Immunization and flu shot clinic FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 www.mydailysentinel.com Meigs Local reaches contract agreement with teachers By Charlene Hoeflich hoeflich@mydailysentinel.com POMEROY – The Meigs Local Teachers Association and the Meigs Local Board of Education have negotiated and agreed on the terms for a two-year contract extension, effective from July 1, 2011 when the last contract expired, to June 30, 2014. At this week’s meeting of the Board of Education, members voted unanimously to ratify the memorandum of understanding which makes the current negotiated agreement effective immediately. POMEROY – The Meigs County Health Department will conduct a childhood immunization and flu shot clinic Tuesday from 9 to 11 a.m. and 1 to 3 p.m. at its offices on Memorial Drive. Children must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian with the shot records. Also take medical cards if applicable. A $10 donation is appreciated for immunization administration, however, no one will be denied services because of an inability to pay. Terms of the contract, as detailed by Treasurer/CFO Mark Rhonemus, are as follows: • No increase on the base pay but there will be a $250 signing bonus to be paid on the first paycheck in December. • A 28-year experience step (increased from 25) which means the last three years with the steps will boost the amount of the teacher’s pension. This means that now instead of receiving an experience increase for 25 years, the increase will be given for 28 years. Steps for experience are given automatically whether the base pay is increased, according to the treasurer. • Next year (2012-13) the base salary will move from $26,520 to $27,000 for a beginning teacher. In exchange for the base pay increase, the beginning teachers will be required to pay two percent more on their insurance premium, taking that figure from the current six percent to eight percent. The following year they will have an additional $500 added to the base pay which takes then to $27,500 and they will pay an additional two percent, so by the end of the two year contract, they are paying 10 percent on their insurance premium. • Also as a part of the negotiated By Brian Reed BReed@mydailysentinel.com POMEROY – All regularly priced clothes and shoes will be free for the taking on Friday at the Remnants of Faith Parish Shop located in the Mulberry Community Building in Pomeroy.

This is Active Aging Week, and older Americans are being encouraged to expand their experiences by becoming “engaged in life.” Adding diverse activities to a daily schedule contributes to the overall physical and mental health of anyone, and especially seniors. Whether enjoying a brisk walk on a walking path, exercising on equipment, going dancing, providing volunteer service somewhere, or just finding something interesting to do or learn can make a difference. “Expand your Experience” is the theme of Active Aging Week and the emphasis is on what older adults can do, not on what they can’t do. Knowing the importance of an active lifestyle at any age, Pam Vaughan, Rod Karr and Donna Carr, left to right, spend time working out at the Meigs County Council on Aging’s Wellness Center. Lawrence Eblin is not only the rowing machine champion at the Senior Center, but he’s a favorite entertainer. Dancing is a good exercise for any age and on Monday nights at the Mulberry Community Center you’ll find the Belles and Beaus square dancing.

The ARC announced the grant to the village. The award will allow the village to upgrade its water service for seven businesses, Carleton School and 30 private residences. The existing system was installed in 1955. According to the ARC’s news release, the system’s brittle and corroded lines are undersized, and provide inadequate flow for fire protection and require frequent and costly repair. Problems with low pressure present problems for the Syracuse Community Center, Carleton School and Meigs Industries.

