(AP) - Hugs, tears and cheers greeted former POW Jessica Lynch 1\tesday'as she returned home nearly four months after she was wounded and captured in the Iraqi desert. "It's great to be home," the 20-year-old Army supply clerk told reporters in a highly controlled media event in Elizabeth, her first public appearance since she was rescued April I. Seated in a wheelchair, she thanked American and Iraqi doctolli who tre<Jted her and mourned the death of Lori Piestewa, a 23year-()ld Native American who died in the March 23 attack outside Nasiriyah. After her statement, she was moved to a red convertible for a motorcade through Elizabeth and the five-mile trip to her home in Palestine, a community of about 300 people. About 2,000 people lined the motorcade route along state Route 14. ''!' d like· to say thank you to everyone who helped and prayed for my return," said Lynch, clad in a service dress uniform adorned with medals awarded Monday, including the Bronze Star, Purple Heart and Prisoner of War. Lynch said she did not realize for "a long time" that her ordeal had captured the hearts of thousands around the globe. "I read thousands of letters, many of them from children, who offered messages of hope and faith," she said. Lynch's rescue quickly made an American hero out of the petite blonde who joined the Army to get an education and become · a kindergarten teacher. Even questions about the circumstances of the ambush and rescue have not dulled the public's interest in Lynch. Eleven soldiers were killed in the attack. U.S. forces rescued Lynch at a Nasiriyah hospital April I. Five other captured 507th soldiers, held apart from Lynch, were released April 13. "I'm proud to be a soldier in the Army. I'm proud to have served with the 507th. I'm happy that some soldiers I served with made it home alive. It hurts that some of my company didn't," Lynch said. Lynch thanked the medical teams at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C., and Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany who treated her. She will eontinue her rehabilitation in West Virginia. Suffering from multiple broken bones and other injuries, she had arrived at Walter ~eed , the Defense Department's largest medical facility, on April 12. Lynch is able to walk with the aid of a walker but still has trouble standing. She spent more than I00 days at Walter Reed beftlre she was released Tuesday morning. Hospital spokeswoman Beverly Chide! has said Lynch has requested a medical discharge from the Army.. a process that can take up to s1x months. Until then, she remams on active duty, Chide! said. Lynch boarded a B.lack Hawk helicopter for the mp to Win County and arrived in Elizabeth at 1:56 p.m. The crew flew over her family home, banking to give Lynch a closer look before landing at the Dick Fleak Fields, where she played softball as a youngster. She returned to a home that has been remodeled by the community to make it handicapped accessible, adding ramps, a new first-floor bedroom to accommodate her wheelchair and a bathroom equipped to meet her needs. Lynch's short motorcade was enough·for many onlookers. Natasha Flowers, 16, of Spencer said the wait "was worth it just to be able to see her. I'm glad she's home." The Wut County High School band waited, decked out in new uniforms, to serenade her, Lynch smiled and waved to the crowd. Her brother and her boyfriend, Sgt. .Ruben Contreras, rode in the back seat with her. Four State Police troopers, two on each side, walked beside the car to keep onlookers away. Lynch thanked Contrems in her brief statement, saying, "Ruben. you never let me give · up. When I wanted to quit p-t · (physical therapy), you kept . me going. And you're my inspiration and I love you." Lynch's family said Contrerds and their daughter are not engaged, but he has given her a promise ring to celebrate their relationship. · About 10 people gathered at the intersection of State . Route 14 and Mayberry Run · Road, where Lynch's family home is located. Several in the group complained that the ·motorcade was traveling too quickly for them to see Lynch. Cleo Lawson of Elizabeth, "This is her little hometown and it was a shame we could: n't see her. They should have slowed down." In a twp-hour span before Lynch arrived . in West · Virgina, more than 30 cars passed the Lynch residence with license plates from West Virginia, . Ohio, Pennsylvama, Maryland and . North Carolina. Security was tight through- · out the area. State Police sniper teams were positioned : along Lynch's motorcade · route, and Division 0 ( Natural Resource s ·staff patrolled the Little Kanawha River, which flows beside the . park.

