Once reports from engineers and the fire marshal are in hand, property owners can bring in their own experts to help craft plans for the buildings' future. But .their plans have to coin cide with safety concerns brought up by state engineers' findings, Clarke stressed. Once an owner's plan is developed and met those co ncerns, it's submit- ted to the state for approval. If it gets the green. light. the owner can proceed, and when work is finished, the state again ·signs ofT. "Wh en th e state issues a report that it's safe to proceed. then I'll remove the barricades," he said.

Clarke said o ne of the top con- ce rns is with the facades of affected structures and det~rmining if they pose a continuing hazard. , What's done with the buildings after state engineers' findings are in is between the owners and the state, he added.

When the tractor moved, water sloshed back onto sco rching metal and instantly turned to steam, creating so much pressure that the engine exploded. " I suspect there was really not quite enough water in there:' Wallace said. Boiler inspectors and metal experts said they do not know why there wasn't enough water in th e boiler, but that the low level co~ld h ave been caused by operator error, mech anical failure or a combination of the two. The tractor carries 375 gallons of water in reserve tanks, but the water has to be transferred to the boiler manually, said Dill Kennedy, . a steam tractor operator who was part of the investigation team. "You constantly have to keep injecting water into this boiler," Kenn edy said. He added that one of the refill valves was found in the open position, suggesting that someone may have been trying to refill the boiler at the time it exploded. Because the tractor operators died in the explosion, "we'll never' know why more water wasn't injected," Sheriff Neil H as.<inger said when asked by reporters why the water level was low.

The tractor's engine exploded when a gush of water hit overheated steel in the boiler. The July 29 blast killed five people and injured about 50 others who were hit by flying shrapnel and soot that was propelled across the f.1irgrounds.'

When the tractor moved, water sloshed back onto sco rching metal and instantly turned to steam, creating so much pressure that the engine exploded. " I suspect there was really not quite enough water in there:' Wallace said. Boiler inspectors and metal experts said they do not know why there wasn't enough water in th e boiler, but that the low level co~ld h ave been caused by operator error, mech anical failure or a combination of the two. The tractor carries 375 gallons of water in reserve tanks, but the water has to be transferred to the boiler manually, said Dill Kennedy, . a steam tractor operator who was part of the investigation team. "You constantly have to keep injecting water into this boiler," Kenn edy said. He added that one of the refill valves was found in the open position, suggesting that someone may have been trying to refill the boiler at the time it exploded. Because the tractor operators died in the explosion, "we'll never' know why more water wasn't injected," Sheriff Neil H as.<inger said when asked by reporters why the water level was low.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) -Joyce Sherman has never had the desire to learn a foreign language. As a housewife, she doesn't deal with situations every day that brings the need to speak anything but English. "It's just not been a requirement for me. I've not had to work with people who speak other languages," the .Cross Lanes resident said Friday. "It just depends a lot. on people who you work with and deal with regularly." A U.S. Census survey shows West Virginians are less likely to speak a foreign language than any other Americans. Nearly 98 percent of West Virginians speak only English. That's the highest rate of any state and well above the nationwide average of 82 percent of residents who only speak English. . Also, West Virginia has the nation's lowest percentage of .those who say they either don't speak English weU or don't speak it at all- 0.2 percent.The numbers also show West Virginians are overwhelmingly white and U.S.-born. "It seems like we're low on a lot of those lists;' Sherman said with a laugh. Conducted along with Census 2000, results &om the survey released this week are &om 700,00() households nationwide and are separate from those wed by the national official headcount. The numbers are estimates of likely answers if the survey involved everyone and has a larger margin of error than the Census itself. But one foreign language expert says the results are a "fairly accurate" picture of a state where a number of economic and social factors make English king of communication. "There has never been the felt need to learn other languages," said Frank Medley, chairman of the West Virginia University Department of Foreign Languages. Sun Jiang of Charleston is a foreignborn West Virginian who knows the importance of English here. Jiang moved to the United States 30 years ago &om Taiwan and has run his own Chinese restaurant in a Charleston shopping mall for seven years . .

(AP) - Seventy-three West Virginia public schools have been ordered to improve their students' standardized test scores, according a report . released this week by the state's ..JOffice of Education Perfor- . rnance Audits. Each has been assigned one of three probationary categories: seriously impaired, conditional accreditation or temporaty accreditation. Schools' performances are based ·on students' scores on the nationally standardized Stanford Achievement Test. The schools are graded on what percentage of their stu. dents scores are in the top 50 percent and the bottom 25 percent of all students taking · the test. Schools that fall below state standards must submit an improvement plan, and the state gives them up to three years to raise their scores . Seriously impaired schools have been on probation and failed to meet their goals during their allotted recovery time. The state recommends consultants go to those schools. Schools under conditional accreditation status have been on probation and haven't yet met their improvement goals, but still have time left. Five schools are seriously impaired: West Middle in Callell County, Man Junior High if! Logan County, Barnes. Elementary In Marion County, Peterstown Elementary in Monroe County and Mount View High in McDowell. Another 10 were assigned conditional accreditation: Tus. carora Elementary m Berkeley County; Lizemore Elementary in Clay County; Chesapeake Elementary. J.R. Robins Elementary, George C. Weimer Elementary, Clendenin Middle and DuPont Middle schools in Kanawha County; Birch River Elementary in Nicholas County; Marlinton Middle School in Pocahontas County and Stratton Elementary in Raleigh County. .

