Howard Lorber said Omni is

·
LeBow promised to move
the new cigarette technologies into Vector Tobacco's sister company, Liggett, which
now holds about 2 percent of
the U.S. marke' for conventional smokes.
Selling cigarettes without
addictive nicotine could lead
buyers to quit shelling out for
Vector or Liggett smokes,
LeBow admitted. But the
world's smokers won't lose
the habit for decades, he predicted: If Vector is able to
become the dominant &lt;:ompany in a reshaped industry,
and profits are reaped for a
decade, that's fine with him.
LeBow owns about 38 perceht of the company; billionaire financier Carllcahn owns
about 22 percent.
Though
anti-smoking
activists recognize thatVector
Tobacco's parent company
helped break down the industry's ·claims that cigarettes
wereri't
addictive
and .
unhealthy, previous exp.e rience with low-tar smokes
shows skepticism is needed,
Jackson said.
Big Tobacco introduced
low-tar cigarettes in the 1970s
implying they were healthier
than their regular bnnds, he
said. People defeated their
· own best intentions by smoking more low-tar cigarettes or
taking the smoke deeper into
their lungs, Jackson said.
"So now, here we go on to
round two with Vector 'and
others trying to bring· safer
cigarettes onto the market,"
Jackson said. "You know what
they say, 'Fool me once, shame
on you. fool me twice, shame
on me.
LeBow said he supports
FDA regulations and he's oruy
too willing for health groups
or anyone else to test whether
Omni produces . measurably
fewer carcinogens.
Meanwhile, "it ca.n't be any
worse to have anything out
there with reduced carcino-

less dangerous. And as we've
seen from tobacco companies, it's dangerous to trust
them,'' said Barry Jackson, a
Nashville, Tenn.-based cancer
society lobbyist for the country's Southeastern tobaccoproducing heartland.
The groups want sales of
the new cigarettes stopped
until their claims are proven
by independent, third-party
testing.
Cigarette smoking remains
a leading cause of preventable
death, taking 430,000 lives in
the United States each year.
About three-quarters of the
50 million smokers in the
United States say they want to
stop, though oruy a fraction
succeed, Vector executives say.
LeBow said after Vector's
low-nicotine cigarette hits the
market next year, the company will submit its research to
the FDA and pursue regulatory approval to sell the product
as a stop-smoking aid.
LeBow won't describe Vector
Tobacco's
financial
prospects.
Profits . last year for the
Miami-based Vector Group
were $174 million; R.J.
Reynolds, the . country's second largest cigarette maker
and the biggest pure tobacco
company, earned $404 million
1 during 2000.
·
One financial industry
researcher who has tracked
the Vector Group - previously called Brooke Group
when it skated near oblivion
in 1997 - believes the alternative smokes could make
about $250 million a year by
capturing about 2 percent to
3 percent of the U.S. tobacco
market.
"These are two new, revo;.
lutionary, cigarette products,"
said Joel Luton, research
, director at APS Financial
Corp. in Austin,Texas. Friends
· who have sampled Omni say
it tastes like a conventional
·smoke, he said, an important
element when considering
sales potential.
On the othet hand, Vector is

Luton said, are whether Vee- gens."

POMEROY - A three-year funding grant of $208,000
has been awarded to the Meigs County Health Departc

Osteopathic Heritage Foundation of Nelsonville.
The money is to be used to make dental care more com;.
prehensive and accessible to vulnerable populations i(l
Southeastern Ohio, said Norma Torres, R.N. , Meigs Coun;.
ty Health Commissioner.
.
She noted that in addition to being used to support th~ ·
current program in Meigs County, it will be used to explor~
extending dental services to Vinton and Athens County resc
idents.
The money is designated for the purchase of dental
equipm~t .- including a panpr~* x-ray machine -. so .
that more clients can be seen and treated, for constructmg a ·
small dental in-house laboratory and for hiring a full-time
dental hygienist to work in the Middleport clinic.
"Dental care is inaccessible for many residents in the
Appalachian region due to the small number of dental professionals, the lack of transportation and the cost of care,''
said Torres. "Children, in particular, suffer from the lack of
oral health care, which has been identified as Ohio's greatest unmet health care need.
"This award will make dental care more available and
. more affordable, as well as enhance patient and parent educaiion efforts to prevent oral health problems."

