Those who have looked at the book say it contains a crude recipe for anthrax- perhaps not much more sophisticated than some of the dozens of newspaper articles on the deadly disease that have appeared in · · the wake of recent attacks. But the book does seem to advocate, as well as describe, how certain weapons could be used. Some will call this censorship, but it is simply the exercise of choice and discretion at a privately organized event. The Crossroads of the West Gun Show is' mounted almost every weekend in some .city in the western United States, and its proprietor, Bob Templeton, said he has a reputation to · consider. "We don't tolerate any literature that's raci~t or advocates violent overthrow of the government," he told one reporter. That's a prerogative that any proprietor has the right to exercise.

(AP) -The month of March roared in like a snow lion, triggering bone-chilling temperatures, dangerous roads and more than 20 deaths along the nation's midsection. From Michigan to Texas, the weekend blast of snow and freezing rain crashed through the Plains, coating roadways and power lines on its way out of the Rockies. "It's unseasonably cold, but it's not out ·o f the ordinary to have one of thes~ arctic fronts moving through this time of year," said Steve Fa no, a National Weather Service meteo,rologist in Texas. In Michigan, the storm brought 17.6 inches of snow to the Marquette area by Sunday afternoon. Farther south, Grand Rapids collected a one-day March record of 13.6 inches on Saturday.

Fano said warmer air from the Gulf of 13 detainees on hunger strike Mexico was expected to replace the icy blast that dropped the temperatures at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport to 15 degrees, only five degrees above of the record set in 1943. The storm had whipped across northern Texas early Saturday with sleet; snow and freezing rain that contributed to more than 500 traffic accidents and about 100 canceled flights at Dallas-Fort Worth lnterna,tional Airport. The storm was blamed on three traffic deaths in Texas and one death from hypothermia. By Sunday, the death toll also included nine in Oklahoma, five in .

In all, the 10-year,$1.35 trillion tax cut passed by Congress and signed by President Bush last June made 441 tax law changes, according to H&R Block Inc. Most will · be gradually phased in over the decade,. but some important ones are already in effect. "The changes are some of the most signific:mt shifu in the tax code we've seen in many years;· said Mark A. Ernst, H&R Block president and chief executive officer. Even with the changes, the Internal Revenue Service is promising a smooth tax filing season through this year's deadline of midnight April 15. The IRS expects to get about 132 million individual tax returns tllis year, including a projected 45 million that will he filed electronically. Due to extra mailroom precautions resulting from last year's anthrax scare, IRS Commissioner Charles Rossotti says taxpayers should give computer e-filing a fresh look to reduce the chance for paperwork delays and to cut the agency's costs. "The Jess paper we get, the better off we're going to be," Rossotti said. Millions of taxpayers already rec1eived some benefit of the big tax cut in the form of rebate checks ofup to $600 that were mailed out over the summer and fall. The checks represented only a sampling of what's to come. Key changes affecting 2001 returns: . -The child tax credit for eligible families rises from $500 to $600. - Taxpayers who Gid not receive a ~;eb:ite check or got less than the full amount may be able to claim a credit for the money that will either reduce their tax bills or increase their refunds. - Alternative nlinimum tax exemptions rise by $4,000 for married couple filing jointly, $2,000 for individuals and heads of households. - Income tax rates, e)<cept the .15 percent rate, were reduced by one percentage point·on July 1, 2001. More is on tap for 2002. For starters, a new 10 percent income tax rate will apply to the first $6,000 earned by sirigle taxpayers, $10,000 for heads of households and $12,000 for married couples . filing jointly. For 2001, the rebate checks were chosen by Congress to deliver the benefit of this lower tax bracket. The upper income tax rate cuts remain the same until 2004, when they fall by another percentage point. People saving for retirement gain a number of illlportant benefits in 2002, beginning with a $1,000 increase in the maximum annual contribution to an individual retirement account and a $500 increase in limits for 401 (k)rype plans. These limits will continue. to rise through the decade. Those age 50 and up get spe~ial, higher "catch"up"limits permitting additional contributions in 2002 of $500 to an IRA and $1,000 to a 401(k). Besides boosting a taxpayer's savings, contributing to retirement plans on a pre-tax basis lowers taxable income in 2002, said John W Roth, an. attorney with CCH Inc., a leading tax.publishing firm. By adjusting W-4 forms now, he · said, a taxpayer can take advantage of those loWer taxes right away and boost take-home pay. WASHIN_GTON (AP) Think you can get away with not . paying income taxes? The Internal Revenue Service says you better think again. In a 25-page legal summary, the IRS attempts to debunk many of the most common legal arguments against paying taxes or filing returns. Some of these schemes are marketed by promoters for a fee, but taxpayers who sign up could be left holding the bag. "Some enrich themselves at the expense of their followers , who find they have. no legal ground to stand on when they follow this bad advice," an IRS statement says. . Federal courts can impose a penalty of up to $25,000 if a taxpayer's argument is deemed frivolous.

