The home of Michael Norton was searched during the county"s annu al eradication effort, whic h got under way Wednesday. Offi cers fn the air reportedly saw a number of six-foot h1gh plants surrounding Norton's house. and paths leading from th e hou se to the manjuana patch, accordmg to Prosecutin.g Attorney John Le nte>. Each year in August, Meigs County sheriff"s depun es, and agents of the Major Crimes Task force and the <¥tio Bureau of Criminal Investigation, conduct a co un ty-w1de effort to eradicate m arijuana seen from helicopters. Often, arrests are not posstble because plant!! found on private land cannot be duectly tied to landowners or res1dems, Lent es said. On'ce inside th e Norton home , Lentes said, officers reportedly found 403 marijuana plants. Evidence suggests Norton was allegedly operating what Lentes descr ibed as an "indoor growing operation"": indoor growmg hghts. prs of labeled seeds', and loose marijuana and packages of marijuana ready for sale ·and disrnbution. Deputies also reportedly found an AKS firearm and a loaded 30-round clip in a freezer in Norton 's house . "When deputies approached the house , they heard runnmg footsteps and the sound of a freezer door slam," Lentes said . "Norton later said that he had actually contemplated shooting the officers and agents and then hunself.'" The c harge of traffick.ing in manJuana carries a firearm specification, Lentes satd, because of Norton's alleged intent to fire the gun. Local offictals have referred the case to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency and the U.S . Attorney's office. " Because of t he large number of plants, his all eged plans to ftre at officers and his believed mtent to distribute the maryuarla. the feds have been conracred," Lentt's said. If the DEA does not go forward with the prosecution of the case agai nst Norton, Lentes sa1d, additional local charges will be ftled . No other arrests have been reported sm ce the eradication began, although a number of plant s from throughout the co unry have been seiz ed .

DAYTON (AP)- State officials know that a pending law giving families access to the death investigations of their mentally disabled relatives has some problems, but they- say it is a major step in the right direction . "1'\n glad we had the opportunity to update the code," said R ep. Chuck Calvert , R-Medina, who sponsored the open records legislation. "It's a work in progress." The law not only will open records that have been virtual state secrets, but also it will serve as a guide to administrators of the state's 88 county boards of mental retardation and state employees who now control those records. Ohio law since 1988 has restricted death investigations to state and county bureaucrats. But those investigations will be available upon request to a descending list of next-of- kin effective Sept. 22. Preference will be to the "first applicable" relative on the list in order of spouse, children, parents, siblings, uncles and aunts, closest kin by blood or adoption and, finally, closest relative by marriage. State officials say the intent of creating a hierarchy of relatives is to protect the privacy of the deceased and the immediate family. That hierarc hy, however, could create problems for other relatives seeking answers should a relative higher on the list be unreachable or incapacitated, the Dayton Daily N ews reported Thursday. Christine Oliver, chieflegal counsel for the Ohio Department of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disab~ities, said the next rela- · tive in line should get the records when a closer relative is unavailable. She admitted the language is not clear on that point, but said that can be fixed easily. " We will definitely look to close up those gaps," Oliver said. "The goal· is to give access." Some advocates for the mentally disabled, however, remain concerned that the law may not be flexible enough. "It would be an unfortunate outcome · if someone who has dedicated time, energy and emotion to ensure the care of someone they love, only to find out that they do not fit into a convenient legal definition of ' next of kin' or 'first applicable,"' said Tamie Hopp. executive director for the Voice of the Retarded. a Chicago-based national watchdog gro up. Ohio's death investigation secrecy law went mostly unchallenged until JanuJry. That's when an audit by the fed eral H ealth Care Finance Administrati on found Ohio doesn't track neglect and abuse trends and that serious incidents go unreported and without investigation . Radio station host agrees to credit newspaper when usmg its stories Archaeologists look for artifacts at Parket's home TOLEDO (AP) - A radio station's morning host has agreed to give credit to the city's daily new~­ paper when he uses the newspaper's stories on the air, according to a 'fttlement reached by The Blade and WSPD-AM. Both sides will "agree to friendly competition from now on;' host Mark Standriff said Wednesday. In a lawsuit filed in September, the newspaper accused the station and Standriff of "pirating" stories and using them on the air as if they were the station 's. The agreement signed by Lucas County Common Pleas Judge Ronald Bowman on Tuesday said Standritf is free to use short excerpts and to comment about the newspaper's stories as long as RIPLEY (AP)- Archaeologists are digging this week at former slave and abolitionist John Parker's home to find out more about the man who bought his freedom and became a successful businessman and inventor. Parker, who was active in the Underground Railroad that helped slaves escape to freedom, also operated a foundry on his property in this village about 60 miles southeast of "Cincinnati. , "It's very important to save his home because it's one of the few African-American homes of abolitionists standing today," said Betty Campbell, president credit is given. The settlement said Standriff can use information from The Blade "only if he broadcasts at the same time a proper, accurate and fair attribution to The Blade." The station did not acknowledge any wrongdoing in the settlement. The newspaper agreed to drop a claim seeking unspecified damages and asking that WSPD pay The Blade aU advertising profits generated during the broadcasts at issue, said Fritz Byers, the newspaper's lawyer. "This accomplishes exactly what The Blade sought out to qo," Byers said. "It stops the piracy of . Blade news and the use of Blade news without attribution." of the John P.

