Attendance<br />
similar to 2004<br />
By Pat Blair<br />
Senior staff reporter<br />
<strong>The</strong> 2005 <strong>Sheridan</strong> County Health<br />
Fair ranks as another success, with an<br />
estimated 5,000 people attending the<br />
event Saturday at <strong>Sheridan</strong> College’s<br />
Golden Dome, according to Wellness<br />
Coordinator Shannon Lassle.<br />
Lassle based the count on the number<br />
of blood-draw packets remaining to be<br />
picked up this morning. “We were pretty<br />
close in numbers to last year,” she said.<br />
Around 5,000 county residents had<br />
blood drawn in August at <strong>Sheridan</strong><br />
Memorial Hospital in preparation for the<br />
Health Fair. Blood taken is tested, and<br />
each individual can receive the results of<br />
his test at the Health Fair.<br />
As of this morning, Lassle said, packets<br />
that were not picked up at the Health<br />
Fair on Saturday amounted to 1,000 or<br />
fewer.<br />
“And a lot of people attended the<br />
Health Fair who didn’t have blood drawn<br />
this year,” she said. She added many of<br />
those individuals said they would have<br />
blood drawn for next year’s event.<br />

• Rita gathering strength; storm could become<br />
Category 1 hurricane as it crosses islands of Florida<br />
KEY WEST, Fla. (AP) — Officials ordered<br />
residents evacuated from the lower Florida Keys<br />
today as Tropical Storm Rita headed toward the<br />
island chain, threatening to grow into a hurricane<br />
with a potential 8-foot storm surge.<br />
<strong>The</strong> evacuation covered 40,000 people living<br />
from below Marathon to Key West. Visitors<br />
were ordered to clear out of the entire length of<br />
the low-lying Keys, which are connected by just<br />
one highway.<br />
<strong>The</strong> weather was clear this morning but<br />
expected to deteriorate through the day with the<br />
approach of Rita’s outermost bands of rain.<br />
Hurricane warnings were posted for the Keys<br />
and the storm’s eye was expected to pass<br />
between the islands and Cuba on Tuesday.<br />
Rita, which strengthened Sunday into a tropical<br />
storm, had sustained wind of 60 mph as of 8<br />
a.m., and could be a Category 1 hurricane by the<br />
time it passes the Keys, the National Hurricane<br />
Center said.<br />
By the weekend, computer models projected<br />
that it could be in the northwest Gulf of Mexico<br />
near Texas, but people in areas ravaged by<br />
Hurricane Katrina were warned it could veer in<br />
their direction instead. Katrina crossed South<br />
Florida into the Gulf last month, killing 11 people,<br />
before it turned northward to Louisiana and<br />
Mississippi.<br />
Key West streets were quiet this morning as<br />
Mike Pettengill, 54, packed his Harley-Davidson<br />
motorcycle. A resident of Stuart, he hoped to<br />
beat the rain and traffic heading north and wanted<br />
to be able to find gas before stations close or<br />
run dry.<br />
‘‘We walked by a bar (Sunday) and heard<br />
there was an evacuation. We were totally<br />
shocked. I couldn’t believe it. Where did it come<br />
from?’’ he said.<br />
Kelly Friend and two workers were boarding<br />
up her store in Key West, Audio Video in<br />

St. Peter’s shipping relief supplies to Houston<br />
From staff reports<br />
Final preparations are being made for a<br />
shipment of hurricane-relief supplies from<br />
St. Peter’s Episcopal Church to Houston to<br />
support evacuee families settling in that<br />
area.<br />
St. Peter’s is coordinating the communitywide<br />
effort, which is being supported by<br />
many schools as well as businesses and<br />
individuals.<br />
<strong>The</strong> shipment will be packed Tuesday<br />
for a Wednesday departure and will be<br />
delivered to Second Mile Mission Center in<br />
Houston on Thursday.<br />
Second Mile is working with <strong>The</strong><br />
United Way and <strong>The</strong> Red Cross to resettle<br />
families into permanent homes.<br />
“We realize that we could more easily<br />
have collected money and sent it down to<br />
Second Mile. But they are excited that<br />
Katrina’s<br />
lessons<br />
In the wake of the government’s<br />
response to Hurricane Katrina,<br />
officials are looking at ways to<br />
avoid mistakes in a future disaster.<br />
RESPONSE<br />
Complaints that<br />
the federal government<br />
was too slow to<br />
offer assistance to affected<br />
areas has prompted<br />
a review of how those<br />
requests are handled.<br />
wood: ‘‘Hey bartender 1 Rita on the rocks to<br />
go!’’<br />
‘‘Not that we’re afraid of the hurricane, but<br />
we want to protect our investment,’’ Friend said.<br />
‘‘Plus it gives us an excuse to take a day off and<br />
drink.’’<br />
Rita is the 17th named storm of the Atlantic<br />
hurricane season. That makes this season<br />
already the fourth busiest since record-keeping<br />
began in 1851. <strong>The</strong> record is 21 tropical storms<br />
in 1933.<br />
Six to 15 inches of rain was possible in the<br />
Keys, with 3 to 5 inches possible across southern<br />
Florida. A storm surge rising 6 to 8 feet<br />
above normal tide levels was predicted for the<br />
Keys.<br />
‘‘Right now the biggest concern is the<br />
Keys,’’ said Max Mayfield, director of the<br />
National Hurricane Center in Miami.<br />
COORDINATION<br />
First responders<br />
can become victims<br />
of the disaster themselves;<br />
a second wave<br />
of assistance should be<br />
dispatched sooner and<br />
with more urgency.<br />
PLANNING<br />
Officials are previewing<br />
plans and pledging<br />
more frequent and realistic<br />
evacuation drills; some<br />
are looking for ways to identify<br />
anyone likely to be bypassed<br />
in an evacuation.<br />
State’s<br />
county<br />
officials<br />
meet<br />
By Mark Heinz<br />
Staff reporter<br />
Possible state compensation for counties<br />
affected by coal-bed methane development<br />
and a discussion of the state’s<br />
methamphetamine problem will be<br />
among the topics<br />
considered<br />
during a gathering<br />
this week of<br />
county officials<br />
from across<br />
Wyoming.<br />
Because of<br />
the annual<br />
Wyoming<br />
Association of<br />
County<br />
Officials conference,<br />
there<br />
will be no meeting<br />
this week of<br />
the <strong>Sheridan</strong><br />
County Commission, said Commissioner<br />
Terry Cram.<br />
Instead, Cram, Commission<br />
Chairman Larry Durante and<br />
Commissioner Ky Dixon all plan to<br />
attend the conference in Gillette, Cram<br />
said.<br />
<strong>The</strong> commissioners will be there<br />
today, Tuesday and Wednesday, he said.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Sheridan</strong> County Commission<br />
will conduct its next regular meeting Oct.<br />
4.<br />
“It’s going to be interesting,” Cram<br />
said of the convention. “<strong>The</strong>re’s some<br />
proposals by the governor’s office to possibly<br />
get some impact money for the<br />
counties affected by CBM.<br />
“I think there’s about eight counties in<br />
question, and <strong>Sheridan</strong> is one of them.”<br />
Commissioners have long said that<br />
use of county roads by trucks and other<br />
heavy equipment involved in coal-bed<br />
methane exploration and drilling causes<br />
more wear and tear on roads and bridges<br />
than the county can afford.<br />
Katrina storm aftermath full of how-not-to lessons<br />
WASHINGTON (AP) — Katrina<br />
is what classrooms call a teachable<br />
moment. Everyone is picking through<br />
the mistakes from all levels of government<br />
for lessons that will spare more<br />
lives and property when disaster visits<br />
the country again.<br />
<strong>The</strong> needs in a nutshell: more,<br />
sooner, faster and, of course, better.<br />
More rescuers and equipment, sent<br />
out sooner. An earlier and no-nonsense<br />
evacuation. Faster decisions on<br />
asking for federal help, and sending it.<br />
And, this lesson: Do not forget<br />
<strong>The</strong> Rev.<br />
David Duprey<br />
St. Peter’s<br />
Episcopal<br />
Church<br />
the lessons of the past.<br />
President Bush was among those<br />
who did, accepting first-blush reports<br />
that New Orleans missed the worst of<br />
the storm. His acknowledged ‘‘sense<br />
of relaxation in a critical moment’’<br />
ignored his father’s experience as<br />
president 15 years earlier, when the<br />
initial accounting from Hurricane<br />
Andrew in Florida underestimated the<br />
savageness of that storm and response<br />
time was lost.<br />
we’re coming, and<br />
we are interested in<br />
the fingerprints<br />
placed on these gifts<br />
by <strong>Sheridan</strong>-area<br />
people.<br />
“<strong>The</strong>se fingerprints<br />
are the direct<br />
link to those who<br />
will receive these<br />
needed supplies,”<br />
said the Rev. David<br />
Duprey in a news<br />
release.<br />
<strong>The</strong> last opportunity<br />
to drop off<br />
donations will be<br />
Tuesday from 8<br />
a.m. until noon at St. Peter’s Episcopal<br />
Church, corner of Loucks and Tschirgi<br />
streets.<br />

A <strong>Sheridan</strong> police officer suffered a broken<br />
foot in a scuffle with a suspect early<br />
Saturday that ended with another officer<br />
using a Taser stun gun to subdue the suspect,<br />
according to report from the Police<br />
Department.<br />
Officer Scott Brastrup was in the Mini-<br />
Mart convenience store at 531 Coffeen Ave.<br />
about 4:30 a.m., when he spotted a man he<br />
recognized as Jason Gausvik, 23, of <strong>Sheridan</strong>.<br />
Gausvik was wanted on a warrant for failing<br />
to register as a sex offender, according to<br />
the Police Department.<br />
Brastrup approached Gausvik, who gave a<br />
false name, and Brastrup began arrest proceedings,<br />

While Brastrup was attempting to<br />

and Brastrup’s foot was was broken in the<br />
scuffle, according to the report.<br />
Gausvik tried to flee across the store’s<br />
parking lot, but Officer Spencer Kukuchka<br />
arrived at the scene and subdued Gausvik<br />
by shooting him with a Taser gun, the<br />
report says.<br />
Gausvik and Brastrup were then taken<br />
to <strong>Sheridan</strong> Memorial Hospital, where<br />
they were both treated and released,<br />
according to the report.<br />
Gausvik was jailed on the warrant<br />
charge, and charges of interference with a<br />
peace officer and possession of a controlled<br />
substance were also filed against<br />
him, according to the Police Department.<br />

