mmmm THURSDAY February 12. 1998 Henderson, Nevada 50*- f"»fa-',.- ONE MAN'S VIEW MIKE O'CALLAGHAN News managing editor Paul Szydelko didn't write a Tuesday column because of his father's death. Richard Szydelko has been a resi- dent of Henderson for the past several years and has had a close relationship with his son. No matter how old and/or mature you are, the loss of a parent brings sadness and a flood of memories. I'm sure that Paul has been thinking about those ball games he and his father had enjoyed together. Times in church and the highlights of his own life as an adult that they shared together are also in his thoughts. I was about Paul's age when friends called me in Henderson and said they had found my father's body. First there was shock and then a flood of emotions that only a son can recall when his father dies. Then there were tears as I ordered a ticket that would get me to Pasco, Wash., to arrange for his funeral. Sitting in the plane on the way to Pasco, I recalled those long hours working in the fields during the Great Depression. But then came the cool evenings as we caught trout and bathed in a nearby stream. There were also late evenings that we slapped mosquitos and built a bonfire as we fished for catfish in a cranberry marsh. Dad taught us all how to work, hunt and fish. He didn't have the oppor- tunity to attend my high school and college football games and boxing matches because he was working. This didn't keep him from knowing exactly how good or how poorly I had competed. There was the look in his face when I came home on crutches from an Army hospital Memorial Day 1953. He knew I would have to seek different goals in life but he wasn't quite certain how 1 would do it. Neither did I. So, I know a few of the feelings Paul has been experiencing in recent days. Having known Paul for many years, I'm sure that he has provided his father with great joy over the years. His thoughts will be deep but they should be happy ones because young men like Paul are a source of great joy for their fathers.

Dignitaries and executives from around the state were on hand for the "vine-cutting" to welcome Henderson's second resort hotel and casino, 777 Lake Mead Dr. On stage at a watering hole inside the Afri- can safari-themed casino, Craig Neilsen, president and CEO of Ameristar Casinos Inc., gave a brief history of his company which bought The Reserve property under develop- ment in September 1996. Ameristar Casinos has a strong background in the gaming and hospitality industry dating back to 1954, he explained. One of their properties. Cactus Pete's Resort Casino in Jackpot, Nev., is only one of a few Four Diamond casinos in the state of Nevada, he added. Neilsen praised designer Henry Con versa no for his exquisite detail. At every turn, vivid African scenery is highlighted — from pumas in trees to a hippopotamus soaking up the mist in front of Monsoon Mary's exotic bar. Conversano has also designed The Mirage Hotel Casino and the Lost City at Sun City Resort Hotel and Casino in Sun City, South Africa. Jeff Terp, vice president of business devel- opment, Ameristar Casinos, wasn't giving lip service when he spoke about being good com- munity partners. Ameristar donated $50,000 to St. Jude's Ranch for Children and $50,000 to the Clark County Education Foundation. Mayor Jim Gibson pledged to continue the city's support and cooperation to The Reserve. Describing The Reserve as "the gateway to the city," Gibson said the casino will help revitalize Henderson's redevelopment area. Gibson thanked Ameristar for making Henderson a "place to call home."

The city of Henderson will be a title sponsor for the inaugural "ArtFest of Henderson" May 9- 10" in "Old Town" Henderson — along Water Street and in the park area around City Hall and the Convention Center. The ArtFest will 6ffer fine art, music and food, as 175 artists from across the nation will dis- play and sell one-of-a-kind pieces including paintings, sculptures, ceramics, wood art, fiber and jewelry. "It promises to be an eiyoy- able and fun event for Henderson," said Assistant City Manager Terry Zerkle, who played a key role in bringing the event to Henderson. "One of the nice things about this kind of an event is it's really family-oriented. There will be things there for people of all ages. It's going to be nice for the entire community," Zerkle said. To make sure the event gets done right, Henderson turned to an expert. Frank Maguire, president of the Arizona-based The Events Group, Inc., will act as the festi- val director for "ArtFest of Henderson." Maguire has more than 25 years of experience of producing such shows and currently has annual festivals in La JoUa, Calif., Scottsdale, Tucson and Flagstaff, all in Arizona. He said Henderson — due to its rapid growth and conununity atmosphere — is a perfect fit for an annual arts show. "It's going to develop into a major cultural festival in the up- coming years," said Maguire about the event, which will be free to the public. "It's some- thing different that the Las Vegas-area hasn't had. It brings a sense of community to the area." It also brings foot-traffic and a revamped image to downtown Henderson.

McCaw School of Mines and BMI: Working Together to Educate Students
Boeing and TIMET officials recently "inked" Boeing's ten-year contract with TIMET Pictured from left are Robert Ecker, director of procurement for Boeing: Landls Martfn, chairman and CEO, TIMET; Gerald Kearns. vice president and general manager of Boeing's materials division; and Andrew Dixie, president and COO. TIMET.
TINIET Signs Long-tenn Contract Witii Boding
In November, the world's largest manufacturer of titanium signed a 10-year contract with Boeing Co., supplying the commercial airline group and its suppliers with titanium products.
The contract calls for TIMET to provide a minimum of 1{W( of Boeing's annual titanium needs, depending on Boeing's requirements each yeaf. Shipments have already begun, but are not expected to reach planned volume levels until 1999.
"Timet has worked diligently to earn the trust and respect Boeing has given us," said John .Sanderson,
Timet's plant manager. "This a great thing for TIMET, our employees, and the community-at-large. We are up to the challenge."
Alter analyzing the world-wide titanium supply and the titanium market's ever-changing prices, Boeing sought a new way ol doing business. Over time, the long-term contract with TIMET should stabi- lize and reduce the cost of titanium and help Boeing to better manage its own costs and operations.
According to .Sanderson, TIMET is receptive to the idea of long-term contracts with other coinpanies in
the aerospace industry, as well. As the world's largest supplier of titani- um metal products. TIMET is cur- rently working on hundreds of aero- space, industrial and emerging applications.
"We're confident TIMET can continue to deliver the superior product and service for which we have been known." Sanderson said. "The agreement we have with Boeing is hopelullyV just the tip of the iceberg."^
The McCaw School of Mines is a result of a huge collaborative effort between the community, corpora- tions, and the students, parents, facul- ty, and administration of Gordon McCaw Elementary School. The BMI companies are very proud to be associated with this project whose goal is to educate students about Nevada's second largest industry - mining.
Celebrating its first successful year, the McCaw School of Mines recently invited Basic Management to prepare a display room to be included in Pha.se 11 of the school. The ro9m will feature BMI's mining and mineral related companies in Henderson.
"We are pleased and honored to have received this invitation," said Dan Stewart, BMI president. "BMI will continue to be a great supporter of the school. We believe it is impor- tant to generate interest in mining and showcase opportunities available in the mining industry.""
Since iLs beginning, BMI ha.s been a major benefactor of the McCaw School of-Mines. Chemical Lime Company, formerly Chemstar, was among the first companies to donate cash and lime for its construction.
Kerr-McGee was also a contribu- tor and donated mining equipment from its BristolMine and Castleton Mine near Pioche, Nevada. The com- pany also provided a crane to move the equipment it donated, and unloaded and moved other equip- ment as needed. In addition, Kerr- McGee has long been a supporter of

the Gordon McCaw PTA, funding various projects.
When the school celebrates its fortieth birthday, TIMET will pro- vide a titanium time capsule to house a variety of memorabilia from the schoofs archives. The company also arranged transporta- tion of equipment to the school and provided a forklift for unloading and moving equipment throughout the mine yard. One of TIMETs most impressive contributions involved transporting 1.7 million marbles via rail. The marbles were sold to benefit the school.
Employees of Pioneer Chlor
Alkali assisted the McCaw fourth grade economics unit with the Kids Kard Kompany. They interviewed students who applied to be "plant managers" at the Christmas Card fac- tories in each fourth grade classroom. This project received recognition from the Nevada State Social Studies Teachers Association.
Both TIMET and Pioneer Chlor Alkali are currently providing dis- plays at McCaw.
"We are eager to have a display room at McCaw dedicated exclusive- ly to highlighting mining companies in Henderson," said Janet Dobry, McCaw principal. ^
Henderson Alerting System Nearing Completion
BIVII Plays Big Role in Launching Opportunity Village's New Henderson Campus
Members of the Henderson Industrial Citizens Advisory Panel (HICAP) are continuing to facilitate progress of an alerting system designed to alert dispatchers of rou- tine, non-routine and emergency incidences which occur within the BMI complex. The system indues a large display board which will- enhance communications between the BMI plants and the City of Henderson's 911 dispatch office.
According to Craig Wilkinson, TIMET plant safety manager, the board features a detailed map of 45 locations throughout the BMI plants - each one indicated by a numbered light. Three different col- ors of lights will be used to identify routine and scheduled maintenance releases, non-scheduled but non- emergency relea.ses and releases which may pose a health and/or safety threat.
"Dispatchers will now instantly be able to accurately identify the nature and location of an incident at
the BMI complex." said Wilkinson. "This will not only expedite the arrival of emergency response vehi- cles and personnel, it will also help dispatchers to distinguish between real and non-emergencies, helping to allay public concern."
Scheduled to be installed during March, the $70.(KK) alerting system is being funded by Pioneer Chlor Alakali, Co.. TIMET and Kerr- McGee Chemical Corporation. A meteorological station which will provide emergency personnel with detailed weather information spe- cific to the BMI complex is also part of the system.
"The meteorological station will provide continuous infonnation on the exact wind speed and direction, humidity levels, temperature, and other weather factors present at the BMI complex," .said Wilkinson. "In the case of an emergency, this infor- mation can prove to be very valu- able and significant in determining how to handle the situation."" ;^

The ground was ceremonially broken with an old-fashioned plow and a little help from Opportunity Village client Mark Nevin.
More than five years ago. Basic Management. Inc. donated a 1.6- acre' piece of property to Oppor- tunity Village for a new Henderson campus. Just a few months ago, BMI again played a major role in helping to launch the facility by hosting a ceremonial groundbreak-
ing for a 22,000-square-foot build- ing to be named for the Bill Walters family.
A highly regarded non-profit organization dedicated to providing work opportunities and life enrich- ment for the mentally disabled, Opportunity Village is eager to
expand its reach with a second cam- pus in the southeaslem valley.
According to Opportunity Vil- lage executive director Ed Guthrie, the Walters Family Campus of Opportunity Village will help to meet the needs of a growing handi- capped population.
"'One of every ten Henderson families includes a person with men- tal retardation," said Guthrie. "At the same time, the needs of the Henderson business community are growing, as well. At Opportunity Village, we provide local busines.ses with affordable packaging, bulk- mailing and task-oriented services - while giving tho.se with mental retar- dation a purpose to their existence by providing work opportunities."
Construction on the $3 million campus is expected to begin in March, with completion scheduled for early 1999.
"Although we had already made a significant donation to Opportunity Village years earlier, it made a lot of sense for BMI, as Henderson's oldest neighbor, to welcome the city's
newest neighbor," said Dan Stewart, BMI president. "We were extremely pleased to be able to increase the vis- ibility of Opportunity Village and what the organization brings to our community - especially in terms of improving the lives of the mentally disabled." ;^

A procession of conga players and well-sculp- tured people body-painted as animals snaked through several thousand people to kick off the VIP party for The Reserve Hotel Casino Tues- day.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
And, if Henderson has its way, in May there will be about 30,000 beholders.
The city of Henderson will be a title sponsor for the inaugural "ArtFest of Henderson" May 9- 10" in "Old Town" Henderson — along Water Street and in the park area around City Hall and the Convention Center.
The ArtFest will 6ffer fine art, music and food, as 175 artists from across the nation will dis- play and sell one-of-a-kind pieces including paintings, sculptures, ceramics, wood art, fiber and jewelry.
"It promises to be an eiyoy- able and fun event for Henderson," said Assistant City Manager Terry Zerkle, who played a key role in bringing the event to Henderson.
"One of the nice things about this kind of an event is it's really family-oriented. There will be things there for people of all ages. It's going to be nice for the entire community," Zerkle said.
To make sure the event gets done right, Henderson turned to an expert.
Frank Maguire, president of the Arizona-based The Events

Maguire has more than 25 years of experience of producing such shows and currently has annual festivals in La JoUa, Calif., Scottsdale, Tucson and Flagstaff, all in Arizona.

dozens of different groups claiming to represent people of my age, religion, occupation and even past jobs like military service. Every time they ask me to write a letter to tell the office holder what I want him or her to do for me. They want me to sound like a little kid in the kitchen crying gimme, gimme, gimme.
Now stop and think about it. What if you were the elected official who only received letters wanting something and never one saying thank you? We continually tell our young people to express gratitude and then get caught up on the one-way street encouraged by special interest groups.
As an elected public ofTicial for eight years, I soon learned that some people couldn't be satisfied no matter what was done. After so much negativism from any individual or group, it's easy to arrive at the point of being unable to care less about their mail or phone calls. Despite this, oftentimes
officials support th,e programs of critics because even they can't be wrong on every issue. Of ^ourse, neither can our elected public servants.
When was the last time you sat down and wrote an elected official a note of thanks? How about giving some bureaucrat a pat on the back for a job well done. We have some outstanding public servants at all levels of government in Nevada.
Try it, you may like it. I'm sure^they will.
UNLV football coach Jeff Horton is the speaker Thursday evening at the awards banquet for the Henderson Boys & Girls Club. Jeff isn't a stranger in Henderson and has come to town several times for youth oriented activities. This hasn't always been the practice of some past UNLV coaches and athletic directors.
In addition to giving his time and interest to schools and organizations in and around the valley, he has also shown interest by recruiting
local athletes. The WAC is big league college sports and Horton has a tough assignment fielding a competitive t^am. With his enthusiasm and knowledge of the game, fans are looking"" ahead to the 1998 season.

biance — which certain areas of downtown Henderson has," Maguire said. "I couldn't find a section of Las Vegas that had the same feeling Henderson did. Henderson is very much a com- munity, it's very much community-oriented."
Downtown Henderson also fits into Maguire's plan due to the possibilities of more parking and freeway access, which will become a concern as the atten- dance at the event grows annually.

Maguire's "Art Festival in the Village of La Jolla," in just its seventh year, drew 90,000 people in two days this past September. He already has his goals set for Henderson.
"I think we'll get about 20,000- 30,000 people this year. That's a good goal for the first year," he said. _ _
While The Events Group Inc. and the city played the lead roles in bringing the art festival to Henderson, local artists got the ball rolling, approaching both

"Sometimes it seems hope- less — Cody was our life. Everything we did revolved around her," Jerry said. "We do a lotjif staring at each other now. It's kind of lonely without a little 'Code-tode.'"
That was Cody's nickname. She was a very bubbly child who was active in the school choir at White Middle School. Cody loved outdoor activities such as soccer. She also loved riding her horse and singing.
"She sang constantly," Jerry said.
The family's future was well-charted.
"In a matter of seconds there was no chart, now we are out floundering in a vast ocean with no sail and we still haven't found that direction," Jerry said.
"Because Cody was an only child, I will miss all the fii^ts, the first dance ... the first boyfriend," Jerry said. "I don't get to see Cody do anything because she only experienced 11 years of it [life]."
The effect Cody's death has had on he and Patti has been shattering.
In the past year they have done many things to try to cope. Tlity have moved out of the home in which they lived

About once a week, he and Patti place flowers and a cross on a light pole at the place where Cody was killed. Jerry says it helps keep their daughter's memory alive. It also serves as a community reminder to slow down and leave the beer at the bar.

Zerkle said the city of Henderson is looking forward to seeing all of the planning for the event become a reality this spring.
"Henderson is just a natural for this kind of activity. It should be a good time of the year to have an event like this," he said.

White cloud emerges from Tlmet maintenance Sharon Jackson
News Staff Writer
• A scheduled maintenance project at 2:30 p.m. Sunday at Timet resulted in a white cloud that lingered over the area for about 20 minutes.
According to Timct human re- sources manager Brent Peterson, workers had to repair one of the process tanks.
The tank was drained of tita- nium tetrachloridc and washed out so the repairs could be done.
"We had to get all the material out of the tank. Of course, it had residual titanium tetrachloride
left in the tank," Peterson said. He added that when water is
mixed with the titanium tetra- chloride it makes a white cloud, titanium dioxide, a non-hazard- ous, non-toxic material.
Peterson said Timet informed the Clark County Fire Depart- ment and the Clark County Air Pollution Control Division of the maintenance effort in advance.
"We called [them] early in the morning and said we would be doing a maintenance effort and it could result in a release of tita- nium dioxide, Peterson said.
This wa? just a maintenance
operation, 1 there were] no acci- dents. [It's! nothing unusual, it's just something that has to be done periodically,"
Michael Naylor, Clark County Air Pollution Control Division Director, confirmed his agency was notified of the release.
Air pollution inspectors did not respond to the incident but Naylor said staff used instrumentation in Pittman and at Burkholder Junior High to test the air. He said the test results showed no signs of haze, visible Smog or vis- ibility impairment.

