I my best tennis I think I can win " For the first set and a half, it looked as if Zvereva would become the fi~t unseeded women's finaliSt since Billie Jean King in 1963. The Belarussian, a doubles specialist who had upset Steffi Graf and Monica Seles en route to the semis. needed only to keep the ball in play as Tauziat sprayed shots all over the court. "I was embarrassed," Tauztat said. "I was not playing. You are in the semifinals at Wimbledon and you want to give your best. I didn't give my best. Suddenly. I started to think I'm going to miss this chance. I had to fight and. I fought good." Tauziat finally settled down 10 the second set, playing free-nowing tennis and punctuating her winners wtth shouts and fist pumps Zvereva's game collapsed in the second-set tiebreaker amid glaring unforced errors that turned the match around for good. Tauziat raced to 30 lead m the third set and never relented Zvereva said the strain of playmg so many big matches had taken its toll . "I'm so tired." she said "I need a mental institutton break. I've never been in this situation before It's really draining." Today, Centre Court will reverberate with "Henmania" as Britain, still mourning England's loss to Argentina in the World Cup. pulls for Tim Henman to go where no homegrown male has ventured in liO years . "It's safe to say it's my favonte court." Henman said. "When you' ve got 15.000 people cheering you on and willing you on, it gives you a buzz.'' Henman will face defending champion Pete Sampras, who knows he won't have many suppollers "Playing Tim here 10 England. 11 ':"ill be tough," he said. Sampras has faced similar situations- playing Boris Becker tn Germany. "Hopefully. you can put the crowd out of the match." he said "You've still got to play. It's sttll one on one. Tim is going to have ~ome emotional support behind him. but you have to play and I feel like I'm playing well .'' Henman is playmg more than JUSt the No. I player. the man who has won Wimbledon four of the last five years and who hasn 't dropped a set in his tournament . Henman is also carrymg the burden of history. By beating Petr Korda in Wednesday ' s quarters. he became the first Bntish man to make the semifinals since Roger Taylor m 1973. Now the 23-year-old IS atmmg to become the first Brit to reach the final since Henry Austin in 1938 and the first to win the tttle since Fred Perry in 1936. "I wasn 'I born when Taylor got to the semis." he said " I don't want to stop at the <emts now " The other men's semifinal will feature two of the game's biggest servers - Richard KraJicek and Goran lvanisevic. Despite a swollen knee, Krajicek •s-playing as well as when he won the title in 1996. The btg surprise is lvanisev 1c. a former two-t1me final -. who had won only one match m hts last five Grand Slam tournaments. lvanisevic has beaten Krajicek eight consecutiVe ltmes dating to 1992 Henman has enjoyed relatively restramed media coverage because of the World Cup Wtth England eliminated followmg Tue<day's loss in a penalty-ktck shootout. the hopes of a lSI nation now tum to h1m "What I'm d01ng IS far more tmpollant to me than the World Cup." he satd. "They (England's soccer players) are out there representing thetrcountry. but when I'm on the · court. I'm playmg solely for myself.': Henman said he's never playeq better than m his wm over Korda and has no reason to helteve he can't beat Sampras "The way I'm play mg. I definite-: ly feel I've got a good chance." he satd. Don't count on 11. says Mark; Philippoussis. who was swept by Sampras tn straight sets in the quarterfinals. The race, one of the mpst anttcipated NASCAR events in recent years, was scheduled for Oct. 17. All tickets will be honored then. The decision to postpone was announced an hour before the gates were to open. Hundreds of fans in cars and campers had already assem· bled at one ~ate during the night, hoping to stake out choice infield spots. Most of the drivers had already arrived for Thursday night's qualify- ing. Graham said the race was called off after a report from city, and Volusia County authorities saying roads were closed because of fires .

