The site has more than

The ordinance requires a
third and final reading as
well as afinal vote before it
becomes effective.
When village officials
were .asked if Racine was
anticipating the develop-

ment of a hotel or bed and
breakfast they said "no" and
that the ordinance ·was simply "for the future " by taking into account the economic development proposed for the area.
The ordinance would
require hotels to pay the village a three percent tax on
the rents charged . .
A spokesperson from
TRIAD, lhe village's engineering firm, reported on
developing a project for the
village to replace its outdat-

ed water! ines, many· of
which date back to the
1950's. He guessed the project would cost between
$500.000-$700,000 but until
he came up with the spec ifications he couldn't be sure.
He hoped to have specific
designs later this month and
added TRIAD would forgo

Bv ANDREW TAYLOR
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER
· WASHINGTON - The
record $3.1 trillion budget
proposed by President Bush
on Monday would produce
eyepopping federal deficits,
despite his attempts to .
impose politically wrenching
curbs on Medicare and eliminate scores of popular
domestic programs.
The Pentagon would
receive a $36 billion, 8 per- .
cent boost for the 2009 budget year · beginning Oct. I,
even as programs aimed at
the poor would be cut back
· or eliminated. Half of
domestic Cabinet departments would see their budgets cut outright.
Slumping revenues and the
cost of an economic rescue
package will combine to pro-.
duce a huge jump in the
deficit to $41 0 billion this
year and $407 billion in
2009, the White House says,
just shy of the record $413
billion set four years ago.
But even those figures are
optimistic since they depend
on rosy econornic forecasts
and leave out the full costs of
the war in Iraq. The White
House predicts the economy
will grow at a 2. 7 percent clip
this year, far higher than congressional and private economists expect, and the administration s $70 billion figure
for military operations in Iraq
and Afghanistan is simply a
placeholder until the next,
president takes office. ·
Bush's Jame-d~ck budget
plan is likely to be ignored by
Congress, which is controlled
by Democrats and already
looking ahead to November
elections. His long-term pro,
jections are mostly academic
since he's leaving office next
January.
The president forecasts a
$48 billion surplus by 2012,
keeping a promise he made
two years ago when strong
revenue predictions made it
look far easier. Now, he'~

Dear Annie: I snooped
on my boyfriend's computer and found an e-mail to a
female friend' of his who is
20 years hi s junior. It contained inappropriate offers
of a full-body massage. I
don't think this woman is
truly interested in him , but
she seems to enjoy the
attention. He has sen t sug gestive e-mails to her
before and I haven't said
anything, but this is the
last straw. He swore their
relationship was strictly
business, including their
occasional lunch meetings.
My impression 'is, he has a
thing for her and keeps
hoping she will return his
affection.
I am furious and intend
to end our relationship, but
I don't want to be the bad
guy. I want his parents to
know what kind of person
he really is, but he lies a
lot and will deny the whole
thing . Should I let him
know I snooped and for ward the , mail to his parents? - Ticked in South

Dear Ticked: Please
,don't. His parents may be
unhappy about their son's
conduct, but they will forgive him. You , however,
will look like a bitter,
vengeful shrew. It's not
worth the momentary satisfaction.
Dear
Annie:
Last
December, we moved into
a new home . We put a carbon monoxide detector on
both floors.
We woke up an hour
after going to bed on
Christmas Eve to a loud
alarm from our carbon
monoxide detector. My
husband thought it was
malfunctioning , but when
the second detector went
off, I called 9- 1- 1.. We

were told to open windows
and go outside, and the fire
department ca~J~e
and
turned off our furnace. A
subsequent
inspection
found nothing wrong with
the furnace. We had several sim ilar episodes, and
each time , we turned off
the furnace and opened all
the windows.
Finally, a new inspector
did so met hing different.
Instead of turning 011 the
heater to see if it was emi tting ca rbon monoxide; he
left it off and inspected the
inside with a light and ·a
mirror. He found thre e
cracks and explained that
when we turned on the
heater, the cracks allowed
th.e carbon monoxide to
come into the venting. system. Once it heated up, the
cracks closed due to the
expansion of the metal.
We had our furnace
replaced· and all is fine
now. But I would hate to
think so me other family
might not wake up one
morning. Please warn
Safe- ' in
them.
California
Dear Safe: You just did.
Thanks for pointing out the
life-saving benefit of carbon monoxide· detectors -and persistence in getting
to the root of the problem.

