Home sought
for radioactive
waste left by
Ohio plant
CINCINNATI (AP)
Thremened with a lawsuit if
radioactive waste is sent to
Nevada. the U.S. Department
of Energy is looking for alternative storage and disposal
sites for the waste from a former uranium processing plant
in southwest Ohio.
At the Energy Department's
direction, the company it
hired for the ongoing cleanup
of the Fernald site sent out
requests last week seeking
companies that cou ld store
and dispose of the waste. said
Jeff Wagner. a spokesman for
Fluor Fernald. the cleanup
company. Interested companies have 30 days to respond,
Wagner said Monday.
Wagner said it is the first
time the Energy Department
has taken such a step since
Nevada's attorney general
threatened a lawsuit if the
government gives a 45-day
notice of its intent to ship the
wastes there. The Energy
Department hasn't given that
notice. ofilcials said.
The wastes are stored in 50year-uld .:uncrete si los on the
1.050-acre Fernald site.
which processed uranium for
the government's production
ebewhere
of
nuclear
weapons. The processing
work ceased in 1989 to focus
on the cleanup.
Fluor Fernald is already
pumping wastes from two of
the three ' ilos into new metal
holding tanks nearby and
could fin ish that process by
early next year, before
demolishing the silos at the
site about 18 miles northwest
of Cincinnati.
The Energy Department

on its plan to dispose of the
wastes at its weapons test
site in the Nevada desert,
but is looking at other
options in light of Nevada's
threat to sue. said Bill
Taylor, director . uf the
Energy
Department's
Fernald office. A final decision would be made by
Energy Department officials
at
headquarters
1n
Washington. Taylor said.
The department's Nevada
Test Site, located about 65
miles north of Las Vegas. is
larger than Rhode Island. It
hosted about 1,000 atomic
weapons tests from the 1950s
to 1992. and sti ll hosts tests
the government says do not

involve nuclear explosions.
Fluor Fernald has received
initial interest from some
companies, Taylor said. He
declined to identify them
because it could ultimately
involve competition for a tedera! contract.
The leader of a Fernald
neighbors ' organization that
has lobbi ed the Energy
Department for 20 year.s to
clean up the site said shejsn't
happy with the E~rgy
Department's hesitation on
where to take the silo waste.

Holocaust exhibit includes
testimonies of liberators, liberated
CINCINNATI (AP)
Henry Meyer was a Jewish teen
imprisoned by Adolf Hitler's
regime. Elmer Reis was a U.S.
Army soldier who helped liberate the Nazis' Ohrdruf camp in
Germany where Meyer had
been a prisoner.
'
Meyer and
Reis didn't meet
until last year, as their
accounts of the horrors of
Nazi Germany's death camps
were being prepared for a
Holocaust exhibit at Hebrew
Union
College-Jewish
Institute of Religion, a training center for rabbis.
The videotaped accounts of
both men - and others who
liberated or were liberated
from the camps - were
added thi s past week to the
college's "Mapping Our
Tears·· exhibit. where visitors
view the videotapes in an attic
sett ing similar to those that
Jewish fugitive s might have
used as shelter from persecution by the Nazis.
Rcis. 87. lm Army military
policeman with an armored division when he and other soldiers
entered the Ohrdruf camp. said
in an interview Friday that he
can close his eyes and still picture the horrors he saw: bodies
of Jewish prisoners stacked "like
cordwood," with other freshly
slain prisoners arrdyed on the
ground blindfolded. their hands
tied behind their backs and bullet
holes in the backs of their heads.
Prisoners had been forced to
burn piles of the bodies, which
had then been pushed into a pit
with a bulldozer, Reis said.
"It was revolting," said
Reis . a Cincinnati police
officer before and after his
military service who later
went to law school. "What I
'aw. it just shook my boots.
It wa' &lt;~w ful."
Rei' 'aid his military service agaimt an opponent that
threatened other nations
taught him a lifelong lesson.
·'There\ a price for free-

part of the 15 percent that the
government's cleanup plan
called for shipping elsewhere, said Lisa Crawford,
president
of
Fernald
Residents for Environmental
Safety and Health .
"It's disturbing to us
because we're sitting out here
with a big question mark,"
Crawford said Monday.
"We are not going to give
up now. We are not keeping
this stuff," she said of the silo
wastes.
A company called Waste
Control Specialists has said
the silo wastes could safely be

stored at the company's hazardous waste facility in rural
west Texas. The company has
requested approval from the
Texas Department of State
Health Services to accept the
Fernald waste. Environmental
groups in Texas are opposing
having it shipped there.
The silo cleanup is the last
major challenge in the
Energy Department's effort
to finish the Fernald cleanup
by 2006. Crawford said she
worries that the delays in the
silo project could make it
impossible to finish all the
work by 2006.

