The man at the center of a federal probe into a possible terrorist attack has given writing, fingerprint and DNA samples to federal agents, his attorney said Wednesday.
Larry Jukes said he remembers when he could buy 10 cigarette packs for $2.50.
Nearly 500 people -- including students with serious breathing problems -- were evacuated from a Denver, Colorado, hospital and an affiliated school to escape the fumes from a hydrochloric acid spill, according to fire and school officials.

Many skiers who visit Colorado prefer the slopes of Aspen, Vail or Breckenridge. But there's a cool little day trip from Denver that often gets overlooked by out-of-towners.
NEW YORK -- First, perspective. One of the 10 best football players in history died the other day in Texas. It's important you know about him. There will be no forgetting Slingin' Sammy Baugh in this column. No sir. I'll write about him a bit later, but here's a tease: He had the best year a football player ever had, and there can be no possible argument on that from any Jim Brown fan, any Walter Payton fan, any Unitas, Montana, Marino, Brady, Butkus or Lawrence Taylor fan. Sixty-five years ago, in 1943, on a Redskins team with shrunken 28-man rosters because of the great war, Baugh led the NFL in:
DENVER, Colorado: 'Take us back from the direction we've taken'
I don't like the way the line has been abused this season. Overlays have triumphed, which is why you see so many of the handicappers' records in your paper above .500. The consensus of writers' panels always leans to the favorite. I said it after the first week, and then again after the second and the third: Look out for the dog. There is a great week of upsets coming. And so they did last week -- for the first half. Then things settled down.
The Eagles were tremendous last night. All that stood between them and beating the best team in football on the road was a botched Donovan McNabb-to-Brian Westbrook handoff with nine minutes left at the Dallas 33, trying to expand on a three-point lead. That's a once- or twice-a-year event, that kind of stupid play, and it shouldn't take away from what the Eagles showed the country in a scintillating football game.

If there is a heart to the city of Denver, it is the Weil family. Two years ago, Mayor John Hickenlooper even named a street named after the patriarch, Jack A. Weil, who at 106 still heads to work every morning at Rockmount Ranch Wear, the company he founded in 1946.
It seemed inevitable: to the 50,000-plus who showed up at Coors Field on Monday night, waving those white towels and adjusting their ski caps and chanting "Too-Low!"; to the hundreds of thousands more around the city, giddy with anticipation, who wore purple blouses and purple ties and smiled at strangers, buzzed on communal belief; to the street vendors selling purple brooms for $5 at the corner of 19th and Blake; hell, even to the players and managers themselves. Before the game, there was Bob Melvin, Arizona's manager, quietly telling reporters, without much conviction, "We just have to find a way to win that first one," while Rockies manager Clint Hurdle was basking in his team's surreal run, saying, "This is one of those things where you get everybody back 10, 20 years down the road and you have a reunion gig."

If you like surprises, basketball hasn't very good to you this year.
After more than 10 extraordinary seasons in Philadelphia -- his gutsy, MVP-worthy performances unfolding against the backdrop of his numerous clashes with authority -- Allen Iverson is aiming to lead the Nuggets to their first postseason series win in 13 years. At 31, the almost waifish guard with the third-highest career scoring average (27.9) in NBA history is sharing the spotlight with Denver's young star, Carmelo Anthony, and, three months after the trade that shook the NBA, finding peace.
