[0:02] The search is on for the cause of Argent

[0:05] Argentina's worst air disaster.

[0:09] Violence continues in East Teour

[0:11] following the independence referendum

[0:15] and prescription rolin. Are some

[0:17] Americans over medicating their

[0:19] children?

[0:26] From CNN in Washington, this is World

[0:29] View. I'm Bernard Shaw. Julie Woodruff

[0:32] is off. We begin in the Middle East

[0:35] where the Israelis and Palestinians

[0:36] appear ever so close to reviving that Y

[0:40] River accord. Officials on both sides

[0:42] huddled hour after hour Wednesday in a

[0:44] bid to overcome lastminute snags on the

[0:46] interim deal. The goal, a one-year

[0:49] deadline for ending decades of

[0:51] hostility. Officials are racing against

[0:53] the clock to reach agreement hours

[0:55] before US Secretary of State Maline

[0:57] Albbright arrives in the region. CNN's

[1:00] Gerald Kessle is in Jerusalem with the

[1:02] very latest on the talks. Gerald

[1:05] Bernie, ever so close to reaching that

[1:07] agreement and I'm afraid it seems as if

[1:09] they're losing that race against the

[1:11] clock, at least the way that's being

[1:12] projected to us after a 4-hour meeting

[1:15] of the Israeli security cabinet here in

[1:17] Jerusalem this evening, which ended

[1:19] about a half an hour ago. And what we

[1:21] have from it is source, Israeli sources

[1:23] telling us that Prime Minister Aud Barak

[1:25] ended that meeting on a very downbeat

[1:27] note and a very pessimistic approach. He

[1:29] said it seems that the his concluding

[1:31] words of that lengthy cabinet meeting

[1:34] according to the Israeli sources. It

[1:35] seems it looks like the Palestinians are

[1:38] opting for the old Y agreement, not for

[1:40] the revised Y agreement which we've been

[1:42] negotiating. That was a Barack summing

[1:45] up this dayong more than 24 hours of

[1:48] negotiations which have gone to and fro

[1:50] uh from skepticism to pessimism to

[1:53] optimism to hope and now very much back

[1:56] to pessimism that there will be and

[1:58] whether there will be an agreement that

[1:59] can be signed in Cairo tomorrow. when we

[2:02] put that to the Israeli sources that if

[2:04] the Israelis were, as they put it,

[2:06] giving the Palestinians another 2 or 3

[2:08] days to come up with a better uh

[2:10] argument and better responses to their

[2:12] uh questions on how to uh bridge the

[2:15] gaps on the remaining issues,

[2:17] particularly the number of Palestinian

[2:19] security prisoners that should be

[2:20] released. The response from the Israeli

[2:22] sources was, "Yes, I think there won't

[2:25] be a signing ceremony in Alexandria

[2:27] tomorrow." That's the latest word from

[2:29] here in Jerusalem. a pessimistic

[2:31] overview after the Israeli security

[2:32] cabinet met and no further meetings

[2:35] planned. There were meetings planned

[2:37] late this evening. These have now not

[2:39] taken place and there are none as yet

[2:41] scheduled tomorrow. That doesn't mean

[2:43] they won't take place, but as of this

[2:44] moment, it seems as if they have not

[2:46] bridged the differences and there will

[2:48] be no signing ceremony in Alexandria

[2:50] tomorrow. That's the latest from here in

[2:52] Jerusalem. Bernie

[2:54] >> Gerald with that breaking news

[2:55] development. Is this an embarrassing

[2:57] setback for US Secretary of State Maline

[3:00] Albbright?

[3:02] >> It's certainly a major complication. The

[3:04] Americans had taken the the approach

[3:06] that they didn't want to Mrs. Albbright

[3:08] to come here and to try to mend the

[3:10] fences and to bridge the gaps on this

[3:12] issue of implementing the long

[3:14] unfulfilled river accord. She wanted to

[3:17] come here with the accord a done deal on

[3:20] how to implement it so that she could go

[3:22] on to the broader issues of how to

[3:24] pushing how to push Middle East the

[3:26] Middle East peace process forward in a

[3:28] big way both on the Syrian Israeli track

[3:30] and to step up a gear of the Palestinian

[3:33] Israeli peace peace process to push it

[3:36] towards the final status negotiations.

