His voluntary early stan on his prison tenn'' Answers to these questions, among others. will detem1ine how much time the suspended Atlanta Falcons quarterback · will serve in pri son for his role in a federal dogfighting consptracy. And the only man who knows the answers . is U.S. District Judge Henry E. Hudson, who will sentence Vick in a packed courtroom Monday while the disgraced NFL star's supporters ami animal-rights activists rally outside. . Vick faces a maximum of five years in prison. Hudson is not bound by sentencing guidelines that suggest a year to 18 months, or prosecutors' recommendation. Hudson already has sentenced two of Vick's codefendants to 18 months and 21 months - slightly more than prosecutors recommended, but still within the guidelines. Legal experts · said Hudson's willingness to stick . to the guidel ines in those cases is a positive sign for Vick, but bY. no means a guarantee he wtll get similar treatment because so many factors could work against him.· · . For example, Vick admitted he bankrolled the "Bad Newz Kennels" dogfighting enterprise on a 15"acre property he owned in rural southeastern Virginia. He also gave his associates money to bet on the fights but said he did not share in any winnings. "The judge could say that but for the money, this might not have happened - or might not have happened on the scale that it did," said Linda Malone, a law professor at the College of William &Mary. Richmond attorney Steve Benjamin, secretary of the National Association of Crimi nal Defense Lawyers, noted the plea agreement Vick negotiated wnh prosec utors did not include any sentencing enhancement for a leadershi p role in the conspiracy. But that does not precl ude Hudson from considering that rule, Benjamin said. Perhaps a bigger concern for Vtck. according to Malone, is the extent of his ·involvement in executing dogs. Vick admitted helping kill s i ~ to eight pit bulls. Any details the judge learns about exactly what Vick did could weigh heavily in his decision, Marone smd. She said Huds~m also li.kei,Y will take a dtm vtew of Vtck s positive test for marijuana in September - a violation of the conditions set for Vick's release after he pleaded guilty. The i'nfraction prompted Hudson to impose a curfew and electronic monitoring. Vick voluntarily began serving his prison tc;rm Nov. 19, a move his lawyer said demonstrated Vick's willingness to take responsibility for his actions. '.'It was beneficial that . he went in to serve his sentence before Thanksgiving, but that wasn't completelY. altruistic because he couldn t play football anyway,".Malone said. Defendants typically get credit for acceptance of responsibility and contrition. Vick apologi;j:ed at a news conference after entering his guilty plea, and he will have an opportunity .to speak directly to the court before he is sentenced. Hudson also could hear from witnesses. According to the coun, the sentencing hearing is expected to last two to four hours. The sentencings of co-defendants Purnell Peace and Quanis Phillips combined took only a half hour. No witnesses testified at those hearmgs. Yick's lead attorney, Billy Martin, did not respond to an e-mail inquiry about possible character. witnesses and whether Vick would directly address the court. Like Yick's previous court appearances, thi s one is expected to attract a throng of reporters, as well as demonstrators. Police will close streets around the federal courthouse. The Atlantabased New Order Human Rights.Organi~t ion plans to send members to support Vick, and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals will ' protest the mistreatment of dogs. Gerald Rose. founder and CEO of New Order, said he hopes Hudson will be lenient. "Michael Vick made a bad mistake," he said. "But at the same time, we believe in sec.ond chances. I think God has got Michael Vick 's attention. He's going to come back a better man." Spokesmen for PETA and the Humane Society of the United States said they trust Hudson to make the right decision. "We just want to make sure the sentencing is in line npt only with the two guys who were already sentenced, but also in line with just the outrage and the horror the J?I!Ople have over this case, said PETA spokesman Dan Shannon. John Goodwin, manager of animal fighting issues for the Humane Soctety, said the organization is sensitive to the fact that Hudson will consider the de~ree of Vick's cooperation wtth authorities in naming others involved in dogfighting rings or other crimes. "I seriously doubt he's going to go below what he did for Peace and Phillips," Goodwin said. "I would anticipate a sentence in that range or a little higher, and we wtll be happy with that because Michael Vick has suffered more consequences than anyone ever has·for dogfighting." Those consequences include the loss of a stellar NFL career, legions of adoring fans,· lucrative endorsement deals, and now, his freedom. "This whole case has sent a pretty strong message to people," Goodwin said. "You get mvolved in dogfighting, you're throwing your future away.' Sho · Monday, December tO; 2007 www.mydailysentinel.com ' Raiders fall to Panthers, 86-77 BY ERIC RANDOLPH SPORTS@MYDAILYSENTINEl.COM CH ES HIRE - If yo u looked at the scoreboard after the River Valley Raiders' basketball game on ·Saturday night, yo u· mi ght thin k two NBA teams had j ust played. . Ryan Eggleton had five three -pointers, . includin g. three in the fourth quarter, but the Raiders (2-1, 0-1) lost for the first time thi s season, 86-77 , in a game that had a co mbined 16'3 points scored. · River Valley battled the Chesapeake Panthers (2 -1, 1-0) for four solid qu arters on Saturday night, but their comeback came up a little short in the end because of timely scoring from the Panthers. From start to fini sh, the Raiders and Panthers pushed the pace. After the teams traded ba skets to start the game,. Chesapeake took a lead that the)' would hold all the way into the fourth quarter. The Panthers tried to press the Raiders in the backcourt early . on but abandoned that strategy almost immediately when River Valley easily moved the ball down the floor, something they would. do all night . Down by eight at one point, the Raiders would get within four points by the end of the first quarter on senior Marcus Frazier's last -second shot. The score after one was 25 -21. The second quarter was back-and-forth for the first three minutes; a . basket at one end was met With a basket at the other. Able to string together a few, rare consecutive baskets; River Valley · would cut the lead to one point and do so again on three other occasions, but Chesapeake was quick to score each time, doing well to hold off t.he Eggleton McAvena Raiders. An up and dow n seco nd quart er would find the lead being stretched to seven again , but it would fin ish at five with the score 47 -42. It would not get an y clos-· er than that for River Valley in the third quarter. In fact, Che sapeake would have their largest lead of the game before it wa s done, twice go ing up by eleven . But ,when it seemed like the Panthers might run away with it, two crucial three-pointers from sophomore Cody McAvena would help th.e Raiders hang around, setting the stage for their comeback in the fourth. The score after three quarters was 62-56. River Valley started the fourth on a 5-0 run , getting to within one for the first time since the second quarter on Eggleton's third three-pointer of the game. re sponded Chesapeake wjth a"nother fast-break score, but it wasn't enough to stop the Raiders' momentum. Then finally, at the 5:43 mark, after four quarters of fighting to get back into the game, EggletOn hit his most critical three -point field goal to tie the score at 64. And when Frazier hit his second three-pointer to give River Valley the lead for the first time, it seemed all their work might actually pay off. But in the time it took to look at the scoreboard and confirm it all, Chesapeake had an swered ·yet again with a di sheartening 3-pointer of their ow n, fo llowed by anot her crushing three on the next pos· session. Clutch free throw shooting fro m Tyler Shoef!l aker would keep the Raiders down the rest of the way. River Valley made 26 fi eld goa ls, II of whi ch came from beyond the arc, and fini shed with four pl ayers in double figures. Frazier had a team-hi gh 20 points, going four-for-four from the foul line. Eggleton finished with 17. Tying with 13 point s api ece were McAvena and seni or Ian Lewis, who was five-of-seven from the lihe. Al so contributing were seniors Ry an Henry with seven points and Devin Gibbs with four. Rounding out the scoring was junior Jordan Deel with three. Che sapeake 's Shoemaker scored a game-high 31 points , making seven of · eight free throws . Kyle Rase al so had 19 for the Panthers.

