"Hospitals are safe places:' Officials with the human services department, county prosecutor's office and hospital council have discussed a program modeled after one called Secret Safe Place for Newborns in Mobile, Ala. In Mobile, newborn babies up to 72 hours old tan be brought to emergency rooms with no questions asked and no police invi>lvement. After medical care, county officials place the babies with foster or adoptive families. Since the program began in November 1998, there has been one abandoned infant, who was discovered alive in a wooded area . Four babies have been turned in at hospitals. Neither the state nor the coun- · ry have statistics on the number of abandoned newborns, but the problem is not great in Hamilton County, said Colleen Gerwe, section chief in the children's services division of the counry human services department. "We have maybe one or two cases a year ofhidden' pregnancies, when the mother doesn't realize she has other choices and leaves her baby in a restroom or a Dumpster;' Gerwe said. "But any initiative that would help one, two or-. three of these ·cases is worth the effort." .

"I wanted to know if be had something to tell me," said Piqua police Lt. Rick Cron, explaining why he continued to question Massie. Massie's lawyen, AndreVf Pratt- and Stephen King, argued that police violated their client's right to a lawyer and used tactics that took advantage of his limited mental abilities. They asked Judge Robert Lindeman that his statements to police be thrown out. Massie, 20, of Piqua, is accused of killing John Sandison on Sept. 1 at his girlfrieQd's home, where the three lived, by setting tire to the bouse. Massie hal pleaded innocent to charges of aggravated murder and aggravated arson. Firefighten found the child's body in the hou.se.

Police probe,threats against superintendent CO LUMBUS (AP) - As police look for the person who made death threats against the ciry schools superintendent following the removal of two administrators, a school board member says the threats are a hoax ·an d the FBI should investigate. Superintendent R osa Smith has been the target of threatening phone calls, e-mail a;~d m.ailed letters during the past two months, beginning just wee ks after she disciplined the two administrators for allegedly falsifYing documents. Board member Bill Moss, an outspoken critic of Smith, acknowledged fr iday a lack of proof to back up his claim that the threats are fake. But Moss said it's the.FBI's job - not his - to find that proof. Smith , who won't talk about the threats, has been under 24-hour protection since March 7, six days after someone made a threatening phone call. "If those two women don't go back to work real soon, Rosa Smith's dead;' police spokeswoman Sherry Jones quoted the caller as saying. , The caller was referring to Charmaine Ware, director of the Northwest Career Center, and Carletta Griffis-Anderson, principal of Deshler Elementary School,Jones said. Smith had suspended the two without pay for allegedly trying to cover up their use of more than $1,300 in district money for a colleagu e's retirement party. Police haven't arrested or charged anyone, but on April 15 they searched the suburban Columbus home where Ware lives with her husband, Kent Ware, a teacher at Monroe Alternative Middle School, Jones said. They seized computer equipment, letters and floppy disks, according to Franklin County Municipal Court records. Police also took men's underwear from the home. They have S>id they plail to compare body fluids possibly on the underwear with the saliva on the threatening letters to search for matching DNA. The Wares were unavailable to conunent Friday because their phone number is unlisted. Their attorney, John Waddy, called the investigation frivolous. "My clients are very shaken and publicly. embarrassed," he said. The Wares would have jeopardized their teaching careers if they were behind the th reats, Waddy said. "They could never teach agai n;· he. said. "Why would they do something like this?" Griffis-Anderson could not be reached to comment on the investigation . A telephone message was left Friday at a phone number listed in her name. Former school board President Mary Jo Kilroy also has reported receiving a threatening phone call but declined to discuss it. "Tilis isJUSt one of those instances in which this could end up being a legal matter and a prosecution. T hat's why I feel it's appropriate for me to talk only to the police," Kilroy said. I Judge says questioning drivers -about immigration status illegal • TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) - Asking drivers about their inmligration· status during routine traffic stops is illegal, a federal judge has ruled in a 4-year-old lawsuit against the State Highway Patrol. · State troopers who 'pose such questions are violating equal proteciion guarantees in the Constitution, U.S. District Judge James Carr said Thursday. The judge said it was likely that "racial stereoryping influences the kinds of questions an officer chooses to ask during a traffic stop." It's the latest decision in a debate over racial profiling, practice by which police stop people and question them on the basis of their race. The U.S. Justice Department is studying the issue nationally. According to the American Civil Liberties Union, 200 police departments are tracking racial and . ethnic information to help decide whether officers stop minorities unfairly. In the lawsuit, nine Hispanic motorists .and the Farm· tabor Organizing Committee, a union representing migrant laborers, said troopers routinely stopped Hispanics without justification, asked about immigration stltus and in some cases confiscated green cards. They claimed to have been detained on the basis of race and that their rights were violated when they were stopped, searched and held. Patio! spokesman Lt. John Born said Friday that troopers stop motorists based on driving behav- a ior, not what they look like. "Courts, including this court, have consistently supported our tr:Uiic stops," he said. "This ruling only deals with questions we can and can't ask." He said li1niting those questions would challenge the validity of proposed state and federal legislation that would require officers to ask motorists about their race ethnicity for data collection. Carr said attorneys for the farm labor union had introduced direct evidence that "Hispanic motorists are treated differendy than white motorists." The court still must decide whether two Hispanic motorists, whose traffic stop led to the lawsuit, should be awarded damages because their green cards were taken.A trial on that issue is scheduled to begin May 16. "It's pretty clear that race is what's triggering this;· said Mark. Finnegan, a lawyer with the Equal Justice Foundation, which represented the farm labor union. "The big question that remains is why is the highway patrol inves-· ligating irninigration laws," Finnegan said. Born .said the patrol's policy is not to investigate those laws but to turn over questions about a person's residency status to immigration officials. Carr's ruling expands upon a decision he issued in September that said troopers can ask motorists about their immigration status and seize green cards if there is reason to believe the papers are counterfeit. KKK adopts county road withoUt a legal battle COLUMBUS (AP) - While Ohio 's Adopt-a- Highway cleanup program excludes hate groups, a rural county decided it had no legal way to keep a Klan faction liom taking credit for litter control on one of its roads. Steve Kirk, imperial wizard of the Aryan Knights of the Confederacy Ku Klux Klan, says several members wearing T-shirts with. Klan slogans will start picking up litter on the Logan County road at noon Saturday. Kirk, 48, of Bellefontaine, says he and another member will stand on the roadside in robes and hoods. The Klan factiof\ already has it1 name on· Adopt-a-Road signs erected March 31 on each end of a two-mile stretch of the road near Rushsylvania, 50 miles northwest of Columbus. One sign was quickly torn down but will be replaced, said Janie James, head of Logan C ounty's Litter Prevention and R ecycling program. Jame; said 77 other groups in the county participate in the Adopt-a-Road program, which gives them trnsh bags, gloves and orange vests and requires them to pick up litter four times a year. She said trying to keep the Klan out was not worth the possibility that it would require the county to shut down its whole program, modeled after similar state and local efforts around the country. "They're like anyone else who wants to adopt a road. They filled out all the proper paperwork;' James said. Kirk said his Klan group is civic-minded and wants to help keep Logan County clean.

