Sound odd? It's not. In making the New England Patriots work hard for a 38-35 win on Dec. 29 that capped a perfect regular season, the Giants proved to themselves that they cguld compete with anybody. That should prove extremely valuable a week from Sunday, when New York ( 13-6) gets another crack at the PatriQts (18-0) in the NFL title game in Glendale, Ariz. "We had played in some tough games and had some bad weather conditions the couple weeks before, and we weren't playing our best football, and all of a sudden that week we had a great mind-set," Eli Manning said. "We were going in to try to beat an undefeated team and we played good football. We gave ourselves a shot to win; we fell short, but it go_t our confidence going." · In the ensuing three weeks on the road, the Giants beat the Buccaneers 24-14, knocked off the Cowboys in Dallas 21-17, and overcame Brett Favre and frigid temperatures in Green )3ay to beat the Packers 23-20 in overtime. "It got us playing good football, it got us back in a rhythm and from then on we have been on a hot streak," Manning added. "We have been playing great football and finding ways to win." What made the performance in the loss to the Patriots so 'memorable: New York had nothing at stake in the game at Giants Stadium. Win or lose, the Giants were locked into a wild-card playoff game at Tampa. There was nothing to gain and everything to lose, especially if players got hurt. That's exactly what happened to three staners: linebacker Kawika Mitchell (knee), cornerback Sam Madison (stomach) and center Shaun O'Hara (knee). . Mitchell saw ' limited action the following week. 0' Hara missed the Buccaneers game and Madison didn't play again until last weekend.

Thought for Today: 'The price of justice is eteroal pub1icity." - Arnold Bennett, English poet, author and critic When it comes to religion. modern Americans think religious beliefs are good, but they tend to worry about beliefs that affect other people. As a rule. religious words are· safer than rei igious actions. Consider these numbers from a new Ellison Research study that shows surprising ' support - on the left and right, among believers and skeptics - for freedom of expression when it corpes to words and sy mbols. An overwhelming 90 percent of adults agreed that faith groups· should be allowed to rent public property, such as a school gym. if laws give. nonreligious groups the sa me right. Asked about allowing a · moment of silence in p\lblic school~. 89 percent said that was fine . Another 8ll percent said teachers should have the right to wear jewelry. such as a cross or a Star of David, m pub Iic-school classes .. "There is a lot of unity out there about these kinds of issues;" said Ron Sellers, president of the research firm in Phoenix. "But the specifics do matter.

Then again, 44 percent agreed that "Christians get on my nerves." . "There is a sense in our culture that it is acceptable to believe in anything spiritual, as long as it makes you a better person and helps you find peace," said Ed Stetzei, leader of the LifeWay Research team. "One's faith .only becomes a problem when that belief actually makes claims that contradict the faith of others.n .In an age of "I'm OK, you're OK" spirituality, he added, "American spirituality has glorified 'searching' for spiritual meaning but de-emphasized 'finding.' ln other words, it is good to be looking for spirituality, but it is intolerant to actually believe you have found a right faith .... Intolerance i~ defined to' mean actually believing that your faith is the correct one. · (Terry Mattingly is director of the Washington Journalism Center at the Council for Christian Colleges 'and Universities and leads the GetRe/igion.org project to study religion and . the news. ) divide, with only 52 percent ag reeing that religious groups should be able to enforce their own doctrines among their own members .

Of particular value to us, not only personally but our world as well, is the fact of God's. fathomless compassion for people. Consider well how Jesus' earthly ministry was chmacterized by tenderly intervening in the needs of people. He was in fact demonstrating the heart of Hi s Father in heaven as He taught, healed, forgave and encouraged people who were distraught, disowned, disturbed and despairing .. . Here in the pivotal turning point of all history was . the fulcrum of creation itself, in the Person of the Son of God ... full of glorious holiness , infinite in wisdom and power, ·yet weeping and lamenting the spiritual needs of men and women on planet earth . His disciples standing by, witness to His compassion and mercy changing the· desperate straits of people no matter their gender, age, or rank, became conveyors of that same compassionas they deemed in later years their own lives worth giving up for the salvation of people whose destinies were spiritual destruction. Is it possible that we who are Christians today have forgotten Jes.us' mission? It was not social reformation (although such reformation can be the happy by-product of a people whose ~eart s are transformed). It was not political reorganization (although politics had become an unhappy circus of woeful duplicity and needed a major overhaul). Nor· was His mission to bring physical healing and the casting out of evil spirits (although He, in Hi s compassion, did these very things). His mission was "to seek and to save what was lost" (Luke 19:10 NIV). Jesus knows son.ething very important about our River Valley Ri ver Valley Apos,lolic Worship Center. 873 S. 3rd Me.. Middleport.

