Another Charleston carriage horse bolted Thursday, taking another group of people on a Mr. Toad's Wild Ride through the streets.
Jessica Buchanan was inside her house at 150 Tradd St. about 3:30 p.m. when she heard what sounded like galloping coming toward her house. Then she heard a loud thud, and the whole house shook.
She ran outside to see a carriage up against the side of her house. Two of the five passengers were on the ground.
She went back inside to get some wet towels. The horse was scratched up and a passenger received a bump on the leg, police said.
The carriage gouged the wood siding on the house and tore off two shutters.
Several neighbors stopped by to complain about the parade of carriages along Charleston's historic streets, and Buchanan agreed.
"The town is so crowded, and it's too hot," she said. "It's amazing that people don't get killed. I'm just glad nobody went through the window."
Police said the carriage belonged to Charleston Carriage Works. Employees at the office on Anson Street said nobody who could talk about the crash was around.
Police were trying to determine what caused the horse to bolt, spokesman Charles Francis said.
The horse ran down Limehouse Street, tried to turn the corner, and ran into the house on Tradd Street, he said. Gouge marks were visible in the street at the corner.
It was not immediately known how often carriage horses bolt in Charleston.
On April 22, a horse pulling a carriage took off running with three passengers in tow down Anson Street before crashing into the City Market. No one was injured, although video released by the police department shows the passengers clinging to their seats. It was not known what caused the horse to take off running.
In January 2008, a carriage horse bolted on South Battery. The horse took off running after the carriage hit a curb and overturned. Six of the 13 passengers were taken to hospitals for treatment and released the same day.
David Slade contributed to this report. Reach Dave Munday at 937-5553.
Homeowner Jessica Buchanan said she heard a horse galloping Thursday before feeling the her house shake at the impact.×

St. Joseph Mercy Oakland Named Blue Distinction Center+
For Quality In Knee And Hip Replacement And Spine Surgery
Designation from Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association Names Hospital
for Quality and Cost-Effective Care
Pontiac, Mich .—St. Joseph Mercy Oakland (SJMO), a member of the Saint Joseph Mercy Health System, has earned Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Michigan's (BCBS) Blue Distinction Center + designation for quality in the areas of knee and hip replacement and spine surgery.
The Blue Distinction Centers for Specialty Care® recognizes health care centers for their expertise and cost efficiency in delivering specialty care. Only those facilities that first meet Blue Distinction's nationally established, objective quality measures are considered for designation as Blue Distinction Centers+.
"We are pleased to be designated as a Blue Distinction Center+ for providing quality of care and patient safety in the areas of knee and hip replacement and spine surgery," said Jack Weiner, SJMO President and CEO. "This distinction, along with other awards and honors for orthopedic excellence, quality and safety, further recognizes that we are a high-performing hospital and a leader in these areas."
According to BCBS, research confirms that Blue Distinction Centers+ demonstrate better quality and improved outcomes for patients, with lower rates of complications and readmissions than their peers. Blue Distinction Centers+ also are more than 20 percent more cost-efficient. The program provides consumers with tools to help them make better informed health care decisions. These results also will enable employers, working with their local Blue Plans, to tailor benefits to meet their individual quality and cost objectives.
Other Saint Joseph Mercy Health System hospitals who have earned Blue Distinction Center or Blue Distinction Center+ designations include:
Chelsea Community Hospital: Blue Distinction Center for Knee and Hip Replacement
St. Joseph Mercy Ann Arbor: Blue Distinction Center+ for Spine Surgery
St. Mary Mercy Livonia: Blue Distinction Center+ for Knee and Hip Replacement
SJMO is one of about 460 health facilities nationally to receive the Blue Distinction Center+ designation.

EAST LIVERPOOL - A city school board member voiced a number of concerns about the on-going Patterson Field improvement project during Monday's meeting, saying the board's failure to use fiscal caution and discretion is a violation of the people's trust.
Member Richard Wolf expounded during the portion of meeting set aside for board member comments, saying that, although he voted against hiring the "inexperienced" architect, he has been "reluctantly acquiescent in all other aspects of this fiasco, and for that I apologize and regret it."
Wolf reiterated earlier concerns that a site analysis was not completed, resulting in an additional $168,000 for a geopier system which he said was implemented in violation of statutes that require sealed competitive bids be sought for any project over $25,000.
He called the failure of the general contractor to include electrical, plumbing, wiring and mechanical costs in the original bid "highly irregular," noting that
subsequent costs for each of those were accepted as quotes, again though sealed competitive bids were required.
"At no time have I seen any competitive sealed bids, although the cost of this project is in excess of $1.5 million and growing," Wolf complained, adding, "The original intent of this project was the renovation of the concrete stadium; however, irresponsible leadership has led this board to expend excess monies on new facilities while disregarding the needs of that stadium."
He offered other concerns, including not requiring that local people be hired for the project, the purchase of a new PA system at more than $12,000 without first determining what was wrong with the existing system or the cost of repair and failing to have a new survey conducted of the property involved.
Wolf also addressed the use of umbrellas by fans in the stadium, saying the athletic association had decided to ban them years ago to avoid confrontation between those blocking the view of others, draining on others and preventing hazardous situations.
According to Wolf, the ban has not been enforced and at a recent game, those with reserved seats were either compelled to move or confront those whose umbrellas were blocking their view.
"Anyone attending should be prepared to cope with these conditions without interfering with the view of those seated near them. Having had the same reserved seat for 45 years, I resent having to personally police this reasonable rule. To those who believe it is necessary to bring umbrellas to football games, I say, 'If you can afford an umbrella, you can afford a garbage bag.'"
Other board members offered no comment on his remarks.
Board member Scott Dieringer expressed his dismay that the golf team traveled to a recent match with their parents in personal cars, rather than in a school van.
As chairman of the athletic committee, Dieringer was advised by President Janice Martin to call a meeting to discuss the matter.
The board approved a recommendation to release $13,900 to complete the Thompson Park softball field project and for an agreement with East Liverpool City Hospital for biometric screening as required by state code.
The board convened in executive session for 45 minutes to discuss the investigation of complaints against a public employee, returning to take no action.


text: Hi all, I am just thinking if the 32GB mSATA SSD can be used for regular use such as having your OS, Windows 7 set up in it to enhance boot up periods and efficiency. I know Windows seven only requires about 20GB of area so it is more than enough for the SSD. Of course there will be a 2TB HDD for other applications as well as such. What does the caching actually do? Can anyone provide me an understanding on that?

