Reed) · · POMEROY ·Meigs County Health Commissioner Norma 'T'orres said Tuesday the risk of contracting Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) is "minimal" for Meigs County residents, but said practicing good preventive health measures is still a good idea. · On Monday, a case of SARS was reported in a 2-year-old Athens County girl who had recently visited China, where the disease is believed to have originated. The disease has been prevalent in Asian countries, and those who visit those countries · with SARS outbreaks and those who come into immediate contact with those visitors are believed to be at the highest risk of contracting the illness. Five cases of SARS have been reported in Ohio to date. Besides the young Athens County girl, who is expected to recover from the illness, according to the Ohio Department of Health, a Shelby County man, a Cuyahoga County man and two young children from Lucas County have been diagnosed with SARS. "We have no information to indicate any illness from SARS in Meigs County - yet," Torres said Tuesday. "But it's important that the community be involved in a strong public health defense, because that serves us best in the prevention of any infectious disease:· Torres said that defense includes basic hygiene and germ prevention, such as vigilant hand-washing and avoiding shared drinking cups. "It's also important that people eat well, get plenty of rest and try not to burn the candle at both ends," Torres said. "It's also a gOod idea to avoid contact with people who are coughing and sneezing, since the illness is believed to be caused by an airborne virus." "Right now, the risk is minimal, but like a lot of illnesses which emerge, we do not know what the actual risk factors are, so it's impOrtant that people be careful in avoiding the risk of infection." Symptoms of SARS include a temperature higher than I00.4 degrees, respiratory dis- · tress symptoms, such as coughing, shortness of breath, and difficulty breathing, travel within I0 days of the onset of symptoms to or from those countries where the disease is more prevalent. While no details have been released about the Athens County SARS case, Torres said the relatively large population of Ohio University international students who might visit China, Singapore, Vietnam and the other Asian countries dealing with the outbreak might be a contributing risk factor for that community and for local residents who attend school or work there. / :Inside • AEP president to retire, .See page Al • Use conservation tillage, ' See page A3 · • .

"Conservation tillage is the single best practice a crop farmer can use to save soil and protect water resources," said' David Hansel mann. chief of the ODNR Division of Soil and Water Conservation. "Ohio has been a nat ional leader in the use of conserva~ tion-based farming. and needs . to continue that great legacy." : Conservation tillage :involves leaving at least 30 ·percent of a crop's residue on the surface as a protective cover for soil. Popular varia. tions are known as no-till. strip-till and ridge-till farmin g. Compared to conve ntional tillage, these '·mulch" tillage methods reduce soil erosion b~ 50 to 90 perce nt and pest ic1de movement by up to 70 percent. From an environmental viewpoi nt. no-till · farming makes good sense, especiall y on Meigs . Coun ty's erosioilpronc fields, said Michae l Duhl , district conservationist for the Natu ra l Resource Conservation Service. Usi ng a soybean crop as an example. Duhl estimated that a typical Meigs County fi eld on a gen tle slope being farmed in a continuous soybean rotation may lose 9.4-ions of soi l per acre every year when the tield is plowed. disced and seeded. However, that same field would only lose 2.'! acres of soil when usi ng no-till methods. Three to four tons of soil lost per acre per year in Meigs Counly is the maximum loss a soil can have in order to sustai n itself, he said. "Jt takes 200 years to build · one inch or top>oi l," Duhl explained. "A ton of soi l, when spread over an acre, is the thickness of a sheet of paper. " The Meigs Soil and Water Conservation Di strict has several no-till planters available for landowners 10 use on a renta l basis. · Last year, landow ners planted 547 .5 acres using the no-till planters, according to SWCD program . administralm Opal Dyer. The pl anters. more commonly known as drill s, open up a thin furrow in the gro un~ through existing crop residue, deposit the seed, and then close the furrow over the seed. Generally, an herbicide is first applied to kill competing vegetmion wh ile leaving a protective layer of res idue on the soil. :Agritourism catching on t ~----~~ Farrtler Daniel Knisley. owner of Great Basin Farms. surveys hi s parched alfalfa fie ld in •· Lovelock, Nev., Saturday.

The last time I had a major attack, my doctor had me on colchicines. For the last six weeks I've had severe pain in my ankles, especially at night. Is there <mything else I can do for this pain? I have given up red meat and wine. Answer: Primary gout is a common problem among middle-aged men and postmenopausal women. This metabolic disorder runs in families, and is caused by high levels of uric acid in the body. These elevated uric acid levels - called "hyperuricemia" if you want to get technical - c,an be due to either overproduction or underexcretion of uric acid, or sometinles both.

