwise'noted. s 1 Presidential hopeful Howard Dean IS using the Internet more effectively than Nigerian entreprene uJs and Viagra manufacturer~ . combined. He raised $1 million in a four-day period last month. His campaign expects to raise $10.3 million in the three months ending Sept. 30, the most any Democratic presidential candidate has ever raised in a similar period with the exception of Clinton, who was a sitting president when he did it in 1995. While all of that is impressive, I am more struck by something else. Dean is harnessing the vastness . of the Internet to shrink a presidential campaign down to the size of a neighborhood bar. He might very well be reinventing modern democracy. The irony is that the Internet, the ultimate in cold technology, is facilitating the most personal campaign in history. Instead of using pamphlets to deliver his message, Dean has people. Instead of mailings. Dean has meetings. Iike the one I attended in Marin, Calif., last week. ' It was held at an establishment called Ted's, where I have spent long hours with ' girlfriel)ds dissecting other people's relationships over Scrabble and white wine. It is a neighborhood hangout where, dogs lie under their owners' barstools and kids play .pool for $8 an hour while their parent s eat in peace. On this · night, I watched ~ Joan Ryan I people sit in whatever chairs were empty, introducing themselves to others at their table, ordering a burger or a Sltlad,' and talking about how they hadn't joined a political campaign since the Carter campaign or since McGovern and how they were so sick of what was happening in the country and how maybe Dean had the best chance to un seat the current resident of the White House. On the same small stage where I had watched the Zydeco Flames two weeks ago, teacher Kim Potochnik was going over the agenda for the evening. He 's been leading Howard Dean meetups in Marin the first Wednesday of every month since Apri l, when 12 people gathered on ,a cold spring night around the tailgate of a pickup truck in the parking lot of Borders, which wouldn' t allow them lo meet inside. Every month the gatherings have grow n, and on this night qbout 70 people have shown up, tilling every barstool and table, forcing Ted himself to !etch more chairs from the pool room. Many seemed to ' have come straight from work. One couple arrived pushing their toddler in a stroller. I sat with a high-tech worker named Pat, whose sister was attending a Dean meet-up in Mill Valley, and a freelance writer ; named Linda, who had signed up to be on the outreach committee at her first meet-up last month. "The only way to beat the Republican money is to show up in large numbers," Pat .~ aid. , 1 Potochnik was saying that he and 14 other volunteers sat · at his dining room table earlier this summer and·wrote personal letters to voters in New Hampshire . They were among the 50,000 letters that poured into New Hampshire from Dean supporters across the country. Potochnik was happy to report they made an impact: Polls had Sen. John Kerry leading Dean in June, 25 percent to 22 percent, and now Dean is leading Kerry, 38 percent to 17 percent. Potochnik cued the video, in which regular folk s explained why they supported Dean ("We need to take our country back!") and Dean u plained why regular folks should support him ("We need to take our country back!"). Then, first-time attendees to the meet-up we·re invited to come forward to say why they had come.

All riders turning in money will receive a patch, and other prizes depending on funds raised . Those who raise $35, or more will receive a t-shirt; $75, or more a t-shirt and and black jeans. "You can't count on us anymore. You guys have to do the work." A st udent from Marin Academy said he was going to start a Howard Dean club at school. Jane from San Rafael , a middle-aged woman in bright red overalls, explained, " I've been one angry woman since the election in 2000. Dean comes closest to what I believe." Potochnik announced something called a Bushwhack on Sept. 13 that would include a 4 p.m . statewide conference with the candidate himself. And there would also be a potluck in Novato for all campaign volunteers. "If you've been part of the Dean campaign for more than 20 seconds, you're invited," Potochnik satd. Then he had Dan Carr wave his hand from the back of the room so everyone would know who was collecting the volunteer forms . On my way out of Ted's, a man in a T-shirt and shorts was coming in . He scanned the Howard Dean placards on the walls and the Howard Dean buttons on everybody's shirts. "Who," he asked the bartender. "is Howard Dean?" Ah, so· many people to reach, and only 14 molilhs until election day. (Joan Ryan is a columnisl for rite San Francisco Chronicle.

'' DAYTON (AP) Farmers, ranchers and winemakers who typically make their livl'ng by selling their products now have another way to make a buck. · They are capitalizing off a trend called agritourism in which city residents and suburbanites pay to see up close what life is like in the country. "People enjoy learning and experiencing what it's like to be part of America's breadbasket," said Diana Thompson , director of Ohio 's Historic West, an organization of I0 west-central Ohio counties that promotes cultural and heritage tourism. "There's some kind of Americana feel. That · has become more prevalent, certainly in our region." About 62.4 million Americans - nearly 30 percent of the U.S . population - visited a farm during a 12-month period in 2000-200 I, according to data from the 2000 National Survey on Recreation and the Environment. " It is exploding." Jane Eckert , principal of Eckert AgriMarketing of St. Louis, said of the agritourism trend. "I strongly believe thi s is not a fad. The quality and extent Of experiences that people can have in a farm setting are not like anything else." Agritourism is especially popular during the harvest season with the added attracl·ions of corn mazes, pumpkin patches, apple picking, cider making and hay rides. Eckert told about 70 government and tourism ofiicials and farmers at a meeting in westcentr.ll Ohio earlier this year that several economic trends in farming are driving agntourism. She said the trends include The Daily Sentinel • Page 5 FIRST IN FLIGHT • sports bag; <$ 125, those items and a sweatshi rt : and $175, those items and a cap.

