UMC joins the fight against ··partial-birth" abortion_ CLEVELAND (AP) - The United Methodist Church, America's largest pro-choice religious body. enlisted in the fight against so-called "partial-birth abortion" late Friday. The 622-275 decision came in the closing moments of a Gene tal Conference where delegates took dozens of liberal political stands. The eleven-day conference was most notable for Thursday's emotion-laden decision to uphold church policy against same-sex behavior. The new abortion policy urges an end to "the use of late-term abortion known as dilatation and extraction (partial-birth abortion)" except when the mother's life is in danger or there are "severe feta1 artomahes incompatible with life." A member of the legislative committee, district su perintendent Sally Dyck of Wooster, said the latter phrase referred to such cases as a fetus without a brain or heart. Delegates voted down an amendment proposed by Oyck to add the mother's health to grounds j ustifying the procedure. Steve Furr, a physician in Jackson, Ala., opposed that addition: "This is just a gaping hole to allow a procedure that should not go on in a humane society." The General Co nference meets every four years to set policy for' the United Methodist Church, which has 8.4 million U.S. members . It is the nation's third largest denomi nation behind the R oman Catholic Ch urch and Southern Baptist Conve ntion, both of which strongly oppose abortion. Counties ~y cost too high for proposed jail CHILLICOTHE- Plans for a juvenile detention center to ease overq;owding in facilities in eight counties could be scrapped unless the state provides more money for the project. The counties Athens, Fayette, Highland, Jackson, Pickaway, Pike, Ross and Vinton have worked for more than a year on plans for the 48- bed juvenile detention center. But in March, each county learned how much of the $8 million bill it owed and some found they couldn't afford to pay up. Although the state tentatively has committed $3 million to the project, that might not be enough to get it off the drawing board. And if one or more counties drop out, the burden could be to o much for th~ others. "None of them are ready to let it drop yet; they want to try to find a way to ease the cost," said Mike Oyer, director of the 19bed South Central Ohio Region'al Juvenile Detention Center, which now serves the regio n. Representatives from Athens and Pickaway counties said at a meeting this week that their share would pur them too dose to their legal ~orrowing limit for ca pital Improvement projects. "We need more help from the state," Athens County. CommissionerMark Sullivan said. " We arc very appreciative of the $3 million they have off~ red for th,; project, but we just can't afford it." One of Pickaway County's concerns is that the amount each c~unty would pay is ba;ed on its tax value r~ther than population, Pickaway County C:vmmissioner John Stevenson said . If population were used in the calculations, Pic kaway 's sha re would drop to about 19 percent from 25 percent. . If Athens aqd Pickaway counties drop out, Vinton and Jackson counti es said they could not handle the increased cost and \vould have to withdraw.

UMC joins the fight against ··partial-birth" abortion_ CLEVELAND (AP) - The United Methodist Church, America's largest pro-choice religious body. enlisted in the fight against so-called "partial-birth abortion" late Friday. The 622-275 decision came in the closing moments of a Gene tal Conference where delegates took dozens of liberal political stands. The eleven-day conference was most notable for Thursday's emotion-laden decision to uphold church policy against same-sex behavior. The new abortion policy urges an end to "the use of late-term abortion known as dilatation and extraction (partial-birth abortion)" except when the mother's life is in danger or there are "severe feta1 artomahes incompatible with life." A member of the legislative committee, district su perintendent Sally Dyck of Wooster, said the latter phrase referred to such cases as a fetus without a brain or heart. Delegates voted down an amendment proposed by Oyck to add the mother's health to grounds j ustifying the procedure. Steve Furr, a physician in Jackson, Ala., opposed that addition: "This is just a gaping hole to allow a procedure that should not go on in a humane society." The General Co nference meets every four years to set policy for' the United Methodist Church, which has 8.4 million U.S. members . It is the nation's third largest denomi nation behind the R oman Catholic Ch urch and Southern Baptist Conve ntion, both of which strongly oppose abortion. Counties ~y cost too high for proposed jail CHILLICOTHE- Plans for a juvenile detention center to ease overq;owding in facilities in eight counties could be scrapped unless the state provides more money for the project. The counties Athens, Fayette, Highland, Jackson, Pickaway, Pike, Ross and Vinton have worked for more than a year on plans for the 48- bed juvenile detention center. But in March, each county learned how much of the $8 million bill it owed and some found they couldn't afford to pay up. Although the state tentatively has committed $3 million to the project, that might not be enough to get it off the drawing board. And if one or more counties drop out, the burden could be to o much for th~ others. "None of them are ready to let it drop yet; they want to try to find a way to ease the cost," said Mike Oyer, director of the 19bed South Central Ohio Region'al Juvenile Detention Center, which now serves the regio n. Representatives from Athens and Pickaway counties said at a meeting this week that their share would pur them too dose to their legal ~orrowing limit for ca pital Improvement projects. "We need more help from the state," Athens County. CommissionerMark Sullivan said. " We arc very appreciative of the $3 million they have off~ red for th,; project, but we just can't afford it." One of Pickaway County's concerns is that the amount each c~unty would pay is ba;ed on its tax value r~ther than population, Pickaway County C:vmmissioner John Stevenson said . If population were used in the calculations, Pic kaway 's sha re would drop to about 19 percent from 25 percent. . If Athens aqd Pickaway counties drop out, Vinton and Jackson counti es said they could not handle the increased cost and \vould have to withdraw. The group ~ill m eet again in few weeks to review its options, Oyer said. The new center would be built on the site of the existing facility about 40 miles so uth of Columbus and .5 mil es northwest of Chilli co the on the Roweton farm, a charitable rrust intended to serve the area's youth. United Methodist agencies were founding members of the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice, a pro-choice lobby in Washington , D.C., founded in 1973 after the U.S. Supreme Court legalized abortion . After the legislative conunittee approved the bill. the coalition issued a press statement denouncing conservative efforts " to under- onine the church 's historic support safe and co mmon procedures used for a woman's moral and medical throughout pregnancy, including right to choose abortion.'' before viability."

