Israel strike kills 11 in Gaza GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — An Israeli missile ripped through a two-story home in a residential area of Gaza City on Sunday, killing at least 11 civilians, including four young children and an 81year-old woman, in the single deadliest attack of Israel’s offensive against Islamic militants. The bloodshed was likely to raise pressure on Israel to end the fighting, even as it pledged to intensify the offensive by striking

the homes of wanted militants. High numbers of civilian casualties in an offensive four years ago led to fierce criticism and condemnation of Israel. In all, 73 Palestinians, including 37 civilians, have been killed in the five-day onslaught. Three Israeli civilians have also died from Palestinian rocket fire. President Barack Obama said he was in touch with players across the region in hopes of halt-

ing the fighting, while also warning of the risks of Israel expanding its air assault into a ground war. “We’re going to have to see what kind of progress we can make in the next 24, 36, 48 hours,” Obama said during a visit in Thailand. On the ground, there were no signs of any letup in the fighting as Israel announced it was widening the offensive to target the military commanders of the ruling

Hamas group. The Israeli military carried out dozens of airstrikes throughout the day, and naval forces bombarded targets along Gaza’s Mediterranean coast. Many of the attacks focused on homes where militant leaders or weapons were believed to be hidden. Palestinian militants continued to barrage Israel with rockets,

All fun and games until secession There’s nothing like an election to bring out the knuckleheads – unless, maybe, a pro football game, but that’s another story all together. The votes hardly were counted in this month’s election before people started signing petitions to have their states secede from the Union. At first I thought this was kind of humorous, you know, a bunch of people having fun, but it seems like at least some of the people signing the petitions were serious. See Page 5.

Miller was a passenger in a vehicle driven by Kenneth Thurmond, 32. Miller died after being ejected when the vehicle left the road, snapped a utility pole and struck trees and brush.

BOWLING GREEN — Nearly five years ago, while sitting in a math class at Tippecanoe High School, Cassie Berning solved an equation for love. “We’re Next best friends,” Door Berning said of she If you and fellow know Tippecanoe someone High who School should be graduate profiled in Luke our Next Zerkle.

Berning is a senior on the Bowling Green State University women’s volleyball team. Zerkle, a junior, proposed to his now-fiance on Senior Night during Berning’s final home match. “I was not expecting it at all,” said Berning, who

According to Superintendent David Larson and other leaders, there is an urgent need weighing on Covington Exempted Village Schools. The need concerns the district’s aging facilities, and while the need may be clear, the solution is not. The elementary school was built in the 1950s, the middle school in the ‘30s and the high school in the ‘70s. An attempt to replace these facilities was made in 2010 when a levy was placed on the ballot to fund the local share of a building project with the Ohio School Facilities Commission. The levy, which was only on the ballot once, failed by a vote of 473 yes votes to 836 no votes. The money would have been used for a new pre-kindergarten to 12th grade building with many Locally Funded Initiatives. A Facilities Planning Committee has been meeting to determine why the

firing more than 100 on Sunday, and setting off air raid sirens across the southern part of the country. Some 40 rockets were intercepted by Israel’s U.S.financed “Iron Dome” rocket-defense system, including two that targeted the metropolis of Tel Aviv. At least 10 Israelis were wounded by shrapnel. Israel’s decision to step up its attacks in Gaza marked a new and risky phase of the operation, given the likelihood of civilian casualties in the densely populated territory of 1.6 million Palestinians. Israel launched the offensive Wednesday in what it said was an effort to end months of intensifying rocket fire from the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip. In the day’s deadliest violence, the Israeli navy fired at a home where it said a top wanted militant was hiding. The missile struck the home of the

burst into tears as she accepted the proposal. “I was like, ‘This is not happenning. This couldn’t possibly be happening.’ I said before the night started when I was with my parents I was not going to cry — and I did a good job up until Luke came out,” Berning said. “But when he proposed, I just lost it.” Berning hasn’t been the only one to get caught up in the love story. According to Jason Knavel, Bowling Green’s Assistant Athletics Director of Athletic Communications, the NCAA posted a video of the proposal on its Facebook page — and it has become the most “liked” video ever posted on its Facebook page. Bowling Green also has posted the video on its YouTube page and it has quickly moved into the school’s top 10 most-viewed videos — along with eight football videos and a men’s basketball video. Zerkle — a year younger than Berning — still has a year to finish up at Bowling Green. Berning’s major isn’t offered at BGSU’s graduate school, but she hopes to stay in the area. The two are hoping to get married sometime in 2014 after Zerkle graduates. “It’s just been amazing,” Berning said. “I still can’t believe it happened.”

levy failed and what would be a better fit for both the district and the community. The district still has the opportunity to work with the Ohio School Facilities Commission. Through this, a building project would be cofunded, with the state covering 58 percent and Covington paying 42 percent. Many districts have performed projects with the OSFC; Larson informed everyone that the OSFC is funded by Ohio tax payers. “When we see buildings that are being built, that’s Covington’s money, and Bradford’s and Newton’s and everybody else’s.” he said. Larson and personnel from Fanning and Howey, the district’s architecture and design firm, presented facility options to the community Thursday night. Larson said that during FPC meetings, it has been said that an income tax may be better than a property tax. Because of this, both property tax and income tax figures were given during the presentation. Covington’s income tax is straight rather than on earned income. All figures provided were estimates. Option 1: Pay As You Go Covington is the only district in the county that does not have a Permanent Improvement Fund. This fund would be used to perform needed maintenance. Currently, if a maintenance expense comes up, such as a broken boiler, the General Fund is used. Larson said

that because this money is taken out of the General Fund, items such as field trips or professional development training may have to be cut. PI dollars must be used for items that will last five years or longer and can not be used for salaries or supplies. Option 1 would be 100 percent locally funded, and a levy would be needed to create the PI fund. The PI levy would need to generate $6,000,000 $7,000,000 total or approximately $285,000 - $475,000 per year. Properties are taxed based on 35 percent of their value. To create the needed money, a levy in the amount of 3 - 5 mills would be needed. For the owner of a $100,000 home, this would equate to $95 - $155 per year or $8 $13 per month. For an income tax, this would be a quarter percent to a half percent. A list of 17 needed maintenance items was presented at the meeting. Larson said that the money would not come in all at once and the projects would need to be done by priority. The list included: roof replacements as needed, complete asbestos removal and abatement district wide, insulation work at the elementary and security systems in all three buildings. “The Pay As You Go option allows me to sleep fine at night,” Larson said adding that with this option there is money available when a boiler breaks or other maintenance emergencies happen.