Strong engines give good economy and performance, but the Seat Ibiza is starting to show its age. …
The Audi A3 is an outstanding car in almost every respect, and the Sportback version is a terrific choice as family transport.
The Audi A3 (and its five-door stablemate, the A3 Sportback) is the very definition of a well-rounded, well-priced premium family hatchback. It was the overall What Car? Car of the Year in 2013, and it's remained a consistent class winner in our awards every year since.
It's not hard to see why, either. Whether you choose three or five doors, you get strong refinement from a line-up of punchy, economical turbocharged engines, and a beautifully built interior that's practical enough for most everyday needs.
To cap it all, the A3's three-year running costs are lower than those of much of the mainstream opposition, helped by rock-solid resale values.
The Audi A3 is built on the same underpinnings as many other VW Group models, including the Volkswagen Golf and the Skoda Octavia, but it takes all their mechanical benefits, including those excellent engines, and adds a level of sophistication that few other models can match.
What's more, in the longer run, the Audi's superb resale values and low CO2 emissions mean it has competitive PCP and company car tax rates – not only compared with its traditional rival the BMW 1 Series, but also against everything from the Golf to the Ford Focus.
Read on over the next few pages to get our in depth impressions on the A3, along with our recommendations for the best trim level and engine to choose.

The lean fuel consumption from the 1.6 TDI is tempting, but it's not the most flexible engine. The 1.8 TFSI engine remains our favourite and, we think, worth the extra
For us, this is the best A3. It delivers all the power and kit you need, all at a reasonable price. The desirable badge and gorgeous cabin make it even more appealing.

Colin Wilson's absorbing novella The Return of the Lloigor (1974), running to 60 pages, is an expansion and revision of a short story of the same title that originally appeared in Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos (1969), edited by the writer August Derleth (1909-71) and published by Arkham House, the press founded in 1939 by Derleth and his fellow-writer Donald Wandrei (1908-87) to preserve the fiction of the American horror and fantasy writer H(oward) P(hilips) Lovecraft (1890-1937). As Bernice Murphy points out in her Literary Encyclopedia entry on Lovecraft, the term "Cthulhu Mythos" was only coined after Lovecraft's death, but the story that did most to create it was Lovecraft's "The Call of Cthulhu" (…

Is Hemsky worth a contract extension? Should the Oilers trade him?
Lets assume that the Oilers' Briantrust would like to resign Hemsky. I do, but do you? What should the contract be?
Here is the list of NHL players that make between 5.5 and 5.0 million dollars:
Horcoff (33 years old / $5.5 Million), Kessel (24/ $5.4), Getzlaf (26 / $5.325), Perry (26 / $5.325), Pominville (28 / $5.3), Carter (26 / $5.272), Hossa (32 / $5.275), Ryan (24 / $5.1), Rolston (38 / $5.06), Ribeiro (31 / $5), Gionta (32 / $5), Havlat (30 / $5), Kelser (27 / $5), Plekanec (28 / $5), and Bergeron (26 / $5). The ones that are crossed out either have a—really—long-term contract or are old. The rest have a five or six years left on their contract (except Bergeron: who has 3). Right below this is Alferdsson, Connolly, McDonald, and Umberger all between 4.5 and 5 million a season. People can argue about whether these players are an accurate reflection of Hemsky's hockey value, but I would say this is not a bad starting place.
There are not a lot of free agents on this list: virtually all of these players where either signed to these contracts by the team that drafted/develop them or where traded for them. This is the position that Hemsky is in with the Oilers (not exactly a home team discount but most of them did not taste the sugary waters of unrestricted free agency). What are the comparables if Hemsky does drink from this magical ocean of money? There is not as many comparisons that have the player going to free agency and getting more than $5.5 million as a winger: Gaborik (29 / $7.5),
Kovalchuk (28 / $6.66), Briere (34 / $6.5), Smyth (35 / $6.25), and Cammalleri (29 / $6).
Either way: The contract is basically set between 5 and 6.5 million dollars for about an average of 5 or years (but it could be a hell of a lot longer . . . NHL GMs are crazy).
Hemsky is 28 years old, and lets assume that Hemsky takes a deal which is $5.75 (the middle of the rough guidelines) and is 6 years long: or 34.5 million dollars in all. This means he will have a contract till he is 34 years old—perfect timing not get your last long-term deal. I would think there would be some kind of no-trade clause in there (since Hemsky will be committing to a rebuilding team and giving up the chance to go to free agency).
The structure of the contract makes a big difference. Is it front-end load like we have seen a bunch of contracts recently or a back end load contract like veterans used to sign? I think for buyout reasons (see a convoluted piece I did about that here) or for later trades, I believe the Oilers would want it to be front-end load. Maybe something like this:
Base Salary
$6 Million
$5 Million
$4 Million
$3.5 Million
$3 Million
$3 Million
$10 Million
$16 Million
$5 Million
$4 Million
$3.5 Million
$3 Million
$3 Million
This structure allows the Oilers to play roughly half of Hemsky's total contract out before the extension of Hall, Eberle, and Paarajvi kick in. Regardless of what we sign those three for in the future, we are not paying that much cash for them now. This from a hockey operations perspective could be very, very valuable.
While we are at signing extensions, why not target The Nuge's bunk'n mate on the road: Ryan Smyth. Offer him a four year extension at 2 million dollars a season; you would need to include a no-trade clause to convince him to sign it. But who cares? That would mean the Oilers are paying Smyth & Hemsky a total of $7.75 over the next four season, or $2.6 million less then they are this season. That is some savings to resign one of the kids (add in with one of Eberle's or Paajarvi's current salary it is about $4 million, or enough to get one of them signed to a decently long extension). It is addition through addition!