Bv ANDREW TAYLOR
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER
· WASHINGTON - The
record $3.1 trillion budget
proposed by President Bush
on Monday would produce
eyepopping federal deficits,
despite his attempts to .
impose politically wrenching
curbs on Medicare and eliminate scores of popular
domestic programs.
The Pentagon would
receive a $36 billion, 8 per- .
cent boost for the 2009 budget year · beginning Oct. I,
even as programs aimed at
the poor would be cut back
· or eliminated. Half of
domestic Cabinet departments would see their budgets cut outright.
Slumping revenues and the
cost of an economic rescue
package will combine to pro-.
duce a huge jump in the
deficit to $41 0 billion this
year and $407 billion in
2009, the White House says,
just shy of the record $413
billion set four years ago.
But even those figures are
optimistic since they depend
on rosy econornic forecasts
and leave out the full costs of
the war in Iraq. The White
House predicts the economy
will grow at a 2. 7 percent clip
this year, far higher than congressional and private economists expect, and the administration s $70 billion figure
for military operations in Iraq
and Afghanistan is simply a
placeholder until the next,
president takes office. ·
Bush's Jame-d~ck budget
plan is likely to be ignored by
Congress, which is controlled
by Democrats and already
looking ahead to November
elections. His long-term pro,
jections are mostly academic
since he's leaving office next
January.
The president forecasts a
$48 billion surplus by 2012,
keeping a promise he made
two years ago when strong
revenue predictions made it
look far easier. Now, he'~

Dear Annie: I snooped
on my boyfriend's computer and found an e-mail to a
female friend' of his who is
20 years hi s junior. It contained inappropriate offers
of a full-body massage. I
don't think this woman is
truly interested in him , but
she seems to enjoy the
attention. He has sen t sug gestive e-mails to her
before and I haven't said
anything, but this is the
last straw. He swore their
relationship was strictly
business, including their
occasional lunch meetings.
My impression 'is, he has a
thing for her and keeps
hoping she will return his
affection.
I am furious and intend
to end our relationship, but
I don't want to be the bad
guy. I want his parents to
know what kind of person
he really is, but he lies a
lot and will deny the whole
thing . Should I let him
know I snooped and for ward the , mail to his parents? - Ticked in South

Dear Ticked: Please
,don't. His parents may be
unhappy about their son's
conduct, but they will forgive him. You , however,
will look like a bitter,
vengeful shrew. It's not
worth the momentary satisfaction.
Dear
Annie:
Last
December, we moved into
a new home . We put a carbon monoxide detector on
both floors.
We woke up an hour
after going to bed on
Christmas Eve to a loud
alarm from our carbon
monoxide detector. My
husband thought it was
malfunctioning , but when
the second detector went
off, I called 9- 1- 1.. We

were told to open windows
and go outside, and the fire
department ca~J~e
and
turned off our furnace. A
subsequent
inspection
found nothing wrong with
the furnace. We had several sim ilar episodes, and
each time , we turned off
the furnace and opened all
the windows.
Finally, a new inspector
did so met hing different.
Instead of turning 011 the
heater to see if it was emi tting ca rbon monoxide; he
left it off and inspected the
inside with a light and ·a
mirror. He found thre e
cracks and explained that
when we turned on the
heater, the cracks allowed
th.e carbon monoxide to
come into the venting. system. Once it heated up, the
cracks closed due to the
expansion of the metal.
We had our furnace
replaced· and all is fine
now. But I would hate to
think so me other family
might not wake up one
morning. Please warn
Safe- ' in
them.
California
Dear Safe: You just did.
Thanks for pointing out the
life-saving benefit of carbon monoxide· detectors -and persistence in getting
to the root of the problem.

