All-season room bridges gap between indoors, out (MS) - Time spent entertaining and relaxing outdoors increases in relation to the weather. As the temperature rises, most people can't wait to get outside and enjoy the fresh air. But Mother Nature .:an be unpredictable, and having an area of the home that serves as a close second to the great outdoors can prove invaluable. All-season spaces, many times known as "Florida rooms," can be a welcome addition to your home. While they serve to bring a bit of the outdoors in. they also make the pertect transitional space from leisure time outstde to under the roof. These spaces .:an be as simple or as elaborate as you desire. For example, a simple breezeway or vestibule between the yard and the kitchen - a glorified mudroom - can house gardening supplies, muddy shoes and baseball caps. People who desire a larger, more recreational space can fashion their room with large windows to allow in natural light and air. hot tubs, indoor/outdoor furniture and more . Others may create a solarium or greenhouse effect and till the space with lush plants and tlowers. It all depends on what you need or want most. Finding a location Certain areas work well with adjacent all-season rooms. Consider locating yours near the kitchen, \\ hich inevitably serves as a mudroom/junk collection area when a more detined sp~ce is lacking. Plus, having close proximity to food storage and preparation areas makes it easy to entertain in the all-season space or outdoors. Utility rooms can also be expanded, or choose a space that butts up to a garage. Any area that is a transitional area from the outside to the main part of the home can benefit from an all-season conversion. Equipping your space Depending upon use, there are certain " neceSsities" for your room. Good ideas include hooks or pegs for hanging hats and coats when they'll need to "drip-dry" AP ECONOMICS WRITER WASHINGTON - Sales of existing homes unexpectedly rose in February by the largest amount in nearly three year-., but analysts expressed fears that the recovery for the battered housing industry will be slowed by spreading troubles in mortgage lending. The National Association of Realtors reported Friday that sales of existing homes rose by 3.9 percent last month, pushed higher by a sharp increase in sal es activity in the No.rthea.st. It was "the biggest increase sint:e a similar increase in March 2004. The increase pushed sales up to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 6.69 million units, still 3.6 percent lower than a year ago. Sales fell by 8.5 percent for all of last year as housing hit a sharp slowdown after setting sales records for five straight years. Analysts, who had been looking for sales to decline in February , said the increase retlected warmer weather in the Northeast and Midwest and said that the housing industry is still not on a sustained rebound. "Sales cannot be sustained at this level, which is way above the pace implied by mortgage applications," said Jan Shepherdson, chief at High economist Frequency Economics. The price of a median home sold last month dropped to $212,800, down by 1.3 percent from the same month in 2006 . It marked a record seven straight months that the median home prime has after nasty weather.

Plus, it is a good idea to have two doors fol" vour all-season room: one that leads to the outdoors and one that provides entry to the house. This fallen compared to the same period a year ago. Analysts said the price decline s were helping to lure buyers back into the market. Elut analysts expressed concerns about what the growing problems in the subprime lending market will do to the prospects for future sales. Subprime mortgages were offered to people with weak credit histories who could not qualify for standard types of mortgages. Now an increasing number of those mortgages are going into default. That is forcing lenders to tighten up on their loan standards, meaning people who would have qualified for subprime mortgages will not be able to do so. David Lereah, chief economist for the Realtors, said he believed that demand for homes could be cut by 150,000 to 200,000 annually over this year and 2008 because of the lending troubles. "Our view is that the tightening in the subprime market will have a negative impact on home sales," Lereah said. "It probably won't postpone the recovery ' (in housing) but it will slow it." By region of the country, sales were up 14.2 percent in the Northeast, a gain that was attributed in part to warmer-than-normal weather this winter, which spurred sales. Sales of existing homes were up 3.9 percent in the Midwest and 1.6 percent in the South, while sales . were unchanged in the West. Lereah said the reluctance of sellers in the West to trim prices was holding back a rebound in that region . \..

NATION • WORLD The Daily Seritinel. Lott says Senate won't pass Iraq timetable Bv HOPE YEN ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER WASHINGTON - With his go-it-alone approach on Iraq, President Bush is flouting Congress and the public, so angering lawmakers that some consider impeachment an option over his war policy, a senator from Bush's own party said Sunday. Meanwhile, the Senate's No. 2 Republican leader harshly criticized House Democrats for setting an "artificial date" for withdrawing troops from Iraq and said he believes Republicans have enough votes to prevent passage of a similar bill in the Senate. "We need to put that kind of decision in the hands of our commanders who are there on the ground with the men and women." said Sen. Trent Lott, R-Miss. "For Congress to impose an artificial date of any kind is totally irresponsible." GOP Sen. Chuck Hagel of Nebraska, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and a frequent critic of the war, stopped short of calling for Bush's impeachment. But he made clear that some lawmakers viewed that as an option should Bush choose to push ahead despite public sentiment against the war. "Any president who says, I don't care, or I will not respond to what the people of this country are saying about Iraq or anything else. or I don 1 care what the Congress does, I am going to proceed - if a president really believes that, then there are - what I was pointing out, there are ways to deal with that," said Hagel, who is considering a 2008 presidential run. The White House had no immediate reaction Sunday to Hagel's comments. The Senate planned to begin debate Monday on a war spendins; bill that would set a nonbmding goal of March 31. 2008, for the removal of combat troops. That comes after the House narrowly passed a bill Friday that would pay for wars in Iraq and Afghanistan this year but would require that combat troops come home from Iraq before September 2008 or earlier if the Iraqi government did not meet certain requirements. On Sunday, Hagel said he was bothered by Bush's apparent disregard of congressional sentiment on Iraq, such as his decision to send additional troops. He said lawmakers now stood ready to stand up to the president when necessary. In the April editil)n of Esquire magazine, Hagel described Bush as someone who doesn't believe he's accountable to anyone. "He's not accountable anymore, which isn 't totally true. You can impeach him, and before this"is over, you might see calls for his impeachment. I don't know. It depends on how this goes," Hagel told the magazine. In his weekly address Saturday, Bush accused Democrats of partisanship in the House vote and said it would cut the number of troops below a level that U.S. military commanders say they need. Vice President Dick Cheney also accused Democrats of undermining U.S. troops in Iraq and of sending a message to terrorists that America will retreat in the face danger. "We have clearly a situation where the president has lost the confidence of the American people in his war effort," Hagel said. "It is now time. going into the fifth year of that effo!l, for the Congress to step forward and be part of setting some boundaries and some conditions as to our involvement." "This is not a monarchy," be added, referring to the possibility that some lawmakers may seek impeachment. "lbere are ways to deal with it. And I would hope the president understands that."

