(AP) - One hundred years ago Tuesday, Fenton Art Glass made its first piece of handmade glass at its new factmy in Williamstown. It is thought to have been a crystal cream pitcher, featuring a water lily and cattail pattern. In the past century. the family owned comt)any has survived three waves of econ()mic strugg le thai wiped out many of the glass factories that once flourished in West Virginia, Pennsylvania and Ohio . It has since grown into an internat ionally known business that is one of the largest employers in Wood County. Fenton is managed by members of the fourth generation of the Fenton family and emp loys about 500 workers. ''We've been a significaut employer here for th()se 100 years," said company President George Fenton . " In addition, I believe we have become a major tourist draw for the area ." Fenton began as a glass decorating company in 1905 in Martins Ferry, Ohio, before brothers Frank l. and John Fenton discovered the benefits of producing glass for themselves and decided to build an independent glass operation in Williamstown. ' The company plans to celebrate its IOOth anniversary of production Aug. 3-5 with demonstrations, custom decoratmg by Fenton artists and special tours, among other thin gs. Fenton hosted another centennial celebration two years ago to honm the day the Fenton brothers deposited $284.86 into a savings account in Wheeling to start the business . Fenton produces vases and pitchers. bells and bowls and · figurines and is well known for its carnival glass, a distinctive look that marries iridescence with a patterned surface, and its hobnail milk glass, an opaque white, bubble-covered product that helped the company survive the Depression. It also survived the '50s, when more glassmakers failed. The recession of the 1980s and an explosion of imports from the Far East took even more . Each year between 30,000 and 40,000 people tour the Fenton plant. . c1 '\u 11{11,\\ , ,1\:"\l ' \1(\ 111 ,) , :.!00 ~ H\\\\m .\ d ,llh...,t · ull&u l~ .... , County's general fund benefits from investment income • Eastern falls to talented Water1ord.

PORTLAND '- Meigs County Commissioners Jim Sheets and Mick Davenport heard arguments for and against closing both Old Ponland Road and McDade Road in lebanon Township yesterday afternoon. Requesting the closure was The Shelly Company of Thornville represented by Jerry Mock, operations manager. Mock said the request to close the roads near the company's property stemmed from a "safety issue" for both employees and pedestrians. Resident Keith Ashley spoke against closing the township roads. "They (Shelly) · knew those old roads were there when the company bought the property and should have to live with it," Ashley said . hi s Davenport said understanding of the opposition's point of view was a fear that if the "historic" roads close Po.rtland would continue to lose its identity in a place where an emphasis on preserving history has been placed. In discussing Portland's history Mock said the specific area owned by Shelly in Ponland that's known as the "bloody ground" where intense fighting between lJnion and Confederate troops supposed!~ took place cannot be mtned for • -- Beth Sergent;photo Meigs County Commissioners Mick Davenport and Jim Sheets took over plans from Shelly Company representatives to close both Old Portland Road and McDade Road in Lebanon Township.

Ashley disagreed with the term "bloody ground" and said the maJOr battles didn 't take place nn th at piece of land. Residents June Ashley of the Ladies of the Grand Army and Gerald Crawford, past commander of the Sons of lJnion Veterans also spul-.c out against closing the roads. " Mock said if the roads were closed the company would build culdesacs on their property near the roads, also providing guard rails to allow people to turn around. Stone would also be placed nn the roads. Mock said there is no "plan B" if the commissioners deny th e request and that the company could continue operating with the roads remaining open. If the roads remain open the township trustees would continue to maintain them .

The discussion of raises never made it beyond just that with the majority of council feeling now wasn't the right time to give raises with a general fund that '"" desc ribed as improving but still with its stmggles. . Mayor Eric Cunningham suid he wasn't against giving out raises but felt right now wasn't a good time to give them. adding village fund' needed to show more improvement . ''I think the voters might frown on us giving out raises after passing a levy," Councilwoman Joy Bentley agreed.

