but we don't want our good dog&gt; affected
because of it," said Norma Woolf of Cincinnat1.
a member of the Oh1o Valley Dog Owners .
Association.
Under the bill signed last month by Gov.
Bob Taft. debarking a dog known to be vic1ous.

or owning a vicious debarked dog is a fourthdegree felony. It carries a penalty of six to 18
months in jail and a S5,()()() fine.
A debarked vicious dog must be put to
death by a li censed veterinarian, the county
dog warden or the cuunty humane society
within 90 days . ·
State Rep. Lynn Olman, R-Maumee, sponsored the anginal version of the bill.
"It's a good safety measure," he said, adding
that county dog wardens wiU investigate only if
they receive a complaint.
Olman said increastng numbers of debarked
dogs are being used for dog fighting in the
Toledo and Cleveland areas. Silencing the dog&gt;
helps h1de the ill ega~ activity.

Woolf said her organizarion tried unsu ccessfully to have wording in the bill changed to
exempt dogs .that never had' been a problem
and to emphasize that only dog; us•·d in criminal activity could not b e debarked.
"Debarking is a tool that people use to keep
their dogs," Woolf said: " In many cases, people
get complaints from their neighbors about
their dog barking, and this is somethin g people
can do to prevent having io get nd of thei r
dog."
.
Jack Advent, executive directo r of the Ohio
Veterinary Medical Association, has said
debarking is considered a last resort for barking
dogs. He said ntost veterinari:1ns recom mend

prove Ius service record.
Robert Jumper, 51 , has been accused of falsely claiming he served in

C INCINNATI (AP) - Public school officials are constdenng a pbn
to lower the nUnimun1 grad~s needed for students to pby sports o r participate in extracurricular activities. ·
The plan would increase funding and staff superviSion for afterschool activities, they said. It was presented to the school board Wednesday by Superintendent Steven Adamowski and Athletics Director Dave
Dierker.
"It seems we haw an at-nsk population that can benefit from the
supervision and activities that go along with these," Dierker sa1o
Officials said th~ district's digibility requirements exceed smte m.inilllUfllS. Cincinnati students an~ required to pass all classes and maintain
at least a C average:. The state only . n::quirc:s students w pass fiw courses that count toward graduation and keep a D average.
Officials propose se ttmg aside the eqUivalent o( 1 percent of the district's budget, or $3.7 million, for extracurricular pmgrams.Tius would
be accomplished by a pub~c-private partnership that would provide
$500,000 from the community and S3.2 million fnom the ge neral budget.
.. We want to deternune how we can use athletic and extracurricular
programs as a tool to help students succeed and graduate," Adamowski
said.
Some jumor high studen(S don't receive letter grades, so the district
in August dropped the 2.0 minimum but retained the requirement that
srudents pass ill classes, in effect, accepting a 1.0 or " D" average. That
move was axed when critics said the district was lowering standards .

suspendecl

NEWARK {AP) -The city's economic development director has
been given a seven-day unpaid suspension related to a contract given
to a paint store managed bt her husband.
Mayor Frank S.tare suspended Valerie Hans one week after the city
law director said she had a conflict of interest involving the unbid contract.
The store is in the Columbus suburb of Gahanna. Three Newark
paint stores were upset because they weren't invited to bid o n the
$19,000 contract to provide paint for 42 downtown buildings.
City Auditor Stephen Johnson canceled the order after S1,600 in
paint had been delivered .
City rub do not require bids fur purcha.ses of less than $20,000.
Hans is a board member of the Newark Alliance, a downtown r;,vitalizatJon group involved in the painting project.
" I have detwnined that Mrs. Hans' actions were inadvertent and
not-knowing." Stare said Wednesday. "Her actions were not intention -

Groups upset with new deba
COLUMBUS {AP) Some Ohio pet
owners are upset by a new state law requiring
owners of vicious dog; that are surgically
silenced to have the animals put to death .
The law was initiated by Toledo-area officials to stop people from removing the dog;'
vocal cords to protect drug houses. Its opponents say the law is unfa ir to other dog owners.
"They do have a problem with dog fighting
and dog; being used to protect drug houses ,
but we don't want our good dog&gt; affected
because of it," said Norma Woolf of Cincinnat1.
a member of the Oh1o Valley Dog Owners .
Association.
Under the bill signed last month by Gov.
Bob Taft. debarking a dog known to be vic1ous.

