ANN ARBOR. Mich . John Navarre's name is secure in Michigan's record book . His legacy in Wolverines lore is not. f\:avarre is atop a slew of Michigan career and season passing records, but those accompli shments are marred by an 0-2 record against Ohio State. Some believe the se nior has to lead the fifth-ranked Wolverines to a win against the No. 4 Buckeyes to be remembered as one of the best quarterbacks to wear a winged helmet. "You have to block that out because that's just part of the hype ," Navarre said Monday. "You can't focus on that when you're preparing for this gamt. "But obviously, how you do against Ohio State is a big part of any career here ." Navarre has one last chance to improve hi s mark in the rivalry when the Wolverine s (9-2. 6-1 Big Ten) play Ohio State ( I0-1, 6-1) at home Saturday. The outright Big Ten title and an · automatic Bowl Championship Seri es bid are at stake. Michigan coach Lloyd Carr sa id it is not right that one game cou ld define the career of any player. "What defines you is yo ur character," Carr said. However, teammate Grant Bowman, who grew up in Columbus. Ohio. understands why Navarre's legacy hinges on the outcome of the Ohio State game . "It's probably unfair, but there's a lot of things in life that are unfair." Bowman sa id. "In big games Iike this, the opportunities are bigger and the chance for loss bigger. That's whai you've got to lo ve about it as a competitor. If you don't love that. you probably shouldn't be in the game." Navarre, a candidate for two national quarterback awards, is finishing hi s much-maligned career strong. The native of Cudahy. Wis., has thrown a Big Tenbe st 2 1 touchdowns , with just eight interceptions. Navarre is 218 yards from being the first Michigan quarterback to throw for 3,000 yards in a season and is two TDs short of Elvis Grbac's career mark of 71. He has co mpleted 67.9 perce nt of his fourth-quarter passes for eight TDs and only one interception . But those numbers will pale next to Navarre's 0-3 record against Ohio State if the Wolverines don 't win Saturday, especially becau se of his previous two performances in the series. Last season in a 14-9 setback, he was 23-of-46 for 247 yards when he fumbled with 2:02 left and then threw a game-ending interception short of the end zone. "You want to focus on those plays, and not repeat them," he said. Navarre threw for 206 yards with two touchdowns, four interceptions and a fumble in a 26-20 loss two years ago. He said it's difficult to create positive plays while doing everything possible to avoid mi stake s. "The fine line is so fine th at it will be the difference between a Bi g Ten championship and the Rose Bowl." he sa id . ·'In this type of game. mistake s will cost you a ring and a BCS bid." Carr said Navarre has had an outstancing season and career, but because he started so young at Michigan , he 's had ups and downs. As a redshirt freshman in 200 I, Navarre started the first four games for an injured Drew Hen son. He started strong against weak opponents . then struggled in a lo ss at UCLA and for a half. at Jllinoi s before being replaced by Henson . When Henson decided to • skip hi s senior season to play - baseball, Na va rre threw more TDs ( 19) than interceptions ( 13). But he didn't play well in losses Washing ton . agai nst Michigan State , Ohio State and Tennessee. After hi s job was in jeopardy the next spring. he respond e~ Nava rre threw 21 TDs and just seven inter· ce ptions in a 10-win season. Agai n, nay sayers pointed to hi s one TD and two interceptions in Michi ga n\ three losses. Carr recently said Navarre will make more money than most of his critics next year when he 's playing in th e NFL. "As an individual , he's special," Carr said Monday. "There's no tougher man anywhere than John Navarre."

Pittsburgh made a 79-yard drive to open the third quarter. Jerome Betti s scored on a 1-yard plunge to pull the Steelers within 10-7. But after Owens paved Barlow's way to the end zone, Randle El fumbled the ensuing kickoff - and on the next play, Rattay made another perfect throw down the sideline to Beasley. The fullback made a tou gh catch and dove across the goal line to give San Francisco a 24-7 lead. Former Steelers kicker Todd Peterson also made three field goals for the Niners.

