' The move marks a potential widening of the restrictions on use of the meal in Europe following a growing number "f cases of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy, which scientists have linked to the feeding of · animal parts to other animals . Vegetable-based feeds such as soy meal are expected to be in greater demand as a result. The December contract leapt $7 .50 to $186.90 a short ton. "The Germans and the French are pushing the E. U to take action," said Victor Lespinasse, grain trader with A.G. Edwards in Chicago. "The market was up again (Friday) on speculation those efforts will pay off and we'll see a ban throughout Europe:• Germany's move follows the agriculture ministry's confirma-. tion Friday of the fir.ot case of a BSE infection in Germany. "If a universal ban is adopted the E .U . will need an additional 3.5 million-4.5 miUion metric tons of a meal replacement annually," said Brian Scott, a grain trader with RJ. O'Brien in Chicago. In the 1998-99 marketing year, the E .U. consumed 24.67 million metric tons of soybean meal, according to the U .S. Department of Agriculture.

City policies differ on collecting taxes on lottery winnings CLEVELAND (AP) - Columbus has the most lottery winners in the state, yet the city IS one of a handful in Ohio that don't collect taxes on the winnings. Despite a I 996 state Supreme Court ruling that gives local tax departments authority to collect on the winnings, Colun1bus has bypassed the chance to get nearly $7 million in taxes on $334.S million in lottery winnings in the last five years, The Plain Dealer reported Sunday. In contrast, Cleveland has collected nearly $6 million from its ]orrery winners. " But. taxing people is not a real popular thing," sa<d Melinda Frank, Income Tax Division administrator. Columbus taxes only earned income, not gambling winnings, she said. Cincinnati, lorain and Toledo residents don't have to turn over any of their winnings, either. Som~: don't want to take advantage of their residents' good fortune.

James]. Lawrence, president of the nonprofit Oriana House, has donated money to the campaigns of most Akron and Summit County judges during the past six years, the Akron Beacon Journal reported Sunday. Judicial candidates can't take more tban S250 from anyone, nor may candidates accept donations from people who do business with the court. Although •J udges often sentence offenders to programs run by Oriana House, Lawrence said his contributions were "personal" and that he doesn't have any personal financial dealings With the tions to Summit County judges, one JUdicial candidate, Paul Gallagher, has said contributions from Oriana House are improper. During his run for common pleas judge this fall, Gallagher rece1ved a $100 c heck from Lawrence. He returned the check with a note thanking Lawrence for his support, but saying ac cepting it would be an ethics violation. Gallagher later learned that his opponent, Common Pleas Judge James Murphy also had gotten a check from Lawrence. Gallagher never publicly said anything about the contribution.

Former county chief of staff William Hartung hasn't paid any of the $305,000 he was ordered to repay the government about a year ago, the Akron Beacon Journal md on .Saturday. Seven people were convicted of various charges in the scandal but only Michael Smith, a welfare consultant convicted ofbribtng the county's former welfare director, has made full restitution. Smith, who served eight months in federal prison, has repaid $594,441 in restitution and a $30,000 fine. Hartung sent a letter and financial affidavit to a judge in June that said he was nearly broke. The letter also said he could no longer afford his lawyer and wanted court-appointed Obituaries counsel. Hartung, who is serving a 2 1 /2-year Richard Russell prison sentence, made $73,500 a year when MIDDLEPORT- Richard W "Speedball" Russell, 71, of Middleport, doed unexpectedly on Saturday, Nov. 25, 2000, at Holzer Medical Center in Gallipolis.

City policies differ on collecting taxes on lottery winnings CLEVELAND (AP) - Columbus has the most lottery winners in the state, yet the city IS one of a handful in Ohio that don't collect taxes on the winnings. Despite a I 996 state Supreme Court ruling that gives local tax departments authority to collect on the winnings, Colun1bus has bypassed the chance to get nearly $7 million in taxes on $334.S million in lottery winnings in the last five years, The Plain Dealer reported Sunday. In contrast, Cleveland has collected nearly $6 million from its ]orrery winners. " But. taxing people is not a real popular thing," sa<d Melinda Frank, Income Tax Division administrator. Columbus taxes only earned income, not gambling winnings, she said. Cincinnati, lorain and Toledo residents don't have to turn over any of their winnings, either. Som~: don't want to take advantage of their residents' good fortune.