RELIGIOUS ATIACKS HAD BEEN TIIROWN OUT OF MISSIONARY G SCHOOL, POUCE SAY BY JUDITH KOHLER ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER < COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. The gunman believed to have killed four people at a megachurch and a nussionary training school had been thrown out of the school a few years ago and had been sending it hate mail, police said in court papers Monday. The gunman was identified as Matthew Murray, 24, who was home-schooled in what a friend said was a deeply religious Christian household. Murray 's father is a neurologist and a leading multiple-sclerosis researcher. · Five people - including Murray - were killed, and five others wounded Sunday in the two eruptions of violence 12 hours and 65 miles apart. The first attack took place at Youth With a Mission, a training center for missionaries in .the Denver suburb of Arvada; the other occurred at the New Life Church in Colorado Springs, where Murray was shot to death by a security guard. The training center maintains an office at the I 0,000member church. "Through both investigations it has been determined that most likely the suspect in both shootings are one in the saine," police said in court papers. Colorado Springs pol ice said the "common denominator in both locations" was Youih With a Mission. "It appears that the suspect had been kicked out of the program three years prior and during the past few weeks had sent differe nt forms of hate mail to. tl)e . AP plloto his victims. But the two people killed at the church sisters Stephanie and Rachael Works, ages 18 and 16 - frequented the training center, their uncle Mark Schaepe of Lincoln, Neb., . told The Gazette of Colorado Springs. Authorities searched the Murray house on a quiet street in Englewood on Monday for guns, anJmunition and computers. No one was home when a reporter · visited the split-level brick home early Monday. Murray's father, Ronald S. · . Murray, is chief executive of the Rocky Mountain Multiple Sclerosis Center in Englewood. Matthew Murray lived there along with a brother, Christopher, 21, a student at Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, Okla. A neighbor, Cody Askeland, 19, said the brothers were home-schooled, describing the whole family as "very, very religious." .