or owning a vicious debarked dog is a fourthdegree felony. It carries a penalty of six to 18
months in jail and a S5,()()() fine.
A debarked vicious dog must be put to
death by a li censed veterinarian, the county
dog warden or the cuunty humane society
within 90 days . ·
State Rep. Lynn Olman, R-Maumee, sponsored the anginal version of the bill.
"It's a good safety measure," he said, adding
that county dog wardens wiU investigate only if
they receive a complaint.
Olman said increastng numbers of debarked
dogs are being used for dog fighting in the
Toledo and Cleveland areas. Silencing the dog&gt;
helps h1de the ill ega~ activity.

Woolf said her organizarion tried unsu ccessfully to have wording in the bill changed to
exempt dogs .that never had' been a problem
and to emphasize that only dog; us•·d in criminal activity could not b e debarked.
"Debarking is a tool that people use to keep
their dogs," Woolf said: " In many cases, people
get complaints from their neighbors about
their dog barking, and this is somethin g people
can do to prevent having io get nd of thei r
dog."
.
Jack Advent, executive directo r of the Ohio
Veterinary Medical Association, has said
debarking is considered a last resort for barking
dogs. He said ntost veterinari:1ns recom mend
behavio~ training and other treatmen t ti rst.
&gt;

'

'' How~ver, J poor J~udgment error on her part did occ ur and is un.lcceptable and will not be tokrated by this Jdm.inistration."
Hans has 1mint1ined that she did nothing wrong and that neither she
nor her husband benefited financially from the contract.
The suspension will begtn Sunday.

to lower the nUnimun1 grad~s needed for students to pby sports o r participate in extracurricular activities. ·
The plan would increase funding and staff superviSion for afterschool activities, they said. It was presented to the school board Wednesday by Superintendent Steven Adamowski and Athletics Director Dave
Dierker.
"It seems we haw an at-nsk population that can benefit from the
supervision and activities that go along with these," Dierker sa1o
Officials said th~ district's digibility requirements exceed smte m.inilllUfllS. Cincinnati students an~ required to pass all classes and maintain
at least a C average:. The state only . n::quirc:s students w pass fiw courses that count toward graduation and keep a D average.
Officials propose se ttmg aside the eqUivalent o( 1 percent of the district's budget, or $3.7 million, for extracurricular pmgrams.Tius would
be accomplished by a pub~c-private partnership that would provide
$500,000 from the community and S3.2 million fnom the ge neral budget.
.. We want to deternune how we can use athletic and extracurricular
programs as a tool to help students succeed and graduate," Adamowski
said.
Some jumor high studen(S don't receive letter grades, so the district
in August dropped the 2.0 minimum but retained the requirement that
srudents pass ill classes, in effect, accepting a 1.0 or " D" average. That
move was axed when critics said the district was lowering standards .

SOCIETY NEWS

Poor driving habits are
no laughzng matter
Highway safe ty is everyo ne 's busin e&lt;&gt;, and little tlun g,; mean a
lot.
Little things like turn signals save lives every day, but so many o f
us either don 't use them regularly o r, wo rse, don't use th e m at all.
We're reminded o f an old co m edy routine on " blinkers." It goes
something like this:
A good driver was taking his friend , who was the epitomo of a
poor driver, to the doctor. As th e car pull ed up to a stoplight , the
good driver engaged his turn signal. Puzzled, the po o r driver
looked around th e car's interior for a few minutes and th en turn ed
to his buddy and .d eadpanned . " Wh at's that clicking sound ?"
That "clicking sound," of course, is yo ur turn signal - a noise
that can savt: your livt:s. not to m entio n save yo u points on your
license and highe r insuran ce pre miums.
·
Anoth er easy w ay to save lives and he ad ac hes is simply to obey
traffic sig11als . We all know green meam " go," but u111ike a11other
old joke, yellow doesn 't mean " g o fa st er." And by no means do es
red mean "flo or It ."
Red m eans stop - period . Too many tri -co unty m ot o rists
make a dang erous habit of runnin g red li ghts.
Let's get serious about hi ghway safety in th e tri-county region .
Causing senseless ac cidents and d eath s is n ever a laughing m atter.
We do n 't have the luxury of having a law enfo rcement agent on
every corner to patrol motorists. Most places don't, yet they manage to have \ower accident rates and less "'road ragen than our
regwn .
Why?
It's probably because they patrol th eir own drivi11g habits better
than we do.
Driving a car comes with serio us responsibilities. For •tarters,
motorists have an obligation to u se th e many sund ~rd safety features such as turn signals that com e with their vehicl es. Most
importantly, motorists are required - read that word again , folks:
required - to follow the rules o f the road.
Let 's police o ur motoring mani a and m ake our roads a safe r
place to drive.
· Please use your turn signals and sto p o n re d , folk s. We value your
readership, and w e want to have yo u aro und fo r years to com e.

