Husband and
wife convicted
ELYRIA (AP) - A husband
and wife have been convicted of
c barges that they pocketed nearly $500,000 m a scam pmnming
qUick money through foundation grants.
Larry Hensley, 56, and Carol
Hensley, 53. of Lorain, withdrew
their innocent pleas Tuesday and
pleaded no contest to engaging
in a pattern of corrupt activiry
and possession of criminal tools.
Judge Kosma Glavas of Lorain
Counry Co.mmon Pleas Court
fo und them guilty and ordered a
presentence report. The corrupt
activity count carries a maximum eight years in prison and
the criminal tools count carries a
maximum one-year sentence.
The plea change came as their
trial was scheduled to start and
more than a year after investigac
tors seized postal -:nachines, computers and $40,000 in a basement
safe from their home.
Prosecutors
alleged
that
bel\veen December 1998 and
August 1999 the Hensleys masterminded a scam in which consumers paid S39 to $45 for the
names of foundations that would
award cash grams.
The scam was an "absolute
falsehood ," .said Lorain Counry
AssJstant Prosecutor Jonathan
Rosenbaum . The couple mailed
446 ,000 fli ers advertising the
offer.
In October, the Better Business Bureau m Cleveland caUed
Larry Hensley the ."Sultan of
Schemes" and sai d he had creat- .

schoo l-funding S}~ tem is unconstitutional.
The state's ntain response to
the co urt is expected in Gov. Bob
Taft's 2002-2003 budget. to be
released in la te Jlnu ary.
Under current law, the tmmmum that the stare and districts
must spend on children in the
2001-2002 sc hoo l year is $4,294.
The. committee proposed mcreasing that ro $4,414.
''We actually are making re commendations for a comprehenSIVe and pretty far-reaching
response," said committee member Rep.JeiTJacobson, a Republican from Pj&gt;_illip~burg .
Sen. Eric Fingerhu t of Cleveland, one of two Democrats on
the committee, said Democrats
still prefer the "market basket"
approach advocated by a coalition
of schools that challenged the
state's system of school funding.
Under that concept, the state
identifies the elements of a quality education, then determines
their cost.
Under Augenblick's formula,
th·e state identifies how much successful distri cts are spending and
recommends an amount based on
those districts' costs.

COLUMBUS (AI') The
state would add from $600 miUion
to $800 milli on a yea r to the education budget to respo nd to a
cou rr order to fix Ohio·~ schoolfundin g syste m , accordmg to a
proposal front a legislauve co mn1ittee.
The committee - o ne of two
House-Senate comnuttees studying the state's school-funding formula - on Tuesday recommended increases in spending on
schoolchildren, including:
-R~ising the minim~m spent
per pupil by about Sl20 next year.
-Giving districts more money
for transportation and special and
vocational education.
-Providing state money to
pay for an extra high school graduation requirement that lawmakers previously approved but didn 't
fund .
The six- member committee
has been studyin g a formula
developed by co nsultant John
Augenblick io determine minimum per-pupil spending.
The committee plans a tinal
report before year's end. Incoming
lawmakers could adopt some; ill
or none of the recommendations.

i:Iture· has now become the political arm of the Bush campaign ... .
They are determined. to make sur~
that George Bush wins thi s campaign at all costs."
Th e GOP lea ders, Speaker Tom ·
fl'~:ney and Senate Pre sid~.~·nt john
McKay, said .they were acting to
prcsnve the state's right to h ~WL' its
electors counted in the Elcctor.1l
College on Dec. 18 , and had not
been prcmn·ed by Bush's campaign
to :tct.
"Our sole respons ibtliry w1 ll be
to put fiJrth a slate of electo" that
is untain ted and t nsurcs that Florid1's 25 dt:ctora l votes count .in this
ckccion, regardle ss for who m they
voted, said M cKay at a m~ws. . conference.
He added that his prcforence
was for dec tors loyal to Bush, saying they should be appoimcd
"based upon the. vote totals that
wl~re available on Novcmbn 14,
and equally important, on tht' laws
that were in place as ·o f the date of
t~e election ,on Nove mber 7."
House Majority Leader Mike
' Fasano, also appearing on the
"Toda/' program Thursday, said
the legislature's decision to name a

World War II sang by lyri,ist
Fran k Loe~ser.
"He satd, ' Pratse the Lord and
pass the amn1unition,"' Edwards
said . "A lot of people claimed
credit for saying that , but it was
Howell Forgy, who had a little
church down in Murray. Ky."
Several references and Forgy's
son, Jonathan, concur that it was
Forgy who uttered the line
when asked to say a prayer fo r
the N ew Orleans' crew.
Edwards, who dropped out of
high school to JOin th e Navy at
age 17, got in only because hts
father signed his application and
a friendly recruiter winked at his
shortco mings .
" I was 5-foot-3 and a half and
weighed 132 pounds; yo u were
supposed to be 5-4 to get in ,"
Edwards said . "They said, 'Can
you stretc h a little?' ·, stre tc hed
abo ut a quart~r of an mc h , and
they took care of the other quar-.
ter inch."
Edwards earned S2 I a month
as a gunner's m ate on the N ew
Ork·ans. He was the " hot-shell
nun ," who se job w:ts to catrh
the she ll s ejected from the 5in ch anti-aircraft guns and dispose of them.
His gun c'rew beg;m n: turning:
fire within two minutes of the
Japanese attack - not enough
tim e 'to be scared, Edwards said.
"I star ted out that morning as
a boy. That afternoon, [ was a
man," he said. "It was like that for
a lot of us."
Edwards said it took him several years after joining the Pearl
Harbor Survivors Association to
return to Hawaii for one of the
group's COJ?Ventions. Even then,
he did so only because his wife,
Dottie, wanted to go.
In a way, she had been there
with Edwards during the attack.
She had given her high school
sweetheart her photograph.
" I hung · that picture in my
locker, and it Went through the
war with me," Edwards said. "I've
still got it. It 's hanging on the
wall right now in our bedroom ."

House prepares to detail how compensation-will work
WASHINGTON (AP) The Clinton
adnnnimation wants to put the Labor
Department m charge of deciding which
nude;n weapons plant workers made ill from
their jobs will be eligibl~ for government
compensation.
The admimstration has circulated on Capitol HiU the draft of an executive order that
would fiU in at least some of the blanks left in
legislation authorizing the new· entitlement
program.
, Aso;igning the Labor Department to run
the benefit program is one of those details .
Union officials and congressional backers of

Pearl

the aid to workers like that idea because the
department has experience runmng other
co mpensauon programs.
However, a program for compensating uranium miners is run by the Justice Department, so there was some debate whether Ju stice, Labor or the Energy Department sho uld
handle the new program .
Sometime next year, the federal government is supposed to begin offering medical
care and SISO,OOO to workers unkn owmgly
exposed to health-robbing radiation , beryUium and silica while working for the nuclear

Husband and

ELYRIA (AP) - A husband
and wife have been convicted of
c barges that they pocketed nearly $500,000 m a scam pmnming
qUick money through foundation grants.
Larry Hensley, 56, and Carol
Hensley, 53. of Lorain, withdrew
their innocent pleas Tuesday and
pleaded no contest to engaging
in a pattern of corrupt activiry
and possession of criminal tools.
Judge Kosma Glavas of Lorain
Counry Co.mmon Pleas Court
fo und them guilty and ordered a
presentence report. The corrupt
activity count carries a maximum eight years in prison and
the criminal tools count carries a
maximum one-year sentence.
The plea change came as their
trial was scheduled to start and
more than a year after investigac
tors seized postal -:nachines, computers and $40,000 in a basement
safe from their home.
Prosecutors
alleged
that
bel\veen December 1998 and
August 1999 the Hensleys masterminded a scam in which consumers paid S39 to $45 for the
names of foundations that would
award cash grams.
The scam was an "absolute
falsehood ," .said Lorain Counry
AssJstant Prosecutor Jonathan
Rosenbaum . The couple mailed
446 ,000 fli ers advertising the
offer.

