Southern earned status as a school of excellence last school year 2008-2009. but felt that a new math series could fUJther improve the district's math scores. Scores have steadily risen :-ince the implementation of the Matb Coach three years ago. Wolfe said. Because of its success. Southern was one of only a few schools to keep the program in the third and fourth year. After McNickle addressed the parents. students began IS-minute mini-lessons to teach their parents what they had learned in math class so far this school year. Every 15 minutes the groups rotated to different activities to get a variety of exposure to the ne\\ s vstem.

BROT H ERS Politzcal activist uses kids to push cause BY DR. JOYCE B ROTHERS Dear Dr. Brothers: I am sort of disgusted with one of the women in our town. I know she is very passionate about her causes - she's all <;aught up in the health-care debate - but the problem is that she forces her children to be pawns in this game. For example • . at a recent town-hall meeting with a member of Congress. she brought her kids vand made them wear signs like ~-I don't have health insurance" and stuff like that. Isn't this abusive to 5- and 7-year-old children? - M.R. Dear M.R.: Let me guess - you are on the other side of the health-care debate. right? I appreciate your concern for the children you feel are being mistreated, but I imagme an opposition to the woman's politics might make your feelings even stronger. Othe1wise it is a bit hard to fathom why you would describe ttlis situation in terms of "abuse," '"force'' and "made them." Are the children crying and unhappy at these rallies? Is the mother barking orders at them? If so, it would be a good idea to intervene on the children's behalf. If not. the kids may be experiencing their first taste of politics with a curious and open attitude. As long as there is not a lot of hatred and shouting. which may frighten them (and that\ not a giYen at these meetings anymoreJ . chances are the t1me spent with their mother at a public forum is not really harmful to their development. On the other hand. I can see where you are coming from in terms of using the kids as pawns . While it is every parent's right to inculcate his or her children with whatever he or she happens to believe in matters of politics. religion and other personal issues, there is a fine line between using the kids and educating them. ln the next few years. those children may be old enough to have their own opinions on the matters that are no doubt way over their heads now. I t is easier to swallow when a parent sticks to topics the child can understand when showcasing them. old. or to look inside their head and see that they may be preparing themselves for dying or death. Yet this is a perfectly natural and appropriate process for your mother to be going through . Naturally. she would like some of her special things to stay in the family, but if she senses that the family is uncomfot1able about getting that process started. she may interpret it as you not caring about her precious things, or just not caring about her. That may have precipitated her turning to the cleaning girl. On the other hand. the cleaning girl may have worked for her for years, may,have helped her out in a million little \Vays and may be a valued employee whom your mother wants to reward. So 1 ••• Dear Dr. Brothers: I am writing for myself and my brothers and sisters. There arc six of us. Our problem is our mother. She has 17 grandchildren. Dad is gone, and since Mom is nov,. in her early 80s. she is starting to try to give away her stuff - jewelry, china, other old keepsakes and what have you. We are rather uncomfol1able about this. But then we heard her offering a·pair of earrings to the cleaning girl! We don't know how to deal with all of this. Please help.- K.B. Dear K.B.: No one likes to think of their parents as Thanksgiving Day Main Facility lpm-6pm HOLZER C LIN IC Jackson, Athens, Meigs Facilities 12pm-6pm Friday, Saturday, and Sunday Main Facility lpm-9pm Meigs Facility 11am-9pm Jackson Facility 11am-9pm Athens Facility 9am-9pm would take their relationship into account before you begin to panic . There is yet another possibility. If your mother is declining mentally, she may confusedly give her things away to anyone who comes along. So you have good reason to stop running away from this awkward time. and no matter how pai nful. rise to the occasion. Your children and grandchildren should gather around and Jet Grandma k now how much she is loved and how much you want to help her distribute her things to her own satisfaction. either now or by a fair process later.

