We have a lot of exciting things for them to do. and it's great to watch them learn." According to Mrs. Gill, learning takes place in many different ways, "We're working on our citizenship requirements while doing flag raising. They learn about primary colors while painting their shields. It is a good program for boys - and they love the opportunity to be at camp." Xirinachs praised the involvement of the adult leaders and community support. "We couldn't put on a camp of this size without adults who willingly give their time to make this a success. They are the backbone of the program." The camp will end today with a cookout provided by the Moose Club. Parents and Cubs are invited to a family camp out following the closing program.

Arnold discussed the many plants and herbs in her garden, noting that a rare plant, cardoons, is a highlight of the garden. She described it as a mix of oyster plant and anichoke with an ever-so-slight bitterness of eggplant. She said that cardoons have been eaten since ancient times and noted that the plant can be stewed, baked or dressed up in sauces. It grows six to eight feet tall and has grey-green serated leaves and deep blue thistle:r.Described them as "invaders", she suggested picking the flower heads before they mature and spread. Besides eating the plant, she said it goes well in dried arrangements. As for the use of the Oower heads, the plants need to be blanched by wrapping them in newspapers for about a month, then cut and destrung, parboiled. then made into soups. sauces or fried . Another popular plant discussed by Arnold was St. John 's Word, used by the Greeks and Romans to stop bleeding, for healing wounds and in ceremonies commemorating the birthday of John, the Baptist. Today it is used for boosting the immune system, jet lag. healing wounds, varicose veins, and congestion, and is also said to be effect in the fight against cancer and AIDS . Maurita Miller opened the meeting with devotions using scripture from Matthew on mustard, a native of the Holy Land and Israel. She said that birds love it and it is the world's smallest seed. For roll call members named their favorite herb and its use. Sage. ..//'' • f I MADELINE .JANE QUILLEN chives, thyme, poppy sees, mint, garlic and pineapple sage were among the herbs named. Arnold described herbs as anything that grows has a use, either for flavoring, cosmetic, medicinal, fragrance, cooking or decorating. A thank you was given for a hanging basket furnished by Maorita Miller for Paul Karr who had open bean surgery. The July sunshine project honored Clarice Krautter who has a broken ankle. The remembrance was provided by Kathryn Mora. A book was donated to the . Pomeroy Library on bluebirds by Pat ·Holter in memory of Debbie Miller, and a book on ·wildflowers was donated by Lula Toban in mem ory of Jean Frederick.

The home was appraised at S130,000, but Boston, now a real-estate agent. believes !he home wasn't worth half !hat figure.

Other problems included leaky plumbing, holes undemealh !he flooring, gaps the size of a human head in !he foundation. and continuous repairs to bolh the interior and exlerior of !he By WALTER R. MEARS AP Special Correspondent . WASHINGTON - Not under oath but on camera, addressin g the jury that counts in politics. President Clinton !old Americans six months ago, " I did nor have sexual relarions wirh char woman." !he vehement denial Monica Lewinsky is said 10 be dispuling. He will be sworn 10 cell rhe !ruth in v1deo1apcd restimony for special prosecutor Kennelh Starr's grand jury on Aug. 17. "The president back 1n January leveled wilh the American people," his spokesman said Wednesday. Mike McCurry said norhin g has changed that So far. rhe people 's verdict in the public opinion polls has been char they don '! necessarily believe Clinton's denial , but rhey don'! care much either. The surveys show 60 percenl-plus job approval ratings for Clinton, and · that among rhe same people, similar percenlages believe he had an affair with the former While House inlern, and !hat he 's lied abour it In the latest CBS News poll, 60 percenl said Clinron should testify- but majorities said Starr is runnmg a partisan investigation and disapproved of the grant of immunity from prosecution Ms. Lewinsky is gelling for her lestimony. And 40 percent said they 'd be sati sfied if Clinlon said no more abour the whole business. Split decisions like those have persisted since last winter, when Srarr had the sex and perjury allegations added to his Whitewarer portfolio. In the waiting and maneuvering since, !he advantage has been with !he White House, which blamed Starr for dragging out !he investigation, although disputes and appeals by Clinton's lawyers slowed the process. 11le latest round was settled Wednesday with the agreemenl that Clinton will testify on videotape from the White House. In the bargain, SUUT wilhdrew the subpoena he had issued, the first ever seeking to cm:,pel grand jury testimony from a president in a criminal case in which he w"~ a target. Until il was drupped, the While House ·had avoided confirming that the subpoena had even been served I 2 days ago. McCurry said he thought Americans are "kind of !ired of all the back and forth over this, to be candid." . Clinton's people sri II are counting on that Given the secrecy thai is supposed 10 shield grand jury proceedings, it has been a case of anonymous leaks, of dispute s about who's ceiling, including a While House altemptto have Starr's office held accountable in court. The open question is of the Political impact when Starr unseals his case, in indictments or in a report to the House on potentially impeachable charges against the president When murky sources become named accusers, !he reaclion could change, inlo a rurn against Clinton, or, conversely, a backlash againsl Republicans. . That could make the case an issue in the campaign for the Nov. 3 House and Senate eleclions. h hasn'l surfaced as one yet. For all the words said, wriuen and broadcast about the Lewinsky case, what is known and reported about it is basically what was known and reponed at the outset. that Starr is invesligaling allegations thai Clinlon had an affatr wilh the woman . encouraged her 10 lie aboul il under oath by denying it as a wirncss in the Paula Jone s sexual harassmenl sui I. and did so when he .denied it in his own depos irion. Clinton repeated chat denial three times in inrerviews on Jan. 21, rhe day the Srarr invesrigation was disclosed. Ms. Lewinsky's lawyer rried to make a deal with Starr for immuniry from prosecution on Jan . 26, and wilhin the week . word leaked that the offer was 10 say she had an affair with Clmton, but nor thai he had tried 10 gel her to lie aboul it Under rhc immunity granted Tuesday, she is said 10 be prepared to lestify that they had a sexual rclalionship and discussed ways of concealing it. That would contradict the Jan . 26 Clinton statement McCurry cited: "I wnntlo say one thing 10 the American people .... I did nol have sexual relari ons wi rh !hat woman , Miss Lc~ insky. I never told anybody 10 lie, nor a single time. never. These allegations are false." Since !hen. he had rurned aside every quesrion aboul rhe case.

