The conviction of John Eugene Carper, 48, followed a three-month investigation by the Meigs County Sheriff's Department and U.S. postal inspectors. Meigs County Common Pleas Court Judge · Fred W. Crow III sentenced Carper last week to 18 months in prison, on a single count of menacing by stalking, a fourth-degree felony, and one year each on five counts of importuning, all fifth-degree felonies. Sentences on three of the importuning charges were suspended, and Carper was ordered to complete the community control probation program upon his release from prison. Carper will be required to register as a sexual ·predator once he has been released from prison, and will be required to keep law enforcement agencies informed of h,is address, Sheriff Ralph Trussell said.

The Board of Regents was on the Rio Grande campus on Jan. 22 to hold its regular monthly meeting. T~ board often. moves its meeti ~s to college campuses around Ohio, although this is the first time the board has. held a meeting on the Rio Grande campu s. . During the Board Of Rege nts afternoon session, : the members heard' fro in Rio : Grande President Dr. Barry · Dorsey, and several other individuals involved with Rio Grande and the community. . Dorsey and the other commu. nity leaders reflected on Rio : Grande and its impact on the ·community. Alicia Halley of Gallipolis, a sophomore education major, told the Board of . Regents her story about how : Rio Grande helped motivate · her and overcome her health : P,roblems. While in high, sc hool. Halley was diagnosed with bone ca ncer. She had to undergo chemotherapy· and radiation therapy treatments. During the time she was undergoing her treatment. her high school advisor suggested that she should till out some sct10 Iarsliip applications for college. At the time, Halley dido ' t fee l like she could go to college and she didn ' t think she could afford it either. " I sai d, ' Well, you ' re crazy,"' Halley said about what she told her guidance counselor. But even though she was weak and her body was fi~hting a tumor that was " the stze of a brick" in her hip, Halley applied for the scholarships. She was awarded a full scholarship· to Rio Grande and that scholarship gave her hope and encouragement. Halley beat her cancer, it is in remission, and she is now excelling at Rio Grande. She is also thriving in her personal life, and last year she won the title of Ohio State Fair Queen. This year. she plans on entering the Miss Ohio USA pageant. Dorsey, in his remarks, told the Board of Regents how,Rio Grande offers a high-quality education at a very low price. In 1974, Rio Grande had an enrollment of slightly more than 700 students, Dorsey said. Enrollment . has ri sen consistently and last semester Rio Grande had more than 2,500 student s. "Rio Grande is all about education, but it is also about promoting se lf-esteem, tnstilling hope , and doing everythin g we can to help Ap{lalachians stay in the reg ton to live and work," Dorsey told the Board of Rege nt s. Rio Grande puts about $20 million directly into the local economy every year. Rio's facilities are used for a variety of community events such as wedding receptions and dinners, the college makes space for programs for high school stu dents and senior citizens and the college reaches out to non-traditional students. "At Rio Grande, students are not a number,". Dorsey said. " We care deeply abo\(t their success - today in the classroom and in the future. as well."

