For the first time since 1990, the team in tiger stripes has a postseason berth in the palm of its ~ands. The Bengals (8-6) will clinch the AFC North if they win their last two games, setting up a firstround home game. The club announced Monday that it will start selling playoff tickets this week, its closest brush with the postseason since the days of Boomer, lckey and Sam. It's all a little disorienting and jarring - and the last thing that coach Marvin Lewis wants his team thinking. "I told them just that: Don't worrr, about what everyone is telling you, ' Lewis said Monday. "Just worry about winning the football game." The Bengals 'moved into a first-place tie by beatmg San Francisco 4 I-38 on Sunday, while Baltimore lost in Oakland 20-12. The Bengals and Ravens have the same record, but the relevant tiebreakers are in Cincinnati's favor. If the two finish tied, the Bengals get their first division title and playoff appearance since 1990, endi ng the longest current streak of futility m the NFL. "It's great to have these opportunities as opposed to being mathematically eliminated," linebacker Brian Simmors said Monday. "So right now, it's just a matter of whether we're going to take advantage of it or not." ' The Ravens have games left against division foes with losing records - at Cleveland and at home against Pittsburgh in the Sunday night game Dec. 28.

Judge John W. Kessler, senior judge of the county's Common Pleas Court, will preside over the new court, which is modeled on . the successful drug court used since 1996 for firsttime drug offenders. It is the first court of its kind in Ohio, deputy court administrator James Dare said. Kessler will hear cases docketed twice a month, starting Jan. 8. "This concentrates staff effort and resources so we can realize more bang for the buck," Kessler said. Prosecutor Mathias H . Heck Jr. said since 200 I, when his office was fully geared up to prosecute child-support offenders under a new state felony law, it has collected more than $1.5 million and approved charges against more than 500 offenders. "To me, it's a last-ditch effort to get nonpaying, employable parents to bf responsible , and. to start contributing financially to support their children," Heck said. "If these criminal charges and this criminal court won't (prompt offen<lers to pay), then there will be no other option and they will have to be sentenced to the penitentiary."

She is afraid for her name to be in the paper. so I'll just call her Mom. She is a widow. She li ves on a fixed income - she's not going to get paid next week , you stole her money for the entire rest o.( the year. She ~lso has very hi gh 'blood press ure. She was also sick the day yo u robbed her. The llu is really hard on older people. that's probably why she didn 't see you .steal her money out of her purse. Maybe you would have reconsidered your position if you had known that her next stop was going to be the pharmacy to pick up her medication. You see. hi gh blood pre ssure is a very serious condition and if she doesn't have her medi cation she will die. Would knowing that have made a difference to you? Is a human life worth on ly $900? But that isn' t the only consequence of your action. She now has no money to pay fo r her re nt, utifities, or even buy food. ,Luckily, she has children who can see to it that she is not evicted or without the necessities. but she can 't buy her grandchildren any Chri stmas presents thi s year. She can' t even afford to make Christmas dinner. Did I mention that she's afraid now" You see, she Jives alone and when elderl y people are vi ctimi zed ... well , she insists she needs a gt1n in the house now. She also does n' t sleep very nwch ei the r. She docs expend a Jot of energy :checking her loc ks and look ing out th e windows.

