*CG locator Fort A. P. Hill
2005 Every four years, thousands of
scouts from across the country gather
at Fort A-P Hill in Bowling Green. The
event began in 1937.


The legal fight stems from
a lawsuit filed against the Pentagon in
1999 on behalf of two Chicago-area
religious leaders.

They claim the Boy Scouts
shouldn't be receiving public support
for the event because the Boy Scouts
require members to swear an oath of
"Duty to God."

But the Seventh U-S Circuit Court
of Appeals said in a ruling today that
the plaintiffs didn't have standing to
file the lawsuit.

*CG 2linel Video From
Consumer Product Safety Commission Intex Recreation Corporation has
recalled 460-thousand above-ground pool
ladders.

The models include the 42-inch,
48-inch, and 52-inch "A" frame with the

brand names "Intex," "Easy Set" and
"Sand N Sun" brands.

They were sold at Sam's Club,
Wal Mart and Target from February
2006-to February of this year. They
ranged from 150-800 dollars.

So far 172 people have been
hurt....apparently the ladder's steps
can be put together backwards on
support brackets and then break.