DELAWARE (AP) - A
pilot whose sing le-engine
plane crashed into a shallow
area of a state park reservoir
freed himself from the
wreckage despite broken
legs, authorities said.
Mark Burton Murphy, 46,
of Harpster, made it to the
east bank of the Alum Creek
State Park reservoir, where
his plane crashed about 4 p.m.
Sunday in water 3 to 4 feet
deep 25 yards from shore.
A pilot flying over the
park radioed that he saw the
plane upside down in the
reservoir around 4:50 p.m.,
FAA spokesman Tony
Molinaro said.
Murphy, who was flying
alone, was alert when rescuers found him, Genoa

He was treated at the scene
for hypothermia and then
flown by helicopter to Grant

Columbus.
He was in fair condition
early Monday, a nursing
supervi sor said.
The · plane apparently
caught a power line on its
landing gear, said Troy
Morris. fire chief of the TriCounty Fire Department.
About 1.000 electric

after the · crash.

Dresden, Germany, to a family of musicians and had been
a child prodigy on the violin

Meyer said he was saved
from likely execution only
when he told a doctor in the
Nazi camp that he had been a
violinist. and the doctor remembered seeing him perlorm. The
doctor saved Meyer's life by
switching his identity with that

"He changed the registration cards and l was alive

DEAR ABBY: In 1996. in
memory of a 19-year-old battered woman who was murdered by her boyfriend, you
printed an item requested by
her family. It changed my life.
On March 29 of that year, my
dad said, "I have something
for you," and handed me your
column. It contained a list of
15 warning signs of a batterer.
It was my wake-up call.
At first I thought, "How can
this help ME?" Well, it did .
No. I took me back to the
beginning of my relationship
with my fiance. By the time I
reached No .. 15, I had
reviewed the past seven years
of my life.
Few realize how important' a
role verbal abuse and criticism
play in an abuser's efforts to
gain control and keep you
from leaving. The verbal
abuse was harder for me to
deal with than being kicked in
the back when I'd walk away
from one of his outbursts.
After reading that column. I
finally understood there was
nothing I could change about
myself that would make him
love me. Thank yrnt, Abby. I
wish I could let the'Tamily of
the 19-year-old woman know
they changed my life. GRATEFUL IN ILLINOIS
DEAR
GRATEFUL:
People often ask if I ever hear

Dear
Abby

from readers letting me ~now
how my columns have affected them. The answer is yes,
and today I'll reprint that list
in YOUR honor.
(I) PUSHES FOR QUICK
INVOLVEMENT: Comes on
strong, claiming. "I've never
felt loved like this by anyone."
An abuser pressures the new
partner for an exclusive commitment almost immediately.
(2) JEALOUS Excessively
possessive; calls constantly or
visits unexpectedly; prevents
you from going to work
because "you might meet
someone";
checks
the
mileage on your car.
CONTROLLING:
(3)
Interrogate s you intensely
(especially if you're late)
about whom you talked to and
where you were; keeps allth~
money; insists you ask permission to go anywhere or do
anything.
UNREALISTIC
(4)
EXPECTATIONS: Expects

you to be the perfect mate and
meet his or her every need.
(5) ISOLATION : Tries to
cut you off from family and
friends; al:l:uses people who
are your slfpporters of "causing trouble." The abuser may
deprive you of a phone or car.
or try to prevent yuu from
holding a jub.
16) BLAMES OTHERS
FOR PROBLEMS OR MISTAKES : lt'.s always someone
else's fault if something goe'
wrong.
17) MAKES OTHERS
RESPONSIBLE . POR HIS
OR HER FEELINGS : The
abuser says. "You make me
angry," instead of " I am
angry." or says. ·'You're hurting me by not doing what I
tell you "
(8) HYPERSENSITIVITY:
Is easi ly insulted, claiming
hurt. feelings when he or she is
really mad. Rants about the
injustice of things that are just
a part of life.
(9) CRUELTY TO ANIMALS OR CHILDREN:
Kills or punishes animals brutally. Also may expect chi ldren to do things that are far
beyond their ability (whips a
3-year-old for wetting a dillper) or may tease them until
they cry. Sixty- five percent
of abusers who beat their partner will also abuse children.