MAILSUDSCRJPTIONS Inside Mel1s Count) 13 Weeks ............................................. $27.30 Fair End to highway bottleneck in sight CINCINNATI (AP) - Road builders are wrapping up a twoyear project that has fru strated commuters and made Cincinnati a bottleneck for travel on Interstates 71 ~nd 75. Relief is about two weeks away. "We know it's been an inconvenience," City Manager John Shirey said Wednesday. "We now see the light at the end of the tunnel. It truly is all coming together." Construction projects costing more than $1 billion have gobbled up downtown parking and created daily traffic Jalns. The $314 million new stretch ofl - 71, known as Fort Washington Way, runs by the nearly completed $450 million Paul Brown Stadium and the just starting $330 million Great American Ball Park. It connects 1-71 and 1-75 ar a bridge that takes traffi c from both highways over the river. Recent construction has limited traffic to one lane in each direction . Starting Aug. 14, that will be doubled to two lanes in each direction, and that will be doubl ed again by the end of the year to four lanes in eac h direction . "This is a cruCial milestone for us," said city Transportation Director John Deatrick. "There are going to be a lot of chmges in the next few weeks." O ld Fort Washington Way was a I 0-block-long tangle that separated the busirfess district from the O hio River.

DAYTON (AP)- State officials know that a pending law giving families access to the death investigations of their mentally disabled relatives has some problems, but they- say it is a major step in the right direction . "1'\n glad we had the opportunity to update the code," said R ep. Chuck Calvert , R-Medina, who sponsored the open records legislation. "It's a work in progress." The law not only will open records that have been virtual state secrets, but also it will serve as a guide to administrators of the state's 88 county boards of mental retardation and state employees who now control those records. Ohio law since 1988 has restricted death investigations to state and county bureaucrats. But those investigations will be available upon request to a descending list of next-of- kin effective Sept. 22. Preference will be to the "first applicable" relative on the list in order of spouse, children, parents, siblings, uncles and aunts, closest kin by blood or adoption and, finally, closest relative by marriage. State officials say the intent of creating a hierarchy of relatives is to protect the privacy of the deceased and the immediate family. That hierarc hy, however, could create problems for other relatives seeking answers should a relative higher on the list be unreachable or incapacitated, the Dayton Daily N ews reported Thursday. Christine Oliver, chieflegal counsel for the Ohio Department of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disab~ities, said the next rela- · tive in line should get the records when a closer relative is unavailable. She admitted the language is not clear on that point, but said that can be fixed easily. " We will definitely look to close up those gaps," Oliver said. "The goal· is to give access." Some advocates for the mentally disabled, however, remain concerned that the law may not be flexible enough. "It would be an unfortunate outcome · if someone who has dedicated time, energy and emotion to ensure the care of someone they love, only to find out that they do not fit into a convenient legal definition of ' next of kin' or 'first applicable,"' said Tamie Hopp. executive director for the Voice of the Retarded. a Chicago-based national watchdog gro up. Ohio's death investigation secrecy law went mostly unchallenged until JanuJry. That's when an audit by the fed eral H ealth Care Finance Administrati on found Ohio doesn't track neglect and abuse trends and that serious incidents go unreported and without investigation . Radio station host agrees to credit newspaper when usmg its stories Archaeologists look for artifacts at Parket's home TOLEDO (AP) - A radio station's morning host has agreed to give credit to the city's daily new~­ paper when he uses the newspaper's stories on the air, according to a 'fttlement reached by The Blade and WSPD-AM. Both sides will "agree to friendly competition from now on;' host Mark Standriff said Wednesday. In a lawsuit filed in September, the newspaper accused the station and Standriff of "pirating" stories and using them on the air as if they were the station 's. The agreement signed by Lucas County Common Pleas Judge Ronald Bowman on Tuesday said Standritf is free to use short excerpts and to comment about the newspaper's stories as long as RIPLEY (AP)- Archaeologists are digging this week at former slave and abolitionist John Parker's home to find out more about the man who bought his freedom and became a successful businessman and inventor. Parker, who was active in the Underground Railroad that helped slaves escape to freedom, also operated a foundry on his property in this village about 60 miles southeast of "Cincinnati. , "It's very important to save his home because it's one of the few African-American homes of abolitionists standing today," said Betty Campbell, president credit is given. The settlement said Standriff can use information from The Blade "only if he broadcasts at the same time a proper, accurate and fair attribution to The Blade." The station did not acknowledge any wrongdoing in the settlement. The newspaper agreed to drop a claim seeking unspecified damages and asking that WSPD pay The Blade aU advertising profits generated during the broadcasts at issue, said Fritz Byers, the newspaper's lawyer. "This accomplishes exactly what The Blade sought out to qo," Byers said. "It stops the piracy of . Blade news and the use of Blade news without attribution." of the John P.

