ADWAR, Iraq (AP) "My name is Saddam Hu ssein," the fallen Iraqi leader told U.S. troops in Engli sh as they pulled him out of a dank hole that had become his home. "I am the president of Iraq and I want to negotiate." U.S. soldiers replied: "Regards from President Bush ." The exchange, recounted by Maj. Bryan Reed, operations officer for the 1st Brigade. 4th Infantry Di¥ision one day after Sadd am 's capture was announc.ed, suggested the Iraqi leader wo uld be willing to tell U.S. intelligence everything he knows. Of the most immediate imponance wo uld be any information on the insu rgency responsible for the deaths of nearly 200 American soldiers. On Monday, a series of car bombings at police stations around •he Iraqi capital left eight policemen dead and at · least 14 wounded, police officials said. The deadliest attack was a suicide mi ssion at a station house in northern Ba~hdad where the eig ht offtcers were killed. Two other car bombings at a west -side station ca used four injuries. President Bush had warned attacks would co ntinue as expens pored over documents found with Saddam and his interrogation got underway. Saddam's exact whereabouts Monday were unclear. u.s.· offic ials said only he had been moved to a secure l oc~on. The Dubaibased Arab T\! stati on AIArabiya said he was taken to Qatar, though that could not be confirmed. Eventually, Saddam could be tried tor war crimes by a new · Iraqi tribunal. More immediately. the Americans made clear he faces intensive interrogation - foremost, to find out what he knows about the ongoing rebellion against the U.S.Ied occupation and . late r, about any weapons of mass destructi on his regi me may In th is image realeased by the u.s.

Some sheriff's departments around Ohio have scrapped the three-tiered system of declaring snow emergencies, saying it confuses citizens, ties up dispatchers and irri· tates school administrators and businesses. The Clark County sl)eriff's office in Springfield is the latest department to discontinue declaring snow emergencies using that system. '"When we declare a snow emergency. we have to actually bring in additional people just to answer the phones," Clark County Sheriff Gene Kelly said Thursday. "It can tie up all the phone lines." Kelly said calls from confused citizens asking such things as what the snow emergency means or if local stores are closed can impede and distract dispatchers, who may be trying to respond to a fire or tratl'ic accident. "We ' re trying to release some of the stress and pressure already on dispatchers," Kelly said. Many sheriff' s departments still use the threetiered system of declaring snow emergencies. · Level One means roads are ha za rdous. and motorists should drive with extra care. Leve l Two means whiteout conditions exist, and people should drive only if necessary. Level Three means many roads are impassable, and people should avoid driving if possible. In northeast Ohio, Columbiana County did away with the system years ago. Lorain and Mahoning counties scrapped it in 2000. "It really caused a lot of co~fusion," Mahoning County Sheriff Randall Wellingto n said. "It just became hard to manage." Maj. Michael Budd said people couldn't remember what the different levels meant. Now, the department simply aavises the public on the conditions of the roads, where the trouble · spots are, and lets people decide themselves whether to drive. "It's worked out just fine," Budd said. "People seem to heed the warnings and the advisories." Kelly said he plans to do the same thing. "We' re giving that authori· ty back to them to make th~ir own determination," he sa1d. Kel ly had been using the three-tiered system for the past I7 years. since he's been sheriff. He declared snow emergencies severa l times last winter. Kelly said school superintendents were becoming co11cerned that they could be subject to parent complaints and even lawsuits if the system contmued to be used. " If the sheriff were to declare a snow emergency and they went ahead and had school and had a bus slide off the road or be involved in some crash there would be peo~le call: ing for action agamst the superintendent," Kelly said. · The sheriff also said that when a snow emergency ·is declared, it .is in effect for the entire 412-sqaure-mile county even though it may not be an emergency in some areas. And he said Sheriff adopts classic striped . uniforms after inmate escapes CHARDON (AP) - A jail escape last month has persuaded the sheriff to change the look of his inmates' outfits. Dan McClelland, sheriff of Geauga County in northeast Ohio, recently bought uniforms that feature the classic thick-striped pattern associated with jails of the past. McClelland said inmate s, who used to wear solid-colored jumpsuits, should be easier to spot in the "retro" garb. "Will the se striped uniforms prevent an escape? No," McClelland said. "But if somebody gels out, it 's goi ng to be obvious where they came from." The decision to change came after Joseph E. Dowling escaped last month. He was caught five days later. McClelland bought 60 striped uniforms in two variations, which allow inmates to be color-coded. Profits from the jail com- missary covered the cost, with the county spending less than $800, said John Hiscox, a sheriff 's spokesman. 