The fugitives were captured by local enforcement officers later in the day in Rio Grande. . The safety of both law enforce• men! officers and the entire county was endangered by the early Thurs· day escape of felons Michael Wilson, 19, and Jonathan Eatmon, 27, both of Poinl Pleasant, Johnson said. • Wilson was indicted in September on three felony counts of breaking, and entering, one felony count or grand Iarceny, and misdemeanor petit . larceny. Eatmon, who had been extra· dited from Tennessee, is charged with felony offense grand larceny. "There is no excuse for the failure to immediately notify local law enforcement and the citizens of Mason County to beware of these escaped prisoners. The fact that unsecured weapons were stolen from the sheriff's office raises additional con· cerns regarding security," Johnson said in a release this morning. "These men should have been considered 'armed and dangerous'. • The public had an absolute right to know that these prisoners had escaped into the community. Concern . for the safety of \!thers should have taken precedence over the embarrass· menl ~uch an escape might have caused the stteriffs department," Johnson added. Wilson and Eatmon told a correc· lions officer around 2 a.m. Thursday that they needed to go clean the sher· ifl's office, according to Sheriff Troy "Shorty" Huffman. The corrections officer lei the men out of jail. The duo proceeded to the court· house annex office, a building sepa· rate from the jail, where they found keys in the secretary's office. to Cha~­ lie Stearns' office where ev1dence 1s kept, the sheriff said. The men drank alcohol and look four pistols before leaving, Huffman said. Johnson's statement said sheriffs department records show lhe escape was nol discovered until approxi· mately 6 a.m. She said that in addir lion to the handguns, cash was stoleO from the sheriffs office. . Emergency Services Director Chuck Blake said the 911 office was riot made aware of the escape until early Thursday afternoon.

The problem is, you have no Jaw." There's no question that the Soviet Umon, under communism, was also corrupt.

What's different now IS the level of ostentatious wealth accumulated by the oligarchs, m direct contrast to the RusSian populace that's seen roll, owing allegiance to gangs that are engage<! in every imaginable business. In a Western society, part of the check on such corruption, especially when 11 reaches into law enforcement, comes from an independent media. Once agam, u~fortunately, Russia does not have the advantage of this. Most of the media is owned by oligarchs who use television and newspapers to promote their own business interests and push the politicians they are backing -- politicians who act as puppets for them. Here and there are some courageous Russian journalists who buck the tide, but they then literally have reason to fear for their lives if they investigate cases of corruption too thoroughly.

The face of an affirmative action-less society By DEBORAH MATHIS Tribune Media Sarvlees WASHINGTON -- If you want to see the face of an affirmative action-less society, behold the U.S Supreme Court The Court has decided that 1t does npt want to sit down and talk with the NAACP, three '--------' black members of Congress or anyone else to answer why so few of the justices' clerks are black or female. Without an "affirmative action policy or a mechanism for monitoring it, an employer, school or contractor with a lousy record and no smoking gun has only to deny discrimination, a Ia Chief Justice Wilham Rehnquist, who answered the cunous w1th this simple declarallon. "Each of us is satisfied that no person is excluded from consideration for a clerkship because of race, religion, gender, nationality or for any other impermissible reason.", Whew! For a moment there, I thought there might be something foul afoot, given that the Supremes have hired 4281aw clerks in their years on the court and, of that number only about 7 are black and on Iy about 100 are women I'II adm,it, it crossed my mmd that maybe, just maybe, the justices haven't been looking too far and wide for folks to fill ihe precious clerkships which serve as veritable vouchers for those cushy, presllgious jobs m big Jaw firms down the road. I thought there m1ght be a rat in the process, I "agamst the state " The Federalist 65 gives the clearest explanatiOn of the Founders' intentiOns It declares that impeachment trials ought to probe "offenses which proceed from the misconduct of public men, or, in other words, from the abuse or violation of some public trust ... injuries done Immediately to the society itself." Ham1lton sidesteps this charactenzation. He says Clin ton's sworn test1mony about L'affaire Lewinsky 1sn't a high crime, but a " low" one-- even if the president perJured himself repeatedly. Why? Because the hes didn't interfere w1th the chief executive's performance of h1s constJtutJonal duties Still, the lawyer believes Congress ought to deliver some express1on of diSgust for the president's assorted malfeasances and malefactions So, he suggests a concurrent resoluhon, wh1ch the House Rules Manual defines as "a means of expressing ... principles, opmJons and purposes of the two Houses."