"Hospitals are safe places:' Officials with the human services department, county prosecutor's office and hospital council have discussed a program modeled after one called Secret Safe Place for Newborns in Mobile, Ala. In Mobile, newborn babies up to 72 hours old tan be brought to emergency rooms with no questions asked and no police invi>lvement. After medical care, county officials place the babies with foster or adoptive families. Since the program began in November 1998, there has been one abandoned infant, who was discovered alive in a wooded area . Four babies have been turned in at hospitals. Neither the state nor the coun- · ry have statistics on the number of abandoned newborns, but the problem is not great in Hamilton County, said Colleen Gerwe, section chief in the children's services division of the counry human services department. "We have maybe one or two cases a year ofhidden' pregnancies, when the mother doesn't realize she has other choices and leaves her baby in a restroom or a Dumpster;' Gerwe said. "But any initiative that would help one, two or-. three of these ·cases is worth the effort." .

"I wanted to know if be had something to tell me," said Piqua police Lt. Rick Cron, explaining why he continued to question Massie. Massie's lawyen, AndreVf Pratt- and Stephen King, argued that police violated their client's right to a lawyer and used tactics that took advantage of his limited mental abilities. They asked Judge Robert Lindeman that his statements to police be thrown out. Massie, 20, of Piqua, is accused of killing John Sandison on Sept. 1 at his girlfrieQd's home, where the three lived, by setting tire to the bouse. Massie hal pleaded innocent to charges of aggravated murder and aggravated arson. Firefighten found the child's body in the hou.se.