These men and women who answered their country's call to duty have earned much more than just those days of homage. But the harsh reality is that this nation's public policy towards veterans is little more than empty words and broken promises. For many of our elected officials in Washington, programs established by a grateful nation to care for the brave men and women who bear the deepest wounds and scars of war are no longer a national priority. Federal spending for veteran's health care has not kept pace with the rising cost of care, even though the veteran population is shrinking. True, we are losing I ,000 World War 11 veterans each day, but their com~des are living longer, putting an even greater strain on the Department ofVeternns Affair.; 0/A) medical system. Many sick · and disabled veterans must wait months for an appointment to see a medical specialist. The more than I ,160,500 veterans of Ohio should be outraged that the federal government has failed to provide adequate funding for veterans· health care. These shortfaUs have meant local VA hospitals have had to cut ~ervices and lay off health care workers. These cuts seriously threaten the quality and availability of health care for Ohio veterans. The only way to end the crisis in veterans health care is for every one of us - veterans and non-veterans alike - · to write or caD our U.S. senators and representatives in Washington today. Tell them to do what's right and support adequate federal funding for veterans programs. Tell them to honor America's commitment to veterans. A good job Dear Editor: I would like to publicly thank BPOE Lodge 107, Gallipolis, for the lovely youth banquet they sponsored on May 7. Invited guests were those students and their parents in the GalliaMeigs-Mason area who excel academically. The meal was delicious, the certificates presented were lovely, and the words of Past Exalted Ru.ler John Pierotti were inspiring. We constantly hear how no one ever does anything for our youth, and the afternoon was dedicated to congratulate o ur best and the parents who have instilled pride and dedication in them. These Elks men and women gave up th eir day to prepare, cook and honor these students, and for those students and parents who elected not to attend, for whatever reason, you missed a great afternoon and opportunity to thank an organization for the more than $160,000 in scholarships they present to deserving youth each year.

Fair enough. The facts. were as weak as the coun's jurisdiction was uncertain, hue the case is interesting nonetheless. This was the question: How should the law deal with libel by e-mail? This much is clear.Ji:l\~eptember 1994, some person, as yet unidedi!led, sent messages by email in the name o£15-year-old Alexander Lunney of Bronxville, N.Y. At least two of themessages were posted on a bulletin board maintained by Prodigy Sen,iccs Co., an Internet service provider. In theory, 2 million users of the buDetin board had potential access to it. One message went to John Satenstein, an area Boy Scout leader. It purported to be from Alex Lunney. The subject: "How I'm gonna' kiD U." The message followed with threats to sodomize his sons. Another e-mail wa.• addressed to a teen-aged girl, a classmate of Alex· at the Bronxville High School. It invited oral sex. All the messages crossed over the line of vulgarity and into the field of ob,scenity. Saten<tein immediately caUed police, who promised a ftill 1 investigation. Nothing ever came of the full investigation. He also telephoned Alex's scoutmaster, who went at once to the boy's father, a lawyer with offices in White Plai.ns. EventuaUy it transpired that the imposter had opened at least nine fictitious accounts with Prodigy, aU of them tied to Alex by name or address. It appears from the record that it was no problem at all to open an account with Pro,Jigy. The company actively mliwed memberships, especially among families with children .