HPD offers sex offender notification Sharon Jackson. News Staff Writer
Certain agencies, and in some cases private citizens, can now be notifiedif a person-wlio has been convicted of .aJsexual offense
-moves into their neighborhood. The.1997 Legislature passed
the Sex Offender Noti fidation Law in Nevada which requires that all sex offenders within the state or moving into the state, register with the Department of Parole a*id Probation. The Department then rates the threat level to the community.
Examples of agencies eligible to be notified are Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, private educational in-
stitutions, camps, day care centers, women- only health spas, or churches that organize events for children or women.
"[Years ago] we couldn't go to the community and say a 'sex offender or pedophile has just moved across the street from the day care center.' Now the police department is not only allowed [to notify] but we are required to make notifications," Henderson Police Lt. Jutta Chambers said.
The police department en- courages any organization (or person involved in any organiza- tion) who cares for or provides services/programs for women or children and feels they meet the criteria is requested to call the
Police investigate infant's death
Sharon Jackson News Staff Writer
A baby born to an 18-year old Henderson woman Monday night died shortly after the birth and Henderson Police are investigat- ing the death as a crime.
Henderson Police Capt. Rich- ard Perkins said the woman sought medical help at a health care facility because she started hemorrhaging after giving birth. She was eventually taken to St. Rose.
"All we know is a child was born on Monday and a child died Monday. We arc still trying to piece together how the cl*ld died and ifitwasthe result of a criminal or noncriminal act," Perkins said.
She gave birth to the infant at home.
He added that the information is unclear because the women is still under a doctors car&\tind police have had limited acce.s)
her. He said Henderson investiga-
tors are working to determine if the baby's mother provided the infant with the needs to sustain life. ^
The baby was found in the woman's bedroom, Perkins said. The family later took the infant to the hospital.
He did not know at News \ipad\\ne how the baby girl died
but said the department is wait- ing on infonnation from the Clark County Coroner office.
The girl's parents may not have known their daughter was preg- nant.
"We don't believe they did [know]," Perkins said. "It is a difficult thing to conceal, it ap- pears they had no idea."
The woman thought she had a miscarriage, Perkins said.
Police served a search warrant an(| found a lot of blood and items as/>ociated with an unattended
regnancy.
Police Department, 565-2198, to register for notification.
"This information we will be giving community members and organizations is only for their in- formation, not for them to make contact with these people or to harass these offenders. [There is to be] no vigilantism," Chambers said, adding that the offender has already completed parole or pro- bation and is not being sought for any offense.
Chambers explained the tiers on which offenders are rated.
If £m offender is rated at tier one, they are determined to be a low risk — the offender's risk of recidivism and threat to public safety is low.
Tier two is moderate risk. If the offender's risk of recidivism and threat to public safety is de- termined to be moderate.
Tier three is a high risk — if the offender's risk to public safety is determined to be high, that person is rated at a tier three.
Determinations are made by a state of Nevada statute.
Under the new statute, it is i)ow a felony if a sex offender changes addresses and does not register under the new program, according to Chambers.
She added the offender must register under this rating system for a minimum of 10 years before they can request to be excused. This law applies to any sex of- fender who has been convicted of a qualifying sexual offense that happened on or after July 1,1956.
"The more the offender is a threat to the community, the higher the rating and the more of a notification to the community is required," Chambers said. "Once the Henderson Police Depart-- ment receives notice of an offender rating, we will notify the com- munity."
This notification includes law enforcement, then community groups or businesses that provide services to women or children, and occasionally can include

neighborhoods, depending on the rating the offender receives.
Chambers explained that if a moderate risk offender moves to a given Henderson neighborhood, law enforcement and certain community organizations would be notified.
She added if a high risk of- fender moves to an area, a neighborhood notification would be issued and law enforcement and organizations that serve women and children would be informed.
To be eligible to receive notifi- cation of a sex offender who has moved into the area, qualifying organizations must register with the Henderson Police Depart- ment.
Chambers said the registration process is easy but to be eligible organizations must communicate to the police department they wish to be notified. Simply call the previously noted telephone number and leave the organization's name and mailing address. The police department will send the caller a one-page application.
The department will notify the organization if they meet the no- tification requirements.
Once the organization is regis- tered with HPD, it is placed on the department mailing list for notification. If a sex offender moves into an area where an eli- gible organization provides services or holds meetings, they will be informed. Notification eligibility does not expire but if an organization moves, it must change its address with the HPD.
Chambers said if a person is unsure if their organization falls within the required guidelines, they should call 565-2198.

dozens of different groups claiming to represent people of my age, religion, occupation and even past jobs like military service. Every time they ask me to write a letter to tell the office holder what I want him or her to do for me. They want me to sound like a little kid in the kitchen crying gimme, gimme, gimme.
Now stop and think about it. What if you were the elected official who only received letters wanting something and never one saying thank you? We continually tell our young people to express gratitude and then get caught up on the one-way street encouraged by special interest groups.
As an elected public ofTicial for eight years, I soon learned that some people couldn't be satisfied no matter what was done. After so much negativism from any individual or group, it's easy to arrive at the point of being unable to care less about their mail or phone calls. Despite this, oftentimes
officials support th,e programs of critics because even they can't be wrong on every issue. Of ^ourse, neither can our elected public servants.
When was the last time you sat down and wrote an elected official a note of thanks? How about giving some bureaucrat a pat on the back for a job well done. We have some outstanding public servants at all levels of government in Nevada.
Try it, you may like it. I'm sure^they will.
UNLV football coach Jeff Horton is the speaker Thursday evening at the awards banquet for the Henderson Boys & Girls Club. Jeff isn't a stranger in Henderson and has come to town several times for youth oriented activities. This hasn't always been the practice of some past UNLV coaches and athletic directors.
In addition to giving his time and interest to schools and organizations in and around the valley, he has also shown interest by recruiting
local athletes. The WAC is big league college sports and Horton has a tough assignment fielding a competitive t^am. With his enthusiasm and knowledge of the game, fans are looking"" ahead to the 1998 season.
Irene Ballis, a VA volunteer and member of Henderson VFW Post 3848, believes people should have a laugh every now and then.

He did not know at News \ipad\\ne how the baby girl died
but said the department is wait- ing on infonnation from the Clark County Coroner office.
The girl's parents may not have known their daughter was preg- nant.
"We don't believe they did [know]," Perkins said. "It is a difficult thing to conceal, it ap- pears they had no idea."
The woman thought she had a miscarriage, Perkins said.
Police served a search warrant an(| found a lot of blood and items as/>ociated with an unattended
regnancy.
Police Department, 565-2198, to register for notification.
"This information we will be giving community members and organizations is only for their in- formation, not for them to make contact with these people or to harass these offenders. [There is to be] no vigilantism," Chambers said, adding that the offender has already completed parole or pro- bation and is not being sought for any offense.
Chambers explained the tiers on which offenders are rated.
If £m offender is rated at tier one, they are determined to be a low risk — the offender's risk of recidivism and threat to public safety is low.
Tier two is moderate risk. If the offender's risk of recidivism and threat to public safety is de- termined to be moderate.
Tier three is a high risk — if the offender's risk to public safety is determined to be high, that person is rated at a tier three.
Determinations are made by a state of Nevada statute.
Under the new statute, it is i)ow a felony if a sex offender changes addresses and does not register under the new program, according to Chambers.
She added the offender must register under this rating system for a minimum of 10 years before they can request to be excused. This law applies to any sex of- fender who has been convicted of a qualifying sexual offense that happened on or after July 1,1956.
"The more the offender is a threat to the community, the higher the rating and the more of a notification to the community is required," Chambers said. "Once the Henderson Police Depart-- ment receives notice of an offender rating, we will notify the com- munity."
This notification includes law enforcement, then community groups or businesses that provide services to women or children, and occasionally can include

neighborhoods, depending on the rating the offender receives.
Chambers explained that if a moderate risk offender moves to a given Henderson neighborhood, law enforcement and certain community organizations would be notified.
She added if a high risk of- fender moves to an area, a neighborhood notification would be issued and law enforcement and organizations that serve women and children would be informed.
To be eligible to receive notifi- cation of a sex offender who has moved into the area, qualifying organizations must register with the Henderson Police Depart- ment.
Chambers said the registration process is easy but to be eligible organizations must communicate to the police department they wish to be notified. Simply call the previously noted telephone number and leave the organization's name and mailing address. The police department will send the caller a one-page application.
The department will notify the organization if they meet the no- tification requirements.
Once the organization is regis- tered with HPD, it is placed on the department mailing list for notification. If a sex offender moves into an area where an eli- gible organization provides services or holds meetings, they will be informed. Notification eligibility does not expire but if an organization moves, it must change its address with the HPD.
Chambers said if a person is unsure if their organization falls within the required guidelines, they should call 565-2198.

'" Caring for othafc^ is a quality that had been instilled in Dr. Carolyn Reedom since her child- hood, which may be why the principal at Vanderburg El- ementary , School is so compassionate with her students.
Dr. Reedom spent many of her teen years taking care of her grandmother who suffered from Alzheimer's Disease. As a result, the high school honors student was often told by her parents and friends that she would make a great nurse.
The Louisiana native followed that path after graduating with honors, accepting a partial schol- arship to Dillard University in New Orleans, one of the top nursing programs in the country.
At the start, Reedom did well in her classes, and was well-liked among the teachers of the nursing department.
But in her third year in college, Reedom said she failed the real test to see if she could stomach witnessing the daily pain, suffer- ing and death that occurs in hospitals.
"All the classes that year were in the hospital," Reedom said. "I realized then I couldn't handle seeing that every day. I used to cry with the patients. The doctors told me I wasn't supposed to cry in front of them."
That experience taught her that there was quite a difference be- tween dealing with patients who

When she told Dr. Ruth Miller, the chairman of Dillard's nursing department she wanted to change her major to anything other than nursing, Miller tried to persuade her to complete her nursing de- cree.
"She spent hours trying to convince me to change my mind
because of all the time I had spent in it [nursing]," Reedom said. "But I knew if I stayed in it, I would never use that degree."
One of Miller's expressions she often said to her students was that nurses must be dedicated, Reedom said. To reiterate that statement back to Miller, Reedom said was her only way out.
"She kept trying and trying to convince me to stay until finally I just said,'Dr. Miller. Iju.st wouldn't
be dedicated as a nurse."! Those magical words unlocked
the door, freeing Reedom to change her major with Miller's accep- tance.
"What department do you want to change to?" Reedom recalled Miller asking.
Reedom didn't have an answer to that at tbe time, but that summier she volunteered to help at the early childhood program, HeadStart
Following that summer in- ternship in 1969, Reedom changed her major_ tp education and graduated on-time at the end of the school year.
Afterward, she followed her parents out to Clark County and she landed a teaching job in the school district. Seven years later, at 27, Dr. Reedom became the youngest to be appointed princi- pal of a Clark County School, when she assumed that position at Red Rock Elementary School.
The school district's respect for Reedom continued to be evident as she was been appointed the
first principal of McDoniel El- ementary (1987) and Vanderburg Elementary (1996).
When a new school opens, and the district expects it may lead to a issues of overcrowded classrooms and upset parents, Reedom is of- ten the person district officials put near the top of the list because of her problem-solving record.

Sunset Station expansion on the horizon D.B. Marciniak News Staff Writer
As Henderson celebrated the opening of its second resort-style hotel and casino this week, the first, Sunset Station Hotel and Casino, announced it is preparing to expand.
Only seven months after Sun- set Station opened its doors to Henderson residents, casino ex- ecutives are solidifying plans for a $30 million expansion project.
"Sometimes you need to get bigger to get better," said Don Marrandino, Sunset Station's general manager.
More movie theaters, addi- tional parking, as well as more gaming and restaurants will be added to the eastern side of Sun- set Station within the next year, he said.
Ground breaking is expected for April for the expansion. Con- struction will take about eight to nine months with different aspects of the project completed in phases, Marrandino said.
Citing an influx of resources from a $1.7 biUion merger with Crescent Real Estate Equities Co. late last month, he said it gave Station Casinos a comfort level to
pursue its expansion plans. "I've been pleased vfith the re-
sults [of the property] thus far," he said. "We've been meeting our expectations both financially and with visitors."
Revenues at the casino have been increasing marginally each month of operation since its June opening, Marrandino indicated. Eiesides the casino's favorable fi- nancial situation, he said, the number of people visiting the property has increased.
Svmset Station's buffet recently celebrated its one millionth cus- tomer, „the hotel has remained aroimd a 95% occupancy rate and the ratio of people gaming at key times of the day has remained consistent or increased sUghtly since their opening.
Marrandino said these are all indicators the property is suc- ceeding and it's time to move ahead with expansion plans.
"We are doing it because the movie theater has been over- crowded," he said.
The cornerstone of the ex- panded property wilj^be 12 state-of-the-art stadium-style theaters. By designing the new theaters as stadium-style, it will give Sunset Station more seating
capacity for movie-goers. Once open, the additional screens will give Sunset Station 24 theaters in all.
Aside from the theaters, Sun- set Station is planning to build a five-story parking garage off its Warm Springs Road exit. The garage will feature a valet drop area and 2,000 available spaces.
"I wanted the garage all along," Marrandino said. "I think it is a key part of the property."
The garage will offer patrons a convenient place to park and not have to walk far to get into Sunset Station, he said.
Additional planned amenities for the addition include 20,000 square feet of gaming area, a few fast food restaurants and a pos- sible steak house.
"We're still putting together some details of the plans," Marrandino said, adding expan- sion plans should be completed soon. "We figured as long as ex- pansion makes sense, we'd go ahead."
In the meantime, he said, pa- tr(ms will soon get a glimpse of improvements at the casino's amphitheater. He said additional trees, shrubs and other improve-
''We're sWI putting together some details
of the plans. We figured as long as expansion makes
^ sense, we'd go ahead."

Sunset Station GM
ments have been made during the past month to prepare the amphi- theater for planned outdoor events. The amphitheater should be complete and open to the public in the coming week.
Sunset Station oi>ened in June, 1997, on 100 acres. Casino execu- tives planned expansion, but at the time of the opening were un- sure when additional improve- ments would be pursued. At its opening, the property was as- sessed at about $ 198 million. Once expansion plans are complete, the property will exceed a value of $200 million.

Marrandino said these are all indicators the property is suc- ceeding and it's time to move ahead with expansion plans.
"We are doing it because the movie theater has been over- crowded," he said.
The cornerstone of the ex- panded property wilj^be 12 state-of-the-art stadium-style theaters. By designing the new theaters as stadium-style, it will give Sunset Station more seating
capacity for movie-goers. Once open, the additional screens will give Sunset Station 24 theaters in all.
Aside from the theaters, Sun- set Station is planning to build a five-story parking garage off its Warm Springs Road exit. The garage will feature a valet drop area and 2,000 available spaces.
"I wanted the garage all along," Marrandino said. "I think it is a key part of the property."
The garage will offer patrons a convenient place to park and not have to walk far to get into Sunset Station, he said.
Additional planned amenities for the addition include 20,000 square feet of gaming area, a few fast food restaurants and a pos- sible steak house.
"We're still putting together some details of the plans," Marrandino said, adding expan- sion plans should be completed soon. "We figured as long as ex- pansion makes sense, we'd go ahead."
In the meantime, he said, pa- tr(ms will soon get a glimpse of improvements at the casino's amphitheater. He said additional trees, shrubs and other improve-
''We're sWI putting together some details
of the plans. We figured as long as expansion makes
^ sense, we'd go ahead."

ments have been made during the past month to prepare the amphi- theater for planned outdoor events. The amphitheater should be complete and open to the public in the coming week.
Sunset Station oi>ened in June, 1997, on 100 acres. Casino execu- tives planned expansion, but at the time of the opening were un- sure when additional improve- ments would be pursued. At its opening, the property was as- sessed at about $ 198 million. Once expansion plans are complete, the property will exceed a value of $200 million.

When tragedy strikes...
When tragedy strikes, before friends and family can lend comfort, a helping hand, a thoughtful ear and a few well-chosen words are needed at the scene.
Being there, however, is most important. With the bustle of paramedic and police and fire
activity, sometimes a friendly face is all a victim needs to see. That's where the Trauma Intervention Team
•'-Hit'" comes m. This group of volunteers is on call to assist in
providing "emotional first-aid the first couple of hours of the trauma" TIP crisis team leader Marion Thomas said in a News report last week.
The volunteers are screened and trained before they attempt to counsel family members of victims of traffic accidents, fires and other tragedies.
It's tough work and certainly not for everyone, no question, but it's needed in communities of all sizes — when accidents can happen any time of the day or night.
The 13-year-old national program is in its second year in Henderson, and the News encourages residents to consider helping.
A new training session for TIP volunteers will begin Feb. 19 at the Henderson Training Center, Parkson and Warm Spring Road. Call 459-1055 for more information.

