Among the plan's highlights: - Although it will be'pliased in over a fiveyear perlod beginning in 2001, consumers could begin choosing their supplier immediaiely. The transmission and delivery of electric power will remain regulated under the currently monopoly system. - Ohio's eigh! investor-owned utilities will each be given a transition period, ranging from March 31, 2003, 10 Dec. 31, 2004. During that period, consumers will pay a tax on electricity to help utilities recover their "stranded costs," ·debt from investments in nuclear power plants and other projects that is now passed on 'to ratepayers. The tax and transition period w~ld vary, depending hugely on the utility's debt. -: Change the tax structure to allow the utility CQmpanies to com,pete while keeping ·revenues for schools and local governments.

Lewinsky's interview with Barbara Walters and her book only confirm that Clinton has brought disrespect on the office of the presidency -- permanently. This is the office formerly occupied by, Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, the Roosevelts and Truman, whose presidential histories are a matter of achievement, oourage and honor. Even among the disgraced, Richard Nixon had the dignity to engage in high crimes. Only Clin·ton, along with Harding and Kennedy, turned the West Wing into a pleasure dome.

Dear Ann Landers: This is in · response to the letter from "A Sad Motber in Va.," whose son was arrested for marijuana ·possession. You said our laws on possession are too harsh. You sure got it wrong. Marijuana is not the benign, innocuous drug that many believe it is. People use it to alter what's going on in the brain. It impairs one's ability to think, to move, to remember to drive, to ~tudy and so on. Would it bother you if your doctor were a regular pot smoker? Your police officers? Your teachers" Ask people in drug treatment if drugs should be legal. They 'll t~ll you that if drugs were legal, they never would have been able to quit.· I admit I am biased. I've been a police officer for 22 years and have seen the damage drugs do • includ· ing marijuana. Please reconsider your position on this one, Ann. PASADENA, CALIF DEAR PASADENA: I agree that marijuana can alter one's judgment, and I do not advocate its use. However, I see no point in harsh jail sentences for users. They need help to get off the weed. It can . be a tough battle. Read on for more: From Evanston, Dl.: Thank you for your courage in taking such an • unpopular stand. I was injured in a vain accident three years ago and have been in constant pain ever ·since. Marijuana helps, but it is illegal.

She said he wasn't hurtin~ anyone but himself with his drug use. What happens when he is stoned?.Js his judgment sound? I have smoked pot myself and grew up with an alcoholic father. I know what drugs can do. n.:, "good kid" is a threat to society. Knowing pot smokers are driving cars scares me to death. I have no problem paying taxes to prosecute and incarcerate people who break the law. Bethel, Conn.: Marijuana has not contributed to nearly as many deaths, injuries or diseases as other on. Marijuana, like alcohol, should be legal, and people should be held fully responsible for their actions while under the influence. Boulder Colo.: I do not understand how the government can justify spending my tax dollars pursuing and llft'esting citizens for participating in an activity that harms no one. Alcohol, which has caused so much pain, suffering and death, is legal. Yet marijuana, which has proven medical benefits is not. Akron, Ohio: I'm disappointed in you, Ann. To relax the laws on drug possession would be a huge mistake. When I was in high school, I saw kids unable to sit still because they were high.

Scientists identify gene in mice that may regulate weight in humans By JOSEPH B. VERRENGIA AP Science Writer Researchers have identified the first gene known to suppress obesity and regulate the burning of calories, · a key step that may help in developing a drug that keeps people trim . The gene, known as Mahogany or the MG gene, was discovered in mice. It is the sixth gene found to be implicated in obesity, but researchers said it is the first discovered to regulate metabolism and the expenditure of energy. In one of two studies published in today's issue of the journal Nature, scientists at Millennium PharmaceU· ticals in Cambridge, Mass ., tested groups of mice with normal and mutated MG genes. They fed the mice diets with varying percentages of fat. Mice with a mutated MG gene did not gain weight whether they a high-fat diet or a low-fat one. Mice with the normal gene gained weight on the high-fat diet. Researchers said they were opti· mistic that the gene would play the ate same role In humans, but cautioned that it has been demonstrated only in mice (Mahogany refers to the animals' brown fur). . . And though the findings suggest tho gene plays an important role in diet-related obesity - which afflicts most. of the 54 percent of American adults who are too hefty - obesity is thought to more than a matter of : · genetics.

