BRIEFLY
dyne s oass warns
to visit space station
MOSCOW (AP) — Lance Bass of
the boy band ’N Sync is working to
finalize his contract for an autumn
flight with the Russian space
agency, Russian officials said
Monday.
Space agency spokesman
Vyacheslav Mikhailichenko said
Bass has “serious intentions” and
that they are negotiating terms of
the flight contract.
Bass has received clearance
from Russian space doctors for a
flight, and has been training at the
Star City cosmonauts center
outside Moscow. Mikhailichenko
said Bass has paid for his training,
but wouldn’t disclose the sum.
If Bass signs the contract, he’d
blast off for a weeklong mission to
the station along with Russian
Sergei Zaletin and European Space
Agency astronaut Frank DeWinne
of Belgium.
Neither the space agency nor
Bass has commented on financial
details of his bid. The world’s only
two space tourists both spent $20
million on weeklong trips.
Drug charges dropped
for‘optimistic’ Downey
INDIO, Calif. (AP) — Drug
charges against actor Robert
Downey Jr. were dismissed Friday
by a judge who also ended his
probation.
Riverside County Superior
Court Judge Randall D. White
made his ruling after determining
that Downey had stayed clean and
sober for 14 months.
Downey’s attorney Jim Epstein
said his client was “absolutely
ecstatic and very optimistic he’ll
be able to stay sober and get movie
parts again.”
Downey told the judge he was
serious about staying out of
trouble.
The actor was sentenced last
July to a year at a live-in
rehabilitation center and three
years probation after pleading no
coritest to cocaine possession and
being under the influence.
Deputy District Attorney Kevin
Shek had argued that Downey’s
probation be extended for six
more months while the charges
remained in place.
The judge denied that request.

“Crocodile Hunter. Collision
Course” isn’t an incredible piece
of cinema by any stretch of the
imagination. However, it does
have its tongue firmly planted in
its cheek, and if the audience can
do so as well, then they will have a
fun time enjoying a funny, and a
bit absurd, movie.