RICHARD COHEN
Exterminate a rat At one of the closed Capitol Hill
briefings given by the CHnton administration over the Iraq crisis, a member of Congress likened Saddam Hussein to the Energizer Bunny—the one that keeps on going. No, said the administration's briefer, the Iraqi dictator was more like the toy mole in the "Whack a Mole" game. It comes up one hole, you bop it on the head and it comes up another. ;
Choose your analogy^bunny or mole-neither way the lesson is clear:
' Saddam is going to be around for the foreseeable future.
I For the U.S. and it&^remaining Gulf War allies, the anticipated
j military action against Iraq has a resigned, world-weary quality to it.
I Not only is it anticipated that ! Saddam will survivfe, but he is I expected in due course to return to \ his old behavior. This mole never
gives up. j The hope—it may, in fact, be
closer to a dream—is that critical elements of Iraqi society will bUme Saddam for their misery. That's why the bombardment being contemplated may not turn out to be a brief affair, but one of prolonged duration—maybe a couple of weeks or so. The aim i,s to so hurt the Iraqi military, especially Saddam's cherished Republican Guard, that they will oitfior demand that he abide by the agreement he made with the United Nations or —dream on — dispatch him to an emeritus status, posthumously of course.
The chances of that happening are, however, only slightly better than the chance of catching Saddam out in the open and parting his hair with a very smart bomb. But the administration figures it has no choice but to proceed anyway, knowing that victory (in the old
sense of capitulation) is unattainable. It is even far from certain that, when the bombing ceases, the U.N. inspectors will once again be granted access to whatever area intrigues them.
The scenario is simultaneously unsatisfying and inevitable. The only way to ensure Saddam's removal would be to send in ground troops. (About 100,000 would be needed.) But Saudi Arabia, the launching pad for the 1991 allied invasion of Kuwait and Iraq, is unavailable this time airbun.4 '^Q-tjipt .. only will there be no massive invasion, no American ground troops at all will be used.
Yet another—if unspoken—option is to do nothing. That, though, would mean allowing Saddam to continue his weapons program and, in short order, intimidate much of the Middle East. Moreover, it would spell the end of the United Nations as an efTective international organization. Up to now, it really has accomplished much in Iraq, destroying more weaponry through inspections than the allies did from the air in the Gulf War. (The United Nations, in fact, has been so effective that Congress ought to consider paying the U.S. dues.)
In one sense, Saddam represents a no-brainer. The man is ^o vile, so evil, so patently irrational that letting him get hrs way is Simply not an option. Still, military action is a perilous cour.se. It will produce what is called collateral damage—a fancy term for the accidental killing of civilians and, possibly, the unintentional destruction of a school or mosque. That, in turn, will provoke protests in
parts of the Arab world --nJordan, probably, and Egypt as well. In both countries, the U.S. is already considered the protector of a recalcitrant Israeli government.
As for Israel itself, it can expect that Iraq will send some missiles its way — maybe armed with chemical or
biological agents. The United Nations has never been able to account for all the chemical or biological weapons Iraq was once thought to have — and, possibly, even more have been produced. The same i« triie for their Scud missiles. Iraq has some, that's for sure, although the exact number is anyone's guess. If the U.S. laiinches air strikes against Iraq, there's a fair chance innocent IsraeHs will die as well — more collateral damage. This, after all, is not Israel's fight.
None of the options available to the Clinton administration are any good. But the worst would be to allow a sociopath like Saddam to develop chemical or, in particular, biological weapons which, almost certainly, he would use. (He already has used poison gas against his own people). He is not, to return to metaphor, a mole but a rat. It would be best to exterminate him but, barring that, he needs to be whacked. Sometimes in statecraft, as in life itself, all you can do is what you can.

Legislative reform needed
g z

The way bills wore handled during the last legislative session is the reason that Nevada needs legislative reform.
A great number of bills concerning public education were poorly conceived, written, buried in committee, not brought up for public hearing, then passed into law. That's no way to run a legislature.
While many of our representa- tives talk about education reform, they need also to concentrate on legislative reform. Those who are giving that lip service are merely talking about putting a limit on the number of days the session will last. While that's nice, it won't be their decision. Nevadans will vote to make sure our representatives get right to work rather than wasting the first few months of the session as they have in the past.
While I favor having a shorter session, I believe the way the Nevada legislature does business is in need of reform. Too often bills are held up by one committee chairperson to be used as a bargaining chip at the end of the session. The power of committee chairs has to be addressed.
If they can hold bills to the end of the session, without any kind of hearings, then why do 1 bother to vote for a representative? The only people with access to these chairs at the end of the session are the lobbyists writing some of these atrocities or special interest groups.
I believe that bills assigned to committee should be heard within a time certain. Any bill that is not heard during that timeframe should be automatically passed out of committee for a vote by the people we send to Carson City.
I would also suggest that no new bills be allowed during the last few weeks of the legislature. Having
close to 50% of the state's legislation being voted on at the end of the session is a recipe for stupidity.
There are only so many people that work at the Legislative Council Bureau who write these bills for Legislators. If they are working 18 to 22 hours per day at the end of the session trying to get these bills written, it does not give them enough time or sleep to determine if the bills they are drafting are addressing the true concerns of the originator of the bill. It does not give other legislators time to even read the bill that will be brought to a vote.
Most people I have talked to agree much of the legislation passed last session was poorly written because of the abuses of the chairs. While I personally agreed in concept with many of those bills, the bills have m'any flaws because there was not public testimony on them.
The charter bill was a waste of taxpayer money, the attendance/ truancy bill certainly needs much work as does the crown jewel of last session's legislature, Nevada's Educational Reform Act.
Put yourself in this situation. You are a private school beginning with fourth grade. All students come from different schools in the community. The second month these kids are in your school, October, the state tests them on what was taught to them in first, second and third grades. When the results are reported later that year, your school—that had nothing to do with the students' first, second, or third grade education—is labeled as "inadequate" because of their test performance.
Do you see anything wrong with that picture? How can a school that only had kids for little more than a month be responsible and labeled inadequate? Let's just call that a flaw.
Adding to that, the K-3 schools that prepared the students won't be identified nor will they receive any
funds set aside by the legislature to address remediation needs of their students. The effects of poorly written legislation snowball.
By the way, the story line is not any different if you represent a public school starting with fourth grade.
While mtmy committees in the legislature schedule meetings, take testimony, study the issues, and work hard, other committees do not.
The state spends more than 50% of its budget on education. You'd think legislators would take the subject seriously. You know there is a problem when many of our elected legislators do their utmost to introduce education legislation in other committees to by-pass the Assembly Education Committee.
Some legislators will tell you they are reforming the legislative process by ending the session earlier. That's not enough!
Committee chairs have to have their power curtailed so the public is informed and can testify before legislation is enacted.

Editor: „ My latest report on this CAT endeavor. Was I too presumptuous asking Santa Glaus to bring a bus shelter to that long-
suffering bus stop? You know the one ... on Sunset just around the comer from Boulder Highway? Or, was he just too busy with all his normal duties, delivering goodies to all the
boys and girls? And then again, CAT did promise a bus shelter by September 1997. How do we sort this out? CAT did not live up to its promises! How long do we have to wait? For your information, CAT, the art deco rocks are back.. .spread over the area! I saw a senior citizen sitting on one of those rocks last Friday How about it, CAT? A compromise? HoV about a bench? I wonder if the Leprechaims could help me or maybe the Easter Bimny? What say you, CAT? ___^_«^^_-«..^_««
DOROTHY NORMAN COOKE
Campaign donations: More reform needed
^ There is no problem with Circus Circus dumping nearly all of its $300,000 in contributions into Kenny Guinn's campaign one day before a new law would reduce the maximum to half of that. The old law was still ir effect, and the casino corporation had every right to act under it. All of us— businesses and individuals—rush to achieve advantages we would lose under expiring-I^ws, from gaining tax deductions to paying fees to doing a host of other things. It is the way we operate under a system based upon law. If it's legal, we can do it until it is not legal.
So when Circus Circus's various corporate entities each donated $20,000 on Nov. 26 of last year, they were certainly within their rights— even though on Nov. 27 these donations would be limited to $10,000. And if Guinn other donors did the same, they were within their rights also.
The problem here is not with how corporations and individuals actfed under the law; the problem is with the law itself The earlier law permitted corporations and other special interests to donate far too much to election campaigns. And while the 1997 reform law improved that by halving the maximum donation, it failed to do anything to prevent inter-linked corporations from funneling large amounts of money into specific campaigns. Thus Circus Circus or any other corporate structure can still donate up to $10,000 from a host of sub- corporations and allied businesses which the law looks on as separate
entities but which in reality are one and the,same. Divide $20,000 into the $300,000 that came from Circus Circus hotel-casinos, development and finance firms and a fuel company, and you find that the $300,000 came from up to 15 entities. Even under the $10,000 limit, this gives Circus Circus and other giant corporations the ability to give huge sums to candidates. And these candidates know as well as the voters do that all of these contributions represent the same interest and hope for the same legislation in their favor. So the special interests continue to hold grg^t power in elections.
Reno Assemblyman Pete Ernaut, who is the campaign chief in Guinn's run for the governorship, argues that if these "bundled" donations are forbidden, the political process would be limited to the very rich. That is certainly a concern given the horrendous cost of campaigning these days. This state, and this nation, must find ways to limit campaign
spending in all areas, and return some sense to the process. But even so, the Nevada Legislature would do citizens a great favor by limiting the amount of money that bundled corporations can donate. The very rich, at least, do not owe anybody anything except themselves; while the not-so-rich becon»e beholden to special interests on a vast monetary scalq that injures the political process. Quite probably, voters would be more than pleased to tackle this issue now, and deal with the billionaires later.

Progress in Bosnia
In a country as fractured as Bosnia, the word "break-through" is invoked at considerable peril. But
. there is no question that a httle- noticed development in the Serbian portion of Bosnia last month represents, at the least, a significant step forward in the difficult process of restoring peace and building a new nation out of the wreckage of the post-Yugoslavia war. The parliament of the Republika Srpska, as it is known, chose as prime minister Milorad Dodik, 38, who supports democratization, the Dayton accords and integration with the Croat and Muslim institutions of the tripartite state. His election, by the narrowest of margins, delivers a blow to the Serb nationalist forces controlled by Radovan Karadzic that have been the single biggest—though by no means only—obstacle to the peace process.
The weakening of the nationalist Serb forces follows a conscious strategy by the U.S. and its NATO allies. Mr. Karadzic, an indicted war criminal, has been deprived of the media and police he used to maintain power and enrich himself. Now his forces stand to lose their last source of authority, the power to tax and impose customs duties. From their last redoubt in eastern Srpska, they have been reduced to decrying Mr. Dodik's election as "undemocratic" and warning—correctly, we hope— that the new government will work toward the reintegration of Republika Srpska into the Bosnian state.
What's important now is for the West to capitalize on Mr. Dodik's election by supporting his new government, financially as well as politically. Some members of Congress don't want any aid funds going to any Serbs until they've turned over all their indicted war criminals, including Mr. Karadzic. But one reason Serb voters have turned toward peace and away from hard-liners is that they've seen the . rest of Bosnia benefiting from international aid while they languish. Unemployment rates remain at 90% in Srpska, for example, while they've fallen to "only" 37% in the rest of the country. Now Mr. Dodik needs similarly to show voters that being pro-peace and pro-Dayton brings rewards— that the West isn't anti- Serb. To the extent the ultra- nationalists maintain control of Pale and the eastern region, voters there need to see that Serbs in the west— the cooperating part—also enjoy some fruits of economic integration. That will further undermine Mr. Karadzic's position. And it's just as important for the West to keep applying pressure against nationalists in non-Serb communities, who also are a major bar to peace.
All this comes in the context of President Clinton's decision to extend a U.S. military presence in Bosnia beyond his self-imposed deadline of next June. Given the slow but sure progress being made, and the unspeakable dangers of a sudden withdrawal, this is the right move.

When tragedy strikes...
When tragedy strikes, before friends and family can lend comfort, a helping hand, a thoughtful ear and a few well-chosen words are needed at the scene.
Being there, however, is most important. With the bustle of paramedic and police and fire
activity, sometimes a friendly face is all a victim needs to see. That's where the Trauma Intervention Team
•'-Hit'" comes m. This group of volunteers is on call to assist in
providing "emotional first-aid the first couple of hours of the trauma" TIP crisis team leader Marion Thomas said in a News report last week.
The volunteers are screened and trained before they attempt to counsel family members of victims of traffic accidents, fires and other tragedies.
It's tough work and certainly not for everyone, no question, but it's needed in communities of all sizes — when accidents can happen any time of the day or night.
The 13-year-old national program is in its second year in Henderson, and the News encourages residents to consider helping.
A new training session for TIP volunteers will begin Feb. 19 at the Henderson Training Center, Parkson and Warm Spring Road. Call 459-1055 for more information.

RICHARD COHEN
Exterminate a rat At one of the closed Capitol Hill
briefings given by the CHnton administration over the Iraq crisis, a member of Congress likened Saddam Hussein to the Energizer Bunny—the one that keeps on going. No, said the administration's briefer, the Iraqi dictator was more like the toy mole in the "Whack a Mole" game. It comes up one hole, you bop it on the head and it comes up another. ;
Choose your analogy^bunny or mole-neither way the lesson is clear:
' Saddam is going to be around for the foreseeable future.
I For the U.S. and it&^remaining Gulf War allies, the anticipated
j military action against Iraq has a resigned, world-weary quality to it.
I Not only is it anticipated that ! Saddam will survivfe, but he is I expected in due course to return to \ his old behavior. This mole never
gives up. j The hope—it may, in fact, be
closer to a dream—is that critical elements of Iraqi society will bUme Saddam for their misery. That's why the bombardment being contemplated may not turn out to be a brief affair, but one of prolonged duration—maybe a couple of weeks or so. The aim i,s to so hurt the Iraqi military, especially Saddam's cherished Republican Guard, that they will oitfior demand that he abide by the agreement he made with the United Nations or —dream on — dispatch him to an emeritus status, posthumously of course.
The chances of that happening are, however, only slightly better than the chance of catching Saddam out in the open and parting his hair with a very smart bomb. But the administration figures it has no choice but to proceed anyway, knowing that victory (in the old
sense of capitulation) is unattainable. It is even far from certain that, when the bombing ceases, the U.N. inspectors will once again be granted access to whatever area intrigues them.
The scenario is simultaneously unsatisfying and inevitable. The only way to ensure Saddam's removal would be to send in ground troops. (About 100,000 would be needed.) But Saudi Arabia, the launching pad for the 1991 allied invasion of Kuwait and Iraq, is unavailable this time airbun.4 '^Q-tjipt .. only will there be no massive invasion, no American ground troops at all will be used.
Yet another—if unspoken—option is to do nothing. That, though, would mean allowing Saddam to continue his weapons program and, in short order, intimidate much of the Middle East. Moreover, it would spell the end of the United Nations as an efTective international organization. Up to now, it really has accomplished much in Iraq, destroying more weaponry through inspections than the allies did from the air in the Gulf War. (The United Nations, in fact, has been so effective that Congress ought to consider paying the U.S. dues.)
In one sense, Saddam represents a no-brainer. The man is ^o vile, so evil, so patently irrational that letting him get hrs way is Simply not an option. Still, military action is a perilous cour.se. It will produce what is called collateral damage—a fancy term for the accidental killing of civilians and, possibly, the unintentional destruction of a school or mosque. That, in turn, will provoke protests in
parts of the Arab world --nJordan, probably, and Egypt as well. In both countries, the U.S. is already considered the protector of a recalcitrant Israeli government.
As for Israel itself, it can expect that Iraq will send some missiles its way — maybe armed with chemical or
biological agents. The United Nations has never been able to account for all the chemical or biological weapons Iraq was once thought to have — and, possibly, even more have been produced. The same i« triie for their Scud missiles. Iraq has some, that's for sure, although the exact number is anyone's guess. If the U.S. laiinches air strikes against Iraq, there's a fair chance innocent IsraeHs will die as well — more collateral damage. This, after all, is not Israel's fight.
None of the options available to the Clinton administration are any good. But the worst would be to allow a sociopath like Saddam to develop chemical or, in particular, biological weapons which, almost certainly, he would use. (He already has used poison gas against his own people). He is not, to return to metaphor, a mole but a rat. It would be best to exterminate him but, barring that, he needs to be whacked. Sometimes in statecraft, as in life itself, all you can do is what you can.

Legislative reform needed
g z

The way bills wore handled during the last legislative session is the reason that Nevada needs legislative reform.
A great number of bills concerning public education were poorly conceived, written, buried in committee, not brought up for public hearing, then passed into law. That's no way to run a legislature.
While many of our representa- tives talk about education reform, they need also to concentrate on legislative reform. Those who are giving that lip service are merely talking about putting a limit on the number of days the session will last. While that's nice, it won't be their decision. Nevadans will vote to make sure our representatives get right to work rather than wasting the first few months of the session as they have in the past.
While I favor having a shorter session, I believe the way the Nevada legislature does business is in need of reform. Too often bills are held up by one committee chairperson to be used as a bargaining chip at the end of the session. The power of committee chairs has to be addressed.
If they can hold bills to the end of the session, without any kind of hearings, then why do 1 bother to vote for a representative? The only people with access to these chairs at the end of the session are the lobbyists writing some of these atrocities or special interest groups.
I believe that bills assigned to committee should be heard within a time certain. Any bill that is not heard during that timeframe should be automatically passed out of committee for a vote by the people we send to Carson City.
I would also suggest that no new bills be allowed during the last few weeks of the legislature. Having
close to 50% of the state's legislation being voted on at the end of the session is a recipe for stupidity.
There are only so many people that work at the Legislative Council Bureau who write these bills for Legislators. If they are working 18 to 22 hours per day at the end of the session trying to get these bills written, it does not give them enough time or sleep to determine if the bills they are drafting are addressing the true concerns of the originator of the bill. It does not give other legislators time to even read the bill that will be brought to a vote.
Most people I have talked to agree much of the legislation passed last session was poorly written because of the abuses of the chairs. While I personally agreed in concept with many of those bills, the bills have m'any flaws because there was not public testimony on them.
The charter bill was a waste of taxpayer money, the attendance/ truancy bill certainly needs much work as does the crown jewel of last session's legislature, Nevada's Educational Reform Act.
Put yourself in this situation. You are a private school beginning with fourth grade. All students come from different schools in the community. The second month these kids are in your school, October, the state tests them on what was taught to them in first, second and third grades. When the results are reported later that year, your school—that had nothing to do with the students' first, second, or third grade education—is labeled as "inadequate" because of their test performance.
Do you see anything wrong with that picture? How can a school that only had kids for little more than a month be responsible and labeled inadequate? Let's just call that a flaw.
Adding to that, the K-3 schools that prepared the students won't be identified nor will they receive any
funds set aside by the legislature to address remediation needs of their students. The effects of poorly written legislation snowball.
By the way, the story line is not any different if you represent a public school starting with fourth grade.
While mtmy committees in the legislature schedule meetings, take testimony, study the issues, and work hard, other committees do not.
The state spends more than 50% of its budget on education. You'd think legislators would take the subject seriously. You know there is a problem when many of our elected legislators do their utmost to introduce education legislation in other committees to by-pass the Assembly Education Committee.
Some legislators will tell you they are reforming the legislative process by ending the session earlier. That's not enough!
Committee chairs have to have their power curtailed so the public is informed and can testify before legislation is enacted.