Colossians 3: 12- 13 ' , In today's world, it is all too easy to get offended; there seemingly is no shortage of rude or inconsiderate people in our dail y li ves, Sometimes we may even enjoy feeling the rancor of righteous indignation well up within us when we've been offended and so we hold on to these offenses. And of course, our fami ly and fri ends usually oblige us in affirming our right to be angry with · these nasty brutes. How ever, the problem with getting offended, and with holding on to these offen ses, is th at it neglects to treat the offender charitably, and it spoil s our ex perience. We don't know why the girl at the check-out counter is irritable; perhaps she is having problems at home, or has a .boyfriend who mistreats her. Therefore, instead of tradin g barbs with her, wh y not offer her a smi le and say a quid prayer for her?

The Dally Sentinel • Page A7 WORSIJJP GOD THIS WEEK Ftllowship Apostolfe future . And what He knows about our future ' fuels His passion to reach out to the lost in compassion.' He knows that hves without Christ are doomed to spiritual destruction, a far worse fate than even the most try·ing of physical circumstances which are only temporary (see Mark 9:43-48). So Jesus Himself strove passionately to reach the lost, even to the point that He ·gave His life on the cross so that the spiritually "lost could be found" and the spiritually "blind may be made to see," how do we as Christians measure up? Do we share in His sorrow ? Do we take to heart the knowledge that hell is the final destination of many of our neighbors, co-workers, friends and family members? Jesus grieved over the impending desolation of Jerusalem, . approaching because of their refusal to receive Him for Who He is. Jesus' heart ached over the spiritual need of men and women, boys and girls, because they were (and are) "harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd" (Matthew 9:36b NIV). . Jesus' sorrow over the spiritual lostness of billions of people, today has not diminished nor gone cold. His Spirit is even (Thorn Mollohan and his now moving throughout the world, working to bring family have ministered itt the lost home to faith in ·southern Ohio the past 12Christ.

BALTIMORE (AP)- Two very different congregations came together last Sunday in Baltimore for a joint service to honor the birth of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. The Baltimore Hebrew Congregation held a communal celebration with the members of First Mount Olive Free Will Baptist Church, who have been meeting for Sunday services at the temple because. their own church in West Baltimore was www.mydallysentlnel.com 2008 . Peter 3:9b NIV). And as you engage thi s quality by reflecting on it, digesting it, and taking it up as your own, you will remember that Jesus' knowledge of what · the future holds for someone who has not ' received Him as Savior and Lord moved Him to compassionately reach out to the lost. We also have been given a glimpse of the future and must also allow His passion to become our passion . · Jesus said, "I tell you the truth, whoever hears My Word and believes Him (die Father) Who sent Me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life" (John 5:24 NIV). If you have "crossed over from death to life," then will you not now allow the holy and tender compassion of your Savior swell in your heart and move you ·to share your hope with others? In addition to the things for which you pray that are only "temporary" since they perhaps last only as long as this physical life lasts, will you not also add to your prayer list the "forever" needs of others, inter.ceding on their behalf for the power of God to soften their hearts to the truth of His Gospel? ;rake up your post today as a "pray-er" (that is to say, "interceder") for others' spiritual needs and believ.e that God can tame the wildest lives, breakthrough to the hardest of heart,s, and speak through the most deaf of . spiritual ears.

NELSONVILLE -The U.S. Fo'rest Service's top official for the Wayne National Forest in southeastern Ohio officially announced her retirement today to be effective at the end of Fe~ruary. Forest Supervisor Mary O' Brien Reddan began her work on the Wayne National Forest iri sou!heastern Ohio in November 2000, taking responsibility for natural resource activities conducted on agencyadministered land within the proclamation boundary of the forest. Forest programs include recreation; heritage preservation; watershed and central hardwol'ld forest restoration; -wildlife management; min. erals; special-uses; and a pro-active land acquisition Page AS Mary O'Brien Reddan program. Although she grew up on a farm in Ohio, Reddan's natural resources career began in 1977 in New Mexico where she did recreation and landscape- level planning and environmental work for the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). She went on to serve as a line officer on an 11-rnillion acre district in central · Nevada before moving to the BLM Nevada Stat"e Office and finally the BLM Washington Office. Reddan joined the Forest Service in 1992, serving on the Washington Office Ecosystem Management . staff and the Allegheny National Forest as acting forest supervisor prior to her Wayne National Forest assignment. Reddan, a U.S. Air Force veteran, graduated in 1979 from New Mexico State · University, College of Agriculture, where . she · receive.d a Bachelor of Science in agricultural economics. She and her husband Patrick live in Athens, Ohio, and own and manage a farm north of Dayton, Ohio. Their two adult children live in Texas and Delaware. "It has been a real high point of my career to serve on the Wayne National Forest with 1ts many dedicated employees and extraordinary partners. The fact that everyone is concentrated on conservation of the natural resources makes it the most enjoyable job I've ever had," said Reddan. Reddan and her husband plan to rnpve to 1?ayton this spring to s.pend more time on their farm. A new forest supervisor is expected to be named later this year.

