It may be time to enroll in a computer class. On-line flirting threatens marriage Dear Ann Landers: The letter from "Outmaneuvered in Arizona" hit close to home. He was the man whose wife began an affair over the computer. Six months ago, my wife, "Betsy," told me I had been neglecting her because of my long hours on the night shift. Thinking it would occupy her time, I showed Betsy how to use the on-line chat service.

Before long she was spending hours every night on the computer, chatting with men. Betsy told me not to be threatened. She even showed me some pornographic images sent to her by one of her new "friends." I asked why she would continue to talk to people who would send such kinky pictures. She insisted they were "nice guys" and it was all in fun. Two months ago, I found a computer message Betsy had saved.

She had told someone named "Bryan" that she was falling in love with him and was eager to meet him "in a neutral city" to find out if they were soul mates. When I confronted her, she said it was a joke. Then I found a message saying she was sending Bryan a video of her stripping. This shook me up and made me realize the fun and games had gone too far. I told Betsy the computer was destroying our marriage.

She said I was being ridiculous. Last week, I got on the day shift and hope this will help. Meanwhile, Betsy is still ANN LANtfERS on-line with Bryan, running up charges in excess of $300 per month. I need your help, Ann. Fresno Dear Fresno: I have been hearing a lot of late about on-line romances and have concluded that there are now hundreds of married men and women flirting with strangers in this manner.

You and your wife should seek joint counseling at once. Other married folks who are engaging in what appears to be a harmless pastime should be aware that they are playing with fire. Therapists have labeled this a genuine addiction. Dear Ann Landers: I'm writing about the woman who was upset when a man kissed her husband on the lips at a funeral. When she questioned him, he said they were both Masons and this was a Mason- ic custom.

I am a 32nd Degree Mason, a Knight of Templar and a Shriner. I have been a member since 1968 and can assure you that there is no kissing on the lips between any of my brothers. I have also been a member of the Elks Lodge since 1964 and am presently an officer of the Salem, 111., Lodge 1678. There is no kissing on the lips among my Elks brethren 'either. I hope the Lodge that guy belongs to will take a real good look at him.

in Salem, 01. Dear Salem: Before we judge "the guy" too harshly, let me tell you about something out of my own personal experience. I was going through the receiving line of a fancy reception. A gentleman whose identity I shall not reveal was in that line, greeting the guests. He leaned over to kiss me on the cheek, which he had done many times before since we were longtime friends.

I was not expecting such informality under the circumstances and turned my head to look at him. Lo and behold, the kiss caught me smack on the lips. His wife gave him a look that wilted his boutonniere and dried out niy corsage. So please don't be too hard on the fellows at the funeral. Write to Ann Landers at P.O.

Q9 IS CD -for TIA only Movie: "The Crazysitter" (1995) Movie: "Red Sun Rising" "Galaxis" Blood Out: Bound" After whale of a trip, movie star welcomed to new, bigger home Press NEWPORT, Ore. Enthralled 7,700 pounds of slippery, sea- mammal, thousands of fans turned out to welcome She unpaid star of "Free Willy" to a new home in captivity. In a scene that combined ele- Iments of a Beatles airport arrival land a Jacques Cousteau special, the jailing killer whale named Keiko Sunday at the Oregon Coast after a plane trip from a amusement park. Families, some chanting "Keiko, came from hundreds of grilles around to stand behind barri- ieades and greet the orca as he Arrived at a new home built for him jwjth $7 million in donations from ground the world. he has a big tank with just like they have in the wean," said 5-year-old Caitlin Waite of Beaverton.

went up from the crowd the whale was lowered gently ffijo the water and began slapping Ifis tail in the air and swimming in Ojrcles. Keiko's veterinarian, Lanny Cornell, pronounced the whale in £Ciod shape following his 20-hour Odyssey. vf I was thrilled to see him swim $ff and start eating and squealing," Cornell said. "He started eating iftthin five minutes of being in the jpeol." The whale, which has performed i fy the past 10 years in a small tank Mexico City's Reino Aventura Ijnusement park, made the trip tfihout any serious problems. Though flabby from life in his $giall pool, Keiko is about 2,000 jpMunds underweight.

He has a skin virus, a weakened (jiunune system and digestive (Problems. His teeth are bad from chewing on the sides of his pool. In the movie, the whale escaped his plight with the help of a troubled boy. The success of "Free Willy" focused attention on Keiko's poor living conditions, and Reino Aventura agreed to donate him to Earth Island Institute of San Francisco, which set up the Free Willy-Keiko Foundation. Warner which cast the whale to to star in the first "Free Willy" film in 1992, contributed $2 million to the effort and other contributions came from schoolchildren $30,000 alone from Northwest Elementary School in Tampa, United Parcel Service, touting its biggest delivery ever, arranged for a chartered C-130 cargo plane to carry Keiko in a giant, water-filled container.