Their sounds can make us deaf without being heard. • The wars in which we engage may be again st our next of kin . And what we cherish now may have been different · back then'. Today, in my room, I prayed for some peace. That the violence of man and the hatred might cease .. .That the judging might stop, and the children can play. Without ever worrying to what God they pray. Th nt they can go over to a frie nd's hou5l' and really have some fun . Without parents worrying they'll find a loaded gun . Today, I prayed the drinking and dri ving would quit And the fights that we have wouldn't end with a hit. Maybe some day after these wishes were made. IJI know I helped out, because today I prayed.

The FTC has filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in White Plains, N.Y. , against the Five Star Auto Club Inc., seeking a permanent injun ction and consumer· redress. A federal court already has temporarily shut dow n the operation. "Basically, these schemes take your money to pay off some other people," said CleQ Manuel, of the. National. Consumers League. " Ultimately, someone is going to be left holding the bag." Manuel said con artists try to reas•sure consumers that the sc heme is legitimate by using "s hill s" decoys who are paid by the company to say they made huge profits in the scheme. Officials warn that the Internet makes it easy for such fraudulent ope rations to hide , shut down or move when someone begins to catch on.

''r Public Notice War historian PHILADELPHIA (AP) Charles Stedman, born in , 1753, remained loyal to the British crown during the American Revolution. Stedman served as -interpreter with Hessian troops in the British army and twice escaped from Patriot capture.

P•ge 18 • The O.lly Sentinel Pomeroy • Middleport, Ohio ' By DUSAN STOJANOVIC AIIIOCUiad Press Writer BELGRADE, Yugoslavia - New fighting broke out in southern Koso. vo today, a day after a lop U.S. envoy failed to persuade Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic to accept a Western-backed settlement for the province. Yugoslav and ·Serbian forces descended on !he southwest town ofPrizren and new skirmishes were reported. "Tbere has been some fighting, and there might f>e more coming," Dieter Wolf, a monitor with the Organization for Security atid Cooperation in Europe $aid, speaking via telephone from the town. There were no immediate detaits· !!n the buildup and intensity of combat. The new fighting- and U.S . envoy Richard Holbrooke's failure to con_Yince Mil.osevic to accept foreign troops in the rebellious province in the Yugoslav republic of Serbia- cast doubt on the chances of success at new . .peace talks scheduled for Monday in France. .- Some 2,000 people have been killed and hundreds of thousands driven from their homes in a year of fighting in Kosovo.· Hot brooke was to return to Washington today to brief !he Clinton admin_isb"ation on the standoff. It was unclear whether he would be returning to ·Belgrade. . With Holbrooke's departure. international mediation effons were to con- l ' • I . . I s tinue today with Russian foreign Minister Igor Ivanov. But it was uncenain whether Russia, despite its close ties to the Serbs, would be more successful in convincing Milosevic. Russia has consistendy maintained !hat any peace agreement respect Yugoslav !;QVereignty and has opposed threatened NATO airstrikes. Reponing from Moscow, the lnterfax news agency cited Ivanov as saying the icosovo confli~t must be resolved peacefully - effectively repeating Russian opposition to the NATO threat of airs trikes .against Serb and Yugoslav positi011s. Russia has consistently taken Milosevic's side in the conflict. Ivanov has said that Russia would consider sending peacekeeping lroops to Kosovo, but repeated Wednesday that it would only do so with Milosevic's consent. Despite his lack of success with Milosevic, Holbrooke said the United States and its allies would persist in applying international pressure on the conflicting panies. " We're in a very difficult situation tonight, but the full engagement of · the West, in order to keep the fighting at lower levels and in order to reso1ve these 80- to 90-year-old issues is continuing," Hoi brooke told CNN. Today's fighting follows violence Wednesday that left at least four vii!ages in flames and sent hundreds of ethnic Albanians fleeing the border area · near Macedonia. · ·· · A moderate ethnic Albanian politician, Fehmi Agani, said !he Kosovo . . -4 Seflisl ·Albanians may not even show up for Monday's peace taiks. unless the appear ready to sign on. ·· ; Talks in Rambouillet, France, were suspended Feb. 23 after Secrewy .at!
