It is hoped the project will ulti· mately help prevent riverbank ero· sion;.Hill noted. Many consider the Ohio River more popular now than ever before with recreational boaters and anglers. The project should help the village capitalize on that popularity. As it is now, the river at Racine Is underutilized 8s a recreational resource, Hill pointed out. "We have a nice park," he said. "One of the best assets is the river, but we can't use it" . ~an example, he rei;-' led an "Anything That Floats but,a Boat" race held several years agci. as part of the village's Fourth of July eel· ebration. "There was nowhere to,watch it from," he said. · :~ But don't expect ch•~i,es to t~e -~:» occur overnight. "The project will be done as time and money allows," Hill remarked, adding that the work will be done in phases. The first phase will be to taper the riverbank from the park down to the shelf. Then grass seed will l>e planted and park benches installed. Some trees will likely have to come out, Hill. noted·. The second phase will be to reinforce the riverbank with large stone and to ultimately install a walkway and steps down to the water's edge. Right now the work is being done on a shoestring budget There are no blueprints or cngi· neered studies for this project, just volunteers operating equipment from the seat of their pants. Some donations have been directed to the project including $1,000 from the Racine Area Community Organization, $1,000 from the village and $800 from the Star Mill Park Board. It is Hill's hope the donations and in· . kind work can be used to leverage grant funding to complete the more expensive parts of the. pro- · ject ~ reinforcing the river bank and extending the walking path. Volunteers have the use of a small bulldozer and have received fill dirt, although even more fill dirt is needed. Hill said others wanting to donate toward the project are encouraged to call the mayors office at 949-2296 to make arrangements. Other plans involving the river are underway including state plans to install a boat launching ramp on · property it acquired south of the park. Hill cautions park patrons not to expect dramatit change. "Don't expect miracles, it'll take a while," he said. .,1, . +' Pomero, 1ets in the holida':·J pirit with downtown deeoratfons SPECIAL FINANCING $1 0 DOWN , $1 0 > By JIM FREEMAN Times-Sentinel Staff RACINE - Although located along the Ohio River, the village of Racine has largely ignored the .body of water that forms its west· ern boundary.

In recent years, the park has established itself as a center of community life, but none of the : evenis held there involve the Ohio ·River - literally just a stone's throw away.

Wetherholl gave 25 years of his life to helping area residents help themselves through their studies at the University of Rio Grande/Rio Grande Community College. The longtime Gallipolis resident and businessman served as a Rio Grande Community College trustee from the time RGCC was founded in 1972 until he died in May 1997. His impact on the college and the region was remembered in a special memorial at Rio Grande. The memorial is a new painting of many of the historic and important buildings on the Rio Grande campus. The painting was completed by Mason County, W.Va .. artist Maxine Kinnaird, who previously held two similar montage-style paintings of · G II bUt'ld'mg m a ipolis.

During a pre-trial hearing before Shelby County Common Pleas Court Judge John Schmitt, defense attorney Kort Gatterdam said the "ovcrwhclnting amount" of publicity will make it impossible to find impartial jurors the county for the trial of Lawrence Michael Hensley. Gancrdam presented as evidence television and radio tapes on the s~oot­ in gs that were aired in Sidney, about 40 miles north of Dayton . He also submitted 18 photos of posters and fliers with pictures of the victims' that appeared in businesses around the city. "You"re asking them to take out the emotions· in this case," Gatterdam said of prospective jurors. " You're asking the impossible of these people." Hensley, 30, of Sidney, is accused of killing neighbor Sherry Kimbler, 16; her cousin Tosha Barrett, 16; and their friend Amy Mikesell . 14; at his 1\ome July 8'. Authorities say Hens.ley then drove to the home of Bible study teacher Breu Wildennulh , 37, and shot and killed him. Five days later, authorities say, Hensley wounded a motorist, fired a shot at the home of another Bible study teacher and took three hostages at a fiJI . ing station be fore surrendering. Gaucrdam said the deaths result ed in community vigils, prayer sessions at the accused of thi s crime. " and · MEMORIAL TO A TRUSTEE- A painting created in honor of the late Manning E.

