Ten years ago Monday. 1Pan Am Flight 1!)3 exploded · in the dark. frigid skies over Lockorbie. When the 747 jet crashed to the ground. it killed II loclls arid 259 people on the jet, ages 2 months to 82 years. Most of those on board were Americans. The catastrophic event on Dec. 21 , 1988. literally transformed this village of 3.000 near the English border, reshaping both it< psychological and ·physical foundations. More than half the town volunteered to help with relief effons on that bleak night. Now few are able to set aside memories of the tlames.the bodies and other visions of hell on eanh. A number of blocks were nauened hy falling debris, none more completely than Sherwood Crescent. To<.lay, a park has sprouted where a burning fusclage ·once lay. Bur lhere is a tremendous desire here ro move on. Most Lockerbie veterans shun the ·media and ·its obsession with the past. Many who live here today were not · present 10 years ago. Some who wen: have moved away. This progressive spirit caused townspeople to initially oppose all plans to mark the lOth anniversary of what is known here as the Loclcerbie Air Disaster. "To a man. they said. 'Let's put it behind us.' "says Marjory McQueen. 52. a town council member. "But then we decided we couldn't do that. We · share this with too many othef people." And so at 3 p.m. Monday there will be a wreath-laying ceremony at Dryfesdale Cemetery. where a gmn· · ite wall bears the chiseled names of all 270 victims. At 7 p.m., a special Ma" will begin at the town's parish church. There will be a moment of silence at 7:03. the time of the crash.

Robert. Byrd, D-W.V. Byrd, who has written a four-volume histoT'f of the Senate and is considered to be that body's most knowledgeable parliamentary scholar, will not speak directly about President Clinton's legal strategy. But in his acclaimed history, Byrd wrote that there ts precedent . for an impeachment proceeding to carry over from one Congress to the ne~t. as was the case with former U,S. District Judge Alcee Hastings of Florida. The House vot~d to impeach Hastings in 1988, but the Senate didn't convict him until 1989. The White House is toying with the idea of moving to dismissal least one of the articles of impeachment voted Saturday against Clinton on the grounds that one Congress cannot take up an impeachment voted by another. ln the Clinton ca1e, it will be a new Senate sworn in on Jan. 6 that will review the . impeachment articles _approved by a House that is being replaced in January. One thing Byrd is adamant about is he . doe sn'l think the_Senate should get involved in any plea bargain agreement with the White House for censure or any other solution.

A sadly historic day Some people are delighted thai President ·Clinton was impeached, incl.uding inveterate Ointon-haters who think Slick Willie is finally getting his comeuppance and some who doubted that politicians could ever buck the opinion polls. Me, I'm depressed, and the only comfort is that other people are, too, and not only Democrats. Dr. Doree Lynn, a · wise Washington psychotperapist, reports that "everyone I know with any connection to the government is depressed, and this is people in both panies. "I've never seen it like this. The closest was when Hillary Clinton's healih care plan went down and people were depressed about it and for her. But this is dif· ferenl. P~ople feel sullied now, shamed. Their dignity is lost." Last week, Gallup asked peo. pie which emotions they 'd harbor if Clinton were impeached and his case sent to the Senate for a trial. Only· 31 percent said they'd be "pleased," 41 percen\ said for it when it's over. Clinton is the epitome of 1960s values -- a libertine draft-dodger who preaches personal responsibility but doesn't practice it •• but it's hard to see his downfall as a moral improvement for the country. . To the contrary, the Lewinsky case represents the triumph of lab1oidism. Sex sells everything from soap to sitcoms. Now it's imbedded in our politics, too. Clinton's alleged sexual misdeed with Paula Jones-- a revolting but onetime, non-threatening encounter -- served as a launching pad for Clinton's ·enemies. His misdeeds with Lewinsky •• disgusting, but consensual -- provided the basis for a perjury trap thai Oinlon slquched into. Shame, a habit ·or lying and pride produced crimes of perjury. The House is about to pronounce these as impeachable " high crimes," an become. Fortll'erly, politicians savaged their enc; : mies in congressional hearings.