5.9 – 6.4 mills equating to $185 - $210 per year or $16 $18 per month for a $100,000 home. For an income tax it would be three quarters a percent. Votes on this one were nearly evenly split between the categories. Twenty five people strongly agreed that this was the best, 32 agreed, 29 disagreed and 14 strongly disagreed. Which would community choose? Attendees were asked to select which master plan they believed the community would choose. Option 1 received eight votes, Option 2 got 23, Option 3 got 29 votes, and None of the Above received nine votes. One person in attendance said if she were being truthful when she voted, she would have selected None of the Above. Many agreed. Larson asked, “Why do we think that?” The attendee responded, “Because we thought the last one would pass and it failed so miserably!” Larson shared that he believes the levy failed in large part because leaders didn’t educate the public enough. He encouraged everyone there to help provide education on the district’s facilities needs. He also shared that a survey of those voting no on the building project of 2010 showed that their three major concerns were the economy, the high school not being disposable and the middle school being used for senior housing. He went onto say that with the current options, the high school could remain, the middle school would not be used for housing and the costs are lower. Locally Funded Initiatives or LFIs Larson also shared about Locally Funded Initiatives. These are items that may be desired, but the OSFC will not co-fund them. “We need to be careful because they can add up quickly, but we want to hear what’s important to you,” Larson said. He asked the audience how important it was to have a connection to State Route 36. Thirty eight people said very important, 39 said important, 11 answered not a factor and 13 said not important. Those in attendance answered how important it is to have three separate gyms. Twenty three answered very important, 35 said important, 15 answered not a factor and 26 said not important.

agreed that this was the best option for Covington. Option 2: New prekindergarten to 12th grade building This option would be funded 58 percent by the state and 42 percent locally. It would be one building for all grades replacing all three current buildings and would be approximately 125,000 square feet of new construction. The total cost is estimated to be $27.5 million — $28.5 million. This would be 6.5 – 7.5 mills in a property tax which would be $210 $240 per year or $18 - $20 per month for a $100,000 home. It would be an income tax of 1 percent. After questioning if there was a solution to the facility needs that would also reduce operating costs, Larson shared that with the “one campus solution” savings could be obtained by only having one kitchen, one mechanical room, one electrical system, etc. and that when something is replaced, only one would be needed instead of three. However, the real savings would come from personnel. By reducing administrators and teachers, the district could save $200,000 annually. Larson said the reduction could be made through retirements. The majority of those questioned strongly agreed that this was the best option for Covington. Option 3: New prekindergarten to eighth grade segment This option would be cofunded with the state paying 58 percent and Covington residents paying 42 percent. It would include a new building replacing the current elementary and middle schools and would be adjacent to the high school. The building would be approximately 88,500 square feet and would cost $20.5 million. Some money would be used to invest in repair and renovation at the high school. To get this money, millage for a property tax would need to be

whether the militant targeted in Sunday’s attack was killed, despite earlier claims of success. “I still don’t know what became of him,” Mordechai told Channel 10 TV. The prospect of mounting civilian casualties could quickly change the momentum of Israel’s operation. Israel launched the offensive on Wednesday with a lightning airstrike that killed Hamas’ military chief. Since then, it has carried out a blistering campaign of more than 1,200 airstrikes, targeting suspected rocket storage and launching sites. Israel also struck two high-rise buildings housing media outlets, damaging the top-floor offices of the Hamas TV station, Al Aqsa, and a Lebanese-based broadcaster, Al Quds TV, seen as sympathetic to the Islamists. Six Palestinian journalists were wounded, including one who lost a leg, the Gaza press association said.

Hamas were struck on Sunday. Though most were empty their inhabitants having fled to shelter at least three had families in them. Al-Kidra said 20 of 27 people killed Sunday were civilians, mostly women and children. Sami Abu Zuhri, a Hamas spokesman, said that “the Israeli people will pay the price” for the killing of civilians. Israel sought to place the blame on militants, saying they were intentionally operating in places inhabited by civilians. The military has released videos and images of what it says are militants firing rockets from mosques, schools and public buildings. “Hamas is using the Gaza population as human shields,” said Brig. Gen. Yoav Mordechai, the chief Israeli spokesman. “They are exploiting crowded residential urban areas.” He acknowledged, however, that it was not clear

Meijer donation to benefit area Ginghamsburg programs to help residents Ginghamsburg Church and New Path Outreach Inc. recently received $66,640 in Meijer gift cards — the largest matching gift on record for the Meijer Simply Give program. The Troy Meijer donation will benefit Ginghamsburg and New Path’s three Choice Food Pantries in Tipp City, Fort McKinley/Dayton and Trotwood. “Not only did New Path supporters, but Ginghamsburg Church attendees, community members and area businesses pitch in to help us raise the funds necessary to maximize the Simply Give matching funds,” New Path Inc. Director Marcia Florkey said. “This gift will feed thousands of hungry individuals and families in the Miami Valley. We are over-

whelmed by the support.” “Hunger is a growing problem in the community, and we are so excited that the Meijer Simply Give program is able to help our food pantry partners address a critical need,” Meijer Spokeswoman Christina Fecher said. “The generosity of our customers and team members, as well as the continued commitment from our pantry partners, is truly inspiring. We cannot thank them enough.” Each Meijer Simply Give campaign aims to replenish the shelves of nearly 200 food pantries in Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky. The program encourages customers to purchase $10 Meijer Food Pantry

Donation Cards, which are then converted into Meijer gift cards and given to a local food pantry in the store’s community. Meijer seeds each Simply Give program with $100,000 in grocery gift cards that are divided among all the participating food pantries. This year, Meijer has announced that it will donate $1 million to the Simply Give program. The Simply Give program runs three times a year for about 10 weeks. Since the program’s inception in November 2008, more than $3.8 million — or nearly 23 million meals — have been donated to an estimated 400 food pantries in the Midwest. Meijer donates more than 6 percent of its net profits to charity every year.

All About The Turkey

Word of the Week beak — the bill of a bird

Newspaper Knowledge • Paper bag turkeys. Stuff a brown paper lunch bag with crumpled newspaper. Tightly tie the open end of the bag, creating a neck for the turkey. Attach a paper turkey head. Tape or glue colored feathers to the flat end of the bag. • Hand turkeys. Children can trace their hands on paper. (Younger children can trace each other’s hands if necessary.) The hand will form the turkey’s body; the thumb the turkey’s head; and the spread fingers, the turkey’s feathers. Children can add feet and color. They can also make a whole bunch of turkeys this way!

Write On! Encourage students to read what Benjamin Franklin had to say about the national seal of the United States of America on the Thanksgiving Turkey Web page. Ask students to explain Franklin's reasoning about the appropriateness of the turkey over the bald eagle. Then students can debate the merits of both birds (and other birds) for that purpose. Invite students to design a new seal – using a turkey instead of the eagle.

