(AP) - In . territory too remote for cable television, identical lawn ornaments for years have graced huge estates and rundown trailers alike- monstrous, yawning satellite dishes. But like outhouses and milk cans, the dishes are giving way to the !atest tecl)nology- 18-inch dishes that are just as powerful as models 15 feel wide. Cathy Nardozzo made the switch from an old C-band dish to a small one eight months ago when the motor th,at rotated the large dish broke. "We figured instead of spending the money to fix the motor, we'll just get a small dish, " she said. Like a jalopy next to a sports car, the Nardozzos' old dish sits dormant by the new one on their central Pennsylvania farm. Bird droppings cover the large black dish. and her dogs sometimes sprawl in its ample shade. " I have no idea what to do with it," she said. Other owners have turned them into kiddie pools, landscaping ponds . or birdbaths. . The C-band dishes first hit the : market in the early 1980s and were scooped up by television-starved rur- · al residents weary of snowy reception and the two or three channels available with an old-fashioned antenna. The first dishes - advertised in Neiman-Marcus catalogs in 1979cost $36,000 and were almost 20 feet wide. The price dropped to $3,500 by 1984 and, eventually, to less than $2.500. The large dishes used to be status symbols in rural areas, and residents typically placed them prominently in front yards. People joked that Vermont, where 30 percent of the populatlon can't get cable, should declare the satellite dish the official state flower. The first C-band owners were able to pirate almost any signal they wanted, from movie channels such as Home Box Office to raw network feeds that allowed peeks at what news anchors and sports announcers did during commercial breaks. her :Vol. 47, NO. 56 use are rep,laclllg In landscapea, but what to do with . problem for owners.

Nancy Hollister during a. two-day tour of southeastern Ohio, culminating this morning with an economic forum in Marietta. Monday morning, Hollister toured the Carleton School in Syracuse, in particular examining the combined manufacturing facilities of Meigs Industries arid the school. Currently, Meigs lndustries is producing parts for teddy bears manufactured by the Ohio River Bear Co. of Middleport, cutting out patterns for the bears which are assembled later. The Ohio River Bear Co. and its owner, Susan Baker, were recently bestowed the Governor's Award of Excellence in Exporting. "All (the bears) have different personalities," Hollister said. "People need to be aware ... · they are creating different personalities." In keeping with that theme, the patterns are marked with each bear's individual name - no two bears are the same. In addition, Hollister was updaied on Meigs Industries' other activities, including the construction of wooden crates on contract for the College &ook Store in Athens. The crates are "standard·college furnilure," according to Adult Services Director David Milliken. Hollister asked what those asso- __ ciated with Carleton School/Meigs- · Industries see as their biggest challenge.

"Let's be realistic, we cannot be a one-issue party," Dole said as he announced his selection of Rep. Susan Molinari - a moderate Republican - to give the important prime-time speech. "We want to win the election." Dole said in a joint appearance with his wife, Elizabeth, on CNN's "Larry King Live" Monday night. VIEWING REVITALIZATION - Lt. Gov.

Personal loans boost Cremeans warchest WASHINGTON (AP)- Personal wealth helped Republican Rep. Frank Cremeans surge ahead of his challenger in the 6th District when both campaigns tallied their available cash. The Cremeans campaign's financial disclosure statement showed Monday that the freshmad began July with more than $428.000 in the bank. compared with just over $255.000 for the campaign of Democrat Ted Strickland. Cremeans, who owns a concrete business in Gallipolis, actually would have been trailing Strickland, a psychologist , in the cash department if he hadn't been willing to put his own money into the campaign in the form of $325,000 in personal loans so far this year. Cremeans also used his own money to anchor his successful 1994 campaign, and then devoted 1995 to finding Republicans contributors who would donate retroactively and help the campaign repay the money to Cremeans himself. That experience helped make Cremeans an experienced fund -raiser. Throughout the first six months of the year, Cremeans attracted more political action committee money ($157,000 vs. $118,000 for Strickland) and more individual contributions ($200,251 vs. $7K,()(X) for Strickland.) Not evident on the forms was whatever boost Strickland has received from commercials written independent of the campaign .and paid fnr hy groups opposing Cremeans' positions on selected issues. Both Citizen Action and the AFL-CIO have bought those kinds of commercials in southern Ohio.

In an election year in which Democrats face an uphill fight to win back control of the Congress, Fields' decision has to be good news to party strategists. The once "solid South" that sent legions of Democrats to Congress is on the verge of becoming the nation's top breeding ground for GOP officeholders. Louisiana and Arkansas are the only states of the old Confederacy in which both Senate scats an: held by Democrats. By stepping aside, Fields strengthens his party's chances of maintaining control of his slate's Senate delegation, only one of whose two seats is up for g-;abs in November. His decision also boom the possibility that his congressional district also will stay in Democratic hands. The boundary lines for Louisiana's 4th Congressional District, which Fields repre5ents, were ordered redrawn last year after a federal court concluded that race was the primary factor in its creation. With the racial composition of his district shifted from majority black to one dominated by whites, Fields had lit. tie chance of winning re-election.

