Fires finally out

Weekend rain: Eastern Kentucky residents have
rain to be thankful for as fires die out

ASSOCIATED PRESS

LEXING’I‘UN. Ky. Firefight-
ers battling blazes in eastern Ken-
tucky and elsewhere can give
thanks to steady rain showers that
fell over the 'l‘hanksgiving holiday.

Kentucky forestry officials re-
port that dozens of forest fires
bltrning for several weeks
throughout eastern ant] southeast
ern Kentucky were out and emer-
gency crews were returning home.

"I don‘t want to say we‘re in
tile clear yet. but it‘s looking a
whole lot better.” said Eric
(lracey. a spokesman for the state
Division of Forestry said Friday.

Forest fires have dalnaged
more than 120.000 acres in Kcnv
tucky this year. More than 73.000
of those acres have been burned
since Nov. 10.

-QLDJXENILLCKYJQME-

But the rainfall helped douse
fires in the region and left behind
saturated forests that are more dif
ficult to ignite.

The National Weather Service
at Jackson reported more than
three inches of rainfall Thursday
in some parts of Pike (‘ountyt (in

Friday. another quarter inch of

rainfall fell. Weather officials in
.lackson said.

However. emergency manage-
tnent officials said the rainfall.
which generally subsided Satur-
day anti yesterday. was too little to
end drought conditions.

With the fires finally out. state
officials will now focus on sorting
out the massive firefighting effort.

Forestryofficials will continue
monitoring weather conditions
through the Dec. 12 end of the fire
season. said Dexter Conley. dis-
trict forester in Betsy Layne. Sea

sonal crews also will remain on
call.

In West \‘irginia. where 52.975
acres have burned since Oct. 1. Na
tional Guard crews were sent
home 'l‘hursday. No new fires were
reported Friday. said .ledd Flow-
ers. a spokesman for the West Vir~
gillia agency.

".»\ll ofour tires are under con-
trol. The rain gave us an opportu»
nity' to get control lines down. We
are very thankful for that rain.”
Flowers said

Several states provided fire—
fighting crews and members of the
Kentucky National Guard and Di-
vision of forestry were called ill.

tiracey estimates the cost for
fighting the fires these past two
weeks will top $4 million.

Most crews have worked 12 to
to hour days without relief over
the past month.

“There are going to be some
people that are going to be taking
sortie long naps this weekend."

UK experts identify poor regions

ASSOCIATED PRESS

LEXINGTON. Ky.
Health experts say pover
ty and education are the
two major factors behind
most of the health prob
lems that plague eastern

Kentucky and central
Appalachia.
Statistics compiled

by the University of Ken-
tucky Center for Rural
Health show that a 19.
county area of eastern
Kentucky known as Re
gion 8 is the state‘s un~
healthiest place to live.
Region 8 includes the
following counties: Pike.
Martin. Letcher. John-
son. Floyd. Ilarlan. Per-
ry. Knott. lireathitt.

Magoffin. Leslie. Wolfe.

Lee. ()wsley. Clay. Lau-
rel. Nell. Knox and Whit-
ley.

“If you ran the nuttr
bers again today. the per-
centages might change.
bllt the rankings would
stay pretty much the
same." said Steve Frick~
er. former deputy direc-
tor for community pro-
grams at the rural health
center.

Loyd Kepferle. direc-
tor of‘ the UK rural health
center. anti Karen Main.
the center's deputy direc-
tor. believe a lack of mon-
ey and education ex-
plains many of the re

The two said that
only about halfof Region

fewer than 10 percent

About lit) percent live at
the poverty level; about
30 percent are on food
stamps: anti only about
l6 percent have health in-
surance.

“Poverty and poor
education.” Kepf‘erle
said. “The combination
of these two factors is a
killer. particularly when
it comes to preventive
care that could help pre
vent things like cancer
and heart disease."

“When you're strug~

you don‘t think much

You'll pay later: Students eager to play

By Amanda York

ASSISTANTNEWS that:

 

 

The holiday season kicked
off the day after ’l‘hanksgiving.
and students froln across the
country hit the nearest malls
with their credit cards lll hand.