[3:38] Now it appears Mrs. Thorbright might

[3:40] have to deal with this very issue that

[3:42] should try to avoid the issue of

[3:45] implementing the wire river accord. It

[3:47] is a problem for the Americans as they

[3:49] come into the into the arena again.

[3:51] Bernie

[3:51] >> Gerald Kessle with the very latest from

[3:53] Jerusalem. Thanks very much. Now to

[3:56] South America. A search for bodies and

[3:58] clues is underway in Argentina a day

[4:01] after the fiery crash of an Argentine

[4:03] jetliner. At least 64 people were

[4:06] killed. CNN's Harris Whitak reports.

[4:11] Anxious relatives crowded a Buenosidis

[4:13] hospital waiting for news of those who

[4:15] were on the Lapa Airlines Boeing 737. At

[4:18] the crash site nearby, emergency workers

[4:21] continued looking for bodies among the

[4:23] pieces of broken fuselage that were

[4:24] scattered around a Gulf driving range.

[4:27] The plane, which several witnesses said

[4:29] appeared to lose an engine as it was

[4:31] taking off from the Buenos Iris domestic

[4:33] airport Tuesday night, overshot a runway

[4:35] and plowed through cars and trucks on a

[4:37] busy highway.

[4:39] This taxi driver was close enough to see

[4:41] it happen.

[4:44] The plane flew low over a fence. He says

[4:46] it crashed into the golf course and

[4:48] exploded in flames. The Argentine

[4:50] Minister of the Interior said the crash

[4:52] is one of the most tragic in the history

[4:54] of Argentine aviation. An investigation

[4:57] has already been launched to find out

[4:59] why the 737 failed to take off. The

[5:02] effects of the crash were exacerbated

[5:04] because it happened at an airport that

[5:06] sits right in the middle of Buenocidis.

[5:08] Politicians have renewed calls for the

[5:10] airport to be moved to another location.

[5:14] This senator says that common sense

[5:16] indicates that the airport should be

[5:17] moved away from populated areas.

[5:20] Meanwhile, aviation authorities

[5:21] concentrate on trying to find out what

[5:24] happened.

[5:27] Airline officials have not wanted to

[5:29] speculate on the causes of the accident.

[5:32] They have however retrieved the cockpit

[5:34] voice recorder or blackbox and have

[5:36] started uh analyzing the information

[5:39] contained in that device. We also have

[5:41] information that officials from the

[5:42] Boeing aircraft company are uh on their

[5:45] way or in Buenosirus and when and will

[5:47] be on the scene to conduct their own

[5:49] investigation into this accident.

[5:51] Reporting live from Buenocidis, this is

[5:53] Harris with Beck, CNN.

[5:56] A charter plane carrying 12 people

[5:58] crashed in a mountain slope in Tanzania

[6:00] during bad weather Wednesday. The plane

[6:02] was flying from a national park to an

[6:04] airport near Mount Kilamanjaro. 10

[6:06] American tourists were aboard among

[6:09] those aboard and there is no official

[6:11] word on survivors.

[6:14] There was word Wednesday of an incident

[6:16] of air rage in the skies of a Canada. An

[6:19] unruly passenger forced a Canadian

[6:21] jetliner to make an emergency landing on

[6:23] Sunday after getting into an argument

[6:25] with the passengers and crew. It

[6:27] happened over Manitoba province. The

[6:29] plane with 340 passengers on board was

[6:32] on a flight from Calgary to Amsterdam.

[6:35] The Dutch passenger charged in the

[6:37] incident faces a maximum sentence of

[6:39] life in prison.

[6:41] In Canada, hundreds of relatives

[6:43] gathered in Nova Scotia Wednesday for a

[6:45] somber remembrance of the crash of Swiss

[6:47] Air Flight 111. They were joined by

[6:49] rescue crews who had searched in vain

[6:52] for survivors. Ceremonies included

[6:54] burials of some unidentified remains.

[6:57] All 229 people on board the jet liner

[7:00] were killed when it crashed off Nova

[7:01] Scotia last year. The cause still not

[7:04] known.