James]. Lawrence, president of the nonprofit Oriana House, has donated money to the campaigns of most Akron and Summit County judges during the past six years, the Akron Beacon Journal reported Sunday. Judicial candidates can't take more tban S250 from anyone, nor may candidates accept donations from people who do business with the court. Although •J udges often sentence offenders to programs run by Oriana House, Lawrence said his contributions were "personal" and that he doesn't have any personal financial dealings With the tions to Summit County judges, one JUdicial candidate, Paul Gallagher, has said contributions from Oriana House are improper. During his run for common pleas judge this fall, Gallagher rece1ved a $100 c heck from Lawrence. He returned the check with a note thanking Lawrence for his support, but saying ac cepting it would be an ethics violation. Gallagher later learned that his opponent, Common Pleas Judge James Murphy also had gotten a check from Lawrence. Gallagher never publicly said anything about the contribution. "( didn't do it before the election because I thought it would look like . I was whining," Gallagher said. "Now, 1 don't want to do it because it would look like I' 111 a sore loser." winners -· so we don't go after anyone:: said Lori Maiorana, Lorain's treasurer.

Homes under construction. become theft targets TOLEDO (AP) - Thieves· are targeting homes under construction, stealing everthing from workers' tools to lo,1mber to kilchen cabinet1, wiring, plumbing, and bathtubs. Stealing has become such a problem that builders and developers have considered on-site guards and surveillance cameras. And insurance agents are urging owners of new-home sites to . carry special policy riders to cover suc h theft. More than -SO percent of the builders surveyed a few years ago had· experienced problems with theft, according to the National Association of Home Builders in Washington. The maJority of the thefts involved lumber and workers' tools but the region's list also includes a whirlpool and riding mower. While doing· surveillance ·work in ,the Toledo area, Lt.

OHIO VIEWS Loophole · - t! lit Line of attack should be closed by state legislature • The (Canton) Repository : The election, in Ohio should be the la~r in which i~ is 1ega1 to anonymously attack a candidate 's character. The new Legislature's' first act should be -to close a loophole in Ohio cam paign tinance laws that allows the practice to flourish .• Voters had the good sense to see through a multimillion- dollar ad effort by "Citizens for a Strong Ohio" to persuade voters that Ohio Supreme Court Justice Alice Robie Resnick is in the hip pocket of special interests. The ads attacking Democrat Resnick remained on tdevision despite challenges because Ohio .Elections Commission members held their noses and declared the ads legal , though. in tl}e words of a Republican member, the ads were false and defamatory. ' The ads slid through a loophole in the. disclosure law by not expressly calling for Resnick's defeat or the election of her opponent. Citizens for a Strong Ohio, which is bankrolled by the Ohio Chamber of Conunerce, is listed with the Internal Revenue Service as an "educational" group that doesn't advocate the election or defeat of candidates, and so it need not list the source or amount of its funding. After the election, both Chief Justice Thomas Moyer and Attorney General Betty Montgomery called for changes in the law to require full disclosure of contributions. We hope the next top state official to support that reform is Gov. Bob Taft, who made a regret· table decision to support the inappropriate efforts of Citizens for a Strong' OhiO to influence the election . • The (Toledo) Blade: The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio isn't the regulatory watchdog it once was, but it deserves credit for continuing to hound our disconnected telephone co~1pany, Ameritech. Already holding a $122 million fine for poor service over Ameritech 's corporate head, the PUCO has blocked the company temporarily from sending $297 .7 million in dividends to its San Antonio, Texas , parent, S~C Communications. The agency also is to hire an independent auditor to peruse Ameritech 's books. and will actually bill the phon.e company to r more than $10. 000 in overtime incurred by state employees, who have fielded almost twice as many c ustomer complaints in September and October than for all of 19Y9. • The Dayton Daily News: A comprehensive revision of Ohio's juvenile-justice code, sent to the governor'~ desk this week, addresses a serious disconnect in stat·~ . criminal laws under which young offenders have to be treated either as juveniles or adults. Under the legislanon, judges could impose so-c alkd blended sentences, in which juveniles convictt>d of violent acts could be sent fir.;;t to juvenile centers and latc.:r transferred to :tdult prison". Gov. [lob Taft has indicated that he will srgn the brll, as he should. Although increases seem to have slowed, more you th> under I H are committing violent acts th,m two or rhrt't' decades ago. This bill allows j udges. when warranted, to hold a teen-.l!!;eT fully accmrmable for a viOlent crime. .,I HE.NTOFF'S VIEW Does capital punishment serve as a deterrent? Not all opponents of ca pital punishmt·nt speak with one voice. Some, like Justice Harry Dlackmun, who supported the death penalty during most of his term on the Court, finally decided he would "no longer tinker with the machinery of death" because the ultimate punishment was so randomly applied. That is, some of those on death row had not received due process - basic fairness - in their trials , or in their appeals. Others, such as the late Catholic cardinals Joseph Bernardin and John Cardinal O'Connor, were against capital punishment because they believed that to be pro-life, one must adhere to a consistent ethic of life - being against abortion, euthanasia and capital punishment . On the other hand, supporters of the death penalty often agree with George W. Bush and · AI Gore. During their third presidential debate, both candidates were asked why they were for the death penalty. Both answered immediately:" It's a deterrence." Without capital pu'n ishment, homicides would increase. Neither [lush nor Gore gave any factual evidence to support their position. They couldn't, beca use the great weight of evidence is against them. In I 996, the Journal of Criminal Law and Criminul9gy reported that a survey of 70 leading American criminologists found that over 81l percent of them said that the death penalty does not lower homicide rates. More definitively, on Sept. 22 of this year, an extens ively researched New York Times survey revealed that the 12 states without .a death penalty have homicide rates below t)lc national average. As Ri chard Dieter, executive director of the D eath Penalty lnform .rtion Center points out, " The average murder rate per lllll,O!III populatipn in 1998 among states with the death penalty w~s 6.2.