Relief is about two weeks away. "We know it's been an inconvenience," City Manager John Shirey said Wednesday. "We now see the light at the end of the tunnel. It truly is all coming together." Construction projects costing more than $1 billion have gobbled up downtown parking and created daily traffic Jalns. The $314 million new stretch ofl - 71, known as Fort Washington Way, runs by the nearly completed $450 million Paul Brown Stadium and the just starting $330 million Great American Ball Park. It connects 1-71 and 1-75 ar a bridge that takes traffi c from both highways over the river. Recent construction has limited traffic to one lane in each direction . Starting Aug. 14, that will be doubled to two lanes in each direction, and that will be doubl ed again by the end of the year to four lanes in eac h direction . "This is a cruCial milestone for us," said city Transportation Director John Deatrick. "There are going to be a lot of chmges in the next few weeks." O ld Fort Washington Way was a I 0-block-long tangle that separated the busirfess district from the O hio River. Built m the early 1960s to handle 90,000 vehicles a day, rt was clogged with 120.000 vehicles a day by 1998 when new constru ction began. Left- and right-hand entrances and exits often necessitated quick lan e changes and scary situatio ns.

She replied, "Yes.You put raw egg yolk on face and let dry 10 minutes, then, wash off. Do every day for one month, and spots go away. You do again two times in every month for three months , and again if trouble starts." I was unconvinced, but thanked her, anyway. That night, I decided I had very little to lose since the acne was terrible and nothing else had worked. Well , Ann , Thursday, Aupst J, :ZOOO that woman knew what she was talking about . Since then,l've told several friends . about the egg-yolk cure, and the success rate has been phenomenal. Please tell your readers.They 'll b e forever grateful.- Silky Skin in Washington , D.C. Dear Silky: I faxed your letter to Dr. Mary Ellen Brademas, a dermatologist in New York, and this is her response: For many years, topical applications of Vitamin A have been prescribed by physici ans as a treatment for acne. Because egg yolks are an excellent source ofVitamin A, it is nor surprising that raw egg yolks improve acne lesions. It is interesting that the writer's lesions appeared after periods of stress. Stress can make acne worse , and can also worsen other conditions, such as ulcers and psoriasis. Sometimes, there is a simple scientific basis for success in home remedies . Dear Ann Landers: I have an Eng!ish bulldog who is quire possibly the cutest dog on the planet. He is friendly, gregarious and charming. I am not exaggerating when I say people tell me all the time what an adorable pet he is. I live in a large city with a great deal of foot traffic. When I 'am walking my dog, people gravitate toward him. Please warn your readers NOT to pet any dog without asking the owner first. Some dogs may bite or frighten people. In my case, I am concerned for my dog's safety. People have approached him with lit rigarettes in their hands, have tried to lift him (he weighs 62 pounds), and have called him into traffic to say "hello" and any number of other idiotic gestures that put him in danger. No one would dream of handling a pe"o n's child without first asking permission . Please inform your readers to give dog owners the same courtesy. -Scooter's Dad in Seattle Dear Seattle: I hope you have a son SOCIETY NEWS AND NO.T ES Bush, Gore visits indicative of area's role in election ' George W. Bush's stops in Columbus and Charleston within a matter of days, and AI Gore's various swing$ through the Buckeye State, are indicative of an important fact. .Ohio and West Virginia are assuming importance in the candidates' strategy to attract votes. Bush is looking to make inroads in the Mountain State because of itS traditional leaning to Democratic candidates. Gore hopes to count on that same support from West Virginia voters on Nov. 7 . Ohio with its large population base has historically been desired by any candidate. Buckeye voters favored Bill Clinton in the last two elections. Again, Gore is counting on them to back his bid for the White House whil e Bush hopes the pendulum will swing his way. The candidates' visibility in both stares is not just pre- convention hype. Both want to be a presence because with combin ed ele ctoral votes, Ohio and West Virginia play a role in the selection of a president. Let's not forget that West Virginia put John F. Kennedy over the top in 1960. Both states also have a strong union presence, from miners to edu cators, representi.ng a significant portion of men1hership in national organizations .That alone is en ough to send a candidate scurrying to heavily populated centers to meet, greet and hopefully win som e c onverts. This fact has been recognized by Ohio officials, who move the statewide primary trom May to March every presidential election year to be part of a Super Tuesday block of votes that help deterntine who is the front-runner for the ~onventi o n . After the nominations are official this month, Bush and Gore will again hit the trail and will ·n o doubt be seen in bo th states. Aside from the publicity value th e area gets from th ese visits, they are .also instructive for the candidates. They learn something about the problems and_ concerns faced by voters -ill either State. .But if the candidates swerved away from the state capitols and m,ajor cities and came to an area like ours, then they'd get an educa,tion on what average Americans are en durin g. If Ohio and West Virginia are that important to the campaign, perhaps George W. and AI had b etter listen. ~ .Dear Ann Landers: A column you wrote in 1992 changed my life in a small but important way. I hope you will run it again for others who are s11ffering with acne.-- Nameless in Charlotte, N .C. Dear Charlotte: I'm pleased that column helped you. H ere it is for others who suffer with the same problem: Dear Ann Landers: In 1969, I started my first year as a university student. Soon after, I developed a severe case of acne, and I am sure stress had a lot to do with it. I went to three doctors and spent hundreds of dollars on medicine that was totally ineffective. The sununer of 1970, I went to lunch with a friend at the World Bank in Washington , D.C., and while in the ladies' room, a beautiful East Indian woman wearing a sari gave me a smile. When I responded, she touched my face and said, "Oh, no. Red ugly spots on pretty face.

