REED breed@ mydailysentinel.com POMEROY - The Fourth District Court of Appeals has denied Meigs County Sheriff Ralph Trussell' s request for an order providing additional funding for his office. In an opinion filed Thursday, the court voted two to one to deny Trussell's motion for a writ of mandamus, ruling lhat the county commissioners have no duty to appropriate all funds Trussell has requested, and thai no statute exists requiring full funding . The court also found that the commissioners did not abuse their discretion by appropriating less than Trussell requested last year for this year's operalions. Through Athens Tru11ell Attorney Herman Carson , Tru ssell filed his motion wilh the appeals court asking them to order the commissio.ners to fully fund his 2003 budget request. Citing dwindling revenue and increases in unfunded mandales t'rom the state and federal levels, the commissioners have imposed budget cul s ac.ross the board to county offices for the last two years. Trussell 's requesl of $738,384.50 was cut to $65 1,963.62 when commi ssioners approved lheir 2003 counly general fund budget. an 8 percent cut. Trussell al so asked the court to order paymenl of $140.000 spent in 2002 without an appropriation. In June. Trussell was forced to lay off his entire staff of deputies and all office staff but one part-time clerk. because his salaries line item was depleted. Deputies were returned towork last month, and will likely continue working through the end of the year using funds remaining in line items set aside for housing and food for prisoners. "Because we find that the board has no duty to appropriate all the funds requested by the sheriff. that no special statute requires full fund· ing of the office of sheriff, and that Ple•se He Denied.

Mears, 25, is the nephew of four-time Indianapolis SOO winner Rick Mears. His fa ther, Roger, raced Indy cars occasionally aM was an accomplished off-road racer. Yet Casey is trying lo make his mark in NASCAR. He has a long way to go. He's yet to finish better than 15th in a race. The season highlight is a fourth-place starting position in July at Chicagoland Speedway. "It's tough for me, because I want to win races," Mears said. "I'm not real happy with being mediocre, and that's what we've been this year. I guess that's what is making us better. "The team is not hap py with that, and I'm noi happy with it. We've got to keep getting belter, and we want to win races. We all do. We'll keep working hard at it, and we'll get il someday." Mears fini shed 2l't in the Bu sch Series points standings in 2002, but he finished in the top five only once. He qualified second for a race at Nashville Superspeedway. He competed in four CART races in 2001, twice finishing in the top 10. His best career finish in CART was in his very first race, when he finished fourth at California Speedway in With two races to go, Casey Mears sits 35th In the . points standings. By comparison, Mears' rookie teammate at Chip Ganassl Racing - Jamie McMurray - Is 14th In points.

Darlene received assurances from the Tennessee-bused ve ndor that there we re plemy of c u ~tomers tu go around for someone who wunted to get started in the hair bow business. From that interaction, "C.J. 's Bows" began to take shape. At first , Darl ene thou ght thi1t selling hair bows would be a nice suppl ement to her income as a part -time bookkeeper, and later. as a school bus dri ver. "I was looking for so me extra income to pav the bill s. 1 also wanted to meet , nice. -friendl y people. and the people that bought tt1e bows seemed to be genuinely happy people." says Darlene. The early days of C.J. 's. Bows were hard work. with Darlene drivin o around northern Mississippi selling h ~i r bows ou t of the back of her car at craft fa irs and . making the rounds of shoppi ng mall s. Her first year sales in 199 1 were around $7,000 . All of that was the resu lt of Darlene's time on the road and working out of her home. But Darl ene knew that she needed help to better market her rapidly growing line of hair bows. Help for C.J .'s Bows came from Beth Duncan. who works as a small bu siness speci al ist for Miss iss ippi State's Uni versity Extension Service. She was leading a seminar on " Basic Bu siness Start-Up" in Holl y Springs when Darlene came by to learn more about managing her growing business. She and Beth began a relati onship that would eventually lead to C.J.'s Bows having its own Web site. As Beth and Darlene worked togcther. it became clear to Beth that C.J .'s Bows would be an ideal candidate for a new e-commerce/lnternet retailing program , funded by the Appalachian Re gional Commission (ARC). This program was desi gned to support an existing small business th at wis hed to add an Internet sales component to its sales mix. After being se lected as the case study for the ARC gram, Darlene worked for several months with Beth and her staff to learn how to design a web site and manage. tt ·on a datly bas1s.

Gallipolis Garden Club learns about winter preparation New Haven officials continued ignore warnings. RepeateJ warnings by the DEP gave town official s no option but to make repairs and increase the rates. The DEP charged that New Haven's sewer system was overflowing and discharging raw sewage into the Ohio River when rai ns were heavy. Smith admitted that there was a problem with the drying beds being too small to adequately dry the sewage in times of heavy rain, but the town has already begun to address the problem. The belt press that was recently purchased by the tow n will allow moisture to be pressed out of the sewage so that only the solids are left in the drying beds, helping take care of the problem. They are also tryi ng to di sconnec t any gutters that tlow directly into the sewer line. Sewer ofl'icials explained that water was also leaking into manholes -which had lost mortar between the bricks because of age - and putting more water into an already overl oaded system. Relining the manholes will help to eliminate the problem and is another step that the town will take to remove water from the sewage. The reduced sewage will help lower treatment costs at the same time. Smith sa id that they would continue to make repai rs over a period of time until the system was completely up to date. .

