REED Sentinel Newa Staff An almost-lifesized version of Noah's Ark is drawing attention on State Route 143. and that's just what it< builders hope for. The congregation of Hillside Baptist Church ncar Pomeroy has begun constructing the ark model on property near its church. According to Or. James Acree. the church pastor. the model will serve more than one purpose: il will serve as a visual reminder of the Bible story abour Noah's experience, and it will serve a.s a backdrop for a drama presenlation. Using materials thai have been donated. 25 members of the church congregalion have been hard at work constructing the one-lenth model of the ark out of oak and sycamore. The ark, when completed. will be 57 feet long and three stories tall. Dr. Acree admits thai the book of Genesis gives little detail about lhe actual appearance of the ark, other than its dimensions. The congrega· tion lias participated in design con· tesls, but Acree said the ark model best reflects his own vision of what the massive ship looked like.

REED Sentinel News Staff Projected funding for local school districts for the new fiscal year are encouraging, but could be mislead· ing. Figures released earlier this week by State Rep. Tom Johnson, R-New Concord. who serves as chairman of the Ohio House of Representatives Finance Committee. show that all three school districts in Meigs County will receive an increase in state school funding dollars. The increase promises a windfall for the districts, but only temporari· ly, according to Lisa Ritchie. trea· surer for the Eastern Local School District. According to Johnson, the Eastern district will receive an increase of 13.3 percent for the fiscal year which began July I. In Fiscal Year '98, according to Johnson. the Ea.'tem district received $3.114,705 dollars in state funds. and will receive $3,530,268 for fiscal year '99, for an increase of over $415.000. The Meigs Local School District will see a 16.3 percent raise. from $8,297,769 to $9,643,800. and South· em Local a 7.8 percent increa.•e fro'll $2,280,978 to $2.458,899. These funds include what is commonly known as foundation money. funds paid per pupil to the district ba.o;ed on a formula using the district's average daily membership. the dis· trict's co.st of doing business and the socioeconomic condition of the dis· trict. The Ea.~tem figures include sub· sidies for textbooks and schml bus· es. Equity funds. paid to poorer school districts. are also included in the figures. Ritchie said, and that is why the figures are not as encourag· ing a.' they may seem. Those equity funds are being slowly taken away from the districts, and in three years, will no longer be available. "For the next three years. we're going to be in good shape," Ritchie said. "but after that. a lot of this mon· ey will no longer be available to us. " Ritchie said that while the state promises an increase in its basic aid to districts through the foundation funding. those increases wi II not make up the loss in equity funds . Johnson said that provisions of House Bill 770. which addre-ses changes in the school fundin g poli cies at the state level. do n01 affect the figures. "The changes relatin g to the school funding formula were gener· ally technocal and clarifying and did not impact the distribution of aid to school districts," Johnson said.

Northeast wilts as heat wave expands; relief on horizon By MARK KENNEDY Associated Preu Writer As soaring temperatures baked New England in a suffocating heat wave blamed for deaths from coust to coast, Frank Hagan needed a jacket. Hagan had one fear as his work day hanging meat inside a freezing Boston meat locker came to an end: going back outside. "It seems like 105 to us once we get off work," he said. Cooler temperatures- still in the 80s and 90s - were forecast for today across parts of the Plains, South and Nonheast. And in northern Texas, where the heat wave has been centered for more than two months, tempef11tures may drop below I00 this weekend But on Wednesday, the record-set· ting heat kept a stranglehold on much of the country, from New England to the Soulhwest. It is blamed for 133 deaths. . Since the heat began in mid-May, atleast87 people have died in Texas, 26 in Louisiana, 13 in Oklahoma, ll three in Missouri, two in Pennsylvania and one death each in California and Arizona. Dallas hit 102 degrees Wednesday; the 17th day in a row with tempera· turcs o~~er I00. Record .highs .were also set at Dulles Airpon near Wash· ington, D.C.• at 98 degrees and at Atlantic City, NJ .. which hit 96. "It's like getting in a car after it's been sitting in the sun for a while," ,;aid Donrw Bartha. a patient advocate in Norristown, Pa., whiJ feared for elderly in non-air conditioned hospital rooms. The elderly were advised in many states to be particularly cautious and to call a doctor if they felt dizzy, had a headache or showed other signs of hCIII stress. And despite high demand. utility officials in Texas urged consumers to leave their air-i:ODditioning units on and worry about the bill Ill· cr. "We are not going to disconnect your services during these hot times," said utility official Ron Keeney. With the temperature in New York reaching 93 and the humidily making it feel more like I t0 degrees. meteo· mlogists announced Wednesday as the hottest day of the year. Boston, too, recorded a stining 93, a new high. The Big Apple was so hot that Brook Betz preferred to trudge I0 blocks to work rather than go beneath ground. "You couldn't pay me to take the subway today," Betz said. "There's no air down there." Fire officials in New York, Baltimore and Trenton, N.J., allowed hydran~ fitted with spray caps - a sprinkler of sons - to be turned on in neighborhoods without pools.