Catherine Moon Shade, Ohio Wednesday, December 17,2003 A conservative intellectual in full Bob Bartley. editor emeritus of The Wall Street Journal, died this week . He was the most intluential editorialist of the past quarter century. He was a man in full . A 1982 cover story in The Washington Post's Sunday magazine provided my first introduction to Bartley. It described him as the ' impresario of conservati ve opinion ' in America who ' uses his ed itorial page as an offensive weapon. ~ The 1980 Pulitzer Prize winner for editorial wnt1ng, Bar1ley boasted an 'attack-dog writing style,· the Post attested. His prose leapt from the page with 'muzzle velocity.' And that's precisely why the .Journal editorial pages so resonated wi th its readers, 'the larges t audience of ricl;J and powerful peop le ever to read an American newspaper,' according to the Post. Bartley's pages were the fountainhead of conservative intellectual thoug ht. They informed the presidency of Ronald Reagan, the most successful commander in chief in the post-war era. Indeed, the Journal was an early proponent of 'supplyside economics,' an idea regarded as rather radical during the late 1970s and early 1980s. It posited that reductions in marg inal 'tax rates foment economic Joseph Perkins growth and thereby ge nerate more net reven ues for the federal treasury than they cost. · The Reagan tax cuts of the 1980s were based on the supply-side principles Bart ley and hi s edi toria l pages promoted. And th ose tax cuts precipitated an economic expansion that was, at that time, the longest in peacetime history. It grew the moribund U.S. economy out of the doub ledigi1 in ll ation and imerest and unemploy ment rates th•ll Reagan inherited fro m hi s hap less predecessor. Jimm y CarteE Bartley's editorial page s also ad vocated a muscular foreign po licy toward the Sov iet Union, which provided the philosophical basis for what ca me to be known as the Reagan Doctrine. Rather than appease the Communists in · Moscow, rather than accept thei r ex pan sioni st amb ition s. Reagan was guided by the conservative principle of ·peace through >trength.' So he rebuilt the nation's defenses, whic h had been sorely neglected under Carter. And he dared to commit the United States to developing a national missile defense system to forestall a future Soviet missile attack. The Communists struggled to match America's military buildup. But. by the end of the 1980s, the Soviet empire collapsed under . its own weight. So America won the Cold War without a shot being fired. Just as Bartley's · editorial page had predicted. I first met Bartley in person in 19R4, when I was a student journali st at Howard University in Washington. D.C. H ~ had read some of my writings and invited me to visit him in New York. He took me to lunch lll Windnw.s on the World atop · the V\ ,• rJtl Trade Center. He was not the large r-than-life fi gure I was expecting from reading the Washington Post · magazine article. Rather. he was a modes t man . the proverbial qu iet in te ll ectual. I was taken aback that the editor of The Wall Street Journal wou ld devote time out of his schedule to take a' college kid like me to lunch. And I was humbled when he in vited me to join hi s illustrious editorial page staff fresh off of camp\.ts. I will always cherish the years I spent worki ug for Bartley, the most inn'uential person in my young adult li fe . He not only was an extraordinary editor. he also was a great manager of people. Bartley made everyone who worked for him feel like a valued member of his team. He saw his ro le as coach. rather than taskmaster. He never fe lt the need to micromanage, to run things with an authoritarian hand, like lesser editors. like lesser managers. And he demonstrated that "the quality of mercy. as Shakespeare wrote. 'i s mightiest in the mi ghty.' Perhaps Bartley's most Ot_ltstand ing attribute was that he was· a good judge of people. He recruited journal ists who were not on lv t<tlented. but also decent human be ings. We did not regard each other as mere co-workers. We were friends. That 's the ·c amaraderie that our editor. our coach instilled in us. Bob Bartley wa> respected by all who knew him , revered by all who had the privilege to work under hi s leadership. He will be missed. (Jo.,epll Perkins rs a coltmmis1 for The San Diego Union- Tribune mrd cwr be reached a T Josepii.Perkins @ UnionTrib.com.) IT'S HOWARD OEAN.

