The package contained over eight pounds of marijuana. Keel and 'his wife, Lisah were charged for the offense, which he admitted had been going on for many years. The couple is in the Clay County Jail with Joe's bond at $100,000 and Lisah's at $50,000. The package was first intercepted in Texas where a drug-sniffing dog "hit" on the package, bringing the couple to the attention of the CCSO Narcotics detectives, the United States Postal inspectors and DEA agents. The. investigation continues in an effort to identify and arrest those purchasing the drugs from the couple. On Christmas Eve, 2003, Governor Bush rededicated the 30-year-old minimum- security state penitentiary in Lawtey, Florida, which is the nation's first entirely "faith-based" prison, where every inmate has signed up for intensive religious instruction. Lawtey has the capacity to house 788 inmates. At the time of this report, there were 779 of which 60 were black inmates from Jacksonville. Of these 60 Jacksonville inmates, the oldest one was born on February 17, 1945 and is scheduled to be released on July 20, 2012, and the youngest was born on September 23, 1981 and is due to be released on August 24, 2007. Of the 60 inmates from Jacksonville, 47 are there on drug charges. The next highest offense is theft (37) fol- lowed by robbery (13) and weapon offenses (10). Some have more than one charge but none are there for crime against the elder- ly, fraud/embezzlement, kidnapping, racketeering and sex crimes. Will these men return to Jacksonville, drug free with an attitude to help others avoid making their mis- takes? That is the goal. Pallbearers carry the casket of Mack Freeman, Jr. draped with the United States flag following a Homegoing cele- bration on Tuesday, March 15 at Mt. Sinai Missionary Baptist Church. Interment was held at Edgewood Cemetery. Mack Freeman, Jr.: Father, Friend, Leader By Ron Williams JACKSONVILLE--Many local residents remember Mack Freeman, Jr. as a living legend, one who fought beyond the barriers of racial injustice and political indiffer- ence. On Tuesday, March 15, scores of mourners packed Mt. Sinai Missionary Baptist Church for a Celebration For The Life and Legacy of Freeman, the city's first Black television newsman, who was also an educator and activist. Freeman, born January 12, 1938 in Mariana, Fla., died on March 8. He was 67. He was a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, NAACP, SCLC, a Florida delegate of the Democratic Party, Edward Waters College Alumni Association, and the Coalition for Respect. "Mack was one of a few persons who didn't try to build himself up as an individual," said Harold Baker, former Executive at WFGA/WTLV TV 12 and the man who broke the color barrier in local television journalism by hiring Freeman as a reporter in 1968. In a touching poem printed in the program, Freeman's life-long companion, Brenda Roundtree, wrote "Your words fled one may be for the position, the employers may not wish a person wearing body art to represent the compa- ny. The career professionals recommend that an appli- cant should minimize anything that could dampen his/her chances of getting hired. Federal,Judge Grants Edward Waters Ability To Remain Accredited Through Fight Judge Timothy Corrigan, a federal judge, in Jacksonville, ruled that Edward Waters College (EWC) would remain accredited through its pursuit of a law- suit against the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. The judge said that after hearing evidence and arguments from both EWC and SACS, "the college has shown a substantial likelihood that it will prove at trial, that the association denied the college due process in the procedures the association employed to expel the college from association membership." IRS Announces the 2005 Dirty Dozen The Internal Revenue Service unveiled its annual listing of notorious tax scams, the "Dirty Dozen," reminding taxpayers to be wary of schemes that prom- ises to eliminate taxes or otherwise sound too good to be true. of comfort, great sense of humor and awesome smile are buried deep within my heart. Freeman's daughter, Monique Freeman Fuentes, remem- bered her father as a fearless leader, political activist, moti- vator and advocate for education. Perhaps the most moving tribute given to Freeman was from his son Tony Freeman. "He was more than a Civil Rights activist. He was a sur- geon...He dissected information. He was a genius. My father understood that there was a past and a presence. He understood how power corrupts, and he knew that before folk became rich and famous, they would lick you and me. He loved being black," said Tony Freeman. Left to carry out Freeman's legacy along with Brenda Roundtree (Jacksonville, FL.), Monique Freeman Fuentes (David), (Jacksonville, FL.) and Tony Freeman (Jacksonville, FL) are his children Cassandra Freeman (New York, N.Y.); Bishop Anthnoy Burgess (New York, N.Y.); Rev. Leslie Sterling (Boston, MA); Stardom Grissolm-Harris (Ronnie), (Clarksville, TN); Shannon Shelton (Boston, MA); Carlos Fields (Stephanie), (Jacksonville, FL); grandchildren; Aunt Cherry Collier.

