He is very hard on my 12-year-old dau~hter from a previous marriage, "Natalie.' Joe is very strict in disciplining her, to the point of being unreasonable. It has become so bad that Natalie says she hates him and wants to leave him. My two older children, who no longer live with us, feel the same war, about Joe. Even my "strict ' father is unhappy with the way Joe treats Natalie. If I honestly thought he loved my daughter and was ljcting out of love, I might feel differently. However, he has made it clear he dislikes ALL my children - with a long list of "reasons." I told Joe my children are my No. I priority, and if anyone in my life IS a variable, it's him. He finally admitted he's jealmls of Natalie and the time we spend together. As unhappy as I am with Joe's behavior, I'm afraid if I give in to Natalie's request that I leave him, she may try 10 manipulate me in other ways. Please help me fmd a solution. - MISSISSIPPI WIFE AND MOM DEAR WIFE AND Dear Abby ADVICE MOM: f'or your husband to take out his jealousy and resentment of your parental duties on your daughter is deplorable. While I don ' t think that a 12-year- old should dictate with whom a parent spends his or her life, m this case, your daughter may have a point. .However, before_you make any decisions, I urge you, Joe and Natalie to get family counseling to see if his jealousy can be worked out. If it can't, then a separation until your daughter is 18 may be in order. DEAR ABBY: For the past nine months, I have been secretly married to a man of whom my family does not approve. I have been able to keep them in the dark because I am a student and live in another state. I'm 33 years old, Abby, and, knowing the problems it will cause, I need some tips on how to tell my I NOT A family. Help! CHILD IN ILLINOIS DEAR NOT A CHILD: I ·agree that at 33, you are not a child; you are an adult who has made an important decision. While it would be nice if your family approved of your choice of life part,ners, one of the basic premises of marriage is that you are forming a family unit of your own. Call your parents and relatives and share the "good news" with them. How they react will be their problem. Please don't continue to make it yours. DEAR ABBY: In a recent column, a reader shared-- a humorous experience about her smoke alarm going off. She regarded it as a "sign" from her deceased father that he was OK. · My beloved husband, Frank, was blind from diabetes when he died. He had owned a "talking watch." Since it had been such an important part of his daily life, it was on his wrist for the funeral - with the voice and alarm turned off. The minister who officiated at Frank 's service began "preaching" instead of fondly remembering my late husband's life, and right smack in the middle of the sermon, somehow my husband's watch alarm went off!

Residents of the municipality have until 7:30 this evening to vote in a special election to decide whether to dissolve village government. The call for the election came in reaction to American Electric Power's purchase of most of the town 's property in April 2002 for $20 million. . Cheshire United Methodist Church on Ohio Route 7 is the polling place for today's election. Cheshire officials were advised· by the state auditor's office to conduct the special election in light of the fact that about 90 percent of the villa~e·s population will be movmg out after closing sales with AEP. According to unofficial estimates, it's believed that between 15 and 20 residents will remain within village limits after all transactions·are complete. .

Signs calling for a "no" heshire vote in today's election have dotted roadways throughout the village and surrounding areas. In particular, a sign outside Hair and Expectations Tanning Salon located on Ohio Route 554 in Cheshire clearly states management's stand on today's election in large print: "We are staying."

Jimmy Stewart has received his· first committee assigrunents from House Speaker Larry Householder. Stewart, who will represent Mei~s County as part of tile new 92nd Ohio House District, will take his place as a member of the finance and appropriations committee. Stewart said this is a rare honor for freshman members of the House, and he hopes to use the position to serve the people of his district and southern Ohio to the best of his ability. · The Athens Republican will serve as the vice chair for the blgher education subcommittee of the finance and appropriations committee. This sub-. committee is respOnsible for makin~ budget recommendations for state urn- versltles such as Ohio University and the University of RioGmnde. "T see this as a great opportu~ty to use my expenence and education to work for the district," Stewart said. Gov. Bob Taft has Stewart proposed reinstating a 6 percent tuition cap for Ohio's state supponed colleges and universities. Without the ability to raise tuition prices . to meet increasing costs and fmancial priorities, higher education could face funding constraints because a tuition cap will force many institutions to watch their spending. A predicted state budget shortfall of about $720 million will make this task even more difficult. Failure to enact proposed higher taxes would force deep cuts in pril'l1al)', secondary and higher education. "The finances for higher education this year in particular is of high importance because of the budget situation," Stewart said. Taft is proposing sever..! cuts, including freezing Medicaid reimbursement rates for more than 1,000 nursing homes, hospitals and in-service providers. This could have a dramatic effect on southern Ohio, which has a high percentage of senior citizens. Local government funding can expect a minimum of a 2.5 percent cut, which will have a direct impact on counties already facing tough economic choices. , There are several tax increases proposed, including raising taxes on gasoline, alcohol and cigarettes. The legisla- ture must approve and balance the budget by June 30. Stewart said he will carefully consider the impact Taft's proposals will have on southern Ohio. ''The state is facing a very serious budget shortfall," he said. "I want to rriake sure we deal with this issue in a way that will not harm services in southeast Ohio..That's what I'm pushing for." Stewart will be placed on the Homeland Security Committee. He is already the primary sponsor of House Bill 6 which details the state and local response to a bioterrrirism attack. Stewart will also serve on the Economic Development Committee, which assists small busi ness development, and the Financial Institutions, St:eurities and Pensions Committee, which deals with banking and financial institutions as well as pension funds.