COLUMBUS (AP) -The 12-day strike at Phio State University escalated Friday when workers stopped the $187 million renovation of Ohio Stadium by blocking the gates to the construction site. The delay was not expected to slow completion of the second phase of the three-year project, expected to be done. by the Sept. 2 home opener against Fresno State, athletics director Andy Geiger said: ·A Franklin County Com.inon Pleas Court judge later issued a temporary order that aUows only two pickets at one gate and other univer.;ity construction sites and Prohibits strikers from blocking work at· those site. A se{larate order issued by another judge prohibits strikers from interfering with operations at Ohio State University Medical Center. Work on the . footbaU stadium was to resume Saturday. Rank-and-file members of Communications Workers of America Local 4501 organized the pickets without the union leader- Democrats say Res11ick proved sl1e is j11st what polls show Ol1io's voters want- a j11dge wl1o supports educatio11 and is willi11g to go to bat .for the state~ schoolchildren.

"She has made herself pretty dear that she's the leader of this activist court and basically she believes the court ca n be used to legislate rather than adjudicate as it's supposed to," Ohio Republican Party spokesman Gary Abernathy · said. Resnick wrote in majority opinion that in 1997, the court "did n'l)t require a specific funding scheme, and did not instruct the Genetal Assembly as to what legisb.tion should be enacted. .. . The reason for this is the doctrine of separation of powers." However, Resnick added: "Courts do possess the authority to enforce their orden, since the power to declare a particular law or enactment unconstitution - . al must include the power to require a revision of that enactment, to ensure that is then constitutional." By ruling out several options for fixing the school funding system, Resnick obviously believes the only acceptable solution is increasing taXes, said Andy Doehrel, president of the Ohio Chamber of Commerce, whose political action committee has endorsed O'DonneD. ship, union officials said. . "We did it today because we haven't made any progress;' said Michael Haqier, an 18-year employee at Qhio State and a CWA member. "We're very disappointed that the union took this step," President William Kirwan said. Kirwan said the university chose to shut down the site rather than have workers cross the picket line. "It would have only escalated. what was already a tense situation," he said. University spokeswoman Elizabeth Conlisk said state and federal law prohibits workers from striking anywhere at the stadium except near the gate that university employees use. The union set up pickets all around the site. "We lost a day's work and about $400,000;' Geiger said of this phase of the project, which include< lowering the field, adding seats and putting in a new scoreboard. "Yeah, it's a concern." Union President Gary Josephson acknowledged that workers were acting on its o\vn. "The exuberance and frustration of our members with the university's bck of response apparently overwhelmed them;' he said. . He said there has been talk of pic~ting at the stadium since the strike by food service, transportation, intenance workers began May 1, but unio leaders knew it was illegal. The strike has bee ostly over wages. Workers, supported by students, began picketing about 5 a.m . About 75 members remained at one location even when an ·i nternational representative told them they COl not stay, which Jed angry workers to question whether union leaders were supporting them. Most of the workers left the area about 11 a.m. No major injuries were reported, but Ohio State freshman Sean Luse said he was punched in the jaw by a construction worker while he picketed with about 30 students around 5:45 a.m. Federal, state laws take swipe at designer drug ' COLUMBUS (AP) - Mary Ellen Cag1pobasso still becomes frightened wherl she recaUs finding·her daughter Jessica curled up in the 'bed of a pickup truck, violently shaking and vomiting from a drug she unknowingly ingested.

AEP. which has invested heavily in technology to cleanse coal of sulfur and other pollutants, has kept its plants and jobs , viable. Last week, quite justifiably, the utility asked for dismissal of the complaints. . ADEC expresses the need to meet those concerns, but not to elimiuare coal from the mix. Instead, the group argues, it should remain a component in the plan it hopes to drati from the dialogue. " In examining U.S. energy policy," said Gerald M. Anderson, president ofDTE Energy Resources, " more emphasis has been placed on reducing out dependence on imported oil, and far too little tonsideration has been given to the technologies and strategies that will rrteet the growing demand for energy in an environmentaUy sound, . economical manner in the years ahead." :Noting that over 250 year.; of coal reserves remain in America, !'\DEC is promoting electricity from coal as essential, affordable and most of all, clean.

"Thus far, technology has provided the biggest boost in achieving our environmental goals," said R.oy M. Palk, president of Eastern Kentucky Power Cooperative Inc., "and we will continue to make i~vestments in that area." : In a world increasingly dependent on electric power, all available rbources have to be examined. Despite setbacks the coal industry has s(1ffered, it remains a reliable source for meeting the nation 's energy ~eeds. . • And if ABEC is successful in addressing its goals, coal will still be a~ integral part of any nationai energy agenda.

Acting directly on 'the central nervous system, GHB also can lead to unconsciousness, seizures, severe breathing .problems and even a coma within 20 minutes.