Visit us online at www.mydailysentinel.com 60249490 60249442 INGELS CARPET For those already listed, a 2006 study from the Government Accountability Office found projected recovery costs ranged widely — from $125 million for the whooping crane, to $58,000 for the decurrent false aster, a type of flower. The GAO pegged the average cost for the species it examined at $15.9 million, with recoveries often lasting decades. Determining the broader costs to the economy is more difficult. Lost jobs from restrictions placed on logging or agriculture might be offset by benefits to outdoor recreational industries like boating or fishing, said Jason Shogren, a natural resources professor in the economics department at the University of Wyoming. Under the current settlements, only 13 new animals and plants have reached the final step and been added to the almost 1,400 species on the government’s threatened and endangered list. Also, not every species made the cut to take the next step. Roughly 40 rejections have been meted out, including for plains bison, the giant Palouse earthworm of Idaho and Utah’s Gila monster. Those rejections are subject to court challenges. Among species that advanced for further consideration are 35 snails from Nevada’s Great Basin, 82 crawfish from the Southeast, 99 Hawaiian plants and a motley cast of butterflies, birds, fish, beetles, frogs, lizards, mussels and more from every corner of the country. Some have languished for decades on a “candidate list” of species the government says warrant protection but that it lacks the resources to help. That deadline was established in a pair of settlements approved by U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan on Sept. 9. Those deals resolved multiple lawsuits brought against the Fish and Wildlife Service by Arizona-based Center for Biological Diversity and New Mexico-based WildEarth Guardians. WildEarth Guardians’ Mark Salvo said the agency’s actions so far lend credence to claims that the affected species were in serious trouble. “The science supports protecting these species,” he said. Fish and Wildlife Service director Dan Ashe praised the deal in a statement, referring to the Endangered Species Act as a “critical safety net for America’s imperiled fish, wildlife and plants.” Agency spokeswoman Vanessa Kauffman said much of the work to comply with the settlements was well under way before the deals were finalized. The settlements also contained provisions to limit the number of petitions that can be filed by the two environmental groups if they want more animals and plants considered for protections. Kauffman said that would free up agency staff to spend more time on species recovery. Noah Greenwald with the Center for Biological Diversity said the Fish and Wildlife Service was making “substantial progress.” “This is what we were looking for — starting to move species out of the pipeline into listing, and getting more species into the pipeline to get them under consider- See ANIMALS, A3 �The Daily Sentinel Ask Dr. Brothers By The Bend Friend hesitant to share true feelings Animals From Page A2 ation,” he said. Under the settlements, the Fish and Wildlife Service put off decisions on some of the more contentious species, including greater sage grouse, the Pacific walrus and Sonoran desert tortoise. Those are due over the next several years and could have wideranging implications for oil and gas drilling, grazing and, in the case of the walrus, potentially for climate change policies. Similar tensions have surfaced throughout the Endangered Species Act’s history, from fights in the 1990s over the spotted owl and logging in the Pacific Northwest to recent clashes over how much undeveloped habitat threatened grizzly bears need. But there are ways to work through those conflicts, said Thomas Lovejoy, with the Heinz Center in Washington. A former biodiversity adviser to the World Bank, Lovejoy pointed to the red-cockaded woodpecker, found in 11 southern and south-central states, and said recovery was being achieved even as development continues, under deals ensuring enough habitat is protected elsewhere. “The first thing that will happen is people will look at this and say, ‘Oh my God, the slender salamander, what is that going to do for us?’” Lovejoy said. “It’s not in every example the government tightens the screws.” Dr. Joyce Brothers depends on how each individual feels, but are little things like catcalls or calling mixed-gender groups “guys” really all that harmful for women? — L.R. Dear L.R.: The short answer, it seems, is yes. While you personally might not feel very targeted or demeaned by these particular comments, other women might. In fact, according to a recent study in the journal Sex Roles, even women who simply witness comments like these can be affected, so your apparent invulnerability may not extend to others. When witnessing sexist acts — even something as simple as a seemingly harmless catcall — women are more likely to think about themselves in terms of their gender identity, and therefore feel more anger toward men generally — this means that women are experiencing these affronts as how they affect women in general, rather than themselves as individuals. The more-subtle forms of sexism, like referring to mixed-gender groups with the male “guys,” actually may have similar effects on women as a whole. Once these subtler signs are noticed, though, women seem to feel the sexist undercurrents more acutely than men, who have to be convinced that these speech patterns can have larger implications for gender identity. So, while you may not personally feel threatened by a sexist comment yelled on the street, you should examine that comment in the larger context of your gender and whether you’d want, for example, your daughter to experience the same form of sexism in the future.