"It ultimately come s down to Jeff's health ," Rattay said. "lfhe's healthy, he 'II go. I love to play, I love to be out there. but right now, my role is the backup."

WEB SITE DIRECTORY AUTOMOTIVE MEDICAL • Norris Northup Dodge www.norrisnorthupdodge.com Holzer Medical Center www.holzer.org Turnpike Ford of Gallipolis Former insurance broker gets one year in prison www.turnpikeflm.com NEW LEXINGTON (AP) - A former insurance broker was sentenced to a year in prison for stealing from Perry County's health care plan. Steven Goodyear, 39, a former Fairfi eld County commissioner, did not address Common Pleas Judge Linton Lewis, but his attomey, Jim Phillips. asked the judge for probation. "This is a single, significant deviation from his character, which has oth· erwise been impeccable," Phillips said. Goodyear's theft resulted in the county's inability to pay medical claims for dozens of county workers. Despite their chronic complaints, employees were told that their disputes with medical providers were theiF own fault or that the county would resolve them quickly. In some cases, workers were hounded by collection ' agencies. In hi s request for leniency, Phillips said Goodyear had repaid the $199,855 that he stole. Phillips said prison would be "a totally alien experience" for Goodyear. "A lot of people make a lot of mistakes and don't pay nearly as dearly as he patd,'" Phillips said.

Though t for Today : ' It is always brave to say what everyone thinks.'- George Duhamel. French author ( 1884- 1966). ITHOll6t!T WERE A HOMELAND PageA4 OPINION ~ednesday,Noventber19,2003 VUzr critics are 'miserable creatures' 'War,' wrote John Stuart Mill . one of the 19th cenrury's greatest thinkers , 'is an ugly thing. but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. 'The person who has nothing for whtch he is willing to tight.' Mill continued. ' is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unle ss made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himse lf.' That statement brings to mind the anti-war crowd those stumping for the Democrati c presidential nomination. those opining on the nation's liberal editorial pages, and those protesting on the streets of the nation's capital and other cities throughout the fair land. They are, in Mill 's words, miserable creatures. They think nothing is wonh war, not even the mass murder of nearly 3,000 of their fe llow countrymen (and women and children) on Sept. II . 2001. They have nothing fo r which they are willing to fight, not even to prevent a madman like Saddam Hussein from deve lopong or ·acq uirin g chemical, biological or nuclear weapons with which he could one day threaten the United States or her allies. Those in the anti-war crowd perfunctorily profes s their support for American military personnel figh ting on their unworthy behalf in Iraq. Yet, they derive a certain perverse satisfaction. it seems, with every fresh news report of a truck bombmg, a helicopter crash, a sui cide attack. To their minds , those Joseph Perkins setbacks vindicate their opposition to the war before, during and after the fall of Hu ssein's regime . They see it as the realization of their dire predictions that the war in Iraq would become a quagmire of Vietnam-like proportions. Of course, the comparisons are absurd. For one thing, the United States never managed to tum the Communists out of power in Vietnam, whereas Saddam's regime has been ousted in Iraq , most of its high-ranking officials either killed or apprehended. The United States suffered more than 58,000 fata li ties in Vietnam, some 47.369 of which were combat-related. That's nearly 1,500 percent more fata lities than the Uno ted States has suffered in Iraq. That's not to diminish in any way the loss of the nearly 400 heroic American servicemen and women who have fo ught and died in Iraq. But the numbers oug ht to be put into perspective. For the reality is, more Americans have been killed in Los Angeles alone thi s year than have been killed in Iraq . The oppo sitio n to th e war in Iraq is le ss about principle - o n th e parts of th e Democratic presiden tial hopeful s. the liberal opinion page writers, the anti -war street protes ters - than it is about politic s. For the politicos and journalist as and activi sts who were bitter about the outcome of the 2000 presidential election, who have never stopped hating George W. Bush. are the same miserable creatures who are so loudly decrying the postwar campaign in Iraq. They almost don't care if the post-war reconstruction in Iraq fails, if Saddam returns to power, if the Iraqi people are once again subject to his genocidal rule, so long as they can play the Iraq card against Bush. Indeed , just last week. a secre t strategy memo, prepared by Democratic staff on the supposedly nonpartisan Senate Select. Comm ittee on Intelligence, suggested that Democrats ought to launch an investigation of the White House next year to h a~e maxim um impact on the presid ntial election. Eve . some Democrats, those who support their country and theor president during time of war. were outraged ' If what has happe ned here IS not treaso n,' said Sen. Zell Miller, D-Ga , ' it IS its first COUSin .. Then there are the Bushhating opinion writers - and they know who they are who insmuate that the co mmander in chief has somehow lost the peace in Iraq because he supposedly neglected to con sider an 'exit strategy.' Of course, the exit strategy those journalistas have in mind is to have the United States cut and run in Iraq. after only nine months on the ground, turning over postwar reco nstru ction to the feckless United Nations. That would be viewed as a victory by Saddam loyalists , by AI Qaeda and other terrorist operatives in Iraq, who continue to mount their guerrilla attacks against U.S. and coalition ta rget~. anticipating that the attacks will lead to the very calls we hear now from liberal. Bush-bashing opinion writers that U.S. troops be withdrawn. Finally, there are the rankand-file anti-war protesters. the 'useful idiot s' as Lenin famously referred to them . Some I0,000 of them marched through the streets of Washington. D.C., last month, carryong such banners as ' End the Occupation of Iraq.' The anti-war protest was co-sponsored by a far-left outfit that calls itself ANSWER, Ac t Now to Stop War and End Racism . ANSWER is a front group tor the Workers World Party, whi ch promotes socia list revolution. When ANSWER actovists are not busy advocating United States surrender to Saddam loyalists and AI Qaeda tcrron sts, they are raisi ng fu nds for their campa ign to im peach President Bu sh. The opponents of the Iraq war. the knee-jerk criti cs of the postwar reconstru ction, reveal the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feel ing of which Mill wrote nearly two centuries ago. Their opposi ti on. their critictsm is fueled not so much by reason, but by hatred toward their president or toward the ir count ry .

