Don't worry about epileptic friend, it's not catching Question: My daughter's friend has epilepsy. I get nervous when she comes to our house for a sleer.over. · What exactly is ep1lepsy and why does this child have it? Can my daughter catch it? Answer: Epilepsy is also called a seizure disorder. A seizure occurs when the brain's electrical system malfunctions,' causing an abnormal firing of the brain cells. This firing may cause muscle contractions over the. entire body and unconsciousness or · staring. Seizures last for a couple of minutes and are usually followed by sleepiness or mild confusion. Epilepsy affects about 3 million people in the United States. Males are more likely tha·n females to have epilepsy as are AfricanAmericans . Around the' world, about 60 million people have epilepsy. It can start at any age, but the onset is more common under the age of 2. and over 65 : Recent trends show a decline in the seizure rates in children and an increase in the rates of elderly. rn about 70 percent of all cases no cause of the of epilepsy can be determine. We do know, however, that certain medical condi" tions as well as family history can increase the risk of developing epilepsy. · Seizures are cla~sified in three ways.

AP MILITARY WRITER WASHINGTON A Navy ,missile soaring 130 miles above the Pacific smashed a dying and potentially deadly U.S. spy satellite Wednesday and probably .destroyed a tank carrying 1;000 pounds of toxic fuel, officials said. Officials had expressed cautious optimism that the missile would hit the satellite, which was the size of a school bus. But ·they were less certain of hitting the smaller, more problematic fuel tank, whose contents posed what Bush administration officials deemed a potential 'health hazard to humans if it lan.ded intact. In a statement announcing that the Navy missile struck the satellite, the Pentagon said, "Confirmation that the fuel tank has been frag • mented should be available within 24 hours." It made no· mention of early indications, but a defense official close to the situation said later that officials monitoring the collision saw what appeared to · be an explosion, indicating that the fuel tank was hit.

I get nervous when she comes to our house for a sleer.over. · What exactly is ep1lepsy and why does this child have it? Can my daughter catch it? Answer: Epilepsy is also called a seizure disorder. A seizure occurs when the brain's electrical system malfunctions,' causing an abnormal firing of the brain cells. This firing may cause muscle contractions over the. entire body and unconsciousness or · staring. Seizures last for a couple of minutes and are usually followed by sleepiness or mild confusion. Epilepsy affects about 3 million people in the United States. Males are more likely tha·n females to have epilepsy as are AfricanAmericans . Around the' world, about 60 million people have epilepsy. It can start at any age, but the onset is more common under the age of 2. and over 65 : Recent trends show a decline in the seizure rates in children and an increase in the rates of elderly. rn about 70 percent of all cases no cause of the of epilepsy can be determine.

AP MILITARY WRITER WASHINGTON A Navy ,missile soaring 130 miles above the Pacific smashed a dying and potentially deadly U.S. spy satellite Wednesday and probably .destroyed a tank carrying 1;000 pounds of toxic fuel, officials said. Officials had expressed cautious optimism that the missile would hit the satellite, which was the size of a school bus. But ·they were less certain of hitting the smaller, more problematic fuel tank, whose contents posed what Bush administration officials deemed a potential 'health hazard to humans if it lan.ded intact. In a statement announcing that the Navy missile struck the satellite, the Pentagon said, "Confirmation that the fuel tank has been frag • mented should be available within 24 hours." It made no· mention of early indications, but a defense official close to the situation said later that officials monitoring the collision saw what appeared to · be an explosion, indicating that the fuel tank was hit.

Penciled into the starting rotation at camp a year ago, Cleveland's No. I draft pick in 2004 spent most of the season in the minors and is now fighting for a roster spot. Instead of treating hi s rocky season as a negative, Sowers is trying to make the most of it. "Even though you don' t want to pitch bad, that was my best learning year I've ever had," he said. "I think if I'm beset with adversity again, I'll have a much better idea of how to handle it' or approach how to get out · of it." Sowers pitched poorly and couldn't recover.

