GALLIPOLIS - Excited
parents prepared their youngsters for battle early Friday
morning during the annual
Baby Olympic ~; held at the
Gallipolis Cny Park.
Chtldren from up to age to
three years were eligible to
participate in the events, rangtng from a rol-l over race to a
ball throwing contest. ·
Centenary residents Brian
Jacobs-Johnson and Iris wife,
Melissa, entered their 7-monthold daughter Bailey into the
crawling contest, where she beat
out two other toddlers tor the win.
"She didn't win the pretty
baby contest," Jacobs-Johnson
said. "But we still wanted to
get her involved in the events
this weekend."
Other toddler 's, like twoand-a-half-year-old
Abby
McKean, have been 'practic-.
ing' for the events.
"She's goin~ to be in the
'throw a•·,ball contest," her
mother said. "She's had her little
T-ball set out playing with it."
, Holzer Clinic has sponsored
the -Baby Olympics event !i1r
six years said Clink employee
Joyce Fox.
"I really enjoy doing this," she
said. "We all have a great time
and it's just good family fun ."
The only problem, Fox S&lt;!id,
is that the timing of this year's
event could have been better.
"We're going to try lo do this
on Kid's Day next year," she
said. "There JUSt aren 't enough
activities gomg on this' morning like there were yesterday."
Fox said that they would
also like to expand the age
grqups next year.
"If we can get it approved.
we'd like to include four and Seven-month-old Bailey Jacobs-Johnson crawls for the win Friday morning during the Holzer

"The judge could either

Rather than a major split,
Neff suggests the issues
could lead to a"hemorrhage"
in church membership.
· " If this (Van · Kuiken
removal) turns out to be an
isolated case, conservatives
could make a major exit," Neff
said. "If it proves to be the first
of a number of victories for
conservatives, then it probably
would cause a liberal ·exit."
The Rev. James Berkley, a
minister in suburban Seattle
and a mi nistry director for the
theologically conservative
Presbyterians for Renewal,
said the Van Kuiken case in
Cincinnati will have a national impact on the church.
"Were he not disciplined,
we would lose any sense of
the credibility of the constitution that holds us together,"
Berkley said. "I think the
ouster was a sign that the
church knows where it stands
on the constitution."
Conservative activist and
attorney Paul R. Jensen. of
Laguna Beach, Calif., filed the
disciplinary action against Van
Kuiken that led a Cincinnati
Presbytery court to order the
heterosexual minister to cease
marrying same-sex couples.
The highest Presbyterian court
ruled in 2000 that ministers may
bless same-sex unions, but can-

not many the couples. When
Van Kuiken, the minister at
Mount Auburn Presbyterian
Church, continued to marry
Same-sex couples, the Cincinnati
Presbytery last month found he
had formally renounced church
jurisdiction and removed him
. from the ministry. .
"This was a tremendou s
victory for those of us who
want to take our church back
from heretics who seek to
destroy it," said Jensen.
Jensen said the immediate
impact of the Van Kuiken case
is to strengthen the resolve of
those who want to preserve the
integrity of the Presbyterian
constitution. He said that he
and a group of 20 ·ministers
and elders around the country
are stepping up their efforts
and will file disciplinary
actions by the end of July
against 350 ministers who they
believe have broken ordination
vows and violated church law.
Jensen said removing Van
Kuiken from the church
sends the message that no
one can get away with breaking church law.
"The liberal ministers who
defy church law will be
kicked out of the pulpit or
walk out.of their own accord,"
he said. "They won't win."
Van Kuiken, who was a minis-

ter for 19 years, s.tid he tears his
removal wi ll hinder the denomination's effort' toward full inclusion of gays and lesbians.
"My fear now is that gay~
and lesbians in the church will ·
feel that they have to hide and
more indi viduals will become
intimidated and scared," he
said. "I think full inclusion is
inevitable. but it may take a
long, long time if middle-ofthe-road Presbyterians don't
take a stand for what is right."
The director of That All May
Freely Serve, a theolo(!.ically
hberal group workmg tor the
full inclusion of gay, lesbian.
bisexual and tmnsgender people
in the Presbyterian Church. is
confident Van Kuiken's ouster ·
will lead to eventual success liw
those who share his views.
" l believe that the active
courage of this mi nister and
his congregation should have
the effect of empowering other .
congregations to say 'enough :
is enough,"' said the Rev. Jane
Adams Spahr, director of the ..