It was only the latest sign that the Medicare overhaul - a $400 billion project that represents the program 's biggest change in 38 years - is veering dangerously off course. Here's the plot summary so far. The House and Senate have each passed a bill accompli shing the basic goal: creating a much -needed prescription drug benefit for Medicare and its 44 million elderly patients. But House and Senate negotiators · have now locked themselves away behind closed doors for weeks- with Democrats excluded- and are battling over a vast new set of issues, such as raising premiums for the wealthy, changing the way that Medicare pays for home care and whether governors would have to pick up mgre of the bill for what bas been a federal program.... .. . M ake no mistake, Medicare has serious. problems - it costs too much and covers too little. But lawmakers will have to do extraordinary work in precious few weeks to produce a brand new structure that actually improves the quality and efficiency of health care for elderly Americans. I have here a news item that alert reader Diane Moore clipped out of the Oct. L I , 2002, issue of the Pana, Ill., (actual News-Palladium motto: "Containing More News About the Pana Trade Area Than A ll Other Newspapers in the World"). Thi s item consists of a grainy black-and-white photograph of two men, one in · bib overalls. They're sitting ·at a table or bar, lookin g at . the camera with serious, somewhat self-conscious expressions. In front of them is a white piece of paper, on which sits a small , darkish object. There is no way to tell what thi s object is from looking at the photo. The caption states, in its entirety: "Unusual Walnut( s) Found - While cutting wood one day last week, A ndrew Bennett,· left, and Tom Bennett, fou nd a strange looking walnut. It is actually two walnuts that grew on one stem." · ' Ye s' A Siamese walnu t' And the News-Palladium "got the scoop." You may laugh, but ask yourself thi s question: Which is more interesting? T he· Siamese walnut ? Or Britney Spears? . I res t my case. The Siamese-walnut story reminded me of when I was a cub reporter 30 years ago at a newspaper in West Chester, Pa. , c.alled (really) the Daily Local News, which was very local, and which routine ly publi shed photographs of Dav1" Barry ----• unu sua l local vegetubles. Like, a local resident might show up with u zucchin i that, from a certain angle. vague ly resemb led Bob Hope; the Daily Local News wou ld definitely cover th at. Of course. we younger. hipper jou rnali sts thought thi s was embarrassing. We wanted to do Relevant stori es about Major Issues such as Watergate - which, throu gh an incred ible stroke of bad luck for us, was not taking place in th e We st Chester area. So in an effort to " localile·· big national stories, we'd do Man in the Street interv iews. wherein we ' d .go ou t ami ask the random puhlic to express its views. l recall walki ng around the Exton M all for hours. asking the pub I ic what it th ought about the Senate Judiciary Commillee he<u'mgs. This W<ls fru strat ing, because the public, at least at the Exton Mall, was not thinking about the Senate Judiciary Committee. T he publi c wou ld gamel y try to come up wi th meaningful quotes for me. but the publi c was clearly more interested in findin g towel s to match its curtains. Also, I bet. the Bob Hope zucchini. Speaking of news stories about growing things: Alert reader Dianne Smith sent in an article from the July 23 issue of the Sandersvi lle (Ga.) Progress. On the front page is the following headl ine: "Local woman sues doctor after twig grows on leg,." I didn ' t bother to read the article. Just kidding' I read the article wi th far more interest than I have ever had in any story whose headline contain ed the words "Fede ral Reserve Board." Th~ story concerns a Sandersville wo man who was treated by an emergency-room . doctor for a cut she received on her. th igh when "she fell into some box wood shrubbery in her yard. " The story sta tes th at nine months later, the woman went to another' doctor, and - I am not making thi s quote up - " he noticed a stem had su rfaced on her leg with fi ve thriv ing green leaves." T he. doctor "con cl uded thF stem was alive and feasting" on the ,woman's leg. Nee dless to say, the woman is suing for pain and suffering, plus medical expen ses. wh ich presumabl y ,.include pruning. But thi s sto'ry rai ses some troublin g que stions: • What if the second doctor had not not ice d the stem? Would it have continu ed thriving, ultimately becoming a full-blown boxwood shrub on the woman 's thigh, causing her no end of embarrassment in Dancercize class? • lsn ' t it just a tad alarming that boxwood shrubbery is capable of "feasting" on a human thigh~ What if word of thi s capability gets around the boxwood community? What if more shrubs including shrubs that are part of large, powerful, organized hedges- develop a taste for human flesh? lt could be very bad: TOM BROKAW: I n our top story tonight, investigators remain baffled by the rash of mysterious di sappearances involving groundskeepers. INVESTIGATOR: It's the weirdest thing: Their hedge trimmers are lyi ng on the ground , sometimes still running, but there' s no sign of their bodies. Also there 's a strange burping noise coming from somewhere. Yes, it 's a troubling story, and I have yet to see one word about it in the so-called " major" new s media. They' re too "big" for this kind of story. They won't report it until a boxwood twig grows on Ben Affleck or J-Lo. Speaking of Siamese walnuts. (Dave Barrv is a humor columnist fo~ rhe Miami Hem/d.

' Clipper Fund's long history pays qff Few funds within th e mutual fund universe have had the same captain at the helm for two decades, but the Clipper Fund i s one of them . Dian When James Gipson first Vujovich created the fund in 1983, its clipper ship logo was remi niscent of the three years he' d spent as an officer in the U.S. Navy. Since then, ope ned with $3,000 ; monththe fund has sai led throu gh ly automatic inves tm ent both smooth and rough mar- programs, with $ 150 per ket s - always with an eye month . Here's more from Gipson toward value investing.