<strong>The</strong> land trust would be the 10th established<br />
in Wyoming — and the first dedicated<br />
specifically to <strong>Sheridan</strong> County, the<br />
release stated.<br />
A public meeting is planned Oct. 6 to<br />
work on setting up the trust, including<br />
establishing a 12-member board of directors.<br />

pledging more frequent and realistic evacuation drills.<br />
Milwaukee leaders realized they have no evacuation<br />
plan. <strong>The</strong> city of 580,000 had such a plan during the<br />
Cold War, but they cannot find it. ‘‘I’m not sure where<br />
it is or what it says,’’ said Steve Frank, leading a federally<br />
financed effort to improve the city’s disaster response.<br />
More broadly, some have drawn the lesson that they<br />
cannot rely on the Federal Emergency Management<br />
Agency or the federal government itself.<br />
‘‘What can we do as locals that doesn’t rely on<br />
FEMA too much?’’ asked David Robertson, director of<br />
the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments,<br />
made up of Maryland and Virginia municipalities<br />
around the nation’s capital.<br />
<strong>The</strong> council is considering a network of old-fashioned<br />
sirens, learning from Katrina that the airwaves, the<br />
Internet and telephones do not get the word around<br />

Among the issues under review is:<br />
—Second responders. Katrina helped teach that the<br />
local police, fire and rescue teams responding first to<br />
an emergency can become victims of it themselves.<br />
This vanguard lost communications, equipment and<br />
much of its effectiveness. Plus, many New Orleans<br />
police officers went AWOL.<br />
Troops often become the second wave. <strong>The</strong>ir mass<br />
mobilization, days after a storm, usually is enough<br />
when most people have been evacuated, holdouts<br />
have survived the immediate crisis and people can<br />
rely on their own supplies until help arrives. Not so in<br />
Katrina.<br />
In classic hurricane relief, ‘‘you assume that if you<br />
can respond in three, five, seven, 10 days, you’re<br />
doing pretty well,’’ said Michael O’Hanlon, a senior<br />
fellow at the Brookings Institution. ‘‘I think we have<br />
to add another concept to our framework, which is<br />
urgent response, not just fast response.’’<br />

MOTHER’S MILK AND MYOPIA<br />
According to the Singapore Eye<br />
Research Institute, children who<br />
are breastfed are about 50 percent<br />
less likely to be nearsighted<br />
(myopic). Docosahexaenoic acid<br />
(DHA), a substance found in breast<br />
milk, could be the main element<br />
t hat improves early visual devel -<br />
opment in babies. This results in<br />
more ordered eyeball growth,<br />
which reduces the development, or<br />
severity, of myopia. DHA is also<br />
important for the development of<br />
photoreceptor cells in the retina,<br />
which play a major role in whether<br />
children become myopic. While<br />
genetic variation is seen to be the<br />
main culprit of myopia among chil -<br />
dren, researchers recommend<br />
breast-feeding as a protective<br />
behavior to lower the probability of<br />
the development of nearsight -<br />
edness, the most common eye<br />
problem in this country.<br />
P.S. Nearsightedness affects as<br />
much as 40% of the U.S. population.<br />

Katrina recovery may slow Fed plan to raise interest rates<br />
WASHINGTON (AP) — Conflicting<br />
economic risks that could emerge from<br />
Hurricane Katrina are putting Federal<br />
Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan and his<br />
central bank colleagues in a challenging<br />
spot.<br />
Fallout from the disaster is expected to<br />
slow economic growth over the rest of the<br />
year, perhaps persuading the Fed to suspend<br />
its campaign of raising interest rates.<br />
But a main argument for the Fed to stay<br />
the course is the concern that high energy<br />
costs, made worse by the killer storm, could<br />
filter down and affect the price of all kinds<br />
of things. Broader inflation could follow.<br />
Policy-makers meet Tuesday to consider<br />
their next move on interest rates. Many<br />
economists are betting they will lift an<br />
important short-term benchmark by onequarter<br />
of percentage point, to 3.75 percent.<br />
It would be the 11th such increase since<br />
the Fed began to tighten credit in June 2004.<br />
Commercial banks would be expected to<br />
increase their prime lending rates by a corresponding<br />
amount, to 6.75 percent. <strong>The</strong>se<br />

rates are used for many short-term consumer<br />
loans, including some credit cards and popular<br />
home equity lines of credit.<br />
If the Fed pushes rates up again this<br />
week, borrowing costs would reach their<br />
highest level in four years.<br />
‘‘I think this is very, very tough for the<br />
Fed. <strong>The</strong>re’s also the compassion issue. You<br />
run the risk of looking very callous by raising<br />
rates,’’ said Brandeis University economics<br />
professor Stephen Cecchetti.<br />
When all the risks are weighed, though,<br />
Cecchetti predicts the Fed will nudge rates<br />
higher.<br />
Those in the rate-raising camp make this<br />
case: From an economic standpoint, inflation<br />
is more dangerous now than is the threat<br />
of a serious economic slowdown.<br />
Other analysts say the prospects of a<br />
downturn are more of a risk. <strong>The</strong>y say the<br />
Fed should leave rates alone on Tuesday.<br />
‘‘I think the greater risk is that higher<br />
energy prices will cause consumers to pull<br />
back, slowing overall economic growth,’’<br />
said economist Kathleen Camilli, president<br />

A Board of Trustees meeting will be held on Monday,<br />
October 10, 2005, to decide who will be appointed to the Whitney Board.<br />
of Camilli Economics. She is on the side of<br />
those who think the Fed will leave rates<br />
unchanged at its meeting.<br />
Whatever the fate of interest rates, there<br />
is agreement that the hurricane shaping up<br />
as the costliest natural disaster in U.S. history<br />
is causing uncertainty about the economic<br />
outlook. That is complicating the Fed’s job<br />
of keeping the economy and inflation on an<br />
even keel.<br />
Before Katrina, it seemed certain the Fed<br />
would raise rates at the September meeting.<br />
<strong>The</strong> idea of a pause cropped up among<br />
economists soon after Katrina struck in late<br />
August.<br />
Given more time to assess the situation<br />
and the economic fallout, many analysts<br />
have returned to the rate-raising camp.<br />
‘‘Right after Katrina it looked like a nobrainer.<br />
Uncertainties about where things<br />
were going as a result of Katrina would<br />
force the Fed to pause. But since then, the<br />
idea of the Fed pausing is fading,’’ said<br />

WASHINGTON (AP) —<br />
House Republicans are looking<br />
at delaying some federal spending,<br />
including money for a prescription<br />
drug benefit under<br />
Medicare and thousands of highway<br />
projects, to offset the cost<br />
of rebuilding the Gulf Coast, a<br />
leading GOP fiscal conservative<br />
said Sunday.<br />
Rep. Mike Pence, R-Ind., said<br />
there is a need for dramatic<br />
spending cuts in ‘‘big-ticket<br />
items.’’<br />
Raising taxes or not making<br />
permanent the president’s tax<br />
cuts is not the answer now, said<br />
Pence, head of the Republican<br />
Study Group, the spearhead<br />
group for the GOP’s most conservative<br />
members.<br />
‘‘We simply cannot break the<br />
bank of the federal budget,’’<br />
Pence told ABC’s ‘‘This<br />
Week.’’<br />
‘‘We simply can’t allow a<br />
catastrophe of nature to become<br />
a catastrophe of debt for our<br />
children and grandchildren,’’ he<br />
said.<br />
<strong>The</strong> drug benefit program, set<br />
to begin Jan. 1, is expected to<br />
cost $40 billion a year. Last<br />
month President Bush signed a<br />
$286.4 billion highway bill that<br />
has been criticized for including<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Sheridan</strong> <strong>Press</strong>, Monday, September 19, 2005 3<br />
<strong>The</strong> economy is resilient and is expected<br />
to bounce back from what many economists<br />
hope will be a temporary rough patch.<br />
For now, Katrina is expected to reduce<br />
overall economic growth in the second half<br />
of this year by as much as one percentage<br />
point.<br />
High energy prices are seen crimping<br />
consumer and business spending, vital<br />
ingredients for healthy economic activity.<br />
Hiring will slow. A reduction of 400,000<br />
jobs over the next four months is forecast.<br />
President Bush wants Congress to<br />
approve a massive reconstruction program<br />
for the Gulf Coast. <strong>The</strong> federal government’s<br />
costs could reach $200 billion or<br />
more. Congress already has approved $62<br />
billion.<br />
Rebuilding, once under way, should<br />
help energize overall economic activity<br />
and the jobs climate, though probably not<br />
until next year.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are mixed opinions on what the<br />
Fed will do on Nov. 1 and Dec. 13 — the<br />
last scheduled meetings for this year.<br />
about 6,000 projects added by<br />
lawmakers to benefit their districts<br />
and states.<br />
Setting aside all of those<br />
additional highway projects and<br />
delaying the drug benefit by a<br />
year are expected to be among<br />
the proposals House Republicans<br />
are preparing for ‘‘Operation<br />
Offset’’ this week, Pence said.<br />
‘‘We need to rebuild,’’ he<br />
said. ‘‘We can find the cuts in<br />
Washington, D.C., to do that, I<br />
really believe that.’’<br />
Sen. David Vitter, R-La., said<br />
tax increases will not be a part of<br />
the recovery plan he intends to<br />
offer this week. Although cuts in<br />
spending and delays in spending<br />
already approved will not be in<br />
his proposal, Vitter said he is<br />
open to considering such actions.<br />
Vitter said people should not<br />
take on faith that Republicans<br />
will make cuts in light of the<br />
high spending during the Bush<br />
administration.<br />
‘‘We haven’t been disciplined<br />
enough over the last 10 years.<br />
We need to do that, and we<br />
needed to do that before Katrina.<br />
We still need to do that over the<br />
medium and long term,’’ Vitter<br />
said.<br />
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-<br />
S.C., said an across-the-board<br />

