Most of us have experienced the · downside of this at least once in our life. Another favorite is 2'l/20 hindsight. Those of you who love your automobiles probably take this to heart by: changing the oiVfilter AT LEAST as frequently as recommended; checking tire pressure; rotating tires; new spark plugs; air filter; and the list goes on. You also have to use your car as it was designed. One of the worst things you can do is allow a car to sit. While you are driving it, you listen to what it is telling you -noises (new and changing of the old familiar ones). handling characteristics. etc. It is also easier to pick up subtle changes if the car is fine-tuned. You can use this "earix warning" to prevent a sigmficant incident from happening that could cause you serious injury down the line. The same is true for your body. In January 2000, ·the Department of Health and Human Services started "Healthy People 2010," a program to fully cover promoting the nation's health and to prevent disease . Healthy People 20 I0 contain 467 objectives to improve the health of all people in the United States during the first part of the 21st century. Two far reaching goals: (I. increasing the quality and years of healthy life: and 2.e liminating the differences in health between groups of individuals) helped develop these objectives that will actually measure progress in our health as a nation. These objectives are set up into 28 focus areas, each representing an important public health area. Each obJective has a target for improvements to be achieved by the year 20 I0. A small set of the objectives, known as the Stephen Popper Leading Health Indicators. are to help everyone more easily understand the importance of health promotion and disease prevention. Browse through them and see if any apply to you I (These objecti:ves are at the end of the article) So what does this mean to you? You cannot be a passive observer regarding your health! The car analogy is a perfect example -don't take care of it and it will be more difficult to know when something is going wrong (in the early, more treatable stages); it won't last as long as it should; it won't be operating at peak efficiency; and you won't be enjoying it as much as you could be. You probably won't be collecting the retirement that you worked so hard for over the years for as long as you hoped for either. A soberin~ statistic is that those indivtduals who retire and become/remain "couch potatoes" collect their retirement for only 19 months! Keep active, mentally and physically. RUN, don't walk to Jour health care provider an ask about the thmgs you can do to enjoy your life to the fullest: cholesterol, blood pressure, blood sugar, body weight, nutrition, dental exam, full eye examination, stop smoking. exercise, mammograms, colonoscopies, bone density evaluations. The list goes on and on. The timing for these can differ among individuals based on gender. age. medical history, and family histo. ry.

"Health and Learning: A Powerful Tool" was the title of Ohio's annual coordinated school health conference which was held at Salt Fork State Park in Cambridge, Ohio, June 17- 19. I had attended this conference once before and was privi' leged to go again this year, along with two teachers and the Director of Health Services from the Gallipolis City Schools. A representative from the Department of Tobacco Prevention from Holzer Medical Center joined us also. For over a decade, educators in Ohio have had the opportunity to attend this conference. Using the principles of a "coordi_nated approach." the schrnjl districts focus on reinforcing and improving staff and student behaviors and skills. Over the years this conference. sponsored by The State Planning Committee for Health Education in Ohio (SPCHEO), has made many changes in order to meet the changing demands of the school health issues. The process assists school districts in forming a productive interdisciplinary team. These "school health teams" then assess their strengths and weaknesses, prioritize their needs and then put together an action plan that can be implemented during the school year. Some of the issues that schools have focused on are: healthier food choices in school cafeterias and vending machines, staff wellness programs, walking programs for both staff and students, and policies for tobacco free school grounds. At this year's conference, Cynthia Symons, D.Ed., Kent State University, in her keynote address, "Parent Engagement: A Foundation Janet Johnson For School Success And Risk Reduction." quoting Epstein, ASBJ, 9/01 stated" the greatest impact on student achievement comes from family participation in well-designed, at-hom~ activities. and this is true regardless of the family. racial or cultural background or the parents· formal education." She went on to say that the " cookiebaking. word processing , candy selling, shufnin~. showing up activities traditionally associated with parent involvement are not likely to have much impact on student achievement." Mrs. Symons, a strong advocate of meaningful parental involvement, says that parents m11st take an active part in all aspects. Know where your kids are and with whom they are s~nding time . Help orgamze kids' schedules and see that routines are followed. He!~ with homework. Parttcipation in homework affirms that this is important, not only to the child, but also to you. Begin reading to your children at an early age and let them read to you often as they begin to learn. Dr. Nick Baird. director of the Ohio Department of Health, recently made this observation; "It's interesting that in the 21st century-after a century in which we eliminated such killers as smallpoX-children are once again so much at risk. But nine million American children are carrying excess weight. And. if this trend continues, this generation of school children may · become the first in modem times to have a shorter life expectancy than their parents!'' Taking into consideration that childhood obesity has dominated the morning, afternoon and evening news for the past several months. and that health officials in the United States have labeled obesity an "epidem. ic" that is fueled by poor eating habits, and a lack of physical activity. it behooves us one and all to get involved . Shocking, but true. Add to that these statistics: 33.4 percent of all high school students smoke; 15.3 percent of all Ohio male high school studenli use smokeless tobacco or spit tobacco; 36,000 Ohio kids under 18 became new daily smokers at home in Ohio; 919,000 kids are exposed to secondhand smoke at home in Ohio; and 12 .5 million packs of cigarettes are bought or smoked by Ohio kids each year. What can you do? Involve the entire family in more physical activities such as biking, tennis, roller skating. bowling, and hiking. These are fun and healthy things that friends and families can do together. Keep nutrition in mind when buying snacks and keep those sweet things for special occasions. For more information on healthy eating and physical activity, contact the Gallia County Health Department at 441 2950.