A: Well , if the fact s cl1an ge. There is a classi c exc hange between John Maynard Key nes, the Briti sh economi st, and a Congress man who accused Keynes of changin g hi s mind. Keynes said, " If the facts ch«nge, I change my mind . What do you do, sir?" If th ere is a change of facts then we w ill change our va luation and update our values based on the new data points. But the basic idea remains the same; buy it when it's at a sizeable discount to its intrinsic value. Q: Wh y did you choose to crea te a non -diversified fund? A: Most funds are far too diversified . Look in investment management textbooks and you'll see that you onl y need 13 or 14 stocks to get 90 percent diversificatio~ .

A: We've been seeil!g an in stant replay in thi s market li ke we saw during the peri od of the late '90s when the stock market had risen to generous levels led by tech stocks. We generally stay away from situations that we don 't understand. And there are a number of technology and biotech stocks th at are not understandable or are unpredictable (to us) as far as their future business is concerned. So we stay away from those that we don ' t have a realistic assessment of. Plus, for the last six months we had been rai sing cash in the fund. Q: Who is thi s fund ideally suited for? · A: Anyone investing in long-term asse ts, and commoo stocks are definitely long-term assets, should see this as a medium-ri sk type of an mvestment.

Ohio wins round in dispute about religious freedom in prison CINCIN NATI (AP) Legal sc holars disagree with an appeal s court ruling th at a 3-year-old federal law giving inmates the right to gather for worship or follow religious dietary prac tices is unconstitutional. The Religious Land Use and Inst itu tionali zed Persons Act prohibits governm ents from limiting the religious freedom of people in pri sons and oth er in stitutions that receive federal funds unl ess there's a·compe lling reason. A three-judge panel of the ht h U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Friday th ai the law violated the const ituti onal clause stating "Congress shall make no law respecting an establi shment of reli gion." The law "has the prim ary effect of adva ncing religion ," Judge Ronald Gi lman wrote. David Goldberger. an Ohio State University law professor represe nting 156 Ohio prisoners in the case, said he is considering asking the full appeals court or the U.S. Supreme Court to review the rul ing. Either· one mi ~ht reverse the decision, satd Charl es Haynes, senior scholar at the First Amendment Center in Arl ington, Va. " I think the panel got it wro ng," he said. "Thi s is a · minority view in the courts and one that I think will nor prevail. "That's just not the type of country we want to li ve in, where we can't try to acco m- modate th e religious conscience of people." Jud ges in tive federal appeals circuits and two U.S. Di stri ct courts have said the law is constitutional, while . the 6th Circuit and at least two tederal dis(fict rulings say it's not, the judges noted in Friday's ru ling. "In a conflict like· thi s. th at's a very good road to the (U.S.) Supreme Coutt," said . Jesse Choper. a law professor at the Universit y of California at Berkeley.

The two 82nd Airborne Division soldiers died when a homemade bomb exploded beside their vehicle about 8:30a.m. in Fallujah, a center of Sunni Muslim resistance 40 miles west of Baghdad, the military said. Their deaths brought to 34 the number of American soldiers who have died in Iraq this month as resistance escalated during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. In Geneva, meanwhile, the international Red Cross said Saturday it was temporarily closing its offices in Baghdad and Basra because of security. The Red Cross had planned to cut back on foreign staff after the Oct. 27 truck-bombing at its Baghdad office but had planned to keep the offices open with reduced staff. "We decided that in view of an extremely dangerous ami volatile situation that we would have to temporarily close our offices in Baghdad and Basra," said Florian Westphal, spokesman for the International Committee of the Red Cross. The Red Cross maintains a st~ff of about 30 foreign staffers and 600 l.raqi s. In Mosul, 250 miles north of Baghdad, guerri llas fired six mortar rounds ~t a police station in the city, Iraqi police said Saturday. Several shells missed their target and fell on nearby houses, slightly injuring a resident. The city, which was once considered to be relatively free of guerrilla activity, has seen dozens of attacks on U.S. forces in recent weeks, indicating that the rebellion has spread northward from its original stronghold in the socalled Sunni Triangle north and west of Baghdad. Troops in the city recovered seven shoulder-launched SAM-7 Strela anti-aircraft missiles, the military said Saturday. Six were turned in by a citizen in exchange for a monetary reward, a statement said, while ar1 infantry patrol found the seventh hidden in tall grass. Patrols also found a weapons cache consisting of 33 3 hand grenades, '12 rocket-propelled grenades and two RPG launchers, and arrested seve n men believed to have been involved in previous attacks. The military also said that a man suspected of having served as one of Saddam 's bodyguards was detained Saturday in the northern oil city of Kirkuk . In Friday's helicopter crash, all six U.S. soldiers aboard were killed, capping the bloodiest seven days in Iraq -for Americans since the fall of Baghdad. The cause of the crash remains uncertain although several U.S. officers believe it was shot down. The U.S. command said in a statement Saturday that initial findings "discount the use of surface-to-air missiles as a possible cause." U.S. officers have long been concerned about the safety of aviation because of the hundreds, perhaps thou- sands, of shoulder-fired missi les still missing In Iraq after the collapse of Saddam's regime in April. On Oct. 25, insurgents shot down a Black Hawk over Tikrit, injuring one crewman. On Sunday, insurgent gunners brought doivn a Chinook · ', transport helicopter west of Baghdad. killing 16 Americans in the bloodiest single strike against U.S. forces since the war began March 20. An Apache attack helicopter was shot down in June in the western desert but the two crewmembers escaped injury. Following th.e crash, Lt. Col. Steven Russell, commander of the Ist Battalion, 22nd Infantry Regiment, also said U.S. forces had reimposed the II p.m. to 4 a.m. curfew on Tikrit, which had been lifted at the start of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan last month. "Thi s is to remind the town that we have teeth and claws and we will use them," Russell said after his troops blasted two abandoned houses and a warehouse with machine gun and heavy weapons fire . U.S. troops late Friday also fired mortars and jets dropped at least three 500pound bombs around the crash site , rattling windows over a wide area. Other U.S. jets streaked over Tikrit after sundown. At least three mortars were also fired onto the U.S. compound but caused no damage.