JEAN:--<EITE, Pa.- Dan Marino. · Jue Montana. Johnny Unitas. Joe Namath. George Blanda and Jim Kelly earned Pittsburgh and ib environs the nickname of the Cradle of Quarterbacks. Next up'1 It may very well be Terrelle Pryor. whose high school career dwarfed those of all the stars that pre· ceded him .in one of the nation's most competitive and closely watched fo•>tball regions. ·· Pryor. a 6-foot-6, 225pound bundle of talent, is the l;uest in a lengthy line of exceptional players from western Pennsylvania that also includes Tony Dorsett, LaVar Arrington and Bill Fralic. "Nut in my lifetime have I >een a p.layer like Terrelle. and I' vc watched football for 40 years." said Ray Rci11.. his coach at Jeannette High School. "When you're great, you're great. He could compete at any level." Reitz. who saw Dorsett ih high sd10ol, isn't alone in tossing out such praise for the on ly player in Pennsylvania high school history to rush for more than -+,000 yards and throw for more than 4,000 in a career. He finished with 4.250 yards rushing and 4.249 passing. Pryor has already won several national player of the year .twards. He was the MVP ol· the nationally televised U.S. Army AllAmerican Bowl ga me in San Antonio earlier this month. He is also the No. !-rated player by nearly every major recruiti ng service. Pryor is special for another reason. too: Only two weeks from NCAA Division 1-A national letter of intent day. Pryor is uncommitted - making him the object of one of the most intense coast-to-coast recruiting competitions in recent years. The reasons why are obvious. Pryor's size, speed, arm strength , accekration and ath leticism are uncommon ror a quarterback so young. Watching him p'!ay high sch\ml football was much like watching LeBron James play Ohio high school basketball : He was so much better than those around him, it was like a man playing amGng boys. Thi s past season, Pryorhad · 3,788 yards of total offense, rushing for I ,899 yards and passing for I ,889 on a 16-0 team that scored a state-record 860 points, or I05 more than the previous record. Pryor ran for 33 touchdowns and threw for 23, averaging a touchdown every four times he touched the ball. No wonder why college coach after college coach has told Pryor the same thing: Go to that coach's school, and it automatically becomes a national title contender. He is looking at Michigan, Ohio State, LSU and Oregon, but schools fre~uently fall on and off the · hst. · "He's a program changer. If you get him, you're going to get a lot of other ~reat athletes to follow," Renz said. How good an athlete is Pryor? Despite having no preseason practice, he had 24 points, II rebounds, six dunks, four blocked shots and five steals in his first basketball game this sea,on, only four days aft~r his !Tnal football game. Wliile Pryor competed in the second smallest of Pennsylvania's four classes, he has played basketball against players from those schools and dominated. Few recruiters who have watched him doubt he would have done the same thing in foot. ball. · Two major recruiting sites, Superprep.com ' and Rivals.com, list him No. l nationally and compare him to former Texas quarterback Vince Young for his ability to make as many plays with his legs as with his arm. At a recent pep rally honoring Jeannette for being ranked No. 5 nationally by Maxpreps.com, Pryor was clearly tiring of the recruit· ing pressure. Assistant coaches from Penn State and Ohio State were in the room, well aware that Pryor was traveling to Michigan for an official visit two days later. Before then, he had another basketball game to play and hundreds of text messages to plow through. Despite the ban on coaches sending text messages, dozens of messages from recruiting services, fans, friends and outsiders who somehow obtain his number pile up on Pryor's cell phone tf he leaves it off for more than a few hours. "It's not overwhelming," Pryor said of the intense recruiting. "I was forewarned about it, but I wasn't prepared for it- I haven't been through it before, so I couldn't be prepared." Juggling an all-state basketball career - he is closing in on 2,000 points for his career- and recruiting trips is also proving difficult. "It is tiring," Pryor said. "''m just trying to get it over with and move on. Of course, you're looking. at all the top colleges in the country, so it's going to be hard." Reitz offers another reason for Pryor's indecision: his difficulty in saying'no. Pryor is inherently shy, his coach said, and is aware he will disappoint many · coaches with his final decision. "All this attention is embarrassing to him because he is such a good kid," Reitz said. , Pryor may be the most recruited player in western