Refreshments, 7 p.m. . RACINE - Randy Scott Smith of Langsville has been elected and installed as Master of Pomeroy/Racine Masonic Lodge No. 164. Smith was installed by David Fox, Past Di strict Deputy Grand Master,and long · time secretary of the Pomeroy/Racine Lodge. This annual installation of officers was held on Dec. 2, at the Lodge i1,1 Racine . In hi s position as Master, Smith is the presiding officer and head ofthe Lodge.

RELIGIOUS ATIACKS HAD BEEN TIIROWN OUT OF MISSIONARY G SCHOOL, POUCE SAY BY JUDITH KOHLER ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER < COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. The gunman believed to have killed four people at a megachurch and a nussionary training school had been thrown out of the school a few years ago and had been sending it hate mail, police said in court papers Monday. The gunman was identified as Matthew Murray, 24, who was home-schooled in what a friend said was a deeply religious Christian household. Murray 's father is a neurologist and a leading multiple-sclerosis researcher. · Five people - including Murray - were killed, and five others wounded Sunday in the two eruptions of violence 12 hours and 65 miles apart. The first attack took place at Youth With a Mission, a training center for missionaries in .the Denver suburb of Arvada; the other occurred at the New Life Church in Colorado Springs, where Murray was shot to death by a security guard. The training center maintains an office at the I 0,000member church. "Through both investigations it has been determined that most likely the suspect in both shootings are one in the saine," police said in court papers. Colorado Springs pol ice said the "common denominator in both locations" was Youih With a Mission. "It appears that the suspect had been kicked out of the program three years prior and during the past few weeks had sent differe nt forms of hate mail to. tl)e . AP plloto his victims. But the two people killed at the church sisters Stephanie and Rachael Works, ages 18 and 16 - frequented the training center, their uncle Mark Schaepe of Lincoln, Neb., . told The Gazette of Colorado Springs.

Matthew Murray lived there along with a brother, Christopher, 21, a student at Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, Okla.

(Cisneros, ·who later pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor, was eventually pardoned by Clinton.)

Five years ago: The United States let an intercepted shipment of Nonh Korean missiles proceed to the Persian Gulf country of Yeme11 a day after the vessel was detained.

Appreciating the from encouragement America's lawyers, themessage· from those on the fronl line said: "What Pakistan faces today is th~ subordination of every indepenuent organ of state to unchecked and unaccountable military executive power." · This heartening bonding of defenders of the rule ·of law also made me realize that there is an important lesson for what American lawyers can do for restoring accountability at home from an administration -that, with regard to our Constitution , has been acting as if the president, as commander in chief, has certain military powers i n dealing with terrorism to revise the Constitution all by himself. Many American lawyers and law professors have spoken and written about the consequences to our rule of. law when both the Republican and now the Demo cra ti c- co n tro 11 e d Congress fail to uphold the separation of powers. One of many examples: President Bush has given the CIA extraLegal authority to operate secret prisons and conduc1 kidnapping "renditions" that allow the enemy and even some of our friends to mock our pride in being a global model of constitutional democracy. There has been no investigation by Congress, even with its subpoena pow«rs. Yet. this weakening by the administration of the .very structure of our founding document (along with our individual liberties in the Bill of Rights as we become a surveillance nation) is not an issue among !\lOSt prospective voters in the presidential election, as is evidenced by the indifference to it by most of the candidates. Even Joe Biden, whose knowledge of the Constitution and proposed legislation to repair it makes him an exceptionally qualified candidate, does not cite it nearly enough on the stump. By contrast, during the Vietnam War, .the increasing controversy about the lack of debate among the general public was accelerated when t;ollege professors and students held, teach-ins on campuses. Supporters of the war had counter-sessions. and the public got involved uritil Congress felt the impact. And right now. having admimbly instructed the citize,nry here about the breakdown of law in Pakistan, American lawyers on the streets could be a valuable instructive force about our breakdown of law as the presidential elections ncar by having Sil-ins, including debates, not only at colleges bur also at community centers, on television and the Interne! (and why not on YouTube?). The ·homicidal lhreat of terrorism against American targets, . including people , will not abate once we have a new administration. Nor will the continuing threat from within to our institutions and values if the strong precedents for unitary execiJtive power set by Bush and Cheney are adopted by the next .president, and Congress accedes to them. With Rudy Giuliani in the Oval Office, for instance, unaccountable executive power might well increase. I am not at all confident that any of the other front-runners in either political party are eager to let go of the expanded authority bequeathed to the next president by Ge9rge W. Bush. And the John G. Roberts. Jr.-Samuel A. Alito, Jr. Supreme Court - unless it is suddenly convened to an "originalism" based on the clear statement of separatiqn of powers in the Constitution - may not be a dependable shield against a sincere bur misguided commander in chief convinced he or she has no time to deal wilh delaying judicial supervision. American lawyers taking to the streets, rallying the citizenry to support the rule of law, could convince the presidential candidates and the next Congress to prevent the terrorists from using fear to change who we are as Americans. · (Nat Hentoff is a nationally i-eno1y11ed authority on the First Amendment and tire Bill n( Rights and a11tlror of many bdok.s, including "The War 011 rhe Bill of Rights arzd the Gathering Resistance" (Seven Stories Press, 2004 ).) 2007 Obituaries www.mydailysentinel.com The Daily- Sentinel • Page A5 • Dinner theater ..

