A rat kiss, for those who haven't had the privilege, is a snout poke and gentle nibble on the cheek or ear. •I have two who are very kissy, • said Beverly Wolter, a Costa Mesa native and board member of the Southern California Rat and Mouse Club of America. •They're very sociable.

In :1 one-year study, a prescription medication was shown to maintain function longer compared with placebo in patients with mild-to-modcracc: Alzheimer s disease. Results of lhis one-year study first presen1cd in London at the 12th European College of Neuropsychopharmacology Congress ID September 1999, confinned rhat p;uicnu treated with the once-daily prescription me<licarion known as Ariccpl'9 (doncpczil hydrochloride) for up to one year were more: likely 10 maintain their ability ro perform aetivities of daily living such as dressing, cuing meals, handling money, grasping srru:itions or cxplanation.s, handling personal mail, wfog the tdcphone and doing household wlcs. Ariccpl'9 is the only Alzheimer's disease drug in the cholincstcra.sc mhibicor class with two one· year. pbccbo controlled criaJs. ·These findings provide evidence that median time to functional loss is longer in pauents who arc treated with Aric:epr-dian those treated with placebo in a one-year clinkal rrial," said John C. Morris. MD, professor of neurology, Wa.mingcon University School of Medicine in St. Louis. •For patients, this means that they arc more lilcdy to be able co c.ontinue to enjoy cvayday activities longer thlll without medication." At 48 wccla, patients taking Aricept9 had a 51 percent likelihood of maintaining funcuon compaicd with a 35 percent likelihood for those on placebo. In addition, the estimated time ic took for half of the patients on Ariccpl'8 co lote funaion (median time• 357 days) WU n pcrocnt longer chill the time it molt for half of those on placebo (median time • 208 days). Although Abbeuntr's dUc:ue u incurab&c. medical crcauncn1 is available to manage some of the symptoms. Once-daily Arice~ aablca, for example, can improve cognition ~d maintain patient function in F,Ple with mild-ro-mqderate Alzheimer s disca.sc. In controlled clinical trials of up to six • months, more than 80 percent of paricnu talcing Aricepl'9 experienced a best change score of improved cognition or no further decline compared with 58 pcrcenr of patients on placebo. These findings arc based on the bcsr 5GOre achieved on the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-cognicive subscale (ADAS-cog) for each patient fiom week I 2 through week 24 of the study. In a progressively dcgcncrativc disease such as Alzheimer's, no further decline or a less than expected decline is considered a favorable response. Improvement, saabiliz.arion and decline have been observed in pacicna created with Ariccpr-in clinical criaJs. Individual responses to A.riocpl'9 trcauncnt may vary. J"o date. more than one million people in the United Stata have rcccived a prcKription for Aric::qxe contributing to a total of 314 million days of patient we wortdwide.

Hi. again. Por those just tuning in, I vented on Tuesday about what's going on in the world of youth baseball and I jumped on my soapbox rather proudly with my opinions. . Bqt what do I know? I'm just another pretty face that can type pretty well. Let's bear what some local prep coaches around the area have to say about youth baseball's current condition, both good and bad. But before I do, keep in mind that these problems are in no way the total reflection of youth baseball. Actually, about 95% of all players, parents and coaches are fine and a great example to the game. But, it's that other 5% that people remember and it's that 5% that.make the news. With that said, play ball, coaches. •Sometimes, it's the situation of a MEN'S aua GOlf parent trying to live through their children's lives,• Corona del Mar High Coach John Emme said. •They tried to make it to the big leagues, they didn't make, so they do everything in their power to get their kid there. But it's not just the parents. A lot bas to do with the coaches. Not just youth baseball, there are high school and college coaches who I think don't belong teaching kids anything. Where does it endi" Emme grew up playing baseball in Glendafe. Ba.ck then, there were 12 different leagues where players of all levels could play and get the attention they need. "Now, it's down to one league,• be said. •rt•s so specialized these days and there's so many personal coaches and tutors and year-round prograJ?S. I think it takes away from the fun of the glllne and it actually becomes work. It should never get that far.~ Estancia High Coach Doug Deats grew up locally and played in the Harbor Area Baseball program. . "There never was an emphasis on winning at the younger • levels," Deats said. "There was a coach that taught both teams on the field, there was equal instruction going on, we played in T·shirta and Jeans on the grass fields of TeWlnkle Park and we had a blast. I think that .some things should be kept simple.• Harbor Area Baseball. They obviously learned bow to play the game pretty well• Newport Harbor High Coach Jim Kiefer has some kleu on what needs to be• done on the adults' side to help~e. • 1 kids need more Deats contends that even • though the game had a less professional look than what is played today, the game was still taught the same and the quality of the play was just as good. tony Altobelli BASEBAll respect for the game,• he said. •Baseball is about dealing with adversity and working as a team to try to overcome these adversities. We, as adults, should be •1 remember thinking how much better I could have been if I played in Huntington Beach Llttle League or other better-looking programs,· Deats said. "But I don't think it's that big a difference. The q\Jallty of the coaching was just as good as the · other pr~ams. Look at CdM. They won a CJ.F title lit 1981, while Estancia was very strong in the late '80s and all of those kids played ambassadors of the game. Teach the kids the histoJY of the game and that It's OK to want to win and to be competitive, but to do it the right way. Keep the game simple at a young age and teach them to · appreciate what they have at each level• One thing all coaches in all sports agree is important and that's respect from the players to, not only tbe coaches, but the game itself.

"Ground rules have to be established and anyone that.does not adhere to the rules will tie reprtmanded, • the parent said. "Even if it's the 'star' player and benching that player might be costly to the outoome d the game. I think teaching that lesson is more important than any game. Plus, if a coach follows through like that, you can bet that all the other pla)'.el'S will follow the rules the rest of the season.• These were just some of the points expressed by concerned members of the community. Once ag4lin. only a small handful of players, coaches and parents are causing these issues to even be mentioned. I know It's much worse in other areas. Let's learn from the jerks around the country who are disgracing their .community and embaJTassing their families. U we don't, it's only going to getwone.
