Too bad Tiger Woods wasn't around Thursday at The Barclays. Sabbatini, whose best year in golf has been highlighted by barbs and challenges directed at the world's No. l player, attacked a soft Westchester Country Club on his way to an S-under 63 for a oneshot lead over Rich ~eem and K.J. Choi. Tile Barclays is the first of four tournaments that comprise the PGA Tour Playoffs, a new concept to golf aimed at rewarding those who play their best golf at the end of the year. About the only thing that resembled real playoffs was that some of the top players brought their top games. · Even though Sabbatini is known for saying Woods looked as "heatable as ever," he has tried to back up his words with strong play. A winner at Colonial, he came into these playoffs at No. 13 in the world and No. 6 in the playoff stand.ings. "I would say I'm getting close to gettin~ to. the top level," Sabbatmi said. "I keep opening the door and keep slamming it on my foot every . time I step through. It's just a matter of well this week, I have to take a vacation, which I don't really want to take. I want to play well this week, and I want to play in Boston and I want to play in Chicago. So it has my attention." Ernie Els, a two-time champion at Westchester, continued to emerge from his mediocre play with a 6under 66 that put him in the group with Steve Flesch, Carl Pettersson and Brian Gay, who took only 20 putts in his round. Eighty players were at par or better. Perhaps the biggest surprise was Vijay Singh, who is at No. 2 and had a golden chance to move to the top with Woods absent. But the three-time champion at Westchester struggled badly on the greens, startAP photo ing with a four-putt at No. Rory Sabbatini hits out of a bunker on the 18th hole, during the first round of The Barclays 14, and he wound up with a golf toornament In Harrison, N.Y.

BY LARRY O'DELL ASSOCIATED PRESS RICHMOND, Va. - The judge who will determine how much time Michael Vick spends in prison has shown little mercy over the years for high-profile defendants. Nobody knows this better than defense lawyer Robert H. Smallenberg. In 2004, he represented a city official who stole more than $1 million from Richmond taxpayers. He was well aware U.S. District Judge Henry E. Hudson had earned a reputation for handing doWn stiff sentences. "Tough but fair" is the description most often heard from lawyers who appear before Hudson, who owns a bichon frise do~ and declined to be intervtewed. "He's a good· trial judge, but on sentencing he tends to be in. the middle or upper range of the sentencmg guidelines," said attorney Murray Janus. "A lot of judges start at the low end. Not Judge Hudson." Still, Smallenberg was caught off-guard by how hard Hudson came down on his client. The judge sentenced Robert Evans to· I 0 years in prison - double what was called for under federal sentencing guidelines - declaring "the abuse of trust here is absolutely immeasurable." "I wasn't surprised he went above the guidelines, but I was surprised he went that far," Smallenberg said Thursday. Based on his personal experience, Smallenberg satd he won't be surprised if Hudson takes a stmilarly tough position in the case of NFL star Vick, , who is sched- Dunn uled to plead guilty to a federal dogfighting conspiracy charge Monday. A ~overnment official, speakm~ on condition of anonymtiY· because terms of the f.lea agreement are not fina , has told The Associated Press prosecutors will recommend a sentence of one year to 18 months. However, the maximum sentence is five years, and Hudson is not bound by any recommendation or by the federal sentencing guidelines. Vick's lawyers will try for the shortest possible sentence. "Unless they have some mitigating circumstances in their favor, they're going to have some problems," Smallenberg said. Even so, Hudson likely will prove to be a tough sell. Rob Wagner, who leads the federal public defender's office in Richmond, said defense attorneys in Hudson's courtroom face a rou~h road when arguing miugating factors should result in a sentence below the guideline range. "You know when you get Judge Hudson he 's going to take a tough line in sentencing," he said. Vick's lead attorney, Billy Martin, is aware of the challenge. . "We know we will be appearing before a judge who is considered a very fair judge but also a judge who is very firm," he said. "We're hoping at the right time to show the other sides of Michael · Vick to Judge Hudson. The media and the indictment show one very small side of Mr. Vick, which is not his best side. We' re hoping to show the whole person as this case give Atlanta a 7-6 lead, but Encarnacion tied it in the bottom half with a leadoff homer, his ninth of the seafrom PageBl son and first. in 56 at-llats since Aug. 4. fifth with a three-run shot Griffey's extra-base hit following consecutive was his I ,094th, breaking a walks to Willie Harris and Kelly Johnson.

His already-tarnished image suffered even more when two co-defendants said Vick participated in killing at least eight underperforming pit bulls. Those men and a third codefendant have pleaded guilty and were prepared to testify · against V1ck had the case gone to trial. Although the Vick case is the most sensational one to come before Hudson since President Bush appointed him to the federal bench in 2002, he's handled cases involving locally prominent people. hl 2005, he sentenced former state lawmaker Fenton Bland to four years and nine months in prison for conspiracy to commit bank fraud, rejecting a defense plea for a reduced sentence so Bland could better care for his two young children. ~·was I surprised? No," said Janus, who represented Bland. "Was I disappointed? Yes." Janus also represented H. Louis Salomonsky, a prominent Richmond real estate developer who pleaded guilty to trying to bri~ a city councilwoman. Hudson sentenced Salomonsky to two years. Even though prosecutors and Janus asked for a reduction to one year, Hudson only wojlld cut the term to 18 months. Attorney Brian Grossman said he has represented many clients, mostly in drug cases, in Hudson's court and has never persuaded the judge to sentence below the guidelines. Defense attorneys point and six hits. in five innings. Notes: Atlanta shortstop Edgar Renteria was placed on the 15-day disabled list ag~ravating his after sprained nght ankle.

The Reds honored former catcher Johnny Bench, second baseman Joe Morga n and Griffey in pregame ceremonies for being voted by fans to the all-time Rawlings Gold Glove team. out that although Hudson is tough at sentencing, he doesn't coddle prosecutors either. Hudson was appointed by President Reagan as U.S. attorney for the Eastern Dis.trict of Virginia - a position he held frorn 19861991: . "He will hold the government w its burden," Grossman said. "It's only when you get to sentencing . that the defense is behind the eight-ball." Hudson ascended to the bench through the law enforcement ranks, starting as a deputy sheriff iq Arlington County in 1969: He also has served as a local prosecutor, as director of the U.S. Marshals Servi~e anct as a circuit court judge in Fairfax County. : "He is a law-and-order kind of guy," Wagner said .

Generations have tasted Remo's Italian-style footlong hot dogs and keep coming back for more, while the sauce developed by his family has attracted customers from far and wide. ''The popularity is very gratifying, especially the way our sauce goes all over the United States and overseas," said Remo Rocchi, who founded Remo's 50 years.ago this summer. ''I'm overwhelmed." During business hours Friday, customers stopped by to eat, chat and congratulate Remo and his family on reaching a milestone with the business. Those driving by were encouraged to honk their horns, and they did. A celebration was organized by the family to note the anniversary of a business that, Remo recalled, struggled .in its first years of operation, but has become a lunch destination for many. Remo, 86, said the sauce was modified from one used with spaghetti lhat BRIAN J. REED 4 his mother Lilia adapted from her · father's restaurant in Italy. His father, Astolfo "Shorty" Rocchi, the first man drafted from Gallia County to serve in World War !, operated a cafe in downtown Gallipolis for many years and began serving hot dogs with the sauce in 1924. · When Remo opened his own business at 241 Second Ave. on July 15, l957, he had a license to sell beer and wine. Hot dogs with the locally wellknown sauce was just a sideline. Please see so yean, A1 Please see Ballot.

He asked that if he could get some help he would donate to efforts to spread the message of the miracle of Fatima. Shortly afterward, a story about Remo's was done by WSAZ- TV, bringing more attention its way. Then ·pieces appeared in Ohio Magazine and area newspapers, and even Gov. Richard Celeste came to · Remo's to eat in the 1980s. "I would have to call it a blessing," Remo said, adding that he continues to 'support the organization that promotes the Fatima message. When Remo's started, it was open six days a week, 14 hours a day. Now it operates five days a week for 61/2 hours a day, the result of slowing down from the hectic pace he and his wife Helen Marie, now 80, previ- ously maintained. The number of hot dogs sold now vaties, he said, ranging from ISO one day 10 400 another. But through the years, Remo's has become a fixture in the commqnity. "What I've gotten from the people is that I've never had any nasty customers," Remo satd. "They've been nothing but nice. I get kidded a loteveryone seems to vent their frustrations on me - but I know it's in fun." It was Helen Marie's idea to market the sauce, one Remo said he initially OJJP.Osed. "But she prevailed and it ultimately took off," he said. Remo and Helen Marie wiU observe their 60th wedding anniversary next Jan. 12. She has taken over the food production side of the business, coming in long before Remo's opening time to prepare the sauce. Remo now handles the business side. "She's a better cook than me," he added with a laQgh.

Crimes 50 years from PageA1 He purchased some cooking equipment from Central Supply Co., one of them to handle about 2 quarts of the sauce, figuring only a few hot dogs a day would leave the place. "What happened was the tail wagged the dog," Remo said. "Instead of the beer and wine business taking off, it was the hot dogs that took off." He recalled that despite the growing POJ?Ularity of his product, thmgs were tight for a number of years and he credited his deep Catholic faith with a tumaround in fortune. In the early 1970s, notin* he was "pretty disgusted' with the way things were Pow-Wow from PageA1 there will be people on hand to do war paint on attendees using traditional methods. "It is so neat to be able to look back on our ancestors," said Abrahamson. "They didn't just go buy paint from the store, they made it theniselv.es by rubbing stones together to form a powder. It's really something." A Pow-Wow is a unique celebration of heritage and life, centering around the drum. The Harvest Moon marks the end of the growing season, signaling the start of the long winter months. The Thunder Boyz will be in charge of the Head Drum, and a drum competition will be held with a cash prize for the winners. "The drum is the heart beat of the Pow-Wow," said Abrahamson. "The contest winners will · be judged by the Thunder Boyz on both the beat and the sound. It's going to be fantastic to listen to." The event is presented by the Nali ve American Education Association of Southeast Ohio,.a non-profit organization co-founded by Larry Roach, Rona Stevens, and Tom and Wilma Abrahamson last March. • The goal of the NAEASO is to infuse the local community with hands-on opportunities to include aspects of the Native American culture, traditions and spirituality into the current education system. By sharing folklore about local legends like Chief Cornstalk, Tecumseh, and other chiefs of southern Ohio, the kids will be learning about things they can relate to. "We have our own agenda to go along with what the schools are already teaching on local and national !eve els," said Abrahamson. "We warit to include as much 'Native American history and culture as we can. We want to enli~hten children on their hentage, and let them know at a young age what they can do or gain by pursuing it." Abrahamson hopes the Pow-Wow will serve as the kick-off and a prime example of the benefits of including Native American heritage and customs with other historical studies. He believes the City Park is the pertect place to share the wealth of ideas and expenences. "The park is ~oing to be the ideal setting," said Abrahamson. "The commu ~ nity as a whole has really gouen involved in the PowWow. Everyone in the whole city is excited about having it there. from the city manager to tlie maintenance workers. n The experience will bell/in at I 0 a.m. each day, w1th commencement at4 p.m. on Monday.