Democrats making return to class waifare
When th e impresarios of the Democrati c
conven tio n in Los Angeles finally unveiled
th eir handi wo rk, it h ad at least the merit of
simpli city. Monday w as C linton Night. Tue sday w as Kenn edy N ight. Wedne sday was
Lieberm an Night. And Thursday was G o re
Night.
First up on M o nday was Hillary C linton ,
wh o perhaps inadvertently nudg ed
her hu sband right out of primctime. Her
speec h revea led what many had suspected all
alon g: Hillary is no publi c spea ker. It c on sisted o f a laundry list of proposals believed
to be attractive to the New York elec torate,
d elivered in the loud , arm - waving singsong
o f someo n e accustomed to layin g down . th e
law. Mrs. C linton had b etter stick to answering softball questions from her stooges in the
N ew York medi a, o f whom th ere are plenty.
H er hu sb and was far better. The televisio n
shot of him walking alone down a corrido r
to the arena was Impressive, although it was
ruined for me when the first corridor was
fclk&gt;wed by a second, and that by a third,
and that by a fourth. (By the n all I could
think o f w as th e movie titl e " Dead Man
Walkin g.") But th e spe ec h itself was vintage
C lint o n : a glow in g, hour- long orgy of selfco ngratul at io n, ddivered w ith hi s tradem ark

Ameri ca n people who ge nuin ely like and
admire Bill C linto n mu st have g otten go o se
bumps .
Tu es d ay evening belonged to va ri o us
m emb ers o f th e Kennedy cl an, led by Un cle
Ted , fo r wh ose descr ipti o n the verb "bellow" is r etain ed in modern English. It 's a
good questi o n JUSt how mesmeri zed the
American people still are by what Washin gton atto rn ey Jim Guirard Jr. h as called "Scamal o t," but , as in t he case of C linto n, worship ers at th e shrin e g ot thei r mo ney's

SOCIETY NEWS

Poor driving habits are
no laughzng matter
Highway safe ty is everyo ne 's busin e&lt;&gt;, and little tlun g,; mean a
lot.
Little things like turn signals save lives every day, but so many o f
us either don 't use them regularly o r, wo rse, don't use th e m at all.
We're reminded o f an old co m edy routine on " blinkers." It goes
something like this:
A good driver was taking his friend , who was the epitomo of a
poor driver, to the doctor. As th e car pull ed up to a stoplight , the
good driver engaged his turn signal. Puzzled, the po o r driver
looked around th e car's interior for a few minutes and th en turn ed
to his buddy and .d eadpanned . " Wh at's that clicking sound ?"
That "clicking sound," of course, is yo ur turn signal - a noise
that can savt: your livt:s. not to m entio n save yo u points on your
license and highe r insuran ce pre miums.
·
Anoth er easy w ay to save lives and he ad ac hes is simply to obey
traffic sig11als . We all know green meam " go," but u111ike a11other
old joke, yellow doesn 't mean " g o fa st er." And by no means do es
red mean "flo or It ."
Red m eans stop - period . Too many tri -co unty m ot o rists
make a dang erous habit of runnin g red li ghts.
Let's get serious about hi ghway safety in th e tri-county region .
Causing senseless ac cidents and d eath s is n ever a laughing m atter.
We do n 't have the luxury of having a law enfo rcement agent on
every corner to patrol motorists. Most places don't, yet they manage to have \ower accident rates and less "'road ragen than our
regwn .
Why?
It's probably because they patrol th eir own drivi11g habits better
than we do.
Driving a car comes with serio us responsibilities. For •tarters,
motorists have an obligation to u se th e many sund ~rd safety features such as turn signals that com e with their vehicl es. Most
importantly, motorists are required - read that word again , folks:
required - to follow the rules o f the road.
Let 's police o ur motoring mani a and m ake our roads a safe r
place to drive.
· Please use your turn signals and sto p o n re d , folk s. We value your
readership, and w e want to have yo u aro und fo r years to com e.