In New York, as in many of the nation's large cities, more .than half of the cab drivers are immigrants, and discrimination may not be the issue so much as experience. Taxi drivers account for I 0 percent of all victims ol JOb-related homicide, while they represent only I percent of the nation·~ work force.

For example , as New York cracked dow n , on taxicab drivers who refuse service to ce nam areas or people, two cab drivers were robbed and murdered in crime -ridden neighharhoods of Washington. D.C.

We learned that in the Washington area. while only a dozen dri vers have been killed in the last several years, every cabbie we talked to has been robbed at least once. One man, Nadir, an immigrant from the Middle East, has been driving for 10 years. In that time he has been robbed three times, all by black assailants. In one encounter he picked up two well-dressed black men and a woman in the Chinatown area. They stabbed him repeatedly in his neck until he handed over the $300 he had on him . Now Nadir is more selecttve of the fares he picks up late at night and concedes somettmes II just comes d?wn to appearance. : : It IS a colhston between ducnml· nation and personal safety, and the answer may be bullet-proof shields sepa~ating drivers and passeng~rs.

Civil rights case earns national attention with protecting their trademarks By ANDREW WELSH-HUGGINS · Associated Press Writer COLUMBUS - There's more than one struggle connected to the . Mtch1gan-Oh1o State football game. An Ohio State administrator says he's alw.~ys busy thiS t1me of year trying to round up unlicensed souvenirs, , . The bottom hne Wt'.h any valuable or popular trademark is you are . subJeCt to counterfeiting, .. said Rick Van Brimmer of Ohio State Uniliersity 's Trademark & Licensing Services. . "If it's so mething people want. someone will fmd a way to produce it Without a hcense, because there's money to be made," he said. "Whether · it's tractor part; or OSU T-shirts, people will counterfeit it." Van Brimmer said the prelude to Saturday's game has been quieter than years past, although investi gative activities haven't slowed. . ·~we believe it 's because we stepped up our enforcement and had some h1gh prof1le cases in the media," Van Brimmer said. "The fact this is not for a Rose Bowl . or a game that doesn't have a national championship on the line- you probably can make an argument that may have something to do with it. " • The unranked Buckeyes (6·5 , 3-4 Big Ten) must beat No. 10 Michigan (8-2, 5-2) just to be eligible for a bowl bid. Before last year's M1ch1gan game, Ohio State nabbed a vendor selling off-color T-shirts. a case Van Brimmer believes caught the attention of other counterfeiters. . "He said Ohio State makes about $3 million in ann'ual royalties on licensed merchandise sales of $60 million. · Private investigators with Collegiate Licensing Co. of Atlanta have seized more than $125 million in fake merchandise since a nationwide crackdown began seven years ago, said Michael Drucker, the company's associate counsel. .. Th at includes 2,500 item s seized at last March's Final Four basketball .tournament in St. Petersburg. Fla .. and 7.500 items seized at the Fiesw Bowl in Tempe. Ariz. , last January, where Tennessee beat Florida Stale 23-16 for the national championship. "I can't tell you the problem will ever go away, " Drucker said. " We understand it 's a very protitable business to be in , albeit an .illegal business to be in. " Jim Smiley, deput y director of the University of Michigan 's Depart' , ~ • ment of Public Safety, said Michigan has a zero tolerance for bootleg item s : - sold on campus. · "We don't want our name or label on an inferior product- an extra ~ large T-shirt that you wash once. the block-letter M falls off and it shri~k s to a small," said Smiley. Smiley acknowledged that despite invesiigators' best efforts, many counterfeiters flourish by setting up shop off campus, Both Ohio State and Michigan use teams of undercover officers to bust counterfeiters. Neither Smiley nor Van Brimmer would say how many. The hunt for unlicensed Ohio State-Michigan merchandise will be a priority in Ann Arbor Saturday. Smiley said, although not the highest. "We're going to jam I I \.000-some people in there," Smiley said of Michigan Stadium. "We've got other issues to contend with."