But cwrent and former FHA officials and homeowners who spoke with our OSSO<;iate Kalhryn Wallace believe that FHA Moller r. appraisals should- Anderson n't be trusted . That's because, ·!hey say, mortgage bankers and real-estate interest groups have meddled wilh !he system 10 !he point where some appraisals amount to little ·more than a rubber-stamp approval of !he seller 's asking price. 11le FHA doesn 't actually issue money to a home buyer. FHA is an agency wilhin !he Depanment of Housing and UJban Developmenl that p!'\}vides mortgage insurance for lowincome people who don't qualify for a conventional loan. Since !he governmcnl completely covers any FHA loan in default. sOme lending OIJ!anizations issue larger loans and take bigger credit risks than !hey nonnally would; after all, it's the government lhnl takes !he risk while !he bank reaps !he profits.

They were trained by !he government and then dispalehed on a random basis to examine FHA homes. But former Sen. Alan Cranston. · 0-Calif., a darling of !he real~stale industry, pushed legislation in 1989 that allows !he baJiks lhemselves 10 decide who appraises FHA properties. Fully implemented in 1994, "lender-selecl" - as it is called -- ' 1pu1 !he fox in charge of !he henhouse," according to fomier appraiser Dale Hall. The problem, Hall explains, is that bankers naturally want !he higheSt possible price on a property, since il puts more money in their pocket. So do realtors, who get larger commissions. UnderCranslon's law, they 're now free to choose appraisers who might overlook needed repairs or intlale the price of the house. "Lenders let you know !hal if you don't play ball, you don 'I worit," Hall says. As a result. honest appraisers arc heing pushed out of the business, and home-buyers often have no idea what 600IP Gllt.IEF! IT WA<; .JUST Al"' APPI-1!-"'t'OU 'P Tfo\INI<.

Importing people from less developed nations will not always be an option for their birth rare has also dropped, from six to rhrec children per woman . While Europe is commiuing suicide, we arc heading in !he same direction. A median age for rhc world at the tum of the cerilury was aboul · 20. In another half century in some countries of Europe this will be about 55. Can anyone imagine what this will mean? 'Polirical correclness' is not being helpful, especially when !he disaster is of such magnitude. Americans deserve !he truth' 2. Anu-Christian persecution worldwide is lhe "in rhing". The Freedom From Religious Persecution Act had to be watered down in Congress in order 10 get something passed for countries overseas.

An attack dog lashed out at Siarr, saying he was dangerous to America because he "listens to hymns."

Las!, bul not leas!, is !he "polili-· cally correct" dcfinition·oflhe famny: as loose and broad a definition as possible. Even a White House Confercnce on the Family did not offer a dcfinition of the word. With the highest divorce rate in the world Americans arc in confusion ' about this intimate relationship.

However, more !han half (55%) rcjccrcd rhc notion that "it is a had idea for couples lo live logclher before !hey arc married."

Well, maybe not for all of us. but it should be pretty rosy and pretty easy for the lucky 13 of the Westerville area who hit the Powerball big bucks this week. Only one of the 13 winners has ~knowledged publicly as being one 9f the group. and according to the media. he's now sorry that he did that.

Paul Krause cried openly when speaking of his wife's recovery from a devastaling car accident. As usual, Tommy McDonald did things a little differently. His induelion speech was a cross 'between a sermon, a Michael Buffer monologue and a rock concert. Taking different paths to the podium, they were inducted into the Hall of Fame Saturday, along with Mike Singletary and Dwight Stephenson. "Oh baby! " shouted McDonald. the former Philadelphia Eagles receiver and smallest Hall of Farner at 5-foot-9. "Do I look excited, like I just won the lottery or the jackpot? Yes! I'm in the Hall of Fame!" The talented - and entertaining -class brought the hall's membership to 194, with 50 in attendance, including Lou Groza, Gale Sayers and fan favorite Art Donovan. McDonald stole the show, improvising and scampering around just a5 jle did during 12 seasons wich Philadelphia, Dallas, the Los Angeles Rams, Atlanta and Oeveland.

A more subdued but equally deserving group followed . Even as memories of their great careers flooded back, none of the five could believe they made it. "We were driving up .and I was the one asking the' kids . 'Are we there yet?' " Munoz said. "And I was driving. I kept saying, 'We 're on the way to Canton.' " This class alone would provide the nucleus of an awesome Pro Bowl ~earn .

"I hoped that what I did in that amount of time would be enough to .get '*in." Munoz, 6-6, 278 pounds, was one of the best offensive tackles ever to play.

I By DOUG FERGUSON WINDSOR, Ontario (AP) - The scores at the du Maurier Classic don'tlook like they belong at a major championship. The leaders do. Btandie Barton, a forgotten star slill in her 20s, stonned out of the pack with birdies on four of the last six holes Saturday for a 6-underpar 66 that gave her a three-stroke lead going into the final round. Burton, just 21 when she won the du Maurier Iii 1993, set a 54hole tournament record of 18-under 198 The previous m11rk WIIS 200 by Ayako Okamoto in 1987. She will be in the final · pairing today with Annika Sorenstam, who had a 5-under 67 and is playing her best in a major since winning her second straight U.S. Women's Open in 1996. "My putter hilS been very nice to the last three days," Burton said. "I just need ic to hold on for 18 more holes." It will have to. Those crying to chase her down at Essex Golf & Country Club have all proved they can handle the -pressure of the final round of a major championship. Meg Mallon, a former LPGA Championship and U.S. Open winner, also had a 67 and is tied with Sorenstam at 201. Pal Hurst, who won the year's first major at the Dinah Shone, and Beuy King, who needs to win the du Maurier to complete the women's grand slam. were five strokes back at203.

But a shoulder sepatation in a ·football game against Michigan limited his throwing ability alld turned him into a free safety.

His wife, Pam, isrecovering from a Clll accident 2 In years ago that left her in a coma for more than five days and close to death. Krause wept as she was helped to her feet to acknowledge an ovation. "We've been through some rough times lately, but we've stuck ·rogecher . because we love each other," Krause said. Singletary spent 12 hard-hitting · years as a linebacker with the Chicago Bears. Known for his intense eyes and rigorous game prcpatation, he was the soul of the Bears' stingy defense, finishing first or second in tackles II ye11rs in a row and playing in 10 Pro Bowls. Singletary, a deeply religious man, had prayed that his parents would be healthy enough to make it to the ceremonies. They were on hand to watch his wife, Kim, present him. "I wanted to choose someone who knew me at my best and at my worst and still loved me," Singletary said. Stephenson starred at a center for a series of high-scoring Miami Dol)lhins teams from 1980-87. Alabama's Paul "Bear" Bryant called him the best center he ever coached, and Don Shula called him the best center who ever played. But Stephenson frequently stood in the shadows. while lesser players and more colorful characters grabbed the headlines. "For a long time, he wasn 't recognized as the besc center to ever play and I believe he is," Dolphins quarterback and Hall of Farner-inwailing Dan Marino said. Coaches Shula and Jerry Burns introduced Stephenson and Krause, respectively, with spons writer and producer Ray Didinger presenting McDonald.