Democrats making return to class waifare
When th e impresarios of the Democrati c
conven tio n in Los Angeles finally unveiled
th eir handi wo rk, it h ad at least the merit of
simpli city. Monday w as C linton Night. Tue sday w as Kenn edy N ight. Wedne sday was
Lieberm an Night. And Thursday was G o re
Night.
First up on M o nday was Hillary C linton ,
wh o perhaps inadvertently nudg ed
her hu sband right out of primctime. Her
speec h revea led what many had suspected all
alon g: Hillary is no publi c spea ker. It c on sisted o f a laundry list of proposals believed
to be attractive to the New York elec torate,
d elivered in the loud , arm - waving singsong
o f someo n e accustomed to layin g down . th e
law. Mrs. C linton had b etter stick to answering softball questions from her stooges in the
N ew York medi a, o f whom th ere are plenty.
H er hu sb and was far better. The televisio n
shot of him walking alone down a corrido r
to the arena was Impressive, although it was
ruined for me when the first corridor was
fclk&gt;wed by a second, and that by a third,
and that by a fourth. (By the n all I could
think o f w as th e movie titl e " Dead Man
Walkin g.") But th e spe ec h itself was vintage
C lint o n : a glow in g, hour- long orgy of selfco ngratul at io n, ddivered w ith hi s tradem ark
c har m and humo r. The 30 percent of t he
Ameri ca n people who ge nuin ely like and
admire Bill C linto n mu st have g otten go o se
bumps .
Tu es d ay evening belonged to va ri o us
m emb ers o f th e Kennedy cl an, led by Un cle
Ted , fo r wh ose descr ipti o n the verb "bellow" is r etain ed in modern English. It 's a
good questi o n JUSt how mesmeri zed the
American people still are by what Washin gton atto rn ey Jim Guirard Jr. h as called "Scamal o t," but , as in t he case of C linto n, worship ers at th e shrin e g ot thei r mo ney's

NATIONAL .B RIEFS
Mom accused of abandoning kids
VIRGINIA BEACH,Va . (AP) - A woman accused of abandoning her three children in a library said she left them there only
because she was stressed out and hoped to be reunited with the
children and their father.
In a television interview from jail, Roszina Mack said she tried to
pl~ce her children in foster care but didn't get any help, despite
numerous calls to several agencies.
"I didn't know what to do," she told WVEC -TV on Wednesday.
"I was confused. I was stressed out .... I can only take so much ."
Mack, 20, left the children at the Virginia Beach Central Library
on Monday, police said. She was. arrested Tuesday night in nearby
Hampton and faces three counts of felony child neglect. She was to
appear in court Thursday for a bond hearing.
"When we arrested her, she didn't even ask about the children.
She didn't care about their ;.,hereabouts, their health. She wasn't
remoneful," police-spokesman Mike Car.ey said. .
The children - 2 1 /2-year-old twin girls, Breanna and Teanna
Trabal, and an 8-month- old boy, Yabriele Trabal - were placed in
foster care.

Bush seeks te gain offensive on tax cuts ~

.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) -Seeking the offensive on tax cuts, George W Bush was returning to the campaign trail Thursday with
renewed criticism of rival AI Gore's tax-cut
proposal.
Bush, the Republican presidential nominee,
was also pushing new funding for historically
black colleges and preparing for a speech on
U.S. relations with Latin American countries.
Earlier in the week, he acknowledged the
need to do a better job explaining his S1.3
trillion proposal in the face of attacks from
Gore, who has offered a smaller, $500 billion
plan.
"He'll underscore how the vice president's
plan carves people out and denies them tax
relief while ~usn'll__l'ian Jilives hell'. to the
people who need it most," said Bush
spokesman Ari Fleischer.