NIE Coordinator: Dana Wolfe / Graphic Designer: Scarlett E. Smith

How did the turkey get his name? No one knows for sure how the turkey got his name. Many people believe that when Columbus brought the turkey back to England other traders brought birds form Africa through a trading route in the country of Turkey at the same time. People thought they were the same bird and began to call them "Turkey birds." How big is a turkey? Wild turkeys are smaller than those raised by farmers to sell in the grocery store, but they are the largest game wild game bird in America. Males can weigh up to 25 pounds, but usually weigh 17 or 18 pounds. Females are smaller and weigh 9 to 10 pounds. Wild turkeys are about 2 1/2 to 3 feet tall. Domestic turkeys raised by farmers weigh about twice as much as a wild turkey. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the largest domestic turkey weighed about 86 pounds. That is enough turkey to feed

over 50 hungry people, but too big to fit in a regular oven. What do wild turkeys look like? Wild turkeys do not have white feathers like those raised on farms. Their feathers are dark brown and white. However, the most amazing thing about turkeys is that their necks and heads do not have feathers and their skin changes color according to their moods. When turkeys get excited or angry their heads and neck turn bright colors and may even turn red or blue. Turkeys have a flap of loose skin that hangs over their beak, called a snood. The snood turns bright red when the turkey is angry. Male turkeys, called "toms" or "gobblers," have larger snoods than the female turkeys. Female turkeys are called hens. The turkey's wattle is similar to the snood, but hangs below his chin. This flap of skin wiggles when he struts and turns bright red when he is angry or trying to attract a

mate. When the old tom turkey wants to show off for the hens, he puffs up his feathers and fans his tail like a peacock. He then struts around to make sure all the hens notice him. Can turkeys fly? Domestic turkeys are too heavy to fly, but wild turkeys can. When a wild turkey wants to make a quick get-a-way, he can fly 55 miles an hour for a short distance – that is as fast as a speeding car. He also can glide for up to a mile without flapping his wings.

Baby turkeys are hatched in a nest on the ground and cannot fly for the first two weeks. Young turkeys, called poults, stay with their mothers for the first year. Using Thanksgiving themes in the classroom to build academic skills adds variety to the curriculum and teaches kids about culture and customs as well. Use these turkey facts for kids to build classroom connections to geography, history, science and literacy skills.

Amazing Turkey Facts • Benjamin Franklin wanted the wild turkey to be the national bird of the United States instead of the bald eagle • Wild turkeys are the largest game birds located in this part of the world. • Turkey eggs are tan with specks of brown on them. The eggs take only a month to hatch and when they do,

the poults (baby turkeys) stay with their mother for up to a year. • The skin on the head and throat of a turkey can range in color from gray to a bright red depending upon the level of excitement or stress in the situation. • The skin that hangs over the turkey's beak is called a snood.

• The skin that hangs from the turkey's throat is called a wattle. • The scientific name for a turkey is Meleagris gallopavo. • Male turkeys gobble while female turkeys make a clicking sound. • The biggest turkey ever raised weighed a whopping 86 pounds!

• Adult turkeys have about 5,000 feathers. • Over 45 million turkeys are cooked for Thanksgiving. • Turkeys have full color vision. • A turkey's gobble can be heard up to a mile away. • Turkeys see poorly at night. • Turkey's have no external ears but have great hearing.

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP Omaha (Neb.) World-Herald on U.S. Post Office cutbacks: Severely cutting the retail window hours of 13,000 of the least-used post offices is a way for the U.S. Postal Service to address its serious funding shortage. But many Americans no doubt see it as the lesser of two evils. The greater evil, at least to many of the rural and small-town residents who depend on those little outposts of mail and sociability, would be to shut them down completely. The Postal Service, which gets no taxpayer money, went $5.1 billion in the red in fiscal year 2011 and lost $8.5 billion overall in 2011. This year, it’s on track to lose $15 billion. First-class mail deliveries have fallen 25 percent since 2006. The part-time post offices would retain some of the advantages of the full-time operations: People still would have access to the retail lobby and post office boxes; a town’s ZIP code and community identity would remain intact.

In most cases, the damage caused by such relationships is to that individual and those closest to the person. What makes Petraeus’s indiscretion so disturbing is that he was in a unique position as CIA chief to know — and possibly reveal to a lover or a lover-turned-blackmailer — information that could compromise the security of the United States. Sure enough, when the FBI gained access to personal items of Paula Broadwell — Petraeus’ paramour — it discovered classified documents on her computer, according to The Wall Street Journal. FBI officials later determined that Broadwell hadn’t obtained the classified documents from Petraeus. However, given the fact that Broadwell was working on another research project, with Petraeus’ assistance, related to the involvement of the Army’s 101st Airborne Division in Afghanistan, and that she allegedly displayed a vindictive streak in harassing another young woman who is a friend of Petraeus, it’s no great leap to believe she could have pushed the CIA chief for classified information on Afghanistan if their relationship had continued

DOONESBURY

It’s all fun and games until secession begins There’s nothing like an election to bring out the knuckleheads – unless, maybe, a pro football game, but that’s another story all together. The votes hardly were counted in this month’s election before people started signing petitions to have their states secede from the Union. At first I thought this was kind of humorous, you know, a bunch of people having fun, but it seems like at least some of the people signing the petitions were serious. Many of the states with the most signatures were states from the old Confederacy. It seems like they tried this once and it didn’t work out so well. After every election, you read or hear about people who claim they’re going to move out of the country because their side lost. It’s the classic American “I’m taking my ball and going home” trick, instead of going home they’re going somewhere else. This time around, Republicans are threatening to move to Canada, which is kind of ironic since that country is the king of national health care. When George W. Bush was elected, I knew a Democrat who actually did move to Australia. He came back within a couple years. It seems that he didn’t like things here much but they were a lot better than they were Down Under.

David Lindeman Troy Daily News Columnist This whole secession thing has a bit of irony to it, as well. Many of the states where the movement has the biggest following are states that receive much more money from the federal government than they send to it. States like Louisiana, Alabama and South Carolina fit into that category. In other words, if we let them go, we could help solve our own budget deficit! I’m not advocating that, mind you, but it is an interesting angle on some people’s view of independence. And you can’t necessarily just blame conservatives for this one. Back when Bush was elected the second time, there were some liberals who advocated the same kind of idea. I don’t think there were any petitions, though – we only got that this time around because the Obama administration set up a “We the People” website that makes it easy for people to send petitions to the White House. You just log in and sign up.

— Joe Simpson Troy

This has led to a secession within a secession, since people in the city of Austin, the liberal island in a sea of Republican Texas, are signing their own petition to secede from Texas if Texas secedes from the Union. I suppose if a few conservatives in Austin wanted to secede from Austin if Austin seceded from Texas if Texas seceded from the U.S., they could start their own petition, but it starts to get a bit too confusing to me. Now for one closer to home. Ohio Secretary of State John Husted floated an idea soon after the election to change the way Electoral College votes are counted. As it is, the winner gets all of Ohio’s votes. Hustead’s idea is to dole out the Electoral Votes according the state’s 16 congressional districts. The statewide winner gets the two extra electoral votes. Ohio’s districts are gerrymandered in such a way that they favor Republicans in a majority of the districts (at least, until the next time, when if the Democrats are in charge they can do some redrawing of their own). The bottom line is, this year that system would have given Romney 12 Electoral votes and Obama 6 Electoral votes. Husted ought to be ashamed of himself for such flagrant conniving, but he is a politician so you have to expect those kinds of

things. The real problem is that the system would eliminate Ohio’s status as the pre-eminent swing state. You know all that attention and money we get because the state is so important in the Electoral College? Split those votes up and you’ll have to go somewhere else to see a candidate or get one to spend any money here. You won’t even get any Republicans to come to K’s. I think all that election spending pretty much helped keep the state above water the last few months, so why throw it away? The Electoral College might not be the best system in the universe, but it’s our system and as long as it’s around we ought to get the most out of it. Winner take all is the American way! It also ensures Ohio actually gets some attention and even some extra help from presidents who hope we remember how they helped us out when Election Day rolls around. It’s pure manipulation of the process to make that change, but even worse it’s pure stupid. I don’t know, if they change the rules and if Austin secedes from Texas when Texas secedes from the Union, I just might move to Canada. Or not. If I moved, I would miss all this post-election fun.