Today, Ohio fac!ls a Taft $720 million hole in its current bud~et that it must fill before passing Taft s next two-year budget. The state's ~roblem figuring out how much money It would have mirrors the difficulty all states are having, said national analysts of state government spending. More than 33 states missed their estimates of how much money would come in this year, accordin~ to a report due Tuesday from the Natmnal Conference of State Legislatures. · A year ago, national economists predicted a rebound by December despite the slowdown at the time, said Arturo Perez, who tracks fiscal issues for NCSL. ''That rebound did not occur," Perez said. Though most states tried to keep their predictions conservative, "the answer kept shifting on them for the worst," satd Nick Jenny, senior policy analyst for the Nelson A. Rockefeller Institute of Government in Albany, New York. "You can say, 'Why didn't you know better six months ago?"' Jenny said. "But essentially nobody did." Hagan said Monday he has no regrets that his predictions fell on deaf ears: he lost by 20 percentage points in November. "Unfortunately for Taft now, he ran for re-election saying he didn't have any problems," said Hagan, now a consultant to nonprofit foundations. Several Republican lawmakers say they want Taft to cut more out of state government before raising taxes. They also guestion whether the $720 million deficit is accurate. · "We are going to show you that $720 million is at best inaccurate and at worst, just wrong," said Republican Rep. Timothy Grendell of Chesterland. A well-written cover letter is important when searching for a job.

Although you retired from your regular -job in September, you might decide to return to work. Maybe you'll take on an extra job during the holidays. Who knows?

Answer: She sure wilL She'll get half of your benefit, but it won't reduce your payments. In other words, if you qualify for $1,000 per month from Social Security, she'll get $500 monthly, giving you a con'l· bined income of $1 ,500 per month . And if she doesn't already have it, she'll get Medicare on your record, too.

Answer: Your friend heard only pai't of the story. Generally, you're allowed to earn as much as you can, with no impact on your benefits, during the fitgt nine months you work. Those rline nionths don't have to I~ consecutive. But after that, we must stop your disability checks if you're doing "stili· stantial" work.

Dennis Kucinich asked nuclear reguhitors Monday to take away the authority of FirstEnergy . Corp. to operate an Ohio nuclear plant damaged by. an acid leak. His petition filed with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission accuses FirstEnergy of admittedly operating the Davis-Besse plant in violation of NRC rules, failing to observe safety standards and withholding information so it could continue operating the plant, despite unsafe conditions. FirstEnergy spokesman Richard Wilkins said the claims made in the petition go too far. "There are a number of inaccuracies in it and it draws an erroneous conclusion," Wilkins said. "From the beginning of this situation, we have taken responsibility for what happened here and we've been forthright about the mistakes at the plant." The demand by Kucinich, D-Ohio, comes after the agency's inspector general issued a report · accusing the NRC of allowing the plant to continue operating, despite strong evidence that it could have cracks in its reactor head, because it didn't want to hurt . the plant owner financially. NRC Chairman Richard Meserve has said officials made the right decisions based on available information. The nuclear plant near Toledo has been shut down si nce February 2002, when it was closed for maintenance.

