ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) - Steve Mariucci's chann and easygoing ways made him popular in his home state. They also may have led to his demise as coach of the Detroit Lions. . "I think that's fair to say," offensive tackle Jeff. Backus said in an interview with The Associated Press. "My two ·NFL coaches have been Steve Mariucci and Marty Mornhinweg. and both are players' coaches that treated us like men and let some things slide. "Maybe that's why the team felt we needed a different way of doing things." Mariucci was fired Monday and replaced by defensive coordinator Dick Jauron on an interim basis. "I don't think anyone in our busine" wants to be standing here in this situation," said Jauron, who had a 35-46 record as Chicago's head coach from 1999-2003. Team president Matt Millen made the decision after consulting with the owners. When Mariucci's soft-handed approach was questioned, Millen said he made the move for a variety of reasons he dido 't want to detail. · "Everyone has their own way of doing things and it didn't work," Millen said. Mariucci has more than two years remaining on the $25 million contract he . signed in 2003.

Ubt!ly 48, Nlkls McKinlay 46 ·Colts blast Steelers INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - · The Indianapolis Colts are shoving aside ch'allengers as If they'll never be 'beaten. Now the Pittsburgh Steelers are out of the way, too . From their first offensive play Monday . night, the unbeaten Colts dominated the Steelers, winning their II th straight game 26-7. Peyton Manning hit a streaking Maniin Harrison in stride for an 80-yard score, and the Colts never looked back. Now they-can look forward ·to the final month of what is becoming an extraordinary season. The ll th team ever to go 11-0 and the first si nce Denver in 1998, the Colts have beaten three of their main AFC competitors - the Patriots, Bengals and Steelers (7-4) - in a span of four weeks. "Is it a burden being ll -0?'' Manning said, repeating a question. "I never thought of it as that. It's an honor because of the respect I have for NFL teams. It's hard to win ·1I games in a season, let alone the first ll." While there are some significant obstacles ahead in their quest to match the 1972 Miami Dolphins' perfect regular season, such as meetings with San Diego, Jacksonville and Seattle, the Colts should be favored in all five remaining games. In shutting down Pittsburgh with a staunch, aggressive defense that yielded only 197 yards, the Colts also ended a seven-game slide in this series dating to 1984. Manning hurdled his New England jinx on a Monday night at the beginning of November, and he got his first career victory over Pittsburgh to finish off the month They handed Steelers quar. terback Ben Roethlisberger his first road defeat; he was ·90, but couldn't do much in his first game back after missing three weeks because of knee surgery. The Colts also set a franchise record with a lOth straight home win in earning their 400th victory, combining the years in Baltimore and Indianapolis. "We went to New England and beat the AFC East lead- ovcs ers, we beat Cincinnati and Pittsburgh ," coach Tony Dungy said. "Knowing we can beat the good teams and · defending our turf is a good feeling." Edgerrin James became the tirst rusher to gain 100 yards against Pittsburgh in 23 gam~s. running for 124 on 29 carnes. By contrast, Roethlisberger led the Steelers in rushin~ with 21 yards until Wilhe Parker broke a 24-yard run in the final moments. "I know when I get the ball I've got certain things I've got to do," James said. "It's just a matter of how many times I get the ball," The only time Manning had faced the Steelers before in his eight-year career was a 28-10 loss at Pittsburgh in 2002. He passed for 304 yards and a touchdown, but was intercepted three times. On this night, he began another Colts rout, hitting, Harrison behind Ike Taylor just I :44 into the game. But after Mike Vanderjagt's 29-yard field goal made it 100, the Steelers sniffed out another deep pass to Harrison. Manning underthrew his star receiver and Troy Polamalu intercepted, slaloming through several weak tackle attempts in returning the ball 36 yards to the 7. · After penalties set back the Steelers, Roethlisberger hit Hines Ward for a 12-yard score, making it l 0-7. That was about it for Pittsburgh. Indy's ·vastly upgraded defense, ranked eighth and hittin ~ as hard as . the Steel Curtam ever has, shut down the Steelers the rest of the way. If not for . Polamalu's pick and four 15-yard penalties against the Colts, Pittsburgh wouldn't have been in the game at halftime. Jeff Reed missed a 41-yard field goal attempt early in the second ·quarter, something teams can't . do against the potent Colts. Vanderjagt made a 48-yarder later in the period, and hit a 44-yarder on the final play of the half after Mi,ke Doss' interception and a 15-yard personal foul on Pittsburgh's Jeff Hartings during the runback. semifinal.