I I0 J "PLAYFUL" USE OF
FORCE DURING SEX:
EnJOY' throwing you down or
holding you down against
your will during sex: find' the
idea of rape exdting.
.il l ) VERB.AL ABUSE:
Cothtantly criticizes or says
blatantly
cruel
things:

involve sleep deprivation.
waking you with relentle"
verbal abuse.
( 12) RIGID GENDER
ROLES : Expects you to
serve. obey. remain at home .
(13! SUDDEN MOOD
SWI:'&gt;IGS: Switches from
sweet to violent in minutes.
( 14 ) PAST BATTERING :
Admits to hitting a mate in the
past . but says the person
"made" him (or her) do it.
I 15 ) THREATS OF VIOLENCE : Says things like.
''I'll break your neck." or ''I'll
kill yotl, .. and then dismisses
them with. "Everybody talk\
that way." ur. "I didn ' t really
mean it."

Banquet
Questions timing
Dear Editor:
While nearly all community organizations are constantly
f&lt;;~rced to adjust their schedules around school athletic events.
it seems a request for the reverse is quite impossible.
For sev~ral years. the fall athletic banquet at Meigs High
has been set on the third Tuesday of Novemeber. Then, hours
upon hours of "speechifying" .go on into the late hours of the
evening on a school night when students need to be home
studying. Orten. parents and students get up and leave in the
middle of this marathon.
Fearing that a third Tuesday would again be used for the
banquet with only eight days prior to that date, I called. Again,
llearneu that the banquet ·was set on the third Tuesday, despite
my request. I pleaded that only the third Tuesday was a problem. Any other date was su itable. I received a plethora of
excuses (few of which were true reasons). It seems the personal wishes of the paid coaching staff take precedence over
community needs. The educational unsoundness of a weeknight and very lengthy evening banquet didn't change minds.
Neither did a Sunday afternoon banquet because "none of
the coaches are for it. " I am assuming this would interfere
with Sundav afternoon football on television . At least one
other county school district has very successful Sunday afternoon banquets. which was even admitted by the athletic
department.
The lack of knowledge of the fall banquet's timing until
eight days prior gave no ability to make changes for my organization's banquet. When the fact that this date must have
been predetermined far in advance of being announced, this
fact was adamantly denied even though nearly all the reasons
for the choice of this date -except potential tournament play
- were obviously known well in advance.
There is n~ perfect date for an event with so many involved.
However, other than coaches' dislike of Sunday afternoon, no
other reason existed for having the banquet then. Interference
with students' study was not even considered for cancelling a
weekday .evening banquet. That seems odd for an educational
institution. don't you think? And then one wonders \l(hy people voted against the recent Meigs Local renewal levy.

Palestinian leader Yasser
Arafat is Exhibit A for the
proposition that the Nobel
Peace Prize Committee in
,Norway needs to adopt a provision allowing the prize to be
revoked in case of bad behavior.
Not only did Arafat debase
the premise for his award; he
made it honifically difficult
for any other Palestinian to be
a peacemaker. He fostered a
culture of suicide among his
people that may be impossible
to undo.
Arafat received the peace
prize in 1994 along with
Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak
Rabin and Foreign Minister
Shimon Peres for beginning a
Mideast peace process.
But in 2000, after Rabin had
been martyred for his efforts
and his successor, Ehud
Barak, offered Arafat the most
generous
peace
plan
Palestinians are ever going to
get, Arafat balked and
launched a wave of violence
that hasn't ceased.
History, if it is written honestly, will record Arafat as a
murderous teiTOrist. He had
the opportunity to be a Moses
for his people, but he refused
to allow them to obtain their
Promised Land.
He became leader of the
Palestinian people through
decades of violence and
intrigue - plane hijackings,
bloody civil wars in Jordan
and Lebanon, the murder of
Israeli athletes in Munich.
From its inception, his organization was dedicated to Israel's
uestruction.
Under Rabin, he was
allowed into Palestine and permitted to establish a governing
authority. It was rife with cor-

ruption and run as a dictatorship. Though Arafat formally
acknowledged Israel's right to
exist. his propaganda was
• ceaselessly anti-Semitic.
The story is told of an Amb
watching Rabin and Arafat
together on television. Asked
what struck him. the man
replied, "Rabin wears a plastic
watch. Arafat has oo a diamond Rolex."
Israel, under Barak, was prepared to give the Palestinians a
state with a piece of Jerusalem
to call their capital. They
would have controlled all of
Gaza and roughly 95 percent
of the West Bank tenitory captured by Israel in the 1967 war.
The United States, Israel ,
Europe and the rest of the
world had every interest in
seeing the new Palestinian
state prosper economically.
Palestinians are well-educated
and hard-working. Their country could have blossomed.
But Arafat possibly
because he teared Rabin's fate
- refused the bargain and
launched the so-called Second
Intifada, waged with automatic weapons. Barak's government fell, to be succeeded by
one headed · by right-winger
Ariel Sharon, who will offer
Palestinians a deal, but not
Barak's.
· Democrats and Europeans

