He was a wonderful guy.’ – Former Sheriff TONY CRAVER DA Vroman dies By BEN BROWN The Daily Journal District Attorney Norman Vroman died Thursday afternoon at a Santa Rosa hospital of complications due to a heart attack. The 69-year-old Vroman was rushed to Sutter Valley Memorial Hospital by helicopter Tuesday morning, after suffering a heart attack at his home. His condition was described as critical by hospital staff on Tuesday when he was admitted to the intensive care unit, where he died at 12:30 p.m. Thursday. Assistant District Attorney Keith Faulder said Tuesday that he would be taking over the duties of district attorney in the interim. At the courthouse, the business of the court continued Thursday afternoon, although a sign on the door of the District Attorney’s Office stated that the office was closed Thursday and would reopen during normal hours Friday. By BEN BROWN The Daily Journal Starting next week, the Ukiah Police Department will be using a new tool in its effort to recruit qualified applicants onto the force: television. “The ultimate idea is to get people talking about it and considering a career in law enforcement,” said UPD Capt. Chris Dewey. The commercial will air on five cable stations during a two-week period. The commercial was filmed using UPD officers and produced by Ukiah resident Kirk Fuller of Fuller Digital Media, at a total cost of $200.

Flags at the courthouse, as well as other government offices in Ukiah, were at half-staff Thursday afternoon in honor of Vroman. Assistant District Attorney Keith Faulder has been in charge of the DA’s Office since Tuesday, and issued a statement Thursday afternoon, thanking “the entire community of Mendocino County for their outpouring of love and support” for Vroman.

LOTTERY NUMBERS Fire break completed with BLM funding The Daily Journal The Mendocino County Fire Safe Council, working with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection and Anderson Valley Fire Department, recently completed a 2.5mile firebreak in the hills above Anderson Valley. The Little Mill Creek Sheltered Fuel Break project removed brush, small trees and other vegetative fuels in a strip approximately 100 feet wide along a ridge road between Nash Mill Road and the Holmes Ranch subdivision near Philo. The removal of this vegetation adjacent to the ridge road will allow for considerably safer access for fire crews and give them a defensible position from which to fight fires threatening the Anderson Valley from the adjacent timberland and vice versa, said Julie Rogers, Fire Safe Council coordinator. The project, which had been discussed for seven years, was finally brought to fruition through a $35,000 grant from the Bureau of Land Management. The Mendocino County Fire Safe Council applied for the grant in 2004 and began work on the project in March of 2005. The final clearing was done in July of this year. Anderson Valley Fire Chief Colin Wilson expressed his gratitude to all the cooperating agencies that made the project successful. The vast majority of the work was done by CDF fire crews from the Parlin Fork Conservation Camp located on Highway 20 between Fort Bragg and Willits. The CDF also provided a large commercial chipper, which greatly increased productivity and allowed the crews to work through the summer period when pile burning was not an option. The Mendocino Redwood Company, an adjacent landowner, also participated in the project, according to Rogers. Since 2003, the California Fire Safe Council has administered a Grants Clearinghouse designed to streamline the grant application process, making it easier for applicants to connect with agencies providing funding for specific purposes. The fledgling Mendocino County Fire Safe Council, formed in January of 2004, utilized the Clearinghouse to obtain funding for the project, which was managed by the Anderson Valley Fire Department. “The project was a shining example of cooperation between federal, state and local government agencies working with private property owners, private nonprofit corporations and timber companies to achieve common goals and increase public safety,” Rogers said.

The world briefly Bush, GOP rebels agree on terms for the interrogation and trial of terror suspects WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House and rebellious Senate Republicans announced agreement Thursday on rules for the interrogation and trial of suspects in the war on terror. President Bush urged Congress to put it into law before adjourning for the midterm elections. “I’m pleased to say that this agreement preserves the single most potent tool we have in protecting America and foiling terrorist attacks,” the president said, shortly after administration officials and key lawmakers announced agreement following a week of high-profile intraparty disagreement. Sen. John McCain of Arizona, one of three GOP lawmakers who told Bush he couldn’t have the legislation the way he initially asked for it, said, “The agreement that we’ve entered into gives the president the tools he needs to continue to fight the war on terror and bring these evil people to justice.” “There’s no doubt that the integrity and letter and spirit of the Geneva Conventions have been preserved,” McCain said, referring to international agreements that cover the treatment of prisoners in wartime. Details of the agreement were sketchy. Pakistan leader says U.S. threatened bombings if he didn’t help in terror war WASHINGTON (AP) — President Pervez Musharraf of Pakistan says the United States threatened to bomb his country back to the Stone Age after the 9-11 attacks if he did not help America’s war on terror. Musharraf says the threat was delivered by Richard Armitage, then the deputy secretary of state, to Musharraf’s intelligence director, the Pakistani leader told CBS-TV’s 60 Minutes. “The intelligence director told me that (Armitage) said, ‘Be prepared to be bombed. Be prepared to go back to the Stone Age,”’ Musharraf said in the interview to be shown Sunday on the CBS television network. It was insulting, Musharraf said. “I think it was a very rude remark,” he told reporter Steve Kroft. But, Musharraf said he reacted responsibly. “One has to think and take actions in the interests of the nation and that is what I did,” he said. Pentagon rejects claim that intelligence unit’s information could have stopped 9/11 WASHINGTON (AP) — A Pentagon report rejects the idea that intelligence gathered by a secret military unit could have been used to stop the Sept. 11 hijackings. The Pentagon inspector general’s office said Thursday that a review of records from the unit, known as Able Danger, found no evidence it had identified ringleader Mohamed Atta or any other terrorist who participated in the 2001 attacks. The report was ordered following the assertion last year that the unit had identified four of the 19 hijackers in 2000. That claim was made by a former intelligence officer who worked on Able Danger, Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer, and by Rep. Curt Weldon, vice chairman of the House Armed Services and Homeland Security committees. Weldon, R-Pa., has said the unit used datamining to link Atta and three other hijackers to al-Qaida more than a year before the attacks. About 1,000 Pakistani clerics and scholars demand pope’s removal, warn of consequences LAHORE, Pakistan (AP) — About 1,000 Muslim clerics and religious scholars meeting Thursday in eastern Pakistan demanded the removal of Pope Benedict XVI for making Jeffrey Sugarman MD, Henry DeGroot, MD Michael Huie, MD, Heather Lowe PA-C Now open and taking new patients in Ukiah Our office is open on Fridays 8:30-5pm 1165 S.

ROAD REPORTS The following was See DAILY, Page A-11 the U.N. General Assembly. The nations seeking to halt Iran’s disputed nuclear activities are working out a new deadline for the Islamic republic and have authorized the European Union’s foreign policy chief to go anywhere at any time to meet Tehran’s top nuclear negotiator. Despite the possible new accommodations, diplomats said they’re not willing to wait much longer for Iran to respond more definitively to their package of incentives to stop uranium enrichment. Ahmadinejad said he believed negotiations on the issue were “on the right track.” Thai junta announces ban on political party meetings, establishment of new parties BANGKOK, Thailand (AP) — Thailand’s new ruling junta on Thursday announced a ban on meetings of political parties and barred the establishment of new parties. The announcement, made on all Thai television stations, said the action was taken to maintain peace and order. The bans are the latest moves by the junta to maintain control, even though no open opposition have surfaced to its Tuesday night takeover. Other moves include limitations on public meetings and restrictions on the media.