"In a live-week season, you're not going to significantly change anything," Jauron said.

Authorities said it's the 'fi rst rash of fake bills ·appearing in the area in a year. · Darst was not S\tre cif the dates the bills were passed at the store. but said one fake $20 was used on one occasion and four $20s surfaced on another date. The bills. were better quality counterfeit than authorities · and businesses have been used to, Darst said, but the giveaway was the fact the same serial 11umbe~ appeared on all of the bi lis. "It was really not .bad for th is area." Darst said. Although $100 and $50 bills tend to raise local cashiers' eyebrows, $20s are so common that closer examination doesn't happen , he' added. The influx of counterfeit into the area has alened businesses, and Darst said he checked with Gallipolis police to find some links betw een the bills passed in Cheshire and around the area. "A lot of people don't pay attention to $20s, but now l think people are looking more closely at them," Darst said . Gallipolis police are working with the Gallia and Mason counties' sheriff's departments, Point Pleasant Police and the U.S. Secret Service since counterfeit has been turning up in Gallia and · Mason. Police have "several good leads we're following up on, but ihere is still a problem out there," Gallipolis Lt. Keith Elliott said last week. RUTLAND AMERICAN· LEGION DONATION Wednesday, November 30, 2005 FAMILY MEDICINE POMEROY -In the month of December we celebrate many different religious and secular holidays. including Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza and New Year's Day. It's a busy time for almost everyone. So, in keeping with that holiday spirit, for the 14th year in a row, we will give our readers a break from the usual treatise on the diagnosi s and treatment o'f illness. Instead, we'll discuss a delightful food recipe that provides sustenance and pleasure, rather than that usual discussion of human ailments. I hope that this year's recipe will be a special holiday treat for your family. A few years ago, I had the good fortune to be able to travel to Australia. Following an afternoon of camel riding, 1 was treated to a delightful dinner that was capped off by something called ·~st icky . Dale Pudding." First of all, the name is a slight ll)isnomer, since it's really a cake rather than a pudding. As the name implies, however, it is slightly sticky. Eve11 if you don't like dates, you shouldn't be the least bit put off because it contains this tropical fruit. Sticky date pudding is a delectable cake covered with a toffee sauce that will satisfy anyone's sweet tooth. It is easy to make and is best served warm with some rich, vanilla ice cream. Recently, 1 have seen similar recipes in cooking magazines called "Sticky Toffee Cake." Ingredients 2 tbsp: butter 3/4 c. sugar 2 eggs 3/4 c. self-rising flour 3/4 c.chopped dates l c. boiling water 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract 1/2 tsp. baking soda Combine boiling water, baking soda and dates. Set aside for about 20 minutes, stir oc.casionally. Preheat oven to 350 degrees . In medium mixing bowl, cream the butter arid sugar, until smooth. Add eggs, one at .a time, mixing well after each. Add in the date, water and baking soda mixture, then vanilla, then flour. (,'lake in an 8-inch round or square pan for 30 minutes.

When this mixtureis liquified and warm, add butter, vanilla .and cardamom. Mix over low heat. (l taste this and add more butter or cream if I think it needs some adjustment. The entire family is usually very happy to help with this process.) Drizzle the · warm sauce over the warm cake and add a topping of vanilla ice cream. . I keep the extra sauce covered in the fridge. ·When the · cake is gone, the sauce is great over just ice cream. Family Medicine® is a weekly column. To submit . questions, write to Martha A.

Melody Lingers On" with songs of Irving Berlin was superb. . Upon entering the Meigs Elementary School last Saturday night, the cafetorium was magically transformed into an ele· gant supper club atmosphere. A delicious three course dinner was served by candlelight to the almost 300 attending. Tables for six were deconlted with crystal vases filled with long stemmed red roses. The two-act musical production, consisting of almost four dozen of some of Irving Berlin's most popular songs were interspersed with a nll!Tution, of some of the most important events of Irving Berlin's life. The professionalism of the soloists, groups, and dancers, all who performed with a live ·band, again showcased the man>' talents of our area residents. It was a most enjoyable evemng. We of Meigs and the surrounding counties were privileged to experience such an outstanding event.