Nov. 26, the 330th day of 2009. There are 35 days left in the year. This is Thanksgiving Day. Today's Highlight in History: Nov. 26, 1789, was a day of thanksgiving set aside by President George Washington to observe the adoption of the Constitution of the United States. On this date: In 1825, the first college soc1al fraternity, the Kappa Alpha Society, was formed at Union College m Schenectady, N.Y. In 1842, the founders of the University of Notre Dame arnved at the school's present-day site near South Bend, Ind. In 1883, former slave and abolitionist Sojourner Truth died in Battle Creek, Mich. In 1933, a judge in New York decided the James Joyce book Ulysses" was not obscene and could be published in the United States. In 1942, Pres1dent Franklin D. Roosevelt ordered nationwide gasohne rationing, beginnmg Dec. 1. The motion picture "Casablanca:• starnng Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman, had its world premiere at the Hollywood Theater in New York. In 1943, during World War II, the HMT Rohna, a British transport ship carrying American soldiers, was hit by a German missile off Algeria; 1,138 men were killed. In 1949, India adopted a constitution as a republic within the British Commonwealth. In 1950, China entered the Korean War. launching a counteroffensive against soldiers from the United Nations, the U.S. and South Korea. In 1965, France launched its first satellite, sending a 92-pound capsule into orbit. In 1973, President R1chard N1xon's personal secretary, Rose Mary Woods, told a federal court that she'd accidentally caused part of the 18 1/2-minute gap in a key " Watergate tape. Ten years ago: Sixteen people were killed when a Norweg1an high-speed passenger ferry hit a shoal and sank off Boemla Island, 250 m1les west of Oslo. Five years ago: Leading Iraqi politicians called for a six-month delay in the Jan. 30 election because of spiraling violence: President George W. Bush said, "The Iraqi Elect1on Comm1ssion has scheduled elections in January, and I would hope they'd go forward in January." (The vote took place as scheduled.) French movie director Philippe de Broca ("King of Hearts") died at age 71. One year ago: Teams of heavily armed gunmen, allegedly from Pakistan, stormed luxury hotels, a popular tourist attract1on and a crowded train station in Mumbai, India. leaving at least 166 people dead in a rampage lasting some 60 hours. A Missouri mother on trial in a landmark cyberbullying case was convicted by a federal jury in Los Angeles of three minor offenses for her role 1n a mean-spirited Internet hoax that apparently drove a 13-year-old girl, Megan Meier, to suicide. (However, Lori Drew's convictions were later dismissed.) Thought for Today: "Some minds remain open long enough for the truth not only to enter but to pass on through by way of a ready exit without pausing anywhere along the route." - Sister Elizabeth Kenny, Australian nurse (1886-1952).

"There was so much hope for this project in terms of economic development and AMP's been a good neighbor by becoming involved in the community in a positive way. I'm still hopeful that we '11 be able to salvage some type of project at their Letart Falls site. I'm hopeful considering they already have a considerable investment in the county." Stewart then talked about the implications of the abandoned project at the federal level. "l hope this is a wake up call at the federal level for future projects to streamline this process,'' Stewart added. "We have a permitting process that took over four years to get through and in that four years time. obviously construction costs have changed considerably. It's disheartening to think when virtually every elected official supports a project like this. we just can't seem to make it happen." Rep.