MONDAY'S OSU'sArden arrested for drunken driving COLUMBUS (AP) Ohio State redshirt freshman linebacker Redgie Arden was arrested in his hometown of Ironton for drunken driving. Argen was pulled over around 1:05 a.m. Saturday. He failed a field sobriety test and tested over the legal limit on a breath analysis, Ironton police Sgt. James Carey said Sunday. Arden, 20, was charged with one count of driving under the influence and was scheduled to appear Monday in Ironton Municipal Court. He was released Saturday after his parents posted ·a $1,000 bond, Carey said. Arden's mother, Sally Arden, declined to comment Sunday on her son's arrest. Steve Snapp, the Buckeyes' sport' information director, said it was too soon to speculate on the penalties Arden could face from Ohio State. Coach Jim Tressel was out of town and unavailable for comment, he said. Tressel suspended quarterback Steve Bellisari for one game last season after he was aHested for drunken driving. He was reinstated the following week, but never played in a 26-20 victory over Michigan. Bellisari played in the Outback Bowl on Jan. 1, then served a three-day jail sentence because of his arrest. The 6~foot-5, 240-pound Arden was redshirted as a freshman last season. He was The Associated Press' Division IV co-defensive player of the year as a senior at Ironton High School in 2000.

Ohio State beat Michigan 84-75 on Saturday night to clinch a share of the Big Ten regular-season title with at least two other teams. "It feels real good," Williams, a forward who had eight points and six rebounds, said of sharing the championship with Wisconsin and Indiana. "I don't care how many teams we share it with."

Illinois has a chance to make it four Big Ten champions when it plays at Minnesota on Sunday. The win also gave Ohio State its fourth straight 20-win season, matching the school record ~et from 1960-63. Buckeyes players and the fans who made the trip from Ohio took to the court and jumped up and down screaming "0-S-U! 0-S-U! as Michigan fans made their way to the exits. "This shows how great our fans are;· said Brown, who added eight assists and six rebounds. "It feels good that they were there to support us." The Wolverines (10-17, 5-11), who have lost six in a row and seven of eight, were led by Dommanic Ingerson with 21 points. Bernard Robinson Jr. had 20 points, and senior Chris Young, who was playing his final game at Crisler Arena, added 17. "They played tough. I give them credit, but we were the better team," Savovic said. The Buckeyes posted .their largest margin of victory in a Big Ten contest this season in a 69-4 7 rout of the Wolverines on Jan. 24, but Saturday's ·game was much more competitive.

"He was told three times and the official said he didn't hear it and . neither did the officials on either side of him. . "In these situations, we always rule in favor of the competitor and that's what we did today." Hunter said officials chose not to enforce the penalty on Marlin after that because bringing him back in or meting out another penalty would have ~een "too severe" an infraction.