Since May, DuPont and the EPA repeat· edly have said they were close to a settlement in the civil case, but had one item left to resolve. They would not identify that i tern. DuPont has maintained that C8, also known as per· fluorooctanoic acid or PFOA , has no negative health effects. In February, DuPont settled a classaction lawsuit for $107.6 million brought by Ohio and West Virginia residents in 2001, alleging the Delaware-based company intentionally withheld and misrepresented information concerning the nature and extent of the human health threat posed by C8. The EPA in July 2004 filed a complaint that alleg-ed DuPont had caused widespread contamination of drinking water supplie s near its Washington Works plant.

(AP) Virginia 's gove rnor on Tuesday spared the life of a convicted killer who Would have been the l.OOOth person executed in the Un ited States since the Supreme Court allowed capital punishment to resume in 1976. Robin Lovitt's death sentence was commuted to life in prison without parole a little more than 24 hours before he was to be executed by injection Wednesday night for stabbing a man to death with a pair of scissors during a 1998 pool -hall robbery.· . In gran ting c l eme~cy, Gov. Mark R. Warner nOted that ev idence from the trial had been improperl y destroyed , depriving the defense of the opportunity to stJbjcct the material to the latest in DNA test ing. "The commonwealth must ensure that every time .this ultimate sanction is carried out, it is done fairly," Warner said in a statement. Warner, a· Democrat, had never before gramed ·clemency to a death row inmate during his four years in office . During that time, 'II men have been executed. Virginia is one of the most active deathpenalty states, having executed 94 people since 1976. The I ,OOOth execution is now scheduled for Friday in North Carolina, where Kenneth Lee Boyd is slated to die for killing his estranged wife and her father. The 999th execution since capital punishment resumed a ge neration ago took place Tuesday morning, when Ohio put to death John Hick s, who strangled his mother-in-law and suffocated his 5-year-old stepdaughter to cover up the crt me. Lovitt 's lawyers, who 1 include former independent counsel Kenneth Starr, and · anti-death penalty advocates had argued that his life should · be spared because a court clerk illegally destroyed the bloody scissors and other ,evidence, preventing DNA testing that they said could exonerate him. Lovitt was convicted in 1999 of murdering Clayton Dicks at an Arli.ngton pool hall. Prosecutors said Dicks caught Lovitt prying open a cash register with the scissors, which police found in the woods between the pool hall and the home of Lovin's cousin. Lovitt admitted grabbing the cash box but insisted someone else killed Dicks. DNA rest5 on the scissors at the time of the trial were inconclusive. But more sophi sticated DNA techni'ques are now available. 8ay Merry Christmas to 8omeone 8pecial with a &ntinel Christmas i\n8el ~ONLY~ ~ooo fer Picture Prepaid MIAMI (AP) - Miami police announced Monday they will stage random shows of force at hotel s. banks and other public places to ke ep terrorists guessing and remind peopl e to 'be vigilant.

It is aimed at setting agreements on emissions cuts planned after 2012, when the second phase of the protocol begins. The Kyoto agreement targets carbon dioxide and five other heat-trapping gases blamed for rising global temperatures and disrupted weather patterns. It calls on the top 35 industrialized nations to cut emiss(ons to 5.2 percent below their 1990 levels between 2008 and 2012. The United States, the world's largest emitter of polluting gases, has refused to ratify the agreement, saying it would harm the U.S: economy and is flawed by the lack 9f restrictions on emissions by emerging economies such as China and India. President Bush called for an 18 percent reduction in the U.S. growth rate of greenhouse gases by 2012 and has committed $5 billion a year on science and technology to combat global warmrng. Harlan Watson, chief climate control negotiator for the U.S. State Department, told a news conference that Washington would maintain its position of rejecting any calls for an international a~reement .th~t . bmds c<!untnes to emtss1ons reducttons after 2012. Watson said the United States would continue voluntary efforts to curb global warming via sc ience, techno!ogy and bilateral agreements with other nation s. He said greenhouse gas emissions had gone down nearly I percent in Bush 's first three years in ofltce. "We need to pursue our international efforts in a spirit of cooperation - not coercion -. with a true sense of partnership," Watson said.