VALUES· The Daily Sentinel - - -A Hunger For More- - When all is said and done and when the history of our li ves is complete, what measure shall be used for unveiling a man or woman of greatness? The barometer wi II simply be the fact of the Eternal Father's pleasure in finding the trusting surrender of a person's life to His measurelesS grace. It is this trusting surrender that compe Is a person to begin the mitial trek of turning his or her life over to God 's cleansing forgiveness. It is this abandonment to confidence in God that beckons us to enter a lifestyle of yielding our wishes , desires and plans to the mysterious, yet perfect, will of God. And it is in the willful casting of . ourselves upon His greatness that permits us to enter into the arena .o f hope in which we may witness the hand of God's deliverance. Even if we were to reside in plush palaces and have at our disposal all kinds of conveniences as well as the means to accomplish all that we could wish according to our limited understanding , we must agree (if we are to pursue true wisdom, success and significance) with ancient and powerful declarations that God is good, God js great, and that His creation is ultimately His sovereign domain . "My soul waits in silence for God only; from Him is my salvation. He only is my rock and my salvation , my stronghold; I shall not be gr~atly shaken" (Psalm 62.1-2 NAS) . What tempests rocked your world in 2006? And what lurks just beneath the hori- PageA2 Pastor Thom Mollohan zon that will spring upon you in 2007, relentless and ruthless, prepared to steal your joy, your sense of security, and perhaps every last shred of d1gnity? Unless your confidence is only in God, you are not prepared . Maybe you have great insurance. Maybe your job is stable and steady. Hopefully, your health is all thai you could wish and you 've never felt better. But don't be fooled by calm waters and steady seas. There are massive leviathans of trouble and tragedy lurking beneath serene scenes that are ready and waiting to upset the precarious!)/ crafted lives we lead, and to do so with· out the benefit of any forewarning. Yet ... for someone whose life is held tight in the gri{l of El Shaddai (God Almighty). the comfort and security that spill out of the knowledge that He is in control, robs the robbers of joy their spoil. Our trust in God binds the burglars of hope and peace when they creep into our lives invisibly or jump out at us with the suddenness of unexpected death . "My soul, wait in silence for God only, for my hope is from Him . He only is my · Rock and my Salvation, my Stronghold; I shall not be shaken" (Psalm 62:5-6 NAS) . When we shed our garments of flesh, and we leave this earth without all the material things we thought that we needed, what will be our vindication that life was worth the living? What will be our rewand? What will bring us the satisfaction that every grief, every hardship, and every hurt was worth what we have endured? It will be the smile of our Father as He receives to Himself all those who have found the forgiveness that only Jesus' sacrifice can secure . It will be the knowl edge that our trusting in Him for eternal life and holiness was an acceptable offering to Him and that His name was truly exalted somehow through our lives. "On God my salvation and my glory rest; the Rock of my strength, iny refuge is in God. Trust in Him at all times. 0 people; pour out your heart before Him ; God is a refuge for us. Selah" (Psalm 62:8 NAS). The lives that will in the end be proven to have been empty of meaning and will have somehow squandered what promise that had been instilled in their beginnings , are those that are built on the fault~ foundations of human w1sdom , are riddled with yieldings to the compulsions of physical cravmgs, and are "sheltered" by the "house-of-cards" presumption of human pride.

A parent's love is special, and it seems that there is nothing that they would not do for their children . As adults. we should remember that all things of this world are temporary and that there is nothing we can truly depend on or be absolutely sure of. A lm·ed one passing.away, or finances being low, or a serious illness could tum our world .upside down in an instant. Ho~ever, we should take hean: the re is good news: we art God's children. and His love for us is even greater than lhat of our parents'. And although il takes enormous courage to put our complete tru~ in God, we must believe that He wants only what is good for us.

VALUES· The Daily Sentinel - - -A Hunger For More- - When all is said and done and when the history of our li ves is complete, what measure shall be used for unveiling a man or woman of greatness? The barometer wi II simply be the fact of the Eternal Father's pleasure in finding the trusting surrender of a person's life to His measurelesS grace. It is this trusting surrender that compe Is a person to begin the mitial trek of turning his or her life over to God 's cleansing forgiveness. It is this abandonment to confidence in God that beckons us to enter a lifestyle of yielding our wishes , desires and plans to the mysterious, yet perfect, will of God. And it is in the willful casting of . ourselves upon His greatness that permits us to enter into the arena .o f hope in which we may witness the hand of God's deliverance. Even if we were to reside in plush palaces and have at our disposal all kinds of conveniences as well as the means to accomplish all that we could wish according to our limited understanding , we must agree (if we are to pursue true wisdom, success and significance) with ancient and powerful declarations that God is good, God js great, and that His creation is ultimately His sovereign domain . "My soul waits in silence for God only; from Him is my salvation. He only is my rock and my salvation , my stronghold; I shall not be gr~atly shaken" (Psalm 62.1-2 NAS) . What tempests rocked your world in 2006? And what lurks just beneath the hori- PageA2 Pastor Thom Mollohan zon that will spring upon you in 2007, relentless and ruthless, prepared to steal your joy, your sense of security, and perhaps every last shred of d1gnity? Unless your confidence is only in God, you are not prepared . Maybe you have great insurance. Maybe your job is stable and steady. Hopefully, your health is all thai you could wish and you 've never felt better. But don't be fooled by calm waters and steady seas. There are massive leviathans of trouble and tragedy lurking beneath serene scenes that are ready and waiting to upset the precarious!)/ crafted lives we lead, and to do so with· out the benefit of any forewarning. Yet ... for someone whose life is held tight in the gri{l of El Shaddai (God Almighty). the comfort and security that spill out of the knowledge that He is in control, robs the robbers of joy their spoil. Our trust in God binds the burglars of hope and peace when they creep into our lives invisibly or jump out at us with the suddenness of unexpected death . "My soul, wait in silence for God only, for my hope is from Him . He only is my · Rock and my Salvation, my Stronghold; I shall not be shaken" (Psalm 62:5-6 NAS) . When we shed our garments of flesh, and we leave this earth without all the material things we thought that we needed, what will be our vindication that life was worth the living? What will be our rewand? What will bring us the satisfaction that every grief, every hardship, and every hurt was worth what we have endured? It will be the smile of our Father as He receives to Himself all those who have found the forgiveness that only Jesus' sacrifice can secure . It will be the knowl edge that our trusting in Him for eternal life and holiness was an acceptable offering to Him and that His name was truly exalted somehow through our lives. "On God my salvation and my glory rest; the Rock of my strength, iny refuge is in God. Trust in Him at all times. 0 people; pour out your heart before Him ; God is a refuge for us. Selah" (Psalm 62:8 NAS). The lives that will in the end be proven to have been empty of meaning and will have somehow squandered what promise that had been instilled in their beginnings , are those that are built on the fault~ foundations of human w1sdom , are riddled with yieldings to the compulsions of physical cravmgs, and are "sheltered" by the "house-of-cards" presumption of human pride.