These men and women who answered their country's call to duty have earned much more than just those days of homage. But the harsh reality is that this nation's public policy towards veterans is little more than empty words and broken promises. For many of our elected officials in Washington, programs established by a grateful nation to care for the brave men and women who bear the deepest wounds and scars of war are no longer a national priority. Federal spending for veteran's health care has not kept pace with the rising cost of care, even though the veteran population is shrinking. True, we are losing I ,000 World War 11 veterans each day, but their com~des are living longer, putting an even greater strain on the Department ofVeternns Affair.; 0/A) medical system. Many sick · and disabled veterans must wait months for an appointment to see a medical specialist. The more than I ,160,500 veterans of Ohio should be outraged that the federal government has failed to provide adequate funding for veterans· health care. These shortfaUs have meant local VA hospitals have had to cut ~ervices and lay off health care workers. These cuts seriously threaten the quality and availability of health care for Ohio veterans. The only way to end the crisis in veterans health care is for every one of us - veterans and non-veterans alike - · to write or caD our U.S. senators and representatives in Washington today. Tell them to do what's right and support adequate federal funding for veterans programs. Tell them to honor America's commitment to veterans. A good job Dear Editor: I would like to publicly thank BPOE Lodge 107, Gallipolis, for the lovely youth banquet they sponsored on May 7. Invited guests were those students and their parents in the GalliaMeigs-Mason area who excel academically. The meal was delicious, the certificates presented were lovely, and the words of Past Exalted Ru.ler John Pierotti were inspiring. We constantly hear how no one ever does anything for our youth, and the afternoon was dedicated to congratulate o ur best and the parents who have instilled pride and dedication in them. These Elks men and women gave up th eir day to prepare, cook and honor these students, and for those students and parents who elected not to attend, for whatever reason, you missed a great afternoon and opportunity to thank an organization for the more than $160,000 in scholarships they present to deserving youth each year.

Fair enough. The facts. were as weak as the coun's jurisdiction was uncertain, hue the case is interesting nonetheless. This was the question: How should the law deal with libel by e-mail? This much is clear.Ji:l\~eptember 1994, some person, as yet unidedi!led, sent messages by email in the name o£15-year-old Alexander Lunney of Bronxville, N.Y. At least two of themessages were posted on a bulletin board maintained by Prodigy Sen,iccs Co., an Internet service provider. In theory, 2 million users of the buDetin board had potential access to it. One message went to John Satenstein, an area Boy Scout leader. It purported to be from Alex Lunney. The subject: "How I'm gonna' kiD U." The message followed with threats to sodomize his sons. Another e-mail wa.• addressed to a teen-aged girl, a classmate of Alex· at the Bronxville High School. It invited oral sex. All the messages crossed over the line of vulgarity and into the field of ob,scenity. Saten<tein immediately caUed police, who promised a ftill 1 investigation. Nothing ever came of the full investigation. He also telephoned Alex's scoutmaster, who went at once to the boy's father, a lawyer with offices in White Plai.ns. EventuaUy it transpired that the imposter had opened at least nine fictitious accounts with Prodigy, aU of them tied to Alex by name or address. It appears from the record that it was no problem at all to open an account with Pro,Jigy. The company actively mliwed memberships, especially among families with children .

COLUMBUS (AP) -The 12-day strike at Phio State University escalated Friday when workers stopped the $187 million renovation of Ohio Stadium by blocking the gates to the construction site. The delay was not expected to slow completion of the second phase of the three-year project, expected to be done. by the Sept. 2 home opener against Fresno State, athletics director Andy Geiger said: ·A Franklin County Com.inon Pleas Court judge later issued a temporary order that aUows only two pickets at one gate and other univer.;ity construction sites and Prohibits strikers from blocking work at· those site.

