This was the most powerful Atlantic
Hurricane to hit land in two decades.
As

a rare and dangerous category five
storm, it skirted densely populated
tourist

areas like Cancun, but walloped smaller

topping 160 miles per hour. Relief

Dean is roughly 400 miles south of
Texas, so the state has eased its storm

readiness, and evacuation orders have
been lifted.

(natz)

There s still a possibility of high
surf, strong winds and rain that could

cause problems in low lying, flood
prone areas.

(natz)

Out in the Bay of Campeche there s an
even bigger concern. More than 100 oil

rigs are in the path of the storm.
They ve been shut down and workers have

been evacuated.

Sot: George Baker/Mexican Energy
Analyst

As an operating premise, assume there
s going to be some significant damage.

A good portion of the oil pumped at
these installations heads to refineries

the U.S.and experts say even a short

interruption in supply could mean
higher

prices at the pump.

It was a dirty job... but an
employee of the company that maintains
the porta-johns was able to retrieve
the ring .

It's now safely back on Henderson's
finger.

And he says from now on, he'll be
more careful.

GRAPHIC=TECH The Virginia Tech Hokies are now

down to the final practices before they
begin game preparations for East
Carolina next week.

Yesterday, Head Coach Frank
Beamer and his staff decided to
permanently move Ike Whitaker to wide
receiver for this season.

:00 Whitaker has spent most of the
summer going back and forth between
wide out and quarterback.

This decision means that freshman
Tyrod Taylor is now number two on the
quarterback depth chart, with Cory Holt
third- string.

The coaches have been debating
whether or not to redshirt the highly-
touted freshman from Hampton.

Many say that Taylor brings a ton
of skills to the table, as well as a
refreshing sense of humility.

ESPN2 But yesterday morning in
Michigan, it was the Fog that caused
the start of the race to be delayed by
about 30 minutes.

Once it lifted, they finally went
racing and spinning.

Jeff Gordon, who started on the
pole, was in position for a top five
before he was spun out by Matt Kenseth.

Gordon ends up in the saturated
frontstretch grass - stuck in the mud.

A late caution flag caused a
Green- White- Checker finish.

That proved to be no problem for
Kurt Busch.

He wins for the second time in 3
races and puts more distance between
himself and those chasing him for the
final spot in the Chase for the
Championship.