POMEROY - A thermometer exchange where individuals receive a free digital one for turning in a mercury
one is under way at the Meigs County Health Department.
Last week the agency received 144 digital thermometers
to exchange for mercury oni:s in an effort to get mercury,
a toiric substance harmful to humans and the environment,
out of·homes.
However, residents should know that the new digi~
thermometers are limited one to a family regardless of how
many mercury ones they bring in.
As for how to handle the mercury thermometers, Margie
Skidmore, R . N ., director of nurses, suggested that they be
secured in two zip lock bags before being brought to the
health department. ·

" Mercury is a toxic substance that can harm both
humans and wildlife . In
humans, mercury affects
the brain, spinal cord, kid neys, livers, and ,;,e ability
to feel , see, taste, and move.
It can cause tingling sensations in th e fingers and

Skidmore noted that
long te~m exposure to
mercury can result in
symptoms that get progressively worse and lead to
personality · changes, stupor, and coma.

In pregnant women, she
said it can pass through the

' The Christian Science Monitor has

in Bostotf, I often visited ·its huge global
map room, which t~ght me a lot about
geography. The Mohitor has instructed
me for many years, most recently -- and
rather dramatically - by a Jan. 8 story
filed by Kris Axtman in the paper's
Houston bureau.
"Political dissent can bring federal
agents to (your) door," she told of a visit
by FBI agents and the Secret Service to'
Houston's Art Car Museum. They were
investigating a tip that "anti-American
activity" was going on there. They 1
found, Axtman reported, "an exhibit on
past U.S. covert operations and government secrets."

The museum's docent, Donna Huanca, asked her visitors, after they showeo
their badges and said why they had ·
come, "What's anti-American about free
speech?"
Barry Reingold of San Francisco had
reason to ask the same question when
two FBI agents announced themselves
on the intercom at the residence of the
60-year-old retired phone company
worker.
They told him that a fellow
weight!ifter at his gym had called the
FBI to report that Reingold is a disloyal
American. This, as Reingold told the
Christian Science Monitor, is what led
to the FBI's visit:
At the gym, "discussion had turned to
bin Laden and what a horrible murderer he was. I said, 'Yeah; he's horrible and'
did a horrible thing, but Bush has nothing to be proud of. He is a servant of the
big oil companies, and his only interest
in the Middle East is oil."'
The president has disproved that
charge by his support of Israel and his
criticism of Vasser Arafat, but some
newspaper columnists and Democratic
Party operatives have also spok~n nega-

What is more troubling is that Attorney General John Ashcroft is reintroducing the FBI's COINTELPRO operation
that, from 1957 to 1971, monitored a

pounds Baltimore, 27-1 o

Pittsbu
PITTSBURGH (AP) - For all
the· chattering and name-calling,
all the posturing and preening
that took place for weeks among
the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers, nothing changed
-- except one thing.
The Ravens are no longer
defending .their NFL championship.
Just as in their two regular-season games, the Steelers' topranked defense was much better
than Baltimore's No. 2-ranked
defense. The Steelers' offense Was
vastly superior. Kardell Stewart
was calm and confident, Elvis
Grbac was tentative and confused.
So, after arguing on nearly every
issue all season, the Steelers and
Ravens quickly came to a consensus following Pittsburgh's 27-10
playoff victory Sunday, its second
convincing win over Baltimore in
just over a month.
"They're better," said Shannon
Sharpe, the usually chatty but, at
least for one day, subdued Ravens
· tight end. "I looked up nlidway
through the third quarter and we
had like 78 yards in offense, and
they had the ball almost' 30 minutes. It was very frustrating."
For the Steelers, it was eminently satisfying, and it sent them on
to Sunday's AFC championship
game against New England in