NASA IDs 90 pct. of largest near-Earth asteroids LOS ANGELES (AP) — If you’re worried about a killer asteroid wiping out Earth, NASA has some good news. The space agency said Thursday it has identified more than 90 percent of giant near-Earth asteroids, including ones as big as the one thought to have killed the dinosaurs eons ago. None poses a danger to the planet in the next several centuries. “We know now where most of them are and where most of them are going. That really has reduced our risk” of an impact, said Amy Mainzer of the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. NASA researchers also downgraded their estimate of the number of mediumsized asteroids, saying there are 44 percent fewer than previously believed. The downside is that scientists have yet to find many of these mid-sized asteroids, which could destroy a metropolitan city. “Fewer does not mean none,” Mainzer said. “There are still tens of thousands out there that are left to find.” The updated census comes from data from NASA’s sky-mapping spacecraft named Widefield Infrared Survey Explorer, or WISE, which launched in 2009 to seek out near-Earth objects, galaxies, stars and other cosmic targets. Unlike previous sky surveys, WISE has sensitive instruments that can pick out both dark and light objects, allowing it to get the most Bee keeper speaks on healthy hives detect the more than a million smallest asteroids that could cause damage if they impact Earth. The spacecraft recently ran out of coolant and is currently in hibernation. By locating most of the giant asteroids, NASA has fulfilled a goal set by Congress in 1998.

For the largest asteroids — bigger than 3,300 feet across — NASA said 911 of the 981 thought to exist have been found. None poses a threat to Earth in the near future, the space agency said.

For additional information visit www. angelfire.com/nb/movb. 60239690 Dear Dr. Brothers: The other day a friend of mine asked me what I think about her new boyfriend. The truth is, I think he’s a creep — he treats her badly, from what I can tell, and I just don’t like him. She and I are not that close, though, and I don’t know whether I should tell her my true feelings about this guy or keep them to myself to preserve our friendship. Do I tell her that I don’t like him, or keep my judgment to myself? — G.C. Dear G.C.: This can be a tricky situation to navigate, so pay attention to her cues if and when this conversation comes up again. As more of an acquaintance than a close friend, it’s not necessarily your place to point out your negative opinion of your friend’s boyfriend, especially if this is a relationship that’s fairly serious. If she’s convinced he’s the best thing since sliced bread, and you go off on a tirade about how terrible he is, there’s nothing productive to the conversation. If you’re becoming closer to this friend of yours, or trying to take your friendship further, this kind of argument can be a big setback. A good way to approach this conversation is by reflecting the question back to your friend. Rather than launch into your opinion, ask her how things have been going between them recently. If she’s looking for someone to vent to, this will give her an opening without you putting any specific opinions out there. If she’s expressing things that you’ve noticed too, there’s no harm in agreeing and giving your opinion then. On the other hand, if she has nothing bad to say and is just looking for some reassurance, you may want to stay quiet; you might not have the full story. But if you’re worried, you could mention it to other mutual friends and find out their opinions. *** Dear Dr. Brothers: I got catcalled walking down the street the other day, for the first time in a long time. I thought the days of sexism that blatant were past us, but apparently I was wrong. I then started thinking about what exactly made these catcalls so horrible, since it was kind of a confidence boost for me.

