Bob Taft denied clemeney again Friday to John W. Byrd Jr., who is scheduled to be execured next week for a slaying 19 years ago. The decision came the day after the U.S. Supreme Court refused· to stop Thesday's execution or hear Byrd's appeal that an accomplice committed the crime. Ohio Public Defender David Bodiker said Friday he had not decided whether to pursue another appeal. However, Amnesty International said · it would appeal to Taft to spare Byrd. The governor is empowered to grant clemency at any time up to t.he ·condemned inmate's death. "The governor has not consented to meet or talk to ... the family of John Byrd, so we're going to try to make that personal contact," said Adam Ortiz, deputy director of the groups Midwest regional office in Chicago. "We're going to hopefully appeal to his conscience." Byrd, 38, is to die by injection for the 1983 murder of Monte Tewksbury, 40, who was stabbed during a robbery of the suburban Cincinnati convenience store where he worked. Tewksbury, a Procter & Gamble Co. employee, was moonlighting to pay for his daughte.r's education. Barring a lastminute court order, Byrd will be taken Byrd Mondar from death row at the Mansfield Correction:il lnstitution to the death house at the Southern Ohio Correctional Faciljty in Lucasville. His execution is scheduled for 10 a.m. Tuesday. , Taft also refused on Sept. 10 to change Byrd's sentence to life in prison. . · The governor said ·f riday he had found no reason to disagree with the courts that had heard the case. "Therefore, I respectfully deny his request for clemency. May God bless the family ·and friends of Monte Tewksbury.': Byrd's mother and sister met with Taft's chief counsel, William Klatt, but the governor did not speak with them, spokesman Joe 1\ndrews said.

Hamilton County Prosecutor Michael Allen, whose office obtained Byrd's conviction, said the time has come for Byrd to face justice. ·"There's reason for optimism in this case. What the Tewksbury family ... has been put through in the last 19 years is reprehensible." Byrd has claimed that he doesn't remember the events of the night of the slaying because he had passed out as a result of drinking and taking drugs. He said evideqce in the case shows he did not stab Tewksbury Byrd had originally chosen the electric chair as his method ·of execution, first scheduled for Sept. 12. He said he wanted to demonstrate the brutality of capital punishment by choosing the chair, which has not been used for an Ohio execution since 1963. However, the Legislature has since banned the chair's use, leaving lethal injection as the sole means of execution in Ohio. Byrd's execution would be only the third in Ohio since 1963. All have taken place in the past three years. Wilford Berry, who waived his appeals and asked the state to execute him for a 1989 murder, was put to death in 1999. Jay D.

The investigations ofEnron's historic collapse and slide into bankruptcy are gathering steam on three fronts: an unprecedented Justice Department criminal task force, half a dozen congressional inquiries and numerous regulatory audits and reviews. A year ago, Enron was flying high with $90-per-share stock . pnces. By October' Enron reported a th ird-quarter loss of$638 million and disclosed a $1.2-billion reduction in shareholder equity. In December, the company sough.t bankruptcy P.rotection and tried to explain how billions in debt were kept off the hooks. Profits had been misstated by $586 million over the past four years. Accounting irregularities, insider trading and pension-law violations are being examined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the Justice and Labor departments. The core of this story is the mugging of the nation's investment system and the failure to protect shareholders and thousands of Enron employees, who lost their savings ' in now worthless stock in the company 401 (k). ...

