Wilma Swartz ·Village police chief fired NORT HFIELD (AP) - The village's police chief has been fired on charges that he mishandled cocaine and made lewd comments at a patrolwoman. Mayor Victor Milani fired James Varga on Monday, saying the 12year member of the department was a "source of embarrassment and ridicule" to himself and the village located IS 'miles southeast of Cleveland. Varga, 40, denied the charges and said he plans to appeal. The firing followed a Summit County sheriff's investigation of allegations thatVarga sexually harassed the department's only female officer and mishandled contraband last year. . Sheriff's detectives concluded in their May 9 report that Varga broke state laws when he failed to properly store and destroy cocaine, which was found under the back seat of apolice car. Also, he kept a bottle of whiskey that had been confiscated 'from a suspect, the report said. The report concluded that Varga sexually haJ.;~ssed officer Lia Withrow, 36, and created an uncomfortable workplace with distasteful remarks about Withrow's body. City Law Director Bradric T. Bryan said he did not file criminal charges against Varga, because the cocaine and whiskey were. not needed for criminal cases and the third-degree misdemeanor Varga could have been charged with "wasn't worth pursuing." Varga had not been at work since early March, when Milani suspended him with pay pending the outcome of the 'investigation. Milani said he hopes to appoint a new police chief within a month. 1 1... lntemet threat prompts dosing BATH (AP) - Internet threats caused a private elementary school to cancel classes' and a spring picnic that were. scheduled for Friday. · Tho threats of violence iiJVolving Old Trail School were posted on the Cleveland Live Teen Talk forum on May 12 and 14,according to Eliza Wing, president of Cleveland Live.

COLUMBUS (AP) - Col. Kenneth B. Marshall, who ·has headed the Sta~ Highway Patrol since 1997, said Monday that he is' retiring June 30. A successor has not been named by Gov. Bob Taft's administration. As superintendent, Marshall oversaw a staff of about 2,500, including troopers, civilian staffers and dispatchers. The patrol's mandatory retire- · ment age of 55 played a role in the · decision to retire now, said Marshall, who turned 54 last month. "It's been a great career in law enforcement,.and I'm looking forward to starting s~ond career, . whatever that may be." Marshall said he is interested in joining the governor's staff in an administrative role. "Nothing is firmed up at this point. We're still talking about it." He sard he plans to remain resident of the Pataskala area in central Ohio's Licking Count)'; clore to family. His daughter Heidi is a · · state trooper and instructor at the patrol's academy in Columbus. The Salem native joined the patrol in 1969 after serving four years in the U.S. Navy.

Wilma Swartz ·Village police chief fired NORT HFIELD (AP) - The village's police chief has been fired on charges that he mishandled cocaine and made lewd comments at a patrolwoman. Mayor Victor Milani fired James Varga on Monday, saying the 12year member of the department was a "source of embarrassment and ridicule" to himself and the village located IS 'miles southeast of Cleveland. Varga, 40, denied the charges and said he plans to appeal. The firing followed a Summit County sheriff's investigation of allegations thatVarga sexually harassed the department's only female officer and mishandled contraband last year. . Sheriff's detectives concluded in their May 9 report that Varga broke state laws when he failed to properly store and destroy cocaine, which was found under the back seat of apolice car. Also, he kept a bottle of whiskey that had been confiscated 'from a suspect, the report said. The report concluded that Varga sexually haJ.;~ssed officer Lia Withrow, 36, and created an uncomfortable workplace with distasteful remarks about Withrow's body. City Law Director Bradric T. Bryan said he did not file criminal charges against Varga, because the cocaine and whiskey were. not needed for criminal cases and the third-degree misdemeanor Varga could have been charged with "wasn't worth pursuing." Varga had not been at work since early March, when Milani suspended him with pay pending the outcome of the 'investigation. Milani said he hopes to appoint a new police chief within a month. 1 1... lntemet threat prompts dosing BATH (AP) - Internet threats caused a private elementary school to cancel classes' and a spring picnic that were. scheduled for Friday. · Tho threats of violence iiJVolving Old Trail School were posted on the Cleveland Live Teen Talk forum on May 12 and 14,according to Eliza Wing, president of Cleveland Live.