Bush celebrates July Fourth with troops
DAYTON, Ohio (AP) President Bush delivered an
impassioned F~:mrth of July
uefense of warm Iraq, declaring that the United States is
"on the offensive against terronsts and all who support
them."
Celebrating Independence
Day at this midwestern military base along with thousands of Air Force families
and other spectaiors, the president said Friday that the
na tion had learned plenty
fro m .the pain of the deadly
Sept. II terror attacks.
'·S ince that September day,"
he said, "we made our own
imcntions clear to them: The

United States will not stand
by and wait for another attack
or trust in the restraint and
good intentions of evil men."
Bush has cited a general
threat of continuing terflorism
against the United States and
a specific threat from Saddam
Hussein as justification for
the u.s.:Jed war against Iraq.
"We will not permit any terrorist group or outlaw regime
to threate)l us witl) weapons
of mass murder," he told a
cheering crowd of mostly military servicemen and women
and their families. "We will
act whenever necessary to
protect the lives and liberty of
the American 'people."

For this, the president said. the

NATIONAL VIEW

Protecting
Seattle Post·lntellige~cer, on protecing foreign-born chil·
dren:
Americans care about human rights, especially where children are involved. We need to translate our concern into reality for unaccompanied children who seek entry to this country.
Too often, in this state and elsewhere, those kids flee desperate situations only to find themselves treated like criminals
rather than refugees. Amnesty International recently documented the unnecessary confinement, fear and uncertainty the
children sometimes suffer.
The recent reorganization of most immigration duties should
improve the handling of the 5,000 or so unaccompanied for- ·
eign children who ar~ive annually at our borders.
Responsibility for the children has shifted from immigration
officials to the Department of Health and Human Services,
where the focus is on assisting people, not prosecuting them.
Congress needs to change the law further to give' the children
greale[ protection. Sens. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., and Sam
Brownback, R-Kan., have introduced a proposal that gen~rally
would ensure that unaccompanied foreign children aren't
placed in juvenile criminal facilities, receive legal counsel and
·
have interpreters.
Americans know that they cannot solve every problem. 13ut
we want to help as many children as possible, and to treat all
of them well.
Brownback and Feinstein's bipartisan bill. which has alreadY\ .
been co-sponsored by Washington Sen. Maria Cantwell, pr\)- ,.l
vides a way to live up to our standards. Kids and the country .·
deserve that much.
·

Bill Clinton and I have a
few things in common. He is
making a lot of money these
days mouthing off. and so am
I. He came from rather humble beginnings, and I was
raised in a working-class
environment as welL We are
both in the top income bracket. but here is where we
diverge. Mr. Clinton loves
paying taxes. I don't.
Speaking
before the
Rainbow/Push
coalition,
Clinton criticized the Bush
tax cut: "We are going to put
half a million (children) out
on the street so I can get my
$80,000 tax cut. I must be the
only person in America that
every time I pay the maximum tax rates. every time I
sign that tax form , I smile. I
thank God I live in a country
that g&amp;ve me a ch;mce· to
make the money I do."
Not only does Mr. Clinton
)ike paying ta.xes, but as chief
executive he loved raising
them. According to the Tax
Foundation, the tax burden
on working Americans under
his administration was the
highest since World War II .
So it is fair to say that B1ll
Clinton is a taxing kind of
guy.
Now. I don't want to put

Bill
O'Reilly

any child "out on the street."
Especially since the streets 111
New York where I live are
often full of enormous potholes that apparently the state
cannot fix. That is simply
unacceptable, and I will say
this quite clearly: If we are
going to put the kids out on
the street, we must pave those
streets. What are we here,
barbarians?
Right now, I pay around
60 cents of every dollar I
make in taxes. By giving
money. to charity I can get
that down a bit, but my tax
bill s are enormous. And it's
likely yours are, too. Even if
you are not making big·
bucks, the government is
picking your pocket daily
with tolls, gas taxes, property
taxes, sales taxes, death taxes
and surcharges on most communications equipment.