(Submitted photos) ·:River run: Chilly~ yet popular, rite of spring _.,, MAUMEE (AP) - Each year, about ,mid-March to mid-Aprii, . drivers on '!pterstate '75 over the . Maumee River :pften .do ~ double-take and s!ow down ·to gawk at the thousands of fishermen 'lined shoulder-to-shoulder in the icy ' and often swift water. " The spring run of Lake Erie walleye ):barging up the Maumee River impacts the traffic and a whole lot more in this . : '"~ommimity and surrounding area. Lesser · · runs take place on the Sandusky and Portage rivers, but the wider and deeper ~Maumee attracts about a half miUion : fish, which draw thousands of fishermen "ilressed in waders and winter gear. .·• "There might be a fisherman here and . ·');here the rest of the year, but for the · 1)nost part things are pretty quiet along ?the river until the ruri· starts," said Gary : Lowry, owner of Maumee Tackle, a bait -1hop that is the unofficial headquarters . of the ~all eye run. ~ ;J· "W!ien ' the fis~ get in the river, the · : psherim!n come from all over. Once it : jl~ goi.rlg~ this spawning run is probably . · Jlle .·b~$t', opportunity in· th~ country for • ' J f, • ' the average fisherman to catch a real tro~ phy," Lowry said. ,: A delicate combination of warming water, rising water levels and the walleyes' reaction to light, or photosen~ sitivity, tells the fish ·when it is time to go. Stretches of the river that were devoid of fish one i!ay can be teeming with prized walleye ·!he next. "We've had a pretty mild winter, but for the most part 'tfiat won't have a big effect on i~..The dates don't vary a great deal. It is usually !fum mid-March to mid-April that 't he b'esi fishing is found," said Doug Johnsor'; fisheries biologist for the Division ofWildlife. In January and february, the walleye start to stackup iri'their traditional stag'ing area out in tli~·- take's Maumee Bay. Only about 10 percent of the walleye in Lake Erie will make the run up the river to spawn. . As the water warms and the days get longer, the fish llJOVe up .the rivet:,, concentrating their spawning e.fforis ·in . a several 'mile stretch that runs from the rapids just south 1 of the i•415.J.bridge down stream to .Ewing Island, which is in the middle of the. river between Perrysburg and Maumee. W~lleye prefer the ~~:ravel-strewn bottom found in much of that part of nhe river. "It's not a huge area, but there is ·a lot of room to accommodate many fishermen and the access is great," Lowry said. ~'The~e are parks and public fishing areas on both sides of the river through most of the prime spawning ·grounds. The fishermen can usually get to the fish·, and in the spawning run that ·is the single most critical ·element." , The aggressive and fiercely territorial males or "jack" walleye are the first up the river, and they will usually strike lures cast near them. The larger females that are bloated with eggs move up next, but they are much less interested · ih feeding until their spawning is completed. Because of the masses of fish condenied into relatively small areas, anglers . often foul-hook or snag walleye, but special regulations require that these fish · lie released immediately. . . .· .

Texas Deparonent of Licensing and Regulation Executive Director Bill Kuntz said his decision was based on Tyson's history in the ring and disciplinary action by other states. He noted Tyson's past license suspensions in Nevada and Michigan. "1 made my decision to deny Mr. Tyson a license based on his past behavior in the ring, his unwillingness to follow the basic rules and laws of boxing, and our mandat.e to regulate boxing in the. public interest;' Kuntz said. "In the boxing ring, Mike Tyson is a repeat offender. I have no confidence that his future behavior would differ from his past behavior." Tyson has refused prefight drug tests, ignored 'referees and a.<saulted ring-side law enforcement officials during the last five year.;, Kuntz said. Hector Uribe, Tyson's attorney in Austin, requested an appeal hearing. · · "This is the first round of a multiround fight;' Uribe said. Georgia officials, meanwhile, have granted Tyson's application to fight there. However, the state also requires a promoter's license and a show . '' .

Greenfield Toumship ojfored .equality in pre~ Civil Wclr days In the western part of Greenfield Township in the 1850s there were over 200 African Americans, many of whom seeded in a community that was referred to as Poke Patch. Most of these settlers came to Greenfield Township in the 1840s and were largely farmers. Some of the. families who came to "Old Gallia"' from Virginia were Chavis, Sanders, . Matthews, Craddolph, Stewart, Dungy, Seaton, Cane and Mayo. There Were also a number of families who · were born in Tennessee and among those we would include: Coker, Stewart and Dungy. -,George Arter· was born in North Carolina and William Hayman was born in Connecticut. Poke Patch early bec;une a stop on the Underground Railroad, particularly after abolitionist ironmaster John Campbell had helped to build several iron furnaces in Lawrence County and Gallia Furnace in Gallia County. Campbell allowed furnace wagons to James Sands HISTORY be used to transport runaways. Darleen Innis wrote in 1998: "James Dicher took perhaps 80 runaways to Poke Patch following_a railroad track part way. At a place well l<.nown to him, he and his party left the railroad bed and scrambled over hills and' woods to reach the settlement. Another conductor, William Chavis, brought fugitives to this remote pokeberry field some 30 miles north from Burlington on the Ohio River." "In POke Patch, fugitives were sheltered and-cared for by blacks like John]. Stewart and his. wife who hid them in or near their cabin in Poke Patch." "Poke Patch station is gone. Nature has reclaimed the meadow in the valley near Dirtyface Creek below Negro Creek Road. Cabins that once stood against the demerits · have succumbed t'o them. Time has hidden forever the tangible traces of an active station on the Underground Railroad. There's poetic irony in the hiding. Poke Patch once existed to hide its people, once concealed their spirit for freedom in this ·pokeweed infested spot that gave it its name. Today only the Pokeweed nods its head· of purple berries remembering a place, a people and a struggle long gone." (Innis) These early Poke Patch setders actually became pretty prosperous , on their small farms. There were about 900 whites in Greenfield Township in 1850 compared to about 200 blacks.

