(AP) - Life on the farm can be fun, especiaily for a kid, but an ounce of carelessness can leave a child scarred. maimed or dead. It's the reason behind the Farm Safery Day Camp, which farmer Karen Skeets holds once a year at the Ozark Fairgrounds. "We need it. You read about too many deaths (of kids) on farms," Skeets said while conducting her • most recent camp. Skeets said she came up with the idea while reading a magazine at her poultry and cattle farm at Branch one night. She was pregnant at the time and the message hit home. "One hundred thousand kids are injured -every year in agricultural accidents. And those are just the numbers that required hospitalization or medical care," she said. :,, Skeets read about the ProgresJive Farm Safery Day Camp and ciUed the company 110 find out how she could start one in Arkansas. P-i ogtes.ive has been sponsoring camps across the nation since 1995 . The Ozark camp . moves 10 groups of kids through I 0 different classes in a day. The lessons include First Aid, all-terrain-vehicle safety, PTO, or "power-take-off;' safery; hidden ha:zards, firearm safery and snakes. After Skeets completed a training session in Dallas, she was iUowed to open the one-day camp using the Progressive name. Progressive provides T-shirts, goody-bags and insurance; Skeets provides the rest through donations. Her first camp, in 1998, had 118 children and last year's had 190. Her session April 29 drew 208. Nationally, there were 229 camps in 1999 with 40,000 kids attending. Skeets drew children to the Ozark Fairgrounds this spring from seven counties in western A!"kansas and one counry in eastern Oklahoma. "Keep away from the PTOs (power-take-off). Farm Bureau.)

"If I have a 0.2-second reaction time, I'll just get a goose bump. If not, you're dead or injured." A power-take-off is used to tap the power source of a tractor to help run other machinery. Resulting accidents can be severe. Tommy Frank, a farmer and one of the PTO instructors, was speaking from experience when he told the kids to be safe. Frank lost his right arm in a PTO accident 12 year.; ago. "Kids are asking the right questions and listening a lot better than I thought they would," Frank said. Besides listening to stories about horrible accidents, the kids were taught a new appreciation for snakes - hands on. "Most people who get bitten by snakes are trying to kill them. If you get bitten. stay calm, get to a phone and get to a doctor," said Millie Phillips, who ciUed herself"The Snake Lady." While walking around the room with a nonpoisonous corn snake, Phillips told the kids not to kill the snakes they may find on their farms because they keep down the mice, rat and frog populations. All but one camper touched the snake. Instructors at the camp are volunteers, including farmers, police officers and members of groups such as the Arkansas Farm Bureau. "This· program is important because they (kids) get to realize farrrung is work. Driving a tractor is as fun as riding a bicycle, but they realize it is work and there's some danger in it;' said Andy Guffey of the Farm Bureau. Skeets knew her camp was doing some good when she got a card from a 16-year-old who attended her camp last year. "He wrote, 'I thought I knew everytl),ing and found out I didn't.' If you can get a 16-year-old to admit that, that's great," Skeets said. Meigs County's Volume so, Number l6 Hometown Newspaper so Cents Middleport • Pomeroy.

Poll: Ohioans won't like court nlling CINCINNATI (AP) - Just over half the people surveyed in a statewide poU knew that a federal appeals court had ruled that Ohio's state motto, "With God, aU things are possible," was unconstitutional. But among those people, 88 percent disagreed with the ruling, according to an Ohio PoU released over the weekend. The poU was taken before Frid.oy's decision by the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to reconsider its ruling that the motto illegally promotes Christianity over other religions. The Ohio Legislature adopted the motto in 1959 as a quotation from Jesus in the New Testament writings of Matthew. In an initial chaUenge by opponents, U.S. District Court Judge James Graham of Columbus said in 1998 that in a secular setting the words are compatible with Judaic or Muslim beliefS. In April, a panel of the appeals court ruled 2-1 that Graham was wrong. But on Friday, the court said it will rehear arguments about whether the motto's wording violates the U.S. Constitution as an apparent government endorsement of religion. The 13 judges of the Cincinnati-based appeals court could schedule arguments as soon as December, after both sides file written arguments. The American Civil Liberties Union has argued the case against the motto. The state attorney general's office is defending it. Among people surveyed by the Ohio PoU, 62 percent said they were aware of the April ruling setting aside the motto. Eleven percent of those people agreed with the ruling, and 88 percent disagreed. The poU was sponsored by the University of Cincinnati and was conducted by the university's Institute for Policy Research. It was conducted by telephone June 9-27 among a random sample of 839 adults.

