			Stomping their feet to keep their toes from freezing, blowing into their hands to keep them warm, a group of College of Charleston students waited early Saturday morning for the vans that would take them to the nation's capital. They are about to be part of President-elect Barack Obama's inauguration.

A teenager had been gunned down near Mary Ford Elementary School. Tensions ran high. Johnson heard some young men in the crowd talking of going after a person they thought was responsible for Parris Green's slaying. Johnson spread the message that it was better to let police handle the investigation, that vigilante justice wasn't the answer. It worked. Cooler heads prevailed. Let it snow!

Friday night, he took matters into his own hands. We're due for a great president WASHINGTON â€" Things have changed very little since I left here 20 years ago. The government is a mess. Politics is even messier. The only thing that kept us from running off the rails in the 1980s was a strong dollar, an evil enemy and a guy named Ronald Reagan. Love him or hate him, he was a charismatic president in the right place at the right time.

			CLEMSON â€" It's easy to say the No. 10 Clemson Tigers on Saturday were colder than the wintry wall of icicles on nearby Issaqueena Falls. But No. 2 Wake Forest caused this frozen frustration, not bad luck or weather. The Deacons won the Atlantic Coast Conference battle of unbeaten teams, 78-68, by holding Clemson to 33.8 percent shooting before a Littlejohn Coliseum sellout crowd of 10,000. And that was with the Tigers making strides after missing 30 of their first 39 shots.
		Cougars escape Upstate with another close victory GREENVILLE â€" The College of Charleston isn't playing particularly well right now, just well enough to win, and it's hard to argue with that. Two days after surviving 65-63 at Wofford, the Cougars sweated out a 78-71 victory at Furman on Saturday night at Timmons Arena "We were very fortunate at Wofford, and we come in here tonight and Poof! Second-half magic disappears for Bulldogs SPARTANBURG â€" Citadel basketball coach Ed Conroy said he couldn't have drawn it up any better. With his team down by two points at Wofford and the final seconds running out, Conroy chose not to call a timeout, and let his Bulldogs play. Cameron Wells drove the lane and whipped a pass to freshman lefty Cosmo Morabbi, wide open in the right corner. Gamecocks rally versus Vols, but deficit too big to erase KNOXVILLE, TENN. â€" South Carolina got precisely the sort of effort and intensity it needed Saturday to beat the preseason conference favorite on the road. One problem: It didn't come until midway through the second half. The Gamecocks turned a 19-point first-half deficit into a one-possession game in the final seconds, but Tennessee wiggled away with an 82-79 victory in front of 20,203 fans inside Thompson-Boling Arena.

			Circuit City has pulled the plug on its hopes for a turnaround. The ailing retailer, the nation's second-largest seller of consumer electronics, said Friday it will begin liquidating all of its 567 U.S. stores, sending as many as 34,000 workers to unemployment lines by March.

9:55 PM, 1/17/09, Update: Delta 4 blasts off on classified military mission

A heavy-lift Delta 4 rocket carrying a classified National Reconnaissance Office payload blasted off from the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station this evening, lighting up the night sky for dozens of miles around as it arced away to the East over the Atlantic Ocean.

Delayed twice earlier in the week by technical problems and bad weather, the 235-foot-tall three-core United Launch Alliance rocket roared to life at 9:47 p.m. - two hours and 14 minutes behind schedule because of unspecified problems - and majestically lumbered away from launch complex 37. It was the third launch of a Delta 4 "heavy" since 2004 and the first in 14 months.

Because the payload was classified, United Launch Alliance ended open commentary and provided no details on the climb to space following nose cone fairing jettison seven minutes or so after liftoff. The climb-out appeared normal, but without commentary the ultimate success of the mission could not be assessed.