Newsweek, in its April 16, 2001 edition, went so far as to name Cardinal Francis Rinse of Nigeria as the prelate, who could potentially step into this role as leader of more than 1 billion Christians, making up 17.4 percent of.the world's population. It would be wonderful, if the Black Cardinal did become head of the world's largest body of Christians, but he would not be the first Black pope. There have been three Black popes, including Victor I, who fixed Sundays as the date for the celebration of Easter, according to the Original Black Heritage Bible. What better time than now during the Lenten Season to correct some of the major inaccuracies about Blacks and their contributions to Christendom? Historically, these discrepancies and omis- sions have produced severe consequences. Lies provided ainmuni-- tion for slaveholders to treat Blacks as .human animals without souls. Moreover lies and half-truths have resulted in too many Blacks thinking of Christianity as a "White man's religion," when from its very conception in the I Upper Room in Jerusalem Africans--as well as women-- participated and continued in the expansion of the Christian faith. Besides Saint Victor I, the 15th Pope, there was Militiades, the 32nd pope. During his reign, the Roman Emperor Constantine was converted to Christianity in 313 A.D and Militiades received permission from Constantine for Christians to worship free of persecution. .Saint Gelasius I, the 49th pope was born in Rome of African parents and was one' of the most productive popes of the fifth century. He settled the dispute over the use of wine at Holy Communion, allowing it as an option. His writings on papal authority are still current. To their credit, Catholics celebrate many Black saints. Only the Vatican can declare someone a saint in the Catholic Church. Nomination only begins the process. At least two certified miracles must be attributed to the indi- vidual, except for martyr- dom. Unfortunately, many Black denominations are either unaware of this rich history or do not deem it wor- thy of teaching. As Christians reflect on the passion and suffering of Christ this is also a proper time to horror the many Black martyrs that died protecting their Christian beliefs. Black, Beautiful and Holy Rev. Barbara Reynolds It is a sad commentary that while Blacks are being taught how fortunate we are that White missionaries came to Africa to save us in the 19th century, African Christians were being torn by lions and sawed in half for their devout faith in the first and second centuries after the Crucifixion of Christ. Two African women, Perpetua and Feliciti, are among th9se honored as saints. Despite threats of per- secution and death, Perpetua and her maidservant, Feliciti, refused to worship the Roman gods. For their offenses, in 202 A.D. they were thrown to the lions, but the lions refused to attack. Although the crowd chanted for their release, Roman offi- cials beheaded them. Some Africans, such as Saint Charles Lwanga are recent martyrs. He was one of 22 Ugandans burned to death on June 3, 1886 for his unwillingness to submit to sexual acts he deemed immoral. As a child I attended an elementary school in Columbus, Ohio named after Saint Cyprian, who was Bishop of Carthage, a city in Northern Africa in the early third century. As primate of Africa, Cyprian brought his scholarly talents to his min- istry, becoming one of the greatest African 'writers in church history. His service to the church brought him in opposition with the Roman government, who ordered him beheaded... In this Holy season, we should also celebrate two Black men, who were, among . .. ' C*,m AIT :i". .. , NEWI SEI~Irs 1000 '4, 14 ~ 11 o If. .... , ?ir 'I' those who played an impor- tant role in the ministry of Jesus. Simon, the Canaanite,: was a Jew by nationality but Black through genealogy since he was a direct descen- dant of Ham, the Black son of Noah. Simon is also identi- fled in some biblical versions by his political group, The Zealots. Yet other than- in books, such as The Bladk Biblical Heritage by John L. Johnson, Simon's identity as one of the original 12 disci- ples and an Apostle is a well- kept secret. More well known is Simon of Cyrene, an African Jew who helped the Messiah bear his cross to Mt. Calvary. SNothing more is said about him in Scripture except for the mention of his two sons, Rufus and Alexander, who also became leaders in the Christian church. Even Hollywood's Passion of Christ allowed a darker char- acter to play the role of this Simdn in a token bow to his- torical accuracy. During Christianity's most holy season what better time to review the sacred role blacks have played in the spread of Christianity. Maybe this knowledge will help' us to remember that while it was once said that Black is beau- Stiful, long before that it was holy as well. Rev.