"The governor all throughout the budget process fought for a higher increase in education funding for this very reason," Holubec said.

The 55-year-old David has undergone multiple surgeries and skin grafts in Toledo-area hospitals since his left leg, elbow and hand were crushed in the collision on May 23. The 16-year mayor was on his way to his manufacturing job after speaking to fourth graders about government when his car was struck head-on by a pickup. Thomas Kern, 39, of nearby Bradner was charged with drunk driving and driving left of center. The case is pending in Bowling Green Municipal Court. "He was just totally torn up on his left side," said wife !'Janey David. "It's very hard on him , and it's getting harder every day."

Police are investigating the claims. "They would never find out because I was so slick," Darrell Wayne Ferguson, 25 , told psychologist Barbara Bergman in May. "It will show how screwed-up the system works or doesn't work. They don't know their job." Detective Doyle Burke said he is working with Fer~uson and his attorneys on venfying the stories and identifying any victims. "He's cooperating with us and providing details on different incidents," Burke said. However, Ferguson has not provided specific dates, places or names, the detective said. Bergman's report said Ferguson is likely to be "unrealistic and even grandiose" .in describing his own abilities and acts. as Ferguson, known "Gator," is accused in the Dec. 26, 200 I, death of Thomas King, a 61-year-old mart on crutches; and deaths the nex.t day of Arlie Fugate, 68, and his wife, Mae, 69. Prosecutors said Ferguson stabbed the victims and stomped them with steel-toed boots. He is charged with aggravated murder, aggravated burglary and aggravated robbery. · Montgomery County Common Pleas Court Judge David A. Gowdown had ordered Bergman to evaluate Ferguson's competence after Ferguson told the judge in March he wanted to withdraw his innocent pleas and plead guilty so he could be put to death. The newspaper got a copy of Bergman's report using the state's Public Records Act. · Gowdown ruled June 26 that Ferguson is competent to take charge of his case, waive a jury trial and plead guilty at a hearing set to begin Sept. 8 before a three-judge panel. A home telephone listing could not be found for Bobby Joe Cox, one of Ferguson's attorneys, who declined comment to ·the newspaper on the psychologist's 22-page report. · Ferguson showed, no symptoms· of major mental disorder but might have a severe personality disorder that makes him impulsive and unable to care about others, Bergman wrote. Personality tests also showed he is ea,sily provoked and shows explosive anger when frustrated. Ferguson told her, "I am unpredictable and I could ' fhp' any minute - like a rage." Ferguson described himself as a practicing Satanist who abused drugs and attempted suicide at age 19; the Jeport said. At 20, Ferguson was sentenced to more than two years in prison for a burglary conviction. After his release. he was placed in a drug treatment residential house in Cincinnati, from which he 200 I budge I. That was scaled back to 2.2 percent this year. "It never would have kept districts off the ballot, and they didn't even live up .to what they said two years ago,'' Brandt said. · Marysville schools are asking voters for the lirst new levy in 10 years. superintendent Larry Zimmerman said. A 5-mill continuing operating levy would raise about $3 million a year. adding to a $34 million budge1. The district is growing by 200 students a year and added three buildings and nine building additions in the past decade. he s.1id. Every new house built in . the district brings $2.000 in revenue, while every student costs $7.000. he said. "I wish residential growth paid for the kids coming into your district." Zimmerman said. "It should, bu1 it doesn't, not according to Ohio's funding formula." In the Sheffield-Sheffield Lake City district. where a levy failed in November and May. voters are being asked to approve a tax that would raise $2.8 million toward the $15 million budget, treasurer Diana O'Hara said. "Some of our books are from 1987." O'Hara said, adding the district would look at trimming athletics and other areas if the tax fails agam. The campaign effort by vol- . unteers has included taking people to register to vote. she said. In the Coventry district south of Akron, newly hired superintendent Gary Zoldesy was among the volunteers going door-to-door over the weekend to get support for a live-year emergency levy. "When you raise taxes, it has a potential negative effect on our senior citizens who are on tixed incomes," he said. ''We· understand that.

