In the latest ava ilable stati sti cs. Ohio had a statewide poverty rate of II pe rcent in 19'1<J, with Meigs County's poverty rate set at 19.4 percent of the population . The perce nt age represents aboul 4,500 people out of a countywide population ofabout 23.000. The U.S. Census Bureau uses a set of money income thre sholds that vary by family size and composition to determine pov erty. According 10 the Census Bureau, if a family's total income is less than that family 's threshold , !hen that famil y, and every individual in it, is considered to be living in poverty. The poverly thres holds do nol vary geographically and th ey are adjusted for inflation each yea r. The officia l poverty defin ilion counts money income before taxes and does no t in.:ludc capital gains and non -cas h benefit> - such a> public housing. Medicaid and food stamps. For those people 65 or o lder, \he thres hold was $5.947 in I'J 89. For' a family of four with two re lated children under 18 years of age. the thre shold was $12.575. The pover· ty thres hold was about $8,600 for those people 65 or older in I'J99. For that same family of four, the lhreshold was about $ 16,900. According to the U.S. Census Burea u, 9.9 percent of the e lderly nationwide were below Ihe· poverty line in 1999. down from 12 .8 percent in 1989 and 25.3 percent in 1969. Even though the poverty rate fo r the elderl y has been· turned around . the fi nancial future of the elderl y is nol necessarily stable or sec ure. The elderly are living longer, medi cal costs are rising, and the prospects of se ni ors needin g long· term medical care are threatening their finan cial sec urity.

She has been a member for marty years. Thursday, the six remain· ing active members of the club, organized in 1936, held a final meeting at the Rock Springs United Methodist Church. They were there to carry out a project of preparing Christmas· trays of cookies ana candies for shut-ins in the community - something the club has done every year for more than 50 yems. They were delivered by members later in the day. For many it was a day of "remembering when ... " · Member.; chatted ·about aciivities of years .rast and about longtime members now counted among the shut-ins, as they filled the trays assembly-line .fashion with homemade cookies and candies. Phyllis Skinner, who joined the club in 1956, commented on how much she had enjoyed the social aspects of getting together and how much she had learned about health. A part of every meeting was devol- ed to readings or a discussion of some health issue. She is one of the three over-80 • members who remain active. The other two are> Frances Goeglein and Dorothy letTers. "The fellowship has been great," said Nancy Morris who moved from Meigs County several yems ago but has driven nearly every month from Hamden to attend the meetings. While Thursday was the last meeting of the 66.-yearold club, the organization has a history worth remembering. ll was in spring of ' 36 that the club was organized as <m outgrowth of a class i.n home hygiene and care of the sick taught by the late Nellie Bing. The Great Depression was in full swing, jobs· and money were scarce, a WPA program was being organized, and Bing. a registered nurse, saw the need for better health education in Meigs County. . At that time there was no public health nurse in the county and since Bing had experience in the lield, th~ Meigs County Public Health Association <UTanged lor her to leach several ch~ses in the county. The course at Rock Springs was held at the home of the late Nettie Collins and about 16 women enrolled. They were among the tirst meinbers of the Rock' Springs Better Health Club. Dues collected at the meet· ings went to equip a linen chest of sheets, pillowcases and lowels lo be loaned to families who might have sickness in their homes. But it soon became apparent that many families were too proud to use supplies belonging to the· club, so il was decided to selllhe linens and put the money in a fund to help others. Numerous projects have been carried out over the years. At one time, tirst aid supplies were provided to schools. Members have · served canteens at the blood· mobile, raised money for the fire depattn\ents and emergency squads, donating loys for hospi,talized children. contributed to numerous health organizations, and remembered shut-ins and aged resident s on special occasions and holidays. The number of projects has decreased over the years as the ·membership has declined, but for the few remaining members. their enthusiasm showed no signs of diminishing - not even as they prepared the las\ trays of Christmas cookies and candies to be del ivered lo shut-in s from the Rock Springs Better Health Club.

