Israel navy halts Gaza-bound .boat without violence
ASHDOD, Israel (AP)
- Israeli naval forces
seized
a
sailboat
Tuesday carrying nine
Jewish activists toward
blockaded Gaza without
meeting any resistance
and then escorted it
safely to shore. the military said.
The incident came four
months after a deadly
Israeli raid on a Turkishled international flotilla.
in which Israeli naval
commandos killed nine
Turkish activists. one of
them a dual TurkishAmerican citizen.
The sailboat Irene. like
the earlier flotilla. was
trying to breach Israel's
three-year-old
naval
blockade
of
the
Palestinian territory.
Pro-Palestinian
activists have sailed a
stnng of blockade-busting boats to the coastal
strip over the· past two
years. Few have reached
Gaza. but they have

Israeli security. shaken
the country's policies
toward Gaza and damaged its image abroad.
On Tuesday. a U.N.
expert panel investigating
the deadly May raid

accused Israel of suppressing seized footage
from the Turkish-led
flotilla.
Israel imposed the
blockade in 2007 after
the Islamic militant
Hamas group seized
Gaza. a crowded seaside
territory on
Israel's
southwest corner.
Israel intended to stop
Hamas. which has ftred
thousands of rockets

group's grip on power
and pressure them to
release a captured Israeli
soldier. None of those
goals
have
been
achieved. and the blockade deepened the misery
among Gaza·s impoverished population of 1.5
million people.
Responding to the
anger after the bloody
raid on the Turkish flotilla. Israel significantly
eased the blockade.
The Irene set sail earlier this week from
Turkish-controlled
Northern Cyprus.
The passengers included a former Israeli fighter

lub presents plaque of appreciation
CHESTER
A
plaque of appreciation
was presented to Alan
Holter for his restoration work on the
Chester Cemetery canon
at the recent open meeting of Chester Garden
Club held at the Chester
U.M. Church.
1 was noted that in
addition to Holter's

work on the canon, the
Meigs County Veterans
office, the Board of
Veterans Affairs, and
Jeff Nottingham were
instrumental in obtaining material funding for
resurfacing the old
canon which was placed
there in the early 1900s
on a large concrete slab.
It was noted that

about 40 years ago the
Chester Garden Club
had placed on the corners of that slab large
concrete urns in which
for many years member
planted flowers. Two
years ago those urns
were stolen and efforts
to recover have been
unsuccessful.
During the open meet-

ing where several Meigs
County garden clubs
were represented, floral
designer Craig Matheny
of CoolvilJe gave a
demonstration on flower
arrangements.
He presented those
arrangements to longtime members of the
club, Pat Holter, Judy
Rigsby, and Edna Wood.

In

urches in the Pomeroy
area are joining together
on Sunday to celebrate
unity in Christ with a participation in the Lord's
Supper.
The celebration, to be
held at the riverfront
amphitheater at 9 a.m., is
a community event open
to everyone. "Jesus said
that 'whosoever will' is

invited to come and dine
with Him." said the Rev.
Brian Dunham, pastor of

Methodist
Church, "and we welcome all who want to
join in the celebration."
The amphitheater was
described by Dunham as
a ''beautiful setting of
God's creation that facilitates worshipping him
and breathes mspiration
into our hearts. Jesus'

prayer in the garden of
Gethsemane, the night
before He gave His life
for all who would receive
Him, was that we might
be one as He and the
Father are one.
We