schoo l-funding S}~ tem is unconstitutional.
The state's ntain response to
the co urt is expected in Gov. Bob
Taft's 2002-2003 budget. to be
released in la te Jlnu ary.
Under current law, the tmmmum that the stare and districts
must spend on children in the
2001-2002 sc hoo l year is $4,294.
The. committee proposed mcreasing that ro $4,414.
''We actually are making re commendations for a comprehenSIVe and pretty far-reaching
response," said committee member Rep.JeiTJacobson, a Republican from Pj&gt;_illip~burg .
Sen. Eric Fingerhu t of Cleveland, one of two Democrats on
the committee, said Democrats
still prefer the "market basket"
approach advocated by a coalition
of schools that challenged the
state's system of school funding.
Under that concept, the state
identifies the elements of a quality education, then determines
their cost.
Under Augenblick's formula,
th·e state identifies how much successful distri cts are spending and
recommends an amount based on
those districts' costs.

COLUMBUS (AI') The
state would add from $600 miUion
to $800 milli on a yea r to the education budget to respo nd to a
cou rr order to fix Ohio·~ schoolfundin g syste m , accordmg to a
proposal front a legislauve co mn1ittee.
The committee - o ne of two
House-Senate comnuttees studying the state's school-funding formula - on Tuesday recommended increases in spending on
schoolchildren, including:
-R~ising the minim~m spent
per pupil by about Sl20 next year.
-Giving districts more money
for transportation and special and
vocational education.
-Providing state money to
pay for an extra high school graduation requirement that lawmakers previously approved but didn 't

i:Iture· has now become the political arm of the Bush campaign ... .
They are determined. to make sur~
that George Bush wins thi s campaign at all costs."
Th e GOP lea ders, Speaker Tom ·
fl'~:ney and Senate Pre sid~.~·nt john
McKay, said .they were acting to
prcsnve the state's right to h ~WL' its
electors counted in the Elcctor.1l
College on Dec. 18 , and had not
been prcmn·ed by Bush's campaign
to :tct.
"Our sole respons ibtliry w1 ll be
to put fiJrth a slate of electo" that
is untain ted and t nsurcs that Florid1's 25 dt:ctora l votes count .in this
ckccion, regardle ss for who m they
voted, said M cKay at a m~ws. . conference.
He added that his prcforence
was for dec tors loyal to Bush, saying they should be appoimcd
"based upon the. vote totals that
wl~re available on Novcmbn 14,
and equally important, on tht' laws
that were in place as ·o f the date of
t~e election ,on Nove mber 7."
House Majority Leader Mike
' Fasano, also appearing on the
"Toda/' program Thursday, said
the legislature's decision to name a

World War II sang by lyri,ist
Fran k Loe~ser.
"He satd, ' Pratse the Lord and
pass the amn1unition,"' Edwards
said . "A lot of people claimed
credit for saying that , but it was
Howell Forgy, who had a little
church down in Murray. Ky."
Several references and Forgy's
son, Jonathan, concur that it was
Forgy who uttered the line
when asked to say a prayer fo r
the N ew Orleans' crew.
Edwards, who dropped out of
high school to JOin th e Navy at
age 17, got in only because hts
father signed his application and
a friendly recruiter winked at his
shortco mings .
" I was 5-foot-3 and a half and
weighed 132 pounds; yo u were
supposed to be 5-4 to get in ,"
Edwards said . "They said, 'Can
you stretc h a little?' ·, stre tc hed
abo ut a quart~r of an mc h , and
they took care of the other quar-.
ter inch."
Edwards earned S2 I a month
as a gunner's m ate on the N ew
Ork·ans. He was the " hot-shell
nun ," who se job w:ts to catrh
the she ll s ejected from the 5in ch anti-aircraft guns and dispose of them.
His gun c'rew beg;m n: turning:
fire within two minutes of the
Japanese attack - not enough
tim e 'to be scared, Edwards said.
"I star ted out that morning as
a boy. That afternoon, [ was a
man," he said. "It was like that for
a lot of us."
Edwards said it took him several years after joining the Pearl
Harbor Survivors Association to
return to Hawaii for one of the
group's COJ?Ventions. Even then,
he did so only because his wife,
Dottie, wanted to go.
In a way, she had been there
with Edwards during the attack.
She had given her high school
sweetheart her photograph.
" I hung · that picture in my
locker, and it Went through the
war with me," Edwards said. "I've
still got it. It 's hanging on the
wall right now in our bedroom ."

TODAY IN HISTORY
BY THE ASSOCIATED PRES$

Today is Thursday, Dec. 7, the 342nd day of 2000. There are 24
days left in the year.
Today's Highlight in History:
.
On Dec. 7. 1941, Japanese forces attacked Ameri can and British
territories and possessions in the Pacific, lncluding the home base of
the U.S. Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii .
On this date:
In 1787, Delaware became the first state to ratifY the U.S. Constitution.
In 1796, electors chose John Adams to be' the second president of
the United States.
In 1836, Martin Van Buren was elected the •:ighth president of the
United St:.tes.
In 1842, the New York Philharmonic gave its first concert.
In 1946, fire broke out at the Winecoff Hotel in Atlanta; th~ blaze
killed 119 people, including hotel founder W. Frank Winecoff.
In 1972, America's last moon mission to date was launched as
Apollo 17 blasted off from Cape CanaveraL
In 1982, convic ted murderer Charlie Brooks Jr. became the first
U.S. prisoner to be executed by injection, at a prison in Huntsville,
Texas.
In 1985, retired Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart died in
Hanover, N.H., at age 70:
In 1987, Soviet leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev set foot on American
soil for the first time, arriving for a Washington summit with Pre,ident Reagan.
In 1988, a major earthquake in .the Soviet Union devastated
northern Armenia; official estimates put the death toll at 25,000.
Ten years ago: As President Bush arrived in Venezud:. on the last
stop of his South American tour, his chief spokcsinan, Marlin
Fitzwater, warned Iraq that there was "no lessening inJ the threat of
war," despite Iraq's pmrnise to release its hostagl'~.
Five years ago: Under Republican pre&lt;Sure, Pre11dent Clinton
reluctantly presented a seven-year balanced-budget plan that was
quickly criticized b'y GOP lawmakers. A 746-pound probe f;om the
"Galileo" spacecraft hurtled into Jupiter's atmosphere, se nding back
data to the mothership before it was presumably destroyed .
One year ago: NASA sc1entim all but gave up hope of contacting
the Mars Polar Lander, last heard from four days e.trlit•r as it began
its descent toward lhe Red Planet.
·

haven't done it lately. test your smoke
alarms to be sure they're working.
Abby, I hope your readers will take
this message to heart. fire is fast -. so
fast, you may have only a few moments
to get out, However, if you react quickly, you can survive a fire. fire drills real- ·
ly are the "Great Escape." Planning
ahead and practicing carefully are the
keys to survival.- SEN. EDWARD M.
KENNEDY. NFPA HONORARY
CHAIR,
FIRE
PREVENTION
WEEK2000
DEAR SENATOR KENNEDY:
That you are lending your name to this
lifesaving effort is te.rific. Too often,
lessons about fire safety are learned the
hard way in the aftermath of a
tragedy. Every year, more than 4,000
people die from fire-related injuries in
the United States- the great majority

