COLUMBUS -When
thinking about the top
holiday fire hazards often
what comes to mind are
live Christmas trees, decorative lighting and
mashed potatoes'?
Cooking is actually the
top cause of holiday fires
according to the Division
of State Fire Marshal.
Last year, almost 60 percent of all house fires
between Dec. 24-26 were
caused by cooking (39
percent) and heating (20
percent).

Here are some common sense tips from the
Division of State Fire
Marshal when it comes to
cooking and heating
safely this holiday season
- Don't cook when you
are tired, distracted or
intoxicated; if you have
to leave the room- even
for a minute
turn off
anything on the ~tovetop;
if you are baking, it is
okay to leave the kitchen,
but don't leave the home.
fall asleep, etc.; keep kids
and pets away from the
stove and oven.
Space heaters - electric or fuel - need space

which means at least
three feet; never plug
space heaters into extension cords; most fires
with space heaters are the
result of one of these two
things. Also. make sure
you use the right type of
fuel in space heaters.
Never put gasoline into a
kerosene heater. for
example.
When it comes to
reducing your risk of holiday tires associated with
decorative lighting. follow these recommendations: Purchase lights
that bear the label of a •
nationally
recognized

testing laboratory, such
as
Undenvriters
Laboratories
(UL);
(unlike
Clark . W.
Griswold) do not connect
too many light sets
together, and install light
sets outside the home
only if they are specifically labeled for outside
use outdoor lights
should be fastened with
hangers, not staples. and
should be placed on a
ground fault interrupter
circuit when possible;
use the replacement
bulbs that have the correct wattage, and replace
light sets and extension

cords that are worn or
cracked; use as few
extension cords as possible. and do not run them
under rugs or over sharp
objects.
Reduce your risk of
holiday fires associated
with live Christmas tress•
by following these recommendations:
Make
sure the needle.;; arc tlexible and hard to pull off
the branch- the needles
should not break off easily on a fresh cut tree; cut

Dear Dr. Brothers: J

~

d,on't know .what to 90.
I ve been w1th my gtrifriend for thrc~ years now,
and we have ltved together for about the past six
months. I love her and
want to marry her, but she
seems to have something
against marriage. It's not
like either of our parents
are ~ivorced or anything.
She JUst says she doesn't
want to mess up a good
thing. We arc in our mid29s. Should I try to convmce her s~me '!lore.. or
le~':e. or JUSt hve ltke
thts?- B.H.
D~ar ~.H.: Although
the sttuatwn sounds rather
bleak at first glance.
chances are you and your
girlfriend are both actually on the same page sort of! You both want to
be with one another, and
you want to make sure
your union lasts. You just
have different ways of
looking at how to do that.
You want to go with the
traditional ceremony and
a ring. and she would prefer not to rock the boat:
''If it ain't broke, don't fix
it" might be her motto.
What it boils down to is
that you both agree that
you are a great couple
who should stay together.
So one approach you
might take would b.! to
play a waiting game.
Don't try to force her to
make a commitment
beyond the foreseeable
future, and she just might
come around by herself
eventually.
If marriage is so important to you that you can't
wait it out. then perhaps
you do have the wrong
woman. Certainly if it
gets to the point \\'here
you want to have children. it's better to be a
married couple. I wculd
n't recommend doing
that, so if kids are in the
picture, you should at
least find out what your
girlfriend's views arc. If
she doesn't want to talk
about it, perhaps she is
actually a bit afraid of
commitment and fearful
of a future where she is
tied down to being a wife
and mother. It's not a bad
idea to find out now if
that's the case.

Sarah Lee, Gifted Intervention Specialist for the
Athens-Meigs Educational Service Center and teaching in Meigs County, described her students as have
"worked diligently to prepare for the competition by
creating a resolution for a major problem from their
chosen country. then using parliamentary procedure
to debate the resolution, and performing a skit or displaying another feature on the culture of that country."
Lee said that Southern represented the countries of
India, Bahamas and Lebanon. and that they not only
did well in their presentations on Bahamas and
Lebanon but also saw their resolutons for those two
countries passed by•the Council.
Eastern represented the countries of India, Poland,
Egypt, Mexico and China and with the exception of
India, all resolutions passed during council sessions.
Although some resolutions of Eastern and Southern
did not pass during the strenuous debating and voting
of council sessions, all resolutions received high
marks from the 2010 officers and staffers for creativity in solving real world problems.
"This year's hard work and dedication showed up in
the awards the students received," said Lee. She said
the seventh grade team of Zach Connolly and Ross
Keller from Eastern Middle School representing the
country of Poland took the top honor of Outstanding
Cultural Performance for their presentation of the
musical number, "Pineapple Polka" remastered by
Eastern Band instructor, Cris Kuhn.
Both seventh grade teams from Eastern Middle
School took the honors of Outstanding Nation in

Sen. George Voinovich, R-Cleveland, was one of
19 senators who opposed the tax bill, stating misgivings about its contribution to the national debt which
he said could be nearly $1 trillion.
Last month, there were an estimated 12 people in
Meigs County who lost their unemployment benefits though that number jumps to 170 residents at
the end of this month if an extension of benefits
isn't granted.
If the extension fails, local Department of Job and
Family Services staff an~icipates an increase demand
in food and cash assistance. The agency's One-Stop
employment office would also likely see an increase
in requests to assist the unemployed with looking for
work, developing resumes and other free services.
Meigs County and other predominately "rural"
counties aren't the only counties poised to see an
increase in people losing their benefits if the extension and tax package fails. The Ohio DJFS estimates
9,002 people in Franklin County alone will lose their
unemployment benefits at the end of this month.