"She has made herself pretty dear that she's the leader of this activist court and basically she believes the court ca n be used to legislate rather than adjudicate as it's supposed to," Ohio Republican Party spokesman Gary Abernathy · said. Resnick wrote in majority opinion that in 1997, the court "did n'l)t require a specific funding scheme, and did not instruct the Genetal Assembly as to what legisb.tion should be enacted. .. . The reason for this is the doctrine of separation of powers." However, Resnick added: "Courts do possess the authority to enforce their orden, since the power to declare a particular law or enactment unconstitution - . al must include the power to require a revision of that enactment, to ensure that is then constitutional." By ruling out several options for fixing the school funding system, Resnick obviously believes the only acceptable solution is increasing taXes, said Andy Doehrel, president of the Ohio Chamber of Commerce, whose political action committee has endorsed O'DonneD. ship, union officials said. . "We did it today because we haven't made any progress;' said Michael Haqier, an 18-year employee at Qhio State and a CWA member. "We're very disappointed that the union took this step," President William Kirwan said. Kirwan said the university chose to shut down the site rather than have workers cross the picket line. "It would have only escalated. what was already a tense situation," he said. University spokeswoman Elizabeth Conlisk said state and federal law prohibits workers from striking anywhere at the stadium except near the gate that university employees use. The union set up pickets all around the site. "We lost a day's work and about $400,000;' Geiger said of this phase of the project, which include< lowering the field, adding seats and putting in a new scoreboard. "Yeah, it's a concern." Union President Gary Josephson acknowledged that workers were acting on its o\vn. "The exuberance and frustration of our members with the university's bck of response apparently overwhelmed them;' he said. . He said there has been talk of pic~ting at the stadium since the strike by food service, transportation, intenance workers began May 1, but unio leaders knew it was illegal. The strike has bee ostly over wages. Workers, supported by students, began picketing about 5 a.m . About 75 members remained at one location even when an ·i nternational representative told them they COl not stay, which Jed angry workers to question whether union leaders were supporting them. Most of the workers left the area about 11 a.m. No major injuries were reported, but Ohio State freshman Sean Luse said he was punched in the jaw by a construction worker while he picketed with about 30 students around 5:45 a.m. Federal, state laws take swipe at designer drug ' COLUMBUS (AP) - Mary Ellen Cag1pobasso still becomes frightened wherl she recaUs finding·her daughter Jessica curled up in the 'bed of a pickup truck, violently shaking and vomiting from a drug she unknowingly ingested.

AEP. which has invested heavily in technology to cleanse coal of sulfur and other pollutants, has kept its plants and jobs , viable. Last week, quite justifiably, the utility asked for dismissal of the complaints. . ADEC expresses the need to meet those concerns, but not to elimiuare coal from the mix. Instead, the group argues, it should remain a component in the plan it hopes to drati from the dialogue. " In examining U.S. energy policy," said Gerald M. Anderson, president ofDTE Energy Resources, " more emphasis has been placed on reducing out dependence on imported oil, and far too little tonsideration has been given to the technologies and strategies that will rrteet the growing demand for energy in an environmentaUy sound, . economical manner in the years ahead." :Noting that over 250 year.; of coal reserves remain in America, !'\DEC is promoting electricity from coal as essential, affordable and most of all, clean.

Rep. Rick Lazio, R-N. Y., a co-sponsor of the bill that passed in the House this week, delivered the nationwide message as he is being $rust into the spotlight as a possible replacement for Rudolph Giuliani should the New York City mayor bow out of the Senate race. Giuliani's recent diagnosis of prostate cancer and his marital woes and alleged infidelities have fueled speculation that he will abandon his Senate bid against first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton. Lazio said the Breast and Cervical Cancer Treatment Act is the needed follow up to legislation passed in 1990 providing free cancer screening for low-income women. The new bill gives states the option of providing Medicaid coverage to low-incon1e women such as those who are diagnosed with breast or cervical cancer through the early detection program.

Donna Dees-Thomases, a public relations executive from Short Hills, N.J. , said the Internet gives " mothers who are sick and tired of gun violence in this country" a "cheap, effective way of communicating" to compete with the pov)erful pro-gun lobby. Dees-Thomases told a news conference Friday that starting next week, she and other mothers "will take off our oven mitts and look at candidates very closely. Shame on us if we do not keep it going." She said the "Million Mom March" organization would, likely apply for a tax-exempt status that would permit political activities while promoting social welfare. It is unlikely the organization would start a political action committee beca11se it would duplicate gun control PAC! already in existence, she ' Dees- Tl1on1ases told a news conference Friday that starti_ng next week, she and other 111others "will take off our oven mitts and lol!k at candidates IICT}' closely." said. . Explaining the difference between her movement and existing gun control organiZiltions, Dees- Thorrlases said, "There, has been no grass-roots movement. It's all been done within the Beltway," the highway that encircles the capital and has come to ·symbolize the divide between Washington and the test of the country. Sunday's rally on the National Mall, however, will discourage partisanship by keeping·· political figures off the form;! program even though "they all want to go on stage;' DeesThomases said. . ' Numerous entertainers will speak and perform and political figures including first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton will march, but the major focus will be victims of gun violence telling their personal stories. DeesThomases said 150,000 are expected for the Washington rally, whil~ similar demonstrations will take place in about 70 other dues.

Rep. Rick Lazio, R-N. Y., a co-sponsor of the bill that passed in the House this week, delivered the nationwide message as he is being $rust into the spotlight as a possible replacement for Rudolph Giuliani should the New York City mayor bow out of the Senate race. Giuliani's recent diagnosis of prostate cancer and his marital woes and alleged infidelities have fueled speculation that he will abandon his Senate bid against first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton. Lazio said the Breast and Cervical Cancer Treatment Act is the needed follow up to legislation passed in 1990 providing free cancer screening for low-income women. The new bill gives states the option of providing Medicaid coverage to low-incon1e women such as those who are diagnosed with breast or cervical cancer through the early detection program.