The jackpot this week was $155 million. Last week, the prize was 'only' $8 million . There was no line to buy ti ckets then. You could ha~e walked right in and bought as many tockets as you wanted . But it seems gas station ga mblers don't have much use for $8 million, however, they think that $155 million mi ght come in handy. 'Eig ht million? Chump change,' says the guy in line in front of me. 'If you think I'm going to stand in line for I0 minutes for a lousy $8 million, you got another thing coming. You couldn't even quit your job with that kind of money. When you split it up between me, . the wife and the seven kids why, it hardly comes to anything. If l was the kind of person who could be happy living on · next-to-noth ing, why, I'd get a job.' Me, I was there just trying to buy a half-gallon of I percent milk. There are only a hundred or so people in front of me, and the line is mov i~g pretty quickly. Talk about 'luck, l'll be able to get out of Jim Mullen here in half an hour or so. Meanwhile, my line partner fills me (and everyone near us) in on the finer points of the lottery. 'Now, I'm taking a big ri sk buying $200 worth of the $!55 million tickets. What if l have to split it with someone? That would make me' crazy. When I think of the time I've spent coming up with these numbers, and then to share the prize with somebody who just reached up and pulled the numbers out of thin air - I don't think I could handle it. To have to split the pot with an amateur? That would practically kill me . 'And then there's the taxes. That' s the government for you . Always sticking their hand in your back pocket. I do all the work - picking the numbers, standing in line and buying a lottery ticketand then they want to take half my money. It ain't fair. Who did all the work? l did ! So between the taxes and the bum I have to share the prize with, I'm down to $39 million. 'Thirty-nine million. Is that supposed to make up for all those years I did without ? Well , I didn't do without so much , but the wife and kids sure have. I'd hate to think they went without shoes and food for all those tears for nothing.' My milk is now room temperature. It's turned into some kind of gooey liquid cheese. I would go back and get more , but the line has gotten longer. It's I percent milk, who's going to know the difference? Since I have been standing here, the jackpot has gone up to $170 million. What happened to the fast, friendly service that the Gas 'n' Go Away is known for? You used to be able to come here and get some overpriced gas and some ·overpriced milk and get shoved right out. This is taking forever. My line mates are starting to quarrel over ,, one of his young relatives and assaulted her brother. Homicide detectives said police have not determined how Hines allegedly lured Shakira. "We have several possible scenarios," Commander Ed Tomba said on Thesday. "But unless he confesses or you get an eyewitness, we might never know." Hines' lawyer said a confession "is not going to happen." "He maintains he didn't do this," attorney Paul Mancino said . Poltce would not say where in Hine s' house they found Shakira 's blood. They said Hines could have killed the girl at hi s home or at the lot and brought the blood back to the hou se on hi s clothes or body. Hines told Maiilcino that he had stayed at home most of the day that Shakira disappeared, had gone out to collect money for work he had done and then had watched television that evening. Shakira disappeared Sept. 13, and her body was found Oct. !5 after an anonymous tip led police to a tield just 1.5 miles from her home .