Police probe,threats against superintendent CO LUMBUS (AP) - As police look for the person who made death threats against the ciry schools superintendent following the removal of two administrators, a school board member says the threats are a hoax ·an d the FBI should investigate. Superintendent R osa Smith has been the target of threatening phone calls, e-mail a;~d m.ailed letters during the past two months, beginning just wee ks after she disciplined the two administrators for allegedly falsifYing documents. Board member Bill Moss, an outspoken critic of Smith, acknowledged fr iday a lack of proof to back up his claim that the threats are fake. But Moss said it's the.FBI's job - not his - to find that proof. Smith , who won't talk about the threats, has been under 24-hour protection since March 7, six days after someone made a threatening phone call. "If those two women don't go back to work real soon, Rosa Smith's dead;' police spokeswoman Sherry Jones quoted the caller as saying. , The caller was referring to Charmaine Ware, director of the Northwest Career Center, and Carletta Griffis-Anderson, principal of Deshler Elementary School,Jones said. Smith had suspended the two without pay for allegedly trying to cover up their use of more than $1,300 in district money for a colleagu e's retirement party. Police haven't arrested or charged anyone, but on April 15 they searched the suburban Columbus home where Ware lives with her husband, Kent Ware, a teacher at Monroe Alternative Middle School, Jones said. They seized computer equipment, letters and floppy disks, according to Franklin County Municipal Court records. Police also took men's underwear from the home. They have S>id they plail to compare body fluids possibly on the underwear with the saliva on the threatening letters to search for matching DNA. The Wares were unavailable to conunent Friday because their phone number is unlisted. Their attorney, John Waddy, called the investigation frivolous. "My clients are very shaken and publicly. embarrassed," he said. The Wares would have jeopardized their teaching careers if they were behind the th reats, Waddy said. "They could never teach agai n;· he. said. "Why would they do something like this?" Griffis-Anderson could not be reached to comment on the investigation . A telephone message was left Friday at a phone number listed in her name. Former school board President Mary Jo Kilroy also has reported receiving a threatening phone call but declined to discuss it. "Tilis isJUSt one of those instances in which this could end up being a legal matter and a prosecution. T hat's why I feel it's appropriate for me to talk only to the police," Kilroy said. I Judge says questioning drivers -about immigration status illegal • TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) - Asking drivers about their inmligration· status during routine traffic stops is illegal, a federal judge has ruled in a 4-year-old lawsuit against the State Highway Patrol. · State troopers who 'pose such questions are violating equal proteciion guarantees in the Constitution, U.S. District Judge James Carr said Thursday. The judge said it was likely that "racial stereoryping influences the kinds of questions an officer chooses to ask during a traffic stop." It's the latest decision in a debate over racial profiling, practice by which police stop people and question them on the basis of their race. The U.S. Justice Department is studying the issue nationally. According to the American Civil Liberties Union, 200 police departments are tracking racial and . ethnic information to help decide whether officers stop minorities unfairly. In the lawsuit, nine Hispanic motorists .and the Farm· tabor Organizing Committee, a union representing migrant laborers, said troopers routinely stopped Hispanics without justification, asked about immigration stltus and in some cases confiscated green cards. They claimed to have been detained on the basis of race and that their rights were violated when they were stopped, searched and held. Patio! spokesman Lt. John Born said Friday that troopers stop motorists based on driving behav- a ior, not what they look like. "Courts, including this court, have consistently supported our tr:Uiic stops," he said. "This ruling only deals with questions we can and can't ask." He said li1niting those questions would challenge the validity of proposed state and federal legislation that would require officers to ask motorists about their race ethnicity for data collection. Carr said attorneys for the farm labor union had introduced direct evidence that "Hispanic motorists are treated differendy than white motorists." The court still must decide whether two Hispanic motorists, whose traffic stop led to the lawsuit, should be awarded damages because their green cards were taken.A trial on that issue is scheduled to begin May 16. "It's pretty clear that race is what's triggering this;· said Mark. Finnegan, a lawyer with the Equal Justice Foundation, which represented the farm labor union. "The big question that remains is why is the highway patrol inves-· ligating irninigration laws," Finnegan said. Born .said the patrol's policy is not to investigate those laws but to turn over questions about a person's residency status to immigration officials. Carr's ruling expands upon a decision he issued in September that said troopers can ask motorists about their immigration status and seize green cards if there is reason to believe the papers are counterfeit. KKK adopts county road withoUt a legal battle COLUMBUS (AP) - While Ohio 's Adopt-a- Highway cleanup program excludes hate groups, a rural county decided it had no legal way to keep a Klan faction liom taking credit for litter control on one of its roads. Steve Kirk, imperial wizard of the Aryan Knights of the Confederacy Ku Klux Klan, says several members wearing T-shirts with. Klan slogans will start picking up litter on the Logan County road at noon Saturday. Kirk, 48, of Bellefontaine, says he and another member will stand on the roadside in robes and hoods. The Klan factiof\ already has it1 name on· Adopt-a-Road signs erected March 31 on each end of a two-mile stretch of the road near Rushsylvania, 50 miles northwest of Columbus. One sign was quickly torn down but will be replaced, said Janie James, head of Logan C ounty's Litter Prevention and R ecycling program. Jame; said 77 other groups in the county participate in the Adopt-a-Road program, which gives them trnsh bags, gloves and orange vests and requires them to pick up litter four times a year. She said trying to keep the Klan out was not worth the possibility that it would require the county to shut down its whole program, modeled after similar state and local efforts around the country. "They're like anyone else who wants to adopt a road. They filled out all the proper paperwork;' James said. Kirk said his Klan group is civic-minded and wants to help keep Logan County clean.

An action of violence is the thread that is common to all event<. Whether any good can come from violence depends upon the event itself. T he day when Jesus was nail ed to a wooden cross to die has been called Good Friday. We could not do this were it not for the event of the Resurrection three days later that changed the lives of hundreds of millions of people, hist~ty. and the wo,rld. · That event was so momentous that it changed the way man kept rrack of time. While it attracted muc\1 cohtroversy, schools, hospitals and churches were bdilt to meet the needs of mankind at a rate never before known. Paul Revere's ride awakened the settlers of a new land to defend themselves from the oppression of the .British Crown. Thousands would lose their lives in acts of violence that followed. Longfellow began with those memorable words, " Listen, my children, and you shall hear of the midnigbt ride of Paul Revere, On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-6ve; hardly a ma11 is now alive that remembers that famous day and year." Our freedoms we now edj'oy were born out of that struggle. Longfellow best described what was happening in two sentences: "A hurry of hoofs in 11 village street, A shape i11 rloe uo<lOul(gllf, a bulk it~ the dmk, And be~~eatl1,from tire f><hbles, iro passing, a spark Struck out by a steecl.flyingfe~~rless and fleet : TI~ar was all!

It does not take a genius to see what is taking place as we sit idly by. Parents are told they will be arrested if they spank th eir child - the child is told to call 911 if parents spank di em . Some parents have had to go to court to keep their children because a teacher saw bruises on a child and turned the case into a "probable child abuse" iss ue - (TV news item) which has caused parents much grief and unnec essa ry expense. Parents are forbidden to discipline their children as the government does not believe -parents are capable of makin g a decision as to what d egree of punishment fits the crime.The government says it is in the best interest of the child for punishment, such as spanking, to be illegaL Parents who are intelligent enough to read the Bible know that not to discipline means not to love. Where there is no di scipline, there is no respect for parents, teachers or anyone in authority. Where there is no discipline, there is chaos. This is the case in our schools today teachers claim they have no control, they are · not allowed to discipline either, so what are they to do Big Brother? Now Big Brother must come up with a solution or a method to use with the children - so they give the unruliness nam e - and the onl.y solution is drugs. At least that is Big Brother's solution . This solution starts in kindergarten and becomes over the years, a crutch for mothers, fathers, teachers and principals. The children are being sacrificed to cover Big Brother's blunders and then unsuspecting people wonder why so many young people are on drugs. Many times even "Christian" counselors will 61\ these young people with controlled drugs and make them like zombies . This was done to my own child, so I a.m speaking fivm experience. I think these children are from homes where we fail to practice our God-given . parental rights.

