Immigration law changes proposed

BY MELODY VALLIEU Staff Writer vallieu@tdnpublishing.com She has used her voice for good all of her adult life. From singing in the Troy Strawberry Festival Choir to helping others find theirs with the English language, Teresa Massey has spent her life helping others. Massey, who was born and raised in Troy and is a Troy High School graduate, said being a hometown girl has helped with her desire to volunteer, as she knows many people and sees the needs of the area. She began volunteering with Troy Literacy Council — which is celebrating its 40th anniversary — in 1992, helping adults in Troy and Miami County with basic literacy skills or teaching those who wish to learn English as a second language. As a tutor with TLC, Massey remembers her first student, a Vietnamese girl she spent five years helping. “The first time we met, we didn’t understand each other — period,” Massey said. “But I realized if I wrote it down, she understood. Each student varies in their needs, you just have to figure it out.” However, throughout their time together, Massey said the two worked well together and Massey also helped her

Days without power drag on NEW YORK (AP) — New Yorkers railed Sunday against a utility that has lagged behind others in restoring power two weeks after the superstorm that socked the region, criticizing its slow pace as well as a dearth of information. About 120,000 customers in New York and New Jersey remained without power Sunday, including tens of thousands of homes and businesses that were too damaged to connect to power even if it was running in their neighborhood. More than 8 million lost power during the storm, and some during a later nor’easter. See Page 9.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Two senators on opposite sides of the aisle are proposing comprehensive changes to the immigration laws that would include a pathway to citizenship for the estimated 11 million illegal immigrants now in the United States. Democrat Chuck Schumer of New York and Republican Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, who promoted similar proposals on separate Sunday news shows said that no path to citizenship would be available until the country’s borders were secure. Only then could those in the U.S. without authorization “come out of the shadows, get biometrically identified, start paying taxes, pay a fine for the law they broke,” Graham told CBS’ “Face the Nation.” ”They can’t stay unless they learn our language, and they have to get in the back of line before they become citizens. They can’t cut in front of the line regarding people who are doing it right and it can take over a decade to get their green card.” A green card grants permanent residency status a step toward citizenship. Schumer told NBC’s “Meet the Press” that he and Graham have resumed talks on immigration policy that broke off two years ago and “have put together a comprehensive detailed blueprint on immigration reform” that has “the real potential for bipartisan support based on the theory that most Americans are for legal immigration, but very much against illegal immigration.” Graham, however, made no mention of working with the chairman of the Senate Judiciary subcommittee on immigration, refugees and border security. Immigration policy, largely ignored during President Barack Obama’s first four years in office, has re-emerged as a major issue as Republicans seek ways to rebound from their election performance. More than 70 percent of Hispanic voters supported Obama, who has been more open than Republicans to comprehensive overhaul of immigration laws. Three days after Tuesday’s election, House Speaker John Boehner, ROhio, said it was time to

She said an assessment is first done on every student to better understand their level of knowledge. “Many tutors will ask their students what they are interested in because people will learn better if they are learning about what they want to learn,” Massey said. She said the newspaper often is a tool used to help students learn. Massey said the needs of students vary, and she once had a woman that wanted to learn enough to read children’s books to her young grandson. “We may only help 2030 people a year, but I know that you are not just helping that person,” Massey said. “You’re helping their family, and other people they are in contact with are benefited. In turn, they are touching the lives of many people around them.” Lilo Myers, a longtime volunteer and past president, agrees. “Troy Literacy has touched many lives over the past 40 years. When I researched our archives I discovered that over 350 tutor volunteers have served this organization in the past 40 years. Some

stayed only a short time, others served for many years,” Myers said. “As Teresa (Massey) once stated, ‘A tutor does not only touch the life of the adult student but also the lives of that student’s family.’ “In most instances, a tutor becomes a friend and mentor to the student. Whether a student is improving upon basic literacy skills, or is learning English as a second language, this new found knowledge does change people’s lives for the better.” Over the years, the nonprofit has received funding from The Troy Foundation, Altrusa International Foundation, Miami County Foundation, the Dollar General Foundation and individual donors. The Troy-Hayner Cultural Center provides rooms for tutors to provided one-onone tutoring, classroom tutoring and monthly meetings. With an influx of people coming to the area from other countries for jobs in the county, the organization has began offering actual classes for those wishing to learn English as a second language. “It’s amazing how many people come and want to learn English as a second

language. It used to be we helped a lot more adults with basic literacy. Anymore, it’s about 50 percent people wanting to learn English as a second language,” Massey said. Massey said the volunteer tutors within the organization work well with each other and help each other come up with new and better ways to help students. Tutors also use copies of items such as real medical forms and paycheck stubs to help students practice forms they may use in their everyday life, according to Massey. She said becoming a tutor also has become easier over the years. Instead of the 12-hour classroom course of yesteryear, the training is done on the computer on the tutor’s own time. Massey said tutors always are needed for the organization, and invites anyone interested to make contact. “Volunteers are the backbone of the organization,” she said. Those interested in learning more about the Troy Literacy Council — whether to become a tutor or a student — should call (937) 660-3170 and leave a message.

ONLINE POLL

(WWW.TROYDAILYNEWS.COM)

Question: Overall, are you happy with the 2012 election results?

Watch for final poll results in Sunday’s Miami Valley Sunday News.

Watch for a new poll question in Sunday’s Miami Valley Sunday News.

