FOXBORO. Mass. Making the playoffs is becoming a habit for most of the New England Patriots. For Corey Dillon, the day tinally arrived. They clinched a !lerth Sunday for the third time in four years, beating the team he left after seven seasons in which he feuded with management. "First time in eight years? I'll take that," Dillon said after running ·for 88 yards and a touchdown in New England's 35-28 win over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. "But I didn't get there by myself." He had plenty of help from two-time Super Bowl MVP Tom Brady, who threw two touchdown passes. and a defense that forced two turnovers Inside the Patriots 20-yard line and a third that was returned for a touchdown that made it 21-7. New England ( 12-1) locked the AFC East title when Ptttshurgh beat the New York Jets. "We are excited about that," safety Rodney Harrison said. "We will enjoy this victory for a day or two." By that time, Patriots offensive coordinator Charlie Weis is expected to be head coach of Notre Dame, replacing the fired Tyrone Willingham. Weis was not available after the game and coach Bill Belichick refused comment. But Patriots owner Robert Kraft, asked to comment about Weis, said. ''tomorrow. when they announce it." The Patriots would do well to listen closely to their defensive coordinator, Romeo Crennel. They let the Bengals up •• x>New England N.Y.

But Brady. coming ' off two mediocre performances, and his offense ran out the clock. · The Patriots got their 27th win in 28 games. including last season's Super Bowl. Dillon wasn't around for that. He already had played his last game for Cincinnati. "I approached it like I approached every other game," DlHon said of Sunday's win. ''I'm pretty sure everybody's sitting here waiting for me to say something wild and negative about Cincinnati. It's not going to happen. I respect those guys." Carson Palmer threw two touchdown passes for the Bengals before leaving in the third quarter with a sprained knee. "I felt a little pop," said Palmer.. who used crutches after the game. "I should be OK to play." The Bengals were hurt by three turnovers: a fumble recovery by Willie McGinest at the New England 16-yard line on the game's tirst series; a 34-yard interception return for a touchdown by Asante Samuel that made it 21-7; and an interception in the end zone by Troy Brown early in the fourth quarter that Brown, normally a wide receiver, returned to only his 3-yard line. "I should have caught it and gone down, but my offensive mentality took over," Brown said. "When you get the ball in your hands, run with it." Still, the Patriots beat a team that scored 85 points in its previous two games and had won four of its last live. New England has 77 in its last two . "We've lost games because . we've made key mistakes," Washington said. "We've moved the ball. We have the talent. But we're not mature enough yet." Brady completed 18 of 26 passes for 260 yards and even connected with Patrick Pass for a 7-yard gain while sitting on the ground after he tripped. "Tomorrow it'll be like, 'Hey, good play, don't ever do that again,' " Brady said. The Patriots scored first for the I Sth straight regular-season game, an NFL record, on Dillon's 1-yard run on their tirst series. That streak was in jeopardy until McGinest recovered Rudi Johnson's fumble. The Bengals tied it on Palmer's 2-yard scoring pass to Matt Schobel, ending an !!-play drive. But the Patriots scored twice over the next six plays on Brady 's 48-yard pass to David Patten and Samuel 's interception. Palmer's 5-yard pass to Chad Johnson on Cincinnati' s next series made it 21-14. Then Brady marched the Patriots to Kevin Faulk's 4yard touchdown run for a 2814 lead. "He's smart, but more than that. he's very patient," Bengals linebacker Brian Simmons said. "He's very mature." Brady was at his best on the opening series of the second half. He completed six of seven passes for 65 yards, capped by a 17-yard touchdown pass to a wide-open Christian Fauria. The Bengals cut the lead to· 35-21 on Kyle Larson's f)yard touchdown run off a fake tield goal and nearly drew within a touchdown as Kitna led them to the Patriots 10. But on third down, his pass was intercepted by Brown.

"The defense stepped up and played a game like I've never seen in my NFL career," Bledsoe said. "The only time you see a game like that is in college." · The Bills eclipsed their previous record of 88 yards allowed against Baltimore in 1982.