George W Bush's · selection of former Def~nse Secretary Dick Cheney as his running mate was a tilt to the right. The GOP convention needs to point back to the center. Cheney is a policy heavyweight and a man of sober probity,' but as Dem ocrats have gleefiilly pointed out, his House voting record was far to the right of center. Having rigidly opposed the Department of Education, sanctions against apartheid in South Africa, abortion even in cases of rape, increased funding for Head Start and all forms of gun control, Cheney offered Democrats rich opporrunities for attack.s on Bush . And the Democrats rook fiiii advantage, staging events and opening ~p a slick Web site to expose and attack Cheney's 1980s opposition to vanous health programs, family leave legislation , labor and civil rights laws. "He's all-ice, charming guy," one Cor~ adviser said_of Ch~ n ey. "But his recon:Lmakes stark and clear the diflerences between Bush and us on the issues." "The ideology that C heney represents isn't that of the 'different kind of R epublican' that Bush has been proJecting, but the kind most of the country finds too far to the right ." The Gore adviser added,'' It's been our belief fi:om the beginning that Bush's compassionate conservatism is all facade and wmdow dressing. Cheney reinforct:s the point." Republicans did not seem prepared fqr the Democratic onslaught. , As JeffTey Birnbaum of Fortune magazine observed on Fox News C hannel , "Cheney was in charge of vetting Bush's other vice presidenti al possibilities. Someone should have vetted him ." Chen ey justified most of hi s votes by saying the country faced budget deficits at the time. H e did not recant or even declare hirmelf a convert to "c01npassionatc co nservatism ." The Uu sh campaign didn 't seem fazed by J)emocrari c attacks on C hen ey, either, declaring Morton Kondracke NEA COLUMNIST them nothing more than examples of customary negativism on the part ofVice President AI Gore's campaign. Judging by the Gallup 'poll taken after Cheney's appointment, R epublicans were right not to worry. Bush's lead over Gore among likely voters jumped to 11 points. Still, a new Pew R esean:h Center poll indicates that, despite help fi:om the media , Bush has yet to establish in the public's mind that he is a " diff'erent kind of Republican ." A joint study by Pew, the Project for Excellence in Journalism and the Committee of Concerned Journalists shows that Bush has received corisistently more f.worable coverage than Gore has, with 40 percent of stories reinforcing the Bush themes ofbipartisanship, compassion, reform and "difference.'' Yet, accordmg to Pew, only 21 pen:ent of voters think Bush's views are different from those of traditional GOP lead~"· w hile 62 percent tloink they are the same. Only 28 percent think he has tailored his appeal to reach o ut to nontraditional GOP voters. Rather, the dominant impression of Bush - held by 54 percent of voters - is that he has relied on his family connectio ns tu' get ahead. C hen ey, having been Bush's father's defense secretary and the beneficiary of the form er president's lobbying, presumably will only reinforce the impression that Bush IS primarily his father's heir. Perhaps signifi cantly, in view of the Pew findings, the Bush-led Republican Party is going out of its way to run a conclave in Phil~delphi a, advertised as " not your father's convention." The themes will be upbeat, not negative. Both the GOP platform and the speaker's platform in the convention hall have "had their edgel rounded," according to Bush aides. While retaining traditional GOP language on abortion, the policy platform goes out of its · way to emphasize what Republicans will do for education and women's health. And the con vention hall platform has b een reduced to look like a living room on television. Speakers will emphasize ethnic diversity, optimism and bipartisanship. There will be speeches and singing in Spanish. Jan Bullock, widow of former Texas Lt. Gov. Bob Bullock (D), is expected to deliver an emotional recounting of Bush and her husband's bond . ·across party lines. ' The convention theme, " Renewing Anwrica's Purpose.Together," sounds vague and gauzy, but Bush aides claim that by Thu"day night, Americans will have a, sense that Bush means to build a c6untry with ends beyond economic well-being, including quality education and retirefnent· security. So, GOP atmospherics will be centrist, upbeat and forward-looking. Supposedly, there will be limited' disparagement of Democrats, including Bill Clinto n and Gore. Bush should get a bo unce and may lead Gore by 15 to 20 points next week. Uut elections arc decided o n policy as well as mood. , So when Bush makes his acceptance speech on T hutsday, he needs to say something about health poli cy, taxes and Social Security that will trump D emocratic offeri ngs and sur vive Democratic attacks.

