EaiUer Monday, a Western diplomat, speaking on condition of anonymi· ty, said the rebels objected to several details of the agreement, including Russian participation in a NATO-led peacekeeping .force and the requirement that the guerrillas surrender weapons. The KLA has also been pressing for guarantees of a referendum on iridependence aft<t ihree years - a condition rejected by Yugoslavia as· well as the Untted States and maJ Or European powers. · The Serbs have-long refused to accept the deal because it calls for 28,000 NATO peacekeeping troops in Kosovo, a southern province of Yugoslavia's · dominant republic, Serbia.

Sunny High: 40a; Low:20a Meigs County's By JOHN McCARTHY Associated Press Writer COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)- Gov. Bob Taft invited lawmakers to support his pian to take all the money that . would wind up in a fund created for income tax reli~f and spend it on schools instead. Supporting the idea, however, was the last thing on some lawmakers' minds. Taft on Tuesday used his first State of the State speech to propose moving the money - at least $400 million - and using it for school construction and tech· · nology. The fund is whatever surplus is left over after 5 per· cent of state revenue is put in a " rainy day" fund the stale keeps for emergencies; such as an unforeseen economic downturn. Although it's earmarked for t!IX reduction, there is nothing to keep the state from spending money in the fund for other purposes before June 30, the end of the budget year. The rainy day fund is at about SI billion and Taft budget officials estimate the tax reduction .fund currently has about $400 million. Opposition surfaced as soon as the speech ended. House conservatives who created the fund defended it. ' . "The principle of the income tax reduction fund is that we don't write blank checks to government," said Rep. Jeff Jacobson, R-Vandalia. "I support spending $400 million on school facilities as he proposed, hut the principle should remain that we write a specific dollar figure and whatever's left still goes back to taxpayers."

Sholl - 1- Editorial voices Excerpts of recent editorials of statewide and national interest from Ohio newspapers: ·Not a record of neglect The (Findlay) Courier, March 5 As far as a judge down in Perry County is concerned, nothing has happened to provide more equitable funding for Ohio's school districts. . Here's some of what the General Assembly has done: Spending per student has been raised to $3,851 and will rise to $4,414 in four years. More than $1.6 billion has been set aside for school building repair and replacement. Special education and transportation subsidies have been increased. Tougher academic standards were established. This is not a record of neglect and inaction on the part of the General Assembly. True, more needs to be done to help SOI)le poor school districts, · but this shouldn't mean, as the judge would have it, that the state has failed completely and needs to start all over again. Why not improve on the improvements that have already been made? Anti-cruelty laws need tightening The (Zanesville) llmea Recorder, March 3 · There's an abundance of animals needing help at local humane societies across the state. Of course that's -because there is an incredible amount of abandoned and unwanted animals. Unfortunately, it~s also because there are more and more extreme abuse cases being uncovered and with that, higher bills to rehabiHtate' the animals. . State Rep. Pa!rick Tiberi, R-Columbus, recently introduced a bill that would force owners accused of animal cruelty to post "bond" for the care of their animals. Nine other states have similar laws. Statewic:le, acts of animal cruelty are misdemeanors. Ohio's animal anticruelty laws haven 't been tightened since they were instituted in 1875. We support Tiberi's proposal. Debt to society is paid The Lima News, March 5 · In some states, if you are convicted of a felony, you lose your right to vote -forever. There are 14 states in the union 'Yith such Draconian measures in the law . .books. Not all who have lost the right to vote have committed serious offenses. ·Many are merely first-time offenders who never served a day behind bars. There is no legitimate reason to prevent a convicted felon from voting . : after serving their sentence. In fact, in four states, felons are allowed to vote · from prison. .. When someone commits a felony and serves their prison sentence, their debt to society is paid. Further restricting their right to vote makes no sense. In fact, allowing an ex-convict to vote can be considered part of the process of reintegrating that person back into the folds of society. &._JIIteel p,... Writer WASIDNGTON (AP)- A nickname, says the proverb, is "the heaviest ·stone the devil can throw at a man." Some wound and leave scars. Some stick like burrs. Others fill away and are forgotten. American · presidents have attracted and endured nicknames ever since George Washington was called the "Sword of the Revolution," " Father of His Country," the "Sage of Mount Vernon" and, interestingly, "The Old Fox." President Ointon will probably never entirely shed "Slick. \Villie," a nickname draped on him. by an Arkansas newspaper writer years before he reached Washington. But " the Comeback Kid," the title Ointon awarded himself after finish ing a surprising second in the 1m New Hampshire primary, is likely to be equally enduring. It's a title Clinton retains- for his two presidential victories, his tiptoeing through the land mines of scandal and his acquittal in a Senate impeach· ment trial. "Clinton seemed plainly to be relishing the symbolism of the Comeback Kid coming back again," The Washington Post's John Harris observed last month as he described Clinton's post-impeachm~nt swing -through Nel" Hampshire. Presidential nicknames have been piling up for two centuries. Five presidents were called "accidental" or "his accidency," because they gained office either by the death of the president they served as vice president or through other less than usual circum· .stances. Many 'presidential nicknames were plainly sarcastic. When John Adams insisted that Congress call President Washington "His Highness," some senators, snickering behind their hands, dubbed Adams "His Rotundily" William Henry Harrison was a "Log Cabin candidate" before Abraham Lincoln but was also widely known as "Tippecanoe," after his 1811 victory on a battlefield of the Indian Wars. Many people thought of Martin Van Buren as sly and "foxy," "the Little Magician." But finally, to his political fees he was little Van, "the used-up man." Andrew Jackson was "Old Hickory" for the Comeback Kid tree so hard it resisted nails. Some Americans, try· ing to recycle the title, called James Polk "Yolini Hickory." ' zachary Taylor is still known as "Old Rough and Ready," .a reputation earned during the 1848 war with Mexico. Theodore' Roosevelt will always be a " Rough Rider," even though his cavalry regiment had no horses with them when they captured San Juan Hill. The president detested "Teddy," even though he had been called "Teedy" as a boy. Lincoln survived many nickname salvos: tyrant, dictator, destroyer of liberty, "Black not.bear to speak his name, Roosevelt was "that min in the White House." ' Dwight Eisenhower was "Ike" and President Truman was "Give 'em Hell Harry." Gerald R. Ford was just " Jerry" and John F. KcMedy was "Jack" or "JFK." But Jimmy Carter became the first president to insist on using the diminutive fonn' of his name at all times. He was "Jimmy" from back-lot barbecues to state dinners. "Slick Willie" by the way, has a somewhat shaky precedenl One of the more obscure nick, names th!(lwn at William McKinley, the century~s first P,resident, was "Wobbly Willie." > PA.. • ..