condemn President Bush for
refusing to follow up on peace
efforts launched by Barak and
President Bill Clinton, and for
allowing the Mideast situation
to fester.
In fact, Bush understood
that there was no peace to be
made with Arafat and that
Sharon had to create new realities - including the isolation
of Arafat and military control
over the West Bank - before
any new talks could start.
Bush has tried now to
engage two Palestinian prime
ministers, but progress was
thwarted each time by ...
Arafat. And the hatred spewed
toward Jews by Arafat-domi·
nated Palestinian radio and
television stoked continuing
violence against Israelis.
Arafat made pronouncements decrying suicide bombings against Israelis, but he did
nothing tn contain Hamas and
l slami~· Jihad, the extreme
lsltmlist groups that encouraged
young people to Strap explosive
belts arounu themselves and
blow up markets and pizza parlors full of civilians.
· To contain the violence,
Sharon's government is building a security fence between
Israelis and Palestinians. It is
largely serving its purpose bombings are dramatically
reduced - but it cruelly cuts
off
Palestinians
from
Palestinians. However, it
could be moved.
The late Abba Eban, long
Israel's most eloquent diplomat. famously said that "the
Palestinians never miss an
opportunity to miss an opportunity."
Now, with Arafat's death,
they have yet another opportu·

nity. They can hold peaceful
democratic elections. They
can choose a government that
serves its people instead of
stealing its money. They can
accept Sharon's latest offer.
It's much less than the Bantle
offer. Sharon wants to withdraw Israeli control over the
despemte Gaza Strip and territory twice that size in the West
Bank.
The new Palestinian government should take what's
offered. govern it well. contain
violence and appeal to the
world to insist that Israel give
more. 1' 111 convinced tha.t
Israel would - if its people
felt, at last. that Palestinians
were actually Willing to live
side by side in peace.
President Bush should make
it clear that this is a process he
will foster. Indeed, he has done
just that. Should he appoint a
special Mideast envoy? Sure
- if the Palestinians show
signs of moving in the right
direction. It's worth noting that
Bush has appointed envoys
before. But they got nowhere.
Now it's up to the
Palestinians. There's every
reason to fear that, owing to
Arafat's intluence, they will
miss their opportunity once
again. undergoing a violent
transition and possibly seeing
the lslamists gain in iniluence.
That would be suicide suicide for the hopes of the
Palestinian people. a choice of
death over life, and of continued degradation over the possibility of prosperity. If that's
their choice, it's their depaned
leader's doing. Arafat. R.I.P.

COLUMBUS , Ohio (APJ
Four patients have
received transplants in the
past two weeks in a statewide
program that uses a computer
database to arrange kidney
swaps for patient-donor pairs
who don't match each other
but fit with another pair, doc·
tors said.
Michigan and Indiana are
interested in joining Ohio's
registry, which would more
than double the eight hospi·
tals now participating, said
Dr. E. Steve Woodle. a surgeon and transplant program
director at the University of
Cincinnati.
About 20 patients have
been enrolled in the last three
months after several months
of computer testing and getting transplant programs
signed up, Woodle said. The
Ohio Health Department
announced the program one
year ago.
Ron Lazar, 57, of North
Canton, was getting his new
kidney at the Cleveland Clinic
last Tuesday at the same
moment his wife, Kathy, 54,
was donating hers at Akron
City Hospital. After years of
four-hour dialysi s three times
a week, his new · kidney
worked within 10 minutes.
The registry will help many
families, he said.
''There are plenty of husbands and wives and brothers
and sisters who want to give a
kidney. They just don ' t
match," Lazar said.
Each patient can have sever·
al willing donors entered in the
registry to increase the chances
of a·match, Woodle said.
The operations are done
simultaneously so the kid·
neys spend less time outside
of a body. The other swap

of Ohio in Toledo.
Similar registries operate in

and among six New England
states, but Ohio's is the ft.rSt
sponsored by a state health
department, said Annie Moore,
spokeswoman for · the United
Network for Organ Sharing.
Ohio's program used a grant
and $6,000 donations from the
hospitals to develop a computer program that assigns
point&gt; for blood and tissue
type; patient size, age and
health: and other factors that
go into a match. Woodle said.
The goal is to di stribute the

booklets and other materials

Lawmakers debate expanding corporate giving in campaigns

Honoring Swift Boat veteran John O'Neill
.,

LETTERS TO THE
EDITOR

Reader Services

PageA4.

