White could be game~time. decision for No. 13 w~va. BY JOHN 'RABY AP SPORTS WRITER CHARLESTON , W.Va. - The last thing Rich . Rodrig•Jez wants to do is tip off Syracuse to what he s going to do about playing quarterback Pat White. White is undergoing daily treatments for a thigh bruise and his status for Np. 13 West Virginia (4-1, 0-1 Big East) on Saturday against the Orange (1-4, t·-0) remains uncertain. White was hit by a helmet Friday night at the end of an ·IS-yard ruq late in the second quarter of a 21-13 loss at South Florida. He limped off the field and did not .return, although he mar~hed 'the sideline trying to keep .his teammates' spirits up. ' Rodriguez inQicated Tuesday that White, who is taking part in practices, could be a game'time decision. "If it's (at) noon on Saturday, I' II decide at noon on Saturday," Rodriguez said. "If I decide earlier than that, he won't know until noon on Saturday. And nobody else will , either:" If White can't play, backup Jarrett Brown would get his second career start .and Adam Bednarik, who went 5' I as a starter in 2005 but missed last season following shoulder surgery, would back up Brown. . · When White sat out the 2006 regular-season finale with a sore ankle. Brown led the Mountaineers to a tripleovertime win over Rutgers in his first start. Against South Florida, Brown led West Virginia to its only touchdown but he was intercepted twice. He completed 11-of-20 passes for 149 yards. "Jarrett competed pretty well. We played very poorly. had six turnovers, still had 400-some yards of offense and still had a chance to win," Rodriguez said. "And the Big East player of the year wasn't in the game in the second half." With its national championship hopes nearly squashed for a second straight season with a mistake-filled performance · on the road, West Virginia must set its sights on trying to win a wide-open Big East race in which it already .has lost ground. . Rodriguez was quick to come to his players' aid in dealing with a defeat, his fourth since the start of the 2005 season. .He defended cente~ Mike· Dent, whose awkward snap in shotgun formation led to a botched handoff against South Florida, while another snap went over Brown's head. "There wasn't anybody on offense who played championship-caliber football in that game," ·Rodriguez said. I ain't going to jump off ship, and I ain't going to jump off my players' ship, either. I'm not going to discard them. I'd rather have my guys than anybody right now.

In 10-plus seasons under Tiller, Purdue is 80-49 and made nine bowl appearances, the high point coming in 2000 .when Drew Br~ es led the team to its first Rose Bowl since 1967. Still, some Boilermakers fans want more and have grown frustrated by Purdue's inability to reach the elite status of other Big Ten teams such as Michigan, Ohio State and Wisconsin. "We've changed the culture surrounding the football program," Tiller told The Associated Press before the start of his 11th season at the school. "I think that we certainly have changed the expectation level, and I don't know if. that's good or , ba. d." Maybe this is the year Purdue (5-0) returns to the Rose Bowl? Michigan has struggled.

Martin's company, CIA LLC, was the sole bidder on the project at $45,000 for a concrete park as opposed to a prefabncated park. The bid was first reviewed by council and the village solicitor before the project moved forward into an official contract with major dirt work being done this week. Work crews were hoping to · get started on placing special French drains at the piuk this week to help accommodate the park's lpcation in the flood plain.