[7:06] United Nations Secretary General Kofi

[7:08] Anan is warning Indonesian authorities

[7:11] to reign in armed militias in East Ste

[7:13] following the worst outbreak of violence

[7:15] since Monday's referendum on self-ruule.

[7:18] Here's CNN Jakarta Bureau Chief Maria

[7:20] Rea.

[7:22] >> It's the warning sign telling people an

[7:25] attack is coming. Many fled to this

[7:27] school near the UN headquarters. Most

[7:29] from a nearby pro-independence

[7:31] neighborhood attacked earlier by pro-

[7:33] Indonesian militia.

[7:35] They started shooting and burning

[7:37] houses, says this woman. Another said,

[7:39] "We're afraid to die. That's why we ran

[7:41] here." Then the militia came.

[7:45] Pro-independent supporters shouted

[7:46] insults. This man yelling, "If you're

[7:48] really brave, put down your guns."

[7:51] Another dropped his pants, taunting the

[7:53] armed militia men. Then the clash. Two

[7:56] armed militia groups joined forces

[7:58] against the pro-independence men.

[8:00] Journalists became targets,

[8:04] shooting for nearly an hour that pushed

[8:06] about 200 refugees and journalists into

[8:09] the UN headquarters. Soldiers in the

[8:11] military station nearby shut the gates.

[8:14] No photos or I will beat you. One yells.

[8:18] After more than an hour, the police

[8:19] finally came.

[8:22] At least one man, a pro-independent

[8:24] supporter, was killed, allegedly shot by

[8:27] soldiers. As this week has shown, not

[8:29] even UN workers are safe. One staff

[8:32] member was killed Monday. Two others are

[8:34] missing. This latest violence came as

[8:36] counting of the ballots from Monday's

[8:38] historic vote began. Nearly 99% of

[8:41] registered voters cast ballots in the

[8:43] referendum, but now the pro-Indones

[8:45] group claims the vote wasn't fair.

[8:48] Eastor has long been caught in a cycle

[8:50] of violence, neighborhood gang wars

[8:52] fueled by very real political issues.

[8:54] Still, now that the ballot count is

[8:56] underway, there are questions of whether

[8:58] or not the results will be accepted by

[9:01] both sides. Maria Ras, CNN, Dilly East

[9:04] Timmore.

[9:06] >> The mayor of Moscow says those who set

[9:08] off a bomb near the Kremlin should be

[9:10] shot. Police have stepped up security

[9:12] one day after Tuesday's blast in a

[9:14] shopping mall. Officials are

[9:16] investigating a littleknown

[9:17] anti-consumer group that claimed

[9:19] responsibility, but they have not ruled

[9:21] out organized crime or political

[9:23] motives. The mall was crowded with

[9:25] shoppers when the blast occurred,

[9:27] injuring at least 41 people.

[9:30] Moscow issued a strong response

[9:32] Wednesday to reports linking Russian

[9:33] mobsters and senior government officials

[9:35] to a multi-billion dollar money

[9:37] laundering scheme. CNN's Steve Harrian

[9:40] has more.

[9:42] It's not just Russian mobsters who were

[9:45] named in media reports about a possible

[9:47] multi-billion dollar moneyaundering

[9:49] scandal, but key figures around Boris

[9:52] Yelen, some of the so-called young

[9:54] reformers.

[9:57] Any reports about foreign bank accounts

[9:59] belonging to me or my relatives are

[10:02] lies. It's simply not true.

[10:05] The head of Russia's central bank says

[10:07] no loans from the International Monetary

[10:09] Fund were misused. And in its first

[10:12] official reaction, the Kremlin says the

[10:15] corruption allegations are an attempt to

[10:17] smear Russia.

[10:20] >> This is the policy of certain circles

[10:22] which do not want our country to assert

[10:24] its role as a great world power, which

[10:27] do not want Russia to overcome the

[10:29] problems we face today. So far, a story

[10:33] that's front page news in the West has

[10:35] largely been ignored by the Russian

[10:37] media. The reason, some analysts say, is

[10:40] a gap in how Russia's politicians are

[10:43] perceived at home and abroad. the

[10:46] information about uh the corruption in

[10:49] the Russian government what was not

[10:51] widely spread in the west media. There

[10:54] was still a feeling there that there are

[10:57] good democrats and bad communists which

[11:00] does not really accurately describe the

[11:03] situation uh inside Russia because those

[11:06] who were regarded as the democrats

[11:10] uh in the west were regarded as crews

[11:13] mostly here in Russia.