1 Traditional black-and-white striped outfits will be worn by "high-risk" inmates, such as those held for violent crimes. Orange-and-white stripes are for "'medium-risk" inmates. Low-risk inmates, such as those sentenced to weekends at the jail, eventually will be clad in green-and-white stripes. Those uniform s have not been ordered , Hiscox said . Textile manufacturers that outfit inmates said stripes became popular again in the mid-1990s. At least onefourth of inmate uniforms sold today have stripes, said Pam Hurt of Robinson Textiles in Los Angeles. one of the nation's leading manufacturers of the clothing. In northeast Ohio. inmates in the Lorain Countv and Portage County jai wear stripes. Is Proud to be apart of your life.

'" You dec lare a snow emergency and shut down the entire county, you're stopping commerce," Kelly said. He said in past snow emergencies some residents even asked his department to tell their bosses that they wouldn't be coming to work because the roads were too dangerous. Kelly said that has always been between the worker and the employer. The Ohio Department of Transportation used to post snow emergencies on its Web site, but discontinued doing it a few years ago because not all sheriff's departments were using the three-tiered system.

Iraq Monday, December 15, 2003 Diana West against Palestinian suicidebombers for judgment to The Hague, which is like the principal's offi ce for the International Community. European Muslims, outraged about a proposed mention of Europe's Christian heritage - a pesky fact of hi story in the new EU constitution, raised a phony cry of xenophobia to try to deep-six the effort . European Europeans, meanwhile, protested too much after the United States announced - sacre bleu! that only those nations that had helped liberate Iraq (or now contributed to the country's stabilization) could bid for the $18 .6 billion in reconstruction contracts in Iraq. While the sense of shock was real - Who in Old Europe actually expected repercussions? - the outrage mustered by European politicians fe ll' flat. The U.S . decision, a German government spokesman said, went against ·a spirit of looking to the future together and not to the past.' Translation: How dare Old Europe, having failed to assist in safeguarding the free world, be barred from reaping the profits? Clearly, Old Europe is no Joe Lieberm an. Then there was the outrage that has no name. Or, rather, i t ~ ha s a name (boy, does it have a name). but no voice - at least not ye t. What I refer to is a story on the at newswi re www.memri .com reportin g that abOLH 50 parents ' in a gulf country ' have named their newborn in fants. boys and girl both, lrhab. lrhab is the Arabic word fo r terrorism. According to Memri's report from the newspaper AI-Zaman, lrhab is now the Arabic Ashley and Jason rolled into one because of the ' interpretation given by Osama bin Laden to a verse in the Koran : '... and you shall terrorize the enemies of Allah." That begs the question : If your parents name you ' Terrori sm.' do they want you to grow up and hijack Islam? And, if so, will the Council on AmericanIslami c Relations (CAIR) demant~tan apology ? Fame~ broadcaster Paul Harvey most recently discovered that attributing to Islam anything the CAIR-correctors deem un-lslamic is an outrage and requires an apol ogy. Reporting on the bloody and debasing sport of cockfighting in Iraq, Harvey explained on hi s radio program, that Iraqis who have not 'had human rights for generations, cannot understand why in the world Americans make such a fuss over the animals .... Add to the (Iraqis') thi rst for blood a relig ion which e nco~rages killin g. and it is enti rel y understandable if Americans came to this party unprepared.' Never mind whether cockfighting is a reality in Iraq, and neve r mind whethe r killing is inspired and condoned by countless Islamic authorities, including the Koran. Because, in the words of CAIR's Ibrahim Hooper, Harvey 'falsely attributes to Islam two things that are specifically prohibited by our faith, murder and cruelty to animals,' the broadcaster was asked to recant, to surrender· his freedom of speech and deny hi s powers of observation. And recant he did ·- or, rather, he let his stand-in , Doug Limerick, do so for him. Reporting on 'several leiters' Harvey received 'from dear friend s in the American Muslim communi ty who expressed their disgust with those who have hijacked their religion to achieve their goal through violence,' Limerick said, 'they reminded all of us that lslam is a religion of peace, that terrorists do not represent Islam.' What a relief. Otherwise, this would be the biggest out- · rage of all. (Diana Wesr is a columnist for The Washingron Times.