Oflio Starr's performance will color review of prosecutor law By WALTER R. MEARS AP Special Correspondent WASHINGTON -When Congress sets about renewing. overhaulingor undoing -the independent counsel law neu spring, Kenneth Starr 's performance will be exhibit A. And whatever his pursuit of President Clinton produces by next spring, Democrats are going to be arguing that the way he's going about it warrants restraints on his successors. Republicans contend be's di splaying the independence the Jaw was written to provide so that administrations wouldn't be investigating themselves - · and that there ought to be more, notably on Democratic fund-raising abuses in the 1996 campaign. That 's a role reversal since the last time the Jaw was revived, after an ISmonth lapse forced by Republicans outraged when an independent counsel went after their president, George Bush. with a politically damaging report just before he lost the 1992 election to Clinton. Ironically, Clinton and Attorney General Janet Reno then urged Congress to renew the independent counsel Jaw that gave Starr his franchise, Whitewater at first, now broadened and centered on the Monica Lewinsky sex and cover- up allegations. Starr's no-holds methods have been riling Democrats for months, never more thJn in his theatrical enforcement of subpoenas for testimony from Clinton's Secret Service bodyguards. called before a stand-in grand jury as soon as he got court clearance. Under the independent counsel law expiring next June, prosecutors must operate in accord with established Justice Department policies, a provision originally included at Republican insistence. 1be Democrats say he has ignored that rule , especially in forcing Secret Service agent• to testi fy to questions about what they 've observed and heard while protecting the president. No federal prosecutor had sought to compel such testimony before. Starr argued that ,;,e Secret Servtee "may hJve observed evidence of possib!, crimes, " ano won the power to question them. The Justice Department and the Secret Service had argued that to do so would intrude on the protection of presidents, this one ,and his successors, who might keep more distance from agents who could become forced witnesses. This is not a situation in which agents are al'le~l!d to have seen the president overtly committing a crime. Instead, Starr wants pieces of a puzzle he can use to build a case that there was a crime - presumably perjury or cover-up. Even his defenders agree that there ought to be some limits on what a prosecutor can demand of a prcs identi~l bodyguard. and Sen. Orrin Hatch, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Commillec, said he ' ll have the committee take thai up ·next year. He said Secret Servtcc witnesses should be summoned only in "the most serious cases. where testimony is unique and directly related to accusations of criminal hehavtor.