PFLAG may be able to provide you with some assistance

Today: 5 p.m.: Miami Valley Events Calendar 6 p.m.: Legislative Update 8 p.m.: Have History Will Travel

Dear Annie: I am a transgendered boy and am having trouble coming out to my family. I wear sports bras and boy's clothing most of the time, and when I am speaking with my friends, I use male pronouns, but I still can't gather the courage to tell my family. My mother and I once talked about it briefly, but I got nervous and ended up saying it was no big deal. Now I feel as if I've missed my chance and will have to wait a long time before I get another shot at it. Being referred to and appearing as a girl makes me genuinely uncomfortable, but I know nothing is going to change until I tell them. Please help. — Nervous in Vermont Dear Vermont: Your mother likely suspects what is going on and is simply waiting for you to bring up the subject again. While you're considering that, please contact PFLAG (pflag.org), an organization that can answer some of your questions and help you discuss the matter with your parents. Dear Annie: I am writing to you because I am so angry. I was unhappy at my job after seven years. The insurance was the only good thing about it. My friend "Carolyn" had been after me for years to come work with her. She was always saying how much better her job was. The money was good, and the insurance was the same. So I changed jobs. But, Annie, as soon as I went to work there, Carolyn became someone I didn't know. She is mean, lazy, jealous and never has anything good to say. She spends her workday playing online games, chatting with online friends and taking naps.

It didn't take long to realize that I had made a huge mistake. When I told Carolyn that I was not learning enough on the job, she said, "I don't want to overwhelm you." When I went to others to get more work, she'd get angry and would suddenly find the most trivial tasks to keep me busy. And the insults never stopped. She said I only got the job because they were looking for people who were neither young nor attractive. (She should know.) She never missed an opportunity to humiliate or belittle me. It only took one week to hate that job and realize the one I left wasn't so bad, but there was nothing to do but tough it out. After seven months, I was laid off due to lack of work. I honestly believe I worked myself out of a job. I later found out that I was the third person she has done this to. It is like a sick game she plays. Everyone knew this but me. I am so angry with myself for being so stupid. I am 56 years old with diabetes, and Carolyn knew how much I needed the insurance. I am amazed at how little help is out there for people like me. I'm trying to forgive, but right now, I can't. — Rhonda Dear Rhonda: You will be able to forgive when you are ready to let go of your anger and resentment toward Carolyn. You could not know that she was untrustworthy. Meanwhile, contact your state's labor department or governor's office and find out whether they have employment programs geared toward older women. Also try AARP (aarp.org) and Senior Service America (seniorserviceamerica.org). Dear Annie: Here is another response to "Wondering," who inquired how to ask about an inheritance. I wish my parents had spent their money on their dreams. They worked so hard for them. Dad often talks about how much he will be leaving to us "kids." It makes me sad that he has lived such a frugal life saving for us. I wish he had taken Mom to Europe like she always dreamed. Someday, when my loving parents are gone, I will make that trip to Europe for them. — Wishing It Was Visa Versa Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

HOW TO PLAY: Complete the grid so that every row, column and 3x3 box contains every digit from 1 to 9 inclusively. Find answers to today’s puzzle in tomorrow’s Troy Daily News. SATURDAY’S SOLUTION:

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Scratch cooking has turned into a lost art Dear Readers: Here is this week’s sound off, about people no longer learning to really cook: “I read lots of recipes for ’shortcuts’ to a recipe. Whatever happened to cooks learning to boil beans, bake cornbread, fry potatoes or make hamburger gravy? Our young people know lots of desserts to make but don’t know how to boil an egg. Will they ever go back to ’scratch cooking’? — Carol in Ohio� Probably not! — Heloise GEESE BE GONE Dear Heloise: My husband and I have a beautiful landscaped lawn connected to a quarry filled with water. We have one problem: geese! They enjoy the

Hints from Heloise Columnist quarry, too, but several times a day they come out onto our lawn and leave droppings. Is there any solution to end this geese problem? — R.V. in Ohio Geese, while fun and amusing to watch, can leave a big mess. There are several options to fix the problem. You can try things like balloons, flags or scarecrows,

which need to be moved often, as the birds may get used to them. Another way to go is a physical barrier, like a fence. You can run a small fence around the area to keep the geese off your lawn. The geese will still have access to the quarry but will be prevented from going any further. There are products on the market from noisemakers to chemical deterrents, but most important is do not feed the geese! — Heloise SELECTING A SCHOOL Dear Heloise: I recently enrolled my son in preschool. I

had a hard time deciding where to send him. I didn’t know what to look for when touring schools. My mother gave me some good advice that I think can help other people in many different situations. She said: “If there are rooms or places they will not let you look, then they are hiding something. And if that is the case, you don’t want him there.� Hope this helps your readers. — S.S. in Texas This is great advice! This can be used when looking for schools, but also when looking at assisted-living facilities, nursing homes and boarding homes for pets. — Heloise

HOROSCOPE BY FRANCES DRAKE For Tuesday, Nov. 20, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Grab every chance to travel in the next six weeks, because your sense of adventure is strong. Furthermore, you’ll welcome any chance to get further training or education. Go! TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) In the month ahead, your focus turns to shared property, taxes, debt and insurance matters. There are lots of loose ends that you need to clear up, no? GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Because the Sun is opposite your sign for the next four weeks, you will need more sleep. (The Sun is your source of energy, and it will be as far away from you as it gets all year.) CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Work hard to get organized in the next month. Give yourself the right tools to do a great job. Get file folders, cleaning material, paint, shelving, closet organizers — whatever. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Expect a fun-loving, delightful six weeks ahead! Enjoy the theater, movies, parties, social engagements, sports events and playful activities with children. Romance will flourish! VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Home, family and your domestic, private world will be your strong focus for the next month. Interactions with a parent could be particularly significant. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You’re entering an accelerated pace for the next month. Short trips, conversations with everyone, plus increased reading and writing will keep you on the go! SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Your focus turns to money, possessions and your self-image. You will be concerned about these things in the next month, especially ways to boost earnings. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) With the Sun in your sign for the next four weeks, you have an opportunity to rejuvenate yourself. Expect favorable circumstances and people to come your way. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Use the next several weeks to strategize about what you want your new year (birthday to birthday) to be. How do you want it to be different from this past year? AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) A popular month awaits you! Enjoy schmoozing with others. Share your hopes and dreams for the future with someone, because this person’s feedback might help you. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) In the next six weeks, the Sun will travel across the top of your chart, acting like a spotlight on you. This is why others will notice you more than usual. (This lighting is flattering!) YOU BORN TODAY You challenge anything you think is unjust or unfair. You are highly principled and a fighter for the right cause. This is why you often are involved in controversial issues. You know how to use sarcasm and wit. You are practical, even though you can appear casual. Your year ahead is the beginning of an exciting new cycle. Open any door! Birthdate of: Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, politician/attorney general; Sean Young, actress; Jason Thompson, actor.

TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Monday, Nov. 19, the 324th day of 2012. There are 42 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Nov. 19, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg Address as he dedicated a national cemetery at the site of the Civil War battlefield in Pennsylvania. On this date: • In 1919, the Senate rejected the Treaty of Versailles by a vote of 55 in favor, 39 against, short of the twothirds majority needed for ratification. • In 1969, Apollo 12 astronauts Charles Conrad and Alan Bean made the second manned landing

on the moon. • In 1977, Egyptian President Anwar Sadat became the first Arab leader to visit Israel. • In 1985, President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev met for the first time as they began their summit in Geneva. • In 1990, the pop duo Milli Vanilli were stripped of their Grammy Award because other singers had lent their voices to the “Girl You Know It’s True” album. • In 1997, Iowa seamstress Bobbi McCaughey (mih-KOY’) gave birth to septuplets, four boys and three girls. The space shuttle Columbia zoomed

into orbit on a two-week science mission. • One year ago: Moammar Gadhafi’s former heir apparent, Seif al-Islam, was captured by revolutionary fighters in the southern desert just over a month after his father was killed, setting off joyous celebrations across Libya. • Today’s Birthdays: Talk show host Dick Cavett is 76. Broadcasting and sports mogul Ted Turner is 74. Actor Dan Haggerty is 71. Sportscaster Ahmad Rashad is 63. Actress Meg Ryan is 51. Actressdirector Jodie Foster is 50. Country singer Billy Currington is 39.

High Park Fire residents staying through winter

AP

Robert and Susan Lehman stand by the foundation of their new home being built in the Glacier View Meadows subdivision Nov. 13. evacuated, but few believed the fire would ever jump the Poudre River and into this mountain subdivision 35 miles northwest of Fort Collins. On June 22, windblown embers pushed the fire across the Poudre, lighting up the 12th filing and licking parts of the 9th in Glacier View Meadows before the wind changed direction to blow the fire east into the already burned Hewlett Gulch area, stopping the blaze cold. When all was said and done, 259 homes were reduced to rubble. Some residents will never return; some will wait until spring to return to those subdivisions whose names are etched into our memories: Whale Rock, Stratton Park, Davis Ranch,

Paradise Park, Deer Meadows, Redstone Canyon, Rist Canyon, Poudre Canyon, Poudre Park, Glacier View and more. But as the disaster relief distribution center at Foothills Mall prepares to close Wednesday, there are some signs that life is returning to normal. For The Mayburys, like many others, were underinsured, and can’t afford to walk away from the money they have invested in the property, PJ Maybury said. those displaced by the fire, it may be a new normal, but the sound of construction is a

welcome sign that everything, eventually, will be OK again. Though they talked about starting over elsewhere, “this is home,” she said. “The view has changed a little bit but the sun still comes up on the same side of the lot and goes down on the same side of the lot. And those mountains are still there.” The gradual getting use to life on the blackened hillside is now the Mayburys’ lot. Things were going fine when they moved the trailer on to the property, until they tore out the foundation of their former home. “I had to mourn the loss of that house all over again, PJ Maybury said. “We built the foundation ourselves, we poured the slab … it was like a final goodbye to the house.” The fire brought neighbors closer as they shared their collective horror even as the loss of homes separated them geographically. “It’s so hard to describe, there is just such a deep, strong feeling that people have for each other that makes you want to stay,” PJ Maybury said. “I really, totally understand

LIVERMORE, Colo. (AP) — Two days after the High Park Fire roared through the 12th filing in Glacier View Meadows, PJ and Charles Maybury went shopping for a camper. It was Sunday and the RV dealerships were closed. But hunting for a temporary home helped ease the bitter loss the Mayburys suffered when the fire claimed their home on the southern edge of the Livermore subdivision. Today, that 30-foot travel trailer sits in the middle of the Mayburys’ property, surrounded by blackened trees, flattened ground where neighbors’ homes once stood, and a landscape forever changed by the 87,000-acre lightning-sparked inferno that destroyed 259 homes, innumerable outbuildings and claimed one life. The Mayburys and many families like them in Glacier View and the Rist and Poudre canyons plan to hunker down in campers, garages and other temporary dwellings on their burned properties to make it through the coming winter. For those staying in the burn area, frigid temperatures, snow and bone-chilling wind will make an already isolated existence even more challenging. Fueled by record drought, heat and fierce winds, the wildfire raged through Rist and Poudre canyons overnight June 9, displacing hundreds of canyon residents, killing Old Flowers Road resident Linda Steadman, and wiping out dozens of homes, businesses and a fire station. Unpredictable weather and winds spread the blaze in almost every direction, creating havoc for firefighters and spreading a thick, heavy smoke over Fort Collins. While many Rist and Poudre canyon residents awaited word on their homes, hundreds more residents in Glacier View’s 9th, 10th and 12th filings were

why people say they can’t do this again. It’s exhausting and things go wrong all over the place. But we have 10 years of roots in the community and this is where we want to be.” Life in an RV has already proved challenging. The hot water line and gray water line have both frozen. They skirted the trailer and put a heater under it to keep the water lines thawed and they’ll keep them there until the garage is done and they can move the camper inside to keep it from getting as cold. PJ isn’t worried about the isolation of living without neighbors for awhile. “If we had our way we would have bought a property way up the Prairie Divide that gets completely isolated. When we get snowed in for a week, it’s wonderful. It will be just more challenging if we’re in the camper.” Like the Mayburys, Barbara and Leonard

Jenkins used insurance money provided for living expenses to buy an RV. The 37-foot Snowbird, with electric fireplace, bedroom, bathroom, small living and dining room is comfortable enough to survive the winter in Glacier View. The DirecTV satellite dish is hooked up and a stereo system and flat-screen TV provide entertainment for the 70-something couple. Looking out their front door, the Jenkinses see two houses inexplicably still standing near spots where the fire claimed homes in between. The field in front turned from black to iridescent green when the rain finally came, until the change of seasons eventually turned it brown. And the burned trees on their property still stand they’re waiting to see if they come back by some miracle. “Nature may pull a shrewd one on us,” Leonard Jenkins said.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (18) gets past Kansas City Chiefs cornerback Javier Arenas (21) and free safety Kendrick Lewis (23) to catch a short pass for a touchdown during the first quarter Sunday in Kansas City, Mo.