ELKINS - The Randolph County Development Authority is pleased by current economic development projects in the area, including upcoming construction on a Sheetz store on the Beverly Five-Lane as well as finalizing a rail trail extension project.
"It is my understanding the construction crew working on remodeling the Philippi (Sheetz) store will move into Elkins once they complete the Philippi store," Randolph County Development Authority Executive Director Robbie Morris said. "I have heard the end of June but it may be a month or so off."
The Sheetz will be located on Plantation Drive, parallel to the Plantation Plaza and down the hill from the Hampton Inn hotel.
The store will focus on fuel, convenience store products and made-to-order food, officials said.
"We are hoping (for the store) to be open by the end of the year, sometime in December," Morris added.
Another big project currently underway is the finalizing of the route of the rail trail connector to create a safe passageway from the current end of the Allegheny Highland Trail to downtown's Elkins Depot Welcome Center.
"We finalized the route and are now waiting on engineers to get all the documents necessary to get environmental approval," Morris said. "Once that is done we will put it out to bid in the first months of 2015 and hope to begin construction in spring of 2015."
Morris said the top goal with the rail-trail connector is safety, but noted it will also enhance the look of U.S. Route 219 coming into Elkins.
"Hopefully, we could plant red maple trees," Morris said. "There will be a big thoroughfare into town. It will allow people to walk to work, ride their bikes to work and feel safe doing so."
"It's going to be a great asset for Elkins and Randolph County - for recreational tourism, for workforce commuter patterns in the Highland Park area, for safe routes to school. Kids will have a safe walk path.
"Davis & Elkins College students will have access, too," Morris added. "They can come down the hill and get on the trail and ride all the way to Parsons."

While there are many college basketball players who would be considered "great" or "outstanding," dominant players are more rare.
In fact, this past college hoops season was a good example of how there were many excellent players, but not a truly dominant player in the mix.
Dominance is more than just a review of simple statistics. While a player's numbers are definitely a part of the equation, other factors such as team success and national award recognition also help determine how dominant a player really is.
The following is a list of the 20 most dominant college basketball players of all time.
Let's go!

Best Uses
I am one of the hostesses for our church. Each year we have a party near Valentine's Day to honor couples who have been married 50 years or more and adults who are 80 years old or more. We used this Photo Stand In for Fun pictures during the event. Lots of fun except for the fact that the openings for the heads were not really tall enough. Folks really had to bend over and for some that was uncomfortable. Otherwise it was a fun addition to our party.
Best Uses
Used for our Mad Hatter Tea Party fundraiser and in the lobby at our middle school play, Alice in Wonderland. A fun addition to the lobby activities and an additional photo op for kids and families. Just don't count on the stability of the stand. It is difficult for 2 adults to fit behind it without showing shoulders since the stand takes up most of the back portion in between the heads. All good fun for a low price. Love that you can personalize it.
Best Uses
Kids used this as a photo op during our dance. I paired it with two lighted columns and it was beautiful.

Nikita Nikitin and Todd Perry Added to Rivermen Roster
|Todd Perry has 105 games of AHL experience, all with the Toronto Marlies.
St. Louis Blues Executive Vice President and General Manager Doug Armstrong announced today the club assigned defenseman Nikita Nikitin (NICK–it–in) to the Blues' American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Peoria Rivermen. Rivermen General Manager Kevin McDonald has announced that the Rivermen have signed defenseman Todd Perry to a professional tryout contract and released Marc-Antoine Desnoyers from his PTO.
Nikitin, 24, has made 13 appearances with the Blues this season serving four penalty minutes. The 6'3, 217-pound defenseman has played in four games with Peoria recording a goal and a plus-1 rating. The Omsk, Russia native was originally drafted by St. Louis in the fifth round, 136th overall, of the 2004 NHL Entry Draft.
Perry, 24, joins the Rivermen from ECHL Reading where he has nine points (two goals, seven assist) and 44 penalty minutes in 23 games. The fourth-year pro has 105 games of AHL experience as a member of the Toronto Marlies for parts of the last three seasons. He spent the majority of last season with the Marlies, appearing in 27 games and registering three points (one goal, two assists).

Stocks surge as investors bet that corporate profits will strengthen

NEW YORK – Investors barreled into stocks for a second day as hopes grew that corporate profits will strengthen as the global economy recovers. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 132 points, bringing its two-day advance to 244, as major stock indicators rose more than 1 percent. Investors' latest show of confidence came as Australia became the first major country to raise interest rates since the onset of the financial crisis last year. The move signals that policymakers see the country's economy as strong enough to withstand higher borrowing costs. That touched off hopes that other economies may also be strengthening. Australia's decision also dented demand for the U.S. dollar, which, in turn, raised commodity prices. U.S. energy and materials stocks jumped as oil rose and gold reached a record high. The upbeat tone among investors is a departure from recent weeks when disappointing reports on unemployment, manufacturing and consumer sentiment gave stocks their first back-to-back weekly drops since July. Investors seem inclined right now to grab hold of any good news they hear, and their shifting sentiment has led to some mild volatility including the surge upward this week. The market's climb comes as some investors ratchet up their expectations for corporate earnings reports for the July-September quarter. Yum Brands Inc., parent of the Taco Bell, KFC and Pizza Hut chains, reported results after the closing bell that topped expectations. Aluminum producer Alcoa Inc. reports on Wednesday. Phil Orlando, chief equity market strategist at Federated Investors in New York, said investors are raising their expectations for overall earnings because few companies have issued profit warnings since the quarter's end. "We've gone through confessional season and we haven't had a peep from anyone," he said, referring to companies that would try to prepare investors for disappointment. "It's just crickets and tumbleweed throughout Wall Street because companies are going to beat." According to preliminary calculations, the Dow rose 131.50, or 1.4 percent, to 9,931.25 after rising 112 Monday. It was the Dow's biggest gain since Aug. 21 and leaves the index fewer than 300 points from the psychological benchmark of 10,000. The Standard & Poor's 500 index rose 14.26, or 1.4 percent, to 1,054.72, while the Nasdaq composite index rose 35.42, or 1.7 percent, to 2,103.57. Stocks jumped Monday on news that the U.S. service industry grew for the first time in a year. Upbeat comments about the nation's largest banks also drew buyers, as did a drop in the dollar.