Because of the cargo, the plane had to make two stops for refueling and a change of water. Keiko's new 2 million-gallon tank is four times the size of his old one and is filled with cold, purified sea water instead of warm salinated freshwater. He has a concrete beach and ah artificial reef, and will have a daily diet of 300 pounds of restaurant-quality fresh fish. His new owners hope to rehabilitate Keiko, who is about 16 or 17 years old, so he can someday be returned to the wild, just like the whale in the story of Willy. If that doesn't happen, there is talk of finding him a mate.

His arrival delighted Pam Lawson and her three children, who left Portland early Sunday and waited all day. "We've been following this story all along. We're fascinated by it," she said. "He's ill and he needs a special place like this." Orphanage Continued from Page 1 orphanage's wooden dormitory buildings, which date to the 1910s, well-heated and colorfully decorated with pictures of animals and cartoon figures. Children wearing bright clothes without patches or stains played with stuffed animals and blocks while music played from portable stereos.

Some children had obvious physical defects, but all appeared well-fed. Former orphanage director, Han Weicheng, strongly denied the report's allegations that he condoned starvation, beat and raped children, sent children who reported on him to mental institutions and embezzled foreign donations to the orphanage. Confronted with smuggled photographs, Han said, "It's impossible that such a situation existed while I was director." "I did a lot of things for the handicapped children," he added. "I never hurt them." The Chinese government has said its investigations have cleared the orphanage of wrongdoing. But when reporters tried to address the issues raised in the report, which focuses on the situation from 1988 to 1993, officials frequently dodged the questions, saying they had not read the report and could not respond.

Instead, officials portrayed Zhang the former orphanage staff doctor as a malcontent who lied about conditions about the orphanage to try to malign Han. Asked why Zhang, who left China last year and now lives overseas, would continue her campaign against the orphanage abroad, Han said, "If you want an explanation: she is crazy." Han and Shi Derong, director of the Shanghai Civil Affairs Bureau that oversees the orphanage, also suggested that Human Rights Watch had paid Zhang to move to the United States and to supply labricated information. Sidney Jones, executive director of Human Rights Watch-Asia, said Zhang was not paid for her work, although the organization helped her obtain a $5,000 living stipend from a foundation after she left China. "She neither sought nor received money for the information," Jones said from New York. On repeated questioning, Chinese officials admitted that in 1989 the orphanage's mortality rate rose to about 19 percent a figure that approximately agrees with the report's estimate of 22,2 percent.

They said it was the highest death rate ever at the orphanage, and blamed it on an exceptionally cold winter. Human Rights Watch-Asia agreed that conditions have improved at the orphanage, but said that was only because it has become a major source of babies for childless parents overseas. "The place lias been turned into a- kind of showcase to promote fore-; ign adoptions," Robin Munro, of Human Rights Watch's Hong Kong office, said by telephone Sunday. Munro said "cosmetic the orphanage were carried out in mid-1993, and previously, "it had been almost completely inaccessible." But the human rights group' says' new arrivals are transferred to remote institute where the same abuse, neglect and systematic star-" vation continues. No arrangements; were made to allow reporters to vis-" it that site.

"The high death rates, and the, deliberate neglect and starvation- have not ended. They have been shifted sideways to other Munro said Among those other facilities, said, is the so-called Shanghai- Number 2 Social Welfare Institute' on Chonming Island, which is mentioned in the critical Relations Ruling Continued from Page 1 Channel 4 executive Peter Salmon said he had no intention of canceling the program. "Channel 4 makes its own prog- raming decisions," Salmon said. "The Chinese government should stop trying to intimidate us." "Return to the Dying Rooms" is a sequel to a television documentary "The Dying Rooms" shown in Britain in June. "The Dying Rooms" alleged China's birth control program of one child to one family resulted in abandoned children, mostly girls or the disabled, being deliberately neglected and often left to die.

Two years ago, the Chinese reacted to a BBC news report on labor camps and an unflattering television documentary about Mao Tse-tung by jamming BBC World Service radio programs beamed to China. Continued from Page 1 The 9th Circuit court reversed that ruling. The appeals court said the Endangered Species Act implicitly exempts from NEPA "the secretary's decision to designate a habit for an endangered or threatened species." In the appeal acted on today, lawyers for Douglas County said six other federal appeals courts have issued decisions that conflict with the 9th Circuit court's interpretation of the Endangered Species Act, The appeal said that "thousands of agency decisions may now be vulnerable to NEPA avoidance" at least within the nine Western states that comprise the 9th Judicial Circuit. Clinton administration lawyers urged the justices to reject the county's appeal, They said the appeals court decision "offers no incentive to other agencies menting different statutory; schemes to seek to avoid pliance with NEPA," The nation's highest court concerned itself with the fate of the' spotted owl last June. It ruled the government can ban destruo' tion of the natural homes of endan-! gered or threatened species on pri-' vate property.
