Reform Party talking
about Oprah Winfrey
CHICAGO (AP) — She is a mul
timillionaire talk-show host, actress
and — most re
cently — college
professor.
Now some Re
form Party mem
bers are talking
about President
Oprah Winfrey.
Party mem
bers from Min
nesota have cre-
and said “it won’t happen again.”
Judd, 31, called 911 Sept. 27
after discovering Dukes in her
rural home.
He left at her request and did not
touch her, police said.
Judd’s boyfriend, race car driver
Dario Franchitti, followed Dukes by
car into Franklin, where police cor
nered the suspect in a parking lot
and arrested him.

Police will ask to ban
Phish from campus
ated a Website to draft Winfrey for
the 2000 presidential race.
“It is Jesse Ventura times 100,"
Paul Larsen, chair of the draft com
mittee and a party leader from sub
urban Minneapolis, said.
“She’s got a thousand times as
much money, 100 times the name
recognition. She has a sterling rep
utation for honesty.”
The queen of talk is not inter
ested, a spokesperson said.
But Larsen said he is not giving
up and will ask Ventura, Minneso
ta’s governor and the nation’s high
est elected Reform Party official, to
help persuade her to run.
Ventura spokesperson Doug
Friedline said the whole situation
“has gotten kind of weird. ... It's al
most like we have celebrity-itis in
the Reform Party.”
AMES, Iowa (AP) — As far as the
chief of police is concerned, Phish
fans are welcome to stay away from
Ames — forever.
Chief Dennis Ballantine said
Monday that the city jail has been
filled with Phishheads, the devoted
followers of the music group, since
the band’s concert at Iowa State
University Friday night.
“If they never come back, it will
be too soon,” he said.
Ballantine said the lawless
ness and drug use outside the
concert was so appalling that he
will ask the university to ban Phish
from campus.
Sheriff’s deputies, police and
campus officers said they ar
rested 26 fans, most on drug
possession charges.
Man ordered to stay
away from Judd
Dr. Ruth signs on as
Internet broadcaster
FRANKLIN, Tenn. (AP) — A Ken
tucky man who got into Ashley
Judd’s house by posing as a police
officer has been ordered to stay
away from the actress.
“Once this order is entered, you
are to have no contact, you are not
to follow, stalk or harass Miss Judd
again," Judge Jeffrey Bivins told Guy
Dukes Monday.
Dukes, who was charged with
trespassing and impersonating a
police officer, was ordered to come
no closer than 100 feet to Judd and
her residence.
Dukes apologized for his actions
NEW YORK (AP) — Dr. Ruth
Westheimer usually answers the
questions, but next week the sex
therapist and talk-show host will
be asking the questions at the
Frankfurt Book Fair in Germany.
She has signed on as a cor
respondent with ForeignTV.com,
an Internet broadcaster. The New
York Times reported yesterday.
"I think being a foreign corre
spondent suits me because I
love to travel and learn about
new things," Westheimer said.
“What’s great about this medi
um is that I don't have to raise
hundreds of thousands of dol
lars and spend months filming
and editing.”
Electronic Arts has taken several
strides forward with its latest in
stallment of the Madden NFL series
but in some respects still goes
three-and-out.
The classic Madden gameplay
survives, featuring such oldies-but-
goodies as exhibition games, a
practice mode, player creation and
season play. Added for 2000 are an
all-new Madden trivia and skills
challenge, a superior play editor
and an expanded “dynasty” mode.
But the greatest change for 2000
is its vastly improved graphics en
gine. Gone are the days of generic
pixel creations. Now. linemen are
built like linemen, not wide re
ceivers. Tackles are bone-jarring.
Think Bobby Bouchet meets the
Quintin Coryatt hit, then mix in a
few brats and warm beer.
Despite the higher resolution,
the graphics still run faster than in
previous Madden games. A run
down the field no longer takes 20
seconds and change, making game-
play more exciting, and the mo
mentum of a game can literally
shift in seconds.
However, Madden 2000 has its
share of low points. There is no
defending the game’s defense.
Running the ball, once a major
challenge in Madden games, is a
joke. Even at the All-Pro level of
play, a 300-yard ground-pounding
is nothing to write home about,
and any multiplayer match quick
ly descends into a Texas Tech-
game highlight reel.
Madden 2000 is an improve
ment over past attempts, but EA’s
signature NFL console game still
needs some tweaking on the prac
tice field. (Grade: B)