PERSPECTIVE

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” — First Amendment, U.S. Constitution

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP Wisconsin State Journal, Madison, on campaign disclosure: Six billion dollars. That’s how much money campaigns and their supporters are expected to spend on the 2012 elections, according to the latest estimate by the Center for Responsive Politics. It’s a huge and stunning amount that’s only likely to increase in future elections. So voters at least deserve to know where all the big money is coming from. The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that money is essentially speech that must be allowed. But the same court has encouraged Congress to require more disclosure of the donors who are doing the speaking. Money that goes directly to the candidates is already tracked. But money spent by outside groups that mostly attack political opponents is harder to identify. This includes groups such as Americans for Prosperity on the right and the Greater Wisconsin Committee on the left. Congress should require these shadowy organizations to disclose all of their donors who give $10,000 or more. That won’t take the money out of politics. But it will give As I citizens more information about who is trying to See It influence their votes.

The frequently mundane issue of “standing,” as it’s called, takes on a deeper significance when considered in the context of the legality of the government spying via the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, expanded in 2008. Joseph Heller, author of the classic novel “Catch-22,” could hardly have imagined a plot so absurd and canted against the civil rights of ordinary people whose emails and calls are likely being monitored by the government. Think about it: You know the government is conducting wide-ranging, warrantless searches of communication involving at least one party on foreign soil. You suspect your communications are being captured in the dragnet, but you’re not sure. Since the information is being collected for intelligence purposes — not prosecution where it likely eventually would become public — how can you ever know? … After arguments, court observers had mixed perceptions on how justices received the arguments. Some said the court seemed skeptical about the government’s request that the case be thrown out over standing. Others believe the case faces an uphill battle. While that may not help the litigants in the case recently argued before the court, lawmakers could — and should — put guardrails in place that would rein in the danger of a government spying program with little oversight.

DOONESBURY

Give me a jumbo gumbo and don’t skimp on the catfish When an honest-to-goodness Cajun invites you to a crawfish boil, you go. Our friends live 40 miles north of Baton Rouge and are Louisianans through and through. Miss Sydney attended a Catholic girls’ school and then a Catholic women’s college. Cap’n Al flew for Delta for thirty years, beginning in basic-bones DC-3s and ending up an international captain on 747s. They have four children, two boys and two girls. The boys followed their father into the aviation business. One flies aerobatics and the other is also a Delta captain. Jeff, the Delta captain, is so thoroughly Cajun I doubt if Jean Lafitte could understand him. He swallows most of his vowels and the consonants end up pretty well chewed up, too. Once I told him I was living for the day I got on a Delta flight and heard from the cockpit, “Thiz ya cap’n speakin’. We be fline at terty-fie towsan fee taday.” “Mahl,” he replied, “mosely they doune le me tak on da radyo.” While this trio of men are fabulous pilots, Miss Sydney is no slouch. She runs the household with a sure hand born of rearing four kids while the Cap’n was flying off to Venezuela. Although there are usually two or three

Marla Boone Troy Daily News Columnist kids, half a dozen grandkids, a respectable assortment of disreputable dogs, and perhaps a stray goat or pet pony around, Sydney is the pool of serenity in this teeming eddy. Sydney’s three brothers are another matter. They are, if possible, more Cajun in their speech than Jeff. They should come with subtitles. Al and Sydney routinely ask between 100-200 people to their legendary crawfish boils. Usually, the event is held on Sunday, so the invitation reads “Be here by noon on Friday.” Friday is when things start hoppin’. A person can only hope the crawfish supply and hospitality hold out. For these people can whip up a plate of grub. It’s obvious this family is serious about its food when the brothers show up and off-load three

— Joe, Pete and Jackie Ording Troy

hydraulically controlled vented vats for mixing the boil. That’s for Sunday, though. Friday is catfish fryin’ night. Brother John coats filets in his secret breading and then submerges them into a cauldron of bubbling oil. Entire schools of catfish pass through the deep fryer. They have not died in vain. Everyone at the party would love to have the recipe but no one can understand John except Sydney and she isn’t telling. There is almost always a guitar picker in the crowd. Tables are cleared away and the dancing starts. Louisiana dancing is sort of like the cooking … unstructured, hard to master, impossible to resist. Saturday is gumbo day. File´ gumbo, to be precise. Brother Mike is in charge of the file´ and is determined it will be as wellaccepted as the catfish. No worries. The gumbo is put together in huge stainless steel pots. It looks like enough gumbo to feed all of East Feliciana Parish but every morsel disappears into the maws of Yankees and other infidels. The brothers are making quick converts. Finally is it crawfish boil day. Corn, onions, lemons, crawfish, potatoes, and who knows what else are thrown into the vats and

cooked until Brother Jerry says it’s done. The hydraulic hoist is used to raise the vats and drain the liquid. By this time, we acolytes have covered a couple of dozen long tables with white butcher paper. The vats are emptied onto the tables and the pluckin’ and suckin’ commences. Pluckin’ and suckin’ is a messy business. We should all be wearing those plastic bunny suits the CSI guys wear on TV. There is nothing intuitive about eating crawfish. Schooling in the art is required, preferably by a native-born Louisiana resident. You must pluck the head off and suck out the delicious body meat. It’s enough to make a person think better of Huey Long. No weekend in Jackson, Louisiana is complete without a visit to F.S. Williams General Store just this side of Clinton. Drive 7 miles past the prison, turn left and you’re there. Continued two weeks from today: Saturday afternoon just this side of Clinton. (A salute to all veterans and active military personnel today. We are grateful for your service and selfless dedication to duty.)

