CLEVELAND (AP) Tracy McGrady stopped himself. The Cavaliers certain! y · • couldn't contain him. Rookie LeBron James scored 16 points in his first game back from a sprained ankle, and Carlos Boozer had 23 points and 16 rebounds to help Cleveland withstand McGrady's shooting barrage for a 99-98 victory over the Orlando Magic on · Monday night. ·McGrady tied an NBA record with eight 3-pointers in the first half, but Orlando's star guard played just five minutes after halftime be.cause of a toe injury. , "There was no way to stop him," Cavs coach Paul Silas said. McGrady decided not to risk hurting his toe worse, and benched himself with 6:32 left in the third quarter. " I know myself," said McGrady, who scored 34 of his 36 points in the first half. " I made the decision myself. It's pretty disappointing. First, you have the LeBron-T. Mac matchup everyone is hyped to see. It was frustrating ." But although they didn't have McGrady, the Magic stayed with Cleveland in the second half and still had a chance to win it after Cavs forward Eric Williams missed two free throws with 7.5 seconds left. But Rod Strickland shot an airball just before the horn sounded. The Cavaliers, who went 21 while James was out with the injury, have won four of five and now have 16 victories -just one less than they ' had all last season. "This win shows how much we have grown up this season," said Boozer, selected the Eastern Conference's . . .• 4: 15 left put Orlando up 92-. 89, but Wagner sto le the bait from him and Kevin Ollie fed Boozer for a dunk as the Cavs took a 93-92 lead with 3:28 left. Howard 's two free throws put the Magic back on top, but Eric Williams dropped a floater in the lane and sank two free throws before the Cavs survived a frantic final minute when both teams missed ch<inces. McGrady's sharpshooting . tied him with Tim Thomas (2001 ), Michae l Rcdd ('02) , Ray Allen ('02) - all of the and Milwaukee Bucks Kobe Bryant ('03) of the Los Angeles Lakers for the most 3s in one half.

James, who missed three games with his injury, added. five rebounds and three assi sts in 30 minutes. But he sat the final 4:51 after forcing a couple shots. He didn't decide to play until just before tipoff. . " I thought I could make an impact by coming back, " James said. "I didn't want to chance it and come back too soon. But I was confident I could play." Dajuan Wagner scored a season-high 21 points and Zydruna( ll gauskas had II points and 12 rebounds for the Cavs, who had a season-low three turnovers. McGrady made eight 3pointers in. the first 24 minutes, tying an NBA record for the most 3s in a half. He didn't miss from beyond ·the arc until he misfired just before the halftime buzzer. However, he limped off the court midway through the third when he appeared to aggravate an injury that has been bothering him since a Jan . 21 game in Milwaukee. "Somehow, some way, my foot got stubbed," McGrady said. ''It hurt. I felt I couldn't go anymore." Before he left, Orlando's shooting star dropped shot after shot- and jaws.

No Eclipse category had more intrigue than' the 3year-old colt division~ · where voters had to weigh Funny Cide's emergence as cing's darling against Empire Maker's two wins in the three head-to-head meetings including at the Belmont, denying Funny Cide's shot at racing's first Triple Crown since 1978. In the end, Funny Cide's Kentucky. Derby and Preakness Stakes wins couldn't be ignored, and the gelding owned by Sackatoga Stable collected 150 of 247 votes cast. Empire Maker, the only 3-year-old with three Grade I wins last year, got 92 votes. Funny Cide beat Empire . Maker by l 3/4 lengths in the Kentucky Derby, avenging a half-length loss in a muddy Wood Memorial three weeks earlier. Empire Maker skipped the Preakness. and was well-rested five weeks later in the Belmont - beating Ten .Most Wanted by three-quarters of a length and · Funny Cide by five. The two won't meet again .

The Neil Howard-trained horse also won the older male Eclipse. Empire Maker's connections -jockey Jerry Bailey, trainer Bobby Frankel and owner-breeder Juddmonte Farms-· swept EClipse honors in those categories. Bailey became the first rider to win four straight jockey Eclipses, extending his record total to seven. Frankel also won his fourth straight Eclipse; only trainer Laz Barrera (1976-79) had previously done that. Juddmonte Farms won the Eclipse for top breeder for the third straight year, plus won outstanding owner honors for the first time since 1992. More than half of Juddmonte's 122 starters in 2003 finished in the top three, with earnings of more than $6.2 million. 2002 Horse of the Year Azeri, which won four of her five starts and pushed her career earnings to over $3 million, edged Sightseek in balloting for the older female Eclipse.