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) -Joyce Sherman has never had the desire to learn a foreign language. As a housewife, she doesn't deal with situations every day that brings the need to speak anything but English. "It's just not been a requirement for me. I've not had to work with people who speak other languages," the .Cross Lanes resident said Friday. "It just depends a lot. on people who you work with and deal with regularly." A U.S. Census survey shows West Virginians are less likely to speak a foreign language than any other Americans. Nearly 98 percent of West Virginians speak only English. That's the highest rate of any state and well above the nationwide average of 82 percent of residents who only speak English. . Also, West Virginia has the nation's lowest percentage of .those who say they either don't speak English weU or don't speak it at all- 0.2 percent.The numbers also show West Virginians are overwhelmingly white and U.S.-born. "It seems like we're low on a lot of those lists;' Sherman said with a laugh. Conducted along with Census 2000, results &om the survey released this week are &om 700,00() households nationwide and are separate from those wed by the national official headcount. The numbers are estimates of likely answers if the survey involved everyone and has a larger margin of error than the Census itself. But one foreign language expert says the results are a "fairly accurate" picture of a state where a number of economic and social factors make English king of communication. "There has never been the felt need to learn other languages," said Frank Medley, chairman of the West Virginia University Department of Foreign Languages. Sun Jiang of Charleston is a foreignborn West Virginian who knows the importance of English here. Jiang moved to the United States 30 years ago &om Taiwan and has run his own Chinese restaurant in a Charleston shopping mall for seven years . . He's picked up the basics of conversational English over the years and says he's able to get by just fine at work, where he spends all day taking orders and ringing up customers at the counter.

(AP) - Seventy-three West Virginia public schools have been ordered to improve their students' standardized test scores, according a report . released this week by the state's ..JOffice of Education Perfor- . rnance Audits. Each has been assigned one of three probationary categories: seriously impaired, conditional accreditation or temporaty accreditation. Schools' performances are based ·on students' scores on the nationally standardized Stanford Achievement Test. The schools are graded on what percentage of their stu. dents scores are in the top 50 percent and the bottom 25 percent of all students taking · the test. Schools that fall below state standards must submit an improvement plan, and the state gives them up to three years to raise their scores . Seriously impaired schools have been on probation and failed to meet their goals during their allotted recovery time. The state recommends consultants go to those schools. Schools under conditional accreditation status have been on probation and haven't yet met their improvement goals, but still have time left. Five schools are seriously impaired: West Middle in Callell County, Man Junior High if! Logan County, Barnes. Elementary In Marion County, Peterstown Elementary in Monroe County and Mount View High in McDowell. Another 10 were assigned conditional accreditation: Tus. carora Elementary m Berkeley County; Lizemore Elementary in Clay County; Chesapeake Elementary. J.R. Robins Elementary, George C. Weimer Elementary, Clendenin Middle and DuPont Middle schools in Kanawha County; Birch River Elementary in Nicholas County; Marlinton Middle School in Pocahontas County and Stratton Elementary in Raleigh County. .