Unfortunately, a multifaceted Yellow Jackets running game and more costly big plays doomed the Wildcats as Duval won the game 40- 16. The Yellow Jackets (1-9) used their home field to their advantage as an early 72-yard touchdown run from Marty Lovejoy set the tone for the game. As the game went on, Duval countered every attempt made by Hannan to get back into the game. After racing out to a 16-0 lead in the first quarter, Duval never allowed the Wildcats to narrow the lead to less than 16 points for the rest of the game. The main reason behind this was the strong first half running of Lovejoy, who rushed nine times for 121 yards and two touchdowns in the first half. This successful ground game allowed the Yellow Jackets to sustain long drives and run down the clock. As for Hannan (0-10), injuries hurt the Wildcats yet again as Wesley Gue was out for the game with an ankle injury, and ·many other players were slowed by a flu bug traveling through the school. With Gue out of the game, Hannan turned to the dependable straight ahead runmng of fullback Adam Lester and tailback Cody Finley. Lester and Finley ran consistently all night and kept the Wildcats moving on offense, but lacked the big play ability that Gue displayed so well against Bishop Donahue when he broke for big runs.

Duval used a surprising combination of seven different running backs to wear out a tired Wildcats defense and set up long drives. The constant changes at runnin~ back, along with the runnmg of quarterback Brian Lineville, kept the Hannan defense on the field for far too long and made hopes for a comeback remote .. With their success on the ground, the Yellow Jackets rarely passed the ball · and punted only once, while taking advantage of two Hannan fumbles, converting them into touchdowns. However, the Wildcats fought back usin g some unconventional plays and hy making the big play when absolutely necessary. Down 24-0 midway through the second quarter, Wildcats defender Dustin Simpkins broke through the Yellow Jackets line and blocked a punt to give the Wildcats excellent field position . Hannan wasted little. time capitalizing on their good fortune as Lester and Finley lead the offense 29 yards before Finley scored from one yard out to cut the lead to 16 points.

Jeff Smoker passed for 351 yards .for the Spartans (7-3, 4-2), but 265 yards came in the opening half. Ben H~~JtSock, Santonio Holmes and Ryan Hamby . caught touchdown passes from Krenzel, who missed most of last week's 21-20 victory over Penn State . because of a mild concussion. Krenzel, now 22-2 as a starter, completed · 12 of 23 passes for 213 yards wit!J Of~!! :interception and added 33 yards rushing on 14 attempts. He entered the game with only six m passes this season, two in the last . four games. · : The Buckeyes won their 15th consecu: live home game before a crowd of I05, 194, ., the second largest ever at Ohio Stadium. Ohio State took the second-half kickoff and needed just .eight plays to cover 80 yards, with Krenzel hittmg tight end Ryan Hamby on a 2-yard play-action pass for a 24-10 lead. On the kickoff, however, the Spartans' DeAndra Cobb sped up the middle and then cut to the right sideline untouched for a 93-yanl touchdown return - his third TO return of the season. It was the first kickoff return for a score against Ohio State since Michigan State's Larry Jackson also went 93 yards against the Buckeyes in 1984.

Michigan State led 7-3 and was moving steadily downtield for another scone early in ihe .second period. On second down at the Ohio State 18, Smoker backpedaled and was pressured, underthrowing the ball down the left sideline. Everett picked off the pass at the 6 and streaked 66 yards to the Michigan State 28. · Ohio State picked up one yard on the · ne11t two plays but then benehted from an .' offsides and a dead-ball personal-foul penalty to get a first down at the II . Michigan State - the most penalized team in the Big Ten - had 12 penalties for 89 yards, many killing drives or extending Oh10 State possessions. After Krenzel was sacked by Cliflord Dukes on second down .for a 7-yard loss, the Buckeyes faced a third and 16 at the 17. But Krenzel stepped up in the closing pocket to avoid trouble and whipped a pass to the left flat where tight end Ben Hartsock rumbled into the end zone for the scone and a 10-7lead. Michigan State punted on its next possession and Ohio State wa~ted no time in making it 17-7.