The AMP plant was estimated to cost $3 billion before the latest cost estimate came out this month, which showed a project increase of 31 percent. a major reason for why the coal-fired plant was dropped.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - Wal-Mart Stores announced it will keep its stores open 24 hours and take new crowd-control measures Thanksgiving weekend after a temporary employee was trampled to death in a Black Friday rush last year. The world's largest retailer says day-afterThanksgiving sales will begin at 5 a.m. Nov. 27. but most U.S. stores will be open 24 hours to prevent a mad dash. The announcement doesn't affect most of Wal-Mart 's Supercenters. which are already open 24 hours. Spokesman David Tovar said the change affects about 800 stores that aren't currently open roundthe-clock. Instead lining up outside Walmart, customers can gather in different areas of the store, waiting for the deals to begin, Tovar said. "If you've got a 200.000square-foot store. people w11l be dispersed throughout the store instead of lined up outside the store," Tovar said. Federal safety regulators cited Wal-Mart for inadequate crowd management after the Nov. 28. 2008, death of a temporary employee at a Long Island, N.Y., store. A crowd of shoppers broke down the store's doors. trapping employee Jdimytai Damour. who died of asphyxiation. Wal-Mart was required to create improved crowd management plans for all its 92 New York stores as part of a deal with prosecutors that avoided crimi .nal charges in the trampling death. It also was required to set up a $400,000 victims' compensation fund, and give $1.5 million to social services programs and nonprofit groups. The agreement included no admission of guilt by Wal-Mart. As part of the settlement, Wal-Mart consulted with safety experts who've worked with the Super Bowl, Olympics, major concerts and national political conventions to come \lp with safety plans for each of its stores. Crowdmanagement staff should make sure people are orderly as they enter the store, while maps may be provided with locations of Black Friday deals, according to the safety recommendations. ' The plan calls for the hottest items - markeddown TVs, toys and laptop computers, for example to be placed far apart to prevent big crowds from gathering. . Each store-specific plan looked at how customers approach and enter the store, how they check out and leave, as well as how customers move around the store and near the biggest · bargains. Shoppers around the country line up early outside stores on the day after Thanksgiving in the annual bargain-hunting ritual known as Black Friday. It got that name because it traditionally was considered the day stores broke into profitability for the full year. PageA6 Thursday, November 26, 2009 Stores look to basics to draw in holiday shoppers Bv ANNE D ' I NNOCENZIO People are still "very nervous about the future.'' said Tracy Mullin, president of the federation. ''But I think the good news is that stores get this new consumer, and the products are much less showy.'' Stores had reason for optimism when shoppers came back tO life a bit in September and October, finally reversing more than a year of sales declines. On Wednesday. the government said October consumer spending was up 0.7 percent, better than expected. The momentum slowed in early November, particularly for clothing stores. Electronics have been a bright spot, though, thanks to early discounting of TVs and the unveiling of new video games - notably Activision 's "Call of Duty: Modem Warfare 2 .'' As the financial meltdown and recession have kept shoppers frugal, stores have tweaked their merchandising approach for Black Friday. so named because it was traditionally the day when crowds of shoppers pushed stores into profitability. Price cuts on big-ticket items like flat-panel TVs and computers are again being used to bring shoppers into stores. But this year, stores are also using necessities like diapers and socks as what the industry calls "loss leaders" - items that stores are willing to lose money on in order to draw shoppers through the doors. "Customers have cut back their spending broadly, and retailers need to take advantage of every time they're in the stores," said John Long, retail strategist at Kurt Salmon Associates. Clothing stores are marking down not just seasonal items but also the basics, like socks. officials at maJI operators Simon Properties and Taubman Centers said. And Sears Holdings Corp., which operates Sears and Kmart stores, is making sure to highlight jackets, tool kits, blankets and boots in its Black Friday promo- ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK - As stores prepare for hordes of Black Friday shoppers and mark down high-definition TVs and hot toys. they're also pushing deals on something more mundane - necessities like socks and diapers. Toys R Us, Walmart and clothing stores in malls are responding to tough economic times by luring people who are making it a more practical holiday this year. What should shoppers expect? Fewer sumptuous sweaters, $200 robotic toys and other flashy items. Everyday items like flannel shirts, blankets and underwear are the order of the day. They are designed to appeal to people like John La. a computer programmer from New York. who says he'll focus on simpler things like gloves and sweaters after layoffs hit his company earlier this year. "I am not going to splurge,'' he said. Toys R Us' Babies R Us stores are armed with deals on jumbo packs of diapers and baby food for their 5 a.m. opening on Black Friday. Spokeswoman Kathleen Waugh expects shoppers will buy these staples not just for themselves but also as practical gifts. Walmart's Black Friday promotions include $7 fleece jackets and $3 children's pajamas alongside 50-inch Sanyo plasma HDTVs for $598. The promotional blitz at the start of the holiday shopping season has high stakes this year both for retailers that have suffered through a year of sales declines and for the economy, which could use a lift from consumer spending. Thanksgiving also falls fairly late this year, meaning fewer shopping days. The National Retail Federation trade group expects Black Friday crowds to be bigger this year, but retail consultant Walter Loeb says spending for the weekend will be at best unchanged from last year.