of them in homes. In an effort to combat that loss, the National fire Prevention Association has spearheaded "fire
Drills: The Great Escape!" - a multiyear public safety campaign to highlight
the importance of planning and practicing fire drills.
.
National fire Prevention Week runs
from Oct. 8 to Oct. 14. Across North
America, fire departments will be
teaching these important lessons.
Please. readers. plan and p-ractice your
fire drill today. It shouldn't have to take
a tragedy to get people to pay attention.
DEAR ABBY: I recently became
engaged and am looking for just the
right dress . The ISsue l am having trouble with is that I have a rather large tattoo of an orchid on my chest. I'm not
sure if it would be appropriate to
expose the tattoo at the wedding. l also

have other tattoos on my wrist and
shoulders that may be exposed.
Our families arc not formally . rehgious and they have seen the tattoos
before, but I'm afraid of lookmg cheap
or tacky with a huge flower chmbing
out of the bust of my dress.
Any ideas? - NEEDS TO KNOW
IN SAN CLEMENTE
DEAR NEEDS TO KNOW: Only
this: When in doubt, cover up 1
for everything you need to know
about wedding planning, order "How
to Have a Lovely Weddin g." Send a
business-sized, self-addressed envelope,
plus check or money order for S3.95
($4.50 in Canada) to : Dear Abby, Wedding Booklet, P.O. Box 447, Mount

NUTRITIONIST, MEIGS COUNT'I HEALTH DEPARTMENT

A»Jerican spellings
taktng root .overseas
• The Times-Picayune. New Orleans, on the increasing worldwide acceptance of American spellings:
You can't blame the English for thinking that Americans have
hijacked their language. but it was going to happen sometime.
There are about 270 million people in the United States. compared with only about 50 million people in England proper. And
since the United States is the world's leader in science, technology
and economic affairs, it's not surprising that Amt&gt;rican spellings of
technical torms are gaining acceptance all around the world.
Some Britons recognize that and are trying to adjust. The Quali·fications and Curriculum Authority, a government agency that
oversees academic exams, recently asked schoolchildren to use
''internationally standardizedn- which is tO say, American - versions of scientific words. Instead of writing "foetus" and "sulphate,"
British students will be asked to write "fetus" and "sulfate."
Even though children won't be penalized if they continue using
the British spellings, the reaction in the British press has been furi ous. "We now find an American fifth column in our own midst," the
Independent lamented.
"It's nonsense," one British science professor told the Telegraph.
"It's more to do with cultural imperialism by America than wanting to standardize."
In other words, the country that just about invented imperialism
is complaining about being on the business end of it.
If America's position in the world is a form of imperialism, it's cer~
tainly a gentler kind than the British ever practiced.
When the sun never sl!ts on areas covered by American telecommunications networks, is that really so bad?
•The Herald Bulletin, Anderson, Ind., on the election:
• The Founding Fathers intended this country to be a constitutional republic. not a direct democracy. With today's instant communication and the nation's long-standing practice of freedom of
political speech, it's time to pressure those who re present us.
, Regardless of whether you support (Vice President Al) Gore or
• George W Bush, we encourage our readers to take action.
If you believe Gore should conce&lt;ie, get online, pick up a telephone or put pen to paper. Tell everyone from the White House, the
Democratic National Committee, your senators and repre&lt;~cnt~tivcs
right down to the local Democratic Party to encourage Gore to
· concede.
If you believe Bush should exit the stage, write the Republican
National Committee, your senators and representatives and the iocal
Republican Party.

SAINTS AND SINNERS

Divorce not an easy solution fo~ children or adult
Are we dunging our v1ews on what
divorce doe' to children' If so, it will come
too late for many a divorce-orphaned child to
whom the harm has already been done.
The effects "f divorce on children have
been glossed over in the last .25 years by such
glib cover-ups as, "Sure, divorce can be hard
on chd&amp;en, but they get over it."
Ask almost anybody whether a co uple
wh?se marriage is floundering should a~rec
to stay together for the sake of the children
and you wi ll be told, "Absolutely not."
Now, a 11cw study titled "The Unexpected
Legacy of Divorce,' ' by Judith Wallerstein,Julia
I ew1' md Sandra Blakeslee, makes us, in the
\VOrd.., uf .l New York Times book reviewer.
"b~c the truth that a divorce can fi·ee one or
both parents to ~ta rt a new and more hopeful
life .md 'llll hurt their chi ldren."
It 's still the children who pay in divorce, says
the review, "and they go on paying well into
adulthood."
This latest research is not the first to have
reached the new book's conclusions. David
Goodman, ;child psychologist and author of
"P:.rent's Gtnde to the Emotional Needs of
Children," remark&gt; how often a husband and
wife. weary of contending with a loveless

marriage or incompatible mate, will ask a
counselor:"Would it matter much to my ch ildrel1 if we get a divorce' Wouldn 't they be
better otl' to have two separated parents than
two parents who stay together but cannot love
each other?"
What these parents want to hear, says
Goodman, is: "No, it really wouldn't matter.
Go ahead with your divorce. Your children
will get over it. There are millions of children
of divorce in America. They all get over it. in
time." But the wise counselor won't tell them
this, says Goodman, because he has seen "too

front of sophistication but never really losing
the look of irremediable grief in their eyes.;'
Goodman says, "Nothing which you can
give a divorce-orphaned child can make up to
him what he has forever lost." Down deep he
believes that "his parents rejected him, despi'te
their assurances that. ' Mommie and Daddy
both love you very much.' He knows they did
not think enough of him to reconcile their
differences and make a marriage - and a
home for him."
Goodman says he hopes the day will come
when there will be a children's advocate in
every divorce court to defend th e rights of
children .
Such an advocate may demand, says Goodman, ''that, in spite of all the evidence, the
divorce should not be grantd because there is
equally val id evidence ·that the ch ild loves and needs -both parents."
The most pervasive fact to emerge from the
Wallerstein study was the enormity of the
grief all the children felt over their parents'
divorce. They were "sad· beyond measure.''The
pain was there, hard and hurting, in every one
of the children studied.