When you die, Bill Clinton
will drive a U-haul to your
hOuse and take up to 60 percent of your stuff. That's
called the estate tax . And Bill
wants a piece of any interest
you earn, any dividend you
receive and any investment
money you make. He is having a great time paying all he
owes, and he wants you to
have a grand time as welL
I would not begrudge
these punishing tax rates that
Clinton embraces 1f the
money were used wisely. But
that is not the case.
According to the General
Office ,. the
Accounting
Pentagon cannot account for
a trillion dollars in funding.
That's trillion with a "T." And
how about ' that "Big Dig"
highway project in Boston
that went from $3 billion to
$16 billion under Bill
Clinton's watch. Federal dollars funded most of that cost
overrun. I hope Bill C. enjoys
the Ted Williams TunneL
And then there are the kids
who, when they are not in the
streets, are in school. In
Washington, D.C., Bill C.'s
administration forked over
$10,000 dollar per pupil for
readin', writin' and 'rithmetic
in the District's public

schools. Guess what'? The
District's Catholic Schools,
spending less than half that
amount per pupil. had higher
test scores on average. And
here's the kicker: According
to D.C. Auditor Deborah
Nichols, District school officials cannot account for $1.6
in
credit-card
million
charges. Maybe the Pentagon
should investigate.
The truth is that the government is running a shell
game on us. They allocate tax
money but don't watch how
it's spent. They know that
there's an inexhaustible supply of tax dollars coming
from rich guys like. Bill C.
and me. So who cares about
spending efficiencY., let the
good ~imes roiL Btll Clint~n
is havmg the ume of h1s hfe
paying his taxes, and the government is having a blast
spending that money. What a
fun country th1s IS.

Emerson E.
'Gene'

The Gainesville (Fla.) Sun, on the Supreme Court decision
to ban sodomy laws:
Anti-gay bigotry may be the last "acceptable" form of dis·
crimination remaining in American politics.
So it .is hardly surprising that' political conservatives have
seized with a vengeance on last week 's Supreme Court decision banning sodomy laws.
Nor did it take long for the politicians to distort the reasoning behind the court's decision to declare a Texas law that
banned sexual acts between same-sex couples unconstitutionaL ...
In fact, in its decision last week, the court took pains to point
out that the protected right of privacy in the home does not
include the right to engage in prostitution, forced sexual activity, illegal dru~ use and so on.
But never mmd that. It's certain that the court's decision will
add political momentum to the drive to amend the U.S.
Constitution to ban homosexual marriages.
The crusade to enshrine in the Constitution an officially
sanctioned form of discrimination against millions of men and
women will only serve to open up a new front in the cultural
war, one that will produce bitterness and alienation across the
American landscape.

•••••
The Dallas Morning News, on Americans fed up with tele·
marketers, spam:
When the Federal Trade Commission on Friday announced
the launching of its "do not call" registry, designed to thwart
unwanted telemarketing, the stampede of consumers to the
program's Web site crashed the server. Is anyone surprised?
Countless Americans have had their dinners or even their sleep
interrupted, night after night, by unsolicited sales calls. They
.want out! ...
There are loopholes allowing political organitations, pollsters, charities and others to call, but this welcome new pro. gram will provide relief for millions of fed-up consumers who
just wantto be left alone.
Congress must now devise a similar program to block
umyanted e-mails calle~ "spam." .Here's a suggestion: require
onhne marketers to begm the SUbJeCt hnes of the1r sales pitches with the word "ADV," for advertisement. Anti-spam programs could be set to tiller those mails out. Spam m1ght seem
like a relatively petty scourge, but helping ordinary people
tight it and other obnoxious forms of marketing are little things
that count for a lot with consumers who are, after all, are also
voters.

Bus.h needs a broader health plan
President Bush may think he
will have secured himself on
the health care front for 2004 if
he signs a bill providing
seniors with a Med1care pre-·
scription dmg benefit. But he'd
be wrong.
Democrats will criticize the
dru~ plan as inadequate; but
bas1cally they've moved on to
a bigger issue: reforming the
U.S. health care system for
non-seniors, more than 80 percent of the population.
Evidence of the power of this
issue has come in three pieces
within the past month: two
from Detroit, and the other
from Boston.
In Detroit, as the Financial
Times reported on June 9,
General Motors is building up
inventories against the possibility of a nationwide strike this
fall.
·
The issue with GM's unions
is the company's demand for
more sharing of health care
costs with employees: higher
premiums, higher deductibles
and possible reduction in coverage for retirees. The second
report' from Detroit was a lateMay speech by William Clay
Ford, chainnan of the Ford
Motor Co., declaring, "health
care is just out of control. It's a
system that's broke. It really
scares me enormously."
Ford joins a growing chorus
of corp(Jrate voices demanding
large-scale reform of the health
care system, though the solution implicit in his speech replacement of the employerbased insurance system -is
deeply controversial.
The third new piece of evidence of the need tor reform
comes in a new report in the
New England Journal of
Medicine showing that, on
average, doctors provide their
patients with app1"riate health