"This man was always getting some money from government and from (former Prime Minister Viktor) Chernomyrdin," explained a well· connected top academician at a staterun)nstitute. "When it came 11me to vote for the government budget, he would always come to Chernomyrdin -- and Chernomyrdin would give him something for his party, and for him personally. And then his party unammously voted for the budget, always. ' Primakov became the compromise candidate for prime mimster last September after the Duma twice reJected the once-fired Chemomyrdin for the post. · It is well-known here, and wJdel y reported, that Chernomyrdin's funding -- and ability to "help" others in the Duma and elsewhere -- has come from, the so-called "oligarchs," a wealthy busmess class that has sucked the country dry It is the oligarchs who have siphoned off enormous profits fram businesses, many of wh1ch have smce failed, and who supported Yeltsin m his successful 1996 bid for re-election.

The only clear exception to the rule of meaninglessness is the 1991 resolution in support of the Gulf War This brings us to the crucial part. Many members of Congress --i ncluding some Republicans -- war.t the option of "punishing" Clinton by drafting a blistering resolution of censure. They say thiS would give the presIdent a proper comeuppance by writing an unflattering page for a man notoriously preoccupied with h1s place in history. · The law gets in the way of this happy compromise, however, because Congress can't both censure and punISh the president.

Friday, December 11, 19_98 Eckersley retires from majors after 24 seasons By KAREN RUSSO BOSTON (AP) Dennos Eckersley, who appeared in more major league games than any pitcher, didn 't have the desire to stay in shape when ttie baseball season ended. What the 44-year-old pitcher didn't hear hos body telhng him became clear this week when the Red Sox rerused to offer him salary arbnration: It was tome to retire. · . After 24 years - ~nd 1,071 appearances- in the maJor leagues, Eckersley said on Thursday that he has thrown his last fastball. "To be honesl with you, some· body had to make the decosoon for me because I wouldn't have done ot," Eckersley said. holding back tears. " I would much rath..- have left like I've done today than to leave in the middle of the season or geuong booed out of the ballpark. I didn't want to taint mY career." Eckersley, who regularly runs on the offseason to keep in shape, saod the thought of retirement started . creepong into his mind after the playoffs. "People started saying that I could do it again, and I thought, 'Well, I guess,' but physically I did not want to keep it gomg," he said. "I just staned gearing·down. Usually I just keep running, but all of the sudden I didn't want to run anymore. That's what happens I guess, that's what happened to me." Eckersley's 24 seasons in the majors were really two careers: 13 years as a starter and then, after a baule with alcohol, a move to the bullpen for II years as one of the most dominatong relievers the game has ever seen. " It's hard to walk away," he said. " It 's been a major part of my life sonce I was 8 years old." The Eck poled up awards and memories: s,. All-Star appearances, the AL Most Valuable Player and Cy Young awards in 1992. theALcham- pionship series MVP in 1988. He pitched a no-hitter for Cleveland in 1977, sat in the dugout for the 1978 Yankees-Red Sox playoff, gave up Kirk Gibson's famous World Series home run in 1988 and closed games f~ the three Bash Brothers pennant wmners 1n Oakland. "! guess the favorite memones are some of the magic that happened iQ Oakland," said Eckersley, who was born and raised in the Bay area. "We had some magic that lasted for about five years." The right-hander, who spent seven years with the Red Sox before moving on to the Chicago Cubs, Oakland Athletics and St. Louis Cardinals, returned to the Red Sox last December intending to finish his career in Boston. He.. was a .20-game winner with the Rlil Sox in 1978, the year of that famous playoff game against the Yankees. "I told somebody that this (retum) was like the coming-out pany for me in '78," said Eckersley, who resides in Sudbury. "You're lucky to be in the big leagues, let alone play where you live. I was lucky to come back here." Eckersley trails only Lee Smith (478) and John Franco (397) on the "areer saves list The Eck. with his flowing hair and droopy mustache, broke into the major leagues on 1975 with the Cleveland Indians, and pitched for the Red Sox from 1978-84. He was 20-8 with a 2.99 ERA in '78. his best year as a starter, but his production diminished over the next six years. After going 6-11 with the Cubs in 1986, Eckersley was traded to the 'Athletics, who turned him into , a reliever and gave him a second career. "I'd be crazy saying I thought I'd do this," Eckersley said. "Twelve years ago. my whole life changed when I went into the bullpen. I was just trying to make it to the big leagues, I know how fonunate I was. You never think you're going to have a 24-year career. Nobody's that cocky." Eckersley's career rebounded after be quit drinking and joined an Alcoholics Anonymous program in January 1987. A year later, he had a major-lca:gue leading 4S saves. From 1988-1993, he averaged 43 saves per season. In 1990, he had 48 saves and a 0.63 ERA for one of the A's three consecutive pennant winners he played on. One memory Eckersley may want to forget was when he gave up Gobson's homer to lf)Se Game I of the 1988 World Series. It was ~ Series Eckersley and the A's wound up losing in five ~ames. Despite a mediocre year with the Red Sox - he went 4-1 with one save and a 4.76 ERA in SO relief appearances - Boston fans continued to cheer, and often gave standing DENNIS ECKERSLEY ovations to the. right hander. "! had a good run," Eckersley said. "I had somt magic that was with me for a long time, so I know that I was real lucky to not have my arm fall off for one thong , and to make it this long physically is tough enough. But to me, it's like you're bejng rescued too when your career's over. It's like, 'Whew, the pressure's off."' Scoreboard "'' -·- Portland ....