WASHINGTON (AP) - The debate over stem cells is shifting to the halls of Congress, but the action is moving to the nation's laboratories as scientists begin the painstaking work of translating promise into actual treatments. President Bush's decision to allow limited federal funding for the research offered both comfort and angst to advocates on both sides of the debate. And it complicated the .politics all around. Bush may have satisfied just enough people just enough to stave off congressional action. "The president probably bought himself some time;' said Thomas Mann at the Brookings Institution. "Pressure will build · again, but it will take some time." At issue is research involving days-old human embryos. each one smaller than the period at the end of this sentence, left over from fertility treatments. Inside sit stem cells that can develop into any type of tissue. Scientists say these cells could help cure '• many diseases, but in order to get them out, the .embryo must be destroyed. For some who believe life begins at conception, this amounts to taking one life to try and save another. Trying to thread an ethical needle, Bush said Thursday that he would allow federal funding for research on stem cell lines, but only those that have already been created. Each embryo can yield one stem cell line, which can continue replicating indefinitely. At the Nation:illnstitutes of Health on Friday, researchers were beginning to cat- Unattended childnn drown · Suspect leads police to body alogue th e existing stem cell lines, which officials now estimate at 60 worldwide. Around the country, scientists were beginning to hone their ideas for grant applications, which were expected to be submitr ted and awarded by early next year. Dr. Harold Varmus, who led the NIH under President Clinton, predicted hun~ dreds of researche~ would get into the field, even under limitedfunding. Ultirnately, he predicted that the federal government would spend tens to hundreds of millions of dollars per year in this field; . Dr. Catherine Verfaillie, who directs the University of Minnesota Stem Cell Institute, said the political rurmoil surrounding this research dissuaded her from applying for federal funding , when it was initially offered last year. . ~ ' Russi• looks to raise sub LONGVIEW.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The debate over stem cells is shifting to the halls of Congress, but the action is moving to the nation's laboratories as scientists begin the painstaking work of translating promise into actual treatments. President Bush's decision to allow limited federal funding for the research offered both comfort and angst to advocates on both sides of the debate. And it complicated the .politics all around. Bush may have satisfied just enough people just enough to stave off congressional action. "The president probably bought himself some time;' said Thomas Mann at the Brookings Institution. "Pressure will build · again, but it will take some time." At issue is research involving days-old human embryos. each one smaller than the period at the end of this sentence, left over from fertility treatments. Inside sit stem cells that can develop into any type of tissue. Scientists say these cells could help cure '• many diseases, but in order to get them out, the .embryo must be destroyed. For some who believe life begins at conception, this amounts to taking one life to try and save another. Trying to thread an ethical needle, Bush said Thursday that he would allow federal funding for research on stem cell lines, but only those that have already been created. Each embryo can yield one stem cell line, which can continue replicating indefinitely. At the Nation:illnstitutes of Health on Friday, researchers were beginning to cat- Unattended childnn drown · Suspect leads police to body alogue th e existing stem cell lines, which officials now estimate at 60 worldwide. Around the country, scientists were beginning to hone their ideas for grant applications, which were expected to be submitr ted and awarded by early next year. Dr. Harold Varmus, who led the NIH under President Clinton, predicted hun~ dreds of researche~ would get into the field, even under limitedfunding. Ultirnately, he predicted that the federal government would spend tens to hundreds of millions of dollars per year in this field; . Dr. Catherine Verfaillie, who directs the University of Minnesota Stem Cell Institute, said the political rurmoil surrounding this research dissuaded her from applying for federal funding , when it was initially offered last year. . ~ ' Russi• looks to raise sub LONGVIEW.

WESTMINSTER, Md (AP) :-The Baltimore Ravens have launched an extensive search to find a replacement for Jamal Lewis, one of the few playe" the Super Bowl champions simply could not afford to lose. · Lewis, who ran for 1,364 y.mls a rookie last season, is out :for the year with a knee injury. A seemingly innocent tackle by Kelly Gregg during Wednesday's practice left Lewis with a torn -anterior cruciate ligament and a ·sprained medial collateral liga:ment in his left knee. : Lewis must rehabilitate the sprained ligament before surgery can be performed on the ACL. "The plan is in place to get :Jamal ready for 2002:• Ravens :senior vice president of football ·operations Ozzie Newsome said Thunday. With Lewis gone, the stunned defending champions have no _joption but to get someone else :to carry the ball. : "We're looking (or a guy to help us this year and for the future," Newsome ;aid "We're not just looking for a Band-Aid ·we're looking for a productive .guy who can be with us three or .four. yea"."

"We have a little and reading is that our football season should be canceled, and we're no longer considered to be Super Bowl contenders. We'll let the season decide that." Billick• echoed the sentiment, saying the players were more concerned about Lewis than the possible ra11Ufications his absence could have on their bid to repeat as champions. "There's a great deal of disappointment, buf the disappointment is for Jamal;' Billick said. "There's a measure of disappointment in how it could impact the team, but that's very limited.· They understand that · we can still control our destiny." With Grbac running the show and the defense eager to duplicate last year's dominating performance, Billick remains optimistic the Ravens can overcome the loss of Lewis and right offensive tackle Leon Searcy, who is out 10-12 weeks after tearing the triceps tendon in his · arm last week. "We feel like we've added assets to this team that will allow us to be a balanced offense. Losing Jamal Lewis should not change that balance we're trying to achieve to augment what we think is one of the best defenses in football," Billick said. There was no way to put a positive spin on the loss of a talented young running back who carried the offense last year, but the Ravens won't feel sorry for themselves. "It's like a cold bucket of water or a slap in the face," Billick said. "Not to be too philosophical here, bu~ Shakespeare said, 'Sweet are the uses of adversity.' " ...