It i' important to make healthy choices so you
can accomplish all the things you want to do at this
time .
There is no need to increase your stress level by
trying to lose weight or making drastic changes in
your lifestyle. Just relax and make some minor
adjustments in activity and eating habits so you can
have increased energy and plenty of holiday spirit.
Activity is an essential component of good
health. Most people can enjoy outdoor activity all
year. This is a great time of year to get moving and
keep moving. Take a long.walk to relax and decrease
stress. A lap around an indoor mall is a good way to
warm up for Holiday shopping. Regarclless of the
form of exercise that fits into your lifestyle, the bottom line is "get moving.
Be adventurous but realistic concerning Holiday
foods. Plan ahead for Holiday festivities. If you are
very hungry, it's natural to overeat. The key is to
have a light snack an hour or so before the event.
Enjoy a small muffin or half of a sandwich before
you go out to ensure that you 'U be able to make
more sensible choices later.
Balance is necessary for remaining healthy during
the Holiday Season. Don't worry about enjoying a
favorite Holiday food or the party at work. The goal
is to balance what you eat and your physical activity over several days. Try consuming a light breakfast
and lunch before an evening buffet. Take a long walk
before and after the party to clear your head and
digest the meal. Enjoy all the treats by making sensible choices.
Buffets are a great way to celebrate special occasions. What could be more tempting than a buffet

table bden with a mouth-watering feast? But \vhen
foods .a re left out at room temperature for long periods of time, buffrts ca n providl" an inviting environment for bacteria. For consumer inforination about

TODAY IN HISTORY
BY THE ASSOCIATED PRES$

Today is Thursday, Dec. 7, the 342nd day of 2000. There are 24
days left in the year.
Today's Highlight in History:
.
On Dec. 7. 1941, Japanese forces attacked Ameri can and British
territories and possessions in the Pacific, lncluding the home base of
the U.S. Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii .
On this date:
In 1787, Delaware became the first state to ratifY the U.S. Constitution.
In 1796, electors chose John Adams to be' the second president of
the United States.
In 1836, Martin Van Buren was elected the •:ighth president of the
United St:.tes.
In 1842, the New York Philharmonic gave its first concert.
In 1946, fire broke out at the Winecoff Hotel in Atlanta; th~ blaze
killed 119 people, including hotel founder W. Frank Winecoff.
In 1972, America's last moon mission to date was launched as
Apollo 17 blasted off from Cape CanaveraL
In 1982, convic ted murderer Charlie Brooks Jr. became the first
U.S. prisoner to be executed by injection, at a prison in Huntsville,
Texas.
In 1985, retired Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart died in
Hanover, N.H., at age 70:
In 1987, Soviet leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev set foot on American
soil for the first time, arriving for a Washington summit with Pre,ident Reagan.
In 1988, a major earthquake in .the Soviet Union devastated
northern Armenia; official estimates put the death toll at 25,000.
Ten years ago: As President Bush arrived in Venezud:. on the last
stop of his South American tour, his chief spokcsinan, Marlin
Fitzwater, warned Iraq that there was "no lessening inJ the threat of
war," despite Iraq's pmrnise to release its hostagl'~.
Five years ago: Under Republican pre&lt;Sure, Pre11dent Clinton
reluctantly presented a seven-year balanced-budget plan that was
quickly criticized b'y GOP lawmakers. A 746-pound probe f;om the
"Galileo" spacecraft hurtled into Jupiter's atmosphere, se nding back
data to the mothership before it was presumably destroyed .
One year ago: NASA sc1entim all but gave up hope of contacting
the Mars Polar Lander, last heard from four days e.trlit•r as it began
its descent toward lhe Red Planet.

Abby, I hope your readers will take
this message to heart. fire is fast -. so
fast, you may have only a few moments
to get out, However, if you react quickly, you can survive a fire. fire drills real- ·
ly are the "Great Escape." Planning
ahead and practicing carefully are the
keys to survival.- SEN. EDWARD M.
KENNEDY. NFPA HONORARY
CHAIR,
FIRE
PREVENTION
WEEK2000
DEAR SENATOR KENNEDY:
That you are lending your name to this
lifesaving effort is te.rific. Too often,
lessons about fire safety are learned the
hard way in the aftermath of a
tragedy. Every year, more than 4,000
people die from fire-related injuries in
the United States- the great majority

of them in homes. In an effort to combat that loss, the National fire Prevention Association has spearheaded "fire
Drills: The Great Escape!" - a multiyear public safety campaign to highlight
the importance of planning and practicing fire drills.
.
National fire Prevention Week runs
from Oct. 8 to Oct. 14. Across North
America, fire departments will be
teaching these important lessons.
Please. readers. plan and p-ractice your
fire drill today. It shouldn't have to take
a tragedy to get people to pay attention.
DEAR ABBY: I recently became
engaged and am looking for just the
right dress . The ISsue l am having trouble with is that I have a rather large tattoo of an orchid on my chest. I'm not
sure if it would be appropriate to
expose the tattoo at the wedding. l also

have other tattoos on my wrist and
shoulders that may be exposed.
Our families arc not formally . rehgious and they have seen the tattoos
before, but I'm afraid of lookmg cheap

Fun,Jood and fitness for the holidays
BY JACKIE STARCHER
NUTRITIONIST, MEIGS COUNT'I HEALTH DEPARTMENT

A»Jerican spellings
taktng root .overseas
• The Times-Picayune. New Orleans, on the increasing worldwide acceptance of American spellings:
You can't blame the English for thinking that Americans have
hijacked their language. but it was going to happen sometime.
There are about 270 million people in the United States. compared with only about 50 million people in England proper. And
since the United States is the world's leader in science, technology
and economic affairs, it's not surprising that Amt&gt;rican spellings of
technical torms are gaining acceptance all around the world.
Some Britons recognize that and are trying to adjust. The Quali·fications and Curriculum Authority, a government agency that
oversees academic exams, recently asked schoolchildren to use
''internationally standardizedn- which is tO say, American - versions of scientific words. Instead of writing "foetus" and "sulphate,"
British students will be asked to write "fetus" and "sulfate."
Even though children won't be penalized if they continue using
the British spellings, the reaction in the British press has been furi ous. "We now find an American fifth column in our own midst," the
Independent lamented.
"It's nonsense," one British science professor told the Telegraph.
"It's more to do with cultural imperialism by America than wanting to standardize."
In other words, the country that just about invented imperialism
is complaining about being on the business end of it.
If America's position in the world is a form of imperialism, it's cer~
tainly a gentler kind than the British ever practiced.
When the sun never sl!ts on areas covered by American telecommunications networks, is that really so bad?
•The Herald Bulletin, Anderson, Ind., on the election:
• The Founding Fathers intended this country to be a constitutional republic. not a direct democracy. With today's instant communication and the nation's long-standing practice of freedom of
political speech, it's time to pressure those who re present us.
, Regardless of whether you support (Vice President Al) Gore or
• George W Bush, we encourage our readers to take action.
If you believe Gore should conce&lt;ie, get online, pick up a telephone or put pen to paper. Tell everyone from the White House, the
Democratic National Committee, your senators and repre&lt;~cnt~tivcs
right down to the local Democratic Party to encourage Gore to
· concede.
If you believe Bush should exit the stage, write the Republican
National Committee, your senators and representatives and the iocal
Republican Party.

SAINTS AND SINNERS

Divorce not an easy solution fo~ children or adult
Are we dunging our v1ews on what
divorce doe' to children' If so, it will come
too late for many a divorce-orphaned child to
whom the harm has already been done.
The effects "f divorce on children have
been glossed over in the last .25 years by such
glib cover-ups as, "Sure, divorce can be hard
on chd&amp;en, but they get over it."
Ask almost anybody whether a co uple
wh?se marriage is floundering should a~rec
to stay together for the sake of the children
and you wi ll be told, "Absolutely not."
Now, a 11cw study titled "The Unexpected
Legacy of Divorce,' ' by Judith Wallerstein,Julia
I ew1' md Sandra Blakeslee, makes us, in the
\VOrd.., uf .l New York Times book reviewer.
"b~c the truth that a divorce can fi·ee one or
both parents to ~ta rt a new and more hopeful
life .md 'llll hurt their chi ldren."
It 's still the children who pay in divorce, says
the review, "and they go on paying well into
adulthood."
This latest research is not the first to have
reached the new book's conclusions. David
Goodman, ;child psychologist and author of
"P:.rent's Gtnde to the Emotional Needs of
Children," remark&gt; how often a husband and
wife. weary of contending with a loveless