As I struggle with words, I look at the blank · · · ·' computer screen and visualize you, my friends, on the other side of the newspaper page. What k.ind of struggle to you have that requires discipline? Can I say anything of value that will encourage you? People ask me, "Do you have to discipline yourself to write?" Yes, on a beautiful warm day, I have to force myself to come tn the house to write. Typing the first word is the biggest hurdle. I munch sweet carrots and drink large large tumblers of decaf tea. My mind wanders and I think of chocolate, popcorn, chips and dip. You know what I mean? A necessary discipline is to spend time with the Lord - a good fl.lle for anyone. A neglected spiritual life leads to ah empty heart. My time with the Lord is so enjoyable that the discipline comes when I have to leave Him. The word "discipline" appears only once in the King James Version of the Bible, Job 36: I 0: "He openeth <!I so their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity." Since iniquity refers to our sin, our number once discipline is to tum away from our sin and tum to Jesus who saves us and assures us of eternallife. Father, Your discipline is sweet. Help us to tum from our sin and save us. Thank You. Amen. Wri:e Bonnie, P.O. Bo~ 951, Xenia, Ohio, for an "Eternal Life" booklet to help you to know how Jesus can save you. PaMor: Rev.

The tomb is located beside the Custis-Lee Mansion, home of Confederate Robert E. Lee in Arlington Cemetery . Anger by the U. S. government at Lee's refusal to lead the northern army led military authorities to his home and property and then begin burying the hundreds of Union soldiers dying in nearby hospitals in gardens surrounding the home. This led to the creation of Arlington National Cemetery. · Attending with Commander Ashley was his wife, Emma, and daughters, Whitney and Emily. Brig. Gen. David V. Medert of Chillicothe gave one of the 1867 speeches. He was accompanied by his son, Mauhew, and his father, past commander-in-chief of the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War, David R. Medert. The wreath presented by Pres. Bill Clinton for the Tomb Of the Unknown Soldier earlier was then presented to the Civil War tomb.

Keep your holiday cookout safe with food handling tips NEW YORK (AP)- Don't dish up a tummyache- or worse- along with the backyard barbecue or picnic fare, cautions Dr. Philip 1iemo, microbiologist at the New York University Medical Center. 1iemo says there are an estimated 80 million cases of foodbome illnesses every year, including 9,000 fatalities. "At least half of these cases could have been prevented by washing hands and by practicing good food hygiene," he says. Here's the drill to safe summertime foods, as .outlined by the center's microbiology department staff: - Don 'I cut meats and vegetables with the same knife or on the same cutting board. Use one board for meats and another for salad and/or vegetables. - Choose a plastic cutting board which contains "an :miibacterial substance such as Triclosan. This type will cleanse itself with gennicidc when sliced. · -Cook meats and poultry thoroughly. Everything but steak needs to be cooked to an interior temperature of 160 degrees (steak can be cooked r~rc inside since genns only reach the outer layer). Keep in mind that 80 percent of all chickens contain salmonella and/or campylobacter, microbes that cause gastroenteritis, and fish .can contain vibrio. The temperature rule applies even to hot dogs and hamburgers. - Keep track of e~piration dates on packaging for meat , dairy products and pre-cut salads. The older the food , the more likely it is to contain a greater quantity of germs. - Don'tlcave foods out for more than two hours in a warm, motsl environment. Staph aureus can get into pOidiO salad, macaroni salad and creamed dishes-to produce the toxins that cause food poisoning. - Keep your hands clean. Wash them between preparation of different foods. Wash after throwing away debris. Wash after going into the house where you might touch a doorknoh or ~ piece of furniture that isn't clean. W.ash after using the baihroom. Usc antibacterial soaps and