The traditional holiday shopping season is about to start as stores prepare for hordes of Black Friday shoppers. tions, spokesman Tom Aiello said. The early sales from the big chains and discounters have helped attract customers, but the preThanksgiving discounts at clothing stores in malls were mostly ignored by shoppers, BMO Capital Markets analyst John Morris said. One thing that could work in stores' favor: Shoppers who put off buying all but the most essential items all year may finally use the holidays as an excuse to splurge a little. Marcia Layton Turner, a freelance writer from Rochester, N.Y., plans to join the Black Friday crowds to grab deals on toys like Legos and Wii games for her two children, ages 10 and 8. "I delayed buying some toys for the kids for a couple of months." she said.

The mjury kept him out of a 20-17 loss at Oakland. Coach Marvin Lewis said Wednesday that Benson is "very close" and might be able to play against the Browns, a team he ran over last year. Benson had a career-high 38 carries for 171 yards in a 14-0 win in Cleveland last December in a zero wind chi]]. . Rookie backup Bernard Scott is expected to get a lot of carries against Cleveland, even if Benson is able to play. Larry Johnson also could see more time on the field in his second game since he signed with Cincinnati. Scott. a sixth-round draft pick from Abilene Christian. has emerged in the last two es. He returned a kickoff ards for the only touchn duting an 18-12 win in burgh. He also kept the running game going after Benson hurt his hip during the game, carrying 13 times for 33 yards. In Oakland, he ran 21 times for 119 yards. The 21 carries were only eight shy of his total for the first nine games. "Bernard has earned an opportunity to continue to play," Lewis said. ''He'll have a chance, and he '11 get some opportunities one way or the other. If Ced is back and playing, Bemard will still play a considerable amount this week." The Bengals (7-3) lead the AFC North by a game over Pittsburgh and will be trying to run the table in division games when they play Cleveland.

Quinn, now playing for the NFL's Cleveland Browns, says Notre Dame would be making a "horrible decision" if it fires coach Charlie Weis. Quinn played two seasons for Weis with the Fighting Irish and says there have been a "lot of circumstances" leading to Notre Dame's slide. Browns QB Quinn b·acks embattled Weis BEREA (AP) - Brady Quinn's best game as a pro seemed to make him nostalgic about his college days. With Charlie Weis perhaps down to his fmal days at Notre Dame. Cleveland's quarterback said he would love to be reunited with his former coach. "It'd be nice,'' Quinn said. ''I'd like to play under him again if I had the opportunity. It'd be cool." Quinn set career-highs with four touchdown passes and 304 passing yards in a gutwrenching loss at Detroit on Sunday. On Wednesday, he spent a portion of his locker room availability addressing speculation about We is' future with the Fighting Irish. Quinn played two seasons for Weis. One of the most popular and successful players in ND history, Quinn believes the school would be making a mistake if they fire Weis. ''Personally I think it would be a honible decision if they did make that change," Quinn said. " I think there are a lot of circumstances that play into seasons like this. Hopefully he'll have an opportunity to have another year with the guys." There are signs Weis is on his way out at Notre Dame (6-5). which will conclude its regular season on Saturday at Stanford. Athletic director Jack Swarbrick said Weis will return to campus a(ter the game, detouring from a previously planned West Coast recruiting trip. With a manageable schedule, this was supposed to be the season the Fighting Irish returned to national prominence and made a BCS bowl. Instead, the~ have been plagued by close losses - Must win? Neither Ravens, Steelers can afford loss PITTSBURGH (AP) Back when linebacker Terrell Suggs was wearing anti-Steelers T-shirts during training camp. he probably wouldn't have believed the Ravens 'would be chasing the Cincinnati Bengals in late November. No doubt the Steelers dido 't expect to be, either. The first of two SteelersRavens games during the final six weeks of the NFL season won't be for first place in the AFC North. but it could serve as a last chance for one of last season's conference finalists. If the Ravens (5-5) lose Sunday night in Baltimore, the playoffs probably aren't a realistic goal. If the Steelers (6-4 lose to their biggest rivals and extend their losing streak to three, their chances of catching the r division-leading Bengals (73) would diminish greatly. Their stunning 27-24 overtime loss to the Chiefs left the Steelers in a "miserable" mood, safety Ryan Clark said. He can only imagine how they'd feel if they lost to the Ravens, too. "This game is important to us for one reason. because it's the next one. and also because we are coming off two losses,'' Clark said Wednesday. ''To come off a week wh~re you lose to Kansas City. a team you expect to beat and everybody in your division loses, you don't gain on Cincinnati, you don't get a game up on J?~ltimore: you keep yourselt m that same place. it's disappointing.'' Any Baltimore-Pittsburgh matchup is a big one for the rivals. but the ramifications of a loss for either team is changing the perspective for this game. if not the importance. After all. it's difficult to do much trash talking when a team has lost five of seven (Ravens) or its last two (Steelers). Defensive back Corey Ivy signed with the Steelers on Tuesday to improve their sagging special teams, which have allowed four kickoff return touchdowns in five games. He also can provide some insight on . what the Ravens are thinking. even if it might seem obvious. "It's definitely circled on everybody's calendar when yo.u play Pittsburgh," Ivy sa1d.