Note that tour spades would ta il by one Irick. but North underslandably took the push to five hearts . West led the spade 10: East winning with his ace.

Instead, East cashed the club king before switching to diamonds . But South unknott~d a second string . He won with dummy's cl iamond ace. ruffed a club high, played a trump to dummy·s e1ght , ruffed another club high, overtook the heart 10 with dummy's jack. and trumped a third club high.

V.'ith Central Michigan\ Ch ri s Kaman in the NBA and Kent State two years removed from its unexpected charge through the NCAA tournament, there's no cleqr favorite to win tl1e MAC "I think this year wi th a lot of teams returning a lot of players it's wide open," Kent State coach Jim Christi an said. " If you ask all 13 coaches. they might give you a dilferent team that they think cou ld win it ." If th ere is a team to beat. it's Northern Ill inois. which was picked to win the MAC in a preseason media poll . Northern Ill inois coach Rob Judson said his team was like ly selected because forward Marcus Small wood is the only returning all-MAC tirst-team player. Smallwood averaged a double-df!uble as a junior last season with 13.3 poults and I0. 1 rebounds. The Huski es, coming off their best record in the MAC since they rejoined the league in 1997, al so return guard P.J Smith , who along wi th Smallwood was nalned to the preseason all -MAC team after averaging 14.7 points last season. Miami. which averaged less than 59 points per game last season. is the media's pick to wi n the East di vision. "We need to score more points." Miami coach Charlie Co les ~aid. "I hope we can score 70 points a game this year. I think we could have a great year if we did that." The fact that the RedHawks return more than 90 percent of their scoring shou ld help. They bring back four starters, including guard Juby Johnson. who led the team wi th a 14.8 scori ng average. "I' m the same leader. but it's my last go-ro und, so I want it more." Johnson said. " I delinitely believe we have a lot ol firepower and our defense is getting better, which will also help us put more points on the board."