Many l'K students. no e\
ception to the shopping frenzy.
fall victim to credit card debt
during the holiday season.

.\manda (‘reekrnore. a
broadcast _|tJlll‘llllllSlll fresh
man. said her mother had to
pay the weekend‘s expenses
because her credit card was at
its limit.

"I‘m already in debt and
don‘t need to put anything else
on my credit card." she said.

Expenses range from the
practical to the outrageous

Greg Jones. an undeclared
sophomore. said one of the
biggest expenses incurred by his
credit card hapixtned at a bar.

“I spent $100 on beer and
stufi‘at a bar fer me and my butl-
dies. From what I remember it
was a good time." Jones said.

For many students the
good times rtm out when they
find themselves in debt.

A recent study conducted
by the (‘onsumer Federation of
America showed that nearly
onetifth of students that carry
a credit card have arcumulat»
ed sloooo in debt.

The (‘onsunler (‘t‘edit
(Iounsellng Services of (‘entrai
Kentucky provides help for col-
lege students in c”edit card debt.

“We use a debt manage
tnent program and we actually
work out a payment plan based
on the creditors guidelines.”
said .lohnny Cantrell. director
ofoperations for the service.

(‘antrell said students find
credit cards appealing because
ofconveniencti.

"(‘ollege students don‘t .,
look at other options. The cred
it card is easy. it's convenient
antl it‘s there. Students look at
the convenience ofthe credit card
more than zmything." he said.

'l‘ypically. people just spend
above their means and end up
using the credit card to supplt—r
ment their income. and credit
card holders are especially
vulnerable during the holiday
season. he said.

"Around the holidays the
biggest problem is instant
gratification and impulse buy
ing." (‘alltrell said.

Avoid credit
card debt

1. Try to negotiate
lower credit card
interest rates.

2. Save $1500 to
$2000 by
understanding how
loan officers
evaluate.

3. Control overspend-
ing by using a
transaction recorder.
The transaction
recorder allows you to
track purchases the
same way you record

checks you write.

Probes to explore Martian surface

ASSOCIATED PRESS

PASADENA. (‘alif Two little space
probes heading for Mars this week won‘t
float beneath parachutes or bounce to a
landing on cushions. Instead. they'll smash
into the planet at flit) mph. punching into
the ground like interplanetary lawn darts.

If the drastic landing technique works
Friday. the softball-size instrument pack
ages will search for water and test lower
cost technology that could revolutionize so-
lar system exploration.

The Deep Space 2 probes are flying to
ward the Red Planet along with the Mars
Polar Lander.

After they reach Mars. l’olar Lander
will begin a controlled descent. The probes
will follow 18 seconds later. but unlike the
lander their TTntile fall won’t be slowed by
any expensive parachutes or thrusters.

“We‘re not your average mission
we‘re slamming into a planet at 400 mph."
said Deep Space 2 project manager Sarah
(iavit at NASA's .let Propulsion Laboratory.

tor to separate from the center of each
probe and plunge up to 2 feet into the
ground. A cable will connect the penetrator
to the orange aboveground unit that con
tains instruments antl a transmitter.

Even after successful tests on Earth.
there‘s no guarantee of survival on Mars.
The 8-pound probes might hit rocks and
shatter. Their antennas could be swallowed
up by soft. dusty soil. A gust of wind could
blow them upside down during flight.

“We'\ e got a pretty robust design. but
it's like throwing one of these things out
here in the middle of Pasadena and saying
it has got to penetrate no matter where it
lands." (iavit said. “If it lands in the middle
ofthe freeway. it's not going to penetrate.”

Deep Space 2 will be declared a success
if mission controllers receive any signal
from one of the probes. Any science data
will be considered a windfall. said Suzanne
Smrekar. project scientist for Deep Space 2.

Two basketball-sized microprobes will be released
by the spacecraft before entry. The microprobes
slam into the planet's surface at 400 mph. After