By ANDREW CARTER OVP Staff Writer ' It's on to the NAJA Division I National Tournament for the University of Rio Grande after the Redwomen battled back from as much as a I 0-point deficit to post an 83-78 victory over Saint Vincent College Tuesday night in Latrobe, Pa. The win assures Rio Grande a spot in its second national tournament in the past three seasons and its third trip to the Big Dance in the past . six seasons. After trailing by as many as nine · points in the first half, and despite committing 19 mrnovers, the Redwomen scraped their way to a 33-33 tie at the intermission. The Redwomen held the Lady Bearcats, the top seed in the AMC tournament, to just 34.3 percent from the field in the opening frame, while hitting 57.1 percent from the field. · Rio Grande kept pace by kno<;king down 4-of-5 triples in the first half. That offset an 8-for-14 performance by Saint Vincent at the foul line. The Redwomen hit only 5-of-9 free throws in the first period. "We didn 't play well in the first half," said Redwomen head coach David Smalley. "We stunk in a lot of areas, but we just kept plugging away. We knew all we had to do was just wear them down. They're not a very deep ball club." Saint Vincent (20-10) opened the second half with a 9-0 run and pushed its advantage to as many as I 0 points in the final period, building a 67-57 lead with four and a half minutes remaining. "Saint Vincent got in early trouble and we didn ' t take advantage of thai to start the second half," said Smalley. "They take that 9-0 run on us to start ihe second half and that was very frustrating , because we weren:t doing anything. We stood. We didn't penetrate. We allowed them to penetrate. They came out the aggressor and we were just sort of soft." Rio Grande stayed close on the scoreboard throughout the half, then exploded in the final four minutes, outscoring the Lady Bearcats 26-11 down the stretch: That included a 168 run in the closing 2:02. Rio Grande didn 't .take the lead until the I: 10 mark, only its second lead of the entire ball game. The Red women were perfect from the charity stripe in the second half, going 15-for-15. Additionally, Rio Grande committed just II turnovers in the second half. • "It was a great, great effort," said Smalley. "A great team effort and that's what il's all about." Senior Carrie Carson turned in her best performance of the past two weeks. leading Rio Grande with 21 points. She connected · on 4-of-8 three-pointers and was 5-for-10 from the field overall. Carson was perfect at the foul line, hitting 7-of-7 shots, including two crucial tosses with under two minutes to play. . "Carrie could hardly get up off the bench, she's having so many back problems," said Smalley. "But, boy, when she got into the flow of it, she hit some threes and did some nice things. She did a great job." Redwomen fans may remember that Carson was the heroine of the . .

At the top and bouom of the balling order, in the lineup and on the bench, Cincinnati should be fa,ster - and therefore better, say the dlub's architects. · :.

" The increase in speed helps, No. I; with range defensive ly, and No. 2, most importantly, by going from first to third on a single, scoring from first on a double, or scoring from second on a sin gle," Bowden said.

Stealing bases also should help the Reds put more runners into scoring position. Manager Jack McKeon has said that Cameron, the likely starter in center field , can steal as many as 40 to 50 bases .eve n if he hit s only .260. Reese had f.5 steals as a rookie in 1997, and Larkin routinely .steals that many when he 's healthy. · They should help Cincinnati improve on its 1998 total of 95 steals, which ranked ninth in the National League.