The governor's record $49 .I billion budget, introduced Monday, raises almost $3 billion in taxes, another $96 inillion in fees, and saves another $1 billion through Medicaid cuts. Total: more than $4 billion. Neither Taft nor his budget director Tom .Johnson said they were hiding anything in the campaifn. Instead, their budget was a victim o a bad economy that kept getting worse, they said. "If you ask 10 people in my position what was the gap, or the hole, or the shortfall, they would come up with I 0 different answers," said Johnson. "We didn't think it was even worth the effort to project what the deficit would be last summer or last fall," Taft Births TIME OUT FOR TIPS plant wouldn't be working. Mason Evans, an attorney with FirstEnergy, said the plant is in compliance with its permits and the wolk did not iitcrease generaling capacity. ''The work did not cause or result in an emission incteaoie," Evans said. The government said pollution from plants in the Midwest and South winds up in Northeastern states, where it causes acid rain, smog and health problemS such as respiratory and heart problems.

If so, your child may qualify for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) disability benefits if your familt has little income and doesn t own a lot of things. We consider a child to be disabled if he or she has a physical or mental conditio! (or a combination of condi · tions) that can be confumed by medical · evidence. The conditions must cause noticeable and severe limitations on the child's ability to function, and must be expected to last at least 12 months or to result in death. Yqo can help us q~ake a decision about your child's disability by giving us as much information as possible at the time you apply.We will ask you for the names and address of doctors, therapists, counselors and other professionals who can tell us about your child's condition. It is also important, if possible, for you to provide the dates of medical treatment and any identifying information that will .help us get your child's medical records. Your child also has to meet the financial limits in order to get SSI. For children under 18, we count some of the parent(s)' income as well as the value of things the parents own. The amount that we count may affect whether your child . can get SSI and how much. But don't let con" cems about your family situation keep you from filing an apP.Iication on behalf of your child. You may find that SSI is definitely in your child's future. The booklet, Benefits for Children With Disabilities, provides more details about the SSI- eligibility . requirements.

At the time, ABC wins bidding war on Jackson documentary NEW YORK (AP) -· ABC won a network bidding war to acquire the rights to a documentary on Michael Jackson and immediately scheduled it for prime time on Feb. 7. The documentary, "Living with Michael Jackson," fea· tures "unprecedented and exclusive access to Jackson's private life," ABC promised. British journalist Martin Bashir spent eight months with Jackson and was with him when Jackson horrified onlookers by dangling his baby from a hotel balcony in Berlin, the ·network said. Jackson is no longer, as he calls himself, the king of pop music. But he has a proven track record as a television draw. Some 25.7 million viewers tuned into "Michael Jackson: 30th Anniversary Special" on CBS in November 2001; viewership increased every half-hour for the program, culled from tapes of a Madison Square Garden tribute concert appearance. Previous interviews with Oprah Winfrey and Diaqe Sawyer also attracted big audiences. The Daily Sentinel · Reader Services Correction Polley (UsPs 213·9801 . Ohio Valley Publishing Co.

The commercials link SUVs to terrorism and mimic anti-drug SP.ots that suggest profits from illegal drugs go to terronsts. It clearly is hyperbole to allege that people who follow the law ana contribute to their communities side with terrorists because they chauffeur their kids in a Lincoln Navigator. Yet this conflict ca_lled a war has perplexed Americans from the start. In World War II, the government asked citizens to sacrifice. No victory gardens or rationing this time; we ' re told to "live our fives ." In 1943, it not only would have been selfish to drive an SUV; it would have been nearly impossible. The delivery may be controversial, but the issue is legitimate, and the entertainment value of the spots is reason enough to see them.

There was a time, back in those first days when multi-state rockets blasted off from launch pads in Florida, when space travel was considered exciting and quite possibly the greatest endeavor ever undertaken by the human species. Of course, there was a different motivalion for space travel during that time; the world was in the grip of the Cold War, and both the United States and Soviet Union wanted to conguer that new frontier. Now, the Cold War 1s long over; as is the space race between the East and the West. In the absence of such a space race, a paradox has occurred. Enthusiasm for space exploration is at an all-time high. ith new technology for better, more powerful telescopes and unmanned probes, we have learned more about our universe in the past 20 hears than we have in the entire history of urnankind. With the possibility of discovering extraterrestrial life at our doorstep, due to new discoveries on worlds such as Mars and Jupiter's moon Europa, and the detection of over 100 new planets in other star systems, we're at the brink of answering one of the oldest questions of our exisrenee: Are we alone? And with instruments such as the . as the Hubble Space Telescope were put on hold as engineers and investigators tried to reconstruct the disaster.