OrthoConcepts of Highland Heights, Ohio, had 50 employees before losing a battle to have Medicare cover a device it nukes primarily for nursing home patients. After declaring bankruptcy in 1995 and reorganizing its finances, "we ended up with four people who took a chance and stayed with us. Now we're back up to maybe nine or 10," Greene said. Through years of regulatory re"\ews and court appeals, the company ran up $1 thillion in legal bills. Greene's hope for a comeback rests with Congress, where legislation has been introduced to declare his product eligible for Medicare reimbursement. OrthoConcepts' aluminum, foam and cloth device creates a sort of second skeleton to help severely disabled patients get out of bed and sit up straight. The goal is to distribute the patient's Ohio the product as an .orthotic device - designed to support or supplement a weakened or atrophied limb or function.

FINDLAY (AP) Law enforcement agencies are having mixed reactions to newly signed state legislation that will .allow Ohio deputies and sheriffs to turn in their badges earlier for retirement. The legislation permits sheriffs and deputies to retire after 25 years' of service and at age 48 the same as police officers, firefighters and State Highway Patrol troopers. Until now, deputies had to put in 30 years and be 52 years old before they were eligible for full benefits. Robert CornweU, executive director of the Buckeye State Sheriffs' Association, said the change was long overdue. ''It's always been an equity issue for us," he told The Courier. "AU we ever wanted was pariry with police officers and firefighters and troopers when it comes to retirement." The sheriffs ' assoc1at10n, which represents 88 sheriffs throughout Ohio, has been pushing for the provision for the past eight years, Cornwell said. Hancock County Sheriff Mike Heldman said the law coul<! lead tu an exodus of officers in the next four or five years. "I think it's a positive thing for the employee;' Heldman said. "For the. employer, it nuy not always be the best thing." Officers who qualifY for retirement under the new law will now have the choice of moving on to a second career or staying in law enforcemenr, Heldman said. "They will have to see if it is worth it to stick around, or if they want to move on," he said. CornweU said that departments could benefit by the change by attracting an influx of new sheriff's employees. "When you're 23 years old, the thought of working until you are 65 seems pretty daunting," he said. "Forty-eight, on the other hand, may not seem so bad." But there is a downside to the early retirement plan for law enforcement officers, the newspaper reported. In Findlay this year for example, six veteran city police officers have chosen to retire after meeting the 25 years, age 48 requirements. This is creating worker shortages, and a major reshutlling of the supervisory posts. "We're goi ng to be nine officers down due to retirement and anrition before we're done," police chi efTom Renninger said. "We may never get caught up." Hiring a large number of employees at one time to replace those who have retired has 'its drawbacks, 25 years down the road, Renninger said. "What we're seeing now is the residual effect of the hiring boom from the mid-'70s," he said. "The ciry is going ~o have the same problem 25 years from now." Sheriff's corrections officers and dispatchers are not eligible ,for the new retirement plan. states. When New York shuts its gates on the 3,000-acre Fresh KiDs Landfill at the end of next year, the volume of garbage coming to Ohio is likely to rise, said Andrew Booker, a waste supervisor for the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency.

The mayor said that he had "absolutely not" assaulted Skiadas. The mayor's statement wished Skiadas good health, but denied harming him, The Blade reported for a story Sunday. " I did not harm him in any way as I am sure a physical exam by police confirmed," the mayor said. Skiadas told police the mayor yelled obscenities at him, poked him and threatened to run him out of town. "When the mayor came onto (Skiadas') premises, he immediately began yelling obscenities;' Potts said. "He poked him in the forehead, grabbed his head and shook it violently." Potts said Skiadas, who has a bad heart, was traumatized by the incident and checked into St.Vincent Mercy Medical Center. Later that day, he underwent a heart catheterization and a double angioplasty, a procedure to unclog two blocked arteries, said his daughter, Maria Skiadas. Paul Garza, a business associate of Skiadas' who witnessed the incident, :>aid Finkbeiner appeared to be in a ~ ap~ pokea Skia&s:-"The mayor was vicious, and he seemed to enjoy it," Garza told The Blade.