marriage or incompatible mate, will ask a
counselor:"Would it matter much to my ch ildrel1 if we get a divorce' Wouldn 't they be
better otl' to have two separated parents than
two parents who stay together but cannot love
each other?"
What these parents want to hear, says
Goodman, is: "No, it really wouldn't matter.
Go ahead with your divorce. Your children
will get over it. There are millions of children
of divorce in America. They all get over it. in
time." But the wise counselor won't tell them
this, says Goodman, because he has seen "too
many of these children putting up a brave

front of sophistication but never really losing
the look of irremediable grief in their eyes.;'
Goodman says, "Nothing which you can
give a divorce-orphaned child can make up to
him what he has forever lost." Down deep he
believes that "his parents rejected him, despi'te
their assurances that. ' Mommie and Daddy
both love you very much.' He knows they did
not think enough of him to reconcile their
differences and make a marriage - and a
home for him."
Goodman says he hopes the day will come
when there will be a children's advocate in
every divorce court to defend th e rights of
children .
Such an advocate may demand, says Goodman, ''that, in spite of all the evidence, the
divorce should not be grantd because there is
equally val id evidence ·that the ch ild loves and needs -both parents."
The most pervasive fact to emerge from the
Wallerstein study was the enormity of the
grief all the children felt over their parents'
divorce. They were "sad· beyond measure.''The
pain was there, hard and hurting, in every one
of the children studied.

It i' important to make healthy choices so you
can accomplish all the things you want to do at this
time .
There is no need to increase your stress level by
trying to lose weight or making drastic changes in
your lifestyle. Just relax and make some minor
adjustments in activity and eating habits so you can
have increased energy and plenty of holiday spirit.
Activity is an essential component of good
health. Most people can enjoy outdoor activity all
year. This is a great time of year to get moving and
keep moving. Take a long.walk to relax and decrease
stress. A lap around an indoor mall is a good way to
warm up for Holiday shopping. Regarclless of the
form of exercise that fits into your lifestyle, the bottom line is "get moving.
Be adventurous but realistic concerning Holiday
foods. Plan ahead for Holiday festivities. If you are
very hungry, it's natural to overeat. The key is to
have a light snack an hour or so before the event.
Enjoy a small muffin or half of a sandwich before
you go out to ensure that you 'U be able to make
more sensible choices later.
Balance is necessary for remaining healthy during
the Holiday Season. Don't worry about enjoying a
favorite Holiday food or the party at work. The goal
is to balance what you eat and your physical activity over several days. Try consuming a light breakfast
and lunch before an evening buffet. Take a long walk
before and after the party to clear your head and
digest the meal. Enjoy all the treats by making sensible choices.
Buffets are a great way to celebrate special occasions. What could be more tempting than a buffet

table bden with a mouth-watering feast? But \vhen
foods .a re left out at room temperature for long periods of time, buffrts ca n providl" an inviting environment for bacteria. For consumer inforination about
food safety, call the Meigs County Health Depart·
ment at 992-6626 and ask for Buffet Bonanza:
Keeping Food Safe and The Joy of Giving Food
Safely.
.
Make sure food safety is practiced this season.
Open-faced turkey with gravy
· Here is the. perfect way to use your leftover
turkey this season. Serve this hearty fall sandwich
with .mashed potatoes -make them creamy with

gone through all your leftover roast turkey, substitute

New phones on the horizon
WASH l NGTON (AP)- Computer owners take 1t for granted
that they don't have to buy a new machme each tlme they want to
Jdd or upgrade a program
Now regulators are clemng the path for a new breed of w1reless
phones, personal orgamzers and other gadgets that could add new
opablia1es JUSt as eaSily
It's made poSSJble through an emergmg technology called software-defined rad10 that IS sq versatile It could enable one product
to S\~ltch seamlessly between servmg as a cell phone and rece!Vlng
FM rad1o broadcasts
The mnovanon works by allowmg wireless devices to download
new softwa re to add capab!lmes or perform different funct10ns. For
example, a w1reless phone that IS only used for voice calls can do
JUSt that. But wuh the new technology, the phone could download
new features so It can recetve Internet access - without reqmring
new hardware .
Down the road, that could save consum ers the cost and hassle of
buymg new phone handsets, personal orgamzers or other devices.
Instead, they could keep their ex!Sting gadgets and simply up grade
them l;&gt;y downloading new funct10ns .
To bring the se developn)ents to the market, the Federal CommumcatJOns Comnuss10n IS eyemg some c hanges tn tts polictes. Extstmg federal rules only pernllt authon zauo n of dev1ces with a fixed
'\Ct of parameters

expected "I hursday to propose rules for approvmg new equ1pment

WASHINGTON tAP) - Numbers may stem fimte, but not the
prcc1ous seven- and 1O-d1git variety wh1ch consumers use to d1al
homes, cell phones, fax machines and pagers.
Faced with a shrmking supply, the government 1s working to
more efficiently use and conserve the billions of numbers m 1ts
pool. But regulators say they w1ll steer clear for now of one drasoc
measure: forcing consumers nationw1de to d1al 10 d1gw; to call a
ne1ghbor in the same area code
The demand for numbers and prohferation of new area codes has
taken a toll on the current system wh1ch, left on us own, could
expire m the next I 0 years.
Seeking to push back th&gt;s date by several decades, the Federal
Commumcattons Comm.issmn IS weighmg measures n could
unplement Thursday to make better use of the 2 b1llmn numbers
al,ready allocated and several b,Jhon more still untapped
For example, the conmussion has sought comment on whether to
c barge phone compames for numbers they now get for free That
cou ld ft1rce earners to ensure they have exhausted the1r supply
before requestmg new numbers Industry offiCials say that 1fthey are
c barged a fee for numbers, that cost could end up bemg passed onto
( onsu mers.
The FCC also IS looking at what cnrcna tdecommumca[Jons
co mpames should meet before they quahl)o for add1t1onal numbers
The agency has focused on mak111g the exJStmg diStnbutJou and
LISL' of numbers more effic1ent. Earher th1s year. the FCC moved t()
,tlloc anng phone numbers to local earners 111 blocks of 1,000. The
problem Wl[h rhe old system - wh1ch gave earner 10,000 numbers at .t tune - was that if a company had only 100 customers m
J gll'l'n reg10n, the remam111g 9,900 numbers of the block were ued
up
The FCC hopes that these preservanon tools w11l make 11 poSSlblc ro ;wo1d more extreme measures, such JS addmg new numbers
, or mandatmg that consumers nanonwtdc dtal area codes even for
loc.1l ca lls . That would have requ1red a consumer to d1al 10 d1g1ts to
re.tcht someone With m the same area code.