COLUMBUS (AP) - Col. Kenneth B. Marshall, who ·has headed the Sta~ Highway Patrol since 1997, said Monday that he is' retiring June 30. A successor has not been named by Gov. Bob Taft's administration. As superintendent, Marshall oversaw a staff of about 2,500, including troopers, civilian staffers and dispatchers. The patrol's mandatory retire- · ment age of 55 played a role in the · decision to retire now, said Marshall, who turned 54 last month. "It's been a great career in law enforcement,.and I'm looking forward to starting s~ond career, . whatever that may be." Marshall said he is interested in joining the governor's staff in an administrative role. "Nothing is firmed up at this point. We're still talking about it." He sard he plans to remain resident of the Pataskala area in central Ohio's Licking Count)'; clore to family. His daughter Heidi is a · · state trooper and instructor at the patrol's academy in Columbus. The Salem native joined the patrol in 1969 after serving four years in the U.S. Navy. He was promoted to conunander of the Piqua post in 1981 and has held command positions at the patrol's headquarters since 1990. He became the patrol's 12th superintendent on Feb. 28, 1997.

T he US Suprtme Court decided Monday Jt will step into an environmental case with "profound implications for the health of the American public," according to th e government's attorneys. Profound is right. And whatever deci Sion the justices reach f!!Jtll their review of Browner vs. American Trucking Association will have an even larger impact o n tbe may electric industry and a number of related businesses. · ' At issue is a federal appeals court's decision blocking enforcement of clean air • standards by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in 1997. EPA has argued the standards - its • toughest and most controversial yet- are our regwu. vital .to the health of Am encans suffering respiratory ailments, the elderly and children. The standards were successfully challenged by a coalition of of industry groups, as well as West Virginia, Ohio and Michigan . The U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia agreed last year with their content10n that EPA had overstepped its bounds. Appeals judges found the EPA "offers no intelligible principle by which to identify a stopping point" for allowable pollutant emissions. Their decision has been appealed by the government. The justices now face ·a difficult decision. They, like many Americans, are concerned with dean air and a livable environment. However, the nation's industrial might is powered by ,electricity, gas and, thankfully, coal- all things that produce "dirty" air. If the high court opts to uphold EPA's authority to impose tough standards, will it also do harm to industry? And if there are no regulations, what happens to our standml of living? Ohio and West Virginia, primary players in the production of electricity and coal, will contend EPA's standards are difficult· to meet and wal ,have a negative impact on utilities and coal compames. Utilities and coal face new challenges - electric suppliers from dereb'lllation, coal from environmental rules regulating pollutants. At stake are jobs as both look to maintain a co mpetitive edge. Many of those jobs are right here. EPA's goal to produce a cleaner atmosphere is admirable, but has any thought gone into the consequences stricter ~cgulations will bring? On the surface, it doesn't appear so. Instead, the EPA appears to have been hit by the si!ly stick oflate. Need proof? Its claim that power plants right here in our region make for "dirty" air in N ew York City is not based in scientific fact. (Maybe EPA officials have been breathing a bit too much of that New York air.) We ask the justices, when they take up the ,;;;, to carefully consider the importance of their decision. There are many other quality of life issues besides clean air in this issue. The court's decision n1ay very well dictate the economic survival of our region·.

In 1533, the marriage of England's King Henry VIII to Catherine of A.ragon wdS declared nuU and void. In 1701, Capt. William Kidd was hanged in London after he was convicted of piracy and murder. In 1788, South Carolina became the eighth state to ratifY the U.S. Constitution. In 1915, Italy declared war on Austria-Hunb""Y in World War I.