Gordon wins Brickyard 400, $1M bonus By MIKE HARRIS INDIANAPOLIS (AP)- Jeff Gordon won his second Brickyard 400 and a SI million bonus Saturday, holding off tenacious Mark Marti~ until a caution flag three laps from the end cut shon the drama. The sellout crowd of about 320,000 was on its feet and ready for a shootouc when Joe Nemechck bumped the rear of Jeff Green 's car near the back of the pack during .a restart on the I 58th of 160 laps at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Cars were suddenly strewn across the main straightaway, bouncing off the walls and each other as Gordon look the green flag at the front of the field. the first two-time Brickyard winner stayed out front easily, beating Martin back to the finish line to take the yellow flag by about five car-lengths. There was no way that NASCAR could get· the crack cleaned up in time to get the field back ro racing, ' so Gordon was able to drive hi s Chevrolet Monte Carlo to the checkered tlag behind che pace car at a leisurely I00 mph. " I guess when ic' s meant co be, it's just meant co be," said Gordon, who will turn 27 on Tuesday. "When we won here in '94, every ~ thing just went our way, and it was the same today." Bobby Labonte was third, followed by Mike Skinner and teammate Dale Earnhardt. Gordon, frequently booed around the Winston Cup circuit, was a popular winner this time. He grew up noc far from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Pillsboro. In the drama that preceded the final caution, Martin made his big move on Gordon. "He made a great effort," Gordon said of Martin, who is second to him in the points race. "He drove in on me in tum two, was trying to get on my rear bumper and I didn't know if I could get away from him or not. " I think he got just a little bit tighc when he got real close to me." Six days before the Brickyard, during a CART race ac Michigan Speedway, three speccarors were killed and six more were injured when a wheel and other debris from a one-car crash flew into a grand - Andres Galamga -to stardom. "Like any player, he wants to play in the big leagues," said Alley Cats bench coach Amador Arias, also from Venezuela. "And he can get there in lime." In the meantime, Sequea can look forward to no-frills Class A parks and wily, older hitters- all of 18 or 19 - who have something co show this fastball phenom. There are also back-stiffening bus rides hundreds of miles to places like'-Macon, Ga., and Asheville, N.C. There are countless stops at McDonald's and Burger King. ,. "lc's still all ver>1pxciting_," Sequea said, using Arias," an incerpreter. "But the road tripi are long. I never traveled like that before. We eat a lot of fast food ." ..,~ · · Before he urived in Charleston, Sequea had never gone .more than iwo hours from his home, had never been on an aiJplane and had never been away from his family for more stand . H was the worst accident involving spectators ever at a major American race venue . The tragedy appeared to have no effect on Saturday's race, wich the usual festive sellout crowd, all occupying grandstand seats, on hand on a warm, sunny afternoon. There were several crashes during che race, but nothing from the wrecked cars got past the 19-fooc fencing . Although Gurdon dominated the race . leading ~7 laps. Martin and Dale Jarrell hoth had the crowd in an uproar in the :11e going. Martin, who had been running second to Gordon before the last pit stops by the leaders, had. a problem With a lugnuc during hts stop and was 11th for the restart on lap 124. Gordon came out of that stop fourth as he took four new ttrc s while Earnhardt, Skinne r and Sterling Marlin each took two and beat th e two -time Winscon Cup champion back onlo the track. But the high -flying Gordon, winner of six races thi s season , including the last lwo, took second in his lirsc tnp around the 2 112-milc oval . then Earnhardt to take the lead for good on lap 127 . Meanwhile, Martin' s Ford was slicing through the field . It took him only until lap 144 to cake second, and it appeared he would be able to chal lenge Gordon . But cwo late caution nags kept him bollled up . Jarrell, who led 27 laps earl y in the race and appeared to have one of the fastesl cars on the track all day , cost himself a shot at winning ho s second Brick yard 400 when he ran ' out offuel on lap 81. By the time he came out of the pits after coasting around most of the track, Jarrell was four laps down to the leaders . To the deltghl of the big crowd, and wllh the help of caution nags, he was able to get back on lead lap. But, by the tome he was back among the leaders, it was too late to make a real run at Gordon and Jarrell fini shed 16th. Gordon, who now has 35 career victories. is the first driver to get the $1 million bonus from series sponsor Winston for its No Bull 5 promotion, which offers the hig money to any of the cop-five fini shers in NASCAR 's five biggest events who can won the next of the ma1urs. he has adjusted well to life in the minor leagues, where most of the youngest players have at least finished high school. Sequea first reported to the Ci'!_ci~!Jali Reds ' spring training facility in Sarasota, Fla., ·oo March 5 and made his Class A debut in June, a 3-1 victory over the Hagerstown Suns. Sequea dominated his early out· ings, building a 3-0 record in his first five starts with a stingy I .88 earned-run average. His pitches are regularly -clocked in the mid-80s. Then came the four consecutive losses, sending his ERA to 4.70. In the ltist loss, he gave up five runs and nine hits in five innings to Cape another in the loss to Cape Fear, prompting a visit from the pitching coach. " I told him he can't take out his frustration like that just because he 's getting ripped," Rabouin said. The Reds are willing to wait. The team di scovered Sequea at a Venezuelan national youth league toumamenc, and he was one of several Mexican and Venezuelan players signed by the team late last year. Unlike che rest of South America, where soccer is king, baseball is the national sport of Venezuela, where the game was introcluced by American oil workers.

Alley Cats' 'boy wonder' brings high heat 89CHEVY CORSICA • 18.H8 PITTSBURGH (AP) - Jose Lima, in danger of losing his starting job to Randy Johnson, pitched a five-hiller and struck out I0 as the Houston Astros beat the Pinsburgh Pirates 2-1 Saturday. The Astros , who led the NL Central even before landing Johnson in a deadline-beating trade Friday night, have won five of six . The Pirates have lest five of'six." Manager Larry Dierker said before the game that only Sean Bctr~onan and Mike Hampton were sure of staying in the rotation. Lima (10-6) then went out and limited the Pirates to three hits in the final seven innings. He walked one in his second consecutive complete game. Before Saturday, Lima had a 23 .63 ERA in three career appearances against the Pirates. The Astros managed only a run in seven innings against Pirates starter Jason Schmidt before caking the lead in the eighth. Ricardo Rincon walked pinch-hiller Ricky Gutierrez with the bases loaded after consecutive two-out singles off Mike Williams (2 - 1) by Moises Alou, Carl Everell and Brad Ausmus. Cubs 3, Rockies 2 At Chicago, the Chicago Cubs, helped by a lucky bounce over the shoulder of right-fielder Sammy Sosa with tWO outs in the ninth inning, held off the Colorado Rockies 3-2 Saturday.