(AP) - Black art gal eries and African clothing boutiques are opening near the future site of Bill Clinton's presidential library in the expectation that lots of black tourists will come to pay homage to the man once called "our first black president." The library will not open .until 2004, but the shops on President Clinton Avenue are already enjoying some success thanks to a temporary exhibit of Clinton memorabilia and expansion of the city's River Market district. "Moving down here is about being at the right place 'at the right time," said Deun Shonowo, who sells West African clothing, ceramics and art at her Afrikan de Boutique. "One of the main reasons I moved down here was the library and the TAKING IT ALL IN - Lauren Weems, 10, right, and her clas~ mates view photographs at the Clinton library preyiew e~hlblt In downtown little Rock, Ark. Two years before the Clinton Presidential library Is to open, burgeoning black art galleries and African clothing boutiques In downtown little Rock are signs of the project's anticipated popUlarity among black tourists. (AP Photo/Danny Johnston) Clinton announced in 1997 that he would build his presidential library complex on the south bank of the . from Page Dl institutions within the state. Another factor to consider, if you want to obtain a bachelor's degree or higher, is that you can begin your education at your local community college. Community colleges offer what is referred to as general education classes. These classes, . including subjects such as math, English, communication and science, are required for all students · regardless of major. When the student transfers to a fouryear institution, the remaining classes ·are mostly in the student's major area of study. The decreased tuition rate results in a. very valuable educational savings. Let's do the math. If we take into consideration the decreased tuition rate for the first two years, one could save Melp County's more than i6,000 in tuition costs by attending a community college and then transferring to a public institution. Also, if you eliminate room and board fees for the first two years, the savings can top $15,000. Do not let these potential expenditures deter you from obtaining a college degree. A recent College Board study indicated that almost 60 percent of students currently enrolled in college obtain some form of financial aid to either completely pay for or defer costs. What that means is that the stated rates are not what students and their families have to pay out of pocket. In the weeks to come, we will discuss the types of financial aid available and how we can put college in your future. (Luanne R.

Power of attorney can be limited to specific functions for a certain period, such as. selling stocks or withdrawing money while traveling. A broad document that authorizes each partner to handle almost any siruation in the other's absence is also a consideration. Wills, trusts and life Insurance - It's especially impoitant to share information about wills, trusts and life insurance if either has been married before. There ~ould be restrictions on how some assets may be used and beneficiaries left unchanged by mistake. Most important, make sure each partner knows where to find wills and will be able to easily access it if something were to happen. . Health insurance plans - Most insurance companies will cover care administered in the first 24 to 48 houn of a medical emergency, even if the coverage details have not been sorted out. But the situation isn't as clear with hoJpital visits that are less urgent. If each partner is covered under a difFerent insurance plan, both should be familiarized with . the requirement · "hoops" they may have to jump through. If one spouse has a sudden illness, would the other know which doctor to call first and get an okay for treatment? If not, they risk running up big bills at ·an out-of-network doctor. Business loans - If one spouse owns a business or is a ·parrner in a professional firm, but should know about any personally guaranteed loans. It is critical to be aware ofliabilities since household assets can be hit if the businesses can't repay the loan. - While many don't necessarily 'need to kno.w everything about their spouse's finances, maintaining a working knowledge of the above points can help maintain proper, balanced control over a family's financial affairs.