Thomas Johnson A year or so ago I wrote that a certain indiscretion on the part of our son and his then-girlfriend had resulted in my wife and I becoming grandparents. Since then, my son and his ex have separated, been in court several times, and Caleb has bounced between his two parents. Having grown up in a far different day and age (I recently turned 60), I was brought up under stricter parameters than are in effect today, such that neither “good boys” nor “nice girls” did IT before they were married. Since there always have been exceptions to every rule, an unmarried young lady with an obvious “baby bump,” though a rarity, wasn’t entirely unheard of. Caleb is another baby born out of wedlock. However, as his altogether open-minded, objective, and unbiased grandfather I’m going to brag about him: he’s adorable, endowed with a sweet disposition, a real blessing, and every time he’s with us, we delight in his presence. Unfortunately, he’s never with us as much as we’d like him to be, something to which most grandparents relate. Caleb’s frequent absence from our family loop is, again, the result of his parents no longer being together, and the recent decision of a certain judge who nullified their previous arrangement whereby both parents shared custody on a 50-50 basis. That males and females have sexual relations outside of marriage comes as no surprise to anyone. In hindsight, you might even concede Adam and Eve did too, since the “institution” we now know as marriage was then very much a different arrangement. Now, then, virtually every study I have read on the matter of raising children underscores the fact that children raised in a household where both parents are present do better than those raised in a single-parent environment. This concerns me. As you might expect, my wife and I have entrusted God with Caleb’s protection and well-being. What galls me is the damnable fact there are so many single parents around, with many young ladies having been abandoned by their baby’s father and forced to raise the child alone. To those who opine that abor- www.mydailysentinel.com The Daily Sentinel • Page A5 A Hunger for More By Thom Mollohan tion is a legitimate option, there’s a better one: ABSTINENCE. Unfortunately, modern-day society is so horribly decadent and immoral, and at the same time so inexcusably tolerant, as to no longer teach this. Indeed, libertarians and progressives find the concept offensive and oppressive, regressive and restrictive, too—so much so they dismiss it out-of-hand as naïve and untenable. By the way, never underestimate what today’s youth know. It’s been my experience they can quote you chapter and verse as regards their legal rights and privileges, just as the majority of those dependent on the public dole can tell you, in great detail, what they are “entitled to” and have no intention of being denied! If you’re proud of their “street smarts,” then you probably care not a whit that many young Americans are failing in the traditional three R’s of reading, writing, and arithmetic. Mean-while, many of these same young people dress down to such an extent girls are revealing more of themselves than ever before was allowable or “lady-like,” and I can’t help but conclude many boys have never discovered that the loops in their pants are meant for belts to fit into so as to hold those pants up! I’m proud to say my son “manned-up” to his deed; not only that, but our son is fully committed to helping pay the costs associated with Caleb’s growing up. As opposed to what numerous other guys have done when in his shoes, our son didn’t run out on his girlfriend when she found herself pregnant. By the way, compelling a young man to marry the girl he has impregnated is NOT an effective solution for a teenaged pregnancy. Please, “two wrongs never make a right.” I suppose I should include a Scripture passage to justify my position, so let it be the 20th chapter of Exodus or Deuteronomy 5:127—i.e., The Ten Commandments. As ancient as they are, they’re still in effect and still good for us, too. Of course, those who are opposed to God and His laws are this way because people really haven’t changed over the years; many are those who would be like Lucifer himself, and be gods unto themselves. Many Americans are of this ilk; hence, our troubled nation. Need I say more? Faith is a tricky thing. And much of what is tricky about it isn’t merely in whether or not we have it, but also in whether or not we understand what it is about it that is actually pleasing to God. If by “faith” we simply mean religious activity or affiliation with a religious body (e.g., “I go to such-andsuch church”) then we’ve totally missed what God means by faith. Is it really important to get this right? Is it truly necessary for us to understand what God means by “faith” and “belief in Him”? Well, frankly, God seems to think that it is important for us to understand His pointof-view on the matter for He makes some very direct remarks about it. For example, He says, “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it the men of old gained approval. By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the Word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible” (Hebrews 11:1-3). This kind of “faith” is not just an invocation of a higher power. It is a radical reliance upon the provision and power of a loving heavenly Father Who sent His Son to accomplish for us what we could not. Living a perfectly righteous life (thereby totally vindicating the Law of God) and then suffering and dying in our place of judgment for our sin were all beyond our reach. So if the mercy and strength of God was mobilized to effect for us so great a salvation (see Hebrews 2:3), are we then willing to acknowledge our confidence in His promise by aligning our lives with His desires for us, our families, our churches, and our communities? Inasmuch as we are willing to do so, we truly have faith. Faith is simply a confidence in God’s power that affects our values, priorities, attitudes, and actions. Are you sick? Biblical faith moves you to seek guidance and consolation in His Word, the Bible, and then to say, “God can heal me. And if Made you look. That's right this small piece of information caught your attention didn't it? Just think what an ad this size could do for your business. Call your local newspaper today. He chooses to not bring healing, it is simply because He has a great good that He will reap through it.” Are you facing financial difficulties? Jesus Himself knows what it means to trust the Father day-by-day for sustenance. Again, as you look to adjust your life and attitude to God’s plan for living, faith teaches you to trust God to meet your daily needs and to find peace in knowing that your heavenly Father hears your prayer to “give us this day our daily bread” (Matthew 6:11). And speaking of bread, don’t miss the most important Word on faith of all… that believing in Jesus Christ is the most crucial step you or anyone else can ever take in regard to spiritual life… in regard to anything, for that matter. “Jesus answered and said to them, ‘This is the work of God, that you believe in Him Whom He has sent…. Truly, truly, I say to you… it is My Father Who gives you the true bread out of heaven. For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven, and gives life to the world…. I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me shall not hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst…. Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes has eternal life. “I am the bread of life”…. I am the living bread that came down out of heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he shall live forever; and the bread also which I shall give for the life of the world is My flesh (John 6:29, 32b-33, 35, 47-48, 51). So how does one “eat” this spiritual bread anyway? Jesus answers it Himself in John 6:47, “… he who believes has eternal life.” One eats spiritual bread by spiritually devouring it: we take in His Word, digest it, and then rely upon its sufficiency. Relying on the sufficiency of His promise that Jesus’ perfect life, death, and resurrection have accomplished for us open access to His throne is the kind of faith that pleases Him. “…We have been sanctified (made clean and set apart for the purposes of God) through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all…. We have confidence to enter the holy place by the blood of Jesus… let us draw near with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He Who promised is faithful and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another…” (Hebrews 10:10, 19, 23-25). Faith isn’t really that tricky after all. Faith that pleases God isn’t an accumulation of good deeds and isn’t even about earning righteousness on our own merits (no one can measure up to God’s standard of righteousness on his own anyway). Nor is it some magic power we use to get what we want or make God do what we want Him to do. And it isn’t even always feeling secure and tranquil, although many believe that unless they “feel” their faith, then they must not have it. Faith is simply choosing to rely on our Lord’s Word, trusting in His goodness and power to help us in whatever needs we’re facing, and taking whatever steps in life that are in keeping with that reliance and trust. Are you hungry for more of God in your life? Then visit Him in His Word. Fellowship with Him in a church that is truly seeking Him. As you see more and more clearly what God is like, and what He asks of you, trust Him enough to do as He asks. Be the kind of person He wants you to be in your heart, your family, your work, and your worship. Discover that He is indeed the bread of life that abundantly nourishes your spirit for this life and prepares your soul for the next.

