See Page 81 BY BRIAN J, REm BREEOOMYDAILYSENTINEL.COM MIDDLEPORT- A consultant could be hired to research rights of way and complete title work along the path of a proposed multi-purpose trail in Middleport early next year. Meanwhile, the Middleport Developm¢nt Group will likely seek additiol}al funding through the Ohio Department · of Transportation for the project, and seek local funding for a needed match. ODOT will administer a $200,000 federal appropriation approyed in October for the project, and will . complete as much of the preliminary project work as possible, Debbie Fought of ODOT's planning department said. She said a contract for a consultant to complete research into rights of way necessary to the project could be awarded early in the new year. The process will involve locating the likely path for the project, identifying owners and purchasing or otherwise securing the right of way for construction. Fought said the path could be planned to take in as little private property as possible to keep costs down. Tim ·and Edie King of Middleport have spearheaded efforts to develop the multi-purpose trail along the Ohio River, to include portions of downtown Middleport and an area around Ohio 7. The twomile trail would be promoted as a tourist attraction, and would be available for use as a walking trail and a bicycle path. The $200,000 federal appropriation. 'ecured by U.S . Rep.

POMEROY - Although the construction crew at the new Pomeroy-Mason Bridge site has been reduced in anticipation of the equipment that will eventually bridge the two towers, excavation work at the Pomeroy approach continues in anticipation of the ·decorative retaining wall. So far 285,000 cubic yards of earth have been moved at the site. The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) anticipates that when all is said and done at the approach 330,000 cubic yards of earth will have been moved to make way for not only the approach but the decorative retain-· ing wall. It may be at least a few more months before the approach is finished and stabilized according to ODOT's Public Information Officer for District 10 Stephanie Filson. Filson added when the · wall goes up it will be 735 feet long and will range in height as the structure tapers from the Pomeroy end downwards towards the Middleport end. Filson said the wall's smallest end which will be facing toward · Middleport and will be five feet'tall. At the.wall's high point, which will be the end ·closest to Pomeroy, it will rise to 37 feet tall. Etched into the stone wall will be glimpses of life along the river in Meigs County and will include the designs of a sternwheeler, the · Meigs County Courthouse, trees and children at play. As for those passing· motorists who've wondered why the final "cap" of concrete hasn't been placed on the Ohio tower yet Filson said it has_n't been poured because at this time it isn't ne<:essary to the bridge construction ·and provides an access point for inspection. "The Ohio tower work is completed ·except for that final cap which is a nonstructural item that the bridge construction is not contingent on," Filson said. "When we do place the final cap on the tower we'll still have an access· point for inspection but at this time the cap is not critical for the other work going on." Filson said despite ·a reduced crew on the actual bridge site work. remains ongoing on both sides of the river while ODOT waits on the newly · designed form traveler 'apparatus to arrive to assist work crews in bridging the West Virginia and Ohio spans. The form traveler is expected to arrive possibly in the spring. . snow .. The first snow of the year is always the prettiest, and Meigs County saw its first snowfall on Thursday morning. While the afternoon's sunshine melted the snow away, yesterday's weather is undoubtedly a sign of things to come- and. per· haps, a motivation to begin or finish the Christmas shopping. The half-inch of snow covered cars and sidewalks in Pomeroy, as well as the wreaths and holiday banners placed on village streetlights. Snow was expected to continue overnight before disappearing from the area on Friday morning. lktan J.

James M. Gavin Power Plant. The suit filed by Citizens Against Pollulion, a Cheshire-area organization formed out of concern over acidic "plumes" created by . Gavin's selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system, went to trial in U.S. District Court for the Southern in District of Ohio September. After two days of testimony, attorneys for both sides were instructed by the court to reach a settlement, whose details were announced Thursday. "We're pleased to have reached a settlement 'th<lt brings this lawsuit to an end and recognizes the current operating paramaters of the plant ," said Nick Akim , executive vice presidentgeneration for AEP. "This is a significant victory for Ohio residents in the battle for clean air."' said Jim Hecker, environmental enforcement di'N£tor for Washington-based Trial Lawyers for Public Justice, co-counsel for the citizens group. Under the settlement. Gavin units will .maintain sulfuric acid emissions at or below 14 parts per million (ppm) during normal plant operation when the SCR is in use. The plant will limit emissions at or below 22 ppm when SCR is not in use. SCR reduces nitrogen oxide emissions contributing to the formation of urban ozone. or "smog." The system is used at Gav\n during the ozone sea,on of May I through Sept. 30. AEP will also conduct periodic te,ting of ,u]furic acid emissions levels and monitor Gavin's 'ulfuric acid emis~ions mitigation system during te~ting . The re~ulh will be reported to CAP\ coun,el. • The settleri1ent doesn't include a civil or financial penalty for exceeding the agreed"to levels. If sulfuric acid emis,\ons exceed tho'e levels. AEP will \ubmit required notification to federal, state and local emergency response agencres . SCR was introdticed at Gavin in 200 I, but the system unexpectedly created the "plumes" that 'ettled on Cheshire during still and hot summer days, prompting numerous health complaints from village residents.