Bomb threat disrupts ceremony COLUMBUS (AP) - A bomb threat interrupted a police graduation ceremony. . About 200 people, including ' _members of the IOOth recruiting class, evacuated the World Harvest CJlurch on Friday after police received a call saying the bomb would go off in I0 minutes. No bomb was found, so the ceremony continued in the parking lot. The call, received while Chief James Jackson was addressing recruits, appeared to be an effort to disrupt the ceremony, said Sgt. Earl . · Smith. · Jackson was told of the threat and . - .quipped that crime never stops. At that point, recruits, family members . · and friends left the building and reassembled on the parking lot to . 'resume the C~!:rnony. "Police officers are very adaptable creatures," Smith said. "We adapt to the situations; we roll with the punches." No charges have been tiled. The bomb threat did not dampen the festivities, sll/d Officer Kevin Richards, one of fhe 34 people who completed the training . The class started with an enrollment of 56. "It was kind of disappointing," he said. "But it 's a nice day to be outside." Cmdr. Larry Rod, who heads the police academy, also looked on the · positive side, "They'll never forget this," he said .."lt's a story they can tell to their grandchildren."

"I hate that it had to come to a point where I had to be here," Dossie told reporters after the Friday's verdict. "That's a night I'll never get out of my mind." He could get up to six years in prison when he is sentenced on Dec. 17 by Summit County Common Pleas Judge John Adams. He is free on bond until then. . "The jury did the exactly the right thmg based on the evidence," said Kirk Migdal, Dossie's altorney. "They put themselves where he was on that night."

Earlier Friday in Istanbul, 1 urkey, where he attended the closing sess1on of a 54-nation European summit, Clinton told reporters, " If people want Ia protest they ought to have a chance to do lt." Clinton had been scheduled to ~pend two days in Athens, but the vistl was shortened by one day and delayed because of concerns that the Greek government would not contain the protests. From Athens, Clinton was flew later Saturday to Florence, Italy, then stopped in Bulgaria and Kosovo before returning home Wednesday. Most of the violence Friday was carried out by a few hundred self-proclaimed anarchists. Other anti-American sentiment revolves around suspicion that the United States favors Greece's historic rival, Turkey. One of the central objectives of Clinton's trip to Europe, which began last Sunday in Turkey, is to push for reconciliation between Greece and Turkey, which have many strong disputes, including resource claims in the Aegean and control of the island of Cyprus. At the state dinner, Stephanopoulos staked oul a tough line on Cyprus. "We face no problems other than those created by the aggressive poliCies of Turkey," he said. He called Cyprus "a problem which was created by Turkey's military invasion of'"' the island" in 1974- after a coup by supporters of a union with Greece. Stephanopoulos sa id 180,000 Greek Cypriots "are still refugees, · deprived of the right to live where they were born and denied access to their property and wealth." He said he fears Greece will be called upon to make all the concessions wheri the two sides meet for talks next month in New York. In his remarks at the dinner, Clinton praised Greece's democratic traditions and long ties to Amenca. He called the nation the "economic powerhouse of the Balkans" and praised its political leadership. "There is no better way to begin the new millennium Ihan to see modern Greece help to complete the democratic revolution in Europe that ancient Greece began." Clinton said.

