BADGER Associated Press Writer ANCHORAGE, Alaska - The nation's northernmost community endured its hottest year on record in 1998 ..Still, the typical day in Barrow was about as balmy as a typical day in your freezer. Last year's " heat wave" drove up the average daily temperature in Barrow to 17 degrees - remarkably mild for Alaska's arctic fringe, but nowhere near warm enough to melt, or 11ven soften, a pint-of Rocky Road iCe cream. What made the mildness remark~ble was not that it.surpassed a mark for annual warmth which had stood since 1940, but rather by how much - the old record fell by 3 degrees, and the 30-year temperature average was shattered by 7 1/2 degrees. . "To break a yearly record by that amount is really phenomenal," Rick Thoman, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Fairbanks, said Saturday. Average temperature is calculated by averag in g each day 's high aild low readi ng across the entire year.

Officials there were shocked •• shocked! -- to learn that American CIA officers had taken part in the U.N. Special Commission (UNSCOM) inspection teams .and relayed military intelligence back to the Pentagon. · . . . Most embarrassing is the fact that it confirms what Saddam Hussein Has been charging for years •• and what America has per· sistently denied. 'Each time Saddam tried to kick U.N. inspectors out of his country, he justified it by charging the Americans with spying. It now appear1 that Saddam --.of all people ;. was at least half right. A spokesman for the U.S. mission at the United Nations did not dispute the claim that • CIA agents acted as UNSCOM inspectors. But another excused the action ·by claiming that the very nature of the inspectors' job called for intelligence agents. . More importantly, it seems America isn 'I . alone. Sources tell us that "several" of the 40 countries involved In lr&qi weapons inspections also used intelligence agents -- a fact not previously published, we were told, because of the delicacy of the UNSCOM mission. . Arab officials, meanwhile, say the first reaction of most Middle East countries after the UNSCOM revelations was one of anger. "Saddam was essentially proven right," one diplomat told our associate Kathryn. Wallace. "He has cried wolf many times, and now the U.S. has played right into' his hands," by lending credence to one of his chief allegations against the West. But Hussein has already overplayed his cards, our sources tell us. Any pro-Saddam sentiment withered yesterday when an Iraqi official referred to Kuwait as an amputated piece of Iraq. Nevertheless, support for American action in the Middle East is wavering. Fear- • ful of a remilitarized Saddam, officials from neighboring Arab countries are also worried , that· a piecemeal U.S. approach would destroy American credibility. "If you are going to sock it to (Saddam), sock it to him good," one Arab U.N. official said. "The lit· tie attacks don't shake his infrastructure and · just solidify supPort for him." Backing for the December air strikes against Iraq . were never that strong to start with. Key countries on the U.N.

And countries that did support some type of action raised pointed questions about the timing and ferocity of the strikes. · A sure-fire barometer of international support will come a few months from now. when the United States tabulates all the costs associated with Operation Desert Fox and starts passing the donation tray. While the $61 billion ~b from Operation Desert Storm was almost completely paid by our allies, that may not be the case with the December strikes, according to policy experts we spoke with.

Bob Taft announced today. "The combined agency will improv.e the state's ability to meet the needs · of employers s eekint~ qualified workers and the needs of workers seeking a fist job, a new job, or a better job," Taft said. Combining the 2,300-employee employment services bureau and 1,500employee human services department would not include layoffs, Taft said. The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer reported to~ythat 3,200 employees, a total reached through attrition and selected buyouts, would work for the combined agency. , The new department would oversee the state's 51 job-training programs, which now are spread among 15. agencies. · The Legislature must approve the consolidation, which would be effec. tive July 1, 2000, to allow time for transition adjustments. Human services has a budget of $9.2 billion, while OBES has a budget of$248 million.. · Taft spokeswoman Mary Anne Sharkey said administration officials had no idea what the cost savings will be. "There will be some, though," she said. · Sen. Robert Gardner, R-Madison, told th~ newspaper that the merger could save more than $100 million and improve job training. He co-chaired a committee that studied job,training programs last year. " We found a tremendous amount of duplication of work out there," Gardner said. '~By consolidating, you can cut your costs and put the money where it should go: training programs for employees and employers." SeleCted programs from other departments, including the Department of Development, also will become part of the new agency. ' ' The state's school-to-work program also could be included. The .4-yearold program involves local businesses to help develop curriculum that can help students get jobs after graduation. Consolidating the programs allows the state to be more proactive, said Rep. Bill Harris, co-chairman of a joint committee that studied the issue. The merger will make Oh.io attractive to businesses looking for places to locate and expand, particularly during a recession, when money is more scarce for on-the-job training, he said.