"I think the routine that they have is OK," she said. But she added that it . wouldn't inconvenience teams to "change praciice times to maybe earlier in the morning or late at night." The Vikings maintain no one was to blame for the death of Stringer, a 27year-old Pro Bowl right tackle who grew up in Warren, Ohio, and played for Ohio State. He died on the second day of training camp in stifling, humidity and temperatures in the 90s. Results of an autopsy confirm the lineman died of multiple organ failure due to heatstroke, accord~ ing to his agent, James Gould.

WESTMINSTER, Md (AP) :-The Baltimore Ravens have launched an extensive search to find a replacement for Jamal Lewis, one of the few playe" the Super Bowl champions simply could not afford to lose. · Lewis, who ran for 1,364 y.mls a rookie last season, is out :for the year with a knee injury. A seemingly innocent tackle by Kelly Gregg during Wednesday's practice left Lewis with a torn -anterior cruciate ligament and a ·sprained medial collateral liga:ment in his left knee. : Lewis must rehabilitate the sprained ligament before surgery can be performed on the ACL. "The plan is in place to get :Jamal ready for 2002:• Ravens :senior vice president of football ·operations Ozzie Newsome said Thunday. With Lewis gone, the stunned defending champions have no _joption but to get someone else :to carry the ball. : "We're looking (or a guy to help us this year and for the future," Newsome ;aid "We're not just looking for a Band-Aid ·we're looking for a productive .guy who can be with us three or .four. yea"."

Billick• echoed the sentiment, saying the players were more concerned about Lewis than the possible ra11Ufications his absence could have on their bid to repeat as champions. "There's a great deal of disappointment, buf the disappointment is for Jamal;' Billick said. "There's a measure of disappointment in how it could impact the team, but that's very limited.· They understand that · we can still control our destiny." With Grbac running the show and the defense eager to duplicate last year's dominating performance, Billick remains optimistic the Ravens can overcome the loss of Lewis and right offensive tackle Leon Searcy, who is out 10-12 weeks after tearing the triceps tendon in his · arm last week. "We feel like we've added assets to this team that will allow us to be a balanced offense. Losing Jamal Lewis should not change that balance we're trying to achieve to augment what we think is one of the best defenses in football," Billick said. There was no way to put a positive spin on the loss of a talented young running back who carried the offense last year, but the Ravens won't feel sorry for themselves. "It's like a cold bucket of water or a slap in the face," Billick said. "Not to be too philosophical here, bu~ Shakespeare said, 'Sweet are the uses of adversity.' " ...

"I think the routine that they have is OK," she said. But she added that it . wouldn't inconvenience teams to "change praciice times to maybe earlier in the morning or late at night." The Vikings maintain no one was to blame for the death of Stringer, a 27year-old Pro Bowl right tackle who grew up in Warren, Ohio, and played for Ohio State. He died on the second day of training camp in stifling, humidity and temperatures in the 90s. Results of an autopsy confirm the lineman died of multiple organ failure due to heatstroke, accord~ ing to his agent, James Gould.