Some say it was the Iraq War, some say ·it was the economy and some say corruption, trade and immigration. I say yes, to all. Congress still doesn't get it. Qn Dec. 8, 2006, the U.S. House barely approved HR 6406, which is known as the Vietnam Free Trade Bill, with "yes" votes from Central Ohio Reps. Pryce. Tiberi and Hobson. Free trade has been a disaster on every front. Each one of these damning trade agreements signals the U.S. approval of slave labor, forced abortions and the loss of more than 44,900 American manufacturing jobs every month (U.S. Department of Labor). We currently live under more than an $8,000,000,000 trade deficit of which we owe China, the world's largest Communist country, the majority. ..

The middle class also has the education and ability to fight .the status-quo when it threatens our Republic, which is ~exactly what these trade agreements are - demolishing the middle class and rotting our Republic from the core. . Friday, January s, NJ NATIONAL WRITER CHICAGO - There are . only small signs that Augustine Tolton was here. A few buildings, including a home for senior citizens, carry his name. But the Roman Catholic church where he preached his sermons to flocks of adoring parishioners on Chicago's South Side is long gone. And few know the story of the man himself - a slave who grew up to become the first acknowledged black Catholic priest in the United States. "When he was alive, his life would probably not have been considered that newsworthy. He lived at a time when to be a person of color automatically meant that you were not a person of significance," says Atlanta Archbishop Wilton Gregory, who served from 2001-2004 as the first black president of the · U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. "So the very fact that he was able to accomplish what he accomplished under severe limitations was to his credit." Even Gregory, a native Chicagoan, did not know Talton's story until he was well into adulthood. "We need ·to find vehicles to make him better known today," he says. 1b that end, a book about Talton's life - "From Slave to Priest" - is being published by San Franciscobased Ignatius Press. The biography was written by Sister Caroline Hemesath, who first published the work in 1973. Ignatius Press hopes it will now find a " Ben Bryant .. Lancaster · • (Formerly of Meigs County) wider audience. Tolton 's story is one of struggle and perseverance. The second of three children, he was born in 1854 to Catholic parents who were slaves in Missouri. just a few years before the start of the Civil War. His father, Peter Tolton, was one of many slaves who escaped to join the Union anny and fight for black freedom - and who died battling for that cause, according to Hemesath's book. Augustine, along with his mother, Martha Jane , and his two siblings, escaped across the Mississippi River to Illinois, frantically rowing a boat while ducking Confederate gunfire. Eventually, they landed in Quincy, Ill., where Martha Jane, Augustine and his brother Charley worked in a tobacco factory. Tolton met priests and nuns throughout his life who helped him, including some who taught him to read. Others, however, were angry that a black boy was being educated with whites and they tried to stop him from realizing his dream of becoming a priest. Aftefyears of rejection by U.S. seminaries, pleas on his behalf from sympathetic Catholics finally allowed Tolton to study in Rome, leading to his ordination in 1886, when he was 31. Toltori had hoped to become a missionary in Africa as an escape from American ·racism . . Instead, he was assigned to a church in Quincy and later Chicago - a bitter disappointment that he nonetheless dutifully accepted. He went on to face more hardship and 2007 resentment, and little financial support for the black churches he oversaw. "If anybody had an excuse to leave the Catholic Church, it was him," says Harold Burke-Sivers, a deacon in a Portland, Ore., parish , who is also AfricanAmerican and who wrote the introduction to the newly issued biography. But Tolton recognized that Catholics who discriminated against him were violating church teaching on the dignity of all people and he dedicated himself to changing that, says BurkeSivers. . "He saw what the church could be," he adds. Tolton was credited with becoming a unifying force for black Catholics, especially in Chi cago. "Good Father Gus," as his parishioners often called him, was known for his eloquent sermons, his beautiful singing voice and his gift for playing the accordion. Upon his arrival in Chicago in 1889, some of the black parishioners who came to see him ''knelt at his feet and murmured words of gladness or wept for sheer joy because they had a pastor, ' one of their own,"' Hemesath wrote in her book. He spent much of his time attempting to raise funds for the now-defunct Saint Monica's Church in Chicago. "These dear people feel proud that they have a priest to look. after them. Even Protestants, when sick, will send for me in preference to their preachers, and they treat me with the greatest respect," Tolton wrote in a letter to one philanthropist. "That makes me feel that there is great BUSY DA'I?

A new report by the inspector general of the National Archives has now provided fresh details on what thereupon happened. Apparently, someone at the Archives saw Berger be~aving oddly, "fiddling with something white, which could have been paper, around his ankle." Shortly thereafter Berger left the building for a walk after dark . Several days later, members of the Archive staff confronted him about four documents, which were missing. Berger thereupon admitted that he had taken the missing documents with .. I '. KY still in the possession of the commission. But that, of course, is preposterous. If Berger thought it necessary to destroy the reports, even though other copies of them were available to the commission, then what he wanted to destroy wasn't the reports themselves but · things their recipients (very probably including Clinton) had written on those particular copies. What sorts of things would have impelled Berger to take the very serious risk of stealing those documents from the National Archives and cutting them to bits? Needles to say, Berger has never uttered a word on the subject. Today, his lawyer says Berger considers the matter closed and is seeking to move on. Naturally! · But it is as plain as a pikestaff that Berger was concealing. and is still concealing, evidence of .grave derelictions by Cl mton or his aides in connection with terrorist activi-ties in the United States prior to 9/11.

Berger added that he had returned to the building, but that first, making sure no one was watching. he slid the documents under a trailer at a nearby construction site. After finishing his ~rowsing, he left the Archives again, retrieved the documents, and took them home. There he cut some of them into little bits and threw the bits away. All of these actions were crimes. When they carne to light in 2004, during the presidential. campaign (in which Berger was an adviser to John Kerry), he was forced to resign froin the campaign.