Of all the targets of the villi- ·
ol and attempted ambushes
during the presidential campaign, I most admired John
O'Neill of the Swift Boat
Veterans for Truth for his calm
determination to stand his
ground on his charges against
John Kerry's Vietnam service
in the book "Unfit for
Command" that he coauthored.
O'Neill was called a "liar" to
his face on a number of TV
appearances, and, on an Oct.
14 "Nightline," ABC-TV's Ted
Koppel actually sent a crew to
Vietnam to film alleged eyewitnesses in order to disprove
one of the accounts - how
Kerry wori his Silver Star in "Unfit for Command."
Casually, ABC news director
Andrew Morse mentioned that
"the Vietnamese require an
official minder to accompany
journalists on reporting trips."
The minder-censor from the
Communist totalitarian state
was there, watching, to ensure
that the "eyewitnesses" stuck
to the government script.
On camera. O'Neill told
Koppel : "You went to a country where all the elections are
·100 percent elections. and you
relied bn people that were enemies of the United States" for
thi s "testimony." O'Neill
repeatedly showed Koppel
how the supposed eyewitnesses· contradicted Kerry's own
accounts in the past.
At first, the main~tream
media had ignored the charges
of the Swift Boat Veteran&gt;.
Alison Mitchell, deputy
national editor of The New
York Times admittcu to Editor
&amp; Publisher that she's "not

Nat
Hentoff

sure that in an era of no-cable
television we would even have
looked into (the Swift Boat
story)."
But, as happened with the
exposure of Dan Rather's use
of ultimately discredited documents to deride George W.
Bush's National Guard service, cable television and the
Internet allowed the public to
examine both sides of the
Swili Boat.Yeterans stories.
Moreover, in the front-page
Aug. 22 Washington Post
story, reporter Michael Dobbs
noted - as O'Neill often has
- that "although Kerry campaign officials insist that they
have published Kerry's full
military records on their Web
site (with the exception of
medkal recorus shown brieilv
to reporters earlier this year),
they have not permitted indc·
pendeni access to his original
Navy records."
When Dobbs tried to get
those Kerry records through a
Freedom of Information
request, he received just over
six pages and was told by the
Navy Personnel Command
that the lull me - consisting
of at .least I00 pages - could
not be relea&gt;ed unles- Kerry
himself signed a Standaru
Form 180 granting permi&gt;~~on.

To this day, Kerry has not
signed that release form.
In his story of one contested
episode during Kerry's service
in Vietnam, Dobbs found that
the edge was toward Kerry's
version. but that in Dobbs'
extensive interviews, the
accounts by both Kerry and
his Swift Boat opponents
"contain signiticant !laws and
factual errors." Only Kerry
refused to be interviewed for
the story.
Among the relatively few
reporters who have engaged in
substantial research on the
contentions of both sides, the
most painstakingly persisten~
has been Thomas Lipscomb in
his reports in the Chicago SunTimes and the New York Sun.
Lipscomb has found much
that credits O'Neill's charges,
and so have I.
.
Former publisher of Times
Books and an old-fashioned
joumalist in the tradition of
one of my mentors. George
Seldes, Lipscomb is an insis·
tent fact-checker, dogged until
he's ready to file his story.
Accordingly. a Lipscomb
report on the front-page of the
Nov.. I New York Sun begins:
"A forrner officer in the
Navy's Jud ~e Advocate
General Corps Reserve has
built a ca5t' that Senator Kerry
was other than honorably discharged from the Navy by
1975. ... The (subsequent
1978) 'honorable discharge' on
th~ Kerry Web ' ite.appearslu
he a Carter admi nistration suhstitute for an originaf action
expungeu from Mr. Kerry's
record."
If I were still teaching journalism, I would have the sttl-

dents study Lipscomb's entire
article ~s an example of the
quality of research that complex stories require. but do not
often get during the hurried
reporting in the present 24hour news cycle.
As that news cycle keeps
churning, a few other reporters
have taken the time to find out
more about the so-called Bush
opemtive John O'Neill. In both
the Aug. 28 New York Times
and Los Angeles Times, a
careful reader would have discovered that O'Neill voteu for
Democrats Hubert Humphrey
and, years later, AI Gore for
president. And his favorite
presidential candidate this
year (vas John Edwards. Also.
O'Neill has described George
W. Bush as an "empty suit."
Yet, on Election Day. historian Douglas Brinkley - who
wrote a hagiographic book on
Kerry, "Tour of Duty." triumphantly told the Financial
Times that the mainstream
media have "expo,ed Kerry's
critics as liars and frauds."
I would not take a course
with that careless historian :
but I respect O'Neill for his
coumge and his public service
for having enabled many
Americans to look much more
closely as John Kerry's presidential qualitlcations. And ,
indeed, the Swift Boat
Veterans did a lot to keojl
Kerry from the Oval Office.