READER'S VIEW Information Why( Dear Editor: Over the last several weeks. I have read the stories concerning the issue of puhlishing tl)e Iist of Galli a County .delin· quent property taxes. I personally feel that given the current trend in the government budgets, it is not a realistic goal to publish the Iist in the newspaper. · Everyday. our local goy.ernrrie'nt's budgets are cut on every level. In turn, thi s means that certain services also have to be cut. The information in question has been made readily available to the ge neral public, The public can access the information via the Internet. or pick up copies at the courthouse. In a day when every home and local library have computers. what bener way to gather information . Al so, it is an antiquated ideal that by publishing the names of the individuals who have delinquent taxes that this would encourage them to pay their delinquent taxes. To expect a person to be 'let go or laid off' to cover the publishing expenses is also very one-sided thought. In an area with so few employment opportunities, why do away with a position that would accomplish so linle in the end. Sincerely, Even after the mass murders on September II , 200 I, some people still have troubling acce pting the fact that evi I is a fom1idable presence in thi s world. Thi s column will break down that resistance . There are hundreds of thousands of children the world over who arc -being sold into sexual slavery, and little is being done about it, even by the United States government. · I first encountered thi s story in 1991 when I traveleti to Ttiailand and bought an 11 -year-old girl for less than $200. The negotiation was captured on tape and reponed on the program I was then anchodng, ' Inside Edition.· On the streets of Bangkok, thou sands of youn g chi ldren are spld into prostitution . The pimps and brothel owners bribe police. and evil parents gave up their otl'spring for a pittance. The New York Times Sunday Magazine recently provided an update on this story and. according to its reporter. the sex slavery industry is now firmly embedded in the USA. In many cases, the children are smuggled · here through Mexico, where it is easy to bribe authorities. Once the border is reached, the children are shepherded across, and vans taf;e them to cities li ke Los Angeles and Bill O'Reilly Chi cago. Of course, crossing the border is easy. as our federal go vernment will not secure it. Some of these child sex sla ves are Mexicans, but some come from other poor countries. Sex traffickers funnel them into Mexico and introduce them to prostitu· tion using threats of violence and mayhem. You can imagine the fear and pain of a chi ld in thi s situation. It is unspeakable. The rise of the Internet has spurred the child sex slave industry. Kiduie porn is big bu siness. and pictures of horribly abu sed kids can now be accessed .by anyone with software . When evil and technology merge. the si tua tion becomes catastrophic. Enter the American justice system . Shamefully, in some cases, it is doing everything it nm to ' protect' people who brutalize and enslave children : Item: The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is representing the North Americ an Man-Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) pro bono itl a Massachusetts case. Item: Federal juu ge Denn is Chin denied the FB I a warrant in the notorious 'Cand yman' In terne t sting case. The feds bu sted a child porn Web site and secured the names of Americans who did business with it . They then asked various judges for warrants to search the homes anu computers of said individuals. Chin said no becau se he believeti one could do business with child pornographers and not commit a criminal act. Item: An American named Jorge Pabon Cruz distributed more than 8.000 pictures of children being raped, sex ually abused and brutalized during a three-month period in 200 I. Pabon Cruz advertised hi s < 1 si te on other Web site s " '1e of which was nam,J 'childrape.· Pabon Cruz trafficked in the vilest images imaginable, including pi ctu res of infants be ing raped. In October 2002. this monster was convicteu of advertising for the rece ipt , exchange and di stribution of chilti pornography aod sentenced to I0 years in a federal prison . That was amandatory sentence approved by a vote of Congress . But the pres iding fed eral judge in . New York City, Gerard · Lynch. publicly objected to the sentence, say ing he would have given Pabon Cruz just five years. Lynch, who was appointed · by President Clinton. as was Chin, made a bi g deal of this. Talk about sy mpathy for the devil' So recapping. Judges Chin and Lvnch witnessed the vilest acts adults can do to children short of murder. Yet these judges did not full y coo perate wi th a system trying to L.~r s hl y punish the adu lt s invol ved - adults who are literall y destroying the lives of defense less chil dren . Add to that the incredible actions of the ACLU, which · apparently bel ieves an organization devoted solely to encouraging pedophilia and legalizing sex between chil ~ dren and adults is entitled to a free defense. So the logical question is: Aren't these judges and this so-called 'civ il liberties' organization enabling 'evi l? To me the answer is obvious. Evil c'annot ex ist without human in vo lvement and cooperation . And fhere·s· plenty of that going around. · Ruby L Bond, 89. of Mason, W.Va. died Fnday. January , 3,0. 2004. in Overbrook .

'200.20 • Things are tense in our house. Our daughter is about to turn 4, which means we have to hold a birthday party, which means my wife is, at the moment, insane. Like many moms, my wife believes that a child's birth· day party requires as much planning as a lunar landing more, actually, because you have to hire a clown. Serious moms plan birthday parties months in advance, choosing a theme • Bob the 8uilder, Di sney Princesses, Snoop Doggy Dogg, etc. · apd relentlessly incorporatipg this theme in every element of the party, including invi· lations, decorations, music, games, craft projects, snacks, cake, entertainment, favors , little gift bags for the favors, ribbons for the little gift bag s for the favors, · name tags for the ribbons for the little gift bags for the favors , and on and on until the mom has lost all touch with human reality. If you want proof, go to one of the Internet sites d evoted to birthday planning, s u ~h as birthdaypartyideas.com. where moms report , in detail, the deranged lengths to which the y have go ne to stage birthday parties for small children. They sqund like thi s: 'Our theme for Meghan's third birthday was 'The Enshanted Fairy Forest.' To create a 'forest: in the family room, I made full-size 'trees' Dave Barry out of fiberglass, which I painted brown and festooned with 17,000 'leaves' I cut by hand from green felt, accent· ed with live squirrels that I caught using a galvanizedsteel trap baited wiih Peter Pan creamy peanut butter. For · the 'forest floor,' I brought in four tons of mulch with a Lawn Boy yard tractor. For the 'sky,· I used the actual sky. which wa s visible because I removed the ceiling and roof with a chainsaw, which is when my husband, Ed, left me, but the overall effect was well worth it. ' You think I'm exaggerating, but that's only because you haven't browsed birth· daypartyi!)eas,com. lt would be different. if dads planned birthday parties : First off, the party wo uld be about a month after the child's actual birth· da y. which Is when Dad woulil remember it. Dati's party theme would be 'deli v· ery pizza,' which would also se rve as the cake, the craft proj ect and the party favor. The entertainment would be pulling Dad's finger. The \ I kids wou ld ha ve just as much fun . But of course dad is not entrusted with birthdayparty planning. at least not in our house, where the entire massive burden falls on my wife, causing he,- to become increasingly unbalanced . Last year, our theme was 'The Wizard of Oz,' and my wife decided that, among many other touche s, we needed to transform our front walkway into a Yellow Brick Road by covering it with a roll of yellow plastic that she bought from the House of Really Slippery Surfaces. On the day of the party, it was raining, so I suggested that maybe, for safety, we should not do the Yellow Brick Road. Do you remember 'The Exorcist.' the part where Linda Blair's eyes get really weird and her head rotates 360 degrees'' That 's a mild version of ho w my wife reacted to the suggestion that we would not have a Yellow Brick Road. Her feelin g was, yes, there could be injurie s. even deaths, BUT WE WILL HAVE A YELLOW BRICK RQAD. And so we did. Our theme thi s year is 'The Little Mermaid.' My wife was happy about this until she found out th,at another girl in our daughter's preschool class was having a birthday party two months before our daughter's, and her theme was ALSO :The Death Notices RubyLBond Elizabeth Kelly Viii lOll • Little Mermaid. ' It's the kind of nightmare you think always happens to other people, but never to you. The other gi rl's parents are very nice people, but because they used my wife's theme, she viewed them as the. enemy. She feared that their party would be better than ours, and these fears . worsened when we got to the enemy house and discovered ·that the enemy mom had used a professional party planner, who had not only done serious undersea decorations involving gauze, but had also provided, for entertainment, a mermaid, a pirate .A:ND a sea goddess . ' A sea goddess'' my wife · said, and the despair in her voice was real. But she is not giving up. She spotted some weaknesses in the enemy party's game plan: For example, there was no clown . If yo u can imagine . My wife has located a clown that she believes will kick !he sea goddess's butt. My wife has other plans, which I will not reveal here, because you never know who cou ld be reading this. Suffice it to say that when the day comes, we'll be ready. For my part, I will do ex.,ctly as I am to rd. But if I hear a chain saw, I'm gone. I Da ve Barry is a ·humor columnist fo r the Miami Herald. Writ e to !Jim c/o The Miami He rald, One Herald Plaza.