Give -tne a brea"k! , Top 25 college hoops... By SAM WILSON Times-Sentinel Correspondent Because I must submit my article before the Saturday deadline, I don't know how the Ohio State-Michigan game ended. Judging previous results. I beheve that team up north probably won. In fact, I would have given odds · this week and probably not received any takers. . It's been an off year for the B&cks; however, that's to be expected when you lose the taler.tthey have over the past few seasons. What would the NFL be hke wtthout John Cooper's program? There will probably be at least seven former Buckeyes in this year's Pro Bowl. . What I find irritating is the "dump Cooper" talk I read in The Columbus Drspatch. Here's a coach with one of the best records in the country being harassed for the failings of a young team. These fans claim to bleed' scarlet and grey whtle they call for Cooper to be run out of town on a rail. Give me a break! I want to ask these loyal fans who they would like to replace John? Do they really believe that Bobby Bowden will leave Florida State for Columbus? I'll be glad to trade them Bob Davies from Notre Dame. I'll even throw in the Leprechaun. What do you say? After the way they have treated Cooper over the years, do these fans believe a btg name coach will come to Columby:;? Cooper has a remarkable record. He has the best record in the Big Ten during .his tenure here. That means he's won more games over that period than "Joe Pa" at Penn State. So who's going to take the Buckeyes' helm knowing that a 10-2 season is considered unacceptable to Ohio State fans! These Cooper bashers' demands are outrageous. What lunacy! They better be care lui for what they WISh, because they may get what they want. Then at the ftrst stgn of trouble under the new coach, they can reminisce over the "good old days" when Cooper was coaching the Bucks. ' ,J • On their way to the final four last season, the basketball Buckeyes learned they could beat any team in the country. It was an important lesson for a young team This past Tuesday, (hey learned a few more lessons. First, any team in the country can beat them. Second, as a ranked team. they are hunted. The All-American back coun of Scoonic Penn and Michael Redd only scored one field goal in the second half as Notre Dame upset .the Bucks. There.are great expectations for Ohio State this season. Now they have until Nov. 29 for their next game. I wonder how many fans had already booked their flights and hotel rooms for the NIT finals in New York next weekend? There has been a slight change of plans. It may be the Irish who'll be making an unexpected trip to the Big Apple. Remember what coach Jim O'Brien said last year: "If you want to see your team in the final four every year. you better start cheering for Duke." The NBA rules changes have helped to bring greater scorjng , more running and increased excitement to the early pan of the season. I'll be gomg to Indy next month to see the Pacers and Jazz play. The new Field House has received rave reviews over this past month. It should be a great experience, except for the $79 ticket price. Did you notice the swagger in the way Browns fans walked around town this past week? Was there a better way to give Cleveland fans an early Christmas present than beating the Stcelers in Pittsburgh? Is it true that the phones at the .local crisis hotline are still ringing off the hook since the ball · broke the uprights? The only remaining question is how long will Pittsburgh go with Kardell Stewart? h's time to return him to wide receiver and get a real quarterback, He may have the tal~nt, but his attitude needs some adjustment. ·Sabres slay Atlanta 4-0; Ducks, .Flames, Islanders also win · . .'

Ill' 1-800-850·2438 • \ · .· . · -· By PAUL NEWBERRY A1LANTA (AP) - First, Atlanta los1 Patrik Stefan. Then, the Thrashers lost the game. Maxim Afinogenov scored two , goals and assisted on another as the Buffalo Sabres beat Atlanta 4-0 on Friday night, the first career shutout for rookie goalie Martin Biron. The Thrashers lost for the fifth time · in six games and watched Stefan crumple to the ice with anoth· er head injury. The NHL's No. I pick went. down with a minor concussion in the first period, following at least two con· cussions in the minor leagues. While his status was listed as day-to-day, the center will definitely miss tonight"s game in Buffalo. "We knew guys would take shots at him,"' coach Curt Fraser said. "We knew one of the days he would get caught. Hopefully. he will rebound from this very quickly." The team neurosurgeon diagnosed it as a ·grade one concussion - the l~ast serious head injury. But an pre· cautionary MRI exam was to be done today. "Thete's always concern for any player," .general manager Don Waddell said. "But I guess, to be honest, when Patrik is the player I'm a little more concerned when he gets a hi I to the head." Stefan was knocked down near the Buffalo blue line when he tried to slip by defenseman Richard ' Smehlik, appearing to take a forearm to the jaw. The teen-ager, clearly dazed, was helped to the locker room with 8:20 left in the first period. ; Waddell believes the concussion was tbe culmination of two blows. On his previous shift, Stefan was s~ating along the boards near center ice with his head down when he took a: severe blow by Jay McKee. Stefan'~ head snapped back before he fell to the ice, but he was able to r~main in the game. . ' 1 Fraser and Waddell said both hits appeared to be clean, legal blows. . A . week' '·into the . season, thQ eltpansion Thrashers tied Buffalo S.;S q)ld knocked out Dominik Has~k dJiring the high-scoring game. With Hasek on the injured list, Biron and the Sal:ires looked more like the team and hosl Connecticut cruised in the first meeting between the schools in 19 years. El-Amin's basket seven seconds into the game put the Huskies (2-1) ahead to stay. The junior point guard finished two points shy of his career high. Vermont (0- 1) trailed 50·19 at halftime. No. 10 Arizona 84 New Mexko St. 60 Michael Wright dominated play inside with a career-high 24 points and 13 rebounds as host Arizona advanced to the semifinals of the Preseason NIT. · The Wildcats (2·0), who play Notre Dame next Wednesday night in New York's Madison Square Garden, broke open the rough contest· with runs of 17·5 and 14-0 in the socond half. Billy Keys scored 15 for New MeKico State (1·1 ). No. 11 Kansas 97, Fairfield 71 Kenny Gregory scored 19 points and four heralded newcomers made impressive debuts as Kansas beat vis· iting Fairfield. The Jayhawks won their 27th straight season opener. The sellout crowd of more than 16,000 saved its loudest cheers for freshmen Nick Collison, Drew Gooden and Kirk Hinrich, along with .Texas transfer Luke Axtell, a 6-10 guard.