Dangers of China's chemical spill could linger for years in river ice HARBIN, China (AP) Experts warned Tuesday that dangers from a huge chemical spill in this northeastern Chinese city could last for years because of toxins including cancer-cau sing benzene - imbedded in ice and mud at the bottom of the Songhua River. ..Their concern came as city officials in Harbin and down river in Russia's Far East, where the 50-mile-long chemical slicl( was headed, sought to reassure residents their tap water was clean. . "Harbin's water is now safe tp use and drink," Xiu 1inggong, vice director of the city's health inspection bureau, said on local state television. "Everybody can rest assured." In Khabarevsk, Russia, a ltlp environmental official drank a glass of tap water on television to show his confidence in its purity. Officials estimate ttie benzene spi II flowin g from the Sqnghua into the larger Heilong River, called the Amur in Russia, s(1ould reach the border city a,round Dec . I0- 12 - or sooner. Chine se Health Minister Gao Qiang said the incident highlighted a "major prob· leln." · , "This matter has alerted us to the need for perfect contin, 15ency plaris and the effective Implementation of those plans when faced with an emergency," Gao said at a press conference Wednesday. Water was shut off for five days in Harbin, the capital of the northeastern province of 8eilongjiang famed for its annual winter ice festival. after the Nov. 13 explosion at a ,nearby chemical plant. The blast, which authorities said killed five people, spewed I00 tons of benzene and relalect toxins into the Songhua, which passes through Harbin and provides most of the city's drinking water. Running water resumed Sunday for Harbin 's 3.8 million people, but many residents said they were sticking with bottled water. In parts of the city, wmer from taps ran dirty. "We still can't be sure that it's safe." said bank worker Sun Ning as she loaded a shopping cart with bottled water at a supermarket. "It's not that we don't trust the government but .we are still not totally at ease ." At Jinshan Re staurant , c.hefs were busil y stuffing and wrappi·ng meat and vegetable dumplings - but steaming them with bottled water. Water is agai n coming out of the tap, "but we don't dare use it." said chef Jin Zhonghua. Jin said he lines up each morning before 9 a.m. to fill bottles from a water truck. In Russia, the Emergency Situations Minisiry said the pollutants could affect 70 Russian cities and villages with a total of over I million residents along ·the Amur River. A spokesman for the World Wide Fund for Nature said the river faced "ecological catastrophe" from the chemical slick. "There will be an effect on nature - plants and fish will die - and economic dam· age ," said Ilya Mitasov. a Moscow-based spokesman for the environmental group. The pollution will result in widespread fish deaths and force residents and industries to search for alternative sources of water. he told The Associated Press by telephone. The only way to get rid of the toxins is evaporation, but water temperatures would 'have to be 68 to start that process, Mitasov sai d. Currently it' s about 50 degrees, and there is ice on some stretches of the Amur River, which. ultimately feeds into the Sea of Okhotsk. "The benzene will remain in the ice until spring. and the (s ituation) will be (\ragged out." Mitasov said. Zhang Qingxiang. professor of environmental studies at Shanghai's East China University of Science and Technology, also· warned that the Songhua's spring thaw could bring another wave of benzene contamination. Authorities "should pay much attention next spring when the ice is going to melt," Zhang said. Even 'more serious were pollutants absorbed into the riverbed, including by aquatic plants and micro-organisms, Zhang said. Declining water quality could take I0 years or more to recover, he said, time enough for fish to introduce benzene into the food chain . "Tins is going to break the People queue to get drinking water from a street water pump in Khabarovsk - about 6.100 kilometers (3,800 miles) south!=ast of Moscow Tuesday. Russia's Emergency Situations Ministry said the pollutants from Chinese Songhua River could affect 70 Russian cities and villages with a total of over 1 million residents along the Amur river, including Khabarovsk. a city of 580,000. Officials said the benzene spill was expected to reach Khabarovsk on Dec. 10-12 or sooner. AP Photo ecological balance," Zhang said. Although Chinese media has reported little about the pos sible long-term effects, fish and other aquatic products from the Songhua were being kept off the market. Chinese newspapers said a team of environmental officials from Khabarovsk, a city of 580,000, were meeting with Harbin officials Tuesday. Russia planned to switch off running water and airlift activated carbon for use in water treatment facilities to help absorb the spill . China's communist government has apologized to Russia - as well as the Chinese public - over the spi ll. .China's Foreign Ministry said Beijing would do what it could to prevent the incident from harming friendly ties wit h· Moscow. Des)lite complaints of lying and attempts at concealment, authorities have defended their handling of the spill. While officials have promi sed greater accountability over health concerns like bird tlu, they fear the unrest embodied by growing protests over corruption and inaction against pollution. Harbin 's disaster also highlighted .the costs of China 's breakneck economic development, which has lifted millions out of poverty but left environmental protections in shambles. ~r.. l~e\~ tK.