Chad John so n is makin g anoth er guara ntee. The brash rece ive r has promi sed fans so mething memorable Sunday during a pivotal game in the Cinci nnati Benga ls' ren aissance season. A big win '' No, a lillie .;horeog raph y. " I' ve got an end zone ce lebrati on," he said . " I' ve got a treat. Y' all come out and support us." Th e Hou ston Texan s would love to shut him down and shut him up. During the Tex ans' twoyear hi story. no one has gotte n unde r their skin quite like John son , who burst into the national spotlight at their expense last year. The Bengal s were 0-7 and a national punch line when John son flat-out guaranteed th at the losing streak would end against the expansion Te~an s . The guarantee brought more ri dicule - until it came true . The Texan s were so infuriated by the guarantee that they set out to make Johnson eat his words. Instead , they played like a di stracted team and . wound up with a 38 -3 loss , the most lopsided defeat in their 24-game hi story. " We let the whole week leading up to that become too overwhelming for some of the guys," quarterback David Carr said . "We didn 't play with enough fire. When someone call s you out like th at, you should go out and try to do a lillie more than we did : " None of the guy s here is ~ oin g ·to guarantee anythin g, but I do see us coming out there harder than we did here last year." Houston (3-5) . is acting like it's the team with somethin g to prove thi s week. Coach Dom Capers put the score of last year's game up in the team's me~ ting room during the week, a reminder that some amend s hav e yet to be made . "That defeat really has bee n the ·most signifi cant defeat that we' ve had since we ' ve been here," Capers said. A victory Sunday would be one of the more significant ones for the Texan s, who have never won backto-buck games . Backup quarterback :rony. Banks · led them to a 14-10 vtctory over Carolina last Sunday, and Carr is expected to return from a sprained ankle to Gtart against the Bengals. It 's a chance to show that they can measure up . "You ' re not going to be a good football team unti I you win two games in a row," Carr said. The Bengals (3-5) also have a chance to show they measure up. A victory would keep them in contention in the weak AFC North and leave them with in meaningful games November- a real rarity in their little corner of the NFL. "They're 3-5, we're 3-5, we both need this game," Bengals tight end Matt Schobel said . "We expect them to come in and give us their best shot, no matter what Chad says ." This time , the chatty receiver isn't making any guarantees about the outcome . For one thing, Johnson got out of the prediction bu siness when Marvin Lewis took over as head coach and demanded professionalism. And , Johnson figures no guarantee - other than that promise of a touchdown eel- ebration - is needed to get th e Benga ls motivnted . They were down -an d-out last year when he sp iced up the week be fore their first win . " We were doing rea l bad at that point in time ." John son sa id . "We've bee n doin g well ." Th ey ' ve al ready surpassed th eir victory total for last season, and we re starting . to view th emselves as playoff contende rs before a 17- 14 loss last Sunday in Arizona provided a reality check . Had they won the ga me and headed into November with a break-eve n record. the NFL'' worst team si nce 1991 could have legitima tely argued that the bad days were a thin g of the past. Instead , they let th e pressure get to them and numbled . Jon Kitna th re w three interce ption s - one was nullified by penalty - and at least two other passe s th at should ha ve bee n pi cked off. '' You wanted to win that game badly, and yo u understood that it was an awesome opportunity for this team 10 really get on a legi timate roll and ha ve no limit," Kitna said . " As disappointing as it was, you ha ve 10 rebound qui ckly . That makes thi s game very crucial." It ' II be cru cial for the Bengals ' credibility as well . Lewis has been trying to get fan s to believe and bu y ti ckets - they've had more than I0,000 empty seats for each of the las t two home games. So far, they ' re ignorin g him . "Hopefully they ' ll come out and enjoy. the day," Lewi s said . " It 's going to be one fin e day." No, that' s not a mone yback guarantee. , It'll be the Chiefs scoring zone offense vs. Browns defense BY DouG TUCKER Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Mo . For statistical -minded football fans , Sunday's Cleve land - Kan sas City match offers an unusual showdown between two of the NFL's be st units in critical specialties. ' The Browns (3 -5) own the league's No. I red zone defen se . Opponents have reached the scoring zone 20 limes this season, but Cleveland's defense has allowed points just 14. times - four touchdowns and I0 field goals . Kansas City, meanwhile, has 16 touchdown s and five field goals to show for 21 trips to the red zone - the :bfst in the NFL. Whether the Chi efs continue their . winning wa.ys and go 10 9-0 : niay depend on their red zone offen se beating the :sCoring zone defense of the J3:rowns. ::: "When you have a team like Cleveland , the hardest ·part is they put pressure on :!lie quarterback only rush:ing four guys," said Kansas · :City quarterback Trent :Qreen. .. :"When you have only four :guys ru shing, that means :ypu have seven guys in the ·secondary. What the y tend :te do is play a lot of cover two or cover eight, so gen·erally they ru sh four, have five in the middle usually ·around the 5-yard line or so· and then you have your other two in the end zone ." The rest of the Browns' defense is not so bad, either. Overan , they rank No. 7 in total de,fense, giving up just 290 yard s per game. "They present a lot of problems beca use of the quality of players they have in their front four," Green said. "They don ' t need to bring extra people, which leads to one-on-one matchups. " Priest Holmes , who tied a franchise record with four Kansas touchdown s in City' s 40-39 victory at Cleveland last year, could be key to breaking the Browns' red zone defense. "The important thing is to be able to run the ball," Green said . "If they're only going to bring four guys, then you ' ve got to be able to run the ball welL What they ' ve done is even though they ' re only rushing those four guys, they're very good at their linebacker support and flow. All their guys are young and fast." In pass defense, Cleveland is No. 2 in the NFL and No. I in the AFC with an average yield of just 160.8 yards per game. "Cleveland will come here 3-5," said Chiefs coach Dick Vermeil. "You 'II say why do you say they're a good football team? Well , they've only given up eight touchdowns in eight football games. When the defense is on the field they ' ve given up eight touchdowns. That's an outstanding performance by any scale." The Chiefs' strong point, meanwhile, has been a sore point with the Browns . Spurred on every day by Vermeil, the Chiefs lead the NFL with a plus- 18 turnover differential. Cleveland is rninus-3 . "They ' ve got. a lot of vet~ eran players on the defense. The one thing they do, they hu stle to the ball ," said Browns quarterback Kelly Holcomb. "They' re doin g prett y good at taking the ball away. You have to · know what they're . doin g. IJ you ' re honed up on what they' re doing , you can make som e plays." Kansas City's defen se will not have to face Cleveland' s leading rush er and wid e receiver. Running back William Green has been suspended for the gam e after a legal pro blem and wide receiver · Kevin Johnson was dropped to second team . "Those are two good foot ball players," Holcomb said. "But this is a team game. There's no.t one person that is more important than th e team ." ·- ' CINCINNATI - ·The photograph is shot di rectly into the harsh sun, the faces of the two youths blotted out.