Pressure on Berger is what is needed, and the united voices of several thousand outraged Americans would provide it. Berger was President Clinton's national security adviser, and therefore privy to the innermost thoughts and actions of Clinton and his aides on all national security matters. In 2003, the 9111 Commission (cochaired by former New Jersey Gov. Thomas Kean and former U.S. Rep. Lee Hamilton of Indiana) was naturally curious as to what Berger might be able to tell them about Clinton's actions concerning terrorist activities in the United States prior to Sept. II , 200 I.

Hemesath wrote that Tolton was beginning to be plagued by "spells of illness," though he shrugged them off, preferring to focus on his work and his parishioners. That work was cut short when he collapsed and died during a brutal Chicago heat wave in 1897. He was 43 . Burke-Si vers believes it is a story that is still relevant not only for black Catholics. "Young people can look to Father Augustine's legacy and be inspired - and be able to say, 'If he could do it, so could 1,"' Burke-Sivers says. At the same time. some wonder what Tolton would . think about the struggles black Americans still face inside and outside the church. Only about 4 percent of the nation's 64 million Catholics are AfricanAmerican, according to an estimate by the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate. Just last month, New Orleans Archbishop Alfred Hughes issued a wide-ranging pastoral letter racism and decrying·· acknowledging the problem still exists in the church. "After all these years, nothing really has changed. We're faced with the same issues in the church- needing churches we can go to that feed our needs, and education we can afford, and still facing racism in the church," says Adrienne Curry, managing editor of the Black Catholic Chicago Web site, who also works for the Archdiocese of Chicago.

We were just casual friends back then (the '60s) and had only seen each other at a few reunions since, but I decided to attend anyway. My friend got very upset when she saw me and accused me of invading her privacy .I never thought of it that way. Was I wrong? Sorry For Being Sorry Dear Sorry: Unless a death notice states that the funeral is private, most mourners appreciate having others attend. It shows respect for the deceased, and they often are gratified to know that old fric,,d~ remember the family. If there is no bad blood between you, we have no idea why your friend was so angry. We'd chalk it up to grief and let it pass. Dear Annie: "Outlaws in Iowa" said her children were being snubbed by her mother-in-law. That letter could have been written by my daughter-in-law.

But the Roman Catholic church where he preached his sermons to flocks of adoring parishioners on Chicago's South Side is long gone. And few know the story of the man himself - a slave who grew up to become the first acknowledged black Catholic priest in the United States. "When he was alive, his life would probably not have been considered that newsworthy. He lived at a time when to be a person of color automatically meant that you were not a person of significance," says Atlanta Archbishop Wilton Gregory, who served from 2001-2004 as the first black president of the · U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. "So the very fact that he was able to accomplish what he accomplished under severe limitations was to his credit." Even Gregory, a native Chicagoan, did not know Talton's story until he was well into adulthood. "We need ·to find vehicles to make him better known today," he says. 1b that end, a book about Talton's life - "From Slave to Priest" - is being published by San Franciscobased Ignatius Press. The biography was written by Sister Caroline Hemesath, who first published the work in 1973. Ignatius Press hopes it will now find a " Ben Bryant .. Lancaster · • (Formerly of Meigs County) wider audience. Tolton 's story is one of struggle and perseverance. The second of three children, he was born in 1854 to Catholic parents who were slaves in Missouri. just a few years before the start of the Civil War. His father, Peter Tolton, was one of many slaves who escaped to join the Union anny and fight for black freedom - and who died battling for that cause, according to Hemesath's book. Augustine, along with his mother, Martha Jane , and his two siblings, escaped across the Mississippi River to Illinois, frantically rowing a boat while ducking Confederate gunfire. Eventually, they landed in Quincy, Ill., where Martha Jane, Augustine and his brother Charley worked in a tobacco factory. Tolton met priests and nuns throughout his life who helped him, including some who taught him to read. Others, however, were angry that a black boy was being educated with whites and they tried to stop him from realizing his dream of becoming a priest. Aftefyears of rejection by U.S. seminaries, pleas on his behalf from sympathetic Catholics finally allowed Tolton to study in Rome, leading to his ordination in 1886, when he was 31. Toltori had hoped to become a missionary in Africa as an escape from American ·racism . . Instead, he was assigned to a church in Quincy and later Chicago - a bitter disappointment that he nonetheless dutifully accepted. He went on to face more hardship and 2007 resentment, and little financial support for the black churches he oversaw. "If anybody had an excuse to leave the Catholic Church, it was him," says Harold Burke-Sivers, a deacon in a Portland, Ore., parish , who is also AfricanAmerican and who wrote the introduction to the newly issued biography. But Tolton recognized that Catholics who discriminated against him were violating church teaching on the dignity of all people and he dedicated himself to changing that, says BurkeSivers. . "He saw what the church could be," he adds. Tolton was credited with becoming a unifying force for black Catholics, especially in Chi cago. "Good Father Gus," as his parishioners often called him, was known for his eloquent sermons, his beautiful singing voice and his gift for playing the accordion. Upon his arrival in Chicago in 1889, some of the black parishioners who came to see him ''knelt at his feet and murmured words of gladness or wept for sheer joy because they had a pastor, ' one of their own,"' Hemesath wrote in her book. He spent much of his time attempting to raise funds for the now-defunct Saint Monica's Church in Chicago. "These dear people feel proud that they have a priest to look. after them. Even Protestants, when sick, will send for me in preference to their preachers, and they treat me with the greatest respect," Tolton wrote in a letter to one philanthropist. "That makes me feel that there is great BUSY DA'I?