Dear Annie: My friend, "Sally," and I are both widows. We enjoy each other's company and often take day trips together to shop, have lunch, visii museums, etc. The problem is, Sally never offers to drive. She has a new car and often remarks proudly how few miles it's been driven and how seldom she has to buy gas. She has plenty of money. I know Sally doesn't like to drive, but it irks me that she never offers to pitch in for gas or spring for lunch. She is perfectly content to be chauffeured around with- . out reciprocating in any way. I thmk if I mentioned how I feel, she would become defensive and our friendship would be over. How do I let her know I'm sick of her stinginess without hurting her feelings?Tired of Footing the Bill in Philadelphia Dear Philly: The next time you and Sally plan a day together, say, "I ~on't be able to drive this time. All these trips cost too much in gas and wear and tear on my car. We'll have to find another way to get there." If she offers to drive, great. Otherwise, public transportation is an excellent way to get around a big city, and if Sally opts for a taxi, let her pay the fare and you can reimburse her for your half. Dear Annie: I am a male Rutland Bottle Gas l Gallipolis career College. Gallipolis Retail Merchants Association, Classic Brands I Topes Furniture Galleries and "Elizabeth" love to go antique jewelry shopping. A few days ago, Elizabeth saw an interesting-looking ring for $20. She asked her sister about it because Susanne knows quite a bit about gemstones. Susanne said she thought the ring might be a genuine emerald, but wasn't sure because the shop was pretty seedy and the ring was very dirty. But Susanne said if Elizabeth didn't buy it, she would. Elizabeth bought it and, after cleaning it up, took it ·to a jeweler for a verbal appraisal, and he told her it could be worth as much as $10,000. Elizabeth is walking on air, and so far, Susanne seems very happy for her. But I'm afraid as time goes on, Susanne may become envious or resentful because if it weren 't for her · knowledge, advice and encouragement, Elizabeth might not have bought the ring. Elizabeth may sell ·the ring, but right now, she's thinking of keeping it as an heirloom. What would be the fair and appropriate thing for us to encourage Elizabeth to do about Susanne? - No Name, No .Town , Dear No Name: Elizabeth found the ring on her own and might have purchased it with or without Susanne's input.

He asked that if he could get some help he would donate to efforts to spread the message of the miracle of Fatima. Shortly afterward, a story about Remo's was done by WSAZ- TV, bringing more attention its way. Then ·pieces appeared in Ohio Magazine and area newspapers, and even Gov. Richard Celeste came to · Remo's to eat in the 1980s. "I would have to call it a blessing," Remo said, adding that he continues to 'support the organization that promotes the Fatima message. When Remo's started, it was open six days a week, 14 hours a day. Now it operates five days a week for 61/2 hours a day, the result of slowing down from the hectic pace he and his wife Helen Marie, now 80, previ- ously maintained. The number of hot dogs sold now vaties, he said, ranging from ISO one day 10 400 another. But through the years, Remo's has become a fixture in the commqnity. "What I've gotten from the people is that I've never had any nasty customers," Remo satd. "They've been nothing but nice. I get kidded a loteveryone seems to vent their frustrations on me - but I know it's in fun." It was Helen Marie's idea to market the sauce, one Remo said he initially OJJP.Osed. "But she prevailed and it ultimately took off," he said. Remo and Helen Marie wiU observe their 60th wedding anniversary next Jan. 12. She has taken over the food production side of the business, coming in long before Remo's opening time to prepare the sauce. Remo now handles the business side. "She's a better cook than me," he added with a laQgh.

Dear Annie: My friend, "Sally," and I are both widows. We enjoy each other's company and often take day trips together to shop, have lunch, visii museums, etc. The problem is, Sally never offers to drive. She has a new car and often remarks proudly how few miles it's been driven and how seldom she has to buy gas. She has plenty of money. I know Sally doesn't like to drive, but it irks me that she never offers to pitch in for gas or spring for lunch. She is perfectly content to be chauffeured around with- . out reciprocating in any way. I thmk if I mentioned how I feel, she would become defensive and our friendship would be over. How do I let her know I'm sick of her stinginess without hurting her feelings?Tired of Footing the Bill in Philadelphia Dear Philly: The next time you and Sally plan a day together, say, "I ~on't be able to drive this time. All these trips cost too much in gas and wear and tear on my car. We'll have to find another way to get there." If she offers to drive, great. Otherwise, public transportation is an excellent way to get around a big city, and if Sally opts for a taxi, let her pay the fare and you can reimburse her for your half. Dear Annie: I am a male Rutland Bottle Gas l Gallipolis career College. Gallipolis Retail Merchants Association, Classic Brands I Topes Furniture Galleries and "Elizabeth" love to go antique jewelry shopping. A few days ago, Elizabeth saw an interesting-looking ring for $20. She asked her sister about it because Susanne knows quite a bit about gemstones. Susanne said she thought the ring might be a genuine emerald, but wasn't sure because the shop was pretty seedy and the ring was very dirty. But Susanne said if Elizabeth didn't buy it, she would. Elizabeth bought it and, after cleaning it up, took it ·to a jeweler for a verbal appraisal, and he told her it could be worth as much as $10,000. Elizabeth is walking on air, and so far, Susanne seems very happy for her. But I'm afraid as time goes on, Susanne may become envious or resentful because if it weren 't for her · knowledge, advice and encouragement, Elizabeth might not have bought the ring. Elizabeth may sell ·the ring, but right now, she's thinking of keeping it as an heirloom. What would be the fair and appropriate thing for us to encourage Elizabeth to do about Susanne? - No Name, No .Town , Dear No Name: Elizabeth found the ring on her own and might have purchased it with or without Susanne's input.

In 1936, the Anglo-Egyptian Treaty, calling for most British troops to leave Egypt, was signed in Montreux, Switzerland, (it was abrogated by Egypt in 1951).

But that concept is unsettling among some liberal entertainment . people. Richard Roeper, the film critic - for the liberal Chicago Sun-Times, put out a column entitled: "Disney Hit is No Victory for Right Wing." In said column, Mr. Roeper says that he doesn't believe ·critics wo!Jld hammer "High School Musical" simply because it is wholesome. Roeper goes on to say that conservatives might distance themselves from the movie because it embraces "liberal" (his word) values like tolerance and interracial dating. That's right, Richard, all · those mean conservatives would never like anything tolerant, would they? Here's what I believe, based upon more than 30 years of working in the media: Many critics are jaded and cynical. Most are extremely liberal. If the property is "edgy," antiAmerican or over-tbe.top offensive, they will like it. If the writers of "High Samuel Lee Larkin School Musical" ·bad turned the dancing . kids into flesh-eating zombies, the critics would have been · wowed. The sad truth is that if an · entertainment project espouses traditional values, applauds the USA or ' embraces religion, a good cnumber of American critics will boot at it, and demean ' those who find it worthy, · sometimes even c.iting ·..

I mean, Dam it! Because of the level of my chess game, I was able - even against a weak opponent, such as my younger brothers or the dog -to get myself checkmated in under three minutes. I challenge any computer to do it faster. The one board game that I still play is Scrabble. I like it because, unlike most other board games, which basically are pointless time-consumers, · in Scrabble you can do some. thing mentally stimulating and worthwhile: make naugh\y words. There is nothing quite like the sense of intellectual accomplishment that comes from spelling out, say, "b-o-s-om," knowing that it will be sitting there on the board for hours , staring up at your opponents. The problem with Scrabble is that it leads to arguments like this: FIRST PLAYER: .. . e, e, l. There! SECOND PLAYER: "gleet?" What the hell is OK, here's a nostalgia question: What childhood game does this remind you of? "Colonel Mustard in the · library with a candlestick." If you answered, "Spin the Bottle," then I frankly do not want to know any more about your childhood. What I'm referring to is, of course, the classic board game "Clue," in which you try to solve a murder by using a' logical process of deduction to narrow down the various possibilities until your sister has to go to the bathroom, at which point you cheat by looking at the answer cards. At least that was always my strategy. In Monopoly, my strategy was to be the car. The car was one of the little metal game-board pieces; the other ones, as I recall, were the hat, the dog, the shoe, the guy on the horse and the iron. I never wanted to be the shoe, and I definitely did not want to be the iron. I wanted to be the car because I could make car noises by vibrating my lips - brrrrmmmmm! and drive the car around on the floor to amuse myself while waiting my turn, which is mainly what you do in M<:>nopoly, which I always considered to be one of the most boring activities on the planet. But I had friends who loved it; when we played, they became insane, money-grasping capitalist pigs. They' d crouch next to the game board , looking over the tops of their hotels Dave Barry with greed-crazed eyes, watching me throw the dice, waiting for the little car to come around the corner, motoring innocently along- brrrrmmmmm'until it stopped on r- Hab! - Boardwalk, and they'd triumphantly announce that I owed them some huge amount of pretend money that they knew to the exact pretend cost of landing on Boardwalk without looking at the cards. I'm not saying that all of these friends went on to become attorneys, but it was a healthy percentage. I will say this about Monopoly: I was better at it than at chess. My problem with chess was that all my pieces wanted · to end the game as soon as possible. "Let's get this over with!" was their battle cry. If the rules had allowed it, my pieces would all have charged out onto the board simultaneously the instant the game started. Unfortunately, this was not legal, so they had to content themselves with charging out one at a time, pretty much at random, and immediately getting captured. Here's what it they sounded like: PAWNS: Oh, no! They " Harrisburg, and the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, Bidwell.

OPINION 6unbap t:imel -6enttnd Sunday,August26,2007 WASHINGTON - New calls from lawmakers to begin withdrawing U.S . forces from Iraq may trou· ble the White House but are not too out of step with scenarios envisioned by war commanders·. · The disagreement mainly is about bow deeply to cut, not when to begin. Anti-war Democrats and some Refublicans want to bring al combat troops home in a matter of months. Generals in Iraq favor starting the transition next year from a predominantly combat role, but only gradually; this approach would leave a six-figure force in Iraq for the next president to command. About 162,000 U.S. troops are in Iraq now. Some 30,000 were added between January and June as the ., main element of President Bush's revised strategy to stabilize' Baghdad. The first of five Army brigades in that buildup is expected to go home by April, if not a few months earlier. Lt. Gen. Ray Odierno, the top day-to-day commander of U.S. forces in Iraq, said this month that all five brigades probably would be out of Iraq - and not replaced by August 2008. That would take the troop total back down to roughly 132,000. It is not clear how much lower the total might go by the time Bush leaves offite in January 2009. For some military .officials, the hope is below I00,000 by then. A war-fighting plan by Gen. Oavid Petraeus, the top AP photo Lt. Gen. Ray Odlerno salutes as he enters Forward Operating Base Loyalty in south-east Baghdad, Iraq on Sunday, Aug. 5. Odlerno, the top day-to-day commander of U.S. forces in Iraq, said this month that all five brigades probably would be out of Iraq, and not replaced, by August 2008. That would take the troop total back down to roughly 132,000. It is not clear how much lower the total might go by the time Bush leaves o~fice in January 2009. · U.S. commander in Iraq, and Ambassador Ryan Crocker that went into effect July 26 foresees a significant U.S. role at least until 2009. The plan does not contain troop numbers or withdrawal schedules. Rather, it sets a goal of achieving "sustainable security" by the summer of 2009, leading to some degree of political reconciliation. Often lost in the Washington talk about troop cuts is the fact that security conditions in Iraq vary widely by region and that some less contested areas may be ready for the transition to control by Iraqi security early next year. Thus, a modest cut of 5,000 . troops, as Sen. John Warner, R- Va., urged on Thursday to begin by Christmas, is within the range of what commanders may have in mind to recommend to Bush. It could be done without affecting the outlook for improved security in the Baghdad area. Barry McCaffrey, a retired Army general who was a division commander during the 1991 Gulf War, said in an interview Friday that be bas no doubt the U.S. will begin· pulling some forces early next Y\lar. "We're going to draw down, one way or the other, or they' 11 wreck the armed forces," McCaffrey said. He cited mounting strains on troops and their families . The only right answer is that we •ve got to be down to I 0 brigades b.Y next November," be sBJd, referring to 2008 and describing a force total somewhat below I 00,000. "That's from a military, not a political, perspective." Maj. Gen. Benjamin R. Mixon, commander of American forces in northern Iraq, said in a recent interview that be bas proposed reducin~ his troop levels starting m January and shifting to missions focused less on direct combat against insurgents and more on supporting the operations of Iraqi security forces. There are nearly 24,000 U.S. troops in Mixon's area, which stretches north from Baghdad to the Turkish border. Mixon said be might be able to reduce that total by one-half in the 12 months to 18 months after beginning a · transition this January. Top commanders in Anbar province, in westerr Iraq, also have suggested they could begin reducing troops next year. Those are examples of how troop cutbacks can be tailored and timed in accordance with regional security conditions. The transition to Iraq security control may be possible at varying speeds around the country rather than waiting to be done across the board and simu 1taneously.