Bush's murder rate among states without the death penalty was only 3.2. A look at neighboring death penalty and non-death-penalty states shows similar trends." Furthermore? with regard to the uneven fairness of the trials, I have reported on death penalty ca~es for some 40 years, and It is an undeniable fact that since most of those on death ·row cannot afford experienced lawyers, many of th ose cases arc handled by inexperi c..:nccd court-appointed attorneys. sontc with little or no previous cxperil'nce in capltal cases. As reporter Richard Perez- Pena noted in The New York Times (Fe h. 12, "1100): "There are states like Texas. Alabama and Georgia, where the death penalty is' frequently imposed, and th e re is no pubhc detender system at all. Instead, judges appoint lawyers for poor defe1idants and set their compensation, often at low rates." Often very low rate!, with tmnimal funds for investigators and forensic experts.

Five years ago, I answered a personal ad, and that was the beginning of a three-year relationship with a prison inmate. I was a lonely widow, and "Munroe" said his wife divorced him when he went to prison. He asked Jne to visit. and we became very close. Munroe told me he needed a good lawyer to help him get parole. l gave him $2,500 to hire one. The lawyer didn't help. Munroe then asked for money for · a second lawyer, and I gave him another, $2,500: That lawyer didn't help, either. Next, Munroe needed $500 for dental work and S300 for glasses. He kept losing his glasses, and I sent him money three times to replace them . He then asked for money for shoes and socks and a new mattress and prllow.