House Republicans consider delaying<br />

borrowing more money<br />
from other countries to pay for<br />

the wealthiest.<br />
He said Democrats should<br />
make those policies an issue in<br />

basically loan us money every<br />

Opinion THE<br />
SHERIDAN <strong>Press</strong> Monday,<br />
Dems should<br />
ask Bush to send<br />
another Roberts<br />
for high court<br />
<strong>The</strong> question of whether Judge John Roberts is<br />
qualified to be chief justice of the United States has<br />
been rendered moot by his performance in the Senate<br />
Judiciary Committee hearings.<br />
He is so obviously — ridiculously — wellequipped<br />
to lead government's third branch that it is<br />
hard to imagine how any Democrats can justify a<br />
vote against his confirmation.<br />
Start with his intellect. This is a man whose<br />
knowledge of constitutional law goes well beyond<br />
his intimate familiarity with seemingly every<br />
Supreme Court decision.<br />
It is rooted in a thorough understanding of<br />
American history. He quotes Hamilton in the<br />
Federalist Papers not to show off his erudition but to<br />
buttress a point completely pertinent to current<br />
debates.<br />
Next, his temperament. He<br />
has a quick wit, one that<br />
repeatedly disarmed even the<br />
prickliest of his questioners.<br />
You don't have to be an<br />
expert on reading "body language,"<br />
as Sen. Tom Coburn<br />
of Oklahoma claimed to be,<br />
to see that he is perfectly<br />
comfortable in his own skin,<br />
David<br />
Broder<br />
Columnist<br />
immune to pressure.<br />
What was most impressive<br />
to me was the depth of his<br />
appreciation of what it means<br />
to be a judge. It came<br />
through in many ways.<br />
He said judges are not "automatons" but "bring our<br />
life experiences to the bench." But he quickly added<br />
that "the ideal in the American justice system is epitomized<br />
by the fact that judges — justices — do wear<br />
black robes, and that is meant to symbolize the fact<br />
that they're not individuals promoting their own particular<br />
views, but . . . doing their best to interpret the<br />
law, to interpret the Constitution, according to the<br />
rule of law."<br />
His first mentor, appeals court Judge Henry<br />
Friendly, demonstrated "a total commitment to excellence<br />
in his craft at every stage of the process, just a<br />
total devotion to the rule of law and the confidence<br />
that if you just worked hard enough at it, you'd come<br />
up with the right answers," Roberts said. "He liked<br />
the fact that the editorialists of the day couldn't<br />
decide whether he was a liberal or a conservative."<br />
His second model, Justice William Rehnquist,<br />
taught him "to try to write crisply and efficiently,"<br />
and, more importantly, provided an example of collegiality<br />
and fairness when he later became chief justice.<br />
From his study of history, Roberts said, he derived<br />
his understanding of the vital — but limited — role<br />
of the judiciary, the only part of the government<br />
whose legitimacy depends on its demonstration of<br />
self-restraint, since it is not subject to direct public<br />
control.<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Framers were not the sort of people, having<br />
fought a revolution to get the right of self-government,<br />
to sit down and say, 'Let's take all the difficult<br />
issues before us and let's have the judges decide<br />
them.' "<br />
Finally, he said, his recent judicial service has<br />
deepened his sense of humility.<br />
"Part of that modesty has to do with being open to<br />
the considered views of your colleagues on the<br />
bench. I would say that's one of the things I've<br />
learned the most in the past two years on the Court of<br />
Appeals: how valuable it is to function in a collegial<br />
way . . . other judges being open to your views; you<br />
being open to theirs. <strong>The</strong>y, after all, are in the same<br />
position you're in. <strong>The</strong>y've read the same briefs.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y've heard the same arguments. . . . If they're seeing<br />
things in a very different way, you need to be<br />
open to that and try to take another look at your view<br />
and make sure that you're on solid ground."<br />
This is so far from the caricature of a conservative<br />
ideologue depicted by some of the interest groups<br />
that their attacks seem absurd.<br />
Roberts grew up in privileged circumstances but<br />
repeatedly expressed his belief in the words "equal<br />
justice under law," which he noted are carved on the<br />
portal of the Supreme Court.<br />
Nonetheless, Democrats complained that he had<br />
not told them where he stands on particular causes of<br />
importance to those groups. As he properly said, to<br />
answer those questions on pending issues would be,<br />
in effect, to enter into "a bargaining process," to<br />
swap commitments in return for votes.<br />
Roberts' only problem is that he has set a standard<br />
so high, it will be difficult for the next nominee to<br />
measure up.<br />
If the Democrats are smart, they will not bow to<br />
their interest groups but instead will embrace this<br />
<strong>extra</strong>ordinary nominee and challenge President Bush,<br />
who has at least one more vacancy to fill, to "send us<br />
another Roberts."<br />

Who is the better cowgirl?<br />
Hard to determine an answer<br />
Editor:<br />
After reading Savannah Littrell’s latest article on<br />
rodeo queens, the question of who is the “better cowgirl”<br />
may never be answered in a rodeo arena.<br />
<strong>The</strong> best cowgirl may be one who has never set foot<br />
in a rodeo arena because she is consumed with ranch<br />
work on the family ranch, which we must not forget is<br />
where the sport of rodeo derived from.<br />
As ambassadors for this sport, we should be encouraging<br />
the young lady who did not ride as well as the<br />
other contestants instead of ridiculing her for trying.<br />
Anyone can participate in a rodeo queen contest or<br />
rodeo event, but it is only the accomplished contestants<br />
who receive the title or win the event.<br />
Our role is to educate those who are trying a new<br />
sport or gaining experience in participating in a rodeo<br />
queen contest. I applaud them for having the courage to<br />
put themselves in the public eye and try something new.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are those who would stop to pick an earthworm<br />
up and move it to the grass, swerve and hit a tree<br />
instead of the cat crossing the road, and avoid eating<br />
even salad if it meant one cow might starve.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are those who also love animals … but only if<br />
they can wear and eat them, those who will taste anything<br />
from an earthworm to a snake to a sheep (and the<br />
only part of the sheep that I’m fairly sure should not be<br />
eaten), run over everything in their way, and wrap<br />
expensive fox furs around their necks that many times<br />
still have the little faces on, with beady eyes resting on<br />
their shoulders.<br />
And there are those, like myself, who are somewhere<br />
in the middle, who don’t quite know exactly<br />
where we stand when it comes to animal rights; we sure<br />
don’t want any critter to suffer, but we don’t put too<br />
much thought into it, distracted as we are with a delicious<br />
steak on our plate, a leather wallet in our purse, or<br />
a wool blanket to snuggle under.<br />
Recently, however, I decided it was time to investigate<br />
the subject when I watched as PETA (People for<br />
the Ethical Treatment of Animals) celebrated its 25th<br />
Anniversary.<br />
I wanted to find out what happens between Point A<br />
(the cow in the meadow) and Point Z (the burger on the<br />
barbecue), so I could make an eating-lifestyle choice<br />
based on an informed opinion instead of one that is<br />
altogether void of logic.<br />
I am as firm in my beliefs as I am in the fact that<br />
rhyme or reason cannot be found in them. For example,<br />
I’ve always eaten beef, but I refuse to eat veal (it may<br />
be the mother in me, but those calves are so cute!),<br />
which is why I also avoid lamb.<br />
I grew up feeding ducks, so to eat them feels like a<br />
sin against nature, as does eating any kind of bird —<br />
except chickens, which aren’t so cute.<br />
I will eat none of the animals in “Bambi,” which is<br />
also why I would make a terrible hunter, since the only<br />
thing I would shoot at a deer and her fawn is a picture.<br />
And I gasp at the sight of anyone who has the audacity<br />
to wear fur. Don’t they know how those poor little<br />
foxes and chinchillas suffer? But I have no problem<br />

I am proud of the rodeo queen who was cowgirl<br />
enough to ride a 3-year-old into the arena at<br />
<strong>Sheridan</strong>’s rodeos. Many ranch and rodeo girls do<br />
not run for queen titles because of various reasons,<br />
some of which include the negative comments that<br />
discourage them from representing rodeo in a different<br />
role.<br />
Those courageous enough to step out of their<br />
ranch and rodeo comfort zone and represent rodeo in<br />
a different role are to be commended.<br />
Many former title holders have helped dispel the<br />
misconceptions about rodeo queens. To name a few,<br />

with leather … I guess it goes back to that cow thing.<br />
Curiosity got the best of me, however, and I thought<br />
it was about time to inform myself of the animal process,<br />
and processing, in order to make a sound decision<br />
instead of one based only on childhood memories and<br />
Disney movies.<br />
So I went online and visited PETA’s Web site,<br />
where I was able to “meet my meat.” This is not a place<br />
for the fainthearted, and now I must make sense of all<br />
the information I never wanted to know.<br />
I’d assumed that, at the very extreme, I might have<br />
to decide if I wanted to give up steak, and maybe chicken<br />
(fish weren’t going to be so lucky), when I discovered<br />
what I already suspected about the process of<br />
killing for human consumption.<br />
But this issue goes way past burgers and KFC, and I<br />
will never look at the milk I drink, my leather jacket, or<br />
my down comforter the same way again.<br />
So how do I decide? Where do I draw that line?<br />
Why is a dog more important than a cow? Why do we<br />
have societies for the humane treatment of cats and not<br />
pigs?<br />
I had to ask myself some tough questions, the first<br />
being why have I established an order of seniority for<br />
the ethical treatment of animals?<br />
Here in America we love our dogs and go to great<br />
lengths to care for them, protect them … but eat them?<br />
Perish the thought! Three words to dog lovers: Avoid<br />
South Korea.<br />
Here in America we love our rodents and reptiles; it<br />

A beef with PETA? Meet your meat<br />
is commonplace for kids and adults alike to keep snakes<br />
and lizards and gerbils as pets. Peruvians enjoy rodents<br />
as well — they eat an estimated 65 million guinea pigs<br />
a year.<br />
Do I think dogs and guinea pigs should be eaten? Or<br />
horses, monkeys, and a thousand other animals, for that<br />
matter? Personally, no.<br />
But it helps to know what the rest of the world is<br />
eating in order to help my perspective, just as it helps to<br />
know how that burger and drumstick got on my plate,<br />
because when it comes down to it, I don’t want a cow<br />
or chicken to suffer any more than I want a dog or cat<br />
to.<br />
But am I willing to give up eating meat? And fish?<br />
And milk and cheese and butter? Am I willing to eat<br />
only vegetables (and only organic ones, at that) for the<br />
rest of my life?<br />
And I must look at the alternative: If nobody ate<br />
cows or wore leather, how many ranchers and farmers<br />
and others would that put out of business?<br />
I hate to be blunt, but everyone should meet his<br />
meat, not to turn the world into vegetarians, but maybe<br />
start the change to at least rid the planet of inhumane<br />
killing and needless suffering taking place with every<br />
kind of animal, including those we enjoy for dinner.<br />
As for me? I’ve made a decision: I will continue to<br />
avoid eating any animals featured in “Bambi.” And I<br />
will not eat the babies of anything. And I will not wear<br />
fur of any kind, nor ever wear the skin of any reptile<br />
whether on my shoes or luggage.<br />
This will be my part, my small contribution to a<br />
change for the better on behalf of animals everywhere.<br />
As for that cow in the meadow?<br />
I’m not sure if I’m ready to give up beef, and certainly<br />
not to advocate that anyone else do so, but I<br />
might forgo buying the leather jacket next time, and<br />
maybe choose a salad instead of a hamburger, so one<br />
cow might get lucky … if there’s such a thing as a<br />
lucky cow.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Wyoming Vaccine Information Network will<br />
meet at noon Friday and at 10 a.m. on Saturday.<br />
Both meetings will be in the WYOIL conference<br />
room at 856 Coffeen Ave. Attendees are asked to use<br />
the outside WYOIL entrance in the northwest corner<br />
of the ABC Realty Building.<br />
Participants may bring their lunches.<br />
<strong>The</strong>me of both meetings will be "Do we have to<br />
vaccinate?" according to spokeswoman Susan Pearce.<br />
Topics will include the right to abstain from mandatory<br />
vaccines, exemption forms for schools, day cares<br />
and employers, state vaccine tracking registries and<br />
whether they are voluntary and "being effective in<br />
asserting our rights."<br />
State laws allow medical and religious exemptions<br />
to vaccination requirements, Pearce said. She added<br />
questions about obtaining these waivers will be<br />
answered.<br />
<strong>The</strong> lending library will be available on both meeting<br />
days. <strong>The</strong> library includes books, magazines, audiotapes,<br />
videos, CDs, a DVD, and articles on vaccines.<br />
An updated lending library list will be given to those<br />
attending the meetings, Pearce said.<br />