ASK DR. BROTHERS

Wife steals,
husband tries to deal ·
Dear Dr. Brothers:
My wife has been working in a local department
store for a few years now.
We have to watch our
budget pretty carefully,
but between her income
and mine ---' I'm a construction foreman - we
get by. Anyway, she's
been coming home with a
lot of stuff from the store
that she got with her
company discount. She
tucks in the tags and
wears the dresses and
things, and then returns
them. She says everyone
does this. I don't respect
this - isn't it like stealing?- B.J.
Dear B.J.: I hope you
will talk to your wife
about this practice of hers
before it gets out of hand.
I am sure that at the retail
shop, she has seen and
heard all kinds of things.
People especially
women - unfortunately
have been gaming the
system for years, but it is
mostly
unscrupulous
teenagers or other customers who wear clothing and then return it, just
to stretch a wardrobe
they can't really afford. It
seems your wife has
picked up this bad idea
from the bad customers!
Or perhaps it is part of
the corporat~ culture the unofficial one, in
which managers look the
other way while lowerlevel people take ·advantage of the store.
Regardless where she
got the idea that this is
OK, it really isn't.
Although the company
expects losses from
damaged or otherwise
unsalable merchandise,
there's no reason its own
employees should help
weaken the bottom line.
Even if she returns the
clothing in great condition, you know she is
cheating herself and the
company, and that's a
problem. You
must
express your disapproval
and let her know how
this is affecting your
feelings for her. I hope
that will be enough to
make her stop doing it
before she finds herself
out of a job, or needing
to win back your respect.
Either one would be a
disaster. But you also
need to reach out and
make her feel special. It
doesn't have to cost a
thing but could really
turn things around.

Dear Dr. Brothers: I
am a 24-year-old violin
player who is lucky
enough to eke out a meager living playing my
music. I'm the only girl

The problem is, the bass
player who drives the

Family Medicine: New school years; another case of head lice
Bv MARTHA A.
SIMPSON, D.O., M.B.A.
OHIO UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF
OSTEOPATHIC MEDICINE

Question: School just
started a couple of weeks
ago, and my chil~ has
already contracted head
lice. This happened last
year. as well. Is there anything new to treat this or,
even better, prevent it?
Answer: Head lice is
quite common among
small children because
they tend to have close
contact with one another.
'The classroom, coat room
playground are comn places where lice can
•
spread, so most schools
want to know if a child has
head lice so they can alert
other parents to the problem and contain it while it
is still limited to only a few
children. Unfortunately. it
sounds like your child
became infected before
you were warned.
fo check for head lice,
look at the hairline

around the back of the
neck, in particular, and
alJ throughout the scalp.
Adult lice are easily visible as small white specks
or dots on the scalp. A
magnifying glass can
help to differentiate them
from dandmff. Since lice
bite their victims on the
scalp, you may also see
tiny red dots with evidence of itching. Adult
lice lay eggs that attach
to the hair shafts, and
these hatch in about a
month then become
mature adult lice a couple
of weeks after that.
There are over-thecounter medications that can
kil( adult lice, but the eggs
must be combed out of the
hair. It may require multiple
combings over several days
to get all of the dead adults
and nits out of the hair.
In addition to treating the
pe~on with lice, you also
must wash their clothing
and bedding well in hot
water when possible.
Stuftect animals and toys

should be bagged up in airtight plastic bags for at least
two weeks to kill the lice
and eggs. You also should
vacuum overstuffed furni-

ture and carpeting, and all
combs and brushes should
be washed or soaked in
alcohol. Finally, be sure
you check other family

members for lice, as well.
Unfortunately, there is
no prevention available at
this time for this age-old
problem.

Dr. Joyce Brothers
to kill us all some night,
but the other members
don't seem to mind!
How can I fix this with-'
out seeming like a mom?
- T.C.
Dear T.C.: This is a
difficult
problem,
because you are part of
a family when you're in
a band and doing a lot
of touring. There's
always stuff to work out
and personality conflicts and who knows
what else going on to
complicate matters, and
the fact that you depend
so much on one another
for your "meager" living means you don't
want to take too many
chances on someone
getting mad or disillusioned and walking_
away from your only
moneymaking gig. So I
can see how you are tiptoeing around a bit
when it comes to the
bass player's behavior.
But come on! It's yout
life we are talking about!
Drinking and driving is
never cool, and if you
have no support from the'
other band members, I
can see how this is a
really serious problem
that you basically have
to solve on your own.
You aren't in a position
to take a separate car on
the road, but how about
talking to your mates
(not while anyone iS
drunk) about sharing the
job of designated driver?
Everyone would have totake a turn. If someone
doesn't like the idea, he
needs to pay another
band member to take his
place, or make some
other arrangement. This
should be settled outside
of the tour bus or van
and while you all are
sober. Loss of a license
or getting into an accident would really mess
up the band big time, so
get this sorted out right
away.