New report calls for online
privacy bill of rights
BY JOELLE TESSLER
ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Commerce Department is calling for the creation of a ''privacy bill of rights" for Internet users to
set ground rules for companies that collect consumer
data online and use that information for marketing
and other purposes.
The proposal, outlined in a report Thursday, is
intended to address growing unease about the vast
amounts of personal infonnation that companies are
scooping up on the Internet - from Web browsing
habits to sma1t phone locations to Facebook preferences. That data is often mined to target advertising.
The new report is intended to guide lawmakers,
industry and a White House group looking at the
issues surrounding Internet privacy.
It comes two weeks after the Federal Trade
Commission recommended the creation of a "Do Not
Track" tool to let consumers stop or restrict advertisers from studying their online activity - including
the websites they visit, the links they click, their
Internet searches and their online purchases - in
order to target ads.
The Commerce Department report proposes the
creation of a broad framework for industry behavior
to ensure that companies give consumers clear notice
about what personal data they are collecting and
exactly how they are using it.
It would require companies to give consumers the
opportunity to "''opt out" of. or decline, some or all of
that data collection and to correct erTors in the information. And it would set clearer limits on the use of
this information and require companies to' secure the
data they gather.
These so-called "fair information principles" would
require congressional action to become binding. At
least one key lawmaker, Senate Commerce
Committee Chairman John D. Rockefeller, D-W.Ya.,
said Thursday that he supports such legislation.
The Commerce Department repoit also envisions
specific codes of conduct for particular types of companies, such as social network sites; services that
deliver location-based pitches to mobile devices; and
Web publishers and marketers that target ads based on
a consumer's online behavior.
Those codes of conduct would be voluntary, but
enforceable. The FTC could take actions against companies that commit to abide by them and then don't
comply.
In what could become one of the more controversial
elements of the Commerce Department proposal. the
codes would be developed by Internet advertising networks, Web publishers and marketers, social networking sites and other online services, as well as
government officials, consumer groups, privacy
watchdogs and others concerned about Internet privacy.
The report recommends the formation of a federal
privacy office inside the Commerce Department to
bring these stakeholders together to hammer out the
new codes of conduct.
The report also called for a review of the Electronic
Communications Privacy Act, a l9861aw that extended wiretapping restrictions to e-mail messages and
other data files, but is now considered out of date.

Though mostly upbeat, the
Obama administration's assess
ment of war progress 10
Afghanistan suggests tough combat will continue for years and if
the president begins to bring U.S.
troops home next summer, as
promised, the numbers will be
small.
The internal review of President
Barack Obama's year-old war
strategy unveiled Thursday says
that Taliban momentum has been
halted in many parts of
Afghanistan and that al-Qaida
leaders who are thought to be
plotting fmther terrorist attacks
on the U.S. from Pakistan sanctuaries have suffered grievous losses.
But the review makes clear that
further progress won't come easily. And it indicates that ultimate
success depends heavily on factors beyond Obama's control,
such as Pakistan's effectiveness in
eliminating al-Qaida and Taliban
havens on its side of the border.
"We are on track to achieve our
goals," Obama declared from the
White House in remarks echoing
his announcement a year ago that
he was escalating the war effort
by sending an additional 30,000
U.S. troops to Afghanistan with
the central aim of seizing the initiative from the Taliban.
Though the White House's
rhetoric on the war hasn't
changed much in the past 12
months, other factors have. Public
opinion in the U.S. and other
coalition countries has soured on
the war, casualties have increased
sharply and, in the view of some
international groups. the outlook
for peace has dimmed.
The head of the International
Committee of the Red Cross'
Afghan
operation
said
Wednesday, for example. "In a
growing number in areas of the
country, we are entering a new,
rather murky period" in which
violence threatens the ability of
humanitarian groups to do their
work.
Obama 's top national security
aides insisted, however, that while
tough challenges remain, there is
progress toward the goal of handing over control to the Afghan
government by the end of 2014.
Defense Secretary Robert
Gates, who recently returned from
Afghanistan, said at the White
House that he saw more progress
than he had expected. And he suggested that it can be difficult for
those who viewing the war from
Washington to grasp how it is
unfolding on the ground.
"The sense of progress among
those closest to the fight is palpable,'' Gates said.
This year has been the deadliest
in the war for U.S. forces. At least
480 Ametican troops have been

killed. compared to 317 last year
and 155 in 2008.
Unlike the U.S. role in Jraq. a
war that Obama opposed and is
drawing to a close, the Afghan
conflict has become a defining
part of his presidency. He sees it
as vital to American security and
has tripled the number of U.S.
forces there since he took office.
Yet only a minority of Americans
now support the war in
Afghanistan, and Obama 's success or failure in delivering credible, effective leadership in that
fight will affect his re-election
bid.
Obama has stressed that the
scale and pace of U.S. troop withdrawals starting in July 20 II
depend on conditions on the
ground, meaning mostly the level
of extremist violence, the degree
of improvement in the Afghan
army and police and the capacity
of the Afghan government to provide basic services.
He has never said exactly how
many U.S. troops will come home
next year nor set a timetable for
getting all 100,000 out of
Afghanistan by the end of 2014.
when combat operations are to
end. Gates made clear that such
calculations are yet to be made.
"I think the answer is, we don:t
know at this point," Gates said,
adding, "But the hope is that as
we progress, that those drawdowns will be able to accelerate."
One reason that any U.S. troop
withdrawals next summer are
likely to be small is that as Afghan
forces assume control in selected
districts and provinces, the U.S.
and NATO troops they replace
will be moved to other, less secure
areas.
Some allies, such as Canada,
have already said they will end
their combat mission next year
regardless of how the war is
·going.
Adm. Mike Mullen, chaim1an

