Since mid-April, the former county judge's attorney, Stephen Romine, has taken a half-dozen depositions with investigators and other witness- es in his client's court case. Graham, who served as county judge from 1986 to 1993 before being removed by the state Supreme Court, faces up to life in prison if convicted of sexual battery He pleaded not guilty and is free on bond. Graham is accused of fondling two 10-year-old girls, including the daugh- ter of a former girlfriend, who stayed one night at his Dunnellon home. The case came to authorities' atten- tion in late April 2004. A friend of the woman's daughter reportedly told her mother about it while the two were watching a television movie. Those depositions, encased in five thick volumes at the Citrus County Clerk of Courts Office, contain hun- dreds of pages of detailed testimony that Romine hopes will prove the alle- gations untrue. Romine's depositions with two investigators and a Citrus County sheriff's deputy include: One girl insisted the acts took place in February 2004, about a week after Valentine's Day. That child's mother recently told prosecutors the incidents actually occurred in December 2003. When Romine told Deputy Mike Tackett this during his deposition, Tackett said he was con- cerned the girl had waited so long to report it The investigator for the Department of Children and Families, Holly Capps, told Romine it didn't matter when the incident hap- pened.

SUNDAY JULY 31, 2005 www.chronicleonline.com Rep. aims for state office Associated Press WASHINGTON U.S. Rep. Jim Davis walked to the wall of his con- gressional office, took down a framed photo of President Clinton signing a bill and pointed at a man peering over the president's shoulder. The man is Nelson Mongiovi, who had come to Davis a year earlier and said his 93-year-old mother was being kicked out of a Tampa nursing home because her money had run out and she was relying on Medicaid. Mongiovi told him there ought to be a law against the practice. Davis agreed and the Democrat worked with a Republican colleague to get the bill to Clinton's desk. "Because of Nelson Mongiovi, who traveled up here on his own nickel in his car three or four times to testify, what happened to his mother can never happen to your mother or to mine," Davis said after rehanging the photo next to his desk "It's a good example of how the system can work." Davis tells the story when school children visit as a lesson on how laws are enacted. It's also inspirational to him as he runs for governor. Davis, who served as a lawmaker in Tallahassee before coming to Washington in 1997, isn't happy with the way the state Capitol has been run under Republican rule. "I'm like most Floridians. I'm an outsider in Tallahassee. I've had to watch most of this stuff and I've just had enough," said Davis, a Tampa lawyer who's one of seven Democrats and 18 Repub- licans representing Florida in the U.S. House. While he can have a voice in federal education funding, he runni doesn't have a say on how the gove Florida Comprehensive As- prir sessment Test is used to pun- ish and reward Florida's schools. While he can fight for federal high- way money, he wasn't part of the debate when Florida lawmakers passed a law to control sprawl. And while Medicaid is a state/federal partnership for the poor and elderly, he has no vote on Gov. Jeb Bush's plans to overhaul the system by mak- ing it more like private managed D rr health care. "Medicaid does need reform, but there's a right way .H and a wrong way to do that. What Gov. Bush was proposing was to balance the Medicaid budget on the backs of people who depend on Medicaid to V stay out of hospitals, stay out of nursing homes, stay in nurs- npa, ing homes like Nelson nor in Mongiovi's mother," Davis ary. said. "I don't think that's the way you reform Medicaid." Tallahassee has changed a lot since Davis served there. When he was elected to the state House in 1988, Democrats firmly controlled both chambers. During his final year in the Legislature in 1996, Republicans had a slim majority in the Senate, but Democrats still held the governor's office and the House. Now, Repub- licans dominate both chambers by ON THE NET U.S. Rep. Jim Davis: http://www.house.gov/jimdavis/ about a 2-1 ratio and Bush is Florida's first Republican governor to win re- election. Yet, for last fall's elections, Democrats outnumbered Repub- licans 4.3 million to 3.9 million among Florida's registered voters. Davis complains the state GOP-led govern- ment has not served the interests of everyday Floridians. Bush can't seek re-election because of term limits. Davis is facing former Tallahassee Mayor Scott Maddox and state Sen. Rod Smith in the primary. Republicans seeking the seat include state Chief Financial Officer Tom Gallagher and Attorney General Charlie Crist. Probe finds no double votes Associated Press JACKSONVILLE Investi- gators found no evidence that anyone-cast more than one bal- lot in the November election in Duval County, although a probe into fraud allegations from early voting in the county continues. County Elections Supervisor Jerry Holland said the FBI investigation didn't turn up any evidence that voters cast more than one ballot in the county either on Nov. 2 or in absentee voting. Officials said in January that a review of voting records uncovered more than 50 cases in which it appeared the same person had cast an absentee ballot and voted on election day or otherwise voted twice in some way, such as voting in two places, leading U.S. Attorney Paul Perez to launch a federal investigation. But Holland said each apparent case of double-voting was attributed to a clerical error, such as someone signing the voter rolls at one polling place before being told they had to go to another location to vote. One case involved a father and son with the same name who signed in the wrong place. About 380,000 people voted in the November election in Duval County, so the votes in question represented less than 1/50th of one percent. "These results show voters that they can have confidence in the elections office," Holland said. Double voting is punishable by up to five years in prison and a $10,000 fine. The FBI will continue to look into some allegations of potential voter fraud that stemmed from early voting in the county, Holland said. Associated Press MANATEE Safeco Insurance said it will stop writing homeowners policies in Florida, the sixth insurance company to announce its departure from the market since last year's rough hurricane season. Seattle-based Safeco notified the state Office of Insurance Regulation that it won't write new policies and, starting in 2006, won't renew exist- ing ones. It stopped writing new homeowner policies this week Safeco has 30,000 personal property cus- tomers in Florida, with the most more than 2,600 in Hillsborough County. Duval County is its second biggest homeowner policy market.

"This is a really good thing for the town," Yankeetown Mayor Jimmie Wall said. "It's just very, very pretty." The town recently reconstructed a boat dock at Yacht Basin Park on 56th Avenue. Town officials held a ribbon cutting and dedication ceremony at 10 a.m. Saturday.

Mittauer also added a boarding pier, picnic area, a fishing pier and new light fixtures to the park "It's going to be a great asset to the town," he said. "The project came out better than we expected." Residents of Yankeetown who attend- ed the dedication ceremony were pleased with the outcome of the recon- structed park and boat ramp. "The wonderful picnic arda will help to bring the community together," Diane Blomgren said. "It will give us a place to gather in the town and hold events." Avid boaters at the ceremony were excited about the new boat ramp. "People will be happy they can launch their boats safely without drop- ping in a hole," Ken Blomgren said. Mittauer said the project cost $360,000, funded through two $150,000 grants and one $60,000 grant. The boat ramp and park was complet- ed July 1 after four months of work "It was a very elaborate process, and we are very happy with it," Mittauer said. Wall said the town has plans to build a parking lot near the park to prevent congestion on the street. "The project really came out well," Wall said. "I am very pleased."

Assoczarea Iress FORT MYERS Al Hoff- man, one of the top fund-rais- ers for President Bush and Gov. Jeb Bush, has been nominated by the president to be the U.S. ambassador to Portugal. Hoffman, 71, is chairman of Bonita Springs home-building firm WCI Communities and a longtime Bush family friend. His nomination must be approved by the Senate. The West Point graduate was finance chairman for the Republican National Committee, headed President Bush's fund-raising effort in 2000 in Florida and Gov. Jeb Bush's in 2002. In all, he's raised about $300,000 for Bush's presidential campaigns. He also chaired Jeb Bush's inaugural committee. Portugal was one of the first nations to establish diplomatic relations with the United States in 1791 and is a member of the European Union. Hoffman, who served four years in the Air Force and has a master's degree from Harvard, would replace John N. Palmer, who left the post last year. Hoffman was one of two men from southwest Florida nomi- nated this week to head embassies.

According to an arrest report, Alphonse called deputies because he had a physical altercation with a woman. According to the report, Alphonse said the woman hit him in the back of the head. A witness observed Alphonse and the woman wrestling with each other in the bathroom of the residence and Alphonse pulled the woman's hair and struck her, according to the report. Deputies observed a large chunk of hair on the woman's back and she GRAHAM Continued from Page 1A Deputy: Reporting delay a 'concern' When Romine, a Tampa attorney who has practiced criminal defense since 1992, met with Deputy Tackett for their three-hour deposition March 4, he asked whether the officer knew anything about Graham, who made headlines during his time on the bench for what some considered out- rageous sentences. The Florida Supreme Court, following a recommendation from the Judicial Qualifications Commission, removed Graham for judicial misconduct. Tackett said he hadn't met Graham, but he knew of him. "I was told he was a' neat judge," Tackett said. "He did things that were kind of shock- ing, so far as making people cut trucks up and stuff or killing rattlesnakes; but other than that, nothing, nothing nega- tive." Romine asked how that knowledge may impact Tackett's handling of the case. The deputy replied, "Great I'm going to be sitting in front of people with recorders for a long time. But other than that, I ... could care less. If some little girl, if something bad hap- pened to her, then that's what I'm here for." The complaint to the abuse hotline regarding Graham's girlfriend's daughter's friend came on April 29, 2004. Tackett was the first official to respond. He said the girl told him that she was watching a cable TV movie with her mom that con- tained sensitive sexual content involving children. Her mother asked -if one of her former boyfriends had ever touched her where she shouldn't be touched. Tackett said the girl told her mother that the boyfriend had- n't, but Graham did. Her mother thought her daughter was confused and instead referring to an incident five years earlier when the girl said her grandfather fondled her The girl told Tackett .that about a week after Valentine's Day 2004 she and her friend stayed at Graham's home. It was a Friday and they stayed up past midnight. She said Graham entered a guest room they were in, pulled the blan- ket and sheet off her and placed his hands inside her pajamas and her panties, according to the deposition transcript. The girl said Graham then did the same thing to her friend who was asleep, records state. Tackett said he established the approximate timeline by helping the girl associate it with holidays or special days. said she wanted to press charges, according to the report. Alphonse was placed under arrest and transported to the Citrus County Detention Facility. He is being held without bond. Thomas J. Winger, 34, Crystal River, at 4:33 p.m. Friday on a charge of domestic battery. According to an arrest report, deputies responded to a disturbance at Winger's residence. A woman told deputies Winger came home from work, started yelling at her and moving her items out of the residence, according to the report. The woman said Winger grabbed her by the back of her hair, lifted her off the couch and smacked her with an open hand on the back of her "The girl said it was some- time in February, a week or somewhere around Valentine's Day, a week after," Tackett said. "She didn't know." When Romine told him that the girls spent the night at Graham's house in December 2003, and not February, Tackett laughed, according to the tran- script. Romine asked why he had that reaction and Tackett said he believed the girl was certain about the incident hap- pening in February. (Buxman said Friday the time frame changed from February 2004 to December 2003 when the girl's mother checked her cell phone records. The mother had called her daughter at Graham's house.) Romine asked if it was unusual for a victim to wait sev- eral months before telling someone. "Suspicious, but it's com- mon," Tackett said. Romine: "OK, did it bother you at all as an investigator?" Tackett: "Yeah. Yeah. The more time that passes, it's harder and harder." He explained that long delays in reporting a crime make it more difficult to prove. Romine then asked if such a delay would give him more concern or less concern about the truth of the allegation. Tackett: "If they take a longer and longer and longer time before they report it, yes, definitely more concern." He added this caveat: "From a 10-year-old girl, that kind of, you know *- if it's traumatic and she was really scared. Kids lock things human beings lock things up and act pecu- liar." FDLE agents searched Graham's home FDLE Special Agent Pope didn't lead the Graham investi- gation, Special Agent Edith Neal did. Her deposition is set for Aug. 30. Pope said he is Neal's super- visor and he led the warrant search of Graham's home. The warrant sought, among other things, the robe that the girls said Graham wore over his clothing, and children's dress- up accessories. Graham knew nothing of the warrant, Pope said, and wasn't home when the search was conducted. Agents arrived at his home accompanied by a locksmith so they wouldn't have to break the door down. A side door was unlocked and that's how they got in, according to Pope's dep- osition. One agent took photographs of evidence while Pope, Neal and another agent searched. Pope said he retrieved bar- rettes, wigs and a Halloween costume from the home. With each item, Romine asked how it fit into the catego- ry of a child's dress accessory or within the confines of the warrant neck, according to the report. In the report, Winger denied touching the woman. The deputy did observe red marks on the woman's neck, placed Winger under arrest and transported him to the Citrus County Detention facility, according to the report. He is being held without bond. DUI arrest Charlie T. Wells Jr., 25, 2562 N. Treasure Point, Hernando, at 6:24 p.m. Friday on charges of driv- ing under the influence and pos- Pope also confiscated photo- graphs of Graham with the girl- friend that he admitted were outside the scope of the war- rant, according to the deposi- tion transcript. "So you, the FDLE, made an exception to what the warrant permitted. Is that fair to say?" Romine asked. Pope: "If we yes. If we seized the photographs of that." Pope said he couldn't remember if they found the robe. Romnine noted that the FDLE inventory of items taken from Graham's home doesn't include a robe. "Well, your receipt doesn't mention any robes," Romine said. "It mentions a witch's cos- tume, but no robes." DCF investigator spoke to girls DCF investigator Holly Capps' involvement in the Graham criminal case was lim- ited, but her May 26 deposition with Romine is one of the longest and most intense. Capps said the DCF child abuse hotline received an, anonymous call April 29 that alleged abuse to the friend of Graham's girlfriend's daughter. She visited the girl's house the next day and either showed a report with the allegations to the girl's mother or read it to her. "Mother advised that the allegations in the narrative were correct," according to Romine's reading from the report during the deposition.

His bond was set at $7,500. Also related to this case, deputies arrested Jyenna C. Baxter at 11:14 a.m. Friday on charges of burglary Capps said the girl told her Graham placed his hand down her pajamas, and then did the same thing to the other girl as she was sleeping. (Names of the children, their parents and siblings are blacked out in court records.) Capps said she spoke to the mother, who related how her daughter told her this during the TV program. Romine asked if it would be important for Capps' investigation to know that the girl had made a simi- lar claim several years earlier about her grandfather that was unfounded. Capps said it would, but she also said the mother didn't mention that. Later, the girl told Capps that her grandfa- ther, now deceased, had fon- dled her in the same manner. A sheriff's investigation found no truth to the claim, court records show. According to the anonymous complaint, the Graham inci- dent occurred in February but Capps suggested the time frame didn't matter to her. Romine: "As the investigator on the case, was it important to you to know when this hap- pened?" Capps: "What was important for me to know was that the children were with their respective caregivers and the Unlimited Hours! 9ONE FULLL YEAR $9 9 (,loer e-,,ls 731105 No credit card requited!

The bride was her sister the groom was his brother. In New York, it was typical for George to work three jobs to support his family. He saw that crime was going up dramatical- ly where they lived and also that he was spending hours commuting to work each day. When he came to the area one year on vacation, he was hooked. "He just loved the area," his wife, Barbara McCaffrey, said. George, Barbara, and their four children all ended up moving to Citrus County in the 1970s, where he continued working for telephone compa- nies. "He worked hard and he played hard," daughter Pat Coles said. The McCaffreys live on the Crystal River, and George loved taking his family boating. In 1978, George went to Saudi Arabia for three years to work establishing a private telephone system. From there, HOME Continued from Page 1A ties, gets invited places," Kelli said. "She loves her friends." Lately, Anastasia has been acting as a translator via tele- phone between families in Citrus County waiting to adopt and the children still in Russian orphanages, including some of her friends she left behind last year. 'Not fair' If anyone in the O'Grady household deserves to say, "not fair," it would be older sister Katie. It's her life that has been the most disrupted, from shar- ing a room to sharing her par- ents. This week the family moved from a two-bedroom, one-bathroom house into a four-bedroom, two bathroom house. Katie gets her privacy back and Anastasia gets her own room for the first time in her life. "It's way different having two daughters," Kelli said. "It's been a challenge to figure out how to not treat them like twins, how to not buy two of everything and how to not lump them together. But every- thing about them is different, and with one older than the other, we treat them different- ly, like giving them separate bedtimes." But to Anastasia, unless it's' exactly the same, it's "not fair." In the orphanage, everyone got the same thing. It's taken a year for Anastasia to begin to understand that families oper- ate differently than institu- tions. In a year, Anastasia has grown about 4 inches and gained 22 pounds. She took tennis lessons (didn't like those), went to Disney World and Busch Gardens and sum- mer camp. "I love America!" she said. "I got my ears pierced, and Mama said maybe I can get a second hole (pierced) this summer. And I love American food - hamburgers.

"He always told me no mat- ter what job you do, you've got to give it your best shot," Coles said. George was the kind of man who loved having company over and kept in touch with many childhood friends 'and people from overseas. He taught his children to be on time and read instructions before starting a project. He enjoyed gardening and his daughter Joanne Cacyuk said he could grow a tomato plant 5 feet tall. George subscribed to several newspapers because he loved finishing the crossword puzzles and spent hours each day working them out He was a pack rat and kept radios, broken coffee pots, drills, telephones and jars of mismatched screws. His wife said he believed he would eventually get around to fixing his garage filled with small appliances. "He was his own person," Mrs. McCaffrey said. One of George's favorite like them, but now I do. "And once I ate cake for breakfast and one day I had ice cream for breakfast," she said. "And I asked my mom if I could get highlights in my hair before school starts." She's looking forward to get- ting braces and wants "bright, shiny teeth like all Americans." She's definitely an American girl, her mom said. Last year she packed a Fluffernutter sandwich every day for her school lunch. She rolls her eyes like a typical preteen and says, "I don't sink so." She loves shopping at the mall. Her favorite stores are Claire's Boutique, Limited Too and Aeropostle and Starbucks. However, she can't quite grasp the concept of a credit card. "I don't get it," she said. "You just go to the store and get what you want and give (the clerk) a plastic card. Where can I get one of those?" "She's brought an element to our family that we would never have if we didn't have her," Kelli said. We're always, 'Hurry up, hurry up, we're leaving in five minutes!' and she takes her time. She cro- chets and invests in relation- ships. She's very much, 'Can I help you?' and 'How are you?' She's slowed our pace." And that's something that amazes Kelli, as she considers all that Anastasia has packed into one short year: going from institutional living to being part of a family, learning a for- eign language, plus learning all the cultural things most people her age have taken 12 years to learn. For example, when you go to someone's house and it smells bad, you don't say so. For the longest time she thought Americans were fake that way, and that made her angry. But she's catching on that it's not fake, it's polite. "Every day it gets better," Kelli said. "Some days when I see her laying and watching TV, it's like she's always been here."