Bengals roll Crush helpless Cheifs 28-6 KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Bengals punt team trotted onto the field midway through the first quarter Sunday, shortly after the Chiefs had kicked a field goal to take a rare lead in a game. All the momentum was going Kansas City’s way. Then the snap landed in the hands of Cedric Peerman, who was lined up to protect punter Kevin Huber. The running back raced around the side of the line, the perfectly executed fake catching the Chiefs napping, and 32 yards later gave Cincinnati a first down. New life, too. The Bengals

would convert another fourth down on the same series, and Andy Dalton would hit A.J. Green with a short touchdown pass to cap it off, giving Cincinnati a lead it would never relinquish in a 28-6 victory on Sunday. “It was a momentumswinger,” running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis said. “That’s the thing about the NFL most of the games are decided by a few points. When you get a momentum-swinger like that where you punch them right in the gut, it swings the momentum going your way.” Dalton wound up with 230

yards passing, including another TD throw to Mohamed Sanu, and also scampered for a score. Green had six catches for 91 yards, and Green-Ellis bullied his way for 101 yards and a touchdown on the ground as the Bengals (5-5) won their second straight. Cincinnati plays its next four games against teams that began the day with losing records. None of them are as bad as the Chiefs, though. Jamaal Charles had 87 yards rushing for Kansas City (1-9), but that was the only highlight for a team that lost its seventh

Cowboys edge Browns in OT ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The Cleveland Browns were already hampered with starting cornerback Joe Haden injured. All those penalties against the defensive backs who did play certainly didn’t help, especially on the drive that allowed the Dallas Cowboys to force overtime. Safety T.J. Ward was called for unsportsmanlike conduct for a hard hit that knocked a ball loose and one of his teammates out of the game. And Sheldon Brown got a 35-yard pass interference penalty that set up a tying field goal for Dallas, which then won 23-20 in overtime Sunday. “Either we start slow or finish pretty strong, or we start fast and don’t finish,” Ward said. “That’s kind of been our problem this year. We just have to figure

Haden (abdominal injury) in the lineup, was called for illegal contact on consecutive plays in the second quarter. Skrine then got called for pass interference before Dallas scored a go-ahead touchdown in the fourth period. Ward, who had a pass interference call against him, initially said the defensive penalties weren’t the right calls. Seven were against the secondary. “Maybe a couple. But not as many as they called. What are you supposed to do when a receiver is pushing you?” Ward said. “I felt like we were playing AP PHOTO one-handed out there.” The Browns got the ball back Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant (88) grabs a touchdown catch in front of Cleveland Browns' Sheldon Brown, rear, with 5 minutes left in regulation when Frostee Rucker sacked Sunday in Arlington, Texas.

Ellis capped that one off with a short touchdown plunge for a 21-3 lead. Matt Cassel deftly led the Chiefs to a field goal in the closing seconds of the half, but Crennel elected to put backup Brady Quinn into the game at quarterback to start the third quarter. Cassel sustained a concussion earlier this season, and then lost his job to Quinn, who was active for the first time since sustaining his own concussion Oct. 28 against Oakland. Quinn didn’t fare much better leading the Kansas City offense, and the Bengals tacked on Sanu’s touchdown catch in the fourth quarter to seal the win. “We did good things in all three phases,” Bengals coach Marvin Lewis said. “We knew it was going to be a grind. We can’t worry about things around us. We just have to take care of us.”

Bengals ■ CONTINUED FROM 13 straight amid a gloomy backdrop at Arrowhead Stadium. The Chiefs’ once-raucous home venue was only about half-full most of the game, and a good portion of those who showed up were dressed in black a grass roots effort organized by fans who have been trying to pressure team ownership to clean out the front office. “I focus on the game. I don’t get into the crowd,” Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel said. Perhaps he should have let his eyes wander. What happened on the field couldn’t have put him in a good mood. Dalton and Green shredded Crennel’s porous pass defense, Ellis pounded away at a front line that had played better of late, and a middle-of-the-road Cincinnati defense looked like an iron curtain against a Kansas City offense that

has been utterly inept. The result: The Bengals are back to .500, and eying back-to-back postseason appearances for only the second time in franchise history, while the Chiefs have dropped seven straight games in a single season for the first time since Oct. 5Nov. 23, 2008. “We felt like we gave a couple of games away,” said Dalton, who had four TD passes in last week’s win over the Giants. “Now we’ve got momentum and we’ve got to keep it going. We’ve had two great wins, fullteam wins, with everybody doing their part, and we’ve got to keep that going.” The Chiefs struck first for the second straight week, turning several nice runs by Charles into a 34-yard field goal by Ryan Succop, before reality set in again. That’s when the Bengals pulled off their faked punt, converted another fourth down and then saw Dalton

cap the drive with a 5-yard fade pass to Green, who managed to stab the ball with one hand and then slap both feet into the end zone before falling out of bounds. Peyton Hillis fumbled on the Chiefs’ ensuing possession, their league-leading 31st turnover this season, but they dodged trouble when Mike Nugent missed a 50-yard field-goal attempt. Cincinnati made it 14-3 later in the second quarter when Dalton fooled the entire Kansas City defense on a perfectly executed naked bootleg. The 1-yard TD run came on fourth down after a video review showed that Gresham had been stopped just shy of the goal line on a 10-yard catch. The Bengals’ most impressive drive of the game came after they forced the Chiefs to punt for the third straight time, an 11play, 78-yard masterpiece in which they faced third down once.

Texans escape past Jags in OT

seconds to go after missing two field goals earlier in the game. Matthew Stafford couldn’t put the Lions ahead on either of their last two drives in a game he’d like to forget. Stafford threw two interceptions — one of which was returned 72 yards by Green Bay safety M.D. Jennings for a go-ahead score in the

third quarter — and lost a fumble. Buccs 27, Panthers 21 OT CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Josh Freeman threw a 15yard touchdown pass to Dallas Clark in overtime to cap a comeback. It was Freeman’s third touchdown pass of the game for the Buccaneers (6-4). Carolina appeared to

have the game in hand after a 29-yard touchdown pass from Cam Newton to Brandon LaFell put the Panthers (2-8) up 21-10 with 4:34 left in the game. But after a 40-yard field goal by Connor Barth, the Panthers were forced to punt, and Freeman led the Bucs 80 yards on seven plays in 50 seconds with no timeouts. He finished the drive

with a 24-yard touchdown pass to Vincent Jackson between three defenders with 12 seconds left. Freeman went back to Jackson for a 2-point conversion on a slant route to send the game into overtime. Patriots 59, Colts 24 FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — The Patriots used three scoring passes from Tom

Brady, two touchdowns on interception returns and another on a punt return to match a team single-game scoring record. The Patriots (7-3) won their fourth straight game and extended their lead in the AFC East to three games. The Colts (6-4) had their four-game winning streak stopped by the NFL’s best offense and one of its worst defenses. Saints 38, Raiders 17 OAKLAND, Calif. — Drew Brees threw three touchdown passes and Malcolm Jenkins returned an interception for another score to get the Saints back to .500. Lance Moore caught two touchdown passes and Mark Ingram ran for a score as the Saints (5-5) won for the fifth time in six games and are in position to make a late-season playoff run despite the season-long distraction from the bounty scandal. Broncos 30, Chargers 23 DENVER — Peyton Manning threw for three touchdowns and Von Miller had three sacks to take the league lead with 13. Denver took a three-game lead in the AFC West by sweeping the Chargers. Manning threw for 270 yards. He got off to a slow start, throwing an interception that Eric Weddle returned for a score and an early 7-0 lead. But the Broncos (7-3) took a 10-7 lead early in the second quarter and never trailed again. Redskins 31, Eagles 6 LANDOVER, Md. — Robert Griffin III threw four touchdown passes, and Washington broke a threegame losing streak. Griffin completed 14 of 15 passes for 200 yards and also ran 11 times for 85 yards. He threw for scores of 6, 49, 61 and 17 yards — one in each quarter. Jets 27, Rams 13 ST. LOUIS — Mark Sanchez directed a turnover-free offense and Bilal Powell ran for the first two touchdowns of his career as the Jets ended a three-game losing streak.