But that concept is unsettling among some liberal entertainment . people. Richard Roeper, the film critic - for the liberal Chicago Sun-Times, put out a column entitled: "Disney Hit is No Victory for Right Wing." In said column, Mr. Roeper says that he doesn't believe ·critics wo!Jld hammer "High School Musical" simply because it is wholesome. Roeper goes on to say that conservatives might distance themselves from the movie because it embraces "liberal" (his word) values like tolerance and interracial dating. That's right, Richard, all · those mean conservatives would never like anything tolerant, would they? Here's what I believe, based upon more than 30 years of working in the media: Many critics are jaded and cynical. Most are extremely liberal. If the property is "edgy," antiAmerican or over-tbe.top offensive, they will like it. If the writers of "High Samuel Lee Larkin School Musical" ·bad turned the dancing . kids into flesh-eating zombies, the critics would have been · wowed.

I mean, Dam it! Because of the level of my chess game, I was able - even against a weak opponent, such as my younger brothers or the dog -to get myself checkmated in under three minutes. I challenge any computer to do it faster. The one board game that I still play is Scrabble. I like it because, unlike most other board games, which basically are pointless time-consumers, · in Scrabble you can do some. thing mentally stimulating and worthwhile: make naugh\y words. There is nothing quite like the sense of intellectual accomplishment that comes from spelling out, say, "b-o-s-om," knowing that it will be sitting there on the board for hours , staring up at your opponents. The problem with Scrabble is that it leads to arguments like this: FIRST PLAYER: .. . e, e, l. There! SECOND PLAYER: "gleet?" What the hell is OK, here's a nostalgia question: What childhood game does this remind you of? "Colonel Mustard in the · library with a candlestick." If you answered, "Spin the Bottle," then I frankly do not want to know any more about your childhood. What I'm referring to is, of course, the classic board game "Clue," in which you try to solve a murder by using a' logical process of deduction to narrow down the various possibilities until your sister has to go to the bathroom, at which point you cheat by looking at the answer cards. At least that was always my strategy. In Monopoly, my strategy was to be the car. The car was one of the little metal game-board pieces; the other ones, as I recall, were the hat, the dog, the shoe, the guy on the horse and the iron. I never wanted to be the shoe, and I definitely did not want to be the iron. I wanted to be the car because I could make car noises by vibrating my lips - brrrrmmmmm! and drive the car around on the floor to amuse myself while waiting my turn, which is mainly what you do in M<:>nopoly, which I always considered to be one of the most boring activities on the planet. But I had friends who loved it; when we played, they became insane, money-grasping capitalist pigs. They' d crouch next to the game board , looking over the tops of their hotels Dave Barry with greed-crazed eyes, watching me throw the dice, waiting for the little car to come around the corner, motoring innocently along- brrrrmmmmm'until it stopped on r- Hab! - Boardwalk, and they'd triumphantly announce that I owed them some huge amount of pretend money that they knew to the exact pretend cost of landing on Boardwalk without looking at the cards. I'm not saying that all of these friends went on to become attorneys, but it was a healthy percentage. I will say this about Monopoly: I was better at it than at chess. My problem with chess was that all my pieces wanted · to end the game as soon as possible. "Let's get this over with!" was their battle cry. If the rules had allowed it, my pieces would all have charged out onto the board simultaneously the instant the game started. Unfortunately, this was not legal, so they had to content themselves with charging out one at a time, pretty much at random, and immediately getting captured. Here's what it they sounded like: PAWNS: Oh, no! They " Harrisburg, and the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, Bidwell.

Generals in Iraq favor starting the transition next year from a predominantly combat role, but only gradually; this approach would leave a six-figure force in Iraq for the next president to command. About 162,000 U.S. troops are in Iraq now. Some 30,000 were added between January and June as the ., main element of President Bush's revised strategy to stabilize' Baghdad. The first of five Army brigades in that buildup is expected to go home by April, if not a few months earlier. Lt. Gen. Ray Odierno, the top day-to-day commander of U.S. forces in Iraq, said this month that all five brigades probably would be out of Iraq - and not replaced by August 2008. That would take the troop total back down to roughly 132,000. It is not clear how much lower the total might go by the time Bush leaves offite in January 2009. For some military .officials, the hope is below I00,000 by then. A war-fighting plan by Gen. Oavid Petraeus, the top AP photo Lt. Gen. Ray Odlerno salutes as he enters Forward Operating Base Loyalty in south-east Baghdad, Iraq on Sunday, Aug. 5. Odlerno, the top day-to-day commander of U.S. forces in Iraq, said this month that all five brigades probably would be out of Iraq, and not replaced, by August 2008. That would take the troop total back down to roughly 132,000. It is not clear how much lower the total might go by the time Bush leaves o~fice in January 2009. · U.S. commander in Iraq, and Ambassador Ryan Crocker that went into effect July 26 foresees a significant U.S. role at least until 2009. The plan does not contain troop numbers or withdrawal schedules. Rather, it sets a goal of achieving "sustainable security" by the summer of 2009, leading to some degree of political reconciliation. Often lost in the Washington talk about troop cuts is the fact that security conditions in Iraq vary widely by region and that some less contested areas may be ready for the transition to control by Iraqi security early next year. Thus, a modest cut of 5,000 . troops, as Sen. John Warner, R- Va., urged on Thursday to begin by Christmas, is within the range of what commanders may have in mind to recommend to Bush. It could be done without affecting the outlook for improved security in the Baghdad area. Barry McCaffrey, a retired Army general who was a division commander during the 1991 Gulf War, said in an interview Friday that be bas no doubt the U.S. will begin· pulling some forces early next Y\lar. "We're going to draw down, one way or the other, or they' 11 wreck the armed forces," McCaffrey said. He cited mounting strains on troops and their families . The only right answer is that we •ve got to be down to I 0 brigades b.Y next November," be sBJd, referring to 2008 and describing a force total somewhat below I 00,000. "That's from a military, not a political, perspective." Maj. Gen. Benjamin R. Mixon, commander of American forces in northern Iraq, said in a recent interview that be bas proposed reducin~ his troop levels starting m January and shifting to missions focused less on direct combat against insurgents and more on supporting the operations of Iraqi security forces. There are nearly 24,000 U.S. troops in Mixon's area, which stretches north from Baghdad to the Turkish border. Mixon said be might be able to reduce that total by one-half in the 12 months to 18 months after beginning a · transition this January. Top commanders in Anbar province, in westerr Iraq, also have suggested they could begin reducing troops next year. Those are examples of how troop cutbacks can be tailored and timed in accordance with regional security conditions. The transition to Iraq security control may be possible at varying speeds around the country rather than waiting to be done across the board and simu 1taneously.

But thanks to the right foot of Dominic Duarte, the Panthers are 1-0 for the first time in a long time. · ·' How long exactly? . "Oh my gosh," exclaimed Southeastern coach Cory Black. "No, I don ' t remember." He' ll definitely -remember this one , though. Duarte nailed a 33-yard field goal in overtime as Southeastern stunned the River Valley Raiders 23· 20 in the high school football season ·opener on Friday. The snap wasn't perfect, but holder Zach Hill was able to handle it, and the junior kicker booted it perfectly through the uprights. "We have a lot of faith in Dominic, and I' II put him out there to kick in any situation," Black added. Duarte had kicked two extra points successfully before having one blocked, and he also missed a 36yard field. g oal try that would have won the game at the end of regulation. In fact, both teams had a chance to · avoid overtime. The Raiders had a late drive thwarted after Hill intercepted a Clayton Curnutte pass inside the final minute. Southeastern's ensuing drive ended with the missed kick. River Valley had first crack at offense in overtime, and was moving the football well on the ground, before . fumbling it away inside the 5-yard line. It was the Raiders' fourth lost fumble of the contest, and fifth turnover in all . "I don't care who you are playing. If you turn it over that many times, you're going to ~ut yourself in a bind," satd' River Valley coach Gregg Deel after suffering his first-ever loss to Southeastern. The loss was River Valley's fi rst in a season opener since 2001. Since Southeastern became a fixture on the schedule in 2002, the ·Panthers had never beaten the Raiders until Friday.

The Rebels spent most of the nidlt in enemy territory and fimited its mistakes except for a handful of mishandled snaps which led to two fumbles given up.

Most of those passes went to Patrick Flora, who caught four for 49 yards, and Travis Bowman, who came down with three catches for 27 yards. . Zach Sturgeon led the ground attack with 29 yards on I 0 carries. Overall, Hannan showed a lot of improvement in the second half.

But thanks to the right foot of Dominic Duarte, the Panthers are 1-0 for the first time in a long time. · ·' How long exactly? . "Oh my gosh," exclaimed Southeastern coach Cory Black. "No, I don ' t remember." He' ll definitely -remember this one , though. Duarte nailed a 33-yard field goal in overtime as Southeastern stunned the River Valley Raiders 23· 20 in the high school football season ·opener on Friday. The snap wasn't perfect, but holder Zach Hill was able to handle it, and the junior kicker booted it perfectly through the uprights. "We have a lot of faith in Dominic, and I' II put him out there to kick in any situation," Black added. Duarte had kicked two extra points successfully before having one blocked, and he also missed a 36yard field. g oal try that would have won the game at the end of regulation. In fact, both teams had a chance to · avoid overtime. The Raiders had a late drive thwarted after Hill intercepted a Clayton Curnutte pass inside the final minute. Southeastern's ensuing drive ended with the missed kick. River Valley had first crack at offense in overtime, and was moving the football well on the ground, before . fumbling it away inside the 5-yard line. It was the Raiders' fourth lost fumble of the contest, and fifth turnover in all . "I don't care who you are playing. If you turn it over that many times, you're going to ~ut yourself in a bind," satd' River Valley coach Gregg Deel after suffering his first-ever loss to Southeastern. The loss was River Valley's fi rst in a season opener since 2001. Since Southeastern became a fixture on the schedule in 2002, the ·Panthers had never beaten the Raiders until Friday.