TODAY IN HISTORY
Today is Shrove Tuesday, Feb. 5, the 36th day of 2008.
There are 330 days left in the year.
Today's Highlight in History: · .
On Feb. 5, 1631, the co-founder of Rhode Island, Roger
Williams, and his wife, Mary, arrived in Boston from
England.
On this daie:
In 1811 , George, Prince of Wales, was named the Prince
Regent due to the insanity of his father, Britain's King
George lll.
In 1887. Verdi's opera "Otdlo" premiered at La Scala.
. In 1897, the Indiana House of Representatives passed,
67-0, a measure redefining the method for determining the
area· of a circle, which included altering the value of pi.
(The bill died in the Indiana Senate.)
In 1917, Congress passed, over President Woodrow
Wilson's veto, an immigration act severely curtailing the
iriflux of Asians.
In 1917, Mexico's ~onstitution was adopted.
In 1937, President Franklin Roosevelt proposed increasing the number of justices on the U.S. Supreme Court; critics accused Roosevelt of attempting to "pack" the high
court.
In 1973, services were held at Arlington National
Cemetery for Army Lt. Col. William B. Nolde, the last official American combat casualty before the Vietnam ceasefire.
In 1983, former Nazi Gestapo official Klaus Barbie,
expelled from Bolivia, was brought to Lyon, France, to
stand trial. (He was convicted and sentenced to life in
prison - he died in 1991.)
In 1988, the Arizona House impeached Gov. Evan
Mecham, setting the stage for his trial in the state Senate,
where he was convicted of obstructing justice and misusing
funds.
..
Ten years ago: Democratic fund-raiser Yah Lin "Charlie"
Trie pleaded not guilty in Washington to charges he had
raised illegal donations to buy influence in high places.
(Trie 'pleaded guilty in May 1999 to a felony count and a
misdemeanor and was sentenced later that ·year to four
months of home detention and three years' probation.)
Five years ago: Secretary of State Colin Powell urged the
U.N. Security Council to move against Saddam Hussein,
saying Iraq had failed to disarm, was harboring terrorists ·
and was hiding behind a "web of lies.'' Longtime CBS
News radio reporter Larry LeSueur died in Washington at
age 93.
One year ago: President Bush unveiled a $2.9 trillion
budget, which proposed a big spending increase for the
Pentagon while pinching domestic programs.
NASA astronaut Lisa Nowak was arrested in Orlando,
Fla., accused of trying to kidnap a perceived rival for the
affections of a space shuttle pilot.
Thought for Today: "Politics in America is the binding
Secular religion." - Theodore H. White, Amerjcan politi• cal writer (1915-1986 ).

Despite dismal Qational
and international poll ratings, a hostile Congress and
a
sagging
economy,
President Bush enters his
last. yea,r in office expressing
total confidence that he's
been doing the right things.
He told me in an Oval
Office
interview · that
"absolutely,
we
a.re
stronger" as a nation than
when he took office and
that, even in areas where he
failed to get w~at he wanted
- as in Social Security and
immigration reform - his
ideas eventually will prevail.
He said his biggest disappointment as president was
his inability to be a "uniter
not a divider," and he agreed
that politics is "polarized."
On the other hand, he was
adamant that he would never
compromise on some of the
principles - such as cutting
taxes and aggressively promoting democracy - that
have made him so polarizing.
"It's one thing to compromise on pieces of legislation
to get something done," he
said. "It's another to compromise on principle which I have refused to do.
People say, 'Oh, you must
be a uniter ·by compromising
your beli~fs.'
"There are certain things
on which 1 will not compromise. ·I don't see how you
can be president if you don't
stand strong on your principles. There's too much
incoming.
"There's too many complicated decisions, too much
flattery, too much criticism,
too many polls, too many
focus groups. And the president has to say: 'Here is the
ground on which I stand."'
Although even top White
House aides acknowledged
that Bush's last State of the
Union address contained no
bold new initiatives, Bush
said, "I .did call on Congress
to do some pretty substantial
things, if you think about it,"
including a doubling of his
global HIV/AIDS initiative,
the economic stimulus package and a $300 million "Pell
Grant for Kids" to save
inner-city parochial schools
as an alternative to failing
public schools.