Eagle found the toe in the muck of a creek bed. "It didn't make sense," sheriff's Lt. Bob Albright said. "I've been doing this for 30 years and I've seen a lot of accident victims. I've seen a lot of limbs that have come off." Albright said the toe was . neatly severed instead of appearing torn off. Two weeks later, the body was found - with both feet still in boots and all 10 toes intact. Justice The · U.S. Department filed charges against Anderson, of Midland, Mich., last month in a Detroit federal court, accusing her of planting human bones at ·crime scenes between October 2000 and April 2002. Anderson denied the charges of witness tampering and lying to investtgators, saymg Tuesday that she did not know how the toe got into the creek bed. She has refused · prosecutors' attempts to get her to agree to a plea deal on the charges in a bill of information, she said. "I just haven't done anyth!ng: I'm just puttin~ my fa1th m the system, wh1ch is really scary," she said. "I couldn't live with myself if I didn't speak out." She said there are numerous explanations why stray body parts might tum up ' duting searches. "It's not just a dog handler that locates remains. Other individuals stumble across parts of our history," she said. "You could search a farmer's field and find a family plot." FBI age'nts have been investigating her for about I 112 years in connection with the Michigan and Ohio cases, she said. Agents have searched her apartment and seized paperwork related to the searches. Anderson said she is not paid for the 200 searches she completes each year for police departments and historical preservation agencies across the country. They have searched for mass graves in Bosma and Panama, and helped search for victims of the United Airlines jetliner that crashed in southwestern P~nnsylvania after being hiJacked as part of the Sept.

During the business meeting it was noted that the camo·had received $600 from its n~tional organization for the "Last Soldiers Project." This project is to identify the last living Union soldier in each county and then to place a marker at his grave identifying him as such. The camp will be marking soldiers for Gallia, Meigs, and Lawrence Counties. Plans were also made to assist I 40th celebration of Emancipation Day in Gallia County. This is the oldest eelebration of its kind in the United States. James Oiler, camp commander, has met with the committee. The national commander-in-chief of the Sons of Union Veterans of Detroit, Mich. , will attend. Also, the national president and senior national president of the Daughters of Union Veterans of the Civil War will be coming for the event. Whitney Ashley. president of the Ohio Department Ladies of the Grand Army of the Republic, will be attend· ing as well. The celebration will be held Sept. 192 1. The camp is also planning to participate in the Vinton Bean Dinner at Vinton, considered the oldest Civil War bean dinner in the country. The parade will be at II a.m. on Aug. 2. P. Scott McElroy of Columbus was voted into melnbership based on hi s ancestor, Capt.' Joseph C. McElroy of Company K. 18th Ohio Volunteer Infantry. Pvt. McElroy is buried iii Racine and served as the postmaster of the U.S. House of Representatives and the head of Ohio's Chickamauga ' Commission to place monuments at the battl efield after the Civil War. Keith Ashley reported locating an actual living descendan! of Lt. Col. Cyrus Grant for whom the camp is partly named. He is Howard W. Verwolht of Hilliard. A visit is planned with the family. Gerald Crawford of Letart Falls gave two reports. One was on his job as delegate for the camp to the Ohio Department encampment. He reported that Commander-inChief Grim presented him and Keith Ashley with certificates of service for representing the Sons of Union Veterans at the funeral of the last living Union widow, Gertrude Janeway. The camp's resolution asking the federal government to relieve gun manufacturers of product liability for illegal use of guns was passed and will be referred to the national convention. Crawford also reported that he and Ashley had attended a hearing at Fredericksburg, Va. , with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers regarding permits to a land developer who wishes to build a development on the Chancellorsville Battlefield. A meeting was held with Jimmy Stewan, state representative, regarding obtaining funds for Buffington Island Battlefield preservation. The camp received word that its request to the Ohio Histo1ical Society for repair of the main battle monument there was granted. A discussion was held on the actions of the Ohio Health Department to be relieved of its job of serving the tax-paying public to its full capacity. The budget bill had a provision slipped into it to outlaw uncertified copies of birth and · death records in health offices. These copies had cost 25 cents. Meigs County has taken this a stepfunher and is denying all access to these records, according to Ashley. A health office birth and death record now can only be issued certified at a cost of $15. The false premise that it would protect against identity theft was used in getting this passed, according to Ashley. A major Ohio newspaper consulted the F.B.I. about the number of cases of identity theft and found out that none had occurred using these records. The camp voted to contact state legislators and ask that a bill be introduced retu!lling to issuance of non-certified copies. These records are vital to the ability of applicants to document their ancestry to join the Sons of Union Veterans.