With Safari 5, Apple finally caved and made the browser extensible. To turn on extensions, check 'Show Develop menu in menu bar' in Safari's Advanced preferences, and then check Develop > Enable Extensions.
Back in Safari's preferences, you'll see an 'Extensions' tab, for managing extensions and deciding whether updates should be installed automatically.
There's also a large on/off switch, which can be used to disable extensions entirely; this isn't usually necessary, but poorly written extensions cause instability in Safari, most likely because this feature is new and has some kinks that need ironing out.
Our ten favourite extensions of the many already available are listed below. Have we missed your favourite, or is there a Safari extension you'd like to see? If so, post in the comments!
1. User CSS (Mac/Windows)
Safari's advanced preferences enable you to assign a user style sheet and stop fonts from getting too small, but the User CSS extension enables you to assign styles on a per-domain basis—particularly handy if you find type unreadable on specific websites.
2. Better Source (Mac)
Great for developers and also anyone wanting to make use of User CSS, Better Source provides two toolbar buttons. One displays the current page's source code, with line numbers and syntax highlighting; the other displays generated source (after alterations made by Safari or scripts). Note: the script is separate to Safari's own View Source menu item.
3. View Style Sheets (Mac)
Another developer-oriented extension, View Style Sheets adds an option to the contextual menu which when selected lists a site's style sheets. The list comprises standard links, and so target CSS can be loaded into the current window or new tabs.
4. Tab Utilities (Mac/Windows)
Tab Utilities gives you two toolbar buttons that augment Safari's existing Window > Merge All Windows option. One closes duplicate tabs; the other groups tabs by using a single window for each domain. An option within the extension's preferences enables you to group 'orphan' tabs into a single window as well.
5. Maximize/Maximieren (Mac)
For a window-resizing extension, Maximize offers a good mix of options and flexibility. Buttons provide single-clicks to half-screen and full-screen, and a toolbar provides further resize settings, based on popular screen sizes (handy for web designers). Should you require a more directly configurable extension, try Resizer.
6. Ultimate Status Bar (Mac/Windows)
By far the best status-bar replacement, Ultimate Status Bar apes Google's 'on only when needed' equivalent, but adds further options. It can lengthen shortened URLs and provide file-size information for downloadable documents, and it also shows icons for links to non-http protocols (such as email and Skype).
7. NoMoreiTunes (Mac/Windows)
Apple annoyingly embeds scripts into iTunes Preview web pages, where it forces iTunes to open the item you're viewing. NoMoreiTunes simply turns that off, which means that, naturally, we think the developer deserves a knighthood/lottery win/diamond mouse mat.
8. Type-To-Navigate (Mac/Windows, excepting shortcuts)
Type-To-Navigate brings type-ahead navigation to Safari, enabling you to start typing to select a link; on Macs, you can also use the Command+G shortcut to select the next link.
9. Shortenz Linkz (Mac/Windows)
Several shortening-link extensions exist for Safari. Shortenz Linkz has the advantage of 12 selectable services and optional tweeting. In use, you can shorten links via the contextual menu or a toolbar button.
10. Instapaper Article Tools (Mac/Windows)
If you're a fan of Instapaper (as all sane people who read stuff online surely are), you might have chanced across the astonishingly good iPad app, with its useful sidebar controls. Instapaper Article Tools provides a similar toolbar (which floats), and Instapaper Greystyled, also by ElasticThreads, restyles Instapaper, again aping the iPad app.

A day that featured little negotiating between the NFL and its players erupted into an evening of heated rhetoric Thursday, all but erasing hopes for a deal before Friday night's deadline for a new collective bargaining agreement.
The league and players again appeared headed toward a lockout by the owners and decertification by the union, potentially endangering the NFL's offseason and 2011 season unless another deadline extension can be agreed to Friday. But the words last night were not of two sides close to coming together.

Reconstitution Of Lyophilized Proteins: Case Studies
10:50 Insights into the Reconstitution Behavior of Highly Concentrated Lyophilized Proteins
Bakul Bhatnagar, Ph.D., Principal Scientist, Formulation & Process Development, Pfizer, Inc.
While a short reconstitution time is a key desirable attribute of a lyophilized product, long reconstitution times are observed for highly concentrated lyophilized proteins. Empirical approaches involving alteration of formulation variables, processing variables, reconstitution diluent, and reconstitution method(s) have been employed to shorten reconstitution times in the lyophilization literature. Data from systematic studies designed to investigate the effect of formulation and processing variables on wetting and hydration during reconstitution will be presented.
11:20 Mitigating the Challenge of Slow Reconstitution of High Concentration Protein Formulations
Wenjin Cao, Ph.D., Senior Scientist, Amgen, Inc.
Long reconstitution times are typically experienced with a lyophilized high concentration protein drug product, which can limit practical usage and commercial marketability of the product. This talk discusses a systematic approach on achieving reasonable reconstitution times of a high concentration lyophilized protein drug product. Many strategies have been shown to provide nominal improvement in reconstitution times, such as adding wetting agents in the diluents, incorporating high annealing steps in the lyophilization cycle and reconstituting under vacuum. The reconstitution strategy of reduced diluent volume, however, has enabled significant decrease in reconstitution time (4-7 fold) of lyophilized high protein concentration formulations.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - The Jacksonville Jaguars are proving that with a good defense, any kind of offense will do.
Fred Taylor ran for a 1-yard touchdown with nine seconds left Sunday, and the Jaguars beat Tennessee 15-12 for their first victory ever at The Coliseum. Jacksonville is now 3-0 despite scoring 35 points this season. Of course, the Jaguars have allowed 28.
"Our defense is outstanding," Taylor said. "They keep us in it and give us a chance to win. I don't want to say we have the luxury of starting slow, because that just isn't how you want to play."
The Jaguars sacked Steve McNair three times and knocked him out in the fourth quarter with a bruised sternum. He watched the final minutes from the sideline as the Titans (1-2) lost their second straight, then was taken to a local hospital for more tests.
"I don't tell Steve not to run," Titans coach Jeff Fisher said. "He took this game over and gave us a chance to put a scoring drive together with the two runs. That's the risk he takes."
Del Rio said his Jaguars have plenty of room for improvement after pulling out a victory over Buffalo with no time left and recovering a fumble last week in the final minute to beat Denver.
"For us, a huge win. (I'm) proud of our guys for fighting the whole 60 minutes," Del Rio said.
Byron Leftwich also threw for a touchdown as the Jaguars won their first three games for the first time since 1998 and stayed alone atop the AFC South.
Milestone: Jacksonville wins its first game at The Coliseum.
Key Injury: Titans quarterback Steve McNair was knocked from the game in the fourth quarter with a bruised sternum.
Tennessee has dominated this series since 1999, winning nine of the previous 11 games and each of the first five games played in The Coliseum.
But the Jaguars said they didn't care about history with 36 players added since the end of the 2002 season. They held Tennessee and McNair, the 2003 co-MVP, to 249 yards. The Titans have now lost consecutive games at home after going 7-1 there in 2003.
"Honestly, right now we are not playing good football," Pro Bowl receiver Derrick Mason said. "Anybody that would say anything else would be lying to themselves."
McNair was hurt while trying to rally the Titans. He ran twice for 19 yards, including a 14-yard scramble on third-and-10, on a drive capped by Chris Brown's 26-yard TD run for a 12-7 lead with 5:37 to go.
But McNair overthrew Mason in the left corner of the end zone on a 2-point conversion attempt, then went straight to the sideline, where he pulled off his pads. Leftwich drove the Jaguars 59 yards in 13 plays, and Taylor capped it with a run to the right side.
Taylor, one of four Jaguars left from the 1999 season in which Tennessee beat them three times, ran back to the sideline with the ball under his arm.
"They flushed my Super Bowl opportunity down the drain, so I respect them to the utmost," Taylor said of the Titans. "I don't know how they feel about us, but it really isn't important."

