Post and Courier, on C8S' re-eWJ!udlion of election coverage: CBS' announcement recently that it will "overhaul" its election coverage presumably will minimize chances that its flawed "reporting" on Election Night 2000 could be repeated.... Rival networks vow similar self-corrective measures, including verifYing exit-poll projection results wit~ multiple sources and waiting until all polls are closed in a particular state before declaring a winner in that state. Waiting until all polls are clc;~sed nationally would be an even more effective reforin.... Though George W Bush did eventually prevail, the networks' election-night debacle clearly demanded changes. CBS is correct to take steps designed to avoid any recurrence of the embarrassment it suffered when ,anchor Dan Rather's "take that to the bank" guarantee of any and :ill projections was proved farcical. · • The 'IWsa (Okla.) World, on counting the votes: Oh, the irony. Two companies have been hired to recount the Florida ballots and both firms are based in - get this - Chicago. Tl)e Land of Lincoln. And the Land ofDead Man Voting. I Many political experts have long charged that John F. Kennedy would not have won the 1960 election witho'\t the help of thenChicago Mayor Richard Daley (and maybe a few Chicago mobsters) who coqjured up enough cemetery voters to swing Chicago to Kennedy. . Others insist that defeated Republican candidate Richard Nixon dropped his protest of the election because he knew that any recount in the state would turn up similar irregularities in heavily Republican southern .Illinois. That history in no way should reflect on the recount in Florida. It's merely interesting. 1Wo groups of media organizations - the Tribune Co. newspapers along with the Washington Po!t, Wall Stn:et Journal, NewYork Times and CNN and the Miami Herald - have hired the two Chicago firms to make a recount, which will have no legal standing. The first group hired the National Opinion Research Center, located at the University of Chicago, to inspect all 180,000 Florida ballots on which no choice for president - or two choices - were counted by machines in all 67 counties. The Herald hired the accounting and consulting firm of BOO Seidman to check the 60,000 undervote ballots - but not the 120,000 overvote ballots- statewide. This count will not decide who won and you can pick wl)ichever count total you wish. It's doubtful that both will draw the same conclusion. And the debate will continue. But the tallying should be completed by the end of March. And it should be thorough. One thing those folks in Chicago can do is count all the votes.

Post and Courier, on C8S' re-eWJ!udlion of election coverage: CBS' announcement recently that it will "overhaul" its election coverage presumably will minimize chances that its flawed "reporting" on Election Night 2000 could be repeated.... Rival networks vow similar self-corrective measures, including verifYing exit-poll projection results wit~ multiple sources and waiting until all polls are closed in a particular state before declaring a winner in that state. Waiting until all polls are clc;~sed nationally would be an even more effective reforin.... Though George W Bush did eventually prevail, the networks' election-night debacle clearly demanded changes.

World, on counting the votes: Oh, the irony. Two companies have been hired to recount the Florida ballots and both firms are based in - get this - Chicago. Tl)e Land of Lincoln. And the Land ofDead Man Voting. I Many political experts have long charged that John F. Kennedy would not have won the 1960 election witho'\t the help of thenChicago Mayor Richard Daley (and maybe a few Chicago mobsters) who coqjured up enough cemetery voters to swing Chicago to Kennedy. . Others insist that defeated Republican candidate Richard Nixon dropped his protest of the election because he knew that any recount in the state would turn up similar irregularities in heavily Republican southern .Illinois. That history in no way should reflect on the recount in Florida. It's merely interesting. 1Wo groups of media organizations - the Tribune Co. newspapers along with the Washington Po!t, Wall Stn:et Journal, NewYork Times and CNN and the Miami Herald - have hired the two Chicago firms to make a recount, which will have no legal standing. The first group hired the National Opinion Research Center, located at the University of Chicago, to inspect all 180,000 Florida ballots on which no choice for president - or two choices - were counted by machines in all 67 counties. The Herald hired the accounting and consulting firm of BOO Seidman to check the 60,000 undervote ballots - but not the 120,000 overvote ballots- statewide. This count will not decide who won and you can pick wl)ichever count total you wish. It's doubtful that both will draw the same conclusion. And the debate will continue. But the tallying should be completed by the end of March. And it should be thorough. One thing those folks in Chicago can do is count all the votes.