Wednesday, July 23, 2003 · The neoliberal take on the Middle East By Ronald D. Aamus and Kennalh M. Pollack The Washington Post www.mydallysentlnel.com Ohio Valley Publishing Co. Page4 A consensus is emerging in Washington that the greater Middle East constitutes the primary strategic challenge of our time and that the West · must fundamentally rethink the. way it approaches this reg1on. In the past, Washington assumed it didn't have to care about the internal order of these countries so long as they accommodated our interests in their foreign policies. If things got really bad, Washington would step in and intervene, in a modernday version of the popular game whack-a-mole. But whack-a-mole isn't a very good game, and it's an even worse foreign policy. Sept. II, 200 I, taught us the price we pay for ignoring the underlying problems of the region. The question now is how best to transform the Middle East so that it no longer produces people who want to kill us in great numbers and increasingly have the ability to do so. To be sure, traditionalists across the government and in foreign policy still argue that such goals are beyond the pale and that the West cannot possibly "solve" the problems of the region and must instead manage the status quo better to limit our risk. But this approach is rapidly losing out, and for good reason; if Las Vegas were giving odds, this wouldn't be a good bet. Instead, the debate is increasingly between the neoconservative strategy of coercive democratization and what might be called the neoliberal alterna- tive emerging among intcrna- boils.

So the United States is stuck with the job, and it\ diffi cult to rotate troops already stretched too far. The resulting uncertainty and the continuing guerrilla attacks are taking their toll.

"A lot of my friends got sick after the war," said Sheehan-Miles, who founded the National Gulf War Resource Center and is now executive director of the Nuclear · Policy Research lnst1tute. One of the institute's goals is greater untlerstanding of the health impacts from the depleted uranium weapons that the United Srates used in both wars _ against Iraq. Now, the Gulf War center argues, the Pentagon is not sufficiently monitoring troops to help deal later with ill ness that may arise from depleted uranium ordnance or other factors. All this adds up to an administration that gives its troops, in the words of the Army Times headline, "Nothing but lip service."

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -Gov . .Bob Taft on Tuesday denied the clemency request of a man convicted of raping and killing two University of Akron students. Richard Cooey. 36, is scheduled to die by injection Thursday. He has an appeal pending in the Ohio Supreme Court on a claim of ineffective legal help and a request before the U.S. Supreme Court to review his case. Taft, a Republican, said there was no doubt that Cooey was guilty of "the senseless murders" of Dawn McCreery and Wendy Offredo in 1986. Every court reviewing Couey's case concluded he received a fair trial and had adequate legal help, the governor said. Taft also said the brutality of the crime, in which McCreery and Offredo were raped and beaten to death, outweighed any factors Cooey presented in his argument that his life should be spared. Taft's decision was in line with the Ohio Parole Board's July II recommendation to deny clemency. The board, in a unanimous decision, said <;:ooey continues to play down his role in his victims' deaths, despite his recent expression of remorse .

Also Tuesday, Koosed and Akron attorney Nathan Ray asked the Ohio Supreme Court to review Couey's claim that he received ineffective legal help during his original appeal before the 9th Ohio District Court of Appeals in 1987.

He got some swelling of the hand and arm, but he also ran a low-grade fever and had pain in his elbows and knees. Can a bee sting do this? Should I worry about any long-term effects? Answer: Thi s is the season for bee and other venomous insect stings. Your body's response can range from almost nothing at all to severe, life-threatening reactions that doctors call anaphylaxis. Prevention is by far the best therapy, and there are several measures you can take to avoid insect stings. Stinging insects are attracted to specific odors and fragrances. Food and garbage containers are alluring to yellow jackets, who will attack without provocation. Perfumer cologne, and open soda containers are appealing to hornets and wasps. Many of these "stingers" can also be attracted by fragrances in hair spray and hair gels. Finally, brightly colored clothing, especially with a floral print can be a magnet for stinging insects. These critters aren't real smart and can easi ly mi stake you for a flower when you're decked out in this kind of garb.