OHIO VIEWS Loophole · - t! lit Line of attack should be closed by state legislature • The (Canton) Repository : The election, in Ohio should be the la~r in which i~ is 1ega1 to anonymously attack a candidate 's character. The new Legislature's' first act should be -to close a loophole in Ohio cam paign tinance laws that allows the practice to flourish .• Voters had the good sense to see through a multimillion- dollar ad effort by "Citizens for a Strong Ohio" to persuade voters that Ohio Supreme Court Justice Alice Robie Resnick is in the hip pocket of special interests. The ads attacking Democrat Resnick remained on tdevision despite challenges because Ohio .Elections Commission members held their noses and declared the ads legal , though. in tl}e words of a Republican member, the ads were false and defamatory. ' The ads slid through a loophole in the. disclosure law by not expressly calling for Resnick's defeat or the election of her opponent. Citizens for a Strong Ohio, which is bankrolled by the Ohio Chamber of Conunerce, is listed with the Internal Revenue Service as an "educational" group that doesn't advocate the election or defeat of candidates, and so it need not list the source or amount of its funding. After the election, both Chief Justice Thomas Moyer and Attorney General Betty Montgomery called for changes in the law to require full disclosure of contributions. We hope the next top state official to support that reform is Gov. Bob Taft, who made a regret· table decision to support the inappropriate efforts of Citizens for a Strong' OhiO to influence the election . • The (Toledo) Blade: The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio isn't the regulatory watchdog it once was, but it deserves credit for continuing to hound our disconnected telephone co~1pany, Ameritech. Already holding a $122 million fine for poor service over Ameritech 's corporate head, the PUCO has blocked the company temporarily from sending $297 .7 million in dividends to its San Antonio, Texas , parent, S~C Communications. The agency also is to hire an independent auditor to peruse Ameritech 's books. and will actually bill the phon.e company to r more than $10. 000 in overtime incurred by state employees, who have fielded almost twice as many c ustomer complaints in September and October than for all of 19Y9. • The Dayton Daily News: A comprehensive revision of Ohio's juvenile-justice code, sent to the governor'~ desk this week, addresses a serious disconnect in stat·~ . criminal laws under which young offenders have to be treated either as juveniles or adults. Under the legislanon, judges could impose so-c alkd blended sentences, in which juveniles convictt>d of violent acts could be sent fir.;;t to juvenile centers and latc.:r transferred to :tdult prison". Gov. [lob Taft has indicated that he will srgn the brll, as he should. Although increases seem to have slowed, more you th> under I H are committing violent acts th,m two or rhrt't' decades ago. This bill allows j udges. when warranted, to hold a teen-.l!!;eT fully accmrmable for a viOlent crime. .,I HE.NTOFF'S VIEW Does capital punishment serve as a deterrent? Not all opponents of ca pital punishmt·nt speak with one voice. Some, like Justice Harry Dlackmun, who supported the death penalty during most of his term on the Court, finally decided he would "no longer tinker with the machinery of death" because the ultimate punishment was so randomly applied. That is, some of those on death row had not received due process - basic fairness - in their trials , or in their appeals. Others, such as the late Catholic cardinals Joseph Bernardin and John Cardinal O'Connor, were against capital punishment because they believed that to be pro-life, one must adhere to a consistent ethic of life - being against abortion, euthanasia and capital punishment . On the other hand, supporters of the death penalty often agree with George W. Bush and · AI Gore. During their third presidential debate, both candidates were asked why they were for the death penalty. Both answered immediately:" It's a deterrence." Without capital pu'n ishment, homicides would increase. Neither [lush nor Gore gave any factual evidence to support their position. They couldn't, beca use the great weight of evidence is against them. In I 996, the Journal of Criminal Law and Criminul9gy reported that a survey of 70 leading American criminologists found that over 81l percent of them said that the death penalty does not lower homicide rates. More definitively, on Sept. 22 of this year, an extens ively researched New York Times survey revealed that the 12 states without .a death penalty have homicide rates below t)lc national average. As Ri chard Dieter, executive director of the D eath Penalty lnform .rtion Center points out, " The average murder rate per lllll,O!III populatipn in 1998 among states with the death penalty w~s 6.2.

Bush's murder rate among states without the death penalty was only 3.2. A look at neighboring death penalty and non-death-penalty states shows similar trends." Furthermore? with regard to the uneven fairness of the trials, I have reported on death penalty ca~es for some 40 years, and It is an undeniable fact that since most of those on death ·row cannot afford experienced lawyers, many of th ose cases arc handled by inexperi c..:nccd court-appointed attorneys. sontc with little or no previous cxperil'nce in capltal cases. As reporter Richard Perez- Pena noted in The New York Times (Fe h. 12, "1100): "There are states like Texas. Alabama and Georgia, where the death penalty is' frequently imposed, and th e re is no pubhc detender system at all. Instead, judges appoint lawyers for poor defe1idants and set their compensation, often at low rates." Often very low rate!, with tmnimal funds for investigators and forensic experts.

The nonprofit group's 13th survey, being released Monday, questioned 7,290 students in seventh through 12th grades nationwide. The margm of error is plus or minus 1.5 percentage points. Use of ecstasy, a favorite at dance clubs and aU-night raves. has doubled among teens since 1995, the survey found. One in 10 teens has experimented with the drug, it said. The report found the number of teens who have tried ecstasy at least once had increased from 7 percent to I 0 percent over the past year. In contrast, the 40 percent of teens sayi ng they had tried martiuana :was down from 41 perc~nt last year. It was the third consecutive drop-off in teen marijuana use smce 1997, when 44 percent of teens said they had used the drug at least once.