Iranian naval vessels on Friday, seized 15 British sailors who had boarded a merchant ship in Iraqi waters of the Persian Gulf. British officials do not know where Iran is holding 15 sailors· and marines captured in the Persian Gulf, and requests for access to· them have been denied, the Foreign Office said Sunday as Tehran again protested what It called their illegal entry into Iranian waters. Iranian waters," Mottaki said in Persian through a translator at a news conference in New York on Sunday. '"In terms of legal issues, it's under investigation." Mottaki declined to provide the e'xact coordinates of where the Britons were seized, saying this "very detailed information has beeh submitted to the representatives of the Untied Kingdom." A spokesman for Britain's defense ministry said London was not releasing the coordinates. Beckett reiterated that the sailors and marines had been searching for smugglers in Iraqi waters under an agreement with the Baghdad government when they were seized by the naval forces of Iran's Revolutionary Guard, the Foreign Office said. "The Iranian authorities intercepted these sailors and marines in Iranian waters and detained them in Iranian waters. This has happened in the past, as well," Mottaki said. The Iranian state news agency IRNA said that Ibrahim Rahimpour, the foreign ministry official in charge of western Europe, had told British Ambassador Geoffrey Adams that the British sailors and marines were "well and sound" and that "legal proceedings" were under way. Iran's top military official, Gen. Ali Reza Afshar, said on Saturday the seized Britons were taken to Tehran for questioning and had confessed to what he called an "aggression into the Islamic Republic of Iran's waters." The capture and detention of the British service personnel increased tensions between Iran and the West already high over Tehran's nuclear program and allegations that Iran is interfering with the U.S.-led war in Iraq. The U.N. Security Council agreed Saturday to tougher sanctions against Iran for its refusal to meet U.N. demands that it halt uranium .enrichment. Many in the West fear the country's civilian nuclear research is cover for a weapons program, a claim Iran denies. Iranian hard-liners have already called for the 15 Britons to be held until Iran wins concessions from the West. British, Israeli and Saudi media reports on Sunday sug~ested that Iran was hopmg to trade them for Iranian officials it claims have been abducted by the West in recent months. Ali Askari, former head of an elite unit of the Revolutionary Guard, disappeared in Turkey six weeks ago; several months earlier, six Iranian officials were captured by U.S. forces an Iranian liaison office in Senators question Gonzales credibility in prosecutors' firings Bv LARA JAKES JORDAN ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER WASHINGTON Republican support for Attorney General Alberto Gonzales eroded Sunday as three key senators sharply questioned his honesty over last fall's firings of eight federdl. prosecutors. Additionally, two Democrats joined the list of lawmakers calling for Gonzales' ouster. Several Republicans also urged President Bush to allow sworn testimony from his top aides about their role in dismissing the U.S. attorneysa standoff threatening to result in Capitol Hill subpoenas of White House offictals. The embattled attorney general was facing the toughest test of his tw()-year tenure at the Justice Department with the release of documents suggesting he was more involved with the firings than he indicated earlier. Democrats have accused the Justice Department and the White House of purging the prosecutors for political reasons. 1be Bush administration maintains the ftrings were not improper because U.S. attorneys are political appointees. Stopping short of demanding Gonz&les' resignation, Sen. Arlen Sf!ecter cited a Nov. 27 calendar entry placing the attorney general at a Justice Department meeting to discuss the dismissals. Tho:;e documents "appear to contradict" Gonzales' earlier statements that he never participated in such conversations, said Specter, top Republican on fhe Senate Judiciary Committee that oversees the Justice Department. ''We have to have an attorney general who is candid, truthful. And if we find out he has not been candid and truthful, that's a very compelling reason for him not to stay on," said Specter, R-Pa. Sv.ecter said he. would wait unttl Gonzales' scheduled April 17 testimony to the committee before deciding whether he could continue to support the attorney general. He called it a "make or break" appeamnce. Sen. Lindsey Graham, RS.C.. said Gonzales has been "wounded" by the firings . "He has said some things that just don't add up," said Graham, who also is on the Senate Judiciary panel. And Sen. Chuck Hagel, R-Neb., said the Justice Depanrnent has continually changed its story about the dismissals. · " You cannot have the nation's chief law enforcement officer with a cloud hanging over his credibility," Hagel said. At the same time. Democratic Sens. Dianne Feinstein of California and Bill Nelson of Florida said Gonzales should step down. "The nation is not well served by this:" said Feinstein. whose state had • two U.S. attorneys ftred in the purge - in San Diego and San Francisco. Nelson said Gonzales should resign because he has "lost his erectibility" but added: "I think we ought to go through the procedures and hear what he says." At a March 13 news conference, trying to stem the furor over the firings, Gonzales said, "I never saw documents. We never had a discussion about where things stood." But his Nov. 27 schedule, included in a batch of memos sent to Capitol Hill late Friday, showed he attended an hour-long meeting at which, aides said. he approved a detailed plan for executing the purge. The White House continued to back Gonzales, a fellow Texan and longtime friend of Bush. "lbe president supports the attorney general." White House spokeswoman Nicole Guillemard said Sunday. She said the White ijouse does not believe Gonzales' statements were inconsistent with what his calendar showed. Since the schedule's release. Justice aides have said Gonzales meant he was not involved in selecting the prosecutors when he said he dido 't participate ·in discussions about their tirings. "He didn't say · he wasn' t involved,'' former Republican chairman Ed Gillespie said Sunday. lrbil, the capital of the Kurdish self-ruled region of Iraq. One was later released. Iran sai\1 it was a government liaison office. The U.S. military said those detained were connected to an Iranian Revolutionary Guard unit that funds and arms insurgents in Iraq. Sobh-e-Sadejlh. the officia! publication of the Revolutionary Guards, said in a January article that it would be easy to kidnap Americans and transfer them to '"any location of choice" in retaliation for any attack. According to !RNA's English-language Web site, Adams said du{ing the meeting in Tehran that the British service-members had been deployed in Iraq to establish security, and had no hostile intention toward Iran. "Tehran has always exercised self-restraint in the face of border violations br, the British troops, ' Rahimpour was quoted as saying. But after the "contradictory statements" in the seizure of the British, the case "required an inquiry into such suspicious events."