of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, toured
small U.S. bases in Afghanistan's
provinces of Helmand and
Kandahar on Thursday. He said
he saw evidence that the U.S.
strategy is paying off with better
trust among American and
Afghan officers and civilians and
signs that local government figures are more responsive and
accountable.
"There have been improvements, bunhere is still a long way
to go," he told reporters who
accompanied him.
The White House assessment
asserted that the Tali ban's
momentum had been halted in
much of Afghanistan, while cautioning that these gains are "fragile and reversible." Gen. Oavid
Petraeus, the top U.S. and NATO
commander in Afghanistan, made
a similar point ~in remarks to
reporters earlier this month, but
with an important caveat not seen
in Thursday's report: The Taliban,

he said. still has 1 freedom of
movement and momentum in
some areas_
Obama cast the war as part of a
broader effort to defeat al-Qaida,
which is not present in
Afghanistan in large numbers but
has sanctuary in neighboring
Pakistan. He stressed both the
threat posed by al-Qaida and the
progress that has been made in
fmstrating the group's efforts to
pursue catastrophic attacks on the
United States.
"It will take time to ultimately
defeat ai-Qaida," he said, "and it
remains a ruthless and resilient
enemy bent on attacking our
country. But make no mistake. We
are going to remain relentless in
disrupting and dismantling that
terrorist organization."
Bmce Riedel. a senior fellow at
the Brookings Institution think
tank, saicl the administration wa~
right to make only modest claims
of progress in the war.
•
"We are far from being on tl
edge of anything anyone would
describe as success" in either
Afghanistan or Pakistan, he said
in a written analysis of the White
House review. "Yet at the same
time. we are no longer close to the
precipice of defeat and strategic
disaster as we were when the
president inherited the war in
January 2009."
·
.While U.S .. NATO and Afghan
forces have pushed insurgents
from their strongholds in southern
Afghanistan this year and are
aggressively going after militants
in the east, the Taliban have
opened new fronts in the west and
the north where security has been
deteriorating.
The U.S. is likely to continue to
press the Pakistanis to rout insurgents in North Waziristan, an area
along the Afghan border where
senior al-Qaida leaders are
believed to be hiding. But U.S.
officials have concluded that
Pakistan is unwilling to moun,
major offensive in Nor
Waziristan. partly ·because th
Pakistani army is already
stretched.
The White House report offered
no concrete proposals for getting
Pakistan to do more. saying simply that denying havens for
extremists on the Pakistan side of
the border "will require greater
cooperation with Pakistan,'" and
adding that this will require effective economic development work
in addition to military might.
The U.S. has spent far more in
Iraq over a shorter period, but
costs in Afghanistan are growing.
According to the Congressional
Budget Office, the U.S. spent an
average of $5.4 billion a month in
Afghanistan in the budget year
that ended in September. and the
total cost since the war began
stands at $336 billion.

A Hunger for Mo e
Having recently had
the annual opportunity to
once again watch A
Charlie
Brown
Christmas with my children, I found myself
compelled to consider
the wistful wisdom
offered to us by the
Peanuts comic strip creator, Charles Schultz.
The world of Snoopy,
Linus, Schroeder, Lucy,
Sally, Peppermint Patty,
and the rest is a bittersweet rehearsal of what
so many folks experience
in real life, but Schultz'
gentle approach also
helps us to find humor in
the daily ironies that
come their way.
Charlie Brown's idealism in the Christmas special is really a contrast of
a person whose heart's
cry is a hunger for more
than this life can give
with that of a people who
not only have forgotten
what the real point of
Christmas is but also
can't quite remember
what the point of their
Christianity is. There is a
real danger that just as
Lucy and the others
expect Charlie Brown to
come back with their idea
of the perfect Christmas
tree (a false one made of
aluminum), Christians
can come to build for
themselves artificial spiritual constructs and
believe these things to be
the means to personal
happiness.
And just what is an
"artificial spiritual construct"? For one thing it
is something we make or
possess that we then celebrate as evidence of our
spiritual well-being (like
a building). Another fom1
of it is a thing WE do
while we neglect the matters of our heart condition that Jesus found very
important (see Matthew
23:23-28 NIV). An "artificial spiritual construct''
then is nothing less than
an idol. It is something
that we have concocted
either by literally fashioning it with our hands
or in the imagining it
with our minds that then

"...these were more .noble... they
searched the scriptures daily..."
Serious Bible students know God has always given
clear and detailed in structions to man as to how He
wants to be served and worshipped. Efforts to justi.
the celebration of Jesus' birth fail because God
silent on the subject. 'Jhday, let's look at some of the
details surround111g .Jesus· birth that God records for
us.
God tells us .Jesus' mother was a virgin at the time
of His conception !"Therefore the Lord himself shall
give you a sign: Behold. a virgin shall conceive, and
bear a son. and shall call his name Immanuel" Isaiah 7: 14]. Matthew I: 18-25 records the fulfillment
of this prophecy.
He tells us where Jesus will be born [''But thou.
Bethlehem, Ephratah, though thou be little among the
thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come
forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel: whose
goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting
- · Micah 5:2]. Matthew 2:1-6 informs us that the
chief priests and n1lers of the Jews understood the
prophecy to point to the location of Jesus· birth.
The wise men who came from the East to worship
the King of the Jews were directed to Bethlehem,
"And when they were come into the house, they saw
the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down,
and worshipped him .. .'' [Matthew 2: 11). Look at
man's depiction of Jesus in the manger, surrounded
by animals and three wise men. Compare this with
God's account of the visit from the wise men: The
number of men is unknown: at the time of their visit,
Jesus was in a house and described as a "young
child...
•
After warmng the wise men in a dream to retu
home by ~mother route [Matthew 2:12], God sent an
angel to tell Joseph to take Mary and Jesus to Egypt,
thus fulfilling another prophecy: "When Israel was a
child. then I loved him, and called my son out of
Egypt" - Hosea 11:1 ; also Matthew 2:15.
Herod's cruel murder of the children under age 2
fulfills another prophecy: "Thus saith the Lord. A
voice was heard in Ramah. lamentation. and bitter
weeping; Rachel weeping for her children refused to
be comforted for her children. because they were not''
- Jeremiah 31 :15: with this. read Matthew 2:16-18.
Herod died on April I, 4B.C. After his death. God
sent a11 angel to Joseph, telling him he could safely
return to the land of Israel. According to Matthew
2:23, Joseph's choice of Nazareth as their home fulfilled yet another prophecy.
God's detailed account of His prophecies surrounding Jesus' birth and His showing us the fulfillment of
the prophecies tells us the omission of the date of
Jesus' birth was no accident: God specifically withheld from us that piece of information. Remembering
God's displeasure with Jeroboam for setting up a feast
not authorized by God. we need to be sure our religious activities are only those approved by God. The
first-century church understood that He set up a
weekly remembrance of Jesus' death. to be held on
the first day of the week. An example of this is reco.