A perfect day for devoted husband, father, foreign languages teacher, school administrator, community leader and marvelous person Mr. Walter White's 80th birthday (unbelievably as it may seem for Mr. White seems ageless). Friends and family filled to capacity Arlington's Blue Cypress Club House for a celebratory program with Ms. Beverly White, niece of the honoree, presiding. Other par- ticipants on the program were: Ms. Pauline Brooks, Pastor GR. Gaston, Reverend F.L. Waters, Marvin White, Martha Brown and Brother Johnny Bartley. The United Brothers of Christ provided music for the after- noon. It was very fitting to celebrate Mr. White's birthday in Arlington, as his family were pioneer landowners in the Arlington area that provided land for much of Arlington and Regency development. Mr. White is a trustee of the family's existing land holdings. Bor on March 3, 1925 in Jacksonville, Mr. White was educated in the Duval County Public Schools graduating from Stanton High School. A FAMU Rattler Mrs. White received a BA degree there. He received the Master of Arts degree from New York's Columbia University and studied further at Hamilton College, Jacksonville University and the University of North Florida. Mr. White's professional career as a teacher and principal provided many (including this writer) their first exposure to the foreign languages. He is fondly remembered as Monsieur Blanc or Sefior Blanco. Through the years Mr. White has been honored as a dis- tinguished alumnus from his alma mater Florida A. & M. University (FAMU). He is listed on the Hall of Fame and Wall of Distinction at FAMU and received the FAMU President's Medallion for Outstanding Service. Mr. White affiliations include the Boy Scouts, YMCA, Urban League, Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, NAACP life membership and a lifetime membership with Mt. Zion United Methodist Church. At this resplendent birthday celebration, surrounded by his lovely wife Mrs. Sophie White, son Gualterio White, daughter-in-law Mrs. Sylvia White, grandchildren Terri Carter and Thursal White, his sisters, nieces, nephews and loads of friends, Monsieur Blanc/Sefior Blanco in his always-humble manner was indeed pleased and above all grateful for his many blessings. "Kappa Alpha Psi's 11th Annual Golf Tournament" It was Founder's Weekend for the members of the local Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. Along with the usual founder's activities there was the 11th Annual Golf Tournament chaired by Dr. William Cody. Assisting Dr. Cody with registration for the event were his lovely 'Silhouette' Mrs. Betty Cody and Silhouette Mrs. Tina Daniels the charming wife of Kappa Alpha Psi member Henry Daniels. The Grand Polemarch Of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Samuel Hamilton from Manchester, Connecticut was on hand for the weekend events with his most gracious 'Silhouette' Mrs. Sandy Hamilton. The golf activity at the Mill Cove Golf Club raised funds that provide funding for the fraternities Scholarship and Guide-Right Program, a mentoring program for teenage boys. Participants in the tournament included Kappa Alpha Psi members, local and out-of-town guests. Mrs. Esther Wilson of Orlando, FL travels to the First Coast each year for the Kappa Alpha Psi tournament. When we spoke with Mrs. Wilson we learned that she is no novice to the game as she has been golfing for the past thir- ty-one years. Among the winners at the tournament were: First Place Net-Glen Warren, Dr. Herman Miller, Hal Callin and Dennis Guidi; Second Place Net-Ted Thomas, 'Andy' Anderson, Tommie Chandler, and Freddie Mitchell; Third Place Net- Carl Whitney, Curtis Parker and Morris Rogers; First Place Gross Overall ('Tommie Chandler's Team'-Charlie Revels, Davis Barclay, Perry Havener and Bud McCleskey; 2nd Place Gross Winners- Amr Asker, Mark Hurt, Kamaal Arshad and Roy Poellnitz; Third Place Gross-Brian McWilliams, Mike Soha, Sr., Mike Soha, Jr. and Lee Rosenberg.