[11:17] There are other reasons for the lukewarm

[11:19] response to the scandal at home. First,

[11:22] exactly what money laundering is is not

[11:25] widely understood among a population

[11:27] where few have bank accounts.

[11:31] >> I keep my money in the kitchen under a

[11:33] dish. Others are simply tired of hearing

[11:36] about corruption in high places.

[11:40] >> I try not to think about it. You sleep

[11:42] better if you don't. Steve Harrian, CNN,

[11:46] Moscow.

[11:48] Clinton administration officials saying

[11:50] the United States is all but certain to

[11:52] support the next installment of

[11:53] International Monetary Fund loans to

[11:55] Russia. They say there's no evidence IMF

[11:58] funds were part of the moneyaundering

[12:00] charges. A group of professional

[12:03] baseball umpires is mounting a lastditch

[12:05] effort to save their jobs. Negotiations

[12:08] between baseball owners and umpires

[12:10] continue under the supervision of a

[12:12] federal judge in Philadelphia. 22 major

[12:14] league officials are set to be dismissed

[12:16] Thursday. The action stems from a failed

[12:19] mass resignation strategy to protest the

[12:21] league's evaluation process.

[15:16] United States President Bill Clinton has

[15:18] declared a disaster area in California

[15:21] where wildfires have ravaged acres of

[15:23] brush and forest. More than 10,000

[15:26] firefighters are tackling seasonal

[15:27] blazes in Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Utah,

[15:30] as well as California. Firefighters hope

[15:33] cooler weather can help them get the

[15:34] fires under control.

[15:37] Let's go to San Bernardino County in

[15:39] Southern California for more with Jim

[15:41] Hill. Jen.

[15:44] >> Well, Bernie, I am in the small resort

[15:45] town of Fawnkin in the San Bernardino

[15:48] Mountains. As you can see behind me,

[15:49] it's literally in the shadow of the big

[15:51] fire here. That fire is actually miles

[15:54] away and not burning toward the town.

[15:56] However, firefighters are handing out

[15:58] detailed maps and written updates to

[16:01] residents here to keep them posted, and

[16:03] they are, of course, very nervous. Now,

[16:05] there are 2300 firefighters battling

[16:08] this fire along with two dozen aircraft.

[16:11] That includes the water dropping

[16:13] helicopters uh that actually get their

[16:15] water out of the lake near Fawnskin

[16:18] and also uh nearly 20 air tankers

[16:21] dropping the fire retardant chemicals on

[16:23] the blaze. Now, this fire has raised

[16:25] over 53,000 acres so far since it

[16:28] started on Saturday. The toll at this

[16:31] point is some 30 structures burned. A

[16:34] dozen of those, we're told. About 12 are

[16:36] believed to have been homes, but it's

[16:38] not always easy to tell when you look at

[16:40] the ruins in every case. Now, this is

[16:42] the biggest fire working in Southern

[16:44] California. And although firefighters

[16:46] are are very very busy, as you point

[16:49] out, in other states, firefighters say

[16:51] this particular blaze is their number

[16:53] one priority, though they can give no

[16:55] estimate now on when it might be

[16:57] contained or controlled. I'm Jim Hill

[17:00] reporting live from Fonskin, California.

[17:03] >> Thank you, Jim. The coast was anything

[17:05] but clear along North Carolina's Outer

[17:07] Banks Wednesday. Once a hurricane, now a

[17:10] tropical storm with 60 mph winds, Dennis

[17:12] returned to Hatteris Island, cutting it

[17:14] in half with 14 ft waves and stranding

[17:17] some 5,000 people who defied orders to

[17:20] evacuate. The storm is drifting west at

[17:22] 5 m an hour about 100 miles from Cape

[17:25] Hatteris. Forecasters are saying the

[17:27] storm will probably linger off the coast

[17:29] for days, putting a damper on the start

[17:31] of the Labor Day weekend. Rough surf and

[17:34] rip tides from Dennis has closed beaches

[17:36] to swimmers as far north as Cape Cod,

[17:38] Massachusetts. President Clinton has

[17:40] issued disaster declarations for areas

[17:42] of North Carolina due to this storm. In

[17:46] Japan Wednesday, nearly 6 million people

[17:48] participated in mock earthquake response

[17:50] drills. Parents placed whailing toddlers

[17:54] dressed in protective pads into

[17:55] earthquake simulators to experience what

[17:58] a major quake feels like. This year's

[18:00] National Disaster Prevention Day gained

[18:02] added importance after the devastation

[18:04] caused by that earthquake in Turkey.