Do Feds plot takeover of student loans? By Morton Kondracke In 1993, the Clinton administration proposed a govemmenttakeover of student loans. Congress balked, but private lenders charge the Administration is engaged in a new stealth attack on their business. On July I, the Depanment of Education issued a· regulation culling the government rate for consolidat · ing existing loans by 0.8 percent -an action that a leading lender said could sci off an avalanche of refinancing and decimate the private market. AI Lord. CEO of Sallie Mae. a private corporation that purchases student loans from banks and other lenders. charged in an interview thai .. every lnan in our JXlrtfolio is vulnerahlc " and that the DOE action is "aimed at killing oft' private-sector lending." Administration officials deny any such grandiose purpose. but there 's no question that the government is in direct competit ion with the private sector and is using its price advantage In pull the market its way. Student loans are a booming husincss . Counting current and past students, there arc about 18.5 million borrowers with total loans oulstanding ·of $135 hillion. Prior to 1993. students could expect to pay an average of about 9 percent interest on loans when they got out of school. Charging that rate wos too high, the incoming Clinton Administration proposed a direct government lending program amounting to a federal takeover of the business, but Congress decided on parallel governmenl and privale programs giving the governmenl an advantage by assessing privale lenders a Kondracke 1.05 percent fcc, or tax, when borrowers consolidated their loans. Besides offering students a lower rate than banks could, federal oJ'ficials. including Education Secretary kichard Riley and even President Clinton. lobbied univer~ity presi dents to slop offering their student~ a private loan option and to handle only direct government loans. Despite such efforts, the student Joan market remains 70 percent private. 30 percent federal -- largely because universi ties find the private . market mo.c efficient and less bureaucratic. An executive at one consonium of universities said that management of the Department of Education's Joan program is "profoundly incompctenl" and "abysmally run." One of the darkest moments in the -program occurred last Octoher, when DOE found itself with a backlog of 80.000 applications for consolidation of existing student loans and announced it couldn 't accept any more. Consolidation allows students ·who graduate with several loans -often taken out at different rates -- 10 combine them into a single payment. Traditionally, the consolidation rate has been the average rate of the outstanding loans . For nearly three months last year, the government suspended its consolidation programs and Congress, to provide relief, allowed · private lenders to consolidate government loans as well as private ones. However, Congress also cut the rate that hanks could charge for consolidatcd loans In 8.25 percent -- the same rate charged for new student loans -- and they still had to pay a 1.05 percent fcc to the government. This year, Congress has revisited the student loan program twice. First, an amendment to the highway bill set the rate for new student loan s at the 91 -day Treasury bill rate plus 3.1 percent, or 7.46 percent in the cu rrent markcl. down from 8.25 percent. Then. in the process of reauthorizing the Higher Education Act, the House voted to return to the old systern of averaging rates, for consoli dating old loans. The Senate's HEA bill is silent on consolidation rates. With higher education headed for a House -Senate conference, the Administration unilaterally moved to reduce the consolidation rate from 8.25 to 7.46 percent, claiming it was me.cly keeping it the same as the new loan rate. It added, though, that the rate change was also designed to help By Dian Vujovlch Ever wonder when the best lime to invest in stocks is? One ·quick answer would be " when you've gol the money."

Teams that art on thest plans receive a certain share of the purse each time they participate in the race . Thne plans wert devised to encourage teams to run the full circuit and to reward a consistently high level of performance. That's why the eligible teams often make mort money than somc ·other teams that finish ahead of them.

Sometimes, I a.'k students whalthe opening lead was. The weaker players don' t know. (I ·advise them to rearrange their hand, pulling the led suit on, say, lhe right) 'The better ones answer that il was, say, a club. (I recommend lhal if they have a scorecard handy, to write the lead into lhe card. One cannot refer 10 it during play, but this improves one's chance of remembering lhe exact card.) The best players answer correctly, of course. How would you plan lhe play in this three-no-trump contract? Wesl leads the heart seven. There is a natural reaction lo finesse dummy's heart 10 (or queen) . But if you do lhal, you should fail to make the contract What did West lead? What does that card tell you? Right ·· he led the hean seven. which is presumably fourth highest from his longest and strongest When someone leads fourth highest, apply the Rule of Eleven. Take seven from ! I. Now you know there are four hearts higher than the seven m the dummy, East's hand and your hand combined. And you can see all four: your eight and dummy's ace-queen10. So, Easl has no heart higher than the seven. That tells you l<? run lhe forsllrick round 10 your eight Nexl, play a heart lo dummy 's 10. Return to your hand with, say, a spade to the queen, finesse dummy's heart queen, and claim nine tricks: three spades, four hearts, one diamond and one club.

The message I want to convey is this : YOUR INHERITANCE IS NOT AUTOMATIC. IT'S A GIFf. I am an estate planner. Over the last several years. I have seen many clients change their wills. bypassing children and grandchildren . and leave their money to friends, charities and people they once worked with who were kind and helpful. There are many reasons for changing a will, but the two most common are disrespect and isolation. In some families, the only time the old folks see the grandchildren is when their parents need a favor usually, it's money. So, what the old folks are basically saying is "io hell with you. You didn 't want to make time for me when I was lonely and would have loved your company, so why should I leave you the money I worked for all my life '" Wake up out there . An inheri tance tsn't something that is owed to you. It is a gift of love. When there is no Jove, there should be no gift.Manasota, Fla.