An action of violence is the thread that is common to all event<. Whether any good can come from violence depends upon the event itself. T he day when Jesus was nail ed to a wooden cross to die has been called Good Friday. We could not do this were it not for the event of the Resurrection three days later that changed the lives of hundreds of millions of people, hist~ty. and the wo,rld. · That event was so momentous that it changed the way man kept rrack of time. While it attracted muc\1 cohtroversy, schools, hospitals and churches were bdilt to meet the needs of mankind at a rate never before known. Paul Revere's ride awakened the settlers of a new land to defend themselves from the oppression of the .British Crown. Thousands would lose their lives in acts of violence that followed. Longfellow began with those memorable words, " Listen, my children, and you shall hear of the midnigbt ride of Paul Revere, On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-6ve; hardly a ma11 is now alive that remembers that famous day and year." Our freedoms we now edj'oy were born out of that struggle. Longfellow best described what was happening in two sentences: "A hurry of hoofs in 11 village street, A shape i11 rloe uo<lOul(gllf, a bulk it~ the dmk, And be~~eatl1,from tire f><hbles, iro passing, a spark Struck out by a steecl.flyingfe~~rless and fleet : TI~ar was all!

Some parents have had to go to court to keep their children because a teacher saw bruises on a child and turned the case into a "probable child abuse" iss ue - (TV news item) which has caused parents much grief and unnec essa ry expense. Parents are forbidden to discipline their children as the government does not believe -parents are capable of makin g a decision as to what d egree of punishment fits the crime.The government says it is in the best interest of the child for punishment, such as spanking, to be illegaL Parents who are intelligent enough to read the Bible know that not to discipline means not to love. Where there is no di scipline, there is no respect for parents, teachers or anyone in authority. Where there is no discipline, there is chaos. This is the case in our schools today teachers claim they have no control, they are · not allowed to discipline either, so what are they to do Big Brother? Now Big Brother must come up with a solution or a method to use with the children - so they give the unruliness nam e - and the onl.y solution is drugs. At least that is Big Brother's solution . This solution starts in kindergarten and becomes over the years, a crutch for mothers, fathers, teachers and principals. The children are being sacrificed to cover Big Brother's blunders and then unsuspecting people wonder why so many young people are on drugs. Many times even "Christian" counselors will 61\ these young people with controlled drugs and make them like zombies . This was done to my own child, so I a.m speaking fivm experience. I think these children are from homes where we fail to practice our God-given . parental rights. If we expect "nothing;' that's exactly what we'll get, "nothing." ; If we don't take a stand against child drugging we will have lots of drugged children is that not common sense?

This situation is not unique to (inaU hospitals - the hits h ave CO!lle primarily from decreased reimbursement through Medicaid and Medicare, and the number of people who use those cards. Skilled nursing, the behavioral care unit, the rural health clinic and the home health service are financially stable, we're told, so we can expect those units to operate as usual. Inpatient bed use at the hospital has declined tremendously over the past few years as doctors have come and gone. While that dosing has an impact on county resideiJ,ts, the real impact will come with the closing of the emergency room. Voters viewed the hospital levy as a no-win situation when they went to the polls - they either lost needed services or paid more than they felt they could afford. : We're not an affluent region and we have one of the highest unemployment rates in the state.

Sunday, April 23, 2000 Shaq says Lakers need to 1Jring our A ga~e • against Kings .t.oday LOS ANGELES (AP) -The Sacramento King~ finished .the season on a downer, losing seven of their last eight games, including the final four. They dropped into the No. 8 slot in the Western Conference playoff race. Now, as they prepare for their fir~t-round matchup with the topseeded Los Angeles Lakers, lakers star Kobe Bryant believes the Kings appear to put t.he slump behind them. "I think everybody who knows Sacramento knows they don't really care about that, they just come out and play," he said. Kings guard Jason Williams supported that theory, saying, .. There's no question we never lose our confidence." The Kings will need more than confidence to succeed. Based on a 67-ts· regular-season record - second-best in fr.m chise histo ry - and homecourt advantage throughout the playoffs, the lakers are favored to win their first championship since 1988. History is against the Kings , roo. In 156 opportunities since the 16-team playoff format was adopted 16 years ago, the 1994 Denver Nuggets and 1999 New York Knicks are the only eighth-seeded tc-an1s to beat a No. 1, ebminating Seattle and Miaini, respectively. Nevertheless, the Lakers enter the best-of-five• series that begins today at ,Staples Center a bit wary, and the Kings come in with some optimism. "We all know this team, we 'll have to play weU to beat them," first-year Lakers coach Phil Jackson said. "We have not yet found a way co stop (Chris) Webber." Webber, the NBA's sixth-leading scorer, averaged 27 points and 11 rebounds in four games against the Lakers this season. "He's the heart and soul of their team," Bryantsaid. Shaquille O'Neal agreed, say- ing, "He's a dominant power forward. I think if we shut everyone else down , we'll be all'right." O'Neal has been even more dominant. A virtual lock to win his first NBA Most Valuable Player award, he scored an NBA-leading 29.7 points per game and averaged 35.3 points and 13.3 rebounds against the Kings. "You ca n't. stop Shaq, you just do your best to keep him busy, make him work hard," Sacramento's Vlade Divac said. "To beat the Lakers, we need to have a perfec t game. We need to take care of the basketbaU, that's a real key for us." Despite their late-season slide, the Kings (44-38) had their best record since 1982-83, when they went 45-37 while playing in Kansas City. Sacramento's success was l)lainly due to a run-and-gun attack chat resulted in a leagueleading 105.0 points per game. The Kings gave the Lakers a tough time, beating them once and losing three times, but by just three , one and seven points. KentUCky Speedway officials battle annexation by Sparta SPARTA , Ky.

