Legally blind, Stocks suffers from terminal cancer His money will be divided among friends and relatives, as well as the kin of tus wife, Lena, who died four years ago, said his niece, Delma Tangreen, who cares for him. Tangreen said she spoke by telephone Friday with Jerry Fischer, assistant director of the civil division at the U.S. DepartHe was really ment of Justice kind, very gracious," Tangreen said. He said he was glad he could do it and you tell Mr. Stocks we are grate Ccr.&a ful for what he did for the United States and its too bad hes sick." No information was immediately available as to whether other miners who had received IOUs were paid. Killian said Stocks experience shows how important attorneys can be in such cases. The revised compensation act limits attorney fees to two percent unless the attorney appeals a denial. In that case, an attorney can charge 10 percent, which matches Killians fee. Killian also took Stocks case after his first claim had been rejected Other miners qualify for the pay-men- ts and haven't received any money, he said. The payment is "great for Richard Stocks," he said, but it's not so great for everyone else."

Despite the improved security measures taken as a result of the attack two weeks ago, Condie says Ruralnet, and in fact all ISPs, are vulnerable. Likening the process to the Cold War, he said every time service providers step up their security, the hackers just step up their methods of breaking through them. Most people think their system will never get hacked but it can happen to anyone.

The intruder raised his arms in a gesture of a shrug, then replied with a string of somewhat incoherent statements: I dont know where I am. . .1 was looking for a phone. . .1 tried to call 911. . .1 tried to call the operator. . .1 tried to call my mom. . .Im scared." Radcliffe told him he could help and asked the man to follow him. Surprisingly, he came along. The two walked back to the front office on opposite sides of the wide hallway while the man continued to talk somewhat incoherently. After police arrived and arrested the man, an inspection of the library found the missing fire extinguisher lying on the library floor. A phone had been dragged out into the middle of the room, a boombox music system had been moved and was playing tunes from a local radio station, an empty camcorder case had been taken out and opened. And the word amor" sic had been scrawled in ballpoint per. on two walls and in a sign-i- n ledger. Police estimated the total dam- at $1,500. Library media teacher Joan Gough The story weve heard is that he was at some alternative gathering in Nevada and that his girlfriend dumped him and he was very upset But I have no idea what his motivation was." Remarks from students throughout the morning regarding the incident ran the gamut from stupid to interesting," from weird to "scary she added. The teachers are mostly thankful that he didnt do more damage or that he didn't resist Radcliffe when he confronted him." High School Principal Fern Wilkerson was glad the incident had been resolved peacefully and the suspect was apprehended quickly. If no one had been found inside the building, she said, most likely, we would wonder if it was one ofour kids," who had caused the damage. This way, the students were spared suspicion, she explained. School District Superintendent Ron Ferguson said Radcliffe "was kind of a hero, there. It was kind of a scary thing But Radcliffe said, I dont feel that I was a hero at all. I feel I was stupid and lucky. I keep thinking, how did I get myself into this thing? I should have sensed something was wrong before I did. Im truly lucky that nothing worse happened."
