The PUCO has about 100 active slamming complaints, including 15 since Nov. 28, when Ohio and other states assumed responsibility for all complaints. The FCC adopted rules 10 combat the practice known as slamming more than two years ago, but long-distance carriers challenged the rules in court, saying they wanted the comnlission to consider an industry plan to address the problem. A federal judge granted the request and issued a stay to suspend the rules that had only been in place a month. A consensus on a plan was never reached, so the FCC decided last spring that state regulators, represented by the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissions, could act · to enforce rules against slamnling. In recent years, the FCC has received 80,000 complaints about the practice.

The reports filed with Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell's office covered the period fiom Oct. 19 through Dec. 8. Both campaigns for president moved their re'sources from Ohio to other states they figured would be more competitive in the final weeks. Democrat Al Gore made no visits to Ohio after Oct. 4 and his national campaign pulled most of it's television advertising. Republi can George W. Bush visited Ohio just once during that period . The state parties picked up some of th e sla ck. The Democrats spent $556,000 on advertising through their federal candidate account and the Republi-· cans spent $570,000.The money went for "educational ads" that do not urge a vote for the candidate and thus are exempt from most contribution limits.

"We think our result will be better as well." The combination of the FCC rules and a new Ohio law that includes potential anti-slamming fmes of $1,000 a day should help eradicate the practice , Dan Shields, an FCC policy specialist for PUCO, said Friday. The PUCO has about 100 active slamming complaints, including 15 since Nov. 28, when Ohio and other states assumed responsibility for all complaints. The FCC adopted rules 10 combat the practice known as slamming more than two years ago, but long-distance carriers challenged the rules in court, saying they wanted the comnlission to consider an industry plan to address the problem. A federal judge granted the request and issued a stay to suspend the rules that had only been in place a month. A consensus on a plan was never reached, so the FCC decided last spring that state regulators, represented by the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissions, could act · to enforce rules against slamnling. In recent years, the FCC has received 80,000 complaints about the practice. COLUMBUS (AP) - Term limits, which ended the 20-year career of House Speaker Jo Ann Davidson and paved the way for her successor, Larry Householder, aren't going to be abandoned anytime soon, both lawmakers said Friday. · "The people of Ohio are pretty comfortable with term limits," said Householder, a Glenford Republican who is expected to become House Speaker in January after just two terms in the House.

OUR READERS' VIEWS ~pointees, :~ were deciding according to their own conservative ide<)logy. The dissenters are either the liberals or the centrists on the <!ourt, the pundits tell us. : Judges are expected to be impartial, but when confronted with a decision so politically charged as the recount, the justices will be hailed or vilified no m~tter what the outcome. That's been the history of the court. From its earliest days, the oourt has had to make rulings on points of!.iw affecting national and s!ate policy. From Dred Scott to Roe v. Wade, the court has always been thrust into the political maelstrom. In a democracy, it can be rio other way · Unfortunately, politics has come to surround the confirmation pr~cess of some justices. A split Congress may be pitched into battle if.George W Bush gets a chance to nominate a new justice. We've seen it happen before, in 1987 when Robert Bork withdrew his nanie due to Capitol Hill opposition, and four years larer with the circus that surrounded Clarence Thomas' confirmation. Admittedly, the several justices who have since joined Thomas on the court did not undergo the same travails, but given the heavy 'a tmosphere now in Congress, it's likely whoever Bush selects if a Nacancy arises will be in for a rough time. : It shouldn't have to be that way. If we want to ensure impartiality bn rhe court and get the best legal minds available, making court candidates targets of political s~hisms only worsens the situation. The confirmation process is necessary if we are to find out how qualified a new justice will be. Turning the process into a verbal wrestling match brings dishonor not only to the court, but further cheapens the image of Congress now plaguing the nation. For the next few months, we'll hear a lot about unifYing the nati=. One of the first steps is to not to level accusations at the court. Say what you will about the election, it's over now. It's time for us to focus on a national agenda, forget the back-biting and move on. : The court will play a part in this agenda. Respecting its decisions, no matter how politically charged, is something we don't have to learn all over again. · TODAY IN HISTORY BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Sunday, Dec. 17, the 352nd day of 2000.