KaWi Glen Re.minded that his two-stroke victory over Duval at Augusta National was only four months ago, Woods quipped, "'That was bac k when I was tn · my pnme. . " H e appem to b'e prune · d fcor the PGA. Woods bailed out of the. Buick Open to get ready for the final major of the year, the championship where he has squeezed out narrow victories the past two years. In 1999, he ovetcame a late challenge from Sergio Garcia to win by-one stroke at Medinah. Last year, he became the fi~t back-to-back champion since the PGA went to stroke play in 1958, ma!Png birdies on the last two holes to force a three-hole playoff a~st unheralded Bob May. . ' ' More exclusive company awaits Woo.ds should he make it three in a row. •No one has ever won two majors in one year in the same state. Aq~ another major would make Woods only the seventh player to have at least two multiple-major seasons. But now that some of his mystique has worn off, now that there is evidence Woods won't win every major, Duval & Co. seem up to the challenge. The PGA Championship features the strongest field of .all the majo~. with 97 out of the top 100 from the world ranking. Leading the way is Duval, buoyed by his three-stroke victory at the British Open with rounds of 65-67 on the weekend. "He's been such a good player for such a long time to not have won one;' two-time U.S. Open champion Ernie Els said. "The way he did it was awesome. So, who knows what he can do from here?" Duval has a history of winning in bunches. He was a runner-up seven times on the PGA Tour before he won his fi~t tournament and "I don't have a feeling of relief from what happened," Duval said. "I have a feeling of accomplishment." He has some experience at Atlanta Athletic Club as a fourtime All-American at Georgia Tech. Still, the course figures to be a new experience for just about everyone. Only nine players in the 150-man field played it during the 1981 PGA. The par-70 cou~e measures · 7,213 yards and features the longest closing hole in PGA Championship history. The 18th is 490 yards to a green guarded by bunkers on the left and by v;ater in front and to the right. Mickelson has had success in Atlanta two prestigious junior vi~tories, his Tour Championship victory over Woods at East Lake and a playoff victory over Gary Nicklaus last year at the BeUSouth Classic. Still, the pressure is mounting. With Duval having won his major and Colin Montgomerie in the twilight of his career, the· focus clearly shifts to the 31year-old Mickelson as the best to have never won a major. "Phil is still young and has plenty of time to win a major and become a competitive force;• Jack Nicklaus said. As Woods · strolled into the record books by sweeping the four majo~, Nicklaus lamented there w.is no one to challenge him. Nicklaus said he at least had guys with major championship experience ready to pounce should he falter, whether it was Arnold Palmer, Gary Player, Lee Trevino or Tom Watson. run well ." Although he got the outside of the front row, Rudd felt he could have done better. "You're not happy when you run slower than you ·did in practice, and we did," Rudd said. "I made a feW mental erro~. but at the time I didn't realize it." WhileJarrett got his third pole of th~ season, 13th of his career ;md 6~t on any discipline other than a superspeedway, Gordon was not very good in pursl,lit of his sixth top start of the year. Even though he leads in poles, he isn't obsessed with winning them. So, when after he went just 122.498, Gordon took the lap in stride. "We've got some good guys in fuint of us," he said. "But I'm not too worried." In all he had a better day than defending race champion Steve Park. He couldn't truce a lap because of a brake problem, and will start 37th. Gordon's teammate,Jerry Nadeau, was a surprise as the third qualifier. He went 122.235 in his Chevrolet, and will start inside Robby Gordon. Subbing for the injured Mike Skinner, Gordon got around at 122.218. Starting fifth will be the Ford of Rusry Wallace, whose lap at 122.042 was one of 13 faster than his two-year-old track reeord of 121.234.

He .went to classes during the ·day, did school work at night and focused on racing on the weekends. Although he never did homework at the track, he sometimes thought about an upcoming exam while·sitting in his car and spent plenty of ·class time daydreaming about his next race. As his career began to truce off, Newman got busier and busier. During one semester, he was gone from Purdue four of the first five weeks. "I've never held .two jobs at once, but that was as close to it as 1 think you can get;' he said. "Having school and racing overlap in a seven-day week made it very difficult." He often considered quitting school, but a talk with threetime Winston Cup champion Jeff Gordon convinced Newman he needed to continue his education. Gordon told Newman that if he could do it over, he would have gone to college. "Every day there is something , I dn that I could use a college education;· Gordon said. "He's in a unique situation in that his race career is going well and he's able to get that education. I chose not to do that because I was afraid that my career would suffer, so I went with the momentum that I had from the racing side ofit. · "But I certainly wish I could have done both and I'm proud of him for sticking with it:' Even after Gordon's pep talk, Newman had one more obstade. After being hired by Roger Peruke, he left school a few hours short of graduation to move to North Carolina. Some things roll over more easily than others.

" H e appem to b'e prune · d fcor the PGA. Woods bailed out of the. Buick Open to get ready for the final major of the year, the championship where he has squeezed out narrow victories the past two years. In 1999, he ovetcame a late challenge from Sergio Garcia to win by-one stroke at Medinah. Last year, he became the fi~t back-to-back champion since the PGA went to stroke play in 1958, ma!Png birdies on the last two holes to force a three-hole playoff a~st unheralded Bob May. . ' ' More exclusive company awaits Woo.ds should he make it three in a row. •No one has ever won two majors in one year in the same state. Aq~ another major would make Woods only the seventh player to have at least two multiple-major seasons. But now that some of his mystique has worn off, now that there is evidence Woods won't win every major, Duval & Co. seem up to the challenge. The PGA Championship features the strongest field of .all the majo~. with 97 out of the top 100 from the world ranking. Leading the way is Duval, buoyed by his three-stroke victory at the British Open with rounds of 65-67 on the weekend. "He's been such a good player for such a long time to not have won one;' two-time U.S. Open champion Ernie Els said. "The way he did it was awesome. So, who knows what he can do from here?" Duval has a history of winning in bunches. He was a runner-up seven times on the PGA Tour before he won his fi~t tournament and "I don't have a feeling of relief from what happened," Duval said. "I have a feeling of accomplishment." He has some experience at Atlanta Athletic Club as a fourtime All-American at Georgia Tech. Still, the course figures to be a new experience for just about everyone. Only nine players in the 150-man field played it during the 1981 PGA. The par-70 cou~e measures · 7,213 yards and features the longest closing hole in PGA Championship history. The 18th is 490 yards to a green guarded by bunkers on the left and by v;ater in front and to the right. Mickelson has had success in Atlanta two prestigious junior vi~tories, his Tour Championship victory over Woods at East Lake and a playoff victory over Gary Nicklaus last year at the BeUSouth Classic. Still, the pressure is mounting. With Duval having won his major and Colin Montgomerie in the twilight of his career, the· focus clearly shifts to the 31year-old Mickelson as the best to have never won a major. "Phil is still young and has plenty of time to win a major and become a competitive force;• Jack Nicklaus said. As Woods · strolled into the record books by sweeping the four majo~, Nicklaus lamented there w.is no one to challenge him. Nicklaus said he at least had guys with major championship experience ready to pounce should he falter, whether it was Arnold Palmer, Gary Player, Lee Trevino or Tom Watson. run well ." Although he got the outside of the front row, Rudd felt he could have done better. "You're not happy when you run slower than you ·did in practice, and we did," Rudd said. "I made a feW mental erro~. but at the time I didn't realize it." WhileJarrett got his third pole of th~ season, 13th of his career ;md 6~t on any discipline other than a superspeedway, Gordon was not very good in pursl,lit of his sixth top start of the year. Even though he leads in poles, he isn't obsessed with winning them. So, when after he went just 122.498, Gordon took the lap in stride. "We've got some good guys in fuint of us," he said. "But I'm not too worried." In all he had a better day than defending race champion Steve Park. He couldn't truce a lap because of a brake problem, and will start 37th. Gordon's teammate,Jerry Nadeau, was a surprise as the third qualifier. He went 122.235 in his Chevrolet, and will start inside Robby Gordon. Subbing for the injured Mike Skinner, Gordon got around at 122.218. Starting fifth will be the Ford of Rusry Wallace, whose lap at 122.042 was one of 13 faster than his two-year-old track reeord of 121.234.