Police said Friday the mm1 is the tirst person to claim responsibility for the string.of shootings. "We're taking it seriously," said Franklin County sheriff's Chief Deputy Steve Martin. "We're aggressively pursuing it." . The four 911 calls, about a minute long in total, were made about 2:30 p.m. Monday to Columbus police. Muftled and difficult to .hear, they include at least two disconnections. Police were investigating the female dispatcher who took the calls. saying she mishandled the situation by not appearing to take the calls seriously. Police allowed the emergency calls to be recorded but did not release a copy of the tape or a trnnscript. The caller identified himself as the highway shooter twice and also twice claimed to have shot a car on Interstate 71. Police have no reports of highway shootings Monday. The caller did nut mention any specific incident involved in the Interstate 270 shootings police have connected to the case. including the death of a passenger in November. A task force investigating the 20 shootings at cars. school buses and homes is trying to determine whether the caller is the gunman, Martin said. Franklin County sheriff's Chief Deputy Steve Martin told reporters at a news conference in Columbus, that someone for the firstlime called police claiming to be the highway shootings sniper. Atask force investigating the 20 shootings at cars, school buses and homes is trying to determine the validity of the call to Columbus police, Martin said. (AP) She also asked the caller to stay on the line while the call wa' tmced. The call ended soon after. TI1e dispatcher's use of words like "whatever" in response to his claims was inappropriate, said Columbus police spokeswoman Sherry Mercurio. "I don't \Vant people thinking that if they call in they're nor going to be taken seriously," she said. "If tl1ey tl1ink tlmt. no one's going to caU in with a tip that can solve this." Gail Knisley, 62, died Nov. 25 a' she rode in a car on Interstate 270 on the way to a doctor's appointment. No one else has been struck since the shootings began in May. No new sh<XJtings have been linked to the case since Jan. 22. A shot fined at a car on Interstate 71 , which intersects with the outerbelt, became the 20th shooting in the series. The driver said he thought the gunfire came from a highway overpass and he saw someone standing in shadows. Investigators have regularly asked the person responsible to call a phone tip line or contact authorities in writing. They set up a post office box for that purpose. · Martin said he didn't know why the caller used 911 instead of the tip line. More tl1an 3,800 people have called in tips on the case, and investigators are looking into numerous people named in the calls, Martin said. Local businesses are offering a $60,000 reward. j~ =-" · 2:} 2'} 2:} 2:} ' FREE PENSION ASSISTANCE! A W .. 1 I . • 1 1 a "'""'•" "'....,, """m'nt bonolii>, mg • I . . .

John Fox couldn't wait to get out of the room, his final pre-Super Bowl session with the media. · The coaches of the New England Patriots and Carolina Pan thers ~ nol a jovial, gregarious pair to begin with - were even more all-business than usual on Friday. With six days of questions from the media mob in Houston finally at an end, the teams retreaied to complete preparations for Sunday's kickoff in relative calm. With a New England victory on Sunday. Beli<:hick would joi n an elite group of coaches whose teams had won more than one Super Bowl. If il happens, Belichick might think about i!. "Righi now I don't think this is any time for retlection on anything," he said. "I think this is time for performance. This is the biggest game of the year." Fox lefr the podium eight minutes into what was supposed to be a 30-minute session. There seemed 10 be no more questions. If there were, the Caroli1ia coach wasn't about to stick around lo hear them. Belichick 's Patriots. on a 14-game winning streak, are seven-point' favorites to win their second Super Bow l in three seasons. Fox took the Panthers to their first Super Bowl in his second season after inheriting a 1- 15 squad; At lheir news conferences. the coaches stood neJit to the.Lombardi Trophy, to be presented to Sunday's champion. · ¥[ think what that stands for is 1he team that played the most consistent, toughest, smartesl football for that season," Belichick said. Fox remembered what he lhought when the Ravens won the trophy in 200 I, while he was defensive coordinalor for the New Ygrk Giants. "Some day I'd like to find oul wfiat it's like to get" there." he said. The day before each game, Fox has someone deli ver a motivational talk to the players.