Clubs and organizations PageA3 BYTHEBEND Community Calendar Of sailors aserious, hlndiiDI.IISSU8 Bv TARIQ PANJA LONDON Prime Minister Tony Blair on Sunday called the Iranian seizure of 15 British sailors and marines "unjustified and wrong," saying in his first remarks on the escalating confrontation that London saw it as a "very serious situation." Iran said legal proceedings were under way, suggesting the possibility that the group may be tried for illegally entering Iranian waters off the coast of Iraq. U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice insisted during a trip to the Middle East that the Britons be released, saying "we all fully trust the British" account. Blair disputed Tehran's claim that the 15 were in Iranian territorial waters at the time they were seized on Friday. "There is no doubt at all that these people were taken from a boat in Iraqi waters," Blair said during a European Union meeting in Berlin. "It is simply not true that they went into Iranian territorial waters, and I hope the Iranian government understands how fu·ndamental an issue this is for' us. We have certainly sent the message back to them very clearly indeed. They should not be under any doubt at all about how seriously we regard this act, which is unjustified and wrong." Britain and the United States have said the sailors and marines were intercepted just after they completed a search of a civilian vessel in the Iraqi part of the Shalt at-Arab waterway, where the border with Iran has historically been disputed. "I have not been commenting up to now because I want to get it resolved in as easy and diplomatic a way as ~ssible,' Blair said. "But this is a very serious situation." In a telephone conversation with British Foreign Secretary Margaret Beckett late Sunday, Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki gave no fmn commitment on the service members' release. or even whether British officials would be allowed to meet them, the British Foreign Office said.

Lott says Senate won't pass Iraq timetable Bv HOPE YEN ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER WASHINGTON - With his go-it-alone approach on Iraq, President Bush is flouting Congress and the public, so angering lawmakers that some consider impeachment an option over his war policy, a senator from Bush's own party said Sunday. Meanwhile, the Senate's No. 2 Republican leader harshly criticized House Democrats for setting an "artificial date" for withdrawing troops from Iraq and said he believes Republicans have enough votes to prevent passage of a similar bill in the Senate. "We need to put that kind of decision in the hands of our commanders who are there on the ground with the men and women." said Sen. Trent Lott, R-Miss. "For Congress to impose an artificial date of any kind is totally irresponsible." GOP Sen. Chuck Hagel of Nebraska, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and a frequent critic of the war, stopped short of calling for Bush's impeachment. But he made clear that some lawmakers viewed that as an option should Bush choose to push ahead despite public sentiment against the war. "Any president who says, I don't care, or I will not respond to what the people of this country are saying about Iraq or anything else. or I don 1 care what the Congress does, I am going to proceed - if a president really believes that, then there are - what I was pointing out, there are ways to deal with that," said Hagel, who is considering a 2008 presidential run. The White House had no immediate reaction Sunday to Hagel's comments. The Senate planned to begin debate Monday on a war spendins; bill that would set a nonbmding goal of March 31. 2008, for the removal of combat troops. That comes after the House narrowly passed a bill Friday that would pay for wars in Iraq and Afghanistan this year but would require that combat troops come home from Iraq before September 2008 or earlier if the Iraqi government did not meet certain requirements. On Sunday, Hagel said he was bothered by Bush's apparent disregard of congressional sentiment on Iraq, such as his decision to send additional troops. He said lawmakers now stood ready to stand up to the president when necessary. In the April editil)n of Esquire magazine, Hagel described Bush as someone who doesn't believe he's accountable to anyone. "He's not accountable anymore, which isn 't totally true. You can impeach him, and before this"is over, you might see calls for his impeachment. I don't know. It depends on how this goes," Hagel told the magazine. In his weekly address Saturday, Bush accused Democrats of partisanship in the House vote and said it would cut the number of troops below a level that U.S. military commanders say they need. Vice President Dick Cheney also accused Democrats of undermining U.S. troops in Iraq and of sending a message to terrorists that America will retreat in the face danger. "We have clearly a situation where the president has lost the confidence of the American people in his war effort," Hagel said. "It is now time. going into the fifth year of that effo!l, for the Congress to step forward and be part of setting some boundaries and some conditions as to our involvement." "This is not a monarchy," be added, referring to the possibility that some lawmakers may seek impeachment. "lbere are ways to deal with it. And I would hope the president understands that."