"Kings of the Beach" Karch Karaly and Sinjin Smith were involved in the match with their respective partners Adam Johnson and Ricki Lutties, but you would have thought rhar Karoly and Sinith were playing one-on-one on the lleach from the way the announcers called the match. Phrases like "Sinjin hopes to avenge his loss to Karch in the 96 Olympics" peppered the broadcast and really rook away from some grea1play by Johnson and Lunies. which wtnt largely unnoticed by the broadcast team. During the NBA playoffs. broadcasters got all hot and bothered over whether Michael Jordan would win "his sixth world championship," and seemed less concerned with the Bulls a~ a team. except for the brewing controversy about Phil Jackson and Seonie Pippen and their future with Chicago.

I was in Beaver, Ohio, last week to discuss the upcoming college football season with Mark Bapst, southeast Ohio's self-professed biggest Buckeyes fanatic. I could tell by the gleam in his eyes and the quiver in his voice that he was ncr· vous about the upcoming season. Mark was confident that Ohio State would be very high in the pre· season polls; however, he was already nervous about the Bucks' first game, the "backyard brawl" against West Virginia. "It'D be a touch game, alld it's early in the season," he said. "Any· thing can happen! Look at the Mar· shali-WVU game last year! The Herd could have won that game! I'm wonied about an early season ugset." · There's nothing like preseason football in Ohio. Mark was glAd that the Bucks will host both Penn Slate aqd Michiga~ in the Shoe this year. But I am still amazed at the wonied look on his face. Such anguish over f<iotball and John Cooper. · The Rose Bowl is still five .OOnths away, but Buckeyes fans are already restless.

Hav· ing Michael, Scottie and Dennis in your lineup makes you look like a great coach. Second, Jackson has publicly reiterated that he doesn't want to coach tbe Bulls again. He has retired to .Montana to live the life of a Zen masler. So tell me, MJ, what pan of the word NO don't you understand? Pfcase look up the word no in the dij:iionary. Oh! You know the mean· ing!

Barnes' B sample positive Tim Aoyd to coach the team. By BERT ROSENTHAL Consc· quently, if Jordan and · the n:st of the Bulls want to defend their title, it mUSI be with Floyd at the helm. If Jordan wants to be a spoiled, pampered baby and cry, whine, hold his bRalb and threaten to retire if Pbil 's not bad, let him. I don't care if he is tbe best player in the game's history, the game will go on without him. ,, At best, it is mremely mogant of Jordan to ·make such IICifJSh demands. His ego mUst be accom· modated, because be refuses to accept change in his lifestyle. How dare the Bulls work with another coach now that MJ's 35 years old! Isn't pride and $35 million 1 year in salary enough reason to defend your title? No other Bulls player is making such demands. But in the NBA, supe~tar players like Jordan, Magic. Johnson and Penny Hard· away can and do influence coaching changes. I am sure the millions of workers who help to pay Jordan"s salary would love to have that kind of power. Unfortunately, they have to work for a living. I can see it now: future historians will write that the run of the Bulls was stopped after the 1997-98 sea· son. Not by another team, but by the "game's greatest player" refusing to play for a new coach. How's that fot a legacy? With all of the debates surround· ing the National League's MVP this year, I would like to forget all the home run hitters and nominate Houston's Craig Biggio. · Biggio is leading every leadoff man in every statistic: average, stolen bases, home runs, runs, runs batted in, etc. You name it, he's at the top of the list He's also a gold glove second baseman and a !!Cventime AII·Star. He's tbe one who sets the table for Bell, Bagwell, Alou and Everett. Yes, McGwire, Sosa and Vaughn get the headlines, but Biggio is on is way to a.. Hall of !'arne career with few people realizing how good he is. Remember, he was an All-Star catcher before they made him inu~ a second baseman! I just love the way he plays the game. .

Track and field's world governing body today confirmed the B sample from Barnes· out-of-competition test April I showed the U!!C of a banned nutritional supplement. Barnes, the 1996 Olympic gold medalist and world indoor and out· door record-holder. faces a lifetime ban for a second offen!IC. His next step is to go before USA Track & Field's Doping Hearing Board. "After the hearing. if the panel decide~ he is guilty. he will be suspended for life," Giorgio Reineri, a spokesman for the International Amateur Athletic Federation. said from Annecy. France. site of the World Junior Championships. '"If the panel decides he is 1101 guilty. he could be free to compete again." To go before the board, Barnes must make a reque~t by the second week of August, said lawyer Bob Duplantis, who along with hi~ !Kin, Greg, represents Barnes. Actually. there could be two more steJX' available to Barnes if the three· member hearing board finds against him. The first would be to go before USATF's Doping Appeals Board. a different three-member panel. The appeals board cannot hear new evidence: it can determine only whether protocol was followed. · If discrepancies are round. the appeals board can dismiss the case. It then goes back to the IAAF, which can agree with the board or say Barnes is banned .. If the IAAF bans Barnes. he then can go to binding arbitration. Barnes· test in Charleston.

"I did not receive notice from USATF or the IAAF that this supplement was pro· hibited until after the drug test." "We still do not know when it was put on the list," Duplantis said.

His spiritual outlook. angelic composure and gentle nature come from a soul that's been tested by torture. It's a story so inspiring, a major network has plans for a television movie. Born in 1970, Sha!p was raised in a family of seven brothers and sisters, and numerous foster children . At one point there were 14 people living in his parents' Christian household. Kevin was on stage by age 3, when the Shai])S fonned a family musical unit to perform at church functions. He was seven when they moved from rural North Carolina to Weiser, Idaho, the home of the National Fiddle Festival. "Music has always been the most powerful thing in my life," said Sharp.

He's devoted to his family of three little girls. He sold cars and lnlcks by day and ignited Southern California audiences with his fiery brand of We!!t Coast honky tonk late into the nights, sill evenings a week. No small wonder that Gary Allan's voice carries the imprint of life's experiences far beyond his young years. When he sings, he travels the rich emotional landscape of the enduring themes of country music loVe, heartache, joy, redemption - with an astonishing depth for a young artist. Also, no small wonder that when be came to Nashville for the farst time in his life, within weeks, six major labels wanted to sign him. "Used Heart for Sale," the debut album for Decca delivers Allan's authentic, roots-based country music that was born in the hooky tonks of Southern California, nurtured on a lifelong love of country greats George Strait and Merle Haggard, and filtered through the dusty stteets of Buck Owell5' Bakersfield. Allan attributes his unique sound of authentic westem·swinging honky tonk to his years developing his talent in the clubs. and his deep love of playing to an audience. "We don't sound like anybody. And that only happens when you play in the clubs and develop your own thing. There's just a magic that develops when you play with the same people every night."