Benedict “should be removed from his position immediately for encouraging war and fanning hostility between various faiths” and “making insulting remarks” against Islam, said a joint statement issued by the clerics and scholars at the end of their one-day convention. The “pope, and all infidels, should know that no Muslim, under any circumstances, can tolerate an insult to the Prophet (Muhammad). ... If the West does not change its stance regarding Islam, it will face severe consequences,” it said. The meeting was organized by the radical Islamic group Jamaat al-Dawat, which runs schools, colleges and medical clinics. In April, Washington put the group on a list of terrorist organizations for its alleged links with militants fighting in the Indian part of Kashmir. The meeting came after the pope said Sunday he was “deeply sorry” about the reactions to his remarks and that they did not reflect his own opinions.

On Sept. 27, Ukiah’s own songstress, Paula Samonte, will be appearing at the Christopher Reeve Foundation fund raiser at the Beverly Hills Hilton. Headlining the show is renowned saxophonist Jesse Allen Cooper WITH Paula Samonte. Dustin Hoffman is only one notable star who will grace the event. Understandably excited, Paula will perform the song that was being sung when the popular “Superman” (1978) star met his wife, Dana: “The Music That Makes Me Dance” from the show, “Funny Girl.” Dana died March 6 of this year from lung cancer, and never smoked ˆ 18 months after her husband, Christopher, died. Instrumental in getting Paula noticed for this gig was John Azzaro, whose business is Guest Speakers, providing experienced and professional speakers for important events since 1989 -- and they are local: 463-1081 or [email protected] Needless to say, Paula is thinking about this opportunity morning, noon and night (in between all her other great appearances). “I’m doing all the things I ask my vocal students to do,” she said with a laugh. Paula will be appearing at the Himalayan Café in Ukiah with Jesse right after the Beverly Hills gig, then she appears on Sept. 30 at the Brewery, then later will perform at a “sweet little jazz club in Petaluma.” [email protected] The Ukiah Daily Journal Looking about By Carole Hester Reeve, was born Sept. 25, 1952. In May of 1995, it was during the cross-country portion of such an event in Culpeper, Virginia, that Reeve’s Thoroughbred, Eastern Express, balked at a rail jump, pitching his rider forward. Reeve’s hands were tangled in the horse’s bridle and he landed head first, fracturing the uppermost vertebrae in his spine. Reeve was instantly paralyzed from the neck down and unable to breathe. Prompt medical attention saved his life and delicate surgery stabilized the shattered C1-C2 vertebrae and literally reattached Reeve’s head to his spine. Upon regaining consciousness and realizing the gravity of his situation, Reeve wondered to his wife Dana if “maybe we should just let me go.” Whereupon Dana uttered the words that gave him the will to live: “But you’re still you and I love you.” Reeve narrated an EmmyAward-winning documentary for HBO called “Without Pity: A Film About Abilities” which sensitively told the stories of a half-dozen disabled people and also hosted a Canadian documentary about spinal cord injury called “The Toughest Break.” In partnership with philanthropist Joan Irvine Smith, he See LOOKING, Page A-5 Earthdance transforms Black Oak Ranch into an international peace hub By KATHRYN GLEASON Special for the Journal There are times in life when there are unquestionably too few minutes in the day. Such was the case this weekend, at the 10th anniversary of Earthdance, an internationally event with a local focus. We were welcomed warmly on the Black Oak Ranch in Laytonville by a sea of volunteers as we arrived and set up our campsite, and the tents were hardly erected before we were perusing the 40-page catalog of events, trying to decide which of the eight different main venues to attend at what hour. The choices were never easy. How can one choose, for example, between East Bay soul sensation Jennifer Johns on the main stage and a Friday night Faerie fest featuring live music, art, and plenty of faeries, or between a presentation by Spiritual Midwifery guru Ina May Gaskin, an Elders Council on Ancient and Modern Wisdom and the sweet reggae sounds of the sensational Luna Angel. Some of the Earthdance offerings were not to be missed, like the Saturday afternoon Prayer for Peace, which, as the focus of Earthdance events and festivals worldwide, synchronized over 320 locations in 60 countries, wrapping the globe in the simultaneous song, dance, and recitation of the following prayer: “We are one global family. All colors, all races, one world united. We dance for peace and the healing of our planet Earth. Peace for all nations. Peace for our communities. And peace within ourselves. As we join all dance floors across the world, let us connect heart to heart. Through our diversity we recognize Unity. Through our compassion we recognize Peace. Our love is the power to transform our world. Let us send it out. NOW..” The theme for 2006 was “Honoring the Wisdom of Indigenous and Modern Elders.” To that end the event featured the presence and wisdom of honored first nation elders joined by from several countries, including spiritual leaders from Mongolia, Columbia and Australia. Many of the elders made frequent stage appearances, and all gathered to address the crowd with blessings and prayers before the Above, participants at Earthdance take part in a Prayer for Peace, the main focus of the event, during which dancers around the world in over 320 locations and 60 countries simultaneously sing, dance, and pray for peace on earth.

Painted faces, traditional indigenous clothing, organic, locally produced and recycled fashion, handmade vegan food.Earthdance is a place for learning, for sharing, for inspiring. Participants readily shared their experiences of how Earthdance has changed their perspectives. “This is my third Earthdance, called a barker at the late night DubDome Sunday night. We’re all here to enjoy, and to learn from each other.” True to his learning, he then encouraged all gathered to introduce themselves to the people standing nearby. The lineup included several big name musicians, with 12-time Grammy-nominated India.Arie headlining, along with Ani DiFranco, Ozomatli, Mad Professor and Blackalicious. There’s plenty for music fans to grab on to and enjoy, and the production levels at this event are top notch. Although there were alternatives, it was difficult to imagine missing the headliners.

