Chicago to hire private lawyers to conduct city business. 1J Mayor Micha~R.White said the $7.4 million ·,pent on outside lawyers in 2000 was necessaty to represent the city in matters like the Gonstructton of Cleveland Browns Stadi. urn, airport expansion, the mayor's takeover of city sch9ols, and labor disputes. City council members say the spending, up $5 million from 1999, is out of control and vow to''use legislation or a charter amendment to stop the hiring of the high-priced legal talent. Brian Rothenbers, spokesman for the mayor's office, said !he tab for outside lawyers is appropriate, even though it accounts for nearly half of the $16 million the city spent on Jegai matters last year. "The ciry of Clev..,Jand, unlike most other municipalities, runs an airport the magnitude of Hopkins airport," along with city~owned power and water companies, Rothenberg told The Plain Dealer. , Los Angeles, the nation's second most populous ciry ·with seven times Cleveland's population, spent $2.8 million on private lawyers. Chicago, ranked third in population and five times Cleveland's size, spent $4 million on outside att!Jrneys.

Academic libraries.busy· Dentists recommend ways to impmve care for poor despite the Internet TOLEDO (AP) College libratians say increased Internet use for obtaining information is changing the definition of their role, but not its importance.. ' 'It's not providing the information. It's providing the service to help people find the · right stuff," said Chris Miko, interim dean of libraries and learning . resources at Bowling Green State University. c· Marcia Suter, president"elect of the Academic Library Associa.tion of Ohio and chairwoman of !he library faculty at the University ofToledo, agreed. "There's very good information and there's very bad iniormarion on the Internet, and the role of !he librarians has changed to try to give students the .skills to differentiate the good from the batV' she s~id. . · Bowling Green students made 719,000 trips to the library during the fiscal year that ended in June, compared with 713,000 the previous year. Toledo has not kept count of libraty use. Laurene Zaporozhetz, dean of libraries at the university, estimated that overall library use has gone up because of electronic re1ource1, but the number of stu·dents ·who pass througli the building probably JS slightly down. Reference librarians at Toledo and Bo\vling Green ans\ver student queries over the Internet, and this, month, Bowling Green will start a virtual reference service in which librarians send artides that are available electronically to students requesting infoqnation. "What's changing now is that the technology h;u allowed users to access a lot of the information without co~ng to !he library," Zaporozhetz said. "We do a lot of our reference reniotely. We might never see the person." But changes in ~he library and academic curriculums encouraging collaborative efforts have kept some students coming hack. For instance, Bowling Green's library cleared its ·eighth floor for ·a group study space for students 'this year. "It's a very different atmosphere than 10 years ago when there was a lot more solitary research going on," said Betsy Wilson, president of the Chicago· based Association of College and Research Libraries. "I think as long as people are social animals, they'll feel. the need to come together to engage in conversation about ~wl­ edge?' she said. "Increasingly, , libraries are be~otning gathering . places fat those discourses:' COLUMBUS (AP) - The Ohio Dental Association has come up with ways to ·improve the state's dental care program for the poor and uninsured, but say putting the program - into effect will take several years. "1 think we're in a five-, 10year program. I don 't think it can' be done · any quicker than that," said Dr. David Rummel, a past president of the Ohio Den- . tal Association. Rummel said II percent of 0 hioans have no medical insur-· ance, but 41 percent have no dental coverage. He also said that about onethird of children ages 6 to 8 who live in low-income families have untreated dental disease, and more than 20 percent of people in families of four earning less than $20,000 a year have had all their teeth extracted .. The group's final re<ommen·dations will be pared down in the next couple of months and sent to Gov. Bob Taft. The recommendations include the following: Revamp the · Medicaid dental program, .shifting administration of government dental. dollars from the state to a private third party and iau:reuinf reimbursentent -to dentists. + Give de~tists financi~l incentive to practice in under- served areas and to treat patients who don't have • private insu ranee. ·- Increase the number and ' capacity of ·dental clinics. . . · One of the most critical changes would be to increase , public .awareness about · the , •, importance of oral health. Of ,• the 37 percent of adults,who did not visit a dentist in 1998, two- ,.', thir:ds didn't even try. "It would be a shame if the ,. state ignored something that" : even the federal government has · acknowledged," said Dr. Henry Fields, dean of the Ohio State : U niversiry College of Dentistry. ·. The _nation's surgeon general · ·has targeted dental care as a top _-··. issue for the same reasons Taft , ' appointed the dental care task force.

Chicago to hire private lawyers to conduct city business. 1J Mayor Micha~R.White said the $7.4 million ·,pent on outside lawyers in 2000 was necessaty to represent the city in matters like the Gonstructton of Cleveland Browns Stadi. urn, airport expansion, the mayor's takeover of city sch9ols, and labor disputes. City council members say the spending, up $5 million from 1999, is out of control and vow to''use legislation or a charter amendment to stop the hiring of the high-priced legal talent. Brian Rothenbers, spokesman for the mayor's office, said !he tab for outside lawyers is appropriate, even though it accounts for nearly half of the $16 million the city spent on Jegai matters last year. "The ciry of Clev..,Jand, unlike most other municipalities, runs an airport the magnitude of Hopkins airport," along with city~owned power and water companies, Rothenberg told The Plain Dealer. , Los Angeles, the nation's second most populous ciry ·with seven times Cleveland's population, spent $2.8 million on private lawyers. Chicago, ranked third in population and five times Cleveland's size, spent $4 million on outside att!Jrneys.