Fast food is a daily dining experience for millions of Americans. But a new approach called Slow Food, imported from Italy, is trying to make us ease our pace. "The Slow Food movement is committed to the preservation and restoration of a traditional convivial joy, the joy of the table," says Jonathan White, a ·member of the · Slow Food organization and owner of Egg Fann Dairy in Peekskill, N.Y. "And that's not just about food and wine; it's also about kinship and companionship, which you just don't get going to a drive-through and eating in traffic." Whopper lovers, don't have a meltdown. Slow Food may use a snail as its logo, but it's not anti-fastfood . "We're not against anything," White says. "Our agenda is to educate people who don 't know about the pleasures of the table and. through education, to help traditional food anisans - bakers, cheesemakers, farmers growing heirloom vegetables ~ to survive by sustaining demand for their product." Members of Slow Food meet for long. leisurely meals. They talk food, wine, culture and philosophy. They ·organize wine tastings and cooking classes. But most of all, they work to eradicate the "nuke it and eat it" American lifestyle. . "Slow l'ood 1s not only about literally eating slowly, but also about savoring and appreciating the pleasures of good food and drink. Slow Food is a way of life." says its Web site (www. slow-food.com). But don 't think Slow Food is only for food snobs, says Slow Foodist David Auerbach, a philoso'phy professor at North Carolina State University. "I' m not interested iri exotic food. expensive food or cbnllli!Jseurslilp· for Its own salce. I'm interested in the way Slow Food supports local growers, producers and food artisans. " After all. White says, "in Italy they say even the poor man has the i•·Y of the table three times a day." Be>ides promoting a new food philosophy, Slow Food produces a magazine, aptly titled Slow, and sponsors "conviviums1" or sociable food events, locally and internationally. White's New York chapter recreated the family dinner from Tliomas Mann's novel Suddenbrooks, complete with period dress, Auerbach is planning several event! for his chapter, including one cen· tered on the revival of bread baking.

Programs help men unlearn violence patterns By KAREN S. PETERSON USA TODAY Anti-battering programs for abusive men are neither as bad as some critics suggest nor as effective as their most ardent supporters claim, according to the author of a federally funded study of programs in four cities. "Overall, our conclusion is these programs are worth doing," says Edward Gondolf of the Mid-Atlantic Addiction Training Institute, based at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. He calls the study "the most comprehensive and extensive evaluation of battering interven tions to date." About 40 percent to 45 percent of the men battered again within 30 months after a treatment program, according to reports by their female partners. But that means about 60 percent of the 382 women studied were not physically abused again, Gondolf says. "This is a substantial accomplishment, considering the problems the men bring to the programs," including alcohol and drug abuse, he says. Sixty-nine percent of the women said they were better off after the program ; 83 percent felt they were very safe; 84 percent said it was very unlikely they would be hit again in the next few months . Sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and PreventiOn, the study looked at sites in Pittsburgh, Houston. Dallas and Denver. Programs vaned in approach and in length from three to nine months. One of his most controversial findings, Gondolf says, is that longer. more intensive programs did not necessarily produce better results . He can't fully explain why that is so, but speculates it may reflect factors other than the quality of the programs themselves. About half of the women who were assaulted again were beaten repeatedly. Only about 16 percent of the female partners reported "ve ry positive, good changes in their relationship. " Gondolf says advocates for battered women claim many women arc worse off when their abusive partners arc forced by courts into treatment. "There are many horror stories out there, and these programs do make things worse for some. But the majority of women indicate they are better off." Res·ults of the study will be presented Monday at the International Conference on Family Violenc e Research at the University of New Hampshire in Durham.

" Women have a key role in the health-care system, and it 's become ·more powcrful now."

Coordinator for the focus group di scussion held at the Senior Citizens Center was Sharon Denham, RN ,DSN, an associate professor at the School of Nursing at Ohio University. She explained that a study is being done to determine the extent of the problem of domestic violence and abuse in Meig s and Scioto Counties. A new awareness, she said, cou ld hopefully result in developing ways of deterring abuse, which she described as a "serious, sometimes hidden and ignored, problem." Representatives of several agencies who deal with the domestic violence and abuse attended the meeting where the emphasis was on determining the seriousness of the issu,e and how it can best be combated. At the meeting were Hilda lirado, director of Serenity House, a temporary shelter for misplaced and homeless women of Gallia and Meigs ·Counties; Rhonda Dailey, vice president of nursing at Veterans Memorial Hospital; Sherry Shamblin, ACCESS Headstart Mental Health specialist; Cindy Mills, Social Service supervisor of the Meigs County Department of Human Services; John Costanzo, superintendent of the Athens-Meigs Educational Service Center; and Connie Little, prenatal director of the Meigs County Health Depart- ment. Five key questions were presented by Dr. Denham with an indepth discussion being held on each one. They were: How is domestic violence a problem in Meigs County? How does one become an abused person or the abuser? How does a member of a famil y of abusers choose to not become an abuser? What kind of resources are there in Meigs County to help deal with abuse? What is lacking in individual agencies regarding abuse and violence issues? A variety of responses came from the agency representatives. Wh&lc there was general consensus that domestic violence is a problem, solutions were less defined. Information from the meeting will be used as part of a study that Dr. Denham is currently conducting by utilizing funding received from the Ohio Campus Compact grant. The monies from the grant are being used to create opportunities· for student learning through community experience. Questionnaires have been developed and are being disseminated. to two groups of the female population in both Meigs and Scioto Counties and the study will be completed using data from the two counties; female health care workers and mothers who are currently pregnant or who have recently delivered. The surveys will be completed by the individuals and mailed in a postage paid envelope to Ohio University's School of Nursing so that confidentiality and anonymity may he maintained. The data will be collected through the end of August and the report is e.pected to be completed hy the end of this year. Scientists say -feeding junk food to pigs makes tastier pork . DENVER (AP) - Feeding junk food 10 p1gs makes for tastier pork, researchers say. Oh io State University researchers turned potato chips de stined for the landfill into pelleted feed for more than 250 pigs. The result was juicier, more tender chops. The findin g was rcpor((d at this week's national mcctin?! of the American Society of Animal Science and American Dairy Science Association at the Colorado Convention Center. Researchers said they decided to feed the pigs chips - sour-creamand-onion and barbecue - because of their high fat content. The chips. about 33 percent fat, have the energy the piglets need to pack on pounds. Hospital switches babies CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) - The University of Virginia Medical Center assigns newborn babies and their mothers identical numbered bracelets immediately after birth. Something went seri ously wrong three years ago, when two girls went home with the wrong mot!lers. Unit.~rsity police hclievc a crime was commi tted. hut they would not say Friday whether they had a suspect or motive for the switch. "Our concern is to not do anyth&ng that would jeopardize the inve stigation :· hospital spokes... oman Marguerite Beck said . The switch was revealed after Paula Johnson had genet ic tests done on the girl she has loved and raised since bringin g her home from the hmpi1al in 1995. Ms . Johnson declined to say why she sought the testin g. " It's a good way of dealing with e.cess food items. with some people trying things like cookies, bakery items and even pretzels," said Ron Borton of Ohio State's Agricultural Technical Institute. Corn-based feeds arc the traditional means of fattening hogs, but com can be ••pensive. For the experiment. Shearer's Potato Chips of Brewster, Ohio, donated chips deemed too dark, too broken or beyond their expiration date. Within a week of being weaned at 3 weeks of age, the piglets were snacking. Some were placed on a 12.5 percent potato chip diet, while others went were at 25 percent. The research showed pigs on the 25 percent potato chip diet ate Jess because of high salt and fat content. That increased feed efficiency, hut it also meant the pigs took up to two weeks longer to get ready for market. A group of faculty and staff tasters reported no sign of chip Oavor in the meat.