On Sunday, it is very possible Seymour will have more impact on who wins the NFL championship than any other Patriot. On Thursday, !hough, he was hardly an attraction . The same can be said for many of his teammates and most of the Carolina Panthers. Most casual football fans will have no idea who thef re watching on TV. Hey, even the stars on these teams barely sparkle compared to the Sapps and Keyshawns and Rices and Woodsons who populaled last year's Super Bowl. "I listen to some of the stuff on TV and it says, 'This team doesn't have a lot of superstars, but they ha ve a lot of good players,'' said the Patriots' Willie McGinest, a Pro Bowl end/linebacker. "I don't understand what qualifies as a superstar. We have a Super Bowl MVP on our team. We have guys going to the ·Pro Bowl. We have guys that have been playing well. What's a superstar if you can't go to the big game?" · Rarely have. two conference champi?ns been more team-oriented than the Patnots and, Panthers. "Guys can self-promote all . they want," McOinest said. "lf they're at home at the end of the season watching, what good is that? We' re all about team here. Maybe the team concept isn't that popular in the league, but it works for us." . Sure does. The Patriots are just the second team to win 14 straighl .games in one season, joining the undefeated 1972 Dolphins. Yet only Seymour and Rodney Harrison are All-Pros. They didn't have a rusher in the top dozen of the APC. or a receiver in the top 20. Their top sack man, Mike Vmbel, wasn't m· the top 15 in the league. • ' ( 1 ' r ouston plays host thrs ye"a"i lo Super Bowl XXXVIII , its first since Super Bowl VI lim 1974. The Feb . 1 game w1!! be held at Reliant Stadium·, opened in 2002, wh1ch lies next to the venerable Astrodome. The stadium is the largesl in lhe NFL o and was designed fll play host to rodeo as well as football. . m the speaker is a mys1ery. "I don't really let \hat out, who it's going to be," he said. "In· fact, I even play little games to keep it away from the players." He ruled out linebacker Mark Fields and linebackers coach Sam Mills, who both are h~hting cancer. "It won 't be Mark or Sam because they've already done it before this year," Fox said. "They' ll both be there, and obviously they ' re an inspiration to the whole football team. But it will be somebody else." Belichick was glad to have two weeks between the conference championship and the Super BowL · "I t~ink we're ready to go," he said. "Certainly there's a lot !O get ready for. Carolina has an extensive scheme, and they're very good at what they do." New England's defense shut down the prolific passing game of Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Coils in the AFC championship game. Now the Patriots face an offense that could hardly be more different - one that pounds away with running backs stephen Davis and DeShaun Foster, to set up big passing plays for Jake Delhomme. ' 'The backs are productive and lhey're efficient," Belichick said. "But th is has been a big passing game all year, with the decision-making that Jak'e has, the ability to throw the ball downfield." With a tough defense, especially along the line, Carolina's plan is to keep the score low, and chew up time on offense. "We want to be able to develop a running game, make you commit extra people to that running game, so we can do the second part that coach Belichick said, and that's hit you with big plays,'' Fox said. "And I think that's probably the image we' re trying to be." BelichiCk's reputation is that of a defensive genius, orte that can shut down any offense.

A dual purpose roof ' more than $12 million in 2005. a hefty price even for a guy who was selected to his fourth Pro Bowl this year- three in a row. The normal NFL solution would be 10 renegotiale the contract, giving Law more cash up front in exchange for adding years on the back end, but the Patriots have shown they can take a hard line on such things. Five days before this season's opener, coach Bill Belichick made s<i'fety Lawyer Milloy a salary cap casualty and released him over what was reportedly a difference of $600,000. Milloy signed with Buffalo - for more money than the Patriots offered, in fact - and in the first game led the Bills to a 31-0 victory over New England. Law (umed over the loss of his friend and fellow defensive captain. Then, he realized fuming wouldn 'I get him anywhere. "We have a pretty prideful.. group here and that Buffalo game was an embarrassment tQ all of us," Law said. "It was like, 'You know what: We' re still football players.

The Panthers, who toil in the heart of NASCAR country, are often overlooked in their oWn state. Being just down Tobacco Road from Carolina's college basketball mecca doesn't help, either.