(AP) - It's too soon for Jimmie Johnson to contemplate his place in NASCAR history. He'll save those conversations for a time long after the champagne has stopped flowing on his record fourth consecutive championship. But after charging his w.ay into the elite club of drivers with more than three titles Richard Petty, Dale Earnhardt. Jeff Gordon Johnson can't escape the debates over where he stands among the all-time greats. ''It's tough for me to real1y reflect on it when I'm still competing," he said. "Toward the end of my career, I'm sure I'll focus a lot more on it. But right now we're just kind of in a rhythm of things, and 1 hope to keep it going. ''There's no guarantees it will continue. But I'm just trying to keep the same mindset, same work ethic . same focus and just see how long we can keep this thing moving." Another long year over. and Johnson heads into another offseason still plotting how to keep his spot atop the Sprint Cup Series. But it's hardly a case of groundhog day. The 2009 season was unlike any year in recent memory. It will, of course. be . remembered for Johnson's historic march. And the late- season emergence of Brad Keselowski as NASCAR 's 4)ewest polarizing figure is certain! y fresh in everyone's mind. But NASCAR faced a lot of challenges between the February opener at Daytona and last weekend's conclusion at Homestead. Many remain unresolved. 'There's the ongoing saga of driver Jeremy Mayfield, who has refused to quietly go away after becoming the ftrst driver suspended under NASCAR's toughened drug policy. The drama consumed NASCAR all summer, and just when the controversy finally seemed to simmer, Mayfield hired high-profile lawyer Mark Geragos and ramped up his fight another notch. Now it "will drag on through the offseason, as Geragos attempts to introduce aspects of NASCAR chairman Brian France's personal life to the case. Just this week, NASCAR asked a federal court to prevent Geragos from collecting information and documents from France's ex-wife. NASCAR also is still feeling the pinch from the economic crisis. Teams still struggling to find sponsorship continue to fight for their survival, with mixed results.