Biron's teammates made things easier, limiting the Thrashers to 18 shots and only a handful of quality chances. Buffalo had 29 shots. "The team we were playing can tnake you look like that," said Fraser, whose own team was shu I out for the second time in 17 games. "They're very good defensively and tough with their skill and speed." The Sabres ~napped a three-game losing streak, taking control when Michael Peca and Afinogenov scored 21 seconds apart early in the second period against Scott Langkow, Atlanta's third-string goalie.

After overhauling their roster this opffseason, the Blazers (9- 1) are off to their best start since 1990-9 1. In Philadelphia, they displayed two of the most important traits of a championship contender. They built a 17-point lead with unse lfis hness and surprisi ng fluidity for a team that's been together only 10 games. 1'hen they thwarted Philadelphia's comeback with playoff- like poise. "They share the ball, they share time . They' re a real team," Sixers coach Larry Brown said . "! think they've got a focus like they 're going to sacrifice anything to wi n a cham· pionship ."

SPENCER OSBORNE Times-Sentinel Slaff CHESHIRE - River Valley 's varsity girls' basketball team has a new look and a new head coach in Torn Weaver. True, there will be some familiar faces on hand in seniors Jessica Griffith and Casee Justice and junior Cynthia Ward. But otherwise, there will be many who enter this season with limited varsity experience, 'if they have it. Experience isn't the only thing most of these Raiders will be lacking. The transfer of 6-foot-1 center Stephanie Hager (team-best 11.9 pts./game, 8.5 rebs./game and 12 blocked shots in 1998-99) to Gallia Academy toward the end ' of the 1998-99 school year left the Raiders with only three players standing at mer Kyger Creek head coach who succeeds David Moore - the latter is River Valley High School's assis· tan! principal - after Moore 's seven-year run as the Raiders' boss. Ward, the sister of Shawnee State sophomore eager Sarah Ward, is the only returning player among the top five scorers from the 1998-99 squad. She had a team.-high 77 assists, was second in steals with 38 and aver· aged 8.6 points per contest as one of the two returners to play in all of the Raiders' 20 games last season. Justice, one of five seniors on this year's team, was the other. Weaver, who has Ed Sayre returning as an assistant coach, will also have former Rio Gmnde player Jodi Rawlins on the staff. Rawlins will also be the J,Uiders' junior varsity coach. '" Nov. 27 .................. .... .. ................... ...... ...............

Do not sacrifice safety for cost. Select a step as thoughtfully as you would a tree stand. Legality, safety, portability, and ease of use are things to consider. Again, do not sacrifice safety for cost Use the very best step you can afford. COLUMBUS - Tree stands are more widely used "by hunters than ever before and in the past few years there has been an increase in tree stand related accidents. The Ohio Division of Wildlife would like to remind hunters of some safety tips when using a tree stand: · There are many selections of tree stands available on the market today. No bunter should ever use any tree stand without thoroughly inspecting it for defects, missing parts, or weaknesses. Be sure all bolts are tightened, and frayed ropes, straps, and worn chains are replaced before placing the stand in the tree. No hunter should ever attempt to clitnb a tree or hunt from a tree stand without using a climbing belt and a, safety belt, rope or harness. The safest is a harness. Practice first putting your tree stand on a tree while standing on tl;te ground. More falls occur while climbing, setting, removing, and descending, not just when hunting from the tree stand. Never carry your bow or gun while climbing. Use a haul line as long as needed to reach the ground from the stand.