Then came the hard part - proving he could race. · Eamhardt has done that over the past several seasons, and this year he's even more seriou s and foctlsed in his pursuit of a Winston Cup title. Odds are he won't win it in 2003, but :he's finishing the season strong and is already looking ahead to next year. "The team is really getting better and better," Earnhardt sa.d. "We seem to be growing more comfortable. I feel like we can compete next year .for the championship." Part of that growth is a newfound close relat ionship with hi s crew at Dale Earnhardt Inc., the team founded by hi s late father, a seven-time series champion :and <m icon in the sport. Little E won last Sunday at Phoenix and was pumped up after taking the checkered flag, getting into a wild champagne- and beer-spraying celebration with the crew of ·his red No. 8 Budweiser Chevrolet. , It was the ninth victory of his career and ~ec ond this season, but this one was a little more special than the others. "That was the best win of my c<rreer in a · ·few ways," Earnhardt said. "One was see:ing the expression of my guys when I came into Victory Lane. They have been happy before about winning, but they. hadn 't worked hard until this year. · '~ Every single one of them put their heart and soul into this team to make the team :better. To come into Victory Lane and see that, it was a different group of people than I've seen in the past. That was a big, big reward for me.'' : In his first three seasons in NASCAR's .top series, Earnhardt's best points finish was eighth in 200 I. He slipped back to II th last year and was often unhappy with the performance of his crew members, ·keeping his distance from them away from ·the track. . That has all changed and the result is ·clear.

The 34-year-old Harris was ordained as an Episcopalian priest in a special service Nov. I, at St. Philip's Episcopal Church in Circleville. · The journey to becoming a priest has taken him through other careers with lessons in patience. He realizes where he has been and where he is going. · Harri s was not always Episcopalian. Raised in a different church, he felt he needed something more from worship. Harris accompanied a friend to Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Pomeroy. With the stained glass windows and rich color used throughout the liturgical year and the Hturgy itself, it spaiked something that Hams wanted more of. · He had relatives that attended the Grace Episcopal Church in Pomeroy. He ended up attending Grace . Harris stayed, eventually becoming Senior Warden. Harris was active at Grace and also served for awhile as organist for St. Peter's Epi scopal Church .in Gallipoli · ·ts. t d · art Hc allen de.d Oh. 10 umvers1 y._s u ymg · and commumcatton, but transferred to the University of Rio Grande where he complet- · ed his bachelor of science in communicationlpublic relation s. For awhile he had a sense of "I'm going to get the world." He had the usual enthusiasm of a new college graduate ready to set the world on fire. '"!is first job out of college was working in sales' for The Daily SentineL He eventually worked for the Meigs County Department of Jiuman Services. Something was missing. In the back of his mind, there was a tugging. Harris had always been active in church and had ended up in · leadership roles since he was a child. When he decided to go into the seminary, it al so became a lesson in patience. The Episcopal Church was examimog the process in which potential priests could enter mto the seminary. The process took four years. He said that changed a lot for him having to wait. Harris said it felt like his life was on hold. It changed the seminary he attended, which he thinks was good thing. He came to . ... .. ...• •• . ' understand that no matter what happens he knows "God is in controL" · After the four-year wait, he enrolled at Virginia Theological Seminary in Alexandria. He graduated with a degree of Master in Divinity. During that time, he was student body president and seminarian assistant at St. Mary's Episcopal Church in Arlington, Va. He made many friends in seminary. About 10 traveled to his ordination in Circleville. "Things usually work out the way they should," he said reflecting on the journey to seminary and finally being ordained. He said sometimes what may be right for someone is not what they think they need . He said prior to being ordained that he understood what a bride might feel like, planning, making arrangements, and juggling other people's schedules so they can attend. During the service, Harris laid prostrate before the altar during a long prayer. He said the weight of what was coming began to sink in. He thought about the succession from Jesus and his disciples through 2,000 years of heritage of priests serving the church. After being ordained, he and Bishop Kenneth L. Price Jr. administered the sacrament of communion to the other members of the clergy, St. Philip's and guests. He said he could not help thinking, "Wow, I'm allowed to do this." All of the pomp and circumstance of the ordination was gone and he was left with the congregation of about 1()() for services the next day. He said as he stood before the members, it began to sink in. Later several people came to him, one after another seeking his counsel. As the responsibility of the position came into focus, he said he felt a bit nervous, • "It•sa great pnv1 · 'Iege and ha d a I'Itt1e anx1ety: also" he said. ' . . . . . .

Mary Todd Lincoln was perhaps our most vilified First Lady, having been born and raised in Kentucky, daughter of slave- holders. She was eve n accused of being a spy during the Civil War. Several of her brothers-in-law died in th e fighting on the Confede rate side . She was viewed as pushy, extravagant, spoiled and uncultured . This is a dual biography, alternating chapters on the parallel lives of Mary Lincoln and Elizabeth "Lizzy" Keckly. They were born the same year, 1818, Mary into an old, privi!'eged Lexington family, and Lizzy into slavery. Lizzy was th e daughter of Armi , tead Burwell and his house slave, Agnes.

