KEN BEHRING SETTLES SEXUAL HARASSMENT LAWSUIT

     Seahawks Owner KEN BEHRING settled a sexual harassment
lawsuit brought against him by a former employee, PATRICIA
PARKER, according to the SEATTLE TIMES.  Although no details of
the settlement were released, Parker's attorney, JEFFREY LIPOW,
said earlier that Behring's attorneys had offered a settlement
"much, much bigger than $100,000."  Behring's lawyers claimed
Parker's attorneys tried to harass Behring into a large
settlement by filing highly sensitive testimony about Behring's
private life with the court.  The TIMES' John Simerman writes it
is "unclear" whether this "alleged" tactic played a part in the
outcome (SEATTLE TIMES, 8/13).