Iranian naval vessels on Friday, seized 15 British sailors who had boarded a merchant ship in Iraqi waters of the Persian Gulf. British officials do not know where Iran is holding 15 sailors· and marines captured in the Persian Gulf, and requests for access to· them have been denied, the Foreign Office said Sunday as Tehran again protested what It called their illegal entry into Iranian waters. Iranian waters," Mottaki said in Persian through a translator at a news conference in New York on Sunday. '"In terms of legal issues, it's under investigation." Mottaki declined to provide the e'xact coordinates of where the Britons were seized, saying this "very detailed information has beeh submitted to the representatives of the Untied Kingdom." A spokesman for Britain's defense ministry said London was not releasing the coordinates. Beckett reiterated that the sailors and marines had been searching for smugglers in Iraqi waters under an agreement with the Baghdad government when they were seized by the naval forces of Iran's Revolutionary Guard, the Foreign Office said. "The Iranian authorities intercepted these sailors and marines in Iranian waters and detained them in Iranian waters. This has happened in the past, as well," Mottaki said. The Iranian state news agency IRNA said that Ibrahim Rahimpour, the foreign ministry official in charge of western Europe, had told British Ambassador Geoffrey Adams that the British sailors and marines were "well and sound" and that "legal proceedings" were under way. Iran's top military official, Gen. Ali Reza Afshar, said on Saturday the seized Britons were taken to Tehran for questioning and had confessed to what he called an "aggression into the Islamic Republic of Iran's waters." The capture and detention of the British service personnel increased tensions between Iran and the West already high over Tehran's nuclear program and allegations that Iran is interfering with the U.S.-led war in Iraq. The U.N. Security Council agreed Saturday to tougher sanctions against Iran for its refusal to meet U.N. demands that it halt uranium .enrichment. Many in the West fear the country's civilian nuclear research is cover for a weapons program, a claim Iran denies. Iranian hard-liners have already called for the 15 Britons to be held until Iran wins concessions from the West. British, Israeli and Saudi media reports on Sunday sug~ested that Iran was hopmg to trade them for Iranian officials it claims have been abducted by the West in recent months. Ali Askari, former head of an elite unit of the Revolutionary Guard, disappeared in Turkey six weeks ago; several months earlier, six Iranian officials were captured by U.S. forces an Iranian liaison office in Senators question Gonzales credibility in prosecutors' firings Bv LARA JAKES JORDAN ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER WASHINGTON Republican support for Attorney General Alberto Gonzales eroded Sunday as three key senators sharply questioned his honesty over last fall's firings of eight federdl. prosecutors. Additionally, two Democrats joined the list of lawmakers calling for Gonzales' ouster. Several Republicans also urged President Bush to allow sworn testimony from his top aides about their role in dismissing the U.S. attorneysa standoff threatening to result in Capitol Hill subpoenas of White House offictals. The embattled attorney general was facing the toughest test of his tw()-year tenure at the Justice Department with the release of documents suggesting he was more involved with the firings than he indicated earlier. Democrats have accused the Justice Department and the White House of purging the prosecutors for political reasons. 1be Bush administration maintains the ftrings were not improper because U.S. attorneys are political appointees. Stopping short of demanding Gonz&les' resignation, Sen. Arlen Sf!ecter cited a Nov. 27 calendar entry placing the attorney general at a Justice Department meeting to discuss the dismissals. Tho:;e documents "appear to contradict" Gonzales' earlier statements that he never participated in such conversations, said Specter, top Republican on fhe Senate Judiciary Committee that oversees the Justice Department. ''We have to have an attorney general who is candid, truthful. And if we find out he has not been candid and truthful, that's a very compelling reason for him not to stay on," said Specter, R-Pa. Sv.ecter said he. would wait unttl Gonzales' scheduled April 17 testimony to the committee before deciding whether he could continue to support the attorney general. He called it a "make or break" appeamnce. Sen. Lindsey Graham, RS.C.. said Gonzales has been "wounded" by the firings . "He has said some things that just don't add up," said Graham, who also is on the Senate Judiciary panel. And Sen. Chuck Hagel, R-Neb., said the Justice Depanrnent has continually changed its story about the dismissals. · " You cannot have the nation's chief law enforcement officer with a cloud hanging over his credibility," Hagel said. At the same time. Democratic Sens. Dianne Feinstein of California and Bill Nelson of Florida said Gonzales should step down. "The nation is not well served by this:" said Feinstein. whose state had • two U.S. attorneys ftred in the purge - in San Diego and San Francisco. Nelson said Gonzales should resign because he has "lost his erectibility" but added: "I think we ought to go through the procedures and hear what he says." At a March 13 news conference, trying to stem the furor over the firings, Gonzales said, "I never saw documents. We never had a discussion about where things stood." But his Nov. 27 schedule, included in a batch of memos sent to Capitol Hill late Friday, showed he attended an hour-long meeting at which, aides said. he approved a detailed plan for executing the purge. The White House continued to back Gonzales, a fellow Texan and longtime friend of Bush. "lbe president supports the attorney general." White House spokeswoman Nicole Guillemard said Sunday. She said the White ijouse does not believe Gonzales' statements were inconsistent with what his calendar showed. Since the schedule's release. Justice aides have said Gonzales meant he was not involved in selecting the prosecutors when he said he dido 't participate ·in discussions about their tirings.

Iran sai\1 it was a government liaison office. The U.S. military said those detained were connected to an Iranian Revolutionary Guard unit that funds and arms insurgents in Iraq. Sobh-e-Sadejlh. the officia! publication of the Revolutionary Guards, said in a January article that it would be easy to kidnap Americans and transfer them to '"any location of choice" in retaliation for any attack. According to !RNA's English-language Web site, Adams said du{ing the meeting in Tehran that the British service-members had been deployed in Iraq to establish security, and had no hostile intention toward Iran. "Tehran has always exercised self-restraint in the face of border violations br, the British troops, ' Rahimpour was quoted as saying.