Ohio among top places where
criminals get firearms
Bv THE

A SSOCIATED PRESS

Nearly half of the guns that crossed
state lines and were used in crimes in
2009 were sold in just 10 states,
according to a report being released
Monday by a mayors' group.
Those states accounted for near l y
21,000 guns connected ro crimes in
other states, said the survey by Mayors
Against Illegal Guns, an association of
more than 500 mayors led by New
York's
Michael
Bloomberg
and
Boston's Thomas Menino.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,
Firearms and Explosives traced more
than 145,000 guns used in crimes in
2009 an~ found that more than 43,000
of those weapons were sold in other
states.
Forty - nine percent of those guns were
sold in Georgia, Florida. Virginia,
Texas, I ndiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania,
North Carolina, California or Arizona.
States were also ranked by the number of crime guns exported per 100,000
inhabitants. Mississippi led that list,
followed by West Vlfginia, Kentucky,
Alaska. Alabama. South Carolina,
Virginia, Indiana. Nevada a nd G eorgia.
Those states, the report said. have
more relaxed gun laws, sugges t ing that

GOP groups ovenvhelm

Dems with political ads
Bv JIM

KuHNHENN
AND LIZ SIDOTI
ASSOCIATED PRESS

In one way at least, the fight for
control of Congress is grossly
one-sided.
Just five weeks from midtetm
elections, groups aUied with the
Republican Party and financed in
part by corporations and millionaires have amassed a crushing 6-1
advantage in television spending,
and now are dominating the airwaves in closely contested districts and states across the country.
The extra firepower on the conservative side comes as some key
Democratic-leaning organizations
are experiencing unexpected trouble raising money or motivating
supporters.
The ad:vertising mismatch,
reflected in campaign documents
obtained by The Associated Press,
is hampering efforts by President
Barack Obama and Democratic
leaders to sway a shrinking number of undecided voters. Early
voting has already begun in some
states, and Republicans are positioned to win a number of House
and Senate seats, placing
Democratic control of both chambers in jeopardy.
Helped by looser fundraising
rules, about two dozen organizations
intended
to
benefit
Republicans are active this fall in
House and Senate races; fewer
than 10 are aimed at helping
Democrats. Ad spending by GOP
allies over the past two months
has totaled nearly $30 million in
15 states with competitive Senate
or House races; Democratic outside groups hav~ spent less than
$5 million. And even more
money, perhaps from even more
groups, is expected to roll out in
the final month of the campaign
"There's no even playing field
here,'' said Rep. Chris Van Hollen
of Maryland, the chairman of the
Democratic
Congressional
Campaign Committee.
Democratic strategists say it has
been far easier to raise money
from big-time party donors in past
elections, when Democrats were
seeking to unseat Republicans
with promises of change.
Defending seats has not created
the same sense of urgency, they
said. Moreover, some Democrats
blame disillusionment with
Obama and the Democratic-controlled Congress. And labor is
devoting much of its general election money on get-out-the-vote
efforts, not on high visibility television ads.
"It would be a very different situation in the rest of the country if
the progressive base and the
Democratic groups were fighting
back," said Craig Varoga, a
Democratic strategist who is
mounting a campaign in the