Bengals, not botch~d onside attempt, on Cowher's mind PITTSBURGH (A P) Hours after the Pittsburgh Steelers' worst loss in more than two y~ars. there were no apologies from coach Bill Cov.her There was no mea culpa for the tailed ons1de kick call at the start of the second half that the unbeaten Indianapolis Colts quickly converted mto a touchdov.n and a 16-point lead en route to their 26-7 vicLory Monday night- the Steelers· second loss in a row. "The call was made to try to get us a spark and get us another possession," Cowher sa1d Tuesd,ly "That's my dem10n It it works, it's a goodplay lfitdoesn ' t,you ' re open to second guessing, which 1s the nature of this busrne>s. But I have no second thoughts .1bout that. I really don't." Cowher was so certain the play would have worked. he considered opemng the ~arne wnh It had the Steelers kicked off He also thmks It would have worked to start the second half - based on how the Colts align themse lves for kickoff returns - "if we had executed 1L the nght way" There also was no apology for trying not one, not two, but three running backs, all m a fitful pursUit of a dependable runner who could gam yardage and prevent the Colts' defense from pressuring quarterback Ben Roethhsberger m his fust start in a month So. rather than spendmg much of his weekly nev. s conference reviewing a game m which the Steelers trailed 7-0 less than two mmute s Into the game, Cov. her preferred to Issue a challenge to his players to get better, and 111 a hurry, before Sunday's game against Cincinnati Despne playmg 111 one of the NFL's biggest games all season only the mght before. Cowher satd the Bengal s game is b1gger for his team. "Ob, iou sly, it's the btggest game of the year, and we all know what's at stake," he smd. If the Steelers wm, they will be tied tor the diVIsion lead but will effectively own tl because they Will have sv.e pt the Bengals (8-3) in head-tohea,d play That means they would need only to stay tied v.ith Cincmnatr tor the tmal prove too b1g a difference to four weeks of the season to oven:ome. and could put. the win their fourth d1 VISion Iitle Steelers IIlLO a jumbled mix since the AFC North was for a wild-card spot. • No wonder Cowher talked a formed Ill 2001. Should th~y lose, they lot more about Sunday than would ltml the Bengal s by he did about Monday mght, two games with four to play, which represented the mdudmg dllhcult ga mes Steelers' worst regular season agarn st the Bears at home and defeat smce a 33-13 loss to ''' th e V1kmgs. That could Cleveland on Oct 5, 2003 Sidekick very different, too. Earlier thiS season, John son tned to get Houshmandzadeh to JOi n him tn having fun talking to the media about upcoming games. Hou shmandzadeh politely declined - he's not mto shtick "That's not me," he said. At one time, it was. As a player at Cerritos junior college in California, he was as much of a showoff as any of them "I'd be outrageous, gomg up into the stands, going to the concessiOn stand and getLlhg a hot · dog," Houshmandzadeh smd. The coac hes told him to stop, so he d1d He stayed lov. -key when he moved to Oregon State, where he first became Johnson's teammate. Both came to Cmcinnau in the 200 I draft - Johnson in the second round, Houshmandzadeh m the seventh When Peter Warrrck got hurt last season, Houshmandzadeh got h1s chance and again form~d a tandem with Johnson.

