2	The Iraqi government blames the embargo for the malnutrition, infant mortality and other hardships.
2	The sanctions cannot be lifted until U.N. inspectors certify that Iraq has eliminated its weapons of mass destruction and the means to produce them.
2	Iraq says it has done so and has barred inspectors since late 1998.
2	At least one other congressman has visited Iraq.
2	Energy Secretary Bill Richardson went to Baghdad in 1995 while a representative for New Mexico.
2	Hall, an Ohio Democrat and one of very few U.S. congressmen to visit Iraq since the 1991 Gulf War over Kuwait, is scheduled to embark Sunday the 12-hour overland trip to the Iraqi capital, Baghdad.
2	He did not speak to reporters in Jordan, but he told The Associated Press before leaving the United States that he hopes to "separate the humanitarian work from the political issues."

1	During his four days in Iraq, Hall said he wanted to investigate reports from relief agencies that a quarter of Iraqi children may be suffering from chronic malnutrition.
2	U.S. Representative Tony Hall arrived in Jordan on Saturday en route to Iraq, where he is expected to look into the plight of Iraqis after nearly 10 years of U.N. trade sanctions.
2	He said he would pay particular attention to what happens to food and medicine entering the country under the U.N. oil-for-food program.
2	If supplies are not reaching the people who need them, Hall said, he wanted to find out whether the United Nations or relief agencies needed to handle things differently, or whether "Iraq needs to get out of the way and let us do the job."
2	Ohio Congressman Arrives in Jordan
2	A U.S. lawmaker assessing the impact of U.N. sanctions on Iraq said Wednesday it is important not only to force Baghdad to give up its weapons of mass destruction but also to do more to ease the hardships on ordinary Iraqis.
2	The U.S. government says it wants to ensure that Iraq is not buying items that appear to be humanitarian in nature but that could be used for making weapons.
2	Rep. Tony Hall, D-Ohio, did not call for a lifting of sanctions imposed on Iraq for its 1990 invasion of Kuwait, but said the United Nations should make sure that sanctions do not hurt innocent Iraqis.

2	The United States cut virtually all military links with Indonesia in 1999 after its forces were implicated in the violence that swept East Timor after that territory voted for independence.
2	On Thursday, Powell and representatives of the nations of the Asian group, including Indonesia, are expected to sign a declaration promising cooperation to prevent terrorism by sharing information, blocking funds, tightening borders and making it hard to use forged travel papers.
2	"We recognized that terrorism is a global threat and that the disturbing acts of terrorism and transnational crimes, which continue to threaten world peace and stability, must be tackled by the international community,"
2	"We recognized that terrorism is a global threat and that the disturbing acts of terrorism and transnational crimes, which continue to threaten world peace and stability, must be tackled by the international community," the ministers said in a communique on Tuesday.
2	Powell is among the representatives from 13 nations outside Southeast Asia, including China, Japan and Russia, that are taking part in the annual meeting of the group's regional forum.
2	Terrorism dominates the agenda, though the possibility of a meeting here between Powell and his North Korean counterpart, Paek Nam Sun, has generated the most news.
2	It would be the highest-level contact between the United States and North Korea since President Bush took office.
2	Powell heads to Indonesia's capital, Jakarta, late on Thursday before finishing a weeklong trip through the region in the Philippines on Saturday.
2	The committee's action comes six months after federal prosecutors ended a lengthy criminal investigation into Torricelli's activities without filing criminal charges.
2	He said that when he arrives in Jakarta, he will have "some ideas and some initiatives" to present to President Megawati Sukarnoputri.
2	"some ideas and some initiatives"
2	At the same time, the Pentagon is reviewing how to allocate another $17 million in "counterterrorism fellowships," some of which could go to Indonesia.
2	"counterterrorism fellowships,"
2	But a senior State Department official also acknowledged that some in the administration and Congress are pushing for more direct military cooperation, which would require congressional approval.

2	"I think they recognize the danger that we all face and I think they have been cooperating more fully with us as time goes by, and I'm quite sure that Mrs. Megawati is committed to this cause," Powell said in Singapore.
2	He met there with Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong, who endorsed the idea of renewed military ties between the United States and Indonesia as an important step in stabilizing that country.
2	Powell contended that it was not inconsistent to want to foster cooperation even with an organization like the Indonesian military, which has a history of human rights abuses.
2	"If you get young officers, expose them to a military organization that is within a democratic political institution, such as the United States, then that rubs off on them,"
2	"If you get young officers, expose them to a military organization that is within a democratic political institution, such as the United States, then that rubs off on them," he said.
2	In Malaysia, Powell met with Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, who has led the country since 1981.
2	The ethics panel, to which evidence from the criminal case was forwarded, concluded its review just as Torricelli is gearing up his campaign for re-election against the Republican candidate, Douglas R. Forrester.
2	His brief stop in Malaysia also highlighted the moral ambiguities of the effort to prevent terrorism and its emphasis on cooperation with governments that the United States has often criticized.
2	The United States once distanced itself from Mahathir for strong-arm tactics with political rivals, and human rights groups criticize him for arresting and jailing scores of suspected militants, including some who may be linked to al-Qaida, without trial.