Senate race in Nevada, one of the
few waging an air war on the
Democrats' side.
"Some people unfortunately
were waiting for the economy or
for circumstances to magically
change and they haven't,'' he said,
explaining the lopsided supp011
for GOP groups.
The sheer numbers, spelled out
in the documents, tell the story.
• In Colorado's contest between
Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet
and Republican Ken Buck,
Republican allied groups have
spent more than $4 million in
advertising in the state, most of it
on
ads
against
Bennet.
Democratic-leaning
outside
groups have been virtually silent.
•
In
Washington
state,
Democratic Sen. Patty Murray is
facing an onslaught from
Republican-connected organizations in her race against Dino
Rossi, with more than $2 million
spent in August and September
against her by conservative
groups. A new Democratic group,
Commonsense Ten, just _weighed
in with a $400,000 advertising
effort.
• Republican groups are also
mounting a strong defense to hold
onto Republican seats. They
poured more than $2 million into
New
Hampshire
opposing
Democratic Rep. Paul Hodes who
is vying for the seat held by retiring Republican Sen. Judd Gregg.
Similarly, GOP groups have spent
more than $2.5 million in
Missouri, much against Democrat
Robin Carnahan who is seeking
the seat held by retiring
Republican Sen. Kit Bond. The
money outguns Commonsense
Ten and the Ametican Federation
of State, County and Municipal
Employees, which have been running ads against Carnahan's
opponent, Rep. Roy Blunt.
• Nevada, where Senate
Majority Leader Harry Reid is
battling for his political life,
stands out as one bright spot for
Democrats. Varoga 's Patriot
Majority. a group heavily
financed by unions, has spent
more than $1.5 miHion in ads targeting
Reid's
opponent,
Republican Sharron Angle. The
National Republican Senatorial
Committee has been forced to '
weigh in with $700,000 in ad
spending to keep the contest
financially even.
The most signifiCant players in
the advertising assault on Senate
Democratic candidates are the
affiliated American Crossroads
and Crossroads GPS. launched
under the direction of former
Bush administration political'
operative Karl Rove, and the U.S.
Chamber of Conimerce. Together,
the three groups account for about
$13 million in ad spending.
So far, the action is more limited in House races but still very

much tilted toward Republicans. '
Four GOP-leaning groups are
spending more than $6 million
combined in roughly three dozen
races to less .than $1 million for
Democratic interests, led by the
Service Employees International
Union.
In many cases, the Republican
allies are the only outside groups
on the air. For example,
Americans for Tax Reform is
spending nearly $200,000 to help
topple Democratic Rep. Ben
Chandler of Kentucky, while
Americans for Job Security is up
with $230,000 in ads in New
York_
's
24th
Congressional
District against Democratic Rep.
Michael Arcuri.
Still, there are signs that
Democratic-aligned groups are
becoming more active in the final
'weeks. The SEIU has weighed in
the last few days with $450,000 in
Ohio's
16th
Congression.
District to help Democratic Re
John Boccieri and $250,000 in
Michigan's 7th district to counter
attacks on freshman Democratic
Rep. Mark Schauer.
fhe GOP is getting additional
help from some groups that don't
even weigh in directly in congressional races. Americans for
Prosperity, a conservative group
started by billionaire conservative
David Koch, has spent about $5.5
million in key House battlegrounds with ads that don't mention candidates but criticize
Obama 's policies.
The financial advantage by outside GOP groups makes up for
anemic fundraising by the
Republican Party. The party's
national committees trail their
Democratic counterparts in overall contributions and overall cash
on hand. That imbalance has
helped Democrats respond to the
avalanche of ads from GOP-allied
groups in some key battlegrounds,
but that is money Democrats
would have preferred to have
hand for a final campaign thrust in
October.
The GOP groups appear to be
benefiting from a Supreme Court
ruling earlier this year that freed
big business - which typically
leans Republican - to spend
their millions directly to sway
federal elections. What's more,
several of the groups are set up as
nonprofit corporations under the
Internal Revenue Service code.
and they don't have to reveal their
donors.
"You've gone to a world where
the Supreme Court has said corporations have a constitutional
right to do this spending." said
Trevor Potter, a campaign finance
lawyer who was counsel to John
McCain ·s Republican presidential
campaign. "That green light has
been very important."

