3/23/99 - IBM AND NOKIA CREATE NEW WAP SYSTEM

MAR 23, 1999, M2 Communications - IBM and Nokia have previewed a wireless application protocol (WAP) system that allows
users of WAP-based phones, such as the Nokia 7110 mobile phone, to access data from both Lotus Domino-hosted databases
and the Internet. The system, which is based on IBM's wireless Domino access technology from Lotus and Nokia's WAP server,
converts Domino-based data into a format that is suitable for the mobile phone, enabling users to access and retrieve applications
such as e-mail, calendar and directory services.

Police Employees Trained in Sitting

Filed at 1:08 p.m. EST

By The Associated Press

SEATTLE (AP) -- The Police Department didn't take the matter sitting down
after two employees slipped off their rolling desk chairs and fell on the floor.

Civilian employees in the department's fingerprint and photo unit were
ordered to undergo a training session on how to safely sit in a chair.

''Take hold of the arms and get control of the chair before sitting down,'' a
supervisor said in a recent memo.

About 26 employees were expected to attend the half-hour session Tuesday.

Department safety officer Patrick Sweeney said the chair-related injuries are
no laughing matter.

In two cases, chairs rolled out from under employees. A third employee hurt
her back when the adjustable seat dropped abruptly. One worker's injuries
kept her out of work.

''Some people know how to sit in a chair,'' while others need some
instruction, Sweeney said. He said he also planned to cover other common
office hazards, such as open cabinet drawers.