You may find solace through grief counseling Dear Annie: When my older sister was dying a year ago, our entire family supported her with calls and visits with the exception of our father and half-brother (my mother's son from a previous marriage). They also didn't attend the funeral and offered no explanation for their absence. Five months later, another sister died. "Dee" never married, and our father was her legal next-of-kin and responsible for the funeral arrangements. Dad refused our help and then denied us any information with the exception of our half-brother. My father had Dee cremated and then mailed her ashes to our half-brother, who then dumped them in his backyard. We learned of this after the fact. We don't know why this happened, but we suspect it was a collaborative effort between our father's third wife, 20 years his junior, and our half-brother's wife, 11 years his senior. The two of them are close in age and good friends. They are also controlling, manipulative and spiteful. Is there any way to find out why our father turned his back on his own flesh and blood to allow his stepson to perform such a vile and hateful act? How do we find closure? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Grieving Brother Dear Grieving: Our deepest condolences on the loss of your sisters. Your grief is undoubtedly compounded by the astonishing lack of compassion shown by your father and half-brother. There is no explanation for such contemptuous behavior, and it serves no purpose to waste time and energy trying to figure these people out. In fact, upsetting you may be one of their goals. Consider grief counseling through any local hospital, and please know that your sisters are at peace regardless of the circumstances. Dear Annie: I received two different invitations: one for a birthday party and the other for an engagement party. Both stated "no gifts, please." Yet on arrival, there were tons of gifts. I was astounded by this and asked, "What's with the gifts?" wondering whether I missed something in their message. I was assured by those who set up the invites that they asked for no gifts and that if I wanted, I could get one the next day. Does that mean gifts were expected after all? At the engagement party, I asked a family member why she brought a gift, and she boldly replied, "Because I wanted to." As more gifts piled on, I began to feel humiliated, embarrassed and angry. In order not to spoil the occasion, I left. What is the proper etiquette in situations like this? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; An Avid Annie Fan Dear Avid: People routinely ignore "No Gifts" requests, which not only upsets obedient nongivers, but can also embarrass and upset the recipients. This is another reason why gifts should not be mentioned on any invitations other than those for showers, where gifts are, in fact, expected. You did nothing wrong. If it happens again, please pay no attention to those who cannot follow directions. Dear Annie: I was surprised to read the letter from "Pastor's Wife in the Northwest," whose husband wasn't paid for his wedding services. The churches I have been affiliated with have a set of prices for weddings and specifically list the cost for the use of the sanctuary, the organist, rehearsals, cleanup and the pastor. The fees must be paid a week before the ceremony. Members of the congregation may have fees waived, and needy persons may receive a discount. The pastor may waive his fees entirely, but that is up to him. She might want to call other pastors in their community to see what they do. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; P.

ARLO & JANIS

HOROSCOPE BY FRANCES DRAKE For Tuesday, Nov. 13, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) The New Moon today makes this the best day all year to think about how to reduce your debt and secure a better footing with shared property. What can you do to begin? TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This is the perfect day to ask yourself how you can improve your partnerships or closest relationships. The New Moon is the perfect time to make resolutions. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Ask yourself what you can do to improve your job and also what you can do to improve your health. Stop doing what is negative, and start doing what is positive. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) We are a hardworking society; nevertheless, play is just as important to maintain a healthy balance in our lives. Do you give yourself enough play time? LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) What can you do to improve where you live so you’re happier at home? And further, what can you do to improve relations with family members? VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Every day, we talk to others. The New Moon today might be one of the best days all year for you to ask yourself how you can improve your daily communications. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You’ll feel happier if you feel more in control of your cash flow and your possessions. Do you need to repair things you own? Can you find a better use for your money? SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Take a realistic look in the mirror and ask yourself how you can improve the image you create in the world. (You never get a second chance to make a first impression.) SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) We all believe in something, even if we believe we don’t believe. This is a good day to ask yourself what guiding principles help you live your life with selfrespect. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Friends are important. Are you pleased with your friends? Do you hang out with quality people? Are you friendly? AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) What can you do to enjoy the best relationship possible with authority figures in your life — parents, bosses, teachers, VIPs and the police. Dealing with authority can be tricky. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) What further learning or training could you get that will enrich your life or improve your job skills? Think about this today. YOU BORN TODAY You make insightful observations about the society around you because you’re always involved and you care. You can be frank and astute, but you also can be very witty. You are convincing because you are personally convinced of your own point of view. Above all, you’re a realist. The next year is the beginning of a new nine-year cycle for you. Open any door!

TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Monday, Nov. 12, the 317th day of 2012. There are 49 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Nov. 12, 1942, the World War II naval Battle of Guadalcanal began. (The Allies ended up winning a major victory over Japanese forces.) On this date: In 1787, severe flooding struck Dublin, Ireland, as the River Liffey rose.

In 1987, the American Medical Association issued a policy statement saying it was unethical for a doctor to refuse to treat someone solely because that person had AIDS or was HIV-positive. In 1990, Japanese Emperor Akihito formally assumed the Chrysanthemum Throne. Actress Eve Arden died in Beverly Hills, Calif. at age 82. Ten years ago: In an

audiotaped message, a voice purported to be that of Osama bin Laden praised terrorist strikes in Bali and Moscow and threatened Western nations over any attack on Iraq. Former FBI Director William Webster resigned under pressure as head of a special accounting oversight board created by Congress to rebuild public confidence shaken by a cascade of business scandals.