Academic libraries.busy· Dentists recommend ways to impmve care for poor despite the Internet TOLEDO (AP) College libratians say increased Internet use for obtaining information is changing the definition of their role, but not its importance.. ' 'It's not providing the information. It's providing the service to help people find the · right stuff," said Chris Miko, interim dean of libraries and learning . resources at Bowling Green State University. c· Marcia Suter, president"elect of the Academic Library Associa.tion of Ohio and chairwoman of !he library faculty at the University ofToledo, agreed. "There's very good information and there's very bad iniormarion on the Internet, and the role of !he librarians has changed to try to give students the .skills to differentiate the good from the batV' she s~id. . · Bowling Green students made 719,000 trips to the library during the fiscal year that ended in June, compared with 713,000 the previous year. Toledo has not kept count of libraty use. Laurene Zaporozhetz, dean of libraries at the university, estimated that overall library use has gone up because of electronic re1ource1, but the number of stu·dents ·who pass througli the building probably JS slightly down. Reference librarians at Toledo and Bo\vling Green ans\ver student queries over the Internet, and this, month, Bowling Green will start a virtual reference service in which librarians send artides that are available electronically to students requesting infoqnation. "What's changing now is that the technology h;u allowed users to access a lot of the information without co~ng to !he library," Zaporozhetz said. "We do a lot of our reference reniotely. We might never see the person." But changes in ~he library and academic curriculums encouraging collaborative efforts have kept some students coming hack. For instance, Bowling Green's library cleared its ·eighth floor for ·a group study space for students 'this year. "It's a very different atmosphere than 10 years ago when there was a lot more solitary research going on," said Betsy Wilson, president of the Chicago· based Association of College and Research Libraries. "I think as long as people are social animals, they'll feel. the need to come together to engage in conversation about ~wl­ edge?' she said. "Increasingly, , libraries are be~otning gathering . places fat those discourses:' COLUMBUS (AP) - The Ohio Dental Association has come up with ways to ·improve the state's dental care program for the poor and uninsured, but say putting the program - into effect will take several years. "1 think we're in a five-, 10year program. I don 't think it can' be done · any quicker than that," said Dr. David Rummel, a past president of the Ohio Den- . tal Association. Rummel said II percent of 0 hioans have no medical insur-· ance, but 41 percent have no dental coverage. He also said that about onethird of children ages 6 to 8 who live in low-income families have untreated dental disease, and more than 20 percent of people in families of four earning less than $20,000 a year have had all their teeth extracted .. The group's final re<ommen·dations will be pared down in the next couple of months and sent to Gov. Bob Taft. The recommendations include the following: Revamp the · Medicaid dental program, .shifting administration of government dental. dollars from the state to a private third party and iau:reuinf reimbursentent -to dentists. + Give de~tists financi~l incentive to practice in under- served areas and to treat patients who don't have • private insu ranee. ·- Increase the number and ' capacity of ·dental clinics. . . · One of the most critical changes would be to increase , public .awareness about · the , •, importance of oral health. Of ,• the 37 percent of adults,who did not visit a dentist in 1998, two- ,.', thir:ds didn't even try. "It would be a shame if the ,. state ignored something that" : even the federal government has · acknowledged," said Dr. Henry Fields, dean of the Ohio State : U niversiry College of Dentistry. ·. The _nation's surgeon general · ·has targeted dental care as a top _-··. issue for the same reasons Taft , ' appointed the dental care task force. Ohio and six other states were represented last month at a National c;iovernors' Association : ' policy a;ademy on dental hre. "The NGA is recog.\izing· this to be a major issue across all the st;~tes," said Dr. Mark Siegal, chief of the Ohio Dep'artment of Health's bureau of oral health servtces.

In distant Washington, D.C., the Federal Energy Regulatory · Commission doesn't get it. At its last meeting on Dec. 15, it failed , to enact the "hard" price c.aps on wholesale electricity that might have brought some stability to the West's chaotic power markets. Instead, the commission passed a "soft" cap of$150 per megawatt . hour, which electricity brokers and producers can .easily evade : just as they have evaded a $250 cap .that had already been in effect. · Enell!Y Sec~etary Bill Richardson does understand there's a cri:· sis, but he seems to think it chiefly affects California. He recently : ordered the Bonneville Power Administration and major Northwest : utilities -Tacoma Power among them - t!" send their "surplus" . electricity to California.lfNorthwest utilities are enjoying a surplus of hydropower in the current drought, it has escaped our attention. · Closer to home, there's been no marked surge of conservation : among Northwesterners - a sign that power-consuming compa, nies and ordinary citizens don't see the connection between their ; consumption and the high-priced electricity their utilities arc being : forced to buy.