This includes diseases such as multiple myeloma, psoriasis, hemolytic anemia, myeloproliferative disease and certain types of cancer. Secondary gout · can also be due to lead poisoning or as the result of an ,.adverse affect of certain medications. Management of the acute attack should be aimed at treating the pain and the inflarnmalion. Prevention of further attacks is best tackled after the acute attack has subsided. One ofthehallrnarksofprevemion is dietary management - speciticallytheavoidanceoffoodscontaining ' substances called "purines" that elevate the levels of uric acid in the blood. While you mentioned avoiding red meat and wine, there are many 'other foods that are rich in purines. All alcoholic beverages, especially beer, are high in purines. Other high-purine foods include organ meats - such as Subscribe today. 992-2156 liver and kidneys - and m<my types of seafood. as well as bacon, veal. venison and turkey. It is also important to review the medications you arc taking to see if any are known to ele vate blood uric ac id levels. Also, lifestyle Changes - such as weight loss and alcohol avoidance · - can often prevent attacks and eliminate the need for drugs. Non-steroidal anti-inllarnmatory drugs (NSAIDsJ such a1 ibuprofen are useful treatme nts. Aspirin should be avoided as it may make symptoms of gout worse. Sometimes, your physician has to try several drugs or drug combinations -· in addition to your own lifestyle changes - to make you pain and attack tree. Drinking plenty of water also helps rid your system of uric acid. Even with aggressive treatment, a chronic gou ty arthriti> can d~velop.

Register, 011 payi11g for the war: President Bush presented his first request of money to pay for the Iraq war: $75 billion. "We cannot know the duration of this war, yet we know its outcome," he said in a speech at the Pentagon. He said "unrelated, unwise and unnecessary" items should not be added to his request by Congress. But wartime pork is a tradition going back at least to the Civil War. And to look at matters less cynically, Congress has a constitutional responsibility to make sure the money is spent properly. . · The cost comes on top of the president's $2.2 trillion budget proposal for fiscal year 2003-04. which begins on Oct. I; and projected a $300 billion deficit. The deficit now is $375 bithan - and counting. The war cost also endangers the president's proposed $726 billion tax cut over 10 years. Last month, the House of Representatives passed the entire tax cut. But later the Senate cut it in half. If war costs escalate, Congress may ax the entire Cax cut. ; -Proposed spending increases of all kinds in the Bush admin¢ration budget need to be examined in light of the potential scope of the conflict.

The studies · that said Marin, Calif., had the highest rate of breast cancer in the nation might be wrong. The report about the Marin cancer rate jumping an astounding 20 percent between 1998 and 1999 might have been off. That is what researchers from the National Cancer ti1Slitute told Rep. Lynn Woolsey (D-Petaluma), who · had assembled a task force last fall to study the alarming breast cancer rates in Marin. The group presented Woolsey with preliminary results that suggested the Marin rates - which had been based on estimated population numbers extrapolated · from the 1990 census would be lower once they were recalculated using updated numbers from the 2000 census. "Rates for Marin county remain high in these preliminary results l1ut in line with other counties on the West Coast and do not differ from some other California regions," said Dr. Brenda Edwards, associate director of the Surveillance Research Program at NCI, according to Ryan a press release from Woolsey 's office. I felt no small amount of relief upon hearing this news . I live in Marin. I have friends in Marin with breasi cancer. The NCI fi,ndings seemed to suggest we had no more to worry about than any other woman in America. They reinforced the notion that there likely was nothing peculiar to Marin - such as toxins in the water, radioactive material from the Farallon Islands. pesticides on our hiking trai Is - causing an anomaly of sky-high cancer rates . Then I called Tina Clarke, an epidemiologist at the Nonhern California Cancer Center. There is nothing like a chat with a scientist to puncture your relief with prickly facts. The NCI's finding s, · she said, haven "t changed the most important factor: The · breast cancer highest-risk group for breast cancer and are disproportionately represented in Marin. That's why. Clarke says, the breast cancer rates tend to be higher in Marin than other, more diverse counties. 'T d love to believe. breast cancer isn't ·a problem in Marin. but it is." said Judi Shils. founder and director of · the Marin Cancer Project. ·'So you ,continue to _push ahead as hard as you can to get to the other side of it, so we don't have people every day hearing that somebody else they know has cancer. I would hate to think these preliminary numbers make anyone complacent." As Clarke said, it doesn"t . tt 1·r the new numbers ~a er . . ftnd that Mann ts no longer No. 1 m breast cancer.