A3 WORSIHP GOD THIS WEEK A Hunger For More "The end of all things is near. You must be self-controlled and alert, to be able to pray. Above· everything, love one another earnestly, because love covers over many sins. Open your homes to each other with()Ut complaining. Each one, as a good manager of God's different gifts, must use for the good of others the special . gift he has received .from God ... so that in all things praise may be given to God through Jesus Christ, to whom belong glory and power forever and ever. Amen." (I Peter 4.7-11, GNT) If we !mew the end of the world was coming tomorrow, how would we live today? Would it make any difference? Well, in his Second Epistle to believers St. Peter says quite frankly, "the end of all things is at hand." (And in truth, by the way, we have been living in the :·Jast days" since the first advent of Christ. This whole period of time is referred to as the "last days.") And he goes on to give some practical advice on how to . live, giving basically three general directives: • Be self-controlled and alert. • Maintain constant love. • Be hospitable and serve. First, he encourages discipline and vigilance. Why? "To be able to pray." In other words, it is important to be seriou.s and disciplined because prayer is tmportant.

The most controversial figure in Middleport history. What is Rusty's crime? Was he caught selling crack cocaine? Or is he just too artsy for the shoppers of Middleport? This has to be the biggest issue Middleport has ever faced. Never mind the fact that the police department faces a deficit or that Middleport's economy is slightly behind. The real issue iri Middleport is a piece of scrap iron just wanting to wish ·passersby a warm and happy holiday season. Joe Roush Pomeroy LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Letters to the editor are welcome.

I don't think there would have been a wrong decisi6n, because of the disparity in all the viewpoints. So we just deci<!ed to go younger." The 27-year-old Isaac, meanwhile, turned to a volume of history titled "The Life and Times of Jesus Messiah" for clues into his character's background. Joseph is a Jewish carpenter betrothed to a girl who says an angel has told her she will give birth to the Son of God. What does that mean? Will people in Nazareth stone her? Will Mary die while giving birth? Will this be a normal child? Will · legions of angels show up and begin an apocalyptic war with !he Romans? It's crucial to remember that an angel visited Mary, while Joseph had a dream . reassuring him that she was telling the truth. It's safe to assume that most men when asked to risk life, limb and reputation - would prefer to talk to an angel face to face, rather than rely . on a mere dream, said Isaac. "Just because ·God came to him in a dream didn't mean that he wasn't thinking, 'I hope. that I didn't make that up. I hope that I h(lard God correctly,"' he www.mydailysentinel.com 2006 Obituaries said. "I think that he constantly, even up until the end, is grabbling with his feelings." The whole story changes if Joseph rebels, noted Isaac, who is Guatemalan by birth but grew up in a multiethnic evangelical Protestant family in Miami. It's easy to assume that God would have found some other way. But someone had to claim the responsibility of protecting Mary and helping raise Jesus . . Joseph is a pivotal figure, yet a humble saint who rarely receives much attention. · "There is this very inter, esting psychological char·acter ·study here," noted Isaac. "How does a man share the woinan he loves with God? That's what he has to do. He loves GOd with all of his heart and he loves this woman, selflessly.... He can't just live in this little house that he's building in Nazareth. He has to, literally, share this woman. How do you wrap your mind around that as a man?"