Prosecutor says aide ruined his
career with harassment allegations
CINCINNATI (AP) Hamilton County Prosecutor
Mi chael Allen filed a court
cl aim Monday demanding
that an assistant prosecutor
pay damages for what he
said was an attempt to
destroy his career with allegations of sexual harassment.
Allen said his sexual relation ship
with
Rebecca
Collins was consensual, and
that she deliberately timed
her August lawsuit to ruin
his career. He asked for at

least $5 million in damages.
Afler Collins filed her lawsuit, Allen resigned as a del egale to the Republican
National
Convention,
stepped down as regional
chairman
of
Pre sident
Bush 's re-election campaign,
resigned as a University of
Cincinnati tru stee and withdrew as a re-election · candidate for prosecutor in the
Nov. 2 election.
Allen has said he plans to
finish his current term ,
which ends in January.

Allen alleged that Collins'
lawsuit, which demanded at
leasl $3 million in damages,
was an attempt to extort
money.
"The deadline for re spondmg to her outrageous
demand was on a date when
Collins knew Allen would be
in New York preparing for
the Republican National
Convention," according to
documents Allen 's lawyers
filed Monday in U.S. District
Court. Allen asked that the
court dismiss her lawsuit ..

Vizquel gone,
Indians' Shapiro
looks ahead
CLEVELAND (AP)
Mark Shapiro is just as di sappointed as Cleveland fans
that Omar Vizquel is gone.
but the Indians ' general
manager has other conce rns.
too.
"My job is to put lhe best
team on the field," Shapiro
said Monday, a day after the
popular Vi zquel signed a
three-year, $ 12.25 million
deal with the San Franci sco
Giant s. "My focu s is on
finding the be st way poss ible to score runs as opposed
to giving them up."
Vizquel. who had been
anchoring the Indians '
infield since 1994, has nine
Gold Gloves at shortstop
and filled a key spot in the
batting order as the No. 2
hitter.
"Thi s is something we
were preparing for. but it is
tough and emotional ·in its
finality," Shapiro said. "We
will miss Omar in the clubhou se, on the team, in the
city and in the community."
After lhe Indians went 8082 for a 12-game improvement in 2004, Shapiro said
that as much as he admired
Vizquel, he believed signing
a proven closer and starting
pitcher were more important to the team' s rebuildin g
proce ss. Doing it on a limited budget makes it even
more difficult.
Even without the 37-yearold Vizquel, who hit .291
with seven homers, 82 runs
scored and 59 RBi s last season, Shapiro doesn't believe
adding a veteran shortstop
is a must . Young infielders
Jhonny Peralta and Brandon
Phillips each had solid seasons at Triple-A Buffalo in
2004, both hitting over
.300.
"We 've got two young
shortstops here , though no
one has a job given to him ,"
Shapiro sa id. " You can't
replace an Omar Vi zquel.
He 's special, a once-in-a·
generation player. "
Shapiro said he· talked .
with Vizquel and hi s agent,
Adam Katz, on a regular
basis. "I spoke with both of
them right up until (Sunday)
night," he said. "Omar said
he was appreciative of hi s
years in Cleveland. I
expressed, as l have with
other form er players, my
des ire for him to come back
to the organization at one
point ."

Yassin ldbihi. the Bulls came off a 2- 16 MAC
record in 2002-03 to finish II -7 last season with
an impressive late-season run . They also got
their first MAC tournament win .
The MAC is known for its depth and competitiveness - where almost any team can
emerge to win the conference. Buffalo's rise
seems to continue that.
':This is a tough league and you must have
experienced players," said Witherspoon, MAC
coach of the year. "We have all five starters
returning, but we know how difficult it is to win
in this league. We know everylxxly will be gunning for us- just like we were out lo beat the
top teams the li"t few years."