Dr. Gott Dr. Peter Gott<br />
DEAR DR. GOTT: Let me preface my remarks by<br />
telling you I was born Sept. 27, 1922. You can do the<br />
math.<br />
If it weren't for a deteriorated disc in my lower spine<br />
I could be out doing cartwheels. I<br />
am 25 pounds heavier than I was<br />
at 25. I can't walk miles and<br />
miles, but thanks to modern<br />
medicine I walk without pain. I<br />
have controlled high blood pressure.<br />
My cholesterol is OK, as<br />
are my heart and lungs. At my<br />
age it's a miracle. Even more of a<br />
miracle is the fact that I have<br />
smoked since I was 20 years old<br />
-- that's almost 62 years of smoking.<br />
I have an annual physical<br />
and the doctor just shakes his<br />
head.<br />
I sometimes think it's all in the genes whether one is<br />
prone to cancer. <strong>The</strong> only cancer in my family (both<br />
sides) was my 93-year-old grandmother, but then she<br />
had to die of something (she also smoked).<br />
My only medical problem is my husband, who is an<br />
Alzheimer's patient. Enough said. Next week we will<br />
have been married for 61 years.<br />
DEAR READER: Cancer is certainly genetic, but<br />
we don't know exactly which genes and what to do<br />
about them.<br />
DEAR ABBY: My brother,<br />
"Dick," was a sheriff's deputy for<br />
five years. He was arrested recently<br />
on felony theft charges, stemming<br />
from burglaries committed in the<br />
rural area he was assigned to protect.<br />
I gave up on Dick years ago. He<br />
has almost destroyed the family<br />
farm by not showing up for meetings<br />
and spending money that wasn't<br />
his. He also stole items from the<br />
farm, as well as a substantial<br />
amount of cash from our mother.<br />
I am worried about Mother. She<br />
knows Dick is guilty, but makes up<br />
every excuse under the sun for him.<br />
He takes anti-depressants -- she<br />
blames them. She blames his soonto-be<br />
ex-wife. She blames his girlfriend<br />
who "put him up to the<br />
crimes and then turned him in." She<br />
bails him out and lets him stay with<br />
her if he wants.<br />
Anything negative my siblings<br />
say about him, she takes as a direct<br />
insult. Dick broke Mom's heart<br />
years ago, and my siblings and I<br />
were left to pick up the pieces. Now<br />
she's allowing him to do it all over<br />
again. He's tearing our family apart.<br />
How can we<br />
convince her<br />
it's time for<br />
tough love? -<br />

TO HELP<br />
MOM IN<br />
T H E<br />
NORTH-<br />
WEST<br />
D E A R<br />
TRYING: It<br />
might be better<br />
for your brother if you could, but<br />
you can't. Your mother is so fully<br />
invested emotionally in your brother<br />
that she can no longer differentiate<br />
between him and herself. That is<br />
why, when you criticize him, she<br />
takes it as a personal insult. That is<br />
also why she is so determined to<br />
"protect" him from the consequences<br />
of his actions. What's sad<br />
is, she is not helping your brother.<br />
She's only allowing him to continue<br />
You sound fairly feisty -- that's admirable. Feisty<br />
people seem to live longer. Keep making your doctor<br />
shake his head. His neck probably needs the exercise.<br />
Keep going, stop smoking, and God bless.<br />
DEAR DR. GOTT: I'm a 39-year-old female in good<br />
health. I exercise three to four times a week by playing<br />
tennis, fitness walking or rollerblading. Lately, my<br />
knees often feel weak when I walk up or down stairs,<br />
and I am worried that I'm headed for greater problems<br />
as I age. Is there anything I can do to strengthen my<br />
knees, and would you recommend wearing a brace on<br />
my knees as I see some women do on the tennis court?<br />
DEAR READER: <strong>The</strong> problem you describe -some<br />
weakness on stairs -- is probably due to quadricep<br />
deconditioning. <strong>The</strong> quadricep muscles of the thigh flex<br />
and extend the lower leg. You can strengthen these<br />
muscles with special exercises, such as leg lifts, or use<br />
the machines designed for this purpose in fitness centers.<br />
I do not believe that your knees are to blame,<br />
because you are not experiencing pain. <strong>The</strong>refore, I<br />
don't recommend knee braces, which are useful primarily<br />
for unstable joints such as can occur from injuries or<br />
arthritis. Braces protect, but do not rehabilitate. I think<br />
that you would be better served by a program of<br />
strengthening.<br />
Doctor Gott is a practicing physician and the author<br />
of the new book "Live Longer, Live Better: Taking<br />
Care of Your Health" (Quill Driver Books,<br />

his anti-social behavior.<br />
Let's hope the state steps in and<br />
prevents your brother from continuing<br />
his criminal activities -- for a<br />
while. However, even then, don't<br />
expect him to change until the consequences<br />
of his actions become so<br />
severe that he feels he must. Why<br />
should he? Until now, his mother<br />
has tossed him a featherbed every<br />
time he should have landed on his<br />
fanny. It's called ENABLING.<br />
DEAR ABBY: A few weeks<br />
ago, I e-mailed a message to an old<br />
friend. I received a reply from his<br />
son, who was handling his father's<br />
affairs after his death a few days<br />
earlier. He had no idea who I was.<br />
If he had looked at his father's<br />
mailing list, he would have seen a<br />
list of people who would have been<br />
interested in his father's demise.<br />
I'm going to code our list now, to<br />
indicate who should be contacted in<br />
case of death or serious illness. --<br />
GRIEVING IN MISSOURI<br />
DEAR GRIEVING: Over the<br />
years I have received literally hundreds<br />
of letters like yours from people<br />
who have lost old friends. <strong>The</strong>se<br />
are people who would have liked to<br />
have sent condolences, made donations<br />
to charity, said a final goodbye<br />
at the funeral, or shared a happy<br />
experience at a memorial for the<br />
friend they lost.<br />
Readers, although none of us<br />
likes to dwell on our own mortality,<br />
I don't know of anyone who has<br />
managed to last forever. So consider<br />
for a moment the people who<br />
care about you. Go through your<br />
address book and note the individuals<br />
you think would like to be notified<br />
if you are unable to do it yourself.<br />
<strong>The</strong> task will take only a few<br />
minutes. And leave a note indicating<br />
where to find the information<br />
with your important papers.<br />

Silver Moon Evening generates $22,000<br />
• Nearly 200 attend fund-raiser for Advocacy and Resource Center<br />
By Pat Blair<br />
Senior staff reporter<br />
Nearly 200 people attended the <strong>Sheridan</strong><br />
Advocacy and Resource Center’s Silver Moon<br />
Evening on Friday, helping raise at least $22,000<br />
to assist local victims of violent crimes, according<br />
to Executive Director Charlotte Jenkins.<br />
Jenkins said funds from the <strong>Sheridan</strong> Country<br />
Club event were still being tallied this morning.<br />
<strong>The</strong> amount includes more than $8,000 from a<br />
live auction — a new event this year — as well<br />
as the silent auction, the $25 admission to the<br />
event, and donations from individuals who<br />
couldn’t attend the event.<br />
Roger St. Clair donated his services as auctioneer.<br />
Jenkins added the biggest-selling item in<br />
the live auction was a Persian rug donated by<br />
<strong>Sheridan</strong> County Attorney Matt Redle. <strong>The</strong> rug<br />
went for $3,150.<br />
Redle also was among individuals honored for<br />
services to the center, which began in 1980 as the<br />
Women’s Center, established to help women victims<br />
of domestic violence. <strong>The</strong> center changed its<br />
name in the 1990s to reflect a shift of services to<br />
CHEYENNE (AP) — <strong>The</strong><br />
Peacekeeper nuclear missile, credited<br />
by some with helping with the demise<br />
of the Soviet Union and winning the<br />
Cold War, was to be officially deactivated<br />
Monday.<br />
F.E. Warren Air Force Base here<br />
oversaw the only squadron of 50<br />
Peacekeepers deployed in the United<br />
States. Each 71-foot-tall, 8-foot-diameter<br />
missile, deployed in the 1980s,<br />
carried 10 warheads.<br />
Almost 15 years after the end of<br />
the Soviet Union and the Cold War,<br />
the last Peacekeeper, also known as<br />
the MX, has been removed from its<br />
hardened silo. A ceremony was<br />
scheduled Monday at F.E. Warren to<br />
mark the deactivation of the missile.<br />
In 2002 the first Peacekeeper was<br />
deactivated after Defense Secretary<br />
Donald Rumsfeld testified to the<br />
House Armed Services Committee<br />
that he and the Air Force felt the missile<br />
no longer was necessary. <strong>The</strong><br />

Advocacy<br />
and Resource<br />
Center Director<br />
Last Peacekeeper<br />
MX missile in U.S.<br />
deactivated in Wyo.<br />
include all victims of violent<br />
crimes.<br />
Jenkins said Redle was<br />
instrumental in helping<br />
the center by allowing it<br />
to have an office within<br />
his office, thus giving the<br />
center access to information<br />
to better assist its<br />
clients.<br />
Others awarded during<br />
the evening include<br />
<strong>Sheridan</strong> County Sheriff<br />
Dave Hofmeier; the Scott<br />
Foundation for its contributions<br />
to the center<br />
through the years —<br />
including $100,000 for<br />
the center’s remodeling project, which was the<br />
largest single gift to the center from a private<br />
foundation to date; Harriet Elkington, who started<br />
the Women’s Center; Jane Elkington Wohl,<br />
the first board president; Dr. Tim Scott, “who<br />
gave us medical credibility in the 1980s,”<br />
Jenkins said; and Georgia Foster, who is the cen-<br />
missiles were taken out, one by one,<br />
stage by stage, and retired.<br />
When the missiles first came to<br />
Wyoming, the United States was in<br />
the throes of the Cold War. <strong>The</strong><br />
Soviet Union had been building up its<br />
nuclear arsenal, and the United States<br />
felt it needed an added form of deterrence.<br />
President Ronald Reagan began<br />
pushing Congress to fund the biggest,<br />
most powerful intercontinental ballistic<br />
missile system the world ever had<br />
seen. Officially it was known as the<br />
MX, but he called it the Peacekeeper.<br />
Unlike some other states,<br />
Wyoming welcomed the deployment<br />
of the missile.<br />
Phil Roberts, associate professor<br />
of history at the University of<br />
Wyoming, said there was a different<br />
attitude here toward nuclear missiles.<br />
After living with the Atlas,<br />
Minuteman I and Minuteman III, having<br />
a new missile system was nothing<br />
new for Wyoming.<br />
BLM approves gold<br />
exploration near<br />
historic South Pass<br />
ROCK SPRINGS (AP) — <strong>The</strong> Bureau of<br />
Land Management has approved a plan to<br />
explore for gold near the historic South Pass<br />
area.<br />
Fremont Gold Corp. has proposed digging<br />
200 test pits in the Dickie Springs area to determine<br />
whether a commercial gold mine venture<br />
is possible.<br />
<strong>The</strong> area is located about 60 miles northeast<br />
of Rock Springs in Fremont County and about<br />
six miles southeast of South Pass just off<br />