" I think we need something to believe in today, " said Alice Bauer, a 57-year-old Naperville shop owner. " I needed this. ... I needed to sec that other people felt the same way about God and church that I do." Some came looking for old-fash· ioned miracles: others sought inspi ration .

Just ask the women who manage them. ·' Look at the total returns in the bond arena, and you'll find that late· ly, · the highest fixed-income total returns have come from the riskiest bond fund category: high-y ielding bonds. According to Wiesenberger/Th·omson Financial, the year-to-date total return for the average corporate high-yield fund through Oct. 31 was 5.52 percent. The second-Highest performing group was !he multi sector bonds; they were up on average 1.66 percent. In a nutshell, high-yield corporate bonds are more rewarding because their interest rat.es are typically per· centage points higher than those of high-quality and government bonds. But along with that higher interest rate comes more risk. Specifically, this risk centers on the ability of bond issuers to make timely principal and interest payments on their debt - in other words, see to it that their bond hold· ers get what they bargained for.

All it takes is a few bulbs, potting soil, a container and a few weeks of cool weather, and in some cases, a few more weeks of colder weather (25 to 35 degrees Fahrenheit). Children love to plant bulbs and watch how they grow, bloom and create a "new" replacement bulb. For beginners, start with potting up either an amaryllis bulb or several paperwhite narcissus bu.lbs in a container. The amaryllis bulb is large, between two and four inches in diameter, and you plant one bulb per pot. Place the bulb with the pointed end up and bury it deep enough in the pot so three-fourths of the bulb is below the so il line. The pot used shQuld be large enough so that one to tw& inches of high peat moss content soil surrounds the bulb's side and base. Water the planted bulb well · then sit it in a dark, wam1 area fortwo to three weeks so thai roots form and grow into the soil. Water spari ngly, check once or twice a week. Once a root system is established, take the potted bulb and place in a sunny: warm window (south or west facing). A flower bud should soon emerge from the bulb. You can control the height of the flower bud by keeping the bulb in a high light area, water only when soil is dry to the touch, keep temperatures between 65 and 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Most amaryllis bulbs will send up two flower stalks (14-18 inches) before it sends up foliage in an effort to gain strength to create a new replacement bulb. Paperwhite narcissus are normally planted 5, 7 or 10 bulbs per pot depending on the size of the container. Plant them so the pointed end is phiced in an upright position and is covered with a half inch of soil above the bulb. Paperwhites like a well-drained soil, so get potting soil that has vermiculite or perlite in it. Water the new planting evenly, then place it in a cool, dark room for two to three weeks. Bring the potted paperwhites out of the dark room and place the container into a warmer, well-lit room. Soon new shoots will appear and then flower stalks will emerge from the bulb. Like the amaryllis, keep air temperatures near 65-68 degrees to keep plants 12-14 inches tall. · .. Leftover tulip, hyacint~. daffodil and crocus bulbs may be potted up into containers, but they ~ted both a time to establish a root system and then 8-14 weeks of cold weather near freezing to develop flower buds.

CINCINNATI (AP)- Cincinnati Bell Telephone Co., which has seen competitors move into its local phone service area, is now asking for the right to compete elsewhere in Ohio. The company's management said Friday it has asked the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio to waive guidelines that management said has limited Cincinnati Bell's ability to provide local phone services in oth· er parts of Ohio. Spokesmen for Ameritech and GTE, the two biggest providers of local telephone service in the state, said their companies would meet competition for Cincinnati Bell in the already competitive market. "Welcome to the market," Ameritech spokesman Dave Pacholczyk said Friday. Ameritech is Ohio's biggest provider with 2.5 million access lines for local phone service. Under the existing PUCO guideCincinnati Bell said it would be 'req1qinod to create a separate company. with different employees to · expand its service area, driving up its .costs and preventing it from offering 'compe,titive rates. · · Cincinnati Bell said that creating ltseparate company would prohibit it from using its existing resources to compete in other parts of the state. ~se include centralized repair and mlrintenance functions, networking m .nitoring calJabilities and business office and sales ~ersonnel. By MARK E. SMITH GALLIPOLIS - Today, retire· ment seems to be on many people's minds, young and old illike. Men and women who today are 65 can expect to live to the age of 82. With continuing advances in science and medicine, we can expect even longer life spans in the future. As you begin to think about retirement, a number of questions should come to mind: When should I start to plan for retirement? How much will I need to live comfonably? What will be available from Social Security? These concerns are genuine and need to be addressed. In this article I will answer these questions and in(J'O· duce you to a program that can get you started on your retirement plan· ning. You should begin planning for your retirement early. However, many of us tend to put this otT until we re.~ch our 50s and 60s and then think it is too late to begin. It is never too late or too early to begin plan· ning for retirement. If you begin plan· ning later rather than sooner, you sim· ply have a shorter time frame and will need to set aside a larger amount of money each yearto meet your goals. Conversely, if you begin at an earlier age. you yearly savings can be decreased. Generally, it is estimated that you wi II need between 70 percent to 80 percent of your current annual earned income to maintain your lifestyle approximately $560,000 assuming an interest rate of 8 percent.