Architect outlines design change on new Southern Local building A design update on the new Southern Local Elementury School was one topic of Wednesday night's · meeting of the Southern Local Board of Education. The board met with Jack Pottmeyer. architect for Marr-Knapp-Cmwtls Associates Inc .. New Philadelphia, who e~plained that a Y-shaped building design discussed earlier this month would have trouble liuing into available space. So he pre.>ented a revised drawing in which a 45-degree bend in the classroom area, focused on the library, will likely be made into a straight corridor. The design still features the library as a focal point, and places younger children downstairs with a separate bus entrance for kindergartners. "It's still an attractive design," said Superintendent James Lawrence . In addition. the board authorized the issuance of $4,040.000 in bond anticipation notes pending the sale of bonds to finance the new building. In personnel mailers, the board accepted the resignation of Kent Howell, music teacher, due to his accepting employment in the Meigs Local School District. The board tabled discussion on hiring a new music teacher. The board employed Michelle Barr' to till the position of fifth grade teacher at Syracuse Elementary School on a one-year contract and as high school cheerleading advisor for the 1998-9H school year. The board also approved a motion to extend the workday of the secretaries from 4-1/2 hours to seven hours, a move ihat will eliminate the need to hire a new secretary in the district. Lawrence said. In other business, the board: • Approved the adoption of art, music. and family and consumer science textbooks as recommended by the Athens-Meigs County Educational Service Center effective the 1998-99 school year. • Agreed on pay-to-play fee for the golf team to cover team expenses. • Approved membership in the Ohio Coalilion of Equity and Adequacy in School Funding at a cost of $419.50, or 50 cents per student, and in the Coalition of Rural and Appalachian Schools at a cost of $300 for the 1998-99 school year. Board President Bob Collins and board member Marty MorJrity voted against joining the groups. • Approved the following suppliers for the upcoming school year: Heiner's Bakery. bread: Broughton. milk; Snouffer's Fire & Safety, fire extinguishers; G & M Fuel Co. Inc .. fuel and oil ; Standard Food. food and supplies; Nationwide Insurance. Oeet insurance; Tire Warehouse, tires and tubes . • Discussed the future possibility of an alternative school in the county for students placed on out-of· school suspension. • Approved Home National Bank.

Eastern Board slates open house. for new elementary school Aug. 24 By BRIAN J. REED Sentinel News Staff An open house at the new Eastern Elementary School ha~ been tentatively set for Aug. 24, and the Eastem Local Board of Education met with architect Barry Ingham on Thursday night to discuss final steps toward completing the district's building program. During its regular monthly meet· ing la~t night, the board discussed several facets of the project which are still incomplete, specifically the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system, as well as the sewer lle8tment plant, which was destroyed by the June flooding . The HVAC systems in both the elementary and high school buildings are slill incomplete, and the buildings are expected to be tumed over to the school district on Aug. 14. Board member Greg Bailey said thaT he had met with the foreman for General Temperature Control Inc. of Canal Winchester about what the board has deemed unnecessary delays in compreting the system's installation. The board agreed to work with Ingham, of the architectural firm Vargo. Cassady, Ingham & Gibbs, to draft a Jetter to the firm outlining its concerns. Meanwhile, the sewer treatment plant will require complete replacement due to damage of the leachate material in the June flood. Superintendent Deryl Well said that the district has n:ceived assistance from several suppliers to replace the system, which had just been constructed but was not covered by property insurance or builder's risk insurance. The system was constructed and will be replaced by D.V. Weber Construction of Reedsville. Well said that several agencies were looking at the Tuppers Plains and Chester school buildings for possible office space and educational use. The Meigs County Community Improvement Corporation and the Tuppers Plains Regional Sewer District have expressed interest in leasing space in one of the two buildings, and Gallia/Meigs Head Start has indicated interest in klcating a center in the Chester building. Well also noted that the Athens/Meigs Educational Service Center will develop a shon·term alternative school for students who receive suspensions and other disci· plinary action.

J Tart's proposals to restore the balance included: • Giving consumer.~ the right to sue their health insurer ror damages caused by the refusal to cover certain medical procedures. • A quicker appeals process for consumers who are denied coverage. Taft's plan would require a decision within 72 hours in life-threatening cases and 14 days in Jess severe cases. • The creation of a toll-free hot line where consumers could find out their rights under their plans and state law. • Allowing women to choose their gynecologist or obstetrician a.~ their primary care provider. .. • Guaranteed coverage for emerxency room v1s1ts. • A requirement that health plans allow their customers to choose a doc- . tor or spec:ialist outside of the plan's network as long as the consumer pays · the extra costs. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