A new report by the inspector general of the National Archives has now provided fresh details on what thereupon happened. Apparently, someone at the Archives saw Berger be~aving oddly, "fiddling with something white, which could have been paper, around his ankle." Shortly thereafter Berger left the building for a walk after dark . Several days later, members of the Archive staff confronted him about four documents, which were missing. Berger thereupon admitted that he had taken the missing documents with .. I '. KY still in the possession of the commission. But that, of course, is preposterous. If Berger thought it necessary to destroy the reports, even though other copies of them were available to the commission, then what he wanted to destroy wasn't the reports themselves but · things their recipients (very probably including Clinton) had written on those particular copies. What sorts of things would have impelled Berger to take the very serious risk of stealing those documents from the National Archives and cutting them to bits? Needles to say, Berger has never uttered a word on the subject. Today, his lawyer says Berger considers the matter closed and is seeking to move on. Naturally! · But it is as plain as a pikestaff that Berger was concealing. and is still concealing, evidence of .grave derelictions by Cl mton or his aides in connection with terrorist activi-ties in the United States prior to 9/11.

(He denied, however, stuffing them m hi s socks, as the eyewitness had suggested. He explained that "his shoes frequently come untied and his socks frequently fall down.") Berger added that he had returned to the building, but that first, making sure no one was watching. he slid the documents under a trailer at a nearby construction site. After finishing his ~rowsing, he left the Archives again, retrieved the documents, and took them home. There he cut some of them into little bits and threw the bits away. All of these actions were crimes. When they carne to light in 2004, during the presidential. campaign (in which Berger was an adviser to John Kerry), he was forced to resign froin the campaign.

Pressure on Berger is what is needed, and the united voices of several thousand outraged Americans would provide it. Berger was President Clinton's national security adviser, and therefore privy to the innermost thoughts and actions of Clinton and his aides on all national security matters. In 2003, the 9111 Commission (cochaired by former New Jersey Gov. Thomas Kean and former U.S. Rep. Lee Hamilton of Indiana) was naturally curious as to what Berger might be able to tell them about Clinton's actions concerning terrorist activities in the United States prior to Sept. II , 200 I. To jog his memory bef~re. testifying, Berger spent several days in the National Archives in October 2003, browsing througq documents of the period.

Hemesath wrote that Tolton was beginning to be plagued by "spells of illness," though he shrugged them off, preferring to focus on his work and his parishioners. That work was cut short when he collapsed and died during a brutal Chicago heat wave in 1897. He was 43 . Burke-Si vers believes it is a story that is still relevant not only for black Catholics. "Young people can look to Father Augustine's legacy and be inspired - and be able to say, 'If he could do it, so could 1,"' Burke-Sivers says. At the same time. some wonder what Tolton would . think about the struggles black Americans still face inside and outside the church. Only about 4 percent of the nation's 64 million Catholics are AfricanAmerican, according to an estimate by the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate. Just last month, New Orleans Archbishop Alfred Hughes issued a wide-ranging pastoral letter racism and decrying·· acknowledging the problem still exists in the church. "After all these years, nothing really has changed. We're faced with the same issues in the church- needing churches we can go to that feed our needs, and education we can afford, and still facing racism in the church," says Adrienne Curry, managing editor of the Black Catholic Chicago Web site, who also works for the Archdiocese of Chicago.

Dear Annie: Is there any etiquette for whether or not to attend a funeral? I saw a death notice for the father of a high school friend. We were just casual friends back then (the '60s) and had only seen each other at a few reunions since, but I decided to attend anyway. My friend got very upset when she saw me and accused me of invading her privacy .I never thought of it that way. Was I wrong? Sorry For Being Sorry Dear Sorry: Unless a death notice states that the funeral is private, most mourners appreciate having others attend. It shows respect for the deceased, and they often are gratified to know that old fric,,d~ remember the family. If there is no bad blood between you, we have no idea why your friend was so angry. We'd chalk it up to grief and let it pass. Dear Annie: "Outlaws in Iowa" said her children were being snubbed by her mother-in-law. That letter could have been written by my daughter-in-law.

The Browns went 4-12 this season, Crennel 's second, and were ranked last or nextto-last in the NFL in several offensive categories.