Bush,.Congress need to help stressed r~serves Citizen soldiers reservists and National ·Guard members - expect to get called to active service in wartime. It's what they 've signed up and trained for. But, in recent years, thousands have been called to active duty more· than once and for extended periods , causing members . of Congress to wonder how long this can last. Somewhere between a third and 40 percent of reservists s~ffer pay cuts when they go on active duty. Many lose health insurance for their families, and some have to leave home on as little as a day's notice. At a hearing last week of the House Armed Services subcommittee on total force, Chairman John McHugh (RN.Y.) said he worries that "if we don't do something in Washington to smooth out the growing height of the bumps (reservists) face, we risk losing the force ." The five reservists . and guard personnel who testified at the hearing were hard! y complaining, but they reported on mi suse of their skills, lack of advice to their familie s on medical benefits, multiple call-ups and extensions of their duty time and going into debt during their servi ce. · Pentagon officials point out that recruitment and ' retention rates in the reserves .and National Guard have not suffered de spite nine mobilizations over the p,11st 13 years, including the present d1ll-up of nearly 220,000 for the Iraq war, about 20 percent of all reservists. But Steve Anderson, legislative director for the Officers Reserve Association, t6ld me that I • Joan rates in Marin and the Bay Area remain significantly . above the nationar average. " I never understood why it . was so important to say Marin was No. I in the country or No.2 or No.5.'' Clarke said. " What matters is that ' the rates in Marin and in the Bay Area are higher than in other places. This is something .':"e have known for 30 . years.

They have been say mg for the past few years that the rates would likely be adjusted downward once the new census numbers were factored in. (The NCCC will revise its own breast-cancer numbers thi s summer using California Department of Finance numbers. which Clarke says are more accurate than national census numbers.)

(AP) Court dismisses James Prenger's perfect game believed to lawsuit but prevents forfeits .. AKRON (AP) - LeBro'o James' lawsuit was dismissed Wednesday by a judge who ruled that Ohio high school officials cannot strip the superstar and his school of its state basketball championship.

"By doing so, I believe it justifies that we do have an appeals process in ~lace and it needs to be utihzed first before any litigation is brought forth," Muscaro said.

"Unless the OHSAA pursues this. we'll take the forfeit and move on." James' attorney, Fred Nance. issued a statement praising Williams' ruling. "The James family appreciates Judge Williams' careful consideration and disposition of the issues l;lefore him and are pleased that this matter. has been concluded." Nance said.

(AP) - The men in green stood together, a defiant show of support for Augusta National Golf Club and its steadfast belief that only men should wear those coveted jack· ets. Wit!J Tiger Woods set to pursue an unprecedented third straight Masters title beginning Thursday, Augusta National got anot!Jer chance to make its case for having an all-roale club. Wit!J tile spotlight on Hootie Johnson. the club chainnan used his annual state of the Masters address to make a no-apologi es statement about the exclusive membership policy. "Men like to get toget!Jer with men every now and then, and women like to get toget!Jer with women every now and then," the 72-year-old Johnson said Wednesday. "That's a simple fact of life in America." Manha Burk wants to change that pan of American life, at least at Augusta National, though a federal appeals court turned down her request to protest SatljPtlay outside the front gate. / Clearly, they ·put this club over the Constitution," she said. ''That ought to be a concern for everyone in this country." The focus shifted Thursday momin'g from green jackets to rain jackets. Heavy rain that has fallen on Augusta National since Sunday kept the Masters from starting at its appointed time of 8: lO a.m. EDT. The club hoped to start at II a.m. from the first and lOth tees - a rarity at the Masters. Sunshine is in the forecast for Saturday. That"s when Burk and lier supporters will be relegated to a grassy field about a half-mile from the main entrance to Magnolia Lane - unless she defies local authorities and risks arrest. , "If we ask folks to move on and they refuse. they are break· ... •WIN• 2FIBncms IPIIIIIIIJ.EY ing the law," Sheriff Ronald Strength said. Johnson said hi s club isn "t breaking any laws: It is simply a private club that has the final say on who_gets in_- and who stays out. To dramatize the club's position. more than 60 green-jacket-. ed men - about 20 percent of the membership - flanked the chairman during_a news conference dominated by questions about membership policy. "If I drop dead this-second, our position will not change on this issue," Johnson said. " It's not my issue alone." At the Masters, it seems, some things never change. The azaleas and dogwoods are bursting with colors. Arnold Palmer still strolls the fairways, carried along by a legion of fans. Woods, as always, is the heavy favorite. And anyone who. thought Augusta National might cavf in to pressure and allow a woman to wear a green jacket w&s met again- by uuer defiance. "'There· may well come a time when we include women as members of our club,"" Johnson said. "However, l want to emphasize that we have no timetable, and our membership is very comfortable with our pre· sent status." Players have been dragged into the debate, too. Instead of being asked about the slick, con· toured greens and the tricky 12th hole planted behind Rae's Creek, they are grilled on whether women should belong to the private club that hosts the public Masters, Woods would li'ke to see Augusta National admit women members, although the world's No. I player concede~ he has no influence on club mauers.