t

to consider that what it is
God is giving for
Christmas goes beyond
the concept of Heavenly
in-house giving to that
giving which He has
nobly extended beyond
the
parameters
of
Heaven to mankind on
earth.
He
has
clearly
answered the question
through the giving of
His Son, Jesus Christ,
who was divinely and
miraculously
v1rgm
born. Being given to be
born was in fact being
given to provide eternal
redemption for citizens
of earth. not citizens of
Heaven. Eternal life for
each person believing
and committing to God
for salvation through
faith in Jesus Christ was
that special, loving gift
our Heavenly Father has
directed our way.
But, while the birth of
Jesus Christ was a one
time event. God continues His giving to
mankind at Christmas
through the sacred memory
of His· Son's
entram:e into this world.
God gives us the gift of
remembering this lifechanging event. The
yearly memory of His
Son's birth so impacts
our lives that, while we
know it was in the past.
it is so powerful and
fraught with spiritual
meaning it is as though
the gift of His birth just
occurred. God readily
and personally answers,

therefore, the question,
"What are you giving for
Christmas?"
Now, it is our turn to
consider the question.
What are you and I giving for Christmas that
transcends our in-house
giving? After all, is not
in-house giving, in so
many terms, an eventual
focus on self? Since this
is true, our true giving
focus should be such
giving as is directed
God-ward, and, it is
equally true that we give
to God best when we
give to others, Jesus
pointed out that when
we perform acts of kindness. or giving, toward
others that we indeed do
it toward Him.
You may want to consider taking a step
beyond the parameters
of in-house giving during this Christmas season to share some giving
focus on those in need
around you. There are
those who do, and are
well-blessed of God for
it. Join those who ideally
give to God. The
Sl:riptur~:: affirms the
principle, ''Remember
the words of the Lord
Jesus, how He said, 'It is
more blessed to give
than to receive."'
So, what was it that
Kinsley
originally
picked out to give to her

mouths wide open. One
day I tired of playing
"Army," and instead
declared I wanted to play
"Marines."
I wasn't sure how one
went about doing that,
but my father had been
one so I wanted to do
something akin to what
he had done. My partner
then informed me the one
was the same as the
other, so we continued
playing soldiers just as
we had been doing.
I defy any one reading
this to tell a U.S. Marine
that he or she is merely
the equal of. and/or no
better than, anyone in the
Army. There may be a
remote possibility this
same Marine will admit
to having something(s) in
common with a soldier.

There are at least two
things every member of
the U.S. military has in
common, regardless of
their gender or branch of
service: first, they all volunteered to serve; second. they have made a
real and sincere commitment "to uphold and
defend the Constitution
of these United States."
A third commonality is
this, that should they ever
be required to give their
life in the line of duty
these intrepid men and
women indeed will.
Fortunately. very few
really ever have to.
They will. however. be
compelled to forego family-time and, in like manner, might spend many
holidays away from
home and their loved
ones. Those of you reading this who are veterans
know the drill. I don't
have to remind you to
keep these present-day
patriots in your thoughts
and prayers!

he's probably heard more

A week ago I officiated
another funeral, and one
young lady in attendance
wore the uniform of an
Air Force R.O.T.C.

She's a junior in college
with the rank of an
upper-echelon cadet officer, and hopes to become
a pilot.
She'll succeed
because she has the

She also has a sacn·ficial

her future to doing what
she can for the good and
the betterment of our
beloved Country. May

While "they also serve

admire most those with
the nerve to serve in uniform - in sunshine and

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick makes a stop in Durham, North Carolina, Friday, February 26,
to speak to students and local residents at the New Horizons alternative school about his mistakes being
involved in dog fighting and of second chances in life. He was introduced to the packed assembly room by
Ralph Hawthorne, right, of the Humane Society of the United States.