Unfortunately for. the hosts at East Shade River Stadium Friday night, they got going just a little too late. After managing just 43 yards in the first half en route to a 15-0 deficit after the opening drive of the third quarter, the Green and White showed major signs of life with 13 consecutive points and 156 yards of total offense m the second half. But despite that late surge of offensive prow less - not to mention allowing just 224 total yards as a defense EHS was still unable to end its 10-game losing streak following a hard-fought 1713 setback to the Spartans in Tri-Valley Conference nondivisional action. Alexander ( 1-0) jumped out to a 9-0 halftime lead after a pair of Eastern mistakes resulted in points in the first half. The first came ·on tbe opening kick-off of the game when the Spartans pooch-kicked to the middle of the field and recovered the ball at the EHS 29-yard line. Seven plays, 29 yards and 3:46 later, AHS had its first lead of the night when quarterback Greg Frost scored from a yard out at the 8:08 mark for a 6-0 edge.

Firestone 26, Richfield Revere 11 incomplete pass gave the Eagles the ball, down two, with II :54 remaining in the contest. The Spartans' defense stepped up however, forcing a 4th-and-8 situation deep in Eastern territory. The Eagles elected to punt, but a mis-handled snap forced punter Craig Hensley to scramble. Hensley tried to unleash a punt on the run, but was hit by an Alexander defender as he kicked it. The punt went sideways and backwards, rolling out of the side of the endzone for an AHS safety. The deuce gave the Spartans a 11-13 with 9:47 remaining. It also proved to be the final score of the evening. The Eagles had one fmal drive start at their own 10 with 8:00 left, but they never advanced farther than the 24. Alexander took over on · downs with 3:38 left and simply ran out the clock. Eastern's defense limited the guests to 131 rushing yards on 42 carries and also forced the only turnovers of the game. EHS also produced 192 rushing yards on 28 carries. Still, it just wasn't enough to come away with the victory. "Right now we are trying to do everything perfect, or at least the very best we can. We weren't perfect in the first half and we were almost perfect in the second half," said frrst-year EHS coach Kevin Welsh. "I think we made gceat adjustments at halftime and we came out and did what we needed to do, but we just had too ma~y mtstakes early_ on. We still have some thmgs to work out." Alexander, thanks to 93 224- 199 in total yards and had 11 ftrst downs overall. The hosts had just seven passing yards and six first downs in the setback. "I thipk tonight was a good confidence builder for us. Alexander is a Di'vision IV program and we are Division VI, so they are twice the size we are," Welsh said. "I think the guys understand that we are a good team for our size, now we just have to work on some things to get better." AHS senior Adam McCarty, a work horse throughout the evening, led all mshers with 99 yards on 26 carries. Frost had 21 yards rushing and a TO run , and he also went 7-for- 13 for 93 yards and a score through the air. Cody Lawson led the Spartans with 43 yards receiving. Konnery led the Eagles with 89 rushing yards on four carries, followed by Burroughs with 61 yards on eight totes. Both had a rushing score as well. Kyle Rawson also had 43 yards on 15 carries and led the Eagles with six yards receiving. · Brayden Pratt finished the night just 2-of-6 for seven yards passing with no scores. ~either q~arterback threw an mterceptton. Eastern was flagged three ttmes for 30 yards, while the Spartans were guilty of six infractions for 50 yards. Eastern returns to action Friday when it travels to Mercerville to take on South Gallia in a battle of Division VI programs.

Derek Veazey' s 38 yard field goal with no time remaining snapped a 13- 13 tie and gave the Wahama White Falcons a thri !ling 16-13 season opening gridiron win over vtsiting Waterford Friday evening. Veazey's game winning boot split the upri ghts as lime expired and gave the White Falcons the win after the Wildcats had co mpleted a recent fourth quarter comeback rally to even the count at 13-13. The game was playe d on a hot, humid evening before a large Fa lcon ga th ~ rin g at the Bend Area sc hool. Veazey was swarmed at midfielil after the 38 yard kic k sa iled across the crossbar with a couple o f yards to spare but he had to share hero lreatme nt wtth a trio of WHS gridders offensivel y and a couple more on the de fensive side of the football. Juni or wide recei ver Garrett Underwood led Wahama statistlcally wiih a couple of outstanding pass reception s as did senior ti ght e nd Gabe Rou sh. Sophomore William Zuspan also played a huge . role in the Falcons last minute heroic s by coming nff the sideline to complete six of eight passes to set up the game winning kick . Defen sively for the Bend Area team it was se nior mtddl e linebacker Brent Jones who made a lasting impression on several Waterford ball carriers with nine solo tackles with sophomore Micaiah Branch ge tting in several bone jarrin g stops. "We showe d a lot of character there at the end " • said veteran Wahama grid me ntor Ed C romley fol lowing lhe exciting fini sh. "They had all the momentum after capitali zing on one of our mi stakes to tie the score but we kept our potse and mo ved the ball down lhe fie ld to ' give Derek (Veazey) a chance and he knoc ked it down." In a rare occurence the White Falcons actually fin ished the contest with more passing yards than yards on the ground with a couple of WHS quarterback~ con necting on nine of 17 passes for 149 yards and a touchdown Garret Underwood grabbed stx aerials for I05 yards and a score with Gabe Roush hauling in a couple of clutch receptions in the final drive for 37 yard s. Zuspan came off the bench to spark th e Wahama offen se with six completion s in eight tri es for 82 yards with Veazey connecting o n three o f mne passes for 67 yards and a score. The Falcon ground game managed just 86 yards on t~e night _with Veazey toppmg the hst o f ru shers wtth 40 yards in 22 carries. Wahama gained the· early edge with its first score of the season co min g with 9:02 remaining in th e opening period when Veazey wea ved his way through the Waterford defe nse on a 44 yard jaunt into the end zone~ The PAT snap was bobbled res ultin g tn the ki ck bemg short and Wahama held the early advantage with a 6-0 edge. The Wildcats wasted littie time in a nswering the Bend Area tea ms shortlived lead with Waterford taking just two .plays to reach the· epd zone follow ing the ensuin g kt ckoff. Quarterbac k Gary Tornes tossed a short 13 yard pass lo Derek Hoge who then late ralled the ball to a streaking Cody Hall. Hall · raced th e rema ining 50 yards down the far sideline to even the coun t at 6-6 with 8·27 to play , in the opening period . The visttors extra point kick also fell short of it s mark . Midway through the second quarter the White Falcons again forged into the lead when Veazey fouod a streak ing Underwood with a pass and cat c h combin atiO n th at covered 44 yard s. Veazey booted the point after to ·give Wahama a 13-6 edg e with 6:5 1 remaining in the first half. Neither team could gen erate much of an offensive threat for several series as until WHS marched deep inside Waterford territory early in the third canto. The Falcons drove to the Wildcat 10 but an interception of a Veazey offering in the end zone prompted the falcon s to come away empty handed. The visitors then caught the break they were lookmg for when an errant snap on a Falcon punt atte mpt went awry with Waterford recoverin g th e botche d WHS effort at the Bend Area two ya rd line. Two plays later substttute quarterback Matt McCutcheon · sneaked "'n from a yard out wi!h Cody hall adding the potnt after to kn ot the sc xore at 13- 13 with 5:3 7 remaining in regul ation. Wahama answered the challe nge moment s laler when th ey bega n what would become the winning dri ve 'l"'ith just :27 left on the clock. Zuspan promptly co nnected with Roush ove r the middle for 19 yards and a first down at the Wildcat 43 . Following a couple of incomplete offerings Zuspan again found Roush down the center for another 18 yard pick-up to the Waterfmd 25 with just :05 to play. A quick four yard completion o Underwood put the pigskin at the 21 with :02 left and Cromley gave Veazey the opportunity to kick .the game winning fi eld goal. Veazey had to suffer through two consecutive Waterford timeouts in an attempt to ice the ' se nior place-kicker but it was to no a vail as Veazey calmly nail ed the 38 yard ki ck to win the game and set off a jubliant celebration at midfield. Following its season opening triumph the White Falcons must hit the road for three consecutive away ga mes ag ainst opponents from the Buckeye State . A journey to Federal Hocking next Friday kicks off the three gam e road swing followed by visits to Eastern and South Galli a. ' '. I I • I Miami E. 0 W.

Commissioner Roger Goodell suspended the Atlanla Falcons quarterback indefinitely without pay, just hours after Vick-ftled a plea agreement that portrayed him as less involved than three codefendants and guilty mainly of poor judgment for associating with them . Vick acknowledged bankrolling gambling on the dogfights, but denied placing bets himself or taking any of the winnings. He admitted that do!!s not worthy of the pit were killed "as a result of the collective efforts" .of himself and two co-defendants. Goodell wasn't moved and didn't bother to wait until Monday, when U.S . District Judge Henry E. Hudson will formally accept the plea and set a senteocing date likely to land Vick in prison for one to five years. The ·commissioner said Vick's admitted conduct was "not only illegal but also cruel and reprehensible." Even if he didn' t personally Pclace bets, Goodell . said, 'your actions in funding the bettin~ and your association with illegal gambling both violate the terms of your NFL player contract and expose rou to cormpting influences m derogation of one of the most fundamental responsibilities of an NFL player." Goodell freed the Falcons to "assert any claims or remedies" to recover $22 million of Vick's signing bonus from the 10-year, $130 million contract he signed in 2004. The commissioner didn't speak to Vick but based his deci~ion on the court filings. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said Goodell may meet with Vick in the future, and Goodell said he would review the suspension after all the legal proceedings. "You have engaged in conduct detrimental to the welfare of the NFL and have violated the league's personal conduct policy," Goodell told Vick in a letter after meeting in New York with Falcons president and general manager Rich McKay. "You are now. justifiably facin$ consequences for the decistons you made and the conduct m which you engaged. Your career, freedom and public standing are now in the most serious jeopardy," Goodell wrote. "I hope that you will be able to learn from this difficult experience 1\1111 N '. ( 0 and emerge from it better prepared to act responsibly and to make the kinds of choices that are expected of a conscientious and law abiding citizen." Falcons owner Arthur Blank supported Goodell's decision and said: , "We hope that Michael will use this time, not only to further address his legal matters, but to take positive steps to improve his personal life." Nike, meantime, said it termi nated its contract with Vick. Earlier Friday in Riclunond, Va., a "sulllii!ary of facts" signed by Vick was flied along with hi s written plea agreement on a federal conspiracy dogfighting charse. · "While Mr. Vick is not personally charged with or responsible for committing all of the acts alleged in the indictment, as with any conspiracy charge, he is taking full responsibility for his actions and the actions of the others involved," the defense team said in a written slatement after the plea agreement was filed. "Mr. Vick apologizes for his poor judgment in associating himself with those involved in dog fighting and realizes he should never have been involved in this conduct," the Slatement said. Vick and his lawyers said his involvement was limited when it came to the enterprise known as the Bad Newz Kennels. "Our position has been that we are going to try to help Judge Hudson understand all the facts 'l!ld Michael's role," Vick's defense attorney, Billy Martin, said in telephone interview. "Michael's role was different than others associated with this incident." yick's su~ary of facts said he provtded· most of ~e Bad Newz Kennels operation ~d gambling _monies, echomg language m plea agreements by the three co-defendants -Tony T~ylor': ~ell Peace and Quarus Phillips. When the dogs won, the slatement said, gambling proceeds were generally s~~ by Taylor, Peace and Phtlbps. "Vick did not gamble by placing side bets on any of the fights. Vick did not receive any of the proceeds of the purses that were won by Bad Newz Kennels," the cowt document said. According to the slatement, Vick also was involved with the others in killirrg six to eight dogs that dtd not perform well in testing sessions last April. The dogs were executed by drowning or hanging. "Vick agrees and stipulates that these dogs all died as a result of the collective efforts" of Vick, Phillips and Peace, the slatement said. In the plea agreement, the government committed to recommending a sentence on the low end of the federal sentencing guideline range of a year to 18 months . However, the conspiracy charge is punishable by up to five years in prison, and the judge is not bound by any recommendation or by ·the guidelines. Hudson has a repulation for imposi ng stiff sentences, according to lawyc;rs who have appeared in his court. The judge will set a sentencing date at Monday's hearing. Martin said Vick will "speak to the public and explain his actions." Though he declined to say when and where, the Tom Joyner Morning Show, a syndicated program based in Dallas, said 1t will have a live interview with Vick on Thesday. The 'began in A~ when authorities conductmg a drug investigation of Vick's cousin raided a Surry County property owned by Vick and found dozens of dogs, some injured, and equipment commonly used in dogfighting. A federal indictment issued in July charged Vick, Peace, Phillips and Tf[;lor with an interstate do~ tghting conspiracy. Vick mitially denied any involvement, and all four men pleaded innocent. The three co-defendants later pleaded J!Uilty and agreed to testify against Vick. . Taylor was the first to change his plea, saying Vick financed the dogfighting ring's gambling and operations. Peace and Phillips soon followed, alleging that Vick joined them in killing dogs that did not measure up in test fights . · The sickening details outlined in the indictment and other court papers prompted a public backlash against Vick, who had been one of the NFL's most popular players. Animal-rights groups mobilized against Vick even protesting at NFL headquarters in New York - and sponsors dropped him. "It is fitting that the NFL has suspended him," said Wayne Pacelle, president and CEO of The Humane Society of the United States. "He's now a role model for somethmg temble, and it's not appropriate that he suit up in an NFL uniform." case Associated Press Writers Matthew Barakat in McLean, Va., and Michael Felberbaum in Richmond contributed to this repon. // I Villi 1M I ll ' .lll (Ill< lll/\1111 !0 VI/Ill'.