W,ut a second Aren't the
B10wns .md Steelers supposed
to h.lle each other?
"We talkeu after the game

sa1d Mondav 'It's not somethm g that we want to do as
players and we aJXllog•zed to
each other and we left 1t at that
There s no hard feelings.''
What s next, exchanging
Christmas cards'l
G1een regretted h1s fight w1th
Porter. wh1ch began w1th the
t\\0 pl&lt;~yers Jawmg at each

other as the teams went through
their pregame. drills
Green saJd the trash talking
qUickly escalated once both
took off their helmets
"We kind of got into it, we
were saymg different words and
the next thmg I know I feel
glock of spit shoot m my face
and It JUSt kind of went from
there," Green said. "He spit m
my face and that's when I went
back at h1m and pushed him and
I spit back at him ''
Green said he doesn't know
what prompted Porter to spit m
his face
The third-year back missed
eight games last season when
he was suspended by the NFL
for fa1 lmg the league's substance-abuse JXliicy He's sorry
for his latest episode
"The last thing I want to do IS
get eJected from a game," he
said "I'm sorry about that as far
as my teammates go, but thmgs

Monday

Browns coach Butch DaviS

''He JUSt shouldn't have gotten involved m it," Davis smd
"Hopefully. II will be somethmg

Green was not penrutted to

the Browns lose to their archnval from a luxury box He said
Porter contacted h1m on his cell

"He got the number somehow and gave me a call. m1d 1f
not, maybe I would've given
him a call," Green said. "We're
protess1onals. we have families

Green said h1s next apology
would be to Browns ·owner
Randy Lerner
"I will go and find him and let
him know 'Mr. Lerner. that's
not the kind of person I am,"' he
said. "On TV 11 looks bad, it
looks like I JUSt take off and
push him and sp1t m his face,
but that's not the way it happened. The last thmg I would do
IS spit in another man's face."

Bridge Today magazine can be obtained
only over the Internet. Each month, you
receive a link and print it out yourself. This
saves money lor the publishers, but is
less convenient for readers.
Here is an opening-lead problem from
Marshall Mites. Look at lhe West hand .
Your oppone nts drive into six hearts.
Would you double? What would you lead?
North's two-diamond transfer response
pro mises at least live hearts. South's
jump to three hearts is called a superac·
capt, guaranteeing a maximum with four·
card heart support. Four clubs is a con·
trol -bid (cue-bid), showing the club ace
and expressing slam interest.
You should not double. Why warn declar·
er that the trumps are breaking badly?
(Strangely, it would be better- although
speculative - lor East to double!)
If you lead, say, lhe club 10 to dummy's
ace, at trick two, declarer will probably call
for a low heart from lhe board. Then, he
will see the 4·0 spl it and hold you lo one
trum p trick, using th e power of his inter·
mediates. Instead, you should fe ign a
shortage. Miles recommends starting with
the diamond jack. If South thinks that th is
is a singleton, he is much more likely to
beg1n trumps with dummy's ace, planning
to draw two round s as quickly as possible.
Thi s will give you two tr ump tricks . ! agree
with the idea but prifer to lead the diamond three. Now declarer wilt surely
assume that one defender or lhe other
has a si ngleton diamond and will not take
a tru mp safety·p tay.

Bonds wins record seventh MVP in a walk Big East will be one
1'6-team dI.VI.SI'on
Bonds wins fourth
,
straight Nl MVP
after expans1"on
BY RONALD BLUM

Associated Press

NEW YORK - Barry Bonds
won his record seventh NL
MVP award in a walk.
Capping a season tilled with
suspicion and success. the San
Francisco Giants left tielder
became the oldest player to
become the MVP of a major
Nonh American professional
league. The
40-year-old
received 24 of 32 tirst-place
votes and 407 points Monday in
balloting by the Baseball
Writers· Association of America
to earn the award for the founh
straight season.
"I don't know if one is better
than the other. I think they're all
overwhelming ," Bonds said.
"You almost get lost for words.
the kind of things that are being ·
accomplished in my career.'
Los Angeles third baseman
Adrian Beltre was second. getting six tirst-place votes and 3 11
points. followed by St. Louis
flfSt baseman Albe rt Pujols with
247 points.
Speaking from Beverly Hills,
Calif.. during a telephone conference call. Bonds repeatedly
avoided responding to questions
abous steroids. Bonds. who testified last December before a federal grand investigating steroid
distribution. has denied using
illegal perfonnance-enhancing
substances.
Asked how he could keep his
concentration amid the controversy, Bonds said: "I kind of just
walk through it."
Bonds is the only baseball
· player with more than three
MVP awards and the only one
to win more than two in a row.

San Francisco's Barry Bonds,
40, captured his unprecedented
fourth consecutive Nat1onal
League Most Valuable Player
Award and seventh overall.