Miracle in Rutland: Trail ride raises record amount
Bv BETH SERGENT
BSEAGENT@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM

RUTLAND
Despite a lagging economy which seems to
need major prayers to
St. Jude, the patron
saint of lost causes. this
month's St. Jude Trail
Ride raised a record
amount for the hospital
that treats sick children
regardless of income.
"It's
a
miracle,"
Isabel Dill. orgamzer of
the trail ride and Fun
Day at the Dill Farm
said. ''I think everybody got blessed that
day:·
Dill reported the day
of the ride. which celebrated its 15th anniversary this month, a
record amount was collected
and
totaled
$20,535 with more
money to come in.

·' I thought
I was
going to fall over," Dill
said when she returned
from the 10-mile trail
ride to hear the amount
collected. ''My goal
was to raise $100 over
last year."
Dill met that goal and
then some considering
last year's trail ride
raised $19.600. This
year's ride also had a
record number of registered riders at 261 .
Though the ride was
free, Dill said almost
everyone on the ride
donated to the cause.
There were also 180
door prizes donated by
individuals and businesses which helped
push the total even
higher.

ODOT begins preparing for winter
COLUMBUS
Although the calendar
still reads September. the
Ohio Department of
Transportation (ODOT)
is already "Working for
Winter'' by inspecting
every snowplow and salt
spreader in its fleet to
make sure they are road
ready when the first
snowflake falls.
The reason: a report
showmg that if Ohio's
transportation
system
shut down for even just
one day because of snow
and ice. Ohio workers
could lose out on as
much as $200 million in
wages and paychecks.

"ODOT is 'working for
winter' to ensure that
Ohio's economic engine
never stops running, even
when snow and ice blanket our state," said
ODOT Director Jolene
M. Molitoris. ·'Whenever
the first snow falls,
ODOT's crews will be
ready - to make sure
Ohioans can safely get to
work. goods can get to
market an-time, and vital
services are accessible all
across the state."
Over the next several
weeks, ODOT garages
across the state will be
inspecting, checking, and
fine-tuning snow removal

equipment, as part of
county-by-county
Operational Readiness
Events.
This season. ODOT
will have more than
1,700 plow trucks and
more than 3,000 trained
drivers ready to clear ice
and snow from the state's
roadways and bridges.
ODOT maintains nearly
40.000 lane miles of
state highway, which
carries approximately
two thirds of the state's
daily traffic.
According to a report
by
the
American
Highway Users Alliance.
if Ohio's transportation

system were to shut
down for one day due to
a winter storm, the total
economic impact would
cau'se the state to lose
more than $300 million
in direct and indirect productivity.
The report says snowrelated shutdowns affect
hourly workers the most.
In all. Ohio workers
could lose more than
$205 million in direct
and
indirect
wages,
according to the research.
Ohio would also lose
vital tax revenue - as
much as $11.4 million in
state and local taxes. and
$15 million in federal

taxes - in just one day.
Last winter, ODOT
used 665,244 tons of salt
and invested $78 million
to keep highways and
bridges safe and passable
throughout the season.
Beyond the plows,
ODOT will once again
remind drivers that in
"Ice and Snow ... Take it
Slow."
To keep drivers safe
this winter. ODOT wants
drivers to "KNO B4 U
GO'' with a safe driving
"tweet" from Twitter.
ODOT will offer instant
information on winter
conditions along interstates and highways in

Akron. .
Cincinnati,
Cleveland, Columbus,
Dayton and Toledo. More
than 8.000 followers ar.
signed up for the sen1c
so far.
ODOT's Twitter efforts
build upon the success of
the department's premier
website
traffic
www.B uckeyeTraffic.org
With user-friendly,
map-based
features.
ODOT's website had
more than 131 million
hits
last
winter.

information and 24-hour
road conditions across
the state.

Two-thirds of the CEOs

The price increases
were fueled by nowexpired homebuyer tax

record number of foreclosures, JOb concems and
weak demand from buyers are pushing prices
down.

