"He kind of made it personal.'·' _ Gordon , breg Biffle and Ryan Newman all tested tires for Akron, Ohio-based Goodyear ·Tire & Rubber -Co. at the newly paved Darlington Raceway on Monday, and all agreed the rubber at Atlanta wasn ' t favorable for driving conditions. But none was as angrv as Stewart, who said Goodyear gave him "the most pathetic racing tire I've ever been on in my profession-al career." . Goodyear officials partieipating in Monday 's test refused comment, and the garage was closed to media. Still.

(AP) - Cincinnati Reds manager Dusty Baker says he would rather not know how · high a player .was. drafted, what hts on-base-percentage is or how old -he is. · Jay · Bruce has 18 at bats in seven games since he missed four games with an . injury. His main competition for centerfield veteran Ryan Freel and Norris Hopper have 21 and 22, respectively, and haven't missed a game. Baker wants to see what Bruce can do. The manager has a repu~ tation of favoring older players over young players. One example used is Corey l"atterson, who was drafted high and given a "can't miss" labeL His original organization, the Chicago Cubs gave up on him. Patterson had no job until the Reds signed him to a minor league contract on March 3 along with former Cub, Jerry Hairston. "He (Patterson) . was where Jay Bruc.e is now," Baker said. "People were asking where is he? Where is he? He had some success, then when he failed, they wanted to run him out of town and get someone else in. Quite frankly I get tired of hearing young or old. I really do." . Baker recognizes the tal- . ent that Bruce has and thinks he will be a star for a long time. It has nothing to do with age. · "I like to give guys two or three chances. You throw. out the bad one, throw out the good one and you come up what you think. might be," Baker said. Another example is righthanded pitcher ·oaryl Thompson. He was a minor leaguer in the trade with the Washington Nationals that brought the Reds Gary Majewski and Bill Bray for Austin Kearns; Felipe Lopez and Ryan Wagner, former No. I draft picks. Thoinpson, Montreal's eighth-round pick in 2003, made his first appearance of the spring and struck out the side. "Tqompson was great. He looked like he· d been out there awhile . Especially a guy from A ball who hasn't pitched at all because of the number of pitchers in camp," s_aid Baker. Matt Belisle started the - l!ame. He pitched out of a Jam in the first inning but walked the first two batters . in the second inning. Baker went to the mound. "Like Dick (Pole) and Bake said just focus on that last inning. That's the way you want.to throw. Walking the first two in the second inning was just unaccept. able. Dusty told me basically to forget what happened before· and get after it," Thompson said. "I told him , hey man, throw it to the catcher. He was aiming a little bit. The · next inning was his best inning," Baker said. "He came at them hard .''

REED BREEDOMYOAILYSENTINEL.COM MIDDLEPORT - .A proposed $2.4 million sewer project in Middleport is ready for the final planning stage, but is not expected to be completed until 2014, an engineer said. The project involves a new system for treating and conveying material from the village's combined sanitary and stoim sewers to the outfalls in the Ohio River. The project is a more-affordable altemati ve to separating the two systems, according to Michael Froernmer of the engineering fum URS. · F[oequner met with Middleport Village Council Monday evening to secure a resolution approving a longterm control plan for submission to the Ohio Environmental Protection · Agency. Froemmer said the Ohio EPA h!ls approved preliminary plans for the pro. ject, with some scheduling adjustments. The resolution will allow the renewal of the village's permit to discharge into the river. Survey work and work at the actual outfalls to measure the amount of rain water discharged will follow, Froernmer said. That work iS expected to be completed in early fall, and the project will then go 'into a final design phase. Froernmer said the cost of the project will decrease if the water flow from the outfalls is less than expected. Froemmer said the pro- ject is contigent upon the availability of funding. URS will work with the village to seek grants and loan funds for the project, he said. · Other business During open discussion, Council discussed an increase in enforcement · efforts against properties in need of cleanup.

MIDDLEPORT Demolition was expected to begin early Wednesday on a condemned and unsafe building in Middleport's central business district. The village will accomplish -something it has been unable or unwilling to do . since the building was first condemned. Mayor Michael Gerlach said Monday plans were to tear down a building owned by Alan Ervin of Pomeroy, located on North Second Avenue between Race and Mill Streets. The work is to be CO~ll()leted by Jeffers Excavatmg of · Pomeroy and was to begin at 8 a.m. today. Ger\ach said village council has consulted with Solicitor Jennifer Sheets to ensure that notification requirements had been met before executing a contract with the demolition comeany. . The building has been a worry for the village since it was first condemned. Two years ago, after he bought the condemned building from local real estate agent Jack Carsey, Ervin said he planned to restore the building, and provided a letter from an Athens architect claiming the building could be salvaged. The village's design review board extended a demolition order allowing Ervin to demonstrate financial ability to co~lete the worlc, but Ervin fatled to do so.

