Now the Washington Post, the Richmond Times-Dispatch and the Virginian-Pilot have joined the Boston Globe and Centurion Ministries in asking a Buchanan County judge to allow new D-N-A testing.
When Coleman was convicted, D-N-A testing showed he -along with 2 percent of the population - could have been the attacker.

[IN Q=the girls tend to...]

[OUT Q=a individualized sport.]
Each sport comes with its own style of ice skate. The skate you pick will determine the kind of skating you can engage it.
[SOT 31:24-31:38]
[IN Q=The major difference...]
((The major difference, the most obvious, is the toe picks for the figure skate. That's for the spins and jumps. You can dig in a little more whereas, hockey skates, you don't need that. You want a little more push off, a little more thrust.))
[RUNS= 14]
[OUT Q=a little more thrust.]
And , perhaps, a little protection? If hitting the ice makes you nervous about, well, hitting the ice, some strategically placed padding can help thaw your anxiety.
[SOT 31:56-32:11]
[IN Q=It's always good...]
((It's always good to wear a helmet, a good pair of gloves in case you do fall. On top of that, elbow pads are always good to have and maybe even some shin guards like they do for roller blading. So there are some protective measures that you can take.))
[RUNS= 15]
[OUT Q=you can take.]
Instructors even teach their students to pick up the pace. They say speeding up lessens the pain of falling down.
[SOT 39:04-39:14]

((Tonight, I made 'em get out here and work hard.. .and show them that it doesn't hurt to fall when you skate fast. It actually is a little bit easier. So we're trying to get 'em moving a little bit more.))
[RUNS= 10]
[OUT Q=a little bit more.]
If you want to take classes but aren't sure where to begin, instructors will help determine your skill level. And if you'd rather brave the rink without guidance, public skating times are available. Who knows, with a little practice, you could become a skating sensation yourself. Shannon Young, News 7, Roanoke.))