BY ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER • A • SEOUL, South Korea North Korea pledged to detail its nuclear programs and disable all activities at its main reactor complex by year's end, then signed a wide-ranging reconciliation pact with South Korea Thursday promising to work for peace on the divid ed peninsula. North and South Korea pledged to seek-a permanent peace agreement replacing the 54-year-old cease ~ fire that ended the Korean War. The pledge came a day after the North made its firmest commitment yet to nuclear · disarmament. North Korean leader Kim Jong ll and South Korean President Roh Moo-hyun also promised to boost economic ties -opening regular cargo railway service along restored tracks crossing their heavily armed border and creating a joint fish ing zone on their disputed sea frontier. The two leaders signed the wide-ranging agreement promising cooperation for peace after three days of summit meetings in Pyongyang, the second such meeting between the countries. Under a separate multina" lion agreement reached in February, Pyongyang was required to shut down and seal its sole operating reac tor at its main nuclear complex, which it did in July after the U.S. reversed ,its hard-line policy against the regime. The second phase required it to disable the reactor and provide a full descr:iption of all its nuclear program s. Wednesday's agreement at talks in Chma called for that to happen by the end of the year. · The North said it would allow the U.S. to lead a group of ex.perts to Pyongyang within two weeks "to prepare for disablement" of its nuclear facilities, Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Wu Dawei said in Beijing. The U.S. wants the dismantling process to be so thorough that a nuclear facility could not be made operational 'for at least 12 months. President Bush hailed the nuclear deal and said it reflected the "common commitment" of the talks to · shut down North Korea's atomic weapons program. But the - United States was secretive about what it promised in return. · The U.S. has agreed to lead disablement activities and provide the initial fund ing for them. Washington also reiterated its willingness to remove North Korea from a list of countries that sponsor terrorism, a key demand of Pyongyang. No timetable was set for thi s action, but a joint statement said it will happen "in parallel with" the North Korean government following through on its commitment. "The two sides will increase bilateral exchanges and enhance mutual trust," the statement says. · Besides the U.S. and China, three other countries - Russia, South Korea and Japan..,_ participated in the . talks with the North. The five countries reiterated a commitment t.o deliver aid under the February disarmament deal granting the North the equivalent of I million tons of fuel oil. On Friday, in anticipation of the new agreement, the United States also announced it would spend up to $25 million to pay for 50,000 tons of heavy fuel oil for North Korea. This is not the first nuclear disputed sea frontier. ·. And they will open an air deal Washington has struck with the. reclusive, commu- corridor between Seoul and nist regime.

I love being with " Duke ," but when he's back in his hometown, my mind goes crazy. I think about the worst possible situation and worry myself sick. I have this trust issue, and it drives me nuts. My suspicions started when I found out Duke had a MySpace page but never told me about it. He shares a lot with me, so that seemed strange. He finally let me see it, and I realized he has pictures of himself with his ex still posted there, and he states that hi s status rs "single." I understand that he and his ex are still friends, and that doesn't bother me, but he told me once that he 'd like to forget about her. So why does he keep the pictures up? He also has told me that his ex calls him every so often. I don't want him to think he has to hide stuff from me. Am I just over-thinking the whole situation? Should r: worry? -. Stressed and ,frustrated · Dear Stressed: If your instincts are telling you that Duke is hiding things, he probably is. It 's possible Duke hadn't updated his MySpace page and knew you'd be upset to see the pictures of the ex, so he postponed showing them to you. Has he since removed them and changed his status? If not, he is giving you information about his level of commitment - and you may indeed have something to worry about. Dear Annie: My wife and I are both in our 80s . and have been married for 60 years .

TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Thursday, Oct. 4, the 277th day of 2007. There are 88 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: Fifty years ago, on Oct. 4, 1957, the Space Age began as the Soviet Union launched Sputnik I, the first 'artificial satellite, into orbit. On this date: In 1777, George Washington's troops launched an assault on the British at ·Germantown, Pa., resulting in heavy American casualties. . In 1822, the 19th president of the United States, Rutherford B. Hayes, was born in Delaware, Ohio.. In 1940, Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini conferred at Brenner Pass in the Alps, where the Nazi leader sought Italy's help in fighting. the British. In 1957, Jimmy Hoff11 was elected president of the Teamsters Union. In 1957, the situation comedy "Leave It to Beaver'' pre· miered on CBS-TV. In 1965, Pope Paul VI became the frrst pope to visit the Western Hemisphere as he addressed the U.N. General Assembly. In 1970, rock singer Janis Joplin, 27, was found dead in her Hollywood hotel room. In 1976, Agriculture Secretary Earl Butz resigned in the wake of a controversy over a joke he'd made about blacks. In 1978, a funeral mass was held at the Vatican for Pope John Paull. In 1980, some 520 people were forced to abandon the cruise ship Prinsendarn in the Gulf of Alaska after the Dutch luxury liner caught flre; no deaths or serious injury resulted. ' Ten years ago: Hundreds of thousands of men attended a Promise Keepers rally on the mall in Washington, D.C. Five years ago: John Walker Lindh, the so-called "American Taliban," received a 20-year sentence after a ' sobbing, halting plea for forgiveness before a federal judge in Alexandria, Va. In a federal court in Boston, Richard Reid pleaded guilty with a laugh to trying to blow up a trans-Atlantic flight with explosives hidden in his shoes as he declared his hatred for America and his loyalty to Osarna bin Laden. One year ago: Ousted Hewlett-Packard Chairwoman Patricia Dunn, a company officer and three investigators were charged with violating California privacy laws in a corporate spying scandal. (The charges were later dropped, with a judge calling their conduct a "betrayal of trust and honor'' that nonetheless did not rise to the level of criminal activity.) American Roger D. Kornberg won the Nobel Prize in chemistry. New York Times correspondent R.W. · Apple Jr. died in Washington at age 71. Thought for Today: "Trying to determine what is going on in the world by reading newspapers is like trying to tell the time by watching the second hand of a clock." - Ben Hecht, American screenwriter (1894-1964).