BY NICK Mci.AUGHUN a · ', What does it take to be wrestler? . .Otdy those who have tried know just how 1>hysically and mentally trying the sport is. In my three years, I have seen a dozen people ' who have tried and have quit, not because they didn't have the tools or didn't like the sport, but because they couldn't handle the practices. A lot of my friends cannot believe how hard our practices are. · Even though other people can't understand, wrestlers understand that to be a top : 'Performer o~r practices must be as hard as ~ they can be, because wrestling is undeniably -, the most physically challenging sport that ~you can be involved in ... ever. Anyone wlio ~has watched a good, competitive match ~ knows that. · . : Because of the physical effects wrestling has ~ on your body, you must prepare with a very ~ physical practice. Typically, we start practice at' ~ about 3:30 with about a mile-and-a-half run. ·Afterwards, we roll out and clean our mats. After we get good and stretched out, we do pushups, sic-ups, mountain climbers, flutter kicks, up downs, and spin drills. Mter that, Coach Bauer, Joey Rupe, and myself demonstrate to the team moves such as take downs, rides from the top, and reversols from the bottom so that with practice they can learn and then wrestle as competitively as possible. Next comes the hardest part ... the mental aspect. Not only do you need to try to stor~ the knowledge of moves and strategy, but you also have co' have die will' power co· take care of your body. When you wrestle, you can't go home and just eat everything you see. You ' have to have·s'ome self-control. Many people believe that wrestlers go for three or four days at a time without eating. This is not true. I do admit that sometimes we have co go overnight the night before a meet without eating, but physically that will not hurt you as long as what you do eat is good for you.· If you're smart, you can control your weight and that requires will power. You're probably wondering why anybody would want to wrestle. When you wrestle a good, hard match and ·win, you wouldn't believe the feeling that you gee when you sit down and just soak it in. The more you win, the harder you want to work so you can win even more. This is the one thing that drives a wrestler. Meigs wrestling has a long history of producing good teams and some.great individual wrestlers. Our team this year is no exception. When we get all of our guys together, we are · a very tough team to beat. . Wrestling is the greatest sport o( all time dating back to the Olympics. It is my favorite sport, and as far as I'm concerned, all the pain and sacrifice ·are worth it. Now I would like to leave you with one final thought, it's not the fall that hurts, it's the sudden stop at the end. My name is Patrick Litschke, and I'm from Bedin, Germany. r came to America for the first time on Sept. 2 and will probably leave the first week of July. I am 17 years old, a senior ai Meigs High School, and am living with my host family. the Whittingtons. School is very different here. It's a lot more fun here, and the teachers are better. You ,can talk to them about every thing, joke with them, and classes are not as strict and boring. I play for the Meigs basketball team, getting to play a couple minutes pe~ game. Regardless, I won't give up and quit playing even though we've lost all of our games this season. The first thing I saw when I came to America was Chicago, and it really impressed me. I am from a big city with more than 3.5 million people so I really loved it. Pomeroy is very dilf'ir~ ent from Berlin and Chicaao. Not even 6000 people live here and for me that is kind of boring. The next bigger town is forty-five miles away from here, and I don't go there because I am not allowed to drive. So I always have to depend on somebody else for transportation. In GerllWly. you need to be 18 or older to drive so I will try to get my driver's license over here. One real positive tJUng is that the people in Pomeroy are mqch friendlier than the people · in the cities. My new family and friends have taught me a lot of things I've never done before, and I appreciate that. I really love my family, and I hope .that I can come back whenever I want. All in all, I like America. So far, I haven't seen much of it, but I like what I see.

Though the average bids ofS69 a megawatt were higher than the $55 officials had hoped for, they were still far lower chan the S600 th e state has sometimes had to pay on the open market.