Convenient Appointments Available Dear Annie: My doctor recently .told me I need to get rid of the stress in my life or I'm likely to have a stroke. My blood· pressure is through the roof. At the age of 59, I've decided getting rid of stress means I need a divorce, but I don't want to hurt my husband of25 years. My husband does not have a clue. If I tell him, he will either become irate or not believe me . He and his family members are all bipolar. They get along with each \)ther, but as hard as I have tried all these years, they will not let me in. They live out of state, and when I call hi~ mother, every time I ask, "How are you?" she replies, "Why do you want to know~" My husband· makes sure I send them all Christmas and birthday cards, but they never reciprocate . His mother calls only when she needs money, and she will accept only money from us . All other presents are returned. Maybe il's my .age, but I just don't want to try anymore. If my husband had stood up for me even once when hi s mother was hurtful, it would be different, but he is and always will be afraid of her. The medicine my husband used to take did wonders for him, but he doesn't care enough about my health to get back on it. I know I' II feel better if I get out of this family, and I have to leave before it's too late to enjoy any kind of life. I just dread getting started. What should I do?- Florida Dear Florida: Living with someone who is bipolar can be di Hi cull and exhausting, especially if he refuses to seek treatment. You can find support and suggestions through the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance (dbsalliance.org) at 1-800-826-3632 or the Family-to-Family classes at the National Alliance on Mental Illness (nami.org) at 1-800-950-NAMI (1·800-950-6264). If you still can't find a way to make the situation less stressful, please talk to a counselor who will help you choose the right words to tell your husband. In the meantime, exercise can help with both the stress and the high blood pressure. Dear Annie: One of my co-workers talks incessantly. As if that weren't enough. she brought a radio to work and when she isn't talking, she's singing. · · Radios are pennitted in our office. The surervisors don 't do anything about the constant chatter, so it s no use complaining to them about the music. We were doing our best to cope with the talking, but the singing is sending us right over the edge. How can we get her to stop?- Waterbury, Conn. .Dear Waterbury: Have you asked her" Some people don't realize how irritating their little habits can be. It also sounds as if your co-worker may possibly have Asperger 's. obsessive-compulsive .disorder,ADHD or something simi - · tar that prevents her from keeping still. Perhaps if you make her aware that the constant singing is inappropriate, she will try to keep it to a minimum. If not, bring your own radio or desk fan, or plug yourself into a set of headphones. Dear Annie: I read the letter from "Knowing We Did the Right Thing," who donated her daughter's organs but heard nothing from the recipients. My sister was an organ donor. I wrote to all the recipients soon after the transplant. Over a year later, I got an answer back from the heart recipient, as well as the lung recipient. I am now in contact with the heart recipient via e-mail. ·However, I only heard once from the I ung recipient and never heard anything at all from two other recipients. I agree it can make people ·Uncomfortable to know they are here because someone else isn't. In your heart, you know you did something wonderful and you just keep that going. I have a dear friend who received a kidney, and I will ask her if she .sent a letter. I am quite confident the recipients are thankful every day, but don't know how to handle it.- J.B. · Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Convenient Appointments Available Dear Annie: My doctor recently .told me I need to get rid of the stress in my life or I'm likely to have a stroke. My blood· pressure is through the roof. At the age of 59, I've decided getting rid of stress means I need a divorce, but I don't want to hurt my husband of25 years. My husband does not have a clue. If I tell him, he will either become irate or not believe me . He and his family members are all bipolar. They get along with each \)ther, but as hard as I have tried all these years, they will not let me in. They live out of state, and when I call hi~ mother, every time I ask, "How are you?" she replies, "Why do you want to know~" My husband· makes sure I send them all Christmas and birthday cards, but they never reciprocate . His mother calls only when she needs money, and she will accept only money from us . All other presents are returned. Maybe il's my .age, but I just don't want to try anymore. If my husband had stood up for me even once when hi s mother was hurtful, it would be different, but he is and always will be afraid of her. The medicine my husband used to take did wonders for him, but he doesn't care enough about my health to get back on it. I know I' II feel better if I get out of this family, and I have to leave before it's too late to enjoy any kind of life. I just dread getting started. What should I do?- Florida Dear Florida: Living with someone who is bipolar can be di Hi cull and exhausting, especially if he refuses to seek treatment. You can find support and suggestions through the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance (dbsalliance.org) at 1-800-826-3632 or the Family-to-Family classes at the National Alliance on Mental Illness (nami.org) at 1-800-950-NAMI (1·800-950-6264). If you still can't find a way to make the situation less stressful, please talk to a counselor who will help you choose the right words to tell your husband. In the meantime, exercise can help with both the stress and the high blood pressure. Dear Annie: One of my co-workers talks incessantly. As if that weren't enough. she brought a radio to work and when she isn't talking, she's singing. · · Radios are pennitted in our office. The surervisors don 't do anything about the constant chatter, so it s no use complaining to them about the music. We were doing our best to cope with the talking, but the singing is sending us right over the edge. How can we get her to stop?- Waterbury, Conn. .Dear Waterbury: Have you asked her" Some people don't realize how irritating their little habits can be. It also sounds as if your co-worker may possibly have Asperger 's. obsessive-compulsive .disorder,ADHD or something simi - · tar that prevents her from keeping still. Perhaps if you make her aware that the constant singing is inappropriate, she will try to keep it to a minimum. If not, bring your own radio or desk fan, or plug yourself into a set of headphones. Dear Annie: I read the letter from "Knowing We Did the Right Thing," who donated her daughter's organs but heard nothing from the recipients. My sister was an organ donor. I wrote to all the recipients soon after the transplant. Over a year later, I got an answer back from the heart recipient, as well as the lung recipient. I am now in contact with the heart recipient via e-mail. ·However, I only heard once from the I ung recipient and never heard anything at all from two other recipients. I agree it can make people ·Uncomfortable to know they are here because someone else isn't. In your heart, you know you did something wonderful and you just keep that going. I have a dear friend who received a kidney, and I will ask her if she .sent a letter. I am quite confident the recipients are thankful every day, but don't know how to handle it.- J.B. · Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