On tax cuts, public opinion polls hav~

Scientists talk animal intelligence
CHICAGO (AP) - Dolphins learning and . imitating sounds
made by other dolphins. Adult monkeys with the ability to distinguish which young monkey made a sound and identify that monkey's mother.
There's a lot of talking and listening going on in the animal kingdom. And for the first time, more than two dozen top scientists who
study everything from apes to parrots and sperm whales to hyenas
are gathering to do something rare: talk and listen to each other.
"The purpose is to bring together people who work on different
animal species who don't talk to each other much," said Frans de
Waal, an Emory University psychology professor and leading clumpanzee researcher who is an o~ganizer of the international conference.
"The problems that sea lions solve are similar to the problems primates solve."
The conference, Animal Social Complexity and Intelligence,
began Wednesday and runs through Saturday. The list of speakers
reads like a who's who of scientists: Hans Kummer, famous for his
work with baboons, and Christophe Boesch, a Swiss researcher who
has been studying chimpanzees in the Ivory Coast's Tai National
Park, for example.
The symposium will also include a keynote address by Jane
Goodall, whose observation of primates at Gombe Stream in Tanzania. since 1960 represents the longest-running animal behavior
project.

UPN to air rap awards show
PASADENA, Calif. (AP) - UPN will broadcast a rap music
awards show next week even though the glittery hip-hop celebration was cut short by a borde-throwing brawl.
Only three performances and a handful of awards were
announced before The Source Hip-Hop Music Awards 2000 was
shut down by fights. Some witnesses said some involved members
of various rap groups, although police could not immediately confirm that.
"This is not a reflection of what hip-hop is really all about," rapper Coolio said. "Hip-hop is really about all the people coming
together."
The show, sponsored by The Source magazine, mingled rap stars
such as Grammy Award-winner Dr. Dre with mainstream celebrities. About 2,500 people were inside Pasadena Civic Auditorium,
including U.S. Rep. Maxine Waters, basketball star Shaquille O'Neal
and boxing promoter Don King.
There were no arrests and no injuries, police said.
UPN said it will broadcast the show on Aug. 29 as scheduled.
New scenes will be taped to include awards that were not presented, said Patti McTeague, a network spokeswoman .

Family awarded $328 million
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) - The family of a 10-year-old boy
who was murdered when he resisted the sexual advances of two
men was awarded S328 million Wednesday from his killers.
Jeffrey Curley's family has litde hope of collecting any money in
the wrongful death lawsuit from Salvatore Sicari and Charles Jaynes ,
both in prison on murder convictions. But the fanuly has said they
wanted to send a message to pedophiles that they could face civil
suits, even if they avoid criminal charges.
" I'm not getting any money, they're not getting any money," the
family's attorney Lawrence Frisoli said. " What we're saying is this is
a barometer. If you rape kids, you can be held civilly liable."
Family members were not at the courthouse for the decision.
Frisoli said they were too upse t to return after testifying Tuesday.
But he said they were pleased with the decision .
The Middlesex Superior Court jury deliberated after closing
arguments Wednesday morning.
Frisoli introduced gruesome pieces of evidence from the case,
including photos of Curley's dead body and the Rubbermaid co ntainer that held the boy's body when it was thrown into a Maine
nver.
Prosecutors say Sicari and Jaynes were sexually obsessed with the
boy and lured him from h1s Cambridge neighborhood in October
1997 with the promise of a new bike.
They then smothered him with a gasoline-soaked rag when he
resisted their sexual advances.
.
The Curleys have also filed a S200 nullion federal law,uit against
the North America n Man / Boy Love Associatio n, claiming Jaynes
was incited by the group.

Sprint expands Wireless Web
NEW YORK (AP) - Sprim PCS is bringing corporate e-mail
access to mobile phones with an expanded Wireless Web service
that also lets a laptop computer surf the Internet. or a private company network at faster speeds than a regular dial-up connection.
The new business service, announced Wednesday and scheduled
for launch next month, cargets a major gripe among mobile workers who currendy must plug into regular phone lines for remote
access to e-mail, personal files and business applications stored on an
in~rnal company network.
While wireless Internet access is now a commonplace offering
among cell phone companies, the only e-mail option has been
through public Web services such as Yahoo! or America Online.
For the those who didn't want to juggle multiple e-mail accounts,
the only real answer has been to carry a second handheld device
such as a BlackBerry or RIM pager that can exchange iJ]formation
with a corporate network.
"This is a breakthrough in that this may be the beginning of
being able to really read e-mail and send e-mail as if at your desktop," said Ira Brodsky, an industry analyst at Datacomm Research.
Sprint - a wireless leader with consumers and a laggard with
business users - hopes to grab more of the higher-paying corporate market by being the first to offer such services.