Conservation groups had protested that the<br />
BLM failed to consider alternatives to the company’s<br />

BLM funds Pinedale<br />
oil, gas development<br />
monitoring priorities<br />
ROCK SPRINGS (AP) — <strong>The</strong> Bureau of<br />
Land Management will pay $275,000 to fund an<br />
advisory group’s main recommendations for<br />
monitoring oil and gas development in southwest<br />
Wyoming.<br />
<strong>The</strong> monitoring in the Pinedale Anticline<br />
will include counting traffic to and from drilling<br />
rig sites, collaring sage grouse for study, and<br />
ter’s longest-term volunteer with 11 years to her<br />
credit.<br />
Jenkins also expressed appreciation to the center’s<br />
staff, including Direct Services Coordinator<br />
Bonnie Young (who has been with the center for<br />
21 years), victim advocates Erica O’Dell and<br />
Tania Harper and office assistant Vi Channel.<br />
Jenkins said she did not have an exact head<br />
count this morning of those who attended the<br />
25th anniversary event, but Krishell’s Catering<br />
planned food for 100 to 150 people, “and we ran<br />
out of food.”<br />
She estimated the number of attendees at<br />
between 175 and 200. Spurs of the Moment and<br />
Eddie Quinn provided entertainment.<br />

priorities for monitoring identified by the<br />
Pinedale Anticline Working Group and its seven<br />
task groups.<br />
<strong>The</strong> anticline begins northwest of Pinedale and<br />
stretches about 30 miles to the southeast in<br />
Sublette County.<br />
<strong>The</strong> working group was established by the<br />
BLM in 2002 to advise the BLM on issues<br />
involving oil and gas development impacts on air<br />
quality, water quality, wildlife and the socio-economics<br />
of nearby communities.<br />
More than 100 residents volunteered to serve<br />
on the board and the various task groups.<br />
Representatives from government, industry, agriculture<br />
and conservation also are members.<br />
In August 2000, the BLM approved the<br />
drilling of more than 900 new wells over the next<br />
10 to 15 years to achieve 700 producing wells in<br />
the Pinedale Anticline area.<br />
<strong>The</strong> agency included various mitigation and<br />
monitoring measures that were required for operators<br />
in the 200,000-acre area and some winter<br />
drilling restrictions on the anticline’s mesa to protect<br />
wintering wildlife.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Sheridan</strong> <strong>Press</strong>/Pat Blair<br />
April 2005 sent to the BLM a list of 57 prioritized<br />
recommendations for monitoring of impacts related<br />
to development of the anticline field.<br />
‘‘<strong>The</strong> BLM felt it was important enough to<br />
fund, for fiscal year 2005, the top priorities from<br />
every task group that are not already being funded<br />
by another entity (such as) the oil and gas operators<br />
on the anticline,’’ BLM Pinedale Field<br />
Manager Prill Mecham said in a statement.<br />
Mecham said anticline oil and gas operators<br />
continue to support monitoring and research in<br />
the project area for air quality, water and wildlife<br />

Airline official: Return of<br />
second Casper Northwest<br />
flight likely next summer<br />
CASPER (AP) — Northwest Airlines will<br />
likely resume a second daily flight between<br />
Casper and Minneapolis next summer, a<br />
spokesman for the airline said Saturday.<br />
Beginning Oct. 1, Northwest will discontinue<br />
its second flight between the two cities. Airline<br />
spokesman Kurt Ebenhoch said the decision was<br />
strictly an economic one and not because of a<br />
strike by mechanics against the airline.<br />
Next month, he said, Northwest will alter its<br />
arrival and departure times in Casper. <strong>The</strong><br />
Northwest jet will leave Casper at 9 a.m. and<br />
arrive in Minneapolis at 12:08 p.m. <strong>The</strong> return<br />
flight will leave Minneapolis at 9:09 p.m. and<br />
land in Casper at 10:29 a.m.

Lady Bronc Shelley Forbes crosses the finish line Saturday in 20<br />
minutes, 31 seconds for a win in the Michelle Ludwig Invitational.<br />
Lady Broncs defend home course<br />
Forbes takes<br />
meet honors<br />
By Casey Temple<br />
Sports Editor<br />
Shelley Forbes was a little lonely<br />
out there in front all by herself.<br />
Comfortably ahead of the pack<br />
nearly the entire Michelle Ludwig<br />
Memorial Invitational, the <strong>Sheridan</strong><br />
senior cruised to top individual honors<br />
at the six-team meet Saturday at<br />
the VA Medical Center.<br />
Forbes finished at 20 minutes,<br />
31 seconds — 20 seconds ahead of<br />
runner-up Veronica Schmidt of<br />
Kelly Walsh. Forbes’ win — along<br />
with three of her teammates finishing<br />
in the top 10 — gave the Lady<br />
Broncs a team title as well.<br />
Led by Ryan Sorenson’s thirdplace<br />
finish at 17:56, the Broncs<br />
finished second to Kelly Walsh at<br />
the meet. Joel Buyan and Christian<br />
Neerimer both joined Sorenson in<br />
the top 10 at 18:14 and 18:19.<br />
Buyan was eighth, and Neerimer<br />
was 10th.<br />
After putting together a thirdplace<br />
and fifth-place finish in the<br />
previous two meets — 12-team<br />
invitationals at Billings and Gillette,<br />
respectively — Forbes said it was a<br />
little different running alone.<br />
“Usually there’s somebody<br />
either ahead that I can chase, or<br />
someone right behind me who is<br />
pushing me,” Forbes said. “Today it<br />
was more just racing myself — having<br />
to convince myself that I needed<br />
to go faster.”<br />
Though she was pleased with the<br />
win — and even happier with the<br />
Lady Bronc team victory — she did<br />
miss that competition.<br />
“It’s nice having someone there<br />
to push you, so you don’t really<br />
think about how long the race is or<br />
how much is left,” Forbes said.<br />
After standout indoor and outdoor<br />
track seasons her junior year,<br />
Forbes decided to give cross country<br />
a shot. Though she’s shown as<br />
much talent on the course as the<br />
track, Forbes said her best races are<br />
still ahead of her.<br />
“I’m still trying to get used to<br />

Wyoming quarterback Corey Bramlet looks to pass during the Cowboys' 29-28 conference-opening<br />
win Saturday.<br />
AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. (AP) —<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>extra</strong> point — normally one of the most<br />
routine plays in football — was anything but<br />
routine at Air Force on Saturday.<br />
At least not until Deric Yaussi lined his up<br />
with 1:25 left and kicked it straight through<br />
for the difference-maker in Wyoming’s 29-28<br />
victory over the Falcons.<br />
‘‘Most <strong>extra</strong> points are easy, pretty much<br />
right down the middle,’’ Yaussi said. ‘‘Every<br />
once in a while, they get a little tricky.’’<br />
Tricky. Trickery. <strong>The</strong>re was all that and<br />
more on the four, fourth-quarter <strong>extra</strong>-point<br />
attempts that proved the difference in an<br />
exciting, back-and-forth game between the<br />
Mountain West Conference rivals.<br />
Wyoming (2-1, 1-0) tied it at 28 and set<br />
Yaussi up for the winner after a 65-yard drive<br />
highlighted by three completions between<br />
Corey Bramlet and Michael Ford and capped<br />
by Bramlet’s 1-yard dive into the end zone.<br />
‘‘That last drive was about as classy, clean<br />
and crisp and in-sync as’’ I’ve seen, Cowboys<br />
coach Joe Glenn said.<br />
It turned into a game-winning drive<br />
because, after Air Force (2-1, 1-1) scored a<br />
touchdown on the possession before, holder<br />
Donny Heaton couldn’t handle the snap from<br />
Bryan Jones and was tackled near the sideline<br />
to keep the score at 28-22.<br />
‘‘We had it in our grasp and we let it slip<br />
away,’’ Falcons coach Fisher DeBerry said.<br />

it,” Forbes said, adding that the two<br />
sports are much different than one<br />
would think. “<strong>The</strong> first few races of<br />
the season I felt like I was either<br />
going out too fast or too slow — I<br />
didn’t feel like I ran my best race.<br />
I’m kind of waiting for the right<br />
day, to get with good competition<br />
and really push myself to do what I<br />
can do. But at the same time, I have<br />
done pretty well so far, and I’ve<br />
been happy with it.”<br />
<strong>Sheridan</strong> coach Art Baures was<br />
happy with both teams’ performances.<br />
“I really liked how aggressive<br />
we were on the course,” the coach<br />
said. “<strong>The</strong> girls (aggressiveness)<br />
paid off big, because we had three<br />
girls under 22 minutes and we<br />
haven’t had that all year. And this<br />
isn’t an easy course either. I was<br />
really impressed all the way through<br />
(the lineup).”<br />
Lady Bronc Brittany Palczewski<br />
finished third in the 25-man race at<br />
21:08, while teammates Kym May<br />
and Emily Bobinchak were sixth<br />
and 10th, respectively, at 21:47 and<br />
22:28. Angela Buyan missed the<br />
top 10 with a 12th-place 23:29, and<br />
Lacey Dabbs — running despite<br />
being sick — finished 14th at<br />
23:42.<br />

Tongue River<br />
undefeated at<br />
<strong>The</strong>rmopolis<br />
From staff reports<br />
<strong>The</strong> Tongue River Eagles flew<br />
past all the competition Saturday,<br />
winning the <strong>The</strong>rmopolis Tournament<br />
without much trouble.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Eagles won each of their six<br />
matches in two games apiece,<br />
including wins over Big Horn and<br />
host <strong>The</strong>rmopolis in pool play.<br />
Tongue River defeated Rocky<br />
Mountain, Shoshoni and Jackson in<br />
bracket play to win the tourney.<br />
“<strong>The</strong>y were just talking,” Tongue<br />
River coach Michelle Neilsen said.<br />
“<strong>The</strong>y were truly backing each other<br />
up and playing smart.”<br />
Tongue River defeated Jackson in<br />
the championship, winning 25-23,<br />
25-15.<br />
Neilsen said the first game went<br />
back and forth as the Eagles were<br />
getting warmed up after a one-game<br />
layoff. She said despite the slow<br />
start, she was pleased with the strong<br />
finish by the team.<br />
“We had our moments where we<br />
struggled. We’re still working on<br />
things, still figuring things out,”<br />
Neilsen said. “<strong>The</strong> talking and the<br />
communication was the best its been<br />
so far this year.”<br />
Neilsen said Tongue River had<br />
some difficult moments in the semifinal<br />
match against Shoshoni. <strong>The</strong><br />
Lady Eagles won a pair of close<br />
games — 25-22, 25-19 — on their<br />
way to the championship.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> girls were having fun this<br />
weekend, you could tell, and that<br />
makes all the difference,” the coach<br />
said.<br />