NO3 radical studied by laser‐induced fluorescence96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.461861View Description Hide Description
The fluorescenceemission spectra of NO3 excited at 14 742, 15 109, 15 882, 16 053, and 16 555 cm−1 are reported. On the basis of fundamentals, overtones, and combination of five vibrational frequencies (368, 753, 1053, 1500, and 2010 cm−1 ) we assign 18 out of 20 observed bands. The fluorescence bands exhibit two different shapes, one shows a sharp spike overlapped with a broadband, and the other shows a broadband only. From the literature we obtain a potential‐energy surface that has D 3h symmetry with three identical shallow minima, each representative of a local C 2v structure and located with threefold symmetry around the central axis. Such a potential‐energy function can split degenerate D 3h vibrational modes, giving ''pseudorotations,'' as a structure with one long and two short bonds permutes around the three minima. On the time scale of molecular rotations, vibrational motions average over the three local C 2v structures to give D 3h structure and rotational spectra. This model qualitatively explains both the five fundamental frequencies observed by fluorescence and the definite D 3h properties of high‐resolution infrared spectra. We suggest that a molecular theoretical model with fine spatial resolution sees the miniwells and reports C 2v as minimum‐energy structure, but a model with less fine resolution overlooks the three shallow minima and reports the larger‐scale D 3h structure.
Vibrational spectra of penta‐atomic silicon–carbon clusters. I. Linear SiC4 in Ar at 10 K96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.462863View Description Hide Description
A Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) study has resulted in the first identification of a fundamental vibration of SiC4, the ν1, C■C stretching mode at 2080.1 cm−1. SiC4 was produced by trapping in Ar at 10 K the products of the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV)photolysis of silane (SiH4) and 1,3‐butadiene (C4H6) or the products from the evaporation of a mixture of Si and C powder. The vibrational assignment is confirmed by 13C ‐isotopic data for 20 isotopomers, which is in excellent agreement with the predictions of a b i n i t i o calculations.
CCl Rydberg states96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.461862View Description Hide Description
CCl radical has been observed from 280 to 410 nm by resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) spectroscopy. Transitions from the ground state to Rydberg states are observed in the range of 40 000–70 000 cm−1, and to the previously known A 2Δ state at 36 000 cm−1. The states display short vibrational progressions with spacings of 1100 cm−1, which is similar to the ion vibrational frequency. Vibrational progressions are observed in a number of Rydberg states and the origins are assigned by isotope shifts and hot band analysis. From two of these Rydberg states an ionization potential is estimated to be 8.83±0.01 eV.
Anomalous band shifts in the 14 μm infrared absorption spectra of rare gas–BF3 complexes96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.461863View Description Hide Description
High resolution infrared absorption spectra of rare gas (Rg)–BF3 van der Waals complexes are studied in the 14 μm region near the ν2 band of BF3monomer. Spectroscopic constants are determined for the 20Ne–11BF3, Ar–10,11BF3, 82–84,86Kr–11BF3, and 84Kr–10BF3 complexes. The observed redshifts from the monomer band origin correlate linearly with the rare gas polarizabilities. These shifts are about three times as large as those measured previously near the monomer ν3 band. This mode dependence of the shifts cannot be reproduced in a consistent manner with the instantaneous vibrational dipole–induced dipole interaction model, and indicates much greater enhancement of bonding energy by the excitation of ν2 vibration. The band shifts are discussed on the basis of electrostatic interaction between rare gas atom and point charges on BF3. The anomalous band shifts for the ν2 band are successfully accounted for by the interaction of vibrational dipole moment with the static induced dipole moment on the rare gas atom, which is parallel to the direction of vibrational motion. The isotope shifts observed for the Kr–BF3 complexes and the band shifts due to the modification of force field by vdW bonding are discussed with a linear triatomic molecular model.
Direct infrared and visible absorption spectroscopy of stoichiometric and nonstoichiometric clusters of indium phosphide96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.461864View Description Hide Description
Resonant two‐color and one‐color photodissociationspectroscopy is performed on neutral In x P y clusters with x+y=5 to 14 atoms. Absorption spectra of 29 different In x P y clusters are obtained for excitation energies between 0.84 and 1.84 eV. The absorption behavior is qualitatively similar for all of these clusters. An optical‐gap‐like absorption feature is observed at the blue end of the spectra, particularly for clusters which contain an even number of atoms. This feature shifts as a function of cluster size, but has an onset close to the band gap of bulk crystalline InP. Weaker absorptions are observed tailing to the red. A distinct absorption peak is also observed near the bulk InP band band gap for odd‐numbered clusters with a stoichiometry of In x+3P x . An empirical fitting of the low energy absorption tails reveals a correlation between the optical behaviors of these tiny clusters and amorphous semiconductors.
Zero electron kinetic energy spectroscopy of Au− 696(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.461865View Description Hide Description
Zero electron kinetic energy (ZEKE) spectroscopy and photodetachment cross section measurements have been carried out on Au− 6. The transition frequencies of ZEKE peaks and resonance peaks are nearly identical, consistent with the proposal that the excited negative ion of Au6 has a geometry quite similar to that of neutral Au6, and supporting the picture of the resonances as weakly bound ''surface states.'' From these studies the 0–0 transition frequency between Au− 6 and Au6 is measured to be 16 541±17 cm− 1, and the vibrational frequencies for the neutral Au6ground state, the Au− 6ground state, and the (Au− 6)* anion excited electronic state are 107, 73, and 107 cm− 1, respectively. Lastly, we observe evidence for a previously unreported resonance transition to the excited anion which we suggest is the 0–0 transition of Au− 6 to (Au− 6)*.
Ring mediated coupling of the internal motions of the amine and methyl groups in p‐methylaniline96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.461866View Description Hide Description
The jet‐cooled fluorescence excitation spectra of p‐toluidine (p‐methylaniline), aniline, aniline (ND2), p‐toluidine (ND2), and p‐fluoroaniline are presented. The spectra strongly suggest that the internal motions of the methyl and amine groups are coupled, the spectral evidence being a splitting of the amine inversion peak. A group theoretical treatment of the problem is presented using molecular symmetrygroup methods, however, this treatment appears to fail to properly predict selection rules for the methyl torsion. Possible reasons for this failure are discussed. The symmetry of the potential surface along the nonrigid coordinates is also discussed and a model which explains some of the unusual features of the spectra is presented.
Characterization of asymmetry transients in rotational coherence spectroscopy96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.461867View Description Hide Description