The dissenters are either the liberals or the centrists on the <!ourt, the pundits tell us. : Judges are expected to be impartial, but when confronted with a decision so politically charged as the recount, the justices will be hailed or vilified no m~tter what the outcome. That's been the history of the court. From its earliest days, the oourt has had to make rulings on points of!.iw affecting national and s!ate policy. From Dred Scott to Roe v. Wade, the court has always been thrust into the political maelstrom. In a democracy, it can be rio other way · Unfortunately, politics has come to surround the confirmation pr~cess of some justices. A split Congress may be pitched into battle if.George W Bush gets a chance to nominate a new justice. We've seen it happen before, in 1987 when Robert Bork withdrew his nanie due to Capitol Hill opposition, and four years larer with the circus that surrounded Clarence Thomas' confirmation. Admittedly, the several justices who have since joined Thomas on the court did not undergo the same travails, but given the heavy 'a tmosphere now in Congress, it's likely whoever Bush selects if a Nacancy arises will be in for a rough time. : It shouldn't have to be that way. If we want to ensure impartiality bn rhe court and get the best legal minds available, making court candidates targets of political s~hisms only worsens the situation. The confirmation process is necessary if we are to find out how qualified a new justice will be. Turning the process into a verbal wrestling match brings dishonor not only to the court, but further cheapens the image of Congress now plaguing the nation. For the next few months, we'll hear a lot about unifYing the nati=. One of the first steps is to not to level accusations at the court. Say what you will about the election, it's over now. It's time for us to focus on a national agenda, forget the back-biting and move on. : The court will play a part in this agenda. Respecting its decisions, no matter how politically charged, is something we don't have to learn all over again. · TODAY IN HISTORY BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Sunday, Dec. 17, the 352nd day of 2000.

Ohio, deeply saddent"d me. I too, Ms. Sweeney, am a Christian (perhaps not Hapnst, but then Christ did not esr.1blish the Baptist church, did He?). In her letter, Ms. Sweeney stated that "spoiled little children whose parents get divorces play on~ parent aitinst another." Come now, Ms. Sweeney! l don't think that Ms. Sweeney actually mearif that acctLSation the way it sounded. do you' Ms. Sweeney, you get the benefit of the doubt on that one.

That is " If anyone cut>es his mother mother or father, he must be put to death." Leviticus 20:9, NIV Surely the Jewish parent, living under Mosa. ic Law, ·would take whatever necessary steps it took to save their child's life! Under Grace, established when Christ sacrificed His life for us, giving us redemption through His blood, children are not to he pur to death when in the wrong. They are to be corrected and forgiven, not beaten up and screamed at. Ph)"ical action taken agai11.1t a child is the result of anger on the part of the parent, not a result of the parent's desire to for their child to behave . responsibly . Parents who hit I" strike their children are telling their children that violence is a ·viable alternative to to communicating about a problem and solving it. James said. "Everyone should be qmck to listen, slow 10 speak, and slow to become angry, for man~c; tmger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.' Qames I:19,20). It seems obvious tram th e tone of Ms. Sweeney's letter (e-specially the last part) that she has had dealings with rhe Gallia County Children Services in the past. I do not pretend to speak in <avor of the CSB, because there are many children that need help m Gallia County. and do not receive it.

Jt:Sus Christ sai d "Suffer not the children to come unto me, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." Violence is simply not an acceptable avenue of correction.

WASHINGTON (AP) Bestdes returning to the Senate next month, Joe Lieberman also plans to return to the political center, teaching across parry lines to work with like-minded Republicans. But some Republicans are wondering whether the Connecticut Democrat can reoccupy the middle ground, having shifted his ·views during the campaign on issues such as privatizing Social Security and offering taxpayer-financed vouchers for private schools.

We need voices of reason to get rid of the politics and do what's right for th~ country. While Lieberman said he intended "to return to the Senate as the same perc son I've always been," some outside observers say it might take some time for him to move back to the middle. "Initially, it will be hard for Lieberman," said John Lapinski, a political science professor at Yale University. "P~ople will need some time to figure out who he is now. But he's a pretty resilient politician, and we could expect him to be a part of bipartisan legislation, even if it happens slowly." Lieberman said he'll first tty to build bridges between Democrats and Republicans over issues both sides can largely agree on, such as national security. • Inside: OVC boys win again, Page B2 River Valley loses first game, Page B3 NFL: Pro Bowl teams selected, Page B4 Prep Scoreboard, B5 ' { POMEROY - Meigs County Court Judge Patrick H .

So the resourceful Bush befriended the powerful Bullock, a Democrat, in 1994 as Bush was about to win his first term as governor. Many believe that making an ally of !Jullock, nicknamed "Dully" by Dush, was crucial to the govemor's polilical success. In Texas, the governor's office is constitutionally weak, and power is divided among six statewide elected officials. The lieutenant govemorship, the state's secondhighest office, is widely considered the strongest because the occupant presicl,·s over the state Senate and sits on key government boards.