One small bacteri~m. Escherichia coli, orE-coli, is forcing us to rethink and change many of the ways we enjoy, handle and think about our food supply. During the last two weeks · of August this year, the pathogen was at the root of one of the largest food recalls in history. And lasl week the U.S. Department of Agriculture announced that one out of two beef carcasses slaughtered in this country tests positive forE-coli. E-coli produce a shigella-like lox· in that's highly infectious. It attaches itself to the intestinal wall of its vic· tims and releases a toxin that causes severe abdominal cramps, bloody diarrhea and vomiting that lasts a week or longer. In small children and the elderly, it can progress to kidney failure. First reponed in 1982, most out· breaks of illnes~ from E-coli have been traced to undercooked ground beef, raw milk, unpasteurized apple juice and contaminated water. As in one case in Washington State, the disease can be passed between children through poor hygiene and diapering practices. While there are number of dif· ·rerent bacteria that lind their way into food and cause illness, the character· istics that ,make this particular pathogen more significant than oth· er pathogens are its low infectious dose (it only takes .a few to make you sick). its unusual acid and cold tolerances (refrigeration doesn't stop it from growing) and its potential for severe consequences among all age groups. Unlike many food-borne pathogens which need to number in the thousands before they cause problems for humans; less than I0 E-coli cells have been known to cause food-borne illnesses in people. While other pathogens wilt and die, E-coli a has been.known to survive for weeks to months on dried jerky and in such acidic foods as fermented sausage and apple cider. What this means in practical terms is thaf'E-coli inust be destroyed during cooking or processing to insure safety in susceptible persons. Current lethal steps at the processing level include heat pasteurization for milk and juices, and irradiation for meat (if approved) and fresh fruit and vegetables. At the packing plant, the use of pressurized steam to briefly bring the surfaces of Pamida opens four new stores POMEROY - Pamida has announced the opening of four new stores, bringing the total number of Pamida locations to 59. The company, which : recorded sales of $672 million in the most recent fiscal year, is a subsidiary of ShopKo Stores, Inc., and operates discount stores in rural markets in IS · . Midwestern states, including Pomeroy. · The four newest stores are located in Monticello, Ill., Bloomfield, Ind., Loogootee, Ind., and Petersburg, Ind. \n late October, the company opened new stores in Rockville, Ind., Sidney, Neb., and Munising, Mich. Approximately 92 percent of Pamida stores operate in markets with trade populations of less than 20,000. . When Shopi<o acquired Pam ida earlier this year, ShopKo identified more than 500 small rural markets that could support a Pamida store. Those markets are too small for ShopKo's upscale discount format, the company said, : but appropriate markets for Pamida's concept. · "The Pijmida retail strategy of convenience is a natural fit for these rural markets," a ShopKo news release stated. .

The bill did cut 0.38 percent of spending, but from agency budgets as approved for the 2000 fiscal year - when spending is up more than $30 billion from 1999 levels. ., So there was no cut in spending as most people would characlerize a cut.

The overall crime figure declined by only 5 perceni, 4 percenl and 3 percent in lhe preceding three first-halfyear reports. This year, among other violenl crimes, robbery dropped 10 percent; rape, 8 percent; and aggravated assault, 7 percent. In other property crime, larceny-theft declined 8 percent.