The characteristics and origin of a new type of rotational coherence effect—asymmetry transients—are considered. Asymmetry transients are of two types, which we call C‐type and A‐type, respectively. C‐type features are spaced by time intervals equal to 1/(4C). A‐type features are spaced by time intervals equal to 1/(4A). Both types of transients can provide information on rotational constants that is not available from other types of rotational coherenceeffects. We show that the C‐type transients arise from coherences between rotational eigenstates of the form J τ and (J+2)τ−2 (in the J τ notation) and that the A‐type ones arise from coherences between eigenstates J τ and (J+2)τ+2. The fact that such coherences produce asymmetry transients is shown to be a consequence of the limiting behavior of asymmetric top energy levels at high values of J. Experimental results in which asymmetry transients are present are reported for jet‐cooled perylene, tryptamine (D conformer), 1‐naphthol–water, and fluorene–benzene.
Luminescence and excitation spectroscopy of ruthenocene96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.461868View Description Hide Description
The luminescence and excitation spectra of the perdeuterated and the protonated ruthenocene have been carefully investigated. The electronic origins are at 21 459 cm−1 and at 21 390 cm−1 for the perdeuterated and protonated crystals, respectively. The two observed luminescence progressions in the metal‐ring stretch a ' 1 (D 5h notation) in the perdeuterated crystal are separated by 155 cm−1 compared to the 165–170 cm−1 reported for the protonated compound. The metal‐ring stretch frequency is reduced to 318 cm−1 in the perdeuterated crystal from the 333 cm−1 found for the protonated compound. In both crystals the observed doubling of the vibrational progression is due to a false origin based on a skeletal bending mode δ(ring‐Ru‐ring) which transforms as e 1 in D 5h . This mode is split by 7–8 cm−1 via the low site symmetry (C s ) in the crystal. The excitation spectrum of both compounds shows only a s i n g l e progression in the metal‐ring stretch. This frequency is reduced by 16% in the excited state for both the protonated and the perdeuterated crystal. Deuteration increases the lifetime from 127 μs to 990 μs at 1.5 K.
Electromodulation of fluorescence in a crystalline organic photoconductor (thionaphthenindole)96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.461869View Description Hide Description
The influence of electric fields on the fluorescence of polycrystalline layers of thionaphthenindole has been studied by an electromodulation technique that allows internal electric fields to be accounted for the effect. The in‐phase first harmonic (1ω) and out‐of‐phase second harmonic (2ω) of the fluorescence response to a modulating (sinusoidal) electric field of frequency ω reveal different electric‐field behavior, the 2ω response providing nearly internal field‐free signal suitable for verification of theoretical models.Fluorescence quenching with this signal has been observed and attributed to electric‐field modulation of the probability of charge separation within an excited state as a precursor. It was found that fluorescence quenching data could not be well explained using theoretical models formulated by Onsager, Poole–Frenkel, and Noolandi–Hong–Popovic for the charge separation via delocalized charge‐transferexcitons. The macrotrap model which reconciles both the experimental data and their physical interpretation is proposed. The model attributes the fluorescence quenching to carrier photogeneration by the field‐assisted thermal dissociation of a trapped charge‐transferexciton which has a higher located molecular singlet S 1 state as a precursor. An analysis of 1ω fluorescence signals provides information on the internal fields evaluated on ≂105 V/cm and attributed to spontaneous polarization effects in ordered crystalline layers of this polar compound, in accordance with conclusions drawn previously from electroabsorption data.
Final‐state interactions in the zero‐kinetic‐energy‐photoelectron spectrum of H296(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.461870View Description Hide Description
A rotationally resolved zero‐kinetic‐energy (ZEKE) photoelectron spectrum has been recorded for the lowest energy valence band of H2. A coherent laser‐based extreme ultraviolet (XUV) source, tuned from 128 200–128 900 cm−1 excites the molecules to the ionization limit, and near‐threshold electrons, in a narrow energy bandwidth (a few cm−1 ) just below the ionization limit, are detected by field ionization as a function of laser wavelength. The rotational components for the H 2 + X 2Σ+ g –H2 X 1Σ+ g (2–0) vibrational band show different relative intensities, compared to the conventional photoelectron spectrum and to the predictions of theoretical calculations. The perturbed intensities of the N +=0←J'=0 and the 0←2 rotational lines are shown to be attributable to an interaction of the pseudocontinuum of near‐threshold N +=0 n p J'=1 Rydberg states, with the interloper N +=2, 26p J'=1 state. The enhanced intensity of the 2←0 rotational line is attributable to a ''complex resonance'' involving the v +=3 R(0) 8p0 transition.
The microwave spectrum of the CH2N radical in the X̃ 2 B 2 ground electronic state96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.461871View Description Hide Description
The rotational spectral lines of the CH2N radical in the 2 u B d2dground electronic state are detected by using a source‐modulation microwave spectrometer. The radical is produced in a glow discharge plasma of a gaseous mixture of CH4 and N2. In total, 181 fine and hyperfine components of the rotational transitions with N=1–0 to N=5–4 are observed in the frequency region between 73 and 370 GHz. They are analyzed to obtain the molecular constants including hyperfineinteraction constants for the H and N nuclei. The molecular structure and the spin density of CH2N are determined from the obtained molecular constants.
The effect of the crystal environment on the metal–ligand interaction and the ligand field spectrum of CrF3− 696(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.461872View Description Hide Description
The octahedral CrF3− 6 cluster is studied in two different crystal environments. The available experimental data reveal that the cluster with the largest Cr–F bond distance is at the same time characterized by the largest value of the spectrochemical strength. This paradoxical fact has been shown to be due to the effect of the two different Madelung potentials. In K2NaCrF6, the central Cr ion is situated at a maximum of the Madelung potential; in CrF3, it is situated at a minimum. For the different crystal environments it has also been shown that the i n c r e a s e in covalency, that goes with the introduction of correlation, parallels the covalency that is present already at the Hartree–Fock level.
Depolarized dynamic light scattering studies of ortho‐terphenyl dynamics above T g96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.461873View Description Hide Description
Depolarized Rayleigh spectra of ortho‐terphenyl (OTP) were measured in the temperature range from T g to T g +190 K. Two samples prepared with and without ''clusters'' were used for the measurement. Four different Fabry–Perot interferometers covering the time range from about 0.5 ps to 100 ns were employed. Two relaxation modes were observed: a slow mode with all its characteristics of the α process, and a fast mode with a constant, temperature independent relaxation time of about 3 ps. The fast mode has not been reported heretofore. The intensity of the fast mode vanishes at about the Vogel–Fulcher–Tamman temperatureT 0. The relaxation times of these two processes are found to be identical for both OTP with and without clusters. The temperature dependence of the relaxation time of the α process is Arrhenius at high temperatures, but shows a Williams–Landel–Ferry (WLF) behavior in the range from T g to T g +80 K for both samples with and without the long‐range density fluctuations (i.e., cluster).
Fluorescence‐detected wave packet interferometry. II. Role of rotations and determination of the susceptibility96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.462837View Description Hide Description