She was standing at the Abercrombie & Fitch's checkout counter yesterday in tile San Francisco Center. She was blond, thin and wearing a spaghetti-strap camisole and a cutoff-jeans miniskirt low enough on her hips to reveal the waistband of her Abercrombie & Fitch long johns. · 'Can I help you?" 'I'd like to apply lor job," I said. 'Oh ," she said, momentarily nustered. 'You want to check on an applicati'on?" ' No, I'd like an application." She handed me the form, then at my request left to fetch the manager. Huge photographs of fresh -faced blonds covered the walls. As I waited, two a<:tual freshfaced blond employees, trying not to be obviou s, peeked around the wall to take a look at me for themselves. Word had spread: A middle-aged woman in a turtle~eck and slacks was asking lor an app lication. To work here . With us. I must have seemed to them Iike a slab of headcheese trying to sneak onto a plate of petits fours. The fresh-faced blond manager couldn't have been nicer. He said all the right things : The store was always looking for good people, so drop off the tinished application any time. But I haven't turned in the application . 1 don't need another job, and I know and surely th e manager Joan Ryan knuws- 1 don't embody the carefully and expensively created A&F persona. Neither, apparently, do young minority app licants, according to a class-action suit filed against the store chain. The plaintiffs claim Abercrombie & Fitch discriminates against minorities by pressuring stores to hire sales associates who fit the 'A&F look," which from their catalogs, advertisements and looping videos in their stores, is white, young and preferably blond . The plaintiffs daim they were denied jobs or squeezed out of jobs becau se of their race or ethnicity. But as I watched a '60 Minutes" piece· on the suit Sunday mght, I wondered about the balance of private enterprise versus public values. How do we weigh a company's right to maximize its ability to, attract its target audience against society's obligation to protect its citizens against dtscrimination? For example, I wouldn't have much luck getting work at, say, Yank Sing restaurant or Hooters. My age and/or ethnicity do not best renee! the · image the companies want to project. So isn't it simply good business for a company appealing to a certain clientele to hire a staff that will auract that clientele? And if it's OK for a Chinese restaurant to hire only Chinese waiters to create a certain ambience and for Hooters to hire only buxom young things to please its custamers, why is it not OK for A&F to hire almost exclusively young, white employees to sell to a mostly young, white customer base? As black talk show host and lawyer Larry Elder said on '60 Minutes," 'This is about a business deciding, pursuant to its best interests ... that a particu'lar kind of salesperson is more likely to generate more dollars. A&F ought to have the right to set their own policies for good · or for ill." Well, no. Then it also would be OK for a restaurant owner in Selma, Ala. , to claim he doesn't hire AfricanAmericans because white waitresses and cooks make his white customers more comfortable and are better for business. 'And that argument died a long time ago," said Garry Mathiason, a senior partner at Littler. Mendelson, which represents about 30,000 employers. ' It's not only legally wrong, it's not accepted by society." According to the suit, A&F is 'enforcing a nationwide cor11orate policy of' preferring white employees for sales positions, desirable work assignments and favor· able work schedules." The suit says the company recruits employees from colleges, fraternities, sororities and sports that are predominantly white. 'They aren't recruiti.ng from the basketball team," said Tom Saenz, one of the attorneys who coordinated the suit. One UC Berkeley student, who is not white, alleges he applied several times at two different A&F stores in San Francisco . Despite retail experience, he was told there were no positions. But several weeks after his first application, four white male friends applied and were hired immediately and scheduled for shifts. ' A company can project whatever image it wants, but it can't use it as a cover for race discrimination," said Elaine Elinson of the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights in San Ftancisco . · Abercrombie spokespeople have said on several occasions the retailer docs not discriminate . It rejects the accusation that it is a racist company. One could argue that at least it isn't as blatant· ly racist as the national retailer that sold T-shirts last year depicting two Chinese laundrymen with the words, 'Two · Wongs can make it white." Oh, wail. Thai was Abercrombie. Never mind. (Joan Ryan is a colum11ist for the San Francisco Chro>1icle.