Gannett New Service WASHINGTON - To move ahead, sometimes you have to back up to get a running start. Rep. Cleo Fields did some backing up over the weekend when he announced that he won't make a run for the Senate or seek re-election to the House of Representatives. His decision gives Democrats a leg up in their efforts to stem the tide of Republican victories in the South. Fields. a black congressman in his second term, was expected to compete for the Senate seat from Louisiana that's being vacated by r_etiring Sen. Bennell Johnston, a fel low Democrat. With African Americans comprising roughly a third of the state's voters, Fields was thought to have .a good chance of ending up in a runoff with one of the 14 while candidates in the race. But he had little chance of ultimately winning the general election. · In dropping out, Fields said he would instead become a senior ad~is­ er to . the Clinton-Gore re-election campaign. That's a wise decision that came a year too late. Last ;year Fields faced Democrat-turned-Republican Mike Foster in a runoff for Louisiana's governorship and lost is a landslide to the white conservative. His lopsided defeat signaled the unwillingness of the stale's white voters to elect a black candidate to office and the frailty of the Democratic party's position in the Bayou State.

By DONALD M. ROTHBERG AP Diplomatic Writer . . WASHINGTON - Terrorism is redefining the context 10 wh1ch U.S. forces are deployed in the world 's trouble spots. Whether it is Somalia, Bosnia or Saudi Arabia, the primary mission 1s becommg zero casualties and a clear exit strategy. · The phrase brought to the forefront by the tragedy in Saudi Arabia is force protection. Congress is demanding to know whether enough was. done to guard against the terrorist auack that killed 19 U.S. wrmen at a housmg complex June 25. Why wasn 't the defensive perimeter farther from Khobar Towers? Was enough allention paid tp suspicious incidents in the weeks before the bombing? Why didn't the United States press the Saud1 gove'!'m~ntt~ allow the FBI to question four men convicted of a lerronsl bombing m R1yadtl seven months ago' . . Those questions dominated a Senate hearmg last week at whach Defense Secretary William Perry and Gen. John ShalikashviH, the nation's top uniformed military officer, were gnlled about the bombmg. The questions demand answers. Co~gress and the public at large have a right to know if neglect played a part m allowmg the terronsts to set off a truck bomb that close to the housing area. But whatever answers come forth, the reality is that there is no way of assuring that U.S. officials and troops are totally safe from terrorist attacks. "It 's quite counterproductive to have American forces when they go overseas to just immediately crawl mlo their bunkers and hang on," said Eliot Cohen. a professor of strategic studies at Johns Hopkins University who directed a Pentagon study of the Persian Gulf air war. . "If we 're going to be a global power we 're going lo periodically get hit," said Cohen. "You cannot ever throw an impenetrable curtain around the incredible multiplicity of American facilities and officials either in this country or serving abroad," said fom1er CIA Dir~ctor Robert Gates. • . "·The fact is, U.S. counterterronsm operatmns are far more effecuve, far more aggressive and far better than most Americans know," he said. In light of the impossibility of creating that impenetrable curtain, Sen. Sam Nunn, D-Ga .. the Senate's most respected authority on defense questions, saw danger in allowing self protection to become the primary mission of U.S. forces . " I hope we don 't come Ollt of this hearing with a mentality that the only thing that a commander does in the field protecting our national interest is to protect the force ," Nunn said. ." Because if that is the whole mission, then we will have a bunker mentality, and we will not be able to protect America's national interests, and the largest superpower in the world will find itself immobilized," he continued . "I hope we don ' I come to a conclusion that zero, casualties i~ possible in the military, or really for that matter in any lcinJI of risky endeavor." According to Pentagon figures. 1.054 military personnel died during the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, 1995. Six of those were in terrorist attacks. More than half the total were the result of accidents. The Pentagon could not supply a breakdown of how many of the accidental deaths occurred during military activities such as training exercises or plane crashes. The threat of casualties and the possibility of being bogged down for an indefinite time were major issues during the debate over whether the Unil'ed Stales should contribute 20.000 troops to the NATO peacekeeping force in Bosnia. So far, that mi ssion has hcen remarkably free of combat casualties. The pullout of U.S. forces from Bosnia will begin soon and should be nearly complete by early November. Under the plan set fonh when the troops were commilled. they would stay for not more than one year, a dendline tl)al expires al the beginning of December. . . .