VanHoose. But not on Saturday. Blackshear scored 44 points and tied an NCAA record by hitting 1 1 consecutive 3pointers as Marshall beat Akron 104-87. "He can shoot it,'' Akron coach Dan Hipsher said. "He can shoot it and he had a day." Blackshear missed all three of his shots inside the arc, but was 14-of-23 behind the line and hit his first 11 3-pointers. He also had seven rebounds and four assists. Blackshear's 14 3-pointers tied the MidAmerican Conference record set by Ohio's David Jamerson against Charleston during the 1989-90 season. Bla~kshear's 24 · 3-point attempts was a league record. The 44 points in regulation was a record for James A. Rhodes Arena as was Blackshear's 3-point total. Slay added 21 points and VanHoose had 15 for the Thundering Herd (14-14, 8-10). "I ' was worried about today,'' coach Greg White said. But Blackshear eased his mind. Blackshear's 11 consecutive 3-pointers tied the NCAA's single-record set by Gary Bossert o( Niagara in a 1987 game against Siena. Rashon Brown scored 22 points, Andy Hipsher had 21, Darryl Peierson 19 and David Falknor 13 for Akron (9-20, 5-13). The Division I record for 3-pointers in a game is held by another Marshall player, Keith Veney, who made 15 in a 1996 game against Morehead State. Marshall was not a member of the MAC at the time. Akron lost despite shooting 62 percent from the field and making 15 more free throws.

KANsAS 95, MISSOURI 92 Kansas' perfect league record- the first in the 6-year history of the Big 12 - carne with a bonus. The last of the regular-season wins came over Missouri. · Five of the previous six times the Jayhawks played at Missouri with a Top 5 ranking, they lost. In both 1997 and '98, Missouri handed them their only conference loss. On Sunday, No. 1 Kansas beat the Tigers and Jay hawks coach Roy Williams said the best thing about it was he won't have to answer questions about why he didn't win at Missouri. The real celebration was just a few minutes away. The Bearcats went 10-of-13 from the line in overtime, deciding one of the con~ ference's best head-to-head matchups of the season. Logan and Dajuan Wagner, the conference's top two scorers; went basket-for-basket most of the way before Memphis' freshman guard missed ~ tough shot with 20 seconds left in overtime, allowing Cincinnati to wrap it up. , Wagner was 11-of-28 from the fielil with 27 points. Logan went I 1-of-23 for . 30 points, the only dependable option in an offense that went 0-for-16 on 3-point attempts. "He's got. a lot' of poise on the court," Memphis coach John Calipari said. "His legs are moving fast, but his mind is moving slow. That's the sign of a great player. We do some thing. to slow him ·down and he still has a way of getting baskets." Logan tried but failed to hold back tears after the game. The crowd chanted his name and the players embraced at midcourt as they slid on those No. 7 caps. "It was a dream moment, I guess," Logan said. "I've seen it on TV a lot of times.'' The conference has seen it a lot seven times, to be exact. Every season, Cincinnati wean; the title of defending champion and the target that comes with it. Every season, it finds a way to keep t~e title that it cherishes most. Even though the conference tournament is in Cincinnati this week and the Bearcats will be favored to add that title, they've already clinched the one that really matters to them.

The b'utky guard jumped when 'he reached the free-throw line and tossed up a gentle, floating shot as Tigers desperately swatted for the ball. It caught the rim, took a soft bounce and hesitated before sliding through the net as the buzzer sounded. Center Donald Little ran around the court in a premature celebration as discouraged Memphis players stood in place and dropped their heads.

"There have been a few di!a!ters along the way, but at no point has this team quit,'' Amaker said. Michigan erased a 13-point Ohio State lead and pulled to 72-68 at 2:40 on a field goal by Robinson. But the Buckeyes pulled away with a layup and then a pair. of free throws by Terence Dials. "We cut it down to four a couple of times;' said Leon Jones, who also was playing his I.St regular-season game as a Wolverine. "We just didn't come up with I I • that big stop and the big shot that put us .over the top." With Michigan trailing 58-49, Robinson scored and was intentionally fouled by Brent Darby with less than 9 minutes remaining. Robinson made both free throws to make it 58-53. .

O'Brien said. "But through this, we lost a game at home against a team that just played terrific in Michigan State and we won two games on the road. I think that's pretty good.