So the resourceful Bush befriended the powerful Bullock, a Democrat, in 1994 as Bush was about to win his first term as governor.

Shortly afier taking office, Bush began meeting with Bullock and Democratic House Speaker Pete Laney for breakfast every Wednesday during the 1995 legislative ses- a bip;utlo;;;an approach to move beyond "the politics of division."

DEAR ABBY: Here 's a new twist to what I believe is an· old · stOry. Four years ago, my h usband (Jim) passed away, leaving me a widow. A year later, Jim \ sister passed away, leavi11g her hu sband (John) a widower. John and I were always good friends , and for three years now we have enjoyed an intimate, compatible friendship. Not unusual, for according to Jewish tradition, a surviving brother- in law cared for the surviving sister-in-law. My problem: Jn many of my anguished dreams. John's wife appears, reclaiming her relation sh ip with John. She asks nw what I'm doing in John 's bed' . Whil e my husband Jim would be more understanding. John 's wife wants what was once hers! We argu e back and forth over our individual women's rights, while John sits back and says nothing. Event ually, I capitulate' Can you tell me why? Am I a female milksop? Does being 7B have anythmg to cln with it? How can I dream myscll: out of this?- LADY IN L.A . bEAR LADY: You can't, so let's look at thi s with · our eyes wide open. As mu c h as · you enjoy the relationship with your former broth er-in - law, I suspect you un co nsciously fed some guilt about it. You know his wife wouldn't approve. And because he hasn 't made a formal commitment to you. in a sense he still belongs to li er. (" H e just sits th ere an d says nothing.") l find it interesting that at the end of the dream you "capitulate." Pe rhap s deep down you fed he will always be hers and never yours. Instead of trymg to "dream" your way out of it, haw a talk with John and describe the dream in detaiL Then ask him if the relationship is going anywhere.· Th e dream is less important than what''\ going on 111 the clear ligh t of day.

DEAR ABBY: Here 's a new twist to what I believe is an· old · stOry. Four years ago, my h usband (Jim) passed away, leaving me a widow. A year later, Jim \ sister passed away, leavi11g her hu sband (John) a widower. John and I were always good friends , and for three years now we have enjoyed an intimate, compatible friendship. Not unusual, for according to Jewish tradition, a surviving brother- in law cared for the surviving sister-in-law. My problem: Jn many of my anguished dreams. John's wife appears, reclaiming her relation sh ip with John. She asks nw what I'm doing in John 's bed' . Whil e my husband Jim would be more understanding. John 's wife wants what was once hers! We argu e back and forth over our individual women's rights, while John sits back and says nothing. Event ually, I capitulate' Can you tell me why? Am I a female milksop?

Instead of trymg to "dream" your way out of it, haw a talk with John and describe the dream in detaiL Then ask him if the relationship is going anywhere.· Th e dream is less important than what''\ going on 111 the clear ligh t of day.

CHICAGO (A.P) A provQI:ative Turkish study suggests that using honey as an ointment during a certain rype of colon-cancer surgery can help prevent tumors from recurring. While the research was done m mice and no one expects hospitals to start stocking operating rooms with honey jars, honey has been used as a folk remedy for healing since biblical times. A.nd a Mayo Clinic cancer expert said the results, though preliminary, are .too fascinating to be dismissed. The research was aimed >t improving the safety of laparoscopic surgery, an mcreasingly popular technique that involves tiny keyhole incisions and skinny instruments. EnthuSiasm for the technique has been tempered by some reports that laparoscopy for colon cancer can uself cause tumors to develop in the abdominal wall, along the path the surgical instruments took. The Turkish researchers suggest honey might work as a barrier to tumor cells when it is spread in the incisions. The findings, based on a study of 60 mice, were published in December's issue of the Archives of Surgery. Dr. Tonia Young-Fadok, a Mayo Clinic surgeon participating in a U.S. study on whether laparoscopic surgery for colon cancer can cause new tumors, said substances in honey might actually help dissolve tumor cells. location and form tumor._ Otll"It's not clear what the power ers suggest that mexpenenced of honey is, but there's certainly surgeons might inadvertently somethmg here that's of mterest," cause malignant cells to 1mplanl Young-Fadok said. as they extract the tumor. · Laparoscopies are being used Young-Fadok sa1d some increasingly to treat a variery of research has found that tumors conditions that formerly occur in less than 1 percent of required major operations.

