Long· study of blank sky unveils rich fields of stars, galaxies
.By pt.UL RECER
·AP lclt,_ Wrlllr
• SAN ANTONIO (AP)- Staring at a "blank" patch of the universe, the
)lubble Space Telescope captured images of hundreds of galaxies so faint
)hey never before have been seen.
- 11le images are of the faintest stars and galaxies ever seen, some 4 billion times dimmer than what can be seen with the naked eye, astronomers
reponed Monday.
: Raben E. Williams, director of the Space Telescope Science Institute in
iJaltimore, said the findings were a treasure trove for astronomers that could
jxlssibly include the most distant, and hence the oldest, galaxies ever cap·\um on film .
' '" In archaeological tenns, it is sintilar to finding a royal city, but we don 't
bave the dates yet," he said. "We don 't know•yet if we are seeing the most
ilistant objeciS or not."
: A report on the just completed deep space survey was delivered to tl)e
pational meeting of the American Astronomical Society.

.

Williams said the finding was released quickly into the public domain so
that the world's astronomers could immediately begin studying the data,
described by some as "the astronontical equivalent of the Dead Sea Scrolls."
To gather the views, the Hubble Space Telescope was aimed at a specific target and allowed to capture light for 10 consecutive days.
The target was a wint in the sky near the handle of the Big Dipper, a part
of the universe continuously in view of the orbiting telescope.
· .Seen from the Earth, the target was very small, "about the size of a large
grain of sand held at arm 's length," Williams said. To ground telescopes, the
area seemed basically a blank pan of the sky. Yet the long exposure revealed
at least 1,500 galaxies in various stages of fonnation .
"The variety of galaxies we see is amazing," Williams said.
The study is rather like taking a core sample of the Earth. Such a sample
would have many layers of din and rock laid down over mill{ons of years.
In the celestial core sample, what is captured are views of stars and galaxies ranging fanher and fanher into the universe and increasingly distant in
time.

Some images 'could he from galaxies fo(llled within a billion years after
the beginning of the universe, but Williams said this will require detailed
analysis to determine.
"It's like looking down a long tube and seeing all the galaxies along that
line of sight," said Mark Dickinson, a member of the Hubble Space Telescope team. "They're all stacked up against one another in this picture, and
the challenge now is to disentangle them."
Some of the galaxies are " things we haven't seen before," said Andrew
S. Fruchter, another Hubble team member. There are elliptical shapes, and
spirals. Some are like beach balls and footballs. Others are long, cigar-shaped
'
•
clusters of stars.
A key question the study may answer is how do galaxies form? These star
groups are found throughout the universe. Astronomers so far do not understand how many billions of stars can come together to fonn a single cluster
like the Milky Way, a spiral galax~ that includes Earth's sun.
" Galaxies are not forming at the present," said Williams. "They seemed
to have fanned a long tinte ago. Exactly how they fanned is a mystery."
About 1,200 astronomen are meeting in San Antonio.through Thursday.

The emissions testing is required
by the federal Clean Air Act. Since
1991 . Cuyahoga County drivers had
been testing their taitp1pes for emissions, and in four ot her counties, visual inspections have been required.
But those tests were not as sophisticated as those required now, Madigan said.

Two na!iona l contractors were

chosen to run Ohio's new testing stations. Envirotest Systems of Tucson
Ariz., has the contract for the Cleve:

program in the Cincinnati area.
Those companies have failed to
open the stations on time, have had ·

computer technicians, and they will ·
be fined, Madigan said.