PROUD TO BE APART OF YOUR LIFE. ·Sunday Times-Sentinel Subscribe today • 446-2342 NEW YORK (AP ) When John Ritter died a few weeks ago, his ABC sitcom seemed doomed as well. But pausing only long enough for a drastic but delicate makeover, "8 Simple Rul es for Dating My Teenage Daughter" was back Tuesday night to confront Ritter's trag ic absence and the death of the character he played. The hour-long episode began with the usual domestic fooli shne ss as the Hennessy household began an ordinary hectic morning. Then, preparing breakfast, wife Cate (Kaley Saga!) and the three teenagers got a fateful phone call: Patriarch Paul Hennessy (Ritter's character), who had dashed out to buy milk , had died of a heart attack at the grocery. After a commercial break, preparations for the funeral were under way as Cate's parents arrived. "Can I get you something'" asked Cute 's mom (played by Suzanne Pleshette). "Yesterday would be nice," Cate replied. . · Pleshette and fellow guest star James Garner, as Cate 's dad, are on hand for several episodes to serve "8 Simple Rules .. ." in somewhat the same way as their characters: Lending support as the Hennessy family makes the transition to life without ,Paul, the harried dad and newspaper co rumni st played by Ritter, the show's muchloved star. The two veteran TV fa vorites did the trick. lending a comfortable presence. panicularly with their intermittent bickering: This fe isty couple have long been se parated. During the hour in vcuious combinations, all the characters grieved, reminisced and paid tribute - and what they said often seemed to apply as much to Ritter as Paul Hennessy. While his gramps did an emergency repair on the upstairs toil et, son Rory (Martin Spanjers ) recalled how his dad retreated to the . bathroom when a column' deadline was pressing. "Once in a while Mom would knock on the door to make sure he didn't fall in." Rory said. Then Cate sat with her daughters in a lonely bedroom. "You know what his last words to me were'!

Ritter had completed three episodes for the new season when he died of a heart ailment Sept. ll . Hi s last episode aired Oct. 7. Gambling that a ligh thearted sitcom can sustain the loss of its central figure, "8 Simple Rules ... " is making a desperate bid to carry on as one of ABC's higher-rated series. Doing so, the producers and the network have risked conspi cuous fai lure as well as criticism for tastelessness. It 's hard to say where the show might go now.

Sunday Times-Sentinel 740-446-2342 NATIONAL ILY CAREGIVER MONTHLY DRAWING AT THE MOVIES: 'ELF' Buddy the Elf. a thirtyso mething man who's enjoyed a blissfully na ive existence cobbling toys at the North Pole, cntves any food loaded with sugar. He covers a plate of pasta with jelly beans, Pop Tart pieces and maple syrup, then gleefully crams fistfuls of the glucoseinfused glop into his mouth. And that's just for breakfast. " Elf' director Jon Favreau goes easier on the sweet stuff. however. The "Swingers" di rec tor has made a Christmas movie that's almost edgy. And as Buddy, Wi II Ferrell brings a boundless boyish enthusiasm to the role that's infectious. It's a joy to watch Ferrell in action because he see ms to have ge nuine affection for thi s character. He never plays down to Buddy, never treats him like he's slow or goofy. He plays him like an innocent kid stuck inside a 6-foot-3 man's body, and he m;tkes you want to wrap your arms around him and protect him from the Scrooges outside the walls of Santa's workshop. As a "Saturday Night Live" alum , he clearly has no qualms abo ut making a fool of himself for the big laugh. "Elf' begins with a flashbac k, narrated by Papa Elf (Bob Newhat1), which explains how Buddy sneaked into Santa's toy sack as an orphaned infant on Christmas Eve. Upon returning to the North Pole, Santa (a wonderfully unjolly Ed Asner) decides the boy should stay, and the elves raise him as one of their own. After a lifetime of crouching through tiny. elfin doorways and squattmg on tmy elfin chai rs. Buddy is s~ocked to learn he's not an elf - he's a grown man with a father in New York City who doesn't know he exists .

(AP)Always on the lookout for new and imaginative ways to serve eggplant, I was struck by two recipes that recently landed on my desk- one traditional but wonderfully si mple, the other completely unexpected. The reason for my search is simple . As appealing as eggplant is (face it, with that leathery skin, it even looks a little sultry), it is particularly easy to prepare badly. Part of the problem is the thirsty nature of eggplant. When sauteed, eggplant will absorb as much oi I as you give it. turning it into an oily mess if not cooked with care. In it.~ most common manifestation . eggplant Parmesan, it often is so overcooked it becomes limp, or so overloaded witlt cheese or bland marinara the taste of the vegetable is lost. Thus my search. Over the years I've coll ected some delicious examples of what eggplants can do . One favorite makes a sauce by sauteing eggplant chun ks with a fruit liqueur (if it's going to absorb something. it might as well be good). Another is a .baked and breaded dish that is everything eggplant Parmesan ought to be, crunchy and slightly salty on the outside. but tender and moist on the inside. The first recipe that recently caught my attention is pan fried eggplant with crumbled feta, a favorite in Greek tavernas, .from Diane Kochilas' "Meze" (William Morrow, 2003, $24.95). This si mple presentation brietly cooks eggplant slices until they are just lender, then tops them with feta cheese, freshly ground black pepper and paprika, before giving them a few minutes under the broiter.Thi s imaginati ve dish pairs the modest taste of baby ~eggptants with the assertive flavor of ar'"ame, a.,Ahin, angel-hair-pasta-looking seaweed (the convention now is to call seaweed sea vegetables).