FAMILY MEDICINE A second-degree or partial . Sunburn lotions thickness burn produces damage deeper into the skin and can be ease the pain, but very painfuL Even air blowing the burn can hurt. In healing takes time across addition to the pain, the skin Question: I forgot to put on sunscreen when I was working in the garden the other day and got a sunburn on my neck and arms . Should I have gone to my doctor? Is there anything he could do to help me get over this quicker' Answer: Sunburn is produced when sunlight 'damages the deeper growing layers of the skin. The resulting irritation to the skin, blood vessels , and associated tissue causes the inflammation we call sunburn. In addition to being painful , the burn can interfere with the skin's functions of protecting us from injury and helping maintain the ideal environment for the body 's . cells. The skin is rich with nerve endings. These keep us informed about the environment around us by allowing us to feel the size, shape and texture of everyday objects as well as sense temperature and Jlain. The eain ofsunburn aevelops when these nerve cells are stimulated as part of the inflammation- of the sunburn. The label "sunburn" only tells that the damage came from being out in the sun, not the extent of the injury. The health problems associated with burns are related to the amount - the area - of skin involved, the depth of burn, the individual's age and preexisting health conditions (e.g., diabetes) that may be present. The specific cause of the burn - the sun, boiling water, chemical injury or <?ther cause - is. not important . The extent of skin damage is what counts and also what determines if you should see your doctor about it. Typically, sunburn is painful with or without being touched. The " sunburned" look and discomfort improve after two o r three days. The dead , damaged skin usually peels off in a week or two. This type of burn is referred to as a superficial, or first degree , burn. will blister. Healing usually takes • two or three weeks, and a permanent mild scar or change in skin color may sometimes result:' As a general guideline, if your . burn doesn't seem any worse ' than mild · sunburn, you can probably take care of it yourself, · Protect the skin - stay out o( the sun and take aspirin; · acetaminophen or ibuprofen for the discomfort. Don't put butter · or other "gooey" substances on · the burn . There are several non-" prescription "sunburn" lotions' · and sprays that are soothing, but they will not hasten the healing of damaged skin. ' If you feel sick because of the . burn, or if it covers a large per-· centage of your body, you . should see your doctor.

Fortunately, · these most severe burns don't happen with sunburn . Here are · two tips that will " help keep you from having to_ deal with the pain of sunbprn. this summer: • Avoid being outdoors during the day when the sun's rays are the most direct - between 10 a.m . and 2 p.m. • When you go outside during the day, protect your skin with clothing or by putting a number 15, or higher, sunscreen lotion on the exposed areas of your body. Remember, a thin shirt or a water-soaked one doesn't pro- · vide much protection.