Haltbridled, who won all four of her starts and earned $849,400, won the Eclipse for 2-year-old fillies - · collecting all but one of the 248 votes cast. . The closest voting came in the 3-year-old fillies division, where the Nick Zito-trained Bird Town edged Six Perfections 96-94. Bird Town won the Acorn and Kentucky Oaks ; Six Perfections won the Breeders' Cup mile and earned $1,256.076, but went winless in her last three starts of the year.

AP SCIENCE WRITER PASADENA, Calif. - A NASA rover got its closestever look at bedrock on the surface of Mars on Tuesday, .and scientists were eager to . determine ·whether the layering could have been formed in water. The Opportunity rover spied the fine-scaled layering just days after it landed in a small crater on the far side of the planet from its twin, Spirit. On Tuesday. NASA unveiled a high-resoltttion photograph of the horizontally strip!!d and fractured slabs of oodrock. "Look at the wonderful layer cake-structure in there," said Steve Squyres. the mission's main scientist. as he excitedly narrated a slow pan of the black-ami-white image. "It's going to he fascinating beyond words to gel up close and personal with this thing ." The find is a significant one: Each roughly half-inch thick layer represents an event in the geologic history of the Red Planet that Opportunity should be able to reconstruct with its complement of cameras and scientific instruments. Scientists believe the layers were laid down billions of years ago, piling up either ·as · ash spewed by successive volcanic eruptions · or as sediments horne by wind or water. Some scientists believe the 18-inch-high band of layered rocks is cross-bedded in part, suggesting a sedimentary origin that would require the presence of water. If so, the rocks cou ld provide tangible evLdence that Mars once was a wetter place capable of sustaining life. Images taken from orbit already suggest vast amounts of water once !lowed across the surface of the planet. The slabs of bedrock rim a portion of the shallow depression near Where the six-wheeled .robot sits atop its lander. The Opportunity rover was in good shape after its week' CHICAGO (AP) .- Kraft Foods said Tuesday it 'will eliminate 6,000 jobs, or 6 percent of its work force, and close 20 plants worldwide after more than a year of disappointing sale s and earnings for the biggest U.S. food company. I ,300 salaried About positions · jn North America will be eliminated in the first quarter, with the remaining cuts occurring over the next three years. Kraft said. Kraft's brands include Oreo cookies, Jell-0 desserts and Oscar Mayer hot dogs. Sales have been particularly sluggish for end landing but had developed a small . 15-wan power loss that worried NASA . Engineers believe a heater in the shoulder of its robotic arm has been turning on unnecessarily when temperatures drop. Engineers continued to monitor the sitmition, unsure if it could harm the rover. "We' re very paranoid people," mission manager Jim Erickson said. The Spirit rover, 6,600 miles aiound the planet, continued to recover from computer problems that last week brought its science work to a halt. Engineers received additional data they hope will help ' them understand the problem. Opp01tunity should roll off its lander sometime in the next two weeks, This week it is scheduled to put to use its mini-thermal emissions spectrometer, <m instrument that measures infrared radiation, to reveal what minerals the rocks contaio. Together. the pair of 384pound rovers make up an $820 million mission to prospect for gerilogic evidence that Mars was once capable of suppo1ting life. (AP) A storm carrying the threat of heavy snow for the Northeast coated a wide swath of the East Coast in ice Tuesday, stopping trains, closing schools and courts, and knocking out electricity to a quatter-million people.

"Hopefully. you Jearn from them and move on." Shuiined by Japanese baseball teams, the 23-yearold Tadano signed with the Indians last March. They think he can make their club this spring. Tadano gave few details about the video, which he · made after his sophomore year at Rikkyo University. · "I did participate in a video and I regret it very much," he said. " It was a one-time incident that showed bad judgment and will never be repeated. I was young, play· ing' baseball , and going to college and my teammates and I needed money. "Frankly. if I were more mature and had really thought about the implicatio11~ of what I did, it never would have happened." Through an interpreter. Tadano added : "I'm not gay. I'd like to clear that fact up right now." The Indians set up the press session after getting many requests from reporters to speak with Tadano. The team wanted to address the issue before spring training starts next month. Tadano's admission will cert;1inly draw attention to homosexuality in baseball , a sensitive issue that most players prefer to not even discuss. In 2002, All-Star catcher Mike Piazza felt the need to hold a news conference to profess his heterosex u<~lity after a newspaper gossip columnist suggested that one of the New York Mets' top players was gay. There are no openly gay players in the bi g leagues today. The same is true in the NFL, NHL and NBA. Tadano was one of Japan's top college pitchers and expected to be a high tirst-round pick in 2002. But after a Japanese tabloidpublishedphotosofhim in the video a month before the dmti. pro teams in Japan did not select him.