TODAY IN HISTORY
Today is Shrove Tuesday, Feb. 5, the 36th day of 2008.
There are 330 days left in the year.
Today's Highlight in History: · .
On Feb. 5, 1631, the co-founder of Rhode Island, Roger
Williams, and his wife, Mary, arrived in Boston from
England.
On this daie:
In 1811 , George, Prince of Wales, was named the Prince
Regent due to the insanity of his father, Britain's King
George lll.
In 1887. Verdi's opera "Otdlo" premiered at La Scala.
. In 1897, the Indiana House of Representatives passed,
67-0, a measure redefining the method for determining the
area· of a circle, which included altering the value of pi.
(The bill died in the Indiana Senate.)
In 1917, Congress passed, over President Woodrow
Wilson's veto, an immigration act severely curtailing the
iriflux of Asians.
In 1917, Mexico's ~onstitution was adopted.
In 1937, President Franklin Roosevelt proposed increasing the number of justices on the U.S. Supreme Court; critics accused Roosevelt of attempting to "pack" the high
court.
In 1973, services were held at Arlington National
Cemetery for Army Lt. Col. William B. Nolde, the last official American combat casualty before the Vietnam ceasefire.
In 1983, former Nazi Gestapo official Klaus Barbie,
expelled from Bolivia, was brought to Lyon, France, to
stand trial. (He was convicted and sentenced to life in
prison - he died in 1991.)
In 1988, the Arizona House impeached Gov. Evan
Mecham, setting the stage for his trial in the state Senate,
where he was convicted of obstructing justice and misusing
funds.
..
Ten years ago: Democratic fund-raiser Yah Lin "Charlie"
Trie pleaded not guilty in Washington to charges he had
raised illegal donations to buy influence in high places.
(Trie 'pleaded guilty in May 1999 to a felony count and a
misdemeanor and was sentenced later that ·year to four
months of home detention and three years' probation.)
Five years ago: Secretary of State Colin Powell urged the
U.N. Security Council to move against Saddam Hussein,
saying Iraq had failed to disarm, was harboring terrorists ·
and was hiding behind a "web of lies.'' Longtime CBS
News radio reporter Larry LeSueur died in Washington at
age 93.
One year ago: President Bush unveiled a $2.9 trillion
budget, which proposed a big spending increase for the
Pentagon while pinching domestic programs.
NASA astronaut Lisa Nowak was arrested in Orlando,
Fla., accused of trying to kidnap a perceived rival for the
affections of a space shuttle pilot.
Thought for Today: "Politics in America is the binding
Secular religion." - Theodore H. White, Amerjcan politi• cal writer (1915-1986 ).

Despite dismal Qational
and international poll ratings, a hostile Congress and
a
sagging
economy,
President Bush enters his
last. yea,r in office expressing
total confidence that he's
been doing the right things.
He told me in an Oval
Office
interview · that
"absolutely,
we
a.re
stronger" as a nation than
when he took office and
that, even in areas where he
failed to get w~at he wanted
- as in Social Security and
immigration reform - his
ideas eventually will prevail.
He said his biggest disappointment as president was
his inability to be a "uniter
not a divider," and he agreed
that politics is "polarized."
On the other hand, he was
adamant that he would never
compromise on some of the
principles - such as cutting
taxes and aggressively promoting democracy - that
have made him so polarizing.
"It's one thing to compromise on pieces of legislation
to get something done," he
said. "It's another to compromise on principle which I have refused to do.
People say, 'Oh, you must
be a uniter ·by compromising
your beli~fs.'
"There are certain things
on which 1 will not compromise. ·I don't see how you
can be president if you don't
stand strong on your principles. There's too much
incoming.
"There's too many complicated decisions, too much
flattery, too much criticism,
too many polls, too many
focus groups. And the president has to say: 'Here is the
ground on which I stand."'
Although even top White
House aides acknowledged
that Bush's last State of the
Union address contained no
bold new initiatives, Bush
said, "I .did call on Congress
to do some pretty substantial
things, if you think about it,"
including a doubling of his
global HIV/AIDS initiative,
the economic stimulus package and a $300 million "Pell
Grant for Kids" to save
inner-city parochial schools
as an alternative to failing
public schools.