Jeff Gordon 's victory at Talladega last Sunday was ·significant for a variety of reasons. Not only did it end a 13-race drought, it also showed that the "Rainbow Warrior" shouldn't be counted out of this year's Winston Cup race just yet. There is no doubt that losing most of his crew did require a period of adjustment.

Sunday, April 23, 2000 Shaq says Lakers need to 1Jring our A ga~e • against Kings .t.oday LOS ANGELES (AP) -The Sacramento King~ finished .the season on a downer, losing seven of their last eight games, including the final four. They dropped into the No. 8 slot in the Western Conference playoff race. Now, as they prepare for their fir~t-round matchup with the topseeded Los Angeles Lakers, lakers star Kobe Bryant believes the Kings appear to put t.he slump behind them. "I think everybody who knows Sacramento knows they don't really care about that, they just come out and play," he said. Kings guard Jason Williams supported that theory, saying, .. There's no question we never lose our confidence." The Kings will need more than confidence to succeed. Based on a 67-ts· regular-season record - second-best in fr.m chise histo ry - and homecourt advantage throughout the playoffs, the lakers are favored to win their first championship since 1988. History is against the Kings , roo. In 156 opportunities since the 16-team playoff format was adopted 16 years ago, the 1994 Denver Nuggets and 1999 New York Knicks are the only eighth-seeded tc-an1s to beat a No. 1, ebminating Seattle and Miaini, respectively. Nevertheless, the Lakers enter the best-of-five• series that begins today at ,Staples Center a bit wary, and the Kings come in with some optimism. "We all know this team, we 'll have to play weU to beat them," first-year Lakers coach Phil Jackson said. "We have not yet found a way co stop (Chris) Webber." Webber, the NBA's sixth-leading scorer, averaged 27 points and 11 rebounds in four games against the Lakers this season. "He's the heart and soul of their team," Bryantsaid. Shaquille O'Neal agreed, say- ing, "He's a dominant power forward. I think if we shut everyone else down , we'll be all'right." O'Neal has been even more dominant. A virtual lock to win his first NBA Most Valuable Player award, he scored an NBA-leading 29.7 points per game and averaged 35.3 points and 13.3 rebounds against the Kings. "You ca n't. stop Shaq, you just do your best to keep him busy, make him work hard," Sacramento's Vlade Divac said. "To beat the Lakers, we need to have a perfec t game. We need to take care of the basketbaU, that's a real key for us." Despite their late-season slide, the Kings (44-38) had their best record since 1982-83, when they went 45-37 while playing in Kansas City. Sacramento's success was l)lainly due to a run-and-gun attack chat resulted in a leagueleading 105.0 points per game. The Kings gave the Lakers a tough time, beating them once and losing three times, but by just three , one and seven points. KentUCky Speedway officials battle annexation by Sparta SPARTA , Ky.

Rabbits are intelligent animals that can be litter-trained and have the run of your home just like a cat or dog, Unfortunate. ly, people buy bunnies impulsively. The pets seem like cute, furry toys, and parents give them to children who are not capable of caring for the helpless creatures. This is jnst plain cruel. When the kids cannot handle the responsibility, the parents often abandon the animals, thinking they will do fine out-of-doors. Not true. Most of these bunnies have never been out of the pet shop. They wind up starving, injured or dead. Please, folks, ifyou are not willing to invest in the long-term care of a live bunny, buy the chocolate variety. -- J.l . in Adanta Dear J.L.: Thank you for giving me the opportunity to remind my readers once again that live bunnies are not appropriate Easter gi~ for young children. Too often, when they are no longer cute and the novelry wears off, children lose interest. Please, Dear Readers, do not purchase a bunny for your child unless you are prepared to make it the family pet for the remainder of its natural life. Dear Ann Landers: I'm writing about the heavyset wop13n who wanted to rent an apartment with wooden parquet floors, and wa5 asked by the building manager how much she weighed. Po~ his information, a woman weighing in excess of 300 pounds will not do as much damage as . a petite chick. wearing stiletto heels. The latter would be harder on his floors than a 20-ton elephant. The woman who wrote should have told that jerk who interviewed her to stuff it, and to nuke out the rental agreement inunediately, or else she'd sue for discrimination. Pass the word, Ann. These people need to be told to shape up. Robert M., Anchorage, Alaska, Architect Dear Roberti Thanks .for your outrage and expression of support. It was one of many I received. Most of the others,' however, \vere so fuU of.obscenities they were unprinuble. · Almost every female who wrote told me her weigh,t.