A desire by travelers for shorter trips also benefits agritourism because farm]> are easi ly accessible: The state's tourism division said that 118.1\ million - or 78. percent - of the 152.6 million trips Ohioans took last year were day trips. One of the most popular agritourism attractions is the corn maze. where people try to find their way through a maze of cornstalks. The company is affiliated with more than 140 independently owned mazes in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom .and Italy. Combs said the company is aftiliated with 10 mazes in Ohio - mon; than in any other stale. Mazes average about 12.000 visitors over six to eight weeks, but a season 's attendance can range from I ,000 to 40,0()(), Combs said. Many maze owners have added haunted hayrides, pumpkin patches and pumpkin launches - sticking ears of corn in cannons and shooting them at targets to appeal to touri sts. Kel sey Deaton also is adding new attractions at the Champaign County farm that ha.'\ been in her family since the 1840s.

Huntington police join the fight against online predators HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (AP) - The city's police department has joined two others in West Virginia to crack down on people using the Internet to prey on children. Police departments in Beckley, Huntington and Hurricane are participating in Operation Blue Ridge Thunder, a Virginia-based task force consisting of more than 130 police agencies across the country training to fight Internet crimes.

Kirk worked on the sculpture for three days with her daughter Andrea Ziemak, friend Richard Whitehead and art instructor Frederic Bonin Pissarro. the great-grandson of French Impressionist painter Camille Pissarro. The artists used a variety of instruments, including an edger, a spade, stainless steel wires used for slicing hunks of cheese, heavy-duty icc cream scoo ps, melon bailers, putty knives and bottle openers. Kirk said she enjoyed watching people stop at the sculpture outside the city's convention centeiY Many of them would do a doubletake as they stared. laughed and snapped picture s of the ptg .

(AP)- Suspended Ohio State running back Maurice Clarett has asked the NFL to change its rules and make him eligible for the 2004 NFL draft. Commissioner Paul.. Tagliabue said Sunday that the league received a request last week from Clarett's lawyer, Alan C. Milstein. Talgliabue told The Associated Press that a lawyer from his office would meet with a lawyer for Clareu to discuss the case, probably the week after next. Last week, Claret! was suspended by Ohio State for at least one season for violating NCAA bylaws concerning benet1ts for alhletes and for lying to investi~ators . Also, Ohio State is mvestigating charges that athletes received . improper help in classes. Claret! , who rushed for 1.237 yards and 18 lauchdowns last season as Ohio State won the national championship, is in his second year at the school. Under NFL rules, he would not be eligible for the draft until his third year oul of high school, which would be 2005. Ta~liabue said the NFL nemams opposed to chan~ing that rule, which was put mto effect in 1990 with the agreement of the NFL Players' Association . "I think it would be better if he stayed in school," the commissioner said. Asked if he thought, as a lawyer, that the NFL could win a lawsuit if Claret! were to file one, Tagliabue replied: "My feeling as commissioner is that we have a very strong case and that we'll wm it." CBS Sports reported Sunday that Gene Upshaw, lhe executive director of the players union, said that Milstein had threatened a suit Calls to Milstein and Upshaw by The Associated Press were not immediately relurned.

Geiger said he wouldn't commem on how the academic panel is progressing. "What's happening when the door closes. and the kinds of discussions they're having, I can't characterize them because frankly I do not know," Geiger said.

Then Zambrano had to wait out a 13-minute delay when an umpire became ill before the ninth inning, and the Reds got the opening they needed. Ray Olmedo drew a leadoff walk, and Russell Branyan drove him home with a twoout sin~le as the Reds beat the Chicago Cubs 1-0 on Sunday. "That's somethin~ that couldn't be helped,' Cubs manager Dusty Baker said. "Zambrano wasn't as sharp when he came out against that first hitter.

Zambrano (13-1 0) was dazzling for most of the day, allowing only three hits and no walkS through the first eight innings, and retiring 13 straight at one point. But after he came out for the ninth inning, home plate umpire Steve Rippley left the game with a headache. Rippley had been hit in the chin with a foul tip in the sixth inning, and his headache got progressively worse. He was taken to an area hospital for observation, and Zambrano waited ) 3 minutes while second base umpire Jerry Meals changed to go behind the plate.

Claret!, who must make rest itution for "thousands of dollars"' he re<.:eived in improper benetits, could have a portion of his schol;m;hip withheld to provide money for restitution, Geiger said.