Smce 1990, auth?r~lles have pulled more than 1.5 m1lhon pounds of marijuana and more than 207,000 pounds of cocaine off U.S. highways and interstates, according to the DEA. That includes ITiore than 170,000 pounds of mariJUana and more than 19,000 pounds of cocaine in the first eight months -~f 1998. . .

Suspicious, the officer calls EPIC and asks for a check on the car and its occupants. EPIC has access to databases on drug cases from the FBI, DEA and U.S. Customs. II also keeps track of all highway stops called in to the center. The EPIC search finds that the vehicle crossed the border at Laredo, Texas, about eight hourS earlier.. A drug-sniffing dog is called in · arid 1 alerts officers to the trunk. A searc!l reveals 20 kilos of cocaine. Calls like this pour into ·the center's main operations room, keeping the phones ringing around the clock. The center receives· about 30,000 calls per year. Despite Operation Pipeline, the drug business - wonh $52 billion a year in the U.S. according to the Office of National Drug Control Policy - remains one step ahead. Drug organizations run communications networks that tell couriers which roads police are patrolling most. They use drivers, such as senior citizens, who don'.t fit the ' stereotype of drug runners. .~' Hauling dope, it has no race, it has no religion," Wildauer says. "Age doesn't matter. I've locked up a grandmother and her grandkids for hauling marijuana." The illegal drug business pays its drivers so well, authorities say, that most will go to jail rather than inform on higher-ups. The going rate for transponing marijuana is around $100 per pound, with. loads ranging anywhere from a couple pounds to several hundred. Drugs are often stashed in hidden compartments of cars or trucks, but . authorities have seen cocaine molded into pottery or even heated to a liquid state and soaked into built packages of clothing. When authorities figure out where drugs are being hidden, concealment methods change, creating a daily cat. and-mouse game on interstates and along the Mexican border. • INDIANAPOLIS Dean . ~ildauer knows it's out there. ·.• Dangling a cigarette out the win(low of his Indiana State Police cruiser, the trooper squints at the traffic roaring eastbound on Interstate 70 through a light rain.

More and more, drug dealers are using big trucks to ·conceal their goods. When Ordonez is suspicious of a truck, he sends it to the docks to be unloaded and searched. Some trucks are driven through a massive X-ray that scans the tractor and trailer. On average, about 100 trucks a day wilf be scrminized; the rest pass through unsearched. At the Paso del Norte Port of Entry, which links downtown El Paso with the bustling Mexican city of .Juarez, 10 lanes of automobiles stretch in lines several blocks long. Inspectors in dark-blue uniforms · move through the lines, tapping their hands on the sides of vehicles, pounding small hammers against tires and hunching over to point Oashlights into wheel wells. Employees of the drug smugglers watch, noticing which inspectors are being the most thorough. The men use cell phones to tell couriers which lanes to avoid.

MIAMI (AP) -1\vo robberies that left aCanadian man dead and a Latin American businesswoman in critical condition have given rise to worries thlu the tourist attacks l;)f the early 1990s are making a comeback. Although officials said the victims ' backgrounds had nothing to do with the attacks, the shootings have brought back memories of killings that panicked many European vacationers. f( • "We're at the neigh! of the tourist season, with Super Bowl coming," Miami-Dade County Manager Merrell Stierheim told Tuesday's edition of, the Sun-Sentinel of Fort Lauderdale. " Without question, this is a sensitive time for ·us .... We're concerned. We've been do-rn this road before." The Super Bowl will be played in Miami-Dade Couiuy on Jan. 31. Police said Benoit Lessard, 69, a retired truckdriver from Quebec, was shot early Sunday by a gunman who may have followed him home from Fon Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport. Lessard was killed one day after wealthy Panam~nian Lynn Motta was robbed and shot several times at a shopping mall . . Hours after Lessard was killed , his wife and daughter packed and left Miami -Dade County for good. " I don 't think they have warm feelings about this area anymore," neighbor Kathleen Mendes said. Miami-D.ade County's crime rate has dropped significantly since 1993, the year three German tourists were killed in robberies that made headlines worldwide. The killings were among 10 tourist-related slayings in Florida during 1992 and 1993. · Cases concluded.in Meigs County Court session · I ! The following cases were settled Craig M.