She replied, "Yes.You put raw egg yolk on face and let dry 10 minutes, then, wash off. Do every day for one month, and spots go away. You do again two times in every month for three months , and again if trouble starts." I was unconvinced, but thanked her, anyway. That night, I decided I had very little to lose since the acne was terrible and nothing else had worked. Well , Ann , Thursday, Aupst J, :ZOOO that woman knew what she was talking about . Since then,l've told several friends . about the egg-yolk cure, and the success rate has been phenomenal. Please tell your readers.They 'll b e forever grateful.- Silky Skin in Washington , D.C. Dear Silky: I faxed your letter to Dr. Mary Ellen Brademas, a dermatologist in New York, and this is her response: For many years, topical applications of Vitamin A have been prescribed by physici ans as a treatment for acne. Because egg yolks are an excellent source ofVitamin A, it is nor surprising that raw egg yolks improve acne lesions. It is interesting that the writer's lesions appeared after periods of stress. Stress can make acne worse , and can also worsen other conditions, such as ulcers and psoriasis. Sometimes, there is a simple scientific basis for success in home remedies . Dear Ann Landers: I have an Eng!ish bulldog who is quire possibly the cutest dog on the planet. He is friendly, gregarious and charming. I am not exaggerating when I say people tell me all the time what an adorable pet he is. I live in a large city with a great deal of foot traffic. When I 'am walking my dog, people gravitate toward him. Please warn your readers NOT to pet any dog without asking the owner first. Some dogs may bite or frighten people. In my case, I am concerned for my dog's safety. People have approached him with lit rigarettes in their hands, have tried to lift him (he weighs 62 pounds), and have called him into traffic to say "hello" and any number of other idiotic gestures that put him in danger. No one would dream of handling a pe"o n's child without first asking permission . Please inform your readers to give dog owners the same courtesy. -Scooter's Dad in Seattle Dear Seattle: I hope you have a son SOCIETY NEWS AND NO.T ES Bush, Gore visits indicative of area's role in election ' George W. Bush's stops in Columbus and Charleston within a matter of days, and AI Gore's various swing$ through the Buckeye State, are indicative of an important fact. .Ohio and West Virginia are assuming importance in the candidates' strategy to attract votes. Bush is looking to make inroads in the Mountain State because of itS traditional leaning to Democratic candidates. Gore hopes to count on that same support from West Virginia voters on Nov. 7 . Ohio with its large population base has historically been desired by any candidate. Buckeye voters favored Bill Clinton in the last two elections. Again, Gore is counting on them to back his bid for the White House whil e Bush hopes the pendulum will swing his way. The candidates' visibility in both stares is not just pre- convention hype. Both want to be a presence because with combin ed ele ctoral votes, Ohio and West Virginia play a role in the selection of a president. Let's not forget that West Virginia put John F. Kennedy over the top in 1960. Both states also have a strong union presence, from miners to edu cators, representi.ng a significant portion of men1hership in national organizations .That alone is en ough to send a candidate scurrying to heavily populated centers to meet, greet and hopefully win som e c onverts. This fact has been recognized by Ohio officials, who move the statewide primary trom May to March every presidential election year to be part of a Super Tuesday block of votes that help deterntine who is the front-runner for the ~onventi o n . After the nominations are official this month, Bush and Gore will again hit the trail and will ·n o doubt be seen in bo th states. Aside from the publicity value th e area gets from th ese visits, they are .also instructive for the candidates. They learn something about the problems and_ concerns faced by voters -ill either State. .But if the candidates swerved away from the state capitols and m,ajor cities and came to an area like ours, then they'd get an educa,tion on what average Americans are en durin g. If Ohio and West Virginia are that important to the campaign, perhaps George W. and AI had b etter listen. ~ .Dear Ann Landers: A column you wrote in 1992 changed my life in a small but important way. I hope you will run it again for others who are s11ffering with acne.-- Nameless in Charlotte, N .C. Dear Charlotte: I'm pleased that column helped you. H ere it is for others who suffer with the same problem: Dear Ann Landers: In 1969, I started my first year as a university student. Soon after, I developed a severe case of acne, and I am sure stress had a lot to do with it. I went to three doctors and spent hundreds of dollars on medicine that was totally ineffective. The sununer of 1970, I went to lunch with a friend at the World Bank in Washington , D.C., and while in the ladies' room, a beautiful East Indian woman wearing a sari gave me a smile. When I responded, she touched my face and said, "Oh, no. Red ugly spots on pretty face.

George W Bush's · selection of former Def~nse Secretary Dick Cheney as his running mate was a tilt to the right. The GOP convention needs to point back to the center. Cheney is a policy heavyweight and a man of sober probity,' but as Dem ocrats have gleefiilly pointed out, his House voting record was far to the right of center. Having rigidly opposed the Department of Education, sanctions against apartheid in South Africa, abortion even in cases of rape, increased funding for Head Start and all forms of gun control, Cheney offered Democrats rich opporrunities for attack.s on Bush . And the Democrats rook fiiii advantage, staging events and opening ~p a slick Web site to expose and attack Cheney's 1980s opposition to vanous health programs, family leave legislation , labor and civil rights laws. "He's all-ice, charming guy," one Cor~ adviser said_of Ch~ n ey. "But his recon:Lmakes stark and clear the diflerences between Bush and us on the issues." "The ideology that C heney represents isn't that of the 'different kind of R epublican' that Bush has been proJecting, but the kind most of the country finds too far to the right ." The Gore