2	The assistant secretary of state for East Asian and Pacific affairs, James Kelly, met on Tuesday morning with Anwar's wife, Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, for what she later told Malaysian reporters was a discussion about both the detention of her husband and six supporters, and the campaign against terrorism.

2	Microsoft plans to announce on Wednesday a partnership with AT&T Wireless Services to offer software for wireless devices and services, a person close to the talks said Tuesday night.
2	The deal would be part of Microsoft's drive to sign up wireless carriers to use its so-called smart phone software -- a pared-down version of the Windows operating system -- and services that Microsoft is developing as part of its .Net Internet strategy.
2	Neither Microsoft nor AT&T Wireless would comment.
2	The main market for the Microsoft-AT&T partnership is expected to be business customers.
2	Microsoft's efforts to persuade wireless carriers to use its cell phone operating system have struggled.
2	It has run into particular opposition from companies aligned with Nokia, which has developed a competing software.
2	But Microsoft's potential advantage, analysts say, is its ability to link its cell phone software to its desktop PC software, a Microsoft stronghold.
2	After months in which polls showed Torricelli well ahead of his relatively unknown Republican rival, the contest has narrowed in recent weeks.
2	Customers who want access to Microsoft desktop e-mail, documents and calendar information may prefer Microsoft's wireless technology.
2	Less than three weeks after outfielder Cliff Floyd was imported to Montreal to play a pivotal part in the Expos' playoff plans, he was traded to Boston Tuesday night to try his hand in what the Red Sox hope will be their postseason plans.
2	Floyd did not produce the kind of offense the Expos expected from him, so Omar Minaya, the Expos' aggressive rookie general manager, turned around and sent him to the Red Sox in exchange two South Korean pitchers and a player yet to be named.
2	The teams made the deal less than 24 hours before Tuesday's 4 p.m.
2	deadline for making trades without first getting waivers on players.
2	Minaya obtained Floyd from the Florida Marlins on July 11, only two weeks after he stunned baseball by acquiring Bartolo Colon from Cleveland.
2	Colon has won four of five decisions for the Expos, but Floyd batted only .208 for them while hitting three home runs, including one Tuesday night, and driving in four runs.
2	The Expos, who had a 46-41 record when they made their first Floyd deal, had only a 7-12 record with him on the team, dropping from 9 1/2 games behind Atlanta in the National League East to as many as 16 games back.
2	It was the first time that the Senate Ethics Committee had voted to take action against a senator since 1995, when it recommended that Bob Packwood, an Oregon Republican, be expelled on the ground of sexual and official misconduct.
2	Floyd can be a free agent after this season, and Minaya decided it would be more prudent to trade him and get value in return than have to settle for a draft choice or two as compensation when he signed with another team as a free agent.
2	The Expos acquired Sun Woo-kim and Seung Jun-song.
2	Kim, 24, is a right-handed pitcher from Seoul.
2	The Red Sox signed him in 1997.
2	Song is a 22-year-old right-hander from Pusan.
2	The Red Sox signed him in 1999.
2	The Red Sox wanted to bolster their offense.
2	They led the Yankees for most of the first three months of the season but then slipped behind them in the American League East.
2	Earlier in the day Tuesday, one member of the Red Sox organization was not sure they would be able to get Floyd.
2	"I don't know that he's that serious about moving him,"
2	"I don't know that he's that serious about moving him," the person said of Minaya.
3	But as the day wore on, the Red Sox tried harder and by Tuesday night were able to get the player they wanted for their lineup.
2	With the barrage of crack cocaine-connected killings in the 1980s came the realization that young people were too often full-fledged players in the violence.
2	That was more evident here than in any other city, said George Starke, who after his career as an offensive tackle with the Washington Redskins from 1973 to 1984 stuck around and decided to make this place more than his home.
1	"There was death in D.C. throughout the '80s and into the '90s, and there was death everywhere,"
2	"It wasn't like New York's or Boston's organized crime.
1	It was kids shooting kids.
2	And from the beginning I could see that it was all about jobs.
2	I could see that you needed the private sector involved."
2	Starke could see that in many instances these were cases of lost dignity.
2	"I had a young man come up to me three years ago and say, 'Mr. Starke, I'm tired of going to bed at night with a Tech-9 gun under my pillow."
1	"I had a young man come up to me three years ago and say, 'Mr. Starke, I'm tired of going to bed at night with a Tech-9 gun under my pillow."'
2	Packwood later resigned.
1	And Starke was tired of seeing Washington and its young people suffer a black eye.
2	So, after six years of planning, he opened the Excel Institute Automotive Program, a two-year school that gives people a chance at a new life as an auto technician or in another job related to the field.
3	The program is being copied by other cities and has attracted students from all walks of life, ages 16 to 68.
2	Students learn automotive intricacies and can earn a a high school equivalency diploma.
3	Starke, 54, played in two Super Bowls and won one.
2	He played for George Allen, Jack Pardee and Joe Gibbs.
2	In 1973, he was young enough to be a part of the Redskins' Over the Hill Gang, and in 1981 he was old enough to be one of the team's original Hogs.
2	He was recently named one of the 70 greatest Redskins.
2	He earned a physics degree from Columbia, became a Redskin, studied drama, worked in sports broadcasting, opened a Washington restaurant and built his own home here when he thought he might become a developer, "just so I could know how the business worked from the ground up," he said.