Gore asks Florida court to set aside Bush's certified victory
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) AI Gore
&gt;&lt;ked Flonda's highest court Wednesday to
set aSJde George W. Bush's certified VIctory
111 the sr.te and to order the 1mmed1ate
count111g of thousands of d!Spured ballots to
settle the "fundamental quesuon" of wh1ch
candtdate got more votes.
"T1me lS of the essence 111 th!S matter,"
Gore satd 111 papers flied with the Flonda
Supreme Court. " If the office at JSsue was
not the presjdency, ... delaying ballot countmg unul after all other usues are resolved
would not be such irremed1able and egregious error"
W1th the White House at stake, the

Democrat asked the lligh court to overturn
leon County Cucmt Court Judge N
Sanders Sauls, who upheld Bush's 537-vote
vtctory and refused to order a hand recount
of some 14,000 disputed ballots
Bush's team asked the court to dismm
Gore's appeal and uphold Sauls' ruhng, calling If "well-reasoned and careful." The Bush
lawyers said the great pubhc interest would
be "frustrated, not furthered, by prolongmg
these legal proceedmgs"
They also said Gore would fa1l even 1f the
Supreme Court reversed the ruling. "Yet
another recount on any sigmficant scale
would likely prove fut1le;' Bush lawyers

wrote .
The Bush lawyers also asked the court, 1f
it accepts Gore's case, to first settle an earher case sent back to 1t on Monday from the
U.S. Supreme Court.
That case Involves earlier hand recounts
that trimmed Bush's statew1de lead from 930
votes to 537. The Flonda Supreme Court
allowed those recounts to be added to the
state's offic1al tally, but the natlon's mne JUS lice on Monday vacated that denswn and

remanded It back to the state court to

New phones on the horizon
WASH l NGTON (AP)- Computer owners take 1t for granted
that they don't have to buy a new machme each tlme they want to
Jdd or upgrade a program
Now regulators are clemng the path for a new breed of w1reless
phones, personal orgamzers and other gadgets that could add new
opablia1es JUSt as eaSily
It's made poSSJble through an emergmg technology called software-defined rad10 that IS sq versatile It could enable one product
to S\~ltch seamlessly between servmg as a cell phone and rece!Vlng
FM rad1o broadcasts
The mnovanon works by allowmg wireless devices to download
new softwa re to add capab!lmes or perform different funct10ns. For
example, a w1reless phone that IS only used for voice calls can do
JUSt that. But wuh the new technology, the phone could download
new features so It can recetve Internet access - without reqmring
new hardware .
Down the road, that could save consum ers the cost and hassle of
buymg new phone handsets, personal orgamzers or other devices.
Instead, they could keep their ex!Sting gadgets and simply up grade
them l;&gt;y downloading new funct10ns .
To bring the se developn)ents to the market, the Federal CommumcatJOns Comnuss10n IS eyemg some c hanges tn tts polictes. Extstmg federal rules only pernllt authon zauo n of dev1ces with a fixed
'\Ct of parameters
Makmg room for the changes m technology, the agency was
expected "I hursday to propose rules for approvmg new equ1pment
th.J.t can bt.• altered.

" Th ts IS an oppor tumty," sa1d corps econo1nist Don S\',recney,

WASHINGTON tAP) - Numbers may stem fimte, but not the
prcc1ous seven- and 1O-d1git variety wh1ch consumers use to d1al
homes, cell phones, fax machines and pagers.
Faced with a shrmking supply, the government 1s working to
more efficiently use and conserve the billions of numbers m 1ts
pool. But regulators say they w1ll steer clear for now of one drasoc
measure: forcing consumers nationw1de to d1al 10 d1gw; to call a
ne1ghbor in the same area code
The demand for numbers and prohferation of new area codes has
taken a toll on the current system wh1ch, left on us own, could
expire m the next I 0 years.
Seeking to push back th&gt;s date by several decades, the Federal
Commumcattons Comm.issmn IS weighmg measures n could
unplement Thursday to make better use of the 2 b1llmn numbers
al,ready allocated and several b,Jhon more still untapped
For example, the conmussion has sought comment on whether to
c barge phone compames for numbers they now get for free That
cou ld ft1rce earners to ensure they have exhausted the1r supply
before requestmg new numbers Industry offiCials say that 1fthey are
c barged a fee for numbers, that cost could end up bemg passed onto
( onsu mers.
The FCC also IS looking at what cnrcna tdecommumca[Jons
co mpames should meet before they quahl)o for add1t1onal numbers
The agency has focused on mak111g the exJStmg diStnbutJou and
LISL' of numbers more effic1ent. Earher th1s year. the FCC moved t()
,tlloc anng phone numbers to local earners 111 blocks of 1,000. The
problem Wl[h rhe old system - wh1ch gave earner 10,000 numbers at .t tune - was that if a company had only 100 customers m
J gll'l'n reg10n, the remam111g 9,900 numbers of the block were ued
up
The FCC hopes that these preservanon tools w11l make 11 poSSlblc ro ;wo1d more extreme measures, such JS addmg new numbers
, or mandatmg that consumers nanonwtdc dtal area codes even for
loc.1l ca lls . That would have requ1red a consumer to d1al 10 d1g1ts to
re.tcht someone With m the same area code.

Gore asks Florida court to set aside Bush's certified victory
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) AI Gore
&gt;&lt;ked Flonda's highest court Wednesday to
set aSJde George W. Bush's certified VIctory
111 the sr.te and to order the 1mmed1ate
count111g of thousands of d!Spured ballots to
settle the "fundamental quesuon" of wh1ch
candtdate got more votes.
"T1me lS of the essence 111 th!S matter,"
Gore satd 111 papers flied with the Flonda
Supreme Court. " If the office at JSsue was
not the presjdency, ... delaying ballot countmg unul after all other usues are resolved
would not be such irremed1able and egregious error"
W1th the White House at stake, the

Democrat asked the lligh court to overturn
leon County Cucmt Court Judge N
Sanders Sauls, who upheld Bush's 537-vote
vtctory and refused to order a hand recount
of some 14,000 disputed ballots
Bush's team asked the court to dismm
Gore's appeal and uphold Sauls' ruhng, calling If "well-reasoned and careful." The Bush
lawyers said the great pubhc interest would
be "frustrated, not furthered, by prolongmg
these legal proceedmgs"
They also said Gore would fa1l even 1f the
Supreme Court reversed the ruling. "Yet
another recount on any sigmficant scale
would likely prove fut1le;' Bush lawyers

wrote .
The Bush lawyers also asked the court, 1f
it accepts Gore's case, to first settle an earher case sent back to 1t on Monday from the
U.S. Supreme Court.
That case Involves earlier hand recounts
that trimmed Bush's statew1de lead from 930
votes to 537. The Flonda Supreme Court
allowed those recounts to be added to the
state's offic1al tally, but the natlon's mne JUS lice on Monday vacated that denswn and

Just 12 percent of children eligible for child care
WASHINGTON (AP) Just 12
percent of ch1ldren e~g1ble for federally
subsidized ch1ld care gm It last year, the
Department of Health and Human Services reported Wednesday as officials
lobb1ed for mort: money in the coming
budget.
The number of children served
inched up from I 998, thanks largely to
states using more welfare money for
child care. But advocates worry that
scarce dollars mean many families, par-

ticularly tne working poor, do not get
tne help they need.
"These new findings demonstrate
tnat too many working families are still
struggling with the high cost of child
care," President Clinton said in a statement. '"We must ensure America's families have access to affordable. quality
child care so tltey ca n balance their
responsibilities both at work and at
home."
HHS Secretary Donna Shalala also

touted the report on Copitol Hill on
Wednesday as she pressed for more child
care money.
The Clinton administration has
pushed for massive increases in child
care spending since the 1996 welfare
ovc;rhaul.requiring many single mothers
who were on welfare co get jobs.
Under the federal progr:1m, states
offer subsidies· 'on a sliding scale, with
th e aid phasing out as a family's income
grows. Parents can use the subsidies to

send their children ro a child care center or to pay a neighbor, friend or rebrive to care for them.
On Wednesday, Shalala urged Congress to approve a $817 million increase
in this program as lawmakers enter final
budget negotiations. That is a significant
increase but much more. modest than
the large-scale child care programs President Clinton proposed in 1998 and
1999.
She hoped the report would help

make Iter case.
In 1999.more than 14.7 nulhon children were eligible for cluld care subsidies using federal standards, but fewer
than 1.8 million children got the help,
HHS said in its annual report. That
c01npares with just over 1.5 million in
1998.
Participation rates varied widely
across the country, from 5 percent of
children in Connecticut to 25 percent
in West Virginia .