A split between the institutions could leave students in the RGCC district of .

A split between the institutions could leave students in the RGCC district of . Gallia, Meigs, Jackson and Vinton counties without access to higher education within proximity of those counties, a problem Fingerhut and his staff recognized in tackling the issues surrounding the relationship between the university and the community college as well as their value to the community. "The community college board purchases educational services from the university, which is not unusual in itself, but what is unusual is that Rio Grande is in a rural area and there are not a lot of options available," .

Chief among the disputes were a university proposal to reclassify some community college students as university students, with . their tuition going from the RGCC rate of $3,400 a year to the university's $16,600 per year. After . failing to meet a Feb. 15 deadline set by Fingerhut to reach an agreement; and further m.ediation unsuccessful, Fingerhut summoned both boards to hammer out an agreement.

CLASSIFIED Galli a County OH BY JENNA fRYER BEREA - Randy Lerner wolfed down the last bites of lunch in th~ Browns' cafeteria, where the owner shared a t<~ble with fomter quarterback Bernie Kosar. before heading up to his office overlooking practice fields now buried in snow. It's a relatively quiet. time in the NFL . those weeks between the frenetic tlrst days of free age ncy and Aprirs college draft. In a wide-ranging interview with The Ass.ociated Press on Tuesday. the ,everenergized Lerner spent nearly an hour candidly discussing the Browns' dramatic 2007 turnaround. an impending contract extension for general manager Phil Savage, coach Romeo Crennel's calming influence and the resurgence· of Aston .. Villa. the English soccer team he bought in 2006. Only once did Lerner duck a question. Asked to handicap the Derek Anderson vs. Brady Quinn quarterback derby, a daily topic of conversation among Cleveland fans, Lerner was noncommittal. ''I'm not a coach and I don't have any of the required skills to give an informed opinion," he said with a laugh. "Like any fan, I've got a lot to say. but I wouldn't stick my two cents into . that one - for any price." Lerner's tastefully decorated office is filled with personal .and professional effects. Photographs of his children and late . father, AI, are ' sprinkled among acquired art work reflecting one of his most passionate hobbies. A coffee table filled with orange Browns helmets dating to Cleveland's foot-· ball infancy provide the visitor with a hard plastic trip down memory lane. After sitting down, Lerner perched his feet on the table's edge. inches away from an updated white· model similar to the one the Browns wore in 1948. and could break out for a future special occasion. Seconds later. Lerner excitedly talked about the 2008 Browns. Coming off a 10-win -season, they struck quickly in free agency by resigning Anderson and running back Jamal Lewis, and adding defensive linemen Shaun Rogers and Corey Williams as well as wide· receiver Donte Stallworth. They were brought to Cleveland by Savage, who in just. three years has completely rebuilt the Browns from laughingstocks to legitimate Super Bowl contenders. Lerner will reward Savage with a long-term contract extension, which has been in the works for several weeks. Talks have gone so well that Lerner and Savage decided MLB from Page 81 24 if he's not ready. And I think if you look at it with common sense, he's not going to pitch over there." No decision has been made on wh€ther Beckett will go to Japan, Red Sox spokesman John Blake said. New Dodgers mana,ger Joe Torre began his trip to Beijing, taking along a Los Angeles split squad for two exhibition games against San Diego this weekend. He left Tuesday for Orlando, . where 11e and a roster of 27 players will fly out on Wednesday. Torre was replaced by Hall of Farner Jommy Lasorda, who .returned to the dugout for the first time in I2 years - and didn' t stay there long . The 80year-old stormed onto the field in the second inning against Flori9a to argue , with an umpire when James Loney was tagged out running to first base on a bunt. Lasorda thought the ball was foul. The play ended the inning. and Lasorda was.