Epidemic of illegitimacy cries OtJt for action "We have stubbornly refused to take prevention seriously when it comes to guns, to keep guns out of the hands of criminals and children." - Bill Clinton "There is no greater threat to the health and safety of our children than tobacco."- AI Gore "Some of these young people have problems that are symptoms of nothing more than childhood or adolescence." - Hillary Rodham Clinton The president, the vice president and the first lady do a lot oftalking about children and the myriad threats to their well-being, including guns, cigarettes and psychiatric drugs (like Ritalin and Prozac), Yet for all their professions of concern for the nation's children, neither Bill Clinton, AI Gore nor Hillary Clinton had anything whatsoever to say about the recent report from the National Center for Health Statistics revealing that in 1998,1,293,567 babies were born out of wedlock - "the highest number ever reported.'' Those 1,293,567 illegitimate babies represented 33 percent of all births in 1998. And among the nation's two largest minorities, blacks and Hispanics, the numbers were even more troubling: 41 percent of Hispanic babies and 70 percent of black babies were born to unwed moms. This epidemic ofillegitimacy cries out for comment, for action, from the Clinton-Gore White House, just as surely as the president, the vice president and the first lady have made their feelings known about, and proffered their policy prescriptions for, kids and guns, kids and cigarettes, and kids and prescription drugs. , But neither the president, the vice president nor the first lady is about to utter the first word on the ,growing incidence of out-of- tional and behavioral problems (which may explain, in part, why use of Ritalin among preschoolers increased ISO percent between 1991 and I '!95, and antidepressants, such aj Prozac, more than 200 percent). The children of one-parent families ar~ more likely to drop om of high school, to get pregnant as teen-agers, to use illegal drugs, and to engage in unlawful activity. So the 1,293,567 babies born to unwed moms in 1998 are all, by definition, at-risk NEA COLUMNIST children. But again, this administration that is so preoccupied with kids and guns, kids and. tobacco, and kids and Prozac, has completely wedlock births in this country.

He issued an executive order that would allow African countries to produce or obtain drugs for countering AIDS that are cheaper than those patented here in the United States. Its practical effect will be that America will not object if African countries move to cut the price of AIDS drugs , either by licensing local companies to produce generic versions or importing the drugs from other countries where they are cheaper. Clinton took the historic step after House and Senate negotiators dropped a simil-ar pro- fro;., vision the African trade bill now working its way through Congress. Senator Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., the .measure's sponsor, had threatened .t o filibu ster the trade bill .if the AIDS provision failed to get action. "I spent 9 years as mayor understanding what AIDS can do and how it can spread," said the former San Francisco chief executive. "There will be no Africa left for an African tra4e initiative unless this amendment is part of that initiative." ' In issuing the Feinstein measure by exec utive' order, President·Clinton overrode not just a reluctant Republican-led Congress but a world tbat. still shows signs of denial about the · · global AIDS specter. Senate Republican lead¢r Trent Lott of Mississippi said Clinton's d.ecutive order is a case of his taking the law-making process into his own hands.

Recently, new neighbors moved in. They have two cats that roam around the neighborhood freely. Normally, this would not bother me, but the cats like to use my flower bed as a litt.er box, and the smell is absolutely horrendous. I talked to my neighbors about this, and they assured me it would be taken care of. That worked for three days. Since then, they have done nothing to ensure that their cats stay on their own property. These neighbors are nice people, and l don't have any other problems with them, but the flower bed is near my front door, and anyone who comes to visit is confront~d by the awful odor.