BUI the Child Online Protection Act has met with just · as much. opposition as its-predecessor, leading to a three-day hearing scheduled to begin today in federal court. The law for now is on hold. The act would require com- mercia! Web sites to collect a credit card number or some other access "code as proof of age before allowing Internet users to view online material deemed " harmful to minors." Violators would · face penalties of up to six months in jail and a $50,000 fine.

That's the way it happened for McDermott, star of ABC's legal · drama "The Practice." He says his anger at losing his mother when he was 5 left him angry but ultimately shaped his own life. "When you lose a parent young, it hardens you to life . Then you make a decision. Either you give in to it or you get ba~k at it, ~~ McDermott explains in the upcoming USA Weekend magazine. '.' Anger drove me to be ambitious. Anger .- really constructi;anger,-· is great." . Me rmott, 36, said his mother's death "made me feel invisible. Acting made me visible." · The kind of introspection that can come with turning anger around "is a hard journey," he says. But there 's a payoff: "You deal with yourself." I I cure for it. That means people have to live with its discomfort their whole lives. Treatment for Crohn 's Disease usually involves the use of medicines. Sulfasalazine, Asacoi, Dipentum, Prednisone and other gluc·ocorticoid steroid drugs have been the most frequently utilized. Unfortunately, these products, just like every other drug, can have side effects that limit their usefulness. In recent years, immunosuppressant drugs have been utilized with fair success to treat individuals with severe flair-ups of Crohn 's disease. This is a chimge from the time when your father had this disease. Azathioprine and 6-mercaptopurine are the most frequently employed members of this group. • · Also, new anti-inflammatory medicines - currently awaiting government approval - will probably soon be on the market. These drugs are in the COX-2 family and will initially be marketed for .the treatment of arthritis. . In addition, they also hold promise for the treatment ofCrohn's disease. The hope is that they will relieve the symptoms at least as well as currently available drugs and at R. L.

During Clinton's defense before senators Wednesday, Deputy White House Counsel Cheryl Mills argued that House managers ignored testimony from Mrs. Currie in order .to falsely accuse the president of trying to obStruct the Paula Jones sexual harassment lawsuit against the president. The defense lawyer cited Mrs. Currie's testimony that Clinton never asked her to pick up gifts from Ms. Lewinsky after the presents were subpoenaed by the Jones lawyers. Mrs. Currie testified it was Ms. Lewinsky who asked her to retrieve the gifts. · FuJthermore, Ms. Mills said the prosecutors ignored Mrs. Currie'~ testimony that Clinton was not trying to pressure his secretary when he questioned her about her recollection of his actions with M.s.

While contesting the details of !he prosecutors' case, the lawyer asked senators to retain "the big picture." "The president had a relationship with a young .woman.

WASWNOTON (AP) - Concluding the first phase of.Pt'esident Clinton's impeachment trial, his lawyers are U!Jiing senators to reject allegations of legal wrongdoing and focus on "the big picture"- an attempt by a married m.an to hide an extnimarital affair. · < For their thiril and final day of oral presentations to rebut perj!lf)' .and obstruction ·of justice cltarges, the Clinton .team is combining the methodical arguments of ' .private liwyer David Kendall with the oratory· of Dale Bumpers. Bumpers, a fanner Democratic senator from Arkansas and longtime friend of Ointon, is known as a gifted pliblic speaker. . Once Bumpers finishes, senators who have been forced under trial rules to sit in uncharacteristic silence will have another unfamiliac task - submitting q~estions in writing to Chief Justice William Rehnquist, who as-presiding officer will read them and ask the lawyers and House prosecutors to respond. -The question period may be the phase ofthe trial conducted in a bipartisan spirit.