The recently developed technique of time‐resolved spectroscopy with phase‐locked optical pulse pairs is further explored with additional experimental data and more detailed comparison to theory. This spectroscopic method is sensitive to the overall phase evolution of an optically prepared nuclear wave packet. The phase locking scheme, demonstrated for the B←X transition of gas phase molecular iodine, is extended through the use of in‐quadrature locked pulses and by examination of the dispersed fluorescence signal. The excited state population following the interaction with both pulses is detected as the resultant two‐field‐dependent fluorescence emission from the B state. The observed signals have periodically recurring features that result from rovibrational wave packet dynamics of the molecule on the excited state electronic potential energy curve. Quantum interferenceeffects cause the magnitude and sign of the periodic features to be strongly modulated. The two‐pulse phase‐locked interferograms are interpreted with first order time‐dependent perturbation theory. Excellent agreement is found between the experimental interferograms and those calculated from literature values of the parameters governing the electronic, vibrational and rotational structure of I2. A relationship between the phase‐locked interferograms and the time‐dependent linear susceptibility is obtained. The in‐phase and in‐quadrature phase‐locked interferograms together provide a complete record of the optical free induction decay. Thus by combining the in‐phase and in‐quadrature data, we obtain the contributions to both the absorptive and dispersive linear susceptibilities arising from transitions within the pulse spectrum.
Emission spectrum of the CN(B 2Σ+–X 2Σ+) tail band system: B 2Σ+∼4Π perturbations in the v B =9, 12, and 17 levels96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.462838View Description Hide Description
The CN(B 2Σ+–X 2Σ+) tail band system was observed in the reaction of argon metastable atoms with BrCN. The observed transitions in the 17‐14 and 17‐16 bands were analyzed in terms of the B 2Σ+,v=17∼A 2Πinv,v=34 and 4Π,v=p+11 perturbations, and the molecular constants for these levels and the interaction constants were determined. Intensity anomalies were also observed in the 9‐8, 9‐9, and 12‐12 bands. The quantum numbers of the total angular momentum,J, of the perturbed rotational levels of B 2Σ+ were assigned as (v B ,N;J)=(9,56;55.5) and (12,10;10.5). The vibrational quantum number was determined as p=0, and the crossing spin sublevels at the anomalies of v B =9 and 12 were determined as 4Π5/2 and 4Π1/2 by examination of the electronic part of the B 2Σ+∼4Π perturbation constant, H SO el, for the (v B ,v Π)=(14,6) and (17,11) perturbations estimated by use of the Rydberg–Klein–Rees (RKR) potentials for B 2Σ+ and 4Π.
Infrared spectroscopy of monolayer CH4 on NaCl(100)96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.462839View Description Hide Description
Polarized infrared spectra of CH4 adsorbed on NaCl(100) in the temperature range 4–47 K are reported. Coverage‐dependent data indicate that there is only one kind of adsorption site. The adsorbate layer is also seen to grow in the form of constant density islands. A partial degeneracy breaking into doublets is observed in both the ν3 and ν4 infrared‐active vibrations. Analysis of the ν4 doublet reveals one transition dipole component perpendicular to the (100) face of NaCl and the others in the plane of the face. Isotopic dilution experiments of CH4 in CD4 show that some of the ν4 doublet separation can be attributed to resonant or dynamic adsorbate–adsorbate interactions. The remaining splitting cannot be specifically assigned to any particular interaction but must involve static adsorbate–adsorbate coupling and surface–adsorbate interactions. A structural analysis consistent with the spectroscopic data and the symmetry of slab groups is developed. Two possible adsorbate geometries are considered. A unique determination of the adsorbate geometry will have to await other surface measurement techniques.
Population transfer by stimulated Raman scattering with delayed pulses using spectrally broad light96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.462840View Description Hide Description
The feasability of selective and complete population transfer between atomic or molecular levels by stimulated Raman scattering with delayed pulses involving spectrally broad light with characteristics typical for pulsed lasers is investigated. In extension of previous work, the effect on the transfer efficiency of phase fluctuations and of the detuning Δ R of the laser frequencies from the two‐photon resonance is analyzed. The minimum pulse energyP min required to achieve a transfer efficiency of nearly unity is derived analytically, with some restrictions imposed on the type of phase fluctuations. P min increases approximately proportional to the square of the bandwidth of the laser radiation and to the square of Δ R . The conclusions are confirmed by the results of extensive numerical calculations. These studies also reveal a high sensitivity of the transfer efficiency to the autocorrelation of the fluctuating light.
Jet spectroscopy of benzyl and benzyl‐α‐d 296(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.462815View Description Hide Description
Benzyl and benzyl‐α‐d 2 radicals are produced by the ArF laser (193 nm) photolysis of benzylchloride and benzylchloride‐α‐d 2, respectively, in a supersonic free jet. The spectroscopy of the D 1 1 2 A 2–D 0 1 2 B 1 transition of these radicals is studied by means of the laser induced fluorescence(LIF) method. LIF excitation spectra show well resolved but unusual vibrational structure. The assignments of vibronic bands have been carried out on the basis of dispersed spectra from the single vibronic level (SVL) and transition band types derived from rotational analysis of high resolution LIF excitation spectra. The intensity anomaly of the vibronic bands in the excitation spectra is interpreted as the breakdown of the accidental forbidden character of the D 1–D 0 and D 2–D 0 electronic transitions, whose mechanism will be discussed in terms of vibronic coupling.
How to grow large clusters from Si x D+ y ions in silane or disilane: Water them!96(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.462816View Description Hide Description
Growth of large cationic clusters is observed in real time for subsilane and subdisilane cations in the presence of silane/disilane–water mixtures. SiD+ 0–3 and Si2D+ 0–6 are created by electron impact in the trapped ion cell of a Fourier transformmass spectrometer and their sequential clusteringreactions with 5% water: 95% silane/disilane are monitored for up to 80 s at total pressures of 10− 7–10− 5 Torr. Formation of Si x D y O+ z clusters out to at least 450 amu in silane and 650 amu in disilane can be seen on the available experimental time scales. The early portion of the sequence leading to large clusters has been elucidated for silane. Amazingly, of the possible subsilane cations, only SiD+ reacts with silane and water to form increasingly larger cluster sizes. Reactions of the other subsilane cations, SiD+ 0,2–3, do not continue without apparent limit. Initial growth of SiD+ proceeds in a highly specific fashion involving the formation of two critical doorway ions, Si4D+ 7 followed by Si4D7O+.
The growth pattern then fans out to include numerous alternating and parallel reactions with both SiD4 and D2O. Several general features of the growth reactions are seen. Reactions with SiD4 are noticeably slower than reactions with D2O. Cluster growth by bimolecular reaction with SiD4 and D2O occurs by addition of SiD2 and addition of an oxygen atom, respectively, accompanied by elimination of D2. Loss of additional molecules of D2 sometimes occurs, particularly as clustering proceeds to large sizes. Cluster growth by termolecular attachment of SiD4 or D2O is also seen. This process results in the formation of Si x D y O+ z complexes with SiD4 and D2O that appear to serve as important intermediates which enhance cluster growth rates as the total pressure is increased. Sequential clustering without apparent limit is only observed for subsilane and subdisilane cations with silane and disilane when water is present. On this basis, it is proposed that low levels of water contamination can provide a key ingredient for the chemistry which leads to the formation of the hydrogenated silicon particles found ubiquitously in silane plasmas.