So let's take it step by step. Say you purchased a 5 percent bond maturing in 2033 today at par. (Par, by the way, alnounts to the .face value of the bond, or. most commonly. $,1.000) from a new issue. a11d interest rates rose, the v,alue of the bond would decline. Why·> That's a reasonable question best answered in an illustration. ·Let's say that one month rFom now a similar new issue due in 2033 is priced with a 5.25 percent coupon at par ($ 1.000). The 5 percent bond would now be worth less in the marketp lace.Why? No one wo ul d be wi lling to pay $1.000 for a 5 percent bond. when current rates are paying 5.25 percent. Hence . your 5 percent have to be discount. ci:l. So the first half of the bond price rule is. when interest rates rise. the prices of bonds \j'ill generall y drop. Conversely. if you bought a 5 percent bond maturi ng in 2033 at par ($1 ,000) and interest rates went down. the ~.alue of the bond would iilcrease because a month fiom now a similar new issue would be priced at 4.75 percent coupon at par ($ 1.000). The 5 percent bond would be wonh more in ihe marketplac·e. No one would be willing to sell a 5 percent coupon at par ($ 1.000) when current rates are paying 4.75 percent. Therefore. your 5 percent bonds are wonh a premium. The second half of the bond rule is when interest rates ,·Page.Ai Bryce ·smith decline : the price of the bonds wi ll generally go up. Picture it this way - the relationship between price and yield is like a seesaw. If one goes up, the other goes down. Of course, lots of rules have some degree of exceptions. So here's the "yeah, but..." for bonds - bonds do not all lose (or gain) the same value as interest rates rise (or fall). The longe r a bond's maturity, the more it is affected by changing interest rates. A I0-year bond will usually lose more value if rates go up th an a 2-year bond. The lower a bond's coupon, the more sen>itive the bond's price is to changes in . interest rates. A vari able rate bond such as a step-up or tloater will not lose as much value as a fixed rate security. Bond prices are also affec ted by the credit quality of the issuer. Bond choices range from U.S. Treasury securities. which are backed by the fllll fa ith and credit of the U.S. government and are free from credit ri sk. to bonds that are below investment grade and considered speculative, so metimes called "junk bonds." Clients must assess their tolerance for risk in deciding which fixed income vehicle to choose. While interest rate changes and credit quality of the iss uer affect bond prices, one thing that doe sn' t change with a fi xed income instru- ment is the income it generates. If you invest $50,000 in a bond with a 5 percent coupon that pays semi-annually. you would receive $2.500 a year ($I ,250 every six months) no matter what interest rates do. Buyers of bonds should consider themselves investors rather than traders. One buys bonds for preservation of principal and the "fixed" rate of income that it provides. While movement in interest rates wi ll affect the present value of bonds, one's fixed income payment will never change. Most personal financia l advisors recommend that investors maintain a diversified in vestment ponfolio consisting of bonds, stocks. and cash in varying pereentages depending on the inve,stor's age and objectives. Investors need to be aware of how changes in interest rates affect their fixed income vehicles.Fixed Income is an essential ingredient in diversifying a punfolio. For buy and hold investors, fixed income investments provide a predictable stream of payments and repayment of principal. Many people invest in bonds to preserve and increase their capital or to receive dependable interest income. Whatever your investment goals - savi ng for a child's ed ucation or a new home, increasing retirement income or any of a number of other worthy fin ancial goals investing in bonds may help you to achieve your objectives.

MIDDLEPORT Dana KeS\inger reviewed Cokie Roberts' book "Foundin g Mothers" at a recent meeting of the Middleport Literary Club held at the home of Betsy Parsom, Middleport. The title refers to. the roles of women during the political and military struggles of the revolution and the founding of thi s country, Kessinger said. While the men were away. · the women stayed home, man·aged businesses. rai;ed their children, provided political advice for their hushand s and. brothers, and made it possible for the men to do what they did. Roberts, a political commentator for ABC News and~ National Public Radio, said that the writing of the book appealed to her because she wondered what the women did whi le the men were away. She said that aside from Betsy Russ. she real ly didn't know much about the women of that era. Everyday life for women of that time depended largely on where they lived as well as what their husbands did or how much money they had. said Kessinger. She noted that the husbands owned the women and whate\'e r prop- crty they had, and 'ome women took an active role by ge tting involved in the military action . There were 'ome who actually fought in the army at the time of the revolution ant.! were paid for their service. although not a' much as a man\ 'alary, ant.! received a veteran\ pen~ion, accord- ing to the author.