Rounding out the East is Marshall, which will have a new look with coach Ron Jirsa taking over, and Buffalo, which looks to climb out of bottom of the di vision behind guard Turner Battle. preseason all-MAC selection. Bowling Green will give Northern Illi nois a run in the West Division with its returning top scorer, 6-foot-10 center Kevin Netter. Falcons coach Dan Dakich said although the league has lost some key players, he's never seen so many returning starters. "Unless somebody reall y emerges as a great player, the story is going to be who can win. all these close games," Dakich said. Western Mkhigan was picked by the media to finish third in the West followed by Ball Stale. Toledo, Central Michigan and Eastern Michigan. Western Michigan will be led by new coach Steve Hawkins and for ward Anthony Kann. "Every year I've been here, we've been getting consistently better." Kann said. ·'We've got a lot of good players coming back. I'm pretty excited for the year." Ball Stale returns four starters, including forward Cameron Echols. and Toledo brings back Keith Tripleu, who led the Rockets ~ith 16.8 points per game. Central Michigan appears due for a rebuilding year after dominating the MAC and reaching t,he second round of the NCAA tournament last season. The Chippewas have lost their four top scorers, including Kaman, who skipped his senior season and was taken sixth in the NBA draft by the Los Angeles Clippers. Kann said he wanted to defeat Central Michigan when Kaman was there. But that doesn 't mean he wishes Kaman was still in the MAC. "Now that he's gone, maybe it's not such a bad thing," Kann said. The rest of the league might agree. Chasi ng Miami will be Akron, Kent State. Marshall. Ohio and Buffalo. Akron returns tive-starters and has been working to improve a de fense that allowed almost 79 points per game against MAC opponents. The Zips will con ti nue· to score with a backcourt of sen iors Derrick Tarver and Johnny Hollingswo rth, who together averaged 38 poi nts per game last season. The guards make Akron the only team besides Northern Illinois lo have two preseason al l-MAC selecti ons. "We know we can score with anybody," Tarver said . "Ir we can play defense and rebound, we can put ourselves in a better sit uation to win .·· Kent State's season has already su ffe red a blow with the loss of junior center Nate Gerw ig follow ing surgery on his right knee. Ohio has lost its three leading scorers from last season: Brandon Hunter. Steve Esterkamp and Sonny Johnson.

CORRECTION Due to an oversight of The Daily Sentinel. not the Meigs County Treasurer's office. the following names were published as delinquent taxes but were adually over Clippers CLEVELAND (AP) Ricky Davis has a strange .way of controlling his temper. The volatile Cleveland guard kicked the ball into the stands after a hard foul by Corey Maggette while the Los Angeles Clippers were making a third-quarter run Tuesday night. "Just trying to stay calm," Davis explained. Davis and the Cavaliers stayed cool enough to hold off the Clippers 103-95 and end Los Angeles' four-game winning streak. LeBron James shot poorly . tium the outside but tinished with 14 points, seven rebounds and eight assists as the Cavaliers won their fourth straight home game. Maggerte downplayed his fo ul on Davis,. who had 27 points and four steals. "I didn ' t mean anything personal. I just tried to stop him from scoring and then held him up so nobody got hurt," Maggette said. Maggette fouled Davis on a fastbreak, wrapping hi s arms around him wtth Davis landing on Maggette's lap up against the post. Davis was called for a technical for booting the ball. After Maggette made a free throw and Davis made his two shot~ , Davis stole the ball from Maggette and slammed it home. Chris Mihm added a career-high 21 points for Cleveland. He shot 10-for-14 with nine rebounds in 36 minutes while filling in for Carlos Boozer, who left alter spraining his right ankle late in the tirst quarter. "Not just tonight, but for the last couple of weeks he ha> been playing great and giving us the support off the bench that we need to wm games," James said. Predrag Drobnjak had a season-high 20 points and. a career·high 13 rebounds to lead the Clippers. · "He was the spark that got us back into it," Clippers coach Mike Dunleavy said. "He didn't do real well in the ftrst half - none of us did." The Clippers shot just 21 percent in the ftrst half and played little defense. The Cavaliers led by as many as 28 and took a 58-361ead into halftime. "I just don't think we were ready to play," Quentin Richardson said. ''We knew we could get back into the . game, but we ran out of ga~ . You can't afford to give anybody in the NBA those kinds of leads to start off like that." The Clippers pulled within six points several times in the fourth quarter. With two min· utes left Drobnjak got a basket underneath, then Chris Wilcox got a steal and made a free throw lo pull the Clippers to 91-85. .. But Mihm hiJ, a baseline jumper · and Kevin Ollie scored on a drive on the next possession to. put Los Angeles away. Drobnjak led a second-half charge with 12 points in the third quarter to help spark a 14-2 run that got the Clippers back in it. Maggette had 19 points, and Richardson 17 for Los Angeles. Zydrunas llgauskas had 13 points and I0 rebounds for the Cavaliers. James shot 6-for-16 with nearly all of his points coming from point-blank range.