BY NICK Mci.AUGHUN a · ', What does it take to be wrestler? . .Otdy those who have tried know just how 1>hysically and mentally trying the sport is. In my three years, I have seen a dozen people ' who have tried and have quit, not because they didn't have the tools or didn't like the sport, but because they couldn't handle the practices. A lot of my friends cannot believe how hard our practices are. · Even though other people can't understand, wrestlers understand that to be a top : 'Performer o~r practices must be as hard as ~ they can be, because wrestling is undeniably -, the most physically challenging sport that ~you can be involved in ... ever. Anyone wlio ~has watched a good, competitive match ~ knows that. · . : Because of the physical effects wrestling has ~ on your body, you must prepare with a very ~ physical practice. Typically, we start practice at' ~ about 3:30 with about a mile-and-a-half run. ·Afterwards, we roll out and clean our mats. After we get good and stretched out, we do pushups, sic-ups, mountain climbers, flutter kicks, up downs, and spin drills. Mter that, Coach Bauer, Joey Rupe, and myself demonstrate to the team moves such as take downs, rides from the top, and reversols from the bottom so that with practice they can learn and then wrestle as competitively as possible. Next comes the hardest part ... the mental aspect. Not only do you need to try to stor~ the knowledge of moves and strategy, but you also have co' have die will' power co· take care of your body. When you wrestle, you can't go home and just eat everything you see. You ' have to have·s'ome self-control. Many people believe that wrestlers go for three or four days at a time without eating. This is not true. I do admit that sometimes we have co go overnight the night before a meet without eating, but physically that will not hurt you as long as what you do eat is good for you.· If you're smart, you can control your weight and that requires will power. You're probably wondering why anybody would want to wrestle. When you wrestle a good, hard match and ·win, you wouldn't believe the feeling that you gee when you sit down and just soak it in. The more you win, the harder you want to work so you can win even more. This is the one thing that drives a wrestler. Meigs wrestling has a long history of producing good teams and some.great individual wrestlers. Our team this year is no exception. When we get all of our guys together, we are · a very tough team to beat. . Wrestling is the greatest sport o( all time dating back to the Olympics. It is my favorite sport, and as far as I'm concerned, all the pain and sacrifice ·are worth it. Now I would like to leave you with one final thought, it's not the fall that hurts, it's the sudden stop at the end. My name is Patrick Litschke, and I'm from Bedin, Germany. r came to America for the first time on Sept. 2 and will probably leave the first week of July. I am 17 years old, a senior ai Meigs High School, and am living with my host family. the Whittingtons. School is very different here. It's a lot more fun here, and the teachers are better. You ,can talk to them about every thing, joke with them, and classes are not as strict and boring. I play for the Meigs basketball team, getting to play a couple minutes pe~ game. Regardless, I won't give up and quit playing even though we've lost all of our games this season. The first thing I saw when I came to America was Chicago, and it really impressed me. I am from a big city with more than 3.5 million people so I really loved it. Pomeroy is very dilf'ir~ ent from Berlin and Chicaao. Not even 6000 people live here and for me that is kind of boring. The next bigger town is forty-five miles away from here, and I don't go there because I am not allowed to drive. So I always have to depend on somebody else for transportation. In GerllWly. you need to be 18 or older to drive so I will try to get my driver's license over here. One real positive tJUng is that the people in Pomeroy are mqch friendlier than the people · in the cities. My new family and friends have taught me a lot of things I've never done before, and I appreciate that. I really love my family, and I hope .that I can come back whenever I want. All in all, I like America. So far, I haven't seen much of it, but I like what I see.

And once they do hire them a lot of performance measures are higher than we expected," said Harry Holzer, a professor ·o f public policy at Georgetown · University, who was co-author of the report with Michael Stoll. "But a lot ·of these jobs are likely to disappear in a recession, and that looks like it might happen sooner rather than later." The two men prepared the study for the Public Policy lnstitute of California. lt found ·t hat more than 3,000 employers surveyed _ in Los Angeles, Chicago, Cleveland and Milwaukee during 1998 an~ · 1999 said they were willing ~ hire welfare recipients. Between 30 percent and 40 percent of those surveyed said they hall hired welfare recipients over the past two years, most frequently in clerical and service position" The study found that abotit two-thirds of the jobs filled by welfare recipients were full time, paid an average of $7 an hou~ and provided health insuranc~ plans. It said employers founll the performance of half of a!I welfare workers hired compara" ble to other \vorkers: A range rif .25 percent to 40 percent were ranked better than the average workers, depending upon the city studied. The authors said just 10 percent to 25 percent of welfare workers were considered worse than non-welfare hires, with pri~ mary complaints being high · turnover, poor performance and absenteeism linked to child care and transportation issues. · · Rae~ and education levels often affected a welfare recipi~ ents chances of being hired, the study found, with minority welfare recipients hired less frequently than whites. High school dropouts also did not far~ well. 8·0 12-2 8·1 11-4 6--3 7-7 4-4 8·8 ' 1-7 5·9 0-8 3-11 Hocking DIVIIIon TVC ALL •Eastern 8.() 11·3 Federal Hocking 5-4 5·8 Southern , 4·5 8·8 Waterford 4-3 5·7 Trimble 2-6 2·11 .

The Washington Redskins cornerback accepted a nonguaranteed minor league contract Wednesday to play for the Cincinnati Reds' Triple-A team in Louisville. He'll report to · Sarasota, Fla., along with other Reds minor leaguers on March 4. Sanders' latest flirtation with his ·other sport came as a surprise. The Redskins were unaware of the signing, spokesman Karl Swanson said. The outfielder seemed to have closed the door on baseball when he turned his back on the Reds last season, refusing a promotion to the majors . Sanders was under a 1ninor league contract when general manager Jim Bowden tried to bring him up to the majors as an injury fill-in last year. Sanders refused, saying he was going to ' concentrate on being a full-time football player. · Despite their ~ifferences, Bowden is one o( Sanders' biggest fans in baseball. He didn't return a telephone message Wednesday. Because Sanders had filed for free agency and the latest contract was agreed to after a Dec. 7 deadline, it will be scrutinized by the conunissioner's office.