Clubs and organizations PageA3 BYTHEBEND Community Calendar Of sailors aserious, hlndiiDI.IISSU8 Bv TARIQ PANJA LONDON Prime Minister Tony Blair on Sunday called the Iranian seizure of 15 British sailors and marines "unjustified and wrong," saying in his first remarks on the escalating confrontation that London saw it as a "very serious situation." Iran said legal proceedings were under way, suggesting the possibility that the group may be tried for illegally entering Iranian waters off the coast of Iraq. U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice insisted during a trip to the Middle East that the Britons be released, saying "we all fully trust the British" account. Blair disputed Tehran's claim that the 15 were in Iranian territorial waters at the time they were seized on Friday. "There is no doubt at all that these people were taken from a boat in Iraqi waters," Blair said during a European Union meeting in Berlin. "It is simply not true that they went into Iranian territorial waters, and I hope the Iranian government understands how fu·ndamental an issue this is for' us. We have certainly sent the message back to them very clearly indeed. They should not be under any doubt at all about how seriously we regard this act, which is unjustified and wrong." Britain and the United States have said the sailors and marines were intercepted just after they completed a search of a civilian vessel in the Iraqi part of the Shalt at-Arab waterway, where the border with Iran has historically been disputed. "I have not been commenting up to now because I want to get it resolved in as easy and diplomatic a way as ~ssible,' Blair said. "But this is a very serious situation." In a telephone conversation with British Foreign Secretary Margaret Beckett late Sunday, Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki gave no fmn commitment on the service members' release. or even whether British officials would be allowed to meet them, the British Foreign Office said. "The charge against them is illegal entrance into The Daily Sentinel hPPOfl • instanl Mau&gil'lg - ~fifJP yOJ.X buddp lis: • !0 ~tom<~~l ed!lresses 'Ndh 5pa(rl f>rot8c:bcn • Custom $161 Page - ~t. wealtlef & trrOtt1 cs:;-vp~~'.!.,~ Sign Up C)nUnt! ww.LOCIANtt.eom April 16, 17, 18, 19, 23. 24, 25, and 26.

Such moves, however, r'dise difficult issues for custodial parents. non-custodial parents, and children alike. Q: I am di von:ed and have custody of my children. What should I do if I want to move? A.: Ohio law requires you to file a notice of intent to relocate with the court that issued the custody order. The notice of intent to relocate must include your new address unless this is otherwise prohibited by a coon order. The court will send a copy of the· notice to relocate to the non-custodial parent. Q.: My ex-spouse does not want me to move with our children. What should I do? A.: If a non-custodial parent objects 10 the relocation after receiving the notice of intent to relocate. the coon in which the notice was flied will conduct a hearing to determine whether a modification of the parenting time schedule may be made to accommodate the relocation. For example. if an increased geographical distance between the parents makes weekly or bi-weekly parenting time impossible, then the oowt may allow the children to spend a long summer vacation and most school breaks with a noncustodial parent to compensate. Ohio law provides that a court may allow such a modification if it is edetennined to be in the children's best interest mine an appropriate parenting time schedule. If the court· detennines that it is not app!'(>priate to modify the current schedule. then your spouse will not be able to move with the children to any location that will make it impossible to follow the current schedule. Why would a court deny a parent's request to relocate'' A.: Ohio law provides that modilication of a parenting time schedule to accommodate a relocation will not be allowed if the move would not be in the children's best interest. Relocation requests may be denied for many reasons including the following: I) there is no legitimate reason for the move; 2) there is significant local involvement of the children's extended family; and 3) there is evidence that the relocating .parent is unable or unwilling to cooperate with the parenting schedule, Q.: ~~ Bloodmobile visits Meigs Senior Center After '06 successes, labor gets ready for presidential race : BY DAN SEWELL In mobile society, moving from Howling at strip malls: Coyote sightings move to the suburbs Easter egg hunt ~~~------- -- Relocation raises problems for divorced parents Q.: What happens if a court denies a request to relocate? A.: If the custodial parent decides to move with the children despite the court's denial of the request to relocate, then the custodial parent is in violation of the court order. The non-custodial parent may then ask the court to hold the custodial parent in contempt. order the return of the children. and grant custody to the non-custodial parent.

Such moves, however, r'dise difficult issues for custodial parents. non-custodial parents, and children alike. Q: I am di von:ed and have custody of my children. What should I do if I want to move? A.: Ohio law requires you to file a notice of intent to relocate with the court that issued the custody order. The notice of intent to relocate must include your new address unless this is otherwise prohibited by a coon order. The court will send a copy of the· notice to relocate to the non-custodial parent. Q.: My ex-spouse does not want me to move with our children. What should I do? A.: If a non-custodial parent objects 10 the relocation after receiving the notice of intent to relocate. the coon in which the notice was flied will conduct a hearing to determine whether a modification of the parenting time schedule may be made to accommodate the relocation. For example. if an increased geographical distance between the parents makes weekly or bi-weekly parenting time impossible, then the oowt may allow the children to spend a long summer vacation and most school breaks with a noncustodial parent to compensate. Ohio law provides that a court may allow such a modification if it is edetennined to be in the children's best interest mine an appropriate parenting time schedule. If the court· detennines that it is not app!'(>priate to modify the current schedule. then your spouse will not be able to move with the children to any location that will make it impossible to follow the current schedule. Why would a court deny a parent's request to relocate'' A.: Ohio law provides that modilication of a parenting time schedule to accommodate a relocation will not be allowed if the move would not be in the children's best interest. Relocation requests may be denied for many reasons including the following: I) there is no legitimate reason for the move; 2) there is significant local involvement of the children's extended family; and 3) there is evidence that the relocating .parent is unable or unwilling to cooperate with the parenting schedule, Q.: ~~ Bloodmobile visits Meigs Senior Center After '06 successes, labor gets ready for presidential race : BY DAN SEWELL In mobile society, moving from Howling at strip malls: Coyote sightings move to the suburbs Easter egg hunt ~~~------- -- Relocation raises problems for divorced parents Q.: What happens if a court denies a request to relocate? A.: If the custodial parent decides to move with the children despite the court's denial of the request to relocate, then the custodial parent is in violation of the court order. The non-custodial parent may then ask the court to hold the custodial parent in contempt. order the return of the children. and grant custody to the non-custodial parent.