Please remember that all members are welcome and are urged to attend and participate in the meetings held on the second Wednesday of each month. The meetings are concluded by 8 p.m., even if someone is passionately in the middle of a sentence. We believe in punctual beginnings and endings! Melanie Lightbody, the County Librarian, reported that by late spring or early summer next year the multiple renovations of the Fort Bragg library will be completed. In the meantime the Veterans’ Hall across the street from the library will be used as the “library” during construction. Too, she delivered the good news that the County government will contribute many thousands more dollars than expected for the cost of bringing all Mendocino County libraries up to “disability standards.” It may be a shock to some but there has been considerable talk regarding the building of a new library here in Ukiah for some time. The Friends of the Library have agreed to underwrite the cost of a “needs assessment,” to be carried out by Melanie Lightbody and Dori Anderson, which amounts to a preliminary survey of the community’s needs for library services n the The Library File By Barbara Oldenburg 21st Century. And given the successful construction of a truly beautiful new library in Point Arena, as well as the Fort Bragg undertaking and the consideration which Covelo is giving to the construction of a library there, it seems as though revamping and building libraries is something which is in the air in this county. Dori Anderson, the Ukiah Head Librarian and now the recently appointed Assistant County Library director, requested and was granted $2,000 for beginning of a DVD collection which will eventually be available for lending to the public. It is expected that this sum will allow for the purchase of some 80 to 100 DVDs in both the fiction realm and in the “How To” format. She further requested and received $6,000 for new book purchases, with the clear understanding that more funds for the same purpose will be forthcoming when she so wishes. Lastly, she presented the Friends’ organization with a formal and exceptionally graceful Thank You card from Ina Gordon, the Children’s librarian, for the Friends financial support of the Children’s Summer Reading program. In other business the Friends agreed to buy a different refrigerator for the Ukiah Library staff room than the one which has existed therein since the 1970s, and they voted funds to dry clean the Children’s Room armchairs. Minor matters, perhaps, but such fiscal efforts as these help to stretch efficiently the strained formal budget of the library. By the time you read this the Book Sale, which raises funds for purposes such as those already mentioned, will be in full swing. It would be unfair not to mention the year-long efforts of Friends’ members who receive, sort, box, transport, store, transport yet again and eventually arrange for volunteer workers to sell the donated books which are the financial life’s blood of the Friends’ organization. Nancy Trumble, the Book Sale Chairperson, Louisa and Bing Gibson, Polly McKibbin and a host of other people too many to mention by name are much appreciated for their non-stop efforts. Lastly, it is worth noting again that the Quilt of the Month will continue to be found behind the reference desk in the library. Such artistry enhances the atmosphere of the library and reminds all of us of the incredible creativity of the people of this county. A-4 – FRIDAY, SEPT. 22, 2006 Editor: K.C.

Debbie Hunter Redwood Valley Let’s have one religion by words or prayer and supplication to a God of the cosmos. Nevertheless, ONE embraces the constructive ideas of all religions and philosophies though it disavows tenets based on “blind” faith, superstition, mysticism, and ignorance viewing them as unbeneficial to individuals and society alike. The concept of God is knowable. It is both internal and external - internal in the opportunity for creative choices that give purposeful meaning to life, external in scientific laws that forge the universe. Heaven and Hell are created by us on earth and exist in the mind as the result of choice and action. Positive rewards ultimately stem from actions founded on just choices. ONE accepts all scientific laws of the physical universe, but believes that there are also aphysical truths which coexist and are equally important. Aphysical truth postulates that selective positive choice and value give balance and equilibrium to life, and they often resonate in the tenets of philosophy and established religions. Aphysical truth confirms that the creative power of positive thought is more productive than its alternative. Aphysical rules of choice facilitate understanding the universe through the creative mind, and aphysical truths also reveal the godlike creative power that waits to be utilized within each person. Creativity in all its positive forms is the joy of our humanity as well as the solution to life’s difficulties. It emanates from the spirit of God and distinguishes us from other creatures. Therefore, the key to life is understanding and using our creativity. This requires positive choice and action rather than the passivity of prayer and supplication. This formula is the path to fulfillment and our greatest potential. Choice inspires and affects attitudes thereby promoting success, whereas failure to heed either physical or aphysical truths often results in catastrophe and pain. The religion of ONE believes positive choice, appropriate action, and resolution of dilemma based on just principles gives purpose to life. The endowment of human creativity is infinite and stimulates a full range of human emotion that displays our oneness with others and with nature. Some examples of positive choice are: love rather than hate, compassion rather than cruelty, inclusion rather than exclusion, ethical rather than unethical, caring rather than uncaring, generosity rather than selfishness, forgiveness rather than animosity, understanding rather than ignorance, honesty rather than dishonesty, justice rather than injustice, freedom rather than enslavement, humility rather than boastfulness, decency rather than impudence.... The selection of choices is designed to help people rather than hinder them. ONE believes that acting on positive To the Editor: Through the centuries established religions have failed mankind in their promise of peace on Earth and often have succumbed to politicalization as well as justification for death and destruction. Their faint protestations of man’s inhumanity to man call for more prayer and supplication. They have become burdened with bureaucracy and dogma and are unable to effect a world of change or promise. Instead, they are frequently the source of rancor and dissension amongst people ... even people of faith. The religion of ONE proposes to alter this status quo with a religion of dynamic change. These are the tenets of ONE, an inclusive unifying faith for the twenty-first century that recognizes mankind’s need for a responsive personal God: ONE acknowledges only one miracle ... the miracle of infinite creativity. Understanding and profiting from this power does not require the insight of theologians, philosophers, priest, clerics, and those who preach or espouse the word of President George Bush: The White God. ONE believes that God’s power is revealed to each of us through our actions, House, 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., Washingboth individual and collective, rather than ton, D.C. 20500; (202) 456-1111, FAX (202)456-2461.

Sherwood Goozee Potter Valley Not alone in effort To the Editor: I would like to thank Laura McCutcheon for her article on graffiti abatement. The article was accurate in describing my efforts, but I want to acknowledge the efforts of others in our community. The local schools do an excellent job of painting out graffiti as soon as it appears. So do most local businesses. The City, especially Parks Maintenance, does an excellent job. I know of other citizens who have assumed responsibility for particular areas. Graffiti (in contrast to murals that are done with permission) is a blight on our community and frequently carries a message that is racist, vulgar, violent, or promotes drug use. Gangs use graffiti as a method of marking territory, recruitment and intimidation. Left unpainted, the children of our community are constantly exposed to these negative messages. John McCowen Ukiah Waiting to see To the Editor: The letter exchange between Chas and Robin makes good press for me. Here’s why! The fact is, Israel has been a state since ’48. And the fact is, Jerusalem has been a bone of contention since Israel took it from Jordan in ’67. From my point of view the Israel/Arab conflict makes no sense apart from its Biblical history. “Christian Zionists” are not all lunatics. At least some of them have evaluated the last 3,000 years of Jewish history and concluded that the Diaspora and the return to “The Land” is the sign that human history as we have known it is near its end. To quote my mentor, “Jerusalem shall be trodden down by the nations until the ‘Time of the Nations’ is fulfilled.” (Luke 21:24) The above quote is an indisputable fact of history. And the future? Well, that’s a wait and see issue. I believe “Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on Earth ...”, will one day be a fact. Regarding the “rapture” and the “Antichrist” of Christian Zionism, I can only quote my British friend. “It’s altogether too slick!” Tom Hawksworth Hopland WHERE TO WRITE off at our office at 590 S.