The Fergusons have had a great 2003 . As you can see, Bob lost 40 pounds on the Atkin s diet. He had to get a second job to stay on It bec ause he eats more red meat than a grizzly bear, but you can't knock the results. If you haven't heard about it, Atkins is a diet plan th at dot:s n't allow you to eat anything inexpensive like pasta or potatoes or rice. But you can eat as many $7.99 a pound steaks as you like. We've spent so much on fo od this year we can't afford to buy him new clothes. His pants are so baggy he looks like he just clown graduated from school. Still, it beats the stomach staple the doctors were talking about and he says he feel s good. Speaking of health , Amber's nose-ring got . infected and she ·mi ssed most of this last semester at junior college. The whole experience has made her think seriously of changing her ma jor from Tattoo Art Appreciation to Herbal Holistic Ar.omatherapist but nothing's firm yet. The real exciting news is .. Jim Mullen that Amber has a boyfricn(l, a lawyer. No. wait a minute . Bob says the boyfriend isn't a lawyer, the boyfriend has a lawyer. My bad. Kids these days , I could never have afforded a lawyer when I was his age. He must really be smart. He's living above our garage until 'the heat dies down.' We used to have an apartment like that, too. Once the heat came on you co uld never turn it off. " Josh is doing well in Golf Course management and he ca me thi s close to making the Pro's Li st this semester' except for the low grade in Lawn mow ing. Thank goodness he go t a 3.2 in Watering Grass 101. Bob's mother is sti ll living. With us. Sometimes she's a little forgetful. I can't tell you how often I have to remind her that she's Jiving in my house. I think she would probably be better off in a nursing home but Bob won't hear of it. He's just th at kind of guy. He says, 'As long as you're healthy, why shouldn't she stay with us?' Except for the-smoking . the· drinking, the cleaning, the cookin g and the laundry. she's not much of a bother. And the kids Jove her. They're always trying to make her comfortable. But no matter how many times I tell them, they still try to turn her oxygen on when she's smo~ing. I suppose this is as good a time as any to explain that newspaper headline in June, ' Bob Ferguson Arrested in Credit Card Fraud .' Actually it was good news, they arrested the guy who \tad stolen Bob's identity. They caught him trying to charge a Slim Jim and a box of Hami'i -Wip~s down at the Gas and Go Away. Little did the thief know that Bob's credit cards have been maxed out for months and all the cle,rks have brders to call the police if he ever tries to use· a credit card there agam. The guy pretending to be Bob is still in jail , but that will probably change when he finds out about the back taxes we owe on that phony tax shelter sca m we got involved in last year. It seems that just because you don't mow your backyard doesn't mean you can call it a· 'Tree Farm' and start taking an agricultural deducti on. Who knew ? But if the fake Bob Ferguson wants to . do eight to I 0 years for tax fraud, that's fine with us. Which reminds me, be sure to watch Bob's Dad on '60 Minutes' in January to hear his side of the story. Face it, if he wa's . really guil_ty, why do they keep· calling htm an 'unindicted .co-conspirator?' Well, that's about if from the Fergusons. I've got to go pick up Fluffy from the vet. I'm not sure I want to see the bill. Well, how much could a simple tail re attachment cost, anyway? Wishing you and yours a Happy 1-loliday.

(AP Photo/Bob Jordan) I . . BY ·MARGARET l.JLLARD ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITERS KILL DEVIL HILLS. N.C. (AP) - A century ago, two brothers with little more than a rudimentary understanding of aerodynamics and a delicate contraption fashioned in their bicycle shop made the first powered, heav ier-thanair fl ight. The IOOth anniversary of that event Wednesday is the climax of a six-day festival at Wright Brothers National Memorial, where a team <~f mechanics, pilots and engineers hoped to re-enact Wilbur and Orvill"e Wright's seminal accomplishment. President Bush was to be on hand for the attempt. timed to come I 00 vears to the minute after the' brothers from Dayton. Ohio, made their fi rst 120-foot. 12-second flight. Weather permitting. Kevin Kochersberger. an engineering professor from Roche ster, N.Y., was to !ly a meticulous reproduction of the 1903 Wright tlyer that was built by The Wri ght Experience of Warrenton, Va. On Dec . I 7. I 903, Orville was at the controls for that first hop that lasted all of 12 seconds. He and Wilbur alternated for four flights that day; the last, by Wilbur, lasted 59 seconds and ran for 852 feet. ·, In the century since, travel by airplane has gone from a barnstormer's novell~ ·act to such a routine that 11 briqgs more complaints than ruminations on the extraordinary fact that it simply can be done. Some still · remember the early wonder. John Glenn first went into the air as an 8-yearold boy in the late 1920s. Strapped into the back of a two-seat plane with his father beside him, Glenn buzzed the fields and woods near his native Cambridge, Ohio. "We sat in the back with one seat bell strapped across the both of us," he recalled thi s week. "Looking down, 1 was hooked from then on." As a grown man in 1962, he was the first American in space aboard "Friendship 7," the Mercury-Atlas 6 spacecraft. And in 1998 - some 120 manned space flights later - he made his second trip into space. a nine-day scientific mission aboard the shuttle Discovery. . Now, at 82, he still flies his personal plane, a twin-engine Beechcrafl, when he travels from hi s home in College Park, Md. "I guess I never got tired of it. Just being able to see things as they are from that altitude, for me it's just always been an enjoyable experience," Glenn said.