The buzzard ·was a flop. But cartoonish sketches of the three other animals, drawn in cool poses a Ia Joe Camel on mock tobacco warning labels and signs, were a hit with schoolchildren involved m the research. Warnings featuring the cartoon animals were rated as n1or.e believable than th ose showing only printed messages, according to a study of 580 you ngsters in Decem ber's Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine. The smart-aleck characters "may be particularly appealing to the rebellious nature of adolescents,", the researchers wrote. Joe Camel was created by RJ Reynolds but was banned in advertising as part of the na tion's $20(> b1llion tobacco settlement because of allegations that the character was leading youngsters to take up smoking., Reynolds has said Joe Camel was aimed at young adults, not children. But the researchers noted that a foc us group of youngs ters in the study called him a "cool dude."

Mrs. Smith is not unique. If questioned. most people would admit that they were sometimes· not comfortable driving at night. This problem of blur and glare affects people of all ages. To understand this difficulty. you must understand the effect or dim light on the eye. While driving at night, the pupil of your eye opens wider In an attempt to Increase the amount of light reaching the retina. With this "wide exe." light enters the eye at more of an angle. This reduces the depth of vision and blurs it. Glare can be caused by anything from a dirty windshield to developing cataracls. Anti-reflective lens coa tings can significantly reduce reflections and glare from oncoming headlights. If you do much night driving. a separatr prescription may be helpful.

CHICAGO (A.P) A provQI:ative Turkish study suggests that using honey as an ointment during a certain rype of colon-cancer surgery can help prevent tumors from recurring. While the research was done m mice and no one expects hospitals to start stocking operating rooms with honey jars, honey has been used as a folk remedy for healing since biblical times. A.nd a Mayo Clinic cancer expert said the results, though preliminary, are .too fascinating to be dismissed. The research was aimed >t improving the safety of laparoscopic surgery, an mcreasingly popular technique that involves tiny keyhole incisions and skinny instruments. EnthuSiasm for the technique has been tempered by some reports that laparoscopy for colon cancer can uself cause tumors to develop in the abdominal wall, along the path the surgical instruments took. The Turkish researchers suggest honey might work as a barrier to tumor cells when it is spread in the incisions. The findings, based on a study of 60 mice, were published in December's issue of the Archives of Surgery. Dr. Tonia Young-Fadok, a Mayo Clinic surgeon participating in a U.S. study on whether laparoscopic surgery for colon cancer can cause new tumors, said substances in honey might actually help dissolve tumor cells. location and form tumor._ Otll"It's not clear what the power ers suggest that mexpenenced of honey is, but there's certainly surgeons might inadvertently somethmg here that's of mterest," cause malignant cells to 1mplanl Young-Fadok said. as they extract the tumor. · Laparoscopies are being used Young-Fadok sa1d some increasingly to treat a variery of research has found that tumors conditions that formerly occur in less than 1 percent of required major operations.

The buzzard ·was a flop. But cartoonish sketches of the three other animals, drawn in cool poses a Ia Joe Camel on mock tobacco warning labels and signs, were a hit with schoolchildren involved m the research. Warnings featuring the cartoon animals were rated as n1or.e believable than th ose showing only printed messages, according to a study of 580 you ngsters in Decem ber's Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine. The smart-aleck characters "may be particularly appealing to the rebellious nature of adolescents,", the researchers wrote. Joe Camel was created by RJ Reynolds but was banned in advertising as part of the na tion's $20(> b1llion tobacco settlement because of allegations that the character was leading youngsters to take up smoking., Reynolds has said Joe Camel was aimed at young adults, not children.

Mrs. Smith is not unique. If questioned. most people would admit that they were sometimes· not comfortable driving at night. This problem of blur and glare affects people of all ages. To understand this difficulty. you must understand the effect or dim light on the eye. While driving at night, the pupil of your eye opens wider In an attempt to Increase the amount of light reaching the retina. With this "wide exe." light enters the eye at more of an angle. This reduces the depth of vision and blurs it. Glare can be caused by anything from a dirty windshield to developing cataracls. Anti-reflective lens coa tings can significantly reduce reflections and glare from oncoming headlights. If you do much night driving. a separatr prescription may be helpful.