The Ohio EPA announced one other change to the program Tuesday.
Cars that fail the test can be
excused if certain repai rs have been
done by a certified techni cian. But
there aren't enough ce rtified technicians avai lable, ye t. so for the next six

on a balanced budget [.ian with an
election looming ever closer, but

and Republican leaders were to gather at the White House this afternoon
to see whether there was any give ]eft
in their divergent plans to eliminate
federal deficits m seven years.
Late Thesday, House Speaker.
Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., and Senate
Majority Leader Bob Dole, R-Kan.,
released a letter 10 whtch they
expressed concern that Chnton was
unable to get Democrats behind his
plan.

the United States'and illegally laundering or transferring some $8.6 mil lion. Mosi of the charges carry a maximum penalty of life in prison.
· · The unshaven Garcia Abrego,
arrested Sunday nigh! in Mexico,

walked into court in handcuffs and
the same camouflage jacket, black
slacks and gray shin that he wore
Monday night when he was transferred into the FBI's custody in
Houston.
The doughy-faced; heavy-set Garcia Abrego . answered "si" when
asked whether he understood the
Charges, the purpose of the hearing
and what was happening. An arraignment and detention hearing was set
for Feb. 6. Until then , he .will remain
in the Harris County Jail.

His attorney, Roberto Yzaguirre of
McAllen, refused to comment on the
case.
Although federal authorities say
Garcia Abrego was born in La Paloma, Texas, The Houston Chronicle
reponed today that state authorities
voided his birth certicate in 1993 as
fraudulent. Other souoces told !he
newspaper he was actually born in
Matamoros, Mexico.
Glyn Davies, deputy spokesman
for the State Department, said the
issue is moot because the Mexican

Simpson juror
didn't believe
one word of
·Fuhrman
LOS ANGELES (AP) - In the
eyes of the 0.1. Simpson jury forewoman, Mark Fuhrman was either a
Ku Klux Klansman or a skinhead
with hair. And she didn't believe a
word he said.
Although she didn 't like Fuhrman
from the start, Armanda «;:ooley
writes in the book "Madam Foreman" that the former detective's ini- \
tialtestimony "did not look good for
O.J."
.
But as Fuhrman underwent crossexamination by defense attorney F.
Lee Bailey, his ~ell1eanor changed,
said Cooley, the JUror who sat closestto the witness box.
" His breathing patterns .shifted
and, from where I was sitting, you
could see him squirming," she wrote.
. "Fuhrman kept pushing his feet up
against !he back board of the stand.
You could tell there was just a little
·anger building up in him. I'm thinking, 'This man is lying,"'
Jurors Carrie Bess and Marsha
Rubin-Jackson collaborated with
Cooley on the book. which comes out
this week and highlights the importance Fuhrman played in Simpson's
acquittal.
The book downplays the importance of the now·-infamous glove
demonstration; hoWever, in which
prosecutor Christopher Darden had
Simpson try on the evidence gloves
found at his estate and at the crime
scene. The gloves appeared not to fit,
but the jurors said they weren't convinced.
"Those gloves fit," Bess wrote.
"He wasn't putting them on right."
"Sure," added Rubin-Jackson ,
"you know, they fit. ·... I ·must have
had an expression on my face
because as he stood there. it was like
he was talking to me, and he went,
'They don't fit.' They would have fit
anybody.''
Two of the three jurors told "Dateline NBC" Tuesday night that were
they sitting on the jury of a civil trial, in which guilt is de&lt;:ided on a preponderance of evidence, they would
'have found Simpson guilty.
"Given that standard and based on
the amount of evidence that was presented ... then yes, you would have to
say that yes, he is guilty," Cooley
said. ·
"I'm standing by my verdict,"
Rubin-Jackson added. "But based on
what I've heard since I've been out,
I would have 10 vote guilty."
During !he trial, it was Fuhrman
who inade the biggest impression on
the jurors, they said.
"Fuhrman was the trial." Bess
.wrote. "Fuhrman found the hat.
Fuhrman found the glove. Fuhrman
found the blood. Fuhrman went over
the gate. Fuhrman did everything.
When you throw it out, what case do
you have? You've got reasonable
: doubt righl before you even get to the
criminalists."
Cooley recalled her first i111pres. sion of Fuhrman: "My first feeling
· when I saw him, he sort of looked
: like a Ku Klux Klan or a skinhead
: with hair."
:·: The first detective to arrive at the
.: murder scene, Fuhrman was por: - ~rayed by the defense as a racist who
: tried to frame Simpson.'The mostly
:.black jury was played an e~cerpt
-:from a !Bpe of Fuhrman uttering. a
·racial slur.
. But in "l&gt;fadam Foreman," the
:·three black jurors denied race played
· a role in their decision and contend. ed their ultimate ..:.._ and ~ery speedy
: verdict- was shaped mostly by their
· Jack of confidence in !he Police
· :Depll1litent and the eviljence it han:-dled.
.
· ::. The jurors,said !hey saw Darden
as a token·black plac-rd at !he counsel table by !he district attorney's
office.