In 2008, Greg Biffle won in Loudon and at Dover to begin the Chase. He then posted a third at Kansas in the third race. However, Jimmie Johnson and Carl Edwards combined to win the last five races of the season and finished first and second in the Chase, while Biffle was a distant third. UNDERDOG NO MORE Brad Keselowski is not being overlooked by any Chase team. With his runner-up finish in New Hampshire, the 27-yearold in his second full Cup season now has nine consecutive runs of 12th or better. He’s averaged a 4.5-place finish in that span and sits third in the standings, only 11 points behind the leader, Stewart.

Smoke has two consecutive wins and an average finish of fourth over the last four weeks. Peaking at the right time. Probably had the best car in New Hampshire, but the fuel calculations were off. That most likely cost him six valuable championship points, which could come back to bite. Yes, he’s in a hole, but do you dare kick dirt on his grave yet? Johnson, Knaus and the boys are at their best when fighting for points at playoff time. In case you needed any further convincing, Keselowski and the No. 2 team are for real. And they’re a dangerous third in the point standings. Edwards is riding a five race top-10 streak and sits fourth in the standings. This team has been able to post numerous wins in short order in the past. Can they do it again this year? Will Harvick fall back into the seventh- to 14th-place swoon of mid-summer? Not likely, but worth keeping in mind as the Chase heats up. Passed more cars than any driver on the track after rebounding from a spin in New Hampshire. Had to be a tough pill to swallow that the spin came courtesy of his teammate, Edwards. Still dangerous, but looking mortal following 22nd- and 11th-place showings to start the Chase. Is a “Come to Coach Gibbs” meeting in order? Led the first 62 laps after sitting on the pole in Loudon, but a flat tire with five laps to go was a killer. This team still has the potential to rebound, but how far is unclear. Another victim of tire issues, Junior blew one out while running sixth with 71 laps remaining. Even when this bunch runs well, they can’t seem to catch a break. Busch’s day in Loudon started bad and stayed that way. A near-win with Harvick’s cast-away’d pit crew had to feel like a moral victory. Led 46 laps after gaining track position, but faded to 24th in a frustrating ending. Three laps to go. Running sixth. Out of fuel. Such is the No. 11 team’s season. Has quietly pieced together three consecutive runs of 11th or better.