A week later, at Rockingham, N.C., he was forced to follow Matt Kenseth across the finish line under a yellow flag after NASCAR chose not to throw a red flag, which would have allowed him at least a shot at the eventual winner. NASCAR had been heavily criticized for not being consistent in its decisions on when to use the red flag to insure a competitive finish. This time, Marlin was leading after 120 of 267 laps on the 1{mile oval when he slowed to make a scheduled pit stop under the green flag. As he drove his Chip Ganassi Racing Dodge toward the pit entrance, Jerry Nadeau banged into the rear of the No. 40 and sent it skidding sideways. Marlin· was able to recover and drive it into the pits, but NASCAR said he had exceeded the 45 mph pit road limit and announced he would be held for 15 seconds. Marlin finished a routine stop and immediately sped from the pits, retaining the lead after all the lead lap cars had made their stops. "I said, 'No, not again: 11 Marlif! said, referring to getting spun out. "Daytona was a heartbreaker.

"I thought we were going in right and, when we · left the pits, somebody came out in front of us and I gauged off them going out." · Asked if he could have overcome the . 15-second penalty, · Marlin grinned and said, "It · was early in the race. We could have probably been almost a lap down. I don't know; it wouldn't have helped." Tony Stewart, driving a Pontiac, had what appeared to be . the strongest car in the 43-car field throughout Sunday's race and was leading Marlin late in the race. , • When Shawna Robinson, the only woman in the lineup, bounced off the wall on lap 231, bringing out the fifth of six yellow flag., all the leaders made their final pit stops. Jeremy Mayfield and Rusty Wallace both took only two new tires and beat Marlin out' of the pits. · Stewart, who led four times for a race-high 76 laps, also took four tires. He came out of the pits in sixth and wasn't able to mount another challenge.

Nomo, who started Japan's export of its baseball playen to the United States in 1995, gave up three hits and an earned run in · three in~ing., and Dante Bichette homered twice as Los Angeles beat the Florida Marhns 9-8 Sunday. ''I'm not exactly satisfied," Nomo said through an interpreter. " I'd like to throw • more strikes and I feel like I'll start doing that as we progress through the spring." Nomo rejoined the Dodgers on Dec. 20, 3 1/2 years after the team traded him to the New York Mets. In between, he's played with the Milwaukee Brewers, Detroit Tigers and Boston Red Sox. In Jupiter, Fla:, Ankiel still is having trouble finding the strike zone. He allowed six runs in two inning. of St. Louis' 12-1 loss to Montreal. Ankiel walked the first two batters on rune pitches, allowed fi~tms and six hits, including a grand slam '!OLee Stevens in the first inning. "It was good to get out there and get it over with;' Ankiel said. "I just want to go out, be myself and have fun." . Ankiel, whose wildness sent him back to rookie ball last year, threw 29 strikes and 17 balls in his first outing of the year. ."I felt good although I was a little nervous and antsy being the first time out there;' Ankiel said. The 22-year-old was one of the team's top pitchers as a rookie in 2000 before unexplainable wildness set in during the playoffS. He was unable to recover in 2001 and spent most of the season in the rookie Appalachian League, where he seemed to get things squared away. He was 5-3 with a 1.33 ERA and just 18 walks in 87 1-3 inning., striking out 158. . Elsewhere, Ken Griffey Jr. made his spring debut for Cincinnati in the Reds' 5-4 win over Boston in· Sarasota, Fla.

"I'm feeling nothing other than what the first couple weeks of spring training bring." Tony Sanders' double in the ninth inning tied the score and Jesse Levis followed with the game-winning single for the Reds. In Phoenix, Ben Sheets threw three scoreless inning. and struckout four in an impressive spring training debut.

"A lot of people are surprised I'm here now,'' he said. "I can't wait to get out there. I'm a fast healer. If it keeps going like this, I could be able to play by the middle of March ." While the 29-year-old is . eager to start, manager Charlie Manuel has said he would prefer using Cabrera in the role that saw him play six .positions last year. He played 89 games in the three outfield spots: 28 at second base, 27 at third ·base and 14 at shortstop. He batted .26.1 with one homer, 38 RB!s and 10 steals. · "Jolbie is an important part of this team and it is great to see him back,'' Manuel said. " I'm not going to push him, but I know his versatility brings a lot to this ballclub. He helps us in a lot of areas." That's fine with Cabrera, too. "Just being back here is special," he said.