T he US Suprtme Court decided Monday Jt will step into an environmental case with "profound implications for the health of the American public," according to th e government's attorneys. Profound is right. And whatever deci Sion the justices reach f!!Jtll their review of Browner vs. American Trucking Association will have an even larger impact o n tbe may electric industry and a number of related businesses. · ' At issue is a federal appeals court's decision blocking enforcement of clean air • standards by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in 1997. EPA has argued the standards - its • toughest and most controversial yet- are our regwu. vital .to the health of Am encans suffering respiratory ailments, the elderly and children. The standards were successfully challenged by a coalition of of industry groups, as well as West Virginia, Ohio and Michigan . The U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia agreed last year with their content10n that EPA had overstepped its bounds. Appeals judges found the EPA "offers no intelligible principle by which to identify a stopping point" for allowable pollutant emissions. Their decision has been appealed by the government. The justices now face ·a difficult decision. They, like many Americans, are concerned with dean air and a livable environment. However, the nation's industrial might is powered by ,electricity, gas and, thankfully, coal- all things that produce "dirty" air. If the high court opts to uphold EPA's authority to impose tough standards, will it also do harm to industry? And if there are no regulations, what happens to our standml of living? Ohio and West Virginia, primary players in the production of electricity and coal, will contend EPA's standards are difficult· to meet and wal ,have a negative impact on utilities and coal compames. Utilities and coal face new challenges - electric suppliers from dereb'lllation, coal from environmental rules regulating pollutants. At stake are jobs as both look to maintain a co mpetitive edge. Many of those jobs are right here. EPA's goal to produce a cleaner atmosphere is admirable, but has any thought gone into the consequences stricter ~cgulations will bring? On the surface, it doesn't appear so. Instead, the EPA appears to have been hit by the si!ly stick oflate. Need proof? Its claim that power plants right here in our region make for "dirty" air in N ew York City is not based in scientific fact. (Maybe EPA officials have been breathing a bit too much of that New York air.) We ask the justices, when they take up the ,;;;, to carefully consider the importance of their decision. There are many other quality of life issues besides clean air in this issue. The court's decision n1ay very well dictate the economic survival of our region·.

Epidemic of illegitimacy cries OtJt for action "We have stubbornly refused to take prevention seriously when it comes to guns, to keep guns out of the hands of criminals and children." - Bill Clinton "There is no greater threat to the health and safety of our children than tobacco."- AI Gore "Some of these young people have problems that are symptoms of nothing more than childhood or adolescence." - Hillary Rodham Clinton The president, the vice president and the first lady do a lot oftalking about children and the myriad threats to their well-being, including guns, cigarettes and psychiatric drugs (like Ritalin and Prozac), Yet for all their professions of concern for the nation's children, neither Bill Clinton, AI Gore nor Hillary Clinton had anything whatsoever to say about the recent report from the National Center for Health Statistics revealing that in 1998,1,293,567 babies were born out of wedlock - "the highest number ever reported.'' Those 1,293,567 illegitimate babies represented 33 percent of all births in 1998. And among the nation's two largest minorities, blacks and Hispanics, the numbers were even more troubling: 41 percent of Hispanic babies and 70 percent of black babies were born to unwed moms. This epidemic ofillegitimacy cries out for comment, for action, from the Clinton-Gore White House, just as surely as the president, the vice president and the first lady have made their feelings known about, and proffered their policy prescriptions for, kids and guns, kids and cigarettes, and kids and prescription drugs. , But neither the president, the vice president nor the first lady is about to utter the first word on the ,growing incidence of out-of- tional and behavioral problems (which may explain, in part, why use of Ritalin among preschoolers increased ISO percent between 1991 and I '!95, and antidepressants, such aj Prozac, more than 200 percent). The children of one-parent families ar~ more likely to drop om of high school, to get pregnant as teen-agers, to use illegal drugs, and to engage in unlawful activity. So the 1,293,567 babies born to unwed moms in 1998 are all, by definition, at-risk NEA COLUMNIST children.

Recently, new neighbors moved in. They have two cats that roam around the neighborhood freely. Normally, this would not bother me, but the cats like to use my flower bed as a litt.er box, and the smell is absolutely horrendous. I talked to my neighbors about this, and they assured me it would be taken care of. That worked for three days. Since then, they have done nothing to ensure that their cats stay on their own property. These neighbors are nice people, and l don't have any other problems with them, but the flower bed is near my front door, and anyone who comes to visit is confront~d by the awful odor. I am planning to put my. house up for sale in a few months, and am concerned that had advised this couple not to buy so much as a curtain rod until the sale was completed. They didn 't listen to me.