The nonprofit group's 13th survey, being released Monday, questioned 7,290 students in seventh through 12th grades nationwide. The margm of error is plus or minus 1.5 percentage points. Use of ecstasy, a favorite at dance clubs and aU-night raves. has doubled among teens since 1995, the survey found. One in 10 teens has experimented with the drug, it said. The report found the number of teens who have tried ecstasy at least once had increased from 7 percent to I 0 percent over the past year. In contrast, the 40 percent of teens sayi ng they had tried martiuana :was down from 41 perc~nt last year. It was the third consecutive drop-off in teen marijuana use smce 1997, when 44 percent of teens said they had used the drug at least once.

I admit that I'm involved in its production (next year I'm Tuesday), but even if I weren't, I would answer the same: The Daily Bridge Calendar. The contrib· utors give your bidding, openinglead, defense and dechlrer-play skills a tho~ugh workout over the course of the year, . with all the answers on the back of each day's sheet. Here is a problem from this year's calendar. How would you plan the play in (a) three no-trump and (b) five diamonds? In each case, West leads the heart queen. That South hand is too strong · for a 15-17 no-trump; it is worth nearer 19 points than 17. In three no-trump, you have six tricks outside diamonds. So, three diamond tricks will suffice. However, after the heart lead, you can afford to lose the lead only once. The best play is to win with your heart ace and cash the diamond ace . When the king drops, you collect an overtrick. But if his majesty doe sn't appear. you enter dummy, twice if necessary, to lead toward the queen -jack of . diamonds. In five diamonds, you probably need to play the trump suit for no loser. So, win trick one in the dummy and immediarely finesse the diamond queen. Assuming it wins, return to dummy, take another tinesse, and with luck, sail home. The calendar has one drawback: If you do not look your best over breakfast, you can htae rrom · the world behind the moming paper, but not behind a calendar sheet! The calendar costs US $16.99 (C $20.99), including postage. Call (800) 749-3292 to order.

I admit that I'm involved in its production (next year I'm Tuesday), but even if I weren't, I would answer the same: The Daily Bridge Calendar. The contrib· utors give your bidding, openinglead, defense and dechlrer-play skills a tho~ugh workout over the course of the year, . with all the answers on the back of each day's sheet. Here is a problem from this year's calendar. How would you plan the play in (a) three no-trump and (b) five diamonds? In each case, West leads the heart queen. That South hand is too strong · for a 15-17 no-trump; it is worth nearer 19 points than 17. In three no-trump, you have six tricks outside diamonds. So, three diamond tricks will suffice. However, after the heart lead, you can afford to lose the lead only once. The best play is to win with your heart ace and cash the diamond ace . When the king drops, you collect an overtrick. But if his majesty doe sn't appear. you enter dummy, twice if necessary, to lead toward the queen -jack of . diamonds. In five diamonds, you probably need to play the trump suit for no loser. So, win trick one in the dummy and immediarely finesse the diamond queen. Assuming it wins, return to dummy, take another tinesse, and with luck, sail home. The calendar has one drawback: If you do not look your best over breakfast, you can htae rrom · the world behind the moming paper, but not behind a calendar sheet! The calendar costs US $16.99 (C $20.99), including postage. Call (800) 749-3292 to order.

Michael Miller of Columbus has been appointed as special prosecutor, charged with the investigation of the handling of a property forfeiture in a criminal case against Fred Priddy of Rutland, and a subsequent civil suit filed by Priddy, his wife, Barbara, and other.. Meigs County Common Pleas Judge Fred W.

In his original notice of intent. Crow alleged that Lentes has "repeatedly failed" to account for the personal property which was seized during the 1999 investigation of Priddy's drug activity. That document outlines 16 individual points/of alleged ntisconduct on 1,-entes' part, relating in most part to the transfer and disposition of the assets seized. Lentes has maintained that records . of the disposition of property. most of which was later relinquished to state and federnl tax agencies to satisfY the Priddys' tax obligations, were filed in the court.
