Tlmno~tlnel Steff RIO GRANDE - For decades, it's been designated officially and unofficially by many names, but the local office for the state agency where Ohioans go to seek a job or to collect benefits when out of work is now the One-Stop Employment and Training Center. Known as the Ohio Bureau of Employment Services ~ince 1968, the new name reflects the agency's changing mission in putting people to work, OBES Administrator .O.ebra R. Bowland explained. · "One stop employment and training ·ceqters best describe how and what we provide to customers in the new workforce of the coming century," Bowland said. "It also underscores our close working relationships with most community organizations that can help people seeking jobs, making career changes, establishing new businesses, or coping with unemployment." .News Watch · Legislator wants federal prison built in southern Ohio .

According to' published reports, Householder has asked the ~!hens County Commission·· e!S for a list of sites in the county where the pFison might be local· ed.

It would pay employees at · federal pay scales of between $35,000 and $45,000 a year, Householder said.

'rlie 1 Oh! Christmas tree Seasonal purchase involves weighty decisions By BRIAN J. REED Times-Sentinel Stan POMEROY- Real tree or artificial? "Charlie Brown Special" or $100 premium tree? Long-needled pine or short-needled fir? · The decisions required .-- -------,--.,_;__ wheri choosing a Christmas tree are almost as weighty as what to buy dad for Christmas. Now that Thanksgiving is behind us, the sale of Christ· mas trees will begin. to boom, and Christmas tree experts have begun handing out advice. IIEoU Ofl AlmFICIAL? Artificial tree owners often cite convenience as a reason for using them. The idea of dragging the family to a tree farm and lugging a pine tree home is not appealing, while others find the yearI y trek to . the tree farm to be a Christmas tradition that helps instill the Christmas spirit. Many owners of artificial trees like the uniform, "per· feet" look of an artificial tree, which when properly assem· Trw Fann on bled, lack the bare spots, Derwtn Is one of Melg1 COunt:y'a crooked trunks and other mat trH autlata.

"What could be more simple or more natural," says Frank Antenucci, prosident of the Ohio Christmas Tree Association. "Buying a real tree is def· initely an environmentally sound choice." He takes issue with people who still believe that artificial trees are a bet· ter environmental choice. •Artificial trees are made of plastic and aluminum. They will never break down or decompose when they are disposed," he said. ' On the average, the life of an artificial tree is just six years. Then it is tossed into the landfill where it will lie in a composed state forever." WHICH VARIETY? For the best needle retention on a Christmas tree, it's h3rd to beat a Scotch pin, according to Randy Heiligmann, forestry specialist at Ohio State Uni· versity. Once cut, this tree usually holds its needles longer than any other species. If you want shorter, softer needles, firs and Douglas fir hold their needles very well. If properly cared for, most Christmas tree varieties can last up to four weeks with little needle loss, Heiligmann said. "A freshly-cut tree, properly. cared for, will do fine from Thanksgiving through Christmas," he said. There are four ways to tell if a tree is fresh : •Bend a needle between thumb and forefinger. A tree is usually fresh when the needle bends but does not break. •Left 'the tree a few inches and bump the stump of the tree on the ground. If many green needles fall off, the tree is not fresh. Don't worry if brown nee· dies fall; these are old needles from the interior of the tree that arc naturally shed. •Feel the stump. If it's moist and sappy, the tree is fresh. If it feels dry, look for another tree. •Cut the tree yourself from a tree farm, if possible. If you buy a cut tree, Continued on page A8 ~L~o5c~A~L~~~~!==- c:hrllat~nae .Businesses.vie for financial windfall from hunting season ·il'n~:le~~~=?t.n POMEROY - Ohio's NO DEALERS IPEI 111.-fll. 1·1 IIli-I Ifill ~1111:1 Good Morning The OBES office setving Gallia, Meigs and Jackson offerings, Bowland explained.