NEW YORK (AP) — New Yorkers railed Sunday against a utility that has lagged behind others in restoring power two weeks after the superstorm that socked the region, criticizing its slow pace as well as a dearth of information. About 120,000 customers in New York and New Jersey remained without power Sunday, including tens of thousands of homes and businesses that were too damaged to connect to power even if it was running in their neighborhood. More than 8 million lost power during the storm, and some during a later nor’easter. Separately, U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano visited with disaster-relief workers Sunday in Staten Island’s Midland Beach neighborhood, which is still devastated two weeks after Sandy hit. The lack of power restoration for a relative few in the densely populated region at the heart of the storm reinforced Sandy’s fractured effect on the area: tragic and vicious to some, merely a nuisance to others. Perhaps none of the utilities have drawn criticism as widespread, or as harsh, as the Long Island Power Authority. Nearly 50,000 of the homes and businesses it serves were still without power Sunday evening, and 55,000 more couldn’t safely connect even though their local grids were back online because their wiring and other equipment had been flooded. It would need to be repaired or inspected before those homes could regain power, LIPA said. “We certainly understand the frustration that’s out there,” LIPA’s chief operating officer, Michael Hervey, said in a conference call late Sunday. But, he said, the storm had been worse than expected, no utility had as many workers in place beforehand as it would have liked, and the power was coming back rap-

CINCINNATI (AP) — A.J. Green was partly correct. The defending Super Bowl champions do have a lot of holes on the defense. And everywhere else, it turns out. Andy Dalton threw a careerhigh four touchdown passes each to a different receiver and the Cincinnati Bengals ended their four-game losing streak by beating the reeling New York Giants 31-13 on Sunday. The Bengals (4-5) sustained their season by taking advantage of a championship team that appears to have hit bottom. Eli Manning threw a pair of interceptions that led to third-

quarter touchdowns, and New York (6-4) had four turnovers in the second half overall. “That’s what won the game for us, getting the ball with great field position and scoring when we got down there,” said Dalton, who was 21 of 30 for 199 yards without a sack or interception. The talk heading into the game was generated by Green, who suggested to a New York radio station that the Giants “have a lot of holes” on their defense.

MIAMI COUNTY

With a 51-8 win against Norwood, Milton-Union advanced to the regional finals game in Division IV Region 16, where the Bulldogs will play No. 1 seeded Clinton Massie on Friday night. Also advancing in impressive fashion was Covington in Division V Region 20. The Buccs cashed in early and often in a 58-14 victory over No. 2 seeded Cincinnati Summit Country Day in the semifinals game at Centerville High

School. Now, the Buccs will face Coldwater Saturday night. The Ohio High School Athletic Association announced where the games will be played Sunday afternoon. The MiltonUnion-Massie game will be played at 7:30 p.m. Friday at Centerville High School. The Covington-Coldwater game will take place at Welcome Stadium at 7 p.m. Saturday in Dayton. The Bulldogs (10-2) — ranked seventh in their region — are the lowest seed remain-

ing in all of Division IV, but the way they have won their first two games has been dominant. Milton has churned out more than 400 yards on the ground in each of its first two playoff games, while its defense has only given up 22 points. The result has been two lopsided victories for Milton over teams seeded much higher than them. The Buccs (12-0) have been equally impressive in their first two postseason games, scoring more than 50 points in each and playing rock-solid defense.

NEW YORK (AP) — Kansas State and Oregon are now on course to play for the BCS national championship. After Alabama was upset by Texas A&M, the new BCS standings have the Wildcats (.9674) first and the Ducks (.9497) second. Notre Dame (.9396) is third, not too far behind, but most likely in need of a loss by Oregon or Kansas State to reach the title game on Jan. 7 in Miami. “These teams are in their order and the only way that order changes is if somebody gets beat,” said Jerry Palm, of CBS Sports and collegebcs.com. As for Alabama’s run at three championships in four seasons, and the Southeastern Conference’s string of six straight BCS titles, both are in peril. Five SEC teams follow Alabama in the standings: Georgia, Florida, LSU, Texas A&M and South Carolina. But it will take a couple of upsets to give the SEC champion a shot to reach the BCS title game. Kansas State is second in both BCS polls the coaches’ and Harris and in the computer rankings. The Wildcats have two games left, at Baylor on Saturday and home against Texas on Dec. 1, the day of most of the conference championship games. Oregon is first in the both polls and fourth in the computer ratings. The Ducks have two more regularseason games left, against Stanford on Saturday and the next week at Oregon State. They can clinch the Pac-12 North and a spot in the conference title game with a win against Stanford. If they get there, the Ducks would play either UCLA or Southern California in the league title game. If the Ducks and Wildcats can avoid the type of upset that dropped Alabama and there are plenty of good teams left on their schedules they will play for the national title.

Thomas, No. 4 OSU streak past Albany Keselowski in good position for title A chaotic race at Phoenix blew NASCAR's championship fight wide open Sunday, moving Brad Keselowski to the brink of a first Sprint Cup title for himself and team owner Roger Penske. See Page 14.