Oh10 (AP) Frustration got the best of Browns coach Eric Mangini, who now regrets suggesting the Detroit Lions faked injuries. Cleveland dropped a 3837 heartbreaker 111 Detroit on Sunday. losing when the Lions scored a touchdown und kicked the (lume-winJ~ing extra point \\ ith no ttme on the clock. The TO \Vas set up by a pass interference call in the end zone against the Browns. On Monday. Mangini, who didn't agree with the interference call. also complained about the number of Lions player.s who had gotten hurt while the Browns were running their no-hl!ddle offense. He didn't flatly accuse Detroit's players of fakin¥ injuries. but Mangini questtoned \vhy so many of them went out with injuries only to return to the game. During his news conference Wednesday. Mangini said he wasn't trying to shy away from accountability. "At the end of the day we're accountable for los- ing the game and for not making enough plays." he said. 'That's me. that's the coaches. that's the pla~:crs. That's \\hat it was. I thtnk I was frustrated with the situation and probably expressed that more than l probably should have. but at the end of the day \\'e'rc responsible for it. "We had plenty of opportunities to win the game and we diun't. That wasn't good enouoh!' ~ Li;ns coach Jim Schwart/ took offense to Mangini's comments. saying "he's way out of bounds on that." and "that couldn't be further from the truth." Mangini said he spoke with Schwartz. whom he be(lan his NFL career work• 0 • • mg alongstde tn Cleveland under Bill Belichick during the 1990s. ~ "I talked to Jim for a while." he said. "We cleared the air. I like Jim. We've al~ays had a good relationship so we talked through that. The bottom line is we didn't do enough to win the game. Jim and I are fine." Bengals "From day one. I felt I was here for a reason:· Scott said. ''The more you're out there making plays. the more it helps your confidence." Scott wasn't used to carrying so many times in a game and got cramps in the fourth quarter in Oakland. He's going to work at keeping his body hydrated this week to be ready for Cleveland. "l haven't been playing and all of a sudden. I'm playing:· he said. "I hadn't played in a game since college. really. I think the more I play. the better my conqitioning will get. Hopefully I won't have those problems anymore.'' Lewis is confident that Scott will handle the next gan1e better. pointing out that rookies often struggle to get through their first game. "It kind of blows the pipel> out a little bit," Lewis said. "But once you get through it, you're good. That's kind of a one-time situation. and then you're generally good to go. That happens to a lot of guys to start the year." from Page Bl the mnning game has been a big pat1 of it. The Bengals have been using an extra offensive lineman in the tight end's spot to block. or put a tight end in the backfield as an extra blocker. Instead of looking to have Carson Palmet' throw the ball. the Bengals have been more dependent upon having him hand off. The Browns ( 1-9) have committed to stopping Chad Ochocinco and the rest of the Bengab ·receivers in the past. "This is one of the few weeks r m begging for us to run the ball." Ochocinco said Wednesday. "Once we get to the postseason - we will be there - the key is to run the ball. That's why I'm all for it right now." Scott has quickly become an important part of the offense. Thursd ay, November 26, www .m yda ilysentinel.com Page B2 • The Daily Sentinel division games last season.

Steelers Johnson from Page 81 Motorspons this time last year is now a shell of its former self. currently existing as Richard Petty Motorsports but with a third of its former employees. The name might be the same two months from now. but most everything else could look much different as RPM moves slowly toward a merger wtth Yates Racing . The agreement has led to a loss of jobs and .at least one race team as the NASCAR work force and number of competitiVt' entries in the field continues to dwindle. Attendance at tracks all over the circuit has been down this year. as have television ratings. Unlike previous years. NASCAR is taking a pro7active approach to its problems. NASCAR listened to its fan council when it implemented midseason doublefile restarts and worked with its television partners on establishing universal start times in 20 I 0. The sport leadership also held at least two unprecedented to\vn-hall meetings with competitors to ~discuss what's ailing the sport. Although there has yet to be any major tweaks to come out or those sessions. NASCAR is considering changes to the cutTent car. which many consider the catalyst for many of the current problems. Drivers complain the car is too difficult to drive. while fans insist it has dulled the action~AII the talk had seemingly fallen on deaf ears until recently. which if nothing else is a sign of NASCAR softening its stubbornness. There's still work to be done at Daytona and Talladef!a, which were marked~ by three violent last-lap accidents. NASCAR made a reactionary decision before last month's race at Talladega to ban bump-drafting. and the end result was a dulled version of what had typically been one of the most exciting races of the year. And. by the way. two cars still went airborne. The problems of 2009 weren't limited to the governing body. Most popular driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. had a horrendous season, and many can point to the decline in overall NASCAR interest to his fall. Fans love Earnhardt. and when he's not running well, many simply don't want to watch. In the most trying season of his career. he went winJess and finished 25th in the standings while his Hendrick Motorsports teammates went 1-2-3 as Johnson gave the organization its record 12th championship. Team owner Rick Hendrick this week vowed to make turning Earnhardt's team around his top priority and promised to get Earnhardt back on pace by next season. Kyle Busch is trying to do the same after a quick fall from the top that saw him miss the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. but he's been recently push~:d asitlc as the star of Joe Gibbs Racing by teammate Denny Hamlin. who found a strong voice this year and asserted himself as one to watch in 2010.