Our New Testament text enjoys unusually ample documentation from numerous ancient manuscripts; further corroborated by extensive quotations by early church writers, as Ewen correcdy reports. But she relies too much on problematic claims .that we have fragments of Gospel manuscripts written in the first centu,ry. 011 au\horship, Ewen is convinced the apostles Matthew and John themselves wrote the Gospels that traditionally carry their names; and that Mark drew eyewitness material direcdy from the aposde Peter. Many would disagree. luke was rio eyewitness but carefully compiled good second-hand .information, Ewen says, and that could be true for the other three evangelists. Ewen thinks the Gospels provide four independent witnessc;s, enough to convince the most skeptical juror. Most scholars would say she oversutes this point. But she's on firmer ground contending we have independent witnesses testifying about the empry tomb and JesUs' appearances after he rose from the grave. Ewen's best case is circumstantiaL Those who first testified that Jesus rose from the dead had no motive for lying, she argues. To the contrary, this belief caused problems for early Christians, and execution for some. . "People do not die for what they · know to be untrue," she asserts. Ewen also says . Roman and Jewish authorities of the time had every reason to disprove the empty tomb and Resurrection appearances, but there's no sign they were able to offer such evidence.

The pets seem like cute, furry toys, and parents give them to children who are not capable of caring for the helpless creatures. This is jnst plain cruel. When the kids cannot handle the responsibility, the parents often abandon the animals, thinking they will do fine out-of-doors. Not true. Most of these bunnies have never been out of the pet shop. They wind up starving, injured or dead. Please, folks, ifyou are not willing to invest in the long-term care of a live bunny, buy the chocolate variety. -- J.l . in Adanta Dear J.L.: Thank you for giving me the opportunity to remind my readers once again that live bunnies are not appropriate Easter gi~ for young children. Too often, when they are no longer cute and the novelry wears off, children lose interest. Please, Dear Readers, do not purchase a bunny for your child unless you are prepared to make it the family pet for the remainder of its natural life. Dear Ann Landers: I'm writing about the heavyset wop13n who wanted to rent an apartment with wooden parquet floors, and wa5 asked by the building manager how much she weighed. Po~ his information, a woman weighing in excess of 300 pounds will not do as much damage as . a petite chick. wearing stiletto heels. The latter would be harder on his floors than a 20-ton elephant. The woman who wrote should have told that jerk who interviewed her to stuff it, and to nuke out the rental agreement inunediately, or else she'd sue for discrimination. Pass the word, Ann. These people need to be told to shape up. Robert M., Anchorage, Alaska, Architect Dear Roberti Thanks .for your outrage and expression of support. It was one of many I received. Most of the others,' however, \vere so fuU of.obscenities they were unprinuble. · Almost every female who wrote told me her weigh,t. The average was around 225 pounds, and ALL said their floors were in excellent condi.tion. Dear Ann Lander~: One of my closest friends, "Emma," necendy became engaged. She is now busy making wedding plans. When I was married four years ago, she was a tremendous help to me, and took. 'a great many details off my hands. · This past week, when Emma told me she had chosen , her wedding date,, my heart sank.· It is the date my husband wants us to take a family vacation.

Today, the egg hunt is a massive project undertaken by the Middleport Volunteer . Fire Department, which took over the · project a decade ago. Pomeroy attorney Bernard Fultz, a member of the Rotary Club ·since he arrived in the community in the late 1950s, remembers well the days before gaily-colored plastic eggs, when real eggs were · boiled, colored, and hidden well in the grass and shrubbery, waiting to be found by an observant child. · · · In those days, members of the Rotary and Rotary Anns (the Rotary's ·women's group when the Rotary was for "men only") met at the home . 1997 Blut Chovy Lumina EKCot• lonl Condlllon, Make Ollar, 740· 44HJCI28. ~. • I -• • • -. - I ~ -·~ . . . . . . ·- -- . . . . --·>~~ ·· ·~ · ~-- · -- ··~· -- ··- • -- -- ·-------- ,; ' , 1 1 ~*" , ·1 proof on dates. Our New Testament text enjoys unusually ample documentation from numerous ancient manuscripts; further corroborated by extensive quotations by early church writers, as Ewen correcdy reports. But she relies too much on problematic claims .that we have fragments of Gospel manuscripts written in the first centu,ry. 011 au\horship, Ewen is convinced the apostles Matthew and John themselves wrote the Gospels that traditionally carry their names; and that Mark drew eyewitness material direcdy from the aposde Peter. Many would disagree. luke was rio eyewitness but carefully compiled good second-hand .information, Ewen says, and that could be true for the other three evangelists. Ewen thinks the Gospels provide four independent witnessc;s, enough to convince the most skeptical juror. Most scholars would say she oversutes this point. But she's on firmer ground contending we have independent witnesses testifying about the empry tomb and JesUs' appearances after he rose from the grave. Ewen's best case is circumstantiaL Those who first testified that Jesus rose from the dead had no motive for lying, she argues. To the contrary, this belief caused problems for early Christians, and execution for some. . "People do not die for what they · know to be untrue," she asserts. Ewen also says . Roman and Jewish authorities of the time had every reason to disprove the empty tomb and Resurrection appearances, but there's no sign they were able to offer such evidence. "The silence is deafening." Apart from the documents, there is another objection from skeptics: Science ,.......