The outfielder signed a Busch fromPageBl door duel in Las Vegas two weeks ago that Burton won as Busc h spun bac kward across the finish line. Burton credited Busch with racing clean that day, and both drivers had it fresh in their memories on the final three laps Sunday. "Jeff Bunon easily could have dumped me there in three and four, but I think our Vegas finish helped me out a little bit with that," Busch said. "I think I had some brownie points to use up." Busch took the lead with 16 laps to go on a smooth pass around Denny Hamhn m thick traffic and stayed there through a pair of cautions. He had driven away from the competition when the 15th and final caution set up a three-lap overtime. With Busch and teammate Jeff Gordon running 1-2 at the · restart, the two plotted their own strategy with their respective crew chiefs. "Well. good job guys." Busch sighed at the final caution. "We 'll do what we can. I can 'I promise you anything." "He'll be nice," crew chie f Alan Gustafson said.

In only 30 college games, Oden has taken over plenty of them. None, however, was as impressive as this one, mainly because it was so important. "This would probably be No. I on the impact meter," Matta said. "I thought his rebounding, hts challenging shots, fimshing at the other end wa.'i tremendous." Muttered Memphis coach John CaliP,ari: "He's huge. he's huge.' In only 24 minutes, Oden made 7-of-8 shots and was 3-of-6 from the lme wtth a block that came on the first defensive stand after he returned with three fouls. Two of his dunks were so powerful it looked like he was doing chin-ups on the rim. Yet his larger-than-life presence was best exhibited on a crocial sequence midway through the second half. Oden was wide open unde r the basket when caught a pass that arrived at the same time as Memphis· Chris Douglas-Roberts. The defender threw both arms around Oden's waist and shoved htm for an intentional foul. Oden stiU made the shot, then one of two free throws, tying the game at 60.

The Buckeyes last made the Final Four in 1999, when a team led by Michael Redd and Scoonie Penn lost to eventual national champion Connecticut. That trip later was expunged from the records because of NCAA violations, making their last official appearance in 1968. Mike Conley Jr. - the son of a former Olympic star and Oden ' s high school teammate - set the pace for the Buckeyes with hardcharging drives. He scored 19 points and led Ohio State to its second-highest sconng game of the season. He also was named the top player in the region. Lewis continued hi s steady tournament play with 22 points and. six rebounds. Jamar Butler added 12 points The Buckeyes made S I percent of their shots, and were 35-of-41 from the foul line, never gtvlllg Memphis a chance to get back in the game down the stretch. As this game turned into a rout. Ohio State fans, who' d anguished through big comebacks and crucial lastsecond shots the last two games, were breathing easily. Many were already wondering how much longer they ' II get to savor Oden in scarlet and white. Those at the Alamodome made their thoughts on the subject clear by chanting "ODe more year!" during the postgame, net-cutting ceremony. They later hollered, "Two more games," which could bring the Buckeyes their second basketball title an\! fu:st since the 1960 club that featured John Havhce k, Jerry Lucas and a backup named Bob Krugh!. Memphis fell a game shy of the Final Four for a second straight season. The Conference USA champs were riding a· 25-game winning streak and plenty confident tbey could handle the Big Ten champs. Tigers big man Joey Dorsey said Friday he was Goliath and Oden was "the little man." Score another one for David. as Oden held Dorsey to four rebounds and zero points. his ftrst scoreless outing of the season. Dorsey ;llso drew four fouls in 19 mmutes. " My coaches told me about it and I was just like ' Dang, he just called me out,"' Oden said. "I didn' t try to think about it. I just wanted to go out there and play my game and not let his comments get to my head. In the Big Ten, you have fans say it all the time." Conley said Dorsey ' s comments "affected us as a team more than it affected Greg." "When somebody talks about Greg, they ' re talking about all of us," Conley said. The Ti~ers hung in early by shooung 7-of-10 on 3pointers in the ftrst half. a surprising start constdering they began last year ' s regional finals loss to UCLA 0-for - 14 from behind the arc.

The Tar Heels actually had a chance to win in regulallon, but freshman Wayne Ellington missed an open JUmper from the wing right before the buzzer.