Many 'To Choose From BY BECKY COLLINS GALLIPOLIS - What is the safe cooking temperature' ·of pork? I'm usually re porting recent research that tightens the guidelines for handling meats and seafood. But today, there's some good n ews. Most authorities now agree that jt's okay to coo k pork to 160 degrees (medium) that it's not necessary to cook it to a welldone 170 degrees If you prefer a meat that's not dry and tough. Texture , flavor, moisture and tenderness is .Improved considerably at th e lower tempera :fure. and cooking to 160 degrees m akes the ~neat safe from virtu a1ly all known minour. wtantsms. Anyone still worried about trichinosis '. •• •. Would 40u lik€ to b€ in bdtE:r shapE:? $795 sho uld know that, because of increased regulations Jnd updated feeding practices , trichinosis due to pork products has all b11t been alleviated in the United States. For example, before the mid-l960s, there were about 300 to 400 cases of tric hinosis a year. Authorities were overJoyed whr:n that decreased to about 1 SO coses a yeor. No\:V, according to the to t h e Centers for Di sease Control, trichinosis is even more rare, ave ragmg less thJn 40 cases a ye:u throu ghout the United States. And m ost of those cases are associated with \vild game, not pork purchased from a gmcery sto re .

Many 'To Choose From BY BECKY COLLINS GALLIPOLIS - What is the safe cooking temperature' ·of pork? I'm usually re porting recent research that tightens the guidelines for handling meats and seafood. But today, there's some good n ews. Most authorities now agree that jt's okay to coo k pork to 160 degrees (medium) that it's not necessary to cook it to a welldone 170 degrees If you prefer a meat that's not dry and tough. Texture , flavor, moisture and tenderness is .Improved considerably at th e lower tempera :fure. and cooking to 160 degrees m akes the ~neat safe from virtu a1ly all known minour. wtantsms.

Would 40u lik€ to b€ in bdtE:r shapE:? $795 sho uld know that, because of increased regulations Jnd updated feeding practices , trichinosis due to pork products has all b11t been alleviated in the United States. For example, before the mid-l960s, there were about 300 to 400 cases of tric hinosis a year. Authorities were overJoyed whr:n that decreased to about 1 SO coses a yeor. No\:V, according to the to t h e Centers for Di sease Control, trichinosis is even more rare, ave ragmg less thJn 40 cases a ye:u throu ghout the United States. And m ost of those cases are associated with \vild game, not pork purchased from a gmcery sto re .

Currently, only the top inch or so of soil is frozen. Dig the hole the depth of the soi l ball and at le ast 1-1/2 times as wide. I prefer to dig at least twice th e width of the soil ball so new . . roots can grow mto a competltion free zone. Place the soi l being dug out in a wheel barrel or a couple of garbage cans. Put the contained soil in an area where it cannot freeze, like a garage. Fill up the dug hole with bushels of le aves and cover with plywood or boards to prevent someone or something from accidentally falling into the dug hole. Take the live dug tree outside to plant as soon as Christmas is over. Dig out the leaves in the hole. Place the dug tree at the same level as it was when It was growmg.

Jesse Helms, a leading foe of President Fidel Castro, began meetings Monday aiming to develop future trade between North C arolina farmers and Cuba. "The purpose of this trip is to build relationships" and is not political in nature, said state Sen. Allan Wellons, D-Johnston, who has a farm of his own. "We want to make these relationships as the law is changing." Wellons was referring to promises some members of Congress have made to fight next year for legislation that \r;ould enable American farmers :to sell their products to the ·Communist island nation . A law passed earlier this year •would allow American sales of food to Cuba for the first time ,in four decades, but contains :financing restrictions .that :would make such sales :e?Ctremely difficult. , The legislation, which takes ~~ffect in February, prohibits the ~1,1nancing of food sales by the ~; V.S. government or American l;tianks. That would require ::Cuba to seek third country :·financing or to pay in cash. Although some U.S. agricul" tural producers believe they can persuade Cuban officials to buy American products despite the restrictions , Havana insists that it will not buy one cent of American food under the current legislation . The group, organized by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services, arrived in Havana late Sunday and is to return to the United States on Friday. Despite Cuban officials' insistence that they will buy nothing from their North Carolina visitors under the new law, they did express hope for additional legislation that . would make it possible to buy American food. "We have to work in similarities," Antonio Carricante, pres-· ident of the Cuban Chamber of Commerce, told North Carolina delegation members Monday morning. "This kind of mission prepares us for the future relationship between the United States and Cuba" The North Carolina group is the latest trade mission from various states over the past year, including Minnesota, Texas and Arkansas. Helms, the Republican senator who cosponsored the Helms-Burton law that tightened the long-standing Cuba trade embargo, had not made any public statements about the trip. His top foreign policy aide said Helms disapproved of trade with the Comrnunist nation . Members of the North Carolina group made clear" that they support an easing of the embargo to allow the state's farmers to sell their produces to Cuba. "Trade is the future for North Carolina farmers and we look forward to establishing relations that benefit both our farmers and Cuba," said Peter Daniel, vice president of the North Carolina Farm Bureau Federation. Delegation members will . meet· a variety of Cuban officials during their visit and visit a flour mill, a meat packing plant, a rum factory, a cooperative farm ·and a cigar factory, Among the delegation members is Tommy Bunn of the Leaf · Tobacco Export Federation, which represents some of North Carolina's top tobacco producers. ·Other delegation members include producers of pork, sweet potatoes, buffalo meat , poultry, rice and dairy products. BY JILL SMITH GALLIPOLIS - The good news is, with electricity choice ki cking off in 2001, you may be able to .save 50 me money on your utility bills.