COLUMBUS (AP) — Late in the first half, with his team trying but failing to create any opportunities, Ohio State coach Thad Matta called a timeout. “I saw Thad jump off the bench and it looked like he had a 40-inch vertical,” Albany coach Will Brown said. “I saw how animated he was. That timeout, obviously, I think that lit a fire under them.”

Deshaun Thomas scored 13 of his 19 points in what turned out to be a 17-2 run to end of the half, leading No. 4 Ohio State to an 82-60 victory over the Great Danes on Sunday in the Buckeyes’ belated season opener. The Buckeyes were supposed to play on Friday night against Marquette in Charleston, S.C., aboard the USS Yorktown, but condensation on the court led to

that game being canceled. “When they announced we weren’t going to play I looked at some of the crowd and some of the faces and I felt so bad that we didn’t get to play,” said Lenzelle Smith Jr., who added 18 points. “They go to war for us every day. I was thinking the least we could do was play a game for them.” Instead, the Buckeyes chan-

neled their desire to play into their next game. “They were itching to play,” Matta said. Thomas, one of the stars of the Buckeyes’ Final Four run last season, hit just one of his first seven shots and Ohio State trailed 23-22 late in half. But he asserted himself as the Buckeyes

Bengals ■ CONTINUED FROM 13 “I just feel like this is a good stepping block for us,” said Green, who had the first of the four TDs. “I put a lot of pressure on myself.” Now, the Giants are starting to feel a little pressure themselves. They head into their off week with back-to-back losses and a lot of issues, especially on offense. Manning had another subpar game, failing to live up his family legacy of beating the Bengals. Older brother Peyton improved to 8-0 against Cincinnati on the same field a week earlier, leading Denver to a 31-23 win. This one was surprisingly lopsided as the Giants hurt themselves with bad passes, broken coverages, a dropped touchdown pass and penalties in front of a less-than-capacity crowd of 56,614.

“No, I’m not worried,” Manning said. “Over the years, we’ve gone through stretches where we haven’t played our best football and we’ve been able to bounce out of that, and that’s what’s going on right now.” Manning was sacked a season-high four times by a defense that hardly touched his brother. He also threw two interceptions under pressure that led to Bengals TDs and a 31-6 lead in the third quarter. Manning finished 29 of 46 for 215 yards, falling to 1-2 career against Cincinnati. Manning threw for only 125 yards, his fewest in four years, during a sloppy 24-20 loss to the Steelers last Sunday that finished a week of turmoil from Superstorm Sandy. The Giants badly wanted to get back in form before their bye week. Instead, they were worse. The Giants gave up a 68yard punt return, Victor

■ College Basketball

Cruz dropped a pass at the goal line, and New York’s four turnovers in a horrific second half helped the Bengals pull away. “Just a little subpar from what we’re used to,” said Cruz, who had three catches for only 26 yards. “I don’t know how to explain it. I don’t know what’s going on. I don’t know what’s wrong.” Everything went wrong, right from the start. Cincinnati’s first big play was made by their Pro Bowl receiver, who got a little rise out of the Giants with his comment about the holes in their defense. Five plays into the game, he found a huge one. Cornerback Corey Webster let him go down the sideline, expecting help in coverage that never came. Green was wide open for a 56-yard touchdown catch. “It’s tough, painful and an embarrassment,” Webster said. The Giants have given up

39 passes of 20 yards or more, 10 for touchdowns. Green has a touchdown catch in eight straight games, tying T.J. Houshmandzadeh for the second-longest streak in club history. Green was diplomatic, saying his pregame comments were misconstrued as a criticism. “Their defense is great,” said Green, who had seven catches for a game-high 85 yards. “We were able to break some big plays.” There were openings for all of Dalton’s receivers. Andrew Hawkins made a one-handed catch for an 11yard touchdown that came off another Giants mistake. Steve Weatherford’s punt went out of bounds at the Cincinnati 14-yard line, but a penalty forced a rekick. Adam “Pacman” Jones slipped through two defenders for a 68-yard return that set up the score.

Buckeyes ■ CONTINUED FROM 13 took control. Matta’s angry timeout talk ignited the Buckeyes. “He just told us to play hard,” said Thomas, a junior who had contemplated jumping to the NBA before electing to return to Ohio State. “He said, ‘Don’t let up.’ As a team we just kept saying, ‘Boost it up. Let’s get (the lead) to 30.’” Aaron Craft, considered an outside-shooting liability a year ago, hit 5 of 7 3-pointers for a career-high 20 points to go with seven assists. Asked he was now the Buckeyes’ go-to guy on perimeter shooting, Craft cracked, “Could you say that again, please?” Nodding to Thomas and Smith, he added, “These guys didn’t hear you.” Craft spent untold hours working on his shot for several months. It paid off in more confidence, not only for him but also by his teammates in Craft’s shooting. “Teammates have to trust me to shoot the ball as well, too,” he said. “So throughout this summer and fall, I was trying to get their confidence in me as well. They did a good job of finding me. You get a lot of open shots when guys are driving and kicking (out

passes). It’s not too difficult to knock down wide-open shots when you’ve got great players around you.” Smith was 8 of 11 from the field, making both 3s he attempted. The Buckeyes shot 57 percent from the field (32 of 56) and made 12 of 20 shots behind the arc. Smith gave Ohio State a 39-25 lead at the halftime buzzer by swishing a 3pointer from the right wing off a pass from Craft. Over the last 4:46 of the half during the Ohio State run, the Buckeyes hit 6 of 8 shots from the field to Albany’s 0 for 4, didn’t have a turnover and outrebounded the Great Danes 6-2. Ohio State then opened the second half by scoring eight of the first 10 points to take a 20-point lead. Craft and Ross hit 3s to make it 55-33. The lead hovered around 20 the rest of the game. Matta conceded that his timeout might have turned the game around. “It definitely sparked a run,” he said, adding that he was unhappy with how the Buckeyes were handling adversity on the court. “Our team’s not good enough to let one negative compound to another negative. I kind of got into them and said, ‘Hey, let’s go.’”