Whools Sunday,Februaryt,2004 Bv BRIAN J. REED BREED@MYDAILYSENTI NEL.COM ' MIDDLEPORT Sam Soward s is certain of one thing: Tat tooing is a form "of arti stic expression as sure as painting and scu lpiLJre are, and this veteran of the fie ld is happy to see it inneasingly recogni1ed that way. " If Vincent Van Qogh were alive today, he would probably be workin g in a tattoo shop in New York City or somewhere,"" Sowards said. The rece ntl y-e lected Mayor of Vinton is a local pioneer of the tattoo trade and art form . Hi s Middleport shop. Body Fantasies, is con sidered the oldest shop of its kind anywhere 011 the Ohio River, as well as the oldest in the tri -state area. .After I 5 years in the trade, Sowards has seen the reputa tion of the art form and those who adm ire it change dramatica lly. Tattooin g, which was once consiqered a sy mbol of the rebel and the outlaw, is now respected at all soc ial and economi c leve ls. Sowards knows that, hecause he and the artists who work for him have seen the face of tattooing change ~ literally. "' In the old days. tattooists were self-educated and selftrained, and like most of their client s. they were ex-military. bikers or ctiminals."" Sowands said. ""No~;. a lot· of tattoo :utists are college eJucated in the art tield, and cliei1ts include lawyers, teache rs, business owners and other professionals - even members of the ministerial community. . 'T vc done work on several pastors . and- the"ir . families," Sowards said. Sowards and. his wife, Rhonda, are Christians, and he has studied the scriptures for references to tattoos. He is not convinced of any Biblical prohibition against tattoos. "We're not here to cover God's heauty," Soward~ said. ;'We are only. here to enhaf.lce it." If skeptics need further proof of the growing acceptance of tattoos, they should consider the growth potential of Sowards' landmark shop. It's difticult , these days, for virtually any bu siness to thrive in small commun ities, and Middleport is no exception. But unlike most Middleport busi ness ow ners, Sowards has seen, and contin ues to see, a steady increase in traffic and in prof it. "This bu siness has seen a steady growth of about I 0 percent every year for the past I 5 years," Sowards said. "This is one of the few busi nesses open 15. years ago to have survived." "A lot of businesses have come and gone, but we've been able to stay in business." "I don't think it' s going away," Sowards said. "I don't see a decline in its populwity. Many of the new artists who are coming into the field have new vision, and anything that can he dupliCated can now . be transferred onto the skin as a tattoo." The "new ' school" approach to the >tncient art of tattooing is partly to account for its relatively new widespre>td appeal. But popul-ar cu lture aside, what's the attraction'! Why would anyone even consider a permanent brand on their body'' Sowards sa id it all come s down to se lf expression, and although many peopl e have tattoos that will likely re main covered most of the time, others see their tattoo almost as a window to the soul , a means of sharing the things most important to them, with others. "A tattoo is a means of ex pression for most people who have one, and they're deeply meaningful," Soward~ said. "A tattoo can he a subtle hint or serve as a bold statement about your ow n personaJc ity. It can he hidden completely, or shared with the world." "It's also the only thing you can buy which is truly permanent. Even a Rolls Royce only has a 10-year warranty." Sowards considers wildlife de signs and portrait-style tattoos t.o be his specialties. Modern technology allows Brian Johnson, pictured app lying a tattoo for Jam1e Parson s of New Have n, W.Va., specializes in f1ne-line and tribal designs at him to transfer photographs Body Fantas ies in Middleport . (Brian J. Reed) · and other portraits onto the skin, and create a tattoo that is partiwlarly meaningful. "They are a very slow process in terms of creation," Sowards said. "While it's easy to copy a photo, it's very difficu lt to re-create the sparkle in someone 's eye, or the curvature ofsomeone's mouth." ·· ···· Each of Sowards' contract artists also has Iiis own area of expertise. Brian Johnson is considered the shop expert in tine line and tribal designs, while John Holsingeds better known for "new school" work, using bold lines, and bright colors- "old style with a new · twist," Sowards said. Sowands' wife, Rhonda, is an artist too. But instead of a tattoo gun, she uses a piercing needle. Body piercing has, in recent years, become a perfectly complimentary sideline business for tattoo shops, and Rhonda has her own league of loyal customers who often find out that one piercing is not enough. She also serves the shop as manager, a "general lion tamer" who coordinates the business activity while her hu sband is away on one of his other professional pursuits. Along with fellow Body Fantasi es pi ercers. Caleb "Buddha" Ellis and Daniel Redmond, she offers yet another alternative in selfadornment.