The Broncos( l 3-l)areass urcd of the home-field advuntagc throu ghout th e AFC playoiTs, and,-unul recent I; they appeared unbeatable. But in thei\ second consecutive los-. the secondary looked po rous. Terrell DaviS looked ordmary and Elway looked Jm age. " I don·t want to hear that we don't ha> e anythmg to play for," tight end Shannon Sharpe satd: " We have to get better before we sat! Jnto the playoffs. Right now. we don't look like we ough\ to hem the playoffs . " We thought ·we could just skate o ut and win ballgames , and now n's catching up with us ·· For Denver fans. the late-season skid is eerily similar to 1996, when the Broncos rested key players the final two weeks , then lost at home to Jacksonvolle m their first playoff game .

Marino rallied Miami from an early 10-0 deficit. He connected with Lamar Thomas on touchdowns of nine, 56 and 17 yards, then added an eoght-yard sconng pass to Oronde Gadsden fora28-131ead . Thomas celebrated each touchdown by running to the first row of the stands and handing the balls to his uncle , aunt and grandmother, who was attending her first NFL game. "It feels great," satd Thomas , who made six catches for 136 yards. " We came out tonight and played our hearts out." . "When you play ; team like Denver, you' ve got to score every opportunity you get, because they have a lot of ·firepower," Marino said. "We knew everybody had to play well for us to win, because they 're the best team in the league."

Aeaociatad Preaa Writer WASHINGTON (AP) - it's a short walk across the street fro'!' the Supreme Court 10 the Capitol, where .Chief Justice William H.Rehnquist would preside over President Clinton's impeachmenl .lriai. Bul the trip will take him from the relative anonymity of the television-free court into millions of American living rooms. Rehnquist would be only the second chief j,uslice to preside over a presidential impeachment trial, but the first to conduct al least some of the proceedings on TV. While the high-profile . trial might mean be would no longer go, virtually unnoticed on his daily sarolls ·outside the Supreme Court building, mill~ coun watchers say be is a good fil for the role. "He will run a very fair, ef(i; cient proceeding and' be will nol allow it to get out of control," said Washington Iawyer Theodore Olson, who bas often argued before lhe highest court. Charles Cooper, a former law . clerk to Rehnquist and a frequent advocate before the high court, William H. predicted the chief justice would use his authority to keep an impeachmenl trial "focused on the facts that are relevant and keep the extraneous or purely political stuff to a minimum." Rehnquist is . keeping his thoughts about an impeachment trial to himself. But allhe court, he is known for his calm, gentlemanly manner 'and ability to run a tight ship. The 74-year-old Rehnquist, nominated by President Nixon, joined the high courl in 1972. He became the nation's 16th chief justice when promoted by President Reagan in I 986 : He is one of the.court's most conservative members but is well-liked by colleagues of ail ideologies. Rehnquist seemingly hates to waste time. He ,keeps oral arguments to a strict one-hour limit and has shortened the justices' private confer~nces . When a major snowstorm shut down most of Washington in January 1996, the chief justice kept the Supreme Court open for business. At the Supreme Court, the chief justice acts as presiding officer and has one of nine votes. AI a . . appointment of new 'l're Chl'ef Senate impeachment trial, Rehnquist would have no vote and a limited role as presiding officer. He would rule iin questions involving evidence II and other incidental m~tters, but a simple majority Pomeroy Village Council will wail uniil vote of senators could override his judgment.

And Secretary of State Madeleine Albright spoke by telephQne Tuesday with Russian Foreign Minister Igor Ivanov. Russian ambassador Yuli Voronstov, who was recalled by President Boris Yeltsin last week to protest the attack on Iraq, is due to return here later in the week, Pickering said. France's attempt to change the inspection team as a me ans of inducing Iraq to cooperate with weapons inspections was rejected Monday by Tariq Aziz, the deputy prime minister. " Richard Butler is a cheap pawn in the hands of the Americans," Aziz sai.d. " He is not the is5ue.

"If it does not permit UNSCOM to come back, then .it has selected sanctions in perpetuity" if it mai ntains an arsenal of weapons of mass destruction, inoves against Kurds in Iraq orathreatens its neighbors, Pickering said. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
