The analysis didn't calculate racetrack slots into its analysis for the four casinos. The study also correctly assumed Kentucky legislators would not pass any plan to legalize slot operations at Bluegrass State racetracks.

While the racetracks have a head start, the casino proposal has competitive advantages over slot operation at horse tracks: Jason Pawlina, an analyst TRUCKS FROM 1A The top finisher from the area was Danny Shaw of Coshocton, tying for fourth place with a time of 44.0 and earned $125. Wayne Lippencott of Dellroy was sixth and earned $100. Earning $100 for the longest jump was Jason Daniels of Tiffin, who also earned $50 for his seventhbest time. The event was sponsored by the Coshocton Agricultural Society and Three Rivers Firefighter's Association. Event organizer Rodney Adams said the event continues to be a nice draw for the community.

"It's holding steady but the economy has affected it some," Adams said. "This summer we're probably better than most other places. The competitions have been averaging from 25 to 45 competitors and we have 49 SO I'm really pleased." Money raised will be divided between the Coshocton County Agricultural Society and the Three Rivers Fire District. "I was kind of nervous but I was the only girl in my Auto Tech class so guys don't scare me," said Toni Cooper of Coshocton, one of only two female competitors entered. "I hadn't done it before myself, but I've always wanted to since I was a little girl.

My goal was to finish and then be in COUNTRY FROM 1A Kathy Stevens from Gospel Hill Ministries also charmed the crowd with her vivacious gospel vocals. The church was established 160 years ago, and many of its 123 members are older or have been in the area for quite some time, and Jacobsen hopes visitors will become involved with community events and the church. "A lot of the neighborhood who are not members came out, and it's all about them. A church isn't for the members its for the people outside of it." Church member Rhonda Wright has grown up in with Christiansen Capital Advisors in New York, estimated Ohio could accommodate between $2.3 billion to $2.5 billion in gambling at casinos and racetracks within a few years. But he noted.

horse tracks won't necessarily get the $1 billion in revenue projected, because the hefty $65 million license fees and the high: 50 percent state tax rate on gambling revenues might slow development. "The taxes and the licenses sound high that makes them riskier businesses," he said.

A friend had a truck sitting around so we diecid- the area and arouncl the church. She said her uncle, 95-year-old Melvin Scherer, even walked to the church as he does every Sunday. Wright said she wants to instill those kinds of values in not only her children, but younger generations. "There is a void somewhere in today's lifestyles," Wright said, a different set of priorities for younger people it seems." Vice president of trustees for the church, Ed Honabarger said the church has not only reason to celebrate reaching young members, but also its recently added aesthetics.

Joseph Weinert, a senior vice president with Spectrum Gaming Group in Atlantic City, said gambling operators typically invest less in their properties if they're subject to higher taxes and fees. If the casinos were approved with relatively lower taxes and fees, they'll build a bigger, plusher complex that will in turn draw more business. "A lower tax rate typically equates to a nicer facility because the operator has more money to invest in the property," he said. "The higher the tax rate, the more spartan the casino is." Pete Leach.

Honabarger said, "One night I had a dream about it I started at 10 at night and by 2 in the morning I had the drawing of the sign to scale." The church is planning another country meeting in August, with an ensemble performing from Bethel Ministries in Coshocton. The church is on Renner's Road or Tuscarawas County Road 41 just miles from West Lafayette and Fresno. Jacobsen also is the pastor at the Zion United Church of Christ in Baltic. Astronauts install porch on Japanese lab By MARCIA DUNN Associated Press CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. Astronauts working inside and out installed a porch for experiments on Japan's enormous space station lab Saturday, accomplishing the major objective despite microphone static that often drowned out the spacewalkers' voices.

Veteran spaceman David Wolf and rookie Timothy Kopra could barely make themselves understood at times because of the loud static emanating from their helmet microphones. "Dave, you're unreadable," astronaut Christopher Cassidy called from inside the shuttle-station complex. Two hours later, it was no better. "It's hard to follow along with this comm," Cassidy said, looking for clarification on what the spacewalkers were doing. The trouble lasted the entire 5 spacewalk, the first of five planned during Endeavour's space station visit.

NASA officials said it was a minor nuisance, not a safety issue, and they hoped to resolve the problem before the next space- David Lloyd Sturtz KIMBOLTON: David Lloyd Sturtz, age 66, of Kimbolton, passed away on Thursday, July 16, 2009.

He was 113. Allingham's longtime friend Dennis Goodwin said he died in his sleep at St. Dunstan's care home in Ovingdean, near Brighton on England's south coast. Allingham was one of only two surviving serviceman from World War I in Britain.

The other is Harry Patch, who served in the trenches during the conflict. There are no surviving French veterans. The last remaining American veteran is Frank Woodruff Buckles of Charles Town, West Virginia. Allingham joined the Royal Naval Air Service precursor to the Royal Air Force in 1915, and a year later took part in the Battle of Jutland, the war's largest naval battle. During World War II he worked on measures to counter magnetic mines.

He co-wrote an autobiography, "Kitchener's Last Volunteer," a reference to Britain's war secretary who rallied men to the cause and was made an Officer of France's Legion of Honor. Allingham spent the last years of his life reminding others of the 9 million soldiers killed in the conflict, anxious that people should remember their sacrifice. walk on Monday. Indeed, Wolf and Kopra wasted no time 220 miles above the earth in prepping the Kibo lab Hope in Japanese and the new porch for their mechanical hookup. Wolf removed an insulating cover from the lab and tossed it over board; the white cover drifted away, flipping tend over end." The spacewalkers then moved on to other routine work at the international space station as their colleagues inside used the shuttle and station robot arms, one at a time, to lift the Japanese porch from Endeavour's payload bay and hoist it toward the Kibo lab.

The spacewalk was over by the time the porch was finally latched in place. It marked the completion of Japan's $1 billion lab, three so big shuttle that it required flights to launch everything. The first two sections of the lab flew up last year. The veranda about 16 feet square will get its first experiments in five more days. Mission Control's congratulations to Wolf and Kopra, as they headled back inside, could hardly be heard because of the static.

In the end, the two fell behind and had to skip some chores. They managed to free a platform for spare parts that jammed months ago, using a specially designed tool. But they did not have time to release a similar platform on the opposite side of the outpost. With Apollo 11 on the minds of many back on Earth, NASA noted that Saturday's spacewalk was the 201st by Americans since those first steps on the moon by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin 40 years ago this Monday. Remaining inside the linked shuttle and station were 11 astronauts, a full house.

The station population swelled to a record 13 when Endeavour arrived Friday for a 1 stay. Kopra, the station's newest resident, will remain on board for another months. Earlier Saturday, Mission Control had both good and bad news for the 13 spacefarers. The good: Endeavour looks to be in fine shape for re-entry at the end of the month, although a review of shuttle photos and other data continues.