FAUSTROM Associated Press BY DAN GELSTON Associated Press PHILADELPHIA (AP ) - Allen Iverson says he definitely wo n' t pl ay Wedn esday or Friday because of a swollen ri ght knee , an injury that could keep him sidelined even longer. The NBA's leadin g scorer has missed two of the team 's last three games. Philadelphia has four more games before beginning a five -game Western road trip Dec . 26 at the Los Angeles Clippers. "I don ' t want to go out West if I'm not able to play. The onl y thin g th at's going to do is bother me," Iverson said Tuesday. "One day. I'll wake up and feel a little better and try and go out there and play, and that might not be the best thing ." Asked whether te~m doctors have let him know when hi s knee will be healed, Iverson said: "They can't tell me. Nobody 's been able to tell me how long it' s going to take." The 76ers ' first home game after the trip is Jan. 5 again st Milwaukee . Iverson is averaging 28 .9 points, 6. I assists and 3.8 rebounds for the Atlantic Pivi sion-leading 76ers (12 - 12) while playing a league-leadin g 43 .7 minutes per game. "We ' re not going to jeopardize his long term career," coach Raqdy Ayers said. "We won't play him until he feels healthy enough to play, and I think you have to Jet players make that decision . We'll wait to see when he feels right." Iverson was hurt in a game again st Chicago on Dec . 4 , when he slipped and hit the court hard. Iverson finished the game but said the knee started to swell on the plane and has both ered him since. He played 44 minutes the next night against Miami, sat out a game against Detroit, then returned to shoot 6-for22 from the floor in 44 minutes against Denver on Friday. "I honestly wish they could put me on the injured list so when I come to the games, I don't try to go out there and play. They tell me they don't have . any room ," Iverson said at practice . "''m not in a lot of pain. I' m not able to move like I want to move." Philadelphia lists Iverson 's status as dayto-day. He played all 82 games for the first time in his career last season. Injuries have Ie(t the 76ers • short-handed most of this season, including four games where only nine players dressed. The team has the maximum allotment of three players on the i!jjured lisl: Will Green , Todd MacCulloch and Monty Williams. Marc Jackson is e~pected to be sidelined at least a month after hand surgery. Glenn Robinson and Derrick Coleman also have been hampered by injuries. "I can't do anything to ·help this team," Iverson said. "I want to make I 00 percent sure when l come back." I'm \ ST LOU IS - Keith Tkac huk fo und another way to help the St. Loui s Blues beat the <;o tum 'bus Blue Jackets in ove rtime. Tkac huk scored with 42.7 seconds le ft in the extra session. helpin g St. Louis rall y fro m a one-goal deficit and beat the Blue Jackets 21, the Blues' second overtime victory over Columbu s in five days . Last Friday, Tkac htlk helped set up Doug We ight 's game-winner with 8. 7 secon ds left. Hi s hit o n Darryl Sydor gave the Blues a thre e-o n-o ne break and left th e Blue Jackets fuming · about an obstruction penalty they didn ' t get. "They got a tremendou s effort from a tremendous playe r in the overtime," Columbu s goalie Marc Deni s said .' "l would have loved to ha ve made the save there. " Tkac huk scored his team-leadin g 16th goal aft er stopping Chri s Prange r's shot short of the net. Lunging to hi s ri ght, he pushed a backhand shot past Deni s while falling. " It was just one my typical bad skating, falling and getting lucky, " Tkachuk said. "I was just there around the net becau se eventuall y the puck's going to be there ." The Blues have won their last four games by one gqal, three in overtime. "We' re confident and we ' ve been very successful in overtime ," Tkachuk said. " It's just one of those things