But the annals of election fraud are full of allegations about Democrats, too, from the days of dead people voting in Chicago to the Tammany Hall era in New York City and more. So there's a lesson for Republicans in today's conspiracy theories: If the charges of tampering with computerized voting machines have even an iota of truth to them, any alleged GOP chicanery will surely soon be matched by Democrats. Which leads us to this year's elections in California. There was only one race in the state's primary election that had true national significance: The run to replace disgraced and ousted Republican Rep. Randy "Duke" Cunningham in San Diego County's 50th Congressional District. In that strongly Republican area, former Rep. Brian Bilbray narrowly defeated Democrat Francine Busby, and conspiracy theorists on the Democratic side have been outraged ever since. Their chief complaint: San Diego County voting registrar Mikel Haas sent large numbers of voting machines home with precinct election workers for days - even as much as one week - before the election. The machines, made by Diebold Election Systems, have proven vulnerable to corruption in independent tests and were certified for use in California only under stringent rules designed to counter potential problems. One of those rules governs chain of custody - careful records must be kept of who carries which machine where and when. No one who hasn't sworn an oath to uphold electoral integrity can take one home. Another rule requires tamper-evident seals be placed over memory card slots in the machines after cards are cleared of past information and set up for a new election. But that still doesn't guarantee integrity, say the critics. They maintain some San Diego County election workers kept machines in garages and broom closets prior to the primary and that no one can therefore be sure who might have gained access to some of them. And they contend there is no such thing as a tamperevident seal that can't be removed and later replaced by a skilled expert. But even if this happened, two election officials must still be present at pre-vote testing of each machine, according to Susan Lapsley, California Secretary of State Bruce McPherson's assistant in charge of elections. "We just don't think tampering is possible." Others disagree. The Black Box Voting organization, a chief critic of many electronic voting machines, the other day noted that "Because of the design of the Diebold TSx machine (of which thousands were used in the June California primary), a malicious bootloader can be installed at any time…Once a bootloader is contaminated, it can control the machine permanently." A bootloader is a device that loads software into a computer for use by its operating system. In short, the critics claim machines can be programmed to falsify votes, even to the extent of spewing "paper trails" that say one thing while a machine records completely different electronic results. Voters, they note, can review paper trails to make sure they match intended votes, but still can't read the electronic innards of a computer. The defense McPherson has set up against this possibility is a hand count of one percent of all precincts in the state, with paper trails counted at randomly selected precincts. Some statisticians say that's a large enough sample to ensure honesty; others maintain it's only one-tenth the sampling needed to be sure the overall count is not doctored. It's a dispute sure to rage on for years, as counties become more and more dependent on electronic voting machines. So far, only Democrats are complaining, because Republicans have won every close election where the disputed machines were used. But the moment a Democrat triumphs in an important, narrow contest, count on Republicans to bleat even louder. Which is why Black Box Voting has a point when it suggests that "In a sane world, these machines would be recalled." Can't do that, say most election officials, because a return to purely paper ballots and hand counting would mean election gridlock. And yet, returning to a system almost everyone trusts might just be worth all the trouble, even if it meant results were delayed a day or two, so long as it restored the basic trust so essential to American democracy.

Many of the elders made frequent stage appearances. Dance Continued from Page A-3 replace our culture of violence with a culture of non-violence,” said Ghandi. “Our relationships are often base upon self-interest, ‘What will I gain from this?’ but relationships should be based upon the four positive principles of respect, understanding, acceptance and appreciation.” “By building small communities that are living in peace and harmony, we can create peace in the world. Peace will have to come from the bottom up, not from the top down.” Ghandi said that people in foreign countries have a very distorted view of Americans, as all aid is distributed through government bureaucracies and all they learn about American culture is through “those stupid shows on television.” “That’s wrong, we do care about people throughout the world, but we need to show them, and the first step is building relationships ourselves with these people.” He suggested that American communities adopt foreign communities in need, and that change can and must happen one step at a time. “It took several centuries to mess up the world, we cannot change that overnight, but, if we never even get started we will never be able to make a change” Earthdance was a great venue to learn about community building. Friendly faces were omnipresent, but the people were beyond nice, they were, and are, involved. Yes, this is a volunteer-run festival, and yes, there are a myriad of social and environmental groups onsight spreading the word of their causes, but, it’s the people who gathered, young and old, that created these feelings of hope, of joy, of universal peace through their community based projects. The inspiration was infectious. The Earthdance festival itself practiced what they preached by declaring their dedication to “Repsychology” with a goal of 95 percent recycled waste, a phenomenal feat that many communities can learn from. All vendors were required to use biodegradable noodle-ware for plates, utensils and cups. This is the second year of this bio requirement, which came up as a suggestion three years ago in one of the Earthdance seminars on festivals and what could be done to improve them. Earthdance was founded by Chris Deckker ten years ago, with a vision and a dream “that music and dance have the power to unite our world in peace.” The Laytonville event was completely sold out, with 4500 colorful peace revelers traveling from near and far to learn co-mingle, and dance with others who truly believe that peace is possible. “It’s been fantastic,” said Deckker, who is known by attendees, workers and performers as always being respectful and kind, even in the heat of the moments of Murphy’s Law happenings, inevitable when uniting so many. “Mendocino County is a perfect place to hold the hub event of Earthdance International, because the area is already way ahead in promoting sustainable ethics. We feel like this event is perfectly in synch with this site.” founded the Reeve-Irvine Research Center in California and he created the Christopher Reeve Foundation in 1996 to raise research money and provide grants to local agencies which focus on quality of life for the disabled. Reeve’s star power, along with marketing for research dollars, were reasons why spinal cord injury research was given greater attention and more money allocated to the cause.

Gayle said, on the invitation, “No gifts, please” while Bruce encouraged, “Gifts of expensive wine will be accepted.” That’s kind of how these two operate. Ole’ Bruce is an old fly boy and last we heard still piloted his own small plane out and about. Gayle recently retired as vice principal of Pomolita Middle School.

Former Ukiahan Bev Reeves was recently honored by the Loveland Chamber of Commerce in their newsletter. Bev was married to Tom Reeves, former Publisher of the Ukiah Daily Journal in the mid-1980s. In 1979, Bev was among the first group of women journalists permitted to travel in Mainland China after the normalization treaty between the U.S. and China was signed. In the year that followed, Bev presented about 100 programs about that trip and has since made several trips to China, studying the language, culture and history. Tom retired in 1998. For two years the couple lived in Healdsburg where Bev owned two newspapers, which they sold in 200 to move back to Loveland. The two were only able to make one trip (Alaska) before Tom’s death in March, 2003, after 37 years of working together and enjoying a happy marriage and rearing six children (his, hers and theirs). Bev keeps busy and will soon make her fifth annual trip to Shiprock, New Mexico, to wok on the Navajo Reservation there, a project of several local churches. Pluggin’ along . . .