WKYC-TV, which has a contract to broadcast preseason games and produces a weekly show for the team. first reported Robi skie 's departure. The 52-year-old Robiskie spent six seasons with the Browns. He has been an NFL assistant coach since 1982. when he helped with special teams for the Los Angeles Raiders, a team he played with for three seasons. After Butch Davi s resigned under pressure in 2004, Robiskie took over and led the Browns to a 1-4 record. Robiskie stayed with the Browns after Crennel was hired in 2005 and spent the past two seasons working with the team 's wide receivers. One of Robiskie's charges, wide receiver Braylon Edwards, became a distraction to the team this season. Edwards was fined for being late to team meetings, criticized Cleveland's play calling and teammate Brian Russell for a hard hit on Cincinnati wideout Chad Johnson, and threw a tantrum on the sideline during a home game. Earlier this week, Crennel said any changes to his staff would be decided in the next two weeks following meet- Cowher ered for league openings. The Steelers also are expected to talk with several candidates outside the organization, even though several players are lobbying for Grimm or Whisenhunt to get the job. There have been numerous · signs pointing to Cowher 's departure, beginning when he told the team last spring he was uncertain of his plans past this season. Contract extension talks last summer did not progress past the preliminary stage. Also, his season-ending meetings Monday with his players, which often last hours and hours, were much shorter and more emotional than usual. No players were seen in the Steelers' complex past mid-afternoon and Pro Bow 1 guard Alan Faneca said it was obvious Cowher looked ready to leave. Joey Port.er said he almost cried. The Steelers gave Cowher the option of returning next season and completing his current contract, but that arrangement probably wouldn't have satisfied either side. Cowher, if he coaches again, has signaled he wants to be one of the league's highest-paid coaches. His current $4 million-plus salary is about half that of Mike Holmgren, whose Seahawks lost to the Steelers in the Super Bowl last season . The Steelers have given no indication they are willing to pay any coach an $8 million salary. The Steelers also wouldn't welcome a lame-duck coaching situation because it would create a seasonlong distraction~ and ongoing speculation about who fromPageBl While the Steelers would have given Cowher ~til next week to make up his mind. he decided not to make them wait and called Dan Rooney on Thursday. Two strong contenders to replace Cowher - · Steelers offensive coordinator Ken Whisenhunt and offensive line coach Russ Grimm already are in place and are interviewing with other teams.

Jackson, 24, was 8-11 with a 2.65 ERA in 24 starts at Tennessee. New York's projected rotation includes Chien-Ming Wang, Mike Mussina, Andy Pettitte and Kei lgawa. The Yankees also have oft-injured right-hander Carl Pavano and hope Roger Clemens can be persuaded to follow Pettitte back to New York. Clemens hasn't decided whether 'to pitch this year. If he does, the 44-year-old right-hander might follow his 2006 schedule and not start his major league season until mid-June.

The Browns went 4-12 this season, Crennel 's second, and were ranked last or nextto-last in the NFL in several offensive categories. ' The team is expected to announce other coaching changes in the next 24 to 48 .hours. said the person who spoke on condition of anonymity .because the team has not finalized its plans. WKYC-TV, which has a contract to broadcast preseason games and produces a weekly show for the team. first reported Robi skie 's departure. The 52-year-old Robiskie spent six seasons with the Browns. He has been an NFL assistant coach since 1982. when he helped with special teams for the Los Angeles Raiders, a team he played with for three seasons. After Butch Davi s resigned under pressure in 2004, Robiskie took over and led the Browns to a 1-4 record. Robiskie stayed with the Browns after Crennel was hired in 2005 and spent the past two seasons working with the team 's wide receivers. One of Robiskie's charges, wide receiver Braylon Edwards, became a distraction to the team this season. Edwards was fined for being late to team meetings, criticized Cleveland's play calling and teammate Brian Russell for a hard hit on Cincinnati wideout Chad Johnson, and threw a tantrum on the sideline during a home game. Earlier this week, Crennel said any changes to his staff would be decided in the next two weeks following meet- Cowher ered for league openings. The Steelers also are expected to talk with several candidates outside the organization, even though several players are lobbying for Grimm or Whisenhunt to get the job. There have been numerous · signs pointing to Cowher 's departure, beginning when he told the team last spring he was uncertain of his plans past this season. Contract extension talks last summer did not progress past the preliminary stage. Also, his season-ending meetings Monday with his players, which often last hours and hours, were much shorter and more emotional than usual. No players were seen in the Steelers' complex past mid-afternoon and Pro Bow 1 guard Alan Faneca said it was obvious Cowher looked ready to leave. Joey Port.er said he almost cried. The Steelers gave Cowher the option of returning next season and completing his current contract, but that arrangement probably wouldn't have satisfied either side. Cowher, if he coaches again, has signaled he wants to be one of the league's highest-paid coaches. His current $4 million-plus salary is about half that of Mike Holmgren, whose Seahawks lost to the Steelers in the Super Bowl last season . The Steelers have given no indication they are willing to pay any coach an $8 million salary. The Steelers also wouldn't welcome a lame-duck coaching situation because it would create a seasonlong distraction~ and ongoing speculation about who fromPageBl While the Steelers would have given Cowher ~til next week to make up his mind. he decided not to make them wait and called Dan Rooney on Thursday. Two strong contenders to replace Cowher - · Steelers offensive coordinator Ken Whisenhunt and offensive line coach Russ Grimm already are in place and are interviewing with other teams. Whisenhunt met Thursday with the Atlanta Falcons.

Southern was slated to play Belpre Monday, but that game was moved up to early December (a 61 -59 overtime win) for the fromPageBl ings with general manager Phil Savage and owner Randy Lerner. Crennel, l 0-22 in two seasons, is expected to be back for a th ird year. On Monday. Crennel was asked if he will fight being asked by Cleveland's front oftlce to make changes to his staff. "Were going to talk about that and we 'II see what changes I might be asked to make," he said. Following a loss to Denver on Oct. 22, offensive coordinator Maurice Canhon, who had clashed with players and former quarterback Trent Dilfer. resigned and was replaced by offensive line/assistant head coach Jeff Davidson. Johnson along with Barry Meister. "We hav~ a conference call set up." Johnson, a live-time Cy Young Award winner, never seemed to lit in during two seasons with the Yankees, stanin~ with when he put his long n_ght arm up to block a televisiOn camera and said "Get out of my face, that's all 1 ask" as he walked from his midtown Manhattan hotel to his physical. He was jovial during sprin_g truining but often turned tacttum when games that counted began. At 6-foot-10. he stands out in any clubhouse, especially so at Yankee Stadium, where he seemed to be a loner during times reponers were allowed in.