Forget world leaders: Gls are the real heroes . ay JOHN OMICINSKI Gannett News Service WASHINGTON ~ U.S. history professors say Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler was the "most influential person'' of the 20th century. The good profs chose the evil little Austrian in response to a survey by the Siena College Research Institute. In second place was Hitler"s iotalitar· ian brother, Soviet boss Joseph Stalin, who teamed with Hitler until betrayed. While the Siena survey certainly was a worthwhile and instructive cxcr· cise. the academics' responses were appropriately unimaginative and pedantic. Yes. Hitler spread death and destruction to all corners of the world. He also taught the century's political psychopaths how to rule by intim· idation and fear. His attack on the Soviet Union emboldened the Japanese .to lctloosc the dogs.of war in the Pacific. No doubt about that. Without Hitler there would have been no World War II. Absolutely right. But if we hadn't had such mushy world leaders atthc time. Hitler would· ' n't have lasted two years. Hitler 's rise and success was testimony more to the poor quality of the world's timid and selfish leadership lhan 'to his own brilliance. The Munich goose-stepper should have been slopped in his tracks by the late 1930s. Every· one in their righl minds could sec Lhat he was a L:cnifiahlc maniac: Pcorlc with his delusions spend·thcir entire lives in mental hospitals. The world's pitiful governments kowtowed to Hitler. giving away entire states hoping to satisfy his insatiable hunger. But who fmally stopped him? Who saved the world from the Hillers and the Tojos. from the KGBs and the Red Chinese massed auackcrs'' That is the real "person of the century." And that person is the American Gl. He and she arc the real Century 's Heroes. Hitler and Tojo didn'tjusl fade away ; they were brought to their knees largely through the wor!i,of the courageous and selfless Gls, Just imagine giving up four or five years of your life to load hombs on airplanes or dri· vc bulldozers to make airstrips on coral atolls. The Gls got stancd early. U.S. doughboys broke open World War I by smashing through the Kaiser's Huns when the Brits and French proved absolutely incapable of victory. The American E•peditionary Force had to get over there in a hurry before the tired Europeans commiucd total suicide. They made njust in the nick of time . Then, in World War II, those reluctant warriors arose again from jobs. fam-. ilics, schools and farms, and from the dcsol~tion of-the Depression. The Gls did most of the diny work for the world in the filthy, disease· ridden jungles of the Pacific to defeat the troops of Japan's Rising Sun. When World War II was over. the Gls' leaders served them badly again, being naive enough to give away hard-won Eastern Europe to the Soviets while failing to see the Red threat in Korea. Five years after World War II. the Gls were up to their knees in the blizzards and mud of Korea. fighting off night attacks by the Red Chinese. Against long odds. they repelled the North Korean-Chinese auack. When they got stuck in the swamps of the Vietnam connict because of fools like Robert McNamara and Lyndon Johnson. they did their hcstto light and cope with stupid orders. And from 1948 to 1989, the Gls stood tall in remote comers of the world. fighting a kind of twilight war lO contain C!>mmunism where. often, the biggest enemy was boredom. In many cases. the Gls won despite poor generals. admirals. indifferent sccrtlarics, arrogant presidents. · There were fine exceptions among their officers: John "Blackjack" Per· shing. Omar Bradley. Macthcw Ridgway. Chester Nimitz. Dwight Eisenhower, Hyman Rickover. and. perhaps the best of all. George Marshall . The Gls were a remarkable group. The sci ness citizen-warriors- in the hcsl Jcm<x:mtic tradition that comes down to us from the first democratic armies of the spear-carrying Greeksput aside the best years of their lives (and some their entire lives) to stop the madmen from taking over. And. in all likelihood, we shall not sec their like again. Something has been lost since the era of the Gl hero ended in the 1970s and the United States went to an all -volunteer armed forces.

This is a true story: several years ago a man in New York City lost his job. his apanment and his fiance, filled with billemess and despair he dccid· cd to end his life. He went to the Empire State Building, took the elevator all the way up and then climbed the stairs to the top as it was dark and there was no one there. He decided to jump _off. A man in a building across from him saw him and realized what he was going to do; he ran across to the Emptrc State Butld· ing and went all the way to the top. Just.as he gott_o the top. the other man jumped into the void. A great gust of wtnd blew htm back. The other man grabbed him and asked him why. He told hrm he had lost everythmg.