Scramble for votes sends parties in unique directions

I

but will govern like a Democrat.
Democrats dismissed the GOP
efforts on Hispanics, saying voters will
see through such symbolic attell\pts to
win them over and vote on the issues.
Ironically, one -Democratic. candidate
cited Thursday for her effective camp.aigning in rural areas was Sen. Hillary.
Rodham Clinton of New York. Former
President Clinton and his wife are
unpopular in some conservative rural
areas, but Mrs. Clinton is credited .with
visiting every county in New York during her campaign -- a move considered crucial to stronger Democratic · ·
rural performance.
"It's important that the Democratic
Party has a face in some of these areas,"
said Joe Carmichael, state chair in Missouri and a top DNC official·. "We h~ve ·
not tended to the flock."
. It's also important that the Democ- ·
rats have a voice, they said.
·
Rural radio stations are often saturated with a steady drumbeat ot conservative talk shows that criticize Democrats and their stands, party officials said.
"We feel we are the party tl,at cares
about education, jobs, rural and economic development," S~margia said,
"but because the air waves are' saturated with the conservative mantra, we're
not getting past that."

"We're still not where we need ro be,

"Coming in, we knew (Bell) was in a
slump. He hadn't been shooting the ball
well," Hokies guard Brian Chase said.
"We wanted to contain him, and I thin.k

some shots, and Kenny Walls made

Bryant Matthews scored 19 points for
Virginia Tech (6-12, 0-6), which has
lost seven consecutive games and 15 in
a row in the conference. Carlos Dixon,
the Hokies' leading scorer, scored just
five points on 2-for-11 shooting before
fouling out in the final minute.
Bell, the Big East's preseason player of

streak, making just one of 18 attempts
from 3-point range.· He was 0-for-5 on
Sunday, but made 7 -of-8 free throws in

"Ryan got his rebounds, Kenny got

said. "I,",ve been struggling the last three

Cincinnati has nation~ top streak at 17
CINCINNATI (AP) - . Rick Pitino has been to the Final Four. He 's won a
national championship. He knows the look of a team that cap be very dangerous
in the NCAA tournament.
Seventh-ranked Cincinnati has the look.
"They're going to be a hell of a tournament team," Pitino said, after Cincinnati
be:rt Louisville 77-50 on Saturday.
Pitino, who went to four Final Fours with ·Providence and Kentucky and won
the national title with the Wildcats in 1996, got a firsthand look at the nation's
hottest team.
The Bearcats extended the nation's longes.t winning streak to 17 games by going
on a 17-poin run in the first half, then keeping poor-shooting Louisville (11-5, 23 Conference USA) at arm's length the rest of the way.
Since an opening loss at Oklahoma State, the Bearcats (17 -1, 5-0) have won 17
games by double digfrs,a stretch unmatched by a Cincinnati team since the school's
glory days in the early '60s.
. ·
The 1960-61 Bearcats won their last 22 games and the national title ; the 196162 team won its last 18 games and the national title; the 1962-63 team won its first
19 games and. lost in the national championship game.
That's pretty impressive company.
"We don't .t hink about it as much as people think we do," said Steve Logan, who
scored 21 points and lee! a 17-0 run in the first half.
Everyone else is starting ·to think that coach Bob Huggins'latest team might be
one of his very best. The reason: It knows how to .shut down opponents.
Cincinnati's half-court, man-to-man defense is holding opponents to 35.7 percent shooting fioin the field and 56.7 points 1\er game;making it one of the most
formidable in the country.
Huggins thinks this team is. among his best at stopping opponents with half- court .
defense. The Bearcars trapped and pressed on their way to the Final Four in 1992,
then made it to the final eight a year later with an approach much like the one this
season.
"I thought in 1992-93 we defended really well in the half-court, too," Huggins
said. "These guys have been really goo&lt;,l."
Louisville has problems against any defense. The Cardinals missed 24 of their first
28 shots Saturday, including 13 in a row while Cincinnati went on its 17-point run .
Most of the shots came from within a few feet of the basket. The Cardinals did
a nice job getting the ball inside against Cincinnati, which 'was trying to take away
the perimeter shot.
Once .Louisville got the ball inside, all the Bearcats could do was put up their
hands and hope the Cardinals missed. Most of the time, they did.