Ohio (AP) The postponement la~t month of conVIcted killer Richurd Cooey's execution has turned the legal spotlight on the 6th U.S. Cirruit Court of Appeals once again. Cooey was spared 12 hours before the scheduled July 24 execution when U.S District Judge Dan Aaron Polster called it off Polster ruled that Cooey' s lawyer, appointed just three days earlier, needed more time to study the case. The Cmcmnati-based 6th Ctrruit. then the U.S. Supren1e Court. upheld Polster's ruling. Polster appointed Gregory Meyers. chief of the Ohio Public Defender's death penalty section. as Cooey's attorney because the 6th Circuit had dismi:;;sed hts previous attorneys on June 10. The court said it was dissatisfied with anome~s Margery Koosed. a University of Akron law professor and anti-death penalty activist and Nathan Ray. The court was mtical of the parr's court filmgs, oral arguments and billing practices. It barred them from repre_senttng any clients m federal court. Although Polster was correct to proceed wtth caution, the 6th Ctrcwt's cntictsm had nothing to do wtth Cooey's b'llilt or innocence and the execution should have been allowed to proceed, Attorney General Jim Petru's office srud Last week, Petro a~ked the 6th Circuit to explam letters it sent to Koosed and Ra)' It satd the letters "led to a great deal of confusion son hasn't been forg9tten.

During a 17 -year pro coachin~ career that began in 1960 wnh the Dallas Texan s and ended with the New Orleans Saints, Stram led the Chiefs to three AFL titles and a Super Bowl upset over Minnesota in 1970. He was presented by Hall of Farner Len Dawson, his friend of 50 years and the be st quanerback Stram has said he ever coached. Dawson spoke lovingly of Stram, focusing on the coach's passion for football and his unwavering commitment to players. "He had the ability to make each and every one of us feel special," Dawson said. "I wear a Super Bowl ring on .this hand, and a Hall of Fame ring on this one, and it's all because of Hank Stram." Shortly before Dawson 's speech, the steady rains that threatened to move the ceremony indoors stopped, and the sun briefly peeked through, allowing fans to strip off ponchos and rain gear. At about the same time, Stro~m 's speech a video montage of career highlights with his induction remarks providing the voiceover was played in Fawcett Stadium. Suddenly, there was the gregarious Stram screaming, "Come on boys, put it in there. baby" during Kansas City's 23-7 upset of the favored Vikings in Super CANTON. Ohio As Hank Stram's image appeared on the video screen and his voice filled the stadium, many of his former players hugged and cried. Their former coach was tlnally a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, a tribute all the Kansas City Chiefs felt was long overdue. "It was too late, but now he 's in there forever," running back Ed Podolak said. "Thank God he was here when it happened." Stram's induction was the emotional high point of Sunday's enshrinment ceremony for the Class of 2003 : Stram, Marcus Allen, Jan1es Lofton, Joe DeLamielleure and ElviniBethea. The 80-year-old Stram had to be pushed onto the stage in a wheelchair as 115 of the NFL's greatest names and 8.500 fans welcomed him with a standing ovation. Wearing his gold Hall of Fame blazer, Stram then watched his prerecorded induction speech that showed a fiery, charismatic and innovative coach who would one day be immortalized in Canton.