one run and four hits.
"One inning you think we're

said. "Then the next, everything

Lieberthal hit a one-out solo
homer otf Scott Sullivan; his
15th, to start the comeback.
Travis Lee followed with a single and Graves came on for his
third appearance in three days.
"He made a mistake and it
kind of got things going," said
Lieberthal, who broke an 0-for13 sl ump with his homer.
Graves walked Rob Ducey

a double-play grounder. He got

NATIONAL .B RIEFS
Mom accused of abandoning kids
VIRGINIA BEACH,Va . (AP) - A woman accused of abandoning her three children in a library said she left them there only
because she was stressed out and hoped to be reunited with the
children and their father.
In a television interview from jail, Roszina Mack said she tried to
pl~ce her children in foster care but didn't get any help, despite
numerous calls to several agencies.
"I didn't know what to do," she told WVEC -TV on Wednesday.
"I was confused. I was stressed out .... I can only take so much ."
Mack, 20, left the children at the Virginia Beach Central Library
on Monday, police said. She was. arrested Tuesday night in nearby
Hampton and faces three counts of felony child neglect. She was to
appear in court Thursday for a bond hearing.
"When we arrested her, she didn't even ask about the children.
She didn't care about their ;.,hereabouts, their health. She wasn't
remoneful," police-spokesman Mike Car.ey said. .
The children - 2 1 /2-year-old twin girls, Breanna and Teanna
Trabal, and an 8-month- old boy, Yabriele Trabal - were placed in
foster care.

Bush seeks te gain offensive on tax cuts ~

.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) -Seeking the offensive on tax cuts, George W Bush was returning to the campaign trail Thursday with
renewed criticism of rival AI Gore's tax-cut
proposal.
Bush, the Republican presidential nominee,
was also pushing new funding for historically
black colleges and preparing for a speech on
U.S. relations with Latin American countries.
Earlier in the week, he acknowledged the
need to do a better job explaining his S1.3
trillion proposal in the face of attacks from
Gore, who has offered a smaller, $500 billion
plan.
"He'll underscore how the vice president's
plan carves people out and denies them tax
relief while ~usn'll__l'ian Jilives hell'. to the
people who need it most," said Bush
spokesman Ari Fleischer.

Scientists talk animal intelligence
CHICAGO (AP) - Dolphins learning and . imitating sounds
made by other dolphins. Adult monkeys with the ability to distinguish which young monkey made a sound and identify that monkey's mother.
There's a lot of talking and listening going on in the animal kingdom. And for the first time, more than two dozen top scientists who
study everything from apes to parrots and sperm whales to hyenas
are gathering to do something rare: talk and listen to each other.
"The purpose is to bring together people who work on different
animal species who don't talk to each other much," said Frans de
Waal, an Emory University psychology professor and leading clumpanzee researcher who is an o~ganizer of the international conference.
"The problems that sea lions solve are similar to the problems primates solve."
The conference, Animal Social Complexity and Intelligence,
began Wednesday and runs through Saturday. The list of speakers
reads like a who's who of scientists: Hans Kummer, famous for his
work with baboons, and Christophe Boesch, a Swiss researcher who
has been studying chimpanzees in the Ivory Coast's Tai National
Park, for example.
The symposium will also include a keynote address by Jane
Goodall, whose observation of primates at Gombe Stream in Tanzania. since 1960 represents the longest-running animal behavior
project.

UPN to air rap awards show
PASADENA, Calif. (AP) - UPN will broadcast a rap music
awards show next week even though the glittery hip-hop celebration was cut short by a borde-throwing brawl.
Only three performances and a handful of awards were
announced before The Source Hip-Hop Music Awards 2000 was
shut down by fights. Some witnesses said some involved members
of various rap groups, although police could not immediately confirm that.
"This is not a reflection of what hip-hop is really all about," rapper Coolio said. "Hip-hop is really about all the people coming
together."
The show, sponsored by The Source magazine, mingled rap stars
such as Grammy Award-winner Dr. Dre with mainstream celebrities. About 2,500 people were inside Pasadena Civic Auditorium,
including U.S. Rep. Maxine Waters, basketball star Shaquille O'Neal
and boxing promoter Don King.
There were no arrests and no injuries, police said.
UPN said it will broadcast the show on Aug. 29 as scheduled.
New scenes will be taped to include awards that were not presented, said Patti McTeague, a network spokeswoman .

