Cincy tourism decreases CINCINNATI (AP) - Hotel and motel bookings in southwest Ohio fell sharply during the first half of the year, leading to speculation that recent civil unrest in Cincinnati may have caused some groups to avoid the city. Members of local agencies that track tourism activity and economic development say a call for a boycott of the city hasn't been mentioned ·specifically as a reason for changing travel or convention plans. Nonetheless, they say it's likely that the fallout from the April riots, boycott and a recent spate of violence may have led some potential visitors, including conventioneers, to steer clear of the city. "The civil unrest certainly comes into play," said Mike Wilson, president of the Greater Cincinnati Convention and Visitors Bureau.

Durst had disturbed a yellow-jacket nest while mowing his lawn and was stung several times. Cincy tourism decreases CINCINNATI (AP) - Hotel and motel bookings in southwest Ohio fell sharply during the first half of the year, leading to speculation that recent civil unrest in Cincinnati may have caused some groups to avoid the city. Members of local agencies that track tourism activity and economic development say a call for a boycott of the city hasn't been mentioned ·specifically as a reason for changing travel or convention plans. Nonetheless, they say it's likely that the fallout from the April riots, boycott and a recent spate of violence may have led some potential visitors, including conventioneers, to steer clear of the city. "The civil unrest certainly comes into play," said Mike Wilson, president of the Greater Cincinnati Convention and Visitors Bureau.

' Until there are guarantees) death penalty should be halted • The Reporter, Lebanon, Ind. , on tire deatlr pe..alty: It's time for a nation-wide moratorium on the death penalty. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor said th at, " If statistics are any indication, the system may well be allowing some innocent defendants to be executed." ... O'Connor suggested that lawyers who represent capital offense defendants meet minimum standards. In Indiana, such attorneys are said to be " death qualified," because they meet certain requirements. Death penalty defendants have two attorneys, a lead chair and a seco nd chair. To be the lead attorney, for example, a lawyer must have been . the assistant in at least two death penalty cases, as well have handled a substantial number of serio us felony cases. And the lead attorn ey must be able to demonstrate that he has enough' time to devote to the ·death penalty case. But such requirements are nor the national standard. There have been instances of death penalty lawyers falling asleep durin g th e trial. , Until such standards are in place, however, and until all death penalty defendants have access to DNA and other scientifi c testing that will prove their guilt - or innocence - there's only one step that can be taken. Morally, ethically and legally, we cannot allow another execution until th ere are absolute guarantees that not one more person will die for a crime he or she did nm com mit.

Today's Highlight in History: On Aug. 8, 1974, President Nixon announced he would resign followin g new damaging revelations irt the Watergate scandal. On this date: In 1815, Napoleon Bonaparte set sail for St. Helena to spend the remainder of his days in exile. In 1876, Thomas A. Edison received a patent for his mimeograph. In 1942, six convicted Nazi saboteurs who'd landed in the United States were executed in Washington D.C.; two others received life imprisonment. In 1945, President Truman signed the United Nations C har- . ter. In 1945, the Soviet Union declared war against Japan during World War 11. In 1953, the United States and Smith Korea initialed a mutual security pact. In 1963, Britain's "Great Train Robbery" took place as thieves made off with 2.6 million pounds in banknotes. In 1968, Richard M. Nixon was nominated for president at the Republican national convention in Miami Beach. · In 1973, Vice President Spiro T. Agnew branded as "damned lies" reports he had taken kickbacks from government contracts in Maryland, and vowed not to resign - which he eventually did. In. 1978, the United States launched Pioneer Venus 2, which carried scientific probes to study the atmosphere ofVenus. Ten years ago: Lebanese kidnappers freed British 'tV producer John McCarthy, held hostage for more than five years; however, a rival group abducted Frenchman Jerome Leyraud, threatening to kill him if any more hostages were released (Leyraud was freed three days later). The slain bodies offormer Iranian Prime Minister Shahpour Bakhtiar and his chief of staff were found in Bakhtiar's residence outside Paris. Five years ago: President Clinton belittled Bob Dole's tax plan, vowing to oppose tax cu ts that he said the country couldn't afford . One year ago: Vice President Al Gore formally introduced and celebrated his Jewish running mate, S.e n . Josep h Lieberman, during an appearance in Gore's home sta te ofTennessee. A b" mb ripped through an undergr~und walkway in central Moscow, killing at least 13 people. C hile's Supreme Court stripped Gen.