cleansers. Waterless antibactenals arc good choices when water isn 't availahlc. - Don'i ignore it if you gel sick after a borbecuc or picnic. If you expe rience vomiting. nausea. stomach cramps. feve r or headache within 24 hours. of your mcol . sec a doctor. Even if it 's a non-fatal bout. the illn~ss c"n he damaging to your gostrointcstinal system. Put that cell phone away, we're having dinner now. Thank you By MICHAEL S. DERBY Gannett News Service New times need new rules . That's the word from Audrey Glassman, author of "Can I Fax a Thank-You Note? - The First Handbook of Techno-Etiquette," (August Berkley, $12) a book of etiquette for the cyber-space age . Glassman tackles the fi~tures of the modem world - e-mail, cellphones, beepers, faxes - and offers rules she says balance common- . sense with do-unto-others propriety. In many cases, all the new technologies really offer us is a supercharged envelope, a quicker way to deliver the same infonnation we've always shared with one another. , But it's this speed that has many te~nology users believing that immediacy. permits informality. The feeling is misplaced, Glassman says. Take e-mail, for example. Ditch those combinations of punctuation marks, ."emoticons, " that represent happy and sad faces . "It's a lazy way of communicating," she says. "Writing is still writing" and if you want to he ironic, make sure your words convey ot. "Writing i• noi an illustrated art.'' Glassman .Iso cautions against forwarding e-mail to others. She compares it to photocopying and mailing letters you've received. Cell phones draw Glassman 's ire. She considers their users among the most egregious ctiqucnc offenders. "There's an clement for some people of being a big show-ofT" when whipping out the cell phone, Glassman says. Public cell phone conversations arc inconsiderate and disruptive to those surrounding'lhe caller, Glassman says. Calls should be deferred to a time when more privacy is available. Beeper users don 't escape unscathed. There's rarely a time when beepers nee~ to beep. It's annoying, Glassman says, and most beepers can be set on a vibration mode. Call-waiting also needs to go. Each time you click to the other call you're telling the original caller "I can't pay auention to you right now," Glassman says. That's rude. "Can I Fa~ a Thank-You Note?" came about because no one else had stepped forWard to do it, Glassman says. Traditional etiquette mavens such as Miss Manners are "a little far removed," Glassman says, from the artifacts of the computer age. "Civility isn't a top priority" in today's society, she says, adding that many ·gaffes aren 'I intentional, but made out of ignorance.

This deal occurred during the session I mentioned yesterday. Carry out another crilique while I describe the play. Soulh wa.< in four hearts doubled. Weslled the club queen: five, seven, six. West conlinued with ihe club jack: eight, three, ace. Declarer played a heart to dummy's jack, happy to see Easl drop lhe eight. A dia· mond to lhe ace was followed by the heart 10, Wesl ducking and East discurding a diamond. Wesl took lhe nexl trump, then exited with a dia· mond. But declarer drew lhe last trump and continued with dummy's club IO.In a momenl. Soulh ftnessed dummy's spade queen and had 10 tricks via two spades. three hearts. three diamonds and two clubs. Your thoughts? I agree with West's opening bid. Playing five-card majors, you have 10 bite lhe bullet; and passing 13-point hands is a losing policy. However, I dislike Easl's firsl·round pass. II is lactically very bad. Even if you don't like to risk a one-spade response, at leasl raise 10 two dia· mends. Make it harder for South to enter 1he auclion. (True, here. if Easl bids lwo diamonds, il m1ght be pas.o;ed back 10 North. She should balance wilh a double. which South mighl pass. Two diamonds doubled is a disa.<ler'l Soulh's balancing one no-trump showed some 12-14 points. However, North lhought il was strong. hence her Slay man and jump lo game. West's double was daft, warning declarer about the bad trump bre~k. After lhe double, there wasn 't much 10 the olav. It is best to be lucky and good!