As some of these "characters" passed hi s store, he would invite them in to sit before the camera. Some of these photos were submitted to photo conte sts around the country. Over the years, we have acquired a few of these photos from Max. One that we greatly treasure is the picture of James CampbelL He was an 84-year-old man when the photo was taken. James was born into slavery on Jan. 15, 1852. He died in Gallipolis in the fall of 1938. He had been a resident of the Old French City for · about 73 years. His birthplace was an· the Alexander Plantation in Monroe County, Va., which is now a part of West Virginia. The Alexander Plantation was just outside of Union, which was then the county seat There were about 20 slaves on this plantation, which is only a few miles from the Virginia line. James' parents were Levi and Dinnah Alexander CampbelL Siblings of James included Floyd, Henry, Noah, Nancy and Levi, some of whom became Gallipolis residents also. In 1937, Jim Campbell was interviewed for a book entitled, "Ohio Slave Narratives," a copy of which can be found in the Samual · Bossard Memorial Library. In that interview, Campbell told about how the master of the plantation, called by James, "Master John" was generally a good man. Young James ' family lived in a log of .Gallipolis' · cabin and he slept in a trundle bed. He had to get up every morning at 4 in order to milk the cows. Jim was also in charge of the berry picking during the summer time. All the male slaves wore jean pants and jean coats. They had plenty of good things to eat, mchkling beans, com, melons, hot mush and cornbread. His father killed · the meat and that included wild turkey, pheasant, rabbit, and tlsh. One of his favorite times came when it was maple sugar makin' time. All he could think about as they labored to bring in this delicacy was "lasses" over hiscuits with ham. At Christmas time, the family got a two week break from some chores. They would cut enough firewood to last through the two weeks before Christmas so that they could have the dances and Sunday school meetings. The only special treats at Christmas for slaves were firecrackers and brandy. James said he had never seen money until he came to Ohio after the Civil War. None of the Campbell family could read or write. although James was later educated in Gallipolis. James reports about a few people who escaped from the plantation. Some ,were not caught and some were. When --they were caught. they were given a terrible beating. No slaves were allowed out of the cabin at night. Some slipped away on occasion to take a short walk or a ride. When the master caught them, they were made to eat the 'heads of tobacco worms. Campbell told the story about how one of Master John's sons was recruited into the army. He was at · Harpers Ferry and got so shook up, he ran all the way home. He made himself a crutch and pretended to be wounded until the war was over. "The happiest time of my life was when Captain Tipton, a Yankee soldier, came and told us that the war , was over and we were free. We sure didn 't Jose any time gittin' 'way, no man. We went to Lewisburg and then to Charleston by wagon and then took the government boat. General Crooks , and that brought us to Gallipolis in 1865. That Ohio shore sure looked pretty. I was so grateful to Mr. Lincoln for what he done for us folks but that Jefferson Davis. well , I ain't saying what I was _thinking about him . That's just like the world. There is lots or good and Jots of bad in it." In another publication. Campbell told about how when they arrived at Gallipolis in 1865. men were just fini shing work on the Dufour House HoteL later Riverview Hotel: that was at the corner of First Avenue and State Street "Mammy had us stop and watch the work." In his early years 111 Gallipoli s, Campbell worked on various steamboats. He later was janitor and handyman for the Ohio Electric Company 's office in the Opera House build ing. He finally retired at age 87.just a few months befQre hi s passmg . Campbell's home was near the golf course entrance. It was hi s great pl easu re to greet the golfers by l)ame as they passed hi s re'siclence. "Uncle Jim," as he came to be called. was married four times, but had no children . Don't come up short in your retirement savings If you're like many peop)e, you may not like participating in surveys, but you're curious about the results, particularly those that contain illuminating information. For example, if you're concerned about savmg for retirement, you may be quite interested in some of the findings from _the Employees Benefit Research lnstttute's 2003 "Retirement Confidence Survey." • Fewer than four in ten workers say they have calculated how mucll money they will need to have saved by the time they retire. • Three in 10 workers say they have not saved for retirement. • About 33 percent of workers are not confident about having enough money to live comfortably throughout their retirement years. Unless you're involved in making public policy, the overall impact of these .statistics may have little impact on you. •• But if any of these numbers are telling your story. then you've gQt something to think about What do you want to do when you retire? Travel around the world? Buy a vacation home? Open a small business? Whatever your goals are, you'll have a better chance of achieving them if you know how much they'll cost Until and unless you've done this, you won't know how much you need to save and what mvestment strategies can helP. produce those savings. Don t be one of the four-in·IO who haven't done the necessary "number crunching." Boost rour savings . If you re one of the t~ree· tn·IO workers who etther haven't saved anything for retirement or just haven't saved enough to feel confident about your savings, you need to take action - n~bt away. But even if you re among the two-thirds of workers who have saved · something and feel pretty good about what they've--' done, you can almost certainly benefit by boosting your retirement savings. Here are a few ideas for dorng just that: • Contribute as much as you can toyour401(k), If you've got a 401(k) or other tax-advantage retirement plan at work, put m as much as ·you can afford. If you're self-employed, open up a SEP·IRA or other suitable plan. • "Max out" on your IRA. Each year, put in the maxi· mum amount to your tradi· tiona! or Roth IRA. For 2004, you can put in up to $3,000 to your IRA, or $3,500 if you're 50 or older. • In vest for growth. The farther you are away from retirement, the more you can afford to be aggressive. Still, your growth stocks will need to be a part of a diversified portfo· lio that reflects your nsk tolerance, your time horizon and April Rice . your long-term goals. BX determining how much you Uneed for retirement, and by mcreasing your savings and investments, you can greatly enhance your prospects for enjoying the type of retirement lifestyle you've envisioned. Plus, the next time you see a retirement confidence survey, you can relax. Savannah still in spotlight 10 years after Exploring Washington's (dental) record 'Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil' George Washington to· me ; caricatures' facial expressions SAVANNAH , Ga. (AP) -· Locals simply refer to it as "The Book." It had been on store shelves less than three months in 1994 when Trese . Newman got her first clue that things were going to qe different in Savannah. Bonaventure Cemetery had removed The Bird Girl, the bronze statue on the cover of John Berendt's new book "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evi L" ' to spare the surrounding plot from, touri sts' trampling feet "When you have to start removing a statue that had been in the cemetery since 1938, you reali ze something's going on," Newman said from behind -the register at The Book Gift Shop, where autographed copies of "Midnight" continue to sell alongside Bird Girl mugs, hand creams and canned jams. A decade has passed since Berendt, a New York magazine writer. published "Midnight" with its gossipy tales of a murder. a drag queen and voodoo rituals that many Savannahians doubted outsiders would ever read. Since its debut in January 1994, Berendt's book has sold 3.3 million copies and . spent 2 16 weeks on The New York Times list of best sellers. H Savannahians · were surpri sed, so was the author. ''When I was asked how will it sell , I said, 'Look, this is not a mainstream lxlok,"' Berendt said in an interview with The Associated Press. "Look at what's in it ... the drag queen, . the gay murder, you name it h was not what · mainstream Americans are used to. What I guess happened was that the mainstrean1 widened while I was wri ling the book." In his huge ly popular book, Berendt tells the story of Jim Williams , a restoration specialist and antiques dealer who shoots and kills his love r, Danny Hansford. Although the murder and Williams· arrest and subsequent four trials shape the book 's primary theme, it is the unfolding of Savannah's quirky residents and lore that brings the book to life . The spotlight that the book shined through Savannah's canopy of live oaks and Spanish moss turned this once-sleepy coastal city into a tourism dynamo. "When I was talking to the folks who hired me, I said, 'I don't know if you need me or just·another John'Berendt,"' said Anthony Schopp, president of the Savannah Area Convention and Visitors Bureau.