Lewis still despises losing Bv JENNA FRYER APWAITEA OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) - Ray Lewis hates losing, especially games decided in the waning minutes of the fourth quarter. The Baltimore Ravens have dropped four games in that fashion this season. and Lewis reached a boiling point last Sunday when the unbeaten Indianapolis Colts escaped with a 17-15 victory. Lewis. a 10-time Pro Bowl middle linebacker, made I0 tackles and forced a fumble despite playing with a sore right ankle. And still the Ravens lost. Afterward, Lewis brushed past reporters and left the locker room without saying a word. "It gets no harder for me than Sunday. rve always had a problem with losing. I pray about it a lot," Lewis said Wednesday. "I don't like losing freaking close games, I don't like losmg nothing. I like to finish games out 60 minutes when you've got a team like that on the ropes." Lewis has won a Super Bowl over his 14-year career, but he's also had to endure dozens of defeats. Nothing infuriates him more than working hard for an entire week, then playing with unyielding intensity before walking off the field on the short end of a close game. That's exactly what happened Sunday, and to make matters worse, the defeat was eerily similar to a 15-6 playoff loss against lndianap9lis two years earlier. "When you reflect back to 2006, kind of the same situation happened. We hold them to five field goals and lose and they go on to win the Super Bowl. I don't want to rehve that again." Lewis said. ''So Sunday, excuse me for not talking. That's defmitely not me. But for me, the way I play this game and the way I study and how we had them, that "game we're supposed to win. We dido 't win it. That didn't sit well with me." The 34-year-old Lewis leads the Ravens with 103 tackles. but Baltimore (5-5) is in danger of missing the playoffs because it has lost four games by a total of 13 points. Against the Colts, two fourthquarter turnovers sealed defeat. "It was a bitter taste in my mouth," Lewis said. ''Ray's always intense. It's rare that he's not intense." Ravens outside linebacker Jarret Johnson said. "Yeah, he took that loss hard, just like we all did. That's why he's been so good for so Jon~. He's always focused. he s always willing to come in the next week and get a little bit better. He's' been doing that for 14 years.'' Getting into the huddle with Lewis has been a oneof-a-kind experience for rookie linebacker Paul Kluger. "It's unlike any player I've ever played with. You know you're in good hands. You know who the boss is. you know who the captain is," Kruger said. "He s just a presence out there. You can feel it in the I02nd row in the stands, but being right next to him, it's a pretty special thing.'' . Lewis has never been one to mask his emotion, on the field or in the locker room. So his agony was evident after Sunday's game. "You could tell he was feelin~ it, big time," Kruger sa1d." After glancing back at the Indianapolis game one more time Wednesday, Lewis turned his full attention toward defeating the rival Pittsburgh Steelers at home Sunday night. "The way we play each other, it's always a physical ball game, it's always going to come down to one of the last plays," he said. "It's just the way it is." Lewis can only tfope that if it's close, the Ravens find a way to win. Chad Knaus believes he and Jimmie Johnson can continue to add to their championship total for years to come. But the crew chief first needs a new contract. Knaus on Wednesday denied an ESPN report that he's agreed to lead Johnson through 2015. the length of Johnson's new contract extension with Hendrick Motorsports. Knaus, who has guided Johnson to four straight titles and 47 victories since 2002, is still working under an extension signed in 2006 that runs through next season. ''We've only statted very light conversations," Knaus said. "I don't have a new contract, and we've barely had enough conversation for me to agree to anything." Quinn fromPageBl five by a total of21 points failed to beat rivals Michigan and USC and lost for the second time in three years to Navy, a school Notre Dame beat 43 straight times before 2007. Weis is just 35-26 in five seasons at the school, but has gone only 16-20 without Quinn, who led ND to the Fiesta and Sugar bowls. Quinn said it's tough to pinpoint why the Fighting Irish have slipped nationally. "I know as a player there, one of the things we prided ourselves on was winning games and not worrying about stats or individual accolades. but pulling through tight games and winning games and going in there and fighting every week," Quinn said. ''I