Kevm' Necessary w s WASHINGTON TODAY Despite indifference, GOP closely watching hopefuls BY WILL lEsTER WASHINGTON - President Bush and his aides tend to treat the early stages of the Democratic presidential race like an irrelevant sideshow, but Republican polit· ical analysts are closely watching the emerging field of candidates. And many say they expect the 2004 race. to be close - citin~ the struggling economy and the country s close partisan split. "Anyone who's been through this process knows that aJear in politics is a. very long time," sai Scott Reed, who headed Bob Dole's losin~ GOP campaign in 1996. "Clearly, a nommation is always worth fighting for." GOP strategist Charlie Black said, "We're going to plan that it's close and hard-fought and operate that way." . Even though Bush looks relatively strong now, with job approval near 60 percent and a stron~ bond with the public, veteran strategists like former party c hairman Rich Bond remember the GOP nightmare of 1992. Bush's father was in free fall in the polls and the little-known Democratic ~ovemor · from Arkansas named Bill Chnton took off like a rocket. So GOP strategists are closely scrutinizing the Democratic field and researchers for the Republican National Committee are preparing attack strategies. . They contend that: • Former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean is an "ultraliberal" who supports civil 4,2003 unions of gay couples and wants to roll back Bush administration tax cuts to support "budget-busting" universal health care. • North Carolina Sen. John Edwards is a lightweight who has accomplished little and is "a captive of the trial lawyers," since he made his fortune in that professioil. . • Missouri Rep. Dick Gephardt is "a keeper of the liberal flame" whose appeal with voters fell short in four attempts to win control of the House of Representatives and in a 1988 presidential run. • Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry is a direct descendant of 1988 Democratic nominee Michael Dukakis, a governor of the same state. • Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman is failing to stick with his centrist, moderate policies as a senator, reverting to the a'djustments he made in 2000 to fit in with AI Gore's liberal, populist presidential campaign. • The Rev. AI Sharpton is a welcome addition to the field because his attacks from the !eli will pull all the Democratic candidates toward the left - opening the door to a backlash from centrist Democrats and swing voters in the general election. The Democratic candidates frequently attack the Bush White House, but administration officials calmly deflect the criti~cism by saying they are 'jockeying for position." Bush tried to put the early stages of the campaign in perspective early ibis month • from his ranch in Crawford, Texas. "One of these days, somebody will emerge, and we 'II tee it up, and see who the American people want to lead," Bush said "And unti I that happens, I'm going to be doing my job." · GOP strategists tend to see Kerry, Gephardt and Lieberman in the first tier of Democratic candidates, largely because each has experience and a relatively high profile within the party. Some others mclude Edwards in that top tier because of his Southern roots, personal wealth and telegenic appeal. Some GOP strategists ibink Dean offers refreshing candor to the race, but few expect him-to mise the money needed to compete. If Florida Sen. Bob Graham gets in the race after heart surgery, some GOP strategists say he could he a top-tier candidate thanks to his home state and his extensive experience. Veteran Republican strategist ·Alex Castellanos srud Bush has developed a close personal bond with voters over the last year and a half, but he also offered a warning to Republicans. "As long as there's an election you can' t take anything for granted," Castellanos said. "Whom the jlodS would destroy, they firSt give a 70 tavorable rating."