Fla. (AP) - Larry Btgbie did 11 agam . The Los Ange les Dodgers non-roster invitee came up with the game-wi nnmg hu Sunday in a 4-3 win agamst the Cleveland Indians. Bigbie, who had a gamewinn ing hit on March II and leads the team in RBl s wtlh 14. smgled m the bottom of the ninth inning to tie the gam e at three before an out fie ld error allowed the wmnmg run to score " I've been fortun ate to be in those si tu ations a nd co me thro ugh in them," said Bigbie, who is battmg .396 tht s sp n ng. If th at was n' t enough to convince Dod gers management to include Bigbie on the opening day roster, it sure ly should be enough for some other team. The outfielder signed a Busch fromPageBl door duel in Las Vegas two weeks ago that Burton won as Busc h spun bac kward across the finish line. Burton credited Busch with racing clean that day, and both drivers had it fresh in their memories on the final three laps Sunday. "Jeff Bunon easily could have dumped me there in three and four, but I think our Vegas finish helped me out a little bit with that," Busch said. "I think I had some brownie points to use up." Busch took the lead with 16 laps to go on a smooth pass around Denny Hamhn m thick traffic and stayed there through a pair of cautions. He had driven away from the competition when the 15th and final caution set up a three-lap overtime. With Busch and teammate Jeff Gordon running 1-2 at the · restart, the two plotted their own strategy with their respective crew chiefs. "Well. good job guys." Busch sighed at the final caution. "We 'll do what we can. I can 'I promise you anything." "He'll be nice," crew chie f Alan Gustafson said. NCAA from PageBl in by fouling. but Ohio State foiled that plan by making 20 straight free throws. The Buckeyes' 21st straight wm lakes them to Atlanta next weekend for a national semifinal matchup with the winner of Sunday's North Carolina - Georgetown game. In only 30 college games, Oden has taken over plenty of them. None, however, was as impressive as this one, mainly because it was so important. "This would probably be No. I on the impact meter," Matta said. "I thought his rebounding, hts challenging shots, fimshing at the other end wa.'i tremendous." Muttered Memphis coach John CaliP,ari: "He's huge. he's huge.' In only 24 minutes, Oden made 7-of-8 shots and was 3-of-6 from the lme wtth a block that came on the first defensive stand after he returned with three fouls. Two of his dunks were so powerful it looked like he was doing chin-ups on the rim. Yet his larger-than-life presence was best exhibited on a crocial sequence midway through the second half. Oden was wide open unde r the basket when caught a pass that arrived at the same time as Memphis· Chris Douglas-Roberts. The defender threw both arms around Oden's waist and shoved htm for an intentional foul. Oden stiU made the shot, then one of two free throws, tying the game at 60. Ohio State got to keep J.he ball and went ahead 6260. The Buckeyes ne ver trai led agai n. " I real ly hope it was an intentional foul because it was a difference-maker." Calipari said. " It reall y changed the game .. • minor- league contract early tn February that includes an opt-out clause if the Dodgers do not place him on the major league roster. The dead li ne is Wednesday. Bigbie wants to be on a 25-man roster, but hopes it is with the Dodgers. •·J have show n them what I can do and I' ve butlt that camaraderie, a nd gomg into another c lubhouse I fee l like I would have to go o ut and prove myse lf again," Btgbie satd. lndt ans ce nt e r fie lder Grady Stzemore hasn · t bee n quite as successful th ts spring but took a ste p tn the r ight d irec tio n Sund ay. hitti ng hi s fi rst triple to right fie ld in the seve nth.

He allowed six hits and three walks. " I'm gettt ng closer." Schmtdt said .

" I can lay in bed tonight and wonder, 'What teams fretting for months tf?' But that's what I chose over performance and the to do. If you can't pass him many unknowns the COT without knocking him out created. . But when the race finally of the way. do the best you Said Buckeyes senior Ron Lewis: " It put fuel on the fire." The Buckeyes last made the Final Four in 1999, when a team led by Michael Redd and Scoonie Penn lost to eventual national champion Connecticut. That trip later was expunged from the records because of NCAA violations, making their last official appearance in 1968. Mike Conley Jr. - the son of a former Olympic star and Oden ' s high school teammate - set the pace for the Buckeyes with hardcharging drives. He scored 19 points and led Ohio State to its second-highest sconng game of the season. He also was named the top player in the region. Lewis continued hi s steady tournament play with 22 points and. six rebounds. Jamar Butler added 12 points The Buckeyes made S I percent of their shots, and were 35-of-41 from the foul line, never gtvlllg Memphis a chance to get back in the game down the stretch. As this game turned into a rout. Ohio State fans, who' d anguished through big comebacks and crucial lastsecond shots the last two games, were breathing easily. Many were already wondering how much longer they ' II get to savor Oden in scarlet and white. Those at the Alamodome made their thoughts on the subject clear by chanting "ODe more year!" during the postgame, net-cutting ceremony. They later hollered, "Two more games," which could bring the Buckeyes their second basketball title an\! fu:st since the 1960 club that featured John Havhce k, Jerry Lucas and a backup named Bob Krugh!. Memphis fell a game shy of the Final Four for a second straight season. The Conference USA champs were riding a· 25-game winning streak and plenty confident tbey could handle the Big Ten champs. Tigers big man Joey Dorsey said Friday he was Goliath and Oden was "the little man." Score another one for David. as Oden held Dorsey to four rebounds and zero points. his ftrst scoreless outing of the season. Dorsey ;llso drew four fouls in 19 mmutes. " My coaches told me about it and I was just like ' Dang, he just called me out,"' Oden said. "I didn' t try to think about it. I just wanted to go out there and play my game and not let his comments get to my head. In the Big Ten, you have fans say it all the time." Conley said Dorsey ' s comments "affected us as a team more than it affected Greg." "When somebody talks about Greg, they ' re talking about all of us," Conley said. The Ti~ers hung in early by shooung 7-of-10 on 3pointers in the ftrst half. a surprising start constdering they began last year ' s regional finals loss to UCLA 0-for - 14 from behind the arc. But they couldn't keep it up. Memphis made only three more on 12 tries after halftime and were further slowed tl,y its star player, Douglas- Roberts, getting into foul trouble. Jeremy Hunt . led the Tigers wtl.h 26 points, 17 in the ftrst hal f. DouglasRoberts scored 14, Willie Kemp had 12 and Antonio Ande rson got 10 points and a suture over his ri~hl eyebro.,., after catchmg an elbow from teammate Robert Dozier in the first half.