My . first class was at the Christchurch Bridge.Club, where 47 people came to hear me talk about blocking and unblocking plays. This deal caught out the great· est number of declarers. How would you try to bring home thtee no-trump after West leads his fol!rlh-highest heart? · · I was worried that some Norths would open two no-trump, which usually shows '20-22 points in New Zealand. (That hand is worth about 20.5 points,) But everyone counted only their high-card points and started with one spade (which allowed ' me to discuss upgrading with aces and kings and a decent five-card suit) . Given the heart lead into South's Q-10 tenace, declarer apparently has seven top tricks: two spades, four hearts and one diamond. And t~e club suit pro- . vides an ideal source of tricks. Yet South must watch his entries. If he runs the opening lead to his heart I 0 and drives out the club ace, how will he get back to his hand to cash those club winners? The answer is that he won't (unless West suicidally wins the first club trick). South must sacrifice one heart trick in order to get four club tricks. He should put up dummy 's heart king at trick one and immediately attack clubs. Then he will collect at least I 0 tricks: two spades, three hearts, one diamond and four clubs. It is good business to lose one trick if you get three in return. ·1THURSDAY .......... _ 12 lo mllllklll 11Ac!NU 23Paellcloot 45Emperor 47 Lilian 41 sr,trlt lamp 41 C nclnnotl boll club . 50 Bikini tope 52 Compall pt. 54 Conceh CELEBRITY CIPHER -In tho..,.,., ...,..tor by Lula Cempoa ColtbtLty CLphtr cr;piOg<lmt ... - " " " ' quoilllonl by 111110<11 - 'P · e.cn TodaY'• clllfl: S «/ualt K BXPWS MPJPWL P'K NPBX Y P R M R L·P I B BXF YF T P W IIIObiiOr.

My . first class was at the Christchurch Bridge.Club, where 47 people came to hear me talk about blocking and unblocking plays. This deal caught out the great· est number of declarers. How would you try to bring home thtee no-trump after West leads his fol!rlh-highest heart? · · I was worried that some Norths would open two no-trump, which usually shows '20-22 points in New Zealand. (That hand is worth about 20.5 points,) But everyone counted only their high-card points and started with one spade (which allowed ' me to discuss upgrading with aces and kings and a decent five-card suit) . Given the heart lead into South's Q-10 tenace, declarer apparently has seven top tricks: two spades, four hearts and one diamond. And t~e club suit pro- . vides an ideal source of tricks. Yet South must watch his entries. If he runs the opening lead to his heart I 0 and drives out the club ace, how will he get back to his hand to cash those club winners? The answer is that he won't (unless West suicidally wins the first club trick). South must sacrifice one heart trick in order to get four club tricks. He should put up dummy 's heart king at trick one and immediately attack clubs. Then he will collect at least I 0 tricks: two spades, three hearts, one diamond and four clubs. It is good business to lose one trick if you get three in return. ·1THURSDAY .......... _ 12 lo mllllklll 11Ac!NU 23Paellcloot 45Emperor 47 Lilian 41 sr,trlt lamp 41 C nclnnotl boll club . 50 Bikini tope 52 Compall pt. 54 Conceh CELEBRITY CIPHER -In tho..,.,., ...,..tor by Lula Cempoa ColtbtLty CLphtr cr;piOg<lmt ... - " " " ' quoilllonl by 111110<11 - 'P · e.cn TodaY'• clllfl: S «/ualt K BXPWS MPJPWL P'K NPBX Y P R M R L·P I B BXF YF T P W IIIObiiOr.

' · He'll send the plan to Congress next week, and to bUild support, he met with religious leaders Thursday night at the home of Archbishop Theodore McCarrick, leader ofWashington-area Roman Catholics. On Friday, Bush was capping his first week in office with another pitch for his education plan, summoning 17 governors to the White House. Bush also was looking On during the ceremonial swearing-in of Cohn Powell as secretary of state and Donald Rumsfeld as defense secretary. Both were officially sworn in Saturday,just after Bush was inaugurated. And following White House tradition, the president was hosting newly elected members of Congress for a get-acquaint- . ed session. Just as his education plan indudes a controversial voucher provision, battle lines are being drawn ov~t :Bush's ,~faith-based action" plan. .' Critics say its programs blur the constifUtional lines separating church and state. They also say that religious groups cannot really take the place of government programs. Even some churches ' are . 'Y>I)' of strings that might be attached to money from the federal purse. ''Faith-based programs, no question about them, they do work;' said Ted Fuson, pastor of the Culpeper, , Va., Baptist Church, which is active in a variety of programs offering grants, food, clothing and furniture to the needy. . Still, Fuson said he is not . interested in taking federal money. "Eventually, somebody's going to want to have a say in how those funP, are used, and we're not going to give them that freedom;• he said. 'l;'he new president says religious groups must be part of the solution to society's ills. "A compassi9nate ,society is one which 'recognizes the great power of faith;' Bush told reponers Thursday.
