MONDAY<br />

Estimated 5,000 attend Health Fair<br />

• Organizers:<br />

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 />

Locally, officials have learned from the storm that<br />

supposed safe havens can become dangerous cesspools.<br />

In the Bahamas, first in Rita’s path, few on<br />

Mayaguana Island bothered to board their windows or<br />

Baycaner Beach Resort.<br />

news release issued jointly by Kinskey and<br />

Cram.<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 />

<strong>The</strong> meeting will be from 5-7 p.m. at a<br />

location to be announced.<br />

where are reviewing plans that look good on paper and<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 />

when everything shuts down.<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 />

Charles Dumas, chief economist for<br />

Lombard Street Research Ltd.<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 />

House Republicans consider delaying<br />

$12.3 billion over 10 years.<br />

borrowing more money<br />

from other countries to pay for<br />

the costs of wars in Iraq and<br />

the wealthiest.<br />

He said Democrats should<br />

make those policies an issue in<br />

next year’s congressional elections.<br />

‘‘We depend on Japan, China,<br />

Arabia, and Korea primarily to<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 />

This year, at the Miss Rodeo Wyoming competition,<br />

a few contestants didn’t recite their speech perfectly,<br />

a few were awkward when modeling, and a<br />

each one could ride a horse to a sliding stop with a<br />

set of elevens left in the arena dirt and cue her horse<br />

to spin and roll back at the end of their rundowns.<br />

Obviously some better than others, as only one<br />

Miss Rodeo Wyoming was crowned. Wyoming can<br />

be assured that this Cowboy State is being well-represented<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 />

shrub. Let me share it<br />

with you.<br />

Elderberries grow wild in<br />

much of North America and<br />

provide birds with food, habitat<br />

and cover. <strong>The</strong> type known<br />

as American elder (Sambucus<br />

canadensis) is the best for<br />

attracting birds.<br />

<strong>The</strong> June and July blooms of this species resemble<br />

Queen Anne's lace. This flat flower cluster also attracts<br />

butterflies.<br />

Following the blossoms, glossy purplish-black fruit<br />

ripens in August and September. Robins, orioles, tan-<br />

WVIN to meet Friday and Saturday<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 />

Meetings are open to the public.<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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

Pokes win conference opener<br />

Barbara J. Perenic/<strong>The</strong> Laramie Boomerang<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 />

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 />

being sick — finished 14th at<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 />

(Continued from Page B1)<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 />

TR<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 />

in seventh place.<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 />

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 />

tying his career-best for TD passes.<br />

Owens had five catches for 143 yards<br />

— all in the opening 19 minutes — in<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 />

interceptions, three to Deltha O’Neal.<br />

Rob Bironas kicked field goals of<br />

39, 29 and 47 yards as the NFL’s<br />

<strong>The</strong> rebuilding Titans (1-1) had<br />

replaced five starters on defense this<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 />

atone for six fumbles last week in an<br />

embarrassing loss to Kansas City.<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 />

Davis preserved the Rams’ victory.<br />

• Browns 26, Packers 24: Trent<br />

Dilfer won for the first time in nine<br />

trips to Lambeau Field, giving new<br />

coach Romeo Crennel his first win<br />

for Cleveland (1-1). Dilfer threw an<br />

<strong>The</strong> Falcons started the <strong>extra</strong>point<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 />

lineman Robert Kraay, who<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 />

(AP) — Southern California’s<br />

run at No. 1 in <strong>The</strong> Associated<br />

<strong>Press</strong> Top 25 reached a recordbreaking<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 />

yards, but managed only 53 passing,<br />

a far cry from the 207 and<br />

231 they gained in their seasonopening<br />

wins over Washington<br />

and San Diego State.<br />

Wyoming’s John Flora was<br />

the defensive player of the game.<br />

He had a sack and forced fumble<br />

on Carney in the third quarter.<br />

22-16 early in the fourth, Flora<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 />

to get tougher over the next two<br />

weeks as USC hits the road. <strong>The</strong><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 />

North's three-spade<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 />

Construction materials,<br />

doors, windows, sinks,<br />

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

today, uncertainties will take over<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 />

Know where to look for romance<br />

and you'll find it. <strong>The</strong> Astro-Graph<br />

for you. Mail $2.75 to Matchmaker,<br />