At the end of time, he and the others called to acti on were allowed to go home, but Cundiff said their work continued for a month. Cunditf said he didn't go to the scene until the day after the collapse, where the full impact of the tragedy and the stories of individual heroism became known. 'Til tell you. the City Icc & Fuel towboat rescued quite a few people," he said. "Instead of 46 bodies. it could have been hi gher had not the towboat been there to pull people out of the water." The guard continued ao;sisting in the coming weeks, ao; a wrecker it had wa~ employed .to bring debris from boats to the shore for .the reconstruction effort at Henderson that helped detennine the cause of the collapse. Cundiff joined the guard in February 1959, and was one of its 127 members called to active dut y in S~ptember 1961 during the Berlin Wall Crisi$. He was away from home for a year while stationed with the 3664th at Fort Polk, La., sup· porting a Texas armored on,it sent to Germany. In 1964. · Cundiff was employed by the armory as a gunsmith and weldef, a post he held until 1979 when hi s 20 years with the guard ended. During his service, Cundiff saw the 3664th called to help again in '1972 's Buffalo Creek di saster.The 3664th 's departure in for pre-deployment Operation Iraqi Freed om last week al so stirred memorie s for Cundiff. a cook and mechanic during the year he spent at Fort Polk . But nothing has made as deep an impression on him - and the area, he believes - than the enormity of the Silver Bridge collapse those 36 years ago today. Like man y people i'n the tri -county area, Cundiff · knew some of the victims and dealing with the loss remain s as difficult now as 1t was then. "I think that just like 9/11. it changed the world ," he said . "It changed .Maso n County. They can build all the bridges they want, but Mason Co~nty will never be , the same . "I always heard that Chief Cornstalk left his <:urse on Mason County. But I don't believe in ctu>es. I think this wa; an act of God" Cundiff added. Following his employment at the armory, Cundiff joined Ameri can Electric Power and ret ired on July 12. 2002. A Mason native.