Private prisons staying course Though no longer government-funded, for-profit entities face surge in business Associated Press NEW YORK Though state govern- ments are no longer fueling a private prison boom, the industry's major compa- nies are upbeat-thanks in large measure to a surge of business from federal agen- cies seeking to house fast-rising numbers of criminals and detained aliens. Since 2000, the number of federal inmates in private facilities prisons and halfway houses has increased by two- thirds to more than 24,000. Thousands more detainees not convicted of crimes are confined in for-profit facilities, which now hold roughly 14 percent of all federal prisoners, compared to less than 6 percent of state inmates. Critics, including prisoners rights groups and unionized corrections officers, contend the policy amounts to a federal bailout of an industry that would other- wise be struggling with a checkered record. The companies and the govern- ment say they provide a flexible, economi- cal alternative to building new federal prisons as get-tough policies boost demand for space in an overcrowded sys- tem. "If the Bureau of Prisons is going to build capacity for themselves, they have to plan eight years in advance," said John drug w been main c of prof the pr prisons crimin( Univer Ferguson, chief executive of the The Corrections Cor- poration of Amer- ar has ica, the biggest company in the the field. "It takes a lot longer in the cause public sector than private sector to its for get things done."

Saddled with thousands of empty beds, CCA teetered near bankruptcy before new federal contracts helped it rebound. Since . 2000, the Nashville, Tenn.-based company has doubled its number of federal prison- ers to 18,200 29 percent of its overall inmate population. "The federal government smiled on them just in time," said Judith Greene, a New York-based prison policy analyst. Business is certain to grow. Bureau of Prisons spokeswoman Traci Billingsley said the number of federal inmates is expected to rise from 185,000 to 226,000 by 2010, with private companies likely to be relied on for housing non-citizen immi- grants convicted of federal crimes. The number of people detained by U.S. Associated Press Chaplain Ron Day, upper right, of the Wheeler Correctional Facility, speaks to a group of inmates in this Feb. 7, 2005, file photo. "Faith pod," an Alamo, Ga. Reason Foundation research group favoring privatization, predicted private companies would do increasingly varied business with the states offering more health and rehabilitation programs as well as beds, like the "faith pod" program shown here run by Corrections Corporation of America. immigration officials also is increasing rapidly up three-fold in the past 10 years to more than 21,000 at a given time. In December, Congress passed a terrorism prevention bill calling for 40,000 addition- al beds by 2010 for aliens awaiting depor- tation. Many of the detainees are housed at facilities run by CCA and its main rival, GEO Group formerly Wackenhut. Both companies anticipate their detention business will grow. "Those two are huge beneficiaries of, overincarceration in the immigration sys- tem," said Lucas Guttentag of the American Civil Liberties Union's Immigrants Rights Project. The private facilities are required to meet "rigorous federal standards," said Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokeswoman Jamie Zuieback Yet critics insist privatization will lead to cost-cutting and accountability problems affecting detainees' welfare. "They're putting in a system where it's easier to pass the buck," said lawyer Dan Kesselbrenner of the Boston-based National Immigration Project Rep. Ted Strickland, D-Ohio, a former prison psychologist, tried unsuccessfully to block privatization approval in Congress. "When the primary goal is prof- it, that can and probably does lead to a variety of abuse," Strickland said. "I don't see any end in sight." On the state level, there is no compara- ble boom for private prisons, but neither is there the bust some industry critics antic- ipated. As of mid-2004, private prisons housed 74,285 state inmates, compared to 76,763 in mid-2001. About 30 states use private prisons, notably in the South and West Texas has the most inmates in private facilities - more than 16,000; New Mexico has the highest portion of inmates in them 43 percent Bush's checkup results: A-OK Associated Press BETHESDA, Md. Pres- ident Bush was pronounced "fit for duty" after an annual checkup Saturday that showed that the 59-year-old command- er in chief, an avid mountain bike rider, has lost 8 pounds since his last physical exam in December. "I'm feeling pretty good," Bush said as he left the National Naval Medical Center in suburban Washington. In December, Bush weighed 199.6 pounds, six pounds more than in the summer of 2003. He attributed the weight-gain to munching too many doughnuts during his re-election cam- paign. A four-page medical summa- ry issued by the White House said Bush remains in the "superior" fitness category for a man of his age. A separate statement signed by nine doctors who conducted the physical said there is "every reasonable expectation that he GC i. E.

Bush's overall cholesterol count remains at a healthy level, despite a slight rise to 178 from 170 seven months ago. There was a small drop in his high-density lipoprotein (HDL) count, or "good" cholesterol, and a small rise in his low-den- sity lipoprotein (LDL) or "bad" cholesterol. Still, both levels were within healthy ranges. Doctors said cholesterol-low- ering drugs were not neces- sary.

"He's in superior health," White House spokesman Dana Perino told reporters after Bush returned to the White House. "I think you all know he's got a terrific fitness rou- tine. It's a good example for Americans." Most states' policies remain unchanged since the 1990s and the bottom line is that overcrowding remains a stubborn prob- lem. Still, arguments persist over the pros and cons of private prisons, which pay lower average wages than government agencies. Whether this undermines per- formance is hotly debated, although feder- al researchers concluded in 2001 that high staff turnover did aggravate security prob- lems at many private facilities. Industry officials insist they have addressed such concerns. "For those who think the public employ- ee monopoly should be maintained, and sentencing advocates who believe we send too many people to prison, we're an easy target," said CCA's Ferguson. "But if I'm chief executive of a state, I'd see a value to having competition in my prison system." The industry's future is bright enough that GEO Group is buying rival Correctional Services Corp., but prospects. hinge largely on incarceration trends. Many states have balked at funding new prisons, and now face crowding problems they could ease by using private prisons or diverting some offenders to alternatives like drug-treatment programs. I "The drug war has been the main cause of profits for private prisons," said University of North Florida criminologist Michael Hallett. "We've gotten so extreme in overusing incarceration that we have for-profit industries with an interest in high crime rates." Geoff Segal of the pro-privatization Reason Foundation predicted private companies will diversify their state busi- ness offering more health and rehabili- tation programs, for example. "States with private prisons aren't going to get rid of them," Segal said. "It's a tough sell for a state to say it's going to spend more money on corrections rather than on Medicaid."

And according to scientists who found it orbiting the sun, it's the newest planet on our solar system's block. The planet the farthest-known object in the solar system is cur- 'rently 9 billion miles away from the sun, or about three times Pluto's cur- rent distance from the sun. fK. "This is the first object to be con- firmed to be larger than Pluto in the outer solar system," Michael Brown, a planetary scientist at the California Institute of Technology, said Friday in a telephone briefing announcing the discovery. Brown labeled the object as a 10th planet, but there are scientists who dispute the classification of Pluto as such. Astronomers do not know the new planet's exact size, but its brightness shows that it is at least as large as Pluto and could be up to 1 1/2 times bigger The research was funded by NASA. Brown has submitted a name for the new planet to the International Astronomical Union, which has yet to act on the proposal, but he did not release the proposed name Friday. The briefing was hastily arranged after Brown received word that a secure Web site containing the discov- ery was hacked and the hacker threat- ened to release the information. Brown and colleagues Chad Trujillo of the Gemini Observatory and David Rabinowitz of Yale University first photographed the object in 2003 using a 48-inch tele- scope at the Palomar Observatory. But it was so far away that its motion was not detected until data was analyzed again this past January. It will take at least six months before astronomers can determine its exact size. It has taken scientists this long to find the planet because its orbit is at an angle compared to the orbits of most planets. The new planet is rocky and icy, similar to Pluto, Brown said. Alan Stern of the Southwestern Research Institute in Boulder, Colo., said he was not surprised by the dis- covery since other objects around the size of Pluto have been found in the Kuiper belt, a disc of icy debris beyond the orbit of Neptune. What's unique about the latest find- ing is that the object appears to be big- ger than Pluto, he said. "Unless they've made a grave mis- take, this is for real," said Stern. ,.PACT Continued from Page 1A sign on Tuesday, will outweigh *,the economic impact. They ,.note that the six CAFTA coun- tries have economies that are very small in comparison with ,.the U.S. economy ^ The debate about the pact 'was the most contentious free- - trade fight in Congress in more .than a decade. - The U.S. International Trade ,-Commission, which did the 'most extensive study of the -agreement, found that it will have a tiny but positive impact on the U.S. economy a gain of 0.01 percent in output in an $11 trillion economy Overall price breaks for U.S. consumers will be small because 80 percent of goods from the six nations already come into the U.S. duty-free under federal programs to help poor nations. Yet the effect on some indus- 'tries will be significant. The commission estimated that after full phase-in of the agreement, U.S. exports of tex- tiles and clothing to the six ,countries will increase by $802.8 million. Machinery exports will rise by $400.6 mil- lion. Auto shipments will go up. Trade agreement would benefit industry A study on the impact of the U.S.-Central American-Dominican Republic Free Trade Agreement shows that several industries would benefit from the agreement. Estimated increase of U.S. exports after full tariff elimination. Textiles, Petroleum, Machinery, Other Motor apparel coal, etc. equipment manufacture vehicles Grains SOURCE: U.S. International Trade Commission AP by $180.4 million. Sales of wheat and other grains will climb by $157.3 million. Total U.S. exports to the CAFTA nations will rise by $2.7 billion, or 14.8 percent, accord- ing to the study The value of goods sent from those countries to the U.S. will jump by $3.1 billion for textile and clothing shipments, while shipments of processed sugar will increase by $113.2 million. The total increase in imports will come to $2.8 billion at the time of full phase-in. The study estimated that imports in some categories will decline in future years. "The biggest winners from the passage of CAFTA will be the people of Central America. This will solidify the tremen- dous gains they have made.in economic and political reforms," said Dan Griswold, head of trade studies at the Cato Institute, a libertarian think tank in Washington. In addition to promoting the pact on foreign policy grounds, the Bush administration and Republican leaders participat-. ed in a frenzy of dealmaking to win votes. One deal meant passage of House legislation to make it easier to impose penalty tariffs on China in trade disputes. Also, there were agreements sought by textile state lawmak- ers to ensure that U.S. plants now shipping yarn and fabric to Latin America, where it is made into finished clothing, will not lose out to competition from China and other low-cost suppliers. Despite all the horse-trading, the legislation passed by only two votes, 217-215, on Thursday night after House leaders held the normal 15-minute vote open for an hour to allow more arm-twisting.

" London attacks suggest global reach Investigators draw comparisons with other recent terrorist attacks Associated Press LONDON When the bomb he tried to detonate aboard a London Tube train failed to explode, police say Osman Hussain jumped out of a carriage window, ran along the track, then hopped through back yards before melting into the city's bustle. After going underground for five days, Hussain boarded a train at Waterloo station - possibly walking past his pic- ture and those of three other Osr suspected July 21 attackers on Hus posters that blanketed the city. suspe Then he slipped away, travel- failed I ing from London through bombi France to Rome. July His ability to escape a mas- sive British dragnet, coupled with the arrest of another suspect in Zambia with al-Qaida ties, raised fears about the global reach of today's terrorists and the depth of their networks. Hussain, an Ethiopian-born Briton, was captured Friday at his brother Remzi Isaac's house in Rome, where police traced him through his use of a relative's cell phone.

In addition to Hussain, at least two of the other July 21 suspects were of East African origin, and Italian Interior Minister Giuseppe Pisanu said the country was watching the area closely Though officials have not yet said they found links between the deadly July 7 attacks and the failed attacks exactly two weeks later both of which targeted three subway trains and a bus - police chief Sir Ian Blair said there was a "resonance" between the two. Britain was seeking Hussain's extra- dition and said it was seeking the return of one of its citizens detained in Zambia. Though the Foreign Office has not released the person's name, it is wide- ly reported to be Haroon Rashid Aswat, who Zambian officials have said was being questioned about 20 phone calls he allegedly made to some of the men involved in the July 7 attacks, which killed 56 people, including four suicide bombers. Aswat is implicated in a 1999 plot to establish a terrorist training camp in the United States and has told Zambian investigators he once was a bodyguard for al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden, Zambian officials said. Before he was detained in Zambia, Aswat had been hiding in Johannesburg, South Africa, and was followed after entering the country from Botswana, the Zambian officials said. "Every single terrorist event we've had, and the failed ones we've had, there usually are foreign connections, even though the cannon fodder may be home grown," said Magnus Ranstorp, director of the Center for the Study of Terrorism and Political Violence at the University of St. Associated Press A member of a mixed faith delegation from the Beeston community in Leeds, Yorkshire, lays flowers and holds a sign Saturday at St. Pancras Old Church, near Kings Cross Station in London, in memory of the victims of the London terrorist bombings. Andrews in Scotland. "The Bouyeri network in the killing of (filmmaker Theo) van Gogh in the Netherlands, the Madrid bombings - all of these investigations have a for- eign component to them, which makes them extremely complex." If the attacks of July 7 and July 21 are linked, they show a worrying degree of preparation by a person or people making use of homegrown rad- icals from two distinct ethnic groups - with three of the four July 7 bombers of Pakistani origin, and at least three of the July 21 suspects with East African roots, Standish said. That ensured that when police focus was on the Pakistani communi- ty after the July 7 attacks, the East African group could still move freely. Associated Press Navy Commander Thomas Graves, dressed in a replica 1813 period uniform, salutes the city of Boston Saturday at the entrance to Boston harbor during a 19-gun salute following a changing of the guard ceremony aboard the U.S.S.

Event planners: Scouts unprepared Associated Press A map of the United States is covered Saturday by thousands of patches donat- ed by scouts at Fort A.P. Hill near Bowling Green, Va. The National Guard hopes to auction off the board and donate the proceeds to the surviving fam- ily members of the Alaska troop mem- bers killed Monday during the National Boy Scout Jamboree at Fort A.P. Hill. Associated Press BOWLING GREEN, Va. - Their motto is: "Be pre- pared." But as the disaster-rid- dled National Boy Scout Jamboree carries on follow- ing five deaths and hun- dreds of heat-related ill- nesses, event planners from across the country are won- dering just how prepared the Scouts were. "That's the part that breaks my heart there are things you can avoid and things you can't," said Phyllis Cambria, an event planner from Boca Raton, Fla., who has written sever- al books on the subject. "This one sounds like it was an avoidable one." On Monday, four Scout leaders were electrocuted in front of several Scouts after they lost control of the towering metal pole at the center of a large, white din- ing tent, sending it toppling into nearby power lines. The day before, a volunteer was taken to a hospital where he died of an appar- ent heart attack On Wednesday, 40,000 Scouting enthusiasts waited hours in the stifling heat for an appearance by President Bush, who ended up post- poning his visit due to the threat of severe thunder- storms. Sun-sick Scouts began collapsing and more than 300 people were treat- ed for heat-related illnesses. The troops involved in the electrocution accident hired a contractor to set up the dining tent The contrac- tors asked the Scout leaders for assistance in erecting the structure directly below a set of power lines. Sam Waltz Jr., a crisis management specialist from Wilmington, Del., said organizers should have laid out a grid map in advance that clearly identified dan- ger areas where power lines hang and planned for tents to be set up far away. Scouting teachings dictate that tents not be erected under trees or power lines, a Jamboree spokesman said. And potential Scout leaders go through rigorous safety training before they join the organization, said Scout leader Kevin Rudden, 51, of Mendon, Mass. "It's the most safety-con- scious, risk-averse organiza- tion I've ever met in my life - there's a policy for every- thing," Rudden said. "That's why it's just surprising that this happened. I mean, it's just counterintuitive to all that you're trained. You can't explain it" Iraq's constitution may be based on Islam Associated Press CAIRO, Egypt The framers of Iraq's constitution appear likely to enshrine Islam as the main basis of law in the coun- try a stronger role than the United States had hoped for and one some Iraqis fear will mean a more fundamentalist regime. A draft of the constitution published last week in the government Al-Sabah newspa- per put Islam as "the main basis" of law. But the constitutional committee made up of Shiites, Kurds and some Sunnis is still haggling over the language. Already, Shiite leaders in some south- ern cities have tried imposing Islamic- based rules, pressuring women to wear headscarves and forcing liquor stores and music shops to close. Fouad Massoum, the Kurdish deputy. head of the committee, said it will. discuss. the role of Islam in meetings Sunday "We, in the Kurdish coalition, want Islam to be one of the sources of legisla- tion," he said. Astronauts engage in spacewalk Equipment repair methods tested in open space Associated Press SPACE CENTER, Houston - Two astronauts floated out of shuttle Discovery for the mission's first spacewalk Saturday and tested repair techniques developed after the Columbia tragedy more than two years ago. "What a view," said Soichi Noguchi as he emerged from the linked shuttle and interna- tional space station about 222 miles over central Asia. : The astronauts worked side- by-side in Discovery's open cargo bay, testing the repair methods on a variety of delib- erately damaged tile and car- bon samples brought to space. It took up nearly half of the six- hour, 50-minute spacewalk Robinson and Noguchi, a Japanese astronaut, worked with tools similar to an oversized caulk gun Wh and large putty knives to apply an experi- VKie mental material to the sample tiles that NASA hopes can be used in future mis- sions to repair cracks No in the delicate carbon panels lining the shut- astronaut tale's wings. space The experimental material can be used to repair cracks or coating loss up to four inches long, but won't work on holes such as the one blown into Columbia's left wing by a 1.67 pound chunk of foam in 2003.