Labor talks resume after 1-day break NEW YORK (AP) — NHL owners and players are back at the bargaining table after a one-day break. Negotiations began Sunday afternoon at the NHL office in Manhattan. Talks took place for four straight days earlier this week before heated discussions ended the run Friday night. The sides were in contact Saturday, leading to an informal lunch in the afternoon. The decision to

formally meet again came Sunday morning. A few hours into Friday’s session, negotiations soured over the core economic differences that separate the sides and threaten the season completely. The lockout is in its 57th day and has already caused the NHL to call off 327 regular-season games, including the New Year’s Day Winter Classic. A lockout wiped out the entire 2004-05 season.

AVONDALE, Ariz. (AP) — When the fighting stopped, the oil had dried and the last of the wrecked cars had been towed away, Brad Keselowski found himself on the brink of a first Sprint Cup title for himself and team owner Roger Penske. Only he wasn’t in a celebratory mood. He entered Sunday’s at Phoenix race International Raceway trailing five-time champion Jimmie Johnson by seven points and had the better car all day. And moments after Keselowski raced his way into the lead, a blown tire caused Johnson to crash and take his battered car to the garage for repairs. “I wanted to take the points lead by winning a race and not relying on a failure,” Keselowski said. It was just the beginning of the drama in the most chaotic race of the year. One many fans will likely call the best of the season. Perhaps for all the wrong reasons, and that’s what had Keselowski so upset. “I’m more just disappointed in the quality of racing that we saw,” he said. “I thought it was absolutely ridiculous, and I was ashamed to be a part of it.” Kevin Harvick snapped a 44-race losing streak by beating Kyle Busch on a pair of late restarts, and crossing the finish line ahead of a melee that broke out because NASCAR failed to throw a final caution flag for an oil spill on the track. It was the final exclamation point in a sequence that included Jeff Gordon slowing his car on the track to wait for Clint Bowyer so he could intentionally wreck him as retaliation for several weeks of on-track contact between the two.

Kevin Harvick celebrates with his pit crew in victory lane after his win at the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series auto race at Phoenix International Raceway Sunday in Avondale, Ariz. It led to a full brawl inside the garage between the crews for the two drivers, with Bowyer sprinting from his car to join the fracas. He was held back by NASCAR officials from entering Gordon’s hauler. “It’s pretty embarrassing,” Bowyer said. “For a four-time champion, and what I consider one of the best this sport’s ever seen to act like this is pretty ridiculous.” Both drivers and their crew chiefs were called to the NASCAR hauler for a meeting with series officials, and police officers stood outside on guard. Gordon said he’s had problems with Bowyer all

season and had reached his limit. “Things just got escalated over the year, and I’d just had it,” he said. “Clint has run into me numerous times, wrecked me, and he got into me on the back straightaway and pretty much ruined our day. I’ve had it, fed up with it and I got him back.” He said he didn’t know what penalties might be coming from NASCAR. “They’ve got to do what they’ve got to do, and I guess I had to do what,” he said. NASCAR vice president of competition Robin Pemberton said the situation would be looked at fur-

ther this week. “That was surely a shame,” he said. “We’ll continue to try to get everybody back calm down and back to a working situation.” But Keselowski was livid, questioning the double-standard a week after he was criticized for racing hard on the final restarts against Johnson last week at Texas. He could have wrecked Johnson for the victory, and three years ago he might have done just that. But Keselowski was only aggressive yet clean and even after losing the race was condemned by some of his fellow competitors.

Wright, Cincinnati win opener CINCINNATI (AP) — Cashmere Wright scored 16 points and Sean Kilpatrick added 14 as No. 24 Cincinnati cruised to an 80-57 season-opening win over TennesseeMartin on Sunday. Eleven different players scored for the Bearcats. Justin Jackson had 11 rebounds and Cincinnati blocked 10 shots. Titus Rubles, a juniorcollege transfer making his Bearcats debut, came off the bench to score eight points and grab seven rebounds. The game drew 5,728. A couple of miles south, the Cincinnati Bengals hosted the New York

Giants and beat the Super Bowl champions 31-13. Cincinnati opens the season with four straight home games against unranked opponents, with Mississippi Valley State visiting on Tuesday. Last season, the Bearcats reached their first-ever Big East tournament championship game and made it to the NCAA’s round of 16 for the first time since 2001. Jeremy Washington, who scored 10 points in Tennessee-Martin’s season-opening 84-69 loss at Arkansas-Little Rock on Friday, led the Skyhawks (0-2) with 15 points. Myles Taylor and Mike Liabo each 12 points while

Justin Childs chipped in with 10 for TennesseeMartin. Cincinnati improved to 91-21 in season openers, including 80-10 at home. Cincinnati has won 47 of its last 48 season openers at home, the only loss coming to Belmont 86-75 in the 2007-2008 tip-off. The win was the 114th for Bearcats’ coach Mick Cronin, snapping a tie with Ed Jucker for fifth place on the program’s career coaching wins list. Cronin, starting his seventh year at his alma mater, is 114-88. Jucker guided Cincinnati to NCAA championships in 1961 and 1962. The Bearcats are hon-

oring All-American and longtime NBA star Jack Twyman by wearing a patch on their uniforms with his No. 27. Twyman, who played in the mid1950s, died in May. Washington scored the game’s first two points, giving Tennessee-Martin its only lead 1:04 into the game before Cincinnati took control with a 14-0 run capped by Ge’lawn Guyn’s 3-pointer with 13 minutes left in the first half. The Bearcats later took advantage of a Skyhawks’ 6:36 scoring drought to run off 17 unanswered points, building their largest lead of the half at 33-6.