The negative reaction had nothing to do with the election of George W. Bush. Instead, analysts said, the market's plunge this past week was all about disappointing earnings predictions, particularly one from Microsoft, ·and investor . fears about the economy "The fundamental problem is that people are very concerned about the possibility of a recession in 200 I, although I don't see "one happening;' said Jack Shaughnessy, chief invtstment strategist at Advest Inc. "But all this bad news from computer stocks has affected a lor of people. Of the retail clienl' I advise, I'd bet a third to a half of their assets are in technology stocks, so these warnings have really hurt them." Wall Street has been fixated on earnings since Labor Day, when it first appeared that the economy was moder.~ting. That news was initially greeted warmly ev~n if it meam conlpanies might not make as much money as they had during the previous year. After six intertst rate increases by the Federal Reserve to slow unm~­ tainable ecnnmmc growth and stave off inflation, i nve~tors were optin1istic that more , hikes might not be necessary. But a .. series of warnings, first about companies' third-quarter profits and in the past few weeks , about fourthquarter results, has spawned a senes of selloffi. High-tech was hu fjrst, but the seemingly more durable consume-r and finan cial stocks have suffered as well. The market's drop thts past week sl1rprised many analysts who had believed that the worst w.is over. Many of the most high-profile stocb continued the tr slide 1 was up 6 cents at $57.94. A Labor Department report showing a higher-than-expected inflation reading also surprised Wall Street, which is counting on an interest rate cut early next year. The Federal Reserve, which sets the nation's monet>ry policy, previously Jm cited inflationary pressures as reasons to raise interest rates. Even influential Goldman Sachs strate' gist Abby Joseph Cohen's statement Friday that she did not expect the U.S. economy to fall into a recession failed to assuage the market. Declining issues led advancers by more than 7 to 5 on the NYSE. The exchange had a record 1.55 billion shares traded directly through ;ts selling floor. The NYSE's consolidated volume, wlUch includes shares traded . on other exchanges, was nearly I. 79 billion shares,' compared with nearly 1.3 billion :on Thursday. The Russell 2000 index dropped 3.79 to 458.03. Overseas, Japan's Nikkei stock average fell 2.5 percent.

Jesse Helms, a leading foe of President Fidel Castro, began meetings Monday aiming to develop future trade between North C arolina farmers and Cuba. "The purpose of this trip is to build relationships" and is not political in nature, said state Sen. Allan Wellons, D-Johnston, who has a farm of his own. "We want to make these relationships as the law is changing." Wellons was referring to promises some members of Congress have made to fight next year for legislation that \r;ould enable American farmers :to sell their products to the ·Communist island nation . A law passed earlier this year •would allow American sales of food to Cuba for the first time ,in four decades, but contains :financing restrictions .that :would make such sales :e?Ctremely difficult. , The legislation, which takes ~~ffect in February, prohibits the ~1,1nancing of food sales by the ~; V.S. government or American l;tianks. That would require ::Cuba to seek third country :·financing or to pay in cash. Although some U.S. agricul" tural producers believe they can persuade Cuban officials to buy American products despite the restrictions , Havana insists that it will not buy one cent of American food under the current legislation . The group, organized by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services, arrived in Havana late Sunday and is to return to the United States on Friday. Despite Cuban officials' insistence that they will buy nothing from their North Carolina visitors under the new law, they did express hope for additional legislation that . would make it possible to buy American food. "We have to work in similarities," Antonio Carricante, pres-· ident of the Cuban Chamber of Commerce, told North Carolina delegation members Monday morning. "This kind of mission prepares us for the future relationship between the United States and Cuba" The North Carolina group is the latest trade mission from various states over the past year, including Minnesota, Texas and Arkansas. Helms, the Republican senator who cosponsored the Helms-Burton law that tightened the long-standing Cuba trade embargo, had not made any public statements about the trip. His top foreign policy aide said Helms disapproved of trade with the Comrnunist nation . Members of the North Carolina group made clear" that they support an easing of the embargo to allow the state's farmers to sell their produces to Cuba. "Trade is the future for North Carolina farmers and we look forward to establishing relations that benefit both our farmers and Cuba," said Peter Daniel, vice president of the North Carolina Farm Bureau Federation. Delegation members will . meet· a variety of Cuban officials during their visit and visit a flour mill, a meat packing plant, a rum factory, a cooperative farm ·and a cigar factory, Among the delegation members is Tommy Bunn of the Leaf · Tobacco Export Federation, which represents some of North Carolina's top tobacco producers. ·Other delegation members include producers of pork, sweet potatoes, buffalo meat , poultry, rice and dairy products.