''Your heart works as hard as you do. ' Savannah mostly attracted day-trippers who swung through to see the city's parklike squares, marble monuments and antebellum homes. Afterward, when copies of the book became as much a travel accessory as. sunscreen, tourists swarmed in from around the world. Overnight stays by visitors skyrocketed from 3.5 mil)ion in 1994 to I0.5 million in 2002, the latest figures available. The estimated amount of money spent by visitors to Savannah leaped from $587 million to $1.07 billion during the same period. Schopp 'says a robust economy ancj tourism growth across the South in the mid-1990s he Iped spur the boom. But "Midnight," the book and the 1997 movie version directed by Clint Eastwood, gave Savannah confidence to invest in tourism as serious business. New hotels opened downtown. The grand Marshall House Hotel, built in 1857, reopened in 1999 after being shuttered for 40 years. Vacant historic district storefronts gave way to chain stores such 'as Starbucks and the Gap. 'There are neighborhoods you can travel into now safely because there are restored buildings instead of abandoned buildings," said Mark McDonald, executive director of the Historic Savannah Foundation.' "Much of the heavy lifting had been done already. But when the lxlok carne out, it just put an exponent beside it" Downtown real-estate broker DiCkie Mapper recalled a flight from London about five years ago. On the phme was a group of British tourists, headed tor Savannah. Each one carried a copy of "Midnight." "The book did a tremendous amount to promote the city as a tourist destination and that had a lot to do with people falling in love with Savannah and say ing, 'This is a place I want to invest,"' Mapper said. Though housing prices in historic Savannah soared over the past decade - 19thcentury homes that sold for $250,000 then now fetch more than $1 million Mapper said the book had only a "nominal" influence. "Midnight" fandom failed to sell the famous Mercer House for an asking price of $7 million when it went on the market a few years ago. The Vicrorian mansion was the home of Williams, who died of pneumonia in 1990 at age 59. .

"Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo" · and Lord knows·. that's long overdue. But at 93 minutes, the ·movie actually is more like an extended infomercial ·for B2K, the recently split fab four of R&B , as written and directed by the group's lnanager, Christopher B. Stokes. The boys of B2K - Omari "Omarion" Gran~berry, Jarell "J-Boog" Houston, DeMario "Raz-B" Thornton and Dreux "Li l' Fizz" Frederic - appear as members of a Los Angeles street dance crew that battles other groups for money, pride and (most importantly) bragging rights. The dancing is, admittedly, pretty spectacular - a jawdropping combination of hip· hop moves, old-school breakdancing, . cheerleading pyramids and down-a nd-dirty trash talk. But it's pretty much the same stuff you'd see if you devoted an hour and a half each day to watching videos on "106 and Park," BET's version of MTV's "Total Request Live" - where, by the way, B2K's "Badaboom," off the "You Got Served" soundtrack, is hovering at the No. I spot on the countdown. B2K devotees, who probably do watch videos each day on "I 06 and Park," wi II bother spending the time and money o_n this in the theater. For everyone else who's dragged along, the dancing will make the movie tolerable. But when Stokes steps away and tries to develop a plot, he comes up with cliches. David (Grandberry), his best friend, Elgin (Marques Houston of the R&B group IMX, who's Grandberry's brother), and their buddies must prove themselves when they receive a challenge from a group of white-boy dancers from Or.ange County who've stolen their moves. (Sound familiar? This was the plot of "Bring It On," about white-girl cheerleaders who stole their moves from ;m inner-city high school's squad.) Just when their bond should be strongest, David and Elgin start fighting over David's blossoming relationship with Elgin's younger sister, Liyah (the gorgeous Jennifer Freeman). But here's what finally destroys their friendship: While reluctantly running an errand for street thu¥, Emerald (Michael "Bear ' Taliferro, a sort of urban Don Corleone), Elgin is jumped and the money he was carry- Keeping Gallia · and ing is stolen. David wasn't there to help him like he was supposed to be because he was too busy making googly eyes at Liyah over french fries and milkshakes. You know these two buddies will reconcile at the end, just in time fdr The Bi g Bounce - not to be confused with the movie "The Big Bounce," based on the Elmore Leonard book , which is also opening this week. No, thi s big bounce is a $50,000 street dance competition, with the winning group going on to perform in a Lil' Kim video. Apparently these kids have no JObs or school to attend, because they have all day to practice. But even if they didn't bother fine-tuning their moves, you know from having seen 'The Bad News Bears."