Critics: PhiUy's polic~ beating appears to be an aberration PHILADELPHIA (AP) Local ministers appealed for calm in the wake of the beating of a black suspect by police, while even critics of past problems in the P]jiladelphia police department described the incident as an aberration. "We're just asking you to be calm, asking our young people to be calm," said the Rev. Vernal Sims in a Sund.oy sermon at the Morris Brown AME Church in North Philadelphia. "This one incident, we will not allow it to paint a negative picture of Philadelphia." Temple University professor James Fyfe said although the la!est incident wasn't unprecedented in the police department's sometimes troubled history, he thinks conditions have improved. "I think there have been a lot of good progressive steps forward;' said Fyfe. But, he added, "What I saw in the video is an enormous step backward." The department earned a reputation as one of the nation's most brutal police forces in the 1960s and '70s under Frank Rizzo, who was police commissioner and later mayor. He was both loved for his law-and-order policies and hated for aUegations of bigotry and brutality. . In 1985, a police standoff and 90-minute gun battle with the radical group MOVE led police to drop explosives on the group's rowhouse. When the house caught fire, authorities let it burn and the fire spread, destroying two city blocks and killing 11 people. And in the mid 1990s, the police department was turned upside down by a two-year corruption scandal that ended with eight officers pleading guilty to framing drug suspects and lying about it. The city paid more than $3. 5 million to settle lawsuits and nearly 300 cases were dismissed that nuy have been tainted by corrupt officers. Fyfe, a former New York City police sergeant, contrasts Wednesday's incident- which foUowed a stolen car chase and a shootout with previous situations that he said revealed high-level police Mt>mbt•r: Th~ A s~ r ~~..i;ncJ Prc~s.

IIIlO BY KATIE CROW SENTINEL CORRESPONDENT SYRACUSE - "The whole situation is frustrating." Robert Wingett, grants administrator for Syracuse informed village council Thursday about his meeting with Meigs County Commissioners requesting financial assistance for London Pool. Wingett has met twice with conunissioners about assistance from the county with payroll needs for the village-operated pool. Wingett asked for assistance from the county's recreation funds, and was told by the board that a>Sistance should be avai lable, instead, through the Summer Youth Employment Trait:Jing Program. The co unty operates that program through Temporary Assistance to Needy Families. "It now ~ppears that we will receive no benefit whatsoever. I was led to believe that we would get 'financial assistance in the form of employees," Wingett noted. "Now it appears that it will not be forthcomin g in manpower or otherwise." Wingett not on ly expressed disenchantment, but council did as \Vell. Also meeting with council was Julie Hubbard of Church Street about neighborhood disturbances. She explained that the_ problems have been onlloing •lor seve ral rnonths, from noon unril 4 a.m. "My '}-year-old daughter is pet- rified," Hubbard said .. "Church Street is becoming a parking area for boats and trucks. It is no longer a thoroughfare." Mrs. Hubbard has recorded a number of incidents, she said. Mayor Larry Lavender informed Hubbard that a warrant has been issued, as well as a ci,tation, to the responsible person. A two-hour session ensued with C hristopher Thoms,_environmental specialist with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, and Pomeroy attorney Scott Powell, over an appeal of a request for a variance made by Jay Tucke r Williarn5. Williams requested a variance for the operation of a conm>ercial business on property located adjacent to State Route 124. Lavender denied the variance request since the building is on property that does not comply with Federal Emergency Management Agency guidelines. The property is located in the 100-year floodplain , and therefore, a building must be built to FEMA specifications. Those building in the floodplain must meet those regulations of health, safety and welfare. These rules must be followed in accordance with information presented at Thursday's meeting. This not only affects William<, but at least 17 other property owners in the village, it was noted. Thoms told council that he would notifY Lavender by letter of the situation that exists with relation to properties in the village. Lavender said council must determine who is in the floodplain, and that any structure built after 1983 must meet those FEMA regulations. Letters will be addressed to tho~e homeowners, who must comply with FEMA guidelines. Those building a new home or placing a mobile home in the floodplain must advise the mayor due to regulations agai nst building in the floodplain area. Persons must have a permit issued by the mayor for any new butlding. Failure to comply with FEMA regulations deni es the village of grant eligibility. Thursday's issue was tabled for further discussion. In other business, Lavender suggested that an ordina nce be written on garbage pickup, and if that Orclinanog is violated, tcnnination wo~tld follow. Lavender asked council if members thought the present service provider was doing a good JOb. and the consensus of opinion \vas that they are. He also noted that the kiddie pool had been inspected and was given outstanding approval. Sharon Cottrill, clerk/ treasurer, repcrted that thank you notes have been sent to the Syracuse Garden C lub tor flowers planted near the London Pool and the village hall. t.. • LOCAL BRIEFS . !

