Good evening, I'm Teresa Hamilton.
Fire officials in Roanoke are reopening their investigation into a blaze that killed four children and their grandmother.

[SUPER=03-Roanoke/January 1996;]

Fire investigators originally determined the blaze was caused by an overheated extension cord plugged into a space heater -- now they're taking a second look at the evidence after lawyers for one of the companies in the case said they were preparing to aruge the fire was deliberately set.
Patricia Leftwich Beckner recently reached a two-point-four million dollar settlement with the companies she blamed for the death of her children and her mother.
Beckner's attorney, Tony Anderson, says regardless of what happens, the settlement would NOT be affected.

The man leading the investigation of EgyptAir flight 990 toured the crash site today boarding three of the ships in the armada enlisted in the hunt for clues.

(NATS - HALL SPEAKING TO SAILORS ON GRAPPLE)

But despite another day of good weather and an intensified search using two underwater robots -- EgyptAirs cockpit voice recorder is still missing -- the most crucial piece of flight 990s desperate puzzle.

SOT/GREG PHILLIPS, NTSB
16:44:29 Its vital that we get the cockpit voice recorder, we need every bit of information we can get.
NARR:
The flight data recorder showed that after the Boeing 767 went into a steep, but controlled dive, someone in the cockpit deliberately shut down both engines.
Hearing what went on is investigators best hope of finding out why.

Analysts will travel to Boeing field in Seattle next week to run a simulation of the final moments of the flight, but from the data alone, most aviation experts seem baffled.

SOT/ED CRAWLEY, MIT
1:12:52 As far as we can tell, the pilots were intentionally or deliberately flying the airplane through this flight path. This is very unusual, and really, the mystery is what would have made the pilots do this.
NARR:
While the NTSB still says it cant rule out a mechanical or structural failure, what's troubling investigators is that human error or even a criminal act now seem at least to be more plausible scenarios.
And with more bad weather moving in Sunday night the search for the second black box is expected to be put on hold again.

[SUPER=03-Ferrum/Wesley vs Ferrum;]

Coach Dave Davis was probably wondering if Ferrum would get on the board. Penalties negated two Ferrum touchdowns.
The Panthers miss another opportunity with this fumble deep in Wesley territory the Wolverines recover and get extra yards when Damien Nottingham pitches to Andre Summers.
[super=36-Wesley State/7/Ferrum/9;]

But Ferrum's sophomore QB Phil Hairston rushed for a career high 196 yards and the Panthers beat Wesley State on three field goals nine to seven.