Commonwealth Fund's president, Karen Davis, told a
Senate appropriations sub- ·
committee on June II that "the .
U.S has the highest health care
spending per capita in the
industrialized world, af]d during the 199(js health spending .
in the U, S. rose faster than in ·
other industrialized countries."
At the same time, Davis
said, "Sick adults in the U.S. .
report higher rates of medical
errors, are more likely to go
for duplicate tests and are far
less likely to have ·their medical records available when
they go for care compared .
with similar adults in other
major English-speaking countries."

Bush has addressed the
health care quality issue, :
mainly to call for legislation to
allow doctors and hospital
administrators to disclose and ·
discuss errors without fear of
lawsuits.
The president's answer to .
the problem of rising medical
costs is medical litigation ·
reform (caps on malpractice .
damage awards) to hold down·
malpractice insurance rates.
Bush has proposed a tax
credit to help lower-income
Americans purchase health
insurance. In a forthcoming
interview with Roll Call,
Bush's Medicare administra- ·
tor, Tom Scully, said that Bush ·
might propose measures to
reform the msurance market.
Bush needs to start thinking
about broad-gauge reform to
addn:ss costs, quality and the
uninsured. Hi s own constituency, America's corpomte
CEOs, are demanding it. And
his Democratic rivals are
promising it.

since May 18, and Jeromy Bumitz hit a
long three-run homer as the New York
Mets beat the Cincinnati Reds 7-2 Friday.
Bumitz had three hits, including one of
the longest homers in Great American Ball
Park's inaugural season. His decisive drive
in the seventh inning deflected off a walkway on the home run smokestacks in .center, a drive estimated at 444 feet.
The Mets, who had 14 hits, batted around
in the seventh for four runs off Jimmy
Haynes (1-8) and two relievers, sending the
Reds to their ninth Joss in 13 games.
Cincinnati had four errors, 8ushing its
major league-leading total to 8 .
Glavine (6-8) emerged frolTI his deep
slump by giving up only four hits, includ'
ing the first of Jose Guillen's two solo
homers, on a humid, 87-degree afternoon.
The Jeft-hander was 0-5 with a l)ll-decision
since his previous vktory, a span that included two inJuries. He lasted only one inning on
June 5 because of a tender elbow, and had to
leave a game on June 22 .after being hit in the
stomach by a Derek Jeter line drive.
It was appropriate that he broke out in
Cincinnati, a place where he's usually successful.
Glavine went 16-4 with a 3.24 ERA at
Cinergy Field. His first victory .at Great
American left him 25-9 career against the Reds.
· Guillen also had a solo homer off John
Franco in the eighth, his 17th of the season.
Guillen had three of Cincinnati's seven hits.
The Reds loaded the bases in the ninth
against David Weathers, but Armando
~enitez threw a called third strike · past
•

pinch-hiJter Ken Griffey Jr. to end th'e game
and get his 20th save in 26 chances.
Haynes got the loss despite another solid
start. He gave up three runs and seven hits
in 6 1-3 innings, leaving with the Mets up
2-1 and Joe McEwing on second base.
Felix Heredia gave up an RBI single to
Rau I . Gonzalez, another single to Ty
Wtggmton and the game-breaking homer
by Burnitz, his 16th.

"Even if he wins or loses
and says, 'That 's it .' he still
has an incredible story and is
potentially even more popular in retirement than as an
active athlete,'' Andrews said.
According to his. new book
due
out
in
October,
Armstrong and hi s wife,
Kristin, have had problems in
their marriage. A spokesman
for Armstrong's U.S. Postal
. Service team, Jogi MuUer,
said they are trying to sort
them out. They have three
young children.
"Life is more complicated
and hectic now than it was
three or four years ago,"
Armstrong said.
"Until now I don 't think
that these complications have
compromised the build-up,
but the next three weeks wi II

from there. Federer erased the
only two break points he
faced and smartly mixed the
pace, spin and placement of
his shots.
Roddick lost only three of
79 service games in the first
five rounds, but Federer dug
in against serves of up to 137
mph. He put all but 25 ·in play,
aces included.
The No. 5-seeded Roddick,
now 0-2 in Grand Slam semifinals this year, was uncharacteristically subdued for most
of the match. He tried a little
showmanship, hitting a ball
between his legs after it landed long. He tried arguing,
briefly complaining when the