HOW TO USE QUICKBOOKS · 6:00 Ohio ' once ranked near the top of aU states receiving out-ofstate trash. Ohio took in its greatest volume, 3.7 million tons, in 1989. Over the next six years, however, the volume dropped nearly 73 percent to about 1 million imported tons. But those numbers have been creeping up since 1997, with the largest amount of imported garbage coming from New York. It's too early to predict how the closing of Fresh Kills Landfill wiU affect Cll'l'rent imports because the city is just beginning to issue long-term hauling contracts, said Kathy Dawkins, a spokeswoman for the New York City Department of Sanitation. The haulers, not the stares or the ciry, determine the disposal sites Dawkins said. The high volume of out-ofstate garbage 10 years ago led to changes for Ohio, suc h as raising dumping fees and creating solid waste districts, said Jane Forrest Redfern of Ohio Citizen Action in Dayton. "We may again see a cycle of increase like we saw 10 years ago," Redfern said. "We can't look at just one landfiU getting ·it.

The restaurant owner said he was traumatized by the incident and checked into a h;spital with cardia~ problems. Police Chief Mike Navarre said officers, led by 27-year department veteran Sgt. Bob MaxweU, were investigating but had not filed any charges against Finkbeiner. John Skiadas, 60, owner of Pepe's Mexican Restaurant & Cantina, is considering a lawsuit against Finkbeiner, said Skiadas' attorney,John Potts. · "Right now we're waiting for the police to complete their investigation. I think it's fair to assume that legal action will be taken," Potts said Saturday. In a statement Saturday, Finkbeiner, 61, said that he met briefly with Skiad.os on Friday morning to talk about delays in opening up Skiadas' restaurant in the city-owned Erie Street Market. "In the five minute meeting yesterday, I conveyed to him that his project was way-behind s~hed~ ule, again, and that I did not appreciate his .lack of respect for city of Toledo time guidelines, which he agreed .to weeks ago;' the mayor said.

Poll: Ohioans won't like court nlling CINCINNATI (AP) - Just over half the people surveyed in a statewide poU knew that a federal appeals court had ruled that Ohio's state motto, "With God, aU things are possible," was unconstitutional. But among those people, 88 percent disagreed with the ruling, according to an Ohio PoU released over the weekend. The poU was taken before Frid.oy's decision by the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to reconsider its ruling that the motto illegally promotes Christianity over other religions. The Ohio Legislature adopted the motto in 1959 as a quotation from Jesus in the New Testament writings of Matthew. In an initial chaUenge by opponents, U.S. District Court Judge James Graham of Columbus said in 1998 that in a secular setting the words are compatible with Judaic or Muslim beliefS. In April, a panel of the appeals court ruled 2-1 that Graham was wrong. But on Friday, the court said it will rehear arguments about whether the motto's wording violates the U.S. Constitution as an apparent government endorsement of religion. The 13 judges of the Cincinnati-based appeals court could schedule arguments as soon as December, after both sides file written arguments. The American Civil Liberties Union has argued the case against the motto. The state attorney general's office is defending it. Among people surveyed by the Ohio PoU, 62 percent said they were aware of the April ruling setting aside the motto. Eleven percent of those people agreed with the ruling, and 88 percent disagreed.

Lewis said the woman, whose name was not released, moved from her seat in coach to a seat in first class and refused to move back. "She wasn't following instructions;' he said. As the woman grew more upset and continued to say she felt ill, the pilot chose to stop at the Cincinnati airport to drop her off, he said.

Missing diamonds found in garage COLUMBUS (AP) -A lost jewelry shipment worth hundreds of thousands of dollars was found early Sunday at a downtown mall's parking garage. Police got a 3 a.m. call from security guards about a bag padlocked to a fence at the City Center mall, said Sgt. Earl Smith, a police spokesman. The l'rarrlin County bomb squad was called in, but instead ot an exp losive, the bag co ntained diamonds tile U.S. Postal Service was supposed to have delivered to a mall jeweler, police said.