adviser added,'' It's been our belief fi:om the beginning that Bush's compassionate conservatism is all facade and wmdow dressing. Cheney reinforct:s the point." Republicans did not seem prepared fqr the Democratic onslaught. , As JeffTey Birnbaum of Fortune magazine observed on Fox News C hannel , "Cheney was in charge of vetting Bush's other vice presidenti al possibilities. Someone should have vetted him ." Chen ey justified most of hi s votes by saying the country faced budget deficits at the time. H e did not recant or even declare hirmelf a convert to "c01npassionatc co nservatism ." The Uu sh campaign didn 't seem fazed by J)emocrari c attacks on C hen ey, either, declaring Morton Kondracke NEA COLUMNIST them nothing more than examples of customary negativism on the part ofVice President AI Gore's campaign. Judging by the Gallup 'poll taken after Cheney's appointment, R epublicans were right not to worry. Bush's lead over Gore among likely voters jumped to 11 points. Still, a new Pew R esean:h Center poll indicates that, despite help fi:om the media , Bush has yet to establish in the public's mind that he is a " diff'erent kind of Republican ." A joint study by Pew, the Project for Excellence in Journalism and the Committee of Concerned Journalists shows that Bush has received corisistently more f.worable coverage than Gore has, with 40 percent of stories reinforcing the Bush themes ofbipartisanship, compassion, reform and "difference.'' Yet, accordmg to Pew, only 21 pen:ent of voters think Bush's views are different from those of traditional GOP lead~"· w hile 62 percent tloink they are the same. Only 28 percent think he has tailored his appeal to reach o ut to nontraditional GOP voters. Rather, the dominant impression of Bush - held by 54 percent of voters - is that he has relied on his family connectio ns tu' get ahead. C hen ey, having been Bush's father's defense secretary and the beneficiary of the form er president's lobbying, presumably will only reinforce the impression that Bush IS primarily his father's heir. Perhaps signifi cantly, in view of the Pew findings, the Bush-led Republican Party is going out of its way to run a conclave in Phil~delphi a, advertised as " not your father's convention." The themes will be upbeat, not negative. Both the GOP platform and the speaker's platform in the convention hall have "had their edgel rounded," according to Bush aides. While retaining traditional GOP language on abortion, the policy platform goes out of its · way to emphasize what Republicans will do for education and women's health. And the con vention hall platform has b een reduced to look like a living room on television. Speakers will emphasize ethnic diversity, optimism and bipartisanship. There will be speeches and singing in Spanish. Jan Bullock, widow of former Texas Lt. Gov. Bob Bullock (D), is expected to deliver an emotional recounting of Bush and her husband's bond . ·across party lines. ' The convention theme, " Renewing Anwrica's Purpose.Together," sounds vague and gauzy, but Bush aides claim that by Thu"day night, Americans will have a, sense that Bush means to build a c6untry with ends beyond economic well-being, including quality education and retirefnent· security. So, GOP atmospherics will be centrist, upbeat and forward-looking. Supposedly, there will be limited' disparagement of Democrats, including Bill Clinto n and Gore. Bush should get a bo unce and may lead Gore by 15 to 20 points next week. Uut elections arc decided o n policy as well as mood. , So when Bush makes his acceptance speech on T hutsday, he needs to say something about health poli cy, taxes and Social Security that will trump D emocratic offeri ngs and sur vive Democratic attacks.

FAMILY MEDICINE A second-degree or partial . Sunburn lotions thickness burn produces damage deeper into the skin and can be ease the pain, but very painfuL Even air blowing the burn can hurt. In healing takes time across addition to the pain, the skin Question: I forgot to put on sunscreen when I was working in the garden the other day and got a sunburn on my neck and arms . Should I have gone to my doctor? Is there anything he could do to help me get over this quicker' Answer: Sunburn is produced when sunlight 'damages the deeper growing layers of the skin. The resulting irritation to the skin, blood vessels , and associated tissue causes the inflammation we call sunburn. In addition to being painful , the burn can interfere with the skin's functions of protecting us from injury and helping maintain the ideal environment for the body 's . cells. The skin is rich with nerve endings. These keep us informed about the environment around us by allowing us to feel the size, shape and texture of everyday objects as well as sense temperature and Jlain. The eain ofsunburn aevelops when these nerve cells are stimulated as part of the inflammation- of the sunburn. The label "sunburn" only tells that the damage came from being out in the sun, not the extent of the injury. The health problems associated with burns are related to the amount - the area - of skin involved, the depth of burn, the individual's age and preexisting health conditions (e.g., diabetes) that may be present. The specific cause of the burn - the sun, boiling water, chemical injury or <?ther cause - is. not important . The extent of skin damage is what counts and also what determines if you should see your doctor about it. Typically, sunburn is painful with or without being touched. The " sunburned" look and discomfort improve after two o r three days. The dead , damaged skin usually peels off in a week or two. This type of burn is referred to as a superficial, or first degree , burn. will blister. Healing usually takes • two or three weeks, and a permanent mild scar or change in skin color may sometimes result:' As a general guideline, if your . burn doesn't seem any worse ' than mild · sunburn, you can probably take care of it yourself, · Protect the skin - stay out o( the sun and take aspirin; · acetaminophen or ibuprofen for the discomfort. Don't put butter · or other "gooey" substances on · the burn . There are several non-" prescription "sunburn" lotions' · and sprays that are soothing, but they will not hasten the healing of damaged skin. ' If you feel sick because of the . burn, or if it covers a large per-· centage of your body, you . should see your doctor.