But despite such efforts to bring people together, residents concede Akron is not a perfect model of race relations.

"It's hard to Jose any time," said Manchester coach Jim France. "If that would have been a three-quarter game. it would have been hard to accept. Bu~ those things happen. We gave it our best shot. but things didn't· work out for us." Newell completed 12-of-21 pass· es for 127 yards with two interceptions. while Manchester's Adamson was 19-of-37 passing for 229 yards with three interceptions.

Then Adamson kept on a bootleg right and scored untouched from I 0 yards and Mick tied it with the kick. Both kickers missed field goals in the third overtime, Mick shanking an I 8-yard attempt that' would have won the game.

"You have to play with the cards you arc <tea It," Gullikson said. "You can't throw the cards away." "We were dealt a particular hand this weekend. The Swedish team was a better ieam. Hopefully the ne~t time we play them. we ca~ be the better team." Sweden's job was made easier when .Sampras was forced to withdraw in the third set of his match against Magnus Lnrsson Friday. The Americans were counting on Sampras· to tie the series after Jonas Bjorkman had given Sweden a I -0 lead by beating Michael Chang 7-5, 1-6.6-3.6-3. But Sampras, who had won the first set 6-3 and lost the second 7-6, linally gave up while trailing 2-1 in the third. S.ampras was taken in a wheelchair to a hospital for a scan, which revealed a pulled muscle in his left calf. The injury will require three to four weeks to heal, Sarnpras stayed in his hotel room and watched the doubles on televi- SIOO. "He can't walk or put pressure on his leg." Gullikson said. "He's in bed. with his foot up. icing it every two hours. He wus in severe pain last night." The Americans don't have a regular doubles team and this time Todd Martin and Jonathan Stark had the job of trying to keep the. U.S. team alive in the series. But they lost 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 to Bjorktnan and Nicklas Kulti, a pair that often plays 1ogether.

'They've played summer ball. We'll be much better defensively than in the last two years." The Raiders promise to show, at least in the elll'ly . stages, a three-guard, open-post offense. Seniors Bryan Drumm~md and Nick Rocchi (S.7 pts./game in 199697), Jumors Jermain Jackson (8.7 pts./game) and Joey James (team-best IS .8 pts./game and 9.4 rebounds/game) and senior Mat Toler. whose football injury in 1996 kept him off the court last year, are the likely starting candidates. · Wolfe also has some players that earned their stripes last year as well as a few that are returning to the court · af\er absences of varying lengths.