Editor: „ My latest report on this CAT endeavor. Was I too presumptuous asking Santa Glaus to bring a bus shelter to that long-
suffering bus stop? You know the one ... on Sunset just around the comer from Boulder Highway? Or, was he just too busy with all his normal duties, delivering goodies to all the
boys and girls? And then again, CAT did promise a bus shelter by September 1997. How do we sort this out? CAT did not live up to its promises! How long do we have to wait? For your information, CAT, the art deco rocks are back.. .spread over the area! I saw a senior citizen sitting on one of those rocks last Friday How about it, CAT? A compromise? HoV about a bench? I wonder if the Leprechaims could help me or maybe the Easter Bimny? What say you, CAT? ___^_«^^_-«..^_««
DOROTHY NORMAN COOKE
Campaign donations: More reform needed
^ There is no problem with Circus Circus dumping nearly all of its $300,000 in contributions into Kenny Guinn's campaign one day before a new law would reduce the maximum to half of that. The old law was still ir effect, and the casino corporation had every right to act under it. All of us— businesses and individuals—rush to achieve advantages we would lose under expiring-I^ws, from gaining tax deductions to paying fees to doing a host of other things. It is the way we operate under a system based upon law. If it's legal, we can do it until it is not legal.
So when Circus Circus's various corporate entities each donated $20,000 on Nov. 26 of last year, they were certainly within their rights— even though on Nov. 27 these donations would be limited to $10,000. And if Guinn other donors did the same, they were within their rights also.
The problem here is not with how corporations and individuals actfed under the law; the problem is with the law itself The earlier law permitted corporations and other special interests to donate far too much to election campaigns. And while the 1997 reform law improved that by halving the maximum donation, it failed to do anything to prevent inter-linked corporations from funneling large amounts of money into specific campaigns. Thus Circus Circus or any other corporate structure can still donate up to $10,000 from a host of sub- corporations and allied businesses which the law looks on as separate
entities but which in reality are one and the,same. Divide $20,000 into the $300,000 that came from Circus Circus hotel-casinos, development and finance firms and a fuel company, and you find that the $300,000 came from up to 15 entities. Even under the $10,000 limit, this gives Circus Circus and other giant corporations the ability to give huge sums to candidates. And these candidates know as well as the voters do that all of these contributions represent the same interest and hope for the same legislation in their favor. So the special interests continue to hold grg^t power in elections.
Reno Assemblyman Pete Ernaut, who is the campaign chief in Guinn's run for the governorship, argues that if these "bundled" donations are forbidden, the political process would be limited to the very rich. That is certainly a concern given the horrendous cost of campaigning these days. This state, and this nation, must find ways to limit campaign
spending in all areas, and return some sense to the process. But even so, the Nevada Legislature would do citizens a great favor by limiting the amount of money that bundled corporations can donate. The very rich, at least, do not owe anybody anything except themselves; while the not-so-rich becon»e beholden to special interests on a vast monetary scalq that injures the political process. Quite probably, voters would be more than pleased to tackle this issue now, and deal with the billionaires later.

Progress in Bosnia
In a country as fractured as Bosnia, the word "break-through" is invoked at considerable peril. But
. there is no question that a httle- noticed development in the Serbian portion of Bosnia last month represents, at the least, a significant step forward in the difficult process of restoring peace and building a new nation out of the wreckage of the post-Yugoslavia war. The parliament of the Republika Srpska, as it is known, chose as prime minister Milorad Dodik, 38, who supports democratization, the Dayton accords and integration with the Croat and Muslim institutions of the tripartite state. His election, by the narrowest of margins, delivers a blow to the Serb nationalist forces controlled by Radovan Karadzic that have been the single biggest—though by no means only—obstacle to the peace process.
The weakening of the nationalist Serb forces follows a conscious strategy by the U.S. and its NATO allies. Mr. Karadzic, an indicted war criminal, has been deprived of the media and police he used to maintain power and enrich himself. Now his forces stand to lose their last source of authority, the power to tax and impose customs duties. From their last redoubt in eastern Srpska, they have been reduced to decrying Mr. Dodik's election as "undemocratic" and warning—correctly, we hope— that the new government will work toward the reintegration of Republika Srpska into the Bosnian state.
What's important now is for the West to capitalize on Mr. Dodik's election by supporting his new government, financially as well as politically. Some members of Congress don't want any aid funds going to any Serbs until they've turned over all their indicted war criminals, including Mr. Karadzic. But one reason Serb voters have turned toward peace and away from hard-liners is that they've seen the . rest of Bosnia benefiting from international aid while they languish. Unemployment rates remain at 90% in Srpska, for example, while they've fallen to "only" 37% in the rest of the country. Now Mr. Dodik needs similarly to show voters that being pro-peace and pro-Dayton brings rewards— that the West isn't anti- Serb. To the extent the ultra- nationalists maintain control of Pale and the eastern region, voters there need to see that Serbs in the west— the cooperating part—also enjoy some fruits of economic integration. That will further undermine Mr. Karadzic's position. And it's just as important for the West to keep applying pressure against nationalists in non-Serb communities, who also are a major bar to peace.
All this comes in the context of President Clinton's decision to extend a U.S. military presence in Bosnia beyond his self-imposed deadline of next June. Given the slow but sure progress being made, and the unspeakable dangers of a sudden withdrawal, this is the right move.

Gray spends Christmas in Costa Rica BE HEARD • 585-9879
There's no snow, no multi-col- • ored light extravaganza, no Santa Claus at the mall—in fact, no mall. So how do you "do" Christmas in - Costa Rica?
It starts out with a bang, liter- ally, when a crowing rooster is upstaged by a festive firecracker. AJPter that, Mass at the church in Santa Elena and then a walk through the Reserva Santa Elena, the famous cloud forest, where it seems even the wildlife observe the holiday with sabbath stillness. And for toppers, dinner overlook- ing the active Arenal volcano.
W3Tiona Gray, an employee of the Lower Colorado Dam Facility and resident of Henderson, spent two weeks in December as a member ofa team of volunteers in Santa Elena, Costa Rica. The 10 volunteers and their Global Vol- unteers team leader were part of an on-going service program, co- ordinated by Global Volunteers, in this rural town.
The volunteers joined people of the community on projects tar- geted by the community leaders harvesting coffee, painting a com- munity building, enlarging a cooperatively-run grocery store and digging an irrigation cUtch.
In the process, the volunteers learned about life in this beauti- ful, rugged country.
"We noticed how affectionate
GRAY IN COSTA RICA — Henderson's Wynona Gray spent two weeks In December in Costa Rica as part of the Global Volunteers. She helps harvest coffee, paint a building, enlarge a grocery store and dig an irrigation ditch. families are with each other and how respectful the children are," Gray said. Renowned for its cloud forest, rain forests, verdant mountains, active volcanoes and natural hot springs, Costa Rica is also respected for its long history of peaceful conflict resolution and lack of military, despite its pre- carious location in Central America.
Travel is always an adventure, and pari;icularly so in Costa Rica, where winding, bumpy mounteun roads are sometimes blocked by obstacles more palpable than fog.
"Three of us were on our way to work on the irrigation ditch when a bull blocked the path. Coco, the town dog, made the bull move so we could continue on our way," Gray said.
Gray also shopped the local markets, ate delicious meals ("our breakfast was fhiits, scrambled eggs, black beans and rice, and coflFee"), hiked through the cloud forest on trails made by previous teams of Global Volunteers, visited the Mariposa Butterfly Farm, soaked in local hot springs and gingerly crossed swaying sus-
pension bridges on a Sky Walk through the rain forest.
Christmas tradition and a local art in Costa Rica is the making of tamales. Volunteers were invited to learn this art in the kitchens of pros—the local women. They ground com, dried banana leaves, cut vegetables and pulled strings ^om bags to tie the tamales. The vegetable/rice/com ensemble is wrapped in dried banana leaves, tied with string and cooked.
An entry in the team's journal on Christmas Day reads: "For us, there was no Christmas tree nor exchange of gifts. For those of us who wanted to put some meaning into our lives at Christmas, we found the simplicity vrith which the villagers celebrated this day very refreshing. We felt gratitude for receiving renewed sensitivity to people of the world, the beau- ties of the earth and the blessings in our Uves."
This service program was coor- dinated by Global Volunteers, a private, non-profit organization that coordinates more than .125 teams of volunteers at sites in 17 other countries year rovmd.
For a current schedule and more information on each pro- gram, contact Global Volunteers, (800)487-1074, 375 E. Little Canada Rd., St. Paul, MN 55117.

Gray spends Christmas in Costa Rica BE HEARD • 585-9879
There's no snow, no multi-col- • ored light extravaganza, no Santa Claus at the mall—in fact, no mall. So how do you "do" Christmas in - Costa Rica?
It starts out with a bang, liter- ally, when a crowing rooster is upstaged by a festive firecracker. AJPter that, Mass at the church in Santa Elena and then a walk through the Reserva Santa Elena, the famous cloud forest, where it seems even the wildlife observe the holiday with sabbath stillness. And for toppers, dinner overlook- ing the active Arenal volcano.
W3Tiona Gray, an employee of the Lower Colorado Dam Facility and resident of Henderson, spent two weeks in December as a member ofa team of volunteers in Santa Elena, Costa Rica. The 10 volunteers and their Global Vol- unteers team leader were part of an on-going service program, co- ordinated by Global Volunteers, in this rural town.
The volunteers joined people of the community on projects tar- geted by the community leaders harvesting coffee, painting a com- munity building, enlarging a cooperatively-run grocery store and digging an irrigation cUtch.
In the process, the volunteers learned about life in this beauti- ful, rugged country.
"We noticed how affectionate
GRAY IN COSTA RICA — Henderson's Wynona Gray spent two weeks In December in Costa Rica as part of the Global Volunteers. She helps harvest coffee, paint a building, enlarge a grocery store and dig an irrigation ditch. families are with each other and how respectful the children are," Gray said. Renowned for its cloud forest, rain forests, verdant mountains, active volcanoes and natural hot springs, Costa Rica is also respected for its long history of peaceful conflict resolution and lack of military, despite its pre- carious location in Central America.
Travel is always an adventure, and pari;icularly so in Costa Rica, where winding, bumpy mounteun roads are sometimes blocked by obstacles more palpable than fog.
"Three of us were on our way to work on the irrigation ditch when a bull blocked the path. Coco, the town dog, made the bull move so we could continue on our way," Gray said.
Gray also shopped the local markets, ate delicious meals ("our breakfast was fhiits, scrambled eggs, black beans and rice, and coflFee"), hiked through the cloud forest on trails made by previous teams of Global Volunteers, visited the Mariposa Butterfly Farm, soaked in local hot springs and gingerly crossed swaying sus-
pension bridges on a Sky Walk through the rain forest.
Christmas tradition and a local art in Costa Rica is the making of tamales. Volunteers were invited to learn this art in the kitchens of pros—the local women. They ground com, dried banana leaves, cut vegetables and pulled strings ^om bags to tie the tamales. The vegetable/rice/com ensemble is wrapped in dried banana leaves, tied with string and cooked.
An entry in the team's journal on Christmas Day reads: "For us, there was no Christmas tree nor exchange of gifts. For those of us who wanted to put some meaning into our lives at Christmas, we found the simplicity vrith which the villagers celebrated this day very refreshing. We felt gratitude for receiving renewed sensitivity to people of the world, the beau- ties of the earth and the blessings in our Uves."
This service program was coor- dinated by Global Volunteers, a private, non-profit organization that coordinates more than .125 teams of volunteers at sites in 17 other countries year rovmd.
For a current schedule and more information on each pro- gram, contact Global Volunteers, (800)487-1074, 375 E. Little Canada Rd., St. Paul, MN 55117.

McCaw kids save the day
Thursday, February 12, 1998 Henderson Home News Page 13
Sharon Jackson News Staff Writer
Two fourth-grade boys were riding bicycles at McCaw El- ementary School Saturday afternoon and ended up saving taxpayers thousands of dollars.
The problein was noticed when Justin Dahl and Matt Mulhollem saw a puddle outside the multi- purpose room.
"They were resflly observant and noticed water coming from the inside of the door," McCaw principal Janet Dobry said.
She just happened to be at school that day for a meeting.
"They really insisted I just had to come and check this out, and sure enough, 1 opened the door and there was an inch of water all over the multi-purpose room and kitchen floor and you could hear water running," she said. "It was just coming out like water coming out of a faucet."
A water heater in the attic sprung a leak and caused a flood.
The ceiling.tile was falling and . -ihfenlanager'sdesk in the kitchen,
including the computer and tele- phone, was sitting in water.
A custodian and school district emergency crew was called to turn off the water to the heater.
"Basically by them alerting us to the problem they saved tax- payers thousands of dollars," Dobry said. "No one was expected to be in the area until Monday. If water would have been rurming for 36 hours longer, we would have had a muck deeper accumulation
^ ...it would have ruined everything on the bottom shelves [in the kitchen] and the electrical appli-
ances would have been compro- mised ... and who knows what would have happened to the ceil- ing."
Dahl and Mulhollem not only made Monday better by alerting' the proper authorities to the situation, but they also stayed to help clean up the mess.
"We are just really proud of
these kids, they did the right thing and the" fact they stayed to help with the clean up—that is pretty dam nice, too. It shows that kids can be and are responsible," Dobry said.
Dr. Pat Herron, assistant su- perintendent of facilities and transportation congratulated the boys and presented each of them Arith a $25 gift certificate to Wal- mart.

Alexandra L. Ferguson, a cer- tified Reflexologist of the American Reflexology Certifica- tion Board will be the instructor.
Registration is required as seating is limited. To reserve a seat, call 458-8992.
Reflexology is a scientific art based on the premise that within the feet, hands and ears are re- flexes which directly correspond to all parts of the body. Using fingers and thumbs, specific pressure is applied to these areas, causinga reduction in stress which in turn may create physiological changes.
Reflexology is gaining recogni- tion as a complimentary therapy, a spokesman said. A complimen- tary therapy is one which works well with, in s^'{)port of and does not compete wjihltraditional form s of stress reduction and medical therapies.
While reflexology is not a medical or healing treatment for specific ills of the body, its ability
to reduce stress has long lfeerr~p seen as a benefit.
There will be one hour of lec- ture and discussion followed by one hour of hands-on instruction tor self-help techniques.

Basic teams with Durango to make 'Horrors' D.B. Marcinlak News Staff Writer
Producing a play becomes quite a production for many valley schools as directors seek the most cost-effective way to produce a memorable and educational ex- perience for their students.
This may be so, but when two valley high schools put their heads together, producing a play be- comes a "Little Shop of Horrors."
Basic and Durango High Schools have accomplished the unusual feat of building an au- thentic set to the play about a plant whose thirst for blood acts as a fertilizer for its growth. The play will appear at Durango HS Feb. 10-13.
While schools have hel ped each other to build a set before, what's most interesting about this project is the complexity of the set. The set is unique because of the large, fully operational plants which were built.
Since there are no useable sets on the West Coast, Basic's theatre teacher Helene Laatikainen de- cided to team with Durango's theatre teacher to bring a set to the area. Through sharing the set, the schools hope to rent the pieces toother schools in the state and on the West Coast to make a profit for their theatre programs.
"Both of uscut ourselves two to three times each. We were bleed- ing all over it, then the students came along with their sewing needles and pricked themselves some more," Laatikainen said. "We said. This plant is already taking its victims.'"
Laatikainen and her husband Wayne, who works as an engineer, designed and built the monstrous plants at Basic and transported them to Durango for the produc- tion.
As the story goes, each timethe plant gets a taste of blood, it un- expectedly grows. To have an authentic set, the schools built several plants of various sizes. The plants are fully functional with operating pods which nip like a mouth. This is an essential part of the story because it reflects the personality of the plant, the collaborating teachers said.
Building the frame to the smaller plants was not as difficult at the large one, which is nearly the size of a Volkeswagen Bug. The largest plant is designed to tit

one person inside to operate its jowls as the plant searches for its next victim in the play.
"When you get the score, you get plans to build the set. There are no measurements though. It's just a pretty picture and here it is," she said.
There likely arenotmore "Little
Shop of Horrors" sets because it requires a lot of time and expertise to build, she said.
"It intimidates them [directors to build]," Laatikainen said. "Had I never done it, I would have been shaking in my boots, but I've done it before so I thought, 'Come on. You can do it,'" she said.
With the help of drama stu- dents, she and her husband built the set using expertise fi-om past experiences with similar sets.
"What happened is I've done the show two times myself and it finally ended up being an 'Act of Congress' to get a set for the show," Laatikainen said.
Not only did Basic have to have a set shipped from across the country, but when it arrived both times, it almost had to be rebuilt, she said.
Working since before Christ- mas, the Basic group of students helped sew, staple and glue foam and fabric to the plant monsters. Sometimes working 10 hours in a day, students labored to produce, the set on time.
It cost the schools $1,100 to
build the set from scratch, nearly
half of what it would have if they were to rent it and have it shipped across the country.
The pieces will be stored at Durango, but when Basic produces the play in the upcoming year, they will merfely ship it across town. Advertising on the Internet, the two schools plan to market
Theatre in the Valley will present "Squabbles" by Marshall Karp, directed by Lee Feldman, at the Kesterson Valley View Rec- reation Center, at Harris and Basic, in Henderson.
The comedy is about a young couple and their in-laws; Because of unforseen circumstances it is necessary for the in-laws to move in with their children. Needless to say, mom and dad are far from compatible, leaving the kids searching for solutions.
Robert Abel plays the cur- mudgeon father-in-law, Diane Kremser the mother-in-law, Erin Auerbach and Henry Cutrona are the frustrated young couple.
Ken Feldman is Dad's card playing buddy, Ed Clayton is handyman Hector Lopez, with a penchant for making himself right at home and Charlotte Walton is the no-nonsense governess who resembles the Bride of Franken- stein.
Performances are at 8 p.m., ' Fridays and Saturdays, Feb. 13-
28; and at 2 p.m. Sundays. Tickets are $9 general admission, $6 for students and seniors.
For information and reserva- tions call 458-PLAY. their work and spUt any profits from renting the pieces.
"Theatre by nature is an en- semble experience. That is how we operate," Laatikainen said.
"We have a relationship with these kids," she said. "That [building the sets together] was one of those bridges we built for a stronger relationship."
To perform Little Shop of Hor- rors, the school would have had to pay fit)m $800 to $1,000 one way to have a set shipped in fi-om Illi- nois, the collaborating teachers said.
"We should be cordial in shar- ing what we have and not vicious because we're rival high schools," said Durango theatre teacher Colleen Brown.
She added the collaborative project is a perfect exam pie of how schools tan work together for one common goal — doing something which benefits the students in- volved.
"I love big shows because it gets more kids involved," shesaid. "It saves some lives. It gets them off the streets after school."
Brown said one student who is known as a trouble-maker dis- covered by becoming involved in the project, he had a fiin alterna- tive to hanging out with his friends after school and causing harm to others.