Hillary Clinton sar.s health
care to be a priority
WASH INGTON (AP)- Battle scars from rhe war over Hillary
Rodham Clinton's fai led healthcare plan will not keep her (rom
focusing on the issue m the Senate, the New York senator-elect
sa id Wednesday.
In her first mterview with
reporters since arriving on Capitol Hill , the first lady also sa1d she
will cut back her national comnntmems, such as prodigious fund
raising, tO make ~e rving New
Yorkers her fmt priority.
Clinton made health care a
centerpiece of ber campaign and
said she will follow through on
her election promise to plug away
at the issue. despite her troubled
lnstory with it.
As first lady, she led an unsuccessful effort 111 1993 and 1994 to
overhaul the nation's health-care
financing system. Decractors
likened her swee ping plan to
socialized medicine, and the proposal's eventual downfall forced
'\er t!) retreat fJOm . the public
advocai;y of policy in her husband's admJmstration.

"Health care still is one of my
priority concerns. I think it has to
be," Clinton said Wednesday.
She Clinton clearly has learned
from the disastrous reception her
ambitious
nud-1990s
p lan
received.
" I think you have to go at it in
a step-by-step way," Clinton said.
" It's doubtful that m an · evenly
divided Senate, for example, that
you could come up with any k.Jnd
of plan that would improve
access, affordability and quality
without there being a' lot. of
bipartisan support. And I'd like to
build on what's worked."
During th e campaign,
recommended tmportation of
cheaper prescription drugs from
Canada and a "patients' bill of
rights".that would give people the
right to sue their health maintenance organizations. She also
spoke Wednesday of expanding
the Children's Health In sura nee
Program for low-income child ren .
and making part of the. healthcare costs of self-employed people
tax deductible .

dream job for No. 16 Virginia
come in the game and
shoot the ball.
It's a job Friel sometimes
gets in trouble with teammates
for not taking literally enough,
and Wednesday night was an
example.
Friel hit four 3-pointers in a
span of just more than five
n1inutes, turning a close game
into a runaway as the Cavaliers
beat Ohio 90-71.
"After I hit that first one,
Donald Hand pitched it to me
and I didn't take a deep one
and he got on me," Friel said
after scoring 16 points, his
high at Virginia since he transferred from Notre Dame in
1998.
The Cavaliers, increasingly
impressing coach Pete Gillen
with their unselfish play, know
Friel can change a game
quickly.
"When he's in the game, we
really have to find a way to
find him," said Hand, the Cavaliers point guard and secondbest 3-point threat. "He's the
type of guy that can run off
three or four in a row."
Frid was 4-of-5 from
behind the arc, the first to start
a 9-0 run and the lasi two to
give Virginia a 67-45 \ead with
10:30 remaining.
" They're finding

Inside:

Just 12 percent of children eligible for child care
WASHINGTON (AP) Just 12
percent of ch1ldren e~g1ble for federally
subsidized ch1ld care gm It last year, the
Department of Health and Human Services reported Wednesday as officials
lobb1ed for mort: money in the coming
budget.
The number of children served
inched up from I 998, thanks largely to
states using more welfare money for
child care. But advocates worry that
scarce dollars mean many families, par-

ticularly tne working poor, do not get
tne help they need.
"These new findings demonstrate
tnat too many working families are still
struggling with the high cost of child
care," President Clinton said in a statement. '"We must ensure America's families have access to affordable. quality
child care so tltey ca n balance their
responsibilities both at work and at
home."
HHS Secretary Donna Shalala also

touted the report on Copitol Hill on
Wednesday as she pressed for more child
care money.
The Clinton administration has
pushed for massive increases in child
care spending since the 1996 welfare
ovc;rhaul.requiring many single mothers
who were on welfare co get jobs.
Under the federal progr:1m, states
offer subsidies· 'on a sliding scale, with
th e aid phasing out as a family's income
grows. Parents can use the subsidies to

send their children ro a child care center or to pay a neighbor, friend or rebrive to care for them.
On Wednesday, Shalala urged Congress to approve a $817 million increase
in this program as lawmakers enter final
budget negotiations. That is a significant
increase but much more. modest than
the large-scale child care programs President Clinton proposed in 1998 and
1999.
She hoped the report would help

make Iter case.
In 1999.more than 14.7 nulhon children were eligible for cluld care subsidies using federal standards, but fewer
than 1.8 million children got the help,
HHS said in its annual report. That
c01npares with just over 1.5 million in
1998.

WASH INGTON (AP)- Battle scars from rhe war over Hillary

sa id Wednesday.
In her first mterview with
reporters since arriving on Capitol Hill , the first lady also sa1d she
will cut back her national comnntmems, such as prodigious fund
raising, tO make ~e rving New
Yorkers her fmt priority.
Clinton made health care a
centerpiece of ber campaign and
said she will follow through on
her election promise to plug away
at the issue. despite her troubled
lnstory with it.
As first lady, she led an unsuccessful effort 111 1993 and 1994 to
overhaul the nation's health-care
financing system. Decractors
likened her swee ping plan to
socialized medicine, and the proposal's eventual downfall forced

advocai;y of policy in her husband's admJmstration.

"Health care still is one of my
priority concerns. I think it has to
be," Clinton said Wednesday.
She Clinton clearly has learned
from the disastrous reception her

received.
" I think you have to go at it in
a step-by-step way," Clinton said.
" It's doubtful that m an · evenly
divided Senate, for example, that
you could come up with any k.Jnd
of plan that would improve
access, affordability and quality
without there being a' lot. of
bipartisan support. And I'd like to
build on what's worked."
During th e campaign,
recommended tmportation of
cheaper prescription drugs from
Canada and a "patients' bill of

right to sue their health maintenance organizations. She also

and I didn't take a deep one
and he got on me," Friel said
after scoring 16 points, his
high at Virginia since he transferred from Notre Dame in
1998.
The Cavaliers, increasingly
impressing coach Pete Gillen
with their unselfish play, know
Friel can change a game
quickly.
"When he's in the game, we
really have to find a way to
find him," said Hand, the Cavaliers point guard and secondbest 3-point threat. "He's the
type of guy that can run off
three or four in a row."
Frid was 4-of-5 from
behind the arc, the first to start
a 9-0 run and the lasi two to
give Virginia a 67-45 \ead with
10:30 remaining.
" They're finding

CINCINNATI (AI') - With
jwt two starts, quarterback Scott
Mitchell caught the Cincinnati
Bengals' fancy and made them
rethink: their plans for Akili
Smith.
In a few weeks, Mitchell has to
decide whether he wants to stick
with a team that never sticks with
a quarterback for very long.
The free agent can look for a
chance to play on a better team . If
he continues to run the Bengals ·
ground-oriented offense efficiently, he'lllikely get a chance to
stay in Cincinnati and compete
for the starting job in training
camp.
All he'll say for now is there's a
1ot to consider when the seaso11
ends.
"I like to look at myself as •
solution and a guy that can be
counted on. a guy that can help
you win ," Mitchell said Wednesday.
The Ben gals (3- IU) haven't had
a winning season since 1990. One
of their biggest problems has been
their inabi1ity to '&gt;ettle on a 4uarterback.
They thought they 'd fixed · the
problem when they drafted Smith
last year. but his struggles through
the first 10 games led to a bench~
ing and yet another change in
plans.
General manager Mike Urown
wants to bring in another quarteroa.ck to compete with Smith
for the j ob next year. For now.
Brown is considering Mitchell.