They did a little rewiring to restore power to a gyroscope that stopped working four months ago because of a popped circuit breaker, re- placed a broken global positioning antenna, and carried in a pair of experiment pack- ages that had been mounted on the outpost's exterior. "Great job. Everything was just perfect. Extra stuff got done," Mission Control radioed. "You guys get some rest." Two more spacewalks are planned during the coming week Associated Press WASHINGTON The Central Asian nation of Uzbekistan has ended its agree- ment allowing U.S. military air- craft and personnel to use an air base that has been an important hub for American military oper- ations in Afghanistan, adminis- tration officials said Saturday. No reason Uzbekistan was evicting U.S. forces from Karshi- Khanabad air base, commonly referred to as K2, was offered by either the State Department or the Defense Department The Washington Post, which first reported the eviction notice, said no reason was given by Uzbekistan and that U.S. forces would have six months to leave. The New York Times report- ed Saturday on its Web site that a State Department official cited the abrupt action as a response to a United Nations operation to.take hundreds of Uzbek refugees from the region.

Toumbis MD, PhD Fellowship Trained In Spine SMinimally Invasive Surgery *Artificial Disc Replacement * Laser Disc Surgery * Cervical & Lumbar Spine Your Birthday: Overall conditions look quite hope- ful for you in the year ahead and seem to offer sub- stantial promise. However, you must have staying power when you hit any bumps in the road, and adhere to sensible solutions. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Unfortunately, your social behavior will be closely scrutinized today by someone who is less than an admirer. This person is hoping to get the goods on you to undermine you in some way. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You have all the requirements necessary today to be successful if and when confronted by challenge, yet instead of stiffening your back and digging in, you may ease off and do nothing. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) The greatest challenge you may have to face today is to be able to recognize what and who you really are, and what you can do about it without being overwhelmed by imaginary inner fears. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Instead of attempting to force yourself into the picture with a person or group who you believe has something good going for them, wait until you're invited in. Don't embarrass yourself. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) The ambiguity that you may feel about yourself at this time makes it difficult for you to deal with others today. One part of you is holding back, while the other wants to move forward. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You must perse- vere today without being reluctant or hesitant about what you're doing if you want to see success. Once you fall behind, it'll be difficult to revive momentum. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Persons who lack substance or who treat serious matters frivolously should be avoided today. Their attitude and ideas could influence your thinking and lead you totally off course. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) Your ambitions are easily aroused today, but the trouble is that this may only be momentary. Instead of pursuing them, you may look for plenty of excuses to postpone what needs to doing. Aries (March 21-April 19) Your inner energies may be struggling to assert themselves today without much success, and consequently you could end up engaging in unproductive acts merely for the sake of expediency. Taurus (April 20-May 20) Financial matters must not be treated in a careless fashion today. If you are negligent or slovenly in the handling of your funds, you could end up losing a lot of money instead of making gains. Gemini (May 21-June 20) This could be some- what of an irritating or frustrating day for you, because it may seem to you that all that you try to do is blocked not by others, but by your own feelings of inadequacy. Cancer (June 21-July 22) Steer clear of getting involved in do-it-yourself projects about which you have little training or knowledge, whether it's for your- self or for another. You could really mess up the job.

Senate clears emergency vet budget increase Associated Press WASHINGTON The Senate sent President Bush a $1.5 billion increase to the budget for veterans health care programs Friday as it cleared the first spending bill for the fiscal year, beginning Oct. 1. The move ends an embar- rassing episode for the admin- istration, which repeatedly miscalculated the needs of vet- erans and used outdated budg- et models when fashioning estimates for Congress. The funds, which close a The me gap for the cur- rent budget passed year, were added to a $26.3 99-1 V billion bill for next year's budget for the Interior Department. The measure passed by a 99- 1 vote. The underlying budget bill generally fits within Bush's budget outlines as it cuts almost $700 million from cur- rent levels. But when Congress returns from its summer recess in September, lawmakers are sure to test the president's resolve to cut almost 1 percent from domestic agencies whose budgets Congress funds each year. The extra veterans funds were needed after the Veterans Affairs Department underestimated the number of veterans who would seek care as well as increased costs of treatment and long-term care. Initially, the VA said it faced about a $1 billion shortfall that could be managed by tapping reserve funds and its budget for infrastructure improvements. That did not fly with law- makers, who insisted on adding emergency funds on top of the $28 billion appropriated last year for veterans' medical needs. The House originally i V v passed legislation accepting the $1 billion estimate, but the ink on that bill was barely dry before the VA upped its esti- mate to $1.3 billion. The Senate twice unani- mously voted for the $1.5 bil- lion figure. The House decided to go along. The VA's estimating models for the original budget submis- sion did not take into account the additional cost of caring for veterans injured in Iraq and Afghanistan. Demand for health care serv- ices has increased sure by more than 5 percent over last by a year. The VA origi- nally predicted tote. growth of about 2 percent. The $1.5 billion is for the budget year ending Sept. 30. Bush has asked for an additional $2 bil- lion, for next year on top of his February budget request. In passing the Interior bill, lawmakers approved a signifi- cant cut to the budget for the Environmental Protection Agency, mostly from an EPA clean-water fund that gives grants to states. The agency was also given instructions regarding upcom- ing rules on human tests used to consider permits for pesti- cides. Pregnant women, infants and children could not be intentionally dosed with pesticides when judging pesti- cide permit applications. The underlying Interior measure also contains $10 mil- lion to subsidize a memorial to Martin Luther King Jr. on the National Mall on a 4-acre site next to the Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial. The funds were sought by Sen. Robert Byrd, D-WVa., and Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Thad Cochran, R-Miss. ENROLL NOW FOR VOLUNTARY PRE-K IN YOUR AREA!

You may not be able to tell the difference, but the presi- dents depicted on Mount Rushmore have had their faces washed for the first time since they were carved in stone more than 65 years ago. Workers removed decades of dirt, grime and invasive lichens, which had begun dig- ging roots into the stone images of Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt. The three-week-long project was expected to end Thursday or Friday, according to Duane Bubac, Mount Rushmore facil- ities manager. The faces were designed by sculptor Gutzon Borglum, who began working on them in .1927. Roosevelt's image, the last one to be carved, was ded- icated in 1939. This was the first scrubbing the monument has ever gotten. The power-washing was donat- ed by a German manufacturer of cleaning machines, Alfred Karcher GmbH & Co. KG. The company has carried out complimentary cleaning on 80 projects around the world, including washing the base of the Statue of Liberty two years ago. While the washing will stabi- lize and preserve the monu- ment, "I don't think the aver- age visitor will be able to tell the difference," said Bubac. The technicians were har- nessed to ropes anchored on the monument as they climbed past eye sockets as tall as they are and tucked themselves e lX beneath enormous nostrils to spray and blast the dirt away. No chemicals were used, just pressurized water of more than 200 degrees that ran in dark wet streaks down the famous heads before drying. TRIPS Continued from Page 12A Tickets are $35 to $95.

Results of the cleaning are subtle but evident, as workers had nearly completed Washington, somewhat completed Jefferson and barely started on Roosevelt, right, in this photo.

"I used to go back there with my poker-playing friends and eat really good food," drummer Ronnie Vannucci told the maga- zine.

Hotel childcare NEW YORK When you check into a family resort and leave your children with the resident baby sit- ter or kids' club, how do you know if the caregiver can be trusted? The August issue of Conde Nast Traveler asks that question in a piece called "Who Is Minding the Kids?" The article features a checklist of things to ask about when booking a hotel or resort where childcare is offered. A phone call to the director of children's activities at the property should answer many of your ques- tions. First, ask how the staff is screened and trained. Ideally, all staff working with children will have undergone background checks. They should also be trained in first aid and CPR, and where appropri- ate, as lifeguards, according to the magazine. At least one staff member should be formally trained in early childhood education or develop- ment. If you're going outside the U.S., make sure at least one per- son on the staff is fluent in English.

Shou By Dec. 31, 2007, a valid emerged United States passport will be required for all air, sea and land border cross- ings. Further information can be received by phoning the Passports located under U.S. Government offices in the phone book or go on line http://travel.state.gov to get more information, and you can always check with your friend- ly travel agent. The cost of the passport is about $95, depend- ing on a few things. I remember my first passport application in 1966, the cost was $25, then $40, $60, and now about $95. However, passports are good for 10 years, and are the best identification. However, it is as valuable as a piece of costly jewelry so always keep it in a safe place. Frank and I always recom- mended our people to Xerox the face page of the passport. In case you lose the passport, at least you'll have the infor- mation required for reissuing another. I cannot stress enough how valuable and necessary your passport is. On all of the trips planned for our travelers, we gave them a sheet listing the items needed for their trip, called Equip for Your Trip, which was invaluable to them as they packed and checked the items required. I would research the weath- er, the events planned, what to look for, purchase, etc. All appreciated this informa- to tion, which to made the trip more exciting f yet comfort- able. th It's a good idea to leave a )d copy of your itinerary with your family, or, good friend or neighbor should an emergency. e. arise. Time was when we used traveler's checks, and sometimes still do; however, ATMs are so wonder- ful since they seem to be every- where. Do be careful when you use them, because there are unscrupulous people watch- ing, including young teenagers who are very good at pick - pocketing. And, of course, credit cards are a great big help on your trip. However, keep track of your purchases so that upon your return you can check them with your incoming statements. Overseas, I always mark'in pencil what the cost comes to in American dollars. I like to know how much theJtem cost me in U.S. dollars for compari- son. More, next week.

I bought a 5-gallon drum of olives, a 16-pound box of pretzels, 10 pounds of Parmesan cheese, a keg of mustard, 300 bagels and a little pasta. I could- n't fit it all in the car, so I had to make a second trip to pick up the pasta. I'm kind of glad they were out of that ice cream Sue likes because it only comes in two sizes tanker truck or container ship. We used to have a hard time get- ting it all in the freezer. Until I went to _ an even bigger big-box store and bought a couple of extra freezers. Why they call them big-box stores , I'll never know. They don't put any- thing in a box for you. You have to do . it yourself. You have to check the stuff J Ij out yourself, you have to lug it to the .car yourself they even want you to bring the empty cart back by yourself. I'm saving a ton of money, but my back is killing me. What's that going to cost to fix? I'll have to wait until they have big box emergency rooms to find out. They'll have a self-service X- ray machine and a do-it-yourself traction bed. You'll cook your own food and do your own nurs- ing. The good news is that it will cut your med- ical costs by a third. Not that you will live long enough to run up a very big bill. Do-it-yourself shopping has become a huge trend. They opened a big discount supermarket near my house called "U-Bag It, U Save." Just by bagging my own groceries I could look forward to huge savings on my weekly grocery bill. I assumed they would cut corners in other ways, too. One day I was standing in aisle No. 6 look- ing for the nutrition label on a bag of turkey jerky. I couldn't find the nutrition information, but I did find the price tag. For all the hype, their stuff wasn't that much cheaper than the place that puts your stuff in bags for you. "U-Bag It" probably saved more money by not having to buy the giant neon letters "Y" and "0" in their logo than they did by not hiring baggers. Imagine how cheap "U-Bag It's" food would be if they got rid of the manager instead of the bag- gers? Still, I'll keep shopping here until some- one opens a place called "U-Price It, U-Save." So I'm looking and I'm looking and I'm turn- ing the bag of turkey jerky over and over and I can't find that little box that says how much fat is in it, how many calories it has per serving, how much soluble "S fiber there is, how much riboflavin it contains. Nothing. I can't find it any- where. I am very worried about my soluble fiber and my riboflavin I worry because I'm 55 years old and I .. j haven't got a clue as to what they are. r I was just about to rip it open and taste some when I see a kid with a label gun hanging from his belt and ask him where is the nutrition infor- mation. "There's no nutrition label on it because it's for dogs." "Well, of course it's for dogs," I lied, "But I'm worried about Fido's trans-fatty acid. I'm not. sure he gets enough." Label gun kid gives me one of those "anything-you-say, grandpa" looks and keeps walking. '"Animal hater," I stage whis- per after him. When he was out of sight I put it back. We don't have a dog. We have a cat. The cat loves tuna. Where on earth would a 10-pound cat ever acquire a taste for tuna? Tunas are huge fish. And you have to go out in a boat to catch them. When would my cat have gone deep-sea fishing? Even if she had, she'd sleep right through it. Yesterday Sue was going to the big-box store for more supplies. I told her to put kitty litter on the list. She said, "Do you' want a pallet full or the giant size? I don't think I can lift the big one by myself."

When our oldest two were very young, my husband and I asked my brother, "Ned," and his wife to be the guardians of our children, even though they lived in anoth- er state. We chose them over my sis- ter, "Dotty," because at the time, Dotty was engaged to a man no one ! in the family liked. Their engage- l ment was subsequently called off, and she met and married another . man we liked much better. When my husband and I redid our wills five years ago, we decided to switch guardianship to Dotty to spare our children the possibility of a move in the event of our deaths. Plus, my in-laws live in the same gen- eral area, and we felt they could A keep close ties with our kids and AN help my sister. MAUL Now, five years later, Dotty has children of her own, and my husband and I no longer think she and her husband are the best guardians for ours. Ned and his wife have chil- dren, too, now, and are doing a fine job raising them. And we have since moved across the country and are equally far from everyone. As you may have guessed, we would like to switch guardianship back to my-brother and his wife. The question is, how do I do this without hurt- ing Dotty's feelings? Any ideas on how to have this delicate conversation? Wanting To Hurt No One Dear Wanting: Is Ned's situation more finan- cially stable than Dotty's? Are the ages of your brother's children more compatible with yours? Their gender? Your brother's views on school- ing? Religion? Discipline? Any of these are valid, and perfectly understandable, reasons for switching. Find something logical and inoffensive, and then tell Dotty about your decision, adding that it's possible you will change your mind again when the kids are older. Then let's hope the guardianship is never needed.

Despite several breaks in the showers, attempts to dry the rain-soaked racetrack were wasted when an additional rain band moved into the area. Although not as heavy as ear- lier showers, the rain came and track officials made the decision to call the night off anyway. Rain checks will be honored for the next two weeks. Next week's program includes the PGB Legends Cars, Outlaw Modified Series, Late Models, Super Stock 50, Hobby Stocks, Thunder Stocks and 4-cylinder Bombers. The USA Sprints return on August 13 with the Modifieds, Sportsman, Mini Stock, Hobby Stock, Thunder Stock, 4-cylinder Bombers and Figure 8. Crocker beats Phelps in butterfly MONTREAL lan Crocker put the Athens Olympics behind him and Michael Phelps, too. Crocker broke his own world record in the 100-meter butterfly Saturday and turned a much- anticipated rematch with Phelps into a rout. The two Americans were vir- tually even off the blocks, but Crocker already had a sizable lead when their heads emerged from the water. He was about a half-body length ahead at the turn, and didn't have to worry about Phelps making one of his patented charges in the final 50 Smeters.. With arms pumping furiously, Crocker stretched out his :advantage all the way to the wall. He touched in 50.40 sec- onds easily eclipsing the record of 50.76 that he set in beating Phelps at last year's U.S Olympic trials. Cameron upset by trade talk With Boston still discussing a three-team trade that would send Manny Ramirez to the New York Mets, the Red Sox removed theAll-Star outfielder from their game against the Minnesota Twins on Saturday night. An official involved in the talks said Saturday evening that the sides were still far apart in the much-discussed, three-team trade, which also involved the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. "After meeting with Manny Ramirez, manager Terry Francona made the decision shortly before game time that, under the circumstances, it was in the best interests of the club and of Manny that he not be in the starting lineup tonight," the Red Sox said in a statement. New York Mets outfielder Mike Cameron said he was upset by talk that he could be included in a trade for the Red Sox All-Star slugger. The Mets would also include outfielder Lastings Milledge, the 12th overall pick in the 2003 amateur draft. Devil Rays general manager Chuck LaMar said he expected talks could continue until Sunday afternoon's 4 p.m. deadline for trades without waivers. "We have had discussions with both teams, not only in a Combined deal, but separate deals with each one of those teams," he said in Tampa. From staff, wire reports Cunningham scores 2 - 4 CR grad leads MLS all-stars Associated Press COLUMBUS, Ohio A for- mer Columbus Crew striker ran wild in Major League Soccer's All-Star game, but it wasn't the one everyone expected. Jeff Cunningham scored twice in the final five minutes Saturday to help the MLS All- Stars defeat England's Fulham FC 4-1. Cunningham came on as a Fulham's Steed Malbranque, right, falls to the ground as Colorado Rapids' Jeff Cunningham dribbles the ball away from him during the sec- ond half of the MLS All-Star Game Saturday.

Four minutes later, New England's Shalrie Joseph passed to Cunningham, who dribbled in and beat goalkeep- er Jaroslav Drobny. The crowd of 23,309 roared at the late goals from Cunningham, a longtime Crew standout who went to Colorado in the offseason. "The fans deserved it. They've been supportive of me over the years. They came out and showed me some love today," he said. By contrast, the much-hyped return of former Crew striker Brian McBride didn't pan out. McBride started as Fulham's captain but wasn't a factor. He and Fulham's other American, Carlos Bocanegra, came out 15 minutes into the second half. The MLS All-Stars struck 23 minutes in, when Landon Donovan wound up with the ball following a Fulham turnover. Donovan slipped a pass into the box past U.S. national team teammate Bocanegra to New England for- ward Taylor Twellman, who slid to put a foot on it and beat goalkeeper Mark Crossley. . Drobny entered the game when Crossley left with a knee injury a few minutes later. Donovan and Twellman nearly connected again four minutes after the goal, but Twellman's shot from the right side flew wide left Twellman, whose shot in the second half hit the near post, was named MVP Please see ',/Page 3B No surprise here Crosby top pick in NHL draft Associated Press OTTAWA Welcome to the NHL, Sidney Crosby As expected, the Pittsburgh Penguins took the teenage phe- nom from Canada with the No. 1 pick on Saturday "This is amazing," Crosby said. "I'm just really relieved. It's unbelievable. I'm so happy right now." The arrival of the young superstar, who's already been compared to Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux, is just what the NHL needed after the lockout that erased the 2004-05 season.

Athletics 9, Tigers 5 OAKLAND Calif. -When the Oakland Athletics play well, it's usually their pitching that gets the credit. During this two-month stretch of domi- nance, the A's are winning even when their top pitchers struggle. Jay Payton hit a grand slam and drove in five runs to help Barry Zito win his seventh straight start and the Oakland Athletics win for the 10th time in 11 games, 9-5 over the Detroit Tigers on Saturday. Rangers 3, Blue Jays 2 TORONTO Gary Matthews Jr. did not even know his play allowed the go-ahead run to score.