Both losses were by less than a touchdown, and both could have easily been victories. After all, Michigan's offense only · scored one touchdown, and its defensive game was up more total yards than the Buckeyes'. Unfortunately, turnovers will kill you. It's .like baseball, I just hate thole base on balls. I swear, every time a pitcher walks someone they &<:OrC. In football, every turnover comes back to haunt you. In biJ games, they beQlme exponentially magnif\Cd. I felt that the Buckeyes losllhe pme when they fumbled in the lint half. They were moving the ball and in field goal range. If the Buckeyes scored lint, the game could have been different. Up to that point, Michigan's first three poasessions were three and out. Naturally, that's only speculation on my behalf. Except for the turnovers, the Bncks more than held their own. · I believe Michigan is also happy to be playing Washington State in me Rose BOwl instead of UCLA. The Bruins are the ohe team no one wants to meet in a bowl game. . The Wolverines should win the national championship on New Year's Day. That's why Division I needs a legitimate playoff system. I think UCLA is the b'est team in the country right now, but losing IWO early gimes by close soores eliminates them from contention. It's that mythical nationa! championship that still bothers me. Flo~da Slate loses by three in the swamp and somehow they fall from contenuon. Tennessee loses an i:arly game in the swamp and they must rely on upsets and luck to have a chance at the tille. In all likelihood, the Buckeyes should be given a chance. After all, their losses are as much a result of their schedule as their opponents'. Both the Penn Slate and. Michigan games could have been different had they been played in Columbus. Any. playoff system should include top 161eams, because that would be the fairest way to handle the inevitable early season losses and road defeats. It will be nice, however, to have a Big Ten team win the national championsh1p for a change. That hasn't happened since Ohio State did in 19681 It's been a long time coming for Big Ten football fans. · 1 Baseball has also stolen the sports headlines in the past few weeks. The expansion draft was confusing, and there is a great deal of anxiety over the breakup of the Florida Marlins. It was a team put together to win a championship. It succeeded in its tuk; however, it's too expensive to maintain. I can see the want ads: Hurry! Great deals on superstaJS! A gre~t Christmas present to any rich owner who desires a championship. If you like, you can even purchase the team. Call Wayne now! The new ownership will soon disoover that fans won't come a~d see the Marlins next year because of the fire sale now in progress. ' The difficulty is that fans identify !cains with their players and vice versa. Marlins owner Wayne .Huizenga would have been better off had he first developed his fan base before buying a team. How can identify with a team that won't be there next year1 Look for even more empty sea~ in Florida next season. Someone once asked me if I would like the Pacers to acquire Jordan and Pippen. They were surprised when I emphatically rejected the notion. The point is thatllike Reggie Miller, Dale Davis and Rik Smits. I watched Pac· ers general manager Donny Walsh as he drafted \hem. I have followed them , for their entire careers. For me, they are the Pacers. I want them 10 win a championship, not the Bulls in Pacers· clothing. That's the lesson Huizenga didp't learn. Consequently, he '!'ill sell his franchise and players. The negative results go beyond Florida. The Minnesota Tw;ns fans face the prospect of losing,their team to an owner in Nonh Carolina who can afford 10 play both the new stadium and free agent roulette whcrets. I hope this owner hils p1id particular attention to the NHL franchise which has relocated in his state. They are giving away a new truck at each bome game in an attempt to get fans to the arena. Maybe the Tennessee Oilers should try this approach? In spite of what people may think, free agency hasn't ruined sports. In actuality, players don't change teams that much more often than before the advent of the system. In today's world, the players jusi happen to make that . decision, rather than the owners. For your information, Wayne, it's the salaries and the lack of fan suppon · that are hurting the game. S..0 WIIIOII, Ph.D. II 1ft 1N0018te pt'(Qaaor 01 hletory lithe UIIIWnlty of Rto G..- .