NEW YORK B11ly Wagner is followmg Carlos Delgado to Shea Stadium, reaching a preliminary agreement on a $43 million, fouryear contract with the New York Mets. Just hours after Delgado's introductory news conference at the ·ballpark on Monday, Wagner agreed to a deal with the highest average salary for a fllliever. \ :'Everybody's lookmg for pitching and there's not a lot of pitching out on the market. Consequently, it's econom· ics," said Philadelphia Phillies general manager Pat Gilhck, who was unsuccessful in his attempt to re-sign the closer. Earlier Monday, B.J Ryan finalized a $47 million, fiveyear agreement With the Toronto Blue Jays The total of Ryan's contract is the largest for a reliever. The previous marks for total and average were held by New York Yankees closer Mariano Rivera. "It's good not to have an unsigned closer right now, to be in the market for a closer," smd Rick Hahn, assistant general manager of the World Series champion Chicago White Sox. "It certainly is an indication of this robust market for free agents." With Wagner headed to New York, Philadelphia is considering Tom Gordon and Trevor Hoffman The Yankees have a two-year offer out to Gordon and also hav6 been nego\Iating with Kyle Farnsworth. Another sign of the premium placed on pitching was the deal Oakland gave to starter Esteban Loaiza, who went 12·10 with a 3.77 ERA for the Washmgton Nationals last season. He agr~ed to a three-year contract with the Athletics worth $2 t ,375,000. And in a deal finalized Tuesday, the Chicago Cubs gave a $12 milhon, three-year contract to right-handed setup man Bobby Howry, who joins left-bander Scott Eyre in their beeted·up bullpen. Moments after pulling on a Mets jersey at Shea Stadium, Delgado explained why he won't continue his refusal to stand on the field during "God Bless Amenca," a stance he took the last two seasons while playing with Toronto and then Florida. Delgado. who spurned New York last offseason to sign with the Marlins, spoke about his anu.war protest with Mets chief operating officer Jeff Wilpon. "I gave him my views on that subject and I also said I would not put myself in front of the team," Delgado said. "The Mets have a policy that everybody should stand for 'God Bless Amenca' and I will be there. I will not cause any distractiOns to the ballclub." New York also has offers out to tree agent catchers Beng1e Molina and Ramon Hernandez, and the Mets haven't ruled out trying to acquire Manny Ramirez from the Boston Red Sox. In Chicago, Jim Thome was introduced by the White Sox, Dayton fromPageBl Roberts, who was 9-of-13 from the field. "The streak wasn't on my mind." Cincinnati (3-l) took the rare home-court loss a day after assistant coach Keith LeGree resigned following his se~:ond drunken dnving arrest, the latest blow to a program still trying to recover from coach Bob Huggins' fmced resignation m August. LeGree's departure left interim coach Andy Kennedy with only one full-time assistant - two le ss than the norm . For the first time, the Bearcats looked like a team weighed down by its recent past. "I want to apologize to all of the Bearcats faithful," Kennedy said. "That was not Cincinnati Bearcats basketball, and we're going to do everythmg in our power to make sure it doesn't happen agam.

' I remember once when he missed a popup over h1s head, down the nght-tield lme. After the game, he took h1s glove into the clubhouse and cut it mto httle bltly pieces," Grant said.

"Three years we felt very comfortable with. Going to a fourth year as the Mets went to, we didn ' t feel that comfortable," Gillick smd. Wagner needed to pass a physical, which was likely to take place Tuesday. New York spokesman Jay Horwitz dechned comment, but the Mets scheduled an afternoon news conference at Shea StadiUm. ln Toronto, Ryan was asked at his news conference if he was worth the money. "1 do~'t know," h~ said " I guess I m gomg to go out on that field and see When you s1gn a deal hke thi s. you want to hold up )OUr end of rt" A left-hander who turns 30 on Dec 28, Ryan has 42 career saves, including 361ast season for the Baltimore Orioles. "He stands among the few pitchers in baseball worthy of a five-year contract," Blue Jays general manager J P. Ricciardi said. " I know our startmg pitchers will be very happy to hear thi s news." Ryan's deal tops the $39.99 mrllron, four-year contract Rivera got from the Yankees from 2001-04. Wagner's average salary of $10.75 m1lhon tops that of Rivera, who has one season remmmng under a $21 million, two-year contract with New York.