The New York Yankees' patient hitters only made things harder on him. Hideki Matsui's two-run double in the ninth inning capped a big comeback, and New York took advantage of four walks by Rodriguez to beat the Los Angeles Angels 8- 7 Saturday. 'That's what we do best We take our walks, and eventually somebody's got to be pitched to," Jason Giambi said. Bernie Williams and Giambi homered for the Yankees, who got a stellar debut from starter Shawn Chacon and defeated the Angels for only the third time in nine meet- ings this season. Juan Rivera connected for the AL West leaders and Paul Byrd threw seven solid innings, but Los Angeles' normally depend- able bullpen blew a 7-3 lead in the last two innings perhaps Thursday's 18-inning loss in Toronto took a toll. Giambi's two-run shot off Jake Woods in the eighth cut it to 7-5, and Angels manager Mike Scioscia brought in Rodriguez with one out "We were a little bit short today Frankie was a little bit extended, and you've got to give them credit, it just got away from him," Scioscia said. "He's our guy, and he had enough in him to get through that inning." Pitching for the third straight day, Rodriguez got out of the eighth with no trou- ble but began to fade in the ninth. The hard- throwing right-hander walked his first two batters before striking out Robinson Cano. Gary Sheffield then walked, and another free pass to Alex Rodriguez made it 7-6. Francisco Rodriguez (2-2) threw his 36th pitch of the game to Matsui, who lined it into left-center. It was Rodriguez's fourth blown save in 29 chances this season.

A prolific scorer, Crosby won nearly every trophy the last two seasons in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. He had 66 goals and 102 assists in 62 games, after a rook- ie campaign that featured 54 goals and 81 assists in 59 games, and was the Canadian major junior player of the year both seasons. "He creates a lot of excite- ment," said Lemieux, Crosby's boss and possible linemate with the Penguins. "He has all the tools to be a great player He sees the ice well, he's a great skater. He says he needs to work on his shot, but it looks pretty good to me." Crosby will share the spot- light in Pittsburgh with Lemieux, the No. 1 pick in 1984, and will be looked upon to res- cue the franchise that hasn't made the playoffs since 2001 and desperately needs a new arena in which to play Pittsburgh's luck is already changing as the Penguins won last week's draft lottery that determined the picking order of the first round. "I'm not really thinking about it right now," Crosby said of the expectations. "I want to come and play in the NHL next year That's my goal, that's my focus right now. I'm going to put everything into that and try to move on from there."

COLLEGE Continued from Page 1B with 33 total assists and 13 steals. "As a freshman you usually don't get a lot of playing time, so it was great to get in there," Baize said. Usually confident before games, Baize said that he became nervous before his first college contest. His par- ents and his high school coach were in the crowd, and after the first tip-off, he was just in awe of college basketball. But-he took to the court early as a reserve and drained his first college shot, a three-point- er, which took care of the but- terflies, he said. For both players, the biggest part of adjusting to the college game was the conditioning. Training for the season is a year-round process that could wear out the unprepared. Baize played for a team that placed an emphasis on a fast game that wore down the com- petition. Galloway started practice almost immediately after arriving at the school, beginning a regimen that sometimes involved waking up at 5 a.m., and running several miles on the track But all the work was fine with both play- ers. "It wasn't that big a deal," Galloway said. "It was still bas- ketball, which I love." So they spent much of their first year learning. Baize MLS Continued from Page 1B Fulham tied the game in the 36th minute when Chris Albright was whistled for knocking down Luis Boa Morte in the penalty box as Boa Morte dribbled toward goal. ."I know I touched him. I don't think I fouled him," said Albright, an L.A. Galaxy defender. Claus Jensen's ensuing penalty kick caught keeper Matt Reis moving the wrong way. That was Fulham's lone good chance of the first half, howev- er, as the MLS side owned the midfield with Donovan and New England teammates Clint Dempsey and Joseph control- ling possession. ..... BASEBALL Continued from Page 1B childhood dreams will culmi- nate with the greatest of hon- ors induction Sunday into the Hall of Fame. Also being enshrined are San. Diego Padres announcer and former New York Yankees second baseman Jerry Coleman, and longtime writer and broadcast- er Peter Gammons. ". _The Hall of Fame is not something an athlete can set as a goal," said Boggs, a five- time AL batting champion for the Boston Red Sox who became just the 41st player elected on his first chance. "It's something that evolves." For both Boggs and Sandberg, it evolved slowly at first. Boggs, who batted left-hand- ed, was a scrawny kid who did- n't attract much attention even though he finished his senior year at Plant High in Tampa, on a 26-for-33. tear. He was drafted in the seventh round _by the Red Sox and then spent five-plus seasons in the minors. Although he won one batting title and finished among the top four hitters four other times, the Sox didn't even invite him to spring training after he barely missed winning the batting title while playing third base for Triple-A Pawtucket in 1980. "The only thing that I was told by the Red Sox was that I don't hit for power and that I play in a power position and ,that I wasn't going to be able to play in the big leagues if I don't hit for power," said Boggs, who also played for the Yankees and Tampa Bay, retiring with 3,010 hits. "I forced their hand in 1981 when I led the league in hitting and wasn't called up in September. They had to make a decision on me there." The Sox chose to keep him. Boggs learned his inside-out swing from his father, Winfield, a fast-pitch softball star. He went on to hit .300 or higher 15 times, finished with a .328 career average and was the only player in the 20th cen- tury with seven straight 200-hit seasons. "It was just one of those things, when someone tells you can't do something, you go out and work twice as hard and try to hone your craft," attended basketball camps at the University of Florida this summer, playing with some of Florida's elite. Galloway has continued his training, and both players expect to do much better next season. "It showed me what I have to do to get better," Baize said of his Florida camps. "They're a lot bigger at UF, (playing against them) is like climbing a tree." "I'm working hard, just like I was last year," Galloway said. "I want to contribute a little more. It's going to be a battle in practice, and I want to earn my playing time. You're open to so much more in college. There are just so many people who know the game of basketball." Both players still keep in touch when they can, even occasionally meeting at CFCC to play basketball with friends. They both see the differences in each other's games, but have also seen how much each play- er has grown. "I saw some of his stuff in his game that I would really like to have in my game," Galloway said of Baize. "He can jump a lot higher and shoot a lot better, but if I get the ball in my hands, it's going to be about me," Baize said. Galloway is more of a pure shooter, while Baize's strengths include ball control and guiding his team down the court. Oddly, they have never played each other one-on one. "That would be a pretty good game," Baize laughed. MLS took back the lead in the 56th minute when Dallas' Ronnie O'Brien deflected a shot from Dempsey just inside the left post for the score. "The defender cleared it out and my eyes just lit up when I saw it falling down (at my feet)," Dempsey said. "Certainly in the second half, you could see we were nowhere near as fit as the MLS boys," Fulham coach Chris Coleman said, "They're a good team, and I think they got stronger and stronger as the game went on, and we got weaker and weaker." Dempsey nearly put the MLS on the board in the 3rd minute, controlling a high ball with his back to the goal, then turning and firing from about 8 yards out Bocanegra stepped into an open goal mouth and cleared it for Fulham. said Boggs, a notorious crea- ture of habit who believed his game-day rituals, such as eat- ing chicken before every game, contributed to his suc- cess. "Honing my craft was the ability to get on base, hit for high average, and score runs. That was my game. I knew I could hit a line drive the majority of the time when I swung." Still, for all his hitting accomplishments, Boggs treas- ures the two Gold Gloves he won with the Yankees. "I always hated hearing, 'Well, he can't play third. He's a good hitter, but he's not a very good third baseman,"' Boggs said. '"And the only way you can get a label as a com- plete ballplayer is to go out and win a Gold Glove. It took a lot of hard work When Don Mattingly called me that night at 12:30 in the morning and congratulated me on winning the Gold Glove, I just started crying right in the middle of the bed. I never cried after winning a batting title." While Boggs was a star kick- er in high school and could have played college football, Sandberg was all but signed, sealed and delivered to be the starting quarterback at Washington State instead of a minor league shortstop. "I signed a letter of intent I had all my classes picked, and I had a roommate," Sandberg said. "All of my college trips my senior year were college trips for football. I was highly recruited. I think I even had a backpack and a bathrobe that said Washington State on it, so I was ready to go." Apparently, big league exec- utives figured the same he wasn't picked until the 20th round of the 1978 amateur draft by the Philadelphia Phillies. Although the 6-foot-2 Sandberg began at short, he eventually was. switched to second and like Boggs, had to endure a label of his own. "I heard a lot of talk about being too tall to play the posi- tion how can you move around, turn the double play? - because I wasn't the proto- type that everybody was used to as a second baseman," said Sandberg, who was traded in January 1982 by the Phillies with Larry Bowa to the Chicago Cubs for Ivan DeJesus. "It felt like I was fighting that a little bit" SPORTS I 4B SUNDAY.~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ji3.205ScTSCrwCoNI(F)HRNJI Injury troubles plague Taylor Matt Jones is Jags'only holdout Associated Press JACKSONVILLE The Jacksonville Jaguars opened training camp Saturday without first-round draft pick Matt Jones and with running back Fred Taylor nursing his surgi- cally repaired left knee. The first problem could be fixed soon. The second might take a while. Jones, a quarterback at Arkansas who is making the transition to receiver, was the team's lone no-show when play- ers reported to camp Friday. A lengthy holdout could hin- der his progress, especially since Jones is switching posi- tions and learning a new offense. Jones, the 21st overall selection, also missed most of mini-camp and several summer workouts with a sprained left hamstring. "I think any time a rookie is not here, it's not to his benefit," coach Jack Del Rio said. "But you know it happens every- where every year There is no sense in getting bent out of shape about it I think it's to his advantage to be here, and we hope to get him here soon." Negotiations have been slow, mostly because none of the six players taken ahead of Jones has signed and neither has the. pick below him. Jones' contract will be based primarily on what other players drafted around him get "Everybody on this team has been through a contract thing, so you understand the process," said quarterback Byron Leftwich, who had a 19-day holdout before reporting to camp in 2003. "Hopefully, he can get out here soon. But I understand that sometimes (holdouts) are long. Hopefully it's not long." Taylor's rehab might take more time. The eighth-year pro had sur- gery in January to repair two partially torn ligaments in his left knee and was limited Saturday. He cut gingerly, ran with a noticeable limp and wore a pro- tective knee brace. He partici- pated in most team drills, but was admittedly tentative during them. "I thought I made some pretty good strides," Taylor said. "Of course, I need to get better in order to be where I'm used to or where I left off. I had a pretty severe injury, but I'm making strides and hopefully this thing will turn around soon. "I'm upbeat and I'm doing everything I can to get back and be the best I can be to help this team. I'll be fine. I just need to work" Taylor, who will practice just once to start training camp, insisted he will be ready for the season opener Sept 11 against Seattle. But he declined to offer a date for his return to full speed. "I don't have a timetable," he said. "I won't put a certain amount of days or weeks or whatever on it I'm not doing that" Taylor injured his knee Dec. 19 against Green Bay and missed the final two games of the season. He had started 46 consecutive games before the injury. Del Rio said he would like to get Taylor some carries in the preseason, something he hasn't done the last two years because of other injuries. Taylor missed two preseason games in 2003 and carried just seven times for 33 yards. He missed another two preseason games last year and ran six times for 57 yards. "The reason we tune up any- body that's a proven star is to knock the rust off, play at game speed, those types of things," Del Rio said. "Obviously, the last two years he's been very limited (in the preseason) ... If we can get him healthy enough to get him a little action in camp, that would be ideal." Darius signs 3-year deal JACKSONVILLE Donovin Darius finally got a long-term deal. The hard-hitting safety signed a three-year contract extension with the Jacksonville Jaguars on Friday, giving him the deal he desperately sought while being designated the team's franchise player for three consecutive years. Darius will get the same $4.97 million he was due this year as a franchise player, and without going into specifics, indicated he will take less the next three years. Phone messages left with his agent, Tom Condon, were not immediately returned. "I'm excited about it because I have the opportunity to play my career here where it all began," Darius wrote on the team's Web site message board Friday. "The two sides sat down and expressed their desire and what they needed for it to be done and that was it. The deal that is great for me and fair for the organization." Darius' desire to stay in Jacksonville through the 2008 sea- son is a big turnaround from his feelings when the Jags gave him the franchise tag again in February. The franchise rule allows teams to keep one player off the free- agent market in exchange for a one-year tender worth the average of the top five players at his posi- tion. If a player doesn't sign, the only way he can leave is if another team is willing to part with two first- round draft picks. Darius signed the tender despite his displeasure with the franchise tag. Redskins have work to do Gibbs revises offense after tough first year Associated Press ASHBURN, Va. Ouch! What a stinger Joe Gibbs got when he looked up at the tel- evision during the NFL draft There was one of his most trusted players, tackle Jon Jansen, telling a national audience that the Washington Redskins last year had a "1992 offense." "Oh, I had a reaction to it," said Gibbs, letting out one of his trademark high-pitched chuckles. "I never said any- thing to Jon, but if he winds up second-string, he'll know why." Gibbs didn't need anyone to remind him that his first season back in the NFL after a 12-yeir retirement was a flop, that the offense ranked 30th and the record was a career-worst 6-10 for Gibbs. He has spent the offseason meticulously adjusting not overhauling, mind you the offense, looking to add 21st century excitement worthy of his Hall of Fame legacy. "That stung all of us who work on it, the fact that we were unproductive," Gibbs said. "You can't kid the facts. We were at the bottom of the league on offense. And as much as anybody, I'm respon- sible for that." The public gets its first look at Gibbs' tinkerings when the Redskins open training camp on Monday, the welcome start of real football after a drama-filled and sometimes embarrassing off- season. For the first time since Dan Snyder bought the team in 1999, there is little hype about the team and even less expectation of con- tending for the NFC East title. Instead, everyone wants to know about Sean Taylor's legal troubles, LaVar Arrington's state of mind, how "core Redskins" Fred Smoot and Antonio Pierce were allowed to get away in free agency, the health of first-round draft pick Carlos Rogers, Gibbs' apparent undermining of his starting quarterback and whether the 64-year-old coach can still rally players like the savior he was billed to be. As for the last question, the players have no choice right now but to say, "Yes." "Coach Gibbs took that per- sonally, to have our offense ranked as low as it was," run- ning back Clinton Portis said. "He knew he was a much bet- ter strategizer than that, a much better planner than that He wanted to put this thing together structurally to Joe Gibbs, Hall of Fame coach and NASCAR regrouped for hopefully a better second season wit suit him and us, so I think we're going to be much more exciting." Gibbs' comeback last year was an eye opener for those who had only seen him from afar. He operates in a very narrow circle. He treats like gold those inside that circle - close friends, assistant coaches and family members - but can be oblivious and even unintentionally disre- spectful to everyone else. Fans, reporters and even Redskins Park employees learned the hard way that snubs from Gibbs are just part of the package from a man who is so narrowly focused. "I'll come into the house, and there'd be something like that on the wall," said Gibbs, pointing to a large dec- orative rug hanging in his office. "And I'll go for a day, and (wife) Pat'll go 'I don't believe this. You didn't even notice that.' "To a certain extent I am that way. Sometimes I think I'm simple minded, but I guess different people are different ways. I think I prob- ably have a way of getting stuck on one thing, I guess you could say."

Arringtc assuming he speaks, will be scrutinized following his off- season tirade at Gibbs over the way the linebacker's knee injury was handled. No. 9 overall pick Rogers won't be able to practice much early on because he hurt his ankle recently work- ing out at Auburn. Anointed quarterback Patrick Ramsey will be looking over his shoul- der at another first-round pick, quarterback Jason Campbell, even though Gibbs claims Campbell's presence "does not affect Patrick in any way." '"Patrick's been up here for i a while now ... I -would say - that he needs to take this thing and go with it now," Gibbs said. But what about the offense? That's supposed to be where Gibbs really shines. Gibbs says the changes will be subtle. He will still focus first on protecting the quar- terback, but he hopes to com- plete more downfield passes with a new receiving corps. that includes speedsters Santana Moss, David Patten and Antonio Brown. SRunning plays have been redesigned to give Portis more room to run, treating him as the agile back he is rather than a bruiser Gibbs s,, also will use the shotgun for the first time.