The biggest surprises were in Ottawa and Dallas. where the top-seeded Senators and Stars were beaten Wednesday night. Ottawa, the Presidents' Trophy winner with. 113 points, lost 3-0 to the ' New York Islanders -· the No. 8 in the Eastern · seed Conference. New York had 30 fewer points than the Senators in the regular season, but was able to back up coach Peter Laviolette 's cla1m that he had the better team in this series. "We played like a team, and it's good to feel like xou're not alone on the ice, ' said Alexei · Yashin, a former Senators player who scored for New York. Edmonton, taking on the Stars in the playoffs for the sixth time in seven years, have a rare .lead. The Oilers got it with a 2-1 win. Toronto took a 1-0 lead in its best-of-seven series by beating the Flyers 5-3 in Philadelphia. In another Eastern Conference series, New Jersey became the only horne team to win on opening · night with a 2-1 victory over Boston. All but one series in the East bega n Wednesday.

New York's Dave Scatchard and·Shawn Bates added goals, and Garth Snow stopped 25 shots for his first playoff shutout. :·our team on many occasions in big games has played big games," Laviolette said. Scatchard and Yashin scored in the first period, and Bates made it 3-0 midway · through the second. "We believe that you work for your brealks, and we were working hard and rewarded for it," Islanders captain Mike Peca said. Ottawa has a history of disappointing its fans. Despite seven straight postseason appearances and three ICOpoint seasons in five, the Senators have just two series wins and none when they have home-ice advantage. "We were too overanxious," Ottawa captain Daniel Alfredsson said. "We were running around, trying to .finish every check - we wanted to do too much." . Ryan Smyth scored a shorthanded goal between the legs of Marty Turco, then Shawn Horcoff beat his glove, to send the Oilers on the way to victory. • Edmonton has a playoff lead over the Stars for the first time since 1997, when the Oilers won in seven ·games. Dallas won postseason meetings in J998, '99, '00 and '0 I and never trailed in any of those meetings. "It's only the first game," Horcoff said, "but it's definitely gratifying ."

To her I would say: "Don't give up on his family, but don't count on 'them to fill your time. Call the Navy chaplain, the local college or another Navy wife." During my husband's first long cruise, like her, I was lost. Then I started volunteering for the Red Cross at Portsmouth Naval Hospital and for Navy Relief in the thrift . shop. The more involved one is, the less time one has for · fretting over in-laws. Most important, Navy wives whose husbands are on sea duty are usually very close-knit and supportive of one another. During deployments, such friendships are often closer than relationships with one's own family. It is the responsibility of the captain of the ship, or his wife, to see that the spouses have points of contact before the ship departs. A spouse's sea duty can be looked upon as an opPortunity to take classes, get together with other · spouses "in the same boat," or get involved in all sorts of projects. If worth more than I can express. In ·the Coast Guard, each unit has an ombudsman who is in charge of keeping spouses connected. This service is a lifesaver. The family I have joined here with the military is priceless. Knowing that my strength to that of my husband's, adds ADVICE and. seeing · others ,going through the same thing, makes "Miserable" takes my advice, it all worthwhile. -KAY IN her husband 1 her marriage and KODIAK, ALASKA DEAR KAY: My admirathe Navy w1ll profit fron\ her ·tion for you; and for other milefforts..