OrthoConcepts of Highland Heights, Ohio, had 50 employees before losing a battle to have Medicare cover a device it nukes primarily for nursing home patients. After declaring bankruptcy in 1995 and reorganizing its finances, "we ended up with four people who took a chance and stayed with us. Now we're back up to maybe nine or 10," Greene said. Through years of regulatory re"\ews and court appeals, the company ran up $1 thillion in legal bills. Greene's hope for a comeback rests with Congress, where legislation has been introduced to declare his product eligible for Medicare reimbursement. OrthoConcepts' aluminum, foam and cloth device creates a sort of second skeleton to help severely disabled patients get out of bed and sit up straight. The goal is to distribute the patient's Ohio the product as an .orthotic device - designed to support or supplement a weakened or atrophied limb or function.

FINDLAY (AP) Law enforcement agencies are having mixed reactions to newly signed state legislation that will .allow Ohio deputies and sheriffs to turn in their badges earlier for retirement. The legislation permits sheriffs and deputies to retire after 25 years' of service and at age 48 the same as police officers, firefighters and State Highway Patrol troopers. Until now, deputies had to put in 30 years and be 52 years old before they were eligible for full benefits. Robert CornweU, executive director of the Buckeye State Sheriffs' Association, said the change was long overdue. ''It's always been an equity issue for us," he told The Courier. "AU we ever wanted was pariry with police officers and firefighters and troopers when it comes to retirement." The sheriffs ' assoc1at10n, which represents 88 sheriffs throughout Ohio, has been pushing for the provision for the past eight years, Cornwell said. Hancock County Sheriff Mike Heldman said the law coul<! lead tu an exodus of officers in the next four or five years. "I think it's a positive thing for the employee;' Heldman said. "For the. employer, it nuy not always be the best thing." Officers who qualifY for retirement under the new law will now have the choice of moving on to a second career or staying in law enforcemenr, Heldman said. "They will have to see if it is worth it to stick around, or if they want to move on," he said. CornweU said that departments could benefit by the change by attracting an influx of new sheriff's employees. "When you're 23 years old, the thought of working until you are 65 seems pretty daunting," he said. "Forty-eight, on the other hand, may not seem so bad." But there is a downside to the early retirement plan for law enforcement officers, the newspaper reported. In Findlay this year for example, six veteran city police officers have chosen to retire after meeting the 25 years, age 48 requirements. This is creating worker shortages, and a major reshutlling of the supervisory posts. "We're goi ng to be nine officers down due to retirement and anrition before we're done," police chi efTom Renninger said. "We may never get caught up." Hiring a large number of employees at one time to replace those who have retired has 'its drawbacks, 25 years down the road, Renninger said. "What we're seeing now is the residual effect of the hiring boom from the mid-'70s," he said. "The ciry is going ~o have the same problem 25 years from now." Sheriff's corrections officers and dispatchers are not eligible ,for the new retirement plan. states.

The mayor said that he had "absolutely not" assaulted Skiadas. The mayor's statement wished Skiadas good health, but denied harming him, The Blade reported for a story Sunday. " I did not harm him in any way as I am sure a physical exam by police confirmed," the mayor said. Skiadas told police the mayor yelled obscenities at him, poked him and threatened to run him out of town. "When the mayor came onto (Skiadas') premises, he immediately began yelling obscenities;' Potts said. "He poked him in the forehead, grabbed his head and shook it violently." Potts said Skiadas, who has a bad heart, was traumatized by the incident and checked into St.Vincent Mercy Medical Center.

Critics: PhiUy's polic~ beating appears to be an aberration PHILADELPHIA (AP) Local ministers appealed for calm in the wake of the beating of a black suspect by police, while even critics of past problems in the P]jiladelphia police department described the incident as an aberration. "We're just asking you to be calm, asking our young people to be calm," said the Rev. Vernal Sims in a Sund.oy sermon at the Morris Brown AME Church in North Philadelphia. "This one incident, we will not allow it to paint a negative picture of Philadelphia." Temple University professor James Fyfe said although the la!est incident wasn't unprecedented in the police department's sometimes troubled history, he thinks conditions have improved. "I think there have been a lot of good progressive steps forward;' said Fyfe. But, he added, "What I saw in the video is an enormous step backward." The department earned a reputation as one of the nation's most brutal police forces in the 1960s and '70s under Frank Rizzo, who was police commissioner and later mayor. He was both loved for his law-and-order policies and hated for aUegations of bigotry and brutality. . In 1985, a police standoff and 90-minute gun battle with the radical group MOVE led police to drop explosives on the group's rowhouse. When the house caught fire, authorities let it burn and the fire spread, destroying two city blocks and killing 11 people. And in the mid 1990s, the police department was turned upside down by a two-year corruption scandal that ended with eight officers pleading guilty to framing drug suspects and lying about it. The city paid more than $3. 5 million to settle lawsuits and nearly 300 cases were dismissed that nuy have been tainted by corrupt officers. Fyfe, a former New York City police sergeant, contrasts Wednesday's incident- which foUowed a stolen car chase and a shootout with previous situations that he said revealed high-level police Mt>mbt•r: Th~ A s~ r ~~..i;ncJ Prc~s.