Most of the families expressed very positive feelings toward the funeral director for the serv- ices rendered during their bereavement. The authors con- clude that the funeral directors' experience with grief reactions make then skilled in offering solace to grieving families. -This role as counselor/com- fotter may be more 'important than ever before. The increasing isolation of people in our society, and the fractionalization of the faminll often make the needs of the bereaved very acute. The mod- em funeral director is aware of and sensitive to these needs. Often, because of frequent experience, working with griev- ing families, the director can make an invaluable contribution to meeting these needs A.B. COLEMAN I MORTUARY, INC.

Jesse Jackson, Sr. to obtain 1 million signa- tures to give to Congress and the president to renew the Voting Rights Act by August 6, the 40th anniversary of its signing into law by President Lyndon Johnson. This campaign was rolled recently out at the 40th Anniversary of "Bloody Sunday" in Selma, Ala. As most of us now know, it was that scene of unspeakable brutality against civil rights workers, flooding into the living rooms of millions of Americans through the device of television. That created the sentiment for the passage of a new civil rights act. Bloody Sunday, was an act of personal and collective responsibility, unrecognized by many who call for that today. In fact, the Black liberation movement that comprised move- ments for civil rights, and others proposing more systemic change, were filled with such acts of personal and collective responsibility that went unnoticed. But Bloody Sunday was noticed and it has lived as a symbol of a peoples movement that sought to acquire the unfet- tered right to vote as an equal human and civil right. As usual, the launching of 1 million signature campaign for the renewal of the VRA is a brilliant idea by Jackson, begun early enough to begin the campaign for the renewal of the Act, since important provisions of it 'expire in 2007. Let's be clear: this year is the 40th anniversary of the Act, but important provisions of it expire in 2007. This is so because the Voting Rights act, though passed in 1965, was amended in 1970 and 1982 and some of the provisions added in 1982 were to remain in force for 25 years -2007. I will keep writing about this because there is a lot of confusion about this in the Black community. On many talk shows, I encounter people who think that the voting rights of Black people will end in 2007. That is not so, because the right of Blacks to vote was enact- ed by the 15th Amendment to the Constitution, passed in 1870. It said that: "The right of cit- izens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude." This amendment remained in force until the Civil Rights movement and many Blacks voted in Northern elec- tions (some in Southern elections) during that time. But most Blacks, especially in the South, were excluded from the polls. The Voting Rights Act was passed as a modern enforcement measure to open up voting to all Blacks. So, I am suggesting that people can go to the Web site (civilrights.org) to get accurate information on what the provisions of the VRA will be coming to an end ion 2007 unless they are renewed. One of these provisions is Section 5, that called on the states covered by the Act in 1965, to submit all changes to their electoral systems to the Justice Department; another of the 1982 amendments provided for bilingual translation of voting materials and assistance at the polls; and another provided the Justice Department with the authority to send federal voting examiners into states to monitor elections. In light of what happened in 2000 and 2004 in Florida, Ohio and in other states, it is clear that not only are these provisions needed, there needs to be some action eliminating the exclusion of convicted felons from voting. There are cases now in the court that ask the ques- tion whether excluding felons from voting does not constitute a "voting requirement" or test that was outlawed in Section 4 of the VRA. And although the Supreme Court recently refused to hear such a case, it will come again. It should also be considered as an added measure in the renewal of the VRA. Let us join Rev. Jackson's campaign. Get the petitions from his \\ebsite (rainbowpush.lorg) or call his office in Chicago or Washington. DC and let's get going.