Decision time With the Congressional elections behind us, and the Baker-Hamilton commission's report publi~d at last, the stage would now seem set for · a major national debate on the central question: Should the United Stiltes continue to seek "victory" in Iraq· (however that is defined), or withdraw its forces from that country and leave it to whatever its fate may be? President Bush, who (it must always be remembered) still has two m,ore years in ·office and will continue to be commander in chief of the armed forces , stands firmly for ,,the first option. Various critics, most notably a number of Democratic members of Congress li.ke John Murtha, have adopted what certainly sounds very much like ·the second. In .between stands a huge segment of public and politi- · cal .opinion that actively dislikes the way the war has been prosecuted to date but is certainly not committed to cutting and running . Is there any hope for a compromise? The trouble is thai any . compromise will sooner or laler favor one or. the other of the two polar p<}sitions. If the compromise permits William Rusher the United States to continue to m'aintain a significant military presence in Iraq and pursue the goal of prevailing there, it will !fecision in amount .to support of the · Bush option. If, on the other hand, it furthers the .goal of sooner or later abandoning Iraq , it w.ill constitute a de facto endorsement of the Murtha option. What are the Democrats, as a Whole, willing to accept? Most of them certainly don't want to see the Middle Easl collapse into chaos, with all that would mean for the United States, Europe, and the world, let alone a future Democratic president. There is likely, therefore, to be considerable debate within the Democratic Party ·_· quite possibly continuing into the 2008 prcsidenlial contest over how far to compromise with Bush. As for · the American a ' . people, don't believe for a moment that amajority of them favor ·. cutting and running. Their trouble is that they dislike the way things have been going in Iraq for the last three years (and who can blame them?). If this is the best we can do, they seem to be thinking, then it might be better to stop doing it. At the same time, they know very well that our enemies in the Middle East are serious and highly dangerous, and are not likely to stop their jihad against the West, and especially the United States; just because we settle for defeat in Iraq. A majority of the public, therefore, is currently unhappy but undecided. We are probably, therefore, entering a period in which the real debate will be over whether to adopt "compromise" policies that, in the long run, favor Bush's insistence on "victory," or some alternative closer to the proposals for a· witlldrawal (however much these may be sugarcoated as demands for "redeployment"). To prevail, Bush will certainly have to come up with some modifications , probably both diplomatic and mili tary, in his strategy; we now know that even for- Trail mer Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld conceded, in a recent memo, that the current strategy isn't working. , But various Democratic leaders, as. • the)( struggle to come up. with an acceptable alternative, will no doubt favor a spectrum of positions, Some much closer to Bush's than others. As for the American people as a whole, they will probably continue to issue contradictory signals about their desires, and reserve the right to change their minds (without admitting Jt) if what they support today turns out to be unpalatable tomorrow. It may well be, therefore, that the debate will grind on until whatever "compromise" measures we adopt have . their . inevitable effect - whatever that may be - on the situation on the ground, and the p1Jwer to make the ultimate decision, to stay or leave.• slips out of our hands.

On this date: In 1854, Pope Pius IX proclaimed the Catholic dogma of the Immaculate Conception, which holds that Mary, the mother of Jesus, was free of original sin from the moment of her own conception. · In 1863, President Lincoln announced his plan for the Reconstruction of the South. In 1914, "Watch Your Step," the first musical revue to feature a score composed entirely by Irving Berlin, opened in New York. · In 1941 , the United States entered World War II as Congress declared war against Japan, a day after the attack on Pearl Harbor. In 1949, the Chinese Nationalist government moved from the Chinese mainland to FOJmosa as the Communists pressed their attacks. In 1986, House Democrats selected majority leader Jim Wright to be the chamber's 48th speaker, succeeding Thomas P. "lip" O'Neill. . Thought for Today: "The unknown is what it is.

Q: Can I deduct contri.butions toforeign chari~ ties? A: Federal law generally requires that, for a charitable contribution to be deductible, the receiving organization must have been created or organized under the laws of one of the states or possessions of the United States.