Crinus COUNmY (FL) CHROmCICL 4$ SUNDAYJULY 31, 2005 SPORTS SUNDAY, Jui.Y 31, 2005 5B Singh matches mark Associated Press GRAND BLANC, Mich. Vijay Singh quickly turned a showdown between the world's top two golfers into a rout. Singh started the third round of the Buick Open one stroke ahead of Tiger Woods, then birdied the first three holes while Woods bogeyed Nos. 2-4. Singh matched the tournament record of 7 under on the front nine and closed with a 63 Saturday, matching the event's 54-hole record of 22-under 194. If Singh holds onto his five-shot lead he'll be the first three-time champion at the Buick Open, a tournament that started in 1958, and the first champion to repeat since Tony Lema in 1965. As great as Singh's round was, it could've been better if his putting was more consistent. He missed short putts for birdie at Nos. 7 and 14 and another for par at the 16th. It still was good enough, how- ever, to tie Kenny Perry's 54-hole tourna- ment record set in 2001. Woods is the top-ranked player in the world, and Singh is No. 2. They have alter- nated positions atop the world ranking for nearly a year. Woods had three straight bogeys - falling seven strokes behind after four holes before finishing 2 under for the round and 14 under for the. tournament, eight shots behind Singh. His 22-foot par putt at the 18th spun around the cup, giv- ing him a fourth bogey." Associated Press Vijay Singh tied the Buick Open's record for 54 holes at 22-under par, shooting a 63 in the third round to take a five-stroke lead into Sunday's final round. Zach Johnson (65) is at 17 under, alone in second place. Johnson won a tournament last year as a 28-year-old rookie and he's 42nd on the money list this year with three top-10 finishes. Chris DiMarco (66) will begin Sunday's final round seven shots back. Singh began the week with three victo- ries, the same total he had entering the 2004 Buick Open. His last victory here started a run of six wins, including the PGA Championship, in eight events en route to player of the year honors. Woods opened at Warwick Hills with a 71 snapping a tournament-record tying streak of eight straight rounds in the 60s - then vaulted into contention on Friday with an 11 under, his best round in rela- tion to par. Woods is playing for the first time since winning the British Open two weeks ago, and two weeks before the PGA Championship, where he'll shoot for his 11th major title. Jang, Sorenstam battle in Britain Associated Press Six-year veteran Jeong Jang is searching for her first tour win. Jang holds onto five-stroke lead Associated Press SOUTHPORT, England- Jeong Jang has played with Annika Sorenstam before but never with this much at stake. The South Korean will be paired with Sorenstam for the final round of the Women's British Open on Sunday, as she tries to protect a five-stroke lead and win the first tourna- ment of her six-year LPGA career. "I am going to be nervous but not because of being with Annika, just being the leader," said Jang, who shot a 3-under 69 Saturday to move to 13-under 203 for the tournament at Royal Birkdale. "I will think about my golf, not think about Annika." But like it or not, Sorenstam will be there, and she'll be trying for her third major title of the year and 10th overall. She made sure of that by shooting a third- round 66 and pulling into a tie for second with Cristie Kerr (69) at 8 under "We will see what happens," said the Swede, who hasn't had a bogey since the 13th hole in the opening round. "There's a lot of golf holes out there left to be played and birdie opportuni- ties. I am very happy with my round today and it was my best golf of the week" Sorenstam and Jang were paired together at the ShopRite LPGA Classic in June. '"Annika won that event," Jang said. "I finished tied for fifth." Jang, who began the day with a four-stroke lead, provided a few chances for those chasing her to make up some ground. She bogeyed the opening hole before recovering with five birdies. She just missed anoth- er birdie on the 18th when her 10-foot putt stopped inches short of the cup. She has the best score through 54 holes since the tour- nament became a major five years ago. Behind Sorenstam and Kerr are five players at 7-under 209. One of them is Michelle Wie, the 15-yeaf-old amateur who is playing her last tournament before returning to high school. Stadler, Roberts tied at Senior Open Associated Press KETTERING, Ohio Craig Stadler made a spectacular bunker shot on the final, hdle and went on to make a birdie, moving into a tie for the lead with Loren Roberts on Saturday after three rounds of the U.S. Senior Open. Stadler had pulled his drive into the bunker left of the fair- way on the dogleg par-4, but was able to muscle 7-iron a shot out of the sand from 153 yards that ended up just 4 feet from the pin. He made the birdie putt to cap a 2-under 69. Roberts also shot a 69 to share the top spot at 11-under 202, highlighting his round by spin- ning in a wedge at the 10th hole for an eagle. The co-leaders were three shots clear of the field, with Raymond Floyd winner of the last major event at NCR Country Club, the 1969 PGA Championship at 205 along with D.A. Weibring. The 62-year- old Floyd turned back the clock with a 69 that included four birdies and two bogeys. Weibring had a 68. There were numerous ster- ling shots and as many pratfalls for most of the contenders. None was more dramatic than the disaster Tom Watson had at the sixth green. Alone in the lead, Watson hit his second shot on the par-5, 549- yard hole through the green and into a back trap. He blasted out to 12 feet and seemed to have a good shot at birdie. But he rolled his birdie putt 2 feet past, then missed the comebacker badly, rolling it some 6 feet past the hole and near where his original putt had been. He also missed the bogey putt, tapping in for a double-bogey 6 that dropped him two shots back of playing partner Roberts, who made a birdie putt on the same green. After starting the day tied for the lead -with Stadler and Roberts, Watson sagged to a 73 that left him four shots back at 202 along with Des Smyth, whom Watson beat in a playoff last weekend to win the Senior British Open. Roberts, playing in just his second event for the 50-and-over crowd, bogeyed the first hole but made the turn in even-par as he came to the signature hole at NCR Country Club, the par-5, 546-yard 10th. Roberts' drive was in the deep rough right of the fairway on the dogleg right hole, which has a green tilted severely from back to front and surround- ed by deep bunkers.

"We feel very delighted after a suffering period when things did not work in our favor," Schumacher said. "I am pretty confident There was no reason to not believe in Ferrari's return." It was his 64th career pole position, but his first in 14 races. His previous pole came at last October's Japanese Grand Prix. Ferrari's last pole was the final race of 2004, the Brazilian GP when Rubens Barrichello led. Schumacher had the pole in the race before that and then was shut out in the first 12 races this season. *' It is the first time since 1998 that Schumacher had gone so long without a pole position. His next one will tie him with Ayrton Senna for the Formula One all-time mark "It is one step in the right direction. Then we will see where we go from there," the German said. Schumacher has struggled all season after winning 12 of his first 13 races last year He has just one win, at the tainted U.S. Grand Prix after seven teams pulled out because of safety concerns over Michelin tires. On a hot day in the Hungarian hills, with track tem- peratures approaching 122 degrees, the Ferrari driver clocked 1 minute, 19.882 sec- onds on the twisting 2.722-mile Hungaroring circuit McLaren's Juan Pablo Montoya, who has taken first and second in the last two races, was next with 1:20.779 ahead of Toyota driver Jarno Trulli, third with 1:20.839. "To be on pole is one thing," Schumacher said. "To do it with such a time margin to the others is another thing. "But on the other side, it is just qualifying, the race is still to be done," he added. Schumacher will be seeking his fifth victory at the Hungaroring. He won in 1994 for Benetton, the first year he won the driving title. He repeat- ed in 1998, 2001 and 2004 for Ferrari.

Venus Williams saved five match points in the second set and overcame her inconsistent ground game, rallying for a 2-6, 7-6 (4), 6-2 victory over Patty Schnyder on Saturday to reach the final of the Bank of the West Classic. The second-seeded Williams will play her 500th career match Sunday in the very tournament where she made her debut 11 years ago, when it was in Oakland. Williams got back in it by doing what she does best: dictating the pace, showing patience and winning big points with ath- letic putaways at the net She will play for the championship against the winner of Saturday's late match between No. 4 seed Kim Clijsters and Anna-Lena Groenefeld. Williams looked tired at times and struggled with her serve in her first tour- nament since winning Wimbledon in dra- matic fashion earlier this month against Lindsay Davenport, 4-6, 7-6 (4), 9-7 in the longest women's final at the All England Club: 2 hours, 45 minutes.

Discovery tries to find new role for Armstrong Associated Press SILVER SPRING, Md. - In the weeks before what would be Lance Armstrong's final ride in the Tour de France, Discovery Communications launched a media blitz across its cable channels for the cycling champion. Discovery Health aired a show featuring cancer sur- vivors telling how they were inspired by Armstrong's bout with the disease. On TLC's car makeover show "Overhaulin'," his rocker girl- friend Sheryl Crow had his Pontiac GTO souped up for him. TLC even aired a profile of his mother, titled "Raising a Champion." But with Armstrong retired after his seventh straight Tour victory and with two years left on a three-year endorsement deal, Discovery must decide how to use its star now that he's stepped off the winner's podium for good. "They went into this realiz- ing there was going to have to be a life after this sponsor- ship," said Paul Swangard, managing director of the University of Oregon's Warsaw Sports Marketing Center. "They are banking on Lance remaining a piece of popular culture in the absence of him competing." Armstrong and his cycling team signed a deal worth a reported $10 million annual- ly with Discovery last year after the U.S. Postal Service dropped its contract. Discovery only required Armstrong to ride in one more Tour and knew he like- ly was going to retire before the contract expired, compa- ny spokesman David Leavy said. It initially seemed an odd move. The closest thing Discovery had to a star ath- lete was the Crocodile Hunter, Steve Irwin, best known for flinging himself onto wild animals. Discovery's brands such as Animal Planet, TLC and the Travel Channel do not carry sports programming and the company does not sponsor other athletes or sports. However, Discovery chan- nels are now available in 160 countries, including regions of Europe where cycling is, much more popular than in the United States. Despite limited domestic interest in Associated Press Lance Armstrong and members of his Discovery team pose for photographers last Sunday dur- ing a victory parade on the Champs Elysees after Armstrong won his 7th straight Tour de France cycling race in Paris. .the sport, choosing a cyclist fit Discovery's market, according to Leavy. "To have Lance as a global icon, to be an on-air person- ality for us, opens up a lot of possibilities," Leavy said. The three-week Tour gave Discovery broad global brand exposure. The yellow leader's jersey Armstrong wore for most of the race bore a big Discovery logo. His teammates wore white and blue Discovery jerseys and shorts. News photos of Armstrong, ON TH arms raised as B Discover he celebrated Commun his last Tour vic- www.disc tory in Paris, all captured the Discovery symbol across his chest. The network is now mar- keting cycling gear, including racing hats, shorts, watches, a DVD and a replica yellow jer- sey that sells for $149.95. Armstrong said he plans to continue his television work with Discovery and the Outdoor Life Network, which broadcasts the Tour. Discovery still will sponsor the racing team and after the contract expires, it will decide whether to continue with the sport, Leavy said. Even as he retires, Armstrong has broad appeal to sponsors. He earned about $17.5 million last year on endorsements, according to Sports Illustrated, on deals with companies such as Nike, Subaru and Coca-Cola. As a sign of his marketing power, Nike has sold more than 50 million of the $1 yel- low LiveStrong bracelets to raise money for Armstrong's cancer foundation. "Lance as a brand means a lot of things to a lot of p'eo- ple," Swangard said. "He doesn't necessarily need to be competing to reinforce that He has built a lot of equity in the last seven years that will carry him forward." Discovery plans to develop programming with Armstrong as an on-air per- sonality, building on his inspirational IE NET y nications: covery.com appeal as a can- cer survivor, for example. Leavy said there are no current plans for specif- ic shows. Discovery already has tried to weave Armstrong in with its stars through guest appearances and other pro- motions. The day after his victory, the network ran full- page ads in The Washington Post and USA Today with congratulatory notes from the likes of Irwin, Stacy London of TLC's "What Not to Wear" and the crew from the Discovery Channel's "American Chopper." However, shows featuring Armstrong have not generat- ed much extra attention from viewers. The string of Armstrong-themed shows Discovery aired before the tour, called "Lance Week," posted ratings only even with the averages for their time slots, Leavy said. Having Armstrong signed on may not be a guaranteed money maker. The Postal Service spent $25 million sponsoring Armstrong's team in the last four years of its contract and claimed it generated $18 mil- lion in revenue. But a 2003 audit by the Postal Service's inspector general only veri- fied $698,000 of that $18 mil- lion claim. Leavy said the Postal Service deal was aimed at only the United States, a mar- ket with a limited appetite for cycling, whereas Discovery hopes to use Armstrong to build its brand globally. Armstrong faces the same challenges as other sports stars when they retire how to stay in the spotlight while no longer doing what made them famous. Discovery will have to find ways to keep him in the public mind, said Jeff Bliss, president of the Alexandria, Va., sports mar- keting firm Javelin Group. "He needs to keep the American public in particu- lar excited about the Tour; hopefully, that will rub off on Discovery," Bliss said. Bliss said Discovery could play up his celebrity relation- ship with Crow or develop a reality show around the cyclist to keep the public interested. However, without -Armstrong riding, interest in the Tour, cycling and possibly Armstrong himself likely will wane in the United States, he said. "The appeal of him as an athlete is what has brought everyone along here," Bliss said. "Without that, it is going to be more manufactured, perhaps not quite as authen- tic." Younger athletes poised to take over track Associated Press The conquering kids of America, a fresh wave of Caribbean speed, yet another tireless troop of Africans and a Russian female version of Sergey Bubka. The young have taken over track and field, and not just in the United States. Most are in their early 20s, some still in their teens. Several already own Olympic medals, and many will add to their collection at the world championships Aug. 6-14 in Helsinki, Finland. They aren't as familiar as Marion Jones, Michael Johnson, Maurice Greene or Gail Devers, but give them time, because theirs might be the deepest and most talented generation in the sport's his- tory. Among the best of the U.S. contingent: Justin Gatlin (100 and 200 meters), Jeremy Wariner (400), Sanya Richards (400), Allyson Felix (200) and Kerron Clement (400 hurdles). Gatlin is the oldest at 23. Internationally, start with 23-year-old Ethiopian Kenenisa Bekele, who broke the world 5,000- and 10,000- meter records in a nine-day span last year and is entered in both events in Helsinki. Bekele outran his famous countryman, Haile Gebrselassie, to win the Olympic 10,000 in Athens. Bekele and a rising contin- gent of even younger Ethiopians will do battle with traditional nemesis Kenya, whose top runners include Isaac Kiprono Songok, 21, and Eliud Kipchoge, 20. The fastest of the Caribbean sprinters, Asafa Powell of Jamaica, is doubtful for the worlds after tearing a groin muscle at the Crystal Palace meet in London on July 22. Powell, just 22, set the world 100 record at 9.77 seconds last month, but the fans at Olympic Stadium in Finland could be deprived of his much-antici- pated showdown with Olympic' gold medalist Gatlin. The safest bet for a world record is remarkable Russian Yelena Isinbayeya in the pole vault. After all, she's broken it 17 times, four in the last month. At the Crystal Palace meet, Isinbayeva broke her world mark twice and became the first woman to clear 5 meters (16 feet, 4% inches). Bubka, who was watching, set 35 world pole vault records. "I would like to have 36 world records," Isinbayeva said. "It's my new goal." She has no world champi- onships, though, finishing third in Paris two years ago. The IAAF, the sport's inter- national governing body, promises its largest anti-dop- ing effort, with more than 850 tests before, during and after the competition. No sport has been tainted more by performance-enhanc- ing substances than track and field, but those connected with the BALCO drug laboratory scandal won't be competing in Helsinki. Some weren't fast enough, others are serving suspensions. Kelli White, stripped of the 100 and 200 gold medals she won at the last world championships in Paris, has admitted steroid use, is cooperating with authorities and has become an anti-drug spokeswoman as she serves a two-year ban. The young stars say they welcome the chance to put a shine on track's tarnished image. "I hate it when people say "Is he or she on drues?"' said Richards, a 20-year-old who has. run under 50 seconds in the 400 five times this year and beat Olympic champion Tonique Williams-Darling in Switzerland a month ago. "I know that w ith the new crop of athletes, and us running fast and doing it the right way, it will definitely reflect well on the sport." Gatlin rebuts concerns about his coach, Trevor Graham, who sent the vial con- taining the designer steroid THG to U.S. doping authori- ties to show them what some athletes were using to avoid detection. Several of Graham's athletes in years past have tested positive for steroids. "I know what to say 'no'. to and what to say 'yes' to," Gatlin said. "If any allegations come up, I know it doesn't involve me, because I want to go out there and run the best race I can clean." He also wants to show emo- tion but not the boorish, chest- thumping braggadocio often associated with his predeces- sors: "I know I took on a responsi- bility of being a role model to young kids," Gatlin said. "When kids are watching, they're going to mimic. Obviously we want action and entertainment in track and field, but we don't want any-. thing to go wrong like it has in the past" The competition will go on without names who have dom- inated the sport over the past decade. Dogged by doping suspi- cions despite her vehement denials. Jones was exceeding- ly slow this year, then at the U.S. championships Jones picked up her clothes and left the starting blocks just before thle 100 preliminaries. Her agent said she had a hip flexor injury. Devers has not been heard from all season, and at 38 finally may be ready to call an end to her long career. Hicham El Guerrouj of Morocco, double Olympic gold medalist and four-time world champion in the 1,500, con- firmed a week ago that he wold not compete this year. Olympic triple jump cham- pion Christian Olsson or Sweden, Olympic 800 and 1,500 champion Kelly:Holmes of Britain and defending world 400 champion Jana Pittman of Australia will miss the Helsinki competition because of injuries. Greene, a three-time world 100 champion and 2000 Olympic gold medalist, will be in Helsinki,, but only as a member of the U.S. 400-meter relay pool after pulling up with a hamstring injury at the nationals. Associated Press Associated Press reporter Megan McCloskey, white shirt, readies herself along with other competitors for the half-mile swim in the first leg of the Danskin triathlon on July 17 in Aurora, Colo. 'You ready' Those buoys cannot possi- bly be in the right place. There is no way that's the distance I have to swim - it never seemed that far in the lap pool. The sun is just starting to rise over the Aurora Reservoir and thousands of women with numbers scrawled on their legs and arms in black marker are staring out at the water. Heads shake in disbelief. I nudge my sister with my elbow. "You ready?" Last year it was almost a whim. A triathlon? Sure. Why not? My sister was competing, so I signed up, too. I'm a young athlete. It didn't sound that hard: A half-mile swim, 12 miles on a bicycle and a three- mile run. I sent in my $75 reg- istration fee two months before the Danskin series race. I know exactly how much training I did for that race. I hit the pool all of six times just to know I could physically swim the distance (breast- stroke the whole way). I biked three times. Once I even did a "brick" (that's tri-speak for doing two of the events back to back, like a swim and a bike or a bike and a run). This year was different. It was no whim; it was an obses- sion. Five days a week I was either on a bike, in a pool or on a trail or doing something that would help me when I was on a bike, in a pool or on a trail. It's amazing how a three-event race can make you so single- minded. Now, standing with hun- dreds of women in matching swim caps, just minutes before my turn to jump in, doubt starts creeping into my head and but- terflies begin to replace the peanut butter and banana sandwich I ate before the sun came up. "Ten, nine, eight," the crowd chants. "Three, two, one." No turning back now. Triathlons have replaced the team sports I played in high school and college. The train- ing is solo, but there is cama- raderie at the event itself. It's motivating to hang out with women of all ages willing to challenge themselves with such a demanding race. This year, I also paid for a little additional motivation: a per- sonal trainer One day I made the mistake. of telling him I had been too busy to do much cardio that week. As he set up orange cones along the basketball court, he announced: "No rest in between sets today." A sadis- tic .smile broke out on his face and he added: "Instead, you'll sprint." Right now, I'm doing my best just to float Blue, yellow and purple swim caps bob in the water. Swimming is my weak link I hit the pool hard this year, swimming too many laps to count. Tap the wall and swim back Over and over. My goal was to swim the half mile mostly freestyle, but a couple of mouthfuls of reser- voir later I revert to a head- above-the-water breaststroke. When I hit land 27 minutes later, I have a barefoot sprint on asphalt to my bike. Last year, I really thought it would be fairly easy. As easy as riding a bike, right? I couldn't have been more wrong. I didn't figure out how hard a triathlon is until I was smack in the mid- dle of it. If there was a place to quit along the bike route, I probably would have. The euphoria of passing the finish line was enough to con- vince me that I wanted to be a triathlete. I think part of my motivation is that word: triath- lete. Workouts take on a higher purpose. I'm not just running. I'm training. Still wet from the swim, I jump on my bike, and with the first pedal strokes I know all those miserable hours in the gym have paid off. I' start pass- ing people right away; last year, I was always the passee. I cruise through the first couple of miles. But as I bike to the top of the race's most brutal hill, my quadriceps screaming in protest, I figure out why my motivation had started to wahe two weeks earlier: This is a miserable way to spend a Sunday. * "Almost halfway!" race vol- unteers cheer during the bike ride. Yeah. Thanks. A few pedal strokes later and I'm reaping the rewards of that beautiful, beautiful hill. I let my feet coast on the pedals for: a while and that's all I need to kick it up a notch. My ego takes over for my quads, and I'm rocking on the remaining hills.: My sister, already done with her race (the older folks get t6 go first), is there to ,greet me after I get off my bike. A quick high five, a switch of helmet for hat, and I'm off on the run. My calves are burning almost from the start and: there's a weird ache in my right Achilles tendon, but determination overrides the pain. The sun is hot by this time. I'm out of water, but it doesn't matter: Something clicks on that last leg of the race. Whether it's knowing I'm almost done or my brain just taking over for my body, the run seems like the easiest part. I cross the finish line, exhaust- ed but euphoric. And I know that it's three weeks until I do it all again. m Megan McCloskey, 23, works in the AP's Denver bureau.

