The inmates are sent letters asking if they want to participate and to provide the names and addresses of their children. Colvin said he initially hoP.ed the program could help chtldren all over northeast Ohio, but the list of inmates numbered in the thousands.

"They didn' t say much at all on the way down," Mirbel said. "After seeing their mother. they tulked all way home. I could see the sunshine co n11 ng fro m their eyes." .

Huuon Residents in Bethlehem have festive Christmas gathering amid gloom of Israeli restrictions BETHLEHEM, West Bank (APl - The official theme of the parade was political, but most reside nt.s of Bethlehem gave in to the Christmas spirit during a festive gat hering in . the spot where Chr istianity holds angels anno unced Jesus' birth. About 3,000 people carried balloons, ate cotton candy and donned Santa outfits for the parade o n Thu rsday, seemingly undeterred by the abse nce of tourists and the gloom of life under Israeli restrictions. Speakers on a van blared Chri stmas carols in Engli sh and Arabic, and families and roreign workers gathered to take part and watch. Decorati ons we re sparse in the tow n locked in a strugg le with Israe l that has deci mated the econ omy and fri ghtened touri sts away. Politi cal bann ers declarin g "No land , No future, No Chri stm as trees" were di splayed prominently. Yet, few people carried signs, fa voring protest Mickey Mouse balloons instead. Children in Santa outfits played in nearby ruins and Pale stinian scouts f!layed "Jingle Bells" on bagptpes. " It is a very appropriate place to begin such a march, from the birthplace of r.eace.

