SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina - Serbs eased their grip yesterday on U.N. peacekeepers, while at the same time tightening the squeeze on hard-pressed northwest Bosnia.
Bosnian Serbs free U.N. peacekeepers
Bosnian Serbs released 20 British and 33 Dutch peacekeepers, out of the 402 they were holding as insurance against further NATO air strikes.
The release of the 53 peacekeepers, who had been held in eastern Bosnia for more than a week, was a slight bow toward the international community by Bosnian Serbs.
While easing up slightly on the
United Nations, the Serbs pressed hard on Muslim-led government soldiers in Bihac and Velikha Kladusa in northwestern Bosnia.
Bosnian radio claimed that 25 people, 20 women and five children had been killed by shelling yesterday. There was no confirmation of the report. The radio said despite heavy shelling, there was no movement in frontlines.
The area had been largely quiet for several days. But Vellika Kindus, former headquarters of a renegade Muslim leader, was attacked again on Saturday and was reportedly close to falling to Serb forces and Muslim rebel troops.

Hectic holidays bring on headaches and hangovers
CHICAGO — By the 12th day of Christmas, the holidays brought to me: 12 last-minute errands; 11 chocolate bonbons; 10 squabbling relatives; nine perfume samples; eight cups of coffee; seven strings of blinking tree lights; six ounces of red wine; five hours of sleep; four walnut cheese balls; three whining youngsters; two smoke-filled rooms — and a headache you would not believe.
The Associated Press
Seymour Diamond would believe it. As executive director of the National Headache Foundation, he knows that the stress and altered-lifestyle patterns of the holidays are prime causes of severe headache.
"From Thanksgiving to New Year's, we see a greater incidence of tensiom type headaches and migraines," Diamond said. "At my private headache clinic in Chicago, we treat about 40 percent more patients than we would in a normal 40-day period; we're busy."
Family stresses and long lines in hot, noisy department stores are enough to trigger tension headaches even in people who aren't headache-prone.
Diamond recommends shopping early. Failing that, he said, "Practicing relaxation and stretching techniques, such as neck rolls and slow, deep breaths, is a good way to release built-up tension."
Altered sleep patterns also could cause headaches. Late-night parties can mean too little sleep, while time off can woo people into sleeping late, which contributes to头ache-causing carbon-dioxide buildup in the blood.
Tension headaches are one thing;
migraines are something else.
"Try to go to sleep and wake up the same time every day, whether you are going to work or not," Diamond said.
Avoid these things, Diamond said.
For migraine sufferers, the holidays are a minefield. A spritz of perfume at the cosmetics counter can trigger a migraine, so can the blinking lights of a Christmas tree or cigarette smoke at a New Year's Eve party.
Avoid these things, Diamond said. Food and drink can trigger a migraine as well. Doctors say culprits often contained chemical substances called tyramines. And tyramine-laden foods, such as chocolate, walnuts and aged cheeses, are everywhere.
Caffeine can set off a migraine, as can red wine.
Speaking of alcohol, the third category of holiday headache—the hangover — is completely avoidable: Don't drink.
Lost whale found in Delaware River
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — An injured right whale that took a wrong turn ended up in the Delaware River, swimming in slow circles as rescuers tried to steer it back toward the Atlantic Ocean yesterday.
The young mammal, which may have been separated from its mother, strayed north into Delaware Bay instead of moving south for winter.
The whale's head was bleeding from an apparent run-in with a boat during its 80-mile trek from the bay at Lewes, Del, to Philadelphia, where it was first spotted Saturday.
"or it could have been hit out in the ocean, possibly resulting in some disorientation," said Bob Schoelkopf, director of the Marine Mammal Stranding Unit in Brigantine, N.J.
The whale appeared to be lethargic and could be hungry, Schoelkopf said from a police boat. He said it appeared to be about a year old.
The whale was near the Philadelphia Navy Base and moving south.
"That's a good sign," Schoolkopf said. "If it continues moving in this direction, it could make it back to open water and possibly survive."
Officials discouraged would-be whale watchers, warning boat and helicopter operators they could face $25,000 fines, imprisonment and seizure of their vessels if they came closer than about a quarter mile.

Kansan Correspondents are the safety net of the Kansan. The program is scared for freshmen, sophomores juniors or transfer students who have an interest in journalism - whether as a major or just for a different experience. Correspondents are encouraged to write stories, shoot photographs or work with the Kansan's design department. In addition, weekly meetings are conducted in which guest speakers are brought in to discuss current issues and journalism careers. Correspondents can work at their own pace and under the direction of a Kansan editor. For those interested in journalism, this program is an excellent way to get an early start.