And there, in this cold, flat
statement, is the future of
many thousands more black
Africans in Darfur as the
never fully .sated .Janjaweed
savor all the rapes and murders to Gome - while their
leader, Hila!, stands proud as
an adviser to al-Bashir.
Is there any way, then, to
close down this holocaust in
the face of the intransigence
of Sudan? In October 2005,
the U.N. General Assembly
passed a "responsibility tu
protect" resolution holding
that if a sovereign member of ·
the United Nations is committing mass atroctlles
against it ·own citizens thereby failing its "responsibility to protect them" international forces have. the
right to go into that nation
and carry out that protection.
Since Sudan is the very
model of so criminal a
nation, there is ,a growing
movement among humanrights activists to implement
that resolution - short of
force - until, presumably,
force
is
necessary.
Otherwise, the 2005 U.N.
resolution
is
useless'.
Obviously, it won't be easy;
but there is even an advocacy
and research center to that
end at ,the Ralph Bunche
Institute of International
Studies at · the Graduate
Center of New York City
University as well as in
A~stralia, Sir Lanka and
Thailand. More in next

What is Lent? Why Should I Care?
BY KERRY Wooo

PASTOR, RACINE U.M. CHURCH

Appointed to
executive committee
a year. lt determines policy
and plans programs activities designed to carry out the
association's purposes.
The region membership is
comprised of 17 city districts, five exempted village
districts, 46 local districts,
nine vocational school districts and eight ESC's. There
are 400 board members and
over 119,000 students in the
district. Two general membership meetings are held
each year.

fats before Lent began.. Thus
began the tradition of "Fat
Tuesday" when all the final fats
were consumed in a tremendous
feast. The French tradition of
Mardi Gras expands the celebration idea far beyond the original
consumption of fats to include
many other indulgences. More
tame celebrations are 'hosted by
churches in the form of "Pancake
Suppers" which used up the butter
and oils.
•Ash Wednesday marks the ·first
day of Lent. Ashes were a biblical sign of repentance. Middle
Age Christians would go to their
priests for confession and receive
a mark on their foreheads made
with a mixture of ashes and palm
oil as a sign of their confession
and observan.ce of Lent. The
ashe' were made from burning the
palm branches used to celebrate
the previous year's Palm Sunday.
Today, churches from many
denominations will hold Ash
Wednesday worship services for
the same purpose.
So why should one observe
Lent'l What is there to be gained
by it? If one goes past the rituals
and reflects deeply on the meaning of those rituals, one can discover a very powerful spiritual
experience. Observing Lent can
be a way for Christians to deepen
their relationships with Jesus
Christ, furthering their appreciation for his actions 2000 years ago
and for what God is doing in them '
today. They can experience the
transforming power of the Holy
Spirit as they give up the things
that hinder their faith and take on
the things that encourage it.