Unfortunately for. the hosts at East Shade River Stadium Friday night, they got going just a little too late. After managing just 43 yards in the first half en route to a 15-0 deficit after the opening drive of the third quarter, the Green and White showed major signs of life with 13 consecutive points and 156 yards of total offense m the second half. But despite that late surge of offensive prow less - not to mention allowing just 224 total yards as a defense EHS was still unable to end its 10-game losing streak following a hard-fought 1713 setback to the Spartans in Tri-Valley Conference nondivisional action. Alexander ( 1-0) jumped out to a 9-0 halftime lead after a pair of Eastern mistakes resulted in points in the first half. The first came ·on tbe opening kick-off of the game when the Spartans pooch-kicked to the middle of the field and recovered the ball at the EHS 29-yard line. Seven plays, 29 yards and 3:46 later, AHS had its first lead of the night when quarterback Greg Frost scored from a yard out at the 8:08 mark for a 6-0 edge. The second miscue came with II seconds remaining before intermission, as the Spartans were facing a thirdand- I 7 at the EHS 46. Frost found receiver Cody Lawson downfteld on a 43yard connection, giving the s Akr. SVSM 14, Cle.

AHS accumulated 102 yards of total offense and five first downs in the first half, while Eastern managed only one passing yard and 42 on the ground. Eastern (0-1) also had three first downs by intermission and caused four fumbles, recovering a pair of those turnovers. Alexander opened the second half with a time-consuming 11 -play, 62-yard drive that went for paydirt at the 5:17 mark when Frost found Jake Hedrick with a seven-yard passing score. That completion completed the 6:43 drive and gave AHS a comfortable 15-0 advantage. Eastern ran just three offensive plays in the third quarter, the first of which followed the ensuing kickoff. Freshrnan running back Klint Konnery took the opening hand-off and scampered 74 yards around the left-side, igniting the home crowd while pulling the Eagles to within 15-7 with 4:56 left in the third stanza. Eastern's defense forced a punt on the Spartans' next series and the offense took possession at its own 31 with 2:30 left in the quarter.

The Spartans' defense stepped up however, forcing a 4th-and-8 situation deep in Eastern territory. The Eagles elected to punt, but a mis-handled snap forced punter Craig Hensley to scramble. Hensley tried to unleash a punt on the run, but was hit by an Alexander defender as he kicked it. The punt went sideways and backwards, rolling out of the side of the endzone for an AHS safety. The deuce gave the Spartans a 11-13 with 9:47 remaining. It also proved to be the final score of the evening. The Eagles had one fmal drive start at their own 10 with 8:00 left, but they never advanced farther than the 24. Alexander took over on · downs with 3:38 left and simply ran out the clock. Eastern's defense limited the guests to 131 rushing yards on 42 carries and also forced the only turnovers of the game. EHS also produced 192 rushing yards on 28 carries. Still, it just wasn't enough to come away with the victory. "Right now we are trying to do everything perfect, or at least the very best we can. We weren't perfect in the first half and we were almost perfect in the second half," said frrst-year EHS coach Kevin Welsh. "I think we made gceat adjustments at halftime and we came out and did what we needed to do, but we just had too ma~y mtstakes early_ on. We still have some thmgs to work out." Alexander, thanks to 93 224- 199 in total yards and had 11 ftrst downs overall. The hosts had just seven passing yards and six first downs in the setback. "I thipk tonight was a good confidence builder for us. Alexander is a Di'vision IV program and we are Division VI, so they are twice the size we are," Welsh said. "I think the guys understand that we are a good team for our size, now we just have to work on some things to get better." AHS senior Adam McCarty, a work horse throughout the evening, led all mshers with 99 yards on 26 carries. Frost had 21 yards rushing and a TO run , and he also went 7-for- 13 for 93 yards and a score through the air. Cody Lawson led the Spartans with 43 yards receiving. Konnery led the Eagles with 89 rushing yards on four carries, followed by Burroughs with 61 yards on eight totes. Both had a rushing score as well. Kyle Rawson also had 43 yards on 15 carries and led the Eagles with six yards receiving. · Brayden Pratt finished the night just 2-of-6 for seven yards passing with no scores. ~either q~arterback threw an mterceptton. Eastern was flagged three ttmes for 30 yards, while the Spartans were guilty of six infractions for 50 yards.

Derek Veazey' s 38 yard field goal with no time remaining snapped a 13- 13 tie and gave the Wahama White Falcons a thri !ling 16-13 season opening gridiron win over vtsiting Waterford Friday evening. Veazey's game winning boot split the upri ghts as lime expired and gave the White Falcons the win after the Wildcats had co mpleted a recent fourth quarter comeback rally to even the count at 13-13. The game was playe d on a hot, humid evening before a large Fa lcon ga th ~ rin g at the Bend Area sc hool. Veazey was swarmed at midfielil after the 38 yard kic k sa iled across the crossbar with a couple o f yards to spare but he had to share hero lreatme nt wtth a trio of WHS gridders offensivel y and a couple more on the de fensive side of the football. Juni or wide recei ver Garrett Underwood led Wahama statistlcally wiih a couple of outstanding pass reception s as did senior ti ght e nd Gabe Rou sh. Sophomore William Zuspan also played a huge . role in the Falcons last minute heroic s by coming nff the sideline to complete six of eight passes to set up the game winning kick . Defen sively for the Bend Area team it was se nior mtddl e linebacker Brent Jones who made a lasting impression on several Waterford ball carriers with nine solo tackles with sophomore Micaiah Branch ge tting in several bone jarrin g stops. "We showe d a lot of character there at the end " • said veteran Wahama grid me ntor Ed C romley fol lowing lhe exciting fini sh. "They had all the momentum after capitali zing on one of our mi stakes to tie the score but we kept our potse and mo ved the ball down lhe fie ld to ' give Derek (Veazey) a chance and he knoc ked it down." In a rare occurence the White Falcons actually fin ished the contest with more passing yards than yards on the ground with a couple of WHS quarterback~ con necting on nine of 17 passes for 149 yards and a touchdown Garret Underwood grabbed stx aerials for I05 yards and a score with Gabe Roush hauling in a couple of clutch receptions in the final drive for 37 yard s. Zuspan came off the bench to spark th e Wahama offen se with six completion s in eight tri es for 82 yards with Veazey connecting o n three o f mne passes for 67 yards and a score. The Falcon ground game managed just 86 yards on t~e night _with Veazey toppmg the hst o f ru shers wtth 40 yards in 22 carries. Wahama gained the· early edge with its first score of the season co min g with 9:02 remaining in th e opening period when Veazey wea ved his way through the Waterford defe nse on a 44 yard jaunt into the end zone~ The PAT snap was bobbled res ultin g tn the ki ck bemg short and Wahama held the early advantage with a 6-0 edge. The Wildcats wasted littie time in a nswering the Bend Area tea ms shortlived lead with Waterford taking just two .plays to reach the· epd zone follow ing the ensuin g kt ckoff. Quarterbac k Gary Tornes tossed a short 13 yard pass lo Derek Hoge who then late ralled the ball to a streaking Cody Hall. Hall · raced th e rema ining 50 yards down the far sideline to even the coun t at 6-6 with 8·27 to play , in the opening period . The visttors extra point kick also fell short of it s mark . Midway through the second quarter the White Falcons again forged into the lead when Veazey fouod a streak ing Underwood with a pass and cat c h combin atiO n th at covered 44 yard s. Veazey booted the point after to ·give Wahama a 13-6 edg e with 6:5 1 remaining in the first half. Neither team could gen erate much of an offensive threat for several series as until WHS marched deep inside Waterford territory early in the third canto. The Falcons drove to the Wildcat 10 but an interception of a Veazey offering in the end zone prompted the falcon s to come away empty handed. The visitors then caught the break they were lookmg for when an errant snap on a Falcon punt atte mpt went awry with Waterford recoverin g th e botche d WHS effort at the Bend Area two ya rd line. Two plays later substttute quarterback Matt McCutcheon · sneaked "'n from a yard out wi!h Cody hall adding the potnt after to kn ot the sc xore at 13- 13 with 5:3 7 remaining in regul ation. Wahama answered the challe nge moment s laler when th ey bega n what would become the winning dri ve 'l"'ith just :27 left on the clock. Zuspan promptly co nnected with Roush ove r the middle for 19 yards and a first down at the Wildcat 43 . Following a couple of incomplete offerings Zuspan again found Roush down the center for another 18 yard pick-up to the Waterfmd 25 with just :05 to play. A quick four yard completion o Underwood put the pigskin at the 21 with :02 left and Cromley gave Veazey the opportunity to kick .the game winning fi eld goal. Veazey had to suffer through two consecutive Waterford timeouts in an attempt to ice the ' se nior place-kicker but it was to no a vail as Veazey calmly nail ed the 38 yard ki ck to win the game and set off a jubliant celebration at midfield. Following its season opening triumph the White Falcons must hit the road for three consecutive away ga mes ag ainst opponents from the Buckeye State .