People love zinfandel
The worst wine snob you know will never lord it over you about his or her fancy zinfandel. It's because zinfandel gets no respect, which is a shame.
Zinfandel can be many things -- light and fruity in a rose "white" zinfandel, lush and juicy in "starter" red wines, elegant and superbly balanced in "claret" style and august, hearty and extra-full-bodied in blockbuster red wines.
Zins can taste like black raspberries, black cherries, boysenberries, cloves, and a dozen other fruits and spices. Another good thing about this is that zinfandel is usually a few bucks cheaper than most other reds.

1:17 – Great job by Diles of running with Dallas Clark on the INT. That is a very tough play to make against a TE of Clark's caliber.
1:15 – Gary Kubiak has done a great job of keeping the Colts off balance and running what is working rather than being a slave to a "run first" gameplan. I love how the Texans have made sure to get Andre Johnson involved early in the game. Look at the results. 17-10.
12:26 – Shocker of the year… J. Reeves is running with a WR but doesn't make a play on the ball. What a surprise.
12:18 – The first offensive play where D. Brown got pushed back into the backfield by Freeney is an example of a defensive player "getting his pads under" an offensive player. It's a simple matter of leverage.
12:14 – You saw an example of the way the Texans must play today to have a chance against the Colts offense. You can't sit back or Manning will destroy you. You must bring pressure against the run with LBs shooting the gaps aggressively and you must take chances in the secondary from time to time. Bend but don't break can work today.
11:44 – Best Matchup For Texans: Andre Johnson vs. Colts Secondary
Worst Matchup For Texans: Dallas Clark vs. Texans LBs or Safeties
11:21 – Sage is starting in place of Schaub. The good thing about this is that Indy has been watching film on Schaub from this year so they may not have done much prep work on Sage during the week. Sage gets rid of the ball pretty quickly so that will help with D. Brown at LT. Sage is also unafraid to take shots down the field so don't be surprised to see Andre Johnson or Andre Davis hit a big play or even two today.
Okay, I've got a sick momma at home so I'm staying home and watching the game from home. I'll be going with a live blog approach today so let me know if you're reading with a quick comment. I'll post what I'm seeing and what I'm thinking and you do the same. Also, I'll be talking college and pro football tonight on Ch. 39 with John Harris and Jorge Vargas at 9:30 PM on "Game On".

New York, NY, May 14, 1998
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) urged the Government
of Italy to bring the convicted mastermind of the 1985 Achille Lauro hijacking to justice.
Abu Abbas, convicted in absentia by an Italian court in 1986 of the hijacking and the
murder of American passenger Leon Klinghoffer, resurfaced in Gaza last week.
In a letter to Ambassador Ferdinando Salleo, Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director,
and Lisa and Ilsa Klinghoffer, daughters of Leon Klinghoffer, said, "It is important
that the government of Italy demonstrate that Mr. Abbas will not escape punishment for his
outrageous act. We urge the Government of Italy to pursue all means available to bring
this convicted terrorist to justice."
In October 1985 Palestinian terrorists hijacked the Italian registered Achille Lauro
cruise ship for three days with some 450 passengers on board. Mr. Abbas, at large since
1986, is believed to have been living in Iraq.
The ADL, through its Leon and Marilyn Klinghoffer Memorial Foundation and William and
Naomi Gorowitz Institute on terrorism and extremism, works to combat the threat of
terrorism through educational, political and legal means.
The Anti-Defamation League, founded in 1913, is the world's leading organization fighting anti-Semitism through programs and services that counteract hatred, prejudice and bigotry.