Lasorda, who retired from managing in 1996 after 21 years, is temporarily taking over the Dodgers this week while Torre is gone. His frrst game back was a 7-6 loss to the Marlins in Vero Beach, Fla., but other than that it seemed just like the old days. Though Lasorda was disappointed with the result, he enJoyed being back at the helm. "It's been a long time for me: I am so happy and grateful they allowed me to do it.

CLASSIFIED Galli a County OH BY JENNA fRYER BEREA - Randy Lerner wolfed down the last bites of lunch in th~ Browns' cafeteria, where the owner shared a t<~ble with fomter quarterback Bernie Kosar. before heading up to his office overlooking practice fields now buried in snow. It's a relatively quiet. time in the NFL . those weeks between the frenetic tlrst days of free age ncy and Aprirs college draft. In a wide-ranging interview with The Ass.ociated Press on Tuesday. the ,everenergized Lerner spent nearly an hour candidly discussing the Browns' dramatic 2007 turnaround. an impending contract extension for general manager Phil Savage, coach Romeo Crennel's calming influence and the resurgence· of Aston .. Villa. the English soccer team he bought in 2006. Only once did Lerner duck a question. Asked to handicap the Derek Anderson vs. Brady Quinn quarterback derby, a daily topic of conversation among Cleveland fans, Lerner was noncommittal. ''I'm not a coach and I don't have any of the required skills to give an informed opinion," he said with a laugh. "Like any fan, I've got a lot to say. but I wouldn't stick my two cents into . that one - for any price." Lerner's tastefully decorated office is filled with personal .and professional effects. Photographs of his children and late . father, AI, are ' sprinkled among acquired art work reflecting one of his most passionate hobbies. A coffee table filled with orange Browns helmets dating to Cleveland's foot-· ball infancy provide the visitor with a hard plastic trip down memory lane. After sitting down, Lerner perched his feet on the table's edge. inches away from an updated white· model similar to the one the Browns wore in 1948. and could break out for a future special occasion. Seconds later. Lerner excitedly talked about the 2008 Browns. Coming off a 10-win -season, they struck quickly in free agency by resigning Anderson and running back Jamal Lewis, and adding defensive linemen Shaun Rogers and Corey Williams as well as wide· receiver Donte Stallworth. They were brought to Cleveland by Savage, who in just. three years has completely rebuilt the Browns from laughingstocks to legitimate Super Bowl contenders. Lerner will reward Savage with a long-term contract extension, which has been in the works for several weeks. Talks have gone so well that Lerner and Savage decided MLB from Page 81 24 if he's not ready. And I think if you look at it with common sense, he's not going to pitch over there." No decision has been made on wh€ther Beckett will go to Japan, Red Sox spokesman John Blake said. New Dodgers mana,ger Joe Torre began his trip to Beijing, taking along a Los Angeles split squad for two exhibition games against San Diego this weekend. He left Tuesday for Orlando, . where 11e and a roster of 27 players will fly out on Wednesday. Torre was replaced by Hall of Farner Jommy Lasorda, who .returned to the dugout for the first time in I2 years - and didn' t stay there long . The 80year-old stormed onto the field in the second inning against Flori9a to argue , with an umpire when James Loney was tagged out running to first base on a bunt. Lasorda thought the ball was foul. The play ended the inning. and Lasorda was.