"They were resflly observant and noticed water coming from the inside of the door," McCaw principal Janet Dobry said.
She just happened to be at school that day for a meeting.
"They really insisted I just had to come and check this out, and sure enough, 1 opened the door and there was an inch of water all over the multi-purpose room and kitchen floor and you could hear water running," she said. "It was just coming out like water coming out of a faucet."
A water heater in the attic sprung a leak and caused a flood.
The ceiling.tile was falling and . -ihfenlanager'sdesk in the kitchen,
including the computer and tele- phone, was sitting in water.
A custodian and school district emergency crew was called to turn off the water to the heater.
"Basically by them alerting us to the problem they saved tax- payers thousands of dollars," Dobry said. "No one was expected to be in the area until Monday. If water would have been rurming for 36 hours longer, we would have had a muck deeper accumulation
^ ...it would have ruined everything on the bottom shelves [in the kitchen] and the electrical appli-
ances would have been compro- mised ... and who knows what would have happened to the ceil- ing."
Dahl and Mulhollem not only made Monday better by alerting' the proper authorities to the situation, but they also stayed to help clean up the mess.
"We are just really proud of
these kids, they did the right thing and the" fact they stayed to help with the clean up—that is pretty dam nice, too. It shows that kids can be and are responsible," Dobry said.
Dr. Pat Herron, assistant su- perintendent of facilities and transportation congratulated the boys and presented each of them Arith a $25 gift certificate to Wal- mart.

Reflexology is a scientific art based on the premise that within the feet, hands and ears are re- flexes which directly correspond to all parts of the body. Using fingers and thumbs, specific pressure is applied to these areas, causinga reduction in stress which in turn may create physiological changes.
Reflexology is gaining recogni- tion as a complimentary therapy, a spokesman said. A complimen- tary therapy is one which works well with, in s^'{)port of and does not compete wjihltraditional form s of stress reduction and medical therapies.
While reflexology is not a medical or healing treatment for specific ills of the body, its ability
to reduce stress has long lfeerr~p seen as a benefit.
There will be one hour of lec- ture and discussion followed by one hour of hands-on instruction tor self-help techniques.

Basic teams with Durango to make 'Horrors' D.B. Marcinlak News Staff Writer
Producing a play becomes quite a production for many valley schools as directors seek the most cost-effective way to produce a memorable and educational ex- perience for their students.
This may be so, but when two valley high schools put their heads together, producing a play be- comes a "Little Shop of Horrors."
Basic and Durango High Schools have accomplished the unusual feat of building an au- thentic set to the play about a plant whose thirst for blood acts as a fertilizer for its growth. The play will appear at Durango HS Feb. 10-13.
While schools have hel ped each other to build a set before, what's most interesting about this project is the complexity of the set. The set is unique because of the large, fully operational plants which were built.
Since there are no useable sets on the West Coast, Basic's theatre teacher Helene Laatikainen de- cided to team with Durango's theatre teacher to bring a set to the area. Through sharing the set, the schools hope to rent the pieces toother schools in the state and on the West Coast to make a profit for their theatre programs.
"Both of uscut ourselves two to three times each. We were bleed- ing all over it, then the students came along with their sewing needles and pricked themselves some more," Laatikainen said. "We said. This plant is already taking its victims.'"
Laatikainen and her husband Wayne, who works as an engineer, designed and built the monstrous plants at Basic and transported them to Durango for the produc- tion.
As the story goes, each timethe plant gets a taste of blood, it un- expectedly grows. To have an authentic set, the schools built several plants of various sizes. The plants are fully functional with operating pods which nip like a mouth. This is an essential part of the story because it reflects the personality of the plant, the collaborating teachers said.
Building the frame to the smaller plants was not as difficult at the large one, which is nearly the size of a Volkeswagen Bug. The largest plant is designed to tit

one person inside to operate its jowls as the plant searches for its next victim in the play.
"When you get the score, you get plans to build the set. There are no measurements though. It's just a pretty picture and here it is," she said.
There likely arenotmore "Little
Shop of Horrors" sets because it requires a lot of time and expertise to build, she said.
"It intimidates them [directors to build]," Laatikainen said. "Had I never done it, I would have been shaking in my boots, but I've done it before so I thought, 'Come on. You can do it,'" she said.
With the help of drama stu- dents, she and her husband built the set using expertise fi-om past experiences with similar sets.
"What happened is I've done the show two times myself and it finally ended up being an 'Act of Congress' to get a set for the show," Laatikainen said.
Not only did Basic have to have a set shipped from across the country, but when it arrived both times, it almost had to be rebuilt, she said.
Working since before Christ- mas, the Basic group of students helped sew, staple and glue foam and fabric to the plant monsters. Sometimes working 10 hours in a day, students labored to produce, the set on time.
It cost the schools $1,100 to
build the set from scratch, nearly
half of what it would have if they were to rent it and have it shipped across the country.
The pieces will be stored at Durango, but when Basic produces the play in the upcoming year, they will merfely ship it across town. Advertising on the Internet, the two schools plan to market
Theatre in the Valley will present "Squabbles" by Marshall Karp, directed by Lee Feldman, at the Kesterson Valley View Rec- reation Center, at Harris and Basic, in Henderson.
The comedy is about a young couple and their in-laws; Because of unforseen circumstances it is necessary for the in-laws to move in with their children. Needless to say, mom and dad are far from compatible, leaving the kids searching for solutions.
Robert Abel plays the cur- mudgeon father-in-law, Diane Kremser the mother-in-law, Erin Auerbach and Henry Cutrona are the frustrated young couple.
Ken Feldman is Dad's card playing buddy, Ed Clayton is handyman Hector Lopez, with a penchant for making himself right at home and Charlotte Walton is the no-nonsense governess who resembles the Bride of Franken- stein.
Performances are at 8 p.m., ' Fridays and Saturdays, Feb. 13-
28; and at 2 p.m. Sundays. Tickets are $9 general admission, $6 for students and seniors.
For information and reserva- tions call 458-PLAY. their work and spUt any profits from renting the pieces.
"Theatre by nature is an en- semble experience. That is how we operate," Laatikainen said.
"We have a relationship with these kids," she said. "That [building the sets together] was one of those bridges we built for a stronger relationship."
To perform Little Shop of Hor- rors, the school would have had to pay fit)m $800 to $1,000 one way to have a set shipped in fi-om Illi- nois, the collaborating teachers said.
"We should be cordial in shar- ing what we have and not vicious because we're rival high schools," said Durango theatre teacher Colleen Brown.
She added the collaborative project is a perfect exam pie of how schools tan work together for one common goal — doing something which benefits the students in- volved.
"I love big shows because it gets more kids involved," shesaid. "It saves some lives. It gets them off the streets after school."
Brown said one student who is known as a trouble-maker dis- covered by becoming involved in the project, he had a fiin alterna- tive to hanging out with his friends after school and causing harm to others.

Wolves earn spot in soccer playoffs By the News Staff
For the Basic Wolves girls soccer tearri, the first time is a charm.
From the first day of practice, the Wolves were focused on becoming the first girls soccer team from Basic to advance to the post-season.
They reaUzed that dream on Tuesday night.
With a 4-3 win over Rancho, the Wolves officially qualified for the Southern zone soccer tournament.
They've been working so hard," Basic coach Debra Jamison said. "They want to win and are very excited."
After Rancho took an early 1-0 advantage, the Wolves' Ciera Diaz scored three straight goals to give Basic a 3-1 advantage.
Rancho would eventually cut the deficit to 3-2 before halflime. -
In the second half, Rochele McLean slotted to give Basic a two goal advantage and the Wolves' defense held on for the victory.
It's now oh to the next challenge—turning heads at zone.

Wildcats hold on to beat Gators Bill Bowman News Sports Editor
How quickly can a basketball team's fortunes turn around?
In the blink of an eye. The Green Valley boys bas-
ketball team found that out Monday night in a heart-pounding 83-79 loss to Las Vegas High School.
The Gators trailed by seven points with four seconds left in the first half
In that final four seconds — or about as quifck as couple of blinks of your eye — the Wildcats scored four points to open up an 11-poVnt lead at the half
The Wildcats then survived several Gator comeback attempts in the second half and held on for the victory.
That four points turned out to be the difference," Green Valley coach Larry Thomas said. "Itcame back to haunt us... that's what we lost by."
In ^ame in which the Gators never led, the two teams played on even terms for the first 3:37 with the score tied at 2-2,4-4,6-6, 9-9 and 12-12.
Las Vegas then scored seven straight points and the Gators would try to play catchup the rest of the night.
"It wasn't because of a lack of effort," Thomas said. "Vegas just did a great job. They made all of their second shots and that helped."
Green Valley got to within three points with 1:45 left in the game on a basket by Mitch Kallick, but the Wildcats held on for the vic- tory.
"We've got good kids who fight hard," Thomas said. "We had op- portunities at the end, but we couldn't capitalize."
Cornell Williams topped the Gators with 27 points while Jaifiar Glasper added 21. Kallick had 15 points and Jeff Platt chipped in 12.
Ronnie Jones topped the Wildcats with 23 points, including 13 in the second quarter while Las Vegas went on a 23-16 run to open a 46-35 h£ilfljme lead.
The kids played hard,"Thomas said. "We made some adjustments, but we just didn't get the job done."
The Gators are now 16-5 overall and 12-2 in Sunrise play.

Wrestlers gear up for zone Gary Thiessen News Staff Writer
"Let's get ready to rumble" is the cry as area high school wres- tlers get ready for this weekend's zone tournament.
The event will be held Friday and Saturday at Cimarron-Me- morial High School.
Silverado coach Bob Clements put the event into perspective.
"This is what the kids and coaches have been working for since November of last year," he said. "Winning the Sunrise Di- vision title was great, however, now is the time for us to focus on the zone and then the state tournament in Elko.
The top six wrestlers from each weight class will be seeded for the zone tournament.
The tournament gets under way Friday at 4 p.m. with the championship matches set for 7 p.m. Saturday.

Kevin Lochner, who only wrestled in three dual meets because of injury but won each match, will be looking for a good seed.
Billy Malmgren, Don Stansbury, Don Petrie and'Ja- son Burt are all set to go as well.
"It's the time of the year for each of our kids to combine tech- nique and mental focus on every match," Duschen said. "We need to give it our very best for each wrestler to reach their potential. To win is great... to know that you did your best is something you can live with."
GREEN VALLEY Green Valley coach Jimmy
May will suit up 14 wrestlers for the zone tournament, led by Bret Baumgardner (103), Luke Lichtenstein (160) and Ryan Baumgardner (135) who all fin- ished 7-0 in league dual matches.

For the Basic Wolves girls soccer tearri, the first time is a charm.
From the first day of practice, the Wolves were focused on becoming the first girls soccer team from Basic to advance to the post-season.
They reaUzed that dream on Tuesday night.
With a 4-3 win over Rancho, the Wolves officially qualified for the Southern zone soccer tournament.
They've been working so hard," Basic coach Debra Jamison said. "They want to win and are very excited."

Rancho would eventually cut the deficit to 3-2 before halflime. -
In the second half, Rochele McLean slotted to give Basic a two goal advantage and the Wolves' defense held on for the victory.

Wildcats hold on to beat Gators Bill Bowman News Sports Editor
How quickly can a basketball team's fortunes turn around?
In the blink of an eye. The Green Valley boys bas-
ketball team found that out Monday night in a heart-pounding 83-79 loss to Las Vegas High School.
The Gators trailed by seven points with four seconds left in the first half
In that final four seconds — or about as quifck as couple of blinks of your eye — the Wildcats scored four points to open up an 11-poVnt lead at the half
The Wildcats then survived several Gator comeback attempts in the second half and held on for the victory.
That four points turned out to be the difference," Green Valley coach Larry Thomas said. "Itcame back to haunt us... that's what we lost by."
In ^ame in which the Gators never led, the two teams played on even terms for the first 3:37 with the score tied at 2-2,4-4,6-6, 9-9 and 12-12.
Las Vegas then scored seven straight points and the Gators would try to play catchup the rest of the night.
"It wasn't because of a lack of effort," Thomas said. "Vegas just did a great job. They made all of their second shots and that helped."
Green Valley got to within three points with 1:45 left in the game on a basket by Mitch Kallick, but the Wildcats held on for the vic- tory.
"We've got good kids who fight hard," Thomas said. "We had op- portunities at the end, but we couldn't capitalize."
Cornell Williams topped the Gators with 27 points while Jaifiar Glasper added 21. Kallick had 15 points and Jeff Platt chipped in 12.
Ronnie Jones topped the Wildcats with 23 points, including 13 in the second quarter while Las Vegas went on a 23-16 run to open a 46-35 h£ilfljme lead.
The kids played hard,"Thomas said. "We made some adjustments, but we just didn't get the job done."
The Gators are now 16-5 overall and 12-2 in Sunrise play.

Wrestlers gear up for zone Gary Thiessen News Staff Writer
"Let's get ready to rumble" is the cry as area high school wres- tlers get ready for this weekend's zone tournament.
The event will be held Friday and Saturday at Cimarron-Me- morial High School.
Silverado coach Bob Clements put the event into perspective.
"This is what the kids and coaches have been working for since November of last year," he said. "Winning the Sunrise Di- vision title was great, however, now is the time for us to focus on the zone and then the state tournament in Elko.
The top six wrestlers from each weight class will be seeded for the zone tournament.
The tournament gets under way Friday at 4 p.m. with the championship matches set for 7 p.m. Saturday.
BASIC Wolves' coach Jim Duschen

Ray Gonzales, who fin- ished strong in league matches, will bring a 5-2 mark to zone. Kevin Lochner, who only wrestled in three dual meets because of injury but won each match, will be looking for a good seed.
Billy Malmgren, Don Stansbury, Don Petrie and'Ja- son Burt are all set to go as well.
"It's the time of the year for each of our kids to combine tech- nique and mental focus on every match," Duschen said. "We need to give it our very best for each wrestler to reach their potential. To win is great... to know that you did your best is something you can live with."
GREEN VALLEY Green Valley coach Jimmy
May will suit up 14 wrestlers for the zone tournament, led by Bret Baumgardner (103), Luke Lichtenstein (160) and Ryan Baumgardner (135) who all fin- ished 7-0 in league dual matches.

Experiencing tlie great out III rs Area Boy Souts hold Eagle Fire Rendezvous Barb Henderson Speical to the News
The BouWer Dam Area Coun- cil Boy Scouts of America, held
. their Eagle Fire Rendezvous last weekend, an event that allows Scouts to participate and com- pete in outdoor experiences.
For the historical "Mountain Man," these experiences were the i^ay of life.
Scouts aged 13 to 18 enjoyed many events including black powder shooting, cabor toss, gold panning, tracking and trapping, log sawing and were given the opportunity to learn other primi-
• tive skills. Several Scouts got into the spirit of the event by dressing in historical attire of the mountain men.
Rendezvous is one way for Scouts to appreciate the past and actually learn outdoor skills through participation.
This event, held in Jean, is one of many planned during Feb- ruary.
February marks the Boy Scouts of America's 88th anni- versary.
It is a youth organization pro- vidingeducation, responsibiUty, leadership skills and programs that will have a positive impact LOVE FLUTE — Rick Freeman of Great Bald Eagle Creations plays one of his hand- tunes electronically, are also known as "love flutes" as they were used by Native on youn^individuals. made Native American flutes.