A durable power of attorney is generally more useful than a living will, but only if you have someone you trust to . make these decisions for you. Make sure they know you've g1ven them this responsibility. A Do-Not-Resuscitate order allows a person to refuse, in advance, any effort to resuscitate in the event of a cardiac or respiratory arrest. Without such an order, health care providers are obligated to take all measures possible to save you. "People think advance directives are only for those who are seriously or termi- . nally ill," said Riley. "However, even if you are in good health, an accident or serious illness can happen suddenly.

The witch candy bucket was purchased from Family Dollar and the skull candy bucket and. Fmnkenstein cup were purchased at Dollar Store. A complaint regarding the products was submitted on Friday to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Brown said he hopes the CPSC will respond to Weidenhamer's complaint.

W.Va . - The time to make a move is now and Point Pleasant is ready to strike. After lo.,ing a heartbreaker two ll'eeks ago to Winfield, the Big Blacks responded last week with a tough home stand against the defending Class AA state champions and Cardinal Conference leading Wayne in a battle that saw PPHS hold a narrow lead through most of the game. Although Wayne did manage to turn a-few PPHS mistakes into points and an eventual victory. the Big Blacks did show that they are not going to lie down to anyo ne. Point Pleasant (1-4. ·0-3 Cardinal) flexed its defensive muscle in .the contest. holding the h~gh powered Pioneer attack to just three touchdowns while outgaining Wayne in total yardage, but simply couldn't punch it into the endzone. . And even though Point Pleasant's offensive woes continued, with the team averaging just 7.8 points per game and a high of 16 points coming against Meigs in a week three victory, its defense continues .to be among the best on the conference and that squad will be tested once . again when the Big Blacks travel to face Poca (3-3. 2-1 Cardinal) Friday night. The Big Blacks come into the contest with just one win, a week three victory over Meigs (16-14), and has suffered four losses to Sissonville (40-7). Gallia Academy (28-0), Winfield (17-13) and Wayne (22-3). Poca h.as traded wins and loses each week and the Big Blacks hope that trend continues as the Dots come into Friday's game riding a 28-0 victory over winle~s Herbert Hoover. The team also has wins over Chapmanville (28-14) and Ravenswood (35-28) and has suffered losses to Nitro (48-33), Logan (28-12) and Buffalo (32-21 ). . Several injuries have plagued the Dots in their losses including their surprising setback to Buffalo 1wo weeks ago. Poca comes into Friday's contest second in the conference in points at 26 per game just behind Wayne and looks to try to keep that offensive firepower going against Point Pleasant. B~t it won't be easy. Aside from a week one blowout, Point Pleasant has limited its last four opponents to 81 points and Iittle yardage and PPHS hopes to oo the same this week against Poca . . However the Dots are no pushover on defense either. Poca has given up almost as many points as it has scored, but had a standout performance last week against Herbert Hoover, holding the Huskies to I05 total yards and 66 yards on the ground in the shutout. Conversely the Dots ravished the Husky defense, rushing for 233 yards on 43 carries led by senjor running back Derek McClure who churned out 130. yar.ds and a pair of touchdowns. _He and runninll back Caleb Arthur, who IS averaging nearly I 0 yards per carry this season, have· led the Dots to a .500 record as they continue to keep alive in the Class AA' playoff race sitting at No. 20 in the ratings. Hovering POJH J around midpack, the Dots will desperately be seeking a win this week against the Big Blacks to help keep their playoff hopes alive. Poca has also received a lot of help from quarterback Seth 'Martin, who passed for 95 yards and a pair of scores last week. With a dangerous rushing attack and a quarterback that can make things happen when needed, Point Pleasant will