Lasorda, who retired from managing in 1996 after 21 years, is temporarily taking over the Dodgers this week while Torre is gone. His frrst game back was a 7-6 loss to the Marlins in Vero Beach, Fla., but other than that it seemed just like the old days. Though Lasorda was disappointed with the result, he enJoyed being back at the helm. "It's been a long time for me: I am so happy and grateful they allowed me to do it.

The Seattle Mariners' hitting star went 0-for-4 during a 41 loss to Colorado ln Tucson. Ariz .. dropping to 0-for-21 in exhibition games this year. He has the most at-bats without a hit for any player in the majors, and the slump is three short of his longest regular-season hitless streak, in 2005.

Santana talked about missing his former team but. also being excited about the future. He met with former manager Ron Gardenhire for about 45 minutes. "It's good to be back and say hello," Santana said. "I thought I'd spend my career here and with nobody else. That didn't happen. I(s a business, and that's what they had. to do. It's sad, but I had to move on. I wish them all the best, and hopefully it works out for everybody."

You must make the correct play and get lucky. Withoul peeking over the cashier's shoulder at the East-West assets, how would you play in lour spades? West leads the club king. East wins with his bare ace and shifts to a heart. West · takes his ace, cashes _the club queen, · and plays a 1hird club. Over to you. This deal is based on one doseribed by Ron Klinger In his book "Guide 10 Better Bridge." North had a te~!>OO'< .1akeout double over Wesl's pre-emptive opening bid. Then South was right to jump to four spades. He knew of at least an eight· card spade 1~. so added two points for his singleton. Remember that a bid of lhree spades would have promised zero points. You need the rest of the tricks. If West has the spade qlJeen, you must rufl with dummy's jack. Was1, though, has already produced 1 higl>card points. II he had the spade queen as well, he would have opened one club. not three. So, you must ruff with dummy's spade ~ng, or Eas1 wll score his queen. But what next? Lead 111& spade jack, hoPing 10 Rin tne singleton 10 in the West hand. W Eas1 does not 'mver with his queen, run the jack, play a spada to your nine, eash the spade ace; and claim. II East covers, win, lead a !Iamond to d<.mmy's jack, and play a spada through Eas1's eight· three to your nine-seven. CELEBRITY CIPHER by Luis Campos . · , SyeciaT .Someone? ' -'lllrlhdlt': The year ahead could bring many new friendships and relallonships into your life, but ona in particular could be quite intense. Such a relationship Is chen thought to be fated, bUt that Isn't atways the case. Keep your emotions In check. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -There are times when making a snap decision works out we ll, but thiS is not likely to be one ol those days. Don't do any1hing fOolish on whim because it could be more costly than you ever anticipated. ARIES (March 21-April t9)- Be careful what you say about another - your words could quickly turn on you. If you don't have anything complimentary to voice, say nothing. Acidic comments won't be readily forgiven. · . TAURUS (April 20·May 20) - II yoUr mind Is not focused on your financia l situation, you could thoughtlessly spend foolishly on things you truly don't need. . What's worse, though, Is that It could leave you with an empty wallet GEMINI (May 21-June 20)- ll's noltoo smart to idnore what others have to say, especially other member& of your family. Even the youngest among them might know something the rest don't. Hear everyo11e out. CANCER (June 21-..luly 22)-:- You might feel a greater need to belong at this time, and II you believ8 this Is not being fulfilled, you could needlessly put youlllelf in a funk . Try to understarid your emotions instead of merely rttactlng to them. LEO <J"IY 23·Aug. 22) - A weH·int•n· 'tioned friend could offer some advice at this lime · thl::lt could bft countarproduc· five, especially il it s1irs up some nega· five emotion. Take What this person has to say with a grain of saft. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sepl. 22) - How you handle your business affairs can be extremely important at this time. If you 1eact prematurely to a situation thlilt arises, 11 could Set you back to square one instead of ma~ing progress. LIEIRA (Sept. 23-0ct. 23) - Let go of matters that are disturbing you, and you'll more readily be able to reaCh the answers and solutions you're seeking. Under relaxed conditions, the truth can en'terge. Under stress, things could explode. · · SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - Mixing business and pleasure might sound like a good Idea, but you may not want to eomblne II with a game of golf or tennis. Wfioever loses might take It ptr.onally and respond with a huff and a putt. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-0ec. 21)-You shouldn't have any problein achieving the alllatance of those you'Ye t)elped In the past. Just don't attempt to uk a favor from someone you've previously ~J•ct· ad, even If you have a good reuon. CAPRICORN '(DeC. 22·Jan. 19) -You'M have no trouble treating everyone vou encounter with cpnalderatlon and respect, but should an une~pected lnol· dent occur, your reactions could be ugly and negate an the goodwill you had ·gained.