IIIlO BY KATIE CROW SENTINEL CORRESPONDENT SYRACUSE - "The whole situation is frustrating." Robert Wingett, grants administrator for Syracuse informed village council Thursday about his meeting with Meigs County Commissioners requesting financial assistance for London Pool. Wingett has met twice with conunissioners about assistance from the county with payroll needs for the village-operated pool. Wingett asked for assistance from the county's recreation funds, and was told by the board that a>Sistance should be avai lable, instead, through the Summer Youth Employment Trait:Jing Program. The co unty operates that program through Temporary Assistance to Needy Families. "It now ~ppears that we will receive no benefit whatsoever. I was led to believe that we would get 'financial assistance in the form of employees," Wingett noted. "Now it appears that it will not be forthcomin g in manpower or otherwise." Wingett not on ly expressed disenchantment, but council did as \Vell. Also meeting with council was Julie Hubbard of Church Street about neighborhood disturbances. She explained that the_ problems have been onlloing •lor seve ral rnonths, from noon unril 4 a.m. "My '}-year-old daughter is pet- rified," Hubbard said .. "Church Street is becoming a parking area for boats and trucks. It is no longer a thoroughfare." Mrs. Hubbard has recorded a number of incidents, she said. Mayor Larry Lavender informed Hubbard that a warrant has been issued, as well as a ci,tation, to the responsible person. A two-hour session ensued with C hristopher Thoms,_environmental specialist with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, and Pomeroy attorney Scott Powell, over an appeal of a request for a variance made by Jay Tucke r Williarn5. Williams requested a variance for the operation of a conm>ercial business on property located adjacent to State Route 124. Lavender denied the variance request since the building is on property that does not comply with Federal Emergency Management Agency guidelines. The property is located in the 100-year floodplain , and therefore, a building must be built to FEMA specifications. Those building in the floodplain must meet those regulations of health, safety and welfare. These rules must be followed in accordance with information presented at Thursday's meeting. This not only affects William<, but at least 17 other property owners in the village, it was noted. Thoms told council that he would notifY Lavender by letter of the situation that exists with relation to properties in the village. Lavender said council must determine who is in the floodplain, and that any structure built after 1983 must meet those FEMA regulations. Letters will be addressed to tho~e homeowners, who must comply with FEMA guidelines. Those building a new home or placing a mobile home in the floodplain must advise the mayor due to regulations agai nst building in the floodplain area. Persons must have a permit issued by the mayor for any new butlding. Failure to comply with FEMA regulations deni es the village of grant eligibility. Thursday's issue was tabled for further discussion. In other business, Lavender suggested that an ordina nce be written on garbage pickup, and if that Orclinanog is violated, tcnnination wo~tld follow. Lavender asked council if members thought the present service provider was doing a good JOb. and the consensus of opinion \vas that they are. He also noted that the kiddie pool had been inspected and was given outstanding approval. Sharon Cottrill, clerk/ treasurer, repcrted that thank you notes have been sent to the Syracuse Garden C lub tor flowers planted near the London Pool and the village hall. t.. • LOCAL BRIEFS . !

HOW TO USE QUICKBOOKS · 6:00 Ohio ' once ranked near the top of aU states receiving out-ofstate trash. Ohio took in its greatest volume, 3.7 million tons, in 1989. Over the next six years, however, the volume dropped nearly 73 percent to about 1 million imported tons. But those numbers have been creeping up since 1997, with the largest amount of imported garbage coming from New York. It's too early to predict how the closing of Fresh Kills Landfill wiU affect Cll'l'rent imports because the city is just beginning to issue long-term hauling contracts, said Kathy Dawkins, a spokeswoman for the New York City Department of Sanitation. The haulers, not the stares or the ciry, determine the disposal sites Dawkins said. The high volume of out-ofstate garbage 10 years ago led to changes for Ohio, suc h as raising dumping fees and creating solid waste districts, said Jane Forrest Redfern of Ohio Citizen Action in Dayton. "We may again see a cycle of increase like we saw 10 years ago," Redfern said. "We can't look at just one landfiU getting ·it.