Ohio 13, Tyler Consol idated 0 Wyomin g East29, Sherman 18 indefmitely after he files plea BY DAVE Got.o8ERG AND LA'RRY O'DEll ASSOCIATED PRESS No matter how nuanced his confession for involvement in dogfighting, Michael Vic.k got no leniency Friday from the NFL. Commissioner Roger Goodell suspended the Atlanla Falcons quarterback indefinitely without pay, just hours after Vick-ftled a plea agreement that portrayed him as less involved than three codefendants and guilty mainly of poor judgment for associating with them . Vick acknowledged bankrolling gambling on the dogfights, but denied placing bets himself or taking any of the winnings. He admitted that do!!s not worthy of the pit were killed "as a result of the collective efforts" .of himself and two co-defendants. Goodell wasn't moved and didn't bother to wait until Monday, when U.S . District Judge Henry E. Hudson will formally accept the plea and set a senteocing date likely to land Vick in prison for one to five years. The ·commissioner said Vick's admitted conduct was "not only illegal but also cruel and reprehensible." Even if he didn' t personally Pclace bets, Goodell . said, 'your actions in funding the bettin~ and your association with illegal gambling both violate the terms of your NFL player contract and expose rou to cormpting influences m derogation of one of the most fundamental responsibilities of an NFL player." Goodell freed the Falcons to "assert any claims or remedies" to recover $22 million of Vick's signing bonus from the 10-year, $130 million contract he signed in 2004. The commissioner didn't speak to Vick but based his deci~ion on the court filings. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said Goodell may meet with Vick in the future, and Goodell said he would review the suspension after all the legal proceedings. "You have engaged in conduct detrimental to the welfare of the NFL and have violated the league's personal conduct policy," Goodell told Vick in a letter after meeting in New York with Falcons president and general manager Rich McKay. "You are now. justifiably facin$ consequences for the decistons you made and the conduct m which you engaged. Your career, freedom and public standing are now in the most serious jeopardy," Goodell wrote. "I hope that you will be able to learn from this difficult experience 1\1111 N '. ( 0 and emerge from it better prepared to act responsibly and to make the kinds of choices that are expected of a conscientious and law abiding citizen." Falcons owner Arthur Blank supported Goodell's decision and said: , "We hope that Michael will use this time, not only to further address his legal matters, but to take positive steps to improve his personal life." Nike, meantime, said it termi nated its contract with Vick. Earlier Friday in Riclunond, Va., a "sulllii!ary of facts" signed by Vick was flied along with hi s written plea agreement on a federal conspiracy dogfighting charse. · "While Mr. Vick is not personally charged with or responsible for committing all of the acts alleged in the indictment, as with any conspiracy charge, he is taking full responsibility for his actions and the actions of the others involved," the defense team said in a written slatement after the plea agreement was filed. "Mr. Vick apologizes for his poor judgment in associating himself with those involved in dog fighting and realizes he should never have been involved in this conduct," the Slatement said. Vick and his lawyers said his involvement was limited when it came to the enterprise known as the Bad Newz Kennels. "Our position has been that we are going to try to help Judge Hudson understand all the facts 'l!ld Michael's role," Vick's defense attorney, Billy Martin, said in telephone interview. "Michael's role was different than others associated with this incident." yick's su~ary of facts said he provtded· most of ~e Bad Newz Kennels operation ~d gambling _monies, echomg language m plea agreements by the three co-defendants -Tony T~ylor': ~ell Peace and Quarus Phillips. When the dogs won, the slatement said, gambling proceeds were generally s~~ by Taylor, Peace and Phtlbps. "Vick did not gamble by placing side bets on any of the fights. Vick did not receive any of the proceeds of the purses that were won by Bad Newz Kennels," the cowt document said. According to the slatement, Vick also was involved with the others in killirrg six to eight dogs that dtd not perform well in testing sessions last April. The dogs were executed by drowning or hanging. "Vick agrees and stipulates that these dogs all died as a result of the collective efforts" of Vick, Phillips and Peace, the slatement said. In the plea agreement, the government committed to recommending a sentence on the low end of the federal sentencing guideline range of a year to 18 months . However, the conspiracy charge is punishable by up to five years in prison, and the judge is not bound by any recommendation or by ·the guidelines. Hudson has a repulation for imposi ng stiff sentences, according to lawyc;rs who have appeared in his court. The judge will set a sentencing date at Monday's hearing. Martin said Vick will "speak to the public and explain his actions." Though he declined to say when and where, the Tom Joyner Morning Show, a syndicated program based in Dallas, said 1t will have a live interview with Vick on Thesday. The 'began in A~ when authorities conductmg a drug investigation of Vick's cousin raided a Surry County property owned by Vick and found dozens of dogs, some injured, and equipment commonly used in dogfighting. A federal indictment issued in July charged Vick, Peace, Phillips and Tf[;lor with an interstate do~ tghting conspiracy. Vick mitially denied any involvement, and all four men pleaded innocent. The three co-defendants later pleaded J!Uilty and agreed to testify against Vick. . Taylor was the first to change his plea, saying Vick financed the dogfighting ring's gambling and operations. Peace and Phillips soon followed, alleging that Vick joined them in killing dogs that did not measure up in test fights . · The sickening details outlined in the indictment and other court papers prompted a public backlash against Vick, who had been one of the NFL's most popular players. Animal-rights groups mobilized against Vick even protesting at NFL headquarters in New York - and sponsors dropped him. "It is fitting that the NFL has suspended him," said Wayne Pacelle, president and CEO of The Humane Society of the United States.

It was surely a lot of work, but the folks at the Syracuse Community Center say the recent ice cream social was a real success and raised some much-needed money for continuing Center improvements. Using hand-cranked freezers, they made gallons and gallons of ice cream in nine flavors and sold almost all of it, as well as ' lots of sandwiches and a variety of desserts. John Bentley said everyone seemed to enjoy the food and had a really $Ood time visitin$ with thetr friends and netghbors. Some were first-time visitors who toured the building to llet a glimpse . of the many tmprovements made over the past several years. Bentley said there was a freezer problem which resulted in some of the ice cream getting little soft and the committee wants to apologize for that. Seems the Center hils only one upright freezer and the constant opening and closing resulted in too much warm air. getting inside. They are' hopeful that someone with a chest freezer they no longer use or want might · donate it to the Center or perhaps sell it at a very reasonable price. Sunday, August 26, 2007 US Bank employees volunteer time COMMUNITY (ORNER Turning something old and unusable into something new and of value is Vicki Hanson's challenge in restoring the historic building on Condor Street in Pomeroy which once was a · part of the Wildermuth Brewery. Vicki purchased the building and is busy supervising the work of converting the structure into what she describes as two executive suites . The property, which eKtends from Condor right down to Main Street with ~ beautiful view of the river, up until a couple of years ago was headquarters for the Meigs Cooperative Parish. Once that operation moved to the old Pomeroy Elementary School, the building was sold to Vicki who had a vision for its restoration. In earlier times, it was the home of the Epple family, who operated a grocery on the front part of the lot. And before that, the basement served as a stable for the horses used . in the Wildermuth Brewery operation during Pomeroy 's boom years in the late 1800s. The restoration/renovation is movin·g right along and Vicki expects to have the two-bedroom apartment and a loft for gracious living completed by early neKt year.

SUNDAY PUZZLER Emigrant from Gallia had an a•nazingjotJJ'Itey BY JAMES SANDS It would be interesting to assemble a list and a biographical sketch of all of the peo~le, born in Gallia County m the 19th century, who moved west to such places ·as Kansas and Nebraska. For instance, a Google search brings up such names as Sumner Holcomb (later a prominent attorney in Kansas); William Hebard Grayum (became a prominent teacher in Kansas), and LA . Menager (later a prominent Kansas farmer), all of whom were born in "Old Galli a." Then there is the fascinating story of Jonathan R. Bing, who was born here hi 1828. After receiving a good education, Bing became apprenticed to J.Morton and Co., who in the 1840s and 1850s built steamboats and · wooden barges at the mouth of Raccoon Creek in Gallia County. 1t was during this time that Bing married Miss Maggie Barnes of Gallipolis. Maggie died on the first anniversary of her marriage, July 7, 1855. It was shortly after that when Bing left Gallia County for Athens. He was one of the lead carpenters who built many fine Athens homes of the 1850s, as well as the Oddfellows Hall. Later that decade, Bing went to Platt County, IlL, and worked as a .foreman on the Monticello Court House in Platt County.

Louisa's father and brothers were members of the Missouri Home Guard, a pro-southem organization. When the Civil War broke out, the two Smith boys joined the Confederate Army. Bing. then 31, stayed out of the conflict. But on Sept. 18, 1862, he enlisted in the Union Army • as part of the 29th Missouri. According to a · web site about Missouri's part in the Civil War, it says: "At age 32, Bing was older and had more skills and experience than most soldiers. The average solider was 25 years old and 48 percent of the soldiers had been farmers." "All of Bing's moving around and city living probably toughened him and' helped him survive as a new soldier. Training camps · were swept with deadly e~i­ demics of childhood dtseases such as measles and mumps. The young soldiers, fresh from the farm, had never been eKposed to these . disease and they died in great numbers." The 29th Missouri in late 1862 was moved to Cape Girardeau, Mo., for further training. Then they were placed on steamers that took them to Helena, Ark., where they were assigned to Gen. Francis Blair's brigade. The 29th Missouri became a prominent part of the effort to take Vicksburg in the spring and summer of 1863. They were one of the lead brigades at the Bloody battle of Chickasaw Bluffs,. just a ·few miles from Vicksburg. Gen. Sherman was reputed to have said, "We will lose 5,000 men before we take Vicksburg, and we may as well lose them here (Chickasaw Bluffs) as anywhere else."

For instance, a Google search brings up such names as Sumner Holcomb (later a prominent attorney in Kansas); William Hebard Grayum (became a prominent teacher in Kansas), and LA . Menager (later a prominent Kansas farmer), all of whom were born in "Old Galli a." Then there is the fascinating story of Jonathan R. Bing, who was born here hi 1828. After receiving a good education, Bing became apprenticed to J.Morton and Co., who in the 1840s and 1850s built steamboats and · wooden barges at the mouth of Raccoon Creek in Gallia County. 1t was during this time that Bing married Miss Maggie Barnes of Gallipolis. Maggie died on the first anniversary of her marriage, July 7, 1855. It was shortly after that when Bing left Gallia County for Athens. He was one of the lead carpenters who built many fine Athens homes of the 1850s, as well as the Oddfellows Hall. Later that decade, Bing went to Platt County, IlL, and worked as a .foreman on the Monticello Court House in Platt County.