Youk, 52, had suffered from Lou Gehrig's disease for four years. He was confined to a wheelchair, fed through a tube in his stomach and had little movement left in his anns and hands.

In its antitrust lawsuit. the Justice Department contends that Microsoft illegally tried to alter Java because it considered it a threat to Windows. Soflware written using Java can run on a variety of computers, minimizing the Importance ·of Windows, which is installed on more than 90 percent of the nation's persOnal computers. Sun Vice President James Gosling told the judge that Microsoft may have viewed il'i versioil of lava a~ better than Sun's, but " their version of better is tied to the Windows platform .. and fail s to work on other sy~: lems. During· cros s-examinati~n Thursday. Microsoft confronted Gosling with a string of e-mails suggesting that Sun knew about Microsoft's plan to develop a Windows-based set of te~hnical tools' for Java ru; far as two months before the two companies signed a licensing agreement over Java. The documents also suggest that Microsoft offered to work with Sun on ways to make its version of Java interact with Windows better. But Gosling said his company was skeptical about any offer by Microsoft to cooperate. "'Our view was that when Microsoft was often holding out their hand, there was a knife in their hand, and they were expecting us to grab the blade." he said. Other companies wanting to use . or make changes in Java would first discuss their proposals with Sun and other software developers in a consensus-building strategy, Gosling said. Microsoft made it< alterations to . Java quicker than Sun had expe~ted. "I don't think we presumed this would cause us to send a nasty-gram from a lawyer," Gosling said, adding later, "We really, really wanted to coo~rate with Microsoft. " The contract dispute also is the focus of a lawsuit between the two companies.

(AP) -The county prosecutor says she is investigating how sheriff's officials handled the recent escape of two jail trusties who were captured in Ohio. · Masop County Prosecutor Diana Johnson said Friday that the county's 911 center wasn't notified about Thursday's escape until nearly 10 hours after Mike Wilson and Jonathan Eatmon walked away £rom the county jail .

Johnson said her investigation may end with charges being brought against county perso'nnel. She d1d not elaborate. .

In almost all cases, applications for demolition have come from the owners, explained Don McDade, GalliJl9lis' code' enforccmenLofftcer1 although !wo structures were tom down at the city's direction. · Those instances, involving two separate structures on Mill Creek Road, stemmed from the city's determination they were unsafe and posed a public lu:allh hazard. · "Mill Creek was was the first thing I did when I took this job," said MCDade, who was employed £or the position last summer. "I had seen a lot of letters £rom people complaining, and so had the city manager and the city commission, who· felt that the houses presented an unsafe situation." · Overall, 16 applications for demolition have been filed with McDade's offioe this year, compared to four last year. To date, _ 14 of the structures have been taken down.