Vick says he would like a pet
dog, renewing debate
PHILADELPHIA (AP)
Michael Vick is
barred from owning a
dog for a year and a half,
bQt the star quarterback's
comment that he'd like to
bring one into his house
generated renewed outrage - and support.
_:rhe convicted dogfighting ring operator
told the news site
TbeGrio.com that he
genuinely cares about
animals and would like to
have one for a pet again.
"I think it would be a
big step for me in the
rehabilitation process,.,
he said.
Vick has made similar
statements before, but
this time it seemed to
have grabbed the world's
attention. For example,
the gambling website
Bodog.com is offering
bets on what breed of dog
Vick might own in the
next two years.
Vick served 18 months
in. prison after being convicted in 2007. A judge
federal judge also sentenced him to three years
probation, ending in May
2012. One of the terms:
He could not own dogs
during that time.
Since
Vick
was
released from prison,
he's become a touchstone
for a deep debate: Can

people who do bad things
be redeemed?
"I really mean what I
say. I don't have a problem. I'm not a psychopath. I'm not crazy.
I'm a human being,"
Vick told The Associated
Press on Thursday.
"What happened in my
past and what I did in the
culture I grew up in does-'
n 't shape and mold me as
the person I am now. I
said it before that I wish I
can own a dog and I'll
continue to say it. I'm not
allowed ' to, but I'm just
saying I wish I could
because my kids ask me
every day. It's more so
for them than for me."
When he was signed by
the Philadelphia Eagles
last
year,
criticism
seemed to outweigh
cheers. But now that he's
again a top NFL player
and has spent time speaking with at-risk kids, he's
gained a bigger following of fans.

Ray
Morales,
Philadelphia, said that
Vick has worked to turn
his life around and

MINNEAPOLIS (AP)
-: Even after winding up
with a win, No. 21
Minnesota realized it must
do better at the beginning.
Blake Hoffa.rber scored
13 points to go over 1,000

Gophers beat Akron 66-58
Wednesday night.
Steve McNees scored

gave the bigger and
stronger Gophers all they
could handle for the first
30 minutes.
'"We can't come out

with no energy. We haye
to get better, to be honest,''
Mbakwe said. "In the Big
Ten, if you come out like
this, you'll be down 10-0

.Coach Tubby Smith
blamed the slow starts on
the snowball effect caused
by messing up inside.
"When you're missing
easy shots it'S kind of COntagiOUS. Everyone starts
losing energy," he said.
''We missed just easy,

had in a long time," Smith
said.
After Devoe Joseph hit
a 3-pointer - his ftrst

the Gophers stalled again.

Williams finished with

Hall of Farner Bob Feller dies at 92 QB Colt McCoy back ·
CLEVELAND (AP)Teenage pitching sensation, World War ll hero,
outspoken Hall of Farner
and local sports treasure.
Bob Feller was all of them.
0ne of a kind, he was an
American original.
Blessed with a right arm
hat earned the Iowa farm•
boy the nickname "Rapid
Robert" and made him one
of the greatest pitchers in
baseball history, Feller,
who left baseball in the
prime of his career to fi~ht
for his country, d1ed
Wednesday night. He was
92.
Feller, who won 266
games in 18 seasons - all
with the Indians - died at
9: 15 p.m. on Wednesday
night of acute leukemia at
a hospice, said Bob
DiBiasio, the Indians vice
president of public relations.
Remarkably fit until late
in life, Feller had suffered
serious health setbacks in
recent months. He was
diagnosed with leukemia
in August, and while
unde~oin~ chemotherapy,
he famtea and his heart
briefly
stopped.
Eventually. he had pacemaker implanted.
In November, he was
hospitalized with pneumo•
nia and rectfntly released
into hospice care.
Even as his health deteriorated, Feller continued
doing what he loved most
attending Indians
games deep into last season.
''Nobody lives forever
and I've had a blessed
life," Feller said in
September. "I'd like to stay
on this side of the grass for
as long as I can, though.
I'd really like to see the
Indians win a World
Series."
Feller, in fact, was part
of the rotation the last ume
the Indians won it all - in
1948.
Fiercely ~roud and patriotic, Feller s life was much
like one of his overpowering fastballs. He seemed
unstoppable, whether on
the mound or in conversa.on. Feller, who broke into
e majors at the tender age
• of 17, could always bring
the heat.
"Bob Feller is gone. We
cannot be surprised,"
Indians owner Larry Dolan
said in a statement. ''Yet, it
seems improbable. Bob
has been such an integral
part of our fabric, so much
more than an ex-ballplayer, so much more than any
Cleveland Indians player.
He is Cleveland, Ohio.
"To say he will be
missed is such an understatement. More to the
point, he will not be
missed because he will
always be with us," he
said.
Feller was part of a
vaunted Indians' rotation
in the 1940s and '50s with
fellow Hall of Farners Bob
Lemon and Early Wynn.
He finished with 2,581
career strikeouts, led the
American League in
rikeouts seven times,
tched three no-hitters •
mcluding the only one on
opening day and
recorded a jaw-dropping
12 one-hitters.
Feller's
win
total
remains a Cleveland team
record, one that seems
almost untouchable in
today's free-agent era. His
numbers would no doubt
have been even greater had
his career not been interrupted by World War ll.
The first pitcher to win
20 games before he was
21, Feller was enshrined in
Cooperstown in 1962, his
first year of eligibility.
The Indians retired his
No. 19 jersey in 1957 and
immortalized the greatest
player in franchise history
with a statue when they
opened their downtown
stadium in 1994. The
sculpture is vintage Feller,
captured forever in the
rn1ddle of his patented
drnill windup, rearing
k to fire another pitch.
•
"When
you
think
Cleveland Indians. you
think Bob Feller and vice
versa,'' Indians manager
Marmy Acta said. "He was
a genuine patriot and a bigtime Hall of Farner. Boy,
he loved the Indians and
we all loved him back."
Baseball was only a part
of Feller's remarkable
story.

as the Browns' starter

AP f ile photo

In this Feb. 28, 1941, file photo, Cleveland Indians star pitcher Bob Feller works on
his form during spring training baseball in Fort Myers, Fla. Feller, the Iowa farm boy
whose powerful right arm earned him the nickname "Rapid Robert" and made him
one of baseball's greatest pitchers during a Hall of Fame career with the Indians,
has died Wednesday. He was 92.
·