You would think by now that the
possibilities from all the suit combina·
lions had been exhausted. But no, oc,·
casionally another comes along that
no one has studied: Look at the North·
Soulh heart suit in today's diagram.
With copious entries in each hand,
how would you play the suit for one
loser?
·
The deal occurred during last year's
world championships in Beijing. Most
pairs fil)ished in six hearts; not every·
· on'e made'it.
After winning the first trick with
dummy's diamond queen, should you
lead the trump 10 or five? If East has
a singleton honor, leading the 10
would not work well. So, you start with
the five. What do you do if East plays
either the three or the nine?
If East contributes the three, you
should put up the ace. West is twice as
likely to have a singleton honor as the
singleton nine. True, playing low from
hand is possible. You plan, if West
wins with an honor, to run the 10 next.
.This ducking play also works well
&gt;~hen East has all four trumps, but
I 'Illes to the doubleton king-queen with
West, which is more likely.
At the table, though, East played the
nine. Now it is correct to finesse the
jack. This wins when West has the
singleton three:'And you plan, if West
scoops up the trick with an honor, to
cash lhe ace, hoping East will play the
other honor.
Of course, if you are playing against
a very subtle East, he will play the
nine from Q-9-3 or K·9·3! Yet perhaps
life's too short worry about that.

Few.people understand how
drugs interact
with each other
.
By EUZABETH NEUS
Gannett New1 Service
WASHINGTON- Drinking and
driving don't mix, and neither do
drinking and Tylenol, acombination
that can cause serious, permanent liver damage.
And neither do Tylenol and AZT;
grapefruit juice and anti-organ rejection medication; and some antihistamines and antibiotics.
Surprised? You are not alone.
Few realize that drugs can interact
with each other and cause sometimes
dangerous effects that would not
occur if the drugs were taken alone.
"It's something that most people
and most physicians don't think
about," said Joe Graedon, co-author

of a new book called "The People's
Guide to Dangerous Drug Interactions."

"There's been this belief that you
can pop any number of herbs, minerals, vitamins, whatever, without any
consequence or interaction," he said.
''But there are (an estimated) 125,000
deaths each year from medical mistakes - wrong dose, wrong combination of drugs. That's a 747 every
day going down. "
Boston Globe columnist Betsy
Lehman died last year after she was
given an overdos" of a strong cancer
drug; studies coincidentally published soon after found ihat most

insemination is one reason. Another
is better nutrition, arranged by timing
the alfalfa and field com harvests
more accurately.
Add more sophisticated mechanical equipment and medicines to
minimize the risk of infection, and
you have animals that are 200 to 300
pounds bigger than those of a few
decades ago.
In modern barns, cows are
allowed to roam freely, choosing
where to eat and sleep, instead of
being chained into stalls.
"A contented cow is a more productive cow," said Bruce Hawley,
administrator of the New York Farm
Bureau. "It means treating the animal
li~e a gifted athlete."
Jensen embraces the changes and
presses ahead, knowing that his father
shared his enthusiasm. He remembers
bringing photographs of the newly
expanded free-stall bam to the hospital shonly before his father died in
December 1994 at age 75. ·
"One of the last things he said
was, 'It's beautifuf!' " Jensen said.
"He lay there with the tears running
down his cheeks. He lived anti
breathed the farm. That was- his
life."
.
And someday, Jensen hopes, there
will be a robust business to pass
along to his son and two daughters.
" There's ,two directions every
business goes - backwards or forwards," he said. "Nothing can staod
still, unfonunately."