I Bengals back in first Prep Scoreboard place in AFC North Boys Basketball Lakeside Danbury 65, Castalia MargEuena 51 CINCINNATI (AP) - Jon Kitna wouldn't tolerate a downcast locker room. The Ben11als pulled off a win like no other in franchise history, positiomng themselves to move back into first place Sunday. As they trudged off the frosty field, they smiled very little and said even less. Kitna quickly reminded them that a 41-38 victory over the San Francisco 49ers represented a breakthrough. At 8-6, they're guaranteed that this won't be yet another losing season. . And, when Baltimore lost a few hours later. they got back a share of first place in the AFC North with only two games to go. A dour locker room? No way. " I just wanted to make sure they understood that we did win the game," · said Kitna, who threw two touchdown passes. "They were a little solemn in there. That 's a big win for us. We didn't play our best, but the bottom line is winning." They didn't even come close to their best on defense. giving up 502 yards and 31 first downs. But. for the first time in their 36-year history, the Bengals won a game while givi ng up 38 points. "For the most part, in the second half they dominated," said linebacker Kevin Hardy, who returned a fumble for a ftrst-half touchdown. "It 's disappointing . It was a rough afternoon. "We won. That's all I can take away from it." The 49ers (6-8) headed home the way they have all seasonunable to explain another bad day in someone else's place. It was fitting that the defending NFC West champions were eliminated from contention far away from home. They've played seven. games on the road this season. and lost all of them. Not even an extra sens.e of resolve could change the outcome. "The guys were intense," defensive end Chidi Ahanotu said. "We were excited and barking on the sideline and having a good time. The offense responded to it, the defense didn't." That's how it's !lone all season long. Whenever the 49ers leave home, the mistakes multiply and one phase of the team has a bad day, dragging them down. "We've been looking for that answer all season long," said Jeff Garcia, who completed 26 of 33 passes for 344 yards and led a fourth-quarter comeback. "Somehow we need to show ur, on the same page on the same day, the offense and the defense. ' The Bengals took advantage of three fumbles and put the game in the hands of two offensive players who share the same last name but couldn't be more different. Rudi Johnson took over for an ill Corey Dillon and ran for 17 4 yards and a pair of second-half touchdowns. He also caught an onside kick in the closing seconds to clinch it. "I got into a groove in the third quarter, and I was able to stay in it forthe nest of the game," said the soft-spoken Johnson, who had 163 yards in the second half. Showboat receiver Chad Johnson made the game's signature play - one that he hopes will rival the NFL's most infamous signature play. After his I Ocyard touchdown catch on the Bengals' first possession, he ran out of the end zone and retrieved a preprinted sign stored behind a snow drift. · Johnson, who has repeatedly been tined by the league for uniform violations and touchdown celebrations, then held up the orange sign that read: "Dear NFL: Please don 't fine me again." "All I had to do was just score atthat end and I'd be all right," he said. "I was trying to catch the Sharpie thing. I don "t know how close the sign was to the Sharpie." Last season, 49ers receiver Terrell Owens was fined for pulling a pen out of his sock and autographing a ball after a touchdown. On Sunday, Owens scored a touchdown on a 58yard reception, then crouched and flipped a little snow up into the stands. Chad Johnson wasn't impressed with the comeback. "That's what he did?" Johnson said. "Man, that's rude." Red men from Page 6 13 points and grabbed 15 rebounds for the Cougars (7-4, 1-0 AMC South). "We didn't have anybody defend (Dunn) all night," said Thomas. Matt Simpson led the Red men (6-4, 0-1) with 16 points off the bench, iocluding nine points during a three minute span in the second half that kept Rio in the lead. "Matt Simpson came in and kind of sparked us ," said Thomas. "He got a couple of baskets and showed some aggressiveness." . Seth Deerfie ld added 14 points for Rio Grande , while Sean Plummer scored 13 points. Deerfield and Plummer also hauled down 10 boards each. Kris Wilson had . three 3-point goals for nine points . The Redmen 'regained the lead with 45 seconds on the clock on a driving lay-up by Deerfield, but 20 seconds later, Mount Vernon 's Ryan Seesholtz found himself all alone inside as his lay-up tied the game and helped force the OT. In overtime, neither team scored for the first 2:30 of the five minute period .

RSVP Seniors in Schools program. About 250 third graders in Eastern, Meigs and Southern participated in a special holiday project where each student created a beautiful Christmas tree ornament to take home. Working on blocks of wood and using a hammer and nails the youngsters make indentations or holes in gold-colored jar lids to create a design, usually a star. Once the design was completed, then backing with an extended lace edge was attached along with a red ribbon loop to serve as a tree hanger. lin punching is one of several pioneer skills taught by the RSVP volunteers to the younger generation during the regular school year. An emphasis of the Seniors in Schools program is to acquaint th ird graders with life style and skills of a century ago along with a history of Meigs County. This is done through study books prepared by senior volunteers as well as trips to mu se ums and historic landmarks. The program is financed through a special federal grant written by Diana Coates, RSVP director. Supplies for projects. transportation for outings, and mileage for the volunteers are handled with grant momes. -• ·-.._,_,..... ..
