Mr. Flip always has felt a special affinity with Paul Newman. It could be because of his tremendous body of work or his appealing persona. But it's really because Mr. Flip often has been mistaken for him. (When the paper bag is off, of course.) Newman, who died Friday at 83, made what surely is one of the funniest sports-related movies ever, Slap Shot, and he also starred in other films with sports themes - Somebody Up There Likes Me (boxing), The Hustler and The Color of Money (pool) and Winning (auto racing)

Teachers and school administrators are poised to receive a 3 percent raise next year, after the signing of a tentative agreement between the Howard County Education Association and the school system.Howard's state rank in terms of teacher salaries won't be known until other counties have finished their negotiations.

The dream was always the same. She'd be skating on a pond, gliding gracefully in the moonlight, when she'd suddenly lift off and start flying. As she grew up, the dream got shelved in that place dreams go but never quite die, just sit waiting to be dusted off when the time is right. That time came decades later for Jean Hinlicky, when her 7-year-old son began taking figure-skating lessons. She watched from the sidelines for about six months, then couldn't stand it anymore. She had to be out there too. At 43, Hinlicky started taking classes with her son. After a few years, her son decided it was a girlie sport.

It began as an observation that inflamed academicians worldwide. It's morphed into a test case for experts in corporate damage control. Whether or not Harvard University president Lawrence Summers actually believes men are innately superior to women in math and the sciences, when he broached that politically incorrect possibility in a closed-door meeting last month, he sparked a controversy that triggered a near revolt on his faculty and left his job...

Bauer, who received a kidney transplant at the medical center three years ago, said at a gift-giving ceremony yesterday that he wanted the professorship to advance research and encourage organ donations. The teaching position is being named for his sister, Barbara Bauer Dunlop, who donated a kidney to him. "I can't think of a better way to honor my sister, who saved my life through her brave and unselfish act," said Bauer, whose transplant was performed by a team led by Dr. Stephen T. Bartlett.

Groundbreaking ceremonies always test the creativity of developers and academic institutions, among others, as they seek fitting ways to mark the construction of important buildings without resorting to the predictable lineup of dignitaries sticking shovels in the earth. A local developer once let a flock of homing pigeons fly from the upper windows of an old building he was renovating to show it would no longer be a pigeon coop. The Peabody Institute recently held a musical groundbreaking, with musicians in hard hats, to signal that it had started its $24 million expansion in Mount Vernon.