High court may expedite, school funding case
By Wire and Staff Reportl
_
COLUMBUS- Adversaries in a state school funding lawsuit may consider asking the Ohio Supreme
Coun to put the case on a faster track.
·
Justices agm:d on Wednesday to decide if the shared
state-local financing plan was constitutional even
though spending disparities exist among 611 districts.
The vote was 6-1 to accept the case for oral arguments. Justice Craig Wright dissented.·
Buckley comments
Meigs Local Schools superintendent Bill Buckley,
. · whose' district is a me111ber of the coalition seeking
. changes in school funt!ing, feels that the disparities in
.funding are obvious, pocticularly in .southeast Ohio.
"The state withholds moi1,Cy from our district and
others because they say schools in this pan of the state
are not doing their fair share. Voters in our district just

passed their first tax levy in over 20 years, but yet the
state takes nearly $250,000 away from us each year
because we don't allocate the state mandated millage
for operations monies.
"I think the Supreme Coun is do.ing the right thing
by hearing the case. I don't know how they'll rule, but
it does give us another opportunity to bring about
change in the funding system," said Buckley
- "If the coun rules in favor of the schools,.basically
they are going to rule that education is a right for kids
in the state of Ohio and that current funding methods
are unconstitutional. In a similar case in Kentucky, the
coun system kept jurisdiction after ruling in favor of
schools over the state. When the legislature asked to
bring laws, rules, regulations into effect, the coun system had to approve each one. That's what q'uite po,ssibly could. happen in Ohio," s:jid Buckley.

that we at this point we would ask legal counsel to pursue that avenue . Now, legal counsel might advise us
against it," Phillis said.
Attorney General Betty Montgomery's office represents the state in the case. Spokesman Mark Weaver
said any tactical decision such as an expedited hearing
request would depend on consultation with clients.
"That includes the governor, the Legislature. the
education depanment and the Board of Education.
Based on their input we'll make our next move,"
Weaver said.
Judge Linton Lewis Jr. in Perry County Common
Pleas Coun ruled in 1994that the funding system was
inequitable, inadequate and unconstitutional. ,,
In August, the 5th Ohio District Coun of Appeals
in Canton ovenurned Lewis' decision, handing the state .
a victory with a ruling that the school funding system
was constitutional.

Won't mle out early timetable
Chief Justice Thomas Moyer said he doubted the
court would hear the case before a summer recess, but
would not rule out an early timetable.
·
"It is possible, if the coun wants to expedite it, that
we could-do it earlier. The earliest would be late May
or early June. That' would mean we would have to move
it ahead of other cases," Moyer said in an interview.
The Ohio Coalition for Equity &amp; Adequacy of
School Funding filed the lawsuit. Most of the state's
school districts are coalition members.
William Phillis. executive director, said the possibility of asking for an expedited hearing probably
would come -up during a meeting of the group's steering committee Friday.
"Our interest all along has been to move this case
as rapidly as possible and so it would be my opinion

Commissioners weigh
conservation proposals
By JIM FREEMAN
Sentinel lt.lf
Members of the Meigs County
Board of Commissioners met Monday with representatives from 'Honeywell inc. and Landis &amp; Gyr Powers Inc. concerning energy-saving
upgrade proposals for county-owned
buildings, particularly the county
counhouse, under Ohio Senate Bill
300.
Bill Maynor of Honeywell said his
company proposes to upgrade the
lighting and conven the existing
electric boiler in the courthouse to a
gas-fired unit. Later, Robert Priest of
Landis &amp; Gyr also proposed lighting
upgrades, coupled with more sophisticated temperature control devices.
Under the program, county governments can make energy-saving
upgrades to be paid for over a 10-year

period using money realized from the
energy savings. Officials from both
comp,anies guaranteed savings to the
county.
Senate Bill 300 is similar to the
House Bill 264 program which is
designed ·to encourage energy conservation in schools. Company representatives did not go into detail
ahout their respective proposals, due
t~ the competitive nature of the program.
Co~missioners said they would
evaluate both proposals and likely
arrive ~.la decision at next Monday's
meebng.