Few can resist the charm of homemade strawberry jam on toast, raspberry jam glazed over a roast pork or a cherry-blueberry jam drizzled over ice cream. Take advantage of the abundance . of fruit through summer by preserving some of nature's sweetest neetars in a jam. Aithough some cooks may be intimidated by the process of making jam because of safety concerns, it takes only a few basic facts, ingredients and equipment to make a batch of jam. It's surprisingly simple and can even be fun. " It 's the easiest thing of all (the canning process). It is the safest form and the most beautiful and it is so tasty." says Mary Samida, a master food preserver in charge of specia! projects for the University of California Cooperative Extension, San Bernardino County. c Safety concerns Unless you plan to consume all the jam· you make Within a few weeks, the jam will have to be processed in a boiling water bath. This means the jars of jam are placed in boiling water for I0 to 20 minutes, depending on the altitude. The boiling water bath preserves jam for long-term storage by killing microorganisms and preventing contamination. Before starting, you should be aware of some safety precautions and misconceptions about jam makmg. - Some pectin manufacturers state that a boiling water bath method is unnecessary in pr~serving jams for long-term storage. Instead, they suggest that after the lw01Jiece lids are in place, to turn the jars over and the jars will seal. "Thlt'< an incorrect recommendation . The process of a water bath is to make sure all of the ingredients and containers reach a certain temperature to kill the bacteria. A seal can h" formed at a lower temperature and bacteria and mold can still fonn . So it's not good for you," wa1 :,s Sam ida. --Sealing the jam with a paraffin wax -is another method of food pr~<ervation that Samida does not recommend. The FDA no longer accepts it as a safe way to preserve jams or jellies, she says. ·"Paraffin expands and contracts with the temperature and this allows bacteria to get in and around it," Samida says. The only safe way to preserve jams on the shelf is to use the canning jars with the two-piece screwtop lids and put them through a boiling water bath, she says. -' Doubling a batch of jam depends on the pectin. Some pectin manufacturers state it"s okay to make a double batch, others do not because the jam will not set properly, Samida says. - Instead, she recommends starting one batch, then when it's going, in about 5 minutes, stan the other. - Sterilizing canning jars in the dishwasher is a safe method of sterilization. - Jam that has been processed in a boiling water bath will keep for one year if stored in a cool, dark place, where the temperature remains in the 60s. If the iemperalure in the,_, closet hits · the 70s and above, the jam will last about three months, Samida says. -Most commercial pecJin manufacturers provide recipes for making a variety of the most commoh jams, such as raspberry, apricot and peach. Equipment needed for making Jam ,. Here 's what you need to make jams. The following information is taken from "So Easy to Preserve," published by the Cooperative Extension Service, University of Georgia. Necessary ingredients; - Fruit: The fruit can be fresh, frozen or canned. If fresh, select fruits that are just ripe. (When using frozen or canned fruits, use no-sugar added varieties and canned fruits should be preserved in their own juices.) - Pectin: Pectin is a substance found in all fruits, with some containing more pectin than others. Fruits low in natural pectin require the addition of commercially made pectin. made of apple or citrus fruit. Pectin aids in the gelling of jams. Sold in most neighborhu~d supermarkets,·commercial pectin is avail.able in powdered and liquid form and cost about $2 a box. Recipes Will tell you if pectin is needed. Manufacturers of commercial pectin also provide many recipes in their packages. Some commercial pectin contains sugar. Read the instructions on the box to determine if added sugar requires alterations in your recipes. · - Sugar: Sugar serves as the preservative and aids in the gelling of the jam . Granulated sug~r is called for most often in recipes, but some recipes may call for the use of honey or com syrup. It is also possible to make jam with no added sugar by using commercial pectin that calls for no added sugar. -Add: Acid also is needed for thickening of the jam as well as for flavor. Some fruits are higher in acid than others. Recipes will list it as an ingredient, if needed (usually either as lemon juice or citric acid). Step-by-step instructions for Jams. - Check jars for cracks or chips and lids for any blemished sealing surfaces. Discard any with prob!ems. Wash in hot soapy water and rinse. - Sterilize jars and rims by either running them through the dishwasher or place in boiling water for 10 minutes. Jars must be kept hot until jar is poured inside. - Sterilize lids according to manufacturer's instructions. - Fill the boiling water canner over half full. deep enough to cover jars completely. Tum on heat and bring water to a gentle boil. -In a separate pot. bring enough water to a gentle boil so that it covers the jars in the water bath canner by 1-to-2 inches. - Follow recipe for making jam. - Remember to stir fruit until sugar dissolves and .crushed fruit slowly comes to a boil. Follow recipe's instructions for length of time jam is to boil rapidly. As mix· ture thickens, stir frequently to prevent sticking and scorching. -Jam is done when it reaches .a temperature of 220 degrees. For a softer product, shonen the cooking time: for a thicker product, lengthe.n the time. - Remove any scum that fonns on the jam before filling the jars. - Prepare the area for filling the jars by placing a clean kitchen towel on the counter.