Hey, Doood. . . Ukihans Gerry and Monica Burney are now world travelers. This intrepid duo has romped over most of the US, but recently returned from a six week tour of nine countries. The underlying impetus to make the trip was Monica’s daughter’s wedding; Vanessa Cummings married a fellow with Italian heritage so strong that a Lucca, Italy wedding seemed just the thing to do. However, Vanessa met her fellow when he served as a guide for a Hat Creek fly fishing expedition. They happy couple plan to settle down in Hat Creek after finishing their European stint. Gerry might not present what he accomplished on this trip. After schlepping his bicycle around (that means, up and down stairs, in and out of underground metros, etc.), along with luggage for six weeks, Gerry competed in the St. Johann (in Tirol) world championship ride -- that’s 50 miles, folks. He was Number 1, he’ll proudly tell you. Well, his number was “one,” but he indeed performed outstandingly, placing 50 out of 80 in his category (remember -that’s 50 miles. How many in that age bracket could even complete the course!). Along part of the route were displayed flags from every country represented in the race. Gerry is currently serving as Chaplain in our county jail. The Burneys recently presented “An Evening In Europe” with photos, momentos and stories of their trip. For comparison, Monica brought back samples of toilet paper from each country (now THAT was interesting!). They are active members of Trinity Baptist Church, Ukiah. Cheer-i-o!

Alex McMillen shot a 48 and Shanel Sayad shot a 49 to help pace the Wildcats, and Merissa Kreeger and Theresa Ladao rounded out Ukiah’s scoring as each shot a 61.

Ukiah offense rolls in victory Waiting to exhale Wildcats take on Ursuline, ranked No. 1 in the U.S., today at 6 p.m. Loggers and Wildcats both looking for first win of the season By TONY ADAME The Daily Journal S tarting the season 0-2 wasn’t the way the Ukiah football team hoped to start the season, not by a longshot. But there’s something quite a bit worse than starting the season 0-2. That’s starting the season 0-3. “Last week we let it slip through our fingers,” said Ukiah head coach Chris Burris. “We know we’ve dug a hole for ourselves, but it’s not one we can get out of. If we can reel off two or three wins in a row we’re right back where we need to be.” Last week, Ukiah lost a heartbreaker on the road to Petaluma, falling 20-16 after a 46-yard touchdown run by T.J. Olson with 58 seconds left in the fourth quarter but the kebosh on a Ukiah comeback. The Wildcats travel to Eureka today to take on the Eureka Loggers, another team off to an 0-2 start. The Loggers, however, have had a decidedly different route to 02 than the Wildcats. Eureka has lost its first two games, to Shasta and Pleasant Valley, by a combined score of 94-0. Last week, in a 56-0 loss to Pleasant Valley, the Loggers failed to pick up a first down. “We’ve got lots of fresh faces out there and we’ve also had to play two pretty tough opponents to begin with,” said Eureka head coach Garret Montana. “It’s been a lot tougher than I thought. We’re learning every day.” Montana is Eureka’s firstyear head coach after filling the team’s defensive coordiSee EXHALE, Page A-8 File photo Ukiah running back Chad Bunting rushed for 59 yards on 19 carries in the Wildcats 20-16 loss to Petaluma last Friday. A’S 7, INDIANS 4 Shanel Sayad Junior shot a 49 in Ukiah’s win over Maria Carrillo Tuesday at Oakmont East. The Daily Journal The Ukiah girls soccer team defeated Elsie Allen, 5-0, in North Bay League action Wednesday. “We worked the ball much better in the second half,” said Ukiah head coach Matt Eiffert. “It helped us create lots of scoring chances.” Ukiah led 1-0 at halftime thanks to a Bernice Segura goal, and Sara Adams opened the scoring in the second half with a well-taken breakaway goal. Hillary Ruddick, who played goalie for the Wildcats in the first half, made the score 3-0 with a scoring strike from 15 yards out. Lauren Moses added another goal later in the half. According to Eiffert, Ukiah got strong defensive efforts out of backs Yesenia Diaz and Moses, and also from secondhalf goalie Sadie Dorsey. Fallon Hovland and Megan Lorenzi both turned in sterling performances in the win from their center-midfield spots. “We had many girls play outside midfield tonight,” Eiffert said. “They all looked good.” Things will get much tougher today for the Wildcats as they travel to face Ursuline, the No. 1 ranked prep girls soccer team in the nation, and a squad that boasts seven players already committed to play at NCAA Division I schools. J.V. girls post big win The Ukiah junior varsity girls soccer team put up big numbers in a 12-0 win over Elsie Allen Wednesday in Ukiah. “We moved positions a lot,” said J.V. coach Bob Mahaffey. “We were able to try some girls up front who normally don’t play there.” Leah Blue, Kylie Carr, Kendall Trimble, Adrianna Torres, Katelyn Dunn, Molly Lehre, and Kristina Le Brett all scored goals in the victory. PREP VOLLEYBALL A’s can clinch this weekend Vikings By JANIE McCAULEY The Associated Press OAKLAND — The Oakland Athletics are in position to clinch the AL West this weekend against their biggest division rival, and it appears they will have star right-hander Rich Harden healthy come October. Harden struck out seven in an impressive return from the disabled list and Jason Kendall hit a pair of two-run singles in Oakland’s 7-4 victory over the Cleveland Indians on Thursday. The first-place A’s reduced their magic number to four to win their first division title since 2003 and lead the idle Los Angeles Angels by seven games heading into the teams’ key three-game series starting Friday night. Oakland watched the Angels win the West by clinching in the Coliseum each of the past two years. Chad Gaudin (3-2) pitched 1 1-3 innings for the win, Marco Scutaro and Milton Bradley both singled in runs and Mark Ellis added a sacrifice fly for the A’s, who won for the seventh time in eight games. They moved 26 games over .500 (89-63) for the first time since Sept. 5, 2004, when they were 81-55. Harden pitched three strong innings — throwing 55 pitches — in his first start since June 4, his sixth outing of the year overall and only his second since April 26 because of two stints on the disabled list. He had four straight strikeouts during one stretch, striking out the last batter in the first and then the side in the second — fanning Jhonny Peralta, Joe Inglett and Andy Marte on pitches of 95 mph, 96 and 95 that inning. Harden allowed two hits and one run and walked a batter, then left for the clubhouse afterward to highfives and handshakes from his teammates.