The negative reaction had nothing to do with the election of George W. Bush. Instead, analysts said, the market's plunge this past week was all about disappointing earnings predictions, particularly one from Microsoft, ·and investor . fears about the economy "The fundamental problem is that people are very concerned about the possibility of a recession in 200 I, although I don't see "one happening;' said Jack Shaughnessy, chief invtstment strategist at Advest Inc. "But all this bad news from computer stocks has affected a lor of people. Of the retail clienl' I advise, I'd bet a third to a half of their assets are in technology stocks, so these warnings have really hurt them." Wall Street has been fixated on earnings since Labor Day, when it first appeared that the economy was moder.~ting. That news was initially greeted warmly ev~n if it meam conlpanies might not make as much money as they had during the previous year. After six intertst rate increases by the Federal Reserve to slow unm~­ tainable ecnnmmc growth and stave off inflation, i nve~tors were optin1istic that more , hikes might not be necessary. But a .. series of warnings, first about companies' third-quarter profits and in the past few weeks , about fourthquarter results, has spawned a senes of selloffi. High-tech was hu fjrst, but the seemingly more durable consume-r and finan cial stocks have suffered as well. The market's drop thts past week sl1rprised many analysts who had believed that the worst w.is over. Many of the most high-profile stocb continued the tr slide 1 was up 6 cents at $57.94. A Labor Department report showing a higher-than-expected inflation reading also surprised Wall Street, which is counting on an interest rate cut early next year. The Federal Reserve, which sets the nation's monet>ry policy, previously Jm cited inflationary pressures as reasons to raise interest rates. Even influential Goldman Sachs strate' gist Abby Joseph Cohen's statement Friday that she did not expect the U.S. economy to fall into a recession failed to assuage the market. Declining issues led advancers by more than 7 to 5 on the NYSE. The exchange had a record 1.55 billion shares traded directly through ;ts selling floor. The NYSE's consolidated volume, wlUch includes shares traded . on other exchanges, was nearly I. 79 billion shares,' compared with nearly 1.3 billion :on Thursday. The Russell 2000 index dropped 3.79 to 458.03. Overseas, Japan's Nikkei stock average fell 2.5 percent. Germany's DAX index slipped 2.1 percent, Britain's FT-SE 100 slid 1.3 percent, and France's CAC-40 was off 1.1 pcrcc1\t. e~- "i1t<wte ~~ IJioe A. Moore-Broker ~~~a•r11h L.