Struggling White Falcons lose fifth-straight
game

BY GARY CLARK
SPORTS CORRESPONDENT

LOGAN, W.Va. - The
spiraling downturn by the
Wahama White Falcon basketball team continued its
downhill slide Saturday
afternoon afrer the Bend
Area t~am dropped its fifth
straight hardwood contest
following an 80-63 loss to
Matewan at Willie Akers
Arena in Logan.
The White Falcons shot a
disappointing 33 percent
from the floor and were
never in contention after a
young
Matewan
team
JUmped out to an early 9-0
advantage. The Tigers
turned 15 Falcon turnovers
into 26 points and held a.surprising 23-6 edge in fast
· break points wh1ch turned

out to be the contributing
factors in the Bend Area
teams sixth loss in its last
seven games.
. The recent decline of
Coa&lt;;,h James Toth's White
Falcon cage team is quickly
approaching epidemic proportions as Wahama saw its
once flashy 8-1 record dip to
9-7 on the 2007-08 ba&gt;ketball campaign. Matewan,
with just one senior on its I2
man varsity roster, improved
to I0-4 following the relatively easy victory over its
Mason County opponents.
Brandon Burgraff. a 5foot-! 0 junior guard for the
Tigers, weaved his way in
and around the porous White
Falcon defense for ·what
likely was a career high
offensive·
performance.

Burgraff totaled a game high
39 points on the day on 14 of
26 shooting from the floor
and eight of 10 free throws.
Burgraff received ample
offensive support from 6-3
junior Colton Copley with
19 tallies with 6-5 junior
center Matt Kennedy who
added 17 markers in the 17
point Matewan triumph.
The Tigers' decided height
advantage appeared to

fats before Lent began.. Thus
began the tradition of "Fat
Tuesday" when all the final fats
were consumed in a tremendous
feast. The French tradition of
Mardi Gras expands the celebration idea far beyond the original
consumption of fats to include
many other indulgences. More
tame celebrations are 'hosted by
churches in the form of "Pancake
Suppers" which used up the butter
and oils.
•Ash Wednesday marks the ·first
day of Lent. Ashes were a biblical sign of repentance. Middle
Age Christians would go to their
priests for confession and receive
a mark on their foreheads made
with a mixture of ashes and palm
oil as a sign of their confession
and observan.ce of Lent. The
ashe' were made from burning the
palm branches used to celebrate
the previous year's Palm Sunday.
Today, churches from many
denominations will hold Ash
Wednesday worship services for
the same purpose.
So why should one observe
Lent'l What is there to be gained
by it? If one goes past the rituals
and reflects deeply on the meaning of those rituals, one can discover a very powerful spiritual
experience. Observing Lent can
be a way for Christians to deepen
their relationships with Jesus
Christ, furthering their appreciation for his actions 2000 years ago
and for what God is doing in them '
today. They can experience the
transforming power of the Holy
Spirit as they give up the things
that hinder their faith and take on
the things that encourage it.

LOGAN, W.Va. - The
spiraling downturn by the
Wahama White Falcon basketball team continued its
downhill slide Saturday
afternoon afrer the Bend
Area t~am dropped its fifth
straight hardwood contest
following an 80-63 loss to
Matewan at Willie Akers
Arena in Logan.
The White Falcons shot a
disappointing 33 percent

Coa&lt;;,h James Toth's White
Falcon cage team is quickly
approaching epidemic proportions as Wahama saw its
once flashy 8-1 record dip to
9-7 on the 2007-08 ba&gt;ketball campaign. Matewan,
with just one senior on its I2
man varsity roster, improved
to I0-4 following the relatively easy victory over its
Mason County opponents.
Brandon Burgraff. a 5foot-! 0 junior guard for the
Tigers, weaved his way in
and around the porous White
Falcon defense for ·what
likely was a career high
offensive·
performance.

Burgraff totaled a game high
39 points on the day on 14 of
26 shooting from the floor
and eight of 10 free throws.
Burgraff received ample
offensive support from 6-3
junior Colton Copley with
19 tallies with 6-5 junior