FRIDAY, SEPT. 22, 2006 – A-7 HOUSTON — Lance Berkman hit a pair of tworun homers off Chris Carpenter and the Houston Astros beat the St. Louis Cardinals 6-5 Thursday night. Berkman tied a career high with his 42nd homer in the fifth, then set a new mark with a two-run drive into the Astros’ bullpen in the eighth. Carpenter (15-7) lost for the first time in nine starts. Dave Borkowski (2-2) pitched three scoreless innings in relief of Andy Pettitte and Dan Wheeler shut out the Cardinals in the ninth to earn his seventh save in nine chances. The Astros have won three of their last four. The defending NL champions came into the game 5 1/2 games behind Los Angeles and Philadelphia in the wild- card race. Marlins 5, Mets 2 NEW YORK (AP) — Pedro Martinez looked more comfortable in his latest playoff tuneup, but he was outpitched by Florida rookie Anibal Sanchez. Miguel Olivo and Hanley Ramirez each drove in two runs during a four-run fifth against Martinez, and Sanchez (9-3) worked seven strong innings to win for the fifth time in six decisions. Braves 6, Rockies 3 DENVER (AP) — John Smoltz scattered nine hits over seven innings and Andruw Jones hit a threerun homer to help the Braves beat the Rockies. The Braves announced earlier Thursday that they had picked up the team’s $8 million option for next season for Smoltz (14-9), who celebrated by limiting the Rockies to three runs. AL CAPSULES Ortiz breaks record in win The Associated Press BOSTON — David Ortiz broke a 68-year-old home run record to help end Minnesota’s three-hour stay in first place. Boston’s designated hitter slammed his 51st and 52nd homers of the season, passing Jimmie Foxx’s team record of 50 set in 1938, and the Red Sox sent Twins ace Johan Santana to his first loss since the All-Star break with a 6-0 win Thursday night. Minnesota entered the game with a .001 lead in the AL Central over Detroit, which lost an afternoon game at Baltimore 4-3. It was the first time the Twins had led the division this season after the Tigers were alone in the top spot since May 20. Minnesota dropped a half-game behind with the loss and leads the wild-card race by 5 1/2 games over the Chicago White Sox, who lost 9-0 to Seattle on Thursday night. Orioles 4, Tigers 3 BALTIMORE (AP) — Melvin Mora doubled in two runs in the eighth inning to help the Orioles rally for the win.

He walked off the mound with Baltimore trailing by a run, but ended up earning his first win since Aug. 18. Detroit led 3-0 after three innings. Fernando Rodney (7-4) allowed two runs and two hits in one inning.

SPORTS A-8 – FRIDAY, SEPT. 22, 2006 THE UKIAH DAILY JOURNAL Chronicle reporters sent to jail for up to 18 months Time running out for BREWERS 9, GIANTS 4 By MARCUS WOHLSEN The Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO — Two San Francisco Chronicle reporters were ordered jailed Thursday for a maximum of 18 months, pending an appeal, for refusing to testify about who leaked them secret grand jury testimony from Barry Bonds and other elite athletes. Lance Williams and Mark Fainaru-Wada published a series of articles and a book based partly on the leaked transcripts of the testimony of Bonds, Jason Giambi and others before a grand jury investigating the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative. Federal prosecutors asked U.S. District Judge Jeffrey White to send the reporters to prison for the full term of the grand jury investigating the leak, or until they agree to testify. Both sides agreed to stay the ruling pending an appeal to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. “The court is hopeful that perhaps they’ll reconsider their position when faced with Exhale Continued from Page A-6 nator role in 2004. “Being on the defense side of the ball, guiding an offense is new to me,” Montana said. “Our goals are along the lines of getting better each time we go out.” Ukiah’s offense has been Road Continued from Page A-6 pointed but I thought our girls played well and went toe-totoe with them.” Ukiah is now 0-2 on the season after an opening loss to undefeated Kelseyville, but has opened with two powerhouses. “I thought our defensive specialist, Leanne Moore, did a great job tonight,” Clinch Continued from Page gles to Marte and Kelly Shoppach, then the reigning AL Rookie of the Year finished for his 36th save in 44 chances. After a single loaded the bases, Street gave up a sacrifice fly to Jason Michaels to make it 7-4. the reality of incarceration,” White said Thursday. Williams and FainaruWada have said repeatedly they would go to jail rather than comply with the grand jury’s subpoena and reveal their source or sources. “I’m supposed to keep my promises when people help me and take me at their word,” Williams said in court. “I do despair for our country if we go very far down this road, because no one will talk to reporters.” The reporters agreed with the government that they are in contempt of court, but had sought a “nominal monetary fine” and other punishment “short of full-blown incarceration,” including house arrest and weekend jailing, according to court documents. In arguing for the stiff penalty, federal prosecutors cited the reporters’ own statements that they would go to jail before testifying. “Only imprisonment would be the type of sanction that’s going to get their attention,” said Assistant U.S. Attorney Douglas Miller. Authorities are seeking to prosecute whoever unlawfully leaked the transcripts, and told White the reporters are the only ones who know the identity of their sources. White ordered the two to testify on Aug. 15. The criminal conduct being investigated in the Bonds leak case includes possible perjury and obstruction of justice by government officials, defendants and their attorneys in the probe of BALCO, a Burlingame-based nutritional supplement company exposed as a steroid ring two years ago. All had access to the leaked documents, but have sworn they weren’t the source of the reporting by Williams and Fainaru-Wada. In August, White ruled his hands were tied by a 1972 Supreme Court precedent that said no one — journalists included — was above the law and may refuse to testify before a federal grand jury. led by sophomore quarterback Kyle Morris, who has completed 25-of-46 passes for 354 yards and two touchdowns in his first two games as a starter. Morris is also yet to throw an interception, and the Ukiah offense has yet to turn the ball over. “Kyle’s playing well right now and we’re not turning the ball over,” Burris said. “We had a good week of practice and besides a few injuries and some sicknesses, we’re ready to go.” Montana was impressed with Ukiah’s young quarterback on film. “Morris has played terrific so far,” Montana said. “He’s got a great grasp of the spread offense and he’s an exciting youngster to watch.” Game time is set for 7:30 p.m. Polkinghorne said. “She did a nice job passing in critical times of the match. The Ukiah junior varsity won its match, 25-14, 25-18. Freshman sweep Cloverdale J.V. The Ukiah girls freshmen volleyball team swept the Cloverdale junior varsity in three games Wednesday, 2512, 25-11, 25-20. The frosh are still undefeated on the season. Against Cloverdale, Carlee Prine led Ukiah with an all-around performance, notching four kills, three assists, and seven aces. Also for the Wildcats, Shayne Mattern notched three kills, an assist, and seven aces, and Broke Ingram had four kills and one ace. Kari Perritt also had two kills and one ace. “All the girls played really well,” said freshmen coach Valerie Psara. “It’s great to see the progress these ladies have made.” The freshman play again Wednesday, hosting Clearllake at 5:30 p.m. Fans cheered when Harden headed to the outfield to warm up more than an a half-hour before first pitch and another loud greeting when he was announced with the starting lineup. He was reinstated from the DL before the game after recovering from a strained ligament in his right elbow. The A’s are hopeful Harden’s health will hold up so he can pitch in the playoffs. Oakland has missed the postseason the last two years after four straight trips, all of which they lost in the first round. “Having a healthy Rich Harden being able to go out and pitch seven innings is absolutely a tremendous plus for the club,” manager Ken Macha said before the game of Harden’s potential down the stretch if healthy. “Assuming that happens.” ELECTRONIC PROTECTION BY Air Conditioning Tune Up $49.00 • Free Duct leakage test.* • Free refrigerant charge.* • Free report showing system efficiency. DEEP VALLEY SECURITY (707) 462-5200 Security Pro Authorized Dealer 960 N. State Street, Ukiah LIC.#AC03195 1-800-862-5200 MILWAUKEE — With time running out in the playoff race, Moises Alou seemed to concede that the San Francisco Giants’ postseason hopes are all but over. “I think everybody can look at themselves in the mirror and at least say, ’We tried,”’ Alou said. The Giants stumbled again with a 9-4 loss Thursday night to the Milwaukee Brewers, who got a two-run homer and three RBIs from David Bell. “The results aren’t what we expect them to be, but we can’t hang our heads and feel sorry for ourselves,” said Alou, who homered twice in the Giants’ fifth loss in six games. San Francisco began the night four games back in the NL West and 3 1/2 behind in the wild-card race. The Giants have nine games left on their schedule and could play a 10th if it becomes necessary to make up a rainout against St. Louis. Giants manager Felipe Alou wouldn’t concede that his team is out of contention. “I don’t want to get into that,” Alou said. “You won’t get me to say anything. I know there are 10 games left.” San Francisco again had problems with its starting pitching. Matt Morris (10- 15) went 4 1-3 innings, giving up nine runs and nine hits, unraveling in the fifth inning. “I got to get my guy out of there either before or in the fifth inning, three out of (the last) four,” Alou said. “It’s not a pennant race.” The fourth was Matt Cain’s start Tuesday, but he only lasted 5 1-3 innings in a 12-4 loss to Colorado. San Francisco starters are 0-5 with a 14.83 ERA in the last six games. “Only speaking for myself, it’s real disappointing to not be able to come in, put up some zeros and give us a chance to win,” Morris said. Already trailing 4-2, Morris and reliever Jamey Wright combined to walk six and give up two hits, including a two-run single by Brewers starter Dave Bush, as Milwaukee sent 11 men to the plate in its five-run fifth inning. Morris walked Geoff Jenkins and Drew Anderson after recording the first out, and Jenkins scored on an error by Steve Finley, who let Bell’s single skip by him in center field. Morris intentionally walked Mike Rivera to load the bases and Bush hit a chopper over third baseman Pedro Feliz to score two, ending Morris’ night. Wright then walked the $10 OPEN MATCH PLAYS Seven Days A Week: 10 a.m. - 10 p.m. Customers who get a single hit of $500 or more “WIN A FREE RFC SWEATSHIRT*” and will be entered into our “Night Owl” drawings. *While supplies last.