Donna Dees-Thomases, a public relations executive from Short Hills, N.J. , said the Internet gives " mothers who are sick and tired of gun violence in this country" a "cheap, effective way of communicating" to compete with the pov)erful pro-gun lobby. Dees-Thomases told a news conference Friday that starting next week, she and other mothers "will take off our oven mitts and look at candidates very closely. Shame on us if we do not keep it going." She said the "Million Mom March" organization would, likely apply for a tax-exempt status that would permit political activities while promoting social welfare. It is unlikely the organization would start a political action committee beca11se it would duplicate gun control PAC! already in existence, she ' Dees- Tl1on1ases told a news conference Friday that starti_ng next week, she and other 111others "will take off our oven mitts and lol!k at candidates IICT}' closely." said. . Explaining the difference between her movement and existing gun control organiZiltions, Dees- Thorrlases said, "There, has been no grass-roots movement. It's all been done within the Beltway," the highway that encircles the capital and has come to ·symbolize the divide between Washington and the test of the country. Sunday's rally on the National Mall, however, will discourage partisanship by keeping·· political figures off the form;! program even though "they all want to go on stage;' DeesThomases said. . ' Numerous entertainers will speak and perform and political figures including first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton will march, but the major focus will be victims of gun violence telling their personal stories. DeesThomases said 150,000 are expected for the Washington rally, whil~ similar demonstrations will take place in about 70 other dues. A counter-rally will be conducted by Sec" ond Amendment Sisters Inc., which is in de~ pendent of the NRA and describes itself as l!

To those who follow nonChristian religions or no religion, MacGregor says, messages in art• works about jesus Christ may seem "irrecOverably remote;' which "is surely to risk losing the heart of the matter." He insists that these great paintings "explore truths not just · for Christians but for everybody." "The differing moments and aspects of Christ's life become archetypes of all human experience;' he believes. The sorrowing Virgin conveys every mother's feelings. We encounter the world's pain as Christ is crucified. In the risen Christ we see that love is eternal and death defeated. In that spirit, the gallery recendy mounted an exhibit called "The Image of Christ;' also the title of an accompanying papetback edited by curator Gabriele Finaldi and colleagues that is graced with 160 illustrations (Yale University Press, $24.95). . The exhibit explored the challenge artists throughout two centuries have faced in depicting Jesus. For one thing, they · had no idea what he looked like, though certain conventions of a lean and bearded figure became established. More important, how does one portray God who became man? How does one make his suffering both personal and cosmic? Other paradoxes the book notes: Jesus as both victor and victim, savior and sacrifice, King of Kings yet despised and rejected. In the church's early centuries, Jewish scruples lingered and Christians felt it was wrong to render visual representations of God incarnate, choosing instead to represent Jesus with letters or visual symbols, including the fish, the lamb and th~ cross. Once that had changed, we observe a set of reliefS that an anonymous Roman artist carved in ivory for the sides of a casket in 430. These include the oldest surviving representation of the Crucifixion . · This artist conveyed divinity with remarkable visual effect. His Jesus strides toward Calvary with a sense of purpose and without reluctance. On the cross, he is a commanding superhuman with stocky physique, eyes wide open, head erect. In the Middle Ages, this concept of the triumphant Christ gave way to realism that emphasized the agonies of the Crucifixion as a visual a.id for meditation. Sometimes the viewer WliS virtually pulled 1nto the picture. In Ugolino di Nerio's 1325 painting of the sacred body being taken down from the cross, Christ seems almost to embrace mother Mary, a metaphor for the crucified one embracing the believer. The medieval imagery can be <hocking to us. In a 1465 work by Giovanni Bellini, blood pours from Jesus' wounded side into a chalice ·j I • held by a kneeli'ng angel. announc- · ing the Catholic belief that the · wine of communion is literally ' Christ's blood. An even more graphic painting of sacramental union, hy Francisco Ribalta in ' 1620, showed Saint Francis putting his lips to the wound to drink. ·The numerous paintings of the risen Christ would no doubt have been shocking to the early Christians, portraying not only God in the flesh but in partial nakedness. Bur the purpose WliS didactic as well as aesthetic, to proclaim that a literal human body rose from the grave. Though we hardly think of the 20th century as a great age offaith in the fine arts, it has produced intriguing works. William Holman Hunt was converted to Christianity while painting his first version of "The Light of the World;' which became the most popular image of Christ in the English-speaking world, a virtual Protestant icon. It went on a world tour from 1905 t\) . 1907 and when it landed in New . Zealand, throngs gazed upon irs lantem-bearingJesus. · · Stanley Spencer's 1920 "Christ Carrying the Cross" is almost a return to 430, with cheery sunlight · and village life proclaiming that the : reconciliation of God and man is no cause for sorrow.