Concrete has its pluses and minuses, but it made this track a lot better.” Tony Stewart notches second straight win, leads Chase standings. By MATT TALIAFERRO Athlon Sports Racing Editor Most had written off Tony Stewart as a legitimate 2011 championship contender — including himself, if you believed his words in the midst of a 27th-, ninth- and 28th-place string just six weeks ago. After all, his No. 14 team was winless through NASCAR’s 26race regular season, averaging a pedestrian 14.2-place finish with only three top 5s. Then the Chase for the Championship hit and, inexplicably, Stewart and his team have come alive. Stewart won his second straight race — the second of the Chase — in the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway on Sunday, and in the process, assumed the points lead. Stewart passed Clint Bowyer as Bowyer’s fuel cell ran dry with two laps remaining, reversing last season’s New Hampshire Chase outcome that saw Bowyer capitalize on Stewart’s empty gas tank. “It’s amazing that it’s happened like that,” Stewart said. “But Clint was one of the first guys that called last year and, as happy as he was that he won the race, he knew how disappointing it was for us. “You don’t want to win them that way (on fuel mileage) and you don’t want to see guys lose them that way. This is a sport that guys have a high level of respect for what happens and how it happens. To have a win get away from you that way, it’s disappointing for anybody. “We may not have been the best car at the end — Clint was just a tick better than us. I definitely did not know he was in a situation to worry about fuel. So the good thing ASP, Inc. Tony Stewart speeds to his second win in the Chase in the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. is Darian told us we were two, three laps to the good. I got to run hard all the way to the end.” To be fair, Stewart’s car was good enough to win the race, and having the mileage to get there was just icing on the cake. He finished second at New Hampshire in July to his Stewart-Haas Racing teammate, Ryan Newman, in a fuel-mileage duel, and won last week at Chicagoland under the same circumstances. However, the one car that may have been better than his was Jeff Gordon’s No. 24. Gordon led a racehigh 78 laps, but ran out of gas coming to pit road under green-flag pit stops with 70 laps remaining. It took the team valuable seconds to get the machine refired, and even then, they did not get the car full of fuel. That forced Gordon into conservation mode. He backed off down the stretch to avoid running out of gas and settled for a fourth-place finish. Brad Keselowski and Greg Biffle were second and third. “It’s a bit of a surprise we ran out under green,” Gordon said. “We were expecting to get a couple more laps. “We’re making great horsepower, but we’re not getting good fuel mileage. But Tony is figuring out a n Tony Stewart’s New Hampshire win was the 41st of his NASCAR Cup career, placing him in sole possession of 16th on the all-time wins list. He sits three victories shy of Bill Elliott in 15th. The win also vaulted him to the top of the Chase standings, which marks the first time the Columbus, Ind., native has led the playoff standings since his title year in 2005. However, no driver leading the standings after the second race of the Chase has gone on to win the championship. n NASCAR will implement two rule changes for next month’s running of the Good Sam Club 500 Sprint Cup Series race at Talladega Superspeedway. The size of the restrictor plate that teams will use to prepare and practice for the race will increase by 1/64”. This will provide the teams with an additional seven to 10 horsepower. Additionally, the pressure relief valve on the cars’ cooling system will be recalibrated to reduce the pressure by approximately eight pounds per square inch from last April’s Cup way to do it, so give those guys credit — those guys have the same engines we have and we have to do a better job at it. I have to do a better job at it.” Defending five-time champion Jimmie Johnson got into a fender war with Kyle Busch with 21 laps remaining. Although neither wrecked, something in Johnson’s steering system was bent, and he finished 18th. “Today we just didn’t have the speed,” Johnson, who is 29 points behind Stewart, said. “And track position was so important and we didn’t have some pit calls go our way.” Johnson’s main competition last season, Denny Hamlin, had his second straight frustrating race. His No. 11 Toyota ran out of gas with three laps to go, despite the fact his crew chief, Mike Ford, assured him they could make it the distance. He finished 29th and, after a 31st-place showing last week, is 66 points out of the Chase lead and all but eliminated. As for the points leader, though, his faith is renewed. “These guys have never quit,” Stewart said. “These guys have never given up and we got a shot at this thing.” race at Talladega. Also, teams will not be allowed to grease the bumpers of their cars at the 2.66mile tri-oval. Recently, teams had used all number of lubricants on the bumpers of the cars so that when two cars “bump drafted,” the bumpers would slide off each other, avoiding a spin. These measures appear to be the first steps by the sanctioning body to discourage the two-car “tandem” drafts witnessed in recent plate-race events, and returning to the traditional “pack drafts” at Daytona and Talladega. n If Michael Waltrip Racing signs Clint Bowyer for the 2012 season — which is expected — look for the operation to stay at three teams. Currently, JTG-Daugherty Racing houses its cars out of the MWR shop, in essence making it MWR’s third team. However, JTG-Daugherty’s No. 47 car, driven by Bobby Labonte, may well end its relationship with MWR at season’s end. It is expected to look to align itself with another team for 2012.

