This morning the House's team of
budget negotiators accused the Senate's
team of drawing a line in the sand and
refusing to compromise.

Senators paint delegates as the
obstructionists.

The two sides began budget talks
last week.

Negotiations appeared promising
at first....

Now sticking points include pay
raises for teachers, state aid for
mentally retarded Virginians and
prisoner re- entry programs.

The 60- day General Assembly

The bills limit Virginians to
five loans every six- months.

After that there's a 90- day
"lock out" period-- during which no
loans can be taken out.

Borrowers are given two pay
periods to pay back their loans....

If that's not enough, extended
payment plans are available.

Borrowers must take a 24- hour
cooling- off period in between loans
and interest is capped at 36- percent.

The bills are now in the hands of
Governor Tim Kaine.

and gusty northwesterly winds
developing. Some gusts could approach

tournament opened today in Greensboro
and it was cruel day for the team with
local ties.

Khadijah Whittington lost in overtime
to Clemson 65-to-60.

Whittington led the Pack as she has all
season long with 19 points and 16
rebounds, but the State players
admitted later they were looking ahead
to a rematch with Carolina and got
beat.

Boston College vs. Va. Tech Boston College did a great job on :00 the Hokies' Brittany Cook. The ACC's
leading scorer hit 50 percent of her
shots tonight, but the Eagles only let
her get 8 shots. Cook scored 10 points
and topped the 1000 point mark for her
career, but the Hokies can't win when
she only gets scores 10.

In fact, they were their own
worst enemy. This Laura Haskins bucket
was one of just 6 in the first half as
the Hokies shot 25 percent in the first
20 miniutes. *CG final Boston College

57 Andrea Barbour led the Hokies Virginia Tech with 13 points and then played much 47 better in the second half - but by then
it was too late. BC beat Tech
57-to-47.

N.C. State vs. Clemson We mentioned State's loss and
Khadijah Whittington's performance.
She certainly did all she could tonight
with another double-double.

But State went ice cold shooting
27 percent in the second half and just
21 percent in the overtime as Clemson
got its first tournament win since
2003.

and the Flames beat the Bulldogs
handily during the regular season, but
tonight's game was on Asheville's home
floor where the giant lives.

Kenny George is seven feet, seven
inches tall and he weighs 365 pounds.

He plays the game like most of us
used to play in the basement with a
nerf basketball. *CG final Liberty