Stirred by Japan's bombing of Pearl Harbor on
Dec. 7, 1941, Feller enlisted in the Navy the following day - the ftrst major
league player to do so. He
served as a gun captain on
the USS Alabama, earning
several battle commendations and medals.
"More impressive than
his vast accomplishments
on the fteld was being part
of
'The
Greatest
Generation,"' Baseball
Commissioner Bud Selig
said. '.'·Bob served our
country for nearly four
years during the prime of
his career. Bob was a great
pitcher, but he was first and
foremost
a
great
American."
Never afraid to offer a
strong opinion on any subject, Feller remained phystcally active in his later
years. At the end of every
winter, he attended the.
Indians' fantasy camp in
either Florida or Arizona.
One of the highlights of the
weeklonu event was
always Feller, in uniform,
taking the mound and
striking out campers, some
of whom were 50 years
younger.
Another rite of spring for
Cleveland fans was seeing
Feller at the Indians' training camp. Before home
exhibition games in Winter
Haven, Fla., or more
recently in Goodyear,
Ariz., Feller would throw
out the ceremonial flrst
pitch. Intr:oduced to a ~ous­
mg ovatiOn every ttme,
Feller delivered the throw
with the same high leg
kick he used while blazing
fastballs past overmatched
hitters.
"We have all lost a friend
and the nation has lost an
icon," former Indians manager Mike Hargrove said.
"Bob was always there
with a word of advice or a
story. The thing is that they
were always relevant and
helpful. I will never forget
before the first game of the
'97 World Series, Bob
carne up to me and patted
me on the back and told
me how proud he was of
me and the team, then ~ave
me a buckeye and srud it
was for luck.
"I don't think that Bob
ever believed in luck. just
hard work and an honest
effort. I will miss Bob ve~
much. He was my friend, '
he said.
An eight-time AU-Star,
Feller compiled statistics
from 1936 through 1956
that guaranteed his Hall of
Fame enshrinement. He
led the AL in victories six
times and is still the
indians' career leader in
shutouts (46), innings
pitched (3,827), walks
(1,764), complete games
(279), wins and strikeouts.
Despite losing his two
starts, Feller won a World
Series title with the Indians
I

•

in 1948.
When he returned from
military duty in 1946.
Feller arguably had his
finest season, going 26-15
with a 2.18 ERA and pitching 36 complete games
and LO shutouts. For comparison's sake, the Indians'
entire pitching staff had lO
complete games and four
shutouts last season.
Born Nov. 3, 1918, near
Van Meter. Iowa, Robert
Andrew William Feller
was 16 when he caught the
eye of Indians scout Cy
Slapnicka.
Feller made his first
major league start on Aug.
23, 1936, two months shy
of turning 18. He never
pitched in the minors, and
when the Indians decided
to use him in a reiief role
on July 19, 1936, he was
the youngest player ever to
pitch in a major league
game. Many wondered if
the kid - who would later
credit his arm strength to
milking cows, picking
corn, and baling hay was in over ~ head.
Hardly.
Using a fastball later
dubbed "the Van Meter
heater,'' Feller struck out
15- two shy of the major
league record in his first
game, beating the St. Louis
Browns 4-1 - a star was
born. Later that season,
Feller established the AL
record by striking out 17
Philadelphia Athletics.
In 1938, Feller set the
major league record by
striking out 18 against the
Detroit TI~ers. No pitcher
in the AL tanned more in a
nine-inning game until
Nolan Ryan in 1974. By
the time Feller joined the
military at 23, he had won
109 games and was well
on the way to baseball
fame.
In his day, nobody threw
harder than Feller, who
sometimes had trouble
with his control. Because
speed devices weren't as
advanced as they are today,
it's impossible to aauge
precisely how fast Feller
threw in his prime. There is
famous black-and-white
film footage of Feller's
fastball being clocked as it
races against a motorcycle
said to be traveling at 100
mph.
·
Feller once said he was
clocked at 104 mph.
Even in his later years.
Feller could recall pitchfor-pitch duels with ~at
hitters like Ted Williams
and Joe DiMaggio. He said
his biggest thtill in the
game was when he
returned from the military
to pitch a no-hitter against
New York at Yankee
Stadium.
He always credited his
father, Bill. with encouraging his baseball runbitions.
"My father kept me busy
from dawn to dusk when I
was a kid," FeUer said.

"When I wasn't pitching
hay. hauling corn or running a tractor, I was heavin~ .a baseball into his mitt
benind the bam."
Feller said the greatest
_hitter he ever faced, without
question,
was
Williams.
although
Williams had only a .270
average against him.
''I was a little luckier
against him than the others.'' Feller said. "But he
beat me in more games
than I care to remember.
Joe DiMaggio was the
only right-hander who hit
me consistently. The fellow who hit me best,
thoush. was Tommy
Hennch, the Yankees' old
reliable."
After retiring from baseball, Feller worked in the
insurance business, but he
never got completely away
from the game. In 1981, he
returned to work for the
Indians as a spring training
pitching coach and in the
team's public relations
office.
As recently as last season, Feller was a fiXture in
the
press
box
at
Progressive Field. Sitting
in the media dinin~ area
before games or m the
san1e seat during them, he
would offer his thoughts
on any current event and,
of course, his assessment
on the Indians.
When
Washington's
Stephen Strasburg made
his second start in
Cleveland, Feller refused
to get caught up in the

hype.
"Check back with me
when he's won 100
games," he said.
Cleveland's chapter of
the Baseball Writers
Association of America
recently asked the Indians
to turn Feller's press box
seat into a shrine area.
Feller didn't care for
crowds and didn't particularly enjoy interacting with
fans, but he often attended
memorabilia shows to sign
autographs for a nominal
fee. Sometimes gruff.
Feller would sign his autograph and listen as fans
asked him questions and
posed for pictures with an
tconic man who meant so
much to them.
Feller was critical of
contemporary ballplayers.
He' viewed them as spoiled
and felt they didn't work as
hard at their craft as he and
his peers. Feller never softened on his stance that Pete
Rose. baseball's hits
leader. should remain
harmed for betting on baseball.
Fellttr, who lived in
Gates Mills, Ohio. is survived by his wife, Anne,
and three sons. Steve.
Martin and B1uce.
The Indians said details
on a public memo1ial ser
vice will be announced in
the near future.