Family awarded $328 million
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) - The family of a 10-year-old boy
who was murdered when he resisted the sexual advances of two
men was awarded S328 million Wednesday from his killers.
Jeffrey Curley's family has litde hope of collecting any money in
the wrongful death lawsuit from Salvatore Sicari and Charles Jaynes ,
both in prison on murder convictions. But the fanuly has said they
wanted to send a message to pedophiles that they could face civil
suits, even if they avoid criminal charges.
" I'm not getting any money, they're not getting any money," the
family's attorney Lawrence Frisoli said. " What we're saying is this is
a barometer. If you rape kids, you can be held civilly liable."
Family members were not at the courthouse for the decision.
Frisoli said they were too upse t to return after testifying Tuesday.
But he said they were pleased with the decision .
The Middlesex Superior Court jury deliberated after closing
arguments Wednesday morning.
Frisoli introduced gruesome pieces of evidence from the case,
including photos of Curley's dead body and the Rubbermaid co ntainer that held the boy's body when it was thrown into a Maine
nver.
Prosecutors say Sicari and Jaynes were sexually obsessed with the
boy and lured him from h1s Cambridge neighborhood in October
1997 with the promise of a new bike.
They then smothered him with a gasoline-soaked rag when he
resisted their sexual advances.
.
The Curleys have also filed a S200 nullion federal law,uit against
the North America n Man / Boy Love Associatio n, claiming Jaynes
was incited by the group.

Sprint expands Wireless Web
NEW YORK (AP) - Sprim PCS is bringing corporate e-mail
access to mobile phones with an expanded Wireless Web service
that also lets a laptop computer surf the Internet. or a private company network at faster speeds than a regular dial-up connection.
The new business service, announced Wednesday and scheduled
for launch next month, cargets a major gripe among mobile workers who currendy must plug into regular phone lines for remote
access to e-mail, personal files and business applications stored on an
in~rnal company network.
While wireless Internet access is now a commonplace offering
among cell phone companies, the only e-mail option has been
through public Web services such as Yahoo! or America Online.
For the those who didn't want to juggle multiple e-mail accounts,
the only real answer has been to carry a second handheld device
such as a BlackBerry or RIM pager that can exchange iJ]formation
with a corporate network.
"This is a breakthrough in that this may be the beginning of
being able to really read e-mail and send e-mail as if at your desktop," said Ira Brodsky, an industry analyst at Datacomm Research.
Sprint - a wireless leader with consumers and a laggard with
business users - hopes to grab more of the higher-paying corporate market by being the first to offer such services.

CINCINNATI (AP) -This
one may have finished them off.
Mike Liebcrthal's homer
started a three-run eighth
inning that rallied the Philadelphia Phillies to a 4-3 victory
Wednesday night over the
down -and-out
C incinnati
Reds.
All-Star closer Danny Graves
(1 0-4) missed a game- turning
comeback grounder and blew a
save for only the fourth time
this season, leaving the Reds in
their deepest hole since the AllStar break.
..
"Yeah , it gets old," manager
Jack McKeon said. " But you've
got to keep plugging away and
hope things turn around.
The Reds are fast running out
of time. The Cardinals' 5- 2 win
over Pittsburgh on Wednesday
left St. louis up by 8 1/2 games
- . the bigg~st gap since July 6.
The Reds also starting to
sound like a beaten team, blaming bad luck for their bad play.
"It's just unbelievable," said
starter Scott Williamson , who
lasted seven innings despite a
sore back . "Our guys hit the ball
and it's right at 'em. What can
you do?"
The Phillies also hit the ball
right at 'em - and the Reds
missed it.
Benito
Santiago's
basesloaded single off Robert Person
put Cincinnati ahead 3-1 in the
seventh . At that point, the Reds
were feeling pretty good Philadelphia had managed only
one run and four hits.
"One inning you think we're
right on top of things," Graves
said. "Then the next, everything
hits the tim. lt'sjusr one of those

