Found this on Yahoo! News but I couldn't find it on the ohio.com site. Article follows: Bush's spiral awes Browns By Marla Ridenour, Beacon Journal staff writer BEREA - No matter what the Cleveland Browns think of President Bush's politics, at least they'll remember he throws a tight spiral. The president surprised the team with a 45-minute visit before practice Saturday morning en route to appearances in Canton and Pittsburgh. He shook hands and chatted with players and employees, posed for pictures and threw a few passes to receivers Dennis Northcutt and Andre Davis. "It was definitely the honor of...

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21 — Debate was under way in the Senate today on a bill to ban a procedure that has stirred deep emotions in the long struggle over abortion. The Senate was expected to pass the ban on the procedure, described by abortion foes as "partial birth abortion," before the end of business today. With House passage of the bill three weeks ago, the Senate's expected action today will send the bill to President Bush (news - web sites), who is eager to sign it. With Mr. Bush's signature, the bill will become — on paper, if not in...

OTTAWA (CP) - Some of the first patients to smoke Health Canada's government-approved marijuana say it's "disgusting" and want their money back. "It's totally unsuitable for human consumption," said Jim Wakeford, 58, an AIDS patient in Gibsons, B.C. "It gave me a slight buzziness for about three to five minutes, and that was it. I got no other effect from it." Barrie Dalley, a 52-year-old Toronto man who uses marijuana to combat the nausea associated with AIDS, said the Health Canada dope actually made him sick to his stomach. "I threw up," Dalley said Monday. "It made me nauseous because...

Name of Pride March 31, 2003 The 101st Airborne Division has named one outpost in Iraq "Forward Operating Base Shell" and then another, "Forward Operating Base Exxon." These military refueling outposts are basically desert gas stations. The New York Times does not approve of these names, my friends. A bitter reporter whines that the Pentagon shrugged off concerns that now might not be the time to mention the names of foreign oil companies while on Iraq soil. An Exxon Mobil spokesman said the names don't bother that company. "I think the 101st was being pretty creative in naming things...

It was on Jan. 1, 1983, that the 400 or so computers hooked to what was then called ARPANET had to switch to a communications protocol called TCP/IP, said Vint Cerf, the protocol's co-inventor. It was TCP/IP that allowed multiple networks to coexist and permitted applications like the World Wide Web to develop and thrive. In other words, it made the Internet what it is today. "This is a major milestone," Cerf said. "I consider the January 1983 date to be the real rollout of (the) Internet." Some, however, consider the Internet's age to be a more mature 33....

ROCKVILLE, MD—In a historic show of wad solidarity, delegates representing gaywads and dorkwads signed the first-ever Wad Alliance Treaty Monday in the cafeteria of Adlai Stevenson Memorial High School. The landmark accord, whose signing was presided over by President Clinton, is considered the most significant step ever taken toward wad unification."For too long, wad factionalism has divided the wad community, senselessly pitting wad against wad in bitter inter-wad disputes," dorkwad representative Tad Patrick Reems, 15, told reporters. "Now is the time for us to set aside our differences and join together in opposition of our common enemy—the mean, popular...

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6 (UPI) -- Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill and White House economic adviser Lawrence Lindsey, architect of the president's tax cuts, resigned within minutes of each other Friday, officials said. The resignations, effective in the next few weeks, came as the Labor Deparetment announced unemployment in November increased to 6 percent, the highest level in nine years. It was not clear if the resignations were coordinated, related to the spike in unemployment or were requested by the White House. "They resigned," White House spokesman Ari Fleischer said repeatedly when asked if the departures were part of a house cleaning....