PERKINS' VIEW Hypocrisy·makes Gray administration go around California Gov. Gray D4vis has spent much of the past few monthS' lambasting out-of-state electricity , robber barons. "We're in a war with · generators," he declared, "that are trying to bleed us dry. They're trying to ship every dime out of our state and back to Houston, Texas." Davis' remarks were, of course, an indirect swipe at President Bush, who, much to the California gbve rnor's consternation , refused to support government price controls on wholesale electricity. Because the president held fast tb freemarket principles, His Grayness accused him of "allowing the price-gouging energy companies, many of which reside in Texas, to get away with murder." It was all part of a transparent, politically calculated strategy on the governor's part to deflect public criticism of his mishandling of CalifOrnia's elec tricity crisis. O n the advice of political hatchet men Ma<k Fabiani and Chris Lehane, who made th e.i':Jlones doi!!g damage control for Dill C linton, Davis attempted to transform the Golden Stare's energy crisis into som e latter- day populist struggle. Poor, overcharged .California electricity users on one side. Rich , price-gouging, out-of-state energy producers many from Texas - on the other. The people's governor takes on Big Electricity's president. Davis'·subterfuge worked for a while. He managed to stabilize his free-falling approval ratings in California. And he put the Bush administration and the electricity generators on . the defensive. But the governor's political revival has proven short-lived because of two recent damning revelations:That municipal utilities in California actually charged the state more for electricity than out-ofstate .energy companies when the state's electricity crisis was at its worst. And that Joseph PerKins COLUMNIST spinning for his boss. M aybe because Maviglio figured it had to be OK for him to own stock in outof-state Enron (not to mention stock in Calpine, a San Jose-based electricity generator) since the governor's very OYlll energy advisers had power company stocks in their personal portfolios. Indeed, the Securities and Exchange Cornrilission is investigating whether five of those advisers used insider information to trade stocks of energy companies doing business with the state. The Davis Five were traders who bought electricity on behalf of California from C alpin e, eve n as th ey owned shares in the in-state generator, ranging in value from several thousand dollars to more than $100,000. . The governor's energy advisers had to kn0 w that their decisions could have an inipact on Calpine's stock price. And if that was not downright cruninal, it certainly was a gross ~co nfli ct of interest. Then there's Barry Goode, legal affairs secretary for Davis, who owned between $1 00;000 and $1 million .in Williams Companies. That's ·another out-of-state (Oklahoma) electricity generator Davis has accused of sti cking it !o California. It was hypocritical of Davis to bash· energy companies outside the state's borders for price gouging while saying nothing about higher-charging generators in state. It was unconscionable that he allowed his appointees to invest in energy companies that had business before the state. Davis' credibility is irreparably damaged. Anything California's governor says or does about the state's electricity crisi• mu~t be viewed with suspicion: BY RED GREEN A lor of old guys get up way too.early.

Plus, you're sound asleep at 7:30 in the evening, and th at doesn't go over so well, either. Now, we all know that we'd all sleep in if we could, but stress and nois e and. guilt and over-active kidneys get in the way. So here's what you do: Wh enever you're up several hours before your sleepier half, do the dishes or dust th e furniture or wash the windows.

Quota unquota To get·the maximum performance out of their employees, a lot of com panies have a quota system, where you're expected to build a certain number of units or co ntact a certain number of customers or generate a 'certain aniount of business. Then, once you reach your " quota, it's normal to coast for a while. I'm wondering whether the same thing happens in life -- that once you've .worked a certain number of years or made a certain number of mortgage paym€nts or raised a certain number of kids, you're allowed to coast for a while. That seems fair. On the other hand, when old people get crabby and difficult to live wi th, I'm wondering whether maybe they think they've been nice long enough , and now it's tim e to coast. That's not good. When you feel like you're getting down to your last smile, get someone to raise your quota.You need to stay happy till you drop, even if you're faking it.

North vs. south You always hear that opposites attract, but I think that only applies to magnets. And very few people are magnets, even though they hover around the fridge lot. Two people who are opposites have nothing in common, and ultimately, that makes f<lr a very tough relationship. Arguments over whether to go the ballet or the tractor pull rarely have a happy ending. If you see a couple where she's wearing a designer gown and he has a "Will Work for Beer" T-shirt, don't spend much on the wedding gift. On the other hand, it is important for members of couples to be different from each · other. Just not too different.