Morris, a former 22-game winner, also hit two batters and is now 1-2 with an 8.54 ERA in his last five starts. “I’ve been so streaky, up and down, up and down,” he said. “More down than up, obviously. With a new team, it’s been a disappointment.” Bush (12-11) pitched 7 13 solid innings, giving up four runs and five hits. He struck out five and walked one. Bush is now 5-0 with a 3.26 ERA in his last five starts at Miller Park and the Brewers, who had been averaging 3.28 runs in their previous 25 games, posted their best offensive effort since scoring 12 on Aug. 24, the day before they began a 10game losing skid. Bush’s only mistakes were a solo home run to Shea Hillenbrand in the fourth and Alou’s two big hits — a solo homer in the fifth and a tworun shot in the seventh that made it 9-4. It was Alou’s first multihomer game this season and 28th of his career. “He gave up three homers and it didn’t kill him,” Brewers manager Ned Yost said. “If Moises Alou wasn’t in the lineup tonight, it would have been a great game for him.” Snyder re-signs with S.F. The Associated Press SANTA CLARA — Adam Snyder, the San Francisco 49ers’ versatile backup offensive lineman, said Thursday he signed a fouryear contract extension that will keep him with the club through 2011. The deal, which was not announced by the team, is worth $10.5 million, with a $4 million signing bonus. Snyder was the second of San Francisco’s two thirdround picks in 2005, and he started seven games at left tackle and one at right guard Live Music Every Weekend 102 S. State St. Ukiah 468-5898 as a rookie last season. He started last week at left tackle against St. Louis, but is expected to slide over to left guard in place of injured Larry Allen this week against the Philadelphia Eagles. The 49ers expect regular left tackle Jonas Jennings to return to the lineup this week from an ankle injury. Snyder, a Southern California native who played at the University of Oregon, is excited to be part of the 49ers’ future plans. “Its close to home, and I like what we’ve started Lakeport Camper 12 years of professional SERVICE Monday - Friday 8am - 5pm •263-7755 FALL DEALS! 1997 Volkswagen Cabrio Convertible 2D 2000 HONDA PASSPORT EX SPORT UTILITY 4D 4x4 One Owner Cool-n-Hot...

