As a result of the rain, there were several collisions in the northbound lanes of Interstate 5 that caused miles of backed up traffic throughout the afternoon in north Lewis County and south Thurston County. The initial wreck was in the northbound lanes at milepost 88. A semi-truck hauling a tanker full of lubricating oil crashed off the side of the freeway at about 8 a.m. near Grand Mound, according to the Washington State

While the oil did not spill, one lane of the freeway was blocked for several hours while the oil was pumped into another tanker. The blocked lane caused a 6-mile backup into the Centra- lia area, said Trooper Will Finn, spokesman for the Washington State Patrol.

College Football NBA Lamar COUGS READY FOR Odom to Lose Driver’s License After DUI Arrest AUBURN By Richard Winton and Kate Mather Los Angeles Times LOS ANGELES — Veter- an NBA player Lamar Odom, arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence Friday morning, will see his driver’s license suspended for a year because he refused to submit to chemical testing at a police station. California Highway Pa- trol Officer Leland Tang said Odom was unable to complete a field sobriety test, and once at the station he refused chemical tests to determine his level of alleged intoxica- tion. Drivers suspected of DUI may refuse to take tests in the field, but once they are at a police station, they are required to take a chemical test.

By Kate Linthicum Los Angeles Times BUENOS AIRES, Argentina – They call the slums villas mise- rias, or little cities of misery. In- stead of names, most have been assigned numbers by the Argen- tine government. Father Carlos Olivero lives in a small concrete church in the middle of Villa 21- 24. On a recent gray afternoon, he sat sipping yerba mate in a cold meeting room at the drug rehabilitation center he runs nearby. He was in a contempla- tive mood. A young addict he knew had died the day before. “He was 24 years old,” Oli- vero said. “We all loved him.