Knowing this, Edith P. Mitchell, M.D., an oncologist at Thomas Jefferson University, became the force behind an educational film, The Colon Cancer Puzzle: Putting all the Right Pieces Together to Beat It, now available to physicians and healthcare professionals to educate their African- American patients and the community at-large about col- orectal cancer and the importance of early detection. Despite advances in treatments, incidence rates, for African Americans.are increasing. In recent years, colorec- tal cancer incidence has increased 46 percent among African-American men and 10 percent among African- American women. African-Americans are more likely to' be diagnosed with colorectal cancer in its more advanced stages when there are fewer treatment options available, and they are less likely to live five or more years after being diagnosed than other pop- ulations, according to the Cancer Research and Prevention Foundation. Research indicates several reasons for this: Environmental factors, access to diagnostic testing and healthcare, cultural factors that may delay diagnosis or affect' treatment choices, biological features of: the disease, and lack of physician communication. ********* ** First Data Western Union Foundation, Western Union Provide Aid To Flood Victims In Guyana DENVER -- The First Data Western Union Foundation and Western Union Financial Ser\ ices.

This rain left more than 400,000 people half the country's population inundated with dirty flood waters. In a country that lies six feet below sea level, the disaster left nine dead and an estimated $2 million in damage. Relief agencies including the Red Cross and businesses' like Grace Kennedy Remittance Ser\ ices rushed to provide aid to the residents of Guyana. Ho\\ e\ er. more assistance is needed to combat food shortages. to prevent and treat water- borne illnesses, to provide potable water, and to build tem- porary housing for those left homeless. To support The relief effort, Western Union, its corporate foundation and its agent, Grace Kennedy Remittance Services, are providing a combined grant of $60,000 to the Internationfal Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies designated specifically to relief efforts in Guyana.

"Social Security gives people with lower earnings a greater return on whatthey paid in, and African Americans on average have lower incomes.' In fact, thanks to Social Security, African American seniors are better off, relative to whites, than younger or middle-aged African Americans. But private accounts would not continue these progressive benefits. In addition, private accounts would not make up for the drastic Social Security benefit cuts proposed by Republicans, according to the Congressional Budget Office, once the risk is taken into account. Finally, private accounts do not include the annual cost-of-living guarantee in Social Security, which would jeopardize retirement security for African Americans," said Congresswoman Tubbs Jones (D-OH). "Americans United and those who care about protecting Social Security are not going to allow the administration or others seeking to privatize Social Security to target African Americans with dishonest misleading information about Social Security.