where you've got to ride the wave." The Blue Jackets, who Jed 1-0 after two periods on a deflection by Andrew Cassels, remained the only NHL team without a road victory. They ' re 0-11 - 1-2 away from home thi s season and 0-12 - 1- 2 dating to last season . But they felt good about this one. "It 's games like tonight where you scrap and claw to get yourself a point, they're going to pay off down the stretch ," center Todd Southern from Page 81 down the inside passing lanes. Herman was left with a long desperation three that caromed out at the buzzer. giving Southern one of its biggest wins in recent years. Throughout the second half, Jim Derrow. the dean of TVC coaches, and Rees matched wits in coaching strategies. Like a chess game, each team followed their coachfs advice and methodically churned out production on the floor. Southern coach Jonathan Rees. last year's District 13 Coach of the Year, made a case for the same honors this year. 'Rees said, ''This was a big win. but I told our kids all along that we were going to win this thing. For some reason all week I just visualized us winning. We didn ' t play well. but we didnft give up and we played clutch ball at . the end. "We had three guys in the starting line-up with the flu and we played three quarters like we were tired. We didn't hit some shots we normally make, and at times the offense was sluggish, but our kids kept their heads in the game. That and adju sting to our defenses late in the game is what got us the win." Despite nursing a bruised shooting hand and lighting the · flu , and getting into early foul trouble, junior Craig · Randolph came back to take control of the game. Randolph in fact was so beaten down that Dr. Hunter was summoned to his aid in the first quarter. But Randolph the gamer, scoreless that first frame , carne back to score five by halftime and led the team with 24 points at the finish. Coach Rees cited a team effort; however, as a key to the game. He noted that Jeremy Yeauger sparked the team early with two driving lay-ups and a free throw, while also playing great defense. Rees also ~howcased the play of Aaron Sellers, who had a great floor game and some key rebounds (six overall) with five points; and Rees praised the efforts of his post- Middleport • Pomeroy, Ohio -,1 1 t l \ l " • \ td ·, ~ SPORTS '\t t -~ llll~\"-tll\, , ltlli\1BII { I~ . ...!

(AP) Marchant said: Dallas Drake added a power-play goal for the Blues at 6:46 of the third period , knocking in the rebound ol' a point shot by Alexander Khavanov. Th·e Blues are unbeaten in December at 6-0-1 , and they ' re I 1-2-1-0 thi s season at the Savvi s Center. "We never do it the easy way," goalie Chris Osgood said . "But we find a way." St. Louis mi ssed a chance to end it in regulation after Derrick men Josh Smith, Jake Nease. and Wes Burrows. Burrows had nine points and five rebounds, while Nease notched seven points and a team-high II rebounds, and Smith six points. "This is a good ball club and now it is time that someone took notice," Rees said. "We have four players who average. double figures, and we have several players giving us good minutes off the bench. They All deserve some credit." Wellston was led by Herman's double-double, a solid 24-point effort with I I rebounds. Derrow added 13, Lackey six, and Rader four.

Both clubs mi ssed numerous tries and forced turnovers were the specialty of the day. Southern had numerous attempts to tie the score at 18-18 but had four straight turnovers. Southern, without a field goal in the frame, finally did tie it the fifth time around on two Randol ph free throws, 18- 18 but at the buzzer Rader · grabbed a rebound and gave . Wellston the lead at the half. Wellston dominated the third round, but Southern rallied late to ·overcome a 4 I -32 tally after three prior to staging the fourth quarter comeback.