Disposing of Christmas trees, poinsettias Hal Kneen • What shou ld a homeowner do with a cut ChrisJ.mas tree ·after Christmas'' : After remo ving all tinsel ·and ornaments, recycle the rree around the house. If you have a ch ipper, run it through arid use 1l1e chips as mulch in the late spring season. . If you have a pond. we ight it with a couple of cement blocks and toss it into the pond fOr smaller fish to hide in when predators approach. If you are a bird watcher, tie the tree to a stake next to a bird feeder for birds to use as shelter from the wind and predators. Cut o!lthe boughs and place them over those perennial tlower beds to protect them from severe winter weather. It' all else fail s, cut it up and use as kindling for outdoor fires when warming up after a skating party or snowball fight. Remember that the sap in the evergreen tree may create creosote in the chimneys. Also sap causes sparks so minimize indoor · use in the firep lace . . Man y homeowners that use a li ve balled and burlapped C hri stmas tree need to be reminded to pl ant th e tree now' Remove it >oo n after Christmas, as every day in side a dry home reduces its ability to retain it s needles. Re-acclimate the tree to the cold weather by placing it in a protected pl ace until planted. Use the north or east side of a home or garage. Insulate the root ball of soil from freezing wi th 111lllch (bark, sawdust or sand). Hopefully your tree hole has been pre-dug and filled in with a backfill of leaves and soil. Remove the loose soil and leave mulch from the hole. Plant the tree just an inch or two hi gher than the surroundin g ground. Once the root . ball is placed in the hole, roll back the burlap so it may be buried under the soil. Mulch in the tree with three to four inches of muleh after a good watering. Stake your newly planted tree to reduce wind damage. In the warm days of winter, water your new tree with one or two buckets of warm water. What should you do with your Christmas poinsettia? If you are an adventurous green "thumber,'' attempt to save the plant for next fall. My adv ice is to pitch it and buy one of the 60 million grown each year. If you want to keep it another year, keep the plant in the brightest window until late April and water very sparingly. Start to tertilize your plant and cut the plant back around Mother's Day to about six inches. Repot it into a larger pot, approximately two to four inches Iarger. New growth should emerge and you need to place it outside to " grow throughout the summer. Kee p i~ fertilized. In early September, cut it back to six inche s again and allow the plant to re-emerge from the stem. Allow only five to seven new stems to .sprout . Remove all others. Then starting in late September. bring the plant into a well-lit warm room. Cover the plant for a minimum of 12 hours each night for the next six weeks . Poinsettias are short day plants and won' t form colored bracts if given more than twelve hours of sunlight. By early November your poinsettia should be showing colored bracts. If not, pitch and just buy a new one at the local florist or plant store. DEAR ABBY: l was wondering if you had any advice for a teennger (who is 16) about telling htjr parents that she and her ooyfriend (of nine months) have become sex uall y active? ' Both of her pnrents are really protecti ve, and she is not sure how to break it to them. She know s they have the right to know, and I want to tell them - but how ? ·- AT A LOSS FOR WORDS , IN · LAFAYETTE, LA. DEAR AT A LOSS : "She" should ask her moth er to make an appointment for her wi th a gy necolog·ist because she needs to be put on birth control and also to learn what she needs 10 know about sexuall y tran smitted di seases . It will be a shocker, but it is ·also the tru th. If you axe mat ure enough to be havi ng sex , you must be mature enough to handle the consequences. Anyone who is sexually ac tive must have regular gy necological and/or urological examinations to ensure that she (or he) hasn't ' unkn owi ngly picked up an STD. (To ignore an STD is to risk becoming steril e, and can be fntal.) Please don ' t put this otT. . · DEA R ABBY: Before he met me·, my hu sband , "Stan," was involved with a crazy, alcoholic, se lf-centered woman. "Evelyn" has never been married, but she acts like she is Stan 's exwife. She has never accepted the fact that he married me and not her. She began making frequent crank calls to me at work shortly after the wedding. She foll ows me when l am alone. She has told everyone that Stan is impotent and has slandered my children. She even stol e our family portrait from a studio that di splayed tl. · How can l get thi s Cfazy . woman to leave me alone? l need help. -- STALKED IN NORT' CAROLINA DEl\ I{ STALKED: You ha ve my sy mpathy. She appea rs to be unbalanced. Notify the police that you are being stalked and obtain a re strai ning order. Then notify the phone company about the unwanted call s. If they can be traced to her. it is further proof of her harassment - aml there is a way to block them. DEAR ABBY: l have been dating "Dale" for nearl y two years. I am 32, he JS 29, and he is everything my hu sband wasn' t. Dale is wonderful to me and even more so to my two young daughters. He comforts us when we' re sad. He takes care of us when we're sick. He even handles Doris Swanson Nutrition Facts labeL Four grams of fibeP per serving is considered high in fiber. Make sandwiches with whole grain breads, eat beans and fruits and vegetables with their skins more often. To help prevent osteoporosis, increase your calcium intake ·by eating low-fat yogurt , drinking skim milk, cooking with non-fat dry milk, and eating more lowfat dairy products during the month of September. Broccoli, salmon and sardines are also good sources of calcium. Begin fall by eating more tish. Try to include at ,least two servings of fatty fish (salmon, trout, herring,' etc.) each week in October. The Omega-3 fatty acids found in the fish will help redu ce the risk of heart disease. To start your holiday cooking and baking, modify your old recipes. Use lowfat cooking techniques such as grilling and roasting. To reduce fat in baked products, exchange applesauce for oil. Finish off the year by regul arly exerci sing and limiting high calorie food s. This will not only help you keep unwanted pounds from creeping back on, but it wi II also give you the energy needed to get all of the things done that make up , your busy holiday schedule. 1 In order to enjoy holiday parties, taste just a sample of the foods that are not normally available. There! You ' ve made it throug(J the year, and look how much healthier you are eating!

The Falcons (I 0-3) of the MidAmerican Conference are favored to beat Northwestern of the mighty Big Ten in the Motor City Bowl on Friday. The Wildcats (6-6) could join an extensive list of teams from BCS affil. iated conferences to lose to MAC foes this season. "I think you have to look at us as a decided underdog out there," said Northwestern coach Randy Walker. whose team lost 44- 14 to MAC chamP.ion Miami of Ohio on Sept. 13. 'They've gl'lt a great team, led by a great quarterback in Josh Harris." Harris passed for a school-record 3.427 yards and 24 touchdowns this season, including 357 yards and three TDs in a 27-26 upset of Purdue on Sept. 6.

Long a Chri stmas Day tradition, the Blue-Gray game .• was canceled last year because officials couldn' t line up a sponsor. It had been held 50 miles north in Montgomery since 1938 , matching college seniors from the North (Blue) against those from the South (Gray). Wall ace, who played for Blue offen sive coach Bob Pruett at Marshall , was a late addition to the roster and responded with touchdown runs of 3 and 17 yards in a 3:34 span of the fourth quarter at Troy State's Movie Gallery Veterans Stadium. Wallace arrived in Alabama on Tuesday night to repl ace Southern Illinois running back Tom Koutsos, who hurt his right knee in practice . Representing a program more known for its passers than runners, Wallace capitalized with seven carries for 33 yards. The Blue squad broke a 17all tie early in the fourth on Wallace's 3-yard score.