Linas Kletza added 14 pomts and JR Smith 13 for Denver, which had dropped two stmight. including a 27point loss to the Raptors. ·•After the last game, as men we had to come out and show our pride," Iverson said The Cavaliers take pnde in their defense. They carne in allowmg an avemge of 87 points in their past seven home games and had held the shorthanded New York Knicks to a seaso[!-Jow 68 points on Thursday. The Nuggets, though, topped that number with 5:45 left in the third on a jumper by Steve Blake. and there were times when Denver players were left unguarded. "Thts was defimtely not one of our best defensive efforts," James said, "and we paid for it." llgauskas scored eight points in the first 4:47 of the founh, bu t beginning with two free throws from Nuggets Ant hony, the outscored Cleveland 17-6 over the last 6:36 to disappoint an energized crowd that mcluded billionaire Warren Buffell - a guest of James. Anthony didn' t need long to put his worst game of the season behind him. scoring 13 points in the frrst quarter on 6-of-9 shooting. But it was Kleiza. left alone by the Cavaliers. who did most of Denver's damage in the second quarter. He scored 12 in the first 5:39, sinking consec utive 3s on his fi rst two shots. as the Nuggets pushed the ball up the lloor as tf they were fac ing a Western Confere nce opponent. "I didn't really want to run a IQJ of plays," Nuggets coach George Karl said. "I just wanted to play fa.~t. We got wild cards from our bench (Kietza and Smith). giving us a big lift." Denver shot a blistering 60 percent from the (loor in the first half, but only led 55-53 at the break. Notes: The Nuggets were only called lor 10 fouls, a league season-low....

Afflalo also played stellar defense and Darren Colhson added 14 points and four big free throws in the final seconds. The Bruins (30-5) made their halftime lead stand up in an appropriately tense meeting between two schools with rich traditions and a combined 30 Final Four appearances - including an NCAA-record 17th for UCLA next week in Atlanta. The Bruins, who lost to Florida in last season's national title game, could be in for a rematch: They'll meet Sunday's winner of the Gators' regional final against Oregon. Brandon Rush scored 18 points for the Jayhawks (335), the first No. I seed to be eliminated from the tournament. Theu 14-game winning stre ak also was snapped in the school's first .

Florida beat UCLA lust year in a rout, 73-57, for its first national championship - and the first half of what would turn out to be the Gator Slam. When Florida beat Ohio State for the national football title in January, the Gators became the first school to be champs in both sports at the same time. Now Florida (33-5) would like to win both crowns in the same calendar year. And make a little history as the first team smce Duke in 1991 -92 to wm back-to-back basketball titles - and the first ever to do it with the same five starters. Oregon was trying to get to the Final Four for the fir st time since wmrun g tt all in 1939, the ftrst year of the NCAA tournament. But the Ducks (29-8) were done in by foul trouble the entire game and Tajuan Porter going cold.

Georgetown 96, North Carolina 84 EAST RUTHERFORD. N.J. - In an NCAA tournament full of tremendous rallies. it was the Hoy as· turn - against North Carolina, of all teams. Georgetown overcame an 11 -pomt deficit in the second half. the n ripped off 14 straight points in overtime to stun the top-seeded Tar Heels Sunday for its first trip to the Final Four since 1985, when the coach was John Thompson and the star player was Patrick Ewing . The Hoyas (30-6) did it this time with coach John Thompson Ill calling the backdoor play s he learned at Princeton and Patrick Ewing Jr. making key contributions. They were helped by an amazing collapse from Carolina (3 1-7), whic h made only one of 23 field goal attempts, inc luding its fi rst 12 in overtime. over a 15 minute-span. The Tar Heels actually had a chance to win in regulallon, but freshman Wayne Ellington missed an open JUmper from the wing right before the buzzer. Thi s time , there would be no game-winrung shot for the Tar Heels as there was in 1982. when fre shman Michael Jordan's jumper ended one of the most thrilling games in college basketball htstory and lifted Carohna over the elder Thompson, Ewmg Sr. and Georgetown. Green led Jeff Georgetown with 2'2 points and fre shman DaJuan Summers added 20. Tyler Hansbrough had 26 pomts and II rebounds for tlie Tar Heels.

Mayo had 41 points. 10 rebounds and II assists in a 103 -61 win over South Charleston a week ago for Huntington's unprecedente d third straight Class AAA championship. This season Mayo averaged 28 points per game and was a near-unanimous selection as West Virginia' s player of the year. His final points were typical Mayo. On a breakaway, he threw the ball underhanded off the backboard, caught it and dunked it in the same motion . He then threw the ball deep into the stands. drawing a technical foul. While hi s popularity attracted more television cameras and bi gger venues. some of the extra attention shed unwanted light on some tough situations.

Mayo is as comfortable in the arena' s hall- . ways as the nearby hardcourt. signing T-shirts for ballboys and autographs for an opponent ' s cheerleaders as a city police officer snaps a photo of one of the nation's top prep players. Admirers like those at the recent state high school tournament followed Mayo through a remarkable but troubled senior season that included a three-game suspension, two losses and a drug charge -- and ended with a championship. "We had a lot of bumps and bruises, a lot of ups and down. This most definitely wasn't an easy ride," Mayo told The Associated Press. "But we stuck together like a family and we finished it off well." · Guess what, kid'? It only gets tougher from here. After a trip to Louisville. Ky .• this week to play in the McDonald 's AllAmerican ~arne with Huntington H1gh teammate Patrick Patterson, Mayo is off to Southern Cal in the fall. It's a significant step for the 6-foot-5 Mayo, whose talent has been followed since he was recruited to play high school ball in Kentucky as a seventh grader. Yet Mayo. who thinks of himself more as a regular 19-year-old than a celebri ty, remains grounded in the lessons of respect and responsibility taught by his mother, Alisha. and his AAU coach and legal guardian, Dwaine Barnes. He often responds to question s with. "Yes, sir." During games he raises his hand and looks toward the scorer's table when a foul is called on him. He goes to Huntington's A.D . Lewis Community Center several times a week to play in a pickup game or remind children about the importance of staying in school. Mayo did, although his high school career spanned three states and six years. He transferred out of Kentucky with current Kansas State player and Huntington native Bill Walker to Cincinnati 's North College Hill in 2003 · where they won two Ohio Division Ill championships and Mayo twice wa s named state player of the year. After Walker was ruled ineligible to play this . season, Mayo moved back to hi s hometown of Huntington.