My family and I gathered many facts to help us in the decision-makiJ!g ptocess. Because we planned ahead,. it eased the stress that accoiJIIlanied choosing the best nursing home for my dad. Another advantage was a booklet called Guide To Choosing A Nursing Home that we got from the Health Care Finance Administration which runs the Medicare program. It provided much of the information we used to make the selection. One of our concerns was the cost: We found three basic ways in which nursing home costs may -be financed-private insurance. Medicaid, and Medicare. When considering pay· ment through Medicaid, it's imponant to contact the local State Medicaid Agency for eligibility and program information as early in the placement process as possible. When shopping for a nursing home remember to carry a nursing home checklist and observe: • the daily life style of the residents; • the care residents receive from the staff; • how the nursing home handles payment; and • the environment. You should also know that your State health department produces a yearly report, which you should review, on the performance of each nursing home that is certified for Medicare or Medicaid. The report shmild be posted at the nursing ho111e and' is a],o available through your State heidth depanment or (rom IIJe local bmbudsmah program. . ' For more information on how to shop for the bes~ nursing 'home and what questions to ask, call the He,al~ Care Financing Attministration's Medicare Hotline at 1 - 800-~3 8 -683}, and ask for the booklet, tJuillt To Choosing A Nursing !;lome. Also, call · the Social Security A&ninistration at 1-800.772-1213 for general Medicare information. It's important to remember that choosing a nursing home will require you to use critical judgment at a variety of levels. Your final judgment should also include your intuitive "gut feeling ." In addition. you should seek in(onnation from a broad base of sources and not rely on any one \ ource in making your decision .

By RICHARD BENEDETTO USA TODAY FAJARDO, Puerto Rico- Pres· ident Clinton told the nation 's governors Tuesday that if Congress fails to pass a welfare reform bill he can sign this year he will use an executive order to require welfare recipi· ents in all 50 states to work within two years. Some 28 states have work require· ments and time limits on benefits, but Clinton would use the order to expand it nationwide. "I far prefer a bill passed by Con· gress and I know you do too. So lets agree one way or another we' II make work and responsibility the law of the · land," the president said in a televised speech to the National Governors Association, which wound up four days of meetings here on Tuesday. Congress is shaping a welfare reform bill in hopes of putting one on the president's desk before the scs· sion ends in early Au,gusl. But Clin· ton said he wants Congress to "improve" the bill along the lines of .a bipartisan measure put fo~ward by several Republican and Democratic members of the House and Senate. But Republican governors say they have some problems with that bill in that it still leaves too much power in the hands of the federal gov· starts rise WASHINGTON (AP) - Housing starts rose U percent in J unc as builders rushed to meet consumer demand despite the highest mortgage , rates in more than a year. Single-family construction hit a two-year high . Activity was mixed. with starts increasing in the South and West and declining in the Nonheast and Mid· -~ent with regard to welfare pro· g;./,;; design and rules. "That's not the bill we want," said Iowa GOP Gov. Terry Branstad. But Clinton, sounding an opti· mistic note, said agreement is within reach . "We must no let this opportunity slip form our grasp, as it has too many times before," he said. Clinton was preceded by Repub· lican presidential candidate Bob Dole, who, also speaki ng via 1V, questioned whether Clinton was sin· cere about welfare reform. He criticized the president for already veto· ing two welfare reform bills and reneging on a promise to approve within 30 days requests by slates to engage in experimental programs to improve their own welfare systems. "Thirty-day approval has proven to be an empty pledge," Dole said, noting it still takes an average 210 days for the wai vers to be granted. The-back-to-back speeches by the 1996 presidential rivals abruptly end· ed the biparti san spirit that up to that point had marked the governors' meetings. And Republican governors, who had been saying the Dole campaign needed some spark, leapt to his defense in the verbal battle with Clinton. west .

Americans have spent about $400 million testing forthe radioactive gas and renovating homes with high lev'cis. But experts said Tuesday the Finnish study a·nd others with simi· lar results now suggest the minimum 'residential level of the gas that pos· .cs a significant cancer risk is not known . The new study, published today, analyzed residential exposure to radon among I ,055 lung cancer patients in Finland and compared that with lhc radon exposure of 1.544 people without . lung cancer. Researchers al the Finnish Centre for Radiation and Nuclear Safety con· eluded that "radon exposure does not appear to be an important cause of lung cancer." - Tlu: study appears in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute. John D. Boice Jr., ·a former National Cancer Institute chief of radiation epidemiology, praised the study and said. "It raises concerns about the validity of risk for the low doses experienced in the home ." But he also said, "There is no question· that radon causes lung can· cer. The uncertainty is whal is the level of risk from low dose expos~_!(' Radon is a gas that forms from the decay of uranium and radium in soil and rocks.

By early 1992, "we unanimously agreed that we needed to improve our liftgate latch," Sheridan testified in the lawsuit in a Texas court. But it was not until spring 1995 that Chrysler asked more than 4 mil· lion owners of 1984-1995 Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Caravan and Plymouth Voyager minivans to bring them in for free installation of a stronger liftgate latch.