Appreciating the from encouragement America's lawyers, themessage· from those on the fronl line said: "What Pakistan faces today is th~ subordination of every indepenuent organ of state to unchecked and unaccountable military executive power." · This heartening bonding of defenders of the rule ·of law also made me realize that there is an important lesson for what American lawyers can do for restoring accountability at home from an administration -that, with regard to our Constitution , has been acting as if the president, as commander in chief, has certain military powers i n dealing with terrorism to revise the Constitution all by himself. Many American lawyers and law professors have spoken and written about the consequences to our rule of. law when both the Republican and now the Demo cra ti c- co n tro 11 e d Congress fail to uphold the separation of powers. One of many examples: President Bush has given the CIA extraLegal authority to operate secret prisons and conduc1 kidnapping "renditions" that allow the enemy and even some of our friends to mock our pride in being a global model of constitutional democracy. There has been no investigation by Congress, even with its subpoena pow«rs. Yet. this weakening by the administration of the .very structure of our founding document (along with our individual liberties in the Bill of Rights as we become a surveillance nation) is not an issue among !\lOSt prospective voters in the presidential election, as is evidenced by the indifference to it by most of the candidates. Even Joe Biden, whose knowledge of the Constitution and proposed legislation to repair it makes him an exceptionally qualified candidate, does not cite it nearly enough on the stump. By contrast, during the Vietnam War, .the increasing controversy about the lack of debate among the general public was accelerated when t;ollege professors and students held, teach-ins on campuses. Supporters of the war had counter-sessions. and the public got involved uritil Congress felt the impact. And right now. having admimbly instructed the citize,nry here about the breakdown of law in Pakistan, American lawyers on the streets could be a valuable instructive force about our breakdown of law as the presidential elections ncar by having Sil-ins, including debates, not only at colleges bur also at community centers, on television and the Interne! (and why not on YouTube?). The ·homicidal lhreat of terrorism against American targets, . including people , will not abate once we have a new administration. Nor will the continuing threat from within to our institutions and values if the strong precedents for unitary execiJtive power set by Bush and Cheney are adopted by the next .president, and Congress accedes to them. With Rudy Giuliani in the Oval Office, for instance, unaccountable executive power might well increase. I am not at all confident that any of the other front-runners in either political party are eager to let go of the expanded authority bequeathed to the next president by Ge9rge W. Bush. And the John G. Roberts. Jr.-Samuel A. Alito, Jr. Supreme Court - unless it is suddenly convened to an "originalism" based on the clear statement of separatiqn of powers in the Constitution - may not be a dependable shield against a sincere bur misguided commander in chief convinced he or she has no time to deal wilh delaying judicial supervision. American lawyers taking to the streets, rallying the citizenry to support the rule of law, could convince the presidential candidates and the next Congress to prevent the terrorists from using fear to change who we are as Americans. · (Nat Hentoff is a nationally i-eno1y11ed authority on the First Amendment and tire Bill n( Rights and a11tlror of many bdok.s, including "The War 011 rhe Bill of Rights arzd the Gathering Resistance" (Seven Stories Press, 2004 ).) 2007 Obituaries www.mydailysentinel.com The Daily- Sentinel • Page A5 • Dinner theater ..