Although he has gone 3419 during the regular season in two years with the Yankees, he is 0-1 with a 6.92 ERA in three postseason appearances. In another move, tirst baseman Doug Mientkiewicz and the Yankees reached a preliminary agreement on a $1.5 million, one-year contract. Mientkiewicz. who spent 2005 with the crosstown Mets, must take a physical for the deal to be finalized. Vizcaino, a 32-year-old right-hander. was 4-6last season with a 3.58 ERA in 70 games.

Jackson, 24, was 8-11 with a 2.65 ERA in 24 starts at Tennessee. New York's projected rotation includes Chien-Ming Wang, Mike Mussina, Andy Pettitte and Kei lgawa. The Yankees also have oft-injured right-hander Carl Pavano and hope Roger Clemens can be persuaded to follow Pettitte back to New York. Clemens hasn't decided whether 'to pitch this year. If he does, the 44-year-old right-hander might follow his 2006 schedule and not start his major league season until mid-June.

So West, if he wins the second trick, cannot return a heart witl· oul losing a lricll in lhe suk. West mual dud<, playing his eight. Declarer will draw trumps. West should play the nine before lho lour as a surt· prelerence signal for hearts. Thrln South will attacl\ <iamonrts.

Datish looks at his second chance the same way. "This is probably more special to me because I've put more into it. I've got a lot more of a vested interest," he said. Pitcock said, "We were a part of that team (in 2002) but we had nothing to do with it, so we've been striving to get to this game." The biggest difference for the Buckeyes this time is that they are the favorite. The oddsmakers are picking them by a touchdown or more. In 2002, OSU was a decided underdog. Ohio State is certainly aware of what the underdog did then. But so is Florida. No doubt the Gators coach Urban Meyer has already talked to his team about that. "I like that. It's great motivation. This is all about getting your players to play," Meyer said. And for Ohio State, it's about a new group of players getting their chance to play for the biggest prize in college football. GO BUCKS!

Datish looks at his second chance the same way. "This is probably more special to me because I've put more into it. I've got a lot more of a vested interest," he said. Pitcock said, "We were a part of that team (in 2002) but we had nothing to do with it, so we've been striving to get to this game." The biggest difference for the Buckeyes this time is that they are the favorite. The oddsmakers are picking them by a touchdown or more. In 2002, OSU was a decided underdog. Ohio State is certainly aware of what the underdog did then. But so is Florida. No doubt the Gators coach Urban Meyer has already talked to his team about that. "I like that. It's great motivation. This is all about getting your players to play," Meyer said. And for Ohio State, it's about a new group of players getting their chance to play for the biggest prize in college football. GO BUCKS!

' . �' ' Buckeyes National Championship Edition • • Page 14 Michigan from Page 10 were going to let the numbers say two Big Ten teams would play for the national championship. OK, some voters had other reasons, such as they thought a league champion like Florida had a better claim on a spot in the title game than a team like Michigan, which didn't .: win its own league. Some thought Florida played a tougher schedule. Others just went with the momentum that seemed to be trending Florida's way. But it kept coming back to the desire not to have a rematch. At least that's the way it looks when you study the votes. Two weeks before the final BCS standings, Michigan was 69 points ahead of Florida in the Harris poll and 40 points ahead of the Gators in the USA Today rankings. With one week left, Michigan was No. 3 behind Ohio State and Southern California in the BCS standings. But when UCLA beat Southern California, the Wolverines remained No. 3 and Florida jumped from No.4 to No.2. In the final polling, the Wolverines were 68 points behind Florida in the Harris poll and were 26 points behind the secondplace Gators in the USA Today poll. The voting in the USA Today poll shows most of the country was lined up solidly against sending Michigan to Arizona to tee it up again against Ohio State, a 42-39 winner when the · two teams met Nov. 18. The Wolverines' support in the USA Today poll came from 10 states, with coaches from Indiana, Illinois and Michigan accounting for eight of their 18 first-place votes. Florida, on the other hand, drew first-place . votes from coaches from 28 states . Neither of the Ohio coaches with a vote gave it to Michigan. Ohio State coach Jim Tressel abstained from votin~. a move which Michtgan coach Lloyd Carr . called "real slick.'' And Bowling Green's Gregg Brandon, who was an ·assistant coach for Florida coach Urban Meyer when he was at BGSU, cast his vote for the Gators. Michi~an 's support didn't divtde strictly along geographic lines, though . Texas coach Mack Brown and Oregon coach Mike Bellotti were in the Wolverines' camp. Central Florida's George O'Leary also voted for them. Maybe the most interesting vote for Florida came from LSU coach Les Miles. He is a former Michigan player and assistant coach who has been mentioned in the past as a possible successor to Carr when he decides to retire. In the Harris poll, many of the voters who rated Michigan ahead of Florida also had Michigan or Big Ten ties, such as former Wolverines player Jim Mandich, former Michigan assistant coach Bill McCartney, former Wisconsin athletic director Pat Richter and former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky. It probably didn't matter how impressive Michigan's credentials were. As long as there was another once-beaten team from a power conference out there .• a certain percentage of the poll voters were going to cast their ballots against an Ohio State-Michigan rematch. Friday, JanulfY 5, 2007 Meyer frcmPige4 field. He's on the run coaching. He's a Vf!IY Bood communicator with his players. He's very, very outg9!f11. He wOib extra liard. He really gets things go~ emotionally. He does a great job recruiting and he's a VC!Y_, vtpry good football coach," Beeman said. Meyer followed Ron Zook at Aorida when the current Illinois coach was forced out after three seasons when:: the Gators went 8-5, 8-5 and 7-5. Aorida fans were ex~g something more like t6e l2227-l recoro Steve S~er had in the 12 seasons Just before Zook. Meyer haS embraced the Spurrier leg~. and even beat the old coach, 17-16, ear. tier this season when he brought his South Carolina team to Gainesville. Spl!rrier was the coach when Aorida won its only national championship in 1996. Now Meyer hopes to match him. . Frtdayt January 5, 2007 Tressel fromPage4 coach and 3-8 in bowls. · That lack of late·-season success was one of the biggest reasons Ohio State fired Cooper and hired Tressel in January 200 I . Tressel has turned OSU around in both of Cooper's problem areas. The Buckeyes are 5- 1 against Michigan for the sweatervested one and have won their last four bowls since a 31 -28 loss to South Carolina m the 2002 Outback Bowl. One of those bowl victories, the 2003 Fiesta Bowl, is the biggest of Tressel's Ohio State career. The Buckeyes' 31-24 doubleovertime victory gave them their first national title since 1968. · Four years later, No . I Ohio State ( 12-0) is back Buckeyes National Championship Edition in the national championship against No. 2 Florida ( 12-1 ). Tressel is 62-13-0 in six seasons at Ohio State. So, is there a formula for success that starts with him? He deflects credit for the Buckeyes' success. And his explanations of any thing football related tend · to spread more fog than sunlight anyway. OSU 's players say they're not sure, either. Mostly. it comes down to Tressel always being calm, always paying attention to detail and seasoning it with just the right amount of unpredictability. "I don't know what goes through his head but it works out with him," senior defensive end Jay Richardson said. "We're a really focused team in general and a lot of that is because of Coach Tressel."