I especially appreciated the decent-sized windows on' the rear doors, and the . maximum 16.1 cubic feet of cargo space. up from 1t .8 cubic feet in last year's Priu s. The car is a hatchback now, with rear seats that fold down to handle longer cargo. The ride isn't inimune from road bumps. My body was vi brating regularly in the 2004 Prius tester even on what appeared to be smooth concrete . The electric power-assisted , rack -and-pinion steering also took some gettin g used to as I spent time correcting my steering efforts in the first several curves. . The turning circle in the new model also isn't as small as it was in the earlier Priu s, Early Prius models came with low-rolling resistance tires that were designed to maximize fuel economy. But these tires didn't have as much grip in wintry weather as all-season tires do, and even on dry pavement. there were a lot of chirps and squeals when I tested an earlier-model Prius. ThankfuJJy, Toyota officiats dropJ?ed the lowrolhng reststance rubber and put all-season. tires on . ' the new Prius. t didn't get a single chirp during my test drive. But th e Priu s tires allow some road noise to come through on certain pavement surfaces. Inside, I enjoyed the better graph ics of the new display in the middle of the dashboard , eve n if the toeation mea ns the midday sun can. at tim es. make the information less visible. The Prius is available with many new options , including a voice-activated navigation system . Even full y loaded. the Prius is priced under $26,000, Toyota officials said. Since the 2004 Prius is a new model, there 's no reliability rati ng by Consumer Repo rts magazi ne . The 2003 Prius was a Consumer Reports recqmmended buy. The National Highway Traffic Safety. Administration reports no cras h test results and no safety recalls of the new Prius. Women bought more than half of the Priu ses produced for the United States last · year. Toyota said. Buyers of th e Prius have had a median age of 53, with median annual household income of $87,000, the automaker said. Eighty-two percent have a college education, and 67· percent are married. U.S. sale s for the new Priu s are expected to be 36,000 for the ftrst year. · The tally, in over 20 countries, so far for Priu ~ sates is more than t I 0 ,000: The first-generation Prius has been sold in the United States since 2000. while in Japan sales began in 1999. : • �Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis, OH • Pt.

' Digestion is the process by which fuou and drink are broken down into their smallest parts so that the body can use them to huild and nouris h cells and to provide energy. How Is Food Digested? Digestion invo lves the mi xi ng of food. its movement through the di ges ti ve tra ct. and chemical breakdown of th e large molecules of fo od into small e r molecu les.

Movement of Food Through the System The large. hollow organs of the dige~tive ~y~tem con ta in 1 mu sc le that enables their w•il ls tu move. The movement or urgi.ln wa lls can pro- pel food and liquid and also c;.m mi x the t'Onlenb within eac h organ. Typical move- ment of th e esophagus. stomach , and in testine is called peristalsi s. Th e action of peristalsi s looks like an ocean wave mo vin g through the muscle . The muscle of the organ produces a narrowing and then propels · th e narrowed portion slowly down the length of the organ . These waves of narrowin g push the foml and lluid in front of them throu gh eac h holl'ow Absorption and Transport of Nutrients org:.·tn . The first major mu scle move me nt occurs when food or liquid IS swallowed . Although we are able to start Carbohydrates: Based on a 2,000-calorie diet, it is rec ommended that 55 to 60 percent of total dai ly calories be from carbohydrates. Some of our most common foods contain mostly carbohydrat es. Examples arc bread. pota toes. leg umes. rice , spaghelli, f'ruits, and vegetahles. Many of these foods contain both starch and fiber. The digestib le carbohydrates are broken into simpler mo lecu les by enzymes in the saliva, in juice produced by the pancreas, and· in the lining of the small intestine. Starch is digested in two steps : First, an enzyme in the sali va and pancreatic juice breaks the starch into molecules call ed multose; then an enzyme in the lining of the small intestine (maltase) splits the mal tose into glucose molecules that can be absorbed into the blood . Glucose is curried through the bloodstream to the liver. where it is stored or ' used to provide energy for the work c•f the body. Table sugar is another carhohydrute that must be digested to he useful.

The major hormones that control the functions of the di ges tive system are produced and released by cells in the mucosa of the stomach and small intestine. These hormones are released into the blood of the digestive tract. trave l back to the heart and through the arteries, and · return to the digesti ve system, where they stimulate digestive j ui ces and ca use organ movement. The hormones that cont rol digestion are gastrin , secretin, and cholecystokinin (CCK). • Oastri n causes the stomach to produce an acid for dissolving and digesting · some foods. It is also necessary for the normal growth of the lining of the stomach , · small in testine, and colon. • Secretin causes the pancreas to send out a digestive juice that is rich in bicarbonate. It stimulates the stomach to produce pepsin, an enzyme that di~ests protein, and it also sttmulutes the liver to produce b,llf. · • CCK cuuses lhe pancreas to grow and to produce the enzymes of pancreatic juice, und it causes the gallbladder to empty. ' 'I digestive organs from the unconscious part of th,e brain or from the spinal cord. They release a chemical called acelyl choline and another called adrenaline. Acetylcholine causes the mu scle of the di ges tive organs to squeeze with more force and incr'<ase the "push" of food and juice through the digestive tract . Acetylcholine al so causes the stomac h and pancreas to produce more digestive juice. Adrenaline relaxes the muscle of the stomach itnd intestine and decreases the now of blood to these organs. Even more important, though, are the intrinsic (in side) nerves, which make up a very dense network embedded in the walls of the esophagu s, stomach, small intestine, and colon. The intrinsic nerves are tri ggered to act when the walls of the hollow organs are stretched by food. They release many different substances that speed up or delay the movement of food and the production of juices by the digestive organs.