[18:07] Iraq has announced it's planning to

[18:09] donate $10 million worth of oil to its

[18:13] under the plan Turkey would use the oil

[18:15] to pay for relief supplies. Iraqi

[21:17] Art is life and people have to see

[21:19] themselves in that and have compassion

[21:21] for that. Art is whatever is

[21:24] aesthetically moving. I use in the

[21:27] common ordinary phrase the wo factor and

[21:31] then proximal millennium.

[21:32] >> In the next millennium, the artist and

[21:35] humanity in general will be more

[21:37] conscious precisely of the fact that art

[21:39] transcends time.

[21:44] What won't change is that art comes from

[21:48] and stems from previous art. And there

[21:51] really isn't much that's new under the

[21:54] sun. I see uh more and more people

[21:56] turning from the mainstream established

[22:00] processes of art and wanting to find

[22:03] alternatives and this is one of the

[22:04] alternatives.

[22:06] It's more collaboration, more projects

[22:08] that involve the community and um

[22:11] building community and strength through

[22:13] the arts.

[22:14] >> New technologies certainly will come up.

[22:16] Art on the internet, art made

[22:19] electronically, art digitally

[22:22] manipulated. I don't think there's any

[22:24] rule that tells us it should go in any

[22:26] one direction.

[22:27] >> How the artists make art will determine

[22:30] how people consider art to be.

[27:40] It is a commonly diagnosed condition of

[27:43] childhood. attention deficit

[27:45] hyperactivity disorder, but a recent

[27:47] study finds it may be misdiagnosed.

[27:50] Here's CNN medical correspondent Dr.

[27:52] Steve Salvatore.

[27:54] Nearly 6% of the school age population

[27:57] in the United States have been diagnosed

[27:59] with attention deficit hyperactivity

[28:01] disorder or ADHD, a condition which is

[28:04] characterized by difficulties in paying

[28:06] attention, sitting still, and impulsive

[28:09] behavior. About 90% of patients with

[28:12] ADHD take the drug rolin. Ritalin is a

[28:16] mild central nervous system stimulant.

[28:18] It boosts the brain's ability to control

[28:20] impulsive behavior and helps children

[28:23] concentrate better. Once on the drug,

[28:25] children with ADHD usually perform

[28:28] better in school and relate better to

[28:30] family and friends. But some child care

[28:33] experts believe there are problems

[28:34] associated with this drug. Dr. Maryanne

[28:37] Block is the author of No More Rolin.

[28:40] She refers to rolin as kitty cocaine and

[28:43] contends it can cause dangerous

[28:44] behavior.

[28:45] >> These drugs are mindaltering drugs. And

[28:48] in the case of rolin, it's a drug that's

[28:52] almost identical to cocaine. Goes to the

[28:54] same receptor site in the brain. Causes

[28:57] the same high when taken in the same

[28:59] manner.

[29:00] >> But doctors who prescribe rolin say it's

[29:02] safe when taken under close supervision.

[29:05] They say the medicine does not have

[29:06] long-term effects even when started at a

[29:09] very young age.

[29:10] >> After 60 years of using stimulants in

[29:14] children and 40 years of using rolin, I

[29:17] think we have a pretty good track record

[29:19] of safety in children. Because rolin is

[29:22] a stimulant, the American Heart

[29:23] Association has recommended children be

[29:25] evaluated for heart problems before

[29:27] starting the medication. ADHD should not

[29:30] be diagnosed without a thorough medical,

[29:32] behavioral, and educational evaluation.

[29:35] Doctors should also be aware of other

[29:37] drugs that might interfere with rolin.