things."
Lieberthal hit a one-out solo
homer otf Scott Sullivan; his
15th, to start the comeback.
Travis Lee followed with a single and Graves came on for his
third appearance in three days.
"He made a mistake and it
kind of got things going," said
Lieberthal, who broke an 0-for13 sl ump with his homer.
Graves walked Rob Ducey
and then threw a sinker to Marlon Anderson, hoping to induce
a double-play grounder. He got
the grounder - right back at
him -but couldn't make the
play.
.
The ball shot under Graves'
glove and nan:owlll! avoided diving shortstop Barry Larkin,
ro lling into center for a gametying single. Tomas Perez then
hit a grounder too soft for a
double play~-thc R ed• got
o nly the force at second as the
go- ahead run scored and Graves
fumed.
" If I could field the ground
ball, we'd be all right," he said. "I
thought I had it. I was down on
both knees and had my glove
down. I can't explain it. They
did exactly what I wanted th em
to do. They hit it right back at
me."
Chris llrock (7-6) retired the
only batter he faced to close out
the seventh. Vi cente Padilla got
two outs for his first career saw.

Mayfield felt as if he was JUst
hitting his stride after victories at
California Speedway in April
and Pocono lncernational Raceway in June.
He nearly swept th e summer
races at Pocono, but blew a tire
on the last lap and watched helplessly as teammate Rusty Wallace
won .
At th e next race came th e
crash, followed by the anxiety of
being idle. At first, Mayfield
wanted to return for the Global

NATIONAL LEAGUE \

Maclclux has economical outing in BraveS win over Colorado :
BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

. Order w.as restored at Coors
Field. The Atlanta Braves beat the
Colorado Rockies, and Greg
Maddux needed only 68 pitches
to win.
A day after Brent Mayne, normally a catcher, beat the Braves by
pitching a shutout inning, the
efficient Maddux worked seven
strong innings as Adanta beat
Colorado 5-2 Wednesday.
The Braves, who won the tint
16 games they played against the
Rockies, recovered from their
embarrassment to defeat Colorado for the 54th time in 82
games.
."We had to bounce back. We
let a catcher beat us, and we
thought about that one hard," said
Brian Jordan, who hit a three-run
homer to give the Braves a 4-0
lead in the sixth. "We came back
with Maddux pitching a great
game, and we got him some big
hits at the right time."
In other NL games, it was San
Francisco 5, Florida 0; Chicago
15, Houston 5; Philadelphia 4,
Cincinnati 3; St. Louis 5, Pittsburgh 2; Los Angeles 5, Montreal

I; the New York Mets 4, San
Diego I; and Milwaukee 8, Arizona 5.
Maddux (I 4-7) won for just
the second time in seven starts
arid needed no more than 13
pitches in any inning. The game
lasted only 2 houn and 22 minutes compared to the 12-inning
contest Tuesday night that took
4:26 .
"That's Maddux ," said Colorado's Todd Helton, who went
0-tor-4, dropping his major
league-leading average to .393.
"What do yoti expect? No matter
where that guy pitches, he's going
to throw a good game."
The Adanta right-hander left
with a stiff neck after allowing
two runs and seven hits.
"It bothered me a lot," Maddux
said. "It got worse as the game
went on. I was lucky I lasted as
long as I did."
Mike Remlinger pitched two
perfect innings for his 12th save.
After being shut out in three of
Maddux's six previous starts, the
Braves gave him some support
against Brian Rose (4-7), who
allowed four runs in seven

innings.
Giants 5, Marlins 0
Livan Hernandez, who didn't
throw a shutout in his first I 04
starts, pitched his second straight
four-hitter, leading San Francisco
over visiting Florida.
Hernandez (13-9) led the
Giants to their eighth win in I 0
games. Chuck Smith (2-5) gave
up four runs and six hits iri seven
mrungs.
Cub1 15, Astros S
Ruben Quevedo (2-5) took a
no-hit bid into the sixth inning
before Julio Lugo 's three-run
homer at Enron Field.
Quevedo (2-5), making his
eighth major league stan, allowed
five runs - three earned - and
four hits in eight innings a~
Chicago stopped a three-game
losing streak.
Wade Miller (2-5) was pounded for 12 runs, tying the Astros
record. He lasted only 4 2-3
innings.
Cardinals S, Pirates 2
Rick Ankiel (8-7) won for the
second time in 1 I starts, allowing
two runs and six hits in seven
innings at home.

Dave Veres got four outs for his Mets' first two runs, and New
22nd save.