Lady Broncs<br />
ace Cody,<br />
Powell 4-1<br />
From staff reports<br />
<strong>The</strong> Lady Bronc tennis team<br />
tuned up for regionals with a pair<br />
of 4-1 wins over Cody and Powell<br />
on Saturday in Gillette.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Broncs were edged 3-2 by<br />
Cody, and were beaten 4-1 by<br />
Powell.<br />
“<strong>Sheridan</strong>’s girls’ team is topnotch,”<br />
said <strong>Sheridan</strong> coach Lorna<br />
Brooks. “<strong>The</strong>se girls are pumped<br />
and ready to go, and have a great<br />
opportunity to go to the top of<br />
both regionals and state.”<br />
Lady Bronc singles Diana Cole<br />
and Eden Andrews won both their<br />
matches at No. 1 and No. 2,<br />
respectively.<br />
“Diana had an awesome day<br />
against Cody and Powell, just taking<br />
apart both opponents with no<br />
trouble whatsoever,” Brooks said.<br />
“She is continuing to drive the ball<br />
with lots of authority and using a<br />
variety of shots to complete her<br />
game. Diana will be vying for a<br />
regional title this coming weekend<br />
at Gillette.”<br />

TR’s Hossfeld hits hole-in-one<br />
From staff reports<br />
<strong>The</strong> Tongue River golf team<br />
didn’t have its best performance<br />
as the boys’<br />
team finished in fifth<br />
place at the Moorcroft<br />
Invitational Friday and<br />
Saturday.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Eagles’ Craig<br />
Hossfeld had one of the<br />
few highlights for the<br />
team when he hit a holeon-one<br />
on Saturday. It<br />
was the first hole-on-one<br />
in tournament play in the<br />
history of the Tongue<br />
River team, said coach<br />
Gene Scheuerman.<br />
Craig<br />
Hossfeld<br />
Hossfeld’s shot came on the<br />
141-yard par three fifth hole at<br />
Pinehaven Country Club in<br />
Moorcroft.<br />
“Craig did really well this weekend,”<br />
Scheuerman said. “I’m hoping<br />
we’re going to peak at the right<br />
time as we go to the state tournament<br />
this week.”<br />
Hossfeld had the low score for<br />
the Eagles shooting a 171<br />
in the two-day tournament.<br />
John Fuller finished<br />
with a 171 and Michael<br />
Robinson had a 189.<br />
Hannah Jackson,<br />
the only girl playing for<br />
Tongue River, shot a 214.<br />
Nobody from Tongue<br />
River finished in the top<br />
10.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Eagles will<br />
travel to Casper for the<br />
state tournament on Friday<br />
and Saturday at Three<br />
Crowns golf course.<br />
“We’re probably to that point<br />
where we put some finishing touches<br />
on our hitting and putting,”<br />
Scheuerman said. “Hopefully we<br />
can play well and end up in the running<br />
someplace.”<br />
Lady Broncs finish second<br />
From staff reports<br />
<strong>The</strong> Lady Bronc golf team finished<br />
second at the two-day, sixteam<br />
tournament Thursday and<br />
Friday in Laramie.<br />
Alyse Springer shot a two-day<br />
score of 182 to medal, while Kelsey<br />
Boedeker also finished in the top 10<br />
with a 194. Individual places<br />
weren’t available.<br />
“I don’t think we were real<br />
focused the second day,” said<br />
<strong>Sheridan</strong> coach Larry Martoglio.<br />
“We have a lot of sickness going<br />
around, and mentally we weren’t<br />
real focused. We now have to work<br />
on refining some things, get our<br />
health back and get ready for state.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> state golf tournament is<br />
Thursday and Friday in Rock<br />
Springs.<br />
Martoglio said across the board,<br />
scores were higher than normal,<br />
which he attributed to the difficult<br />
Jacoby Golf Course.<br />
<strong>The</strong> sixth-place Broncs were led<br />
by a sophomore trio that has<br />
“improved immensely” since the<br />
start of the season, Martoglio said.<br />
Sophomore Danny Mediate fired<br />
an 85 Friday, while classmates C.J.<br />
Golay and Jordan Hofmeier shot an<br />
87 and 88, respectively. Golay led<br />
the Broncs with a two-day score of<br />
175.<br />
“I’m real proud of (Mediate’s)<br />
individual scores,” Martoglio said.<br />
“It’s his first year playing in tournaments,<br />
and he’s just staying very<br />
consistent and plays within his<br />
game.”<br />

SHS swims strong<br />
From staff reports<br />
<strong>The</strong> Lady Broncs were competitive<br />
at Riverton on Friday and<br />
Saturday.<br />
Coach Larry White said the<br />
team had a great performance with<br />
nearly all swimmers recording personal<br />
best times.<br />
“As a whole team, we had about<br />
a 95 percent drop in time,” White<br />
said.<br />
Junior Rachael Holst finished<br />
first in the 100-meter backstroke at<br />
the pre-invite meet Friday.<br />
Sophomore Mandy Forister was<br />
second in the 100 butterfly and<br />
Hattie Oatts was third in the 100<br />
freestyle.<br />
White said freshman Jessie<br />
Crider has been coming along well<br />
in the 100 meter backstroke, finishing<br />
in 10th overall.<br />
White also said sophomore<br />
Kelley Mattix has seen dramatic<br />
improvements in her 500 and 200<br />
meter freestyle times.<br />
Tennis<br />
(Continued from Page B1)<br />
“<strong>The</strong> coaches and team were all<br />
happy to see Eden Andrews return<br />
and be able to play after three days of<br />
illness. She played great. Eden had no<br />
trouble defeating her opponents and<br />
only dropped two games all day.<br />
Having only lost one match herself<br />
during the season, Eden won’t receive<br />
as high a seed at regional because her<br />
position (was) lost while she was sick,<br />
but she is definitely a top contender<br />
for the regional title.”<br />
Katie Belton and Martha Tate<br />
went 2-0 at No. 1 doubles, and Alyssa<br />
Hornay and Evelyn Ferries won both<br />
their matches at No. 2 doubles for<br />
their fourth win in a row.<br />
“(Belton and Tate) are on a roll<br />
and took both of their matches<br />
today,” Brooks said of the duo that<br />
will be seeded second at regionals.<br />
“<strong>The</strong>y have only one loss — to<br />
Natrona — for the season and continue<br />
to improve their strategy and doubles<br />
as the season has progressed.”<br />
“(Hornay and Ferries) have<br />
become such an exciting team to<br />
watch. If you had seen them at the<br />
beginning of the season, you see that<br />
they were lacking in teamwork, but<br />
they have gotten it together so well.”<br />
Brandon Kinsey and Mike Miller<br />
gave the Broncs their win against<br />
Powell at No. 2 doubles with a 6-3, 6-<br />
4 win. It was their second win in the<br />
past four matches.<br />
Nick Hill and Josh Fuller fought<br />
to a 4-6, 7-6(6), 7-6(4) win at No. 1<br />
doubles against Cody after a narrow<br />
loss to Powell, while Eric Brown<br />
gave <strong>Sheridan</strong> a win at No. 1 singles<br />
with a 6-7, 7-6, 6-2 decision.<br />
“(Fuller and Hill) are working<br />
At the Riverton Invitational on<br />
Saturday, <strong>Sheridan</strong> finished sixth<br />
out of 12 teams. East won the meet.<br />
“We did exceptional, especially<br />
after the long bus ride and a big<br />
competition the previous night,”<br />
White said. “Our team is in the<br />
exact spot I need them to be in —<br />
they are tired and broken down, but<br />
they are still finding a way to swim<br />
fast.”<br />
Holst was second in the 100<br />
meter freestyle, Forister finished<br />
seventh in the 100 fly and Oatts<br />
was fourth tin the 100 backstroke.<br />
<strong>The</strong> combination of Oatts,<br />
Forister, Holst and Ashley Alden<br />
finished fifth in the 400 meter<br />
freestyle relay.<br />
“I’m very proud of how they are<br />
doing,” White said. “I’ve also got a<br />
couple girls right on the verge of<br />
getting some qualifying times and<br />
being a big help at state.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> Lady Broncs return home<br />
this week hosting a dual against<br />
Cheyenne East at 5 p.m. on Friday.<br />
hard and will be a team to watch at<br />
the regional playoffs,” Brooks said.<br />
“(Brown) is beginning to play smart<br />
singles, continually becoming better<br />
at moving the ball side to side with<br />
consistency until he gets the opportunity<br />
to move to the net and put the<br />
ball away.”<br />

While defending the home course<br />
with a team win is nice, May said the<br />
Lady Broncs need to pick up the pace<br />
if they’re going to have a strong<br />
showing at the Oct. 22 state meet in<br />
Cheyenne.<br />
To do that, she added, the team<br />
needs to close the gap in times from<br />
No. 1 to No. 5.<br />
“I think the team is really coming<br />
together,” Forbes said. “But we’re<br />
going to have to be really competitive,<br />
and move up the team as a<br />
whole. It’s not just one or two runners<br />
that need to run faster, we all need to<br />
get together and pick up our pace and<br />
really push ourselves and push each<br />
other.”<br />
“I think we can do really well at<br />
state ... but we need to get our first<br />
five closer together,” added May, a<br />
junior. “We just need to work harder<br />
in practice, and do some speed work,<br />
so we can get up hills faster.”<br />
What’s pushed this team thus far<br />
— and should push it to a high finish<br />
at state — is the chemistry that’s<br />
developed among the runners.<br />
“It’s just a really good dynamic —<br />
we’re all really good friends,” said<br />
May, who went out for cross country<br />
for the first time because of the<br />
friendships she had with the other<br />
girls on the team. “That helps, it<br />
makes it easier to run together, and<br />
you push each other while you’re running.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> team aspect of cross country<br />
is what Forbes enjoys the most.<br />
“It’s very different than track,<br />
which is more of an individual sport,”<br />
she said. “Cross country really does<br />
seem like a team sport, and it’s nice to<br />
have that aspect. I’m really glad I<br />
went out because it’s been a lot of fun<br />
so far. “<br />
<strong>The</strong> Broncs may not being having<br />
the success of their female counterparts,<br />
but what the young team has<br />
shown is it’s able to hang with some<br />
of the top teams despite the inexperience.<br />
After a strong freshman campaign,<br />
Sorenson was thrust into the role as<br />
team leader, as well as the team’s top<br />