hanging dreadlocks. Brandon Weeden threw a 17-yard TD pass to Benjamin Watson, putting Cleveland up 20-17 with 1:07 left. It was then on a pass Romo threw toward Kevin Ogletree that Ward delivered a hit that knocked the ball loose. That also put the receiver and Skrine on the ground and drew a penalty for what officials called a shoulder-tohelmet hit. Skrine left the game with what coach Pat Shurmur called a concussion, and didn’t return. Ward said he aimed at

the chest, and insisted that is where he hit Ogletree. Three plays later, Brown was called for pass interference while defending Dwayne Harris along the right sideline. The ball was marked at the Browns 14, from where Dan Bailey kicked the tying field goal four plays later. “I thought the ball landed out of bounds. I thought we both had hands on one another. I didn’t hit him,” Brown said. “He was lying on the ground hurt. I don’t know how he still got hurt. Then he came back in the next play. There might

have been a little acting going on there.” Bailey kicked a winning 38-yard field goal nearly 9 minutes into overtime after both teams had punted once. On the final Dallas drive, Miles Austin appeared to make a catch, take a couple of steps and fumble the ball that was picked up by Cleveland. But the play was ruled incomplete, and the play was non-reviewable by replay though Shurmur called timeout hoping they would at least reconsider. “I think I saw it a little bit differently,” Shurmur

said. Romo was sacked a career-high seven times, but completed 35 of 50 passes for 313 yards. Bryant had 12 catches for a career-high 145 yards. Cleveland led 13-0 at half before Dallas scored on its first three possessions of the second half. The Cowboys went ahead 17-13 midway through the fourth quarter on Romo’s 28-yard toss to Bryant. Weeden fumbled on a sack by Anthony Spencer, who recovered. But Romo gave it right back when he fumbled as he was hit trying to scramble. It was his

first turnover in three games. Trent Richardson fell just short of becoming the first Browns rookie with three straight 100-yard games. He finished with 95 yards rushing, and added 49 yards receiving. Weeden was 20 of 35 for 210 yards with the two scores to Watson, who had four catches for 47 yards. “We battled, we made a play late in the game,” Weeden said. “We thought we finished. … We’ve been in a lot of close games this year. Just having been able to finish. I don’t know the answer.”

Schaub, Johnson connect for winning TD HOUSTON (AP) — Andre Johnson caught a screen pass from Matt Schaub and ran 48 yards for the winning touchdown in overtime as the Houston Texans rallied to beat Jacksonville 43-37 on Sunday. Schaub threw a careerhigh five touchdown passes, completed a franchiserecord 43 passes and finished with 527 yards passing, second most in NFL history. Warren Moon also threw for 527 yards for the Houston Oilers in December 1990 against Kansas City. Norm Van Brocklin holds the record with 554 for the Rams in 1951. Johnson caught 14 passes for 273 yards, both career highs. The Texans (9-1) won an overtime game for the first time at Reliant Stadium. Falcons 23, Cardinals 19 ATLANTA — Matt Ryan overcame a career-worst five interceptions, guiding Atlanta to its only offensive touchdown in the fourth quarter in a sloppy win. The Falcons (9-1) turned it over a total of six times, but Michael Turner scored on a 1-yard run with 6:40 remaining to give Atlanta its first lead of the game. Ryan set up the score with four completions for 64 yards, including a 9-yarder to Tony Gonzalez on third-and-5 at the Arizona 10. Coming off a bye, Arizona (4-6) lost its sixth straight game. The Cardinals tried to bolster their anemic offense by switching quarterbacks, replacing John Skelton with rookie Ryan Lindley, but Larry Fitzgerald couldn’t hang on to a fourth-down pass after Ryan’s fifth pick. Packers 24, Lions 20 DETROIT — Aaron Rodgers threw two touchdown passes, including a 22yarder to Randall Cobb with 1:55 left to lift Green Bay. Mason Crosby made a 39-yard field goal with 19

Browns ■ CONTINUED FROM 13 at the Cleveland 28. They were stopped on fourth down from the 1 when tight end Jordan Cameron wasn’t able to catch the ball in bounds. But after stopping Dallas on three running plays and using all their timeouts, the Browns got another chance. Joshua Cribbs had a 21yard punt return, plus an additional 15 yards tacked on for a questionable call against Dallas (5-5). John Phillips was called for a horse collar though the replay showed he actually grabbed hold of Cribbs’

HOCKEY A daily look at the NHL lockout NHL lockout at a glance DATE: Sunday, Nov. 18. DAY: 64. LAST NEGOTIATIONS: Sunday, Nov. 11, in New York NEXT NEGOTIATIONS: Monday in New York. GAMES LOST: 327 (all games through Nov. 30, plus New Year's Day Winter Classic). GLIMMER OF HOPE: All was quiet on the NHL labor on front Sunday, one day before the league and the players' association planned to return to the bargaining table for the first time in eight days. NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly said Saturday that this new round of negotiations was initiated by the players' association, just days after Commissioner Gary Bettman suggested to union executive director Donald Fehr that the sides take two weeks off from talks. "We can confirm that we have tentatively agreed to get back together on Monday," Daly said. "The meeting was requested by the union, and it's their agenda. We will see what they have to tell us." WHAT WE MISSED: Only three hockey games were lost on a light Sunday night, including the Winnipeg Jets visiting the New York Rangers in what would have been the nightcap of an NBA-NHL doubleheader at Madison Square Garden. The host New York Knicks knocked off the Indiana Pacers 88-76 on Sunday in a game that started at noon. Last season, the Rangers earned a pair of 30 home victories over the Jets — the former Atlanta Thrashers — in their first season following the team's relocation to Winnipeg. ON THIS DAY LAST YEAR: Canadian Tom Gaglardi, president of Northland Properties Corp., became the new owner of the Dallas Stars. The Stars signed an agreement in September to sell the team to the Vancouver businessman and filed a prepackaged bankruptcy plan to help facilitate the transaction. Gaglardi announced that Jim Lites would return as team president and CEO, a position he held twice previously.

Let the game begin

No. 4 Ohio State to host No. 20 Michigan ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — Devin Gardner has flourished in three straight starts at quarterback for Michigan. Denard Robinson is healthy enough to play, but can’t seem to do more than lightly lob a short pass. So, is there any chance Robinson will go back to being the team’s QB on Saturday at Ohio State? “I guess he could,” Wolverines coach Brady Hoke said with a straight face. “I don’t know. It’s an option.” Yeah, right. Let The Game — and the gamesmanship — begin. Even if it’s obvious, Hoke must think acknowledging the fact that Gardner will stay at QB while Robinson lines up as a running back or receiver would give the rival Buckeyes a bit of information to help them prepare for Saturday’s game. No. 4 Ohio State (11-0, 70 Big Ten) will host the 20th-ranked Wolverines (83, 6-1) in its finale with a shot to win The Associated Press national title. The Buckeyes, though, can’t play for the conference championship because they’re ineligible to play in the postseason as part of sanctions stemming from a memorabilia-for-cash scandal under ex-coach Jim Tressel.