Colts looking at playoffs, not perfection ' INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts would define perfection as winning a Super Bowl title. Anything more would· be a bonus. But with five weeks left in the regular season, the Colts' arduous, three-decade . quest to return to the Super Bowl now carries an added burden - trying to join the 1972 Miami Dolphins as the only unbeaten teams in NFL history. Forget that the C,olts iue already 11-0, could clinch the AFC South title in the next two weeks and may . soon wrap up a first-round bye and home-field advantage throughout the playoffs. The big question now around Indy - and the NFL -is whether anyone can beat this team. Coach Tony Dungy wants everyone to keep things in perspective. "Hopefully we win the next two because that means we will w(ap up the division," he said Tuesday. · " If we win them, we know ihere will be a lot of talk about 'Can you go undefeated?' But that's never really been ou'r goal." What the Colts have •demonstrated ' through September, October and . November is that they can win games in almost every conceivable fashion. Shut down Manning and the offense, and Indy can win the slugfest. Force the Colts into a shootout, and they' ll score more points. Take the lead, early or late, and the Colts can rally. And if an opponent dares ihe Colts to protect a · lead, they've proven they can run out the clock. "It's a matter of it all coming together at the right time,': running back Edgerrin James said. How good are the Colts? Indy hasn't trailed in a game since Oct. 17, the offense has averaged nearly 36 points in the last eight games and the defense has allowed an AFC-low 159 , points. On Monday, former Bears and Saints coach Mike Ditka said on a national radio talk show that this offense was the best he'd ever seen. Last week. Don Shula, architect of the Dolphins team that went 17-0, said he believed the Colts could continue knocking off challengers. "As long as they stay healthy. 1 think they've got a great shot at it," Shula said. Over the past four weeks. the Colts also have demonstrated their mettle by knocking off three of the conference's top contenders- winning at two-time defending Super Bowl champ New England and AFC North leader Cincinnati before taking out Pittsburgh 26-7 on Monday night. That also meant exorcising some old demons. The victory over the Patriots was Indy's first in Foxborough since 1995, and Monday night's victory ended a 21-year drought against the Steelers. Those victories have essentially eliminated all · three teams from the home-field chase. That·makes the Denver Broncos (9-2) the only serious contender to force the Colts out of the RCA Dome in January, when Indianapolis has been most vulnerable playing outdoors in the cold. For now, though. it means little to the Colts, who can wrap up their third straight AFC South title with two more wins - at home Sunday against Tennessee and at Jacksonville on Dec. II. "We want to see if we can get that done," Dungy said. "So our focus is winning the first one. This is a very critical two-week stretch for us." Whlle others debate whlch team could derail the Colts' historic quest, staying unbeaten is not what motivates Indianapolis. ' "We just need to take this step and move forward," defensive tackle Corey Simon said after the Steelers game. "We can't rest our head on what we did this week and then go out next week and not play well. We n"eed to continue to improve ." · After Tennessee and Jacksonville, the Colts have a d angerous game against San Diego, which is making a late-season push for the playoft"s. It also happens to fa ll between an emotional contest against the Jaguars and what will likely be hyped as a Super Bowl previe\v at Seattle on Dec. 24. They finish at home against Arizona, and then the Colts . can finally focus on the games they've been craving since last January. "I lk' wasta mg to (Pittsburgh coach) Bill Cowher-about it . last . night. and he said ' We went 15-- 1 last year and no one really cares,"' Dungy said. "It would be an honor, it would be special to go undefeated, but it won't mean anythin g if you don't win in the playoffs." So Manning. the two-time MVP. and his teammates find themselves in an unusual position . Fourteen or 15 wins would assure the Colts of not playing outdoors after Dec . . 24. But anything less than 160 may not satisfy critics. So the Colts will focus on their stated goal of winning the Super-Bowl and let others debate the definition of a perfeet season. "Going undefeated has never been our goal," Dungy said. "The teams that get remembered are not the ones who have great regular seasons, they are the ones who do something in the playoffs.'.' next with 11 and freshman Alexis Geiger had 10.

Smart scored 27 points and pulled in 10 rebounds to help No. 2 Cedarville to an 89-71 win over Rio Grande in a key early-season American Mideast Conference South Division match-up Tuesday. Both clubs are among the favorites to capture the AMC South title. The Lady Jackets improved to 7-1 and 2-0 in .the South.