Bush and Blair were deeply skeptical of the com· mission 's call for direct engagement with Iran and Syria. Bush said a proposed international conference to help Iraq was an interesting idea but Iran and Syria "shouldn't bother to show up" unless they stop fund· ing terrorists. Blair said Iran had been a troublemaker particularly in southern Iraq. "It's been basically arming, financing, supporting terrorism," he said. Bush ruled out talks with Iran unless it steps away from a suspected nuclear weapons program by suspending uranium enrich· ment. He accused Syria of undermining the fragile government of Lebanese Prime Minister Fuad Saniora. Beyond that, Bush said, Syria should "stop allowing money and arms to cross your border into Iraq. Don 't provide safe haven ·for terrori st groups." Bush was lukewarm about the commission's call for withdrawal of all combat brigades by 2008 as the role of U.S. troops shifts .from combat to training Iraqi soldiers and police. "I've always said we'd like our troops out as fast as possible," the president said. He said any troop plans have to be "flexible and realistic" and depend on conditions on the ground. He said he would be guided by the recommendations of military commanders "based upon whether or not we're achieving our stated objective." Bush was unwavering about lr'aq .

PHOENIX - Police said ·Thursday· they have caught )he Baseline Killer, the gun· man responsible for nine ·slayings that spread terror across the Phoenix area for nearly a year. Police Chief Jack Harris said investigators are recommending that Mark Goudeau, ·a 42-year-old construction worker who has been in jail since September, ~ char~ed ' with 71 counts, includmg 11ine murders - most of . them random shootings com. mitted on the street at night. Goudeau was arrested three months ago in two sexual assaults that were attributed to the Baseline Killer. But at the time, police stopped shon of pro· . nouncing him the Baseline · Killer while they built a case against the ex-convict. · · Cmdr. Joe Klima, who oversaw the investigation, said investigators have col· · lected forensic evidence including DNA and ballis· :tics - and other evidence · implicating Goudeau. He would not elaborate. . "All of ihis evidenee .·points to Mark Goudeau as the one who committed these crimes," Klima said. Prosecutor Andrew Thomas said his office would draw up the charges. " I still believe this man should never again be able to : walk the streets of thi s Valley : or anywhere else in free· · dom," Thomas said. " I'm ; going to do everything within : my lawful authority to make : sure that that is the outcome." · Calls to Goudeau's attor· : ney, Corwin Townsend, were . not immediately returned. : The Baseline Killer case ; originally included 23 :shootings. rapes and rob· . beries that left eight people ~ dead between August 2005 •; and June. The dead, seven : of them women, ranged in • age from 19 to 39. Most : were killed going abo ut : their daily activities, such ~ as leaving work, washing a car or waitin~ at a bus stop . A ninth killing WaS not publicly revealed until Thursday. The victim, Sophia Nunez, 37, was fqund dead in her Phoenix home by her 8-year-old spn · in April. Other cases were dropped from the investigac tion, leaving a total of 19 in which Goudeau is a suspect. "It's just a shock when you lose a child. Sophia was 37 , but she's still my child," Nunez's mother, Maria, said Thursday. Police have said the·killer usually struck at night and wore disguises, which included a wig of dreadlocks and a fisherman's hat. The name Baseline Killer came from. the Phoenix street where some of the earliest crimes were comniitted. Police said they followed up on 8,000 leads to get to this point. About half of the Baseline Killer attacks occurred within three miles of the Phoenix home Goudeau shared with his wife. One woman was killed just · around the corner. Goudeau served 13 112 years in prison for three aggravated assaults, armed robbery ·and kidnapping before being paroled in 2004. He once blamed his hi story of violence on a weakness for crack. ' After his arrest, Goudeau's wife, Wendy Carr, lashed out at police and the mayor for _their handling of the case, saying accusations "have been spilled into the streets with complete disregard for the truth." The Baseline Killer was one of two serial killer cases that spread fear across the Phoenix area recently. In August, police arrested two roommates in what was · dubbed the Serial Shooter case. \he two men are accused of driving around the city and its suburbs at night, firing at people ran· domly from a car. Seven people were killed. The defendants are await· ·ing trial. BY DAVID STRINGER ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER LONDON - A former KGB agent was buried in a rain-swept London ceme· tery Thursday, his grave sur· rounded by Russian emigres and his body sealed in a cof· fin to prevent further conta· mination by the radioactive substance that killed him. But · the drama of Alexander Litvinenko 's death was not over. Whoever dosed him with poloniurn210 appears to have left a lengthening trail of victims. Seven employees at a London hotel wnere Litvinenko met businessman Dmitry Kovtun the day he fell ill have tested positive for low levels of polonium-210, Britain's Health Protection Agency said Thursday. Russian officials said Kovtun has developed an illness con· nected with polonium-210. The seven employees are not likely to suffer short term health problems, a Health Protection official told BBC Television, but the poison could cause "a very slight increase" in their risk of health problems over the long term. The agency said the seven were working' · at the Millennium Hotel's wood· paneled Pine Bar on Nov. I, the day Litvinenko became sick. He died Nov. 23. . Among the others conta· minated by the poison is Mario Scaramella. an Italian security consultant working with .the Italian parliament who also met the Russian in L<1ndon Nov. I. Scaramella was found to have significant quantities of polonium -21 0 in his body and there are concerns for hi s health, but he has not developed symptoms of radiation poisoning. Marina Litvinenko. the agent's wife. also received a dose of the poison. but doc· tors say it was not enough to make her 'ick .

