Governor Kaine made to more than 100-

File Tape On transportation, Kaine
increased the legislature's two- and-
a- half- billion- dollar bond package
to three- billion.... designating
existing taxes to repay the debt.

He also proposes increasing the
tax on diesel fuel to match that on
gasoline.

Delegate Morgan Griffith will ask
the House to reject Kaine's amendments
to his smoking bill... changes that ban
smoking in ALL restaurants.

Griffith fears the amendments go
too far... affecting smoking near
street venders and in stadiums.

The next topic...should Virginia
expand its list of crimes punishable by
death?

Kaine *vetoed* five bills that do
just that.

Lawmakers CAN override the
governor's vetoes with a two- thirds
vote in both houses.

They convene this afternoon in
the renovated capitol.

tax on diesel fuel to match that on
gasoline.

Delegate Morgan Griffith will ask
the House to reject Kaine's amendments
to his smoking bill... changes that ban
smoking in ALL restaurants.

Griffith fears the amendments go
too far... affecting smoking near
street venders and in stadiums.

The next topic...should Virginia
expand its list of crimes punishable by
death?

Kaine *vetoed* five bills that do
just that.

Now, lawmakers CAN override the

vote in both houses.

That's where the "everyone is
special" Adaptive Learning program
comes into play.

The LAUREL program in Lynchburg
provides classroom instruction for
regional students, ages 2-to-21, who
are severely and profoundly mentally or
physically handicapped or autistic.

Amazement Square's Adaptive
Learning program aids the school by
teaming up staff members and equipment
to assist in art exercises.

The program offers the children
an opportunity to experience things
they otherwise would not be exposed to.

smell it and experience it that way.
Just like a non-handicapped student
would. It offers them that experience.
It offers them socialization which is
extremely important. It's an
opportunity to expand on the classroom

On some days, the Laurel program

Square staff takes the equipment to the
Laurel school.

The technology used in helping
aid the children is as hi-tech as a
special paint roller that attach
directly to a wheelchair... to a
lo-tech, but equally as ingenius, lazer
point taped to a hat.

It was a great experience
watching the kids work with their
helpers.

We'll have more how exactly this
