S. officials said, either the Avalon or the Mystic could have been flown to a Russian port by Monday and carried to the Kursk by a Russian cargo ship.One concern was whether the hatches on the U.S. craft would have fit tightly enough with the hatches on the Russian submarine. Another was whether the Kursk was leaning too far toward one side for the rescue craft to connect to it.But after Russian officials finally requested international help on Wednesday, Great Britain dispatched a smaller rescue submarine. It is expected to reach the Kursk on Saturday.

66.8 4 vital NYT20000821.0468 Russian officials' assertions on Monday that the Kursk sank after a collision, most likely with a foreign submarine, echoed the kind of suspicions that were common during the Cold War, when on more than a dozen occasions, Russian and Western submarines banged into one another.The Russians have long resented the fact that many of the collisions occurred in or near their waters and, in their view, amounted to hit-and-run jobs, as American and British spy subs quickly fled to safety. One Russian submarine was so badly damaged after colliding with an American boat in 1970 that it almost sank, the Russian navy contends.Pentagon officials have repeatedly denied that any American submarine collided with the Kursk, which plunged to the seabed on Aug. 12. An intense rescue operation ended on Monday when the Russians concluded that all 118 sailors had died in the wreckage.U.S. officials have said that two American submarines were in the Barents Sea to monitor a Russian naval exercise that included the Kursk. But they have said that neither submarine was close to the Russian vessel. British officials also denied any involvement on Monday, saying they had no submarines in the Barents Sea.Since the Cold War ended, the tenor of the cat-and-mouse game, in which the submarines chased one another to test the other side's capabilities, has grown less aggressive.American officials even called Russian leaders to apologize shortly after each of the last two collisions occurred, in the early 1990s.

73.7 2 vital APW19981228.1111 How does online drug ordering work?Customers first type their credit-card information into a computer.They're typically asked to waive the site's liability if they experience health problems. Then they fill out a questionnaire of health information.The Viagra sites alone differ dramatically in what health questions they ask, and what prices they charge.One site asks one question only: Do you take nitroglycerin or other ``nitrates''? Taking Viagra with those drugs can kill. But other health problems, including heart disease, recent heart attacks or abnormal blood pressure, also can make Viagra risky. Another site asks about those additional health problems, including whether would-be Viagra users recently had a ``myocardial infarction'' _ a heart attack.U.S. sites typically charge a ``consultation fee'' for a doctor to read those questionnaires, an effort to fulfill requirements that only doctors prescribe medication. The sites waive that fee if the doctor denies the customer the drug. If the drug is shipped, the customer pays the consultation fee, anywhere from dlrs 35 to dlrs 85, plus the drug's cost _ at one U.S. site, dlrs 105 for 10 Viagra pills.Foreign sites typically say they don't require a prescription _ hence no consultation fee and fewer health questions. One Viagra site advertises a trial-run of just two Viagra tablets for dlrs 58. Another advertises 30 Viagra pills for dlrs 620.Viagra typically sells in regular U.S. pharmacies for dlrs 8 to dlrs 10 a pill

Last month, Pfizer Inc. reported Viagra sales of $141 million worldwide for the third quarter _ about a third of Viagra's $411 million sales in the second quarter.Dr. Larry Litscher, a Dayton urologist and a faculty member of Wright State University School of Medicine, isn't surprised. He says Viagra could never have lived up to its early hype as the first oral medication for impotence.``You had to be living in a cave at the time not to have heard about Viagra,'' he said. ``The result is that every man who ever had a problem (with impotence) asked for the drug when it first came out,'' whether it might work for him or not.Many patients were soon disappointed with

Holton transferred to the University of Illinois because it had an engineering program that DePauw lacked, and Miss Clark dropped out to be with him.They were married in 1930 and, according to DePauw president Robert Bottoms, always felt a strong connection to the university.Holton went on to become president and chief executive of Inland Container Corp., a corrugated box company in Indianapolis, in 1963, before becoming its vice chairman in 1970. He retired in 1975.It was around this time that Holton first began writing an annual letter to the university, expressing a desire to create scholarships for Midwestern students with a small trust that he intended to leave to DePauw after he and his wife had died, Bottoms said.The couple's only child, Jane, died in 1974 at the age of 38. She had no children.DePauw, a liberal arts institution in Greencastle, in west-central Indiana, has an enrollment of 2,334. Although the gift ranks among the 10 largest to an American university, it is dwarfed by the gift believed to lead that list: $300 million in stock from the Ingram Charitable Fund to Vanderbilt University last year.When Bottoms became president of DePauw in 1986, he said Holton estimated the value of the trust at about $1.5 million.After Holton died in 1995, a month shy of his 88th birthday, the trust reverted to his wife. When she died in 1997, at 90, the university was told that the trust was worth about $18 million, Bottoms said.Soon after, though, Bottoms said he was stunned to learn that DePauw had been named as the beneficiary of half of the Holtons' estate, much of it invested in Time-Warner stock that Holton had first received when his company was bought by Time Inc. in 1978, before being spun off in 1983.At the time of Mrs. Holton's death, the full estate was valued at $125 million, Bottoms said.But in the two years it has taken to transfer half of the estate to DePauw, the value of Time-Warner stock has climbed, doubling the estate's value.The university's share, Bottoms said, was ultimately $128 million _ enough to pay for 75 scholarships a year.The scholarships are to be awarded on the basis of need, as well as merit, to students from Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and Ohio

75.8 6 okay APW19990125.0320 NEW YORK (AP)-- Shares of drugmaker Merck & Co. continued downward Monday due to investor disappointment over a research setback involving an experimental antidepressant.Merck disclosed Friday that it was delaying the final stage of testing for the drug, known as MK-869, after small human studies showed it offered no improvement compared with a dummy pill. Merck shares fell $7.31 1/4 after the announcement Friday. On Monday, CIBC Oppenheimer downgraded the firm's investment rating on Merck from a strong buy to a buy. The stock dropped another $1.50 Monday to $137.50 in the New York Stock Exchange trading.Some analysts had hoped MK-869, would have helped protect Merck from the rash of patent expirations involving its major drugs in the next three years. The expirations will likely cause a flood of cheaper generic medicines and erode Merck's sales.MK-869 was also expected to shake up the $7 billion antidepressant market, now dominated by Eli Lilly's Prozac and Pfizer's Zoloft.Merck, based in Whitehouse Station, N.J., said it was evaluating its options related to MK-869. Merck initially expected to start final stage of human testing this year. Those plans have now been placed on hold.``This delay is clearly a major negative for Merck's stock,'' said Mariola Haggar, analyst with Deutsche Bank Securities.The problem with MK-869 places more pressure on Merck's other expected blockbuster, Vioxx, a drug for pain relief, she said. The Food and Drug Administration is expected to approve Vioxx later this year.Merck said it still plans to move ahead with studies to use MK-869 to help prevent nausea in chemotherapy patients