Ex-Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko, who died last month after being poisoned with a rare radioactive element, was to be buried Thursday in London -. as police continued an ~xhaustive international hunt for his killer. pay tribute to him Thursday in an isolated section of his· tori;: Highgate Cemetery. The former Soviet spy was buried near the grave of Karl Marx, the father of Communism . As cold rain splashed on Victorian-era tombs and mausoleums. Litvinenko's large dark oak cotl'in was lowered into a grave. His casket was sealed throu ghout the burial cere· mony, on the advice of Health Protection Agency. Officials said the contami· nated body posed no risks if buried. but wanted the family would have "to wait 22 years for the radioactive material to decay" if they wanted to ere· mate the remains. friend A lex Goldfarb said. At the cemetery. Lord John Rea: director of the Save Chechnya campaign. held up a picture of Russian journal· ist Anna Politkovskaya. a Kremlin critic and friend of Litvinenko who was gunned down in Moscow in October. Litvinenko was investigating her killing when he was poi· so ned. Boris Berezovsky, a Russian tycoon· and one of the Kremlin's most power· ful critics. also aqended. So did Akhmed Zakayev, an envoy from the Chechen separatist government. Zakayev consoled the for· mer agent's widow ·and his 12-year-old son, Anatoly. Even the funeral was tinged with controversy. · Litvinenko' s father said his son had converted to Islam before he died. but his fami ly asked for a non • denominational ceremony. Despite this, ari imam appeared uninvited and per· formed tites at the burial. Goldfarb said. " Unfortunately some peo· pie appeared and against the explicit wishes of the widow performed Muslim rites over the funeral ... let God be their judge." Goldfarb said. The burial followed a service at Regent 's Park Mmque , where traditional Islamic fun eral prayers were said. Litvinenko's father Walter and Zakayev · also mourned at the mosque. Some friends disputed the conversion claim - saying Litvinenko had merely expressed empathy with Chechen Muslims. But Vladimir Bukovsky, the former spy ' s friend and a fel. low ·critic of Russian President Vladimir Putin, said Litvinenko had asked his body eventually be moved to Chcchnya. "On his deathbed he asked to be buried when the war is over in C hec hen soil ," Bukovsky said. "He was a tierce defender of Chechnya and critic of the Kremlin." British and Russian investigators questioned Kovtun, the Russian 'businessman who is believed to have met whh Litvinenko the day he fell ill . Russia's lntcrfax reported · news agency Thursday that Kovtun had fallen into a coma after meeting with investigators but a Iawver mvol ved in the case denied that repon . �Page AS LOCAL-• STATE MusetJJD exhibit tor closing Dec. 19 The Qaily Sentinel Program, students must: • Reside in one of the 29 Appalachian counties in Ohio • Demonstrate financial need by filling out a FAFSA form • Have a FAFSAexpected family contribution number no more tha11 $8,000 • Be admitted to Ohio University before Feb. 23 • Have an ACT score of 17 or more • Rank in the top 40 percent of their graduating class • Be enrolled in college preparatory courses at their high school • Return their Appalachian Scholars Award Program packet and transcripts to Ohio University by Feb. 23 Students also are strongly encouraged to complete th~ FAFSA application by the Feb. 15 priority date.