Home prices to take hit next year in many markets

•

WASHINGTON (AP)
- Don't take the latest
snapshot of U.S. home
prices too seriously.
The
Standard
&amp;
Poor's/Case-Shiller 20city
index
released
Tuesday ticked up in July
from June. But the gain is
merely temporary. analysts say. They see home
values taking a dive in
many major markets well
into next year.
That's because the
peak home-buying sea&lt;;on is now ending after a
dismal summer. The
hardest-hit
markets,
already battered by foreclosures. are bracing for
a bigger wave of homes
sold at foreclosure or
through short sales. A
short sale is when · a
lender lets a homeowner
sell for less than the
mortgage is worth.
Add high unemploy- .
ment cu1d reluctant buy- .
ers, and the outlook in
many areas is bleak.
Nationally. home values
are proJected to fall 2.2
percent in the second half
of the year, according to
analysts surveyed by
MacroMarkets LLC. And
Moody's Analytics predicts the Case-Shiller

index will drop 8 percent
within a year.
Among the areas likely
to endure big price drops,
according to Veros. a real
estate analysis company:

Only the top two teams
in the regional tournament advance to the
state tournament along
with the two best indi-.,. idua1 scores from the
non-qualifing teams.
Without a doubt, the
young men from P'oint
have to he disappointed
in the ending of this season. They played very
well in almost every
match this season losing
only a few matches.
However, most of their
starting line-up, including Opie Lucas, are
scheduled to return next
fall. They can look forward to another good
team.

Cincinnati Reds' Jay Bruce (32) is greeted at home plate after hitting a home run off Houston Astros relief pitcher Tim Bydak in the ninth inning of a baseball game,
Tuesday in Cincinnati. Cincinnati clinched the NL Central with a 3-2 win.

Reds clinch title, 1st playoff spot in 15 years
CINCIN\lATI (AP) - The Reds
are headed to the playoffs for the first
time in 15 years, completing the
long-awaited trip with Jay Bruce's
one dramatic swing.
Bruce homered. on the first pitch
from Tim Byrdak in the bottom of the
ninth Tuesday night for a 3-2 victory
over the Hous·ton Astros that secured
the NL Central title.
It was a fitting finish to the unexpected
championship
drive.
Cincinnati has won 22 games in its
last at-bat. second-most in the
majors.
Left-hander Aro1dis Chapman (2-2)
pitched a perfect ninth, topping out at
101 mph while showing playoff
opponents the nasty stuff they can
expect.
Bruce latched onto the first pitch
from Byrdak (2-2) and lined it over
the wall in center, sending teammates
sprinting to home plate to pummel
him after he touched home with the
title-winning run while fireworks
went off overhead.
With the title, Dusty Baker joinei.:l
Bill McKechnie as the only managers
to lead three different NL teams to
the playoffs. Baker also has made it
' with the Giants and Cubs.
The Reds sold 30, 15 I tickets for
the 'Cimching game - above-average
for a cool September weeknight and took the field almost tasting it.
Second baseman Brandon Phillips
&lt;;atd he doesn't drink and has never
taken so much as a sip of champagne.
·'Every body is looking forward to
seeing me do it." Phillips said. "I

don't know how it's going to taste. I
don't know what's going to happen.''
Most Reds were novices at the sipand-spray tradition. Four female fans··

''Show Us The Bubbly."
·
They showed some defense when
Drew Stubbs stretched above the
wall in center to steal a two-run
homer away from Carlos Lee in the
third inning, drawing a standing ovation.
The crowd was on its feet again in
the sixth, when the Reds loaded the
bases wirh none out. Phillips tied it at
2 with an infield single to the hole at
shortstop. but Bruce grounded into
an inntng-ending double play.
Bruce made up for it on his next
swing.
The Reds celebrated their title a
day after Philadelphia clinched its
fourth straight NL East title - no
surprise there. The Reds' recent history made them a most unexpected
playoff team.
The Reds hadn't reached the postseason since 1995. when Davey

because owner Marge Schott didn ·t
like him.
After that, Cincinnati lost its way.