Aaron died in 1778 and eight year old Phin.eas went to live with his uncle Dame! Ma~thews . Dante! s wtfe was none other than Hulda Putnam, t~ SISter of Rufus Putnam of the OhiO Company which settled Marietta. ·. . From 1778 to 1784 Phmeas Manhews lived with his uncle Daniel. In 1784 Phineas became a bonded apprentice to ·samuel . Cheever of Brookfield, Mass. It was tn the spnng of 1793 that Ph1neas emigrated. to Ohi~ with some other settlers who had purchased land from the Ohio Company. . Phineas arrived at Marietta durmg a lime when the Indtan wars were ragmg. Settlers at Manella were restricted to the blockade. St~ce Phmeas had no skt!l therl needed by these seniors, he went back to Massachus~tts. . . . In the spnng of 1795 Phmeas m company wtth Col. )srael Putnam, Dr. Wtlham Putnam. and George P. Putnam set out agam for Manetta, thiS lime Phmeas was dnvtng a wagon pulled by two o<en. It look lhts group etght weeks to make the 800 mtle tnp. . In due course Phmcas was made a tax collector over Washmgton County. At that time Gallia, Meigs, and Athens Counties did not exist. All the land that is now a pan of those counties was in Washington County. Matthews also served as a land agent for persons from New England who owned Ohio Company land but whose only ·interest in the land was to sell it at a profit, not live on it. . • It was on Feb. 27, 1799 that Phmeas purchased 200 acres of land at ·Cheshire(then called Eight Mile Island) for $1000. The seller was John Lawrence of New York. On this property Mauhews built a log cabm whtch served as hiS home for many years. In 1803 Phineas took a , wife. Mary Russell, who~ father had ,fougllt i~ the Revol~tionary War wtth the Vugmta Conttnental Lme. . . · The pau had seven chtldren(Charles, Esther, Moses, Nancy. Aaron. Elisha and Thonias). On June 4.. 1815. Mary Russell Matthews dted. On Aug. 8, 1815,. Phineas married Abigail Nobles. There were seven .chtldren born 10 Lhts marnage: ·Euntta, Mary. Ehza. Phtncas, Nobles, Marion, and Loutsa. Abigail Nobles Matthews died on July 12, 1836. At the age of 68 Phineas took his !hind wife Chi~· M. Sisson Ca.<e. Titete were two chitdrcn born to this union. The first one had the very appropriate name of Increase Mlilthews . . The second child born of this marriage was known as Sarah Abigail. ~n Phineas died, his funeral was held in the Tprkey Run School. It was a big funeral with Masons being present from all over southern Ohio. It was not untill916 that a stone be lining im early pioneer was placed over the grave of Phineas Matthews and his three wives. It was in the fall of that year that about60persons gathered in the tiny Bmg Cemetery to dedicate the memorial (o these four pioneers. The main speaker was Rio Grande College professor Dr. J.M. Davis. r The only child of Pliineas who was present was Louisa, then Louisa Lucas. li was Louisas daughter Mrs. Augusta Lucas Bing who had a sig· nificant pan in organizing the day's activities and in panicipating in t~e same.

Pomeroy • Middleport • Galllpolla, OH • Point Pl1111nt, WV 111e Cayman Islands was the last stop when my granddaughter Tandy Aint and I were on our recent Carribean cruise with the Shrincrs. , These islands have been a dependency· of Great Britain in the West Indies since the British claimed them again in 1962. The British originally had taken possession of the islands in 1670. -butlost them to pirates. In 1713. the islands fell into the hands of pirates of which Sir Henry Morgan was one. and people began to settle the islands in 17 34. In 1788 a convoy of 10 English merchant ships sank as a result of a storm. hut the people on board were saved hy natives of the islands who nskcd their lives m small row boats to rescue those in the water. Because of that. King George Ill said there would never be any mx as long as England ruled the land. That holds true today - residents arc exempt from incnmc. property and inhcri tancc tuxes . There is no welfare on the islands. The three 1slands lie south of Cuha in the heart of the Caribbean. There arc : Grand Caymao. Little Cayman and Cayman Brae. We visited Grand Cayman where the capital is George Town . The Grand Cayman is a beautiful lslimd, and very expensive. Our dolI'll' is worth only eighty cents to their d911ar. Of course. I was interested in tqeir jewelry so I sought out the stores. ' But it did not take much effort to find the jewelry stores-they were eferywherc. I priced a half caret diamond at $4.200. This is much more than what I can sell one for, and the one I looked at even had an imperfe-ction in it-it had a black spot on the edge. But. the tourists were buying their jewelry like crazy. I am tejltpled to open up a store there, where I can make more money. · . Everything was expensive. Tandy a~d I bought a small milkshakc and el)Ch one cost $5-and they weren't nearly as good as the ones I buy at our local Shake .Shoppe for $1.25. A sandwich cost $7 . We also visited many of their retail S\Orcs where I compared price~ of several items. Rolcx watches wcrc anywhere from $5,000 . to $15.000. and. as I said earlier. dia· monds were at least double or triple the price I can charge. There .was one salvation to the high costs-no taxes. I talked >orne time with the owner of one jewelry store. He showed me some of his profits on jewelry sales and it was unbclicvable' Tandy and I also visited a large Photograph of the cruise ship that the author sailed on with his granddaughter. herb swrc and she recogmzcd some of the same herbs thnr my daughter Nancy sells al her slnrc on COurt Street. Tandy knew a lot about these herbs because she sometimes works for Nancy. We talked to the people in there for a while and they told us when people get sick they buy herbs to heal themselves before they even think of >ccing a doctor. Herbs are very popular and seem to be very healthful. Nancy's business has increased since she added herbs to her store it has tripled. She now has people selling herbs for her. These people in the store at Grand Cayman wanted us to have dinner with them, but we had to go back to the boat. The highlight of our outing-was a trip on a submarine. Gordon Roth, who was also on the cruise, took a tour with us ·to the bottom of the ocean. We saw fish of all •hapes and sizes, and the largest turtles in the world. Tourism and -international banking form the backbone of the economy, but fishing. shipbuilding, turtle raising. and crop fanning are locally important. Two of the leading exports are tunic shells. and green tunics. These green turtles are named for the color of their fat-the animals arc br~wn - ovcroll. They arc the fastest swtmming turtle and can rc<i<;h speeds of 20 mph . Adults may reach a shell length of more than three feet and have a body weight of 400 pounds. Only lcmalcs ever leave the sea, and that is when it is time for her to lay her eggs at night in the warm sand on the hcachcs. The Cayman ISlands also have turtle farms where they raise turtles in a protected area that keeps them away from large birds und other predators. The Cayman Islands were sighted by Christopher Columbus in 1503. He named them La.• Tortugas. which is Spanish for "the turtles" because the Spaniards oo board saw groups of turtles on the shores. Later the name was changed to "Cayman." Some say Cayman was an Indian name for lizards, and some say Cayman is the Spanish word for alligator. It seemed like a dream being able to see the fish and those huge tunles at the bottom of the ocean. The tour cost us $70. but it was wonh it .' Reefs surround the islands, and many sunken ships can be seen in crystal-clear water on the once pirate-haunted reefs. Its a beautiful place to visit. My friend, Jack Hanna, made a film about all types of animal sea life on the Cayman Islands. He called me recently and said he would be on Larry King Live next week-he asked me to watch the show. Jack is a fantastic guy. I've been to Africa several times with him and I must say those times were some of the best trips I've taken. You should watch his tcltvision shows about wild life they arc wonderful. If any of you would like to sec my world travel photos. you arc more than welcome.