Take breaks in a bunch In some cases, you might want to apply a bunching strategy to certain deductions to increase the totaillleductible omount. Determine whethrr this year's miscellaneous deductions will exceed the IRS deductions threshold (remember, if you itemize such deductions you are allowed to deduct only the amount that exceeds 2 percent of AGI). If they do exceed the threshold, it is probably a good idea to extend subscriptions to professional journals, pay union or l'rofessionill journals, pay union or professianal dues, enroll and pay tuition for job-related courses, etc., in calendar year 2000. Generally the strategy is to bunch your deductions in alternate years in order to exceed the AGI percentage limitations that might otherwise prevent your deducting such costs. This approach also applies to medical (subject to a 7.5 percent limit) and certain other deductions, so as\< your tax advisor if this strategy is right for you. Get ·extra credit Dependent Care Credit- If you are caring for a disabled dependent or spouse, or if you have a child under the age of 13, and you pay someone to care that dependent so you can work, the dependent care credit may allow you to deduct as much as $720 if you have , one qualifYing individual, or S1,440 if you have more than one qualifYing individuaL The tax credit ranges from 20 percent to 30 percent of care expenses, · depending on your AGl. . Pleasant surprises You may be surprised at the variety of tax breaks available to you. Those mentioned here could be just the beginning. Some of these suggestions must be acted upon by the end of the year, others may be able to wait until closer ·to tax filing time. Consult with your accountant or tax advisor if you have questions or for more specific information and advice. ed stock may allow you to provide a benefit to your chosen non-profit while gaining a taX benefit for yourself at a bargain price. Your taX advisor can tell you more about the advantages of this kind of donation. Cash contributions are both deductible and appreciated, but you can also deduct non-ca.<h contributions, including clothing and household goods, based on the value at the time of the contribution. Be sure to get a detailed receipt, as additional information must be provided if your total non-cash contributions exceed $500. Also, if you claim a value of $5,000 or more for non-cash gifts other than marketable securities, a full written receipt is generally required . Remember that a written receipt is required for all contributions of $250 or more. 'Above-the-line' deductions Certain reduc~ions to your adjusted gross income or AGI are often called "above-theiine"deductiom. They are an important tax planning tool because you can take them in addition to the standard deduction or iten1ized deduction.~ AGI determines your eligibility for various deduction, exemptions and credits. As you 'II see, certain retiremen,t plan contributions are "above-the-line" deductions, which reduce your AGI. Other outlays which might lower your AGI include certain moving expenses. self-employ: ment tax, part of your selfemployed health insurance, etc. Your accountant or tax advisor can guide you. Contribute to your retirement plan To the extent possible, you should generally maximize your contributions to your retirement· plans. The deductions for contributions to traditional IRAs, simplified employment pensions (SEPs) and Keogh plans fall "above-the-line" of your Adj\lsted Gross Income, so you qn take them in addition to your standard itemized deductions. Also, all IRAs, SEP and Keogh plan· earnings accumulate taxdeferred, as do earnings under (Bryce Smith is an investment qualified pension, profit-sharing executive with Smith Partners at and 40 I (k) plans. that will anoth- Advest Inc. in its Gallipolis office.) Funds from PageD1 people; the other 20 percent are institutional investors. And generally between I 0 percent to 20· percent of the overall investments in the high-net-worth and mstitutional market will go into the world of nontraditional assets. Or alternative asset classes, and that's where hedge funds, private equity and venture capital come in. Q: What's "hedge" mean fium an investment point of view? J;lookbinder: In a mutual fund, portfolio managers can typically only go to long securities. ("Long" means one buys a security and holds it.) A hedge fund manager has the ability to hedge a long position with a short position. (Barron's defines selling short as "selling securities not owned by the seller. In making the short sale, the seller hopes to cover... that is, buy back .... sold -- Items (stocks) at a lower price and thus earn a profit.") So what a good hedge fund manager will do is they will be long stocks of companies that they like and they will be short companies they think the stock price wiU go down on. Q : Then hedge means that a manager is trying to pick winning-winning stocks and winning-losing stoc ks> Bookbinder: That 's correct. The manager is hedging to protect t_he long position and hoping that the long position will go up in price. And by shorting a number of stocks that they will go down in price. And if he's right, . . he 'U nuke money in both cases. But that's not the only strategy they can use, Hedge fund portfolio managers can also use leverage or invest in things like convertible arbitrage and merger arbitrage. Q: How easy is it to get your money out of a hedge fund? Bookbinder: In a mutual fund; you basically have daily liquidity and redemption. In hedge funds, because they are limited partnerships, generally speaking. liquidity is annual. So you are locking your money m. You will get monthly, quarterly and annual capital account statements to see what the value is, but the money you invest isn't as liquid as it would be if invested , in a mutual fund . Q: What about following their performance> Bookbinder: Good question . According to market estimates, there :l}'e about 4,000 hedge funds around, with assets totaling about $400 billion. But there isn't one source that tracks and publishes their performance. In the end, if you're considering an alternative asset class investment like a hedge fund, keep in ·mind that there are a number of differences and risks involved that you won't find ·in mutual fund investments. So make sure to do plenty of research, One place to start is at Bookbindercap.com .

In addition, farmers with ponds have found that a few Christmas trees, weighted down properly, provide a good habitat for fish. In order to plant your Christmas in the landscape, a balled and burlapped "living" tree must be purchased. Since balled and burlapped living trees should not be kept indoors for more than I 0 days, now is the right time to purchase, if you are considering that option. Keep in mind thar they do require special care and patience. The root balls of"living" trees are heavy and cumbersome, and sl.muld be kept in a moist condition while the tree is displayed. Before bringing the tree inside, it should be left· upright in an unheated barn or garage for a few days to condition it to the heat inside the house. Likewise, after Christmas the tree should spend a few days in the transition area again, before it is moved outside permanently. Once outside, a balled and burlapped tree should be planted !mmediately. The tree will stay dormant through the rest of the winter, and then resume growth in the normal spring growing season.