Kethy Hyl,lll, Clark/1l'eleurer (2) 4.11 �Page B 6 • The Dally Sentinel Tuesday, February 4, www.mydallysentlnel.com Religious messages can be refused in polite ways DEAR ABBY: Your advice to "Happy Hindu in the Bible Belt," whose Christian friends tuck religious pamphlets into holiday boxes of baked goodies in an effort to convert her, was off base. You ad vised her to ignore the brochures and enjoy the goodies - unless she had lost her appetite- in which case she should donate the treats to a shelter or take them to the office. I disagree. That lovely lady shol!ld politely tell her friends that she likes her own religion and ask them to please stop with the religious literature. If they continue, she should. end the friendship. If converting her is more important than her friendship, there IS no friend· ship. - BEEN THERE, TOO, IN BEND, ORE. DEAR B.T.T.: Your answer is better than mme. "Hap.py Interestingly, Hindu's" problem appears to be widespread. That letter brought in a bushel of mail. Read on: DEAR ABBY: I am Jewish. A friend from college kept sending me "Jesus Loves You" Christmas cards. I told her it hurt my feelings that she t:lidn 'I respect my beliefs. I made it clear that I am Jewish and will always remain Jewish. as it is my religious and cultural background. Dear Abby ADVICE Like "Hindu," I know that some of these gestures · are well-intentioned, but I would never dream of sending my friend Hanukkah cards. I send cards that say "Season's or "Happy Greetings" Holidays." It's good to learn about other people's beliefs and be open to them - but not when they're forced on you. - JILL IN SACRA· MENTO DEAR JILL: I regret that I did not advise "Happy Hindu" to be as outspoken and upfro~! as you and "Been There. · DEAR ABBY: Your answer to "Happy Hindu" offended me as a Christian. If the cir· cumstances were different, would you tell me to ignore my Buddhist friends, but enjoy their treats if I didn't gag first? Why is evangelical Christianity the only religion we shouldn't tolerate? MARYS., ELLUAY, GA. DEAR MARY S.: It's not. Anyone who proselytizes is treading on "sacred ground." It's re11arded as offensive, e<ven if 11 is heartfelt. DEAR ABBY: Hard as it is to live with some evangelicals, they are easier to take than people who feel justified in resorting to violence against those they feel are "lost." You have to understand that with evangelicals, it is an article of faith, and it's their Christian duty to preach their version of the Go$pel, especially if they care about you and are genuinely concerned about your soul. DOLLY IN LACEY, WASH. DEAR DOLLY: I am aware of that. A devout and very sweet lady once told me she was "sad" because she loved me and knew she wouldn't see me in heaven. I asked her why. She said, "Because you haven't been saved!" Once I got over the shock that her heaven was segregated, I assured her that even though I might not be in hers, she would definite! y be in mine, so please not to worry any further. DEAR ABBY: Many people have stopped me on the street or come to my door with religious tracts, so I had cards printed with the following: "I never' told my own religion nor scrutinized that of another. I never attempted to make a convert, nor wished to change another's creed. I am satisfied that yours must be an excellent religion to have produced a life of such exem· plary virtue and correctness. For it is in our lives, not from our words, that our religion must be judged." (Thomas Jefferson to Mrs. H. Harrison Smith, 1816) - KAYE IN N.Y.C.

ALBANY The Ridgeview Carryout on Ohio Route 681 close to the Meigs-Athens county line was robbed early Tuesday afternoon. According to the Meigs County Sheriff's Department, Robert Workman, 28, Rutland, allegedly walked into the store wearing an overcoat. With one of his hands in his pocket, he allegedly motioned to the clerk that he had a ~un in this pocket. Prehminary reports indicate that more than $100 in cash was taken along with a case of beer. Workman reportedly left the store and jumped into a car where Angie Riley, from Institute, W.Va. , was · allegedly waiting. As the charcoal grey Toyota was pulling away from the crime scene, the clerk took down the West Virginia license plate number and called the Meigs County Sheriff's Department, which responded immediately. .

Please SH Robblry, AS Assistant managing editor CHESHIRE - Residents of the Village of Cheshire weren't the only ones interested in Tuesday's vote concerning dissolution of the municipality. Those who live in the surrounding area also took note of the proceedings. Paul Stinson is president of Citizens Against Pollution (CAP), a grassroots group that has risen to the forefront as residents' concerns have increased regarding environmental problems at the Gen. James M. Gavin Power Plant. Stinson said he a~reed with Cheshire residents decision to keep the village government intact, despite the fact he doesn'tlive inside the corporation limit. He and his wife own a residence on nearby Roush Lane . "This is a way that everybody can walk away with their heads held high," he said. "We did not destroy the village." . Stinson said while he does· n't believe those who live outside village limits should have been involved in last April's purchase agreement between Cheshire residents and American Electric Power, he does think he and his neighbors should have been kepi in the proverbial loop concerning negotiations between the village and AEP, especially since residents of Cheshire Township and other areas joined with villagers in protesting pollution levels at Gavin. "We were good enough to help the village fight the anhydrous ammonia, but we weren't good for anything else," he said. "We don't know what the future's going to bring, but the fight's still on.''' CAP has maintained regular contact with the Environmental Protection Agency. at both the state and federal level. However, Stinson said communication between his group and AEP has not been quite as steady.