think if you've got Although Knaus said it is his intention to stay with Hendrick Motorsports, "you never know what will happen. There are so many what-ifs." Knaus began his NASCAR career with Hendrick in I 993 as an origmember of Jeff inal Gordon's "Rainbow Warriors" crew. He began as an assistant in the body shop, worked his way into the fabrication department and eventually was put. in charge of the body development for Gordon's car. He was also a tire changer on Gordon's 1995 and 1997 teams. Knaus left Hendrick after the 1997 season to try to advance his career, working at Dale Earnhardt Inc. as the car chief for Steve Park, then for Ray Evernham when he left Hendrick to start his own race team. He then spent one season as crew chief for Stacy Compton at Melling Racing. Knaus returned to Hendrick in 2002 when car owner Rick Hendrick formed Johnson's new team. The duo charged out of the gates and has contended for the championship every year. Their record-setting string of four consecutive championships began in 2006. and there's no reason to believe they will let up anytime soon. Hendrick said Tuesday that he's working on an extension with Knaus. but "it's kind of a foregone conclusion between us that he's going to be here. "We've got to get the, paperwork done, but we still have a year and a half left." Hendrick said. "So it's something we're doing. We try to get all our guys in place well ahead of when the contracts are ~p. So that's under way. I plan for him to retire here. I think that's what he tells me he wants to do.'' joked after Knaus Sunday's title-clinching race that he's not sure what he'll do if he's not a crew chief, throwing out a possible stint on ''Dancing with the Stars" or opening a scuba shop i the Caribbean. "I don't know, man. don't know what I'm going to do when I grow up." he said. "I hope I never have to grow up. I love my job. But I can't be a crew chief forever. I'll be honest, I can't run at this pace for ten more years. It's impossible. But I love what I do. I engulf myself in what it is that I do. and there's nothing I'd rather do. "I have yet to get out of bed in the morning and not want to go to work, and that's a fact. In the future. we're just going to have to wait and see." times when the season is tough." Quinn's breakout performance against a horrible Detroit defense gave the Browns (1-9) and their fans some hope in an otherwise bleak season. Cleveland's offense has struggled under first-year coordinator Brian Daboll, who employed a nohuddle attack that had the Lions scrambling. The Browns scored four touchdowns - one less than their season total - in Detroit, and Quinn's passing yards were more than in Cleveland's three previous games combined. The trick is to do it again. "You don't want to be a one-hit wonder,'' coach Eric Mangini said. Quinn is trying to make the most of his second chance. He began the season as Cleveland's starter, got benched after 2 1/2 games and was reinstated after the team's bye week. Before his four-TD game in Detroit, Quinn. just 1-7 as a starter, completed just 13 of 31 passes for 99 yards in a loss against Balttmore. He threw three TO passes in the first quarter on Sunda>·· hookiDg up with rook. Mohamed Massaquoi for 59-yard score on the first play of Cleveland's second offensive series. The quickstrike play silenced a few of Quinn s critics, who don't believe he has the arm stren~th to stretch defenses. Qumn alsb effectively used a pump fake to keep the Lions guessing and the Browns. who visit Cincinnati this week, moving down the field better than they have all season. It was a major step for a unit that has looked mostly lost through 10 games. Still. it didn't end with a win. "I always think we're turning comers and making progress every week." Quinn said. "But obviously. we didn't put enough points on the board." ' enou~h talent on that team, there s guys that need to pull together and start finding ways to win.'' One of the arguments often given for Notre Dame's struggles is that the school's high academic standards make it difficult to recruit. Quinn sees it differently. "It plays to their advantage too that smart players on the team are able to do a lot more from a schematic standpoint and prepare for teams in better fashion than other teams," he said. Quinn had sympathy for Notre Dame quarterback Jimmy Clausen, who was punched in the eye outside a South Bend bar early Sunday morning, hours after the Fighting Irish lost in double overtime to Connecticut. "It's unfortunate anytime that sort of situation occurs." Quinn said. "You just hope everything is all right and there's nothing else from it.