Pennsylvania since Washington High running back Brian Davis, a national high school player of the year in the mid 1980s. Davis' career at Pitt ended quickly because of academic problem s, and he never pla~ed college . football agam. No one who knows Pryor expects that to happen to him. · Pryor has a 3.4 gradepoint average, goes to class and is being mentored by Steelers quarterback Charlie Batch, who met him through a relative and is helping guide him through the recruiting process. Pryor's parents split up years ago and neither currently Ii ves in Jeannette, which is 25 miles east nf' Pittsburgh. Pryor has lived with his godfather throughout high school, yet has managed to ·stay grounded and focused with his · life, school work and his athletic career. "I don't think everybddy will know where he's going for sure until signing day {Feb. 6)," said Batch. who went to Eastern Michigan and. thus has no personal stake in where Pryor winds up. Pryor· is one player 'that doesn't need one nf those prerequisite highlight DVDs to show off to his recruiters. Every game provided highlights, from the 53-yard touchdown run on his first carry of the season, during a 60-0 victory against Brownsville in which he was never tackled, to his final carry, a 4 I -yard TD FERGUSON SA:-.1 DIEGO - Tiger Wood> delivered the score he expected in his 2008 debut, just not the game. Despite playing from the ,and. rough and behind a few trees early in his round, Woods began a much-antictpated season Thursday with a 5-under 67 on the tougher Soul h Course at Torrey Pines. That left him two 'hots behind Troy Matteson, and gave him a strong presence on the leaderboard as he goes for his fourth straight title in the . Buick Invitational. "It wasn't pretty off the tee. but I hung in there," Woods said . "Shooting 67 is always going to feel pretty good on the South Course." lma ~ ine how it felt for Mittte,on. . · He ran off five birdies in a six-hole stretch on the back nine. then fini!-hed his round wi th consecutive birdies to become . the first player since Davis Love Ill in 2000 to hal'e. the first-round lead while playing the South. "I won 't top that · for awhile," Matteson said . Brad Adamonis had a 66 (m the North Cottrse, which is 600 yards shorter and played more than two 'trokes easier. Rory Sabbatini , Stuart Appleby and Kevin Streelman, who began the da y as the third alternate, were in the group at 67 with Wood;. They all played on the North . which is where Matte., on and Woods play on Friday. Phil Mickel"tn opened hi; season with a 70 on the North. Matteson was I I shots better than his last trip around the South Course. That was the final round a year a~o, when he played alongstde Woods and watched the world's No. l player turn · an ordinary round into a winner. Maybe someone of that rubbed off on Matteson. "That's an experience tl)at any player would remember," Matteson said. "Anytime you get paired with Tiger, it's very interesting · from a crowd standpoint, from a what-he-does standpoint. It's just pretty neat to see the guy shoot 66 on Sunday to win." Woods, who hasn 't played since winning his Target World Challenge by seven shots on Dec. 16, wasn't the only person returning lei work. · Golf Channel anchor .Kelly Tilghman was back in the booth after a two-week suspension for jokingly suggesting young players want· ing to take on Woods should "lynch him in a back alley." She recorded an apology that opened the telecast. That seemed to end a month's worth of troublesome news in golf outside the ropes - Tilghman's suspension, the firing of a magazine editor for putting a noose on the cover, and the death of popular· caddie Steve Duplantis in Del Mar early Tuesday. · But maybe there's more tension to follow.

North, with two four-card majors, used Stayman to try to lind a 4·4 major-suit fit. When South Was not ashamed to shaw his four-card heart suit, North jumped to game. Note that three no-trump has no chance. \ In four hearts you need tha trumps to split 3-2. And · assuming they do, you should see fiOJe losers: two hearts, one diamond and two clubs. The red-suit losers are unavoidable, so you must ruff your two low clubs an the board. That looks easy enough, but what is the lurking danger? You will go down il East can overruflthe . dummy from an initial holding. of only two trumps. Then you would lose three hearts and one diamond.• You need to. draw two rounds of trumps.before taking the club tuffs. But Wyou play the ace and another ~eart, West will win with his queen and cash the heart king,- holding you to one dub ruff. The right line, after winning the first trick, is to duck a round of trurll's. Lead a low heart and play tow lrom lhe other hand.