Servlc• memorable female hero in the whole lexicon of sci·fi, ' horror and action films, Ripley has been terrifically played by Sigourney Weaver. It's easy to see it'll always be the defining role of her career. And Weaver knows it- which explains not only her dominance in the films, but also her increased function as a co-producer on the last two films in the series. The new "Alien" film is long on visual imagination and philosophical concepts. but a bit short on riveting suspense. After all, "Alien Resurrection" director JeanPierre Jeunet made his reputation with surreal dark fan.tasies "Delicatessen" and "The City of Lost Children," and not with tension or shock. The "Resurrection'' screenplay by Joss Whedon blends mother-oriented psychology· with demented DNA research that seems cloned from "The Island of Dr. Moreau." After several grotesque miscues, a suc~e5Sful Ripley has been cloned so she'll be able to deliver an alien queen to breed a new anny of the slimy monsterS with the body of a giant wasp, acid for blood, and rows of horrific teeth. But once the queen is extracted from Ripley's chest, things get weird on board the large medical ship, Auriga. The cloned Ripley demonstrates super-human strength, the ability to heal almost instantly, and. yes; an · acidic blood stream. · .

He sticks to his guns on "Sevens," keeping to the pop-country fonnula . thai fueled his crossover from the start. ·It's his seventh CD, and the numerical theme includes its 14 songs (two sevens, get it?). But will "Sevens" be enough to win? His last album, ~·Fresh Horses," arrived smack in the middle of the country album logjam that his popularity helped to create. As a result, it sold "only" 4 million, superstar numbers by any standard but his "Sevens" opens in fine style with his current single, the hanky-tanker "Long Neck Bottle." In a typical Garth rwist, there's George Bensonstyle scaning in the guitar solo. Next up is ''How You Ever Gonna Know," an inspirational tune about daring to "chase t'lte dream." Then comes a trio of lost-love songs. "She's Gonna Make It" and "I Don't Have to Wbndcr" detail a•. painful breakup and the ·ex-wifc.'s remarriage.

