because firefighters are doing the inspections we can't work around every business's schedule We have to do the inspections when we get the chance” Large buildings like the Ecclcs Theatre have an advantage on the advance-notic- e front Hunsaker conducts the inspecpersonally tion and to access all the nooks crannies and locked doors Hun-sakhas to have the building manager in tow for an inspection “He (Hardman) knew we were cr key-carryi- coming" Hunsaker said “He definitely was ready for me" But still Hunsakcr's hawklike eyes diligently scoped out every electrical outlet every stray paint cun and every sticky exit door After all the Eccles is a building of special concern to Hunsaker and as she pokes and prods around she seems to know what lies behind every door "You get to know a building like this" she said “I am in here lot" Fire marshals’ memories are long and in this case Hunsaker's memory stretches back like a faulty extension cord to 1990 when the theater was nearly destroyed during renovation by a fire caused by none other than an extension cord Always with the extension cords “The fire started right under this floor" she said standing in the Bullcn Center's dance studio “They had 300 feet of cord pinched by a metal door leading into a crawlspace It was running a space heater and a light in the crawl space It sparked all night and finally caught this stripped hardwood floor on fire” These days the historic building is one of the most conscious in the state It of has three alarm systems two of which are redundant numerous exit corridors and a

occupancy number was one of a few minor infractions Ellen Ecdes Theatre complex during a recent fire safety Inspection A missing “An alarm system like this one is expensive" Hunsaker said “But when they rebuilt this place they wanted to do it right” Hunsaker speculates the reconstruction of the Eccles was fireconscious solely because of its fire history “All of this stuff was required by fire codes but when we were going over the plans we didn't have any debates over fire safety” she said She is businesslike and friendly as she leads Hardman around the building he manages but quickly turns stern as she notes Hardman’s most egregious mistake “Who cut a hole in this door?’ she asks pointing to a mail slot sliced into the door of the Bullen Center gift shop” “Umm” I did “Hardman gulps “This is a no vi fire-rat- ed door No Hunsaker explains the doors lining the hallway of offices in the Bullen Center are all rated to keep a fire contained in one section of the multi-us- e building The hallway is fire corridor and its doors are in the Church of Fire Prevention sacred ground that shall not be breached or defiled It was a fire separation area like this one Hunsaker said that prevented the 1990 fire from destroying the entire city block Time to buy a new door Other than the door however Hunsaker only found a few minor problems in the building and was pleased to find some

13 months ago VicodinES also is the name of a narcotic painkiller made by Knoll Laboratories At company headquarters in Mount Olive NJ spokeswoman Linda Mayer said today that all she knows about Melissa is what she's read in newspapers Civil engineer Scott Steinmetz the AOL subscriber whose account was allegedly used by the virus maker said he learned his name was associated with the virus talking with reporters Monday “1 imagine it’s cost tens of millions of dollars in lost time by now and here I am associated with it and I'm barely computer-literate- ” Steinmetz of Lynnwood Wash told The Seattle Times “I'm having a hard time believing this is happening” He said his company was among those affected As inconvenient as Melissa is Smith said the real danger is that the author is putting tool kits online that other people can download and create their own viruses “You could download them and someone else could use them” he said today The name VicodinES also has come up in the past A December 1997 alert issued by Network Associates maker of the popular Dr Solomon's program warned of a similar virus anti-vir- us allegedly created by VicodinES e-m- ail called “AnxietyPoppy93" Smith said he has turned his information over to the FBL Bill Carter an FBI spokesman would not comment on whether investigators had any leads Michael Vatis a federal prosecutor and director of the National Infrastructure Protection Center in Washington said military and other government computers were among the thousands affected by the virus The digital fingerprint Smith used is a unique identifying number that Microsoft’s Office suite of programs attaches to documents created on a specific computer By discovering the computer the documents containing Melissa came from investigators could presumably find the author Compounding the effects of Melissa a similar virus called “Papa” was discovered Monday Papa sends out even more infected messages than Melissa though it has a bug that

want to see resolved" The Logan Fire Department will be conducting business inspections through the end of May Business owners with questions about fire safety or inspection expectations should contact Hunsaker at 730-999-0 She'll be more than happy to answer them “I'd rather have businesses call me” she said “It saves money frustration and a lot of Deal Continued from Page 1 Clinton said

leadership Milosevic’s statement said “the' Yugoslav leadership will accept Russia's suggestion that after the bombing stops — it will start decreasing the presence of a part of its forces in Kosovo

conflict He spoke to reporters after arriving in Bonn to brief German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder the current chairman the bombardment stops” Primakov said through an interpreter calling Milosevic ready for “constructive negotiations" He said Milosevic wants the goal of the talks to be “that the interests of all groups in Kosovo must be maintained” — a reference to the Serb minority in the largely ethnic Albanian province of Yugoslavia About 90 minutes after Primakov left Belgrade air raid sirens sounded in the capital for the first time all day indicating a resumption of NATO attacks