West Virginia also must carry the conference's BCS ranking. Should WV U lose, it would fall out of the BCS top 12, meaning the Big East would be pressed to solidify its BCS berth before 2007, 'when all conferences are reviewed to insure that their automatic bid is worthwhile. · "For as much work as you put in, and with regular season games meaning so much, I think the guys will focus,' ' Rodriguez said. "We had a lot of guys that lelt · they had something to prove. They have-played like it. I feel you should play like that all the till)e. Some players do, some don't." The Mouncaineers had the latter problem last season, when it dropped its final three ·games, costing it the outright Big East championship and allowing rival Pitt to snare the BCS berth. This season, with freshmen in such key slots as quarterback, receiver and running back, WVU has been surprisingly resilient. . . ., tc,ve·Ljgb,t.s: I · aA:·~u~e • •• • ~ Middleport • Pomeroy, Ohio 50 CENTS • Vol. 55, No. 76 • Cavaliers sink Clippers in overtime.

Consider quarterback Pat White, who said he was rooting for No: 3 Louisiana State so West Virginia could play them in the Sugar Bowl. White grew up rooting for LSU and commitred to the Tillers before coming to West Vtrginia. "But," White said, "first thinlls first with South Flortda." . Safety Jahmile Addae grew up 10 minutes from Tampa's Raymond James Stadium and played his tina! high school game there. He is looking for tickets and planning for family as much as for USF. · "It will be strange to play my final college regular season game there as well," Addae said. "I have so many requests that I told people that if their last name isn't Addae, I can't help them." . · The distractions are myriad for the Mountaineers.

A flu shot clinic will be held from 9 a.m. to I I a.m. and 1 p.rn. to 6 p.m. on Tuesday , Dec. 6 at the health department for the gen,eral public. MCHD Director of Nursing Sherry Weese, RN , said there are 400-plus doses left after last month 's flu shot clinics held for residents considered high ri sk and chronically ill. Weese added there are also 100 children 's . doses available. Tuesday's flu shot clinic is for any Ohio resident including those who are NOT over 65 years of age , nor have a chronic health condition. There will be a charge of SlO for the vaccine unless the patient has Medicare of Medicaid. Medicare and Medicaid cards will need to be brought to the clinic. ,_ The clinic will be held on a "walk-in" basis with. no appointments needed. Weese said if any doses · remain after Tuesday 's clinic, residents should call the health department to make an appointme nt for .their flu shot to make sure nursing staff is available to administer the dosage. Earlier this year the MCHD's shipment of tlu . vaccines were late and for a time there were doubts that all the vaccines would arrive, especially any for the general public . This pattern of lack of supply for growing demand was repeated throughout the country. Fearing thin they would run short on vaccinations for the high risk and elderly, and fearing that ODH would ask for any remaining v~ccines to be returned, the MCHD had been suggesting that resi· dents get their flu shot from a private provider. Now that ODH has given the "afl\clear" to vaccinate the general public even the nurses at the health department can get their llu shots. and so can several others. For any additional questions call 992-6626 . POMEROY - This time of year as children get on and off their school buses, take note of the . ones who are wearing thin jackets or no coats at all. Chances are they are going without a winter coat not because they a{e making a fashion statement. but because they simply don ' t have one. · For the 'last 21 years Peoples Bank in Pomeroy has attempted to remedy this situation by providing preschool through middle . school age children with winter coats through their Coats For Kids program . The bank works with teachers in each school district in Meigs County. Teachers observe which of their students are in need. No names of children are given , only their gender and sile. When the coats are actual ly delivered, they are confidentially passed out in the office not the child's classroom. Dianna Lawson of Peoples Bank of Pom eroy i' in charge of Coats For Kids though she said everyone at the bank pitches i.n to help the program. Lawson >aid th is year over Ch8flone Hoefttch/photo Peoples Bank's Coats For Kids Program recently received $350 from the Meigs County Fis h and ·Game Association. The money was used to purchase new winter coats for needy children. Although the program Is currently caught up on filling orders. organizers anticipate a spike in orders when winter fJJlally arrives in Meigs County. Dianna Lawson (left) of Peoples Bank and Coats_For Kids is asking for donations of used and new coats, or cash donations like that made by the Association which was represented by (center) Ron Snyder and Dave Doerfer. I 00 winter coats have been distributed to children throu ghout Meigs Countv. Along with those coats were donated gloves and toboggans collected at Bunn's Party Barn. Current ly the bank is needing smaller coat sizes such as fours and sixe s to distribute and they often run out of medium sizes. Coats for Kids accepts used winter coats in good condition as well as new coats or cash donations to purchase them .