Evan Turner scored 13 points and made several big plays down the stretch in his first collegiate start to lead Ohio State past the Eagles 47-39 on Monday night. . Coppin State, however, dictated the style of play. The Eagles patiently 'worked the ball before taking shots, exasperating the Buckeyes who would have preferred to get out and run. Not until the fina l 5 minutes did the Buckeyes finally pull away. The 39 points was the fewest given up by Ohio State since a I 09-38 win over Delaware on Jan. II , 1960.

GAHS also forced 28 turnovers during the win and made more thah half (17) of its 30 free throw attempts.

GAHS held a 30-20 rebounding edge Saints fromPageBl at least 75 yards, including a 99-yarder. He should've had a fourth TD pass, but Eric Johnson dropped a throw in the back of the end zone with no one around. "Throughout this season, we have shown signs of greatness," Brees said. "We had to start some drives deep in our own territory. but we stuck with it. We had to earn every one." The Saints vowed not to play timid after botching a trick play late in their game against the Bucs, who recovered and drove for the winning touchdown with 17 seconds remaining to take firm control of the NFC South.

Turnovers continued to plague Southern's cause with 35 for the ga me. Turn-and-throw appeared to be the Southern game plan much to the chagrin of Southern Coach Alan Crisp. Still, Southern man· aged to stay within striking distance. River Valley pl y played hard anrl 11 , k ! . very well. n _.J ph) sicall) handled Soul h~ 111 throughout the game . In the ·end Southern showed signs of fati ~ ue, much of which was attnbuted to the RV strel)gth. On the bright side of things, Coach Alan Crisp found a silver lining to the Tornado storm. Southern had 39 rebounds for the game, its best effort of the year. In the second period Carter laced the nets for eight points in leading River Valley to a 26-14 lead at the half. By halftime. nearly every Raider saw action. Shooting ' percentages dropped a good deal in the second half.

Gary Stanley @ 740-742'-2293 One of the most popular and fun bridge books of all time is "Right Through !he Pack" by Robert Oarvas and Norman Hart. There are 52 chapters, in which each card of tl")e deck describes a deal. Now Julian Pottage has emulafed that work ,· but produced twice !he value because each card tells two tales. So the reader gets double the tun from " Ba~ Through the Pack· (Vivisphere Publishing). How will the diamond ace play a pivotal part in this deal? West passed, hoping to.use the Unusual No-Trump on the second round to show his minor two-suiter. East opened lour hearts because he judged that a slam Was unlikely opposite a passed partner South'S overcall was debatable. Four spades could have been a phantom sacrifice, turning a plus score into a minus - and maybe a big minus if West had a spade stack West led his singleton heart. Declarer won with his ace, cashed !he spade ace, . and took dUmmy's top clubs, discarding his last heart. Then he ruHed dummy's heart nine in his hand and led a low dia· mond. West paused. To defeat the contract it seemed that they needed to take one spade and fhree diamonds. That meant assigning South seven spades. He was also known to have sfarted with fwo hearts and one club. So he had three diamonds, and Easf had a singleton. If Easf had a low singleton, the contract was unbeatable. West could win wifh his diamond jack and .play a club, buf declarer would ruff and exit with a trump, end· playtng East West, therefore, put up his diamond ace to swallow his partner's king, a classic C roc~ife Coup.

Gary Stanley @ 740-742'-2293 One of the most popular and fun bridge books of all time is "Right Through !he Pack" by Robert Oarvas and Norman Hart. There are 52 chapters, in which each card of tl")e deck describes a deal. Now Julian Pottage has emulafed that work ,· but produced twice !he value because each card tells two tales. So the reader gets double the tun from " Ba~ Through the Pack· (Vivisphere Publishing). How will the diamond ace play a pivotal part in this deal? West passed, hoping to.use the Unusual No-Trump on the second round to show his minor two-suiter. East opened lour hearts because he judged that a slam Was unlikely opposite a passed partner South'S overcall was debatable. Four spades could have been a phantom sacrifice, turning a plus score into a minus - and maybe a big minus if West had a spade stack West led his singleton heart. Declarer won with his ace, cashed !he spade ace, . and took dUmmy's top clubs, discarding his last heart. Then he ruHed dummy's heart nine in his hand and led a low dia· mond. West paused. To defeat the contract it seemed that they needed to take one spade and fhree diamonds. That meant assigning South seven spades. He was also known to have sfarted with fwo hearts and one club. So he had three diamonds, and Easf had a singleton. If Easf had a low singleton, the contract was unbeatable. West could win wifh his diamond jack and .play a club, buf declarer would ruff and exit with a trump, end· playtng East West, therefore, put up his diamond ace to swallow his partner's king, a classic C roc~ife Coup.