He .went to classes during the ·day, did school work at night and focused on racing on the weekends. Although he never did homework at the track, he sometimes thought about an upcoming exam while·sitting in his car and spent plenty of ·class time daydreaming about his next race. As his career began to truce off, Newman got busier and busier. During one semester, he was gone from Purdue four of the first five weeks. "I've never held .two jobs at once, but that was as close to it as 1 think you can get;' he said. "Having school and racing overlap in a seven-day week made it very difficult." He often considered quitting school, but a talk with threetime Winston Cup champion Jeff Gordon convinced Newman he needed to continue his education. Gordon told Newman that if he could do it over, he would have gone to college. "Every day there is something , I dn that I could use a college education;· Gordon said. "He's in a unique situation in that his race career is going well and he's able to get that education. I chose not to do that because I was afraid that my career would suffer, so I went with the momentum that I had from the racing side ofit. · "But I certainly wish I could have done both and I'm proud of him for sticking with it:' Even after Gordon's pep talk, Newman had one more obstade. After being hired by Roger Peruke, he left school a few hours short of graduation to move to North Carolina. Some things roll over more easily than others.

NATIONAL BASKETBALL ASSOCIATION Knicks send Rice to Houston in three-team trade with Mavs.. · NEW YORK (AP) For the third time in 29 months, Glen Rice -has been traded. This time, he's going to.a place where he won't be a second fidclle, a third option or a sixth man. The Houston Rockets acquired the three-time All- Star from the New York Knicks on Friday in a threeteam trade. Howard Eisley goes from Dallas to New York, Shandon Anderson goes from the Rockets to the Knicks and Muggsy Bogues was sent from New York to Dallas. The · Mavericks, who seemingly made the trade in order to facilitate a future deal for Tim Hardaway, also sent the rights to second-round draft pick Kyle Hall to Houston. While the Knicks created a whole new layer of glut in their backcourt, the Rockets took a gamble on a player whose production has dropped steadily and dramatically in the three seasons since he was traded from the Charlotte Hornets. A sharpshooter who averaged 26.8 points as recently :is 1996-97, Rice's average dropped to 12.0 last season as he was forced into a reserve role with New York. Rice, wlio had spent two unhappy seasons in Los Angeles as the third option behind Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant, was the primary player the Knicks received in return when they dealt Patrick Ewing last summer. The Knicks signed him to a four-year contract, and the Rockets are liable for the remaining $28.5 miUion Rice will earn through the 2003-04 season. A nagging foot injury kept Rice from practicing for long periods of time last season. He played in 75 games, starting 25. · "Glen gets to go to a place where his minutes will be . up and he can start, and with us getting Shandon we get some versatility,'' Knicks coach JeffVan Gmidy said. The acquisition of Anderson and Eisley means that the Knicks, who already had a logjam at the shooting guard and small forward positions; have a roster heavy on point guards. Eisley, who mostly played shooting guard for the Mavericks last season but eventuaUy lost his starting job, has primarily been a point guard during his seven-year NBA career. .~CAL FLATTS- Joe Don Rooney, ieft, Jay DeMarcus and Gary LeVox of the country music group Rascal Aatts pose for thiS publicity photo.