In the early years the attendance averaged about I ,000 per year but by 1939 the one day event brought out 2,000 people . Unlike many church sponsored homecomings, the Poplar Ridge homecoming sometimes included celebrities, Congressmen, judges, and even singing groups better known in the secular culture. The organi zers of most of the early homecomings appeared to have -been Warren Harding and members of the Lemley family. The day began with Sunday School at 9:30a.m . That was followed by hal f nf the program. Basket dinner on the grounds would he enjoyed at 12 and then the other half of the program was brought forward. Perry Ralph. Civil War veteran, was almost _always included on the program. He would recount his many adventures during the war. Old time fiddlers Sam Bing, Hiram Grover, Sherman Rose, Corby James, and Denny Lane were also standard bearers in the early years. The speaker for the first twn homecomings was Judge H.C. Johnston. Congressman Tom Jer.~­ ins gave the address for many of •he years from 1928 to 1941. Most of the homecoming programs began with the welcome and the singing of "America." A typical program included 35 to 40 recitations. some 15 songs sung by the audience or by young members of the church. several speeches or playlets and singing by a special invited group. Some of the groups that played the Poplar Ridge Homecoming were the Hood Brothers in 1929. the Skidmore Brothers in 1933, Grandpa Jones and his Grandchildren in 1935 and Cap, Andy. and Flip in 1940. The li!lter three groups at the time of the appearance at Poplar Ridge were singing on the radio, mostly on WCHS radio in Charleston, W.Va. One of the largest crowds was in 1932 when the program consisted of music by the very large Men's Bible Class of the Grace Methodist Over their beds the green grasses Church.

Network execs know it, and they dream of launching the next "Seinfeld" or "Drew Carey." Producers . know it, and they dream of signing ·-;the next Seinfeld or Drew Carey. 'Stand-up comics know it, and they ·dream of being the next Seinfeld or ·-Drew Carey. Viewers may suspect it's not quite that simple. But what do they know? - So the long and winding road to _TV stardom takes a looping detour · through Montreal each summer, where Just for Laughs. billed as the largest comedy festival in the worl(\, is open for funny business. Phoning from the festival, which ended last Sunday, Don Rickles described the dlill: "You take young, struggling comedians and put 'em in a showca.o;e, and agentl and television .people come and see them, and all of .a sudden they've got a hit series and they go from $5 to 20 million. And ·then I run alongside their car trying to get their picture." Again. it's not quite that simplethough who would dare argue with Mr. Rickles? And. granted, Just for · Laughs did play a key role in fulfilling the sitcom destinies of lim Allen. ·Brett Butler and that chap Jerry Seinfeld . Someone scoring with a stand-up act may go on to lay goose eggs in the series it inspires. Consider Just for Laughs alums like Lenny Clarke• ·.: whose "Lenny·: · tasted just a few . :-. months during the 1990-91 season. . · -and John Mendoza, who Hopped with -: "The Second Half" in 1993-94. · And of course there's Rickles. one of the most enduring headliners as stand-up, who over the years has bombed in at least three sitcoms. "It's always been hard to find writers for me in a sitcom." he a l!s Are Here! Fs With "Everybody Loves Ray mond" heading into its third season • he agreed thai Just for Laughs led to his successful CBS sitcom. "It put me out there for people to see." Even so. when Romano slllrted in the early 1980s, TV wasn't a comedian's focus. "Become a stand-up, somebody sees you, you get a development deal - that wasn't the rule. For the first 10 years, I wa.1 just concerned with stand-up. Then I saw TV wa.1 the next stop." And maybe the stop after that. John Jienson. a former stand-up already nush with a TV series. admitted he was appearing at the festival "to see what's out there in the marketplace . "I'm coming up towards that crossroads where you start looking for that next thing." noted the host of E! Entenainment's "Talk Soup"''and this might be the opportunity to find it." For Gilbert Gottfried. hardly a newcomer to the comedy business show no one saw," got a guest shot yet never a star in a series, hope on the short-lived sitcom "Boston Common," and did a pilot no one springs eternal. · "I want to be the next 'Ellen,"' he picked up. said. rea.o;oning. " I'm also sexually attracted to women. I figure maybe they can build a whole series around that for me." If they ever build a whole series around newcomer Zach Galifianakis. he'll need those new wide-screen TV s for his last name. A native of Nonh Carolina. Galifianakis moved to Manhattan six years ago to study acting. Then he tried stand-up. (As an example of his act, he listed a few things you would ·never hear uttered at his bachelor pad: JAMES MARSDEN "Yummy! Fresh milk! " ... "Who OlSi.JRBiNG BEHAVIOR AND dog-eared my Bible?" ...

Loveless· tour dates come after an extended rest. Last year. when ticket sales for country artists faltered some in large venues, she told her band it was time to take a little time off to reassess her career options. " I knew I stood the chance of losing some of my band members," she says in a recent interview. "But every one of them wanis to come back. and they told me they were so happy I did it.

The past Country Music Association and Academy of Country Music female vocalist of the year is married to her producer, Emory Gordy Jr. The couple splits time between a small home in Georgia and a place in Nashville. "This is where I commute to." she says in Nashville. "This is where the bus drops me off. .. Of late. Loveless has been contributing her vocals to other people's projects. including the new record by Gill, due out in August. and a project for a new record on Sony in which contemporary country artists reoch back into the catalogs of classic country si ngers for traditional material.