Lady Generals<br />
4-0 at tourney<br />
From staff reports<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Sheridan</strong> College volleyball<br />
team won its two matches Saturday<br />
to go 4-0 at a two-day tournament at<br />
Williston State (N.D.).<br />
<strong>The</strong> Lady Generals haven’t lost a<br />
match in the two years they’ve competed<br />
at the tournament. <strong>The</strong> victories<br />
improved <strong>Sheridan</strong> College to<br />
13-8 overall as it travels to the WYO-<br />
BRASKA Shootout in Torrington<br />
and Scottsbluff, Neb., Thursday<br />
through Saturday.<br />
“It’s always a great tournament<br />
and we get to see teams we don’t<br />
normally see,” said <strong>Sheridan</strong> College<br />
coach Todd Cooper. “It’s always<br />
very good competition, and we’ll see<br />
where we’re at going into our conference<br />
season.”<br />
Cooper liked what he saw at<br />
Williston State. He said going 4-0<br />
was a “confidence builder.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> Lady Generals topped<br />
Williston State 30-26, 30-28 in a<br />
sleepy 9 a.m. match Saturday.<br />
“It wasn’t the prettiest match,”<br />
Cooper said. “We didn’t come out<br />
with a lot of energy, but we maintained<br />
a one or two-point lead and<br />
were able to hold on to win.”<br />
Jaime Heiner led the Lady<br />
Generals with 10 kills and eight digs,<br />
Kaycee Blake had nine kills and six<br />
digs, Kayla Sterling scored seven<br />
kills and five digs, Abby Stewart<br />
recorded 14 digs, and Lindsey<br />
Stookey had 31 assists and five digs.<br />
<strong>Sheridan</strong> College topped the<br />
Mary (N.D.) junior varsity 30-15, 30-<br />
15 in the following match.<br />
“We were a little more awake and<br />
warmed up for that one,” Cooper<br />
said. “We played with a greater sense<br />
of urgency and more energy.”<br />
Blake had eight kills and five digs<br />
to pace the Lady Generals, while<br />
Kaci Switzer had four kills and four<br />
digs, Breanna Frie had four kills and<br />
five digs, Jessica Koch had six kills<br />
and two digs, Heiner had eight kills<br />
and eight digs, Stewart had 11 digs,<br />
and Stookey finished with 27 assists<br />
and seven digs.<br />

(Continued from Page B1)<br />
Neilsen said juniors Annie<br />
Lofgren and Courtney Johnson<br />
each played very well in the tourney.<br />
Johnson finished the tourney<br />
with 14 service aces and 22 kills.<br />
“It was very key, it kind of turns<br />
the tide of the day when you have<br />
that many (aces),” Neilsen said.<br />
Lofgren finished the day with 30<br />
assists, nine kills and six aces.<br />
“She just had a well-rounded<br />
day, pretty straight across the<br />
board, she just has so much hustle<br />
to her,” Neilsen said.<br />
Senior Jesse Fuller led the team<br />
with 26 kills and 23 digs. Senior<br />
Natalie Schreffler finished with 21<br />
kills and 10 service aces.<br />
Kelly Walsh took the top six spots<br />
in the boys’ jayvee race. James<br />
Jennings was <strong>Sheridan</strong>’s top finisher<br />

Arvada-Clearmont loses first match<br />
From staff reports<br />
<strong>The</strong> Lady Panther volleyball team suffered its<br />
first loss of the season Saturday<br />
in Clearmont.<br />
Coming off an emotional<br />
five-game win over Kaycee on<br />
Thursday, Arvada-Clearmont<br />
took Upton to five games,<br />
falling 25-17, 17-25, 23-25, 25-<br />
16, 15-10.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Lady Panthers now<br />
stand at 8-1 overall and 3-1 in<br />
the conference.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> girls weren’t on top of<br />
their game,” said Arvada-<br />
Clearmont coach Jamie Larson.<br />
“It is always difficult with the<br />
DENVER (AP) — <strong>The</strong> booing.<br />
<strong>The</strong> mistake-prone offense. <strong>The</strong><br />
embarrassing mistakes. This wasn’t<br />
how the Denver Broncos normally<br />
beat the San Diego Chargers at home.<br />
Jake Plummer and Mike<br />
Anderson struggled and the Broncos<br />
had to rely on their defense for big<br />
plays in their 20-17 comeback victory<br />
Sunday.<br />
<strong>The</strong> booing began in the second<br />
quarter and picked up at halftime after<br />
LaDainian Tomlinson scored two<br />
touchdowns to give San Diego — a<br />
team that had never even led at<br />
Invesco Field since it opened in 2001<br />
— a 14-3 halftime lead.<br />
Denver’s defense turned it around<br />
to start the third quarter, when Champ<br />
Bailey had a 25-yard interception<br />
return for a touchdown that cut the<br />
deficit to four.<br />
‘‘Champ Bailey won the game.<br />
Let’s call it like it is,’’ defensive end<br />
Trevor Pryce said. ‘‘It shows how one<br />
play can make such a big difference.’’<br />
<strong>The</strong> Broncos (1-1) allowed San<br />
Diego’s offense only 41 yards after<br />
that, leaving the defending AFC West<br />
champion Chargers 0-2.<br />
‘‘We can’t afford to drop any<br />
more,’’ Tomlinson said. ‘‘Oh-and-2<br />
is pretty much the max.’’<br />
Ron Dayne was the surprise star<br />
for Denver, coming off the bench and<br />
running six times for 38 yards in the<br />
(AP) — <strong>The</strong> first regular-season<br />
meeting between the Carolina<br />
Panthers and New England Patriots<br />
since their thrilling Super Bowl was<br />
no reprise.<br />
Neither team played that well,<br />
and Carolina did just enough to hand<br />
the New England Patriots a 27-17<br />
loss Sunday.<br />
Stephen Davis scored three<br />
touchdowns for the Panthers (1-1),<br />
who won in spite of Jake Delhomme.<br />
<strong>The</strong> quarterback was off all day and<br />
had an interception by Mike Vrable<br />
returned 24 yards for a touchdown.<br />
Delhomme finished 11-of-26 for 154<br />
yards and no touchdowns.<br />
Davis ran for 77 yards and scored<br />
on three 1-yard plunges in his second<br />
game back from microfracture<br />
surgery on his right knee. Davis<br />
became the first running back to<br />
score three TDs against the Patriots<br />
since Curtis Martin did it in 2000.<br />
Tom Brady finished 23-of-44 for<br />
270 yards, one interception and one<br />
fumble for the Patriots (1-1).<br />
• Colts 10, Jaguars 3: Edgerrin<br />
James ran for 128 yards, Ran<br />
Carthon scored on a 6-yard run midway<br />
through the fourth quarter and<br />
Indianapolis turned in a second<br />
straight solid defensive performance.<br />
<strong>The</strong> victory gave Indianapolis (2-<br />
0) an early edge in the AFC South<br />
title chase. Jacksonville (1-1) was<br />
the only team to beat Indianapolis at<br />
home last year.<br />
• Steelers 27, Texans 7: Ben<br />
Roethlisberger led Pittsburgh to<br />
scores on its first four drives, a pair<br />
of field goals sandwiched around<br />
touchdown passes of 16 and 14<br />
yards to Hines Ward.<br />
Pittsburgh (2-0) won its 16th<br />
straight regular-season game, matching<br />
the Miami teams of 1971-73 and<br />
1983-84 for the second-best streak in<br />
league history, and their eighth<br />
Jena<br />

first loss of the season, but we will recover.”<br />
Denver defense, Dayne save Broncos<br />
drive that set up Jason Elam’s winning<br />
41-yard field goal with 5 seconds<br />
left.<br />
On the winning drive, Dayne ran<br />
for 13, 8, 3, 3 and 1 yards. <strong>The</strong>n, on<br />
fourth-and-1 from the San Diego 33,<br />
he took a pitch around left end for 10<br />
yards to set up the field goal.<br />
‘‘It was a no-brainer to me, and<br />
our confidence level was there,’’<br />
coach Mike Shanahan said of the<br />
fourth-down gamble. ‘‘<strong>The</strong>re was no<br />
doubt in my mind that we were going<br />
to go for it.’’<br />
After Bailey’s interception,<br />
defense and special teams kept the<br />
Broncos in great field position<br />
through the third quarter, but the<br />
offense struggled.<br />
Anderson rushed for 49 yards on<br />
15 carries, Plummer threw his third<br />
interception of the season and completed<br />
23 of 37 passes for 248 yards<br />
and Elam missed a pair of 53-yard<br />
attempts.<br />

his first game against his former team.<br />
• Bengals 37, Vikings 8: Chad<br />
Johnson caught a 70-yard touchdown<br />
pass on the game’s second play, and<br />
the Bengals (2-0) had an easy time<br />
against the Vikings (0-2), rolling up<br />
337 yards and a 27-0 lead in the first<br />
half. Daunte Culpepper had a miserable<br />
time, throwing a career-high five<br />

offseason, but they easily outplayed<br />
Baltimore’s Pro Bowl-stocked unit<br />
with six sacks and two turnovers.<br />

“Tika Hopkin had one of<br />
her best matches of the season,”<br />
Larson said. “<strong>The</strong> girls played well all around.”<br />
‘‘<strong>The</strong> defense allowed our offense<br />
to hang in there,’’ Plummer said. ‘‘It<br />
still took us some time as an offense,<br />
took until the fourth quarter.’’<br />
<strong>The</strong>re were also some embarrassing<br />
mistakes.<br />
Midway through the fourth quarter,<br />
Broncos rookie Darrent Williams<br />
burst through untouched on a punt<br />
return for what should have been a<br />
touchdown. But the Broncos were<br />
penalized for too many men on the<br />
field after several players ran off the<br />
sideline to celebrate before Williams<br />
had reached the end zone.<br />
‘‘I’ve paid enough money to the<br />
National Football League without<br />
getting into that,’’ Shanahan said. ‘‘I<br />
don’t want to be fined anymore.’’<br />
<strong>The</strong> Broncos did manage to score<br />
on that drive to go ahead 17-14. <strong>The</strong><br />
Chargers answered with a field goal<br />
— their only decent drive of the second<br />
half — that tied the score and set<br />
things up for Dayne.<br />
Dayne, a disappointment in his<br />
five years with the Giants, was<br />
viewed as a long shot to make the roster,<br />
almost an afterthought in a training<br />
camp that included Maurice<br />
Clarett and Jerry Rice. But he made<br />
the team, and got his chance against<br />
the Chargers.<br />
‘‘I was just happy to get the<br />
opportunity to play, and to help my<br />
team win,’’ Dayne said.<br />

• Rams 17, Cardinals 12: Kurt<br />
Warner fell a few yards shy of a<br />
memorable comeback against his former<br />
team. Warner, 29-for-42 for 327<br />
yards in his first game against St.<br />
Louis (1-1), drove Arizona (0-2) to<br />
the 5-yard line in the final seconds.<br />
But a sack by Adam Archuleta and a<br />
false start by offensive tackle Leonard<br />

• Browns 26, Packers 24: Trent<br />
Dilfer won for the first time in nine<br />
trips to Lambeau Field, giving new<br />

excitement early in the<br />
fourth when, after a touchdown<br />
that put them ahead by four,<br />
DeBerry decided to go for 2 and<br />
called a trick play. Shaun Carney<br />
lateraled crossfield to offensive<br />

jogged in to make it 22-16.<br />
A little later, Wyoming<br />
scored a touchdown, but<br />
Yaussi’s kick failed to clear the<br />
line, and the score remained tied<br />
at 22.<br />
‘‘I’m not sure what happened<br />
there,’’ said Yaussi, who also<br />
missed a 38-yard field goal in the<br />
first quarter. ‘‘Something got<br />
messed up. Probably have to<br />
look at the film.’’<br />