Plants in the organic garden also benefit from the mixe d diet offered. fertilizers like compost, seawood and pulverized rock supply the dozen or so soil nutrients required for plant growth. On the other hand, giving your garden a handful of c hemical 10-10- 10 fertilizer feeds, plants only nitrogen, phosphorus· and potassium, and perhaps one •or two other essential nutrients. As for pest problems, organic gardeners shun the arseAal of chemical pesticides avail~ able. The organic gardener chooses from many other options to solve and avoid problems: Handpicking a diseased leaf or hungry insect; tolerating a certain amount of pest damage; avoiding problems in the first place with crop rotation. For emergencies,- such as eggplant leaves shot full of holes from hungry flea beetles, natural sprays are used. Such a spray might blj. a biast of water, a piant- derived insecticide, or even a spray that inflicts disease on an insect culprit. A particular benefit of g~r­ dening organically is that it forces you to look closely and frequently at your plants.

Just what is it? The underlying philosophy. is to promote the health of the soil. The history of the organic gardening movement can be traced to the work of Albert Howard, an English agricultural scientist who studied the relationship between soil, plant, livestock and human health. Sir HowaTd, who was eventually knighted for his work , showed that organic matter is the backbone of a healthy soil. Organic matter is a catchall term for what is ·or was (in various states of decomposition) living. The ultimate . source of 'organi~ matter is plant residues, in such forms as o ld plants left to rot in the soil, hay mulch and preprocessed residues like manure and compost. Look upon organic matter as the roughage in a plant's di et. . . The organic gardener feeds the soil. As soil organisms "chew" up such organic fertili2ers as compost, cow manure Or soybean meal, nutrients are released for plant use. Organic fertilizers eventually are broken down to compounds that are essentially the same as chemical fertilizers. But breakdown of organic fe rtilizers by soil . microb es depends on moisture and temperature the same things that affect plant growth. So .

Plants in the organic garden also benefit from the mixe d diet offered. fertilizers like compost, seawood and pulverized rock supply the dozen or so soil nutrients required for plant growth. On the other hand, giving your garden a handful of c hemical 10-10- 10 fertilizer feeds, plants only nitrogen, phosphorus· and potassium, and perhaps one •or two other essential nutrients. As for pest problems, organic gardeners shun the arseAal of chemical pesticides avail~ able. The organic gardener chooses from many other options to solve and avoid problems: Handpicking a diseased leaf or hungry insect; tolerating a certain amount of pest damage; avoiding problems in the first place with crop rotation. For emergencies,- such as eggplant leaves shot full of holes from hungry flea beetles, natural sprays are used. Such a spray might blj. a biast of water, a piant- derived insecticide, or even a spray that inflicts disease on an insect culprit. A particular benefit of g~r­ dening organically is that it forces you to look closely and frequently at your plants. As ;an old saying goes: "The besr f~­ tilizer is the shadow of tp e ' gardener." rin9 f\AC1y F\owers ... a Celebrating NationatNursing Home W~ek • Moadar, May IS, ZOOO Dress-Up Day 10 a.m. • 2 p.m.·~ Show I p.m. ·l'roclamlllion 2 p.m. -All Day Bilfl ENTE'R TAINMENT NEWS to the doorsteps of artists in Athens and Washington counties.

Just what is it? The underlying philosophy. is to promote the health of the soil. The history of the organic gardening movement can be traced to the work of Albert Howard, an English agricultural scientist who studied the relationship between soil, plant, livestock and human health. Sir HowaTd, who was eventually knighted for his work , showed that organic matter is the backbone of a healthy soil. Organic matter is a catchall term for what is ·or was (in various states of decomposition) living. The ultimate . source of 'organi~ matter is plant residues, in such forms as o ld plants left to rot in the soil, hay mulch and preprocessed residues like manure and compost. Look upon organic matter as the roughage in a plant's di et. . . The organic gardener feeds the soil. As soil organisms "chew" up such organic fertili2ers as compost, cow manure Or soybean meal, nutrients are released for plant use. Organic fertilizers eventually are broken down to compounds that are essentially the same as chemical fertilizers. But breakdown of organic fe rtilizers by soil . microb es depends on moisture and temperature the same things that affect plant growth. So .