ON THE SIDELINES D. J. ALLEN
Negative 'journalism' usually has its roots ' It was refreshing to see mega-sports agent I Leigh Steinberg discuss the Dallas Cowboys I and Jerry Jones last week instead of listening
to another biased, so-called, sports broadcast I journalist talk about the franchise.
Steinberg, who represents the Hkes of such National Football League stars as Steve Young and Troy Aikman, relayed on Fox Sports' "Last Word" last Thursday night a message that you will rarely ever find in today's media — the Cowboys are in good hands with Jones, who bought the struggling franchise prior to the 1989 season and returned it to elite status.
The Cowboys, one of the most storied franchises in all of American sports, cannot and will not escape the headlines — no matter the situation.
However, one thing needs to be remembered when the Cowboys are discussed — success brings jealousy.
Just look,at the Chicago Bulls or New York Yankees. For every One fan that lovgs the team with a passion, there is five fans that hate it.
Think about how many times you have
heard people say they hate the Arizona Cardinals or Los Angeles Clipp^ haven't.
Why? They don't win. This past weekend, I
heard a national radio talk show host boast to all of his listeners he was a "Yankee hater." He then continued to explain how bad of a decision it was for New York to acquire second baseman Chuck Knoblauch from the Minnesota Twins for four minor league prospects and cash.
It was an obvious opinion he stated as fact. But, he justified it being a bad trade for the sole reason he "hates" the Yankees.
That is what the media does with the Cowboys on a daily basis.
Example No-. 1. Much is made season after season about
Jones going down on the field at the end of the Dallas games.
How do you know he is there? Because the
networks always show him. Did you know it is a tradition for Denver
Broncos owner Pat Bowlen to head to his team's sideline with five minutes left in every game?
Is there something M^ong with the owner going to his sidelines at the end of a game to watch his team.
No. But, in Jones' case there seems to be. Example No. 2. In the past 12 months, how many Dallas
Cowboy players have been in trouble with the law or have been issued a suspension.
Zero. Michael Irvin's past is brought up on a daily
basis. Is it just me or did his now infamous motel room act occur during the same off-season that Brett Favrfi^pent time in a drug rehabilitation clinic?
Forgot above Favre, didn't you? Or, at least the media let you forget about him.
And, example No. 3**""^ In a day and age when sports stars are
considered to be self-centered and don't worry about their respective teams, Aikman has been just the opposite.
Last off-season, Aikman traveled across the
country to personally workout with the top five tight ends eligible for the draft.
Who better would you want to scout and work with a possible offensive draft pick than the team's starting quarterback — a three- time Super Bowl winner at that.
However, once again the critics came out on the Cowboys.
People asked, "Who's running the team?" and "Why does Aikman have so much power?"
For a winning team such asithe Dallas Cowboys, it isn't and will never, be a win-win situation. ^
There are millions of fans across the country that "hate" the Dallas Cowboys — and that doesn't exclude members of the media.
So the next time you hear a message regarding the Cowboys or any sports player or team for that matter, remember who the messenger is. "^
Looking at where they come from is usually morelnformative than what they have to say.

Valentine stories and poems for children
"I gave a hundred valentines. A hundred, did I say? I gave a thousand valentines one cold and wintry day ..." The poem is titled "Valentines," and the book, "Valentine's Day: Stories and Poems," edited by Caroline F. Bauer (1993, ages 4 and up), containsmany other poems, short stories, a recipe for chocolate candy, a bibliography of additional reading, and ways to say "I love you" in 12 different languages.
It is a silly, amusing, sweet, and engaging book which is sure to be a young poetry lover's delight.
In "Pete's Puddles," by Hannah Roche (1996, ages 3 to 6), it is raining outside so little Pete must play inside.
But, all is well because Sandra, his friend from down the street, comes over to paint with him.
Then Pete's mom decides to take them both shopping. On their way home, the rain stops and they decide it would be fun to visit a^ park to swing, play, and, of course, jump in every puddle they can find.
Back home, the day comes to a delicious conclusion with a big cup of yummy hot chocolate.
This little book, easy for small hands to hold, has a brief text with bright illustrations done in primary colors that will really appeal to little children eager to share books and experiences. Just make sure you have some hot chocolate ready when you share this story.
In "Winnie the Pooh's Valen- tine," by Bruce Talkington (1995, ages 3 to 7), Pooh Bear is busy decorating his home for a Valen- tine celebration when his friend, Roo, conies a-calling.
Roo is really worried. He wants to surprise his mom with a special valentine, but he doesn't know how to go about making one.
So, they put their heads to- gether and decide they need more heads. Enter Piglet, Tigger, Rab- bit, Gopher, and Eyeore to the rescue.
When the dust settles, a beau- tiful, but huge, boulder chiseled into the shape of a heart by Gopher, painted by Tigger, and inscribed by Roo is unveiled.
But this towering valentine does present a really large prob- lem. Never fear, Pooh and his

Boulder City Sailor visits Hong Kong ii| Oriental beauty, exotic sights,
massive crowds, towering build- ings, great night-life and excellent shopping opportunities mean one thing — Hong Kong.
These are some of the things that will come to mind when Boulder City's Randy W. Martin, 32, tells his family and friends about his visit to the Pearl of the Orient.
Navy Chief Petty Officer Mar- tin, the son of Marguerite Martin ofBoulder City, and his shipmates stationed aboard the guided mis- sile cruiser USS Lake Champlain, recently made a port visit to Hong Kong diuing a six-month tour.
For more than a century, Hong Kong has been a favorite stop for sailors on tours to the Western Pacific, Indian Ocean and Persian Gulf.
"During my visit I did a lot of shopping. Besides shopping, I in- dulged in many cultural activities
Randy W. Martin
like touring and eating various types of food. This was my sixth visit to Hong Kong and every time I've experienced something new," said Martin, a 1983 graduate of Boulder City High School.
He is a radar and navigation specialist on the Lake Champlain
where he uses radar in the tracking and identification of ships and aircraft.
For nearly 100 years. Hong Kong had been a British Crown Colony and U.S. warships made more than 60 port calls there annually. On July 1, the British handed over the South Pacific city to its new landlord. Communist China. Although Hong Kong is 40W under Communistnile, Mar-
tin was happy to find that the city's unique atmosphere, at least on the surface, was no different.
"In many ways, the people of Hong Kong are the same as us. Almost everywhere we went, we saw people with cellular tele- phones, dressed in suits and big on sports. Unlike the western cities, Hong Kong is built on small areas ofland, this gives the city its own unique beauty," Martin said.
Based in San Diego, Martin and the Lake Champlain are
currently enforcingU.N. sanctions against Iraq as part of Operation Southern Watch in the Arabian Gulf He feels it's important for the Navy to deploy ships Uke the Lake Champlain to the Middle East, especially when tensions with Iraq are high.

ON THE SIDELINES D. J. ALLEN
Negative 'journalism' usually has its roots ' It was refreshing to see mega-sports agent I Leigh Steinberg discuss the Dallas Cowboys I and Jerry Jones last week instead of listening
to another biased, so-called, sports broadcast I journalist talk about the franchise.
Steinberg, who represents the Hkes of such National Football League stars as Steve Young and Troy Aikman, relayed on Fox Sports' "Last Word" last Thursday night a message that you will rarely ever find in today's media — the Cowboys are in good hands with Jones, who bought the struggling franchise prior to the 1989 season and returned it to elite status.
The Cowboys, one of the most storied franchises in all of American sports, cannot and will not escape the headlines — no matter the situation.
However, one thing needs to be remembered when the Cowboys are discussed — success brings jealousy.
Just look,at the Chicago Bulls or New York Yankees. For every One fan that lovgs the team with a passion, there is five fans that hate it.
Think about how many times you have
heard people say they hate the Arizona Cardinals or Los Angeles Clipp^ haven't.
Why? They don't win. This past weekend, I
heard a national radio talk show host boast to all of his listeners he was a "Yankee hater." He then continued to explain how bad of a decision it was for New York to acquire second baseman Chuck Knoblauch from the Minnesota Twins for four minor league prospects and cash.
It was an obvious opinion he stated as fact. But, he justified it being a bad trade for the sole reason he "hates" the Yankees.
That is what the media does with the Cowboys on a daily basis.
Example No-. 1. Much is made season after season about
Jones going down on the field at the end of the Dallas games.
How do you know he is there? Because the
networks always show him. Did you know it is a tradition for Denver
Broncos owner Pat Bowlen to head to his team's sideline with five minutes left in every game?
Is there something M^ong with the owner going to his sidelines at the end of a game to watch his team.
No. But, in Jones' case there seems to be. Example No. 2. In the past 12 months, how many Dallas
Cowboy players have been in trouble with the law or have been issued a suspension.
Zero. Michael Irvin's past is brought up on a daily
basis. Is it just me or did his now infamous motel room act occur during the same off-season that Brett Favrfi^pent time in a drug rehabilitation clinic?
Forgot above Favre, didn't you? Or, at least the media let you forget about him.
And, example No. 3**""^ In a day and age when sports stars are
considered to be self-centered and don't worry about their respective teams, Aikman has been just the opposite.
Last off-season, Aikman traveled across the
country to personally workout with the top five tight ends eligible for the draft.
Who better would you want to scout and work with a possible offensive draft pick than the team's starting quarterback — a three- time Super Bowl winner at that.
However, once again the critics came out on the Cowboys.
People asked, "Who's running the team?" and "Why does Aikman have so much power?"
For a winning team such asithe Dallas Cowboys, it isn't and will never, be a win-win situation. ^
There are millions of fans across the country that "hate" the Dallas Cowboys — and that doesn't exclude members of the media.
So the next time you hear a message regarding the Cowboys or any sports player or team for that matter, remember who the messenger is. "^
Looking at where they come from is usually morelnformative than what they have to say.

Valentine stories and poems for children
"I gave a hundred valentines. A hundred, did I say? I gave a thousand valentines one cold and wintry day ..." The poem is titled "Valentines," and the book, "Valentine's Day: Stories and Poems," edited by Caroline F. Bauer (1993, ages 4 and up), containsmany other poems, short stories, a recipe for chocolate candy, a bibliography of additional reading, and ways to say "I love you" in 12 different languages.
It is a silly, amusing, sweet, and engaging book which is sure to be a young poetry lover's delight.
In "Pete's Puddles," by Hannah Roche (1996, ages 3 to 6), it is raining outside so little Pete must play inside.
But, all is well because Sandra, his friend from down the street, comes over to paint with him.
Then Pete's mom decides to take them both shopping. On their way home, the rain stops and they decide it would be fun to visit a^ park to swing, play, and, of course, jump in every puddle they can find.
Back home, the day comes to a delicious conclusion with a big cup of yummy hot chocolate.
This little book, easy for small hands to hold, has a brief text with bright illustrations done in primary colors that will really appeal to little children eager to share books and experiences. Just make sure you have some hot chocolate ready when you share this story.
In "Winnie the Pooh's Valen- tine," by Bruce Talkington (1995, ages 3 to 7), Pooh Bear is busy decorating his home for a Valen- tine celebration when his friend, Roo, conies a-calling.
Roo is really worried. He wants to surprise his mom with a special valentine, but he doesn't know how to go about making one.
So, they put their heads to- gether and decide they need more heads. Enter Piglet, Tigger, Rab- bit, Gopher, and Eyeore to the rescue.
When the dust settles, a beau- tiful, but huge, boulder chiseled into the shape of a heart by Gopher, painted by Tigger, and inscribed by Roo is unveiled.
But this towering valentine does present a really large prob- lem. Never fear, Pooh and his

Boulder City Sailor visits Hong Kong ii| Oriental beauty, exotic sights,
massive crowds, towering build- ings, great night-life and excellent shopping opportunities mean one thing — Hong Kong.
These are some of the things that will come to mind when Boulder City's Randy W. Martin, 32, tells his family and friends about his visit to the Pearl of the Orient.
Navy Chief Petty Officer Mar- tin, the son of Marguerite Martin ofBoulder City, and his shipmates stationed aboard the guided mis- sile cruiser USS Lake Champlain, recently made a port visit to Hong Kong diuing a six-month tour.
For more than a century, Hong Kong has been a favorite stop for sailors on tours to the Western Pacific, Indian Ocean and Persian Gulf.
"During my visit I did a lot of shopping. Besides shopping, I in- dulged in many cultural activities
Randy W. Martin
like touring and eating various types of food. This was my sixth visit to Hong Kong and every time I've experienced something new," said Martin, a 1983 graduate of Boulder City High School.
He is a radar and navigation specialist on the Lake Champlain
where he uses radar in the tracking and identification of ships and aircraft.
For nearly 100 years. Hong Kong had been a British Crown Colony and U.S. warships made more than 60 port calls there annually. On July 1, the British handed over the South Pacific city to its new landlord. Communist China. Although Hong Kong is 40W under Communistnile, Mar-
tin was happy to find that the city's unique atmosphere, at least on the surface, was no different.
"In many ways, the people of Hong Kong are the same as us. Almost everywhere we went, we saw people with cellular tele- phones, dressed in suits and big on sports. Unlike the western cities, Hong Kong is built on small areas ofland, this gives the city its own unique beauty," Martin said.
Based in San Diego, Martin and the Lake Champlain are
currently enforcingU.N. sanctions against Iraq as part of Operation Southern Watch in the Arabian Gulf He feels it's important for the Navy to deploy ships Uke the Lake Champlain to the Middle East, especially when tensions with Iraq are high.
"As the wofld's strongest coun- try, it's important to make our presence known to everyone. De- ployments are a great opportimity to interact with different people

Callville boat ramp closed
Lake Mead boaters are advised the courtesy dock at the Callville Bay puljlic launch ramp will be out of the water for repairs until March 1, according to Lake Mead National Recreation Area Super- intendent Alan O'Neill.
"We regret the inconvenience to boaters in having to pull the dock for repairs," said O'Neill. "However, this dock was in need of major rehabilitation work, and we wanted to get that done before the main boating season."
Work on the dock will include rewelding on the frame as well as redecking. O'Neill indicated that the dock will be returned to the water as quickly as possible.

The sale helps girls develop leadership skills and practice re- sourcefulness and self-reliance, and it generates revenue for troops, Girl gcout councils and Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. to fund the Girl Scout program in the U.S.
"However it is the girls them- selves that are the primary beneficiaries of the cookie sale through what they learn and ex- perience by taking part in the sale and through the programs and services made possible by the revenue the sale generates," said public relations director Juergen Barbusca.
Girl Scouts have sold more than 1 billion boxes of cookies since they began organized sales in 1936. Iflaid end to end they would circle the globe over five times, or build a Cheops pyramid or a Great Wall.

Diet, vigilance may protect against prostate cancer
JJu. RT FACTS DR. ROBERT CROKE^FACC
The verdict isn't in, but many cases of prostate cancer might be prevented by taking some steps that are probably good for you anyway, says a Stanford Univer- sity urologist who specializes in this disease, the most common form of cancer to strike men.
"We need more studies, but preliminary evidence suggests that up to 75"/? of prostate cancer pases could be prevented by changes in life-style — particu- larly diet. Cutting out the fat may be the best way to prevent prostate cancer," said Dr. James Brooks, an assistant professor of urology who practices with UCSF Stanford Health Care.
"We've also seen studies indi- cating that natural substances in vegetables — including lycopene, the red pigment found in tomatoes, and selenium, an element found in garlic, grains and other plant foods — may help reduce prostate cancer," said Brooks.
For example, one study sug- gested that a dietary supplement of selenium (200 micrograms daily) can lower the risk of pros- tate cancer by 667f and may be effective against colon and lung cancer as well.
Selenium encourages the body to produce antioxidant enzymes that protect against cancer. An- tioxidants appear to ward off cancer by neutralizing unstable molecules that can damage the DNA of healthy cells. Beta Caro- tene, the substance that makes can'ots orange, is a direct source of antioxidants, and its role in preventing prostate cancer is also being explored. Brooks said.
Brooks himself is researching how the production of one an- tioxidant enzyme normally found in the prostate gets turned off in
people with prostate cancer. "If we can figure out how to
turn it back on or compensate for its disappearance, we may be able to find new ways to prevent or
. slow prostate cancer," Brooks said. While healthy eating habits
may reduce the risk of prostate cancer, regular screening is a proven way to keep prostate can- cer from going undetected.
Brooks recommends that all men over the age of 50 have a digital rectal exam by their doctors every year, along with a bipod test known as the PSA (prostate-spe- cific antigen) test. Men with a family history of prostate cancer
should start having both yearly exams starting at age 40, he said. So shouldAfrican Americans, who' are twice as likely to develop pros- tate cancer as whites or Asians he notes.
In most men, prostate cancer produces nos3Tnptoms in its early, most curable stages. In others, symptoms may include painful, difficult or frequent urination, blood in the urine,^ or persistent pain in the lower back, pelvis or upper thighs.
"These symptoms may also be a sign of a noncancerous urinary infection or other condition, but it's important to rule out prostate cancer if the symptoms persist," Brooks explains.
More than 80% of all prostate cancers are detected in men over the age of 60. In 1997, some 209,000 U.S. men were diagnosed with prostate cancer. The malady killedabout42,000 American men last year.
"When founded early and treated aggressively, prostate cancer can usually be cured — which means that regular check- ups can save lives," Brooks said. '
Cardiac rehabilitation makes strides In the 1950s, when
President Eisenhower had a heart attack, the standard treatment was rest, rest and more rest. He was kept in bed, not even allowed to turn over by himself, for a weiek and allowed outside on the sun deck of the hospital only after several more weeks of wheelchair existence.
His confinement would probably have been longer if his cardiologist had been other than Paul Dudley White, a pioneer in recognizing people could recover from heart problems and that their recovery would be helped by carefully chosen activity.
Since then, we've seen amazing strides in the recognition and treatment of heart attacks, resulting in much improved survival and much improved return to full activity.
We now have new drugs to restore blood flow to the heart and save muscle tissue, and other drugs to ease the burden of work on the heart and preserve muscle tissue. We also have surgical and angioplasty techniques to provide new blood flow to the
entire heart and provide stability for years into the future.
, While exercise programs are not quite as dramatic as some of these other treatments, they have contributed importantly to the improved outlook for patients with heart disease.
Research scientists have shown that proper- ly constructed programs increase numbers of people returning to fully active lives compared to the old ways of caring for patients.
Modern rehabilitation programs are holistic, including exercise at increasing grades of effort, education in risk factors and medications, and coaching in stress management, begin- ning in the coronary care unit or post operative recovery unit soon after the patient arrives.
Exercise starts with light calisthenics in bed and getting up on the day after arrival for patients who are doing well. On release, walking outdoors is encouraged. After several weeks, the patient is invited to participate in group exercise at the cardiac center. Sessions are usually one hour, three days per week, for 12 weeks.
The group includes four to eight people taking turns on treadmills, stationary bicycles, rowing machines and weights. Each spends eight or 10 minutes at a station; then changes places with a classmate at another station.
Patients are supervised on- site by nurses experienced in, coronary care and trained in ^» rehabilitation, who judge workloads for individual patients according to diagnosis and disability; monitor progress and adjust work as patients become conditioned and more capable. Some programs have an exercise physiologist on staff.
Managed by a physician, it requires a physician certified in advanced life support to be in the building while patients are exercising.
If exercising within three months or so of a heart attack or operation, patients wear radio transmitters sending EKG signals to a central monitoring station, allowing heart rate and rhythm to be read and enabling patients to stop immediately at trouble, allowing patients to push harder and seek faster progress than could be allowed
unsupervised. Also difficult to measure but
as mportant as exercise, is education, which comes from the staff, concerning exercise, diet, medications and recognition of warning signals. Stress is closely tied to hearts and blood vessels—programs can be effective in learning to handle stress more creatively and less destructively.
Education also takes place between patients. Newcomers enter classes with "old hands" in class for a few weeks or approaching graduation, who help newcomers learn about getting along with heart disease from experience, something professionals usually cannot do. Peer relations are invaluable and sometimes take an unusual twist. In one class, a member was smoking. They put pressure on him in a way that nurses and doctors could not, and he finally quit.
Cardiac rehabilitation programs are available at hospitals and some cardiology offices. Entry requires a doctor's referral. Most doctors are well aware of their value and are glad to make the referral.