Jo~. Wolf, D.O. Oltlo Asso iate Professor of Fa ily Medicil}e Question: My husband and I are going to Mexico wllh some frie nds for a vacation. What are the current recommendations for treatment or preve ntion of traveler's diarrhea' Answer: "Traveler's diarrhea" is a common complaint Ofte n ll is brought about by nothmg more sintster than dietary indiscretions while away from home. These ep1sodes are usually bnef and need no treatment other than eating a better diet. Viral mfecllon can also cause diarrhea. For diarrhea due to either of these causes, use of Pepto Bismol or Immodium AD may reduce the discomfort. I recommend that you take th is type of product with you instead of counting on being able to fi nd Jt in an unfamili ar place. Di arrhea that lasts longer than a cw.:rrtlo day or so and is associated with fever or blood in the stool is ofte n the res ult of bacterial infectio n. Antibiotics are necessary for this problem. When one of my patients JS going to be traveling to an underdeveloped nauon, I usually se nd him or her with etther the medici ne ciprofloxaci n or norfloxacin. I give the traveler instrucuons to only take the drug if the symptoms of this more serious form of di arrhea develop. Ask your fami ly physic ian if he or she thinks taki ng these medicauons would be appropriate for you. The mos t important part ·of treating trave ler 's diarrhea is preve nt ing 1t in the first pl ace. Most of th e serious cases are a consequence of consummg co ntaminated foods or bev- e'r;ages. In other words, when you are sorrw place where the water is of questionable quality, don't drink it! That includes that little bit you may use t6 brush your teeth or that ice in an otherwise safe bottled drink. An apparently safe bottle of water may actua)ly be fi lled with untreated tap water. Therefore, when you are in a questionable area, it is better to drink carbonated beverages. The "fizz" tells you that the product hasn't been contaminated since it was processed. Coffee and tea are also safe if they are served hot, as opposed to a tepid drink that may be unsafe .. Fresh fr uits and vegeuibles are often a problem as wei,. You should personally peel them before they are eaten. If kitchen personnel do the peeling, they may rinse the produce in contaminated water before serving them · thereby maki ng them un safe. " Traveler's di arrhea is certainly a concern when traveling, particularly in equatori al and economically less developed countries. Unfortunately, it is only one of many significant risks associated with travel. There are f11any serious infecti ous diseases that are prevalent in other parts of the world.

The plan outlined Wednesday won 't be ready to introduce in the Legislature for anoth. er two weeks, Rep. Priscilla Mead of Upper Arlington said. But legislative leaders have said failure to produce a new law by July like· ly will doom the issue until at least 2001. Mead and Sen.

But Mead indicated she's watching · the. calendar. "There is pressure. We want to get it done by July I," Mead sa!d. The proposal was the· product of seven months of private meetings that seven law· makers held with about 25 representatives from the electric utilities, consumer and conimercia!

Among the plan's highlights: - Although it will be'pliased in over a fiveyear perlod beginning in 2001, consumers could begin choosing their supplier immediaiely. The transmission and delivery of electric power will remain regulated under the currently monopoly system. - Ohio's eigh! investor-owned utilities will each be given a transition period, ranging from March 31, 2003, 10 Dec. 31, 2004. During that period, consumers will pay a tax on electricity to help utilities recover their "stranded costs," ·debt from investments in nuclear power plants and other projects that is now passed on 'to ratepayers. The tax and transition period w~ld vary, depending hugely on the utility's debt. -: Change the tax structure to allow the utility CQmpanies to com,pete while keeping ·revenues for schools and local governments. Taxes on property would be assessed at the same rate as most businesses - 25 percent while taxes on generating and transmission ~uipment would be assessed at the current rate - 88 percent. - Thirty-seven percent of the new user !IX ·would go to a fund to be split at 70 percent for schools and 30 percent for I!JCBI government. - Residential customers would be a) lowed to band together to get power at a cheaper price and customers who refuse .to choose one would be assigned one. If that customer didn 'I choose by the end of the transition period, the cus· tomer would join others in a group whose ser· vice would be "auctioned" among the suppli· er5. ................, . - It gives the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio the power to certify suppliers and hold them accountable for the availability of power. Johnson said customer awareness is the key to the plan's success once it becomes law, He said that is especially irue of residential cusl!>niers, who pay the highest prices because they have the least leverage shopping on their own. e said he realized not everyone .would be y with the plan, but it was the best the p of lawmakers could do. · · "I believe it is a fair plan that fully com· pensates the utility a>lllpanies and their share· holders," Johnson said. Robert Snyder, Senior vice president of the Ohio Electric Utility Institute said he would not comment on the bulk of the plan until his staff had studied it. However, he noted that the 21-page report Johnson and Mead outlined contained the term "PUCO" 80 times. He said the plan defeated the stated puf]Xl6C of its backers. . "If you're going into a fiee market in deregulation that's what you should do. We don't know why they're going in that direc· tion," he said, ~' ~. '', ' • •.