Mike Shoemaker is out in his pickup truck .--,= often cruising tlle southern portion of his sprawling eight-county district. "I'm out on the track running by myself, seeing how many laps I can get in before they start running," said the Bourneville lawmaker. "Whether Shoemaker is keeping Portsmouth office Franklin, Monroe, Morgan, Perry, Pickaway, Richland, Sandusky and Tuscarawas counties were added to the list Friday. Athens, Belmont, Guernsey, Jackson, Jefferson, Knox, Meigs, Muskingum, Noble, Ottawa and Washington counties were declared disaster areas earlier this week. All but one of the counties are in eastern or southeastern Ohio, which was hit by storms. Ottawa County is in nonhwest Ohio and was hit by a tornado and storms June 24. Gov. George Voinovich has declared a state of emergency in Holmes County, raising the number of counties under the state declaration to 26. Also included in the state disaster declaration but not on the federal list are Delaware, Harrison, licking, Marion and Morrow counties. Flooding has caused an estimated $130 million of damage in those 26 counties, spokeswoman Portia Armstrong of the state's emergency operations center said Friday. knows the southern part of his district is the key to his election. "They are definitely the counties they have to win," he said. "This is where they think they can do damage to me." Senate Republicans strategists think they ~an unseat Shoemaker from along the Ohio River, because he has never appeared on the ballot in Scioto, Lawrence, Gallia and Meigs Counties. Appointed to the 17th District seat in 1996, Shoemaker is well-known in Ross County, Pickaway and Vinton Counties from his eight terms as 91st District representative. In part, this north-south dynamic explains why Shoemaker's opponent this fall is Lee Thatcher, a Portsmouth businessman. Thatcher is well-known in Scioto and Lawrence Counties having twice ran losing state rep campaigns against 92nd District Rep. Bill Ogg, DSciotoville. To unseat Shoemaker, Thatcher hones in on the anti-tax sentiment that runs strong through southern Ohio. "This is a guy that within 10 days of being elected to office, he votes for the largest income tax increase in the history of the state of Ohio," he said, referring to Shoemaker's House vote for the infamous 90 percent income _tax increase of 1983. Later, Thatcher said: "Every time our government rai<es taxes it 's a slap in the face to taxpayers."

REED Tlmea-Sen_tlnel Staff TUPP¥S PLAINS - A group of citizens in Tuppers Plains, di5iatisfied with ·the progress of public officials in helping them, ifjlve agreed to hire an.attorney. . Funds to pay attorney fees are being collected by the group, which has tfeen meeting for <everal months to counter what they consider to be unfair costs for connecting to the Tuppers Plains Regional Sewer system. "Legal fl!lll'' of $25, $50 and $100 have been requested from all residents affected by the new system, according to Loretta Murphy, who along with Randy Kidder has helped organize the citizens' group. Payment of the fees is voluntary, Murphy said, and the fees have been set at different levels so that each resident can pay what he or sh""'can afford. The group has met twice with the Meigs, County Commissioners, demanding that the cost of connecting all households to the system be paid with public funds. The commissioners have so far pledged $80,000 to assist very low and low-income residents in connecting to the system - $50,000 of those funds will come from the county's Community Development Block Grant program, and $30,000 from the Community Housing Improvement Program. Despite this pledge of funding, the group of citizens, who have estimated the cost of connecting all homes at nearly $200,000, are ·still dissatisfied, and insist that all residents must receive public funds for both connecting to the new sewer system and abandoning their existing septic tanks, another expense required by the sewer district. Payment of this expense, Murphy said, for all residents in the village, is due the residents because they have been misled by members of the sewer district board, the county commissioners, the district's legal representatives and by legislators whose assistance has been sought. Residents are also displeased with the requirement that they pay a "capital improvement" charge of up to $5,700, which will be used to retire the debt incurred liy the district in con~truct­ ing the $3.1 million project. They feel that the charge, which must be either paid in a lump sum or in installments ori their sewer district bill,-will create a hardship on re~idents who can least afford it. Murphy said Friday that the group wi\1 also consider the : possibility of lodging a formal complaint against certain sewer · district board members for what she claims are violations of the · "Sunshine Law," because, she alleges, the board h~s not per- : mined her access to financial and meeting records. · Flood sweeps away 160-year-old church; Bible survives natu-re's fury The church's piano came to rest a By JIM FREEMAN Chester, allended the church which TJma•Sentlnel Staff practically straddled the Athens- quarter mile down the road, scat· ALFRED - For almost 160 Meigs county line, drawing parish- tered against a fence.