BEREA, Ohio (AP)
- Colt McCoy barely
blinked as he tried to
insist that it was just
another ' day for the
Cleveland Browns.
The rookie didn't fool
anyone. This was hard-.
ly routine.
Stepping way out of
character, coach Eric
Mangini named McCoy
his starting quarterback
for this week's game at
Cincinnati (2-11) and
for the remainder of this
season - home games
against AFC North big
boys Baltimore and
Pitt~burgh.
McCoy,
who hasn't played since
spraining his left ankle
on
Nov.
21
at
Jacksonville, has been
entrusted
with
Cleveland's offense for
three games that could
determine
Mangini's
future.
''It's no landmark
day,''
McCoy
said
before
practice
Thursday. ''Today is the
day that, now I know
I· m the starter. I gotta
go out and play and go
out and get better and I
gotta go out and help us
win."
After
checking
McCoy's mobility for a
final
time
on
Wednesday, Mangini
decided to put him back
in the starting lineup
ahead of veteran Jake
Delhomme. who struggled last week in a loss
at Buffalo.
Mangini said it was
his call to go with
McCoy. but that he consulted with team president Mike Holmgren
before making it official.
''I felt like he's earned
this opportunity and I
want to give it to him."
Mangini said. "I want to
see how he continues to
grow. This is by no
stretch just throwing a
young guy in for the
sake of throwing a
young guy in. If I didn't
think that he could go
out and lead us and be
successful doing that,
then I wouldn't make
this decision. But I do
feel that way and I feel
strongly about it.''
While
Mangini's
decision will please the
majority of Browns
fans. it's not known
what affect it could
have on Holmgren, who
intends to wait until
after the season before
deciding whether to
bring his coaching staff
back. The Browns (5-8)
have been wildly erratic
this
season,
and
Holmgren wants stability.
Mangini,
though,
isn't playing McCoy to
appease his boss. He
said he's playing him
because he believes
McCoy gives his team
the best shot of ·winning.
''It's not just a function of trying to get him
his letter or anything
like that," Mangini said.
"He's earned this. I
wouldn't put the team
in a position and all the
guys in a p"o sition
where we're playing a
guy just to play a guy.
we: re all trying to win
games."
McCoy only received
his original chance
because of inJUries to
Delhomme and Seneca
Wallace. But forced to
play on Oct. 17 at
Pittsburgh, he showed a
toughness and poise
that seemed to surprise

..

.
~

the
Browns,
who :
weren't sure what they ;
had after the former·
Texas star struggled in
training camp and the
preseason.
McCoy passed for
975 yards and three
touchdowns
while
going 2-3 as a starter
before getting hurt.
He's determined to
make the most of this
second chance.
"I never looked for
someone ·to name me
the starting quarterback.'' he said. " I just
need to go out there and
play. There are a lot of
ways I can get better,
there are a lot of things
I can improve on and
that's what I'm going to
do the rest of the year."
And a good reason
why,
is
because
Delhomme 's comeback
season crashed.
The
35-year-old
signed with Cleveland
hoping to revive his
career, but a severe
ankle injury and his
inability to keep the
Browns' offense moving consistently led to
the switch. As reporters
waited to speak with
McCoy.
Delhomme
dressed quietly for .
practice nearby.
·
''I'm going to work
my tail off and always
be ready," he said. ''You
just have to take it in
str ide. That's what I
believe. That's how I
work and that's what
I'll do."
Mangini
said ·
Delhomme handled the
news with typical class.
"He couldn't have
been more professional,
couldn't have been
more supportive not
only of Colt, but of the
whole team," Mangini
said. "Colt is incredibly
lucky to have someone
like him in the building
at this part of his career,
because you can't ask
for a better team player
than Jake Delhomme."
At this point. the ·
Browns shouldn't be
shocked by another spin
of Cleveland's quarter~
back carousel. Since
Delhomme was injured
in the opener. the
Browns have made four
changes at their most
vital
position.
Delhomme made four
starts, Wallace made
four and McCoy is
going on his sixth.
The Browns are hoping they don't have to
shift again. But the way
this season has evolved,
nothing can be ruled
out.

McCoy's moxie has
won over Cleveland
fans and his teammates.
''He's been a winner
at every level and he's
cool and confident."
running back Peyton
Hillis said. ·• And when
you're confident, it·
tends to lead to good
things. He's shown
some good things, of
course he· s young and
has to learn. He'll be in
the fire a few times
before he can really get
it. but I think the first
few times against real
quality opponents, him
doing so well is a really
good thing.··

Miami's Haywood takes Pitt job

1

PllTSBURGH (AP) Miami (Ohio) coach
,\llichael Haywood, known
for his fiery speeches and
CEO-like leadership ::-kills,
has been chosen by Pitt to
succeed Dave Wannstedt
as coach.
Haywood, 10-15 in two
seasons in the MidConfl'rl!ncc,
American
held a series of n11.:etings
on campus Wednesday

with Pitt officials - &lt;;ome
of which were s1X1ttcd by
students. He thl!n rl!tumed
to Oxford, Ohio. where he
brokl! the news to Miami's
players at a late-night
meeiing.
Ha~wood was the only
known candidate interviewed for the job.
although Pitt also may
have had interest in new
~liami coach AI Golden
and new West Virginia
offensive
coordinator
Dana Holgorsen before
they t(Xlk their new jobs.
Fom1erly the oftensive
coordinator at Notre
D&lt;mle, Haywood was 1-11
in his first season at Miami
in 2009 before uoing 9-4
this season and beating
Northern Illinois 26-21 in
the MAC championship
grune.
Miami \'/as I 0-27 in the
three · seasons before
Hayw&lt;X&gt;d's arrival.