I found myself wishing "The Negotiator" had been written as a more intimate stage play. Failing that, TWish semeone could have negotiated about a half-bour off the two hours and 20 minutes of running time, and streamlined the film. At times, the police corruption behind the incident seems overly simplistic; at other times. it's unduly complicated. And I also found Gray's staging of some of the action including the finale :__ somewhat confusing. · All that said, I still enjoyed myself in "The Negotiator." thanks to the screen chemistry of Jackson and Spacey. Though too many of the supporting players try to compete by offering more ham than you'll find on a Dagwood sandwich, at least two are commendable: the lat.e J.T. Walsh as a possibly corrupt internal affairs officer and an amusing Paul Giamalli as a slimy informant who becomes inadvennntly caught up as a hostage.

Romano agreed that past appearances at Montreal's Just for Laughs summer comedy festival contributed to his TV success. (API me?" Nobody can handle a hostage situation as skillfully as Chicago cop Danny Roman (Samuel L. Jackson). In the prologue to "The Negotiator," we see him bmvely save a linle girl from shotgun-wielding psycho. But what happens when Roman. himself. takes hostages? That's the clever set-up for F. Gary Gray's new film. loosely based on a recent St. Louis. Mo.. hostage situation. As in the actual ca.o;e, Roman is a cop who believes he's being framed to take the fall for corrupt police officers. As Roman sees it, his only solution is to take hostages at police head- · quaners. and then bargain for time to get his story before the public. And because he's an expen in hostage situations. he demands that his own negotiator be another pro - Officer Chris Sabian (Kevin Spacey) from a cross-town precinct. Thus, "The Negotiator" becomes a two-actor showcase, a.1the vol;nile, charismatic Jackson and the quietly sly and wiuy Spacey go toe-to-toe. And when that happens. "The Negotiator" crackles with excitement. Unfortunately. the writers and director F.

We are looking forward to another successful sale on August 7. 1998. Sale Time will be at 9:00A.M. with complimentary coffee and doughnuts served prior to the livestock sale. By JENNIFER L BYRNES GALLIPOLIS - Have you scouted the alfalfa lately? If so, you have probably noticed evidence of potato 'lealboppcr.>. Blowing up from the gulf in the spring, these 1/8 inch long green leafhoppers move quickly and are difficult to see. Traditionally showing up by the second cutting and ~ausing a problem through the sea. son, potato leafhopper damage is . characterized by wedge-shaped yel. lowing of alfalfa leaf tips. This is also · known \IS "hopperbum" and can be confused with boron deficiency. To distinguish between the two, remem· her that hopperbum appears more · commonly on the older leaves, while lliiron deficiency symptoms appear on the younger leaves. · Potato le.afboppers do not just feed on the alfalfa, they also excrete a toxin that stunts the growth of the crop. Once the hoppcrbum is noticeable, stunting has already occurred. The potential damaging effects of the leatbopper depeads' on the alfalfa stand vigor and the degree of environmental stress. · Net sweeps show that some fields have reached the economic threshold. This is the point at which it is cheaper to treat the field than it is to suffer the crop loss. Treatment' is wammted when the number of adult and nymph stage leafhoppers collected in 10 net sweeps exceed the height of the alfalfa. For example. if you made :!0 net sweeps through the ·field and :trapped more than 8 leafhopper.> on :8-inch-high alfalfa, a rescue treat·tflent should be considered. Most of :die time, producers with alfalfa want ·to avoid chemical treatment due to the cost, labor 1111d time.

There is good reason for that high figure. Having a business in your home can provide flexible womng hours and give you the luxury of being your own boss. But. nothing is perfect, and owning a business that you run from you home also has many disadvantages. Operating a business from your home must be a family decision since the entire family is affected. Space used now for family activities may be taken over by the business. Personal phone calls may need to be shonencd if the family phone is also the business phone. If customers will be coming to your house, extra effon will be needed to keep at least one room presentable at all times. Family members must realize · that family activities may take a back seat to business activities, including last minute scheduling to fit a customer's sched- ulc. Calls and visits from customen can be expected at all hours of the day or night. including mealtimes and weekends. Wbile there arc drawbacks to owning a business in your home. it can also bind the family together. In fact, recent researi:h shows that the divorce rate in families with a homebased business is lower than the norm (which is a staggering I in two marriages ending in divorce). The business can provide a focal point to involve the entire family and can lead to increased communication and understanding. It can also help ramiJYlnembers learn new skills such a~ answering the phone properly. entertaining customen and taking orders. Managing a business at home provides an opponunity for more flexible work houn, but it also requires more discipline than working outside the home. It is easy to delay getting statted or allow the dis· tractions of your home to interfere with business activities. If you have trouble concentrating, perhaps setting standard working hours for yourself or shutting yourself off from those distractions (getting away from the TV. the kids. or the housework) can help. While business activities are imponant, so is your commitment to . your family. Working at home allows you to schedule business houn around your family's schedule. It means that someone will be home when the children arc not in schooL It also can keep you from losing a day's wages from an outside job due to the hassle and expense of finding a last minute babysitter. There arc some real financial benefits associated with operating a business from your home. Usually, a home-based business doesn't add much to the overhead of operating the home, cenainly not as much as rent· ing an out~ide facility and paying for its upkeep. Expenses arc also less for transportation, outside meals and clothing if you don't have to leave the home. At the same time, a home· ba.o;cd business can lead to a feeling of isolation if yo~ don't get away occasionally. Running a home-based business may involve strangers visiting your home. This factor should be considered carefully, and it cenainly is a good reason to carry adequate insurance. Decide which personal items might be attractive to a thief and keep these from view. Take steps to prolecl your person as well. Running a business from your home can be very worthwhile. but it requires careful planning and input from the entire family: .Carefully consider whether the sacrifices are outweighed by the benelits. If the advantages outnumber the disadvantages. owning a home-based business may be for you and your family Rebecca Collins is Gallia County's extension agent in family and consumer sciences.

How can you avoid becoming overwhelmed with information? Consider hiring an investment professional to help you meet your financial goals. Just as you rely on a doctor for advice on your physical health or an attorney to help keep your legal documents m order, an investment professional can draw upon Smith his or her knowledge and experience to provide a deeper level of expertise about investing and the markets. He or she can give you the kind of guidance you will need to make informed investment decisions. Although you may feel that using an investment professional is the right choice for you, you may be unsure of how to go about finding one. When looking for .an investment professional, you should look for someone you have confidence·in and trust. This person should be able to help you clearly define your goals, should understand your needs and work within the level of risk you are willing to take. The right candidate also should be someone who will moni· tor your investments and keep your program on tn•ck, as well as keep you apprised nf new opportunities. Finding that perfectly suitable person can bo. very rewarding .