There's more sound insula. tion, to reduce noi se insid·e the car. and stereo speakers are upgraded for better sound . Additionally, so me · features have been made standard on some Civic models .' Pricing remains affordable in Honda's lowest-priced . vehicle. Starting rpanufactur. er's suggested retail price, including de stination charge; is $13,900 for a Civic coupe and $13,500 for a 2004 Civic sedan. There's . even a gasolineelectric Civic Hybrid sedan which starts at $20; 140. the test car was an uplevel. gasoline-powered, EX co upe priced at $18,400. Coupes account for about 25 percent of the approximately 300,000 new· Civics so ld annually, ac.cording to Honda spokesman Andy Boyd. But buyers of the Civic coupe are noteworthy in the - auto industry because their med ian age is just 34. Auto industry officials increasingly are seeking ways to attract the large numbers of Gener,ation X and Y Americans joining 'the ranks of new car buyers each year. The Civic tester co mbined Honda's typically clean, uncluttered styling with a new -for-2 004, bnght Fiji Blue Pearl . paint job. It looked like a deep royal blue, a color you don 't see often on the road. The two-do6r car sat low to the grouhd. I had to drop down into the form-fitting and well-bolstered driver seat as I got inside. Note : there's no way for a ·Civic driver to see around and beyond minivans, sport utilities and trucKs. The . Civic coupe's main three gauges are eye-catching and jazzy at night. The brrght red needle s in the gauges seem to glow, and each gauge is surrounded by bright red circles. Knobs and buttons on the. Civic dashboard are goodsized and easy to reach. Even the latch Jhat opens the glovebox is easily reached by· the driver. I liked that the two cupholders in the Civic Center console can be covered by a black pla_st ic door when not m use. Th1s allows the storage of small items out of v1ew. · The sporty front-seat head restraints·, which have a cutout open space in the middle, provide an airy feel, especially for back-seat riders who sit by windows ·that don't open. Al so, these riders' heads rest under the rear window glass, and having thr~e passengers in the back would be a very close fit. Civics are offered with se veral versions of fourcyli_nder engines. The test ·coupe had the 1:7-liter, single overhead cam, in line four cylinder with .Honda's variable valve timing or VTEC. It generates a maximum · 127 . horsepower . and 114 foot-pounds of torque at 4,800 rpm, enough to mak~ thi s 2,500-poun[l car move sprightly down the road. The five-speed manual shifter and clutch pedal in the Civic test car didn't need a lot of force to operate. There were muted shock ·points in the shifter, and there was a satisfying feel in moving · through the Civic's gears. Acceleration was brisk the car was peppy enough / . that I could . dart around stopped traffic easily. Yet , fuel economy for this EX coupe is. commendable at 32 miles per gallon in the city. and 37 mpg on the higl11vay. But I coold readily hear the engine just about all the time. Road noise seem~d to overtake the engine noise once I got close to highway speeds. Civics also are available with automatic tran , missions. Competitors to the Civic line include the 2004 Ford · Focus. Its three-door ZX3 can be had with a 130-horsepower four cylinder with 135 foot-pound s of torque , at 4,5QO rpm and .a 145-horsepower four cylinder with maximum 149 foot -pounds of torque at 4,250 rpm. Another competitor, th e Saturn Ion coupe , can be had with a' 140-horsepower four cylinder capable of'generating 145. foot-pounds of torque at 4,400 rpm.

The windows passed with flying colors. Jeld-Wen did celebrate one failure -- the wood flunked the taste test of local Formosan termite s, among the largest and hungriest in the world. Hart says the culinary rejection should open up termite-plagued · southern U.S. markets for these windows where choices had been limited to metal or vinyl products. Exp~nsion of damp wood was a bugaboo for windows; wood swells faster than paint, a chief c;wse .of cracking and blistering. This . co mpletely impregnated wood , ·won' t swell, effectively creating a more stable Slllface ready to he clad with aluminum, painted or stained. Reduced maintenance will . be a. relief Jor many homeowners. . Jeld-Wen is introducing the AuraLast wood to a high-end line of windows. the Pozzi Custom Collection.

For homeowners, the outcome is a window that looks like woOd and acts like woOd but wears like iron. And that's just the way Hart and JeldWen want it. "Homeowners want the look of wood," ~ays Hart, "and now they can get good looking windows that are a lot lower maintenance." , Wood windows may ·look great, but appearances come at a price. . · Even with constant maintenance, relentless moisture causes wood to swell and burst the protective seal of paint. This leads to rot, to say nothing of ravenous ·insects that _. treat soft wood as a food -: trough. · - Well • that's about to chanoe 0 • for homeowners who covet : the look of wood but not the :: headaches. In an earth-friendly twist to the old idea that treated wood withstands the elements, window maker Jeld-Wen has rolled out a lower-maintenance wood window that is rocking the world of windows. The Oregon company subjects solid western pine to an organic water~based substance with the trade name AuraLast - that yields a • wood impervious to water and unpalatable to · termttes and :- other wood-munchin~ insects. "We had to convmce ourselves this stuff was for real ," says Ken Hart,Jeld- ~en product development manager. "Consumers will get a lower maintenance product that will be around for .20 years.