This young lady 7%. has been blessed with natural beauty that is so breath taking, most men can only look and shake their heads in amazement! Were talk- ing about Meagan Good, of course. She is a personal favorite of my photographer Andre' and myself because her friendly, sweet nature is as pure as her stunning fine looks. A native San Fernando Valley girl, Good started acting at age 4 in commercials and to date has done over sixty of them. Her first TV role was as a series regular on the hit sitcom "Cousin Skeeter." She was a prime time regular playing Sarah's best friend "Katie," on the WB show "Rasing Dad." Good has guest starred on many TV shows such as "Moesha," "Touched By An Angel," "The Steve Harvey Show," "The Division" and "The Parenthood" to name a few. On the big silver screen, you have seen her starring in FRI- "' DAY, HOUSE PARTY, THE SECRET LIFE OF GIRLS, EVE'S BAYOU, for which she received an NAACP Image Award and a Hollywood Reporter nomination. She has also starred in DELIVER Meagan Good (Photo 2005 Andre' B. US FROM EVA, BIKER BOYZ, YOU GOT SERVED and THE Murray/A Bern Agency Photo) COOKOUT. Good's latest movie D.E.B.S. is about four young ladies who were recruited by the U.S. Government to join an underground academy that trains girls to become secret agents. Good plays Max, the squad leader. She also has the biggest gun and when asked if she requested the biggest weapon Good explains, "No, that's the way the script was written. Max was a borderline psychotic and always the first one to pull her gun. The leader of the D.E.B.E.S., She's just like that, you know? Actually, when I first saw the guns, I knew they were going to be heavy but I was determined to hold them anyway no matter how many hours. I was determined to learn how to shoot them and everything. When the guy saw how small I was and offered smaller guns I said no." After Good became familiar with her weapon, she was using it as a lifting weight between shoot- ing takes. While they were training with the guns, Good's instructor was impressed that she was a dead on bull's eye, expert shot. It must run in the blood because her real life policeman father was a sniper in Viet Nam. Good is still young and young looking enough to play teenage characters as she has in most of her films and TV roles. Does this pressure her to pursue older roles? She responds, "Right now I feel like I'm not in a rush. I have the rest of my life to be an adult. I'm 23 where I can still play high school, teenage stuff. I'll still do it. I'd like to do both, butjinevitably I will be playing an adult. Off the set Good loves to go to the movies, church, horseback riding, kick boxing and going out with friends. Fellas, if you want to take Ms. Good out, you'd better have an informative conversation. What's her biggest turn off? She says, "Someone telling me about what they are doing, what their job is, how much they have, what kind of car they drive, what they are going to doing next and all that stuff. And a person who offers to buy you this or buy you that. I like someone who is genuine and honest about who they are, what they have or don't have. Someone who would be casual enough to say let's just go hang out and talk. We don't even have to do dinner and a movie." Good has at least three more movies coming down the pipe including the highly anticipated roller skate comedy ROLL BOUNCE with Lil' Bow Bow. Good's legion of dedicated fans and growing box office appeal has Hollywood on notice for bigger things to come. CJ Sanders: Budding Young Actor/Athlete Destined For Great Things! by Rych McCain Millions of movies goers were enthralled and mesmerized with the amazing performance of Jamie Foxx as the late great music icon and genius ".-' Ray Charles, but they were equally as impressed with the young actor who brilliantly portrayed the boy child Ray in the film. He is eight year old.CJ Sanders whom many film critics and industry insiders hail as the next coming of Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman and yes, even the dean himself, Sidney Poitier. Young Sanders is the son of CJ Sanders, Sr., formerly of the Tennessee Titans Football Team and mom Stacie who is an actress and former col- lege basketball player. Due to his parent's athletic gene pool, young Sanders is as equally talented in athletics as he is in acting. As a quarterback on his football team, he holds several records and is already facing the inevitable dilemma of making the choice between pursuing athletics or acting. For now he's more than confident that he can do both. bot. CJ Sanders Jr., Mom Stacie, sister Cierra Sanders began his career in Nashville, on the red carpet at the Inner City Tennessee doing print commercials at one year old. Destiny Awards (Photo 2005 Andre' B. His mom got him into it because she was doing Murray/A Bern Agency Photo) commercials herself. 