Expires October 5, 2006 THE UKIAH DAILY JOURNAL REGION FRIDAY, SEPT. 22, 2006 – B-1 Race for lieutenant governor heats up Candidates and emissaries visit North Coast By JAMES FAULK The Eureka Times-Standard EUREKA -- In the space of a week, the North Coast is seeing a spike in activity for a race that has a hard time enticing voters' attention from the governor's race. The mad dash to become lieutenant governor is a race that pits Democratic Insurance Commissioner John Garamendi against Republican State Sen. Tom McClintock. This week, Patti Garamendi -- the wife of the candidate -came to Humboldt County and met with a group of officials, volunteers and activists for about one hour at Humboldt County Democratic Central Committee headquarters. On hand were Humboldt County Democratic Central Committee members, County Supervisor John Woolley, Eureka Mayor Peter LaVallee, Eureka City Councilman Chris Kerrigan, and state Sen. Wes Chesbro's field representative, Zuretti Goosby. She urged them to get behind Garamendi in what is becoming a real race for the position. Garamendi himself won't be visiting the county until after the election, though he was here last year for the Democrat of the Year celebration. Next week, McClintock will visit the North Coast, said local Republican Mike Harvey. He was also here last year to speak before the Humboldt County Republican Central Committee. Patrick Riggs, chairman of the Humboldt County Democratic Central Committee, said Garamendi supports issues that are close to the hearts of Democrats social justice and supporting the rights of ordinary people over powerful special interests. The office of lieutenant governor is not just a stepping stool to the governor's mansion, he said. It serves to help offload some work from the governor's office, and if Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is reelected, it'll be even more important to have a Democrat in that office, Riggs said. ”You have to counterbalance, to the extent that you can, the influence of that office if it's in the hands of a person you can't trust, regardless of the party,” he said. Harvey was equally sup- portive of McClintock, who he said is more of a policy whiz than any other candidate currently seeking state office. His pro-business stance and his ability to think independently are what set him apart, Harvey said. ”He has good character,” he said. “I don't agree with him on everything, but I do think he would be fantastic in any statewide office.” Harvey also said that he believes McClintock would be much more active in the office than current Lt. Gov. Cruz Bustamante. /:)6,78-616/)884-.-;<1>)4;-8<<08585 CUSD: No car sales in school parking lots school hours: weekends, holidays and during the hours 6 p.m. to 7 a.m. weekdays. A s s i s t a n t Superintendent Randy Meeker explained that school hours are not in the prohibition because it would be too hard to determine if cars that happen to be for sale actually belong to students or staff who drove them to school that day. Meeker said efforts would be made to give notice about the prohibition, including erecting signs in the parking lots and putting stickers on vehicles for first offenses -- each vehicle will get one warning and then it will be towed. Board members approved the resolution unanimously, citing liability issues and the chronic unsightliness of the campus. Pleasant Valley Principal Mike Rupp said he hadn't had a lot of complaints about the spontaneous used car lot, but he agreed that it was an inappropriate use of school property. The resolution originated in the superintendent's office, not from Pleasant Valley, and it was written to include all district properties. By CHRIS GULLICK Chico Enterpirse Record CHICO - The Chico Unified School District board of trustees put a used car lot out of business Wednesday night by passing a resolution that bans use of school parking lots to sell private vehicles. Over the summer, the parking lot at Pleasant Valley High School became a popular for-sale-by-owner site, where cars, trucks, boats and motor homes were left day and night. On most days in June and July, right up until the first day of school in August, at least 35 cars could be seen on the lot, and some days as many as 50 were there. Different locations around town have become unauthorized sales lots in the past until signs were posted and cars got towed. Then, it seems, they just moved to another place. Now, signs will go up at Pleasant Valley and other school parking lots with warnings that vehicles with "For Sale" signs will be towed at the owner's expense. The prohibition will be in effect during non- 4EDDY2OOSEVELT-ARK4WAINLOVEDITHERE !NDTHEYLIVEDINSOMEPRETTYNICEPLACES 0MTX+MTMJZI\M7]Z/ZIVL7XMVQVO ;I\]ZLIa;MX\MUJMZ\P8585 <W]Z\PMJZIVLVM_UWLMT[ 4Q^MMV\MZ\IQVUMV\ )K\Q^Q\QM[NWZ\PM_PWTMNIUQTa ;_MM\IXXTM\ZMI\[ZMNZM[PUMV\[ +ITT !WZ^Q[Q\+ZMMS*ZQLOMKWU 5WLMT[VW_WXMVLIQTaNZWU)585 $IRECTIONS&ROM(IGHWAYEXIT0ERKINS#ENTRAL5KIAH4URNEASTON6ICHY3PRINGS2OAD3TAYON6ICHY3PRINGS2OAD FORAPPROXIMATELYTHREEMILES 0RICESTERMSANDCONDITIONSARESUBJECTTOCHANGEWITHOUTNOTICE3EE3ALES2EPRESENTATIVESFORDETAILS¥#REEK"RIDGE,,# HONDA GREAT DEALS ON NEW 2007 HONDAS RIGHT NOW!

Step by step and line by line, things will add up to impressive accomplishments. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- In situations where you are required to exercise authority over others, you’ll get much more from them by being cordial and pleasant rather than authoritative and demanding. Play it smart. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Because of your innate concern for others, you’ll use your assets and abilities wisely and things should work out quite well for you. Your intuition will provide what logic leaves out. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- One of your greatest assets is your natural curiosity to get to know people better from all walks of life. This splendid quality will govern your involvements now and bring you much happiness. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19) -- No one will have to tell you to focus your efforts on your most meaningful objectives because that is what you enjoy most in life. You’ll keep your eye on the achievement at hand. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 19) -- To your credit, you’ll treat today’s developments philosophically, whether they are beneficial or not.

You’re aware a number of small achievements can add up to successful results that will bring a giant gain. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Decision-making will not pose the difficulty it might otherwise have for you. This is because you’ll base your findings on what would personally mean the most to those involved.

It’s a second marriage for us both. My husband has a 30-year-old son, “Tommy,” who lives with his fiancee halfway across the country. Tommy recently was diagnosed with aggressive facial cancer and has to go through radiation treatment and have multiple surgeries and reconstruction. My husband made one week-long trip to see Tommy. He told me he was going to stay in a hotel, but when he got there, he wanted to be close to his son, so he stayed with Tommy. My husband’s ex-wife also has been staying there. Tommy has a two-bedroom apartment. Needless to say, I was uncomfortable the whole time he was gone. I just recently found out that my husband is planning another trip. When we discuss it, he gets very defensive. I have let him know the next time he goes, I would like to come and show my support. I have met Tommy several times, and we get ANNIE’S MAILBOX By Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar along well. I have sent cards, flowers and pictures. What else can I do to make things better? -- Trying To Help Dear Trying: Sometimes it’s best to send love and support from a distance. While Tommy doesn’t have to clean up for Mom and Dad, he might feel obligated to be on better behavior for a stepparent, which could be stressful for him. And although caring for their son may create a bond for your husband and his ex, it is temporary and revolves around their child. If the visits become longer and more frequent, you might buy yourself a ticket to come along. In the meantime, give your husband a lot of TLC when he returns. He needs FRIDAY EVENING 6:00 6:30 7:00 7:30 8:00 8:30 9:00 9:30 10:00 10:30 11:00 comforting, too, and you should be the one who provides it. Dear Annie: I am a gay male. I have been out to my family for years. However, the other day, I was at my aunt’s house, and her son and his entire family were there. I made some comments to her granddaughter about how pretty I thought she was and how, with her looks, I didn’t think she would have any problems finding a guy. My aunt then spoke up and said, “How would you know? You’re gay!” This remark really hurt. I said something to her about it, and she insisted she was just kidding, but it’s nothing to joke about when I become the object of ridicule. What do you suggest I do about this? -- Hurting in Florida Dear Hurting: We think your aunt was insensitive, but we don’t believe she meant to hurt your feelings or ridicule you. She probably believes a gay man is not capable of appreciating the attractiveness of a female. You need to educate her, not chastise her. You’ll accomplish more without the hard feelings. Dear Annie: I thought I might add my expe- rience to those other ladies who were upset that people asked if they were pregnant, when, in fact, they were simply overweight. Several years ago, I was very pregnant with our first child and quite large in my ninth month. My appearance often drew many smiles and sympathetic glances from other women, but one day at the grocery store, a complete stranger shocked the daylights out of me. This gruff, loudmouthed older man walked up to me and said in a loud voice, “Are you pregnant or are you just FAT?!” I was appalled at his nerve, but I shot back in an equally loud voice, “Are you stupid or are you just RUDE?” He turned on his heel and left me alone. Others who overheard laughed along with me. I bet that fool never posed that question again. So many times we think of a witty reply hours or days after the situation. I’m thankful I came up with that one on the spot. Perhaps others could use it. -- K.D. Dear K.D.: Here it is for all to enjoy.

With so many advertising mediums dividing the attention of potential customers, newspapers remain the most effective source for reaching consumers. Why? Simply put, newspapers reach more people, more often. Highly portable and highly visible, newspaper ads go with people and stay with them. That means your business is more likely to be on their minds when they’re in the market for related products or services. When it comes to spending your advertising dollars, make the choice that’s tried and true: newspaper advertising works harder for you. 468-3500 To advertise, call today 707-468-3500!