Federer, Djokovic victorious at ATP finals LONDON (AP) — As usual, Roger Federer is looking to add to one of his many records. And as many expected, Novak Djokovic will be trying to stop him. The top two players in the world advanced to the championship match at the ATP finals on Sunday, each looking beatable early before turning things around. Federer, a six-time champion at the season-ending event, advanced by beating U.S. Open champion Andy Murray 7-6 (5), 6-2. The topranked Djokovic defeated Juan Martin del Potro 4-6,

6-3, 6-2. “I knew that if I lose today it’s the end of the season, so I gave everything I had and couldn’t be more happy,” Federer said on court after the match. The ATP finals is the last tournament of the season, and Federer will face Djokovic in the final match on Monday at the O2 Arena. Federer found himself in a hole early against Murray, losing his serve in the opening game of the match. But Murray, who lost to Federer in the Wimbledon final but beat him in the Olympic final, couldn’t hang on. The

17-time Grand Slam champion broke back to even the score at 4-4, and then recovered from a 3-1 deficit in the tiebreaker to win the opening set and take control of the match. In the second set, Federer lost only two points on serve and broke Murray twice. Once he gets ahead, he’s incredibly hard to stop,” said Murray, who leads Federer 10-9 in head-to-head play. “He tends to play better and better when he gets up. I feel like I gave him that advantage the beginning of the second set..” In the early match, the

■ College Football

top-ranked Djokovic started playing his best tennis as soon as it looked like he was headed for his offseason vacation. Djokovic was broken late in the first set and again early in the second, but he then found his stroke and quickly rebounded. “Well, I had a little, let’s say, crisis in today’s match from 4-all, first set to 2-all in the second, where I didn’t feel so good on the court, struggling to find my momentum and my rhythm,” Djokovic said. “So you try to be positive and push myself to fight for

every point and believe I can come back. That was the case.” Del Potro took the lead late in the first set, breaking Djokovic for a 5-4 lead before serving out the set at love. The tall Argentine, who defeated Djokovic to win the Olympic bronze medal at Wimbledon this year, then went up a break early in the second set. But Djokovic broke right back to 2-2 and then took Del Potro’s serve again to take a 5-3 lead. “He’s so good,” Del Potro said. “Of course, he’s the No. 1. In these kinds of matches,

they make the difference between them and the rest of the players.” In the third, Djokovic decided things by winning 12 of 13 points in a threegame stretch to take a 3-1 lead. He broke again three games later and held at love to advance. “I believed that I could come back,” said Djokovic, who treated the media to chocolates during his postmatch news conference to thank them for work throughout the year. “I believed that I could turn this match around in my favor, and I’ve done so.”

Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller drops back to pass against Illinois during the first quarter of an NCAA college football game Nov. 3 in Columbus.

Much to play for OSU can clinch outright Big Ten title with win By the Associated Press Despite not playing on Saturday, the Buckeyes did get some good news. By virtue of Penn State losing to Nebraska, Ohio State captured at least a share of the Big Ten’s Leaders Division title. The Buckeyes need only win one of their remaining two games — Saturday at 3:30 p.m. at Wisconsin, home at noon the following week against Michigan — to clinch the outright title. Of course, the Buckeyes cannot play in the title game because of NCAA sanctions. They can, however, win the trophy which goes to the winner of the division. • Poll Dancing Apparently the Buckeyes didn’t beat “bye” badly enough.

Ohio State’s week away from games dropped it a spot in the latest AP Top 25 released Sunday. Alabama’s stunning home loss to Johnny Football and Texas A&M dropped the Crimson Tide from No. 1 to fourth. Oregon (10-0) took over the top spot, with 45 first-place votes and 1,485 points. Second is Kansas State (10-0) with 14 first-place votes and 1,451 points. Notre Dame, 10-0 after yet another squeaker, picked up a single nod for No. 1 and 1,382 points. Behind 9-1 ‘Bama (which had 1,259 points), came Georgia (9-1), tied for fifth coming into the weekend with Ohio State. The Buckeyes received 1,212 points, just 11 back of Georgia. Rounding out the top 10 are Florida, LSU, Texas A&M and Florida

gives him a two-year exemption, a trip to Maui for the Tournament of Championship and a spot in the PGA Championship next year. “What a joy,” he said. “This is the greatest feeling ever.” He hoisted his 7-weekold son on the 18th green as a band played “ZippityDo-Dah.” Even by Disney’s standards, this was an unimaginable journey. Beljan thought he was going to die on Friday when his chest was heaving as he tried to breathe. He sat in the fairway and

paramedics followed him around the back nine of Palm Course in his second round. He got only an hour of sleep in the hospital Friday night, leaving his golf shoes on until about 4:30 a.m., then came to the course Saturday not knowing if he could finish one hole, let alone all 18. And when he woke Sunday, he had a pounding headache and an uneasy stomach. All that is forgotten. Beljan, who finished on 16-under 272, became the fourth rookie to win on tour this year.