Ultimalely, the enigmatic new Ripley joins forces with a ragtag group of space black markcteers, to battle the generation of aliens. Ripley's cohorts include a couple of rough rogues (Michael Wincott and Ron Peri· man), a paraplegic mechanic (Dominique Pinon), and~!! . mysterious, wide-eyed junior officer (Winona Ryder). After the intriguing set-up, "Alien Resurrection" settles in for the standard drill- a need to defeat the aliens on a tight time schedule. (This lime, the ship's comput· . ers are powering it back to earth - they have to get rid of the horrible cargo before it lands there.) "Alien Resurrection" derives most of its power from Sigourney Weaver's physically and emotionally strong performance - and from the scary ties that seem to have developed between "mother" and her "baby." Otherwise, the new "Alien" delivers fairly standard thrills - and without much strain or stress . . And although the presence of Winona Ryder will obviously generate interest, the usually dependable actress fails to bring much clarity or power to her part. The film's production values are strong. And if you've been frustrated in the past by not being able to see much of the aliens, you 'II have a ball here because they have nearly as much screen 'lime as the easier-onthe-eyes Weaver and Ryder. · By LARRY NAGER /~,;/,~ Wf well .. . but that's for filmgoers to discover on The Cincinnati Enquirer Second in a three part series \ spe~ies as Brooks rolls a winner with "Sevens'::. case of Cuban cigars. in the oven for 20 minutes to finish baking.) · Conventional baking: Place the potatoes in the oven. reduce the heat . to 400 degrees and bake about 50 minutes.

That's the highly orig· inal premise of "Alien Resurrection," the fourth in the qh-so-popular series of sei·fi·horror films. The classy "Alien" franchise ventures ·into lhis strange but intriguing Freudian country in a chapter from the series that could be subtitled "Monster Mommie Dearest." In "Alien Resurrection," Ripley returns, thanks to cloning, some 200 years since her demise at the end of "Alien3." As you may recall, she went to her death taking with her a fetus for an alien queen. Now the new powers that be have used DNA to recreate her- and the fetus- because they once again want to breed the monstrous aliens for sonie unknown purpose. (That's always been the 01ost implausible aspect of each sequel -why would anyone want to try to control such , obviously uncontrollable anli utterly destructive . monsters? As Ripley says in this edition: "Hasn't anyone been paying attention?")

Section Musician David Byrne-let his 'Feelings' flow in new CD By REX RUTKOSKI Tarentum Valley (Pa.) News Dav id Byrne doesn 't necessarily enjoy surprising people. "I enj oy surprising myself," says the multi-face ted musical artist. " If I can surprise my self I can keep myse lf interested and keep myself from getting bored." That qul'Sl has resulted in "Feelings," which the co-founder of the · now defunct Talking Heads calls a dream record to make. Being able to experiment in a relaxed atmosphere in home studios with musicians with whom he wanted to work is the reason. A number of musicians. bands and producers contributed to the project for which Byrne says he did not have a particular sound or style in mind . " I just let th e so ngs come as they came. I had no agenda. I didn't want this to be like some records in the past. where it was a Latin record or a bare bones style. I thought, ' Whatever -the songs are, that 's what they are."' Byrne admits to wondering how he was going to deal with such a wide variety of styles on one album. " Then 1 realized this can be done, " he says. "I wnrked,with musicians a11 d people 1 admired whose work seemed (to fit the so11gs)." Paula Cole, for ex-ample, sang backup to the song " Miss America" at his New York apartment. Byme wa~n 't shy about blendi~g musical styles, including funk, Braztlian and Cajun, with abandon. Still, he says, this is 11ot his most ex~rimental album " not by any means.' Does he think record store managers will be scratching their heads as to where to file this album? " They scratch their heads with all my albums," he replies. "To me, maybe ~cause it ~oesn't have ~n agenda, ll's a very mce record to hsten to. I like the sound of it. " He hopes that his music moves people in the same way that he is moved when he buys somcone's record and likes it. " Records can be .more than just background mu_s ic," he says. Byrne, 45, hkes to vary what he does, not stay on the same path for any length of time. "1 kind of like to keep myself a little off guard and off balance.lt's a little more interesting walking oiibalance than walkingstraight." Vanety long has been tmportant to him. "I think Talking Heads started off that w~y. We were always kmd of a movmg target, dtfficult to pin 'down," he says. "It must have been unconscious.