LOUDON, N.H. (AP) — Ryan<br />
Newman stole a race Tony Stewart<br />
thought was his.<br />
Newman, who barely squeezed<br />
into the 10-man Chase for the championship,<br />
got off to a fast start in<br />
NASCAR’s 10-race playoff Sunday<br />
by outdueling points leader Stewart<br />
down the stretch to win the Sylvania<br />
300.<br />
Stewart, who started from the<br />
pole, dominated through much of the<br />
race, leading 173 of the 300 laps at<br />
New Hampshire International<br />
Speedway. But Newman won a late<br />
battle with Stewart, passing him on<br />
lap 199 and holding the top spot by<br />
two car-lengths.<br />
‘‘Tony wasn’t happy with the balance<br />
of his car at the end,’’ said<br />
Newman, who led 66 laps. ‘‘His car<br />
was going away at the right time for<br />
me. It was going away faster than<br />
mine. But that’s the best racing I’ve<br />
seen at this track.’’<br />
Following the final pit stops by<br />
the leaders, Newman found himself<br />
just ahead of Stewart when the green<br />
flag waved with 16 lap to go after the<br />
last of 10 caution flags.<br />
<strong>The</strong> streaking Stewart, on the way<br />
to his 13th consecutive finish of<br />
eighth or better, was relentless in trying<br />
to retake the lead, pulling up to<br />
the rear quarterpanel of Newman’s<br />
Penske Racing South Dodge time<br />
after time before finally slipping<br />
below him on the backstretch on lap<br />
292.<br />
But Newman, whose last win<br />
came a year ago in Dover, wouldn’t<br />
give up. He stayed with Stewart, got<br />
beneath the Joe Gibbs Racing<br />
Chevrolet on lap 299 and pulled<br />
ahead, staying out front to win by<br />
0.292-seconds.<br />
Chase contenders Matt Kenseth<br />
and Greg Biffle finished third and<br />
fourth, followed by Dale Earnhardt<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Sheridan</strong> <strong>Press</strong>, Monday, September 19, 2005 B3<br />
Glenn’s two-plus seasons of<br />
rebuilding at Wyoming.<br />
‘‘It’s a step forward, a big<br />
step forward,’’ Glenn said.<br />
Air Force, meanwhile, will<br />
try to regroup for a trip to Utah<br />
next Thursday.<br />
‘‘We know we’re as good a<br />
football team as they are,’’<br />
DeBerry said. ‘‘We’ve just got to<br />
get up off the floor.’’<br />
<strong>The</strong> Falcons can start by<br />
working on — what else? —<br />
their special teams. In addition to<br />
the missed <strong>extra</strong> point, they had a<br />
16-yard punt that gave Wyoming<br />
good field position for Yaussi to<br />
make it 13-7 with a 50-yard field<br />
goal to end the first half.<br />
More importantly, Ryan<br />
O’Dea mishit the kickoff after<br />
Air Force’s last touchdown,<br />
allowing Wyoming to start its<br />
winning drive at the 35. In such a<br />
tight game, a game in which Air<br />
Force outgained Wyoming 339-<br />
335, special teams made a huge<br />
difference.<br />
‘‘We were just so inconsistent<br />
in the kicking game,’’ DeBerry<br />
said.<br />
Bramlet went 19-for-29 for<br />
Newman outduels Stewart<br />
Jr., who is out of the Chase but running<br />
his first race with Tony Eury Jr.<br />
back as his crew chief.<br />
‘‘Tony and I are a good combination,’’<br />
said fan favorite Earnhardt,<br />
who has struggled through a disappointing<br />
season. ‘‘And we’re going<br />
to try to work toward next year.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se next nine races are real important<br />
and we’re going to try to build<br />
on that.’’<br />
Newman was ecstatic after his<br />
first win in 35 races, finally breaking<br />
through for a win after season-long<br />
struggles — and doing it in the<br />
biggest race so far this season.<br />
‘‘That was a long time without a<br />
Cup win,’’ said Newman, who drove<br />
part-time in the Busch Series this season<br />
and got a big boost by winning<br />
three straight races at one point.<br />
‘‘It felt so good to be able to win<br />
in the Busch Series and win three<br />
races over there. That builds confidence<br />
in a driver,’’ he said.<br />
As for his battle with Stewart,<br />
Newman said, ‘‘Getting back by him<br />
was a lot easier than him getting by<br />
me because I was giving him everything<br />
I could. I just did exactly the<br />
same thing to him that he did to me.’’<br />
Stewart was philosophic about<br />
losing the race in such a great battle.<br />
‘‘I got used up a little bit on running<br />
on the high side, but that was a<br />
good race,’’ he said. ‘‘But that was<br />
some kind of short track racing right<br />
there. That’s the way the Chase<br />
should start just like that.<br />
‘‘Ryan did an awesome job. We<br />
just couldn’t hold him off at the<br />
end.’’<br />
It was Newman’s 12th career win<br />
and, more important, moved him<br />
from 10th in the standings — a position<br />
he barely grabbed with a 12th<br />
place finish last week in Richmond<br />
— to a tie for third with teammate<br />
Rusty Wallace, both of them trailing<br />

touchdown pass to Jovon<br />
Bouknight (six catches, 132<br />
yards) to tie the game at 7 in the<br />
first quarter.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Falcons ran for 286<br />

a far cry from the 207 and<br />
231 they gained in their seasonopening<br />
wins over Washington<br />

stripped Kendrick and the<br />
Cowboys recovered at the Air<br />
Force 30. Five plays later, Wynel<br />
Seldon scored from 2 yards with<br />
9:41 left. Yaussi’s miss, though,<br />
kept the score tied at 22.<br />
‘‘I might have been a little<br />
more nervous for that last one,’’<br />
Yaussi said. ‘‘But I just went out<br />
and tried not to treat it any differently<br />
than normal — I just went<br />
out and made it.’’<br />
Stewart by 40 points and Greg Biffle<br />
by 20.<br />
Wallace finished sixth, with<br />
Chase contenders Mark Martin sixth,<br />
Jeremy Mayfield 16th, Carl Edwards<br />
19th and defending champion Kurt<br />
Busch, involved in a crash on the<br />
second lap of the race, 35th.<br />
Busch, who started his charge<br />
toward his title with a victory here<br />
last year in the opener of the inaugural<br />
Chase, was sent spinning into the<br />
wall in a collision with Scott Riggs<br />
on the second lap.<br />
<strong>The</strong> furious champion drove his<br />
battered, smoking car to the garage,<br />
then strode to Riggs’ pits, where he<br />
climbed up the pit box and spoke for<br />
a few moments to Riggs’ crew chief<br />
Rodney Childers.<br />
Asked what Busch said to him,<br />
Childers said, ‘‘<strong>The</strong>y’ve had some<br />
past experiences with stuff. He took<br />
us out at Indy and we forgave them.<br />
This was an accident and he’ll have<br />
to forgive us.’’<br />
Busch then stalked back to the<br />
garage, where his team worked furiously<br />
to get the car repaired. Busch,<br />
who began the day in fifth place, just<br />
20 points behind Stewart, finally<br />
returned to the race on lap 68, 66 laps<br />
behind the leaders. With the help of<br />
attrition, Busch worked his way up<br />
from 43rd to 35th, a difference of 24<br />
points.<br />
Tempers flared in the crash-filled<br />
race and Kasey Kahne, Michael<br />
Waltrip and Robby Gordon were all<br />
called into the NASCAR Hauler to<br />
be reprimanded following the race.<br />
Kahne drove into Kyle Busch on<br />
purpose after Busch put him in the<br />
wall, and Gordon tried to back into<br />
Waltrip after they collided, sending<br />
Gordon into the wall. Gordon<br />
missed, but stood on the track waiting<br />
for Waltrip and threw his helmet<br />
at Waltrip’s car as he drove by.<br />
USC’s top ranking sets record<br />

You will have many possibilities<br />
in the year ahead for improving your<br />
lot in life. However, problems will<br />
arise if you become involved with<br />
questionable individuals. Stick with<br />
tried and true associates who have<br />
character.<br />
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) --<br />
You have a knack today for squeezing<br />
yourself into corners and then<br />
ingeniously devising clever escape<br />
routes. Why don't you simply skip<br />
the corners and concentrate solely<br />
on the escapes?<br />
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) --<br />
Handing off the management of<br />
important matters onto others today<br />
could end up giving you more<br />
responsibilities and work than lessening<br />
things for you. Take care of<br />
your own affairs.<br />
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) --<br />
Subdue a tendency today to anticipate<br />
the worst in others when dealing<br />
with people and you'll save<br />
yourself a lot of grief. It would create<br />
problems for you that should<br />
never arise.<br />
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec.<br />
21) -- Try to maintain your usual<br />
cheerful attitude today, even if your<br />

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -<br />
- Although you might have quite a<br />
yen for gambling today, don't take a<br />
chance on things that are disproportionate<br />
to the potential gains. Betting<br />
dollars to win back dimes is simply<br />
foolish.<br />
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) --<br />
Sharp negotiating may be required<br />
today in order to protect your interests<br />
and those of loved ones. Steer<br />
clear of yelling tough demands on<br />
others and use your good judgment<br />
instead.<br />
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) --<br />
Even though you may feel your<br />
ideas are superior to those of others<br />
today, you won't get anywhere<br />
imposing them on your companions<br />
or associates. Use suggestions, not<br />
commands.<br />
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -<br />
Affectations, like trying to act like a<br />
big spender just to impress someone,<br />
will actually work against you<br />
instead today. Others will be<br />
impressed by your personality, not<br />
by what you have.<br />
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- If<br />

how would you continue?<br />
North's three-spade<br />
raise was aggressive, but<br />
he knew from the bidding<br />
that his partner would be<br />
able to place the cards<br />
well.<br />
With three top losers -two<br />
hearts and one club -you<br />
must play the spade<br />
suit without loss. That<br />
would normally require<br />
taking the finesse, but first<br />
count the points. You are<br />
missing only 18, yet West<br />
opened and East responded.<br />
So, those 18 are probably<br />
divided 12 and 6. East<br />

you don't have faith in your abilities<br />

and be the cause of all your frustrations.<br />
Turn this around and watch<br />
conditions suddenly brighten considerably<br />
for you.<br />
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Be<br />
on your guard today if you have to<br />
deal with someone who has caused<br />
you considerable problems in the<br />
past. This person may try something<br />
cute, but if you're watchful, you'll<br />
avert it.<br />
CANCER (June 21-July 22) --<br />
Disappointment is inevitable for you<br />
today if you set your sights totally<br />
on the materialistic side of life.<br />
Unless you win the lottery, nothing<br />
will be enough. Strive to enrich your<br />
spirit instead.<br />
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Smiles,<br />
not snarls, are needed today if you<br />
hope to win the support of others in<br />
order to accomplish your goals. Put<br />
your demands aside and begin by<br />
simply saying please.<br />