'The casting directors for the movie Ray were conducting a search for a child to play the young Ray all over the South because they wanted a southern youngster. They came across one of Sander's modeling pho- tos and got in touch with his mom. An audition tape was made with the aid of an acting coach and after a call back, he secured the role. Then it was off to Louisiana to shoot the film. What was it like to meet Jamie Foxx, Regina King, Kerry Washington, Sharon Warren, Larenz Tate, Clifton Powell, Harry Lennix and the rest of the cast? An enthusiastic Sanders responds, "It was a lot of fun to see the real, real actors. When I saw them, I was like (whoa), I'm meeting these people that I saw on TV. I mean, it's an honor to see these people." They reacted to him with equal admiration. He got to go to his first basketball game and sit in the first row at a New Orleans game. Sanders chimed in, "That's when we first met Jamie before the movie." And what about those contact lenses to give him the blind look, how did he bare that? "They had to put the contacts in and then the gook, it was real hard. I was like, when can I go home please." His mom added that she alone, was the only one who put the contacts in and took them out. She also added that the film's director Taylor Hackford and Jamie Foxx both expressed to Sanders that he was part of the team and that his role as the young Ray was just as important as Jamie's role as the older Ray. Being an athlete, Sanders completely understands the team concept. The chemistry on set between himself and Sharon Warren as his mother was incredibly believable. He's beaming with pride again as he responds, "On the set, she was my mother, I was her son, that's how we were doing it." Sander's mom added, "Her scenes with my son were so believable because she came to me as a mother and said, "I don't have kids, I need to know how you look at him, how you touch him and how.you guys bond." Warren did spend time with her two screen sons going to places like the aquarium and eateries. She would call to check in on them etc., in short, she was their mom for four weeks and the bond was established. Sanders is up for an NAACP Image Awards for Best Supporting Actor. At home, away from the lights and glitter, Sanders is a video game person and likes shrimp from his favorite eatery P.F. Chang's C ina Bistro. This youngster's talent in sports and acting is only 41 the first stages of development, so the future is wide open and we will be hearing big time from this child.

It is the sequel to the comedy smash GET SHORTY. John Travolta returns as Chili Palmer, the movie shylock who dumps the film world for the record business. After a friend who owns an independent record label is shot to death, while at lunch at an outdoor caf6, Palmer (Travolta) joins the deceased's widow Edie (Uma Thurman) as her new partner with the label. Palmer takes an up-and-coming singing starlet Linda Moon (Christina Milian), from her personal manager Raji (Vince Vaughn). He also has to deal with Russian mobsters, eloquent gangsta record producer Sin LaSalle (Cedric The Entertainer) and wannabe-actor bodyguard Elliot Wilhelm (The Rock).

The University of Florida sophomore seemed as surprised as everyone else when he ran 44.57 seconds at the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships Saturday night, breaking the mark of 44.63 set by Michael Johnson in 1995. It was the second phe- nomenal clocking by a U.S. teenager in the event this season, and both came at the Randal Tyson Track Center. A month ago, 18-year-old LaShawn Merritt of East Carolina ran a 44.93 -- then the third-fastest time in the event's history -- at the Tyson Invitational. But two weeks ago, Merritt signed a shoe con- tract with Nike and turned professional without ever running in an NCAA meet. That deprived the indoor championships of a big-time showdown, but Clement did just fine on his own. "He's been blessed by a wonderful ability by God-- he chose the right parents," Florida coach Mike Holloway said. "He's an incredibly hard worker. If I get on him about something, he listens and goes out and tries to correct it." Clement was born in Trinidad and moved to the United States as an eighth- grader. He was a highly coveted track recruit at La Porte (Texas) High School, recruited by the big powers of the sport, including LSU, Texas and Tennessee. Clement said no to Baylor coach Clyde Hart, who developed Johnson and 2004 Olympic gold medalist Jeremy Wariner. After choosing Florida, the easygoing youngster wasted no time in making his mark. He won the NCAA championship outdoors in the 400 hurdles, then won the world junior champi- onship in the same event, in meet record time. At the junior champi- onships, Clement competed for the United States after earning his U.S. citizenship last summer. He probably could have gone to the Olympics for Trinidad and Tobago last year, but preferred to become an American.