However, this year, the. mild winter prompted an early emergence of . the :ilfalfa weevil, and this has provided the opportunity for a second generation to emerge in a few weeks. The late larval srage of the weevil is responsible for the extensive defoliation of alfalfa. During the eally larval s1:age, damage may only be confined to the tips of the leaves. The adult weevil does not cause sigriificant damage. Corrective action for damaged fields may include: • Early cutting of crops that are Jennifer Byrnes GUEST COLUMNIST at least 12 inches tall or, • Application of a non-resrri.c ted use insecticide such as Lorsban. A quick and easy assessment of the neld is to observe the plants for more than three late larvae per stem; this would warrant corrective action, either cutting · or chemical control. Late larvae are characterized by a green color and worm-larvae appearance, measuring nearly 3/8 of an inch long.

Although the time to rescue the first cutting of highly infested fields has passed in most cases, producers should expect a second generation of weevils that is li~ly to be even more damaging. Typi~aliY, we are only concerned · about one .generation of altalfa weevil, and even this one generation is moderately controlled by p:o:;uitic wasps. However, this year, the. mild winter prompted an early emergence of . the :ilfalfa weevil, and this has provided the opportunity for a second generation to emerge in a few weeks. The late larval srage of the weevil is responsible for the extensive defoliation of alfalfa. During the eally larval s1:age, damage may only be confined to the tips of the leaves. The adult weevil does not cause sigriificant damage. Corrective action for damaged fields may include: • Early cutting of crops that are Jennifer Byrnes GUEST COLUMNIST at least 12 inches tall or, • Application of a non-resrri.c ted use insecticide such as Lorsban. A quick and easy assessment of the neld is to observe the plants for more than three late larvae per stem; this would warrant corrective action, either cutting · or chemical control. Late larvae are characterized by a green color and worm-larvae appearance, measuring nearly 3/8 of an inch long.

Divide the stems into 4-5 bunches and shake each bunch down into the bucket, causing the late larvae to fall into the bucket. Using 10 stems from your sample, determine the average height of the crop in inches. Early cutting or chemical control 1s more economical than no action for the following ranges: for 12-inch he1ght, 30-50 larvae; 16-mch height, 40-75 larvae; 26 inches, 45-85 larvae; and 24 inches, 50- 90 lirvae. These ranges are w1de to account for varying ·crop values. For example, alfalfa crops of high value should be treated when these thresholds are reached at the low end of the range. Treannent or cutting otless valuable alfalfa may be delayed until the maximum number of larvae is reached. The parasitic wasps that control alfalfa weevil in a normal year are very susceptible to insecticides, this chemical action should be taken only after the field has reached the threshold for econqmic loss, and an early harvest is not possible. Producers who apply cheiJllcals to the crop should consider the pre- harvest mtei'val of the pesticide.

Divide the stems into 4-5 bunches and shake each bunch down into the bucket, causing the late larvae to fall into the bucket. Using 10 stems from your sample, determine the average height of the crop in inches. Early cutting or chemical control 1s more economical than no action for the following ranges: for 12-inch he1ght, 30-50 larvae; 16-mch height, 40-75 larvae; 26 inches, 45-85 larvae; and 24 inches, 50- 90 lirvae. These ranges are w1de to account for varying ·crop values. For example, alfalfa crops of high value should be treated when these thresholds are reached at the low end of the range. Treannent or cutting otless valuable alfalfa may be delayed until the maximum number of larvae is reached. The parasitic wasps that control alfalfa weevil in a normal year are very susceptible to insecticides, this chemical action should be taken only after the field has reached the threshold for econqmic loss, and an early harvest is not possible. Producers who apply cheiJllcals to the crop should consider the pre- harvest mtei'val of the pesticide.

COLUMBUS (AP) - The current Legislature - and not the next one ~ should take on the task of creating a remedy to th.e Ohio Supreme Court's ruling that the state 's school funding formula remains unconstitutional, Republican leaders agree. House Speaker Jo Ann Davidson of Reynoldsburg said last week the current legislative lineup b'as the expertise to fix the funding problem. And · the dozens of new members coqring aboard in January because. of term limits will have more problems than just finding their parking spots. Hearing; will begin at the start of the session on a ~ -year budget that likely will exceed. $40 billion. The Supreme Court ruled Thursday 'that despite billions spent on school construction plus other legislative activity since 1997, when the court first ruled the system unconstitutional, the funding forlflula was still flawed. The primary reason is that the state relies too heavily on property taxes to pay for schools, the court's 4-3 majority said. Both Davidson and Senate President Richard Finan of Cincinnati said after the court's ruling that they're ready to tackle the problem and not leave it to the new lawmakers. .. I r .'

' No contempt citations were issued, but the case took more than a decade·to resolve . "They just continued writing opinion after opinion;• Resnick said. ' Resnick,,a Democrat, was chosen by lot to ·write for the bipartisan majority. . ChiefJustice Thomas J. Moyer wrote the lead opinion for the three Republican justices who dissented and criticized the majority for crealing \)le likelihood of"protracted judicial supervision" similar to New Jersey's.