"Sometimes it's a typo," he says. "I don't want my students to sound like robots. It's pretty easy to fall into that trap of trying to do everything perfectly and there's no spark left." What Goodman is going for is "authenticity" - an increasingly hot selling point in college admissions as a new year rolls around. In an age when applicants all seem to have volunieered, played sports and traveled abroad, colleges are wary of slick packaging. They 're drawn to high grades and test scores, of course, but also to humility and to students who really got something out of their experiences, not just those trying to impress colleges with their resume. The trend seemingly should make life easier for students - by reducing the pressure to puff up their ere,dentials. Bl!t that's not always the case. For some students, the challenge of presenting themselves as full, flawed people cuts against every-. thing else they've been tolp about applying to college - to show off as much as possible. At the other extreme, when a college signals what it's looking for, students inevitably try to provide it. So you get some stu.dents trying to fake authenticity, to package themselves as unpackaged. "There's a little bit of an arms race going on," says Goodman, who is based in Washington. "If I'm being more authentic than you are, you have to be more authentic · next month to keep up with the Joneses." Colleges say what they want is honest, reflective students. As Jess Lord, dean of admission and financial aid at Haverford College in Pennsylvania puts it, "everybody's imperfect." "Since that's true for all (students), those that por. tray that aspect of themselves are that much more authentic." How do colleges find authenticity? They look for evidence of interests and passions across the ~pplic~tion in essays, mterv1ews , recommendations and extracurricular activities. "What we see are the connections," said Christopher Gruber, dean of admission and financial aid at Davidson College in North Carolina. If a student claims working in student government has been a meaningful experience, it's a ·more credible claim if recommenders have picked on that as well . "That, in my m.ind,' gives authenticity to an application, when you're reading things m.ore than once,'; Gruber smd. But in the age of the hyper-achieving student,. authc;nticity doesn't always come easy. Some schools. such as MIT, now specifically ask students to write about disappointment or failure. Many can only come up with a predictable and transparent answer: perfectionism. Will Dix, a counselor at the University of Chicago Laboratory High School, y;ho also spent eight years m the Amherst College admissions office, struggles to , persuade students that essays about doubt and uncertainty can be at least as interesting to admissions officers as those with a conclusion that's sweeping but implausibly confident for a 17-year-old. "No one expects you to solve the mystery of life," Dix says. "I sometimes get in trouble with parents for advising that. They' II say, '(colleges) will think he doesn't know anything."' Dix counters by paraphrasmg Socrates via Donald Rumsfeld: "The first thing is to know what you don't know." .

"Sometimes it's a typo," he says. "I don't want my students to sound like robots. It's pretty easy to fall into that trap of trying to do everything perfectly and there's no spark left." What Goodman is going for is "authenticity" - an increasingly hot selling point in college admissions as a new year rolls around. In an age when applicants all seem to have volunieered, played sports and traveled abroad, colleges are wary of slick packaging. They 're drawn to high grades and test scores, of course, but also to humility and to students who really got something out of their experiences, not just those trying to impress colleges with their resume. The trend seemingly should make life easier for students - by reducing the pressure to puff up their ere,dentials. Bl!t that's not always the case. For some students, the challenge of presenting themselves as full, flawed people cuts against every-. thing else they've been tolp about applying to college - to show off as much as possible. At the other extreme, when a college signals what it's looking for, students inevitably try to provide it. So you get some stu.dents trying to fake authenticity, to package themselves as unpackaged. "There's a little bit of an arms race going on," says Goodman, who is based in Washington. "If I'm being more authentic than you are, you have to be more authentic · next month to keep up with the Joneses." Colleges say what they want is honest, reflective students. As Jess Lord, dean of admission and financial aid at Haverford College in Pennsylvania puts it, "everybody's imperfect." "Since that's true for all (students), those that por. tray that aspect of themselves are that much more authentic." How do colleges find authenticity? They look for evidence of interests and passions across the ~pplic~tion in essays, mterv1ews , recommendations and extracurricular activities. "What we see are the connections," said Christopher Gruber, dean of admission and financial aid at Davidson College in North Carolina. If a student claims working in student government has been a meaningful experience, it's a ·more credible claim if recommenders have picked on that as well . "That, in my m.ind,' gives authenticity to an application, when you're reading things m.ore than once,'; Gruber smd. But in the age of the hyper-achieving student,. authc;nticity doesn't always come easy. Some schools. such as MIT, now specifically ask students to write about disappointment or failure. Many can only come up with a predictable and transparent answer: perfectionism. Will Dix, a counselor at the University of Chicago Laboratory High School, y;ho also spent eight years m the Amherst College admissions office, struggles to , persuade students that essays about doubt and uncertainty can be at least as interesting to admissions officers as those with a conclusion that's sweeping but implausibly confident for a 17-year-old. "No one expects you to solve the mystery of life," Dix says. "I sometimes get in trouble with parents for advising that. They' II say, '(colleges) will think he doesn't know anything."' Dix counters by paraphrasmg Socrates via Donald Rumsfeld: "The first thing is to know what you don't know." .

But "Mad Men" (which airs Thursday at I 0 p.m. EDT) didn't stop there. With wit, savvy and a luster somehow befitting that bygone era, the series is restoring a distant moment to us, as if it were our own. Which, of course, it always was. "Mad Men" vividly reminds us that the many pronounced differences between then and now are only exceeded by similarities we all grapple with. Like what it means to be a grown-up. "Kids today, they have no one tn look up to," Don Draper stated on a recent episode. "'Cause they're looking up to us." The linchpin of "Mad Men," Draper is creative director of the Sterling Cooper ad agency. As played by 1on Harnrn ("We Were Soldiers"), he is smooth, droll and cynical. And, at 32, he presides as an adult even while haunted by self-doubt that he qualifies. He may also worry that the image of adulthood he modeled himself on is about AP photo In this 2006 photo provided by AMC, actor John Hamm portrays Don Draper, the creative director of the Sterling Cooper Advertising Agency in the AMC dramatic series "Mad Men." to go through an unsettling reversal. "Mad Men" is lodged on the portentous overlap of the 1950s' epic cautiousness and the so-called 1960s, when the times (as everybody found out) would be achangin'. / Even so, in 1960 "Mad Men's" patriarchy of whitecollar WASP career men remains largely intact. Women (meaning "girls") make do with a secondary role in the system. Blacks and Jews aren ' t really welcome. Cigarettes, booze and extrarnantal affairs are always welcome. . And seniority trumps youth. But not for much longer. On a future episode, Sterling Cooper execs discuss the pros and cons of accepting ~ichard Nixon as a client for his presidential race. Elderly founding partner The British are coming: English actors invading U.S. prime time this fall BY BRIDGET BYRNE FOR THE ~SSOCIATED PRESS LONDON - A bevy of British actors, most sporting American accents, are being yanked across the pond and into U.S. prime time this fall. "Everybody's going!" exclaims Sophia Myles as she wiUted, bags packed, for her work visa to arrive. The British beauty's movie credits include Isolde in the historical romance "Tristan & Isolde" and the ·upcoming sci-fi action ftlm "Outlander." But now she's reporter Beth Turner in "Moonlight," the vampiretherned crime series premiering on CBS Sept. 28. Kevin. McKidd wasn't "going to do it" when first offered the role of time-traveling American journalist Dan Vassar in "Journeyman," debuting on NBC Sept. 24. But Ltam Neeson, with whom he worked c:in the movie "Kin~dorn of Heaven," took him aside and suggested he "rethink." He did, and now the Scottish actor, familiar to HBO viewers as Lucius Vorenus in the historical drama "Rome," has moved his family to Los Angeles. "Luckily I have a brave wife who knows the game. It's a gamble, but then this life always is," he says. "It's a big commitment to say 'Yes' to something that could be for potentially five years," says Damian Lewis, whose TV credits include HBO's "Band of Brothers." But the Londoner has made that commitment, signing on as Charlie Crews, an L.A. cop freed after years of wrongful imprisonment in the NBC series "Life," debuting Sept. 26. Also premiering that night is NBC's remake of the sci-fi series " Bionic Woman," starring British actress Michelle Ryan. She's little known in the U.S. but famous at home after appearing in more than 300 episodes of the popular BBC soap "EastEnders." Lancashire-born Anna Friel plays . Charlotte "Chuck" Charles in ABC's raising-the-dead crime series " Pushing Dai sies," premiering Oct. 3. Zuleikha Robinson, born weigh in ... " They can, and will, at least a bit longer. But tn 1960 the sacred order ts imperiled. "Don't trust anyone over 30" would be the chant heard not only in the streets, but all across society, within a few years. · Even people over 30 would, on some level, stop trusting themselves as they began to look toward youngsters for cues on how to get along. Soon a real-life ad agency would hatch · a jingle that, like much advertisi ng, says nothing, but everything: "Now, it's Pepsi, for those who think young." The younger generation was about to become the driving force of pop culture. Nearly a half-century later, even with the population signifi cantly aging, youth would still reign. Can Draper · (a nd the agency he works for) adapt? On this week's episode, he allows himself to get dragged by his independentminded girlfriend to a Greenwich Village coffee house for a poetry reading. With his sharply tailored suit and skimmed-back hair, Draper looks out of place, to say the least. No wonder a shaggy, bearded Beat artist and schooled in England, is New York police detective Eva Marquez in "New Amsterdam," Fox's midseason crime series with an immortal theme. Lena Headey, born m Bermuda but raised in Yorkshire, is the title star of ABC's rnidseason series "The Sarah Connor Chronicles," the further exploits of the heroine in ''The Terminator" film franchise. Also planned for midseason is CBS' free-Jove drama "Swingtown," in which Jack (Commodore Davenport James Norringion in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies) plays one of the husbands, Bruce Miller. "They don't really care where you are from as long as you do the job," says Julian Ovenden, who after working in England in popular series like " Foyle's War," took on the challenge of corning to America a few years ago to audition during Hollywood's frenzied pilot season. He found it "tough," but eventually landed on the short-lived WB series "Related." Now he's smoothing his American accent to play love-interest Eric Burden In ABC's selty career-girl series "Cashmere Mafia," premiering Nov. 27. Ed Westwick, 20, came to Los Angeles earlier this year for "my first crack at pilot season." Now he's Chuck, one of the teenagers in the prep-school drama "Gossip Gtrl," premiering Sept. 19 on the CW, which is always eager for fresh young talent. Teenage musician Calvin Goldspink was picked . for the CW's "Life Is Wild" • premiering Oct 7. But he won't need a dialog_!le coach, as he 's playing a Brit named Oliver in the youthorie.nted family drama. British actors say they're attracted to American prime time for se veral reasons. "There's not really a film industry in En~land and the quality of TV tn America is so hi gh," says Myles, noting · the tradeoff for having to spend time away from fam ily and friends. "U.K. TV is being dumbed down a lot," notes Lewis, adding that when you do a U.S. network show "you are part of an enormous studio system and have that feeling of being in a much larger community than in England." Ovenden puts it another way: "TV in America has more ambition." But why is U.S. television inviting the British over in the first place? Theories abound. Some insiders suggest it might have to do with the success of Hugh Laurie, once best known as the utterly English Bertie Wooster but now Ernrnynominated for portraying t\le acerbic Arnencan medic in the highly rated Fox series "House." Or maybe British talent is "just cheaper," teases Headey, who recently settled into a not-so-cheap new home in the Hollywood Hills. Or it could be the appeal of the British style of acting, theorizes Westwick, who recalls one Hollywood casting director telling him that "American actors think · about their face and their voice, but don 't use their bodies enough." · McKidd notes the British invasion is probably just "coincidence, as everybody 's story about how they got here is very different." Myles got a letter "on proper Warner Bros. stationery" inviting her to take the "Moonlight" role after the studio decided to recast the pilot. Ryan sent in an audition tape. "I really didn't expect to get it," she says, "though I knew my accent was good." Robin son snagged the "New Amsterdam" rol e with a live audition. "The world is getting smaller and producers really cast a wider net," she says. Dav id Eick, executive producer of " Bionic Woman," says the proliferation of Briti sh stars this season isn't about " U.K. actors over American" but more likely due to a move away from the trend of casting big name TV . stars or established movie stars new to TV. "It's tilting back in the other direction, he says, "to the realization that TV is a star-makin g medium and fresh faces and new blood can break through." Bertram Cooper (played by Robert Morse) doe sn' t care for Nixon's probable Democratic rival, John F. Kennedy. He's just a kid, immature. "He doesn't even wear a hat," says Coop. But account eltecutive Pete tarnpbell (Vincent Kartheiser), who's 26, pipes up with a warning. " You kn ow who else doesn't wear a hat ?'' he says. "Elvis. That's what we're de~ling with." · Coop's 50-ish partner, Roger Sterling (John Slattery), isn't ready to buy it.