DEAR - ABBV: I could have been one of those outcast teens who shoot classmates when I was younger. Like them, I felt that I did not belong· within the confines of my school. The torment started in the eighth g_rade and continued through my ·senior year of high school. I was taunted by nearly everyone in class, made fun of because I was unpopular, and made to feel small and insignificant. I remember walking up . the sidewalk to sc hool, palms sweating, stomach in knots, knowing once again I faced another day trying to make myself as invisible as possible. It rarely worked. My tormentors always managed to use me as their whipping boy. There were times I would Jay my head on my desk, tears streaming down my face, the other kids laughing and making jokes about me. Not once dill , a ~e~her or • principal come to my aid. h . · was as if my feelings were · unimport;~_nt, __()!'_ they_ ::7'7"'-o--~~ mind-set that "kids kids." I struggled through · school and kept my grades as high as possible under the circumstances I faced daily. So why did I not take vengeance on my classmates with · the nearest weapon? The answer is . simple: My parents were always there for me. They were aware of my problems at school. Every day they listened to my fears and concerns, and reassured me that I was a special person and the taunts meant nothing with regard to who I really was. They cried with me, held me and listened to every word I said. They encouraged me to become my own person and.to never let anyone tell me who I was or was not. I'm saddened when I hear about young outcasts who can't cope being driven over the edge. These lives are cut short because nobody intervened when they saw what was happening. I wish I could tell them how important they are and what possibilities life has in store for them . I know what that would mean to them because I know what it meant to me. Every day I thank God for giving me such wonderful parents. They understood ·and didn't ignore the fact that their son was in pain. It took years of struggle to get past those horrible expe 7 riences in school, but I final::· ly accomplished it. Today • am a successful, well-adjust• ed human being. My only regret is that I have no fond memories of high school. Abby; until we recognize the true impact of teasing in our schools, this situation · will continue to occur. Please ask your readers parents, teachers and even students - to be sensitive to that young person who needs support through troubling times. They might save someone's life - perhaps even their own.

NATIONAL BASKETBALL ASSOCIATION Knicks send Rice to Houston in three-team trade with Mavs.. · NEW YORK (AP) For the third time in 29 months, Glen Rice -has been traded. This time, he's going to.a place where he won't be a second fidclle, a third option or a sixth man. The Houston Rockets acquired the three-time All- Star from the New York Knicks on Friday in a threeteam trade. Howard Eisley goes from Dallas to New York, Shandon Anderson goes from the Rockets to the Knicks and Muggsy Bogues was sent from New York to Dallas. The · Mavericks, who seemingly made the trade in order to facilitate a future deal for Tim Hardaway, also sent the rights to second-round draft pick Kyle Hall to Houston. While the Knicks created a whole new layer of glut in their backcourt, the Rockets took a gamble on a player whose production has dropped steadily and dramatically in the three seasons since he was traded from the Charlotte Hornets. A sharpshooter who averaged 26.8 points as recently :is 1996-97, Rice's average dropped to 12.0 last season as he was forced into a reserve role with New York. Rice, wlio had spent two unhappy seasons in Los Angeles as the third option behind Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant, was the primary player the Knicks received in return when they dealt Patrick Ewing last summer. The Knicks signed him to a four-year contract, and the Rockets are liable for the remaining $28.5 miUion Rice will earn through the 2003-04 season. A nagging foot injury kept Rice from practicing for long periods of time last season. He played in 75 games, starting 25. · "Glen gets to go to a place where his minutes will be . up and he can start, and with us getting Shandon we get some versatility,'' Knicks coach JeffVan Gmidy said. The acquisition of Anderson and Eisley means that the Knicks, who already had a logjam at the shooting guard and small forward positions; have a roster heavy on point guards. Eisley, who mostly played shooting guard for the Mavericks last season but eventuaUy lost his starting job, has primarily been a point guard during his seven-year NBA career. .~CAL FLATTS- Joe Don Rooney, ieft, Jay DeMarcus and Gary LeVox of the country music group Rascal Aatts pose for thiS publicity photo.

Fortunately, the mattock had killed the snake. He went down, whereupon the second man went up. He found a 10foot snake this time.

The next week, some men working on the fC\ads nearby told of an enormous snake weighing maybe 40 pounds. Also that week, the young Sunday School scholar received a visit from an older woman in the community who told how 20 years prior, . she had come upon an enormous snake that spooked the horses. That older woman was told by others in the community that they had seen such a snake 20 years · prior to that. So the story of an ancient, almost prehistoric snake was spread through the area. One man told about walking through the woods and accitlentally stepping on a monster snake's tail.