That's my theory in life and I've managed to live through more than my fair share of these storms. We don't get Kansas torna- does in Florida, and Dorothy would probably be pretty dis- appointed. But Kansas never swung a presidential election, so they can have Dorothy and her slippers. For at least the sixth time, I've found myself dealing with an active tornado on the ground.

DOUGLAS STEPHENSON Special to the Chronicle W e are horrified by weekly reports of domestic violence, cruelty and death by battering against women and children. Not new, battering and domestic violence have been reported for at least the past two millennia of Western history. Ranging from physical to psy- chological torture and abuse, carelessness, sheer possessiveness and sadism, battering is so extensive and disturbing that one might believe that loving and healthy marriage and family relationships are the exception rather than the rule. Battering is physical, violent aggression with the purpose of control, intimidation and subju- gation. Sometimes couples have "pushing and shoving" arguments, a type of low level vio- lence. Serious physical injury and death are at the higher end of the violence scale. N. Jacobson and J. Gottman, in "When Men Batter Women: New Insights Into Ending Abusive Relationships," report statistics show- ing that 50 percent of newlyweds are involved in some level of battering. Annually, 1.6 million wives are assaulted; 33 percent of all murdered women are killed by husbands, ex-husbands, boyfriends or ex-boyfriends. With such a lengthy history, many myths about battering have developed. "All batterers are alike." Untrue; there are at least two distinct types. "Battering is not caused by substances abuse/alcohol." Untrue; alcohol is a key indica- tor/factor of abuse in the first year of marriage. Some men get high to initiate battering; women are at risk when mates use substances. "Batterers cannot control anger." Untrue; battering is almost always voluntary. "Battering stops on its own." Untrue; it may decrease over time, but it doesn't stop. "Women provoke men into battering." Untrue; men initiate violence in spite of what the wife says or does. "Women who stay in abusive relationships are crazy." Untrue; although 38 percent of women do leave, ones who stay do so out of fear, lack of money and holding onto a fantasy that their batterer will change to a loving mate.

At first, the administration downplays it and rallies around the individual. If the problems continue and more information comes out, the administration backs away. Take the case of Karl Rove. The pres- ident has not given him an unqualified endorsement and is now saying this is a serious matter and that he cannot com- ment on it until all the facts are in. I just recently did my radio show, The Florida Roundtable, with Republican Congressman Tom Feeney, who is a good friend of Rove's and one of the leaders of the conservative movement in the Congress. He echoed the presi- dent and said that this is truly a serious matter; that this could impact Ameri- can intelligence around the world even to the extent of people not wanting to Please see VOICES/Page 6C Charlie Brennan SHADES OF GRAY How about a nice big handshake? Some things aren't for everyone. Take, for example, "man hugs." There was a short segment on NBC's 'Today" a couple of days ago about man hugs. Yeah, the guys proved they could still be guys with no qualms about giving their buddies a big old squeeze. And that's a great thing for them. It could well be that I'm socially stunted because my father and I weren't into hug- ging. It didn't have anything to do with love or respect or any- thing. It's just that we weren't huggers. I'm comfortable with that We shook hands a lot and even had a secret handshake. Now, I'm not saying that when an old buddy I haven't seen in a year or more visits that there's no embrace. Typically there is. It usually starts with a solid handshake that seems inadequate and leads to an awkward little semi- dance where we defend our masculinity while awkwardly achieving something that resembles a hug. It's very brief. I'm comfortable with that Still, that's not my desired greeting for someone I see every month or two, let alone every week or two.

That has significant meaning to every individual who owns property and pays taxes in this county. What it should mean is that the tax rate levied by every branch of local government' should go down. But if you're not careful, that won't happen. As Chronicle senior writer Jim Hunter has pointed out in recent articles, there has been a dra- matic increase in property sales and THE I the cost of property THE I! in our county. Higher F The increased values mr volume and cost of tax d( those sales has resulted in a wind- OUR 01 fall of new revenue Governmei for every branch of reduce the local government. Some of that new revenue in the form of new homes comes with costs asso- ciated. New homes bring new residents who want new services - and that costs money. But much of the new value of lands and new tax dollars - come through the increased value of vacant land. And since no one lives on that vacant land, there is no associated demand for new services. That's found money for local government. During the next two months, every branch of local govern- ment will finalize budgets for the next fiscal year. Many millions of new dollars will be generated even if the existing tax rate is held steady. It's important for citizens not to be fooled by politicians who tell you they are holding your taxes flat because they are not raising the tax rate. If county government holds the tax rate flat, they will get $14 million more dollars in 2005-06. There is nothing flat about that. There are many reasons why local government needs to spend more money. Our schoolteachers need higher pay and new schools are needed to house additional students. The sher- iff's office needs a new emer- gency operations center, and growth brings demands for new deputies. Our infrastructure - sewers and water are terribly outdated and in need of an infu- sion of spending. But not that much spending in one year. And remember, in this same year where government is get- ting all this new money, the county commission already has adopted an additional 6 cents on the gas tax. That increase will ISSUE: property ean more dollars. PINION: ent should e tax rate. take effect Jan. 1, 2006. Taxpayers should challenge every branch of local gov- ernment to lower their tax rate. The level does not need to go back to the rollback rate the rate that would raise the same amount of cash as 2005 but it does need to be reduced. The increased valuation of property is going to have dra- matic changes on our communi- ty, and not all of them will be good. It will be more difficult for low-income and young families to afford a home. It will be tougher for new retirees to pay steep property taxes. And it will create an inequity in the amount of taxes that homeowners pay. Because the Save Our Homes amendment limits the property value increase on someone's homestead to 3 percent a year, new residents will end up paying much higher taxes than existing residents. The end result will be that if two families live in Citrus Hills with the exact same home, one might pay $2,500 in property taxes while the homeowner around the corner will pay $5,000. The gap will continue to grow as the years go on. There will be plenty of new dollars for government in 2005/06. But let's all remember, it's our money. Local government needs to be wise in the way those dollars are spent. Government can send the proper message by decreasing individual tax rates. Family activity I read where the county commission is going to cut the family park on S State Road 44. Why don't they pay attention to families with kids? We need things to do.

Collecting wisdom from the past ( A n essential part of knowing who we A k are is understand- P' ing where we came from," says Sen. Mary Landrieu, . who comes from a family of dedicated public servants. The Louisiana Democrat has introduced legislation ' aimed at helping African- *- Americans uncover their Cokie an particularly hard-to-trace V. Ro family histories, but her OT- statement is meant for all of ,..-7.,. us. To understand where we - came from we need records, which could be hard for future genera- tions to come by in this electronic age. As we've each traveled the country talking about books we've written draw- ing on old letters, we've been surprised at how many people ask the question, "How will our kids and grandkids know anything about our past without family letters?" It's a good question, one that deserves some attention. When Steve was preparing to write his recently published memoir, "My Fathers' Houses" (William Morrow, 2005), he asked his mother if she had anything that. might be useful to him. "Oh, yes', Steven, I do," she replied. Much to his amazement, she then pro- duced bundles of carefully kept letters from her courtship with his dad. They met on her 17th birthday and lived only one block away from each other in Bayonne, N.J., but they corresponded regularly for four years. The letters not only open wonderful windows into Steve's parents' young lives, they also vividly bring to life the struggles of the Depression and reveal an important slice of American history, not just the history of one American family As he was piecing together that history, Steve also had the benefit of memory of hearing stories told by his a, grandfather, who immigrat- ed to this country. Some of these tales were recorded by S. cousins who had the fore- s~sight to preserve them on tape. Cokie's challenge in "Founding Mothers" (Wil- liam Morrow, 2004) un- earthing the stories of the d Steven women who influenced the berts Founding Fathers was a ? tougher one. Some of the -,- women, like Martha Wash- ington, had destroyed their correspondence. Families of other women failed to save their fore- mothers' words, thinking them unim- portant. Even where letters of Revolutionary- era women have been preserved, they are often inaccessible tossed in dusty boxes in historical societies, unread and untranscribed. These treasures are thus moldering away, depriving us of half of our history. Fortunately, like Steve's cousins, some of the 19th-centu- ry descendants of these remarkable women understood the contribution of their ancestors and put together histo- ries based on the spoken word as well as the written one. Now an exciting project called StoryCorps has started collecting the spoken word in a systematic fashion. Taking his inspiration from the Work Projects Administration oral history project, radio producer David Isay has set up recording booths in New York City at Grand Central Station and, just recently, at the World Trade Center site. In those mini-recording studios and in Airstream trailers carrying a couple of mobile booths around the country, peo- ple are lining up to interview family members about their lives. A StoryCorps "facilitator" helps guide the interviewer through a 40-minute ses- sion and provides the participants with a CD of the conversation. A second CD goes, if the family permits, to the Library of Congress. Some stories are also broadcast on National Public Radio. Isay told us in an interview that.he is struck, in listening to the stories of so many diverse Americans, that "so much more binds us than divides us." That's what studying our history is all about - finding the things that bind us. As Steve talks about his Russian-Jewish immi- grant grandparents, he finds people of all ethnicities nodding their heads, rec- ognizing a family story told to them with an Italian or Spanish or Vietnamese accent instead of a Yiddish one. , And he finds, to his delight, people asking, "What can I do? How canI tell my own family, story?" There are sever- al answers: print out important e-mails from family members and save them; talk to elderly relatives and record their memories; and preserve those old letters and photos that are in the base- ment Verifying family histories often requires written records. That's why Mary Landrieu is right to work on making it easier for African- Americans, most of whom were: not listed in the.census records before the abolition of slavery, to track down their ancestors. "The first step to building a better future for" all Americans is for us to learn from our past." That doesn't just mean the grand events of government. It means the everyday trials and triumphs of us all. As David Isay says of StoryCorps, "We're collecting more than history, we're collecting wisdom."

P caglecartoons.com **~4e ~Yri~t-r AJ~)5 LETTERS Special case Now, let me see if I have this straight There is a city code in Crystal River that states that grass growing on landscaped or mowed lots may not exceed 22 inches. A code enforcement officer was doing his job and sent notices to the Crystal River mayor and 11 other people to tell them that their lawns were too high. The mayor was given until June 29 to correct the violation. The mayor, who had been on vacation for a month, came home and mowed his lawn before opening his mail and learning about the notice. Although the mayor was guilty of breaking the city code, he believes that the code enforcement officer was wrong because "there was probably a better use of the inspector's time than to check overgrown lots in a season of heavy rain." I guess a better use of the inspec- tor's time would be to check whose house is being notified of code viola- tion. If it isn't the mayor or other gov- ernment official or some other elected official of the City of Crystal River, it is fair to send a notice of code violation. I didn't realize that the position of mayor means that this was a position of selective code enforcement Thanks for setting me straight, Mr. Mayor.

The title stuck, and he remains my "good brother William." Being William's little brother brought status. The bigger kids toler- ated me. The little league coach kept me on the team even though I had no talent, continuing to hope one day I'd develop into a player as good as my brother. It didn't happen. Having a big brother made me feel safe, and even now, once in a while, it still does. As I mentioned in a recent column, I bought a generator, something I had no idea how to use. A few days after buying it, during a telephone conver- sation, I told my brother. Trying to soft pedal the panic in his voice, he inquired, "Do you know what to do with it?" I replied, "No, but I have an owner's manual." With no further thought about spar- ing my ego, he blurted out, "A genera- tor can kill you. I'll be over to set it up and show you how to use it." Based on his experiences and mine, that was the right decision. He knows about such things, I don't. He set up my generator, taught me how to use it and saw to it that instruc- tions were written and posted in the garage, right next to the main electri- cal switch box, so anyone who might use the generator would know pre- cisely what to do and what not to do. When I was born, the very minute I first saw the light of day, he was there, he was my big brother. He was 3, going on 4. I'm now 60. He's 63, going on 64.

James Black Inverness Sources of water With all this hullabaloo - about water problems in Citrus County, I have been wondering about a few things. Where are we going to get all the water necessary to supply the astounding growth rate in Citrus and surrounding coun- ties? Let's face it, more people means more problems. Some would be water usage, always a problem, Street, traffic and traffic light problems will have to be dealt with. Look at the mess we just put up with on County Road 491 and that's only a small part of the prob- lem. State Road 41 is going to be another one. With the population explo- sion, we will have school prob- lems, bussing for the children, again causing traffic problems. Are the commissioners Ulp to this huge task? I don't know, but they had better start think- ing about the planning and the logistics of supplying these needs right now, not tomorrow. (Tomorrow never comes.) As an ex-fireman, I know how that water is necessary to extinguish large fires. They could be brush, condominiums, duplexes, garden apartments and of course "super duper" shopping malls and factories. I hope that all new, large con- struction projects require mandatory sprinklers and an adequate water supply. I see we are in the process of put- ting in large pipes on Elkcam Boulevard. What are they for? Are they water supply or sewer and drainage pipes? If they are for water and fire suppression, are they adequate for all the new construction? How are they cross-connected to insure a continuous water supply? Water main breaks are not uncommon anywhere. What procedures are or will be taken in the event of a large fire when water is needed most Normal usage doesn't go down while a fire rages. Firemen and civilians have been killed because of a drop in pressure or no pressure at all because of huge demands on the water supply Stopping dripping faucets and illegal use of sprinklers if corrected won't make a dent in this problem. What we really need is a well-thought-out solu- tion to an ever-increasing prob- lem. Don Canham Citrus Springs Sound .- F Enough already This is in response to the gentleman on TV from Channel 16 the other night in regards to the tax money and who to help. All we read in the papers nowadays is all about taxing, how much more they can tax people. Personally, I'm one that's a small- business owner, plus own several homes in the area. I will be the first one to sell my business and my homes and move out of Citrus County if they go ahead and raise any more taxes. I'm born and raised here. I think we've been taxed enough. If you live on the water, you pay double; if you own a business, you pay triple. There should be some kind of cap on how much you're going to keep taxing business peo- ple and small.business people and individ- uals. Property taxes have gone sky high. Why don't you give some of the money back to the people that are paying the highest amount of tax brackets? Whoever's paying the most taxes gets to have some type of a rebate. Never mind this home- . stead exemption for these older people, the senior citizens. Start giving back to the people that pay the most of it. Think that would be a terrific idea. Love to see it in the Chronicle. . Don't mix meds I have to laugh at these pharmacists. They tell you to stick to one drugstore so they know about any medicines that you're already taking. What a joke. You pick up your new prescription and take it home to take as ordered. Before taking your first dose, you read the paperwork that comes with this new prescription. So what does this information sheet tell you? It tells you not to combine this medication with cer- tain other medicines. One of these medi- cines that you're not supposed to combine with this newer one with is a medicine that this pharmacist has been giving you for the past three years, and yet he doesn't even realize that you're not supposed to take one if you're taking another. Fortunately I read all this literature, but not everybody else does. Many people just take a new prescription home and start popping the pills without any concern about side effects if you're on something else. These pharma- cists should recognize ... and warn you that these two medicines can't be com- bined, but they have no idea they shouldn't go together. A big help they are. Turtle tragedy Several days ago, my daughters and I were returning to Floral City from Inver- ness. Suddenly the daughter who was driv- ing saw a large turtle lumbering across the highway ahead of us. Being a compassion- ate creature lover, she took pains to avoid hitting it. The turtle's slow progress made this fairly easy. She watched in her rear- view mirror to see its progress, fearful that another car would hit it. She turned around and drove back to rescue it by movirig it off the highway. When she went to pick it up, she cried out when she saw it had indeed been hit and its shell crushed, but it was still alive. She gently removed it to the side of the road, but could not bear to leave it in the hot sun to die. We brought it home, watched it struggling to breathe ... One daughter called our vet to see if they could euthanize it. It was obvi- ously mortally wounded. The nearest place that would take the turtle was in Hom- osassa too far and too late, we knew. My daughters brought the turtle into the garage and watched it as its life ebbed away. Then they took it and sent it to a watery grave in the lake behind my house. The point here is: If my daughter could avoid hitting this poor creature, why could not the driver of the car who killed it?... Elderly deceived Can anyone recommend help for an eld- erly woman who has been deceived: by a water conditioner company? Several con- tacts have been made to the company by phone and a certified letter requesting that they honor their written agreement to remove the unit if it doesn't fix her water problem. The first unit was supposed to fix her water problem. Then they told her she needed another unit to make it work, and it doesn't. Won't call her back or come and get the unit at her request. Water causes black stains on fixtures, yellow clothes and a lot of stress. A lot of con- tacts have been made to the Better Bus- iness Bureau, TV station help lines and so forth. This elderly woman has been de- ceived and her money took on the first unit, and now they're trying to get her again. Can anyone help her? She is a Citrus County resident. Front-line trouble I'm calling in response to the individual who wrote about "Protect borders," in the Monday, July 25, Sound Off. I am all for that ... I did several reports on this in col- lege this past year. The problem is not just not having enough people protecting our borders; the problem is upper manage- ment in INS, immigration and the Homeland Security. They need to get down to the front and speak to the people in the front lines and see what'the problems are because upper management is not cooper- ating or speaking with the lower levels ... I had a big report about how the people from Mexico are coming through the dirti- est river and bringing malaria. It's just , unbelievable. It's more than 8,000 a day that come in over our borders .. NEW GASOLINE FUEL GAUGE FOR CARS 4C SUNDAY, JULY 31, 2005 ___________________________________________________________ Leaner labor could set the stage for new strategic, DOUGLAS COHN AND ELEANOR CLIFT Special to the Chronicle It's about time that a handful of revolutionaries within the labor movement rose up and challenged the leadership. After a string of defeats at the ballot box, it had become obvi- ous that Big- Labor is more tired and out of touch than it ever has been, losing ground and members with each suc- cessive election. A clue to how bad things are is that John Sweeney, 71, presi- dent of the AFL-CIO, traveled to Chicago for the union's 50th anniversary celebration with- out really believing that at least two giant unions, a quarter of his membership, were ready to break away. The union move- ment under Sweeney's leader- ship had grown "pale, male and stale," say the dissidents who represent a work force that is increasingly more female, people of color, and younger than the factory and assembly-line workers who formed the bulk of union work- ers back in the movement's heyday. Today only 8 percent of work- ers in the private sector belong to a union, compared to 35 per- cent in the 1950s. Since then, everything has changed. Globalization has taken hold, and the paternalistic bond between corporations and workers has fallen prey to the need to downsize and maxi- mize profits. Workers have seen- their quality of life decline while having little' recourse to fight the trends engulfing them. Mega compa- nies like Wal-Mart are impervi- ous to unions, a development that the leader of the break- away coalition, Andrew Stern, 54, president of the Service Employees International Union, vows to change. Stern was ..once Sweeney's protege, and their battle is as much a clash of generations and personalities as it is a dis- pute over tactics. Stern is impa- tient, a revolutionary by nature, where Sweeney has settled into the role of elder statesman, more comfortable explaining labor's losses than challenging himself to change. The core of their disagreement is over resources and whether they're better spent trying to win political campaigns, which Sweeney favors, or devoted to large-scale organizing efforts, which Stern is pushing as the representative of service work- ers such as janitors and nurs- ing home aides, a rapidly grow- ing and often exploited part of the work force. The break-up -comes -at a time when many Americans need to be reminded of the value of unions in a democratic system. A good place to look historically is the memoran- dum drafted by General Douglas MacArthur after the Japanese surrender in World War II that outlined the condi- tions for the country's democ- ratization. First was voting rights for women; second was "the encouragement of the Other VOICES unionization of labor," which MacArthur saw as an essential building block for a stable civil society.