Alabama A&M forward Chris Collins (55) blocks a shot by Oakland guard DeMarcus Ishmeal (10) in the first half of the NCAA (news web sites) opening round game, Tuesday, March 15, 2005, in Dayton, Ohio. (AP Photo/Al Behrman) The Oakland Golden Grizzlies beat historically black Alabama A&M University 79-69 in the NCAA opening-round game behind Rawle Marshall's 29 points and Cortney Scott's 21. The game was played March 15 at the University of Dayton. The Golden Grizzlies became only the fifth team with a losing record to win an NCAA tournament game, joining Florida A&M (2004), UNC-Asheville (2003) and Siena (2002) -- all at Dayton-- and Bradley (1955). Obie Trotter scored 24 points and Joseph Martin added 22 for Alabama A&M (18-14), the Southwestern Athletic Conference regular- season and tournament champs. A&M coach L. Vann Pettaway said his team was worn out from playing four games in six days, winning the conference tournament Sunday before hitting the road less than 24 hours later to make it to Dayton. "We want to get back to the big dance, but we want to dance when we're rested," he said. Both teams were making their first appearance in the NCAA tournament. Oakland made the jump from Division II to Division I in the 1997-98 season. Chris Fuamatu-Maafala Troy Edwards JACKSONVILLE, Fla.--Running back Chris Fuamatu- Maafala and wide receiver Troy Edwards will once again wear the teal and black as members of the Jacksonville ~Jaguars. The Jaguars re-signed ihe.pair on Tuesday, March 15. Both Fuamatu-Maafala and Edwards had been unrestrict- ed free agents. Edwards, a first-round draft pick by Pittsburgh in 1999, spent the last three years in Jacksonville. He was second on the team last seasoniwith 50 catches for 533 yards and one touchdown. Fuamatu-Maafala also spent time with the Steelers. He was used mostly in short-yardage situations last season and carried 20 times for 69 yards and a touchdown. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

FAMU's Kevin Hicks Wins NCAA 800 Meter Title FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. - Florida A&M's Kevin Hicks won the NCAA Division One Indoor National title in the men's 800 meter run Saturday evening March 12, running a personal best time in the process at the Randall Tyson Track Center on the University of Arkansas campus. The sophomore from' Miami, ran a 1:46.97 on March 12 to all but blow away an impressive field in the 800, field which featured Kevin Hicks runners from the Big 10, Big 12, Mid-American and Southeastern Conferences. James Hatch, of host Arkansas, ran 1:47.40 to finish sec- ond, while Auburn's Sherridan Kirk (1:47.64), finished third. Hicks won the USTA National Indoor 800 Meter title two weeks ago in Boston, just a week after winning the 800 and mile run at the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference Indoor Championships, helping the Rattlers to a repeat as league champions. Friday, Hicks ran the second-fastest time in the prelimi- nary heats, turning in a 1:48.54 to finish behind Texas Tech's Jonathon Johnson, who finislied sixth (1:47.92). * Ali To Receive German Prize BERLIN Muhammad Ali will receive a prestigious German prize in December in recogni- tion of his commitment to the U.S. civil rights movement and his work as a U.N. peace ambas- sador, organizers said. The former heavy- weight boxing champi- on will receive the Otto Hahn Freedom Medal Dec. 17, the German " Society for the United Nations said in a Muhammad Ali recent statement. It noted that Parkinson's disease "has been unable to halt him in his commitment to society." Previous winners of the medal, named for the Nobel Prize-winning chemist, include Mikhail Gorbachev, Simon Wiesenthal and Yehudi Menuhin. House GOP Wary Of Regulating Boxing WASHINGTON Boxing needs the government to step in and protect the sport, reformers told Congress on Thursday. A key Republican said he was wary of making bureaucrats act as referees. A stalled bill to create a U.S. Boxing Commission brought a hearing in a House Energy and Commerce sub- committee, where lawmakers are trying to forge a compro- mise with a Senate effort championed by Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. "The problem that we have is we don't have any enforce- ment mechanism," said Ron Scott Stevens, chairman of the New York State Athletic Commission.