Stewart Indian School lecture Phillip I. Earl
On Thursday, Feb. 19, the Nevada Historical Society will host the fourth lecture in its se- ries, "Nevada's Native Americans: A Living History and Culture," at the Reno Museum, 1650 N. Vir- ginia St., Reno.
Funded by the Nevada Hu- manities Committee, the state- based affyiate of the National Endowm^t for the Humanities; Eugene Hattori, staff archaeolo- gist with the Nevada State OflBce of Historic Preservation, will speak.
He will speak on "The Stewart Indian School: Archaeological Perspectives." Also speaking will be former students who will share memories and experiences. The program will begin at 7 p.m. and is free to the public. For more information, call 688-1191.
In 1977, archaeologists from the Nevada State Museum dis- covered a cache of refuse located near the school just south of Carson City. Initially, they be- lieved that this find represented the remains of a Native American camp established in 1890-91 by parents concerned over the fate of their children, some of whom had been abducted by school authori- ties to live and go to school at Stewart.
A subsequent investigation re- vealed, however, that the trash piles originated with students and staff. Hattori and anthropologist Mary Rusco conducted the ar- chaeological work and Edward Johnson and Warren D'Azevedo looked into the school's history and ethnography.
Functioningfrom 1890to 1980, the school operated as a govern- ment boarding facility for Native American children. When it opened, fewer than 8% of native^' children were enrolled in formal educational institutions.
In 1890, the U.S. government embarked upon a policy of as- similation, inducing native peoples to turn away from their own traditions andfmd a place in

Euro-American society. The stu- dents, many of them as young as 5 or 6, stayed until they were 18, living at the school and allowed to go home only during the summers.
Under school poUcies, they were required to speak English and were punished if caught using native languages. In these early years, Stewart operated on a semi- military basis, the students wearing blue uniforms, answer- ingreveille at6a.m. andmarching military-style to and from classes. Attendance at Christian church services three times a week was also mandatory.
Many students did not take to the restricted lifestyles and would get together in private to speak Paiute, Washoe and Shoshone. Others ran away ori were taken out of the school by their parents. Punishments ranged from scrub- bing walls and cleaning showers to being forced to carry heavy railroad ties around the grounds.
Girls were sometimes locked in the attic of their dormitory and both boys and girls were subject to corporad punishment with a strap.

Those who persisted in running aWay sometimes wound up with a ball and chain attached to the ankle.
As the years passed, new Bu- reau of Indian Affairs guidelines reduced the military orientation of the school, and academics were emphasized over vocational in- struction. The curriculum also changed to include instruction in the students' own native heritage.
Students who did well entered college and moved into the profes- sions. Many former students believe that they benefited from the vocational and academic training they received and feel very positive about the years spent at Stewart.
Others, especially those from the earlier years, recall mainly the punishments and hardships they had to endure, as well as the difficult separation from their
families and culture.
Hattori's lecture will focus upon the early history and lifeways of students and staff at Stewart, as reflected in archaeological re- mains. The former students will relate their experiences and the impact the school made on their lives. Stewart has many alumni in Northern Nevada and we can look forward to an informative discussion on the history and cul- tural significance of the school.
The fifth and final lecture in the series celebrating Nevada's Native American heritage will be given by Brian WaUace, chaurman of the Washoe Tribe of Nevada and California, at 7 p.m. Thurs- day, March 19, at the Reno Museum. He will speak on "The Washoe People and Their Rela- tionship to the Land."

Diet, vigilance may protect against prostate cancer
JJu. RT FACTS DR. ROBERT CROKE^FACC
The verdict isn't in, but many cases of prostate cancer might be prevented by taking some steps that are probably good for you anyway, says a Stanford Univer- sity urologist who specializes in this disease, the most common form of cancer to strike men.
"We need more studies, but preliminary evidence suggests that up to 75"/? of prostate cancer pases could be prevented by changes in life-style — particu- larly diet. Cutting out the fat may be the best way to prevent prostate cancer," said Dr. James Brooks, an assistant professor of urology who practices with UCSF Stanford Health Care.
"We've also seen studies indi- cating that natural substances in vegetables — including lycopene, the red pigment found in tomatoes, and selenium, an element found in garlic, grains and other plant foods — may help reduce prostate cancer," said Brooks.
For example, one study sug- gested that a dietary supplement of selenium (200 micrograms daily) can lower the risk of pros- tate cancer by 667f and may be effective against colon and lung cancer as well.
Selenium encourages the body to produce antioxidant enzymes that protect against cancer. An- tioxidants appear to ward off cancer by neutralizing unstable molecules that can damage the DNA of healthy cells. Beta Caro- tene, the substance that makes can'ots orange, is a direct source of antioxidants, and its role in preventing prostate cancer is also being explored. Brooks said.
Brooks himself is researching how the production of one an- tioxidant enzyme normally found in the prostate gets turned off in
people with prostate cancer. "If we can figure out how to
turn it back on or compensate for its disappearance, we may be able to find new ways to prevent or
. slow prostate cancer," Brooks said. While healthy eating habits
may reduce the risk of prostate cancer, regular screening is a proven way to keep prostate can- cer from going undetected.
Brooks recommends that all men over the age of 50 have a digital rectal exam by their doctors every year, along with a bipod test known as the PSA (prostate-spe- cific antigen) test. Men with a family history of prostate cancer
should start having both yearly exams starting at age 40, he said. So shouldAfrican Americans, who' are twice as likely to develop pros- tate cancer as whites or Asians he notes.
In most men, prostate cancer produces nos3Tnptoms in its early, most curable stages. In others, symptoms may include painful, difficult or frequent urination, blood in the urine,^ or persistent pain in the lower back, pelvis or upper thighs.
"These symptoms may also be a sign of a noncancerous urinary infection or other condition, but it's important to rule out prostate cancer if the symptoms persist," Brooks explains.
More than 80% of all prostate cancers are detected in men over the age of 60. In 1997, some 209,000 U.S. men were diagnosed with prostate cancer. The malady killedabout42,000 American men last year.
"When founded early and treated aggressively, prostate cancer can usually be cured — which means that regular check- ups can save lives," Brooks said. '
Cardiac rehabilitation makes strides In the 1950s, when
President Eisenhower had a heart attack, the standard treatment was rest, rest and more rest. He was kept in bed, not even allowed to turn over by himself, for a weiek and allowed outside on the sun deck of the hospital only after several more weeks of wheelchair existence.
His confinement would probably have been longer if his cardiologist had been other than Paul Dudley White, a pioneer in recognizing people could recover from heart problems and that their recovery would be helped by carefully chosen activity.
Since then, we've seen amazing strides in the recognition and treatment of heart attacks, resulting in much improved survival and much improved return to full activity.
We now have new drugs to restore blood flow to the heart and save muscle tissue, and other drugs to ease the burden of work on the heart and preserve muscle tissue. We also have surgical and angioplasty techniques to provide new blood flow to the
entire heart and provide stability for years into the future.
, While exercise programs are not quite as dramatic as some of these other treatments, they have contributed importantly to the improved outlook for patients with heart disease.
Research scientists have shown that proper- ly constructed programs increase numbers of people returning to fully active lives compared to the old ways of caring for patients.
Modern rehabilitation programs are holistic, including exercise at increasing grades of effort, education in risk factors and medications, and coaching in stress management, begin- ning in the coronary care unit or post operative recovery unit soon after the patient arrives.
Exercise starts with light calisthenics in bed and getting up on the day after arrival for patients who are doing well. On release, walking outdoors is encouraged. After several weeks, the patient is invited to participate in group exercise at the cardiac center. Sessions are usually one hour, three days per week, for 12 weeks.
The group includes four to eight people taking turns on treadmills, stationary bicycles, rowing machines and weights. Each spends eight or 10 minutes at a station; then changes places with a classmate at another station.
Patients are supervised on- site by nurses experienced in, coronary care and trained in ^» rehabilitation, who judge workloads for individual patients according to diagnosis and disability; monitor progress and adjust work as patients become conditioned and more capable. Some programs have an exercise physiologist on staff.
Managed by a physician, it requires a physician certified in advanced life support to be in the building while patients are exercising.
If exercising within three months or so of a heart attack or operation, patients wear radio transmitters sending EKG signals to a central monitoring station, allowing heart rate and rhythm to be read and enabling patients to stop immediately at trouble, allowing patients to push harder and seek faster progress than could be allowed

Horse Liniment Eases Arthritis Pain
OCALA. FL — An ingredient derived from hot peppers that decreases in- flammation in racehorse's Its, is now recognized as safe and ef>ective for human use. The ingredient! has been formulated into a product calUd ARTH- Rx" and comes in a strength designed for humans. Researchers am excited and say the formula can reliele arthri- tis pain for millions.
Developed by the Phillips (julf Cor- poration, ARTH-Rx is a brealthrough in the treatment of painful disorders ranging from minor aches andipains to more serious conditions such as arthri- tis, bursitis, rheumatism, tendonitis, backache and more.
Although the mechanism b) which ARTH-Rx works to relieve pain is not totally clear, scientists suggest that pain is relieved because ARTH-Rx intercepts the messenger substanct that sends pain signals to the brain.
Many distances can be found directly by measuring with a ruler or tape measure. However, some distances can not be found directly. For instance, it's not practical to determine the height of a mountain by dropping a tape measure from the highest peak. So what do we do?
You've got it, find in indirectly. How? We could try to use those special right triangles we found last time. Remember we said there was a relationship in their sides. Trigonometry means "triangle measurement' in Greek. That's why trig is Greek to so many people.
Confinirig our discussion of trigonometiy to special relationships that exist in right triangles, consider the right triangles shown in the diagram below.
c
A ^-'"'^ 1
F
^
" C E G 1
Since each of the triangles contain zA and a right angle, the triangles are all similar to one another by the Angle Angle Postulate. That means the sides are in proportion.
That means
RH _ D£ = Eli = til AC AE AG Al
This is called the tangent ratio.
The tangent (tan) of an acute angle of a right triangle is the ratio of the length of the lea opposite the acute angle to the length ofthe leg adjacent to the acute angle.
Let's visualize that definition, B --
c
Using that picture and definition, we would write the
tan A = opposite side ^ a_
adjacent side b
The easiest way I know to remember the trig ratios is by memorizing SOHCAHTOA.
The S stands for sine, O for opposite side, H for hypotenuse, C for cosine, A for adjacent side, and T for tangent.
I know this interests you, if you were to write all the possible ratios for the sides of a triangle, you would find there would be six. How many trig ratios do you think there are? That's right, there are six. So trigonoriietry is nothing more than the study of the ratios of right triangles. We just happen to give those ratios names; sine .cosine, tangent, cosecant, secant, and cotangent.
We'll only study sine (sin), cosine (cos), and tangent (tan) today.
Using SOHCAHTOA, the
and the
sin A =
cos A =
tan A =
opposite hypotenuse
adjacent hypotenuse
opposite adjacent
a_ c
b c
a_ b
By using right triangles,"we can now determine the sine, cosine, and tangent of angles. That, in tum, will allow us to find the sides of different triangles if we know an angle.
By knowing SOHCAHTOA, you will be able to remember the Sine is equal to Opposite over the Hypotenuse, the Cosine is equal to the Adjacent over the Hypotenuse, etc.

African- American history marked
"Freedom Through Economic Independence" is the theme for this year's celebration of African American History Month. The event, coordinated by the U.S. Small Business Administration, will be held from 10:30 am. to noon Thursday, Feb. 19, at the Las Vegas Library Theatre, 951 W. Lake Mead Blvd.
Speakers include Clark County Commission Chair- woman Yvonne Atkinson Gates, Las Vegas City Councilman, Gary Reese, and Ernest Foun- tain, president ofNew Ventures Capital Development Corpora- tion, fiach has helped the African-American community find economic opportunities in Las Vegas.
"There have b^n some tre- mendous accomplishments, but there is much more that can and should be done," said Foimtain, whose organization is hosting the event
Also on the program will be a dramatic interpretation of the Langston Hughes poem, "Th^ Negro Mother," performed by Janice Pinder and supported by a male chorus, and a song will be performed by Ricca Grace and Janae Riberio.
This is the third year the SBA has joined with Las Vegas, Clark County and Nevada to honor and recognize Nevada's African- Americans.
"By helping to observe Na- tional African-American history Month, the SBA hopes to in- crease awareness of opportunities for African- Americans," said program coordinator Lisa Hendley.
In 1997, the Las Vegas Dis- trict Office of the SBA guaranteed 14 loans for African- American business owners and entrepreneurs totaling $1.7 milUon. District Director John Scott saii, "We believe economic empowerment is the key to indi- vidual freedom, family strength and community development."
The SBA is dedicated to help- ing African-Americans participate in the American dream of small-business own- ership," he said.
The event is open to the pub- lic at no charge. The theater holds 290 people, but reserva- tions are encouraged to assure a seat. Anyone interested in at- tending may call Hendley, 388-6611, for reservations.

Nevada timeshare industry reports sales of $117 million Nevada timeshare sales1»eae<f~"1ndustry generated more than $l.;j
$177 million in 1996 as the statewide industry grew at an average rate of 66% per year, ac- cording to a study released last month by the American Resort Development Association (ARDA) and ARDA-Nevada, the statewide association of timeshare develop- ers.
In 1996, 9,300 interval weeks were sold in Nevada at an average price of $12,500 per week.
Nevada timeshare sales in 1996 represent an increase in total dol- lar volume of $19 million, or 19%, over 1993 sales, as recorded in an earlier statewide study. They also represent an increase of $22.3 million, or 24%, over 1992 sales of $94.7 million.
Average interval prices have risen from $10,700 per week in 1993, at a compounded rate of 5.3% per year, to $12,500 in 1996.
"As one of the world's most vi- brant and attractive timeshare resort destination markets, Ne- vada is critical to our industry,
jmd we £ire privileged to enjoy a mutually beneficial relationship with the state of Nevada," said ARDA President Cynthia Huheey.
Nevada timeshares contribute $1.2 billion
In 1996, the Nevada timeshare
billion in economic impacts in the state, including21,000jobs. More than $517 million of these impacts, including 10,400 jobs, were gen- erated directly by the industry at timeshare resorts, restaurants and casino.
"Nevada's rich and varied tourism attractions, coupled with our state's progressive develop- ment policies, have helped our industry to grow and flourish. This positive climate has permitted timeshare resorts, in turn, to cul- tivate an upscale, loyal visitor base and contribute economically through jobs, visitor spending, and taxes," said James W. Broughton, RRP, chairman of ARDA-Nevada and chairman and CEO of Las Vegas-based LEXES Enterprises, Inc.
Nevada timeshare owners stay longer and spend more money than visitors to the state overall. Owners and their guests spend a total of $121.3 million armually in Nevada and, in addition, bring a total of $198.4 million to spend on gaming.
The vast majority (89%) of owners gambled duringtheir most recent timeshare vacation, aver- aging 3.8 hours per day at this activity. The average gambling

Another cozy story for the very young is "IfYou Were My Bunny," by Kate McMullan (1996, ages 3 to 6).
In this beautifully crafted book, a mother is putting her young son to bed as she gently explains how she would love and care for him just the same if he was a bunny, a kitten, a bear, a duck, or a puppy.