(AP) George Freestone has been driving automobiles for as long as Arizona has been a state. And as he roDs along toward his 102nd birthday in Augu st, he has no plans to relinquish his cherished seat · behind the wheel of his 1997 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight. "I've been driving since I was 14, hefore you even needed ~ a license. Never had a ticket. Never had a problem," said Freestone, whose first job was as an instructor at his father's driving school at age 16. Privers like Freestone often evoke the ire and suspicions of many younger motorists; who feel older people represent increased safety risks as . their eyesight, hearing and reflexes erode -with age. "They're over cautious, they drive too slow and they're slow to react to things like lane changes;' said Bob Seitzer, a 27- year-old auto parts deliveryman in the Phoenix area. "I think every driver 65 and 11p should be tested as much as possible." So do some legislators around the country. During the 1999 legislative sessions, . 16 states COI)sidered bills relating to olde~ drivers. Thirteen states plus the District of Columbia have passed laws in recent years · .for stricter•safeguards. · New Hampshire · now req11ires people 75 and older to take a road test to contin11e driving. Drivers 75 and up in :Washington, D.C., II!"Y need to have _their reactions tested before ··they can renew their licenses. At least 35 states also have medical review .boards that can restrict or ~voke the license of any driver 4eemed unsafe. As the nation's baby-boomer population continues to age- ' with ' an estimated 50 million Americans in the 65-and-older category expected by 2020 the debate continues about "how old is too old" when it comes to driving. Gary , Gershowitz, spokesman for the Florida DepartillczPt of Elder Affairs in Tallahassee, safd age shouldn't be one of the criteria used 'to ' determine whether someone can drive. "If a person is physically and mentally able' to get behind the wheel of a car and is not a danger to themselves .or others, he or she should be allowed to · drive regaroless of their age;' he said. "It shouldn't matter if they are 70, 80 or 90." "There are more accidents with 20-something drivers. It just seems like accidents involving elderly drivers get all the bad publicity," added Bruce Taft, coordinator for Arizona's 55- Alive driving refresher program, which is sanctioned by the American Association of Retired Persons.

(AP) George Freestone has been driving automobiles for as long as Arizona has been a state. And as he roDs along toward his 102nd birthday in Augu st, he has no plans to relinquish his cherished seat · behind the wheel of his 1997 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight. "I've been driving since I was 14, hefore you even needed ~ a license. Never had a ticket. Never had a problem," said Freestone, whose first job was as an instructor at his father's driving school at age 16. Privers like Freestone often evoke the ire and suspicions of many younger motorists; who feel older people represent increased safety risks as . their eyesight, hearing and reflexes erode -with age. "They're over cautious, they drive too slow and they're slow to react to things like lane changes;' said Bob Seitzer, a 27- year-old auto parts deliveryman in the Phoenix area. "I think every driver 65 and 11p should be tested as much as possible." So do some legislators around the country. During the 1999 legislative sessions, . 16 states COI)sidered bills relating to olde~ drivers. Thirteen states plus the District of Columbia have passed laws in recent years · .for stricter•safeguards. · New Hampshire · now req11ires people 75 and older to take a road test to contin11e driving. Drivers 75 and up in :Washington, D.C., II!"Y need to have _their reactions tested before ··they can renew their licenses. At least 35 states also have medical review .boards that can restrict or ~voke the license of any driver 4eemed unsafe. As the nation's baby-boomer population continues to age- ' with ' an estimated 50 million Americans in the 65-and-older category expected by 2020 the debate continues about "how old is too old" when it comes to driving. Gary , Gershowitz, spokesman for the Florida DepartillczPt of Elder Affairs in Tallahassee, safd age shouldn't be one of the criteria used 'to ' determine whether someone can drive. "If a person is physically and mentally able' to get behind the wheel of a car and is not a danger to themselves .or others, he or she should be allowed to · drive regaroless of their age;' he said. "It shouldn't matter if they are 70, 80 or 90." "There are more accidents with 20-something drivers. It just seems like accidents involving elderly drivers get all the bad publicity," added Bruce Taft, coordinator for Arizona's 55- Alive driving refresher program, which is sanctioned by the American Association of Retired Persons.

He would then personally place the ice in the icebox. The Gallipolis Ice Company had its origins in 1900 when George E. Bush started the company. For the first 20 years of operation , Gallipolis Ice Co. made ice from stea m absorption . In 1921 they switched to a steam driven compression system. In the mid 1920's electricity was used for the first time in the ice-making process. In 1935 they switched to diesel. By 1940 Gallipolis Ice Co. could produce some 20 tons of ice per day. In 1940 ice came not just in chunks but also in cubes and crushed. Gallipolis Ice Co. also dealt in water fountains and earned a lon g li ne of iceboxes and ice refrigerators including such brands as Fleetwood, Coolcrator, and Economizer.

Somewhere along the way ciry maps co rrupted the spelling of Henkel to its present form of Henkle. Before the brewery began making ice about 1889 most ice for Gallipolis was cut out of the Ohio River,· Chickamauga Creek, ponds, and other small streams. This ice would be buried several feet under ground where the temperature is always about 56-58 degrees. The ice would be packed in salt or sawdust, wrapped in strips of flannel and then taken to these underground ice houses. Occasionally straw was also usee! as insulation . Ice could: be kept under ground for seve ral months. Two of the large r Gallipolis icbhouses were located on Texas Road and at the corner of Fourth Avenue and Court Street. In late summer ice might be shipped in by rail from Ca nada. The extremely warm U.S. winters of 1889 and 1890 stimulated the use of mechanical refrigerati611 for freezing and storage.