Wnnnstedt
resigned
under pressure Dec. t following a 7-5 season in
which Pitt was ranked No.
15 in September and was
picked to win the Big East.
only to have numerous top
players have disappointing
years. Wannstedt was 4132 in six seasons, including J0-3 last year. after
bcmg hired to upgrade a
program that had gone to a
BCS bowl under f6rmer
coach Walt Harris. but
never reached one under
the fom1er Chicago Bears
and Miami Dolphins
conch.
At Miami, Haywood
became known for making
his players wenr coat~ and
ties on road trips - the
idea being that players
who dress professionally
\\~II conduct themselves on
the field accordingly and for being a skilled
motivator. His pregame
talk before Miami's 23-3
victory against Temple
was widely viewed on
YouTube.
H(\ywood's hiring did
not immediately excite
Pitt's fan ba&lt;&gt;e or students.
Radio talk shows and Pittrelated message boards
were overwhelmed \vith
calls and messages criticizing the hiring of a MAC
coach rather than one from

a major school. Others
suggested West Virginia
moved faster and more
forcefully in bringing in
Holgorsen, who is regnrded lb one of college football's top offensive coaches.
Even a fonner Mtami
player, Stcelers qum1erback Ben Roethlisber~er,
didn't seem all that exc1ted
about the news. The
Steelers and Pitt share a
pmcticc c:omplex on
Pittsburgh's South Side.
"He (Haywood) never
reached out to me,"
Roethlisberger
said
Wednesday. "I don't really
know him. 1 know what
helped .\1mmi. Ohio win
this year. in my opinion,
more than anything, is
Brad Bates, the athletic
director. What an awesome
guv."
Haywood. a fonner
~otrc Dame cornerback,
has conched at A1}ny, Ohio
U., Ball State, LSl J, Texas
and Notre Dame, working
under Charlie Web, Nick
Saban and Mack Brown,
among others.· Haywood
was chosen as the
American
Pootball
Coaches Association assistant of the year in 2005. but
lost his play-calling duties
with Notre Oan1e in 200R.
Be ha-. coached multiple

positions. including wide
receivers, linebackers, running backs. defensive ends
and special teams.
Before being hired by
Miami, the 46-year-old
Haywood was passed over
for head coa~hing jobs at
Houston, Mmnesota and.
Washington.
The negative reaction to
the hiring by Pitt athletic
director Steve Pederson
was similar to that \\'hen
Pcder:son,
then
at
Nebraska, hired fonner
Oakland Raiders coach
Bill Callahan to succeed
the fired Frank Solich following a 9-3 season in
2003. Callahan proved to
be a flop, and both he and
Pederson were fired by
Nebraska in 2007. A few
months later. Peder::.on
returned to Pitt, where he
had hired Ben Howland as
basketball coach during a
previou~ stay from 19962002.
Haywood 1s the first
black head coach in a
n~ajor men's sport at Pitt.
P1tt is expected to return at
least I 6 starters next season from a team that lost
badly at home to Miami of
the ACC and West
Virginia. was upset by
Connecticut and lost non.
conference games ae.ainst
Utah and Notre Dame.

Diebler's 29 points lead Buckeyes 83-55 Goodell hopes labor can be
COLUMBUS, Ohio
(AP) - Nine straight
times Jon Diebler flicked
his wrist behind the arc,
and every time the ball
swished through the net.
It was one of the great·
est shooting performances ever for an Ohio
State player.
Diebler matched an
Ohio State record with
those nine 3-pointers,
scoring a career-high 29
points and leading the
second-ranked Buckeyes
past Florida Gulf Coast
83-55 on Wednesday
night.
"I knew I missed my
first two of the game and
Coach told me I wa~n 't
ready to shoot and to just
get ready and get my feet
set." the senior guard
said. ''I started doing that
and they started falling
for me."
Boy, did they. After hitting nine in a row, he
stayed 111 another 4 minutes but missed his last
three attempts at the
record. That made him 9
for 14 overall on'3s.
"When he let it go. you
felt good that it was
going to go in," coach
Thad Matta said. ''Even
the last couple he missed
I thought were pretty
good looks and had a
chance."
Matta said it was more
than just a sharp night.
"The thin~ about Jon,
and I've sa1d this since
the day he got here. for
every nine he made. he's
probably shot 90,000 in
the offseason," he said.
'To see him shoot the
ball like this is rewarding
because the work's paying off."
Diebler passed another
former Ohio State star,
Jay Burson. to become
Ohio's leading ' high
school scorer four years
ago. The nine 3s were a
Value City Arena record
and tied the school mark
previously
held
by
Burson.
"We can't get away
from each other. I guess,''
Diebler said with grin.
He now has made a
school-best 291 shots
behind the arc. With his
second 3 of the game,
Diebler moved past
Indiana ·s A.J. Guyton
(1997-2000) into seventh
place all-time in 3-pointers made by Big Ten
·players.
FGCU coach Dave
Baiza said it was the best
3-point marksmanship he
had seen since one of his
own
players.