Tom Schmidlin, who researches severe weather, sug · gests that if you anen 't near a sturdy building or other shelter, you should get in your car. buckle up and drive to something that would act as shelter. "Ditches are outside, and outside is dangerous during a severe thunderstorm . ... A person is exposed to flying debris, lightning," said Schmidlin, chairman of the Kent State geography department Schmidlin is challenging guidelines of the National Weather Service and other groups that advocate getting out of cars or mobile homes and lying in a ditch if no shelter is nearby. "A person lying in a ditch is stuck in a bad situation, but in a vehicle you have the opportunity to move to a sturdy shelter," he said. A spokesman for the National Weather Service said Tuesday that the agency is reviewing Schmidlin's study, which appears in the December issue of the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society.

"Jackass: The Movie," which opened in October, is based on the MTV show of the same name.

The film is rated · R for "dangerous, sometimes extremely crude stunts, lan!luage and nudity," accordmg to the Motion Picture Association of America. The TV show, which still airs in late-night · reruns, drew criticism that it encouraged dangerous behavior.

Architect Richard Meier, who designed the Getty Museum in Los Angeles and is a member of one of the new teams, said buildings cover only one-fourth of the trade center site in his plan. The plan includes a floating "memorial plaza" on the Hudson River and a park with 2,800 small lights representing the victims of last year's terrorist a!tack. A redevelopment official who spoke on condition of anony mity said several of the plans include what would be the tallest towers in the world . Malaysia 's Petronas Twi n Towers, at 1,483 feet, are now the world's tallest. All of the plans include a memorial to the victims. One plan places it on top of a building. while another incorporates a sunken garden in tribute tO the dead. A memorial design will be chosen in a separate intematipnal contest next year. The Lower Manhattan J)evelopmenl Corp., the agency created to lead the redevelopment effort, and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which owns the land. said after months of infighting that they will work together to choose a design for the trade center site by Jan. 31. The design teams were selected from 407 submissions. The finalists include architects from Berlin, London, Amsterdam, Tokyo, New York and Los Angeles.

In extreme cases it can simply overwhelm the body until organ s cease functioning. It can also cause necrottzmg fasciitis, a deadly flesh-eating disease. Malone said preliminary autopsy results showed no indication that Zavala had the flesh-eating strain of the bacteria. Even before Zavala's death, Marine officials decided to 'give antibiotics to about 3,500 recruits and instructors as a precaution.

WASHINGTON (AP) New claims for unemployment benefits dropped last week, but even with the decline the level oflayoffs was still high . and suggested that . the job market was sluggish, reflecting companies' con· cerns about the uneven eco· nomic recovery. , The Labor Department ·reported Thursday that new claims for jobless benefits fell by a seasonally adjusted 11,000 to 433,000 for the work week ending Dec. 14. Yet, even with the drop, claims remained above the 400,000 mark, a level associated with a lackluster job market. The decline , .which was smaller than analysts were predicting, came after new claims shot up by 86,000 in the previou~ week, lhe biggest one-week gain since the work week ending July 25, 1992. But private economi sts and Labor Department analysts cautioned not to read too much into the jump, saying it was exaggerated by difficulties adjusting for seasonal factors. The more stable four-week moving average of claims. which smoothes out weekly fluctuations, rose last week to 400,750. the . hi ghest level since the begi nning of November. And, the number of unem· ployed people continuing to draw jobless benefits also went up by 229,000 to 3.5 mil· lion for the work week ending Dec. 7, the most recent period '. ' . for which the data is available. The economic recovery has been advancing this year. but in fits and starts, an environ· ment that has made businesses wary about making big commitments in hiring and in capital investment. Fears about a war with Iraq, the turbulent stock market arid other economic uncertainties have weighed heavily on compa· nies and made workers who still have jobs anxious about keepi ng them. President Bush recentl y said he wams Ihe new Congress to extend . unemployment insur" ance benefits for jobless work· ers soon after it convenes next month. Extended federal aid for the jobl ess runs out Dec. 28. , Cong~ess last March approved a 13-week extension in federal unemployment aid. That extension is to run out for peo· pie who have exhausted the 26 weeks of paymems they typi· cally receive through slates. Efforts to continue the benefits fe.JI v ictim to parti san wrangling between Senate Democra(s and House Republicans in late November 's final days of the last congressional session. Democrati c leaders had urged Bush to ask House Republicans to pass the more generous Senate extension plan. The White House remained on the sideli nes throughout.