Willie Stargell previously wa&gt;
the oldest baseball MVP, sharing the 1979 NL award at 39 112
with Keith Hernandez. Charlie
Conerly of the 1958 New York

Giants (38) was the oldest NFL
MVP, whiletheoldestNBAand
NHL MVPs were both 35: Karl
Malone of the 1998-99 Utah
Jazz and Herb Gardiner of the
1926-27 Montreal Canadiens.
Among the four major sports,
Bonds is second in MVPs to the
NHL's Wayne Gretzky, who
won mne.
Bonds' season was unparalleled statistically. He hit .362 to
win his second NL batting title
in three seasons and shattered
the major league record with a
.609 on-base percentage, topping the previous mark of .582
he set two years ago.
He walked 232 times, 34
more than the previous record
he set in 2002 and more than
I00 better than anyone else in
baseball this season. His 120·•
intentional walks obliterated the
old mark of 68, also set by
Bonds in 2002.
Bonds hit 45 homers in 373
at-bats, while Beltre hit a major
league-leading 48 in 598 at-bats
and Pujols had 46 in 592.
" I never think that I'd have a
chance to win any awards being
walked. I don't think that's even
possible, to try to keep up with
these great talented athletes
when your chances are minuscute comf?ared to their chances."
Bonds smd.
Only 52 home runs behind
Hank Aaron's career mark.
Bonds sajd he intends to play
two more seasons and is motivated by his 4uest to win a
World Series title for the tirst
time. He talked about it a few
days ago with Michael Jordan,
who led the Chicago Bulls to six
NBA titles and wa' a live-time
MVP. ·
"He's like. 'Barry, do you

understand what you're doing?'
:·Bonds quoted Jordan as saymg.
"I haven't won a championship, and so there's nothing
really I'm enjoying now except
these individual awards," Bonds
said he told Jordan. "I want that
championship, and then maybe T
can retlect on what else I've
done. I've done a lot of great
individual things but I want that
championship to go on top of
everything else that I've accompl·ished."
The Gianls missed the playoffs this season, finishing one
game behind wild-card winner
Houston.
Bonds this year became only
the third player to hit 700 career
homers, and with 703 trails only
Aaron (755) and Babe Ruth
(714). But following his grand
jury testimony in a federal
investigation. he repeatedly was
questioned whether he used
steroids.
He wouldn't address an Oct.
16 report by the San Francisco
Chronicle, which said it
obtained from an anonymous
source a recording of Bonds'
trainer, Greg Anderson, · on
which Anderson says Bonds
used performance-enhancing
drugs in 2003.
"I don't have an answer. I
really don't. I really don't really
care about all this stuff," Bonds
said. "I don 't owe anyone a
responSe to anything."
"It's getting a lot harder. I've
tried to explain to players it's a
lot harder to walk than it actually is to hit a ground ball and jog
back to the dugout and take a
rest I'm on my feet all day, and
a lot of teams wear me down. I
know they do it intentionally."

PROVIDENCE, R.I . (AP) -The Big East will be one 16team division in 2005-06 and only 12 schools will panicipate
in the postseason basketball tournament.
The league announced the new structure Monday. It takes
effect following the addition in 2005 of five schools from
Conference USA and Boston College's depanure for the
Atlantic Coast Conference.
Miami and Virginia Tech left for the ACC this academic
year, leaving the Big East with 12 schools.
Louisville, Cincinnati, DePaul, Marquette and South Rorida
make the move from Conference USA to make it 16 schools.
· r The schools will still play a 16-game regular-season schedule with 13 opponents and three repeat matchur.s. The league
office will decide the repeat matchups and it wtll be based on
television, rivalries and geography.
Only 12 schools will advance to the annual postseason tournament at Madison Square Garden. the same as the current
setup.
"Tbe bottom line is we want to help our best teams prepar\!
for success in the NCAA tournament," commissioner Mike
Tranghese said. "If we expanded our tournament field to 16
teams, there would be no byes - or rewards - for what's
going to be an exciting, but grueling regular season."
Many, within the league were apprehensive about the size of
the new conference.
"I know some coaches have expressed concern, that with a
16-team league, the NCAA Basketball Committee may be
reluctant to invite a large number of at-large teams from one
conference," Tranghese said. "As a former chair of that committee, I know it is their charge to choose the most deserving
teams to the tournament. I'm confident that the size of our conference will not hun our chances in any way when it comes
time for NCAA tournament selection."
The only other conference to have 16 members was the
Western Athletic Confe~ence from 1996-98. The biggest current league is Conference USA with 14 members.
The Big East has had the last two national champions Syracuse and Connecticut.
The only difference in the women's basketball structure is
that the schools will play all 15 o&lt;her schools once with one
repeat matchup.
A Big East women· s team has won tile last five national
championships.