The Associated Press poll plays no role in the BCS standings. Those standings use the USA Today coaches. poll, the Harris Interactive poll and several computer rankings. �' ' Buckeyes National Championship Edition • • Page 14 Michigan from Page 10 were going to let the numbers say two Big Ten teams would play for the national championship. OK, some voters had other reasons, such as they thought a league champion like Florida had a better claim on a spot in the title game than a team like Michigan, which didn't .: win its own league. Some thought Florida played a tougher schedule. Others just went with the momentum that seemed to be trending Florida's way. But it kept coming back to the desire not to have a rematch. At least that's the way it looks when you study the votes. Two weeks before the final BCS standings, Michigan was 69 points ahead of Florida in the Harris poll and 40 points ahead of the Gators in the USA Today rankings. With one week left, Michigan was No. 3 behind Ohio State and Southern California in the BCS standings. But when UCLA beat Southern California, the Wolverines remained No. 3 and Florida jumped from No.4 to No.2. In the final polling, the Wolverines were 68 points behind Florida in the Harris poll and were 26 points behind the secondplace Gators in the USA Today poll. The voting in the USA Today poll shows most of the country was lined up solidly against sending Michigan to Arizona to tee it up again against Ohio State, a 42-39 winner when the · two teams met Nov. 18. The Wolverines' support in the USA Today poll came from 10 states, with coaches from Indiana, Illinois and Michigan accounting for eight of their 18 first-place votes. Florida, on the other hand, drew first-place . votes from coaches from 28 states . Neither of the Ohio coaches with a vote gave it to Michigan. Ohio State coach Jim Tressel abstained from votin~. a move which Michtgan coach Lloyd Carr . called "real slick.'' And Bowling Green's Gregg Brandon, who was an ·assistant coach for Florida coach Urban Meyer when he was at BGSU, cast his vote for the Gators. Michi~an 's support didn't divtde strictly along geographic lines, though . Texas coach Mack Brown and Oregon coach Mike Bellotti were in the Wolverines' camp. Central Florida's George O'Leary also voted for them. Maybe the most interesting vote for Florida came from LSU coach Les Miles. He is a former Michigan player and assistant coach who has been mentioned in the past as a possible successor to Carr when he decides to retire. In the Harris poll, many of the voters who rated Michigan ahead of Florida also had Michigan or Big Ten ties, such as former Wolverines player Jim Mandich, former Michigan assistant coach Bill McCartney, former Wisconsin athletic director Pat Richter and former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky. It probably didn't matter how impressive Michigan's credentials were. As long as there was another once-beaten team from a power conference out there .• a certain percentage of the poll voters were going to cast their ballots against an Ohio State-Michigan rematch.

Tressel has turned OSU around in both of Cooper's problem areas. The Buckeyes are 5- 1 against Michigan for the sweatervested one and have won their last four bowls since a 31 -28 loss to South Carolina m the 2002 Outback Bowl. One of those bowl victories, the 2003 Fiesta Bowl, is the biggest of Tressel's Ohio State career. The Buckeyes' 31-24 doubleovertime victory gave them their first national title since 1968. · Four years later, No . I Ohio State ( 12-0) is back Buckeyes National Championship Edition in the national championship against No. 2 Florida ( 12-1 ). Tressel is 62-13-0 in six seasons at Ohio State. So, is there a formula for success that starts with him? He deflects credit for the Buckeyes' success. And his explanations of any thing football related tend · to spread more fog than sunlight anyway. OSU 's players say they're not sure, either. Mostly. it comes down to Tressel always being calm, always paying attention to detail and seasoning it with just the right amount of unpredictability. "I don't know what goes through his head but it works out with him," senior defensive end Jay Richardson said. "We're a really focused team in general and a lot of that is because of Coach Tressel."