Loss hurts Bama in BCS race TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — Now it’s out of Alabama’s hands. The fourth-ranked Crimson Tide has not only lost that aura of invincibility that seemed to surround Nick Saban’s team through eight games and the final two minutes against LSU, but surrendered control of its fate in the national title derby. No. 9 Texas A&M made sure of that with Johnny Manziel’s dazzling performance and a goal line stand in Saturday’s 29-24 upset.

Bama (9-1, 6-1 Southeastern Conference) fell three spots from its nearly season-long perch atop the rankings and now must hope for some sort of shakeup among No. 1 Oregon, No. 2 Kansas State and No. 3 Notre Dame. The word of the night from Saban was “recommit,” and he used it several times after the game. The Tide nearly duplicated its last-minute game-winning drive of the previous week against LSU, but still had plenty of issues that

had seldom crept up against lesser competition. “I was really concerned about this week,” Saban said. “We seemed like we were a little bit out of gas, and Texas A&M is a really good team and they played really, really well. Their quarterback’s a really fantastic player and made some plays that were great plays out there. And you have to have a tremendous amount of discipline to play a guy like that, and there were times when we didn’t quite get it done the way we’d like to.”

State. Also representing the Big Ten are Nebraska at No. 16 and Michigan at No. 23. First, Ohio made the Top 25, then it lost and dropped out. Then fellow MidAmerican Conference member Toledo came in at No. 23 but dropped right back out after a home loss on Tuesday night to Ball State. Now yet another MAC school made the rankings: Welcome to Kent State at No. 25. The last time the Golden Flashes made the grade in the poll, in 1973, Don James was the head coach and Jack Lambert was at linebacker. A graduate assistant on the team was the captain the year before, a guy named Nick Saban. You might have heard of him. Now is the head coach at Alabama.

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (AP) — Charlie Beljan had no reason to panic Sunday. His wild week at Disney ended with a comfortable lead and his first PGA Tour victory. What a turnaround in just two days. Beljan struggled to breathe and his blood pressure spiked during the second round, which ended with him being wheeled out of the scoring room on a stretcher. He spent the night at the hospital. It turned out to be a panic attack that was out of control. For 36 holes, he feared the panic attack might return. By the end of play Sunday, the 28-year-old rookie had completed a dream week. Beljan ran off four straight birdies around the turn and built a fiveshot lead on the back nine. He closed with a bogey for a 3-under 69 and a twoshot win at the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals Classic. After knocking in the last putt, he tossed his putter and walked around the 18th green on the Magnolia Course pumping his fists as it all began to sink in. Beljan was No. 139 on the PGA Tour money list coming into the final event of the year and figured he was headed back to Q-school. His win

Brian Kelley waited until the end of the presidential election to start campaigning for a spot in the BCS title game. The Notre Dame coach made his case on Sunday for a Top 2 spot in the polls that would allow the Fighting Irish (10-0) to play for a national championship. Oregon and Kansas State may be getting a lot of attention with their high-powered offenses, but Kelly said Notre Dame’s defense is every bit as impressive. “Each team has their own distinctions. The distinction of this football team is it’s the No.1 scoring defense in the country,” he said on a conference call with reporters a day after a 21-6 victory over Boston College helped the Irish move up to No. 3 in The

Associated Press Top 25. “It’s proven that against very, very good teams all year. … If you look at national championship-caliber football, you’ve got to look at a defense, and so that’s why we feel strongly that our football team has put themselves in the discussion. We’ll let others decide, but I think we’ve played our way into the discussion.” Notre Dame had been the consensus No. 4 team in the country heading into the weekend, with only a remote chance at a national championship until top-ranked Alabama was upset by No. 15 Texas A&M on Saturday. The Irish moved up to No. 3 in the poll released Sunday, still behind new No. 1 Oregon and second-ranked Kansas State. The Irish were expected to be third when the new

BCS standings were released later Sunday. Alabama dropped to fourth in the AP poll. Although Kelly had resisted politicking for a better ranking, his new poll position proved too tempting. He said he voted for his own team No. 1 in the USA Today coaches poll, up from No. 2 last week; it was the only first-place vote for the Irish, who were third in that poll as well. Kelly’s case is that the Irish have allowed 111 points in 10 games, tied with Alabama for fewest in the nation. He also pointed out that Notre Dame has played every game against an FBS foe; Oregon played Tennessee Tech, and Kansas State played Missouri State both FCS division teams. Notre Dame has beaten four teams that were ranked at the time the Irish played

them: Michigan State and Oklahoma on the road and Michigan and Stanford at home. The case against Notre Dame is that five of its wins have been by seven points or fewer, including a tripleovertime victory over unheralded Pittsburgh two weeks ago after the Panthers missed a 33-yard field goal to win it. Even the win over Boston College was uninspired: The Eagles are 2-8 and off to their worst start since 1989. But Kelly noted that BC, the only other Catholic school in the FBS, failed to score a touchdown for the first time this season. Eagles quarterback Chase Rettig is among the national leaders with 2,803 yards passing and 16 touchdowns, but Notre Dame allowed just two field goals in the game.