You must make the correct play and get lucky. Withoul peeking over the cashier's shoulder at the East-West assets, how would you play in lour spades? West leads the club king. East wins with his bare ace and shifts to a heart. West · takes his ace, cashes _the club queen, · and plays a 1hird club. Over to you. This deal is based on one doseribed by Ron Klinger In his book "Guide 10 Better Bridge." North had a te~!>OO'< .1akeout double over Wesl's pre-emptive opening bid. Then South was right to jump to four spades. He knew of at least an eight· card spade 1~. so added two points for his singleton. Remember that a bid of lhree spades would have promised zero points. You need the rest of the tricks. If West has the spade qlJeen, you must rufl with dummy's jack. Was1, though, has already produced 1 higl>card points. II he had the spade queen as well, he would have opened one club. not three. So, you must ruff with dummy's spade ~ng, or Eas1 wll score his queen. But what next? Lead 111& spade jack, hoPing 10 Rin tne singleton 10 in the West hand. W Eas1 does not 'mver with his queen, run the jack, play a spada to your nine, eash the spade ace; and claim. II East covers, win, lead a !Iamond to d<.mmy's jack, and play a spada through Eas1's eight· three to your nine-seven. CELEBRITY CIPHER by Luis Campos . · , SyeciaT .Someone? ' -'lllrlhdlt': The year ahead could bring many new friendships and relallonships into your life, but ona in particular could be quite intense. Such a relationship Is chen thought to be fated, bUt that Isn't atways the case. Keep your emotions In check. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -There are times when making a snap decision works out we ll, but thiS is not likely to be one ol those days. Don't do any1hing fOolish on whim because it could be more costly than you ever anticipated. ARIES (March 21-April t9)- Be careful what you say about another - your words could quickly turn on you. If you don't have anything complimentary to voice, say nothing. Acidic comments won't be readily forgiven. · . TAURUS (April 20·May 20) - II yoUr mind Is not focused on your financia l situation, you could thoughtlessly spend foolishly on things you truly don't need. . What's worse, though, Is that It could leave you with an empty wallet GEMINI (May 21-June 20)- ll's noltoo smart to idnore what others have to say, especially other member& of your family. Even the youngest among them might know something the rest don't. Hear everyo11e out. CANCER (June 21-..luly 22)-:- You might feel a greater need to belong at this time, and II you believ8 this Is not being fulfilled, you could needlessly put youlllelf in a funk . Try to understarid your emotions instead of merely rttactlng to them.

Wednesday, March 12, 2oo8 www.mydailysentinel.com Woman drops restraining order against Patriots' Randy Moss :j :! ·I 'I MlAMl (AP) -A woman who obtained a restrnining order earlier this year in a domestic violence case against New England Patriots star Rand)' Moss wants the case dis011ssed, court records show. . RacheUe Washington, 35, filed papers March 3 with the Broward County Circuit Court clerk's office request· ing that the order be dissolved and the case closed.. The ·restraining order had required the All-Pro wide receiver to stay at least 500 feet from Washington. . Moss, 31, denied he harmed Washington as she claimed at her Aorida home on Jan. 6, or that he prevent· ed her from seeking medical attention. Moss did acknowledge there was an "accident" involving Washington, but would not be more specific. Moss attorney Richard Sharpstein said TUesday his client was "extremely pleased" by the outcome. Moss plans to submit a claim to his msurance company for medical bilrs for services such . as X-rays that Washington had for a hand injury, Sharpstein added. · · "There has finally been acknowledgment that the injuries were not intentionally inflicted," Sharpstein said. An . attorney for Washington said "no such acknowledgment exists." Washington had been acting "solely on the advice of her fonner attorney" when s!le filed temporary restrainin~ orders, Darrell Thompson saJd in a statement. "She has decided that such restraining order is unnecessary," · Thompson said. "Because the mjuries sus. tained were not the result of any malicious intent by Mr. Moss; a claim for her damages will be submitted to his insurance company." The restrainmg order was issued Jan. 14 after Washington accused Moss of "battery causing serious .injury" in a civil domestic violence case. It came just as the Patriots were making their flayoff run to the Super Bow and angling for an undefeated season, which ended in a loss to the New York Giants.