have to bring its best against the Dots. But a talented rushing attack doesn't intimidate Point Pleasant. Along with shutting down Wayne last week, the Big Blacks also stopped one of the top rushers in the region during their week three victory over Meigs, holding Cornelius English , who came into the game averaging over 200 yards per game. unde~ I00 in the win - the only time he has rushed for under I00 yards this season. But · while · Point Pleasant's defense has stole the headlines, th~ offense has slowly been com ing together after a slow start. Led by senior Tyler Grant, who had rushed for over I00 yards in two straight games before being held to just I8 yards last week, the Big Blacks rushing attack has really begun to click. But even with the strong play of the backfield, the Red and Black will have a .major obstacle to overcome this week in replacing quarterback B.J. Lloyd. Lloyd, who injured his wrist during last week' s game, will mi ss the rest of the season and his backup, senior Troy Leport, is also lost for the season after an ankle injury. Without an experienced quarterback, Point Pleasant will look to a recent breakout player to fill that role as speedy freshman Allan Wasonga steps in under center. Wasonga was moved up from the freshme·n team two weeks ago and immediately made his .presence felt, rushing for a touchdown on his first carry. He was worked more into · the offensive scheme 'last week and it showed as he led the team in rushing in . hi s first full game with 79 yards on eight carries. With the loss of Lloyd, who had been improving each week, Wasonga wi II lead the potent rushing attack with Grant. Caleb Wasonga and Derek Mitchell helping form a very dangerous combo. Overall Grant has rushed for 362 yards and two touchdowns this season with Mitchell just behind at 221 yards and Caleb Was6nga at 141 yards on the year in the balanced attack. Lloyd had moved into the top five in the Conference in passing with 322 yards before getting hurt. Now Point Pleasant will try to regroup from a stril)g of injuries and letdowns and try to fire off a few last season victories and maybe make a run at .500 on· the year. . Game time for Friday's game is scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m. lead and come-from-behind boost that overcame a deficit set up by Niki Fulks' who had previously given from Page 81 SG a 7-4 advantage.

Southern BY LARRY CRUM LCRUM@MYDAILVREGISTER.COM GLENVILLE, w. Va. _ Finally Hannan has something to look forward to. After facing a brutal. early season schedule, the second half of the year begins this week and with it brings new hope to a Hannan program ravished with,injuries. Along with playing teams closer in -size to, the Wildcats, Hannan hopes more than anything else that the second half of the year will give the team a chance to heal early wounds and hopefully start playing the kind of ball it knows it can. And that all starts this Friday. Hannan (0-5) will make a nearly three hour trip to Gll!nville to take on fellow winless squad Gilmer County (0-6) who the Wildcats beat for one of its two wins last season. And Friday 's game, which is scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m., will go a long way toward the rest of the season for whoever manages to pull out the win. "I am very optimistic about Friday night . I think this is a team that we can play with and have a good showing against and win, lose or draw I want the kids to see that they can play football with a team and hopefully that will get them up for the second half of the year," said Hannan head coach Keith Taylor. And while the second half of the year may be manageable, the first half wa& almost unbearable. . The first five games saw Hannan against teams a "You can't build a procombined 17-12 including gram, you can't get kids to games against a pair of come and play football in a ranked squads while the program as small as Hannan second half of the year sees if you go out week irl and the Blue and Gold facing a week out and play these much easier slate against schools that are more or less teams a combined 7-22. powerhouses:: Taylor said.