WIMBLEDON, England
- With a superior serve and
better all-around game, Roger
Federer beat Andy Roddick
7-6 (6), 6-3 , 6-3 in the
Wimbledon
semifinals
Friday.
The matchup between
young players touted as
future Grand Slam champions
turned out to be a mismatch.
Federer controlled the net,
employed more variety of
shots and - surprisingly hit 17 aces to just four for
'Roddick.
The No. 4-seeded Federer
will play in his first major
final Sunday against unseeded Mark Philippoussis, who

slog around France, almost
anybgdy can win, he said.
"I think it will be ·a tighter
race . I'm not getting any
younger. and therefore probably not getting any stronger,"
Armstrong said at a news
conference, his face tanned,
his hair cropped short.
"Other guys are reaching
the pmnacle of their career. I
think there are some wild
cards that can really change
the face of the race."
Armstrong survived cancer,
brain surgery and stomachchurning chemotherapy to
return to cycling and win the
Tour for the firsttime in 1999.
Three more Tour victories
have turned him into a sporting icon, bringing fame, com· mercia] deals.
Despite all his appearances
in TV ads ·and magazines,
Armstrong's marketability
has yet to reach its full potential, said Jim Andrews of lEG
·in Chicago, which publishes

Man with two lovers
faces double trouble

•

DEAR ABBY: After a sixyear relationship with my
boyfriend, "Rudy," I have
learned that he's been shacking- up with another woman. I
am devastated.
I was sometimes suspicious
about Rudy's living situation.
He told me he was renting a
room from his longtime
friend, "Lorna," but I was
never invited in. Rudy 's
explanation was that since it
wasn't his home, he didn't feel
~ortable having company.
.- Yclu guessed it, Abby.
Lorna, the "longtime friend,"
turned out to be my· Rudy's
lover. 1be way I found out
was humiliating. Last Sunday,
I dropped by to visit him
because he had told me on the
phone the night before that he
had stomach flu. When I rang
the doorbell, an older man
opened the door and identified
himself as Lorna's father.
When I asked if I could
come in and see Rudy, the old
man told me that Lorna and
Rudy were · away on a
Caribbean cruise. My jaw
dropped. When I introduced
myself as Rudy 's girlfriend,
and my I 5-month-old as
Rudy's child, HIS jaw
dropped.
How could the man I love,
the father of our precious
baby, have pulled off this dou-

DEAR

POINT
PLEASANT,
W.Va. - The death of a
Point Pleasant woman is
being treated as suspicious
by the Mason County
Sheriffs Department until
results of a state medical

examiner's autopsy are
obtained, Sheriff Scott
Simms said.
Donna Bonecutter, 52, was
found on the porch of the
second mobile home where
she resided behind Fox's
Pizza Den on Sandhill Road
sometime after 3 a.m.
Wednesday. Simms said the
sheriffs department was

•

notified at 3:26 a.m.
The body was sent to the
state medical examiner's
office in Charleston and
Simms said he may not
obtain results on the cause of
death until later this week.
"This is a suspicious death
which is under investigaton
and will be considered a homicide until our investigation

proves otherwise," Simms
said. "We are working with
the medical examiner on that."
The sheriff uld not speculate on the cause of death,
"other than no firearms are
involved."
There are also no suspects
in the matter until the cause
of death is known, or if he
autopsy results rule out

homicide, Simms said. He
added that the length of time
it takes to obtain the medical
examiner's results depends
on .the caseload. Simms said
he may know something by
the middle of this week, but
more likely toward the end
of the week.
.

"Everybody seems to be
backed up," Simms said.

Meigs
County
Commissioners
authorized the Meigs County
Council on Aging 10 seek
renewal of its one-mill levy on
the November ballot at their
regular meeting Thursday.
.
Susan Oliver, executive
director for the Meigs
County Multipurpose Senior
Center and the council, was
authorized to plape the fiveyear tax issue on the ballot.
The levy, Oliver said, generales approximately $21 0,000
per year, and if renewed in
November, will not c.ost taxpayers additional money,
because it is a renewal levy,
rather than a replacement.
Tl)e levy was first
approved in 1993, and prov1des funding for all pro·
grams and services offere~
through the senior center. ,

"The levy now provides
approximatelyhalfofthefunding for our home-delivered
meal service, and most of the
funding for our tnlnsportation
and medical escort services."
"According to recent statistics. we actually serve
eight people for every senior
we serve through the center
and its services," Oliver
said, "because the families
of those we serve are also
served in the process."
Commissioner
Mick
Davenport, who also serves
as president of the council
board, said the center's
statewide reputation as a
leader in providing services
to the aged population is
also
possible
largely
because of levy funding.
'
. "This center is known as
one of the best itt'the state,

it receives, that's amazing."