Real estate tax Just inquiring about something I read ii your paper a couple of days ago regard- ing the windfall real estate taxes here in Citrus County and they're trying to figure out what to do with the excess money.

I notice that several surrounding counties in fact several counties in the state of Florida have a somewhat, I think it's a freeze on real estate taxes for- people 65 and older, yet in Citrus County we don't have such a thing. I wonder if it's possible if you have any information on that, if you could share that with us..It would be, I believe, not only in the upscale communities where the taxes are rising so quickly, but throughout the entire county. It would be great if seniors could get just a little bit of a break on the real estate taxes. Editor's note: The county commission voted against it earlier this year. The Chronicle published several stories and edito rials on it urging the commissioners to approve it, but they didn't.

Well, I feel it's a shame the deputies didn't knock the door down. Butif they did, they would probably lose their job, and Dawsy would have lost his. The blame goes on our legal system.

Untrue; battering is not related to women's behavior. Two types of batterers have been profiled. . Type 1 batterers are more severely violent. They will suppress their wives' expressions of anger, and wives can be very fearful. Their behavior can produce significant sadness in other family members. Having severe antisocial, criminal- like traits, they are highly sadistic, aggressive and more violent toward others. They are not emotionally dependent, and encourage wives to be independent Hedonistic and impulsive, they feel no feelings or remorse for their 'behavior Possessing no conscience, they are often withdrawn and make only superficial commitments. With no fear of wife abandonment they have chaotic family histories and often abuse drugs and alcohol. They realize that they are in control and make no demands when left alone. Type 1 batterers are always in con- trol, can be persuasive con artists and often suffer from various mental ill- nesses.

Although the wife may try to inject normalcy into the relationship, bat- terers are unwilling to accept her influence. -Because of the "dream" of a normal life, the wife treats the batterer as normal and able to be reasoned with. Because none of this is effective or realistic, she remains in a constant state of conflicting emotions, respond- ing with a mix of anger and fear. The wife is assaulted and degraded before and during physical beatings. Both women and men can be equal- ly angry in violent incidents, where the batterer is usually "in the face" of the women. Violence will end when the batterer reestablishes his control. The woman can. now even feel bat- tered when the man is not present The batterer creates,' in the end, a total mind control of the woman, who often believes that she is insane. F.

Most individuals like to be comfortable and secure, and they often find this security in emulating family patterns of activity, even when parental upbringing is quite negative (often called "Security in Insecurity"). A typical example of this insecurity life pattern manifes- tation is the child abuser. If a father beats a child, often when the child becomes an adult, he may beat his chil- dren, and when they grow up, they become abusers. However, it must be noted, that individuals often rebel against parents' behavior and react in an opposite pattern; for example, a child of an alco- holic parent might be a rigid teetotaler.

The Authority and its representatives have been accused of arrogance and much worse. We have always enjoyed a good relationship with Citrus County government and with our customers. We strive to pro- vide service and value and, to the extent that we've caused frustration, we are truly very sorry. We could have done a better job communicating with the public con- cerning the need for the assessment program we have prepared for the FGUAs Citrus Utility System. As we move forward, we promise to do better. Clear, timely, two-way communication will frame the public discussion about what's needed and how that need can and should be met to serve the public interest The FGUA is a government body that was formed for two main purposes: 1) to buy private water companies and put them into public management; and, 2) to be a tool for other local gov- ernments in extending critical water and sewer infrastructure in a cost- effective manner. That is, we exist as a government management tool to own, operate, improve and manage water and wastewater facilities as a partner with the host local government This model has worked well for years. We have successfully managed facilities for Sarasota, Brevard, Hillsborough, Collier, Lee, Polk and Osceola counties. In the case of Hillsborough, Sarasota and Brevard counties, we have successfully trans- ferred much-improved systems back to the local government according to our agreements and our mission. We are not a private company We are not a profit-based business. Our board is made up of high-ranking staff from the local governments represent- ing our customers. These individuals are knowledgeable, respected profes- sionals who bring integrity and over- sight to the FGUA operations. There has been some criticism that we are not accountable because our board is not elected. This is simply unfair. Our board is subject to all the laws and rules that apply to every local government and similar authority. Our board members are appointed by == uest ; 1"'- ."': elected officials who can change that appointment if they disapprove of their members' actions or perform- ance. This has never happened because the FGUA board members are acting, and have always acted, in the interests of the customers and the local govern- ments they represent. No government agency wants to upset the public and we did not set out to anger our customers. The FGUA is facing the same challenge as every other local government within the state of Florida. That challenge is to manage who pays for growth. Our challenge in Citrus County is paying for growth that has turned out to be 10 times greater than anything in the past The FGUA budgeted for dou- ble growth based on the due diligence performed prior to its acquisition of the Citrus system. We, however, are now faced with unprecedented growth beyond any projections. Reports and rumors have suggested that we failed to budget properly or we failed in the due diligence in acquiring the facilities. In fact, the current growth rates in the Citrus County utili- ties has outstripped all predictions, and has left most governments strug- gling with the same issue of "who pays for growth." In staying true to our commitment of no rate increase to our existing cus- tomers, we have taken the position that growth must pay for itself. Our goal has and always will be to fund the unparal- leled expansion in our systems in Citrus County with minimal or no impact on our current rate customers. We believe that the programs that we have developed in Citrus County will ensure our ability to maintain water and sewer customer rates at the pres- ent levels in the foreseeable future. As with any program it has been modified based on public input and direction from the Citrus County Commission. Even though we have had numerous meetings with the develop- ers, builders and various homeowner groups, it has obviously not been enough. The FGUA's commitment will be to work closely with the customers and the county commissioners as we move forward in addressing this chal- lenge. Even though many things could have been done differently, we are at a point in our attempt to respond to the unexpected growth where creative funding solutions are our best option. The FGUA will continue to improve in its communication efforts with the community. We are planning on form- ing a utility advisory board that will consist of representatives from the cus- tomers and will help the FGUA in responding to the future challenges confronting our community. The Citrus County Water and Wastewater Utility Regulatory Board will meet the first of August and we'll be there to present the proposed pro- gram. We are committed to working through this process, to improving communication, and to restoring the good working relationship we have always had with Citrus County. We will work hard to re-earn the trust of the Citrus County Commission and re- establish a solid relationship with our customers. We look forward to working with you.

Congress poised to take modest action on health W while comprehensive health care reform seemingly remains a distant dream, Congress is working on some incremental steps that could save lives and improve insurance coverage. Three overriding problems beset the health system: a rising tide of uninsured Americans, probably numbering 50 million; sa quality care/medical-errors, crisis that kills up to 90,000 people a year; and exploding health costs. . Last week, for example, a Harvard University study showed wide varia- tions between hospitals .in various ' cities in the treatment of heart dis- eases and pneumonia, ranging from 95 percent effective in Boston to 60 percent or less in some cities in Morton K California. 4-, , Another study showed that nearly 12,000 patients in Pennsylvania hos- V014 pitals contracted infections, costing $2 billion for treatment and causing at least 1,500 preventable deaths. Medical errors are ripe targets for lawsuits, which raise insurance costs, drive doctors out of business and inhibit free discussion among pro- fessionals about needed improvements. While Republicans want to cap medical mal- practice awards the House is due to vote next week on another bill to do so Democrats are adamantly opposed, partly out of loyalty to the trial lawyer lobby, which leads them to regular- ly block such legislation in the Senate. However, last week there was a partial break- through: House-Senate agreement on a bill to protect the content of future professional dis- cussion of errors and "near-misses" from being used as evidence in lawsuits. The agreement was worked out in an all-night negotiating session between aides to Sen. Mike Enzi (R-Wyo.) and Sen. Edward Kennedy (D- Mass.), chairman and ranking member the . Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, and aides to Reps. Joe Barton (R- Texas) and John Dingell (D-Mich.), chairman and ranking member on the House Energy and Commerce Committee. The resulting patient-safety bill is scheduled for action in the House this week as part of its "health week" agenda. In the meantime, for years, experts have said that one answer to the quality/medical-errors cri- sis is information technology making medical records and orders digital so they can be easily read and transferred to people who need them. The health industry, though steeped in advanced technology for everything from artifi- cial hips to brain implants to nuclear diagnos- tics, has trailed other industries like financial services and transportation in computerizing its records. FedEx packages and bank records are easily traceable online, and people can buy stock and even renew driver's licenses electronically But 95 percent of doctors' records are still filed on paper, even if their billing systems are comput- erized. The computer industry is moving into the field energetically, offering a blazing array of hardware and software systems that are now creating a new problem: They can't all talk to one another. Health and Human Services Secretary Mike Leavitt likens the situation to the early days of railroading in America, when companies had different gauges of track, and freight and pas- sengers had to transfer in mid-journey because locomotives and cars couldn't continue. Earlier this year, Leavitt appointed a commis- sion to work out standards, and last week the Senate HELP Committee worked out bipartisan legislation to codify the HHS action and provide grants to hospitals to upgrade IT systems, estab- lish quality measurement systems and create rewards for providers who improve the quality of care patients receive. The legislation is a compromise between bills co-sponsored by Senate Majority .- Leader Bill Frist (R-Tenn.) and Sen. ..H.. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) and by Enzi and Kennedy -. Given some willingness to compro- mise on patient safety and IT, the ideal would be for Republicans and Democrats to work out an even larg- er agreement on medical malprac- ,l& tice allowing caps on malpractice .ondracke damages while going even further to ,,.- -,. ensure quality care and encouraging states to de-license providers who CES habitually commit errors. As part of "health week," the House is also scheduled to take up measures to expand health insurance coverage and reduce costs, although the chances for bipartisan progress appear slim unless changes are made in the bills' design. > One bill would authorize creation of "associa- tion health plans," permitting.businesses in the same industry to form insurance pools. Another would allow individuals to shop for insurance across state lines. Both bills are hotly opposed by state-insurance commissioners and many governors because they allow insurance companies to escape state regulation. . The AHP bill is opposed by BlueCross BlueShield insurers who now write most small- business policies. The opposition is likely to assure that, even if the bills pass the House, they are likely to die in the Senate. Their chances of passage and of helping the uninsured would improve if they were modified to allow for state regulation to guarantee the insurers' financial solvency The House next week is not considering a GOP bill that would expand health savings accounts r- a surprisingly fast-growing device to allow uninsured persons to buy high-deductible insurance policies and establish tax-exempt accounts to pay their medical bills. According to a study by America's Health Insurance Plans, the number of persons cov- ered by HSAs more than doubled last year, up to more than 1 million, although that does not begin to dent the total number of the chronical- ly uninsured, estimated at 20 million to 30 mil- lion. Fifty million is the estimated number of uninsured at some time during a year. The GOP's bill to expand HSAs would give tax credits to moderate-income persons and small businesses to establish HSAs and also make "catastrophic" insurance premiums deductible. Republicans are convinced that HSAs will help reduce overall medical costs by requiring individuals to pay ordinary medical bills out-of- pocket and shop for the most economical care. Democrats traditionally oppose the plans as threatening to existing employer-based and gov- ernment health plans. The House is not considering the HSA bill now because of its cost $125 billion through 10 years. The bill deserves passage, even if it is only a partial answer to the problems of cost and the uninsured. Congress isn't ready to solve problems in a big way, but small steps are better than none.

Sound OFF Scalding satire This is in regards to a couple days ago someone had wrote in about how the City of In- verness put a "boil water (notice)' on and the person wrote in that they thought it wasn't right and they had to be sent to the emergency room for a scalded throat and a scalded tongue. I just wanted to put in there that the City of Inverness does the "boiling water (notices) for people's own safe- ty. The person should have let the water cool before drinking it. Put ice cubes in it or put it in the refrigerator before they tried to drink it. Dial for ICE For those who have cell phones, it would be a good idea to list your person to noti- fy in case of emergency in the list of people to call in your cell phone, under the title "ICE." that way, when emer- gency personnel are trying to find out whom to contact, they can look up "ICE" on your phone and dial the number that's listed there to contact your contact person.

While the structure in question was reportedly permitted in error, it's just strange that residences with patios and porches can ring the bay, derelict ves- sels can deteriorate in the bay, and uncouth people can cruise the bay, yet this is deemed a ddclass6 structural faux pas and incites code enforcement folks to slap a $21,150 fine on the owner to force its removal.

When you take polls about the space program, people say that they really are for it If you then add, "are you willing to pay for it?," the results dramat- ically change. The bottom line is that NASA and those of us who have supported it over the years in the Congress have not done a good job in selling the program. Let's hope with this new rebirth of the program we can make amends and Americans will once again rally around something we all can be proud of.

WINDOW Continued from Page 1C ugly head and we had to leave early. Are we getting more active weather systems, or is this stuff just following me around? Last weekend, I was driving- through north Cocoa Beach on AIA approaching the cruise ship port when a huge thun- derstorm appeared in front of us. All of a sudden, a little tor- nado came bouncing along the road. My eldest daughter Jessica was with me and she's extremely observant "Dad, what's that?" she asked. "That would be a tornado," I said very calmly Jessica is a very smart young lady, and she's not one to scream or yell during moments of high stress. She is calm and analytical. Sarcasm occasion- ally works its way into her con- versation. "So what do you think we should do?" she asked with great understatement. Since the tornado appeared to be working its way straight down AIA toward our vehicle, I assumed there were two major options. First, I could continue to drive straight into the torna- do and we, along with our vehi- cle, could be picked up by the winds and tossed into the Atlantic Ocean or I could get the heck out of there. I chose the latter. Without so much as a yelp, I turned the car into a parking lot and began to work my way back into the neighborhoods. We were going east, and I knew there really wasn't much wiggle room. The Atlantic Ocean was just a few hundred yards away. But driving away from the tornado seemed like an extremely smart option. If nothing else, I have great sur- vival instincts. "Dad, what's that in front of us?" the calm and observant Jessica asked again. "That appears to be the tor- nado," I replied with a small amount of irritation. Apparently tornadoes, just like Florida drivers, don't pay any attention to highways or rights of way. The little tornado had jumped off of AIA and decided to follow us through the neighborhood along our escape route. My weather-related persecu- tion complex was in high gear. I turned the car .around again and started driving back in our original direction. Debris flew all over the place, but we managed to find safety back on AIA. It turned out to be just anoth- er day at the beach with Mother Nature letting us know who's the boss. Daughter Jessica is not sure she wants to go driving with me anytime soon.