"With most guys, it happens at so me point before he gets to the majors." Once Sowers, who relies on location and keepin g hitters off-balance, started pitching poorly, he lost his aggressiveness. "Instead of pitching to get hitters out, I was pitching not to get hit," Sowers said. Initially, the trip to · Buffalo, where he was 9-1 with a 1.39 ERA before getting the call to the majors in 2006, produced the same results he had with the Indians. He started 0-4 with the Bi sons before posting a 4-l mark with a 2.95 ERA over his final nine starts.

The 24-year-old is hoping to rebound from a disappointing 2007. Penciled into the starting rotation at camp a year ago, Cleveland's No. I draft pick in 2004 spent most of the season in the minors and is now fighting for a roster spot. Instead of treating hi s rocky season as a negative, Sowers is trying to make the most of it. "Even though you don' t want to pitch bad, that was my best learning year I've ever had," he said. "I think if I'm beset with adversity again, I'll have a much better idea of how to handle it' or approach how to get out · of it." Sowers pitched poorly and couldn't recover. He · was l-6 with a 6.93 ERA in 12 starts before being sent to Triple-A Buffalo on June I 0. Hi s only victory came when he held Kansas City to one run in seven innings on. May 24. The pitcher who won seven games and pitched two shutouts for the Indians the previous season after being called up in June, saw AP.pholo Cleveland Indians pitcher Jeremy Sowers throws during a Major League Baseball spring training workout Saturday in Winter Haven, Ra . his numbers and his psyche ral," Sowers said. "Good pitching breeds confidence take a beating. "It was a downward spi - and bad pitching breeds a lack of confidence." Willis, who pitched in the majors for parts of 12 seasons, said Sowers' stru ggles were not unusuaL "Sooner or later, every · pitcher goes through a stretch like that, but in his case, it didn' t happen to him until he was in the bi g leagues," Will is said. "With most guys, it happens at so me point before he gets to the majors." Once Sowers, who relies on location and keepin g hitters off-balance, started pitching poorly, he lost his aggressiveness. "Instead of pitching to get hitters out, I was pitching not to get hit," Sowers said. Initially, the trip to · Buffalo, where he was 9-1 with a 1.39 ERA before getting the call to the majors in 2006, produced the same results he had with the Indians. He started 0-4 with the Bi sons before posting a 4-l mark with a 2.95 ERA over his final nine starts. He was called up to pitch in a doubleheader in Seattle on Sept. 26 and threw five· shutout innings. " l was grateful to get that chance to come back ·and •' C LA 55 IF fED pitch in a game ," he said. · Sowers is battling two other left- handers, Cliff Lee and Aaron Laffey, for the No . 5 spot. "The decision of where Til be pitching is out of my hands," he said. "I want to show I'm the same pitcher who was successful a couple of years ago. I don't have ,a defined location of ·where I' m going to go. but that doesn' t change my approach of how I' m getting ready for the season."

This time, they failed to make a shot at the· end, setting up another heartache and their 12th loss in the last 13 games. "We certainly had our chances," coach Stan Heath said. "We had layups ad shots and possessions in the last minute. I thought we could cash ·in and get it. That's a tough break for us, two in a row."

"It seemed like we were going to pull it out, and it just didn't happen," Heath said. Jones had 16 points, leaving him 22 shy of the school scoring record ,for a freshman. Gransberry, a power forward who was the focal point of · Cincinnati's defense, had 17 rebounds but only seven points on 2of-10 shooting. Neither team led by more than seven points in a backand-forth game. Cincinnati won despite shooting 34 percent from the tield, inducting 7-of. 24 from behind the 3-point arc. Vaughn, who scored a career-low three points on !of~ 7 shooting against St. John' s, looked refreshed after the Bearcats' week off between games. He scored 14 in the first half, helping Cincinnaii· take a 27-24 lead at the break.