FORT
LEONARD
WOOD, Mo. (AP) - There
isn't a tree, porch post or
flower pot outside Samantha
Peterson 's house that doesn't
have a giant yellow ribbon
tied around it.
Peterson put them up April
3, the day her husband, Army
1st Lt. . Donavan Peterson,
'was sent to Iraq. She says he's
the only one who can take the
ribbons down . when he
returns in 2004, but she hopes
.he'll get a preview of the display in a proposed book.
Peterson. has submitted a
photograP.h of her handiwork
for poss1ble inclusion in a
book documenting yellow
ribbon displays around the
country, which is being compiled for soldiers in Iraq.
"I would love it if he were
looking through the book and
came across our house,"
Peterson said. "It would be a
really nice surprise for him."
Katherine · Franz, photographic branch chief at the
Training
and
Doctrine
Command at Fort Monroe,.Va.;
came up with the idea for the
book while walking around the .
fort after the Iraq war began.
"I was noticing all the yellow
ribbons, and I said to myself,
'You know. the soldiers need to
see this,"' Fmnz said.
It became even more pressing when she received an email from her 22-year-old

Samantha PetE!rson talks to a reporter from her front por.ch

"He said, •f1m hot and I'm
tired and being shot at makes
the day go by faster,"' Franz
said. "Your heart just goes out."
Franz has been working
independently on what she

has dubbed "Yellow Ribbon
Project." She was still working out details - including
funding - but envisioned a

MIDDLEPORT - The
floats, music and patnotlc
program
making
up
Middleport's Independence
Day celebration seemed to
echo the sentiments of
Mayor Sandy Iannarelli,
who !!ddressed the crowd at
Dave Diles Park on Friday
evening.
Bill Childs, long-time
community activist and business leader, was the marshal
of this year's July 4 parade.

Following the parade, a
patriotic program was led
by members of FeeneyBennett Post 128, American
Legion, with Dot Norman
singing the national anthem,
.and Laura Perrin leadin~ the
Pledge of Allegiance.
.
A full slate of entertainers
took to the stage for a twohour song and dance pro·
gralfl, and fireworks over
the Ohio River concluded
the evening's festivities.
The event was organized
by
the
Middleport
Community Association.

POINT PLEASANT, W. Va
- · Mason County Sheriff's
Department has added another weapon to its arsenal in
fighting illegal drug activity
- an electronic tip line.
. Growing use of the Internet
prompted Sheriff Scott
Simms and his sta!T to .add a
drug information area to their
Web site where residents can
anonymously file complaims
and information about criminal activity.
.
The drug tip line went
operational two weeks ago .
Widespread use has not yet
materialized, but Simms
expects it will be more active
when the word gets out to the

By then going to the category for drug activity, space
is provided for information to
be written and then submitted
to the sheriff.
Information is confidential,
and Simms assu red anyone ·
wanting to use the tip line it
will remain so.
"We have . taken precautions," Simms said. "We're

not asking for names of people givi ng us information. If
someone wants to have their
name known to us, they'll call
me. And we have several firewalls in place with our system
to discourage hackers."
The tip line for drugs and
other criminal activity came
about through the link the
sheriff"s oftice has with Point
Pleasant Police Department.
Point police have had a webcommunit~.
site and an information filing

, screen.

we· d do thi s together,"
Simms said.
The system was created for
the sheriff's office by Ed
Lowe of EDLO Management
Systems Consulting of Point
Pleasant.
The launch of the drug tip
line comes as summer manjoana eradication efforts by
area law enforcement begins.
"We felt it was a good idea
and another tool we can use
in the drug wars," Simms
said.
People can still call the
sheriff's office with information at (304) 675-3838, but
Simms encouraged anyone
with Internet access to use the
tip line for reporting drug
activity or any other criminal
behavior.
"We' ll still do that. but this
is another way to provide
information that 's more
effective," he said. "It's
something we check every
day, because the key to doing
any thing is information."