The restaurant owner said he was traumatized by the incident and checked into a h;spital with cardia~ problems. Police Chief Mike Navarre said officers, led by 27-year department veteran Sgt. Bob MaxweU, were investigating but had not filed any charges against Finkbeiner. John Skiadas, 60, owner of Pepe's Mexican Restaurant & Cantina, is considering a lawsuit against Finkbeiner, said Skiadas' attorney,John Potts. · "Right now we're waiting for the police to complete their investigation. I think it's fair to assume that legal action will be taken," Potts said Saturday. In a statement Saturday, Finkbeiner, 61, said that he met briefly with Skiad.os on Friday morning to talk about delays in opening up Skiadas' restaurant in the city-owned Erie Street Market. "In the five minute meeting yesterday, I conveyed to him that his project was way-behind s~hed~ ule, again, and that I did not appreciate his .lack of respect for city of Toledo time guidelines, which he agreed .to weeks ago;' the mayor said.

A reader in N ew Brunswick, N.J. , concurred, saying rhe cats will lick their paws after touching the pepper spray, and will not want to experience that awful taste again. H ere's more: From Eureka, Calif.: After two seasons of having _m y flower beds ruined by stray cats, I decided to use draconian measures . It was either the cats or my sanity. I set a couple of small mouse traps in my garden, and "caught" two tomcats. When I heard the yowls, I came out and freed them . They were no worse for the experience, and never returned to the scene of the crime. Casper, Wyo.: To keep cats out of your flower beds, take a mayonnaise jar filled with water, and place it in the soil. If the flower bed is large, it could take two or three jars. Place the jars down flat on their sides. Cats do not like to see their own reflection, and when they encou nter the jars, they will leave and not return. Lakeland , Fla.: Get several Popsicle sticks (about 4 or 5 in ches long), and push them into the ground, leaving o nly 2 or 3 inches exposed. The invading cats cannot sit or dig in the dirt, so they just leave. Billings. M ont.: Cover the ground with pine cones. Cats hate them, and will not come back. I guarantee it.

SOCIAL SECURITY COLUMN he should start collecting Social Security if Tom dies Early retirement? when" Social Security before she does. Social Security will compute If Tom waits until his full Think twice · a "basic benefit" for Tom. His re tirement age to collect Soc ial SOCIAL SECURITY MANAGER If you are married, have been the primary wage earner in your family and are thinking about filing for ~arly retirement, there are some things you should consider. Most people know they can collect reduced Social Security retirement benefits as early as age 62. However, most people don't know that collecting Social ~ ccurity before their full retirement age can reduce the benefit amounts paid to their survivors. Consider the following couple--To m was born in 1938 and has just turned 62. His wife, Shirley, has worked, but Tom has been the primary wage earner in the family. Tom is thinking about basic benefit depends on how much he has earned over hi• lifetime. If Tom waits until his full retirement age to collect Social Security, he will receive I 00 percent of his basic benefit every month for the rest of his life. For someone born in 1938, such as Tom, the full retirement age is 65 years and 2 months. lfTom collects Social Security before this age, his monthly benefit will be reduced. For example, if he collects Social Security starting at age 62, his monthly benefit amount will be about 79 percent of his basic benefit. Tom's choice of when to start receiving Social Security not o nly affects how much he gets each month , but also affects how much Shirley will get from around. Before long, it showed up, and I shot the damned thing dead. I never had any trouble with cats after that. They must have quite an effective network.

Dear Readers: The hot topic this week is how to keep cats out of you'r flower bed.

H ere's more: From Eureka, Calif.: After two seasons of having _m y flower beds ruined by stray cats, I decided to use draconian measures . It was either the cats or my sanity. I set a couple of small mouse traps in my garden, and "caught" two tomcats. When I heard the yowls, I came out and freed them . They were no worse for the experience, and never returned to the scene of the crime. Casper, Wyo.: To keep cats out of your flower beds, take a mayonnaise jar filled with water, and place it in the soil. If the flower bed is large, it could take two or three jars. Place the jars down flat on their sides. Cats do not like to see their own reflection, and when they encou nter the jars, they will leave and not return. Lakeland , Fla.: Get several Popsicle sticks (about 4 or 5 in ches long), and push them into the ground, leaving o nly 2 or 3 inches exposed.