Patient offense and solid defense were the key ingredients to the Lady Eagle success as first-year head man ·Dave Weber's construction crew meandered to a 23-6 halftime advantage. The second half was fairly even as Eastern continued to be laid back on offense. The Eagle offense also met somewhat of a stonewall from the Southern defense as Eastern edged Southern 12-9 in second half scoring. Southern did a decent job of contammg one of the league's best post players, Erin Weber, who was held to just 10 points on the night. Southern's good defense on the inside gave up a vulnerable area around the perimeter where Jenna Hupp nailed three three-pointers.' Eastern's solid shooting and a good inside-outside combination proved to be the medicine the Eagles needed. Meanwhile, Eastern put up a good defensive front that was in-part a fiber in Southern's extremely poor shooting. · An upbeat defense, additionally swiped several Southern passes and took away several Tornado scoring opportunities. Southern shot 7-of-28 (25 percent) for the game, but had 24 turnovers, including eight in the first period.

Willie Parker is much different, and he finds himself in their record book · because of it. Parker, a speed back in an offense built around power, broke the Steelers' singlegame rushing record with 223 yards - a ~arne better than either Hams or Bettis enjoyed - and Pittsburgh excelled as usual in cold weather by roughing up the offense-less Cleveland Browns 27-7 Thursday night. Parker, the ftrst player in Steelers history to have two 200~yard games in a season, "Frenchy" broke John Fuqua's record of 218 yards agamst Philadelphia in 1970, two years before Fuqua was the intended receiver on Harris' famous Immaculate Reception against Oakland. "! don't know too much about him, though Coach (Dick) Hoak has told me all about him," said Parker, referring to the running backs coach who coached both backs. "This (record) was nice, but all those accolades .come - and then they go. The best thmg was the win." Parker, the fastest running back in Steelers history and the first since Bettis in 200001 with consecutive 1,000 yards, broke Fuqua's record early in · the fpurth quarter and might have approached 300 yards if the game had been closer. Parker wasn't drafted out of North Carolina in 2004 and originally thought he'd be a special teams player with Pittsburgh. "They've never had a · speed back, they've always · had power backs so I thought I'd have to make a niche on special teams," Parker said .. "Then I said, 'Naw, I'm going to 'keep going at it, keep hard at it and be a running back; just be that every down back."' The Steelers ran the ball so well, tackle Marvel Smith said, the Browns' defensive players were yelling at each other in the huddle. "There's no better feeling than that, when they know you're going to run it and they still can't stop it," Smith said. "We rammed it down their throats." The Steelers (6-7) withstood temperatures in the teens, a wind chill that was below zero in the second half and an occasional snow flake to win their seventh in a row against their Rust Belt rival, following up a 41-0 rout in Cleveland last December and a 24-20 comeback victory last month in Cleveland. Pittsburgh is one of the NFL's best clubs when the weather gets bad and the games . usually are more important, going 21-6 past . Dec. 1 since 2001. • For the Browns (4-9), this time of the year simply is a case of going from bad to worse. Assured now of their fourth consecutive losing season, they are 2-11 in December the last three seasons. "It was cold, but both~ teams have to play in it and they caught and ran the ball fine," Browns tight end Steve Heiden said. Parker went over the 1,000-yard mark for the sec· ond season in a row on Pittsburgh's opening drive lind' kept on going, following up his 213-yardgame against New Orleans on Nov. 12.