Wednesday, December 15 Moming (7 a.m.-Noon) JOHN SEEWER ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER TOLEDO - A tree-killing beetle that has wiped out millions of ash trees in Michigan has grabbed a foothold around Toledo. and pest expens now are focused on stopping it from spreading through the Midwest. New infestations discovered in the last few months indicate that the beetle called the emerald ash borer is spreading south into Ohio. Researchers are worried that the ·beetle no larger than a paperclip could potentially destroy billions of ash trees that line city streets or are harvested to make cabinets and baseball bats. A national panel of scientists is meeting this week to make recommendations for government agencies on how to keep the beetle frommoving any fanher. One idea being discussed is cutting down ash trees in a 6mile wide path stretching from western Lake Erie throu~h northwe>t Ohio to tne Michigan border. The goal is to create a firewall of sons that would create a natural barrier for the beetle. isolating it in Michigan. where the ash borer was first discovered in the United States two years ago. Scientists suspect the insect arrived in cargo ships from Asia ahout a decade ago. " It 's gett ing down to crunch time on whether it can be stopped," said Dan Herms, an entomologist with the Ohio Agri cultural Research and Development Center. Depanment of Ohio Agriculture spokeswoman Melissa Brewer said it's clear that northwest Ohio is on "the leading edge of a larger infestation." Until recently. pest expens thought the infestations found around Toledo were only the result of people bringing in firewood and ash trees from Michigan. Now it appears that the beetl e has moved naturally into the area. Herms said. It might be too late to save the thousands of ash trees in Toledo and its suburbs. It' s likely that ash trees in those areas where the beetle already has spread will be infested or cut down, Herms said. The impact could be devastating to ash trees in the eastern United States if it breaks out of nonhwest Ohio. said Herms , who serves on the panel that will look into where to create the ash-free zone. " It needs to start now becau se of the rate the main infestation is spreading." Herms said . Where the trees would be cut down and who would pay lor it hasn't been detennined. Some preventive cutting, though. already has started in the Maumee State Forest south of Toledo. The state will seek more money from the t~deral govemment in the coming months to pay lor cutting down more trees around the 12 known infestations in the state, Brewer said.

' "He was a great member of the Red Sox team for seven years. and a certain Hall of Farner," Red Sox president Larry Lucchino told The Associated Press in an e-mai I. ''He will be missed. and we are disappointed to have lost him to the Mets and the National League." Martinez's agent, Fernando Cuza, told the Mets he will attempt to work out a deal with them after New York guaranteed a fourth year. a person involved in the talks said on condition of anonymity. Mets general manager Omar Minaya expressed confidence about the negotiations with Martinez, but wouldn't detail the discussions.. "The good news is that we're still in dialogue," Minaya said. "Every day that goes by and we are having dialogue is a good day." Minaya then left baseball's winter meetings and returned to New York, and the sides will work by telephone to finalize the contract language. Cuza did not want to comment on the talks. Martinez helped pitch Boston to its first World Series title since 1918, but Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein said he refused to increase the team's offer in the past two days. "We wish Pedro nothing but the best going forward both on the field and off the tield,'' Boston owner John Henry said in an e-mail. "He pitched with every ounce of hi s bei'!g for the Red Sox over the course of 216 games.

Associated Press CINCINNATI - Carson Palmer's knee injury isn' t serious, but it could keep him on the sideline. Tests found no tear in Palmer 's anterior cruciate ligament on Monday. The Cincinnati Bengals quarterback was still on crutches, and he wore a brace on the left knee that he sprained during a 35-28 loss at New England. Coach Marvin Lewis didn't rule out the possibility of Palmer playing Sunday against Buffalo. delaying a deci,ion until midweek. Palmer was listed as questionable. "Let's wait and see what happens," Lewis said. Palmer 's injury could clear the way for the NFL' s Comeback Player of the Year to regain the job temporarily. Jon Kitna hadn't taken a snap until Palmer got hurt on Sunday. Kitna hope s it doe~n 't come to that. , " It would be really tough for me ," Kitna said Monday. '' I really want to see Carson finish the year. I know how important that is as a quarterback to go out and finish what you started." Palmer has come into his own lately, leading an offense that has piled up 450 yards for three consec· utive games. a franchise first.

It's not a toy--it's real money. In fact. they are genuine $2 Bills. And right now, people are jamming National Hotline phones because they can still get them for face value. Some collectors are trying to snatc h up all they can before it's too late. The crisp, uncirculated $2 bills are being banded in packs of live and immediately delivered directly to their homes. If parents and grandparents living in 1928 had ke.pt a pack of five uncirculated $2 bills they could be worth $2,250.00 today. That's why people want these new bills so badly. "Our private va ult reser,;es of new $2 bills will soon be gone. Those who want them should call now," said John Thomas White, Executive Director of the U. S. Monetary Exchange . . Originally issued in 1928. the Two Dollar Bill has largely been locked away in dark U.S. Federal Reserve vaults, rarely distributed by banks alld almost never seen in circulation. That's why it is extremely rare to actually fmd one of these historic Two Dollar Bills in your pocket change these days. "When our stockpile is gone collectors will have to sort through money or go to the bank to get them , and one Federal Re se~e Branch . already ran out," he said.