NFL explains key ruling in Raiden-Patriob
.

FOXBORO, M~ss. (AP) - Upon further review, the NFL will review its rule
governing wh~t separates . a
fumble
from
an
incomplete pass.
. What the league
won't do is reconsider
instant replay.
The league's competition committee v.:ill
take a look, possibly as
soon as its meeting next month, at Rule
3, Section 21, Article 2, which played a
key role in the outcome of the AFC playoff game between the Oakland Raiders
· and New England Patriots. .
"Is it a good or bad rule? I guess that's
tor them to decide," Mike Pereira, the
NFL"s director of officiating, said Sunday
by telephqne from St. Louis.

"I don't think l'd be doing myjob if I
didn't bring it up"' with the competition
committee.
·
Referee Walt Coleman reversed his
own call on a was-it-a-fumble-or-anincompletion play late in the fourth
quarter Saturday night, a change that
helped ,the Patriots beat the Raiders 1613 in overtime and advance to the AFC
championship game.
"I feel like we had one taken away fioin
us:' Oakland's Jerry Rice said.
New England trailed 13-10 with 1:43
left in the fourth quarter when quarter·
back Tom Brady was hit by cornerbacl&lt;
Charles Woodson and lost the ball after
going back to pass. Linebacker Greg
Biekert pounced on it, and Colema.n initially ruled it a fumble because Brady
appeared to be trying to bring the . ball

back in when he lost control.
But after reviewing reJ;&gt;lays, Coleman
changed his mind and ruled an incomplete pass, determining that Brady's arm
was moving forward when he was hit by
Woodson.
The Patriots tied the game on Adam
Vinatieri's 45- yard field goal with 27 seconds left in the fourth quarter and won it
on his 23-yarder at 8:29 of overtime
Coleman applied the rule which states,
in part, "any intentional forward movement of his arm starts a forward pass, even
if the player loses possession of the ball as
he is attempting to tuck it back toward
his body."'
Pereira said the call was correct, adding,
"If you want to disagree with the rule,
that"s another thing. Fans or media people
may not like the rule, but it is a rule."

front of their noisy, towel-twirling fans at
Heinz Field.
The Steelers listened all week to the
chest-thumping from the Ravens, who
seemed to greatly overestimate their ability to keep winning playoff games on the
road. They were 5-0 in the postseason,
with only one game at home.
"We couldn't wait to play this game,"
Steelers safety Lee Flowers said. "We were
ready to play this game Monday:'
The Steelers learned minutes before
kickoff that Pro Bowl running back
Jerome Bettis, out for seven weeks with a
groin injury, wouldn't play because of a
bad reaction ro a painkilling shot. But it
had no visible affect pn their demeanor or
confidence, with center Jeff Hartings saying, ''No disrespect at all, but it's not
Jerome Bettis' team and he knows that."
· As they quickly fell behind 20-0 before
they getting their initial first down, the
Ravens must have wondered if they were
. Grbac's team - or if they should have
kept last year's starter, Trent Dilfer.
"Grbac doesn't like to get hit,.so when
we got close to him, we just tried to brush
him if nothing else, just to let him know
we were close by;· Steelers linebacker Joey
Porter said. "When a quarterback isn't
confident, that makes for a tough day. We
knew he wasn't going to beat us."
The Ravens' running game wasn't
about to, gaining only 22 yards on II carries. Terry Allen, coming off consecutive
100-yard games, was held to 11 yards.
"They talked about the last two games;'
Pittsburgh coach Bill Cowher said. "This
isn't Minnesota. This isn't Miami. We had
a pretty good idea we could shut down
their run game."
Unable to run or throw, the Ravens'
only threat was Jerrnaine Lewis, who had