SOCIAL SECURITY COLUMN he should start collecting Social Security if Tom dies Early retirement? when" Social Security before she does. Social Security will compute If Tom waits until his full Think twice · a "basic benefit" for Tom. His re tirement age to collect Soc ial SOCIAL SECURITY MANAGER If you are married, have been the primary wage earner in your family and are thinking about filing for ~arly retirement, there are some things you should consider. Most people know they can collect reduced Social Security retirement benefits as early as age 62. However, most people don't know that collecting Social ~ ccurity before their full retirement age can reduce the benefit amounts paid to their survivors. Consider the following couple--To m was born in 1938 and has just turned 62. His wife, Shirley, has worked, but Tom has been the primary wage earner in the family. Tom is thinking about basic benefit depends on how much he has earned over hi• lifetime. If Tom waits until his full retirement age to collect Social Security, he will receive I 00 percent of his basic benefit every month for the rest of his life. For someone born in 1938, such as Tom, the full retirement age is 65 years and 2 months. lfTom collects Social Security before this age, his monthly benefit will be reduced. For example, if he collects Social Security starting at age 62, his monthly benefit amount will be about 79 percent of his basic benefit.

(AP) - In the four years since California's groundbreak.ing medicinal marijuana law, bugs have been detected , other states have been inspired and the federal government remains unhappy. Advocates say more research could help solve problems that arose from the 1996 measure, such as how best to take the drug, how much to prescribe and how law enforcement officials should treat those with a doctor's recommendation. G ina Pesulima, spokeswoman for Americans for Medical Rights, said California's law doesn't define the specific amounts of marijuana allowed or say if patients should be registered or required to carry an identification card. That, she said, has created confusion among law enforcement officials, medical personnel, patients and lawmake rs. " Proposition 215 was pretry loosely written," said Pesulima, wh ose g roup advises grass-ro<;Jts organizations promoting medical marijuana laws. " We help other states draft tighter laws, which will make it easier for everyone invo)ved." C ali forma Sen . John Vasconcellos has sponsored a bill that would tighten state law lly establisfiing a registry or identification c~rd sys- · tern and urging consistent enforcement . The bill was put in the inactive file in the state Assembly, but Rand Martin , a consultant from Vasconcellos' office said he expects it to be approved this year. SHIRLEY, N.Y.

(AP) - In the four years since California's groundbreak.ing medicinal marijuana law, bugs have been detected , other states have been inspired and the federal government remains unhappy. Advocates say more research could help solve problems that arose from the 1996 measure, such as how best to take the drug, how much to prescribe and how law enforcement officials should treat those with a doctor's recommendation. G ina Pesulima, spokeswoman for Americans for Medical Rights, said California's law doesn't define the specific amounts of marijuana allowed or say if patients should be registered or required to carry an identification card. That, she said, has created confusion among law enforcement officials, medical personnel, patients and lawmake rs. " Proposition 215 was pretry loosely written," said Pesulima, wh ose g roup advises grass-ro<;Jts organizations promoting medical marijuana laws. " We help other states draft tighter laws, which will make it easier for everyone invo)ved." C ali forma Sen . John Vasconcellos has sponsored a bill that would tighten state law lly establisfiing a registry or identification c~rd sys- · tern and urging consistent enforcement . The bill was put in the inactive file in the state Assembly, but Rand Martin , a consultant from Vasconcellos' office said he expects it to be approved this year. SHIRLEY, N.Y.

Now he picks them mostly to give away to his friends, many of whom aren't able to get out and do it for themselves. Burton says he marvels at the berries, which go to wa ste b ec ause so few have th e ambition to get o ut and pick them. He says that almost every day he's out picking, somebody driving by sto ps and wants to buy his oerries. His response, "they're not for sale," and then he issues an invitation fo r them to get a pail and pick a few. Nobody ever shows up, he says, not even kids who could sell the bernes for a "pretty p enny." __Sin ce..he retired-from th •-K-yger Creek Power Plant about nine years ago, Burton says he has more time to pick berries.