TIME OUT FOR TIPS BY IICKY BAD MEIGS COUNTY EXTENSION AGENT FAMILY AND CONSUMER SCIENCES/ COMMUNITY DEVELOPME!'IT , Heritage tourism is becoming o.oe of the most popular forms of tourism. Heritage tourists spend almost 61 days on vacation versus other types of tourists 'who ip.e nd only four days. One fourth of tourists see· historical sites and participate in heritage acti~ities whlle traveling. These visitors stay longer ' and spend more money than other types of sightseers. They tend to be families with children or well-educated, high-income older adults . . According to the National Heritage Tourism Research Forum, heritage tourism is traveling to experience the places and activities that authentically represent the stories and people of the past. Therefore, it is based upon · the particular region - its culture, history and natural environment making it unique. The architecture, landscapes, historical legacies, traditional practices, memorabilia, cuisine and art! and crafts all com. bine to make a heritage area distinctive and extraordinary. Heritage areas are regional and federally designated. Currendy there are 300 llationwide and five in various stages in Ohio.They not only provide a huge economic impact on the area, but they also have great social value. Community pride is a result of the additional sites, activities and events that are developed because of heritage tourism. Residents gain a deeper appreciatioq of their area, its history and traditions. Heritage and cultural tourism ge'!erated $14.4 billion in Ohio in 1998. Sadly, only 6.8% of that went to Southeast Ohio. What can be done to promote Appalachian Ohio as an area for heritage tourists so that it can reap its share of the profits? First there needs to be a balance between the hlstory that made the area special and the devel. opment of the tourism industry to promote it. The National Trust for Historic Preservation in the, United States has specified the following principles: 1) Emphasize authenticity and ctuality, 2) Preserve and protect natural resources, 3) Permit sites to become alive with participation, 4) Determine how the community and tourism can complement each other, and 5) Collaborate at all levels. · To better understand what makes heritage areas novel, there are several things that they tend to have in common. There ane family and social ties to the area. The hills of Soqthern Ohlo provide a common ground for residents. The area should be multi-county with similar economic development opportunities. It is a region, not just an isolated location. Throughout the area the economic atmosphere is comparable. T~e people are unique. There is not a lot of diversity in the population . The culture is dis· tinctive. Finally, it is crucial to have a central coordi~ nating office. The• organizing and arranging of regional activities work best when handled through a clearinghouse. In order to capitalize on the heritage ·tourism trend, .you need to determine the story your area wants to tell. What aspects of the region are most unusual? Remember that heritage tourism is base on reality. Sites," cuisine, attractions, souvenirs, facilities, etc. need ·to be authentic. What can you do to want people •to come back? They need to have a memorable first experience in order for there . to be sustainable" development. What would be the attractors to the area? What would serve as inagnets to draw people there in the first place? What attractions would entertain and educate them while in the region? What historical sites, recreational activities, shops, side trips, restaurants, etc. could be incofporated on the tour? What uncommon extras could be included to prompt travelers to "linger-longer?" These bonuses could be speciality shops and places to stop while the tourists are in the area. What interesting and intriguing places are there for the local residents to patronize? Museums, craft shops and stores should also be available for local consumption. These businesses .should be open longer and more accessible. More .about heritage tourists, 'w hat they want to do and see, and the services they need while in the area will be discussed next week.