Nevada timeshare industry reports sales of $117 million Nevada timeshare sales1»eae<f~"1ndustry generated more than $l.;j
$177 million in 1996 as the statewide industry grew at an average rate of 66% per year, ac- cording to a study released last month by the American Resort Development Association (ARDA) and ARDA-Nevada, the statewide association of timeshare develop- ers.
In 1996, 9,300 interval weeks were sold in Nevada at an average price of $12,500 per week.
Nevada timeshare sales in 1996 represent an increase in total dol- lar volume of $19 million, or 19%, over 1993 sales, as recorded in an earlier statewide study. They also represent an increase of $22.3 million, or 24%, over 1992 sales of $94.7 million.
Average interval prices have risen from $10,700 per week in 1993, at a compounded rate of 5.3% per year, to $12,500 in 1996.
"As one of the world's most vi- brant and attractive timeshare resort destination markets, Ne- vada is critical to our industry,
jmd we £ire privileged to enjoy a mutually beneficial relationship with the state of Nevada," said ARDA President Cynthia Huheey.
Nevada timeshares contribute $1.2 billion
In 1996, the Nevada timeshare
billion in economic impacts in the state, including21,000jobs. More than $517 million of these impacts, including 10,400 jobs, were gen- erated directly by the industry at timeshare resorts, restaurants and casino.
"Nevada's rich and varied tourism attractions, coupled with our state's progressive develop- ment policies, have helped our industry to grow and flourish. This positive climate has permitted timeshare resorts, in turn, to cul- tivate an upscale, loyal visitor base and contribute economically through jobs, visitor spending, and taxes," said James W. Broughton, RRP, chairman of ARDA-Nevada and chairman and CEO of Las Vegas-based LEXES Enterprises, Inc.
Nevada timeshare owners stay longer and spend more money than visitors to the state overall. Owners and their guests spend a total of $121.3 million armually in Nevada and, in addition, bring a total of $198.4 million to spend on gaming.
The vast majority (89%) of owners gambled duringtheir most recent timeshare vacation, aver- aging 3.8 hours per day at this activity. The average gambling

Prior to becoming the AGA's first chief executive on June 1, 1995, Fahrenkopf was a partner in the Washington, D.C. office of Hogan & Hartson, where he chaired the International Trade Practice Group.

The characters in the Himdred Acre Woods are as endearing as ever in this precious story.
Another cozy story for the very young is "IfYou Were My Bunny," by Kate McMullan (1996, ages 3 to 6).
In this beautifully crafted book, a mother is putting her young son to bed as she gently explains how she would love and care for him just the same if he was a bunny, a kitten, a bear, a duck, or a puppy.
This is a book to hold close to your heart. Happy Reading!

DEAR DEBBIE HOROSCOPE DEBORAH WHITE
Dear Debbie: My husband is bored with his job, hates aging and I'm afraid he's ripe for an affair. Sound familiar? Yep, he's going through his midlife crisis. - -
People seem to thinlt it's funny, but I'm scared to death. I've seen so many families and marriages destroyed by this, and I'm afraid I'm next. ""^^^
What can I do to help ease him through this difficult phase of life and not lose him in the process?
WORRIED WIFE Dear W.W.: Your husband needs something new to engage him.
That can be anything from taking up a new sport to running for political office.
Help him sort out his wish list of things he always wanted to do but never got around to. Then help him lay out a game plan. But be prepared that whatever "it" is will mean he's exposed to a whole new circle of people. I advise you to bathere. w
Dear Debbie: My parents we^iiever married«ndTOyifather took off before I was born. Now I'm in my 20s and I want to look for him, but
my mother is against it. She's afraid he's a bum, and I'll turn out like that. She says he may
even want nioney or for me to support him. I think he was a scared kid, and he may have straightened out. I
tliink it's worth it, and I'm planning on trying to find him through the Internet. But I don't want to hurt my mom.
What should I do? SEARCHING SON
Dear S.S.: I'm with your mom on the risks, but I certainly under- stand your longing to locate your father.
You can try to protect yourself Ifyou find him, make the contact in stages. Speak to him at length several times, gathering more informa- tion each time.
Write everything down. Then discuss what he told you about his life with your mother, and decide ifyou want to leave it at that or meet him.
He could be a total liar, of course, but that's the chance you take. Write to Dear Debbie, P.O. Box 4328, Chicago, 111. 60680.

I know whereof I speak be- causeJ recently made the mistake of trying to get away from it all and hopjDcd on a plane bound for San Diego. You guessed it. I soon discovered I'd arrived just in time to attend the festive California flu season.
I'd no sooner settled in my seat (which I'd scrubbed with a special antiseptic hanky) when I realized Typhoid Mary was seated directly behind me. Mary coughed, sneezed, snorted and snuffled. Her seat-mate leaned over and intro- duced himself:
"Hi! I'm Herb from Plains, New York. Try some of my medicine."
It turned out Herb's medicine was a liquid manufactured from the oil of a recently deceased halibut. Silence ensued while I assume Mary and Herb engaged in a few snorts of liquid fish.
In the meantime, it turned out Mary's twi n sister was seated next to me. Her symptoms were a little different. Her nose dripped and her face was the color of sea weed. Occasionally, she turned in my

Just in case any germs hap- pened to pass me by, I don't want you to forget the circulating^ys- tem was in fiiU action making certain they came back around for another try.
That evening, we went out to dinner at our favorite restaurant and that's when I made my next mistake. "So", I said to our wait- ers, "Did you all have a wontierful Christmas hohday?"
It turned out everyone, in- cludingthe cook, had been laid-low by the flu bug. (I think one of them was still in a weakened condition because I couldn't help notice his finger was slumped in the side of my soup bowl).
It was a relief to come home. I guess I don't need to tell you that we arrived just in time for the onset of the Las Vegas flu season.
LINDA BLACK
Weekly Tip: We've got a shift from super intellectual to compas- sionate and emotional. If you're in the arts, you're going to do better after the sun goes into Pisces.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Be watching for a financial opportu- nity. You could find a way to turn your money into lots more through the use of somebody else's.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Ifyou need a loan or scholarship, make your appUcations now. You'll be making all kinds of new friends soon. One of them, at least, could seem like a soul mate.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). You will perform briUiantly. The les- son you're learning has more to do with intuition than obedience. Not only to do you need to do what's required; you have to figure out what that is.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). It looks like you'd rather stay home in bed. Your enthusiasm starts to pick up, however. It's back to the old grind but you're lucky with just about everything.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). It looks like education goes easily, so get a report written. You'll be able to find the information you need. That may not be the case soon, so don't procrastinate.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). These are good days for taking care of financial matters, including gathering up money somebody else owes you. Study. Your concentration will be at its best.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Make a commitment to a loved one. Your workload increases. Youll also notice your chances for making money are improving. Focus on that theme.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Youll be in power, except for a few minor irritations coming from your home environment. You're strong but still frustrated, soon you'll start getting your own way.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). A team effort should pay off pretty well. Study the manual to fix something at home. You'll want to spend more time at home. You might be feeling hassled.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). This week starts out kind of rough, with orders barked from an older person. Things get better as the week goes along, as friends show upi to play.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Make a connection with a distant friend. You need the information and support. You should start noticing that it's possible for you to make a lot more money.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Your luck is definitely starting to improve. You'll notice that things get better. You start out stressed about money, but wind up more interested in where you're going to go.

DEAR DEBBIE HOROSCOPE DEBORAH WHITE
Dear Debbie: My husband is bored with his job, hates aging and I'm afraid he's ripe for an affair. Sound familiar? Yep, he's going through his midlife crisis. - -
People seem to thinlt it's funny, but I'm scared to death. I've seen so many families and marriages destroyed by this, and I'm afraid I'm next. ""^^^
What can I do to help ease him through this difficult phase of life and not lose him in the process?
WORRIED WIFE Dear W.W.: Your husband needs something new to engage him.
That can be anything from taking up a new sport to running for political office.
Help him sort out his wish list of things he always wanted to do but never got around to. Then help him lay out a game plan. But be prepared that whatever "it" is will mean he's exposed to a whole new circle of people. I advise you to bathere. w
Dear Debbie: My parents we^iiever married«ndTOyifather took off before I was born. Now I'm in my 20s and I want to look for him, but
my mother is against it. She's afraid he's a bum, and I'll turn out like that. She says he may
even want nioney or for me to support him. I think he was a scared kid, and he may have straightened out. I
tliink it's worth it, and I'm planning on trying to find him through the Internet. But I don't want to hurt my mom.
What should I do? SEARCHING SON
Dear S.S.: I'm with your mom on the risks, but I certainly under- stand your longing to locate your father.
You can try to protect yourself Ifyou find him, make the contact in stages. Speak to him at length several times, gathering more informa- tion each time.
Write everything down. Then discuss what he told you about his life with your mother, and decide ifyou want to leave it at that or meet him.
He could be a total liar, of course, but that's the chance you take. Write to Dear Debbie, P.O. Box 4328, Chicago, 111. 60680.

I'd no sooner settled in my seat (which I'd scrubbed with a special antiseptic hanky) when I realized Typhoid Mary was seated directly behind me. Mary coughed, sneezed, snorted and snuffled. Her seat-mate leaned over and intro- duced himself:
"Hi! I'm Herb from Plains, New York. Try some of my medicine."
It turned out Herb's medicine was a liquid manufactured from the oil of a recently deceased halibut. Silence ensued while I assume Mary and Herb engaged in a few snorts of liquid fish.
In the meantime, it turned out Mary's twi n sister was seated next to me. Her symptoms were a little different. Her nose dripped and her face was the color of sea weed. Occasionally, she turned in my

Just in case any germs hap- pened to pass me by, I don't want you to forget the circulating^ys- tem was in fiiU action making certain they came back around for another try.
That evening, we went out to dinner at our favorite restaurant and that's when I made my next mistake. "So", I said to our wait- ers, "Did you all have a wontierful Christmas hohday?"
It turned out everyone, in- cludingthe cook, had been laid-low by the flu bug. (I think one of them was still in a weakened condition because I couldn't help notice his finger was slumped in the side of my soup bowl).
It was a relief to come home. I guess I don't need to tell you that we arrived just in time for the onset of the Las Vegas flu season.
LINDA BLACK
Weekly Tip: We've got a shift from super intellectual to compas- sionate and emotional. If you're in the arts, you're going to do better after the sun goes into Pisces.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Be watching for a financial opportu- nity. You could find a way to turn your money into lots more through the use of somebody else's.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Ifyou need a loan or scholarship, make your appUcations now. You'll be making all kinds of new friends soon. One of them, at least, could seem like a soul mate.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). You will perform briUiantly. The les- son you're learning has more to do with intuition than obedience. Not only to do you need to do what's required; you have to figure out what that is.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). It looks like you'd rather stay home in bed. Your enthusiasm starts to pick up, however. It's back to the old grind but you're lucky with just about everything.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). It looks like education goes easily, so get a report written. You'll be able to find the information you need. That may not be the case soon, so don't procrastinate.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). These are good days for taking care of financial matters, including gathering up money somebody else owes you. Study. Your concentration will be at its best.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Make a commitment to a loved one. Your workload increases. Youll also notice your chances for making money are improving. Focus on that theme.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Youll be in power, except for a few minor irritations coming from your home environment. You're strong but still frustrated, soon you'll start getting your own way.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). A team effort should pay off pretty well. Study the manual to fix something at home. You'll want to spend more time at home. You might be feeling hassled.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). This week starts out kind of rough, with orders barked from an older person. Things get better as the week goes along, as friends show upi to play.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Make a connection with a distant friend. You need the information and support. You should start noticing that it's possible for you to make a lot more money.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Your luck is definitely starting to improve. You'll notice that things get better. You start out stressed about money, but wind up more interested in where you're going to go.
If You're Having a Birthday This Week: The first part of this year looks good for travel, but after that you're goi ng to have to get back down to business. Youll feel stuck at times, but persevere.
If you don't like free dis- cussion, you value your (pin- ion more than the tnith.
The beginning of certainty is doubt.
• • • Playing for safety can be
the most dangerous thing in the worid.
* • • Meeting: A place where
people talk about what they should be doing.
It is better to have one per- son working with you than three who work for you.

According to Nevada Power, non-cash contribu- tions provided by an appli- cant under Rule No. 9 are subject to income tax under the 1986 Federal Tax Reform
Act and are subject to a tax gross-up in accordance with the Nevada Administrative Code ("NAC"). Nevada Power states that a revised tariff Is necessary due to a change in the customer de- posit interest rate which is an input to the gross-up rate calculation.
The tariff filing is sub- mitted pursuant to Chapters 703 and 704 of the Nevada Revised Statutes ("NRS") and Nac and, in particular, NAC 704.6532.
The revLsed tariff is on file and available for public viewing at the offices of the Commission: 727 Fairview Drive. Carson City, Nevada 89710 ahd the Sawyer Buildlng,555 East Washing- ton Avenue, Suite 4500, Las Vegas, Nevada 89101.
Interested and affected persons may comment in writing and file appropriate Protests and/or Petitions for Leave to Intervene at either of the Commission's offices on or before Wednesday, February 25.1998.

TARIFF FILINt; A tariff filing, designated
as Docket No. 98-1025, has been filed with the Public Utilities Commission of Ne- vada, ("Commission") by .Nevada Power Company ("Nevada Power") for ap- proval of its Fourth Revised P.S.C.N. Sheet No. 80 in its Tariff No. 1-Bto increase the gross-up rates fordepreciable property used in the taxability of line exteasion calculations under Rule No. 9. Specifically, Nevada Power proposes to increase the gross-up rate from ..30730 to ..10770. According to Nevada Power, non-cash contribu- tions provided by an appli- cant under Rule No. 9 are subject to income tax under the 1986 Federal Tax Reform
Act and are subject to a tax gross-up in accordance with the Nevada Administrative Code ("NAC"). Nevada Power states that a revised tariff Is necessary due to a change in the customer de- posit interest rate which is an input to the gross-up rate calculation.
The tariff filing is sub- mitted pursuant to Chapters 703 and 704 of the Nevada Revised Statutes ("NRS") and Nac and, in particular, NAC 704.6532.

Business limitations Panel approves plan to rennove sonne businesses fronn the downtown area D.B. Marciniak News Staff
Rob Weidenfeld/News Staff
SIDEWALK CHALK—Shellie Logan and her daughter, 6-year-old Jessica, decorate the sidewalk in front of Fox Ridge Park with
sidewalk chalk on Thursday. Rains this weekend, however, washed away the artwork.
The Henderson Redevelop- ment Agency took another stride forward with redevelopment plans as Planning Commission- ers approved codes which allow for only certain types of desired businesses.
The revision to the zoning amendment was approved 6-0, with Commissioner JoAnn Huffaker absent.
"It's going to be gradual, but the plan is in place and it should be a citizen-friendly process," Assistant City Attorney Liza Conroy said.
Conroy explained to planners that a proposal to change zoning on downtown streets and Boul- der Highway is the Redevelopment Agency's first step toward exercising its au- thority.
When the city set the bound- aries for the redevelopment area, the Redevelopment Agency was authorized to shape the redevel- opment area. A code revision limiting the variety of businesses
is the agency's first step toward the downtown becoming a thriv- ing redevelopment area, Conroy said.
Amendment of the city's zon- ing codes in the area will restrict businesses such as bail bond brokers, animal, automobile, funeral and pawn businesses and swap meets. While the code sets to vacate bail bond brokers from the area within five years, other businesses will be allowed to operate until they choose to relo- cate.
Under the codes, additional undesired businesses seeking a location in the redevelopment area will not be allowed.
Several planners expressed caution about not allowing busi- ness owners to locate in the redevelopment area. Planner Dale Lay said as long as the city assured to help relocate existing business owners which are af- fected by the code change, such as Staz's Nevada Indian Motor- ^'S'wswss

Two teens sentenced in murder Sharon Jackson News Staff Writer
Two teenage girls were sentenced in Judge Don Chairez's courtroom Wednes- day for the murder of a Henderson man on Feb. 28, 1996.
Both girls took a plea bargain in this case to avoid a 40-year minimum prison sentence.
Tracy Rutherford, the step-sister of the victim, Michael O' Rourke, was sentenced to life with the possibility of parole after 15 years.
Rutherford, 18, was charged with sec- ond-degree murder and robbery.
Tiffany Robbins, 17, cried throughout the entixe sentencing. She was charged with second-degree murder and will be eligible for parole after 10 years.
O'Rourke, 19, was strangled with an apparatus used to wire cable television at 348 Keating.
Police believe the killing happened some- time between 3:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. and the motive for the crime was robbery.
Police said Rutherford and Robbins did not physically kill O' Rourke themselves but took part in the murder plot.
Christopher Kyriacou, the man police believe strangled O'Rourke, pleaded guilty to first-degree murder in Chairez's court- room Oct. 30, also under a plea bargain agreement.
He was sentenced to life in prison for murder, 40 to 180 months for robbery, and 26 to 120 months for conspiracy Dec. 18.

And at last Thursday's annual awards banquet at the Wildhorse Country Club, the Boys and Girls Club honored Kish in a way no one else has been recognized.
It was announced that from now on, the club's facility at 401 Drake St. will be known as the John Kish Boys and Girls Club of Henderson.
"It means an awful, awful lot," said Kish, owner of the Skyline Casino, about the honor. "I was completely flabbergasted, elated, honored. And any other word with that kind of meaning."
For the club's board, the decision to name the facility after Kish was an easy one.
•^ear in and year out, for the past 18 years, through ups and downs, he's been one of the top donors — if not the top donor — to the club," said Clyde Caldwell, executive director of the club. "Every time we've had to raise money, he's been there to carry us.
"We can always count on him."
Kish, a board member of the Henderson Boys and Girls Club, is happy to be the one Caldwell and others turn to.
"Whatever Clyde asks of me, I'll try to do. I don't have short hands in deep pockets when it comes to the club," Kish said.
His reason is simple: the Boys and Girls Club of Henderson is here to serve the youth.
"I really appreciate what I the club| has done for the community. Clyde's really been an asset to this community," Kish said. "The youth need something to do — they're high energy. The programs the club has put together are great and they're always improving."
So now that Kish has had the ultimate honor of having the facility named for him, do you think he might slow down on hi^ charity work for the club?
Think again. "As long as I'm around — and perhaps after that — I'm going to give to
the club," he said.