' Until there are guarantees) death penalty should be halted • The Reporter, Lebanon, Ind. , on tire deatlr pe..alty: It's time for a nation-wide moratorium on the death penalty. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor said th at, " If statistics are any indication, the system may well be allowing some innocent defendants to be executed." ... O'Connor suggested that lawyers who represent capital offense defendants meet minimum standards. In Indiana, such attorneys are said to be " death qualified," because they meet certain requirements. Death penalty defendants have two attorneys, a lead chair and a seco nd chair. To be the lead attorney, for example, a lawyer must have been . the assistant in at least two death penalty cases, as well have handled a substantial number of serio us felony cases. And the lead attorn ey must be able to demonstrate that he has enough' time to devote to the ·death penalty case. But such requirements are nor the national standard. There have been instances of death penalty lawyers falling asleep durin g th e trial. , Until such standards are in place, however, and until all death penalty defendants have access to DNA and other scientifi c testing that will prove their guilt - or innocence - there's only one step that can be taken. Morally, ethically and legally, we cannot allow another execution until th ere are absolute guarantees that not one more person will die for a crime he or she did nm com mit. T-ODAY: IN HISTO -R Y BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Wednesday, Aug. 8, the 220th day of 200 I. T here are 145 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On Aug. 8, 1974, President Nixon announced he would resign followin g new damaging revelations irt the Watergate scandal. On this date: In 1815, Napoleon Bonaparte set sail for St. Helena to spend the remainder of his days in exile. In 1876, Thomas A. Edison received a patent for his mimeograph. In 1942, six convicted Nazi saboteurs who'd landed in the United States were executed in Washington D.C.; two others received life imprisonment. In 1945, President Truman signed the United Nations C har- . ter. In 1945, the Soviet Union declared war against Japan during World War 11. In 1953, the United States and Smith Korea initialed a mutual security pact. In 1963, Britain's "Great Train Robbery" took place as thieves made off with 2.6 million pounds in banknotes. In 1968, Richard M. Nixon was nominated for president at the Republican national convention in Miami Beach. · In 1973, Vice President Spiro T. Agnew branded as "damned lies" reports he had taken kickbacks from government contracts in Maryland, and vowed not to resign - which he eventually did. In. 1978, the United States launched Pioneer Venus 2, which carried scientific probes to study the atmosphere ofVenus. Ten years ago: Lebanese kidnappers freed British 'tV producer John McCarthy, held hostage for more than five years; however, a rival group abducted Frenchman Jerome Leyraud, threatening to kill him if any more hostages were released (Leyraud was freed three days later). The slain bodies offormer Iranian Prime Minister Shahpour Bakhtiar and his chief of staff were found in Bakhtiar's residence outside Paris. Five years ago: President Clinton belittled Bob Dole's tax plan, vowing to oppose tax cu ts that he said the country couldn't afford . One year ago: Vice President Al Gore formally introduced and celebrated his Jewish running mate, S.e n . Josep h Lieberman, during an appearance in Gore's home sta te ofTennessee. A b" mb ripped through an undergr~und walkway in central Moscow, killing at least 13 people. C hile's Supreme Court stripped Gen. Augusto Pinochet's immunity, clearing the way for the former dictator to be tried on human rights charges. (However, an appeals court later ruled Pinoc het unfit to stand trial because of his deteriorating heal th and ·mental conrlition.)