Fortunately, · these most severe burns don't happen with sunburn . Here are · two tips that will " help keep you from having to_ deal with the pain of sunbprn. this summer: • Avoid being outdoors during the day when the sun's rays are the most direct - between 10 a.m . and 2 p.m. • When you go outside during the day, protect your skin with clothing or by putting a number 15, or higher, sunscreen lotion on the exposed areas of your body. Remember, a thin shirt or a water-soaked one doesn't pro- · vide much protection.

NASCAR NOTEBOOK NFL CAMP NOTEBOOK · ,, ' :Blake wraps up Sai·nts starting QB job ; BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Jeff Blake sewed up the New Orleans Saints' No. t quarterback job when he signed his contr:~ct . It's the rest of the depth chart that is up for grabs. Ten-year veteran Billy Joe Tolliver and Jake Delhomme. who's been in the league two yean, but has taken few snaps. were considered the leading contenders for the Nos. 2 and 3 spots. Then, this week, the Saints traded to get Aaron Brooks, a fourth- round pick for the Green Bay Packers last year. Also in the mix is Marc Bulger, a sixth-round pick This year. Saints coach Jim· Haslett, then the defensive coordinator for the Steelers, said Pittsburgh considered Brooks as a second-round pick. Saints general manager Randy Mueller, who last year was the vice president of.football operations for Seattle, said they also con~ lidered Brooks in the second round. .- "I've liked the kid," Mueller said. " He's a big kid that runs well , "We were all unanimous that this kind of kid doesn't come around that often." · Brooks joined the Saints on }:"uesday in jacksonville when they practiced against the Jaguan. He knows the basic offensive concept, but until Wednesday was using the Green Bay cadence, Haslett said. · So where does that leave the other three quarterbacks? Haslett said they aren't ·necessarily fighting over just one job. · '"We've also talked about carrying four quarterbacks," Haslett said." A lot of teams do that. We did that in Pittsburgh last year. Carolina did it. There are teams that do that all the time." Despite Bro,o ks' lack of experience, Haslett hopes to get him into Saturday's preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings . Lions ·- AU-Pro defensive end Robert Porcher ~greed to a one-year tender offer of $4.253 million with the Detroit Lions on Wednesday, ebding a holdout that dragged on nearly six NASCAR from Page Bl taken nine - Gordon say. the car is at a disadvantage. Because of aerodynamics, it's slower than the Fords on the longest N ASCAR tr:~cks. ' That didq't seem like much of a problem in 1997, when Chevys won just 11 races - 10 of them by Gordon . So, what's the problem now? months. Porcher's signing was just in time as defensive tackle Luther Elliss had surgery and will be out for at least two weeks. The agreement means the Lions can retain the franchise player designation while beginning talks with Porcher on an extended contract. But the holdout almost certainly cost Porcher some money. The Lions' final offer ro Porcher was $35 million for five years. including a $12 million signing bonus. Lions general manager Chuck Schmidt said it was the largest contract ever offered by the club. Porcher, an eight-year veteran who led the NFL in sack yardage a season ago with 106 , was asking for $41.5 million with a $15 million bonus through his South Carolina-based agent, · Ricky Letft. He also was seeking another $2 million guaranteed later in the contract. Lions coach Bobby Ross said Porcher, who spends the offseason in Orlando, Fla., was expected in camp in time for practice Thursday, but won't play in Friday night's exhibition opener against New Engl~nd . "Robert always keeps himself in pretty good shape," Ross said. "But we're talking football shape. I think he'll nee~ four days of intensive work. Then, maybe he'll be ready for next week's game against Buffalo." EUiss had surgery to remove bone chips from his left elbow. The procedure was not considered seriom, but it will prevent him from playing in the first two or three exhibition games. Broncos Defensive tackle Trevor Pryce will report to training camp Friday after a two-week holdout.

In recent months, Rockefeller has been sharply critical of the International Trade Coinmission regarding the imbalances that Am erican manufacturers face by foreign dumping. The Mason tounry plant has a positive track record with ESOPs. In the late 1980s, Rockefeller worked with employees to purchase th e plant from Foote Mineral. That venture was such a success that employees were able to sell their share at a substantial profit to investors from Pennsylvania who were iitvolved in forming the ESOP. "Since the plant closed, we haw been trying to determine if we could compete with China and other low-wage countries by using a highly motivated and skilled work force," USWA Local 5171 President Jeff Ridgway said. "Our union and plant engineers have not left a stone unturned in searching for ways to cut costs." f "Through out analysis , we believe we could indeed compete in the global economy," said Tim Dean, sub di stri ct director, USWA District ll. " We have several challenges ahead of us, but feel that with a coordinated effort from all parties, it can be done."
