Paulson TheAssociatedPress DENVER Theyhavepopular names like Dome Rock, Yo- semite, Rocky Mountain Na- tional Park and Joshua Tree, and they all have one prob- lem in common that sea- soned rock climbers call a "ticking time-bomb" — ag- ing climbing anchors. The anchors, drilled and pounded into the sides of mountains, are rusting and starting to fail, and some climbers and parks are try- ing to replace them. Funds, however, are sparse. Some of the anchors are made of iron and were in- stalled in the 1960s. Oth- ers hide dangerous secrets — they are bolted in rocks that have loosened because offreezingandthawing,and there are bolts that look new on the outside, but have rot- ten cores. Some bolts are so bad climbers can pull them out with their fingers. Experienced climbers often keep logs of danger- ous or failing equipment and share them with other climbers, but the informa- tion is often not available to other climbers. Bernadette Regan, a sea- soned climbing ranger at Joshua Tree National Park, about 140 miles east of Los Angeles, fell last yearwhen a bolt broke off while she was rappelling down a popular route called "Solid Gold," one of the park's more pop- ular routes. Her life was saved be- cause she didn't trust the bolt and had a backup rope that kept her from plunging 150 feet to the ground. "I was testing it, and jumped on a bolt and it broke," she said. The bolt was replaced a week later. Park officials held a "bolt- ing blitz" last month that brought in master bolters from around the U.S. to do some concentrated re-bolt- ing on ancient anchors. "TICKING TIME-BOMB" Ro ck c lim be rs l au nc h cam pa ig n to replace aging equipment 1814 The United States and Britain signed the Treaty of Ghent, which ended the War of 1812 following ratification by both the British Parliament and the U.S. Senate. 1851 Fire devastated the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C., de- stroying about 35,000 volumes. 1865 Several veterans of the Confederate Army formed a private social club in Pulaski, Ten- nessee, that was the original version of the Ku Klux Klan. 1914 During World War I, impromptu Christmas truces began to take hold along parts of the West- ern Front between British and German soldiers. 1955 The Continental Air De- fense Command Opera- tions Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado, found itself fielding phone calls from children wanting to know the whereabouts of Santa Claus a er a newspaper ad mistakenly gave the Center's number; the result was a tradition continued by the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) of tracking Santa's location the night before Christmas.

An agitated Madonna was in a Manhattan family court Wednesday, where a judged ruled in her favor and ordered her son Rocco to return to her in New York. Apparently, that's not going to make Rocco happy. He wants to live with his father. While some might won- der if Rocco's wishes are a statement on parent- ing skills, it could also be the case of a teen male wanting to be under the primary supervision of a male authority figure. — Bay Area News Group Star report B USINESS O PERATORS!