"People want to be told what to do so badly that they 'II listen to anyone,'' counters Draper, who wants nothing more than to get his girlfriend back to her apartment and in bed. Earlier in the episode, we find Draper in bed with his wife in their comfortable Westchester home. Lovely marginalized wife-a nd -mother Betty (January Jones) is tender, playful and a little unhinged as the scene unfolds.

But "Mad Men" (which airs Thursday at I 0 p.m. EDT) didn't stop there. With wit, savvy and a luster somehow befitting that bygone era, the series is restoring a distant moment to us, as if it were our own. Which, of course, it always was. "Mad Men" vividly reminds us that the many pronounced differences between then and now are only exceeded by similarities we all grapple with. Like what it means to be a grown-up. "Kids today, they have no one tn look up to," Don Draper stated on a recent episode. "'Cause they're looking up to us." The linchpin of "Mad Men," Draper is creative director of the Sterling Cooper ad agency. As played by 1on Harnrn ("We Were Soldiers"), he is smooth, droll and cynical. And, at 32, he presides as an adult even while haunted by self-doubt that he qualifies. He may also worry that the image of adulthood he modeled himself on is about AP photo In this 2006 photo provided by AMC, actor John Hamm portrays Don Draper, the creative director of the Sterling Cooper Advertising Agency in the AMC dramatic series "Mad Men." to go through an unsettling reversal. "Mad Men" is lodged on the portentous overlap of the 1950s' epic cautiousness and the so-called 1960s, when the times (as everybody found out) would be achangin'. / Even so, in 1960 "Mad Men's" patriarchy of whitecollar WASP career men remains largely intact. Women (meaning "girls") make do with a secondary role in the system. Blacks and Jews aren ' t really welcome. Cigarettes, booze and extrarnantal affairs are always welcome. . And seniority trumps youth. But not for much longer. On a future episode, Sterling Cooper execs discuss the pros and cons of accepting ~ichard Nixon as a client for his presidential race. Elderly founding partner The British are coming: English actors invading U.S. prime time this fall BY BRIDGET BYRNE FOR THE ~SSOCIATED PRESS LONDON - A bevy of British actors, most sporting American accents, are being yanked across the pond and into U.S. prime time this fall. "Everybody's going!" exclaims Sophia Myles as she wiUted, bags packed, for her work visa to arrive. The British beauty's movie credits include Isolde in the historical romance "Tristan & Isolde" and the ·upcoming sci-fi action ftlm "Outlander." But now she's reporter Beth Turner in "Moonlight," the vampiretherned crime series premiering on CBS Sept. 28. Kevin. McKidd wasn't "going to do it" when first offered the role of time-traveling American journalist Dan Vassar in "Journeyman," debuting on NBC Sept. 24. But Ltam Neeson, with whom he worked c:in the movie "Kin~dorn of Heaven," took him aside and suggested he "rethink." He did, and now the Scottish actor, familiar to HBO viewers as Lucius Vorenus in the historical drama "Rome," has moved his family to Los Angeles. "Luckily I have a brave wife who knows the game. It's a gamble, but then this life always is," he says. "It's a big commitment to say 'Yes' to something that could be for potentially five years," says Damian Lewis, whose TV credits include HBO's "Band of Brothers." But the Londoner has made that commitment, signing on as Charlie Crews, an L.A. cop freed after years of wrongful imprisonment in the NBC series "Life," debuting Sept. 26. Also premiering that night is NBC's remake of the sci-fi series " Bionic Woman," starring British actress Michelle Ryan. She's little known in the U.S. but famous at home after appearing in more than 300 episodes of the popular BBC soap "EastEnders." Lancashire-born Anna Friel plays . Charlotte "Chuck" Charles in ABC's raising-the-dead crime series " Pushing Dai sies," premiering Oct. 3. Zuleikha Robinson, born weigh in ... " They can, and will, at least a bit longer. But tn 1960 the sacred order ts imperiled. "Don't trust anyone over 30" would be the chant heard not only in the streets, but all across society, within a few years. · Even people over 30 would, on some level, stop trusting themselves as they began to look toward youngsters for cues on how to get along. Soon a real-life ad agency would hatch · a jingle that, like much advertisi ng, says nothing, but everything: "Now, it's Pepsi, for those who think young." The younger generation was about to become the driving force of pop culture. Nearly a half-century later, even with the population signifi cantly aging, youth would still reign. Can Draper · (a nd the agency he works for) adapt? On this week's episode, he allows himself to get dragged by his independentminded girlfriend to a Greenwich Village coffee house for a poetry reading. With his sharply tailored suit and skimmed-back hair, Draper looks out of place, to say the least. No wonder a shaggy, bearded Beat artist and schooled in England, is New York police detective Eva Marquez in "New Amsterdam," Fox's midseason crime series with an immortal theme. Lena Headey, born m Bermuda but raised in Yorkshire, is the title star of ABC's rnidseason series "The Sarah Connor Chronicles," the further exploits of the heroine in ''The Terminator" film franchise. Also planned for midseason is CBS' free-Jove drama "Swingtown," in which Jack (Commodore Davenport James Norringion in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies) plays one of the husbands, Bruce Miller. "They don't really care where you are from as long as you do the job," says Julian Ovenden, who after working in England in popular series like " Foyle's War," took on the challenge of corning to America a few years ago to audition during Hollywood's frenzied pilot season. He found it "tough," but eventually landed on the short-lived WB series "Related." Now he's smoothing his American accent to play love-interest Eric Burden In ABC's selty career-girl series "Cashmere Mafia," premiering Nov. 27. Ed Westwick, 20, came to Los Angeles earlier this year for "my first crack at pilot season." Now he's Chuck, one of the teenagers in the prep-school drama "Gossip Gtrl," premiering Sept. 19 on the CW, which is always eager for fresh young talent. Teenage musician Calvin Goldspink was picked . for the CW's "Life Is Wild" • premiering Oct 7. But he won't need a dialog_!le coach, as he 's playing a Brit named Oliver in the youthorie.nted family drama. British actors say they're attracted to American prime time for se veral reasons. "There's not really a film industry in En~land and the quality of TV tn America is so hi gh," says Myles, noting · the tradeoff for having to spend time away from fam ily and friends. "U.K. TV is being dumbed down a lot," notes Lewis, adding that when you do a U.S. network show "you are part of an enormous studio system and have that feeling of being in a much larger community than in England." Ovenden puts it another way: "TV in America has more ambition." But why is U.S. television inviting the British over in the first place? Theories abound. Some insiders suggest it might have to do with the success of Hugh Laurie, once best known as the utterly English Bertie Wooster but now Ernrnynominated for portraying t\le acerbic Arnencan medic in the highly rated Fox series "House." Or maybe British talent is "just cheaper," teases Headey, who recently settled into a not-so-cheap new home in the Hollywood Hills. Or it could be the appeal of the British style of acting, theorizes Westwick, who recalls one Hollywood casting director telling him that "American actors think · about their face and their voice, but don 't use their bodies enough." · McKidd notes the British invasion is probably just "coincidence, as everybody 's story about how they got here is very different." Myles got a letter "on proper Warner Bros. stationery" inviting her to take the "Moonlight" role after the studio decided to recast the pilot. Ryan sent in an audition tape. "I really didn't expect to get it," she says, "though I knew my accent was good." Robin son snagged the "New Amsterdam" rol e with a live audition. "The world is getting smaller and producers really cast a wider net," she says. Dav id Eick, executive producer of " Bionic Woman," says the proliferation of Briti sh stars this season isn't about " U.K. actors over American" but more likely due to a move away from the trend of casting big name TV . stars or established movie stars new to TV. "It's tilting back in the other direction, he says, "to the realization that TV is a star-makin g medium and fresh faces and new blood can break through." Bertram Cooper (played by Robert Morse) doe sn' t care for Nixon's probable Democratic rival, John F. Kennedy. He's just a kid, immature. "He doesn't even wear a hat," says Coop. But account eltecutive Pete tarnpbell (Vincent Kartheiser), who's 26, pipes up with a warning. " You kn ow who else doesn't wear a hat ?'' he says. "Elvis. That's what we're de~ling with." · Coop's 50-ish partner, Roger Sterling (John Slattery), isn't ready to buy it.

How do you· night ?" · "On a bed made of money," Draper coolly replies. "You hucksters in your tower created the religion of mass consumption." "People want to be told what to do so badly that they 'II listen to anyone,'' counters Draper, who wants nothing more than to get his girlfriend back to her apartment and in bed. Earlier in the episode, we find Draper in bed with his wife in their comfortable Westchester home. Lovely marginalized wife-a nd -mother Betty (January Jones) is tender, playful and a little unhinged as the scene unfolds. It's Mother's Day, and she mi$ses her own deceased mother. , "Mourning is just exterfd~ "\ ed self- pity," Don cautions her. Then things turn flirtatious.

Homeowners who have sold a home in the past are well aware that before the "For Sale" sign gets staked out in the front yard, sever• al steps need to be taken to make a home more attractive to prospective buyers. Improving the exterior of home before sale is what's known as increasing its curb appeal. Firsttime home sellers would be surprised what a few seemingly minor changes on the outside can do to make a home more attractive to buyers. In addition, it never hurts to pull a few tricks on the inside as well. • Trim trees; bushes and shrubs: Few thinss are more unsightly outside a home than vegetation that's not well taken care of. Unkempt vegetation gives the impression that owners weren't fond of upkeep and might have let other things slide as well. Make sure all trees, bushes and shrubs are well-trimmed before any prospective buyers come over to look at the house. • Clean tbe patio: An attractive area.for many home buyc;rs is the patio. Most will want an area outside to relax and have a barbecue. Clean your patio thoroughly and replace any old furniture to highlight how valuable a nice outdoor space this can be. • Create an inviting aroma: Once homeowners enter a home, there are a number of tricks sellers can use to make the home more ·attractive. l!'s not uncommon for real estate agents to suggest baking a loaf of bread or other food that smells great shortly before the house is shown. Close the windows and oven fan when doing so to maximize the resulting aroma and allow it to spread throughout the house. For areas of the house where the baking smells can't reach, try other tricks but avoid using potpourri. A lot of people are allergic to pot- pourri and may not be able to continue their tour of the house if the smell is too prevalent. • Use your fireplace to your advantage: If your home has a frreplace and you're selling it in colder months, by all means light the fireplace before showing the house. Lots of people dream of having a home with a functioning fireplace so make it a focal point whenever possible. • Create illusions: You don't need to be David Copperfield or Harry Houdini to create illusions that make your home appear more spacious than it really is. Instead, remove any excess furniture that isn't absolutely necessary for the times when ·you're not showing the house. Chances are, rooms in your home appear cluttered to . people who don't live there, and clutter creates the illusion that a place is small. Do the opposite by removing excess furniture and you might even like the resulting extra . space as well. Replacing old patio furniture is one easy way for home sellers to make their home more attractive . . mist at the National Association of Home Builders.

Against this backdrop, the central bank sliced the rate it .charges banks for loans, ·a narrowly tailored move aimed at propping up sagging financial markets.

A cut to the funds rate would bring lower intere~t rates for millions of people and businesses.