PERKINS' VIEW Hypocrisy·makes Gray administration go around California Gov. Gray D4vis has spent much of the past few monthS' lambasting out-of-state electricity , robber barons. "We're in a war with · generators," he declared, "that are trying to bleed us dry. They're trying to ship every dime out of our state and back to Houston, Texas." Davis' remarks were, of course, an indirect swipe at President Bush, who, much to the California gbve rnor's consternation , refused to support government price controls on wholesale electricity. Because the president held fast tb freemarket principles, His Grayness accused him of "allowing the price-gouging energy companies, many of which reside in Texas, to get away with murder." It was all part of a transparent, politically calculated strategy on the governor's part to deflect public criticism of his mishandling of CalifOrnia's elec tricity crisis. O n the advice of political hatchet men Ma<k Fabiani and Chris Lehane, who made th e.i':Jlones doi!!g damage control for Dill C linton, Davis attempted to transform the Golden Stare's energy crisis into som e latter- day populist struggle. Poor, overcharged .California electricity users on one side. Rich , price-gouging, out-of-state energy producers many from Texas - on the other. The people's governor takes on Big Electricity's president. Davis'·subterfuge worked for a while. He managed to stabilize his free-falling approval ratings in California. And he put the Bush administration and the electricity generators on . the defensive. But the governor's political revival has proven short-lived because of two recent damning revelations:That municipal utilities in California actually charged the state more for electricity than out-ofstate .energy companies when the state's electricity crisis was at its worst. And that Joseph PerKins COLUMNIST spinning for his boss. M aybe because Maviglio figured it had to be OK for him to own stock in outof-state Enron (not to mention stock in Calpine, a San Jose-based electricity generator) since the governor's very OYlll energy advisers had power company stocks in their personal portfolios. Indeed, the Securities and Exchange Cornrilission is investigating whether five of those advisers used insider information to trade stocks of energy companies doing business with the state. The Davis Five were traders who bought electricity on behalf of California from C alpin e, eve n as th ey owned shares in the in-state generator, ranging in value from several thousand dollars to more than $100,000. . The governor's energy advisers had to kn0 w that their decisions could have an inipact on Calpine's stock price. And if that was not downright cruninal, it certainly was a gross ~co nfli ct of interest. Then there's Barry Goode, legal affairs secretary for Davis, who owned between $1 00;000 and $1 million .in Williams Companies. That's ·another out-of-state (Oklahoma) electricity generator Davis has accused of sti cking it !o California. It was hypocritical of Davis to bash· energy companies outside the state's borders for price gouging while saying nothing about higher-charging generators in state. It was unconscionable that he allowed his appointees to invest in energy companies that had business before the state. Davis' credibility is irreparably damaged. Anything California's governor says or does about the state's electricity crisi• mu~t be viewed with suspicion: BY RED GREEN A lor of old guys get up way too.early. If you see a lot more sunrises than you do sunsets, you're probably one of th em. This can be very irritating to your wife. She doesn 'r like . the concept of you being up before the roosters, doing things in the ·basement that she can't control.

That seems fair. On the other hand, when old people get crabby and difficult to live wi th, I'm wondering whether maybe they think they've been nice long enough , and now it's tim e to coast.

Two people who are opposites have nothing in common, and ultimately, that makes f<lr a very tough relationship. Arguments over whether to go the ballet or the tractor pull rarely have a happy ending. If you see a couple where she's wearing a designer gown and he has a "Will Work for Beer" T-shirt, don't spend much on the wedding gift. On the other hand, it is important for members of couples to be different from each · other. Just not too different. They need to share interests, but one of them has to be less intense than th e other. One is the . racecar; the other one is the drag chute.

AMERICAN LEAGUE Oakland takes series opener from Boston BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Boston Red Sox had a tough first night in Oakland, and the rest of the series doesn't figure to get much easier. Mark Mulder pitched 7 1-3 strong innings to win his sixth straight decision, ·and Frank Menechino drove in two runs as the Oakland Athletics beai Boston 5-2 Tuesday night for their sixth straight victory. · The Red Sox lead the A's by 1 1/2 games in the race for the AL wild card and have to face Oakland's other two young aces, Tim Hudson and Barry Zito, the next two games .. The flu bug is running through the Oakland clubhouse, but a series-opening win made the A's feel better. "We treat every game as a big game, but this is a team that might be in our way of making the playoffs," Menechino said. "We all know this could be a big series for us. There's a lot of guys who aren't feeling good in the clubhouse, but we're not play· ing like it."· Oakland won for the ninth time in 11 games, while Boston had its four-game winning streak snapped.

The left-bander retired the final 12 batters he faced. "I wasn't feeling too well, and early on, I was trying to do too much," Mulder said. "But there's · nothing better than pitching with a lead. That settled me down." Bret Saberhagen took the loss in his first start at the Coliseum since Sept. 30, 1989 about the same time Mulder. was beginning the seventh grade. Saberhagen (1-2) . allowed seven liits and struck - out fivein his tliird start since returni~g from shoulder . surgery that kept him out all last season.

It's not life or death or anything, but it's something I live wjth every day." Not only did the Red Sox lose ground to Oakland, they failed to close ground on the AL East-leading Yankees.