Just last week, Southern

Trimble
fromPageBl
"We had some turnovers,
and we weren't able to convert on their turnovers so it
kind of put us behind little
by little." ,
Th e game was a foulfilled affair from start to finish. It broke up the flow .of
the game, especially in the
first quarter, making it difficult for either side to put up
points.
Just over four minutes
into the game, Trimble was
called for their.seventh foul,
putting the Lady Raiders
mto the bonus situation
early on. River Valley used
those one-and-one opportunities to take the lead.
With the quarter winding
down, they had a 7-4 advantage ;md plenty of mome·ntum, but the Lady Tomcats
hit their first three-point
field goal of the night to tie
it at seven-all. ,A late Lady
Raider foul put Trimble at
the line with under 10 seconds to go. Walton converted .one of the two attempts,
and River Valley trailed 8-7
after the first.
The Lady Raiders didn't
wast~ much .time: before
jumpmg back m front. Less
than 30 seconds into the
second they were up· 9·8.
But they would,n't score for
over three mmutes after
that, a~d the ~y Tomcats
made tt 13-9 with a pair of
· free th~ows and another
three-po~nter. .

A mmute later th~y
stretched tt to 18-11 with
one more f~om beyond the
~c and a qUick basket, ~oremg G•tt;nore to take a. timeout .w.Ith three mi!1Utes
remammg before halftime.

It would turn ·out to be a

very sound decision, as the
Lady Raiders scored the last
seven points of the second
quarter. The points were
spread out among Walburn,
Taylor, Brooke Marcum,
and Mackenzie Cluxton,
and the teams went to the
break tied at 18. Marcum
finished the half with a
team-high six points.
River Valley would get
behind early in the third
thanks to another Trimble
three-pointer. Though they
cut the deficit to one point
on two occasions, that ·was
as close as they'd come the
rest of the night.
Like in the first half,
Trimble got into foul trouble, but the Lady Raiders
didn't fully take advantage.
The Lady Tomcats . made
·three shots from long dislance in the third, including
a momentum stopper that
came with 40 seconds left
and put the visitors in .front
by seven, 33-26.

Lady Falcons ended their

to next season. Southern has
a make-up game tentatively
scheduled at home with
Eastern on February II .
Southern Coach Alan
Crisp said, "We played our
"A"-game tonight. We came
out with a tremendous level
of intensity, and I think that
was the big difference in the ·
game."
Just last week, Southern

Trimble
fromPageBl
"We had some turnovers,
and we weren't able to convert on their turnovers so it
kind of put us behind little
by little." ,
Th e game was a foulfilled affair from start to finish. It broke up the flow .of
the game, especially in the
first quarter, making it difficult for either side to put up
points.
Just over four minutes
into the game, Trimble was
called for their.seventh foul,
putting the Lady Raiders
mto the bonus situation
early on. River Valley used
those one-and-one opportunities to take the lead.
With the quarter winding
down, they had a 7-4 advantage ;md plenty of mome·ntum, but the Lady Tomcats
hit their first three-point
field goal of the night to tie
it at seven-all. ,A late Lady
Raider foul put Trimble at
the line with under 10 seconds to go. Walton converted .one of the two attempts,
and River Valley trailed 8-7
after the first.
The Lady Raiders didn't
wast~ much .time: before
jumpmg back m front. Less
than 30 seconds into the
second they were up· 9·8.
But they would,n't score for
over three mmutes after
that, a~d the ~y Tomcats
made tt 13-9 with a pair of
· free th~ows and another
three-po~nter. .

A mmute later th~y
stretched tt to 18-11 with
one more f~om beyond the
~c and a qUick basket, ~oremg G•tt;nore to take a. timeout .w.Ith three mi!1Utes
remammg before halftime.

It would turn ·out to be a

very sound decision, as the
Lady Raiders scored the last
seven points of the second
quarter. The points were
spread out among Walburn,
Taylor, Brooke Marcum,
and Mackenzie Cluxton,
and the teams went to the
break tied at 18. Marcum
finished the half with a
team-high six points.
River Valley would get
behind early in the third
thanks to another Trimble
three-pointer. Though they
cut the deficit to one point
on two occasions, that ·was
as close as they'd come the
rest of the night.
Like in the first half,
Trimble got into foul trouble, but the Lady Raiders
didn't fully take advantage.
The Lady Tomcats . made
·three shots from long dislance in the third, including
a momentum stopper that
came with 40 seconds left
and put the visitors in .front
by seven, 33-26.