TIME OUT FOR TIPS BY IICKY BAD MEIGS COUNTY EXTENSION AGENT FAMILY AND CONSUMER SCIENCES/ COMMUNITY DEVELOPME!'IT , Heritage tourism is becoming o.oe of the most popular forms of tourism. Heritage tourists spend almost 61 days on vacation versus other types of tourists 'who ip.e nd only four days. One fourth of tourists see· historical sites and participate in heritage acti~ities whlle traveling. These visitors stay longer ' and spend more money than other types of sightseers. They tend to be families with children or well-educated, high-income older adults . . According to the National Heritage Tourism Research Forum, heritage tourism is traveling to experience the places and activities that authentically represent the stories and people of the past. Therefore, it is based upon · the particular region - its culture, history and natural environment making it unique. The architecture, landscapes, historical legacies, traditional practices, memorabilia, cuisine and art! and crafts all com. bine to make a heritage area distinctive and extraordinary. Heritage areas are regional and federally designated. Currendy there are 300 llationwide and five in various stages in Ohio.They not only provide a huge economic impact on the area, but they also have great social value. Community pride is a result of the additional sites, activities and events that are developed because of heritage tourism. Residents gain a deeper appreciatioq of their area, its history and traditions. Heritage and cultural tourism ge'!erated $14.4 billion in Ohio in 1998. Sadly, only 6.8% of that went to Southeast Ohio. What can be done to promote Appalachian Ohio as an area for heritage tourists so that it can reap its share of the profits? First there needs to be a balance between the hlstory that made the area special and the devel. opment of the tourism industry to promote it. The National Trust for Historic Preservation in the, United States has specified the following principles: 1) Emphasize authenticity and ctuality, 2) Preserve and protect natural resources, 3) Permit sites to become alive with participation, 4) Determine how the community and tourism can complement each other, and 5) Collaborate at all levels. · To better understand what makes heritage areas novel, there are several things that they tend to have in common. There ane family and social ties to the area. The hills of Soqthern Ohlo provide a common ground for residents. The area should be multi-county with similar economic development opportunities. It is a region, not just an isolated location. Throughout the area the economic atmosphere is comparable. T~e people are unique. There is not a lot of diversity in the population . The culture is dis· tinctive. Finally, it is crucial to have a central coordi~ nating office. The• organizing and arranging of regional activities work best when handled through a clearinghouse. In order to capitalize on the heritage ·tourism trend, .you need to determine the story your area wants to tell. What aspects of the region are most unusual? Remember that heritage tourism is base on reality. Sites," cuisine, attractions, souvenirs, facilities, etc. need ·to be authentic. What can you do to want people •to come back? They need to have a memorable first experience in order for there . to be sustainable" development. What would be the attractors to the area? What would serve as inagnets to draw people there in the first place? What attractions would entertain and educate them while in the region? What historical sites, recreational activities, shops, side trips, restaurants, etc. could be incofporated on the tour? What uncommon extras could be included to prompt travelers to "linger-longer?" These bonuses could be speciality shops and places to stop while the tourists are in the area. What interesting and intriguing places are there for the local residents to patronize? Museums, craft shops and stores should also be available for local consumption. These businesses .should be open longer and more accessible. More .about heritage tourists, 'w hat they want to do and see, and the services they need while in the area will be discussed next week.

"Even though our gqal isn't to leave a large estate to our children, we definitely don't have any intentions to leave an estite to the government/' McTighe said. Florida does not · tax estates. Prodded by people like McTighe, Ohio lawmakers are considering eliminating th e inheritance tax. Like other legislators arou~d the country, they have been h earing complaints about taxes for years - but feel safe in making big cuts now because the . booming economy has yielded large budget surpluses. States have cut $27.3 billion in taxes over the past six years, according to the National Association of State Budget Officers. By contrast, net reductions of state taxes occurred only twice in the 1980s, totaling $3.1 billion. Though some urge restraint and warn that the booming economy can't last, tax cuts are back on top of legislative agendas as lawmakers finish up their work for the year. · • Illinois provided $280 million in tax relief to homeowners, giving those who pay both state income taxes and local property taxes _o n their principal residence rebate checks averaging $125. • Iowa lawmakers approved a tax "holiday;· eliminating the sales tax on clothing for a backto-school shopping weekend in August. • Pennsylvania · lawmakers passed a $774 million tax-cut package this month, including a $100 property tax rebate check to all homeowners. But some lawmakers and policy analysts warn that as the stock market wobbles and the Federal Reserve continues to raise interest rates, state governments need to prepare for an inevitable downturn. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