At this point. leafhopper activity is sometimes above economic threshold from the beginning of the regrowth stage. Whenever possible. cut alfalfa when you know you have the time to cut the entire fteld. If the harvest is broken up with large time gaps. the leafhoppers will leave the cut portion, and hide out and feed in the uncut portion. This will increase Slllnting in uncut areas during the time gap because there are more leafhoppers in a smaller space. After harvest, leatboppcr activity will decrease for about I week. and chen the levels will rise quickly to economic threshold. If treatment of regniWth is considered. allow the stands to grow to a height of 4-8 inches before treatment. This allows the product to have more of a residual effect.

Homeowners arc having problems with· night roosting of vast noch of starlings. As cooler and damper nights arrive, birds need to find roosts that will provide an area out of the rain and wind. The heavy foliage growth of an improperly pruned tree provides an ideal dense cover of leaves for starling roosting. Thin out the heavy canopy of leaves by removing extra branching sprouting from prior year.,- pruning. This will allow more air and rainfall to penelmte the roosting area. The simple action of spraying water onto the roosting starlings in your trees just before dusk may discourage the starling nock from roosting overnight. Noise cannons would not be advisable within village limits, however there· are distress call tapes available through the Ohio Dept. of Wildlife, Doug Andrews (614) 4695681 . Distress tapes need to be played just before dusk to prevent the starlings from roosting nearby. Are your tree.< and shrub leaves turning yellow? Check the stems and underside of leaves for scale insects. Euonymus. tulip tree. magnolia. lilacs and yews are extremely susceptible to scale insects. Scale insects are so named because they carry their own shell-like home on their back through their adult lives. There are both soft and hard shelled scale insects. Hard shelled scale do not die easily. Chemicals have difficulty penetrating the shell-like outer structure. Horticultural oils (refined oils) sprayed in the fall and early spring while the plants are dormant seem to be quite effec- · tive. Young scale insects called, crawlers are emerging from underneath the mother scale's protective shell. This is a stage in the scale) life that contact chemicals like carbaryl, diazinon. dursban. and orthene are effective killers. Read and follow label instructions on all chemicals before spraying. If the infestation is small, prune out the infected part of the tree or shrub then bum the dis· eased branch. Are you having problems with perennial weeds in your field,, madways or gardens? Johnson grass. hemp dogbane, Canadian thistle. ironweed and milkweed should be brush hogged as soon as possible. When the new growth emergences anti is 6-12 inches tall apply a registered pesticide like gypsophate (Round-Up) to the leaves and green stems. The active ingredient translocales over a seven to ten day time interval throughout the plant. particularly into the storage roots. Remember to follow label instructions. Watch out for wet weather within two hours of application .

In fact most of the world's most precious and rare woods are available only in veneer form. Wood ,veneer is generally sliced about one-twenty-eighth-inch thick, although it's available in one-six· teenth. one-fortieth, and one-sixty· four-inch thicknesses, too. Veneering requires no special skills or expensive equipment and only a few basic hand tools are needed. These are: a veneer saw, utility knife, 2-inch· wide veneer roller, glue brush, 4-inclt shoo-nap paint roller, glue, thinner, veneer tape, push pins, combination square and a steel rule straightedge. Any nat surface: takes veneer eas· ily which is why a project like a Par· sons table with its squan: legs and sharp come~ makes it ideal for learning the craft. Start by'cutting the veneer for the inside leg surfaces where your early mistakes will show the least - using a veneer saw and a steel rule straightedge. Always cut veneer slightly ove~ized so you can positibn it exactly and finish trim it for a perfect fit. Next. apply veneer glue or contact cement to the veneer and to the inside leg surface with a 2 112-inch-wide brush or a short-nap paint roller.

We don't know whether to use asphalt or fibergla.1s shingles. What is your opinion? A: Either type of shingle will work for you. Your choice depends on ,aesthetics. availability and your budget. Genemlly, the more expensive shin· gles come with a longer warranty. some of which can reach 20-25 year.;. Many people. even roofe~. con· fuse fiberglass and asphalt shingles. Fiberglass shingles are made with asphalt and should be referred to as fiberglass-asphalt shingles. An a.~phalt shingle consists of felt base mat made from rags. and paper wood pulp. The mat is saturated and coated wiih asphall then surfaced with mineral aggregates. Fiberglass· a.~phalt shingles have a gla1s fiber mal coated with asphall and surfaced with mineral aggregates. 1l1e difference between organic and fiberglass-based shingles is more of a concern to the roofer than the homeowner.Fiberglass-based shin· gles were developed because roofe~ found that asphalt shingles softened during hot weather installations. and were easily damaged. Fiberglass shingles are coated. not saturated. with a.~phalt and are not ea.1ily dam· aged during hot weathe~ However, in the northern United States, organic mat shingles are often used. Fibergla.~s shingles are difficult to work in very cold weather because they become brittle and can crack if nexed. Fiberglass shingles have a better lire rating than organic shingles. Nevertheless, the latter is considered acceptable. Q; I've noticed small holes and insects in some of the beams in my 150-year-old frame house. How can I tell if these are carpenter ants or ter. mites. and how can I get rid of them·> A: Damage from carpenter ants is often mistaken for termite infestation. However, ants tunnel only to construct nesting places. They remove excavated wood to the outside of their nests and keep the passageways clear. Termite galleries, on the other hand. are packed with sawdustlike material whidt is actually a woody excretion . This difference in the appearance of infested areas is a pos· lltve means of identifying which pest is at work. Carpenter ants may be seen enterin~ a~ leaving wood. They vary ~tdely m stze but a common variety ts app~xunately one-half-inch long. and e1ther all black or mixed with brown. All members of the colony are fully formed except the larvae. which are white and resemble grubs. Small, isolated colonies can be eradicated by injecting pesticide dust into the galleries or into holes drilled at intervals along infested timber. For best resulls. hire a licensed professional exterminator. Q: I'm replacing some bad sections of copper water pipe, Can I use PVC pipe for the repairs? A: Plastic water pipe can be joined to steel and copper pipe by means of plastic threaded adapters. Both male and female plastic adapte~ are avail· able. One end of the pla.~tic adapter ts glued to the plastic pipe and the other threaded into a fitting or onto a p1pe. When joining plastic . water pipe to existing metal piping. wrap the male threads with pla.1tic pipe JOtnt sealant tape. Because plastic female adapters can expand when threaded onto male threads, a better choice is to use a plastic male adapter threaded into an iron or copper female adapter or lining.

The good news is that the hot weather seems to be doing its job and the rate of spread and amount of active blue mold has not been nearly as strong this past week.