would finish off the · game,
mostly from the foul line,
handlna River Valley a loss
in their regular-season
finale. Corfias had eight of

Crisp. "We had a different

This deal is a vartation on yesterday's

South, wilh lour-card hoarl support, converted to lour hearts.
Easl has played high-low in clubs, showing a doubleton. So you should cash
your club king. East &lt;lscards the spade
Now you must count lhe high-card
points. South promised 15-17 points.
Sinca lhore are 12 in tho dummy and

This deal is a vartation on yesterday's

South, wilh lour-card hoarl support, converted to lour hearts.
Easl has played high-low in clubs, showing a doubleton. So you should cash
your club king. East &lt;lscards the spade
Now you must count lhe high-card
points. South promised 15-17 points.
Sinca lhore are 12 in tho dummy and

Bob Kriight resigns midseason; son
will take over Texas Tech basketball
BY BETSY BLANEY
ASSOCIATED PRESS

LUBBOCK, Texas - Bob
Knight, known
much for
his fiery temper as his b&amp;sketball brilliance, resigned
Monday at Texas Tech,
· handing the team over to his
son.
It was a stunning midseason move by the winningest
men's coach in major college basketball, who gav\! no
hint a change was coming.
Pat Knight, a Red Raiders
assistant, was appointed his
father's successor in 2005.
"There's a transition that's
going to take place here
from me to Pat and I've
dwelt on this all year long ...
how it would be best for him
· and for the team and for
what we can do in the long
run to make this the best
thing for Texas Tech,"
Knight told the Lubbock
Avalanche-Journal, which
first reported the resigna·
tion.
The 67-year-old Knight
informed Texas Tech athlet·
ic director Gerald Myers of
his decision in a meeting
around noon Monday, Texas
Tech chancellor Kent Hance
told The Associated Press.
Kriight then called Hance
and told him.
"He's ready," Pat Knight
said during his weekly radio
show. "He's tired."
Hance said: "I · think Bob
is through with coaching. I
think he got to the point
where it wasn't fun fur him.
"He thought about it
Sunday all day and talked to
his wife' and decided 'This is
something I want to do."'
Knight told the news
paper he informed the team
before practice Monday. ·
The Red Raiders .beat
Oklahoma State 67-60 on
Saturday, giving Kni ght his
902nd victory. He won
national titles at Indiana in
1976, '81 and '87.
"I,. guess you can never be
sutpFised at some of the
things Bob does," former
UCLA coach Jnhn Wooden
told the AP. "I don't thi1\k

Knight arrived at Texas
Tech in March 2001, six
months after being fired by
1ndiana for what school officials there called a "pattern
of unacceptable behavior.".
NCAA president Myles
Brand the former Indiana
Unive~sity president wh.o
fired Knight, declined to
comment on the resignation,
spokesman
Erik
Christianson said Monday
night.
In Knight 's first six years
at Tech, he led the Red

RACINE - The National
Weather
Service
in
Charleston, W.Va. has forecasted tlie Ohio River will
reach flood stage at Racine
this week, which may also
result in the water reaching
flood stage in Pomeroy.
As of yesterday afternoon,
the NWS forecasted the Ohio
River will reach flood stage
at the Racine Locks and Dam
on Thursday. Flood stage is
41 feet. The river is expected
to crest at 43.3 feet on Friday
at Racine. If these predictions
hold true, that puts the river
cresting in Pomeroy at just
over 46 feet which is flood
stage. At 46.5 feet, the water
is on the streets in downtown
and at 48 feet downtown
businesses start to flood.
To put those numbers .in
perspective for the Rat:ine
area, normally when the
Ohio River reaches 41 feet,
Ohio 124 at Antiquity starts
to flood and areas of
Ravenswood, W.Va. are
flooded upstream from the
Racine locks.
At 42 feet Ohio 124 near
Minersville is !loaded. At.
44 feet W.Va. 62 is flooded
just below the Racine Locks
at West Creek, as well a~
more areas along Ohio 124.