Ohio brief Lawsuit seeks to deregulate wine shipments to Ohio COLUMBUS (AP) - A lawsuit is seeking to ease restrictions on importing wine to.Ohio customers. · Ohio law prohibits out-ofstate winemakers from shipping bottles to Ohio unless the wine is unavailable from an in-state retailer. For permitted shipments, Ohio customers must complete an application and pay a tax, which is about 75 cents on a case of table wine. The lawsuit, filed earlier this month in federal court in Columbus, claims the restrictions give in-stale wineries "a direct economic advantage" over their out-o!~state counterparts. which violates the commerce clause of the U.S. Constitution. In-state wineries are permitted to ship to customers in Ohio. Robert Epstein, an Indianapolis lawyer working on the lawsuit . said producers of mlilre expensive, scarce wines shut out Ohio con sumers because of the regulations. wasps. These membranewinged ins.ects are collectively called "hymenoptera." This name is derived from the Greek words "hymen" meaning membrane and "ptera" meaning wings. About one percent of people will have severe allergic reactions to .stings by hymenoptera. This is what I referred to earlier as an anaphylactic reaction. A "normal" reaction to an insect sting is some redness, pain and swelling at the site of the sting. At times, the affected area may be fairly extensive and be accompanied by fever, swollen glands and joint pain later on . This is apparently what your son experienced. The joint pain and fever sometimes doesn't develop until seven to 14 days after the sting, but this is rare. The potentially life-threatening anaphylactic reaction. on the other hand, is usually evident within twenty minutes of the sting. Signs of this severe reaction can include hives, itching or swelling in areas other than the sting site, throat constriction, difficulty breathing, tongue swelling, nausea, vomiting and fainting. If you are ·around someone who has this kind of reaction to an insect sting, call an ambulance and get him or her to the hospital at once. People who are severe! y allerjlic should carry medications hke epinephrine . and benadryl with them at all times and wear a medical alert tag . There are allergy kits that your doctor can prescribe. If you have only a mild body response to an insectsting, I'd recommend applying ice to the area to help minimize the spread of the reaction. You might also want to try over-the-counter Iike antihistamines, benadryl, to help reduce swelling. Applying a paste made of baking soda paste or meat tenderizer to the site can help relieve the pain from thesting. Generally. these localized sting reactions resolve without conse" quence in a few days. But remember. prevention is always better than treatment. ( Familv Medicine® is a weekly column.

Photos of Saddam's sons' corpses to be released WASHINGTON (AP) The United States. trying to prove to &keptical Iraqis that two of Saddam Hussein ' s sons are dead, soon will release photographs of their bodies, Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld says. Some Iraqis have called on U.S. authorities to prove that Odai and Qusai Hussein were killed in a shootout with American forces in the north· ern Iraqi city of Mosul on Tuesday. U.S. officials debat· ed whether to release the photos, likely to be gruesome because of the way the two men were killed. Armstrong still leads Tour de France. See Page 81 · o Trib~;; beats Tigers.

See Page 81 "The disbelief runs very deep, and it goes 'to the level almost of paranoia," Deputy Def~nse Secretary Paul Wolfowitz said Wednesday on PBS' " NewsHour With Jim Lehrer" program. "One of the great effects of yester· day for Iraqis is to demonstrate our seriousness." Rumsfeld , speaking with reporters on Capitol Hill after briefing members of Congress, said he had not decided when the photos would be released. But he said it would be "soon." Wolfowitz and other Bush administration officials said the that Saddam no longer has any influence in Iraq, they said. "Now more than ever all Iraqis can know that the former regime is gone and will not be coming back;" President Bush said Wednesday. Saddam probably is help· ing to coordinate those attacks, Wolfowitz said. "Lf he 's alive, I think he 's contributing to it," he said . , . Earlier Wednesday, Wolfowitz said American officials underestimated the strength of resistance in lraq by Saddam's supporters and have .done other "stupid things" there. .

A hearing on the proposed ordinance was scheduled for Tuesday, but after it was discovered no legal notice of the meeting had been published in The Daily Sentinel, the meeting was postponed. A new date ahd time will be announced later , IJljs week, Mayor Sandy lannarelli said. The meeting date and time were reported, however, in numerous newspaper accounts of the proposed regulations. Councilman Roger Manley, who owns rental mobile homes in the village and who has voiced opposition to the proposed tighter regulations, (>laced a display advertisement m the newspaper earlier this week, asking the public to attend the hearing, and approximately 25 people did attend - some obviously in support of the proposed ordinance, and others as obviously opposed. The ordinance sets forth stricter regulations for the place· ment of mobile and manufactured homes in the village. It prohibits residents from moving home than five years of age into the village, and sets forth miniurn size regulations for mobile home lots. The regulations proposed also prohibits mobile homes as rental units, and requires that all mobile homes be owner-occupied . The proposal also would give village council discretion in refusing permission to anyone to park a mobile home or manufactured home in the village if the home is considered unfit for occupancy. Mobile homes now located in the village - and there are now 189- would be exempt from the regulations contained m the pro· posed new ordinance, althOI!~h 25 percent of those are located m zoned areas where manufactured homes are prohibited . The Middleport Planning Commission sees the proposal as a means of increasing property val ues in the village and increasing revenue through property taxes on conventional homes.

"It was difficult to imagine before the war that the criminal gang of sadists and gangsters who have run Iraq for 35 years would continue fight· ing, fighting what has been sometimes called a guerrilla war," said Wolfowitz, the second-ranking official at the Pentagon. Separately, the head of the U .S.-led occupation force in Iraq said he plans to have electricity, water and health care back to prewar levels in two months. L. Paul Bremer, the U.S .