Everybody else had an icebox. The typical (lallia icebox of the early part of the 20th century consisted of a wooden box lined with tin or zinc. These iceboxes were insulated wit~.Eork, though some rural iceboxes might be insulated with sawdust. A drip pan inside the icebox collected the melted water. That pan had to be emptied every day. About 1940 the Gallipolis Ice Company came out with a "modern airconditioned ice refrigerator." This new breed (it wasn't an icebox and it wasn't a refrigerator) was advertised "as being as different from the icebox of twenty ·years ago as the one-horse shay of yes:terday is different from the streamlined automobile of today." The ''modern air-conditioned ice refrigerator" kept the ice from melting as fast as it melted in the wooden chest iceboxes, but you still needed to have ice delivered to your house several times a week. In 1940 Gallipolis Ice Company kept 6 trucks on the road daily in order to supply the needs of Gallipolis and the surrpunding area.The deliveryman would bring the block of ice up to your door in a dripless canvas bag. In. earlier days the iceman used giant ice tongs and often dripped the melting ice on your floor, But ,by 1940 the deliveryman was usually "drip free." Once at the refrigerator he would take .

He would then personally place the ice in the icebox. The Gallipolis Ice Company had its origins in 1900 when George E. Bush started the company. For the first 20 years of operation , Gallipolis Ice Co. made ice from stea m absorption . In 1921 they switched to a steam driven compression system. In the mid 1920's electricity was used for the first time in the ice-making process. In 1935 they switched to diesel. By 1940 Gallipolis Ice Co. could produce some 20 tons of ice per day. In 1940 ice came not just in chunks but also in cubes and crushed. Gallipolis Ice Co. also dealt in water fountains and earned a lon g li ne of iceboxes and ice refrigerators including such brands as Fleetwood, Coolcrator, and Economizer.

Somewhere along the way ciry maps co rrupted the spelling of Henkel to its present form of Henkle. Before the brewery began making ice about 1889 most ice for Gallipolis was cut out of the Ohio River,· Chickamauga Creek, ponds, and other small streams. This ice would be buried several feet under ground where the temperature is always about 56-58 degrees. The ice would be packed in salt or sawdust, wrapped in strips of flannel and then taken to these underground ice houses. Occasionally straw was also usee! as insulation . Ice could: be kept under ground for seve ral months. Two of the large r Gallipolis icbhouses were located on Texas Road and at the corner of Fourth Avenue and Court Street. In late summer ice might be shipped in by rail from Ca nada. The extremely warm U.S. winters of 1889 and 1890 stimulated the use of mechanical refrigerati611 for freezing and storage.

I ------L-~.-.---·- GALLIPOLIS -This year, Gallia County pepper producers contracted with Southern Produce Distributors, a ·company which prepares peppers for processing. Because Southern Produce will only cut and halve peppers for temporary storage in jars, the quality of our product even more critical this year. To help meer the expectations of this new company, OSU Extension is offering producers, especiaUy new growers, an opportunity to brush up on their pepper production knowledge. A production seminar is scheduled for this Wednesday from 89:30 p.m. at the C.H. McKenzie Agricultural Center in Gallipolis. . Meeting topics will include site selection and preparation; weed, disease and insect control; fertilization schedules and pH requirements; effects of temperature and bloom drop; control of blossom and rot; color and quality expectations of Southern Produce Distributors; and the procedure for mixed pepper delivery. Following the production program, a representative from Columbus Irrigation will present a short overview of drip irrigation, and answer grower questions. During the program, special attention will be focused on the preventi!'n ofblossom-end rot, and the environmental and cultural conditions that cause the disonler. Theie will also be an emphasis on insect control, specificaUy management of the European Corn Borer and related spray schedules. Because the peppers will be contained in jars shan-term prior to proceSsing, producers are urg~:d to practice conscientioUs insec;t control at critical times during the season. This wiU be somewhat of an experimental year for pepper growers. A new company, greater expectations, and two new varieties never before grown in the -county, will :make this season a · learning experience_for all of us. The production meeting is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served. For more information, please caU the ' OSU Extension Office at 4467007. from the Ohio River.

A production seminar is scheduled for this Wednesday from 89:30 p.m. at the C.H. McKenzie Agricultural Center in Gallipolis. . Meeting topics will include site selection and preparation; weed, disease and insect control; fertilization schedules and pH requirements; effects of temperature and bloom drop; control of blossom and rot; color and quality expectations of Southern Produce Distributors; and the procedure for mixed pepper delivery. Following the production program, a representative from Columbus Irrigation will present a short overview of drip irrigation, and answer grower questions. During the program, special attention will be focused on the preventi!'n ofblossom-end rot, and the environmental and cultural conditions that cause the disonler. Theie will also be an emphasis on insect control, specificaUy management of the European Corn Borer and related spray schedules. Because the peppers will be contained in jars shan-term prior to proceSsing, producers are urg~:d to practice conscientioUs insec;t control at critical times during the season. This wiU be somewhat of an experimental year for pepper growers. A new company, greater expectations, and two new varieties never before grown in the -county, will :make this season a · learning experience_for all of us. The production meeting is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served. For more information, please caU the ' OSU Extension Office at 4467007. from the Ohio River. Rates for the campground are as foUows: nightly, $20; weekly, _$75; monthly, $150; and seasonal, which lasts from April to November, $650. Those interested in tent camping can do so for $10 a night.