Ohio State running back Carlos Hyde scores the game-winning touchdown against Wisconsin in overtime Saturday in Madison, Wis After Ohio State beat the Wisconsin Badgers 2114 in overtime Saturday to seal the Legends Division title, coach Urban Meyer said they’re not the program’s rival. “The next one is,” Meyer said. “So when we use that ‘R’ word, we’re talking about this week.” When Hoke talks about the Buckeyes this week, he won’t say Ohio State once — dropping the second word in the school’s name in what he insists is not intended to insult the storied program he grew up rooting against despite growing up near Dayton,

Ohio. “There’s a lot of respect on both sides for both programs,” he said after a 4217 win over Iowa. Hoke will lead college football’s winningest program in a game at the Horseshoe for the first time against Meyer, who hasn’t been a head coach in what is referred to as The Game. “It’s going to be fun,” Hoke said. Indeed. And, it’ll be interesting — or fun — to see how Michigan offensive coordinator Al Borges uses Gardner and Robinson after playing both exten-

sively against the Hawkeyes. Hoke said the coaching staff has been discussing ways to use them both on the field for 18 months — since he replaced fired coach Rich Rodriguez — and talk turned to action when Robinson was cleared to play after missing twoplus games with nerve damage in his right elbow. “After the Northwestern game that night, (Borges) had nine plays ready and then we put six more in,” Hoke said. Gardner gave Robinson the ball on a toss sweep to the right on Michigan’s first play and threw it to him to the left on the next snap. Robinson also got a handoff and made an option pitch to Fitzgerald Toussaint, whose left leg appeared to break on the unique play, and Robinson just a decoy on another play in which Gardner threw one of his three touchdown passes. Robinson took some snaps at QB, but didn’t throw once against the Hawkeyes. Can he pass? “Yes, but not as well as he’d like to,” Hoke said. That, once again, might just be another thing Michigan is going to let Robinson do against the Buckeyes, who might not expect him to attempt passes downfield.

■ CONTINUED FROM 13 motorsports organization is considered the gold standard of IndyCar racing 15 Indianapolis 500 wins and his empire has made Penske one of the most successful businessmen in America, his NASCAR team operation was always just average. Then came Keselowski, the blue collar, Twitter-loving, Michigan native who convinced “The Captain” his NASCAR team could be a winner, too. Three years later, they hoisted the Sprint Cup trophy together at HomesteadMiami Speedway following Keselowski’s 15th-place finish Sunday night. He started the race up 20 points on Johnson, who blew a tire and crashed last week at Phoenix to give Keselowski a nice cushion and needing only to finish 15th or higher in the finale to wrap up his first championship. But the Penske team took nothing for granted not after Will Power crashed in the IndyCar finale to blow a 17-point lead and lose the championship. And this one got tight, too, especially when Keselowski ran out of gas on pit road during green flag pit stops. It put him a lap down with Johnson leading, and Keselowski and crew chief Paul Wolfe frantically trying to figure out how dire the situation had become. Wolfe crunched the numbers, figuring the No. 2 Dodge would cycle out in the mid-20s, a lap down from the leaders.

“I know the scenario, and it’s not good,” Keselowski said. But minutes later, Johnson went to pit road for his own stop and pulled away with a missing lug nut. NASCAR flagged the Hendrick Motorsports team and Johnson was forced back to pit road for another stop. The Penske team was unsure if Keselowski wanted to know what was going on with Johnson. “I’ve got a big picture story if you want to hear it,” a team member radioed, then informed Keselowski that Johnson had to pit again. “Ten-four. Thank you for telling me. We’re back in the game. I got it,” he said. It got worse for Johnson from there. He broke a rear end gear in his Chevrolet and went to the garage with 40 laps to go, essentially clinching the championship for Keselowski. “It all unraveled pretty quick,” Johnson conceded. No longer needing to save fuel, and no longer needing to play it conservatively, he waived off Wolfe’s playbook. “If he’s in the garage, let’s race,” Keselowski said. That’s been Keselowski’s attitude since he burst onto the NASCAR scene. He first caught attention as a brash driver for Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s Nationwide Series team, and he was unapologetic for his aggressive driving and his refusal to back down in long-running feuds with established stars Denny Hamlin and Carl Edwards.

Notre Dame on top of BCS

Buckeyes

If form does not hold, and there are more upsets such as the ones that took out Oregon and Kansas State on Saturday night, there are a handful of teams that could be in the mix. Florida (10-1) is in fourth heading into a huge game at 10th-place Florida State. The Seminoles (10-1) also will have an ACC title game to play.

■ CONTINUED FROM 13 Gaddy had 15. The Huskies earned the right to play Ohio State with an overtime win Saturday night over Seton Hall. This is the same tournament that Kentucky won last season in an early test for that young team, which won the national title. Ohio State led by double digits much of the way and by as many as 17 in the second half. Washington made one run, cutting the lead to 57-50 on a layup by Gaddy midway through the second half, before the Buckeyes stretched it back out. Thomas scored 11 of his team’s first 13 points, showing off his versatility by hitting a 3-pointer, two jumpers, a layup and a hook shot. He hit his first nine shots. This was his 14th game with 20 or more points at Ohio State. He also scored 31 last season against Loyola (Maryland). The 6-foot-7 junior was 3 of 7 from 3-point range, and came into the game having made seven of his 15 3-point shots. He had 25 points and 10 rebounds in the Buckeyes’ win Saturday over Rhode Island. Washington stayed in

the game in the first half by shooting 52 percent from the floor, led by Scott Suggs who had eight of his 11 at intermission. But the Huskies were outrebounded 34-28 and had 13 turnovers. These were Ohio State’s first games away from home, and first on a neutral court. The Buckeyes had been scheduled to play on Nov. 9 in the Carrier Classic on the USS Yorktown in South Carolina, but that game had to be cancelled because of condensation on the court. So the Buckeyes had played just once, a 22-point home win in the opening game of this tournament over Albany before beating Rhode Island by 11 on Saturday. The Huskies lost by a point to that same Albany team. Washington led by as many as 18 against Seton Hall on Saturday, but were forced to overtime before winning. Washington’s last win against a top-10 team came in the 2010 NCAA tournament, when the Huskies beat No. 8 New Mexico. Ohio State improved to 4-8 all-time against Washington, a team it hadn’t played since 1972.

If the favorites win, the Southeastern Conference championship game will be a national semifinal of sorts, with the winner advancing to the BCS title game.

NEW YORK (AP) — Notre Dame is a victory away from playing for the BCS title. Alabama and Georgia each need two, and could have to go through each other. A day after Oregon and Kansas State lost to give up control of the BCS race, the Fighting Irish (.9973) moved into first place in the standings for the first time. “Now we don’t have to