Everything from the terrorist attacks in London to the unexpected move by China to revalue its currency to oil prices lingering around $60 a barrel has. done little to sway the market. Instead, investors seem to be focusing exclusive- ly on the bright economic outlook. It has proven to be a winning strategy - so far. Both the Nasdaq composite index and Standard & Poor's 500 index have vaulted in recent weeks to levels not seen in four years, and other major market indexes also have been trend- ing higher The healthy economy has been ti primary catalyst fueling recent stock gains. Although the Federal Reserv has raised short-term interest rat nine times since June 2004, invest have chosen to interpret that as a sig that the central bank can keep econor ic growth accelerating while inflation remains in check. "Despite all the things that there ar to worry about, things are particular good in the market and that is because the economy has taken the center stage," said Milton Ezrati, a senior ec nomic strategist at the money manag ment firm Lord Abbett.

Hill is one of the nine employees who builds the custom 20-foot shallow water boats for which Young Boats has become known. Inglis boat builders find their CHERI HARRIS charris@chronicleonline.com Chronicle N obody said that starting a new business was easy. When Robb Young and his family started their boat building company in Inglis, he did his homework. He tried to find a niche in the competitive market by specializing in custom, shal- low-water boats that could also venture a little ways off- shore in good weather. Young believed that if he designed and built the best boat he could, orders would start coming in after the first boat show. Imagine his surprise when he didn't get any orders after the first boat show. Or second. Or third. Young said it took about four shows and five months before Young Boats had its first sale. "That was a shocker," Young said. Building dreams Young, 33, grew up in Clearwater, where his father, Brad, ran a bait shop. He dreamed for most of his life about building boats, probably because he spent a great deal of time around the water Whenever he went to a boat show, he would analyze different boat designs and often thought of ways they could be improved. He studied naval architec- ture and ocean engineering and earned a master's degree in small craft design from the Florida Institute of Technology in Melbourne. Young said that he and his brothers, Ryan and Russ, all worked as commercial grouper fishermen to help pay for college. After he graduated, Young worked several years for Morgan Yachts in St Petersburg. Then he decided Smpany's niche to do what he had always wanted to do design and build boats. Young started the company in 1998, but he also worked full time as a commercial grouper fisherman in Crystal River until 2000, when his family sold the commercial license and their fishing boat At first, Young worked with one employee to create the molds for the Young 20, a 20-. foot flats boat. He used wood and fiber glass to create the 14 original molds used to create the boat, including the hull, deck and cockpit He said startup costs for the company were about $20,000 for a metal commercial build- ing, $20,000 to design and Please see FAMILY/Page 7D Robb Young stands on the deck of one of his 20-foot shal- low-water boats with his moth- er Rosemary, left, and wife Dante, right, in their showroom. Brett Wattles CITRUS COUNTY EDC Tech group updates focus During the past 16 months, the Citrus County Economic Development Council (EDC), the Citrus Levy Marion Workforce Connection (CLM) and the Citrus County cam- pus of Central Florida Community College (CFCC) have worked together to establish the Citrus Inform- ation Technology Alliance (CITA). This was done in hope of establishing a forum for those companies working in the information technology (IT) sector to have an arena to discuss the needs of the IT industry. Citrus County en- joys a relatively large num- ber of IT-sector companies, along with an even larger number of companies and organizations with IT depart- ments. Up until this time, CITA met monthly from 11:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. on the second Thursday, with a working lunch provided by the EDC, CLM or CFCC. All IT-related companies and organiza- tions of all sizes with IT departments have been and continue to be encouraged to attend and participate in the meetings. Please consider this your invitation to do so if your firm is involved in IT activities. At the June CITA meeting, it was decided the group will Please see EDC/Page 7D Bruce Williams SMART MONEY Come to terms with insurance DEAR BRUCE: I am 70 years old and have a small-term insurance policy (not my only coverage) purchased through my credit union. I was recently notified that my term policy would expire when I become 75. I was offered the option of converting a portion or the entire policy amount to whole life. I am in good health and do not want to lose the coverage should I live beyond 75 years. I do not need to make this decision until just before my 75th birthday; however, I was told by a company representative that each additional year of age will significantly increase the policy's premi- um.

Now, individuals and families seeking services or volunteer opportunities can call 2-1-1, a universally recognizable 3-digit number that makes a critical connection between callers and the appropriate community- based organization and govern- ment agencies. "The partnership between Board of Citrus County Commissioners, Shared Services Alliance and United Way of Citrus County focuses on making services more acces- sible to those in need," said John Mannish, Executive Director of the United Way of Citrus County. "With 2-1-1, we are breaking down the barriers between those who need help and those who can help them." "The tragedy of 9/11 and the devastating hurricane season of 2004 showed us, more than ever, how important it is for members of a community to know where to call for help or to volunteer in the wake of a disas- ter," said John Mannish. "To aid in relief efforts or to help with the everyday issues of people in need, the 2-1-1 system streamlines access to resources. It makes it easier for those in need to find the right services and for potential volunteers to get connected with organiza- tions that need help."

A hefty cash stake can dent long- term returns and may irk individuals who wish to be fully invested at all times, but experts say it's not always a negative. While a large chunk of unin- vested change could be a warning sig- nal that a portfolio has grown too large too quickly, it might also reflect a disciplined investment strategy, said Todd Trubey, a mutual fund ana- lyst with Morningstar Inc. In the latter case, cash levels tend to grow when valuations are on the rise and bargain-priced stocks are scarce. "We are seeing a lot of managers, especially those for whom valuation is really important ... build up cash stakes that are higher than historical averages," Trubey said. "It's some- thing we are seeing some very good managers do right now." According to a survey conducted by Merrill Lynch in early July, 19 per- cent of all fund managers describe March, but he'd "struck out" in attempts to find suitable investments. In mutual funds, the same has been themselves as overweight in cash, true for many small-cap value portfo- and the mean cash balance in portfo- lios. Cash levels at FPA Capital lios stands at a relatively high 4.1 per- (FPPTX), which closed to new cent.

Some of the Ariel fund caution could be due to inflation wor- ries; 37 percent of those surveyed expect global core inflation to be higher a year from now, versus 22 per- cent in June. There may also be some doubts about the ability of companies to raise prices. Many value-minded money man- agers have seen their cash levels rise over the last year amid a dearth of attractive investment opportunities. Even Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Inc. ended 2004 with $43 billion in cash equivalents. Having such a large cash stake is "not a happy position," Buffett lamented in his annual letter to shareholders in (ARGFX) climbed to the mid-20 per- cent range during the last quarter, though it has since dropped to 16 per- cent as the firm found new opportu- nities, said Charlie Bobrinskoy, vice chairman of Ariel Capital Management. Ariel's rise in cash levels was part- ly due to a number of key holdings being purchased by large corpora- tions and private equity firms, Bobrinskoy said. These included casino operator Caesars Enter- tainment Inc., acquired by Harrah's Entertainment Inc. last month, and high-end department store retailer Neiman Marcus Group Inc., pur- chased by a group of private equity firms in May. Other holdings were sold off as they reached their price targets amid the recent run-up in small cap stocks, he said. "Both of those two factors are very nice problems to have: companies being acquired, producing a great return for your investors, and compa- nies having their stocks perform so strongly they reach your valuation requirements," Bobrinskoy said. "The second part of this equation is that we have found it challenging to find new names that meet our valua- tion and quality criteria." At Ariel, where the motto is "slow and steady wins the race," buy-and- hold is the rule, and portfolio turnover is quite low about 20 per- cent, compared to about 200 percent at other funds. The typical holding period for a stock in this fund is about five years, so when manager John Rogers buys a new issue, he doesn't do it lightly. "If we thought that we were no longer able to find good opportunities to invest our cash in new names, we'd have to consider closing the fund. But we are starting to find new names," Bobrinskoy said. "Secondly, small cap value has had a very good run for a very long time. Those conditions tend not to last for- ever, which means there could be more opportunities to invest in good quality companies in the future." High cash levels are not exclusive to small cap offerings. In fact, a dou- ble-digit cash or bond stake is typical for the Clipper Fund (CFIMX), a large value portfolio that serves as a core holding for many investors. In the quest for investments trading below fair value, this team-managed offering frequently takes large posi- tions in controversial companies, and its managers aren't afraid to let cash collect if they can't find stocks that meet their criteria. Clipper currently holds 26.9 percent in cash. A high level of cash should raise a red flag for individual investors when it develops very rapidly, said Trubey, of Morningstar, because that could be a sign the manager is unable to con- trol the money coming in. There's less cause for alarm when cash stakes build over time because a manager has chosen to hold off on purchases for valuation reasons. Whether a fund's high cash stake is OK with you is a personal preference. Investors who like to exercise a lot of control of their portfolios, including how much cash they hold, might pre- fer funds that are fully invested. Others might rather leave the mat- ter to professional investors, but they should always be aware of how it fits in with the rest of their portfolio.

Harley, Buell extend helping hand To commemorate Harley- Davidson's 25th anniversary as a national sponsor for the Muscular Dystrophy Association, Buell of Crystal River will be selling special Harley and MDA wristbands to benefit the MDA. Buell of Crystal River will offer orange wristbands to customers who make a donation to the MDA. Additionally, customers who come in for a test ride on a Harley- Davidson or Buell motorcycle dur- ing the "Demo Days for MDA" pro- motion can also receive a Harley- Davidson collector's edition wrist- band. "We're proud to participate in this latest fund-raiser for the MDA. We hope to continue to raise money and support the programs and services until a cure is found and no child or adult suffers from neu- romuscular disease," said Derek Kelley of Buell of Crystal River. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of each bracelet will go to support the life-saving research, comprehensive medical care for children and adults with neuromus- cular disease and the MDA sum- mer camps. In 2004, MDA-funded research made several breakthroughs, including news that the gene for a specific protein can preserve strength and prolong life in mice that have amyotrophic lateral scle- rosis (Lou Gehrig's disease). That protein is now being tested in peo- ple with ALS. The wrist bands will be available throughout the summer while sup- plies last. Since 1980, Harley has raised more than $50 million for the MDA through its family of dealers, cus- tomers, suppliers and employees as a national sponsor.

You've indicated that you want to continue the coverage. As often as not, when one takes a term policy out one needs more insurance and it may very well be that you still need the coverage. If it's just to leave an insurance estate to heirs, that may be something you should reconsider. The agent is telling you correctly that the premium, if converted at 75, will be greater than at 70, but it also should be pointed out that you'd pay a whole lot less in premium for the next five years. You mentioned that this is not your only coverage; at the very least, I would consider how much of an insurance estate you really need and act accordingly. DEAR BRUCE: I am planning to sell my house and will clear $300,000. I am going to move and want to rent for six months or a year to see what shakes out with the housing bubble before purchasing another (less- expensive) house. What do you rec- ommend as the best, safest six-month investment for the money, and what kind of return, should I expect? - N.S., Las Vegas, Nev. DEAR N.S.: As soon as anyone puts the words "best, safest and short- term" into the equation, you have very dramatically reduced your options. On balance, a higher-earning instru- ment of a point or so will not make much difference during the six-month period. Given that, Treasury bills might be a very viable option. They are 100 percent safe and pay a rea- sonable rate of return and they have the added quality of being readily converted (at some cost), even in a shorter period of time, should the need arise. DEAR BRUCE: Due to illness, I decided to retire in 2002. I was eligi- ble for full government pension because I had 27 years in the system. I am now 50. My pension is approxi- mately $24,500 annual gross with $2,922 federal taxes deducted from that In 2003, I earned $15,600 at a part-time job and paid $4,775 in fed- eral tax (including tax on a pension). I had to take out a $2,000 IRA in order to get a $750 refund. I do itemize because of my mort- gage, etc. I did my 2004 taxes in online. I earned only $4,100 part time. I paid $3,461 in federal tax (including tax on my pension). My refund will be $643 (no IRA). For your information, Kentucky exempts pension from tax and I will be refunded all of my Kentucky tax on wages due to low income. It seems the more I work, the less I am ahead. Am I missing something? Why so much federal tax? Any sugges- tions? L.L. in Kentucky. DEAR LL: Your lament is a com- mon one. You clearly understand that your pension is fully taxable and the tax on the pension increases if you earn money outside, since you're taxed on gross income. You say you had to "take out an IRA," but what you really mean is that you were required to save $2,000 in order to reduce your gross adjusted income. That's a pretty decent reward for that savings. That having been said, this is always the lament of all of us, the more we earn, the more we pay. That, is called the progressive system. There are many who would quarrel with it Hands up for a flat tax maybe? DEAR BRUCE: We have -a home that we purchased in 1995 for $176,000 and have put about $100,000 into it. Would you believe it's now easily worth $650,000? There are more- expensive homes popping up in the neighborhood, but I am afraid, as before, this Southern California real estate bubble will burst I would like to sell my house, bank whatever I'm able to net, which is of course tax-free, and wait until the prices go down and buy a cheaper house. On the other hand, I don't want to kick myself for getting out too early and make even more profit. What do you think? - D.B. in California. DEAR D.B.: You have the same problem that people have with the stock market. When is it time to get out? When is it time to cut your loss- es? When is it time to take a profit? No one can answer that for you. My father once gave me a piece of advice that I have yet to find fault with and that is, "nobody ever went broke tak- ing a profit" If you are uncomfortable with the stability of the housing mar- ket, as many are, I see no problem in taking a very substantial profit and sitting on the cash.

OUTLOOK Continued from Page 1D lasting damage to the market. Even some disappointing earnings news from companies considered market bell- wethers, including Microsoft Corp., Citigroup Inc. and Intel Corp., has failed to unnerve investors. All this has left market- watchers wondering what all this bullish behavior means. Is it a sign of resiliency or evi- dence that we are in the final innings of this current market run? In the more optimistic cor- ner sits S&P's chief investment strategist Sam Stovall. He says that small-cap and growth stocks are outperforming the broader market, which sug- gests more gains could be ahead. In addition, he notes that technology and consumer discretionary stocks, which typically perform best early in a market acceleration cycle, are leading the current gains. Others, though, ,think the gains this summer have thrust the market into overbought ter- ritory. Francois Trahan, chief investment strategist at Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc., points to investor sentiment gauges, which he says are too bullish. The Volatility Index (VIX) of the Chicago Board Options Exchange hit a decade-low level of just under 10 last week, down sharply from a reading above 17 in April right before the market began to rally, Trahan said. While that decline indicates some extremely positive sentiment on the part of investors, often when such measures become so bullish it indicates a market correction could be nearing. He also sees red flags in cer- tain measures of momentum. Seventy-nine percent of S&P stocks are now trading above their 10-week moving averages, well ahead of the nearly 15 per- cent reading in April. Anything above 75 percent, he believes,. indicates an overbought mar- ket . "We generally think a good entry point to buy is when there is a great deal of fear in the market," Trahan said, which he points out we are clearly not seeing right now. But even Trahan acknowl- edges that the market could easily go "from overbought to extremely overbought" Given the current mystery of this summer's market, the trouble is that no one really knows what will come.

EDC Continued from Page 1D meet bimonthly, with the first such meeting taking place from 11:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. Aug. 11 in the Jerome Room at CFCC in Lecanto. Res- ervations are necessary in order to have lunch provided and may be made by calling the EDC at 795-2000. Future meetings will be at the same, time and place on Oct. 13 and Dec. 8. As it now stands, CITA meetings dur- ing 2006 will begin on Jan. 12 and con- tinue on the second Thursday of each alternating month. While there are a number of IT-sec- tor companies represented on the alliance, more such companies are needed to ensure the ongoing success of the group. While supporting organ- izations are also important, the input from the IT organizations is the main focus of the alliance in order to repre- sent the needs of the group in terms of support activities such as training and financial support activities. This input will determine the role of the EDC, CLM and CFCC in terms of the training/education curriculum and support activities necessary to imple- ment services to provide trained employees and ongoing services for the IT sector. The stated vision of CITA is, "To become a thriving information tech- nology hub in Florida." The mission of CITA is, "To attract, grow and retain information technology and related businesses and IT employees to Citrus County" CITAs customers include local and external businesses and IT workers. The community will also be a benefit- ing "customer," due to the increased infrastructure development and use. The needs of your business and your input into the CITA process is important; you are encouraged to join us in this effort to serve the needs of the IT sector in Citrus County. We hope to see you Aug. 11, but remem- ber to make reservations by Aug. 9. Brett Wattles is executive director of the Economic Development Council. Contact the EDC at 795-2000. FAMILY Continued from Page 1D build the molds and $20,000 for the industrial property in Inglis. Building boats In 2000, he completed his first Young 20. He said he sold four boats the first year because it was hard to find someone willing to take a chance on a new company. Fortunately, one of his com- pany's first customers was a popular charter boat captain in the Keys. "You 'influence the influ- encers and it helps," Young said. Now, Young has nine full- time employees and is on track to build about 40 boats this year. "It's been a good year," he said. Last September, Young Boats opened a showroom. Young said it takes about eight days and 400 man-hours to build one boat, depending on the rigging. Customers can choose from several different brands of motors, such as Yamaha and Evinrude, as well as different combinations of live wells and dry storage compartments. There are also 180 colors to choose from. Young said many customers opt to match the boat with the pickup truck they will use to tow it. He said the boats range in price from about $35,000 to $43,000, depending on the options. Because Pro-Line boats is in Homosassa and Monterey Boats is in Williston, Young said there is a skilled labor pool available for Young Boats. "That's helped me a lot," he said. While Young is president of the company, it is definitely a family business. His father, who also works in sales for a large cosmetics company, takes customers on test rides. "He is a very good sales- man," Young said. "I'm not a salesman." Ryan, 30, represents Young Boats at boat shows and Russ, 35, an accountant, keeps the books. His mother, Rosemary Young, works part-time in the office along with his wife, Dante, the office manager. Young creates daily work lists for each employee and oversees each step of the boat building process. He said quality control is important because it is less expensive to fix a problem early in the construction process, rather than make, a repair when the boat is near completion. In addition to boat shows and advertising in a fishing magazine, Rosemary Young said customers have also been great advertisers, providing references and sometimes offering test rides to potential buyers. Young said getting help-and references from customers was very important in the beginning because they didn't have many boats available. "We really had no other choice," he said. Next year, Young plans to begin production of a 24-foot bay inshore-style boat with a center console and head. Within three years, Young hopes to increase production to build about 70 boats a year with about 20 full-time employees. His long-term goal is to offer about five custom boat models and continue selling boats fac- tory-direct, rather than using a dealer network.'