He said that when the fair closed in 1975, Russell and Pearl Little decided not to return the next year and sug- · gested to the fair board that "their spot" be given to the boosters, who were eager to have a good fund-raising proje'ct. The next spring, work was started on the booth, using primarily volunteer labor and donated materials. Pat remembers several donors - Midwest Steel, which furnished metal supports; Forest Run Block, windows, doors and concrete blocks; David Bumgardner, lumber; and Wendell · Grate, furnishings for the kitchen: "It was a combined effort of everyone starting a task and seeing it become a reality," said Pat. The booth was dedicated and opened on Aug. 13, .1976,just 25 years ago tomorrow.

Interesting, in Ethiopia, they don't eat seafood, but do eat insects. While not all insects are edible, there are at least some that certain· cultures of the world find not only nutritious, but tasty as well. In fact, those in academic circles call edible insects "microlivestock" (yes, really) .

Many of the world's populations have no problem with eating insects. In Colombia, · ants are grounaup and used as a spread on breads. Fried grasshoppers are enjoyed in Mexico. The giant waterbug is roasted and eaten whole in Asia. In the Philippines, June beetles, locusts and dragonfly larvae . are among the insects that are fried, broiled or sauteed with vegetables. However not all insects are digestive-s~m friendly. Some, in fact, are toxic. Any adventurous folks who want to begin expanding their culinary fare should .do some research and choose only species that entomologists say are safe. Iowa ~tate University's entomology club actually hosts a website with insect recipes, with everything from Banana Worm Bread to Corn Borer Cornbread Muffins ..See it at http:/ /WWW.ent.iastate.edu/ misc/insectsasfood. html.

James Sands way to Sunday School at Victory Baptist Church spotted on the road what she thought · was a log. She hopped around it. But when she looked back, the log had moved a little bit. After Sunday School, she passed by the same spot and the Jog was nowhere to be found. She thought this odd since only her family ever used this particular road. · The young girl questioned some . family members, but they were without an explanation. The next week, some men working on the fC\ads nearby told of an enormous snake weighing maybe 40 pounds. Also that week, the young Sunday School scholar received a visit from an older woman in the community who told how 20 years prior, . she had come upon an enormous snake that spooked the horses. That older woman was told by others in the community that they had seen such a snake 20 years · prior to that. So the story of an ancient, almost prehistoric snake was spread through the area. One man told about walking through the woods and accitlentally stepping on a monster snake's tail. The snake threw itself through the air like a whip and stuck itsfangs in the man's top vest pocket. . The man kept his chewing tobacco there. With the snake's tail under the man's Ha MATINEES WED· SUN 1:0063:20 PLANET OF THE APES (PG13) 7:00& 1:30 MATINEES WED- SUN I :DO I 3:30 AMERICA'S SWEETHEARTS (PQ13) . 7:15.8:15 MATINEES WED-SUN 1:15& 3:15 SPY KIDS RUSH HOURl SCARY MOVIE l JURASSIC PARK 3 (PQ13) 7:00 & 1:00 DAILY MATINEES WED ·SUN 1:00 & 3:00 All AGES , All TIMES $4.00 I APPLE GROVE - Three for One will sing at Millstone Churc!'l. 7 p.m. .

While there are plenty of spaces in lots of places, geuing motorists directed into them is not an easy task. So let's all be patient with the new people doing the parking, it's their first year on the job. ••• Pat Wood recalled for us last week that it will be 25 years tomorrow since the Meigs Marauc!er Band Boosters began operating a refreshment booth at the Meigs County fair. He said that when the fair closed in 1975, Russell and Pearl Little decided not to return the next year and sug- · gested to the fair board that "their spot" be given to the boosters, who were eager to have a good fund-raising proje'ct. The next spring, work was started on the booth, using primarily volunteer labor and donated materials. Pat remembers several donors - Midwest Steel, which furnished metal supports; Forest Run Block, windows, doors and concrete blocks; David Bumgardner, lumber; and Wendell · Grate, furnishings for the kitchen: "It was a combined effort of everyone starting a task and seeing it become a reality," said Pat. The booth was dedicated and opened on Aug. 13, .1976,just 25 years ago tomorrow. So to the boosters who have been so dedicated to raising money for uniforms, instruments, music and trips, a tip of the hat. Hang in there. ••• See ya at the fair!

Although they have played m far fewer theaters than "American Pie 2," some of these bolder films have found big audiences in narrow release, running counter to the notion that low-brow humor wins the day in teen flicks.

The sexy noir thriller, set during a steamy Florida summer, will make the heat wave that has blan)<eted much of the country this week seem positively arctic by comparison.

The sexy noir thriller, set during a steamy Florida summer, will make the heat wave that has blan)<eted much of the country this week seem positively arctic by comparison.