Enjoy its beauty decorated for this Christmas. but also maRy years to -come, as it grows in your yard. Take time before you purchase a live Christm.as by reviewing these few pointers: • Purchase a healthy tree. The needles should be firmly attached, feel frcsl) and have good green color. The ball of soil around the roots should be solid and the tree trunk firmly attached to the root ball, not wobbly. • At home, store the tree in a cool, protected place such as an unheated garage or shed. The plant is dormant and should stay that way until replanted outdoors. Keep the soil around the roots moist. not wet. If the tree is brought into a warm. home (70 degrees F.), plan to leave it thefe only a week. The shorter the time in the house, the be!ler. After Christmas, the tree should be moved back' outdoors to a protected area so it can readjust to the cold. Continue to keep the soil ball moist. • Select a site for your tree that is · well drained and sheltered from winter winds- do this even before purchasing the tree. Remember, the tree . will grow to considerable size in a few years, so select an open area. If you have poorly drained soil, bring in soil and build up a mound to plant the tree in. Dig the hole twice as wide as the width of the ball. Work organic mauer such as peat moss, leaf mold, compost or well-roued manure and mix it into the soil. Cover the area with 4-6 inch.cs of straw to prevent the ground from freezing; • When planting, plate the ball in the hole, with the top ·of the ball slightly higher than its original lev. el. This allows for settling, which will occur before spring. Once the tree is planted, mulch to prevent water loss and stake it. To stake the tree, drive ~-by-2-inch wooden stakes firmly into the groun4 about a foot from the outside branches. Three stakes with guy wires placed around the tree will hold it in place. If a single stake is used, place it on the prevailing wind side. Wires should be encased in a piece of garden hose as it surrounds the tree trunk to prevent rubbing tnJury. Farmers, a few of you will be randomly chosen by the government to till out a Census of Agriculture questionnaire in the coming month. This form is sent out under the National Agricultural Statistics Service auspices to gather pertinent data from the farmer on cost of produclion._yields, farm income and labor requirements. · This data will allow companies and government agencies to tailor marketing and agricultur~l programs to meet local, state and regional ~gri­ cultural needs. All data collected is confid~ntial. This year's summary of individual farms. as in past censuses, enables trends to be discovered which · may forecast demands for agricultural products and supplies. . Farmer participation is mandated under Title 7 legislation; however, "honest" figures are most important to accurately predict future trends.

Asian crisis mayjmpede.. . growth in U.S. USA Today WASHINGTON - New Federal Reserve Gover11or Edward Gramlich says he expects Asia's financial crisis to slow U.S. economic growth somewhat next year. But he suggests that might not be so bad if it prevents the economy from overheating. "If there was going to be excessive spending gFowth, it looks like this will taper it off just about the right amount," the fonner University of Michigan professor says. In his first interview since joining the Fed three weeks ago, he dismissed talk that the Asian · crisis might lead to dellation and falling prices here. Instead, he says, the central bank needs to be alert to the risk of higher in nation. ~ · "We,should worry about it,'' he says. As one of seven members of the Fed board, Gramlich sits on the central bank's Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), which determines interest ralcs. His comments suggest he's in no rush to push rates up or down. ' The FOMC last altered monetary policy in March, when it nudged up the federal funds rate that commercial banks charge each other for overnight money to 5.5 percent from 5.25 percent.