While most team executives packed up and left, the Giants kept trying to re-sign the 42-year-old sluggt;r. Bonds has 734 home runs and is 22 from breaking Hank Aaron's career record. Bonds and the Giants wound up with a deal that includes four performance bonuses that could make it worth a total of $20 million , a person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press, speaking on condition of anonymity because there had been no oft)cial announcement. Bonds has played 14 seasons for the Giants and is coming off a · $90 million, five-year contract. He is seven-time NL MVP and despite steroids allegations, is a fan favorite in the Bay Area. There wasn't a lot of other action before the meetings finislfed up. Free-agent ace Barry Zito wasn't close to signing and Manny Ramirez remained with the Boston Red Sox. Kansas City made a J:>ig • AP photo San Francisco Giants' Barry Bonds sits in the dugout and watches the Giants play the Los Angeles Dodgers during the third Inning of their baseball game in San Francisco in this Sept. 30 photo. move on the final day, agreeing to a $55 million, fiveyear contract with right -hander Gil Meche. Also, backup first baseman Daryle Ward reached a preliminary agreement with the Chicago Cubs on a $1.05 million, one-year deal and the Atlanta Braves completed their deal to acquire reliever Rafael Soriano from the Seattle Mariners for pitcher Horacia Ramirez. Houston and the White Sox talked about a trade that would send Jon Garland to the Astros for outfielder Willy Taveras, pitcher Taylor B\lcttholz and a prospect. But the deal · wasn't announced, perhaps because Chicago didn't like Buchholz's medical reports. "It was probably more laying the ~roundwork than in the past,· Toronto Blue Jays general manager J.P. Ricciardi said. "I think you'll see more things happen in the next few weeks. I think there's a lot of free agents falling in place. I think once those have fallen in place, I • • think guys will start working some other stuff." At the podium in the Dolphin hotel, only one trade was announced: The White Sox sent starter Freddy Garda to Philadelphia on Wednesday night for pitching prospects Gavin Floyd and Gio Gonzalez. In the suites upstairs, many swaps were discussed. "l think you're going to see in the next two weeks, there's ¥,oing to be a wave of moves,' New York Mets general manager Oinar Minaya said. "Usually, my experience is a domino effect. Once guys start getting off the board, all the back and forth goes out the window and people say, 'Hey, let's get a deal done.' The agents don't want to get shut out and the teams don't want to get shut out.. So I · expect here in the next two weeks there's gai ng to be a lot of action. Free agents and signings. Everybody seems to be hesitant to do something." . Also Thursday, two free agents accepted ·salary arbitration offers from their for. mer teams before a midnight deadline: infielders Tony Graffanino of Milwaukee and Todd Walker of San Diego. A pair of free-agent relievers seemed to be moving toward decisions: Eric Gagne and Octavia DoteL Cincinnati liked Gagne and Boston was interested in Dote!. As team officials headed home, several signings were in various stages of working their way toward final agreements: outfielder J.D. Drew and shortstop Julio Lugo (Boston), pitcher Jason Schmid! and outfielder Luis Gonzalez (Los Angeles .Dodgers), pitcher Greg Maddux (San Diego) and pitcher Vicente Padilla (Texas). Cubs general manager Jim Hendry remained behind, hospitalized following an I Friday, December 8, 2006 2006 angioplasty. Hendry had ignored several pleas from manager Lou Piniella and special assistant Gary Hughes to see a doctor earlier in the week. Team physician Stephen Adams sent the 51-year-old GM to an Orlando-area hospital for tests and Piniella drove Hendry there. But Hendry kept closing deals, finishing up a $40 million, four-year agreement with pitcher Ted Lilly on Wednesday night from the hospital. . "Piniella . and myself, we were the first of many," Hughes said. "It .took him a while to get to the hospital because he thought it was more important to worry about the Rule 5 draft, Lilly, whatever. His priorities were skewed." · In Thursday's draft of players off Triple-A rosters, troubled outfielder Josh · Hamilton wound up with Cincinnati. After the Cubs plucked the 25-year-old Hamilton from Tampa Bay, they sent him to the Reds for cash. Hamilton was the overall No. I pick in the 1999 teur draft.

This deal also requires shrewd spade·spot handling. How would you play in six spedes after West leads the diamond two? North's four cl ubs was a splinter bid, announcin g four-card spade support, the values for game, al'ld a singleton or votd 1n dubs. Soulh checlced !hal hts partner had two aces, then' bid six spades. It Is tempting to play a dub at trict<· two. But il you do that, East will take the trick and give his partner a diamond ruff. Instead, you should aim lor these 12 !ricks: lour spades, throe hearts. lour diamonds and a heart ruff in your hand. It trumps are 3·2, you can draw litem and cla1m. It they are 4·1, though, you \\ill need to be careful. Star! with dummy's spade ace. Now, If you think East has lour spades, ~ay a spade to your ~ng. But that diamond lead should make you wry suspicious. A defender \\ill not normally lead a sull bid by an opponent. It ts even less likely against a slam. The diamond two smens strongly of a singleton. Arid if It is, West wUI not have a singleton spad8. So, continue with dummy's spade queen and when· East discards, unblocK your nine. Then, play a heart to your ace, return a heart to dunimys queen. and ruff the ltea~ eight wilh your spade king. Now lead your carefully retained spade three (or tour) to dummy's eight, remove West's final trump, and claim, conceding one club trick at the end.