Pitiful New Jersey drops ninth consecutive game
BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Whoever said things can't get much worse must not have spent ~oo
much time around .the New Jersey Nets. Things are already pretty bad,
and there's little relief in sight.
·
Falling behind by 17 points in the first quarter as they played without their starting backcourr, the Nets lost their ninth straight' game
Wednesday night, 109-87 to the Milwaukee Bucks.
" It dn't get any worse," Nets guard Lucious Harris said, ignoring the
fact that New Jersey 's next two games are against Phoenix and Dallas
- two of the top teams in the West.
The Nets' losing streak is the longest in the NBA this season and the
f~nchise's longest since closing last season with 11 straight defeats. ·
~ Stephan Marbury, the NBA's fifth-leading scorer, sat out his second
ma~ght game with a sore ankle, but hopes to play Fnday. Kendall Gill ,
with tt•ndimtis in his nght knee. is doubtful for the Nets ' next game.
New Jersey already IS without starters Keah Van Horn (fractured leg)
.md Kerr\' Kittles (knee surgery).
.
" We have some great p,layers who aren't pbying with us right now,
::.o whe n they g.e t back it's something to look forward tu,'' Net~ forward
Aaron Wtlhams sa i~. " As far as losing, there 's nothing positive about
th.tt. It's up to us w stop it . Te.Hns aren't going to com t' in here fedmg
sorry for us."
Th e Bucks certamly didn't, ustng a ~ 7 -1 () nq1 latL" in the first quarter to open a 17-point lead.

14 Jf,SISts :
The Bucks won for the fifth time in six games after a 3- 9 start.
" We go t otT to a 1-6 start and everybody panicked , but we're not

even 25 games into the season yet," Cassell said. "There's still a lot of
basketball left and everything will work itself out." ·

Golden State's Antawn Jamison and Kobe Bryant of the Lakers each
scored 51 points - the first time two players had 50 or more 111 the

with 43 last week against San Antonio, was 13-of-13 on free throws.

Pitiful New Jersey drops ninth consecutive game
BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Whoever said things can't get much worse must not have spent ~oo
much time around .the New Jersey Nets. Things are already pretty bad,
and there's little relief in sight.
·
Falling behind by 17 points in the first quarter as they played without their starting backcourr, the Nets lost their ninth straight' game
Wednesday night, 109-87 to the Milwaukee Bucks.
" It dn't get any worse," Nets guard Lucious Harris said, ignoring the
fact that New Jersey 's next two games are against Phoenix and Dallas
- two of the top teams in the West.
The Nets' losing streak is the longest in the NBA this season and the
f~nchise's longest since closing last season with 11 straight defeats. ·
~ Stephan Marbury, the NBA's fifth-leading scorer, sat out his second
ma~ght game with a sore ankle, but hopes to play Fnday. Kendall Gill ,
with tt•ndimtis in his nght knee. is doubtful for the Nets ' next game.
New Jersey already IS without starters Keah Van Horn (fractured leg)
.md Kerr\' Kittles (knee surgery).
.
" We have some great p,layers who aren't pbying with us right now,
::.o whe n they g.e t back it's something to look forward tu,'' Net~ forward
Aaron Wtlhams sa i~. " As far as losing, there 's nothing positive about
th.tt. It's up to us w stop it . Te.Hns aren't going to com t' in here fedmg
sorry for us."
Th e Bucks certamly didn't, ustng a ~ 7 -1 () nq1 latL" in the first quarter to open a 17-point lead.
Ray Allen scored 30 points, including five stmght midway through
the fourth quarter after a comfo rtable lead dwindled to i :?., while
Glenn Robinson added '27 points a~id Sam Casse ll had 13 points and
14 Jf,SISts :
The Bucks won for the fifth time in six games after a 3- 9 start.
" We go t otT to a 1-6 start and everybody panicked , but we're not

even 25 games into the season yet," Cassell said. "There's still a lot of
basketball left and everything will work itself out." ·

Golden State's Antawn Jamison and Kobe Bryant of the Lakers each
scored 51 points - the first time two players had 50 or more 111 the

Pamela and Matthew Granovetter put out six i ssues of
Bridge Today annually from their
house in Netanya. Israel. Yet the
content, because they started the
magazine in Jamaica, N.Y., has a
distinctly American feel.
Peter Kichline described this
deal from a club duplicate . How
should South plan. the play in six
spades after West has led the club
king?
Most Norths rebid three notrump . When East led the heart
10 , they survived, their eighl
becoming a stopper. But when
East led the hean five, the contract
f~iled. However. who wants to
end there? Following a two-ove rone response, a two-spade rebid
should be played as forcing. So,
South's three-spade jump guarantees an (almost) solid suit and sets
it as trumps. North's four clubs is
a co ntrol -bid (cue-bid).• show ing
the club ace and sla m intere st.
With the invaluable diamond
king, South Blackwoods into
slam .
Sollth sees 12 tricks via six
spades, five diamopds and one
club. Yet after winning with durilmy 's club ace and drawing
trumps, he must be careful with
the diamonds. As dummy has no
side entry left , he must sta11 with
th e diamond niue. If the sui t is
splitting 3-2, it doesn't matter. Bul
here il's a vital unblocking play.
( It might also work well when
West has jack-10 -fourth and stu pidly covers.) The nine to the ace
and tile 1hree back to the king
reveal the need tor a lmesse ol
dummy's eight on the third round.
Plus 980 was a cold top.
The magazine costs $29 per
annum. The Granovetters also
run e-mail courses and an online
new sletter. Full details are at
www .bridgetoday .com.

Pamela and Matthew Granovetter put out six i ssues of
Bridge Today annually from their
house in Netanya. Israel. Yet the
content, because they started the
magazine in Jamaica, N.Y., has a
distinctly American feel.
Peter Kichline described this
deal from a club duplicate . How
should South plan. the play in six
spades after West has led the club
king?
Most Norths rebid three notrump . When East led the heart
10 , they survived, their eighl
becoming a stopper. But when
East led the hean five, the contract
f~iled. However. who wants to
end there? Following a two-ove rone response, a two-spade rebid
should be played as forcing. So,
South's three-spade jump guarantees an (almost) solid suit and sets
it as trumps. North's four clubs is
a co ntrol -bid (cue-bid).• show ing
the club ace and sla m intere st.
With the invaluable diamond
king, South Blackwoods into
slam .
Sollth sees 12 tricks via six
spades, five diamopds and one
club. Yet after winning with durilmy 's club ace and drawing
trumps, he must be careful with
the diamonds. As dummy has no
side entry left , he must sta11 with
th e diamond niue. If the sui t is
splitting 3-2, it doesn't matter. Bul
here il's a vital unblocking play.
( It might also work well when
West has jack-10 -fourth and stu pidly covers.) The nine to the ace
and tile 1hree back to the king
reveal the need tor a lmesse ol
dummy's eight on the third round.
Plus 980 was a cold top.
The magazine costs $29 per
annum. The Granovetters also
run e-mail courses and an online
new sletter. Full details are at

Mitchell also has played for
MIJmi, Detroit and Baltimore

of effort and teamwork, of comradery and love for the game.