It’s defense, however, is ranked as the best in the country. The Spartans are listed No. 1 in total defense in the nation heading into their Big Ten opener at Ohio State on Saturday. It’s a point of pride, but nothing more; there are too many games left on the schedule. “You can sit there and say, ‘OK, this is what we’ve done thus far in four games; let’s move to the fifth game and see if we can continue doing it’,” Spartans coach Mark Dantonio said. “It should give our players a sense of confidence.” The Spartans (3-1) are giving up 172.25 yards a game. Alabama is second at 184, followed by Central Florida (190), Virginia Tech (231) and Florida (232). (LSU, considered by many to have a defense chocked with NFL first-round draft picks, is 20th at 289 yards a game against a much more difficult schedule.)

They’re going to put pressure on you, whether it’s with four, five or six men. I think we understand that. How we handle it will be the key.” Ohio State left guard Jack Mewhort said Spartans’ game film is like watching a horror movie. “I’ve been watching a lot of film. They’ve got good players,” he said. “They don’t do as much stuff as we’ve seen with other teams but that’s because they’ve got good guys who can play more straight up. We’re preparing for that.” Granted, Michigan State’s defense hasn’t exactly been tested by top-10 teams. It held Florida Atlantic to 48 yards of offense, Central Michigan to 112 and Football Championship Subdivision Youngstown State to 254. In the Spartans’ only loss, a 31-13 setback at Notre Dame, the Fighting Irish picked up 358 yards. The Spartans are eighth in the nation in scoring defense (11 points a game). “Thus far we’ve played well on defense,” Dantonio said. “But in the end, it’s the points you give up. We can’t forget about points you give up is the ultimate — which we’re doing well in that, too.” Linebacker Max Bullough with 24 tackles, linebacker Denicos Allen (five tackles for a loss), “star” (a hybrid of a defensive back and linebacker) Chris Norman (18 tackles), strong safety Isaiah Lewis (two interceptions) and tackle Jerel Worthy (the team’s top pass rusher) lead the Michigan State defense. The Spartans also lead all of the Football Bowl Subdivision in pass defense, allowing just 101 yards a game. The unit will try to apply as much heat as possible to Ohio State’s true freshman quarterback, Braxton Miller, who is making his second collegiate start on Saturday. The Buckeyes are last in the Big Ten in total offense (341 yards a game). “We’ve got to find more balance,” said Fickell, whose offense is 39th in the nation running the ball, 110th (of 120 teams) in passing and ranks 91st overall when it comes to yardage. “That’s not always easy to do. We’re going to continue to tweak those things, find different ways we can do what we do, get better at them.” The Buckeyes have had success on the ground, with tailbacks Jordan Hall, Carlos Hyde and Rod Smith and Miller each rushing for at least 74 yards in a game so far. “They’re going to run the football,” Dantonio said flatly. If the Buckeyes want to deprive the Spartans of that No. 1 ranking on the defensive side, they’re going to have to find a way to hang on to the ball and grind out yards. “They’ve definitely got some players and some playmakers on defense,” Ohio State tight end Reid Fragel said. “It’ll be interesting to see how we match up with them.” ___ Rusty Miller can be reached at http:// twitter.com/rustymillerap RECREATIONAL VEHICLES Lots Apartments/Townhouses Rentals Medical ATVs For Rent Mobile Home Lot on St. Rt 775 also Camper Space on St Rt 141.

Rosier led the net attack with eight kills, followed by Westfall, Riley Nibert, Mollie Smith and Rachel Morris with five kills apiece. Westfall and Nibert also had three blocks and one block, respectively. Shriver added a team-best 23 assists. Tracy Roberts led the hosts with six kills, followed by Kaci Bryant with one kill.
